There are also dams run to power industry, such as the Dominion Textile Dam on the Magog With new importance placed on energy needs, existing Townships dams will likely be maintained even though many others have closed down through the years There are no plans to develop or redevelop more dams Let s take a swing down the Townships' most developed river hvdroelectricallv speaking, the Magog It’s only 22 miles long and drops 250 feet from the city of Magog to Sherbrooke There are seven dams along the way First there is the Dominion Textile dam three miles from the headwaters at Lake Memphremagog The dam was built by the industry in 1904 and provides about 1,500 kw of power for the plant That same year Dominion Textile built the next dam which is further downriver and which is owned by Magog It produces 1,200 kw and is seen near Omerville from Route 55, the Autoroute extension With it Magog produces 15 per cent of its power while the other 85 is bought from Hydro-Quebec Hydro-Sherbrooke's dams begin further downriver at Rock Forest never believed it would go under and FF w ould stand the lasses a lot longer CLOSING A TRAGFDN In a statement to employees.Art Wood,

to pin the blame "It’s the bottom-line boys They couldn't make her pay up right away so they killed her.” Walter is a professional journalist of the old school, a graduate of 30 years at the Gazette and then the Star He remembers when the Star was THE afternoon paper in Montreal And he watched the trend away from the feet up in the-evening kind of reading “Now it’s everybody with This Morning’s

Federal Welfare Minister David Crombie says the government's throne speech next month will announce a review of private and federal pensions for the elderly.Crombie told a meeting of the national pensioners’ and senior citizens’ federation he is concerned that private pension plans do not contain cost-of-living adjustments He said inflation can cut the amount a pensioner receives in half within 10 years Crombie said he is not sure what form the proposed changes will take, but his ministry is committed to carrying out a review of all public and private pensions The income security field will need considerable renovation in the 1980s and 1990s, he added Crombie noted that 50 per cent of Canada’s pensioners receive the guaranteed income supplement, meaning that a large number of

BUILDING MONTREAL (( F) The Gazette wants to move quickly within two months into the building of its defunct English language rival.The Star, which ceased publication Tuesday Gazette publisher Robert McConnell said the main reason was that his newspaper, now the city’s only English daily, needed The Star’s more modern printing presses But McConnell also said he hoped that, under the terms of a special agreement, The Star could reopen within a year under new management and ownership “The interest quite simply is keeping a second English editorial voice going in Montreal,” he said in a telephone interview He was commenting on an agreement, concluded shortly before The Star’s closure, between the defunct paper’s owner, FF Fublications Ltd , and Southam Inc , which owns The Gazette Sunny and warm Rights a priority9 Flora tells UN UNITED NATIONS 'CP) — Canada is not without blemish when it comes to human rights problems.External Affairs Minister Flora MacDonald said Tuesday In fact, she said at a news conference, if the UN heeds her call to appoint a deputy undersecretary for human rights.Canada might indeed be the subject of an investigation Miss MacDonald made the call for an undersecretary for rights in her first address to the General Assembly In the past, similar proposals for a high commissioner for human rights have gone unheeded at the UN because many countries might be embarrassed if hauled on the carpet for their treatment of their citizens “I don't mean, in putting this for ward, to preach at other countiies in the world.” Miss MacDonald told reporters “If one were to look at Canada, and its record of human rights, we have some very real problems with regard to the problems of Indian women “It may be that one of the first issues that an undersecretary for human rights might want to look into is the situation with regard to Indian women in Canada ” In her first speech to the 152-member body.Miss MacDonald hit the human rights theme hard She chided the international com munity for being reluctant or “culpably slow” to condemn rights violations “These crimes against humanity arc common knowledge,” she said A high pressure system

Tibet with Chinese w hen the vast region txirdermg on India is brought out of the Middle Ages into modern times Tibet is about the size of Quebec but has less than one third its population Trudeau had just returned from the region when he met with Deng for two hours China took over Tibet in 1951 two years after the late Chinese leader Mao Tse-tung founded the PoorI# i Republic He told reporters after the meeting The Peking government is obviously doing a lot to bring Tibet into the modern times out of the Middle Ages What happens when they succeed0 Will they also have succeeded in getting Tibetans to consider themselves part of China0 Or with higher education and development will Tibetans say.We don t want to belong to anybody Why can t we be independent0 * Trudeau said he would have

part of the trend in North America “Just look at Le Jour and Montreal-Mat in Le Jour , an independence-minded Montreal daily, collapsed just months before the November, 1976 election that brought the Parti Québécois to power, while the daily tabloid Montreal Matin ceased publication last year Levesque had frequently clashed with The Star over its strongly anti PQ editorial stance The premier, a

could resume operations He said an agreement has been reached between FP Publications Ltd and Southam Inc .owner of the rival Gazette, “in which they agree to evaluate the possibility of resuming publication of The Star if The Gazette is able to move its operations to The Star building .” The paper had 969 employees and paid circulation in August of about 114,000.The morning Gazette, the underdog until the pressmen’s strike, was selling about 168,000 newspapers a day in mid September Wood’s statement said: “In 1976 «The Star) earned pre tax profits amounting to $5.7 million, the highest in the paper's history Up to the strike, on June 14, 1978.The Star s earnings were approximately $2 6 million, well on the way to another record year " But, Wood said, the strike cost the newspaper $7 million and since resumption of publication last Feb 12, "losses have totalled an additional $10 4 million ” The paper lost $2 million in August and since resumption of publication last Feb 12, “losses have totalled an additional $10 4 million ” He added that projected pretax losses for 1979 were $18 7 million Despite the impact of the strike, Wood said he felt no ill will toward the union He said $10 2 million in advances from FP to keep the “virtually bankrupt ’ Star afloat imperiled the newspaper chain's entire operations W(X)d said he did not take part in negotiations between FP and Southam News Briefs which led to the agreement that gives Southam a three-year option to acquire the bulk of Star assets, including its relatively-modern presses and its sleek, carpeted newsroom, completely refurbished and computerized while the strike halted all other operations But Southam said it does not propose to exercise the option until after The Star completes arrangements with its unions and reaches termination agree ments with all employees affected by the closing “A separate part of the agreement extends an option to FP to purchase one-third of the equity in the Gazette operation,” Southam said “This will allow FP continued par ticipation in the market and facilitate the revival of The Star as an editorially-independent daily newspaper should market

financial analysis that showed sharable and non sharable expenses as opposed to the auditor's overall picture lowered that sum to $185.733 Hospital General Manager Earl Gould told The Record that for a hospital to find itself in a deficit situation was not an uncommon occur rence in the province at this time He said the hospital did have some measures in mind to try and correct the situation, but that he could not go into detail on the plans at this time Three criteria that the hos pital has been examining in relation to its operation are' whether the hospital is in the proper Ministry of

Cultural Affairs Minister Denis Vaugeois will clarify the Ministry’s position on the building of a regional museum, in a letter to be sent to concerned regional groups this week MNA Gerard Gosselin said the letter would deal with many cultural groups’ concerns that they w ill be excluded from the museum planification Three weeks ago, assistant Deputy Minister Pierre Boucher told the cultural groups a team of museumologists would work solely with the Seminary Museum Corporation in building and planning the museum to a life of relative inactivity to do things on their own and judging from the response of the eighteen people who had finished the course, it works.The Red Cross trains monitors from any organization in order to make this program available to anyone at minimal cost While young, a lack of flexibility can be a nuisance and a cause of injury.W hen older, it can limit one’s lifesty le.Even mild exercise under these circumstances would seem to be a good idea.Housing to be

Electricity, they inform me.was discovered about 2500 years ago when an ancient Greek rubbed a piece of amber with his thumb and found it attracted bits of straw, paper, pith, lint .md other light trash I believe, however, that they exaggerate Nobody did anything else, they continue to inform me, for two thousand years and then William Gilbert wrote a book on this mysterious power of fossilized resin and christened that power electricity’ after the ancient ( ire»*k s word for amber Then Luigi Galvam hung a dead frog fi a copper hook, touched its toes wi;i an electrified rod and was ab- solutely flabbergasted to see the frog kick The tremendous significance of this discovery can not lie over estimated but it still left a great many questions unanswered Where, for example, did he get the dead frog'' Or was the frog alive and kicking in its natural habitat when he came across it and did he cause it by drastic methods to become dead just so he could carry it home, show it to his wife and perform his dastardly experiment?Space (and ignorance) dictate that these (and other) questions go unan swered (and unasked) while we examine Symmer’s socks Summer had the habit of wearing two pairs of socks in cold weather one pair of white silk and another over them of black wool It was an odd habit, agreed, hut in no way perverted Then, one cold dry day he drew- off his socks for a reason odd hut in no way perverted and noticed static electricity made them retain the shape of his foot And what is much worse when he touched those charged socks together, they discharged into each other and collapsed’ From this he deduced that there were two sorts of elec-tricity - black and white or.as they were afterwards named.Negative and Positive Despite the enormous importance of his socks, Symmer today lies in his grave forgotten by almost everyone but me Even I can t remember his first name But space is short and we must hurry on through Volta’s discovery of the battery and Sir Humphrey Davy’s discovery of current to Michael Faraday’s discovery of magnetoelectric induction When somebody once asked Sir Humphrey Davy what his greatest discovery was, he answered: “Michael Faraday!” Michael Faraday’s greatest discovery - after the polarity of diamagnetics and the relation of diamagnetism to crystalline forces -was “esoteric jargon” without which modern engineering would be impossible Then came Ampere and Ohm and Franklin’s kite and Alexander Graham’s hell and Edison’s light bulb and eventually the apex of American ingenuity and affluence - electric deodorant.It is no longer love but electricity which makes the world go round Quebec is fortunate in having an ample supply for many years to come but that doesn’t mean we should deny those less fortunate the benefit of our advice on solving their problems Personally, I think Galvam missed out on a very good thing The spastic kick of a dead frog may very well be the answer to their current «no pun intended» dilemma If we could ensure a sufficient supply of the creatures, harness them in parallel and jolt them all together with a battery, we may yet reach the moon I don’t know about you, but I’m starting my collection of dead frogs right away.Might even manage to corner the market.So if anyone out there has any dead frogs they’re not using, would they please send them to the author in care of this newspaper?Whodunit Now that the Montreal Star has folded and The Gazette declared the winner in one of the bitterest circulation v.arb in ( ’anadian journalistic history, the hlame game begins.\\ ho killed the Star?We all did, from Rene Levesque to the gu\ next door who moved his family out to Alberta.FP Publications did it The unions held the gun and The Gazette pulled the trigger.Lazy, paycheque-oriented journalists and unimaginative management played lead roles.All that remains is the Star is dead, 1.300 people are out of work and St.Antoine Street has a new piece of vacant real estate.It may not be for long.The Gazette, a smaller, far more streamlined operation w ho know s w hat it is to he number two and trying harder, would dearly love to move into the Star building.The move would make sense, since the seven-month strike period last fall was used to install some of the industry’s most advanced computer equipment.They say Quebecor publisher Pierre Peladeau is toying with the notion of bringing out a tabloid to compete with the Gazette, and what better wav to do it than with the old Star - Herald legend?There’s an old saw in Montreal newspaper circles that anyone who hopes to publish an English-language tabloid had better make it a morning paper, had better have the best columnists money can buy - and must have $7 million to drop into it The few examples of tab dailies since the Herald was put down in 1957 tend to prove this.Who has ever heard of the Montreal Mirror, the Daily Express or the Montreal Record?All pitiful examples of failed dreams and lost money.The Star was something else again.An institution.One of the very few ( anadian dailies with an international reputation.A big, fat afternoon newspaper that successfully bucked the trend away from afternoon newspapers for years - until that strike.It was a stupid strike in some ways, hut it was over a universal bugbear — automation.The pressmen saw themselves as the vanguard of the resistance to management whims to replace this worker with that piece of machinery, and if they hadn’t walked out, the composing room would have.Hut it was more complicated than that.Southam and I P.C anada's two biggest newspaper chains, are involv ed in long-term planning which sees the gradual disappearance of evening dailies and their replacement with the fruitful morning papers.Monday’s switch of the FP* owned Ottawa Journal from afternoon to morning is a clear indication of FP’s way of thinking.Quebec’s English-language community didn’t need to suffer the blow to the morale that the closure of the Star has dealt this close to the referendum.The Star’s people didn’t need more economic woes this soon after a financially-crippling strike.But it all depends on how one views a newspaper, as a business or as an institution.If a business, the Star’s death w as a mercy killing.If an institution.it was murder.JAMES 1)1 EE Sino-Soviet talks aim at eastern detente WASHINGTON (CP) The arrival of a high-ranking Chinese delegation in Moscow for talks aimed at reconciling differences with the Soviet Union comes at a time when relations between the two giants have seldom been more strained Even as the Chinese diplomatic team was getting ready for the Moscow trip.the two Communist countries were exchanging accusations about their motives But while there are few in dications that the talks will yield early success, analysts say the willingness of the two countries to explore their bitter differences is significant The talks are the first major, high-level attempt in almost 15 years at holding detailed discussions on the ideological and political differences that have split the two countries for two decades A high Chinese delegation visited Moscow in 1964 after the fall from power of Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev, whose de-St al ini zat ion { vi* « A V V 4 V X fefWCMl of 6 Vmo Txn ' *Q r policies and industrial tactics were denounced by the Chinese TROOPS CLASH But talks with the new leadership of Leonid Brezhnev and Alexei Kosygin came to nothing The split deepened in 1969 when Soviet troops clashed with Chinese along the border.Since then, both sides have maintained as many as one million troops in combat readiness on the border while holding sporadic and fruitless diplomatic negotiations In the last year, the level of acrimony has been rising as a result of such developments as the toppling of a Peking-backed government in Cambodia by the Soviet Union’s Vietnamese allies, and the subsequent Chinese invasion of Vietnam Soviet worries about China’s interests in Asia have also been heightened by a new warmth in relations between China and Japan, including the signing of a treaty that contains a clause implicitly opposing Soviet expansion in Asia And the establishment of diplomatic relations last December between China and the United States may have sent some shivers of concern through the Soviet leadership The Soviet party newspaper Pravda at the time charged that China was establishing the relations in an attempt to create a broad front against the Soviet Union and expand Chinese domination in Asia The theme was renewed during the weekend when Soviet media bitterly denounced China and the U.S., accusing them of manipulation and trickery in the United Nations, which voted last week to allow the Peking-backed government of Pol Pot to continue to For 110 years, Star prestige served Montreal MONTREAL (CP) — In 1869, Montreal was a city of 100,000 inhabitants and nine newspapers four English and five French But that didn’t scare two brash young men, Hugh Graham and George T Lanigan, from betting they could publish the “best daily paper in Canada.” On Jan 16.1869.The Evening Star began publication Later it was to become the Montreal Star, and carried on as one of Canada’s largest and best known newspapers for 110 years The paper died Tuesday, a victim of multimillion dollar losses and a circulation war On that first day, four reporters crammed into a cubby hole, news was written by-hand.and compositors set type by candlelight The first issue of 3,0(H) copies sold out The paper's circulation rose within six months to 5,000 copies a day.the largest in the city By 1878 the paper, now known as the Montreal Daily Star, had grown to be the largest in Canada Under Graham’s hand, the paper undertook a series of campaigns for clean government and public propriety Graham was now a bona fide newspaper baron, beginning The Standard in 1905.The Herald, a laotoui winch lasted until 1957, as well as The Family Herald and The Weekly Star BECAME LORD The rise in The Star’s fortunes was accompanied by the publisher's increasing m k»- ?- personal wealth and influence and in 1917 Graham was named Lord Atholstan With Atholstan's death in 1938, businessman J W McConnell took over as publisher Although the paper's style changed, it remained prosperous The once controversial and staunchly Conservative paper became conservative with a small “c” and McConnell was more reluctant than Atholstan to use the newspaper as a direct instrument of reform During the 15 years the elder McConnell was publisher, conservatism became deeply-ingrained in the paper, and it was several years after John G.McConnell took over that the paper became more progressive in its outlook In 1973.publisher Derek Price — a Quebec City native named publisher in 1970 — announced The Star and the Montreal Standard Publishing Company Ltd were amalgamating with FP Publications The FP group included the Vancouver Sun.Toronto Globe and Mail, Winnipeg Free Press.Ottawa Journal and others The newspaper experienced its first serious labor difficulties in 1975.when editorial employees walked off the job, shutting down production for five weeks In April.1978.composing room employees without a contract since June.1977, staged slowdowns and delayed production of the newspaper several times The question of technological change the introduction of computerized typesetting systems which threatened to result in staff cut hacks was the central issue in the contract dispute On June 15.1978.The Star's 90 press operators, members of the International Printing and Graphic Communications Union.walked off their jobs, and the eight-month strike that was eventually to lead to the newspaper's death began Another 200 composing room employees, affiliated with the International Typographical Union bargained jointly with the pressmen, hut did not consider themselves on strike And 500 editorial, circulation, advertising and delivery employees, members of the New spaper Guild, were laid off They never officially joined the strike, but were also bargaining for a new contract The long labor dispute ended Feb 7, 1979 ATTRACT READERS The Star reappeared on the newsstands Feb 12 and began a multi-media blitz to attract readers who had switched to the rival Gazette The Gazette’s circulation had soared from 120.000 to 200.000 copies a day during the strike and once The Star was hack, the two newspapers became involved in a heated war.including front page color photos, contests, slashed advertising rates, giveaways, new comic strips and more features But as the summer advanced.The Star was still behind The Gazette Pre-strike circulation of 170.000 had fallen to about 114.000 William A Goodson.who had been president of Montreal Star Ltd since 1973.and publisher since 1977.was the first to feel the blow On Aug 20.he announced his resignation andwas to last less than two months represent Cambodia in the General Assembly While recent Chinese activities in the international arena have provoked such rhetoric in the Soviet media, they have also forced Moscow to look at the possibilities for altering the state of Soviet Chinese relations, and to examine ways of ensuring that China’s new ties with the W’est don’t leave the Soviet Union isolated There have been changes inside China, too.Following the death of Mao Tse-tung.China has taken on massive industrial expansion, somewhat akin to the Khrushchev policy so bitterly denounced by China Both sides apparently sensed an opportunity to reassess the state of relations when China decided it would not approve a five-year extension of the Sino-Soviet friendship treaty.While the two countries have agreed to the talks, the backdrop of mistrust suggests the process of reconciliation will be long and difficult.Letters Good reason Editor: There is a good reason why drivers often ignore the flashing lights on school buses commanding them to stop Because if they do stop, they are condemned to drive indefinitely behind the bus, and stopping when the bus stops again and again, until both part company and go their different ways.If there could be instituted a procedure by which the bus, after the children are safely out of the way and lights switched off, would stav stationary for a few seconds, and would give the stopped drivers a chance to continue BEFORE the bus drives off, the people would be less reluctant to obey the law But usually happens is that the bus drives off the moment it ceases flashing its lights and the unhappy trapped motorist is forced, as outlined above, to follow the bus including all his stops, as the chances to pass are very rare A.HOLT.Windsor Discrimination Editor : Following is a letter to the Hon R.G Atkey, Federal Minister of Employment and Immigration Dear Ron.As you have heard from countless other places, there is a general uproar in Quebec that the Unemployment Insurance Commission is refusing benefits to citizens of Quebec on the basis that they are unable to work be cause they do not speak French Imagine, there are more anglophones in Quebec than there are in all but four provinces of Canada, and we are declared ineligible for benefits because of an inability to speak French Most of the employers in this province are anglophone and yet a unilingual employee is discriminated against if his or her language is English Francophones cannot be denied benefits because Bill 101 precludes refusal for employment because they can’t speak English Unemployment Insurance is contributory and the unemployed person has paid for that coverage in her contributions Refusal to pay those benefits is overt flagrant discrimination I would suggest strongly that the civil servant responsible for this decision be investigated and if necessary, his employment terminated Maybe then he would understand firsthand the callousness of his ex-depart ment As it is.my investigators are finding that hiring and placement practices in your department are also discriminating against anglo phones At present, accord ing to your Official Lang-guages Plan 1978 - 81, 33.2 per cent of the staff are “French mother tongue”, where only 24.1 per cent of the Canadian population is “French mother tongue”, and in spite of this, your department is still hiring francophones at the rate of 2-1 over anglophones.This clearly shows a hiring and placement policy which not only discriminates against the anglophone in Quebec, but in Canada in general The Liberal Party has left you with a can of worms.Hiding behind the noble goal of the provision of services in both official languages, the Bilingualism Program has systematically taken over the majority of positions for bilinguals, but unfortunately this has also become French mother tongue bilingual.They have succeeded in your department alone of taking 33.2 per cent of the posts, suggesting a need for equitable representation, while in Quebec the posts held by non “French mother tongue” employees is now less than 2.61 per cent, hardly proportional to the 18 9 per cent of the population we represent 1 suggest a full ministerial enquiry into this situation so that some justice can be seen As long as the civil service in Quebec is de-ang licized, there will always be suspicion that a case such as Mrs Lewis

average 88 kilometres daily for about 185 school days a year a total of more than 585 million kilometres The council hopes the safety week campaign also will help focus attention on the question of who is responsible for children during the travel Many parents feel their responsibility ends when the child boards a school bus.the council says, whereas school authorities tend to feel they are not

another in their structure and origin True horns are found on ruminant animals (sheep, cattle, goats, etc ) and consist of sheaths of keratinized < hardened.almost plastic-like) epidermis that fit tightly around a core of bone arising from the skull Horns are a permanent feature of the adult animal except for pronghorn antelope from the southern prairies of Alberta and Saskatchewan These animals shed the hardened sheaths once a year in late fall leaving the bony cores exposed upon which new horn sheaths will grow’ and be fully formed by the following July Horns also differ from antlers in that the former are not branched and are found on both sexes Some horned animals such as mountain sheep can be aged by counting the annual growth rings on their horns These markings do not exist on antlers Antlers are to be found on members of the deer family (Cervidae) which includes white-tailed deer, moose, caribou, elk, etc When fully developed, antlers are composed entirely of bone, are branched, are shed once a year and.except for caribou, are found only on males The annual cycle of antler growth and shedding is under hormonal control In the spring, secretions from the pituitary gland (found at the base of the brain» are triggered by the increasing daylength and these substances initiate antler growth in April or May During growth, antlers are covered by ‘velvet’, fur covered skin with a large blood supply This blood carries nutrients (such as calcium' to the antlers as they are growing In autumn, sex hormones from the developing testes inhibits action of the pituitary antler growth hormone and this leads to the velvet drying up At this time, males rub and thrash their antlers against bushes causing the dried velvet to be torn away, leaving the bony antlers exposed These are bloody ai first from the remnants of the velvet’s blood supply, but they soon become clean and polished by constant contact with the vegetation After the breeding period rut' is over in early winter, the testicular sex hormone levels decrease and this causes a removal of calcium from the antlers at the point 1 pedicel » where they attach to the skull bones This décalcification results in a weakness at the pedicel and the antlers gradually fall off.leaving the animals antlerless until a new cycle commences in early spring Horns and antlers are both used for defense and offense, but antlers in particular have an important function in interactions between males during the breeding season The strongest, most vigorous males usually have the largest antlers and they use these to good advantage in combats (ritualized or real with other males over females or breeding territories Visa leads plastic money race into China HONG KONG AP) — The ultimate symbol

education office at Alexander Galt looks like any other phys^fd office at first glance Hut, after five minutes there, it’s easy to tell that there is definitely something very different From the gray walls of the Galt gym there consistently emerges provincial level sports teams The success of the local teams is not solely due to the abilities of athletics director Don Caldwell and his staff hut to a host of volunteer coaches, the support of the administration and the regional school board The athletics program at Alexander Galt is three tiered.Caldwell explained in a recent interview The first level involves the iastructional program, which is up to par with most other public schools in the province All students at the high school must participate in the program unless they have a medical exemption The main aim of this level of instruction is to teach the students skills that they will, hopefully, be able to use later in their lives The second tier of the program involves intramural or interhouse competition in the sports taught in the phys-ed classes This provides a chance for everybody, regardless of ability, to try out the skill acquired during classes Most activities take place at noon hour and students are placed on teams according to their respective houses This phase of the program hasn’t worked out as well as planned, CaldweÜ said, because of low turnout to the events The students who do participate, however, have a good time and are able to learn a lot Only the upper ten per cent of the students get a chance to participate in the third level of the athletics program This involves being a member of one of Galt’s many inter scholastic teams It is in this area that Alexander Galt excels, entering as many teams as possible and consist ently winning or placing well in local and provincial com petition.To have a well rounded athletics program, the school should have a fourth level, Caldwell said.An adaptive program catering to the needs of students who have poor motor skills or are very overweight The athletic director recognizes that this is the main weakness of the program ; however, the present timetable leaves no time for such classes.Special consideration has been given to these students, and if an instructor is approached individually, he or she may work out a special arrangement for the student in question INTERSCHOLAST1C SPORTS If size is any indication, the sports program at Galt is very successful The aim of the staff appears to be involvement of as many students as possible on as many teams as possible The department is willing to run a max imum number of teams in as far as the budget and coaching staff will allow Several members of the Galt academic staff offer their time to coach any extra teams that are needed DON < ALDYYEI I.AGRHS athletics’ director.Sport shorts Record employee wins rally ByCT.At I>IA ROWERS LENNOXVILLE — The Record is harboring a champion That’s right, a champion lady who.with her husband, were the big winners in the Annual Car Rally organized by the Army-Navy-Air Force Association.Lennoxville Elsie and Delbert Mills were awarded the trophy for the best average time in the rally which covered a distance of 135 miles The route travelled through some of the most breathtaking scenery in our immediate area, including the mountains in the Megantic area as well as the lake itself It is unfortunate that so many travel so far in search of scenery, which entices them on travel brochures, when one can be just as saturated with nature and her fall fashion show of colors by taking a look in their own back yard Sunday’s rally saw 38 cars entered into the competition and, as the racing aspect of rallying was ignored, many drivers brought not only their navigators but their family as well Stops to enjoy scenery were encouraged and, at the Hut', the final destination, hot dogs and corn-on-the-cob awaited the hungry travelers Congratulations are extended to all winners especially to the Mills family.Elsie has been employed by the Record for some time and we are proud of our champion Or ford golfer wins tourney SUTTON (ME) Steve Corbiere of Mont Orford won the third annual Ski

Windsor at McMaster Budget doesn’t seem to be much of a problem either Caldwell had nothing but praise for the support the school administration and the school board office has given the program.Within obvious limitations, the board has allocated enough money to the program to keep it going well.Because the teams often compete on a provincial level, transportation could be a problem Practices are held after school and an inadequate bus system could prevent many students from the outlying areas from participating This has been solved with the board’s financial support in running late busses to almost all areas served by Alexander Galt.According to phys-ed teacher Brian Heath, participation of students from rural areas has increased in recent years Caldwell is obviously proud of the accomplishments of the teams which represent the school in competition.And w ith good reason — the large number of teams fielded, the ability of the students and the quality coaching all combine to make Galt one of the best, if not the best public school in interscholastic competition.Heath pointed out that many of the teams are invited to tournaments in Northern Vermont and New Hampshire — even as far away as the Maritimes.When selecting teams to participate in a tournament, he stated, the hosts are looking for teams who will be very competitive and are well known Galt, it appears, has made its mark The athletic department’s philosophy of encouraging high levels of participation at all ages is responsible for this As far as the money and the coaching staff will allow, all students wishing to take part in a sport are given a chance.One example of such application is boys’ basketball coaching The mass program, as Caldwell defines it, was started three years ago Four bantam basketball teams were fielded, allowing almost every boy who tried out to become a part of a team at that level Starting from a w ide base at a young age, Caldwell be lieves by the time the boys reach senior age the ‘‘cream’’ will have risen to the top and the senior team will be very competitive This year’s basketball squad, as a result of this program, will be one of the strongest to come along in years, he predicted A similar program has been taking place in soccer where four bantam teams are provided.In both basketball and soccer, all teams are given a chance to compete against other schools from the area Although this program seems to have been successful for these two sports, it would not be efficient for football because of the expense involved in equipping the players b ootball at Galt is popular onlv on a junior and senior level A few changes have been made this year in the schools which (’.alt will compete against Although they are part of the ETIAC, a league composed of local public and pri vate schools, there has been a trend towards playing teams from Northern Vermont and New Hampshire, especially in soccer and cross country In addition to this, many of the teams participate in local and provincial tournaments with teams from Montreal and other areas RECORD CARRIER WANTED R.44A - Youville O Neil Voudreuil Prospect.*.4*-Elgin, Ontario, Prospect Queen

Quebec PRAISE FOR STUDENTS Caldwell had nothing but praise for the students who take part in the mterscholastic program A great deal of time after school is spent practicing or going on road trips with the teams Almost all teams have student man agers who do the equipment work Although it's not al ways as glamorous as playing on the team, it's every bit as necessary a position Heath cited an example of student enthusiasm On plan mng days when there are no busses running, several teams hold practices and the students have to get to the school by themselves With very fewr exceptions, most students are able to make their way to practice from as far away as Sawyerville and Ayer’s Cliff One of the big disappointments of the interscholastic program, revealed Caldwell, is the support from the community and parents of the players In an effort to rectify this situation, a publicity crew has been appointed to advertise games and promote interest.The schedule has been altered to provide more Friday night games in such sports as basketball with the hopes that members of the local community will support the school teams INSTRUCTION AL PROGRAM FOR ALL The instructional program at Alexander Galt is going through a transition stage and the changes appear to be for the better The aim of the instruction is to provide a progression of useful skills rather than putting the stu dents in a recreational situation In the past, students in the lower levels were presented with a ball, a few basic rules and told to take it from there Not only were they frustrated, but they failed to develop an appreciation for the game In the lower levels, students follow a strict curriculum, with no options As their skills increase and they become older, they have a choice of activities and the teaching becomes more personalized In a new program to be started later this year, students will be divided into homogeneous groups according to physical potential and ability for their instruction periods This, Caldwell believes, will alleviate problems of frustration incurred when students with poor motor skills are grouped with those with high athletic ability.The phys-ed instructors would also find this method more beneficial as they would be dealing with one specific level of ability rather than with all at one time The athletic department also provides a program catered to the special education students at the school The development of large motor skills and the teaching of games involving little concentration is emphasized This program is designed with the individual student in mind and it attempts to provide for all with specialized activities.STRUCTURAL IMPROVEMENTS Several structural changes have taken place in the Galt gym New curtains, which divide the gym into six working areas will alleviate problems of noise and distraction during instructional periods New equipment, including bicycles to test cardio-vascular fitness, have just been received and the department is hoping to order more testing equipment in the near future The gym’s grey stone walls are alowly being painted, creating a warmer, brighter atmosphere, important to student morale.Record photo J u Alexander Galt’s girls’ basketball teams are consistently strong.Last spring, they made it to the provincial finals hut lost out to eventual champions MacDonald High School.Participation is something Galt doesn't lack Throughout the afternoon, eager students stopped by Caldwell’s office, asking to borrow basketballs and other equipment, eager to practise their newly-acquired skills on the new outdoor court.Caldwell summed up the program as follows “To be successful here, more than anything else, the student has to be happy and have fun If they don’t enjoy the program, there’s something wrong with either the teaching or the program itself.” CENTER OF UPHOLSTERY CENTRE DE REMBOURRAGE GILLES INC.Upholstering all types of furniture Free Estimation at home Dealer of

running back David Green has not come w ithout a generous share of bumps and bruises “I never sleep the night after a game,” said the 26-year-old product of Edinboro State, who has emerged as the most devastating rusher in the Canadian Football League this season “My body hurts so badly the night after a game,” Green added, “that I can never find a comfortable position to lie in bed ” There is nothing awkward about his actions on the football field, however, as Green has steamrolled his way to 1,148 yards along the ground in the Alouettes first 11 games If that news isn’t bad enough for opposing defensive squads, they'll be even more disheartened to learn that Green plans to install a whirlpool in his home to soothe his aching bones Combined with his ability to smash bis 194-pound frame through the line of scrimmage.Green should easily attain his pre-season goal of 1.600 yards, which would shatter the club record of A AIOUETTE1 1,520 yards set by George Dixon in 1962 Green arrived in Montreal last season with five regular season games remaining after failing to make the roster of the National Football League's New York Giants WOULD KEEP GREEN “The Giants certainly wouldn't let Green go if he went back to their camp today,” said Montreal head coach Joe Scannella “He is as fast as but much stronger than Boh Hammond and he’s faster than Doug Kotar both of the Giants ” Scannella offered the opinion that Green was unloaded by the Giants because he may not have been ready to fill their immediate needs I have to admit that when Green came to us last year he wasn’t ready to play.’’ said Scannella “We worked with him for many long weeks before judging that he could break into our backfield It happens so often that NFL coaches don’t have time for player development and they choose players capable of helping their team immediately.” Scannella says Green must still polish certain aspects of his game “On handoffs for instance, he moves too heavily in one direction without the aid of a fake.’’ Scannella said.“He gets the ball and he’s gone He’s relying on his strength rather than finesse ” But for the first 11 games of the CFL season, the brute force of their powerful rusher won’t evoke a single word of complaint from the Eastern Conference leading Alouettes "nolo Perry Beaton Last licks on Lac des Nations Even though the water ski

American League Western Division champion California Angels Minnesota manager Gene Mauch commented recently that “no one has played like a champion in this division,” and the Angels’ record isn’t exactly of championship calibre But from owner Gene Autry on down to the hat hov, nobody’s com plaining And while the Angels figure as underdogs against Baltimore in next week's AL playoffs, their offence is potent and their pitching, despite an earned run average in the vicinity of 1 40.is potentially excellent The pitching would have liecn much better had it not l>een for a barrage of injuries But injuries didn’t diminish the Angels offence, which was devastating The team hatting average is more than 280 and the home run total more than 160 The dub leads the majors in runs scored and will finish with nearly 900 and an average of more than five a game The Angels were formed as an expansion team in 1961 and seemed destined to forever dwell in the shadows of their successful

is produced, or lx* fed into a transmission grid " At present, the second-largest cost of centralized generating plants, thermal, nuclear, and hydro alike, is in energy lost over long range transmission When Enosburg Falls Light and Pow er purchases 1050 kilowatts from the St Lawrence River generating plant in Massena.New York, only 795 kilowatts actually arrive The remainder dissi pates, particularly where transmission lines bend, partially breaking the flow of current The 750 kilovolt trans mission lines bringing southern Quebec power from Churchill Falls are widely considered one of the world's great engineering accomplishments, since they lose only 10-15 per cent of their load Jim Leckie, Gil Masters.Harry Whitehouse, and Lily Young further explain the low head energy extraction process in Other Homes and Garbage, published by the Sierra Club “A stream contains two forms of en ergy By virtue of its velocity it has kinetic energy, and by virtue of its ele vation it contains potential energy Kinetic energy means energy already released in motion “The kinetic energy in most streams is not great enough to be useful it is the potential energy be tween two sites of differing elevations that we try to exploit Very simply, the idea is to divert some of the* water from a site upstream, transport it along an elevated conduit, and then let it fall through a waterwheel or hydraulic tur bine located at a lower elevation down stream The turbine or waterwheel turns a generator which produces elec tricity The water then returns to the stream ” Leckie.Masters.Whitehouse.and Young have managed to power individual homes containing all usual electrical appliances with just two inches of water and a ten foot drop According to Shover.water generat- >ears old he tended that first plant He describes how electricity first came to thecit\ m hisUioklet.“Recollections of Sherbrooke’ A demonstration of a new electric arc lamp that < quailed several thousand candlepower had been given Suspended high at the end of Magog bridge, it was powered by the dynamo run by the water wheel at the nearby grist mill (likely wherePaton Mfg was later located) It was such a big im provement over gaslights that the town decided to install an electric power plant Foss continues “There wen* four large water wheels, lour large alter noting current generators and two direct current ball arc generators My job was to sweep out the station, re carlxm the arc lights around the station, keep the oil cups filled on the dynamos and in the winter keep the ice from forming in the flume In very cold weather ice would form on the flume or strainer which was to protect the water wheel from pieces of wood and ice that might cause serious damage When the lights would start to get dim on cold nights.I would have to rush out and with two long steel chisel like tools, break up the ice that was forming Foss earned eight dollars a week, working daily from 6 p m to 7 a m Back to modern times, there is one more dam on the Magog River near where it meets tin* St Francis It was built m 1910 and w as owned by Southern Canada Power Now Hydro-Quebec operates this 55 foot dam which product's 2,256 kw Hydro-Sherbrooke owns three other dams There are two on the upper St Francis the Westbury Dam.two miles from East Angus, built m 1929 and producing 5,000 kw.while two miles from \Ncedon a dam built in 1917 product's 8,000 kw The system's smallest is the Deacon Dam on the ('oatictxik River seven miles from Sherbrooke It is only operated occasionally to help during peak load |x*riods Built in 1903 for the Fust is Mine Co .it produces 350 kw Sherbrooke bought it in 1939 when the copper mine closed Until 1939.Sherbrooke produced all ¦is electricity, Bourassa says.The |x>pulation then was 40.000 Today with the growth in population 15 Photo* Merrill ( Ilf loo Knosburg F alls Eight and Power Co.power plant no.I on the Missisquoi River.ing depends essentially upon the water’s weight where it hits the wheel or turbine With a high water volume, substantial amounts of electricity can be produced from relatively little drop Three feet is generally considered the minimum drop needed for a practical system The greater the drop, the less water can be used Shover describes one plant in Venezuela where just a tiny trickle of water falls some 4.000 feet, enters venturi pipes where gravity compresses it, and shoots out to propel 1 a turbine greater than his Hydro s early years \ 14 — THE SHEHHHOOKE KM OKI» - HKD SEP!
