Susan Smith 655-3932 Brown's Foodmaster (before noon Saturday) Golf in Canada burning bright The future of golf in Canada is burning bright - with Windsor's 13-year-old Audrey Bendick and Barrie's 18-year-old Jim Garner as the standar- dbearers of tomorrow. Bendick and Garner highlighted play in the City Buick Pro-Junior Golf Classic, one of Canada's most prestigious junior golf tournaments, at Toronto's Islington Golf Club. They won the Red Burnett Memorial Trophy as the champion Junior Girl and Junior Boy with the lowest gross scores in the two-day competition. In the team competition, it was an experienced three- some from Thunderbird Golf Club, just North of Whitby, ina a runaway charge to take the City Buick Trophy. The Thunderbird team of club pro Wilson Paterson, junior girl champion Tammy Eng and junior boy champion Bob Zellie came from six strokes off the pace on the opening day to count a two- round total of 435, four strokes better than their nearest rival. Bendick, a determined shotmaker from Windsor's Hydeaway club, fired a four- over-par 76 to go with her opening 81 to tally a 157 gross score. Garner bettered some of the professionals in the tournament as he started off with a first-day's count of 72 and then added a 73 for a total 145, one over par. Jackie Fellinger of Toron- to Willo-Dell was second in the junior girls' competition with an 82-78 for a 160 card while Leslee Davis of Toron- to Credit Valley was a stroke back with 161. Burlington's Peter Clark and David Wettlaufer of Kit- chener Rockway tied for Whitby OPP save rape victim A Whitby OPP officer rescued a woman who had been abducted and raped twice Friday. Constable Lorne Hunter had heard the liscence num- ber of a van broadcast on the radio, moments before he pulled the van over on Hwy. 401 at Brock St. The 22-year-old Scar- borough woman had been abducted at her home on Friday, said police. Police said that the woman was raped, once in the parking lot of a plaza at Kingston Rd. and Mor- ningside Ave. and a second time at the Pickering GO station. The license number of the van had been turned in by a concerned citizen after he had seen the van crash and offered his assistance to the driver. The driver of the van was belligerant and the citizen thought him to be drunk. When Hunter stopped the van, he found the woman in the back along with a knife and two loaded .38 calibre guns. Charged with rape, for- cible confinement, abduc- tion, and possession of a dangerous weapon is Ivan Blake Brown, 32, of West Lounge Avenue. second in the junior boys' scoring, each with a 148. The Red Burnett Memorial Trophy is given to the tournament junior girl and junior boy with the lowest gross scores in the tournament. The Burnett Trophy is in memory of the late Toronto sports writer long regarded as the dean of National Hockey League writers and a longtime sup- porter of junior golf in On- tario. For the Thunderbird trio, it was the first time in the tournament's history that a club has won the team com- petition more than once. In 1976, Thunderbird took the City Buick title and was runner-up in 1977. Miss Eng, now 18, was on the 1976 championship team while Zellie was a member of the runner-up trio in 1977. The team competition puts together the gross score of the club professional with the net scores of his club's junior girl and junior boy champions over the two-day tournament. Over 60 teams from golf clubs throughout Ontario took part in the highly acclaimed com- petition. Kitchener's Merry Hill was second in the team play with a two-day tally of 439; third was Windsor Hydeaway, last year's champions, with a 439; Lon- don Highland was fourth with a 440; next were Niagara Falls' Cherry Hill 443; Toronto Islington, the opening day leaders, with a 444; Toronto Credit Valley 445; St. Catherines and Oak- ville each with 446; while Scarboro and Brampton tied with 447. Bendick "'as clearly the outstandina, individual in the tournarient. She awed the large gallery, with veteran golf watchers comparing the 5-foot Windsor schoolgirl to Canadian golfing great Marlene Stewart Streit. "That's a real com- pliment," said Bendick, when told of the comparison. "As a matter of fact, Mrs. Streit gave me some golf tips last year. I just hope I can do just half as good as she did." There are several obvious comparisons between Ben- dick and Streit - both are small but make flawless shots and both play with CONT'D ON PG. 14 VANITIES NOW STOCKING 24",' 30", 36", 48" with tops MITCHELL BROTHERS Building Supplies Ltd.
