It also recorded where each oc- curred — lot and concession number — the day and time, the age and sex of victim and accused, whether charges had been laid and the out- come of the case, and whether liquor was involved. At the start, they recorded names of offenders, but later were told not to bother. However they could not help . noticing that some names- caine up again and again, Lori said. In one community, for example, the name of a certain teenaged girl came up "a tremendous number of times."

During-. the course of the summer., however, they were exposed to the people who work in law enforcement and the ex- perience left an impression. "It certainly changed all our views of the police," Lori commented. . "You don't really realize what they have to put up with." On the lighter side, team members helped with bicycle rodeos and a safety village run by the OPP. One of the highlights of the summer was meeting federal Solicitor -General Robert Kaplan during a reception at OPP head- quarters, as well as touring the Metro Toronto Police Museum. "It was a really interesting, summer," Lori said. But the lawyer's daughter doesn't plan to make law en-, forcemeat her career.
