BOARD WALK: MAPLE LEAF SPORTS RESTRUCTURES ADVISORY BOARD

          Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE) has "retired"
     its advisory board consisting of "six close associates of
     Majority Owner Steve Stavro," according to Tony Van Alphen
     of the TORONTO STAR.  An MLSE spokesperson said that the
     company's BOD concluded recently that "the group had
     outlived its usefulness."  MLSE CEO Richard Peddie: "The
     time had come and we just retired them. They were very
     helpful and made a contribution.  We still have an excellent
     relationship."  Peddie noted that the group's "perks," which
     include "two top seats to all Leafs games," will end.  The
     advisory board included Donald Crump, Chris Dundas, Terry
     Kelly, Ted Nikolaou, Ron Pringle and George Whyte.  Some
     members of the group were "key" execs in the former unit,
     Maple Leaf Gardens Ltd. (TORONTO STAR, 8/30).
