INSIDE John Evans Glebe Neighbourhood Draft Development Plan Berries in Season

JOHN EVANS: Member of Parliament, Ottawa Centre Ottawa Centre's new

member of ParHament is excited by the opportunity of representing his constituents.

Evans' win was regarded by many as an upset, but Evans said he felt confident from the beginning. "The by-election was an aberration," he said. He attributes his win to the

effective Liberal organization in

Ottawa Centre and also to the fact that this riding has been a Liberal stronghold for many years.

Evans would like to see the downtown core revitalized and

plans to "act as a

catalyst" for down- town redevelopment. He also sees the need for encouraging new businesses into the Ottawa area in order to create new jobs.

"Principal Shuffle" The principals of Glebe's three Ottawa Board

Schools will be leaving the area at the end of the

school year. Their departure is part of a city-wide "principal shuffle". Mr King, currently at Glebe Collegiate, is being

transferred to Canterbury High School to begin his term as principal there in September 1979. Mr Zadow will be going to Woodroffe Elementary

School from a six year stint at Mutchmor. And Mr Wing leaves First Avenue School, after

two years,ifor Elgin Street School. Mr Zadow enjoyed his tenure at Mutchmor and

found the experience "very rewarding. I'm going to

miss the community," he stated. Mr King found the Glebe community to be "very well

organized and aware. People were never afraid to pick up the phone and complain to me."

Mr Wing also enjoyed his time at First Avenue, finding it interesting and rewarding. He was

pleased with the excellent cooperation he received from the community. "There were always people

ready to help," he said. By September, the Glebe will be welcoming three

new principals.

Sneezy Waters and His Excellent Band were

just that - excellent - on Thursday May 31 at

a concert and dance benefit for the Glebe

Daycare Centre. Sneezy Waters' mixture of folk, blues, and

country music never fails to get crowds moving

and having fun. Thursday night was no exception.

Over 250 people attended the show, filling

the Daycare's coffers with over a thousand

dollars. The organizers were overwhelmed by the

success of the benefit and offer sincere thanks

to Sneezy and His Band for a great time.

Because of his knowledge of the subject, Evans feels that the major focus of his attention will be economics and finance. He is also concerned with consumer rights. Before running for office, Evans was Director of Consumer Research in the

Department of Consumer and Corporate Affairs.

John Evans also sees himself as a "watch- dog" for the interests of the public servants. He thinks the plans for cutbacks in the

public service are "nonsense". He believes that the policies were poorly

thought out. "1 will

actively pursue the

Conservatives as to

their cutback policies"

As well he feels

that the mortgage deductability plan

of the new government is a bad policy for

Canada. "We do not

have a housing problem in Ottawa. In fact, there is a glut of new housing." With this plan, increases in property taxes can be easily just- ified, he feels.

When Parliament sits again this fall, Evans says he "will sit and watch and learn for the first little while. I have

a lot of learning to do."

To reach his constituents, John Evans is hoping to rent space in the various community centres throughout Ottawa Centre and meet his constituents at regular intervals. He will conduct his day to day constit- uency business from his Parliament Hill office. He can be reached at 992-2722.

John Evans thanks the people of Ottawa Centre for their support, and says he "plans to be around for a long time."

Ottawa Mid-Summer Homestay Cultural Exchange

In this International Year of the Child, two groups of young people from Mexico will have the opportunity to improve their English while staying with Ottawa host families during July and early August. Varied programmes of study and enrichment excursions are planned for the

Mexican students aged 11 to 15 and 16 to 20. The EF Institute for Cultural Exchange is seeking families who are

willing to open their homes for about three weeks and to hare in this cross-cultural experience. The dates involved are July 7th to August 1st and July 12th to August 6th.

The participation of the children of host families in the day trips and other activiteis will be encouraged as much as possible. However, homes without children in this age group are also welcomed to host a student.

The visit is arranged by the EF Institute for Cultural Exchange, one of the largest international study organizations. The letters "EF" stand for the Swedish name "Europeiska Ferieskolan", which translates as "European vacation schools".

EF has chosen the Year of the Child to present their first Canadian exchange to include an educational programme. For further information and to offer assistance as a host family, please call Bruce Burgess at 238-3385 or Joanne Payne at 521-8410.

with Barbara Riley Mayflower Restaurant

A couple of years ago the Mayflower, at Elgin and Cooper, transformed itself from a greasy spoon into a pleasant restaurant serving imaginative hamburgers, excellent fresh salads, and scrumptious desserts. This past year a cosy little pub was added at the back on Cooper Street, with warm British beer and British pub lunches. Now the Mayflower also has an outdoor dining area covered with a bright flowered awning and decorated with warm lights and lots of plants. It's a very pleasant place for supper on a warm evening - good for food, drink, and people watching - and it is deservedly popular.

Varied Menu The menu offers a wide variety of hamburgers served with French Fries

and garnishes ($2.35 - $2.95), fresh salads ($1.95 and $2.25 - for another $1 they will add chunks of tuna, chicken or cheese)and a welcome variety of o'ther light meals: Scotch egg ($2.75), Quiche Lorraine ($3.45) Cornish pastry ($2.95), sausage rolls ($2.75) and cold veal and ham pie ($2.75). All of these come with a salad and some include a thick slice of French bread. Desserts include cheesecake (1.25), English trifle ($1.25), fresh strawberry shortcake ($1.65) and a cheese plate ($1.50). To wet your whistle there's a very limited choice of liquor: a pint of Carlsberg lager or draft for $1.60 and red, white or rosé wine at $2.25 for a 7 ounce glass ($4.95 for half a litre). Many teas, fresh fruit juices and fancy alcoholic coffees will keep

you from running on empty.

Sampled Delights We tried the Waistwatcher hamburger (bun and french fries were

replaced with cottage cheese, fresh fruit and vegetable garnishes), the

Pilgrim hamburger (standard model) and the veal and ham pie. Both

hamburgers were delicious - no sawdust filler and just like homemade,

although one diner thought they were too bland. The fries were good -

round cut and crisp. Everything was very fresh. It seems, however,

that you must ask for the whole wheat bun, otherwise you will get

standard white bread. The large slice of cold veal and ham pie with a hard boiled egg hidden in it was delicious. The salad was very fresh, had

a nice variety of crunchy vegetables and was topped by one of the best

house dressings I have ever tasted - light and a little tangy; best of

all the salad was not smothered in it.

Unfortunately, earlier customers had gobbled up all the strawberry

shortcake, so I tried chocolate torte - predictably rich and good. We

finished with cups of Earl Grey and mint tea.

Relax and Enjoy We sat eating and talking for over two hours on a warm pleasant

Sunday evening and not once were we made to feel rushed. That is as an outdoor café should be and two of my friends recalled similar experiences in Europe. The Mayflower is a relaxed place to enjoy Ottawa's summer, consume good food and drink, talk and feel at peace with the world.

Laurier House: Children's Exhibit Laurier House is marking International Year

of the Child with an exhibition of children's art entitled BEAVER TALES. The exhibition will run until July 29.

All art in the show is the work of Ottawa area children between the ages of 4 and 15 years. Earlier this year, the children were invited to submit a work of their own making on a subject in Canadian history. The result was over 400 multi-media submissions ranging from quilts, paintings and soap carvings to model forts and homemade jam. Due to the limited space for display the judges selected approximately 150 works for the exhibition. Each work was selected for its histoAcal content, imagination and execution, with consideration given to the age of the child.

"There were no prizes awarded in this exhibi- tion, although each child was given a certificate of participation," said Valerie Proctor, Curator of Laurier House. "The biggest reward for the children will be a well-attended exhibition," she added.

Located at 335 Laurier Avenue East, Laurier House is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 am to 5 pm and on Sunday from 2 to 5 pm. Free Admission.

The following names are of children from the Glebe who have received certificates of participation: Sean Burke, Bruce Black, Belle Richardson, Kevin Belanger, Karen Peake, Jimmy Schneider and Peter Thomson.

What does the sensible homeowner do to reduce increasing food and fuel costs?

Build a solar greenhouse! Join a 21 day building bee putting up a solar greenhouse:

That's the subject of a hands-on learning workshop offered through the summer by the Conserver Society Cooperative of Ottawa.

Not only will you be able to pick up useful designing and building skills, but also gain a fine introduction to

solar energy in general. There are numerous advantages to having a solar greenhouse

as part of your home: it provides a source of fresh, inex- pensive food; it lowers home fuel consumption; it moderates the humidity in the house during the cold, dry winter months; it provides a summer or spring-like environment all year round; and it is a permanent addition that increases the living space and value of your home.

Conserver Cooperative is a non-profit organization that makes available to individuals and groups the appropriate tools and concepts which encourage local self-reliance.

O.M.B. Allows Citizens Appeal

yor Dewar as Chairman, n Marlene Catterall as d myself. We meet for opment agenda every 1 process for the schedule of meetings on Friday June 22

titre. Anyone wishing to sentation in support of ,s asked to phone David Ittempt to assign fixed 'delegation.

On Monday, May 28 Mayor Dewar chaired an information meeting on Lansdowne Park. In attendance were Commissioner Charles Sim, Physical Environment Department of the City of Ottawa, two representatives of the Ottawa Police Force and myself as Ward Alderman.

In 1977 the Ottawa City Council adopted a master Development Plan for Lansdowne Park prepared by the Lansdowne Advisory Committee (LDAC). It

contained recommendations for planned and staged development for the Park, with the accent on putting the "Park back into Lansdowne". For example it recommended no expropriation on Holmwood, no parking garage, no expansion of the paved surfaces etc. Since many people are not aware of the recommendations which Council adopted, it was suggested that another public information meeting be held.

The future of the Cattle Castle, parking, traffic noise, vandalism and garbage were the main problems mentioned by residents who attended the meeting.

The police representatives indicated a willingness to assign more forces to the area during major events and to make a special surveillance of reported occurrences of hooliganism.

The Transportation Committee of the Glebe Neighbourhood Study has also made excellent recommendations to alleviate traffic and parking problems in ehe area, through parking permits. It is hoped that the City will apply to the Provincial legislature for permission to imple - ment a parking permit system on a trial basis.

A painting contractor operating at the corner of Fifth and Craig had constructed, in 1969, a second garage in the back of his property, after signing an affidavit to the effect that at no time would such a garage be used for the storing of paint and or building material. However, the garage was in fact used for such a purpose and when the infraction was reported, the owner applied to the Committee of Adjustment for the second bay of the garage to be included in the non - conforming rights he had obtained through a previous court decis The Committee of Adjustment, despite opposition from neighbours, granted the non - conforming rights. Mr. Robert Monaghan, Chairman of Neighbourhood Planning of the Glebe Community Association, appealed the decision to the Ontario Municipal Board. A decision was sub - sequently handed down by the OMB allowing Mr. Monaghan's appeal and dismissing the painting contractor's application. This may appear to be a small victory, as it concerns only the second bay of an existing garage, but it was definitely a question of principle and enforcement.

Everyday, people break the law and then appeal to various City departments and boards to make their actions legal. This OMB decision was encouragement to those who are working hard to have by - laws respected and properlyenforcod. Mr. Monaghan is to be con - gratulated for all the time and effort he devoted to the preparation and presentation of his appeal.

Front-Yard Parking There is still a lot of confusion con-

cerning front-yard parking. The City by-laws used to include a provision stating that it was illegal to park a car in any portion of one's own driveway which was in front of the house line. Well, over 80% of people were breaking this by-law as many of them either cannot or do not put their cars behind the house lines. In December 1978 that provision was removed and By-Law 411-78 was passed making it legal to park in front of your home in your driveway. As for other front-yard parking cases where no driveway exists, the City's Planning Branch is still preparing its report. As soon as a new proposal is submitted, I will write up a detailed ex- planation in this column.

Request for Parking Prohibition: Holmwood

A resident of Holmwood Avenue between Craig and Ralph has requested that parking be pro - hibited at any time on the south side of Holm - wood between Ralph Street and a point 63 metres west of Ralph Street. Since the new Timberlay townhouses have been built, the distance between the last driveway and Ralph Street is no longer adequate for legal parking. I have been asked for my comments as Ward alderman on this matter. I urge you to con - tact me if you are concerned about this re - quest (563 - 3165 or 234 - 7503).

Pretoria Bridge As is evident, demolition of the Pretoria Bridge did not begin April 1, nor was the pedestrian crossing built. There were difficulties en - countered with the structural steel fabri - cation process by the contractor. It is not known yet when the demolition will occur nor when the footbridge will be built. We have, however, been given assurance that the bridge will not be demolished until the pedestrian crossing is built.

"Our Place" for Dining At 865 Gladstone Avenue, seniors can enjoy

good food and the c.ompany of their friends and neighbours, in a relaxed and congenial atmosphere. "Our Place", run by the City of Ottawa, is a dining room geared specially to give senior citizens the best of nutritious meals. It is open weekdays only and reser - vations are advisable (232 - 2566).

Ward Areas It has now been decided by City Council

that the new areas of Capital Ward will be the Glebe and Ottawa South for the 1980 Election - Ottawa East will be a part of St. Georges Ward. City Hall: 563 - 3165 Res.: 234 - 7503

Living Foods Make a Living Boo While this idea of writing about healthy foods was still in the plan-

ing stage, I came across an interview with Dr Gaylord Hauser. I learned a few things which I would like to share with my friends.

By living foods I mean fresh fruits and vegetables. The nutritive habits of civilized people have taken us out of the true way of living, for we prefer animal food, white bread, preserved, cooked and roasted food. When we talk about nutrition, white sugar is one of our great enemies.

The average person consumes about 100 pounds of sugar a year which is taken into the body through foods such as frozen and canned vegetables, which also contain chemicals, preservatives and artificial colour. Frozen juice loses its natural enzymes. A slice of whole wheat bread, one egg and weak tea for breakfast; salad, cottage cheese and eggs at lunch make a healthy diet.

A meal should be predominantly protein or carbohydrates, but never both. A glass of freshvegetable or fruit juice is full of calcium and B-vitamins. Baked goods can be made live if made with butter, organic flour and

without any preservatives or colour. Safflower oil is better than all animal fat. Many other commercial

oils can cause hardening of the arteries. To avoid these synthetic foods we should eat a low calorie diet consisting of 10 percent protein 10 percent fat and 80 percent whole foods such as grain, fruit and vegetables.

All protein foods are peanuts, beans and lentils. To cook, they should be boiled for several minutes and seasoned with low sodium vegetable salt. Sprouts can be enjoyed in salads, sandwiches and soups. Bread can even be baked with sprouted alfalfa or soybeans.

Fat is the most suspicious element in the cause of cancer. Oil used for frying is 100 percent fat and becomes a live poison in our bodies. Unrefined fats are the best for cooking with.

For dessert, nice fresh fruit or homemade ice cream is recommended instead of cake or patsry.

The five wonder foods which I recommend are: Brewer's Yeast; Proteins; Yogurt; Skim Milk and Black Strap Molasses.

TORONTO - Bank in the late 50's, when Luba Goy of CBC Radio's "Air

Farce" was attending a class at Glebe Collegiate, she was handed a blank

piece of paper, and asked "What would you like to be when you graduate?"

She wrote" actress". "Why did I want to be an actress?" Luba remembers.

"Because what else could I be? I couldn't think of anything else."

Luba Goy has come a long way since her days at Glebe. She's trained

with the National Theatre School and worked with the Stratford Theatre

branch at the National Arts Centre. Most noteworthy to date is all

the work she does with the "Air Farce" troupe, which won the ACTRA

Award for Best Variety Performance in Radio, and the Juno award for

their "Air Farce Comedy Album". "I want to make people laugh" says Luba, "and if people say, 'I

think you're a funny girl', then it makes me feel good. I've done my

job."

A Lot of Moving Around Luba was born in Germany. The family went to Belgium where Luba's

parents performed in a famous Ukranian choir and dance ensemble. When the group separated, this family decided to immigrate to Canada, to

Ottawa. The Goys never stayed very long at one place. "We lived in different

places all over Ottawa", Luba remembers. "We lived in the Glebe, in

Ottawa South. I went to Percy Street school for awhile and we lived

somewhere in that neighbourhood too. I don't even know what the name of the street was. Can't remember."

Early Performances As Luba grew up she found that she too was an en-

tertainer like her parents. She sang Ukranian songs and danced Ukranian dances for the community. It was in grade 7 at York Street school that Luba received recognition outside the Ukranian community; "when you're five feet tall, and have a funny name, and look strange, you have to become a ham to survive".

"It makes me laugh now when I think of it, but I was very self-con- scious about my profile." Luba did not do well at Glebe (she spent six years there), but she was very active in the school's drama club, and appeared in Glebe's first school show, "Bye Bye Birdie", which was directed by Don Herbertson and produced by John Parry.

"I wanted a singing part,. . . They gave me Mae Peterson, which was fine. I liked the part. But I never got a chance to sing in the show. I was so determined that I brought my accordian to school. And I

played it for them, and then began to sing in this reedy little voice. I didn't get a singing part."

After Graduation After she graduated from grade 13, Luba worked for a year, performed

with Le Hibou, and did a lot of theatre at Carleton. At the same time, she worked with other Ottawa novices who would

become big names, like Valri Bromfield and Dan Aykroyd. When Luba went to the National Theatre School in Montreal, her first

year's tuition fee was paid for by the Ottawa Theatre Foundation as a Centennial project. The second year, the Theatre Foundation didn't have the money, but somehow managed to pay for Luba's schooling. The third year, they folded up completely. "I guess I was just too expen- sive for them". However, tuition was sent anonymously to the National Theatre School to put Luba through her final year.

After graduating, Luba worked with the Stratford Theatre branch at the National Arts Centre, and then met Marion André, who recommended she audition for the "Jest Society" troupe. She became a part of the group, which then consisted of Martin Bronstein, Roger Abbott, Don Ferguson and John Morgan. The "Jest Society" performed hundreds of times, including 6 weeks at the National Arts Centre, where they were sold out every night.

Royal Canadian Air Farce it was when the "Jest Society" were performing at the Poor Alex in

Toronto that they met Dave Broadfoot. "We found that we liked Dave and he liked us", says Luba. "And we thought, "Gee, wouldn't it be great if Dave joined us, and then we would be a very strong and funny group".

With Broadfoot in the troupe, they became the "Royal Canadian Air Farce", and started performing in their weekly CBC radio comedy series. "We can't believe the amount of mail we get", says Luba. "It comes from children, teenagers, University students, housewives, and old people".

4.1!""5(4r willfrau

Some Recognition The exposure on television has netted some

recognition, "sometimes I don't know if they're just looking at me because they think I'm interesting to look at, or because they've seen me in a commercial".

One thing is sure; Luba is definitely happy working with the "Air Farce": "I've always considered myself to be the luckiest actress in Canada. I don't think any other actress has had the kind of experiences that I have had with this group. We've done everything ... radio, television, the stage. We have lots of fans."

gardener, but it also benefits the earth beyond one's fence because achievement in that particular field, having wastes are not unnecessarily dumped at the regional dump site. This

means less space is taken up, less fuel is needed to drive it there.

Buried in the disposal site, our garden wastes do not benefit the soil

when they are mixed with non-degradable trash. And why shouldn't we

benefit from our own waste?

Are We Ready for Degradable Plastic? GLEBE REPORT reader Linda Luciak has

discovered an American company which produces plastic trash bags that break down in the soil within several weeks or months depending on the climatic conditions. Its chemical treatment causes the bag to break down into "harmless natural elements". The next question is to find out what the chemical is and whether it itself is harmless. If anyone is interested in suggesting the bag to the Department of the Environment, the bag is made by Bes-Pak Webster Industries, Peabody, Massachusetts, but can- not be exported to Canada because of prohibitive

Your Wastes =Compost = Rich Soil Compost is a mix of organic waste such as grass clippings, leaves,

vegetable parings, nut and egg shells, coffee grounds, tea bags and leaves and apple cores. These should be layered with soil, bone meal or manure to provide the necessary nitrogen for the conversion into humus. Lime can be scattered sparingly over each layer to prevent acidity, or in old-fashioned parlance - to sweeten the soil. Warmth,

moisture and oxygen are needed for the aerobic soil bacteria to work at breaking down the material. When internal temperatures are maintained between 84 degrees (C) and 106 degrees (C) this process will occur provided it is moist and the air can reach it. Garbage cans with perforated bases or slatted boxes made out of scrap lumber can be used. A secondary container is useful if one wishes to aerate the mixture after a six week period. Earthworms will then go to work on the waste and through their digestive process will produce castings of rich humus. To speed up the process one can shred the leaves with a rotary mower and grind one's kitchen wastes.

Pollution Probe's compost project carried out in Brewer Park a few years ago took only two weeks to process. This project made use of

woodchips instead of soil layers and its faster process was due to

the fact that the material was turned into a secondary bin every 3 days

once the temperature had built up.

Weed Prevention The use of composted material as mulch will elminate flower bed

weeding. Otter materials such as grass clippings, hay, sawdust can also be used. If you wish to keep a corner of the garden as woodland area it is important to let the leaves lie where they fall as it occurs

in the woods and forests to provide a rich soil to foster new growth. Grass cannot be mulched so it is advisable to grow grass very densely

to crowd out the crabgrass. However, our kind of crabgrass seems to fight its way into any patch and the only recourse is to pluck it out by hand. Dandelion leaves are ideal in salads, providing of course you have no animals around. Dandelion roots can be dried and ground as a coffee substitute as Susannah Moodie discovered when roughing it in the bush in the 1840s. If the dandelion heads are not allowed to go to seed, your neighbours won't mind them at all.

Insects Beware! A common problem for the gardener is the common slug. Apartment balcony

gardeners are probably spared the miserable slug who tackles anything in the garden except perhaps peony leaves. Continual wet weather will produce a bountiful harvest of slugs and the only way to reduce their population is to capture them through grapefruit or orange halves placed at strategic intervals around the beds. The next morning one must gather the harvest. Bacteria and insects can be effectively barred from trees -end vegetables by a spray of garlic and water. Companionate gardening - a new phrase for an old-fashioned method - will reduce pest population too. Marigolds, nasturtiums or zinnias, if planted in clumps among végetables will deter common pests. Tansey or spearmint discourages ants. Onions or chives near beans or roses will ban aphids and other insects.

There are many suggestions for companionate plantings in a pleasant and informative booklet called PEACOCK MANURE AND MARIGOLDS, subtitled "A No Poison Guide to the Beautiful Garden" by Janet Gillespie. Other books recommended for basic gardening practice in harmony with nature are THE ORGANIC GARDENER by C.O. Foster and THE BASIC BOOK OF ORGANIC GARDENING edited by Robert Rodale.

our own depot at the rear of the Glebe IGA, and a team of hard working volunteers to keep it going.

From that time, we have attempted to provide a background of knowledge on which to base personal daily living habits in tune with the environment. Columns have dealt with various themes such as water and sewage treatment, garbage as a utilized resource, solar energy and conserverism philosophy. In the process of writing this column I have learned a great deal. The most important realization has been that pollution of the earth will continue for as long as we allow it. Corny though it sounds. future generations depend on us to reassess our daily living habits in order to decrease the contamination of our earth, water and air. To argue that one lacks the time to recycle or to reduce waste is to forget the individual and collective impact on the earth which will affect generations to come. Think before you

The Top Drawer: A New Place for Antiques

The TOP DRAWER is open at 101 Fourth Avenue, next to the Post Office. Owner Kevin Briscoe sells antiques, used furniture and collectibles, and he is proud of his low prices. Furniture refinishing and repairs are also available along with custom made shelves and bookcases. All work is done by hand.

Kevin worked for an Ottawa refinisher and has a good deal of experience working with antiques. He has been a Glebe resident for several years and he wanted to open his new business here. So far,

Kevin has found that most of his customers are from the Glebe. The TOP DRAWER inventory includes tables, chairs, wash stands,

dressers, buffets and trunks. A list of the smaller items to be found would include wooden carpenter's planes, jugs, bottles, saws,

and a metal grape press scraper. Kevin reports that this last piece is a rare collector's item and sells for only $50.00. Other values include an East Lake style ash wash stand. Refinished, it sells for $145.00. When I talked with Kevin, a set of six pressed back chairs, refinished with leather seats, was available for $390.00 A pine blanket box was selling for $195.00.

GLEBE NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN

Alderman's Special Report

When looking at the entire Glebe area, the Land Use Committee made specific proposals for changes or modifications to existing zoning. In its consideration of the R5 (1.0) areas

described above, the Land Use Committee concluded that a height limit was needed to

prevent construction of buildings which would be out of scale with the surrounding neigh- bourhood. The Committee also concluded that a maximum building height of 35 feet would

provide this protection. Accordingly, it has

recommended that the FSI code be removed for

the R5 (1.0) area in question: this would

automatically restrict the maximum height of any new building to 35 feet.

Unfortunately in the draft plan document, the

planning rationale for this proposal includes a

reference to "...encouraging infill housing".

The intent of the Land Use Committee proposal

is TO RESTRICT HEIGHT TO 35 FEET, NOT to

encourage infill housing. "Infill housing",

a misunderstood term creating some confusion,

is a generic term to describe any kind of

housing put on any kind of vacant land within an already developed area as long as it conforms

to existing by-laws. "Infill housing" could

occur within ANY residential zone providing

it conforms with the requirements of the zoning

Since September 1977, many Glebe residents concerned with their com- munity have been meeting on a regular basis and participating in the Glebe Neighbourhood Study. Several public meetings were held as well as open house sessions in the Glebe Planning Office on First Ave. Brochures outlining the main recommendations were delivered to all Glebe homes and to non-resident owners of Glebe properties.

On May 14th, the Ottawa Planning Board held a public meeting in the Glebe Community Centre. Representatives of the Neighbourhood Study's five Interest Committees(Land use, Commercial, Transportation, Re- creation and Social Planning) gave an outline of their proposals and invited comments from th& audience.

foot of land that you own; if the FSI is (3.0) you can build THREE square feet of building floor area for every square foot of land. When no FSI at all is shown, this means an automatic building height limit of 35 ft.

For example, let us suppose that one owner has assembled all the houses on the South side of Second Avenue and all the properties on the North side of Third Avenue between Bank and Lyon. Under R5(1.0) he could demolish all the existing properties and build a very large and very high building.

In February 1979, it became apparent that many months might elapse before the Capital Ward Neighbourhood Study Draft Plans would be adopted by Council and implemented. There was the possibility that projects incompatible with the Draft Plan proposals might take place and thus defeat the whole idea of a Neighbourhood Study. With this in mind, I introduced to Council a temporary holding by-law which was passed unanimously. The by-law restricts heights of any new building in Capital Ward to 35 feet, prevents demolition of housing units and restricts certain commercial uses. This holding by-law will be in effect until the three Capital Ward plans have been adopted by Council, i.e. until appropriate zoning by-laws reflecting the recommendations of the Neighbourhood Study are in place.

The Planning Board meetings have

been going on through the past four

weeks. Glebe residents are encour-

aged to present briefs and to

An Overview The Glebe Draft Development Plan has been completed after two years

of study. Proposals were formulated for five different areas of

concern: Land Use, Commercial, Recreation, Social Planning and Transportation.

The Ottawa Planning Board is in the process of examining and approving these proposals. After the Planning Board meetings, the Plan will go to City Council for final approval. These proposals will form guidelines for the Glebe's near and medium-term future (5 to 10 years). At the general public meeting on May 31 at the Glebe Community Centre,

several points were raised about the plan by residents. Some comments appear in this section.

Dear Editor: The Planning Board of the City of Ottawa is currently adopting a de- "The rationale behind this proposal is to pro-

the community has not been adequately addressed, nor in some instances The main thrust of the Draft Development

has it even been considered. The goal which the Planning Board and its committees have used as a

guide in the drafting of this plan, in so far as its proposals relate to

Land Use, is as follows: "To maintain, preserve and enhance the Glebe as an attractive residential neighbourhood for people of various ages, income levels and life situations; to permit other land uses which are compatible with this residential character; and to encourage comple- mentary elements of the physical environment". Unfortunately, this

goal is not achieved in the Glebe Draft Development Plan, nor even mildly things. It dictates additional housing and

"Village Atmosphere"? The implications and significance of many of the proposals in the

Glebe Draft Development Plan are often hard to pin-point. It takes a

certain amount of investigation and projection to realize the

consequences buried in the terminology of the planners and in the hints

at policy direction in which Planning Board is presently moving. How-

ever, even a cursory glance at the land use and commercial sections of

the plan reveal some unsettling suspicions.

The Bank Street 'strip' between Glebe Avenue and Fifth Avenue is

referred to as an area which will express a "village atmosphere",

comparable to "Bloor Street West in Toronto". We could see, in the

near future, buildings up to 5 storeys high dominating both sides of

our central corridor, providing increased retail space as well as

apartments and parking facilities. It is stated in the plan that these

new businesses would cater "mainly to local clientele" yet a proposal

regarding commercial promotion suggests "signs indicating the presence

of Bank Street ... be ... posted on the Queensway".

Dear Editor: During June, the City of Ottawa Planning Board will have held meetings

on the draft Glebe Neighbourhood Plan. It is the Board's intention that they be held in the Glebe so that active community participation in the decision making process can be made. However, the organizational structure of these meetings make community participation difficult.

In the first place, the meetings are not well advertised. It is

necessary for the Planning Board to make some effort to adequately publicize the meetings. At least one week's notice should be given. A poster at the Glebe Community Centre and the IGA would help. It would also be helpful if the meetings could be held in a larger room. At the first meeting, many people had to sit in the hall and had difficulty in participating in the discussion and hearing the decisions. Although active community participation is being sought by Planning

Board, some of these meetings were, and continue to be held from 9 am to 4:30 pm. Consequently many individuals interested in the future of their community will have difficulty in participating in the decision making process. It is hoped that copies of any decision made will be available at the Community Centre and that interested individuals un- able to attend day meetings will have the opportunity to comment at evening meetings.

It is important that people living in the Glebe be able to p.,rticipate in Planning Board decisions. The future of our community is now being decided upon. Sheila Klein

Plan would appear to be towards an increase in

population. Do we want this? How many people is the community capable of absorbing while still retaining its character of an attractive residential neighbourhood?

Reductions A higher population density dictates many

dictates a reduction in many things. It

dictates a reduction in front, back and side lawns, a reduction in trees, flower gardens and bushes. It dictates a reduction in

privacy, in tranquility, a reduction in safe-

ty and in communal familiarity. Certainly, if you set a goal as noble and as

responsible as that of maintaining, preserving and enhancing "an attractive, residential neighbourhood", you must first take into consideration what the nature of that neigh- bourhood is. Sadly, this has not been done.

Minority Activism Development can mean improvement, or it

can simply mean growth, and growth brings with it the potential for either positive or negative effects. If those effects turn out to be negative, we have all lost; if we enter- tain the hope that they be positive, then development must be applied with utmost prudence and with the knowledge, participation and approval of the total community. We are not only dealing with the quality of our neigh- bourhood, but also with the very quality of our lives. If we make mistakes we will lose a treasure beyond estimate and reclaim. Development in the sense of improvement cannot be achieved solely through a set of zoning by-laws applied through a process of minority activism, activism well intentioned to its

own designs and technically researched, yet activism which does not perhaps reflect a true

expression of the total community view. We can deal with the effects of regional

growth in a rational and generous manner, in

a way compatible with the goals, interests and aspirations of our communities. If, on the

other hand, we encourage the growth rate envisioned in the policy and proposals of the

Draft Development Plan it will merely be a short time before we have destroyed the very character of this community. The words "main- tain, preserve, and enhance" mean just that - is that not the direction in which our develop- ment strategy ought to be moving?

WILMA PINKUS: Watercolour Artist Wilma Pinkus.teaches art at the High School of Commerce, and is a

fine water colour artist. Her flower studies and still life paintings are intensely alive, forceful yet delicate, and quite often beautiful. Portraits are strong, executed with confident, brilliant brushstrokes, and landscapes sweep the viewer into the atmosphere like a willing bird hovering between land and sky. The subtle handling and richness of colour and density contrasting with light and volume show absolute understanding and control of her chosen medium.

Courses Offered The art courses offered at the High School of Commerce are exception-

ally varied and include design, typography, history of art, ceramics,

photography, illustration, life drawing and painting. Students from

grades 9 through 13 can devote half their schedule to the arts, and

adults wishing to study may join classes. Wilma specializes in teaching still life and arranges with great care and thought inspiring subjects worthy of Cezanne. She demonstrates drawing and painting techniques emphasizing the necessity of discipline, fundamental structures and an

awareness for seeing subjects fully and clearly. The students go to the

National Gallery to examine original drawings and prints by the great

masters of the 15th century onwards to gain knowledge of art history and observe the various methods and materials used. Wilma also takes the

students to major art exhibitions in Montreal and Toronto to get an

impression of contemporary work and to visit art colleges so that they may decide where to continue art education. Many of the students are

incredibly talented and have gone directly into second and third year college courses after leaving High School and winning scholarships.

Art at an Early Age The well known artist and teacher Arthur Lismer first introduced

Wilma to art, when, at the age of 8, she joined his Saturday classes for children at the Toronto Art Gallery. From there she graduated from Central Tech and the Ontario College of Art, and worked for three years as an interior display designer at Simpsons. After winning a scholarship she studied at the Universities of British Columbia and Colorado Springs, and lived in Vancouver before coming to Ottawa 17 years ago. She started teaching at Laurentian High School and has been at the High School of Commerce fo t the past 12 years.

Exhibits As a member of the Ottawa Watercolour Society, Wilma's paintings have

been shown at the Robertson Gallery, Wallacks, the Dominion Corinth and in group exhibitions. Last month she won the Gallery Award for her still life in the watercolour exhibition at the Braam Gallery. In Montreal she had a one-woman show at the National Film Board and has also exhibited in Toronto.

As well as teaching and painting Wilma studied art history at Carleton University and graduated with first class honours last year.

Berries in Season

Strawberries

WITH JEAN McKAY

Of all the desserts in the spectrum of cuisines, I find those made with fruit the most rewarding. Unfortunately, we seldom find fruit at its peak nowadays, but we are often lucky enough to obtain flavourful ex- amples that have survived early picking, long storage, and transportation from distant regions. Time was when each fruit came into the market in its specific season, the parade beginning in early summer and lasting through the autumn.

STRAWBERRIES ROMANOV - Wash and hull 1 quart large ripe strawberries.

Put them in a bowl and sprinkle them with sugar, if necessary. Add 1 cup

freshly squeezed orange juice and 1/3 cup orange-flavoured liqueur and let

the strawberries macerate for 1 hour. Transfer the berries to a chilled

serving dish, draining off some of the liquid. Whip 1/2 cup heavy

cream and sweeten it with 2 tablespoons sugar. Spread the cream over the

berries and decorate the dish with candied violets.

STRAWBERRIES BERNHARDT - Wash and hull 1 quart ripe strawberries and

put them in a bowl. Combine them with 3 tablespoons sugar and 1/3 cup

orange-flavoured liqueur and chill them for 3 hours. Arrange 11 pints vanilla ice cream in a serving dish and cover it with a thick layer of

preserved pineapple, pineapple jam, or pineapple marmalade. Add the

chilled berries and cover them with 1 cup heavy cream, whipped, sweet-

ened with 2 tablespoons sugar, and flavoured with 3 tablespoons orange-

flavoured liqueur. Garnish the dessert with ripe strawberries.

STRAWBERRIES RAFFAELLO - Wash 1 quart ripe strawberries with Sherry,

hull them, and drain them. Put the berries in a glass bowl and add

sugar to taste. Add 3/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice and 1/4 cup

orange-flavoured liqueur. Just before serving add the juice of half

a lemon. Serve the dessert very cold.

Raspberries Ripe raspberries have an exquisite bouquet, a subtle flavour and a

silky texture that make them ambrosial whether served with just a dusting of sugar, with sugar and heavy cream, or with a touch of crème de cassis. Madeira enhances raspberries too, as does eau-de-vie de fram- boiseLifit is incorporated in whipped cream or crème anglaise. Straight Kirsch or framboise, on the other hand, is perhaps too harsh for raspberries and overshadows their delicacy.

VICTORIAN TRIFLE - Wash carefully 1 quart raspberries and reserve 1/4

cup berries tor the garnish. Combine the remaining raspberries with 1

cup sugar, or to taste, and crush them slightly. Fill a deep bowl, about 9 inches wide with alternate layers of the raspberries, 8 -inch circles of spongecake, cut 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick and moistened with Sherry, and vanilla custard, ending with the custard. Chill the trifle for 1 - 2 hours, or until the custard is set. Spread a thin layer of whipped cream over the trifle. Fill a pastry bag fitted with a flutted tube with 1 cup heavy cream, whipped. Pipe two circles of rosettes in

the center of the trifle and pipe the remaining whipped cream around the rim of the trifle. Garnish the center with the reserved whole raspberries

VANILLA CUSTARD - In the top of a double boiler beat 5 egg yolks until they are light and stir in 1 cup sugar. Add gradually 1 cup each of milk and light cream, scalded with 1 vanilla bean. Set the pan over hot water and cook the custard, stirring constantly until it coats the spoon. Strain the custard and cool it, stirring occasionally.

On World Environment Day, June 5, Dr Syed Sattar, a microbiologist at the University of Ottawa talked about the pollution of the

Ottawa River. His presentation held at the Glebe Community

Centre was revealing and frightening in its implications. The Ottawa River is so polluted that there is cause for some concern about the possible presence of viruses in the region's drinking water. Dr Sattar has so far discovered polio and many other viruses in the river itself. Viral diseases could occur if the sewage situation is allowed to continue, he said.

Dr Sattar will be releasing his latest figures on the Ottawa River on June 20 at a

local committee of health and environment specialists.

Dr Sattar said more research is needed on the Ottawa River pollution problem and its effect on viral agents in the drinking water; but such research will probably be discontinued because his funding has run out.

Gardening Without Space Do you want to cut down on rising food costs and deterior-

ating food quality by having a garden? Then perhaps a raised-bed

plot is the answer. Intensive raised-bed gardens will mean greater yields and far less work than the traditional yard gardens.

A raised-bed is usually built by stacking railroad ties and then filling this container with topsoil and compost.

A raised mound is an alternative. Plant the seeds quite

close together. Whatever spacing is recommended between plants

in the same row will prove sufficient for the distance between rows in your raise-bed plot. The plants are positioned so that their leaves barely touch. They get ample light, yet

there is not a square inch of wasted space. This foilage

umbrella also retains moisture in the ground and retards weed growth. This in turn means half as much weeding and watering.

Other advantages to raised-bed gardening in the Ottawa

area include: earlier planting as the beds warm up quickly; small size makes for easier cultivation; yields per square foot foot are dramatic; and slugs and crawling weeds cease to be

a problem. The only major disadvantage is the possibility of the

moisture content dropping before the protective umbrella has been establishe0.

GLEBE REPORT page 16 people have taken part in meditation seminars here. Jack has taught at all but one United Church Conference across Canada and has been res- ponsible for teaching the program to Theology students at Universities all over the country.

Things haven't always been smooth sailing for Jack though. When he first arrived it was a bit like stepping onto a battle field.

At that time the congregations of Glebe United, at First andlyon, and St. James United, at Second and Lyon, had agreed to amalgamate, but no decision had been made as to where the newly combined congregation should settle. The ultimate decision to sell the St. James building to the city as a Community Centre and to keep the Glebe building

left some people deeply hurt. A few families saw Jack Birtch as the instigator of the move and left the church at that time.

But over the years the church has healed itself and has accepted a whole host of new members with new ideas of what a church should be. ' A look at the two worship services held at Glebe-St James each Sunday morning is in an indication of how different ideas can co-exist comfort- ably in one congregation. 'The 11 o'clock service in the sanctuary follows the basic United

Church liturgy with choirs,hymns and a sermon. The 9:45 am service, known as Worship II is a mostly unstructured time of singing, games, stories and drama. Some people who have never gone to church before, come to this service. Small children and babies accompany their parents, and are an integral part of the service,"says Jack.

Paula Zoubek

Batik designs are made by pouring or brushing a liquid resist, such as

melted paraffin, on some portions of the fabric and then soaking it in

the dye-bath. The dye colours only the areas free of the resist. One or more colours can be used, or several shades of the same colour, or the

combination of both. This process has been used for

centuries throughout southeast Asia, but it has been worked to perfection in Java. The colours most frequently used are indigo, brown, and brown red.

Personal and unique works can be made at home by the artist without much material.

Natural silk is the favourite mat- erial but other fabrics may be used; light wool, cotton and artificial silk. Beginners start with unbleached cotton.

The tjanting is a little copper bowl with a spout used for drawing with the liquid heated wax. Bees' wax mixed half- and-half with paraffin will produce a different marbling effect than straight paraffin. Carnuba wax, which is very hard and brittle makes for excellent veins.

Two types of dyes are widely used; the direct dyes produce a product which must be dry-cleaned; the cold-water dyes or fibre active dyes are more permanent but slightly more complicated to use.

Paula Zoubek Designer by Mamie Johnstone

Paula Zoubek's art graces the backs (and fronts) of women all over Canada. She is a popular designer for well-known Toronto loungewear manufacturer Claire Haddad and for Sarah's clothing here in Ottawa.

Working out of her third floor studio on Second Avenue, Paula pro- duces glorious batiks and hand-painted textiles in the form of caftans, wrap-around skirts and gowns. Although the clothec, look fragile, they are easy to care for. This artist encourages you to put her work in the washing machine. "All the fabrics have been pre-shrunk and pre-washed," says Paula.

Dreams of a Child Paula dreamed of being a dress-designer when she was a child. Her

great-grandfather and grandfather were famous tailors in cosmopolitan Vienna and she saw her own mother putting clothing together without benefit of pattern. In the Fifties there were no dress design schools in Canada so Paula studied Fine Arts at the University of Toronto.

After Graduation After graduation, she worked for five years in the Royal Ontario

Museum's Textile Department. She is now an expert in ethnic design and uses of fabric. She met Claire Haddad while preparing the contemporary section of a Centennial retrospective of Canadian clothes at the ROM.

Paula married architect Peter Zoubek and their two children have kept her busy at home. By 1972, with both in school, a friend offered to let Paula exhibit in her gallery - in two weeks time. "To my own amazement I completed 18 works in the next two weeks. I started with small pieces but as I went along they grew larger and larger."

Paula says the experience confirmed her love for Batik. Fortunately her friend Claire Haddad eagerly bought and sold Paula's creations. "At that time I worked out of my Toronto kitchen and did most of my dyeing in the bathtub - sometimes sending the family into shock," she admits 3rinning.

Working at Home Paula uses natural themes; the sun, sky,clouds, mountains, flowers

and trees appear often in her work. She loves vibrant colours and un- dulating lines. "Once I sit in front of the material, things grow organically. I love the feel of the fabric and it seems to demand what it needs," Paula muses.

Working from her home takes discipline. After breakfast, Paula marches off to the third floor just as one might head off to the office. She comes downstairs at noon to make lunch for the children, Peter, 13

and Maria, 11. After the noon break, Paula returns to her studio for the afternoon. She breaks Lhis routine with regular trips to Toronto to consult with Haddad about trends and to purchase fabrics. Art supplies come from Montreal.

Last year Paula went back to her textbooks to come up with designs to

suit the King Tut rage. She tried to capture the Egyptian feeling, not

necessarily the style of dress.

Tested in Toronto Market When Paula's designs have been tested and accepted in Toronto, Haddad

ships up the pre-cut fabric and Paula goes to work on the dresses. "If

the design is popular, I will be swamped with orders of 50 to 100 dress-

es", says Paula. She is only producing Fall clothes for Haddad now and

hopes to concentrate more on private sales by appointment. Most of the

clothes she designs are caftans - either worn loose and flowing or

belted. Private prices range from $45 for a cotton wrap-around skirt

to $200 for an elegant floating silk gown.

Exhibits Paula plans to exhibit at Algonquin College in 1980. She has

previously exhibited at the Ontario Craft Guild in Toronto and at the

Gallery of Fine Canadian Crafts in Kingston. She teaches Textile

Surface Design at Carleton University. "I really enjoy the alchemist's

role of mixing up my own formulas for dyes and paints," Paula enthuses.

Though mainly excited about the textile field, she practices her first

love - oil painting,at the family farm in summer.

Heritage Proposals Concern has been raised about the Heritage designation of two areas in

the Glebe. These areas are situated between Bank St. and the Driveway - one centred on Strathcona Avenue and one located between First and Fourth Avenues.

According to the Glebe Neighbourhood Plan, development and demolition control, as well as a grant program are to be utilized to "protect and enhance the districts' special character" and to guide alterations.

Several residents were concerned that they will have to ask the city's approval before any kind of change can be made to their property. They would like to see the heritage proposals examined separately by the res- idents of these areas because of the implications.
