C 1908 Soutnam Syncicate By Jack Brans well SHERBROOKE — The only thing more intense than Hollywood gossip columnists sifting through garbage for the latest scoop is sports pundits in this province trying to predict the Montreal Canadiens' next coach.Those gifted in the literary way-have all but crowned Sherbrooke Canadiens' coach Pat Burns as the heir apparent.The former Gatineau cop-turned-hockey coach has been waiting by his phone ever since the Canadiens and Jean Perron parted company.So far the only calls Burns has received are from the media demanding to know when he will be named the next coach of Les Canadiens.Burns insists the last time he talked to Montreal’s general manager Serge Savard was early this month at the Memorial Cup when, so far as anyone knew.Jean Perron was still the Hab's coach.CALLS MONTREAL Although Burns was known to make the occasional call to Jacques Lemaire for coaching advise this season he says."1 don't really bother Montreal.1 just do my job down here.If they need me.they call here.Mr.Savard is a busy man." But despite Burns' plea of innocence both the English and French media maintain his ascension is etched in stone.Burns will be posing with Savard by Wednesday, maybe as early as tomorrow, or else there are going to be a lot of embarrassed people So w hat is this coronation based on besides ‘reliable sources .’ There is the fact that Montreal hires bilingual coaches.The other clue — a rare one given by Savard is that the Habs would prefer to stay within their organization Burns does speak both of Canada's official languages along with See A BURNING page 15 Gorbachev talks to Reagan Leave domestic matters to us MOSCOW (AP) — President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev edged forward in discussion on arms issues Monday in a summit session eclipsed by Reagan’s meeting with dissidents and his challenge to the Soviet leader to usher in “a new age of religious freedom.’’ Quoting the Russian poet Alexander Pushkin.Reagan told Grbachev.“It’s time my friend, it’s time,” as he sounded the human-rights theme on the second day of his five-day visit.In a meeting with several dozen Some Soviet anger just for show — Canadian official By Warren Caragata ! MOSCOW (CPI — President Ronald Reagan had no choice but to publicly tell Moscow Soviet respect for human rights has a way to go yet, a Canadian official sa;d Monday.Reagan spent Monday dealing with human-rights issues, addressing the question of religious freedom at a restored Moscow-monastery and meeting a group of dissidents and their families at the residence of the U S.ambassador.While the Soviets expressed some public indignation with Reagan’s high-profile, human-rights crusade, the official said much of the anger is likely just for show.The Soviets realize Reagan has no choice but to raise the issue publicly, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.Gennady Gerasimov, chief spokesman for the Soviet government, declined to directly criticize Reagan but said the dissidents Reagan met “are not the best of the Soviet public — rather on the contrary.” And Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev said the Soviets want to expand contacts with the United States at all levels but “without interfering in domestic reforms, without sermonizing and without t using family problems as a pretext for creating conflict.” On the streets, a university stu- j dent said in an interview Reagan shouldn’t harp about Soviet ! abuses of human rights when hu- ' man-rights violations also occur j in the United States.And a report in the Soviet Communist party newspaper Pravda said Soviet citizens are ; concerned about homelessness, hunger and repression in the Uni- j ted States.MAY BACKFIRE A leading Soviet economist, Leonid Abalkin, head of the insti- j tute of economics of the Academy ; of Sciences, said Reagan’s efforts may backfire.He noted it’s been said Rus- ! sians never do anything under pressure and react like a porcupine under attack.“Force cannot do anything — | kindness can,” he said.dissidents, Jews and members of their families at the U.S.ambassa dor’s residence, Reagan said: “I came here hoping to do what 1 could to give you strength.“But I already know it is you who have strengthened me.You have given me a message to carry back.“While we press for human rights through diplomatic channels, you press with your very lives, day in, day out, year after year, risking your jobs, your homes, your all.” That Reagan was stepping into domestic matters on Soviet soil rankled Gorbachev aides before and after the events.and the Sov iet leader referred to it as he toasted Reagan at a state dinner.Gorbachev called for closer contacts with the United States but said: “This should be done without interfering in domestic affairs, without sermonizing or imposing one's views and ways, without turning family or personal problems into a pretext for confrontation between states.” Reagan said Gorbachev he will tell the next president of the United States that the search for common ground must continue.“Based on the achievements of the last few years, I will also tell him it is a search that can succeed,” the president said.Gorbachev said the two leaders’ main task is finding a way to reduce strategic nuclear weapons by 50 per cent and noted the “tremendous importance” of the recent agreement under which the two countries havesaid they will police the agreement for a Soviet with drawal from Afghanistan.“The whole world is watching,” he said.Police set up emission-inspection station By Peter Lowrey QUEBEC (CP) — Provincial police set up the first roadblock in Quebec Monday aimed at catching vehicle owners who disable their pollution-control equipment, an Environment Department official said Monday.The roadblock, in the Trois-Rivières area.95 kilometres west of Quebec City, will last one week.Special attention will be paid to 1986 and later model cars and trucks, Jean-A.Roy, acting deputy minister for the environment, said in an interview.Police have the power to levy fines of $100 to $1,000 against an individual and $500 to $20,000 against a corporation or a maximum one-month jail term for violations, he said The government hopes to stop up to 1,500 vehicles during the pilot project, and if a high percentage of them have disabled their antipollution equipment, the checks-tops could be expanded to include Montreal and Quebec City, Roy said after speaking to a conference on pollution.Bruce Walker, of the Montreal environmental group STOP Inc., said in an interview he was happy to see the enforcement of the regulations.A STOP document pointed out that the Ontario Environment Department already spot checks some 5,000 vehicles every year at emission-inspection stations, mostly in Toronto.The most common emission-control device is the catalytic converter, an apparatus connected to a vehicle’s exhaust system which reduces carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide and hydrocarbons, Roy said.DISCONNECT APPARATUS Vehicles which use the converters must also use unleaded gasoline, which costs more than leaded gasoline.Motorists disconnect the apparatus to save money.Roy said he thinks the problem is diminishing in Quebec.“It’s becoming less and less a problem because if you modify the catalytic converter now you risk nullifying the warranty and impairing the operation of the vehicle,” he said.He said the provincial regulations protecting the emmission-control devices have been in place for two years and that after sending out warnings to motorists, the government is ready to enforce the regulations Moving up the hill The Lennoxville-Ascot Historical and Museum society officially moved into its new home Monday, and no one is prouder than Wayne Hall, one of the group's own pioneers.Now that renovations are complete at the former Speid residence.Hall can hang up his paintbrush and enjoy the exhibits for a change.More on Page 2.Happy 100th birthday RI-CORD/GRANT SIMEON j \\ ¦ Gaspé mine workers say yes to offer MURDOCH VILLE, Que.(CP) — Prospects brightened for the future of this isolated mining town of 1,200 on Monday after unionized workers voted to accept a contract offer tabled by Mines Gaspe.Jean d'Arc Beaudm, president of the local chapter of the United Steelworkers of America, called the offer "quite acceptable." The average salary of $11.52 an hour rises immediately to $14.28 an hour, with another 50 cent an hour raise in the last two years of the three-year contract.Union members voted almost 70 per cent in favor of accepting the contract, said spokesman Adrien Arsenault.Arsenault said the contract also provides the 450 unionized workers with some first-time benefits, including a pension plan and a health insurance program.The company closed its copper mine in the Gaspe peninsula a year ago after fire raced through its most productive wing, killing one miner, trapping 50 others for hours and destroying expensive equipment .As a result, 1,000 people left the community, 700 kilometres northeast of Quebec City.Noranda Minerals Inc.of Toronto, owners of the company, kept 850 employees on the

conveyer belt.Gravel goes directly to trial HULL, Que.(CP) — In a surprise move, the preliminary hearing into fraud charges against Conservative MP Michel Gravel was halted Monday before it could begin as the Crown ordered the two-year-old case directly to trial.But it will still be months — pos sibly after the election some expect this fall — before the trial can begin.Superior Court Judge Louis-Philippe Landry said the case will be heard in the session that begins Oct.3, but defence lawyer Gabriel Lapointe said he may have motions to introduce at that time which could delay the matter further.The 48-year-old Montreal MP, first elected in the 1984 Tory sweep, faces 50 charges —10 counts of bribery, eight of breach of trust and 32 under various sections of the Criminal Code dealing with fraud against the government.The Crown alleges that he accepted, agreed to accept or sought to obtain cash, goods or services from 11 contractors between Dee.1, 1984, and Feb.1, 1986.There was no explanation for the decision by Quebec Attorney General Herbert Marx to proceed by means of a preferred indictment, which bypasses the preliminary hearing completely and orders the case directly to trial.Crown prosecutor Valmont Beaulieu would say only that he had met Gravel’s lawyers earlier this month and told them what evidence he intended to introduce.Gravel, grey haired and wea ring a steel-blue pinstriped suit with a pink puff in the jacket pocket, would not comment on the Crown’s decision but Lapointe “greatly disappointed” — charged that his client is being treated unfairly.“In the preparation of a defence it is quite important to know at preliminary hearing what the Crown witnesses are going to say (at trial),” Lapointe said.“In this particular case, because of the preferred indictment, we are deprived of this.” Lapointe said the move also de prives Gravel of the option of a trial before a judge alone.Under a preferred indictment the trial must be before a judge and jury, he said.Two former Conservative cabi net ministers, Roch LaSalle and Suzanne Blais-Grenier, were among 27 witnesses scheduled to appear at the preliminary hearing.The case has been put off since May 1986 while Gravel sought to have the charges quashed.His last attempt to do so ended in February when the Supreme Court of Canada refused permission to appeal several lower court rulings upholding the charges Deadline on accepting compensation is today Schefferville residents debate moving SCHEFFERVILLE, Que.(CP) — One day before the deadline imposed by the provincial government, about 70 per cent of the 200 whites in this boomtown gone bust haven’t decided whether to accept compensation offers to leave their homes.Once the deadline expires on Tuesday, the provincial Liberal government has said the white residents won’t receive any compensation for their property when the former mining town is turned over to the Montagnais In dian band.And while some residents say the offers they have received are so low as to be insulting, others say the provincial government wants them to move before it has even offered them a penny.“We’ve been treated like cattle,” said the last mayor of Schefferville, Lina Fortier, whose position ceased to exist in April.“We’ve either not been offered a thing or an amount that is minimal and totally illogical.” The provincial government announced the town would be closed down in May 1986 — 3-'/2 years after the main employer, Iron Ore.Co.of Canada, whose president at the time was current Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, shut its mine.The confusion since then over the town’s future has prompted opposition demands that Municipal Affairs Minister Andre Bour-beau be fired.Fortier said longtime residents have been offered as little as $1 and a reimbursement of one year’s municipal taxes, while other residents, who had lived in the town for only one year, have been given $10,000 tp move.At the same time, she said, some who accepted government offers almost a year ago have yet to receive any money.“It’s been more than a bit bizarre,” said Fortier, who has lived in Schefferville for 31 years.“It’s hard enough to leave here as it is and the government isn’t ma- king it any easier.” Fortier said about half the residents of the town, home to 5,000 people in its heyday, left before receiving any money from the government.Until a week ago, the Montagnais band was similarly frustrated with government inaction regarding the future of the 35-year-old mining community, once described as “a southern suburb dropped into a northern bush.” HARD BARGAINING Bernard Cleary, chief negotiator for the Montagnais, said: “It was dificult to get them (provincial and federal government officials) sitting down together."Negotiations were like a big game of ping-pong.” Only on May 24, after the Indian band threatened a protest march to Ottawa from Schefferville, was a deal worked out where most of the town would become part of the reserve.A small section is to be set aside for whatever whites wished to stay. 2—The RECORD—Tuesday, May 31, 198# The Townships Sccortl Agency to hold hearings on local railway line abandonment By Melanie Gruer SHERBROOKE — The National Transportation Agency 'NTA) will hold public hearings in Victoria-ville June 14 on the proposed abandonment of Canadian National Railway’s line from Richmond to Charny.Guy Chartrand, president of the transportaion lobby group Transport 2000, says unless people in the affected areas protest, the line will be cut.Last October CN asked the Canadian Transport Commission (since replaced by the NTA) for permission to abandon its rail line.The line begins in Richmond, goes through Danville, Victoriaville, Princeville, Plessissville and ends in Charny.Closing the line is part of CN’s plant to abandon one third of its less-used lines across Canada over the next five years.The railway company contends not enough cars used the line to make it feasible.CN says companies like the JM asbestos mine in Asbestos are using trucks instead of the train to transport freight.But Chartrand says the decline of the line was purposely done by not marketing the business.The asbestos mine is not the root of the problem.He says if CN is allowed to abandon the line, it will be abandoning public service.“CN did everything they could to discourage the use of it.Then they say they’re losing money and they have to close the line.It’s a crown corporation and they are there to give a service to the public.If they are losing money, the government can subsidize them.” According to figures from CN obtained by Chartrand, in 1986 CN lost $913,651 on the Richmond-Charny line because of the reduced traffic.Chartrand says that means CN lost $1670 per car that year.Chartrand says if it is abandoned, there will only be one operational CN line left in that sector of the Townships — the line that runs from Montreal through Drum-mondville to Quebec City.“For that whole part of the Eastern Townships will have no more rail service.There will be only trucks to transport freight and I know many businesses w'on’t build there if there is no railway line.” “I don’t know why in 1988 CN is acting like that.I think it’s a disgrace.It’s a public service and that’s why we are paying taxes,” he said.MNA for Richmond Yvon Val- lieres has already submitted a brief to the NTA.Mayors in Danville and Richmond have also protested the proposed abandonment.NO EASY SHIPPING ROUTE Chartrand says he’s talked to the mayor in Plessissville who is very upset about CN’s plans, and the industrial commissioner in Plessissville is getting a brief together to oppose the cut.Chartrand says he’s also talked to maple sugar producers in the area who will not be able to ship their freight as easily if the Rich-mond-Charny line is cut.“I hope the line will be saved.I hope the MPs, MNAs, mayors and businessmen will go and defend the line because a line abandonment would be very hard on businesses in the area,” he said.Chartrand himself is hoping to attend the hearings _____ The hearings will be held at the Salle du Centennaire of the Société d'agriculture.12 Arena St.in Victoriaville on Tuesday.June 14 at 10 a m.Briefs which are to be presented must be registered at least 30 minutes before the hearings begin.The Richmond-Charny line is one of the oldest railway lines as it was opened on Nov.27,1854 by the Quebec-Richmond Railway-Company.Association want tips included on patron’s bills SHERBROOKE years ago.She

WILSON of Knowlton Irene W’ilson passed aw ay coura geously at the Brome-Missisquoi Perkins Hospital on May 2 after a long and inspirational battle against ALS.more commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease.Born on June 21, 1920 in Coati-cook.Irene was the 13th of 14 chil dren produced by Arthur and Josephine (Platt) Talbot On February 24, 1938 she was married in Knowlton to Harold Wilson The couple were concerned when the marriage yielded no children in the first seven years, but they need not have worried.The family eventually included eight girls - Joan (Mrs.W’ayne Goyette); Jean (Mrs.Cyril Soule); Ruth (Mrs.Earl Talbot); Brenda (Mrs.Larry Birch); Bonita; Rosemary (Mrs.Terry Scott); Sandra and Donna.Irene’s husband predeceased her in 1979.A brother, Roland, also predeceased her.She is survived by a brother, Wilbur, and two sisters, Alma Halifax and Bertha Bishop.A memorial service for Irene was held at the Knowlton United Church on May 5, with Reverend Peter Hartgerink officiating.While a loving mother and grandmother of 16 is gone, the me mories will always be with those she so deeply touched She will be remembered for her compassion and her eagerness to help those around her, whether it was by donating blood for 25 years or sheltering a homeless kitten.When money needed to be raised for the Terry Fox cancer fund, there she was, spending hours at a table she set up outside her home, collecting donations.Many will fondly recall Irene’s weakness for garage sales, bingos and Brome Fair.And they will remember her skills at the bowling alley and on the softball field, where she played into her 60s She rooted fervently for the un derdog in life, and to the last she was a staunch defender of the Expos.Even when strickened by a drea ded disease she refused to capitulate, often clenching her fists in a sign of determination.She taught all of us how to live — and die — with dignity.That will enable her memory to live on.WAY’S MILLS — Saturday morning, May

Celtics tie up Pistons in more ways than one PONTIAC.Mich.(API — Dennis Johnson broke a tie by hitting one of two free throws with eight seconds left and the Boston Celtics evened the NBA Eastern Conference finals at 2-2 with a 79-78 victory over the Detroit Pistons on Monday.The winning free throw was set up when Adrian Dantley, attemp ting an alley-oop pass, threw the inbounds pass into the basket, gi ving Boston possession with 50 seconds left.Johnson then missed a shot that Kevin McHale rebounded with 26 seconds remaining.After a ti meout, Isiah Thomas fouled John son in the open court, and he made his second shot after missing the first.Joe Dumars, the hero of Game 3 with 29 points, was short on a 12-foot jumper just before the buzzer, and Robert Parish rebounded the miss, giving the Celtics back the coveted homecourt advantage they lost in Game 1.Games 5 and 6 are scheduled for Wednesday night at Boston Garden, and Friday night at the Silver dome.The seventh game, if necessary, would be in Boston on Sunday.Boston, winners of 16 NBA titles, is seeking its fifth straight trip to the championship series.The Pistons have never been to the final series in 31 years in Detroit, although the franchise made it twice when it w as located in Fort Wayne.Ind.Bill Laimbeer led all scorers with 29 points for Detroit, while Larry Bird had 20, Johnson 18 and McHale 15 for the Celtics.Boston held Det roit to 16 points in the first 19:15 of the game, but led only IS M with 8 23 left in the first half.Danny Ainge then hit three three pointers and Johnson one in the next 5:20, leading a 19-9 spurt that gave the Celtics a 37-23 lead with 3:13 remaining.The Pistons finally picked up the scoring pace after that, cutting the deficit to 46-36 at halftime.Detroit opened the second half with a 17-6 run Thomas, with six points during the spurt, finished it with a steal and layup, giving the Pistons a 53-52 edge with 6:13 left in the period.Detroit scored the last eight points of the third quarter, to lead 68 60 going into the final 12 minutes.Teenager on top of world MONTREAL (CP) — Allison Higson was too happy for long explanations of her stunning world record in the 200-metre breaststroke.“I don’t know, it hasn’t hit me yet, I’m so happy,” said the smi ling Higson, whose two minute 27.27-second swim at the Cana dian Olympic swimming trials broke East German Silke Horner’s world mark of 2:27.40 set at the world championships in Madrid on Aug.18, 1986.The 15-year-old had been training to break Horner’s record at the trials and said she knew she could do it.“I wanted to set a world re cord,” she said.“I wanted to be No.1 going into the Olympics.“My goal is to set a world record and win the gold medal.” The Brampton, Ont, native, who shattered virtually every age-group record in her rise to world class, joins Victor Davis of Pointe Claire, Que., in giving Canada world records in both the men’s and women’s 200-metre breaststroke.Davis swims the 200 metre breaststroke Tuesday and will li kely be motivated by Higson’s performance to take a crack at his 1984 world mark of 2:13.34, set in winning the gold medal at the Los Angeles Olympics.SHOOTS HIGH She said at the Summer Games in Seoul, South Korea, in Septem her, she wants to better her mark by up to two seconds.Higson will go for another record in the 100-metre breaststroke on Wednesday, the final day of the five-day trials to select Canada’s team for Seoul.Twenty swimmers qualified for the Olympic team in the first two days of the trials, eight for the freestyle relay teams.Higson’s performance overshadowed a Canadian record in the men’s 100-metre butterfly by Tom Ponting of Calgary.Punting posted 53.77 seconds, beating his own 1985 mark of 53.93 but still well short of the world record of 52.84 held by Pablo Morales of the United States.Ponting and Vlastimil Cerny of Toronto, who swam 54.74, qualified for the team.Ponting served notice he will be a medal contender with the fourth best time in the world this year.BEAT STANDARD The closest race of the day was the men’s 200-metre backstroke, won in 2:01.27 — the third best time this year — by Sean Murphy of Toronto.Mark Tewksbury of Calgary also made the team in 2:02.21.Gary Anderson of Toronto, at 2:02.56, and Kevin Draxin ger of Vancouver, at 2:03.05, also beat the standard but countries may enter two swimmers per event at the Olympics.Jane Kerr of Toronto qualified in winning the women’s 100 metre freestyle in 56.96 on Satur day and then got the sole berth in the 200-metre freestyle on Sunday with a 2:01.54.I»ri Melien of Whitby, Ont., got the lone berth in the women’s 100-metre backstroke in 1:03.84 and Jon Kelly of Victoria was alone in qualifying for the men s 400-metre individual medley — retired former world record holder Alex Baumann's event — in 4:25.37.Swimmers get a second chance in August at the national championships in Toronto to take any spots left vacant after the trials.TILDEM CAR RENTAL 4 MOVING TRUCK* WEEKEND SPECIALS CHRYSLER VEHICLES VAi fSTRie *?4141 A new well • fast - drilled in one day • economical • free estimate • guaranteed
