He added that although he didn’t deliberately provoke the controversy, it may have a silver lining.He said he "wouldn't be surpri sed at all" if it increases his credibility — it shows he is “attentive to the situations of all minority groups,” not just francophones — and it may focus new attention on finding resolutions to language disputes.He expressed regret that his critics attacked him without first seeking an explanation from him.but did not dwell on the point.However, while that controversy may have been put on simmer for the moment, another could be hea ding for the front burner Keith Spicer, the country’s first official languages commissioner, said the "most pathetic gesture ” in the whole furore over Fortier’s remarks was the fact that anglophone members of the Quebec government voted with the majority to censure Fortier “The best word for their self-abasement is .‘slithering on their belly in submission’," Spicer, now editor of the Ottawa Citizen, wrote in a column.Fortier had only stated "a fairly obvious truth," added Spicer, describing the attack on him as "a pre-Easter crucifixion." Fortier's harshest critics were quiet Tuesday Not one appeared at the committee, leaving it to To-ronto-area Tory Robert Horner to say that "I defend your right as an officer of Parliament to call the shots as you see them." Hamelin even went so far as to praise Fortier later for his work with the official languages committee."We had a strong and sustained collaboration with the commissioner and his team and 1 would like to pay tribute to him tor this collaboration." Robic plans to treat all refugees equally QUEBEC (CP) — In a surprise reversal.Immigration Minister Louise Robic threw into doubt Tuesday the fate of 37 Turkish refugee claimants whose deportation was suspended last week by the federal government.Contradicting her earlier statements, Robic told reporters there was no deal with the federal government to resolve the Turks’ plight.“lam not going to treat people differently,” said Robic.“My offer of a solution was a global offer.I have not received my answer from (federal Immigration Minister) Mr.Bouchard.” Robic walked away from reporters and would not answer when asked what would happen to the 37 Turks whose situation grabbed public attention 10 days ago when one took refuge in a Roman Catholic church in Montreal to avoid being expelled.Robic claimed victory last week at a news conference when she said Bouchard agreed to demands by her aimed at ending the standoff in the church where the Turkish refu- Delays by Senate will be costly OTTAWA (CP) — Delays by the Liberal-dominated Senate in passing new refugee legislation could cost the country as much as $75 million, Immigration Minister Benoit Bouchard forecast Tuesday.The money will have to be spent to clear a backlog of refugee cases that now stands at nearly 50,000 and may grow to 70,000 cases by fall, he told the Commons immigration committee.He estimated it will be fall at the earliest before two refugee bills awaiting passage can be put into operation even if the Senate relents within the next few weeks and allows them to pass.“I’m sure if we continue it will be between $60 million and $75 million next fall,” he told reporters later.“I hate to speak about money when I speak about refugees.It could be seen like — oh, the minister wants to convince Canadians with money.But it’s overwhelming.“When we look at all of the implications of this kind of attitude by the Senate, it’s awful.” The government says about three-quarters of all claimants now trying to obtain refugee status are unlikely to meet Canadian admittance standards.Bouchard said the cost of processing the backlog is not provided for in the government’s budget.gee claimant, Ismail Ozkan, 29, and about 300 supporters were holed up for two days.EXAMINE CASES Robic, who has been criticized for her handling of the affair, said the confusion was due to a “misunderstanding” between her and Bouchard.Their versions of what they agreed on have differed for a week.Last Tuesday, she demanded in the legislature that Bouchard halt deportations of the 37 Turks until her ministry had a chance to examine their cases.In addition, she called on Bouchard to halt deportation of other refugee claimants until Bill C-55, now being by stalled by the Liberal-dominated Senate, was passed.Once the new refugee act was in place, Robic urged, an administrative review using broader criteria could be conducted of the cases of all 47,000 refugee claimants in Canada.In return, Robic supported the immigration bill which she previously criticized for its powers to deport without a hearing refugee claimants who arrived in Canada from a designated “safe” country.Throughout last week, Bouchard refused to confirm Robic’s statements, promising only to stay the deportation orders against the 37 Turks until Quebec decided whether to admit them as immigrants.“We have been quite clear in our position,” Marie-Josee Lapointe, an aide to Bouchard, said Tuesday in a telephone interview from Ottawa.“We have said ‘no’ to suspending deportation orders across the country, ‘no’ to an administrative review.“All that we said we would do was delay the deportation orders against the (37) Turks If Quebec doesn’t issue them selection certificates, they will be deported ” Quebec has the power to select its own immigrants subject to final approval by the federal government.The Turks were part of a group of 2,000 who arrived in Montreal at the end of 1986, claiming they were lured by unscrupulous travel agents who promised they would be welcomed as immigrants because Canada needed laborers.About 400 have already returned to Turkey.Ottawa says food prices may rise but not meat OTTAWA (CP) — Food prices should rise by two per cent this year, less than half the increase last year, the Agriculture Department said Tuesday.The increased value of the dollar as well as cheaper pork and chicken will be major ingredients in the lower price rises, the department said in its quarterly forecast.The forecast also said that farm earnings might be slightly higher than $5.27 billion predicted by department economists in a December outlook.Just how much that increase might be won’t be known until J une.economist Jacques Petit told reporters.And considering inflation and other costs, farm income this year will be 8.3 per cent lower than it was last year and a lot less than farmers earned in the late 1970s when farm prices were high, he said.Meat prices for consumers should drop in coming months because of increased supplies of pork and poultry.But dairy products will cost more because of a price increase to farmers for milk.Fighting for his people mm SJ/' *0 iKTER«.() million a year by using a computer system that can deposit family allowance, pension and old-age security cheques directly into bank accounts.But the department must still get approval from Treasury Board, which nixed a 1985 plan as too expensive, Deputy Minister Dr.Maureen Law told the Commons public accounts committee Tuesday.She agreed with criticism by the federal spending watchdog, Auditor General Ken Dye, that the current system is antiquated.Even address changes for cheques can't be processed at local Health and Welfare offices, she noted.All such changes require sending forms to head office rather than using a system of local computer terminals with direct links to a central computer.“Clearly, the system is inefficient." A cheque issuing system using a central computer would also allow the department to combine several payments into a single cheque, Law told the committee.For example, the computer could add a family allowance benefit to a Canada Pension Plan benefit and spit out one cheque for the total.Canadians who don’t want electronic bank deposits could remain on the old mailed cheque system, department spokesman Dr.D E L.Maasland said in an interview.Three dead in Cuban embassy fire MONTREAL (CP) — Three people died in a fire that heavily damaged the Cuban consulate Tuesday night.Fire director Raymond Ther-rien said the three — two men and a woman — were found in different rooms of the top floor of the four storey building on the slopes of Mount Royal.Therrien said he presumed the three were all consular employees.“They apparently died of smoke inhalation,” he told reporters.He also said that firemen arrived on the top floor, where the fire is believed to have started, they found unrolled hoses.The people inside the consulate had apparently attempted to fight the blaze, Therrien said.The fire began at about 7:30 p.m But consulate officials kept firemen cooling their heels for about 15 minutes before letting them in to do their work.“They've got their own security and their own fire people working inside,” RCMP Sgt.Ulrich Pilon told reporters on the scene.“When they saw it was out of control they let the (firemen) in.” Pilon said he was on consular patrol when a security guard in a condominium across the street from the consulate phoned to say he saw smoke coming from the attic of the imposing 19th-century mansion.“There were one or two fire trucks there when we arrived,” Pilon said.“After we talked with the consul and she checked with her officials in Ottawa, they let the firemen in. 2—The RECORD—Wednesday, March 30, 1988 Cabinet ministers in contempt, go to court over immigration case OTTAWA (CP)—Two federal cabinet ministers found in contempt of court in an immigration case have been ordered to appear before a Federal Court of Canada judge today for a sentencing hearing.External Affairs Minister Joe Clark and Communications Minister Flora MacDonald, who was immigration minister in 1985 when her officials failed to meet a court order to produce documents, were ordered to be present for the hea- ring before Mr.Justice Barry Strayer.Strayer found the two ministers not to be in contempt but was overruled Jan.8 by the Federal Court of Appeal, which referred them for a hearing by Strayer “for the imposition of a penalty, if any.” The federal government already has taken steps to appeal this ruling to the Supreme Court of Canada but was unable to stall the sentencing hearing until the Supreme Court makes a decision.The Supreme Court will hear the federal motion for leave to appeal the Federal Court of Appeal ruling April 25.Strayer told lawyers he expected Clark and MacDonald to be in court in person regardless of whether the appeal process had started.HELD RESPONSIBLE?The Supreme Court is being asked whether Clark and MacDonald can be held responsible for not obeying a court order they had no knowledge of personally, “Are ministers of the Crown vicariously liable in contempt for the conduct of officials in their departments?“the government is asking in its motion for leave to appeal.The contempt saga began in 1980 when Debora Bhatnager, a Canadian, married Ajay Bhatnager, a citizen of India.He went back to New Delhi after the marriage and she began efforts to get him into Canada as a landed immigrant.Five years later, she went to James Jerome, an associate chief justice of the federal court, asking for a court order to have the application dealt with.After a number of attempts by Bhatnager’s lawyer and by immigration officials to get a visa file from the Canadian High Commission office in New Delhi, Jerome issued an order to produce it by a certain date.Clark was included in the order as a party because visa officials in the high commission office are ex- ternal affairs employees.Bhatnager’s lawyer asked for a contempt hearing when the file finally turned up after weeks of delay.Representing Bhatnager is Clayton Ruby, a Toronto lawyer involved in a number of high-profile immigration cases.The government hired J.J.Robinette, a legendary court room lawyer from Toronto, to represent Clark and MacDonald after they were held to be in contempt.Trees are not being replaced fast enough By Allan Swift MONTREAL (CP) — Gerald Merrithew, federal minister of state for forests, said Tuesday he will be asking cabinet for more funds for reforestation, and called on his audience of pulp and paper executives to back him up.While the industry is enjoying its best-ever times, delegates at the convention of the Canadian Pulp and Paper Association were warned that in the short-to-medium term, there will be a scarcity of trees for pulp.The ominous date when annual demand is expected to exceed supply is 1995.In most provinces, said Lome Parnell, director of corporate planning at Consolidated-Bathurst Inc., forests are not increasing fast enough to replace trees taken by harvesting, insects and fires.Alberta and British Columbia have a slight excess capacity, but in both provinces new pulp machines may soon cause demand to exceed the supply.The industry and federal and provincial governments have recently undertaken massive treeplanting programs, but those trees won’t be ready for harvest for 50 years.“We have enough wood to sustain us at current use,” said Parnell in an interview.“My concern is how to maintain market share in the international community.” There is already a trend towards new pulp-producing countries increasing their share at the expense of the traditional producers — North America and Northern Europe.The main new producers include Brazil, which for the past decade has been developing the fastgrowing eucalyptus tree, Chile, Portugal and South Africa.The Canadian market share decreased to 34 per cent in 1985 from 55 per cent in 1950, while the newcomers’ share has grown to 22 per cent from four per cent in 1950.In the short and medium term, said Parnell, the only option for Canadian companies is to make sure they’re as cost competitive as possible.This means protecting existing woodstands from fires and insects and making them grow faster.Another option is to invest abroad, in countries where trees grow faster.Meanwhile, business could not be better.Parnell noted that seven Canadian pulp and i^per companies each made profits in excess of $100 million last year.New capital spending is expected to be $6.8 billion this year, up 25 per cent over last year.Merrithew and other speakers acknowledged that the image of forest companies has to improve.New body may decide on postal rate hikes By Dave Blaikie OTTAWA (CP) — The government appears to want an independent body to take over the thankless task of deciding periodic postal rate increases — the same method used to determine telephone charges.The federal cabinet now approves postal rates on advice from Canada Post.A formal discussion paper recommending the change was released Tuesday by Harvie Andre, the minister who reports to Parliament for Canada Post.Andre stopped short of formally endorsing the idea, saying he wants to hear first from postal users, but he made clear he likes it a lot.“As Canada Post matures and mail volumes grow, (the post office) must be more responsive to its customers, with a more open system of regulatory control,” Andre said.‘‘A true arm’s-length forum where Canadians’ concerns about postal rates can be registered, heard and dealt with responsibly would be a marked improvement in postal affairs.” Postal rates have gone up three times since the Conservatives were elected in 1984 — from 32 cents to 37 cents for a first-class stamp — and each time the gover- nment has taken a drubbing in the court of public opinion.Canada Post has said nothing publicly about the prospect of third-party regulation.“Obviously we’re very interested,” media officer David Newman said Tuesday.“We will be following the debate closely as it takes place.” The discussion paper, ordered by Andre a year ago and prepared by his department, says independent scrutiny of postal rates and services has worked well in the United States, Britain and Australia.“Introduction of a third-party review agency in Canada could make a similarly significant contribution to the development of the nation’s postal service,” the paper says.“By providing a forum for public involvement and an official channel for complaints, it would curb the growing problem of political involvement in the day-to-day operations of the postal service.It could also promote financial responsibility and market sensitivity in services and rates.” While enthusiastic about the principle of independent regulation, the paper does not say what kind of regulatory body would work best or how much authority it should be.#1____foci tfecnra George MecLeren, Publisher.Randy Klnnear, Assistant Publisher.Charles Bury, Tditor.Lloyd G.Schelb, Advertising Manager .Richard Lessard,

Circulation News-in-brief French may cycle to Montreal MONTREAL (CP) — City officials met Tuesday with representatives of the Tour de France in a bid to land the initial stages of the fabled cycling race in 1992 as part of the city’s 350th anniversary celebrations.Mayor Jean Dore said he would reveal the city’s plan later this week, but Jean-Francois Naquet Radiguet, the director general of the Tour, said he was enthusiastic about bringing the race to Montreal “It would be a stimulating and ambitious adventure that reminds us of our passage through Berlin five years ago,” said Naquet-Radiguet.He said Montreal was chosen because of France’s cultural ties to Quebec and because “1992 is a symbolic year for France and Montreal and it’s our way of sending our congratulations.” Ships can get on with it MONTREAL (CP) — The St.Lawrence Seaway officially opened on Tuesday as cooperative winds blew away heavy ice which had blocked several ships at the eastern end of Lake Erie.The opening was marked with a ceremony at the St.Lambert locks at Montreal, but several ships which winter at Port Colborne, Ont.had already been through some grinding battles getting out of port at the other end of the seaway.New dads can collect benefits OTTAWA (CP) — New fathers can collect maternity benefits if their babies’ mothers die or become disabled and mothers of premature or ill newborns can defer their benefits under a bill that became law Tuesday.The bill, retroactive to last March, received royal assent after the Senate passed it quickly through all three stages, mirroring the treatment the bill received in the Commons last Wednesday.Employment Minister Benoit Bouchard enacted the changes two weeks ago, after widespread publicity about parents in both situations.John Mclnnis of Kitchener, Ont., came to Ottawa earlier this year with a personal plea to the minister, complaining of discrimination because he wanted to care for his baby daughter.The child’s mother was declared brain dead when she was eight months’ pregnant and was kept on life support until the baby was born.U.S.considers reactor appeal OTTAWA (CP) — The U.S.Nuclear Regulatory Commission is considering an appeal from four MPs of a decision to build a controversial Chernobyl-type reactor just upwind from one of the most densely populated regions of Canada, Liberal House leader Herb Gray said Tuesday.The MPs filed their appeal last month, claiming the commission’s own studies show it may be impossible to operate the reactor safely.In spite of those studies, the commission issued a licence Jan.15 that would allow Detroit Edison Co.to start generating power at the reactor in Monroe, Mich., 60 kilometres southwest of Windsor, Ont.Rejected by his own cat OTTAWA (CP) — A lonely man began killing cats out of frustration after his own cat rejected him, an Ottawa court heard Monday.Judge Jean-Pierre Beaulne of provincial court gave Craig Farkas, 25.the maximum $2,000 fine and placed him on three years of probation after he pleaded guilty to killing nine cats in Nepean, Ont., between January and May last year.Farkas admitted killing up to 22 cats in Ottawa and Nepean during that time.He was also ordered to do 100 hours of community service in Calgary, where he now lives with his mother.The courtroom was filled with men and women whose cats mysteriously disappeared last year.At least three women cried during proceedings.Clark plays down report OTTAWA (CP) — External Affairs Minister Joe Clark played down today a report that five directors on the 40-member board of his Alberta riding association have quit over dissatisfaction with the federal government.“That's really an old story,” the Yellowhead MP said on his way into a meeting of the inner cabinet.“It’s been revived by a new interview.” The five have defected to the four-month-old Reform Party of Canada and one of them, Frank Florkewich, told the Winnipeg Free Press more may follow.Hansen gets Order of Canada OTTAWA (CP) — Rick Hansen, the wheelchair athlete whose world tour to aid spinal-cord research inspired millions, accepted Canada’s top honor Tuesday while gently declining the hero’s mantle.“I think that I’m just the average person who just had the very good fortune to realize his own dreams,” Hansen said after he was invested into the Order of Canada by Gov.Gen.Jeanne Sauve.“I’d hate to see the hero image outweigh the fact that Rick Hansen is a real person and just like anyone else around here,” he told reporters.But Hansen smiled proudly as Sauve hung the red-and-white medallion around his neck during a brief ceremony in the stately salon of Rideau Hall.His wife of five months, Amanda, a physiotherapist who worked on his 26-month, 34-country tour, stood beside him.Oil refinery burns again COME BY CHANCE, Nfld.(CP) — The third fire in seven months at the Come By Chance oil refinery sent two people to hospital early Tuesday with superficial burns.RCMP said a furnace in one section of the refinery caught fire and flared up but quickly went out.The two injured workers were treated in hospital at nearby Clarenville and later sent home.Police and fire investigators were at the scene trying to determine the cause of the flash fire.The Come By Chance refinery is owned by a U.S.firm, Newfoundland Processing Ltd., and went into full production last fall after being closed for a decade.Oyster compensation CARAQUET, N.B.(CP) — Oyster packers from northeastern New Brunswick have asked Ottawa for $215,000 in compensation for last year’s federal ban on East Coast shellfish.Francois Blanchard, president of a group representing 300 area processors, said Tuesday a $2.5-million federal program to revive the image of the shellfish industry won’t affect local producers.“The $2.5 million does not address our problems,” he said.“It’s primarily aimed at helping those in the mussel industry in P.E.I.” Ottawa imposed the ban last December when more than 100 people became ill from eating toxic mussels from Prince Edward Island.Two people died.Deportation hearing adjourned HAMILTON (CP) — A deportation hearing for convicted Palestinian terrorist Mahmoud Mohammad Issa Mohammad was adjourned indefinitely on Tuesday after federal immigration officers appeared unready to present their case.Case officers Alex Luhowy and Susan Leith asked for an adjournment because they said an expert witness in their case against Mohammad was unavailable.Men offer reward for proof NIPIGON, Ont.(CP) — A Roman Catholic men’s group has offered a $10,000 reward to the first scientist to disprove the belief that human life begins at concepion.The Nipigon-Red Rock Knights of Columbus publicized the reward with recent newspaper and radio advertisements in this Northern Ontario town, about 90 kilometres east of Thunder Bay.Manitobans choose leader WINNIPEG (CP) — Delegates to the Manitoba NDP leadership convention won’t only be choosing a new leader this evening, they’ll also be selecting a new premier — at least until the April 26 general election.Premier Howard Pawley will resign today and advise Lt.-Gov.George Johnson to appoint the new NDP leader as premier, said Garth Cramer, a media aide to Pawley.25% will vote against trade deal WASHINGTON (CP) — Up to a quarter of the U.S.House of Representatives will vote against the free-trade deal unless Canada scraps a subsidy program that could harm the American textile industry, says a Georgia congressman.Ed Jenkins said Tuesday most of the 115-member textile caucus — a quarter of the House membership — will oppose the trade pact unless Ottawa withdraws a plan announced last week that offers tariff rebates so Canadian clothing companies can become more competitive.Dole quits campaign WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican Bob Dole ended his campaign for U.S.president Tuesday, saying he was “bloodied but unbowed” by a series of primary losses.Dole bowed out before an audience of Senate and House of Representatives colleagues and offered congratulations to George Bush, the all-but-anointed Republican nominee.“My friends know that I am a fighter; I don t like to lose,” the Senate Republican leader said."I have been beaten before, and no doubt will be again.But I have never been defeated and never will be.” Dole, a Kansas senator, had indicated for days he was ready to quit.Swaggart ordered not to preach SPRINGFIELD, Mo.(AP) —Fiery evangelist Jimmy Swaggart was ordered Tuesday not to preach from the pulpit or his television show for at least a year while he is rehabilitated from “moral failure.” The transgression is reported to have included paying a prostitute to pose nude.In announcing its decision, the Assemblies of God elders disregarded a more lenient three-month suspension recommended by the church in Louisiana.The national church included provisions for two years of rehabilitation and counselling to begin when Swaggart has agreed to rehabilitation in writing.U.S.soldiers parachute home FORT BRAGG, N.C.(AP) - More than 700 members of the U.S.army’s 82nd airborne division staged a showy finale to their mission in Honduras by parachuting into their home base while wives, children and officers cheered.The paratroopers piled out of seven C-141 transport planes Monday, filling the sky with olive-drab parachutes.“We were watched by everyone in the world, and everyone was impressed,” Lt.-Gen.John Foss told the paratroopers lined up in formation after the drop.“I want you to know I’m very proud of you,” Foss continued.“Twelve days ago, Nicaraguan forces had entered Honduras.Now .there are no Nicaraguan forces in that country and a ceasefire exists.” ANC rep killed in France PARIS (CP) — An anti-apartheid activist, found shot to death Tuesday, had told police she had received death threats and was being followed, a colleague said.The body of Dulcie September, the African National Congress representative for France, Switzerland and Luxembourg, was found in her central Paris apartment building where she also maintained an office for the ANC — the main black guerrilla group opposing the South African government.Police said the killing looked like ‘ ‘the work of a professional.” September, 45, was shot in the face while entering her office about 9 a.m., the French news agency Agence France-Presse reported.Soldiers kill four in gunfight JOHANNESBURG (Reuter) — South African soldiers killed four suspected guerrillas in a gunfight near the northern border with Zimbabwe, a military spokesman said today.The incident—the third since Friday in which a total of 11 alleged African National Congress guerrillas have been killed — happened Monday afternoon, army spokesman Brig.F.Botha said.He said soldiers tracked seven men from just south of the Zimbabwe border toward the nominally independent homeland of Venda, killing four and wounding one.The rest escaped.The incident took place within hours of a previously reported pre-dawn South African army raid on an alleged ANC stronghold in neighboring Botswana.Soldiers killed three women and a man in the raid.Children police

Milôt said.Milôt also argued that in a Superior Court ruling in December 1986.the judge who stayed his request for the transfer had erred in his assessment of the case."The judge said there was not enough evidence to try the juvenile in adult court.” the prosecutor said."At that time 1 had still not presented all the evidence required for this case." STILL NOT FIT?Defence attorneys Jean Petit and Alain Beland argued the juvenile must remain where he is because he is still not fit for adult Mozambique, Angola.Zimbabwe and Namibia.And encourage western citizens to urge their elected officials to pressure Pretoria through economic and political sanctions — to disolve apartheid and pull its armies out of neighboring countries.“We want to remind people about that,” he said, “and to urge them to tell their governments to do something about that.” Uirab toured Britain before coming to Canada.Escorting him on his journey through the Eastern Townships was Bishop’s alumni David Smith, of Sherbrooke’s Car refour de Solidarité Internationale.an affiliate of the provincewide support group Afriquebec Smith, who will be returning to Mozambique in two months to help with a Canadian relief project, led court They cited two psychological studies of the accused which class! fy him as an infant bordering on adolescence despite his present age of 20 "He is not an adult." said Petit."Sure, the sentences could be different if he is convicted as a juvenile But that is the choice federal le gislators made when they drafted the Young Offenders Act." Beland argued that if convicted as a juvenile, the accused would benefit from smaller provincial institutions rather than a large pe nitentiary for adult offenders NO GUARANTEES?"In a juvenile home he would get close supervision and therapy if he needed it.In a large prison there is a postcard crusade while back in the Townships.The idea was to send Foreign Affairs Minister Joe Clark bundles of postcards suppor ting total economic sanctions against South Africa.He urged Townshippers to get in touch at (8191 566-8595 Twelve per cent of Namibia's gross national product goes to blacks, who comprise 92 per cent of the country's 1.4 million people.The infant mortality rate is eight times as high for blacks as for whites.And schooling, which costs money starting at Grade 1, is too expensive for most.It is legal to wear a SWAPO (South West African People’s Organiza tion) T-shirt, for example, even though the SWAPO party is outlawed.But police have the right to detain anyone for 30 days, without no guarantee that you'll even be seen twice a week by a competent counsellor," Beland said The juvenile sat through the hearing.accompanied by two supervisors from the Shawbridge youth centre, a Laurentians home for young offenders where he is presently kept He had no reaction to the arguments since he apparently does not understand French Milôt later said this will be his final attempt to have the juvenile transferred.But he did not rule out an appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada if he can find errors in the Court of Appeal decision.That is expected in about two months.- Namibian trial or reason, if they suspect the person of threatening the country, “During the 30days they can torture you or whatever they want," he said as calmly as most Canadians talk about grocery shopping.“And after that 30 days, they can extend it if they want to." As a member of the SWAPO Youth League, Uirab says he wants what is fair for the majority of people in his country — as well as in the rest of southern Africa.He hopes for the day when a democratic all y elected government, comprising blacks and whites, can fairly govern his desert nation, rich in diamonds, uranium oxide and base metals.“1 think things are promising," said Uirab, “that sooner or later we will see independence in our lifetime.” Fight for African freedom is worth taking risks Old-folks home, condos on the line Sunday Cliff faces two zoning votes SHERBROOKE (RL) — The municipality of Ayer's Cliff will be holding two zoning referendums on Sunday May 8.Residents affected by the controversial zoning changes 2-88 and 3-88 will be able to vote at the town hall between 9 a.m.and 7 p m.Under provincial law any Canadian who has been living three months in the zones affected are automatically eligible to vote.The 2-88 zoning modification would allow’ construction of an old folks home on the block formed by Ripple Cove Road, Laurel, Maple and Strathcona Streets.At a public meeting earlier this month citizens of the area objected to the construction of the home because they want the neighborhood to stay residential.Out of 78 residents entitled to vote, 34 registered for the referendum.Only 19 signatures would have forced the vote.ROW HOUSES The second zoning change involves the proposed construction of condominium row-housing worth $1,300.000.Out of 460 taxpayers eligible to vote on this zoning change 84 signed the register to force a referendum.It would have taken only 54 signatures to force the vote.Ayer’s Cliff Mayor Walter G.Hayward said earlier this week that he is confident voting will be in favor of the zoning changes.The proposals were part of a similar vote held in 1987 but the zoning package sought at that time was in combination writh industrial development and it was soundly rejected.This time the town is holding separate referendums.If the zoning changes are rejected again, Hayward said town council can’t do any more about it.But he said that if the projects don’t go through, “in four or five years when the taxes hit the roof then citizens will start complaining.” Cow skull in the G: ‘We’re just a bunch of guys having a good time’ BU Brotherhood boys bump bacon by the bridge By Melanie Gruer SHERBROOKE — The Society for the Protection of Animals wants an inquiry into an incident Friday in which a Bishop’s University group floated dead pigs down the St.Francis River.But the boys of the Brotherhood say you can’t harm a porker that’s already dead.SPA president Paulina Grant says the animal-welfare group will investigate the incident.Friday morning at about 3a.m.under the bridge near the university, new recruits to the Bishop’s Brotherhood tied two pigs to poles attached to a raft.The pigs were clad in sweaters from a university sorority and fraternity, said Wally Zatylny, a Brotherhood spokesman.The raft was rocked from one side of the river to the other and eventually one of the young pigs — undesireable ‘runts’ which would have been destroyed anyway — came loose and floated downstream.“ALREADY DEAD’ “The pigs were already dead when we got them,” Zatylny said in an interview.The Brotherhood boys had been given the pigs by a local farmer.Zatylny said initation into the Brotherhood involves playing pranks on the sorority and frater nity.“We got the pigs and mocked them that way,” he said.Grant said the pig recovered by the SPA had died from a blow to the head.But she said she didn’t know who had killed it.She said it may have been the work of a local abattoir.Zatylny said none of the Brotherhood members or recruits would have killed a pig for a stunt, “It’s a shame it’s gotten out of hand," he said of the story circulating in town.Grant said the pig had been nailed to the raft.Zatylny said he thought the animals had been tied to the poles.“I don’t know," he said.PRANKS AND THINGS “It’s all part of the initiation pro cess.We do pranks and things like that,” the three year member of the group said “It’s not the first time something like this has happened,” Grant said.“There have been incidents in the past.I'm worried it’s part of a growing trend.” Grant said she wants to “nip the incident in the bud” before other pranks occur involving animals.“Part of the education process should involve the aspect of humane education and respect for all living things,” she said.“Locals are intimidated by the Brotherhood,” Grant said.But they shouldn’t be, Zatylny replied.“People get the idea we re a sa distic group but we just want to have fun,” Zatylny said.“A BUNCH OF GUYS’ "We're not a bad group.We’re just a bunch of guys having a good time," he said.Grant said she had also heard rumors the Brotherhood paraded through a local bar with a cow's head.Zatylny said Brotherhood recruits had taken a 20-year-old cow’s skull to the Georgian Hotel bar, also as part of the initiation.Bishop’s Principal Dr.Hugh Scott said he had heard many versions of the story.“If we do anything about it it will be to find out exactly what happened.The rumors range from the bizarre to the fantastic It would depend on what we learned.” Scott said he isn’t sure what kind of jurisdiction the university has over events off campus involving students, Zatylny said the Brotherhood has between 25 and 30 student members and no particular animals.Booklet for cabbies gives hints on how City taxis to improve service for the ) SALLE PE PANSE)> 0 CE N EST PAS TOI QUE |E VAIS RECONDUIRE CE SOIR! Thanks to this new booklet, Sherbrooke taxidrivers will soon know more about giving the handicapped a lift.SHERBROOKE (MHG) — City taxi drivers will soon be equipped with a pocket guide to the special needs of handicapped passengers.While the booklet, entitled Guide du Chauffeur de Taxi pour le transport aux personnes handicapées, is currently only available in French, it will soon be translated into English, said a leader of one of the three groups sponsoring the booklet.France Coutu of the Regroupement des usagers du transport adapté de Sherbrooke métropolitain (RUTA) said the book will help establish a better understanding between the taxi driver and the handicapped client.Coutu said that like most “normal” people, cabbies are reluctant to deal with the handicapped because “well, they are — somehow — different.” “People can have all kinds of goodwill towards the handicapped, but they don't know how to take the first step — to overcome their shyness,” she said.“We want to help with that.” WHAT KIND OF HELP The new guide tells taxi drivers the behavior patterns of those with intellectual, sensory and motor handicaps.It explains what kind of help their passenger will need.For example, the guide says intellectually handicapped passengers may have trouble expressing themselves and understanding the driver.But they usually have a friendly manner and appreciate the smallest amount of attention.The guide suggests taxi drivers speak slowly and clearly in a normal voice to the intellectually handicapped, and repeat the sentence, making sure the passenger has understood clearly.The guide also tells drivers how handicapped to fold up a wheelchair and how to treat a seeing-eye dog.The booklet is only a beginning, said Jacques Demers of the Coro-poration Métropolitaine de Transport Sherbrooke (CUTS).“This initiative will enable us to introduce a training course specifically for taxi drivers who will transport handicapped people.” SECOND CITY In 1980 the CMTS incorporated mini buses for the handicapped.In 1982, Demers said, business continued to grow and the mass transit corporation included taxis as part of its transport service for the handicapped “This made Sherbrooke the second city in Quebec to set up such a service,” he said.“The objectives at the time were to rationalize the costs of this type of transport and to better the quality of services by providing a greater accessibility to this type of transport,” Demers said.31% BY CAB Demers said that today those objectives have been met.“Taxis Sherbrooke Inc., provided 31 per cent of the total rides given to the handicapped.That’s a little more than 20,700 rides on a total of 67,700.” Serge Clément, president of Sherbrooke Taxi, says he thinks the guide is a very positive tool and the company’s drivers are all anxious to do better when driving handicapped passengers.Clement also said some of the cabbies will take the course the CMTS has promised to offer sometime this year.The book is sponsored by RUTA, the Association de Sherbrooke pour 1’integration sociale and the Association des handicapées visuels de TEstrie.Easter Specials SMOKED LEG HAM Nichol s kg 3.28 ib 1.49 FRESH

the Eastern Townships since 1897 Editorial A word that bothered a few Never was an issue so clouded by one word.When Official Languages Commissioner D'Iberville Fortier said that Quebec’s anglophones are “humiliated”.Everyone went crazy, except of course for English-speaking Quebecers who have known this reality all along.Watching the reactions to this statement was telling.The prime minister, ever cautious of losing precious votes in an upcoming election, said very little.This is mildly surprising for someone who is an English-speaking Quebecer himself.Seeing Mulroney speak to Quebec Tories last weekend was sickening.Go for votes by all means, but at the expense of snubbing your own people?John Turner and Ed Broadbent?Broadbent added that if any minority was humiliated it was francophones outside Quebec.This of course is true.Nevertheless it still rings of another politician trying to break into the profitable Quebec market.Turner never said a thing.Of all the reactions, the Quebec government’s was the most brillant.The provincial Liberals successfully clouded the issue by playing up the one controversial word.They were so successful they got all 23 of their anglophone MNAs to vote to centure Fortier for his comments.The irony of this is that 95 per cent of the language report dealt with francophones outside Quebec.A francophone Alberta MLA not being able to use his language in a bilingual country is proof of linguistic “humiliation.” So are unilingual signs in Quebec.No other province restricts francophones from putting up bilingual signs.In his fourth year as language commissioner Fortier decided to notice the problems of the anglophone community in Quebec —part of his mandate along with the problems of minority francophone communities — and all hell broke lose.So what if he used a word that bothered a few people.The truth often hurts.Unfortunately what this whole issue boils down to is something the anglophones of this province have been facing for a while: no one gives a damn about them.JACK BRANSWELL - 1 — ,' >¦ Hilzinger: It’s what’s left that counts SAULT STE.MARIE, Ont.(CP) — Amputee Karl Hilzinger tries to help disabled young people by telling them “it’s what’s left that counts.” Hilzinger, the silver-suited skier seen leading a group of child amputees down a hill in War Amps television commercials, is physical education consultant to The War Amputations of Canada.He travels across the country offering seminars and inspiration to members of the CHAMP program, an athletics program for children with missing limbs.Being a double-leg amputee meant a difficult adjustment for this former Canadian Football League all-star, but he has learned to ski again and play golf.“Everybody has adisability,” he said.“Live now and enjoy it.” Hilzinger lost his legs in 1964 when the car he was riding in went out of control and struck a hydro pole that supported four transformers.Dazed from the collision, he stumbled from the car and fell across several live wires — 50,000 volts surged through his body.COMES CLOSE Doctors told him they “lost him” five times after he arrived at the hospital.When he regained consciousness and realized what had happened, he asked: “Why didn’t you take all of me?” After asking “Why me?” for a year, Hilzinger says, he saw himself in a mirror and decided he didn't like the person he had become.This was the beginning of recovery, he recalls.Within a year he was out of the hospital and on his way to an active life.His first convert was a teenage boy who lost his will to live after an accident left him paralysed from the waist down.In a visit to the hospital, Hilzinger asked a nurse to give the boy a photograph of himself modeling bathing suits before his car accident.After the boy had seen the picture, Hilzinger went into the room and showed him what was left.The shock jolted the boy out of his depression and he became a survivor.Today.Hilzinger travels across Canada motivating and encouraging people he meets.Sporting a tailored shirt with one long sleeve and one short sleeve, a fashion he designed himself, he reminds those around him how happy he feels to be alive.“I try to do the best I can all the time,” he says.Did you know that.CROSS STRAIT About 200,000 walruses swim across the Bering Strait each May to spend the summer in the seas north of Siberia, Alaska and

said Margo Michaud, vice-president of the association.She’s not encouraged after the throne speech outlining government plans for the spring sitting made no mention of the issue.PRAISES RULING She still celebrates the court victory, despite the uncertainty.“The (francophone) population perhaps doesn’t make daily use of the courts or the legislature, but these are still essential institutions,” she said.“Essential in the same way that they are essential to the anglophone population.” The association hopes that bilingual legislation will some day be a matter of course.Of the two rulings, the one on schools may have the greatest impact.There are three French schools in the province, in Regina.Saskatoon and Prince Alberta, but they are run by local, English-dominated school boards.The association hopes that control will also mean more schools.French-speakers who live far from one of the existing schools have poor options.If the ruling on schools carries a potential for problems, Michaud doesn’t worry: “Really, the response of the public to the recent rulings has been very positive.Ithinkthatthere’s been a real change in the attitude amongst the English population.” Michaud and Laçasse say the most tangible result of the court rulings may be the encouragement they give francophones to keep up the fight.Journalist arrested in Panama:‘That chilled me’ The writer was arrested Monday during a military raid on the Marriott Hotel in Panama City By Richard Cole PANAMA CITY (AP) — For three hours Monday, I was detained by soldiers who stormed the Marriott Hotel to arrest opposition leaders and journalists.During that time, my notes were seized and I was herded into a sports field with other reporters for a lecture on Panama’s crisis.I was arrested at the hotel after covering a protest march broken up Monday by Panamanian Defence Forces troops shooting shotguns and tear gas.After getting mildly tear-gassed, I returned to the hotel and heard that soldiers had arrested opposition leader Carlos Ernesto de la Lastra, whom I had interviewed during the march.I ran upstairs to call the local Associated Press office, but could not get a line out.When I went downstairs, I found the lower two floors of the hotel in chaos.Armed troops had occupied the ground floor and civilian security agents were running around the second floor, where the National Civic Crusade, a leading opposition coalition, is based.An agent saw me, grabbed me by the back of my belt, and marched me down the stairwell and out into a van.Eventually 10 people, some of them beaten on the back with chains, were crammed into the small van.FOLLOWED ORDERS We were taken to the G-2 intelligence division next to the headquarters of the Defence Forces headed by Gen.Manuel Antonio Noriega.We were told to be quiet and stand with our arms against the wall, which we did.We were searched, and the interrogators displayed great interest in notes from the demonstration I had on sheets of paper still stuffed in my shirt pocket, as well as my notebook.They took all my notes and my passport and told me they were going to be photocopied.An unidentified man asked me: “Do you ever write anything good, or just bad things?” Eventually my notes and passport were returned, just as a group of several other journalists arrested in and around the hotel arrived.Without being told anything, we were packed into another van and taken to what turned out to be the military baseball field.That chilled me and Abidel Vivan-cos, a Mexican with ABC-TV.We remembered that many of those who had disappeared in Chile after the 1973 military coup were taken to the local soccer field beforehand.“The first thing I thought of was Chile,” Vivancos said.At the field, about 40 detained people were being interviewed.None of the top crusade leaders were there, but I later found out many of them had been arrested as well.Two Panamanians were caked in blood.After half an hour standing in line, the military officials separated the fo reign journalists.Eight of us were put in a line together.ANY QUESTIONS?Then, in a bizarre pseudo news conference in Spanish, Maj.Felipe Camargo complained to us about the “disinformation” of the international press, saying we were responsible for Panama’s disastrous situation.He told us to tell the world that it was only the upper class protesting, not the common people, even though the protest march had included many working-class people.“Tell the truth,” Camargo said.“This is a class struggle.” He also told us strict instructions had been given not to arrest journalists, but all of us told him we had identified ourselves and been arrested anyway.This he shrugged off.Camargo eventually told us we were not under arrest and would not be expelled from the country.He added that he would read the newspapers to see if we told the truth about the incident.Camargo then apologized for not having a taxi to take us back to the hotel and asked if we would mind riding in a police van.We agreed quickly, and by 9 p.m.three hours after I was arrested, the eight of us were dropped off in front of the hotel.Deterrence strategists say weapons should never be used “We cannot avoid the serious and unacceptable risk of nuclear war until we recognize that nuclear weapons serve no military purpose whatever.They are totally useless except to de-terone’sopponentsfrom using them.’’ — Robert McNamara, Blundering into Disaster Robert McNamara is the father of the nuclear strategies we now live by.As U.S.secretary of defence for several years under Presidents Kennedy and Johnson, at the time when the present doctrines were being forged, he enshrined concepts like ‘Mutual Assured Destruction’ and Flexible Response' at the heart of NATO strategy.Early this month in Brussels, the NATO summit spent most of its time wrangling about how many new nuclear weapons, of which kinds, should be introduced to ‘compensate’ for those to be removed under the INF treaty.But McNamara himself has finally recanted.In his last book, he came right out and said it flatly: nuclear weapons are militarily useless.It comes to most of us in the end.I have never been anybody’s Secretary of Defence, but I was once a labourer in that particular vineyard.My own little defection came about 15 years ago, when 1 was senior lecturer in war studies at the Sandhurst Royal Military Academy in England.I used to patronise the International Institute for Strategic Studies in London a lot, and afterwards l would often go for a drink with my good friend Rick Burt.In those days there was not much to Gwynne Dyer choose between us : we were both fascinated by nuclear strategy.I had spent about 10 years thinking about questions of nuclear strategy, mostly in military environments, and was just about to embark on an unpromising career as a freelance journalist.Rick was already a very successful journalist who had specialised in defence matters, and would soon move into government: he subsequently became assistant secretary of state for European affairs, and is now U.S.ambassador to West Germany.And it was to him that I confessed my loss of faith We were in the raucous downstairs bar of the pub near the Institute late one afternoon when I suddenly burst out: "Rick, I think I’m becoming a minimum deterrence man.” He probably wouldn’t remember it now, but he looked quite appalled, as if I had suddenly confessed to an irresistible attraction to little boys.The strategy of minimum dette- rence’ starts from the conviction the nuclear weapons must never be used.It would be better simply to abolish them, but if that’s impossible in present circumstances, then they should be reserved solely for retaliation against a direct nuclear attack on your own country.That degree of deterrence may be necessary, but it should be national policy never to use nuclear weapons first under any circumstances.Any other military objectives a government wishes to pursue (like the defence of Western Europe, in the U.S.case) should not involve any reliance on nuclear weapons, for otherwise the risk of nuclear war becomes unacceptably great.For all I know, Rick Burt may agree with me by now (and if he doesn’t, maybe it’s because I’m wrong and he’s right).But I had finally been driven to the conclusion that there is no way of fitting nuclear weapons into a rational foreign policy: in the real world of emotional people, bad communications and unreliable machines, it could not be done.I am in good company.At a rough estimate, of the couple of dozen people who have had the greatest impact on the evolution of Western nuclear strategy over the past four decades, about half have eventually given up the attempt to turn nuclear weapons into a usable instrument of military power.some defections from the true faith have been spectacular, like Daniel Ellsberg's.Some have been darkly subversive, like that of the late Herman Kahn, who wrote the vast sub- Clausewitzian tome called On Thermonuclear War’ as his farewell to the field.(Kahn’s former editor, Jim Wade, swears that his real intention was to satirise orthodox thinking on nuclear strategy — but the strategy is so crazy anyway that most people missed the point.) And some simply fell silent, as Bernard Brodie did toward the end of his life.It was Brodie, in the winter of 1945-46, who invented the entire concept of nuclear deterrence, and concluded that ‘minimum deterrence’ was the only sane policy.Yet he subsequently helped to work out the NATO doctrine of ‘flexible response' (first use of nuclear weapons in Europe), which directly contradicts his own conclusions.He explained to me in 1978 that he had been sucked into it partly by the sheer seductiveness of the intellectual problem — and partly by the belief that if the soldiers were really determined to make nuclear weapons ‘usable’, an effort should be made to inject as much rationality as possible into their plans.In the end, however, Brodie returned to his original conviction that only minimum deterrence’ was safe.(He was ostracised by many of his colleagues for his heresy.)

AIDS victims can stay in school KITCHENER.Ont.(CP) — Teachers and students who contract AIDS will stay in the region’s separate schools unless they are incapacitated, says a policy passed by the board Monday.The policy states there is no risk of the transmission of AIDS among children and staff in "the everyday social contact setting of the school environment.” “We’re likely the first school board in Ontario to approve this policy and I’m very proud of this board,” said Chuck Yates, chairman of the Waterloo Region Separate School Board, following an unanimous vote.The policy covers both those with acquired immune deficiency syndrome and individuals who have become infected with the virus that causes AIDS.It states no student, teacher or other employee will be identified to the board unless their health dictates.Then, it’s the decision of the regional medical officer of health, who is notified of people who have tested positive for the virus, as to when to tell the board of the individual’s identity.In the case of a student, he or she “may have reached a point where the illness is so severe that they are very susceptible to other diseases and will easily contract them,” curriculum superintendent Tony Truscello said in an interview.HEALTH ADVICE At that time, the medical officer of health may advise the child needs to be educated at home or hospital, he said.“The board policy is saying even at that point we don’t abandon the student.We will follow up and set up that instruction and make sure they get it,” Truscello said.AIDS is a deadly disease which attacks the body’s immune system, making it vulnerable to other infections.“We really are placing full confidence in the local medical officer of health who is also following the medical advice of the Ontario and federal governments," Truscello said.Employees with the virus have the right to continue working as long as they can meet customary job performance standards.If they’re too ill to continue, they’ll have full access to sick leave and medical benefits and any other provisions in their collective agreement.The policy says the board will take “every possible precaution” to ensure the individual’s identity is protected.Truscello said the board wants to avoid subjecting anyone to the treatment accorded Nova Scotia teacher Eric Smith, who was removed from his Grade 6 classroom on Cape Sable Island after the news he had the virus leaked into the community.Kiddie Korner WHEELY WORDS Circle all of the hidden bicycle words in the word search.When you finish, the letters not circled will form a secret message.Write it on the lines below.light frame spokes handlebars pedals saddle seat chain crossbar bicycle tricycle ?unicycle tire wheel rim gears bell safety w F H E N w L I 6 H T s R Y 0 U H S R A E G H A N D L E B A R S E R M D I D E E I I N L A E B D I L T K FI I C P E D A L S E 0 B A Y L E Y Y T E F A S H C L A R A B S S 0 R C I E L L S P 0 K E S R N B I C Y C L E U A L U E S E L C Y C I R T i ;s3|nj ne Xaqo aspq b apu noX uaq^ uaMSuy CYCLE CIRCLE Use the clues to find the bike words for this bicycle wheel.The last letter of each word will be the first letter of the next word.1 a circular ring connected by spokes to a hub 2 bright illumination needed when riding at night 3.saddle of bike;

Stick a metal skewer in one end of the egg and roll the egg in the chocolate.Place on waxed paper to firm.Do not refrigerate immediately as this will cause the chocolate to crack THE BEST PART The decoration is the final stage and the one children like the best.For this you need a stiff, thick frosting, colored in light yellows, pinks and greens, which will show up well on the dark chocolate coating.A more expensive but quicker al temative is to buy the ready-made frostings that come in plastic tubes Buy the smallest tubes available — they are easier for small hands to manipulate.Children can write initials, draw little scenes or make geometric patterns to decorate the eggs.To further dress up the candy, stick jelly beans, colorful candy beads or sprinkles on to the frosting.These eggs make memorable gifts when placed inside tiny wicker baskets, which cost about 50 cents at novelty shops.Easter seals are doing a good job By Susan Griffin Whether they actually apply Easter Seals to cards and letters, many Canadians make the donations to provincial Easter Seal societies when a sheet of the stickers arrives in the mail each March.Since the introduction of the Easter Seal program to Canada in 1945, beginning with Alberta, public generosity has been making a world of difference to the lives of thousands of disabled children across the country, society officials say.Paul H.King, then-president of the national society in the United States, originated the idea of selling Easter Seals in 1934.As he put it, “Thoughts of Easter and the crippled child harmonize wonderfully.Easter means Resurrection and New Life, and the rehabilitation of crippled children means new life and activity, complete or partial, physically, mentally and spiritually.” The goal of Easter Seal societies remains much the same, although some terminology has changed.“Disabled” has virtually replaced the word “crippled,” a change indicative of the positive approach being taken, focusing on the fact that there are many physical activities in which handicapped children can participate given the opportunity.FOCUS ON ABILITY The current campaign, with its slogan “When you back a fighter, you make it come true,” underscores the point.“The graphics — disabled children taking part in a school play, or taking swimming lessons — illustrate the tremendous potential ability of these children, rather than the disability,” says Christine Archibald of Easter Seals Canada.“It’s a very positive statement," agrees David Thom, director of national fundraising programs.“We do not want to evoke pity for the children it ’s not appropriate.We prefer to show people how their contributions are actually helping.“The message is, that with (pu blic) help, these kids can be involved in all sorts of activities right alongside children with no physical disabilities, and that integration is one of our main goals.” Other goals include the furthering of research and preventive education.Current programs like Bike Smart, focusing on cycling safety to reduce head injuries, and Safe Passage, directed at pregnant mothers, are just two examples of the societies’ wide-ranging im pact.8uiiepad 9 dois ç sajp »

annual CBC community cohsultation organized by the Que bcjc Farmers’ Association on Mfarch 18.TheTownshippers’ delegation consisted of Heather Keith-R^an of Mansonville, Richard Ha-gemeyer of Granby, Ross Ladd of Cowansville and William Floch of Ayer’s Cliff This event, which attracts 75-100 people from around the province, was particularly important this year because of the large ehangeo ver in staff people at the CBC.Since the last consultation, in M|irch of 1987.there has been a large changeover at CBC, both on-aif and behind-the-scenes staff.^he consultation began with a welcome from Doug McKinnon of Keeping in touch By William Floch the QFA and then participants heard from the recently appointed CBC personnel: Nicole Belanger (Regional Director — Quebec), Norm Boland (Director of Television — Quebec Region) and Bob Blackwood (Director of Radio — Quebec Region).Following the speeches, there was an abridged version of a tour of the facilities of the English language section of the CBC at 1400 Dorchester in Montreal.The tour enabled participants to see behind the scenes and to observe the television and radio people preparing for the day’s programming.For English-speaking Township-pers’, the highlight of the day was the announcement by Bob Blackwood (the person responsible for English language radio services) that a new CBC correspondent has been named for the Eastern Townships.David Tweedie, currently positioned as the New Brunswick Legislative Assembly reporter, will take up his new post in the Townships in early April.Townshippers’ Association welcomes Mr.Tweedie to the Towns- hips and wishes him well in his new post.This position has been vacant since the departure of David McLaughlan in the fall of 1986 and Townshippers’ Association has made a number of representations to the CBC to ensure that the position is filled.During the workshops which fol lowed lunch, consultation participants were given an opportunity to give direct feedback to CBC people.Groups of resource people from the radio and television production teams and from management circulated to meet with each of the workshop groups.Much of the commentary was positive although people pointed out some of the problems with reception, scheduling and programmes.All in all.the consultation was a successful one It provided an opportunity for community representatives and CBC personnel to get to know one another and gave a forum for discussion of CBC services.The CBC team is to be congratulated for their part in making the day a success and the Quebec Farmers’ Association deserves a great deal of credit for their work in organizing this event.The vital importance of the CBC's role in providing information to the English-speaking community outside of Montreal was clearly expressed by consultation participants In describing the CBC as her “university”, Mrs.La-vina French of Sawyerville summed up the feeling of many participants.HELPING YOU HELP YOURSELF IN BUSINESS The Eastern Townships Entrepreneurship Club invites you to attend their next meeting which will be held on Thursday.April 7 at 7:30 p.m.in Room 314 of the Nichols building on Bishop’s

annual hospital day at Ait Hon Marche in Sherbrooke March 16 where part of profits were donated to the CHUS Foundation.Some CHUS volunteers were even on hand to help at the store: Yvonne Mercier,

Marché.Job-sharing programs have many pros and cons By Jill St.Louis VANCOUVER (CP) — Llona O’Gorman welcomes the increased free time that job-sharing has given her, but she wasn’t quite prepared for having her salary cut in half along with her hours.O’Gorman, 55, and her husband have been trying to put their finances in order before he retires in the next couple of years.“It (job-sharing) really has put an extra stress on us,” she says.“In retrospect, it probably wasn’t the wisest thing to do financially.” With the help of Work Well, a federally funded program in Victoria, O’Gorman arranged the details of sharing her job as coordinator of volunteers for that city’s hospice program.WROTE BOOK Work Well is the creation of Bruce O’Hara, a counsellor who has written a book on how to alter work schedules to better fit lifestyles without harming career prospects or job security.Jobsharing is not new to Victoria, but the two-year-old program helps people prepare proposals for restructured work hours that employers are likely to accept.O’Hara says the program, which has had more than 100 clients, is unique in Canada.He says both workers and employers can benefit from a work-option program.Overloaded employees are inefficient and prone to error, he says.In many cases a flexible approach to work scheduling enables employers to keep workers they would otherwise lose.“So many of my clients were under stress because they were either unemployed or overloaded.There seemed to be very few people who were actually able to get a balanced workload in their lives.” LOSE OUT’ The ones overloaded with work often “lose out on the rest of their lives, whether that life is family, friends, hobbies,” O’Hara says.“We’re starting to see a lot of situations where women are picking up some of the same compulsive workaholic patterns that have been men’s lot.” O’Hara says many of his clients are young women with small children.Julia Wallace doesn’t have children, but she says her job as education officer at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria was taking up too much time.“A lot of my job was evenings and weekends as well.I was working a lot more than a five-day-a-week job then.” Wallace, 38, has been in her current position for IVz years.Work Well helped her set up a four-day week, which she has worked since February 1987.Her one-fifth salary reduction has gone toward hiring someone else to do part of her job.LIKES IT “It’s a lot better.I can get involved in other things, and it gives a bit more of a healthy perspective on the different aspects of life, rather than just a job.” Sharing her job hasn’t been problem-free, however.“We’ve had a few snags in terms of communication between the various people involved in programming,” Wallace says.O’Hara says more than half of his clients have their proposals accepted by employers.But "there’s a good-sized minority that get turned down” or have to submit revised proposals.Clients pay $10, the price of a membership in the non-profit service.O’Hara got the idea for Work Well while acting as an employment counsellor on contract with various government departments.He says that when two or more people share one full-time position, salary and benefits are prorated.Other work options include flexible starting and quitting times; phased retirement, where employees gradually reduce their hours: a compressed work week, where employees work a standard number of hours in fewer days: or permanent part time, with seniority rights, promotion opportunities, prorated benefits and rates of pay comparable to full time.White House chef reflects on working with Reagan families l$y Judy Creighton •KANSASCITY, Mo.(CP) —Nan-ej Reagan holds “dress rehearsals” for White House dinner parties and Rosalynn Carter had ho miny grits served to her guests, says the former executive chef to five' U.S.presidents.Henry Haller, a native of Switzerland, spent 21 years at the White House cooking for presidents Lyndon Johnson.Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Car ter and Ronald Reagan.Upon retiring at 65 last October, Haller wrote about those years in The White House Family Cookbook (Random House, $28.95).Haller spoke about his White House work during an interview at the recent International Food Media Conference in Kansas City.IN DEMAND’ He came to Canada from Switzerland in 1948 and took a position as chef at the Ritz Carlton in Montreal.“European chefs were very much in demand in both Canada and the United States at that time.“But 1 moved to the United States in 1951 where the job opportunities and salaries were better.” In 1966, Haller was offered the White House position by President Johnson who had sampled the chef’s cooking at two New York City hotels, the Hampshire House and the Sheraton East.As the White House chef, Haller was responsible for the preparation of every morsel consumed on the premises, from elaborate state dinners for over 1,300 distinguished guests to intimate family suppers.“When the Nixons arrived at the White House (in 1969), I prepared some very elaborate menus, always with a first course and a dessert,” Haller said.“However, after a few days President Nixon came into the kitchen and told me, ‘Chef, cut the first course — we re getting too much food.” A week later Haller was asked to cut out the dessert.From then on “we served a first course and dessert only when guests were pre- sent.” Haller says his favorite presi dential family was the Fords — Ge raid, Betty and their four children “Mrs.Ford was a friendly, charming, natural person.Gerald Ford was an amiable president with an unusually fine sense of humor.” KIDS WRITE Haller has a soft spot for the Ford’s four children — and in fact for all the presidents’ offspring.“I still get cards and letters from many of them.I guess they still remember how I tried to leave their favorite snacks in the fridge for them.” For President Carter’s first breakfast in the White House in 1977, Haller made sure that hominy grits, a southern specialty made from corn meal, were included on the menu.“Grits soon became standard fare for White House guests from all over the world.” When the Reagans took up residence in 1981, Haller expected another change in culinary styles.“After all, a Hollywood couple would certainly dine differently from a farm family from Georgia,” he said with a smile.“However, many of the simple menus that the Carters had enjoyed appealed to the new first family.” WATCHES DIET Nancy Reagan is ever vigilant of and others her husband’s diet, said Haller.“She is careful to see that the menus are well-balanced and healthful, nutritious as well as delicious.” For example, they eat eggs only once a week — “a single egg for each of them,” but both Reagans enjoy desserts at every dinner.“Fruit desserts are especially popular, including a wide array of apple dishes such as compotes, mousses, custards, tarts and apple meringue pie.” Haller’s book includes favorite recipes for casual and state dining, as well as dishes each president’s family brought with them to the White House.Social notes Goodmurphy travels the world on $5000 a year Birthday wishes A wonderful

call him irresponsible.He has shunned the symbols of suburbia.No mortgage, no children, no car loan, no boss, not even any credit cards.The 38-year-old Vancouver man travels the world on $5,000 a year, touching base every year or two to take on lucrative laboring jobs that will finance his next adventure.“I just pick up and go,” says Goodmurphy.“I say Tm going west tomorrow.’ I wake up in the morning and say: ‘Na, na.I’m going east.’” Goodmurphy’s feet have taken him from Cerro de Pasco in the Andes Mountains, the highest city in the world at 4,300 metres above sea level, to the barren Hoggar Mountains in the heart of the Sahara Desert: from visiting Pakistani hill shepherds to museum curators in New York and Amsterdam.A strong, ruddy man with a love of beer and good company.Goodmurphy is on the 44th page of his fifth passport.For 18 years Goodmurphy s life has been a cycle of working a few months, travelling for up to two years, then starting over.SAVES WAGES In remote areas of Canada or Australia, Goodmurphy says he can earn $10,000 to $12,000 as a la- borer in four months.He saves almost all of it, eating lettuce and bologna sandwiches for lunch and instant macaroni and cheese for dinner.“I remember a guy once said to me: ‘Look, I’ve got $4,000.Do you think that will be enough for a month in Mexico?’” says Goodmurphy “I nearly choked.I could do all of Central America for six months on $4,000.” When Goodmurphy is ready to hit the road, he stashes cash in his shoes, sews about $100 into his pants and carries the rest as a small wad of travellers' cheques.His worldly belongings fit on his back — two changes of clothes, a sleeping bag, toilet and medical kits, travel documents, camera, mosquito net, maps, books, dictionaries and a back pack.On his travels, Goodmurphy says he is drawn to arts and crafts, with heavy Persian rugs from China or Iran and Somalian camel milk jugs among his favorites.“The Somalian women carry their camel’s milk in beautiful earthenware jugs encased in leather,” he says.“They are very old and very smelly .big and heavy and awkward and very, very beautiful ” Plane tickets are the largest expense for Goodmurphy, although he says with his flexible schedule he can often find cheap flights.He has flown from Nairobi to London for $220 with Air Sudan when the regular price was $700.Goodmurphy also says he frequents “bucket shops,” which deal in cheap international fares, and he always checks out smaller airlines and newspaper advertisements.On the road, he says, he rarely spends more than $2 or $3 on a meal, eating local food at small restaurants or roadside stalls.Never staying in one place more than a few weeks, Goodmurphy says he lives in hostels, “rustic” hotels, friends’ homes and sometimes the outdoors.He has shared a yurt (a large colorful tent) with Kazak people in the Tien Shi Mountains north of Urumqi in western China and stared at stars and snow-capped mountains with shepherds in northern Pakistan.Goodmurphy says he travels by truck, train, bus, boat, and on foot.A recent month travelling from Helsinki in Finland to Sweden, Denmark, West Germany, Amsterdam.and London cost him only $400.Goodmurphy says he still keeps up on Canadian and world affairs.“I’m not giving up on my society at all just because I travel,” he says.“I suppose there’s a certain amount of escapism in it too, you know, from the formalities, financial, emotional, sociological, that one has to make.“But over the years I’ve had a look at it and the commitments that I would have had to make are false to me — the commitment to a mortgage and an insurance policy and all this kind of stuff, and all the beautiful world out there .it just doesn’t seem to have any meaning to me.” Thousands of Canadians are

variety of graphs, even in colour, to make the numbers understandable.Unfortunately the ease of producing these has led to an esthetic problem.In the bad old days, even a simple report was given to a secretary and she used the few tools at her disposal to make a presentable looking document.If the document was more complex, a graphic artist was used to ensure that the document looked good, and invited people to read it.Similarly, charts were either simple bar or line charts that anyone could do, or they were given to a professional.None of these steps guarenteed a good looking document, but usually the result was either simple or professional.Since the advent of the computer, people that don't know the different between a seriph and sans-seriph type face, are able to use any number of them on the same page.The result has all too often been cluttered, near illegible, junk.Fortunately the problem has been recognized, and books have been written to help the uninitiated prepare clear, uncluttered page layouts and crisp graphs.Design for Destop Publishing, (Chronicle Books, San Francisco, California) addresses the needs of the novice desktop publisher.Written by John Niles, the book starts at the beginning and explains the steps required to prepare a readable layout.Starting with determining the purpose of the work, the book describes in clear non technical language, the elements of preparing a professional looking document.This includes techniques to induce people to read something that they would normally skip If you're required to prepare charts for presentations.The Visual

pompous, inept, or dishonest.An example that would be clearer, and funnier, if you could see the graphic he describes : “The addition of a fake perspective to the data structure clutters many

IFocus on Farming^ » '.o/w « m sgj Even the physical appearance of the tiny wheat kernels is cru cial.New varieties have to look slightly different than existing ones so that elevator inspectors can tell them apart at a glance PUT TO TEST After years of genetic tinkc ring, potential new varieties are tried out in test plots across the Prairies.They’re subjected to full-scale attacks of some of wheat's worst enemies — leaf rust, loose smut and root rot Bakery technicians mill wheat from the varieties and make tiny loaves of bread.But 99 per cent of the seeds end up in the trash can because they 're weak in just a single qua-ht\ The successful varieties are licensed, bred to produce a good seed supply and sold to farmers “You learn to be a good thrower outer." said Campbell, who has grown thousands of wheat plants but admits he hates gardening What a plant breeder does is get rid of the junk.” Campbell, a native of Winnipeg, said he's concerned that wheat breeding will suffer as the federal government chips away at the country's research programs “Plant breeding is kind of a numbers game the more material you have the better your chances are."If you're cutting back, you’re cutting your chances.” Career A manufacturing business in Sherbrooke is looking for someone for the job of: ACCOUNTING CLERK SECRETARY The person must have a good knowledge of accounting and secretarial work, be bilingual and be able to communicate with people with ease.Salary to be discussed according to qualifications.Send your curriculum vitae to RECORD BOX 83 c/o THE RECORD P.O.Box 1200 Sherbrooke, Quebec J1H 5L6 NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the 153rd Annual Meeting of the Shareholders of THE MIS-SISQUOI AND ROUVILLE INSURANCE COMPANY will be held at the Head Office of the Company, Frelighsburg, Quebec, on Monday, May 2nd, 1988 at the hour of 10:00 A M.for the following purposes: 1- To receive and consider the report of the Directors, together witht he Balance Sheet, Statement of Income and Surplus, and the Report of the Company's auditors, for the year ending December 31st, 1987.2- To elect Directors for the ensuing year.3- To appoint auditors for the ensuing year and establish their remuneration.4- To transact other business that may lawfully come before the meeting or any adjournment thereof.DATED at Frelighsburg, Quebec, this 30th day of March 1988.BY ORDER OF THE BOARD W.B.Enright Secretary ÆÿKA s il : : 7// S'.iv.: ' .v .Milfllswr atÈIMl « ETP FROM , EAGLE ST l70 "P175/70R13 j SIZE PRICE SIZE P185/70R13 88 80 P235'60R14 1 1 P195/70R13 92 70 P245'60R14 P205/60R13 94 80 P225'70R15 1 P195/70R14 99 90 P235Z70R15 1 P205/70R14 104.70 P215/65R15 1 | P215/70R14 108 90 P245/60R15 1 P225/70R14 113 70 P255/60R15 1 1 P195/60R14 102 90 P275/60R15 I 1 P215I60R14 104 70 .YOU COULD WIN Find out how you could win one of five trips for two to the Big Event of Auto Racing - the Indy 500 Get all the details at your Goodyear retailer's during the Big Event Tire Sole.-, Wi ALL-SEASON PERFORMANCE RADIAL I FROM 135 90 EAGLE GT+ 4 FROM $7^90 VECTOR # Æm P155/80R13 ilM SIZE PRICE | SIZE PRICE i|| ¦ §S! ¦mm P155/80R13 BLK 64 80!

James Jacoby For much of his life Grant Baze was simply a winning rubber-bridge player in tough San Francisco clubs and a strong competitor in North American Championship tournaments.Then he won the McKenney trophy in 1983 and repeated that win in 1984 Since then he has been much in demand as a bridge professional, whether as partner, teacher, or even lecturer at cruise vacations for bridge enthusiasts.Today’s deal from a recent tournament shows Grant picking a lead out of thin air to mesmerize declarer into going set.In today’s auction, South described a balanced hand of 24-26 high-card points.When North invited slam, South promptly accepted.Baze, West, had no indication as to the best lead against six no-trump, and obviously any lead might sacrifice a trick.So rather than lead away from one of his queens or jacks, he stepped up to the plate and swung away with his jack of hearts.Babe Ruth never hit a cleaner home run.Declarer South naturally assumed the heart jack to be from a J-10 sequence.So in due course, after cashing the king and queen of hearts and noting the fall of the nine from East, declarer played toward dummy’s A-8.When Grant followed with the seven, declarer inserted the eight.East won the 10, and declarer’s 12 tricks had shrunk to only 11.James Jacoby 's books “Jacoby on Bridge” and “Jacoby on Card Games” (written with his father, the late Oswald Jacoby)

We danced! I practised all sorts of new steps and she followed all the way.It was wonderful snuggling up to Judy, the white doll but it was twice as nice when Susan came too and I had two love dolls to share my nights.” If you want any more of this, better sneak one of these earthier magazines past the proper people in your house and read for yourself, but as I see it, this all adds up to just one more proof that one of the great social sicknesses of our time must be loneliness, and like any other sickness which is so serious and so common, it has provided a golden opportunity for the making of a fast buck.Just in case you’re wondering, there is only one aperature in a love doll, the one with which you blow her up to her full womanly proportions when she arrives in your mail like a deflated balloon.And does she serve any purpose but that of being an agreeable companion?Well, Esquire reports that a truck driver of its acquaintance never goes out on a trip without one in the cab beside him.(Complete with negligee and bikini, I take it.) He says that if he leaves her sitting alone in the cab when he stops off at a hamburger joint, he can be almost certain that no one is going to try to make off with his truck.Won't even think of it.Give generously to The Kidney Foundation of Canada “They really taught me how to sell Holly McPhee.” Al Maclellan, Counsellor, helped Holly with everything from her résumé to preparing (or

30.1988—13 Sports #1___ftef Kccora Mets could be the team to beat this year By Wesley Goldstein The Canadian Press It has become something of a tradition the last three years to predict the New York Mets to win the National League’s East Division.This year is no different, simply because the Mets are an extremely talented, balanced club with a lot of depth.But New York will not have a cakewalk.The defending champion St.Louis Cardinals are without Jack Clark, but they were without the slugging first baseman for most of September and all of postseason play and still went to Game 7 of the World Series.The Montreal Expos reestablished themselves as a serious challenger last season, and the young Pittsburgh Pirates began improving late in the year.The Philadelphia Phillies always seem to find a way to beat themselves, but they are still a talented bunch.And Chicago's Cubs, with Andre Dawson, Ryne Sandberg and Rick Sutcliffe in their lineup, cannot be totally discounted.Here’s a look at the East Division teams, in their predicted order of finish.New York Mets (2nd place last year; 92-70) New York’s starting pitching rotation of Dwight Gooden.Ron Darling, Bob Ojeda, Sid Fernandez and Rick Aguilera makes other clubs drool So does a batting order dominated by sluggers such as Darryl Strawberry.Kevin McReynolds.Gary Carter.Howard Johnson and Keith Hernandez.A healthy Mets team has everything and more to win this year.But the team's talent is matched in egos and tempers and the Mets are always under threat of eruption.Montreal Expos (3rd; 91-71) The biggest drawback for the Expos may be that they’ve lost the element of surprise.Montreal is a known quantity heading into the new season.The Expos finished four games out last season, despite missing key players for extended periods of time.This year, Tim Raines will be there from opening day, as will pitchers Dennis Martinez and Pascual Perez.Montreal has some problems in its lineup, notably at shortstop and at catcher.Those aren't the kinds of problems to keep Montreal from contending, but they could keep the Expos from going over the top.St.Louis Cardinals (1st; 95-67) The man that kept people from The Expos will need Pascual Perez’s again this year.— thinking the Cardinals were a track team — Jack Clark — is gone, but he has been passably cloned by Bob Horner.Horner won’t match Clark’s great numbers, but he'll able to do the job when speedsters Vince Coleman, Curt Ford and Willie McGee get on ahead of him.The fastest team in baseball can score runs in a variety of ways, and a stellar defence led by incomparable shortstop Ozzie Smith, can stop others in a variety of ways.Pittsburgh Pirates (Tied 4th; 80-82) They may have been out of the race by July, but the Pirates were the best team in the division over the final six weeks, going 27-11 after Aug.23.Three young pitchers — Mike Dunne.Brian Fisher and Doug Drabek — anchor the staff.Andy Van Slyke, Bobby Bonds and R.J Reynolds head up a pretty fair batting order.Philadelphia Phillies (Tied 4th; 80-82) The Phillies can count on veteran Mike Schmidt to provide runs.Philadelphia’s problems is pitching, even with reliever Steve Bedrosian, the Cy Young winner, and 17-game winner Shane Rawley.The rest of the staff is about to be filed under “eternally unfulfilled potential.” Chicago Cubs (6th; 76-85) The Cubs have MVP Andre Dawson, perennial all-star second baseman Ryne Sandberg and Cy Young candidate Rick Sutcliffe in their lineup.But their hopes under newly recycled manager Don Zimmer are with their youngsters: pitchers Jamie Moyer and Greg Maddux.The hopes extend to Rafael Pal-miero, Dave Martinez and Mark Grace.That’s a lot of hope for one season.Mauch’s legacy could be with future winners When Gene Mauch was a feisty.18-year-old shortstop in Brooklyn’s minor league baseball chain, Branch Rickey, the astute Dodgers’ executive, observed: “That boy looks 16, acts like 26 but has a 36-year-old head on his shoulders.’’ Years later, remembering Rickey’s comment, Mauch nodded.“That’s right — in baseball you get old in a hurry.” When Mauch announced on the weekend that he was retiring from his managerial post with the California Angels, his birth certficate listed him as 62.In outward appearance, he was not unlike any other person in his age group — his hair had long since turned a distinguished silver and the wrinkles were only partly camouflaged by an enviable tan.But no one could accurately measure Mauch’s age internally.In terms of the exasperation and heartache he has endured in his 26 years as a manager, Mauch is surely baseball’s Methuselah.Remember, this is a man who ac- By Terry Scott The Canadian Press cepts defeat as gracefully as one would tolerate a daily root canal, yet he lost 2,037 times.A number of the defeats defied credibility.Ten of them came in a row near the end of the 1964 season, as the Philadelphia Phillies, with 12 games to play, blew a evâ-game lead when Mauch decided to employ virtually a two-man staff of starting pitchers.TAKES CHANCES In 1982, Mauch, who always devoutly played the percentages, decided otherwise in allowing right-handed reliever Luis Sanchez to pitch to Cecil Cooper, a dangerous left-handed batter who was hitting only .105 in the AL title series.With Andy Hassler, a left-hander pit- cher in the bullpen, Cooper promptly delivered a two-run single and Milwaukee, behind 2-0 in games at one point, won the decisive fifth game of the American League championship series against the Angels.“A lot of people have tried to get into my head,” Mauch said, his face tormented and the veins on his neck protruding in the moments of anguish.“If they did get in there, they wouldn't know what they were dealing with.” It is Mauch’s head, rather than his amazing string of misfortune, which should be recognized as his legacy to the game.He taught fundamental, hard-nosed baseball to a generation that had scarcely heard of the systemized, successful approach of the Dodgers.PLAYERS BENEFIT Tim Foli.Mike Jorgensen.Barry Foote.Pete Mackanin.Del Un-ser.Rich Hacker.Tony Taylor.They are a few of the players who reached into Mauch’s head and benefited from the wisdom of the pro- fessor.All of them are currently major-league coaches or minor-league managers, with aspirations to carry the torch that Mauch has tossed.“I’d say that Gene was as great an influence on my thinking as anyone,” said Foote, a catcher under Mauch when he was with the Montreal Expos.Speaking from the Blue Jays’ minor league camp in Dunedin, Fla., where he’s managing Knoxville, Toronto’s Class A A team, Foote added : “What impressed me most about him was his overview of the game, his watching and not missing a thing that went on between the lines.” Mauch obviously hoped he wouldn’t have to retire with the stigma of pennants that were seized in mind-numbing and gut-wrenching fashion.But he has left an imprint on the sport, and someday when a Foote or a Foli delivers a winner, part of the triumph will belong to Mauch.Neil Heat-on buries Braves with strikes WEST PALM BEACH.Fla (CP) — Neal Heaton pitched seven strong innings for the second straight time to lead the Montreal Expos to a 4-0 victory over the Atlanta Braves in Grapefruit League exhibition baseball play Tuesday.Heaton.3-2, stymied the Braves, allowing just three hits, w hile stri king out five and walking two.In his last outing.Heaton, who has a 1.30 earned run average in 30 innings this spring, also went seven innings against Atlanta, allowing one run on six hits.Montreal did all the damage it needed against loser Kevin Coffman, 0-3, in the sixth inning, sco- ring four times.Coffman committed a key error in the sixth after surrendering two-out walks to Jeff Reed and Hu bie Brooks Coffman then fielded hit a high chopper by Tim Wallaeh.but pulled first baseman Ted Sim mons off the bag with lus throw .Wallaeh jarred the ball loose from Simmons, allowing the first run to score putting Expos on first and third.Brooks scored on a wild pitch before Andres Galarraga tripled home the third run and Dave Engle singled home the fourth The victory left Montreal with a 14-11 record this spring.Atlanta dropped to 7 19.Darren kicks the Puppa out of the Nordiques QUEBEC (CP) — As far as Michel Goulet was concerned, the practical end to the Nordiques sea son wastypical of what w ent wrong for the club all year."Its been the story of our year.” said Goulet after Quebec lost 3-1 to the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday night and was officially eliminated from the NHL playoffs.“We get the chances but we never seem to score the big goal.” The Nordiques, who have three games left, and trail the fourth place Hartford Whalers by seven points in the Adams Division, did indeed get chances in their last ditch effort to avoid missing postseason action for the first time since 1979-80, their debut year in the league.Quebec had 12 power-play oppor tunites and managed to unleash 47 shots but to little avail.“Itt seems like everytime we get 40 shots, we lose," said Quebec de fenceman Robert Picard.“Next year we should concentrate on getting 15 shots a game, but 15 good ones.” The Nordiques did get some good shots away, but when they did Sabres netminder Darren Puppa was up to the task.“Darren was the difference in the game for us,” said Buffalo coach Ted Sator, whose club clin ched third place in the Adams Division after three straight years in the cellar.“When you face a lot of shots, its one thing, but holding off a tough power-play unit like they have is doing quite a job.” Mark Napier scored two goals for Buffalo, a short-handed marker that put the Sabres ahead in the second period, and an insu- rance goal at 5:03 of the third John Tucker, w ith his 100th ca reer goal in the NHL.also scored for the Sabres, while defenceman Steve Finn notched Quebec’s only goal.Puppa was brilliant for Buffalo throughout the game, while Mario Brunetta had a shaky evening in goal for the Nordiques, making on ly 16 saves.The Nordiques tok a 1-0 lead in the opening period with a power-play goal but the Sabres used their specialty teams to move ahead by a 2-1 margin after 40 minutes of play.Finn opened the scoring with a screened shot from the blueline after Paul Gillis won a faceoff in the Buffalo end of the ice.It was the third goal of the season for Finn, who first fakedashot and then drilled a drive through traffic that eluded Puppa at 10:40.The Nordiques had a chance to score earlier in the first period but failed to take advantage of a double man advantage situation When the Sabres had their chance at a similar situation late in the second period, they capitalized and tied it on Tucker’s 100th career goal.Tucker was standing in the slot when a shot by Lindy Ruff deflected off his skate and into the Quebec net past Brunetta at 14:49.The Sabres took the lead less than four minutes later when Na pier notched a short-handed goal.Napier picked up a pass from Doug Smith, who had was knocked down at the Nordiques blueline by Quebec’s Terry Carkner, went in all alone and beat Brunetta with a high backhand shot.Scoreboard Eitluding Tuesday'* games NHL CAMPBELL CONFERENCE Norris Division W.L.T.F.A P x-D«troft 40 27 10 310 259 9Ü V-St L 34 36 8 272 284 76 V-Ctvcago 30 39 9 278 320 69 Minnsta 19

the city’s 350th anniversary celebrations.Mayor Jean Dore said he would reveal the city’s plan later this week, but Jean-Francois Naquet-Radiguet, the director general of the Tour, said he was enthusiastic about bringing the race to Montreal.“It would be a stimulating and ambitious adventure that reminds us of our passage through Berlin five years ago,” said Naquet-Radiguet.He said Montreal was chosen because of France’s cultural ties to Quebec and because “1992 is a symbolic year for France and Montreal and it’s our way of sending our congratulations.” The Tour de France, cycling’s top event similar in stature to the Wimbledon tennis tournament, is a 3,000-kilometre race that is run in stages through France over a one-month period.PITTSBURGH (AP)—The Pittsburgh Steelers, seeking to

involving a quarterback in coach Chuck Noll’s 19 years with the Steelers.TIUDEN CAR RENTAL A MOVING TRUCKS WEEKEND SPECIALS CHRYSLER VEHICLES VAL CSTRie 822-4141 LISTEN & WIN Be the 9th caller when
