Liberal MPs feel their party should admit that the previous Liberal government made a mistake in allowing the United States to test its cruise missiles over Canada.“Several (MPs) are ready to admit it,” Jean Lapierre, MP for the Eastern Townships riding of Shef-ford, said in an interview with the Montreal daily Le Devoir on Monday.“Now that we can be more free in our thinking, that we are not captive to the exercise of power, we see things ina largerperspective,” said Lapierre, attending hearings of the House of Commons-Senate Special Joint Committee on Canada's International Relations.Asked if he thought granting rights for the cruise missile testing was an error, Lapierre said it was “a decision to be thought over again.” The MP added that the majority of Liberal party members and caucus members are today opposed to more cruise missile tests.While there was always dissen- sion over the plan, approved by the government of Pierre Trudeau, and especially since the defeat of the Liberal party last September, MPs hadn’t publicly evoked the possibility of admitting they had made a mistake.Party president Iona Campagno-lo described the debate over the cruise as “normal” for a party trying to reform itself.But admitting a mistake would not be a good idea, she added.“Using negative terms regarding the past would not do much good,” Weather, page 2 Sherbrooke

United States, an expression he prefers to a “pacifist” policy.He added that the party, as well as discussing the cruise, was also discussing the possibility of Canada setting up its own detection

worker but lacks killer instinct Be ‘pragmatic’, free-trader tells committee OTTAWA (CP) — A Bulgarian diplomat now on home leave will not be allowed to return to Canada because the security service says he’s been engaged in activities “incompatible with his consular status” — a diplomatic phrase for spying.The External Affairs Department announced Monday it has asked the Bulgarian embassy in Ottawa to make the necessary arrangements to cancel the return of Raikov Ivan Delibaltov, the assistant trade commissioner at the Bulgarian consulate general in Toronto.“Based on information received from the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, the Canadian government has concluded that Mr.Delibaltov had engaged in activities which were incompatible with his consular status,” the department said in a terse, two-paragraph news release.“These activities related to the collection of information to which Mr.Delibaltov did not have authorized access.Mr.Delibaltov was therefore declared persona non grata.” The External Affairs Department would not elaborate on the statement, nor would the security service.There were no diplomatic officers at the Bulgarian embassy in Ottawa late Monday afternoon to comment.External Affairs spokesman Denis Comeau said he did not know how long Delibaltov had been in Canada nor when the offending activities took place.External Affairs Minister Joe Clark is on an official visit to several countries in South East Asia.FIRST EXPULSION Gerry Cummings, spokesman for the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, confirmed Delibaltov is the first diplomat to be expelled since the civilian agency replaced the RCMP security service as the agency responsible for national security.The last diplomats known to have been expelled from Canada for spying-related activities were Soviet trade official Victor Tseko-visky and Anatoly Solousav of the International Civil Aviation Organization, both based in Montreal.By Robert MacPherson MONTREAL (CP) — The Royal Bank of Canada waxed enthusiastically Monday in favor of trade liberalization with the United States, saying its long-term benefits would far outstrip the immediate social costs.Edward Neufeld, senior vice-president and chief economist at Canada’s largest bank, told the special joint Senate-Commons committee on international relations that Canada has “no choice” but to move swiftly towards freer trade with the United States.“Canada should not wait for progress in multilateral negotiations before attempting to achieve signi- AUCKLAND (AP) — A man and a woman were arrested Tuesday and charged with murder and arson in connection with the bombing of the Rainbow Warrior, a ship used in protests by the international environmental group Greenpeace, police said.Detective Superintendent Allan Galbraith said the two were charged with the murder of Greenpeace photographer Fernando Pe-riera, 36, who died in the July 10 explosion, arson and conspiracy to ficant

achieve results.” Neufeld’s comments were among nine presentations dealing with free trade Monday, as the travelling senators and MPs opened two days of hearings in Montreal.Testimony today is to focus on Canada's potential role in the U.S.strategic defence initiative, commonly known as Star Wars.‘EXAGGERATED NOTION’ Neufeld, who dislikes the term “free trade” because it has acqui- commit

said Canadians may have “an exaggerated notion” of what trade liberalization might create — such as layoffs and factory closings in aging industries like textiles and footwear.But Neufeld said if the government adopts social policies to absorb the immediate impact, all Canadians would benefit from more capital investment, increased tax revenues and a higher standard of living.In another presentation, University of Montreal economist Pierre-Paul Proulx recommended step-by-step talks with the U.S.that would stretch beyond the traditio- New Zealand police said the two people arrested

regional representatives.The Union des producteurs agricoles, an association representing all 43,000 Quebec farmers, said agriculture especially needs “a product-by-product approach, extremely supple and pragmatic” — based on continuing consultations among Ottawa, farm producers and the provinces.POSE RISK Arguing against free trade was McGill University economics professor Jack Weldon, who said political and social programs would be at risk if Canada moves further into the huge U.S.economy.“I am arguing that vigorous government intervention makes a society that is richer, larger and more independent,” Weldon said.He warned policy makers not to view free trade as a way to avoid forging a new domestic industrial policy — ideally one that would emphasize labor-intensive enter prises that can slash unemployment.Local 91 of the Teamsters union, representing Quebec brewery workers, said freer trade would see U.S.beer-makers dumping their surplus products here, endangering 6,000 jobs in Quebec breweries By Paul Mooney QUEBEC (CP) — Manpower Mi nister Pauline Marois became the first woman to seek the leadership of a major Quebec political party Monday, announcing she will enter the race to succeed Premier René Lévesque as leader of the Parti Québécois.Marois, 36, and the mother of four children, announced her can didacy to a cheering crowd of 200 supporters in her riding of La Pel-trie northwest of Quebec City.Marois is the third declared candidate in the race, along with Justice Minister Pierre Marc Johnson and Foreign Trade Minister Bernard Landry.Agriculture Minister Jean Garon and Quebec City lawyer Guy Bertrand are also expected to run.Using the slogan “Let’s Seize The Future,” Marois said the leadership campaign shouldn’t be restricted by opinion polls.“The things 1 have to say and the things I want to hear could be upsetting,” said Marois, adding that Quebecers expect more from their political parties than glossy images.“Does the Parti Québécois have something to offer besides independence?Can this party still call itself the champion of thousands of unemployed and welfare recipients?” she asked.“Is there a place for the young, women and the elderly?” Marois said Quebec independence is “the flame which will light all the PQ’s forward progress” and By Paul Mooney QUEBEC (CP) — A tough-minded administrator with a huge capacity for work, Quebec Manpower and Income Security Minister Pauline Marois is no stranger to the conflicting demands of politics and maternity.Her candidacy for the leadership of the Parti Québécois — the first by a woman in a major Quebec party — is in character for the 36-year old mother of four whose latest child, a boy, was born on July 6.During the 1981 provincial election when she first ran for office, Marois campaigned well into her eighth month of pregnancy with her second child “Her riding (La Peltrie, northwest of Quebec City) has a lot of couples with young children,” said Therese Fortin-Gagnon.a former PQ regional president.“1 think she won their hearts when they saw her campaigning.” Marois’ leading opponents in the campaign are all expected to be men, colleagues from cabinet which she joined in 1981 as minister responsible for the status of women.Her leadership bid is seen as a means of promoting more interest in the party among women.BUILT PARTY Marois is widely considered to be a tough-minded and capable administrator who fights hard in cabinet for her department.Besides overseeing one of the largest budgets in the cabinet, Marois is a member of the powerful cabinet priorities committee, vice-president of Treasury Board and responsible for the status of women.But some senior PQ officials be lieve Marois lacks political experience, an ability to go for her oppo nents' jugular and a talent for capturing headlines while she accepted Quebec’s choice on the issue "I still in my heart believe in it.” Marois’ youngest child, a boy, was born July 6.Her husband Claude Blanchet is president of the Quebec Federation of Labor’s Solidarity Fund which invests in Quebec businesses.Her three oldest children — a girl and two boys — appeared on the platform with Marois as she made her announcement.Marois was first elected to the National Assembly in 1981.She was immediately named to cabinet as minister responsible for the status of women.Marois has a degree in social work and a masters’ degree in business administration.She ran a health and social services centre and set up Montreal’s emergency social services system before becoming a press aid to former finance minister Jacques Parizeau.All members of the PQ will vote for the new leader in province-wide elections Sept.29.If no candidate emerges with an overall majority on the first ballot, a run-off vote will be held one week later.A recent opinion poll conducted by the Institut Québécois de l'opinion publique indicated the PQ would enter an election hard on the heels of the opposition Liberals if it selected Marois as leader.Twenty-nine per cent of those surveyed said they would vote for a Marois led PQ, compared to 32 per cent who said they would vote for Robert Bourassa’s Liberals.“She needs some seasoning,” a veteran PQ official said.“As capable as she is, she sometimes lacks the political sense to destroy the opposition when she’s got them on the ropes.You have to have that kind of instinct if you want to lead a political party.” Marois is typical of the intellectuals who built the PQ.With a degree in social work and a masters’ degree in business administration, she ran a health and social services centre and set up Montreal's emergency social services system.Marois helped draft Quebec’s youth protection legislation, hailed at the time as the most advanced on the continent.STRESSED SOVEREIGNTY She set up the first community television co operative in Quebec, taught at a junior college, was a press aide to former PQ finance minister Jacques Parizeau and ran the office of Lise Payette, the former minister for the status of women.Marois has shown a capacity to rally women When she was dropped from the priorities committee in 1982, a torrent of protest from outraged womens' groups prompted Premier René Lévesque to reinstate her.During the watershed debate over the PQ’s decision to scrap its independence option last fall, Marois signed a letter with 12 colleagues stressing the need to retain sovereignty in the PQ platform.She later bowed to cabinet solidarity, agreeing the next election should not be fought on the issue.But she continued to speak out in favor of independence.Marois has said women have a “fundamental insecurity” about taking on important jobs.“They don’t think they’re good enough to handle a tough job with a lot of responsibility.We’ve got to get over fhnl " Two charged in Rainbow bombing i 2—The RECORD—Tuesday, July 23, 1985 Families of Air India crash victims get advice from government OTTAWA (CP) — Spokesmen for the families and friends of the victims of last month’s crash of an Air-India jumbo jet said Monday they are satisfied with the government’s handling of the aftermath of the disaster.R.K.Moorthy told reporters: “I’m sure the government is very anxious to help’’ after he emerged from a four-hour meeting with Prime Minister Brian Mulroney’s senior adviser, Fred Doucet, several Conservative MPs, and officials from the External Affairs and Transport departments.MP Paul McCrossan said the delegation of victims’ family members and friends asked for help in cutting the red tape grieving families are contending with.Moorthy, who lost several friends in the air disaster, said how the government’s assurances are “translated into action is so- mething we will all be very keenly watching.” So far, Moorthy noted, government officials have reacted with compassion and sympathy, and have done an outstanding job in setting up information sessions for the grieving relatives and friends.Air-India Flight 182, bound for India from Toronto and Montreal, plunged into the Atlantic off the Irish coast a month ago today, killing all 329 people on board, most of them Canadians.RECOVER MORE BODIES McCrossan said the delegation asked for a rundown on the status of the crash investigation and requested that attempts continue to recover more bodies.Only 131 bodies have been recovered from the depths of the crash site 120 nautical miles southwest of the Irish coast.Eleven of the bodies haven’t been identified.McCrossan, MP for the Toronto riding of York-Scarborough, said the government will follow through on requests that Ottawa prod the provinces to speed up providing records needed to draw up death certificates and look at ways to ease visa problems for family members outside Canada.The government is also putting togther a check list of the legal steps victims’ families must take.McCrossan said the families of the victims will be told what went on in Monday’s.There was no direct request for financial compensation, he said.McCrossan said attempts to recover more pieces of wreckage will carry on “to continue with the investigation and, if they can on the way through, if they happen to identify bodies, they will attempt to recover them.’’ DIFFICULT CONDITIONS Because of sea conditions and the depth of the water, more than 2,000 metres, McCrossan suggested that more bodies may not be recovered.We don’t know if we have the technology to bring them up,” he said.A Canadian submersible device had been scouring the ocean floor to map where crucial parts of the wreckage are lying, but ships taking part in the search can only lift relatively small pieces from the seabed.McCrossan also noted that because of international la w it is up to the Indian government to determine what is brought up.McCrossan said there have been no confirmed sightings of any more bodies.What investigators have seen “is a lot of sharks at all levels.” A U.S.expert investigating the crash said Saturday an analysis of recordings of control tower communications indicates the jet broke apart before crashing, but the reason remains a mystery.Harvey Wiener, parliamentary sectretary to External Affairs Minister Joe Clark, reiterated after Monday’s meeting that there is still no firm evidence a bomb brought down the aircraft.MET COMMISSIONER Later, the delegation met with India’s High Commissioner to Canada, Surbir Jit Singh Chhatwall, to discuss ways of speeding up the processing of death certificates, how to obtain attestations from Air-India that individuals were aboard the flight, whether the Indian government would help members of victims’ families return to India for religious rites, and whether Indian authorities would set up an information centre for people effected by the disaster.Commission spokesman M.K.Dhar said that during the hour-long meeting Chhatwall and the group also discussed the possibility of flying unidentified bodies back to Canada, where relatives who haven’t been able to travel to Ireland to attempt to identify their next of kin could view them.Chhatwall, Dhar said, assured the delegation the commission will help survivors if there are any problems with obtaining documents from Air-India and would provide certification of marriages and births, drawn from passport information of the Indian citizens on the flight, that will likely be necessary for property settlements.On returning to India for religious rites, Dhar said assistance “would probably mean an air ticket to India and back” for family members.Chhatwall also said the commission would provide all possible aid to a community information centre.Baptist church raided as man fights for girl LEE, Maine (AP) — State troopers were dispatched to this tiny northeastern Maine town Monday after fundamentalist churchgoers were attacked by townspeople wielding pipes and chains.Both sides predicted more violence.“I will never rule it out,” said John W.Crooker, 43, who barged into the Lee Baptist Church with six other men Sunday evening, setting off a fracas over the custody of his teenage daughter.At least four people were injured, none seriously.No one was arrested.In Augusta, Attorney General James Tierney announced he had sent more troopers to the Lee area.“Violence against any Maine citizen will not be tolerated,” Tierney said.The incident stemmed from a dispute between pastor Daniel Dunphy, 34, and Crooker, who is trying to get his 16-year-old daughter, Sheila, out of what he calls a “cult.” Dunphy’s wife Debbie said about a dozen men swinging chains and pipes barged into the church while her husband was preaching from the pulpit.“Women were hysterical” and children cried, she said.Crooker, a papermill worker from nearby Prentiss, said he went to the church with his brother and nephew — all unarmed — and four other men who had pipes and chains.“I asked for my daughter.I called him Jim Jones because if I called him pastor I would be lying,” said Crooker, referring to the leader of the Peoples Temple cult whose members died in a mass murder-suicide in Guyana.Old-timer staying home despite huge forest fire NORTH BEND, B.C.(CP) — An 80-year-old man who says he’s “not afraid to die” is one of the few residents left in North Bend as a forest fire has burned to within one kilometre of the village.Most of North Bend’s 250 residents left during the weekend.But not Ray Martin, who lives alone in a decaying log shack outside the village on the west side of the Fraser Canyon.“If the fire gets too close, I’ll just go and lie in that creek over there,” Martin told a reporter.“I’m not afraid to die.” Although the fire has burned 2,215 hectares, it’s not getting any closer.About 100 firefighters, with four bulldozers and eight to 10 helicopters, have stopped the flames at a ridge south of the village.On Monday, firefighters tried a controlled burn to create a fire break at the crest of the ridge, but the attempt was postponed.Forest service spokesman Frank Ull-mann said humidity prevented the timber from burning evenly.Ullmann said firefighters will try again today to create a controlled burn.HUMIDITY HELPS He said the fire expanded by only about 15 hectares Monday, partly because of relative humidity near 50 per cent and cooler temperatures.The fire has “burned itself into a very good position right now, and we’re confident that now is the time to start hitting it on all the flanks.” John McMullen, the regional fire commissioner, said he knows the locations of people still in their homes, and helicopters or boats could move them quickly.“I’m sitting here and saying to myself, ‘These things don’t happen — towns just don’t burn,’” said Larrie Cooper, wife of the community’s volunteer fire chief and one of the few residents still in North Bend.“We just have to wait and see.” Renovations cost $430,000 TORONTO (CP) — Renovating the residence of the Speaker of the House of Commons will cost taxpayers $430,000, the Toronto Globe and Mail says.Public Works spokesman Monique Lortie said Monday the department had approved recommendations contained in a document obtained by The Globe and Mail under access-to-information legislation.The decorating tab at the Gatineau Hills farm estate became controversial earlier this month when the Toronto Star said Speaker John Bosley and his wife Nicole had requested $400,000 in renovations Bosley later denied submitting such a request but said he had complied with an Official Residences Council suggestion that he list renovations he felt were in order.He said he supplied a list without a price tag.Four pages of recommendations prepared by the Public Works Department in March listed $165,000 for renovations to the farmhouse, built in the 1930s; $130,000 for redecoration and furniture; $40,000 for air conditioning and heating; $70,000 to build a two-car garage adjacent to the house with a suite for staff; $20,000 in consultants’ fees; and $5,600 in other fees.Seconl George MacLaren, Publisher .569-9511 Charlea Bury, Editor.569-6345 Lloyd G.Schelb, Advertising Manager .569-9525 Mark Gulllette, Press Superintendent .569-9931 Richard

(CP) — Five members of a group called the Hungarian Human Rights Foundation held a 12-hour vigil outside the U.S.consulate here Monday to protest what they call a cultural genocide of the Hungarian minority in Romania.The group was lobbying for 2.5 million Hungarians in Romania on the eve of hearings beginning today by the U.S.Senate international trade subcommittee on extending most-favored nation status to Romania.Fish have high PCB levels MONTREAL (CP) — Three large sturgeon caught recently in west-end Lake St.Pierre and tested for chemical contamination showed concentrations of PCBs well above levels considered safe, said a spokesman for the federal Fisheries Department Monday.Jean Yves Roy said the three contaminated sturgeon were the largest among 22 specimens from the lake, which is a wide stretch of the St.Lawrence River 120 kilometres northeast of Montreal.Crash casualty names released FERMONT, Que.(CP) — Police released the identities Monday of two men killed and two injured in the crash of a light aircraft about 95 kilometres north of this community.Dead are Patrick J.Aylward of Labrador City, the pilot of the Cessna 180, and passenger Charles Stafford of Wabush, Labrador.Quebec provincial police spokesman Ginette Couture said that passengers John Perry and Hanson Wyles, both of Wabush, were also injured in the crash Sunday evening.City sued for cop suspension QUEBEC (CP) — The lawyer for Ste-Foy police Sgt.Serge Lefebvre has threatened to sue the city for suspending his client without pay because he is being held as a material witness into the recent slayings of two Quebec City policemen.Lawyer Michel Pouliot said Monday he has asked Ste-Foy mayor Louis-Marie Lavoie to reverse his decision to suspend Lefebvre, arguing that the matter was beyond the jurisdiction of municipal laws.Shifting flour kills two HALIFAX (CP) — A veteran waterfront worker and a longshoreman with only two hours on the job were crushed to death Monday when tonnes of flour shifted aboard a Soviet ship, burying the men in a mountain of dust.Workers recovered two other longshoremen who were taken to hospital with serious injuries.The injured men, who were not identified, were conscious when lifted from the ship’s hold and transferred to waiting ambulances.Bell wants new charges added OTTAWA (CP) — Bell Canada wants to start charging customers who ask operators to check to make sure a telephone line is busy or interrupt a call in an emergency, the CRTC announced Monday.Bell has applied to the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission to implement the charges to cut down on what it says is abuse of the services.Bell wants to charge $1 to verify that a telephone line is really busy and $1.50 to check a line and then interrupt the call.Bronfman denies messanger role TORONTO (CP) — Canadian distiller Edgar Bronfman has denied reports he has taken a goodwill message to Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev from Israeli Prime Minister Shimon Peres.Bob Kasmire of the New York public relations firm of Adam and Rinehart, representing Bronfman, told the Toronto Star a report on Israeli state radio, distributed Monday by international wire services, was incorrect.Israeli state radio said Peres had sent an oral message to Gorbachev, through Bronfman, assuring the Soviet leader that Israel “is not an ¦ enemy of the Soviet Union.” Heroin legalized for cancer WINNIPEG (CP) — Heroin for the terminally ill will become available in Canadian hospitals by mid-October, federal Health Minister Jake Epp said Monday.Epp, in Winnipeg on government business, told reporters the heroin will come from the United Kingdom, where medicinal use of heroin has been legalized for years.Epp said a regulatory change is needed in the Narcotics Act to legalize the medicinal use of heroin in Canada.Ghitter joins Alberta PC race CALGARY (CP) — Ron Ghitter, a 49-year-old Calgary lawyer, announced today he will run for the leadership of the Alberta Progressive Conservative party.Ghitter served as a member of the Alberta legislature from 1971 to 1979 and more recently was chairman of the province’s committee on tolerance and understanding.He joins former energy minister Don Getty and Municipal Affairs Minister Julian Koziak in the bid to succeed Premier Peter Lougheed at a leadership convention Oct.11-13 in Edmonton.Expo injunction sought VANCOUVER (CP) — An association comprising eight B.C.religious groups sought an interim injunction Monday that would halt work on the religious pavilion at Expo 86.The groups also petitioned the B.C.Supreme Court to set aside a decision by Expo’s board of directors to approve a pavilion run by Crossroads Christian Communications Inc., producers of the television program 100 Huntley Street.Spokesmen for the Pacific Interfaith Citizenship Association of B.C.told a news conference that Expo's February approval of the 100 Huntley Street pavilion violates two sections of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and it would be wrong if only one faith is represented at the fair.Legless man walks for hungry MONTROSE, 111.(AP) —It has taken Bob Wie-land, a legless Vietnam veteran, almost three years to walk on his hands three-quarters of the way across the United States.Wieland, 39, of Arcadia, Calif., says his goal is to obtain $24 million in corporate and individual donations — $5 for each of the 4.8 million metre-long “steps” of his Walk for Hunger.When Wieland reached Effingham, 111., last week, he had travelled 3,340 kilometres and raised $225,000.Star Wars ‘partnership’ wanted WASHINGTON (AP) — British Defence Minister Michael Heseltine, after meeting with U.S.Defence Secretary Caspar Weinberger, said Monday Britain expected to enter into a “partnership” on Star Wars research.Heseltime termed “extremely constructive” his more than two-hour Pentagon session with Weinberger and other senior U.S.defence officials.He said there were “no misunderstandings” between London and Washington on Britain’s desire to be a partner, not merely a subcontractor, in research for a space-based anti-missile system.Voting heavy in Haiti PORT-AU-PRINCE (AP) — Haitians voted Monday — some more than once — in a rare referendum on the “democratization” of the Duvalier family’s 28-year rule.Although dissident leaders called for a boycott of the referendum and Roman Catholic leaders termed the ballot “illegal,” voter turnout appeared heavy.Overwhelming approval of President-for-life Jean-Claude Duvalier, 33, seems likely.“The poor and the illiterate were carried from voting place to voting place to vote many times," said dissident leader Grégoire Eugene.Most people outside the city hall polling station admitted they had voted more than once.Dam accident site inspected STAVA, Italy (AP) — Engineers and surveyors are inspecting the site where an earth dam gave way, killing an estimated 220 people in a torrent of water and mud that at least one top official blamed on human error.In the valley below, soldiers, civil defence workers and volunteers are still searching what remains of the village of Stava for victims of last Friday’s disaster.By late Monday they had recovered 199 bodies, and they estimated the final death toll would be 220.Victims’ photos to be aired?CORK, Ireland (AP) — Irish police have requested that photographs of four girls killed in last month’s Air-India crash be shown on television in India and Canada in hopes of speeding identification, police said Monday.The girls, aged between eight and 18.appear to be asleep in the photographs given to Air-India on Sunday, a police spokesman said.Eleven of the 131 bodies recovered from the crash site about 120 nautical miles southwest of the Irish coast have not been identified and are being held at Cork Regional Hospital Opposition leaders arrested ngth harem pants underneath.She and a few women at the time were well aware that women’s clothing was prohibitive.” However, few others adopted these early bloomers, she said.The turn of the century brought big changes in technology and transportation, namely the automobile, that necessitated changes in costume to make getting in and out easier.“We do get a streamlining in clothing basically because of those changes," McKay says of that period.Then came the 1920s: “We look back at the 1920s and say, ‘What was the fuss all about?’ But that’s the first time women’s dresses had been up off the floor in 5,000 years.” TROUSERS SHUNNED Women like Marlene Dietrich are noted for daring to wear pants in the 1930s, but McKay says trousers on women weren't widely accepted until well into the 1960s.“It wasn’t until after the counter-culture young movement of the ‘60s and the women’s movement that pants became respectable,” she said.“There was a time when it was (considered) immoral for women to wear pants.” The Second World War brought shorter, tighter clothing with short sleeves, the result of wartime restrictions on fabric, she said And because women were needed to work in factories, clothing was designed for safety and comfort.In 1947, Chritian Dior introduced the “new look” reminiscent of the bell shape of 100 years earlier, but not to the same extreme.During the 1950s, men’s and women's roles were blurring somewhat and the clothing established “the groundwork for what’s going on today,” she says, citing sports wear items such as Bermuda shorts and pedal pushers.The ’60s and ’70s brought pants and the unisex look with both clothing and fabric interchangeable between the sexes.At the same time, more women worked outside the home, especially in non-traditional jobs.“As we get down to the ’70s, we’ve got women forced with these dual choices, to stay home or to go to work and to present a skirt or a pant silhouette,” says McKay “The choice is not there for men.That business suit, developed 200 years ago, is still around.” Are men to blame for designing restrictive clothing for women?Not totally, she says.In Marie Antoinette’s day, the court designer was a woman by the name of Rose Bertain.Men didn’t begin to take over the fashion world

The bitter was mixed with the sweet for the baseball-pitching Mahler brothers Monday night.Shortly after Rick Mahler had six-hit Montreal for a 7-1 National League baseball triumph that gave him his career-high 14th victory, his brother Mickey, the Expos lefthander, was told he was being sent to the team’s Class AAA affiliate in Indianapolis.Rick was not aware of the move when he spoke in the Braves’ clubhouse following the game.“I was over at Mickey’s house for lunch today,” he said.“It was exciting for me to come into town and have him pitching in the same league.” While the brothers missed by one day pitching against each other — Mickey made his last start Sunday — it’s unlikely anyone would have beaten Rick on Monday night.He struck out five, walked two and was on his way to his first shutout of the season until Tim Raines walked in the eighth and scored on Vance Law’s double.By then, the Braves were in total command, after a four-run third inning against Montreal starter David Palmer, 6-8.The inning was capped by Terry Harper’s two-run home run, his 10th.Before that, Dale Murphy and Bob Horner drove in runs with singles.FOILS MOVE Atlanta added two runs in the fifth when Bruce Benedict delivered a bases-loaded single, foiling the Expos’ strategy, in which Palmer intentionally walked Ken Oberkfell with first base open to face Benedict.An RBI single by Horner behind Murphy’s leadoff triple in the seventh was simply more icing on the cake for Mahler, 14-8, dropping the third-place Expos 3 1-2 games behind the East Division-leading St.Louis Cardinals.“I see it as the team being 14-8 when I’m pitching,” said Mahler, shrugging off his success.“I’ve had a lot of offensive support from the team, and that’s been a boost for me.” Mahler’s effort was especially soothing for the Braves’ pitching staff, which had been battered by New York Mets for 31 runs in the previous two games.“It was tough the last couple of days,” agreed Mahler.“It was important getting away from New York and winning the first game here.” GOES WITH HEAT Mahler said he relied mainly on his fastball because he had faced the Expos three times previously this season and found them to be a team “that sits on the off-speed stuff.” “Today, I wanted to be a little more aggressive and go with my fastball.” While Palmer, who was passed over a turn in the rotation by Montreal manager Buck Rodgers to regain his velocity, didn’t lack aggressiveness, there was something missing.“He made good pitches, but his inconsistency got him into trouble,” Rodgers said.Meanwhile, Mickey Mahler, who had a 1-4 record and a 3.54 eamed-run average while in the Expos’ starting rotation, will be replaced on the roster by left-hander Dan Schatzeder.Schatzeder was placed on the disabled list June21, and had been in Indianapolis rehabili- Filer and Caudill combine for Jays 3-1 win By Neil Davidson TORONTO (CP) — A new starter and an old stopper emerged from the Toronto bullpen Monday night, turning back the clock and the opposition.Tom Filer, looking for his first major league win in three years, and Bill Caudill, enduring an “eternity" without a save, finally hit the groove as Toronto Blue Jays downed Seattle Mariners 3-1 in a American League baseball game.Filer, 1-0, allowed just one hit in seven innings to record his first victory in*the major leagues since July 3, 1982.Caudill, meanwhile, took care of the last two outs to record his first save since June 20.An RBI double by Tony Fernan- dez in the third and run-scoring singles by catcher Gary Allenson and Lloyd Moseby in the fifth provided all the offence Toronto needed.Seattle scored its lone run in the eighth when Jim Presley hit a Jim Acker delivery into the left-field seats for his 22nd homer.Gary La-velle replaced Acker before giving way to Caudill, who made the most of the opportunity.Red Sox 6 A’s 4 Third baseman Wade Boggs of Boston Red Sox is terrorizing rival American League pitchers once again.Boggs extended his major league-leading hitting streak to 25 games Monday night as he hit two doubles and a single, drove in two runs and scored a pair to help Boston defeated Oakland A’s 6-4.The AL batting champion with a .361 average in 1983, Boggs “slumped” to .325 last season.However, he’s hitting .404 in the streak — after winning a $l-million salary in arbitration last winter.“All I’m trying to do is hit the ball hard,” said Boggs.“I don’t really feel any different now than when I was hitting .280 at the all-star break last year." Boggs hit his 25th double of the year in the first inning, setting up a two-run single by Bill Buckner.After having a single wasted in the third, he broke a 2-2 tie with a two-run double in the fifth, then scored as Jim Rice snapped an 0-for-15 slump with a ground double down the left-field line.White Sox 9 Tigers 4 Carlton Fisk hit his major league-leading 26th home run, matching his career high, and Gene Nelson pitched seven shutout innings for Chicago.Rangers 2 Indians 1 Oddibe McDowell led off the eighth inning with a home run to give Texas the win.McDowell also had two singles.Royals 5 Yankees 4 Hal McRae and Willie Wilson hit bases-loaded singles to fuel a five-run rally in the fifth inning that swept Kansas City to victory.It was only the third loss in 11 games for the Yankees, who are now within 2'/; games of Toronto in the AL East.Both sides closer, but deadline approaching fast NEW YORK (AP) — With a strike deadline two weeks away, it may not be enough that the two sides in baseball's labor talks are coming closer on the issue of projected management losses, the union says.“We re closer together on the figures, but I don’t want to dwell on those.” said Don Fehr.acting executive director of the union.“We may never agree on the numbers, but we still have to find some agreement on a contract.” Facing an Aug.6*deadline imposed by the union, management on Monday lowered — from $155 million to $86 million — its original estimates of how much money baseball stands to lose by 1988.Projected losses for the years preceding 1988 also were lowered.Lee MacPhail, president of the owners’ Player Relations Committee, said the 45-per-eent decrease is a result of revised bookkeeping methods.He said the primary source of the reduction was a decision not to declare player depreciation as an operating loss when a team is sold.“I think this was a step in the right direction,” MacPhail said.“At least we have narrowed the differences between us.” The major area of disagreement is how to divide baseball’s $1.1-billion network television contract.Traditionally, one-third of baseball’s network revenue has been donated to the players’ pension fund.The union would like to continue this practice, while management would not.Last year, baseball donated about $15 million to the players’ pension fund.If union demands prevailed, the yearly donation would jump to about $60 million.PROPOSES CAP The owners’ side has yet to make a proposal on this issue and says it won’t unless it can convince the union there are serious financial problems to solve first.To this end, management has proposed a salary cap.Either management bargainers “don’t want to or they feel they can’t” make a proposal on the pension issue, Fehr said.MacPhail said management would not negotiate the pension issue without also trying to solve other financial problems.“We can’t make specific proposals until we know how the whole of baseball’s financial situation is going to be addressed,” MacPhail said.“We can’t treat the pension separately from the rest of the financial situation.” MacPhail said management still had the proposed salary cap on the table, even though commissioner Peter Ueberroth, a self-proclaimed free enterprise man, said he could not support such an idea.“He (Ueberroth) has said he is not in favor of some things the clubs have on the table, and he’s not in favor of some things the union has on the table,” said MacPhail.Fehr said he still would welcome Ueberroth at the bargaining table as a management representative, but the commissioner has said he will not take sides in negotiations.“It seems strange that an individual brought on board to do something about baseball’s finances has done absolutely nothing in collective bargaining,” Fehr said.“He’s obviously on the management side of the fence, but that doesn’t mean he has to agree with everyone else in management.” tating his inflamed left shoulder.“I’m sad, of course,” Mahler said of his demotion.“But they gave me the opportunity to pitch, so I can’t complain.“I feel with a little bit of luck I might have won some more games.” Mahler, whose contract was ou-trighted to Indianapolis, was uncertain whether he would agree to report to the farm club.“I’m going to speak to (Expos general manager) Murray Cook tomorrow, and I’ll make a decision after that,” he said.Cardinals 4 Giants 3 Run-scoring singles by pinch-hitter Terry Pendleton and Steve Braun in the eighth won it for St.Louis.Reds 5 Mets 1 Dave Concepcion opened the seventh inning with his sixth home run of the season, the first hit off losing pitcher Sid Fernandez, and Cincinnati went on to defeat New York behind Mario Soto’s six-hitter.Soto, 9-11, struck out four and walked none.Fernandez, 3-6, registered a career-high 13 strikeouts while allowing five hits and walking five in 71-3 innings.Phillies 7 Astros 6 Mike Schmidt’s two-out, ninthinning home run off reliever Jeff Heathcock gave Philadelphia the win in a game delayed one hour 46 minutes by rain.Cubs 5 Padres 3 Keith Moreland singled in Davey Lopes from third base with no outs in the eighth inning, snapping a 3-3 tie for Chicago.Lopes set up the game-winning run when he doubled and then stole third, his second steal of the night and 35th of the year._ Pirates 6 Dodgers 3 Rookie shortstop Sammy Khalifa’s first major league home run, a three-run shot, impressed his family and helped Pittsburgh Pirates to their second consecutive win — a rare event this season.Pittsburgh manager Chuck Tanner, his team 23 games behind St.Louis in the NL East, was pleased with the streak.“It’s very seldom we’re able to produce like that two days in a row, ’ ’ Tanner said.“That might be the most runs (11) we’ve scored back-to-back all year.” Expos and Jays ‘healthy’ TORONTO (CP) — Despite posting losses last year, Toronto Blue Jays and Montreal Expos are “healthy and profitable,” says an economics professor who studied the finances of 26 major league baseball clubs.“As I see it, both clubs have a healthy cash flow, and I expect that both will become even healthier,” said Roger Noll, a Stanford University professor commissioned by the players’ association to review the clubs’ 1984 books.The association is using Noll’s report to counter club owners ’ assertions during contract talks that many ballclubs have severe economic problems.The dispute has led to a strike threat by the players, who have set Aug.6 as the deadline for a new collective bargaining agreement.The Toronto Globe and Mail said today the Jays lost $819,000 in 1984, while the Expos were about $5 million in the red.However, Noll said neither figure reflects the true financial picture.Noll said that in the Blue Jays’ case, all but $300,000 was accounted for by amortization of initial roster costs.There also was $200,000 listed for charitable expenses, and interest and other amortization added up to $128,000.JAYS TURN PROFIT “To evaluate a team, it’s appropriate to neglect all that,” he said.“You have to remove all that from losses, and if you do, you’d probably find that Toronto was profitable over all.” expos Total revenue last year for the team was $26 million (U.S.).That included $5.5 million from Canadian television and radio rights, $12 million in net gate receipts, $400,000 from cable television, $2.1 million from concessions and $4.1 million from major league central funds, primarily television income from U.S.networks.“Montreal did relatively poorly last year, but I attribute that primarily to their salary budget,” Noll said.“If they were in a pennant race, they still would have made money.“But their salaries temporarily got out of line.” Last year, Montreal player salaries totalled $13.7 million, but that was reduced this year when Gary Carter and his $2-million contract went to New York Mets.Last year, Toronto paid $8.5 million in salaries, about $500,000 below the league average.Noll said both teams have appreciated greatly in value since their inception.Ali blames racial bigotry BOISE, Idaho (AP) — The mounting effort to ban boxing because of its brutality may be motivated more by racial bigotry than by concern for the safety of fighters, Muhammad Ali said Monday.“Unconsciously, I think it’s a move because blacks dominate it,” Ali, a three-time world heavyweight champion, said.“All the champions and all the contenders are black “The people with the money are these people,” Ali added, pointing to the almost-exclusively white crowd attending his news conference at a local hotel.“They’ve got the money to buy the tickets They've got the TVs.They’ve got the complexion to buy the protection.” Ali, in Boise to help promote a local fight card featuring Joey Keene of Emmett.Idaho, against J.J.Cottrell of Salt Lake City, suggested that the predominate-ly-white American society may, in fact, begrudge black boxers the vast sums of money they can make in the ring.“They sign contracts for $5 million dollars,” said Ali.“Five million dollars is a lot of money.“Two ghetto boys, who can’t read and write, get into the ring — and $5 million.All of a sudden, the whites love us so much they want to protect us.“We don’t want to stop" boxing, Ali said of the black fighters dominating the sport.“The people who don’t like what’s happening want to stop it.” He pointed to controversial boxing promoter Don King and the success King has had in promoting more than 130 title fights as one of the key reasons for the push to ban boxing.“King is worth, after taxes, $50 million cash,” Ali said.“Whatwe need is more white champions and more white contenders who can make a good show “People love to see their own kind on top.” Ted Green quits NHL Oilers EDMONTON (CP) Ted Green, assistant coach of Edmonton Oilers, has left the National Hockey League team to pursue private business interests, coach and general manager Glen Sat her said Monday.Green, who joined the team in September 1981 and helped guide the Oilers to two Stanley Cup championships, will remain with the organization on special assign ment, as designated by Sather.Green was an integral part of the Oiler staff and his contributions will be missed, Sather said.Green said he was offered a good contract but decided to work fulltime with a skate-sharpening firm in which he has an interest.He said the full details of his special assignments have yet to be worked out.“We intend to have those worked out over the summer ” Troubled Penguins to stay in Pittsburgh in 1986 PITTSBURGH (AP) — Pittsburgh Penguins of the National Hockey League will remain in Pittsburgh at least next season “and hopefully for years to come” because of government concessions and improved preseason ticket sales, club owner Edward J De-Bartolo said Monday.DeBartolo, who also owns Pittsburgh Spirit of the Major Indoor Soccer League, has signed a memorandum of agreement with city and Allegheny County officials.The agreement calls for $11.4 million in improvements to the 24-year-old Civic Arena downtown, rent reductions and three annual $550,000 payments to help offset the clubs’ operating expenses.The agreement must be approved by city officials, but Penguins president Paul Martha said DeBartolo “has no reason to think” the approvals won’t be forthcoming, probably by mid-September “It’s not over yet,” Martha said.“We still have major problems with the (10-per-cent city) amusement tax and we haven’t gotten relief there.“But the public and corporate response have been great and we’re looking for record attendance this season.” Mayor Richard Caliguiri said Pittsburgh isn’t the first city to grant concessions to assure the retention of pro sports teams.The teams help create the city’s “big league perception” and result in millions of dollars of annual revenue, he said.OTHERS MADE DEALS “New Orleans, Philadelphia, Seattle, Washington and Denver all have either lost teams or sat down and negotiated better arrangements to keep their teams,” Caliguiri said."Now it’s two down and one to go.” Caliguiri was referring to the uncertain fate of the National League baseball Pirates, who are in finan- cial trouble and may move if purchased by out-of-town owners.Both the Penguins and Spirit had losing records last season and combined to lose a reported $6 million.That prompted DeBartolo to announce at an April 25 news conference in Youngstown, Ohio, he would decide the teams’ fate by mid-July and would consider selling, moving or folding either or both.Hamilton, Ont., which is constructing an 18,000-seat arena, was rumored as the potential new home for the hockey team if there was a move.DeBartolo also set a preseason ticket goal of 10,000 tickets per game per team, and said Monday those goals weren't met.But Martha said the teams have sold about as twice as many tickets each as they had at this point a year ago.BUSINESS KICKS IN “The corporate support has been outstanding,” Martha said.“We went to the corporations and said the sports teams were like the arts, that they needed civic support, and it was forthcoming.” Under the tentative agreement: — The Civic Arena, a multipurpose arena where the two winter pro sports teams play, will undergo an $11.4-million facelift financed by public bonds.A three-stage series of improvements will include new seats, construction of 20 new private luxury boxes and a refurbishing of the Igloo Club, a private club for Penguins’ season ticket holders.— Rents will be reduced $425,000 a year and the city Public Auditorium Authority, which owns the arena, will pay $550,000 over each of the next three years to offset the two teams' operating losses.— The Civic Arena Corp., a DeBartolo subsidiary that operates the Civic Arena for the city, will receive an additional $50,000 a year in parking revenues, although a 25-per-cent parking tax won’t be eliminated.Open champ Lyle to play more in North America SANDWICH, England (AP) — Sandy Lyle, the first Scot in 54 years to win the British Open golf tournament, may be a more frequent competitor in North America."I have a lot of European tournaments left on my schedule,” said Lyle, a pro since he was a teenager."I’d like to play half and half, in America and Europe, but it’s up to my managers." Lyle, 27, who played without particular distinction in previous brief visits on the North American tour, gained his full playing rights earlier this season when he tied for 20th and won $4.496 in the Heritage Classic, That put him beyond the minimum money-winning standards and gave him full membership on the U.S.circuit.His victory Sunday in the 114th renewal of golf's oldest championship, assured him of a position in all the elite invitational events.But Lyle said his playing plans are uncertain — beyond playing on the European RyderCup team that will take on the best from the U.S.in England this fall.He was vague about whether or not he would compete in the American Professional Golfers’ Association cham- pionship next month and made no mention of his assured spot in the World Series of Golf.DECISIONS REMAIN His victory Sunday was produced by a par-70 that gave him a four-round total of 282, one shot better than American Payne Stewart and two better than West German Bernhard Langer and Australian David Graham, the co-leaders starting the round “It won’t really change things for me,” Lyle said.“I’ll just go along as before.” But there are a lot of decisions remaining.Lyle will defend his title in the Kapalua Invitational in Hawaii in November.Then he and-or his managers must decide about certain invitations to represent Europe in team championships in Hawaii and Scotland later this year, and represent Scotland in the World Cup competition in November.And.too, he’s probably in line for invitations to the World Match Play, the Lancome, Japanese and Australian and South African events.All are on the schedule in the next few months.I m still the same person," Lyle said.“Winning the Open is a great honor, but I m still the same person Sports The KECORO—Tuesday.July 23.1985—9 —___ KOCOtu Summer athletics school in progress despite political battles By William Harris SHERBROOKE — In 1984, the Club d’Athlétisme de Sherbrooke's Stage Estivald'Athletisme, a summer athletics school for students aged six to 17, attracted a grand total of 115 young athletes.This year, because of a variety of complications, the number of participants has dropped to about 55.But program co-ordinator Daniel Quirion isn’t discouraged by the numerical drop.“Considering the number of close calls we’ve had this summer, we’re lucky to still be breathing,” he says.In a recent interview, Quirion ex-pained that the program, which had grown accustomed to receiving a relatively large federal go- vernment grant each summer, was totally cut off this year by Brian Mulroney’s Conservatives.“The worst part of the whole affair was that we didn’t know what the government’s final decision would be until June 23, which was extremely close to our proposed opening date,” said Quirion.“Usually we send out brochures and information sheets to local high schools and elementary schools, but nothing could be done this year because of the uncertainty of our financial situation.” DESPERATE SEARCH Quirion said that once the bad news had rolled in about the grant, the Club d’Athletisme quickly began a desperate search for spon- sors.Two groups eventually came through with flying colors : the Université de Sherbrooke, and the Sherbrooke town council.“The town helped us out financially, and the University graciously donated all of their sports facilities,” said Quirion."Because of their generousity and concern we were able to run the school, even with decreased numbers.Most of the students we have this year have been here before, which can be directly related to our inability to advertise." Now that the initial financial crisis is over, however, Quirion said that things are looking up for the program, as an effort is now being made to insure the self-sufficiency ÜBI* RECORD PHOTO GRANT SIMEON Students at the Club d'Athlétisme's summer school do everything from basic exercises.of the school in future years.“We don’t ever want to be dependent on government grants again.” stressed Quirion.FOUR GROUPS The Stage Estival d'Athletisme basically introduces youngsters to the world of athletics, focusing primarily on track and field events.“We divide our kids into four general groups, based on age," said Quirion."The first group, for athletes aged six to nine, is known as animation’.These kids play games, throw things around, run, and basically have a good time, as they are much too young to start developing techniques.” The second group, according to Quirion.includes students aged 10 and 11, and is known as initiation'.“This group is taught the difference between the various events, like shotput, javelin, and so on,” he said.“It’s basically an introductory group.” “The third group, for athletes aged 12 and 13, is known as ‘development’,” said Quirion.“This is the age when the proper techniques are stressed for the first time, although very slowly and progressively.” PERFECTION The last group, for students from 14 to 17, is known as ‘perfection’.In this group, the more mature athletes are able to concentrate on the particular events in which they show promise.According to Quirion, the primary goal of the school is simply to promote physical fitness and good health among the region’s young people.“We’re not trying to create little champions here, although our facilities and coaching staff are certainly of the highest quality,” he said.“The kids who show particular potential are always encouraged to join the Club d’Athletisme de Sherbrooke, which can offer a full year training program, rather than a mere six weeks per summer.” .to the hurdles and

up her track career and return to her homeland.“She would be well-advised to stop running immediately and return home to South Africa to rethink her future,” Frank Budd told the London Sun two days after Zola’s loss to Mary Slaney in the so-called Olympics rematch at Crystal Palace stadium.Frank Budd, a 53-year-old farmer, was among the crowd who watched Zola finish fourth Saturday in the 3,000-metre race, won easily by Slaney, the former Mary Decker.After the race, Zola, now a British citizen, said she knew her father was in the stands but that they had not spoken to each other.British press reports claimed father and daughter had fallen out over family matters before the Los Angeles Olympics last summer in which Slaney and Budd tangled in a now infamous clash of legs during the 3,000-metre final.The collision ended the medal hopes of both runners and the race Saturday was their first since the incident.Frank told The Sun that Zola now is a “very unhappy little girl.” “Surely it’s obvious things aren’t working out for her as an athlete and she shouldn’t keep on being pushed into races she cannot possi- bly cope with.” Meanwhile, Zola was planning to ignore her father’s advice by competing over 800 metres at an international track and field meet tonight in Edinburgh.Britons Steve Cram, the new 1,500-metre world record holder.and Steve Ovett, whose previous mark Cram smashed, are among the other leading runners in Edinburgh.Cram is to compete in the 1,000 metres, while Ovett competes against Sydney Maree, John Walker and Mike Boit in the mile.Gunslingers still slinging SAN ANTONIO, Tex.(AP) -San Antonio Gunslingers wih play in 1986 despite management’s decision to waive the entire United States Football Lea gue team, general manager Roger Gill says.The team front office announ ced the waiver of all 46 players late Monday, just minutes before a deadline for owner Clinton Manges to make good on two overdue paycheques.Manges failed to make the payrolls by the 5 p.m.deadline set by an arbitrator for the USFL Players’ Association.The arbitrator’s ruling would have ordered the players on the USFL waiver wire at 5 p.m.if the deadline were not met.“Our intentions are to play in the 1986 season,” Gill said.“We’ve got a year to prepare.” Gill said Manges still intends to pay the players for paycheques due June 11 and 25, but he did not know when.He would not say why the team decided to waive the players.Releasing the players, he said, would allow them to join a National Football League team “If they don't make it with another team, we’ll give them a chance to play with us,” Gill said.“As soon as we fulfill our payroll obligations, we’ll start to pursue players.” But Jeff Leiding, a linebacker who showed up at team offices late Monday, said it is too late for any players to get picked up by any NFL teams.Those teams, he said, are already in training camps.“Now I know what it feels like to be a steel worker,” Leiding said.“I’ve been laid off.” Manges faced identical payroll problems in early June, but he made good on two overdue pay-cheques just hours before a June 8 deadline.Swimming a change from accountancy for Asmuth Coach leaves Concordia ‘prison’ MONTREAL (CP) — Mike Hickey, head coach of women’s basketball at Concordia University for the last 10 hears, has resigned to accept a similar post at Ryerson Polytechnical Institute in Toronto.Hickey accepted a one-year contract and has a verbal agreement for another three years.Financial terms of the contract were not disclosed.Hickey, a 36-year-old native of Hempstead.N.Y., is one of the most successful college basketball coaches in this country.Hickey’s departure comes with the Concordia intercollegiate athletic department in turmoil in the wake of much controversy related to the men’s basketball team having been placed on pro bation for one year last Decern ber for having paid players in student-work programs for work never performed.“A lot of people have said I’m doing myself a great favor to get out (of Concordia) in case things get worse,” said Hickey."Whenl told pepl in the department I was leaving, they weren't sad but glad for me.“It was as if I was geting out of prison.” MAGOG (RP)— Paul Asmuth, the 27-year-old accountant from San Francisco who won the 42-kilometre Traversée du Lac Mem-phremagog international swim on Sunday, might have had some mo-nitary figures on his mind as he crossed the finish line.Asmuth beat his previous 1983 record with a new time of eight hours, twenty-nine minutes and thirty-one seconds.Breaking the record gave Asmuth an extra $2000 pocket money over the regular grand prize of $7000.Averaging 86 strokes-per-minute on the crawl, Asmuth said that he was better prepared for this year’s race.“Last year I wasn’t in shape and my shoulders were hurting," he said in an interview after the event.“This year, I was able to keep driving myself.” “After two or three hours I ran out of blood sugar and I began to get tired, but towards the end I picked up,” added Asmuth, who managed to stop briefly every 30 minutes for glucose.“I must have Scoreboard BASEBALL
