MONTREAL (CP) — It started oil as a routine court hearing, but when the proceedings ended Thursday, lawyers for both sides were astonished to find themselves the unwitting vehicles for a challenge to the constitutionality of Bill 101.Quebec’s Charter of the French Language And Quebec Superior Court judge Perry Meyer, a former specialist in bankruptcy law and McGill University professor, found himself transformed into a constitutional arbiter when he declared one section of Bill 101 in violation of the British North America Act Justice Meyer held that chapter III.section 12 of the language law is unconstitutional because it abrogates the provision of the BNA Act guaranteeing that either English or French may be used in Quebec courts The ruling—immediately appealed to a higher court— arose from an injunction hearing in which a New Jersey-based company.Chemical and Pollution Sciences Inc., sought to bar a former employee from working for a competitor The U S.firm claims that Maurice Malone, now employed by Record Chemical Co.of Montreal, broke a contractual agreement forbidding him to work for any competing chemical firm for two years after leaving his former employer The provision is designed to protect trade secrets.DELAYING TACTIC Defence lawyers for Malone and Record Chemical, seeking to delay the hearing, complained that the injunction petition had been filed in English only, contrary to the requirements of Bill 101 Justice Meyer listened to arguments, retired to chambers for about an hour and came back to pronounce a 40-minute oral judgment in which he not only accepted the English petition, but ruled the relevant provision of the language law* unconstitutional.News Briefs Bank robber apprehended A yound Cookshire man will appear in court today on charges of armed robbery for a $1,000 theft at the Bank of Montreal in Sawyerville yesterday afternoon.The suspect, whose name has not been released, was arrested by officers of the Cookshire QPF detachment less than one-half hour after the robbery He entered the bank at 1:30 yesterday afternoon, and told a teller to empty her cash drawer after she refused to cash his personal cheque.There were only two employees in the bank at the time.Sawyerville Police Chief, Leo Hamel, saw the young man running up the railroad tracks, and immediately notified the QPF The suspect was picked up in a wooded area just outside of Sawyerville.RCMP data to be public MONTREAL (CP) — A Quebec commission of inquiry ruled Thursday it can make public the information in confidential RCMP papers, despite SolicitorGeneral Francis Fox’s opposition Jean Keable, the 31-year-old labor lawyer who heads the commission, ruled at the commission’s public hearings that it can reveal the contents of the RCMP papers relating to an illegal police break-in at a leftwing news agency five years ago.Mystery disease no problem MONTREAL (CP) — Medical authorities here believe they may have been treating Legionnaire’s disease successfully for years as an “atypical” or abnormal pneumonia, says the chief of microbiology at the Montreal General Hospital.“We may well have been treating this disease for years without knowing what we were doing,” Dr G K Richards said Wednesday.Godin says PQ split MONTREAL (CP) — Parti Québécois backbencher Gerald Godin says the government committee which drafted the proposed rules of the independence referendum is split over the wording of the question.Speaking Thursday on the CBC program.Decision, Godin said some committee members, including himself, favor a direct question to Quebecers, asking whether they favor the PQ's proposal for national sovereignty in an economic association with the rest of Canada Godin, member for the Montreal riding of Mercier which was held by former premier Robert Bourassa.said other committee members favor presenting a series of alternatives such as “the status quo, new federalism and outright independence.” Quebec wants Three Rs back QUEBEC ( CP) — A Quebec government green paper on education made public Thursday says the province’s public schools must adopt clear teaching and disciplinary standards It recommends bringing back homework and possibly extending to 17 from 16 the age at which students are allowed to leave the school system Grafftey wants new constitution GRANBY.Que (CP) — Heward Grafftey, a Progressive Conservative member of Parliament, called Thursday for a new Canadian constitution to be written by a committee of elected federal and provincial officials from all parties His plan for a new constitition would take two years to complete, the member for Brome-Missisquoi told the Chamber of Commerce He said the federal government and the provinces should form constititional committees, with each provincial committee meeting with its federal counterpart during the first year centrai kestrie He directed that a tape of the proceedings be delivered to him so he can write a formal judgment, expected to be available in about a week The written judgment will add specific references to the judicial precedents upon which Justice Meyer based his decision Samuel Greenblatt.counsel for Record Chemical, said he had not intended to mount a test case on Bill 101 He said the objection to the English court document was raised only to delay proceedings while a key defence witness returned from Europe The objection was raised by Jean Laurin.Malone’s lawyer, but Greenblatt concurred in the move Justice Meyer expressed surprise when the issue came up in court, asking repeatedly if he understood correct 1> that lawyers for English-speaking defendants were challenging the presentation of an English document It was understood that at a later private meeting with lawyers from both sides, the judge took pains to satisfy himself that the affair was not a “set up" to force a con stitutional decision on the language charter Gordon Zelman.lawyer for Chemical and Pollution Sciences, said the injunction petition was filed in English as a matter of course, since the plaintiff was a U S -based company, since Malone is English-speaking and since Record Chemical is controlled by English-speaking interests Although the ruling of unconstitutionality was im mediately appealed by Malone's counsel, there is a possibility the case may never reach the Quebec Court of Appeal m ¦ ¦f: “My client is an American company, and they’re not all that concerned with Canadian constitutional issues.” Zelman said “What they’re concerned with is getting their injunction ” He said the company has the option of dropping the case and starting all over again, filing the petition this time in French Justice Meyer said in his ruling that the offending section of Bill 101 violates Article 133 of the BNA Act.which guarantees that either English or French may be list'd in all federal courts and in provincial courts in Quebec Chapter III.section 12 of the French language charter provides that all written documents submitted to court must be in French or must Ik» accompanied by a French translation which becomes the official version Defence lawyers argued Thursday that another part of the BNA Act Article 92.section one allows provinces to amend their provincial constitutions That section has been cited by members of the Parti Québécois government and bv some constitutional authorities in defence of the language charter’s legality But Justice Meyer rejected the argument, ruling that the article is not part of the province’s constitution and its language guarantees cannot be abrogated by Quebec He directed that notice of the appeal against his decision be forwarded to the provincial attorney general within 10 days Textile plant means $12 m investment

appearing with all the trimmings sometime during the (Photoprose) Trudeau appeal* for English rights OTTAWA (CP) - Prime Minister Trudeau implored Quebec Premier Rene Levesque on Thursday to support a constitutional amendment that would guarantee remaining mi nority language rights in education In a needling 4.000-word letter to Levesque, Trudeau also replied to the premier’s argument that such an amendment would limit Quebec’s exclusive jurisdiction in education and place its politicians in straitjackets.“Do you seriously consider that the legislature should be able, as a matter of ‘sovereignty,’ to curtail further the linguistic rights of Quebecers?” Trudeau asked bitingly.The letter, made available to reporters a few hours after it was sent by wire to Levesque, was accompanied by a 1,600-word position paper in which the provincial language charter was castigated as a “separatist measure” that is dividing the country, undermining fundamental freedoms, and threatening Quebec prop-serity However, Trudeau rejected suggestions that he refer the charter directly to the Supreme Court of Canada for an opinion on whether it violates the British North America Act The prime minister said he was not going to give Levesque an issue federal intervention— on which to fight another provincial election He urged minority groups in Quebec to take the law to court themselves and.if they could not win there, to fight with their votes The law should be abolished by democratic political action rather than direct federal intervention The Liberal government of Robert Bourassa probably had been defeated last November because of its controversial language law “Let’s hope they do the same with Mr Levesque,” Trudeau said Federal lawvers would join in private challenges to the Quebec law that already have been initiated in the province’s courts Justice Minister Ron Basford said the provisions of the law appear to be constitutional CONSIDERABLE DOUBT ‘‘There is very con siderable doubt they are unconstitutional,” he told reporters He refused to go into detail about what aspects of the law might be unconstitutional He said it would be impossible to say until it is seen how they are enforced Advance comment by him might hamstring lawyers arguing against the legislation.Basford said SHERBROOKE Federal Department of Regional Economic Expansion officials are expected to announce early next week the name of the major European textile firm planning to build a plant here Despite yesterday’s an nouncement that the plant would bring an initial in vestment of $5 million and up to UK) new jobs, sources close to DREE revealed that the new plant will eventually mean a $12 million in vestment and several hundred jobs The firm has approached Ottawa for a foreign in vestors’ permit and has deposited money in Canadian banks to assure its good intentions, sources added The firm, which produces specialty drapery material, currently exports about 85 per cent of its wares to the North American continent and was convinced bv a Sherbrooke indust rial-development team that a plant in this area would be central to all markets, besides tapping a plentiful work force The Sherbrooke team, which had been wooing the firm for more than a year, had faced a cool reception following the Nov 15 Parti Québécois victory, but assurances from the federal government aided in reconvincing the firm to locate in the province, sources added Location ot the proposed plant has not yet been decided, although it is known that the city favors the new industrial park .and

weekend.Page 16.MONTREAL (CP) Premier Rene Levesque rejected Thursday a new appeal from Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau for a restoration of free choice in the language of education in Quebec Speaking to reporters Thursday in his suburban Montreal riding of Taillon.the premier said his position of a month ago—when he rejected outright Trudeau’s proposal for a rewritten national constitution-also remains the same In his new appeal Thur sday in Ottawa.Trudeau asked Levesque to restore the freedom to choose English language education in Quebec through a guarantee written into the national constitution Trudeau earlier told reporters the ultimate an swer to the ‘‘repressive provisions” of Quebec’s Charter of the French language is to throw the Parti Québécois out of office in an election Levesque said from what he had been able to gather of the new appeal, “there ain’t anything very much there.” Levesque said the federal government's tactics are “an exercise in pure partisan politics.” There is “a banana peel there” which the federal government does not want to step on The new language legislation “is perfectly constitutional,” but the federal government is asking people to test it in court in order to keep its opponents hopes up for a few months until a possible federal election is called.I>evesque said He also said the federal threat to delay transfer of federal jobs to Quebec until guarantees that children can go to English schools smacks of “something akin to black mail.” Levesque was referring to recent statements that the federal government might not transfer 1,500 civil servants to Quebec unless the provisions of the French language charter are relaxed Meanwhile, officials of the Lakeshore School Board and Quebec Federation of Home and School Associations reacted negatively to Trudeau's statements Gerald Hopkins, chairman of the Lakeshore School Board, accused the federal government of consistently refusing to act on behalf of the Englishspeaking minority in Quebec “The federal government feels that because its power base is in Quebec, it is not politically expedient to side with the anglophone minority,” Hopkins said William Miller, legal adviser to the Quebec Federation of Home and School Associations, said Ottawa's decision not to challenge the language legislation in the courts is “an abdication of respon sibilities.” Trudeau said the federal government will, however, join in private-interest court actions against the language law Dollar slide continues MONTREAL Continuing a slide below an eight-year low recorded Monday, the Canadian dollar broke the 92 U S.-cent mark to close Thursday at 91 94 U S cents Opening just above this rate, the dollar regained some ground before afternoon trading, reaching92 16 U S cents but dropped as low as 91 88 before closing In London, the dollar suffered on the foreign exchange from pessimism about the Canadian economy and the political situation as well as being associated with the depreciation of the U S dollar, dealers said BIRTHS, DEATHS 14 FINANCIAL 2 CLASSIFIED 12 SPORTS 16 COMICS 13 TV 6 EDITORIAL 4 When we were kids, our parents taught us how to

— FRI.OCT.7.1977 business and finance Tot seats: Your child's only protection Too often in this province, we see parents buckled into their seats - and their children between them and the windshield Sure, kids don’t like to stay cooped up in the back seat, where they can’t see anything but the backs of heads We all know how restless children can get on a long trip, how they kick and fidget until they’re allowed into the front But it’s flirting with disaster to give in to them, the Canadian Paediatric Society warns.The best defence against the tragedy of losing or maiming your child in a car crash, is making them stay in an approved car seat Seat belts for infants provide no protection; in fact your child may suffer worse injuries wearing a belt than not wearing one Adequate protection for children under 50 pounds in weight can only be provided by seats meeting Canadian government safety standards Statistics for 1973 show that 4.026 Canadian children under four years of age were injured in car crashes; 90 were killed All were occupants of the cars involved In 1975.611 Quebec children under six were hospitalized because of injuries sustained in car crashes Automobile riding is the first major threat to the life of the new born child The second, quite often, can be attributed to the parents themselves for failing to install a child car seat meeting government standards, i.e.a seat taking into account the physical characteristics of children such as lack of physical resistance (compared to adults) due to diminished body proportions a higher center of gravity with most of the body weight located above the waist which, in a car crash, causes the body to be thrown forward abruptly Rolls of fat in the pelvic area make proper fitting of the parachute-type harness difficult an upward slide under the impact could cause serious internal injuries - Not being fully developed, the lower spine of the child cannot help keep the parachute-type harness in place The child’s head is proportionately heavier than the rest of the body and increases the whiplash effect on the neck The skueleton has a lower blow resistance than that of an adult Con sequently, the force of the impact must be spread out over the entire body of the child This is achieved by the protective shell of car safety seats Many parents still consider the seats as some sort of straight jacket rather than safety device Iastallation instructions are to be strictly observed An improperly anchored seat will not prevent the child from being thrown against the windshield risking senous injury, even death Installation instructions must be followed scrupulously, especially where tether strap(s) or rear anchor provided Your child's safety depends entirely on proper anchoring Do not install child safety seat on bucket-type car seat «or seat with forward reclining back-rest) unless safety lock provided All seats featured here meet Canadian Government safety standards Æ /WES Founded 1889

found a spider in his paper, and asked if this was an omen of good or bad luck.Twain replied: "Findinp a spider in your paper is neither flood nor had luek.The spider teas merely looking over our paper to see which merchant leas not advertising so that he could fio to that store, spin his tveh across the door, and lead a life of undisturbed peace ever afterward.” THE SHERBROOKE RECORD will

been inhabited for only 40 years The total population consisted of 1500 struggling colonists trying to make a living by growing tobacco They lived in lath-and-plaster shacks covered by palmetto thatch roofs, which could be counted on to collapse in high winds Yet those early Bermudians built beautiful wood furniture of surprising sophistication and artistry mon item was storage chests on legs or a low frame.” “On these chests the artisans used peculiar dovetailing at the joints The designs of the dovetails are very intricate We think this may have been the way in which specific workmen ‘signed’ their work It is a distinctively Bermudian characteristic and it leaps out at you When you see the dovetailing you know it is a Bermudian piece ” Bermudian antique fur niture and Silver.” speculates on how the skills developed “A self reliance developed from want and usually when a young man courted and planned to marry he then built his own house and furniture with help from family and friends ” “Perhaps the connection is through shipwrights.” theorises Cooke “The first carpenters in Bermuda were ship builders Some of the JL Many pieces of authentic Bermuda cedar furniture have become priceless treasures, such as the tea table on display in an island museum.The table, built circa 1740, is considered one of the finest pieces of furniture made on the island from Bermuda cedar.Cedar, a tight grained and oily wood, doesn’t rot in humid, damp climates and termites tend to shun it.Hence, its value among Bermudian furniture makers of two centuries ago.Their primitive homes were often stocked with Bermudian-made chairs, tables, cupboards and chests that are still in use more than 300 years later - and highly valued as antiques.“There is a substantial amount of Bermuda antique furniture around the island,” says local appraiser Colin Cooke “Most of it is still in use in the old homes The pieces are definitely provincial and sometimes unsophisticated, but quite remarkable.” Cooke, a 40-year-old furniture restoration specialist, is perhaps the leading expert on Bermudian antique furniture With his equally knowledgeable partner Sylvia Shorto, Cooke runs a furniture restoration and appraisal firm in picturesque Flatts Village, Bermuda.Ms Shorto, who began as an apprentice to Cooke and rose to full partnership, admits to being enthusiastic about, and fascinated by, Bermudian antiques “Bermudians made their own furniture for at least 200 years,” she points out.“During those centuries furniture making underwent many styles, periods and evolutions.Bermuda furniture reflects these changing fashions, yet it is still distinctive.There is a definite Bermuda style.Bermuda furniture is readily recognizable.” “For instance, one com- niture reached its apogee with Queen Anne style.In the late 19th century, production began to drop off Imported furniture became a status symbol By the beginning of the 20th century, Bermuda furniture-making had largely died out “We really know very little about how this furniture came to be,” Cooke admits.“We don’t know why such a high degree of skill developed here nor why it developed so soon in Bermuda's history We also are unable to attribute the pieces to any specific craftsmen, except in isolated cases.” Author and furniture expert Bryden B Hyde, in his authoritative book, “Bermuda’s Antique Fur- earliest Bermuda houses clearly show features taken from ship architecture and design These highly skilled carpenters could have made such furniture and taught others.” One known factor influencing the development of Bermuda’s furniture industry was the abundance of an ideal source of wood for the purpose - the endemic Bermuda cedar Juniperus Bermudiana This large, tight-grained member of the juniper family served the islanders in many capacities Durable, sturdy, with great tensile strength, it was used to build the sleek Bermuda ships that soon plied the Atlantic trade Panant vows fare war ‘fight to finish' LONDON (AP) — Pan American Airways has vowed to maintain its price struggle with Freddie Laker’s Skytrain “as long as he does.” Pan Am chairman William Seawell told a news conference Monday he has no intention of increasing Pan Am fares.During Skytrain's inaugural flight last week Laker maintained that by next spring the major U S.airlines, now trying to meet Skytrain’s low transatlantic prices, will go back “to their & AUTHI PROCEEDS FROM EVERY BKMACSOLDONWHMESDM, 00066)12 GOTOHELPOOPPLED CMUMEN M OUR COMMUMTY.routes Cedar beams sup ported bridges and structured buildings The berries from the cedar were even used to create a distinctive and potent local liquor And it was used to build fur niture “Bermuda cedar - the wood used in most of Ber muda s antique furniture is a very tough wood,” says Ms Shorto “For one thing the feet usually do not rot.even after hundreds of years on damp Bermuda stone floors For another, termites tend to leave it alone The cedar is oily and tightly grained The pieces brought to us for restoration run the gamut from total ruin to almost nothing needed, but m general they are in good shape ” nasty old ways and put fares up ” “One way or the other,” said Seawell, “we still hope, and to some extent believe, that we will prove the budget fare is viable If so, we will clearly intend to expand them elsewhere.” Seawell, attending a Pan Am board meeting, also said his company has no intention of either buying or leasing the Anglo-French supersonic Concorde, even if it gains landing rights in New York PROFIT REPORTED Earlier Monday, Laker Airways said the low-fare, sameday service between London and New York made a profit in its first week of operations A company spokesman said Skytrain grossed about $377,482 (U S.) with service much brisker from the United States than from London Skytrain costs $105.25 (US.) for a one-way flight from London to New York A flight the other way costs about $135 Pan Am.Trans World Air lines and British Airways have responded to Laker’s Skytrain challenge by offering cheap stand-by flights between New York and London that cost just $8.75 more than Skytrain A regular economy roundtrip flight costs $626.compared with Skytrain’s roundtrip fare of $238 25 Laker Airway’s figures showed Skytrain flew at 70.5-per-cent capacity last week—243 seats aboard the 345-seat

My daughter 39 and mother of three children developed Cushing's syndrome She grew facial hair developed a moon face heavy body fat dry flaky skin She recently had surgery and the doctors removed both of her adrenal glands 1 am told she will have to take cortisone orally Will the symptoms of facial hair, moon face and obesity disappear0 We were told by her doctors that without surgery she would have lived one year What causes this problem0 DEAR READER - The picture you have described is caused by an over production of hormones from the adrenal cortex, the outer shell of the adrenal gland that produces cortisone Surgery is commonly used in treatment of such patients If both adrenal glands are removed entirely the patient does have to take cortisone the rest of his or her life It is replacement therapy since the normal source of cortisone has been removed The obesity should reverse itself and the fat pads over the upper face that cause the moon face appearance should disappear, as well as the excess hair growth and other signs of Cushing’s syndrome The outlook depends a lot on what the real cause for the over production of adrenal cortical hormones was This is a rare disease but it points up the role that hormones have on obesity The characteristic obesity of Cushing's syndrome involves the trunk of the body and face while it spares the arms and legs The legs may be quite skinny while the abdomen may become quite large The hormones influence the areas involved in the obesity DEAR DR LAMB - I have what my doctor calls a “Baker’s cyst ” It gives me a great deal of pain and I have a problem trying to be comfortable with my leg whether riding, walking, or lying in bed I have quite a bit of stiffness in my knee after I have ridden in a car for a while My doctor has advised that the last thing I should do is to have surgery unless the pain becomes unbearable He says surgery will leave me with a stiff knee Since I am only 48 I most certainly would hate to go through the rest of my life that way The advice he has given me is to favor my leg as much as possible, and to take a towel and wet it in hot water, wring it out and apply it to my knee Can you suggest anything else0 DEAR READER - A Baker’s cyst is just the normal fluid in the knee joint that has escaped and become encapsulated in a sac-like structure of tissue They are com-mmonly painless, unless there is associated disease in the knee joint Your story suggests to me that you may have more than just a Baker's cyst and probably have some disease of your knee joint to begin with In any case I think you should insist on an evaluation by an orthopedic specialist If it is something he can help you with he will tell you and also what the risks might be DEAR DR LAMB - My problem is my baggy eyes I have been told that these bags under the eyes are caused from lack of sleep I would like to know if this is the only cause for it I have had it for four years now and I’m beginning to think that it will never go away Is it possible to get rid of it0 How0 DEAR READER - Lack of sleep is not a cause for “bags under the eyes.” nor is dissipation The cause depends on what you mean by bags under the eyes If fluid accumulates around the eye in the loose skin it is more often associated with lying down Swelling occurs in dependent parts of the body That is why people develop swelling of the feet and ankles At night the head is at the same level as the heart and swelling of the face occurs Look around you and you will notice people tend to have more swelling around the eyes — “puf-finess” — in the morning than in the evening A more common cause of “bags under the eyes” is a gradual enlargement of the normal fat pad just under the lower eyelid These become more prominent as a person gets older This can be surgically removed This works when that is the problem Dr Lamb answers representative letters of general interest in his column.Write to him in care of this newspaper, PO.Box 1551, Radio City Station, New York, NY 10019 The Hut Army, Navy & Airforce Unit 318 DANCE Saturday Night Oct.8th Nutbrown's Orchestra *#* Members & Guests Welcome Welcome To The NORTON Rte.114 Norton, Vt.Adults $1.75 Children Under 12 FREE Concession Playground * ** Sat.Sun.Oct.8 9 BLACK SUNDAY “Most suspenseful thriller'' Robert Shaw Bruce Dern Restricted In Color Plus Cartoon Not suitable for pre-teenagers.Please leave them home.c»»*ne a THE CHALET INC.Birchton DANCE Saturday, Oct.8 Orchestra THE COUNTRYMEN BUCK AND DOE RESTAURANT SPECIAL WELCOME TO OUR CANADIAN FRIENDS DINNER SPECIALS DAILY 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) 12) 8:00 p.m.9) A Cause De Mon Oncle 8) San Pedro Beach Bums 3) Young Dan’l Boone 5) Laugh in 6) Betty White Superb Food-Impeccable Service "A REALLY NICE PLACE TO EAT” s MODERN DECOR RESERVATIONS APPRECIATED OPEN YEAR ROUND !
