Brooklin Redrnen lo ok t op layoffs But the question stili remains.. .whatafter that? No one appears to know at this point. According to coach Peter Vipond, a few teams in the league have said they won't play Brooklin because they are certain of defeat. The veteran Redmen player and coach admits his amazement and calîs it ridiculous. "What about the junior lacrosse league?" said Vipond, "(Peter- borough) Maulers are in a league of their own and you don't hear any of the other teams refusing to play them."' He went on to add that the present Redmen team had been built up over 10 years of hard work. "We (Redmen) used to get killed on a regular basis, we were always getting beat, but we neyer gave up. ..never refused to play a good team," he said, "I'm having a hard time understanding where these teams are coming from. " He added he was relieved that Redmen had the backing of the OLA which is threatening to oust JAN KOKE of Whitby Kiwanis stands between Erie Hyde and Vicky Chorley, winners of the men's and women's bikes as top fundraisers & (Chorley, $657 and Hyde, $508) on the Bike Ride for Cancer May 2.

"It's a real mmnd game," said Vipond, "If worse cornes to worse, we (Redmen) will join their league (senior) next year and blow them away... .nobody can stop us." Brooklin and Peterborough are *major teams which play senior league teamns. Vipond is hoping something will be settled at a spécial meeting that has been called for this Sunday to iron things out. Meanwhile he must think ahead to completing this year and readying his team for Mann Cup play. According to the rules now in place, a playdown for a Mann Cup berth wou.ld have to take place bet- ween Peterborough and Brooklin. Vipond is adamant that this be kept to best four-of-seveIl, rather than five-of-nine as was suggested. '.'There's no way I'm willing to go five out of nine. .someone's going to get hurt," concluded Vipond, men- tioning the strong rivalry which of- ten resuits in chippy play and fighting between the two clubs . And he is also concerned about his club sitting around on their duf- fs for a long period< of time waiting until the Mann Cup play starts. He said he feels there would be no problems getting the western league to move up the schedulirlg dates. "They have a great league out there and I don't think there's going to be any problem at ail, " he said.
