Championship RouncPobin Game! - Truck Stop 6-Reds- Mainstream Canada Readers of weeklies are the real losers By H'. Roger Worth The recent postal strike may have inconvenienced a lot of Canadians, but the country's country's small business' community community got clobbered. The big national companies companies compensated by setting up their own delivery systems, or using expensive courier services. services. Smaller firms, on the other hand, were deprived of new business orders, forcing them to lay off employees. And payment of bills ground to a halt, ensuring the businesses businesses would have to increase their bank loans -- at interest rates of 21 to 23 per cent. Other firms were not so fortunate and many are now involved in bankruptcy or receivership proceedings. The country's 1,100 or so community newspapers that rely so heavily on the postal service to deliver their product to readers were among the hardest hit by the mail strike. Game 1 saw Nan's Truck stop come up against the Orono, this turned into a cliff hanger with the Reds coming up with the winning run in the Top of the last inning. Game 2 Saw the boys come out full of determination as a loss would have put them on ' the sidelines. The boys came up with 4 big runs in the first inning and never looked back. With Nan's truck stop winning this game all the teams had one win and one loss. With runs for and against deciding the finalists. Game 3 Truck Stop 19- Jays 4 The championship game saw Nan's truck stop play their third game of the day against the Bowmanville Jays who were playing their se : ' cond as they played the Reds • on Friday night in their first game. With Jeff Martin Pitching his third straight game of the day and the rest of the team still flying high from Game 2, they struck for 7 runs in the second inning and never looked back for a 19-4 win and the championship. CONGRATULATIONS GUYS: A GREAT TEAM EFFORT.

And that weekly editorial and advertising package is important important to Canadians, no matter matter how much condescending editors and reporters on big city city dailies may underrate the contribution made by the community-oriented publications. publications. Community newspapers play a vital role in the natipn, particularly in outlying areas of the country where editorial comment and news about happenings on the local scene are hard to come by. The proof that ,these smaller papers are important: the number of publications is growing, and circulation continues continues to increase, even at a time when some urban dailies have been closed down. The fact is, there are too few voiçes of reason in the country and allowing postal workers to hold community newspapers and their readers to ransom is indeed unfair. That old adage "the mail must go through" has become a standing joke in Canada. It's time the country's legislators put things right by outlawing strikes in all essential essential services, at the same time allowing smaller newspapers to serve* * the varied needs of their millions of readers.
