limony.

MONTREAL (CP) — All-

mony payments have become
as inevitable as death and
taxes in Quebec thanks to a
new collection service set up
by the. provincial govern-
ment.
The Quebec Alimony Col-
lection ‘Service, established
two months ago, has ‘the
power to seize a man's salary
or movable effects. It has
opened 57 offices in the prov-
ince to help women track
down and get that elusive
alimony.

In .helping ex-wives who
might otherwise be forced to
apply for welfare payments,
the government is also help-
ing itself by reducing the -
amount of money it hands
out:

Quebec is spending $1.2
million on the services this
year, but hopes to save $2
million in welfare payments.

Before the service was in-

troduced, a woman whoée *’

husband was in arrears with: -
his alimony had only one-
recourse — to sue him in
small claims court, a long and
cumbersome process requir-
ing legal fees.

And since the courts can
order payments for one year
only, the whole process had
to be repeated every year if
the husband continued to be
negligent.

Now, ‘a woman entitled to
monthly alimony of $160, but
who is receiving $400 a

dodgers

month welfare, still receives
the same amount after the
service solves her case. How-
ever, the $160 comes from
her husbnad, not the gov-
ernment.

An estimated 7,500 women
in Quebec don't receive the
alimony they are entitled to.

Since the new law went
into effect, only a dozen
women have come off the
welfare rolls, But Jacques
Renaud, an analyst with the
social affairs department,
says it is too early to judge
whether the new system is a
success, bee

“We hope to get $2 million
in alimony payments the first
year and to save $2 million

_ from the social aid budget,”

he said. “We hope to get net
benefits of about $4 million
the first year.” The annual
social aid budget is $1.2
billion.
“The principal benefit of
ice is that it will
; bring fewer customers for us
in future,” Renaud, said.

Lise Collin, director of the
Alimony Collection Service,
says the legislation helps be-
cause 'men know there is a
law designed to protect their
ex-wives.

She said the biggest prob-
lem faced by the collection
service is to force the men to
pay, particularly if they are
mobile, living with someone
else or have new respon-
sibilities.

Anxiety mounts as
exam time nears.

WINNIPEG (CP) — It's
nail-biting time on canadian
university campuses.

As exam time approaches,
many students find them-

selves worrying if they can.

make the final grade. _
But, unless a student hs

ambitions to enter a pro-

fession such as medicine or

law, the annual spring pres-’

sure of writing exams is not
as great as it used to be.
Lyle Eide, head student
counsellor at the University
of Manitoba, says university
final examinations are not
tho ultimate tests they once
_ were, Few, if any, are worth
@ student's total grade, he
said, and many are valued at.
Jess than half,
However, for those trying
to get into professional

schools, the situation is dif--

ferent.

“Fifteen years ago, you
could get Cs and Bs and that
would be acceptable,” said
Eide. “But it isn't anymore.”

He said his counsellors seo
from 20 to 30 people a ‘week
at exam time and those they
talk to “are in crisis.”

_ “The A student can exper-
ience as much or more stress
as the one struggling to
maintain passing marks,” he
said, “The stress in April is
when they've overdone it.
They're cramming and then
something goes haywire.
Anything out of the ordinary
can be the last straw.”

The symptoms of anxiety
may range from non-stop
crying, to an inability to get
out of bed, or complete with-
drawal and sleeplessness.

“In every final, there will
some people who are really
on edge,” said Hide. “And an
attentive examiner can often
spot them. Some ‘will . sit
there for half an hour and not
write a word... or for tw:
hours.” *

He said students in ‘pro-
fessional faculties such’ as
architecture, music and ‘en-
virqnmental studies, suffer a
particular kind of stress be-

play.
But there. is hope. The
University of Winnipeg con-
ducts group sessions to help
ward off individual crises at
exam time. gt

Counsellor Barrie Noonan
of the University of Winn-
ipeg said the purpose of
group exam counselling is to
help the student understand
they are not alone and to
curb the anxiety associated
with writing exams.

Eide said correcting be-
havioral problems is a matter

of improving study habits.

“It's a practice effect,” said
Eide. “People who've never
had exams before have a
hard time going into their
first exam... You put it into
a realistic perspective, into
goals they can achieve.”

Caseload higher :

for lower court ~

VANCOUVER (CP) — Al- :
though he heads a lower court
whose members are merely
“your honor,’? Judge Law-
rence Goutet doesn’t consider
his judicial domain inferior to
the loftier halls in which their
“lordships"’ preside.

Indeed, as chief judge of
the provincial court, Goulet
directs a province-wide sys-
tem in which the criminal
case load is far heavier than
that borne by judges of sup-
erior or trial courts.

The 116 judges in the 13

are employed by the federal
government. They are ap-
pointed by the federal cabinet
on’ recommendation of. the
justice minister.

Provincial court judges are
employed by the provincial
government. They are ap-
polnted by the provincial cab-
inet on the recommendation
of the Judicial Council, «
body whose membership in-
cludes lay representation.

The provincial government
plays a key role in adminis-
tering and financing the pro-
vinciat court system, but Gou-.
let discounted recent reports
that the government is tryin;
to interfere with judicial in-
dependence.

Goulet said the indepen-
dence of his court was rein-
forced by Mr. Justice Peter
Seaton, the B.C. Court of’
Appeal judge who investi-
gated a 1979 allegation that
Victoria interfered with the
court.

“Judges are not part of a
government team,'’ Justice
Seaton wrote in his report.

“Their function is separate
and distinct. Not infrequent-
ly, they decide between gov-
ernment and individuals and
they must not.be associated.
with either.” ‘

provincial court system dealt
with more than 200,000 cases
fast year, including 150,000
criminal matters, 25,000 fam-
ily court hearings and 25,000
small claims disputes.”

The B.C. Supreme Court
and Vancouver county court
heard about 3,000 cases, but
handled thousands of non-
trial matters as well.

Goulet, 56, explained that
judges at ali tevels fo the sys-
tem need similar dual qual-
ities —'a knowledge of the
taw and an ability to apply it
in a humane manner. ‘

But he suggested that pro-
vincial court judges, because
of their close daily contact
with the disadvantaged, often

Excess protein

‘An excess of protein makes‘

the same principles may op-
erate in people, says a Uni-
versity of Virginia research
team. Mature lab rats are
considered to provide a good
model for human. weight

in.

Dr, Pat Donald and her
co-workers at the University
of Virginia fed groups of rats
specially prepared diets con-
taining varying amounts of
protein but ‘the same total
numiber of calories.

Rats fed a. bigh proportion
of protein gained weight

more: rapidly than .did rats
fed the samo number of cal-
ories but less protein,

In a related experiment,
which involved feeding either
five per cent or 25 per cent
protein to rats, again with no
difference in the total num-,
ber of calories, the rats given
the higher level of protein
had significantly more body
fat by the end of the
eight-week test period.

One possible explanation
advanced by the researchers:
is that high protein, dicts are
associated with a lower level
of activity. ... ee
