Little vandalism mars Hallowe'n this year From all indication, it was a good Hallowe'en for all. While most kids around Port Perry and district man- aged to get their limit of goodies (and a bit more), incidents of vandalism, dis-' turbances and the dreaded Hallowe'en malicious dam- age of past years failed to materialize this year. . "We were shocked," said . an Ontario Provincial Police spokesman, referring to the relatively quiet Friday night. "We could have gone to sleep here and it wouldn't have made any difference. It was no problem at all." : The Whitby detachment's precautions for Port Perry and district were obviously preparations for the worst, .About 20 police and auxiliary police were on patrol both in Port Perry and surrounding * hamlets, and vehicles in- cluded a number of black ,and white units as well as a police van. "There was an egg or two, but that's just about all." Milfoil weed no problem Milfoil Weed, the Eurasian water plant that is threaten- ing to choke the life out of the Kawartha Lakes near Peter- borough, appears not to be a problem in Lake Scugog. A ministry of environment spokesman said Friday that she is not aware of similar problems in Lake Scugog. Unknown in the area until 1970, the weed has in five short years managed to get-a stranglehold on nearly 20,000 acres of prime recreational - waters. The weed thrives in water 10 to 15 feet deep with a muddy bottom and warm water rich in minerals. Residents of three town- "ships have formed the Ka- wartha Lakes Improvement Committee -to combat the weed and the provincial gov- ernment has itself been con- ducting a pilot program studying the most effective and efficient means of elim- inating the weed. University of Guelph re- searchers have been called in to examine means of util- izing the more than 2,000 tons of the weed harvested from lake bottoms by the environ- ment ministry, the spokes- man said, but have had i Church PORT PERRY CHARGE Canada Rev.

The main problem is the high water and calcium con- tent of the: plant, which makes it unsuitable as a : livestock feed despite its high mineral content, and also renders the Milfoil use- less for composting. This year's research pro- gram marks the end of the - ministry's intense concen- tration on particular lakes, the spokesman said, The program had centred on specific lakes to accent any adverse environmental effects arising from the re- moval of large quantities of the material. Next year the research work will centre on areas where the weed growth is a persistent problem.
