Waterville Cellular set for merger with Ontario company “Look again.Surely there's someone we can drop our surplus bombs on.’’ U.S.battles to be chosen says Clark VANCOUVER (CP) — The federal Progressive Conservative government plans to pick its fights with the United States instead of taking a combative approach to every cross-border issue, External Affairs Minister Joe Clark said Monday.Clark told reporters in Vancouver his government’s approach to the U.S.will consist of “focusing on particular issues of particular importance to us and avoiding unnecessary friction on other questions.” He also said during an impromptu press conference following the signing of the final agreement in the Skagit River, Treaty that the government hopes to expand its influence on the Soviet Union.Clark also said the government is watching “with very real concern” developments surrounding the slaying of Rev.Jerzy Popieluszko, a pro-Solidarity Polish priest.Clark declined an opportunity to take a swipe at the former Liberal government’s handling of relations with the U.S., saying only that the Tories plan to approach the U.S.differently.OUTLINES DIFFERENCE One difference “has to do with selecting the issues on which we fight rather than fighting on every issue, really digging in deeply and fighting,” Clark said.One issue on which Canada will fight is the effect of U.S.-produced acid rain on the Canadian environment, he said.“The question of acid rain is a question of critical importance to Canada and we have to be turning a great deal of our attention to making sure that Canada succeeds on the acid rain question,” Clark said.The Tory government believes “there has been a dramatic maturing in Canada, that if 15 or 20 years ago we had to worry inordinately about the strength of our identity and feel ourselves threatened by the United States, we have a much stronger national identity now.” Regions such as the West and Quebec no longer suffer from a lack of confidence, he said.On the subject of arms control, Clark said Canada has “a greater degree of influence on the United States because we are much closer to them in virtually every way, including values and perspective.” However, Canada has some influence in the Soviet Union “and our government hopes to be able to find ways in which we can widen the limited range of influence that we have upon both the Soviet government and the Russian people,” Clark said.By Bobby Fisher WATERVILLE — A merger agreement between owners of Waterville Cellular Products and Woodbridge Foam Corporation of Rexdale, Ont will be signed Wednesday, Waterville company president Thomas Markey said Monday.The merger will not force any personnel changes nor will it disrupt pre- sent production schedules, Markey said.Instead, it may prove to be a job producer “a few years down the line ”, he added.Terms of the deal, which are being rechecked before signing, were not released but Markey did allow that a transfer of shares between the owners of Waterville Cellular and Wood-bridge Foam will take place.“I can’t tell you more than that,” he said.WHO, WHAT.WHY?In a bulletin circulated to employees several weeks ago, Waterville Cellular management revealed its intentions and explained who its new partners are, what they do and why the merger is being made Woodbridge Foam was formed in 1978 when Monsanto

11 allow them to form the effective position in the Commons when urliament reconvenes Nov.5.NDP Leader Ed Broadbent told renters the sheer size of the new mservative majority is forcing the irty to modify its plan of attack from ; days of opposition against a Libe-1 government.The party is also determined to hold e new Conservative government to s campaign promises of real ange, Broadbent said.“The Conservatives for decades iw have been promising if they were ven a majority government they auld produce a real change,” the DP leader said.“We as a party that was in opposi->n to the Liberals know we have a ¦ry different situation to deal with in rmsof the personalities.We suspect e policies of the Conservatives are it going to be different from the Lirais but we aren’t going to prejudge at entirely.” Broadbent said the caucus discus-id what kind of pressure it could •ing to bear to hold the Tories to their -omises but insisted on keeping his irds close to his vest, saying he knew anadians would understand.¦IVES REASONS "That’s part of the reality of politi- cal life in Ottawa — that you practise your tactics, you don’t talk about them.” However, he did say there would be a different style of opposition because the party, with 30 Commons seats, now is at its strongest relative to the 40-member official Liberal Opposition.The Tories have 211 seats in the 282-seat Commons.The Liberal party, which he said was all over the ideological map during the election campaign, no longer has a precise policy to stand up for in the Commons.He said the NDP intends to fill that gap.New Democrats said repeatedly during the campaign leading up to the aepi.4 eiecuon that the party stands for the rights of ordinary Canadians, including fair taxation and equality for women.Meanwhile, discussions continue among the parties on the amount of money to be made available to help opposition parties with their research.The NDP caucus appointed its officers, including Ian Deans, MP for Ontario’s Hamilton-Mountain riding, as their House leader and Vic Althouse, who represents Saskatchewan's Humboldt-Lakc Centre riding, as party whip.Nelson Riis, MP for Kam loops-Shuswap riding in British Columbia, will be the caucus chairman.Earlier, Broadbent confirmed the party is in debt following the election but denied the situation is worse than in other years.An internal party document, dis cussed by the party at a weekend meeting, called the NDP’s resources “absurdly limited,” and noted its pro vincial sections still owe the federal party about $1.5 million.Under the party constitution, 15 per cent of money raised in the provinces, both by provincial parties and provin cial wings of the federal party, is automatically transferred to the NDP in Ottawa.its Urethane Foam division in Wood-bridge, Ont.and two employees purchased the plant, the bulletin said.Since that time employee numbers have risen from 400 to 1000 and there are plants located in Woodbridge, Tilbury, Ont.and Brodhead, Wisconsin, the release continued.Like Woodbridge Foam, Waterville Cellular is a company purchased from its former owners — B F Goodrich — by employees that started small and made it big.Other foam fabrication factories, on a smaller scale, owned by Wood-bridge are located in Montreal, Concord, Ont., Winnipeg, Port Hope, Ont.and in Florida Woodbridge Sec WATERVILLE, page 3 Thatcher on stand, denies involvement SASKATOON (CP) — Colin That cher looked at the jury Monday and in a quiet, straightforward voice, denied any involvement in the murder of his former wife, JoAnn Wilson.The Court of Queen’s Bench was abnormally hushed as the wealthy rancher-politician took the stand for four hours in his own defence.The former provincial energy minister is charged with the first-degree murder of Wilson, whose body was found in a pool of blood in the garage of her Regina lu me Jan.21, 1983 Thatcher seemed relaxed and calm as he replied “no” to defence lawyer Gerald Allbright’s questions.He said he had nothing to do with either the murder or an earlier incident in which Wilson was wounded by a sniper.The son of former Saskatchewan premier Ross Thatcher also testified he was at his Moose Jaw home, eating dinner with his two sons and house keeper, the night his former wife was killed.Thatcher described one Crown witness.his former girlfriend Lynn Men-dell, as a person he sometimes cared for, but never trusted.He denied some of the statements she made and said others were twisted versions of what actually was said.He agreed a credit card slip found at the murder scene bore what seems to be his signature, but had no explanation how it arrived at the site Thatcher admitted to buying a handgun in California the year before the murder, but said it was stolen from his Palm Springs, Calif., condominium sometime in 1982 He described his last six months in the Regina Correctional Institute as “hell” and said he was relieved when the trial was moved to Saskatoon “It was like coming out of the depths of darkness into daylight, coming from Regina to Saskatoon,” he said Thatcher, dressed in a brown, pinstripe suit, spoke clearly and calmly.At times he smiled At other moments he was deadpan He looked straight at the jury from time to time, his dark eyes sunk under his brows, making a sharp contrast to the pallor of his face and the pasty look of his jowls.Thatcher said he had a good marriage for all but the last few months, when his wife was approaching her 40th birthday.She then became moo dy and depressed.He said he didn't believe she was having an affair with his best friend, Ron Graham, right up until she ran off with Graham in August 1979on the couple's 17th wedding anniversary.“I couldn’t believe that my best friend, who went back to Grade 2, could betray me like this,” Thatcher said.He later discovered JoAnn and Gra ham had conducted an affair since 1978.He said he did his best to salvage the marriage before JoAnn left and denied his relationship with his ex-wife was bitter."I’m not going to suggest that I was the perfect husband,” he said “If Quebec doctors’ head tells trial OK to break unfair Morgentaler abortion laws TORONTO (CP) — Canada s abortion law is unfair and people are justified in disobeying it for the good of society, the head of an organization governing Quebec doctors told an Ontario Supreme Court jury Monday.Dr.Augustin Roy, testifying for the defence at the trial of Dr.Henry Morgentaler and two associates of his Toronto abortion clinic, said he counselled patients on contraceptive techniques when such advice was illegal.He says he believes he acted properly to defy the law.Asked by Crown counsel Alan Cooper whether people should disobey the abortion law simply because they don't agree with it, Roy said breaking an unfair law is often the best way to get legislators to change it He said it would be a backward step not to make abortion readily accessible in all parts of Canada as it is in Quebec Roy, president and secretary general of the Professional Corporation of Physicians of Quebec — the equivalent of the Ontario College of Physicians and Surgeons — testified he "has never performed an abortion.He said a woman should have the right to terminate a pregnancy.“Our (corporation’s) role is to help people, not to judge them or teach them morals or ask them about their private life,” he said.“We try to help those who go through difficult times, and that includes abortion.” Roy said when he started as a young practitioner in the remote Quebec communities of Shefferville and Te-miskaming during the 1950s, he wouldn’t dare counsel a patient on contraception "When we studied gynecology, we would go right over those pages,” he said.“We weren't supposed to read them " He later learned “the reality of life,” and once arranged — on behalf of another doctor — to have a pregnant nun admitted to a Montreal hospital for an abortion The matter was kept confidential.Few people besides besides "the priest who was the culprit" knew about the case, he said The nun went back to teaching in a northern Quebec town without even her superior being any the wiser.there was a time in our marriage when I was the perfect husband, it was the last eight months.” After JoAnn left, taking the two youngest children, Regan and Stephanie, Thatcher still hoped for a reconciliation “I was doing everything possible to entice her to come back ” He eventually tracked her down in the Toronto area, flew out and took back the children from the school they were attending.That began a long series of court fights over custody.Thatcher maintained he had cordial talks with JoAnn following their divorce and after her marriage in January 1981, to steel company exccu live Tony Wilson He said they had worked out an agreement on a new divorce settlement before she was shot and wounded in May 1981 The Crown has sug gested the renegotiated settlement, signed following the wounding, was a key motive for Thatcher to shoot his wife.Thatcher said he had to renegotiate the original $820,IKK) divorce settlement at that time unparalleled in Canada — because it meant “financial ruination for me.” JoAnn finally agreed to $500,000 payable over a period of years.Mendell, a California blonde with a golden tan who was Thatcher’s girl friend from the fall of 1980 until the spring of 1983, testified Thatcher boasted of killing his wife.She said he told her it was "a strange feeling to blow your wife away.” DENIES STATEMENT Thatcher denied saying that: “We were in bed and she asked me, very quietly, did you blow her away?’ “1 said I can’t imagine what a strange feeling that would be, but I did not do it.” Mendell testified she read Thatcher a newspaper clipping describing how Wilson had been cruelly beaten, then shot.She said Thatcher reacted by saying: "1 don’t know why they said she was beaten.I didn’t beat her.” Thatcher also denied that statement “She asked why would they beat her and then shoot her." he said “I said I have no idea.I went on to say whoever was in (the garage) was an animal anyway.No one could do that to another human being.” He described Mendell as someone who "has had some very unique expe riences with soft drugs.” He said she wanted to marry him, although he was not eager to marry her.He countered testimony Mendell lived in his condominium for any length of time He said he used Palm Springs as a playground and did not want to gel serious with Mendell.MADE EXCUSES He also said he used his former wife as an excuse to put off Mendell’s efforts to marry him.“I’d say, look, I’ve got this property settlement hanging over my head that I’ve got to get sorted out,” he said."1 think that she became rather bitter towards JoAnn without ever knowing her.” He admitted purchasing a gun after a strange incident involving seven red roses, which he received in California late in January 1982, a year after the first Wilson shooting “I was mystified,” he said."Who would send me seven roses?” He said he received an anonymous phone call, in which a male caller said: "Whether you're in Saskatoon or in California we can get at you any time we want.” Frightened by the incident, Thatcher said he bought a weapon, although he admitted he was probably “over-reacting.” Gun dealer Ronald Williams testified he sold Thatcher a Ruger Security Six .357 magnum revolver in February 1982.A firearms expert testified a similar weapon was used to murder Wilson.Thatcher said he bought the gun and filled out all the required registration papers.Thatcher said the pistol was stolen from his condominium in mid-1982. 2—The RKCOKD—Tuesday.October 30.19H4 PC strategists jump Mulroney ship, one blames PMO choices delay OTTAWA (CP) — Four top Conservative strategists who served Prime Minister Mulroney as his mam policy development group in Opposition have either gone to the private sector or to other government areas since the appointment last month of Montrealer Bernard Roy as Mulroney's principal secretary, Tory insiders said Monday.Their departure, which one government official said was accompanied by some “expressions of concern” about delay in filling senior spots in the prime minister’s office, leaves what appears to be a temporary gap in the policy development side of Mulroney’s office But that is expected to begin chan ging today with an announcement that Charles McMillan, Mulroney’s key policy adviser in Opposition, will be the prime minister’s senior policy adviser in government.He will likely head a new team of policy people who will play a key role in the government’s long-term direction.Three of the advisers reached by telephone Monday said no bad feelings were associated with their departure from Mulroney’s office.One had planned to leave government anyway, another went straight to a cabinet minister's office following the Sept 4 election and another said he maintains a "linkage” with Mulroney's office while working temporarily for Finance Minister Michael Wilson.Quebec could take lesson from Reagan — Bourassa MONTREAL(CP)—Québec should take a fiscal lesson from the stunning economic recovery of the United States under President Ronald Reagan, Liberal Leader Robert Bourassa said Monday Bourassa told business students at the University of Québec at Montreal the province must respect "the laws of the market’ ' if it hopes to flourish as it did under Liberal governments in the 1960s and early 1970s.The former premier said Reagan’s policies would have to be tailored to meet Quebec’s needs — and acknowledged there are problems with uneven distribution of tax benefits under the Republican president.But Bourassa said the “over-bureaucratized" province of Québec could gain more from a system of lower taxes and tightly-controlled spen- ding than from Sweden’s welfare state or from France under Socialist President Francois Mitterand.Québec could begin cutting costs by eliminating unnecessary expenditures, such as the government bailout of Québecair or the takeover of Asbestos Corp., Bourassa said.He said Québec will have to change the focus of its economy if it hopes to grow at a time when countries such as Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea and Japan are gaining an ever-larger chunk of the world market.He said more emphasis must be put on the private sector as the motor of the economy.Bourassa conceded 1984 has been an excellent year for the Québec economy, with the province accounting for 20 per cent of Canada’s economic growth.Nov.7 shuttle to launch eighth Canadian satellite OTTAWA (CP) — The NASA space shuttle preparing to launch Canada’s eighth communications satellite next month is also planning a rescue mission that will be the first of its kind The shuttle crew intends to use the Canadarm, the Canadian-built remote manipulator system, to capture two communications satellites trapped in a low orbit after faulty rocket firings in February.Barry Turner, director of satellite control for Telesat Canada, said Monday the satellites, one of which is owned by the United States and the other by Indonesia, will be repaired and relaunched.Since it will be the first time malfunctioning satellites have been rescued, brought back to earth and repaired, Turner said it is impossible to estimate when they will be deployed again.Telesat, the country’s domestic satellite operator, is more interested in the launch of its Anik D2 communications satellite Nov.7.The $75-million satellite will be released into space two days later.Built by Spar Aerospace Ltd.of Toronto, the satellite will be stationed above Medicine Hat, Alta, and sit idle until it is needed.Turner told a news conference.Telesat president Eldon Thompson said the service offered by the Anik D2 may not be required for two years, but it is cheaper to store the 1,240-kilogram satellite in space than on earth.“If new demand develops, Anik D2 can be moved into operational orbit in about three days,” he said in a news release.“If we stored it on earth, it might take months or years to get a launch date.” Embassies may be next on PC cost-cutting list OTTAWA (CP) —The Conservative government may close as many as 10 embassies and consulates abroad next year in an attempt to cut government spending.The Canadian Press has learned.Sources confirmed Monday that External Affairs officials, investigating ways of cutting costs in their department, have prepared a list of 10 foreign offices that could be eliminated.Weathe Mostly sunny today with increasing cloudiness late in the day, high 16.Low tonight -2.Outlook for Wednesday— cloudy, high 11.Although the sources refused to say where the offices are located, they admitted the list includes Canadian consulates in Bordeaux, France, and New Orleans, La., and an office in Kigali, Rwanda in Africa.The other offices likely will be identified when Prime Minister Mulroney’s government outlines its plans in the throne speech opening Parliament Nov.5, government insiders said.French Prime Minister Laurent Fabius is scheduled to visit Ottawa and Quebec City only days after Bordeaux is terminated.But Canada will still have an embassy in Paris and consulates in Marseille and Strasbourg.Government officials are treading carefully as they make their plans because they realize closure of any of Canada’s 124 embassies and consulates could be unpopular at home and abroad, the sources said.Securtl George MacLaren, Publisher 569-9511 Charles Bury, Editor 569-6345 Lloyd G.Scheib, Advertising Manager 569-9525 Mark Guillette, Press

minister’s office last Friday to work for Public Affairs International.“It’s certainly not an acrimonious departure at all,’’ Johnson said Monday.“My personal agenda was always clear,” he said, adding that he had intended to return to the private sector.Johnson worked for the Bank of Montreal before joining Mulroney’s staff in Opposition.lanShugart, another member of the previous policy group, which also ser- ved as the policy secretariat tor Mulroney’s inner shadow cabinet, went to Health Minister Jake Epp’s office immediately after the Tories took power on Sept.17.Peter Burn, a tax specialist for the group before the election, said he was asked by Mulroney to work in Wilson’s office while the Tories put their stamp on government and he expects to return to the prime minister’s office at a later date.Burn said he was seconded to Wilson’s office because the prime minister expects policy to develop in a decentralized manner at the cabinet ministers’ level, with the emphasis away from the Trudeau style of centralized policy initiative.“The operative word is flexible and hopefully it will be flexible,” Burn said.ON TEMPORARY ASSIGNMENT Lorna Higdon, the fourth member of the group and a specialist in communications, has been seconded to work for Communications Minister Marcel Masse.She, too, is on a temporary assignment.McMillan told a conference on government affairs last week that Mulroney will change substantially the way policy is developed by government.He said the prime minister will create a special 12-member advisory group that will originate policy ideas and serve as a link between Mulroney and the public.As well, the role of the Privy Council office, traditionally serving as a source of policy secretariats for cabinet committees, will change.Several Tories played down the departure of Mulroney’s former policy aides, saying it was part of what could be considered normal transition into government.But one of the Tories associated with the group expressed regret that the prime minister will no longer draw directly on its talent.“It’s a tragedy the group hasn’t been kept together,” he said, ernment.But one of the Tories associated with the group expressed regret that the prime minister will no longer draw directly on its talent.“It’s a tragedy the group hasn’t been kept together,” he said.PC-Lib duo to check parliamentary salaries OTTAWA (CP) — Former Conservative MP Bill Clarke, who lost to Opposition Leader John Turner in last month’s federal election, and defeated Liberal MP Coline Campbell have been appointed to review salaries and benefits paid to parliamentarians.But Clarke said in a telephone interview from Vancouver on Monday he had not been informed of his appointment, made by Prime Minister Mulroney’s cabinet last week.Campbell, who represented Nova Scotia’s South West Nova riding for nine years, was on her way home from a visit to Europe and could not be reached for comment.The government sets up a commission after every election to scrutinize the salaries and benefits paid to MPs and senators so parliamentarians don’t have to decide on their own pay increases.However, the commissions are required to report back to Parliament within six months, where their recommendations must be passed into law.It is not yet clear whether MPs and senators will get their regular annual increase in January, although such pay increases have taken effect the last two times commissions were at work studying parliamentarians’ salaries.EXAMINES INCOME Depending on their precise instructions from cabinet, commissioners can look at parliamentarians’ salaries, pensions, special services, staff salaries and allowances for such things as telephone calls, constituency offices and travel.Clarke, who represented Vancou ver Quadra riding since 1972, said he is returning, at least part-time, to his family’s real estate business.But he said he has let the government know his plans remain flexible and he would welcome a position that would allow him to help out the new government.Parliament passed a law in 1976 which stated that a commission to review salaries and benefits paid to MPs and senators must be set up within two months after election results become official.The first such commission, consisting of a single commissioner, Alfred D.Hales, was established in August 1979 and reported six months later.Hales’ commission called for a review of the parliamentary pay sus-tem, including immediate and substantial increases in salaries for MPs.Hales suggested their tax-free allowances be replaced by three specialized tax-exempt allowances to help MPs pay for a second residence while in Ottawa, cover travel expenses and other incidental costs.REVIEW URGED And he called for establishment of an advisory board made up of nonparliamentarians which would meet every two years to review the pay structure of MPs and senators and look at rates of adjustment of various allowances.But the general tax-free allowances have never been abolished and no advisory board was set up.Instead, a controversial and complicated bill was passed in July 1981 that gave parliamentarians huge raises retroactive to July 1980 and provided for annual cost-of-living increases every Jan.1 tied to the inflation rate.But the June 1982 budget rolled back those increases by five per cent effective that July.It restricted the 1983 raise to six per cent and this year’s increase to five per cent — in line with the former Liberal government’s restraint program.Ordinary MPs this year are getting $52,815 and expense allowances of $17,640 — about 63 per cent more than they earned in 1980.Senators are being paid the same basic salary as MPs and get $8,610 for expenses — about 61 per cent higher than four years ago.Mulroney gets an annual salary of $130,830 in 1984 while Turner, cabinet ministers and the Commons Speaker each see paycheques totalling $110,900 a year.New Democrat Leader Ed Broad-bent earns $94,815.News-in-brief Man charged for pot breath FREDERICTON (CP) — The appeal division of the Court of Queens Bench upheld a lower court decision Monday of finding a Fredericton man guilty of possession of marijuana when all he had was the smell of the drug on his breath.Mr.Justice Ronald C.Stevenson dismissed an appeal by Lee Edward McKay, 19, convicted of marijuana possession in July.He was fined $200 or 20 days in jail.Evidence at the original trial showed McKay was arrested in a park after police noticed he was smoking what they thought was a marijuana cigarette.Stevenson said it was reasonable to conclude that McKay had possession, saying “you can’t have the smell of marijuana on your breath unless you have it in your lungs,” and that meant possession.Explicit handbook risks lawsuit FREDERICTON (CP) — The chairman of the New Brunswick Human Rights Commission, Noel Kinsella, says a sexually explicit handbook published by engineering students at the University of New Brunswick contains grounds for legal action.In an interview Monday, Kinsella said some material in the handbook, published by UNB’s engineering society, is solid grounds for charges if consultation between the groups involved does not produce a satisfactory agreement.Among items the committee called “obscene and degrading” was a song about a woman being mutilated by a large projectile.Calgary girl wins pageant TORONTO (CP) — Karen Elizabeth Tilley, a blue-eyed blond model from Calgary, won the 38th annual Miss Canada pageant Monday night, earning more than $76,000 in cash and prizes and the right to represent Canada at the Miss Universe contest this summer.“I’m just starting to calm down now,” Tilley, 21, said in a telephone interview after she accepted the title from Cynthia Kereluk, last year’s winner and a fellow Alberta resident.“My head was spinning, running in circles when I found out I won.“I guess I was just lucky.Every girl had a good chance going in and we were all equal.” Mohawks resign over lawsuit CORNWALL, Ont.(CP) — About 100 angry Mohawk Indians — opposed to a planned out-of-court settlement in a $50-million lawsuit against two U.S.companies over fluoride pollution — took over the offices of their band council Monday as one-third of the councillors resigned.Some of the natives called for the resignation of Mike Mitchell, chief of the St.Regis band, after learning he had agreed to a $650,000 out-of-court settlement with two U.S.aluminum companies for band losses suffered by fluoride emissions.At a private meeting two weeks ago, eight of the council’s 12 members signed an agreement with Reynolds Metals Co.and the Aluminum Co of America to end their 25-year dispute over fluoride pollution.Transport industry to change OTTAWA (CP) — The country’s main transportation laws will be redrafted to meet the challenge of deregulation which is bringing sweeping change to the trucking, railway and airline business in North America, Transport Minister Don Mazankowski says.The minister said in an interview the new laws will also serve as beacons to guide development and expansion in the transportation system, improvements that are expected to cost $90 billion in this country during the next 15 years.Prisoner fasts for transfer OTTAWA (CP) — Convicted bomber Douglas Stewart — now in the 24th day of a hunger strike — must end his fast before authorities consider his demand for a transfer from the maximum-security Archambault penitentiary near Montreal, a federal Correctional Services spokesman said Monday.Jacques Belanger said Stewart is being held in the prison infirmary, where a doctor is monitoring his condition.Stewart, 27, serving a six-year prison term for blowing up a hydroelectric substation on Vancouver Island in 1982, wants to serve his time in a British Columbia institution.CDIC president to be fired OTTAWA (CP) — Industry Minister Sinclair Stevens has planned a news conference for today where he is likely to announce the firing of Joel Bell, president of the Canada Development Investment Corp The Ottawa Citizen, quoting unidentified senior government sources, said Monday that Stevens told Bell last Wednesday of the government’s intention.A spokesman for Stevens refused to comment on the report, but suggested the news conference could be connected to the government corporation.The CDIC also refused comment from its Toronto headquarters.Baby Fae in stable condition LOMA LINDA, Calif.(AP) — Baby Fae, her blood pumped by a baboon’s heart, remained in critical but stable condition for a fourth day Monday as hospital officials drew criticism for not trying to find a human donor before performing the transplant.The surgeons acknowledged they did not know the heart of a two-month-old human was available the day of the operation.But a spokesman at Loma Linda University Medical Centre said it would have made no difference because that heart “wouldn’t fit” into the ailing infant, who was 14 days old and hours from death when she received the baboon heart Friday.Nuclear 4 phobia to be studied WASHINGTON (AP) — The Energy Department has hired a psychiatrist for $85,000 to find out if widespread opposition to nuclear power plants amounts to a phobia — a mental problem that might be dispelled.The Energy Department’s contract with Dr.Robert DuPont, president of the Phobia Society of America, calls for “a true scientific study done by a highly reputable researcher,” department spokesman Jim Merna said Monday.The Rockville, Md., psychiatrist argued in a New York Daily News article last year that the fear of atomic power "is widespread, irrational and aggressively exploited by the political opposition to

miners’ union president) Arthur Scargill to wreak havoc." Inspector Malcolm Biggin, based in Sutton Coldfield.central England, wrote his views in the West Midlands branch of the Christian Police Association newsletter He said he and other Christian policemen had seen coalminers, who have been on strike for eight months, acting like “demons possessed” on picket lines.In the last year, he said, God had raised up U.S.evangelist Billy Graham to try to save Britain, and Satan had raised up Scargill.Two children electrocuted FORT WORTH, Tex.(AP) — A six-year-old boy and his five-year-old sister were killed when a hair dryer fell into a bathtub and electrocuted them, authorities say today.Poland faces renewed protests WARSAW (Reuter) — Poland faced renewed protest today as the search continued for the body of Rev.Jerzy Popieluszko, an anti-Communist priest feared dead after his abduction 12 days ago.Police and army troops appeared in force Monday in the southwestern industrial city of Wroclaw, where the banned Solidarity labor movement is still strong, but several hundred demonstrators left the city peacefully.Police in Wroclaw said there was no demonstration, and a spokesman for the official news agency Interpress said civil defence exercises held in the city might have led to confusion.Thatcher excuses defector’s story LONDON (AP)—Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher says there will be no formal inquiry in the case of Soviet defector Oleg Bitov, who surfaced in Moscow claiming he was kidnapped and tortured by British intelligence.Thatcher said Monday the government believes the journalist made the allegations “to restore his credit with Soviet authorities.” Bitov, 52, was foreign cultural editor of the Soviet weekly Literary Gazette when, British officials said, he defected while covering the Venice Film Festival in August 1983.He later went to Britain and wrote articles criticizing life in the Soviet Union.Man tortured in prison camp BEIRUT (Reuter) — A Lebanese civilian recently released from the Israeli prison camp of Ansar in occupied southern Lebanon said Monday his captors beat him on his hands, feet and genitals.Ahmed Salem, 22, told reporters he spent five months in detention accused of anti-Israeli activities before being released on Oct.15.After his arrest on May 19, Salem said he was taken to a detention centre at Mar Elias, east of Sidon, remaining handcuffed for six hours during 12 interrogation sessions.He said Israeli interrogators beat his hands and feet with sticks and “they concentrated on the sexual organs in a manner difficult to describe.” The Israelis also swore and spat at prisoners, he said.UN reports on to mass starvation GENEVA (CP) — More than 35 million people living in parts of drought-ravaged Africa are desperately hungry, and their plight is the worst human disaster in the recent history of the continent, a United Nations report released in Switzerland said Monday.Around the world, appeals and promises of aid were made for Ethiopia where an estimated six million to seven million people are in danger of starving.The International Red Cross warned “similar horror pictures” are possible in other parts of Africa.13 killed in collision VALLADOLID (AP) — A military truck, a passenger bus, a light truck and two cars collided in heavy fog Monday, killing 13 people and injuring 33, the Spanish Civil Guard said.Killed in the crash were five soldiers and eight civilians, the guard said.Five of the victims were relatives of the new Roman Catholic bishop of the Osma-Soria diocese, Jose Dieguez Reboredo.They had been returning home after Sunday’s ceremonies installing the new bishop.) A, 4 Thp RECORD—Tuesday, October 30.19H4—3 The Townships —__g»! mam Linguistic Affairs Minister Godin fights back after brain surgery MONTREAL (CP) — After doctors removed an abscess from his brain last spring, Gérald Godin — a popular Quebec cabinet minister — lost his speech and memory and even contemplated taking his own life.Now the minister of linguistic affairs says he has his health back and is regaining his self-confidence after a five-month nightmare that began one morning in May.Godin was cutting wood with a chain saw at his country home near North Hatley when a splinter of wood shot up and gashed his eye.Doctors took X-rays and discovered he had a large abscess on the left side of his brain.They operated to remove it and he spent 20 days in hospital but the recovery was not smooth.At the age of 45, Godin found he had lost his ability to speak and the greater part of his memory.The event plunged him into depression."When you have an operation like that, you go very deep into yourself,” Godin, a poet and former journalist, recalled in an interview."You start doubting yourself and being convinced you’re a dead man, that vour life is over, that your stami na is erased forever.” He came to Sherbrooke for therapy They gave him arithmatic lessons and taught him how to speak again.They had him place "big nails in big holes, little nails in little holes.” He couldn’t do it.LOSES MEMORY “I cried like a child.It’s so terrible to lose your memory, lose a pen, forget a name, move around so slowly.“One night I was visiting some friends up north.I couldn't speak I was so humiliated.When I came back to Montreal I discovered I had forgotten my pills and my coat." Fréchette downplays independence By Peter Scowen SHERBROOKE — If the Parti Québécois decides to run its next election campaign on an independence platform, Labor Minister Raynald Fré- Raynald Fréchette.Voted against resolution.m chette says he may resign from politics.“If the situation stays the same,” he said Monday, “I’ll have to take a serious look at my future.” But, he added, “it doesn’t mean I'm anti-sovereignty.” Fréchette, MNA for Sherbrooke, was in the city to give a speech to the Mouvement pour 1'enseignement privé.Last week Premier René Lévesque reopened the debate within the Parti Québécois on whether the party should stick to its separatist guns in the next election, or run on a more politically pragmatic platform of better relations with Ottawa.VOTED AGAINST At a party convention last June, members voted overwhelmingly in favor of a resolution which said a vote for the PQ is a vote for independence.“I voted against that resolution,” Fréchette said.“I’m still against it.” The labor minister called the referendum in 1980 a “clear result” that said ‘no’ to even negotiating sovereignty-association with the federal government.“You can’t come back every five years with the same question about a people’s fate.” Fréchette said he fears that if the next election is run on an independence platform, a defeat would mean the “Quebec question would be over.” There would be no negotiations to bring the province into the newly-repatriated Constitution of 1982, he claimed.‘STEP BACKWARDS’ “An election on only that will be a step backwards,” said Fréchette.“All the Quebec people will go backwards, not just politicians.It wouldn’t be the first election I’ve lost.” Frechette, Sherbrooke’s MNA since 1981, said his future as a PQ member would be in doubt if the situation didn’t change.He claims not to be against Quebec independece, however.“We all have the same goals, it’s only the method we are debating,” he explained.“It doesn’t mean I’m anti-sovereignty.” The PQ will likely call a special meeting in December to discuss the question.For the moment, Fréchette said he is letting people know his opinion, working alongside Premier Lévesque and Justice Minister Pierre-Marc Johnson, who also favor better federal relations.“It’s time to debate now,” said Fréchette.“We have to make a decision by December.” His depression deepened and he decided to end it all “I was going to shoot myself,” Godin said.But the technical problems of taking his life were enormous."For example, where do I do it?” He decided he would go to North Hatley where he shares a home with long-time companion Pauline Julien, walk into the woods on the northeast end of Lake Massawippi and shoot himself with his 303 rifle.“Yes, like Hemingway." Ernest Hemingway, the American novelist, shot himself in mouth in 1961.At the last moment, he reconsidered.“I said to myself, No, life is so short, and death is so long.’” Godin’s recovery since has been slow but constant.Last month, he asked Premier René Lévesque to relieve him of his duties as minister of cultural commu nities and immigration.Godin, viewed as a political moderate, kept his job as minister in charge of the non educational aspects of Quebec's language law.Bill 101.He was given a new title — minister of linguistic affairs.Godin, arrested under the War Measures Act during the 1970 October Crisis, has been a mainstay of the Parti Québécois government since he was elected during its sweep to power in 1976.He says his illness has given him an intense compassion for the handicapped, underprivileged and dying This compassion, Godin hopes, is the greatest gift he'll be able to offer Quebec during the rest of his life.Godin, a native of Trois Rivières, often refers to himself as a "part-time Townshipper" and “M le Ministre des Cantons de l'Est".He spends most of his time at North Hatley when the National Assembly is not in session.Gerald Godin.Considered North

trial Tuesday, November 19.but the proceedings may not take place in Sherbrooke, it was learned Monday A request to have the Pouliot brothers' trials moved to Montreal was made by Mario Pouliot’s lawyer Ronald Schachter to Superior court Judge Paul M.Gervais, who set the Nov.19 date.Schachter told reporters during a recess that he fears that his client may not get a fair trial given the hostility the family has faced since the murders on June 26.Crown Prosecutor Thomas Walsh said he would oppose any move for a change in venue.A special hearing will be held November 6 to determine if such a trans fer is needed.Both Pouliots, aged 23 and 20 res pectively, face four counts each of first degree murder, kidnapping, forcible detention and use of a firearm in the commission of a crime.Both accused have changed la wyers.Ronald now has Jacques Be langer as his lawyer Meanwhile, Serge Pouliot, another brother facing similar charges had his trial postposed to the winter term because he is appealing the preliminary-hearing ruling which sent him to tirai on the first degree murder charges.Serge Pouliot’s lawyer, Marc Mont-plaisir, said he is appealing the ruling on the grounds of insufficient evidence on the first degree murder charges.A tentative date of January 7 has been set to fix a trial date.Both Jean Luc Pouliot.50, the father of the Pouliot brothers, and André Maheu, 19 have had their trial dates also postponed to January 7.They face four counts each of complicity to murder after the fact, kidnapping, forcible detention illlegal use of a firearm and three counts each of assault causing bodily harm Jean Luc Pouliot s lawyer.Philippe Schneider, said both men had their trials postponed pending the outcome of Ronald and Mario Pouliot s trial “Since my client is charged with complicity to murder, it must be determined if there was murder If Ronald and Mario are innocent of murder, then there is no complicity and that charge will have to be dismis sed," he said.Schneider also requested a special bail hearing for Jean Luc Pouliot for November 6.along with his sons and their friend Maheu.the father has been denied bail since his arrest June

attack on Mayor Jean-Paul Pelletier’s attitude concerning the city’s proposed purchase of a Frontenac Street building belonging to Saad Gabr, at Monday night’s regular meeting of city council.After

Tanguay and Robert Dandurand lined up against the mayor for statements which appeared in La Tribune Monday.Mayor Pelletier said the councillors seemed to have reversed their positions on the controversial purchase between the time he got council approval to negotiate with the enigmatic ex-North Hatley developer and the time approval of a purchase offer came to a vote.The four dissidents were just beginning to get their verbal whacks in when darkness interrupted.An official of Hydro-Sherbrooke, the city-owned electric utility, said later the failure was a routine parts breakdown and could not be attributed to any particular cause.$115,000 FOR PROULX In other council business completed before the lights went out, the city’s legal department was authorized to pay Montreal lawyer Michel Proulx up to $115,000 for his part in the trial of policemen André Castonguay and Roger Dion.Proulx represented the city and police department as well as the two detective-sergeants, who were recently aquitted of any criminal intention in the Dec.23 death of Québec City carpet-layer Serge Beaudoin during a bungled police raid.For his work up to Oct.16 Proulx will receive a total of

sought from companies geographically closer to assembly factories and suppliers will have to guarantee quality.All of those moves mean a streamlining in the automotive industry.“The automotive industry is changing and what has to be done is for us to look ahead and see how we are going to fit into it.” Markey said his company has been looking for a prospective partner for “two or three years now” and that the merger with Woodbridge “is extremely pleasing.” “We’re strong in certain areas and they are strong in certain ones,” Markey explained.“What we can now do is walk into a the

It was, as Quebec Labor Minister Raynald Fréchette called it, a “night of sabotage.” Others called it “romantic”.Whatever it was, Fréchette gave a 20-minute speech in the dark Monday night during Sherbrooke’s temporary blackout that got him into more trouble than he cared for The city’s PQ member of the National Assembly was defending the government’s policy on private schools to the Eastern Townships branch of the Mouvement pour 1'enseignment privé (MEP — Private School Survival Movement).The MEP officially started last November in Montreal as a reaction to government cutbacks in private education.Teachers and adminstrators in those instituitons felt the cuts would reduce the quality of a service for which there is alarge demand, and even threatened to wipe it out 18 PRIVATE SCHOOLS The Movement represents 18 private schools in the Townships, incu-ding two English-language institutions — Bishop's College School in Lennoxville and Stanstead College in Stanstead.Neither had representatives at Monday's meeting.Fréchette defended the government’s moratorium on grants for new private schools, and the lack of a policy promoting the ones that exist.He said he didn't think private schoo ling had suffered from budget cutbacks.“The risk of a drop in quality in education depends on the non dynamism of the service,” he said.“You should remember that the whole education system is in question at the moment their economic performance, demographic changes, new requirements in the working world the desire for decentralization.” Cuts don't mean the government doesn't believe in private education, Fréchette told the 80 MEP members attending their second annual meeting at College Mont Notre Dame.“You don't have to be a member of your movement to believe in the same things you do.” FINANCING REFUSED The government has refused to fi nance private schools to any great de gree since 1977 Private schools can't be supported at the expense of the pu blic system.Education Minister Yves Bérubé said to the parliamentary committee last April.It the public school system were going well then there would be more money for private schools, Bérubé explained, adding that the fewer gover-ment grants they receive, the more autonomous they will be.Bérubé did say that private schools are valuable because they provide competition for the public system and keep it on its toes.He also said the private institutions “guarantee a search for excellence".Fréchette quoted the education minster on all these points in his speech — all are which are positions the MEP opposes.The labor minister came under a lot of fire for his stand, and when police-radio broadcasts started coming in over the public ad dress system he was talking into, he made his joke about a “night of sabo tage." ROMANTIC’ TIMING One MEP member called the blackout “romantic” in reply MEP members were slightly hostile with the questions they put to Fréchette, calling the private school system a “dead end" and accusing the government of having an “idealized conception" of education.“Our kids are getting older," said one man who demanded more money for private schools Marc Lacroix, secretary-general of the MEP.said the government should take into account the heavy demand for spaces in private schools."There are twice as many demands as there are places,” he said “And you tell me they are in danger.” Fréchette replied.In the end Fréchette, who went to a private school in Sherbrooke and whose four children spent time in the system as well, wouldn't give in "Public schools should exist and progress and have the means to progress,” he said."And perhaps they should be supported by the state, as long as it has the money in its coffers " ACCESS THE GOAL Lacroix said after Fréchette left that the goal of the MEP is to make private schools more accessible and defend their interests to the government.They need the grants if they are to be affordable to everyone.The PQ once considered getting rid of private schools on the grounds they aren't available to all classes of people, Lacroix said The government has since changed that poliev, but the lack of financing may lead to the same thing, he claimed.Elaine llillier, who was re-elected as the Eastern Townships representative to the MEP administrative coun cil in Montreal, said private schools are becoming less and less religious — another reason they need government aid “When the sisters go then that’s when we are going to need help," she said Without nuns who work for free, the schools will have to hire tea chers." "That is the hole we are getting in to," said Hillier.Lacroix said MEP membership is growing, with 35,(XX) paid ;p, compa red to 25,000 last year The movement should come out with a document ou tlining its position next spring, he added Marc iMcroix.Private schools need grants.I i I'he Voice of the Eastern Townships since 1897 Editorial 1 The KK('OIU)— Tuesday, Oetob»*r .10, I9SI Far more wisdom One of Quebec’s most influential physicians has issued what amounts to an open call for civil disobedience as a legitimate form of resisting unfair’ legislation We should all pay careful heed Testifying at the conspiracy trial of Montreal abortionist Henry Morgentaler and two other physicians in a Toronto court.Dr Augustin Hoy, president of the Professional Corporation of Quebec Physicians, told the court that the breaking of an unfair law is often the best way to get legislators to change it and the sad part is he may very well be right.( Canadians elect their legislators to represent them in parliaments where rules that will govern them are designed, debated and written into law It is a system whereby a people can generally assume that its wishes will be reflected and rules can be designed that adequately represent the consensus of the nation In most cases, the system works.Our modern society, however, with its tolerance of diverse beliefs and moral values, has created situations that are badly coped with by our traditional system.In the last decades millions of normally law-abiding citizens have blatantly chosen to disobey unpopular — and usually unenforceable laws to the great embarrassment of those same politicians.Each year thousands of Canadian women obtain technically illegal abortions while millions daily flaunt the laws controlling illegal drugs, and police and prosecuting attorneys are virtually helpl ess It is an untenable situation.The debate over women’s right to abortion on demand has raged in this country for much of the last two decades as the emerging women’s movement, freer moral attitudes and, conversely, the resurgence of religious fervour have combined to bring the issue to the boiling point.It's a situation that for society’s sake must somehow be resolved.For those who believe that a human embryo has all the rights insisted upon by other human beings, the concept of abortion on demand boils down to nothing less than legally sanctioned murder For those in the other camp, to whom a woman’s fundamental right to control over her own body is paramount, forcing an individual to sustain an unwanted and psychologically damaging pregnancy constitutes an abridgement of the basic tenets of human rights that form the foundation of a free and individually-oriented society.These arguments are both valid and mutually exclusive.The legal history of Dr.Morgentaler is truly remarkable and is the reason why Quebec women enjoy a far freer access to abortion than their sisters in any other province.Because two consecutive juries refused to convict him, the Quebec legal machinery wisely chose to stop wasting the taxpayers’ money in fruitless attempts to stop operations of his Montreal clinic It was a classic example of public opinion changing the face of law.It has tempered Dr Roy's outlook The issue of abortion is one of such personal and emotional significance that it is unlikely that a real consensus will ever emerge And no matter what the courts in Ontario, and later Manitoba, decide to do with Dr.Morgentaler, women will continue to undergo thousands of pregnancy terminations every year, whether legally sanctioned or not.The goal of the politician in this debate, therefore, must not be to try to guage the ‘general’ public mood.It cannot be done in this case.I legislators must try, rather, to come up with a solution that will clarify the situation while causing the least amount of damage to society as a whole.They will need far more wisdom than we are accustomed to in order to succeed.Dr Hoy may very well be right — unfortunately for us all.This method of legislative change —through massive civil diobedience — is extremely painful for both individuals and society, and it can tear a nation apart.Patience and understanding will be the most needed ingredients if this is to be avoided.MICHAEL McDEVITT Casgrain recalls rights fight: The doctor wouldn’t operate VANCOUVER (CP)— For women, equality is a matter of "more," says the judge who fought to give mar ried women in Quebec legal status We have to change public attitudes by being more, said Judge Claire Kirkland Casgrain in an interview "More qualified, academically.Harder working You have to make a lot of sacrifices.Nothing is free You have to work for it.A good PR job done by women helped by progressive men could do a great deal.We’re notas vocal as we could be To win a debate you have to be subtle, use finesse " Kirkland Casgrain, in Vancouver recently to address the University Women’s Club, said success for women is not easy when competition is as tough as it is "Prejudices are much more subtle now.There’s more camouflage but it still exists.A Liberal member of Quebec’s National Assembly at the time, Kirkland Casgrain was the sponsor of Bill 16, which established full legal rights for married women in Quebec She spent 12years in politics.Forthepast 10, she has been a judge.She says it is still a job reaching women, to tell them atmut their rights If it doesn't affect them at the time the law is chan ged, they may not pay attention,” says Kirkland-Casgrain."Then you have to be able to reach them 10 years later when it docs affect them ” Kirkland Casgrain says that before the amendments to the civil law, women were “incapable before the law.A wife could not give a legal signature ; her husband had to countersign a deed of sale.She could not authorize an operation on a sick child if her husband was travelling on business The doctor wouldn't operate " Hatfield case may have a Rights Charter angle By Chris Morris FREDERICTON (CP) — The drug investigation involving Premier Richard Hatfield has brought to light new problems in prosecuting narcotics cases since introduction of the Charter of Rights.Two Fredericton lawyers said last week that discovery of marijuana in an unatten ded suitcase in a baggage-handling area of an airport — circumstances similar to those in the Hatfield case — would be difficult to prosecute and easy to defend.The reverse onus clause of the Narcotics Control Act, under which a person found in possession had to prove he or she had no knowledge of possession, may no longer be in effect.Hazen Calabrese, a Fredericton lawyer and former federal prosecutor for RCMP drug cases, said precedents have been set in which reverse onus has been found in violation of the Charter of Rights — specifically, a person’s right to be considered innocent until proven guilty.Calabrese said that if charges are laid against Hatfield, the case will probably be considered one of “constructive possession." The Crown would be forced to prove, through circumstantial evidence, a prima facie (at-first-glance) case that the accused was in possession of a narcotic.Then, if there were no evidence to disprove that prima facie case, the accused would be deemed to be in possession.Calabrese said that to prove possession, a number of circumstantial factors would have to support the prosecution's case.For instance, it would look incriminating if narcotics were found in a shaving kit inside a zippered part of the luggage along with other personal belongings.He said all kinds of things would have to be taken into consideration: who packed the bag, how accessible was it to other people, how long was it unattended and, of course, whether there was any physical evidence such as fingerprints.A Fredericton radio station, CFNB, has quoted an anonymous, highly placed official saying fingerprints in the Hatfield case couldn’t be matched because prints found on the bag of marijuana were smudged.RCMF Supt.Georges Vermette, acting commander of the Fredericton J Division, said Thursday the investigation is continuing and there has been no decision on charges.It has been four weeks since a bag containing 26.5 grams of marijuana, enough to roll about 40 cigarettes, was found in an outside pocket of Hatfield’s suitcase during a routine search of luggage about to be boarded onto the Queen’s plane during her recent visit.Hatfield says the marijuana wasn’t his and he has no idea how it got into his bag.Gary Miller, a criminal lawyer in Fredericton, said if he were handed a case in which marijuana had been found in an unattended suitcase and the accused’s fingerprints weren’t on the bag containing the drug he would “defend it to the hilt.“The Crown must prove possession and there is no onus on the person to prove they were not in possession.” The complexities of checking out a situation such as the one involving Hatfield may be one reason the federal Justice De- partment waited so long before deciding whether to lay charges.The RCMP and the Crown have been criticized for taking so long to make up their minds about the Hatfield case, but Calabrese said he isn’t surprised by the long wait.“This is a high-profile case involving a well-known person and whenever the RCMP have anything of a sensitive nature they like to do a thorough investigation,” said Calabrese.“Certainly when you have this type of case, because it’s circumstantial and there’s not 100 per cent surety you would be able to prove possession, that may make some prosecutors waver.” Grass okayed for Manitoba cancer victim WINNIPEG (CP) — A cancer victim who admitted growing four two-metre high marijuana plants in his bam managed to beat a criminal charge of narcotics possession because of his illness.Lawrence Anonychuk, an advertising salesman, was granted an absolute discharge recently by Judge Theodore Lis-mer, who said he was impressed with evidence presented by the defence.Lismer termed the discharge “an unusual disposition considering the amount of marijuana involved,” but said he recognized Anonychuk’s extraordinary situation.Anonychuk was the subject of a series of newspaper articles three years ago that described what it was like to live after being told he had cancer and had possibly only 18 months to live.Anonychuk, 41, had cancer of the lymph system at the time.The disease is now in remission.Defence lawyer George Ulyott presented clippings of the articles from the Win- nipeg Free Press to the court as evidence, as well as a letter from Anonychuk’s doctor, Pat Harris.“I remember well the article when it appeared,” the judge said.The stories described the initial seriousness of his condition.Under painful chemotherapy treatment, Anonychuk’s hair thinned, his energy waned and he started having stomach pains.COPES WITH DOPE The articles related how Anonychuk, who’s also a horse racer and dog trainer, coped with the disease through positive thinking, vitamins and marijuana.Dr.Harris wrote in a letter that Anonychuk was using marijuana without her advice or permission.“At that time his disease was sufficiently severe to be life-threatening,” Harris wrote.“He was using marijuana as an antiemetic (to alleviate nausea).” Harris added that “it certainly has been shown since that time that marijuana and marijuana derivatives have an antiemetic effect in patients on., chemotherapy.” Ulyott said that although Anonychuk isn’t taking chemotherapy now, he’s reluctant to give up using something that he felt helped him get better.“He feels it relieves tension which leads to cancer buildup,” said Ulyott.Anonychuk said his cancer has remained in remission but his glands begin to swell ‘‘ when I abuse my body—smoke too much, drink too much.” Anonychuk was charged after a police raid on his home in June.Meanwhile, the issue of narcotics use to alleviate pain for cancer-stricken and terminally ill patients also came up in the Ontario legislature last week.Members voted 48-0 in favor of a resolution urging the federal government to legalize the therapeutic use of heroin for such patients so they can have access to every possible painkiller.mm.Letter Fleas Editor: A TINY BIT OF ASTRONOMY Our sun is really a small star.To compare its size to earth would be like comparing a baseball to the head of a pin,

line to divide the Northwest Territories has become hotter with the release of two reports favoring a north-south border.The reports, done for the group set up to establish the proposed western territory, show that the boundary favored by the rival group of eastern Arctic political leaders and Inuit leaders would leave the west poor and would create transportation and wildlife management problems.That boundary would claim nearly all the region’s oil and natural gas for the east.It would include the Beaufort Sea and the High Arctic fields.Ninety-four per cent of the oil and 93 per cent of natural gas potential and known reserves would fall in the eastern territory, says the report, written by a Vancouver research firm The eastern group, the Nunavut Constitutional Forum, favors a boundary that follows the treeline, which more or less cuts diagonally southeast across the territories.This boundary would put about 68 per cent of the land mass of the current Northwest Territories into the new eastern territory.The west would have nearly all known land-based mineral deposits with either the treeline or north-south boundary.However, the Western Constitutional Forum maintains the western territory cannot survive economically without the Beaufort Sea oilfields.John Amagoalik, president of the Inuit Tapirisat of Canada and secretary-treasurer of the Nunavut forum, dismisses the notion and says the treeline is the only fair boundary.MOST IN VALLEY’ “Most of the proven resources of the Northwest Territories are in the Mackenzie Valley,” says Amagoalik."As for the High Arctic, well, they may never be able to get anything out of there.’ ’ Bob MacQuarrie, vice-chairman of the Western Constitutional Forum, admits the High Arctic oil fields in the Sverdrup Basin near the North Magnetic Pole will be slower and more difficult to develop.But he argues slow development might not hinder the east in the long run.“Most of the money coming out of Norman Wells (in the Mackenzie Valley) goes to the federal government,” says MacQuarrie.He suggests that if the territories become provinces, revenue-sharing agreements with the federal government would render much heftier benefits for the east than if the fields were developed now.Amagoalik accuses the western forum of trying to pressure Nunavut into backing down from the treeline boundary.“MacQuarrie and the others are pushing this north-south boundary the way a union negotiator fights for a dollar when he’s hoping for 50 cents.The treeline is the only fair boundary.I don’t intend to waver.” The Western Constitutional Forum has gone on record as preferring a north-south line but has not yet chosen a specific boundary, The reports heavily favor a line that splits the N.W.T.roughly in half along a line running north from the area of the Manitoba-Saskatchewan border.However, MacQuarrie stresses the reports’ boundary is not necessarily the one for which the west will hold out.“The value of the reports is that they give us factual information to base our talks on.When they’re saying one thing and we re saying the contrary, it gives us some substance to chew on.” INVOLVES RACE Although both sides have agreed division of the territories should be based on political rather than ethnic lines, race contributes to the emotion surrounding the boundary debate.The east is steadfast upon the treeline because it wants to keep the Inuit living in six western Arctic coastal communities as part of Nunavut, an Inuit word meaning homeland.The western forum also wants the 2,000 Inuvialuit, as the Inuit of the Western Arctic are known, to ensure a native majority in the west, where there are nearly as many whites as Dene and Metis.In 1984, the majority of the Northwest Territories’ 45,000 residents voted in favor of dividing the N.W.T.into two territories.The federal government agreed to division under certain conditions, including the establishment of a boundary that satisfied both sides.The two constitutional forums are to meet in Ottawa this week to continue negotiations on the boundary.Latest Labrador claim: Bordering the ridiculous?MONTREAL (CP) — The provincial Union Nationale party and two nationalist groups have endorsed a new court bid to claim Labrador as Quebec territory.Jean-Marc Belliveau.one of the lawyers retained to wage the court fight and leader of the UN which has no seats in the Quebec National Assembly, said last week he hopes to file his case for Quebec ownership of territory now under Newfoundland's jurisdiction in the coming weeks Aside from the political gains, the backers of the court battle could also win its organizers millions of dollars in royalties from firms developing natural resources in Labrador.Promoters quietly started a special fund-raising campaign 10 months ago with funds going into a credit union account called the Fonds commun Québec-labrador I9H4 The fund is administered by La Compagnie de la Baie Hamilton Inlet Inc.(Ham let), owned by Montreal land promoter Bernard Claude St-Jacques.The account was opened after the Quebec Securities Commission investigated and ruled that no sale of shares was involved and that investments by Quebecers amounted to “donations.” St-Jacques says his company’s bid is based on the premise that the ownership of Labrador rests on an unsound and basically fragile legal opinion rendered in 1927 by the British Privy Council which traced the geographic border.LAW WEAK’ Similarly weak in law, says St-Jacques, is the Act of the Canadian Parliament which confirmed Newfoundland’s ownership of Labrador when the province came into Confederation in 1949.In the court battle which must be brought to the Supreme Court of Canada, Hamlet will argue that the 1949 act should be declared null and void because it ille- gally granted ownership of Labrador to Newfoundland.St-Jacques says he sees the acquiring of exploration rights for the estimated $100-billion worth of natural resources in Labrador as an integral part of the plan if Hamlet wins the case for Quebec.Officials of the Mouvement nationale des Québécois and the nationalist Société St-Jean Baptiste support the position that Labrador belongs to Quebec and Hamlet's case.BeUiveau says that although the Union Nationale supports the bid, his involvement is strictly “personal and professional.” TRIED BEFORE St-Jacques was behind a similar undertaking by La Société de développement Québec-Labrador-Rigolet Inc.(Labec) three years ago, but the project failed to get off the ground.Within months of the scheme’s announ- cement in February 1981, Labec was taken over by Robert Harrison, the Montreal accountant whose preliminary hearing on fraud charges has been adjourned until Nov.14.Harrison has no ties with the new venture.When St-Jacques applied to the Quebec Energy and Resources Department for exploration permits to 35,218 square kilometres of Labrador on behalf of Labec in 1981, he was told to enclose a cheque in the amount of $2.1 million.St-Jacques said his company will now agree to pay a fee and will even make out a cheque conditional on Quebec cashing it once the province has free and clear title to the land.” The fee would be a pittance, says St-Jacques, compared with the $100 million a year Hamlet would receive in royalties from companies operating in the area if it held the exploration rights / ( i The RK('(>KI>—Tuesday, October 30, I9M—5 Farm and business — - foE-l mam Richmond GM dealership leaves ‘old store’ to keep up with times By Nick Fonda RICHMOND — Members of the Richmond business community, representatives from General Motors Corporation, and municipal and provincial officials gathered at 265 Main St.this month to celebrate the opening of Dyson & Armstrong’s new premises.The building, which is only a few years old and which formerly belonged to Paul Desmarais, promises much, both for Dyson & Armstrong and for the town of Richmond “We had to move,” explains Bill Stevens, president of the Richmond car dealership.“I began planning this move a year and a half ago.The legal work on the purchase was begun seve- ral months ago and our sales department has been in the building for a month.There is still work to be done — installing gas pumps, paving the lot — but we’ve already noticed a difference, “This is a new building,” he continues, “with modern facilities and one of the largest showrooms in the Eastern Townships.These things matter in the car business.” Barry Evans, a young mechanic who joined the firm only a few months before the move, raves about the new garage.“It’s a joy to work here,” he says.“We’ve got some very sophisticated new equipment but the biggest different is that it’s so clean.Here if I drop a wrench I bend over and pick it up; at the old place I’d pick up an ounce of grime before I could pick up the wrench.” ¦SHOWROOM NEW’ The new premises have marked a similar improvement for Walter Ste vens, Herb Crook, Doug Morey, and Mark Clowry of the sales department “When a person buys a new car,” Mark Clowry points out, “he wants it to look new, showroom new.At the other place we couldn’t keep more than one or two cars in the showroom.Here we can keep over 20.The cars stay clean and free of dust and sell better than on the open air lot where we had to keep most of our cars before.” Bill Stevens recalls an incident that proves the point.“One of our salesmen was showing a customer a caron our open lot.The client came to look at the car several times, but always felt that the car wasn’t quite right.A few weeks after we opened the showroom here the same client saw the same car and bought it the same evening." WalterStevens, Vice-President and Treasurer of the firm, adds, “traditionally August is a poor month for car sales.People are on holiday, parents are getting their kids ready for school, it’s the end of the manufacturer’s model year.Our sales haven't been high this month but we've had as good a month for sales as any August in the company's history.” STARTED IN 1920 Dyson & Armstrong is one of Rich-mond’s oldest businesses, dating back to 1920 when Archie Dyson, an accountant with the Molson Bank and Charlie Armstrong, a mechanic for- med a partnership and started opera ting a Ford franchise.In 1931, after four years of selling both Ford and General Motors cars, Dyson & Arms trong became strictly a G M dealership and has remained that way ever since.The firm was incorporated in 1947 and several properties, some on Main Street, others on Craig Road, were acquired.In the early 1950's Lloyd Fuller and Wilton Pope took over active operation of the firm Bill and Walter Stevens became sharehol ders and managers in 1969.“If we had not moved," Bill Stevens explains, “we would have gone under within five years Like it or not we live in a changing world and people want change.In our business the old store' doesn’t work any more.“1 feel confident that this move is going to help our firm in at least two ways.I'm quite sure we will increase our business by 25 per cent within a year, and more important, I think these new premises will provide a better environment for our employees." The new garage is a large investment for Dyson & Armstrong and it marks the faith Bill Stevens has that Richmond is on the upswing ‘T've often wondered why Richmond hasn’t blossomed.The town has a geographically central location, a number of empty factories, and a big asset in its schools, both English and French.The downtown is in the process of changing and the new Main Street will look quite different.I’ve never had a negative feeling about Richmond and 1 certainly don't have one now." Necessity turning homes into business operations CALGARY (CP) — It’s been a big jump from designing skyscrapers to making copper plaques at his kitchen table, but for Polish-born Andrew Subda the choices were clear.“I could stand in line with 200 people to get a job cleaning office buildings,” explained Subda, 43, who lost his architect’s job with a Calgary firm when a major project was shelved.“Or I could work for myself.” Subda is part of a growing population of Canadians who earn money at home as a creative alternative to unemployment.Few are big-income earners — Revenue Canada says they gross a maximum of $10,000 to $15,000 a year and net less than $3,000 to $4,000.John Bullock, president of the Canadian Federation of Independent Business, said at least 200,000 Canadians work out of their homes and report their earnings.He guessed that another 100,000 don’t inform the tax people of their activities.“The recession has opened up a whole new field of entrepreneur-ship,” said Mickey Meraw, Calgary director of the Alberta government’s small business assistance branch.“It’s the entrepreneurship of necessity.” From that necessity also comes innovation.Home business people grow bean sprouts, sell cuckoo clocks, build miniature doll houses and manufacture hot tubs.Some work as taxidermists, hairdressers, dressmakers, potters, accountants, real estate agents, engineering consultants and computer experts.Tom Wiseman, 31, wasn’t able to find work that used his writing and layout skills.His wife Sherry’s earnings as a typesetter weren’t enough, so he started up a typing, writing and editing service called Ghost Writers, from which he earns as much as $100 for four hours’ work.The home business allows Wiseman to take care of his five children — a set of four-year-old twins and a set of two-year-old triplets — and save money which would have otherwise gone to a babysitter.“Sometimes I feel like I’m in jail,” Wiseman said mournfully, adding that he dreams of the day he can have an away-from-home office job “like normal people.” However, not all home businesses are spawned from economic necessity.John Maciejowski, 43, is a former butcher who runs a business tracking down stray shopping carts and repairing them in his garage.For years Maciejowski worked at a grocery store and tracked down the carts in his spare time.Eventually, he found the money from his enterprise was better than his butcher’s wages.He now has contracts with 50 Calgary grocery stores, and although he refused to reveal dollar figures, said business is lucrative.Maciejowski said there’s one major quality needed for someone wanting to run a home business.“Self-motivation,” he said.“You can’t put up a ‘Gone Fishing’ sign if it’s a nice day out.“It can be snowing and I’ll be out picking carts and people will say; ‘You’re crazy, what are you doing?’ I say : ‘Hey, man, rain or shine, you gotta go.’’’_____________________ Cinderalla oil grain being promoted in the East The Cinderella crop that swept western agricul ture off its feet in the 1970s is just beginning to step out in the East.Canola, which in rags-to-riches style has grown to become one of the Prairies’ most important crops, is being tried out by farmers in Nova Scotia and Ontario.The Nova Scotia Department of Agriculture is keenly interested in promoting the crop, which produces a vegetable oil widely used for cooking or in making margarine.“It grows well in the cool, moist summer conditions which are common throughout most of the province and is less sensitive to acid soils than some traditional grain crops,” says the department.Officials hope canola — the industry name for edible Canadian varieties of rapeseed — could be used in a crop rotation with cereal grains such as wheat and barley.FARMERS TRY CROP Nova Scotia farmers have formed a provincial canola growers’ association and last spring about 110 hectares were planted.That’s barely a garden plot compared with the 2.9 million hectares planted in Western Canada.However, Ontario has also been encouraging its farmers to grow canola, and this year about 10,000 Focus on Farming , ^V* ^ m hectares were planted Although canola’s distinctive yellow flowers aren’t common along eastern backroads, many consumers have probably been using canola oil for years, possibly without ever knowing it National food companies such as Canada Packers Inc.and Maple Leaf Monarch have canola processing plants in Ontario and have been competing with Prairie plants.Because Canada's population is relatively small for the amount of available farm land, farmers can’t rely on domestic markets to absorb the full production of crops such as canola.That’s why the country has a number of powerful agriculture export agencies, with the Canadian Wheat Board largest and best known.Agriculture Canada says there's more to making a sale of wheat to China or of turkey to Japan than just good quality and low price It takes salesmanship that includes a knowledge of how people in other cultures do business.“In many countries, a sale will depend more on the relationships between the people involved than the quality or price of the product,” says the department, which has just issued a handbook for companies seeking agricultural trade in foreign markets.DECLINE EXPECTED Salesmanship, won’t do much good, however, if there’s nothing to sell The summer drought on the Prairies is expected to sharply reduce grain exports this year, after Canada sold a record 30.3 million tonnes in the year ended July 31.However, the Canadian Meat Council is predicting foreign sales of meat will hit 318 million kilograms this year, which the council calls a “modern-time record high ” It estimates the value of those exports to be about $1 billion.The council says the increase will come mainly from rising shipments of pork products, while beef exports will remain stable Grain freight rates may fall under Tory government OTTAWA (CP) — There will be no in-crese in Prairie grain freight rates next August and they may even be lowered if the formula that determines them indicates they should be cut, Transport Minister Don Mazankowski said Friday.Even if the formula indicates an increase is in order there will be none, Mazankowski said in an interview.Over-quota levies returned A large number of milk producers will receive a substantial portion of the over-quota levy paid during the 1983-84 dairy year.According to the UP A, 9,851 producers stand to benefit from the $9.5 million to be refunded in the coming weeks by the Fédération des producteurs de lait du Québec.This payment will be based on production up to 105 per cent of the quota.Among those who had over-quota deliveries, 5,504 exceeded their quota by 5 per cent and less.In other words, 4,347 producers went over the 5 per cent guideline.The above-quota and in-quota levies for 1983-84 were $8.83 per kilogram and $1.42 per kilogram respectively.The refund to producers therefore amounts to $7.41 per kilogram.Last year was the first time since the creation of the Canadian quota system in 1971 that the over-quota levy had not been refunded to Québec milk producers.DEDUCTION ACCEPTED The Régie des marchés agricoles du Québec gave in to the request from the Fédération des producteurs de lait for a 10 per cent deduction applicable to quota sold by auction and to quota sold with farms slated for expansion.The Régie conveyed this request to the Department of Jus- UPA NEWS tice and stressed the importance that it be published as soon as possible in the Gazette officielle to come into effect on October 11, the date planned for the next public sale of quota.• UPA officials met Friday, October 5 with Quebec Labor Minister Raynald Fréchette to discuss to issues close to the union’s heart — farm and wood producers exemptions from the recent construction decree, and relations with the workmen’s health and safety board (CSST).Fréchette was receptive to both issues, accor ding to UPA News Highlights.The minister and the UPA agreed to set up a tri partite board to assess the regulations governing farming and to study the need for more adequate financial aid for accident prevention programs.The three parties on the board were not mentionned.He also said he hopes to get quick Parliamentary approval for a removal of the so-called volume cap on the amount of prairie grain which can be shipped at below commercial rates He also said a review of the future prospects of branch lines the railways want to abandon will be undertaken.A moratorium on branch-line abandonments has been ordered and the railways have agreed not to scrap branch lines they have already been given permission to abandon, Mazankowski said.The 33-per-cent increase in the grain freight rates that became law last Aug.l, a month before the general election that swept the Tories into office, HERNIA will remain in effect for this crop year which ends next July 31.Conservatives promised during the elec-tion campaign to freeze the grain freight rate, impose a morato- rium on branch-line abandonments and re move the volume cap on prairie grain shipments.PASSES ACT The grain freight rate came into effect in 1983 after passage of the Western Grain Transportation Act which ended the historic Crowsnest Pass freight rate.The Crow rate, which accounted for less than 20 per cent of the real cost of hauling grain, dated back to 1897.The railways pushed for change because they said they were losing so much money hauling grain they couldn't afford badly needed expansion of their rail systems.Height: 25” Width: 19V4” Depth: 36" Flue size: 7” Maximum log length: 27” Characteristics: Construction entirely made with VC steel plate with

Landersr Dear Ann Landers: Regarding the letterfrom a rapist who said his “hobby" was the result of the domineering women who raised him: He hates women and rape is the way he gets even.My background was similar, but things turned out differently Mother ran our family.Daddy was a wimp If anyone is at fault, it’s him Almost all my teaheers from nursery through high school, were women The male teachers were all effeminate.In one school the only male employee was the janitor I was disciplined and rewarded exclusi- vely by women.I learned early where the power was and I wanted to be on the winning side.I’m a homosexual.And now will you please answer my questions?Is it worse to rape a woman than to castrate a son?In a unisexual society, have parents forgotten how to make men and lovers out of their little boys?Is equality of sexes related to the increasing rate of rape and homosexuality?You advised the rapist to get counseling.That may solve his problem.It has done nothing for me.The big problem is what are we going to do about all the men who are growing up to hate women?And why do so many men want to be women these days?— In Search Of Answers In Columbia, S.C.Dear S.C.: Your assumption that more men hate women than vice-versa is a wild guess.I happen to believe that more females have suffered at the hands of males than the other way around Following your line of reasoning there should be more men-haters than women-haters.You imply that homosexuality results when men want to be women.Not true.No one knows for sure what causes homosexuality.Some authorities say the cause is genetic.Others claim it is psychological conditioning.Still others say it’s a combination of both.You say counseling didn’t help.Too bad you didn’t have a competent therapist.I suggest you try again.If you believe you chose homosexuality because women rule the world and you wanted to be on the winning side, your therapist did a very poor job.FIRST EXHIBITION OF PHOTOGRAPHY BY

Chris Chelios and Mike McPhee scored second-period goals to snap a 1-1 tie as Montreal Canadiens beat Quebec Nordiques 4-2 in National Hockey League play Monday night.Andre Savard brought Quebec within 3-2 when he tapped Tony McKegney’s rebound behind Montreal goaltender Steve Penney at 2:28 of the third period.Chris Nilan made it 4-2 at 8:49 when he took a pass from Guy Carbonneau and backhanded a shot between the right post and Quebec goaltender Mario Gosselin's glove.Quebec’s Anton Stastny and Montreal’s Bob Gainey had traded first-period goals.It was the second straight victory this season over their provincial rivals for the Canadiens, 6-2-1.The vic- tory also moved them into a tie with Hartford Whalers atop the Adams Division.The Nordiques, 3-6-1, inhabit the Adams Division basement.Penney faced 20 shots in goal for Montreal, while Gosselin faced 22.The first-period tempo was brisk, but mostly in one direction.The Canadiens outshot Quebec 10-2.Gosselin was sharp on several chances, including a shot by Mats Naslund who tried to redirect a pass from Bobby Smith past the Quebec goaltender at 8:46.The Nordiques goalie was lucky st 11:09 of the period whenGaineytooka pass from Carbonneau on the edge of the crease.With Gosselin out of position, Gainey had an open side of the net to shoot at but hit the outside of the post.That was the best chance during a two-man advantage for the Canadiens.Luc Dufour was off for roughing and Paul Gillis for holding after he collared Smith deep in the Montreal zone.Anton Stastny made the Nordiques second shot count when he gave Quebec a 1-0 lead at 16:58.He picked up a loose puck during a goalmouth scramble, went from his backhand to his forehand and slid a shot past Penney.Gainey evened the score 55 seconds later when his slap shot from the outer rim of the left circle zipped through Gosselin’s legs.SHOWED POISE Chelios showed some poise when he made it 2-1 Montreal at 7:27 of the second period.He fired a slap shot that Gosselin stopped with his leg pad.As the rebound slid out to the right circle Che- lios stepped around a check by rookie defenceman Bruce Bell, cradled the puck and snapped a shot past Gos selin.Smith engineered McPhee’s first goal of the season at 13:25 of the second period.He stationed himself behind the Nordiques goal and threaded a pass to McPhee as he cruised from the right circle intotheslot.McPhee’s wrist shot beat Gosselin low to the glove side.Ryan Walter, out with a concussion, and Peter Svoboda, out for two weeks with a badly cut hand, didn’t play for Montreal.Defenceman Craig Ludwig, who broke a knuckle in a pre-season fight with Dale Hunter, played his first game of the season for the Canadiens.And Mario Tremblay, who missed three games last week after suffering a groin injury, also returned to the Montreal lineup Seahawks shut down San Diego’s scoring machine SAN DIEGO (AP) — Dave Krieg completed 23 of 29 passes for 282 yards and Steve Largent caught three touchdown passes.But all Seattle Seahawks could talk about was defence.The Seahawk defensive unit recorded six sacks and forced four turnovers in a 24-0 whitewash Monday night of San Diego Chargers that kept Seattle in the thick of the National Football League playoff race.“By the fourth quarter, everybody was talking shutout,” said defensive By The Canadian Press Detroit Red Wings, one of the weakest teams in the National Hockey League for several seasons, are bucking the trend.Instead of following the lead of other teams in going with youth, the Red Wings have opted for veteran players this season.General manager Jim Devellano, who took over the team in 1982, believes veterans in their 30s can contribute greatly in rebuilding the team.The Red Wings have the oldest collection of skaters in the NHL, averaging 27.5 years, with such players as Brad Park, 36, Ivan Boldirev, 35, Dar-ryl Sittler, 34, and Dave ‘Tiger’ Williams, 30.The league average is 25.4 years.Toronto Maple Leafs’ average is a bushy-tailed 23.9.?Goalie Mike Moffat, who had a bright future with Boston Bruins two years ago, has ended his professional hockey career at 22, retiring from Nova Scotia Oilers, Edmonton Oilers’ farm team in the American Hockey League, to attend university.A native of Cambridge, Ont., Moffat starred for the Canadian team that won the world junior championship in 1981.He excelled for the Bruins in the 1982 playoffs, posting a 3.44 goals-against average in 11 games.?Centre-left winger Ron Wilson of Winnipeg Jets scored 30 goals and 85 points in only 65 games with Sherbrooke of the American Hockey League last season, but can’t shake the end Jacob Green, who helped the Seahawks hand San Diego its first shutout since a 7-0 loss to Denver in 1979.“Our secondary was covering so well.” The victory boosted the Seahawks to 7-2 for the season, good for a tie with Los Angeles Raiders and one game behind division leader Denver in the AFC West.Seattle’s defensive front, led by Green and Jeff Bryant, harassed San Diego quarterback Dan Fouts all night and racked up 47 yards in sack losses.Kenny Easley, a fourth-year NHL Notebook label that he’ll never be a prolific scorer in the NHL, no matter what he does.Wilson scored a goal and added an assist in the Jets’ recent 3-2 win over Boston Bruins, playing a rare regular shift after Winnipeg forward Perry Turnbull was injured and Paul MacLean banished for fighting.“He won’t score 40 goals or even 30 goals, but he is a player who can come off the bench and play cold,” said Winnipeg coach Barry Long.?Mike Rogers appears to have emerged from Herb Brooks’s doghouse to become an important element in New York Rangers’ attack.Last spring, when Rogers was benched during the Rangers’ playoff series with New York Islanders, no one was betting the speedy centre would be in New York this season.His production nosedived to 61 points — he scored at least 103 points from 1979 through 1982.His defensive work was spotty.His work ethics, conditioning and desire were questioned by the team’s management.“Herb said I wasn’t playing well last year, but he also said ‘Forget about it and play the way you can,’ ” says Rogers, who has looked like his old self in the early stages of this season.pro from UCLA, had three interceptions that ruined San Diego drives.The Chargers normally relish passing situations, but played without tight end Kellen Winslow and wide receiver Wes Chandler, and used Pete Holohan sparingly.“It was pretty much the same thing,” said San Diego’s Charlie Joiner, reflecting on a 31-17 loss at Seattle earlier this season in which the Chargers committed eight turnovers.“They play good defence and are very good on special teams.” ?Head coach Barry Long of Winnipeg Jets wonders aloud what could possess Smythe Division-rival Vancouver Canucks to try to win National Hockey League games with their fists.“What are they doing out there?” Long asked a day after the Canucks were walloped 13-2 by Philadelphia Flyers.“I see in the summary they had another goon show last night.“I don’t know (Canucks coach Bill) Laforge very well, but I know his junior background and it disturbs me that the stuff we’re trying to clean up in this league is the stuff he’s trying to win with.” ?After an early trip west, centre Dale Hunter of Quebec Nordiques had a warning for any NHL clubs making a safari into Alberta — be prepared for a rough time.Most clubs play Edmonton Oilers and Calgary Flames in two or three nights on their swing through Alberta.“That province is going to be looked on as the NHL sink-hole by most teams because the Oilers always were tough and the Flames have improved to the point where they’re a very difficult team to beat,” Hunter said.?Right winger Anders Hedberg of New York Rangers plans to retire at the end of this season.“It’s not that I’ve had enough or that I’m fed up with the game because I love to play hockey,” said Hedberg, 33.“It’s just time to move on.” Krieg found Largent for touchdown passes of 11, 13 and 16 yards.Lar-gent’s first TD pass came on his first reception of the night, the fifth straight game in which he scored with his first reception.Largent scored two of his touchdowns in the first half and Norm John son booted a 42-yard field goal for a 17 0 lead at intermission.Largent's third TD pass came on the team’s second possession of the third quarter, after Easley had picked off a Fouts pass at the six and returned it 32 yards.San Diego’s ofensive line collapsed around Fouts.The Seahawks racked up 47 yards in sack losses against Fouts, who managed 24 completions in 39 attempts for 200 yards.The Chargers produced only 114 yards total offence in the first half and were forced to punt four times.Maury Buford’s last kick carried to the Seattle 19, setting the stage for the Seahawks’ late scoring drive.This time, Krieg covered the distance to the goal line in nine plays.Record-setting By The Canadian Press Rueben Mayes, who ran for a National Collegiate Athletic Association single-game rushing record on Saturday, has always used speedy legs and attentive ears to achieve success.The 21-year-old native of North Bat-tleford, Sask., a junior at Washington State, mixed his powerful running style with sprinter’s speed to run for 357 yards and three touchdowns against Oregon State.“I figured Rueben was one of the best,” his father, Murray, said in a telephone interview from North Bat-tleford on Monday.“I knew he would do well.“I didn’t really think he would break any records but I felt he would do well.” Mayes broke the NCAA mark of 356 yards set six years ago by Eddie Lee Ivery of Georgia Tech.Success is nothing new for Rueben It began track and field He was named the best male athlete in North Battleford's Legion track program three years in a row and in Detroit has a new over-the-hill gang Shootout victory to Galt The soccer season is coming to a close Monday two teams were eliminated in playoff action Richmond bantam boys lost 2-1 in a come-from-behind effort by Alexander Galt.Bobby Gilbert scored twice for Galt and R Bowring replied for Richmond.The sun set on the senior boys of Stanstead as Galt won in a 6-5, double-overtime thriller.It started out as a blow-out as Galt’s Tray Lunn quickly scored two early goals.Stanstead bounced back and, on a beautiful cross, headed in the first of their five Galt showed that one goal means nothing as Lunn got a hat trick on a perfect kick Minutes later, the ball was pushed to the outside of Stanstead s penalty area.The goalie and Lunn both went for it.Lunn, showing that he could move, gained possession and crossed it in front of the net Eric Neil tapped it into the open net to make the score 4-1.But Stanstead came right back and plo wed through Galt’s defence to score three more before the half After intermission, both teams were shut out until the final 10 minutes.A pushing penalty was cal led against Stanstead deep in its zone.Mike Chute quickly put the ball in play, catching the defence off guard.Callum Findlay ripped a shot into the corner of the net giving Galt a 5-4 lead.Stanstead put the goal behind, charged downfield and scored to tie the game at five Because it was a playoff game, two 10 minute overtime periods had to be played to break the tie Many times both teams had chances to go ahead — but the de fences held fast.Twenty minutes passed and neither team scored, therefore a shoot-out was played to decide the winner.Each team selected five players to take the penalty shots.The first three shooters for Stanstead were successful while Galt managed to put only one out of three in.It loo ked like curtains for Galt but Stanstead’s next shooter missed High School Roundup .i 1 By Bruce Tracy the net Galt's shot was good and the score was 3-2 in Stanstead’s favor Stantead’s fifth shooter went away empty-handed due to Emmanuel Talbot's good save.Galt tied it up and the play went into sudden death.Stanstead went first.The sho( was a good one but not good enough as Talbot made a spectacular, diving save.The tension grew and the crowd was silent.I-ouis Monvoisinof Galt was the next shooter.The entier soccer season for Stanstead was on the line Monvoisin stepped up and his blazing shot left the goaltender lying on the ground, giving Galt its sixth and final goal PLAY-OFF SCHEDULE With this win under their belt, Galt advances to the final to be held at BUS Wednesday at 2:30.All other ET1AC championship games will be held Wednesday.The junior boys final will be held at BCS starting at 3 p.m.Galt will host the junior and bantam girl’s finals, also starting at three.In Stanstead at 2:45 p.m., Galt’s bantam boys will battle for the top.Also at 2:45 p.m., the Richmond senior girls will host their final.Each will be the last game played for that team The matchups look to be crowd-pleasing so come on out and cheer on your favorite team rusher North Battleford ‘star’ his final year of track was the Canadian indoor junior sprint champion.“Some of the players from the Vikings (his high school team) called him after he left and asked how they could repeat as divison champions,” his father recalls.“Rueben told them to listen to their coach.” The Vikings lost only two games in three years and in the latter part of his school career Rueben “could score almost at will; they couldn't stop him ’’ Despite efforts by the University of Saskatchewan to convince Mayes to play there, he accepted a full scholarship at Washington State.In Mayes’ final year of high school his coach contacted Washington coach Bob Badea when he was a guest coach at the training camp of Edmon ton Eskimos of the Canadian Football League.Badea liked what he saw and encouraged Washington State to pursue the youngster.Saskatchewan offered a scholarship of $1,000 a year while Washington offered a full $6,000 scholarship."The difference was money,” admitted Murray.“I wanted him to get an education but it was a question of who was going to pay for it.“I was having my own financial troubles.” Mayes was rated one of Washington's top three backs by the end of his freshman year He started regularly as a sophomore until a separated shoulder forced him to miss the last half of the season.This year he has run for 1,218 yards.Says Washington coach Jim Walden: “He’s magnificent.” Mayes, who had a 100-metre best time of 10.8 seconds for Washington's track team last season, intends to play professional football but says he's unsure in what league.“That’s a long way down the road," he said in a telephone interview from the Washington campus.“I hate to say it, but I suppose (the decision) will come down to a question of money.” Saskatchewan Roughriders are almost certain to make Mayes their territorial protected choice next year.Scoreboard HOCKEY WALES CONFERENCE Atoms DMsiM Montreal W 6 2 1 l T F A P 34 25 13 Hartford 6 3 1
