MONTREAL (CP) — They played
the game with such fire and flair
during the five National Hockey
League seasons between 1955-56 and
1959-69 that the exploits of the Mon
treal Canadiens should have been
preserved for all time.

Molstar Communications has done
just that, with the release Friday of a
five-video package chronicling the
era that produced five straight
Stanley Cup championships.

The videocassettes, which will sell
for $19.95 each and $89.95 as a set,
will be distributed across Canada by
next month, with sales in Quebec,
eastern Ontario and the Maritimes to
start this weekend.

“We've been talking about making
the videos for the last five or six
years,” said Frank Selke Jr., the
director of hockey affairs and busi
ness development for Molstar and an
employee of the Canadiens in the
golden era. “We had this marvellous
film footage in the archives, and
finally we said: ‘Let's do it.’

“Probably 90 per cent of the
hockey fans today have never seen
Henri (Richard), Big Jean (Beliveau)
or the Rocket (Richard) and the
Boomer (Geoffrion) play. This was a
marvellous opportunity for us to get
into the video market.”

Molstar has released one other
hockey video — last year the
company produced a cassette of the
Toronto Maple Leafs’ 1967 Stanley

Cup victory over the Canadiens, and

Selke said “it's had pretty good sales

in and around Toronto,”
GLOWING PAST

Beliveau, the graceful centre on
the championship teams, is the nar.
rator for the French and English
versions of the videos. He attended
the news conference Friday and was
joined by a number of former team.
mates; many of whom spoke glow
ingly of old times.

“It's true that we had a very well
balanced team, the ideal team that
any coach would love to have,” de-
clared Beliveau. “We had two solid
offensive lines and a great defensive
line, with Claude Proyost, Donnie
Marshall and Andre Pronovost, a
great defence, led by Doug Harvey,
and Jacques Plante in the hets.”

The question most frequently
asked of Beliveau and other members
of the dynasty is whether any team
will match or surpass the five
Stanley Cup victories. The Canadiens
captured the trophy four straight
years between 1975-76 and 1978-79,
as did the New York Islanders be-
tween 1979-80 and 1982-83.

“I remember in 1967-68, the year of
the first NHL expansion, some rep
resentatives of the press asked me
what I thought, and my first reaction
was that it was the end of long dyn.
asties,” recalled Beliveau. “The turn-
over of players is much quicker than
it was in the '50s, so it would be very
difficult for any organization to sus.
tain and put on the ice a team that

TORONTO (CP) — Canada should
be an automatic choice as a site for a
men's World Cup , downhill skiing
race but chances aré it won't have a
race in the 1989-90 season, the
managing director of Canada's Al
pine team said Friday.

Canada was left off the first draft
of next season's schedule released
this week by the Federation Inter.
nationale de Ski.

The schedule is to be revised at the
World Championships in Vail, Colo.,
in February and the final schedule
will be released in June.

As usual, there were a few scroo-
ges who got away with two wins

Gauley, Obedkoff and Archambault.

Finishing with one win and one tie
were the rinks of Kelley, Kaardal and
McGillivray.

One game winners were the teams
of Leckie, Mills, Clay, Verzuh and
Waterman.

And ending up with one tie each
were the rinks skipped by Bate,
Buffett and Walker.

In Tuesday's morning draw, Buf.
fett meets McGillivray, rust goes

Hunting
season
extended

The Ministry of Environment has
announced a 20-day extension of
limited entry hunting seasons for
deer and elk in the Koot region.

team.

“We agreed that both parties will meet in five
days,” Galdenzi said after meeting for about 1 hours
with Donald Crump, treasurer of Maple Leafs Gardens

Ltd.

“We agreed also that we'd like to clear this whole
matter up by the end of the month.”

The sales bid follows Ticat owner Harold Ballard’s
dispute with the city of Hamilton over $300,000 the city
claims he owes in back rent on Ivor Wynne Stadium.

Ballard, the irascible owner of the CFL team and
the Toronto Maple Leafs of the National Hockey
League, started pulling Ticat football equipment out of
Ivor Wynne last Sunday afternoon.

The city reacted by changing the locks at the aging
football stadium and Ballard has since stated that he
will sell, fold or move the money-losing team to Toronto.

Galdenzi and Paul Cowell, who represents a group
of Hamilton investors who have not been identified,
held a preliminary meeting with Crump to discuss the

two hours by Crump after Ballard said he would be

unable to attend the meeting.

“Is Harold playing another one of his tricks on us
poor Hamiltonians?” Galdenzi asked. “We've had tricks
in the past from Harold.”

Galdenzi, 36, said he’s convinced the franchise is for

meeting.

sale, although Ballard’s stated selling price of one dollar
is not a realistic figure. Crump said this week the asking
price was $1.5 million.

“That was not discussed —
said Galdenzi, who added that the offer he submits next
week will establish a price tag for the Tiger-Cats.

Crump was not avaiable for comment following the

Although other buyers have offered to purchase

“Mr. Galdenzi wants some time to put (an offer)
together and we have assurances that we have five days
to do it,” said Cowell.

Police arrest suspect
in Spencer slaying

RIVIERA BEACH, FLA. (CP) —
Police have arrested a second
suspect in the June slaying of former
National Hockey League player
Brian Spencer.

Larry Johnson, 30, was arrested
without a struggle Thursday morn-
ing at his mother's home in Riviera
Beach, said Capt. Jerry Poreba.

Police had been looking for
Johnson since Leon Daniels, 25, was
arrested in June, Poreba said. John
son had been living in Oklahoma.

Johnson faces charges of first-

degree murder, armed robbery, at-
tempted armed robbery, possession
of a firearm during a felony and
possession of a firearm by a convic-
ted felon, said Poreba.

He appears before a judge today to
enter a plea and have bond set, said
Poreba.

Daniels is charged with attempted
armed robbery, possession of a fire-
arm during a felony and possession of
a firearm by a convicted felon.

Spencer, 38, was shot while sitting
in a friend's truck in a seedy part of

Riviera Beach, near Miami. His com.
panion told police Spencer was the
victim of a robbery attempt after a
cocaine deal.

The native of Fort. St. James
played for the Toronto Maple Leafs,
the Buffalo Sabres, the New York
Islanders and the Pittsburgh Pen-
guins before dropping to the minor
leagues and finally retiring in 1979.

After retiring, he drifted around.
finding work as a mechanic. In 1987,
he was acquitted of murder in the
1982 killing of a West Palm Beach
restaurant owner.
