Richard O‘Brien Chronicle Staff Members of the Region of Waterioo Swim Club have just one more day to wait for the other shoe to drop in an internal squabble. The future of head coach Bob Bruce will be decided at a gemeral meeting tomorrow when members vote on whether or not to renew his conâ€" ROW‘s board of directors had asked Bruce to resign back in April and he was going to do so before a group of parents came to his defence. Other support for Bruce came from some of the club‘s swimmers. A group of senior swimmers from the level he coaches came forward with a written presentation in support of him. There is a serious division in the club and When the Region of Waterloo Swim Club‘s ‘"He gave us a real nice surprise (at the Mutual leadership issue is decided by a vote you can meet)," said Bruce. "He did his personal best by expect Bob Bruce to learn over long distance about five seconds." whether or not his contract will be renewed. Brown will also swim the 200 and 400 freestyle He is taking three swimmers to the Esso â€" events and the 100 back. He is taking three swimmers to the Esso International meet this weekend in Vancouver. The following weekend, he‘s taking five swimmers to another international meet in Edmonton that is one level below the Esso meet. Bruce said he is taking swimmers to the meet where they have the best chance of being finallists. Ray Brown, Linda Gardiner and Nancy Woodhall are the three going to Vancouver. & "At this stage they‘re the people who will be alfle to compete with people from Canada and around the world," said Bruce. Brown specialises in the 200 and 400 metre individual medley events. He hasn‘t competed in the IM in oneâ€"andâ€"aâ€"half months but he‘s expected to be a finallist in both IM‘s along with the 200 back, an event he won at the Mutual Life invitational held recently at Wilfrid Laurier Uniâ€" versity.

There are indications that a vote of confidence for Bruce could lead to at least one other resignation. Dean Boles, an assistant coach who worked for years with Barry and now spends one day a week with Paul Bergen at the swim club in Etobicoke, could step down. Boles trains age group swimmers (approximateâ€" ly 12â€"16) the best of whom graduate to the senior group that Bruce trains. Members have one vote per family and there are over 180 potential voters. philosophical differences have been cited as being the focal point of it. Bruce replaced former head coach Cliff Barry in September and the two have different approaches to the job. . One rap against Bruce is that he is not regarded as a strict disciplinarian. He is also said to have butterfly. She‘ll also be in the 200 and 400 free, 100 fly and 200 breaststroke and IM. Woodhall is coming off wins in the 100 and 200 breast at the Mutual meet and she‘ll also be entered in the 200 IM. She‘s had shoulder problems from the physically demanding butterfly stroke, but she‘s recovering. One weekend later, Tyler Clair, Ron Clark, Jennifer McPherson, Tara Higgins and Marieâ€" Louise Skafte will test the waters in Edmonton. All have achieved national qualifying times in some events and they‘ll be trying for more. ‘"They‘re on the verge of some breakthroughs and we want to use this meet to give them a full meet when they go to the nationals," said Bruce.
