Blaikie said."And so some of these raises are in the neighborhood of $10,000, $15,000 per person — which is about the same as some of people on the lowest end of the income scale make."

On another subject, a U.S.official said Baker plans to talk to Kuwaiti leaders about bolding elections."We think it’s legitimate to talk about it." the official said.The Sabah family has run the oil-rich emirate since the 18th century.Baker, due in Israel on Monday, has not requested a meeting with Palestinians "because they are in See U.S.Faire 2.1 ¦*« 1,1 r- — The end is in sight for Ben Johnson — the end of his competitive career."I have two big years left — this year and next year and then I think it will be time to pack it in.” Johnson said Thursday at a news conference prior to the start of the world indoor track and field championships.Today’s 60 and 100-metre sprints at the world outdoor championships in Tokyo in August and the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, are “the three biggest races of my life now.” "After Barcelona, 1 will finish with track and field.' the 29-year-old Toronto sprinter declared.I'm getting older and it’s getting harder.I feel the pain.” Johnson, who now has a new contract with the Italian-based Diadora sportswear firm, is competing as a member of the Canadian team for the first time since his two-year suspension after tes- ting positive for steroid use at the 1988 Seoul Olympics.6.53 TO WIN He predicted it will take a time of 6.53 seconds to win the men’s 60-metre final today.The men's and women’s 60-metre sprints and the men’s shotput are the only finals on the opening day of the three-day meet, which has attracted 650 athletes from 85 countries.Johnson’s best electronically-timed performance in his comeback has been a 6.58 last week in Germany.He won the 60-metre final at the world indoor meet in Indianapolis in 1987 in 6.41.which was one of his world marks thrown out following the steroids scandal.Among his more formidable opponents will be Linford Christie of Britain.Chidi Imoh of Nigeria.Andre Cason of the United States and teammate Bruny Surin of Montreal.Christie s personal best is 6.51.Imoh's 6.52.Cason's 6.58 and Sunn's 6.61 American Lee McRae owns the championship record of 6.50 seconds.but he's sidelined by injury.American Leroy Burrell holds the world record of 6.48.but decided earlier not to attend the meet.Johnson said the key to his success or failure will be his start "If I get out of the blocks fast, it'll be over because nobody will catch me." he said.I pray to God I can get out of the blocks fast." Johnson has won five of eight races, including four of five at the 60-metre distance, since launching his comeback in January.POWER MISSING But the explosive starts that helped him set now defunct world records in his pre-Seoul athletic life have been, for the most part, missing."There hasn't been the power in the first 20 metres that 1 need,” Johnson said "It has been a little better the last couple of races.” He said "it's good for me to compete tor Canada again.Not on- ly for Canada but for the whole world, it’s good to come back as a positive role model." But he won't find Christie in agreement.The Briton has criticized Johnson’s reappearance on the track scene.“The best way to make him disappear is to make sure he keeps losing, which is what I intend to happen in Seville.” Christie said in a recent interview."He should have been totally ignored, but instead he's earning a lot of money and the wages of sin are making him a happy man.“There have been a lot of double standards in athletics over Johnson and people who condemned him arc now falling over to see him." Johnson maintains he doesn't pay attention to the verbal darts.“Some athletes point fingers at me but I ignore that.” he said.Just "be Ben" he tells himself.Injuries keep Canadian golfer out of the swing CORAL SPRINGS.Fla.(AP) — Dan Halldorson was playing in pain, as usual, when he hobbled to a place among the leaders Thur sday in the first round of the Honda Classic golf tournament."It still hurts walking: you just try not to think about it," the 38-year-old veteran from Brandon, Man .said after he’d come back from an early double bogey and compiled a 5-under-par 67.The soft-spoken Halldorson is suffering from what he called a "flared hip " injury that restricts movement “If has my right hip higher than my left, and keeps me from turning the hip — and that is not good for the golf swing." said Halldorson.whose career has been punctuated by a series of injuries and ail ments."Back injuries.Hip injuries Hand injuries.You name it."A person's body wasn't meant to play golf.” added Halldorson.who joined the American PGA Tour in 1975 and scored his lone victory in the 1980 Pensacola Open.What's happened since then'’ "Not much." he said.But he did play on the two-man teams mai won Hie World C up lor Canada in 1980 and 85.won several Canadian Tour events and.in 198.3.led the Canadian Order of Merit.BACK TO SCHOOL Last year, however, he was 215th on the American money winning list and had to return to the PGA Tour's qualifying school to regain his American playing rights.That was at least parliallv the result of tne hip injury, tie said."It I’m riding in a car for a long time, it can take me 10 minutes to get loosened up from it." he said."If I stop and sit down after nlavine I can't practice.I stiffen up too much "I don’t think I II make it to the senior tour.” Despite the pain and the frustrations and the struggles.Halldorson said he really has not considered giving up the game "Don’t want to geta regular job.I guess." he said.Halldorson had to come back from a double-bogey on the fourth hole, when a wedge shot from hea v y dew flew over the green and into the water.He got it back to par by the turn, then played the back nine in 31.Time to point to some numbers IlOmBori» propip t^rcafl a rta«ynp¥rapwtortriy 7of them open and took at ttieggrage page the page where yrxr advertising cuuld he.As fTtrisumerv, those UÛ rr^on carft do witfwut thor paper As an arhrrtiv* can you afford to?t« à 1 —___ necora Newspapers.Our time has come.Wallach possibly on his last three-year contract By Michel Lajeunesse WEST PALM BEACH.Fla.(CP) — Tim Wallach signed a three-year contract extension worth an estimated $11-12 million on Thursday that should allow the gifted third baseman to finish his career with the Montreal Expos.Wallach.33, signed for 1993, 1994 and possibly 1995 and became the highest-paid player in the 22-year-old franchise’s history, surpassing the $9.5 million, three-year deal signed in December by pitcher Dennis Martinez.“What is certainly most important for me is that it will allow me to finish my career with the Expos,” said Wallach, who will earn $1.7 million this season as part of a three-year contract extension signed in 1989.“Most of all I was thinking about stability for my family.Now I know where I'll be in two years.We can even think about buying a house in Montreal.Stability and financial security for my family were the most important things for Should Wallach play 140 games in either 1993 or 1994, his contract would automatically be extended to 1995.Wallach.who is married with two sons, said the Expos, the club he broke in with in 1980, offered to reopen contract talks because his salary had fallen behind the average for baseball's top players.“The Expos showed faith in me by offering this kind of deal,” said Wallach.who last season batted .296.with 98 runs batted in.“It means a lot to me that they initiated it.fc,X* wa i/FFERED "There was no question of me asking to renegotiate.W hen I signed Tor three years in 1989, my salary was comparable to the top players in the game.The fact that everything changed since then didn’t matter.I had no problem with that.I just wanted an extension so I could stay in Montreal.” Wallach.a gold glover who has been Montreal's starting third baseman since 1982.had career highs hits (185) last season.His best season was 1987.when he batted .298 with 89 runs scored and 123 RBI.•‘This is a big day for the Expos,” said general manager Dave Dom-browski.“Tim Wallach is special to us.He is 100 per cent a Montreal Expo."

Glover said in a telephone interview after the game."We took some bad penalties and they outskated us." he said of the Galt team, which finished the season in first place."It was the best game I've seen them play this year." Glover was also prepared to take some of the blame himself “It's a question of organization.I wasn’t sending the right guys out on the penalty killing squad Galt coach Brian Heath agreed that it was the Pipers best game in a while."We moved the puck much better than we had lately,” Heath said.But he added that the score was a little misleading and the Pipers won't take the Vikings lightly in game two on Saturday."We had to work really hard for it." Heath said."They're still a really good team.It's definitely a plus to play our next two games at home." The Vikings opened the scoring early on a goal by all star David Arnett and kept it close until the end of the second period.In spite of being outshot by the Pipers 32-7.they trailed by only 2-1 going into the third The Galt goals, both short-handed, were scored by Mark Deboer and Marc Cabana The third period was all Pipers.They took a 7-1 lead on goals by Reynald Driscoll.Deboer.John Letourneau and a pair by Kevin Warren.Massey Vanier could only-come up with a last minute goal by Carey Brislan la a scramble after the last goal, all-star Piper defenceman Sean Ride was given a major sticking penalty, which means an automatic one-game suspension.Heath and Glover agreed the defenceman's absence on Saturday could r.urt the Pipers "He plays a lot." Heath said."We'll have to have our forwards coming back more quickly." Glover said his boys aren't completely discouraged by the loss, adding that the Vikings beat the Pipers in their last meeting.“We’ll just take it as a learning experience.We'll go out on Saturday and give it our best shot.” Game two will be played Saturday at 12:15 at Bishop's University.Canadiens’ top prospect signs contract By Bill Beacon MONTREAL (CP) — John Le-Clair, one of the Montreal Canadiens top prospects, signed a three-year contract plus an option year on Thursday and will join the National Hockey League club at practice today."He's a guy we feel has the talent to be a very good player.” said Canadiens general manager Serge Savard.-‘He has everything — a good shot, good size and good skating."Now.we'll see how he does.” LeClair.21.may see his first NHL action this weekend.The Canadiens play host to the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday and the Los Angeles Kings on Sunday.LeClair ended a four-year stay with the University of Vermont when the Catamounts were elimi nated from the playoffs by St.Lawrence University last week.He is to finish a business degree this summer.The six-foot-two, 205-pound left winger from St.Albans.Vt., just over an hour’s drive southeast of Montreal, was described by his university coach Mike Gilligan as “a dominant, power forward type of kid.“He dominated in our league but I think he's even more suited to the pros than to the college game.He’s really strong along the boards and he’s got a great pair of hands." LeClair was the first American drafted in 1987 — in the second round.33rd overall, by Montreal.OPENED SPOT The Canadiens made room for him un Tuesday when Savard traded left winger Mark Pederson to the Philadelphia Flyers for a draft choice just ahead of the league trading deadline.“I don't think you can make a direct link between the two moves.” said Savard "We decided Mark Pederson wouldn't do it for us."We gave him his chance and it didn't work out We felt LeClair was the player for us at this time.We have others in Fredericton, but we felt he was the most ready and we’ll see in the next few days or weeks if that’s true.“We’re a little short on left wing.We traded Pederson and Ryan Walter hasn't been playing lately." The Canadiens are also missing left winger Sylvain Turgeon with an injury.LeClair flourished this season after being moved from centre to left wing at the suggestion of Canadiens director of player development Claude Ruel.He led the team with 25 goals and 20 assists in 32 games in his first injury-free season in three years.LeClair twice played for the United States at world junior championships.playing left wing on a line with Mike Modano and Jeremy Roenick in Anchorage in 1988.He had expressed interest in playing for the United States at the 1992 Olympics in Albertville.France, but apparently gave that up when he signed with the Canadiens.Gilligan said LeClair may ask to join the Olympic squad if he is sent down to Fredericton of the AHL next season.Curling championship ends up in confusion By Ian MacLaine HAMILTON (CP) — Alberta and Saskatchewan went down to shock defeats Thursday night to throw the Canadian men’s curling championship into confusion.Kevin Martin of Edmonton and Randy Woytowich of Regina remained co-leaders in the 12-team round-robin competition, but their positions were tentative at best with just one preliminaiy round to play.Tiebreakers after today’s draw will likely be needed to determine the three medal-round teams after Alberta was stunned 5-3 by Quebec veteran Kevin Adams and Woytowich was beaten 6-2 by Rick Lang's Northern Ontario rink from Thun- der Bay.The results left Alberta and Saskatchewan at 7-3, followed by British Columbia.Manitoba and Northern Ontario at 6-4 and Nova Scotia.Prince Edward Island and Ontario with outside chances of making a tie breaker round at 5-5.Newfoundland and New Brunswick were at 4-6.the Territories 3-7 and Quebec.2-8 In other lOth-round play Thursday night.Jeff Stoughton of Winnipeg beat Russ Howard of Pene-tanguishene.Out.6-1 ; Gerry Kent of Cranbrook.B.C., downed the Gary Mitchell foursome from Moncton.N.B.8-3; Dan Bentley of Halifax defeated Chuck Haines of Whitehorse.6-4; and Robert Campbell of Charlottetown edged John Boland of Gander.Nfld., 7-6.SHARE LEAD In the afternoon draw.Saskatchewan beat New Brunswick 8-2 and Alberta needed an extra end to defeat Newfoundland 6-5 to share the lead after nine draws.In other matches.P.E.I.continued its giant killing role, upsetting Northern Ontario 6-5 in 11 ends.Ontario downed Quebec 9-6.Nova Scotia surprised Manitoba 5-4.and B.C.routed the Territories 10-2.The top three teams following this afternoon s 11th draw advance to the weekend medal round with first place getting a bye to Sunday’s championship game.Woytowich said he played up the importance of finishing first in the round robin."At least you know you'll be placing in the final on Sunday,” he said."Then it's just 20 rocks (for each plover» and vou either win it or lose.Woytowich said it's been the so-called less heralded rinks that have been givin them trouble during the week.New Brunswick got on a losing string early then juggled personnel — third Grant Ol-dishaw switching with skip Mitchell — and won three straight before the loss to Saskatchewan."It's the non contenders that have been giving us the most trouble." said Woytowich."Kevin Adams (Quebeci snot 94 against us and Campbell (P.E.I.) was 88."So nothing has been easy for us here this week."

will not be able to hunt does and fawns in zone 05 of the Townships.At least that's what a press release from the Eastern Townships Fish and Game Club Alliance would have us believe.It seems the Quebec Fish and Game Ministry and fish and game clubs making up the Alliance are not on friendly terms.In fact, the Fish and Game Ministry and the Quebec Farmers’ Union (UFA) are also at an impasse.Ninety-per cent of wood lots in the Eastern Townships are privately owned, and most owners are not willing to let Minister Gaston Blackburn and his bureaucrats impose laws concerning who has the right to hunt on their properties.Last year, an agreement was reached between the Ministry and the Eastern Townships Fish and Game Alliance as well as the UFA.But the agreement was not respected by the government, and now property owners are not ready to be manipulated by the Ministry.Blackburn seems to have forgotten that we live in a democracy where owners' rights exist and should not be ignored.Obviously, if an agreement can't be reached, the chances of a limited number of hunting permits for does and fawns in zone 05 are small.SALMON RESULTS Even though we’re only in the month of March and salmon fishing is still months away, many fishermen are dreaming in salmon colors of the fish they're hoping to catch in their favorite river To encourage those dreams, here are the results of 1990 catches given by the Atlantic Salmon Federation.New Brunswick rivers produced 30.261 salmon.Of that, 9,988 were adults and 20.273 grilse.New Brunswick sports fisher men caught 5.870 more salmon last year than in 1989.Nova Scotia produced 6,922 salmon — 2,090 adults and 4.832 grilse — a decrease of 1,209 from 1989.Newfoundland and Labrador registered 10.919salmon —260adults Great outdoors By REAL HEBERT MsLk and 10.704 grilse — an increase of 2,443 from the previous year.Quebec rivers produced 14.689 salmon — 9,292 adults and 5.397 grilse — an increase of 2,658 since 1989.If most Quebec rivers show an increase, certain areas showed a decrease in catches.This was the case for the Wales.George, and St Jean (Gaspé) rivers.On the whole, we can say the 1990 season in Quebec was good for atlantic salmon fishermen.According to the statistics.New Brunswick rivers are always the most productive, even though there are fewer salmon rivers in New Brunswick than in Quebec.It should be noted that the Mira-michi River in New Brunswick, which alone produced 24.333 adult salmon and grilse in 1990, is the most productive in North America.Nevertheless, the Moisie River in Quebec is where the largest salmon are caught.Now let's hope the 1991 season will be as successful as last year’s.Atlantic salmon results are in.RKOKD kl M IIHtl K I Senators’ main owners willing to
