There were 18 patients transported with other medical problems, in- ciuding emergency transfers and another 47 patients were transpor- ted from one medical facility to another or home after a stay in the hospital. Whitby Ambulance also provided 30 stan- dbys to area services and seven imes during the week an ambulance was disppatched and then cancelled whiie enroute to the caîl.

The number to cail for ambulance service in Whitby is 723-5232. 76 Baldwin St. Brooklin 655-4229 id training as war horses ,e for Austria's Hapsburg - Empire which they ser- ved for over 300 years. ;e Ridden into battie by the ie Austrian nobiiity, the s'animais' fantastic leaps and plunges terrorized the enemy. once horses became obsolete in battle, the Lipizzans were used ex- tensively for the art of refined horsemanship by the nobility and many riding schools sprang up, the best known and longest lasting being the Spanish School of Vien- na - 50 named because Spain was the Lipizzans' country of origin. Many people have come to know and ad- mire the stallions through the Wait Disney film "Miracle of the White Stallions" which depicts the dramatic story of how Col. Herr- mann and his father saved the stallions first from the Nazis and later, with the help of General Patton, from the Russians. Col. Herrmann is a direct decendant of the Knight Ritter von Schoebel who first began breeding the animais in Austria more than 300 years ago and the Herrmanns have continuèd to breed and train them ever since. Today, Col. Herrmann views the stallions' per- formances as being more than just a superb horse show; in his estimation, the perfor- mances are a recoun- ting of history and his immense pride in the stallionsý is as much a product of their history as it is a respect for their tremendous skiii and beauty. The Royal Lipizzan Staliions' tour of On- tario this spring is spon- sored by the Ontario Humane Society and proceeds fromn the tour will be used to help finance the construction of an Equine Rescue and Rehabilitation Cen- tre. Plans for the centre have already been drawn up but construc- tion is contingent upon funding. The centre will be a home,f'or abused and neglected. horses until new homes can be found for them.
