territory on the east side of the River Jordan KNOWLTON - Aldermen I.Roderick Crandall and Fred Partridge served notice that they would table a motion at the next regular meeting of the Knowlton Town Council calling for the resignation of Mayor Harry Parker, following a stormy special council meeting in the county house, last night.The special meeting was called to either accept or reject the proposal made to amalgamate the villages of Foster, Knowlton and the Township of Brome into a town in the hopes of thwarting any move by Bro-mont to annex the three communities.The proposal was voted by the council members but not carried as Article 56 of the Cities and Towns Act states that there must be a full majority vote of acceptance for amalgamation.A meeting of the joint committees of villages of Foster, Knowlton and the Township of Brome was held March 14 when it was decided in committee that the name of the new municipality, if granted letters patent, would be the town of Brome Lake.During the meeting Mayor Parkes repeatedly said that he did not favor the proposed name.Alderman Romeo Brouillette, who was the sole dissenting voice when the issue was put to a vote, expressed his dislike for the suggested name.The other aldermen present were I.Roderick Crandall.Fred Partridge and Dr.Lome Church.Two other members were absent.Mayor Parkes repeatedly said that he was not against amalgamation \u2014 only the change of name.Several citizens pointed out that the name of Knowlton would be entirely unacceptable to the citizens of Foster and the Township of Brome.They suggesed that the amalgamation issue be settled immediately and if the name of the town of Brome Lake proved unsatisfactory that a referendum be held after letters patent had been issued to alter the name.The citizens committee had placed advertisements in local publications asking for suggested names for the new community.Mayor Parkes alleged that Knowlton had carried the majority as a result of these inquiries and in consequence should be accepted as the name of the new community.It was pointed out from the floor that the joint committee By JOHN MeCAGHEY (Record staff reporter) comprised of three aldermen and the mayors of each community had reviewed the results of the investigation, found them inconclusive and by democratic vote had resolved to propose the name of the town of Brome Lake.Mayor Parkes said that this was unacceptable and the due process of democracy had not been achieved.Dr.A.S.Douglass said that the investigations had only brought in 214 replies from the over 5.000 people of the towns.He said this was hardly representative.Mayor Parker called Mayor L.L.Mizener of Foster to outline the feelings of his citizens.Mayor Mizener said they were primarily concerned with amalgamation, not the name, and would like to urge that the amalgamation be achieved as quickly as possible.There were no representatives from the Township of Brome at the meeting.Foster and the Township of Brome councils are to consider the same proposal by tomorrow.There\u2019s no hope of any further action being taken by Knowlton immediately on the proposed amalgamation as a request to reconsider the proposal will have to be tabled at the next regular council meeting in April regular May sitting.and cannot be heard until the Mayor Parkes said that he would resign prior to amalgamation.Mr Brouillette repeated that he approved the amalgamations but not the name change.Bring in guns SAIGON (AP) - Applying a lesson learned at Dien Bien Phu, the North Vietnamese have brought down highly-mo-bile 3'7-millimetre anti-aircraft guns to attack the aerial supply line to the K.S.marines at Khe Sanh, US military sources said today.BROMPTONVILLE - (Staff! \u2014 Bone-weary mid stubble-chinned men tucked away an 11 p in.supper yesterday confident that the town was \"secure for the night\" and sure that the ice-choked St.Francis River which threatened to flood the town yesterday, would be clear by noon today.Early this morning, a Bromptonville police official reported the river \"was normal\u201d and there was no danger of flooding for now.Ice could jam the river again if there is a heavy rain or snow storm today, according to town officials.Yesterday afternoon.Mayor Dorilas Gagnon issued an order for approximately 1,000 citizens living in the center of tins 3.000 population town to evacuate their homes due to the possible danger of flood waters caused by an ice jam in the river.By yesterday evening the populace was told the danger was over and they could go home.There were reports that some families had evacuated their homes, but phone calls to Les Frères du Sacre Coeur (secondary school) and the Academie du Sacre Coeur didn\u2019t turn up any citizens.A large dynamite blast about 8 p in.yesterday was the first clear signal workmen had gained an upper hand on the ice-jammed river.The blast, set off by a seven-man crew from Brompton-bas-ed Kruger Pulp and Paper Ltd., tore away a 1,000 foot chunk of ice near the dam by the pulp and paper plant, The blast was set off about 3.000 feet east of the Windsor Street bridge where the maior ice jam was located.Alex McDonald, assistant director of civil protection said late last night that a 100-foot wide chan-¦O o' water was flowing swiftly from the bridge over the dam three-quarters of a mile away.A test blast at 5 p.m.gave the first hint to the weary workers on the ice and in the town hall that they just might lick the ice-choked river.Mr.McDonald, who was anchor man for the operation indicated at one point last night that if there were heavy rains during the night and today, a flood situation could result that would parallel the March 20, 1948 flood tragedy.In 1948 flood waters swirled into the downtown section of Bromptonville and rose to the second-storey level of a number of houses.Massive chunks of ice jammed the streets making them impassable.Although no lives were lost in the 1948 flood, many homes were ruined.Mr.McDonald said the true indication that they had gained the upper hand on a possible flood danger came when water retreated back over the river bank in front of the CNR station on St.Joseph Street.The river had overflowed its bank here about 1 p.m.yesterday and had inched its way to the far side of the railroad tracks by 5 p.m The assistant director of civil protection said if the water had come much farther the town hall would have been covered with about 10-feet of water In an hour.The town hall is located in the former river bed and is one of the lowest spots in town Mr.McDonald said the flood-veteran citizens didn't beed the warning to evacuate their homes because the streets remained dry throughout the day.He said they probably wouldn't have budged unless the Soo \"Ice jam\" P«9« f NDP blocks Parliament adjournment OTTAWA (CP) \u2014 Government hopes for an adjournment of Parliament today apparently have been blocked by a persistent NDP campaign aimed at speeding passage of the government drug bill.Health Minister MacEachen, government House leader and one of eight cabinet ministers campaigning for the Liberal leadership, said in an interview Thursday night the outlook Is \u201cbleak\u201d for a quick adjournment.The April 4-fi Liberal convention now is less than two weeks off and the cabinet contenders will have little lime for campaigning ift he House continues to sit next week The government has been trying to clean up supplementary estimates but so far the House has adopted those of only five departments: finance, veterans\u2019 affairs, external affairs, the secretary of state\u2019s office and defence production.Also required is an interim supply vote, to give the government authority to pay its bills during the recess.PROLONG DEBATE The NDP wants the government to call its bill aimed at lowering prescription drug prices before adjournment.But the government has not agreed and the New Democrats have been prolonging debate on supplementary spending in hopes the government will change its mind.Only NDP members spoke in debate Thursday, apart from Defence Production Minister Drury.Stanley Knowles, NDP House leader, told The Canadian Press that \"any reasonable proposition\u201d from the government could bring Commons business to a quick end.But he saw \u201cno strong prospect\u201d of this.It was more likely the Commons would have to sit \u201cfor at least a day or two\u201d next week.Sherbrooke Trust robbery nets $13,000 INDEX Births,

young thugs more than $13,000, when Sherbrooke Trust branch manager Jacques Custeau was attacked in Place Belvedere Shopping Centre parking lot.He was hit on the head by two young men and robbed of a valise containing the money.The parking lot at Place Belvedere is vast and usually empty.Mr.Custeau was locking his car when the men attacked him and knocked him down.When he fell, he broke a finger on his left hand.Sherbrooke Detective Capt.Roland Gaboriault said two women saw part of the actual robbery occur but were frightened and locked the doors of their car.Suzanne Perusse, the assistant - manager and cashier at the Place Belvedere branch of the Sherbrooke Trust Co- said Mr.Custeau picked the money up at the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce at 390 King Street West.She said he was brought into the office after the attack, his coat covered with h'noH 'i-V-h came from a large gash on his head.Miss Perusse suiiea co.d compresses were applied to the wound to stop the bleeding By DENNIS FINLAY (Record Staff Reporter) The bandits apparently made their getaway in a car owned by Philemon Vachon, of 616 Goupil Street, Sherbrooke, who is an employee at the pet shop in the shopping centre.He did not learn his car was missing until his lunch hour when he left at noon, about 90 minutes after the robbery.A young man working downstairs in the parking lot in the shipping-car order department saw a car speed out of the parking lot at 10:20, the time of the crime.The shipping department worker.Serge Therrien.22.of 476 London Street, Sherbrooke, described the car to police and his description fitted perfectly with Mr.Vachon s car, a 1962 model, dark blue in color.Mr.Therrien said he was loading a box of groceries into a car when he saw the blue car turn a comer \"like a fool was driving.\u201d He said it sped out the exit without stopping at the traffic lights and drove down Galt West towards Galt East.There were two young men in the car, he said, both about 20 years old He would not have noticed the car, he stat- ed, if it had not been travelling so dangerously fast through the parking lot.A young unidentified man found Mr.Custeau after the robbery and ran upstairs to the Centre de Coiffure Masculine, a barber - shop beside the stairs leading from the parking lot to the plaza.There, he told of the man being attacked and Gervais Bisson, the proprietor of the barber - shop and one of his employees, Jacques Grimard, both of Sherbrooke, ran to help Mr.Custeau.They found him sprawled over the railing on the stairway, semi - conscious, Mr.Bisson said.Rejean Roy, another barber in the same shop telephoned the police while Mr.Grimard and Mr Bisson helped Mr.Custeau to his office.Paul Fortier, branch manager of the Sherbrooke Trust Co.visited Mr.Custeau who told him the men who attacked him were young.He verified the sum of approximately $13,000 having been stolen.Captain Gaboriault said he thought the job was well planned.THIS IS HOW WE FOUND HIM: Jacques Grimard, left, demonstrates to Marcel Poulin how he and Gervais Bisson found Jacques Custeau, the branch manager of the Sherbrooke Trust Co.at the Place Belvedere Shopping Centre, who was attacked and robbed of S13,00).Mr.Grimard and Mr.Poulin are both barbers at the shopping centre's Centre de Coiffure Masculine, which is owned by Mr.Bisson.(Record photo: Gerry Lemay) I i ui its r»

Street North Sherbrooke, Quebec JOHN BASStTT Chairman DOUGLAS BASStTT Vice Prondenl IVAN SAUNDERS Pretidem HUGH DOHERTY tdilor in chiel _____FRIDAY, MARCH 22, 1968_ No effort to control waste in government In his final effort to gd his income tax increase proposals through the House of Commons, Hnuncc Minister Sharp made much of the determination of the Government to effect stringent economies in federal operations in which stand he naturally had the verbal support of other members of the administration.Hut the question that worries the taxpayer is: How serious is the Government in its professions that it wants to cut back spending and save the taxpayer money?If one is to accept recent statements by Auditor-Gencral Maxwell Henderson the urge for economy does not run very deep.During his recent appearance before the Commons public accounts committee, Mr.Henderson declared that his department had checked out the recommendations contained in the Glassco royal commission report on gov-ernment organization in 32 departments and found 450 examples of waste.T wo years later, at least 73 per cent of them still existed.The auditor-general said his report on wastage had never been studied by the public accounts committee and that the government itself had done nothing about them.The committee itself has brought in 64 suggestions for reducing government expenditures and improving accounting methods, but only eight have been accepted and acted upon by the administration, while one was withdrawn, leaving 55 not acted upon.With the apparent disinterest of the cabinet in really eliminating waste it is not surprising that Finance Minister Sharp had so much trouble getting his tax legislation through Parliament.The best indication that there\u2019s intelligent life elsewhere in Ihe universe Is that its representatives are bypassing earth exploration in these troublesome times.Grim outlook on taxes The conditions surrounding the $40,000,000 loan which Quebec province managed to arrange this week through a consortium of Canadian and Furopean banking houses offers a grim indication of what the taxpayers may expect when Finance Minister Dozois presents his budget in the Legislative Assembly later this month.Interest charges for the new loan are fixed at somewhat above 7>/2 per UT IT MUSKtt N WORKED PEITER IF HE'DA SHORTENED V THE COUMT/ y W

Petunias provide biggest color show By JOHN BRADSHAW Beauty in the garden comes from many sources, hut there are some flowers which are much more valuable and useful for this purpose than the majority.In this week\u2019s column I\u2019m recommending some of those that I feel are above the average in this regard.Every gardener, amateur or professional, will agree that dollar for dollar and square foot for square foot, petunias provide the biggest show of color each garden season.This has been particularly true since the FI Hybrid Satin series was introduced.The varieties belonging to this series are in the multiflora or many-flowered class, and are characterized by masses of brilliantly colored flowers carried on vigorous and compact plans.The blooms are medium sized, stiff-petalled and stand up better than almost any other flower under adverse weather conditions.Summer storms and rains have little effect on this most free flowering of all bedding petunias.The satin series comes in coral, scarlet, red, pink, white and purple colors.Many a garden is spoiled each year by the lavish use of white flowers.Basically, the effect of white is to deaden color.On the other hand, yellow is an exciting color which should be used a great deal more than it has been up to now.There are several excellent yellow petunias on the market, including Yellow Gleam, Brass Band and Sunburst.I don\u2019t think there\u2019s much to choose between them in quality, but one thing is certain; their soft lemon yellow color will add untold beauty and charm to any garden.Most commercial growers will have already sown quite a bit of their petunia seed.If you want yellow petunias for your garden this year, I'd strongly recommend that you get in touch with your plant grower, nursery or garden center and tell them your requirements.There\u2019s still time for them to get some seed and plants ready for setting out in the garden around the 24th of May.Several years ago David Burpee provided a new flower for middle of the border planting which has proven to be one of the great introductions of this Card party held at Rock Island ROCK ISLAND \u2014 Another successful card party of flower garden whist was held in the I OOF Hall March 11 with 12 tables playing this exciting game Collecting the most flowers and butterflys and claiming first prizes were Mr.and Mrs.T.D.Sloggett and Mr.and Mrs.Herbert Colt, Ayer\u2019s Cliff.The consolation prizes went to Mrs.Joyce Demers, Mr.and Mrs.Donald Webb and Miss Sandra Webb, Stanstead.Mrs.Geneva Lyons, Noble Grand of Crystal Rebekah Lodge, and her committee served refreshments.Mrs.Lyons invited the players to return the evening of March 25 and bring their friends for another happy evening.D.Hogg, UxbrMga, Ont.,

public speaking contest century.I\u2019m referring to 'he single and double Goriosa Daisies, direct descendants of the familiar Black Eyed Susans which grow in our pastures and roadsides.Here's a plant with a double function that can be treated either as an annual or a perennial.Sow the seed now and by July you'll have large flowering piants just the same as any annual.From then on they can be treated just like any other perennial and will last from year to year.Gloriosa Double Daisies are spectacular in the garden and excellent for cutting.The big globular golden yellow, double flowers somewhat resemble chrysanthemums.Occasionally some of them are semidouble with dark centres resembling the Black Eyed Susans from which they were developed.Vigorous three-foot plants are covered with long lasting blooms borne on long, strong stems.Gloriosa Daisies are prized for their rugged beauty, are easy to grow and tolerate both extreme heat and cold.One of my favorite perennials is the Linum or Perennial Flax.Day after day from late May until some time in August beautiful sky-blue flowers appear.They measure 1% to 2 inches in diameter.Everyday new buds burst into bloom and fade by evening.The plants have handsome feathery foliage reaching 18 inches in height.I don\u2019t know of a single insect pest or disease that attacks this fine perennial.It grows well under ordinary soil conditions and needs a sunny location in the garden.Flowers, foliage and fragrance can be yours by growing some of the hardy perennials pinks (Dianthus) in your garden.It\u2019s unfortunate that these favorites of Grandmother\u2019s garden are almost unknown to the thousands of young couples who started the garden since the end of World War II.The brilliantly colored flowers are wonderful for planting in beds, borders or rock gardens and in the cutting garden.The plants are quite low-growing and range in height from 10 to 18 inches.Many different forms and sizes of blooms are produced.One of the very best varieties to grow is the Grass Pink (Dianthus plumarius).This is the old-fashioned, English hardy pink that is used by the hundreds of thousands in the rock gardens and borders of Great Britain and Europe.The smooth, whitish foliage is formed in quite thick mats.Two or three, double or semi-double highly fragrant flowers are carried on each 18-inch stem.There\u2019s a wide range of colors including rose, pink, purple, lavender, white and many in-between shades.You\u2019ll like the way each petal is delightfully fringed.Flowering time is from early June until mid-summer.Grass Pinks are easily grown from seed which germinates in less than a week Seeds sown now will provide flowering plant this summer.They prefer a rich, well-drained soil but will thrive in any sunny location where the soil is well-drained.AYER\u2019S CLIFF - Public speaking contest was held March 8 in the Ayer's Cliff High School.Miss Brenda Coates acted as M.of C.and welcomed parents

Church on Sunday afternoon, March 10, Mr.and Mrs.Robert Aylesworth were extended a farewell by their many friends.Mr.and Mrs.Aylesworth, with the latter\u2019s mother, Mrs.Craig, are leaving shortly tor Stratford, Ont., where they will make their home and carry on their business.The ladies of the U.C.W.group, served refreshments, giving everyone a chance to chat with the guests of honor and wish them success and happiness in their new home and ventures.Mrs.Aylesworth and Mrs.Craig were each presented with a corsage, after which Bruce Kidd presented the couple, on behalf of the congregation and friends, with an electric coffee percolator, Mr.Aylesworth thanked the gathering on behalf of his wife, for their good wishes and kindness.Mr.and Mrs- Aylesworth will be greatly missed in the community and especially in the United Church where they have been very active.Mrs.Aylesworth has been a member of the U.C.W.and has been secretary for several years.Mr Aylesworth is a member of the session of the Church and a member of the committee of stewards and was the church treasurer for several years; both were members of the choir.Mr.Aylesworth was also a member of the local Masonic Lodge.Do-it-yourself &HSRBROOKE DAILY RECORD, FH1 , MARCH u, im 9 By WALKER RILEY Macdonald Collage First in the class was Suzanne Kennedy, with Linda Morgan coming second and Christine Keane, third

given them.Nancy Taylor spoke on, Public Speaking Makes Me Nervous; Cheryl Davidson, Bells; Sharon Pedersen, My Favorite Food and Esther Saanum on Accents.These two minute talks which proved interesting and fun, at least, for the audience, brought the afternoon to a close.500 party held at Coaticook OOATIOOOK \u2014 A 500 card party was held March 9 at the home of Mr.and Mrs.Ralph Hayes when a pleasant social evening was spent.Refreshments were provided by St.Stephen\u2019s Guild.Ladies first prize was won by Miss Jennie Cunnington and consolation by Mrs.John Cutting.Men\u2019s first prize went to Mrs.Frank Hansford and consolation to Lawrence Snow.Door prize winner was Mrs.Alvah Patterson Paying adult farmers to go back to school sounds, at first thought like a bit of a joke But it is proving to be a highly successful venture For the past month, at Bury, in Compton County, 60 men have been attending classes faithfully for five hours a day, five days a week Financed by the Department of Manpower, it is a co-operative arrangement between that department, the Quebec department of Agriculture, and the regional school board The regional Director for Adult Education.Stan Rowe, is the man who, in this instance, put the pieces together To my knowledge, this is the only English-language group organized so far But there were several in French during the past winter There is little doubt, based on this year\u2019s success, there will be more in the months ahead A petition to the local regional Director of Adult Education starts the ball rolling.It is a no-nonsense group, at Bury.They may be receiving a bit of financial assistance, but it is their time which is being invested, time which could he well spent doing one hundred and one other things, and they are out to wring from the day's instructor every bit of information they can When you come to think of it, is there any difference between a farmer being paid while he up-dates the knowledge he needs to keep ahead of the ag ricultural revolution, to a postgraduate student receiving an assistantship?In the long run, both will repay any debt many times over in their greater contribution to the community.It is an investment in the future.These classes do have their amusing side It is nothing short of comical to see how quickly the conditioned responses fonned in early school days come back.When the first bell goes, everyone is In place in two minutes Hands go up to ask questions.When recess is over, instead of gum under the window-sill, cigarettes go into the ash-can.Why some parts

MR.FIX Nothing makes a place look as though it is going to seed as quickly as a crack in tne wall.Even the smallest crack will spoil the appearance of an interior wall and a crack in the foundation will give the impression that the house may be about to tumble.Tiny cracks are seldom due to structural defects.Normal settling plus the bumps and bruises of daily living can cause them.They are un-slightly, however, and if you plan to sell your house they will turn away many a prospect.But aside from appearances.there is another good reason for tending to cracks quickly.Though not serious now, they can become serious through neglect.It doesn\u2019t take long to turn little ones into big ones.Plaster is bound to develop a few hairline cracks in a new home as it settles.Older homes will develop cracks due to stresses.Fine cracks can be filled with spackling compound, a material that comes ready to use.Larger cracks should be filled with a patching material.Ready-mix plaster is good.You just add water Plaster of Paris can be used but is not preferred because it hardens too quickly.Chip out the loose material.Undercut the crack so that it is wider at the bottom than at the surface.This will keep the patch from pulling out.Wet down thoroughly and fill witft piaster.Keep it damp for 24 hours for proper curing.Cracks in basement walls should be repaired as quickly as possible to prevent seepage.Break away all loose and crumbling concrete.Again make it wider at the bottom, like an upside down \u201cV.\u201d Apply plenty of water to the widened crack.Then fill î .\tHogb-vl JxJjt Cracks spoil the appearance of a home.with a reaay-mix concrete patch, the kind you just add water to.Use plenty.You can always trowel away the excess.Cracks in wood should be sanded since dirt and wax will keep fillers from sticking.Use plastic wood or similar compounds.Overfill and then sand.For very slight cracks or tiny dents the old reliable shellac stick will do very well.These are available in colors to match the old finish.Wood siding will now and then develop a slight crack.A crack in length of clapboard won\u2019t make it any less strong.It will not allow moisture to enter the house, but moisture will accumulate, keeping the board wet.Use a putty knife to pry apart the board where the crack is.Then coat both edges with glue.Since you can\u2019t apply a clamp you will have to figure out another way to apply pressure.One method is to drive a few nails along the underedge of the part, a few inches apart and NOT all the way in.Then bend up the nail.This will force up the board, pushing the edges of the crack together.When the glue is thoroughly dry, yank out the nails.(Newspaper Enterpnic Assn ) NEW OPEN LINE featuring subjects of interest to rural

FRI\u201e MARCH 22, 1968 OF SKIING in the Townships By Charles Catchpaugh hand It* cuts and scrapes receiv- NEAR THE END Wednesday several of the Townships' smaller ski centres closed their hills because of the tremendous thaw Hifiher, more sheltered stations kept operating, and at this point, skiing depends on the weatherman.With lower temperatures, and maybe a snowfall, we\u2019ll get another two weeks on the slopes.Regardless of rising temperature, there's sure to be a few hardy skiers who\u2019ll climb on foot as long as there are still patches of that white gold left to slide on.EXODUS BEGINS Now that our regional season has come to its last phase, top racers like the Espoires, instructors and others who can afford to take off, are planning ski jaunts to Western Canada, Chili, and even the Alps and Australia.Regarded as a rarity a decade ago, today it\u2019s common practice to move where there's snow and skiing once our season is over, and anyone has la admit, it\u2019s a great sport that can command that type of enthusiasm.Ski and the skiers\u2019 way of life has what it takes to create such zeal for a game.In fact, this devotion is even more evident in the mass number of ski publications sold throughout the year.SPRING SKI NEEDS If you\u2019re going to get the most out of spring skiing, try concentrating on toting along the right equipment, starting with lighter clothes.And with this recommendation, I\u2019ll warn you to only don shorts if you\u2019re either a good or particularly careful skier.Each spring the ski patrols ed by people with shorts, bare arms and hands, and this is understandable, as ice-snow can cut seriously.However, if you stay on your feet, there is a chance to get a wonderful tan, maybe rheumatism too, but it\u2019s all fun while the party lasts.Take along sun tan lotion if you want to help the sun, and by all means sunglasses and a suitable wet snow wax.Spring parking lots are usually muddy this time of year, so you should also consider rubber boots if you have fancy apres-ski boots.GOOD FRIEND DIES Skiers throughout the region who knew Jean Claude Proven-cher of Waterloo will be sorry to hear of this ardent s k i e r\u2019s death.A noted skier and supporter of the Canadian Amateur Ski Association, Mr.Pro-vencher was one of the important CASA figures in the Eastern Townships, While he stayed in the background, he was always listed among the most reliable and enthusiastic workers of the organization.H i s death occurred March 5.CSPS - AGM The Canadian Ski Patrol System\u2019s annual general

conditions in order to stage a special photography session for an advertiser.Our district measured up best among those contacted, and it looks as if they\u2019ll settle for Mt.Orford, where we are told, there\u2019ll still be skiing for two weeks.HOCKEY PROVINCIAL SENIOR LEAGUE INDEPENDANT LEAGUE THURSDAY'S GAME THURSDAY'S GAME DrummondvHle 2, Victoriavtlle 2 (Victorlaville leading 1-0 In final

Mount Baldy today shapes up as a battle between defending champion France and Austria with Canada\u2019s Nancy Greene expected to steal some of the spotlight.Miss Greene, the Rossland, B.C., flash who won silver and gold medals at the Winter Olympics in Grenoble, France, and France's Jean-Claude Killy, a triple gold medal winner at the Olympics, had the fastest practice times of the women and men Thursday.Official times were not kept.Miss Greene, who swept all three events at Aspen, Colo., last weekend is out to duplicate the feat here this weekend in the team competition that gets under way today with the downhill races for men and women.Killy will attempt to make up for a dismal three days last weekend when he finished among the top three in only one race, the downhill.However, neither Greene nor Killy will be able to add 'o their World Cup skiing leads here.The meet does not count toward the World Cup, awarded on points accumulated at the International Ski Federation sanctioned meets.Bruins drub Hawks 8-0 to move into stalemate for second with Rangers Boston Bruins, building up a head of steam for the National Hockey League playoffs, drubbed Chicago Black Hawks 8-0 Thursday night in Boston.Following a late season slump after losing sensational sophomore defenceman Hobby Orr, the Bruins have rebounded to win nine of their last 12 games Thursday\u2019s win moved the Bruins into a second place tie with New York Rangers in the NHL\u2019s Eastern Division, eight points behind Montreal Canadiens.In the only other scheduled game Thursday, Toronto Maple Leafs slammed Detroit Red Wings 5-2 at the Olympia in a game involving Eastern Division also-rans.Both had previously been eliminated from the playoff picture.The Bruins are in the playoffs this year for the first time in nine years, And the man many experts said would be responsible for their elevation has been sitting on the sidelines for several weeks following surgery on his knee, BRUINS ON PROWL Twenty-year-old Orr, expected back for the playoffs, was a first-half all star when the injury forced him to the sidelines.The Bruins had a temporary letdown, but they\u2019ve recovered the form that had them in first place early in the season.The only game tonight has St, Louis Blues in Los Angeles against the Kings in a Western Division match.The Kings trail Philadelphia Flyers, Western leaders, by four points, each with five games remaining in the 74-game schedule.Eddie Shack scored twice for Boiton with Phil Eipoitto getting a goal and two assists and Ed Westfall, Fred Stanfield, Ken Hodge, Tout Williams and John McKenzie one goal each.Esposito\u2019s three points gpve him 79 for the season, three behind Stan Mikita of Chicago.Mike Walton scored twice to pace the Leafs, out of the postseason playoffs for the first time in 10 years Other Toronto goals went to Norm Ullman, Brian Conacher and Paul Henderson while Detroit scorers were Gary Ungtr and Kent Douglas FIRST SINCE SWITCH It was the first game between the teams in Detroit since the Leafs picked up Ullman, Henderson and winger Floyd Smith for Unger, Frank Mahovlich Peter Stemkowski and professional rights to former Toronto defenceman Carl Brewer.There were 14,757 fans on hand for a first-hand look at how the trade turned out for the two clubs.The Bruins, in their recent surge have lost only two to Toronto and one to Detroit in the last 12 games.One of the major reasons for the Boston surge has been the sparkling play of Esposito, centring a line for Hodge and Williams.TOLD TO PASS Pivot last year on a Chicago line with Bobby Hull at right wing, Esposito was under orders to feed the high-scoring Black Hawks ace as often as possible But when he, Hodge and Stanfield were traded to Boston at the end of the season, the 26-year-old native of Sault Ste, Marie, Ont., had a new set of orders cut for him: Score when you can and pass when you can\u2019t.He now has hit a personal NHL high with 33 goals and 46 assists.In the last 10 games he has been among the hottest players in the league with 14 points on three goals and 11 assists.Only Ullman has more points\u201417 on seven goals and 10 assists.By comparison.Mikita has four goals and six assists in the same period while Gordie Howe of Detroit has six goals and seven assists.Howe is tied for third in league scoring with Jean Râtelle of New York, who has picked up six goals and four assists in the 10-game period.mm1* FOILED \u2014 Julot Dion of Waterville is seen making a save from Brouillard players in last night's game at the Sports Palace

Northcott MONTREAL (CPI - Chuck Hay of Scotland watched Ernie Richardson of Regina win the international curling championship in 1962 and decided he would learn to play the way Canadians do.\u201cI knew that any European rink that won the title would have to curl like that to win,\u201d Hay said Thursday night after he stretched his undefeated string to five in this year\u2019s tournament.Richardson is the only skip to win the title more than once and his Regina foursome did it in 1959.1960, 1962 and 1963 Hay, the defending champion who is making his fifth appearance in the championships, said he took his rink out and practised the long slide as opposed to the European style of delivering on one knee.He also switched his strategy from a draw game to a combination of takeout and draw.CANADIANS LOSE Scotland\u2019s strategy and style were particularly impressive during the fifth round of the eight-rink round-robin tournament Thursday night as they outguessed and outmanoeuvred a Canadian rink, skipped by 1966 champion Ron Northcott of Calgary, 10-5.The victory left the Scots in command and assured them of a berth in the playoffs which get under way tonight with the second- and third-place finishers meeting in a semi-final.The semi-final winner meets the first-place finisher for the title at 2 p.m.EST Saturday.The loss dropped the Canadians into second place with a 4-1 record but Northcott can do no worse than tie for third place if he loses the last two games of the round-robin today.The United States, skipped by 1965 champion Bud Somerville, was in third place after Thursday's action with a 3-2 record.Roy Berglof's Swedish rink was tied with Pierre Boan of France, Thor Andresen of Norway and Franz Marti of Switzerland for fourth place with 2-3 records.Werner Fischer-Weppler and his West German rink were already eliminated from playoff contention after going winless in all five games.Scotland met Switzerland in the sixth round at 9:30 a

Thursday, employed the Canadian strategy of starting fast to grab a 5-1 lead after four ends against Northcott.GOT THE JUMP \u201cThat was the secret of it all,\u201d said Hay.\u201cWe curled magnificently in the first five ends and got the big lead.\" Canada began the day by walloping Norway 13-8 but managed only a '7-5 victory over Sweden in the second game.The Swedes, picked as a threat before the start of the tournament by Hay.were tied 3-3 with Canada after six of the regulation 12 ends before Northcott rallied his forces to go ahead 6-3 in the next two ends.\"The ice was good and we were curling quite well,\u201d said Northcott.\u201cI guess it just means that the European countries are getting better and the gap is narrowing.\u201d The U.S.defeated Sweden 8-4 and Switzerland 17-6 before suffering defeat at the hands of the Scots.Norway also defeated France 12-1.Switzerland crushed West Germany 16-6.Sweden walloped West Germany 22-5, Scotland downed France 14-4 and Norway defeated West Germany 13-8.The last round of the tournament was set for 2:30 p m.today with Canada playing France, the U.S meeting Germany.Norway taking on Scotland and Switzerland playing Sweden.The semi-final is scheduled for 8 p m.tonight.If expansion clubs had support they would have shown profit MONTREAL (CP) - If fan support throughout the National Hockey League's expansion division had been uniform this season, all six teams would have showed a profit for their initial year of operation, Clarence Campbell said Thursday.\u201cAs it is, support has been truly remarkable,\u201d the NHL president said at a Montreal Canadiens\u2019 press luncheon.He said the new division started this season where the old established six-team group was in 1960 in terms of public support and gate receipts.\u201cIf there had been uniform support throughout the new division all teams would have ended in the black,\u201d he said.Minnesota North Stars had a solid first year at the gate, Los Angeles Kings are also showing a profit for owner Jack Kent Cooke and St.Louis Blues will show a profit for their first season\u2019s work.FLYERS 'MESSED UP' The NHL president said Philadelphia Flyers have become \u201cmessed up\u201d by a situation forcing them out of their home \u2014the Spectrum\u2014late in an otherwise successful season.The Spectrum was closed March 1 because of wind damage to the rink\u2019s roof and a civic hassle has developed over permission to re-open the building.\u201cPhiladelphia has had to play its home games on the road and have been hard hit financially because of refunds to season ticket holders and probable loss of playoff revenue,\u201d Campbell said.Unless the Flyers can get their building back by April 4, they will likely settle in Detroit or Toronto for their last two home games and the playoffs.Detroit Red Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs have been eliminated from the East Division playoffs.The Flyers currently lead the West Division with 71 points.WANTS FAN SUPPORT Campbell said he urged the team to select a temporary site now so it can plan ahead and build some fan support before the playoffs start.He said the operation of Pittsburgh Penguins and Oakland Seals, the only two clubs in the new division which do not own or control their own rinks, will both be loss factors.Total gate receipts in the East Division have doubled since 1960 because of enlarged premises and increased ticket prices.The fate of Oakland Seals remains in the hands of the current owners, Campbell said, adding that he had still not received formal application from Oakland governor Barend Van Gerbig for sale of the franchise to any bidder.Several bids for the Oakland team have been made, including one from Labatt of Canada Ltd,, with the company ready to move the ailing Seals to Vancouver.NEED APPROVAL After NHL approval of an ownership change, the league governors would then have to approve the movement of the franchise to a new location.Campbell said in his personal opinion there will be no further league expansion on the scale of this season for another five years.\u201cThere was a backlog of talent available then, but this backlog will not be repeated for five or six years or a hockey generation.\u201d He said there \u201ccould be a pair\u201d of teams added in \u201csome lesser period of time,\u201d but surveys have

VICTOR1AV1LLE - The Tigers clawed the Drummondville Eagles here last evening at the Jean Beliveau Centre to chalk up an impressive 7-2 win in the first tilt of the finals of the Quebec Provincial Senior Hockey League.Clement Tremblay paced the attack with a hat-trick while Guy Black, Pierre Potvin Jacques Michel and Larry Drouin completed the assault.Rollie Leclerc and Bob Eastman potted the tallies for the losers.The Tigers dominated the game in all departments and it was only the good work of Claude Cyr that prevented the home club from running the score into double figures.The Tigers jumped into a 2-1 lead after the first frame and in the middle they added four and finished with a lone marker in the third period.The Eagles got one in the first and the other in the final stanza.The trio of Clement Tremblay, Jacques Michel and Normand Pepin just ran away from the Drummondville ciub.They had little trouble in rounding the defense and Cyr had his hands full in holding them at bay.They were buzzing all around and kept the Eagles bottled up in their own end.Guy Black opened the scoring in the first period just seven minutes after the opening.J.Hardy helped to set him and the veteran winger made no mistake in batting the puck by Cyr.This gave the Tigers a lift and they kept applying the pressure.A few minutes later P.Potvin made it 2-0 before Rollie Leclerc potted the Eagles' initial tally.During the first period the Tigers drove a total of 20 shots at Cyr while Hardy had thirteen fired at him.It was in the middle session that the Tigers took command.Bob Chevalier and Ronnie Roberts tangled after tossing their elbows around but finally they were separated.Roberts drew a major while the veteran rearguard got tagged with a double minor.After things had cooled off Ihe Tigers took command with each side a man short.Tremblay potted his first goal and the Tigers moved ahead 3-1.A couple of minutes later Jacques Michel teamed up with Tremblay, when the teams were still short-handed, and the home club was away and flying.Two more quick goals within four minutes sealed up the decision as the Tigers were driving at this stage.Clement Tremblay got his second marker and Larry Drouin added the other as the period ended with the Tigers holding a comfortable 6-1 lead.In the final frame the Eagles finally added their second tally when Bob Eastman finished off a play with Andre Lagueux.Just after this the Eagles\u2019 spurt was spiked w'hen Garneau and Drouin tangled leaving the teams short-handed.Each drew majors for their act.The Eagles had their best period in the third as they bounced back and Hardy has some anxious moments.They got in around Hardy but wher they had him beat their shots were nicking the posts or goinf wide.They were off target some although they were trying ant fighting but it was a los cause.The next tilt is slated fo: Drummondville Sunday after noon and things could be differ ent in the Civic Centre.Don\u2019t wait any

BUMPER-POOL is an interesting, fast moving game that provides thrills for spectators, who are welcomed, at any of the mentioned clubs, and at the final tournament.RULES OF THE GAME ARE AS FOLLOW: 1\t\u2014 BUMPER Pool is played by two players or by four as partners.2\t\u2014 Each side has five red balls or five white balls, one of each being a marked ball.3\t\u2014 To set up BUMPER Pool, place two red balls on each side of white cup on markers, placing marked red balls directly in front of white cup.Place white balls in same position around the red cup.4\t\u2014 Players decide which player shall shoot first.Losing player always has choice.Player not shooting first, picks up his spot ball.The other player shoots his center marked ball, hitting first the side cushion, banking the ball into or near his color cup.The second player now returns his spot ball to the center spot and shoots his ball for his colored cup.(If first player\u2019s ball is in the way of his shot, it must be lifted from the table and replaced after second player is through shooting).If both players sink their first ball, then another ball is shot and the same procedure as above is used.5\t\u2014 After each player has shot his center marked ball, the player nearest his color cup then shoots first.6\t\u2014 The first player to get marked ball into his color cup may play any one of his four remaining balls.Players may use their ball to block or knock away opponents\u2019 balls.7\t\u2014 Each time a player sinks his ball into his own color cup, he shoots again immediately.(Exception: First shot\u2014See Rule 4).8\t\u2014In case the ball leaves the table it should be placed In the center of the bumpers.9\t\u2014 If the player sinks one of his opponents\u2019 balls, there is no penalty, but if he sinks one of his own balls into his opponent\u2019s cup, his opponent may then take off two of his own balls by dropping them into cup.10\t\u2014 The first player or team to sink all five of their balls is the winner.11\t\u2014 If either player sinks his last ball into opponent\u2019s cup, he auto- matically loses the game.12\t\u2014 A player may move his ball from any position on the table to an opposite corresponding position as determined by the lines on the table.Only the player about to shoot may move his ball.A.\tBall may be moved to opposite corresponding position only if that space is unoccupied.B.\tOnce player lifts ball to move it, the move must be completed and ball must be shot from new position.C.\tAny ball lying wholly \u2018or partially within the circle cannot be moved.BUMPER-POOL IS A NEW SPORT WITH MANY THRILLS, AND A GAME OF SKILL!
