Winter says the feasability group started work on the project about four months ago and that he has financial backing he would describe only as “a company from Montreal”, which he says is “one of the top cutting tool companies in Canada in its line" but that the latter is awaiting a decision from Ottawa before making any formal agreements.“I have to be careful about what I say until the study is complete," Winter explains, “because See DESPITE page 2 SHERBROOKE (CB> - The 502 public-sector workers and six unions that would have broken all the records at the Sherbrooke Courthouse Monday were sent home without getting their names in the Eastern Townships version of the Guinness book.The 502 are charged with violating sections of the Quebec Labor Code in connection with the illegal strike of government, hospital, public-school and junior college employees three weeks ago.They were all served summonses along with the six unions charged with contributing to the lawbreaking, and told to appear in Provincial Court Monday.But the Court was unprepared for the onslaught and sent the few who appeared home with a new rendezvous with justice.Some of the postponements had been arranged between lawyers for the unions and courthouse officials, but some of the alleged illegal strikers only found out about the delay when they got to Wellington Street at 9:30 a m.If all 502 had appeared they would have more than quadrupled the normal court roll and far exceeded the previous records.set during the heyday of Maurice Duplessis, and the ‘white night of black smoke' during the early 1970s when massive drug raids saw hundreds charged with possession and trafficking.As in the previous incidents the Quebec Ponce Force provided several members of its local riot squad for the occasion.But unlike the two earlier record-setting confrontations.Monday's affair was quiet as only a dozen or so accused actually showed up and there were no incidents.The 52-page roll of alleged labor-law violators was presented to Provincial Court Judge Yvon Roberge.First up was the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Sherbrooke (CHU), which filed a private complaint against its own unions, a CSN affiliate for the blue collars and the Eastern Townships nurses syndicate, as well as officials and members of both.Next the Quebec Procurer-General, represented by Crown prosecutor Charles C repeau, laid charges against the unions, employees and professors of the CEGEP de Sherbrooke, as well as the union, officers and members of the Champlain College (Lennoxville) teachers union.I SN lawyer \ von Marchand represented all the accused, who are alleged to have violated the Quebec Labor Code by striking while a collective agreement was in loroe.The labor contracts had been extended beyond their normal expiry date of December 31, 1982.by Quebec’s controversial law’s 70 and 105.No charges have .vet been laid under even-more- Slack’s crew ready to work for free A union official told employees who lost their jobs when Slack’s went broke to keep on picking, for (he future.RECORD NEWS SERVICES WATERLOO — Workers at the bankrupted Slack's Mushrooms plant turned up at work this morning even though they know they will probably never get paid for it.The workers held a special union meeting Monday night to study ways of helping the family-owned firm out of its current financial bind, which could close the company’s doors forever.They decided that the best thing they can do is to keep the Slack’s mushrooms growing.So this morning a group of them went to the plant to save the current crop and its organic underbedding from rotting.They say reopening the plant, under Slack management or with a new owner, will be much more attractive and therefore likely if the mushrooms are alive.Otherwise, they say, a delay of at least four months would be required as a new crop is planted and brought to maturity., “We’re going to be out there picking,’’ union president Paul-Emile Royer said Monday.“We want to save the crop on the bed and also save the bed itself — all the production coming up after this crop.” “There’s money to save there,” he added."We want to save all that.Amax helped to draft own dumping permit OTTAWA (CP) — Amax of Canada Ltd.helped draft a 1979 special permit allowing it to dump tonnes of molybdenum mine tailings into a northern British Columbia inlet, a federal Environment Department official says.And the company was given drafts of the permit two weeks before a government study was completed on how the inlet would be affected by the dumping, says John MacLatchy, legislation adviser in the department’s environmental protection service.Leaked confidential department documents show Amax huddled frequently with top federal officials — and the Privy Council office on at least me occasion — to devise the special permit without public notice or hearings.The permit gave the company permission to dump an average of 12,000 tonnes daily for 25 years into Alice Arm, 140 kilometres north of Prince Rupert near the Alaska panhandle.It also made it possible for Amax to open the Kitsault mine in northern B.C.a year earlier than expected and save about $23 million because it didn't have to build a land-based disposal system.The way in which the permit was granted amid the 1979 election campaign brought public protest and charges of Liberal patronage.Some environmentalists worried that the particles of solid tailings from the dumping — 8,000 times normal levels — would harm Nishga Indians living nearby who eat fish from the local water system.The tailings include lead, arsenic, mercury, radium 226 and cadmium While studies so far have detected little impact of the dumping, officials concede there may be long-term problems.“The bank, they’re not interested because they don’t want to lose no more money, they claim, but by leaving the mushrooms on the bed like this and spoiling the rest of the crop, they’re losing a lot of money.I don’t know if they know that by now.” “We've got a political situation right now at Slack’s, and they (the Quebec government) promised us a lot of help but we don't have a lot of movement going on and we want to make more pressure to be sure somebody's going to move in the dossier and make some investments, no matter what,” Royer said.“Even if isn’t the bank we just want to show that the workers are determined." “The bank is only there to save their money I think, to take more than that if possible.They don’t care about employees or anyone else.They only care about their - f .RE( (IRIM’EKRY HEATON dollars.” “Us we care about saving Slack's.It's our job." “We live in this part of the country and it’s a big enterprise for the region and we want to save Slack’s no matter what.We want to save Slack's that’s all." “We want to start by picking, taking the mushrooms off the bed and try to keep the chambers (the cold rooms the mushrooms grow in) in good condition, in case wu got a new buyer or anything else, or a new guy going to invest in it.” “We’ve got all kinds of problems with the production.The weather played a lot of tricks this winter and last summer.It plays a lot of tricks on us and we don’t have enough control in the rooms to control the temperature in the house.Like that we See WE page 3 controversial law 111, which threatens strikers with fines, loss of seniority and firings if they even discuss walking out.The hospital workers were told to reappear March 21, the teachers June 2 and 3.It was rumored in the courthouse that only a few accused will actually be tried from among the more than 22,000 charged across Quebec.Meanwhile an ad-hoc committee of la-hoi and constitutional lawyers has been meeting to try and find ways of overturning the radical laws.They may take the case all the way to the Supreme Court — delaying even.longer the strikers’ date with justice.Canada oil pact shaky OTTAWA (CP) — An energy agreement intended to keep the price of most Canadian oil well below the world price might not survive intact much more than another two weeks, the federal and Alberta governments indicated Monday.The Canadian price is already near its limit compared to the falling international price, but the two governments hinted it will stay there even though it should fall if world prices continue to plunge.This means that Canadian consumers — already paying an average of about 50 cents a gallon more for gasoline than U S.motorists — should not expect any immediate benefit from lower world prices.Alberta and Ottawa disagree over a provision stipulating that the wellhead price for domestic crude should stay at 75 per cent of the international price, Alberta Premier Peter Lougheed said after a luncheon meeting with Prime Minister Trudeau and Energy Minister Jean Chretien.Both governments already face a giant loss of anticipated revenues during the next two years because prices are not rising as expected when the agreement was signed.Ixnigheed said he is willing to watch world price developments before proposing any specific measures."The next two weeks are pretty important,” the premier said, adding that was not a deadline for changing the energy agreement.Meantime, consumer gasoline prices are scheduled to rise by at least 2.5 cents a litre or 11 cents a gallon Wednesday to reflect a $4-a-barrel increase that brought the domestic wellhead price to $29.75 Jan.1.Canadian gas prices at the pump are much higher than those in the U.S., and in reality reflect world crude prices or higher, because of federal and provincial taxes.\ Regan to fight U.S.lumber law WASHINGTON (CP) - Remedial action is being planned in case a current U.S.inquiry leads to punitive action against Canadian lumber imports, Canadian Trade Minister Gerald Regan said Monday.Speaking after a private meeting with U.S.Commerce Secretary Malcolm Baldrige and one week before a pivotal Commerce Department decision, Regan expressed confidence that “the Canadian case is a sound one.’’ But there could still be an unfavorable U.S.ruling, which Regan said would be unfair to Canada.He said a penalty against lumber sales worth $2 billion a year could be disastrous for the Canadian forestry industry, harmful to U.S.economic recovery and unfortunate for U.S.-Canada relations generally.During a news conference Regan referred to possible Canadian “remedies,” but declined to answer questions about what Canada might do to counter any U.S.penalties.Possibilities range all the way from Canadian trade countermeasures to corrective action in Canada designed to get rid of the reason for U.S.penalties The case against Canadian lumber is based on complaints under U.S.trade law last year by about 300 competing U.S.firms grouped as the Coalition for Fair Canadian Lumber Imports.OBJECT TO SUBSIDIES They say 33 separate unfair subsidies by Canadian federal and provincial governments give the imports an unfair and damaging boost in the U.S.market.The main subsidy alleged is the provincial system of allocating timbercutting rights, or so-called stumpage fees, which adds less to production costs than prevalent U.S.bidding methods.The complaint calls for an import penalty of 65 per cent on the border price.The case depends on rulings that the lumber imports are subsidized and that they are injuring the U.S.industry.Regan said the charge that the Canadian stumpage system constitutes a subsidy is “the most scary” of the allegations.Even if that is thrown out, lesser charges could bring penalties that “would still be unfair and would damage our exports.” RFX'ORD/PEKRY HEATON Sherbrooke airport was a hive of activity yesterday as Canada's Search and Rescue specialists did their thing.Search and

Captain Peter Garton of Trenton, Ontario's search and rescue Squadron 424, Garton is among about 75 squadron members taking part for the next two days in search and rescue exercises with their base set up at the Sherbrooke Airport.He says it is unusual not to have had more major emergency calls as has been the case recently.“We’ve had no major searches since last May when a private plane was missing north of Mirabel.It was finally found by a civilian.” He did say they still conduct a fair number of small searches (under one week), but that most of these are false alarms caused by radio beacons being set off accidentally.He says the decrease in search and rescue operations is probably due to the fact that fewer people can afford to fly these days with the economy as it is."Most of our calls are for private planes."

The Starobe ofice, located in the former Beebe school which is owned by a group of 25 Three Villages businessmen, is presently being used by Winter and other local citizens who are giving their free time towards the start tip of the factory.The building is ready for machinery and plans have been drawn on the tloors with chalk throughout the structure showing where each particular piece of machinery will be placed.Renovations to the interior are not expected to be great as a hockey-stick manufacturing company was the previous tenant and electrical wiring, an air compressor system and a loading ramp have already been installed, “It would take about three to four months for us to get into operation," Winter claims.“Right now I am hoping for a definite answer from the federal government by June 1.To be realistic you have to look at that as a start-up date.If we have to wait any longer most of the unemploy ment benefits will have run out and there will be some very desparate people around here." Weathe Sunny today with cloudy periods.High 7, low tonight.-5.Wednesday cloudy, high 4.The Liberal government has giveiy grants to the Border communities but they are, according to Winter, only good as a short-term solution.“They have helped some of the people out immensely and we need things like that to keep it going but like I said you have to have something for the future and Starobe is the answer." A year ago when Butterfield made the closing official with the March 1 announcement the majority of the factory workers said they would not move, either to Smiths Falls, as Butterfield offered, or anywhere else."Only 46 people went up to Smiths Falls," says Wing, "and of that group only 15 have left since they closed down here.” Another ex-worker, who did not want his name used because he felt it could be harmful to others associated with him, said he has heard rumors that all is not well for some of the people in the Ontario community."From what I’ve been told things are quite slow up there and a few people are lust waiting for something to happen here so they can come back.It is like that everywhere though." Whatever the situation in Smiths Falls, it is not comparable to the one in the Border region Winter says.But he says he feels that it is just a matter of time before word comes from Tessier and he will be able to give the green light for construction.While he declines to reveal the name of the company in the background, Ron Winter admits it has been in the background since the start of his project.“They have been involved with us since July but they have to stay out of the spotlight.When the time is right everyone will know who they are.For now they are waiting around just like us.” But the figures lor the final quarter were “consistent with the growing belief that the recession, which began in the summer of 1981, is nearly over,” Statistics Canada said.The main bright spot was an increase in so-called final domestic demand, a combination of consumer, business and government spending.It was just a small increase of 0.7 per cent, but it was the first increase since mid-1981 when the recession began.Gross national product in the final quarter rose two per cent to $356.7 billion — but in real terms, when adjusted for inflation, GNP declined 1.1 per cent, the same rate as the quarter before and lower than the previous two quarters.Finance Minister Marc Lalonde has said the year-end statistics will be important in his final decision-making on budget measures He has said the government wants to stimulate recovery, but will not say how much Ottawa is willing to spend Even without extra measures, he says the federal deficit will climb by about $2 billion in 1983-84 from the current year to about $29 billion, and this is a constraint on how far the government can go He declined comment to reporters on the figures or other subjects.The 1982 figures show wages, salary and supplementary labor income rose only 6.9 per cent, down from a rise of 13.9 per cent in 1981, and overall personal income rose by only 9.7 per cent, a I sharp drop from 16.9 per cent rise ini 1981.Consumer spending fell 2.5 per| cent after rising a little in each of the* previous five years.Corporate profits plunged 33.3 perl cent and investment by business other) than farms in plants, machinery and| equipment was down 16.7 per cent" from I the year before.Exports fell 10.9 per cent in volume.News-in-brief «n____faei ifccora George MacLaren, Publisher 569 9511 Charles Bury, Editor

English-language schooling to children with at least one parent educated in English in Quebec — is unconstitutional.Kidnap-murder link unlikely MONTREAL (CP) — A man arrested here on a kidnapping charge will be questioned by RCMP today to determine il he has any links to the grisly slaying of six people in a British Columbia provincial park last summer.But RCMP Staff Sgt.Jerry Besner said Monday he considers it unlikely that the man is the murder suspect being sought throughout North America.Besner said Andre Decelles, 45.who was arrested T hursday and charged with the three-day abduction of a 14-year-old local girl, bears little resemblance to the composite drawing and description of the B.C.suspect.He said Montreal police alerted the RCMP because Decelles is believed to

telephones, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission ruled Monday.Bell can ask applicants personal financial information in selected cities in Ontario and Quebec during the next six months to see if it’s an effective way to find bad credit risks — as long as it doesn’t use that information to deny anyone a phone, the CRTC said.II Bell finds the process to be effective, it could go bel ore the CRH.later and ask to use credit-screening to determine il deposits are required from people wanting a phone.Bell began the program last November to reduce its multi-million-dollar losses on uncollected accounts, but withdrew it days later when consumers groups and politicians complained.Prisoner gets damage award OTTAWA (CP) — A convicted murderer and prison rights activist has been awarded more than $18,000 in damages because his constitutional rights were violated when he was moved to maximum-security Laval Institute from a medium-security penitentiary.Robert Collin, 47,

billion.Statistics Canada reported Monday.Claims received for 1982 totalled 3.9 million, up 33 per cent from 1981.and the amount paid out was 78 per cent highet than the previous year's total of $4.8 billion, the federal agency said.That leaves the unemployment insurance fund with a cumulative net deficit of $2.4 billion for 1982 and federal officials estimate that continued high unemployment will push it to $4.5 billion by the end of this year.Talks ‘cruising' along OTTAWA (CPi — Canadian and U.S.officials have started work on implementing the controversial weapons-testing agreement signed

government) which was directed at the Caisse, a manager of institutional capital funds.After you Alphonse.YELLOWKNIFE, N.W.T.(CPi — A polite Italian adventurer preparing to walk alone to the North

Steelworkers of America, defending a tentative contract that would immediately cut wages for 266.000 workers, say the concessions are needed to save jobs in the depressed steel industry.The union and representatives of seven major steel companies worked out the tentative agreement Monday.A vote on the pact, which cuts wages by $1.25 an hour, was scheduled today before the union's Basic Steel Industry Conference — a ratifying body of about 250 union local presidents."The companies wanted to get what they could," union vice-president Joseph Odorcich said Monday night after presenting the pact to the conference.“It's no question we gave, but we got some, too." Vegas becomes bomb target LAS VEGAS.New ( APi — Police found dynamite bombs early today at three of the biggest resort hotels on the Las Vegas Strip, but all of them were removed and safely burned, officers said.Guests at two of the hotels were evacuated, and police spread out through the city to warn the managers of the 300 other local hotels and motels to look for any suspicious packages."We get bomb threats all the time." said police Lieut.Harold Miller."This time it was for real.These bombs were left by some nut."

ditched battle with the Quebec government to eliminate tolls altogether.At a meeting in the Lau-rentians Monday .repre- Syrup and sawdust BY JOHN McCAGHEY A lack of snow put the kybosh on plans for the snow sculptures at the Sutton Winter Carnival, however all other activities were going off according to plan on Friday.The lack of snow certainly played merry hell on the economy over the winter with skiers seeking better-packed slopes.Meanwhile the talk quickly got around to the upcoming Tory leadership race when one stalwart “blue” wondered just who was doing what to whom, not to mention who would emerge the winner in Ottawa come June.“I wonder what Gaétan Mireault would have thought of this mess?” he mused.Gaétan was a legend within Union National and Tory ranks in Brome County - usually the unofficial-official do-it-all getting out the vote and knowing just who voted which way.It was also said he knew more roads in the county than rural poshes did — probably very true — having seen him in operation from close range when trails that would hardly accomodate a bicycle were used to contact a lone potential voter.Yup.Gaétan used his car.Meanwhile should Reward Grafftey decide not to try a comeback in Brome-Missisquoi-Stanstead it is understood the county executive is seriously considering the possibility of inviting Brian Mulroney to throw' his hat in the ring.With Reward's backing, and the current discontent, with the Liberals, the Iron Ore prexy should be able to make a clean sweep — assuming he could stand up to Reward's regime of visiting every home in the riding.One of my favorite anecdotes about the “Gnome from Brome” was after he was knocked out by Yves Forest in the Trudeau sweep in 1968.“I knew it was going to be a tough race.” Reward said eyes glistening through his heavy lenses.“There I was, dressed to visit my farmer friends in front of the DOMTEX plant in Magog, waiting for the 3:30 shift to come out when the Creditiste candidate came around the block in a Cadillac longer than Cardinal Leger's!" **** Cowansvillers will probably be informed of two new projects funded by Quebec and Ottawa when council meets tonight.They should total about $530,000— leaving the town with a balance of $70.000 to complete funding to a community centre and a new police and fire station, the latter to be built adjacent to the town hall.Seemed only fitting that Asa “ Acey” Shepard, dean of all the current crib players finally won a tourney.The sage of East Farnham, who has complained of no cards worth a "jingle" managed to come out on top of

fascinating facet of the new craze is they're priced under the average car and only require 6.5 horsepower with a climb rate of 400' per second.I'll have to talk to the manufacturer's to see how one restarts the motor in mid-air.This might just lead to new forms to commuting and a new code of rules — about the same price as a Renault Alliance but one needs more than a driveway to land.sentatives from the Eastern Townships, the North Shore and the Lau-rentians decided to try and eliminate the tolls by November, 1983.“We will concentrate our efforts on convincing the mayors and politicians in these areas that tolls are a hinderance,” said spokesman Paul Mercier.Four autoroutes administered by Quebec’s Transport Ministry were affected by the toll increases from 25 cents to 50 cents last year.The four are the Eastern Townships autoroute to Montreal; the North Shore route from Montreal to Three Rivers; the Mirabel airport route and the Lau-rentian autoroute.The tolls were increased so the Quebec government could obtain added revenues to offset an estimated $3.4 billion deficit.Businessmen and municipal officials have criti-cized the increases, saying they will discourage travel from Montreal to these regions and jeopardize local tourism.Mercier said in a press statement the groups would also try and form local anti-toll groups among citizens before May and that a collective group should be formed from the local chapters before June 15 to organize demonstrations and other protests.Anyone interested in volunteering time to the groups can call 514-430-8000.Continued from

forests.Sherbrooke is also just an hour from Trenton (although they've left two planes in Trenton on stand-by.this group is still on call in ease of a real emergency!, the airport has the facilities we need and there are lots of places to stay ." Garton explained that activities over the three days are divided into three categories: tracing radio put-out, looking for colored panels which are put out, and flying in valleys, all within a hundred-mile radius.The actual searching is conducted from DeHavilland Buffalos which Garton describes as good planes for search and rescue operations.Developed in the 1950s, this plane has been used by the military since the 1960s.The air force has seven in Trenton to answer all emergency calls from Ontario and Quebec.There is always one on stand-by there along with a Huey helicopter for tighter spots.The Buffalo is perfect for the job because it flies slowly, is very maneuverable, provides good visibilty, is able to land in a lot of places and can do short take-offs and landings.Garton says the minimum run-way length required for this plane is 1,500 feet.It has bubble windows in the rear for spotting and can carry lots of gear inclui-ding toboggans full of rescue equipment, rafts, first aid equipment, rations and more.On rescue operations, a crew of six is required: two pilots, two engineers and two search and rescue technicians who do the actual rescuing.In order to become a search and rescue technician, one has to take a rigourous eight-month course in Edmonton.When a real search is on, the plane flies at 1.000 to 1.500 feet in square formations at 100 to 110 knots.If it is rough, they go faster, according to Garton who pilots these planes.He says the spotters can .4 rescue helicopter picks up the 'sun usually spot things tor up to one or two miles to the sides of the planes.He says they sometimes recruit healthy civilians to help with this arduous task and keep a given spotter in place for only about 15 minutes after which he can no longer see straight, so to speak.He says there is sometimes a problem with airsickness as the spotters’ seats are located near the tail of the plane where there is more activity than in the front.He says it often gets quite hot back there and there is much noise, so most people resort to wearing head-sets.Garton says that when they receive an .if.T ivors ' Mt- emergency call, the two planes on standby can take off immediately and start the search according to the information they have been given on the people, their destination, plane or boat-type and so forth.This information is obviously updated continuously as more becomes available.II they find nothing, the squadron will set up a temporary headquarters at the airport or base nearest to the suspected site of the accident.They work from there until they find whatever or whomever they're looking for.The search master recommends how long to continue if the search is movo MtRRirr chiton Iruitless, but the final decision is made by the Ottawa headquarters.“They generally go along with the search master’s recommendations but not always."

the bank says we make too much loss the last couple months and they gave enough money.The bank only wants the government to say ‘OK.we’ll go in’." “If the government says ‘OK we’re ready to go in’, the bank is still there, I don't think the bank is gonna back up.The bank’s been waiting maybe two months now for the government to say something positive about going in.” Royer said, “They hear talk about it but talk that’s not everything you know, you need action.” “Any signs bank willing to hold off on the sale?Some ways yes, some ways no.You have to understand those guys you’re dealing with, syndics (bankruptcy trustees).Syndics, they have one way to do it: it’s the hard way and that's it.“They don’t want to talk for nothing, they just act, that’s it.” The Slack’s closure followed mysteriously on the heels of a new financing arrangement approved by the 80-year-old firm’s creditors a few weeks ago.At that time, all parties involved, including the Bank of Montreal, the accounting trustees and a trust company, said the new arrangements were satisfactory.But suddenly Friday the plug was pulled, the entrances were padlocked, bankruptcy declared and 250 workers were on the street, unemployed.One of the biggest mushroom plants in Canada, Slack’s was a major employer in Waterloo, which has a population of about 5.200.At press time Tuesday, a group of four union representatives was inside the plant negotiating with the trustees’ officials.Another 150 or more union members were outside, waiting to go in and pick the mushrooms.Via service opened SHERBROOKE (SM) — In an effort to make up for the lack of passenger train service in the area, a local bus company has introduced a daily bus express service to a Via station in Drummond ville.Called the Sherbrooke-Drummondville Train-Bus intermodality, it will mean taking an hour-long bus ride to board a Via train going to Montreal, Quebec City or Halifax.The service was initiated Monday.It involves Via-rail and Bourgeois bus lines of Drummondville.which has rights to the Sherbrooke to Drummondville route.Bourgeois will offer three buses daily from Sherbrooke's King Street terminus, at 7:15 a.m., 12:15 and 8:40 p.m.to meet corresponding Drummondville train departures.The service is also more costly, as the $6.80 price of the bus is added to the regular V’a fare.For example, it will cost a total of $19.80 for one-way travel to Quebec City.The trip will also take longer than when Via provided service from Sherbrooke.The same trip to Quebec City with the bus service will take two hours and 50 minutes, but Bourgeois and Via would not say whether that includes the half-hour wait in Drummondville between bus and train.There is also no guarantee the service will be maintained for a long period of time.The two companies warn that the service will exist as long as demand is sufficient.“Our investment will be justified as long as an important percentage of them (auto travellers) takes advantage of the intermodal service." Those interested in the service can buy their tickets either together at a travel agency in Sherbrooke or separately at the Sherbrooke terminus and the Drummondville Via station.Don’t forget to GIVE before you go Union president Paul-Emile Royer asked workers to show up this morning.Be a RED CROSS Blood Donor La Quotidienne Winning Number , 1-5-9-6 Bonus: 321469 PALL NEWMAN CHARLOTTE RAMPLING IACK WARDEN an® Cinéma CAPIT0L 59 Kng est 5BS-OTT1 Weekdays and Saturday: Author 7 00.Verdict 9:00 Sunday Author t 30 7 00 Verdict 3 30 9 10 4—The RECORD—Tuesday.March 1.1983 #1___fol tsecnm The Voice of the Eastern Townships since 1897 Editorial What else?Where will justice begin and end in the provincial government’s dealings with the various teacher bargaining units?Education Minister Dr.Camille Laurin says the government has no surplus funds available and cutbacks must be imposed.Although he has deigned to meet with the bargaining representatives, one can only imagine this will be another exercise in futility as the doctor apparently wants to fulfil all George Orwell’s thoughts vis-a-vis big brother’ next year.Quebec presently loses $1X2 million a year on the SIDBEC plant with 700 employees.By the same token it claims it can save about $365 million by firing between 600 and 700 teachers over the next three years.The public at large has no direct knowledge of how much the province spent acquiring the Asbestos Corporation, another real winner with declining markets thanks to the inherent health risks.The government has announced its readiness to invest $100 million in the establishment of a French-owned aluminum smelter, presumably to utilize some of Hydro’s excess power.Yet ALCAN, a known world leader in both raw and finished aluminum products with a solid base in the province, earlier announced their readiness to construct a new smelter in the Chicouti-mi-Jonquiere region — presumably with little if any government funding.One sometimes wonders il Quebec could properly manage a nickel pay toilet.Dr.Laurin and the cabinet apparently misread the emotions of the community at large when they decided to abrogate the Quebec Human Rights Charter in the imposition of Bill 111.They suggested, then immediately retracted the idea, of going to the people and letting the electorate pass final judgment.They have three more years to complete their mandate and they certainly don’t wish to imperil all the perks.Possibly we ll see another referendum.This may prove to be the golden moment Laurin has been seeking to take the power away from the school boards and place all educational matters directly in the hands of the mandarins in Quebec.The so-called parent advisors would have no power.Present boards are fully aware of just how hard it is to form school committees, even without giving them the operational responsibility on a volunteer basis.Education in the province has gone through many upheavals since the 1960s, generally bettering the quality of the product.When the government voided human rights in the imposition of Bill 111 it made a callous display of how little value it places on humanity as a whole.Especially being able to live in harmony with one's neighbor.When that is gone what else is good in life?JOHN McCAGHEY Both German leaders are Hitler Youth vets BONN (AP) — West German Chancellor Helmut Kohl and election challenger Hans-Jochen Vogel both belonged to the Hitler Youth, their parties said Sunday following a newspaper article about Vogel that his supporters called election-time “character assassination." The article, published by the conservative Bild am Sonntag with the headline “In The Hitler Youth We Feared Vogel," claimed the Social Democratic party candidate had been a squad leader of the Nazi youth movement during the Second World War.The Social Democratic party told The Associated Press that Vogel was a member of the Hitler Youth because membership was required, but was not a squad leader.The AP called Kohl’s office for comment and was told the chancellor also was a member of the youth group.“Everyone had to be," said Walter von Tiesenhausen, a spokesman for the governing Christian Democrats who face a challenge from Vogel in next Sunday's [xi rliamontary elect ion.He added that at the end of the Second World War, Kohl, then 15, was pulled into a defence training camp and was preparing to take up arms when he was briefly taken prisoner by American forces in Bavaria.Until the mid-1930s, membership in the Hitler Youth was voluntary.After that, Hitler's government required membership of non-Jewish Germans over the age of 14 and fear of reprisals reduced the number of resisters to a small group.KECAI.BS INCIDENT The newspaper article quoted a 52-year-old veterinarian, Ernst Holler, as saying he recalled that Vogel had been a "culture commissioner" in the Giessen branch of the Hitler Youth organization.Holler said Vogel had once demoted him to the rank of "cub" in the organization for getting into a fight.The Social Democrats, in a statement released in Bonn, acknowledged Vogel had been a member of the Hitler Youth in 1941 and 1942 “as (were) all those of the same age.” The statement denied that Vogel, then 16.had ever betni a squad leader but said he had been responsible for theatre, music and cultural activities of the Giessen organization.Vogel also fought with the German army and was taken prisoner in Italy in 1945 during a battle between German and Allied forces.Earlier Sunday, Kohl said in a radio interview that West Germans should have no illusions about Soviet nuclear missiles, “because the missiles — think of the over 300 Soviet SS-20 rockets now existing, that are aimed at Europe are of course also aimed at targets in West Germany." He called for talks between the East and West Germany to “flank" the disarmament talks between the superpowers in Geneva, Switzerland.Outside support for IRA angers innocent victim BURLINGTON,

through London is angry at North Americans who contribute to the “senseless violence” caused by the Irish Republican Army.“What angers me is people in North America who sit in their comfortable bungalows sending cash to the IRA as part of some high ideal.” says Diane Elder.“There are some in Toronto.They say ‘If someone gets killed — well, that's the price you have to pay.'” Elder, 39, a medical technologist and infection control officer at McMaster Medical Centre in nearby Hamilton, became a victim of the IRA last July 20 while on vacation.The bombing was the first of two blasts that rocked London that day, killing nine soldiers and wounding 52 civilians.“Anybody could be travelling in the wrong place at the wrong time.” Elder was.She and her fiance, Dr.James Thornley, were in England to visit their birthplace.STROLLS IN PARK Elder was strolling through Hyde Park that sunny day, on her way to the world-famous Harrod's to shop for gifts to bring home to her teenaged daughters.Startled by the sound of horses, she looked up to the pageantry of the Queen’s Household Cavalry about a metre away, riding to the changing of the guard ceremony at Buckingham Palace.Elder reached into her purse, lifted her camera to her eyes.It’s the last move she remembers.A bomb filled with greased nails, between 10 and 15 centimetres long, burst from the roof of a car parked beside her.The nails ripped into her face, leaving jagged gashes.Later, Thornley was told by Scotland Yard that the nails hurled out of the bomb at an estimated 800 kilometres an hour.The nails are dipped in grease and oil to leave a black deposit embedded in the skin of their victim.Elder was thrown to the ground, her skull fractured.The blast burst both her eardrums, causing 40-per-cent deafness in one ear.Her face and most of her body received burns.Twisted shards of metal from the bombed car did the worst damage.One piece cut off Elder’s right foot above the ankle.There are cuts to the bone across both up-pper legs.Pieces of shrapnel still studded in her skin painfully work their way out.WEEKS IN HOSPITAL Elder spent seven weeks in Westminster Hospital in London.Three of the horse guards, who fell in a twisted heap of bloodied horses and troops, died in the hospital’s intensive care unit while she was there.She needed dental surgery.Her front teeth and all her fillings had been knocked out.She recently underwent plastic surgery, the first of three operations required to dig out the dark stains from her face cuts.She is awaiting an operation to correct an eardrum that didn't heal.Elder walks firmly with the aid of a prosthesis.a false leg and foot that fits like a thick glove over her own right leg from the knee down, and fits into her shoe.Although she went back to work last month, she has trouble walking for long periods, as is required by her job.Airplane travel, also part of her job.has become more difficult because of the changes in air pressure.Her car had to be adjusted for a left foot accelerator.She is troubled by “flashbacks," the alarming memory of pain, the fear of being unable to breathe.She is applying to the British Criminal Injuries Compensation Board for money to compensate for her pain and suffering.But Elder wants to get on with her life.Right now, she's not afraid to take another chance on Britain and is planning another trip.“I’m not saying what I’ll feel when I get off the plane.” •J'1 momwfpo HQTHINS FOR THF POOR-HSiL, IFITVASNrFOR US ' THSRF MOUW’r % e © 0 B.C.Green force now a political presence VANCOUVER (CP) — Adrianne Carr suffers no delusions of forming the government in the next provincial election But the president of the newly formed Green party of B.C.says the pro-environment, anti-nuclear group will one day be a force in provincial politics and, in the short run, will force existing powers to change their priorities.“All you have to do is look at support for things like the uranium moratorium in B.C.three years ago, which was very widespread and prompted the government to act,” said Carr in an interview in her Langara College office.“Look at the referendum that accompanied the municipal elections in B.C.last year and support ranging in the order of plus 70 per cent for nuclear disarmanent.” Carr, 30, says the party received its initial inspiration from the Green party of West Germany and realized the movement was spreading across Western Europe.Since its inception in 1979, the West German party has captured roughly six per cent of the national vote, she said.The geography instructor says the B.C.party was born out of the frustration of trying to effect change within the political system and philosophical differences between its members and the New Democratic Party.LOBBY UNSUCCESSFUL Carr and other environmental activists thought the NDP was sympathetic to their cause.However, they parted company last fall when Carr and others lobbied unsuccessfully at the NDP convention for an emergency resolution to prevent industrial development in several key wilderness areas.After the resolution was blocked.Carr and her environmental cohorts retreated to discuss their frustrations.They agreed that the trade-off between jobs and the wilderness they felt the NDP was making was not in line with their philosophy.“Another example might be in the trade-off that has traditionally gone on between resource elimination and jobs," says Carr.“I’m thinking particularly of the alder trees in the forest that we use herbicides to destroy because it provides for a faster re-growth of the other types of trees we traditionally use.“What’s happening of course is that we’re getting a polluted environment, streams, water supply and fisheries, while eliminating a tree that is more economically sound in terms of the renewal of the soil in the forests." WRONG MENTALITY* Carr says political parties in the province have to rid themselves of the “boom and bust mentality” and start thinking about long-term employment.“Dams employ people, but for how long?” She said the party advocates small-scale development, with an emphasis on agriculture.The prospect of being seen by some as screaming, environmental fanatics, doesn't irk Carr, who says the party will work within the current political system and doesn't advocate civil disobedience as a way of creating change.She shakes her head when asked to respond to criticism she heads a one-issue party."It's a misnomer.If you look at it this way, the Social Credit puts emphasis on the concerns of business, while the NDP have placed an emphasis on labor and social issues.All we’re saying is we’ve put a priority on the environment.” Kiss-and-make-up time for bickering neighbors By Cuti Mol I ins WASHINGTON (CP) — Canadian and U S.government officials go to work this week to try to patch up some cross border quarrels before the arguments combine to wreck an armistice between the Trudeau and Reagan governments.A series of private talks in both capitals will centre on differences about transborder transactions in lumber and natural gas, pollution and air travel.Diplomats on both sides insist the current irritants are nothing worse than that But there is also a nervous awareness that relations between Ottawa and Washington are still tender from the sometimes bruising diplomatic hostilities through 1981 and half of 1982.The old arguments, still officially unresovled.centred primarily on details of Ottawa's energy and investment policies But they were fuelled fundamentally by a basic ideological divergence between Reagan Republicans and Trudeau Liberals.The gentlest Washington critics described Ottawa's policies then as nationalist, the toughest attacked them as socialist and anti-American.Canadian officials fumed privately about pushy Americans and U S.commercial imperialism Hostilities have been suppressed for the last six months or so because of the combined influence of diverted attention and Canadian concessions, cabinet changes and altered circumstances The basic Reagan-Trudeau policy disputes were tranquillized, at least for a time, when they were referred last year to international trade organizations and the Trudeau government yielded some points to U.S critics.Perhaps more important to the relationship, George Shultz took over last summer as U.S state secretary and Allan MacEachen, an old friend, returned soon afterward as Canada's external affairs minister.Peace vows were consummated last October in Ottawa, where the pair agreed to get together at least four times a year to monitor the armistice.They met in Brussels in December and are trying to settle on a mid-April date for another get-together in Washington.Assisting the new mood of amity, Canadian diplomats had believed, was Ottawa's agreement to let the Americans test war weapons in Canada.SCORED POINTS The Canadians believed the Trudeau government had built up a stack of diplomatic credits in Washington by wading through the heat of domestic criticism to complete the controversial weapons deal.Shultz said as much only Friday when he publicly stressed the importance of the weapons pact.His comment came pointedly at a moment when other elements of the Reagan administration were behaving as though Ottawa had run out of brownie points altogether A U.S.Justice Department functionary ruled that three films produced by the National Film Board of Canada — critical of Reagan’s military and environmental policies — must carry political-propaganda labels.This was denounced by politicians in both countries.The U.S.Civil Aeronautics Board abruptly outlawed, then temporarily restored under State Department prodding, cut-price weekend flights across the border that threatened to strand some Air Canada passengers.ISSUES TRIVIAL But those aggravations are relatively trivial, Canadian officials say, aga nst other U.S.moves that menace trade, profits and jobs in Canada These include an application to impose import penalties against Canadian lumber imports, valued at about $2 billion a year, and pressure to cut the border price of natural gas imports, worth about $5 billion annually.In the latest of a series of Canadian lobbying efforts against the lumber penalties.Trade Minister Gerald Regan meets U.S.Commerce Secretary Malcolm Baldrige today for the second time in four months A Commerce Department ruling in the case is due

Tin- RECORD—Tut stlay.Man h I.I9S:1—5 Farm and Business #1___fte.l Kama Ottawa planning big crow freight rate battle advertising campaign OTTAWA (CP) - The federal government is planning a $350,000 advertising assault to regain the initiative in the war of words raging around its $3.7-billion plan to raise the Crowsnest Pass grain freight rates, government officials say.But it wants to avoid a replay of the embarrassment it suffered from a clumsily-worded ad that appeared in the Montreal Gazette last week.The full-page ad was translated from a French-language ad run in Quebec new spapers earlier to counter a flood of anti-Crow’ commercials from a coalition of Quebec farm groups and the provincial agriculture department The ad read Adieu Corbeau (Goodby Crow) in French but the English title reads The Crow Goes Without a Flap, a peculiar title considering the constant attacks on the plan since it was announced a month ago by Transport Minister Jean-Luc Pepin Up to eight departments could be involved in the blitz that could see western daily and farm newspapers stuffed with inserts detailing the advantages of Pepin's plan and debunking the claims of its many opponents.A Pepin spokesman said the Transport Department may send a letter to OPEC no longer wields big stick in world pricing NEW YORK (AP) — For the first time since it shook the world by quadrupling oil prices almost a decade ago, OPEC has lost its cherished role of price-fixer.The result: open competition could drive oil prices startlingly low, benefitting many oil-importing countries and further straining the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.Although most industrial countries are helped by lower prices, the benefits are somewhat more dubious for Canada, a net oil exporter.Lower prices would initially benefit consumers in the form of cheaper gasoline and home heating oil.But both the federal and provincial governments would take in less revenue in the form ol1 royalties and taxes, creating even greater deficits.As well, hard to reach petroleum deposits in the Beaufort Sea and elsewhere might become prohibitively expensive to develop.Signs of the waning power of OPEC have been growing for months.Its oil sales now are estimated to be less than half the 1979 peak of 31 million barrels a day.And last year, for the first time since oil prices began skyrocketing in 1974.non-Communist countries that do not belong to OPEC sold more oil than the cartel — 22.2 million barrels a dav versus 19.3 million.HURT BY SUCCESS But the starkest evidence came last week when several OPEC leaders opened negotiations with Britain, Norway and Mexico — emerging oil powers that threaten OPEC's future.OPEC was tacitly acknowledging it needed help.In the past, OPEC acted alone; its domination of the world oil market allowed it to ignore other oil producers and raise prices more than tenfold from 1974 through 1980.But OPEC was snared by its own trap: the higher prices encouraged oil companies to develop more costly reser%’es in non-OPEC countries and in such places as the North Sea.Meanwhile, consumers learned to conserve and to use other fuels.An oil glut emerged in 1981, and the 13 members of OPEC have been unable to agree on price changes or production cuts that could eliminate the excess oil.“Their decisions no longer completely affect the price of oil." said S.Fred Singer, an energy specialist at the Heritage Foundation in Washington.“They no longer are in control.” While OPEC has clung for almost 18 months to a base price of $34 a barrel, virtually every other oil-exporting country now is selling its oil for about $30.As a result, the major western companies have been buying more and more from non-OPEC sources.Some OPEC members want to lower their prices to increase sales.But they fear Britain or Mexico might undercut them, resulting in a price war.Western analysts believe oil prices, now at a world average of slightly less than $33 a barrel, will drop to between $28 and $30 within weeks.A few economists even predict competition will drive the price to $20 before long.The actions of Venezuela, a founding member of OPEC and one of its biggest producers, are a good illustration of the new concern about British and Mexican co-operation.Early last week, a delegation of Venezuelan oil officials met with Mexican officials in Mexico City to discuss their common interest: keeping oil prices from collapsing.The Venezuelans then flew to London for talks on Thursday.A day later, one group of Venezuelans was off to Norway while another travelled to Paris, where it met with oil officials from Algeria and Kuwait, plus a Mexican delegation.RULE WEAKENED There were these other signs of OPEC's weakening role: — Nigeria, one of OPEC’s biggest producers, abandoned the group a week ago by cutting its price $5.50 to $30 U.S.a barrel.The Nigerians were reacting to Britain’s announcement a day earlier that it was reducing the price of North Sea oil by $3.Nigeria was saying, in effect, that Britain's price was more important than OPEC's.— Ecuador, the second smallest OPEC member and a minor oil exporter, said it was deserting the OPEC base price in an effort to keep its market share.Officials said Ecuador would let its price float with the market, which meant it no longer believed OPEC could make its prices stick.— Mana Saeed Oteiba.oil minister of the United Arab Emirates, declared after Nigeria cut its price that the OPEC benchmark price of $34 was “no longer relevant." MUST MATCH PRICE Nigeria’s oil minister, Yahaya Dikko, said his country must match any further price reductions by Britain, since Nigerian oil competes directly with that from the North Sea.Other Nigerian officials said they saw no point in holding an OPEC meeting now unless Britain agreed to coordinate prices.None of this means the 22-year-old cartel is about to disappear, however."While there may be some changes in the strength of the organization, I don't think you’ll see it break up,” said Jack Stabback, a senior vice-president and head of energy research at the Royal Bank of Canada in Calgary.Saudi Arabia, in particular, still carries a lot of weight in the oil world.It is still the world’s largest oil exporter and it holds one-quarter of the planet’s known reserves.As well, its cost of production may be the lowest in the world.If OPEC can muddle through the present crisis, economic recovery in the West might lead to a pickup in demand and a firming of prices later this year, industry analysts say.Critics slam hail research as good money after bad EDMONTON (CP) — The Alberta government has pumped about $20 million into a weather modification program that has produced no conclusive results after nearly a decade.Critics say the Alberta Hail Project may even be doing harm as silver iodide continues to be injected into all central Alberta hail clouds larger than 25,000 thousand square kilometres.Farmers want the clouds “seeded” because they are convinced silver iodide stunts hailstone growth and therefore protects their crops — “and they out-vote the scientists." one critic noted.There have been suggestions in Saskatchewan that Alberta’s cloud seeding adversely affects the rainfall in other areas.“The feeling in Saskatchewan was: keep your cotton-pickin' hands off our rainfall." said Saskatchewan scientist John Maybank.The government is in the middle of its second five-year hail program and even at the end of this program, “it’s unlikely we’ll be able to prove our ability to affect precipitation on the ground,” said Brian Barge, head of atmospheric sciences at the Alberta Research Council.Critics say the scientific potential of the exercise was jeopardized when the government bowed to political pressure and let farmers have their way.Under the direction of the Agriculture Department.Barge and his researchers must seed every hail cloud they can in a 130-kilometre radius south of Red Deer during the hail season.The researchers also had to seed all clouds in a similar radius north of Red Deer each year for five years until costs forced a reduction.“I know that many farmers are vehement in their feeling that it works but from a scientific point of view it's impossible to tell,” said G.Brant Foote, senior scientist at the National Centre for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo.“There is the potential that seeding might increase the hail." “At this stage of knowledge, my view of hail suppression in particular is that results are very, very iffy.” said Louis Battan of Arizona, one of the top meteorologists in the United States.A BETTER WAY Meteorologists say Barge is on the right track with case-study research he recently piggy-backed onto the operational seeding.But to seed widely and then try to find out what you're doing by looking inside the clouds is like “they've given the patient the pill and now the patient is dead so they're performing an autopsy to see what the patient died from.” said Battan."The fairly definitive conclusions the world meteorological community has come to is that weather modification .will be advanced only by a two-pronged approach — physical observation on the one hand and randomized seeding programs on the other." said Prof.W.F.Hitschfeld of McGill University.western farmers explaining what Pepin was proposing and replying to accusations made by opponents.That approach was used last summer to explain the report on Manitoba economist Clay Gilson prepared after months of negotiations with farm groups on how the 86 year-old Crow rate should be raised to help western agriculture.The Gilson recommendations formed the basis of Pepin’s plan.Pepin is to introduce legislation later this year to double the Crow rate by 1985 and raise it five times the present level by 1991.An annual federal payment of $651 million is to be split 50-50 between the railways and farmers.But the farmers' share of the payment amid rise to 80 per cent by 1991.A federal spokesman said ministers have been studying an advertising campaign and they want something ready to go in case the Prairie wheat pools on the Saskatchewan government start a publicity blitz.The wheat pools are supposed to have already prepared an advertising plan that attacks the Pepin plan The ad in The Gazette disturbed several federal ministers even though it was prepared for Agriculture Minister Eugene Whelan and approved by Consumer Affairs Minister Andre Quelle! Parts of the ad were badly translated by a Montreal advertising agency.The most irritating blunder was the claim in the English version that said: “Higher transportation costs will prevent western pork and beef producers from becoming more competitive with their eastern counterparts in traditional markets." In French, the ad says the Crow changes won’t give western livestock producers a marked advantage over eastern producers in their traditional markets: Central Canada.Eastern U.S.and Japan The ad was condemned by Conservative and New Democrat MPs, who say the Liberals are telling western farmers and eastern farmers different versions of the story.They say the westerners are told the Crow changes will allow the West's livestock industry to expand while eastern farmers are told the increased production will have a negligible impact on them Commission says applications discriminate OTTAWA tCP) — Prominent employers such as CP Air and the Royal Bank may be breaking the law by distributing job application forms asking persons about their age, sex.physical disabilities or health, says an official of the Canadian Human Rights Commission.Section 8 of the Canadian Human Rights Act forbids employers from circulating application forms that will result in discrimination against persons because of race, national or ethnic origin, color, religion.age.sex.marital status or physical disability.Nevertheless, some employers covered by the act seek, directly or indirectly, such information about applicants.The Canadian Press randomly chose nine application forms from employers within the commission’s jurisdiction and asked Catherine Burr, chief of the systemic discrimination section, to review them.She identified a variety of questions as possible grounds for an applicant to file a complaint of discrimination.Traditionally, the commission has concerned itself with determining whether information gleaned from application forms has been used to discriminate against groups of people and not whether the actual forms contravene the law.“Is asking those questions against the law?” Burr asked rhetorically.“That's never been tested.” But a test case might just prove the questions themselves are discriminatory, she said.Some questions which might initially appear discriminatory are acceptable if they are truly related to an applicant's ability to do a job.Questions on certain physical disabilities would be acceptable, for example, in jobs requiring heavy manual labor.Information related to age and marital status may be required for income tax or other administrative purposes, but should not be asked until after an applicant has been officially offered a job.Burr said.The form

results for Associated Kellog Ltd.Kellogg, Imperial Oil Ltd.and the Northern Alberta Building Trades Council last October began a productivity enhancement program — the first of its kind in .Canada — at Project Alpha, the upgrading of Imperial’s Strathcona Refinery.The program, called Productivity Results in Individuals' Desire for Efficiency, or PRIDE, tries to motivate workers by improving the work environment.promoting teamwork and rewarding achievement, OTTAWA (CP) Profits of Canadian industry continued to drop in the fourth quarter of 1982, but the rate of decline slowed significantly.Statistics Canada said Monday.Net after-tax profits of Canadian industrial corporations totalled nearly $2.4 billion in the fourth quarter, down 27.5 per cent from a year earlier.That brought year-end profits to $9.5 billion, down 45.4 per cent from 1981.Sales for 1982 totalled $490.9 billion, down two per cent from the previous year.Despite the plunge.Statistics Canada said the figures "indicate a significant slowing in the rate of decline’’ in the fourth quarter.Declines in the previous two quarters had surpassed 50 per cent when compared with the same periods a year earlier Further, the figures for seasonally adjusted pre-tax profits show an increase during the final half of 1982 of one per cent, after quarterly declines since mid-1981 of about f6 per cent per quarter A key reason for the brighter profit picture in the final quarter of 1982 was an increase in oil prices which helped boost the mineral fuels and related industries PROFITS RISE The mineral fuels sector recorded the largest increase in Walt Wyckol’f, Kellogg's senior construction manager on Project Alpha.said PRIDE evolved from a program developed in the U.S.last year in response to a “tremendous drop in construction by union contractors all across .the country” and falling productivity.To be successful, he said.PRIDE needs the support of all parties.The 850 workers at Project Alpha were initially skeptical of PRIDE because they saw it as a trick to get them to work harder.ATTITUDES CHANGED But their attitudes have changed.PRIDE coordinator Dennis Murphy said the program focuses on solving problems profits for the quarter, rising 58 per cent from the same period in 1981 to a net $640 million, as revenues climbed 22 per cent, exploration costs were cul and efficiency programs chopped other costs.rather than attributing blame.Weekly seminars on human relations and motivation are well-attended.though voluntary and held during off hours.David Fagan, manager of construction labor rela- -tions, said even business, managers and agents from unions attend the sessions “because they want to make (PRIDE) work too.” And there is the competition aspect.Prizes such as beer mugs and trays are awarded for achievement and attendance and each week, the best team of workers is allowed to fly a special flag at their work area.Wyckoff said PRIDE’s results are overwhelming.Since October, absenteeism has dropped to five per cent from 17 per cent and Kellogg’s cost factor (a ratio of actual to budgeted costs) has dropped 50 per cent.Peter Evans, Kellogg’s vice-president and general manager of construction.said programs like PRIDE can result in savings of up to 10 times their cosl — savings which may be passed on to the client.Career Are You A Retired

directly, but did ask them to state whether they are Mr., Mrs.or Miss.That question is not discriminatory, Burr says, but it could cause a job applicant to believe sex is important to the job.CP Air does ask applicants directly for their age and marital status, two prohibited grounds of discrimination.Several questions relate to data on other family members — information that could be used indirectly to discriminate.Burr said.The commission told CP Air two years ago its application forms should be changed.The airline promised to review them, but is still circulating the same forms.Air Canada appears to have a more acceptable form but, like CP Air, asked applicants for their height and weight — areas that can result in discrimination against women and certain racial groups of a smaller stature than Anglo Saxon males.Burr frowned upon reading nine ques tions related to health on an application form for the Montreal-based Royal Bank of Canada.One question asked: “Are you currently on a program of prescribed drugs (exclud ing birth control pills) or medication?” Diabetics or epileptics who must con stantly use prescribed drugs could find themselves being screened out by a per sonnel officer who incorrectly believes the disease prevents them from working as bank tellers, said Burr.Two other banks, the Toronto Dominion and Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, were less inquisitive about medical problems.The only possible reference to health on the Toronto-Dominion form asked: “Are you aware of any reason why you cannot fulfill the requirements of the position applied for?” PARLIAMENT TOO Burr was not prepared to give a blanket endorsement ofthe application forms used for work on Parliament Hill.In the Senate form, applicants are asked to state if they are Canadian citizens, and if so, by birth or naturalization.Such a question could result in discrimination against certain ethnic groups.The House of Commons form asks for the year in which applicants completed secondary school a question that gives personnel officers a good idea ofthe age of the applicant.The Public Service Commission form, used by most government departments, asks applicants if they are veterans or widows of veterans.The Public Service Employment Act allows the government to give preference to veterans or their widows in employment.But asking an applicant to say if he or she is a veteran or a veteran's widow immediately reveals the applicant’s sex.The National Capital Commission form posed a problem Burr preferred not to discuss.LANGUAGE AN ISSUE Applicants are asked to state their “mother tongue” — a question that could result in discrimination against certain ethnic groups.A better question would be simply to ask which official language an applicant prefers to use, human rights officials say.Burr’s reluctance to comment on the issue results from the fact the commission is studying complaints by Dan McKenzie, Progressive Conservative MP for Winnipeg-Assiniboine.that some government departments discriminate against certain ethnic groups by giving preference to the hiring of francophones.The commission has been pondering the “mother tongue” issue for about a year and has not yet reached a conclusion.NOW.EASY CONNECTIONS TO QUEBEC CITY ANDTHE MARITIMES.VIA now offers, in cooperation with les autobus Bourgeois, a new daily bus

simple text to determine which child should be seen by a professional for further evaluation.Those 30 seconds invested in children between the ages of 10 and 14 could save a lifetime of agony, disability and crushing doctor bills.If scoliosis is not treated while a child is still growing, about one in five cases will worsen into adulthood, as mine did.The lungs become compressed and the heart enlarged from rib rotation.Surgery to correct such a condition is not only painful but costly.If detected early enough, the wearing of a brace in many instances may make surgery unnecessary.Here

spades and continued with the deuce, Edgar would have been down one.As it was.Edgar made a board-a-match play to give his team a win The normal way to play hearts is to play dummy's king first.Edgar figured that the no-trump player at the other table would have no reason to try any other play so Edgar won the diamond return with his queen.Then he led the nine of hearts and let it ride A repeat of the finesse let him pick up the suit and he wound up with five hearts, two diamonds and four clubs for five-odd.His score of 650 won the board by 20 points over the other table (NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE

pot luck supper -an event now past that proved so successful that all hope for repeats.The “Life in the Spirit" Seminar commenced February 6 and will continue for seven weeks to March 20.The course is a series of teachings used widely in the Christian church across North America to meet various needs.It will be led by Murray and Diana Henderson who have led several such sessions in the past and they will also be assisted by the Reverend Wilmur Davidson from Waterloo.Meetings are scheduled for 7 p.m.each Sunday in the church hall.If curious but not too sure if the seminars are for you - come and decide for yourself.For information call Father Henderson at the church office - 243-5787 or at the Rectory - 243-5916.The popular little book table is re-opening immediately according to Diana Hendersom, the organizer behind the project.She has picked up a new selection of books.Success so far is indicated in that close to 200 books have been sold since the little stand was set up last fall.Parishioners appreciate being able to secure the books here instead of going into Montreal for them.Items sold include Bibles, devotional books, novels, books on prayer, Advent candles, Advent calendars and book markers.It is a non-profit venture, all books selling at cost price.A coming feature in following issues of our News will be a short article by Di on the various books offered.Plans are in the works for an All Star Hockey Game: St.Paul's Hockey team will be playing an exhibition game against St.Michael's Church from Pierrefonds at either the Waterloo or Bromont Arena early in April.You will have never heard about this hockey team before because it has never played a game before - nor held a practice - nor scored a goal.Inexperienced as they are, but spurred on by former St.Mike’s players Murray Henderson and Stewart Whitehead it has been decided to challenge the city team.Anyone interested in playing is most welcome to join in the fun.They should contact Frank Main at 243-6854.St.Mike’s players and their wives will probbly return to the church hall after the game for refreshments - so it promises a good time.Another nice time -Come for Coffee - a reminder of a period of fellowship after the 10 a.m.service each Sunday.The idea is people can come together and chat for 10 minutes - 30 minutes as they choose.In this small town it is surprising how many fellow parishioners only come together once a week at church.Coffee time is a great way to get to know others better - a small but important way to build up Christian fellowship at St.Paul’s.There is juice for the youngsters -

thanks to an idea from Lloyd Herman just now evolving.“Welcome Neighbour” is a committee set up jointly by our three churches to assure newcomers to the community are visited by someone of their group and welcome both the community and to the church of their faith.A fairly comprehensive directory covering churches, schools, clinics and most social organizations has already been prepared by the committee and several visits already made to establish a “better feel” of the project.It is then that volunteers will come forward, willing to visit any newco-mers and extend neighbourly greetings.If interested in taking part in the program contact Clairg Kerrigan, Lloyd Herman or Frank Main, Jr.The Deanery Bible Study group has seen one of the most exciting areas of growth in St.Paul’s in re- cent months.Meeting once a month since November, the study is a direct result of the Scotty Clarke Mission n which many anglicans throughout the Deanery felt satisfaction in coming together as a group to study and share.An average of 20 to 25 from parishes of Brome, Sutton, Waterloo, Knowlton and West Brome meet at St.Paul’s, Knowlton, the second Saturday of each month at 10 a.m.in the church hall.Murray Henderson and Wilmur Davidson have alternated in leading the studies.Some amusing sketches accompanied by some equally entertaining verse told what’s happening in the nursery.How Roger Page and Gordie Ladd got out hammers, saw and clamp, together with Mike Sharman and Lawrence Page.Foam was put on bare walls which were cold and often damp.Billy Partridge was called to look after plumbing and Frank Simms came to see what he could do about the heat.The next step was some panelling to beautify the walls and protect the room from flying things like trucks and balls.The jingle ends: “The kids are pleased EVENING OF CHANCE (Monday & Tuesday) See Our Giant Screen February 28 & March 1st APRIL WINE—9:00 Unique: L Émerillon S its satellite antenna 80 channels of television JL*.or so it seems, They say it’s really nice, And couldn’t look any better, they say Had it been done by Fisher Price."

Cheney 569-9388 t \ 10—The RECORD—Tuesday, March 1.1983 Sports fTpfrfllul Overall championship at Games down to wire CHICOUTIMI, Que (CP) - The heavyweights at the Canada Winter Games, Ontario and Quebec, are battling down to the wire for the overall Games championship.Going into the final day, Quebec had 182 points, seven more than Ontario, which also trailed the host province narrowly in the medal count.But Ontario had more athletes in today’s competitions.Meanwhile, a battle between Canada’s two westernmost provinces for third place also intensified.British Columbia led Alberta 139-138.Ontario picked up eight gold medals Monday for a total of 28, two behind Quebec, which won only two events.Quebec had 30 gold, 33 silver and 22 bronze to Ontario’s 28-17-19.B C was third at 12-8-16 and Alberta fourth at 7-10-8.Andrea Thomas led the Ontario assault Monday, winning two golds and a silver in women’s gymnastics finals.Thomas, 14, of Markham, won the uneven bars and floor exercises, and placed second in the vault competition.Jessica Tudos of Toronto added to Ontario’s gold count with a win in the beam event.Sandra Botnen of Vancouver was second and Tracy Wilson of North Vancouver third.Wilson also won a bronze in floor exercises.WINS GOLD Brigitte Lepage of Montreal won Quebec’s only gymnastics gold in the vault, in which Christinia Fon of Montreal was third.Ontario women, who earlier this week won the team gymnastic competition, swept the uneven bars — Andrea Owoc of Mississauga was second and Tudos third behind Thomas.Janice Kerr of Toronto was third in floor exercises.Ontario coach Mary-LeePalmer said she expected Thomas to place well in all her events.“She is becoming a seasoned competitor,” Palmer said.‘‘She is just getting better and better.” In hockey semifinals the winning teams outscored the opposition by a total of 24-4 B.C.dumped Quebec 9-1 and powerful Ontario trounced Saskatchewan 15-3.Ontario and B.C.play tonight for the title.Quebec and Saskatchewan battle for the bronze Ontario’s specialty teams scored 12 goals — 10 on the power play and two short-handed — in the lopsided win over Saskatchewan.B.C.wasted no time against Quebec, scoring just 24 seconds into the game and adding a second goal at 1:45 and a third less than two minutes later.“We got a big jump on Quebec early and I think that may have been one of their problems,” said B.C.coach Colin Patterson.“They have a better hockey team than they showed here.” Alberta, which traditionally dominates team synchronized swim- ming at the Games, took the team gold, edging Ontario and B.C., who won the silver and bronze, respectively.Other events wrapping up today were men’s and women’s curling, men's gymnastics, wrestling and table tennis.High-flying Rangers thump grounded Pens Jets lose to Alpines in dying minutes Fredericton Express, playing their sixth game in seven nights, beat Hershey Bears 3-2 in American Hockey League action Monday night.The Express did all their scoring in the first period to take a 3-0 lead in the game which was originally scheduled for Feb.12 but was postponed because of a snow storm in Hershey.In the only other AHL game Monday night, Moncton Alpines edged Sherbrooke Jets 4-3.While the Express, 36-21-8, have stumbled to win four of their last seven games, their Northern-Division lead has been expanded to 13 points from seven — thanks to the sub-par play recently of their two division rivals, Nova Scotia Voyageurs and Maine Mariners.Andy Schliebener started the Express on their way Monday night at the 1:36 mark Blair MacDonald scored just under four minutes later and Moe Lemay banged in a power-play goal at 19:27 to get the eventual game winner.Hershey’s Vic Morin, taking note of a two-man power-play advantage, gave the Bears their first goal in the second.Using another power-play advantage, Chris Valentine scored for the Bears at 4:05 of the third Goalie Ken Ellacott then shut the door the rest of the way for his second win in three nights.Ellacott had 36 shots aimed at him while Dave Parro of the Bears faced 31.Alpines I Jets 3 Moncton’s Joe McDonnell scored at 17:30 in the third period to break a 3-3 tie and give his team its 4-3 victory over Sherbrooke.The win places Moncton within nine points of the fourth-place Adirondack Bed Wings in the Northern Division Tim Trimper scored two goals for Sherbrooke and Tom Gibson also had a goal Todd Bidner, Lowell Loveday and Paul Mulvey also scored for Moncton, which outshot Sherbrooke 33-22.New York Rangers have surfaced from the depths of a two-week scoring slump with a torrent of goals.The Rangers registered their third straight home-ice rout Monday night as Mike Rogers had two goals and two assists in a 9-3 National Hockey League victory over Pittsburgh Penguins.In the only other NHL game Monday night, Boston Bruins doubled Toronto Maple Leafs 6-3.New York now has scored a total of 50 goals in its last eight games, with 29 of them coming in those three one-sided victories here — 11-3 over Hartford Whalers and 9-4 against Winnipeg Jets in addition to the win over the Penguins.“Everything we shoot at home seems to be going in,” said Don Maloney, who had a goal and two assists.Maloney, Rogers and Eddie Johnstone, who also collected a goal and two assists, have been the red-hot line for the Rangers in their recent romps.NICE TO GET GOALS “It’s nice to be scoring some goals,” said Johnstone, who missed two months because of injuries.“We’re doing nothing different — we’re just scoring again.” Rob McClanahan, Anders Hedberg, Vaslav Nedomansky, Nick Fotiu and Mikko Leinonen also scored for the Rangers while Rick Kehoe, Mike Bullard and Paul Gardner replied for the Penguins.The Rangers scored five power-play goals in a game for the first time this season in routing the Penguins, who have lost 17 in a row on the road.New York’s success might stem from having assistant coach Walter Tkaczuk work with the power-play units in practice.“Now we work on the power play every day in practice,” said Johnstone.“We have to move around more and be a little more creative.“Then we make things

circuit has been plagued by weather problems this season and the Canadians ran into more of the same last week at the national championship in Rossland, B.C.Poor weather hampered training, delayed time trials and moved the downhill championship back two days.It was particularly frustrating for team members because they had arrived in Rossland a week early to do some extra training.“We thought we’d be able to get an edge on the Europeans and give the boys a little more training going into the last two World Cup races,” said head coach John Ritchie.Heading into the final two races March 5 at Aspen and March 2 at Lake Louise, Alta., three Canadians will have a chance to grab the overall championship: Ken Read of Calgary, currently seventh with 69 points; defending champion Steve Podborski of Toronto, eighth with 63 points; and Todd Brooker of Paris, Ont., 12th with 43 points.Franz Klammer of Austria leads the standings with 86 points.Sport shorts LONDON (Reuter) A controversial 58th-
