Quebec had a clue who she was.No longer.After what Robillard herself describes as a baptism by fire, the new labor minister and minister responsible for the Quebec referendum has a higher profile than They can\u2019t win \u2014 Chrétien Péquiste MNAs say fall is still too soon for vote By Jack Branswell QUEBEC (CP) \u2014 The day after Premier Jacques Parizeau put off a referendum until the fall, several Parti Québécois members started suggesting it might even be delayed beyond 1995.That brought a scathing reaction from federalist leaders including Prime Minister Jean Chrétien.Any delay seems to depend on how long it will take skeptical Quebecers to warm to the notion of independence, PQ members suggested Thursday.\u201cWe could even go beyond that if we realize that people still need more information (on sovereignty) in the fall,\u201d said Rosaire Bertrand, the PQ caucus chairman.Bertrand has often said the PQ should hold the vote this spring.He was among several PQ members singing a different tune Thursday.Backbencher André Boulerice said: \u201cI won't get all worked up if its in 1996.but I think we're committed to the fall.\u201d Jacques Léonard, transport minister and long considered a hardline separatist, spoke in conciliatory tones saying \u201cthe important thing is that we win the referendum.\u201d Parizeau has promised a referendum for 1995.He has never set a spring date, but up until last week it was clear the party had been gearing up for a possible By Don Macdonald QUEBEC (CP) \u2014 Lie back and tell me all about it.When Quebec psychologists put their compatriots on the couch these days they find a lot of raging emotions.But they rarely have anything to do with the sovereignty referendum.And that lack of interest in the referendum has forced Premier Jacques Parizeau to put off the vote until at least the fall.There appears to be little enthusiasm or passion on either side of a debate that in the past has filled the streets with demonstrators and left families bitterly divided.Quebec psychologists say the ho-hum attitude toward the referendum can be traced to the pressing worries of life in the 1990s.\u201cPeople are uncertain about economic developments occurring in the world today, and that tends to make them more conservative,\u201d said Luc Gran- ger, a psychologist at the University of Montreal.\u201cThey are asking themselves whether they will have a job.That's a primary need of people and predominant in their thinking.\u201d Maurice Payette, a Sherbrooke University psychologist, said another important factor in the lack of enthusiasm is widespread pessimism about the separatist chances of winning a decisive referendum victory.\u201cThere is so little chance of there being a clear result that people prefer not to get involved,\u201d Payette said.\u201cThey say: What referendum?Does anybody out there really care?\u2018It won\u2019t change anything.We will just end up in another dead-end.\u201d There is also a beliefthe Parti Québécois government will be forced to put off the referendum beyond 1995 for lack of support.\u201cPeople aren't enthusiastic because they don\u2019t believe there will be a referendum and there won't be a referendum because people aren\u2019t enthusiastic,\u201d Payette said with a laugh.He added that people have become tired and cynical about a debate that has been going on for 30 years often with the same arguments and the same faces on both sides.Granger said the PQ may be a victim of its own success.~The effectiveness of the PQ\u2019s language laws in protecting and promoting French in Quebec has reduced feelings of cultural insecurity, he said.\u201cOnce that was done, people don\u2019t really see the interest of going further.\u201d \u201d The announcement that the Quebec referendum will be held this fall was no more exciting in financial markets than it was on rue Principale.The news came as no surprise to financial markets Thursday, analysts said.\u2018Stock markets were largely unaffected by the referendum decision.The Toronto Stock Exchange 300 composite index ended the day almost unchanged from Wednesday.The Canadian dollar rose 0.21 of a cent to close at 72.07 cents US \u2014 the first time this year it has finished above the See CARE Page 2 June vote.Chrétien called the postponement an admission the separatist cause is lost.\u201cOf course,\u201d he said in Dallas when asked if Parizeau was admitting defeat by delaying a referendum until the fall.Chrétien criticized Parizeau for breaking his promise to hold a separation vote within eight to 10 months of taking power.\u201cThat was a promise he made very clearly to the people of Quebec and he is not respecting that.\u201d New Brunswick\u2019s premier says he doesn\u2019t think Quebec separatists have any better chance of winning a fall sovereignty referendum \u2014 and that\u2019s good news for Canada.\u201cIt\u2019s obvious that Premier (Jacques) Parizeau is pretty confident of the results in Quebec as well \u2014 otherwise he would not keep running away from holding the referendum,\u201d Frank McKen- na said Thursday.However, support for sovereignty has been stuck in the polls at about five to 10 percentage points below the crucial 50 per cent mark.David Payne, another PQ backbencher, said he \u201ccouldn\u2019t care a less\u201d if

See ROBILLARD Page 2 RECORD: GRANT SIMEON They broke ranks on gun control Liberals punish dissident members.By Jim Bronskill OTTAWA (CP) \u2014 The Chrétien government has made it clear that Liberals who buck the party line will pay a price.Three Liberal backbenchers were dropped from committee duty less than 24 hours after they broke party ranks and voted against federal gun-control legislation.The Ontario members \u2014 Rex Crawford, Benoit Serre and Paul Steckle \u2014 are among several Liberals from rural ridings with farmers and hunters who oppose the bill's strict registration provisions.An unrepentant Serre, dumped Thursday from the Commons natural resources committee, said he had no regrets about voting against the bill at second reading.\u201cI would do it again tomorrow, if need be.\u201d The Northern Ontario MP accused the government of failing to live up to a commitment in its red book of campaign promises to allow more free votes in the Commons.\u201cI will work within caucus to make sure the red book commitment is followed,\u201d said Serre.In the House, Reform MP Deborah Gray demanded to know what had happened to the promise.Government House leader Herb Gray said the Liberals had already shown more commitment to parliamentary freedom than the previous Conservative * government by allowing MPs to vote as they please on private member\u2019s business.\u2018Violence does Liberal whip Don Boudria, who made the final decision to remove the MPs, denied the government was muzzling independent thought.\u201cIf members are not supportive of the government\u2019s measures, well, they obviously cannot be on those committees as representatives of the caucus for the time being.\u201d The members won't lose any

with a baseball bat for $100, one question is on everyone's lips: Why?But experts have no easy answers when kids kill.Three boys aged 13, 14 and 15 have been charged with first- degree murder in the deaths of Anglican priest Frank Toope and his wife, Jocelyne.The savage manner in which they died suggest psychopathic behavior not usually seen with young offenders, said Marc LeBlanc, a University of Montreal criminologist.\u201cYour regular young offender who wants to do a robbery and scare people doesn\u2019t take a baseball bat, he takes a gun or a knife.The weapon used is very primitive.\u201d he said Psychiatric evaluations of young offenders who perpetrate crimes of senseless violence often reveal a history of family violence, LeBlanc said.\u201cViolence doesn\u2019t come from nowhere.\u201d Police tracked down the Ben- consfield trio after one of them was heard boasting in school about \u201cdoing a house.\u201d The Too- pes\u2019 blood-spattered home was ransacked and jewelry, a radio and $100 in cash was stolen.The couple\u2019s car was stolen and abandoned behind a shopping mall.See KIDS KILL Page 2 - Credit Margins - Term Loans - Government Guaranteed loans

research Kemestrie will help companies by providing leading edge ways of dealing with their waste, as well as developing the facilities needed to handle it.\u201cWe have to take the results and transpose it to a level where investors would be interested in going ahead with the idea,\u201d said Estoban Chornet, founder and vice-president of research and development at the new company \u201cKemstrie has this mission of taking laboratory results to the realization ofindustrial life.\u201d Chornet said that the new company, which will employ five full-time workers and two part- time, is in a unique position.Not many companies are willing to fill the gap between theory and real-world applications.\u201cWe feel we can build a sound business and occupy this place that very few people can,\u201d Chor- net said.\u201cBecause we have the expertise, we understand the fundamentals and we understand very well the market niche.\u201d The researchers working at Kemestrie seem to know their stuff.Most of them have been doing research in the field for Sherbrooke University since 1992.A series of successful projects led them to believe they could make a go of it on their own.Parti Québécois regional delegate Claude Boucher was on hand for the launching of the new Kemestrie: Bringing research out of the closet company.The Johnson MNA said that in a difficult field, the members of the company have shown that they have what it tehes to be a success.\u201cThis is a team capable of making the transfer from university expertise to an industrial application,\u201d Boucher said.In this their first year of operation the Kemestrie has racked up some $750,000 of contracts for research and development.Another $300,000 is expected before the end of the year.Alain Caillé, vice-rector of Sherbrooke University said Kemestrie will live on the leading edge of scientific development: \u201c- Kemestrie is above all a showcase of technology.\u201d Prosecutor: No doubt the major was negligent \u2018By Jim Morris CALGARY \u2014 After calling him a puny major and a drunk in a vicious cross-examination Thursday, the prosecution told a general court martial there's no doubt a Canadian major was negligent during UN peacekeeping duties last year.Testimony showed Maj.Ross \u201cWickware allowed his men to break the military\u2019s alcohol policy while providing security for a July 1994 Serbian wedding in Bosnia-Herzegovina, said prosecutor Lt.-Cmdr.Vance Wirth.\u201cThe totality of the evidence proves beyond a reasonable doubt the negligence went beyond a mere error in judgment and amounted to either a measure of indifference or amounted to a passive approval or an intentional failure,\u201d Wirth said in his summation.Wirth was aggressive and often hostile in his blistering cross-examination.Wickware didn\u2019t flinch but sometimes became tongue-tied in his answers.Wickware, 36, is charged with negligence in performance of a military duty and neglecting good order and discipline of a half-dozen troops under his command.Earlier, Wickware sat ramrod straight as Wirth called him a Serbian sympathizer who was \u201c- led around by the nose\u201d by Serbian Maj.Nasho Miric.Wickware admitted he had argued with another Canadian officer who accused him of favoring the Serbs.The court also heard Miric praise Wickware.He testified Wickware was trusted locally after he helped restore a hospital \u201cWickware was the first person who spoke to us and talked to us with respect,\u201d Miric, who travelled to Canada for the defence, said through an interpreter.He also said drinking was part of negotiations.Wirth noted Miric was a friend of Wickware even though the Serb was involved in detaining several Canadian peacekeepers in March.Retired Maj.-Gen.Lewis MacKenzie told the court alcohol was served at all negotiations in the former Yugoslavia.\u201cIt was my opinion one would not want to refuse because it would be seen as being inhospitable,\u201d said the former United Nations commander.The court martial heard the military\u2019s battle group alcohol policy allows off-duty soldiers two drinks, but drivers are not allowed to consume alcohol for eight hours prior to driving.Testimony indicated several drivers broke the eight-hour rule.Wirth appeared incredulous when Wickware said he trusted his officers when they told him the drivers weren't drinking.\u201cYou never took it upon yourself to see if the drivers had been drinking?\u201d Wirth asked.\u201cEven though you were in a war zone, your troops were drinking with Serb soldiers and there were guns.You didn\u2019t check your soldiers for 4, hours.\u201d He also chided Wickware for using insulting language to a Bosnian checkpoint guard while returning to camp.Wickware said he was angry the guard threatened him with a rifle.\u201cYou must have been a very brave man or a drunk one,\u201d Wirth said.\u201cI would say brave,\u201d answered Wickware.\u201cI would say drunk,\u201d retorted Wirth, Wickware said he was invited as a guest to the wedding, but also planned to do some negotiating with Serbian officials there.Wirth questioned if Wickware \u2014 \u201ca puny major\u201d \u2014 had the authority to conduct any talks.Wickware admitted his commanding officer later had reservations about his supplying security for the wedding.Wickware also admitted some of the other warring factions felt he had lost his impartiality.He said he knew his men would be offered alcohol during the wedding ceremony, but trusted they would observe the military\u2019s drinking policy.He also said none of the men drank in his presence.If convicted, Wickware could face penalties ranging from a jail sentence, a dishonorable discharge, or demotion to a reprimand.VOTE: Continued from page one me security minister and another sovereigntist hardliner, seemed to back away from a firm commitment to the fall.\u201cI won't get into a

extra weeks won't make a difference.\u201cIt won't fly because the priority Quebecers want their government to address is the economy and jobs,\u201d he said.In the National Assembly Johnson tried to get Parizeau to commit to a date in the fall but the premier would not bite.Federalist politicians reacted negatively to Parizeau\u2019s announcement Wednesday.\u201cHe (Parizeau) chose to delay the referendum when Quebecers are ready to vote,\u201d said Lucienne Robillard, the minister responsi- given high marks for her performance in Parliament to date, her real job is in Quebec.She spends Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays working on the referendum in Montreal and the rest of the week in Ottawa.As vice-president of the No committee, she is Chrétien\u2019s personal representative at talks on referendum strategy.Lucienne Robillard: BORN: June 16, Montreal.1945, EDUCATION: Master of social work, business administration.CAREER: Worked on Israeli kibbutz from 1969-72; returned to Montreal

SHERBROOKE (DW) \u2014 Tkin- king about building or renovating a house this summer?Well, before you start shopping for plywood, drywall or plumbing fixtures, the Canada Housing and Mortgage Corporation (CMHC) would like a word with you about ecology.Have you stopped to consider how much water you'll use each day flushing that fancy toilet you have your eye on in the catalogue?Or how much extra energy it will take to keep your home heated next winter if you go ahead with a north-facing bay window?When was the last time you thought about fungus in your carpet?Probably never.That could all change this month when the CMHC puts its model of healthy housing on display at the 1995 edition of the Sherbrooke home show.\u201cIt\u2019s important to make people in the region aware of the demands of the environment they live in,\u201d CMHC consultant Michel Desbiens said Thursday.CO \u201cThe concept is based on making 2 the home as healthy as possible, 3 both for the people who live in it & and for the environment.\u201d For two years now the CMHC has been taking its futuristic exhibit across the country to demonstrate what it believes are the essential components of healthy, sustainable home construction for the next century.The concept, drawn from plans submitted by dozens of designers during a nationwide competition in 1992, combines elements of energy and resource efficieny with principles of environmental responsibility and comfort to pro vide the ultimate expression of eco-living.Everything from the type of glue in the floorboards to the materials used in the furniture has been taken into consideration.Most glues are frowned on, by the way, since they contain formaldehyde \u2014 à known irritant \u2014 which gets gradually released into the air as the glues break down.That means plywood is out.And organic fibres such as wool are favored over synthetics.Carpeting is discouraged altogether in healthy houses since, according to Desbiens, it traps dirt, dust and moisture \u2014 the perfect breeding ground for unwanted germs and foul- smelling fungus.Wood producers will be happy to krow that kiln-dried spruce studs get high marks from the, CMHC for their low toxicity.What's more, wood actually uses less total energy than steel or concrete to produce, so Desbiens endorses it as the environmental choice for building materials.Expo Habitat, which runs from April 20 to 23 at Sherbrooke University\u2019s Univestrie pavilion, is an annual showcase of the latest materials and products on the market for builders, owners and contractors, so Desbiens said he hopes the CMHC kiosk will be a source of inspiration for consumers.\u201cIt\u2019s true that this type of housing costs a little more, but there are savings in the long run, in terms

said he learned last October the US company RCI Inc.was interested in acquiring the Hyundai car plant in Bromont to manufacture state- of-the-art police cars for North American police departments.RCI Inc.is considering a the deal to purchase the modern car plant.Mignault said the high-tech cruisers slated to be manufactured by RCI will be equipped with full-sized computer and fax machine and a steam-clean fibreglass rear compartment for now concerning Bromont,\u201d Pen- horwood said.\u201cBut that doesn\u2019t preclude the Quebec government from trying to put a deal together on its own and

SHERBROOKE \u2014 Seniors playing cards in the Wagon Room of the Army, Navy, Air Force Veterans Association \u201cHut\u201d in Lennoxville Wednesday didn\u2019t expect to raise the roof.But that\u2019s exactly what happened with a little help from Mother Nature.At about 3:30 in the afternoon, high winds tore the roof off the second storey section of the Hut, while the group of seniors were enjoying a quiet game of 500.\u201cWe haven\u2019t seen that kind of wind in a long time,\u201d said Cedric Cormier, president of Lennoxvil- le\u2019s Unit 318 of the ANAF vets.Cormier said the winds shook the doors and lifted off the flat roof, tearing it apart.The afternoon act of God left the Hut with a $4000 repair bill at a time when finances are really tight.IN THE RED \u201cThe

Sharon McCully COWANSVILLE \u2014 Hearings in a $3.2 million lawsuit filed by the District of Bedford School Board against Education Minister Jean Garon have been postponed to April 10.The case was scheduled to be heard in Superior Court in Quebec City Monday, but cases involving individuals were pushed to the head of the roll, delaying the school board\u2019s case to later in the day.\u201cOne of our witnesses wasn't available in the afternoon, so the case was postponed to April 11,\u201d said James Bissell, director- general of the Bedford board.The board is suing the education ministry for reneging on a $3.2 million funding commitment made by the Liberal government to purchase and renovate a Cowansville property for use as a technical-vocational training centre.Shortly after gaining power last September the newly elected PQ government began questioning the deal.By February the minister had shelved the plan and proposed expansion of the existing tech-voc centre at Massey Vanier High School.Bissell and the Bedford board concluded that by accepting a tentative new proposal without any guarantees.the board would be relinquishing its hold on government funds already com- mutted and budgeted by the Liberals The board\u2019s partner in the deal, the French-language Davi- gnon school board, saw it differently.\u201cThe Davignon board has gone on record saying they oppose our methodology.And they obviously have more confidence in the government than we do that an amount of money would be reserved in a new budget if we go to Massey Vanier,\u201d Bissell said.Nearly three-quarters of the students registered in the tech- voc programs are enrolled with the Bedford board.Bissell said the Bedford board will foot the legal bill for costs related to taking the education ministry to court.The case is expected to have a speedy resolution once heard next Tuesday.\u201cIt\u2019s being treated as an urgent situation,\u201d Bissell said, \u201cand since most of the evidence is presented through affidavits, we expect a decision possibly the same day.\u201d flecord Thursday.Cormier said repairs from last summer have left the association in the red, and the expense of fixing the roof is more than their meagre budget can handle.Last summer the veterans club was forced to fix the ceiling on another part of the building, Cormier said.At the same time as the ceiling, part of the walls aiso had to be redone.In the meantime, the compressor on the beer machine, the ice machine and the glass washer all went on the fritz, adding more costly repairs to the

says he\u2019s confident the deal will go through.\u201cThey told me last week they want everything completed in a couple of weeks,\u201d he said.But if the RCI deal falls through, Mignault says he isn\u2019t worried.\u201cI have another buyer interested in the plant and if this deal doesn\u2019t go through, this company could have the cash in 30 days.\u201d Unit 318, which has about 280 members, owns the building outright.The veterans association uses the building for its own activities, donates the hall for community groups for some fun- draising activities, and rents its out to various groups for parties and other events.In the meantime, if the rain and snow stay away the Hut will be open as usual, Cormier said.\u201cIf the good Lord holds out, we can still operate.\u201d Anyone interested in aiding the Hut\u2019s repair fund can do so by sending a contribution to Unit 318, the Amry, Navy, Air Force Hut, 300 St.Francis, or by calling Cormier at 346-9122, or

Important to remain vigilant Changes at one of the Eastern Townships\u2019 oldest English-language institutions are inevitable now that Sherbrooke Hospital has signed a protocol to join with Youville Hospital as a twin-site long-term care facility.But how great the changes are, and how profoundly they will affect the English community, still remain to be seen.That\u2019s why it\u2019s important for English- speaking Townshippers to keep an eye on the situation and ensure their rights to services in English aren\u2019t diminished by the administrative upheaval in the hospitals, made necessary by severe budget restrictions.Access to health and social services in English are guaranteed by Quebec law, and Sherbrooke Hospital is one of the local institutions which must provide them.So as services previously available there move to other hospitals, its important that the English-speaking community remain vigilant to ensure that its members will continue to be served adequately elsewhere in the health and social service network.Some hospitals have been slow to respond to legal obligations to provide services in English.Many have resisted change, arguing that the law prevents them from requiring employees to speak English.Others face problems with unions which say bilingual workers cannot be hired or promoted over francohone workers.As the local health board forces great changes upon the hospital network, it must ensure that services to anglophone continue, and are adapted to their growing and changing needs.Committees have been set up to oversee the creation of both the long term care consortium made up of Sherbrooke and Youville hospitals, and the creation of an acute-care consortium made up of Hotel Dieu, St-Vincent de Paul and Sherbrooke University hospitals.However, the Estrie health board refused to ensure that the anglophone community be represented on the committee overseeing creation of the acute-care consortium, which will take over many of the services anglophones now find at the Sherbrooke Hospital.The Sherbrooke Hospital is setting up a community liason system to help keep the anglo community informed about what is going on there.It\u2019s iinportant for citizens to use this vehicle to monitor changes there and ensure their needs are met.But keeping an eye on the formation and organization of the acute care consortium is of even greater importance.English-speaking citizens must ensure they are considered in any administrative changes which affect where and how they will receive health care.Change is inevitable, but anglophones can work to ensure they benefit from the changes.However, if they fail to be vigilant, they may discover they have lost more in the shuffle than they can ever regain.RITA LEGAULT Letters to the Editor To the Editor: Hurrah! Hurrah! I applaud Stephen Black\u2019s letter to the Record (March 28, 1995) concerning the abundance of dog droppings that are left on the sidewalks and lawns of Lennoxville, either for pedestrians to step in or property owners to pick up.About a year ago, I asked for and received a copy of the town bylaws concerning pets and the responsibilities of pet owners.Wonder of wonders, there is a poop and scoop law.I voiced a complaint on several occasions to two of the Lennoxville town councillors.In response, I received a note from one of them agreeing that there was definitely a problem.But as he said, while it is well and good to have such a law, if it has no teeth what good is it.At that time I mentioned that to iny knowledge, from conversations with my neighbors (who do respect the law), Lennoxville residents have never been informed that such a law does exist.I suggested perhaps they could begin by informing pet owners of the law and the consequences of not scooping after the pooping via the town info-letter.Ah, that would be a good idea!

Quebec is not a sovereign state or country as it is said in Article 1 of the proposed Bill.Yes! Quebec is an important partner in a great country and yes!

than a few welts on the backside of an American boy.It has been almost a year since teenager Michael Fay was given four licks of the Old Persuader for vandalism.But the debate rages on in this country and, to a lesser extent, in Canada: is there a place in the criminal justice system for corporal punishment?No fewer than nine states in the United States and a number of judges, educators and politicians in Canada, are advocating a return to the cane or paddle to punish young offenders.In the Michael Fay case, the 18-year-old American was caught spray-painting cars in Singapore and was sentenced to four months in prison, a $2,230 fine and six lashes.The furore over the lashes reached all the way to the White House and the sentence was reduced to four lashes after President Bill Clinton intervened.NEW COURSE But the hue and cry over the archaic form of discipline caught the attention of a surprising number of people who reflected on the possibilities of the paddle steering a new course for recalcitrant youth.\u201cCall Michael Fay and ask him if he\u2019d go over there and do that again and I bet he'd say no,\u201d said Tennessee Republican Doug Gunnels as he sponsored a corporal punishment bill currently before the state U.S.leaders want to legislature.The Tennessee bill would allow for public caning \u201con the courthouse steps\u201d for a number of specific crimes ranging from misdemeanors \u2014 one to four lashes; to felonies \u2014 five to 15 lashes.Paddling and caning bills are being pondered in state assemblies stretching from New York and Florida to Arizona and California.It has yet to become law in any state.In Canada, Reform party justice critic Myron Thompson has gone on the record as advocating corporal punishment for young offenders.He says that during his years as a school principal in Alberta, he saw a remarkable change in behavior among those who had \u201ctasted a piece of wood.\u201d HOT WATER Ontario provincial court Judge Gord McConnell found himself in hot water last year after he wished bring back the cane for a return to caning in Canada.He made the remark as he sentenced two 17-year-old youths who robbed a cab driver at knifepoint.And after five burglaries at his constituency office in two years, Daniel Jarvis, a Liberal member of the B.C.legislature, said it may be time to consider corporal punishment.\u201cMaybe Southeast Asia\u2019s situation isn\u2019t as bad as people think,\u201d Jarvis said.\u201cI think it would smarten them up with the cane.There's just no penalty now.\u201d The feeling that young people don\u2019t face sufficiently serious consequences when they do wrong is behind much the legislation in the United States.In California, there are two bills on the state agenda: one calls for paddling in cases of vandalism and the other for a return to corporal punishment in schools.Chris Manson works in the office States wouldn\u2019t be By The Canadian Press The United States won't be alone if some states bring back caning and paddling to enforce laws.Amnesty International lists these countries that rely on caning, whipping, stoning, flogging and amputations to keep people in line: \u2014 United Arab Emirates \u2014 flogging, caning \u2014 North Yemen \u2014 flogging, stoning South Yemen amputation \u2014 Iran \u2014 whipping, stoning \u2014 Jordan \u2014 flogging \u2014 Saudi

graffiti vandals and juvenile delinquents .right now there are no consequences for their actions or at least, no perceived consequences,\u201d he said.\u201cThey might get detention or they might get

amenities missing from the old building, BOSTON \u2014 From the day it first opened and more than 14,000 people poured into Boston Madison Square Garden to watch local hero Dick (Honeyboy) Finnegan take on world featherweight champion André Routis in a non-title bout, the old building on Causeway Street in the heart of Beantown has been a mecca for sports fans.Finnegan won the Nov.17, 1928 bout in 10 rounds.Sixty- seven years later the Garden \u2014 as it became known because Boston fans didn\u2019t like the building being associated with New York\u2019s Madison Square Garden \u2014 itself is being counted out.The venerable building that has been host to some of sports\u2019 greatest and not so-great events is on its final legs.Some time around 7:30 p.m.on May 1 the Boston Bruins will face-off against the Ottawa Senators in the final regular season game at the 14,448-seat arena.OPEN FOR PLAYOFFS The real end will come some time later when the Bruins or basketball\u2019s Boston Celtics finish their playoff run.Both teams are on the bubble for playoff berths, but it\u2019s doubtful that either will add another banner to the Garden\u2019s historic rafters.The Celtics and the Bruins will start the 1995-96 season in the FleetCenter, a modern building being constructed a mere nine inches behind its forefather.While the new building will have all the amenities of modern arenas it won't have any of the history.With a $160-million US price tag the FleetCenter will be a vast improvement on the old Garden.The Bruins\u2019 new home will have air conditioning, unobstructed views, a video-replay scoreboard, an extra 3,052 seats and of course 104 luxury boxes.But will have the same feel?HARD TO COPY With a few exceptions there really isn\u2019t a bad seat in the old building.Its steep design gives spectators the impression that they are hanging above the action \u2014 whether its above the smallest rink in the National Hockey League or the parquet floor \u2014 something that is much harder to duplicate in a larger building.\u201cI don\u2019t think the size of the building had.any effect on how, ! we, as management « or coaches approched the game,\u201d Bruins president and general manager Harry Sinden once said.\u201cI know I didn\u2019t try to build a team just to play in the Garden.Or at least I don\u2019t think I did.I do think the size of the building, the closeness, had an effect on how our fans approached the Brad Park enjoyed some successful seasons in Boston.air conditioning.game.And the fans affected our players.\u201d Yeah, right! And the Big, Bad Bruins built their reputation on end-to-end rushes.Since the Montreal Canadiens beat Boston 1-0 in the first NHL game at the Garden on Nov.20, 1928, the Bruins have tried to use the small rink to their advantage.NO CAKE-WALKS That first season the Bruins went 16-6-1 at home en route to their first Stanley Cup.They would add only four more in the next six decades \u2014 1938-39, 40-41, '69-70 and 71-72, but nobody walked into the Garden \u2014 not even the Flying Frenchmen \u2014 and expected a cakewalk.The Bruins have not always been blessed with the most talented players, but like the Montreal Canadiens, they have always been competitive.And what other franchise can lay claim two of the greatest defencemen of all time No.4 Bobby Orr and No.77 Raymond Bourque.Not to mention Eddie Shore (No.2), Lionel Hitchman (No.3), Aubrey (Dit) Clapper (No.5), Phil Esposito (No.7), John Bucyk (No.9) and Milt Schmidt (No.15); the other players who have been immortalized like Orr by having their numbers raised to the rafters in the sports\u2019 shrine.But unlike hockey\u2019s other shrine, the Montreal Forum \u2014 which is scheduled to be replaced in March 1996 \u2014 the

7, 1995 Living Record Look for more than \u2018cool\u2019 appeal when shopping for shades Eyewear vitally important when enjoying spring sun By Marlene Habib The Canadian Press It doesn\u2019t pay to be eye to eye with the sun.The naked eye is a delicate and vulnerable organ, unable to win any direct assault by light or dangerous ultraviolet A and B rays from the sun.Overexposure can result in conditions ranging from dryness and snowblindness, to serious problems such as cataracts, burning of the cornea and cancer, especially over the eyelid.Government figures show that the number of cataract operations increased from 70,000 in 1987 to 134,000 in 93, and many were the result of long-term exposure to UVB and UVA rays.That's why eye protection \u2014 for both adults and children \u2014 is an essential part of any sun-care routine, especially now that Canadians are spending more time outdoors.Sunglasses \u2014 which shouldn\u2019t be chosen just for their \u201ccool\u201d or esthetic appeal \u2014 are the main line of defence.But other valuable options are wide-brimmed hats and new UV-shielding contact lenses introduced last June in Canada.Pilkington Barnes Hind says its Precision contact lenses block out 90 per cent of the sun\u2019s burning rays.But they are to be worn with \u2014 not instead of \u2014 sunglasses because they don't cut down on glare or sensitivity to light, says Jackie Gladman of Pilkington Barnes Hind\u2019s Canadian office in Mississauga, Ont.Gladman says the company expects distribution to double this year.Properly chosen sunglasses help reduce glare, improve contrast and make you feel more comfortable in the sun, says literature from the health protec- zion branch of Health Canada.Even while wearing sunglasses, warn researchers, don\u2019t look directly at the sun.It takes only 10 to 15 seconds for the sun's 1mage to burn the eyes, usually resulting in permanent loss of vision.Sunglasses don\u2019t have to be high-tech or expensive to offer good protection.Most block a large percentage of UV radiation, but at varying levels, warns Health Canada.\u2018There were times when I thought I was dying.\u2019 Chronic fatigue

hasn\u2019t been back to school since.Her days are spent resting at home.She can only stay up for about 45 minutes at a time before having to rest.\u201cI did take one grade by correspondence but it took me three years to complete.I think the last grade I took was Grade 10 and that was from a tutor.\u201d Crooker reads a lot of books and writes her thoughts on cards.Her illness wasn\u2019t diagnosed until November 1992 when she met Dr.Byron Hyde, a CFS specialist.\u201cOnce I knew what I had, I could pace myself and I knew what I had to do to cope with it,\u201d Crooker says.\u201cBefore 1 knew 1 had CFS I thought I might have multiple sclerosis, arthritis or lupus.And there were times when I thought I was dying.\u201d But she\u2019s not.In fact, she\u2019s a little

The RECORD\u2014 Friday, April 7, 1995\u20149 Prosperity Rebekah Lodge No.32 holds regular meeting and successful card party COWANSVILLE \u2014 The regular meeting of Prosperity Rebekah Lodge No.32 was held in the Fraternal Hall, Cowansville, on March 20 with Sister Jessie Robitaille N.G.in the absence of Sister Marilyn Mahannah.Lodge opened with the Regalia Drill and Sister Winnie Holliday was Color Bearer in the absence of Sister Edith Fuller.15 officers, 4 courtesy officers and 2 Altar Bearers answered the roll call and 19 Past Noble Grands were present.The minutes of the last meeting were read and with one correction, were approved.Sister Flo Ewings fell on the street and broke a bone in her shoulder, Sister Leila Peron has a very bad cold.Sister Mary Downer is still in hospital.Sister Darline Lefebvre\u2019s family feels she has given up which is too bad and Sister Gertrude Waldron\u2019s daughter is not well at all.Sisters Jessie Robitaille and June Royea had visited Sister Ethel Redmile in Dunham and found her real well and also Sister Joyce Wil- How to treat a cluster headache By Peter H.Gott, M.D.DEAR DR.GOTT: What is the cause of cluster headaches?Is there a cure?\u2019 DEAR READER: Cluster headaches are, in general, severe and throbbing, occur without warning, are probably related to migraine, and appear \u2014 as the name implies \u2014 in groups of three or four, often with extended periods of relief between the clusters.The cause is unknown.Many specialists have had success in preventing cluster headaches with prescription beta-blockers (Inderal and others) or calcium-channel blockers (Calan and others).Acute attacks are usually treated with pain medication (Indocin and others).oxygen or cortisone.Patients with cluster headaches should, in my opinion, be under the care of neurologists.To give you more information, I am sending you a free copy of my Health Report \u201cHeadaches.\u201d Other readers who would like a copy should send $2 plus a long, self-addressed, stamped envelope to P.O.Box 2433, New York, NY 10163.Be sure to mention the title.DEAR DR.GOTT: How is any rare disease given the attention to be researched?ADEAR READER: This is an excel- leht question.which I cannot answer.\u201cDuring my residency training about 100 years ago, I met a healthy young athlete, an Olympic oarsman.who was found to have a large heart on X- ray.His doctor was concerned that the superbly trained rower might have heart disease.We tested the athlete up, down and around, and found to our surprise that, far from having cardiac disease.he had a super-normal heart that had grown large and beat slowly from training.As a result of this experience, I published a report on this champion sculler, in which I confirmed the presence of the \u201cathletic heart syndrome\u201d: the predictable consequences of 12/05/95!

Don't trust Watch the reptile thine enemies By Phillip Alder By Phillip Alder Finley Peter Dunne, the American journalist and humorist, said, \u201cTrust everybody, but cut the cards.\u201d Maybe he didn\u2019t réalize that once the cards are shuffled, cutfing can only alter who will get which hand.It won't alter the four hands.So if the deck has been rigged, cutting gives you just a 50-50 chance to get the godd hands.Should you trust your opponents at the bridge table?Often, yes.It is rare for a defender to falsecard early in the play.Knowing so little about the deal, each defender wants to help his partner to construct an accurate picture of the distribution.However, there are times when a defender should be treated with suspicion.Today's deal \u2018highlights one such situation.Defending against six hearts, West led the unbid suit.East won the first trick with the club king and switched to a spade.How should South have continued?South\u2019s three-heart rebid was game- invitational, not forcing.So North's jump to a slam was ambitious.After winning the second trick in the dummy, declarer cashed dummy\u2019s heart king and led a heart to his jack.However, West produced the queen: one down.South, of course, was unhappy to lose the game bonus.But North was even more unhappy to lose the slam bonus.\u201cIf East held queen-third of hearts, how do you think he would have defended?\u201d asked North.The dime dropped.\u201cOf course,\u201d said South.\u201cHe would have led the club ace at trick two, forcing dummy to ruff.How silly of me not to think of it.\u201d = ©.1995 by NEA Ine.BRIDGE PHILLIP A few weeks ago, I mentioned filming a saltwater crocodile in the Northern Territory of Australia.Perhaps some of you expected me to feature the defensive technique that is in today\u2019s deal.It was originally played in a tournament in 1951 to celebrate the Australian Jubilee.In the Acol system being used then, an opening bid of one no-trump was weak, showing 12-14 high-card points.South\u2019s jump rebid of two no-trump showed 17-18 points.With 19, he would have leapt all the way to three no-trump.West led the club seven: 10, three (low from an odd number), two.South had eight tricks but had to establish the ninth without letting East gain the lead for a fatal club return through the king.South cashed dummy\u2019s heart queen: three, two, 10.He continued with the heart six and the spotlight was on East.If he played low, South would finesse his seven, establishing four heart tricks \u2014 and nine in all \u2014 while keeping East off the lead.However, an alert East rose with the heart jack to swallow his partner's nine.This play is called a Crocodile Coup because the defender acts like a crocodile opening his jaws to capture his prey.After winning perforce with the heart king, declarer continued with the heart ace, getting the bad news.South turned his attention to spades, cashing the ace and king.Now West had to be on his toes, throwing his queen under the king.After this, East had to win a trick and the contract was defeated.Any pair who found this defense deserved the points that were showered upon them.Phillip Alder\u2019s fiew book, \u201cGet Smarter at Bridge,\u201d is available, autographed upon request, for $14.95 from P.O.Box 169, Roslyn Hts., NY 11577-0169.© 1995 by NEA Inc BRIDGE PHILLIP ALDER CARRIERS WANTED TO DELIVER Becord Please apply to: Call Collect \u201cCirculation race The Record needs carriers for the following routes: URGENT Carriers Needed in Cowansville Lennoxville Rte.299 Lennoxville Rte.180 * Delivery Only * No Collection.Department (819) 569-9528 Rawlings and Ruby Whiting of Sherbrooke.Mrs.Irene Perkins enjoyed Sunday dinner with her son Lloyd and his wife and family in Lennoxville on March 26.Mrs.Garnet Morrison celebrated her 89th birthday on March 27.Her daughter and husband Mr.and Mrs.Ulric Nutbrown of Kinnear\u2019s Mills visited her.Steven Patrick and Miss Hilda Laroche of Lennoxville were afternoon visitors of Mrs.Reta For- grave.DON'T GIVE GIY GIVE PROOF OF YOUR LOVE TO DISABLED CHILDREN (ESTER ig SEALS Geo Metro .ee.- with overdrive © Dual airbags * Fuel economy champion (5.4 | / 100 km in city) * Side door guard beams 5-10 PICK-UP ¢ 2.2 | engine with overdrive ¢ Block heater ¢ Side door guard beams © Airbag 5 Roadside «-\u2026-3-DOOR ¢ 5-speed manual transmission ® 8 & 6 8 0 OO 680 nO Hse + 5-speed manual transmission 702 90) Mag) Mal?Iw ALL NEW CARS IN \"DYSON & ARMSTRONG FROM APRIL 5th TO APRIL 14th T or TE j 912,295 or HP HP Lumina Van
