attempts to remove Russian bishop Judge to decide today if 91 year old will stay in Mansonville By Maurice Crossfield A judge will decide today if a 91-year-old Russian Orthodox Bishop staying in a Mansonville monastery will be allowed to remain there or be taken back to New York for psychiatric evaluation.“If it wasn’t for the Sûreté du Quebec, they would have kidnapped him to the United States,” said Dr.Michael Clark, a physician who was visiting Bishop Vitaly Oustinow at the remote monastery.“Three of them physically forced him into their car.” According to Clark and monks living at the monastery near the U.S.border, a group of men, including Bishop Michel Dunskoff, arrived Thursday morning.They pushed past the others there and removed Oustinow, putting him into a stretch limousine.“It’s not just unchristian, it’s inhuman,” a monk told The Record.“This is going to kill him.” Peter Paganuzzi, a supporter of Bishop Oustinow, called the police, who in turn blocked the driveway of the monastery.While Bishop Oustinow waited in the Cadillac for nearly three hours, SQ officers negotiated with both sides in the case.In the end Oustinow was allowed to remain at the monastery under the guard of two SQ patrollers and a priest from the New York faction, pending the outcome of a court hearing Thursday afternoon.That hearing was eventually put off until Friday morning.Status Quo “It is the status quo for now.Bishop Vitaly (Oustinow) will stay there, as will a priest from the opposing side,” Paganuzzi said.“We know him and he is welcome to stay.” Oustinow has spent the last 60 years as a Bishop, escaping from Russia as a child during the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917.See Bishop, Page 4 ¦ .' v1?i : Û ; mt ¦¦¦ ’¦ mm MAURICE CROSSFIELD Bishop Vitaly

Bromptonville trucking division PERKY BEATON/SPEOAL Truckers affected by the closure of the Bromptonville division are left to contemplate their future.Buyouts offered to drivers awaiting union accreditation By Rita Legault Sherbrooke Truckers for the Kruger paper mill in Bromptonville, who were summoned to a meeting with management Thursday morning, were scarcely surprised to learn the company had closed its trucking division.In a brief meeting with Trucking Division manager Robert Kirkland, longtime drivers were told that Kruger was abandoning its private fleet effective immediately, as truckers were given appointments to clean out their vehicles.“They told us to show up at a specific time, and we had half-an-hour, no more, to clean out our trucks,” said one driver.The truckers were told not to go inside.News of the shutdown came a few days after drivers, who were awaiting union accreditation, were informed the company was dismantling its trucking division.The truckers were told that if, and only if, they dumped the union they would be offered buy-outs and jobs with the public carrier which would get the contract to haul paper for the mill.Shortly after Thursday morning’s 20-minute meeting with management, which some drivers dubiously dubbed “short and sweet”, the company issued a release announcing the trucking division had ceased operations.The statement said Kruger was going “back to the basics”, and that the truckers’ workload has been handed to public carriers.The company assured clients the transfer would not result in any delays in deliveries.“We must remain competitive in today’s economy,” Kirkland said in the release.“To do so, we must cease our trucking activities, which have been operating at a deficit for several years, and we must concentrate on our first mission, that of pulp and paper.” Meanwhile, the 40 employees affected by the shutdown, were given buy-out offers and information about what will happen with their company pensions.See Kruger, Page 5 page 2 Friday, November 23, 2001 RECORD McLellan signs on the dotted line despite criticism loto-québec 649 Draw 2001-11-21 02 08 12 18 24 35 BONUS

showers.Low near 2.High near 5.Probability of precipitation 60 per cent Every concession screamed reluctance, but she had to do it.Faced with a barrage of criticism that condemned her anti-terrorist legislation with a single, unwavering voice inside her party and beyond, Justice Minister Anne McLellan fenced in her signature bill with time limits and safeguards against abuse of power and process.The former Alberta law school professor sniffed that, in her legal opinion, every amendment was non-essential and perhaps excessively cautious in the campaign against terrorism in Canada.But what the hell - she’d pledged to listen and suggested she cared enough to act so, by in large, McLellan moved to correct the worst flaws many others spotted in the omnibus bill.There was no shame in acknowledging the oversights.The anti-terrorism package was hammered together in ferocious haste by squads of federal lawyers who aimed to make it constitutionally bulletproof, not impenetrable to political sharpshooting.And she must’ve done something right.The Canadian Alliance ignored the amendments and opened their question period attack Tuesday by taking up the plight of a Quebec CBC radio journalist who was suspended after publishing a “history" book accusing English Canada of unleashing “a contemptible campaign of hate" against Quebec.I guess if fawning federal favouritism in government procurement, hiring, economic development and cultural support is hateful, the fella’s got a grievance.OK, now that we’re back on topic, the defining act of McLellan’s legislative atonement was to acquiesce to a sunset clause, a legal execution date championed by lawyers, civil rights types, senators, cabinet ministers and, well, just about everyone who figures handing politicians unprecedented power for an unlimited duration is a very bad idea.Don Martin SOUTHAM News Unfortunately, what McLellan gave us was a sunset of the sort they see in Yellowknife on the summer solstice.Sure, she’ll impose a five-year time limit on the use of police apprehension based on mere suspicion of terrorist activity and the forced tes-¦111 timony of new investigative hearings.But by insisting on the right to renew the provisions based on a simple majority vote by Parliament and the Senate, both Liberal-controlled and likely to stay that way for eons to come, the sunset will stay dark only long enough for our one-party state to approve another sunrise.Unless there are compelling political - reasons to kill the bill, it will shine on and on and on.Beyond that McLellan did, at considerable insult to her ego, agree to a majority of the key recommendations advanced by the Senate in its recent report and she lifted verbatim many of the concerns expressed by Irwin Cotier, a Liberal - MP from McGill University who just happens to be one of Canada’s leading experts on counterterrorism.She hedged her ministerial power to suppress sensitive terrorist-fighting information by giving a veto to a federal court judge.She loosened the definition of terrorist activity so that illegal “advocacy, protest, dissent or stoppage of work” no longer constitutes terrorism.Thus, an illegal nurses’ strike would only terrorize bed-ridden hospital patients and not society in general.There were a couple exceptions to her cool embrace of outside input.McLellan rejected the Senate’s push for an Officer of Parliament to super- vise the bill in favour of annual police and government reports on the use of the new legal weapons.“There’s no need for a new officer and a new bureaucracy,” she said.Ah, bless you Annie.Now, about that sprawling bureaucracy imposing gun control .There’s also no mention of the suggested appeal process if you’re unfortunate enough to be confused with real terrorism and listed as such.So now, as MPs get down to a painstaking clause-by-clause dissection of its 171-page legalese-laded pages, only big questions remain.Will the legislation work?Perhaps, if required.Is it re- - quired?Let’s hope not.If terrorism somehow disappeared off the global radar screen through the purging of the Taliban from Afghanistan, there should be no need to arrest preventively or investigate forcibly.If that fantasy could only become a reali- - ty, there should also be no information sensitive enough to rate ministerial suppression and no terrorist organizations to list.But the hard reality is that these new police powers will be required, will be deployed and hopefully will be effective enough to keep the plague outside Canadian borders.To give McLellan her due, she has recognized that Canadians need to stand on guard in case their government uses unprecedented power in unintended fashion.While the final bill is far from perfect, it strikes a better balance between innocent citizens’ right to protection and the fallout of their own government’s attack on terrorism.‘But what the hell — she’dpleged to listen and

man accused of attempted murder Police confiscate metal crutches By Daniel Huot Sherbrooke A Sherbrooke resident is facing a max-imum life sentence in jail after being charged with attempting to murder by drowning a neighbour in a bathtub and with assaulting him with metal crutches.André Grondin, 57, who is known by Sherbrooke police, is also charged with assault, unlawful confinement and uttering death threats.“The victim lent the suspect a hand by getting his groceries,” said Sherbrooke Regional Police Force spokesman Michel Martin.“The suspect then accused the victim of not giving him the right amount of change.” A fight ensued.Grondin reportedly struck Roger Blais, 49, on the head and on his body repeatedly with his crutches.“It appears he also tried to drown him on two separate occasions in the bathtub,” said Martin.Grondin seemingly confined the victim in his apartment, located at 31 Place Vimont for almost five hours Wednesday.When Blais finally left the apartment and returned home, he was advised to call police, who promptly arrested and detained Grondin.Police confiscated his “dangerous” metal crutches and supplied him with wooden ones so he could walk.That didn’t stop Grondin from lightly knocking a cameraman’s zoom lens with his less harmful right crutch as he complained journalists have no right to take his picture while he was being escorted into the courthouse.Nobody was hurt and there was no material damage.Grondin will be back in court today for his bail hearing.Police described the victim as somebody who is mentally challenged.Sherwood employees endorse agreement Staff Sixty-nine per cent of Sherwood-Drolet employees endorsed a new collective agreement during a vote held yesterday.“Workers accepted the offer, but it wasn’t in a mood of general euphoria,” noted Louis Bérubé, a negotiator with local 922 of the Association internationale des machinistes (AIMTA).“The specter of an unlimited general strike probably did much to contribute to the workers’ endorsement.” Class 1 and 2 workers will receive a .22 cent hourly pay increase over the next three years, class three workers will get a .25 cent increase and class 4 workers a .50 cent increase in the first year and a .25 cent increase in the final two years of the three-year collective agreement.It is retroactive to Sept.1, 2001.Negotiators also managed to get bonuses included in the new agreement.Approximately $64,000 will be distributed among workers this year.Approximately 93 people work in the low season at the Sherwood-Drolet factory, while up to 150 people are employed during the main period.¦ National Défense ¦ ?¦ Defence nationale If life seems to be getting repetitive, maybe you need to re-energize in the Army Reserve.You work selected

buyouts or other work options.4 T wm Kruger: Cont’d from Page 1 Severance packages ranged from a minimum of $2,000 to a maximum of $30,000 for drivers with 25 years or more of service.The company’s press release also says discussions are underway to maintain shunting operations — that is trucking work inside the mill.That, they say, could preserve six trucking jobs.But at the meeting, truckers were told the six jobs would be maintained and would be offered to drivers in order of seniority.Workers who obtained the jobs would remain with the company and would not get buy-outs.CSN union spokesman Jean-René Ré said the whole mess, which began with a request to unionize the six shunters who work inside the plant, could have been avoided.“If they had accepted that, we would have avoided all this, and they would not have had to close the trucking division,” said Ré, adding that the union’s vision that the shunters be unionized turned out to be the right one.“Now everyone is angry.The shunters will be unionized, but it won’t be the same men.” The company said drivers will be offered jobs with “one of the public carriers” that have taken over their work, or, for those not wishing to take advantage of the job offer, help from a professional relocation service to find another job.Representatives from Papineau — a division of Trans Force Incorporated, a conglomerate which controls most of the trucking trade in Quebec — were on hand to meet with the truckers who were invited to apply for jobs at the company’s Rock Forest office starting today.But despite guarantees of jobs, some drivers — particularly the union organizers and the more vocal about problems — fear they won’t be included with the new carrier.“There’s a frigging blacklist,” predicted one driver.“There’s a group of drivers who will never be hired by Papineau.” And even if they got a job with Papineau, some of the problems would just follow them there, said workers, explaining that management responsible for a lot of the tensions have also been offered jobs with the new carrier.“Can you imagine what it would be like to work under those conditions?” After getting the news, drivers convened at a local sports bar for lunch.While some were bitter, others took the bad news in stride.“Life had no guarantees,” said one driver, adding that with the economy a lot of people are without work.“At least they’ve provided for us.Some people can blame the company, some people can blame the union, but that’s the way things are.It’s real sad, but we have to turn the page.” Added a colleague: “You can’t dwell on things.” But the two agreed they will not have a hard time finding a new job.“The one thing about the trucking industry is that there are a lot of jobs to be had,” one said, adding that “once you’ve been a Kruger driver, you can pretty well go anywhere you want to.” While the company’s reputation will follow the drivers, their pay will not.Public carriers don’t offer the same wages, benefits or prestige of working for a private company, the drivers admit.Also, many are still bitter about the problems that led them to form a union in the first place.“For four years, we have been crying for help and nothing happened,” complained one driver.“Finally we took drastic measures, and look what happened.” Since 1993, Kruger had not hired any full-time drivers, preferring to set up a so-called pool of replacement workers.But the replacement workers were putting in as many hours as regular drivers, and sometimes more, ranging up to 70 hours a week, six days, with no benefits.With more than a touch of sarcasm, some senior drivers refer to the pool drivers aie “the coloured help”.“While the black help gets nothing, the white folk got an extra week’s pay,” said another senior driver.“They didn’t change even at the last minute.” “This was not about money, it was for respect,” said one driver, adding that despite the bitter end, the majority of drivers enjoyed working for Kruger.“All we wanted was respect and equality.We couldn’t even get that.” m f , Li ¦ mmt £**’•»** 10/ interest /O bonus the first year for new RRSP funds PLACEMENTS rxt irDEp STEP-UP BONUS Placements * Rate

Church is alive and well Dear Editor, On Nov, 21, The Record published an article on the housing project for the elderly in Thetford Mines that the Megantic Community Development Corporation (MCDC) has been working on for the last year.Your reporter, Mr.Stephen McDougall had called me the day before to ask me questions about this project which I answered to the best of my knowledge.My answers were used as the base for the article that was published the following day.In this article, Mr.McDougall is quoting me as saying that the reason that MCDC chose the Anglican Church building for this project is “because of its size and the fact that few of the congregation attend the service held every two weeks.” If Mr.McDougall had questioned me about this, I would have said that it is because the Anglican Diocese of Quebec has generously offered to donate the church hall and land to MCDC specifically for this project, which, to my knowledge, is the only reason.I know for a fact that the church is very alive and well, that there is a weekly service (biweekly with an Anglican minister) that there are now two choirs (one choir for adults and one junior choir), that the church started a new Sunday School this fall and that the Casavant pipe organ will be rebuilt in January 2002.Suzanne Aubre Community Animator, MCDC Good protestors responsible for bad apples Dear Editor, Tom Cavanagh’s article entitled “Most were there because they want a better world” makes some good points.However, neither it nor other coverage I have read about in Ottawa, Quebec, Seattle or any other venues where violence has accompanied legitimate meetings of legitimately elected world leaders has pointed the finger at the “good” protesters as being responsible for the presence of the “bad” protesters.The bad guys would not have the guts to show up if it were not for the protection provided by the good guys, especially large number of good guys.The troublemakers dart out of large crowds to throw their molo-tov cocktails, or whatever, and dart back into the safety of the large group, leaving the police with two undesirable choices — charge into the big crowd, or let them go.I am not a lawyer, but the words “aiding and abetting” come to mind as being very appropriate insofar as the responsibility of the so called “good” protesters.It’s time they faced up to what has turned out to be a most shameful situation in our world.I do not know of a country worth living in that does not have a combination of democratically elected government and capitalism as its economic system.They are not perfect, but as Sir Winston Churchill once said: “better than any other system that has been tried”, and a lot better than the system we have seen in the streets lately where anarchists are not only tolerated, but helped to a significant measure by the people who like to call themselves “peaceful” protesters with legitimate purposes.Get yourselves a mirror “good” guys and have a long hard look.Burton McConnell Lennoxville It should surprise no one that Bernard Landry is insisting that those who “over-interpreted or misinterpreted or even viciously interpreted” his closing remarks at a PQ gathering last weekend are putting their own believabili-ty up for assessment.Then he goes further by saying that those who give a “manifestly wrong” interpretation of his words “will pay with their credibility.” Sounds pretty damning, but it hardly lets him off the hook.Mr.Landry should be the first to admit that what he says is very often not only fair game for interpretation, but begging for it.Landry, after all, is seldom guilty of the concise expression of clear thoughts.Colourful speech is more his style, but what is more important in this instance than his accusations is that he does not deny actually saying what he was quoted as saying.Would you like an example of a Landry quote begging for interpretation?“The freedom of peoples and nations and their character is an indispensable condition for global equilibrium,” said Landry.Wow! Can you picture how many amens he’d get for that at a revival meeting?He “clarified” himself by adding: “Otherwise we will go from dominant imperialism and disappointment to deep bitterness.” Thanks Bernie, but that must be some coded language only PQ card carriers could be expected to understand.It’s a good thing someone tried to interpret that for the sake of the rest of Quebecers.Then, just to be sure he’d get his point across, Landry is supposed to have added: “The future is Catalan or Taliban.” Catalonia, of course, is that semi-autonomous state in northeast Spain that would like full independence, and everyone knows that the Taliban is an ally of Osama bin Laden.So, for Mr.Landry to complain about being misinterpreted by the media in suggestions that he linked Quebec’s sovereignty movement and Catalonia’s and the sovereignty movement’s possible methods and the Taliban’s is fruitless.If he didn’t mean it, that’s one thing, but to deny that he drew the parallels is another entirely.This is just one more in a series of “explanations” Mr.Landry has had to make since taking office.In fact, Landry is so often before the cameras claiming that what he said wasn’t what he meant that Quebecers have to seriously question whether Mr.Landry ever means what he says.THE P.0.Box 1200 Sherbrooke J1H 516 or 1195 Gall E, Sherbrooke JIG 1Y7 Fax:819-569-3945 e-maii:

everything from air safety to energy and military security.“The bill presents a package of legislative measures designed to protect Canadians from the horrors of terrorism,” Transport Minister David Col-lenette said as he tabled the new Public Safety Act in the Commons.“It is another step in the Canadian government’s fight against terrorism.” Opposition MPs raised concerns, however, that it endangers Canadians’ constitutional rights by giving the government broad new powers.The legislation, arising from the Sept.11 attacks against the United States, amends 19 acts of Parliament.It follows on the heels of the broad anti-terrorism measures of Bill C-36, which next week goes to third reading in the Commons, which will not sit today because of the NDP convention in Winnipeg.The new bill includes such provisions as allowing the government to force airlines to provide information on passengers to federal authorities and foreign governments during times of a credible threat or security concern.It gives cabinet ministers emergency authority to make interim orders, valid for up to one year, dealing with threats to national safety in such areas as air travel, the environment, energy, health and defence.For example, Defence Minister Art Eggleton told reporters, when military aircraft from an allied country are parked at a Canadian civilian airport, that space can be deemed a tem- porary military security zone on short notice.In the case of energy needs, the government may take steps, such as waiving the formal publishing of notice when energy is to be transferred, “if it is deemed there is a critical shortage of energy outside of Canada,” the new bill says.The new bill also allows the government to make emergency regulations “relating to the security of pipelines and international power lines.” In briefing reporters on the question of air passenger screening, senior government officials said the government would require airlines to provide advance passenger information: name, passport number, gender and nationality.However, should Canadian officials be alerted to a credible threat aboard an airborne plane, they would attempt to get “every piece of information we can get,” they added, in order “to resolve whether or not we have a terrorist on that aircraft.” Earlier, Collenette said the government had not ruled out the possibility of putting RCMP officers on international flights, aside from the current practice of a Mountie aboard Air Canada’s route between Toronto and Washington, D.C.While the Canadian Alliance called the new legislation “wimpy”, the Bloc Québécois charged that parts of the bill violate the Charter of Rights by circumventing parliamentary procedure.Collenette disagreed, saying the new bill had been subjected to scrutiny against the charter.But Conservative Leader Joe Clark raised concerns that the legislation MS lives here.Twice as many women as men develop multiple sclerosis.Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada 1-800-268-7582 www.mssociety.ca gives the government “very broad powers.” “The thing we cannot allow is to have the government gather more and more power over the ordinary lives of ordinary people without any control on the way the government exercises that power,” Clark said.But Collenette maintained, “The government is giving ministers in a number of different departments certain authority, when justified, but there are safeguards on that extraordinary authority.” The government said it did not know precisely what the cost of the new measures would be, but Col- lenette estimated they would be high.During question period, Canadian Alliance MP James Moore said the U.S.government moved much faster after the Sept.11 attacks to produce more comprehensive legislation.“Why did it take the (Liberal) government and the transport minister so long to deliver to Canadians so little?” Collenette said much of the powers Canada needed were in existing legislation and all the government required was enhancement of those powers.“We have been ahead of the Americans,” he responded.«RECONNAISSANCES ESTRIE » AWARD S February if,2002 Builders of today, worthy heirs of our

graduates attend Montreal job fair Trying to decide what you will do once you have graduated can be a frustrating experience.There are so many decisions to make, and what seems like so little time to make them.To help students with their decisions, guidance counsellor Connie Peacock recently organized a field trip for all interested Level 5 students to a job and education fair in Montreal on Oct.12.The response was overwhelmingly positive with 130 out of 188 graduates attending.More than 450 organizations participated in this event, as students had an opportunity to visit with representatives from all the major vocational education schools, colleges, universities and employers in Quebec.The event featured a variety of interactive activities and kiosks where students were able to explore career and educational options, pick up promotional materials and gain first hand knowledge of what future employers are looking for.This was one of many activities Massey-Vanier is offering to introduce graduating students to the various occupational opportunities available to them.For details, or a list of future activities, call Connie Peacock at 450-263-3772.Visit underground In October, 45 secondary II students visited the Capleton copper mine in North Hatley.The mine reopened to tourists in 1995 after being purchased by a local family.Some of the students, already nervous about walking around in a hole in the earth, expressed outright fear when they learned that the depleted mine is now home to several families of bats.Students learned a bit about the mine’s history, and the difficult conditions under which the miners toiled six days a week, 12 hours a day, for about $1 a day — a decent wage for the time.Although the history of the place may have foiled to captivate some students, the novelty of walking around the dimly lit tunnels fired the imagination of many, who were certain that they had found little glittering nuggets of gold.Remembrance Day 2001 On Friday, Nov.9, Massey-Vanier held its annual, student-led Remembrance Day service.This year’s theme was ‘World Peace will never happen.unless we start it here’.Traditional elements of Remembrance Day were honoured, including the singing of O’ Canada, opening and closing prayers, the COURTESY MASSEY-VANIER HIGH SCHOOL Secondary II Massey-Vanier students visited the Capleton copper

Editor Newsroom@sherbrookerec Teams meet in Bol d’Or final for third consecu tive year By Mike Hickey Special to the Record As Yogi Berra, baseball Hall of Famer and master of the malaprop used to say: “It’s déjà vu all over again.” It is late November and the Champlain Cougars and Vieux-Montreal Spartiates will once again battle for the title of the AAA CEGEP football season.The two teams have met in the last two Bol d’Or games with the Cougars emerging victorious in both games.If you go back a few years, you will find that the Spartiates and Cougars have combined to win the last 10 Bol d’Or titles.The two clubs have come to symbolize excellence.A closer look will show that during that span, the two teams have met in the final nine of the 10 games.A rivalry doesn’t get any better.So it is no surprise that Champlain and Vieux-Montreal will meet for a third time this season to decide who will bring home the coveted championship trophy.The difference in this year’s scenario, however, is that the Cougars are going in as the favourites and not the Spartiates.Vieux-Montreal went undefeated in the past two regular seasons, only to be upset by Champlain in the final both times.Now it is the Spartiates’ turn to try and unseat the regular season champions in the playoff final.RECORD “I am sure that they are going into the game feeling that they can beat us,” said head coach Tony Addona said.“In our first win over them at home we needed to score on the last play of the game to win and at their place we didn’t score an offensive touchdown.“When you add the fact that it is payback time for the last two years when we upset them and I think Vieux-Montreal has a lot of ammunition to fire up their guys.” The contest has all the makings of a titanic defensive struggle, as the specialty units will also likely decide the outcome.Meanwhile, the Spartiates enter the title game on the heels of a 16-13 overtime win over Vanier College while Champlain had an easier time defeating F.X.Garneau 46-7.The Cheetahs, with two wins over Vieux-Montreal and Champlain during the regular season, appeared to be the team to beat in the playoffs.But the Spartiates’ defence silenced the high-powered Cheetahs offence, and are now be looking to do the same Saturday to the Cougars.Game time is 1 p.m.at Molson Stadium in Montreal.There’s only “one” number to call to reach your Parts,

and women’s basketball teams continue league play tonight with a doubleheader at Mitchell Gymnasium on the campus of Bishop’s University in Lennoxville.The women, 2-2 in league play, will square off against the undefeated CEGEP Shawinigan at 7 p.m.The Cougars have dropped a pair of games after starting the season with two wins.The vertically challenged Cougars will need to offset Shawinigan’s height by playing an up-tempo style of basketball.Champlain will use a full-court press and rely on the outside shooting of Julie Pellerin, Anne-Sophie Ro-bitaille and rookie Stephanie Kay.Lennoxville’s Pellerin is the team’s leading scorer, averaging over 15 points per game, while Robitaille has added 12 points per game and has provided Champlain with excellent defence.Kay, who played at Massey-Vanier High School and hails from Knowlton, has been doing a solid job as an occasional starter and first substitute off the bench.Men look for second win The men will host Ste.Foy at 9 p.m.and then travel to Longueuil Saturday to play CEGEP Edouard Montpetit.The two games offer Don Caldwell’s club an opportunity to climb back into the playoff race after a rocky start.The Cougars played well in losses to Champlain St.Lambert and Vanier College and then outlasted John Abbott College 93-83 Sunday afternoon.“It wasn’t a gem but it certainly was good to get the win,” Caldwell said after the game.“We allowed them too many points and made the game closer than it should have been.” Caldwell is hopeful that a pair of wins this weekend will get Champlain back in the playoff mix.“Two wins this weekend would be great and we can do it,” Caldwell said in an interview yesterday.“They are decent teams and we can’t take them lightly.But if we play hard and smart we can win both games.” Caldwell’s optimism is due in part to the return of point guard Chris Blackwood.Blackwood missed the first two games due to a knee injury but returned to the line-up against John Abbott.His ballhandling and ability Çj&'cAnn 'Aôomij Advertising Consultant Tel.: 819-569-9525 Fax: 819-821-3179 email: sherbrookerecord@videotron.ca to create openings at the offensive end has a stabilizing effect.Another positive for Champlain is the recent play of forward David Pawucluk.The Alexander Galt graduate has averaged over 20 points and 10 rebounds in his last two games.The men play their next home game on Dec.l against Collège de Sherbrooke while the women will meet Drummondville on Dec.7.Both teams play on the road next week.Both Cougars basketball teams are going into this weekend’s games confident that they can come away with wins.While the men will try to build on last week’s win against John Abbott, die women look to end a two-game slide. — THE ¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ i .1.i .¦ " .RECORD Fkiday, November 23, 2001 page 13 SPORTS —=^^—== ¦ • • '¦ 1 Gaiters face conference’s top teams on weekend Bishop's basketball teams face toughest challenge of young season By Arash Madani Is it intimidation?Is it the atmosphere?Is it the dynasty that is being built, or is it simply the overwhelming talent that, for the last three years, has made Laval almost invincible in university soccer, football and basketball action?Whatever the reasons may be, no matter the sport the Gaiters have found PEPS Stadium about as welcoming as Rod Rust in Larry Smith’s living room.Duck your head when going to Ste-Foy because the Rouge et Or machine always seems to be rolling through.On Saturday, fresh off being swept at McGill by the Martlets and the Redmen, both Bishop’s basketball teams will travel back to the scene of repeated disappointments to tip off against a pair of defending conference champions.The Laval women’s team, 19-1 a year ago in the regular season, has beaten Bishop’s nine consecutive times, including the last two provincial title games.RBOOKD HIE PHOTO Head coach Rod Gilpin and the Lady Gaiters meet Laval Friday for the first time since last year’s league championship game.The Rouge et Or, ranked second in the country, boast one of the best back courts and inside threats in Canada.Marie-Hélène Pedneau and Isabelle Grenier are two of the finest guards in the land, while Josée Lalonde, a solid sophomore post, dominates inside.Injuries are killing the Gaiters (0-1), and with an already youthful team that boasts only one senior — centre Melissa Lemay—on the active roster.Bishop’s cannot repeat its dis-asterous performance from the final game last March.In front of a capacity crowd at PEPS last spring, with a trip to the nationals on the line, the Lady Gaiters coughed up the ball 34 times, leading to 38 Laval points.With the trademark Rouge et Or transition game rolling to perfection, Laval turned what Bishop’s hoped to be a tight game into a 82-50 romp.Laval has not dropped a step from a few months ago.Their lone meaningfull loss is post Isabelle Chaperon, who played limited minutes in the 2001 championship game because of injury.Should the Gaiters expect to upset Laval tomorrow, the team must control the tempo of the game to their liking, slowing the pace down and using the dock, as well as ensuring that the ball gets inside to Lemay.Starting guards France Lanoie and Christine Murphy must be able to feed the rock inside to their two-time All-Conference post.Finally, sophomore perimeter-threat Amélie Rousseau and rookie Carly Clarke must hit their shots.Laval men's team also strong In a short time, the Laval men’s club has gone from a Cinderella squad a game away from the national tournament in 1998 to a team that went undefeated through the playoffs and qualified for the Final Eight bracket last season.Anchored by sophomore All-Canadian Charles Fortier, who was the most dominant freshman in the Quebec basketball conference since former Gaiters standout Patrice Lemieux in the mid-90s, the Rouge et Or are favourites once again on the men’s side.like the school’s football team, the roster is stacked from top to bottom, complete with transfers from American schools and blue chip CEGEP athletes.Laval won both head-to-head battles with RECORD FILE PHOTO The Bishop’s men’s basketball team will battle the third-ranked team in the nation, the Laval Rouge et Or in Ste-Foy Saturday.Bishop’s last year, and even a slide in January and February did not stop them from a trip to Halifax for the national championship.David Ruel, Samuel Audet Sow, David Brownrigg and Yannick Boileau all highlight a returning class for the nation's third ranked team.Following a 10-point loss to McGill in Montreal last Saturday, the Gaiters, 5-17 in conference play a year ago, are searching for the answers that will give Bishop’s a taste of success it sometimes had in the pre-season.Seniors Dwayne Ells and Shawn Craik must deliver for the team Saturday and point-man David Suzuki will have to go the distance dishing the ball if Bishop’s hopes to play the upset role.Game time is 6 p.m.for the women’s team and 8 p.m.for the men.NOTES: Saturday’s doubleheader will be broadcast live on the Gaiters basketball network on CJMQ88.9 FM and world-wide via Real Audio at http://gaiters.fan.ca.The pre-game show begins at 5:45 p.m.on Saturday night and the crew will be live all night long with all the action from Ste-Foy.Brian Woods was named Pilsen-Pub Gaiter male athlete of the week and Valerie Rousseau, a Rock Forest native, was the women’s recipient of the award.Lemay, Pedneau and Grenier were teammates for team Quebec at the Francophonie Games this past summer in Ottawa.www.castors.net INFORMATION:

fan.Yet in a week, things have suddenly started to look up for all three teams.The Montreal Expos still appear headed for extinction, although there is political pressure being put on commissioner Bud Selig south of the border to rescind his plan to eliminate two major league clubs for the 2002 season.The club is conducting business as usual, the ______________ Expos announced its 40-man VIEWPOINT roster earlier this week, but - hopes for survival are extreme- Mike ly dim.Of course, the team’s Hickey future in Montreal has been on — life support for years, and this latest crisis is nothing new for long-suffering Expos fans.It is a much brighter outlook for the Montreal Canadiens, however, who entered last night’s game with the Atlanta Thrashers on a two-game winning streak, and with two new players.The Canadiens are 9-8-2-1 this season, and with a playoff spot up for grabs, general manager André Savard made a move Wednesday night that will strengthen his team.Montreal traded left-wingers Martin Rucinsky and Benoit Brunet on Wednesday to the Dallas Stars for right-winger Donald Audette and centre Shaun Van Allen.“I think we lost an offensive player and gained an offensive player.The difference is contracts,” Canadiens general manager Andre Savard said at a news conference.“Certainly we didn’t want to give up any offence, and we didn’t.That’s what we got with Donald so it’s a gain, I think, for the future.” Besides getting two healthy players, Savard also SOUTHAM Don Matthews is given Alouettes head coaching job.avoided the problem of trying to re-sign Rucinsky and Brunet at the end of the season.Rucinsky, who will become an unrestricted free agent, has two goals and six assists in 18 games.Meanwhile, Brunet has two assists in 16 games.He also becomes an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season.In 494 career games, all spent with Montreal, Brunet has 92 goals and 149 assists.Rucinsky and Brunet have both been troubled by injuries during their careers.“They weren’t having their best times, that’s for sure, the both of them,” Savard said.“We sure hope Donald brings that offensive touch that he’s always shown.” Audette, who had a strong year with Atlanta and Buffalo last season, has four goals and eight assists in 20 games with the Stars this season.Dallas signed Audette to a four-year, $12-million contract Lhis summer, but like many other offensive-minded players, he never quite adjusted to the Stars system or coach Ken Hitchcock.Van Allen, a fourth-line centre, has two goals and four assists in 19 games.“It’s tough to understand unrestricted free agency,” said Savard.“If you wait and wait and you don’t get anything in return then at the end of the year, you’ve lost a Martin Rucinsky for nothing.” Alouettes get their man Although the Montreal Alouettes are forced to watch the Grey Cup from the stands rather than on the field, the club has managed to steal the spotlight from the Canadian Football League’s championship game by signing veteran coach Don Matthews as their new head coach.Matthews, the most successful head coach in CFL history, with 173 regular-season wins and four championships over 16 years, was in Montreal last weekend, interviewed by Alouettes owner Robert Wetenhall, team president Larry Smith and general manager Jim Popp.Originally, the Alouettes had insisted that a lengthy list of candidates was being compiled, and qualified candidates would be interviewed before an announcement was made.The original timeline for the procedure was expected to take several weeks, but that all changed when the Toronto Argonauts began actively courting the unemployed Matthews.The Argos are also looking for a head coach because Mike Cleamons moved upstairs to become the club’s president.Matthews was interviewed by Toronto last Friday, which forced the Als to abandon their original schedule and sign the veteran coach.Popp and Matthews worked together in Saskatchewan and Baltimore.Although Popp’s job is secure, he has come under fire since the Als ended their season with eight consecutive losses, the final two with Popp as the interim head coach after he replaced the fired Rod Rust on Oct.31.Matthews is expected to change the country club atmosphere that many observers felt contributed to the team’s sudden tailspin this past season.Montreal started the season with eight wins in their first nine games, but ended the season in one of the worse slides in professional sport history.That will all change with Matthews at the helm.He is a no-nonsense coach whose winning record speaks for itself.4 i w THE ¦ ' Record Ftiday, November 23, 2001 page 15 In Memoriams Death Death Death MARSH, Phyliss (Bracey) - In loving memory of my dear wife, Phyliss, who passed away November

We have been living together for a year, and Olivia has gone through some drastic changes.She has gained a lot of weight.(People ask if she’s pregnant: she is not.) She also doesn’t brush her teeth or comb her hair.She looks like a bag lady.Needless to say, our romantic life is pretty dismal.Olivia was diagnosed with depression and has been on medication, but it hasn’t helped.I had planned to marry Olivia and even bought a lovely ring, but I can’t Ann Landers bring myself to propose.I still love her, but she is physically repulsive in her current condition and refuses to discuss the problem.I am trying to be supportive, but I feel trapped.What should I do?— Going Nuts in New Jersey Dear New Jersey: Apparently, the doctor Olivia has been seeing has not been very helpful.She needs to see another psychologist or psychiatrist.There are medicines that can help her.Please urge Olivia to move in that direction.If she is willing to try to help herself get well, stay at her side.If not, move on and make a normal life for yourself.You’ve paid your dues.Dear Ann Landers: I am one of those men who flies off the handle for no apparent reason and goes into terrible rages.I understand the frustration expressed by the women who have written to you.Please share my letter with your readers.Perhaps it will help others who have been in my shoes.I had a problem with small things setting me off.I was once watching TV, and the remote control didn’t work.I became so angry, I threw it at the wall with such force, it broke in half.I have thrown heavy chairs and torn a door off its hinges.I am not a big man.It seems an adrenaline rush comes over me when I get angry, and I do things that surprise me.Only recently have I managed to get my anger under control.I tried several doctors and finally found one who discovered the combination of anti-depressants that works for me.I am enormously grateful to my wife for seeing me through all of this.She keeps me in check by monitoring my moods.Sometimes, when I don’t realize that I am about to fly off the handle, she will reach over and gently squeeze my knee to let me know that I am showing some warning signs.There have been times when I didn’t think I could go on, but I knew I had to, for her sake as well as my own.My wife has always been patient and loving, even during the worst of it.Now she gets my very best, and we are extremely happy.I consider myself blessed.I know there are men who think medication is a crutch, but it saved my marriage, and maybe my life.Pass it on, Ann.— Mark in Texas Dear Mark: Your frank (and humble) letter is sure to help others who are fighting depression.Bless you for your candor, and an orchid to your wife.id- happy 4TH BIRTHDAY KYLE YETTER November 24 : ï.li Hugs and kisses.Love, MOMMY & DADDY GRAMMIE & GRAMPA DAIGNAULT GRAMMIE GRACE Aunts, Uncles and Cousins 50th Wedding Anniversary Open House 'A The children of Barbara and Junior Harvey invite you to join them in the celebration of their parents’ 50th wedding anniversary.An “Open House” will be held for them on Saturday, November 24th, 2001 at the Knights of Columbus Hall in Cowansville at 7 p.m.with music.Cold buffet at 10 p.m.Best Wishes only.•* page 18 Friday, November 23, 2001 RFroRn CELEBRITY CIPHER by Luis Campos Celebrity Cipher cryptograms are created trom quotations by famous people, past and present.Each letter in the cipher stands tor another.Today's clue: FI equals S ' V G PNLCPG-JCL, B ' T RPYTBLT PJ VL H AWBLRP, NJWULT NBPF ZHL NLRP HCT VJMLT NBPF AWBZJ IHWCLWH.’ - HCPFJCG K Y B C C PREVIOUS SOLUTION: “The worst moment for an atheist is when he feels grateful and has no one to thank." — Wendy Ward ® 2001 by NEA, Inc 23 CELEBRITY CIPHER by Luis Campos Celebrity Cipher cryptograms are created trom quotations by famous people, past and present Each letter In the cipher stands lor another.Today's clue' S equals V JSO WCLZ CV VGZXA AOBCXI AJ LCXN VJHZAFCXI AJ NJ UCAF A F Z ACHZ UZ FDYZ OSVFZN AFOJSIF WCLZ AOBCXI AJ VDYZ." - UCWW OJIZOV rr2 cut V3N Art 1002 ® uumo Auoqtuy — ,,'ejeujeo ourud qi|M paxoq pue isew eey\| qj|«t pe>tJOM Tsaud b eq oj peipnis p,| 'euo-AiueMi Ag, iNOlimOS SnOIABbd Aoziro MMon - Kit n’ Carlyle lwright@ic.net www.comics.com MS lives here.Multiple sclerosis usually strikes people aged 20 to 40, in the prime of their lives.Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada 1-800-268-7582 www.mssociety.ca Alley Oop cr DUCT TAPE .T TIE JUST THE SHOULD WORK.} LEADERS/ HERD x PERFECTLY/J/THe REST UP OMTO oer TO XT' "VS THE CLIFF/ -,—c HEY: STUFF/ WHAT'D THEY CALL IT- DUCK TAPE?www.eemkt.eom TAKE US BACK TO THE FIELD WITH THE PIT AND THE CREEK.'
