spending, $65 million for referendum By Don Macdonald QUEBEC (CP) \u2014 The Quebec government shied away Thursday from deep spending cuts favored by other Canadian governments and set aside almost $65 million for this year\u2019s sovereignty referendum.The Parti Québécois government will trim health, education and welfare outlays in 1995-1996 to achieve zero growth in program spending, Treasury Board President Pauline Marois announced.In presenting next year\u2019s spending estimates, Marois said program spending will be frozen at $36 billion, forcing departmental cutbacks of about $1.3 billion and the elimination of 2,000 civil service jobs through attrition.Marois acknowledged the government has chosen not to go as far as Ottawa and other provinces in slashing spending, but insisted that has nothing to do with the looming vote on independence.\u201cThere will be no goodies because of the referendum,\u201d Marois told a news conference.\u201c- We think this effort is sufficient given our (election) promises and the expectations of the public.\u201d Although Quebec is laboring under a $5.7-billion deficit, Marois said efforts to control spending this year and next should pursuade bond rating agencies not to cut the province\u2019s credit rating.Quebecers will find out the projected 1995-1996 deficit and whether they must pay any new taxes when the provincial budget is brought down next month.Unlike other Canadian governments, Quebec releases its spending estimates before the budget.\u2018Lack of direction\u2019 \u2014 QFL By Jack Branswell BEAUPORT (CP) \u2014 Quebec\u2019s latest round of sovereignty commissions may not be providing the kind of kick-start to a moribund independence movement the Parti Québécois had been hoping for.Long-time allies of the PQ demanded Thursday that the government stop dithering and get on with its referendum.Meanwhile the government had to fend off accusations that it was cooking the books on studies aimed at showing the high cost of federalism.Bernard Landry, deputy premier, defended the government's decision to spend Sovereignty plan gets a rough ride $500,000 to hire American lobby firms to sell sovereignty in the United States.And the PQ\u2019s spending estimates showed $65 million has been put aside for the referendum while the government will trim spending in health, education and welfare programs.Only two out of eight groups appearing before the sovereignty commission came out in favor of independence.The others declined to take an official position.Support for independence has been stalled well below 50 per cent for several months.See HEARING Page 2 Premier Jacques Parizeau said a freeze in program spending hasn\u2019t been seen in Quebec for a quarter of a century and he promised to keep his campaign promise of balancing the province\u2019s operating budget by 1997-1998.The government has budgeted $56 million for the nuts and bolts of holding a referendum, including $21 million for the creation of a permanent, computerized voters list.Another $7.6 million has been set aside to pay for 40 studies on sovereignty aimed at selling Quebecers on the idea.The studies will evaluate overlap between provincial and federal programs and reassure Quebecers about the economic consequences of independence.Marois also said the government has budgeted an additional $1 million this year on top of the $5.5 million that\u2019s already been spent on regional sovereignty commissions that held hearings across the province in February and early March.The PQ government's decision to hold the line on spending in 1995-1996 means bureaucrats will have to scramble to make up major shortfalls in their budgets.The health sector is facing cutbacks of almost $550 million, including $340 million in hospitals, old-age homes and other health facilities.The Education Department has to come up with an extra $200 million while the welfare budget is being cut by $95 million.On the other hand, the government will inject $18 million into daycare in 1995-1996.Overall spending is projected to increase by one per cent due to a $440 million increase in debt servicing charges.\u201cWe think the people of Quebec want the level of services they now have in education and health care,\u201d Marois said.Quebecers will find out the projected deficit and whether they must pay any new taxes in next month\u2019s budget.| | Enoug h, alre ady: John Perrucchio of the Canadian Shooting Federation warned gun owners Thursday their freedom is at risk.For the full story, please

Medal comes 30 years later Canadian hero of Yarmouth Castle recognized By Karen Testa FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.(AP) \u2014 Layers of molten paint oozed from the walls on to the decks of the Yarmouth Castle as flames consumed the sinking cruise ship.Hundreds of passengers \u2014 frightened, disoriented and clad mostly in pajamas and robes \u2014 were roused from their cabins into the dense, black smoke.They were ordered to abandon ship.Life jackets and rescue boats were scarce.But Terry Wise, a young seaman from Victoria, B.C., wrapped his head in a wet towel and helped dozens cf passengers, mostly elderly, flee the listing vessel.His heroics earned him one of the U.S.Coast Guard's top civilian honors Thursday \u2014 nearly three decades after the Nov.13, 1965, ship fire that killed 85

Public Service Award at Station Fort Lauderdale.\u201cThe whole time there were people screaming.Some of them had their clothes burned right off them.\u201d Wise was the last one off the ship, sliding down a rope after surrendering his life jacket to an elderly woman.Just three days earlier, Wise, who was 23 then, had accepted the job as a third purser.He had never worked on a ship or been trained in rescue missions.\u201c[ was so proud of my new white uniform,\u201d Wise said.\u201cI only got to wear it two days.\u201d The fire broke out around 1:30 a.m.in an unoccupied room of the vessel.It sunk hours later in the Northwest Providence Channel.The incident prompted U.S.legislators to pass federal fire safety standards for ships in 1968.Wise remained in the cruise business for more than 25 years, until he was forced for medical reasons to retire.Other than a few magazine and newspaper articles just after the disaster, and an appearance on television\u2019s To Tell The Truth, Wises life-saving actions went largely unrecognized.For years, his daughter Leila and wife Solange wrote to government agencies in the United States and Canada seeking some In April 1994, Leila, 21, a

crowd cheered for President Nelson Mandela but shouted a few boos at the Queen at a memorial on Thursday for black South Africans who died in the First World War.The stop at Avalon Cemetery in Soweto, southwest of Johannesburg, came on the fourth day of the Queen\u2019s six-day tour of South Africa.About 500 people cheered wildly when Mandela arrived.The crowd also waved to welcome the Queen, but some booing broke out when she got out of her Land Rover without waving back.Mandela and the Queen unveiled a plaque on the stone-and- brick monument honoring members of the South African Native Labor Contingent, an unarmed unit that performed manual labor and served officers.More than 600 members of the unit died when a ship transporting them sank in the icy English Channel in 1917.The men were among 802 black servicemen on their way to France to serve in a First World War labor brigade.In the early hours of Feb.21, 1917, their ship, the 4,370-tonne Mendi sank after it was hit by the

in Boca Raton to tell him about the award.His daughter\u2019s letter had been mailed without his knowledge.\u201cI don\u2019t know whether to spank her or hug her,\u201d Wise joked, fidgeting with his hands and taking his sunglasses on and off.He said his new recognition was more nerve-racking than the rescue itself.\u201cI feel like I'm in the dentist's office,\u201d he said.shipwreck victims Of the men aboard, 607 biack servicemen, two white officers and seven white non- commissioned officers and 31 crewmen died in the icy, fog- shrouded waters.Heavy rain lifted for the ceremony and began again minutes after the queen left.The names of the 607 black servicemen were engraved in black granite, replicas of the panels of the memorial in the English town of Southampton, not far from where the ship sank.Legend has it that as the Men- di sank, the black servicemen took off their boots to sing and stamp a death dance bare-footed on the sloping deck as the black waters rushed up.War veterans at Thursday\u2019s ceremony said they wanted the Queen to give them money or other compensation beyond the six English pounds and a bicycle they received for their efforts long ago.\u201cWe are hoping that the Queen will do something for us because we never got any payment from our service,\u201d said Germany Mlkwena, 81.The Queen later told a luncheon hosted by regional Premier Tokyo

Minister Jean Rochon confirmed Thursday government.But Moore could not say why the Australian government should act on behalf of the Canadian woman, who has started working as a chambermaid in a hotel to make ends meet.Moore says the man\u2019s post has been cut as a result of financial restraints and he will be ordered back at the end of the school term in April.\u201cIn this case, the department is very sensitive to the tragedy facing the family and has been working diligently in trying to facilitate their return to Canada to allow them to resolve their personal problems here.\u201d The department policy is to ask couples to deal with these Hecord problems in front of Canadian courts, he said.But Moore could not explain why the department didn\u2019t simply order the man back when the problem first arose about a year ago.\u201cThe question here isn\u2019t one of breaking the host country\u2019s laws but trying to resolve what is a personal private family dispute.\u201d Moore said the department would not leave the woman stranded there when her husband returns to Canada.\u201cWe're encouraging their return as a family to Canada.The implication of that is that she'll be

a collective plan and not just an accounting plan.\u201d As for the natives, David said Quebec can\u2019t claim the right to self-determination and then deny it to others.The PQ\u2019s position is that natives couldn't separate from Quebec, should the province become independent.The natives have generally supported federalism.BY GARRY TRUDEAU Back copies of The Record are available at the

water panel By Rita Legault MAGOG \u2014 Local municipalities and environmental groups in Quebec and Vermont are hoping the addition of political clout will speed improvements in the water-quality of Lake Raoul Peticlerc: Can\u2019t afford to remain passive, Memphremagog.Parti Québécois regional delegate Claude Boucher and an appointee of the governor of Vermont have been added to the Quebec-Vermont study group which seeks solutions to pollu- tion on the international lake.The Quebec-Vermont study group released a report in 1993 with a list of recommendations on how to ensure the future quality of the lake.But there has been little action on the environmental wish list.Boucher said Thursday his participation has the blessing of Environment Minister Jacques Brassard, who has promised to co-operate in any way he can.That's important because a number of issues, incuding changes to dumping laws, will be needed to meet the recommendations in the report, drawn up by environmental groups and officials from muncipalities surrounding the lake on both sides of the border.PESTICIDES AND MANURE Other recommendations which will need the support of the Quebec government include adopting new regulations on the use of pesticides on golf courses, and a law governing the use and \u2018If there\u2019s another one, it should be here\u2019 Magog-Ortord: Casino backers start try By Rita Legault MAGOG \u2014 The Quebec government should set up a casino in the Magog-Orford area before it goes ahead with any plans to expand existing gaming houses in Montreal and Charlevoix, says - the local Chamber of Commerce.A few days ago Loto-Québec president Michel Créte said the government should consider a second enlargement of the Montreal casino and an addition to the one is Charlevoix, before expanding into other regions.Crête\u2019s comments came a week after other government officials said the casino market was saturated and the province would not consider any more gambling outlets.Crête was responding to pressure from groups in several areas ofthe province which are demanding government-run casinos.So far Rouyn-Noranda, Lac Etche- min, Quebec City, Chicoutimi and Ste Adèle are lining up for their own casinos.But according to Magog casino promoter Réjean Beaudoin, the Mount-Orford region has been fighting for 25 years to get a casino and its number should be up for the next one.CASINO PIONEER Beaudoin, among those behind the first suggestion to allow legal gambling in Quebec in 1968 , Said the region has been a pioneer and deserves to be recognized.Beaudoin also worked with former Sherbrooke MP Raynald Fréchette in the early 1980s to encourage Quebec to set up casinos, and was active again in 1990 when Liberal tourism minister André Vallerand revived the idea.In 1993 Beaudoin was leader of a coalition of tourism industry spokesmen which finally convinced the Bourassa government to go-ahead with casinos.But they went to Montreal, Charlevoix and Hull.\u201cWe've been active for a quarter century on the casino dossier and this is the region of the pro: _ \u2018The time for politeness has passed\u2019 storage of manure on farms around the lake.\u201cThis is not your usual committee,\u201d Boucher said at a news conference Thursday.\u201cThis is one where the political deciders are present and where we have the intention of acting, and acting quickly.\u201d On Thursday, Quebec members of the group charged with following up the report met with their Vermont counterparts to set priorities among the recommendations which affect both sides of the border.Study group president Raoul Peticlerc said that after two meetings of the committee, he\u2019s convinced members will be able to meet the important challenges they face.\u201cThe preservation of the quality of the environment of Lake Memphremagog is essential to the quality of life in our region,\u201d said Petitclerc, an Austin town councillor.\u201cWe can\u2019t afford to remain pas- vince which as had the greatest positive influence in advancing the cause,\u201d Beaudoin said.\u201cIf there\u2019s another one, it should be here.\u201d But the region\u2019s hard work in promoting a casino in Magog- Orford is not the only reason why the government should choose the area for further expansion, say Beaudoin and Magog-Orford Chamber of Commerce president Jean-Guy Gingras.TOURIST ATTRACTION Beaudoin said the government\u2019s main motive for starting casinos in Quebec was to attract tourists to the province from the U.S.and neighboring

SHERBROOKE \u2014 John Perocchio says the problem gun owners are currently facing is with a government that wants to take their rights away.Director of public affairs for the Shooting Federation of Canada, Perocchio was spea- \u2018king to some 65 gun owners at an information meeting Thur- Gilbert Gourd.Concerned gun owners should speak to their MPs, control law proposed by Justice Minister Allan Rock which would require owners to register firearms or face criminal penalties.He and many in attendance said the issue is not guns, but a right to own private property.Perocchio said since the government is the problem, the solution is political.Concerned citizens should \u201c- Meet with your member of Parliament, explain the bill to them, explain that you elected him to protect your rights and give him two options \u2014 kill the bill or go on unemployment,\u201d he said.\u201cThe time for politeness has passed,\u201d he told the anxious group.Perocchio said his organization is willing to work with goverment on crime control.\u201c- Crime control, not gun control.\u201d \u201cThe mistake the government made is they tried to equate crime control with gun control.The government is lying.If they were serious about crime control, get rid of plea bargaining, leave honest citizens alone.\u201d Richard Goodhue, Lennoxvil- le pumpkin grower, competitive shooter and hunter, said the process of acquiring a gun is difficult enough.\u201cYou need to make an application to the police, then you need a permit to purchase a revolver, then you need to be a member of a club and youneed a permit to transport the pistol to the club and back.Plus the gun has to be locked and kept separately from the ammunition.So what are they talking about?\u201d Goodhue offered this solution.\u201cWhy not register me, check me out with the RCMP and turn me loose and then every time I buy or sell guns, I have to have that registration card.\u201d Perocchio said he has lived with guns since he was a kid.He said Bill C-68 is vaguely worded and the government hasn\u2019t even figured out its details yet, such as how much it would cost a gunowner to register his firearm.\u201cYou can\u2019t even get a copy of the bill unless you pay $15,\u201d Perocchio said.\u201cNow wait a minute, if this bill is my savior, why are they asking me to pay $15 to read it \u2014 unless they have something to hide?\u201d Many in attendance argued the media don\u2019t help.One man said the media generally present a one-sided view of the gun issue, playing up any story where a gun was used for a purpose other than it was meant for.Perocchio said the press is easing up a bit, but it\u2019s been a long road.\u201cPrint the truth, dig it up.We have nothing to hide.\u201d His truth is that according to Statistics Canada, this country does not have an increase in crime, and that there are seven million gun owners and 21 million guns here, not six million guns like Justice Minister Allan Rock says.\u201cWhy is he saying six million?Because when he falls flat on his face, he can say we've collected so much out of six.If he said it was out of 21, theyll get him on that.\u201d His colleague at the Shooting Federation, Lawrence Belec, said criminals are giving legitimate gun owners a bad name.\u201cI can eliminate 70 per cent of crime \u2014 put repeat offenders in prison because 70 per cent of crime is comitted by repeat offenders.Why are they on the street?Every time some moron pulls a gun, I take the consequences.They are legislating gun owners in the country because they could be potential criminals, it\u2019s ridiculous.\u201d Belec stressed they are not being paranoid because it is not a gun issue.\u201cIt\u2019s the right to own private property and do you have that right.In this country that right is not entrenched in the constitution.\u201d He said the government is showing a lack of respect for its citizens.\u201cYou have to prove to some petty bureaucrat why you should own something.If you bought it, paid tax on it and never used it for any reason vez fg pa Richard Goodhue.other than it was intended, why Acquiring a gun is difficult

4\u2014The RECORD\u2014Friday, March 24, 1995 the The Voice of the Eastern Townships since 1897 A moral duty to offer sanctuary Aninane comparison made by a Reform MP \u2014 that the torture and imprisonment of women for not wearing a veil is no different than dress codes requiring men to wear jackets \u2014 is a leap of logic so great it goes way beyond the realm of the absurd.Reformer Philip Mayfield made the comments Thursday before a Commons committee studying gender-persecution guidelines adopted by Canada\u2019s refugee board.And comparing such restrictions in other countries to Canada not allowing women to bare their breasts in public just heaps more ridicule on his bigoted assertions.Mayfield, whose party is steadfastly against immigration, argued that women who are tortured and face persecution for veil infractions, or who are fleeing to avoid genital mutilation, should not be given asylum in this country.Men who won't wear a jacket or tie in Western Civilization face little more persecution than not being able to chow down at a classy restaurant.Women who refuse to wear veils in some countries face a far worse fate than not getting to eat in one of the finer dining establishments.They face torture, imprisonment and even death.Equating the two situations is like saying that female genital mutilation is the same as male circumcision \u2014 another giant leap of logic Mayfield and other racist Olympians can make without much effort.~ Women whose lives are endangered because of their gender are no different than refugees who are tortured and killed for their political beliefs.The difference is that they are living in countries where women are not empowered to make their decisions about their own lives.Under international law countries cannot use culture as an excuse to deprive women of their human rights.Yet every day in many countries in this world women are refused basic rights such as freedom of speech, assocation, and religion.And in some, they are tortured and killed for going against the cultural beliefs imposed upon them by patriarchal societies which treat women as chattel.Canada has always prided itself in being a compassionate country which defends the human rights not only of Canadians but of those in less fortunate countries.As such it has a moral duty to offer sanctuary to those whose lives are endangered for political beliefs \u2014 whether they be women or men.Many Reformers and other intolerant people would like to change that and turn Canada into an intolerant country in the image of bigoted racists like Mayfield.Let's hope others on the Commons committee are a little more open-minded than Mayfield.I believe most Canadians are.RITA LEGAULT Letters to the Editor Government ready to sell out Sir: The recent disclosure of the budget for 1995 by the federal government has given the citizens of Canada every reason to believe that they have elected to office a group of politicians who, rather than represent their electorate, are more concerned with satisfying the wishes and desires of the financial and corporate interests both internal and external to Canadian borders.The government has lost its desire to govern, ignored its mandate, discarded the promises contained in its little \u201cred book\u201d, and it has prepared the way for the sell-out and dismantling of the nation.We are now witnessing the devolution of power to the provinces and the federal withdrawal from providing equal services across Canada, thus abandoning the idea of a united community for all.The erosion of public services and the sale of public utilities are not within the mandate of the present government.These rights have not been sanctioned by the electorate.This privatization of public services and utilities will hasten the balkanization of Canada and render her easy prey to the tol) BEF YOUR JO im Dear SirMadam: I would respectfully request your consideration to include this letter

and when the diamond finesse lost a moment later, South was one down.| The second declarer realized that if ! West had switched from the doubleton spade king, there was no benefit in taking the finesse.Taking the slight risk that West had all three trumps, South put up dummy's ace.When the king tumbled down \u2014 and after East had slid his chair back a few feet \u2014 South drew the last trump and tried the diamond finesse for an overtrick.However, suppose East had followed with a low spade.South would have un- ; blocked his heart honors, played a diamond to dummy\u2019s king and cashed the: heart queen, discarding a diamond from | hand.Finally, South would have exited with a trump.If West had to win the trick, he would have been endplayed, forced either to lead into declarer\u2019s diamond tenace or to concede a ruff-and- discard.; Phillip Alder\u2019s new book, \u201cGet : Smarter at Bridge,\u201d is available, autographed upon request, for $14.95 from P.O.Box 169, Roslyn Hts., NY 11577-0169.© 1995 by NEA Inc.19)\" BRIDGE Compton Mrs.Lloyd Hyatt 835-5484 Mr.and Mrs.Chilston Lowry, Eaton Comer and Mr.and Mrs.Lloyd Hyatt were supper guests of Mr.and Mrs.Robert McVety to belp celebrate Christopher McVety\u2019s birthday on Friday.Mr.and Mrs.Ronald Grenier spent a couple of weeks on a holiday in Florida.They returned on Saturday.Mr.and Mrs,.Lloyd Hyatt have returned home after spending a few days guests of Mrs.Bernice Johnson in Hamilton, Ont.On Saturday, Mrs.B.Johnson and Gordon Shaughnessy were guests of Mr.and Mrs.Carl Shaughnessy in Kitchener, Ont.On Sunday they were dinner guests of Mr.and Mrs.Colin Smith.Mr.and Mrs.Ed.Burke, West- field, Vt., spent a day with Mr.and Mrs.Lloyd Hyatt.Mrs.Elizabeth Larrabee and daughter Miss Nicki Larrabee, Or- angeville, Ont.and Mrs.Rosemary Morrison, Hamilton, Ont, were guests of Mr.and Mrs.Lloyd Hy- att.They were dinner guests of Mr.Lloyd Martin and afternoon callers of Mrs.Rudolphe Grenier at Manoir de Chez-Nous Foyer.22 0e nc mnie i 2m Am Nm man AY me mar} VAS mb Ge et | ee md aC a me Matrox Diamond Adaptec ACER 486 DX2/66 8 Meg memory 540 Meg hard disk 14\" screen 28 SVGA Bilingual keyboard Microsoft mouse MsDOS 6.22 and Windows 3.11 3.5 Drive (1.44) Tel.: EI A PSN ® LE 2 Le Clinique de L'ordinateur Computer Sales, Parts, Accessories, Repairs, Configuration Modifications y 759 Paul-Desruisseaux, Sherbrooke @ 565-1030 QED - 565-1003 Uech ny SY Quantum Seagate, Maxtor * 850 Meg hard disk $440 ° 560 Meg hard disk $330 * 420 Meg hard disk $300 Fax/Modem GVC 14.4 $97 ! rll PECIAL + 486 DX2/80 e 8 Meg memor ° Meg hard disk e 14\u20ac Screen 28 SVGA « Wal kéyBoard EEE NY # OU I OR RETIRE dre anda dah 10\u2014The RECORD\u2014Friday, March 24, 1995 Crosswords ACROSS 1 Provoke 5 Wilde or Levant 10 Bireme feature 14 Arm bone 15 Sophisticated 16 Molded custard 17 Abominable snowman 18 Like a wallflower 19 Greek cheese 20 Card suit 22 Kitchen implement 23 \u201cThe \u2014 of St.Agnes\u201d 26 In \u2014 of 27 Hammer and \u2014 28 Extend an IOU?30 Self-esteem 32 Lifeless 33 Hart 34 Stooge name 37 Emerged from seclusion 41 Moslem caliph 42 Passion 43 Pugilist 44 Mont \u2014 46 Keen-minded 47 Lemon-like fruit 50 Went by car 52 Roast or luck lead-in 53 Pointer 54 Malay garment 56 Bill 57 Doha\u2019s land 58.Declare 62 \u2014 and for all 63 Family circle member 64 Inca country 65 Adolescent 66 Fireplace residue 67 S.A.T., forone DOWN 1 Bandleader Lombardo 2 Corrida cry 3 Hill builder \"4 Platform 5 Acquire.; » 6 Glissade-i~ v 7 Met expectations ACROSS 1 Effortless 5 \u2014 Park, Co.10 Experts 14 Stringed instrument 15 Innocent 16 Pedestal part 17 Cabbage dish 18 \u201cFrom \u2014 icy mountains\u201d (Heber) 20 More worldly 22 Artist Rufino 23 \u201c\u2014 Ben Jonson!\u201d 24 Inflexible 25 Uphold 27 Unvarying 30 Enclose snugly: var.31 Bird of peace 32 Islamic dignitary 33 Soul: Fr.34 Turns 37 Columbus school letters 38 Fishing equipment 40 State 41 Selected 43 Olympic competitors 45 Put on weight 46 Reduce in value 47 Ophidian weapons 48 In any way 50 Most distant 53 Existence beyond reality.55 Head, in Lyons \u201c\u2014 o'clock scholar\u201d 57 Occurred 58 Famous garden 59 Fruit 60 Its capital is Sanaa 61 Serpents DOWN 1 Different 2 Assembly hall of a German school 3 Guiding light ALLEY OOP® by Dave Graue and Jack Bender THAT'S IT, ROMEDIES!

GP Focus on Fecding GED Read: JOHN 6:35-40 Charlotte Elliott learned an important lesson on about Jesus one sleepless night in 1834.She was an invalid, so when her family held a bazaar in Brighton, England, to raise money to build a school, she could only watch from afar.That night she was overwhelmed by her helplessness and could not sleep.But her sadness was turned to joy when she realized that God accepted her just as she was.That experience inspired her to write these well-loved words: \u201cJust as I am, without one plea, but that Thy blood was shed for me, and that Thou bidd\u2019st me come to Thee, O Lamb of God, I come! I \u201cJUST AS | AM\u201d \u2026 the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out.\u2014 John 6:37 come!\u201d When she published the poem in The Invalid\u2019s Hymn Book, she included with it John 6:37.Jesus always accepts people as they are.In John 6, the people had come from miles around to hear Jesus.When the crowd became hungry, He miraculously fed them with a boy\u2019s unselfish gift of five loaves and two fish.Then the Lord offered Himself as \u201cthe bread of life,\u201d promising that He would not turn away anyone who came to Him.It\u2019s still true today.No one who comes to Jesus will be turned away.Come to Him with all your sin.He'll accept you just as you are.- David C.Egner Just as I am.Thou wilt receive, Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve; Because Thy promise I believe, O Lamb of God, I come! I come! - Elliott NO ONE IS GOOD ENOUGH TO SAVE HIMSELF; NO ONE IS BAD ENOUGH THAT GOD CAN'T SAVE HIM.\u2014\u2014_ \u201c \"Our Daily Bread\", copyright 1990 by | Rodio Bible Class, Grand Ropids, Michigar.Used by permission.po COMPLIMENTS OF y-.EATON REGULAR BAPTIST CHURCH .413.Highway 108, Birchton, R.R.#5, Cookshire, Que, JOB 1MO -

we're going nowhere and we need help.\u201d Roberge, a respected fighter, and fellow left winger Yves Sarault were recalled from Fredericton while forwards Craig Darby and Donald Brashear were sent back to the American Hockey League club.The moves followed a listless 3-2 loss to the Florida Panthers on Wednesday that dropped the Canadiens to 11th place in the NHL\u2019s Eastern Conference and into grave danger of missing the playoffs for the first time in 25 years.It was only the second loss at home this season for Montreal but the Canadiens can\u2019t afford any with a 2-12-2 road

he still managed to knock seven strokes off his score when he started making his own clubs.Gillespie, a physics teacher at Polyvalente La Frontalière in Coaticook, started making clubs for himself and friends a few years ago.But for the last four years its been more of a profession than a hobby.\u201cI was making too many clubs for other people, so I thought I'd start a business to have something to do when I'm not in school,\u201d he said with a laugh, CERTIFIED Gillespie recently became one of only 18 Canadian clubmakers to be certified by the Professional Clubmakers\u2019 Society (PCS) based in Louisville, Kentucky.Another Townshipper, Luc Ber- geron, is also a PCS Class A certified clubmaker.Both men had to earn a mark of 80 per cent or better on a 230-question theoretical written exam, and make seven clubs to specifications of the society.Gillespie said it was a difficult test which took close to 76 hours to complete, but it was worth it.Now he feels more confident about his workmanship.And he couldn\u2019t have picked a better time to get involved in one of the golfing industry\u2019s fastest growing sectors.According to the PCS about 35 per cent of all clubs sold in the United States and Canada are custom made.But Gillespie isn\u2019t in it for the money, he likes seeing people get the most out of golf.\u201cMost of all I like people,\u201d he said in his basement workshop.\u201cUsually if you let people talk about what they want from golf, why they're playing golf, you know what they are aiming for.\u201d \u201cWhen you know that you can really help them.\u201d duals, Demers finally confirmed the losses were not only from poor play or lack of effort.\u201cIt started halfway through last season,\u201d Demers said.\u201cIt\u2019s time we started playing hockey and stopped all this silliness.\u201d He said the 31-year-old Roberge would \u201cgive us a spark\u201d both on the ice with his toughness and off it with his work habits and friendly demeanor.Demers also said Roberge was \u201cwell accepted by English- and French-speaking players,\u201d but did not elaborate.Roberge was sent to Fredericton on Jan.17, just ahead of the waiver draft, to become a player- coach.General manager Serge Savard said Roberge would not return to Montreal and he went unclaimed in the draft.With the team reeling after the loss to Florida, Demers met with some veterans on the team and came away convinced that Roberge could help the team again, \u201cIt's good for me,\u201d said goaltender Patrick Roy, who has been run over by opposing forwards of late who took advantage of the Canadiens\u2019 apparent unwillingness to stand up for their teammates.\u201cAnd it will be good for Lyle Odelein,\u201d he added.\u201cHe\u2019s the only guy who

right-winger Pat Verbeek from the Hartford Whalers on Thursday in an attempt to improve their power play and aggressiveness.The deal followed the Rangers\u2019 5-2 defeat to the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday night, a game coach Colin Campbell called \u2018\u201c\u2018\u201chumbling and MADE TO MEASURE Gillespie starts each session constructing a player profile.Do you want to hit the ball straighter, farther or a compromise between the two.How about higher or lower.It all depends on the golfer and the golfer\u2019s swing.That's why 80 per cent of Gillespie\u2019s clients have been golfing for at least 10 years.\u201cThey know what they need and they know that to have clubs made is something special,\u201d he said.The main part of each club is the shaft, said Gillespie.That's what makes the difference between store-bought clubs and custom-built ones.\u201cGolf club fitting is a technical thing.Eighty-five per cent of your clubwork comes from your shafts,\u201d he explained.\u201cYou really have to find the right one for the person.\u201d \u201cOnce you have one that fits you, you know it, because it\u2019s a lot easier to hit,\u201d Gillespie added.Golfers periodically have problems hitting the ball straight and end up searching in the woods for their lost Pinnacle 3.Most chalk it up to a bad swing.DISPERSION \u201cDispersion comes from your shafts, not necessarily the golfer,\u201d Gillespie said, as he showed some of the ones he had collected in his workshop.\u201cThe golfer can have a good swing and bad dispersion if they have a very bad shaft.\u201d That\u2019s were custom-built clubs offer an advantage over most of the store-bought variety.The clubmaker has over a 1,000 different kinds of shafts to chose from, while in a shop you might only have six different kinds to choose from, he said.\u201cWhen you need dentures you Roberge recalled to add atmosphere to team Islanders 1 Rangers 0 UNIONDALE, N.Y.(AP) \u2014 Tommy Soderstrom stopped all 37 shots for his first shutout of the season and Steve Thomas scored the only goal of the game halfway through the third period as the New York Islanders snapped a five-game losing streak with a 1-0 victory over the New York Rangers on Thursday night.Soderstrom was brilliant throughout the contest, including his best third-period stop, a right leg kick save on Mark Osborne six minutes in.Mike Richter stopped 14 shots as the Rangers lost their fifth straight and dipped below .500.The Rangers\u2019 regular-season futility continued at Nassau Coliseum, where

for their swing,\u201d That's where Gillespie's 27 years of golfing come in handy.\u201cIf I hadn\u2019t played so much golf I wouldn't believe some of the swings I've seen, there are all different kinds,\u201d he said.\u201cWhat I try to do is fit the clubs to fit the swing of the person and not have them all to try to swing the same, that\u2019s impossible.\u201d PHYSICS USEFUL That's where Gillespie\u2019s physics background comes into use.He can take the golfer\u2019s swing, swing speed, and their profile to determine which shaft will best en a good-looking golf swing doesn\u2019t m suit their needs.Then he can start making the club(s).And that leads to the greatest reward for Gillespie, who gets most of his customers from word of mouth.\u201cThey come back and say \u2018they're working nice and this has gone a lot better.I have never hit the ball so straight.\u2019 It\u2019s really rewarding at the other end.\u201d \u201cWhen you fit one person, they play with their friends and then you see all of their friends coming in.\u201d Gillespie said that most Canadians aren\u2019t aware of the benefits of having custom-built clubs, but it\u2019s a big business in the U.S.Nevertheless he keeps very busy fitting golfers from Montreal, Ottawa, Quebec City and all points in between.ean the ball will stay out of the woods if you have the wrong kind of shafts.QUEBEC (CP) \u2014 The Parti Québécois caucus has given the provincial government the green light on a \u201creasonable\u201d plan to help out the NHL\u2019s Quebec Nordiques, Le Soleil reported Thursday.The report added that a PQ caucus meeting earlier this week rejected the idea of establishing a casino in the city, with profits directed to help build a new arena for the club.But the report said many in the caucus favored entering into a type of business partnership with the Nordiques, providing the hockey team gives certain guarantees the government won't lose money in the venture.Such assistance might be similiar to the low-interest loan the previous Liberal government provided the business consortium which bought major league baseball\u2019s Montreal Expos four years ago.Nordiques president and part-owner Marcel Aubut has pressed for help from all government levels to build a new Colisée.Aubut said the franchise, which may lose as much as $10 million this season, can only survive if it has a new building with more seating capaci- PQ government will help Nords ty and revenue-generating luxury boxes.The team, which currently has the best record in the NHL, has been the subject of sale rumors for several months.Business groups in Phoenix, Denver and Atlanta have been mentioned as potential buyers for as much as $75 million US.Rosaire Bertrand, PQ caucus chairman, told Le Soleil that the Nordiques file was on the agenda at the caucus meeting, but he would not elaborate.Aubut announced in January he had appproval from the team\u2019s board of governors to sell the club if it does not have government aid in hand by April.The team also wants the province to cover its debts until a new arena is built.\u201cIt\u2019s clear that if there isn\u2019t sufficient help from the government, the team will leave,\u201d team spokesman Jean Marti- neau said.someone who has scored 40 or more goals three times during his 12-year NHL career and 35 or more six times in the past eight

\u2014 St.Louis Blues left winger Kevin Miller got his wish Thursday when the team traded him to the San Jose Sharks for centre Todd Elik.Miller, 29, upset over limited playing time this season, had requested a trade earlier this year.He played in only 15 of the Blues\u2019 27 games, with two goals and five assists.The Blues have been short of centres since trading Craig Jan- ney to San Jose earlier this month.Elik, 28, led the Sharks with seven goals and ranked second on the team with 10 assists.Four of his goals have come on the power play.Pe oY pmed pi am Ten ma tm Sports The

\u2014 Hatfield Bishop\u2019s student bulks up for NFL dé.3 he ERY Mark Hatfield.Bulking up for NFL shot.By Terry Scott LENNOXVILLE (CP) \u2014 Mark Hatfield, an offensive tackle with the Bishop's Gaiters, is watching his weight these days.Hatfield is a strapping six- foot-six, 285 pounds.That might make him a big man on campus, but he\u2019s still considered a little too lean by National Football League standards.And since Hatfield has aspirations of being selected in next month\u2019s NFL draft, he\u2019s eating about eight times a day \u2014 from porridge to pasta, to snacks of energy bars and calorie shakes.\u201cI literally set my watch to eat every two hours,\u201d he says.The Gloucester, Ont.native was the only Canadian collegiate player invited to last month's NFL scouting combines camp.The camp is held annually to run athletic tests on and showcase the top 300 prospects for the NFL draft, held this year on April 22-23.In the last decade, the only invitees from Canadian collegiate football ranks were offensive guard Mike Schad, from Queen's, and defensive lineman Leroy Blugh, from Bishop's.Schad went on to play with the Los Angeles Rams and Philadelphia Eagles.Blugh, who didn't have a good NFL combines camp because of a shoulder injury, wasn\u2019t drafted by an NFL team, but he\u2019s had a solid career with the Edmonton Eskimos of the Canadian Football League.Shortly after attending the NFL camp, Hatfield was the first-round draft choice \u2014 eighth overall \u2014 of the CFL's Grey Cup champion British Columbia Lions.\u201cI came home after the (CFL) draft and I was sitting in my room, and then it hit me that a lot has happened to me in the last few weeks,\u201d he said in a recent interview.Local players to compete Rock Forest to host top tennis teens ROCK FOREST (RM) \u2014 For the third straight year the Rock Forest recreation centre will play host to the best young tennis players the province has to offer.The under-18 Quebec Indoor Championships will be held at the centre from March 31 to April 2.\u201cA championships like this will allow people to see the high- level of these players and it will continue to help raise the awareness of tennis in the region,\u201d said François Lefebvre, the head-pro at the centre.\u201cIt is very important for the development of tennis in the region,\u201d he added.\u201cSeeing high- calibre players helps motivate f young players from our region.\u201d And there will be plenty of top¥ notch players to keep their eyes on, including Simon Larose, who was the top under-16 boy in Canada in 1994.So far in 1995, Larose is ranked third in the province in his first year amongst the under-18s.Other notables on the boys\u2019 side: Jean-François Giguère, who François Rioux.is currently ranked first mn the category and was seventh among under-16s in Canada last year, and Frangois Rioux, the top under-14 in Canada last year who is currently third amongst under-16s in the province.In the girls\u2019 draw the top seed will be 15-year-old Christina Popescu.The Montreal resident was ranked sixth overall in the province last year.Boucherville\u2019s Marie-Claude Ostiguy will try to meet her rival.Ostiguy was ranked second in Canada in the under-16 class, but Popescu is ranked higher provincially.Nine local tennis players will be trying to earn a spot in the championships when qualifying *is held this weekend at the Rock - Forest Recreation.Qentre.Four spots in both the boys and girls C.O.Brocato, a Houston Oilers scout was impressed enough by film clips of Hatfield to recommend that Hatfield be invited to the NFL combines.\u201cMark had a real good workout,\u201d says Brocato.\u201cI had him timed at 5.2 seconds in the 40-yard dash, which was right up there among the top players at his position.\u201d Hatfield also had the best broad and vertical jump of his peers at the camp.\u201cI think he will be drafted by an NFL team,\u201d Hatfield's agent Da-Ishudo Ping said from his office in Saline, Mich.\u201cI don\u2019t want to project just where because you always want to be cautious before the draft.\u201d Brocato, speaking from Austin, Tex., adds: \u201cSomeone may draft him late.The guy fit right in at the combines camp.What he needs is a little more bulk because right now he\u2019s got a lot of lean.\u201d SY BND OWE EE EP WE TS 1 A championship draw will be up for grabs.\u201cThis is a very good sign that tennis is growing all over the region,\u201d Lefebvre said of the local participants.Six of the players are students in the Sport Etude program at Le Triolet high school in Sherbrooke.Lefebvre praised the pro-~ gram which helped propel Sébastien Lareau, ranked 102nd in the world, and Greg Rusedski, ranked 117th, onto the professional circuit.\u201cThese kids work very hard,\u201d he said.\u201cThe Sport Etude program is going to help us develop : some great tennis players.\u201d .Lefebvre said local

her 1993 French Open failure, Sabatini blew a 6-1, 5-1 lead, double-faulted 18 times, squandered three match points and lost to ailing Kimiko Date in Thursday\u2019s semifinals of the Lipton Championships.Date, bothered by a sore shoulder that hindered her serve and forehand, nonetheless rallied to win 1-6, 7-6 (7-2), 7-6 (7-4).\u201cWhen it was 5-1 (in the second set), I didn\u2019t feel very good,\u201d Sabatini said.\u201cI was close to winning the match, but that wasn't the feeling I got.\u201d Date likewise looked less than confident in advancing to the final against Steffi
