Brooklin denied B hockey team By ROXANNE REVELER There will be no junior B hockey team in Brooklin - at least not this year. That was the verdict of a special meeting of the Metro Jr. B. Hockey League held Monday night in Oshawa. According to Steve Cardwell, one of those who pushed for a Brooklin franchise, the committee, chaired Heart valve FROM PAGE 1 could afford to pay, and how much is appropriate in the circumstan- ces. "It also depends on how outraged the jury is about what happened," adds Evans. The law firm had to fight to keep the suit in California rather than Ontario where the pharmaceutical company would have preferred it. In Califirnia, Evans reports that "awards are traditionally 50 - 100 higher than they are in Ontario." The valves, which have now been taken off the shelves by the FDS, were supposed to last for a remarkably long period of time, unlike previous brands. "I was built up to believe that they were machine tested, and would last for 20 years," says Wallace. "I was pretty happy about that up until the second year." $47,000 raised for stroke research Whitby chapter members and volunteers of the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario were recen- tly congratulated by chairman Jim Gartshore for a successful fun- draising year. At .the annual meeting it. was revealed that Whitby had raised $47,000 in the past year. About $37,000 of that amount was raised during the February campaign alone. About 86 cents of every dollar goes to research and education on heart stroke. Gartshore will continue as chairman until the position can be filled on the new executive. Secretary is Erma Wood, treasurer Norm Hancock, publicity Marni iorrison, in Memoriam chairman Trudy Ruest, education committee members Joyce Hill, Grace Guthrie, Ted Farrow and Dr. R. Bhargava. The Whitby chapter is also seeking a campaign chairman for the coming year. Anyone interested can call the office in Oshawa (King St. W.). At the annual meeting, a video presentation, "Keepin" the Beat," was presented. Education commit- tee reported on the display held at Dupont Canada Inc. and one plan- ned for the seniors centre in Juiy. The chapter also noted that R.A. Sennett and E.A. Fairman elemen- tary schools have been declared smoke-free. The fundraising target for next year by the chapter is $50,000. The chapter encourages organizations to undertake projects such as dan- ces or skip-rope to help to help raise funds. The next meeting of the chapter will be Oct.- 5 at the Durham Regional Police building Whitby. by Colin MacKenzie, turned down the application after questioning the strength of Brooklin-Whitby Minor Hockey Association. After the midget team folded.last year because of a lack of players, they (Metro Jr. B. Hockey League) were doubtful there would be enough local talent coming up through the ranks to support a-team in this area," said Cardwell. "There had to be unanimous ap- proval and apparently several of the other franchises turned us down because of the lack of plays in BWMHA." Cardwell also expressed shock at learning that BWMHA had turned down tieir request for ice time in Brooklin. "We have to get our homework done over the winter and work with the Brooklin-Whitby hockey organization to see what can be . done,"headded. Cardwell told The Free Press they would either re-apply next year or look into purchasing another franchise and moving it to Brooklin. Upon questioning he ad- mitted there was an un-named franchise he felt would be available for purchase, but not this year. Cardwell, a former professional hockey player currently employed by Labatts, was only one of a party interested in bringing junior hockey to the.Whitby area. He was joined by Peter Vipond, a former pro player with the California Golden Seals, and now coach of Brooklin Redmen lacrosse squad; Whitby fire chief Ed Crouch; and Mike Gray, former general manager of Redmen and present chairman of the OLA. The plan was to have the Brooklin '.eam, which would play home FROM PAGE 17 also of Hamilton. "Heather and I are doing so well together. We have a great relation- ship" says Crouch. "We've done so well in suen a short time, it's great. That doesn't happen to very many teams." Their coaches for the past three years have been Lorne and Sheils Holditch . Before, Crouch trained at Cherry Hill, New Jersey, recognized as hnme of the finest coaches in the world. "There really wasn't any coaching at that level in Canada," says Crouch. As for his own future, Crouch has also looked at coachaîg aiju even choreography, on ice. He has already been offered jobs in Australia, Japan, Germany and Whitby men' s slo-pitch SCORES UP TO JULY 1/87 Barron Moto Water Bed Hermetic People's Casey's Waterbed Texaco Hermetic Waterbed Waterbed Hermetic Kelsey's Team rs 4 Brothers 10 Kelsey's 13 Casey's 15 Circle 12 Circle il Pat & Mario's 13 Brother's 20 Kelsey's 18 Circle 23 Brother's 5 Circle 16 Peoples STANDINGS W L T Hermetic Service 8 2 1 17 Casey's Restaurant 7 2 0 14 Texaco Chiefs 6 3 0 12 Ian Barron Motors 6 3 0 12 Waterbed Company 6 6 0 12 Brothers Pizza 5 5 0 10 Peoples Jewellery 5 6 0 10 Kelsey's Restaurant 4 8 0 8 Circle Taxi 2 9 0 4 Pat &Mario's 0 7 1 1 Health fair Any seniors who would like to stay healthy are invited to the Seniors Health Fair on July 13 at the Whitby Seniors Activity Centre.

"I want to be able to pass my talents on to Canadians. It's my country....I want someone to step in- to my shoes." Expensive shoes they are. The boots, specially made in San Fran- cisco, cost $1,000. The plates come from Italy and the wheels, costing $80, come from the U.S. with the ball bearings from West Germany. It's a big step from the youngster who went to his brother's hockey game and saw rollerskating next door. "I wanted to try it and that was that," he recalls. Later, "Someone in the skating federation told me I should be competing. I went into the Ontario (competition) and it went from there."

"They will all have their own back yard and private entry," he added. All the one-bedroom suites will be broadloomed, have their own kitchen and bath and be fitted with heating and air conditioning. "We hope for a very special place, as special as Brooklin it- self," said Hunter. "We plan a lan- dscape place close to the creek, church, part, family and friends." Hunter has recently dug a causeway to the east of the proper- ty and plans to build a walkway along the tree-lined route south to a proposed nature area. A bridge across the water will lead to farm fields where tenants may choose to plant a garden. Hunter has appeared before the Brooklin and area senior citizens committee and indicated he received a good response from them. The committee, chaired by Bill Wallace, is made up of representatives of the community, seniors and members of all chur- ches in Brooklin, Ashburn and Myr- tie. It was formed some time ago to look into the possibility of construc- ting a subsidized seniors' facility in the Brooklin area. However, accor- ding to Wallace, the questionnaires filled out by prospective tenants, indicated that the majority, although interested in a seniors' facility, did not want subsidization. During the BrookLil Spring Fair, Hunter, with the assistance of Bruce andWilma Bagg, set up a booth and asked local residents to fill out a similar questionnaire. Ac- cording to Hunter, 78 of the hun- dreds spoken to were interested enough to fill out the papers and of these 98.5 per cent were in favor of his seniors' complex. Hunter plans to operate the facility by private well and septic tanks and is as yet undecided whether the units will be on a rental or purchase basis. "We hope for the perfect place for active retired people who want to enjoy the advantages of a com- fortable well-run retirement residence," he said. Hunter has a model of his proposal, as well as photographs which will be available at the public meeting next Monday night at the municipal building. Crouch is top skater Town buys boat works FROM PAGE 3 "It's important that the Town maintain that association to the water rather than have it in private hands," he said. He said there could be future development in the harbor area and "We want to make sure we have some control over the waterfront. "I don't think a lot of people realize the potential down there." «A study on Port Whitby is currently being made. A final report, as well as a planning staff report, is expected to be presented to administrative committee in the fall, said Rycroft. Emm and Rycroft were unaware of the exact selling price of the Whitby Boat Works property, but Rycroft said the cost could be "in excess of $1 million." games out of Luther Vipon Memorial arena on Saturday after- noons, join the Macenzie Division along with Oshawa Legionnaires, Pickering Panthers, Markham Travelways, Peterborough Roadrunlers, Kineston Voyageurs and Belleville Bobeats (who moved this year from Trenton). Money was no problem for the prospective club. They had already received guarantees for more than half of the $60,O00 required to get a new franchise going. Twenty spon- sored sweaters at $1,000 each had been sold and 30 of 50 voting shares at $500 each. The principals were not in- terested in starting up a junior C entry as they felt it would not ser- ve the purpose of developing local athietes for a higher level of junior play or university action.
