That was Dave Scatcherd's re- sponse to a two day evint blessed with good weather, good spirits, good golf and a good number of people. The Seventh Annual Dave Scatcherd Invitational Classic, held at Oakwood Inn near Grand Bend, went off without a hitch. "It was the best tournament we've ever had at Oakwood and 1 don't know how to do it any better," Scatcherd said of the event. The main objective of the tourna- ment is to raise money for the Scatcherd Children's Centre in Lon- don -- a facility which has helped save hundreds of retarded children from institutional care by giving them a "head start" in life. Proceeds from this years tourna- ment have been put toward a brand new 12 passenger van which will be used by the Centre to pick the children up at home and drive them back and forth from the London fa- cility. Scatcherd turned over the keys to the S24,000 vehicle during the final dinner Wednesday night. The invitational tourney featured sport celebrities, among them for- mer Toronto Maple Leafs Paul Henderson, Darryl Sittler, and Dave Hutchinson. After a charity dinner Wednesday night, a number of sports figures, led by Father Joe Nelligan, assem- bled to pay tribute to Alan Eagle- son (Executive Director of the NHL Player's Association and founder of the Canad*Cup Series) with a light hearted roast. Bad weather seemed to threaten as the roast got under way when a thunder storm dumped rain on a huge dining tent set up to accom- modate more than 2(X) diners, but Sittler managed to turn that in Scatcherd's favour too. When a loud burst of thunder drowned out the ex - Leafs speech, he cooly remarked: "That's from Harold Ballard, 1 guess." The golf tournament was won by a team from London, made up of Darryl Wilkens, Kerry Wilkens, Grant Caddottc and Tom Tripp. Jim Bedard of Zurich won a mi- crowave oven for coming closest to the pin on number 18 while Emer- son Desjardine of Grand Bend won a colour TV in a draw.

Co-op Juniors on slide EXETER - The action unfolded unfavourably in the Great Lakes Men's Baseball league for Exctcr Co-op Juniors last week when they dropped a 5-2 decision to Listowel Thursday, then fell victim to Lake- side in a double header Sunday. Juniors were unable to come up with the defensive play necessary to win the game Thursday. Every Lis- towel run was unearned. Leading 2-0 at the beginning of thc fifth, Exeter's opponents man- aged to score three times without a hit. Scott Russell came in to re- lieve pitcher Terry Cox in the sixth and managed to shut them down. Exctcr scored in the fifth when Cox singled and was brought home by Brent O'Brien. Fred Grcgus sin- gled in the sixth, stole second base then came home on an error. Lakeside handed Co-op Juniors 12-4 and 6-4 losses Sunday when they played host to Exctcr. Lakeside built up a 7-0 lead by the end of the third inning in game one. In the fifth, a two RBI single by Gregus gave Exctcr some hope, but Lakeside matchcd that with two more runs in the bottom of the in- ning. Errors allowed Darryl Little and Doug Schade to score in the fifth and sixth; but the effort was not enough to earn them a win. Lakeside again jimpcd out into thc lead early in game two, scoring three runs in the second. Three more in the fourth put thc game out of reach for Juniors who scored two runs in the fifth and two runs in the sixth. Russell recorded a home run in the effort.
