year Kierans staggers Imagination in eroding enemies By RICHARD JACKSON Record Ottawa Columnist OTTAWA \u2014 It had to be difficult, almost beyond imagination, if not quite impossible, but Communications Minister Eric William Kierans has pulled it off the political hat trick of this Parliament.His eye-dazzling, mind-boggling achievement surpassing even that expert Prime Minister Trudeau in the amazing art of stonewalling, snowballing and utterly baffling the Opposition, Conservative.New Democratic and Creditiste alike No member of the cabinet has made such an unbelievable mess of his department as Eric Kierans with the Post Office.He permitted postal strikers to blackjack the Treasury into a pay raise going beyond the government s own guidelines and costing the public a hefty increase in mail costs.He cut delivery schedules.He stood still for wildcat strikes.He let the bottom drop out of the once-proud mail service.And the Opposition hasn't been able to lay a glove on him in their so-far hopeless fight with this most artful dodger in a cabinet distinguished for its fleet and fancy political footwork.IT'S TO LAUGH: In fact, they seem so disheartened, they've about thrown in the towel, not having asked him about his pony express-style mail service in a week.For months on end there were complaints and protests about what the Opposition bleated and bled was his shocking \u2018non-service.\u201d Conservative, New Democratic and Creditiste members came to the Commons Daily Question Period armed with postmarked letters, documentary proof that it was taking a week to get a letter from Montreal to Toronto, five days from Winnipeg to Calgary, four days from one side of Ottawa to the other.At first Eric Kierans agreed things were pretty awful.\u2018 The public is paying more,\u201d he said, \u201cand getting less service for it.\u201d Then he tried \u2018\u2018shaming.\u201d as he put it, some of his slow-moving postal staff, reminding them that in no other occupation was anybody doing \u201cexactly the same kind of work in the same way as their grandfathers did.\u201d Finally he attempted frightening them with talk of welcoming \u201ccompetition\u201d for the Post Office which might compel his staff to smarten up in their own financial self-defence and economic preservation.Nothing works.Especially criticism in Parliament.For Eric Kierans has got to the point of just laughing about it.An Opposition MP brings to his attention in the House a particularly awful example of \"non-service.\u201d and Eric Kierans simply sits there, grinning.FUNNY: He yuks it up, could be in embarassment And they give him the haw-haw, certainly in frustration.The mail service, as it used to be called, has become a standing joke in Parliament.Nobody in the Commons takes it seriously any more \u2014 how could they \u2014 and so Eric Kierans.who used to be Postmaster General, doesn't get bugged any more.What\u2019s the use, the MPs shrug, of trying to ride him when all he does is laugh it up1 So they're off his back.And it still takes four days to get a letter across the National Capital, and who knows how long between Parliament Hill and say, Cornerbrook, Newfoundland or Powell River, B.C.0 But that worker of parliamentary magic, Eric Kierans, has done even better than shrugging and laughing off his non-service as the giggle-of-the-session.With a wave of the cabinet wand, the job of Postmaster General \u2014 that was what he was before he pulled his vanishing act \u2014 has disappeared.In the new list of the Ministry \u2014 see the back page of the official parliamentary Hansard for any Wednesday\u2014 Eric Kierans is catalogued as \u201cMinister of Communications.\u201d And nowhere is there any trace of \u201cPostmaster General.\u201d Good thing, too, Eric Kierans probably figures.For not only is it a matter of, hopefully, out-of-sight out-ofmind, but it gives him more time to turning his multitalents to quartejbacking National Defence, External Affairs, and any other department he may feel requires his attention.Rail wreck CAMPBELLTON.N.B.(CP) \u2014 Bodies of two crew members were

to within 50.(XX) feet of the moon today to scout a site for a July landing by two Americans Thomas Stafford and Eugene Cernan are poised to detach the lunar landing craft, or LEM, from the command ship in the mission's most dangerous manoeuvre They are to be gone more than eight hours They are to leave John Young alone in the command vessel in mid-afternoon to make a daring descent toward a landscape thev described Wednesday such terms as \"rugged planet.'' \"fantastic\" and \"out of this world They are to skim twice over the landing site at a height of 9 3 miles starting at approximately 5:30 p.m.EDT They hope to get a total of 13 minutes of radar ranging, photographs and visual observations Then they are to execute a series of tricky manoeuvres to rejoin the command ship, circling 69 miles above the moon but ready to fly to their rescue if necessary.HNKUP NECESSARY The linkup must be made if Stafford and Cernan are to get home.LEM, a little, bug-like ship, was

the size of a dime to a football stadium.FITS DESCRIPTION It is an ellipse measuring four by nine miles From a distance, the surface resembles the \"dirty beach sand\" description given by the Apollo 8 astronauts who circled the moon in December \"That's where were going down tomorrow to photograph,'\" Stafford told the TV audience Hy charting landmarks on the approach to and In the zone, Stafford

Pelletier's suggestion that every major city should have a French school was described in the Commons Wednesday as extremist by John S k o b e r g ( NDP \u2014Moose Jaw).\u201cMunicipal taxation across Canada today is such that we simply can\u2019t afford this luxury,\u201d Mr.Skoberg said during debate on the official languages bill \u201c1 know of too many senior citizens who are losing their homes as a result of taxation '' Mr.Skoberg said he supports the bill but he urged the government to \u201ctread carefully\" in implementing it.\u201cDo not insist that civil servants at all levels become bilin- gual immediately.\" he said STUDY COST CRITICIZED Bilingualism had to start at the bottom, in schools, rather than at the top, among men who had worked for years.He criticized the cost of sending top federal employees to Toronto and Quebec for year-long language courses at public expense.There was public fear about how the bill would be used.Every railway employee and civil servant, for instance, might be told to learn a second language late in life.The Commons returns to the bill Friday after a one-day debate on a Creditiste motion aimed at the government's economic policies.Mr Skobere\u2019s oualms were echoed by other MPs.Clifford Downey (PC\u2014Battle Kiver-Camrose) asked why other Canadians should swallow bilingualism when there is a trend toward unilingualism in Quebec.George Hees (PC\u2014Prince Ed-ward-Hastings) said legislation guaranteeing the use ci French has been introduced in Ontario and New Brunswick but a language bill in Quebec had been withdrawn.He urged Prime Minister Trudeau to ask Premier Bertrand of Quebec to reintroduce it while Parliament debates the federal bill.SEEKS ASSURANCE Lloyd Francis (L\u2014Ottawa West) urged, as did Mr Skoberg, that federal employees with long service not suffer because of the legislation.Mark MacGuigan (L\u2014Windsor-Walkerville) defended the bill against criticism by J J.Thor son, former Exchequer Court president, who said its measures are unconstitutional.Mr MacGuigan, a professor of constitutional law, said English has been predominant in Canada but it hasn't been offi cial.The British North America Act did not stipulate an official language, And there was nothing in Canada's constitutional history to back up Mr Justice Thorson\u2019s argument that F FROM NOW INTO

Denny Remaster singled in the decisive run in the sixth inning and Fred Gladding protected it as Houston Astros slipped past Montreal Expos 3-2 Wednesday night.Doug Rader walked to open the sixth and reached second with two outs before Remaster drove out loser Bill Stoneman, 3-4, with a run-scoring single for a 3-1 lead.Remaster gave up Gary Sutherland's first homer of the year in the eighth before Gladding took over at the start of the ninth and completed Houston's fourth consecutive victory and 13th in 17 games.Montreal dropped its sixth in a row Remaster, who beat Montreal a week ago for his first victory, is 2-5.Denis Menke, hitting in his 14th straight game, doubled and scored on Rader's hit in the second and Norm Miller tripled in a run in the third Rusty Staub doubled and eventually scored on a ground out for Montreal's first run in the fourth Tom Seaver silenced Atlanta on three hits and lowered his 1969 National League earned-run average to 1 96 Wednesday as New York Mets tripped the Braves 5-0 in Atlanta Seaver, considered the leader of the Mets\u2019 pitching staff although only 24, collected his fifth consecutive victory and raised his record to 6-2 Bob Moose of Pittsburgh and Claude Osteen of Los Angeles each gave up five hits as the Dodgers edged Chicago Cubs 3-1 and the Pirates clubbed San Diego Padres 11-1 on 15 hits.In other games, San Francisco Giants nipped St.Louis Cardinals 4 3, Houston Astros downed Montreal Expos 3-2 and Cincinnati Reds defeated Phila- delphia Phillies 6-5.Seaver, since his winning streak started, has limited the opposition to only seven runs He hasn\u2019t lost a game since April 25 and his only two defeats were 3-1 decisions to Bob Gibson of the Cardinals and the Cubs\u2019 Ferguson Jenkins RETIRED 12 STRAIGHT Wednesday he retired 12 consecutive hitters during one stretch, Cleon Jones, the leading hitter in the major leagues, drove in two first-inning runs for the Mets off Phil Niekro and Bud Harrelson wrapped it up with a three-run triple in the eighth.\u201cHe\u2019s been a little down on himself after losing a couple of real tough ones,\" said manager Gil Hodges of Seaver, \"but tonight he was great.\u2019\u2019 \u201cIt was my best game by far this year,\u2019\u2019 Seaver added \u201cI seem to have straightened my- self out and 1 think 1 II have a good year now.\u201d Osteen raised his record to 6-2 and only missed his second straight shutout when Billy Williams doubled home a run in the eighth with two out But that was after Willie Crawford's fifth homer had opened the game for the Dodgers and Osteen and Crawford singled home runs in the fifth.Willie Mays gave Gaylord Perry his seventh triumph against three losses for the Giants when he broke a 2-2 tie with a two-run homer in the eighth inning It was his fifth of the season and 592nd of his career Perry, who also singled in a run, scattered eight hits, but two of them were solo homers by Tim McCarver and Jim Hicks.Moose had the easiest time as rookie A1 Oliver hit a grand-slam homer and Jerry May, Richie Hebner and Willie Stargell each drove in two runs May also had a homer Houston, after a dismal start, won its fourth game in a row and 13th in 17 starts as Denny Remaster captured his second straight win after five losses.Remaster, who gave way to Fred Gladding in the ninth, also singled in the decisive run in the sixth inning as the Astros handed Montreal its sixth consecutive defeat Cincinnati rallied for two runs in the bottom of the ninth on Johnny Bench\u2019s single and a bases-loaded walk issued by Jerry Johnson to pinch hitter Ted Savage.The Phillies had taken a 5-4 lead in their half of the ninth on a wild pitch CAHA unhappy with reports ri?Claude Ruel to coach Canadiens once again CALGARY (CP) - The Canadian Amateur Hockey Association, making no bones about age limits imposed by professional hockey, is concerned over a possible breach in its contract with the National Hockey League Part of the CAHA-NHL agreement signed in 1967 reduced the junior age limit to 20 years as of Dec.31.Included in the NHR's part of the agreement was a clause that guaranteed amateurs a forewarning before a professional club moved into amateur territory.The CAHA.despite protests from some delegates attending the annual meeting this week, has already decided to abide by the current age limit, while showing concern over reports that the NHL is planning to place minor professional clubs in Montreal, Kingston, Ont., and Ottawa.Earl Dawson, CAHA president from Rivers, Man., said Wednesday he had sent a telegram to NHL president Clarence Campbell, stressing the concern.The telegram was approved by delegates.CAHA IGNORED \u201cWe have not been notified and we should object to being ignored in a matter of such importance,\u201d Dawson told delegates in plenary session.The meeting was told that Montreal is interested in placing an American Hockey League franchise in Montreal, which was the main concern for Dawson who had already written Campbell regarding the Kingston and Ottawa situation Minnesota North Stars plan to put a franchise in Kingston and Detroit Red Wings are thinking about placing a team in Ottawa Dawson said such a move by Montreal \u201cwould be detrimental to amateur clubs.\u201d Earlier, a memorandum of understanding between the CAHA and Hockey Canada, which has taken over management of Canada\u2019s national team, was read to delegates by Dawson.It was deferred to Friday.The CAHA says it will cooperate in every respect, but wants its relationship with Hock ey Canada governed by seven general principles.In one of the principles, the CAHA wants to be acknowledged in its position as the sole governing body for amateur hockey in Canada, and its position as the official representative of Canadian amateur hockey in the international sphere MUST BE REGISTERED While agreeing to accept and abide by the directions given by Hockey Canada regarding the national team's participation in international competition, the MONTREAL (CP) - Claude Ruel, who led Montreal Canadiens to the Stanley Cup and National Hockey League east Division title in his first season as coach, has signed for next season.General manager Sam Pollock, in announcing the signing Wednesday, said Ruel received a \u201csubstantial raise\u201d but contract terms were not revealed Pollock also told a news conference Montreal is negotiating with Ken Dryden of Toronto, star goaltender with Cornell University Ken, 21, is due to graduate soon and must decide between a pro hockey or a law career.He is a brother of Dave, a Chicago Black Hawks\u2019 goalie.Another matter that remains under negotiation is Canadiens bid to operate an American Hockey League franchise in Montreal next winter.Pollock said AHL owners will decide fob lowing a special league meeting scheduled for Sprinfield, Mass., next Wednesday.EASIER THIS TIME Pollock said it was easier to sign Ruel this time than to his initial contract last year.\u201cLast year he was replacing Toe Blake, who had the greatest coaching record in the history of hockey.Now he goes into his second year with a league championship and a Stanley Cup.\u201d The pounding Ruel took in reaching the league title and the Stanley Cup had left him a bundle of nerves.He had even let it be known that he would almost welcome a relief from the job.However, a few weeks rest since the end of the season has left him eager for another season.Planning Canada's role in International competition MONTREAL (CPI \u2014 David Molson.a director of Hockey Canada which has been set up to rebuild the country\u2019s national team, said Wednesday a special meeting of the organization here next week should provide \u201csignificant developments\u201d on Can-ad a s role in international competition \u201cYou\u2019ll notice I said \u2018international' not professional or amateur,\u201d Molson told a news conference However, he refused to comment on what these developments could be.Molson.president of Montreal Canadiens of the National Hockey League, agreed with NHL president Clarence Campbell that it would be against the league's constitution if Toronto Maple Leafs or the Canadiens supplied the nationals with players during the NHL schedule or playoffs.\u201cThe NHL constitution states any team has to have its best players on the ice at all times,\" Molson said.\u201cTherefore w'e can\u2019t loan one or 10 players to the national team \u201d Leafs' president Stafford Smythe previously indicated he would give three of his players to the nationals.CAHA has insisted tnat the players, managers, coaches and trainers of the team be registered members of organized hockey associations Financial reports presented to the plenary session Wednesday said the CAHA earned $63,809 from 1969 junior and senior playoffs.The CAHA picked up $46.380 as its share from nine junior series which netted gross receipts of $309,201.After expenses were deducted, the CAHA said the 10 teams who took part in the junior series for the Memorial Cup would divide $54.013 with Sorel Black Hawks getting the biggest chunk-$14,323.Montreal Junior Canadiens, who eliminated the Hawks in four games in the eastern Memorial Cup final and went on to defeat Regina Fats to win the Canadian title, get $10,333.It took seven series to decide an Allan Cup winner and the CAHA netted $17,429 despite an over-all loss of $383 for the playoffs After expenses and the CAHA levy wiped out gross gate receipts of $118,755, there was $6.524 left for five of eight teams involved Galt Hornets, 1968-69 Allan Cup champions, receive $624 WEDNESDAYS BASEBALL National New York 5 Atlanta 0 Philadelphia 5 Cincinnati 6 Montreal 2 Houston 3 Pittsburgh 11 San Diego 1 Chicago 1 Los Angeles 3 St.Louis 3 San Francisco 4 m: -

A badly-withered blanket of roses and another of drooping black-eyed susans are propped up beside barn 9 at Belmont Park.They're symbols of victories in the Kentucky Derby and Preakness to assistant trainer Mike Boa, who hopes to take them back to California along with a blanket of carnations if Majestic Prince wins the Belmont Stakes June 7\u2014third leg of racing's Triple Crown.And inside stands the powerful chestnut three-year-old.declared unfit to tackle the Pa-mile Belmont by trainer Johnny Longden before the decision was overruled by owner Frank McMahon of Calgary and Vancouver.The Prince was shipped here from Pimlico Wednesday and McMahon said: \"We\u2019re going to give him a chance to win the Triple Crown ' In California Longden said he will travel to New York to resume the thoroughbred's training.PLANS CHANGED Longden.who paid $250.(KX) on behalf of McMahon for the colt as a yearling, had gone to California to wait for Majestic Prince who was to be shipped there for a rest.However, his plans were changed by McMahon's decision.\u201cI talked to McMahon last night and he said he wanted to run the Prince in the Belmont if everything goes all right,\u201d Longden said Wednesday.\"1 thought we had decided to give him a rest after his Preakness victory.That race and his run in the Kentucky Derby were hard ones.He looked a little tired and he\u2019s lost some weight and I said then if he was mine that I'd give him a rest.\u201c1 felt Frank and 1 were in agreement, but apparently he's changed his mind.T spent a year preparing the Prince for the Derby and that was the race I really wanted.But he came out of the Derby in such good condition and I thought the Preakness might be a little easier on him.so we went after it But it was a hard race and it's been a hard campaign \u201c.We\u2019ll do our best to get him ready for the Belmont and we ll trv to win that one.too.\u201d PRESSURE TO RACE McMahon said there was no question that there was a lot of pressure to have the big red horse go in the Belmont.The Prince would be the ninth horse in the last 50 years to win the Triple Crown by a victory in the Belmont.The first, back in 1919, was Sir Barton, owned by the late Cmdr.J.K L.Ross of Lindsay, Ont., and Montreal.The last to do it was Citation in 1948 McMahon said, however, that his decision to enter the horse in the June 7 Stakes race was not final.\u201cWell look at him for the next few days and if he looks right, he\u2019ll run,\" McMahon said Longden had announced last Sunday, the day following Majestic Prince's victory in the Preakness.that he considered the thoroughbred a valuable piece of property that should not be risked in a race three weeks later MORNING 8:45 Junoir boys 100 trials.8:55 Juvenile boys dash \u2014 trails.9:05 Midget boys 100 trials.9:15 Bantam boys trials.9:25 Peewee boys 50 trails.9:35 Midget girls 60 trails.9:40 Senior girls 60 trials.9:45 Peewee girls 50 trials.9:59 Bantam girls 60 trials.9:55 Junior boys 220 trials.yard dash 100 yard yard dash 100 yard yard dash yard dash yard dash yard dash yard dash yard dash 10:05 Juvenile boys 220 yard dash \u2014 trials.10:15 Midget boys 220 yard dash trials.10:25 Bantam boys 220 yard dash \u2014 trials.10:35 Peewee boys 75 yard dash trials.10:45 Midget girls 100 yard dash \u2014 trials.10:50 Senior girls 100 yard dash trials.Good luck to the participants in the E.T.Unterscholastic Track and Field Meet being held in Sherbrooke May 24th.Harry Evans PLUMBING & HEATING 22 Atto St.LENNOXVILLE QUE.Tel.562-9574 10:55 Bantam dash \u2014\tgirls trials.\t100\tyard 11:C0 Peewee dash \u2014\tgirls trials.\t75\tyard 11:05 Junior final.\tboys\t440\tyard 11:15 Juvenile final.\tboys\t440\tyard 11:25 Midget final.\tboys\t880\tyard 11:35 Bantam trials.\tboys\t440\trelay 11:45 Midget trials.\tgirls\t220\tyard 11:50 Senior trials.\tgirls\t220\tyard 12:00 Peewee relay \u2014\tboys trials.\t220\tyard 12:15 Banam trials.\tgirls 440 \u2014\t\trelay 12:30 Peewee girls 220 \u2014\t\t\trelay trials.AFTERNOON 1:30 Midget girls 60 yard final 1:35 Senior girls 60 yard 1:40 Bantam boys 440 yard 1:45 Midget boys 44) yard 1:50 Junior boys 880 yard 2:00 Juvenile boys 880 yard 2:10 Peewee giris 50 yard BEST WISHES TO THE PARTICIPANTS in the E.T.Interscholastic Track and Field Meet.Marcotte Furniture Reg'd 516 Main St.\u2014 RICHMOND \u2014 Tel.826-3520 THE BEST CHARACTERS ARE DEVELOPED IN FAIR COMPETITION' Encourage Our Young Athletes!
