Ss Castlegar News p:i!21, 1985 Trail store affected by changeover By CasNews Staff The Bay department store in Trail will be one of 13 across Canada to become Zellers stores on May 6. The change was motivated by the feeling of Hudson's Bay Co. management that stores in smaller communities don’t fit into The Bay's “merchandise profile,” which is more suited to larger communities, said Trail Bay manager Simon Angell Thursday. The major change in what goods are sold will be the elimination of “big ticket appliances” such as television sets and washing machines, he said. “Zellers offers quality at a value price. For the most part, it'll be less expensive (merchandise),” said Angell. None of the store's 17 full-time employees will lose their jobs. “All employees — both full-time and part-time will be offered jobs by Zellers,” Angell said. Zellers Inc. is a wholly-owned sub: -y of Hudson's Bay Co., which also owns the Fields and Simpsons chains. Other B.C. stores to be switched over are in Cranbrook, Penticton, Vernon, Prince George, Quesnel, Smithers and Prince Rupert. As well, three Bay stores in Alberta, one in Quebec and one in Manitoba will be affected by the change, said a company's head offices in Zellers spokesman at the Montreal. Spokespersons at Hudson's Bay Co. head offices in Toronto were unavailable for comment. Angell said it will take three months to fully complete the transition in Trail. ZELLERS TAKEOVER . . . Hudson's Bay Company in Trail will soon become a Zellers store along with 12 other Bay stores across Canada. CosNews hie photo Zellers to TORONTO (CP) — Analysts say the success of Zellers shows the Canadian consumer is increasingly opting for limited-service, lower-quality and lower-priced department stores. Trail is among 13 of Canada’s 260 Bay stores to become outlets of the no-frills Zellers chain as Hudson's Bay Co., which owns both operations, continues its shakeup in an effort to become profitable. The stores — eight in British Columbia, three in Alberta and one each in Quebec and Manitoba — make the switch May 6, Zellers announced this week. Other communities affected include Prince George, Penticton, Quesnel, Vernon, Cranbrook, Prince Rupert and Smithers, all B.C., Fort McMurray and Rocky Mountain House, Alta., Brandon, Man., and Rimouski, Que. “We believe Zellers merchandise and prices are more appropriate for these communities,” said Erie Paul, senior vice-president of operations for Zellers. “We changed over about 14 Bay stores to Zellers last year and hope this new move will be as successful.” There will be managerial changes at Trail's Bay outlet, but company vice-president Bill Evans said the 15 full-time employees would be offered jobs for next month's change- over. The 220 Zellers outlets have been the star performers of Hudson's Bay Co.'s department store chains, making money while the Bay and Simpsons contributed to the firm's $107.4-million loss in 1984. John Winter, senior associate for Clayton Research Associates, said the changeover from Bay to Zellers made sense in communities like those chosen. “These stores are already too small to offer first-line full service, they don't have the Bay image and are operating more like Zellers stores anyway,” he said. “So it makes sense for Zellers to get them.” He added the move should save Hudson's Bay Co. money “They don't have to carry as wide a selection because it's not a full-service store,” he said. “It's another example of how Hudson's Bay is fitting its resources to its abilities better.” The department store chains have hit a rough patch in recent years, learning trying to be all things to all people is no longer as popular with consumers. Specialty chains have grabbed a growing share of business with aggressive companies like Dylex Ltd., which owns Fairweather, Big Steel Man, Harry Rosen and others, making impressive sales gains. VSE stock prices take over As a result, Hudson's Bay has embarked on a series of layoffs and other actions to pare costs and reposition itself in the market. The Bay cut 400 people from its merchandising, promotion and computer departments while Simpsons let go 260 as part of a reorganization that began when it fired 1,600 workers last fall. And the Bay announced a shuffle at the top in January when Donald McGiverin resigned as president and chief executive and was replaced by a management team headed by George Kosich. Cominco to undergo change VANCOUVER (CP) — Cominco Ltd. of Vancouver will undergo a major reor. ganization, Norman Ander. son, chief executive officer, told shareholders this week. Starting May 1, Cominco will be realigned into two divisions, metals and chemi cals and fertilizers. Anderson described the move as “realignment along business lines which will optimize the company’s de. centralized organization.” Bill Wilson will remain president of Cominco and also, become president of Cominco's metals division. John Anderson, who is president and chief executive officer of Cominco American Ine., will become president of Cominco's chemical and fer. tilizer division. “In effect, we are bringing together the chemical and fertilizer groups from Com inco American with the Prairie group to operate as a business unit,” said Norman Anderson. “The end result of this realignment is that Cominco will be a more functional or- ganization, with fewer lay.

But he said the high tax levels in B.C. have resulted in the B.C. group losing money and its workforce has drop. ped to less than 5,000 em ployees from 6,500. Wilson said the company still has some hurdles to ov ercome before it can make a decision on developing its massive Red Dog lead-zine deposit in Alaska. But if these can be overcome the mine could be in production by 1989. “The zine outlook for the balance of 1985 is for im proved prices and consump: tion consistent with a gradual weakening of the U.S. dollar and strengthened Western world economies,” said Nor- man Anderson. “Lead prices, however, will likely continue at low-levels.” Norman Anderson forecast increased fertilizer sales vol umes this year and stable prices for nitrogen and phos. phate fertilizers. But he pre. dicted potash prices would improve by mid-year. couver Stock Exchange. Vol. Levon Resources ume at close was 14,889,759 69 to $3.25 on 957,850, Levon shares.

Walker plays left wing. Kelowna Wings centre Si mon Wheeldon of Victoria, a former Nelson resident was named to the second all-star team. Meanwhile, record-setting Cliff Ronning of New West minster Bruins was voted most valuable player and most gentlemanly player in the league. Ronnig set several scoring records, including goals in 18 consecutive league games and a total of 197 points. However, the 165-pound centreman lost out to Dan Hodgson of Prince Albert Raiders in the voting for player of the year honors. “Everyone who knows these two realize they are both outstanding players,” said WHL chairman Ed Chynoweth. “We want to honor both of them for their contributions to hockey.” Hodgson finished second in the WHL scoring race to Ronning with 182 points. By Montreal has become Mar- io Gosselin's home away from home. For most of the National Hockey League season, the Quebee Nordiques’ rookie goalie made most of his ap- pearances at home in the Colisee, while veterans Dan- iel Bouchard and Richard Sevigny handled most of the road games. “In January, he won two straight games at the Colisee and I started to use him more there,” said Quebec coach Michel Bergeron. “He's a real nice kid and he likes to play under pressure.” There's not much more pressure than a Quebec-Mon- treal matchup, particularly in the playoffs. And when the Adams Division finals opened in Montreal, Gosselin was in goal. He responded by turn. ing back the Canadiens as the Nordiques won 2-1 in over. time. The series resumes tonight in Montreal. In other games tonight, New York Islanders, 3-0 losers in Philadelphia in the opener of the Patrick Division finals, visit the Fly. WORLD CUP ers, and Chicégo Black Hawks resume the Norris Division finals trailing .Min- nesota following the’ North Stars’ 8-5 vietory.- On Saturday night, Wip- nipeg was at Edmonton in the’ Smythe Division finals with the Oilers, the defend- ing NHL champions, leading the series following their 4-2 opening-game victory. Jean Perron, now an as- sistant coach with the Cana- diens, was an assistant coach on Canada’s national team at the Winter Olympics at Sar- ajevo, Yugoslavia, when Gos- selin first attracted attention with his spectacular play.

We want Smith!” in the closing minutes of their firsf‘game victory. Now theyll get him. Ba} Smith, with an 87-33 record and 2.70 goals-aghinst average in the playoffs, will’, be in the Islanders’ goal for the second game. Coach Al Arbour decided to rest Sntith in the Thursday night opener, calling on Kelly Hrudey, who faced 35 shots by the Flyers. “I coul have played,” Smith said,/But I played in s in fopr nights (in dof the playoffs hington) and in do-or-die situations, and that last game (39 saves against the Capitals) wasn't easy. “Kelly played as well as I've ever seen a goaltender play in Washington, and he was great against Philly. It's remarkable we couldn't get him a win in those two games. Putting him in was no mistake by Al Arbour.” Canada wins match VICTORIA (CP) — Canada made it two in a row in its attempt to reach the final round of World Cup soccer qualifying with a 2-1 victory over Guatemala Saturday before 5,202 fans at Royal Athletic Park. Both Canadian goals were by Dale Mitchell, a Vancou. ver-born forward available to the national team only be. cause Tacoma Stars did not reach the playoffs of the Major Indoor Soccer League. Mitchell, 26, provided enough offence to hold off the Guatemalans, who came on aggressively in the second half. In addition, to scoring the goals — at 22:02 and 43:05 — Mitchell was the focal point of the Canadian attack all af- ternoon and set up several chances. Canada defeated Haiti 2-0 last week in the first of its two home games of the second qualifying round. The Canadians. will play Guate. mala May 5 at Guatemala City and Haiti May 8 at Port au Prince. One country will advance to the next round “We knew we had to get four points to give ourselves a decent chance of advancing to the third round,” Tony Waiters, coach of the Cana. dian team, said after Satur: day's game. “We've got the four and the others haven't. Now we have to do what they haven't done yet — win away from home.” After controlling play al most from the kickoff, Can. ada went ahead when Mit chell fielded a long kick by Canadian goalkeeper Paul Dolan, beat one defender and drilled the ball past Guat emalan goaltender Hermegil do Pepe Castro. Waiters called it one of the best goals he had ever seen, “Not only did he put it down, but he spun on it. He was phenomenal to come out and play soccer of that calibre af ter playing indoors all win ter.” Eleven minutes lat@r, Mit chell’s. back-hetl pass sent midfielder David Norman in alone, but Castro made the save. At 43:05, Mitchell con verted a cross by veteran de. fender Bruce Wilson after lan Bridge and Randy Sam. uel headed the ball into the goal area. By the time Mit chell had the ball on his boot, Castro was hopefully out of position. Guatemala, playing its first qualifying game for the 1986 World Cup after drawing a bye in the opening round, had great chances in the first half. 1 jump on them, me By JOHN KOROBANIK EDMONTON (CP) Defenceman Paul Coffey had a record-tying five points Saturday to power Edmonton Oilers toa 5-2 win over Winnipeg Jets and a 2-0 lead in the National Hockey League Smythe Division final. Coffey had two goals and three assists to equal the playoff record for points by a defenceman in a single game. He drew assists on goals by Wayne Gretzky, Kevin McClelland and Mark Messier. Robert Picard and Thomas Steen scored for Winnipeg on power plays. Coffey made a perfect rink-wide pass to send Gretzky in for the first goal and then did the corner work to create McClelland’s go-ahead goal after Picard had tied the game. The top offensive defenceman in the NHL, Coffey then stunned the Jets and dazzled the less-than-capacity crowd of 16,942 with two brilliant individual efforts. He later drew an assist on Messier’s goal to tie the record originally set in 1942 by Ed Bush and later tied by Bob Dailey and Denis Potvin. Coffey has points in his last 16 gam Winnipeg goaltender Brian Hayward, back after missing two games with a groin pull, looked shakey on several of the goals. Coffey’s fourth and fifth goals of the playoffs put Edmonton up 4-1 heading into the third period and they had little difficulty maintaining the lead. The teams now head to Winnipeg for games three and four of the best-of-seven series next Tuesday and Thursday. The defending Stanley Cup champion Oilers established the pace of the game on the opening shift. BASEBALL ROUNDUP Oilers take 2-0 lead Messier, Glenn Anderson and Mark Napier came out skating and hitting. By the time their shift was over the game already had more intensity and emotion than game one, won 42 by the Oilers. It took more than eight minutes and a penalty to Laurie Boschman before the Oilers finally scored. Coffey saw Gretzky breaking down the left side and hit him with a perfect pass. Gretzky, who scored his first playoff goal into an empty net Thursday, faked a slapshot before sliding the puck around Hayward into the net. That was Edmonton's first power-play goal after failing to onset o@ 19 provions chanets ts Sher Menen Meet: Picard scored on a Winnipeg power play at 10:17, his long wrist shot getting past a screened Grant Fuhr in the Edmonton goal. About a minute later Coffey went behind the Winnipeg net to work the puck loose to Anderson who relayed it in the front to McClelland. His backhand fooled Hayward. Then Coffey, one of the leading candidates for the Conn Smythe Trophy as the top player in the playoffs, all but buried the Jets. He scored a power-play goal at 14:11, picking the top corner of the net as he was falling after being hooked. Fubr made a couple of superb saves off Perry Turnbull and Paul MacLean to keep the Oilers in control. Coffey upped the count to 4-1 with the only goal of the second period, a short-handed effort at 1:33. He polished off a rink-long rush with a long slapshot that Hayward couldn't block. Jays win fourth game TORONTO (CP) — Willie Aikens’s sacrifice fly off reliever Don Aase in the eighth inning scored Willie Upshaw and provided Toronto Blue Jays with their fourth consecutive American League baseball victory, a 3-2 decision against Baltimore Orioles.
