Stillwell hit a pair of two-run homers and Mark Gubicza allowed five hits in eight innings as the Kansas City Royals routed the Minnesota Twins 8-1 Tuesday night for their fifth straight American League baseball victory. “*Ldon’t know what it is — I guess 1 see the ball well here,’ Stillwell said. “It must be the background herg, because it’s not the pitching. The Twins have as good pitching as any other team."” It was also a big game for the Royals’ Bo Jackson, who homered, doubled and scored three runs. “Nothing the man does surprises me,’ Kansas City manager John Wathan said of Jackson. “‘He’s an amazing athlete."’ Elsewhere in the AL, it was: Toron- to 7, Cleveland 6; Detroit 9, Chicago 7; New York 3, Oakland 2; Seattle 6, Milwaukee 5; and California 7, Boston The game: between the Texas Rangers and Baltimorg Orioles in Arlington, Tex., was postponed because of rain are as atid 5 _ Gubicza, 3-3, struck out three and walked one and lost his shutout bid when Dan Gladden hit a sacrifice fly in — the eighth, Jerry Don Gleaton got the last three outs.

Jackson's solo homer in the sixth gave Kansas City a 5-0 lead and gave Jackson the American. League lead in home runs with 10. The 404-foot shot made him the first right-handed hitter to hit the upper deck in right-field at the Metrodome. “I realize now how much power he has,”’ Oliveras said. ‘‘I give him credit the way he hit that ball. It was down and out. We don’t want to give him anything inside that he can pull. Jackson sparked a three-run second inning with a leadoff double and a delayed steal of home. Bob Boone singled to move Jackson to third, and, with one out, Boone and Jackson pulled off a double steal, with Jackson delaying before breaking for * the plate. Stillwell followed with a two-run homer. Stillwell had three hits and has hit in eight straight game: Tigers9 White Sox7 Keith Moreland’s three-run double keyed a six-run fourth to spoil a five- RBI performance by Chicago's Harold Baines. Baines’s big night included a three- run homer in the eighth to pull the White Sox within two runs. Frank Williams, 2-2, who took over in the fif- th for Mike Trujillo, got the victory. WAYNE GAMBORSKI ceed DENNY McARTHUR In the past few weeks, we have introduced you to the basic putting stoke, drills and a strategy for making more short putts. Now we move on tothe Jong putts, where, invariably, most of our putts will be. Considef this, you are 60 feet from the 41-inch cup, what do you feel your chances are of making the putt? The chances of making this putt are relatively small, and therefore our expectations and goals seem out of reach. Here lies the problem: the goals we set are unrealistic and difficult, if not impossible, to attain. From past experiences, setting goals which we cannot attain result ina feeling of failure, disappointment and lack of in- terest, However, haVing a goal which is much easier to attain breeds success, confidence and erithusiasm. Here lies the “‘secret’’ in becoming a better putter. When we are 60 feet away, would it not be much easier to get the ball into a four-foot target, rather than a4 inch target. It is much easier to have the ball finish in the larger target. In ad- dition, when the ball finishes within the four-foot target, it leaves us with an easy putt of less than two feet. When you practise, place a number of tees around the hole to create the four-foot circle. Practise this until you feel confident, then remove the tees and try the drill again hitting putts so that they finish withitheimaginary four foot circle. On the golf course, the idea is exactly the same, imagine a four foot circle around the hole and putt the ball so that it finishes within our large target. You will find that using this strategy will not only reduce your number of three putts, but on TOE TAPPIN’. . ~ayion the ball finishing within the large target will find the hole, being a bol Good luck and good golfing.

The Montreal Gazette and the Calgary Herald are also gambling on the series. Gazette publisher Clark Davey has agreed to turn over four pages of the newspaper to the Herald if the Flames win the cup. The Herald will do the same if the Canadiens win. The bet was made in April, just before the playoffs started. “We are really going to enjoy the four pages in the Gazette,"’ said herald publisher Kevin Peterson. ‘We haven't been able to sell all the pages yet so we might just have to use them ourselves to thank Montreal for all the great hockey.” Davey would not say what he would do with the four pages if he won. But Peterson said Davey told him all four pages would be in French. Game delay explained by building schedule CALGARY (CP) — Notes and quotes Tuesday from the 1989 Stanley Cup final: The two-day delay between Games | and 2 of this year’s Stanley Cup final is due to the length of the con- ference finals and building availability, said Gary Meagher, the NHE's director of media relations. Teams book specific dates in their buildings for the then other activities, like the basketball games played in the Olympic Saddledome Mon- playoffs, Meagher said, day and Tuesday night, are scheduled. The Campbell Conference seties was scheduled to end Sunday and the Cup final to start Wednesday, he said. Since the Flames amd Canadiens both wrapped up their conference finals by May 11, the decision was made to start the final on Sunday, then play Gafne 2 on the originally booked starting date Calgary Flames’ officials are a little miffed that this year’s Stanley Cup luncheon is being held Saturday in Mon- treal Rick Skaggs, the Flames’ director of public relations, said the luncheon is normally held between Games | and 2 of the final. The affait had to be rescheduled this year because NHL President John Ziegler was attending an ad- visory council meeting this week. History has a way of repeating itself. When the Flames and Canadiens met in the 1986 final, the luncheon was held in Montreal between Games 3 and 4. Montreal coach Pat Burns was asked how practice went Tuesday in light of allegations he discriminates again- st French+Canadian players. “We had fun today,’’ Burns said. ‘ We were ribbing each other. Mats Naslund was saying the Swedes had to go in one corner and the Czechs in another. We just laughed about the whole thing.”” Stephane Richer said the fishbowl atmosphere the Canadiens live in does take its toil. “It’s really tough for the young guys who come onto the team. Every time something happens between the guys or with the coach the press jumps on us right away. They like to do the big stories.”” Calgary Flame defenceman Gary Suter had the wires removed from his broken jaw Tuesday and was looking forward to his first meal of semi-solid food in five weeks. ‘I’m sick of milkshakes, soup and blended garbage,”” said Suter, who missed a month at the end of the season with a ruptured appendix. Suter, who has lost 15 Ibs., said he will be ready to play by Game 5, but could understand if the Flames didn’t juggle their lineup to insert him protect his tongue.

Strong & Associates Thank You! Tourism said growing May 15 to 21 is National Tourism Week — a salute to the fastest growing industry in Canada. The past few years have proven phenomenal, producing revenue of $3.5 billion dollars to the province in 1988, a Castlegar Chamber of Commerce press release: says. Visitors come from all over the world to admire the abundance of recreational resources and facilities, do business, or visit friends and family Castlegar -is increasing its par- ticipation in the; industry. Im provements continue through new businesses, renovations, and ad ditional facilities. Participation in the Superhost program and particular in- dustrial personnel training enhance customer service, The appearance of the community, through the efforts of various governments, interested groups, and private citizens, is becoming more attractive. More and more’ small conventions are being organized and are well orchestrated, the release says. An interesting characteristic of tourism is that everyone in a com- munity can participate. From the front line workers to shop clerks, from municipal officials to . the’ private citizen showing off his community, from social Clubs to sports clubs, from passive to active participation, they act as hosts. Employees of the industry vary in age, talent, and interest, Many train through the programs available to become professionals in this diverse sector of out economy. Tourism isa major employer. various The value of the tourism dollar at first glance may appear to rest only with tourist installations. A closer look indicates the spinoff effect, that is, the circulation of the dollars of the service Station attendants, hotel employees, etc., in dispersing pay in other businesses, paying taxes, or other op- tions, increases the value of the tourism dollar 2.7 times. B.C.’s Ministry of Tourism guidelines in- dicate one visitor spends $30 per day. Therefore, a carload of four is worth $324.00. day, or a one-day convention of 200 could generate $16,200 to a community. The statistics are showing an upward trend in dollars spent. Castlegar has a tremendous oppor- tunity to increase its participation in tourism, the release says. Centrally located, the city has the manpower, the resources and provincial and federal government recognition of the city’s potential. Studies have shown sightseeing to be a major tourist activity in Castlegar — the wildlife, small_attractions, sports heritage and hospitality are ap- preciated by visitors. The possibilities are constrained only by imagination and community support, the release says The Travel Infocentre at the Cham ber of Commerce is part of a B,C.-wide network. The counséllors, accredited by both the Ministry of Tourism and Provincial Secretary and the Ministry of Education, answer all sorts of inquiries about the community. Even local people enjoy the abundance of information and assistance available, whether going on a trip, or acting as community ambassadors The chamber ‘members, City of Castlegar, and province support this service The Castlegar Chamber of Com- merce salutes all who, privately or publicly, voluntarily or otherwise, par ticipate in Castlegar’s tourism in- dustry.
