40 cents President arrested in Haitian coup PORT-AU-PRINCE (AP) — President Jean-Bertrand Aristide was arrested Monday afternoon by rebel soldiers at the National Palace, the foreign minister said.The day-long uprising has claimed at least 26 lives.“The president and his staff have been arrested and taken to the army headquarters,’’ said the foreign minister, Jean-Robert Sabalat.He said the government was negotiating “to at least save the president’s life.” Sabalat said a loyal captain was killed when the rebels took over the National Palace about 5:30 p.m.EOT.Rebel soldiers opened fire on Aristide's home early Monday and several hours later attacked a military convoy that was taking him and the French ambassador to the National Palace.Neither Aristide nor the ambassador, Jean-Rafael Dufour, was injured, Haitian government sources said.By nightfall, a presidential adviser, overheard on a radio frequency used by the military, government and embassies, spoke of loyalist soldiers deserting and hostile units moving on to the grounds of the National Palace.The unrest occurred three days after Aristide addressed the United Nations on his first trip to the United States since becoming president of the coup-prone Caribbean country.ATTACKED AT HOME Aristide, a popular 38-year-old former Roman Catholic priest educated in Montreal, was at home with aides and a bodyguard at the time of the first attack, the government said.The trouble began late Sunday with mutinies at an army training camp at Freres.just outside Port-au-Prince, and at an army-run police station in the downtown area of the capital.Among the charges was that Aristide was meddling in internal army affairs.Shortly before midnight Sunday, the head of Radio Nacio-nale, Michel Favard, went on the air to say a government source had told him a coup was believed under way.Favard is a longtime Aristide aide.Minutes later, six soldiers burst into the station, handcuffed Favard and took him away, sources at the radio station said.An unidentified soldier, speaking on Radio Soleil, said the rebels had issued seven demands, including that the government disband 50 civilians reputedly being trained by the Swiss as an elite commando unit.Some in the army fear the unit is being trained as an elite militia under Aristide’s direct command.The rebels also demanded the government confirm the appointment of nine officers See HAITI:, page 2.TUESDAY October 1, 1991 Births, deaths .10 Classified .H Comics .0 Editorial .4 Farm & Business .5 Living .h Sports .11 Townships .3 WEATHER Page 2 No help in sight,,.WMÊÊê * « ; irr w* DE PUBL1MÆ Pressure tactics mount as PSAC walks again il By Gord McIntosh The Canadian Press Striking public servants stepped up tactics Monday by closing the port of Vancouver while Ottawa took formal steps to stop job action that grows more aggressive by the day.In a change of strategy, the Public Service Alliance of Canada put up picket lines at the two main terminals of the Vancouver port.They were quickly honored by longshoremen and truckers and activity at the port ground to a halt.The new pickets joined other alliance members who earlier shut down grain terminals in Vancouver and Prince Rupert, B.C.“We will take strike action .where it will be effective to make this government realize that they should be negotiating a collective agreement,” said alliance president Daryl Bean.j A jobless citizen filling out an unemployment- The strikers toured local government offices, with insurance form waited vainly for a little help on about 300 stopping at Sherbrooke MP Jean Charest's Monday while public service strikers in Sherbrooke riding office to protest government negotiating tac-interfered with service at the Olivier Street unemploy- tics.ment insurance centre.Turn the page for more.ki ( okihikam smm-; “And I still feel the only hope of achieving that is by appointing a mediator.” But Treasury Board President Gilles Loiselle, who earlier in the day restarted legislative proceedings to order an end to the strike, said the accelerated union tactics are threatening the economic recovery.And Loiselle continued to refuse to agree to a mediator, saying the government’s fiscal policies don’t belong in the hands of a third party.Since Bean resumed his union’s strike last Friday after a nine-day truce there has been a litany of signs Ottawa and its largest public service union are moving further apart.Loiselle, who said at the time of the Sept.18 truce that he liked Bean personally, was in no mood for diplomacy Monday.“The closing of the port of Vancouver was to him a major victory,” Loiselle said.“I hope he comes to his senses.” Loiselle also accused the union of terrorizing gover nment employees who have been crossing picket lines — something Bean took as a sign the minister is running out of arguments.Bean said the union was reviewing strike stategy Monday night and there could be more surprises like the port closing today.Both men also said they regretted agreeing to the Sept.18 truce.Bean said Ottawa’s return to the bargaining table last week was a only sham to honor an order from the Public Service Staff Relations Board that it bargain in good faith.Loiselle said it was apparent long before last Thursday night that renewed bargaining would accomplish little.The minister said he made his final decision to go ahead with the back to work legislation Monday morning after the police had to be called to get nurses and other designated essential service personnel through a picket line at Ste-Anne-de Bellevue veteran’s hospital in Montreal.The back-to-work legislation was stuck on hold after second See PSAC:, page 2.Bourassa calls economic proposal vague, simplistic By Don Macdonald MONTREAL (CP) — Premier Robert Bourassa wondered Monday whether Quebec sovereignty would really be that different from renewed federalism — except for a lot of trouble and cost.“What will the conclusion of all these (constitutional) discussions be?” Bourassa asked in a speech to a group of business leaders.“Will it be shared sovereignty?Will it be renewed federalism.What’s the difference between the two?” “We have to examine all that to see if the transition costs are worth the pain of choosing one over another." Shared sovereignty is a new addition to Bourassa's lexicon of terms for Quebec’s relationship with the rest of Canada if the province leaves Confederation.The concept is in line with his musing last year that a federal “superstructure” will always exist even if Quebec opts for sovereignty.It also reflects Bourassa’s long-held belief, based on the European Community, that there can be no economic association and monetary union between two countries without a political link.In his speech, Bourassa also stepped up his attack on the federal government’s proposal that it be given the exclusive power to make laws to manage the Canadian economic union, which was part of the constitutional package released last week.IS VAGUE Bourassa said his gover- nment wants to co-operate in improving the efficiency of the economy but called the federal proposal too vague, too simplistic and a power grab that is practically un-Canadian.“It’s not in the spirit of the Canadian federation to give one level of government a power that seems unlimited.” Much oi me nationalist criticism of Ottawa’s package has focused on the economic union proposal, which Parti Québécois Leader Jacques Parizeau predicted will spell the end of “what we call Quebec Inc.” Bourassa said Monday if Quebec wants to meet the challenge of international economic competition, it must have more power over manpower training, even though the transition might be difficult.Memorial day approved for Polytechnique victims By Bob Cox OTTAWA (CP) — The anniversary of the 1989 massacre of 14 women in Montreal will become a national day of remembrance and action on violence against women under federal legislation passed Monday.MPs unanimously approved a private members’ bill declaring Dec.6 to be a memorial day.On that day in 1989, a gunman killed 14 female students at Montreal’s Ecole Polytechnique.“I think de facto Dec.6 will be a day of remembrance and this has put the official stamp of Parliament on that,” said Dawn Black, the New Democrat MP who sponsored the bill.She expected the bill will next be approved in the Senate so it can become law.Black said she hoped the day i.o the group’s final report enti- would be used not only for remembering victims, but also for action and education.“My intent is to commemorate the 14 young women who were massacred in Montreal.but also to put a focus on the issue of violence against women and the almost 100 women a year who are nameless and faceless who die as a result of domestic violence,” said Black.PROGRESS MADE She said the unanimous approval given by MPs shows there has been progress in changing attitudes towards violence against women.Earlier this year, some Conservative MPs on a committee that studied violence against women objected tied The War Against Women.‘‘We’ve made progress, there’s no doubt about that, but it’s a long process to change attitudes,” said Black.The Conservative government recently appointed a nine-member panel to investigate the issue of violence against women and report by December 1992.The panel, headed by cochairs Pat Marshall and Marthe Asselin Vaillancourt, will examine physical, psychological and sexual violence against women and recommend actions that the government could take.Black said more could be done immediately since many problems are already well known.Hydro-Quebec comes under fire in New York By Ingrid Abramovilch NEW YORK (CP) —From its history of power blackouts to its treatment of natives, Hydro-Quebec’s reputation was attacked from almost every perspective at a New York state hearing on Monday.There were few to defend the Quebec utility's honor at the hearings, because Hydro-Quebec officials declined an in vitation to attend.“This is the single most important environmental issue in North America right now,” testified Robert Kennedy Jr., a new York environmentalist and son of the late Senator Ro bert Kennedy.“We have to take a stand on it.” The public hearings were or ganized by New York Assemblyman Bill Hoyt and Senator Franz Leichter to review the merits of a preliminary contract between New York state and Quebec.The $13 billion US contract, the largest in the history of Hydro Quebec.would involve the sale of I.OOO megawatts of hydro power to New York beginning in 1995.Quebec’s Cree and Inuit have been trying to stop the sale, which they claim is the basis for Hydro-Quebec’s plans to build new dams and flood their ancestral lands.No public hearings have been held on the issue in Canada.TWO OPPOSE PROJECT Hoyt and Leichter.who went on a canoe trip with the Cree last summer in northern Quebec, admitted at the start of the hearings that they strongly oppose James Bay 2.Hoyt is chairman of the New York state Committee on Energy; Leichter is a member of New York's Environmental Conservation Committee.But while admittedly biased, Hoyt said Monday in an interview that his hearing was justified since the issue has never been addressed at a public forum in Canada."What is wrong with a public hearing?" he asked."We have to put an end to the boardroom-to boardroom confidential faxes that have gone on from New York to Montreal.” Monday’s hearing was held at the New York County Lawyers' Association, a Georgian limestone building close to Wall Street and New York’s ci- ty hall.Against the sound of 30 activists drumming and chanting anti-Hydro-Quebec slogans outside, Leichter opened the hearings by criticizing Hydro-Quebec’s decision not to testify.“I think they owe it to the public to explain why this project makes sense," he said.Matthew Coon-Come, grand chief of Quebec's Cree, was the first witness.Coon-Come called James Bay 2 the “Frankenstein project" and described the environmental and social effects of Hydro Quebec’s previous dams on his community.“What was once regarded by my people as a staple of life is now regarded with fear,” he said, describing high levels of mercury found in fish since the construction of the first James Bay project.In the most heated exchange of the day, officials from the New York Power Authority — which negotiated the contract with Quebec accused the state legislature of acting out of its jurisdiction.“Canada is a sovereign na-See HYDRO:, page 2.t 1 2—The RKCOHI)—Tuesday.October I.I!I!H Sirros: No native ‘country within a country QUEBEC (CP) — Quebec is willing to negotiate with natives about their claim to self-government but will stop short at allowing anyone to create “a country within a country,’’ says Native Affairs Minister Christos Sirros.That would be unacceptable because it would be similar to Quebec asking to be a separate country within Canada.Sirros said in his first comments since the federal government tabled its constitutional proposals last week.On the subject of aboriginal issues, the federal proposals call for the entrenchment of the right to native self-government after a 10-year negotiation period with Ottawa and the provinces.“We’re willing to discuss self-government,’ Sirros said Monday.“There’s no reason to wait 10 years.” Quebec has already given more powers to its native population than any other province has, he said.But while Quebec is willing to discuss “any model ol autonomous government’ for natives, the province will balk at the subject of full sovereignty.“The notion of a country within a country is clearly unacceptable,” he said.“You can’t pretend that the two societies are evolving in isolation — that you can pass from one to the other without contacts." The process has parallels with the constitutional struggle between Quebec and Ottawa, saiH ‘sirrnc n ctaunrh foHpra- list.“I don’t think the rest of Canada can see Quebec operating as a country within a country either,” he said.SIRROS SURPRISED Sirros said he was surprised by the overwhelmingly negative reaction of native leaders to Ottawa's constitutional package.Natives say the offers fall short of their expectations and don’t recognize their immediate, “inherent” rights to self- government.Also, native self-government would be still subject to the federal Charter of Rights and Freedoms and some federal and provincial laws.Last Thursday, Ovide Mercredi, grand chief of the Assembly of First Nations, said he is considering boycotting hearings of the parliamentary committee set up to get the reactions of Canadians to the constitutional proposals.“I was surprised by their categorical rejection,” Sirros said.“I am hoping it is more a rejection of the process than the content of offers that were tabled,” Sirros said.“I think it is a good starting position.” The Assembly of First Nations will hold its own parallel consultations within native communities, and Sirros said he would possibly send provincial observers to the hearings.The minister is expected to release two reports next week on the state of relations with natives in Quebec.‘There is no threat in our proposals’ — Clark By Chris Morris SAINT JOHN, N.B.(CP) — Joe Clark continues to pour oil on the troubled waters of Canada’s constitutional debate.Clark, the minister for constitutional affairs, told Atlantic businessmen Monday night the federal government’s constituional proposals are not a power grab by Ottawa or anyone else.In a plea aimed specifically at Quebec, where grumbling about the reform package has been loudest, Clark said flexibility is the key to progress in the debate on Canada’s future.“There is no threat in our proposals, no imposition, no unilateralism,” he said in a speech to a meeting of the Atlantic Provinces Economic Council, a regional economic think-tank.“If it can be shown to me that our words do not say what we mean, we will change the words.What we are proposing is putting in place provisions that would let this country cooperate.” Clark focussed his attention on the contentious economic-union clauses of the constitutio- nal proposals — specifically, the creation of a Canadian common market in which people, services, capital and goods could flow freely among the provinces.He listed a series of concerns about the economic proposals, insisting, among other things, that they would not prejudice regional development programs, or equalization or hiring practices in the Quebec construction industry.WON'T LIMIT CAISSE Clark also dismissed suggestions that the proposals would limit such Quebec institutions as the giant Caisse de Depot, which manages Quebecers’ pension funds.There are fears in Quebec that the constitutional proposals would constrain the Caisse because its investment activities would be seen as discriminating in favor of Quebec companies and therefore against others.“That is false,” said Clark.“There is no rule that directs the Caissse to hold a portion of its portfolio in Quebec.our proposals are no threat what- soever to the Caisse.” He also denied suggestions that Ottawa would dictate budgets to the provinces.He said he is simply proposing that governments get together and willingly co-operate on budgets.He stressed there is no coercion.“Our bottom line is that if governments co-operate, Cana-dains win,” Clark told the small group of businessmen, who greeted his speech with polite applause.Clark said he hopes his remarks will persuade Quebec Premier Robert Bourassa to rethink his criticism of the proposals.Bourassa has described the economic proposals as simplistic and vague.“It may be that after my remarks tonight Premier Bourassa will understand more clearly,” Clark told reporters following his speech.“If he has changes to propose, we’ll naturally look forward to hearing from him as others.” Clark said that, in general, he’s encouraged by the response to the constitutional package.Fired bureaucrat says Buchanan ran drug network HALIFAX (CP) — A former high-ranking Nova Scotia civil servant has made bizarre new allegations about Senator John Buchanan, accusing him of running a drug distribution network while he was premier.Michael Zareski said Buchanan and former government services minister Terry Dona- hoe, now tourism minister, used the government’s mail and messenger service to deliver illegal drugs, which he didn’t identify.Lost boy walks off Mt.Washington MOUNT WASHINGTON, N.H.(AP) — As searchers battled overnight snow, sub-zero temperatures and winds of up to 155 kilometres an hour, a missing teenager from Quebec survived by taking refuge with hikers he happened on after getting lost on Mount Washington.“He spent a relatively comfortable night,” said searcher Charlie McCrave.“But if he hadn’t run into these folks, it would have been a lot different.He definitely was lucky.” Nicholas Ferrais, 15, of St-Vallier, Que., walked off the mountain shortly after noon.He was reported in excellent condition.Ferrais missed a trail turnoff as he hiked down from the 1,917-metre summit Sunday afternoon.Eventually, he realized he wasn’t where he wanted to be, and hooked up with the other hikers.“They had overnight camping gear and he camped out with them,” said McCrave, of the Appalachian Mountain Club.The boy was not prepared for a night on the tallest mountain in the northeast U.S., wearing only a jacket and jeans.As it turned out, he was warm in a tent while the rescuers looked for him.The temperature fell to about -10 Cel-cius and winds gusted up to 155 km-h.Searchers said Ferrais was with eight others in a group from Quebec.He became se-parted from his friends when the group split into two teams at the beginning of the hike down the mountain.His companions didn’t notice he was missing until they reached the base.Buchanan wasn’t immediately available for comment.His lawyer, John Merrick, was caught off guard by the allegations.“How do you respond to something like that?” asked Merrick.“It strikes me as a little off the wall.” Donahoe at first laughed incredulously, before dismissing Zareski’s accusations as completely false.“It’s Mr.Zareski’s problem as to what he’s done to his own reputation and that of his family,” Donahoe said in an interview.“But I have a wife and I have a teenage daughter and quite frankly I’m getting pretty pissed off.that I should be subjected, and my family with me HAITI: now by implication, to allegations that I’m engaged in activities of that kind.” MAKES CLAIM Zareski made the claim in court documents filed Monday in support of his $3.5-million civil lawsuit against Buchanan, Donahoe and former health minister David Nantes.The lawsuit alleges Buchanan and the others slandered Zareski by questioning his mental health and, in effect, wrongfully fired him by making it impossible to return to his job as deputy minister of the Government Services Department.“It is the plaintiff’s belief that the defendants, Donahoe and Buchanan, were aware of and involved with the distribution of illegal drugs in the go- vernment of Nova Scotia and were using government resources as a cover for these activities,” Zareski said.Zareski said he told the RCMP about his suspicions while they were investigating allegations he made last year that Buchanan accepted kickbacks and ran a widespread patronage network before quitting for a Senate seat in September last year.But RCMP Supt.Ed Furey, who oversaw the investigation, said he wasn’t aware of the allegations before Monday when called by a reporter.“It’s the first I heard of it,” said Furey.“We didn’t conduct any investigation of that nature.” HYDRO: Continued from page one.tion and it has laws that govern these decisions.” said New York Power Authority vice-president Robert Hiney.“We are insisting on a full environmental review under the applicable Canadian laws.” DEAL EXTENDED The New York Power Authority and Hydro-Quebec were supposed to complete their contract by November.But last month, both sides agreed to a one-year extension of the preliminary deal.“Are you suggesting that our resolution (that Canadian hydroelectric imports be subject to New York environmental standards) is unconstitutional?” Hoyt asked the Power Authority officials during questioning.“It is not only unconstitutional, it violates the free trade agreement,” Victor Tobin, another New York Power Authority vice-president, angrily responded.The New York Power Authority officials were also asked about the reliability of Hydro-Quebec as a power supplier.Hiney said Hydro-Quebec has had a history of power blackouts, but said the Quebec utility was redesigning its system “according to the criterion we have established in the United States since the 1985 (New York) blackout.” Hydro-Quebec officials are “gentlemen, they are honest, they are people of their word,” Hiney said.announced his utility, which has agreed to buy 200 megawatts of power from Quebec, will not sign the deal without significant modifications.“The world has changed,” testified Adam Madsen, a vice-president of the company, citing the success of energy conservation programs and decreased demand.“The present contract does not appear attractive tous.It is more expensive than any other alternative.” Continued from page one.assigned on an interim basis to the army high command.REFORMS ARMY Aristide, a longtime foe of the military, has moved to reform the notoriously corrupt army, historically an agent of repression in Haiti.Upon assuming office, he replaced generals from the army high command with younger officers more inclined toward democratic reform, but has not made the appointments permanent.Callers to radio stations said dead bodies lay in the streets of the city and slum areas ringing Port-au-Prince, a city of one million.Soldiers occasionally rode through the streets firing weapons in the air.Smoke rose from smoldering tire barricades erected by protesters.Private station Radio Cacique reported 26 dead and 200 wounded, citing sources at the general hospital.Among those killed during the unrest was Sylvio Claude, 57, an evangelical preacher and two-time presidential candidate.Claude was set upon by a mob in the southern provincial town of Cayes Sunday night.Assailants burned him in the streets, said Radio Antilles, an independent station.Prime Minister René Preval, in a taped broadcast, blamed the unrest on remnants of the tontons macoutes, the outlawed militia that brutally enforced the rule of the late François (Papa Doc) Duvalier and his son, Jean-Claude (Baby Doc).The Duvalier dictatorship ended Feb.7, 1986, when the younger Duvalier fled into exile in France after a popular uprising.Aristide has survived at least three previous assassination attempts.PS AC: —____tel Kscora CIRCULATION DEPT.819-569-9528 FAX: (819) 569-3945 KNOWLTON OFF.: 514,243-0088 FAX: 514-243-5155 Randy Kinnear,

Timlin in the eighth inning Monday night, rallying the California Angels past the Blue Jays 2-1.Mark Langston (18-8) threw a three-hitter with six strikeouts over 7 1-3 innings and Bryan Harvey got the final five outs for his American Leagueleading 45th save as the Angels prevented the Blue Jays from moving a step closer to baseball’s AL East crown.Winfield, who has 21 homers and 82 RBIs against Toronto in his career, silenced a recordsetting SkyDome sellout of 50,321 with his clutch hit.Toronto pushed its 1991 attendance figure to 3,900,800, eclip- sing the major league-record 3,885,284 fans that went through the dome's turnstiles in 1990.The Blue Jays will become the first team in major-league history to break the four-million barrier in their home finale Wednesday.OFF WALL Jimmy Key (16-12) gave up consecutive one-out singles by Luis Polonia and Dick Schofield in the eighth.Enter Timlin.who got Gary Gaetti on a fly ball for the second out before Winfield lined a 1-0 pitch off the left-field wall.Key, who scattered six hits while striking out four, escaped a couple of early jams.Winfield doubled with one out in the fourth and went to third when Joe Carter made a leaping grab of Lance Parrish’s fly ball to the right-field wall.But Winfield was called out by second-base umpire Ken Kaiser for leaving the bag early, completing a unique double play.Mariners 3 Rangers 2 ARLINGTON.Tex.(AP) — Nolan Ryan reached the 5.500-strikeout mark and Ken Griffey Jr.became the youngest player in 35 years to drive in 100 runs as the Seattle Mariners beat the Texas Rangers 3-2 in 11 innings Monday night in the first game of a doubleheader.Seattle won its club-record 79th game as Jay Buhner ho-mered in the 11th off Wayne Rosenthal (1-4).It was Buhner’s 25th homer, his first 118 at-bats since Aug.13.The Mariners, trying for their first .500 season, are 79-77.Tigers 8 Orioles 3 DETROIT (AP) — Pete Inca-viglia, Mickey Tettleton and Lou Whitaker hit two-run homers as the Detroit Tigers closed out their home season Monday night with an 8-3 victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Mark Letter’s six-hitter.Yankees 3 Indians 0 CLEVELAND (AP) — Scott Sanderson became the Yankees’ first 16-game winner in four years, but was forced from the game when a line drive dislocated a finger Monday night as New York beat the Cleveland Indians 3-0.It was the 17th shutout of the season against the Indians and their major league-leading 101st loss.Braves do their part to stay in race CINCINNATI (AP) — The Atlanta Braves reached a couple of milestones Monday night and stayed within reach of the prize they most want — first place in baseball’s National League West.John Smoltz overcame control problems to pitch two-hit ball over eight innings and Sid Bream singled home a pair of runs in a four-run third inning for a 4-0 victory over Cincinnati.It was the Braves’ fourth consecutive win.They started the day one game behind Los Angeles.The Dodgers played at home against San Diego late Monday.Atlanta got its 90th win for only the second time and reached 23 games over .500 (90-67) for the first time since 1983, the year after its last NL West title.Smoltz (13-13) stayed unbeaten since Aug.15.He walked three and threw three wild pitches, but used 10 strikeouts to avoid trouble.The only hits off him were clean second-inning singles by Bill Doran and Billy Hatcher.Mike Bielecki, acquired from the Cubs on Sunday, got the last three outs.He gave up one hit.DISAPPOINTING The Braves took command with a four-run third inning off Jack Armstrong (7-13), the Reds’ most disappointing pitcher in their disappointing season.The loss Monday means the Reds can finish no higher than fourth a year after their World Series championship.Lonnie Smith led off the third with a walk, and singles by Mark Lemke and Terry Pendleton loaded the bases with none out.Smith then squeezed out the first run and set up the rest of the inning with a bold move.Pirates 6 Mets 5 PITTSBURGH (AP) — Jay Bell hit his first career grand slam in a six-run second inning that carried the Pittsburgh Pirates past the New York Mets 6-5 Monday night.It was the Mets’ second game under interim manager Mike Cubbage, who took over when Bud Harrelson was fired.Howard Johnson extended his NL home run lead with his 38th.Johnson also stole two bases to raise his season total to 29, leaving him one steal short of his third career 30-30.Steve Buechele added a two-run homer in the second as the Pirates matched their 1990 victory total of 95.Buechele’s homer, his fourth, followed a walk to Barry Bonds.Doug Simons (2-3), making his first major-league start after 41 relief appearances, then loaded the bases.Don Slaught doubled, Jose Lind singled and Gary Redus walked ahead of Bell’s 16th homer.Bell has a career-best 64 RBIs, the most by a Pirates shortstop since Tim Foli had 65 in 1979.ETIAC SOCCER SCOREBOARD SENIOR GIRLS Teams Gp Gm Gl T GF GA Pis.Massey Vanier .3 2 1 0 4 3 4 BUS 3 2

in one year CHICAGO (AP) — Retooled.Rededicated.Returning to the AL playoffs for the first time since winning it all in 1987.That’s the story of the 1991 Minnesota Twins, the only team in major-league history to go from worst to first in the span of one season.“We had to retool, particularly our pitching staff,” general manager Andy MacPhail said after the Twins clinched the AL West title on Sunday despite losing 2-1 to Toronto.“It’s nice to know that you can bounce back after what we went through.” Minnesota clinched when second-place Chicago lost to Seattle 2-1.Jack Morris, whose personal comeback was one of the keys to the Twins’ turnaround, said he knew the Twins were not a last-place team — even though that’s where they were last year.“We have a good club and we’ve earned the chance to be where we are,” said Morris, expected to start Game 1 of the playoffs on Oct.8 at the Metro-dome.“I think if you ask any team in the American League what they think about the Minnesota Twins, they’d say that they’ve got respect for us.“It’s been a fun year.It’s probably confusing for a lot of people to understand how we could go from last place to first place like this, but I knew it could happen.I knew that this club had too much character to go through another year like 1990.” The Twins of the last five seasons are a perfect illustration of baseball’s cyclical nature.WON IT ALL In 1987, they surprised everyone — including themselves — by winning a weak division with an 85-77 record and then pulling out a championship.The next season, they finished 91-71, but the Oakland Athletics took control and won by 13 games.In 1989, beset by injuries and distractions — including bitter contract negotiations between MacPhail and 1988 Cy Young winner Frank Viola which eventually led to Viola being traded to the New York Mets —-the Twins went 80-82 and were never a factor in what had become baseball’s best division.Last season, the Twins got off to a horrible start and a horrible' finish and ended up 29 games behind the A’s.Even in the gloom, however, newcomers like Scott Erickson, Kevin Tapani, Rick Aguilera and Shane Mack flashed enough big-league potential to give the Twins hope for the future.In the offseason, after the club lost third baseman Gary Gaetti to free agency, MacPhail signed Morris, DH Chili Davis and third baseman Mike Pagliarulo as free agents.And rookie Chuck Knoblauch came out of Class AA to claim the starting second base job.And, since their 2-9 start, the Twins have played better than any team in baseball to win a division in which all seven teams could finish over .500.“Winning the World Series in 1987 was fantastic.But when you go through a down cycle, being a small-market team, you have to worry that you may not be able to make it back.It’s very satisfying to see that we could,” MacPhail said.“It’s a testimony to the entire organization.” Manager Tom Kelly credited owner Carl Pohlad and MacPhail “for bringing in the players and taking a shot at a few free agents.” “They did a good job on research to make sure they were getting players who fit the ball club.You roll the dice with free agents and we won this time,” Kelly said.“And you have to give the players credit for not wanting to have another year like last year.“We suffered the last couple of years while we were rebuilding our pitching staff.But it looks like it was worth the wait.” SHERBROOKE — For awhile, it looked like the Champlain Cougars hockey team would record its first victory of the still-young 1991 CEGEP double-A season on Friday.But it was not to be, as the Cougars were unable to hold onto an early 3-0 lead, and lost their home opener to the Dawson Blues by a score of 6-4.Champlain, last year’s provincial champion team, is 0-2 in league play so far this year.Dawson scored four goals in three minutes to take the lead in the second period at W.B.Scott Arena.A goal by the Cougars' Jean-Marc Zucco in the third period tied the score at four goals each, but Dawson’s Valentin Passerelli notched the winner soon after.Champlain had taken their 3-l) lead in the opening period on goals by Carl Mercure, Martin Wanadi and Marc Lambert.Dawson’s goal-scorers were Yan Martin, Robert Auclair, Dominic Gagner and Jean-Paul O’Conner.Passarelli scored a second goal into an open net.Florida State tops U.S.college ball CHL won’t be fly in Lindros’ ointment CALGARY (CP) —The president of the Canadian Hockey League says it would probably allow Eric Lindros to play in the NHL this year, even if he misses Wednesday's signing deadline.“My gut feeling is the Canadian Hockey League would not be a fly in the ointment in this particular case,” Ed Chyno-weth, presidentof the umbrella junior league, said Monday.“We recognize there are some problems and we re not just trying to make a special Scoreboard case every time something comes along, but my gut feeling is we would not be the fly in the ointment.” Under an agreement between the CHL and NHL, ju-nior players must sign a contract before the opening of the NHL season or be returned to their junior teams.The NHL regular season opens Thursday.In that event, they can only be called back to the NHL on an emergency basis to replace injured players and must be returned to junior after that.SHUNS QUEBEC Lindros, drafted No.1 overall in June by the Quebec Nordiques, has refused to report to Quebec’s training camp and has said he will never play in Quebec City.He has been playing with his junior team, the Oshawa Generals of the Ontario Hockey League.while his agent, Rick Curran.sought a loophole in the junior agreement.“We’re not just sitting around waiting for Oct.2 to pass,” Curran said Sunday.1'ieiie Page, general manager of the Nordiques, has maintained he will not trade Lindros before the Wednesday deadline, despite the pleadings of Curran and the Lindros family.He also said he believed Lindros wouldn’t be eligible to play this season unless he signed with the Nordiques before the deadline.But Chynoweth said if Lindros is traded by mid-November, he could sign a contract with his new team and play this season.NEW YORK (AP) — Florida State, a 51-31 winner Saturday over Michigan, strengthened its position as the No.1-ranked team in The Associated Press college football poll released Monday.Michigan fell four spots to seventh.The
