Lucille Auger, a spokesman for the nurses federation, told a news conference on Monday night that the strike would begin at approximately 400 institutions across Quebec at 8 a.m.on Tuesday morning.Michel Cléroux.spokesman for the Quebec Hospital Association, said that hospitals had begun reviewing patients' health and stability in an effort to cut down bed-occupancy from the usual 90 per cent to 60 per cent by Tuesday.“Those patients who can be sent home without ill effect to their health are being invited to leave on a temporary basis." Cléroux said."Only emergency cases will be admitted to hospital.” Nurses have promised to provide full services in intensive care and emergency units, but will cut back to 30 per cent in other areas Lavallee said Monday night that the nurses’ federation was aware it was calling an illegal strike."We are conscious of the circumstances in which this strike is taking place,” she said.The Quebec government had offered Monday to appoint a special mediator with the authority to deal with monetary issues — the main stumbling block in the dis pute with the nurses.But Treasury Board president.Daniel Johnson, said the offer was conditional on the nurses calling off the illegal strike.Though he couldn't offer the nurses more money in the first year of their contract.Johnson said he w'as willing to “rearrange" the government's last money offer which the nurses rejected last July.Johnson also said the offer of a 21-per-cent salary hike over three years would make Quebec's nurses the highest paid in Canada by January 1991 Johnson said that nurses who go on strike could face stiff penalties including loss of pay, fines of up to $100 a day and loss of seniority.Starting salary for a hospital nurse w orking a 36.25-hour week is $24.325.peaking at $33,139 after 12 years service.RECORD/CHARLES BURY •.: __________ To the Scoti '¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ 'U.i* VU Muriel MacDonald Mayhew and

(CP) - Track’s top policy-making body unanimously approved a proposal Monday that would strip Canadian sprinter Ben Johnson of his 100-metre world record because he has admitted using banned anabolic steroids.The resolution from a closed meeting of 24-member council of the International Amateur Athletic Federation calls for world records to be taken away from any athlete who admits under oath, or in a signed statement, to being involved in illegal doping.The recommendation will be sent to the 182-country IAAF congress — the world governing body of track and field — Tuesday or Wednesday for a vote.Johnson’s 9.83-second record was set at the world track and field championships in Rome in August 1987.He has since admitted to a federal inquiry in Toronto that he was on a steroid program at the time.If the council recommendation is adopted, Johnson’s arch-rival, Carl Lewis of the U.S., will hold the world record at 9.92 seconds, set when he finished second to Johnson at the 1988 Seoul Olympics.Johnson was subsequently stripped of his gold medal and his 9.79-second time after testing positive for steroids.Johnson now is serving a two-year suspension from international competition that expires a year from now.The 27-year-old sprinter also holds the world indoor 50- and 60-metre records, which would also be struck from the books should the IAAF congress vote to accept the council’s recommendation.Johnson also holds a world indoor best over 50 yards, but the IAAF does not consider that distance for a world record.Canadian representatives in Spain said they would defend Johnson in debate on the council resolution, while U.S.representatives said they were fighting for Lewis.“Of course, we will do this for Carl,’’ said Frank Greenberg, president of the governing track body of the United States.“We are fighting for the guy.We ll fight to the max.” Canada’s representatives at the meeting — Paul Dupré, president of the Canadian Track and Field Association, and Jean-Guy Ouellette, chairman of the board of CTFA — are not members of the IAAF council.But they are members of the congress that will vote on the recommendation.Cecil Smith, executive director of the Ontario Track and Field Federation, said the Canadian delegation would defend Johnson.Dupre and Ouellette said in interviews they agree with the idea of stripping admitted steroid users of records, but not with the six-year retroactivity of the proposal.Both said they had started lobbying delegates to vote against the recommendation.Campaigning de Klerk vows to end discrimination Bullets greet anti-apartheid protestors From AP-AFP-Reuters | JOHANNESBURG (CP) —South African police used tear gas, bul-; lets and batons Monday to disperse ^démonstrations against national 'elections that exclude blacks, and arrested Anglican Archbishop De-Ismond Tutu, the Rev.Allan Boesak, other black leaders and journalists.; The arrests came after the lading president, F.W.de Klerk, said in his final campaign speech that racial discrimination must end ; Clashes between anti-apartheid jprotesters and police were re-iported at banned gatherings in Durban and Cape Town.A Cape Town university announced it would close this week during two days of anti-apartheid protests.In Cape Town, police pointed an armored truck at the door of the Central Mission Methodist Church where people had gathered to hold an anti-election rally.Tutu, the Anglican Archbishop of Cape Town, and Boesak, the president of the World Alliance of Reformed Churches, were arrested at the church when they refused police orders to leave, according to witnesses.“Tutu approached the side of the church, where an armored police car had driven up to block the door.They carted him off immediately," one witness said.Police arrested journalists covering the events and were seen beating people, including a teenage boy on his way to the church.Boesak’s wife also confirmed her husband’s arrest.In Durban, about 2,500 students at the multiracial University of Natal defied a police ban on an anti-election rally and gathered to protest Wednesday’s parliamentary elections, which exclude blacks from either seeking office or voting.Police arrested 18 people after firing on the crowd with tear gas and bullets, witnesses said.Bourassa: Independence strategy too vague: Premier wants detailed PQ plan By Peter Lowrey ALMA (CP) — Premier Robert Bourassa threw down the gauntlet Monday, demanding Parti Québécois leader Jacques Parizeau explain in detail his plans for an independent Quebec.Speaking to 800 Liberals in this heartland of PQ support 200 kilometres north of Quebec City, a fired up Bourassa — in his strongest language yet — ridiculed what he called his rival’s vague program for a series of mini-referendums leading to final indepedence.The PQ platform calls for referendums on whether Quebec I»* | ISf**"11 ’ Q Q should try tonegotiate with Ottawa * ' for total control over regional de-velopment, family policy, manpower training and language.At a future date, the PQ says it would summit a constitution for an independent Quebec to the voters.“If he’s going to go before the population and say here’s my strategy for independence, he’s got to explain.to justify,” Bourassa said, waving his arms for emphasis.The premier, wrapping up a blitzkreig 2,500-kilometre four-day campaign swing through eight eastern ridings, said the PQ isn’t saying whether it would press Ottawa for an administrative or constitutional surrender of powers.The former set of powers could easily be cancelled by future federal governments and the latter requires the support of seven provinces with 50 per cent of the population, Bourassa said.“Does he seriously believe seven provinces are going to say: ‘Yes Liberals the message that his government is the best economic manager the province can hope for, a team that has lowered personal income taxes and the deficit over the past four years.Bourassa aide Ronald Poupart said the premier was not snubbing the riding, which he said had not requested any funding for which the premier could announce approval.The Lac-St-Jean riding was won by 4,200 votes in the 1985 election by Jacques Brassard, a burly Parti Québécois firebrand who spent the last three weeks of the spring session taking the government apart over a land rezoning controversy.Brassard has represented the riding since 1976.The riding also voted 17,600 to 13,000 in the 1980 referendum in favor of the PQ’s plan to seek a type of independence.But some said local voters are Robert Bourassa.‘He's got to explain.to justify’ tiring of their Opposition mem bers.Pierre Néron, a bus driver who was enjoying the late summer sun at the zoo, said in an interview he thinks that although Brassard worked hard, voters now want to be represented by a government member.“These things go in waves and I think the PQ wave is over,” he said.Réal St-Onge, an advertising salesman living in the neighboring Chicoutimi riding, thought that “people are tired of being represented by an Opposition member.It’s been eight years and a government member has more clout.” Mr.Parizeau, we’ll help you on your way toward the separation of Quebec’,” Bourassa said.The challenge to the PQ had special meaning in this town of 26,000 in the heart of the Lac-St-Jean riding where a majority — 17,600 versus 13,000 — voted in favor of negotiating some type of independence for Quebec in the 1980 referendum.The referendum was defeated with 60 per cent of Québécois voting against independence.As he ridiculed the PQ in Alma, Bourassa also transformed himself from Santa Claus to Scrooge at the same time.After spending the Labour Day weekend giving out almost $20 million in promises during a swing through eastern Quebec, Bourassa gave Alma virtually nothing.The veteran politican, seeking a second mandate from the province’s 4.8 million voters on Sept.25, even had a $5-miliion grant to announce for the St-Félicien zoo in the neighboring Roberval riding, represented by a Liberal cabinet minister.The grinning premier made the announcement after carefully feeding an apple to a 225-kilogram black bear.Almost all the ridings that received long-promised funds over the weekend — for everything from cancer clinics to fishing boats — are represented by Liberals, prompting allegations that the premier was buying voters with their own money.“A government always has a more sympathetic ear for its own members.It’s realistic,” Bourassa told reporters in the impoverished Gaspé community of Cap Chat on Saturday, after he announced to 300 cheering Liberals that the government will give logging rights to a local entrepreneur so that the town’s only sawmill, destroyed in a 1975 fire, can be rebuilt.DENIES BIAS Bourassa denied that he was playing Father Christmas only to ridings represented by Liberal members, pointing to a $1.1-billion aluminum smelter a foreign consortium begins building today in a PQ-controlled riding in Sept-Iles.But when the relaxed Liberal chief mounted the stage Monday afternoon in this mill town of 26.000 to his theme song Flashdance, he had no special announcements to make Instead he pounded home to 800 Liberals play catch-up with election ’89 8-ball By Donald McKenzie QUEBEC (CP) — Premier Robert Bourassa was bang on last December when he said the environment would play a major role in the next provincial election.But, midway through the campaign, Bourassa’s problem is that he’s been behind the environmental 8-ball since he announced the Sept.25 election date.The lanky premier has had to fend off constant accusations from the Opposition Parti Québécois that his government has botched two events which have emerged to make “environment” THE campaign buzzword.First, the PQ took the Liberals to task for the government’s indecisiveness on the fate of PCB waste from a fire in St-Basile-le-Grand, in August 1988.After much ado, and amid public protest from concerned residents, the PCBs were recently transported to a Hydro-Quebec storage site about 500 kilometres northeast of Quebec City.To compound Bourassa’s woes, PQ Leader Jacques Parizeau then accused the Environment Department of “vast bungling” after soil samples showed lead contamination of residential land in St-Jean, about 30 kilometres southeast of Montreal.Parizeau charged that the Liberals had been aware of the danger for more than two years without imposing sanctions against the company that owns the land.SOMETHING MISSING’ But not all observers give Parizeau full marks for his political performance.“With time, it has become clear that something is missing (from the PQ),” Alain Dubuc, lead editorialist with Montreal La Presse, wrote recently.“While the Opposition’s role is to criticize, a party which aspires to power must make the transition and put forth its own solutions.“In the debate on the environment.the PQ hasn’t.” Opinion polls suggest, however, that the separatist PQ has carved into the Liberals’ lead since the campaign began.In late June, a poll indicated the Liberals had 53 per cent of the popular vote; the PQ, 35 per cent.But a survey conducted Aug.25-29 — during the events surrounding the PCB controversy but before news broke of the lead contamination — gives the Liberals 48 per cent and the PQ 38 per cent.PQ troops, although exultant with the results, realize that the nitty-gritty of the campaign begins after Labor Day, when the powerful Liberal machine is expected to step up a few gears and hope the public forgets about PCBs and lead.Bourassa, who has admitted he is considering sweeping changes to the Environment Department, has concentrated on vaunting his government's economic performance and warning Quebecers about the “political and economic instability” they’d face with a PQ government.FAVORITE PLOY One of the premier’s favorite ploys since he called the election Aug, 9 has been to officially “com firm” multimiilion-dollar investments, usually involving aluminum smelters, months after initially announcing them.Parizeau, meanwhile, has been reluctant to put a dollar figure on PQ promises to improve Quebec roads, help the province’s farmers and create 1,000 new places in senior citizens’ homes.The PQ leader, who appears to be in much better physical shape than last year, did get off the fence, however, when he promised that a PQ government would give cultural groups at least $80 million extra a year to increase their share of the provincial budget to one per cent.But Paul-André Comeau, editor of Montreal’s Le Devoir, has urged both major parties to speak out on other key topics, including the declining birthrate, unemployment, economic development and the province’s constitutional future.During his low-key campaign speeches, Parizeau has so far played down a plank in the PQ program that states a vote for the party is a vote for independence.! fc-The RECORD—Tuesday, September 5.1989 The Townships Hecord The Townships Festival of friends and agriculture showcase Brome Fair surpasses other years as visitors enjoy weekend extravaganza By Claudia Villemaire BROME — As the dust settled on the final day of Brome County’s 133rd exhibition, gates closed on the last of over 40,000 visitors — another record year ends for this outstanding county fair.“This fair is an example of consistent success, and it’s due, in very alrge part, to the faithful volunteers who support it,” said visiting Deputy Minister of Agriculture, John Mazenkowski.“I congratulated every one who exhibited, participated in some way and especially the team who work so hard every year Their success is yours,” Mazenkowski added Monday afternoon.The crowning day was almost anti-climactic as record attand- ance streamed through the gates all weekend, filling every corner that was not already bursting with exhibits or concessions of one kind or another.SIMILAR TO FLOOD Friday evening, the only rainy evening, teams of horses pulled competitively under conditions similar to a flood.But despite the deluge of rain and wind, teamsters turned out and the fair seemed to take root in the ‘esprit de corps’ kindled by the men and their horses.Saturday and Sunday country shows kept grandstand patrons in their seats despite almost freezing weather, and afternoon races saw track records fall by the wayside.It was a weekend filled to the brim with out-of-the-ordinary happenings.Folks jammed the grandstand and lined the track as the deputy minister congratulated Doug Johnson personally for his 61st year as a showman at Brome.Edgar Stracchino, 32-veteran of the Eastern Townships Pipe Band, chose Brome Fair as his final parade before retiring from active performing.One young Charolais decided it was all too much and tried valiantly by leaps and bounds to head for parts unknown during the cattle parade on Monday.And Terry Sumsion called spectators at his excellent country music show to come out onto the track and dance up a storm — which is exactly what they did.DIFFERENT LIGHT There were record breakers in almost every department.Over one hundred head of Herefords Sj turned out for the mark of excell-s ence show, entries in most classes 5 surpassed last year’s and they > even brought out pulling-dogs in a 5 competition that put a different < light entirely on man’s best friend, y Heavy horses won the crowds | with their numbers, quality and f turn-out, also eclipsing previous years.Meanwhile, Scottish Highlander cattle, on display along with Tarentaise from France and Belted Galloway, were a favorite stopping place.These exotic breeds were lucky to get home with any hair left as folks approached cautiously and soon were seen scratching and petting these docile, wooly stars.A favorite corner was the Townsend Petting Zoo where llamas, goats, tufted chickens, ponies, rabbits and pigs placidly took all the traffic through their enclosure in stride, while they kept a sharp eye for hand-outs.Momma pig and her litter of nine piglets was another busy corner in the sheep barn and the stream of curious through the stable areas seemed unending.STEAM ENGINES There were steam engines and antique cars, modern farm equipment and old-fashioned buggies and food by the tonne.Long dogs (12 inchers) and short dogs and pogos too.Fresh fruit, dunkin’ donuts and exotic coffee and even fresh, homemade jams and jellies.Candy makers were just across a green space from the bratwurst booth with the inevitable frites in various forms available in every corner along with popcorn and the usual midway fare.There were 19 cantines vying for unendingly hungry fair visitors’ dollar, so variety wasn’t in short supply.It was a festival of friends and an agriculture showcase.The fair proved beyond a doubt that family farms are very much in vogue with up to four generations on hand with their animal families.Tiny babies (there was a set of wee twins, three weeks old) slept in One young participant.‘Are you sure this is the right parade?’ strollers while all hands and the cook turned out to trim, clip and put the finishing touches on their exhibit — and the final result was a fair to beat all fairs.Fair president Bob Douglas climbed into a Hell Drivers vehicle on the last day, to be whisked up and down the track, over the ramps and roaring up to the rail in a shower of dust and gravel.Saying later, “Oh, yes, sure, I’d go again.It was great fun.” And that pretty well summed up his comments about the fair.«»*»*-*! ¦ ~ né ?\-î%> Winning team of Willie Delaney and his Belgians — on parade Monday at the Brome Fair — a champion teamster and his champion steeds.Neighbors complain about Brill Road site West Bolton: Council wants new look for auto-body yard By Gil Smith WEST BOLTON — The fine line between individual rights and a municipality's environmental standards is becoming the focus of sharp attention here.Council has sent notices to Bob Hume, 46, of Brill Road, advising him to do something about the large number of auto and truck bodies on and around his premises.But Hume has been slow to comply with council’s requests, and a deadline may have to be set to get the matter finalized.However, council doesn’t appear to be entirely in agreement on how best to proceed in getting Hume to move his stock of vehicles out of public sight.“He’s done some clean up," Councillor Bob Quilliams said at a recent town meeting.“Moved about 30 per cent of the vehicles.Shown some goodwill.I'm for letting the matter slide till a later date.” TIME LIMIT Lome Argue disagreed.“He’s made haphazard efforts in the past involving cleaning up operations,” he said “We should do something to ensure that he makes satisfactory progress.Give him a time limit to do it in.” Hume — and the many old and partly-dismantled vehicles he keeps about his property — have been the subject of council discussions and neighborhood complaints for some time.Until recently, Hume had ignored letters sent to him by the municipality requesting that he move surplus vehicles away from the public road, and put up a concealing fence.Copies of the bylaws regarding the maintaining of a scrapyard were also said to have been sent to Hume, with no apparent effect.CONFUSION But there’s some confusion as to whether he's operating a scrapyard mainly involving old auto and truck bodies at the Brill Road location, engaging in garage repair work, or simply accumulating vehicles.Hume himself insists he doesn't have a business there.However he’s apparently a partner in a service station on Route 243 outside Knowlton.The property where the vehicles are stored apparently covers slightly more than a hectare of land — 181 metres along Brill Road, and 76 metres deep.Rules governing the operation of scrapyards or similar-type businesses require that they be set back 15» metres from the road.Council feels that Hume is also in violation of environmental standards.ROOM FOR MORE “Each year Mr.Hume does a lit tie in clearing out some of the vehi des he has stored there." Council lor Stan Horne noted.“But that just makes room to move more in.He has co-operated to some extent, but should be given a deadline.We should also ask for a progress report.Get a fixed date when the cars and trucks will be moved behind a fence.” Councillor René Hébert didn't agree with the deadline concept.“You can attract more flies with honey.” he told council."I think we should send a letter saying ‘Thank you very much for what you’ve done.But what’s next?”’ Contacted by phone for his version of the matter, Hume declared : “I have no business, and I don’t want to discuss anything with you!" He then hung up.NO TUNNELS ALLOWED In other matters: •Even with increased land areas around their properties, as spelled out in the bylaws, neighbors manage to get too close together.Barry Wexler.putting up a house off Paramount Road, didn’t want the house sitting on a rock, so he located it to one side of the rock.That put hi m too close to the sideline.Now he must purchase 25 feet from his neighbor to restore the balance.But if the neighbor sells the 25 feet, he'll probably fall below the minimum lot requirement himself.•On the Glen Brown Estate on Brown Road, somebody wants to erect a second house and connect it to the existing one by a tunnel.Mayor Fred Lahue says tunnelling between properties is out.and no permit to dig a tunnel will be granted.•The mayor and council heaved a collective sigh of relief when their efforts were successful in shifting responsibility for the fire claims against the Rzyzora family to the Town of Brome Lake.T.B.L.agreed that the grass fire for which West Bolton had been bil- led $888, actually started in a section of field located within their own municipal borders.Brome Lake will therefore handle the matter, getting West Bolton off the hook.rwiimi BOTH (ISAM i?t * * For civil rights: Although racist 'skinheads' never got their Labor Day party off the ground in North Hatley, about 50 demonstrators marched through the streets of Sherbrooke anyway Saturday, to repeat the message that racist groups are not welcome in the Townships.For more than an hour members of the Sherbrooke RECORD/ANN McLAUOHLIN Civil Liberties Union and the B’Nai Brith of Canada League for Human Rights walked from Camirand Park to the King Street courthouse and back.Flanked by a police escort, the group peacefully voiced their mutual committment to human rights for all Quebecers, chanting slogans for equal rights, and the protection and dignity of all minorities.#1____ftgl ¦rPCDmil Randy Klnnaar, Publisher .569-9511 Charfat Bury, Editor.569-6345 Uoyd Q.Schalb, Advertising Manager.569-9525 Richard Lasaard, Production Manager.569-9931 Mark Gulllatte, Press Superintendent .569-9931 Guy Renaud, Graphics.569-4856 Franclna Thibault, Composition.569-9931 CIRCULATION DEPT.819-569-9528 KNOWLTON OFF.: 514-243-0088 FAX: (819) 569-3945 Subscriptions by Carrier: weekly: $1.80 Subscriptions by Mail: Canada: 1 year- $74.00 6 months- $44.00 3 months- $30.60 1 month- $15.00 U.S.& Foreign: 1 year- - $151.00 6 months- $92.00 3 months- $62.00 1 month- $32.00 Established February 9, 1897, Incorporating the Sherbrooke Gazette (est.1837) and the Sherbrooke Examiner (est.1879).Published Monday to Friday by The Record Division, Groupe Québécor Inc.Offices and plant located at 2850 Delorme Street, Sherbrooke, Quebec, J1K1A1.Second class registration number 1064.Member of Canadian Press Member of the Audit Bureau of Circulation Back copies of The Record are available at the following prices: Copies ordered within a month of publications: 60c per copy.Copies ordered more than a month after publication: $1.10 per copy.Weather Sunny periods with a high of 24.Wednesday, sunny skies with a tew cloudy periods, the low 10, the high 24.SI N\> ( H \KI I» Bl KY ( on#f SAGITTARIUS SOUTHERN HORIZON Reviewing the Summer Triangle Ideally situated high above the southern horizon at map time in September (about 10:30 p.m.around mid month, an hour later at ihe beginning of the month, and an hour earlier at the end), the Summer Triangle is the most striking feature of the season.In a twilight sky only the stars marking the angles of this large right-angled triangle can be seen; first brilliant Vega, next Altair, and then Deneb.As the sky darkens, fainter stars in the Triangle’s three constellations gradually appear.Vega is the lucida of tiny Lyra which represents the magic harp of Orpheus.Lyra’s other stars form a tiny triangle (Vega is at one angle) that is joined to a little parallelogram.Altair, flanked on one side by Alshain and on the other by Tarazed, is the special feature of Aquila, the Eagle.Legend relates that Aquila bore Ganymede, cup bearer to the gods, aloft to his place in the heavens.Deneb marks the tail of Cygnus, the Swan.One of the loveliest constellations, it is often called "the Northern Cross" because of its cross-shaped outline.Cygnus is said to represent Orpheus who was placed among the stars to be near his beloved harp (Lyra).Other brilliant stars of the season are near the horizons now: Capella in the northeast, Fomalhaut in the southeast.ruddy-hued Antares in the southwest, and the brightest star in the surnvner sky, golden-coloured Aretur-us, almost due west.With Binoculors Situated just outside the eastern ami of the Summer Triangle, lovely little Delphinus can be enjoyed withoui optical aid; however, binoculars are needed to see tiny arrow-shaped Sagitta.Too faint to be shown on the map, the Arrow (Sagitta) lies inside the Triangle, just above Altair.II the sky is very dark and clear - a country site is a must - scan the Milky Way as it sweeps from the northeastern to the southwestern honzon.It is particularly rewarding between Cygnus and Sagittarius.Double stars are interesting too.Begin with Mizar, at the bend in the handle of the Big Dipper (low in the northwest), and compare it to the fainter double >tar jusl above \ cga A leisurely search will reveal other doubles, as well as multiple star sys terns and a class of object called siar clusters One of the latter is shown as Cl on the map.Tiny Sagitta’s ‘'arrow" shape is not its only feature It boasts two faint star clusters, the brighter one is called "the Coathanger."
