your name won’t go into the hat for the no-frills meal.” Visits are illegal, says commission QUEBEC (CP) — The Quebec Legal Services Commission has concluded that visits by inspectors to the homes of welfare recipients are unconstitutional.In a memorandum to community legal aid centres, the commission says the visits, instituted recently by Labor Minister Pierre Paradis, are contrary to the social assistance law and are in violation of the Canadian and Quebec charters on individual rights.The memorandum says there is nothing in the social assistance law that provides for a departure from the right to privacy and the inviolability of the home.The commission, established in 1972 to oversee the legal aid service in Quebec, says a welfare recipient who denies entry to an inspector is merely exercising his or her right.Paradis announced recently that the government was hiring 150 additional welfare inspectors to visit recipients at home to check on “erroneous files” and to weed out cheats who were defrauding the system.Three die in gruesome roller coaster accident EDMONTON (CP)-An area of West Edmonton Mall usually filled with the laughter and delighted screams of ride-goers was silent Sunday after a gruesome roller-coaster accident that killed three people.At least 19 other passengers and bystanders were injured or overcome with shock after a car on the Minderbender triple-loop roller-coaster in the giant mall’s popular Fantasyland amusement section lurched off the track Saturday and slammed into a concrete pillar.Two men and a woman died in the accident.Another man, Rodney Chyko, was in serious but stable condition in hospital Sunday with two broken legs and chest injuries.Most other injuries, some among witnesses, were minor or consisted of shock.Police would not release the names of those killed.But Darren Mandrusiak said Sunday his cousin, Tony Mandrusiak, 24, who was studying to be a paramedic, was one of the people who died in the accident.And he said his cousin’s fiance was the woman killed.Fantasyland, one of the mall’s bigger draws, was locked and its entrances shrouded in black plastic Sunday, while police questioned operators and workers who maintained tlje stomach-churning ride.BUSIER SUNDAY But retailers said it was busier that usual for a Sunday at the mall — a $l-billion complex that combines 800 retail stores with an indoor amusement park, manmade lake complete with waves, National Hockey League-sized ice rink and bird and animal exhibits.Some merchants indicated they felt the accident could draw some curiosity-seekers to the mall.Visitors to Fantasyland watched in horror Saturday as accident victims were brutally hurled against concrete pillars before falling to the floor 10 metres below.The roller-coaster is equipped with restraining devices.Gord Turtle.29, of Edmonton, and his friends were thinking of going for a ride and watched as a train of four cars filled with 16 riders climbed out of the second loop and picked up speed going into the last circle when the last two cars started fishtailing.89 THUNDWSTOftM TRACIS CATCHPAW nUNCBSI BUZAHTM RUiMENTARY Weather, page 2 Sherbrooke Monday, June 16, 1986 40 cents By Felicity Munn MONTREAL (CP) — A rags-to-riches story that seemed almost too good to be true for the Lavi-gueur family has turned into a bitter courtroom battle over $7.6 million in lottery winnings.The saga began when unemployed Montreal laborer Jean-Guy Lavigueur and his family won a $7.6-million lottery jackpot in March — just one week before La-vigueur's unemployment benefits were due to expire.But the unique twist that gave the story the stuff of a FrankCapra movie occurred when the winning ticket was returned to the family by a stranger — himself a welfare recipient — who found it inside a wallet Lavigueur had lost on the street.The f’elighted Lavigueurs widower Jean Guy, 51, his children Sylvie, 19, Yves, 18, and Michel, 15, and his brother-in-law Jean-Marie Daudelin, 44 — celebrated their lost-and-found fortune by cutting 28-year-old William Murphy in for an equal $1.2-miliion share of the Lotto 6-49 windfall.FATES TURN Just as the Lavigueurs began U> settle into their happy ending, the fates that had been so kind turned on them as the dream disintegra ted into family-splitting legal ae tion.A third daughter 16-year-old Louise who became estranged from her father a lew days before flic March 29 drawing, launched a lawsuit claiming she was defrauded of her fair share of the jackpot.Saying her father locked her out of the family home on March 24, Louise said she was unable to pay her weekly $2 slake in the family’s lollery pool that week.Her suit probably won’t be heard until next year, hut legal wrangling lias kept the case in the courts and in the limelight.Louise won a court order freezing $l .:i million of the winnings pending her suit to establish her claim that she is owed one-sixth of the jackpot and last week, father and daughter spent three days swapping nasty verbal swipes before a packed courtroom audience.USED DRUGS Lavigueur testified Louise used drugs and painted her as irresponsible and ungrateful because she had turned down the $100,000 he offered her after the win.Louise said her father told her after he struck it rich that she might as well buy a funeral notice because, as far as he was concerned, she was dead — testimony which sent a murmur through spectators.Lavigueur — who did not deny had no right to the money because she hadn’t paid into the family lottery pool the week of the win.The one rule of the pool was that “you don’t pay, you don’t win,’’ and everyone involved knew that, he said.But Louise said she couldn’t pay that week because she had been refused entry to the family home a few days earlier.She argued she was a permanent partner in tfie pool and had regularly paid her weekly $2 prior to that week.The rift in the family widened after Louise’s siblings testified she caused their father a lot of worry and that she had stayed away from home voluntarily.Lavigueur lotto case may not be settled until the accusation — insisted Louise Chamber concert pleasing The chamber orchestra

proposal ousted by Grits South Africa readies for new wave of protest By Paul Mooney QUEBEC (CP) — The Quebec Liberal Party ducked a debate on language policy Sunday when a controversial motion on the language of commercial signs in the province was withdrawn at the party’s general council.The motion, which would have approved the use of French-only signs unless permission to use a second language was recieved from the government, was withdrawn by delegates from the riding of Abi-tibi-Ouest.The council, the party’s highest decision-making body between conventions, reaffirmed its approval of bilingual signs, contrary to the French-language charter passed by the former Parti Québécois government in 1977.Quoting a recent opinion poll, Premier Robert Bourassa said 88 per cent of Quebecers agree with Liberal party policy that a second language should be allowed on commercial signs as long as French is predominant.“Before going any further than that, we want to see what the Quebec Court of Appeal rules on the matter,” Bourassa told reporters.“But it’s clear the consensus in Quebec is with our policy.” BACK MOTION Delegates supported a motion approving the use of another language on commercial signs, providing French “occupies a place of superior importance to any other language.” The delegates from Abitibi-Ouest said they agreed to withdraw their motion for now, leaving open the possibility they will raise the issue again in the fall when the government is expected to conduct a full-blown debate on language.Quebec Superior Court has ruled that the sign-language provisions of Quebec’s language charter, Bill 101, violate freedom of expression provisions of the provincial Charter of Rights and Freedoms.The case is now before the appeal court.During his seven months in power, Bourassa has used the expected courtruling to side-step a debate on the language issue.But if the Court of Appeal finds that unilingual signs do not violate the Quebec charter, he will come under increasing pressure from the English-speaking comunity to amend Bill 101 and approve bilingual signs — a measure which will arouse the ire of nationalist forces in Quebec.In his closing speech to the two-day meeting, Bourassa told the5(M) delegates he will not sit idly by and watch the economy damaged by a province-wide construction strikt'^ scheduled to begin today.During a special cabinet meeting today, Labor Minister Pierre Paradis will present a report and make recommendations on how to.end the conflict.Bourassa said the cabinet will decide if any possibili ty of a negotiated settlement re mains.“But we now have some 75 construction projects underway in the Montreal region alone " Bourassa said.“They represent about $2.5 billion of investment.“Given the importance of the construction sector in the econo- ded and watch it jeopardized.” Construction projects have been hit by a series of rotating strikes and lock-outs since early last month.Employers rejected the latest proposals by unions Friday.The government can decree contract conditions for several months or longer, or impose a moratorium on stikes and lock-outs while negotiations continue.Bourassa said the federal Liberal Party's decision to support many of Quebec's demands for consti-tutional negotiations is a “positive JOHANNESBURG (AP) - The death toll under the nationwide state of emergency rose to 22 on Sunday, as police prepared for what they expect to be a test of strength with blacks commemorating the 10th anniversary of Soweto riots.A journalist reported that police detained more than 200 people, including children, attending a church service near Cape Town.Troops with rifles leaped into a church yard near Johannesburg where Anglican Bishop Desmond Tutu was preaching, but made no arrests.The government, meanwhile, denounced as “terror of the worst kind” a car-bombing Saturday night in the Indian Ocean port city of Durban.The blast killed two white women and an Indian woman and injured 69 people.Leon Mellet, chief of the government Bureau for Information, said 15 of the injured remained in hospital on Sunday.He blamed the outlawed African National Congress, the main black guerrilla group fighting to end apartheid.The information bureau also reported the deaths of seven more blacks on Sunday.It said four were moderates killed by militants and three were shot by riot police.HOLD SERVICES The bureau insisted today would be a normal day despite plans by blacks to stay away from jobs and hold services to commemorate the July 16,1976, start of riots in Soweto, the huge black township outside Johannesburg.Security forces blocked the main highways into Soweto on Sunday, turning back white reporters and photographers.Rapport, an Afrikaans-language Sunday newspaper and government supporter, said blacks plan JOHANNESBURG (AP) — “For goodness sake, somebody, listen to us.” That anguished cry came from Desmond Tutu 10 years ago when the Anglican cleryman, now a bishop and Nobel Peace Prize laureate, learned of the bloody uprising in Soweto, Johannesburg’s vast black ghetto It was June 16, 1976, a day that irrevocably changed the nature of South Africa’s political conflict.It launched a cycle of violence that continues unabated and the appeals and demands of Tutu and other blacks have grown louder and bolder each year.Many demands remain unmet despite a decade of increased defiance, and June 16 has become a symbolic date for the antiapartheid movement.The government, recognizing its significance, imposed a ban that started June 4 and will last until June 30 on all gatherings linked to the 10th anniversary.Then, this past Thursday it declared a national state of emergency, rounding up anti-apartheid activists by the hundreds in predawn raids.Tutu responded this time as well: “Only intervention by the outside world can avoid Armageddon.What is the outside world wai-tins for?” Gji Monday, millions of blacks mass marches on government headquarters in Pretoria and widespread riots and invasions of white districts.At Elsie’s River, a mixed-race township east of Cape Town, police arrested more than 200 people at a church service, a journalist on the Cape Times newspaper said.The journalist asked to remain anonymous.Troops leaped into a church yard in Evaton, a black district south of Johannesburg, where Tutu was preaching at an outdoor mass.IGNORES SOLDIERS Tutu ignored the soldiers as they encircled him and the small congregation.“I pray that tomorrow will be peaceful and that we will observe this great day with the dignity it deserves,” Tutu said.“For our sakes, let us all show restraint.” The troops withdrew as abruptly as they arrived.The government has banned gatherings to commemorate the anniversary, but Mellet said "bona fide church services” today will be permitted.He did not elaborate.Some companies, including the Anglo-American mining conglomerate and international oil companies, declared today a full or partial holiday.The Soweto uprising of June 16, 1976, touched off nearly a year of violence in which 575 blacks were killed.About 1,700 people, most of them black, have been killed since a new wave of violence began in September 1984, in an effort to end apartheid.In other developments, the South African Catholic Bishops Conference protested the detention of at least five priests among the mote than 1,000 people held without charge under the state of emergency.plan to stay away from work and school to commemorate the riot's victims.They also will ask that June 16 be declared a public holiday and mobilize for the next stage of the campaign for black rights.The anniversary strike has the support from all major anti-' apartheid groups, including powerful labor and political coalitions forged in the aftermath of Soweto.And it is endorsed by the African National Congress, the outlawed guerrilla movement, which was re-energized by a crackdown that propelled thousands of young blacks into exile to be trained as insurgents.“Until 1976, much of the opposition was timid,” said Dr.Nthato Motlana, a Soweto physician and veteran anti-apartheid leader.“The uprising shocked white South Africa in a way nothing before or since has done; it scarred the psyche of all South Africans.’’.“It was a spontaneous explosion of emotion that came to mean something very important in the minds of black people: that they could set the country in flames.’.’ On the morning of June 16,1976,-an estimated 15,000 black students converged outside a Soweto junior high school to protest being taught half of their lessons in Afrikaans, the language of the ruling Afrikaner whites.Stanley, meet Wellington KI (OKI) PI KKY HKATON — m :± .**-**# Conn Smythe trophy winner Patrick Roy of Montreal Canadiens was

Morris FREDERICTON (CP) —After 25 years in the spotlight, can Richard Hatfield switch it off?The 55-year-old Conservative premier has been in the light of public scrutiny longer than any other Canadian politician of his rank, and he has heard rumors of his resignation many times.But they seem more vigorous lately, and come from a wide variety of sources.The opposition Liberals wonder whether the premier plans to celebrate the 25th anniversary of his first election to the legislature — in a byelection on June 19, 1961 — by bowing out of politics.Liberal leader Frank McKenna says some Tory ministers have told him Hatfield is leaving.Political columnist Dalton Camp, a personal friend of Hatfield’s, said in a recent article on the resignation of B.C.Premier Bill Bennett that Hatfield's foes are a majority in New Brunswick and they want him to go.Camp added Hatfield’s friends feel the premier, now in his 16th year in office, has earned the right to do whatever he wants.WISHFUL?Some say resignation speculation — a regular phenomenon since a controversy over alleged drug use by Hatfield hit the front pages in October 1984 — is wishful thinking.“Hatfield continues to tell his loyalists, his close friends, that he has no intention of leaving,” says local commentator Art Doyle.“You have to take Hatfield at his word — that’s the mistake the Opposition and the media often make.When he says he’s going to stay until he’s defeated by the people, he really means it." For his part, Hatfield is as grumpy as ever with pesky reporters seeking comment on his political future.“Not again,” he sighed recently.“There hasn’t been a lot of talk, only you guys and gals have been talking among yourselves — now be honest about it.Don’t ask these silly questions.Silly questions get silly answers.” But before he turned away, Hat- field mused briefly on his 25 years in politics.“If I had it to do over again, I wouldn't change anything," he said with a grin.“It has been a wonderful life in politics and I enjoy it very much.” Health trouble has stimulated recent rumors, Hatfield has been suffering from chronic laryngitis and recurring bronchitis.He was out of the legislature for most of May, and since his return he has been quiet.CONTROL VOICE “I have to be careful in using my voice,” he said.“The doctor allowed me to speak on condition I try to control the pitch and volume of my voice.” The provincial Conservative party prompted further speculation when it reserved the Aitken Centre in Fredericton for its annual meeting in November.The meeting normally draws no more than 1,500 delegates, but the centre can accommodate 6,000, enough for a leadership convention.As Hatfield approaches the end of his 25th year in politics, opinions are divided on his record.“I think if you could look as far ahead as you can look back the final judgment on Hatfield will be that he was one of the more, if not the most, seminal and creative and influential premiers in New Brunswick’s history,” says Camp.But Doyle, who has a long association with the New Brunswick Li- berals, says Hatfield’s personal problems — the drug controversy and criticism of his wide-ranging travels — may overshadow his accomplishments.Hatfield was acquitted in January 1985 of drug possession after a small quantity of marijuana was found in his luggage.And in April, it was revealed that New Brunswick Tories paid about $8,000 for a trip Hatfield made to a luxurious West German spa."He has given New Brunswick the reputation of being the political dogpatch of Canada," says Doyle."He has caused a lot of embarrassment especially in Ottawa where the joke these days is, ‘When Richard Hatfield calls, tell him I’m out.”’ Baby mercy killing report is misguided TORONTO (CP) — A “grossly misguided" report calling for legalized mercy killing of seriously defective newborn babies violates the policy of the Canadian Pediatric Society and was made without ‘consideration for the value of a life, opponents of the report say.•:The independent report, Withholding Treatment from Defective Newborn Children, recom-feended that rather than allowing jjuch children to die slowly through Starvation or dehydration — as sometimes happens outside the law society should establish legal •guidelines permitting doctors to jdrid lives painlessly with the pa-fênts’ consent.Dr.John Watts, chairman of the Canadian Pediatric Society’s bioethics committee, called the report horrifying and grossly misguided.The society’s executive members met last week on the issue of treatment of defective newborns and produced a policy statement that says “the use of painkillers in order to hasten death is forbidden and the use of sedatives to keep a child asleep so it doesn't have to eat is also forbidden.” “I recognize there are times when you can’t preserve life,” Watts said.“But I don't think anyone can kill a baby because it doesn’t meet certain criteria.’ .The report, written by Joseph Magnet and Eike-Hemmer Kluge, like a book of the same name published last year by Magnet, a University of Ottawa law professor.PICKED CAREFULLY Watts said the report has chosen interviews carefully, made generalizations and then not proved or justified them in any way.Executive members of the Canadian Association for Community Living, a group representing 40,000 mentally retarded people in Canada, called the report horrifying at its general meeting Saturday.Patrick Worth, 31, of Burlington, Ont., said he is living proof that doctors, judges and parents can’t properly judge human potential.When he was born with a serious disease, doctors told his parents he wouldn’t live to reach the age of five.They recommended that his life be ended because its quality would be very poor.“I don’t think it is right to allow a handicapped baby to starve to death,” Worth said.“But I don’t think you eliminate the problem by eliminating the individual.” Kluge, co-author of the report and a philosophy professor at the University of Victoria, said in a telephone interview from his Victoria home that the report wasn’t aimed at mentally handicapped people.“It talks about babies who have no chance of a decent quality of life,” Kluge said.” He said few of the few hundred severely handicapped and defective newborn babies in Canada each year would face the possibility of having their life ended.Residents defy order to move as volcano eruption threatens MURILLO, Colombia (AP) — More than 5,000 people living in the shadow of the Nevado del Ruiz volcano refused to leave their homes Sunday, defying an order by the government.Volcano expert Eduardo Parra said seismic activity beneath the volcano, which has been spewing ash 400 metres into the air with increasing frequency in recent days, indicates the 5,000-metre Nevado del Ruiz could soon erupt.An eruption last November set off a huge mudslide that roared down a canyon and buried the town of Armero, killing about 23,000 people.Nevado del Ruiz is 25 kilometres northeast of Armero and 100 kilometres west of Bogota, the capital.On Friday, the government ordered everyone within 10 kilometres of the volcano to evacuate.Murillo, with about 5,500 residents, is 10 kilometres east of Nevado del Ruiz.Only about 50 residents obeyed the evacuation order, townspeple Said.They reported the government informed them Sunday they would not be forced to leave.Army troops moved into Murillo over the weekend to prevent possible looting.Parra, the director of Colombia’s National Volcano Centre, said in an interview published Sunday in the newspaper El Tiempo seismic activity at Nevado del Ruis has been increasing in frequency since January.Murillo residents are accustomed.however, to the volcano’s rumbles.“I’m not going any place.If I do, someone will steal my cattle and my crops,” Emilio Aguilar said.Another farmer, Heriberto Villa-lobs, said, “I’ve got eight children.“If I leave, where am I going to work?Where will I get money to feed my children and buy them clothes?From the government?"You can forget about that.No, sir.I’m not going.I’ll take my chances with that volcano.” —____faei Keanu Georg* M«cL*r#n, Publisher .M9-9511 Charles Bury, Editor.569-6345 Lloyd G.Schelb, Advertising Manager.569-9S2S Mark

The Townships —____«yj inxura Construction trades tango: Bourassa cabinet may make its move today By Linda Drouin MONTREAL (CPi - Construction unions ami contractors arc bracing for a long confrontation as a Sunday deadline elapsed with no progress in negotiations aimed at heading off a general strike in the peak construction season.The association representing l.r>,(XH) contractors rejected the latest proposal from the unions Friday, opening the way for 100.000 construction workers to carry out their threat of a provincewide unlimited walkout today.The two sides have been unable to reach an agreement since April 30 when the provincial decree setting out their salaries and working conditions expired.Premier Robert Bourassa said Saturday his cabinet will meet today to decide what action to take amid reports that he is considering banning further strikes and lockouts in the industry for three months to get a negotiated settlement.The two sides have not been able to hammer out an agreement to gether since 1979, forcing the government to regulate conditions in the industry.The Quebec Federation of Labor and the Quebec Building Trades Council represent 72 per cent of the province's 100,000 construction workers.Another 20,000, members of the Confederation of National Trade Unions are expected to join the walkout.FORCE INTERVENTION Claude Daoust, president of the 15,000-member Association des entrepreneurs en construction du Québec, which represents employers, called the latest union proposal a ‘ provocation” aimed at forcing the government to intervene in the conflict “They're also provoking violence on the job site because everyone involved in construction has realized in the past week that workers and management both are fed up with the loss of money involved with strikes and days lost," he said.The contractors want more flexible working hours, including a six-day work week and the abolition of some premiums such as those for travel between jobs and for work at heights.They're proposing a three-percent ra'se for industrial construction workers and a salary freeze for residential workers, as well as lower ratios of experienced laborers to beginners on building sites, They say the concessions they ' re asking for will place Quebec’s industry on the same footing as other Canadian provinces.WANT RAISE The construction workers want a three-year contract with a five-per-cent raise the first year, a reduced work week, a fifth week of vacation and pension improve- ments Caught in between are an esti mated 15,000 to 20,000 homeowners who were expecting to move into new houses in July.The deadlines have been pushed back several months by 11 days of rotating strikes and lockouts since the si\ week-old dispute started.Laborers in Quebec earn $13 an hour, carpenters $17 an hour and pipefitters and electricians $17.NO an hour.Jean Paul Rivard, director general of the construction wing of the Quebec Federation of Labor, said the average salary in the in dustry is $15 an hour and the ave rage worker puts m just ovei UKio hours a year.“1 would say that only lOpercent earn a good living, said Roger l!i roux, for many years a construction worker and now a business agent tor the Laborers InternatiO-' nul Union of North America, a union affiliated with the Building Trades Council."Everybody in the province is pay mg now because so much work is being done on the black market," Giroux said in an inter view.The province's building industry' handles about $11 billion worth pf construction projects a year.Builders using golf tournament, baseball trip tor strike therapy SHERBROOKE Eastern Townships home builders are apparently taking a casual ap proach to the strike which begins paralyzing their industry today.With an estimated 2000 construction sites in the region deserted since midnight as part of a province-wide strike in the construction trades, the home builders enjoyed their annual golf tournament Friday, un h a m p e r e d b y t h e n o n productive new reality swirling around them The builders are members of the Association provinciale des Constructeurs d'llahitutions du Quebec, repion Est rie.the K.T.braneh of the Quebee housing contractors association, and the Association de la Construction des Cantons de l'Est, the E T.construction association.The tournament Friday at Magog s Venise golt club was followed by a banquet.The builders seem intent on sticking to their club activities.Next on their list is a baseball excursion to watch the National League Expos play the Pittsburgh Pirates Thursday ________ Two Brome Lake cops seek jury trial Hold-up at the Elmwood: Two injured by pair of thugs with knives COWANSVILLE (JM) — Brome Lake Consts.Denis Brazeau and Peter Stone pleaded not guilty Friday and defence lawyer Tom Walsh elected jury trial for his clients in a case of alleged police brutality.Brazeau faces three counts of assault causing bodily harm and one of illegal confinement.Stone is charged with one count of assault causing bodily harm, one of illegal confinement, and one of theft.Crown attorney Henry Key-serlingk told the court he was acting for colleague Michel Ayotte who is in charge of the case.He and Walsh agreed the preliminary hearings be continued, for the form, to June 20.One active member of the Brome Lake police Force, Pierre Laplante, and three former members, Alyre Thireau, Mario Beaumont, and Paul Roy will be arraigned on similar charges June 20.It is expected Ayotte and the various defence lawyers will be able to determine dates for preliminary hearings and obtain the services of an out-of district judge.Thireau, Beaumont, and Roy, were cited to jury trial on April 23, following a preliminary hearing into the alleged beating and abandoning of David Allen Gauthier in Knowlton on March 1, 1982.Their trial dates will be set when the fall term of the District of Bedford assizes open in Granby on Sept.4.Hyper-aggressive councillor guilty of assault SHERBROOKE — As soon as Magog town councillor Fernand Roy was found guilty Thursday of assaulting fellow alderman Roger Gagné and Mayor Antonio Laçasse, he announced he will go after the mayor again — this time at the ballot box.Roy was convicted following a private prosecution by Gagné, Laçasse and a second councillor of a case local Crown prosecutors wouldn’t touch.The conviction stemmed from incidents following a town council meeting November 4.Roy was acquitted of a third assault charge in the same incident when Sessions Court Judge Michel Côté determined that fellow councillor Denis Laçasse was not victimized.During discussions at the end of a council meeting, testimony showed that Roy made a point by sticking Gagné in the stomach with his finger several times.He also twisted Mayor Laçasse s arm to get him to listen.Both victims said they felt pain; Laçasse also claimed that his sue-dine jacket had been damaged to the tune of $150.Judge Côté ordered Roy to keep the peace and pay Laçasse $75 to get his jacket repaired.Roy said he still has the best interests of Magog citizens at heart and added that he will seek the Magog mayoralty in November’s municipal election.Four charged after confrontation with bosses SHERBROOKE — Four men will appear in court July 11 to face charges stemming from a hostile confrontation with their bosses Thursday.Daniel Cyr, 25, chose trial by jury after he was accused of threatening André Michaud with death, assaulting Michaud and René La-pelletiêre and stealing the keys of a motor vehicle.Robert Cyr, 22, pleaded not guil- ty to charges of assaulting Lapelle-tiêre and interfering with Michaud.Mario Maurice, 26, and Luc Rousseau, 19, pleaded not guilty to a mischief charge.Sessions Court Judge Michel Côté released the four from cells but ordered them to avoid any communicaiton with their alleged victims and to stay away from the property of Lami-Ski, a Lennox- ville manufacturing company coowned by the victims.Lami-Ski’s workers have been locked out in a labor dispute.Three of the four accused are employed by the company.Police described the fourth as a sup porter.The four were arrested Thursday at an Ascot Township camping ground where one of the owners is a resident.Whitehead faces more burglary charges COWANSVILLE (JM) —William “Bill” Whitehead, 21, of Knowlton, appeared before a justice of the peace in cells Friday when he was charged with five counts of breaking and entering and theft from dwellings in the Sutton-Abercorn area.Whitehead reappeared in Sessions Court later and defence la- wyer Claude Hamann elected jury trial.The preliminary and bail hearings were continued, for the form, to June 17.Whitehead earlier pleaded not guilty to charges of breaking and entering, theft of jewels valued at $10,000 in Knowlton, possession of stolen goods, car theft, use of an offensive weapon in a crime of vio- lence, illegal confinement, and robbery with violence on June 4.He was remanded in the public interest pending a bail hearing after Judge Bernard Legaré upheld the Crown’s request based on the public interest.Hamann waived Whitehead’s rights to his bail hearing in that case on June 13, and had it continued to June 17.LENNOXVILLE — Police continue to search today for two “extremely violent”, knife-wielding men who beat up the barmaid and a customer at the Elmwood Hotel Sunday evening, making off with over $1000 in casu, leaving one of their victims hospitalized and then burglarizing his home.A series of roadblocks set up by Lennoxville-Ascot.Sherbrooke and provincial police failed to turn up the robbers following the incident, which took place at about 7:30 p.m.Police say the two men.travelling in a blue-and white 1972 Ford Maverick, entered the hotel’s front office, each brandishing a large knife, and ordered barmaid Thérèse Rodrigue to hand over the day’s receipts.The two were apparently molesting the woman, leading passer-by Grant Smith to intervene.Smith, a former Lennoxville police chief, then became the robbers’ main target.He was severely beaten before the pair fled in the Maverick.HIT HOME TOO The two men then apparently went to Smith's empty home, which they broke into and burgled.Smith was taken to the Sherbrooke Hospital, then transferred to the Sherbrooke University hospital centre (CHUSi because of the serious nature of his injuries — a serious head injury as well as cuts and bruises.Meanwhile, the slightly injured Rodrigue looked at police photos, trying to identify the hold-up men.Police say both the suspects are between 25 and 30 years of age.One of the men is about 5 feet, 10 inches tall, of medium build, has a tattoo on his left arm and broken-off top front teeth.He was wearing jeans.VACANT ÜLUReau Lennoxville's Elmwood Hotel was the scene of a vicious beating and robbery Sunday night.The second suspect stands 5 feet, short, curly hair and is heavier-9 inches tall, “speaks very good built .He was wearing a green and French,” has a moustache and white print shirt outside his jean%.Bedford school board cutting in wrong places, says angry Heroes parent By Merritt Clifton COWANSVILLE — District of Bedford director-general Jim Bis-sell and his top staff “should resign as being poor administrators,” says Heroes Memorial Elementary School parents’ committee member Murray Dover.Further, Dover argues, the whole District of Bedford Protestant Regional School Board should be put under trusteeship by Education Minister Claude Ryan.According to Dover, gross mismanagement rather than provincial budget cutbacks are the real reason for the district’s present economic crisis.Reviewing the new District of Bedford budget, approved last Tuesday night, Dover is unimpressed.“As parents,” he states, “my wife and I are very disgusted.Bis-sell and the school board are more interested in (themselves) than in educating children.” Specifically, Dover says, “They’re not cutting in the right places.They’re top-heavy with administration,” as a province-wide survey of administrative costs recently confirmed, “but they’re laying off the cleaning lady.They haven’t cut one administrator.” KEEP PRIVILEGES “They’re cutting day-care kin dergarten, they’re cutting bilingual education, but Jim Bissell and (assistant director) Richard Staples still have all their privileges.They did everything but touch themselves.They're getting over $125,000 just with their two salaries.” Travel allowances for administrators and board members were reduced in the new Bedford bud get.Otherwise the cuts have mostly ntlMtd th* diitrict’o top level.“With these budget cuts from the province,” Dover continued, “the government is telling me the school board has abused their money, to the tune of about $3 million over the past several years.If that happened in private industry, they’d have been canned.” Dover cites the upcoming relocation of the Bedford offices “as a prime example of abuse.When Jim Bissell decided he wanted to move his office into Heroes Memorial, he took first choice of what part of the building he wanted.” The new district offices are scheduled to occupy the newest wing of the building, with the brightest, best-equipped, and most easily accessible rooms.The lower grades now occupying that space will be shunted up to the top floor of the old Heroes building UNSAFE “Of course they’d take the new bottom part,” Dover objects.“It’s nice and airy, and our kids get shoved up where it’s dangerous.There’s 30 or 40 stairs for them to go up and down all at once each recess, and I'm sure one of them is going to take a serious fall, sooner or later.It’s very frustrating for me to know that I’m going to have kids running up and down stairs in the old part of the building just to please Bissell and his cronies.” Then there’s fire safety.The new wing is the safest part of Heroes, with the widest corridors and most escape routes.The top floor of the old building is the most dangerous part — which is why the lower grade students have been kept downstairs until now.“At the big meeting about the budget we held in Heroes a couple of weeks ago, Jim Bissell said the board had to take the bottom part because some law says they have to provide handicapped access,” Dover adds.“He said they couldn’t have a wheelchair ramp into the old part because it would stick halfway out into South Street.' He stood there and lied,” Dover accuses."Why couldn’t they build a wheelchair ramp that comes up alongside the building just like they have at the (Brome Missisquoi Perkinsi hospital?" “That’s our school." Dover em phasizes, “and our kids should have priority.” USER’S FEE Dover is also highly critical of the $25-per-child materials fee that Bedford will be charging parents next fall.He doesn’t like the accounting procedures by which the money will be used to support extra’ programs, calling them “circuitous” and “devious.” He further objects to the fee on principle.“I call it a user’s fee,” Dover says.“I think it violates the spirit of the Quebec Charter of Rights, which guarantees a free public education to all children.” “When you start charging user's fees,” Dover asserts, “you’re segregating the school system, between those who can pay and those who can’t.There’s already too much of that, using peer pressure to support the schools.They're trying to bubblegum our children's education — it's chocolate sales, bake sales, book sales already, and it's gotten to the point where I won't buy it, whatever it is, just to give the school another 35 cents or whatever They shouldn't be pitting our kids against one another to see who can get the most money out of their parents.” DISCRIMINATION Finally, Dover balioven the *25 per-student levy masks a form of distrimination against the handicapped."Last year,” he charges.“Jim Bissell sent around a letter to all the parents, which I still have, where he stated that the board was having to impose a fee of $12 per student so they could continue to provide pedagogical aides.They had to have these aides, a psychiatrist, a speech therapist and so on, so they could provide for the kids with learning disabilities.“Well, if these kids are learning-disabled, they're handicapped people.They have to be provided for: it’s in the Charter of Rights.Suddenly they come to us in a big panic and want me to swallow that these services can be cut off because they have a budget deficit.But wait — they can still provide the services if they more than double the pencils-and-paper fee.“If we don't pay it.Bissell tells us, the kids with these problems will have to go all the way to Montreal.Now he wants us to believe he didn’t even know about Granby." where the Centre Hospitalier de Granby’s psychiatric clinic has facilities for children that are acclaimed throughout Quebec — and does provide service in English.What would Dover do about the situation instead?“If I had a child with a learning disability, I 'd be in the courts right now." he affirms.What about initiating reform?“I wouldn't even know where to start," Dover admits.T don't take anything away from the school commissioners who are doing their jobs, "and he cites Jim Fulfordand Peter Dobrin as two examples.“And I think our principal, Ainsley Rose, does a fantastic job with what he han to Work with Rut I feel the school board has let the English community down in keeping this administration Most people I know have no faith in the school board at all, after Bissell made all those statements that schools have to be closed and it turned out he hadn’t even done all the checking.“I really think the schools would be run just as well by the Ministry of Education.Just let Ainsley Rose and all the other principals send the bills directly to them.In my opinion the board should just can (its administrators) and start “1 made a choice as a parent to send my children to the English system." Dover concludes, “because my great-great grandfather built Heroes Memorial, my great grandfather w'ent there, 10 of us in my family went there, and I’m very disappointed in what’s happening to it.” “We had a $5000 cut in pay in this household this year.We didn’t throw any kids out or close off a bedroom ; we adjusted.We learned to live with it.I think the district of: Bedford should be able to do the same.” >'< afresh." irà yoot F C(MIMAS OMIS CINEMAS CARREFOUR DE L’ESTRIE bout.Portland, Sherbrooke 565-0366 Special every Tuesday 52.50 TOM CRUISE CINEMA 4 7:15 - 9:20 UP THERE WITH THE BEST OF THE BEST m POLTERGEIST II 'DaiswKiiasoHi CINEMA 7:00 - 9:00 Crime is a disease.Meet the cure.STALLONE CINÉMA 2Ï 7:30 - 9:30 4—The RECORD—Monday, June Hi, 1!»H« #¦_______ttgl uccoru The Voice of the Eastern Townships since 1897 Editorial , # (3) — 8 h.p.PROFESSIONAL (4) — 6 h.p.HORSE (3) — 5 h.p.PONY (1) —31/2h.p.JUNIOR (1) — CHIPPER/SHREDDERs (1) —LOG SPLITTER STOVE & GARDEN 519, SOUTH ST.COWANSVILLE, QUE.TEL: (514) 263-7582 Hinder Ruff 1er EMISSION CONTROL CENTER MUFFLER TURBO & STEBR0 FROM MAY 30 TO JUNE 30 FOR MOST OF AMERICAN MAKES STARTING AT The exhaust system is guaranteed.The guarantee for Brakes is guaranteed for life, while your still owner of the car.1995 — _— PNEUS BELMONT Inc.I 930, Wellington St.South, Sherbrooke (819) 563-6644 s xx.s sV°( O o t t B—The RECORD—Monday, June 16, 1986 —___Ml uecora You’re in a winning mood; It’s perfect tennis weather social notes Andrew and Michael Andrew, 7 years and Michael \'h months, sons of Marilyn arid Nick KoloShuk of Nepean, Ont.They are the grandchildren of Mr.and Mrs.NicfcKoloshukSr., Lasalle,Que.,and Mr.and Mrs.DanPehleman, Burv, Que.'

Congratulations Local friends join members of the family in extending congratulations and best wishes to Frank and Mary Cosgrove of N.D.G.on the occasion of their wedding anniversary on June 30.Bridal shower SUTTON — Mrs.Cathy Sherrer entertained at her home on Mountain Street, on Sunday, June 8, at a miscellenous shower in honour of Whitney Young, a June bride-to-be.Whitney, “who was not expecting a shower but upon seeing the many cars parked near the Sherrer home, realized something was happening,” was seated in a nicely decorated chair with a pile of gifts in front of it.her mother Mrs.Sherman Young was on her left, while Joan Foster mother of the prospective groom was on her right.About twenty relatives and close friends gathered from East Far-nham, Dunham, Knowlton and the Sutton area for the afternoon.Whitney received a number of nice and useful gifts for which she thanked everyone.She was assisted in opening them by her mother, future mother-in-law and others.After the gifts were passed around and admired by all, a delicious lunch was served by the hostess.A lovely bridal cake was cut and served by Whitney.The clothespin contest was won by Bev Bauer of East Farnham and the guessing contest by Mable Boyce, for which each received nicely wrapped prizes.Whitney's marriage to Ivan Foster will take place June 28 at Fre-lighsburg Anglican Church.It’s perfect tennis weather.You’re feeling in a winning mood.You’re enjoying a sustained volley when your opponent sends back the ball hard.It’s a driving shot straight to the middle of the court.“I’ll put a spin on this one and surprise him,” you say as you reach for the ball.Bam.The racket connects with the ball and suddenly you feel a fierce pain in the elbow.It’s as if a huge bulldog had gotten hold of your arm.You rest for a few minutes until the hurt begins to subside and then you finish the game.That night the pain is still there.It is a dull throb.You’ve got it.The scourge of the tennis court.Tennis elbow.The strange thing is you don’t even have to pick up a racket to get tennis elbow — you can play golf, lay bricks or carry a bag of groceries.The pain results from placing a strain on the elbow joint.This involves the ligament which allows you to rotate your hand and forearm — all it takes is a strain or an overload on the tendon complex and you’ve stretched or torn it.Frequently, it is associated with tendonitis of the shoulder, fibrosi-tis of the back, and other collagenous degenerative conditions.It can strike hard and fast or it can come on gradually; first there’s a bit of soreness which grows and grows until you can’t even shake hands across the net with your opponent.Tennis elbow is an ailment which hits the world class player as well as the sumnier or weekend athlete.Health authorities are in disagreement about both its cause and treatment.Most suggest a suspension of play until the condition has subsided.Health experts disagree on the causes of the inflammation which accompanies the pain.Some say it’s due to the formation of a bursa or sac of fine membrane which provides muscles with a gliding surface to work smoothly.Anatomical charts do not show the existence of the bursa at the elbow hinge.However, surgery has indicated bursae there, indeed.Some health experts feel the burse may be formed by the body (as a callus is formed) Health Views to relieve tnction and inflammation created by sustained wear on a bearing surface.With bursitis, the bursa becomes inflamed, causing pain and possible swelling.Moreover, there may be the formation of new fibrous tissue, and calcium from the blood is deposited in the tissue.Health specialists who adhere to the bursitis theory, such as doctors of chiropractic, have treated patients effectively with manipulation of the elbow.This treatment along with therapy has been successful in not only reducing the inflammation but also rehabilitating the arm.Bad form isn’t the only reason tennis elbow develops.Anytime one part of the body is asked to do more than it reasonably should, complications arise.A study conducted on “force overloads" which zeroed in on tennis players revealed that most cases of tennis elbow in good players result from a tendency to twist the wrist while serving; novices use the wrist and elbow for power far too often.Players can be taught how to swing and hit the ball so as to avoid certain motions which tend to perpetuate the problem.Once mastered, the problem of tennis elbow can be eliminated.Since the prevention of tennis elbow involves knowing the structure of the body, its abilities and limitations, many persons actively engaged in the game depend on a structural health specialist for regular consultation and examination.For example, many professional athletes will make periodic visits to their doctor of chiropractic for preventive and curative measures.While most likely he cannot show you how to win, he certainly can show you how to keep from losing the use of your arm.The American Chiropractic Association reminds you that the best defense against tennis elbow is a keen sense of prevention.Irwin and Ruth McBurney of Sa-wyerville, Que.are celebrating their 4()th wedding anniversary.Their children Ann and Michael are dèlighted to invite all friends and relatives to join them for this happy occasion at an Open House on Satu rday, June 21, f rom 1 to 4:30 p.m.in the Sawyerville Community Cqnter.Birthday greetings On June 19 to Emma (E.R.)

Curtis museum took place here on Saturday afternoon, June 7, when approximately 150 members of the Stanstead Historical Society gathered to visit the museum in its new location in the former RCMP building.The museum was previously located in Beebe.The visitors were greeted at the door by president Donald Prangley and executive vice-president Irene Blandford.Dora Stewart invited each one to sign the guest book.Other directors were present to chat as the visitors toured the several rooms to include military, photograph gallery, parlour, library and many more.Directors Rosalie Hudson and Mary Christie convened the refreshments and were assisted in serving the wines and cookies by Olive Wells.The executive were recipients of many compliments on the displays of artifacts and the building in general.The grounds, under the conve-nership of Margo Skelton and her committee, have been improved with flowers, etc.The Stanstead (County) Historical Society began over 50 years ago with meetings in the historic Mansur school.Later, as it grew in memberships and increased artifacts, the museum was established in the upper floor of the Stanstead Registry office, but this also became too small and in 1973 what was formerly a school was purchased in Beebe.The past winter of 1985 the decision was made to purchase the RCMP building when it was offered for sale.In 1984 a piece of land was purchased from Archie Butters that is adjacent to the RCMP building, so there is space for future expansion for the Society.Since the purchase became official and deeded for this new building, the president, executive vice-president and others on the board have worked many volunteer hours to ma ke it what it is.With the artifacts arranging, they were advised by a curator from Sher- brooke.Sunday, Junes, the museum was opened to the general public and again there were many visitors.Hostess - guides at the museum on salary are three lovely students, Claire Alger, Natalie Boucher and Nancy Ticehurst.It is hoped by the Society Board that there will be many visitors here during the holiday season.Mention must also be made of The Barm museum in Rock Island on the former Ball-Banting estate now owned by Claude Boulard.It too has many interesting artifacts, machinery of the early days, a miniature set up of the old Stanstead Post Office, the Casville Church and many more, all worth a visit.St.Andrew’s WMS holds regular meeting SHERBROOKE — The May meeting of the WMS of St.Andrew’s Presbyterian Church was held in the Ladies Parlour with twelve members present.In the absence of the president, the Vice-President Sarah MacDonald conducted the meeting, opening it by reading a poem on Tulips and led in prayer.The minutes of the previous meeting were read and adopted with one exception.Tho treasurer Isabell Mouland gave a good report.The March calendars have brought in $100.00 and the church calendars $101.00.The Spring Rally will be held at St.Paul’s Church, Melbourne, on June 7, with registration at 9 a.m.Jean Ross agreed to organize transportation for the Rally.It was decided to have dessert and coffee before the June 9th meeting.The members were reminded to pay their supply money.The program was conducted by Muriel Mayhew and Agnes McBain on Mission Workers and Profiles.Theme of the devotions was “Coming and Going" with Muriel explaining how often in the Bible we are told to come to Christ and go and tell the good news.Agnes read several scripture passages to substantiate this.The hymn “Onward Christian Soldiers” was sung.The outline of several missionaries was reviewed and a question period followed.One thing that stood out in all of these showed how impossible it is for the native people to live as we do, as it would be for us to live as they do.Agnes McBain led in prayer, and their was a quiet time of prayer followed by the Lord’s Prayer.The hostesses Lorna Savage and Sarah MacDonald served refreshments and a social time was enjoyed.Pearl Webster celebrates 80th birthday STANSTEAD
