' Dear Lynne: I am an adiocate of your organized playground pro- gram, however, I feel there are a few gray areas. Firstly, your advertising folder gave the wrong times however, you did not contact ALL parents prior to sending the children home earlier. As a result, my -children were home 1-2 hour before I was. You state that you are not a babysitting service. The term does cheapen a good program, however the very fact that you exist causes parents not to need babysit- ters and thus you become one. I leave for work when your program starts, I am home for lunch and drive the kids back and pick them up or meet them at 3:30. I see no difference between thus and the mother that slaps or visits or stays home. We are available when the children need us. You have your grants plus an extra this year from the Optimists yet your fees go up. I still feel that the charge is worth it. However we pay for' service. During the sidewalk sales we paid and received nothing. As a shopper, I could have done without all the kids and bikes that ran you over while you shopped. Please don't ruin a good thing by carelessness or pet- ty arguing. You have stated you will of- fer a program for X number of days and X price - do it responsibly and with pride. It doesn't matter why the children are there, the fact is that they are there. Thank you.

Constable Baker, an OPP officer for 10 years, was recently named Affirmative Action Manager for the On- tario Ministry of the Solicitor General. The OPP is part of that ministry. Commissioner Ferguson had said before Constable Baker's tour that in the 75th anniversary year of the OPP, a priority would be to attract an increased number of women candidates to apply to the OPP. "Constable Baker's tour has shown that the interest is there," Commissioner Ferguson said, noting that the number of applications from women has increased by 170 percent for the first six months of 1984 as compared to the same period in 1983. Solicitor General Taylor noted that the percentage of women applicants for OPP policing jobs has increased from less than nine percent to '21 percent: -thy year. "This is a welcome in- dicator of increasing interest by young women in what is a challenging and rewarding career opportunity," the Solicitor General said. Commissioner Ferguson said that no quota for the number of female recruits has been set, and the Force wants the best qualified ap- plicants regardless of age. Constable Baker said she was appreciative of the assistance of the media in her efforts to encourage women to consider police work as a career option. During her tour of 40 On- tario municipalities, Con- stable Baker participated in nearly 150 newspaper, radio and television interviews.
