By JIM BROWN The Advance -Times LUCKNOW - Organizers of the NHL Oldtimers hockey game at the Lucknow District Sports Corn- plex Sunday afternoon are really happy with the turnout. The Lucknow Lancers of the WOAA Senior 'B' Hockey League played the NHL Oldtimers in the charity hockey game, in front of a packed house of 1,050. The game was organized by the Lucknow Kinsmen Club, with all the proceeds from the game going to the Lucknow Arena Building Fund. Randy Alton of the Kinsmen Club said, following the game, that between $5,000 and $6,000 was raised. However, that did not in- clude the Blueline Club or souvenir program sales. He noted that the Kinsmen Club did not pay for the building of the area, but are trying to pay it off. The NHL Oldtimers and the Lancers were even at two after the first period and tied at 5-5 after two periods. Each team added • four -more goals in the third period for a final score of 9-9. While the spectators enjoyed the passing and stickhandling display put on by the likes of Andy Bath- gate, Jack Valiquette, Keith McCreary, Dean Prentice, Mike Pelyk, Bob Lorimer, John Miszuk, Dick Redmond and others, it was local hockey legend Paul Hender- son wanted to see. But, Henderson was late in arriv- ing, after being involved in a two - vehicle accident in Wingham. Wingham OPP reported that at 1 p.m. on Sunday, Henderson andhis family were westbound on Hwy: 86 in a Buick Park Avenue en route to the charity hockey game. As he went through the intersec- tion of Hwy. 86 and 4, he was hit by a southbound Astro van driven by Sherry Shiell of RR 5 Wingham. All persons were taken to Wing - ham and District Hospital with mi- nor injuries, treated and released. Paying off the ref•••The NHL Oldtimers did not like the location of the faceoff, so Oldtimer Wayne Carleton offered referee Ron Hoggarth some money to move the faceoff. After four "bribes" the faceoff was down in the Lancers zone. The NHL Oldtimers and the skated to a 9-9 draw in the fund-raising game for the Lucknow Arena Building Fund. Both vehicles were demolished, ac- cording tp police. OPP•reported that Shiell'has been charged with disobeying a red light. Henderson arrived in time to play in the third period, setting upa couple of goals. He even scored a goal for the Lanccrs, as the puck bounced off his stick and in behind goalie Peter McDuffe. While the Oldtimers were serious about playing hockey, they also had a little fun. Valiquette started the game with a 'Hanson Brothers' wig and glasses on. Referee Ron Hoggarth ques- tioned Valiquette on the opening Legion Pee Wees compete in tourney The VVingham Legion Pee Wees won their opening game of the Le- gion Zone C Pee Wee tournament in Blyth, but dropped thcir second • round game to Scaforth, 5-1.
