6 - the Canadien Champion, Frilay, October 22,19e9- ~COMMENT Alleged assault now inFidl the hands of the courts While some bave said attending town counicil meetings can be an assault on good sense, it rarely leads to a physical confrontation. But a Milton man is now facing an assault charge after two feuding neighbours took their differences one step further at the doors of Town Hall. As reported elsewhere in the paper, the dispute began over a zoning application made by Mr. Martins, wbicb was tumned-down by counicil. ~ Not surprisingly, reports on the occurrence vary wildly. The accused, Antonio Martins, 52, denies the incident outright. The alleged victim, Joseph Saliba, 75, begs to disagree, and tbe version of Mr. Martin's lawyer, Peter Pickfield of Turkstra Mazza, falis some- where in tbe middle. But by ail accounits, bad blood has often flowed between the two residents. It's now up to the courts to determine the trutb. Frterecord, disappointment over a counicil ruling is properly deait with by appealling to the Ontario Municipal Board, as Mr. batn as promised to do. Iisn't dealt witb tbrougb fisticuffs, especially at the doors of Town Hal. If it did happen, for shamne. O UR ýREADERS WRITE ~ ~ ~Szechuan just won 't be the same without you Dear Editor: We're writing to let tise commu- nity know tisat Szechuan Wok will ha closing attise month's end. Mr. and Mrs. Kwok bave been deligisting Milton witb some of thse best cuisine for eight years. Our famiiy and friends have aiways enjoyed dining at the restaurant. Tise food is fabulous, my favourite is 'Shanghai Noodies'. I bave neyer found a restaurant tisai serves titis disis and is iisted as one of tise Szechuan specialities, as it sisould ha. Tise Kwoks have been known for having jazz playîng and being a totai non-smoking restaurant, pos- sibly a risk, but much appreciated -- titank you. Unfortunateiy, Mr. Kwok now suffers from a bad back so bis future occupation ils uncertain at titis time.
