LONG LIVE THE TORY PARTY! CFL CHAIR STAYS, PENZOIL A PARTNER

          During the CFL Board of Governors' annual meeting on
     Friday, the league retained Chair and Acting Commissioner
     John Tory along with "holding the line" on the C$2.1M cap
     for player salaries on each team this year when a new CBA is
     "needed," according to Grant Kerr of the Toronto GLOBE &
     MAIL.  Tory told the Board of Governors that the CFL hopes
     to turn a profit in '99, but refused to disclose how many of
     the eight franchises lost money.  Tory added that new CBA
     talks will resume soon.  League President Jeff Giles said
     that corporate sponsors Molson Brewery, Chrysler Canada, Tim
     Horton Donuts and adidas "will return to bolster CFL
     finances, along with newcomer Penzoil."   Giles: "There's a
     tremendous amount of interest from corporate Canada, more
     than we've seen before. ... Our goal for 1999 is to double
     sponsorship revenue" (Toronto GLOBE & MAIL, 4/10).
