on veto By Bob Cox OTTAWA (CP) \u2014 The Liberal government has approved in principle legislation to give Quebec a veto over future constitutional change \u2014 a major part of Prime Minister Jean Chrétien\u2019s unity package.MPs voted 144 to 76 on Monday night for the bill.The government used closure to end debate on it last week after only two days in the Commons.Bloc Québécois and Reform MPs voted against the legislation, which was sent immediately to a Commons committee for more detailed study.The bill would alter the way the federal government uses its veto over constitutional amendments, committing Ottawa to reject any change that does not have approval from Quebec, Ontario, the West and the Atlantic.The measure is meant to fulfil Chrétien\u2019s referendum promise not to change the Constitution without Quebec\u2019s consent.The separatist Bloc Québécois calls the veto meaningless, since it is not part of the Constitution and could be withdrawn Life after Lucien.1

foolish thing that the government could possibly do.\u201d Justice Minister Allan Rock defended the legislation as a temporary solution that allowed the federal government to act now on Quebec\u2019s demand for a constitutional veto.The bill is not the final federal word on what the constitutional amending formula should be, said Rock.\u201cA more durable, perhaps a more complete approach,\u201d to constitutional change may be reached at a first ministers meeting on the amending formula that must be held by April 1997, said Rock.The unity package also includes a resolution recognizing Quebec as distinct and federal withdrawal from manpower training, a long-time Quebec demand. 2\u2014The RECORD\u2014Tuesday, December 5, 1995 Sarajevo still the sticking point First NATO troops begin new

Collenette was like the Cheshire cat in Alice in Wonderland on Monday \u2014 all smiles, but no answers under grilling about what role Canada will play in Bosnia.The government kept details of its participation in a NATO intervention force secret even under intense opposition grilling during a Commons debate on the issue.How many troops will the government send, Reform and Bloc Quebecois MPs wanted to know.For how long?At what cost?To do what, exactly?\u201cThis is a matter of life and death,\u201d Reform\u2019s foreign affairs critic said at a news conference.Reform cannot debate the

equipped, have low morale and shouldn't participate in any operation while an inquiry into the actions of Canadian soldiers in Somalia is still under way, he added.Though the government will reveal its decision Wednesday, Collenette insisted Monday that no decisions regarding Canada\u2019s contribution had been made.He did, however, pin the cost at a wide-ranging $20 million to $70 million

Quebec to talk turkey on QUEBEC (CP) \u2014 The Quebec government said Monday it's ready to negotiate with Ottawa on job-training programs but only if the province\u2019s exclusive jurisdiction in the sector is respected.The National Assembly unanimously adopted a resolution to that effect after talks between the PQ and the Opposition Liberals.The motion asks that \u201cthe Quebec government and the Inside employment minister begin formal talks immediately with the federal government to ensure respect for the consensus in Quebec and in the interests of Quebecers.\u201d It also says, however, that the government, employers and unions must \u201coppose any initiative by the federal government which encroaches on Quebec jurisdiction.\u201d Quebec unions, employers and politicians have long

Balkan leaders sign their deal Dec.14 in Paris, NATO will start sending its peace-enforcing troops.In Ottawa, Defence Minister David Collenette said Monday that Canadian participation in the NATO force could cost $70 million next year.He did not say how many soldiers Canada plans to contribute.Canada\u2019s share of the $10-billion cost of the one-year intervention force would be $20 million, even if no Canadian soldiers participate, he said during Commons debate on peacekeeping.Options the government is considering would add another $20 million to $50 million, he said.\u201cAll of these costs are covered within the existing defence budget.\u201d Ottawa is expected to announce the number of troops it will send to Bosnia after a cabinet meeting Wednesday.NATO and U.S.officials have said they expect 1,200 to 1,500 Canadians to participate in the force.Serb leaders in Sarajevo suburbs said they will hold a referendum to ask their people whether to accept the peace agreement that would return Serb-held suburbs to Bosnian government control.They appealed to the Sarajevo Serb population \u2014 estimated at about 50,000 by aid workers \u2014 to stay in the Serb- held

1996 No new By Rita Legault SHERBROOKE \u2014 Tax bills for residents and businesses in Sherbrooke will be frozen at last year\u2019s levels, Mayor Jean Perrault announced Monday as he released the city\u2019s budget for 1996.\u201cThe city is not increasing its taxes for the second year in a row,\u201d Perrault said, \u201cand the city council has made an even bigger promise not to increase taxes during its four-year mandate.\u201d Perrault added that for the next year, the city will put an emphasis on increasing revenues through various means including handing out more parking fines and speeding tickets.The city also plans to make more money through the sale of services to other municipalities, such as access to its recycling and sorting centre currently under construction and by ensuring that neighboring municipalities pay their fair share.Services range from fire protection to use of the Sherbrooke municipal library.The city announced a plan earlier this week to issue identification cards to Sherbrooke residents for use in various recreational and cultural services, such as arenas and libraries.Sherbrooke is currently taxes, P involved in a battle with neighboring Ascot over significant increases to it\u2019s fire protection bill.The contract, which comes due in January, has been renewed and Quebec\u2019s Municipal Commission will decide on how much Ascot will pay.Sherbrooke also plans to increase costs to other suburbs as their fire-protection service contracts expire over the next five years.Perrault said the city will continue measures to cut the city\u2019s $106-million operation budget in ways that won't affect direct services to residents.He forecast that the city \u2018 will be able to save almost $2 = million in administrative : expenses by freezing the pay- % roll at current levels, cutting down on overtime and increasing measures to make city employees more productive.Council\u2019s ultimate goal is to cut the city\u2019s annual operating budget to about $100 million-a- year by 1999, Perrault said.The freeze announced in Monday\u2019s budget speech means residents will continue to pay $1.56 per $100 evaluation.That means that on an average single family dwelling evaluated at $88,400, municipal taxes will total a little more than $1,600.That incldes taxes for services which are also frozen at errault tells Sherbrooke Sherbrooke : 1995 levels: $112 for water, $107 for sewage, and $65 for garbage removal.Perrault also released the city\u2019s capital expenditure budget for 1996, which was set at a little more than $20 million.Perrault said the city plans to spend now while it can take advantage of funds in the Canada/Quebec infrastruture plan.Perrault said the city will take advantage of the plan to improve its roads, sewers and water mains.It will also cut down on such spending once the program concludes.However, he said, the city has to invest more than $10 of its own money before it qualifies for government help.A sum of $600,000 in the capital expenditure budget has been set aside for the revitalization of old neigborhoods in the city.Also announced in this budget was a plan to reduce the town\u2019s debt by limiting borro- wing to projects that qualify for government grants or those which will generate revenue for the city.The city also presented the budget for Hydro Sherbrooke.The municipal utility, which usually provides the city with about $11 million in profits a year, will generate revenue of about $8.5 in 1996.The decrease in profits is due to investments in modernizing the electricity network over the past year.A helping ail = brooke police.« Monday morning very well for this motorist.Although the car suffered more than the elderly driver in this mishap at the

Pte.Fréderick Mercadier of the Fusiliers de Sherbrooke.Mercadier was one of several Canadian peacekeepers to be taken hostage by Bosnian Serbs during an offensive against U.N.safe zones last spring.The Sherbrooke native had been part of a 10-man observation unit near the village of Illi- gas, 20 kilometres north of Sarajevo.Three weeks into their assignment, word came from U.N.headquarters at Visoko that Serbs were demanding that the sub-unit remain at the observation post until further notice.À similar house arrest was issued to other units along the containment zone between Muslim and Serb lines.Normally, the units manning the observation posts would have rotated, spending a week at one station before moving on to the next, followed by a week in Visoko.Mercadier said the arrested peacekeepers continued to carry out their regular duties at the Illigas post for four days.They had plenty of rations and were free to move as they wished about the 100-square- metre

on a snow-slickened Lennoxville thoroughfare and landed upside down on the front yard of a Belvidere St.home.Caroline Thibault lost control of her car near Park and Belvidere streets at about 5 p.m.as she tried to manoeuvre a left turn onto Park while heading east down the steep hill toward the village centre.Her car slid across the intersection and grazed a tree before overturning in the soft blanket of fresh snow on a private corner lot.Nearby residents say the pitch of the road makes it a particularly dangerous intersection, especially when drivers must contend with poor conditions.Lennoxville police said Thibault and her passenger were unhurt, although visibly shaken as a tow truck removed the vehicle from the yard.2 RECORDPLRRY BEATON \u2018The bankruptcy had to take its course\u2019 \u2014 manager Troubled old-folks home to stay open By Maurice Crossfield SHERBROOKE \u2014 While creditors are still trying to settle details in the bankruptcy of a Knowlton retirement home, a new company has taken over the money-losing operation.\u201cThe facility is still open and people are still moving in,\u201d said Lynn Bellefeuille, manager of the old-folks home, now owned by Mont Echo Capital Inc.The 65-room Résidence le Mont Echo facility was in trouble from the time it opened in last May.Though it offered exquisite cuisine, housekeeping, nursing care and a wide variety of social and cultural activities, the company filed for bankruptcy on November 6.Only nine people had moved into the facility.According to Bellefeuille, Mont Echo Capital has been responsible for management of the retirement home since August.\u201cBut the bankruptcy had to take its course,\u201d she said.Mont Echo Capital hired the services of Toronto-based Senior Living Group to take over management of the facility.Though she had already been working at the retirement home, Bellefeuille said, everything was finalized Sunday and she was officially named manager on Monday.CREDITORS Meanwhile creditors are trying to straighten out the $3.8 million bankruptcy of Le Mont Echo, in which $2 million is owed to various people and companies which have supplied the home with goods and services.The remaining $1.8 million owed comes from the building of the facility, located at 28 Mont Echo Road.Altogether more than 74 individuals and organizations are waiting to recoup their losses as bankruptcy trustees liquidate the assets of Le Mont Echo.In addition to the usual complaint that they may not be repaid, some creditors have expressed concern that there may be a conflict of interest between the bankrupt company and the court-appointed trustee overseeing the bankruptcy.Lawyer Norman C.Lloyd is listed as an official of Le Mont Echo, and works in the firm Miller, Hersh, Rabinovitch, Goldsmith and Rosenthal.That firm shares the same telephone number and location as Miller and Associates, the trustees overseeing the bankruptcy.BUSINESS AS USUAL But for Bellefeuille it will be business as usual as she tries to get the retirement home off the ground.It's become a bit of a specialty and this will be her third rebuild after bankruptcy.She said she wants to help dispell the rumor that the future of the institution is in danger.\u201cWe have had a lot of bad publicity,\u201d she said \u201cBut we're going to try to blow all that away.\u201d Bellefeuille said the residence now employs 10 people and by the end of December two more will be on the job.Two more residents are expected to move in today, bringing the total number of customers up to 11.\u201cBy the end of December we are expecting to have 13 people,\u201d she said.\u201cPeople are moving in because they are confident.\u201d And Bellefeuille says the biggest seasons for new arrivals are yet to come.\u201cOur biggest time is spring and fall.\u201d Behind the news David Sawatzky challenging Grain Board monopoly Rebel grain farmer judgment put on hold WINNIPEG (CP) \u2014 The trial of a farmer charged with illegally exporting grain ended Monday with the judge reserving his decision.Provincial court Judge Arnold Conner promised a ruling before the new year.David Sawatzky is charged with exporting grain without a Canadian Wheat Board permit in a case that challenges the board\u2019s monopoly over exports of wheat and barley.In his final arguments, the self-represented farmer and trucker made an impassioned plea to have the charges dismissed.\u201cWhy am I here?There is no charge,\u201d stated Sawatzky, throwing up his hands.The farmer from Gladstone, Man., argued that the board used an indirect, back-door method by charging him under the Canada Customs Act instead of the Canadian Wheat Board Act.\u201cYou can\u2019t do indirectly what you can\u2019t do directly,\u201d said Sawatzky, 34.\u201cThe wheat board said to Customs \u2018OK boys, you go get him\u2019 It's like sickin\u2019 the dogs after me.\u201d Sawatzky is among a growing number of Prairie farmers who have been defying the federal agency\u2019s export regulations.He has admitted in court to shipping 860 loads of wheat and barley to the United States in 1993 and 1994 without an export permit.But he said that no permit was available for his particular grain because it was infected with a fungus known as fusarium.He also argued that wheat board regulations don\u2019t clearly spell out the need for any kind of export permit, a point that has also been made by the judge.However, Crown lawyer Clyde Bond said the permit requirement can be inferred by linking the Canadian Wheat Board Act, the Canada Customs Act and other export regulations If convicted, Sawatzky could be fined as much as $100,000 and imprisoned for up to six months.OUR ADVERTISERS ne YOUR FRIENDS Le Editorial 6\u2014The RECORD\u2014Tuesday, December 5, 1995 If these guys stick to their hard line Just when you thought it was safe to go back to your mailbox, out come the radicals who have been somewhere back in the woodwork for the last 25 years.Of course I'm talking about what seems to be the latest version of the FLQ, now known as the Mouvement de libération nationale du Québec.Not satisfied with the Parti Québécois stance on sovereignty, the extremists want a tougher line on getting out of Canada.While some are former members of the Front de libération du Québec, for others in the 15 member group this will be a first foray into a radical political movement.Should we start panicking about the possibility of bombs popping up where and when we least expect it?Will there be blood in the streets while the PQ stands by innocently?Probably not.As soon as Le Devoir announced the formation of the group, led by convicted FLQ terrorist Raymond Villeneuve, PQ members did what could arguably be called the most responsible thing they have done since they were elected last year.They distanced themselves from this group of freaks which has already said there might be situations which could \u201cinvoluntarily\u201d turn violent.Indeed the formation of this new group might actually prove to the advantage of Quebec federalists.After all, if these guys stick to their hard line by ostracizing federalists and it doesn\u2019t live up to their radical agenda, they might get into more serious matters.It won\u2019t take much to sway the so- called soft nationalists back into the federalist camp, especially if these guys start promoting violence.And it is those soft nationalists who will decide the fate of Quebec in the next referendum.So in their attempts to take Quebec out of Canada, the radicals might actually succeed in keeping our province right where it belongs, in Canada.Let\u2019s just hope they do so without the loss of life.MAURICE CROSSFIELD Today in

Letters to the Editor All about angels To the Editor: My 12-year-old daughter Julie wrote this poem and quietly gave it to me.It is at times like this when a parent can see clearly the beauty and uniquness of their child and the love and wonder they carry in their hearts.ANGELS Angels soaring through the skys Like the flute\u2019s gentle sound.Doves winging through their golden folds Carrying messages to the ground.Shedding their tears on everyone, But they weep not shinny tears.From their eyes fall petals of rose Sunlight red and crystal clear.Prayers lifting skyward go, Answered, each and every one.Doves bringing answers back to earth Nere forgetting anyone.Flying out to yonder moon To collect the dust of stars And sprinkle over sleeping heads While all about fall moonlight bars.By Julie Laporte, 12 years old, St.Raphael, Ont.At the same time that Julie gave me the above poem, she also gave this one to her grandmother: WHAT ANGELS ARE MADE OF ANGEL TEARS: moonbeams ANGEL KISSES: rose petals ANGEL LAUGHTER: bubbling streams ANGEL WHISPERS: wind through the trees ANGEL SIGHS: willows bending ANGEL HAPPINESS: deer in the forest ANGEL SONGS: mist in the valley ANGEL LOVE: it comes from Grandmothers like mine.JOAN LAPORTE Spooner Pond Rd., Richmond Thanks The Editor, The Canterbury Branch of the Quebec Women\u2019s Institute thanks you and your staff for making space for us over the years.To all of you, Happy and safe Holidays.S.MacAULAY Secretary Canturbury Branch of Quebec Women\u2019s Institute Response was overwhelming To whom it may concern: In January 1995 the students of Morfee Elementary School, Mackenzie, British Columbia, wrote to the newspapers Canada- wide asking them to print an article requesting readers to respond to our students in the form of postcards as they were studying Canada.The response has been overwhelming.Many people replied with pictures, postcards, a lobster trap net, letters of their lives, their descendants\u2019 lives, hardcover books, children made postcards of what they think their area is like, activity guides, maps and newspaper articles.Many of the respondents asked for replies and pen pals and we hope to be able to communicate with you over the next year.To all people who replied in thought and deed, our thanks do not seem enough, but the replies are very appreciated.The information has been retained and will be useful for our studies.Again, thank you.Yours truly, JOHN McLAY Principal Morfee Elementary School Mackenzie, B.C. The RECORD\u2014Tuesday, December 5, 1995\u20147 Arts and Entertainment Quebec theatre wizard plays a one-man Hamlet By Conway Daly MONTREAL (CP) \u2014 For theatre-goers who believe they've seen the definitive Hamlet, Quebec\u2019s Robert Lepage has a new twist.It\u2019s the Shakespeare work as a one-man show.Lepage is the Quebec City- born actor-director whose inventiveness has made him a major draw on stages all over the world.Recently, he made his film- directing debut with Le Confessionnal, a stylish reworking of the 1953 Alfred Hitchcock movie, I Confess.His latest effort takes him over the edge.Lepage plays Hamlet.And Ophelia.And Gertrude, Claudius, Polonius .all the characters, even the gravedigger.The play, titled Elseneur after the original's Elsinore castle, is no quick sketch.With one intermission, it's three hours.It's also a marvel of stage technology, with video images projected on huge screens and sets that change at a button\u2019s push.The only collaborator onstage with Lepage is a body double, an actor used to display an arm or leg but never the whole person.Lepage gets all the best lines and all the rest.The actor flows like water from role to role throughout A look at Lepage An overview of Quebec actor-director Robert Lepage, whose latest work, Elseneur, is a one-man version of Hamlet.EARLY DAYS: Graduates from Quebec City acting school, stu- the play, changing costumes, wigs and personalities in a split second.One moment he\u2019s wondering: \u201cTo be or not to be?\u201d Next he\u2019s Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, agreeing to a mission that will mean their death.Finally he stages a swordfight \u2014 alone.Lepage, who has told interviewers he wanted to put his own mark on the play, refers to Elseneur as variations on the Hamlet theme.ECO A : In Quebec, Lepage performs the work in French.He also has an English version for performances he will give next year in Chicago and Toronto.All in all, its quite a trick.But why do it?The show seems all slight-of- hand and no heart.Elseneur completes a trio of solo shows that Lepage began with Vinci, about painter Leonardo da Vinci.Then came Needles and Opium, which dealt with jazz trumpeter (3 > À SHER Miles Davis and French writer Jean Cocteau.Lepage said in an interview he\u2019s pleased with the public response to the new work.A technology buff, he looks forward to a coming-together of all art forms \u2014 \u201ctheatre, dance, cinema, TV, virtual reality.\u201d Elseneur plays Sherbrooke University's Salle Maurice O'Bready tonight at 8 p.m.Tickets: $27.Tel: (819) 820-1000.OP AL 2 aa AN dies in Paris, then returns to star in comedy, direct puppet shows and found an experimental theatre group called Theatre Hummm CAREER LAUNCH: Joins composer Bernard Bonnier in creating Circulations, a work that tours Canada.Visits to several Chi- natowns result in his 1985 hit, The Dragons\u2019 Trilogy.DIRECTING SUCCESS: In 1992, becomes the first Canadian to direct Shakespeare at the National Theatre in London, England, with his staging of A Midsummer Night's Dream.SHIFT TO MOVIES: Plays role as Pontius Pilate in Denys Arcand\u2019s 1989 film, Jesus de Montreal.Directs Le Confessionnal, which opens the 1995 Quinzaine des realisateurs at Cannes Film Festival and gets showcase treatment at Toronto's Festival of Festivals.TUESDAY'S POP CHART Movies Disney's computer-animated Toy Story was the No.1 box office attraction for a second consecutive weekend with projected earnings of $19 million.The latest James Bond adventure, Golde- neye, finished second with an estimated $9 million, followed by the gangster film Casino with $6.3 million.The top 10 films over the weekend and their take at the box office: 1.Toy Story, $19 million.2.Goldeneye, $9 million.3.Casino, $6.3 million.e METER ROLL GOODS \"SF 4.Money Train, $6.1 million.° T SETS 5.Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls, $5.7 million.PERCALE SHEE 6.The American President, $5.6 million.ec SHAMS : .7.It Takes Two, $2 million.Ne gm se 8.White Man\u2019s Burden, $1.8 million.e BED SKIRTS | 18 al 9.Get Shorty, $1.7 million.oe COMFORTERS i i .6 million.10.Nick of Time, $1.6 million e 100% COTTON W : LANNEL SHEET SETS IIT, Young in Heart meet F < AND MUCH MORE.mums \u2014\u2014 GRANBY \u2014 The regular Mediterranee for dinner at 1 p.m., er?meeting of the Young in Heart after which we will return to the MAGOG \u2014 ;

$15 for a sterilized dog and $25 for a non-sterilized dog.Remember that when the S.P.A.imposed different rates for sterilized and non-sterilized animals, they wanted people to become conscious of the fact that reproduction is of importance, at times causing useless overpopulation, a vast problem of concern in the Eastern Townships.Thanks to the cat or dog identification tag, we can readily trace an animals master.For example, if your dog is found fifteen doors away from home at the neighbours, and they communicate with the S.P.A.indicating the registration number on the identification tag.We can quickly trace you, and you can find your dog without charge.If an S.P.A.officer finds your dog wandering away from home wearing it's tag, the animal will be transported to the shelter.Upon arrival we will communicate with you regarding our \u201cfind\u201d.In this situation, certain costs will be imposed.However, if an animal is found without a tag by an S.P.A.officer, it will be kept for 48 hours at the shelter.An examination will be done, and if unclaimed, it will be put up for adoption until a good home can be found.Later on and unfortunately far too often, is euthanasia.The S.P.A.identification tag can constitute a means of survival and assurance for your best friend.In 1996, the S.P.A.will issue approximately 7,500 identification tags for cats and 10,500 for dogs.It is important to note that dog and cat owners in many of the Eastern Townships Municipalities are responsible to register their animal with the S.P.A.This is not only an obligation, but also a means of security for your companion.The next identification tags, along with appropriate costs, will be dispatched in January 1996.Pierre Boulanger Licence Department E.T S.P.A.slip off lab coats in beefcake calendar and shorts.Valentini, 33, who studies techniques for healing damaged tissue, is Dr.September.Other studmuffins-of-the- month hail from Stanford, Columbia, Cornell, the University of Minnesota and Colorado State University.New York-based journalist Karen Hopkin, who produces National Public Radio\u2019s Science Friday, recruited the men.She admits she was motivated by self-interest.\u201cI guess I had the idea for the calendar so that I myself could meet guys,\u201d the single Honorary President 819-821-1127 THE POINSETTIA FLOWER OF CHRISTMAS * FLOWER OF LIGHT LA MAISON AUBE-LUMIERE \"The purpose of La Maison Aube-Lumière is to establish a resthome in The Eastern Townships for patients afflicted with terminal phase cancer.Buying a poinsettia from La Maison Aube-Lumiére is helping those with cancer to go through their last stage of life with respect and dignity.\" Father Robert Jolicoeur St.Charles Gamier Parish Poinsettia campaign 1995 Reserve yours by calling LA MAISON AUBE-LUMIERE, 926 Ontario Street, Sherbrooke Promenades King, inside Mall 2227 King Street West, Sherbrooke All profits will go to | LAMAISON AUBE-LUMIÈRE ~~) 6-inch Poinsettia only $15.00 5 = 10 On sale until December 22, 1995 at: Everest ESTRIE VOLKSWAGEN de l'Estre \\ > 2 La Maison Aube-Lumière 32-year-old said.\u201cInstead, I have this calendar.\u201d Hopkin sought nominations through a journal of science humor called The Annals of Improbable Research and a computer service called ProfNet, an electronic bulletin board used by university news bureaus.\u201cI didn\u2019t really have a budget to go around the country and check out all the potential studs, much as I would have liked to, so I asked for photos,\u201d Hopkin said.She also sought candidates on the Internet with the line, \u201cIf you have a Y chromosome and a PhD, you could be Dr.December!\u201d After receiving about 200 Golden Age Club meets DANVILLE (EB) \u2014 Again we were favoured with good weather resulting in a fair attendance at our Golden Age meeting on November 21.There were seven tables of cards with a few enjoying just visiting, possibly distracting some players.All Saints\u2019 Guild holds luncheon DUNHAM \u2014 The All Saints Ladies Guild held a Christmas Soup and Dessert Luncheon on November 23.Prizewinners for the card party afterwards: Ladies 1st, Angele Fournier;

He sneezed a great big sneeze! That made him stop wiggling, you may be sure! He sat up in his cozy little squirrel\u2019s nest in the cedars, and said to himself, \u201cWhat's got into me this morning?Something is different! I'm SURE there's something different in the garden!\u201d Now, what Tommy didn\u2019t know yet, was, that there had been a big FROST during the night: and, in the autumn, when there is a big frost, a whole lot of leaves turn yellow \u2014 or orange \u2014 or even bright, bright RED! And THAT was what was so different \u2014 the garden had been all GREEN when he went to sleep, and now.because of the big frost, ncarly all the leaves had changed to gold, or red, and ever so many had fallen on the ground.Now the garden was a totally different color! So.when he put his inquisitive little nose out of his nest this particular autumn morning \u2014 what did he see?\u201cMy goodness! Everything has turned to GOLD!\" he said.\u201cThat's what is so different! Look! The maple leaves are goldy red \u2014 and look there! the beach nut is goldy yellow! \u2014 and \u2014 see there! the poplars are \u2014 well \u2014 they are a goldy-gold! Oh dear \u2014 its all changed! I think I liked it better green!\u201d Then he looked around again.at this new and different garden, which was now reflecting a lovely warm glow in the morning sunlight, and suddenly said \u2014 \u201cIsn\u2019t it beautiful! What a lovely difference! I think I like it better THIS way! Oh! I wonder if the trees in Howard Park have changed too?And my special oak?I wonder if \u2014 if \u2014 OH!

it is just good sense.I especially take exception to Howard's statement that you should trust him enough to know he would have sex with only \u201cdecent\u201d women.Many \"decent\" women have become infected after a single encounter By the same token, some trampy females out there have escaped infection because they usually use condoms and are both experienced and lucky Howard has a few things to learn about life.Dear Ann Landers: My wife of 24 years functions as a magnet for stray dogs.\"Maureen\" can scarcely walk through a neighborhood without some pooch running up to her, wagging its tail, lapping at her , poems, candlelight makes every effort to find the owners but rarely , and we are stuck with yet another animal.The burden is made heavier by our teen-age daughter, who immediately adopts whatever mongrel my wife trails home and makes a house pet of it.Maureen refuses to take sides, so wind up looking like a monster for wanting to take the mutt to the Humane Society or the pound.Taking in strays is not only inconvenient, it's expensive when you add up the cost of food, shots, medication and neutering.The puppies in particular are a problem \u2014 they're not housebroken, and they chew everything in sight.I can't take much more of this and need your help.- DOG-TIRED IN DENTON, TEXAS DEAR DENTON: Tell Maureen you are taking all additional strays to the Humane Society - then do it before bonding sets in.Maureen can find an outlet for her overwhelming compassion for animals by volunteering at a vet's clinic or shelter.She should check with her veterinarian and get going.Gem of the Day: There are advantages to being bald.When company comes, all you have to do is straighten your tie.Legion Branch No.77 holds luncheon SHEFFORD \u2014 On November 9 at 11:30 a.m.the Ladies Auxiliary of Branch #77 held their annual Remembrance Day luncheon.The Legion Hall was decorated in appropriate colours of red and white with a flurry of poppies adoring the walls and about with a touch of gold commemorating 50 years since the war ended.A salad plate was served with Rita McGovern in charge of the dessert table of various types of cakes with tea and coffee.Door prizes were drawn before the closing and the lucky winners were: $10.00 vouchers from Metro Lussier, Katie Marsh and Kay Strange;

League goals than being a couch potato.Campbell was sitting around his parents\u2019 home in Westboro, Me., in early October, uncertain where his next hockey challenge would lie.Signed to a one-year deal by the Montreal Canadiens organization, Campbell was supposed to be loaned to an International Hockey League team rather than be sent back to Jim Camphell.21 goals in 26 games.Fredericton for another tour of duty.When there were no takers in the IHL, Fredericton coach Paulin Bordeleau called the 22-year-old centre to offer him a spot on the team.Campbell accepted and the early returns were astonishing: 10 goals in his first four games.Campbell cooled off considerably after his torrid start, but he still leads the team with 21 goals and 17 assists in 26 games before Monday's action, sitting fifth overall in the scoring race.He tops the league in shots on goal, with 147 before Monday\u2019s game.He's leading fan balloting to be Fredericton\u2019s representative at the AHL all- star game.\u201cJim\u2019s a very good hockey player,\u201d Bordeleau said.\u201cHe\u2019s a good skater; he has a good shot.He\u2019s just got to learn to come to play every night.If he does that, he\u2019s NHL calibre, no doubt about that.\u201d Said Campbell: \u201cThe new obstruction rules have been great for me.\u201cLast year I was getting hooked a lot and I couldn't get my speed up.But now I can just fly around the ice.\u201d So how did Campbell fall out of favor with the organization in the first place?Two words: Streaky scorer.Two years ago, he joined Fredericton after playing for the U.S.Olympic team and had 23 points in 19 games.Last season, he had just 13 goals in his first 44 games but rebounded to finish with respectable totals: 27 goals and 51 points in 77 games.But Campbell was in another slump when the playoffs arrived and he never managed to shake it: two goals in his last nine regular season games and none in 12 postseason appearances.At that point, the Montreal organization was about to give up.\u201cLast summer I went home and trained really hard,\u201d Campbell said.\u201cAfter finishing so slow, I knew I didn\u2019t have any room for error.\u201d MONTREAL (CP) \u2014 Chris Murray scored three goals and set up three more as the Fredericton Canadiens downed the Providence Bruins 8-6 in the AHL on Monday night.Murray\u2019s third goal of the match at 11:01 of the final period broke a 6-6 tie and Pierre Sévigny added a shorthanded goal into an empty net with 55 seconds left to play.guers, Daniel Brière and Denis Gauthier, were invited to the training camp which begins Dec.13 in Campbellton, N.B.Brière, the QMJHL's leading scorer, is only one of four invited players who aren\u2019t old enough to have been drafted by NHL teams.Dan Cleary, the 16-year-old phenom from the Belleville Bulls, was invited and he won't even be eligible for the NHL draft until 1997.Three of the returning players, Chad Allan, Nolan Baumgartner and Wade Redden, are defencemen.So Gauthier will have a hard time cracking the team\u2019s lineup.The other veteran, University of Michigan star forward Jason Botterill, will be playing on his third straight national junior team.Beauport Harfangs defence- man Christian Laflamme, attending his second straight training camp, will have a better shot at surviving the final cuts.The final roster of 22 players will be announced Dec.18.Forward Jonathan Delisle, a Montreal Canadiens draft choice, was the other QMJHL player invited to the camp.In total, eight QMJHL players will attend the six-day camp.There are 15 players from the Western Hockey League, seven from Ontario and two from American colleges.Several top players, including former Sherbrooke Faucon Mathieu Dandenault, won't be on the Canadian roster because their NHL teams were reluctant to give them up.The 13-day world junior championship begins Dec.26.With CP files Christian Dubé.One of eight Quebecers invited to camp.LENNOXVILLE \u2014

who became a team leader, particularly among the club\u2019s francophone players.When the emotional Jacques Demers replaced Pat Burns as coach in 1992, Demers quickly made Roy his favorite, protecting him from criticism and even allowing the goaltender to set his own playing schedules.Under Demers, Roy assumed power that few players ever attain on a team.But it all began to unfold last season as the Canadiens missed the playoffs for the first time in 25 \u201cva a.© 1 À i.ste * Patrick Roy proved his talent by leading the Canadiens to two Stanley Cup titles, but Saturday\u2019s incident was the end of his career in Montreal.NHL forwards, but from the local media, who surrounded his stall at the far end of the Montreal dressing room and asked such things as how he\u2019s coping with the sudden attention.Jablonski, who joined the Canadiens just one month ago in a trade from the St.Louis Blues, moves from his backup status to replace Patrick Roy, suspended and on the trading block after a blowup with management last Saturday night.\u201cI've only been here a short period but this (media attention) is something different for me,\u201d said Jablonski.\u201cI don't necessarily hate it.\u201cIt\u2019s part of the game, part of playing in Montreal.In Toronto, it was unbelievable to me.This is media coverage to an even greater level.I've talked like this,\u201d Roy told a packed years.Becoming more and more outspoken, Roy got into a fistfight with Mathieu Schneider in the dressing room between periods of a blowout loss in Philadelphia after criticizing the defenceman\u2019s play.A newspaper article, quoting an unnamed team source, later said Schneider had become \u201ca cancer\u201d on the team.He was soon traded to the New York Islanders.Roy, 30, lost his special status when Mario Tremblay took over as coach.It was clear that Tremblay felt that if there was an illness, it was that the team had become too dependant and had given too much privilege to one player \u2014 Roy.Few thought Roy was destined for stardom when the Canadiens\u2019 drafted him 51st overall in 1984.In his final year of junior hockey, Roy had a 5.55 goals- against average.However he played on a terrible team in Granby, where on many nights he faced as many as 70 shots.In his first season in Montreal in 1985-86, Roy became the NHL's dominant goaltender and emerged as a character player of the first order.The Roy era ended abruptly Saturday night after an exchange with team president Ronald Corey when the goalie was pulled during an 11-1 loss to Detroit.\u201cThe team always comes before the individual,\u201d said Montreal general manager Rejean Houle.Jablonski with reporters before, just not that many at the same time.\u201d Jablonski\u2019s only starting assignment with the Canadiens was against St.Louis last Wednesday night.He performed well despite a 5-4 loss.It was Jablonski\u2019s first NHL start in 19 months.The No.1 goaltender in Tampa Bay in 1992-93, he got lost in a goal- tending shuffle there and was eventually dealt to Toronto, where he played in the Maple Leafs minor league system last season.\u201cI think I can be the No.1 goaltender here, but that\u2019s a decision that\u2019s taken upstairs,\u201d Jablonski, 28, said of the Canadiens\u2019 job vacancy.\u201cI have a chance to play right now.I'm going to work hard, do the best I can and take it from there.\u201cI'm not going to look too far ahead.\u201d \u201cMy career is taking a new turn.It's not easy and it's too bad how this whole situation turned out.\u201d Roy, suspended with pay and placed on the trading market by the Canadiens on Sunday, promised to stay in shape until Canadiens general manager Rejean Houle can arrange a trade to a new team.In his first extended account of his blowup with coach Mario Tremblay during an 11-1 loss to the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday night, Roy dashed speculation that he might still make up with the Canadiens.\u201cMaybe in the short term it was possible but in the long term, the same situation would have come up again,\u201d he said at the news conference, which was carried live across Canada on Newsworld.\u201cAfter what happened, I don\u2019t see how we could reach any other conclusion.\u201d Roy, 30, said the split resulted solely from his being yanked at 11:57 of the second period after allowing nine goals on 26 shots on Saturday.When he reached the bench, Roy glared at Tremblay, then leaned over and told club president Ronald Corey \u201cthat\u2019s my last game in Montreal.\u201d

repeatedly by the public for what they saw as spoiled brattish behavior when Tremblay lifted him from the game.\u201cI hope my fans will forgive me for the gesture I made,\u201d he said.\u201cI was frustrated and humiliated.\u201cWhat's done is done but I regret it.\u201d He denied that the seeds of his departure were sown the moment Tremblay replaced Jacques Demers as coach on Oct.21.Houle took over for the fired Serge Savard the same day.Roy was close to Demers, who shielded him from criticism and even allowed him to set his own playing schedule.Tremblay has insisted that all players be treated alike.s 3 N v Lennoxville BAR WILDWOOD Belvidere Heights DÉPANNEUR DUFFERIN 300 Dufterin ar a Cheques should be addressed to: THE RECORD or CLFX: THE ANNUAL CHRISTMAS BASKETS CAMPAIGN c/o
