RED GRAPEFRUIT Small Box $13.00 Tange Durham York MPP says Davis' retirement came as a surprise Like just about everyone else in the pro- vince, Durham York MPP Ross Stevenson says he too was "somewhat surprised" by the Thanksgiving Day announcement that Premier Wiliam Davis is retiring from active political life Mr. Stevenson told the Star late Tuesday after- noon that even though he had been expecting an announcement that Mr. Davis would either retire or call a fall election, he had no idea what it would be until the Premier's press conference on Monday afternoon. "I'm disappointed to see such a good leader of the Party decide to retire from politics," said Mr. Stevenson. -He went on to say that the mood around Queens Park on Tuesday was mixed as both party col- leagues and opposition politicians paid tribute to the Premier and came to the realization that an era in Ontario politics is drawing to a close. Mr. Stevenson said the Premier is leaving politics at a time when the Conservative Party in Ontario is enjoying widespread popularity. When asked what it was about Mr. Davis that generated such populari- ty among Ontario people, Mr. Stevenson said two things: his uncanny understanding of so many different sectors of society in this province, and his sensitivity as a human being. "He kept in touch with the grass roots in On- tario, not just contacts with business people on economic matters," said the Durham York MPP. And even though he didn't often display it in public, Mr. Stevenson said the Premier is "a very sensitive person." "When you met him and got to know him, you came to understand just how deeply he felt about people," said Mr. Steven- son, who was first elected to the Legislature just over three years ago. He went on to say that Mr. Davis allowed his ministers a lot of freedom in Cabinet, but when the time came for an unpopular decision, he could make it, stick with it and expected others to stick with it as well. A leadership conven- tion is expected to be called for mid-January, and although nobody has officially declared his candidacy, those ex- Anti-smoking project (From page 1) but one of the first things students will be asked to do is fill out a questionnaire on such things as how much they know about smoking, their behavior, beliefs and attitudes, whether convenient Orlando, Fort Qlass' non-stop, wide-bodied service, featuring a delicious meal served on Royal Doulton china, imported wines. stereo head phones, plus many extra little touches.

Mrs. Hewitt said she doesn't know what per centage of elementary school students are us- ing tobacco these days, but she did say that by grade six most have tried it once and this is the age where they may make up their minds on smoking. "Our goal (with the project) is to have children make the decis- ion not to smoke. We want to teach a healthy life-style', she said. The Pilot Project will be evaluated and if it is found to be satisfactory, it will be introduced throughout the Region in 1985-86 consultation with the Lung Assoc- iation. Ultimately, the goal of this project and others like it, is to have a generation of non- smokers. Statistics show that about two- thirds of Canadians are non-smokers. However, among young people, more girls take up smoking than boys. Not only are the health hazards associat- ed with smoking well documented (lung, cancer, heart disease, respiratory ailments) studies show that non- smokers can suffer harmful effects from 'second hand smoke". - 7%, pected to seek the posi- tion are treasurer Larry Grossman, agriculture minister Dennis Tim- brell, attorney general Roy McMurtry, and justice minister Gordon | Walker. Mr. Stevenson, who is currently the Parliamen- tary assistant to Mr. Grossman in the Legislature, declined to say at this time which leadership candidate he will support. "I don't even know who is officially in the race at this time," he told the Star. He did say he expects that Durham York will send 10 voting delegates and ten alternates to the leadership convention, which likely will be held in Toronto. And he said riding associations can be expected to start holding meetings to choose those delegates. some time in late November or early December. Mr. Davis has been Premier of Ontario since 1971. He was first elected to the Legislature in 1959 and in the early sixties was education minister. When asked if the Par- ty is going to miss him, Mr. Stevenson replied: "Sure. Of course we are going to miss him. But there are other good peo- ple waiting to take over." in Ontario; should be sent to: Neal T.
