(AP) — A new-car dealership has found the answer to slow sales. And it’s not a rebate or special financing. As a grand-opening spec- ial, the dealer offered chanc- es to buy seven genuine clunkers for $1.97. The terms are strictly cash, The only guarantee is that you can drive the hulk off the lot. You're on your own after that. Scores of Cumberland County residents signed up for a chance to buy the cars on the two-day promotion. Malcolm Quay, 18, of Vine- land was one of the first to win. He got a 1973 Ford Maverick “with a crinkle on the left rear.” Quay said he entered the contest because he and his friends “wanted to play Dukes of Hazzard in the woods — you know.” The popular television show fea- tures plenty of high-speed car chases and crashes. Diabetics’ drug aids overweight? A new drug developed for diabetics to help regulate levels of blood glucose and insulin, may also help the overweight, says Dr. P. Ber- ehtold, head of clinical re- search in West Germany for Bayer, the large pharmaceu- tical company. Berchtold discussed the new drug, acarbose, present- ly under investigation by Bayer, at a symposium in Toronto marking the 60th anniversary of the discovery of insulin by Drs. Charles Best and Frederick Banting at the University of Toronto. Insulin, a hormone in which many diabetics are de- ficient, is essential for uptake of glucose from the blood. Acarbose slows the rise in blood levels of glucose after carbohydrates are eaten and thus lowers the insulin dose required by diabetics. In the course of studying the effects of the drug on both diabetics and non-dia- betics, researchers found that while acarbose does not help in achieving weight loss, it is much easier to keep weight off if one is taking small amounts of acarbose. When acarbose slows the rise of blood glucose after a meal, Berchtold said, it also slows the releae of insulin. There is still enough in- sulin available for uptake of glucose for immediate energy needs and for storage of glucose as readily retrievable glycogen but with the lower insulin level, glucose is less likely to be stored as hard-to- retrieve body fat.

This week marked the 12th consecutive week that resi- dents have illegally dumped garbage outside the gates because the site was closed — and Central Kootenay Re- gional District officials are getting fed up. “This is just ridiculous,” said regional district Area I @irector John Voykin Tues- day morning after surveying the mess outside the gates. The illegal: dumping started Sept. 1 when the re- gional district introduced operating hours at the dump. Until then the site had been open 24 hours a day. The regional district was forced to start regularly closing the dump after the aero pollution control d charged the district with violating its pollution control: permit. ‘The charge eventually landed the regional district in Nelson provincial court where it was fined $3,500. ‘Regional ’ district officials said they anticipated some problems when the new hours. were. first introduced “Bécause some residents would be caught by surprise.

However, Voykin said NDP trounce Tories By CONWAY DALY WINNIPEG (CP) — The New democratic Party swept to victory Tuesday in the Manitoba general election, ousting the four-year-old Progressive Conservative administration of Premier Sterling Lyon. The NDP, under the lead- ership of Howard Pawley, picked up every seat that changed hands in a hard- fought election which turned into a straight two-party battle as all other hopefuls fell by' the wayside. With results reported from 98.4 per cent of the polls, the NDP had 47 per cent of the popular vote, compared with 38 per cent in 1977, while the RCMP. isn't Bins. to lay.

Willie Popoff, a nearby resident, said garbage isn’t just being dumped outside the gates, but further up the road out of sight of residents. Progressive Conservative had 44 per cent, down from 49 per cent four years ago. Pawley, a tall, soft-spoken lawyer and former attorney- general who celebrates his 47th birthday Saturday, vowed the NDP would pro- vide Manitobans with a gov- ernment of which they can be proud. “What a marvellous even- ing for all of us and for the, people of Manitoba,” Pawley told cheering supporters at the Union Centre in Winni- peg. “Our hard work, our faith in the people of Manitoba, has been rewarded.” Pawley and Lyon were both re-elected within 45. iP have Qne offender traced by .- ~ROMP. fromthe: gar) By CasNews Staff = Picket lines came down Monday morning at the Castlegar Sandman Inn con- struction site after Northland Properties Ltd. — the firm building the new $6 million hotel —‘secured a cease and desist order from the pro- vincial Labor Relations d.
