ordered out of an English language school in nearby Terrebonne reacted angrily to the ruling in interviews Tuesday.Three mothers said they would not send their children to French-language schools and one.Lai Ming Mok, said her five-year-old son David already has been enrolled in a private English-language school in Montreal.Mrs Mok said her husband was angry about the court decision and had talked about moving to another province The children, five in kindergarten and one in first grade, failed compulsory English-language tests under Quebec’s Official Language Act and are therefore bound by the legislation to attend French schools, Justice Guy Mathieu ruled in Superior Court Monday.The judge granted a per- manent injunction sought by the local French-language school commission prohibiting the children from attending Englishlanguage Holy Rosary School where they have been unofficially attending classes School principal Sister Diana Chasse said the children “understand everything the teacher said and were able to respond.” The children began classes at the school in September, but have not attended since a temporary injunction was granted Dec 22.Lise Robert, whose five-yearold son Eric failed the tests said: “I think its just politics.It shouldn’t be up to others where we send our children to school.” Three of the six families involved have one English and one French-Canadian parent.Another two have French-Canadian parents, while the Mok family comes from Hong Kong Co-op movement to be aided CHICOUTIMI.Que (CP> — The Quebec government plans to create a corporation of co-operative development.Lise Payette, minister of consumer affairs and cooperatives.said Tuesday “The co-operative sector will be the symbol of this new society we want to build, a sharing we want to build, a sharing which will become the living example of Quebec’s wish to take its economy in its own hands”, said Miss Payette She told members of a cooperative movement that related legislation will be presented this year in the national assembly, adding that regulations for cooperatives will be constantly reviewed and revised Miss Payette also said schools should encourage the setting up of co-operatives As a possible indication of the government’s forthcoming forest policy, the minister said co-operatives would gradullv take over from multinationals the cutting and industrial processing of wood “Forestry co-operatives should occupy a primary place in exploitation of this important natural resource,” she said Chicoutimi is 680 miles north-er.st of Montreal Premier Rene Levesque s first major speech in New York brought mixed reaction in Canada where some businessmen praised his presentation to financial leaders Tuesday But there was some doubt that American investors would immediately rally to Quebec’s need for more big loans “I think it was a very skillful speech, aimed as much at the Canadian audience as the American,” said Sam Hughes, executive director of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce “But I think Canadians will probably be more impressed’ Mr Hughes said he was startled by the parallel drawn by Levesque between the Parti Québécois’ goal of independence and American independence, “since the American Revolution was not a peaceful one ” if if if Mr Hughes did not think New York money lenders were reassured about the security of the province’s debt SAYS DISAPPOINTED Bernard Finestone.president of the Montreal Board of Trade, said “I think Mr Levesque has done Quebec a grave disservice by going down to an economic club (the Economic Club of New York) and discussing a fu- ture hypothesis—an in dependent Quebec which doesn’t exist “He was elected with a mandate to provide good government and to hold a referendum His entire speech was based on the assumption he had already won the referendum ” Jean Paul Letourneau, executive vice-president of the Quebec Chamber of Commerce, said “Taking account of the public he was talking to.1 think it was a good presentation, wisely done and reassuring “It is difficult to evaluate what the reaction will be in New York The proof will be in the pudding the next time the Province of Quebec goes to the New York bond market ” SWITCH WORRIES Pierre Des Marais II, president of the influential employers’ group.Conseil du Patronat du Quebec, said he if if if was concerned about the increasing importance of independence in the Parti Québécois platform “We feel this is a major change We gave him sup port when he offered a better government and he was elected on that basis Now the trend changes and his platform seems to be first independence, second a democratic referendum timed so that it will be sure to pass.” Says independence part of Quebec's growth NEW YORK (CP) Quebec independence is a coming tide and efforts to delay it are wasted because it is “as natural and irreversible as growth itself,” Quebec Premier Rene Levesque told members of the United States business elite Tuesday night Levesque’s speech to the 1.500 invited guests of the Economic Club of New York—including executives of Exxon, Texaco, Chase Manhattan Bank and Prudential Insurance—also gave assurances to foreign investors that there would be no large-scale nationalization of industry.“We are not against foreign investment as such and we have no intention of picking fights with private enterprise The Parti Quebecois’s approach is not dogmatic—it’s basically pragmatic.” But he hammered home his party’s commitment to Quebec independence which he said is “almost as inevitable as it was for the American states 200 years ago.” “Along with deep and durable historical roots, this political emancipation can now count on the support of sociological change, one of the most significant factors being the fact that our youth is already committed to it.” “It ’s a bit like a writing on the wall,” he said later in reply to a question.NOT ENTHUSIASTIC The black-tied audience responded with something less than enthusiasm to the speech, applauding only briefly at the end of the 30-minute presentation in Levesque's fluent English “He certainly didn’t pull any punches,” said one businessman later.Another business executive, who like most of those interviewed declined to give his name, said he found the speech “very, very powerful” and said it made him more aware of the Quebec situation.“I had no real concept that this movement is as serious as it appears to be,” he said.Another businessman, the vice-president of a manufacturing firm with a large Quebec operation, said industrialists with Quebec plants arc concerned with labor problems.plant reorganizations and the need to change corporate boards to include more French-Canadians But he added that language does not mean anything to a multinational company, which can function in any language He believed that if Quebec inde pendence did come, it would be within some sort of renewed federation with the rest of Canada PROPOSES MARKET Levesque told the audience he proposes a common market between an independent Quebec and the rest of Canada “based on a customs union, permitting free passage of persons, goods and capital, as in the countries of Western Europe.” And if desired, a monetary union may be formed Later, during the question period, Levesque said he believes Quebec independence would result in a “healthier” situation in the rest of Canada where the provinces could rearrange power-sharing and “make a new star- English and French Canada were like “two scorpions in a bottle.” and the 54-year-old premier said it was best to break the bottle “I think it would be a helluva lot better for Canada and for Quebec,” once the split takes place Levesque said that his government aims to increase Quebecers’ involvement in the province’s economic development but is ready to welcome foreign industry “so long as it respects our majority language and culture which is no more than any self-respecting community expects from all its corporate citizens ” He vowed there would be no nationalization of iron ore.copper, aluminum and pulp-and paper industries, although he added that the party wishes to regain control over allocation of forest resources TAKEOVER POSSIBLE Nationalization was still possible in the asbestos industry because of the traditional health problems among miners and the desire to gain full advantage as tho No 1 producer of the Separation 'a very real danger' - Clark MEDICINE HAT, Alta.(CP) — Opposition Leader Joe Clark warned high school students in this southeastern Alberta com munity Tuesday they would be wrong to believe Quebec cannot withdraw from Confederation He said there is a “very real danger” that separation might occur and added that Alberta residents would be affected by it “We can’t force people to stay in Confederation if they don’t want to,” he told a news conference, repeating that he would rather use argument than force to keep Quebec in Canada Mr Clark, who also addressed the annual convention of the Western Stockgrowers Association, rebuked the federal government for not working more closely with producers in setting agriculture policy He told the convention that federal Agriculture Minister Eugene Whelan “believes in marketing boards as a matter of faith, and in working to impose supply management on the beef industry.” He said his party believes in aiding producers by setting up marketing boards only if it is the desire of most producers.WOULD SEEK INPUT In his speech, Mr Clark said a Conservative government would bring “the private sector and the public service into a continuing closer partnership,” and would seek input from those actively involved in agriculture “Canadian agricultural producers have a right to know where they fit into the federal government’s goals and priorities for the Canadian economy as a whole.” Mr Clark also said the Liberal government must be condemned for its failure to make Confederation viable “I have no doubt that we are all better off in one large country with the federal system that reflects diversity, but we must demonstrate the superiority of that system by making it work better than it has seemed to work in the last decade “Part of the improvement can he achieved by insuring more co-ordination between governments and within them ” Inquiry hears prostitution ring allegations MONTREAL (CP) — The Quebec organized crime inquiry began a new week of hearings Tuesday with allegations of underworld involvement in an $8 million-a-year prostitution ring Among other evidence, the three-man inquiry heard testimony about a nude encounter between police Sgt.Michel Lepine and the man he said offered him $5,000 a week to leave the ring alone.Richard (Ziggy) Wiseman Sgt Lepine testified that he reported the bribe offer to superiors and arranged to meet W’iseman through a middleman, Lucien Proulx, chauffeur for criminal lawyer Maurice Hebert Proulx had told him there was “a fortune to be made in photo studios and massage parlors,” and that “a certain party is willing to pay you up to $5,000 a week” for co operating.Sgt Lepine said After determining that the party was Wiseman, Sgt Lepine said he arranged a meeting where Wiseman checked under the rug, in desk drawers and behind paintings for hidden microphones Wiseman then “started taking off his clothes, and I understood I was to do the same.” “He wanted to be sure I wasn’t carrying a microphone We were both completely nude ” WASN’T BUGGED Although he had carried hidden microphones to previous meetings with Proulx, Sgt Lepine said he was not “bugged” for the meeting with Wiseman The officer testified he was given an envelope containing $1,000 at a later meeting with Wiseman in a downtown • Thousands of workers strike in Spain MADRID The agriculture department an nounced Tuesday the 1976 support price for slaughter cattle has been set at $40 16 a hundredweight, live weight The program is expected to cover about 28,000 producers with a total cost of $45 million under the federal Agricultural Stabilization Act.a news release said The program supports 1976 slaughter cattle at 95 per cent of the average market price for the last five years The support level was raised to 95 per cent from 90 per cent due to depressed market prices, the department said Payments are to be made on the basis of quarterly marketing periods The payment for cattle sold for slaughter from January to March will he $1 84 a hun dredweight.from July to September.$3 a hundredweight and from October to December, more than $2 a hun dredweight.although that calculation has not yet l>een completed There was no payment from April to June as market prices averaged more than the support level of $40 16 Producers are eligible for the deficiency payments on up to 2,-500 head of cattle sold during the three quarters for which payments are being made Agriculture Minister Eugene Whelan said the program would help to renew confidence in the beef industry He cited the recently announced cow-calf stabilization program for 1977 and restrictions on beef imports as examples of government support of the industry Record

Canadian Bankers’ Association (CBA) show that there are 22 million personal savings accounts at the banks The total in these accounts has almost quadrupled during the last 10 years, but the average account still holds less than $1,700 Also interesting is that close to 70 per cent of the accounts are for less than $1,000 And a surprising 40 per cent hold less than $1100 According to the CBA’s just-issued Factbook, Canadians also write cheques in ever-increasing volume There now are four million payment items cheques, money orders and so - handled by the banks every business day, or 1.3 billion for a year And even these figures aren’t complete since they do not include the millions of federal government items and those drawn on other financial institutions using the banks’ clearing facilities Factbook includes a wide range of information on the banking system, including such items as: — The banks now have a branch for every 3,255 Canadians — Payment of interest on deposits and debentures is the largest single expense item for the banks, topping $5.52 billion in 1975 Canadian banks are increasing their international business and now have close to 30 per cent of their assets in foreign currency, up six-fold from 1965.The CBA says Factbook is intended as a compact source of general and statistical information, including figures on a provincial basis, for students,

formation of a committee to look into wage agreements TORONTO (CP) — Beland H Honderich, chairman and publisher of Toronto Star Ltd , called recently for creation of a special parliamentary committee to hold public hearings on how wages will be negotiated after pay and price controls end Mr Honderich also proposed to the annual meeting of company shareholders that a series of regional economic conferences be held, sponsored by the government, to help develop a public concensus To remove controls without a consensus, he warned “is to invite the risk that our freedom from controls will be short lived and that, in fact, they may become a necessary and permanent feature of our economy ” He said the parliamentary committee would move across the country stimulating discussion and educating the public about economic growth and distribution of income There was a need for restraint after controls are dropped and he suggested a national productivity council to establish voluntary guidelines for wages and prices in the de control period Referring to the problem of distribution of income.Mr Hoderich said an argument could be made for forcing business executives and professional people to make their salaries public, as now happens in the civil service He said the United States Securities and Exchange Commission requires companies whose shares are traded publicly to file information on executive salaries and bonuses Such a rule, if applied to Canada, would probably show that chief executive officers of companies with revenue of $100 million to $200 million or more earn from $10,000 to $200,000 a year.He said this was a lot of money but a salary of $175,000 leaves an after tax income of about $78,000 This compares with a production worker who receives an after-tax income of about $17,000 on a salary of $22,000 “It may be that this disparity is too great, that the contribution of top executives is not worth four to five times as much as production workers,” he said WORRIES ABOUT GAP “Certainly it is hard to justify the fact that 40 per cent of the people receive 67 per cent of total income What we should do is to narrow the extremes and still retain the incentives necessary to encourage individual enterprise and initiative.* William Dimma, president, told the shareholders that the future success of the newspaper is heavily dependent on new technology “Major

results for the year, Mr.Bernard G.Cote, President and Chief Executive Officer, said the loss was caused primarily by production stoppages arising from labour disputes at Drummondville and Sorel and by an unprecedented slump in world markets for polyester textured yarn Commenting on the loss in the fourth quarter, Mr.Cote cited several non-recurring factors: (1) Start-up costs and inventory clearances at the Drummondville plant following re-commencement of production in November; (2) Costs associated with permanent reductions of staff in the Drummondville, $4,000,000 still outstanding Canadian Javelin Limited announced that its represen tatives have met with representatives of the government of Newfoundland to proceed with the arbitration of the company’s outstanding claims

judgment on a declaratory action commenced by the provincial government the court do dared that the government should appoint its arbitrator forthwith and proceed with the arbitration prior to the Supreme Court decision The government had.for various legal and technical reasons, refused to appoint an arbi trator to arbitrate the company ’s outstanding claims At the meeting both sides agreed that their auditors will meet shortly to review all claims and documentations in order that both parties might 1h* able to expedite the arbi t rat ion The company said: “While it is difficult to predict when the matter will be resolved either by settlement, arbitra tion or even further litigation, Canadian Javelin Limited is hopeful that the decision of the Supreme Court of New foundland w

staple facility at Millhaven Mr Cote went on to say that the new polyester staple fibre facility at Millhaven is producing first quality product and is expected to operate at full capacity through the first half of 1977.The new electronic color-injection process in the Carpets Division at Sorel was started up on schedule in November A nationwide presentation to carpets dealers and wholesalers of the new lines produced by this new process is now being carried out with very encouraging results thus far.Commercial shipments of carpets and area rugs from the new facility have begun this month.On November 29, 1976, the federal government announced global quotas to hold imports of many clothing items in 1977 to the levels of actual imports in 1975.While this measure does not help the company directly, since it does not manufacture clothing items, it is expected to help considerably the Canadian apparel manufacturers and thereby strngthen the domestic market for fabrics and man-made fibres The outlook for 1977 is moderately favourable The Company will benefit throughout the year from the actions taken to reduce overhead costs at head office and at several plant locations It will benefit also from re-establishment of plant operations and from the new facilities for polyester staple at Millhaven and color-patterned carpets at Sorel.business to meet changing reader and advertiser needs

mills could cause layoffs of workers, officials of the industry were told Tuesday Jean Marie Ethier.an official of the Quebec section of the Canadian Manufacturers' Association, praised the Beaudry report on health dangers to asbestos workers, but added that implementation of some of its recommendations would mean extra costs to the mostly U S -owned asbestos firms and layoffs of workers He was speaking to business, medical and union representatives who met at a day-long conference to discuss implementation of the report Present were members of the Quebec Asbestos Mining Association, lawyers, physicians and representatives of the Conseil des Syndicats Démocratique and Quebec Federation of Labor, which together group a small percentage of Quebec asbestos workers The report was published last October following a government-com missioned inquiry neaded by Judge Rene Beaudry The Quebec Asbestos Mining Association said in a brief to the conference that "the risk of cancer in the asbestos industry still remains imprecise.” It suggested creation of an independent industrial health board.a key recommendation of the Beaudry commission, and said the association would publish a report on the various effluent-monitoring and control devices to be used to restrict the level of asbestos dust in the air t of C comments on economy SHERBROOKE < GB > The actual economic situation was not caused by a change in the Quebec government but had been known and forecast by everyone, says Gaston Beaudoin.C A and Activities at Galt By Kevin P.Brown Last week a few members of the Regional Student Government visited one of the meetings of the Sher-Lenn Fifty-plus Club in St Peter’s Church.This is where the "over-fifties” of Sherbrooke and Lennoxville get together three days a week and play pool, knit, or sing old songs The students decided to join them and sang as well But a lot of songs they didn’t know.The students were also shown around the rooms of the church The Regional Student Government was visiting the club to see whether this was a worthwhile cause.The club is having a Rock-a-thon and they would like Galt to enter a "Rocker” to help raise money for the club.The Student Government has agreed to this Last Saturday night, the "Sadie Hawkins” dance was held at Galt in the gymnasium from 8 until 11:30 The tickets costed $1.50 and 400 tickets were sold.Since there was no overhead other than buses, this brings more than $300 to the student activities budget to be used by the clubs and activities of the school The dance was a success, except for a few- pranks.Unfortunately, some student or students let the air out of a few of the bus tires.This forced ;i dcl.i\ ot an hour and a halt while waiting tor die tow truck with a compressed air tank to arrive.Luckily, only two buses were forced to wait.The music and a few colorful lights were brought by CKTS This year the Regional Student Government decided to form the Galt Film Society.This club will rent movies from a company in Montreal that rents out very good movies, and show them at noon-hour on about four days a month.These films will be shown for a very low price so that students can see good movies without going broke.The Student Government will invest a certain amount of money in the club to get it started and the club will take it from there Group may support set-up of Amnesty International ROCK ISLAND - At their January meeting in Rock Island the Global Citizen’s group discussed support for the formation of an Amnesty International section to revive dormant Amnesty International De L’Estrie (AIDE) formed in North Hatley two years ago Amnesty International has gained a worldwide reputation for investigating inhumane treatment of prisoners of conscience and

any U S.Amnesty program regarding Vietnam The Global Citizens Association focuses on the perspective of the global citizen and acts as a channel for their combined efforts and energies It is concerned with economic disparity, with inhuman living standards and unmet human rights, with resource mis use and population growth rates.It is also concerned with the positive potential of one community

are welcome to attend President of the Sherbrooke Chamber of Commerce in a report Mr.Beaudoin attributed the bleak economic outlook to restrained consumer spending, high interest rates, decreasing productivity compounded by high wages, and restrained government spending in the face of more social programs “In 1976 Canada became the biggest borrower on the international market and loans doubled from 1975, the report continued Our international debt compared with our gross national product is higher than that of Great Britain.” With economy presently at a low ebb bleaker moments are predicted for the next two years For Quebec, the consumer, harangued by political uncertainty, and investors, uncertain about investments, economic growth will be predictably slow.The report recommends that the present Quebec government elaborate on their fuftire policies in the following fields, foreign investment, price controls, social services, decentralization of services, syndicates and the PQ’s political philosophy.Rather than adopt a "wait-and-see” attitude local businessmen are becoming impatient for answers.Unpredictable as the Quebec economic scene may be, local businessmen have correctly diagnosed the major impediments for a sound economy in the forthcoming years, he adds New rights set up for tenants SHERBROOKE (GB) — Rent dwellers in Quebec have been accorded new rights under subsection 16b governing housing, reveals a communique from the Ministry of Municipal Affairs According to the new subsection, people occupying rents on Dec 16, 1976 have the right to prolong their leases until June 30th, 1978 without going through any special formalities The law stipulates that only people who have become registered owners on Jan.1, 1977 can demand the repossession of rents from the lessee either for himself or members of his family according to the Conciliation Law governing rents Proprietors of rents prior to Dec 16, however, retain eviction rights specified under the Civil Code, can increase rent prices in the usual manner and can modify the clauses of a lease The law presently in effect applies to all buildings occupied by lessee regardless of the date

accomplished soloist, Ronald Turini has given recitals before enthusiastic audiences in North and South America, Europe, and the Soviet Union He has also performed with many of the major orchestras in North America those in Montreal.Chicago, Toronto - and in Europe with the Royal Philharmonic, London Philharmonic, BBC Symphony and Leningrad Philharmonic.Following his 1%7 Carnegie Hall triumph, Mr Turini appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show and on CBC-TV’s ‘‘Distinguished Artist Series”.Encouraged in his youth by his parents, Turini enrolled at McGill’s Conservatory of Music At age nine, he received a scholarship to the Provincial Conservatory, where his mentors included Gilles Lefevre, director and founder of the Jeunesses Musicales, and conductor Wrilfred Pelletier His professional debut occurred at age 10 for the CBC.Of several important teachers with whom he has studied, unquestionably the man who has most keenly influenced him is the renowned Valdimir Horowitz.The New York Times has said Turini "has developed the kind of ear that calls up the variety of orchestral color and gorgeous piano sonority usually associated with Mr Horowitz.But there the similarity ends Mr Turini’s playing has its own clear profile - that of a painstaking musician who reveres the music.” Mr Turini’s program will include works by Schubert, Liszt and Chopin’s sonata in B flat minor

The labor movement, I believe, he said, "is ready to make that move." WASHINGTON (CP) Despite Jimmy Carter s often-repeated resolve to trim U S defence spending and promote disarmament, rapidly-rising congressional concern over NATO may force the new president into huge new military expenditures Such shifting of financial resources would seriously interfere with Carter’s long range social and economic plans, but mounting US.political pressure is fast removing presidential options Armed with ominous military evaluations, the politicians are also motivated by recent opinion polls that show a majority of the public in favor of strengthening the armed forces The trend in U S thinking has major implications for Canada, which in past years enjoyed the luxury of allowing erosion of its NATO military contnbution and its armed forces in general Canadian diplomats have already received pointed reminders from other NATO countries that there are military dues to be paid for admission to Western European economic and po litical decision-making Upgrading of Canadian forces and reassessment of Canada s NATO role are already under way.but the country’s NATO allies will expect better efforts as part of any drive to bolster the alliance against the Soviet led Warsaw' Pact Vice-President Walter Mondale told NATO leaders that Carter is considering boosting U S spending on NATO but other NATO members should be ready to increase their own contributions as well SOVIET BLITZKRIEG?Early this week, two U S senators painted a picture of a possible Soviet blitzkrieg slashing through weak and disorganized NATO forces At the same time, the U S.defence department called for a draft system that can be brought into action immediately to start replacing the hundreds of thousands of U S.casualties that would result from a W'arsaw Pact attack—presuming that NATO forces could hold out long enough for replacements to arrive Behind the specific concern about Western Europe is a general fear of Soviet intentions In recent months, in- This comes only 15 months late, 15 months after the federal government along with business moved unilaterally to install price and wage controls without ever consulting labor, organized or otherwise, and countless strikes in the post office where the government is determined to move in automated equipment against the wishes of the unions involved and without the negotiation agreed to in the last contract.Cooperation has been used successfully in Europe, particularly in Sacandinavian countries to avoid labor distruptions and to humanize working conditions for years, yet Canada with one of the world's worst labor peace records, hums and haws its way towards recognition of this elementary necessity.Although Mr.Munro stated in Halifax that he believes in a strong labor movement, nothing has been done to speed up the unionization of 7,500,000 workers without the clout of organized labor behind them, and we have been especially lax in recognizing the rights of white collar wage earners and professionals to collective bargaining, not to mention the various atrocities endured by unskilled immigrants.Mr.Munro's sincere concerns are a case of too little too late.If Mr.Munro indeed believes that "a strong labor movement is one that works as part of the national system instead of fighting against it," then action, not words, is desperately needed The government will have to do more than just grease the squeaky wheel, it will have to lubricate heavily those too weak or simply too tired to do anything more than groan.(r.'$ôffàïï oil telligence estimates have warned of heavy Soviet investment in arms, a large scale program of building shelters against nuclear attack, a widening Soviet lead in military quantity and imminent parity in the quality of weapons systems The most pessimistic interpretation is that the Russians will soon feel they can make big gains with a quasi-conventional war in Europe In that scenario, the Russians would rely on rapid achievement of their territorial goals before the United States could summon the will to make credible strategic nuclear threats.CAN OVER RUN NATO The key to such a Soviet strategy is the ability to quickly overrun NATO forces, an ability that in the past has been prevented by the superior quality of NATO forces and the possibility of NATO use of tactical nuclear weapons to compensate further for numerical inferiority.But the two senators who issued a grim report to the Senate armed services committee.Democrat Sam Nunn and Republican Dewey Bartlett, warned that NATO’s edge in quality is fast vanishing and the Russians are already ahead in the range and destructive force of tactical nuclear weapons Worse, the senators said after their NATO tour, is their finding that Soviet forces have the ability to launch an offensive with little if any warning while the NATO command structure is so cumbersome that well-organized defence may be impossible The pessimists have their opponents who argue that militarists are promoting a vision of Armageddon to get more money.Georges Buis, a retired French general, said U S.forces still have superiority and “the facts don’t back up the statements of alarm.” “They happen though every year when they’re about to vote the U S.military budget and right on schedule with the NATO annual general meeting.” he said B\ DAVID SHERMAN < Record Reporter » Our friend.Norma, came to visit for a few days last week and tell us all the gossip from back home The poor lady can t get out of bed in the morning without having a cup of coffee pressed under her nose like smelling salts Wanting to be a good host.I turned up the collar on my trench coat and ignored the hordes of bean boycotters to creep into Steinberg’s to buy a bag of brew I was prepared for the worst I had been watching television, reading the papers Coffee prices were astronomical, and the bean imbibers of the world were uniting to clout the Columbian connection for all they are worth, frost or no frost I snuck up to the shelf like a dirty old man at a magazine counter, and grabbed a bag.not even daring to look at the price I wanted to forgo cardiac arrest until the check-out counter, so the cashier could at least shove a mini-loto ticket into my hand before they wheeled me away But, curiosity got the better of me, and as I was standing in line behind a woman unloading a month’s supply of white bread, soft drinks and plastic breakfast cereal, I peaked There under the neon glare, surrounded by the gently swaying musak.the pound of brown am-phetimine was only $2 09 There had to be some mistake Had Steinberg's not been reading the papers0 Coffee was supposed to have climbed higher than Quebec’s deficit But, there it was, the little bundle of energy churning in my hand at only $2.00 and change This was a scoop! I returned to the shelf and there they all were, con spicuously underpriced, against the better wishes of the news media, shelf upon anxious shelf, all priced much the same as before Columbia’s climatic calamity instant, freeze dried, beans, ground and drip, all the same I took an armful, passed COMMENT through the cash with my wallet empty and my heart already flying in anticipation of the perked pick me up to come But what about the restaurants, the last refuge of those too hungover to plug in a coffee pot7 They too were raising prices on the cupfull-from 30 cents to 40 cents; from 40 cents to 50^^ Did they know something Steinberg's didn’t7 Or.did Steinberg's know something that they didn’t even want to hear about7 During one of the many sleepless nights that followed the coffee binges.I made some calculations Let’s say the restaurants didn't know that Steinberg's was selling coffee for around two bucks and they had to pay three dollars a pound Using the drip method, you can squeeze 75 cups out of a bag of beans At 35 cents a cup they were pulling in roughly $26 00 per pound; at 40 cents, they were making $30 00 Their cost, however, throwing in a little extra for milk and sugar, is around six cents a cup Something was definitely wrong Either restaurants are depending on caffeine addicts to keep them afloat, or we are witnessing the biggest rip-off since the $3 00 bagel! But no matter I’ve had enough of long nights listening to my heart pound and suffering with indigestion from too many hamburger steaks fried in yesterday’s onions If I get the urge again, I have a few bags of brew fermenting in the freezer and I can have all the greasy coffee I want by throwing some Mazola into the percolator But, for the confirmed java freak, maybe you can visit your local heartburn pit with a gift from Steinberg s, before the word gets out and start getting some change for your dollar bill Or maybe you’ll say to hell^P with the whole thing and switch to a substitute made out of something like Latvian dried prunes LETTER TO THE EDITOR \ f 1 si t in accord with the policies of # # -

High above America’s last untouched wilderness in Alaska, oil company planes are flying reconnaisance missions in search of a vast new reservoir of hidden oil Oil already has been spotted seeping out of the ground in small pools, according to our sources, on the windswept tracts of the Arctic W ildlife Range The oil companies believe there may be as much additional oil underneath the range as already has been tapped for the Alaska pipeline The high-flying geologists are focusing on a massive, dome-shaped structure under ground, w hich may be hiding a great pool of valuable oil Environmental groups, meanwhile, have also been alerted and are preparing for an epic battle to save the wilderness area from development They want to protect the caribou herds, giant polar bears and flocks of wildfowl that make their home on the Wildlife Range Meanwhile, the oil companies are quietly prewunng the Interior Dept.our sources say.to open up the Wildlife Range for exploratory drilling For the moment, the oil giants have run into a wall Our sources say the Interior Dept has refused to consider any leasing of the Arctic Range because it may be designated as a w ilderness area The decision is now up to Cecil Andrus, the new Interior secretary, who was a champion of environmentalists as governor of Idaho The oil companies turned to the Wildlife Range after disappointment in another area of Arctic Alaska, the Naval FVtroleum Reserve No 4 The oil barons had hoped to find billions of barrels of oil there but our sources say some of the most promising sites have now been drilled and found dry This caused the industry to send its planes over the* Arctic Wildlife Range, when' another battle is shaping up between the need for energy and environmental protection Nuclear Danger*.- In past columns, we have reported that terrorists an* trying to get their hands on American nuclear weapons Yet the nation's nuclear stockpiles are dangerousb vulnerable government investigators believe, with sloppy security that could he breached by determined extremists Federal officials have concentrated on safeguarding plutonium, which can he used to make nuclear bombs But there is another element, called neptunium, which can also he used to make nuclear weapons.Unlike plutonium and uranium.Jack Anderson’s a > • Washington o n w however, neptunium is not subject to tough federal security measures Incredibly.the dangerous element has been left off the federal lust of “special nuclear materials" We have obtained an unpublished study w hich warns of the dangers of neptunium It w as conducted by Dr Marvin Resnikoff.a Buffalo nuc lear physicist w ho works for the New York FNiblic interest Research Group “It appears likely that (neptunium) has strategic importance for nuclear explosives.either as the core or as the reflector of a nuclear device." the study warns “However, neptunium is NOT classified as a strategic material, and therefore does not have the' customary safeguards and criticality standards " The Nuclear Regulator Commission doe^i’t dispute these conclusions But an NRC spokesman said the commission is not worried because there isn't enough neptunium in private hands to make a nuclear bomb Scientists estimate it would take over 100 pounds of the material to produce an explosion But Resnikoff warns that private nuclear reactors have the capability to produce much more' neptunium, which would then he* vulne»rable to theft by terrorists.The element is now used commercially in the* production of pace'makers and satellite's Panama Propaganda The US em* ha>*jy in Panama may he getting ready to prepare* the* re*side*nts of the Canal Zone for a transfer of sovereignty to Panama At least an internal report recommends that the State* Dept wage a propaganda campaign to **11 a new treaty to the em bank'd residents We revends cite*d classified State Dept cables which reported that the economy in Panama is floundering" as a result of internal miOTianagement To divert the peoples attention from the'ir growing economic probk'ms.Panama s military dicta tor.Omar Tomjos, is expected to hpgin clamoring more loudly for sovereignty over the Panama Canal and US expectations.Most Canal Zone residents, the internal study reports, view the Slate Dept with “suspicion, mistrust, and resentment." They accise it of “selling out to the government of Panama" Therefore, Americans living in the Canal Zone “represent one of the most volatile anti-treaty factions." The climate in the Canal Zone, the report contends, is “tense." “fearful" and fraught with “uncertainty " The average Canal Zone resident, the study says, “does not like to regard himself as an expendable pawn in national security affairs - which, unfortunately for him, he is.Given a continued emotional buildup, with the right conditions and the right stimulation, violence becomes a possibility to be reckoned with." But the explosive situation can be defused with an intensive public relations campaign, the study argues With the proper “image, attitude and approach." it contends, “many can be sold on the new treaty" The L\S.embassy should decide “what will go over well immediately, what to hold back on.w hat is extremely sensitive, etc ," the report urges.An effective sales job can be abetted, the study says, by the “skillful manipulation" of the government-controlled press “A lot of good press would be essential for success, in this situation, we could make good use of the controlled press situation on the Isthmus,” the report suggests.“If this doesn't work, no propaganda will sell it."

environmental game which resulted in much levity.Sara Sur-jadinata chaired the reporting from the workshop leaders or facilitators It w as interesting to discover that the discussions and findings in the various workshops were closely related For instance, physical fitness depends to a great extent on nutrition, relaxation and exercise Meals made of wholesome ingredients are generally inexpensive Cutting down in the use of electrical appliances will help the environment as well as the budget It was suggested that we form groups to bring pressure to bear on corporations to abolish such things as double packaging, which increases prices and is detrimental to the environment.The craft and environmental workshops had display tables which were very interesting During lunch Norma McCord gave samples of some very tasty and nutritious food she had brought from home Zen Judson spoke about Amnesty International, telling what is involved in being a member Letters written by individuals have proven to be effective in having many political prisoners brought to trial and subsequently released Zen wore a purple stole made and sold by the wives of Korean pastors who are now imprisoned without

beginning to hate the word dissident,” says human rights advocate Pavel Kohout, Czechoslovakia’s most-successful playwright abroad and most vilified at home “That’s what the East has been accusing us of being,” Kohout said in an interview with The Associated Press ‘It implies something unsavory and militant that is directed against the state order “We are defenders of human rights and that, mind you, in a country which has incorporated human rights into its laws.” He said his endorsement of a new Czechoslovak human rights manifesto called Charter 77 is part of his longtime goal of seeking a “control mechanism” to make Communist leaders more responsive to their people.“The search for a control mechanism is what is at issue now,” he added “I don’t want to turn back the wheels of progress and return to capitalism, but rather to achieve a socialism that is as good as possible ,” WIFE ATTACKED Hlu wife, Jelena, sat with her left leg stretched out stiffly She said her knee was injured Jan 10 when secret police pounced on her outside their apartment house and dragged her away to be interogated about Charter 77 The Kohouts were among more than 300 persons who signed the document It calls on the government to live up to constitutional and legal guarantees of basic human rights The couple gave this account of what happened afterward On Jan.11, police surrounded Kohout s car as he was driving his wife to the hospital When the Kohouts refused to get out, one secret police agent threatened them with a pistol while another forced the door open with acrowbar The police punched and kicked Kohout, then took him to Cuzyne prison on the outskirts ot Prague for questioning “The one who waved the gun went completely wild and began slapping me across the face and cursing me, ‘I’ll teach you, you whore,’” said Mrs Kohout “But those are just Alcohol is the drug used most frequently in C a-nada It has its own inherent dangers.When taken in combination with other drugs there can he disastrous results Avoid dangerous combinations to improve your Lifestyle unimportant personal difficulties,” her husband interjected Others have fared much worse Four persons, including three Charter 77 signers, were arrested on charges of “serious criminal activities directed against the foundations of the republic.” SUPRISKI) BY TACTICS Kohout, one of the the leading intellectuals connected with Alexander Dubcek’s ill fated effort in 1968 to liberalize Czech oslovak communism, said he had no illusions that Gustav Husak’s Soviet-backed government would welcome Charter 77, “but I didn’t expect

Prince of Wales Conference remains undefeated VANCOUVER (CP) -Scotty Bowman was willing to gamble and Richard Martin had luck on his side Tuesday as the Prince of Wales Conference remained undefeated in the National Hockey League all-star game.Bowman shook up his forward lines with the score tied late in the third period and came up with the combination that set up Martin’s second goal of the game with less than two minrtre to play for a 4-3 dec0n over the winless Clarence Campbell Conference Martin beat goaltender Glenn Resch with a quick, low shot at 18:04 of the final period after some diligent forechecking by new line-mates Marcel Dionne and Guy Lafleur “I was just in the right place at the right time,” said Martin, who averaged 47 goals a season in his first five seasons with Buffalo Sabres Martin, 25, was named the game’s most valuable player and received a new automobile.Up until the game-winning goal, it appeared that Lanny McDonald of Toronto Maple Leafs was the leading candidate for the MVP award.McDonald scored the first two goals for the Wales Conference ana played a strong game at right wing on a line with Bob Gainey of Montreal Canadiens and Peter McNab of Boston Bruins.GOT MONEY’S WORTH Bowman, coach of Stanley Cup champion Montreal, said that Martin is the best goalscorer in the NHL.He added that the 30th annual all-star game, played at the Pacific Coliseum for the first time, was a good one and “the fans got their money’s worth.” It was the third straight loss for the Campbell Conference under coach Fred Shero of Philadelphia Flyers.The Campbells got goals from Eric Vail of Atlanta Flames, Rick MacL-eish of the Flyers and Phil Esposito of New York Rangers Shero.who favors a return to the old format of the Stanley Cup champions playing a league all-star team, said it was hard “for anyone to get excited about this game because the fans don’t really have anyone to cheer.” He said his best players were left winger Gary Domhoefer of the Flyers and right winger Bob Nystrom of New York Islanders Nystrom was a last-minute replacement for injured teammate Clark Gillies Bowman used just six defencemen in the last period as he kept Ian Turn-bull of the Leafs on the bench Turnbull was a last-minute replacement for injured team-mate Darryl Sittler, a centre.Shero stayed with the same four forward lines and three sets of defencemen for the entire game.He often used just members of his own team when killing penalties There were seven Philadelphia players and five from Montreal sleeted to the all-star teams.Referee Ron Wicks also called the first bench minor in the history of the all-star game when he detected the Campbell Conference with too many men on the ice in the first period It was the first time the game had been played in Vancouver.Vail opened scoring at 2 :54 of the first period when he beat netminder Ken Dryden of Montreal with a blazing shot from the top of the left circle after taking a pass from Denis Potvin of New York Islanders TIED SCORE McDonald tied the score at 6:22 when he fired a rebound past Parent after the Campbell goaltender had made a fine leg save against a point-blank shot by Bob Gainey of Montreal The second period was dominated by the exceptional penalty-killing of the Campbell Conference, which three times was forced to play shorthanded Bobby Clarke and MacLeish of the Flyers did much of*the penalty-killing up front for the Campbell team, with assistance from the Atlanta Swig has to partially refinance himself Cleveland Barons in financial straits pair of Vail and Tom Lysiak MacLeish, who is making a remarkable comeback after undergoing knee surgery a year ago, scored at 11 56 of the second period to put the Campbell Conference ahead for the second time.2-1.His quick shot from the left boards eluded netminder Gerry Desjardins of Buffalo, who was screened on the play by Bob Nystrom of the Islanders McDonald again evened the score for the Wales Conference by scoring in the last minute of the second period He fired a hard wrist shot past Resch, who was screened by defenceman Harold Snepsts of Vancouver Canucks HIT POST TWICE After Dionne hit his second post of the night early in the final period, Martin got his first goal with Phil Russell of Chicago Black Hawks in the penalty box Dionne’s shot rebounded off the back boards and Martin was in position to easily beat Resch Resch and Desjardins both made a number of fine saves before Esposito tied the score at 3-3.Gary Dornhoefer of the Flyers checked defenceman Guy I^apointe of Montreal behind the Wales net.allowing Rod Gilbert of the Rangers to set up Esposito directly in front of Desjardins Esposito beat the Buffalo goaltender with a high shot Gilbert Perreault of Buffalo had a chance to put the Wales team ahead with six minutes left, but he deflected Martin’s pass wide of the net with Resch down and out of position Resch then made a fine glove save on Dionne less than a minute later The Campbell Conference had a power play opportunity at 15 48 when defenceman Borje Salming of Toronto was penalized for tripping rookie Don Murdoch of the Rangers, but Desjardins was cool under fire and stopped a shot by Clarke with Nystrom waiting for a possible rebound PULLED GOALIE Following Martin’s tiebreaking goal, coach Fred Shero of the Campbell Conference pulled Resch with 52 seconds left in the game for an extra attacker, but the Campbell team didn’t get a clear-cut scoring opportunity on Desjardins Parent stopped 17 shots and Resch 15 for the Campbell Conference, while Dryden turned back 13 shots and Desjardins nine for the Wales Conference Coach Scotty Bowman of the Wales team had seven defenceman in his lineup and frequently used Perreault on two different lines in order to get four forward combinations into the game Bowman experimented with his lines often in the last two periods Martin slapped a pass out from Marcel Dionne .past goaltender Glenn Resch at 18:04 of the final period to give the Wales Conference its third straight win over the Campbell Conference Previous scores were 7-1 and 7.-5.The 25-year-old native of Verdun, Que , who averaged 47 goals a year in five previous seasons with Buffalo Sabres, was named the games’ most valuable player by the Professional Hockey Sportswriters As sociation and received a new automobile Martin’s first goal came on a power play early in the final period and gave the Wales Conference its first lead of the wideopen game, 3-2 Phil Esposito of New York Rangers tied the score 3-3 at 12 23 to set the stage for Martin’s heroics PERFECT PASS Guy Lafleur and Dionne checked defenceman Phil Russell of the Campbell Conference on the end boards and Dionne was able to feed Martin a perfect pass about 10 feet in front of the net Martin easily beat Resch with a quick shot to the far comer Lanny McDonald of Toronto Maple l>eafs also scored two goals for the winners, while Eric Vail of Atlanta Flames and Rick MacLeish of Philadelphia Flyers scored the other Campbell Conference goals Goaltender Bernie Parent of the Flyers was sensational in the first period as he made 13 saves for the Campbell Conference against constant pressure from the Wales team His best saves were against Martin, Brad Park of Boston Bruins and Lafleur of Montreal Canadiens in the first 20 minutes Canadian Midget Hockey Championships VANCOUVER (CP) — It’s beginning to look like Mel Swig, owner of Cleveland Barons, will have to refinance his struggling National Hockey League franchise oartially himself rather than relying entirely on other NHL operators for help.Swig appealed to the NHL board of governors Tuesday after disclosing that partner George Gunn of San Francisco had backed out of an earlier agreement to raise $4 million for the troubled Geveland franchise.NHL owners heard his story, then countered with a proposal of their own for saving the former Oakland franchise which was transferred to Cleveland before the^rt of the 1976-77 NHL set Jfl.“I can’t believe that Mr Swig is entirely without resources,” NHL president Clarence Campbell told a news conference.“We made him an offer and he is to get back to us in the morning with a decision.” Campbell and other NHL owners refused to say how much Swig has lost this season, or how much he wanted from the league It was believed he asked for at least $500,000 to continue operations for the rest of the current season.MAY MATCH FUNDS There was speculation that the NHL would match whatever new funds were established by Swig, although some owners said they were against financing other league teams after costly previous experiences in Oakland and Pittsburgh.Another line of thought was that the Cleveland league dues would be postponed until the end of the season.Campbell and other league officials refused comment on all financial aspects of the Cleveland franchise.Swig said the Barons could not operate much longer without financial help.The Barons have been averaging about 5,200 fans a game in a suburban arena.John Ziegler, NHL board chairman, said there would also be a meeting with Swig and the Cleveland players Feb.2 in Cleveland to discuss the situation Alan Eagleson, executive director of the NHL Players Association, said the Cleveland players would likely be asked to take a pay cut of “at least 14 per cent.” Eagleson said it was in the best interest of the players and the league to continue operation of the franchise.PURCHASED TEAM Swig, who is from San Francisco, purchased the Barons from the league two years ago after the NHL took over operation from former owner Charles O.Finley Campbell said the NHL has no formal plans for possible player dispersal should the Cleveland team fold.He said two possibilities would be a draft or player auction.A meeting of the NHL’s owner-player council Tuesday produced the formation of an executive council to study mounting NHL problems.The council will have equal repre- sentation from players.owners and Ziegler said the league agreed to make players available to Team Canada for the 1977 world championships in Vienna, beginning April 10.He said the deal was contingent on Team Canada not approaching players who would be involved in the Stanley Cup playoffs, which begin April 8 NHL governors also agreed to put a player back into the amateur draft if he remains unsigned for a full year after being selected Six teams remain unbeaten MONCTON, N B.(CP) — Six teams remained unbeaten after the second day of action Tuesday at the Canadian midget hockey championships with Quebec, British Columbia and the host Moncton clubs sharing the best records Burnaby, the B.C.amateur hockey association representative, won its second game of the tournament, a 7-2

Prince of Wales conference heaped piles of praise on Buffalo forward Rick Martin who scored the winning goal when the Wales edged the Campbell conference 4-3 in Tuesday night’s NHL all-star game Martin is some goal scorer,” he said in the dressing room “He’s the best in the league, scoring 47 goals a year for five years.” Bowman, now 500 in all-star coaching, said he gambled on a make shift line near the end of the game “I figured with less than 24 minutes to go it is like a sudden death game You have to play overtime anyway I had a hunch we just might rap one in.” The hunch put Marcel Dionne of Los Angeles at centre with Guy La Fleur on right wing and Martin-winner of a car as most valuable player—on left wing The Montreal coach said it was one of the better all-star games “The fans got their money’s worth ” It was also one of the most spirited, he added Nine minors were called, most since 1966 THIRD LOSS Coach Fred Shero of the Campbells, who lost his third try for an all-star victory, said “it is hard for anyone to get too excited about this game since the fans don’t really have anyone to cheer.” He said he would like to see the all-stars versus the Stanley Cup champions to create more fan interest.Commenting on the individuals in the game, the Philadelphia coach said Gary Domhoefer probably was one of the better men on the ice along with Bob Nystrom of the New York Islanders Both played their normal physical game and checked throughout the game.Shero started Bernie Parent of Philadelphia although New York Islander Glenn Resch picked up the first team all star award in the balloting “Both Bernie and Glenn talked it over and they decided between them the order in which they would play,” Shero said Parent stopped 13 shots in the opening period and

************** ************************************************** The Shaggy D.A.LOS ANGELES (AP) — How does a movie producer audition a sheep dog'5 “The same way I would interview any other actor,” explains Bill Anderson, producer of The Shaggy D A “I look for personality, appeal How does the dog react0 Does it cower0 Or does it respond appealingly to every situation?” Anderson interviewed a dozen Old English sheep dogs before finding Ollie, managed by veteran film trainer Hank Cowles The producer responded as though he had uncovered a new Jack Nicholson “He was the largest, prettiest and best behaved of all the dogs.” said Anderson “Nothing bothered him He was loving and he minded Perfect!” The next problem: Teaching Ollie to talk Such challenges are common at Walt Disney Productions Ollie talks, as movie goers can observe in The Shaggy D.A which is playing across the U S.and Canada this month Anderson is well qualified for unique film problems He has worked at the Disney studiœ since 1943 His recent films include The Strongest Man in the World.The Apple Dumpling Gang and Treasure of Matecumbe REMAKES OLD SUCCESS Approaching the studio’s mandatory retirement age of 65.Anderson decided to attempt as his swan song a remake of one of Disney’s most successful films.The Shaggy Dog “In the original picture the dog only talked in a couple of scenes,” said Anderson ‘The way they did it was to shoot the dog in profile and have someone work his mouth with a finger We thought of doing that with Ollie, but Art Vitarelli, who was going to direct the second-unit stunts, said: “That dog will bite your finger off.’ “Next we tried masks, but the masks didn’t seem right Our director.Bob Stevenson, suggested cutting the dog talk, but I thought there must be some way to do it.Either the dog could be taught to ‘speak’— by opening and closing his mouth—or he could chew The chewing gambit didn’t work, but the “speaking” did— with help from the Disney magicians Tests were shot of Ollie opening and closing his mouth, first at normal film speed, then double and triple.The slow-motion frames were put on a printer and carefully selected by an editor trained in cartoon animation.The result: Ollie speaks The Private Files of J.Edgar Hoover LOS ANGELES (AP) — Movie goers soon will see a different view of the late J Edgar Hoover from the one portrayed in films and television series extolling the longtime FBI director The film, called The Private Files of J Edgar Hoover, is completing production here after extensive shooting in Washington Television veteran Larry Cohen is the producer-director-w riter Broderick Crawford stars as the controversial FBI chief “We tell the true story of Hoover’s life,” says Cohen “A lot of it will be unflattering ” “We ll tell the good things about Hoover, too.” adds Crawford “Hoover did a helluva job up to a certain point.The trouble was that power corrupts, and he had the power— for 48 years ” Hoover died in 1972 still in charge of the bureau “Many of the things that I suggested in my script have since been proven in congressional reports.’ said Cohen The script includes the spying on Martin Luther King, Hoover’s stormy relationship with Attorney-General Robert Kennedy, and accusations of a homosexual relationship be tween Hoover and his longtime companion and assistant, Clyde Toison Cohen submitted his script to the major film companies but all considered it too controversial.he said So he spent $3 million and made the film independently Next month he will show it to the major companies and place it on auction Besides Crawford, the cast includes Michael Parks as Robert Kennedy.Dan Dailey as Toison, Raymond St Jacques as Martin Luther King, Andrew Duggan as Lyndon Johnson.Howard Da Silva as Franklin D.Roosevelt.June Havoc as Hoover’s mother.Lloyd Nolan as Harlan F Stone and Lloyd Gough as Walter Winchell “1 wouldn’t want to do an imitation of Hoover ” says Crawford “My aim is to capture his state of mind -what it’s like to be the top cop in the country.” With co-operation from the FBI.Cohen filmed at the old FBI headquarters, at the training academy at Quantico, Va , and in the attorney-general’s office Silver Streak LOS ANGELES (AP) Ever hear of an express train that made the run from Los Angeles to Chicago via the Canadian Rockies*’ That’s what happened w ith the production of the new 20th Century Fox film Silver Streak, and its makers are distressed by the roundabout route Says director Arthur Hiller, “I think it’s terrible when, at a time when the film industry is trying to keep production in this country, other industries help send production elsewhere.” Silver Streak concerns in trigue and murder aboard a crack Los Angeles-Chicago train, and it reaches a climax when the runaway engine crashes into the Chicago terminal The obvious place to film it would have been along the Atchison.Topeka and Santa Fe route But Santa Fe said no thanks “Maybe they didn’t like the script,” said Hiller “I also heard that Santa Fe had a serious accident during the filming of a movie a few years ago and was leery of any more film con nections “We couldn’t find any rail road that offered the locales we needed: mountains.desert, prairies and Illinois farmland So we had to go to Canada.” For Hiller, that wasn’t a sacrifice He was born in Edmonton and got his start as a director on CBC television He enjoyed working with Canadian actors and set workers, who comprised one-third of the crew Hiller filmed scenes of the Silver Streak leaving the Los Angeles Union Station and arriving in Chicago, but the journey between was shot in Calgary, Toronto and along the route of the Canadian Pacific Railway The climactic scene of the locomotive plowing through the terminal was filmed at Burbank’s Lockheed Air craft plant, of all places “That was entirely the work of the production designer.A1 Sweeney.” said Hiller.53 “We had talked about using miniatures or matte shots, but A1 said.Why not go full-scale?’ We laughed, but A1 was serious He built portions of the station and the gift shop in two hangars at Lockheed, then constructed a full-scale mockup of the engine, just the front itself “The mockup was placed on a truck bed.and a stunt man crashed it through the set.driving without seeing where he was going All the angles were worked out with a half-dozen cameras Fortunately, we only had to do it once ” The Red Light Bandit LOS ANGELES ('arvl Chessman, the con victed “Red Light Bandit” who won 12 years of reprieves before dying in California’s gas chamber, faces a new trial on the movie screen but his old prosecutor maintains he’s as guilty as ever Chessman, a prison author and jailhouse lawyer whose own legal motions kept him alive until I960 when all appeals had t>een exhausted, is the subject of a film.Kill Me If You Can.produced by Columbia Pictures for NBC' But J Miller Levy, the man who prosecuted Chessman in 1948 and thereafter, says the movie is just an attempt to glorify Chessman, convicted of more than a dozen counts of kidnap for the purpose of robbery with bodily harm as well as robbery and various sex crimes.Levy said in an interview that he read the script that the Columbia production began with and concluded “All they’re trying to do is glorify Chessman.“It ’s not a true account ” Levy said film director Buz/ Kulik asked him to give his side of the Chessman storv “1 said.“Sure.I’ll be happy to Just tell me when ’ But then they never called liack.” said Levy, 71, who retired from the district attorney’s office Jan 1,1974, after 41 years Ijevy says he won’t sign the release allowing Columbia to use his name Columbia spokesman Doug Duitsman said the script was written from traascripts of court sessions over the years and from help provided by Rosalie Asher.Chessman’s legal adviser during the Death Row years Alan Alda, a comic actor best known for his role as Hawkeve in the M A-S-H television series, will play the straight role of Chessman Talia Shire, an Academy Award nominee for her supporting role in Godfather II, will portray Miss Asher ‘ AH we’re trying to do is tell the true story of the Chessman case,” Duitsman said, adding, “We’re really just taking the 12 years afrom Death Row ” Chessman, though he denied it to the end, was accused of stealing a car that had a spot light w hich he covered with red cellophane, so it looked like a police car at night Using that ploy, the Red Light Bandit stopped cars and robbed the people inside Two different views of life with the “Mighty Ape” HOLLYWOOD - (NEA) -“King Kong” finds Jessica Lange, like Fay Wray 42 years before her.in dreadful jeopardy.clutched in the monstrous hand of the gigantic ape Lange says she had plenty of reason to be frightened The hand, she explains, was controlled by hydraulic cables and “there was always a chance of a malfunction The gadgetry was controlled by six men working the levers and switches that made the fingers move.“A couple of times,” she says, “it was supposed to tap me lightly with a finger, but it was very hard to make it do those delicate maneuvers.And, instead of a light tap.it was more like a crushing blow ” When she was 40 feet up in the air, encased in that hairy paw, she says there was also the frightening possibility that something would go wrong and the hand would open She was also a little terrified at the whole idea of suddenly being thrust into stardom — and in a $24 million picture, at that Jessica Lange is one of those storybook figures, a totally inexperienced and unknown girl, who becomes an overnight star “I don’t worry that this picture could have an adverse effect on my career,” she says “I’ve never had a career that it might effect adversely.” She realizes that her being cast in the film is the old story of being in the right place at the right time The right place was New York The right time was December.1975.a year to the day before “King Kong” opened She was modelling in New York And.unknown to her, I Jessica Lange producer Dino De Laurentiis was madly searching for a girl to play opposite the big beast in the “King Kong” he was planning De Laurentiis decided he wanted an unknown for his leading lady He contacted all the major New York modelling agencies One of those was Wilhelmina.and among her models was Jessica Lange “I suddenly found myself called to test for the part.” she says “They gave me the script two days before the test was scheduled I was so naive I didn’t know if I was supposed to memorize the lines or not So I didn’t.” She had studied acting for a year, with Warren Robertson, in New York And, actually, acting was something she had long had in the back of her mind “One of the reasons I started modelling.” she says, “was that there seemed to be a pattern developing, of directors using models in big parts.I thought if I modelled, maybe I’d get a chance at a part.” She got the part immediately.She thinks maybe it was because she fit some preconceptions both De Laurentiis and director John Guillermin had in mind “It must have been something I had,” she says.“I think it was a mixture of vulnerability and humor.” Jessica Lange comes from Cloquet, in the northern Minnesota woods She speaks with a trace of an accent, and it’s probably from the fact that Finnish was spoken at home by her mother and grandmother As a child she fantasized about becoming an actress.She was “enthralled” by movies and would see her favorites over and over, memorizing scenes and playing them out for herself But.when she went to the University of Minnesota, she majored in painting She left after two years, and began her years of drifting — she worked as a waitress in New York, then lived for varying lengths of time in Mexico, Amsterdam.Spain, New Mexico and Paris In Paris, she decided to study mime, with Marcel Marceau’s teacher She did so well that she got a contract with the Opera Comique for a year but left after that year — “I realized there was nowhere to go with it.” But she thinks there is somewhere to go with acting Even before “King Kong” opened, just on the strength of her being cast in it, she was sent many scripts She has accepted none of them She wants to wait and see what Kong does for her The producer NEW YORK - (NEA) -Why does Dino De Laurentiis push so hard?Why is it so important, for instance that “King Kong.” or “Kong-a II,” as he calls it, gross more money than “Jaws,” which made movie history by earning $118.727.000 domestically0 “If we beat Jaws,’ and Kong become first box office ever, is not for the money,” the producer says in his rich Italian accent and deep, gravelly voice.“I no do 100 million dollar just to make that money The picture must be a success every place in the world The more people who see the movie, the better.” Perhaps, then he drives himself for the glory That’s why he works ten, 20 hours a day, up at five to read scripts, napping at noon so he can push on into the night manipulating complex distribution deals (Paramount Pictures and who knows who else put up $24 million to complete “King Kong”), chasing stars for this film or that, overseeing a thousand details He smiles at the word “Not for the glory — you use such a word.” The fun of it, then?He dips his head, perhaps “We are in competition all the time,” he explains, “and whenever we open theater, we see if we break house record.“whatever the film For “Kong,” he stayed up until one am the night before to hear that it grossed a total of $33.000 on its opening in Manhattan at two theaters Both house records #m: * Dino De Laurentiis But why is it so important to break records, to be the biggest0 “It’s not that important, he says, recrossing his legs and shifting in his chair in the empty Saturday morning lob by of the Hotel Pierre “Let me put it this way If you play roulette and you put one dollar, you like to have two dollars But not only two dollars, you like the number to come out because you like the satisfaction It’s just for human competition ” And when you lose0 “It change nothing, only the satisfaction He lights another cigarette.De Laurentiis is a small man with a firm handclasp and gray hair that waves in the back Large, soft brown eyes harden behind his glasses when you point out that he makes shoddy movies like “Mandingo.” “Lipstick.” and “Drum,” then soften again when vou add that Fellini’s “La Strada and Bergman's “Face to Face” and “The Serpent's Eye,” are also his Yes.he makes both and he knows the difference between them Maybe one day one of these geniuses — Fellini.Bergman — make some special movie.” one that will outgross “Jaws.” These are my dreams Another dream is to show the movie industry what a shrewd (‘harming pasta-maker’s son from Naples, who at 57 has produced several hundred films since he began at 17.can do without having to cozy up to a studio board of directors who “don’t

so do the actors At the "Roots" of a success HOLLYWOOD — (NEA) — One of TV's biggest undertakings will be the telecasting of Alex Haley’s great novel.“Roots.” This will be done in 12 hours, spread over eight consecutive evenings, beginning on ABC Sunday.Jan 23 Anybody who has read the book is anxiously looking forward to the film And Haley is looking forward to it as much, or maybe more, than anybody Haley says TV bought his book before it was finished They bought it while he was still working on it “I had to write fast to keep up.” he says “It was like a steamroller was chasing me So he speeded up his writing to keep abreast of the demand from the five scriptwriters who were assigned to turning the novel into a TV screenplay “Roots” is a big success as a book, and it has automatically made Haley rich and famous He’s still having problems adjusting to that status “The success of Roots,’ ” Haley says.4 has astounted me They talk in figures I simply can’t comprehend He still values a tattered bankbook he has from a Kansas bank Whenever he got an unexpected check, as a struggling writer, he’d deposit it by mail in that Kansas bank “My account would get up to $500 or so,” he says “And then I'd have a problem and withdraw $495 But I always kept something in it.and I still have it.” Like all newly-famous people.Haley is now hearing from old friends who have read of his success and contact him But the roster of his “old friends’ is different from most The Diner’s Club sent me an old bill.” he says, “which I'd never paid But I got a nice letter from National Car Rental — they gave me back the credit card they once took away I keep hoping I’ll hear from American Express, because they took my card away, too.” It was a struggle for Haley, during the 12 years it took him to write “Roots ” The book is a history of his family, from the period when his ancestors lived in the Gambian jungle, through slave ship and slave days, down to the present His next book will be Search For Roots.” an account of those 12 years of research and struggle He thinks that will be more exciting than “Roots” itself He’ll follow that with a book called Henning, the story of the small Tennessee town where he grew up ”1 can't wait to start writing,” Haley says ‘Til start soon I’ve booked passage on a Yokohama-bound freighter I love to write at sea — I take a whole office with me.” Haley beg*n writing at spa because he was a Coast Guardsman for many years and started writing during that period in his life And he says he still feels most comfortable aboard a ship His success is not going to his head - or to spending sprees He says there are two things which it means to him The first is the chance to meet famous writers "I’m stunned.” he says, “at now being a colleague of those writers I’ve always respected Nowadays, they talk to me as though I were one of them, and that’s a great feeling ” The other is a feeling of financial security, for the first time in his life "I’m not going to do much with all that money,” he says "I’m getting myself a good stereo, because i love music And I think I’ll have my back yard fixed up The rest well.I have a good business manager and he’s taking care of it.HOLLYWOOD - (NEA) -We’ve had fires, floods, earthquakes We’ve had folks in jeopardy on planes, ships, trains It would seem the men making disaster movies had about run out

Timothy Bottoms plays the villain and George Segal is the man who is forced by circumstances to be his adversary They were shooting recently at Magic Mountain, a relatively new amusement park north of Los Angeles It’s big.modern, clean — and it boasts a dandy rollercoaster, just right for the big climax of the movie It’s called the Magic Mountain Revolution, and it goes up.down and over a series of hills on the site Its big feature is a complete loop, with the rollercoaster train completely upside down for a second or two Time after time, as director James Goldstone called for action, the cars came swooping around the bends, dove down the hills, climbed up the other side and then, with the extras screaming and shriek ing.looped the loop The big problem.Goldstone said, was to keep up the level of enthusiasm among the extras riding the rollercoaster “You have to keep telling them not to get bored, he said “You have to tell them to keep screaming, no matter how many times they’ve ridden it And they've ridden it a lot The extras and the principal actors are getting blase about it Bottoms rode it some 30 times George Segal rode another one 40 times This is the third amusement park the company has shot in The other ones were in Ocean View, a park near Norfolk.Va , and King's Dominion, a park near Richmond.Va The thread of the story has the extortionist 'Bottoms) demonstrating his seriousness of purpose in the other two parks He is successful at Ocean View, bombing a ride and killing 24 people King's Dominion is his second target Magic Mountain his third The only disaster in the film is that first tragedy at Ocean View As Lang says, This isn’t a disaster film — we only have one accident in the picture and that’s near the beginning But it is the threat of impen- ding disaster, the possibility that the other rollercoasters will come crashing down, that is.they hope, the thing that will make the public want to see the film Goldstone kept moving his camera, scampering up and down the hills to get new angles to capture the rollercoaster as it thundered down the tracks At one point, the camera was at the base of the hill, with the cars coming right down into the lens "Please send the car now.Goldstone ordered And.via walkie-talkies, the word went out and the car started its ride It came down the hill toward the camera and the camera crew involuntarily jumped “The damn thing came right down my throat, said one of the cameramen As the passengers — all ex tras this time - rode the thing, they mostly had their hands raised Apparently, that's the new style of roller coaster riding In my day.you clutched the bar with everything you had.but now you keep your hands up for fun One of the riders said that the big.dangerous-looking loop was actually not very scary He said that what shook him.rather was when the cars rounded the corners It shakes like a Jeep on a rough road going around those corners.” he said But the loop itself is easy Still, the whole picture is giving stunt coordinator John Daheim problems “It’s a hard picture for us.” he said, “because it’s all unusual When we’ve done things before, we know what to expect and how to handle things But we haven’t done stunts with rollercoasters before ” Down in Virginia, two stunt people — one man.one woman — were hurt in a fall from a car Daheim says the man catapaulted too far.dragging the woman with him They weren’t hurt seriously The next time, they knew how to handle it.The film has a big cast b^sid^s Segal and Bottoms.Henry Fonda.Richard Wid-mark and Harry Guardino also appear Lang says he’s all for all-star casts An all-star cast,” he says, “makes it much easier for the writers It simplifies the writers’ task When the audience already knows an actor.the writer doesn’t have to waste words on creating his If if nt In Airport 77 I have people like Jack Lemmon and Olivia DeHavilland The writer doesn’t have to take time to build characters for them, as soon as they come on screen, the audience already knows what kind of people they are I asked Lang and Goldstone if they were worried, lest the picture give some would-be extortionist or disturbed personality any ideas Could this film perhaps start a rash of attacks on rollercoasters and other amusement park rides0 Both of them felt any such danger was minimal v IS — THE SHERBROOKE RECORD — WED.JAN.26.1977 Dramatic Scottish castle overlooks Firth of Forth MAYBOLE, Scotland (CP) One of Scotland’s mo6t dramatic castles from the late 18th century sits on a cliff overlooking the Firth of Forth only 40 miles from Glasgow The castle, Culzean was built by Robert Adam for David, the 10th Earl of Cassillis of the Scottish Kennedy family In 1945, the Kennedys gave the castle to the National Trust for Scotland on the condition that several rooms on the top floor become a national guest apartment The apartment was offered to Gen Dwight D Eisenhower for his lifetime in appreciation of his wartime services to the Allies He visited the castle four times Originally there had been at least two Kennedy strongholds in the area and Adam incorporated the last one into his mock Gothic-style castle and added a massive round tower This allowed him to create an unusual round drawing room, which is painted in pale green with high doors that open on to balconies with a 150-foot drop to the crags and sea below RESTORED TO ORIGINAL It was possible to restore the ceiling to its onginal color since the family still possessed Adam's signed watercolor sketch Adam’s masterpiece is the grand staircase While incorporating some of the original buildings, he found himself with a great open space or well in the centre of the castle So he built a staircase with balconied corridors and high marble pillars on each floor At the top is a lighted cupola & SHOP&SAVE All prices shown in this ad guaranteed effective through Saturday, January 29th, 1977 Take Advantage of the Many
