Sl\N\ 1>A> ADAM UNNOW1LU El LM* VT ARY SCHOtH î t-k* Weather, page 2 Sherbrooke Thursday, May 26, 1988 40 cents Language law amendments bad news for dinosaurs OTTAWA (CP) — The government stood firm on the principles of its proposed language legislation Wednesday, releasing amendments that fail to address major concerns of Tory backbenchers fighting the bill.Justice Minister Ray Hnatyshyn presented to a Commons committee studying the bill a pac kage of 41 amendments that fine-tune the update of the 19-year-old Official Languages Act.“The basic principles of the bill remain sacrosanct,” Hnatyshyn told reporters.“The commitment of the government remains clear.” The amendments were hailed as a victory by the bill's supporters who feared that several dozen Conservative backbenchers — dubbed the dinosaurs by opposition MPs — might force the gover nment to dilute the legislation ‘‘There's not much there in terms of getting all excited about the dinosaurs winning the game," said Liberal MP Jean Robert Gauthier.“They've lost." Both opposition parties support Bill C-72, wrhich would increase bilingual services in the federal government and allow more public servants to work in the official language of their choice.But several Tory backbenchers said they won't support the bill un less the government makes further changes to address their concerns that the bill discriminates against people who speak only English One of them.Bob Horner, told reporters the proposed amendments are good, but further changes are needed in several key areas, including clauses relating to the language of work in the public service.“I d like to see a few amendments to the amendments.” said the Toronto-area MP."It doesn't go far enough at the present time.Without more amendments 1 won’t vote for it." Stan Graham, who represents a riding in the B.C interior, said he wouldn't support the bill without more amendments.And Hill Domm.MP for Peterborough, Ont., said he'd have “a great deal of difficulty" voting for the government package.They vowed to push for more changes in committee before the bill is returned to the Commons for third reading.One government amendment aimed at mollifying backbenchers emphasizes that the bill doesn't justify the imposition of bilingual hiring requirements unless the job actually requires a person to speak both official languages.Another amendment would ensure complaints relating to this could be taken to the official lan guages commissioner or to the courts.Other proposed amendments clarify that sections guaranteeing the right to trial in either official language specifically refer to trials in federal courts Suggestions that all judges w’ill have to be bilingual are unfounded, Hnatyshyn told the committee.He said the amendments clarify that courts only have to ensure some bilingual judges are available to hear cases Says French in Quebec is threatened Rivard urges to cool down on language MONTREAL (CP) — Guy Rivard, Quebec’s minister in charge of the French Language Charter, walked a thin line Wednesday when he accepted a petition of 101,000 signatures calling for a French Quebec, but also urged a cooling down of the language debate.The petition, circulated by the St.Jean Baptiste Society of Montreal and the Mouvement National des Québécois, demands the language law be restored to its original strength and that signs in Quebec be in French only.Firemen on a hot thin roof Both organizations, along with about 200 students from 30 Montreal schools, presented the petition to Rivard at a news conference.Rivard said in an interview following the presentation: “It’s about time that we cool it and lower the pressure.” But he agrees that French is threatened in Quebec.“All you have to do is look at a mapof North America.If you don’t intervene on the side of French, French will disappear in Quebec,” he said.Young people built the French Quebec of today and will continue to do so, Rivard told the crowd, adding that “much has to be done to preserve the French face of the province,” The high school students, wearing pro-French buttons, responded by applauding the minister and breaking into a chorus of Gens du Pays, a nationalist theme song.The students, who were taking part in a one-day conference at the society’s headquarters here, said they have to fight hard to preserve the French language.“A lot of students speak English because it’s cool,” said 16-year-old Nadine Methot.But Nicole Boudreau, president of the society’s Montreal branch, said French Quebecers are determined to protect their language, and cited as proof a march in April that brought 25,000 people to the city streets to show their support for the language law.RI.COKD'ROY Mad AREN It took 24 Sherbrooke firefighters and seven fire trucks to bring a blaze on Beliveau St.near the University of Sherbrooke under control.The fire started in the attic at around 12:15."Somebody stopped and came in and told us that the corner of the house was an fire," said Patrice Lamarche, a university student who was visiting some friends who rent the houses' basement.The students managed to save only their books.Provinces may be forced to comply with trade deal By Clyde Graham OTTAWA (CP) — Trade Minister John Crosbie dared the provinces Wednesday to challenge his free-trade legislation in the courts if they believe it violates their rights.Clauses in the bill that could be used to force provinces to comply with the proposed Canada-U.S.trade deal are within Ottawa’s constitutional power over international trade, Crosbie told the Commons.However, provinces concerned the legislation poaches on provincial territory such as control over liquor regulation and sales have the right to go to the courts if they disagree, the minister added.“Anyone who fears we are going outside of it (federal jurisdiction), I plead with them to go to the courts and let the courts decide this,” he said as opposition MPs accused him of attempting a constitutional power grab.“Put your money where your mouth is and take a challenge to the courts.” Crosbie has said federal lawyers are confident they would win such a case.And it appeared Wednesday afternoon that although several of the premiers were concerned about the legislation, they weren’t looking for an immediate fight.CONDEMNS PACKAGE Quebec Premier Robert Bouras- sa, one of eight premiers who supports the deal, condemned the proposed free-trade legislation package as an infringement on his province’s rights.But in the same breath he said he wasn’t ready to endanger the agreement.“We denounce the process used by the federal government to implement the accord but we must recognize the content still is good,” Bourassa told a news conference in Quebec City.He said he would still comply with the deal and move to end provincial liquor regulations which discriminate against U.S.wine and spirits Several other premiers — indu ding the two who oppose the trade deal, David Peterson of Ontario and Prince Edward Island’s Joe Ghiz — said they are still reviewing the extensive bill.“I don’t think I should pander to those who just want to create an immediate confrontation today,” said Peterson, who nevertheless repeated his condemnation of the deal as a threat to Canadian social programs and sovereignty.Peterson has threatened in the past to take the issue to court.Ghiz, a Liberal like Bourassa and Peterson, said Tuesday he is concerned by U.S.attempts to tack restrictions on imports of Cana- Mulroney goofs: Europe and Canada spend same By Edison Stewart BRUSSELS (CP) — Prime Minister Brian Mulroney suffered an embarrassing slip-up Wednesday when he said West European agricultural subsidies far outstrip Canada’s, even in proportional terms.A senior Canadian official confirmed later that, proportionately, the European Community and Canada spend almost identical amounts subsidizing agriculture.“Everybody’s sinning and the Canadians are sinning almost as much as the EC,” the official said, briefing reporters on condition she not be identified.She was apparently unaware Mulroney had said earlier in the day that Canada and Europe are not in the same league, “either in (terms of) proportion or amount.” Mulroney, speaking to reporters after a two-hour meeting with European Commission president Jacques Delors, had been responding to an EC official who told reporters Canadian farmers are subsidized almost as much as European ones.“He’s mistaken,” Mulroney asserted.“In Baie-Comeau,” he added, re- Foreign security must leave guns at home TORONTO (CP) — Canadian authorities are telling President Ronald Reagan's elite Secret Service agents and other leader’s security forces to leave their guns at home while at next month's economic summit.“Canada will be responsible for the security of visiting dignitaries and that message has been made extremely clear to those who are coming,” RCMP Commissioner Norman Inkster said Tuesday.Insp.Bob Guay of the summit’s Security Task Force said: “No one is allowed to carry firearms in this country other than Canadian peace officers.” But a spokesman for the Secret Service in Washington said agents will do whatever they must to guard their boss when he is in Toronto.“We will do what we’ve got to do to protect the president of the United States, wherever and whenever he travels,” said special agent Richard Adams.“We will do that as well when he comes to Canada.” ferring to his Quebec home town, “we would say we are Junior B and they’re in the national league.” Both officials cited a report from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development which says subsidies account for 49 per cent of a European farmer's income, compared with 46 per cent for a farmer in Canada.HALF CORRECT However, the Canadian official added that Mulroney was half correct: the more populous EC does spend about 10 times as much as Canada in actual dollar terms — about $85 billion compared with $8 billion.She backed up Muironey’s contention that much of the Canadian subsidies are in response to the escalating subsidy war between the United States and Europe Mulroney was in Brussels as part of his tour of European capitals to prepare for next month’s world economic summit in Toronto.He arrived later in Paris, where he is to meet President Francois Mitterrand and Premier Michel Rocard today.The subsidy dispute has emerged as a key issue facing the meeting, to be attended by leaders of Canada, the United States, Britain, France, West Germany, Italy and other EC countries.“We hope the summit will be able to move this along somewhat,” Mulroney said The European official, who also spoke on condition of anonymity, said the EC will soon propose a form of freeze on subsidies, but details won’t be ready in time for the summit.The OECD estimates subsidies by its 24 member countries cost more than $300 billion a year.WANT ABOLISHED Canada and the United States want them abolished.The U.S pro poses the year 2000 as a target, while the EC wants agreement first on short-term measures.It also says it is unrealistic to eliminate the subsidies entirely.Last month.Canadian Grains Minister Charlie Mayer said “outrageous” European subsidies are depriving some Canadians of their traditional markets.But the EC official replied that while Canadian grain subsidies are lower, subsidies to other products such as milk are much higher.“With all respect.Mr.Mayer is blind, at least to the Canadian situation." he said.The official also repeatedly blamed the United States for the worldwide bidding war."I find it surprising that (Mayen would identify the Community as being responsible for the situation on cereals markets because clearly what has happened is that the (U.S.) export enhancement program has been dictating the world market price in the last two years." dian potatoes and lobster on to the deal.AMEND STATUTES If passed, the legislation would amend 27 federal statutes to bring them in line with the proposed free-trade deal signed Jan.2 by Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and President Ronald Reagan.The deal, which would take effect next year, would eliminate most trade barriers between Cana da and the United States.It affects mainly federal laws but some provincial regulations as well.Crosbie’s legislation contains at least two clauses Ottawa could use to force a province to comply with the deal.The first, Clause 9, states Ottawa’s right to pass federal regulations to override provincial liquor regulations that don’t meet the free-trade deal’s schedule for phasing out discrimination against U.S.wine and spirits.Another, Clause 6, reserves Ottawa's right to override any future law a province might pass which would violate the agreement.Crosbie, who met with all 10 premiers before bringing in his legislation, told reporters the government took the softest action it could without reneging on its commitment to the United States to ensure the provinces comply.Clampdown coming on paramilitary camps?OTTAWA (CP) — Ottawa may clamp down on camps that offer paramilitary training, Justice Mi nister Ray Hnatyshyn told the Commons on Wednesday.Hnatyshyn said he will discuss the matter with provincial attorneys general at meetings in Quebec City today and Friday.The matter was raised following the conviction last Friday of three members of a Quebec family for manslaughter.Michel Laurin, his wife Nicole and their son Daniel, hired the operator of a commando school to assault a neighbor.The neighbor, Remi Lahaie, 19, was shot, strangled, stabbed 14 times and had his throat cut before his body was dumped near his home in the Montreal suburb of lie Perrot last August.The operator of the paramilitary school, Jean-Claude Legault, was recently convicted of second degree murder for the slaying and was sentenced to life imprisonment.He will not be eligible for pa role for 10 years.Outside the Commons, Hnatyshyn said amendments to the Criminal Code have to be drafted carefully because the Charter of Rights and Freedoms may place some constraints on what approach the government could take under the Criminal Code.‘‘It’s certainly a matter of concern and interest to federal and provincial jurisdictions,” Hnatys hyn told reporters.“There have been calls for pro vincial governments to take regu latory action under their jurisdiction — I think it is a matter we can discuss between us.” Liberal MP Warren Allmand, who raised the matter in the Commons, said later that he brought the matter to Hnatyshyn’s attention in 1985 and nothing has been done.“We don’t even know how many of these schools there are in Cana da,” the Montreal MP told repor ters.“The whole thing is very contra ry to our system of democracy and law enforcement.We don’t believe in self-enforcement of the law or forming little private armies or combat groups.” Allmand said no one opposes Boy Scout-type camps where people learn to march or climb trees and operate in the wilderness.“But when you’re taught how to use heavy arms and guerrilla warfare tactics, that’s for the armed forces and the police — it’s not for paramilitary schools.” Postal codes mandatory as of April 1, 1989 OTTAWA (CP) — The use of postal codes will become mandatory effective April 1, 1989.Anyone putting uncoded letters into the mail after that date will be subject to a 10-cent penalty for posting non-standard mail, Canada Post says.Letters with incorrect codes will be assessed the same penalty as those with no codes at all.The cost of mailing a first-class letter is to rise to 38 cents Jan 1, 1989, from the current rate of 37 cents.This will mean a charge of 48 cents for uncoded letters and delivery delays in many cases while letters are returned to sender for the extra postage.In the case of letters with no return address, or those not caught at the point of origin, penalties will be charged to the recipient-payable on the honor system by dropping a stamped card into the mail David Newman, a post office spokesman, said the agency is cracking down because of labor costs associated with the sorting of uncoded mail.“This should be reflected in the charge to the user,” Newman said in an interview Customers who don’t know proper codes for their mail can consult directories at local post offices or call toll-free numbers, he added.i 2—The RECORD—Thursday, May 26, 1988 The Townships Seconl ‘We have met the leaders of tomorrow Awards of Excellence: Winning student projects show quality, range By Charles Bury SHERBROOKE — Nineteen high school students from seven schools were honored for superior performance Tuesday in the second annual joint Awards for Excellence of the Eastern Townships and Sherbrooke Catholic school boards Winners ranged from a young man who looked into the ethics of artificial heart transplants to a woman whose watercolor paintings captivated the judges.Sponsored by the Sherbrooke chamber of commerce, the prizes rewarded students for special projects or accumulated work screened by their schools and submitted to panels of judges.Finalists were then interviewed at length by judges.In some categories the students were judged only against others from schools run by their their own board ; in others all were rated to- gether.QUALITY Judges on every panel said they were impressed by the quality and diversity of the winning works.Congratulating the finalists, ETSB president Margaret Paulette said they “must be proud, as must their parents be.” You worked very hard to be here today,” Paulette told the students.“Your participation has been outstanding in demonstrating your skills, in whatever field you have chosen.” • There should be an exciting and rewarding career ahead for every one of you,” Paulette added.The Catholic board has been under attack in the city’s French-language media recently by some parents who say their children get better educations at private schools.CSCS president Caroline Paquette told about 150 teachers, judges, parents and reporters gathered for the occasion that the contest and its results show that the public school system is working well.“1 hope the awards program incites the young to work hard,” she added.‘LEADERS OF TOMORROW’ “Your performance shows constant progress,” Paquette told the winning

tensions stay high By Charles Bury SHERBROOKE — In the ten years since it really got rolling, Quebec's English-language rights movement has come full circle and is "right back where it started from.” says Alliance Quebec president Royal Orr."It s a strange thing, but the people have the same concerns they had back in 1977-78," Orr said.“They are frustrated.The people have felt the pressure and tension go up again on the language question." "It's as if we're back at the beginning.” Orr said “four times as many” members as usual have attended Alliance regional chapters' annual meetings this year.Alliance-Quebec s seventh annual convention is set for this weekend at Macdonald College in Ste-Anne de Bellevue near Montreal.Orr said in an interview Thursday the gathering will likely deal more with issues and less with housekeeping than in recent years.TOUGH YEAR' "There's a certain reality to this one,” he said.“It’s been a tough year" on the language front.Orr said two main things have become clear to Alliance leaders this year "First, we now know that the language issue is not going to go away," he said “It looks like it's here to stay." “Second, we know that the politicians are not going to be the ones who solve this problem — especially this year's drop of politicians.” What can the Alliance do?"We’ve got to work harder that ever to get our message across to French-speaking Quebecers," he said.That message is "Quebec : Count us in" — the theme of this year's convention.HOW DO WE.?Several hundred delegates from all corners of the province are expected to attend.According to convention literature, they will be continued war’ asked "How do English-speaking Quebecers participate fully in Que bec society?" "Additionally, what barriers to participation must be overcome to ensure that members of this community can consider them selves fully integrated into Quebec society?" adds the convention pro gram.Friday evening delegates will hear Labor Minister Pierre Ca dieux, Multiculturalism Minister Jerry Weiner, and Orr.who was recently re-acclaimed the group's president.Saturday morning features a debate on the inevitable nature of Quebec’s language tensions.among researcher Pierre Anctil.La Presse columnist Gerald Leblanc.and Yanier College instructor Henry Milner, formerly an executive member of the Parti-Quebecois.Bill 101 Minister Guy Rivard will also speak LANGUAGE BARRIERS In the afternoon delegates will join workshops where discussions w ill address language barriers in health care, second language training.employment in the provincial and federal civil services Saturday evening Concordia University historian Graeme Decade will talk about "English-speaking Quebecers from the past" Sunday morning delegates examine the particular problems of anglo-Quebecers living outside Montreal.Two elections will also be held during the weekend one for the Alliance board, another to fill slots on its executive.One housekeeping matter will keep delegates buzzing, at least in the corridors between sessions: Who w ill replace Russell Williams Alliance executive director Williams recently resigned to take a health administration job in Ontario Most delegates won't be let in on the secret just yet.but president Orr said the Alliance executive is “already considering a successor." U.S.peace plan a ‘formula for Canadian foreign policy could help bring peace to A change in By Melanie Gruer SHERBROOKE — If peace is to come to the Middle East, negotiators will have to talk to the Pales- tine Liberation Organization, says a doctor who has practiced in Lebanon for eight years.“If you’re interested in peace.you stop the name calling and you talk to both sides.If you’re interested in peace, you put the burden on both sides,” he says.Dr.Chris Geannou, a doctor originally from Toronto, has been working with the Palestinian Red Crescent Society since 1980.He led a team which built a field hospital to treat Palestinians living in Sha-tila, a refugee camp in West Beirut.Now Geannou is back in Canada after a 20-year absence, talking about how peace can come to the Middle East and what people can do about it as individuals.Westerners share an opinion that Palestinians are terrorists, but that’s not always the case, he said in an interview Wednesday.There are violent factions on both sides of the fighting.Besides, he says, the PLO does good things for its people too.WIDOWS AND ORPHANS The PLO has set up factories where Palestinian widows and orphans work, earning money to support themselves.“In the West, the PLO is presented as a group of fighters.But there are 25,000 civil servants in the PLO,” Geannou says.He says an international peace conference under the United Nations must be set up with international guarantees.Those guarantees would include the application § of UN resolutions, the withdrawal | of Israelis from occupied territo-ries, the recognition of peace with | Arab countries and self-“ determination for Palestinians.| “That international consensus is g held by all European allies and “ there are only four countries who do not adhere to it — Israel, the United States, Canada and South Africa." Geannou says.The U.S.will not agree because their peace plan is a “formula for continued war", Geannou says "They have to talk to the PLO because they are representatives of the Palestinians.If they want to be serious about peace, they have to talk to the PLO,” he says.FOLLOWS U.S.As for the Canadian government, it has nothing better to do than follow' the actions of the U.S., the doctor says.But Canadians can help change that by contacting their local member of Parliament “Tell him T don't like what I see ," he suggests.Then ask him to change Canadian foreign policy to support the UN’s international law so justice can come to the Middle East.South Africa and Central America.South Africa cannot agree with the principle of self-determination because agreeing with that would mean agreeing with self-determination for the African people and that means the end of apartheid, Geannou says."The Israelis have to address the fact Palestinians believe themselves to be victims of historical injustice,” he says.RACIAL TENSIONS Geannou made up his mind to help victims of injustice a long time ago when he heard the stories of racial tensions in the southern American states during the 1960s.Becoming a doctor was the next step but he knew he never wanted to practice in Canada.“Medicine is a political subject.In North American the health system is so organized it first serves the interest of doctors and only then does it serve the society .” Geannou, who studied medicine in Algeria, France and Egypt, thinks doctors should practice medicine to help people, not help themselves He talks about his cousin, a Ca nadian pediatrician who only practices three days a week.He doesn’t work the other two days because he claims the money he would make would all go to the government.That's an attitude Geannou has a hard time understanding.“But then he has a hard time understanding what 1 do too." His own work at the Shatila camp was the most difficult during one six month period of fighting between 1986 and 1987.There was a blockade and that meant no supplies could come into the camp.Food, w'ater and medicine had to be rationed between the 3,500 people living there.Ninety-five per cent of the buildings were damaged by mortar and shells so the 492 families, indu ding 850 children under the age of 14, had to move to underground shelters.MAINTAIN HYGIENE Committees were set up to ration the food, defend the shelters and to maintain hygiene.The Palestinians also published a weekly bul letin filled with information about the on-going negotiations, articles on how to better ration supplies and poetry written by the people in the camp.At the field hospital, the staff of 90 had to repair their own equip ment and make do when oxygen and anesthesia gas ran out.Geannou, a general surgeon, had to learn to perform neurosurgery on patients who had shrapnel or bullets lodged in their skulls.“You use the classical rules of surgery and you do the best you can.You’re Middle East in a situation where you have to save life and limb." In his two and a half years at the camp, he performed 450 major operations in the operating theatre and thousands of others in the emergency with local anesthesia Electricity was also rationed which made operating more diffi cult During the last two hours of the day there was often a scarcity of electricity in the operating room.“We had to perform surgery using camping lights," he says."We were using a lot of techni ques that are no longer used," Geannou says.And learning a lot of lessons that North American prae tionners could also learn from.CANNOT RETURN Now that’s he’s back in Canada, Geannou can never return to the Middle East.He’s says he’s too well known by the wrong people.But he plans to continue his work in the Third World “You have to have enough of a conviction and an ability to sacrifice one’s own comfort at times Otherwise those abilities and convictions might as well be pas ted up on a wall for you to look at,” he says.Anyone with strong convictions about humanity and the ability to sacrifice their own comfort can work in the Third World, Geannou says.“You don’t have to be a doctor.It just depends on what you’re willing to do.” While he continues his speaking tour, Geannou will be working on two books — one on his experiences in Shatila and the other on war sur gery and the logistics of setting up a field hospital.And then he’s off again to prac tice medicine where people need it most.Dr Chris Geannou.if you ’re interested in peace, you put the burden on both sides.‘You can’t always rely on the authorities’ Stanstead Township citizens on guard MAST eyes the threatened lakefronts By Roy MacLaren SHERBROOKE — The biggest concern of Stanstead Township’s municipal and environmental watch-dog group is the growth of commercial development along the shoreline of Lake Memphre-magog.MAST (the Municipal Association of Stanstead Township) held a general meeting in Fitch Bay on Sunday, and according to director Philip Gosling the group is “mostly concerned with the marinas.” Gosling referred to a build-up of docking facilities in the environ-mentally-fragile ‘Narrows’ of Fitch Bay.Lawrence Larkin of Marina 2000 in Deauville has received permission from Stanstead Township council to install his docks again this summer despite the fact that he does not have the proper environmental permits, Gosling said.LITTLE HOPE “We’ve been in touch with the provincial authorities on it (Larkin’s marina) and now it’s in the hands of the justice department,” he added.“But we’re not OTTAWA (CP) — The federal government has banned the sale to the general public of loose asbestos fibre under the Hazardous Products Act, Consumer Affairs Minister Harvie Andre announced Wednesday.The prohibition does not apply to the sale of asbestos fibre for industrial use, where Andre said proper safety measures can be taken to avoid health hazards.Microscopic asbestos fibres, when inhaled, are blamed for a wide variety of lung, esophagus, stomach, colon and rectal cancers as well as for asbestosis.a lung ail- terribly optimistic because the marina has already been established."

a close look at a recently-released poll that says two out of three Canadians would like to torpedo plans to buy a dozen nuclear-powered submarines.The Tories have announced their intention to buy a fleet of 10 to 12 nuclear-propelled subs at a total cost of at least $8 billion.The government is expected to choose shortly between British and French designs for the submarines.But if there is enough political will to stop the project, there is still time to nuke it.Canadians disapprove of the plan by a margin of nearly two to one, says a poll conducted for the Canadian Centre for Arms Control and Nuclear Disarmament by Environics Research Group Ltd.The poll found that 59 per cent of Canadians questioned disapprove of the purchase while only 32 per cent approve.Only nine per cent of the 1,520 polled strongly approved the purchase of the subs at a cost of $8 billion, while 35 per cent of those questioned strongly disapproved.Only eight per cent of those questioned said they don’t know — which is a strong indication that Canadians have made up their minds about the purchase.They don’t want it.Here in Quebec where at least some of the submarines will likely be built, less than one quarter of those polled (21 per cent) were in favor of buying the subs.Even the possibility of dozens of new jobs being created is not enough to overshadow peoples’ attitudes towards the nukes.Faced with this kind of opposition the government has an obligation to think twice before it goes ahead and purchases the subs.While many Canadians may feel it is important to upgrade Canada’s defence capabilities, they are also worried about the proliferation of nuclear power and nuclear wastes.This poll sends a strong signal to Brian Mulroney and his cronies that this is one purchase the people don’t agree with.No doubt they are warning Mulroney that a nuclear mistake is a costly mistake.Hopefully, with a federal election coming up, the Conservatives will hesitate before making an unpopular decision.RITA LEGAULT Comor hates being labelled as Turner’s image czar By Dan Leger OTTAWA (CP) — Silently he watches from the back of John Turner’s impromptu news conferences.When the Liberal leader travels, he directs cameramen to good visuals for use in Liberal advertising.Jowly, of medium height and middle age, this quiet, affable and unassuming individual seems undeserving of his moniker: Dr.Death Dr.Death is Henry Comor, an actor, director, playwright, novelist and TV medical reporter, dubbed Dr.Death because, according to a former associate, “all his medical pieces dealt with diseases that could kill you.” After a career on the stage and in films in his native Britain and in the United States and Canada, Comor is nowadays Turner’s image czar, a term he hates.He has the behind-the-scenes role of molding a new and more palatable media image for the Liberal leader.Image-craft has become commonplace in Canadian politics.Remember when Ontario Premier David Peterson was lumpy and wore glasses?Image whiz Gabor Apour of Toronto changed that.Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and New Democrat Leader Ed Broad-bent have also sought help from time to time, but are not willing to say much about it.Even Comor won’t talk about his job or the things he has done for Tur- ner.Along with what he describes as a “personal obsession with anonymityhe say s it isn’t fair to his clients to reveal trade secrets.In an interview, he would only say he strives to “help people present the real them’ in the best way possible.” In Turner’s case, it has been a formidable task.His return to politics in 1984 showed him to be rusty in the extreme — uncomfortable in crowds and, on camera, tense, stiff in speech and prone to strange mannerisms that bothered viewers and voters.The disastrous election results in September 1984, when the Liberals were reduced to 40 seats in the 282-seat House of Commons, confirmed that people were not wild about Turner as a leader.To many Liberals, a big problem was Turner’s image.HOT IMAGE Turner has what television experts describe as a “hot image,” meaning he comes on too strong.The famous blue eyes shine like laser guns into the camera lens.He seldom seems relaxed.Liberal insiders say the challenge is to make Turner seem more mellow, to have viewers and voters see him the way his friends do, as a sincere, likeable guy who’s trying hard to succeed.When Turner’s office was reorganized last year, his new communications adviser, Raymond Heard, tapped an old friend and colleague to sand the jagged edges off Turner s image.Comor, who had worked with Global Television when Heard was in charge of news, was called in.Comor had a track record at American networks.Global and at the CBC, where he was part of a special team that coached reporters and on-air personalities on such tools as voice, delivery and presentation.His central advice to such people as Global’s Doug Small and Mike Duffy of the CBC was to act naturally and avoid seeming too rehearsed.Small admits he was rough around the edges when he jumped to television after years as a columnist and Canadian Press political reporter.“Henry taught me to relax, and to put more emotion in my voice,” SmaU recalls.“It was more important to say a few things meaningfully than to babble at the camera.” RELAX Duffy, who was in radio at the time, has similar memories of Comor’s coaching.He says Comor stressed relaxation and a one-to-one approach to the microphone.Has Comor helped Turner?His journalistic pupils say there has been an improvement in Turner’s delivery and presentation, but the Liberal leader still has some distance to go before achieving that magical contact with viewers.Turner “still has that tendency to kick in the baby-blues at full intensity when he’s talking to someone, and that can put people off,” says Small.Evidence of the new Turner image campaign is easy to find.He has taken to playing Phil Donahue at public meetings.Stalking back and forth in front of the crowd with a hand-held mike.Turner strives to project a lighter, friendlier image and build a rapport with his audience.His speeches now are delivered from notes, rather than from a prepared text.Comor is said to have felt that Turner’s adherence to a speechwriter’s cadence was too restrictive.Turner's annoying habit of clearing his throat between sentences has apparently been solved.He now delivers his speeches and gives interviews in a more fluid manner.But he still can’t deliver a joke line.Reporters — who have heard all the jokes before — groan as he sets up the joke and then rushes into the punch line, undercutting whatever comic effect it might have had.The Liberal strategy is to portray Turner in a sympathetic light, in contrast to the harder image of Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and the carefully nurtured ordinary guy’ style of NDP Leader Ed Broadbent.Grit insiders say they want to leave people with the feeling that Turner has learned from his defeats, worked hard for four years, survived revolts within the Liberal family and now is ready to govern once again.U.S.studies ways Ito clean Bikini Atolll BIKINI ATOLL (AP) — Scientists have once again descended upon Marshall Islands, this time to find a way to remove radiation that lingers from atomic bomb tests and bring the Bikini Islanders home.Twenty-three atomic tests between 1946 and 1958 turned Bikini Atoll into a radioactive no-man’s land.Three of Bikini’s 26 islands were vaporized.The enemy on Bikini Island, where most of the resettled Bikinians would live, is radioactive cesium-137.The isotope fouled Bikini’s soil after the explosion of America's most powerful hydrogen bomb in 1954.The cesium has made its way into the island’s food plants, and scientists say without treatment locally grown food won’t be safe until well into the 21st century.“If we solve the cesium-uptake problem, we’ve essentially solved the whole problem of rehabilitating Bikini,” said Dr.William Robison, a scientist at California’s Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory who has been heading the field tests.Robison says researchers have come up with three alternatives for making Bikini safe: scraping up the topsoil in which the radioactive material is concentrated, irrigation with sea water, and treating the soil with potassium to prevent the absorption of radioactivity by plants.REMOVE SOIL Removing the topsoil on the small island is the most straightforward and the most expensive alternative, costing an estimated $96 million US.Robison says.To be effective, the removal would have to take the top 40 centimetres of soil off Bikini Island.Such a procedure would be “a serious environmental insult.” removing all Bikini’s plants and devastating the island’s ability to grow vegetation, says Robison.Drenching topsoil with sea water has drastically reduced cesium absorption in test plants, but scientists are unsure of its long-term effectiveness, Robison says.There is also some question about how much damage the salt water would inflict upon the vegetaion.Researchers believe the sea water treatment works in one of two ways: either electrically charged sodium particles block the cesium from entering plant roots or the water filters the cesium further into the soil and out of reach of plants.Robison favors the third approach, which involves saturating the soil with potassium.Cesium is closely related to potassium, which plants crave.Scientists believe plants mistake the cesium for potassium .which is rare in Bikini's coral soil.PREFER POTASSIUM Robison says plants prefer potassium to cesium and will absorb potassium if given a choice between the two.The salt water and potassium treatments control the radioactive cesium, leaving it in the soil until natural decay renders it harmless.The cost of both options is estimated between $57 million and $80 million.The scraping option, although frowned on by scientists, has won wide support among Bikini’s leaders, even though it means staying away from their home longer.The Bikinians like the fact that soil removal gets rid of the cesium, instead of simply controlling it until it loses its potency.“It's the position of the Bikinian people that the radioactive soil be scraped up,” says Henchi Bales, a senator representing the Bikinians.“As laymen, it’s the only way we can have our peace of mind.” A small group of Bikinians returned in the early 1970s when radiation levels were thought to be safe.But tests in 1978 found they were ingesting dangerous amounts of cesium and they were evacuated.ate clear ?A u.Commander: Soviet military threat hasn’t changed By Richard Balmforth MONS, Belgium (Reuter) — Among the military volumes in the office of Gen.John Galvin, NATO’s supreme commander in Europe, is a copy of Mikhail Gorbachev's book Perestroika.It’s well-thumbed and heavily annotated.But the U .S.general finds nothing in the views of the reform minded Kremlin leader to persuade him that the Soviet threat to the West has diminished.“Where has (Gorbachev) said ‘let’s not build any more Foxbats, let’s not build any more Floggers, let’s cut down on the classes of submarines that we re building?”’ asks Galvin.“What programs have been stopped?I don’t find any.“In military policy, I don't see a change that has resulted from the appearance of Gorbachev.Not to date.“This question of (Soviet) military force to intimidate and force accommodation, I see it going on all the time.” •CRITICAL YEAR’ Galvin.58, a genial man with a face as lined as a military map, took over at SHAPE — Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe — last June amid anxiety that U.S.arms-eontrol policies might erode nuclear defence strategy.In an interview, Galvin has no hesitation in saying that the challenge from Gorbachev, shifting East-West relations and problems within the alliance could make 1988 NATO's “most critical year.” But he is sure that NATO’s doctrine of “flexible response” is the only valid one — a strategy endorsed by the summit meeting of NATO leaders in early March which dwelt on the challenge posed by Gorbachev.That means keeping enough nuclear and non-nuclear forces to persuade Moscow that the risk far outweighs the possible gains from attack.DIFFERENT STYLE Galvin’s conciliatory approach contrasts sharply with the combative style of his predecessor, Bernard Rogers, who held the top job at SHAPE for a record eight years and often clashed with NATO’s political authorities.But, style apart, their ideas are identical on the scale of the Soviet conventional force threat and the conviction that nuclear weapons are the only sure guarantee against attack.Faced with an irreversible NATO decision by his political masters, Galvin has taken a pragmatic line over the U.S.-Soviet intermediate-range nuclear forces treaty which Rogers once said gave him “gas pains.” Galvin says he can execute his primary mission of deterring war without U.S.medium-range nuclear missiles — although battles may lie ahead with the politicians over how to reshuffle the remaining nuclear arms and update them.MUST REBUILD He likens the withdrawal of the U.S.Pershing-2 and cruise missiles to taking bricks out of the wall of defence and sees it as his job to rebuild the wall with what is left.“I would like to make sure that the forces available to me.to defend are structured in the best possible way .What else would we expect military men to do?” NATO diplomats say Galvin’s more diplomatic approach makes him an easier person to work with and more to the taste of NATO’s political authorities at a time of crucial decisionmaking.“He listens to advice, thinks aloud constructively,” said one diplomat.“He is less imperial than Bernie." WAS IN PANAMA Galvin used his diplomatic skills in his last post as the Panama-based commander of U.S.forces in Latin America — one of the most sensitive field posts the U.S.services offers.But he has also served 10 out of the past 15 years in Europe in various military posts — and feels attuned to the needs and fears of the European allies.In peacetime, Galvin commands the 320,000 U.S.servicemen based in Western Europe.In his NATO role, he has little alliance hardware at his command and few alliance forces.In a war, he would set up headquarters in an underground bunker situated in a grassy knoll visible from his office and take command of 4.5 million men from the armies of Western Europe.His reading of what would happen in the early stages of a conflict with the Warsaw Pact is orthodox.UP TO 20 DAYS Galvin says NATO forces would “give a good account of themselves” in absorbing the brunt from the first wave of Soviet forces and holding the line.But after 10 to20days, the line could be in danger of crumbling and he would ha ve to turn to political authorities for permission to use nuclear weapons.Gorbachev, he believes, has persuaded his military to go along with nuclear-arms cuts by holding out the prospect of stripping Europe of its nuclear weapons and leaving Soviet conventional forces in an unassailable position.At what point would Galvin reassess the Soviet threat?“If the Soviets were willing to do a deep asymetrical reduction of their forces .to something like parity, I would think we had a change in strategy.” Living The RECORD—Thursday.May

perfect body is coming to an end.Perhaps it’s just an indication that a sense of realism is entering the realm of weight-watching and exercise.Whatever the possible social implications, doctors, scientists and experts are now saying it can be OK to be a little plump — in fact, it might be better to be a little chubby than a little skinny.In July, the federal government is expected to give its blessing to new weight guidelines for Canadians.Research has shown for some time that the old guidelines were too narrow ; the new ones indicate that your weight can range much more widely and be medically acceptable.In recent years, fitness leaders have been encouraging people not to be as hung up on weight.The goals of exercise are shifting from a focus on thin bodies to a focus on healthy bodies.When it releases its discussion paper on weight-gain prevention, the federal Health Department is expected to adopt the Body Mass Index (BMI) as the guide to the best Canadian weights.USES GRAPHS The BMI involves three different graphs — height on the left, weight in the middle and your score on the right.You find the spot on the left graph that shows your height, join that spot with a line to the spot on the middle graph that shows your weight and keep extending the line to the graph on the right to get your score.If your score is between 20 and 25 on the right graph, you are within the acceptable range.Some examples: a six-foot person could acceptably weigh between 140 and 180 pounds, a five-foot-eight person could be between 130 and 165 pounds and a five-foot-five person could be between 120 and 155 pounds.The old guides ge- nerally listed a range of about seven to 10 pounds for optimum weight at certain heights.If the line extends to the 25-plus region on the right graph, you weigh too much and are susceptible to high blood pressure, diabetes and heart trouble.If the line extends to the 19-or-less zone on the right graph, you likely weigh too little and could also be in trouble — chronic fatigue, heart problems, nutritional deficiencies, anemia or depression.Some athletes register in this region, however, and experts indicate that they may not be as seriously at risk.GETS BACKING The index, which was actually invented in the last century by a statistician who found a relationship between body weight and height, has already been endorsed by the Canadian Dietetic Association.The federal Fitness Department has used it for years as part of its larger standard fitness test.Research has found that the death and sickness rates in the 20-25 region are lowest.“What makes it unique is that it draws a link between weight and health,” says Kayla Glynn, a nutrition programs officer with the Health Department in Ottawa.“The terms ‘obesity’ and ‘overweight’ are value judgments." W’hy the wide range?Not all Ca nadians are built alike, Glynn notes.“As you go east to west, Canadians are taller and leaner.Eastern Canadians have shorter legs.” Indirectly, nutritionists and others hope the new guide also serves as a sort of psychological reinforcement for people concerned about their weight.“Women, in particular, have a self-image problem,” says Glynn.“If they know that it’s OK to be within a certain range of weight, maybe they won’t be as prone to get into the yo-yo dieting, where serious nutritional problems and health problems can result.” Committee investigates media’s treatment of disabled OTTAWA (CP) — Look at the cover of any glossy woman’s magazine, an advertisement for a candy bar or just about any TV show.You won’t likely see someone in a wheelchair, a child with a deformed arm or an old man with an obvious hearing problem.About 15 per cent of Canadians are disabled physically or mentally, but that reality is rarely reflected in the media.It’s a situation that has one member of Parliament on a crusade of sorts that may lead to significant changes in the way the broadcast and print media portray the disabled and the way Canadians perceive them.“We keep pushing this hard image of perfection that makes it very difficult for a lot of Canadians to live in a society where that’s happening,” says Patrick Boyer, the Conservative MP from the Toronto riding of Etobicoke-Lakeshore.“The norm is that we’ve got about 15 per cent of our people who have different degrees of mental and physical disability,” but it’s as if only the other 85 per cent of people eat, speak or live, Boyer says.It is what Boyer calls ‘ ‘the gentle apartheid,” where the voiceless are the powerless and the disabled are unable to crack society’s nar- row definition of the norm.TARGETS MEDIA Boyer’s target is the media.And his weapon is a special Commons committee — of which he is chairman — that has been investigating the media’s treatment of the disabled.The scene is a little uncommon: guide dogs used by the blind committee “observers” are sprawled out, snoozing on the floor, while three women in the corner of the room quickly recite proceedings in sign language for the deaf “observers” — one English, one French and the third a backup.Ironically, while the parliamentary press gallery often writes to excess about itself, at this committee the media are not there •— except for the reporters and TV network executives called to appear.This does not rankle Boyer, a backbench Tory who has occasionally spoken his mind in situations at odds with his party.“I don’t know how long I’m going to be in public life,” he says.“But as long as I’m here, if there’s one thing I can do, I would like to change or be a part of the process of changing that cultural attitude.” His aim is to bring the disabled into the “mainstream,” making them everyday people in the public eye, on television, in advertising, in the newsroom and on magazine covers.MADE HEADWAY Weeks before his committee is scheduled to report, Boyer seems to have already made headway.“A couple of things we have started in the committee are now going to be superseded before our report comes out in June,” he says with apparent glee.Communications Minister Flora MacDonald announced, for example, that federal legislation due soon in a new Broadcasting Act would require broadcasters to show “the reality of Canada” to television viewers.That reality includes disabled people, she told Boyer’s committee.And after a stern lecture and some serious prodding, Boyer also extracted a commitment from the Canadian Advertising Foundation to at least talk to advertisers about a code on how the disabled are shown in ads.Minutes earlier, foundation president Alan Rae told the committee why advertisers don’t show what appears out of the norm — “You do not have to show a handicapped person in an advertisement to have a handicapped person buy a product.” The Canadian Association of Broadcasters, representing most private radio and television interests, announced to the committee the idea of a voluntary standard aimed at increasing the number of disabled employees and improving their image over the airwaves.A* n* d* A1 A* A* /j* a* THE MUSIC OF WALES /Ï' PRESENTED BY: r5* iaeJBIOn cyM C01 montrtai MONTREAL WELSH MALE CHOIR SATURDAY, JUNE 4TH 8:00 P.M.KNOWLTON ACADEMY TICKETS AVAILABLE: 1) BOUTIQUE MAG PLUS 2) LEGION MEMBERS TICKETS: $5.00 SPONSORED BY: RCL BROME BRANCH #23 fl4 n1 a1.n4 n* fl4 A* D* A* a* a* d* n* fl* n* Chuck & Cathy's Greenhouse & Garden Centre at s2 50 a dozen We now have for you Marigolds & Petunias Also everything you need in annuals, perennials, herbs, vegetable plants, trees, shrubs, etc Our regular prices are often equal to the special prices of other garden centres.Example: Globe Cedars s2000 Flowering Crab Apple 6’ $1795 Sheep Manure 20 kilos s259 Open ewrydn til 8:30 p.«- Come to our garden centre and you will find the best quality at low prices, and warm service!

be tough to get the Cree in northern Quebec to forgo their traditional wooden canoes in favor of fibreglass models, but two years later he has no doubts the venture is afloat.“We’ll probably break even this year and next year we’ll start to make a profit,” said Weistche, manager of operations at the canoe plant in Waskaganish, a community on the southeastern tip of James Bay about 1,000 kilometres north of Quebec City.The James Bay Cree own 60 per cent of Cree-Yamaha Motor Enterprises, which builds the canoes, while Yamaha Motor Co.Ltd.of Japan controls the remaining 40 per cent.“The original plan was that we wouldn’t make money for the first three years in operation, just that we’d pay our start-up expenses,” said Weistche, one of 10 plant em ployees, including six laborers.But the business has thrived, he added, because natives have been won over by the longevity of the fibreglass canoes, which are used primarily for fishing.“The wooden ones last only about two to four years before you have to buy a new one, while the fibreglass ones are expected to last 10 to 15 years,” he said in a telephone interview DON'T BREAK “They’re a lot stronger.The wooden ones could get a hole in them if they hit a rock.But the fibreglass ones don’t break as much Cree-Yamaha built about 140 fibreglass canoes in the first two years but sold only 70 — mostly to native reserves around James Bay and on the Ontario border.“The first year, people here were so used to the wooden canoes, but their attitudes are slowly starting to change.” One sales drawback is the dearth of canoe dealerships around James Bay which forces potential customers to travel hundreds of kilometres to Waskaganish or Moo-sonee, Ont., to buy the fibreglass boats.The federal government contributed $120,000 of the original capital to Waskaganish Economic Development Corp., the Cree-owned parent company of the joint venture, which oversees several economic projects in the region.Yamaha kicked in $80,000.Buyers can choose a seven-metre boat or an eight-metre model with a 12-seat capacity.The shorter 240-kilogram models sell for $4,200, or $4,000 if purchased wholesale by a dealer, while the eight-metre, 360-kilogram canoes fetch $6,900 or $5,500, Weistche said.IS PLEASED Martin Welder, vice-president of Cree-Yamaha Motor Enterprises, and senior general manager in administration with Yamaha in Toronto, is very pleased with Cree-Yamaha’s success.“It gives us a lot of satisfaction being able to go into a market where we’re replacing something traditional with something much better,” Welder said in an interview.“Naturally, with people learning something new, there’s always a learning curve but within a relatively short period of time they got to building those boats with an expertise which gives a very well-finished product.” Welder acknowledges that transporting the canoes can sometimes be hazardous, particularly during the harsh northern winter when only the road can be used.“But during the spring there is a barge that goes up and down the coast and they have been known to come in, buy their boats and take them back with them on other boats.Yamaha’s role in the business is strictly hands off, says Welder.“We did most of the design, but the whole production environment is totally native.The foremen, the workers, everybody is native.We were there to set it up and we review monthly reports but that’s the extent of it.” Thousands of Canadians are waiting for the gift of a life-saving transplant.The Kidney Foundation of Canada SPECIAL ON ALL GENERAL TIRES 40%

completely unattended will eventually wither and die.While your investment portfolio isn’t quite as delicate, it too requires occasional attention if it is to grow and thrive.Most investors’ financial objectives and resources change over time.As we get older, our goals may shift from increasing our annual disposable income, to saving for a child’s education, to ensuring a comfortable retirement income.As they occur during your investing lifetime, these changes should spur a review of your portfolio in order to make sure that it remains current with your needs.For example, while a young executive may be most concerned with the growth of his or her income and may invest in more speculative issues, the safety of the principal will become increasingly more important after marriage and family come into the picture.Following the children’s education a review of his or her investment portfolio may be required, especially if family income has increased to the point at which they enter a new tax bracket.With approaching retirement, this same investor should examine his or her portfolio to be sure that it will provide ample income following retirement.In addition to lifestyle changes, many external events also should prompt you to review your portfolio periodically.The recent ex- traordinary changes in the stock market.for example, have naturally forced many investors to look carefully at their investments.Similarly, other major factors such as economic fluctuations, tax reform, significant political changes, or international developments such as trade agreements should alsosignal a review.Investment Interest By Daniel Watier Often, portfolios arc assembled haphazardly over a period of years without regard for how their contents “fit” together.Stock tips, investments in companies we work for and random impulsive buys often result in unfocused and unbalanced portfolios.If you tend to build your portfolio in this fashion, you should review it regularly to ensure that it is “on track” and working towards your fiscal objectives.At the same time, these periodic examinations also provide opportunities for rethinking investment priorities, so that you may fine-tune your portfolio accordingly.The introduction of a new investment product or service offers yet another incentive to take inventory of your holdings.Today’s financial services companies are constantly developin-gnew and more exciting products and services to meet the changing demands of investors.While j not every one may be right for you.review them to determine how each might fit into your portfolio.There are many investment ! planning programs offered by brokerage firms to help guide you through your investing lifetime.One such program is McLeod Young Weir’s Personal Investment Review which assists investors in realistically assessing their financial resources and then applying them systemati- | eally and sensibly.Remember though, that careful and periodic review of your portfolio is the key to meeting your financial objectives and remaining in healthy “fiscal” condition.Daniel Watier is an investment executive at McLeod Young Weir.McLEOD YOUNG WEIR Should you hire a financial planner?By Karen Lewis The Canadian Press Now that you’ve figured out just how big a bite the taxman’s taken, you’re probably swearing that your financial affairs must be in better shape next year, and you may even be tempted to get help.What about a financial planner?“The best way to accumulate money is not to spend it—even on a financial planner,” says Montreal-based economist Dian Cohen.Preparing a budget is likely a better answer for the average wage-earner or family taking home $25,000 to $30,000 a year, she says.Unless you get a windfall, your income jumps, or you need complicated tax advice, financial planning may not be for you.Of course, if you’re a confirmed spendaholic, a financial planner couldn’t hurt, Cohen says.A planner is part sounding board, part guide, says Jennifer Hamilton, a Toronto-based financial planner who says she sometimes feels like TV’s Bob Newhart in his old role as a deadpan psychologist.“Frequently clients come in and say : ‘This is my problem and these are the pros and cons.I think I’m going to do this.What do you Career REPRESENTATIVE -SALESMAN A FEED MILL IN THE SHERBROOKE AREA IS SEEKING A REPRESENTATIVE - SALESMAN IN THE ANIMAL

‘Jennifer you’re great.’” MONEY « MONITOR iiSlHi ft.ill! ¦¦¦ mmrm IT’S YOUR MONEY Timothy Egan, president of the Canadian Association of Financial Planners, says planning pays dividends.“The long-term benefits far outweigh the costs,” he says.Whatever the reason, if you’ve decided it’s for you, never forget the No.1 rule of thumb: it’s your money at stake.You can’t ask too many questions and should start by asking for the following : — A sample written plan to check the planner’s work and approach.— A rundown of his education and experience.Insurance agents, accountants, brokers, trust companies, lawyers and independent planners are among those getting into this growing field.Most are regulated by their professions.If they belong to the 1,100- member planners association, they agree to follow a code of ethics that says a member should place a client’s interests before his own and try to act impartially.Some only get commissions on financial products they sell from life insurance to mutual funds.Some only charge fees and others use a mix of fees and commission.BE WARY Be wary of a person who seems to want to sell you only one financial product.Ask for a form disclosing all types of compensation the planner gets in connection with the service.That should tell you whether he accepts bonuses such as vacations from sponsors of investment products, or if he or his firm has investments in products they sell.When buying, write the cheque to the trust company, bank or finan cial institution involved, not the planner.Although some disagree, finan cial adviser Tom Delaney of Toronto says he believes an indepen dent planner — one not affiliated with a financial institution or its products — is the best bet for ser ving up “the widest range of products available on the best terms available.” Others say planners of all types can do a good job, so long as they do a comprehensive plan.That means the adviser takes stock of your financial situation and goals, suggests strategies, writes a plan and helps you act on it.The plan should be updated regularly.Loisir, Chasse et Pèche 1$ 5 Québec .1 T0lL If you’re banking somewhere else, you’ll probably have to wait until

quality holsteins — Crack i RICHMOND — Milk producers from Quebec.Ontario and the United States were keen bidders at the Ninth Annual Craekholm Sale held here last weekend Top seller at $6,300 was a December heifer raised by Karl Wanja.Warwick, going home to Illinois.USA.“The trend this year seems to be towards the red and white holstein and this calf comes from a quality line of great producers with a good butterfat content.” commented David "Butch” Crack, auctioneer and organiser of the event.The Craekholm event is one that has a high rate of success for several reasons."The bottom line is that produ- cers know the cattle presented here have been chosen with the regular average producer in mind.” said Crack “We try to chosse cattle with a good généalogie background as well as current records to base potential on.“But we re not looking for international champions for this sale.” he said.“We want animals that will VENTE DF PRINTEMPS DU QUEBEC iiees d Fncon Auction Selinee oiM'Owck

the guy who wants to put more milk into his line or improve the quality of his stock.” STAGGERING COST The cost of getting established in the dairy business today is staggering.A standard quality milking line of 30 cows will cost at least $75,000 milk quotas needed can cost around $250.000 and there's stil the cost of investing in a farm with the other necessary equip ment.“That's how we try to organize this sale.When a sale average runs around $2.500 per animal and there are no really outstanding sales such as we had last year w ith the $1 million dollar bull, we can assume that good quality milk producers are running around sale average price, an accessible amount for a well-managed operation looking for good stock," said Crack.101 SOLD About 200 people turned out for the sale which was held in the new beef and small animals pavilion at the Richmond Fair grounds.One hundred and one animals were sold with several in the $5,000 range “One fact we re proud of.All these animals are from the province.” said Crack."So the sale not only helps out the individual buyers who have an opportunity to pick and choose from the sale catalogue.but it gives quite a boost to Quebec bred and raised animals." “This type of auction provided producers the opportunity to shop for the cow or heifer he is looking for.Having a selection is very important to today's cost conscious milk producer." said Crack.Kingman Claude Pépin shouts directions to his crew.Cloning the perfect steak is just down the road GUELPH, Ont.(CP) — Gangly and stubborn with big brown eyes, I.V.looks like any other black-and-white calf.But the month-old Holstein is a celebrity, created by University of Guelph researcher Robert Stub-bings from a bovine egg matured and fertilized in vitro — in a glass container.I.V.’s natural mother was long dead before the calf was even conceived.Stubbings, a reproductive biologist who jokes that he has “created life after death,” used an egg from a slaughtered cow to produce the healthy, 42-kilogram calf.Stubbings’ technique, which has recently been matched in other countries, could have a significant impact in producing low-cost cattle herds anywhere in the world.The technology also has the potential for paving the way for other breeding strategies, including animal cloning and gene manipulation.CLONES CATTLE “Right now, for example, we could produce a high-quality herd in Colombia at a very low cost,” Stubbings said.“The future is that a person could work in a room and never see a field or the light of day and be cloning identical, Grade-A beef cattle, one after the other, and perfect every time.” Cloning the perfect steak may still be down the road, but Stubbings has already attracted considerable business interest.Other researchers have developed calf embryos in vitro from mature eggs, but Stubbings, whose current research is the basis for his PhD studies, is the first in Canada to develop a calf from an egg that was both matured and fertilized in a test tube.I.V.started life as an immature egg, or oocyte, recovered from the ovaries of a slaughterhouse cow within 30 minutes of the animal’s death.The calf is Stubbings’ first success after two years of research.PLACED IN CULTURE After being isolated, the oocyte was placed in a hormone culture inside an incubator while it matured.An overnight rendezvous in a test tube with sperm cells from a donor bull fertilized the egg, which was later implanted in a recipient cow.The process took seven days, and I.V.was born nine months later.Stubbings said his discovery of a way to develop embryos from oocytes, instead of mature, ready-to-be-fertilized eggs, represents “the big jump” from earlier in-vitro fer- tilization efforts.“Researchers have been trying, without success, to do this for 50 years,” he said.Stubbings’ technique is particularly useful because of the huge supply of slaughterhouse cow ovaries.The organs offer a readily available source of immature eggs to develop embryos, which can then be frozen and kept virtually forever.Globetrotting chick collector works long hours BRANCHTON, Ont.(CP) — Dave Roberts has a job many might envy — he travels the world with a slew of chicks.For the last 16 years, Roberts has jetted to two dozen countries on five continents with lots of chicks in tow — the yellow-downed, peeping variety, that is.As traffic manager for Shaver Poultry near Kitchener, Roberts says visiting foreign countries with planeloads of newly hatched chicks rarely involves sightseeing and always includes long hours, politics and paperwork.He’s flown on 25 charters to Colombia in the last 10 years, for example, and has been outside of Bogota only three times.“By the time you get to the other end, you’re too tired to do anything after 10 or 11 hours of flying,” he says.Shaver Poultry ships two million breeder chicks a year by air from three hatcheries to 50 countries around the world.Another million chicks are distributed from subsidiaries in England, France and Alabama.Roberts has considered purchasing a company plane to cut freight charges that can run as high as $1.50 a chick, but the range of orders Shaver Poultry receives makes it difficult to determine the right-sized craft.Roberts has flown over 100,000 kilometres some years, but now only flies about 32,000 kilometres annually.On a typical “chick-sitting” flight, Roberts has to maintain ideal temperature conditions for his chicks.Less than one per cent of shipped chicks die in transit, he says, but it’s no easy task to ensure such a high survival rate.If the temperature in the plane reaches into the 32-degree C range, chicks will begin to suffer from heat prostration and will suffocate.If it dips to 10 degrees, chilling will occur, so Roberts likes to keep the aircraft at a temperature between 18 and 21 degrees."THE ASSOCIATES" Professional Services for Individuals & Businesses We Settle Estates Estate and Income Tax

for their regular monthly missionary fellowship meeting, with Mrs Hill in charge and welcoming all present.She opened the meeting by reading an Easter poem.Mrs.Jean Wamholtz was at the piano for the singing of hymns.Bea Stark was asked to give the treasurer’s report bringing us up to date on the financial status of the WMF after disbursing the regular commitments to Doris and Marjorie in their missionary work for Angola.Evelyn Beaudoin read the minutes of the last meeting, these were approved as read, seconded by Mildred Beckwith.Mildred Beckwith prepared requests for prayer on Angola, Nigeria, the local front of Camps, and workers in the Province of Quebec amongst the French speaking population.She suggested that we remember especially the Dibbles and Wheelers in Nigeria this month as they were to have a two week Bible Camp for anywhere from 200 to 400 women.They are keen and desire to study the Word of God but it also requires considerable preparation and thought for food supplies for the physical need as well as time for preparation of the spiritual food.We were favoured with a duet by Ruby Cutler and Evelyn Beaudoin who sang “Keep on Believing For God Answers Prayer” and “Is He Satisfied with Me”.While the offering was being taken we sang “Jesus Never Fails” reminding us that His work is carried on by the faithfulness of his people giving.Mrs.Hill introduced the guest speaker, Mrs.Sheila Buchanan, who with her husband is involved in the teaching ministry and outreach at Bethel Bible Institute.From Romans 12:2 she brought out how necessary it was to be transformed by the renewing of our minds and in Philippians 2:24 reminding ourselves that as Paul said, “I am crucified with Christ nevertheless I live, yet not I but Christ liveth in me and the life that I now live, I live by the faith of Jesus Christ who died and gave himself for me.” She also reminded us that we are here for God’s glory and our purpose for being here is to glorify God.lola Bean closed the meeting inprayer giving thanks also for the refreshments.Mrs.Baldwin and Mrs.Hill were the hostesses.On Sunday April 10 many enjoyed the luncheon held at noon following the Family Bible Hour.Mrs.Munkittrick was in charge but was ably assisted by Mrs.Haf-fenden and others.Following lunch the group enjoyed a time of fellowship in song, then Wanda Stur-tevant, who is the Intervarsity representative in this area, gave a very interesting and informative talk on her work amongst the students at Bishop’s University and CEGEP (Lennoxville campus) as well as the students at the Alexander Galt Regional, Richmond and Massey-Vanier Schools, meeting with them for Bible studies on a regular basis.Though there are times of discouragemennt, in the final analysis there is much to encourage as students listen to the Word of God and put their faith and trust in the Lord.She also mentioned the fact there is a new executive chosen for the upcoming fall session but her most exciting news was God’s answer to her prayer in that she had been given a car which facilitates her travel around to the various schools and other events for which she is responsible.We rejoiced with her and praised God for his goodness to his servant among the young people in our area.Friday evening April 22nd was Olympic Games night at Grace Chapel when young and old joined in the fun under the direction of Cecil and Betty Blenkhorn.Yes, there were medals — gold, silver and bronze — for the winners of each Olympic event.Some of the participants were Jonathan Stymiest.Tommy Ryan and his sisters Michele, Sarah, Kelly and Rebekah, Jenny and Lydia Palik and their friend Fabienne and Andrew Hatch.The evening closed with light refreshments and the general consensus of opinion was that this must be done again, for it is at times like these when you come out of your shell discovering that there is actually no age gap and you get to know your fellow Christians, young and old.The regular annual meeting of the Canadian Bible Society was held on April 26th at Grace Chapel on Montreal St.Over 150 guests sat down to a delicious dinner organized by the local Bible Society committee and ably assisted in serving at the tables by a number of young people.Following the dinner Mr.Ed.Mills, chairman of the local Bible Society welcomed all present, then called on Roger Bailey, Lois and David Heath who sang “Every Day People”.Later int he program Lois and David rendered a duet, “We Are So Blest”; Roger Bailey sand “I Will Glory in the Cross” and David sang “In the Midst of It All”.Following the election of officers over which Fran Hatch presided, Rev.Blake Walker introduced the guest speaker, Rev.Nick Brotherwood, Rector of Quebec Lodge on Lake Massawippi.He first mentioned the importance the Bible Society placed on translating the scriptures into the hundreds of languages and dialects in the world and putting these scriptures into the hands of the people.It is of supreme importance to all humanity to have God’s Word in their own language.He then gave his testimony as to how he came to that specific act of accepting the Lord as his personal Saviour.Rev.Brotherwood proceeded to speak of the Bible saying, What does the Bible say about itself?Psalm 119:105 - It is a lamp.“Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.” We must know God’s Word if we want to know His will.Deuteronomy 8:3 — Man does not live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord.A lot of people only read the Bible occasionally therefore exist on a very poor or insufficient diet spiritually.Psalm 119:130 — It gives light and understanding.Hebrews 4:12 — It is living and active and sharper than a two-edged sword.Psalm 119:160 — It is eternal — endures for ever.Ephesians 6:17 — It is the sword of Spirit.Matthews 24:35 — Will never pass away.2 Timothy 3:16 — It is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.Canada seems to be moving away from a Christian oriented society.Is the Bible relevant to our society today?If it is ten why do we only read the bits we like and the bits we don’t like we tend to leave or even tear out of our Bibles?In Luke 6:46 as the Lord taught the people he asked them, “why call ye me Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?” Are we hearers of the Word and not doers?James 1:22.Do we claim to know god and by our actions we deny him?Titus 1:16.If the Bible is relevant to our society today then why do we not read it and do what it says?Ron Rublee thanked the speaker for giving us the challenge to get into the Word more.Rev.Matthews closed in prayer after reading a poem which had been written by Jessie McGee.So many depend on THE RED CROSS GIVE GENEROUSLY!

typified a common breed of bridge player — the result player.Just watch his reaction to the result of the current deal.North’s jump to four clubs over South's response was a splinter bid, showing a singleton club, four-card support for South’s spades and substantial high-card values over opening-bid strength.With the ace of hearts and solidifying spade values, South happily cue-bid the side-ace.North bid five hearts, and South was justified in jumping to six spades Nevertheless, when dummy came down, declarer was not overjoyed.He could see that the success of the slam would depend upon the location of the diamond king Clubs were led and continued.Declarer ruffed, played a spade to his king and immediately took the diamond finesse.When that held, he cashed the ace and queen of spades and took a second diamond finesse Only then did he exclaim happily, “Well bid, partner!” We’re all acquainted with this breed of player and are sometimes guilty of the same failing.Had the diamond king been with East, South would have been quick to shout, “How could you bid five hearts with only 17 high-card points?” In fact, North did bid too much when he tried five hearts.He should not expect to miss a good slam by signing off in four spades.If South’s hand also included the diamond king or the club ace, South would surely have bid again.North-South would have then reached a slam that was genuinely well-bid.James Jacoby’s books "Jacoby on Bridge” and “Jacoby on Card Games” (written with his father, the late Oswald Jacoby) are now available at bookstores.Both are published

David Harrison WATERLOO — There could very well be apply-within’ signs all over Waterloo, but they're not at all necessary because applications are being processed everyday.Jobs are being filled at record speed.Not just any job, the job of a triathlete: one of the toughest anyone can expect to perform.Once again the Waterloo Triathlon is right around the corner, this year with some major changes.The triathlon will do its' impersonation of a soap commercial: new, improved and better.No longer is it a triathlon in the strict sense of the word.The directors have made a some major changes for the June 26th running of the Waterloo Triathlon.The changes are designed to increase the number of racers and expand the regional impact of the event.In its’ sixth year, the Waterloo Triathlon is hoping to increase the numbers of participants by over 200 per cent.This would be no small accomplishment, but director Steve Sullivan is conifi-dent that the new changes will bring in larger numbers.“We expect to have more people because this year it is not really a triathlon — it is three different events,” said Sullivan.The three events (1.5k swim, 40k bike race and 10k run) will not run consecutively.Instead, each event has been given its’ own starting time.The swim will start at 10 a m., followed by the 40k bike race at 12 noon, and the run at 2 p.m.This is a bizarre change from the regular triathlon format, but one which could help the Waterloo race to increase participation.Last year the triathlon attracted 150 competitors, this year however, Waterloo is preparing for more than 400 athletes.This is all thanks to the changed format, said Sullivan.“I think this year the triathlon will be a lot better.After five years the average people we had were from the Townships region.We had a lot of trouble getting people from outside the area.So we split up the triathlon so we could get more racers," said on e of the triathlon’s directors.“I think we will see a lot more people coming from Ottawa, Montreal and the States.Sullivan added.The flexilbe of the triathlon will allow people participate in w hole, or in part.“Racers will be allowed to participate in just one event or all three events, (Iron-man).There will also be a lot of team racing as well.” Money prizes will be awarded to the winners and runners-up of the best overall individual triathlon as well as best team time and also for the best times in the three disciplines.Ziegler finally comes out of the woodwork By Terry Scott BOSTON (CP) — This time, NHL president John Ziegler was available to make a decision on another strange development in the league over which he presides.In a Stanley Cup semifinal earlier this month, Ziegler could not be reached when the National Hockey League had a walkout by referees.The officials were protesting a court injunction allowing New Jersey Devils coach Jim Schoenfeld to stay on the job despite a league-imposed one-game suspension.When a 4,000-volt switch overloaded, cutting off electricity inside the Garden with 3:23 to play in the second period of Tuesday night’s Stanley Cup playoff game between the Bruins and the Edmonton Oilers, Ziegler moved into action.He convened a meeting that included Oiler coach and general manager Glen Sather and owner Peter Pocklington, and Harry Sin-den and Terry O’Reilly, the gene- ral manager and coach of the Bruins.The group discussed a number of options, mindful of some of the problems they faced.The game could not be played here either tonight or Thursday night because the building was occupied by the Celtics of the National Basketball Association.PLAY STOPS Resumption once the power was restored, about a half-hour after the 9:33 p.m.EDT blackout, was rejected because there was no guarantee that the electricity would stay on.“As it turns out, we have something designed to take over in this situation,” said Ziegler, who read the league by-law calling for the game to be replayed if a seventh game is necessary.Ziegler informed a throng of reporters at a chaotic news conference in an area near the security entrance about 90 minutes after the lights went out.“It’s an act of God and we must allow the by-laws to take over,” added Ziegler.“We’re making history in these playoffs — so far, we’ve been invol-ved in two blackouts and a walkout,” said John Cuniff, the Bruins assistant coach.The Bruins were in Montreal when a province-wide power failure temporarily delayed the opening game of the Adams Division final against the Canadiens.The Bruins were also the team playing against New Jersey when the Schoenfeld episode unfolded.LIGHTS OUT Charlie Huddy, the injured Oilers defenceman described the scene in the dressing room during the blackout as “a three-ring circus,” with players sitting around in soaked underwear uncertain of what was happening.Added Greg Hawgood, the Bruins’ rookie defenceman, “You think you've seen it all, and then this.There were times in the game when the fog was so bad we couldn’t see the puck, but that was minor compared to what happened next.” Hawgood had some reason for rejoicing — the game statistics will count, meaning that he can savor his first NHL goal.Kevin Lowe, the Edmonton defenceman, said, “it’s a little disappointing for us, but we’re still capable of playing a lot more hockey.We’re not going to let it hurt us.We’re going to go out and play well, wherever it may be.” Lowe suggested that the blackout should be a message that “it’s time to get a newer building” for the Bruins to play in.Until Craig Simpson’s goal tied the score 3-3 just prior to the blackout, Boston’s rookie defence-man Glen Wesley had a starring role, scoring twice, including a short-handed effort after stealing the puck from Wayne Gretzky.“I’ve always dreamed about a night like this, but it’s gone now,” said Wesley.English soccer in jeopardy thanks to fans LONDON (AP) — With rowdy scenes returning to the terraces and police conceding “own goals” in the courts, English soccer could be losing the battle to eliminate crowd violence — at the worst possible time.One month before the sport’s ¦ governing body in Europe decides whether to allow English clubs back into its competitions, administrators of the game here fear all their efforts to keep out the hooligans may suddenly be for nothing.More than 200 fans were arrested and 90 people injured before, during and after last Saturday’s international exhibition at Wembley Stadium between England and Scotland.The oldest international soccer meeting, dating back to 1872, was marked by brawling between rival fans who somehow had obtained tickets for the same enclosure.Bert Millichip, chairman of the English Football Association, said: “Our clubs feel the time is right to return (to Europe).But if we cannot control our spectators in this country, how on earth can we control them when we are playing abroad?” The Wembley Stadium incidents prompted Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher to say in Parliament: “Once again we had incidents of violence and hooliganism which disfigured football (soccer) and will make it much more difficult to get back into Europe.” English clubs have been banned since the 1985 Heysel Stadium tragedy in Brussels.Thirty-nine people died in a stampede caused by rioting Liverpool fans at the Champions’ Cup final against Italy’s Juventus.DECISION PENDING UEFA has promised a decision on June 25 whether to re-admit the English clubs for the 1988-89 season.But first, it wants the chance to monitor the behavior of the fans who follow England’s national team at this summer’s European championships in West Germany.Efforts to seek out ringleaders among the most feared fans in England have even been thwarted in the courts.Three separate trials were halted because of the unreliability of police evidence against the accused.At the time of the arrests toward the end of last year, police and soccer authorities in England were confident they were winning the battle against the hooligans.But 40 arrests at an all-London FA Cup match between Arsenal and Millwall in January and last Saturday’s incidents at Wembley have marked a swing back toward the grim days of 1985.Hans Bangerter, UEFA’s gene ral secretary, said the Wembley brawling had dented the case for the readmittance of the English.“After what happened on Saturday, I feel this is a very severe setback for the cause of the English clubs.” he said.Sport shorts Scoreboard s TORONTO (CP) — The Toronto Blue Jays announced Wednesday the signing of right-handed pitcher Brad Evaschuk of

Certainly Wesley, eager to redeem himself for the mistake in Edmonton, was playing his best hockey.Anxious to get through the Edmonton International airport and onto the team bus.the former Portland Winter Hawk junior said it was a case of getting the breaks and getting some rest.‘ Our team finally got some breaks,” he said.“That’s what we hadn’t been getting.” Wesley’s goal came on a two-on-one break after the rookie stole the puck from Wayne Gretzky inside Boston’s blueline.“Gretzky doesn’t often make mistakes like that so you have to say it was a break for us.” More important than the breaks was the rest.The Bruins had played the first two games with five defencemen and then went to four after Michael Thelven suffered a slight concussion when hit by Edmonton’s Marty McSorley.BOOSTS DEFENCE Tuesday night coach Terry O’Reilly went with six defencemen for the first time, adding Hawgood.another rookie, and veteran Reed Larson to the roster.“That helped a lot,” saidWesley.“It's difficult to play four or five defencemen, especially against a team that has so much speed, as the Oilers do.You have to pace yourself and try not to wear yourself out by the third.The defence got it trouble in Game 1 and have been in trouble throughout the series.” Thelven may be ready for tonight after McSorley knocked him out of Game 3.giving O'Reilly a choice of which defencemen he wants.The Bruin coach will also have to decide whether to start Rejean Lemelin or Andy Moog in goal.Both have played well but, thus far.neither has been able to produce a win.The fault for that probably lies with the Boston offence.In the first two games here, Boston was held to a total of 26 shots -14 in the first game - and four goals in 3-2 and 4-2 losses.They had more offensive chances in the two games in Boston and Wesley said if the Bruins are to prolong the series, they'll have to get a lot more pressure on goalten-der Grant Fuhr.who had been enjoying sort of a holiday.“We have to get a lot more shots on Fuhr.We have to get into the offensive zone where we can create opportunities for ourselves working around the boards, grinding it out through the corners.” Playing Boston hockey in Edmonton Sather doesn’t think playing at home gives the Oilers an advantage.EDMONTON (CP) — Notes and quotes from the Stanley Cup final Wednesday : Playing the fourth game of the championship series in Edmonton doesn’t favor either team in the view of Glen Sather, president, general manager and co-head coach of the Oilers.“If home-ice advantage is a big deal, then, yeah, it favors us,” Sather said.“But, I don’t think it does.” The Oilers are 10-0 in the playoffs at Northlands Coliseum.Edmonton had a 2-10-2 record at the Boston Garden before winning game three of the final 6-3 last Sunday.“The conditions to play hockey (in Edmonton) are better than in Boston by a country mile,” Sather added.“It’s a nice, modern building .big dressing rooms, the showers work, several toilets.“You can actually glide on the ice in Edmonton.In Boston, it’s tough to glide.It’s like skating in sand.Conditions are tough there right now.” Sather indicated defenceman Charlie Huddy may dress tonight in the second attempt to play the fourth game of the final.Huddy has missed five games (six if you count the abbreviated Tuesday game in Boston) after suffering a severe Charley horse in the previous series against the Detroit Red Wings.The Oilers have used four defencemen extensively against Boston — Steve Smith and Randy Gregg as a pair, with Kevin Lowe partnered with Craig Muni.The other Edmonton combination has featured the less-skilled duo of Marty McSorely and Jeff Beukeboom.They usually are shifted with the Edmonton forward line of M ark Messier, Glenn Anderson and Craig Simpson.Sather said the Wayne Gretzky turnover last game which led to a shorthanded goal by rookie Boston defenceman Glen Wesley was not necessarily a bad play by the Oiler star.“Just because Wayne got stripped of the puck on the blue line, I’m certainly not going to bench him,” Sather said.“Wesley made a great play on it.“People think Wayne made a bad play, but I think Wesley made a great play.It happens.” The hockey season is not too long, Sather said, as long as teams have a building suited for games at this time of the spring.“They’re going to play basketball until the middle of June,” he said.“We don’t have a problem with fog in Edmonton.” Boston general manager Harry Sinden, a fishing pal of Sather’s during the off-season, is one of the best executives in the National Hockey League, Sather said.“Harry’s been great through the whole thing, very understanding about everything,” Sather said.“He sees the league first and the situation in New Jersey was probably tougher than the thing in Boston.” The Bruins had to play a playoff game against the New Jersey Devils with amateur officials on the ice after the game was boycotted by NHL officials following a court order allowing suspended Devil coach Jim Schoenfeld back behind the bench.Gretzky called the suspension of Tuesday's game a “blessing in disguise” because he thought “someone was going to probably lose an eye’’ in the fog at Boston Garden.“Players with white tape on their sticks, we couldn’t see their sticks,” said Gretzky."It was kind of scary because you had no judgment.“You couldn’t anticipate where the puck would go because you couldn’t see the puck at times.It was a strange game and maybe (the suspension of play) was the best thing that could happen.” Should the Oilers have to return to Boston for game five Saturday, Gretzky has some definite feelings about strategies in the confining Boston Garden.“You have to be smart, you have to bump and grind, be strong along the walls, shoot from anywhere inside the blue line and basically play (the Boston Bruins’) style of hockey,” he said.“There’s no room, really, for anything fancy.” The possibility of winning the Stanley Cup at home, where the Oilers captured their first three playoff tiles, appeals to Gretzky.“We would have enjoyed winning in Boston,” he said, “but listen, when it comes to the Stanley Cup, it doesn’t matter where you win.“We’ve been good a home, unbeaten, so we don’t mind this at all.Game four in Edmonton has to work against (Boston).” Jordan named Most Valuable CHICAGO (AP) — Michael Jordan of the Chicago Bulls was named the NBA’s Most Valuable Player on Wednesday, becoming the first Defensive Player of the Year to win the award.But Jordan still has not reached his primary goal — bringing the National Basketball Association championship to Chicago.“Michael wants to win.I don’t think he will be satisfied until we win it all,” said Jerry Krause, the Bulls’ vice president for basketball operations.Jordan, 25, who averaged 35.0 points per game to lead the league in scoring for the second consecutive season, was golfing somewhere in the Carolinas and could not even be reached by his own club, Krause said.But in the past, the Chicago guard known for his acrobatic slam dunks has said winning the MVP award was one of the goals he had set for himself at the start of the season.Jordan received 47 of a possible 80 first-place votes from a panel of sportswriters and broadcasters for a total of 665 points in the MVP voting.Larry Bird of the Boston Celtics, a three-time MVP, finished second with 16 first-place votes and 527 total points.Magic Johnson of the Los Angeles Lakers, last year’s MVP, also received 16 first-place votes and accumulated 508 total points, while Charles Barkley of the Philadelphia 76ers had the remaining first-place vote.Earlier this month, Jordan was named the league’s top defensive player, the first to win high-scoring honors and the defence award in the same season.Jordan, who joined the Bulls in 1984, scored a season-high 59 points against the Detroit Pistons April 3.He scored 50 and 55 points in the first two games of the NBA playoffs, becoming the first player to score 50 or more points in consecutive playoff games.Jordan finished the season with 259 steals, the league’s highest total, and 131 blocked shots.It was the second consecutive season Jordan had more than 200 steals and 100 blocks — something no other NBA player has done.Jordan led the league in minutes played, averaging 40.4 minutes per game, and led Chicago with a .535 field goal percentage.Soccer voilence breaks out in China BEIJING (Reuter) — Thousands of Chinese soccer fans attacked police and besieged a rival team’s hotel during a night-long riot in which 135 people were injured and more than 40 arrested, official reports said Wednesday.The rioters battled armed police with sticks, stones, bottles and fire extinguishers at Nanchong, in the southwestern province of Sichuan, after a draw between the Sichuan and Tianjin youth teams eliminated the home team from a national competition.The clashes Monday night were China’s most serious sporting violence since unprecedented anti-foreign riots erupted in Beijing on May 19, 1985, when China lost a World Cup soccer qualifying match to Hong Kong.The Liberation Army Daily said Monday’s trouble began when police arrested two fans who had invaded the Nanchong pitch following the game to berate Tianjin players over an alleged foul.Rioters then smashed stadium windows and decorations, set ablaze a police car and five police motorcycles and attacked firemen battling the flames, the newspaper said at- POLICEMEN HURT Sixty-three of the wounded were policemen, it said, adding that Chi nese journalists were also tacked.A mob of thousands later moved into the streets of the city and besieged police headquarters and the hotel where the Tianjin team was staying.Lv i\t VàV ^ \ > ¦% ""
