WASHINGTON (CP) — Prime Minister Mulroney has promised to chart a course independent of the United States on foreign policy while striking an agreement with President Reagan to intensify the working relationship between the two neighbors.Mulroney said Tuesday his Conservative government wants closer relations with Washington and thinks Reagan should consult more with such middle-sized powers as Canada on arms control and other global issues.Mulroney cited former Liberal prime minister Trudeau’s peace ini- tiative as “very much in the Canadian tradition of middle-sized powers determined not to let matters rest exclusively with the superpowers.” The two leaders, who met with reporters after their meeting in the Oval Office, said they have agreed to meet at least once a year, to continue quarterly meetings between their external affairs minister and state secretary as well as to order regular meetings between other cabinet members to deepen relations and prevent bilateral problems.The said they have touched on bilateral issues such as acid rain, regio- nal free trade, energy and investment policies, but left negotiations to External Affairs Minister Joe Clark and State Secretary George Shultz.Clark and Shultz will meet Oct.15-16 in Canada.ATTENDS CEREMONY Mulroney and Reagan also attended a ceremony honoring Canadian participation in the U.S.space shuttle program, including Canada’s contribution of the $110-million robot Cana-darm and the eight-day voyage next month of Marc Garneau, Canada’s first astronaut, on the Challenger space mission.Mulroney commended the president for offering a new conciliatory approach to the Soviet Union in Reagan’s UN speech Monday on arms control, While Mulroney emphasized his desire for closer ties with the United States in the hope of improving Canada’s economic fortunes, he made it clear in the departure statement that he does not want to jeopardize Canadian independence in policy making or relegate his country to a subservient status.The prime minister also said Canadians believe “that there is no ope- ning too modest for him (Reagan) to pursue with the Soviets in the pursuit of a durable peace.” U.S.officials considered the Mulroney meeting in part as a Reagan effort to consult allies before his meeting with Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko on Friday.Mulroney also squelched speculation that he might replace Allan Go-tlieb, Canada’s ambassador in Washington, with a Conservative appointee.He told the president Gotlieb is to remain in Washington.Gotlieb’s four-year appointment expires in December 1985.Die-hard nationalists named to PQ cabinet Typical country weather ¦iJ A!

cabinet Tuesday in an apparent move to shore up unity in the Parti Québécois before the next Quebec election.Louise Harel, 38, a strong proponent of Quebec independence who has been openly critical of Levesque, was named minister of cultural communities and immigration, replacing an ailing Gerald Godin.Marcel Leger, 54, a former environment minister and longtime party stalwart, was named minister of tourism, a department that was grafted onto the Industry and Commerce Department in 1976.Dropped from cabinet in 1982, Leger went on to found the PQ’s federal counterpart, the Parti Nationaliste.He resigned as the party’s leader several months before its disastrous showing in the Sept.4 federal election.The appointments were interpreted by opposition critics as Levesque’s way of muting internal party dissension and tuning up election preparations.Quebecers last went to the polls in 1981.There have been public and,private party squabbles since June, when a policy conference decreed that a vote for the PQ in the next election would Liberals tried to stop trip — Lévesque QUEBEC (CP) — Premier Rene Levesque confirmed a published report Tuesday that former prime ministers Pierre Trudeau and John Turner had refused to give him permission to visit Shanghai on a trip to the Far East.Levesque leaves Thursday on a 16-day trip to China, Japan and Hong Kong.Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, shortly after his election Sept.4, reversed the previous decision and gave him the go-ahead, Levesque said.“It’s true it was blocked for mysterious reasons,” he told reporters in a brief scrum after the swearing-in of two new cabinet ministers.Foreign trips by provincial premiers require approval from Ottawa.The Department of External Affairs had apparently turned down Levesque’s request to visit Shanghai as well as Peking and Canton because Ontario Premier Bill Davis and Alberta premier Peter Lougheed had already visited the city.“It gives you an idea of what went on with that (Liberal) government,” Levesque said.“I mentioned it to Mr.Mulroney asking him if he had time to take a look at it because it didn’t make sense.“But that’s the way it was,” under the Liberals.“It gives you an idea of the lengths some people went to block us.” Joe Clark., .Handled press well.be considered a vote for independence.Levesque himself has tried to downplay the sovereignty issue as a factor in the next election, which the Liberals expect in early 1985.BIZARRE MOVE “The appointment of Harel is bizarre and astonishing,” said Liberal Leader Robert Bourassa.“On the weekend, we saw her directly contesting the leadership of Mr.Levesque.” Harel, a lawyer and former PQ vice-president, said on the weekend that Levesque made a grave error in June when he told party members to keep quiet about sovereignty.Bourassa said Leger’s administrative competence had been thrown in doubt when Levesque dropped him from cabinet as environment minister.“The only explanation is that he considers Marcel Leger a good election organizer and he wants to move him in for the next election,” said Bourassa.For Denis Moniere, interim Parti Nationaliste leader, the appointments strengthen the nationalist voice in cabinet.“The prime minister is recognizing this group is influential and is giving it the place it deserves,” he said.Leger told reporters in Montreal on Tuesday night he thought his appointment would raise the morale of party members faced with low voter popularity.In making the announcement, Levesque acknowledged the appointments strengthened the more fervent pro-independence faction in the 28-member cabinet.However, he ignored suggestions the appointments were motivated by electoral considerations.SHOULD BE HEARD “They represent opinions about the future of the party that should be heard and there’s no reason they shouldn’t be heard in cabinet,” Levesque said.The main reasons behind the changes were “to stop tourism from being thrown around from one department to another” and to give Godin a chance to convalesce, Levesque said.Godin, who asked to be relieved of his department to recuperate from surgery for an eye injury and brain abscess, will keep responsibility for the Charter of the French Language, better known as Bill 101.Leger, one of the original seven PQ members elected to the assembly in 1970, denied his return to cabinet was a sop to party unity.“There’s no problem of party unity,” he said.“It’s true we are strong nationalists, but that’s good for the option we are fighting for because we have to fight in many arenas.“With Louise Harel and myself, it will be a strong, interesting cabinet with only one goal — to unite all the members of the Parti Québécois for the next election.” Levesque, who made the announcements one day before leaving on a 16-day Asian trip, said Harel will boost the party’s female and Montreal-area representation in cabinet.UNITED NATIONS (CP) — Canada will take a hard look at its foreign policy in the coming months, possibly through parliamentary review, says Joe Clark, the new external affairs minister.Clark did well in handling Canadian reporters bombarding him with questions Tuesday about differences between the new Progressive Conservative and the defeated Liberal administrations in foreign affairs.He told a media luncheon at the Canadian UN mission that the Tory government is contemplating a “virtually no-holds-barred public review" of Canadian foreign policy.“We have not determined what form it would take, whether it would be by parliamentary committee or MONCTON, N.B.(CP) — The Queen, star of New Brunswick’s 200th birthday party, came bearing the gift of high praise Tuesday when she celebrated the province’s history with a tribute to cultural tolerance and harmony.Capping a long day enlivened by the cheers of children in Fredericton and fireworks and futuristic lasers in Moncton, she told a gala dinner that New Brunswick stands as an example to all in the struggle to end conflict between cultural groups.“The French and British at first fought over this land but their descendants learned to live here in harmony and to have a common purpose,” she said.New Brunswick is Canada’s only officially bilingual province, with about two-thirds of the population English-speaking and a third French-speaking.The two groups descend largely from Loyalists who fled the American Revolution and Acadians who were deposed by the Crown, later to return.The Queen and Prince Philip leave for Ottawa today on the third day of their tour.First, the Queen visits Sackville in southern New Brunswick while Philip stays in the area to dedicate a cenotaph and present Duke of Edinburgh awards.CITES SUCCESS The Queen, in a possible allusion to the Acadian expulsion of 1755, told the dinner guests that New Brunswickers have “proven that intolerance can be overcome.” Speaking after about 400 guests had some other means,” Clark said.But, he said he shouldn’t wet répertoriai appetites since it would be several months before details of such a review are known.Later, Clark told the UN General Assembly the new government elected on Sept.4 will respect Canada’s traditional role as a moderating influence in world affairs.There were no new initiatives in Clark’s maiden speech, which concentrated on peace and security and reform of the United Nations which already is being severely crippled by big power rivalry.The idea of the United Nations is as important now as at any time in its See UN, page 2 dined on Atlantic halibut and stuffed pheasant, she said New Brunswick also deserves praise for its role in the debate and negotiations leading to the proclamation of the new Canadian Constitution.Premier Richard Hatfield, host of the dinner and a personal fan of royalty, was an early and strong supporter of constitutional patriation.In fact, he caused a stir more than a year before the 1982 constitutional accord when he told a London audience that Canada might have to make a unilateral declaration of independence if the British Parliament, under pressure from politicians in Canada, blocked patriation.Almost 12 hours of public activity ended with the Queen and Prince Philip standing on their balcony at the Hotel Beausejour as fireworks lit the night, red lasers played off the walls PEKING (AP) — China and Britain initialed a historic agreement today that will put Hong Kong, the world’s third largest financial centre and Asia’s busiest port, under China’s control on July 1, 1997.The end of a century and a half of British colonial rule of the thriving capitalist port of 5.5 million people was marked by a formal half-hour ceremony in the Great Hall of the People at Peking’s Tiananmen Square.Britain’s chief negotiator termed it a “solemn” event, while his Chinese counterpart said it was “worth celebrating.” The agreement follows two years of hard bargaining in which Britain at first refused to concede sovereignty, and then sought a residual administrative role after the expiration of its 99-year lease on the New Territories — 92 per cent of the colony After 22 rounds of negotiations in Peking, Britain agreed to hand over all of the colony to China, including Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula, which were ceded to Britain under the Opium War treaties of 1842 and 1860.In exchange.Britain obtained assurances that Hong Kong would remain largely self-governing and retain its traditional freedoms and socioeconomic system for 50 years after 1997.OFFERED TO TAIWAN Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping has of nearby buildings and several thousand people stood below.In Fredericton earlier, about 30,000 people gathered under the elm and maple trees of Wilmot Park as the couple watched performances ranging from choir music to breakdancing at a bicentennial picnic.Thousands of excited children were bused in from around the province and their enthusiasm spread through the crowd.REACHES PEAK Alfred Landry, chairman of the New Brunswick Bicentennial Commission, beamed in the perfect weather as he described the Queen’s visit as the peak of year long celebrations of the province’s 200th anniversary.“People have been waiting for this for a long time,” he said.“This is the highlight, the crowning of the celebra- said that no country in history has so generously adopted a “one country, two systems” policy within its borders, a plan he also has offered his Nationalist Chinese rivals on Taiwan.In Taiwan, the Foreign Ministry saio the Nationalist government will refuse to recognize the draft agreement.The Nationalists, who retreated to Taiwan from the Chinese mainland in 1949 after their defeat by the Communists, maintain that they are China’s legitimate government and that Hong Kong’s future should have been negotiated between them and Britain.Under a 12-lamp chandelier at the Great Hall of the People, Chinese Vice-Foreign Minister Zhou Nan and British Ambassador Sir Richard Evans initialed a “joint declaration” on the change of sovereignty, three annexes and a memorandum.The texts of the documents were to be released tonight, simultaneously in Hong Kong, Peking and London.The official Chinese news agency Xinhua said the three annexes deal with China’s basic policies on Hong Kong, the establishment of a Sino-British liaison group to monitor implementation of the pact, and a commission to deal with land leases.REQUIRES APPROVAL The agreement requires the approval of the British Parliament and China's National People’s Congress and will be officially signed before the end tions, and we’re very happy.” The day was chock full of history.The Queen gave assent to a new coat of arms for New Brunswick, one that embellishes the ancient galley and gold lion on the shield with symbols of English and French heritage and of the riches from the province’s forests and rivers.She and Philip also signed the beautifully inscribed copy of the Holy Bible that Edward VII left as a memento of his visit in 1860, and worshipped in Christ Church Cathedral, the first reigning monarch to do so.The Anglican church is billed as the first cathedral foundation built on British soil since the Norman conquest in 1066.Although many English cathedrals have been erected since then, they were built on sites of earlier churchs.of the year, both sides said.Zhou said the agreement “satisfactorily solved the question of sovereignty over Hong Kong according to the concept of one country, two systems, and provides an effective guarantee for Hong Kong’s stability and prosperity in the future.” He told 50 negotiators and diplomats from both countries, 200 journalists and a live television audience in Hong Kong: "This is a major event worth celebrating.” Evans was more subdued.“This is a solemn and important event,” he said.“The joint declaration is the practical embodiment of the imaginative concept of one country, two systems.It also demonstrates that peaceful negotiation is the best way to resolve problems left over from history,” Evans said.Since September 1982, when Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher visited Peking and defended the validity of the Hong Kong treaties, the colony watched anxiously as Britain and China negotiated its future.Peking insisted that Hong Kong could have no direct representatives at the talks.Hong Kong television stations broadcast the signing ceremony live from the Chinese capital and many offices and factories suspended work briefly to allow their employees to watch the historic telecast.Clark promises foreign policy

that forced the evacuation of 25 families near this southern Alberta community could be capped by early today, a spokesman for the Energy Resources Conservation Board said Tuesday, Dennis McCullough, speaking from the area of the well—owned jointly by Drummond Oil and Gas Ltd.and Consolidated Natural Gas Ltd., both of Calgary — said the capping operation by Safety Boss Ltd.of Calgary should be "fairly straightforward" if there are no last-minute problems.He said all but four of 25 farm fami-lies evacuated from a seven-kilometre area around the well after the rupture Monday night have been allowed to return to their homes.The remaining four families, living in a revised two-kilometre zone, were allowed to enter the area to do chores and feed their livestock.The families were escorted in and out of the area by air monitoring crews checking for concentrations of poisonous hydrogen sulphide.The six-man Safety Boss team plans to use a crane to lower a blowout preventer, a large piece of equipment with several control valves, over the top of the shattered wellhead, said McCullough STOPS FLOW The blowout preventer will be bolted to the wellhead and control valves will then be shut to stop the flow from the leaking well about 13 kilometres east of Claresholm, which is about 60 kilometres northwest of Lethbridge.The operation is dangerous because a spark could ignite the flammable gas spewing from the well and engulf the workers in flames.McCullough said the rupture was apparently caused by an equipment failure and there is no indication the well was vandalized.McCullough said the air in the area is being monitored by five mobile units, including three from the Alberta Environment Department, one from the board and one from Safety Boss.Jack Bales, another Energy Resources Conservation Board official, said the well was spewing gas at a rate of six to eight million cubic feet a day.The well was producing three million cubic feet of gas daily when it blew out of control.Bales said the level of deadly hydrogen sulphide in the gas was relatively low, ranging from one to 1.5 per cent By comparison, a blowout two years ago at Lodgepole, Alta., had concentrations of up to 30 per cent.The Claresholm well wasn't equipped with safety shut-off valves, designed to close automatically in case of well failure.Bill Remmer, a conservation board official in Calgary, said regulations require safety valves only on wells containing five per cent or more of hydrogen sulphide.Residents is some areas of southwest Alberta have long complained about the alleged effects of living near sour-gas plants, although Claresholm dwellers have not been among those affected.Monday's rupture occurred almost two years after the Oct.17,1982, sour gas well blowout near Lodgepole, 130 kilometres southwest of Edmonton.Two men from a Texas wild well control firm died during an attempt to cap that well, which alternately burned out of control and spewed sour gas for 68 days.Smallwood stable and out Noyyc-jn-hnpf of danger, doctors report ST.JOHN’S, Nfld.(CP) — Former Newfoundland Premier Joseph Smallwood was in stable condition in a St.John's hospital Tuesday after suffering a stroke that partially paralyzed his right side and left him unable to speak.Neurologists at the Health Science Centre said the 83-year-old politician's life was not in immediate danger, but warned during a news conference that his advanced age makes it impossible to predict how fully he might recover.Dr.Mark Sadler said when he admitted Smallwood to the hospital Monday afternoon the former premier was complaining of weakness in his right arm and the right side of his face Sadler described the stroke as serious, but said Smallwood was resting comfortably in the hospital’s neurology section.“There has been no change in Mr.Smallwood’s clinical status since he was admitted," Sadler said."He could get better, he could get worse, he could stay the same - any of the above." Dr.William Pryse-Phillips, a stroke specialist, said most stroke victims show signs of recovery within three months and it often takes a year or more to fully recover.However, it was too early to say whether Smallwood will regain all the motor functions on his right side or his ability to speak.He was described as being fully alert, and is communicating with hospital staff by hand signals.KEEPS BUSY Smallwood, who ran the campaign that united Newfoundland with Canada in 1949 and then went on to hold power in the province for nearly 23 years, is considered to be generally in good health for a man his age, Sadler said.His granddaughter, Dale Fitzpatrick, said Smallwood had a normal morning of business Monday working on the third volume of his Encyclopedia of Newfoundland, the project that has occupied most of his time for the last few years.She said after lunch he began complaining of weakness and was having trouble speaking, so he was taken to the hospital emergency centre.Fitzpatrick said calls and messages had been flowing in from the former premier’s friends and political associates.One of the get-well messages came from Premier Brian Peckford who has often criticized his forerunner’s policies and tactics.Despite his retirement from politics and his age, he will be 84 on Dec.24, Smallwood has been highly active.Along with the work on his encyclopedia, he has kept a busy schedule of speaking engagements and public appearances, a voluminous correspondence and has done the preliminary work on several other books about Newfoundland, its history and its people.Marshall settles claim with N.S.government HALIFAX (CP) — More than two years after he stepped out of prison and into the public eye, Donald Marshall has accepted compensation for the 11 years he spent locked up because of a wrongful murder conviction.His lawyer, Felix Cacchione, said Tuesday that Marshall accepted an undisclosed offer from the Nova Scotia government because he wanted to get on with his life after the pressure of the last two years."It could have dragged on for months and months,” Cacchione said.“He wants to get on with his life.not to look at the past.but look to a good future.He is happy.” Cacchione would not confirm reports that Marshall will get $270,000 and said he would release details of the settlement today.Attorney General Ron Giffin also plans a statement.Marshall, now 31 and living in Halifax, was not available for comment.Weather Cloudy today with showers and gusts of winds up to 50 kilometers and hour.The temperature will go down to 10 this afternoon and 0 tonight with a risk of ground frost.Outlook for Thursday — sunny with cloudy periods, high 10.tl___2£1 ifecora 569-9511 569-6345 569-9525 569-9931 569-9931 569-4856 $5500 $3250 $22 50 $1300 George MacLaren, Publisher Charles Bury, Editor Lloyd G.Scheib, Advertising Manager Mark Guillette, Press Superintendent Richard Lessard, Production Manager Debra Waite, Superintendent.Composing Room CIRCULATION DEPT —569-9528 Subscriptions by Carrier: 1 year -

Union gets Simpson’s employees TORONTO (CP) — Union organizers are claiming a major breakthrough at Simpsons Ltd.’s flagship department store in downtown Toronto.The Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union applied Tuesday to represent 800 full-time sales, display and shipping employees at the huge landmark store that occupies an entire city block in the downtown shopping area.The union also asked the Ontario Labor Relations Board to allow it to represent 60 full-time Simpsons workers at a mall in suburban Scarborough.Siamese twins’ mother misled TORONTO (CP)—The mother of Siamese twins who were separated at the Hospital for Sick Children in July didn’t know until they were six months old that they were joined below the waist, her husband said Tuesday.Nyi Htut, 34, father of the twins, told a news conference that he withheld the news from his wife, Myint, 38, on the advice of doctors who wanted to shield her from shock or other post-natal trauma.“Normally, I hate to lie to my wife, but that time I had to lie,” Htut said.“Every day she would ask about the babies and sometimes I would quarrel with her and she was angry with me.” McTeer to do CBC radio show TORONTO (CP) — It appears Maureen McTeer will be a commentator of “informed gossip” on the Ottawa scene for CBC Radio’s Morningside this fall, says a network spokesman.But McTeer — wife of former Conservative prime minister Joe Clark — won’t be doing the Ottawa feature alone, as staff at Morningside originally envisioned.Instead, she’ll share the chore of reporting on “the Ottawa buzz” with former Liberal cabinet minister Jean-Luc Pepin and an as-yet unnamed person who has had links with the New Democrats, says Andrew Simon, head of radio current affairs.WASHINGTON (AP) — Reagan administration proposals to protect American personnel abroad are moving quickly through Congress, with a high-ranking administration official conceding security arrangements at the bombed U.S.Embassy annex in Lebanon are open to criticism.Ronald Spiers, undersecretary of state for management, told a reporter Tuesday embassy officials probably should have used cement trucks or other temporary barriers to block the road in the front of the annex, which was hit by a fatal car bomb blast last week.Bomb explodes in Consulate office NEW YORK (AP) — A bomb exploded in the building housing the South African Consulate early today, knocking out walls and power but causing no injuries, police said.The explosion in the 33-storey building was on the 12th floor, where the South African Consulate has offices.The Associated Press received a tr.ped message at 12:35 a.m.in which an accented male voice said : "We bombed the South African Consulate in New York City in solidarity with resistance to South African human rights violations.Down with apartheid.Victory to the freedom fighters.Defeat U.S.imperialism.Guerrilla resistance.” Escaped prisoners captured LANSING, Kan.(AP) —The last two of five prisoners who escaped Monday from the Kansas State Penitentiary here were captured early today as they walked along a highway about eight kilometres south of the prison, authorities said.Prison spokesman Troy Baker said convicted murderers James Allen Purdy, 23, and Thanh Van Pham, 20, from Wichita.Kan., were stopped by a deputy sheriff.They did not resist.Manson goes up in flames VACAVILLE, Calif.(AP) — Charles Manson, serving a life term for the 1969 cult slayings of nine people, was badly burned by another convicted killer who doused him with paint thinner and set him ablaze.Authorities said Jan Holmstrom attacked Man-son on Tuesday in the hobby shop of the California Medical Facility at Vacaville, about 80 kilometres northeast of San Francisco, where the state keeps psychiatric prisoners.Corrections Department spokesman Bob Gore identified the attacker as Jan Holmstrom, 36, serving life for second-degree murder.Gore said Holmstrom, “a psychiatric case in remission,” told officers Manson had threatened him for his former Hare Krishna beliefs.‘Mothers for rent’ VATICAN CITY (AP) — The Vatican newspaper criticized surrogate motherhood Tuesday as a system of “mothers for rent,’ and said it produces babies who are not "the fruit of biological and spiritual parenthood.” The commentary in L’Osservatore Romano was signed by Rev.Gino Concetti, a theologian who regularly contributes to the newspaper.‘ ‘Transmission of life to a new human being must take place in the context of a marriage validly celebrated between legitimate spouses,” he said.U.S.policy endangers embassy BEIRUT (AP) — The United States should change its Middle East policies or “nothing will protect its embassy” from more bombing attacks, Druse militia chief Walid Jumblatt said in a newspaper interview published today.Jumblatt also was quoted by the Beirut newspaper Al-Anwar as saying France might become a target, too, if its government goes ahead with planned arms shipments for the Lebanese army.“In principle, we have denounced the bombing,” Jumblatt was quoted as saying in reference to last Thursday’s suicide car-bombing of the U.S.Embassy annex.“But the United States naturally has to realize that nothing will protect its embassy if it persists with its current policy no matter what precautions it will take.” Jordan and Egypt end alienation AMMAN (AP) — Jordan has ended five years of alienation from Egypt by announcing it will resume diplomatic relations that were broken when Egypt signed a peace treaty with Israel.Jordan was one of 17 Arab countries that severed relations after the late president Anwar Sadat and former Israeli prime minister Menachem Begin signed the treaty on March 26,1979.None of the other Arab countries have restored formal ties with Egypt, and one of them — Syria — denounced Jordan’s action on Tuesday as dangerous.German church opposes missiles GREIFSWALD, East Germany (AP)—East German Protestant churchmen have criticized the deployment of Soviet missiles in Eastern Europe and are urging Communist authorities to find other ways to defend the Soviet bloc.In a statement Tuesday at the end of the five-day annual East German Protestant synod, the churchmen said they could “simply not settle for” the Warsaw Pact’s deployment of more missiles in response to NATO’s stationing of U.S.-built medium-range missiles in Western Europe.CIA man wins defamation case U.S.breaks New Zealand alliance CONCORD, N.H.(AP) — Max Hugel, a deputy director of the CIA who resigned amid allegations he had taken part in illegal stock dealings, was awarded $930,000 Tuesday in a defamation case.Hugel, 59, quit the CIA in July 1981 after Thomas and Samuel McNeil alleged Hugel leaked stock tips about a company he founded.The McNeils, former Wall Street stockbrokers, disappeared in 1981 after their accusations became public, and U.S.District Judge Martin Loughlin ruled in Hugel’s favor in February 1983 when the brothers failed to appear in court.Rescue chopper kills 2 in crash Arafat named in smuggling KERNERSVILLE, N.C.(AP) — A television helicopter crashed into a water tower as it was trying to retrieve the body of a construction worker who had been trapped inside the tank, killing the two people aboard, authorities said As the chopper approached the tower its blades tore into a projecting piece of steel, and the air craft crashed onto a nearby building, killing the pilot and a rescue worker, said Mike Conly, station manager for WFMY-TV.The station’s helicopter has been used before in rescues.VENICE (AP) — PLO leader Yasser Arafat has again been named in an arrest warrant on charges of smuggling weapons for Red Brigades terrorists in the late 1970s, Italian news reports said Tuesday.The reports said the warrant was issued early this month by Judge Carlo Mastelloni, who has been investigating the PLO’s alleged funnelling of weapons to the Red Brigades, a leftist terrorist gang Italian authorities believe has been virtually defeated.WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The United States has broken the foundations of its military alliance with New Zealand and Australia by pushing Japan to rearm, a top New Zealand official says.Sir Wallace Rowling, a former prime minister who will be New Zealand’s new ambassador to Washington, said the ANZUS alliance was formed after the Second World War as a defence against possible Japanese rearmament.But the United States has been urging Japan to expand its military forces, he said.Soviet, Israeli ministers to meet UNITED NATIONS (Reuter) — Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko had a 90-minute meeting Tuesday with Israeli Foreign Minister Yitzhak Shamir, a spokeswoman for Israel’s UN mission said.Moscow broke diplomatic relations with Israel in 1967 and their ministers have met only rarely, during sessions of the UN General Assembly.Tuesday’s meeting, at the Soviet UN Mission, was the first such encounter since Shamir met Gromyko in 1981.UN Security Council ineffective — Clark Continued from page l history, Clark said.ISSUES WARNING Clark warned against blaming the world body “for our own sins and omissions.“If we collectively are unable to revitalize the UN system, we shall have to resign ourselves to watching it wither away.That must not happen.” Clark said that among the many wrongs he finds with the United Nations is the ineffectiveness of its Security Council.Deteriorating relationships among the five permament Council members — the Soviet Union, China, France, Britain and the United States — must not be allowed to immobilize the council, Clark said Next year is the 40th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations, a year that could be a turning point in the life of the 159-country organization, Clark said.• He urged that a broad coalition of UN supporters join forces to renew the effectiveness of global institu- tions.The Canadian government, Clark said, will do its utmost working with other member states and UN Secretary General Javier Perez de Cuellar to make these institutions flourish The speech was a product of many diplomatic hands, with Clark working on the final draft until a few hours before delivery.It was clear and concise on key issues, such as nuclear disarmament and the need for a comprehensive test ban treaty affecting all nuclear testings.The nuclear arms race is frightening enough, Clark added, but far more threatening than the weaponry are the patterns into which the world has settled.CITES STALEMATE “Nuclear arms control negotiations between the superpowers are at a standstill This stalemate allows other nuclear states to claim impotence in the arms race and could encourage states without nuclear weapons to argue that they have a right to acquire them.“If these patterns continue, and the path toward effective nuclear arms control remains blocked, the world will become infinitely more dangerous.” He said he hoped the Soviet Union will respond positively to U.S.President Reagan’s offer to engage in political discussions “on a regular and frequent basis.” Clark also met with Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, who is to meet with Reagan at the White House on Friday.A Canadian spokesman said Gromyko was friendly and relaxed during his 50-minute talk with Clark in the Soviet UN mission at noon Tuesday.Spokesman Shawn Brady reported that Gromyko said relations between Canada and the Soviet Union were pretty good under former prime minister Pierre Trudeau and he hoped the new Tory administration would strengthen them further.The Soviet foreign minister made it clear he wants more regular contacts with Canada at the foreign ministry level, and more substantive ones.Clark raised the issue of compensa- tion for the families of the 10 Canadians who died on Sept.1, 1983, when the Soviets shot down a South Korean commercial jetliner, killing all 269 people aboard.Clark said Gromyko did not give him an immediate answer because they were pressed for time when the matter was raised.In his UN speech, Clark also said: • Canada will seek progress toward a comprehensive test ban treaty and will encourage superpower and multilateral discussions on all outer space weapons.• Canada will commission further studies on how a space weapons ban might be verified.• “We shall continue to press for a verifiable convention prohibiting the development, production, stockpiling and use of chemical weapons." • Canada will continue to finance the world disarmament campaign and expects the newly created Canadian Institute for International Peace and Security to contribute its share of studies and advice to specific arms control proposals.f aiSPBmaRBMMB The RECORD—Wednesday, September 26, 1984-3 The Townships flecrinl Wine show not for the meek or mild taster By Timothy Belford MONTREAL—Wine lovers, pack up your taste vins! The third International Wine and Spirits Show opened yesterday in the exhibition hall of the Place Bonaventure and it is no place for the faint hearted.Over 2,100 products from 25 different nations are on display.White wines, red wines, rosés.Liqueurs, brandies and Champagne.This show has it all.Continuing until September 30, the exhibition is designed to give amateurs and professionals alike a firsthand look at — or taste of — the many products of wine and spirit exporters from around the world.To this end, more than half of what is on display is not presently available at provincial Société des Alcools (SAQ) outlets.Thus exhibitors are doubly keen on creating a demand for their products.Since, once the demand is created, so the reasoning goes, a listing with the SAQ is sure to follow.Along with the large number of wine exhibitors is an almost equally large number of booths dedicated to food.As befits a wine show, those attending will find displays of cheese, crackers, pasta products, mustard and a variety of gourmet delicacies including Swiss chocolate and crêpes flambéed in Drambuie.There is also a restaurant on hand offering a selection of delightful meals all designed to accompany the many wines on display.Operating from noon until 10 p.m.all week, the show is reasonably priced with tickets starting at $5 for adults.Tickets for seniors and stu- 'I RECORD/PERRY

while groups are offered further discounts depending on their size.Once inside the exhibition hall, other tickets are available at less than a dollar each.These can be exchanged for samples of the various products with the number of tickets required dependent upon the quality of the wine or spirit tasted.As an added attraction, many of the producers themselves are on hand to discuss their particular wine or liqueur and to answer any questions you might have.There are also book stalls and information booths offering a wide range of material concerning both wne and spirits.- If you do intend on visiting this year’s International Wine and Spirit Show, be prepared to spend the better part of three or four hours however, since it will take at least that long to do even the most cursory tour of the exhibition.And bear in mind, the crowd tends to grow as the weekend approaches.• Imr- i % RECORD PERRY BEATON Over 25 nations are represented at the third International Wine and

deal despite 38-day dispute By Bobby Fisher NORTH HATLEY — Fourteen management employees from a Romanian company overseeing construction of that country’s first nuclear power generating plant toured the near-empty Ingersoll Rand building in Sherbrooke Tuesday, then adjourned to North Hatley’s fashionable Hovey Manor for a mid-afternoon luncheon.The group visited Sherbrooke as part of a Canadian tour to view construction facilities of components for Romania’s first-ever nuclear power plant, presently under construction in Cernovoda.Sherbrooke’s Ingersoll Rand is currently locked in a 38-day-old contract dispute with its 300-member sector of the United Steelworkers of America over a proposed wage freeze and increased work week.The union's contract expired August 19 and one day later workers walked off the job.GOING AHEAD The dispute hasn’t stopped management from seeking increased business and recently it received a $10 million order from Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd.(ACL) to manufacture pumps to be used in the Romanian plant’s cooling system.The order is one of several subcontracts awarded for the project.The strike won’t impede the over-100-year-old Sherbrooke company from fulfilling its obligations to ACL, according to Leonard Baxter, manager of Quality Assurance at the factory.“We’re going to meet our delivery date, I can tell you that,” he said.“We’ll subcontract if we have to — there are lots of Canadian companies who will do this type of work.” The first stage of delivery is scheduled for December, 1984 with the second and third shipments ready “by the end of 1985.” The $10 million deal, according to Jacques Lacroix, Contract Administrator at Ingersoll Rand, “is considered a large contract as far as we’re concerned in Sherbrooke.” IMPORTANT STEP Sergiu Molin, Director of Nudear-montaj, the Romanian firm overseeing the plant's construction, said he was “very pleased to be able to come and tour the factories where the products we require will be manufactured.” “It is a very important step for our country,” Molin told his luncheon audience of Neclearmontaj engineers and Ingersoll Rand administrative staff, “and we are very pleased to able to work with your company.” Although a formal contract has yet to be signed between ACL and Ingersoll Rand, Lacroix said he has received a memo from the former requesting the pumps be built.“I regard it as more than a letter of intent,” Lacroix said.The contract dispute centres pri marily around the company’s propo sal to drop the present half-hour paid lunch break employees receive, increasing the work week from 3TV?to 40 hours.Also on the two sides’ list of disagreements is the company’s proposed wage freeze for the first year of a three-year contract.The following two years, management proposed to the union in August, would see increases of three and 3.8 per cent respectively.FOR frALK FOR SALE FOK SALK Reconditioned ELECTRIC TYPEWRITERS like new AND MANUAL TYPEWRITERS

secretary/treasurer, respectively, of the English sector of the Sherbrooke UPA federation.The McCourts ran the sector for four years, but declined nominations for re-election at the annual meeting of the 800-member organization at a Rock Forest hotel.They said it was time for a change, and that they were too busy working on their own projects.Fraser Adams, a dairy farmer from Georgeville, was acclaimed as the new president by the ten directors attending the meeting.Douglas MacKinnon of Coaticook was reelected vice-president, als by acclamation.There were fewer than 20 people at any given time at the daylong meeting.“I think it’s time for a change,” said Randy McCourt, who will be officially replaced by Adams after the regional federation’s annual meeting October 4.“We have got to have new blood.” The English sector, made up of for mini-sectors, has been plagued by very low participation during the last few years.McCourt partly blamed the way the UPA handled the building of its new headquarters in Longueuil two years ago, when the union went ahead with construction without consulting its members, and then asked them to pay for it."There was a terrible drop in participation after that.” said the retiring president.“We used to have 60 people at our annual meetings.I hope the new blood recuperates interest.” McCourt also said he has a number of personal projects in the works, and doesn’t have time to run the sector anymore.“It involves a lot of time,” he pointed out.“It’s often thankless work.There are an awful lot of people calling up giving you hell.” Marlene McCourt surprised the directors — the only members of the sector who can vote in an election — when she said she wouldn’t be returning as secretary.Everyone was aware of her husband’s plans, but Marlene “dropped a bomb” on the meeting, according to MacKinnon.Adams and Mackinnon agreed to put off naming a new secretary until a replacement close to the new president could be found.It is not an elected position, and it doesn’t have to be filled by a card-carrying UPA member.Adams, orignally from Montreal, moved onto his Georgeville farm three years ago.His priority as sector president is to improve communications between the UPA and its English-speaking members.“My main goal is to get more information to English producers,” he said “Information is power.” Adams said the lack of interest in the sector was partly due to the Maison UPA affair, but also pointed to union budget cuts which resulted in fewer meetings and the disappea-rence of English-language union publications.He would like to expand and improve Le Producteur, a one-page newsletter full of local informa- tion and editorials by the English sector president.He also has to overcome the problem of being in charge of four minisectors which are spread out across the Eastern Townships — Ayer’s Cliff, Richmond, Knolwton and Bulwer.Increasing participation means giving members a reason to travel to a meeting.“We need to identify what people want to know about,” said Adams.“We have to identify specific needs of English-speaking farmers in the Eastern Townships.” The president-elect pointed to a meeting on quota transfer in April which was attended by over 60 farmers.“We have to make the UPA feel more local,” he said.MacKinnon predicted an upswing in participation, “especially if there are more regular meetings, maybe two or three a month.It depends on what’s in the mix.” Both men were impressed that Sherbrooke Federation President Jacques Proulx was at Tuesday’s meeting, and said it would help if the head office paid more attention to En-glish-spaking farmers.They pointed out, however, that it is election time for Proulx, who urged everyone to attend the Federation’s annual meeting next week.In other business at the English sector meeting, delegates were chosen for the regional meeting, and several resolutions were passed.Among them were calls for 90-per-cent government financing of the construction of manure storage tanks, and the continuation of dairy council policy under the new federal government.A profit of $2,925 was declared for the end of the year.FIRST AID TIP from St

Tel.562 1531 ) 4—The RECORD—Wednesday, September 26.19M fteconl The Voice of the Eastern Townships since 1897 Editorial Big toes Step One : Open mouth, insert other person’s foot.Prime Minister Mulroney, during his visit to Washington, said he intends to chart a course for Canada independent of the United States on foreign policy, while at the same time working to intensify our continental working relationship.External Affairs minister Joe Clark, in a speech to the United Nations, said he favors a all-out Canadian foreign policy review.Of course, he was quick to point out, with Mr.Mulroney’s say-so.The only independent courses being charted here are the opposite one the two seem to be on.There are several problems with Mr.Mulroney’s statements.The most obvious one is its contradictory nature.On the one hand, he believes Canada should be stuck in somewhere between the superpowers but should still be consulted in matters of arms control and other global matters.On the other hand, he wants to intensify our working relationship with the United States.While all of that may sound quite straightforward to him, it might be useful to remember what Pierre Trudeau once said about sleeping next door to an elephant.Canada should have its own say — and an influencial one — in matters of global concern.Agreed.We are indeed our own nation, despite our sometimes cozy ‘yes, sir’ relationship with our southern friends.However, if Canada is to pursue its own course in foreign policy independent of the United States, it’s going to be rather difficult to avoid stepping on a few toes.And elephants have big toes.And what about the health of our working relationship?Like a business partnership, where both partners want to be official spokesman of the company, statements have to be phrased a tad carefully to avoid contradictions.Two minds must be one before either mouth opens.Mr.Clark’s concept of a no-holds-barred Canadian foreign policy review is a nice idea except for the fact it might be opening Pandora’s box.If Canadians as a whole had a say in such a review, their views would undoubtedly run contrary to some of the government’s views on what really constitutes our ‘NATO commitment’ — that great political cop-out — and our role as the kid on the other end of the North American umbilical cord.Mr.Mulroney and Mr.Clark are unquestionably doing what they feel is best as Canadian spokesmen.Indeed, our relationship with the United States is at times a tricky one to manage.Mr.Trudeau’s elephant analogy is a good one.Do we grab a tail and follow, leave ours to be held and lead, or do we lumber side by side?Unfortunately, with elephants, the path is usually only wide enough to walk single file.ROBERT PALMER Bruce Levett ‘Former indeed!’ Can it be that nobody over the age of 30 reads newspapers anymore?Or is it merely that nobody over the age of 30 edits newspapers these days?His snort of derision sent sparks ascending from the overheated bowl of the old meerschaum.“Former indeed! ” he snarled, deftly smothering the flame just beginning to flicker in the Harris tweed.“Former what, my old?” she asked.“Former THIS, blast it!” Hand shaking with a palsy of rage preferred the entertainment section.“Former sex symbols (Brigitte) Bardot and (Sophia) Loren turning 50,” the headline read.“The contention, then, is.” “.That nobody, once a proper sex symbol, can ever become former.' And especially neither of the two above-mentioned.” He was warming to his subject.“Sex-sy mbollism is as much in the mind as it is in the, uh, elsewhere,” he pontificated.He was recalling that time just outside Geneva when they were dining at a small, vine-covered restaurant.I-oren stalked in leading an entourage which included several stunning women.She made them all look like boys.“If we were to run into her again today somewhere, would you mistake her for a waitress or a pastry cook?” he demanded.“Of course not!” A soothing cup of cocoa appeared at the elbow.He touched her hand.“When does one cease to be a sex symbol^” he ruminated.“At what stage does the mystical ‘former’ come aboard?For instance, am I now a ‘former’ to you?” At this point, a soothing cup of cocoa appeared at HER elbow.She murmured something about fifth amendments.He pretended not to hear.“I'd wager both Bardot and Loren could still raise the eyebrows of men naif their age and younger,” he said “And older?” “Naturally.” He smiled, remembering Alice.In her 90s, Alice do minated the space around her with an animal magne tism.“Remember Alice?” “Indeed — she was the one famous for the line if you can’t think of anything nice to say about someone, then come sit by me.”’ A great many men were wont to go sit by Alice.“I guess it’s something like winning an Olympic gold medal,” he mused.“As age ravages, one can no longer make the running but that doesn’t mean you become a ¦former’ and have to give back the honor.” A brow furrowed.“By the way — you didn’t answer the question about whether I have become a ‘former’ in your eyes.’ She grinned.“It’s a little late to ask for your medal back.” she said.Blast — wonder what she meant by that9 Real opposition willl come from Grits — Gray By Eric Beauchesne OTTAWA (CP) — Herb Gray, the new Liberal Opposition House leader, is adamant that Liberals, not New Democrats, will provide the real opposition to what he suspects is a secret Conservative right-wing agenda.Liberal MPs will form the opposition not just in name but in fact and it’s “wishful thinking ” on the part of New Democrats to expect otherwise, says the 53-year-old veteran MP.Liberals outnumber New Democrats 40-30 in the House, have MPs from eight provinces compared to the New Democrats’ four and have an energetic mixture of talent and experience eager to battle the Tories, he says.The economy will continue to be the major issue, but social policies, especially medicare, will also be important.“I think we have to be very steadfast in making sure that Mulroney doesn’t give in to the provinces and their demands to dismantle medicare.” Gray says the result of Conservative plans to reduce government spending will be the “cutting of worthwhile programs to aid individual Canadians and their families.” “This is basically a small T liberal country.Mulroney portrayed himself in style and language as essentially a small T liberal person.“I fear, looking at the cabinet and what has happened since Mulroney has taken over, that we ll see the emergence of a hidden right-wing agenda.“People in the key positions are right of centre," he says.“So-called Red Tories are off on the periphery.” Liberals also plan to hold the Conservatives to the promises they made during the election campaign.“In fact, there are already signs that they don’t intend to keep their promises,’’ Gray says, citing Finance Minister Michael Wilson’s statement last week that the government’s finanical situation is worse than expected and it isn’t sure if it can still meet this year’s promises.LOOKS FOR EXCUSES “He’s just looking for excuses to not carry out what the Canadian people thought were commitments,” Gray says.Gray doesn’t buy the argument that Liberals will be weakened in their role as opposition because the problems currently facing the country — high unemploy ment, a massive deficit and slow economic growth — are a Liberal government hangover.He will not reveal details of Opposition strategy but he says with a Conservative cabinet matching the size of the Liberal caucus, every Liberal MP will be a critic.According to one Liberal strategist.Opposition Leader John Turner will likely announce his shadow cabinet in mid October, about three weeks before the Nov.5 opening of Parliament.Also the Liberals hope to make use of Liberal senators, who outnumber their Tory colleagues 73-23, Gray says.Not only will the party be drawing on their expe rience but they will likely play an expanded role in the community, attending meetings and giving speeches, he says.Being a government critic, whether in opposition or on the back-benches, is not a new role for the Windsor West MP, who for close to a quarter century since the Diefenbaker era has represented the city he was born in.“Not only was I a leading critic in the Clark period but when I first came to Parliament, and when Turner first came to Parliament, we came as part of an opposition group,” he said.PLAYS CRITIC Gray — to the embarrassment of the Trudeau government — also played government critic as a back-bencher in the 1970s after being dumped from cabinet because he was seen as “one of the nameless, faceless mass" of ministers the party could do without.It was a mistake on the part of Trudeau that is illustrated by a framed editorial cartoon — one of about 25 hanging on the pale walls of the parliamentary office Gray has occupied since 1962 — depicting Gray as a back-seat driver giving unwanted advice to the driver, an annoyed Pierre Trudeau.“I intend to work as the official Opposition and so do all of us to ensure we are the opposition in fact.” -He KEIN?of P0WEI?.New Brunswick receives coat-of-arms and Queen’s blessing FREDERICTON (CP) -The ancient galley and golden lion, the main elements of New Brunswick’s coat of arms for more than 100 years, got some company Tuesday when the Queen gave assent to new armorial bearings for the province.Now.the shield assigned by Queen Victoria on M ay 26, 1868, is supplemented with symbols of the province’s rich natural resources, its two officially recognized cultures and the original Ma-liseet inhabitants.The shield and a helmet perched above it are topped by an Atlantic salmon, a famed prize of New Brunswick rivers, and flanked by two white-tailed deer with antlers and small shields, one bearing the Union Jack and the other three gold fleur de-lys.Each deer wears a collar of Maliseet wampum It all sits on a grassy mount crowded with purple violets and fiddleheads — the wild fern New Brunswickers are known for picking, marketing and eating in a big way.Premier Richard Hatfield says the proclamation of the arms was the Queen’s most significant bicentennial event in New Brunswick, which is celebrating 200|

On top of what has become known as the debt crisis, there will be an international trade crisis unless the industrialized countries keep their markets open, he has warned At first glance it appears the United States is not going to practise in the steel case what Brock has preached Two of the countries singled out for negotiated restraints in steel imports are among the world’s mostindebted countries.Brazil is at the top and South Korea fourth, after Mexico and Argentina, on the International Monetary Fund’s list of most indebted countries.It seemed the logic worked in the case of copper just a week before the steel decision.The largest source of imported cop per in the United States is Chile, the ninth most indebted country in the world and one that teeters toward an emergency financial situation like Argentina this year, Brazil last year and Mexico the year be fore.Ultimately.Brock appears to hope the cash-starved countries can keep selling their steel — but not to the United States.The U S.will ask Japan to import more steel from South Korea, a neighbor.Less than five per cent of the steel consumed in Japan is imported.Brock points out, while steel imports in the United States have claimed more than a quarter of the market.EYE ON CANADA?While Canada won t be asked to cut steel exports to the United States, it could conceivably be prodded to take a bigger share of steel imports from such countries as Brazil.(Canadian banksareowed more than $30 billion by the so called problem debtors, Brazil among them.) II appears the United States doesn't want to carry the lion's share of the import “burden” anymore.More than half of total exports of manufactured goods from developing countries to the major industrialized countries — the U.S., the European Community, Canada and Japan— go to the United States.“We’re big and we’re strong and we’re very blessed and we're very productive but we cannot carry the whole world on our shoulders all the time," Brock told reporters in explaining the U.S.motive for negotiated restraints On the other side of the trade coin, the United States has the lion’s share of the export market to developing countries.But under Brock's formula it is the export of goods from developing countries, not their imports of foreign goods, that is the key to solving the debt problem “The debt burden can be borne by bon wing less and cutting back on imports, by exporting more," he said in a recc essay in the scholarly Foreign Affai quarterly.“Ultimately, there are limits to auste ty; export expansion offers the only su way out of the debt situation in the to term.” The RECORD—Wednesday.September 26, 1984-5 Education 1____tel lEocara Mathophobia: It’s a question of confidence WINDSOR, Ont.(CP) - Those who get sweaty palms, an upset stomach or a dry mouth at the thought of adding two plus two could be suffering from a condition known as math anxiety, number wariness or mathophobia.It can cause nervousness, confusion, fear and mental disorganization — all making mathematics an impossible challenge.It may result in a lifetime of avoiding anything mathematical, from comparison shopping to certain careers.“It’s usually quite deep-seated from elementary school,” says Rosemary McDougall, a mathematician with 11 years of teaching experience.“Kids might have laughed at you when you made a mistake.It compounds itself and you avoid math at all costs.” McDougall is one of a few people doing something about mathophobia.She is the instructor of Overcoming Math Anxiety, a new 10-week course offered by St.Clair Community College’s community services department.The course covers basic mathema- tics used in everyday life, with the focus on confidence.In a report by the math department of the Toronto Board of Education, researchers found many reasons for the anxiety.Key among them was the quality of classroom learning experiences.The math anxious can and often do well at other subjects, but if embarrassment, anger, fear, ridicule or disappointment have come to be associated with math, anxiety sets in.Math is also a cumulative discipline, where if, for instance, a student forgets the definition of pi, other steps along the way become imposssible, the report says.Arithmetic also imposes what some consider a senseless new language and symbolism, it adds.“Math is cut and dried,” McDougall said.“With English, you can get around it.With math, the answer is four, it’s not 4Vi.’’ There is also a gender bias among the math anxious, with more females suffering anxiety than males because math is perceived by females as a moi» domain.“Traditionally, it has been a male-dominated field,” said McDougal-l.“With young girls, it might not be cool or accepted among your peers.You might be thought of as a tomboy.” The Toronto report says in Grade 11 there was no significant gender difference in math participation but by Grade 12 there were 12 per cent fewer females and by Grade 13 there were nearly 22 per cent fewer.But if the board’s projected career opportunities in the 1980s are correct, math will be required.Among the high-demand careers requiring math are engineering, micro-electronics, telecommunications, geology, metal machinery, business, nursing and health services.HOLDS HOPE Tony Bergering, an educational psychologist at tka University of Western Ontario in London, says there are several ways to treat math anxiety.“First, one has to become aware of what’s going on,” he said.“The awareness and realization that it has something to do with prior learning must be there.“Most people are aware of it, but they contribute a reason to it rather than saying T cannot solve the problem, but if I were more relaxed I could.’” Bergering refers to the anxiety associated with math as a type of arousal, so the end result of therapy is a reduction of the arousal level.This involves learning relaxation techniques.Another technique that helps is called systematic desensitization.The person is exposed to a mildly anxiety-provoking situation and asked to adjust to it, until gradually the situations become less stressful.Math anxiety does not have to occur with good teaching methods, Bergering said, adding that math teaching may be too formal with too much emphasis on symbols.McDougall hopes her course will reduce anxiety through the interaction of peers and the realization they are not alone.There will also be some basic math as it relates to everyday life, covering fractions, decimals and percentages."It’s a question of confidence,” she said.Explanations are required before students can dive into Alexander Galt’s newest editions to its computer family.This particular class is taught by John Greer.Wap».S Galt adds 27 more to high-tech family Twenty-seven new Commodore-64 computers have been installed at Galt.The main purpose for these units is to teach a newly-introduced Computer Literacy course to level one (grace seven) students.Through this course students are being introduced to computer terminology and are acquiring skills, knowledge and values related to today’s computer-oriented society.Each unit consists of a monitor, keyboard and a disc drive.The remaining results of the Regional Students’ Council Elections which took place on Monday, September 17 are as follows: Green and Blue President, Kathy MacKinnon; Yellow and Orange President, Darlene Kerr.The names of the students who were acclaimed to their council positions were in last week’s column.Galt News By Randy Spaulding In the Galt Girls’ Soccer Tournament (which took place on Saturday, September 15) Richmond Regional were the champions in the Senior division.They defeated Massey Vanier 4-0 in the fi- nals.Earlier in the day Galt had defeated West Island College 2-1 and then lost to Stanstead 1-0.I n the Junior division Galt won all three of their matches including a 3-0 victory over Richmond Regional in the finals.Wendy Hornby of Galt was named the most valuable player.In the Bantam division Alexander Galt were again the champions.The gals defeated BCS1-0 in a thrilling final game.Galt’s Stephanie Smith was named the most valuable player.On Monday, September 17 Galt’s Bantam Girls’ and Bantam Boys’ Soccer teams were in Richmond for some competition.Our girls defeated Richmond with a score of 4-1 thanks to Stephanie who scored all of Galt’s goals.The Bantam Boys had a bit of bad luck, however.They were defeated by Richmond by a score of 3-1.% Clubs grappling amongst selves for members Driving to Ottawa for Thanksgiving?Then you could offer a ride to a certain person desiring to go there, through the use of the Ride Board.This is a large map on the wall beside the mailboxes in the Student Union Building invented as a link between students who need transportation and those who have empty car space.Fill out a card saying where you want or plan to go—Toronto, Granby, Thetford, wherever—and hang it up on the board.The Animation Office and the Porter’s Office both have extra cards.Tonight at nine the Bishop’s University Drama Dept, is holding auditions in Centennial Theatre for the play, Listen to the Wind.The work is by established Canadian poet and playwright James Crerar Reaney.At 1:30 on Thursday, in the same building, Bob Berkey from the Off-Broadway production Foolsfire will be giving a workshop in some of his talents.Six hours later he will join forces with Fred Garbo and Michael Moschen in the much-acclaimed show and students and senior citizens can witness the result for $5; others for $10.Also September 27, at 1:15 p.m., a speaker from U.S.C.Canada will present a seminar and a slide show on poverty-stricken nations in Room 240, top floor of the Student Union.U.S.C.Canada is a service group with no religious affiliations, founded in 1945 to “break the pattern of poverty’’.It has programs underway in Lesotho, Indonesia, Nepal, Bangladesh, Botswana, and Swaziland.Various clubs are out grappling amongst themselves to procure members.First off I must mention the Champlain/Bishop’s animal protection group I’m trying to start.It is intended for anyone who cares how animals are treated — who holds that the rights of all living, sentient creatures should be defended.Members will be able to read pamphlets, pass around petitions, and write protest letters at their own convenience.Even those who merely would like to learn more about animal rights issues such as trapping and experiments on animals could benefit.Please contact me at Box 2095.Photography enthusiasts are in luck because there are two outlets for their interest — the Champlain Photo Club and the photography staff of The Champlain Review.If you would like to sign up with the former, see Nancy at the C.S.A.Office (Room 206, Student Union) or leave her your name and box number, especially if you wish to be in charge of the club.If you would enjoy trotting around campus with a cameara poised to snap up great moments in spori and so on, you could be of service to the periodical.The Cham- Champlain news By Jennifer Epps plain Review and should send word to R.Nassar in McGreer 207 or at Box 67, McGreer Hall.Life isn’t just fun and games, eh?Well, if you’re dissatisfied with that state of affairs, there is the Games Club, a group of devotees of Dungeons and Dragons, Top Secret, Traveller, and miscellaneous others.Newcomers will be welcomed by the owner of Box 722.The sound of foreign tongues waggling is the aim of the Languages Club, which met September 24 in Room 240 of the Student Union.The club is designed to give scholars of Spanish, German or Italian practice in communicating in their field of study.Amnesty International has more than 350,000 members, subscribers and supporters in 150 countries and was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1977 and the United Nations Human Rights Prize a year later.Its mandate is to “secure the immediate and unconditional release of all prisoners of conscience, ensure fair and prompt trials for all political prisoners, and abolish torture and executions.” A.I.bases its work on the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights and claims to pay no attention to the prisoner's beliefs or his government’s ideology when considering helping him.The group purports hundreds of thousands of people on this planet are confined because of their race, religion, or political doctrines and since 1980 more than one out of every three countries has tortured or abused prisones.The Champlain/Bishop’s branch had dwindled in the past and a meeting was called on September 20 in the hope of attracting enough new students to carry on.“A lot of people are interested in this kind of work, but when it comes right down to joining.” Sylvia Wilson, one of the group’s sponsors, trailed off sadly before the meeting.Now, after the good turnout last Thursday, things are looking up, although organizer Mary Purkey is wary of uncrossing her fingers.The next meeting is scheduled for October 4, 1:15 p.m., in Room 240 of the Union, and will be a workshop on how to write effective letters to aid prisoners.The group is selling white Amnesty International buttons and black “We Remember the Disappeared” buttons for $1 each, as well as note-cards and multi-lingual Christmas cards at 10 for $4.The items are available from Mary Purkey — Box 323 McGreer Hall or 567-7278.Champlain Freshmen are being reminded in the daily Bulletin about their Freshman Advisors.Those who didn’t receive a note in their mailbox from their Advisor or who never selected one are asked to inform Fabiann in McGreer 101 ;

of the Superior Court of Quebec, will address the annual National Meeting of the Association of Canadian Clubs Saturday on the topic of multicuituralism, the host Eastern Townships Women’s Canadian Club announced this week.Deschênes will give his talk at a 12:30 luncheon at Hotel LeBaron, the site of the two-day conference.There will be a welcoming wine and cheese party Friday night from 7 to 8:30.Sherbrooke Mayor Jean-Paul Pelletier will be present Saturday to welcome Deschenes and members of Canadian Clubs from across the country.The price of the luncheon is $20 for members, $22 for nonmembers.Born in Montreal June 7, 1923, Deschenes studied law at the University of Montreal, graduating in 1946 with the Governor-General’s and Lieutenant-Governor’s medals.He was appointed Queen’s Counsel in 1961 and became a senior partner in the firm of Deschenes, de Grandpré, Colas, Godin & Lapointe in 1966, a position he held until 1972.In the years between 1965 and 1967, he served as president of the Quebec branches of the Canadian Bar Association and Defense Research Institute, and was the first president of the Quebec Interprofessional Council.He served as a Justice of the Court of Appeal of Quebec for one year beginning March, 1972.In August, 1873 he was appointed Chief Justice of the Superior Court of Quebec, spending exactly 10 years in that position.In addition to his vast judicial experience, Deschenes is extremely active in the field of human rights.He is a member of the Board of Directors and Executive Committee of The Hon.Jules Deschenes will be in Sherbrooke Saturday.the Canadian Foundation for Human Rights, and is currently serving a three-year term as an elected member of the United Nations Subcommittee on Prevention of Discrimination and Protection of Minorities in Geneva.Deschenes is perhaps best known recently for his landmark decision over the province’s language law, Bill 101, when he ruled the Canadian Charter of Human Rights with its ‘Canada Clause’ language of education stipulations superseded the provincial legislation and its ‘Quebec Clause’ restrictions, thereby easing access to English-language educa tion in Quebec.For more

diseases, says a Toronto researcher.Dr.Willard Dobrovolsky, in London to address the annual conference of the Great Lakes chapter of the Undersea Medical Society on the weekend, said four years of research into hyperbaric oxygen therapy has shown exciting results for patients who might otherwise face repeated surgery and loss of increasing amounts of tissue and jaw bone.The diving is not an orthodox jump into a pool but rather a controlled exposure of the patient to pure oxygen after being taken down to the equivalent of about 10 metres of water in the special hyperbaric oxygen chamber.Dobrovolsky said the technique is useful in treating the bone and tissue- social notes 50th anniversary «lyisw On August 18, 1984, the East Farnham Town Hall was the scene of a very pleasant

Sherbrooke Hospital Foolsf|re Sept- 27, 7:30 P"1 destroying disease, osteoarthritis, as well as osteoradionecrosis, a bone and tissue disease which some people get after radiation treatment for mouth cancer.Saturating patients’ tissues with oxygen under pressure appears to shorten the treatment period and allow a quicker return to normal lives, he said.The dental surgeon explained some osteoradionecrosis patients who have undergone radiation therapy for oral cancer develop tooth decay as a result of the radiation striking their teeth.Sometimes these teeth later have to be removed and it is then that tissue and bone damage begins to occur, resulting in pieces of jawbone breaking away.He told the conference it can be extremely painful and said he has known one patient to commit suicide and another to die of malnutrition after massive bone loss.Small arteries become blocked off, resulting in a lack of oxygen getting to the tissues of the mouth and an inability of it to heal normally, he said in an interview.TREATS ABOUT 30 In the hyperbaric oxygen chamber at Toronto General Hospital where about 30 patients have been treated over the last four years, doctors have been attempting to induce the body to produce new blood vessels so that the tissue can return to a “close to normal situation’’ in its ability to transport oxygen, he said.Dobrovolsky stressed the hyperbaric oxygen is only part of the process and the patient must still undergo corrective surgery such as a bone graft to replace the missing bone.“But what it (hyperbaric oxygen) does is provide a decent environmen-tin which to put a bone graft or perform reconstruction,” he said.Osteomyelitis, an inflammation of the bone which can occur in any bone in the body after a fracture or even in the jaw after an abscess and sometimes after a root canal repair, also appears to respond to the oxygen treatment in many patients, he said.The technique used at Toronto General involves subjecting patients to 10 successive daily dives in the chamber for 130 minutes, followed by whatever corrective surgery is needed and then giving them another 10 to 20 dives over the next few weeks.Victims of the crippling disease, multiple sclerosis, have been undergoing similar treatments at a special diving chamber in Tobermory, Ont.Results of the research are to be released next spring.Pregnant teens less likely to develop breast cancer REGINA (CP) —Women who become pregnant in their teens are less likely to develop breast cancer, an American cancer specialist said recently.Dr.J.David Beatty, in a lecture sponsored by the Canadian Cancer Society in Saskatchewan, said pregnancy before a woman reaches 30, and especially before she is 20, alters hormone production and changes the breast tissue so it is less likely to develop cancer.Beatty, who has worked in cancer treatment in Toronto, Winnipeg, San Diego, Calif., and London, said there also appears to be an association between the amount of animal fat women eat and breast cancer.In the United States, where women consume more red meat, the incidence of breast cancer is higher than in Canada.Beatty, now based in California, said it is believed there are carcinogens in the agents used to fatten an animal and in the preparation of the meat that may cause cancer.USE MODERATION He said he is not advising women to be- come vegetarians and to abstain from red meat, but suggested they eat only moderate amounts.Beatty told 160 doctors packed into the Regina General Hospital auditorium that women whose mothers, aunts or grandmothers had breast cancer are at high risk of developing cancer and should be examined every two years until they reach 40 and every year afterwards.One in 15 women in North America now develop breast cancer, he said.Beatty said number of women with lung cancer—which used to be thought of as a man’s disease — is catching up to the rate of breast cancer.“That’s a shame, be- cause we know how to prevent lung cancer,” he said.“Stop smoking.” Progress is being made in the treatment of breast cancer, Beatty said, but most women still must have their entire breast removed to stop the spread of the disease.Partial breast removal can only be used in one-quarter of the cases.Divorce or separation: You must seek legal advice Perth, Ont., a former resident of East Farnham, read a very interesting poem he had written for the occasion.Guests attending the party came from the Toronto area, Peterborough, Perth, Ottawa, and Brinston, Ontario; from Colchester, Newport, and Rutland, Vermont; and from Brownsburg, Farnham, Foster, Granby, Magog, Montreal, Waterloo, Sutton, Cowansville, Brigham, and East Farnham, Quebec.Jessie and Lawrence were the recipients of many anniversary cards and congratulatory wishes from the Prime Minister, Mr.John N.Turner; the Member of Parliament from Brome- Missisquoi, Mr.André Bachand; and the Mayor of East Farnham, Mr.Pierre Côté.Q.My husband and I are constantly fighting and I would like to get a divorce.When I tell him that I want to leave, he threatens that if I leave him, he will see to it that I do not get custody of our three children and that I will not get a penny from him.What can I do?A.The first step is to seek legal advice to determine if you have grounds for a legal separation or a divorce.It would not be adviseable for you to move out of the family domicile and especially not adviseable to leave without the children.The only exception to this would be in the case of an emergency when your husband is threatening immediate physical harm to yourself or the children.Once it has been determined that you will institute divorce or separation proceedings, your attorney will make a motion to the court to obtain interim custody and relief, that is, provisional custody of the children and an alimentary pension for yourself and the children to provide support until the judgment of divorce or separation is pronounced by the court.You may also petition the court at the same time to order your husband to reside elsewhere other than the family domicile during the proceedings if he has refused to leave.In order for your husband to obtain custody of the children, he would have to prove to the satisfaction of the court that it is in the interest of the children’s welfare that he be granted custody.As the courts in the past have favoured granting custody of young children to the mother, your husband would have to prove that the children are being mistreated or seriously neglected by yourself in some way.When both parents are seeking custody of their children, the court with the consent of the parents usually order a psycho-social expertise to be Legally I speaking By Jacqueline Kouri jgp conducted by the social service centre (Centre de services sociaux de l’E strie) in order that the court be better informed as to the social and psychological implications in the case.A psychologist or social worker will then conduct a series of interviews.Each party will be interviewed separately at their respective residences, the children will be interviewed with the mother alone and the father alone.If the expertise is being conducted by a psychologist, the children and sometimes the parents, will undergo testing designed to determine the relationship of each child with each of his or her parents.A report will then be prepared in which the expert will make recommendations to the court as to which parent should be granted custody of the children.The conclusions of this report are not binding on the court and may be contested by either of the parties.At the hearing for custody, the expert will testify as to the conclusions of the report and both parties will present their proof to convince the court that they and not the other parent should be granted custody.Basically, this achieved by attempting to prove that the other party is less competent, loving, ect.than him or herself.A custody suit is avery traumatic time for the parents but more so for the children.Even when the parents are careful not to make derogatory remarks about the other parent in front of the children, the children are affected.They become very upset as they feel tom between the two parents and do not want to hurt either one.For this reason, the attorneys involved will usually try to negotiate an agreement between the parents as to custody.Although your husband is threatening to petition the court for custody of the children, it may be that once proceedings have been instituted he will agree that it would make more sense for you to have custody of the children.As far as an alimentary pension is concerned, the court will fix the amount of the pension based on the proven needs of yourself and the children and your husband’s ability to pay.Even if he is not able to pay one hundred percent of our financial needs and you are obliged to seek support from welfare, he will still be ordered by the court to contribute according to his means.In conclusion, if you have decided that you must seek a divorce or separation from your husband, then you should consult an attorney who will advise you whether or not given the facts in your particular situation you would be granted custody of your children and the amount of financial support you could expect to be awarded by the court given your matrimonial regime, your husband’s financial status and your needs.Jacqueline Kouri is an attorney in private practise in lennoxville, P.Q.Address questions to “Legally Speaking”, The Record, P.O.Box

RECORD—Wednesday, September 26, 1984—7 the1 Accord U.S.deregulation hurting railroad industry MONTREAL (CP) — American railways are paying millions of dollars in secret rebates to Canadian shippers to influence the routing of transborder traffic and bleed revenue from Canadian carriers, a federal inquiry has been told.In briefs filed with the Canadian Transport Commission, Canada’s two national railways, CP Rail and Canadian National Railway Co., say the rebates are one of several negative side-effects for Canada arising from the four-year-old deregulation of the U.S.rail industry.They are telling a transport commission inquiry in Montreal this week that Ottawa must take action to combat extraterritorial effects of the 1980 Staggers Act, which withdrew antitrust protection American railways had enjoyed for almost a century.The three-member panel studying the effects on Canada of U.S.deregulation opened hearings in Montreal on Monday and will visit several cities.Cross-examination of CN Rail wit- nesses started briefly Monday and continues today.The national railways want those portions of Canadian rail legislation dealing with transborder rail traffic changed to harmonize with the deregulated U.S.environment, notably by allowing them to fight the rebates and other additional powers granted American carriers that can determine the route of freight shipments.MAKE DEALS The Staggers Act allows U.S.railways to make confidential deals with shippers as well as to cancel routes or apply surcharges if they feel the published rates are unprofitable.Canadian carriers can do neither and the stakes are huge : About 25 per cent of CN's freight revenues and 22 per cent of CP Rail’s involve traffic crossing the Canada-U.S.border.In a letter dated June 18 to then-transport minister Lloyd Axworthy, the presidents of CN Rail and CP Rail estimated the two railways have lost $100 million so far because of U.S.de- regulation.The Canadian carriers say U.S.railways are using arbitrary route cancellations and rebates to encourage so-called short-hauling of the two Canadian railways.When rail traffic takes place on a route covering more than one company’s line, the participating carriers share revenue on a proportional basis.Short-hauling occurs when a railway offers a shipper an inducement to minimize another railway’s participation by reducing the distance travelled on its line.The Canadian companies say U.S.railways are using rebates and cancelling transborder routes to that end.It isn’t clear whether accepting a rebate violates Canadian law.In transcontinental service, this can have a dramatic impact.For example, the most financially advantageous routing for CP Rail on traffic from Vancouver to the U.S.Northeast is across Canada to Welland, Ont., a distance of 4,456 kilometres.American railroads, by offering better terms—often with secret benefits — are persuading some shippers to divert traffic into the U.S.at North Portal, Sask., a distance of 1,985 kilometres, says CP Rail.The Canadian railways want the right to cancel transborder routes themselves and impose surcharges to retaliate against short-hauling.Under the Canadian Railway Act now, a shipper can challenge the closing of a route before the transport commission.CN Rail and CP Rail also want the freedom to sign confidential contracts with transborder shippers.They say they would still file the contracts with the transport commission, but only for the other railway’s perusal.They also say they don’t want changes in the domestic rate-setting system, including the collective nature of pricing.And they want all rates and contracts to continue to be published.Firm predicts higher sales tax will cost 17,000 jobs OTTAWA (CP) — Increasing the federal sales tax is the wrong move and will cost jobs, push up prices and leave Canadians financially worse off than before, the head of a private economic forecasting firm warned Monday.But because it can be blamed, in part, on the Liberals and because the government is desperate for revenue, the tax increase will likely go through on Oct.1 as scheduled, Mike McCracken, Informetrica Ltd.president, said Monday.The Ottawa firm has calculated the tax increase will eventually result in the loss of some 17,000 jobs, push up prices three-tenths of a percentage point and reduce the country’s economic output by about $800 million a year in today’s dollars.“The immediate impact will be an increase in the price of manufactured goods people buy in Canada,” McCracken said.“So, you’ll pay more for an automo- bile for example, you’ll pay more for clothing, more for any item that’s taxed.” Canadians will even pay more for services since those who provide them will also be hit by higher prices on goods purchased to run their businesses, he added.The cost of construction will also rise because the tax on building materials is also being increased.The increase in the federal sales tax rate to 10 per cent from nine per cent on manufactured goods and to six per cent from five per cent on building materials was to pay for the Liberal government’s Special Recovery Program announced in the April 1983 budget.However, the tax-increase legislation was not passed before Parliament was dissolved and the Conservatives must reintroduce the legislation if they want the increase to go ahead.DECISION SOON The Conservatives have not yet said Economists predict lower world oil consumption CALGARY (CP) — Slack demand and stable prices, coupled with competition from nuclear power and natural gas, will characterize the world oil market until at least 1990, experts at an oil and gas marketing conference said Monday.However, John Lichtblau, a New York-based energy analyst, said world oil demand will reverse a four-year decline and spike upward as much as 2.5 per cent this year before levelling off.The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, once the villain on the international energy scene, will face continued downward pressure on prices while trying to maintain their production.One analyst said the world oil market has undergone permanent change and oil use will continue to drop unless exporters cut prices drastically.Massoud Vajed-Samii, OPEC’s head of finance, told the conference that his organization wants non-OPEC producers to co-operate in maintaining price stability.Non-OPEC producers such as Britain and Mexico benefit from stable markets as much as OPEC does, he said.A serious decline in world prices would trigger an economic crisis as heavily-indebted producers such as Latest prices MONTREAL (CP) — Agriculture Department quotations Monday : Butter: Canadian Dairy Commission car lots basis Montreal and Toronto

revenue for a government desperate for funds, McCracken said.Further, the government plans meetings later this year with the provinces, business and labor.If a tax break is already given, it would lessen Ottawa’s bargaining power, he said.As well, businesses have expected the increase all along so they should have incorporated its effects into their planning, he said.And those pushing the new government to reduce the deficit, which hit an estimated record $32.4 billion last year, “will be pleased,” McCracken said.A decision on the tax increase is one of several the new government is expected to make before presenting a budget, expected in March 1985, he said.These include the annual setting of the unemployment insurance contribution rate, which is usually announced by the end of October.Informetrica expects the rate will remain unchanged while there will be a five-per-cent increase in the ceiling on earnings subject to the levy to cover inflation.McCracken also expects the interim agreement between Ottawa and the oil and gas producing provinces of British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan, which lapses at the end of 1984, will be extended another six months and then replaced with a new energy policy.Canadian space firms try for more U.S.sales JASPER, Alta.(CP) — The prospects for Canada's aerospace industry seem to be brightening, says Ken Lewis, former chief of the armed forces’ Air Command.Lewis retired from the forces last year and now is president of the Aerospace Industries Association of Canada.The association represents about 140 Canadian firms who rang up $3.2 billion in sales last year, 80 per cent of them on the export market.They are involved in every area from engineering consulting to development of electronics packages and aircraft production.Despite the sales total there is room for improvement, Lewis and other industry leaders said at the association’s annual general meeting Monday in Jasper.“We believe that Canada, as a relatively wealthy nation, should play a more prominent role in terms of contributing to the NATO alliance, and that there is a need to strengthen our defence industrial base,” Lewis said in an interview.Things began looking up in about 1975 and are even more encouraging now with the new Progressive Conservative government’s commitment to strengthen defence, Lewis said.About 400 industry leaders heard good news from senior civil servants in charge of military procurement Monday, but there were admonitions as well.LOOSENING UP There was also a mixed message from Verne Orr, United States secretary of the air force.Orr said he is trying to loosen up bidding on U.S.defence contracts, which already account for more than half the output of Canada’s defence industry.As well as perhaps including more Canadian firms in precontract brie- fings, the United States is looking at measures such as making specifications simpler and reducing the length of time a company can maintain exclusive rights to a design.Boeing still has proprietary rights to some parts for its B-52 bomber, said Brig.-Gen.Richard Abel, Orr’s press aide.The B-52 went into production in the 1950s and the last one was built in about 1962.Orr was also asked by one industry executive if the United States would consider giving Canadian firms equal opportunity in bids reserved for U.S.small businesses.“I don’t think that has a ghost of a chance,” Orr replied, adding, however, that he is worried about the trend to protectionism in the United States.U.S.congressmen are more and more interested in saving their constituents’ jobs by freezing out potential foreign suppliers, Orr said.The only defence, he said, is for Canadian businessmen and government officials to go to Washington and tell those congressmen what their stand is “doing to international agreements and what it means to defence.” J.H.Simons, executive vice-president of the electronics group of Canadian Marconi Co., told the meeting one reason for the defence industry’s success in the United States is the consolidation of planning, purchase and export responsibilities in the U.S.Defence Department.In Canada, the same functions are split among the Departments of National Defence, Supply and Services and External Affairs.Ray Hession, deputy minister of supply and services, agreed there needs to be more interdepartmental co-ordination and said his own officials are trying to make things easier for the industry.Nigeria and Mexico find it impossible to pay off huge bank debts, Vajed-Samii said.OFFERS ADVICE Lichtblau, president of Petroleum Industry Research Foundation Inc.and a long-time adviser to the United States government, said oil demand in the non-communist world will be between 48 million and 50 million barrels a day by 1990, an increase of two to four million barrels from this year.If all of the increase was supplied by OPEC, the organization’s output would rise to between 21 million and 23 million barrels a day from about 18 million barrels this year, Lichtblau said.However, OPEC would still have about eight million barrels a day of excess capacity.Despite the increases in demand, Lichtblau said by next year demand will still be lower than at the beginning of the decade.Odds favor maintenance of current prices — a world market price of $29 (U.S.) a barrel — because OPEC would act to avoid a collapse, he said.Analysts at the conference agreed that conservation will continue to play a role in curtailing demand.Substitutes such as natural gas and nuclear power will continue to erode oil’s market share, at least until 1990, they said.Any growth in oil markets would take place in developing countries, but that would be constrained by the heavy debt payments of developing countries.CUTS THE COST Peter Odell, director of the Centre for International Energy Studies at Rotterdam's Erasmus University, said a substantial portion of the world’s known oil reserves can be cheaply produced and are a lower cost energy source than some alternatives.He projected a long-term decline in oil prices to $24 a barrel in 1984 U.S.dollars by the end of the decade and less than $20 a barrel by the year 2000.Lichtblau said if the existing price structure fails, oil prices could “go down a hell of a lot" and he said he envisioned prices below $20 a barrel.At that level, he said, they would still be economic for local-cost producers such as Saudi Arabia.The situation would be only temporary, however, because exploration for new resources would be curtailed and eventually the price must go up.Canadian oil industry executives have said oil exploration in Canada depends on market prices.Much of Canada's remaining oil reserves, including oil sands and offshore fields, are expensive to find and produce.The whole $4,750,000 Jackpot Pool must be won in 'SportSelectï Final Baseball Pool This Sunday!

Howser isn’t expecting his sleep to improve, even though the Royals now lead the American League West Division by IVi games over Minnesota Twins.“If you look at it realistically, we have a one-game lead,” said Howser, whose team is one game ahead in the loss column with four to play.“We're planning on having to win every game.“We’d like to get some help from somebody, but you can’t count on it.Some funny things happen in this game.” The Royals defeated California 6-5 in 12 innings Tuesday night, making it three baseball victories in a row over the Angels and five straight overall.That gave the Royals an additional game over Minnesota, which lost 8-4 to Chicago White Sox, and dropped the Angels 4V2 back.“I’ll sleep tonight just like I did last night — fitfully,” Howser said.Minnesota manager Billy Gardner probably wasn’t going to sleep any better, but he wasn’t too dismayed.“If Kansas City loses, we’re in good shape, and if they don’t, we re still in good shape,” Gardner said before learning the outcome of the extrainning contest in Kansas City.The Royals came back to tie the score 5-5 in the ninth on a run-batted-in hit by pinch-hitter Dane lorg, who started the winning rally with a double off Curt Kaufman.After the double, George Brett was walked intentionally, and two outs later, Steve Balboni hit a rocket over the head of Angel left fielder Juan Be-niquez.Balboni stopped at first with a single as he watched U.L.Washington, running for lorg, score the winning run.The Angels scored all five of their runs in the fifth inning.Eqsewhere in the American League, it was : Detroit Tigers 9, Milwaukee Brewers 1 ; New York Yankees 6, BaltimoreOrioles 5; Boston Red Sox 14, Toronto Blue Jays 6; Oakland A s 7, Texas Rangers 5 and Cleveland Indians 13, Seattle Mariners 5.White Sox 8 Twins 4 Harold Baines hit a two-run homer in Chicago’s seven-run second inning, and Tom Seaver, 15-10, worked 8 2-3 innings for his 288th career victory.Red Sox 14 Blue Jays 6 Mike Easier homered and drove in five runs, and Jim Rice had four hits in an 18-hit attack that helped Boston bury Toronto after Boston manager Ralph Houk announced he would retire at the end of the season.Tigers 9 Brewers 1 Howard Johnson hit a grand slam homer as Detroit dealt Milwaukee the loss that clinched last place in the East Division for the Brewers.The Tigers have already clinched first place in the division.Yankees 6 Orioles 5 Dave Winfield and Don Mattingly continued their race for the league batting title as New York beat the Orioles.Winfield went 2-for-4, scoring a pair of runs, to up his average one point to .342.Mattingly, who was 1-for-3, remained at .344.A’s 7 Rangers 5 Oakland scored seven runs in the first two innings off Texas knuckle-bailer Charlie Hough, and Curt Young limited the Rangers to five hits over seven innings.Indians 13 Mariners 5 Pat Tabler hit a grand slam home run and drove in six runs to pace Cleveland's 17-hit attack.Tabler also drove in two runs with a bases-loaded double in the second inning, then hit his grand slam in the fifth.Whalers throw damper on New Jersey party By The Canadian Press Former Devils player Randy Pierce says a little relaxation and great pass from linemate Ron Francis helped Hartford Whalers spoil New Jersey’s National Hockey League exhibition opener.Pierce ignited a two-goal second period with his third goal of the preseason as the Whalers edged the Devils 3-1 Tuesday night He broke a scoreless tie 35 seconds into the middle period, taking a pass from Francis and blasting it past New Jersey goalie Ron Low from five feet out.“I was keyed up forthe game,” said Pierce, an original Devil later traded to the Whalers.“You get psyched up and try to do too much.“Sol just relaxed and got my goal.” Defenceman Chris Kotsopoulos made it 2-0 about five minutes later, rifling a 45-foot blast by Low on a power play.BEATS WEEKS A1 Stewart brought New Jersey to 2-1 after taking a setup from first-round draft pick Kirk Muller in front of the net and beating Steve Weeks It’s a Hull of a decision for Bobby WINNIPEG (CP) — The former wife of hockey star Bobby Hull has failed to win the right to sell shares in the Winnipeg Jets held by her husband, but a judge says it is Hull’s fault that his former wife and the courts didn’t know the shares were beyond reach.Joanne Hull Robinson won a $460,000 divorce settlement three years ago and wanted to sell Hull’s shares in the National Hockey League franchise back to the team for $110,000 to help collect that money.Madam Justice Ruth Krindle of the Manitoba Court of Queen’s Bench handed down a decision Tuesday that supported the claims of two businessmen who say they hold a two-thirds interest in Hull’s shares.James Gobuty and Robert Handler bought their interest in Hull’s shares in 1979, before the 1981 divorce settlement, and Krindle said there was no evidence Hull had been trying to keep the shares out of reach of his wife through the deal.“Had Mr.Hull been converting his assets into cash for the purpose of defeating his wife’s attempts to collect on her judgment, my sentiments would have been quite different,” the judge wrote.However, Krindle said she was tempted to order that Hull pay all the legal fees in the case since he didn’t tell the court in 1981 that someone else had an interest in his shares in the NHL franchise.“The entire fault for the whole of these proceedings lies squarely at the feet of Mr.Hull in his failure to advise the court of all the facts at the time of the divorce proceedings.” She said she will decide later, after hearing from the lawyers involved, whether Hull should pay the legal fees.from in close at 11:02 of the same period.In other NHL exhibition games, it was Buffalo

Whalers secured their second victory when Mike Zuke scored his third goal on an empty-net.Islanders 6 Rangers 2 Anders Kallur and rookie Roger Kortko each scored twice in leading the Islanders to a rout of the Rangers.Also scoring for the Islanders, 1-1, were Billy Carroll and Denis Potvin.For the Rangers, 1-2, Mike Rogers and Blaine Stoughton each had one goal and one assist.Sabres 7 Nordiques 5 Claude Verret, Timo Jutila and Brent Peterson scored three power-play goals in the third period as Buffalo dumped Quebec.The three Buffalo goals were scored with Quebec’s Wally Weir serving a 10-minute misconduct for intent to injure.Michel Goulet got two goals for Quebec, 0-1-1, with singles going to Peter Stastny, Blake Wesley and Weir.Gates Orlando, Dave Andreychuk, Hannu Virta and Sean

despite sitting out seven players who performed in the recent Canada Cup Milby hosts assistant pro tournament MILBY — One hundred golfers from across Canada gathered yesterday at Milby Golf Course to begin practice rounds for the Canadian Assistant Pro Championships tournament which begins today and ends Friday.The championship will take place at Milby for the first time.Milby, celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, has a par of 73.The golfers in the tournament, 49 from Québec, will play a total of 54 holes.Course officials and championship organizers are reluctant to predict the outcome of the tournament.“The calibre of players is too high for me to choose one in particular (who will win),” said Max Oxford, the pro at Milby and co-organizer of the tournament with Dave Ross.He ad- ded that weather permitting, the assistant pros could produce scores better than those of the professionals who competed in the Québec pro’s tournament at Milby last year.BEST IN CANADA With the exception of two Ontario golfers, the best assistant-pros in Canada are competing in the tournament, which offers a total prize money purse of $12,500, $1500 of which goes to the winner.Defending champion Doug Le-cuyer, a short-lived member of the now defunct Sherbrooke Jets of the American Hockey League when that team first arrived in 1982, is back to guard his title.Two golfers who were in

choice _____ BOSTON (AP) — Ralph Houk, the oldest manager in baseball, was praised Tuesday night as a man with a youthful outlook who gave young players a chance.“Even though he’s 65, he's like a young man; his ideas, his thinking were young,” said Boston right fielder Dwight Evans after Houk announced he will retire as Red Sox manager after this season, his fourth with the American League club.“His personality was young and he’s just a vibrant man.” Houk said at a news conference before Boston’s game Tuesday night with Toronto Blue Jays that he is stepping down after 45 years in the game to spend more time with his family.Moments before the announcement, Houk broke down as he tried to tell his team of his decision.“He opened his mouth and nothing came out,” said club owner Haywood Sullivan.Later, Houk did talk to his team in an emotional clubhouse meeting.“It’s kind of sad; I got a little emotional.” said pitcher Dennis Boyd.“I tried not to look at him.” Boyd, 24, was 0-3 with Boston at the start of this season before being sent to Pawtucket of the International League.Since his recall May 30 he is 12-7.“I could quote him many times telling me ‘you’ll be back, you’ll be a big winner this year.’” Boyd said.“He made me a major league pitcher.” Catcher Rich Gedman, 25, said: “He gave me a chance to play.He made me belong.“When I was l-for-18 he’d say, ‘Don’t worry, kid, they (hits) come in bunches like bananas.’” Others expressed similar feelings.“His track record shows he gave a lot of first-year players a chance,” said rookie pitcher A1 Nipper, referring to Alan Trammell and Lou Whitaker who broke in with Detroit Tigers while Houk was manager there.“He’s very instrumental in getting my career off the ground.“I’m just sorry to see him go.” Expos won’t make .500 il tournament.Pat Hughes scored twice with single going to Dave Hunter, Larry Melnyk, Mike Krushelnyski, Dave Lumley — on a penalty shot — and Dave Semenko as the Oilers remained

lowest rounds earning from Thivierge and Starchuck.Both scored 68.By Terry Scott MONTREAL (CP) — Steve Braun reached a milestone Tuesday night and St.Louis teammate Bruce Sutter moved a step closer to one in the Cardinals' 6-4 National League baseball win over Montreal Expos.A pinch-hitting specialist, Braun became one of only nine major leaguers to collect 100 career pinch hits.His fifth-inning triple had special meaning because it knocked in two of four runs scored by St.Louis in the inning.Sutter, meanwhilç, entered the game in the eighth after Gary Carter’s solo home run — his 26th — had cut the Cardinals’ lead to 6-4.He pitched the final two innings to record his 44th save, one fewer than the major league record set by Dan Quisenberry of Kansas City Royals last season.The Cardinals trailed 3-2 before Braun’s blow off starter Bill Gul-lickson, 11-9.Singles by David Green and Darrell Porter, followed by Bill Lyons’s RBI double preceded Braun's triple down the right-field line.Braun was replaced by pinch runner Danny Cox, who made it 5-3 by scoring on Gullickson’s wild pitch.Braun had been hitless in six previous attempts at reaching the 100 plateau.HAS REMINDERS “I’ve been thinking about it,” he said.“I was reminded throughout the day by my teammates with jibes.” Although Braun has much ground to cover to overtake career pinch-hit leader M anny Mota ’ s 150 hits, his next target is Mike Lum, with 103.Sutter has put his famed splitfingered fastball to work in piling up saves.Sutter has earned a save in 21 of the last 23 opportunities.“I’m not a statistics person,” said Sutter when the save record was mentioned.“I suppose I should have the chance to tie it in at least one of our last five games.Tve been happy just to break the National League record.” Kevin Hagen, 1-0, was the winning pitcher for the Cardinals, with a two-inning relief job for starter Dave LaPoint, who left after four innings, trailing 3-1.Two of the runs came on Andre Dawson’s 17th homer in the first.MacBassett beats King Connors SEATTLE (AP) — Jimmy Connors and Billie Jean King suffered first set losses but bounced back to win their respective matches against John McEnroe
