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. As patient is a virtue it will get it's
comeuppance when the T.V. repair man
probes its innermost vitals,

Satan's Choice and others are dangerous
and a crime threat, certainly unneeded and
unwanted. 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.

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. As usual when they
are here it was off to one of the Lake Huron
beaches every day, from Grand Bend to
Southampton. No way would they leave
grandma at home. All the gadding about and
the late hours left grandma somewhat
exhausted, After wet -eyed good byes when
they left it was into the house for a weekend
of relaxation for me and my dog Sheeba.
What a great feeling it gives one to have
members of their family with them,
