Original Toronto Star caption: Exercise break on picket line; Employee Andrew Lane tosses a football around on the picket line at Lily Cups' Markham Rd. plant yesterday. The union went on strike Sunday night after rejecting the firm's final offer. The football garb was intended as a joke on the plant manager; a former Canadian Football League player.
