British Columbia produces about 70 per cent of Canada's lumber and would be hard hit by trade penalties. Opposition Leader Bob Skelly said in the legislature that International Trade Minister Pat McGeer made “wild and intemperate statements” last weekend in attacking so-called trade terrorism by the Americans and calling for retaliatory measures.

Old Flames remember ATLANTA (AP) For a few of Atlanta's old Flames. watching Calgary Flames play Montreal Canadiens in the National Hockey League Stanley Cup final rekindles some warm memories. “Hey, Calgary isn't as high scoring as some of the teams in the NHL,” said Bernie (Boom Boom) Geoffrion, who moved to Atlanta as the Flames coach in 1972 and stayed when the Flames moved to Calgary in 1980 “But they're so well-coached “That's the reason they've made it so far.” Curt Bennett, a six-year member of the team that dared play on ice in the Deep South, said. “I hope they win it all “I can remember good teams in this where it all started Randy Mannery, a defence man who now owns a dry cleaning business and an ice cream parlor, said, “I really miss those early years. “The crowd was always excited. We had a lot of fun The team now is different They're much younger than we were.” some town. Canadiens take 2-1 lead in NHL series By NEIL STEVENS MONTREAL (CP) — Montreal Canadiens produced vital late-period goals then wrapped their iron defence around Calgary Flames to take an upper hand in the Stanley Cup final Tuesday night. 5-3 victory, with the Mats Naslund-Bobby Smith-Kjell Dahlin line supplying four goals, gave the Canadiens a 2-1 edge in the best-of-seven National Hockey League championship series. Game 4 is in Montreal on Thursday night. The Canadiens rallied from 1-0 and 2-1 deficits to seize a lead they never relinquished by scoring three times in 68 seconds in the last two minutes of the first period. Smith, Naslund — with his second of the period — and Bob Gainey scored in the outburst after Joe Mullen and Joel Otto had scored for Calgary. Lanny MeDonald scored for Calgary in the second period but again the Flames relaxed in the late going and Dahlin restored a two-goal Montreal lead with 38 seconds left in the period. “It was a funny game, the way it started off,” said veteran Larry “We took a rash of penalties right off the bat and only had a couple of shots on net before the 10-minute mark. “Tt put us in a position where a lot of the guys didn't get on the ice much, messed up our lines.” Referee Don Koharski penalized Montreal twice in the opening five minutes and the Flames broke on top when Mullen slipped the puck into an open side of goaltender Patrick Roy’s net on a power play at 5:45. Calgary had a 9-2 shots edge by the time Naslund tied it 1-1 at 6:50, firing a rebound past goaltender Mike Vernon. AMERICAN LEAGUE The Flames then were outshot 10-0 through 12 minutes and 14 seconds until Otto deflected a long shot by Al MacInnis on a power play 17:59. seconds after that one. “The timing of their goals really hurt,” said Calgary captain Doug Risebrough. “You want to carry a lead for more than one or two shifts.” Lemelin was sent in to replace Vernon and the Flames settled down, getting a goal back to make it 4-3 at 7:13 of the second period. McDonald whacked a rebound out of midair for Calgary's third power-play goal in five manpower advantages. Dahlin restored the two-goal advantage. Lemelin came out of his crease to stop a Gaston Gingras shot, the puck trickled between his leg pads and Dahlin, who had stolen behind the goalie, had an open net into which to deposit the puck. “Kjell’s goal was a big one,” said Naslund. “We got up by two goals again and in the third period it was just killing time so they wouldn't score too many goals, protecting our lead which we are pretty good at.” Said Gainey of Dahlin's insurance goal: “It gives you that cushion that you know you can afford to make a mistake. It was an important goal for that reason alone.” A crowd of 18,017 saw Montreal finish with an overall 29-26 edge in shots on goal. Boggs helps Red Sox By The Associated Press Wade Boggs helped Boston Red Sox romp to a big lead and then helped them turn the game into a rout. Boggs had the first five-hit gamie of his career Tuesday night while Boston scored six runs in the first inning and pounded out 20 hits to beat Minnesota Twins 17-7. Boggs, a two-time AL bat- ting champion, went 5-for6 and raised his average to 386, tops in the major leagues. He had a bunt single during the first inning and had four singles and a double in his first five at-bats. In his sixth plate appear. ance, he hit a hard grounder that went through the legs of first baseman Mickey Hat cher for an error. Cleveland Indians got off to an even faster start — they scored eight times in the top of the first inning — but Milwaukee Brewers rallied to. win 12-9. Milwaukee's Ernest Riles broke an 88 tie in the sev. enth inning with an RBI single. Then teammate Paul Householder hit a three-run homer later in the inning. Milwaukee finished with 11 hits.
