Ontario's rate of 13.4 per cent is the lowest The report also shows that about 600,000 poor children are in two-parent families. Another 400,000 have only a mother to support the family, advertising materials and not those already printed.

At the Forum, the tossing of rubbers is usually a gesture of disgruntlement by the faithful followers of the Canadiens. And a yellow ribbon sometimes is indicative of a release from a personal purgatory. The Bruins’ 4-1 victory ended 44 years of bondage — the length of time it has taken Boston to eliminate Montreal in a Stanley Cup playoff series. After 18 consecutive setbacks, they stunned the regular-season champions in the Adams Division, ousting them from a best-of-seven series in five games — faster By TERRY SCOTT ens MONTREAL — Long after the Boston Bruins had disposed of the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday night, = = | A than any opponent since 1963. “Starting from this moment, everyone will have a tremendous feeling of satisfaction,” said Rejean Lemelin, the Boston netminder who made 28 stops in a con tinuation of his brilliance in the series. “What's satisfying is that the Stanley Cup is within reach. “We have to remember there are two rounds to go, but this was such a big obstacle.” SCORES TWO It was fitting that Lemelin, a native of Sherbrooke, Que., would have a major role in releasing the albatross from the Bruins’ necks. Just as it was appropriate that a centre named Steve Kasper, who was born and raised a few kilometres from the Forum, would score two goals — and did Cam Neely — in a triumphant homecoming. “I spent a lot of time losing in this building,” admitted Kasper, who: scrounged 18 tickets to the game for family members and friends who were among the 18,094 spectators, the largest crowd of the season at the Forum. “It's no fun when you leave the building and your friends are waiting for you, and you have to make excuses for what happened.” When Kasper finished off a 2-on-1 break with Randy Burridge for the first goal and then made it 3-0 midway through the second with Montreal defenceman Peter Svoboda draped all over him, it was clear no apologies would be required. A goal by Montreal's John Kordic just over four minutes later brought a frenzied attack by the Canadiens. But Lemelin, a free agent who joined the Bruins at the start of the season, never lost his composure. He made a splendid save on a deflection by Shayne Corson at the lip of the crease, only moments before Neely’s second goal provided the Bruins with extra breathing space. “It’s so tough to come from behind,” said centre Bobby Smith in the numbing silence of the Canadiens’ dressing room. “We talked about the importance of the first goal before the game and we just didn't get it.” The Bruins now advance to the Wales Conference final against the winner of the Patrick Division between New Jersey and Washington. The Devils defeated the Capitals 3-1 Tuesday night to take a 3-2 game lead in the series The Campbell Conference final will pit the defending Stanley Cup champion Edmonton Oilers against the winner of the Norris Division between the Detroit Red Wings and St. Louis Blues.

CosNewsPhote Expos drop decision to Reds in cold night game MONTREAL (CP) — What began as another poor start for Expos pitcher Floyd Youmans on Tuesday night ended up as his best outing of the year. But it still wasn't enough to prevent Montreal from losing 5-2 to the Cincinnati Reds in National League baseball play. “It was so damn cold out there, I had trouble getting loose at the beginning,” said Youmans, who was chilled by the 10 degree C weather but survived the first inning unscathed, despite throwing 28 pitches and walking the bases loaded. Youmans, 0-2, wasn’t as lucky the rest of the way. By the time he was finished after the seventh inning, he had been tagged for nine hits and four runs including two homers. “He threw better than he has all year, but he was overthrowing a little,” Expos manager Buck Rodgers said - “He kept trying to get ahead with his fast balls, but they were jumping on him.” MONTREAL SCORES Montreal scored in the first inning when Hubie Brooks drew a two-out walk and went to second on Tim Wallach's infield hit. Brooks scored when Reds shortstop Barry Larkin threw away a routine grounder by Andres Galarraga. Cincinnati tied it in the second when Paul O'Neill doubled and scored on Jeff Treadway's two-base hit. Nick Esasky hit his fourth homer in his last six games to put the Reds ahead in the fourth and then Cincinnati added another run in the fifth when Davis singled home pitcher Ron Robin son, 1-2, who had led off the inning with a base hit. Robinson, who won his first game of the year, was lifted with one out in the sixth after giving up back-to-back singles to Brogks and Wallach. “He pitched too good a game to leave him in' there and have him lose the win,” said Reds manager Pete Rose. Eric Davis hit his second homer of the season to make it 4-1 in the seventh and then O’Neilidrove in Esasky with a sacrifice fly for the final Reds run in the eighth. Galarraga hit his fifth homer of the season, off Frank Williams, for Mon. treal's second run in the eighth, before John Franco worked the ninth for Cincinnati to get his third save. The Expos began a stretch of 33 consecutive games against West Divi sion teams Tuesday night Pitcher Neal: Heaton, who had been sidelined for two weeks with a sprained ankle, threw 97 pitches in a simulated game Tuesday. sprained ankle, threw 97 pitches in a simulated game Tuesday deWitt's retirement cancels title match TORONTO (CP) — Willie deWit's decision to retire from boxing has cost the Canadian heavyweight champion a lucrative shot at the world title, says Mike Tyson's assistant manager. “Had he gotten into the top 10 in six or seven months, we would have been through everyone else,” Steve Lott said from New York. “He would have been next.” DeWit, a native of Grande Prairie, Alta., who fought out of Burnet, Tex., is ranked No. 11 in the world by the International Boxing Federation. The Olympic silver medallist, 20-1-1 as a professional, announced his retirement Monday in Los Angeles, saying the sport no longer held his interest Rod Proudfoot, deWit's business manager, had made no secret of the fi he was trying to move the Canadian title-holder into position for a bout with Tyson. The goal was to have the two meet in Canada, possibly in Edmonton's Commonwealth Stadium. “It would have been a monster fight, a monster fight,” said Lott. “They would have closed up Canada for that day.” Such a fight provided deWit payday, Lott said. would also have with a generous BIG MONEY “They make more in a fight against Mike than they do in their whole career,” Lott said of Tyson's opponents. “It would have been the same for Willie.” Veteran matchmaker Sher, however, was relieved deWit's retirement had ended any thoughts of a title shot against Tyson. “Oh my; oh, my God,” he said from Kansas City,.Mo. “I'd hate to see that fight. Willie wouldn't last a round with Mike Tyson.” Peyton DeWit's retirement also ended any, chance of a summer bout with Trevor Berbick, former Canadian and World Boxing Council champion. Berbick, the IBF’s No. 1 con tender, said he had been looking forward to fighting deWit. “It'd be a natural fight, because got my title,” said Berbick, who stripped of his Canadian crown in January 1986 because of inactivity. mos. B.C. general manager Joe Galat said Tuesday he has not talked directly with Dunigan, but has made trade overtures to Eskimo general manager Hugh Campbell. “I wouldn't want to be accused of " Galat told a news con- ut I won't deny we've had conversations.” Asked what the Eskimos would want in return, Galat said coyly: “Our defence.” Dunigan was Edmonton's starting quarterback in the 1987 Grey Cup game in Vancouver against the Toronto Argonauts, but was knocked out of the game_by_a hard tackle. Backup pivot Damon Allen directed the title victory was released by the Montreal Expos following spring training. The Eskimos have a third quarter back in Tracy Ham, a seldom-seen rookie last year. “We've talked in terms of quarter backs with Edmonton, but there's been nothing specific,” said Galat Allen and Dunigan are’ both in their option years and “my guess is that he (Campbell) is trying to sign one of them before making a deal.” DEWALT BOLTS The Lions are in the market for a proven pivot after Roy Dewalt won a legal decision against the financially strapped team for payment of deferred salary. Dewalt is one of 11 veterans who has not agreed to renegotiated terms with B.C. management. are interested in help for the defensive line because all-star end Stewart Hill has become a free agent. tackle John Mandarich has signed with the New Orleans Saints of the National Football League and end Tom Tuinei has had personal problems off the field * “We have a good, solid defensive team and we'll maintain that,” Galat added. “We're not hinging all our plans on a trade. If it happens, great.” The Lions also announced the signing of several players, including highly rated wide receiver Dave Williams, 23, from the University of Illinois. The six-foot-four, 195-pounder was the Chicago Bears’ third-round NFL pick in 1986 and played with the Los Angeles Raiders last season Devils surge ahead LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — Coach Jim Schoenfeld has kept goaltender Bob Sauve guessing. “It was disappointing,” Washington coach Bryan Murray said. “Our power-play was slow, almost casual in some And, as far as the New Jersey Devils are concerned, that's a perfect arrangement. The veteran goaltender recorded his second playoff vietory in as many starts Tuesday night by stopping 28 of 29 shots in the Devils’ 3-1 victory over the Washington Capitals in Game 5 of the Patrick Division final. The victory gave New Jersey a 3-2 lead in the®best-of. seven series. The sixth game is scheduled Thursday night in East Rutherford, N.J. Going back to the regular season, Sauve has started just three of the Devils’ last 25 games. “Right now, you never know. Jim likes to throw you in there. He’s the kind of guy who likes to do something just because it’s different,” Sauve said after Tuesday night's victory. “Not because it worked before, but just to change things up . . . when it works like this I don't mind at all.” Schoenfeld said he could not explain what prompted him to go with Sauve over rookie Sean Burke, who has started the Devils’ other nine playoff games. “I don't know. You just get a feeling,” Schoenfeld said. “It was down to a best two-of-three series. If Sean tired in the sixth or seventh game, that would be a lot of pressure on Bob then.” Sauve made several tough saves in the first period as the Devils killed off four Washington power plays. “It takes a little while to get into the game, not to get to get into the game, but to calm down,” Sauve said. “That's the toughest part.” The Capitals found the toughest part Tuesday night was scoring at all. Savue stopped their first 20 shots and had a shutout going until Mike Ridley scored with 9:36 remaining in the game. Orioles one instances, all finesse plays instead of shooting the puck.” Washington goalie Clint Malarchuk, starting in place of Pete Peeters, lost his sixth career playoff game without a vietory. One player who did snap a drought was New Jersey centre Kirk Muller, who, after setting a franchise record with 94 points this season, scored his first two goals of the playoffs. “Kirk is the kind of player who doesn't score for a long time and then scores in bunches,” Muller's linemate Pat Verbeek said. “(Tuesday night) was one of those nights where he gets his two goals.” After taking several untimely penalties in Game 4, the Devils altered their focus for this game. “We were very hungry,” Verbeek said. “We knew-we had to have this game. We wanted to come out flying. We were skating rather than getting into those skirmishes.” New Jersey took a 1-0 lead at 16:36 of the first period after Muller intercepted a pass by Washington defenceman Kevin Hatcher in the Capitals’ zone. Muller skated in alone, deked Malarchuk down, and stuffed a backhand shot past the outstretched leg of the Washington goaltender. New Jersey opened a 2-0 lead with a power-play goal by defenceman Tom Kurvers 6:54 into the second period. Kurvers fired a slapshot through a maze of players past Malarchuk. Three minutes after Ridley scored Washington's only goal, Muller scored his second goal of the game off a perfect centering feed from Verbeek. Muller put home a backhand shot from alone in front of Malarchuk, putting New Jersey ahead 3-1 and within one game of the final of the Wales Conference. game away from worst AL record The Canadian Press The hope that sprang after an early 2-0 lead turned out to be almost as premature as the champagne chilling in the locker room. Neither could be savored Tuesday night as the Baltimore Orioles stumbled to 0-19 and staggered to within one game of the longest losing streak in American League baseball history, falling to the Minnesota Twins 4-2 on two home runs by Kent Hrbek and another by Randy Bush. “It's like we're not doing enough to win a ballgame,” Baltimore manager Frank Robinson said. “It looks like it will take a shutout.” Baltimore can tie the AL mark of 20 consecutive losses, last done by the Philadelphia Athletics in 1943, with another loss tonight in Minnesota. The all-time major-league record is 23 consecutive losses by the Philadelphia Phi The Orioles’ slide is the longest losing streak in the majors since Detroit's 19-game streak in 1975. In other AL games Tuesday night, it was: Oakland ies in 1961.
