Goderich met stiffer competitiati on Sunday when they came up against the Tilsonburg Major team but they still managed to win8-3. Garrow scored five goals for Goderich in the first period while Tilsonburg only managed one. Tiisonburg scored two goals in the second period and kept Goderich from scoring any. But Goderich came back again in the third period with three more goals. Two of these were scored by Garrow, with one Battle of the Sexes a change of scenery Battle of. the Sexes Bon - spiel was a day of good fun and interesting curling,The teams arrived decked out in. appropriate attire for the' spirit of the event. The first draw saw the men battling the men and the ladies battling the ladies for the honour of play-off positions. Cam Bogie's team, a last minute entry, of Bill Kuran and Steve Huff arrived tired. and worn out from Satur- day's curling. The ladies felt so sorry for them that they •gave them Stan Paquette, the Draw Master, to give them a full team. That sure was a mistake. Stan, back from his holidays, fresh as adaisy, came out smelling like a rose as he put life back into the tired old bones of his team members. They beat the vibrant and accurate team of Jim Morris, Mike McKeown, Glen Carey and Terry Worsen. Jim says next year, his boys will turn up tired so that they can get those crazy wicks off other rocks when they miss the broom. Representing last year's club champions, Charlie Crawford led his team of Roger Bois, Dennis Muskie and Barry Page to victory over the GDCI boys\ of Del Mitchelmore, John Peters, Jeff Dykstra and Keith Hallen. There are some who claim the GDCI boys would have won if they had not been shaken a hit to see their opponents, all pillars of the Community, running around M their red or white long johns. In a cute short kilt, Elaine Bois skillfully led her youth- ful team of Joanne Hood, Joanne McKeown and Kathy Morris and came very close to upsetting the pros of Faye Ribey Eleanor Erskine, Kay King and -Nancy MacKinnon. Lastly the GDCI girls in their short skirts, looking so sweet and lovable, took on the Maitland Golfers who were dressed in hockey pants, sweaters, helmets and holey socks. Sucha sight would scare anybody and it gave the old ladies the edge to come out with a wilt That turned out to be another mistake for the ladies , because these weird old ladies had to non -curl against the revived old men on Cam's team. So in the 2nd draw, the Maitland Golfers, Sue White, Kay Duncan, Penny Peters and Lynn Todgham remained ladies and the men won. Last year's champs defeated Faye Ribey's team in the last end, again. Jim Morris defeated Elaine Bois and the GDCI boys and girls didn't complete their game so they could all remain friends. As everyone sat down for a • social time, Stan Paquette • 306•4310 classic sign &design INC DIN gave out) the good ana Dad news. The Club Champion for 1981 is Cam Bogie's team.

The third one was scored hyStanbury with only two seconds left in the game. White -got three assists, Bowman got two and Trebish and Terry Pannabecker each got one. ' After only an hour's rest, Goderich met the host town Acton team and defeated them 2-1 in an exciting championship game. Garrow opened up the scoring for Goderich with an unassisted goal at the 4:26 mark of the first period, But Acton tied the game up less than a minute later. Garrow scored the second 'goal for Goderich unassisted eight seconds into the second period and then the team hung on for victory. Goderich goalie Tom Durnin played an absolutely remarkable game in net as his team mates began to tire out. He stopped many break- aways with amazing dex- terity to keep Goderich in the game. • Goderich coach Steve Buchanan said the cham- pionship win took 'total team effort' and was well- deserved. He said he was pleased to see the boys finally win trophies for their efforts after narrowly missing out on them at other tournaments throughout the year. "It was a great way to end the season," he said, adding, that Goderich hockey fans should keep an eye on Scott Garrow in the future. "He's a hockey player who could be going places." Garrow scored 25 goals in the four Acton tournament games to bring his total for the year to 185 goals -in 42 games.
