About 2,540 of the Econoline trucks have improperly routed front brake hoses, Ford said, which rub against the front sus pension coil springs. The contact could cause a hose to rupture, leading to a loss of front wheel braking and increased stopping distance. Of the 429-4V Fords and Mer- curys being recalled, about 65 are suspected -of having car buretor fuel leakage which could result in delayed starting, Ford said.

economy slows down WASHINGTON (UPI) New government figures Friday con- tirmed a slow-down in the U.S. economy in the third quarter but the drop was not as big as originally indicated. The commerce department said the economy grew by $24.6 billion or 8.9 per cent between June and September while prices rose at a moderate 2.4 per cent. pace. In "real" terms, discounting the effects of inflation, the third quarter growth rate was 6.3 per cent, down sharply from the ab normally large 9.4 per cent sec ond quarter jump and more in line with the 6.7 and 6.5 per cent growth rates of the previous two ent months: ago." A The message also drew to the attention of the Cuban govern ment the fact that there has been no reply to a Canadian request that Critton be returned for trial, he said.

Canada has a "very, very small" aid program in Cuba and also provides some aid to Algeria, 'another country where hijackers have been admitted. (Treble Clef's $799.00 stereo system) Your best investment in stereo equipment Our Advent, Sherwood, Dual, 0 system is unique among oil the systems thot can be put together; it is a stereo radio phonograph system that is right, the completely satisfying choice for most people with demanding interest in both music and sound at a price far lower than such a system would have cost just a few years ogo. An ambitious claim, to be sure. But one which, from experience, we are not afraid to make. Our $799.00 system will do the following for you: 1.

It reproduces the entire frequency range of all music, without annoying coloration or distortion, at levels which will comfortably fill your listening room with sound. (Wagnerians and acid-rock freaks not excluded.) It sounds convincing not only on the best recordings, but on the great majority of recordings and broadcasts of all kinds. 3. It has enough controls and features to satisfy your needs, without making you pay for unnecessary frills. (There's ample flexibility for adding such niceties as a tape deck or additional speakers.) 4.

Its performance ond durability are such that it's highly unlikely you'd want to change any of the components for a very long time.1 5. It's fully guaranteed for two years by our own service department. The Advent loudspeakers have over and over again proved true to the claim originally made for them: they provide the kind of per. formonce associated with speakers then and now cost- ing far more. The Sherwood 7200 AMFM stereo receiver is yet another example of the wonderful way your inflated dollar now buys much more real performance in hifi equipment than ever before: 80 watts RMS with less than 0.3 distortion, into 8 ohms, across the audio range (that is over 120 watts IHF).

Sensitive FM performance permits the greatest number of stations to be received in truly listenable-form. I The Dual .1216 automatic turntable does its job smoothly and reliably, its heavy platter turns records at constant speed, quietly. There is a gentle changing mechanism and convenient cueing control. The BiO SP12 cart-' ridge transmits all the sound that "is on the record, and at a record saving 1.2 gram tracking force. Its excellent high frequency capabilities complement the fine high frequency characteristics of the Advent loudspeakers and the Sherwood 7200 receiver.

It comes complete with a diamond stylus. The price of the individual components is $889.00, but you can buy the complete system from Treble Clef for only $799.00 installed in your home and guaranteed for 2 years including all parts and labour.

Simpson, president of the Canadian Air line Pilots Association, presented Mr. Sharp with a letter for Prime Minister Trudeau during bis morning meeting in the min ister's office. The letter said the association was shocked by the violence of recent hijackings and the dis regard for international law by countries harboring air pirates. It asked that flights from Canada to all 6uch countries be suspended along with any foreign aid now being given.

"I can understand the position of the pilots," said Mr. Sharp when he spoke later with "They-are' risking their own lives as well as those their passengers. 1 Deueve they ougnt to be very strongly supported.

The meeting was arranged in the wake of a U.S. hijacking last week in which three armed men commandeered a Southern Air ways jet and forced the pilot to fly to Cuba twice in a bizarre ordeal that lasted nearly 30 hours. At -one point, FBI sharpshooters shot out the tires of the aircraft as it was taking off and the final landing in Cuba was made on a runway covered with foam. Captain Smith said the FBI action breached an agreement with U.S. airline pilots under which no intervention is sup posed to be made by police without the expressed request" of the pilot.

Captain Smith said Canadian pilots have a similar arrangement with the RCMP and, while not concerned about a similar breach in Canada, they wanted to make sure there was no change in "Canada's position with other governments on this matter.
