SHORT SHOTS by Evelyn Kennedy Yesterday, Sept. 4, was election day. The result not known as this is written. Did you make an effort tolet out and Yote? it was not 'ably a right buTan obligation to cast our vdte for the candidate we believe the best person to represent us in the federal government. When considering the leaders of Canada's three major parties the choice was difficult. Unfortunately it seems that a number of media persons intruded in an effort to sway voters rather than covering the election. As the president and publisher of the Toronto Sun (The Sun supported Mulroney), said in a paid advertisement, "an editorial position is one thing, a columnist's view another, but news pages and reporters should neither dictate or domineer." He alto said that the manner in which the media consistently attacked John Turner with, what he called in the headline of his ad• "Cheap Shots" filled him, with despair" and "it's time for cheap -shot journalism to stop." If we did not vote we have no right to criticize the government we get. Like 11 or not if we did not vote we helped to put it in. Is there anything more aggravating and frustrating than a television set that refuses to work properly on a long holiday weekend? When alone with only books and a dog for company 1 look to TV for other entertain- ment. Being without it is especially irritating when there are at least six programs, including three Canada Cup games, that one hoped to enjoy. 1f violence was a habit, this set would have got a hefty swift kick to shake it up.

A report released at the annual ineeting of the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police says, "The gangs have enough wealth to employ everything from electronic bugs to women in bars frequented by policemen, in their counter -Intelligence moves against law enforcement." Some gang members in Quebec and B.C. are said to be millionaires which means high calibre legal protection. The report also stated that the gangs are mainly involved in drug trafficing, prostitution and theft. Other activities include rape, fraud and strong-arm enforcement for organized crime, including murder. Some members have laughed at the charges in the report and declare there are no wealthy gang members, that they are only ones who love motorcycling. Other people wno loin cycle clubs for the sheer pleasure of cycling in a group are not to be confused with the gangs, There is a vast difference hetu'een criminal gangs and those who simply enjoy cycling or travel by cycle for economic reasons. ••*a•••e This has been a summer'of happy times. There was the wedding in Ottawa in June when all of my family were together. in July the folks from Winnipeg were with me for most of a week, Four of my Ottawa family spent last week with me.
