FROM ALAN COWIE
Two under par 68 was the leading scratch score in Saturday's North Scottish Golfers' Alliance fixture at Forres. 
Near perfect overhead conditions enabled Allan Cameron (Fortrose and Rosemarkie) to garner six birdies - 3rd, 4th, 6th, 14th, 16th, and 18th against bogeys at the par-3 fifth and seventh and a double at the second
He led home the field of 105 (highest for three years) by two strokes.
Leading handicap competitor Mike Lyall (Torvean) will have a smaller handicap next week after a 63 off 11 won Class 2 by three strokes.
