about being a foster parent is when a foster child comes

15 people hurt

QUESNEL (CP) — Fifteen people were taken to
hospital with undetermined. injuries early Saturday
after a y d bus slid off red High
97 and ended up on its side.

Quesnel RCMP were at the scene about 10
kilometres south of here. Some 26 passengers were
believed to be aboard the bus when the accident
occurred on the highway covered by about five centi-
metres of snow.

None of the injuries was believed to be serious.

Mafia head nabbed

ROME (AP) — Italian police announced Saturday
the arrest of Giuseppe Calo, long-sought “big treas-
urer” of the international Mafia crime organization
and reputed boss of the powerful Sicilian Mafia in
Corleone.

Police said two of his associates also were
arrested.

Calo, 54, and the other two — Antonio Rotolo, 39,
and Lorenzo Di Gesu, 52 — were picked up Friday
night at an apartment Calo owns in eastern Rome,
police reported.

Calo was considered “the king of finance,” police
said, because he allegedly recycled hundreds of
millions of dollars of Mafia profits every year, invest
ing in real estate, bonds and other legitimate busi
nesses around the world.

Levick freed

BEIRUT (AP) — British businessman Brian
Levick, kidnapped March 15 in mostly Moslem West
Beirut, was freed unharmed Saturday, British officials
said.

Levick, 59, became the second westerner to be
released among the eight Europeans and an American
who have been abducted at gunpoint or disappeared in
Lebanon since mid-March.

“I confirm that it is true that Mr. Levick has been
released,” British Ambassador David Miers told The
Associated Press. “I don't have any other details at
the moment, but he is definitely free.”

Boy dies in riot

UITENHAGE, SOUTH AFRICA (REUTER) — A
four-year-old black South African boy died Saturday
when a crowd fire-bombed his home as rioting that has
claimed over 300 lives in the last year flared anew,
police said.

The boy's mother escaped from their house in a
township at the Indian Ocean town of Port Elizabeth
in the troubled eastern Cape after the attack, but he
perished in the flames, a spokesman said.

Residents said his mother worked for a local
councillor. Councillors, their relatives and staff have
become targets for rioters who see them as stooges for
the white-minority government.

BCIT contract

BURNABY (CP) — British Columbia Institute of
Technology and its 600-member staff society reached a
tentative three-year contract Friday calling for a
°7-month wage freeze in return for 71 layoff notices
being rescinded.

Patrick Thomas, chief negotiator for the society,
said the tentative agreement still has to be ratified by
both the society and the institute

The society is planning its ratification vote for
April 10-12. The institute will probably hold its vote
next week.

“If we have to cut one more cent

says the board was legally

Heinrich directed.

But Johnson said lawyers for the

only that a budget be sent in — and

Threat publicity needless?

TORONTO (CP) — It was “only asking for trouble” to
announce a threat by Armenian terrorists to bomb Toronto's
transit system Monday, the chairman of the Toronto Transit
Commission says

Julian Porter said in an interview Saturday five false
alarms on the system occurred Friday night and “that for me
represents a continual problem . . . we seem to be asking for
trouble.

“It's just not the customary thing that's done in other
major metropolitan centres during such a situation. I just

Jack Marks, Metropolitan Toronto Police chief,
announced an Armenian group had demanded the release by
10:30 a.m. EST Friday of three men charged with murder in
the March 12 hostage-taking and killing of a security guard
at the Turkish embassy in Ottawa. The trio are in custody in
Ottawa.

Marks also announced a massive security search along
the 1,300 kilometres of Toronto transit routes. Security had
been tightened discreetly since Tuesday, and by Friday all
5,333 Toronto police officers not on holiday were on call

KEEP THREATS QUIET

But an informal Toronto Star survey of London, New
York and Los Angeles showed police forces rarely publicize
terrorist threats.

“We receive these threats all the time,”
Steele, a spokesman for Scotland Yard in London

It is

usually just a nefarious means for some group to gain

A police statement said only that the transit system had
been threatened, without specifying a target or time.

Marks said the RCMP and provincial police are involved
in the two-pronged approach. While uniformed officers
check TTC vehicles and property, intelligence officers are
trying to track the movement of suspected terrorists.

The Toronto Globe and Mail says intelligence sources
have identified two main Armenian terrorist groups
operating in Canada — the Armenian Secret Army for the
Liberation of Armenia and the Justice Commandos of the
Armenian Genocide. Police have extensive files on both
groups and believe many of the Armenian terrorist incidents
around the world are directed from Canada, the newspaper
said

The communique Tuesday came from a group calling
itself the Armenian Secret Army for Liberation of Our
Homeland.

Toronto has experienced three incidents involving the
Armenian Secret Army for the Liberation of Armenia. On
Jan. 5 and 13, 1983, it was responsible for bomb explosions
that damaged property. In May 1982, four men who police
said were secret army members were arrested after
extortion attempts and a car bombing

The Turkish government estimates more than 60 people
have been killed and 200 injured in attacks by Armenian
terrorists around the world in the last 12 years.
