ee ---------------------- Doreen Kendall seeks t A back-to-basics approach is + - ---- Ee the promise of Doreen Kendall, YG candidate for Scugog public school trustee in this fall's municipal election. Mrs. Kendall, a long-time Scugog resident, announced her intention to challenge Incumbent Bobbie Drew last week; she said she had arrived at the decision to run after much consideration. "I am concerned about the way the education process is going," she said, explaining that the Durham Region Board of Education spends freely on special projects but does not concentrate fundamentals.

They can't tell time, "We have all kinds of special and they can't add without a Police seek new leads in 1986 hit-and-run fatality The emergence of new evidence has led Durham Regional Police to reopen their investigation of a fatal hit-and-run case that dates back eight years. Police announced last week they are pursuing leads and seeking more information from the public in the death of Dennis Terech, a 23-year-old cyclist who was run down and left injured on an Oshawa street in 1986. "As the results of new leads which have been developed, the investigation has been reopened," Durham Regional Polis Staff Sgt. Sandy Ryrie said in a media release last week. Mr. Terech was riding his bike north on Park Rd. N. in Oshawa around 1:30 a.m. July 26, 1986 when he was struck by a vehicle and left lying in the roadway, according to police. He was eventually found and taken to Oshawa General Hospital, but died the next day of severe head injuries. Police are asking anyone with information about the incident to call Durham Regional Police at 579-1520, ext. 383, or Crime Stoppers at 436-8477. rustee seat computer." Mrs. Kendall said she has been active with young people throughout her time in the area, and has become distressed over what she sees as a lack of focus in curriculum and classroom activities. "Boards have to get back to requiring that teachers teach, and not entertain," she said. "I want to take some common sense down there." She cites administrative experience in her capacity as current chair and charter member of the board of directors at Central Seven, the local community living association for the developmentally handicapped: "We don't run deficits." Mrs. Kendall added that she will be a strong voice for the township on a board which is often perceived as being dominated by the more populous southern municipalities in the region. "I really believe this is just something I have to do," she said. "The only way I can make a difference is if I try." She promised to be accessible to her constituents and listen to their concerns if she is elected. "Everyone knows me well enough to know they can phone me up and say, 'Doreen, can you help me with this'," she said. Mrs. Kendall lives on Regional Rd. 21 at RR 4 Port Perry with her husband Larry. She's been a resident of the township for 32 years. She is challenging incumbent Bobbie Drew, and candidate Bob Brooks.

"There are many reasons why someone chooses to preplan a funeral. Prearrangement allows people to express prefer- ences for their own funeral service and helps assure their wishes will be met. Also, it takes the burden off the family. Loved ones aren't faced with having to make decisions at a difficult time. The choices have already been made. It's a simple gesture that makes all the difference."

O'RIORDAN Owner/Manager/Funeral Director Res: 985-0608 216 Queen Street Port Perry CAREER N ¥ or Tut ' By Kelly Lown Port Perry Star Recent complaints over dogs barking and wandering loose have forced the township to con- sider reviewing its dog control bylaw. The bylaw, which was passed in 1990, will be up for revision when council reconvenes this month. Many dog owners may not un- derstand their full responsibili- ty when it comes to their pet, but dog owners are bound by certain provisions and regula- tions under this bylaw, regard- ing control of their dogs. Every dog owner in the town- ship must register their dog with the license issuer, and its dog tags must be worn. Dog owners must control their animal from howling or barking persistently; while in control of the dog not allow it to defecate or urinate on property belonging to anyone else; and may not allow the dog to run at large within the township lim- its. Any dog found to be running at large can be taken to the Ani- mal Control Officer, where it will be impounded. Families have three days to reclaim their dog or # may be sold or de- stroyed. Offences regarding unli- cenced animals or animals uri- nating on other property are subject to a $50 fine. All other contraventions of provisions of the bylaw carry fines between $100 and $2000. Incidents in which animals attack or bite a person fall un- der the Dog Owners' Liability Act, which states owners of dogs are liable for damages resulting from a bite or attack by the dog on another person or domestic animal. The owner's knowledge of the event is not a necessity. When a dog attacks someone who is committing an unlawful act, the owner is, in most cases, not liable. If the dog is found to have at- tacked a person or a domestic animal, the court may order the dog destroyed or steps may be taken to have the animal more effectively controlled. Several considerations, in- cluding the past and present temperament of the dog, the se- riousness of the injuries, the cir- cumstances surrounding the at- tack, the improbability of a re- peat attack, the dog's physical potential for inflicting harm and precautions taken by the owner will all be considered.
