Be i i. A Crime victims' identities not to be made public in Durham Region Durham Region Police will no longer be making public the names of most crime victims. Durham joins other forces in Ontario, including Metro, in not identifying publicly crime victims because of the new Mu- nicipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. Police forces feel they would be contravening this new Act if they make public the names and addresses of crime victims, except in certain in- stances. A Durham Police spokes- man said last week some of the exceptions include the names of murder victims, and when the Police feel there is a "compelling reason" to make the names pub- lic. The names of victims (killed or injured in vehicle acci- dents) will also continue to be made public. The location where a crime was committed will be made public, including business and shops, said the spokesman. Manslaughter charge laid Durham Region Police have charged a 37-year old Oshawa man with manslaugh- ter in connection with the death of his 31-year old wife. Police were called to a resi- dence on Traddles Ave., at 4:00 AMonJanuary 3. A woman identified as Diane Carter was taken to The purchase and use of cut Christmas trees each year is NOT a depletion of a natural resource, according to the Canadian Garden Council. Virtually all of the trees cut for Christmas in Canada are purpose-grown on plantations and are considered a crop like the many other farm products. In many cases, Christmas trees are grown on land that would otherwise be out of production because of an over supply of many farm commodities. However, what happens to your Christmas tree once it is discard- ed, says the Canadian Garden Council, is another matter to which little attention has been paid. Some cities have begun special collections for Christmas trees. Of those which have, many do not put the trees to a special use, such as chipping them into a long-lasting mulch for use along pathways in parks, and playgrounds. While citizens can get involved in urging their municipal officials to make good use of the old Christmas trees, a first priority Oshawa General Hospital and pronounced dead. Autopsy tests revealed she | had died from a brain hemmo- rhage caused by a blow to the right side of the head. An investigation by Police resulted in the manslaughter charge against David Alfred Carter of the same address. Recycle Christmas trees should be homeowners making use of their own, and their neighbours' trees. If you have new landscaping, planted last spring or fall, branches cut from your Christmas tree will make an excellent protective covering for the young plants. A covering of pine boughs will certainly look much nicer than the ugly burlap now so often used by highway departments and others. If you or a neighbour owns a garden mulcher, run the Christmas trees through it and use the resultant mulch on the beds around your evergreen plan- tings next spring. If you dislike the use of salt on icy sidewalks, try shredded pine needles. Finally, suggests the Canadian Garden Council, for the balance of the winter, consider setting up the tree in your back garden, on which suet and other goodies for the birds are tied. You'll attract interesting birds and have double use out of the tree--triple use, if you then put it through a mulcher come spring, and use the resul- tant mulch in a garden!
