Smith was responding to a question in the legislature from New Democrat Gary Lauk (Vancouver Centre) who said there has been “persistent harassment of law firms for contributions” to the Socreds. Lauk referred to two let- ters sent by Vancouver law- yer Michael Warren to col- leagues in the legal profes- sion seeking donations be- cause the Socreds have an urgent need for money. When such letters arrive at law firms excluded from the list of those doing luer- ative legal work for the publicly-operated Insurance Corp. of B.C., “there is the smell of blackmail on the part of the Social Credit Party,” Lauk said.

Smith to give an assurance that “these contributions are not being hoisted from the law firms on the basis that they would get legal work from ICBC or any other Crown corporation, agency or the government itself.” GIVES REASONS Smith said the criterion for getting ICBC work is com- petent legal service at a reasonable fee. Nobody was removed from the list of law firms getting ICBC work, he said.

The report for the five years starting April 1 was submitted to the legislature Tuesday by Forests Minister Jack Heinrich. Currently, the report says, about 45 per cent of forested areas denuded by logging, fire and pests is replanted and the rest is left to nature. “Planting will be increased so that more than 60 per cent of current denudation will be planted and less than 40 per cent will be left for natural restocking,” the report says. It spells out some of the details of the government's forestry plans and elaborates on the new $20 million forest stand management fund an- nounced in the March 20 budget. The fund will be for for- estry activities under all such as silviculture, range and recreation man- agement, the report says. REMOVE BRUSH The fund can also cover inereased brush and weed removal, additional care and management of forest land in tree farm licence areas with an emphasis on employment and training programs. A major goal is to plant 200 million seedlings annually in 1987-88 through 1990-91, the report says. Unseasonably cold wea- ther last November killed an estimated 19 million seed- lings in ministry and com- mercial nurseries and the ministry plans to spend $2 million in the fiscal year and beginning April 1 to sow re placement seedlings.

The setback sliced Cleveland's lead in the race for the final Eastern Con ference playoff spot to 1% games over Chicago Bulls, who defeated New York Knicks 111-98, and Indiana, which was idle. It also was business as usual for Sacramento Kings, who climbed out of the Mid west Division cellar by re cording their 11th consecu tive Tuesday night home court victory, a 116-99 rout of Portland Trail Blazers. Elsewhere, it was: Los Angeles Lakers 121, Denver Nuggets 115; Milwaukee Bucks 118, New Jersey Mets 105; and Golden State War riors 125, Detroit Pistons 121 Wilkins scored 22 points as the Hawks took a 51-40 half. time lead and added 12 in the third period as Atlanta led 79-67.

LAKERS 121 NUGGETS 115 James Worthy scored 11 of his 30 points in the final seven minutes as the Lakers ended Denver's three-game winning streak Canada leads world curling championship By GERRY SUTTON KELOWNA (CP) — Swe- den and the United States found out quickly Tuesday that it does not pay to make mistakes against Marilyn Darte and her Canadian team from St. Catharines, Ont. Geri Tilden of St. Paul, Minn., made several of them in the fourth round of the world women's curling cham- pionship and it resulted in a 186 triumph for Canada. Along the way, Darte stole a total of nine points — two in the first end, four in the fifth and three in the ninth. In the fifth round before a sellout crowd of 2,000 fans, Inga Arfwidsson and her Swedish rink missed a num- ber of shots in the ninth end, Canada struck like lightning by scoring six points, and it ended in a 12-5 triumph and a 50 record after three days “Being down one (Sweden trailed 6-5) when we've got the hammer, we expected for sure she would put her rocks out front in an attempt to steal ts with come- around shots later in the end. “She put a couple out front at first, then she started playing in the house. I don't her first two shots in the ninth end. Maud Norlander, who throws last stones al- though she plays third, then missed a double takeout and was heavy on a draw, en- abling Darte to draw to an open house for six. Capitals in By The Canadian Press First place was on the line and Washington Capitals rose to the oceasion. The Capitals scored three goals in two minutes and 27 seconds of the third period to defeat Boston Bruins 6-3 Tuesday night and move past idle Philadelphia Flyers into first place in the National Hockey League's Patrick Division. Washington and Philadel. phia each have six games re- maining, and the Capitals lead by one point. “It may come down to that final game (of the schedule) in Philadelphia” on April 6, said Washington coach Bryan Murray. In other games, it was Ed- monton Oilers 7 Detroit Red Wings 2, St. Louis Blues 2 New York Islanders 0, and New York Rangers 5 New Jersey Devils 4. BROKE IT OPEN “With the game on the line, we really broke it open,” Murray said of his team's three-goal burst before 15,888 spectators in the 18,130-seat Capital Centre at Landover, Md. Bengt Gustafsson rebound- ed his own shot on a power- play breakaway to snap a 3-3 tie at 14:23, following a hooking penalty against Gord Kluzak. Bobby Gould, at 14:35, and Craig Laughlin, at 16:50, added insurance. The call against Kluzak in- furiated coach Butch Goring of the Bruins, who are third in the Adams Division and in a four-way battle for the final three playoff spots. “They let a lot of other penalties go, then called that one,” Goring fumed. “That blew us right out of the tub.” Al Haworth, Dave Chris- tian — with his 39th goal — and Lou Franceshetti also scored for the Capitals. Dave Pasin, Keith Crowder and Kluzak had Boston's goals. OILERS 7 WINGS 2 Mark Messier scored short-handed goals 30 sec onds apart in the second period to snap a 2-2 tie. Mark Napier, who also scored twice, Esa Tikkanen, Paul Coffey and Glenn Anderson Knights edge Sockeyes 8-7 RICHMOND (CP) — Kevin Melrose scored his third goal after 10 minutes and 47 sec onds of overtime Tuesday night to give Penticton Knights an 8-7 victory over Richmond Sockeyes and a stranglehold on their British Columbia Junior Hockey League final series. The power-play goal gave the Knights a 3-1 edge in the best-of-seven series which continues tonight at Pentic ton. The teams exchanged goals in the first 10-minute overtime period that saw police called after fans pelted the Penticton bench and the ice surface with eggs. The second overtime period was a sudden-death affair. Peter DeGraaf, David Shi elds, John DePoureq, Bill Thomas and Rod Summers also scored for the Knights, the defending BCJHL cham pions. Dan Baker led the Sock eyes with a three-goal per. formance and Kevin Weremy scored twice. Dan Matias and Ron Popoff completed the scoring before 1,173 fans. “You can't take penalties and win hockey games, but it was close,” Sockeyes coach Muzz MacPherson said of Melrose’s goal. “It’s a big let down.” The Sockeyes tied the game 5-5 after trailing 5-3 at the end of the second period and tied it 66 with two minutes remaining. Then they took the lead 10 seconds into overtime. “In the regular season that would have been it,” said MacPherson “But we changed our rules for the playoffs. “Td rather be in their shoes than ours, but we're not giving anything up, either. When they drop the puck (tonight) we'll be there to play.” The RCMP dog squad was called to the rink after in- cidents on the ice and in the stands after regulation time. Knights coach Rick Kozu back was ejected when he went on to the ice to accost game officials after a Pentic ton player was injured. Penticton player James Burnett was also ejected af. ter he tried to fight with Sockeyes Pat Austin and Ba- ker. He later went into the stands to confront a group of fans but was led away by security personnel. Some Knights threatened to climb the glass around the boards to go into the stand when eggs were thrown at them. The crowd calmed down when the police ar- rived. One youth was taken into custody, police said. Canada’s today games were against Denmark and Norway. The Canadians play France and Scotland on Thursday.
