"Scugog's Community Newspaper of Choice " These long and lean touring bicycles attracted a lot of double takes on Friday as a group of four German cyclists passed through Port Perry on their way across North America. ModJacks win, lose On Monday July 15, the Pee Wee Mojacks, sponsored by Mother Jacksons visited East Gwillimbury. East Gwillimbury's bats took an early 9-0 lead after one ning. Port Perry chipped away by scoring three runs in the second inning, four more in the third, two runs in the fifth and two in the sixth. The tying run was on third base with two out when Matt Kay came to bat. Matt contacted the ball and it appeared that his long hit to left field as going to score the tying run but unfortunately East Gwillimbury made a tremendous catch and Port Perry lost by one run. Final score was 12-11. Matt Kay and Bill Zaparanuik shared the pitching. Matt struck out four and Bill struck out five. They allowed nine hits between them. Port had ten hits. Jeremy Geer had two singles, Craig Laird one single, Ian Shrigley two singles, Bill Zaparanuik one single, Matt Kay two singles, Brad Morton one single, Jason Haliburton one home run ( on a bunt- some running speed Jason) and called - up Squirt Legion player Doug Short contributed with a single. _single, GRAND OPENING SPECIAL - $1199" installed* Dashwood is pleased to anounce the Grand Opening of our newest Window and Door Centre.

Traces of dioxin were detected in four locations on Lake Ontario and Lake Superior, the Ministry of the Environment announced with the release of the 1991 Guide to Eating Ontario Sport Fish. Recently improved analytical techniques have enabled ministry laboratories to test for 17 different toxic isomers of dioxins and dibenzofurans. Significant levels of some of these dioxins were discovered in samples from the following locations: Lake Ontario: Jordan Harbour, for all tested sizes of lake trout; and the Credit River mouth for all tested sizes of lake trout and brown trout. Lake Superior: Peninsula Har- bour and Jackfish Bay, for lake trout greater than 55 cm (22 in- ches) in size. A number of other Great Lakes and inland locations were monitored but their dioxin and dibenzofuran levels were found to be no higher than one to six parts per trillion (ppt). The ministry places restrictions only on those fish whose dioxin level exceeds 20 ppt. The ministry also announced that long-term monitoring of Great Lakes locations has in- dicated declining levels of bann- ed substances such as PCBs and mirex. In some areas of Lake On- tario, for example, declining levels of these substances have enabled the ministry to remove all restrictions on the consump- tion of chinook salmon, coho salmon and rainbow trout up to 75 cm (30 inches). These and other findings are contained in the Guide to Eating Ontario Sport Fish. The annual guide provides anglers and con- sumers with up-to-date informa- tion on recommended levels of consumption of sport fish from lakes and rivers throughout On- tario and many locations on the Great Lakes and their connectin channels. ; Carried out in conjunction with the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Ontario sport fish monitoring program is the most extensive of its kind. The con- sumption guidelines are based on Canadian federal standards, and are the most thorough of any jurisdiction in North America. Fish are collected and sent to the Ministry of the Environment laboratories where they are analysed for up to 60 different substances, including mercury, PCBs, mirex and DDT. Consumption advisories in the 1991 guide are based on the test results for only the most toxic isomer of dioxin, known as 2,3,7,8-TCDD, which has been detected in some Great Lakes fish since 1981. The ministry is cur- rently reviewing the incorpora- tion of results for other dioxins and dibenzofurans, expressed as toxic equivalents of 2,3,7,8-TCDD, into future advisories. If this ap- proach is taken, then there could be further consumption restric- tions advised at the four locations listed above. In the meantime, the ministry advises that as a precautionary measure, women of childbearing age and children under 15 should not consume these fish. Other categories of the population should limit their consumption of these fish to one or two meals per month. The source of dioxins in Lake Superior is considered to be the effluent from pulp and paper mills. In Lake Ontario, the Love Canal area of Niagara Falls, New York is considered to be the ma- jor dioxin source. One recent ministry study found that small samples of young fish collected in Cayuga Creek contained far lower concentra- tions of 2,3,7,8-TCDD than com- parable samples from 1981. A similar study in Niagara-on-the- Traces of dioxin detected in some Great Lake's fish Lake uncovered no measurable traces of dioxin in the young fish sampled.

It will soon be available at Brewer's Retail and LCBO outlets. Mites lose close game to Bramalea Our 9-10 yr. mites travelled to Bramalea on July 21st to face the formidable Bramalea squad that have yet to lose a game this season. Our team was short hand- ed by 4 of our regulars but we were bolstered by our call-ups Chris Monsma, Russell Brown and Braden Tarbotton from the house league. In the first game of the doubleheader, fans were treated to an outstanding pitching duel as our Chris Jones went head to head with the Bramalea pitching ace. When the dust had settled both pitchers had tossed no hittters with the Bramalea pitcher having 17 strike outs and Chris k'd 14 of 20 batters faced. Credit goes to Darryl Dalton making his first catching appearance as he receiv- ed well and also gunned down one runner at second. Mark Richard- son made a good grab on a liner to second base as well. Unfor- tunately, Bramalea got the only run needed for a 1-0 victory on a passed ball and a close play at home plate. Our team had several chances to tie the score but unfor- tunately several disputed umpire decisions didn't go our way. In the second game of this hot double header our team wasn't able to maintain their concentra- tion due to the heat from the weatherman and from the strong pitching of Bramalea's number two hurler. Bramalea won' this one 11-2 - though, to our team's credit, they broke up the no-hitter on catcher Scott Cunningham's single in the fifth inning and push- ed across two scores by Michael Versage and Ryan McQuade on Chris Jones' sacrifice fly in the final inning. Ryan did the bulk of the pitching for Port and had 5 strike outs. Some positin juggling saw Aaron Chambers play at first base and Mark Richardson at se- cond. Justin Bigglestone and our call-ups patrolled the pastures. Next game is 6:30 p.m. July 23 on Water Street South Diamond. See you there. Wildlife Management strategy recommended Natural Resources Minister Bud Wildman has recently re- leased a report which recom- mends a wildlife management and protection strategy for On- tario. The Wildlife Working Group, appointed in 1989 by the previ- ous government, recommends that Ontario adopt an €cosys- tem approach to managing wildlife resources. An ecosystem approach rec- ognizes that all life is connect- ed and that human activity which affects one part of the natural world should not be considered in isolation from its effect on others. The group recommends that this goal be attained by meet- ing four objectives: maintain- ing biodiversity; rehabilitating degraded ecosystems; treating all wildlife in a responsible and respectful manner; and attain- ing widespread appreciation of the importance of wildlife and healthy ecosystems. Mr. Wildman said he is in- terested in public input on these recommendations. The report, entitled Looking Ahead: A Wild Life Strate for Ontario, is available for public comment for 90 days. The Ministry of Natural Re- sources will also host public meetings across the province during September and Octo- ber, and member of the public may complete a questionnaire on the Peperd which will be available shortly. "We are at the cross-roads of wildlife management and pro- tection in Ontario. It is impor- tant that we make use of every opportunity to enhance our wildlife resources now and in the future," Mr. Wildman said, Copies of the report may be obtained from the MNR Public Information Centre, Room 1640, 99 Wellesley St. West, Toronto, M7A 1WS3; telephone: (416) 965-4251.
