LONDON (AP) — Britain had its sunniest April in
more than half a century, beaches were bustling,

and ice cream companies scooped up early profits.

as summer put in an early appearance across
northwestern Europe.

Weather offices in London, Paris and Stockholm
reported record periods of sunshine during the last
two weeks of April as a high-pressure zone hovered
aver the North Sea between Britain and Denmark.

But while summer was evident in northwestern
Eurape, winter held its grip in the southeast, In
italy, temperatures have been lower than normal in
April with higher than average rainfall. Greece
recorded its coldest and wettest April in 10 years,

Dr. Loren Humphrey and Jerry Volenec,

Looked
like
the Mafia

SAN FRANCISCO (AP)
— It had all the earmarks
of a major bust — dozens of
guns and thousands of
rounds of ammunition
stashed in the back of a
Western wear store — but.
it turned aut to be just a
tourist trap for travellers
from Japan.

“We thought we'd really
gotten into something big,”
sald Lieut, Charles
Hoenisch. “We thought it
was.the Japanese Mafia.’

More than two dozen
guns, including a military-

style AR-15, and several -

thousand bullets and shells
were found when police
entered the back of Taro
Kishi’s Western wear store
Sunday, police said. :

It turned out the store
Japanese
tourists who have a fond-
ness for the Old West,
taking them to a rifle range

where they could fire the

guns.
“They got their picture to

take back to Japan,"

Hoenisch said. ‘You can't
own guns in Japan. I'm
sure they charged a hand-
some fee. You just strap on
a couple of six-shooters and
fire away."

It turned out about 50
Japanese a month paid §50
each to experience the
range, authcrities said.

Kishi was released on $2,
500 bail after being booked
for investigation of,
possessing an illegal
weapon, police said.

Rural doctors trained
at foreign schools

‘WINNIPEG (CP) —
When a rural Manitoba
resident needs medical
help, the odds are it will

come from a doctor who -

was trained outside
Canada. |

A provincial committee
on medical manpower says
British and other foreign
medical schools provide
most of the doctors In
small-town Manitaba. -.

The committee’s latest
annual report says most
graduates of Canadian
medical schools.who go to
work in Manitoba insist-on
living in Winnipeg.

4s a result, foreign-
trained doctors, most of

. them British, account for

more ‘than half the
physicians practising in
rural Manitoba.

In Brandon, Manitoba's
second-largest city, 57 per
cent of the doctors are from
foreign medical schools. In
Winnipeg 31.5 per cent of
the doctors are: foreign-
trained.

So far, efforts to lure
young Canadian-trained
doctors to rural areas,
through special tax breaks
and other plans, have not
had much success,

Qne program offers
either an income tax-free
grant or a guaranteed
annual income to a doctor
willing to set up a rural
practice. But last year, the
program did not attract:a
single application.

terns. .

Dr. George Johson,
chairman of the medical
manpower committee,
says young graduates will
be forced to turn to the
rural Manitoba in the
future, because there won't
be any openings in Win-
nipeg.

“We keep saying to our

kids, ‘Look rural, buddy,"-

because at some point
there isn’t going to be the
jobs out there,” he said in
an interview. ,

Manitoba ranks fourth in
the number of doctors per
capita, behind Ontario,
Quebec and
Columbia. Manitoba has a
doctor for every 510 per-
sons. The national average
is one per 522, the report
said,

But Johnson Said
Manitoba has a chronic
shortage of certain medical
professionals, such as
radiologists, psychiatrists
and opthamologists. The
shortages are particularly
acute in rural com-
munities.

The report said in 1993,
there were 1,424 doctors
practising in Winnipeg,
which has about two-thirds
of Manitoba's population.
There were 94 physicians in
Brandon and only 325 in
Manitoba. The
