There will be no economic association with the rest of Canada if Quebecers vote Yes in the Oct.30 referendum, Finance Minister Paul Martin said on a day that was dominated by the costs of independence.\u201cThis has nothing to do with emotion or revenge,\u201d he said Tuesday.But Quebecers would no longer have \u201cthe stability, the protection, the mutual assistance that is at the heart of the Canadian union.\u2019 \u201cAll of those benefits come from being Canadian.We don\u2019t offer them to Costa Ricans or Australians.Nor would they be available to citizens of a free

Richard Matticks, who police claim are leaders of Montreal's West End Gang.The Matticks and six others were charged with importing 37.5 tonnes of hashish from Uganda and Mozambique.The police investigation into the Matticks culminated on May 25,1994, when they raided 29 businesses and homes in the Montreal area and seized boxes of documents, $800,000 in cash, counterfeit money, a .38-calibre automatic pistol and a money- counting machine.Their case was based on electronic eavesdropping and the evidence of one of the accused, who agreed to testify for the Crown.But after months of pre-trial hearings, the case collapsed last June when Quebec Court Judge Micheline Corbeil- Laramée ruled that police planted evidence on a Montreal customs broker also charged in the case.Corbeil-Laramée ruled the tainted evidence contaminated the entire case and ordered a stay of proceedings for all the accused, including the Mad- dicks brothers.The Crown is appealing the

Quebecers in particular say they\u2019re unhappy with the Liberal party's attitude toward immigrants and ethnic communities.\u201cOur community has felt a blatant elitist arrogance on the part of the

referendum.\u201d Justice ministers plan attack on gun control OTTAWA (CP) \u2014 Justice ministers from the Prairies and two territories said Tuesday night they are firmly united in their opposition to a federal plan to register firearms.The ministers left a two-hour strategy session on the eve of Senate hearings into the federal gun-control legislation, saying they will launch an all- out attack on the registration provision.The ministers included aboriginal leaders \u2014 who appeared before senators Monday \u2014 in their discussions to formalize the position they plan to take today before the Senate committee studying Bill C-68.Manitoba's Rosemary Vodrey says compulsory gun registration will pull scarce resources away from the fight against crime.\u201cIt will take the police resources off the street.\u201d Bob Mitchell of Saskatchewan wondered how many police officers could be hired or how many battered womens\u2019 shelters could be funded for the estimated $85 million cost of gun registration.\u201cThis is just a silly way to expend this kind of money,\u201d said Mitchell, who fears the cost will be \u201cseveral times\u201d higher than the $85 million figure cited by Justice Minister Allan Rock.WORKERS: Continued from page one heavy-handed.: \u201cIt will have the opposite effect,\u201d said another worker.\u201cIt will push people toward the Yes side.\u201d Johnson

For anyone faced with a medical emergency in the next four days, the safest place to be will be the Delta Hotel convention centre in Sherbrooke.That's where some 600 emergency room doctors will be gathering for the annual convention of the Association des Médecins d\u2019Urgence du Québec.Beginning today and continuing until Saturday, the convention will feature 93 discussions and workshops on the latest in emergency life saving techniques.\u201cIt is not the kind of work for everyone,\u201d said emergency room doctor and association spokesman Dr.Jean-Pascal Ouellet.\u201cBut there are some of us who enjoy the unexpected.\u201d Ouellet and his colleague Dr.Robert Corbeil told of the convention at a press conference Tuesday at Hotel Dieu hospital.Each year the emergency room of Hotel Dieu treats some 75,000 patients.Ouellet said the Hotel Dieu is an example to other hospitals in Quebec, boasting both a high emergency patient load and a high level of successful treatment.The workshops at this association\u2019s 12th annual convention will be focussing on the latest developments in emergency treatment of cardio- pulminary disorders such as heart attacks or asthma, and pediatrics.Corbeil explained that each year the convention focuses on different topics, with each area coming up about once every five years.In the rapidly changing world of emergency room medicine, five years is a long time.\u201cThere are all kinds of new things,\u201d Corbeil said.\u201cEvery five years it's a whole new world.\u201d Ouellet said that new world is home to the 1500 emergency room doctors in Quebec.Often working odd hours, most won't be able to attend the whole convention because of their schedules.\u201cChances are if you aren't at the convention, then you're at work,\u201d he said.Corbeil said for the last three or four years there has been an increase in demand for emergency specialists and certain regions like Montreal are constantly searching for new doctors to fill openings in the emergency rooms.Corbeil and Ouellet said the idea of an emergency room doctor as someone with a medical specialty is relatively new.But it offers a lot to those who pursue it as a career.\u201cIt is one of the newest and fastest developing specialties in medicine,\u201d Ouellet said.\u201c- Problems can rang from the very simple to the highly complicated.From common to extremely rare.And the ability to make fast decisions is extremely important.\u201d Sgt.Arthur Boucher was decorated twice Magog parade to honor First World War hero MAGOG \u2014 This town

countries are not beggars looking for charity, says a director for USC Canada.\u201cThey would like to get on their own two feet and become self-reliant the same way we do,\u201d says Friederike Knabe, the director of Canadian programs for USC Canada.Knabe kicked off a public relations tour of Canada in the Eastern Townships this week.From its roots in the Unitarian Church some 50 years ago, the Unitarian Service Committee, now known as USC Canada, has grown into one of Canada\u2019s largest non-profit development organizations.USC currently runs programs in a half dozen developing countries in Africa and Asia.Founded by philanthropist Lotta Hitchmanova in 1945, the organization soon left its church roots in order to gain credibility as an nondenominational organization.Knabe, who will be visiting a number of schools and colleges while she\u2019s in the area, said she has two main goals: education and fundraising.\u201cI think it\u2019s important to explain to students that even if they don\u2019t have everything they want, compared to a lot of people, we have a lot,\u201d she said.$1 A DAY She backs up her presentations with statistics.Such as the fact that 1.2 billion people in the world \u2014 about 20 per cent of the world\u2019s population \u2014 live on less than a dollar a day.\u201cThat of course includes everything \u2014 housing, food, clothing, health care, education,\u201d she said.\u201cI think it\u2019s important for us to think about it sometimes.\u201d Knabe said that unlike many other charities, USC does not provide direct aid in the form of food, clothing or medical supplies.\u201cWhat we do is provide people with the means to change their situations,\u201d she said.She said the USC program revolves around skills training, and providing micro-businesses with access to credit.Some of the group\u2019s work involves teaching nutrition and health-care and monies are provided to communities to build schools.\u201cThat's our philosophy: helping people help themselves,\u201d she said.Knabe is full of success stories.One woman in Bangladesh, she recalls, knew the men in her village were going elsewhere to buy their fishing nets because their wasn\u2019t a local supplier.Through the USC, she received a small loan to buy rope, and got her whole family involved making and selling nets to local fishe-men.Now she\u2019s helping others get started in their own businesses.GOOD RISKS Knabe said such micro loans are excellent credit risks, with the percentage of loans repaid in full ranging between 96 and 98 per cent.The organization now funds projects in three countries in Asia including Bangladesh, Nepal and Indonesia, as well as three areas of Africa including Mali, Ethiopia and Southern Africa.All of the program are concentrated in very poor, mostly rural areas.The programs in various countries are run by local people, not by Canadians.Knabe said that once a year, she visits one of the projects to see what's happening.\u201cI see my role as bringing back information from beneficiaries of the program, to see how they feel, how life has changed for them,\u201d she said.Knabe said that about 75 per cent of funds raised go into program overseas.About 10 per cent goes to administration, 10 per cent to fundraising and the rest to various activities including educational tours like the one she\u2019s on.:

Under the Hedgerow or Bower, an apt description of the little glades that surround the 1.2 hectares (about 2.5 acres) of vines.The wine is only available at the vineyard, situated a few kilometres south of Sherbrooke on Dunant Road, the back road to the Montjoie ski hill.Vintner Alain Bélanger, one of the three partners, describes the wine as light yellow, limpid and bright.It has a \u2018nose\u2019 typical of Quebec wines, with an aroma of green apple, a bit of pear and a touch of peach \u2014 a good sign.The taste is light, fresh, \u2018even delicate,\u2019 with a little lingering frui- tiness at the end.\u2018We are very satisfied,\u2019 said Bélanger, who is a somalier when he is not making wine.One visitor compared the wine to the popular Muscadet, while another described it as \u2018well made\u2019.Alain Bélanger is very proud of Sous les Charmilles.Partners Roger Bélanger and Georges Ducharme show the grapes grown on Seyval vines to which are grafted Bacchus and Ortega varieties.The three partners began growing grapes on their farm nine years ago and last week got permission to sell their product.They are hoping to see the current production of 1700 bottles grow at the rate of from 5000 to 8000 bottles per year.RECORD PHOTOS: PERRY BEATON a TE The RECORD\u2014Wednesday, September 27, 1995\u20145 Behind the news Karadzic: \u2018another step toward peace\u2019 Ministers reach agreement on Bosnia UNITED NATIONS (AP) \u2014 The warring factions in former Yugoslavia reached agreement Tuesday on principles to end the conflict in Bosnia and to set up an elected presidency and a parliament.Announcing the agreement at the U.S.Mission to the United Nations, Assistant Secretary of State Richard Holbrooke called it \u201cone more important step on the road to peace\u201d but warned that \u201cwe still have a long and difficult path ahead of us.\u201d In the first Bosnian Serb reaction, the leader Radovan Karadzic hailed the agreement as \u201canother step toward peace and a confirmation of the existence of Republika Srpska and the equality of Serb people with other nations in Bosnia- Herzegovina.\u201d Bosnian Foreign Minister Muhamed Sacirbey said the agreement envisaged that elections would be held once basic democratic freedoms are established, refugees are given a chance to return to their homes, and after indicted war criminals are extradited for trial.Prodded by the United States and its European allies, the foreign ministers representing the three former Yugoslav elements hammered out an agreement on a governmental structure for a Bosnian state divided between Serbs and a Muslim- Croatian federation.The agreement calls for an elected presidency, a parliament and a judicial system.U.S.President Bill Clinton called the deal a big step toward \u201cgenuine peace.\u201d Clinton, in a brief White House news conference, said the agreement guarantees that Bosnia-Herzegovina will remain a separate, independent country.\u201cThere is no guarantee of success, but today\u2019s agreement moves us closer to the ultimate goal of a genuine peace,\u201d Clinton said.\u201cWe hope the progress we are making finally reflects the will of the parties to end this terrible war,\u201d he said.Karadzic noted that a political settlement, which might be painful for all three sides in the conflict, could be expected in the near future.These are the first formal peace talks since a U.S.-brokered agreement in Geneva on Sept.8, which proposed keeping Bosnia\u2019s external borders intact while dividing the state internally.Ouellet: Canadian troops likely to stay By Chris Morris UNITED NATIONS (CP) \u2014 It\u2019s likely Canada will continue to be a warden of peace, as the people of the former Yugoslavia attempt to settle their differences and redefine their territory.Foreign Affairs Minister André Ouellet welcomed the news Tuesday that the warring parties in Bosnia have reached agreement on a governmental structure for a Bosnian state divided among Serbs and a Muslim-Croatian federation.Ouellet told a news conference following his annual address to the UN General Assembly that if the parties finally accept peace, it would be prudent to have foreign troops in place to help keep the peace.\u201cWe will certainly support the deployment of some multinational forces there and probably Canada could, in some capacity, be part of that force,\u201d Ouellet said.He stressed while no decision has been made, he believes it very likely Canadian troops will take part in what would be, at long last, a true peacekeeping mission in Bosnia.\u201cThere\u2019s a good probability we will,\u201d Ouellet said.\u201cTo what extent, what will be the magnitude of our presence there, has yet to be determined.It will be done through consultations.\u201cBut it will probably be of a smaller number than we've been accustomed to having in ex-Yugoslavia over the last four Survivors tell of night of terror \u2018I punched and kicked it and By Stephen Ewart BANFF, Alta.(CP) \u2014 Owen Hereford says there\u2019s one big difference between camping in his native Australia and in the Canadian Rockies.\u201cDingos don\u2019t do this kind of stuff,\u201d Hereford said in hospital Tuesday as he raised his bandaged left arm.A grizzly bear and her cub went on a terrifying 3 a.m.rampage Monday through a campground at nearby Lake Louise, ripping open tents and mauling six people.The bears have been trapped and destroyed.Hereford and fellow traveler Andrew Brodie, both of Melbourne, were camping in Banff National Park that night only because a local youth hostel was booked.They were sound asleep when the bear came crashing through their tent and landed on top of them.The bear swatted and bit both of them but backed away, Hereford said, after he kicked it repeatedly.The two lay still in the hope the bear would leave, but moments later it was back again.\u201cIt ripped the tent straight off us so I was looking up at the stars,\u201d said Hereford, 22, who suffered two severe bites on his left leg and others on his arm and abdomen.\u201cIt grabbed my sleeping bag and ripped

do anything.\u201d The bear moved on when Brodie hit it in the nose with a rock, Hereford told a news conference in the chapel at Mineral Springs Hospital.Hereford and fellow attack victim Susan Olin, 38, of Whitefish, Mont., were brought to the conference in wheelchairs.Both had several bandages under their hospital gowns but are listed in stable condition.They are likely to be released this week.Brodie and Algis Povilavi- cius of Germany were in fair condition Tuesday at Foothills Hospital in Calgary.Tanya Aberle-Povilavicius of Germany and Laura Shearin 36, of Minneapolis, Minn., were treated for cuts.Olin, who had stitches protruding from a cut on her cheek and a also suffered a deep bite in her shoulder, said she has only \u201cpatchy memories\u201d of the attack.\u201cI still don\u2019t think of it as terror,\u201d said Olin, who is a ranger at Glacier National Park in Montana during the summer.or five years.That might free up some personnel to accept some other peacekeeping mission somewhere else in the world.\u201d Ouellet said the reconstruction phase in the former Yugoslavia will be very important and Canada will contribute \u201ca substantial amount of money\u2019\u2019 to assist in reconstruction.As well, he said Canada has indicated its willingness to accept refugees from the war- torn region, people \u201cwho might decide they do not want to go back to the village where they used to live and would like to find a new home.\u201d UN officials in Croatia estimated Tuesday at least 250,000 people in the former Yugoslavia have been uprooted in the last two to three months.Many are Serbs who were driven out by Croatian troops retaking Serb-held land in Croatia, or by forces of the Croat-Muslim alliance in Bosnia.In addition, Croatia plans to send back up to 100,000 refu- gess who fled the Serbian advance in Bosnia three years ago.The peace agreement, which President Bill Clinton called \u201c- basic principles for an overall

added.\u201cIt was him or me.One of us was going away,\u201d Olin said, contemplating how close she was to death.The campground has been closed since the attack, which wardens say was unprovoked.Should wardens have taken more precautions after bears were reported in the area?\u201cThere are set policies on handling this sort of thing.I'm sure the wardens are doing what they thought was appropriate.Still, Olin concluded, \u201cI don't think we'll go tent camping again.\u201d How to prevent bear attacks: Here are some bear facts from experts on how to avoid bruins foraging in your neighborhood or ruining your camping or hiking excursion: HOUSEHOLDS: @ Properly dispose of garbage and compost.@ Pick fruit from trees and gardens.@ Keep barbecues and picnic tables clean.@ Wait until late fall to fill birdfeeders.@ Keep pet food indoors.@ Never feed a bear.CAMPING: © Always remain alert.@ Avoid any area that shows signs of bears.® Keep all food tightly contained and sealed.@ Clean cooking utensils thoroughly.® Hike and camp in large groups.@ Make loud noises if you are entering heavily wooded or obscured areas.FACE TO FACE: Experts caution that bears are unpredictable and there is no sure way to avoid attack in a face- to-face encounter.Here are some suggestions: © Playing dead may help end a grizzly attack.@ Back away while watching the bear.@ Do not run, as they can travel up to 50 kilometres per hour.@ Stay calm.Avoid aggressive behavior.@ Try to look as large as possible by holding coats open or bunching together.es PLEASE PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT FOR OUR FUTURE US mme 1 207 En on Editorial ov ££ 6\u2014The RECORD\u2014Wednesday, September 27, 1995 How to divide Bosnia?After 37 years of bloodshed, there is renewed hope in Bosnia today that a lasting peace between warring Serbs and Muslims may finally be at hand.On Tuesday negotiators for the Muslim-controlled Bosnian government and Serb rebel leaders managed to agree on the most fundamental issue surrounding troubled peace talks in the former Yugoslavia thus far: the constitutional shape of a future Bosnian state that would be recognized by neighboring Serbia.There is evidence that the agreement is at least partly the outcome of successful Croatian military offensives during the summer, which considerably reduced the number of rebel strongholds.Nevertheless, the agreement should stand as a testament to the power of diplomacy and as a caution to military commanders on all sides, that the resolution of this conflict belongs at the bargaining table and not on the battlefield.The warring parties agreed to a formula proposed three weeks ago at talks in Geneva, whereby the Bosnian government would cede territory and a measure of political sovereignty to a new Bosnian Serb republic, but retain Bosnian statehood within the country\u2019s internationally recognized borders.Reaching consensus on these basic principles was long and difficult; negotiating the details of constitutional power sharing will prove even more demanding.it seems clear that from now on the basic conditions for diplomacy are going to have to be honored much more scrupulously than they have in the past, for a collapse in negotiations now would surely lead to more intense and heavy fighting.Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic made an important concession on behalf of his government by agreeing not to agitate for the future annexation of Bosnian Serb territory.But like so many players in this conflict, which has left at least 200,000 people dead or missing since hostilities broke out in 1991, Milosevic has not proven he can be trusted at his word.It will be interesting to see if this time he is prepared to earn that trust.Coming rounds of peace talks must tackle the nuts and bolts question of how to divide Bosnia into its proposed components: a Muslim-Croat federation and a Serb republic.Not the least contentious issue will be dealing with the Serb-held region of Eastern Slavonia, which Croatia wants returned to its control.Croatian President Franjo Tudjman has said, unwisely, that his country is prepared to use force to get it back.It therefore behooves negotiators to keep Croatia\u2019s tanks at bay if peace is to hold at this crucial juncture.or PDWANE WILKIN MAY I BE RECUSED?Letter to the Editor i Offer means more work for less money Dear Editor, The spin that the provincial government is giving with regard to its negotiations with unions is misleading.Some union leaders are only too happy to claim victory and repeat the government spin that workers are receiving a generous deal.In fact, a small minority of workers are receiving a golden handshake while the workload for the remaining workers will increase dramatically.The government maintains that if split equally, the $930 million dollars in improvements to salaries and pension plans represents $2,657 for each of the government\u2019s 350,000 employees.This statistic, provided by the Treasury Board President Pauline Marois, is meant to confuse the public and lead them to think that this money is being shared equally by all.The most glaring inequality would occur in the new accessibility to full pension.Retirement on a non-reduced pension would become possible for employees at 55 years of age with 35 years of service.The previous minimum age was 60 with at least 30 years of service or 65 with fewer years.Thus, an employee who is 54 or younger with the appropriate years of experience can look forward to five extra years of pension at 70 per cent of salary.(The pension is based upon years of work times 2 per cent times your average salary ofthe previous five years.) If such an employee has an average salary of $50,000, he will receive $35,000 dollars for five years which he, otherwise, would not have received.This $175,000 dollars for one individual means that the younger workers will see recious little of their presumed | 42,687 - = If this contract is accepted, teachers will receive less take-home pay than they presently receive.This basic inequity has not been publicized by the government, the big unions or the media.Furthermore, these remaining workers will be doing more work than their predecessors.Some 16,000 workers have lost or will lose their employment in the health sector; I can only assume that the remaining number of employees will have more duties to perform.Though the teachers have not yet settled, the government's offer is similar.Considering how our salaries have been cut or frozen since 1982, the 1 per cent salary increase is a bit of a joke.Once again most of the benefit goes to the more experienced teacher.One per cent of $50,000 is a little more than 1 per cent of $29,627 (the starting salary of a teacher fresh out of university, and most of these new teachers do not even have full-time contracts).The pension benefits are the same as those previously described, so any teacher who is around 55 will be desperate to see these negotiations conclude successfully.This is only normal for teaching really is becoming more difficult every year, no matter what the experts outside of schools may be saying.However, in order to have this pension benefit and dubious salary hike, teachers must agree to make an overall commitment to permanent cuts of $100 million per year.In ten years the teachers alone would save the government more than the $930 million which is the total of the supposed raises for all of its employees for the next three years.The $100 million would come from a loss of teacher benefits, an increase in class size or an increase in workload.On the one hand, teachers are being given a 1 per cent salary increase, but on the other hand, their workload will be increased considerably more.Furthermore, more salary cuts combined with higher contributions to the pension plan will surely be requested in the next round of negotiations or even sooner.Marois is only too truthful when she says that the deal will save the government money in the long run.She does not comment on how these cuts will affect health care or education.Marois is not so truthful when she says that she is not trying to buy support for sovereignty in the October 30 referendum.The main beneficiaries of her largess are middle-aged males who are members of large public service unions that endorse secession.This group has always been closely identified with the nationalist cause and they need to be mobilized if the referendum is to pass.Some members of this group still remember 1982 when the Péquiste government of the time rolled back generous pre- referendum raises, crushed strikes by legislating them illegal, and left the public service unions without much real political muscle.The prime villains of the time were then Finance Minister Jacques Parizeau and his chief negotiater, Lucien Bouchard.The golden handshake of 1995 may make it easier for these unionists to forget 1982 and look forward to the future, both short term (the referendum) and long term (their retirement).Sincerely, RONALD EWING President, Eastern Townships Association of Teachers The RECORD\u2014Wednesday, September 27, 1995\u20147 QERSRNRRARA A \\ ARAN!

September 27, 1995 INVESTMENT STRATEGIES By ALAIN GILBERT Adm.A.PLFin.819-822-4460 Today, the global environment is wide open, brimming with exciting investment opportunities previously inaccessible to North Americans.The abundance of emerging global markets is a great incentive for expanding your investment horizons.An important point to keep in mind when considering whether to invest globally is that as much as you diversify your portfolio within the Canadian market, Canada represents only 3% of global market capitalization.This proportion is reduced even more if we limit ourselves to only one Canadian province.Apart from reducing the effect of the vagaries of markets in a single economy by diversifying your portfolio, investing globally offers the investor a number of further advantages.For instance, the investor can potentially increase overall returns by taking advantage of high growth economies.Access to international markets also gives you the opportunity to invest in industries that are not available domestically, such as the successful biotechnology industry.Another advantage is that the global investor avoids relying solely on the domestic economy.World economies do not all work in \u201csync\u201d.When a particular economy is in recession, it is inevitable that some other economies around the world will be simultaneously expanding, providing investment opportunities the prudent investor would not want to forgo.A strong performance in one country may help cushion your portfolio Global investing from a mediocre perfomance in another.The potential to reduce short-term fluctuations is another attractive reason to consider investing globally.If your portfolio is made up of securities from different nations that are not influenced by the same variables, the chances of simultaneous portfolio declines are visibly reduced.Globalization continues at an astonishing speed providing opportunities for unparalleled growth and prosperity, as well as with access to some of the world's most profitable industries.Experience indicates that investing internationally presents tremendous opportunities for portfolio diversificaton, risk reduction and superior returns.With the help of a professional Financial Advisor, you can take part in the wealth of opportunities that are available across the globe.An adequate investment strategy and

Somebody finally answered the call from money-losing Unitel Communications, which has been seeking new owners since January.U.S.communications giant AT and T and two Canadian banks will pump up to $250 million total into the alternative long-distance carrier and will emerge its new owners, Unitel announced Tuesday.Foreign ownership rules will restrict AT and T to a maximum 46.6 per cent voting interest in Unitel, even though it will provide half the cash.The two banks were among a larger group of financial institutions owed almost $700 million by Toronto-based Unitel, which has been losing about $1 million each business day.Former Unitel owners Rogers Communications and Canadian Pacific walk away with nothing from the deal.Until now, CP owned 48 per cent and Rogers 29.5 per cent.AT and T was the third partner, with 22.5 per cent.The deal gives Unitel a healthy cash injection and should allow it to restructure some of its debt, Unitel president Stan Kabala said.\u201cAfter today, there will no longer be any question \u2014 competition is here to stay,\u201d Kabala said at a news conference attended by dozens of employees.Thanks to referendum \u201cWe'll come out of this with a much stronger balance sheet.\u201d As part of the deal, Unitel gets access to AT and T's products, expertise and brand name.Kabala said the Unitel name will remain, but consumers should soon see some products marketed under the AT and T imprint.\u201cWe believe the AT and T brand is very powerful in some segments of the market.\u201d The head of AT and T in Canada, Jim Meenan, said the investment in Unitel is a key piece of strategy for the worldwide company.\u201cA strong presence in Canada is critical to our goal of providing seamless service across North America.\u201d No interest rate relief in sight OTTAWA (CP) \u2014 So you think you're getting off easy because the Quebec referendum has been a dud so far in driving up borrowing costs.Well, think again.It\u2019s true that loan and mortgage rates have stayed still despite some wild gyrations by the dollar in the past two weeks.But many analysts say interest rates should really be lower than they are now to fight an economic slump that has strangled job growth and weighed heavy on consumer spending.Derek Jones, senior economist at the Canadian Imperial Bank Commerce, said interest rates have to stay high to appease foreign investors worried that Quebec could leave Canada.\u201cIf that wasn\u2019t the case, it\u2019s just basic economics that you would be looking at lower rates,\u201d Jones said.There were some signals Tuesday that financial markets might accept an interest rate cut.The dollar closed at 74.31 cents US, down 0.07 of a cent but still well over a cent higher than it was two weeks ago after a sell-off linked to poll rumors and the referendum campaign.The dollar\u2019s strength allowed the Bank of Canada to trim its influential bank rate to 6.71 per cent from 6.91 per cent last week.Rates

\u2014 Canada\u2019s broadcast regulator has been urged to open its phone lines to complaints from the public about violence on television.The suggestion to set up a toll-free complaint line came during Canadian Radio- television and Telecommunications Commission public consultations in Winnipeg Monday.: Simultaneous meetings were held in St.John\u2019s, Nfld., and Vancouver.Audrey Krushel of the Provincial Council of Women said a one-stop complaint number would provide a simple and efficient way for people to air their views.\u201cPeople often want to complain but they get discouraged by the bureaucracy,\u201d said Krushel.\u201cAnd who do you complain to?The CRTC?The station?The advertisers?\u201d Frustration with the complaint process led the Coalition for Responsible Television to set up a 900 line last January.The line (1-900-451-3664) collects complaints from around the country at $3 a call.The volunteer coalition claims to have received more James Dean: A sulking bad boy for all time CHOLAME, Calif.(AP) \u2014 James Dean starred in only three movies, yet his sulking, bad-boy image was forever immortalized the day his sleek silver Porsche collided with another car on a desolate crossroads.Dean fans stop every day in this dusty central California hamlet, population 65, to catch a glimpse of the area where the 24-year-old actor died 40 years ago Saturday.Some gaze at a stainless steel memorial, imagining what the crash must have been like.Others grab a bite to eat at the Jack Ranch Cafe, where you can buy James Dean T-shirts, lighters and magnets and listen to 1950s records on a jukebox.Dean, who had bit parts in four other movies, is still idolized by a cross-section of the United States.Many who were teenagers in the 1950s fondly remember him, but he hasn't been forgotten by many of today\u2019s teens, who identify with the actor\u2019s angst-ridden characters.The fascination hasn\u2019t faded, perhaps because more than any other actor, Dean symbolizes doomed stardom: live fast, die young.His portrayal of troubled teens in Rebel Without a Cause and East of Eden continue to affect viewers.Bob Hinkle, a close friend who taught Dean rope tricks for the movie Giant, said Dean actually was shy, not surly.In fact, the only time he ever saw Dean get angry was shortly before his death, when he yelled at director George Stevens for making him wait hours to shoot a scene for Giant.Producers ordered Dean, an avid racer, not to drive his Porsche while working on the movie.Two weeks after his final scene, he was dead.He was on his way to a race in Salinas that early autumn day in 1955 when a sedan driven by Donald Turnupseed, a college student, turned from one rural road onto another and into the path of Dean\u2019s Porsche Spyder.Police said Dean may have been driving 120 kilometres an hour.\u201cHe\u2019s got to see us!\u201d Dean said to Rolf Wuetherich, his mechanic and passenger, Hinkle said.Those were Dean\u2019s last words.It was 5:56 p.m.WEDNESDAY'S POP CHART Music Here are the Top 10 country songs in Canada for the week beginning Sept.16 based on sales, as compiled by the national music trade source The

Standards Council does in a year.NOT EFFECTIVE Founding member Francois Lambert of Montreal said the coalition doesn\u2019t believe the council, which is a body set up by the industry to regulate itself, is an effective channel for making complaints.The letter-writing process of making complaints is also too cumbersome for most people, he said.\u201cThe more difficult you make it to make a complaint, the fewer complaints you're going w get,\u201d said Lambert.Most complaints are about children\u2019s TV programming.One study concluded that children\u2019s programs contain 68 per cent more violence than adult programs.Another study estimates that children witness 4,000 violent deaths on television before the age of 12.A growing body of research links children\u2019s aggressive behavior to viewing of violent TV programs.Sifting through the mayhem to find a decent show has become so difficult that some parents simply turn the television off.\u201cWe often don\u2019t watch it at all,\u201d said Eric Truijen, a Winnipeg firefighter with four children between the ages of 1 and \u201cIt\u2019s kind of sad because there are good programs out there.\u201d Truijen told commissioners in Winnipeg he welcomes the V-chip, a proposed device that would allow parents to screen out violent programming.The CRTC's regional consultations into TV violence continue Thursday in

her first play, The Prisoner in Iris\u2019s Kitchen, at the New Plays Festival taking place at the Studio Theatre (adjacent to Centennial Theatre) from Friday September 29 to Monday October 2.In all, seven plays will be presented in half-hour or so segments, four on nights A \u2014 Friday and Sunday, and three on nights B \u2014 Saturday and Monday, beginning at 8 p.m.Brenda studied playwriting at Bishop\u2019s University.Her play, to be presented Saturday and Monday evenings, is also the first play she wrote in the course of her studies.Good luck Brenda! can you, somebody bought Squirrel story was a tall tale that fed on gullible journalists LAKE PLACID, N.Y.(AP) \u2014 The story goes that a man lost in the Adirondack mountains survived on squirrels cooked with an eyeglass lens.Upon his rescue, he was prosecuted by an animal rights group.If it sounds unbelievable, that\u2019s because it never happened.The story about a lost auto mechanic named Jake Landon was a satirical piece in a newsletter that pokes fun of political correctness.But the story ended up on an episode of ABC's This Week with David Brinkley and was picked up by other media, prompting a flurry of phone calls to the state\u2019s environmental conservation department and a flood of letters to upstate New York newspapers.The tale also inspired a column by Mike Royko of the Chicago Tribune \u2014 although he figured out that it was a gag.The story first appeared in Heterodoxy, a publication of the Centre for the Study of Popular Culture.\u201cHeterodoxy skewers and ridicules the politically correct,\u201d said John Herr, a spokesman for the centre.\u201cWe have kind of a cheeky attitude.\u201d The story didn\u2019t mention it was a satire and even called it a \u201creal-life adventure.\u201d OBVIOUS But Herr said the tall tale was obvious.\u201cMost readers can figure it out by the fourth paragraph.\u201d The story of Jake Landon (a play on author Jack London) took place in Beaverton County (no such county in New York) and had him charged with Class A felonies (the classification is usually reserved for murder).At one point in the story, Landon even met up with a couple of escaped inmates from the Upstate Correctional Facility (no escaped inmates, no Upstate Correctional Facility).\u201cIt was amazing,\u201d said Mike McKeon, a spokesman with the state Department of Environmental Conservation.McKeon fielded phone calls from reporters inquiring about the story and trying for an interview with Landon.\u201cWe tried to tell people .there is no guy,\u201d he said.\u201cWhat can I tell you, somebody bought it.\u201d Derrick Mellon, a researcher with Paul Harvey's radio show The Rest of the Story, said the broadcaster read the story in his morning report.Mellon and others later checked on the story and it was dropped from the afternoon show.Brinkley read the piece last on a recent show.Eileen Murphy, a spokeswoman for Brinkley, said somebody had sent it to the show in the mail and said that if they had known it was satirical, they wouldn\u2019t have aired it.80th Birthday Open House Family and friends are invited to an Open House to celebrate the 80th birthday of Irene

LONDON (Reuter) \u2014 Butter is bad for you \u2014 but so is margarine.Coffee raises blood pressure, but may protect against cancer.Alcohol is OK, but only if it\u2019s wine.The confusing studies on what it is safe to eat and drink are enough to send anyone screaming to the nearest burger joint in rebellion.But are the studies really contradictory, or does the media oversimplify and over- hype?\u201cIt is obviously a confusing world out there and certainly there is a lot of information that appears to the consumer to be contradictory,\u201d said Ursula Arens, a nutrition scientist with the British Nutrition Foundation.\u201cOver time, consumers will become increasingly cynical.\u201d Nutritionists, too, have contradicted themselves.\u201cAn example of an absolutely dramatic major U-turn on the advice that nutritionists give is on starch,\u201d Arens said.Twenty years ago, slimmers were told to stay away from potatoes, bread or pasta.\u201cOur advice today is the complete opposite,\u201d she said.\u201c- Carbohydrate and particularly starch is absolute wonder stuff and really we should be eating more of it.\u201d The margarine-butter debate has been especially confusing.Studies that linked saturated fat \u2014 found mostly in Sutton Mable Boyce 538-2946 Mr.and Mrs.Kenneth Sherrer, Mrs.Angie Sherrer and Mrs.Lei- tha Rolland were in Waterloo on September 16 to attend the 60th wedding anniversary dinner for Mr.and Mrs.J.Bailey.Mr.and Mrs.Raymond Miller of Smiths Falls, Ont., spent a couple of days with Mrs.Muriel Miller recently.Mr.and Mrs.Ed Glista of N.B.recently spent a few days with Pete and Cora Hazard and while here, they were all supper guests of Bid Lachapelle and Stephen.Wayne and Alex Larocque of Edmonton, Alta., visited Iris Larocque at the Foyer and took her to La Pappilion restaurant for dinner.They also called on Pete and Cora Hazard.Best wishes to Lenora Murray who had the misfortune to suffer a fall resulting in a broken arm.Sympathy is extended to Joan Cane and family in the death of Peter.He will be greatly missed in the community where he was actively involved.May Young of Mansonville called at the Boyce home recently.animal products such as meat and butter \u2014 with cancer and heart disease sent millions rushing to buy margarine.But then another study found that people who ate a lot of margarine also had high levels of heart disease.Researchers blamed the hydrogenizsation process that hardens oils into something more resembling butter.The trans-fatty acids formed in the process acted just like harmful substances in butter, raising blood fat levels and clogging arteries.Back to the butter dish, or so it seemed.But many doctors point out that their advice has never been conflicting.For years, and in various countries, they have recommended cutting overall fat intake.People in Western industrialized countries such as Britain and the United States get about 40 percent of their calories from fat.Doctors say this should be around 30 or even 25 percent.\u201cWe must try to reduce total fat, in particular saturated fat,\u201d said Dr.Rudolf Riemer- sma of the University of Edinburgh, who has been studying the effects of fat intake for years.\u201cWe need to go to starchy foods, more bread, in particular brown bread, and more fruit and vegetables.\u201d This means cutting down on meat, and not just to make room for the extra vegetables and grains.Dr.Alan Boobis of the Royal Postgraduate Medical School in London says various studies have shown a link between eating red meat and bowel cancer.\u201cDuring the cooking process, the action of heat on natural components of the meat results in the formation of a group of compounds known as HAs (heterocyclic amines) which can cause cell mutation,\u201d Boo- bis said.There was also the \u201cmad cow disease\u201d scare in Britain \u2014 when tens of thousands of cattle developed Bovine Spon- giform Encephalopathy, which destroyed their brains.Although there is no firm evidence that people can get it from eating beef products, the human version, Creutzfeld- Jakob disease, has a long incubation period and new rules on butchering cattle were instituted to reduce risk of infection.EAT FISH So if you can\u2019t eat meat, should you eat fish?Fish oil has been linked with reduced risks of disease \u2014 specifically, its content of omega- three fatty acids, which seem to reduce cholesterol build-up.But a survey of 45,000 men found that those who ate five or six servings of fish a week had just as much heart disease as those who ate two or three portions.And environmentalists say fish taken from heavily polluted waters like the North Sea, or the U.S.Great Lakes, could carry enough poisonous heavy metals in their flesh to be dangerous.Fresh produce may not be so safe, either.Last month the British government advised consumers to peel their carrots because of pesticide contamination, while many Americans METRO GROCERS BY PROFESSION WATS WANTED 10 KNOW AB0D AT QUEBECERS Hl, T WERE A T0 briefly boycotted apples because of fears over the chemical Alar.But Arens said any risk of pesticide poisoning would be outweighed by the costs of not eating plant foods.\u201cIn balance, if you were to put both risks against each other, the advice has to be eat as much fruit and veg daily as possible,\u201d she said.What about coffee and tea?Doctors recommend cutting caffeine, but some studies have shown that even heavy coffee drinkers have a reduced risk of cancer of the colon.Only a very few studies linked coffee with heart disease, and most were done in Scandinavia, using limited populations and using boiled coffee \u2014 now rarely drunk in much of the world.In general, nutritionists conclude, variety truly is the spice of life.\u201cThe general advice is pretty much the same advice that nutritionists have been rabbiting on about for donkey\u2019s years \u2014 a varied diet, a mixture of foods and not too much of any one,\u201d Arens said.Soft cheese that is.Actually, from Blue cheese to Goat cheese, Brie to Brick, Quebecers just can\u2019t seem to get enough of cheese.In fact, almost 25% of Quebecers tried a new cheese during the last six months, and 78% of them say how much they really enjoyed it. Education 12\u2014The RECORD\u2014Wednesday, September 27, 1995 Parents pushing superkids to excel By Jeff Holubitsky Edmonton l'ournal EDMONTON \u2014 They're shuttled from class to class years before they're even in kindergarten.If there's a lesson for it, you can be sure these kids are enrolled.They're so busy being driven to lessons, they don\u2019t have time to play.These are superkids \u2014 or, to use other labels, hurried kids, yuppie kids and hothouse children.Some are batted like country-club badminton birds in the highly competitive, overachieving world of their parents to become emblems of success.\u201cKids have become much more symbolic of our financial status,\u201d says psychologist David Elkind.The Tufts University professor in Medford, Mass., and author of The Hurried Child (Addison-Wesley, $16.95) is noted for his views against needlessly pushing preschoolers to perfection.Elkind knows many parents only want to ensure their kids achieve their place in an increasingly competitive world.But parents might be setting their kids up for a fall.Children can have all the same problems as overstressed adults \u2014 they can lose interest or burn out.And there\u2019s no evidence that success as a child will translate to success later on.Keep pushing the average student to bring home honors and he might simply give up on school.Force your daughter to practise for hours on end and constantly skate faster, jump higher, bring home more medals and she may take the blades off forever.\u201cThey may be pushed all through childhood and then in adolescence they'll rebel and give up, whether it's the athletics or the academics,\u201d says Elkind.As a therapist working with kids, he regularly treats the symptoms of overstressed and overprogrammed kids.They pull at their hair, scratch their skin or pick their noses till they bleed.Often these ticks will disappear if the parents cut down on the activities and the pressure.\u201cCertainly one should expect kids to learn certain things, like manners,\u201d he says.\u201cBut they don\u2019t need three or four different activities before they are six.\u201d Elkind wouldn\u2019t put kids Tutorials having explosive By Warren Gerard Toronto Star TORONTO (CP) \u2014 A growing number of parents, worried that the school system is failing them, are supplementing their children\u2019s education at private tutoring services.At Kumon Educational Institute, for example, a Japanese-based math and reading program is used and the number of Toronto pupils has increased to 12,000 from just 2,000 in 1989.The more than 40 private tutoring and learning centres in th: city report explosive growth, and what\u2019s emerging is a two-tiered education system in which supplemental learning programs costing as much as $360 per child a r.onth are only available to those who can afford them.Gabriele Fanelli, whose 14-year-old son, Tony, is entering Grade 9 in Thornhill, UNIVERSITE BISHOP'S UNIVERSITY NOTICE OF CONVOCATION The Business Meeting of Convocation will be held at the University in Lennoxville on Wednesday, 4 October, 1995 immediately followig the meeting of Senate, scheduled for 4:00 p.m.Convocation will be held at the University on Wednesday, 20 October, 1995 for the purpose of conferring Honorary Degrees and degrees in course.Ann Montgomery Registrar north of Toronto, says the school system wasn\u2019t providing what he needed.\u201cl found he was falling behind,\u201d she said.\u201cHe\u2019s doing OK, but I don\u2019t think he was prepared for high school.\u201d Fanelli enrolled Tony at the Oxford Learning Centre where instructors \u201cmake him more aware of how to study and organize himself.\u201d Stephen Lewis, who operates the centre, one of 20 in Ontario, confirms, as do other tutoring services, that there has been a definite increase in the number of children taking remedial and enrichment help.\u201cI call it the new educational reality,\u201d Lewis said.\u201cThe schools have a lot of trouble focusing in on individual needs of students.I think parents are taking control a bit more.\u201d At tutoring services, students receive the one-on-one attention that can make a difference.The Oxford centre, which employs only certified teachers, charges an initial $95 for an academic assessment and $295 a month for the instruction.Laurie Green has two children, Jimmy, 11, and Jesse, 7, who go once a week to the Sylvan Learning Centre at a cost of $360 a month.Both Green\u2019s children are receiving help to improve their reading skills and Green noticed that their self-esteem as well as their reading improved dramatically.into any lessons before they are five or six years old.After that he believes one social activity, like scouting, one extracurricular activity like music and one sport are plenty.\u201cThat\u2019s all kids really need.\u201d So what kind of structuring does a preschooler need?Parents should encourage things that kids want to do.If it\u2019s art, provide pencils and crayons, if it\u2019s piano, let them plunk away.Research shows that kids encouraged to follow their own interests are likely to become successful adults.And kids need time to be kids \u2014 \u201cwhich is not just wasting their time,\u201d Elkind says.\u201cThere are a lot of things they learn just through exploring their world.They need to touch and hold and taste and look.\u201cThat's how they learn.\u201d growth Leslie Grant, who operates the Sylvan centre \u2014 one of 600 in North America, 50 of which are in Canada \u2014 says more parents are seeking supplemental learning for their children.\u201cOne reason is that parents are really trying to have more control over their children\u2019s education,\u201d Grant said.\u201cThere\u2019s a reluctance on the part of teachers to pigeon-hole a child as having difficulty.They like to say let\u2019s give him a chance, whereas I think parents are keen on doing something preventative.\u201d The world\u2019s largest supplemental learning program is Kumon, with 2.2 million students worldwide and 225 centres in Canada.Canadian schools access information highway Students hooked on internet By Marilyn Moysa EDMONTON (CP) \u2014 Natural Resources Minister Anne McLellan stabbed her finger emphatically at a colorful map of Nova Scotia as it flashed up onto the computer screen.\u201cSee, there it is,\u201d the federal minister said, showing the spot to Kim Gillespie, a Grade 5 Edmonton elementary school student.\u201cThat's where I was brought up, right there on a farm next to the ocean.\u201d Kim, McLellan\u2019s guide on the Internet for the afternoon, responded by teaching the Edmonton MP how to use an exciting new information highway site that\u2019s been developed specifically for Canadian schools by the federal departments of natural resources and industry.Called the National Atlas on Schoolnet, the site opens the door to a storehouse of knowledge about Canada\u2019s vast social and physical features to millions of school students and adult Internet users around the world.The $250,000 venture was officially launched in Edmonton on Friday.\u201cLet\u2019s find out if Jasper National Park is named after anyone,\u201d McLellan urged Kim.Seven clicks later, the two were looking at a spectacular color picture of cross-country skiers in Jasper.The accompanying text revealed the park was named after Sir Jasper Hawes, who ran the Northwest Company trading post Jasper House in 1817.Maureen Duguay, vice- principal at Good Shepherd and one of several Canadian teachers consulted about what teachers wanted to see on the site, said one of the most popular features is called the hot

University Press has rewritten the New Testament and Psalms and produced a new version which is intended to purge out of the King James Version anything that smacks of sexism, racism and social insensitivity.The intent is to be politically correct and to terminate minuscule details that offend those concerned with being politically correct.To accommodate the sexists, the Lord\u2019s Prayer which was rendered as \u201cOur Father which art in Heaven, Hallowed be thy name .Thy Kingdom come\u201d is now written as \u201cFather- Mother, hallowed be your name, may your dominion come\u201d.To appease the blacks, all references to the evil of darkness have been cut.To not offend left-handed people, all mentions of the \u201cright hand\u201d of God have been eliminated.And on it goes! There is no question that the 607-year old King James Version is likely to have antiquated references that will offend somebody, especially those who attack its pages as foe and critic.There is also the fact that its outdated language is difficult to comprehend, primarily by our younger generation.To solve this, there are so many fine translations at hand, geared to those who prefer a translation in modern language.Those who now read the Bible as a way of life, a habit deeply ingrained to acquire knowledge for help in this life and for preparation for the life to come, will be outraged by this new translation.They will find the rendition more offensive than the supposed defamations it purports to correct.Ironically, I doubt if more sexists, blacks and left-handed people will be now attracted to the pages of the Bible.I am inclined to believe that the whole scholarship effort has been an exercise in futility, as are so many purely academic pursuits.No one in any other field would take the liberties which Oxford University Press has taken and changed the actual, literal translation from what has been written in the original to what the editors believe should have been written.This is intellectuial dishonesty.However, my goal is not to turn anyone from the Bible but to turn everyone to its content.I close with John Greenleaf Whittier's poem in Miriam.We search the world for truth; we cull The good, the pure, the beautiful, From graven stone and written scroll And all old flower fields of the soul; And, weary seekers of the best, We come back laden from our guest, To find that all the ages said Is in the Book our mothers read.The RECORD\u2014Wednesday, September 27, 1995\u201413 | Death | BAILEY, Elosia Victoria (nee Taber) \u2014 Wife of the late Cedric H.Bailey, passed away September 24, 1995 at La Providence Hospital in Magog, Quebec.She will be greatly missed by her family, grandchildren and friends.Funeral service will be at St.Paul's Church, Mansonville at 2 p.m., Thursday, September 28, 1995 with Reverend Keith Joyce.There will be no visitation.Interment will be at Manson- ville Cemetery following the service.Donations may be sent to the Canadian Cancer Society, Box 131, Cowansville, Quebec, J2K 3H1.Sawyerville Alice Wilson 889-2932 Lavina French and Lillian Laroche, members of the Women\u2019s Institute, and Serena Wintle of Bury W.L., attended the Hatley W.I.75th Anniversary held in Hatley and enjoyed the afternoon.Herbert and Jean Parnell of Ascot Rd., were visitors of David and Deanna Fowler Parnell.Donald and Lillian Laroche are proud to receive the news they are great-grandparents, their third.A great-grandson Spencer, son of Tina and Troy Sykes, grandson of Gayle and Harley Laroche, all of Georgetown, Ont.David and Muriel Fowler of Spencerville, Ont.were Sunday guests of Alton and Bonnie Fowler and David and Deanna Parnell on Genereaux Road.Death | DAVIS, Allie \u2014 At the Brome-Missisquoi-Perkins Hospital in Cowansville on September 25, 1995, in his 67th year.Allic Davis, husband of the late Gladys Smith.Survived by his children, Randy Davis of Knowlton, Roddy Davis (Johanne Dubois) of Waterloo, Leslie Davis of Waterloo, Helen Davis (Daniel Clifford) of Ontario, Peggy Davis of Waterloo, Penny Davis of Cowansville, Lillian Davis (Clation Welder) of Magog, Howard Davis (Irene Buzzell) of Foster, and Becky Davis of Granby; his brothers and sisters, Sandy Davis of Iron Hill, Flendy Stone (Irvin) of Knowlton, Liddy Davis (Joe Charby) of Knowlton and Orian Davis of Knowltons.Also survived by brothers and sisters-in-law, nieces and nephews, other relatives and friends.Funeral service will be held on Thursday, September 28, 1995 at 2 p.m.in the Chapel of the Bessette & Sons Funeral Home Inc., 5034 Foster, Waterloo \u2014 (514) 539-1606.Visitation on day of the funeral from 10 a.m., the Rev.Davidson officiating.Interment at the Knowlton Cemetery.Danville Eleanor Besmargian 839-2193 Marion Sutherland, accompanied by her daughter Catherine and brother-in-law Jim spent a week\u2019s vacation in the Maritime provinces.They visited John and Jean MacKenzie of Malagash, N.B., and also other friends and relatives.OPEN HOUSE - INFORMATON DAY ( Goss Funeral Homes ) at our newly renovated facility in Ayer's Cliff Sunday, October 1, 12:00 to 5:00 p.m.Our staff will be on hand to answer all your questions concerning available services and options, as well as pre-arranging and pre-financing funeral services.Also on hand to provide you with valuable information: S Mr.Paul Bouchard- Wills and estate settlement QN Mr.Ken Eryou- Raymond, Chabot, Martin, Paré, Fiscal and estate planning Mr.Nicolas Lacasse- Magog Caskets Refreshments will be served 900 Clough St., Ayer's Cliff All Welcome!

defense.However, as more experienced players learn, there is an excellent time for conceding a ruff-and-discard: when you have taken all your side-suit tricks.Then the defense\u2019s only chance for extra tricks is in the trump suit, and the ruff-and-discard might weaken declarer\u2019s trump holding.Dr.George Rosenkranz, Mexico's top player, spotted an ideal chance for a ruff-and-discard in this deal from the IMP Pairs at the Summer Nationals in New Orleans.That was some bidding by North.Four no-trump was Roman Key Card Blackwood, South\u2019s reply showing all four aces or three aces and the heart king.I cannot help feeling that South should have bid four clubs over three spades, which might have got them to the laydown six clubs.Playing in six hearts, after winning the first trick with his spade ace, as the cards lie South does best to play a club to the dummy.But he actually ruffed his remaining spade.Then came a heart to the queen and king.Now Rosenkranz made the killing play of his last spade.If declarer ruffed in the dummy, he would have only two trumps left in each hand, unable to combat West's three.But after South ruffed in hand, he could no longer pick up West's heart 10.South cashed the heart ace, getting the bad news.Then he couldn\u2019t do better than play on clubs, finishing one down.Watch out for the yes-yes ruff-and- discard.© 1995 by NEA Inc.BRIDGE PHILLIP

in Boston Garden, a 3-0 exhibition victory Tuesday night over the Montreal Canadiens behind Blaine Lacher\u2019s solid goaltending.Joe Mullen, Ray Bourque and Don Sweeney scored.The Bruins will move into the FleetCentre, adjacent to the current arena, Oct.7 against the New York Islanders.Closing ceremonies for the Garden are scheduled for Friday night, with opening ceremonies for the new building set for Saturday.Lacher, who allowed nine goals in 120 minutes before Tuesday, stopped 23 shots.The first shutout in the history of the nearly 67-year old building took place Nov.20, 1928, when George Hainswor- th of the Canadiens blanked the Bruins 1-0 in the first game played at the Garden.Tuesday\u2019s game was played in two 25-minute halves with halftime and post-game ceremonies.Roy ready for busy] Habs net season 1n By Bill Beacon MONTREAL (CP) \u2014 Patrick Roy is paid to handle pressure and he should have plenty this season.The Montreal Canadiens have let go veteran Ron Tugnutt and opted to use a rookie as backup goaltender to Roy this season.\u201cAt the beginning of my career, | wanted someone there with lots of experience, but now I don\u2019t mind,\u201d Roy said this week.\u201cI don't feel any extra pressure because of that.\u201d Patrick Labrecque, 24, who led the Fredericton Canadiens to the American Hockey League finals last spring, is the leading candidate for the position.Martin Brochu, 22, who spent the last two seasons in Fredericton, is also in the running.Another candidate, José Theodore, was returned to his junior team last week.With either rookie, Roy is expected to start about 60 games in the 82-match National Hockey League schedule.But the 10-year veteran, who earns about $4 million per season, is getting used to lots of work.In his first six NHL campaigns, Roy shared goalten- ding duties, mostly with Brian Hayward, and played a little more than half the team\u2019s games.In the past four seasons, the workload has jumped to about two-thirds of the games.Roy set a club record by - Mullen got his third exhibition goal at 1:04 of the second half with a 15-footer from the right between Patrick Roy\u2019s pads.The Bruins went ahead 2-0 on Bourque\u2019s first goal at 10:14, a slapshot from the right point that beat Roy to the near side.Sweeney's second exhibition goal, on a power play at 15:56, came from the top of the left circle.Both teams evened their records at 3-3.The Bruins had lost their previous two games in Anaheim and San Jose by a combined score of 11-5.Montreal was outscored 17-9 in losing two of its previous three games.Jets 5 Oilers 4 WINNIPEG (CP) \u2014 Dave Manson scored late in the third period to lift the Winnipeg Jets to a 5-4 win over the Edmonton Oilers Tuesday in NHL exhibition action at the

minutes.The NHL record for goaltenders is 75 games held by Edmonton\u2019s Grant Fuhr in 1987-88.In the lockout-shortened .1994-95 season, Roy played in 40 of 48 games and \u201cfound it tough.\u201cBut the games were scheduled closer together last season,\u201d he added.\u201cIt should be easier over an eight-month schedule.\u201cOn the other hand, if I'm getting 40 shots a game, it

makes rare comeback against Marlins MIAMI (AP) \u2014 Only one strike away from a loss, the Montreal Expos put together a ninth-inning comeback for only the second time this season.Wil Cordero doubled home the tying run and scored on Tim Laker\u2019s single as Montreal beat Florida 5-4 Tuesday night.The Expos improved to 2-62 when trailing after eight innings.With the bases empty and two outs in the ninth, Robb Nen (0-7) had two strikes on Yamil Benitez when the rookie hit an 80-foot grounder to third base for a single.On the next pitch, Cordero doubled into the left-field corsier, scoring Beni- tez from first, and Laker then singled to right field.\u201cI didn\u2019t think I'd get a chance when Yamil had two strikes,\u201d Laker said.Marlins manager Rene Lachemann declined to fault Wil Cordero.Doubled in winning run.Nen, but said the quick comeback was hard to take.\u201cThat's what can grind your stomach,\u201d Lachemann said.\u201cTwo outs and two strikes, and then it explodes on you \u2014 bang, bang.It makes you sick.\u201d It was the sixth blown save in 29 chances for Nen, who said he left pitches over the plate to both Cordero and Laker.\u201cThis game should have been closed out,\u201d Nen said.\u201cI have to get the third out.\u201d Tony Tarasco and Sean Berry hit solo homers for the third- place Expos, who moved one game ahead of Florida in the NL East.The loss prevented the Marlins from breaking the team record of 64 victories in a season, set in their inaugural year of 1993.Willie Fraser (2-1) pitched a scoreless eighth and Mel Rojas worked the ninth for his 30th save.Jeff Conine gave the Marlins a 4-2 lead when he led off the sixth with a homer, his 23rd, against Jeff Fassero.Montreal closed the margin to 4-3 in the eighth on consecutive singles by Darrin Fletcher, Berry and Mike Lansing.Tarasco gave Montreal a 1-0 lead with a first-inning homer, his 14th.The Marlins took a 3-1 lead in the third.Pitcher Willie Banks singled, Chuck Carr doubled and Kurt Abbott singled home two runs.Conine singled, and Terry Pendleton followed with a sacrifice fly.Berry hit a two-out homer in the sixth, his 14th, but Conine restored the two-run lead in the bottom of the inning.Florida\u2019s Gary Sheffield, who had missed the past two games with a bruised shoulder, walked in the ninth as a pinch hitter, putting runners at first and second.Rojas then got Jerry Browne to ground into a game-ending double play, the fourth turned by Montreal.\u201cRojas has been making it interesting every time out,\u201d manager Felipe Alou said.American League Orioles S

\u2014 Carlos Perez played cards in the Montreal Expos clubhouse, ignoring the television above his locker showing the O.J.Simpson trial.Perez has legal problems of his own.The rookie pitcher rejoined the Expos on Tuesday, one day after posting bond and being released from an Atlanta jail.He was arrested Saturday on charges of rape and aggravated sodomy against a 20-year-old woman.The Expos declined to say whether he'll pitch again before the season ends Sunday.He was scratched from his scheduled start Wednesday against the Florida Marlins.When Montreal returns home for a series against Cincinnati, Pedro Martinez is to pitch Thursday and Tavo Alvarez is scheduled for Friday.That could change, manager Felipe Alou said.Alou and other Montreal officials defended the decision to allow him to rejoin the team, saying he hasn't been found guilty of anything.\u201cThat's going to be determined by somebody else,\u201d Alou said.\u201cI can say I surely hope he\u2019s innocent.\u201d On the club\u2019s advice, Perez didn\u2019t talk with reporters.He said Monday in Atlanta that he\u2019s not guilty.The 24-year-old Dominican arrived in Miami late Monday after being released on $50,000 bond.He walked into the clubhouse about three hours before Tuesday's game, shook hands with several teammates, changed into his uniform and sat down to play cards.Alou said he and general manager Kevin Malone would meet with Perez.\u201cObviously the player broke curfew and some of the rules we have,\u201d Alou said.He declined to say whether Perez will be fined.The woman said the crime occurred in Perez's hotel room hours after he took the loss in a game Friday night against the Atlanta Braves.\u201cMy concern is that the problem with society now 1s false accusations,\u201d Malone said.\u201cThis is a black eye for Carlos Perez.This could happen to any one of us here and there\u2019d be no truth to it, and we have to live with that, and that\u2019s part of who we are for the rest of our lives.\u201cI think it\u2019s unfortunate, and I'm hoping that we can get it cleared up once and for all.\u201d Catcher Darrin Fletcher said the Montreal players support Perez.\u201cWe stand behind him.He's our teammate,\u201d Fletcher said.\u201cIt takes a monster to be capable of aggravated rape.I don't think he\u2019s capable of something like that.\u201d Follow four simple principles to better fitness level Physical Fitness! To some, this word conjures up scary images of excessive perspiration, sore and aching bodies, complicated exercise machines and simply just too much work! Rest assured ladies and gentlemen, you can throw these images out the window.None of this is necessary to lead a healthier lifestyle.À little bit of time management, some patience and consistency, and before you know it, you will be on the road to a healthier way of life.Here's how! There are many choices of physical activity that you can partake in, and there is an easy way to choose this activity.Choose the activity that you would enjoy doing.Choose the activity that someone else doesn't have to convince you to do.Choose the activity that you may enjoy doing with a friend or a group of friends.The idea is to start now and don't put if off any longer.I recommend the activity that you start with should be cardiovascular in nature.Simply stated, this means an activity that involves us- ; + free ¢ Body Talk By Bob Laderoute ing and exercising thc heart and lungs.Aerobic exercise (using oxygen) is extremely important in the prevention of coronary heart disease.Coronary heart disease is one of the leading causes of death in this country.The heat is a muscle and-it can be conditioned to work more efficiently.In the long run, a fit person's heart will have to work a lot less then someone who is not active in any way.There are four simple principles one should follow to gain the full benefits of a sound cardiovascular program.FL T.T.Finding It Too Tiresome?No, that is not the translation! Frequency, Intensity.Time, Type of exercise.Frequency: Three to five times per week with no more than 48 hours of rest between workouts.Start out three times per week and as your conditioning improves, work your way up to five.If-you haye picked the right activity, then eventually, if time permits, you'll want to partake in this activity five times a week.Intensity: Cardiovascular improvement improves if a person works out between 50 and 90 per cent of their heart rate reserve.WHOA! Too technical, forget it! Hang on, folks, it is really very easy, stay with me.Figure out your maximal heart rate (MHR), which is 220 minus your age (ie.220 - 35 = 185 beats per minute).ral a Lo .a - - fa a - - es ea mm ee eee - oe IAP INT ID HEEB IN IE VE CREAT CIA NIT ENE ITIP aT IRIN PATI ANN Sts INE OI QUEIN REI UCT TQ ISI OVEU INI sapve Take your resting heart rate (RHR) which is done by counting your pulse for thirty seconds and multiplying this number by two.So now we have a 35 year old witha MHR of 185 and a RHR of, let's say, 72.We want to work out between 50 and 90 per cent so now our formula is: {Maximal Hcart Rate (MHR) - Resting Heart Rate (RHR)} x Intensity Factor + Resting Heart Rate (RHR).Let's put in some numbers from the above example: {185 (MHR) - 72 (RHR) x .50 + 72 (RHR) 113 x 50 + 72 57 + 72= 129 {185 (MHR) - 72 (RHR) x 90 = 72 (RHR) 113 x 90 +72 102+72=174 Now this individual knows that they need to work out between 129 and 174 beats per minute.You can take your pulse at either the carotid artery (side of neck in the groove beside the \"adam's apple\"), or at your wrist at the thumb side.This will give you an accurate fix on where exactly you should be working out.Just starting, then you should stay ncarer the 50 per cent intensity range and progress from there.Be able to carry on a conversation while you are training.Time: Duration should be between 20 and 30 minutes in length of the actual training time.You should perform some low key warm-up and cool-down before and after the activity (light activity and flexibility \u2014 a future topic).Type: For aerobic fitness (cardiovascular).the activity should be continuous and rhythmic.Biking, brisk walking, jogging, swimming, acrobics, cross-country skiing, hiking and many others are good acro- bic activities.Next week, l'H talk about flexibility and its importance.In the meantime, contact your buddy and make a pact together to start a [it- ness program.I know, it may take the two of you to figure out your training zones!!!
