Frantisek Musil was considered the best defenceman
in Europe when he played for his country, Czechoslo
vakia.

But the defenceman, who joined the Minnesota
North Stars during the summer when club general
mana, Lou Nanne aided in his defection, must now
concentrate on playing in the National Hockey League

It took Musil eight games to get untracked offen
sively, but he began repaying Nanne and the Stars with
his first NHL goal in a 7-4 victory Tuesday night over the
Calgary Flames.

Red hot Dino Ciccareili scored twice for Minnesota,
and Brian Lawton had one goal and two assists. Calgary's
Perry Berezan scored on a penalty shot in the second

In other games, it was: Quebec Nordiques 6. Los

Angeles Kings 2; Hartford Whalers 5, Pittsburgh Pen
guins 2; Toronto Maple Leafs 2, Chicago Blackhawks 1;
Washington Capitals 5, Vancouver Canucks 2, and New
York Islanders 2, Philadelphia Flyers 1.

‘GREAT FEELING’

“It was a great feeling,” the 21-year-old Musil said after
breaking a 3-3 tie. “I was pressing a little bit. The first
goal is the hardest.

“I'm going to send the puck home.”

Ciccarelli, whose 13 goals are one behind league-
leader Mario Lemieux of Pittsburgh, thought the penalty
shot swung things in Minnesota's favor, even though
Berezan beat goalie Don Beaupre on it.

“They scored and maybe they sat back on their heels
a little bit,” Ciccarelli said.

Nordiques 6 Kings 2

Brent Ashton scored three goals in the second period
for the Nordiques, as Los Angeles lost all five games on
its Eastern swing. Peter Stastny had one goal and three
assists, and Paul Gillis and Alain Cote also scored for the
Nordiques. Jim Fox and rookie Jimmy Carson scored
goals for Los Angeles.

Ashton converted Stastny’s pass from behind the net
at 3:24 to break a 1-1 tie. He struck again with Quebec
shorthanded at 10:36 on a breakaway after blocking a
shot at the blue line and scored again with 21 seconds left
in the period.

Maple Leafs 2 Blackhawks 1

Russ Courtnall assisted on the tying goal and scored
the winner for Toronto.

Chicago scored just 29 seconds into the game when a

bouncing puck glanced off the backboards and onto the
stick of Al Secord, who flipped it past Leafs goaltender
Ken Wregget. But that was it for the Blackhawks, last in
the weak Norris Division at 2-6-2.
Whalers 5 Penguins 2
Ray Ferraro scored twice in the third period and
assisted on Torrie Robertson's game-winner for Hartford,
which stopped everyone but Lemieux in handing the
Penguins only their second loss in 10 games.

RESCH TO
MAKE NHL
HISTORY

By NEIL STEVENS

Canadian Press

TORONTO — On July 10, 2003, Glenn Allan (Chjco)
Resch expects to make National Hockey League history.

That'll be the day Resch, now 38 and the oldest
player in the league, turns 55 and becomes the first
retiree to be handed a cheque for $250,000 in accordance
with a post-career package being set up by the NHL
Players’ Association.

Executive director Al Eagleson has referred to it as
severance pay.

The payment will be in addition to regular pension
benefits that will provide Resch, a backup goaltender
with the Philadelphia Flyers, about $32,000 a year for life
beginning at age 55.

Resch is in his 13th season. When he started back in
1978 the pension plan was worth less than one-10th what
it is today. The 1986 plan provides $4,000 for each year of
service. Thus, players beginning careers today, will look
forward to much bigger pensions than players of Resch’s
era.

Those numbers are in 1986 Canadian dollars, which
will buy much less in 2003 than today. Still, it's an
attractive retirement stipend — one that the association
will improve on in years to come. And it certainly is a
much more lucrative retirement scheme than those
available to the average Canadian worker.

To guarantee such post-career security, there is
plenty of long-range, megabucks planning going on in the

offices of the NHLPA in the Thomson Building across the
“Koni Toranto city ball. a

Millions of dollars are being invested so that a huge
account will be available when the payments begin to
flow.

Twenty-five years down the road, circa 2012, the
association is going to be in the midst of distributing $47
million worth of $250,000 lump-sum payments to the 190
players in the NHL today, averaging 29 years of age, who
will meet the eligibility requirements by the middle of the
current season.

That's only the beginning.

The scheme is funded with $15 million the 21 team
owners agreed to give the association during the next
five years.

VIPs may get half
of Olympic tickets

CALGARY (CP) — The
general public will be able to
buy about 75 per cent of the
tickets for the 1988 Winter
Olympics in Calgary but
could have access to only half
the seats for the most
popular events, the Olympic
organizing committee says.

The committee, dogged by
a series of prebiems after
ticket application forms were
distributed a month ago,
called a news conference
Tuesday to clarify how tick
ets will be distributed.

Last Friday, the com
mittee said no more than 25
per cent of all tickets would
be allocated to members of
the “Olympic family” —
which includes Olympic offi
cials, government represent
atives, national sports or
ganizations, corporate spon
sors and working members of
the media.

Bill Wardle, vice-president

Tuesday that the public may
get only half the seats at
some big-ticket events.

But he stressed the com
mittee will adhere to the
overall 75-per-cent guideline,
although it will mean telling
corporate sponsors and gov
ernments they can't have as

many tickets as they re-
quested

“We want to make sure

of the public that they won't

" said Wardle.

§ KS CO-OPERATION

“We're going back to the
sponsors and the government
partners and looking for their
co-operation in cutting back
their (ticket) requests.”

Wardle also maintained
that seat quality will be
determined on an equitable
basis. Reports suggesting
VIPs will get all the choice
seats are untrue, he said.

“We don't want the Cal
gary public sitting in the end
zones.”

Earlier this month, an
audit was called into the
ticket system after irregu
larities were discovered in
distribution of some order
forms in the United States.

The latest flap over tickets
began Friday when the or
ganizing committee first
mentioned that 25 per cent of
tickets would be needed for
dignitaries.

Previously, the committee
had said 10 per cent of tickets
would be held back for the
so-called Olympic family.

That figure referred only
to officials directly associated
with the Olympics and did
not include the corporate and
government sponsors or the
working media.

Couple market gift jam

Editor’s Note: Terry and Fran Cormier were residents
of Castlegar for 26 years. They left last August for Kenora,
Ont. where they have started a thriving homemade jam
business.

Some may remember Terry Cormier as the first
operator of the concession stand at the Castlegar
Community Complex or from Terry's Catering service. He
also worked for a short time at the Celgar pulp mill. This
article is taken from the Oct. 21 Daily Miner and News, an
Ontario newspaper. Teriy is working as a laborer on a new
medicai clinie building.

Miner and News Staff

Right now in Keewatin, two cooks are busy boiling their
way through three tons of assorted berries — in four-litre
batches.

Since Sept. 2, Terry and Fran Cormier have bottled
over 14,000 jars of homemake jams and jellies for the Lake of
the Woods Wild Fruits and Jam Company.

The Cormiers keep three batches of jam going at a time,
on a four burner range. Each batch is at a different stage of
readiness, so as one batch is finished another is started. The
jams and jellies are poured into 125 and 500 millilitre jars,
then labelled and packaged

The 10 different kinds of jams and jellies are sold in gift
sets, featuring a selection of three or four jams and jellies in
wooden gift boxes, table caddies or baskets. The company
also has an arrangement-with Shoal Lake Wild Rice to
include wild rice in the sets.

Bill McKinnon, one of three investors in the company,
said that currently there are about 20,000 jars of jam and
jelly, stored at the company's warehouse and office in the
Business Development Mall, on Highway 17 west

They will be distributed to about five retail outlets for
public sale and a number of private companies, as employee
gifts.

McKinnon said the company is not trying to compete
head on with big commercial jam producers, instead, it is

trying to develop its own niche in the gift market.

By locating in the incubator mall, the company will have
two years to do a market study. McKinnon said early
indications look good, but he added that they missed most
of the tourist season. In two years he and his partners will
have a strong indication as to whether or not the jam
company is a viable operation.

McKinnon, Dan Campbell and Joe Sniezek, bounced
around the idea of making jam from local berries until June,
when the trio decided to proceed with the venture. By the
first week of July they were advertising for berries from

local pickers.

McKinnon said a lot of berries came to the company in-a
short period of time and they soon had them farmed out in
freezers all over town. When the last berries of the season
rolled in, the company had about three tons

The jam and jelly production began as a cottage
industry, with the company hiring local women to make the
jam at home. MeKinnon said the women all made good jam,
but it seemed they were all using different recipes

The result was jams of varying consistencies and
sweetnesses, from similar berries. This prompted the
company to hire two full-time cooks to make the products,
according to one recipe.

The Cormiers make jams and jellies from wild plums,
saskatoons, blueberries, choke cheeries, pin cherries, crab-
apples, highbush cranberries, northern strawberries and
northern raspberries.

McKinnon said a few of the jams and jellies are in short
supply, because the company started buying berries when
some of the seasons were part way over. As a result, they
didn’t get a good stock of some berries’ He noted, too, that it
was hard to find really productive picking spots for some of
the berries. .

But he added that this summer, the company received a
couple of valuable berry picking tips, so they'll be ready for
next year.
