Original Toronto Star caption: Winning football is a tradition at East York Collegiate and the possibility of injuries doesn't worry such players as Mark Waite, above. Albert Campbell Collegiate in Scarborough and 14 northeastern Ontario schools have branded football as dangerous and dropped the game -- a move that is raising controversy. Many doctors say football causes injuries.
