end Steve Telfer, have
refused to report to British
Columbia Lions of the
Western Football
Conference, general
manager Bob Ackles says.

the team’s final roster of 33
players.

Lions last week in deal
which sent Wayne Smith to
Toronto Argonauts of the
Eastern Football
Conference, while Teifer’s
rights were obtained from
Montreal Alouettes for
future considerations. .

Monday, she defeated one
of the new boats,
Independence, by one
minute and seven seconds in
their first race and by 54

on Rhode Island Sound.

The two victories gave
Courageous a 4-0 record in

had driven his boat through

A new and effective
