   * ALBERTA [NS] 00:09:33 08:07:30 2PHONERS/Albertans go to the polls
     today. so we're having one of our regular reports from that province
     this morning. Peter Stockland is on the phone in Calgary. Paula Simons

   * BANKRUPTCIES [KM] *** 00:17:12 08:19:00 1exTOR/1exWPG/When Eaton's
     sought protection under bankruptcy laws a week and a half ago, it
     raised all kinds of questions about how the bankruptcy system works.
     Two people are with me to help us with that. Frank Bennett is a
     bankruptcy lawyer; he's here in Toronto. Brock Cordes is a lecturer at
     the University of Manitoba; he also runs his own business, called
     Seabrook Industries.

     - Eatons applied for CCAA (Companies Creditors Arrangement Act)
     because it allows courts to give them protection from their creditors,
     stops those creditors from grabbing Eatons' assets...Eatons will
     probably pull through, some some of their suppliers may go
     bankrupt...who gets paid first: employees, federal government - for
     taxes, secured creditors - fixed assets - such as buildings,
     furniture, cars, finally - unsecured creditors, which means suppliers
     and shareholders...the board of directors can be held responsible if a
     company goes belly up - that's why the board of governors resigned for
     Canadian airlines...banks often lend companies less money than they
     need to get out from underneath - because that makes it harder for the
     companies...

   * MOXY FRUVOUS [IP] *** 00:22:23 08:37:00 4exTOR/In a couple of
     minutes, I'll be talking with the members of Moxy Fruvous, who have
     brought along a copy of their forthcoming CD for a world premiere. But
     first, Moxy Fruvous is here to give us a live rendition of the new
     CD's title track, "You Will Go to the Moon".

     - You Will Go To The Moon will be released April 22...the e-mail
     address for Moxy Fruvous is moxy@passport.ca...Their tour includes

     Guelph on the 24th, Ottawa: May 30th and Winnipeg July 12 and 13...
     Michigan Military is, what the band calls, hip-hock bluegrass...our
     American audience likes to hear the songs that have Canadian
     references - just like we're interested in Midnight Oil (singing about
     Austrailia), U2 (Ireland) or REM (Atlanta)...internet has increased
     our regcognition factor - we'll play a date in a U.S. city and people
     will show up and we'll wonder: how did you know we were playing? and
     the answer is the net...met Pete Seeger - learned how he wrote "we
     shall overcome"...

     - HOUR TWO - TUESDAY

   * ZAIRE [HS] 00:11:39 09:06:30 1exWASH/For months, a civil war has been
     underway in eastern Zaire. The result of the war so far: thousands of
     refugees, and a very uncertain future for Zaire's President Mobutu.
     Iain Guest is senior fellow with the U.S. Institute of Peace. He's in
     our Washington studio.

     - no independent sources of information - since relief workers flew
     out from Kinshasa last week...yes, there are serbian, russian and
     ukranian mercenaries...Mobutu has done little for the welfare of his
     people, that's one of the reasons why there has been so many
     problems...rebel leader Laurent Kabila is stopping freedom of movement
     for reporters and UN officials - in fact he won't allow aid to more
     than 250,000...in central africa: 14 countries are suffering from
     major food shortages - this may be the most destablizing time in
     Africa's history...question is how do we intervene? not militarily -
     in a search for war criminals, instead, we must wait until crisis is
     over to get aid to the population...

   * BAGEL SLICING [SJ] 00:04:30 09:22:00 PHONER/There's a trick to slicing
     a bagel so that you don't slice yourself. Danny Zand knows a thing or
     two about bagels. He's president of the Great Canadian Bagel's Western
     division. They sell tens of thousands of bagels every week in
     Saskatchewan and Manitoba. He's on the phone from his home in Regina.

     - Don't cut bagels vertically - put bagel on table, cut horizontally,
     holding the bagel down with your hand until you're 2/3 of the way
     through, then stand them up...cut bagels before you freeze them...
