i aa fan wa er M WHITBY SPORTS PARADE By GERRY BLAIR Brooklin and district sports fans can expect the best possible brand of lacrosse this season, as the four time Intermediate champion Brooklin lacrosse club is moving up to Senior ranks--certainly without a doubt the number one calibre in Canada. Playing in the OLA Senior, league along with Brooklin will be the * Mann Cup champion Port Credit Sailors, St. Catharines Athletics, and Brampton Excelsiors. Niagara Falls ap- pear as a possble entry--a definite answer will be forthcoming from their management very shortly. Bill Steffler, of Hillcrest Dairy in Whtby, one of the most prominent backers of sports in the Whitby area is picking up the sponsorship for the executive of the Brooklin club--who will be known as the Brooklin Hillcrests. Alvin Puckrin a veteran of several years with the Intermediate ¢lub has been named as man- ager, while Lou Vipond, with 28 years experience be- hind him as player, coach and referee, will handle the céaching duties. The Hillerests have a very cap- able and energetic executive under the presidency of "Mr. Lacrosse" Gene Dopp. The initial work-out of the players was held in the Whitby Community arena on Monday night, with 15 hopefuls on hand from To- ronto, Newmarket and surrounding communities, plus four or five of last year's Minto Cup finalists, ihe Whitby Red Wings. More experienced players are expected to join the club later, including six of the defunct Peterborough Senior club. A second practice session will be held at noon on Sunday, also in hitby. The dirt floor of the Brooklin arena is two or three weeks away from being completely dried out after the hockey season. Brooklin Hillcrests open their 24- game schedule on Wednesday May 24 in Brooklin if the arena is ready--if not it will be played in hitby. ; TOWN AND COUNTRY . . .

Best wishes for a speedy recovery are extended to Mrs. Skitteral Partner Receives $661 In Damages Two Dutch immi, set- tled a partnership disagreement in a civil action at Whitby County Court, Monday. The plaintiff in the action, William Goverde, a Whitby realtor and former carpenter, charged that John Hartjes, of Church street, Pickering, had failed to pay him half of the profits of a house built on King street in Whitby while they were in partnership, in 1954. Goverde testified that he was building a house on King street in Whitby financed by George Hamer, another Dutch immi- grant, who owned a plumbing business in Whitby. Goverde was missing one of the floor joists and went to Pickering to borrow one from Mr. Hartjes. They discussed partnership at the Hartjes home and Hartjes went to work on the house with his son the fol- lowing day. A joint account was opened in a Whitby bank and a verbal agreement of partnership was made. The lot on which the house was built had previously been owned by Mr. Hamer but was signed over to Hartjes because he was a married man and could get a mortgage easier. The house was finished in August of 1954 and was listed for $12,500. Goverde claimed Hartjes had sold it to a friend for $11,800 while he was absent never did much time at the house. In the rebuttal Goverde claim- ed he never saw any of the accounts and asked Hartjes for a financial statement which he received showing the profit from the house. Judge A. C. Hall in judgment stated that the evidence was considerably varied but he be. lieved that the plaintiff went to the defendant's house and there was some talk of a partnership and a joint bank account was opened. He said he was always impressed by people coming over from Europe wanting to start their own business and be independent. Judge Hall said he believed| there was a conditional partner- work at any An Oshawa man who stole $2 from a Whitby home was Tues- day sentenced to one month in jail.

John Hartjes, the defendant in the action, said no partner- ship had been arranged and that he started to work for the plaintiff at $1.50 per hour. He worked for two weeks and quit when he received no pay. Mr. Hamer then. visited him and signed over the deed of the lot to him so he continued the job paying all the bills. Hartjes said he looked after every- thing and then sold the house.
