the Justice Department, federal audits show.Security was \u2018\u2018either inadequate or absent in a number of areas,\u2019 one audit of records- management concluded.Another audit on security ser- agree on two Es By Sylvia Strojek CALGARY (CP) \u2014 Proponents of a Triple-E Senate came away with only two of the three cards they were looking for Sunday as delegates to a federal constitutional conference failed to agree on equal representation in a reformed upper house.Most delegates readily accepted the concepts of an elected and effective Senate earlier in the conference.But Sunday\u2019s talks yielded no consensus on the third E.**1 think you've got two Es, unequivocally two Es,\u201d co- chairman Peter Lougheed said at a concluding news conference.\u2018On the other E \u2014 equal \u2014 maybe depending on the negotiations, depending on how it\u2019s handled, depending on events, it might be the third E is equitable and not equal.\u201d That would fit the federal government\u2019s latest proposal, which is for an elected, effective Senate with equitable representation from each region rather than equal representation from each province.Participants Sunday basically divided along two lines.They either talked about how to distribute senators among the provinces, or they wanted seats set aside for specific groups such as women, natives and minorities.Even those who focused on changing provincial representation in the Senate could not agree on how to do it.SEATS WANTED Some delegates from Ontario and Quebec, with their large populations, wanted any changes to retain more Senate seats for them.Delegates from smaller provinces thought they should have more clout in the Senate.\u201cDon\u2019t be afraid of us,\u2019\u2019 pleaded a delegate from Prince Edward Island.\u201cTry to treat us equally on policies and in the Senate.\u201d Said Blair Williams from rural Ontario: \u2018Pure provincial equality is too narrow and defies the logic of the Senate.\u201d See SENATE: page 2.Equal Senate too much to hope for CALGARY (CP) \u2014 A funny thing happens when you ask people what they think.They sometimes tell you.Backers of a Triple-E Senate learned on the weekend, much to their chagrin, that so-called \u201cordinary Canadians\u2019 may not be as supportive of provincial equality in the upper house as they had hoped.In a move that may have effectively killed the third and most contentious of the three Es, participants at a constitutional conference gave the cold shoulder Sunday to the idea that all provinces should have the same number of senators.The delegates had agreed a day earlier on the other two Es, calling for the Senate to be elected and effective \u2014 although they couldn't agree on details.The federal government's most recent Senate proposal called for an clected.somewhat effective upper house with \u2018\u2018equitable\u2019\u2019 representation.Some delegates, particularly from Triple-E's Alberta birthplace, still held out hope that an equal Senate will some day fly.IDEAS TEMPERED Bert Brown, the Calgary- area farmer who had once defiantly plowed EEE Or Else! in his field, acknowledged that a regionally equitable Senate may be the best to hope for at this time.Calgary oilman Jim Gray.another Triple-E backer, said digging in over \u2018\u2019equal\u2019\u2019 wasn\u2019t worth breaking up the country over.The Senate currently consists of 104 members appointed by the prime minister.Ontario and Quebec have 24 members each while other provinces have between six and 10.Proponents of Triple-E say it would give the regions outside Central Canada more political clout.Alberta and Newfoundland have said a Triple-E Senate is necessary in any constitutional deal, while Ontario and Quebec are opposed to the concept.CP News Analysis By Larry Johnsrude Peter Meekison, constitutional adviser to the Alberta government, refused to interpret the conference as a defeat for Triple-E.\u2018I don\u2019t think either side won.I think there was clear support for both.\u2019\u2019 he said.The special-interest group representatives and \u2018\u2018ordinary Canadians\u2019 at the conference provided a new dynamic of compromise and common sense to the debate.\u201cIt would be fundamentally unfair to 10 million people in Ontario to have the same number of representatives as Prince Edward Island,\u201d which has 130,000 residents, argued Krista Slade, a randomly selected delegate from Toronto.Even the West wasn't united.The farther participants came, the less will they showed for equal representation.The three-day constitutional conference, the second of five costing a total of $8.9 million, posed an overwhelming task for the 240 participants.Along with Senate reform.they had to discuss possible reforms to the House of Commons, the Senate and the Bank of Canada.They also spent time wrestling with whether Quebec should have veto power in any new constitutional deal.vices found \u2018\u2018an absence of a comprehensive departmental security policy.\" The 1989 reports.obtained under the Access to Information Act, indicate government employees

the newly-independent country.\u2018\u201c\u201cWe have a great deal in common,\u201d McDougall said after a 90-minute meeting with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Anatoly Zlenko.\u2018\u2018We share a view of democracy and of free markets.\u201cI'm very hopeful that the bilateral relations between Ukraine and Canada will continue to expand both politically and economically.\u201d McDougall was scheduled to Astronaut By Calvin Woodward WASHINGTON (CP) \u2014 It came up heads, but the flip before Sunday's Super Bow] was not merely of a coin, but of Canadian astronaut Roberta Bondar.The traditional coin toss that decides who kicks and receives to start the football classic was preceded by a pre-game toss in space as Discovery's astronauts handed Bondar a coin and sent her slowly spinning in weightlessness.The brief break from routine in the space shuttle\u2019s science laboratory came as NASA pondered extending the mission another day.The crew dimmed lights and used

bearing the names of those killed Jan.30, 1972, followed 14 youngsters as the procession snaked peacefully through the Roman Catholic Creggan and Bogside areas to a rally outside the city's Guildhall.Twenty years ago.the marchers.demanding civil rights for Catholics.were trying to get to the Guildhall when they were stopped and fired on by paratroopers.The soldiers claimed they were shot at during the illegal march.An official inquiry ruled later that none of the 13 people shot was armed.On Sunday.police mounted a strong security cordon around the city and used dogs to check Guildhall Square for bombs before the crowds arrived.The only army presence was a military helicopter overhead.Ukraine kilograms of medicine and medical supplies \u2014 intended primarily for children and the elderly \u2014 directly to Ukraine.Omelchynko said that's crucial because often in the past promised western medical aid never reached its intended tar- gots.There have been frequent reports of shipments being redirected by the former Soviet central government, which used to handle all aid, or being siphoned off into the black market.McDougall is scheduled to fly to Moscow later today where she is expected to address the next round of Mideast peace talks later in the week.Bondar flips for Super Bowl \u201cIt's all the rage here,\u201d Ken Money.the Canadian communicating with the crew, said of the idea for another day's science.\u2018We'd be more than happy to stay up.\u2019 mission commander Ron Grabe replied.But he asked that the crew not be pushed too hard on the final day.The crew's images were beamed down live to the pre-game Super Bowl show on CBS TV shortly before the Washington Redskins and Buffalo Bills began play.Grabe told an estimated international TV audience of 750 million that Bondar \u2018\u2018knows a little more about Canadian football than American football but nonetheless she's interested.\u2019 TWICE AROUND Then she clutched a coin and performed two backward flips before being brought to a stop more or less straight up.\u2018Looks like heads,\u201d a CBS commentator said.The real coin toss later in mundane gravity also came up heads.Bondar.working 12-hour shifts, also tore herself away from her tasks earlier when the flight crew told her that Sault Ste.Marie, Ont.was coming into sight.She darted.to the extent weightlessness allows darting, to a small window at the rear of the lab and took a fleeting look - for her home town 300 kilometres down before going back to work.NASA said the crew had been frugal enough with energy and water to make possible an eight-day mission.Landing would still be at Edwards Air Force Base in California.but the vast dry lake- bed preferred for the gliding touchdown was ruled out because of recent rain.NASA said a concrete runway there, or at Cape Canaveral Fla., as an alternative, can safely be used.\u201cThe crew's excited about being able to continue,\u2019\u2019 NASA mission scientist Bob Snyder said from the science control centre at Huntsville, Ala., in a briefing broadcast on NASA's TV channel.TAKES TOLL But researcher Donald Brooks of the University of British Columbia suggested weariness might have been responsible for.the possible loss of data in his fluid-separation experiment aboard Discovery.Brooks said shuttle pilot Stephen Oswald, helping

backgrounder on the subject and a speech Manning delivered recently in Montreal give the clearest picture of Reform policy on language.That said.the policy remains muddied.leading Prime Minister Brian Mulroney to say Friday that Manning tailors his remarks to his audiences.The one point on which Manning is crystal clear is that language and culture should be provincial responsibilities.Manning said in Montreal last week that he was against institutionalized bilingualism \u201ccharacterized by federal lan- CP News Analysis By Wurren Caragata guage legislation\u201d and the \u2018creation of

and culture would shrink back to its Quebec base and English would be the language of choice in the rest of the country.with the possible exception of New Brunswick.Manning criticizes the current crop of federal politicians for making language policy a divisive force.But an examination of Reform policy leads to a suspicion that Manning should net cast the first stone.He says if his program were followed, federal institutions would continue to work in English and French, and government services would be offered in both languages where numbers warranted.In regions such as Ottawa, the federal government would continue to operate in both lan- Bilingual OTTAWA (CP) \u2014 Here are some facts and figures on the federal government's bilingualism policy.Based on the 1969 Official Languages

teenager Michael Kelly still has the chocolate bar he took on the \u2018Bloody Sunday\u2019 march that ended with his death 20 years ago.The widow of Paddy Doherty keeps the clothes worn by her husband.shot dead by British troops at that civil rights march that changed the face of Northern Ireland on Jan.30.1972.The relatives of 13 dead demonstrators still have grief and anger.Every year the wounds of memory are reopened with a commemoration march.The 20th anniversary has added poignancy as they reflect on a conflict that has now cost almost 3,000 lives.About 30,000 more people have been maimed in the sectarian violence sparked by the IRA\u2019s battle to oust Britain from Northern Ireland and achieve its goal of unity for the divided island.Northern Ireland\u2019s one million Protestants feel fiercely that they are part of Britain.About 500,000 Catholics aspire to unity with the Irish Republic to the south.That is the insoluble equation history has left for today\u2019s politicians to solve.PROTEST MARCH Milestones are marked by tombstones in one of the world's longest-running conflicts which all began with Catholics marching for better jobs, housing and education.In Londonderry, they took to the streets on that Sunday 20 years ago to protest against the British government's decision to bring in internment without trial, a move that proved to be the Irish Republican Army\u2019s greatest '\u2018recruiting sergeant.\u201d British paratroops shot dead 13 protesters on the illegal march, provoking a storm of international protest, an end to the Protestant-dominated Northern Ireland parliament and the burning of the British Embassy in Dublin.Two decades later, the province is still ruled directly from London and is no nearer the elusive goal of peace.The grief of those left behind is still almost palpable as Irish journalist Eamon McCann found out when friends and relatives spoke openly about their grief for a new book, Bloody Sunday in Derry: What really happened?*I knew nothing for four or five years after that,\u201d confessed Kathleen Kelly, mother of 17-year-old Mihael who died on the march.\u2018\u2018\u2019The daughters told me things but I never knew anything.I never even washed myself.I let myself go.The girls had to wash me and I used to wet myself.I used to fight away with God.I used to call him everything.\u201cI have kept all of Michael's clothes that he was wearing that day, even the fag (cigarette) he had in his pocket and his Mars (chocolate) bar.\u201cI told the priest I will take my hatred to six foot under and I will.When a soldier or policeman is killed, I'll say \u2018God love them.\u2019 Butifit's a paratrooper.I'll say \u2018One up, one to us.\u2019 HUSBAND DIED Eileen Doherty was on the march with her 31-year-old husband Paddy who was killed instantly when shooting broke out.\u201cI still have the clothes he was wearing that day.a black and white tweed coat with fur on the collar, beige trousers and a tan shirt and boots,\u201d she says.**Even now I hope that somebody will come out and say they were innocent.Maybe one of the paratroopers will come out and say it and clear their names, admit they were innocent people who were shot and killed that day.\u201d The inquiry afterwards by then British Chief Justice Lord Widgery found that the soldiers had been fired on first and he said there was no reason to suppose that they would have opened fire otherwise.But none of the dead or wounded was proven to have been shot while handling a firearm or a bomb.There is no mistaking the rage and bitterness of Margaret Bradley whose brother Jim Wray was among the dead.\u2018To me it was not another human being that killed my brother, it was some sort of wild animal.\u201d Catholics and Protestants continue feud in jail By Shawn Pogatchnik BELFAST.Northern Ireland (AP) \u2014 John.accused of killing a Roman Catholic.looked across the visiting room of the Crumlin Road jail and hate took him by the hand.The Protestant \u201cloyalist\u201d lunged at an IRA man held in the same jail, pushed the man\u2019s mother aside.wrestled him to the wall and got in a kidney punch.Profanity and fists flew as prisoners and visitors joined the sectarian fray.BONDAR: Someone threw a table.Someone else screamed from a cigarette burn and slashed back with a key chain.Guards wearing body armor rushed in.deflecting bare fists with riot shields and subduing combatants with strangleholds.\u201cIt's madness: it\u2019s pathetic,\u2019 said a prisoner\u2019s mother.who asked to be identified only as Anne.\u2018\u2018They\u2019ve got to be separated for good.It's only going to get worse.\u2019 Catholics and Protestants have feuded for two years in the jail known as \u2018\u2018the Crum,\u201d which was built in the last century and houses 480 prisoners.Among the 200 awaiting trial on terrorist charges, the \u2018\u2018republicans\u2019 fighting British rule outnumber \u2018loyalists\u2019\u2019 about 2-to- 1.In the black humor of Northern Ireland, the other prisoners are \u2018\u2018ordinary decent criminals\u2019* despised by the paramilitaries.MANY WOUNDED Eighty guards and an unknown number of prisoners were wounded in fights last year.A chapel and dining hall were set afire during riots in September and a senior guard was nearly blinded with scalding water.In December, one guard suffered a broken jaw and another a shattered collar bone.A third escaped injury when loyalist gunmen fired at his car near the jail.On Nov.24, a bomb planted by the Irish Republican Army killed two loyalist prisoners and wounded seven.Authorities said visitors smuggled in the parts for the bomb in condoms concealed in their bodies.After the bombing.the most vicious brawlers \u2014 most of them loyalists seeking vengeance \u2014 were isolated in punishment cells.Prison authorities have kept a lid on renewed attacks by filling visiting areas with guards and providing escorts for ptominent republican inmates.HAD AGREEMENT A British security source said relations between the two inmate factions grew worse last August, when loyalist gunmen ambushed a minibus transporting family and friends of republican prisoners.The source identified one of the wounded as the mother of a leader of the IRA group in Crumlin Road.\u2018\u2019There has been a longstanding agreement by both sides that their families are off- limits,\u201d the source said, on condition of anonymity.Contnued trom page one because duplicate film was apparently taken.Two views of the experiment had been planned to permit comparison of the images back on Earth.Scientists said they were excited Sunday by the success of a crystal-growing experiment that could eventually lead

opportunity for some really significant science expansion.especially with regard to growing crystals.It wouldn't be a very busy day but it would be enormously valuable.\u2019 he said.CHANGED PLAN The

Fredericton\u2019s help Courier wins Open, should become No.1 By Bill Beacon MONTREAL (CP) \u2014 The in- jury-plagued Montreal Canadiens showed their depth in a 3-1 NHL victory over the Hartford Whalers on Sunday afternoon.Missing nine players, including seven regular forwards, the team that stepped out on the ice looked as much like the Fredericton Canadiens of the American Hockey League as the NHL club.\u201cThat's our system,\" said veteran Mike McPhee, who had a goal and an assist.\u201cThey're taught to play defensive hockey just like we are.\u201cEvery one of the kids has done great in our system.Plus, they're talented guys.\u201d Up from Fredericton were Gilbert Dionne, Paul DiPietro, Ed Ronan, Jesse Belanger and Patrice Brisebois.as the Canadiens ran their first-place record in the Adams Division to 31-16-4.Regulars McPhee, Mathieu Schneider and Brent Gilchrist scored for the Canadiens while Marc Bergevin got a late shor- Mike McPhee: *.taught to play defensive hockey.\u2019 thanded goal for the fourth- place Whalers, who are winless in their last six games.Hartford, 15-23-7.had played the Boston Bruins to a 4-4 draw on Saturday.The Canadiens lost centres Brian Skrudland to a broken nose and Stephan Lebeau to a charleyhorse in a 4-3 home loss to the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday.But with a 3-1 win last Thursday in Boston, the Canadiens came out of a three-game stretch against Adams Division opponents with a 2-1-0 record.GOT EFFORT \u2018Even against Buffalo, the effort was there,\u2019\u2019 said McPhee.\u2018Pat LaFontaine had a great game (three goals and an assist) and they won, but we have to be pleased with two out of three with the injuries we have.\u201d \u2018\u201cIt started in Boston where we told ourselves: \u2018We're not going to use the injuries as an excuse,\u2019 added Gilchrist.\u2018\u201cWe\u2019re in the race for first overall and every guy, whether he came from Fredericton or not, knows it.\u2019 DiPietro, 21, arrived Sunday on his fourth call-up this season.Between Montreal and Fredericton, the Sault Ste.Marie, Ont., native has played nine games in the last 11 days.Coach Pat Burns mainly used three lines and seven de- fencemen, but the star of the show was goaltender Patrick Roy as Montreal outshot the Whalers 35-32 before 16,538 spectators.Hartford goaltender Kay Whitmore was outstanding in blocking the first 25 shots he faced, but then was beaten on a weak wrist shot from the right side by McPhee at 16:02 of the second period.Three minutes later, the Canadiens struck again when McPhee blocked a point shot and Kirk Muller sent Schneider.who was leaving the penalty box, in alone to beat Whit- more with a low blast to the glove side.Denis Savard intercepted a clearing pass at the Hartford blueline and fed Gilchrist for a one-timer just inside the post at 9:35 of the third frame.Bergevin, on a two-on-one with teammate Brad Shaw in the penalty box, chopped his own rebound over Roy at 15:54.The Whalers return home to face Minnesota on Tuesday.Montreal plays host to New Jersey on Wednesday.Notes \u2014 Montreal recalled centre Paul DiPietro and de- fenceman Patrice Brisebois from AHL Fredericton.Injured Canadiens are: Roland Me- lanson, Russ Courtnall, Mike Keane, Stephan Lebeau, John LeClair, Guy Carbonneau, Benoit Brunet, Mario Roberge and Brian Skrudland.Sabres 5 Jets 2 BUFFALO, N.Y.(AP) \u2014 Pat LaFontaine scored two goals.including an empty-netter with seven seconds remaining, to lead the Buffalo Sabres to a 5-2 Sunday victory over the Winnipeg Jets.The Sabres were hanging onto a 3-2 advantage in the third period when Dale Hawerchuk took a pass from defenceman Grant Ledyard and rifled the puck past Jets goalie Bob Es- sensa with 5:06 remaining.La- Fontaine added the final goal after the Jets pulled Essensa from the net.Dave Andreychuk's power- play score, his 24th goal of the season, gave the Sabres a 2-U lead at 5:42 of the second period.The Sabres enjoyed a man advantage over the Jets for nearly five-minutes at the start of that period.Winnipeg made it 2-1 on à power play at the 7:47 mark when Doug Evans tipped a rebound of a shot from the point by Randy Carlyle past Sabres goalie Daren Puppa while the Jets were on a power play.Buffalo took a 3-1 lead at 12:30 of the second when winger Randy Wood knocked in a rebound of his own shot.The goal was the 100th of Wood's NHL career.Capitals 6 Penguins 4 LANDOVER.Md.(AP) \u2014 John Druce\u2019s goal with 12:36 left in the third broke a tie and Dino Ciccarelli had two goals and an assist as the Washington Capitals beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 6-4 Sunday.Randy Burridge had a goal and two assists for the Capitals, 4-1 against Pittsburgh this season.With only two games left against the Penguins, Washington already has clinched its first series against Pittsburgh since the 1985-86 season.With the score 4-4, Druce latched onto the puck in the right circle after a faceoff and sent a shot that whistled past the right shoulder of Pittsburgh goalie Tom Barrasso.Kelly Miller added the clincher on a breakaway score with 59 seconds to go.Washington goalie Don Beaupre had 36 saves for the Capitals, who have outscored Pittsburgh 29-14 this season.Young defenceman might be hockey\u2019s best COALDALE, Alta.(CP) \u2014 When Ben Thomson steps on the ice.he's a threat to every goaltender.The nine-year-old defence- man has a scoring touch that his idol, Mark Messier.or Wayne Gretzky might envy.In 32 games this season, Ben scored 160 goals and amassed 230 points.Most of his playing time was with the Coaldale Novices, although he has been called up by a local squad of 10- and 11-year-olds.\u201cI score every game.says Ben who has been playing organized hockey since he was five.*\u2018I like to carry the puck down the ice.Most kids can't skate down the ice with me.but Browning By Neil Stevens TORONTO (CP) \u2014 Kurt Browning says he's got one big worry, and it has nothing to do with his back.A slipped disc in his lower back kept him away from the practice rink at Edmonton's Royal Glenora Club for six weeks.He resumed training Dec.27 but withdrew from the Jan.15-19 Canadian figure skating championships so as not to chance reinjuring the back before the Olympic Games.Playing on the three-time world champion\u2019s mind.with the Olympics to open Feb.8 in Albertville.France.is the fact he hasn't skated in front of judges since last autumn.\u201cI'm almost at full speed now,\u2019 Browning said in an interview Saturday following a news conference to introduce Sport shorts LAKE PLACID, N.Y.(CP) \u2014 Philippe LaRoche of Lac Beau- port had a case of deja vu in winning a World Cup freestyle skiing competition Saturday.Cold weather left the landing area hard and several jumpers were nervous, but LaRoche reflected on winning the 1991 title here to defend his crown.\u201cEverybody was nervous,\u2019 said LaRoche.\u2018They didn't really feel comfortable with Abe hill hast [ knew I had jumped I wish they could.\u201d His feats have the tiny community of Coaldale buzzing and opponents in other southern Alberta towns talking.In fact, they are talking so much that some of their parents have turned on the young wizard in frustration.\u2018\u2019The kids really don't say anything to me, it's the parents,'\u2019 says Ben, who credits much of his success to summer hockey schools the last five years.\u2018When I score lots, they say bitter things to me and I guess they're jealous.But it doesn't bother me \u2014 that's life.\u201d Ben isn\u2019t the first minor league hockey player to deal with angry adults.As a child, Gretzky was the target of jeers and abuse when his talents left others far behind.SHRUGS IT OFF While Ben shrugs off the heckling, his father, Fred Thomson, finds it hard to separate his feelings as a father and a coach while behind the bench for the Coaldale Novices.The Thomson says when his son is a target for opposition players and parents, Ben ignores the jibes and sticks to his game.\u201cIt\u2019s hard for a young mind to handle that pressure and politics, but he does things with a lot of class and I'm proud of him,\u201d says Thomson.Although Ben has potential.Thomson says he won't push the boy into higher levels of hockey.\u2018It teaches you a lot of life skills, but I'm net raising a hockey player.I'm raising a young boy.\" he says.\u201cBut if he has the heart, talent and desire, it would be a great life to play a professional sport.\u201d Ben does see himself one day skating alongside Messier and winning the Stanley Cup.\u201cI would like to play in the NHL, and then I want to be the greatest player.\u201d he says.I hope I can do it.\u201d not worried about injured back members of the Olympic tigure skating team.\u2018\u2018There haven't been any setbacks and there's no pain or even any stiffness after I'm done a session.\u2018The only thing I'm worried about, which I realized as I watched the Canadian championships on TV, is that I need to get more competitive- oriented.It\u2019s not enough to know that I'm skating well.I didn\u2019t have the divisionals or the Canadians to get psyched up.Basically, I've got to go into the Olympics ready to compete, and that's what I'm worried about right now.\u201d The disc slipped last November, a week before Browning flew to Albertville for a pre- Olympic meet.He managed to win his 10th consecutive competition despite skating in pain.\u201cI was going into a triple well here a year ago.\u201d LaRoche finished with a score of 224.40, well ahead of the second-place score of 213.79 for American Kris Feddersen.Trace Worthington of the U.S.rallied from 13th place to finish third with 202.91 points.Francois Jean of Magog was 10th and Nicolas Fontaine of Magog, 11th.Darcy Downs of Manotick, Ont., finished 14 while David Belhumeur of Axel one day and 1 jumped and it felt like, you know how a muffler falls off a car?Well that's what it felt like,\u201d he said of the sensation of feeling the disc slip out of place.\u2018NICE BREAK\u2019 The six weeks off was \u2018\u2018a nice break.\u201d \u2018It also relieved the pressure of having to talk to reporters and skate for the Olympics all the time, in my mind.So, I've tried really hard to make it a positive thing.The worst point is that I'm six weeks behind and I have to rush to get my triple-triple (jump combinations) back into the programs.On the other hand, my brain is really into it and I don\u2019t feel bogged down by Olympic pressure.\u201d There is no guarantee the disc problem won't happen again.the silver medal in the men's combined.Bernard Sevigny of Charles- bourg was 19th and veteran Andre Ouimet of Laval finished 21st.Kennedy Ryan of Toronto wound up ninth while Anne- Marie Brassard of Grande-lle was 12th and Katherina Ku- benk of St.Jacob's, Ont., 14th.WINNIPEG (CP) \u2014 The Win- Montreal was Lith and clinched.aipeg Jets have signed Soviet \u2018\u2018\u2019The disc is more susceptible to slip out now because it's smaller and it\u2019s done it once.I have to retrain my stomach muscles, change the way I land my jumps.\u201cI have to make sure I warm up properly before going out onto the ice, or see that I dont sitin a car for two hours then do something quickly.\u201cI should be OK.\u2018It didn't herniate and there's no scar tissue.That's the only reason I'm back on the ice.Otherwise, I don\u2019t think I would have been going (to the Olympics).\" Browning flies to France on Feb.4.The men\u2019s singles original program

last few weeks and played Jan.\u2014 against the Edmonton Oilers.Record MELBOURNE (AP) \u2014 Jim Courier, swinging a racket like a baseball slugger and sporting a cap to match, is on the verge of making tennis history as the first American man ranked No.1 since John McEnroe.Only nine men have ascended to the top in the 20 years of ATP rankings, dominated for most of that period by Jimmy Connors, Bjorn Borg, McEnroe, [van Lend] and Stefan Ed- berg.Courier is a different breed of player from all of them, with strokes that would look more natural on a baseball diamond than a tennis court.But through sheer hard work and indomitable spirit.he is about to take his place among the great players of the game.Courier\u2019s 6-3, 3-6, 6-4, 6-2 victory over Stefan Edberg in the Australian Open final Sunday put the red-haired, 21-year-old from Dade City, Fla., in a position take over Edberg's No.1 spot in two weeks at the end of the next tournament in San Francisco.Monica Seles maintained her Two big holes gives No.1 ranking by winning the women's singles Saturday.Courier, ranked No.25 at the start of last year, left Australia trailing Edberg by only 20 points in the ATP computer rankings \u2014 3,671 to 3,651 \u2014 a difference he can easily overcome with early-round wins in San Francisco as Edberg sits out that event.Courier lacks the touch and graceful movement of some of those who held No.1, and he hasn\u2019t mastered the serve-and- volley game.Rather, he swings his short, punchy two-fisted backhand like a line-drive hitter in baseball.\u2018The real mark of a top player is who can do it year in and year out,\u2019 Courier said.\u2018\u2018\u2019This year I'm off to a good start to back up my year that I had last year.I think that the true champions are ones who keep on doing it every year.That's what I want to do.\u201d Courier, who captured his second Grand Slam title in six months, celebrated by dashing out of the stadium and jumping into a river with his tennis shorts on.Palmer senior skins KOHALA COAST.Hawaii (AP) \u2014 Arnold Palmer staged one of his classic charges Sunday to win two holes worth seven skins and $205,000 in the senior skins game.After playing poorly and being shut out the first day of the two-day tournament.Palmer stormed back to win $100,000 when he chipped in from the fringe on the 12th hole.then picked up $105,000 more with a 15-foot birdie putt on No.15.The total of $205,000 for Palmer, at 62 the oldest player in the senior skins, gave him the tournament title for 1992.He also won the senior skins in 1990, when he earned $240,000.Chi Chi Rodriguez won $105,000 Sunday.$70,000 with a 40-foot putt for birdie on No.17, .: and $35,000 with a five-foot bir- ° die putt on the first playoff hole ::: after

WENGEN.Switzerland (CP) \u2014 Germain Barrette, head coach of the Canadian men's downhill ski team, defended his squad's performance and its Winter Olympic preparations Sunday against comments made by Ken Read of Crazy Ca- nuck fame.Read.Canada\u2019s represena- tative on the International Ski Federation and a race commentator with CBC.described the team's performance in Saturday's World Cup race.the last prior to the Winter Games.as \u2018\u2018embarrassing.\u201d A 23rd-place finish by Brian Stemmle of Aurora.Ont.was the top Canadian result.Barrette, incensed.said he had expected better results but the only thing embarrassing about the race were Read's comments.\u201c1 know our guys are skiing really well and that's not embarrassing at all.\u201d said Barrette.\u2018They look better than most of the guys here.\u201cSure we didn't have a great result yesterday but we'll have some good results coming.\u2018 The winner of five World Cup downhills between 1975-80.Read also said he didn't think the team was preparing properly for the Winter Games.TEAM LEAVES Following the Wengen race.most of the team left for Cha- monix.France, to relax and free ski for six days before resuming serious training for the results Games, which begin Feb.8 in Albertville, France.Based on the team\u2019s poor results this season, Read said he felt more time might be better spent training.\u2018Chamonix is the best place to go.It's the best skiing in Europe.\u2019\u2019 said Barrette, noting his skiers had to go somewhere since they were unable to return home like many of the European teams.\u201cA lot of teams are going home and doing nothing.We're going to a ski area to train.\u2018\u2018We're not going on vacation.Some teams are going to * Paris or the Cote-d'Azur.We're going to ski.\u201d Barrette said Read has a long-running feud with former- coach John Ritchie, now the chief executive officer of Alpine Canada.Things were a little more positive on the slopes Sunday.Roman Torn of Burnaby.B.C.finished 16th in the combined event, which uses the results from Saturday's downhill and Sunday's slalom to determine a combined champion.Edi Podivinsky of Edmonton missed a gate and was disqualified.Paul Accola of Switzerland won the combined, strengthening his position atop the overall World Cup standings.Accola leads with 1,270 points followed by Italy's

real shame.\u201d DOESN'T HELP Pomykala said playing Concordia three times in two weeks doesn\u2019t help the situation either.Peter Campbell of the Ontario Universities Athletic Association made up the schedule for the Gaiters\u2019 St.Lawrence momar basketball division.Pomykala doesn\u2019t blame Campbell for the difficult stretch of games but said it has been really tough on his players.\u201cThey re being asked to play a professional schedule.\u201d and the players are students.after all, he said.Pomykala said the team hasn\u2019t had time to prepare for games and are simply physically exhausted.That.he said.is part of the reason the Gaiters didn\u2019t fare well against the Stingers in Friday night's game.\u201cWe had nothing to offer Concordia.\u201d he said bluntly.DOUBLED GAITERS The Stingers mounted up a 23-6lead in the first ten minutes of the game.and doubled the Gaiters to take a 49-24 lead at Gaiter Benoit Deschamps dribbles the ball into Concordia territory in a losing cause Friday.RTESY OF PERRY BEATON the half.Despite the 30-point difference in the outcome of the game.Pomykala said there was a \u201csilver lining\u201d to the game.He said he was impressed with the performance of plavers who came off the bench in the second half.First-year point guard Jamie Forsythe, 18.played for 12 minutes in the match.didn't turn the ball over once and sank a three-pointer.Colin Feasby played for only 10 minutes and was second on the team with six rebounds.Po- mykala said he was also pleased with the play of first-year players Andrew Rybak.who played 18 minutes, and Tim Wallace, who was in the game for 18 minutes.Ted Branch led the team with 10 points.Lesley Buness and the rest of the Lady Gaiters celebrate their first league victory Friday.The Gaiters dropped their second game in as many days when they fell 58-51 to the Carleton Ravens Saturday in Ottawa.The Ravens were suppose to nave played the Queen's Golden Gaels the previous day in Kingston.but Pomykala said the game was cancelled because Queen's was afraid of a meningitis outbreak in the Ottawa region.Had the Ravens played the game.Pomykala said they may have been as tired as the Gaiters.Pomykala said he called a time out in the dying seconds \u2014 with the game all but decided \u2014 to congratulate his team on their effort in a hard schedule.Benoit Deschamps led the Gaiters against the ravens with 14 points, while Tom Van Al- stine added 11 Lady Gaiters §1 Stingers 50 They won.The Bishop's Lady Gaiters celebrated their first league win of the season with a 51-50 victory over the Concordia Stingers Friday in Lennoxville.It wasn\u2019t easy: with two seconds left in the game, Kathy Williams sank a free throw to put the team up by one point.But the Gaiters fouled a Stinger player with no time on the clock.She went to the line and missed.giving the Gaiters victory.Alice Hartling led the team with 22 points in the win.The Lady Gaiters\u2019 next

were too much Sunday for Buffalo's no-huddle offence.The Redskins won their third Super Bowl in 10 years, 37-24, putting the game away with 24 straight points after a scoreless first quarter in which they blew two touchdown chances.The Bills, one-point losers to the New York Giants in the Super Bowl a year ago, never were in this one, although they made it closer with two touchdowns late in the fourth quarter.This Washington win was as much the work of obscure defenders like Kurt Gouveia, Brad Edwards, Fred Stokes, Jason Buck, Alvoid Mays and Andre Collins as any of the team\u2019s stars.Sure, MVP Mark Rypien threw for 292 yards and two touchdowns as Washington ran the NFC\u2019s streak in the NFL's marquee game to eight straight.Sure, the \u2018\u2018Posse\u2019\u2019 \u2014 receivers Art Monk, Gary Clark an Ricky Sanders \u2014 led a 17-point explosion in five minutes, 45 seconds of the the second quarter after a scoreless first period.That surge saw the Redskins use the no-huddle offence themselves in a modified reprise of their record 35-point second quarter in their Super Scoreboard Bowl] rout of Denver four years ago.And sure, Calgary-born Ry- pien hit Clark with a 30-yard TD pass with 1:24 left in the third quarter after Buffalo had cut a 24-0 lead to 24-10.But just as important was the work of a blitzing defence that shut down the NFL's most explosive offense until the Redskins had that lead It sacked Jim Kelly five times, got four interceptions \u2014 two by Edwards.It also forced a fumble in helping coach Joe Gibbs to his third Super Bowl win, tied with San Francisco's Bill Walsh and one behind Pittsburgh\u2019s Chuck Noll on the all- time list.Itheld Thurman Thomas, the league\u2019s MVP this year, to just 10 yards in eigi*t carries

Gerald Riggs\u2019 second one-yard TD run for a 24-0 lead.The next came when Mays sacked Kelly.forcing a fumble that wis recovered by Stokes.That set up Chip Lohmiller's 25-yard field goal that made it 34-10 six seconds into the fourth quarter.And the third was Edwards\u2019 second interception.tipped to him by Martin May- hew and returned 35 yards.That set up Lohmiller\u2019s 39-yard field goal for 37-10.That more than made up for Buffalo's one quick offensive spurt \u2014 a run of 10 points that followed the Gouveia-Riggs touchdown.And even then the defense contributed, stopping the Bills at the three-yard-line and forcing them to settle for Scott Norwood\u2019s 21-yard field goal that made it 24-3.Kelly was 28 of 58 for 275 yards, breaking the record for attempts set by Miami's Dan Marino.Marino had 50 in another losing effort, San Francisco's 38-16 win over the Dolphins that started the NFC'\u2019s winning streak.Kelly's four interceptions also tied the Super Bowl record.Thomas, meanwhile, was limited to just 13 yards on 10 rushes.Rypien completed 18 of 38 passes, while Monk had 7 catches for 113 yards.Pass-catching Posse picnics with pigskin MINNEAPOLIS (AP) \u2014 The pass-catching Posse won the Super Bowl shootout Sunday.Gary Clark.Art Monk and Ricky Sanders had a picnic in the Buffalo secondary in a 37-24 Washington romp that was constructed largely through the air.Clark was the major culprit.picking apart cornerback Nate Odomes for much of the game and climaxing the mismatch with a 30-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter that opened the lead to 31-10.It was his seventh catch of the game and gave him 114 vards receiving.Earlier.it seemed Monk would get that many on Washington's first drive.At 34.he is the elder statesman of the Posse.so old.in fact.he was there when the Redskins\u2019 wi- deouts were called the Fun Bunch.As the Redskins moved down the field on their second possession.Monk looked like a kid again.catching three passes from Mark Rypien.the game's most valuable player.He started the drive with a 12-yard reception, then caught back-to- back passes for 19 and 31 as Washington rolled to the Buffalo two-yard line.Monk then made a leaping catch in the end zone for an apparent touchdown, but the score was reversed by the replay official.who ruled that Monk did not have both feet down in the end zone.It was only a temporary interruption for the Posse.Sanders caught a 41-yard pass.setting up the first score of the game.a 34-yard field goal by Chip Lohmiller.Then Rypien went to Clark for 16 yards and Monk for eight, setting up the Redskins\u2019 first touchdown, a 10-yard pass to Ernest Byner.On their next possession, Clark caught a 34-yarder, positioning the ball for a one-yard TD run by Gerald Riggs and a 17-0 lead.The rout was on.orchestrated by the three wideouts.who see themselves as outriders, tough guys on search-and- destroy missions in the secondary. 12\u2014The RECORD\u2014Menday.January

Easy and convenient.\u2014 POLLY DEAR POLLY \u2014 Recently, I was going through some snapshots and thought: Wouldn't it be nice to leave a few around to look at when I want to see them.They'd come in handy when I'm entertaining, too.So, I put them on the desk, the bureau, the coffee table, etc.\u2014 just one or two to an area.| find myself enjoying them daily.RUTH DEAR POLLY \u2014 Luxury?Driving six miles to work every morning means hitting 10 stoplights \u2014 and another 10 to get back home! Multiply that by five and that's my work week.Leaving a little earlier or later doesn't seem to remedy this problem of wasted time.I'd feel like a fantasy queen for a month, even a day, with a flying machine to buzz me around and above my own Magic Kingdom \u2014 subject to none.Thanks for reminding me that a brief moment of escape is good as I sit at the stoplight waiting for it to change.\u2014

1992 NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN.POLLY'S POINTERS POLLY FISHER What is treatment for melanoma?By Peter H.Gott, M.D.DEAR DR.GOTT: Would you please discuss melanoma?A few weeks ago I had a small black spot removed from my arm.It was malignant, and three weeks later my surgeon removed more tissue that was benign.Now I have to have blood, lung and liver studies every six months for five years.What's the scoop\u201d DEAR READER: Melanoma refers to a group of skin cancers composed of melanocytes, the cells that produce pigment.Some melanomas are relatively slow-growing.but most are highly malignant.They appear as black or dark brown, flat, irregular spots.The diagnosis is confirmed by biopsy.Melanomas must be completely removed.Because melanoma cells can extend out from the original lesion, surgeons must be certain that ALL malignant tissue is excised.Therefore, the standard treatment is to remove the melanoma, along with a wide border of normal appearing skin.This specimen is then meticulously examined under a microscope; if unsuspected melanoma cells are identified in the healthy skin, further excision must be performed.Of course, since malignant melanomas burrow into subcutaneous tissue, the surgical excision must extend below the skin.Once the malignant cells have been completely removed, the patient must be carefully monitored (usually by a dermatologist) for a recurrence or appearance of new melanomas on the skin.Because these cancers are related to sun damage, patients must protect themselves from direct sunlight by using appropriate clothing and/or sunscreens.Like any cancer, melanoma has the potential to spread internally through the lymph system.Thus, doctors often perform tests, such as lung and liver scans, to make sure that some melanoma cells have not escaped detection and lodged 1n these (and other) organs When malanoma has metastasized (spread), physicians usually recommend further treatment with radiation or chemotherapy.You appear to have received excellent care Your doctor is being prudent to test you further.If, after five years, there 1s no sign of the original melanoma, you are considered cured.To give you further information, | am sending you a free copy of my Health Report \u201cWhat You Should Know About Skin Cancer\u201d Other readers who would like a copy should send $1 25 plus a long, self-addressed, stamped envelope to PO Box 91369, Cleveland, OH 44101-3369 Be sure to mention the title DEAR DR.GOTT: I'm a 7l-year- old male with arthritis.Every joint in my body hurts from head to toe.Even my ribs and muscles ache.I'm on arthritis medicine and have problems understanding why the pain isn't under control.DEAR READER: Arthritis, like many diseases, is marked by a spectrum of severity.For example, early osteoarthritis, the age-related wearing down of joints, causes early-morn- ing stiffness and mild pain during strenuous exercise, which are usually relieved by non-prescription medicine, such as aspirin and acetaminophen.On the other hand, rheumatoid arthritis, a common inflammatory joint condition, can be so painful that patients can barely walk and often become severely handicapped.In such cases, strong prescription drugs, such as prednisone, may be necessary.In some instances, surgical replacement of the affected joints is the only way to regain mobility.The pain of most arthritis, of course, falls between these two extremes.Consequently, the treatment must be personalized, depending on the patient's age, level of independence and degree of discomfort.I gather from your question that your treatment has been ineffective.Therefore, I suggest you return to your doctor for modification of your therapy.For example, a change to one of the newer anti-arthritics, such as Lodine or Voltaren, might benefit you.Also, you could be helped by a program of physical therapy, heat treatments and massage.Further, injections of gold compounds \u2014 or oral therapy with antimalarial drugs, such as Plaquenil have been found useful for many patients with inflammatory arthritis.Finally, there is always prednisone.a cortisone drug, that truly relieves symptoms of most forms of arthritis; unfortunately, this drug has many unwanted side effects, among them cataracts, bone-brittleness and diabetes Therefore, if you take this drug it must be closely monitored by your physician.I've given this rather long-winded answer to your question to show that much can be done to alleviate your pain.If, using the suggestions I made, your doctor cannot help you, request a referral to a rheumatologist, such a specialist can coordinate your further care.DEAR DR.GOTT My sister does not eat red meat and has begun an iron tonic to replace what she presumably doesn\u2019t get from her diet When [ informed her this could be dangerous and cause adverse affects, she replied that because the tome came from a health food store and is \u201cnatural\u201d it is completely safe | dis agree.Who's on the right track?DEAR READER: Without knowing the name of the tonic, I cannot comment specifically about whether it\u2019s safe or not.It would be as inappropriate for me to issue a blanket condemnation of \u201cnatural\u201d tonics as it is for people to assume, without critical analysis, that all \u201chealth food\u201d is safe.In other words, a product sold in a health-food store is neither safer, more dangerous nor more healthful than a corresponding product sold elsewhere.Reading labels in health-food stores can be quite an exciting experience.You'd be surprised at the stuff added to foods advertised as \u201cnatural.\u201d Therefore, when purchasing food or over-the-counter medicine (such as tonics and vitamins), the smart consumer should carefully check the ingredients, regardless of the type of retail outlet.\u2018To provide more information, | am sending you a free copy of my Health Report \u201cFads 1 \u2014 Vitamins and Minerals.\u201d

E.T.Writers ARCHIE \u2014 ESTER Did you hear \u201cKirbycraft nearly went bankrupt\u201d On the eve of the New Year Too many arrows were pointed ready.Hitting every time right in the ear.It was just a small commetion And am sure for the best reason Caused by the great change of circumstance Maybe it was the change of season.The pens and pencils on the desk Were on the warpath for sure Everyone fighting for their turn To write up something \u201cPure\u201d They waited while the holidays went by Possibly waiting for a chance To ship into a coat pocket For a trip or maybe to peek in on a Romance.The days and nights of 92.Are passing like those of yesteryear If these pens and pencils don\u2019t get going They could miss another year.Can't stand to have them unemployed Even though their revenue is small Some days they (the pens) do a terrific job To make the author stand tall.The color or the type of pen Is not of much importance As long as one can be found 0 To write down the words in short notice.The sales counters have been searched For a ballpoint that writes in brown For \u201cHeavens\u2019 Sakes\u201d people make a ballpoint That will write continuously when held upside down.A welding rod has been made To weld at any angle Come on folks think of it | Why can\u2019t a simple ballpoint pen Be made to write continually at all angles.i The \u201cPens & Pencils\u201d are back at work | Sorry for the interruption In a week or two - do as I have to do Read on or maybe \u201cRenew your subscription\u201d.There was no raise in pay To get the \u201cPens and Pencils\u201d back to work | The union boss was given a toss ; And the pens & pencils took the hint.Produce or else if you want to be friends Must have some poems out before spring So pack up your selfishness at both ends Start writing again about your thing.Kirbycraft 92 lan H.Kirby Compton, Que.Record Jo-Ann Hovey Advertising Consultant Tel: 819-569-9525 Fax: 819-569-3945 = Stock up on postage stamps!
