4 as Castlégar News June 5, 1985 “BIG MAC” RECOGNIZES ITS ROOTS OAK BROOK, ILL. (AP) — Can you imagine pulling up to the Golden Arches for a “Blue Ribbon Bur- ger?” It may have been that way if, 17 years ago, Es ther Glickstein Rose hadn't said “Big Mac” when a harried executive dashing to a board meeting asked her for a name nomination for a top-secret new double burger with a secret sauce. “Blue Ribbon Burger” was the leading candidate, says Rose, who then was 21-year-old Esther Glick stein, a secretary at Me Donald's Corp. Rose says everyone laughed, but the name be. came famous, even though she didn't. Rose, now a 38-year-old Glenview housewife and mother, finally got her due as the 30th anniversary of the chain rolled around — a plaque etched with a like ness of the best-selling sandwich and french fires between the Golden Ar ches, and a message thank. ing her for the contribu tion. Rose says she never asked for money and the company never offered any. “It's more other people who think I should get paid,” she said. “But I just laugh it off. I'm just thrill ed with this.” PAPER UNION SAYS Reinvest in Canada OTTAWA (CP) — Federal and provincial governments million to become a partner in a newsprint mill in i i ) should get tough with big forest tate. to make sure they reinvest profits and create jobs in Canada instead of building new plants outside the country, the president of the Canadian Paperworkers Union said Tuesday. He said several other forestry giants — including Abitibi-Price, C: i Bathurst and MacMillan-Bloedel — have also made major investments outside Canada worth more than $900 million.

KOOTENAY SAVINGS PERSONAL WOOOOGOCE = James Buch told the C i on fisheries and forests there was an “alarming trend” among Canada’s giant multinational forest companies to shi investments outside the country after enjoying years of generous taxpayer assistance. Buchgnan said he was worried the Conservative governmént’s first budget, with its aim to free the private sector from government-imposed restraints, would only worsen that trend. Seniors pensions sensitive issue TORONTO (CP) — The Mulroney government will review its unwinding of in dexed old age pensions if the measure proves to cause un- due hardship, Finance Min. ister Michael Wilson said Tuesday. Wilson told a pension con- ference that seniors will have to do their part in getting the country's fiscal house in order. And allowing Canada's deficit to grow unchecked would place a heavier burden on pensioners because it would likely lead to renewed inflation. A measure to limit index- ation of pensions to anything over a three-per-cent in- crease in the consumer price index has emerged as the most sensitive issue in the May 23 budget. Under intense questioning from conference delegates and reporters alike, Wilson defended the measure as being in the best interests of everyone, seniors included. But “as we maintain our vigilance against inflation, we will monitor the adequacy of payments and increase them as circumstances war. rant and resources allow.” GOES FURTHER Later in a news confere-. nce, he went further and said the modified indexation would be reviewed if it turns out to be a hardship. “The purpose of indexation is to shelter Canadians from the effects of rising prices,” Wilson said. “But in fulfilling this purpose, indexation to the CPI is causing undesired consequences — it is a major cause of our rising deficits and soaring national debt — deficits and debt which in turn threaten to cause future runaway inflation. Wilson said he believes the government has found a r promise be He cited the case of Great Lakes Forest Products, a Canadian Pacifie subsidiary located in Thunder Bay, Ont., which announced last fall it was considering investing $25 Rules toughen on danger loads PENTICTON (CP) — Tougher federal regulations governing the transportation of dangerous goods will be in place by July 1, the Fire Chiefs Association of British Columbia was told. Ronald Switzer, one of 13 Transport Canada inspectors who will enforce the new regulations, said they govern the preparation, packaging, handling and transportation of dangerous goods by truck. New provincial legislation regarding the transportation of dangerous goods is ex pected to be in place this summer, Switzer added. Trucks will have to sport placards that state what goods are being carried, and the goods will have to be labelled. Documentation re- garding the load being hauled will also have to be carried by drivers. Anyone contravening the new regulations may face maximum fines of $50,000 for a first offence, $100,000 for a second offence and, in certain instances, large fines and jail terms. There are nine classifica. tions of dangerous goods un. der the regulations, including explosives, flammable liquids tween sheltering pensioners from inflation and protecting the national interest. Cable TV guilty SALMON ARM (CP) — Shuswap Cable Ltd., caught in a federal-provincial juris- diction wrangle, was fined $1,500 Tuesday after being convieted in provincial court on a charge of receiving and distributing a broadcast sig nal without a valid licence. The verdict and fine fol lowed a two-day trial. The charge was laid under the federal Broadcast Act in February on instructions from the office of the Solici. tor General. It centred on a jurisdi tional battle between the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission and the prov. inces over which has the right to licence cable opera: tors. Shuswap Cable was oper ating under a licence issued by the British Columbia Util. ities Commission and offered programming different from the CRTC-approved package. Shuswap Cable said it will appeal the conviction, and plans to continue broadcast ing until the appeal is heard andr LITTLE TRAINING Switzer said many people who handle dangerous goods have little or no training. Af ter July 1, those people will have the direct supervision of a trained person or will have to undergo training them. selves. Inspectors will be allowed to demand certifi cates that prove adequate training The fire chiefs also were told that although one in five fires in B.C. is caused by arson, provisions in the Crim: inal Code relating to arson offenses are inadequate. Dan Lemieux, manager of the western division of the Insurance Crime Prevention Bureau, said the last Crim. inal Code changes connected to arson crimes were made in the mid-1950s. He said Section 89 of the code does not include motor vehicles in its list of personal property items related to ar- son. “If you set fire to your brother-in-law’s car because you don't like what he’s doing to your sister, you can only be charged with mis chief,” Lemiux said. He also criticized the ab- sence of a Criminal Code pro- vision for people in posses- sion of Molotov cocktails — makeshift explosive devices. He said a person can be caught carrying the Molotov cocktail, or getting ready to throw one, but no offence has been committed until the cocktail has been hurled. Lemieux said in a later interview that code sections regarding arson are general- ly inadequate, unclear and outdated. He said he hopés the law “Our forests present us with a fine opportunity to provide jobs and earnings for the future,” he told the committee. “But we must not allow control of the forest and its wealth to be exercised primarily by multinational corpor- ations which have no stake in this country. “Government must set down tough rules that force companies using Canadian resources to reinvest profits here. In return for any subsidy, direct or tax-based, there must be job guarantees or equity participation by government.” Buchanan, noting that Great Lakes Forest Products had been given $48 million by governments during the past few years to improve and modernize mills in Ontario, said governments should stop giving away those kinds of incentives. . Although Canadian firms have failed to modernize as rapidly as U.S. and European companies and are therefore less productive, most big paper companies are still profitable enough to finance modernization investment from their own earnings, he said. He said governments should put all their forestry money only into reforestation to arrest the decline of the resource base and ensure Canada retained an exploitable forest base in the future. “If we lose our forests, we lose our country or any semblance of it. It's that important.” Six vie for licence VICTORIA — Six tenders bution to provincial reven- have been received by the Ministry of Forests for a forest licence in the Koot- enay Lake Timber Supply Area.

(CP) — The pilot of a CF-18 fighter jet escaped injury Tuesday when he ejected during take- off at Canadian Forces Base Cold Lake. Lt.-Col. Dixon Kenny, 40, of Vancouver ejected just before the jet crashed and burned at the end of the mili- tary base runway, 220 kil ometres northeast of Edmon- ton. Damage to the $25-million, high-technology jet, which was bound for Canadian For. ces Base Goose Bay in Labra dor, was extensive.

Sherstobitoff was never in trouble Sunday, begin- ning with a two-stroke ad ge and quickly wideni the margin to five strokes by the seventh hole.

BLUE JAYS WIN AGAIN Martinez breaks out of May slump TORONTO (CP) — With five hits in his last 11 at-bats after suffering through a 0-for-May slump, Buck Martinez can afford to enjoy a laugh or two over his recent misfortune and other offensive slides in his career. The veteran catcher, who went 0-for-32 last month, belted a pair of singles and a solo home run Tuesday night to help spark Toronto Blue Jays to a 9-2 American League baseball victory over Minnesota Twins. “I remember coming into Toronto while I was with the (Milwaukee) Brewers in 1979 and I was hitting 46 (.046) with no homers, no runs batted in, no nothing,” recalled Martinez, celebrating his first multiple-hit game of the year. “I think it was Ben Oglivie who handed me a bunch of change one day and I had no idea what the significance of it was until I counted it and it added up to 46 cents. “Then, when my batting average was flashed on the scoreboard, some of the guys used to huddle together on the bench and say, ‘Man, 46, it’s cold in Toronto tonight.’ I went on to hit .270 that year and I just hope I can do it again this year.” Batting .095 heading into the game against Minnesota, Martinez said he had an inkling he was going to have a good night at the plate when his broken-bat blooper fell in for a base hit in the third inning against loser Frank Viola, 6-5. “After I hit that, I said to myself, ‘If no one catches that I have a good chance at having a good night,’ ” Martinez said. Battery-mate Jim Clancy, 2-2, also enjoyed one of his more memorable nights of the season. The Toronto right-hander, using his fastball almost exclusively, sur rendered only four hits. He walked one and struck out three in his eight-inning stint. HURLS HARDER “T've been throwing my fastball a little harder and a little more consistently all year,” said Clancy, who underwent an appendectomy late in spring training. “I was really able to stay in on the hitters, so if they'd hit it they'd either jam themselves or not hit it real well.” Minnesota manager Billy Gardner, whose club snapped a 10-game losing streak Sunday, said, “There's not much you can do with four hits. Clancy's got two wins this season and they're both against us. We've got to start hitting and start pitching, it’s as simple as that. We've got the players who can do the job, but they're going to have to start doing it consistently.” The Blue Jays began their 14-hit assault with a three-run fourth inning a: st Viola, now winless in nine career starts against Toronto. Willie Upshaw's two-run homer, his sixth of the season, and a two-run double by Tony Fernandez signalled the beginning of the end for the Twins. A two-run single by Damaso Garcia off reliever Ron Davis in the seventh pushed Toronto's lead to 5-1 and the Jays added four more in the eighth against Len Whitehouse and Frank Eufemia on George Bell's three-run homer, his 10th of the year, and Martinez's solo shot, his second. Tom Brunansky’s double in the sixth inning and pinch-hitter Mark Salas’s solo homer in the eighth produced Minnesota's runs. Gary Lavelle worked a perfect ninth inning for Toronto. The clubs conclude the two-game series tonight with Mike Smithson, 4-4, facing Doyle Alexander, 6-2, of the Jays. Giants stop Expos 5-1 SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Jose Uribe, San Francisco Giants’ rookie shortshop, raised his batting average to .223 with a pair of run-scoring doubles Tuesday “He's been playing very well, doing a good job in the field,” manager Jim Davenport said after the Giants registered a 5-1 National League baseball victory over Montreal Expos. “His batting average isn't very high, but no one else’s is, either.” The Giants, with their fourth victory in five games, escaped from the NL West cellar. They moved into fifth as Atlanta Braves fell to last place with a 5-3 loss to Chicago Cubs. San Francisco's team batting average is .216, the lowest in major league baseball. But the pitching staff's earned-run average of 2.42 is the best, and over the last six games Giants pitching has allowed only six earned runs. “I think we're starting to hit better now,” said winning pitcher Jim Gott. “Jeff Leonard is hitting the ball hard again. His average may still be under .200 but, who cares, he’s hitting.” Leonard hit .302 last season but is at .194 now after a 1-for-4 Tuesday. He flied out deep to right field once and he singled to open a two-run, fifth-inning rally which wiped out a 10 Montreal lead. Leonard batted cleanup. Rob Deer, a reserve outfielder, made his first big league start at first base in place of benched .174 hitter David Green and was 0-for-3 from the fifth spot in the order. HIRE CONSULTANT Giants’ management is letting a San Jose firm. Sports Enhancement Associates, work with the hitters on an experimental program which began this week and is intended to improve their concentration at the plate. Uribe, who brought a .214 average into the game, sent a hot shot through the legs of Montreal third baseman Tim Wallach for his first double, tying the score 1-1 in the fifth, and doubled home the final two runs of the game in the seventh “If Tim had made that play, I might have got out of that inning,” said losing pitcher Dan Schatzeder, 2-2, who pitched perfect ball during the first four innings. “But the ball didn't come up. It hit the grass and went right through him.” Schatzeder sent the go-ahead run home with a wild pitch on strike three to Gott, who batted with two out in the fifth and swung at a curve ball which broke sharply and hit the plate “It was an 0-2 pitch and it took a crazy hop, a lucky one for us,” Gott said Gott, 3-2, allowed six hits and struck out seven men in his first complete game as a Giant. The only Montreal run, which scored on Vance Law's sacrifice fly in the first, was unearned because of an error by Leonard in left field. In the fourth, however, Leonard threw out Hubie Brooks as he tried to go from first to third on a Terry Francona single. An inning earlier, an umpire's call went against the Expos on a force play at second, ending a scoring threat. Television replays backed up U.L. Washington's contention he beat the throw “He was safe by three feet-plus, and we would have had Brooks coming up with the bases loaded,” manager Buck Rodgers said
