Governor General Romeo LeBlanc made a plea for national unity Saturday night before several hundred members of the the St.Jean Baptiste Society, gathered for a regional convention in this Eastern Townships community.The evening had a decidedly federalist leaning.But the man who today represents Canada ta the Queen of England confessed that he, too once had doubts about the merits of being Canadian.LeBlanc, an Acadian, said one of the problems facing Canada in its early years was that many of the quarrels between countries in Europe were being imported into the country.LeBlanc said the effects of those quarrels are still being felt today in the referendum campaign.\u201cIt is true that our history is not without its problems.We inherited a lot of the faults of Europe, and we have created a few problems of our own,\u201d he said.\u201cBut we can't forget the long list of qualities, and we cannot doubt the possibilities of what we still have to gain.\u201d NEW PRIDE It\u2019s those qualities that eventually led Leblanc to a new pride in his country.The Governor General told his audience he is convinced Canadians can learn to get over any obstacles they may face in the future.\u201cHere at home we really have place for everyone,\u201d he said.LeBlanc said the injustices French Canadians feel outside Quebec and those that some anglophones in Quebec cite are never the fault of any particular ethnic group.\u201cIn New Brunswick,\u201d LeBlanc recalled, \u201cunder an Acadian premier and anglophone supporters, we learned that injustice wasn\u2019t Just a matter of language,\u201d said LeBlanc.\u201cIt can be found in isola- Committee cultivates farm theme Yes hoping to harvest ted regions and in areas deprived of a chance to be equal.\u201d LeBlanc sang the praises of Canada\u2019s 20th-century achievements, her outstanding contributions in both World Wars and the continuing efforts of Canadian peacekeepers in conflict-torn nations like Bosnia and Rwanda.In the process, LeBlanc said the country has come of age.\u201cWe have become an industrial power and in the process have become an adult country.And now we are open to the world.\u201d The Governor General finished his speech with a plea for all Canadians to put old problems behind them and work toward making Canada a better place.\u201cWe must bury our old problems so that we can find our proper road.\u201d Romeo LeBlanc urged Canadians to work out their differences.RECORDPERRY BEATON Local TV reporter votes honored b ASCOT CORNER (MC) \u2014 Sovereignists from across the region

convention of several St.Jean Baptiste Society chapters in Orford.Beaudoin credited his success to sheer ignorance.This, he joked, has allowed him to be y SSJB a success by going into all stories and having to learn as much as he could, rather than assuming he knew it all.\u201cIt took me a few years to master the technique,\u201d he said.\u201cA journalist is someone who knows nothing, and is paid to know nothing.But he gets to know people who know everything.\u201d Beaudoin quoted colleague Bernard Sevigny to close off his speech.\u201cThere are no bad stories, there are only bad journalists.\u201d Denis Beaudoin told the Société St Jean Baptiste that ignorance has been the key to his success as a journalist.RECORD: PERRY BEATON o Nationwide Gnaranises | SHERBROOKE | 1850 King

should vote Yes By Stephan Dubreuil SHERBROOKE \u2014 \u201cWhy vote Yes?\u201d That's the question provincial Justice Minister Paul Bégin asked and answered for a small group of University of Sherbrooke students on Thursday.In a talk sponsored by the university's committee for a Yes vote, Bégin told the students that the power behind Bill 101, which made French the only official language in the province, has been, \u201crepeatedly diluted by Supreme Court of Canada rulings.\u201d He added that although French is not threatened in areas outside Montreal, a Yes vote is now the only way to stop the decline of French in the city.He said immigrants living in Montreal are not being integrated into French-speaking society because they outnumber francophones in 40 per cent of the city's schools.Bégin reiterated statements made in Our Hearts in Our Work, a pamphlet recently issued by the Yes forces.It predicts that if present trends continue, within 25 years French will no longer be the language spoken at home by the majority of Montrealers.THREATS The minister told the 50 or so students that without protective regulations, threats to French such as \u201cunregulated cyberspace and telecommunications could turn Quebec into another Louisianna where the use of French has become little more than folklore.\u201d Bégin warned that a No victory would add to the province\u2019s deficit by perpetuating the overlap in spending by parallel provincial and federal services.He promised native land claims and autonomy would be dealt with justly in a sovereign Quebec and added that Federal Finance Minister Paul Martin\u2019s plans to raise university tuition fees and push the retirement age up to 67 \u201ccould not work in a sovereign Quebec.\u201d Bégin did not say how these issues would be handled differently in a sovereign Quebec.Telling students that \u201cwe must all work together and push ahead to win\u201d Bégin urged them to convince their friends and neighbors to

Guidon\u2019, the ceremony which confers such battle honors officially.In September 1941, the Royal Rifles of Canada were sent to bolster the British garrison in Hong Kong.The Japanese attacked the colony Dec.8, and for two weeks the poorly equipped troops held out without any reinforcements.But in the end, being heavily outnumbered by enemy troops and without hope of assistance from the British, the garrison fell on Christmas day.For most of the next four years the members of the Royal Rifles, many of them from the Eastern Townships, endured starvation, torture and forced labor.After the end of World War II the contribution of these veterans made to the war effort was largely ignored.Only recently has the Japanese government itself offered any kind of apology for the mis- No

honest When sovereignists base their arguments for an independent country on a deep desire to control their own affairs, I can empathize.And I laud their proclamations of pride in being French Quebecers, capable of accomplishing great things without holding Mother Canada\u2019s hand.They have reason to be proud, and as an anglo Quebecer, I feel privileged to be part of this unique part of Canada.But shrinking the stage doesn\u2019t necessarily produce bigger stars.And sorry, the \u201coppressed people\u201d argument doesn\u2019t wash.Premier Parizeau\u2019s nonsense about Que- becers paying taxes to Ottawa so the feds can finance job creation projects in Ontario is simply a crock.Quebec receives more in transfer payments from Ottawa than it pays in taxes and to say otherwise will make his nose grow.Similarily, language Minister Louise Beaudoin\u2019s trumped up \u201cfear for the French language\u201d card, is bogus, since there is substantial evidence to the contrary.In the last 20 years French has taken its rightful place in Quebec, and children inside and outside Quebec are flocking to immersion programs to learn French.If sovereigntists were truly committed to the preservation of the French language they'd give serious thought to the future of a million francophones scattered across Canada if Quebec were to become independent.Or do they share Preston Manning\u2019s vision of a French Quebec and English everywhere else?Do sovereigntists think francophones living elsewhere in Canada are any less proud of their French heritage because they don\u2019t live in Quebec?If so, they certainly didn\u2019t feel the vibes at the Acadian festival or stroll through the Old Fort at St.Bonifice.Sovereigntists are being less than honest when they claim they are not wanted or appreciated by Canadians.Sure, there have been isolated exhibitions of bigotry and disparaging comments made about French.But with 20 million opportunities each day to insuit.those incidents are relatively few compared to the displays of affection for Quebec.Canadians outside of Quebec have also peen living with the independence question since 1980 and before.They too have endured Meech and Charlottetown.And they've watched Quebec dominate the national agenda for more than 15 years.Still,in this referendum campaign, individual Canadians are sitting down with pen in hand to write letters to newspapers beseeching Que- becers to remain in Canada.That takes more thought than the spontaneous comment of a sports star who has not weighed the impact of his remarks.In the end, there is really only one argument sovereigntists can use to support their option, and that is the burning passion for something new.To succeed, they will have to extinguish \"the spark still burning in the hearts of most Quebecers for Canada.SHARON McCULLY THE COMPANY |S HAMPTON, REPOSITIONING, THE OTHER EMPLOYEES ARE BEING DOWNSIZED.YOU'RE BEING OUTPLACED, FIRED.Referendum highlights

troubles made headlines last week when the French- language service of the CBC anrounced it was investigating an erroneous report the network broadcast about Quebec Liberals favoring a bilingual province \u2014 something tantamount to political suicide in pre-referendum Quebec.Radio-Canada asked Jean Bédard, a senior reporter who broke the story, to stay at home until he and three other journalists meet with management.Bédard, senior anchorman Bernard Derome \u2014 considered the French-language equivalent of CBC\u2019s Peter Mansbridge \u2014 and two senior editors will meet with management today.AXES TO GRIND The story hasn\u2019t done much to erase the perception that English- and French-language reporters have axes to grind.Ever since Pierre Trudeau suggested Radio-Canada was a nest of separatists in the 1970s, there has been a perception outside Quebec that most francophone reporters are sympathetic to sovereignty.But in Quebec, it's the anglophone media that get accused most often of wearing their hearts on their sleeves.\u201cIt\u2019s the opposite that\u2019s true,\u201d says Gérald LeBlanc, who writes about English-speaking Canada for Montreal La Presse.\u201cI think the majority of (francophone) journalists are still sove- reigntists \u2014 but not in their work,\u201d says LeBlanc, who supports independence.\u201cFor a Canadian outside Quebec, Quebec's separation is a bad thing and that\u2019s reflected in all the papers.\u201d Charles Bury, editor of the Record in Quebec\u2019s Eastern Townships, says there\u2019s a double standard when it comes to French and English journalists showing their political colors.That means it's NOT OK for francophone journalists who favor federalism show any trace of it in their work.But it\u2019s accepted that anglophone reporters can flaunt their federalist stripes.\u201cYes, it\u2019s a double standard.It\u2019s inevitable under the circumstances,\u201d says Bury, who\u2019s also board chairman of the Canadian Association of Journalists.Most of the editorial pages of the province\u2019s big-city dailies are usually pro-federalist, except for the nationalist Le Devoir in Montreal.Media mulls carrying tobacco ads By Jim Morris OTTAWA (CP) \u2014 Media organizations are trying to decide whether to advertise tobacco products now that the Supreme Court of Canada has struck down the law that prevented it.Most said they haven't decided yet.People who watch the advertising industry said a blitz of tobacco ads isn\u2019t likely.In an informal survey of several media outlets Friday, the Toronto Sun was the only one which said it would accept tobacco advertising.\u201cOur position has always been we would take advertising that is legal,\u201d said Mike Strobel, the paper's managing editor.\u201cWe'll take cigarette advertising.\u201d CTV offered no comment.The Edmonton Journal said no decision has been made.\u201cWe haven't had an opportunity to think about whether this is advertising we would carry and what the implication would be if we did or did not,\u201d said John Connolly, Journal director of advertising.TOO EARLY John Curzon said the CBC is studying the issue.\u201cNo decision has been made.It\u2019s much too early.\u201d In a 5-4 decision, the Supreme Court ruled Thursday the ban on all direct advertising of tobacco infringed on the Charter of Rights\u2019 guarantee of freedom of expression.Health Minister Diane Marleau said Friday she wants to study the court decision before discussing new regulations with the industry.\u201cI certainly wouldn't want us to bring forward new legislation that again would end up in the courts for another seven years.\u201cNow the decision is here, it will help us set the course and determine exactly how best to tackle this very serious issue.\u201d Suzanne Keller, vice-president of the Canadian Advertising Foundation, said some media outlets refused to carry tobacco ads even before the law was imposed in 1989.\u201cMaybe they would continue that policy even though it is now allowed,\u201d she said. The RECORD\u2014 Monday, September 25, 1995\u20147 Behind the News Bosnians plan to boycott peace talks From AP-Reuters-CP SARAJEVO, Bosnia- Herzegovina (CP) \u2014 Bosnian President Alija Izetbegovic has ordered his foreign minister to boycott peace talks planned for New York this week aimed at ending the war in Bosnia.Bosnian radio, quoting a statement from Izetbegovic\u2019s office, said he had instructed Foreign Minister Muhamed Sacirbey not to attend the Tuesday meeting with Croatian and Yugoslav ministers.However, Sacirbey said Sunday he might attend this week\u2019s peace talks in New York but that chances for an agreement were slim.His brief statement was issued in New York and Washington about the same time that his government in Sarajevo said it would boycott the talks.\u201cPresident (Alija) Izetbego- vic has instructed me to proceed with the negotations scheduled for Tuesday, Sept.26, on \u2018the basis of the document worked on between our government and the American negotiating team on Friday,\u201d Sacri- bey said.BIG CHANGES But he said that the Serbs had demanded \u201cwholesale changes which radically alter the agreement\u201d on the sovereignty of Bosnia and therefore would \u201cnegate agreement for Tuesday\u2019s meeting.\u201d Bosnian radio said Sacirbey was ordered to stay away from the meeting because of a \u201clack of progress in discussion on constitutional issues\u201d pertaining to a proposed peace plan.Tuesday\u2019s meeting was the next stage in an initiative driven by United States envoy Richard Holbrooke.It was to have been attended by foreign ministers from Yugoslavia, which represents the rebel Bosnian Serbs, and of Bosma and Croatia.The Bosnians, allied with the Croats, have been gaining ground recently in their war against rebel Bosnian Serbs.In the past, it has the Serbs who have been reluctant to negotia- Major developments Sunday.By Reuters Major developments in former Yugoslavia on Sunday: \u2014 Bosnian President Alia Izetbegovic announces he is pulling the country out of New York peace talks scheduled for Tuesday, a major setback to the peace process.\u2014 However, Bosnian Foreign Minister Muhamed Sacirbey issued a brief statement in New York and Washington saying he might attend the peace talks in New York but that chances for an agreement were slim.\u2014 Bosnian government and Serb media each accuse the other side of launching fresh attacks in northern Bosnia on the key corridor linking the embattled Bosnian Serb stronghold of Ban- ja Luka with the mass of Serb-held territory in the east.\u2014 In ZAGREB, Bosnian Prime Minister Haris Silajdzic says Bosnian government troops will pursue their advance on Banja Luka in northwest Bosma until the Serbs demilitarize the town and stop the \u201cgenocide\u201d against the Bosnian Muslims.Bosnian forces had recently reported finding a three-year-old mass grave containing 540 bodies at Krasulje, a village captured from the Serbs.te.The three had agreed earlier in Geneva on basic principles for a peace envisaging a Bosnia containing a Serb mini-state as a way to end the ethnic civil war.They had accepted the de facto division of Bosnia under a plan alloting 51 per cent of territory to the Muslim-Croat federation and 49 per cent to the Serbs.DISCUSS DETAILS The next stage in the process should have started to discuss constitutional details.Prime Minister Haris Sila- jdzic said his government backed out because it was not happy with last meeting between Holbrooke and Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic.Silajdzic said the meeting failed to provide two clear guarantees: that Bosnia would remain a sovereign state within its borders and that the Bosnian Serb state would not be allowed to separate and join Serbia.Israel, PLO reach West Bank autonomy pact By Donna Abu Nasr TABA, Egypt (AP) \u2014 Israel and the PLO \u2014 after all-night talks and an angry walkout by Yasser Arafat \u2014 agreed Sunday to sign a pact ending almost three decades of Israeli occupation of West Bank cities.The agreement, the second phase of the 1993 Israel-PLO peace treaty, was hailed by Palestinian leaders as a major step toward their own state.Other Palestinians said it gave them too little, and militant Jewish settlers promised to do anything necessary to scuttle it.The 460-page pact allows for Palestinian self-government in 30 per cent of the West Bank \u2014 containing most of its Arab population \u2014 after a step-by- step Israeli pullout.Israel has occupied the lands since the 1967

talks that capped more than 80 hours of tense negotiations.Earlier Sunday, a shouting match erupted between Arafat and Israeli Foreign Minister Shimon Peres and the PLO leader stormed out.Arafat was angry that Israel refused to expand the borders of the self-government enclave in Jericho.There were also reports he wanted a more specific timetable for the release of about 5,000 Palestinians in Israeli jails.But Arafat relented after Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin promised to discuss the fighting on the same fronts, to prisoner issue in Washington before Thursday's signing, Palestinian sources said.Other officials said talks got back on track after intervention by U.S.Mideast co-ordinator Dennis Ross and Egyptian officials.Peres called the accord \u201chistory in the real meaning of

Te.I -\u2014 Farm and Business 8\u2014The RECORD\u2014Monday, September 25, 1995 35,000 too high, lobby says Banks reject job loss prediction TORONTO (CP) \u2014 Canada\u2019s major banks played down predictions last Thursday that thousands of jobs will be swept aside as part of a global banking revolution.The banking industry is the third-largest private sector employer in Canada.A study by Deloitte and Touche says within 10 years, half of all Canadian branches will close \u2014 and 35,000 jobs vanish \u2014 as banking by telephone, bank machine, home computer and smart cards becomes the norm.Most banks, after taking a few days to chew over the report, challenged the bottom line.\u201cWe agree the face of banking will change dramatically but does that mean radically fewer branches and employees?\u201d said Joe Barbera of Bank of Montreal.\u201cWe don\u2019t think so.\u201cMuch of their model for the study is based on U.S.and British experiences.And the geography of this country .leads us to believe there won't be those kinds of changes here.\u201d The industry\u2019s lobby group was also skeptical.\u201cI don\u2019t know what the future holds, but if you think back 10 years you had people in the bank adding up columns of figures manually,\u201d said Christine Kuch of the Canadian Bankers Association.\u201cYou'd have thought that computerization would have eliminated some jobs, but it hasn\u2019t.The clerk with the pencil behind the ear is no longer there but that job has been shifted.\u201d Deloitte and Touche, international management consultants, spent over a year preparing the 51-page report.It said the proportion of transactions carried out in branches has fallen about 25 per cent over the past three years.And it\u2019s expected to drop another 25 per cent within the next five years.The Big Six banks employed about 165,000 people in 1994 \u2014 down from 173,000 in 1991.Wayne Snider, head of Deloitte and Touche\u2019s financial services division in

\u2014 The Supreme Court's decision to quash the federal law banning almost all cigarette advertising, is being welcomed by tobacco companies and media outlets hungry for new revenue.But don\u2019t expect a rush of splashy cigarette ads, or a return to broadcast advertising, which the tobacco industry voluntarily dropped in 1972.And ad executives anticipate they will recoup only a fraction of the $100 million spent each year on tobacco ads before the Tobacco Products Control Act banned them in 1989.And industry officials predict ads of the future will be restrained and conservative, in keeping with Canadians\u2019 cautious view of smoking and its health implications.Tobacco marketers may even launch smoking- moderation campaigns, similar to those in the liquor and beer industries,

RJR Macdonald Inc., the smallest of the country\u2019s three major tobacco producers, pointed to the years prior to the ad ban.\u201cOur advertising was moderate,\u201d she said.\u201cI don\u2019t think it would be construed as splashy.I don\u2019t foresee that we're going to do things a whole lot differently.\u201d The lifting of the ad ban follows the Supreme Court's ruling Thursday that the Tobacco Products Control Act violates the tobacco companies\u2019 constitutional right of free speech.The legislation had been challenged by Imperial Tobacco Ltd.of Montreal, the country\u2019s largest producer, and RJR of Toronto.Rothmans Benson & Hedges Inc.of Toronto is the other key manufacturer.Ottawa ends Petro-Can share sale TORONTO (CP) \u2014 The federal government wound up its public sale of Petro-Canada shares Friday, bringing in about $1.8 billion.About 50 per cent of the shares in the Calgary-based oil company were put up for grabs, amounting to 123.9 million shares, including 5.9 million from an over-allotment option.The share price was set at $14.625.Ottawa, which had held 70 per cent of Petro-Canada, will retain 20 per cent of the common stock.Non-residents will hold 23.2 per cent.Non- Canadians are not allowed to hold more than 25 per cent of the voting shares of Petro- Canada.\u201cWe are excited about the closing of this offering because we believe that new as well as existing shareholders will now be able to realize the true value of their Petro-Canada shares,\u201d said Jim Stanford, president of Petro-Canada.> 7 x for letting our advertisers

talking from his office at St.Francis Xavier University in Antigonish, N.S.He wrote The Glace Bay Miner's Museum, a powerful love story set against the darkness and disasters of mining life, over 20 years ago.It was inspired by a visit to the Glace Bay Miners\u2019 Museum after Currie had been away from home.\u201cIt just occurred to me when I went in.There are some things museums can\u2019t

St.John\u2019s Anglican Church celebrates 150 years of worship and fellowship 1992.By Phyllis Emery Skeats WATERVILLE \u2014 As early as 1818 there was a group of supporters of the Church of England in Waterville, served by the circuit missionaries from Hatley, Stanstead and Sherbrooke.As Wa- terville was part of the Compton circuit in thesc carly years, Reverend Charles James Stewart quite possibly was one of the travelling missionaries, as he had shown an interest in both the Compton and Hatley missions.He oversaw the building of the Old North Church in Hatley in 1818, and was to become the second Bishop of Quebec in 1826.While Bishop he took an interest in Charles Peter Reid who was preparing for the ministry, and the son of a fellow clergyman, Reverend James Reid.Bishop Stewart eventually ordained C.P.Reid in June, 1835.It was while this young clergyman was serving in Compton in 1840 that regular services were begun in the Old School House on the site of the later Jubilee Hall in Waterville.Rev.Reid was stationed in Compton from 1840- 1854.He had been appointed the first resident Anglican rector in Compton in 1840, and remained there for fourteen years.It was under his charge that the church building was erected in Waterville in 1845, to be called \u201cSaint John the Evangelist\u201d.The first meeting to plan for this undertaking was held in October 1843.The site was donated by the Hon.Hollis Smith, and in the winter of 1844, stone was drawn by Anthony Wiggett and George Moore.In the winter of 1844-45, Robert Hawse gave a large quantity of logs which were cut, drawn on the ice and floated down the Coaticook River in the spring.The church was erected in the spring of 1845, and in the summer of 1846 the interior was completed for the first service held that October.In the early years, until 1863, Waterville Parish was served by clergy from Compton.From 1863 to 1889 the clergymen who served Hatley Parish also held services in Waterville, and in 1889 Waterville separated from Hatley and became connected with North Hatley and Eustis.Reverend I.M.Thompson was the first resident clergyman in Waterville.It is interesting to note that William Wiggett Sr.was church St.John\u2019s Anglican Church, Waterville, Que.June 18, warden for at least 15 years and R.J.Walsh served as warden for 26 years.Mrs.Charlotte Howse served in various capacities including overseeing the Sunday School and Thrift Shop for approximately 40 years.Rev.E.K.Wilson and Rev.Keith Perry-Gore have served the longest number of years as clergymen, with Rev.Wilson serving 22 and Rev.Perry-Gore serving 21 years.In 1897 the need for a parish hall became evident, and a lot was acquired next to the church which was the site of the Old School House where the early services had been held.The school house was moved and Jubilee Hall was erected.The Jubilee Hall was built to commemorate the 60th anniversary of Queen Victoria's accession to the British throne in 1837.The sale of the Hall in June 1976 ended a long history in the life of the Parish of St.John\u2019s.The sale was completed to aid in the financing of the construction of a new church hall underneath the church building, which was moved from its foundation in July for the construction of the new hall and kitchen.The new addition was dedicated on November 14, 1976, with Bishop T.J.Matthews officiating and Reverend Guy Marston, a former clergyman, giving the address.Rev.ILM.Thompson was the first clergyman to reside in Water- ville in 1889.A house was rented for the clergy\u2019s use until efforts were made to raise the funds to build a parsonage.In 1901 the cellar was readied and the house completed the following year.The resident ministers, who also served North Hatley and Eustis, continued until 1946 when North Hatley built a parsonage and Reverend Mark Beaufoy became the first resident rector in North Hatley, still serving the three parishes.The decision was made to either rent or sell St.John's parsonage in 1951 and after 10 years of rental, it was sold in 1961.As St.John\u2019s congregation prepares for celebrations to mark 150 years, it is interesting to note that for all those ways.In 1897 the need for a parish hall became evident, and a lot was acquired next to the church which was the site of the Old School House where the early

St.John's parsonage in 1951 and after 10 years of rental, it was sold in 1961.As St.John\u2019s congregation prepares for celebrations to mark 150 years it is interesting to note that for all those years only 20 clergymen served the parish, attesting to the loyalty they held for St.John\u2019s, along with the other two churches later on.The continuity of the wardens, the sidesmen and caretakers is evident.The Ladies Guild, the Sunday School, the Youth Groups, the organist and choirs, together with other committees, served long and well! An Historical Display will tell the story of the church.Entitled \u201cThe Building, The Ministers, The People\u201d, the display will be part of the festivities to be held in St.John\u2019s Anglican Church in Waterville on October 1.1995.The afternoon will begin at 2:00 p.m.with the celebration of Evensong led by Reverend Keith Perry-Gore, accompanied by the organist and choir from North Hatley.There will also be a guest organist, Anthony Davidson is a direct descendant of William Wiggett Sr., one of the founding members, whose son William Wiggett Jr.was the first person baptized in the church in 1855.Evensong will be followed by the opening of the display with a \u201cVernissage\u201d.The refreshments will be served by the Ladies\u2019 Guild and the wardens.The wardens and congregation, along with Reverend Perry-Gore, invite all members, past members, and friends of St.John\u2019s to join in celebrating 150 years of the church.Enjoy!

malpractice system is making things tougher for doctors.This reaction is typical of the AMA.Ann Landers When will doctors stop pointing fingers at lawyers when there are medical mistakes?The plaintiffs\u2019 lawyers work at no charge while the lawyers for the doctors are making millions defending them for astro-nomical fees.If doctors would admit their mistakes instead of hiring high-priced attorneys who drag out lawsuits for years, justice would be served at a much lower cost.It's time the AMA got behind a system to evaluate hospital quality and inform consumers about what they are getting.We would all benefit from the safer treatment and reduced cost.In the meantime, here are some suggestions for readers who want to stay out of harm's way: 1.Ask if your doctor is

RECORD\u2014Monday, September 25, 1995 Not much has changed in Montreal Patrick Roy is still key to thin Canadiens lineup By Bill Beacon MONTREAL (CP) \u2014 There was surprisingly little upheaval after the Montreal Canadiens missed the playoffs for the first time in 25 years last spring.No heads among the managerial or coaching staff rolled.Only a handful of fringe players and unhappy right winger Brian Bellows were dispatched to other teams.So the Canadiens are to begin the season with a team not much different than the one that finished 18-23-7 in the lockout-shortened 1995 campaign, including a league- worst 3-18-3 record on the road.And yet, optimism abounds at the 71-year-old Forum, where the Canadiens will play their first 31 home games before moving into a new 21,361-seat facility in March.À trade last April 5 that brought Pierre Turgeon and Vladirmr Malakhov from the Captain Mike Keane on line with Saku Koivu.New York Islanders in exchange for Kirk Muller, Mathieu Schneider and Craig Darby has the team atwitter at the promise of a new accent on attacking hockey.And the arrival of gifted but small centre Saku Koivu from Finland only heightens the Hab facts Some facts and figures on the 1995-96 Montreal Canadiens: Head Coach: Jacques Demers 1994-95 record: 18-23-7, fifth in Northeast Division, out of playoffs.Key Acquisitions: rookie centre Saku Koivu, draft pick from Finland; defenceman Stephane Quintal, trade from Winnipeg for second round draft pick.Key losses: right winger Brian Bellows, traded to Tampa Bay for centre Marc Bureau.Ones to watch: Koivu, goaltender Patrick Roy and top line of Pierre Turgeon, Vincent Damphousse and Mark Recchi.Noteable: Canadiens to leave 71-year-old Forum and play first game in a new 21,361-seat arena on March 16.expectations.\u201cHow many trades can you make,\u201d coach Jacques Demes asked.\u201cLast year, we used 11 centres, 12 defencemen.There were 40 players in and out of the lineup.There were nights when it looked like we had no system.That's not good for the team.\u201d In a bid to get bigger and better able to win tough road games, general manager Serge Savard sent Bellows to Tampa Bay for checking forward Marc Bureau.He picked up big defenceman Stephane Quintal from Winnipeg for a second round draft pick.But the Canadiens lack a proven scorer to convert Koi- vu\u2019s clever passes on the second line and appear short on gritty veterans to lead the team through the inevitable setbacks.They have an excellent first line with Turgeon, Mark Rec- chi and Vincent Damphousse.all potential 100-point men.After that, only hard-nosed winger Mike Keane and steady Benoit Brunet are sure things.Keane, the captain, is slated to play alongside Koivu, with second-year man Brian Savage moving to left wing from centre.Canada finally advances to Davis Cup Group 1 level By Ron Sudlow VICTORIA (CP) \u2014 A high first-serve percentage and hard returns ripped off his two- handed backhand carried Sebastien Laureau to a straight-set victory over Nico- Sébastien Lareau las Lapentti in Sunday's American Zone Group 2 Davis Cup final.The 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 win by the Boucherville, Que., native clinched the best-of-five series against Ecuador and promoted Canada to Group 1 play next year.Lareau raised his service game to a 66 per cent accuracy rate on his first serve.\u201cThat's well above average for such a speedy serve,\u201d said Canadian captain Louis Cayer.The win for Lareau was a big reversal from Friday night's four-set loss to Pablo Campana when the Canadian struggled with unforced errors.\u201cToday, I really kept my cool the whole match and stayed focused on what I wanted to do,\u201d said Lareau, who now has an 8-7 Davis Cup singles record.\u201cObviously when I'm serving like that, it's a lot easier because 1 was winning my serves easily.I had so many break points, so every service game he had was always tough.\u201d Daniel Nestor, of Toronto, retired with a pulled leg muscle after winning the first set against Pablo Campana in the remaining reverse singles match.Canada won the series series 3-2.The confident Lareau got to the net quickly for a service break volley in the ninth game of the first set.In the second set, Lapentti saved six break points before he was unable to handle a hard Lareau forehand to his feet that gave the Canadian another service break, again in the ninth game.Lareau broke early in the third set with overhead and forehand winners in the fifth game.A third line could include Brunet, Bureau and perhaps big right winger Turner Stevenson, who is coming off a promising rookie campaign.There are no sure bets for a fourth line.The Canadiens feel they have depth on defence, but Malakhov, who is supposed to be the big gun, has been brilliant one night and invisible the next.Lyle Odelein, Jean-Jacques Daigneault, Yves Racine, Quintal, Patrice Brisebois, Peter Popovic and rookie Marko Kiprusoff round out a decent, but hardly overpowering defence.The big question remains in goal.Three-time Vezina Trophy winner Patrick Roy, who turns 30 on Oct.5., is coming off perhaps the worst of his 10 National Hockey League seasons, with a 17-20-6 record.If Roy cannot return to playing his best, making the top eight in a tough conference won't be easy.Backup Ron Tugnutt was let go and will be replaced by either of rookies Martin Bro- chu or Patrick Labrecque.Oilers perfect In pre-season VANCOUVER (CP) \u2014 The Edmonton Oilers maintained a perfect pre-season record with a 4-1 win over the Vancouver Canucks in an NHL exhibition game Sunday night.The Oilers, who beat the Canucks 6-3 in Edmonton on Wednesday, held a big edge in play, outshooting Vancouver 29-17.After a scoreless first period, rookie left-winger Miroslav Satan converted a pass from defenceman Jiri Slegr on a power-play to give the Oilers a 1-0 lead at 3:13 of the second.Edmonton rookie centre Tyler Wright scored at 6:03, when defenceman Fredrik Olausson\u2019s shot hit him and deflected past Vancouver goalie Kay Whitmore.Pavel Bure scored Vancouver\u2019s only goal just 15 seconds later, beating Slegr and going in alone on goalie Bill Ranford.Kirk Maltby scored the Oilers second power-play goal at 9:46 of the third period and Peter White added a late insurance goal at 18:04.The Oilers dominated the third period as Vancouver was unable to manage a shot on goal until only 2:42 remained in the game.Bill Ranford and Joaquin Gage shared the goaltending duties for Edmonton.Whitmo- re and Mike Fountain split the goaltending for Vancouver.The victory improved the Oilers\u2019 pre-season record to 4-0-1.The Canucks dropped to 2-2.Panthers 7 Jets 0 BRANDON, Man.(CP) \u2014 A four-point night by Jason Woolley powered the Florida Panthers to a 7-0 victory over the Winnipeg Jets in an NHL exhibition game Sunday night.Woolley, who used to play with the Canadian national team, ripped a pair of goals and added two assists for the Panthers, who led by period scores of 2-0 and 4-0.Rookie forward Jason Podol- lan scored a pair of goals, while Bill Lindsay, David Nemiro- vsky and Johan Garpenlov chipped in singles.Winnipeg's goaltending tandem of Scott Langkow and Nikolai Khabibulin struggled, allowing seven goals on just 24 shots.Meanwhile, the Panthers\u2019 veteran stopper John Vanbies- brouck had a solid performance, blocking 35 Winnipeg drives.Sabres 6 Penguins 3 BUFFALO, N.Y.(AP) \u2014 Mike Peca scored two third- period goals Sunday night, leading the Buffalo Sabres to a 6-3 NHL exhibition victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins.Peca, acquired from Vancouver in the draft-day trade that sent Alexander Mogilny to the Canucks, gave the Sabres (3-1-0) a 4-3 lead with 6:32 left in the third period and added an empty-net goal.Rangers 4 Ducks 4 ANAHEIM, Calif.(CP) \u2014 Unanswered third-period goals by Luc Robitaille and Ray Ferraro, with his second goal of the game, enabled the New York Rangers to escape with a 4-4 NHL pre-season tie Sunday night with the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim.: Valeri Karpov, with two goals, Patrik Carnback and Chad Kilger scored for Anaheim, which led 3-1 after one period. The RECORD\u2014Monday, September 25, 1995\u201417 Sports Expos Win two of three in Atlanta Braves down Montreal with 10th-inning rally ATLANTA (AP) \u2014 The Atlanta Braves ended their regular-season home schedule with a flourish, another furious finish.Mike Devereaux hit a two- out, two-run single up the middle in the 10th inning Sunday, rallying the Braves over the Montreal Expos 5-4.Devereaux, who doubled and scored the tying run in the ninth, gave the Braves their 25th win in their final at-bat, 16 of them since July 4.\u201cWe were talking about it on the bench,\u201d said Devereaux, \u201cthat this was our last game at home and we needed to win this game.\u201d \u201cIt was really fitting to end the season that way at home,\u201d teammate Chipper Jones said.The Expos took a 4-3 lead in the 10th on rookie Yamil Beni- tez\u2019s RBI single off Pedro Bor- bon (2-2).Jeff Blauser drew a one- walk in the Atlanta 10th from Dave Leiper (0-2) and pinch- hitter Marquis Grissom grounded into a force play.After Rafael Belliard pinch-ran for Grissom, Luis Polonia hit a double.Devereaux followed by grounding a single to centre for the win.\u201cLeiper made a good pitch \u2014 he got beat by a funny hopper,\u201d Montreal manager Felipe Alou said.Devereaux doubled in the ninth, made it to third base with one out and scored on Mike Kelly's sacrifice fly.Rondell White began the Montreal 10th by doubling on the first pitch from Borbon, moved up on a sacrifice by David Segui and scored when Benitez chopped a single over the Braves\u2019s drawn-in infield.Segui had three hits and drove in two runs.He led off the eighth with a home run against Greg McMichael for a 3-2 lead.On Saturday night, McMichael gave up a tiebrea- king, eighth-inning home run to White in Montreal's 5-2 win.\u201cIt was almost a good wee- Sacrifice BOSTON (AP) \u2014 Rick Agui- lera needed an inning of work.He got it, but he also got a loss.Pinch-hitter Carlos Delgado\u2019s sacrifice fly in the ninth inning Sunday gave the Toronto Blue Jays a 2-1 victory over the Boston Red Sox.Joe Carter walked to lead off the inning, stole second and went to third on a single by pinch-hitter Shawn Green.He scored when Delgado hit a fly ball to the warning track in left against Aguilera (3-3).\u201cI just wanted to get him one inning of work, and then he kend,\u201d said Segui.\u201cTwo out of three against that club would be something.We'll try to finish up strong.\u201d The Expos are battling Florida and New York to keep out of the East basement.The Braves tied it 2-2 in the seventh on an RBI single by Javier Lopez.Lopez also drove in Atlanta\u2019s first run in the fifth inning with a double.The Expos scored off Kent Mercker in the fourth on a solo home run by Mike Lansing and in the fifth on doubles by White and Segui.Montreal rookie Tavo Alvarez retired the first 12 Braves in order.He gave up three hits, walked none and struck out six in six innings.Perez to ATLANTA (AP) \u2014 Rookie pitcher Carlos Perez of the Montreal Expos remained in police custody Sunday, more than 24 hours after his arrest on charges of rape and aggravated sodomy.Team officials

LENNOXVILLE \u2014 The Champlain Cougars beat the André Grasset Phénix 31-15 in a clumsily-played game Saturday marked by penalties and turnovers.Champlain improved to 3-1 at the halfway point of the CEGEP AAA football league season with the victory.\u201cIt was a sloppy game,\u201d acknowledged Cougar head coach Tony Addona.\u201cWe made some mistakes.There are things we're going to have to correct.\u201d Champlain broke onto the scoresheet 3:57 into the first Teddy Michel Joseph (No.7 led Champlain\u2019 s defence, sacking André Grasset quarterback Juan-Carlos Chiodoni three times.Ex-LA teams continue to win in new By The Associated Press All this comes a bit late for NFL fans in Los Angeles.The Rams, now in St.Louis, went to 4-0 Sunday with a 34-28 victory over Chicago, while the Raiders, back in Oakland, went to 31 by scoring 48 \u2018straight points in a 48-17 victory over Philadelphia.\u201cI felt my first game here that this was a team that had ¥* the potential to go the playoffs,\u201d said Rams quarterback Mark Rypien, who replaced Chris Miller late in the game.In other NFL games, it was quarier when quarterback Frédéric Therrien found slotback Mike Juhasz open over the middle for a 68-yard pass-and- run play.Juhasz, also the Cougars\u2019s kicker, tacked on the convert to give his team an early 7-0 lead.Therrien, who was 11-0f-19 on the afternoon for 203 yards passing, keyed the next Cougar scoring drive with a 19-yard scramble to bring the ball to the André Grasset 12-yard line.On a third-and-9, he connected with Scott Regim- bald for an 11-yard touchdown pass.Juhasz again converted the major.+ Oakland 48, Philadelphia 17; Minnesota 44, Pittsburgh 24; New York Giants 45, New Orleans 29; Tampa Bay 14, Washington 6; Atlanta 13, New York Jets 3; San Diego

Rams won their fourth in a row by remaining turnover-free for the fourth straight game, scoring on Toby Wright's 73-yard fumble Regimbald, a CEGEP all- star last season, had three receptions in the game for 56 yards, while Juhasz also had 3 catches for 85 yards.LITTLE THINGS \u201cOffensively, we had some big plays, but we didn\u2019t sustain too many drives.\u201d Addona complained.\u201cWe need to work on the little things to keep our drives alive.\u201d Offesively Champlain was missing its top rusher, rookie tailback Jeffrey Pierre, and Therrien was starting his first CEGEP game.Phénix running back Jean- Francois Gardy scored on a five-yard rush early in the scond quarter to cut Champlain\u2019s lead to 14-7, and a single off a missed 42-yard field goal made the deficit 14-8.Champlain's Chris Jones added the team\u2019s third touchdown with 24 seconds left in the first half, as he carried the ball from seven yards out.ON FIRE The Cougars started the third quarter on fire, adding 10 points to their lead in the first five minutes.On their first possession, throwing from midfield, Ther- rien completed a pass to Regimbald.As the big slotback ran he was hit and coughed up the ball.Fortunately it popped into the hands of speedy Cougar receiver Donald Welman who ran the football all the way to the André Grasset three- yard line before he was chased down and tackled.Therrien carried the ball into the end zone on a three- yard quarterback sneak, making the score 28-8.On the ensuing kick off, Champlain surprised André Gresset with a short kick that was recovered by Regimbald.Three incomplete passes did not improve their field position, but the Cougars were deep enough in Phénix territory to allow Juhasz to kick a 34-yard field goal.André Gresset\u2019s Nelson return and three TD passes from Miller before the injury.The Bears (2-2) led 21-17 at halftime on TD passes by Eric Kramer to Keith Jennings, Curtis Conway and Michael

Cougars win.Piché scored on a seven-yard touchdown pass early in the fourth quarter to bring the score to 31-15.STRONG DEFENCE Champlain\u2019s defense, led by Teddy-Michel Joseph who had three sacks and eight tackles on the day, would not let the Phénix close the gap any further.The Cougars\u2019s defence was impressive despite injuries that deprived the team of several key players.Team captains Neil Myers, a defensive lineman, and free safety Pat Boies were hurt, as were starting linebackers Ben Hoffman and downs on fumble returns by linebacker Rob Fredrickson and defensive tackle Austin Robbins.Vikings 44 Steelers 24 Rookie defensive backs Orlando Thomas and Corey Fuller each scored off turnovers while Robert Smith had 115 yards, including a 58-yard TD run for Minnesota (2-2), which

good position,\u201d Addona said.\u201cDespite our injuries, I think we\u2019ll be okay.We just need to improve our drives offensively and defensively prepare a little more.We had quite a few people hurt and we gave up some big plays on the defense because of this.But when we get them back, we'll be better.\u201d homes Giants 45 Saints 29 Rodney Hampton ran for 149 yards and set a team record

1995\u201419 Sports Ottawa over Bishop\u2019s 34-28 in Lennoxville Punt shy Gaiters drop game to Gee Gees By Robert Matheson OTTAWA \u2014 The Bishop\u2019s Gaiters gambled and it backfired, allowing the Ottawa Gee Gees to win 34-28 on the final play of Saturday\u2019s football game.The Bishop\u2019s coaching staff decided to go on third-and- inches on their own 38-yard line with 23 seconds remaining in a game tied at 28-28.Running back Shane Thompson, who had two touchdowns in the game, was stuffed for a loss on the play.The gamble gave Ottawa an unexpected chance to improve to 3-0 on the season with 18 seconds remaining and the ball on the Bishop\u2019s 37-yard line.Gee Gee quarterback Steve Clarke hit Chris Evraire on 12-yard pass and then tried to find Ousmane Tounkara in the end zone.Ottawa head coach Larry Ring sent kicker Darren McNeice in to punt for the single point and the win.McNeice, who was standing near the Bishop's 40-yard line, was actually short of the end zone with his kick, but it was bobbled by the Gaiters return man.Ottawa linebacker Clive Lloyd pounced on the ball in the end zone for a game- winning touchdown as time expired.The Gee Gees botched the attempted convert, but it was academic.\u201cI was determined to nail the receiver in the end zone for the Tough weekend tak single point.But he took his eyes off the ball and messed up.I saw the ball and fell on it,\u201d Lloyd said of his first-ever touchdown.Ring was happy to pull out the wild victory, but said he was surprised with how it happened.\u201cI figured they had come back and salvaged the tie.I thought they might just kick it and take the tie.I guess they figured we have good punt returners and can strike quick,\u201d Ring said.\u201cI don\u2019t know, I'm not going to second guess (Bishop's head coach) Ian (Breck).He did what he did, and thank God he did it and we stopped them.\u201d Ottawa\u2019s quick strike ability and strong special teams led to two of the Gee Gees\u2019s touch- Larry Ring.\u201cI was an ugly win.\u2019 downs in the game.Clarke combined with Tounkara for an 87-yard touchdown pass on Ottawa's first play after the Gaiters overcame an 18-0 deficit and took the lead 20-18 on a 16-yard pass from Trevor Lovig to Dave Butler.Angelo Miceli had one of his two first-half touchdowns on a 40-yard punt return midway through the second quarter.Miceli\u2019s touchdowns, a 44-yard field goal by McNeice, two converts and a single gave Ottawa an 18-0 lead with 7:40 to go in the first half.The Gaiters finally got rolling late in the half, starting a drive from Ottawa's 45-yard line with 55 seconds remaining.Nigel McGilvery made two spectacular catches during the drive, the last for a 15-yard touchdown from Lovig.Bishop\u2019s missed a two-point convert attempt and trailed 18-6 at the half.\u201cWe shouldn\u2019t have put ourselves in a situation like that.We should have played better in the first quarter and maybe got a couple more points, so it wouldn\u2019t come down to the fourth quarter,\u201d Lovig said.\u201cPersonally, the first quarter was probably the worst quarter of my life,\u201d Lovig added.\u201cThe best thing I do is I read defences and in the first quarter I wasn't doing that.And I threw three terrible interceptions and that cost us a lot.\u201d Lovig recovered from the interceptions to lead Bishop's es toll on BU women\u2019s soccer chances By J.D.Keyes LENNOXVILLE \u2014 The Bishop\u2019s women\u2019s soccer team had a rough weekend, losing 7-0 to both the Sherbrooke Vert et Or on Friday and to the Laval Rouge et Or on Sunday.\u201cIt was a tough weekend,\u201d Sophie Gailloux.Aiming for playoff spot.said Bishop\u2019s head coach Sophie Gailloux.\u201cWe were missing three girls who had a field trip for biology class and they would've failed the course without it, plus we had a few injuries too.\u201d In Sunday\u2019s loss to Laval, the Gaiters lack of depth showed in the first half.Laval led 5-0 at the game\u2019s midpoint.STARTED SLOWLY \u201cWe started slowly and we had problems supporting each other on the field,\u201d remarked Gailloux.The Gaiters put together a much better second half, giving up only two goals, including one and that was accidentally put in the Bishop's net by a Gaiter player.\u201cLaval is a big university with thousands of people,\u201d pointed out Gailloux.\u201cMost of their players play with the senior league's Quebec Dynamo in the summer so they are pretty experienced.\u201d \u201cWe came out with courage in the second half and played better.\u201d Despite the lopsided score, goalkeeper Beth Miller played another fine game for the Gaiters as she was under constant pressure all afternoon.Fourth- year defensive captain Rachel Harrison was an inspirational leader to her teammates as well.SHERBROOKE WINS Friday evening, in torrential rain conditions, the Gaiters conceded a sloppily-played game to the Université de Sherbrooke also by a 7\u20140 margin.The weekend losses leave Bishop\u2019s with a 1-4 record in league play.However coach Gailloux isn\u2019t ready to write off the season just yet: \u201cWe're hoping to finish in fourth place and grab the last playoff spot.There are seven teams in this league; we know we can beat UQAM and we've tried UQTR.We're gon- ning to know when we play Concordia this weekend how we rank.\u201d to three touchdowns in the second half and actually scrambled for what appeared to be a first down on second- and-one with 30 seconds in the game.Bishop's got an unfriendly mark and Thompson was stopped on the next play.\u201cIt\u2019s tough to say because they don\u2019t havc chains on both sides,\u201d Lovig said.\u201cI thought 1 had it, but I should have played it a little tougher.I should have forced them to hit me out of bounds.\u201d Thompson capped two Bishop\u2019s drives in the second half.He burst in on a third-and-five late in the third quarter to cut the score to 18-13 after John Reid booted the convert.Thompson also scored on a seven-yard run with 2:20 to play.Lovig then hit Sandy Campbell on the two-point convert, tying the game 28-28.An unsuccessful Ottawa drive and the gamble by Bishop\u2019s led to the surprise ending.\u201cI'm happy we won, obviously.But we didn\u2019t play.I mean we were up 18-0 and we Trevor Lovig.\u2018We showed some character.\u2019 A could have put them away, Ring said.\u201cWe made a slew of mental errors and we let Bishop\u2019s back the game.\u201d Lovig said despite the stunning loss the Gaiters can find some positives in the game itself.\u201cToday really proved that we can play with any team in the league,\u201d he said.\u201cOttawa has the most talented players, but for us to come and give them a good scare at the end \u2014 that shows a lot of character.\u201d By The Canadian Press Must have been a full moon.On the same day the York Yoemen finally won a football game, the St.Mary's Huskies actually lost a home game.York won Saturday for the first time in 48 games, beating the Windsor Lancers 18-8 in CIAU football.That losing streak spanned seven years.St.Mary\u2019s home winning streak was even longer \u2014 | nine years.But it ended when the Acadia Axemen beat the Huskies 31-17.\u201cI knew the streak here had to be broken sooner or later,\u201d said John Kane, a fifth-year Axemen linebacker.\u201cIt\u2019s a great feeling and it\u2019s a great emotional boost for the rest of the season.\u201d Elsewhere in the CIAU, it was: Waterloo 27 Toronto 19; Laurier 17 Guelph 7; Western 49 McMaster 6; St.Weird weekend in CIAU Francis Xavier 27 Mount Allison 1; McGill 35 Concor- dia 14; Ottawa 34 Bishop's 28; Queen's 21 Carleton 2; and Saskatchewan 11 Alberta 9.In Toronto, Andre Batson returned two punts for touchdowns of 75 and 66 yards to seal the Yoemen\u2019s first win since Oct.1, 1988, when they edged the Waterloo Warriors 20-19 in Waterloo.York\u2019s other points came \u2026 on a 34-yard field goal by Angelo Giorgi as well as a single and a convert.Leonard Jean-Pierre carried 20 times for 147 yards.Windsor'\u2019s touchdown came on a six-yard pass to Rawl Banton from Andy Vasily.Both teams now have records of 1-2.In Waterloo, Ont., Laurier wide receiver Zach Treanor ran 36 yards for a TD on a faked field goal attempt as the Golden Hawks moved to 3-0.PORTES &
