Damage to the vehicle included a smashed windshield and passenger window, dash and a broken ignition. a Police were also called to another Queen St. residence shortly after 1 a.m. on June 23 after thieves attempted to take a 1987 Buick. The owner awoke after hearing a horn and upon looking outside, saw three youths around her vehicle. Two of the youths were inside her vehicle and were attempting to break the igni- tion, police said. The woman went back inside her home to call police and when she returned the youths were gone, police say. A search for the trio was held but nothing was found, add police. The suspects are described as white males between the ages of 16 and 17. One is reported to have been wearing a white T-shirt while the other had a beige top on. The third youth is described as wearing a black-hooded sweatshirt. The right signal arm and ignition- switch damage to the Buick is estimated to be worth approximately $200. Q Thieves also attempted to steal a 1985 Volkswagen Golf from a Greenbank address during the noon hour on June 22, say police. Sometime between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. thieves tried to steal the Volkswagen from a Cragg Rd. home. Police say thieves broke the door handle off in their attempt, but could not gain entry to the vehicle. Damage to the car is estimated to be around $100. PORT PERRY STAR CROSSWORD By Rik Davie Port Perry Star As the strike by 130 Durham-area home care nurses enters its second Striking nurses cite fears for patients she hates to leave her patients because of the strike, they have supported her. "I had a case load of 40 patients per week, with some requiring two or more visits a week," she said. "I worked anywhere from 40 to 55 hours a week with no overtime, ever." Mrs. Freeman, a married mother of three, saw her last pay increase in 1991. St. Elizabeth employees say they want some of the half-a-million dollars that the non-profit company realized last year to be put back into staff pay and increasing the number of nurses handling the ever growing case load.

Meanwhile Rae Robson, director of patient care for North Durham Health Services said that effects of the strike are being felt, but not to a serious degree. "We see an increase in our emergency wards of people needing their IV (intravenous) medications checked and dressings changed," she said. "It has- n't been too bad so far, although I know of one (patient) discharge that we held up this week just to be on the safe side."

She said that DATC knew a labor problem was possi- ble when considering the bid by St. Elizabeth's prior to the April 1 contract start date, but selected the com- pany anyway. Two other agencies also provide care to Durham Access to Care clients. "We were aware that they (St. Elizabeth's) were in the process of negotiating a contract," she said last week. "We used risk evalu- ation to assess the situa- tion, and elected to go ahead." & Ms Pickard added. that there are risk management contingencies in place to deal with such events. "All in all, we feel that we've dealt with the patient load shift pretty well," she said. There are no plans by either side at this time to resume negotiations.
