Cosmo Filane and his committee did a superb job in organizing this event. I would especially like to acknowledge the for- mat that was used. Most tournaments allow for only two guaranteed games but this format allowed for three. Thank you also for the pop, juice, chips and_ ice cream provided for the players and for ensur- ing that players on every team received tro- phies. Everyone was a win- ner in this Tournament and especially the peo- ple of Schreiber. T.

Fr = balanced nuclear dis- armament and in a posi- tive way for Peace. Six MP's of the Standing Committee on External Affairs and National De- fence issued a report - "'The arms race itself is a threat to security. It is no longer enough to keep the peace; peace must be vigorously wag- ed.'" The report was signed by MP's of all 3 parties: Paul McRae, Jewett, McLean, Ogle, Roche and Sargeant. It is a well-known fact that the U.S.A. has enough atomic weapons to destroy the U.S.S.R. eight times over, and the U.S.S.R. sufficient to destroy the U.S.A. six times over. This is suffi- cient deterrence. We as Canadians are especial- ly vulnerable being in the path of these mass- ive death-dealing wea- pons. Then there are the U.K., French and Chi- nese nuclear arsenals. Who needs more nu- clear weapons, MX's and others? Why the Cruise Missile, the offensive, virtually un- detectable first-strike weapon proposed for ° testing in Canada in 1983? Another nuclear arms race threatens. The answer is a con- tinuing demand for bal- anced disarmament and Peace and_ survival. Canadians and Ameri- cans have expressed themselves in numerous Peace Referenda - ran- ging from 70 per cent to 96 per cent positive vote. The U.S. House of Representatives voted down the MX missile and are balking at fur- ther escalation. In Thun- der Bay, over 39,000 citizens voted posi- tively. This vote calls on our local MP to start working vigorously for Peace and to respond to Set for the massive call - "Re- fuse the Cruise". His leader, PM _ Trudeau, called for the "suffoca- tion'? of the nuclear arms race. For all. Canadians (Thunder Bay citizens included) the nuclear is- sues are 1. Jobs and Bread or Bombs 2. Nuclear poisons or healthy babies. 3. A freeze and elimina- tion of nuclear weapons or destruction of this planet. A challenge of forth- right and peaceable act- ion awaits all of us - make Canada a nuclear free zone, join the cam- paign for Peace and speak out for survival. J.P.
