BODY FOUND ON Durham Region Police say foul play is definitely suspected following the discovery early Sunday morning of the skeletal re- mains of a man near an isolated road on Scugog Island. The remains, in what Police described as an advanced state of decomposition were found in a field just off the Ghost Road, which connects the 9th and 10th Concessions on Scugog Island. The discovery was made by Island resident Jack Kane (see separate story on page 3 of the Star this week) The body was identified by Police as that of Alfred Meitner, 35, hu Whitby, who has been reported missing for about six weeks. A post mortem was carried out on Monday, but Police said further tests will be carried out this week.

Teachers, librarians and counsellors at the province's 22 community colleges have been on strike for two weeks. About 25 teachers from Dur- ham College joined teachers from the four Metro-area colleg- es to rally outside education ministry offices in downtown Toronto on Thursday. Teachers want to maintain their sick leave plan, gain job security and bring wages upto a level between that of high school and university teachers, said Ginny Colling, a member of the communications committee at Durham College. Ms. Colling said negotiations between the union and the Council of Regents, which rep- resents management at the col- leges, broke down because of the wage issue. "The Council of Regents have said that all of their dollars are on the table," Ms. Colling said. She agreed that this may be the case, because the provincially- funded college system has been underfunded by the Liberal government. "The Council of Regents doesn't seem to be willing to ne- gotiate," Ms. Colling said. "They could move on job securi- ty and sick leave without gov- ernment funds. If there is work on these two issues, a settle- ment could be worked out." Ms. Colling said the wage is- sue has been really "played up" in the media, but it is the least important issue to the teachers. What the teachers are really concerned about is maintaining their sick leave plan, she said. "We are not demanding im- proved sick leave," she said.

Oct. 31) A spokesam for the Dur- ham Regional Police said every available officer and all vehicles will be on patrol in 26 Division which takes in Scugog, Brock and Uxbridge Townships. And they won't take it too kindly if the Halloween pranks start to get out of hand. In years past, the Police have used a "paddy wagon" to cool off trouble makers in the northern Townships. The Star would urge all mo- torists to use extra caution when driving the streets of Scu- gog tonight. Please watch out for the youngsters and let's have a safe Halloween.
