Dental program accreditation The Durham College Dental Assistant and Dental Hygiene pro- grams have received national ac- creditation status from the Cana- dian Dental Association. Accreditation is granted for a five year period. In applying for accreditation the College submitted a detailed report on the two programs, their cur- riculum, personnel, facilities and resources. The report was studied by the C.D.A. Council on Education and Accreditation, which then visited the College to tour the facilities and interview staff and students over a three day period. "Accreditation is an important ~ facet of dental health programs, as it ensures the parameters of academic and clinical experience provided to the student. All Com- munity College and University Den- tal Programs are reviewed for ac- -creditation status to encourage specific standards of education 'throughout Canada' said Helga Cuddy, Department Head. When Dental Hygiene students apply to the Royal College of Den- tal Surgeons for licensing, the C.D.A. accreditation exempts them from the written examination. There are 75 students currently enrolled in the dental programs at Durham College. © = = o ~~ = 150 Water St. Port Perry CLIP & SAVE COUPON 30 Large Pizza 4% X-Large Pizza -- ONE COUPON PER PIZZA -- FREE DELIVERY IN PORT PERRY Open to 4 AM.

JP AS A A SS A 4 WS 4 -- -- A eu ound'N'Abou OSHAWA Oshawa"s bid to relocate a new regional headquarters building on lands at Mary and Bond Streets might have run into re-zoning problems. The re-zoning bid for the 9.3 acre site from industrial to com- mercial passed its first major hurdle last week through a public plan- ning committee meeting without question and planning staff must now prepare a recommendation for the committee. The land is presently zoned industrial and a change of zoning to commercial would allow for the construction of a hotel and other commercial ventures. But this same re-zoning change might block the construction of the $8 million headquarters centre Oshawa is at- tempting to persuade the region to build there Planning committec chairman Jack Wiley surprised by the question, admitting he does not know if the zo: change will create a problem. He added staff will check and make any changes necessary to ensure the headquarters plans are not derailed. WHITBY Two Whitby firefighters, who rescued a 10-year old girl from a house fire that killed her two-year old sister, have been awarded Canada's Medal of Bravery. Donald Ferguson, of Whitby and Donald Murdock, of Port Perry, received the medals, awarded for acts of bravery and hazardous con- ditions, from Governor-General Madame Jeanne Sauve during ceremonies held in Ottawa. The duo were among 41 Canadians - honoured. Upon arrival at the scene of the blaze at the corner of Rossland Road and Brock Streets, on March 29, 1985, the two firefighters were told there were two girls still inside the burning home. The men went inside, Ferguson heading down a smoke-filled corgidor following the sounds of cries from 10-year old Leighanne Po. lvaterra, a stu- dent of Meadowcrest Public School in Brooklin. After feeling his way along the passage, as heavy smoke made it impossible to see, he located the girl in her bedroom. Murdock met Ferguson and the girl and all three were crossing the kitchen, when a fireball knocked down Ferguson and the girl, burning both. Murdock then picked up the child and took her outside. Despite his severely burned hands, Ferguson went back inside and located two-year old Angela Cassandra Porter-Salvaterra in her crib. He carried her outside where other firefighters administered cardiopulmonary resuscitation in vain. They were unable to revive her. Ferguson suffered second-degree burns to his hands and was unable to work for three weeks. Leighanne spent over two months in the Oshawa General Hospital Burn Unit. COURTICE Newcastle council has given its approval for the construction of a 51 lot subdivision in North Courtice. The proposal for the subdivision, north of Pebblestone Road bet- ween Tooley's and Trull's Roads, now must go to the Durham Region level where it must be approved by committees and members of council. The town's approval will be forwarded with the stipulation that people who purchase the homes must be warned the public school board has concerns regarding busing students from such rural residential developments. The Northumberland and Newcastle Board of Education has already stated students from this development would be bused to schools only "if there was room" on buses which serve that area. BROCK re Regional council is giving its backing to a bid to bring an inter- national plowing match to Brock Township. In a 24-2 vote, council has decided to support Durham Mara and Rama Plowmen's Association in its bid to have the 1990 International Plowing Match held in Brock. Brock Mayor, Allan McPhail explained regional support carries a $50,000 price tag for Durham as the region would have to provide that amount of money for seed to help get the match organized. McPhail said this figure would be payable at $5,000 next year; $15,000 in 1988 and $30,000 in 1989. The Ontario Plowmen's Associa- tion would also be providing $50,000 towards the event. The mayor explained the region would be paid back from gate receipts after the association received its money. Although the majority of councillors supported the proposal, Jim Witty of Ajax, chairman of the finance committee, said the interest the region would be losing for 18 months would amount to some $6,000. Oshawa's Ed Kolodzie, who also voted against giving support, echoed Witty's thoughts adding that to support the match financially would lead to more groups approaching the region for money. The local plowmen, who are up against several other plowmen's groups in the competition will find out if they are successful in their bid in mid-February. OSHAWA The Oshawa Sydenham Museum is portraying the spirit of Christmas past at its three museum buildings in Oshawa: Henry House, Robinson House and Guy House.
