Castlegar News October 2, 1985 Program gives job skills | Selkirk College is looking—the successful youth training for young people interested in acquiring work experience in jobs that interest them. The Job Entry program, a federally funded, college- sponsored .\program’ offers young people and small busi- nesses the opportunity to unite in a venture that has proved to be mutually bene ficial.

UNITED WAY DAY AT PHARMASAVE Saturday, Oct. 5 October 2, 1985 8 DETROIT (AP) — The heat is on Toronto Blue Jays, and Detroit manager Sparky Anderson thinks that's Anderson wants the Jays and New York Yankees to settle the American League East championship between themselves in their three-game series ending the season in Toronto this weekend. 5 If the Tigers cari dominate the Jays tonight and Thursday the way they did in their 6-1 victory over Toronto on Tuesday night, Anderson may get his wish. The magic number remains at three for the Jays, who have been in first place since May 13 and who still lead the Yankees by four games despite New York's 6-1 victory over Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday. That still means Toronto could clinch as early as Thursday. If, however, the Tigers sweep the Jays and the Yankees sweep the Brewers, it would set up a weekend showdown in Toronto. “We don't want them to clinch it here,” Anderson said. “If I could have it my way, we'd sweep them here and New York will beat Milwaukee and they'll settle it. “Those two clubs have battled all season. I'd like to _ Jays could clinc see it where sey ‘ve got to beat New York. two out of three. “If we can win one more, I think they're going to have to go settle it among themselves. I-don't think New York is going to lose two to Milwaukee.” .) Anderson said the. Tigers will try their best, even though the top reward would be a shot at finishing third. WILL START MORRIS The ‘Tigers plan to’send right-hander Jack: Morris, 15-11, against the Jays tonight. Toronto manager Bobby Cox has decided against starting southpaw Jimmy Key, 14-6, who has a pulled groin muscle. Instead, he will go with right -hander Dave Stieb, 14-12, tonight and use right-hander Jim Clancy, 9-5, against Detroit’s Walt Terrell, 14-10, on Thursday. Key will start Friday night against the Yankees, Cox said. “We're watching the scoreboard every inning,” Cox said. “We know it makes our job easier if the Yankees lose, but we'd like to win it ourselves, We'd rather wrap this up, but we've got the lead.” The Yankees were also watching the scoreboard, and that upset manager Billy Martin. Twice the scoreboard flashed the final score of the Jays’ game. And while the 15,101 at Yankee Stadium fans roared, Martin twisted in anger. “I don't like it,” he said. “There's enough pressure on my players already. They don't need any more. What good does it do if they lose’ and we don't win? “We have to worry about our game. Who's it for, anyway? The fans? I'm worried more about my players getting tight out there than the fans.” - But, despite the distraction, the Yankees easily won their sixth straight game. That pulled them within four games of the Jays. “I guess people will start talking about the Yankees again,” said Martin. “All of a sudden, up’ jump the Yankees. We're back. For a while we were a silent team. Not anymore.” Meanwhile, Cox was asked how his young club would be affected if it lost all three games to Detroit. “I don’t think about that!” Cox snapped. Toronto outfielder Jesse Barfield, whose throwing error helped Detroit score three runs in the seventh h title Thursday inning, said the Jays can stand the heat. “We'll shake it off. We'll make some adieist mente and- *“ come back tomorrow.” Barfield, who had a double, giving him 70 extra-base ® hits this season, one more than the club record set by George. Bell last. year, had this to say about his opponents: “Those guys, even though they're out of it, they're good calibre ball players and those guys have a lot of personal goals, so they have something to shoot for.” _ Two veteran ballplayers, first baseman Darrell Evans and left-handed pitcher Frank Tanana, 11-14, were the Tigers heroes. Evans, bidding to become the first player to hit 40 “home runs in both leagues, hit two off Doyle Alexander, 16-10, and Tanana scattered nine: hits in his third complete game. Evans now has 39 homers for the season and leads Chicago's Carlton Fisk by two in the race for the AL home-run title. “We owe it to New York and to ourselves to try our best against Toronto,” Evans. said. —— Winning_ numbers drawn The 43 projects involved 900 trainees province-wide with a budget of $6 million.

Accused drug supplier pleads guilty to charges PITTSBURGH (AP) — Shelby Greer, accused of ac- companying Pittsburgh Pir- ates on road trips in order to supply some baseball players with cocaine, pleaded guilty Tuesday ‘to” seven federal drug distribution . charges and was given a 12-year rison term. Greer, 29, of Philadelphia admitted selling cocaine to at least four former Pirates from 1981 to 1984 and was players but to other National Leaguers he met through Parker and other players.

Greer is the sixth to have his case resolved. Four have pleaded guilty, and two others — including former Philadelphia Phillies club- house caterer Curtis Strong — were found guilty.
