Winter John James 72, by Steve Pona residents of Wildwood Park in fort Garry have launched an ambitious Experiment in Community crime Preven Tion to try to Stem a growing tide of weekend rowdiness and vandalism. The normally tranquil enclave of about 250 houses has been disrupted during the last few years by Waves of noisy late night revellers on the Banks of the nearby red River. Jesse Rieber an area resident says the situation is at its worst in warm weather and becomes serious enough that we have 15 to 20 people Down in three spots drinking every Friday or saturday night generally raising hell and smashing bottles All Over the one resident said that last year there were As Many As 30 vehicles lining the Riverbank. Parties and loud Rock music last until about 3 . Rieber chairman of a Wildwood Community club task Force set up to Deal with the problem said police have been unable to respond adequately to their complaints and people Are getting a Little fed cars and trucks have been driven atop a 15-foot Dike skirting one Edge of the Community across soccer Fields and the grass at the wild Wood club Golf course. Vandalism at the course last year was estimated at there have been a handful of As saults in the last years but one police spokesman said that compared to other areas Wildwood Park is still considered one of the quietest communities in fort Garry. Help themselves unaccustomed to the increasing crime and unwilling to accept it wild Wood residents have decided to suck in their gut and help themselves. They briefly discussed a proposal to hire a police Force but rejected it. The task Force coordinating the Effort in Stead settled on a five Point plan involving the Community. Rieber said under the plan being phased into effect he and one other person will venture out nights to speak to troublemakers on their own turf. Rieber a professional policy analyst said they will not patrol the area but will respond to complaints. He said he is not worried about getting into trouble because he is not going out with my fists clenched looking for a he expects to be Able to reason with them. The alternative is that there Are a number of adults who would like to beat their brains he said. If somehow we Don t get this under control one of my fears is we May end up with a confrontation Between adults who have had enough and kids who think they can to Whai they the plan also Calls for residents to visit schools to discuss vandalism with students. Incidents Are being publicized in the Community newsletter. Rieber said for the plan to work residents must be educated about what they can do to discourage crime. For example during the summer residents Are being asked to turn on outside lights on weekend nights. The measures already have attracted attention from other parts of the City. Organizations from other neighbourhoods have asked to come in and sit on our task Force because their prob lems Are even he said. Philosophy emerging the initiatives have put Wildwood residents on the leading Edge of an emerging philosophy in Community crime prevention. Phyllis Webster a longtime wild Wood resident explained people re Alize that Security and safety Are not just a police regard that the Community itself has to help that people have to be responsible for it Rick Linden a University of Manitoba professor of criminology said i think that s probably the direction crime prevention programs Are going to go just because the other kinds of crime prevention programs Haven t been All that Alexander Mclver Manitoba society of criminology chairman said the Community abdicated its responsibility to take care of its own when it created a police Force and it s Only when things Are getting out of hand that it will go Back to its old Way and begin looking after itself again. I think it s a Good thing. I think an individual living in a Community knowing the Community cares about itself is going to feel More secure in living in that fort Garry police spokesman sgt Reg Walpole said residents of wild Wood Park Are used to having it very very quiet. A Little bit of noise a theft of a Law chair it s a major Rieber said when police have been called in the past we Don t get a car very often or As fast As we he said police Are understaffed for the area they cover. They re not going to come Down at Midnight to Deal with my Lawn chair when they have two accidents and an attempted murder somewhere in their District. Obviously just asking the police to take care of it is not totally sufficient if the Community is not willing to take care of its own kids if they re not willing to take on some responsibility for their own safety Protection and functioning then it s very unlikely that a handful of police Are going to be Able to do it on their Schreyer will attend George Barker burial by Bob Lowrey Winnipeg free press a Nipigon . De Schreyer plans to attend the funeral tomorrow of George Barker longtime chief of the hollow water Indian band in this East Lake Winnipeg Community. Barker 84, died wednesday at the Pine Falls Hospital. He was a lifelong Friend of the Schreyer family.
