[" ROBERETEEREN LONCI CLASS IN SHERBROOKE TEEN NEARY SCHOO HOT SUMMER AY Quebec Tout to sign for self-government By Daniel Sanger MONTREAL (CP) \u2014 A major self-government deal to be signed today could give the Inuit of Quebec their own elected assembly with wide-ranging powers across the northern third of the province within as little as a year.The framework agreement could see the Inuit take over administration of all or part of the justice, social service and education systems north of the mem Brigid Shea, 14, and Emily Murphy, 12, from Montreal and Sarah Lebaron of North Hatley take time out to 55th parallel, said Michel Payant, an aide to Inuit leader Simeonie Nalukturuk.It will be signed in Montreal by Nalukturuk, president of Maki- vik Corp., the main political and economic body of Quebec\u2019s Inuit, and Christos Sirros, Quebec minister of native affairs and natural resources.Marie-Josée Gagné, Sirros\u2019 press attachée, confirmed the signing of the deal but would not enjoy Lake Massawipi\u2019s cool waters.More pictures inside.give any details on Wednesday.However, Payant said the Inuit consider it a major agreement that could give them the tools not only to solve many of the problems plaguing the north but to offer government services more effectively and at less cost.\u201cAs things stand, there is so much overlap now that everyo- nes agrees it can be done better by a government actually up there.\u201d RECORD: GRANT SIMEON Payant said the agreement is the product of more than a decade of discussions and good intentions even if actual negotiations

will enforce the rules\u201d Tobin cuts turbot quota, warns Quebec fishermen By Foin Kenny OTTAWA (CP) \u2014 Fisheries Minister Brian Tobin slashed Canadian quotas on turbot by up to 75 per cent Wednesday and warned Quebec fishermen he will strictly enforce the new conservation measures.The warning was directed at a number of Gaspé Peninsula trawler captains who said earlier this week they would fish for turbot off Labrador with or without departmental permits.As well, there are another 20 or so boats in Newfoundland which are gearing up to enter the turbot fishery, Tobin said.\u201cI'm prepared to prevent vessels that are fishing contrary to the regulations from fishing.You must obey the rules and this minister will enforce the rules.\u201d \u2018Tobin said there are 50,000 people laid off in the Atlantic fishery \u201cwho would instantly put their boats into the water\u201d if he caved in to the pressure to issue additional turbot licences.In recent weeks, reports have suggested the decline in turbot stocks mirrors that of the once plentiful northern cod which is now teetering on the brink of extinction despite two years of fishing bans.As a result, Tobin cancelled a trial fishery for turbot off Labrador two weeks ago and cut the Davis Strait fishery from 12,500 tonnes to 5,500.On Wednesday, he announced further reductions.He cut the turbot fishery off Labrador to 3,000 tonnes from 12,500 and off Young rider killed by horse at Fleurimont stable \u2014 Page 3 northeastern Newfoundland to 3,500 tonnes from 12,500.As well, he restricted the fishery to licence holders who fished turbot in previous years.\u201cWe can allow no new fishing effort on these fragile stocks.It would be irresponsible to add new Canadian effort to a stock already depleted by foreign fleets.at atime when we are asking the rest of the world to reduce its effort.\u201d Tobin said he plans to appeal to the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization for a reduced turbot catch in international waters.He said he can sympathize with fishermen \u201cwho just want to work, who just want to get out on the water.\u201cBut saying yes to additional effort in the short term can mean destroying the resource for the long term.Shifting the effort to other fisheries can create a chain reaction of crises.\u201d + Liberals wear brave face on eve of election battle By Don Macdonald and Paul Mooney The Canadian Press Quebecers will be given a choice between Confederation and a fast-track toward independence in a provincial election that may be called as soon as today.JE Polls suggest it will take an upset for Premier Daniel John- on\u2019s Liberals to defeat the Parti Québécois in the vote that will likely be held Sept.12.But Liberals put on a brave face Wednesday.About 1,500 defied sweltering heat to pack an arena in Vaudreuil, north of Montreal, for Johnson\u2019s nominating rally.\u201cLike they say in English: when you're hot, you're hot,\u201d the normally staid Johnson quipped.He gave no clue as to the timing of the election call.The premier urged Quebecers to choose federalism.\u201cWe have a commitment from our Canadian partners that will strengthen Quebec's place in North America \u2014 \u2014 why leave that?\u201d he asked.\u2019 Johnson said federalism will ensure Quebecers an improved standard of living.He said the PQ\u2019s plans offer the exact opposite.But the Liberals, who are completing their second term, face an uphill battle.No Quebec government has managed three consecutive mandates since Union Nationale strongman Maurice Duplessis did it in the 1950s.PQ Leader Jacques Parizeau has promised to hold a referendum on independence within the 10 months following a Parti- Québécois victory.The uncertainty of a referendum could force up interest rates, depress the Canadian dollar and slow economic recovery.Liberals insisted Wednesday that their polls show that they are only trailing by three or four percentage points instead of the 10-point advantage given to the PQ in the most recent poll.PQ officials are already warning their workers to avoid euphoria and they can\u2019t hide their confidence that their party is finishing a nine-year slog in opposition.But a senior adviser to Pari- zeau suggested it would take a serious gaffe to deny his party victory.\u201cTo influence such a well- established trend in the polls there would have to be some really major events during the campaign,\u201d Jean Royer said in an interview.The Liberals are pinning their hopes on Johnson.They believe he will shine when compared to his older, separatist opponent, the 63-year-old Parizeau.But Parizeau can count on help from Lucien Bouchard, leader of the pro-sovereignty Bloc Québécois and a popular politician in Quebec.Johnson, 49, will try to paint the election as a stark choice between conflict and economic instability under Parizeau versus job creation and deficit control under the Liberals.\u201cThe people aren\u2019t buying the separation of Quebec and they don't like Jacques Parizeau,\u201d said deputy premier Monique Gagnon-Tremblay.\u201cIt will be a dogfight and we will win.I'm convinced of that,\u201d said Education Minister Jacques Chagnon on his way into a cabinet meeting.\u2018Separatist\u2019 threat By Laura Eggertson WASHINGTON (CP) \u2014 A Massachusetts college says it has sold

July 21, 1994 Imports sold for less than cost of production Dominion Granite\u2019s Kelly Conn was beaming yesterday after reading a copy of the ruling handed down by a federal trade panel.By Dwane Wilkin BEEBE \u2014 The Canadian granite industry is rejoicing over the findings of a federal trade panel set up to review dumping charges against importers of Indian- made tombstones.On Wednesday the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) ruled that imports of Indian black-granite monuments and certain types of unfinished granite slabs are being sold in Canada for less than it costs to produce them in India.If uncontested, the ruling will give Ottawa the green light to hit importers of Indian monuments ~ with special permanent duties to 4 2 protect Canadian stone-shops.In a one-page summary of its \u2018 decision, the three-member trade panel wrote that imports from India \u201chave caused, are à 0 40 \u2018Sobriety should reign supreme\u2019 Live man\u2019s stone causing stir in

Stanstead granite.But it\u2019s big \u2014 two-metres high by four metres long.It also has a big red 1903 Model-A Ford on it.And it\u2019s at the corner of a major intersection near the famous Gran-

monument as big and colorful as that has no place in a Roman Catholic cemetery where sobriety should reign supreme.\u201d Lapierre would like the tombsto- causing and are likely to cause material injury\u201d to Canadian producers.The ruling was based on the findings of a separate three- month investigation by Revenue Canada.UNFAIR SUBSIDIES The trade tribunal also supported claims by domestic producers and Revenue Canada that the Indian government unfairly subsidizes exports of black- granite monuments.\u201cEveryone is obviously very pleased with the finding,\u201d said Kelly Conn, a spokesperson for the Canadian Granite Association which lodged a formal complaint with Revenue Canada late last year.\u201cWe're kind of waiting to see if (the importers) will appeal, but the odds of them going through ne moved perhaps to the back of the large burial ground behind some trees.Boisvert disagrees.\u201cI paid for it and its mine,\u201d he said in an interview in a Montreal hospital where he is being treated for a serious lung ailment.\u201cThe reason I bought that space in the front of the cemetery in 1987 is because that\u2019s where I want to be buried.\u201d Because of failing eyesight, Bois- vert, 58, can\u2019t drive.But for more than 30 years he has loved and collected antique cars.He has helped organize an annual exhibition of vintage vehicles from Canada and the U.S.which draws between 10,000 and 15,000 to Gran- by every summer.And he says he is the only man in the world who owns two Model-A Fords.He lives on his pension and supports his hobby with an auto-parts business.Glancing through a U.S.antique car magazine one day, he read about a collector buried under a life-size granite replica of his favorite car and he started considering it.\u201cDon\u2019t worry, I'm reasonably healthy,\u201d he said.\u201cBut at my age it\u2019s time to start thinking about these things.\u201d He bought 12 burial plots seven years ago and a dozen more this spring.\u201cIt seems like a lot,\u201d Boisvert said with a laugh.\u201cBut now there's room for all my relatives.\u201d He chose the stone for his unique grave marker at a quarry in the Eastern Townships village of Beebe.It took Granby Granite Ltd.about three weeks to finish the design to his satisfaction.Boisvert doesn\u2019t think he\u2019s eccentric.\u201cPeople who don\u2019t like it should travel a bit,\u201d he said.\u201cIf they checked out cemeteries in Paris they'd see much bigger monuments than mine.\u201d And he doesn\u2019t mind the fuss.\u201cYou should see the place on Sundays,\u201d he said.\u201cPeople line up to get their picture taken beside my tombstone.\u201d People like the woman above \u2018line up to the review process and being successful are fairly remote,\u201d said Conn, who operates the Dominion Granite company in Beebe.Revenue Canada effectively stopped all imports of Indian biack-granite monuments last March, when it imposed a provisional 89 per cent tariff while it carried out its investigation.Black-granite monuments account for nearly a third of the $30-million-a-year market for gravestones in Canada, Conn said.And their popularity continues to grow.PRICES SOARED Until the late 1980s, exports of unfinished black granite from India were common, he said, with most of the designing, carving and polishing being carried out in Canadian shops.But the supply of raw black granite from { antique car buff Gilles Boisvert.Trade panel: India dumping granite in Canada India has dried up and its price skyrocketed in recent years.Conn said that\u2019s because the Indian government has been giving financial incentives to Indian exporters to ship finished monuments.\u201cWe don\u2019t have any problems with Indians shipping monuments to Canada,\u201d said Conn.\u201cWhere we have a problem is with countries who provide subsidies that make it impossible for us to compete.\u201d The granite association says that between 1990 and 1993, its members saw a 20 per cent decline in hours worked by their employees, which it attributes directly to a loss of market share for black-granite products.Importers and exporters of Indian black-granite have 30 days to appeal the ruling.3 - .- - - 20.wer get their picture taken beside my tombstone,\u2019 says Granby i.He ln 7 = Ey, oe RECORD PHOTOS/GRANT SIMEON A À

slope to outright closure, the Parti Québécois charged Wednesday morning.But the comments paled quickly in the afternoon with news that the local hospital and community clinic will soon have two new doctors on staff.Richard Arsenault, PQ candidate for the Richmond riding, accused the Liberal government of making cuts to health-care spending which have left regional hospitals like the one in Asbestos with no choice but to eliminate what should be considered essential services.Arsenault is trying for a second rime to unseat the riding\u2019s Liberal MP, Yvon Vallières.\u201cThe more that

fighting Quebec TORONTO (CP) \u2014 Minority shareholders of Asbestos Corp.said Wednesday they would continue their fight against the Quebec government in spite of a setback at the Ontario Securities Commission.The OSC ruling against the shareholders, released late Tuesday, sent Asbestos Corp.stock plunging $15.50 to close at $6.50 on the Toronto Stock Exchange in trading Wednesday.The stock has traded as high as $53 this year, as investors speculated there would be a resolution in the dispute.\u201cBut nobody has given up yet,\u201d said Barry Bresner, the lawyer for minority shareholders.The group has been in a battle with Quebec since 1986, when the province paid $80 a share for the 54.6 per cent stake in Asbestos Corp.held by St.Louis-based defence contractor dealer General Dynamics Corp.The minority shareholders want Quebec to pay them the same price, plus interest.However, the OSC ruled that the Ontario Securities Act at the time did not require Quebec to make a follow-up offer to the other shareholders.The panel also said it lacked jurisdiction, because in its view, the transaction took place in Quebec.However, the OSC also said: \u201cThe actions of the Quebec government failed to comply with the spirit underlying the takeover bid rules,\u201d and that Quebec\u2019s actions were \u201cabusive of the minority shareholders and manifestly unfair to them.\u201d From his Toronto office, Bres- ner said there are a number of legal avenues open to the minority shareholders.\u201cWe could proceed by way of court action in either the U.S.or Quebec, or continue with efforts to have the matter heard by the Quebec Securities Commission,\u201d he said.annual budget.Pre-campaign statements from other PQ candidates in the Eastern Townships suggest the party plans to build much of its campaign around fallout from the Liberal government\u2019s attempts to cut costs in the area of health and social services.Arsenault\u2019s election team yesterday positioned their candidate behind an Asbestos woman who has been circulating a petition denouncing hospital cutbacks.Carmen Dodier says she has collected 3,000 names on the petition so far and her complaints have been forwarded to Rémy Trudel, the Parti Québécois\u2019s health critic.The party is cultivating a similar movement in Drum- mondville, where some women there have complained of a lack

fhe The Voice of the Eastern Townships since 1897 Editorial It\u2019s only a TV show Twenty-five years after Neil Armstong first stepped foot on the surface of the moon people are still fascinated by the endless possibilities outer space may contain.However some people take it a little further than others and they make you wonder if perhaps they are a few planets short of a galaxy.There is nothing out-of-the-ordinary about the odd UFO sighting or tales of alien abuductions.We have no positive proof that we are the only living beings in the universe.We can\u2019t be certain that a short, green, three-eyed version of Neil Armstong didn\u2019t step down onto the lunar surface a milennium ago.But there is one thing we can be certain of: Captain James Tiberius Kirk is a fictional character created by Gene Roddenberry and brought to life in Star Trek.However, a group of Trekkies recently founded a religion based on the TV series in Texas.Somewhere along the way these people became convinced that Kirk was a messiah and Roddenberry a prophet.Talk about missing the (space)ship.The original show certainly came before its time, but its world was far from utopian.Although the Federation praised the ideas of peace, equality and noninterference it really didn\u2019t live up to bill.There was plenty of violence, destruction, killing and environmental waste in Star Trek.Instead of living harmoniously with aliens they encountered, Kirk and the crew often engaged them in battle.Ask Lieutenant Uhura about equality on the bridge.Kirk\u2019s character was hardly a man to be held up as a model for all to follow.He was a womanizer and an ego-maniac.The pewer version of the show was more up to fate, but it still maintained many of the tragic flaws of the original.Sure both shows are fun to watch, because they provide entertainment that is lacking in much of what the networks fill the airwaves with, but should they be emulated and revered?Hardly.Organizers of last week\u2019s vul-CON (vulcan convention) in Vulcan, Alberta were disappointed when only 60 Trekkies attended after 400 fans showed up for the first conference.Well its obvious the other 340 were on a pilgrimmage to Texas.Some years ago William Shatner, the man who made Kirk and T.J.Hooker household names, was a guest-host on Saturday Night Live.Shatner and the cast did a spoof of a Star Trek convention, Shatner played himself and at one point he yelled at the Trekkies, \u201cFor God\u2019s sake it\u2019s only a TV show, grow up will you.\u201d Apparently they didn\u2019t get the message.ROBERT MATHESON Manning searching \u201c7° Maur, +000 OTTAWA (CP) \u2014 Preston Manning, Canada\u2019s political chameleon, has changed his colors once again to portray a friend to Quebec.The western-born leader of the Reform Party spent two days on the eve of a provincial election there, trying to sell his brand of renewed federalism to voters who are tired of separatist battles but want an option to status quo Confederation.Heres a sense of his sales trip: SCENE ONE: Turtle Hill Equestrian Farm, near the Vermont-Quebec border.Manning speaks to 45 neighbors and friends gathered in an expansive living room.His attentive listeners, standing alongside framed portraits of horses and perched on overstuffed couches, look like they've walked off the pages of a

reducing the role of the federal government and giving more power to provinces.\u201cWhatever might be the future of this country, Ottawa should look more and more like a referee and less and less

From What Canada Thinks, a regular feature of The Canadian Press AECL: Nuclear waste site safe if left alone By Tom Spears and Ron Eade Ottawa Citizen CHALK RIVER, Ont.(CP) \u2014 Radioactive waste buried nearly 50 years ago in sandy soil at Chalk River Laboratories is polluting local vegetation, swamps, lakes and wildlife.But experts at Atomic Energy Canada Ltd., which owns the site, say it\u2019s safe and any cleanup would be too expensive and hazardous to workers.At least 6,000 truckloads of old waste \u2014 a mix of discarded lab coats, test tubes and even a nuclear reactor core and other debris from two accidents in the 1950s \u2014 sit in shallow sand trenches.They have been leaching radioactivity into the groundwater since at least 1954 when pollution testing first began at the research facility, 210 kilometres northwest of Ottawa.In large enough quantities, these radioactive elements \u2014 strontium, tritium and others \u2014 can cause cancer.The question is: Are the amounts at Chalk River worth worrying about?BELOW SAFETY NORMS AECL experts say none of the contamination that gets loose will hurt anyone because the amount of radiation is far below what the government considers safe in drinking water.Other experts say federal limits for at least one of the contaminants \u2014 tritium \u2014 are far too high.In some cases, percolating rainwater has created plumes of radiation that have travelled half a kilometre underground, only to bubble to the surface and contaminate swamps and streams on AECL property.The surface water, in turn, has trickled into picturesque Perch Lake, which registers radiation levels more than 1,000 times higher than normal.Two kilometres downstream, a creek from Perch Lake drains into the Ottawa River.AECL says time is on its side because most of the radioactive waste breaks down over a few decades.The Crown corporation also notes that radioactive junk buried more recently in concrete bunkers hasn\u2019t leaked.NEEDLESS EXPOSURE Digging up and sealing all the old radioactive waste in new concrete bunkers would cost between $200 million and $300 million, AECL estimates.And it says workers would be needlessly exposed to the waste.HOur own programmers at the moment are saying we don\u2019t believe it\u2019s warranted to dig those wastes up.\u201dsays Douglas Champ, AECL\u2019s waste management director at Chalk River.AECL says people or animals that eat tritium would excrete almost all of it very quickly.However, an autopsy on a moose killed by a vehicle on the Chalk River highway five years ago showed high levels of tritium stayed in the animal\u2019s liver.Other animals, chiefly beavers, have also been contaminated, says Doug Killey, a hydro-geologist at AECL.Researchers stopped examining dead animals in the mid-1980s, although they continue to test samples of the groundwater.They also check fish from the Ottawa River, which mostly come up clean.Today in History The Treaty of Breda, which restored Acadia to France, was signed in the Netherlands 327 years ago today \u2014 in 1667.The treaty provided for France's restoration to England of part of the island of St.Christopher\u2019s, West Indies, in exchange for Acadia, captured from the French in 1654 by Britain\u2019s New England forces.Also on this day in: 1988 \u2014 Canada\u2019s War Measures Act of 1914 was set aside when the new Emergencies Act was given royal assent.Young teachers caught in cutback pinch By Simona Chiose TORONTO (CP) \u2014 Amy Powell is in the midst of a two-month summer holiday.But the 26-year-old teacher isn\u2019t sure she\u2019ll be able to make the most of the time off.Like many other young teachers, Powell is feeling the pinch of government restraint.Ontario legislation passed last summer froze her salary, about $35,000 a year, until 1996.And government cutbacks mean that the course she needs to upgrade her qualifications is $200 more expensive this year.\u201cI would have liked to take a course this summer, but I really can't afford it.Even with the rent I pay for my small apartment, I don\u2019t have money left over,\u201d says Powell, who has been a teacher at St.Edward School in Toronto for a year.In the coming months, graduates from education faculties across the country are likely to stare down the same kind of problems faced by Powell.That\u2019s if they're lucky enough to find work.Supply teaching is often the only work available.POUNDING PAVEMENT And that means that instead of having the summer months to take courses, prepare for the coming year and maybe relax, graduates and young teachers are more likely to be pounding the pavement looking for temporary work, stretching their savings to cover their expenses or applying for unemployment insurance.\u201cIn B.C., the majority of young teachers are doing supply work for two to five years before their first full-time position,\u201d says Al Cornes, director of bargaining for the B.C.Teachers\u2019 Federation.As supply teachers, says Cornes, graduates\u2019 salaries are closer to $15,000 a year, rather than the starting salary of about $30,000.Cornes says that with a probable loss of 500 to 600 full-time teaching positions in British Columbia next year, the trend toward supply work will continue.And supply teachers have little chance to supplement those wages.\u201cThey very rarely get jobs in summer school because openings are posted in schools in the winter.By the time summer comes, almost everything is snapped up,\u201d says Audrey Williams of the Ontario Public Service Union, which represents 1,500 supply teachers in Toronto.BIGGER CLASSES It wasn\u2019t always like this.Six years ago, seven out of 10 Ontario graduates were working only months after graduating.But by last year, less than three out of 10 graduates were employed within a few months.Its not that teachers aren't needed, says Mary Bruce of the Federation of Women Teachers\u2019 Associations of Ontario.Class sizes are actually getting bigger.But along with the wage freeze passed by Ontario\u2019s government last summer, school boards were asked to cut their staffing costs by 4.75 per cent by 1996.\u201cThe boards are trying to meet that target by attrition,\u201d Bruce says.\u201cWhen someone retires, they may not hire anyone to replace them.\u201d Some prospective teachers are going into the profession already thinking they will not find work after graduation.Pat Micelli, 24, beat out about 6,000 applicants for one of about 1,000 spots in the University of Toronto\u2019s one-year bachelor of education program.But Micelli says she has no illusions about her employment prospects after graduation.\u201cI'm really expecting not to find work with one of the school boards.So I'm researching different community organizations and literacy programs where I could apply my teaching skills,\u201d Micelli says.A few graduates are even going to the United States, says Carol Beynon, director of placement at the University of Western Ontario.\u201cA lot of the positions in the U.S.are in the inner cities,\u201d Beynon says.\u201cIt may be a little rougher, and the pay is not as good, but some are really interested in that kind of work.And they see it\u2018as a way to get experience so they can come back and be hired here.\u201d Farm and Business After merger talks break down CP moves to buy east half of public railway By Allan Swift MONTREAL (CP) \u2014 Canadian Pacific says it wants to buy out parts of its historic rival CN North

gift to CP shareholders.\u201d DIFFERENT APPROACH CP Rail chairman Barry Scott said they decided to take a different approach to tackle the problems that the merger was intended to overcome.\u201cWe concluded the most straightforward answer would be an offer by CP to purchase CN operations in the East and U.S.central bank head says rates are likey to keep rising this year WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan served notice Wednesday that the U.S.central bank probably hasn\u2019t finished raising interest rates this year.Greenspan\u2019s tough talk rattled both stock and bond markets as investors worried that further rate hikes could be imminent.The Dow Jones industrial average fell more than 20 points, while the Toronto Stock Exchange 300 composite index was down 18 points.In his twice-a-year report to the U.S.Congress on monetary policy, Greenspan warned that Denison TORONTO (CP) \u2014 Denison Mines has reached agreement with its lenders to exchange some of its debts for cash and stock as the mining and gas company begins to restructure.Denison said Wednesday the agreement covers the total $95 million it owes its corporate lenders and Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp.The corporate lenders, which include the Toronto Dominion Bank and Bank of America, are owed $77 million, while CMHC New businesses are the key to growing employment rate An education more closely tuned to the requirements of future employers: That is the usual best hope for employment for those who are entering the job market for the first time.Improve old skills and learn new ones: Those are the usual best hopes for new employment for older workers whose jobs have been lost to mergers and restructuring, to machines that can perform better, or to obsolescence.But how effectively have the best hopes been realized?It is, perhaps, too soon to say for those preparing to enter the labor force for the first time.The necessary changes in the educational system are only just beginning.What of those now in the labor force?Judging from the unemployment rate, skills improvement and retaining have hardly been effective at all.Again, it may be too soon to say.One reason could be saturation.It is exemplified by the the Fed was beginning to see increasing signs of future inflation, which he said could not be allowed to get out of hand.\u201cAn increase in inflation would come at considerable cost,\u201d he told the Senate Banking Committee.\u201cHarsher policy actions would eventually be necessary to reverse the upsurge in inflationary instabilities.We are determined to prevent such an outcome.\u201d Greenspan left no doubt that the Fed, which has already boosted interest rates four times since February, was prepared to do more should conditions warrant.reaches is in for $16 million.The Ontario Mortgage Corp.has agreed to release Denison from its $2 million debt.Denison intends to distribute to creditors the $37.7 million it received from an Ontario Hydro arbitration award plus a surplus in the company\u2019s salaried pension plan.Bill James, Denison\u2019s chief executive officer, would not disclose the amount in the pension plan.Once that\u2019s been done, both the corporate lenders and CMHC have agreed not to make federal expenditure of $200 million over the next three years to retrain some 9,000 of the currently unemployed so they can find jobs in the tourist industry.Business Sense By John Meyer \u201c i - Is Human Resources Minister Axworthy, sponsor of this \u201cNational Job Creation and Tourism Initiative\u201d aware of the already- widespread existence of private and public training facilities; the size of their enrolments; and the tourism industry's unemployment rate?OVER-REGULATION Jobs are not created by training people for positions already filled and with waiting lists.They are not created, either, by increasing payroll taxes and The Fed\u2019s target for the federal funds rate \u2014 the interest banks charge each other \u2014 has been pushed to 4.25 per cent from three per cent.The credit tightening has sent business and consumer loans, including mortgage rates, up by even greater amounts.However, private economists said they believed the central bank would wait until its Aug.16 meeting and perhaps longer before raising rates again.Many forecasters predicted the Fed will boost rates in quarter-point increments perhaps twice more this year.\u201cGreenspan is telling us that deal with lenders any claim on other Denison assets, and will convert any remaining debt to Denison common shares.James said it hasn\u2019t been determined yet who is getting how much in terms of either money or stock.\u201cWe haven't even talked to them about that,\u201d he said in an interview.\u201cThat\u2019s going to happen a few months down the road.\u201d As part of the distribution, up to $16 million will be placed in trust for reclamation of Deni- imposing more regulations

like the steel companies, have downsized.Automation has taken a permanent toll in all companies.Job creation now depends most of all on new employers\u2014 men and women who have started companies to provide new products and services.As they grow, so will employment grow.Our governments, however, are curiously ambiguous about them.They make start-up financing available.They offer favorable tax rates.But once a new enterprise is started, they smother it under the weight of paper.Small business owners used to say the amount of government forms to fill out was the greatest impediment to their growth.They still say it.the economy is looking firm, its strength has spilled over into some early signs of inflation and the Fed is prepared to tighten to prevent any incipient inflation,\u201d said Allen Sinai, chief economist at Lehman Brothers in New York.Greenspan listed a number potential inflation threats, from rapid growth in the U.S.economy and jobs to the recent weakness in the

was + arranged by his son Rick and friends.It began with a buffet supper ! prepared by the ladies of the Stanstead Assembly.It was hastily re- + organized from outdoors to inside because of torrential rain.When the rain passed the party moved to the front lawn for a program that _ began with a singsong led by Alec vanZuiden and Rick on their guitars.Peter Scott, M.C.for the evening, called upon Dan Green who gave a Bible based message concerning the wise and foolish builders (Matt.7) George Corbiére spoke of his friendship with Keith as co-worker and hunting companion.Lyndon McKelvey, on behalf of the Stans- tead Assembly, wished Keith a happy retirement.Walter Scott then presented a wild life picture to Keith and his wife Barbara, a gift from ; the fifty friends who attended from Cherry River, Magog, Stanstead * and area.Rick spoke of his dad\u2019s various occupations, mentioning Jim Quil- : llams who was Keith\u2019s faithful employee during his years in the groce- \u201c ry business.Highlight of the evening was a song composed and sung : by Rick and dedicated to his father.In several verses it was a brief biography of Keith\u2019s life and his trust in the Lord.: The past six years Keith has been with the Eastern Township's - Regional School Board.Now at retirement age he has decided to hang up his uniform for a hobby of apple farming.Keith thanked all for .their thoughtfulness.Fred Warnholtz closed the evening in prayer.LE ok In the.small town of Island Brook, many years ago, the gentle man of whom | speak learned to hold his own.From household chores and neighbour's farms he learned what it would take, fo build a life with his own hands, not just get what he could take.The streams were filled with trout they say, more than they are today, and evenings found him wading through the currents on their way.He knew the rocks he knew the holes, he'd learned when they would bite, years later he would bring his son to share with him this rite.One of the greatest jobs he did came in 1946 when he rang the bell of freedom for mothers and young wives.Friends and neighbours gave their lives fo be sure that we'd be free, though young he knew the meaning of the price that freedom brings.The day did come when he did leave that precious paradise : and just a few years later : he found a lovely wife.: They provided for a daughter, ! they provided for a son, tricycles and bicycles and love for everyone.They passed on Christian values which are still passed on today, hard work, integrity and faith will see us on our way.As | sing this song tonight I'm thankful | can say, that your hands will keep on working for they know no other way.We thank you for the years of toil and years of sacrifice, you're an honour to your children and an honour to your wife.So work the land, we understand your life has just begun, riding on your tractor underneath the sun.Richard Ian Kerr (1994-07-02) a bringing their four youngest children with them.Older children

hard to imagine what \u201cthe Plain,\u201d as it was then called, looked like when they got to their destination.Where Bromont now stands there was only unbroken forest with a small clearing and several log cabins.No other buildings, no fields under cultivation, no churches, no roads.Only rough trails suitable for ox sleds, people on horseback or on foot, led to the place.The Lawrences brought with them a small amount of money, and their household goods piled on a sled drawn by two oxen.Two cows and a pony completed the group.They had expected to find hay cut on the beaver meadow which lay west of where the school now stands.But the snow had come so early and lay so deep, that it had been impossible to get in.Consequently, the oxen and cattle died of starvation.The pony survived until spring by eating their dead flesh.Many hardships were suffered by the Lawrences and other pioneers like the Allens, the Catch- paws, the Lewises, the Bells, the Kinnesons, the Tuttles, the Mocks, and the Hayses.But little by little, things improved.About 1800, the first grist and saw mills were built on the Yamaska River by Samuel Lawrence and in 1804 Samuel\u2019s younger brother, Henry, who later founded Lawrence- ville, brought the first wheels into the settlement.Although the Lawrences were once numerous and important in the Bromont, Waterloo, South Stukely and Lawrenceville areas, their numbers have declined and at present, as far as is known, only Harvey Lawrence of Granby, John and Eileen Wilkinson of Bromont and John and Winona Matthews, also of Bro- mont, represent the family in the area.The rest of the family are scattered but they will come together for the reunion from Halifax, Nova Scotia, to Vancouver, British Columbia, Erskine, Alberta, Ottawa and Toronto, Ontario, Ormstown, Quebec, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Minnesota, Wisconsin and California.Although farming was practically the only occupation in the early days, present generations pursue careers in education, public health, translation, law, family counselling, truck driving, art, building and grounds maintenance, journalism, psychology, the military and the time-honoured farming.Hobbies range from sailing, to flying, slot car racing, genealogy, writing, and music.An invitation is extended to friends and acquaintances to drop in for a visit at St.John\u2019s Church, Shefford Street, Bro- mont, Quebec, at any time but preferably between 4:00 and 6:00 p.m.Saturday, July 30.Come and renew old friendships and get acquainted with new members of an original family meeting to celebrate this important 200th anniversary.Winona Lawrence Matthews Richmond, Que.Women\u2019s Institute meeting held at Grace Christian Home ASCOT \u2014 The June meeting was held at Grace Christian Home in Huntingville at 2 p.m.with 16 members and one visitor present.The president welcomed those present and asked the members to join in repeating the Opening Ode, The Flag, Mary Stewart Collect and the Oath of Citizenship.Marion read the poem \u201cJune\u201d from the Heritage Book.The roll call was answered.The secretary read the minutes of the May meeting which were approved as read.June 2nd was Senior Citizens\u2019 Day.Motto: Trouble with good advice, is that it usually interferes with your plans.Roll Call: give a safety tip - many members gave a good tip.Dear Jessie, You entered our lives

The treasurer Hilda Little read her report.It was decided to have a family picnic at Sims\u2019 Maple Grove, Sand Hill, July 30, bring picnic lunch, lawn chairs, etc.Love, Your niece to be Dawn Bordo Venise, Que.The president asked for the convenors\u2019 reports.Agriculture - Linda Hoy read what to do for bee stings.Take the stinger out, rub with a wet aspirin, or make a paste with meat tenderizer and apply.Try soda, sting kill, also household ammomia.Take an aspirin for pain.Be careful of sun exposure, especially from 10 o'clock till 3.For sunburn dip gauze in juice from lettuce boiled in water and apply, also gauze dipped in milk and apply.Canadian Industries - Elaine Hatcher read, \u201cSteel makers recover from hard times.\u201d Iva- nier announced that his family owned business Ivaco made a $3.1 million profit in the first quarter of 1994 compared to a loss of $8.8 million in the first 3 months of 1993.Car sales boost the industry.Citizenship - Absent.International Affairs - Isabel .\"Butler read about Peggy Knapp, \u2018area vice president of ACWW workshops and training program are desperately needed by women who seek practical support are already planned by ACWW as a direct response to their urgent appeals.The new co-action program will make a vital impact on conditions that currently exist in developing countries where deprivation is a way of life.Education and Cultural Activities - Absent.Safety - Margaret Hall read about a home care show at Centenary United Church, Stans- tead (1) one in ten people over the age of 65 who are hospitalized are there because of a fall.The average cost of extended hospitalization because of falls is $15,000.(2) an average of 417 seniors die each year in Quebec as the result of falls.In the Eastern Townships region there are 30 to 50 deaths each year, more women fall than men, mostly because of osteoporosis, a weakening of the bones.10% of falls occur on the stairs, 3% on icy surfaces, 44% over loose rugs or obstacles.Dr.Royer said 1 in 3 seniors report accidental falls the actual number if probably more.There are measures to prevent falls such as, eye sight, hearing, foot problems, nutrition and one\u2019s home environment.Use a cane with a tooth grip on the end when walking on ice, make sure stairs are well lit.Place non slip matting under rugs.Publicity - Wilmoth Rothney said she had sent a report of the May meeting to the County convenor, also to the Record.She also read an ad that was published in the Examiner in 1890.It was published every Friday p.m.by W.À.Morehouse.The prices were very different than now over 100 years later.14 lbs.of raisins were offered for $1.00 and 10 bars of soap for .75 etc.(This was in the Compton area I believe).Hilda read some humorous sayings that were printed on the back of a menu in a restaurant where she ate in the U.S.A.which caused some laughs.; Following the meeting, Thelma Hutchison (who had kecently returned home from spending the winter months with her daughter and family in Australia) played hymns and songs of yester year, while other members put the food on plates for a salad supper.The residents were truly appreciative.Margaret Hall read a very complete report of the convention she attended at Macdonald College.Members left for home wishing each other a good summer.Next meeting on September 1st at 2 p.m.Marbleton Marian Guillette News has been received of the death of Donald Hetherington in Brockville, Ont., on June 6.Donald was the second son of the late Alice and Wm.Hethering- ton, former residents here.Sympathy is extended to his wife Pat and brother Shannon and wife Margaret of Calgary, other relatives and friends.Recent visitors of Joe and Molly Mackay were Robert Mackay and Linda Bilodeau of Katevale.Be careful about advice given to young girls, Ann Dear Ann Landers: I read your response to \"Need Breathing Space in London, Ont,\u201c the 16-year-old girl who wanted out of a relationship with \"Bob.\" She felt he was smothering her.She was concerned, however, that if she dropped him, he would be devastated.She asked for your advice.You told her to let him down gently and not cut him off altogether because it would be too destructive.That answer was not one of your better ones.I am a public educator on issues of violence against women and am convinced that Bob shows signs of becoming extremely abusive.The first clue was his charm when she met him.Second is the fact that he came from an abusive home.Third was his possessiveness - smothering her and being a constant presence in her life.He also displays manipulative behavior - crying and saying she doesn't love him.These are all danger signs.Too often women are expected to be nurturers and fixers in a relationship.It is not the responsibility of a 16-year-old girl to fix Bob's emotional problems.He needs counseling.She should feel Ann Landers free to put an end to this sick relationship and date whomever she chooses.Please, Ann, expand on your advice before Bob becomes a , permanent fixture in her life.If he does, she will certainly regret it.- LINDA IN TORONTO DEAR LINDA: You are right.I'm afraid I was overly concerned with Bob's feelings when I should have been in the girl's comer.Thanks for cleaning up after me, Dear Ann Landers: I have some information for the millions of Americans who suffer from panic attacks.Symptoms may differ greatly.Some people have difficulty breathing and fear they may choke to death.Others have palpitations so strong that they are sure they are having a heart attack.Nervous symptoms may include dizziness, sweats, depression, fatigue, headaches, numbness, tremors and difficulty sleeping.Often there is a fear of being alone or going out in crowds.Some people are agoraphobic, afraid to leave the house.Your readers who see themselves in any of the above descriptions should have a complete physical examination to rule out health problems.If the doctor finds nothing wrong, chances are, the problem is caused by severe anxiety.This is where Recovery Inc.comes in.The Recovery method is a system for controlling temperamental behavior - and changing attitudes toward nervous symptoms and fears.The technique is simple but not easy.Nevertheless, it really works if the patient learns the method and applies it.Recovery Inc.does not supplant doctors.As a matter of fact, doctors and Recovery work well together.Please tell your readers to contact a chapter of Recovery Inc.in their area if they are experiencing any of the symptoms listed.It's in the phone book.Helplessness is not hopelessness.- SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS DEAR TEXAS: I've been a longtime advocate of Recovery Inc.It's one of the best self-help groups afloat, and it's worldwide.The national headquarters is in Chicago.If you can't find your local chapter, write to: Recovery Inc., 802 N.Dearborn, Chicago, Ill.60610.You'll be glad you did.| Gem of the Day: Contentment isn't getting what we want but being happy with what we have.

pugilist it is a means to an end: the end of his opponent'\u2019s resistance.(Why do so many people inflict physical pain on others, human or animal?) An Englishman might think of the humorous Punch magazine, sadly now deceased.One of its former editors, Malcolm Muggeridge, defended his tenure by writing: \"Good taste and humor are a contradiction in terms, like a chaste whore.\" But to a bridge player \"punch\" is forcing declarer to ruff and, hopefully, to lose trump control \u2014 as in today's deal.After a straightforward auction, West has to choose a lead.Some would misguidedly select the singleton heart.They would argue that partner might have the ace; but it is unlikely on this auction.Or that partner might have the club jack as an entry and either the dummy or declarer hold only a singleton club.But if that is the position, there are only three defensive tricks: the spade ace, the club jack and one heart ruff.! Much more sensible is to lead a top club.And to continue leadin dlubs.After ruffing the third round, South plays a spade.Suppose West ducks this trick to check South's spade length and wins the next round with his ace.He forces del- carer a second time with another club.This leaves both the dummy and South with one spade while West retains two.Whatever South does now, West must score a sec- and trump trick \u2014 and his fourth ih all \u2014 to defeat the contract.+ I suppose, if I weren't above that level of humor, I'd add that West had clubbed South to death.©1984, NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN.BRIDGE PHILLIP ALDER Thursday, July 21, 1994 Your Birthday Thursday, July 21, 1994 Periodically in the year ahead, you might be privy to some inside information that could be profitable for you.Even if the returns are minimal, they'll still be worthy of consideration.CANCER (June 21-July 22) Don't let it be said of your attitude today that if an idea didn't originate with you, it's bound to be of little consequence.Associates might not share your opinion.Trying to patch up a broken romance?The Astro- Graph Matchmaker can help you to understand what to do to make the relationship work.Mail $2 to Matchmaker, P.O.Box 4465, New York, N.Y.10163.LEO (July 23-Aug.22) Critical responsibilities should be given priority today, because you could lose your zest for tackling problems early and end up doing a half-baked job.VIRGO (Aug.23-Sept.22) There is a possibility you might yield to pressure today and do something to please another that opposes your best interests.If you take this route, neither person 1s likely to benefit.LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23) Today your problem 1s not likely to be one of having an enlarged ego.On the contrary, it could be a lack of self-assurance, which might be more defeating than its opposite.SCORPIO (Oct.24-Nov.22) Be on guard today if you participate in some type of friendly competition.because the person you may be pitted against could be someone who can't bear losing.SAGITTARIUS (Nov.23-Dec.21) Financial trends might be a series of ups and downs for you today.Your ability to generate income looks good.Your tendency to extravagance looks bad.CAPRICORN (Dec.22-Jan.19) An endeavor in which you're presently involved has potential, provided the right people run it.You fill the bill, but two associates might not.AQUARIUS (Jan.20-Feb.19) Don't get involved in a project today that can produce only nominal rewards regardless of how smart you are and how willing you are to work.PISCES (Feb.20-March 20) If there Is something about which you are enthusiastic and hopeful, don't waste your time today trying to sell a friend on it who always looks at life through a negative lens.ARIES (March 21-April 19) In order to be successful today, you must be flexible and open-minded.One particular procedure might not work, but a combination may.TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Persons who are in accord with your ideas and opinions will be treated with consideration and respect today.Those who disagree with you, however, might not receive this treatment.GEMINI (May 21-June 20) In your commercial affairs today, conditions aren't likely to be optimum.However, they could still be advantageous, because the benefits will outweigh the negatives.©1994 NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN.Salad supper a decided success STANSTEAD (IH) \u2014 Christ Church Super Salad supper and sale was held the afternoon of July 6 on a hot and humid day in the Parish Hall.Due to the uncertain weather forecast the sale tables were in the lower hall where an assortment of beautiful hand crafts were sold by Nellie Kezar and her daughter Barbara Hospes.At another long table an excellent display of home-made foods found quick sales with Jackie Cass and Ivy Hatch as salesladies.Thelma Middleton was in charge of selling the tickets for the supper, and a number of the Crossword ACW - Guild members were ably assisted by ladies from the congregation to serve the supper.Edward and June Hyatt dished up the ice cream and topped it with strawberries.Barbara Howard sold tickets on hand crafted items.Joan Peir- ce and Beatrice Grady held the lucky winning numbers.The event was a decided success both financially and socially.People attended from Sherbrooke, Lennoxville, Montreal, Edmonton, Alta., Magog, Coati- cook, the Boundary Communities.The ACW - Guild are deeply appreciative for all contributions in so many ways.envoT Seon ACROSS 1 [2 1 Joint type 12 [13 6 Fairy tale opener mmm 15 16 10 Walk with a 18 plodding gait 14 Sharp 19 21 |22 23 15 Son of Lot 16 \u2018Walking \u2014\" 17 Garner 18 Stinger 20 Panetta's agcy.21 Rotations 25 26 27 The RECORD\u2014Thursday, July 21, 1994\u20149 ALL MY LIFE I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THAT \u201cPIE IN THE SKY \u201d © 1994 United Feature Syndicate, inc I THINK SOMEBODY AN' JUST WHO.S\u2014Z Y'HEAR THAT, NEEDS TO GIVE YOU YOU GOT IN MIND T'DO IT, PAL?BRO?ALLEY, YEAH, I HEARD!

divine intervention for Padres By Terry Scott MONTREAL (CP) \u2014 The Montreal Expos made some history in beating the San Diego Padres 5-2 on Wednesday night.Nothing like the first moon walk, which had come exactly 25 years earlier, but one for the club record book nevertheless.The victory, witnessed by an announced crowd of 20,572 at Olympic Stadium, gave the Expos a perfect 12-0 record against San Diego, the first time Montreal has ever swept a season series from an opponent.It also moved the Expos back into a tie with the Atlanta Braves for first-place in the National League East Division.Previously, the Expos\u2019 best winning percentage against an NL rival was a 9-1 mark against the Braves in 1979.\u201cThat\u2019s no little feat,\u201d said Butch Henry, the Expos starting pitcher and winner.\u201cI was on the other end of the spectrum (when Colorado went 0-13 against Atlanta last year).\u201cI don\u2019t think a lot of people give San Diego its due credit.They're a big-league ball club in my book.\u201d Padres right-fielder Tony Gwynn said he was glad to be finished with Montreal.\u201cThey\u2019ve got a chance to win the whole thing,\u201d he said.\u201cIf they do, that 12-0 won\u2019t look too bad, but 1-11 would have looked better than 0-12.\u201d Expos manager Felipe Alou, whose club was swept four straight by San Francisco before the Padres\u2019 visit, had called a team meeting, reminding his players to maintain their intensity.\u201cIt wasn\u2019t about the Padres,\u201d he said.\u201cI told everyone that we can\u2019t take anybody in this game lightly.\u201d Tied at 2-2 entering the fifth, the Expos moved ahead for good, helped by some inexplicable wildness by San Diego starter Andy Benes (6-11).He had easily retired the first two batters but walked his pitching rival Henry and Marquis Grissom on eight pitches.Cliff Floyd's single loaded the bases and Moises Alou produced the go-ahead run with an infield single.Mariners look for temporary home No vacancy at B.C.stadium By Ron Sudlow VANCOUVER (CP) \u2014 It\u2019s unlikely fans will see Ken Grif- fey Jr.pursue baseball's home run record in Vancouver.While officials of B.C.Place stadium say they're hopeful they could attract one or two home series involving the Seattle Mariners, previous commitments make that doubtful.The Mariners began looking for a new home field after insulation tiles plummeted 50 metres from the Kingdome roof into the stands behind home plate as players were beginning pregame stretching on Tuesday.The incident forced cancellation of the remaining two games of a series against the Baltimore Orioles.After Monday night, Griffey was one game off Roger Maris\u2019s 61-homer pace.\u201cWe're having on-going discussions with the Mariners,\u201d spokesman Walt Judis of B.C.Pavilion Corp., the provincial government owners of B.C.Place Stadium, said Wednesday in an interview.\u201cWe're hoping that at some point during the summer, if need be, we can accommodate them.\u201cOur trouble is that we have (CFL) football (tonight).To convert to a baseball configuration would take us about three to four days.\u201d The Boston Red Sox were scheduled for four games before the Mariners went on the road but that series was shifted to Fenway Park.One game will be played Friday night followed by a Saturday doubleheader and a Sunday game.The Mariners are scheduled to play in the Eastern time zone after Boston, originally starting a road trip with three games in Detroit against the Tigers.\u201cWe're looking to see which dates we could accommodate them throughout the summer but this is a busy time for us,\u201d Judts said.Football and trade shows comprise most of the stadium\u2019s summer lineup, Judis said, but it would be difficult dovetailing them with the Mariners\u2019 home dates.\u201cWe would hope that we would have a couple of series but that would probably be the most.\u201d No one was hurt in Tuesday\u2019s Kingdome incident, but no games will be played in the roofed, concrete stadium until the ceiling\u2019s safety can be guaranteed, officials said.It was the first time any sporting event was called off in the dome\u2019s 18-year history.The lead expanded to 5-2 in the sixth, when Darrin Fletcher opened with a single and Wil Cordero followed by powering Benes\u2019s first pitch beyond the left-field fence for his 14th home run.The hit tied Hubie Brooks for the team record for homers in a season by a shortstop.\u201cIt feels good to know,\u201d said Cordero.\u201cBut I'm just thinking about how the team is playing.That's what really matters.\u201d Grissom had led off the fourth inning with his seventh homer and first since June 13.Three straight singles followed the homer, including Larry Walker's RBI single that gave Montreal a 2-1 margin.Advances to Montebello quarters Detroit cuts Probert DETROIT (AP) \u2014 The Detroit Red Wings waived left-winger Bob Probert Wednesday, saying it was fed up with his off-ice problems and lack of commitment.\u201cWe were not able to get Bob Probert to make the off-ice commitment that you need to be an NHL player,\u201d said Jimmy Devel- lano, the Red Wings senior vice- president.\u201cYou have to work out Probert.Troubled winger waived.during the off-season, you have to live clean and you have to have commitment.\u201cWe spent all too much time the past 10 years dealing with his problems and wanted to start fresh.\u201d Devellano said Probert and his agent, Patrick Ducharme, also were interested in a fresh start.Ducharme did not return telephone messages left at his office Wednesday by the Associated Press.! Probert was a restricted free: agent following last season, meaning the Red Wings had the - right to match any offer made by another team or to receive compensation from the team that signed him.Wednesday's move means the Red Wings will receive no compensation.Probert had been one of the most popular Red Wings during ': his career because of his reputation as the league\u2019s best fighter.Laureau plays champ next MONTEBELLO, Que.(CP) \u2014 Sébastien Lareau, the Canadian tennis champion, defeated wil- dcard Jocelyn Robichaud of Joliette, Que., 6-0, 7-6 (7-4) on Wednesday at the Bacardi- Martini Challenger tournament.Lareau, of Boucherville, Que., meets second seed Cristiano -Caratti of Italy, the defending champion.Caratti, beat Kevin Ullyett of South Africa 6-2, 6-3.In other matches, Jose Luis Noriega of Peru knocked off No.1 Doug Flach of the United States 6-1, 3-6, 6-3.Then unseeded Tommy Ho defeated Japan's Shuzo Matsuoka, the fourth seed, 6-4, 6-3.Patrick Baur of Germany also beat fifth-seed Canadians badly outnumbered in their By Reg Curren Michaél\u2018 Soles is a Canadian, and that makes him a minority in the Canadian Football League.Soles, a fullback with the Edmonton Eskimos, says proposed rule changes after this season will not only ensure Canucks remain a minority in the league, it will leave them scrambling for jobs.\u201cIts going tô be difficnlt for\u201d Canadians to crack the lineup,\u201d says the six-year CFL veteran from Point Claire, Que.\u201cWe\u2019ve been protected over the past few years.\u201d The balance between Canadian and American players in the league has shifted dramatically in 1994 with the addition of three more teams in the United States.ton, Ottawa.on its 37-man roster.positions).American-Canadian ratio The Canadian Football League is less Canadian than ever as it embraces expansion into the United States.Some facts: ROSTER RULE: Canadian teams \u2014 14 imports, 20 non- imports and three quarterbacks.(No quota rule on quarterbacks.)

\u2018vetoed\u2019 out of Nords\u2019 coaching job MONTREAL (CP) \u2014 Quebec Nordiques president and part owner Marcel Aubut vetoed Michel Bergeron\u2019s candidacy for the head coaching job with the National Hockey League club, a newspaper said Wednesday.Pierre Lacroix, the Nordiques general manager, considered Bergeron his first choice to return as head coach before Aubut intervened, La Presse reported, quoting unnamed sources.Lacroix, a former agent whose clients included Bergeron, then hired former minor league coach Marc Crawford for the job on July 6.\u201c The report said the events called into question Lacroix\u2019s independence from Aubut, who is known for meddling in his managers\u2019 hockey decisions.Lacroix was hired on May 24 to replace Pierre Page, who was fired as coach and general manager when the team failed to make the playoffs for the sixth \u2018Sports briefs time in seven seasons.A Nordiques spokesman said the team stands by what was said when Crawford was hired.At that news conference, Lacroix made only vague references to the team needing \u201cnew blood\u201d in its coaching staff.Bergeron coached the Nordiques in some of their best seasons, from 1981 to 1987, and returned for a second stint in 1989-90, when the team finished last overall with only 31 points in 80 games.The report said Aubut was still upset with Bergeron for failing to deliver on a promise when he was hired back after two seasons with the New York Rangers.Gilmour has minor surgery to his feet TORONTO (CP) \u2014 Doug Gil- mour has had minor surgery to have calcium shaved down on the insteps of his two feet, the star centre for the Toronto Maple Leafs confirmed Tuesday.THE four US.teams are not required to have Canadians on their rosters.None do.The eight Canadian-based teams must have 20 Canadians and 14 imports, not counting quarterbacks, which are not covered by the quota rules.The three quarterbacks on each team are typically Americans.The maple leaf in the CFL has wilted.The future of the Canadian- American player ratios will be determined during negotiations for the next contract between the league and its players\u2019 association.The current agreement expires next June.Many expect the protected positions for Canadians to fall to 10 from 20 in a new contract.CFL commissioner Larry Smith was born in Montreal and played nine seasons in the league.He says a Canadian presence will be maintained but change is inevitable.\u201cIt\u2019s going to be a process where everyone has got to understand where the business is going and how we continue to make sure Canadians are playing in our league,\u201d says Smith.\u201cBut we realize we're in a \u201cThe feet hurt and they look pretty big right now, but I'm going to try putting some

the pressure of wearing the boot so often,\u201d said Clarfield.\u201cIt's not an uncommon thing, but in this case, they had really begun to bug Doug.\u201d Gilmour, 31, said a badly sprained ankle that badgered the Toronto sniper during the playoffs had healed.\u201cBut this is something I've wanted to have done for a long time,\u201d he said.\u201cI decided to have both insteps shaved to make my skates fit more confortably.more competitive situation.This is not an easy issue because you're going through history.\u201d Historically, the rule reserving roster spots for Canadians has given home-growns the chance to close an acknowledged skills gap with U.S.-born players.Americans typically receive better coaching.They come from a much larger player pool.When many turn to the CFL, they have an advantage over their Canadian counterparts in their first seasons.Most Canadians serve as backups and special-teams players early in their careers.It .sometimes takes three years or more before they graduate to starting positions.Soles says if the Canadian- American player ratio is cut significantly or altogether, Canadians will be relegated almost entirely to special teams and backup positions.Canadian clubs argue the ratio rule puts them at a competitive disadvantage.They say they're forced to select players based on their birth certificates, not their abilities.Dan Ferrone, a

Miguel Indurain stayed well in command overall, Rodriguez beat Piotr Urgru- mov of Latvia in a final sprint about a minute ahead of Marco Pantani of Italy, who took over third place in the overall standings.Indurain finished less than two minutes behind Pantani in fifth.The stage had three climbs to peaks over 1,900 metres including the trip to Val Thorens, the highest ski resort in Europe, almost 2,300 metres.It was on the way to Val Tho- rens where most of the action took place.Mark Kaplan of the United States 6-1, 3-6, 6-3.Leander Paes of India advan- \u201c Becker backs out ced to

tennis championship : with an injured right leg, Tennis Canada announced Wednesday.\u2018 The popular Becker, who is ranked ninth in the world, won the Player's in 1986 and advanced to the semifinals this year at Wim- - bledon.He would have been the fifth seed at the Player's behind Pete Sampras of the United States, Sergi Bruguera of Spain, and Todd Martin and Michael Chang of the United States.\u201cIt's unfortunate, because everybody likes to see him play,\u201d said John Beddington, the tournament chairman.\u201cBut while it\u2019s sad that Boris won't be here, we do have a really excellent entry of top players.\u201d Becker was also scheduled to play in the annual AIDS fundraiser called An Evening of Tribute to Arthur Ashe on Saturday.Beddington said he will be replaced by Chang.own football league says the demand for change has nothing to do with competitiveness \u2014 it all boils down to bucks.By the time Canadians are starters, they're near the top salary level for that position because they've been understudies for a number of seasons.But a first-year American who's starting compares himself with other starters.\u201cBecause those Canadian starters have been there a long time,\u201d Ferrone says, \u201che (the American player) can demand $50,000,\u201d the average salary for a player in the starting lineup.\u201cIf you eliminate the quota and don\u2019t need the Canadian, everybody is going to get the minimum (salary),\u201d about $26,000.He says even Canadian players would want the quota system eliminated if American- based teams began dominating the CFL.Rod Connop, a 13-year Eskimos veteran from Burnaby, B.C., says players should assume the quota will be eliminated.\u201cI don\u2019t believe Canadians need to be legislated into their positions .We're good enough to play.\u201d He says management will take advantage of the huge pool of players in the United States.Rodriguez, Bjarne Riis of Denmark and Ugrumov had built up a lead of more than five minutes at the base of the mountain with 35 kilometres to go in the 143-ki- lometre stage.Riis was dropped and Rodriquez and Urgrumov were left to battle for the stage win.Behind them was a group that included Indurain and the rest of the overall leaders.Various members of different teams took turns in the lead in an attempt to wear Indurain out.However no matter who picked up the pace, Indurain stayed right behind with no apparent effort.Pantani, with an eye on moving up in the standings, took off and Indurain let him go since the Italian trailed by more than nine minutes in the overall standings.Richard Virenque of France stayed in second place, 7:21 behind Indurain.Pantani moved into third, 8:11 behind, and Luc Leblanc dropped to fourth.With a greater supply of players, .salaries have only one way to go \u2014 down.Despite all the questions, .kicker Lui Passaglia of the B.C.Lions says expansion is a great adventure for most players.But \u2018 its an adventure that includes .some uncertainty.\u201cI see a good future for the league .We're headed in the right direction.; \u201cHopefully, for Canadian football players and Canadian colleges across the country,
