I felt bad about it. Of course I wouldn't want to do things like this again. I just have to take my lesson and not do it again. Perron said the incident will help a young team like the Canadiens grow. “I think it's good for any club to have some turmoil at one time of the year,” he said. “If you go through and solve the problem the team is going to grow up @ lot faster, the team will mature.” The soft spoken, apologetic Lemieux who talked to reporters contrasted with the player who openly feuded with Perron in a/fame Saturday against the Hartford Whalers. Angry oyer not getting enough ice time, Lemieux first argued with the coach on the bench near the end of the second period, During the break, heated words were exchanged in Perron's office. Lemieux then returned to the dressing room, kicked over an ash tray and smashed a few hockey sticks, voicing his displeasure with Perron. DRESSED DOWN Perron ordered Lemieux to remove his uniform and sit out the rest of the game. Montreal general manager Serge Savard suspended the bruising, Buckingham, Que., native indefinitely and he missed Monday's game in Minnesota. Lemieux met with Savard Monday and joined the team Tuesday in Winnipeg. ae feud is over,” said a smiling Perron, a small problem along the way. Everything is pee control, There is no more problem and the case is closed.” The incident will serve as a lesson for the younger Canadiens, said the coach. “I think the players will keep it in the back of their minds for the rest of their careers. They'll be better players because of it.” Whether Lemieux will play tonight against the Jets remains a mystery. “We'll think a little more about it,” Perron said with a grin. Lemieux seemed content to take what ever fate was dealt him. “The coach will have the last call on that. I will respect what he does.” Green Fees $8 and $12 CHECK Gur LOW TIES Hl ARROW Membership Rates Early Bird Until April 15 VALLEY VIEW GOLF CLUB © Winlow B.C. — 226-7241 Popoff goal saves Shell Senior curlers post two ties 4 mM march 16,1900 CastlégarNews 13 Castlegar Aquanauts License No. 62514 BINGO Saturday, March 19 NEXT BINGO MAY 14 pte Arena Complex Early Bird 6 p.m. ¢ Regular 7 p.m. SAME PAYOUTS AS PREVIOUS BINGOS! 60% Payout Early Birds 60% Payout Specialty Games By CasNews Staff Wayne Popoff scored with just over four minutes re. maining in the game to give Woodland Park Shell a 6-6 tie with Hi Arrow Arms in CRHL hockey action at the Community Complex Mon day night.

By JOHN DALZIEL The first full week of the last competition saw some really close games and two ties, both on Thursday after- noon. Obedkoff tied with Mc- Gillivray and Leckie tied with Verzuh. However, due to the points system used this season, Verzuh was de- clared the winner. There are only two weeks left in the season and it is hoped that everyone will make the effort to attend so that we may wind up in fine style. Two-game winners last week were: Crossley, Culley, Burak, Waterman and IDal- ziel. Waite, Clay, Flynn, Mc- Gauley, Archambault, Mills, Bate and Bradford won one game each.

Ozone thinning WASHINGTON (AP) — High-altitude ozone, which protects humans from skin cancer, has thinned by an average of about 2.3 per cent since 1969 over mid-latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere, scientists said Tuesday. The decline is almost certainly caused by ozone-destroying chemicals, says the report of a panel assembled by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Ozone, a pollutant at ground level, protects life on Earth by blocking the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun at high altitudes. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates that every decline of one per cent in ozone overhead means an eventual increase in skin cancer of five to six per cent. Honda investigated TORONTO (CP) — Transport Canada has been investigating possible sudden acceleratien in Honda Accords since last fall but a government official says the department has not uncovered any mechanical defects. The investigation started after Transport Canada received about six complaints in models made between 1984 and 1987, said Paul Marriner, a department investigator. Workers dissatisfied The chief negotiator for striking CP Rail shop craft workers said Tuesday the railway made “a big mistake” by offering the unions the same percentage of wage hikes as an arbitrator awarded to other railway employees. A rail official said the 3,000 striking employees will get most of a lump-sum back payment with their March 31 paycheques. The retroactive pay for a typical worker will be more than $1,000. The railway announcement prompted a meeting Tuesday night in Calgary attended by 500 workers. Executions opposed OTTAWA (CP) — Prime Minister Brian Mul roney has asked South African President P.W. Botha to stop the hanging of anti-apartheid activists known as the Sharpeville Six. “I appeal to you to use your prerogative as the state president to exercise clemency and ensure that these executions are not carried out,” Mulroney said in his letter, a copy of which was released Tuesday. The South African government announced Monday it would not provide clemency for the one woman and five men who are scheduled to die on Friday. Governments around the world have called on South Africa to spare them. Royals get raise LONDON (AP) — The Queen and her 11 relatives received an average 4.6-per-cent pay raise in Tuesday's annual government budget. Prince Andrew will receive the biggest increase — 73 per cent In all, the Civil List section of the budget allocated the equivalent of $13.3 million to the Royal Family. The Queen received the equivalent of $11 million. The Civil List, announced in Parliament by Chancellor of the Exchequer Nigel Lawson, gave the Queen and nine other members of the royal family four per cent raises. Fighting reported MANAGUA (AP) — About 6,000 Nicaraguan soldiers used helicopters and heavy artillery in a major offensive against Contra rebel forces, but the government denied reports that its troops crossed the border into Honduras. Honduran officials also denied Contra claims that government troops fighting in northern Nicaragua on Tuesday entered Honduran territory. Heavy fighting was reported throughout Nic. aragua’s 15th Military Region, which includes the provinces of Boaco, Chontales, Rio San Juan and Zelaya South. The Contras said government troops had overrun some rebel positions. Workers battle PANAMA CITY (AP) — Public health workers demanding their salaries hurled firebombs at police who responded with gunfire and teargas in a four-hour battle outside a hospital Tuesday. At least 12 people were injured, including a U.S journalist, as hundreds of civil servants took to the streets of the capital to demand their paycheques from the government of de facto leader Gen. Manuel Anthonio Noriega. “Noriega, tyrant, your end is near,” chanted demonstrators, taunting police with cries of “assa sins. Lines cut JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel cut telephone lines connecting foreign countries with the West Bank and Gaza and imposed a travel ban on the Palestinian residents there in a step-up of anti-riot measures in the occupied lands. The restrictions were aimed at hampering Palestine Liberation Organization activists, whom Israel blames for keeping alive anti-occupation unrest that has claimed at least 96 Arab lives in the West Bank and Gaza since Dec. 8.

Protestors wide range of society By MIRO CERNETIG Canadian Press VANCOUVER — Sharon Black, a 45-year-old mother of two who, spends most of her days tending to house and family, isn't the sterotypical environmentalist. But the protesters have now distanced themselves from the review, fearing the process will not deal with all of their concerns. TWO ISSUES “There are two issues,” said Kennedy “Preservation of Rose blames institution VANCOUVER (CP) Provincial NDP House Lead er Mark Rose said Tuesday he would like to sue officials who gave permission for a Riverview Psychiatric Hos pital patient to walk around the institution's grounds. Rose's comment came after his daughter Carmen Rose was attacked Monday as she strolled through a park near the hospital in suburban Co quitlam A 34-year-old patient at the hospital has been charged with sexual assault and com mon assault. “It was only by good luck that (Carmen) wasn't ser iously injured or raped in broad daylight,” said her father, member for Coquit lam-Moody. The 31-year-old woman was walking along a secluded lakeside path with her two young children when a man lunged at her and tried to drag her into the bushes. She said she fought off the man while her hysterical children clung to her. “My attacker was there for only one purpose — it was as if the kids weren't there,” said Rose. Riverview administrator Acton Kilby said the suspect had just returned from a weekend pass, during which he had not taken prescribed medicine. He was given an “extra dose” when he re- turned in an unstable mood Monday morning. Kilby said there would be a review of the incident. Welfare cheques For the last four days, however, she’s been cooling her heels in a Campbell River, B.C., jail cell with six other people on charges of mischief for trying to block exploratory drilling in Strathcona provincial park Black could have been out on bail days@go, but she and her six colleagues turned down the offer on principle. A condition of release is that they remain at least five kilo- metres away from the Cream Silver Mines Ltd. drill site in the central Vancouver Island park “It's stupid,” Black's 19-year-old daughter Mari said Tuesday. “My mother is very law abiding. She's never broken a law in her life. Putting her away for her beliefs is just ridiculous.” At the drill site, a daily battle is being waged as protesters pit themselves against heavy mining equipment Sometimes an elderly woman blows on a harmonica before the protesters move in. There hasn't been any violence. Members of the group Friends of Strathcona simply cross a fence, lie down in the mud and wait for the RCMP to remove or arrest them Occasionally, mine employees offer them hot coffee WIDE RANGE The protesters span a cross-section of society. They parkland and protecting our drinking water.” Cream Silver, which has obtained a B.C. Supreme Court injunction preventing the protesters from interfering with the hunt for gold, silver and other minerals, has promised that it will do everything in its power to prevent environ mental damage. But the protesters believe mining will result in acidic run-off that could poison drinking water in the area. They also fear the park will be logged and mined until it looks more like an industrial park than a natural preserve. The government maintains Strathcona’s future as a park where wolves and deer roam is assured. Environment Ministry spokesman Ron Kawalilak said 192,000 hectares of the 231,000-hectare park is designated as Class A parkland, meaning no logging or mineral exploration can be undertaken. . What remains is called a, recreational area, meaning that it may eventually become Class A parkland, but not until outstanding mineral and logging claims are dealt with It is in that area Cream Silver is drilling. MANY CLAIMS As of January 1983, when a moratorium on develop ment was introduced, there were 396 mineral claims and 21 include doctors, lawyers, carpenters, Black, housewives. “It's all amazingly non-partisan,” geologists and, like said Des Kennedy, a spokesman for the 1,000-member Friends of Strathcona. “The protesters probably represent just about every aspect of the sociological spectrum in B.C. They're not your traditional stereotype of a rabid environmentalist.” So far, 64 British Columbians have been arrested at the drill site on charges such as mischief, said Kennedy. But that hasn't stopped the protesters. They've appeared at the drill site daily since late January. The civil disobedience by white-, blue- and pink-collar protesters has produced results, he said Clearly concerned about the rising toll of arrests, Environment Minister Bruce Strachan has met with the Friends of Strathcona several times and has agreed to hold a public review on the future of B.C.’s oldest provincial park Tough talks predicted VANCOUVER (CP) — British Columbia's strong economic performance in 1987 and optimistic forecasts for this year will lead to “very difficult” contract neg otiations, forecasts a major business organization. The Business Council of B. 1988 Collective Bar gaining Review and Outlook warns that, while the eco- nomy is recovering, the pro- cess is fragile. “B.C.'s strong economy . will fuel labor demands for higher wages,” the report says. “However, employees believe the expected eco nomie growth is very vul nerable to such unknown variables as the recent strength of the Canadian dol. lar and volatile stock mar. kets. “Employers are anxious to avoid a repeat of the hard ships by high fixed wage settlements at the peak of an economic cycle.” This year is also a “water shed year” for B.C. labor re- lations since 38 major agree ments are due to be ne. gotiated, covering 180,000 public and private employees in forestry, pulp and paper, construction and govern ment. All of them will be ne gotiated under the new In dustrial Relations Act, thus giving the Bill Vander Zalm initiated legislation its first major test. The new law allows the government broader powers of inter. vention in labor disputes, including temporary strike and lockout bans in key sec- tors. LESS TIME LOST Council president Jim Matkin said Tuesday he hopes to see continuation of the pragmatism that char- locations where forest companies had licences to cut timber in the recreation area of Strathcona, Kawalilak said Protesters say there is no guarantee the B.C. government won't decide to downgrade the park, something past governments have been prone to do. Who knows what they'll do in the future,” Kennedy said. “This cabinet could change its mind at a drop of a hat. The park was created in 1911 as a counter to Alberta's magnificent parks. No mining was permitted. But the government changed its mind and from 1918 to 1957, prospecting was allowed. Then the park was designated as Class A parkland and mining was blocked once again. In 1965, most of the park was again opened to mining Then, last January, 192,000 hectares were turned into Class A parkland with a protnise from the government it was safe from drills, chainsaws and prospectors acterized B.C.'s labor re. lations last year when the number of worker-days lost was 567,741. That compares with nearly three milllion worker-days lost in 1986, mostly from lengthy forestry and construction disputes. “There exists an unrealis tie attitude that it's ‘catch up time’ among some labor groups,” he said. “Despite increased corporate profits in 1987, employers will resist high fixed wage settlements in what is likely the peak of an economic cycle.” The council's own 1987 database shows private and public sector wage increases averaged two per cent The report also said the Canadian economy now is moving into a high invest ment phase from a high consumption phase in 1987 and 1986. “This implies that business investments will lead the economy in 1988 as con. sumers appear to have sat iated their pent-up demand and may look more closely at their own debt situations.” FORECASTS GROWTH B.C.'s economy grew at an estimated 2.5 per cent, it said, and the outlook for this year forecasts growth in the 2.5-to-3.0 range. Employment continued to rise in B.C. for the third consecutive year as well, and the report quotes Statistics Canada as saying 73,000 more people in B.C. were working by the eggof 1987 “Even though C.’s im mediate economic future ap- pears brighter than in some years, especially in the re source industries, we will not see a return to the same corporate environment and employment relationships seen in the early 1980s.” contracted out VICTORIA (CP) — The government is contracting out the delivery of welfare cheques in the city to two Vancouver agencies, says Social Services Minister Claude Richmond. Richmond said the Down. twon Eastside Residents’ Association and St. James Social Services will oversee the funds for chronic welfare recipients, with recipients participating on a voluntary basis only. But “incentives,” including easier access to other ser vices, will be provided to en courage the recipients to co: operate with the scheme, he said. The project is part of a promise in Tuesday's throne speech to “re-organize the delivery on income assistance and social programs.” Richmond, who said about 200 people have been select ed for the project, wants the program to teach welfare recipients “life skills.” “That includes setting up a bank account, paying the rent, etc., from the monthly cheque,” he said. “It will break the terrible pattern some of them fall into on Welfare Wednesday or Mardi Gras, as some call it.” “DERA and St. James want to help to end the cases in which these people are prey to thieves who roll them the night they get their cheque,” said Richmond. Police shred brutality.notes VANCOUVER CP) — A city police detective shred ded what few notes he made during his investigation of a police brutality complaint, a B.C. Police Commission in- quiry heard on Tuesday. Det. William Young told the commission hearing that he investigated Michael Jac- obsen's complaint that police smashed his kneecap in Sept. 30, 1983, while he was in the drunk tank. Young told the three. member panel that he began questioning officers shortly after he received Jacobsen’s complaint. But when asked about his investigation, Young said he couldn't re- member much. He said the notes he made were shredded when he was transferred from the force's internal affairs squad to another section. Young said the force had an unwritten rule to destroy notes after an internal investigation. “It's not the kind of stuff you leave lying about,” Young said. Asked by deputy chairman David Edgar if notes from other criminal investigations were destroyed, Young re plied:“No.” But he said keeping notes wouldn’t have done much geod in this case because “no one could remember any. thing anyway.” The detective said the duty officers he interviewed didn't remember Jacobsen, nor did they recall any beating. Pressed by commission lawyer Peter Butler, Young conceded it might be a good rule to make notes and hang on to them. The inquiry also heard from John Rice, a prisoner who was in a holding cell nearby when Jacobsen was roughed up nearby Rice said a policeman walked to and fro in front of his cell to block his view. But he said he managed to peer between the officer's legs and saw another cop pick Jacob- sen up “like a puppet” and ram him into the wall several times. Jacobsen, who had three operations to repair his broken knee, launched a civil suit but settled out of court for $75,000 and $15,000 in costs. Falconers want to breed birds VANCOUVER (CP) — British Columbia falconers should be allowed to capture at least 10 wild peregrine falcons a year, a public in quiry was told Tuesday George Galicz of the B.C. Wildlife Federation told in quiry commissioner Cyril Shelford that an annual “har- vest” of peregrine chicks would ensure the survival of the rare species. “It is good management to capture and harvest some of the first year (nestlings),” he said. “Not to harvest would be a waste of this resource.” Galicz was one of about a dozen falconers who came to a Vancouver hearing, part of the inquiry into the man- agement of Peale’s peregrine falcons on the Queen Char- lotte isiands. The falconers want to be able to capture the birds and breed them, possibly for ex port But wildlife activisis also turned out in force Tuesday and told Shelford they are opposed tb any falcon “har vest.” “We believe peregrine falcons are best preserved by keeping their wilderness er.vironment pristine and pollution free,” said Paul George of the Western Canada Wilderness Committee. The proposed captive breeding program is just a scheme “to provide birds for profit,” he said. Shelford is, io, submit his report to the provincial gov ernment by April 15. the Peale's
