If there is sufficient interest after this Masked thieves drop cigarettes and leave in a cloud of smoke Thieves hoping to fill their trunk with cigarettes from Port Perry IGA left almost empty handed after being caught in the act by a store employee. Dan Martin and his assis- tant were working in the IGA bakery about 4 a.m. when they heard the sound of breaking glass from somewhere in the store. When Mr. Martin looked out to investigate he saw the night cleaner scrubbing floors with a motorized machine, which was making a lot of noise. He then looked towards the front door and saw one man standing just inside the smashed glass of the front door, another in front of the courtesy counter and a third man behind the counter. All three were wearing bandanas over the lower part of their faces. Mr. Martin yelled at the thieves, and two ran from the store immediately. The third man, who was still behind the counter moved out slowly and stood there until Mr. Martin got about 10 feet away, before turning and run- ning off to a waiting car. The car, a blue Corsica, iden- tified as stolen vehicle, was seen speeding out of the IGA parking lot with its lights out and heading towards 7A high- way. It then made a left turn towards the causeway. When the Star spoke with manager Jim Grieve Thursday morning he said there were five people in the car, which had parked in front of the doors and lifted the trunk lid. The thieves then proceeded to smash the door glass with a sledge hammer, causing the loud explosion which caught Mr. Martin's attention. Mr. Grieve said that it would appear that the thieves had only time to grab about four or five packs of cigarettes before being startled by Mr. Martin, who was able to give a good description of the three men who entered the store. He estimated it would only take between one and two minutes to clean out the store of all their cigarettes with the method they were using. According to Durham Reg- ional Police there have been no arrests in the case. Quality of education From Page 15 affect the same education to keep taxes in line by cutting needed programs. Where were all these noble thoughts at contract time (in this highly recessionary period) when the teachers thought only of them- selves in their wage demands. The teachers are running around like Chicken Little saying the sky is falling (and education is going to suffer). Well here is one taxpayer who hopes the fox gets the chicken before the chicken gets to the king (taxpayer). The following quote is from a letter sent to me by a person (who started a career as a teacher and then changed). "As so clearly demonstrated by the Conservative Govern- ment's establishment of com- munity colleges, high schools are primarily intended to keep voungsters in school and one of the reasons is to minimize unemployment rates - they mass produce diplomas and produce the same unqualified product as does General Motors - looks okay but no substance." There is something very wrong with a system that con- dones such an attitude and policy direction. We need an education standard for the entire country not just one province and we need to improve that standard, not keep lowering it. "With sincere apologies to the many truly dedicated and genuinely concerned teachers who really do care about the quality of our education sys- tem and the sad state that it has been allowed to deterio- rate to."
