controversial poll question on whether parents favor separate schools for immigrants and native-born Quebecers.The Montreal Catholic School Commission pulled the plug on the question after a storm of protest from ethnic leaders, parents’ groups and teachers’ associations.Marie Belanger, an opposition councillor in the commission, blamed the controversy on commis- sion chairman Michel Pallascio, who called a special vote on the question.Pallascio has said he proposed the withdrawal of the question because of the controversy it had provoked — and not because of its content.The question was one of 36 in the survey and asked parents whether they favored: separate schools for immigrant students and native-born Quebecers: schools with a SOSO mix; or the present system, where students’ residence plays a key role.Asked a few hours before the decision what he thought of the question.Education Minister Claude Ryan replied, “Well, I indicated from the very beginning that 1 was not sympathetic to this kind of polling.” NO GUARANTEES But Ryan said he would not take measures in the future to guarantee that such questions could never be asked.Ryan said he has considerable faith in the judgment of school commissioners.“The quality of a person or a body lies in its ability to correct a mistake,” he added.Pallascio has charged that the Protestant School Board of Greater Montreal already runs "separate" schools but that accusation was refuted Thursday.“We do not have special schools,” said John Simms, president of the Quebec Association of Protestant School Boards.Supreme Court: men can’t block abortions Christmas concerts mean much practice By Jim Brown OTTAWA (CP) — Some liked it, some didn’t, but all turned their attention toward Parliament Hill on Thursday after the Supreme Court of Canada handed down its latest pronouncement on abortion.Lawyers, lobbyists and politicians agreed the court’s unanimous judgment had put an end — at least for the time being — to ef- But while Campaign Life appealed for a law that would ban abortion unless the mother’s life is threatened, pro-choice activists promised to continue their battle to prevent the passage of any law.Kit Holmwood, president of the Canadian Abortion Rights Action League, said if the bill currently before the Commons — sponsored by Justice Minister Doug Lewis — forts by husbands or boyfriends to^ever becomes law it could spark a w r use court injunctions to block women from having abortions.In Montreal, Jean-Guy Tremblay, the man most directly affected, mixed personal arA political sentiment, telling reporters: “If (former premier) Rene Levesque had led Quebec to independence, then the Quebec court would have been the top court and my baby would still be alive.There was no justice then and there is no justice now.” Tremblay, 25, won an injunction in July, upheld by the Quebec Court of Appeal, barring his exgirlfriend Chantal Daigle from having an abortion.The 21-year-old Daigle, who said she left Tremblay after he physi cally abused her, ignored the injunction and went ahead with the abortion while the case was pending before the Supreme Court in August.Quebec Justice Minister Gil Re-millard announced Thursday that he will not press contempt of court charges against Daigle, who was in seclusion but planned a news conference today in Val d’Or, Que.“I think that after what happened last summer she has had enough difficulty,” said Remil-lard.Meanwhile, anti-abortion forces vowed to fight another day — this time on a political rather than judicial battlefield.“It is Parliament’s responsibility to protect the rights of the unborn with a law in the Criminal Code,” said Paul Dodds, a lawyer with Campaign Life, the leading national coalition of anti-abortion groups.“Really, what the court has indicated is that the abortion issue belongs with members of Parliament.” Argue faces new charges OTTAWA (CP) — Hazen Argue’s lawyer says the senator should not have to face new charges from a second RCMP investigation once he stands trial for the five already laid.John Nelligan told reporters Thursday it would be unfair for his client to have to defend himself in court on one set of charges only to have to return for new charges because the RCMP has split its investigation.The RCMP charged Argue, a former Liberal cabinet minister, with breach of trust, fraud and theft after a 13-month investigation Wednesday.The charges are linked to public funds used in an unsuccessful campaign by his wife to gain the Liberal nomination in an Ottawa-area riding last year.But in an unusual move, the RCMP also announced it was continuing to investigate the senator’s travel expenses.Nelligan said he hopes any further action by the RCMP is taken before Argue stands trial on the charges that have been already laid.The senator must appear in Ontario provincial court Dec.8.“I think it would be most unfair if we had to come back and they have two kicks at the cat,” Nelligan said.’new round of injunction requests.Irate men could allege that their wives or lovers are about to undergo an illegal abortion, or that doctors are about to perform one, and ask the courts to halt the procedure, she speculated.“What’s frightening is the proposed new law, not the Supreme Court decision,” said Holmwood, whose group favors unrestricted access to abortion.‘‘It would seem that the best way of dealing with this is to have no criminal law.” The government bill would allow abortion at any stage of pregnancy if a single doctor believes the wo-than’s physical or psychological health is threatened, but leaves the definition of health up to the doctor.Helene Ouellet, press secretary to Lewis, acknowledged that injunctions could be requested, based on a challenge to the definition of health, once the bill becomes law.But she said the government remains convinced the legislation strikes an acceptable balance between the interests of the fetus and the woman and it will withstand constitutional challenge.Bernard Dickens, an expert in medical law at the University of Toronto, said it would be theoretically possible to file injunctions, but the Supreme Court decision will have a chilling effect on lower-court judges.“If higher courts are going to hammer them into the ground, they’re going to think twice.” The Supreme Court said the rights of the unborn are not guaranteed by Quebec civil law, English-based common law, or the Quebec Charter of Rights.It did not rule on whether fetal rights are protected under the federal charter, which is worded differently.SENDS SIGNAL But Dickens and Sanda Rodgers, a University of Ottawa law professor, said the court seemed to be signalling there is no such protection.“I wouldn’t want to go before the Supreme Court and ask them for a decision on what the federal charter means,” agreed Dodds.“It is very clear that the present judges are not very open to arguments about the right to life.” The University Singers, directed by Nancy Rahn, were busy Thursday practising all out for their Christmas concert.The big event is coming up next weekend at Bishop’s University’s Centen- nial Theatre in Lennoxville.lA>ok inside to read about the choir and their music in the What’s On pages of Townships Week.Canada’s refugee laws useless to East Germans By Phillip Day OTTAWA (CP) — An agreement to help East German refugees come to Canada may be worthless unless the government backs it up with changes to refugee policy, says a spokesman for the German-Canadian Congress, A master sponsorship agreement between the government and the congress was approved Thursday.It could turn out to be little more than window dressing, congress secretary Edith Kuntz warned.“If we cannot use it for people that we want to bring into the country it might be merely a worthless piece of paper,” she said.The sponsorship agreement allows the congress and its affiliated groups to “assist eligible refugees and those in refugee-like situations to resettle in Canada,” according to a release from Immigration Minister Barbara McDougall.But the government doesn’t consider most of the people leaving East Germany to be refugees or eligible for “near-refugee” status, Kuntz said.East Germans are automatically given West German citizenship when they leave East Germany.Once that happens, they no longer are considered refugees.“Under this master agreement, regular immigration procedures will have to be carried out and it may take up to a year to bring somebody in anyway,” she said.“The situation in West Germany is getting desperate — these people need help now, they can’t wait for eight to 12 months.” Rita Mezzanotte, press secretary for McDougall, said the agreement wasn’t intended to change Canadian policy on East German refugees.“Everything that is being done is all under current programs and current policies.Other than the signing of the agreement, there isn’t any special deal.“There isn’t any new program in place or any restructuring of our current immigration system to allow for more (refugees).” Mezzanotte said there hasn’t really been a need for Canada to alter its policy because few of the East Germans immigrating to the West are trying to come to this country “Currently, there hasn’t been any increase in the demand to come to Canada,” she said.“At this point we don’t realty see a need to change the immigration policy.” Kuntz agreed there haven’t been many people trying to get to Canada.But she said that’s because they aren’t being encouraged to come here.“They would be interested if we would offer them anything.We would get thousands of people if the doors were open because the situation there is getting desperate.” She said the one thing that could be helpful about the agreement is that the congress can now tell refugees how to apply to get into Canada.“We can at least offer (advice) now.Before we had the master agreement we couldn’t do that because we didn’t have any status at all.” Populist Liberal M.P.Malépart dies at 50 (CP) - Liberal MP Jean-Claude Malépart, the scrappy former factory worker who spent a lifetime battling for the poor, the sick and the elderly, died Thursday of cancer.He was 50.Malépart died in a Montreal hospital after a year-long battle with the illness.He smoked heavily until three years ago.The portly MP personified the image of his roots : he was proud to say he was a product of his upbringing in his beloved but downtrodden neighborhood in Montreal’s tough east end.“In 50 years I never left the neighborhood,” Malépart said in his recently published memoirs.“When I walk around here, I realize this is my environment.This is my life.This is my world.These are my battles.” He was folksy, hot-tempered and given to blunt or salty language.But that was just fine as far as the working-class constituents in the east-end riding of Laurier-Sainte-Marie were concerned.He was re-elected in four straight general elections going back to 1979.Malépart spoke little English, but he gained a national profile as his party’s social affairs critic in 1985 when he led the Liberal fight against the government’s plan to de-index old-age pensions.His baritone rising and his finger jabbing, the jowly Malépart spent seven weeks attacking the plan, keeping the heat on Finance Minister Michael Wilson and Prime Minister Brian Mulroney until the plan was scrapped.He came by his social activism early.At 12 he organized a strike by the altar boys in his parish.Tne priest at the church balked at raising their five-cent-per-mass pay rate.“We took out the placards and went on strike,” he said.“I was without a doubt the originator of the first and last altar boy strike in Quebec.” But it was his role as a champion of the common man that brought him the most pleasure in his work as an MP, he said recently.“It’s like continuing the social work 1 started when I was young,” he said.“If I didn’t like it I would’ve gone back to Macdonald Tobacco a long time ago.” Malépart was last in the Commons during the spring session.Chemotherapy sessions had reduced his dark thatch of hair to a fuzzy, grey fringe.But his last major speech was vintage Malépart: an attack on Wilson for cutting payments to health care.Canada Post customers need more door-to-door OTTAWA (CP) — Canada Post should provide door-to-door deli-very for customers using community mail boxes and consider increasing the number of boxes by 1993, the postal services review committee recommended Thursday, There are about 405,000 boxes in current use and the commit-teee recommends that the number be increased to 800,000 by 1993.Post office service to large volume mail users has improved in recent years, Alan Marchment, chairman of the watchdog committee, told reporters, but it is lagging for average Canadians.“All Canadians should benefit from increased post office profitability, not just some sectors,” he said.The post office announced it June that had made a 1988-89 profit of $96 million, its first in 30 years.The committee was appointed last year by Harvie Andre, minister responsible for the post office.In his criticism of the controversial policy of using community boxes, Marchment said there now are about five million addresses getting door-to-door delivery or approximately 53 per cent of Canadians.Extending delivery to the customers now using boxes would not be a serious problem for the post office, he said.The committee also said it supports proposed rate increases on some postal services, scheduled to take effect Jan.1.The price of a first-class stamp would go to 39 cents from the present 38 cents.The rate increases would provide the post office with $72 million in additional revenue in 1990-91.However in a letter to Donald Lander, Canada Post president, contained in the report the committee says the post office didn’t give it enough information on the rate increases.‘Because of this, we cannot conclude that the proposed rates are fair and reasonable or are consistent with the encouragement of fair competition with other like services or the operation of an efficient and competitive postal service.“However we recognize that the corporation requires increased revenues if it is to achieve the goal of self-sufficiency set out in the government’s April 1989 budget.” Liberal postal critic Don Bou-dria said later Canadians would only tolerate postal rate increases if Canada Post restores door-to-door delivery in areas where it has been eliminated and stops closing rural post offices.He also said he was pleased the committee had recommended the post office remain under regulations on services where it has no competition from the private sector.A Canada Post spokesman said it stands by its corporate plan and would comment after taking more time to study the recommendations. 2—The RECORD—Friday, November 17, 1989 The Townships Ikcara 4 A.matter of making perseveranee pay off’ Juel Weideman: Strong social conscience keeps her going By Gil Smith COWANSVILLE — Juel Weideman is a woman with an active social conscience, and the cause of literacy in the Eastern Townships has benefitted as a result.Her efforts to promote awareness of the illiteracy problem, and to provide solutions to it, led to the formation of what has become one of the most active literacy groups in the province.The Townshippers Reading Council, a strong exam pie of literacy in action, owes its existence to her dedication.Operating in conjunction with the Adult Ed.department of the District of Bedford Protestant Regional School Board in Cowansville, it has done much to combat the problem of rural illiteracy.“Getting involved in literacy was a natural career choice for me,” Weidman says.“I’d been caught up in social action since my high school days.” CONSCIENCE “Studies in social anthropology and the awakening of my social conscience in the sixties, helped pave the way.” Coming to the Townships from Toronto in 1976, she worked part-time for the school board on various projects in Bedford, and in 1980 made her first foray into literacy.“From 1980 to 1983 I was instrumental in developing a communi- ty-based literacy council here in the Townships,” Weideman says.“I went out into the community, asked to speak to local groups and organizations, and met with various community leaders and citizens.I talked with them about a problem that was largely unrecognized at the time, the lack of reading and writing skills among large sectors of their communities.Some people were genuinely surprised at the news.” SURVEY Unawareness of illiteracy problems, not only locally but right across Canada, continued until 1987.At that point a country-wide survey by the Southam News organization uncovered the fact that one-in-four Canadians were functionally illiterate.The Mulroney government, reacting with as much surprise to the news as the general population, has since pledged $110 million over a five-year period to help fight the problem.Weideman says the early efforts of organizers like herself to combat illiteracy, especially in rural areas, were marginally successful.“People in the country are polite, and even though they didn’t feel personally motivated to act, some did listen to me and invited me back to speak to their groups,” she recalls.“During those first few years here in the Townships, it was a matter of making perseverance pay off.” IT WAS SLOW Eventually a small nucleus of literacy tutors began to meet regularly in Cowansville, using the Bedford Board’s Adult Ed.facilities.That grew into what’s known today as the Townshippers Reading Council.“But it was a slow, carefully-constructed process.” The council, which currently has some 50 tutors and 30 learners, is part of the Laubach Literacy of Canada organization.It features the “one-to-one” teaching method of the late Dr.Frank Laubach, a United States missionary who pioneered the instructional method 50 years ago in third world countries like the Philippines and in Africa.It’s one of such such literacy groups in the Townships, the other being the St.Francis Literacy Council in Lennox ville.First-time tutors, all of whom are volunteers, receive 12 hours of training in the Laubach method at workshops held at various times during the year.GOOD USE “When people give their time voluntarily to a cause, they want that gift of time put to good use,” Weideman said.“That meant that the literacy council had to become involved with a wider spectrum of new readers.” “Tutoring in the prison system at Cowansville was an example.So was teaching English as a second language to non-English students.And tutoring adults with mental handicaps also became part of the council’s expanded mission.” A stepped-up tutor training program had to be devised to meet the growing needs, and Weideman helped to start it.“The basic workshop for tutors was a strong starting point for a new volunteer,” she noted.“I recognized, however, that adult learners don’t fit into neat pigeon holes.So if the tutors are to feel confident, they need a range of teaching skills.NEW METHODS “We developed in-service training that covered a variety of language experience activities.These include writing for adult new readers, assessment techniques for adults with reading disabilities, review and reinforcement strategies, and special techniques for the mentally handicapped adult.” Not all the ambitious programs were unqualified successes.A youth tutoring project, launched in 1986 and aimed at recruiting young people to teach literacy skills to other young adults, ground to a halt in Quebec after funding ran out.“It was very disappointing to see that project finish without further funding,” Weideman said.“All the staff that’d been assembled to run it had to go on to other projects, including me.” FLOURISHED IN E.T.Despite such occasional setbacks the literacy cause has flourished in the Eastern Townships, and Weideman is largely responsible for it.Largely, but not solely.Pioneering efforts from people like Gerry Bleser, a past president of Laubach Literacy of Canada who’s currently involved in the DBRSB’s Adult Alternative School, helped a lot.So has the ongoing support of the school’s Adult Education Department in Cowansville, which provides the Townshippers Reading Council with working facilities.The many voluntary tutors have, of course, been a vital source of strength as well.“The contributions of learners like Wilbur Talbot and Russel Carter should be acknowledged too,” Weideman pointed out.“Both have gone public and spoken out on behalf of learners.That encourages others to come forward and seek help.” BIGGER THINGS With the Townships literacy council that she founded running smoothly, Weideman was chosen by the national Laubach office in 1987 to be manager of their Industrial Tutoring Project, with offices th*>n in St-Armand West , not too far Juel Weideman.‘Adult learners don’t fit into neat pigeon holes.’ from her Bedford home.That project’s aim is to reduce illiteracy in the workplace, a blight on Canadian industry that’s costing the country a staggering $4 billion annually.This year, completing a successful decade of literacy involvement, Weideman was made Laubach’s executive director and head of the National Project and Development Office, which is located at 15 River Street in Bedford.i Natural medicine or quackery?Naessens trial: Lawyers argue while jury waits ‘She let him inside in good faith’ City police hunt widow’s killer SHERBROOKE (AM)-The five man, four woman Superior Court jury in the Gaston Naessens trial more or less had the day off Thursday.Naessens, a Rock Forest scientist who treats cancer and aids patients with an un-authorized drug aUegedly made up of natural ingredients, is on trial in Superior Court for criminal negligence leading to the death of Angèle Langlais, 68.Langlais died of generalized cancer in 1984 after receiving 14 months of treatment of Naessens’ controversial “714X” serum.The Crown is trying to establish that Langlais might have lived if Naessens had not have convinced her that his medicine really worked.Defence lawyer Conrad Chapde-laine is trying to prove that Naessens engages in natural medicine, a legitimate alternative when someone has little chance of survival and all else fails, including offical medical procedures.CHARLATAN?Crown prosecutor Claude Melan-çon is trying to prove Naessens is a charlatan — an unscrupulous phony who preys on the desperation of the terminally ill and charges them for treatment that doesn’t work.Naessens is thus also charged with two counts of fraud and two counts of assault causing bodily harm, for having tricked, then pricked the patients with his serum-filled needles, Five witnesses have testified so far in the trial but further testimony was halted Thursday after Mr.Justice Jean-Louis Péloquin sent the jury outside and called a voir dire — an examination of suggested evidence to judge if its admissible in court.The two lawyers involved in the trial took the afternoon to debate points of law as well.The judge is expected to render his decision on the voir dire today when the trial resumes.By Charles Bury SHERBROOKE — Florence Ar-guin was right to be afraid.But why?City police have few solid leads into the strangling death Tuesday of the 82-year old east end widow.Arguin was so afraid of intruders she would regularly double lock both doors put heavy chairs behind them and keep the curtains closed at her modest 8th Ave.south house.The precautions worked until Tuesday, when a neighbor who looked in on the pensioner almost every day found her body stretched out on the floor behind her front door.The doors had been locked.When there was no response to his knock at about 1:15 p.m., the neighbor, on his way to pick up her grocery shopping list, used a key she had given him to get in.There was no chair behind the door as usual, and some apparent minor disarray showed in the neatly-kept home.So even though police first thought the woman had died of natural causes, they remained suspicious.An autopsy showed she had been choked to death earlier the same day.Police Capt.Jacques Testulat said careful work by the first patrolmen on the scene, who disturbed the premises as little as possible, was making detectives’ work easier.But they have little to go on in their first murder case of 1989." Was the killer someone the widow Arguin knew?Police won’t say yes or no.But whoever killed Florence Arguin, “she let him inside in good faith,” Det.-Lt.Camille Vachon said Thursday.Four detectives are working on the case full time, Vachon said.They are led by Det.-Sgt.Réal Cha-rest.A FEW DAYS There have been no arrests but Vachon said police “should have something in a few days.” Since she lived alone “we have to go piece by piece, by deduction, and according to what people tell us,” Vachon said.“This isn’t the kind of investigation we could finish off in ten minutes,” he added.Vachon has some solid survival advice to give to the eldery but he fears it will be wasted.“Don’t live alone and don’t keep much money around,” he said.“After a certain age, living by yourself is dangerous,” added the veteran detective.“But people don’t listen,” he said.“They are set in their ways and nothing can change their mind.” Six Jesuits shot in El Salvador Scientist vouches for Ogopogo By Robert Russo OTTAWA (CP) — Canadian colleagues of six priests slain in El Salvador mourned their deaths Thursday and called on the government to suspend bilateral aid to the Salvadoran government.The six Jesuit priests were tortured and shot to death in their home in the capital, San Salvador.A cook and her daughter were also killed in the attack.“It’s an enormous loss.I don’t know how to put it into words,” said a shaken Father Michael Czerny, a Jesuit who knew and worked with the priests for the more than 10 years.Most of the victims were born in Spain but had lived in El Salvador most of their adult lives.All were attached to the University of Central America, including Ignacio Ellacuria and Ignacio Baro, the rector and vice-rector of the university.The priests were also active in human rights and literacy groups in El Salvador.Czerny blamed the attack on the Salvadoran army, which has been fighting a rebel offensive for more than five days in the capital.“Their house had been attacked several times over the years by death squads,” said Czerny, 43.“This time, it is quite clear it was the army who did this.There was no attempt to hide the identity of the perpetrators.” The Salvadoran Jesuits were frequently the target of sharp criticism from some right-wing pobti-cians and military officers, who saw the priests as siding with the country’s leftist rebels.At a news conference Thursday, human rights representatives from various church groups called on the Canadian government to suspend its bilateral aid package with El Salvador.They also asked Canada to use its new position as a member of the Organization of American States to press the right-wing Salvadoran government and its chief backer, the United States, to arrange a ceasefire in the latest battle of the 10-year-old civil war.But they came away with little more than vague assurances, said John Foster, national secretary of Oxfam Canada.“The response was far too general for us to be assured that was happening,” he said.“We received no assurance that there would not be escalation or that Canada was urging effectively against that.” KELOWNA, B.C.(CP) — Ogopogo, the legendary monster of Okanagan Lake, could be a modem relative of a prehistoric whale, says a University of Chicago professor.“These are perfectly normal unidentified animals,” said Roy Mackal, a biochemist who has spend most of his professional çlife studying unusual marine creatures.“We have to get ourselves out of the provincial idea that we have done the last exploration, found the last animal.” The elusive lake creature swam back into the news this summer when a former car salesman from Salmon Arm, B.C., shot a video of something swimming in Okanagan Lake about 280 kilometres east of Vancouver.Ken Chaplin said on at least five occasions in July he saw a snake- like creature about 15 feet long, hairless and dark green in color.Mackal was in Kelowna for an interview with Unsolved Mysteries, which is making a film about Ogopogo.The magazine-style U.S.television program runs stories on unsolved crimes, disappearances and historical mysteries.Mackal said there is a common pattern to stories around the Northern Hemisphere about unidentified water creatures.They all occur in rivers and lake systems connected to the sea that either support or have supported migratory fish.The lakes are always deep and cold.By comparing all reports of lake creatures he could find, Mackal has concluded the creatures’ characteristics best correspond to a zeuglodon-toothed whale — a spe- cies in its prime 20 million years ago but now thought to be extinct.MOVES QUICKLY Non-mammals that are coldblooded do not generally move fast enough in cold water to match the reported activity of Ogopogo and similar creatures, Mackal said.In addition, non-mammals like fish propel themselves by moving from side to side, unlike the unidentified lake creatures that have always been reported to move up and down.But mammals like beavers and otters, even extinct and unusual varieties, are simply not big enough to match the descriptions, Mackal said.Modem whales are not snakelike enough to fit the composite description of Ogopogo, but the zeugle-don whale is.#1___ftg-1 Kama Randy Klnnear, Publisher.569-9511 Charles Bury, Editor.569-6345 Lloyd G.Schelb, Advertising Manager.569-9525 Richard Lessard, Production

They were apparently going from Richmond Regional High School and St.Francis Elementary, both in Richmond.Police have not released the name of the deceased, pending notification of next of kin.The injured students were not named.Richmond firefighters spent more than an hour extracting th* man’s body from the car, which was lodged underneath the bus.According to police, the straight section of Route 116 where the collision occured was recently under construction, but the asphalt was in good condition Thursday.Driver killed near Richmond ‘We have to strive for literacy^ Israel can’t stop Palestinians from learning — student By John Tollefsrud LENNOXVILLE — School closures by Israeli authorities won’t prevent Palestinians from learning, a student from the Israeli-occupied West Bank told Champlain College humanities students Thursday.“We feel that Israeli authorities, their main target is education — to close schools,” said Maisoun, who asked that her family name not be used.“We as Palestinians want to have education so we can become an independent state.” Maisoun, 23, described the present situation in her part of the Middle East to about 35 students and a few Champlain faculty members.She denounced the Israeli occupation and the forced closure of Palestinian schools.“This notice actually violates the human rights declaration,” she said, referring to the United Nations document.Maisoun’s November tour of Quebec and Ontario schools is sponsored by two organizations, the Carrefour de Solidarité International and Salam, a Quebec group whose name is Arabic for peace.Champlain professors Graham Israeli actions in the occupied West Bank deprive the locals of their basic human rights, says Maisoun.Moodie and Rudy Nasser co-hosted the event to benefit their classes, Flag and Anthem — Modern Nationalism, and International Conflict.SCHOOLS CLOSED Maisoun explained that all schools in the occupied territories were closed indefinitely last year but most were re-opened in August — the exception being the territories’ five universities.Although she focused on the difficulties getting an education, Maisoun did not deny that most Palestinian students, including herself, are staunch backers of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO).“I think they are strong supporters,” she said.The popular uprising by Palestinians began in December 1987 — when Israel cracked down on the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.It created a rejuvenated nationalist movement called Infada, Arabic for uprising.Israel has occupied the disputed regions since June 1967.There are roughly 1.5 million people in the West Bank and Gaza.Maisoun told the students that their peers in the territories (18,000 university students alone) must face identity checks and searches upon entering or leaving.“If you don’t have your identity papers you go to prison immediately,” she said.Disruptions and obstacles to education are common in the occupied territories, Maisoun said.Among them are confiscation of all books and reading materials by Israeli soldiers, a ban on printing, regular harrassment of students and faculty, and denial of permits to build classrooms and other buildings “The whole intellectual process has stopped since the uprising.It’s very frustrating,” Maisoun said STUDY ABROAD With a lack of reading materials to use at home, Palestinians travel to east or west Jerusalem to study, often frantically, she added.“It puts us in a situation where we have to strive for literacy.” Moodie and Nasser welcomed Maisoun as a guest, agreeing her visit was educational for the Len-noxville students.Moodie said meeting someone who’s been in an area of conflict helps make the learning material more interesting.He also supported Maisoun's story.“I think it's awful," he said.“I gather Palestinians are among the best educated people in the world, and obviously the Israeli government wants to make it impossible for them to get their education — and that’s criminal." Like Moodie, Nasser also wants the territories’ schools to be reopened.A Middle East veteran, ; Nasser also tried to explain the Israeli position.“From their point of view, the justifieation is (hat they see that the schools have become extremely politicized in the West Bank," he said He said both groups are suffering from the situation: the Palestinians educationally and the Israelis because “it’s hurting their image abroad.” But despite the situation, Maisoun, from the University of Birzeit, remains hopeful and defiant “We Palestinians are determined to be educated.” Cowansville bar owner gets year for peddling coke COWANSVILLE (JM) — Lucien Charron, the former owner of the Chat Rond bar in CowansviUe, has been handed a year in jail for as-sualt, attempted extortion, and possession of 56 grams of cocaine with intent to traffick in Cowansville during June 1987.Charron had earlier pleaded guilty.A pre-sentence report indicated that the former accountant was highly unlikely to become an habitual criminal.Crown attorney Henry Key-serlingk and defence lawyer Daniel Lavallée suggested that the sentence met the requirements of justice.Lavallée requested only that the judge recommend that Charron be detained at the Waterloo Rehabilitation Centre.Keyserlingk suggested the court could impose a three year proba- tion following his release.Charron’s bar manager Gérald Pépin, who earlier pleased to six counts of trafficking in minor amounts of cocaine, and one of defrauding the Quebec welfare system of more than $1000, will probably receive the same sentence on Dec.1.Pépin’s lawyer Daniel Giard said that his client too had no prior record and had admitted his guilt.A-gainst low-level flights: * The Cold War is over’ Cookshire peace activist was arrested in Ottawa march By John Tollefsrud EATON CORNER — In his quest to help stop low-level flights over northeastern Quebec and Labrador, Vilhelmo Vanlenho got arrested this week.Vanlenho, of Eaton Comer, and Alain Dostie of Sherbrooke were among 122 protesters who were arrested and charged with mischief for blocking the entrance to the Department of Defence headquarters in Ottawa on Tuesday.Roughly 350 people, 200 of them from outside Ottawa, were demonstrating in support of Quebec’s Naskapi and Montagnais and Labrador’s Innu Indian people’s effort to end low-level test flights.Describing himself as a peace activist and environmentalist who once worked for Greenpeace, Vanlenho is used to confrontation.And the member of the Lennoxville group Citizens for Nuclear Responsibility said the Ottawa protest was necessary.“I think the human rights of the Innu people are being violated,” Vanlenho said Thursday in an interview at his home.The Innu, Labrador’s Indians, are fighting against test flights by Canadian and other North Atlantic Treaty Organzation (NATO) fighter jets based at CFB Goose Bay.7500 FLIGHTS According to the peace group Project Ploughshares, there were more than 7500 low-level flights over Labrador and Quebec in 1988.The group also says the jets, F-16s and F-18s, routinely fly between 100 and 250 feet above the ground at speeds up to 625 miles per hour.Most of the Naskapi, Montagnais and Innu and their supporters object to the flights because they say the jets’ sonic booms (loud sound waves caused when aircraft cross the sound barrier) drive away their all-important caribou herds.They also denounce the flights because of the tremendous noise pollution and the gasses which pollute their traditional hunting and fishing grounds.“These planes go right over the treetops and with their very hot exhaust they may be damaging the treetops,” said Vanlenho, who lives on welfare.Roughly 10,000 Indians live in the flight area, known to them as Ni-tassinan.They maintain their languages, cultures and hunting ways both in isolated communities like Sheshatshit and alongside other Canadians in towns like Natash-quan and Shefferville.Vanlenho first heard of the grievances against low-level flights from Montagnais women in Malio-tenam, near Seven Islands Before the Ottawa demonstration, Vanlenho took part in a local coalition of support groups in Sherbrooke last Saturday.Money raised at the benefit concert will help the pay for the natives’ legal challenge against the federal government Claiming independence, they argue they never signed over their lands to Canada and should not be subject to Canadian law.SONIC BOOM And while the sonic boom sounds overhead, the Canadian government is nearing a decision which may lower the boom even further.Before Christmas, Ottawa may give the go-ahead for conversion of CFB Goose Bay into a full-fledged NATO base.The plan is expected to cost between $500 million and $800 million ; its backers also claim it would boost employmenty in the northern communities.A NATO base would entail a dramatic leap from the current 7500 flights per year to 40,000 by pilots from countries like Great Britain, the Netherlands and West Germany.Vanlenho said such an increase is the wrong way to go.“We have talked for years and years for peace,” he said.“Now we have to work towards a global and universal disarmament.” Vanlenho agrees that Canada should be able to defend itself but says NATO is “obsolete, the Cold War is over— we want peace in the world.” He blamed the Canadian government for accepting other NATO jets at CFB Goose Bay “The German Luftwaffe (air force), they’ve been kicked out by the peace movement in Germany,” Vanlenho said.“(Canadian Prime Minister Brian) Mulroney came along and said, ‘we’ve got an empty country, come on over.’” PEACE MOVEMENT “It’s kind of paradoxical that the European peace movement is res- ponsible for all these problems in Canada,” Vanlenho said and laughed.A native of the Netherlands, Vanlenho said he owes his life to the Canadian troops who liberated that country in 1945 when he was just four years old.But his deter- mineu peace outlook was also influenced by his father’s two-year-stay in a German concentration camp for being a member of Holland’s underground resistance.“He came out more dead than alive.He was in bad shape.” As a conscientious objector to Holland’s draft, Vanlenho came to Canada in 1963 and has been working for peace ever since.His fight to help the Innu end low-level flights is the latest initiative of many he’s participated in.“We don’t want more people to die in wars, basically that’s we want.” UNJUST practices Gv&'lat)rn anc/Qu* Vilhelmo Vanlenho of Eaton Comer holds up a poster denouncing low- level flights over lands habited by the Innu people of Labrador and northeastern Quebec.The Canadian Red Cross Society CANADIENS DE SHERBROOKE CLUB OPTIMISTE ! DE SHERBROOKE Nov.20 & 21/89, 2:30 pm to 8:30 pm Sherbrooke Armoury, 64 Belvedere S., Sherbrooke 4—The RECORD—Friday, November 17, 1989 #1____ftqi ftfccora The Voice of the Eastern Townships since 1897 Editorial Flippin’ for beer, not democracy When two people are at loggerheads over something — be it buying the round of beer, the coffee or choosing who crosses the rickety bridge first — they’ll sometimes resort to the old tossing of the coin to sort out their dilem m a.Heads or tails, you win or you lose.Depending which side the coin falls on, assuming it’s not a two-headed plug of course, the deciding clunk of metal on the table will effect both individuals involved, and usually them only.But the loser usually appeals the toss, “come on, two out of three, will ya!” and the winner tends to give in, sympathetically feeling that they could very well have been the loser if chance had not been on their side.Then if the original winner loses the ensuing sequence of flips, well.generally he says “Hey, that’s not fair, I won the first time and gave you a second chance.I want one too.” And so the story continues until the new winner accepts that argument, and replies, “Okay then, three out of five.” By this time the game is heating up and often times to maintain the friendship they resolve things in a more equitable manner.“Why don’t you buy the first one and I’U catch the second round?” or “Let’s both cross the rickety bridge at the same time then.” Hmmmm.Wonder what’s going to happen tomorrow at North Hatley town hall after the town secretary throws the slug up into the air to determine who will sit in the mayor’s chair for the next four years.The municipal election of Nov.5 ended in a tie, 173 to 173 according to a Quebec Court judge.And as Quebec law has it, the winner will be decided either by picking a name out of a hat or by flipping a loonie.Although that is one way of deciding things, it doesn’t really work, especially since the decision is based solely on luck and will affect all the townspeople, not just the two men involved.The mayoralty candidates are not flipping for beer here; they are going to decide who will administer the town.If every citizen in North Hatley had voted, and a second vote would most probably give the same results, then perhaps one would have to admit there is no other way to choose the new mayor.however, that is not the case.Only half the eligible voters cast their ballots so there is room for a new total.Also, an odd number of votes were cast in the election—351 — but that deciding ballot was rejected by the judge on the grounds that the chief returning officer forgot to sign it.Since many residents feel this election is very important to North Hatley — as the era of economic development continues in the Eastern Townships — a new election should be called.And if one is, hopefully this time taxpayers will be more responsible with their democracy and get out there to make a choice.ANN MCLAUGHLIN Letters MP Côté speaks on pollution Dear Mr.Editor: In reference to my letter dated 23 October 1989 to Mr.Yvon Côté, M.P., Richmond Wolfe.I received a response (enclosed) on the 27 October 1989.In all fairness to the Honourable Member, I am forwarding you a copy.K.A.BLEMINGS, Amherstview, Ontario Mr.K.A.Blemings 63 Amherst Drive Amherstview (Ont.) K7N 1H6 Dear Mr.Blemings: I would like to thank you for taking time to write and I trust that the following responses will satisfy your concerns.There is little doubt that acid rain is at the top of the list of thorny environmental problems that we face in our region.Although it is certain that the townships have not been spared its ill effects, it appears that our maple forests have also been adversely affected by other factors as well.Lagging, residential and commercial development, questionable sap gathering procedures and even a late spring freeze in 1981, have all been advanced as reasons for decline.On the positive side maple producers have had two very good years on 88 and 89, to the point where they have been unable to market their full production.Measures are now being taken to improve marketing facilities in order to dispose of present and future overproduction.Various proposals to save and replant maple trees have recently been submitted to our office and are presently under serious consideration.Most importantly, there is a growing consensus that despite acid rain being an international problem, various local solutions exist and can be imple- mented to hold the line or further destruction of maple trees.We find it ironic that the U.S.environmental protection agency finds it necessary to ban Asbestos products, which have been considerably improved lately, yet, fails to enact truly effective acid rain controls to ward off potential future damage to the economies and popular health of both Canada and the U.S.North East.As for the clean up of the St-Francis and its tributaries, it’s a pleasure to report that concrete measure are in effect.Raw sewage dumping by residential owners has all but ceased, and Sherbrooke will have its sewage treatment plant within two years.Cascades of East Angus lane agreed to a multi-million dollar clean up and Kruger in Brompton are at this time constructing a new highteck installation to handle their wastes.As well, you are probably aware that the new Windsor Domtar plant is now placed a mile or so from the river and is far less polluting than the precious installation.Finally, conservation groups such as Committee Charmes, l’Association de Ensemencement de la Watopeka, l’Association pour la Préservation du Lac Memphrémagog, and many more have all benefitted from federal, provincial and private funding.These groups are reporting positive results in water quality in their respective areas.I do not want to appear over exuberant.I’m well aware that there’s a long way to go before the St-Francis river is completely pollution free.But, it is encouraging to see that pollution awareness is now guiding the actions of the general public environmental groups, government and industry.Yours truly, YVON COTE, M.P.Richmond-Wolfe Remembering the trains Dear Sir: What I have written in this piece which lam including is mainly nostalgia, but I could say much about the way in which the railways were allowed to f al I by the wayside.No attempt was made by C.N.or C.P.to compete with buses and trucks when they first became a threat.Trains often did not run on schedules which were convenient for passengers.I remember it took me six hours to go from Knowlton to Coati-cook, which was fifty miles by road.I had to change trains twice, and in Sherbrooke I had also to change stations.Small buses or even taxis could have been introduced by the railways to make train travel easier.No one denies that it is more comfortable to travel by train, but so often more convenient to reach by bus.I certainly do not think that the public is to blame for the situation.One of the most delightful trips I ever took by train was last Christmas from Ottawa to Toronto.It was speedy — the train made only four stops.Passengers were given breakfast packages, hot tea or coffee, even a mid-morning bite, and soft drinks.How much better was this than the former cold sandwiches which we bought at a counter, and which ran out before everyone was served.But I fear this improvement came too late to save railway travel.There are many solidly financial reasons why the railways should be retained buy these have been pointed out by others, one being Allan McCourt of Richmond.The lines I have written are mainly one person’s memories of a part of Canada which is being lost.Yours very truly, R.JEAN MILLER Knowlton RAILWAY TRAVEL Can it be possible that the era of railway travel is over?How well I remember those trains of my youth! The milk train at 7, The noon train at 1, The afternoon train at 2:15, The mail train at 11 p.m.We punctuated our days by their whistles.There were as much a part of our lives as breakfast, dinner, and supper, as going to school in the morning, or attending church on Sundays.When I was young I did not realize that our trains ran on a historic route.We were on the Montreal - Portland Line to connect Montreal to an ice-free port, one of the first rail lines built in Canada.But to us in Coaticook it was just “our trains going through”.I never went farther south than Dixville, five miles away.That was the day in April when our school had a sugaring-off at Falconer’s.The train graciously stopped for all of us to get off at Falconer’s crossing, but we older ones stayed on till Dixville.We had to walk back, but proved we were grown-up enough to do it.Can you imagine the C.N.R.stopping for a bunch of kids?A railway with a heart! Our trains took us north to Sherbrooke for shopping or just fun trips.But came the day we went all the way to Montreal to enroll in college.Gladly did we come home again at Christmas on the dear old C.N.R.Those trains were a part of our lives, a very integral part.We never dreamed that some day we’d lose them.And now are they all to go?Coaticook grew up because of those trains.Bamston and Barford were settled first, but when the trains started coming through industry grew up and so did Coaticook.Buses and trucks are not nearly as romantic as trains, but Mulroney says of our trains, “Use them or lose them”.So practical we must be; and lonely whistles in the night do not pay the bills, says he.So from now on the whistles may be only in our dreams and in our memories of by-gone days.And this is progress! Or is it?R.JEAN MILLER, Knowlton Pulp industry moves to clean up its act MONTREAL (CP) — Quebec’s major pulp-and-paper manufacturers announced Wednesday a policy promoting co-operation between the industry and government in cleaning up pollution in the province’s rivers and protecting its forests.The policy is also designed to inform the public of progress made in these areas.“The industry is committed to continuing its efforts to identify the impact of manufacturing plants and woodlands operations on the environment, and to solving any environmental problems,” said Guy Dufresne, chairman of the Quebec Forest Industries Association.Dufresne, chief executive of Montreal based Kruger Inc., said the industry has cleaned up its act considerably in the last 25 years.For example, for every tonne of paper produced in Quebec in 1986 — the most recent year for which data is available — there were about 12 kilograms of solid waste discharged.That compares with 24 kilograms a tonne in 1979 and 136 kilograms in 1959.But Dufresne and other industry executives could not offer specific goals for mill-waste emissions in coming years.“It depends entirely on where a mill is located and the products it produces,” said Andre Fortier, senior vice-president in charge of Quebec operations for Noranda Inc.However the policy statement directs pulp and paper companies operating in Quebec to “apply sound management practices to advance environmental protection and minimize environmental impact.” In addition, new mills will be built with environmental protection as a primary concern, said Fortier.“When we build or alter facilities, we will be doing so with the environment in mind .to avoid having to make changes later on,” Fortier said.“We want to be ahead of the game.” Yet, profitability won’t take a back seat to environmental protection, Dufresne said.“Decisions will continue to be made based on the point of view of (spurring) the industry’s growth,” he said.“We want to participate in environmental protection, but there will have to be some choices made." Dufresne said the forest-products industry accounts for approximately half of the capital invested in Quebec industry, excluding the Montreal region.Including Montreal, the portion is 28 per cent, he said.Forcing the industry to make drastic changes too quickly would thus handicap the Quebec economy as a whole, Dufresne said.“One has to ask what is technically feasible and what price is the public willing to pay” in terms of jobs and other economic activity, he said.yti WÆ Commonwealth countries discuss their health MELBOURNE.Australia (CP) — When it comes to health issues, Canada is concerned about an aging population, Britain about heart disease while less developed countries struggle with basics like having clean water and effective sewage disposal.These and other problems were discussed this week at the Commonwealth health ministers conference attended by officials from 43 countries, including Canada.Participants met in closed sessions today and are to issue a final communique on Friday.Canada's paper, presented at the conference by Peter Glynn, assistant deputy minister of health and welfare, identified an aging population as one of the most pressing problems.It said 10 per cent of Canada’s population was over 65 years old in 1980 and this was expected to double over the next 30 years.Already, 35 to 40 per cent of the national health budget is being spent on caring for the elderly, it said.The key health problem for Britain is the high number of heart disease, which was costing the country the equivalent of about $920 million a year.Bangladesh laments that despite medical advances in the developed world, its greatest concerns are still communicable diseases and malnutrition.“It is a pity that despite the means to control these communicable diseases, which are also preventable and well within the control of gover- nments in the developed world, t benedits did not trickle down to t greater masses of human populati in the developing countries,” its ] per said.African countries like Malawi a Botswana said improvements simple things like having clean wal and sewage disposal would vastly i prove the health of their people.Malawi said 80 per cent of ; sickness in developing countries caused by dirty water and inadequi sewage facilities. The RECORD—Friday, November 17, 19l»-5 History 1____Ihcj KBCOra The third quarter century Oompton Township: M.H.Cochrane and the West “There are no mountainous elevations in Compton Township,” said Belden's Atlas: “the land is high and rolling, timbered with hardwood.The few swamps and rocky wastes are mostly at the east.” “The Coaticook valley is broad and fertile, but subject to heavy spring floods.Salmon River (the less) crosses the northeast corner: Moe’s River runs from the south-east quite through the central part of the township, which, agriculturally, is considered the best in the District.” “Compton village,” said the History of Compton County, “is the centre of one of the best farming sections of Canada.” HILLHURST Matthew Henry Cochrane was bom in Compton in 1823, son of an Irish immigrant who’d done well for himself as merchant, farmer and cattle breeder.Young Matthew clerked in Kennedy’s store for a while and, at 18, was sent to Massachusettes to learn the leather trade.At 25, he married Cynthia Maria, daughter of Luke Whitney of Lowell, Massachusetts.At 30, he brought her back to Quebec and became junior partner with Samuel Greeley Smith in a boot and shoe factory in Montreal called Smith & Cochrane.At 40, he began building the mammoth stock-breeding farm that became famous as “Hillhurst”.Samuel Greenley Smith was also a Compton lad, two years younger than Cochrane, son of Joseph Smith who came from Gilman-town, New Hampshire, in 1808 as a pioneer to clear the forest and build his farm in Compton Township.Joseph built the first frame house and was a leader of the community.When Compton’s municipal records begin, August 23, 1841, he was appointed ‘Surveyor of Highways’.The Smith homestead, ‘Ingle-side’ (Range 7, Lot 12) was next to ‘Hillhurst’ (Range 7, Lot 11) and began stock-breeding about the same time but Samuel Greeley Smith had the bad luck to die in 1868 at the age of 43.Cochrane fashioned a new partnership with his son-in-law, Charles Cassils, and Cochrane, Cassils & Co.soon had some 300 employees doing half-a-million dollars worth of business a year as one of the largest such firms in all Canada.ROSEDALE Cochrane returned to his first love, farming, in 1864 and purchased the farm next to the home place.That developed over time into “1600 acres, largely rolling land and almost in one block, with brooks and springs furnishing an abundance of good water.A deep gravelly loam is the prevailing soil, admirably adapted to the growth of spring wheat, turnips, grass, oats, barley, etc., the first three being the leading crops ; com is also raised.” The following year, he began a large cheese factory in Compton village and in the year of Confederation, imported from Great Britain a champion shorthorn cow, ‘Rosedale’, along with a choice selection of Southdown, Cotswold, Leicester and Lincoln sheep, Suffolk horses and Berkshire hogs.This was a pioneer effort at improving the new country’s breeding stock and the Canadian Biographical Dictionary waxed rhapsodic : NO BOOTH BULL “Rosedale was a daughter of Booth’s Valsco and Rosy, by Mas- ter Belleville, and was bred by Lady Pigot.Our subject (Cochrane) had no Booth bull, and he had Rosedale crossed with the 11th Duke of Thomdale, a Duchess bull, which he had just purchased for $3,000.Her first calf, after coming into Mr.Cochrane’s hands, a heifer, was sold, when a year old, to an Illinois stock-breeder for $3,500.“The next year Mr.Cochrane paid 1,000 guineas for Duchess 97th, by the 3rd Duke of Wharfdale, of the noted Wetherly herd.The price which he paid for her, is said to be the highest at that time ever paid for a female short-horn.“At the same time, among other cattle, Mr.Cochrane also bought for 250 guineas, a pure Booth animal of striking beauty, she being by Baron Booth, a prize winner, and sire of prize winners.” In 1870, Cochrane paid $60,000 for forty shorthorns, a flock of Cotswold sheep and Berkshire pigs.All this elegant British aristocracy of striking beauty could not be ignored and Sir John A.Macdonald and Lord Dufferin appointed him to the senate in 1872.LADY DUFFERIN Sir John visited ‘Hillhurst’ on an electioneering swing through the Townships in 1877 and Lord and Lady Dufferin came on a farewell tour the following year.The charming Countess kept a journal and wrote of Senator Cochrane : “He is one of those people who get a thousand pounds for a calf, a hundred pounds for a pig, etc.We have been out all the morning examining prize cattle.First we inspected calves and bulls and pigs, and then we left the farmyard and drove about the fields looking at cows and Shetland ponies.“There is a cow here called the Tenth Duchess of Airdie, which has made great sums of money.The views over the country are quite magnificent.I am glad we did not leave Canada without seeing this district.” A reporter assigned to follow the Governor General for the Montreal Gazette, went into more detail: FAMOUS “The immense barns in which Senator Cochrane’s most valuable stock are raised and housed, comprise substantial structures, clean and neat in the interior as the deck of a British man-o’-war.“The Ayreshire herd of cows was browsing in a field opposite the mansion while in a large field near the sugar bush were a lot of different breeds.The bulls — famous the Dominion over — were kept in stables during the day and were of all ages.“The Third Duke of Oneida is a splendid animal and the fiery red Duke of Oxford showed himself to be possess of some spirit.She- Bernard Epps tland ponies.were herded in a part of the farm to the rear of the mansion.” W.M.BURPEE Cochrane may have set the pace for Compton’s agricultural community but he was far from alone.That broad river valley enriched by silt and gravel left by the ice age ten thousand years ago attracted the ‘Vermont and Canada Nurseries’ of W.M.Burpee & Co., established in 1857 with main offices at Beebe Plain and their ‘Compton Branch’ at Richby.They specialized in developing hardy varieties of fruit trees and sold them all over the Dominion.Guy Carr’s ‘Maple Ridge Farm’ covered 400 acres west of the Coaticook.He built the first herd of purebred Canadian cattle in the country, won hundreds of awards and reared ‘Trixie’, butterfat champion of the southern states.Charles Crossen’s ‘Sunny Braes’ raised Herefords, Clydesdales and Sheltland ponies.Joseph Blossom (Range 6, Lot 21) specialized in Standardbred horses.STOOD HIGH The Business and Farmer’s Directory for 1888-89 said; “The principal business of Compton has for a long time been the cattle, to which butter and other farm products may now be added.Its reputation for fancy cattle has for years stood high — horses too receiving great attention, the best breeds for farm purposes of all kinds being well represented at the different leading establishments.“Some of the best farms in the Dominion encircle the town and distinguish the township.The Hon.Mr.Cochrane’s stock farm includes 1400 acres all in a block, and mainly consisting of a fertile ridge, famous for its stock and crops to this date.S.J.Pomroy’s farm lies mainly in the village and vicinity, and is noted also for extent, fertility and production of superior stock and crops.His strength and skill have been mainly devoted to horses and in improving the breeds, as well as introducing new sorts well suited to our climate.” POMROY Selah J.Pomroy (Range 5, Lot 17) was the son of Benjamin and Lucy Lee and two years younger than Cochrane.He built the first silo and the first modem a» „ bam in the county, embraced the latest advances in machinery — a* had his father — and bought high-class stallions to improve his horses.He died in 1891.In 1893, the provincial government established a model farm on the old Benjamin Hitchcock place (Range 6, Lot 13).Robert Robertson was brought in from Château-guay as manager and bought the old Pomroy homestead.Herbert Dudley Smith, son of Samuel Greeley, Cochrane’s old partner, was only a year old when his father died.He studied at Bishop's College and Lorette University near Edinburgh, then toured the world before settling down at ‘In-gleside’ to devote himself to scientific agriculture.The Farmer's Advocate said of it; PALATIAL “On an elevation overlooking a fertile valley and a large tract of surrounding country is erected a palatial residence, and close by are the comfortable cattle bams, and a grandly furnished large horse stable splendidly fitted in the most convenient and approved style.For some years past the breeding of Hereford cattle has been a special feature on this farm, and a herd of unusual excellence has been established, without doubt the finest herd of this breed in Canada at the present time.“In the horse stables, we saw a fine pair of English thoroughbrads, and a hackney mare, ‘Fairy’.Improved Yorkshires and Tam-worths are also included in the stock at Ingleside.” ALBERTA But Senator Cochrane’s contribution to Canada's agriculture was not yet over.In Parliament, he was largely responsible for the Federal Grazing Lands policy which gra.ted leases up to 100,000 acres of Dominion Lands.He led a group of Eastern capitalists, incorporated as the Cochrane Ranche Company Limited, that leased 100,000 acres just west of Fort Calgary for one cent per acre per year.The buffalo herds were dying out.Meat was needed to feed the Nort West Mounted Police at Fort Calgary, the Indians on the Stoney and Sarcee Reservations, the crews building the Canadian Pacific Railway and the influx of settlers expected to follow.The Cochrane Ranche was the first of the great cattle companies in the west and had the pick of the land.It chose a tract straddling the proposed route of the railway and abutting both reservations with good agricultural land along the Bow River and excellent grazing in the foothills.In the fall of 1881, 6800 head of cattle were driven up from Montana but they were driven hard to arrive before the first snows fell and many died on the way.Others were so weakened that they could not survive an unusually severe winter and a thousand were dead by spring.SOUTH In 1882, another 4290 were driven up from the States but a winter even worsed than the first destroyed 3000 by the spring of 1883.The Cochrane Ranche Company consequently took a new lease on milder lands further south between the Oldman and Waterton RANCHE I_________________ ] CO The Cochrane Ranche was the first of the great cattle 1 1 r> im » 7 A group of wealthy hunters at Cochrane’s British American Ranche Company.Rivers and relocated the surviving herd that summer.The old lease along the Bow was reincorporated as the British American Ranche Company, with Cochrane remaining president, and restocked with horses.The railway arrived that year and made the ranch accessible to wealthy Europeans and Easterners eager to hunt in the foothills, play cowboy and sample the legendary west.In 1884, 8000 sheep were brought in to graze the hills.But the completion of the CPR and the consequent boom of Calgary forced the government to open the leased lands to settlers.The horses were moved south in 1888, the sheep and 41,000 acres offered up for sale.Matthew Henry Cochrane died at his Compton home on August 12, 1903, in his 80th year, leaving an estate worth more than a million dollars, a widow, three sons and seven daughters.James A.Cochrane, his eldest son, took over ‘Hillhurst’ and became a prominent citizen in the Townships.Ernest, his youngest son, was the last manager of the British American Ranche Company and the place where the bunkhouses stood was made a provincial historic park in 1977.The town that grew there is still called Cochrane and is now a bedroom community for Calgary.Further south, the Cochrane Ranche Company sold 106,500 acres in 1906 to the Mormon church.*¦ 6—The RECORD—Friday, November 17, 1989 Living fleconl Canada could be getting more nuclear waste.Check it out Send

Mr.Rosaire Desbiens Signed: Mrs.Pierrette Cloutier, Election president CANADA Province de Québec Ville de Lennoxville November 13th, 1989 As required by Articles 474.1 and following of the Cities and Towns Act, I must give you the financial situation of the Municipality.My report consists of the following; I.- Financial Statements for 1988: Receipts: Taxes 2 214297$ In-lieu of taxes 784758$ Services rendered to other municipalities 63194$ Other services rendered 21932 $ Miscellaneous revenues from local sources 326 229 $ Restricted transfers 270677$ Surplus allocation 216708$ FAL

March 23rd, 1989, the Auditors of the Municipality presented their 1988 audited report.3 -Preliminary Indications of the Financial Results for 1989: Foreseen revenues and expenditures lead us to believe that there will be a small excess of revenues over expenditures for the present year.4.-General Orientation of our 1990 Budget: The 1990 Budget is presently being prepared and should be approved by the Council in December 1989.All efforts will be made to keep the tax rate close to the inflation rate.5.- Last Three-Year Capital Expenditure Programme: The last 1989-90-91 Programme consisted of the following expenses: 1989 238 300$ 1990 1196000$ 1991 1141000$ 6 - The Next Three-Year Capital Expenditure Programme: Despite the large number of important projects that the Town Council has to consider within the next Three-Year Capital Expenditure Programme, we have to give priority to our objective to reduce the Town's debt service.Indeed, it is becoming important, at this time, to respect the capitalization capability of the Municipality, in order to avoid signing away our Citizens' ability to pay.7 - Remuneration of Elected Members of the Council: In accordance with By-Law No.366-01 regarding the remuneration of the Mayor and Councillors of the Ville de Lennoxville presently in force, I would like to specify that in 1989, the salary of the Mayor of the Ville de

teams remain in Cup derby By Grant Kerr (CP) — Historians will be scrambling for the record books this weekend should the unexpected occur again in the CFL playoffs.It was a year ago, remember, when two third-place teams advanced to the Grey Cup by upsetting the divisional champions on home turf.Winnipeg went on to capture the CFL championship by a point over the B.C.Lions.The Blue Bombers can earn another Grey Cup berth with a victory Sunday in Hamilton.The East Division final between the 12 6 Tiger-Cats and Winnipeg, 7-11, is not a repeat of 1988, but the scenario is somewhat similar.The Bombers surprised the Toronto Argos a year ago and believe they can pull off the sting again on Hamilton.In the West, the third-place Saskatchewan Roughriders, 9-9, take on the powerful Edmonton Eskimos, 16-2 and a perfect 9-0 at home.Prior to last year, the last time third-place teams emerged as playoff winners was in 1970.The Montreal Alouettes beat the Calgary Stampeders by 13 points in the title game that year after Montreal had a 7-6-1 in league play.WINNIPEG AT HAMILTON The Bombers have put their faith behind scrambling quarterback Lee Saltz after the late-season release of Sean Salisbury.Winnipeg beat Toronto 30-7 in the eastern semifinal when the Bombers’ most productive play was the quarterback draw.That won’t be enough offence against the aggressive Hamilton defence.Hamilton also made a quarterback change late in the season.Backup Todd Dillon took over from Mike Kerrigan (sore shoulder) and didn’t miss a beat.Dillon is a career backup — he played behind Jim Kelly in the United States Football League — but has blossomed with the Ticats.Running back Derrick McAdoo keys the Hamilton offence, along with receiver Tony Champion.Winnipeg’s defence responded last week with the return of linebacker James (Wild) West, who had an interception and quarterback sack.The Bombers must pressure Dillon if they are to mask a weak secondary prone to big plays.The Ticats, 7-2 at home, will miss injured defensive end Rod Skill-man, but can still count on Mike Walker from the inside and Grover Covington on the outside.Corner-back Lance Shields has the key assignment in covering Bomber wi-deout James Murphy.Prediction: Hamilton by four points.SASK.AT EDMONTON The Roughriders were one of two teams to defeat Edmonton in league play, winning 48-35 at home Sept.17.Since then the Esks have won seven straight, including a 49-17 pounding of the Roughies two weeks ago.Saskatchewan can strike quickly on offence when Kent Austin gets time to throw.He’ll work from the shotgun formation and hope wide receiver Don Narcisse can escape cornerback Stanley Blair.The Roughrider defence thrives on the pass rush, getting six sacks last week in the semifinal win over Calgary, 33-26.The hero of that comeback was reserve running back Brian Walling who scored on a 50-yard draw late in the fourth quarter.The Edmonton defence won’t be so accomodating on the frozen turf of Commonwealth Stadium.Eskimo quarterback Tracy Ham, who ran for more than 1,000 yards this year, keeps defenders back on their heels because of the run threat.He also threw 30 touchdown passes when defences overplayed the run.Look for tailback Reggie Taylor, the league’s leading rusher with 1,503 yards, to negate the Saskatchewan pass rush.Prediction: Edmonton by more than seven points.Waterloo’s Knight named coach of the year By Stephen Ewart TORONTO (CP) — There’s something special about a guy who takes on a football team in the midst of a 33-game losing streak, has a heart attack the first time he sees them play, and takes them to the playoffs a year later.Dave (Tuffy) Knight is that guy and the Canadian Interuniversity Athletic Union named him its coach of the year on Thursday.“I wasn’t really expecting this,” Knight joked at a luncheon hosted by the Canadian Football League.“I thought I deserved it, but I wasn’t really expecting it.” Knight’s Waterloo Warriors posted a 4-3 record in the Ontario Universities Athletic Association this year before dropping a playoff game to the Western Mustangs.Western plays the Saskatchewan Huskies for the Vanier Cup on Sa- turday.Knight, 53, won the Frank Tindall Award twice while coaching the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks.He left them to join the Toronto Argos in 1985 but returned to college ranks three years later.COACH SIDELINED The mild heart attack in the 1988 season opener kept him off the sidelines until this fall and Knight admits it’s forced him to rely on his assistants much more than in the past.“Probably the key is that fact that the coaching staff worked hard but the kids worked extremely hard,” he said with the lazy drawl of his native West Virginia.“The turn around was when they started to believe that they could compete in the OUAA and that was the most difficult thing to turn around.” The All-Canadians were also an- nounced and the first team is led by two-time Hec Crighton Trophy winner Chris Flynn, a quarterback with St.Mary’s.The running backs are Richard Thompson of Mount Allison and Calary’s J.P.Izquierdo.St.Mary’s Bill Scollard is the slot back while the wide receivers are Jock Climie of Queen’s and Dave Brown of Calgary.The tight end is Western’s Tiber Ribi.The offensive line has Chris Gioskos of Ottawa and Calgary’s Mike Pavelec at tackle while guards are Rob Godley of Western and Cam Sackschewsky of Calgary.The centre is Wilfrid Laurier’s Brian Beckles.HANNEM CHOSEN The defence includes sophomore linebacker Anthony Hannem of Acadia.The Sydney, N.S., native is the only player bom in the Mari- times to be selected as an All-Canadian.“We didn’t have any high school football in Cape Breton so I had to move to Halifax when 1 was 16,” said Hannem, 20.“I hope this honor I received will help raise the interest there and I understand UCCB (University College of Cape Breton) is trying to have team in our league so maybe they’ll start playing in high school.” The other linebackers are Mark Singer of Alberta, Ottawa’s Gord Weber and John O’Brien of York.The linemen are Nick La Valle of Windsor, Rob Dutton of Saskatchewan, Wilfrid Laurier's BUI Madden and Alberta’s Jim CleUand.The defensive backs are Trent Brown of Alberta, Dan Murphy of Acadia, Phil Guebert of Saskatchewan and Waterloo’s Richard Chen.Argos dump coach following playoff defeat By Steve McAllister TORONTO (CP) - The Toronto Argonauts ended a week of speculation Thursday by announcing that BobO’BiUovichhad been fired as head coach and general manager of the Canadian FootbaU League club.Argonauts’ president Ralph Sa-zio said O’Billovich, 49, had “severed all ties” with the footbaU club.There had been reports that O’BU-lovich would be asked to remain as general manager but Sazio said no discussions were held between the two men regarding that post.“He came into the office this morning and expressed no interest in anything else,” said Sazio, who hired O’Billovich in December 1981.“He wants to remain in coaching ” Sazio said the club will hire a new general manager before deciding on a coaching replacement.He spoke with the club’s assistant coaches Thursday and said they would be considered to replace O'Billovich if they’re interested.O’Billovich, reached at his home in Mississauga, Ont., offered little comment on his departure.“After thinking about it, I’m doing what’s best for Obie and his family,” he said.WINNINGEST COACH O'Billovich is the winningest coach in Argo history with a regular-season record of 78-55-3 and has directed the club to five first-place East Division finishes and three Grey Cup berths in the ’80s.Toronto was beaten by Edmonton 32-16 in the 1982 Grey Cup.But 12 months later, the Argos won their first league title in 31 years by defeating the B.C.Lions 18-17.Toronto returned to the Grey Cup in 1987, but lost a 38-36 thriller to the Eskimos in what some observers termed one of the best finales in CFL history.The Argos rolled to a 14-4 record in 1988 but were upset by Winnipeg in the Eastern final.O’Billovich’s future in Toronto became tenuous this season as the Argos stumbled to a 7-11 record during the regular season, despite having almost the same cast as the previous year.Observers called the Toronto offence predictable and unimaginative as the club scored the fewest points in the eight-team league.There also were questions about O’Billovich’s use of personnel, including a decision to sit out all-star slotback Darrell Smith for last Sunday’s Eastern semifinal.The Argos were dumped 30-7 by Winnipeg in front of the smallest home crowd of the season, aU but spelling the coach’s demise.Tyson knockouts possible Edmonton fight EDMONTON (CP) — Home Box Office and promoter Don King have thrown what may be the knockout punch for a world heavyweight boxing championship bout in Edmonton between Mike Tyson and Donovan (Razor) Ruddock.Local promoter Garry Stevenson said Thursday that HBO, which televises Tyson’s fights, told him Wednesday by phone had about 45 minutes to resolve outstanding matters for the fight to go ahead.Unable to contact vacationing financial backer Ed Bean, Stevenson was told by HBO it could not proceed with a Jan.20 date for the bout because of a printing deadline for its January program schedule.“The thing that bugs me now is that all the boobirds in Toronto will come out again because they may have been right,” Stevenson told a news conference.“It’s a real burr in the saddle.” He was referring to comments by Toronto promoter Irv Unger-man and others that Edmonton could never stage a fight of this magnitude.FIGHT PUT OFF Stevenson, a tall, smiling man who looked haggard, said King — Tyson’s promoter — supported the TV network and the fight has again been put off indefinitely.He said he couldn’t explain why neither King nor HBO official Seth Abraham told him about the scheduling deadline earlier.In any event, he said, other complications would have probably put the fight off.The bout was originally scheduled for Nov.18 — this Saturday — but was postponed tentatively to Jan.20 after Tyson caught a virus that affected his breathing and gave him chest pains.Stevenson said he raised the possibility during the conference call of the fight being held Feb.10 and he has booked the Northlands Coliseum for that date.But he added King raised concerns it could conflict with Tyson's bout in February with James (Buster) Douglas in Tokyo.STILL OPTIMIST He said he now expects many of the 10,000 people who bought tickets to the fight will run for refunds.However, he added he still believes there’s a 70-per-cent chance Tyson will fight Ruddock in Edmonton within the year.“I believe Don King recognizes a moral and ethical, if not legal, obligation to bring Mike Tyson to Edmonton,” said Stevenson.“I hope it’s Razor Ruddock he fights here because I think he’s the fighter with the best chance of bea- ting Tyson at this time.” Staging the fight in Edmonton has been a struggle from the start as an inexperienced promoter and a group of Edmonton businessmen got together to do what the boxing establishment in Central Canada said was impossible.Bean, owner of the Crystal Glass chain, became the major backer after he read in a Toronto newspaper that Edmonton could never stage such an event.Tough negotiations — along with a reluctance in United States fight circles to spend big money putting on fights that lasted only a few rounds — landed Tyson and King in Edmonton.The undisputed world heavyweight king showed up in the city as scheduled about a month before the Nov.18 date but within days became too ill to train.University players hoping to play in CFL By Craig Meister HALIFAX (CP)— Many are called but few are chosen.Every fall, some 1,200 men wrapped in padded armor do battle in Canadian university football with many hoping to one day play in the Canadian Football League.And every summer, the majority of those lucky enough to have been drafted by CFL teams or invited to training camp don’t make the grade.Bill Scollard knows how difficult the jump is.“It’s a massive leap,” Scollard, 25, said in an interview from his Burlington, Ont., home.“It really is.” Last year, the versatile St.Mary’s Huskies star earned allconference honors in the Atlantic Universities Athletic Association as both a slotback (23 receptions, 422 yards, four touchdowns) and as a punter averaging 37.6 yards.His performance caught the eye of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, who selected him 56th overall in this year’s draft.Scollard stayed with the team throughout training camp and saw limited action as a receiver in one exhibition game against the Ottawa Rough Riders.But when the team trimmed its roster, the five-foot-11, 185-pounder was among the final cuts.WASN’T TOUGH “Physically, the Ticats’ camp wasn’t nearly as tough as St.Mary's," he said, “but mentally, you were concentrating all the time.You couldn’t afford to make mistakes.” Last year, Scollard saw action in six positions.When Chris Flynn, last year’s Hec Crighton Award winner, mis- sed the 1988 Vanier Cup because of a concussion, Scollard replaced him at quarterback.The Calgary Dinosaurs won the game 52-23 but St.Mary’s jack-of-all-trades established a Canadian Interuniversity Athletic Union record for most pass attempts and completions in a Vanier Cup game.But even for a talented athlete like Scollard, the odds of making the CFL aren’t great.A total of 64 players were drafted in the league's Canadian college draft on Feb.25.Only 13 made it to the opening day rosters, although some remain on practice rosters.Greg Fulton, secretary-treasurer of the CFL, said a major hurdle facing many Canadian college players is size.“There's a lot of kids out there that are five foot six and are good college football players but they don’t stand much chance (in the CFL),” he said in an interview from Toronto.“They'd get killed.” SPEED IMPORTANT Bob Krouse, a former Ticat linebacker and now the team’s director of Canadian personnel, said another factor that can make or break a pro hopeful is speed.He uses Scollard as an example.“Bill’s a multi-talented, good athlete but doesn’t have the speed that’s going to break it for him (at wide receiver or slotback), I don't believe — unless he really works at it,” Krouse said in interview from Grimsby, Ont.Krouse said it all boils down to money.Canadian universities don’t have the budgets their American counterparts do and as a result can't produce as many quality players.Cherish nature with a black duck stamp The Quebec Wildlife Foundation has announced the release of its second conservation stamp.This year’s stamp depicts two black ducks in their natural spring habitat.The picture was taken from Claudio d’Angelo’s mangnificant work entitled Canard Noir.The picture was unveiled last May by Prince Philip, the Duke of Edingbourg.A photo—lithograph of the

Fair Princess.“After he negotiates his next contract, it might become the S.S.Saberhagen,” joked Kansas City Royals manager John Wathan.Greater rewards indeed may lie ahead for the Kansas City righthander who, at age 25, led the major leagues with a 23-6 record and a 2.16 eamed-run average.As a 21-year-old in 1984, Saberhagen was the youngest winner ever in the American League.Now as a multiple winner of pitching’s top honor, he joins such greats as Sandy Koufax, Bob Gibson and Tom Seaver.Saberhagen was named first on 27 of 28 ballots cast by members of the Baseball Writers Association of America.Results were announced Wednesday.“It’s very gratifying to know that many people thought 1 pitched that well,” Sagerhagen said via a conference call.Oakland Athletics’s righthander Dave Stewart, the World Series MVP and sentimental, got the other first-place vote.Mike Moore, his Oakland teammate, was third with 10 points, followed by Bert Blyleven of the California Angels with nine and Nolan Ryan of the Texas Rangers with five.Saberhagen’s 1985 Cy Young was accompanied by a World Series MVP award when the Royals beat the St.Louis Cardinals, which made, he said, for “a more magical year.” “All the individual awards aren’t as exciting as the team achievements,” he said.“The MVPs, Cy Young, the batting title, I don’t think any of them compare.” Stewart must wonder what he can do to win even one Cy Young.The Oakland ace was shut out a third straight year despite being the only pitcher in the major leagues to reach 20 victories in each of the last three years.OFFERS A DEAL If Stewart is envious of his Cy Young, Saberhagen might make him a deal.“I’d trade for his World Series championship,” Saberhagen said.“Sure.I’d take a World Series championsip any time.“There is nothing like the excitement that you have, knowing you are the best for that particular year.There is nothing like being the World Series champion.” Saberhagen’s first Cy Young in 1985 was followed by a disappointing 7-12 record in 1986.But he vows to make sure history does not repeat itself.“I was awful young,” he said.“I didn’t know that much about success.But I think I’ve learned from the success I had in 1985.“I’m not going to go out and run myself ragged this winter.I know what I have to do to get ready for the upcoming season and that’s what I’m going to do.” Jeff Ballard of the Baltimore Orioles, Dennis Eckersley of Oakland and Gregg Olson of Baltimore, the AL Rookie of the Year, got three points each in the balloting and Jeff Russell of Texas got one.Saberhagen also led led the majors in winning percentage (.793), complete games (12) and innings (262 1-3).He threw four shutouts, three three-hitters and two four-hitters.The Royals were 29-6 in Saberha gen’s starts and he beat every club in the league at least once.From May 24 through the end of the season, he was 20-2.He allowed more than three earned runs just three times in 35 starts and not once in his final 14 In his six losses, the Royals were shut out three times and scored one run twice Saberhagen is 92-61 in six seasons with Kansas City.He was 20-6 in 1985, then went on to pitch two complete games against the Cardi nais in the World Series T. Sports The RECORD— Friday, November 17, #¦___««I ixecarü he Crusaders hope hard work will mean success this year Goodwin preapres for his 17th season with heart and hustle.By Bruce Macfarlane LENNOXVILLE — The BCS Crusaders are going to be banking on heart and hustle to be enough during the 1989-90 ETIAC senior boys hockey season.Crusaders’ head coach Cliff Goodwin believes the keenness of his players will make up for an admitted lack of skill and help keep his team competitive.“We don’t have a lot of skill,” said Goodwin.“But we got some kids that are pretty keen, that want to work and want to hustle.“I think if they find the right flight pattern,” he said, “we will be set.” Setting the flight plan for the Crusaders will be eight veteran players, four forwards, three defencemen and a goaltender.Before the Goodwin express takes off for the ETIAC title, however, there is a temporary grounding.Skillfull forward Euan Lili-ford, who plays a role in many sports at BCS, is recovering from a hernia operation.He won’t receive a pre-boarding pass until after Christmas.Holding ground for the defence will be Kyler Wells who has all the skills of a eood defencemen, accor- ding to Goodwin.“Kyler can play the man.beat the puck, and be in the right position." he said.In between the pipes for the Crusaders will be goaltender David Williams.Hopefully, the veteran backstop can hold off the attack of the other three ETIAC teams.“He started off well last year,” Goodwin said.“But (he) tapered off at the end of last season.” Both Goodwin and assistant coach Grant Sherriffs have one problem with the Crusaders: extra curricular activities.“Four of my players could only play the first period against Galt.Tuesday night (exhibition game).” Goodwin explained “We went to Montreal Wednesday to play Selwyn House and couldn't take the four because they had to be back for a rehersal,” he added.But, Goodwin believes that things will be back to normal after Christmas.“We don't get organized until after Christmas because of other school committments.’' he said.The Crusaders’ roster stands at 18 players, the coaches are hoping to cut it down to 15.“I’d like to keep 15 players,” said the 17-year veteran coacn.“I have sent one or two down to the bantam team, but 1 am keeping one bantam player, Guy Hackett.” Goodwin said.Goodwin and his team take off to the border town of Stanstead Saturday to participate in the 'Friendly-Four' tournament where Gooswin is hopes to keep the game plan simple.“1 am hoping for a lot of hustle, work and try to be competitive,” he concluded.The round-robin tournament starts at 9:30 a m.in the Stanstead College arena with all games being two 25-minute periods.Cougars face tough test tonight [Bruins net three late goals in win LENNOXVILLE — (BDM) The Champlain Cougars will be trying to return to winning ways Friday evening against third-place Montmorency.The Cougars have been facing tough times as of late.The squad has lost their last two games.Two games which they should have probably won.Cougars’ head coach Rod McKell is not throwing in the towel yet.The Howick native has a game plan which he believes will defeat the high flying Montmorency Nomades, last year’s provincial champions.“For us to win we have to play three areas of the ice well,” said McKell.“Especially in our zone, we are going to have to play very well.” In the the first Nomades-Cougars encounter of the season last month, the Cougars lost 6-1.Penalities were the main ingredient for the loss.“We took six penalties in the first period, and the game was closer than it indicated.” said McKell.McKell believes a good game in net will determine the outcome.“We are going to need a good game in nets,” he said.Veteran puckstopper Dan Chartier will be getting the starting nod.“Dan has a good week of practice,” he said.“I told both goalten- Lemieux PITTSBURGH (AP) — John Cullen had two goals and two assists and Kevin Stevens added a goal and three assists, leading the Pittsburgh Penguins to an 8-2 victory over the Quebec Nordiques on Thursday.The Penguins matched their longest winning streak this season with their second consecutive victory.They’ve outscored opponents 14-2 in the two games.The Nordi- ders that Dan will start but if he is weak on a couple of them he is coming out.” Chartier believers discipline from defence and goaltending will be the additional Cougar bonus.“We are going to have to take a little discipline from the defence and goaltending.” For the neminder, starting against Montmorency means a lot to him.“It means a lot to me because I didn’t start against them at all last year for all four games, but I am going to be ready for them.” said Chartier.POLAR BEARS With the Cougars rounding off the evening of hockey in Lennox-ville, the Bishop’s-Champlain Polar Bears will be taking on a tough McGill Martlet squad.Aggressive style of hockey is what the Montreal university likes to play and Polar-Bears head coach Jeff Cathcart is ready.“They are very aggressive game and we will have to stay out of the box,” he said.The Polar-Bears have been spending more time in the box rather putting the puck in the opponent’s net, but their number one objective will still be to hover over McGill’s number one player, Cathy Morrison.The Martlet player scored all BOSTON (AP) — Ray Bourque, Cam Neely and Glen Wesley scored goals 57 seconds apart late in the third period Thursday night, rallying the Boston Bruins to a 3-2 victory over the Montreal Canadiens.Patrick Roy appeared on his way to his 11th NHL shutout with 35 saves and a 2-0 lead when the Bruins erupted for their fourth victory in a row, extending their unbeaten streak to six games (5-0-1).Bourque took a pass from Ken Linseman and scored his second goal of the season on a slap shot from the left faceoff circle at 17:35.Linseman earned his 500th NHL assist on the play.At 17:54, Neely took a pass from Andy Brickley and beat Roy with a 10-footer for his 12th goal, tying the score 2-2.Bourque began the play by getting the puck to Brickley behind the Montreal goal.The Bruins, who outshot the Canadiens 38-21, continued to pressure Montreal and Wesley got the winner on an unassisted effort at 18:32.Wesley took the puck away from a Montreal skater inside the blue line, stickhandled in and flipped a shot past Roy for his first goal of the season.Shayne Corson and Brent Gilchrist scored third-period goals before the Bruins struck back to beat the Canadiens for the second time in three meetings.Corson capitalized on a fielding error by goalie Andy Moog to open the scoring early in the third period.Defenceman Donald Dufresne backhanded a high shot and Moog leaped several inches off the ice.However, he was unable to hang on to the puck and it dropped at his feet.Corson tapped it in for his 10th goal at 1:23.Gilchrist scored his third goal from a traffic jam in front of the Boston net at 10:42.Islanders spoil netminder’s debut Rod McKell prepares for crucial game .three goals last Saturday night in Montreal as the two teams tied 3-3.“She scored all three goals against us,” said the rookie coach.“If we shut her down, we should be able to beat them.” Mental errors, penalties and good hockey is what Cathcart has been preaching all week long.Will his lesson pay off?Game time is at6:30p.m.at the WB Scott Arena for the Polar-Bears with the Cougars game following immediately after.Pitt past Quebec ques have an NHL-low 11 points through 20 games.Pittsburgh scored four times in a seven-minute span of the second period.Cullen started the outburst with a power-play goal at 8:09.It was his second of the game and seventh of the season.Stevens scored on Cullen’s pass at 11:54 and Bob Errey tapped in Jock Callander’s pass at 13:18 for his sixth.At 15:09, Troy Loney’s Citadels hammer Hawks HALIFAX (CP) — The Halifax Citadels welcomed Moncton Hawks goaltender Tom Draper back to the American Hockey League with a 64-shot barrage en route to a 5-1 win Thursday night.Draper, sent to Moncton this week by the parent Winnipeg Jets, made 59 saves in a valiant effort — 25 in the third period.“I always play well here,” said Draper, a nemesis of the Citadels last season.“I know they (the Citadels) are going to shoot the puck a lot — that’s the type of team they have.I expect to have a lot of shots every time I come in here.” Miroslav Ihnacak scored his ninth and 10th goals of the season for Halifax while Jamie Baker, Claude Lapointe and Greg Smyth added the others.Brian McReynolds scored his first goal of the season late in the second period, ruining a shutout bid by Halifax’s Scott Gordon.The Citadel goalie finished with 22 saves.high slap shot handcuffed goalie Stéphane Fiset and dropped into the net.Cullen, Mark Recchi and Mario Lemieux gave the Penguins a 3-0 lead in the first period.Cullen picked Stevens’ rebound off a goalpost at 3:32 and Recchi banged in Cullen’s pass while being knocked to the ice at 7:23.Lemieux extended his pointscoring streak to eight games with his 11th goal as he put a wrist shot over Fiset’s glove from 20 feet on a power play.Callander scored at 7:34 of the third period.Joe Sakic scored his 10th for Quebec and Claude Loiselle also scored.The Nordiques have not won this season without Ron Tugnutt in goal.Tugnutt is 5-7-0, while Fiset and Sergei Mylnikov have combined for an 0-7-1 record.The Nordiques, who played Thursday's game without injured forwards Michel Goulet and Guy Lafleur, are 2-7-0 on the road.UNIONDALE, N Y.(AP) — Pat LaFontaine had two goals and an assist as the New York Islanders broke a six-game losing streak with a 6-2 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday night, spoiling the NHL debut of goaltender Peter Ing.The Islanders won for the first time since Nov.4 and for only the second time in 13 games.Their record in that period is 2-9-2.The Maple Leafs were 4-1 in their previous five games.The Islanders, 2-8-2 at home this season, took a 4-1 lead after one period against Ing.They scored four times on only seven shots against Ing, who was brought up from Newmarket of the AHL on Wednesday.Mick Vukota beat Ing from the top of the right circle at 2:24.Gerald Diduck gave the Islanders a 2-0 lead when his shot went into the net off the stick of defenceman Tom Kurvers at 6:11 on a power play.LaFontaine made it 3-0 when he deflected in a pass by Alan Kerr at 8:33 from the slot.Tom Fergus’s slap shot at 10:51 cut New York’s lead to 3-1.But Don Maloney’s 200th career goal, a deflection from the side of the net at 11:31, restored the Islanders’ three goal lead.Ing was replaced for three minutes by Mark LaForest before returning later in the first period.He looked less shaky in the second and so did the Maple Leafs as they cut the Islanders’ lead to 4-2 on Gary Leeman’s goal during a scramble in front of goalie Glenn Healy.But the Islanders wrapped things up on Brian Trottier’s 493rd career goal and LaFontaine’s second of the night and 15th of the season.Trottier put a backhander past Ing at 1:03 after skating in from centre ice.LaFontaine added a short handed goal at 4:26.Ing finished with 19 saves for the Leafs, who had won three straight games at Nassau Coliseum.Eklund put the Flyers in front 4-3 when he took a pass from Bullard and flipped a backhander over sprawled goalie Kari Takko at 10:43 of the second period.Don Biggs added a goal for the Flyers on a power play when he beat Takko with a 15-footer between the pads at 1:01 of the third period.Eklund’s second goal, at 14:29 of the third period, came when he beat Takko on a short backhander.Blues 7 Red Wings 2 Flyers 6 North Stars 3 PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Pelle Eklund scored twice and Mike Bullard had one goal and assisted on three others as the Philadelphia Flyers defeated Minnesota 6-3 Thursday night, ending the North Stars’ four-game winning streak.The victory gave the Flyers a .500 record for the first time this season (8-8-3).DETROIT (AP) — Paul MacLean and Paul CavaUini scored two goals each during a four-goal second period Thursday night, leading the St.Louis Blues to a 7-2 victory over Detroit, the Red Wings’ seventh straight loss.The Blues capitalized pn four of six power-play chances for their sixth victory against one defeat and three ties in 10 games.Detroit (4-13-3) has allowed 11 power-play goals in its last 23 short-handed situations.The Red Wings, who last won Oct.19, saw their winless streak extended to 12 games (0-9-3), tying a team record.Carpenter rotates three goalies Ex-Hab promoting new life story TORONTO (CP) — John Ferguson had a friendly chat on the telephone Thursday with Harry Sinden.He’s keeping in touch.Ferguson is operating Windsor Raceway, a harness racing track, after managing the NHL’s New York Rangers (1976-78) and the Winnipeg Jets (1978-1988).“Hockey and horses are in my blood,” says Ferguson, making the first stop on a tour to promote his book, Thunder and Lightning.The title is fitting.The hot-blooded former Montreal Canadiens tough guy was one of the most volatile characters to play the game in the 1960s.And any player he coached or managed would attest to his explosive nature.The intensity he devoted to hockey has been switched to horse racing.He says he made a verbal commitment, as well as an investment in doUars, to stay at least three years when he took over the track last spring.The Jets fired Ferguson in October 1988 and the most recent involvement he’s had with hockey was managing Team Canada at the 1989 world championship in Stockholm where he and his players won silver medals.“I was thrilled I could take charge of Team Canada,” he says.Will he never get back to the NHL?“Never is never the right word,” he says, scraping ash off his $2.50 cigar on the side of an ashtray.TOO BUSY The phone call to Sinden, general manager of the Boston Bruins, is typical of his continual interest in the NHL.Sinden is a buddy.Ferguson was Sinden’s assistant coach for the memorable 1972 Summit Series against the Soviet Union.“I’ve had opportunities to get back (to the NHL),” Ferguson says, adding that he rejected several job offers after he was fired by the Jets.“But I’m committed to the race track now.“I have a satellite dish at the office and I watch as many NHL games as I can.I still check the scores before I go to bed every night and I talk to three or four general managers every week.“But I’m so constantly busy with the track that I don’t have time to miss (hockey).” Ferguson has season tickets for Detroit Red Wings games, a short drive across the Detroit River, and predicts the Red Wings will bounce back after a dismal start this sea- son.He likes the Chicago Black-hawks and the Bruins and says the Canadiens ‘ ‘will be there at the end of the year.” But the Calgary Flames “are going to be tough to beat.” A photographer snaps Ferguson's picture.It’s a promotional shot for the book blitz.He clenches his right fist and directs it at the camera.Ferguson might be out of hockey but don’t, for one minute, assume he’s mellowed.TORONTO (CP) — The wheels in Doug Carpenter’s head never stop turning.His latest gambit is the advance goaltender.“I’m trying everything I can to help our goaltenders,” says the Toronto Maple Leafs’ head coach.“If we have three of them, why not use all three?“I might even send one goaltender ahead.” A1 Bester and Mark LaForest are the main men between the pipes, but now that the Leafs have signed junior Peter Ing, Carpenter figures on juggling the three.He didn’t use Bester against the St.Louis Blues on Wednesday night, opting to have Ing, who has been playing with the AHL’s Newmarket Saints since turning pro a couple of weeks ago, as the backup to LaForest in a 5-2 win over the Blues.The strategy will include sending one of the three to the city of a forthcoming game a day or two ahead of his teammates, Carpenter says.After winning four of their last five games, the Leafs hit the road for a game tonight against the New York Islanders, the first of nine games out of their next 10 that will be in opposition rinks.At 10-10, the Leafs have met Carpenter’s goal of a .500 first quarter to the 80-game schedule.PART OF A PLAN The unique use of his goaltenders will be part of his plan “to reach the next plateau.” Carpenter can, at times, come across as conceited, arrogant and overly cerebral.But there is no doubt hi s presence has been instrumental in the rebirth of a team that finished 19th out of 21 teams last season with a .388 winning percentage.“The mood is really good,” says forward Mark Osborne.“We have a lot of confidence.“We feel good about playing at home this season, convincing people this team can play good, solid hockey.“It’s all because of Doug Carpenter and his system.Everybody has a responsibility and knows his role.You might say that everybody should know that by the time he gets to the NHL, but that’s not necessarily the case.You have to have that extra jump.Carpenter’s system has helped us.” Last season, the Leafs played poorly at home and were greeted with choruses of boos from the faithful following on many occasions.STORM BACK This season, they seem to relish winning at Maple Leaf Gardens.Against the Blues, they trailed 2-0 but stormed back to win.It’s not the first time this season they’ve pulled victory from the jaws of defeat.“This building can be a little bit quieter than others,” says defence-man Brad Marsh.“So when you hear the crowd get behind you, it makes you feel good, it makes you work harder.” The Leafs, after losing their first two home starts this season, now have won six of their last eight at the Gardens.Draw Wednesday, November 15,1989 6/6 You can play up to 8:00 P.M.on Wednesday and Saturday 5/6
