vtz lkinuimi junca aw probation officer puts youths back on track su bruce stapley correspondent despite recent cries that crime increases involving young people point to major flaws in the young offenders act a local probation officer with the ministry of com munity and social service believes things havent really changed in the 21 years hes been on the job wayne mumford of main st east in stouffville doesnt think its time to press the panic button i dont know if theres really more of that kind of thing today or if its just that more is being made of it he says mr mumford notes that while there may be an increase in youth crime in the southern part of york region it would appear to have simply kept pace with population growth our case loads have remained relatively stable in york region hie says mr mumford who logged five years in the army and served as a policeman in orillia before mov ing to stouffville 20 years ago also believes the young of fenders act is on the whole a good piece of legislation it the act has done away with a lot of abuses in the past it was easy to have a kid put away for bad behavior he says now the focus is on what the youth actually did just like in adult court he feels however that part of the reason for the difficulties sur- jennifer hicke is pleased to announce that pauline ho bscpt mcpa physiotherapist has joined the staff of the markham physiotherapy clinic 144 main st markham n suite 203 markham village lanes 4714259 evening appointments available rounding the act is the fact that the government was not ready for it when it was passed they werent prepared for the young offenders act it had been in the works for 20 years and they really werent expecting it to be passed he notes foremost among the needs he sees as being top priority in the area of dealing with young of fenders involves bettering the conditions of those who must ad minister the direct rehabilitation of young people id like to see the people work ing at the front lines the child care workers in group homes for instance given more training benefits and security he says the government has been play ing catchup i feel we need more services mr mumfordss own respon sibilities involve writing predispositions for convicted young offenders as well as supervising those on probation we supervise mostly by home visits he says most young of fenders are put on probation we work with the kids to make sure theyre doing their community service work we visit schools and deal with problems as they arise are kids different today i dont think they have changed that much they are more aware of their rights they question what we give them they are not willing to accept their treatment custody or charges he notes thats both good and bad i feel and while new trends come and go he sees the same old pro blems cropping up year after year take drug use for exam ple people are making such a big thing about all the drugs that are around today he says there was more of a drug problem in the 1960s and 70s then it was heroin and glue sniffing today crack has become the drug of the day mr mumford claims most of the young offenders he deals with get back on track after their first brush with the law the majority of my case load of kids straighten out go on to get married get a job and have kids but there are some repeaters he explains i think its almost a there but for the grace of god kind of thing in that we all make mistakes when we are young a lot of people blow this kind of thing out of proportion if you hold up a variety store a few times people want you strung up he continues but what about all the white collar crime that goes undetected all the time uis co do your fur a favor and put it on ice in our modern cold storage vaults

financial centre open store hours eatons second floor markville centre markham 4791922 fr laurentian financial services if you ask the so called experts what is the most universal ar tificial lure in use today most of them without blinking an eye will answer the lead head jig originally a saltwater fishing innovation it became a freshwater angling revolution in the late 1950s and early 1960s when it was discovered that the jig would also take inland sport fish especially walleyes and bass further discussion with those same pros would also reveal that if they were ever limited to one fishing lure their choice would invariably be the jig yet while this artificial angling device has been around for a long time its surprising to find many present day anglers either dont know how to use it or shun it altogether thats unfortunate in more ways than one probably the most obvious reason even occasional anglers should include jigging in their bag of finny tricks is the fact that jigs really catch fish on days when others are coming in empty handed the hot rodders using jigs will be spinning their reels and like a lot of fishermen they wont be devulging their secret whatever the season the prime reason that jigs are so successful is that they allow the angler complete control over the depth and speed at which they are presented in some ways jig fishing can be compared to fly fishing where the fisherman ap plies his or her personal touch to the art of outfoxing the fish you for example provide the jigs action by moving your rod tip to bounce stop or swim the jig along the bottom at the rate of retrieve you desire and like fly fishing too jig fishing is a ge nuine sport whose effectiveness can be increased not only with practice but by gaining the knowledge of the feeding habits of your quarry here is where the versatility of the jig comes to the fore if for instance walleyes are foraging for bait fish near the bottom a plain undressed jig hook can have a minnow added similarly a worm or other live bait can be tried as the circumstances dictate at other times jigs dressed with hair feathers or a plastic grub can be used to imitate the natural foods on which the fish are feeding by choosing the cor rect weight light for shallow water and a heavy model for deep places an angler can fish successfully at any desired depth while there are dozens of dif ferent shapes of jigs available the simple uncomplicated round head design is a good all purpose model as are others like the banana jig featuring an upturned nose that helps it to ride over snags and the bullet head which is ideal for verticle jigging as in ice fishing because half the weight is forward of the line attachment quite likely the best jig for walleyes when using live min nows is the standup jig designed so that the bend of the hook points upward with the minnow off the bottom when at rest this model when so rigged calls for a really slow retrieve a good rule of thumb for choosing a jig size is 18 oz for water up to 10 feet deep oz or 38 oz in depths of 30 feet or so and a oz for any deeper water next time youre going walleye fishing take some jigs along after catching your first keeper fish check its stomach contents and match that crayfish shiner dragonfly nymph or whatevers there with a comparable size and coloured jig when you start catching fish regularly youll have found the key to the fine art of jigging which by the way is often as not a simple and patient slow retrieve tips clips changing the water in your birdbath every few days will keep the mosquito lar
