VANCOUVER (CP) — B.C. coach
Larry Donovan is looking for a
“wide-open, get-after-em” Grey Cup
game between the Lions and the
Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

“We've had quite a series with
them,” said Donovan. “They made us
look real bad on a couple of occasions.

And we've done a pretty good job

The two teams are set to meet
Sunday in Ottawa's Lansdowne Park
to decide the Canadian Football
League championship.

The former Western
rivals split their four regular-season
games this season, with the Lions
winning 45-24 in their final meeting
at B.C. Place Stadium.

The Lions, who beat Saskatchewan
and Edmonton in the playoffs, fin
ished the regular season with a 10-8
mark. They were 5-7 at one point in
September but have won seven of
their last eight games since then.

Winnipeg, 9-9, won a berth in the
Grey Cup by beating Hamilton and
Toronto.

The Bombers are known for their
defensive play but Donovan singled
out some offensive players as keys to
Winnipeg's success.

his club's departure for Ottawa.
LIKES OFFENCE

“So when they've got those three
players in their lineup, they're a
pretty potent offence. I think it's
going to be a wide-open, get-after.
‘em kind of football game.”

The Bombers, whose defence held
the powerful Toronto attack to 112
yards net offence in last week's
Eastern final, will have to contain
B.C. backs Tony Cherry and Anthony
Parker. The pair combined for 1,740
yards and 11 touchdowns this season.

“They have a strong front seven
and James West is an excellent line-
backer,” said Parker. “They'll be
tough to run against, but we had
success against them last time we
played and I don't see any reason
why we can't duplicate those ef-
forts.”

Donovan didn’t take the bait when
asked if he had a message for the
Bombers, but veteran guard Gerald
Roper, couldn't resist.

“The Bombers will be pumped up
and my buddy (linebacker) James
West likes to yap and talk to us. I'd
just like to say, ‘Come ready to play
Sunday, because it’s going to be one
heckuva game.’ ”

Lemieux
rejects
offer

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Tensions
between Mario Lemieux and the
Pittsburgh Penguins have grown
since the star centre ended contract
negotiations with the National Hoc
key League club.

Penguins general manager Tony
Esposito said Lemieux and Lem
ieux's agent Tom Reich rejected an
eight-year contract that would have
paid Lemieux $20 million over, 20
years.

The Pittsburgh Press reported
Tuesday the team captain also
turned down a $14-million deal over
eight seasons, but neither Reich nor
Lemieux would talk numbers.

Lemieux, 23, the NHL's most
valuable player and scoring cham-
pion last season, is in the third year
of a five-year, $3.2 million contract.
He can become a free agent after the
1990-91 season, but the Penguins
have the right of first refusal to
match any team’s offer.

Lemieux wants to be paid close to
what Wayne Gretzky of the Los
Angeles Kings is making. After
being traded from the Edmonton
Oilers to the Kings last summer,
Gretzky negotiated an. eight-year,
$20-million contract, the largest in
hockey history.

He attempted to deny local reports that he's
returning to the CFL, possibly as the general manager
of the Lions, a publicly owned team which is deep in
debt and may be sold after the 1988 season to private
interests.

SELLS FOOD

Kapp, who dabbled in the movie industry after

retiring from pro football, operates a bar-restaurant in
n Jose, Calif., with his brother Larry.

“I do know that I'm addicted to the game like all us
crazy guys are,” Kapp said. “I'm very family orientated
right now, with a couple of fruit trees in the back yard
and time to spend with my family.

“But the game of football, once you get it in your
blood, is pretty hard to get out of it

He said his visit to Vancouver, where he took in the
announcement of the shifting of the B.C. Sports Hall of
Fame to B.C. Place Stadium, had nothing to do with
football. Kapp is a member of the hall as part of the 1964
Lions. team.

Kapp said he's impressed with the leadership of

Matt Dunigan, the B.C, quarterback who led the Lions
by the Saskatchewan Roughriders 42-18 in the Western
Division semifinal in Regina last weekend.

“Dunigan, that’s a funny name for a Mexican

rterback,” Kapp, of Hispanic heritage himself, said
Sokingly. “He's doing a great job of leading the team and
they could get to the Grey Cup.”
ARMCHAIR PIVOT

Kapp said his only connection with the NFL is
watching the game on television from his rocking chair.

Asked to pick the best quarterback in pro football,
Kapp paused before saying, with a wink of the eye, “the
last guy I saw play really well was a guy named
Dunigan.”

“You need mobility at quarterback,” added Kapp.
“You don't need to be as crazy as I was, maybe, but you
must be mobile because of the speed and quickness of
the defensive line.”

Kapp was head coach of ‘his alma mater, the
California Bears, for several years, and also is a member
of the Canadian Football Hall of Fame and Museum,
inducted in 1984.

Salisbury

WINNIPEG (CP) — Sean Salisbury has never
been introduced to James Parker or Gregg Stumon
of the British Columbia Lions and the Winnipeg Blue
Bomber quarterback hopes he doesn't make their
acquaintance during Sunday's Grey Cup game.

“You have to establish a run,” Salisbury said as
the Bombers prepared for their CFL showdown with
the Lions in Ottawa.

“You just can't drop back and throw the ball
every single down — it makes it too difficult for your
linemen.”

Parker, the Lions’ cat-quick defensive end, and
linebacker Stumon, last year’s Schenley outstanding
defensive player, like to warmly embrace opposition
quarterbacks. They also like to leave them sprawled
on the ground, something Salisbury wants to avoid.

“I'm not going to press and think I have to be a
miracle worker,” the long, lean former University of
Southern California quarterback said after stepping
out of a sauna in the Bomber clubhouse.

“I'm just going to have to go out there and play
my game.

SPLIT SEASON

Winnipeg and British Columbia split their four
games this season but Salisbury didn’t take the field
against the Lions. He was on Winnipeg’s practice
roster for the first half of the year and was sidelined
with bad ribs for their final meeting, a 45-24
regular-season ending victory for the Lions.

“I personally don’t think it’s a disadvantage,”
said Salisbury, who completed 18 of 34 passes for 223
yards and no touchdowns as Winnipeg upset the
Toronto Argonauts 27-11 in the Eastern final.

The responsibility of keeping Salisbury healthy,
productive and out of the grasp of the B.C. defence
will fall on the broad shoulders of Winnipeg’s
offensive line, anchored by 14-year veteran Nick
Bastaja.

set to run

Although Salisbury has an arm like a rocket
launcher, he isn't as fleet of foot as Lions’
quarterback Matt Dunigan, who can outrun trouble.
This presents some challenges for the Bomber
blocking schemes, said Bastaja.

“We'll have to establish something of a running
attack in order to diversify our offensive attack a
little bit,” he said.

“They run a lot of defensive schemes that rely
on confusion. With guys like Stumon and Parker, if
you're not quite sure who to block, that’s all they
require, that moment's hesitation. They're so quick
they're on you like a cat on a mouse.”

NEEDS OFFENCE

Bomber coach Mike Riley agreed his offence will
have to play one of its best games of the year to beat
the Lions, who outscored the Edmonton Eskimos
37-19 in the Western final and the Saskatchewan
Roughriders 42-18 in the semi-final.

“They have a lot of different looks and great
speed on defence,” said the boyish-looking Riley, who
is taking the Bombers to the CFL championship in
only his second season as coach.

“They're going to have to be at the top of their
game.”

One player Salisbury will be looking for is wide
receiver James Murphy, who hauled in six catches
for 102 yards against Toronto.

“T'm sure they are going to play a lot of two-deep
and three-deep zone,” Murphy said about the
coverage he expects from the Lions.

“I have great respect for (defensive backs)
Andre Francis and Keith Gooch. They are
aggressive, they are smart. They've been in the
game long enough to know what's going on.
Offensively, if we continue to play as well as we have
for the last weeks, it's going to be a real good football
game.”

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Doctors at a
Philadelphia hospital described a
patient's death as a “diagnostic mi
adventure of a high magnitude.

The 5,000 workers at a Chrysler
AMC plant found out a new “career
alternative enhancement program”
meant their plant was closing and
they were out of jobs.

Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) re
ferred to capital punishment as “our
society's recognition of the sanctity
of human life.”

These are some examples of what
U.S. English teachers recognized as
the year's worst doublespeak.

“We're corrupting what language
is supposed to do, and that’s com:
municate,” said William Lutz, a Rut
gers University professor who head
ed the public doublespeak committee
of the National Council of Teachers of
English, based in Urbana, Ill. “We.
cannot function without language.”

First prize in the 1988 Double
speak awards went to U.S. military
officials for their explanations of the
July 3 downing of an Iranian airliner
by the U.S. Vincennes in the Persian
Gulf.

REPORTS OBFUSCATED

Lutz said both officials’ reports and
a news conference on the incident
were filled with “the doublespeak of
omission, distortion, contradiction
and misdirection.”

Even so, Defence Secretary Frank
Carlucci told the public, “We chose
not to withhold anything,” Lutz said.

An anonymous Reagan adminis.
tration official captured second place
for denying the administration had
covered up Honduran military offi
cials’ involvement in drug crimes.

The spokesman said: “It wasn't
that there was a cover-up. It's just
that people knew certain questions
shouldn't be asked.”

Though nearly impossible to pick a
favorite doublespeak, Lutz said the
stockbroker's description of the Oc
tober 1987 crash as a “fourth quarter
equity retreat” deserved recognition
for “sheer chutzpah.”

Lutz advised the public to fight
back.

“You have to start laughing at
these turkeys,” he said.

Dec. 2 and runs until Dec. 17. The
exhibit, entitled “Travelling Light,”
features| photographs from a trip
taken in September 1988, when
Brooks hitchhiked to Ontario for four
weeks to visit friends and relatives
and to look for new and visually
stimulating subjects to photograph.

A graduate from the photography
program of Ryerson Polytechnical
Institute, Brooks was born and edu
cated in Sarnia, Ont. He moved to
Nelson in August, 1985 to “find some
peace and quiet” and has found both
peace and quiet as well as artistic
stimulation in his new home.

The exhibition features both black
and white and color photographs
from locations from Nelson to On
tario, chosen from hundreds and
hundreds of shots.

“I love to just walk with my
camera and photograph whatever I
see,” says Brooks, who works with
foster children and in a local book
store when he is not taking pictures.
