The race will be held in mid-March following the Winter @lympics in Calgary and a World Cup race at Vail, Colo. The executive of the Canadian Ski Association chose Red Mountain over bids from the Whistler-Blackcomb ski area and Sunshine Village in Banff. The location will be officially approved by the calendar committee of the World Cup governing body at meetings in Europe June 1-13. Meantime, Ross said organizers have already started May 27,1987 8) The race is expected to cost just short of $300,000, with Husky Oil, the major corporate sponsor, contributing $115,000. Ross said organizers had hoped to rasie $125,000 locally but expect to raise about $100,000. Ross said organizers must still sit down with Husky Oil to determine suitable sub-sponsors following final approval of the site. The Regional District of Kootenay Boundary has already offered $40,000, and Castlegar counci] has contributed a total of $4,000. The sponsoring committee had sought $10,000 from the three major, cities in the area — Trail, Rossland arid Castlegar. Ross said the Regional District of Central Kootenay has also expressed interest in the race and has asked to hear a request for funding. Organizers have also contacted hotels in the area asking them to commit to a “per bed assessment.” Tom Johnson, another past-president of the Red Mountain Racers, told a recent Castlegar council meeting the Trail-Castlegar area has 900 available hotel and motel beds. “I'm not sure that is going to be enough,” he said, adding that organizers may have to book rooms as far away as Nelson and Grand Forks. Red Mountain Ski Area manager Bob Steckle says the race is expected to draw 60 skiers and 120 support staff, along with a minimum of 300 media people. Pp headed for ae world will be in North America. “These things do bring a great deal of focus .. . area,” Steckle said. He said the immediate financial return for the community will be about $750,000 to $1 million. But there will also be a significant long-term “payback” for the region from the international media exposure, Steckle said. And he noted that hosting one race gives a ski area an advantage in bidding for future World Cup races. He pointed to Sunghine Village which hosted the women’s World Cup races two of the last three years, and Whistler, which has hosted a men’s World Cup downhill for several years. “Successfully staging one of these things does give you to the Steckle says the large number of media are because the race follows closely on the heels of the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, so media from around the di amount of ” Steckle said, adding that once the race is held here, it could return every three to five years. FIGHT AIDS PORT-AU-PRINCE (AP) — The AIDS virus is spreading so rapidly in Haiti among both heterosexuals and_ homosexuals that the government has turned to television to teach people how to avoid the killer disease. On one recent television program, three medical students noted that AIDS can result from any form of sexual activity. A female student described how condoms work and urged people to use them. today Pierre seathing attack on the Meech Lake constitutional accord is the 1984 a throwback to the old style federal-provincial wars that Canadians rejected in of 1984. “What this has done is style of federalism” made the choices clear,” Mulroney told reporters after the former prime min- ister i part and parcel of Mulroney noted the Trudeau's also part of the style Mul- same time — roney said voters rejected in minister of Canada, all the election, “When things didn't work parties, all the premiers, dif- out your way, the style was ferent political leaders living personal attack.

A 30-second spot that i is repeated frequently cautions that sexual promi: the risk of to the virus. A voice-over accompanying cartoon figures of men and women says in Haiti's Creole language, “Girls, make love to only one boy and avoid catching AIDS!" “There are people here used to having dozens of sexual partners,” said Dr. Bernard Lautaud, a specialist in sexually transmitted diseases.’ “Some change partners every two or three days. That's a detestable habit that will almost certainly lead to contracting AIDS,” Lautaud said in an ‘interview. Acquired immune deficiency syndrome is caused by a virus that attacks the body's immune system, leaving victims to a variety of ii ions and cancers. Only a fraction of the people infected with the virus have developed the disease. From 1,000 to 2,000 Haitians have been diagnosed as having AIDS. Doctors estimate 100,000 to 200,000 Haitians carry the virus without knowing it, and as many as one million of the six million people who live in this impoverished Caribbean country could become infected within the next five years. BLAMES AMERICANS Dr. Robert Jean-Louis, president of the Haitian Medical Association, says AIDS was introduced to Haiti in the 1970s by homosexual tourists from the United States. Most AIDS victims worldwide have been homosexual men and intravenous drug abusers. “They even had an international gay congress here in 1980," Jean-Louis said. “They made Haiti a world crossroads for homosexuals. That's how the virus penetrated the population.” Haitians are still angry that the U.S. Centre for Disease Control initially put the entire Haitian nation in the AIDS high-risk category — along with homosexuals and drug abusers. That classification was removed in April 1985, but not before the country’s image was tarnished and its citizens living abroad were subjected to discrimination. “No nationality is more suceptible than another to AIDS,” researcher Dr. Rodolphe Malbranche said. “We do have a high ratio of AIDS cases in Haiti, probably more than, say, Alaska, but not more than American cities such as Los Angeles and New York.” The reported incidence of the disease in New York is about three times the rate in Haiti.

Stars may be forced to fold By CasNews Staff The Castlegar Stars of the Kootenay Soecer League may be forced to fold if the team doesn't begin to get a better’ turnout from its players, according to head coach Carlos Amaral. In an interview with the Castlegar News Tuesday, Amaral blamed the club's losing streak on several team members who failed to show up to games and practices. His comments came after a couple_of weekend losses, 5-0 to Cranbrook and 4-1 to Kimberley. “When you go to play a strong team like Cranbrook, you don't take weak _players. We were missing four or five of our best players,” said Amaral. “If we win, then everyone's happy. But if we lose, I get the blame and the guys don't show up.” Amaral added that he called a team meeting to iron out the problem, “but no one showed ap.” “I don't know what.to do. I don't know if we're going to fold. These are grown men and I can't force them to come to the field.” He said that no one wants to win as much as he does, but the players “have to come to the field and they have to play soccer.” “Hopefully the Stanley Cup playoffs will be over tonight (Tuesday). All the guys are watching Gretzky and not showing up for the games,” Amaral said. The Stars travel to Trail for a game tonight against the Spurs and then have two weekend games against Creston. On Saturday the Stars play host to Creston and.on Sunday the two teams take to the field in Creston. The weekend series is part of the Kootenay Cup action and Amaral says the Stars have to win both games in order to qualify for Kootenay Cup playoff rounds. Tonight's game in Trail is at 6:30 at Sunningdale Park and is the last meeting between the two clubs. Watt gone fishing VANCOUVER (CP) — Tom Watt kept up a brave face when he left Tuesday amid speculation he won't return as head coach of the Vancouver Canucks. Unperturbed that the odds are lengthening against his return, Watt insisted he was going fishing, not job hunting, at his lakeside cottage in Ontario after two days of meetings with new president Pat Quinn of the National Hockey League team. “I'm going back home because I want to get some time at the cottage with my family,” said Watt. “It may end up down the line that I'll be going to the Soviet Union, so that my summer vacation is very short.” Watt was referring to the agreement negotiated between the Canucks and Soviet sports officials in which Watt is supposed to spend two weeks at the training camp of Centgal Red Army in July. The prospects of Watt, 51, returning to Vancouver look more doubtful each day. Quinn has indicated he will inter. view other candidates for Watt's job, including Rick Ley and Bob McCam. mon, during the next two weeks. Canuck vice-president Brian Burke Quinn may also consider playing. assistant coach Mike Milbury of the Boston Bruins. Ley said in an interview he would retain Jack MclIlhargey as assistant coach if he were given the Vancouver job. HARD HITTER... Caroline Dayis smashes a tough shot deep in her opponent's court. Caroline and her husband Jim were getting in on the Great Canadian Partici- paction challenge CosNewsPhoto by Mike Kolesniko FORMER CANUCK BUBLA JAILED OVER HEROIN VANCOUVER (CP) — An RCMP spokesman said Tuesday former Vancouver Canucks player Jiri Bubla is being held in an Austrian prison facing charges of conspiracy to traffic in heroin. But Bubla’s wife of 13 years, Ivana, said in an interview she knew nothing of such charges. “I just spoke to him last week and he didn't tell me anything,” Mrs. Bubla said in a telephone interview from the couple's North Vancouver home. She said her husband, who now is in the import business, told her he was visiting with friends in Spain when he called Friday. “I'm not very interested in his job because I'm so tired from hockey all these years,” she said. “I'm quite busy with the children (two boys, aged six and 10).” RCMP Staff Sgt. Smokey Stovern said Bubla was arrested April 17 in Vienna. At the time, the world hockey championships were under way in Vienna, but Bubla, a former National Hockey League def was not partici Stovern said the arrest followed an Austrian police investigation into a drug overdose death in Vienna. RREST NEIGHBOR Austrian authorities also arrested Joe Janda of North Vancouver in February and recovered 11 kilograms of heroin. Janda, who like Bubla is originally from Czechoslovakia, is a neighbor of Bubla’s. Bubla, 37, played five seasons with the Canucks after getting permission from Czechoslovakian hockey officials to emigrate to Canada. He retired in the spring of 1986. Mrs. Bubla said her husband had phoned her three times since leaving for Europe on a business trip in mid-April and neither the federal government nor the RCMP had contacted her regarding the arrest. “Why didn't they tell me?” she asked. “I don't know where they (the media) got the story.” id she had been told so many different ‘it makes me laugh . . . because it’s a little much (to believe).” Mrs. Bubla noted her husband's name is quite common in their native Czechoslovakia. Close to tears, she said she is worried about the reactions of her sons when they hear the reports. Flyers drag series on . EDMONTON (CP) The Philadelphia Flyers don't know how to die, especially when everyone is trying to throw dirt on their grave. /A®amontonians bragged Monday and Tuesday about celebrations which were to follow the Oilers’ Stanley Cup victory Tuesday night. “Yes, we heard about all the plans and we love to be spoilers,” said defenceman Doug Crossman, who had one of the Philadelphia goals in a come from-behind 4-3 victory that sent the best-of-seven championship to a sixth game Thursday night in Philadelphia with Edmonton ahead 3-2. “Anytime we can ruin a parade, we love that,” Crossman said. Although they're one win away from their third championship in four years, the Oilers were leary of the Flyers’ reaction to the celebration talk “We didn’t want any part of that stuff,” said defence. man Kevin Lowe. “We knew we were playing a tough team that always seems to have nine lives.” In the first 10 minutes, Jari Kurri and Marty McSorley, with his first of two, staked Edmonton to a 2-0 lead. But the savageness of the offensive attack could easily have produced four or five goals HEXTALL SHINES “Ron Hextall held us in there long enough,” said forward Brian Propp, who masterminded the Flyer rally by setting up all four goals. “We got a lot of courage from his playing like that.” They got some inspiration earlier when coach Mike Keenan had the Stanley Cup brought into the dressing room. The players decided they didn’t want to easily surrender their chance to win it. “We figured this was going to be our last shot,” said Lindsay Carson, one of a handful of Flyers playing hurt. “We had to keep showing up and grinding away.” The Flyers survived strong Edmonton attacks in the opening minutes of each period and managed to never fall behind more than two goals. “We got up 3-1 and then got back on our heels,” said Wayne Gretzky. “Again, we got ourselves in trouble. We got ahead of ourselves in the sense that we had a couple of opportunities that we should have put in but missed. We didn’t finish them off.” Rick Tocchet's 10th playoff goal, with 50 seconds left in the first period, was the Flyers’ first real spark of life. The Oilers struck early in the second to nullify that goal. The line of Propp, Tocchet and Pelle Eklund, the Flyers’ best whenever Keenan puts them together, turned the game on their first shift after MeSorley’s second goal They stormed the Edmonton goal and although they didn't score, they created opportunities and that gave the Flyers renewed life. Salekin Staff Writer The Castlegar Rebels are looking for a new president after Earl Salekin stepped down from the position at the club's annual general meeting Sunday. In an interview with the Castlegar News, Salekin said he just does not have enough time to carry out the duties of president of the team's board of directors. “I don’t have the time, working shift work. You miss half the games,” said Salekin. Salekin, who has been involved in various hockéy organizations for more than 16 years, said the Rebels had a “successful season” financially, finish- ing the year in the black. The club had expenditures of about $43,900 while bringing in total gate receipts of $15,402.97. Other revenue came from things like raffles and their annual slowpitch tournament. “We made a couple of thousand doll- ars. Last year we lost money, that’s why we feel we had a very successful year,” added Salekin. He said the club “looks really good financially” going into next season and ded that the Rebels’ hockey program one of the biggest moneymakers there is.” Also open is the club's secretary position, after it was vacated by Bren- da Terhune. Some of the team's directors include Orlando Vecchio, John Sapriken, Rudy Martini, Fred Voykin and Fred Plan- idin. Rod Zavaduk has been returned as vice-president and Dorgthy Martini moves from registrar to treasurer after Sharon Isfeld stepped down. Zavaduk said “our team is a solid go” for next season. “We've already got a good amount of players coming back,” said Zavaduk. He added that the executive will be meeting soon to elect a new president and secretary and after that the exe- cutive will pick a coaching staff, positions which are up for review each year. ‘Hit Man’ ready for Olajide bout TORONTO (CP) — A promoter for Thomas (Hit Man) Hearns said Tues- day the Detroit boxer is ready to negotiate a bout for the International Boxing Federation middleweight crown against Canadian Michae) Olaj- ide. “I think Hearns wants the fight very badly,” said Bill Kozerski, a Detroit promoter with strong ties to Hearns. But IBF president Robert Lee, whose sanctioning body was recently taken to court by Hearns after it was frustrated in attempts to arrange an Olajide-Hearns bout, called reports of renewed interest by Hearns in the IBF title “absurd” and “insulting.” “I don’t think that would be goad,” Lee, speaking from New Jersey, said of renewed efforts to stage an Olajide- Hearns fight for the 160-pound title. “I think it would have a detrimental effect on the other (ranked) fighters. “Here's a man who refused to answer whether he was going to fight (Olajide) or not I don't think we can go back wards and deal with Hearns anymore.” Hearns is ranked No. 1 among “We knew it was no time to be down,” expl Tocchet. “We had come back from injuries, we had come back from deficiits, it’s the character of this team.” Crossman at 8:08 and Eklund at 12:40, on a power play, pulled the Flyers even. Propp created the winning goal early in the third period. He stole the puck from defenceman Craig Muni in the corner and fed it in front to Tocchet who scored. After that, the Flyers, the second-best defensive team in the league all season, neutralized Edmonton's offence to preserve the win. “We're not one game away from elimination anymore,” said Crossman. “We're two wins away from the Stanley Cup.” s by the IBF. while Olajide, a native of Vancouver who campaigns out of New York, is ranked No. 2. Hearns currently holds the World Boxing Council light-heavyweight title TITLE VACANT The IBF middleweight title was de clared vacant following Sugar Ray Leonard's victory April 6 over cham pion Marvelous Marvin Hagler. Leon ard won the WBC crown from Hagler but the IBF declared its title vacant because it had not sanctioned the bout. THOMAS HEARNS . looking for fight The IBF instructed Hearns and Ola jide, as the two top contenders, to at. tempt to.come to terms for a bout to fill the title. When the two sides failed to reach agreement, the sanctioning body then held a purse auction among porm: oters interested in staging the fight. Olajide accepted terms of the $1.2 million US winning offer submitted by British promoter Frank Warren but the Hearns camp failed to respond. The IBF then stripped Hearns of his No. 1 status, prompting the Detroit fighter to go to court to fight the move on the grounds the purse auction process was flawed.
