14 The Canadian Statesman. Bowmanville, July 19,1989 United Way Case Study Thanks to your United Way donation, our agencies can provide a needed service in our community. Here's one example of how the United Winy helps the most. Northern Pike are Threat to Kawartha Fisheries 4 In elementary school, Rob was known as a troublemaker troublemaker by his teachers. He was bright, alert and very outgoing. outgoing. His teachers couldn't get through to him - he didn't fit in and they didn't understand why. Rob spent a great deal of time battling with his mother mother and teachers. He was a product of a middle-class broken home. Both Rob and his mother had been victims of severe physical abuse. Mother was a hardworking woman and found it difficult to keep up with things. Rob began to have more and more free time on his hands. When alcohol and drugs took control of his life at fourteen, things went from bad to worse. Conditions at home with mother deteriorated deteriorated to the point that nothing nothing worked. Finally his mother, thoroughly exasperated, exasperated, tossed Rob's belongings belongings on the front porch. With mother and the school system ready to give up on him, Rob had nowhere to go, except, that is, the Eastview Boys' and Girls' club (A United Way Agency.) Rob had been dropping by the boys' and girls' club for a number of years, but seldom participated in anything that involved any type of structure. He was defiant towards towards everything always telling people 'where to go'. One day he was gently persuaded persuaded to play in a pick up basketball game. Within minutes we all discovered strengths in Rob which none of us had even suspected. He was co-operative, enthusiastic, enthusiastic, and instantly became a team leader. With everything else around him going sour, he began to show up on a regular regular basis. Rob began volunteering volunteering and assisting staff with various activities. He began to develop better relationships relationships with his peers and, most importantly, he gained self-confidence. Sure he had some difficulties, but at least he was able to talk to someone he trusted -- someone someone who cared. The boys' and girls' club became his home away from home. Goodyear Tournament From Page 11 Alec Hamill, Annie and Arthur Mayall of Whitby had a big score of 21 plus 6 in the third game to give them a total of 48 plus 6, just enough to nose out Bob and Betty Cameron with Scotty Boyle of Bowmanville who totalled 46 plus 7 including including a win of 21 plus 7 in the second game. Cameron was the most successful of the local bowlers though Woods also had two wins with a score of 45. There was a tie for high 1-game winner when Ken and Ella Dawson with June Hurst and Dean and Wilma McLaughlin with Bill Hurst, all from Oshawa, had a total of 42 but Dawson, with 41 against, was declared the winner as McLaughlin's opponents opponents reached 44. All competitors were high in their praises of the refreshments refreshments provided by the ladies of the Bowmanville club before the game and in the lunch and tea intervals, the competent control of the tournament by drawmis- tress Doris Wollstein and the excellent condition of the greens so lovingly tended by Lloyd Woods and his groundsmen. A great day was had by all including lots of spectators, spectators, among whom was the writer who nad a most interesting interesting conversation with Mr. Walton Pascoe, a former lawn bowler at our club and a retired employee of Goodyear Goodyear in Bowmanville. It was hoped that Walton with his keen interest in local history would be able to say that he was still in touch with some of the Bowmanville players who had won the trophy in 1925, 1931, 1934 and 1935. Although he remembered the occupations of most of them (the tournaments were played by teams of four men in those days), he reluctantly reluctantly came to the conclusion that none of them was still alive. Too bad! As a social footnote, some 20 members of our club were happy to visit their friends at tne Oshawa Lawn Bowling Bowling Club on July 7. In the single 12-end game that was played, Doris wollstein was vice on the winning team while Oscar Wollstein skipped the third place team. Bob Cameron and Fred Wilmot won minor prizes. Wo arc grateful to our fellow bowlers in Oshawa for their hospitality hospitality which included delicious refreshments and hope wo can entertain tlmm soon. Norm Smith Boys' and girls' club programs programs fulfill an important need in the lives of our youths today -- the need to be useful; the need to take a challenge and see it through; most importantly, the need for friendship. Rob has just completed high school and is looking forward to post-secondary education next fall. Things have turned around for Rob and he is feeling great about himself. Without your United Way contributions, the Eastview Boys' and Girls' Club (A United Way Agency) could not continue to provide an environment for the youth in our community to find friendship and a need to feel useful and challenged.

Northern pike have recently recently become established in Canal Lake and are now only one lake away from Balsam Lake and a downstream downstream expansion to the rest of the Kawartha Lakes. The invasion of pike poses poses a serious threat to the existing existing muskellunge, walleye, and bass fisheries in the Kawartha Lakes. Northern pike spawn early early in the spring, and younger younger pike tern from Lake Simcoe. It is possible, however, that anglers anglers released live pike caught in other waters into Canal Lake. Anglers should be aware that it is prohibited prohibited to transfer live northern pike through the liftlocks at Kirkfield. The liftlocks are the last remaining upstream barrier to the expansion of pike to the Kawartha Lakes. The Ministry of Natural Resources is investigating several means of preventing the further spread of northern northern pike, including acoustic barriers at Kirkfield, and a ram to reduce the num- r of pike jn Canal Lake. Reports from anglers indicate indicate the pike may nave already already entered Mitchell and Balsam Lakes although this has not been confirmed. Anglers Anglers can assist by keeping any northern pike caucht in Mitchell or Balsam Lakes and then notifying the Ministry Ministry of Natural Resources at the address or telephone number given below. Northern pike may be distinguished from muskellunge muskellunge by the following characteristics: characteristics: Northern Pike: Pattern of light spots on a dark ground coat; cheek fully scaled; upper half of operculum only scaled; underside of lower jaw pierced with 5 pores on each side.

Northern pike have a 2-3 year generation time, shorter shorter than the 4-6 years required required for muskellunge to reach maturity. Northern pike of all ages are voracious feeders and will feed on the forage fishes currently available available to muskellunge, walleye, walleye, and bass.
