6 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Wednesday, October 15, 1986 Four facing charges after Durham Police pursue speeding car Four persons, including two juveniles, were charged by Durham Police in connection with a stuicn automobile from the Beaverton area. But it took a police chase and road-block before the arrests could be made. According to a Police spokesman, the incident began late Saturday afternoon, when a brown 1979 Pon- tiac was spotted travelling at high rates of speed on Highway 12 just south of Greenbank. The car was followed by a Regional cruiser with lights and - siren on to Concession 9 where the driver turned west. The pursuit at high speeds con- tinued to Regional Road 23 where a police road-block had been set up. Charged with theft, possession of stolen property, dangerous driving and failure to stop for police is 19 year old Brian J. Lemaire of Bancroft. Jeffery R. Thompson, 19, also of Bancroft has been charged with possession of stolen property, while the two youthful offenders, one from Bancroft, the other from Beaverton, have also been charged with posses- sion of stolen property. YOUTH CHARGED In an un-related incident October 11, police have charged a 16 year old Scarborough youth with auto theft and failing to remain at the scene of an accident. Regional Police say a Chev truck was reported stolen October 11 from Williams Point Road. It was recovered in the ditch on Regional Road 57 near Highway 7A the next day. The charges were laid on Oc- tober 13. The identify of the 16 year old can- not be made public because he is a youthful offender. Nestleton-Caesarea News by Mabel Cawker An incredible time of year ... Thanksgiving - a time for reflection ' ... a wondrous time of year when family and friends get together to celebrate. The harvest is in ... safe- ly stored for the winter. What bet- ter way to give thanks than to get together in a festive mood with the traditional meal with loved ones and the planning and hopes of tomorrow. We trust each one of us is truly thankful for the rich abundance we have. Thanksgiving is a day ap- pointed for giving thanks for His Chatterbox (continued) Rochester, 1 think, regards Doug as Mr. No. Everytime he goes near the bird's cage, Rochester hisses and squawks and tries to escape.

MONOPOLY UPDATE There's still a few spaces to be filled around the game tables for the Great Scugog Monopoly Championship on November 1st. By Thursday morning I had 16 people signed up for the tourna- ment. By the time you read this, the list might be filled up ---- but then again, it might not. Give me a call at 985-7383 if you want a chance at winning the $100 cash prize. And yes, we've booked a spot - for the championship. The preliminary round will be held at Town Hall 1873 on November 1st. The championship round will be held at the back room of Emiel's Place on November 8th. 'Both games start sharply at high noon, so it's a good idea for all players to show up around 11:30 a.m. "Knott's Landing." Landing." " | =m Viewpoint (From page 5) CANADIAN CONTACT CHCH Television in Hamilton declined to televise the opening game at the Gardens last Thursday night between the defending Stanley Cup champion Montreal Canadiens and the up and coming Toronto Maple Leafs. The reason? The station didn't want to bump Here we had the opening game of another hockey season between two teams whose rivalry going back decades is or should be part of our national heritage, and a TV station says '"'uh-uh' because of "Knott's If there is one thing that most Canadians agree on, it is that hockey is the national sport, a passionate pastime in this land. And if two teams define this pas- sion, they are the Leafs and the Canadiens. But obviously, 'Knott's Landing," a prime time soap complete with all kinds of redeeming features like adultry, murder and assorted other socially valuable themes set somewhere in sunny California, pays the freight when it comes to TV ad revenues. So you can hardly blame CHCH for not wanting to bump it from the air-waves in favour of a silly old hockey game. May the ghost of Foster Hewitt haunt the corridors of TV station CHCH in Hamilton.

The Churches A wonderful attendance for the Thanksgiving Service at the Caesarea Community Church on Sunday morning at 11:00 a.m. Guest speaker was Jerry Jonkheer and his topic "Abraham's Walk With God" ... a fine message. A trio composed of Esther Maschke, Kathy Tromans and Jerry Jonkheer sand harmoniously 'Great Is Thy * Faithfulness' and the children sang two numbesr accompanied by Anne Maschke on the piano. Anne and Kathleen played for the hymns - a piano and organ duo. We pray for a speedy recovery for Rev. Dr. W.H. Crawford who is presently a patient in Port Perry Memorial Hospital recovering from major surgery. 'Our best wishes." The Nestleton Presbyterian Thanksgiving Service was held at 10:00 a.m. with Rev. Fred Swann presenting a fine sermon on "Being Phonies Area residents are warned to look out for not one, but two phony can- vassers who have been using false names to solicit funds for organiza- tions they do not represent. Two weeks ago the Star ran a story warning local churches not to donate funds or goods to a woman posing as a representative from the Durham Region Distress Centre. Last week the Star learned that a woman using a different name has been phone soliciting for the Scugog Crisis Centre. As co-ordinator Jeannette Ross points out, the Crisis Centre does not and has never solicited individuals for funds. But sometime over the weekend (October 5 and 6), a woman using the name 'Holly Nelson' phoned at least one person in Oshawa sup- posedly to solicit funds for the Crisis Centre. She phoned the Oshawa resident twice, Mr. Ross says. The first time she called asking for money ---- the second time, she attempted to ar- range a time for her to pick the money up from the person's home. Suspicious, the Oshawa resident phoned the Scugog Crisis Centre Monday morning as well as police. Mrs. Ross says she has never heard of 'Holly Nelson' and has no volunteer working for the Crisis Centre under that name Thankful for all we enjoy."" Psalm 34 was read in unison and Scripture II Corinthians, Ch. 9. A vocal duet by Bernice Mairs and Mabel Cawker entitled, "He Touched Me", was enjoyed by all. Joyce Taylor accompanied on the organ. A tasteful arrangement for "Harvest Home' added much to this very fine Thanksgiving celebration. Reg Hughes and son Donny were greeters at Nestleton United Church on Sunday morning at 11:15 a.m. Rev. Dale Davis delivered a strong sermon on "Giving With Thanks" - with Robert Mairs reading the scripture Deuteronomy 32: 7-14 and Dave in this photo are Doug Walton, Zone F com- mander, Rev. Alfred Woolcock, district padre; and District commander Paul Hycha. The com- memorative plaque is mounted on the wall of the ous time of year Mark 8: 1-9. The Junior choir sang "A Child's Thanksgiving" with Bet- ty Headon pianist and Janice MacKenzie leading. An enjoyable number with the children's voices blending nicely. The minister kept the young fry interested and on their toes with his timely theme. An attractive assortment of flowers, fruit and vegetables for the Thanksgiving celebration enhanced the Sanctuary.
