'This century has been neted
.for.famous medical men w'iose
diligent research work event-
ually yielded .miraele serums
'like Bantinc..i's insulin :and Salk
v.eccine, relieving thousands
from endless pain And suffer•
ing.. But seldom have we
heard,- of dedicated physicians
toiling in search of formulas
outside the field of their train -
Now word seeps .out of
Saskatchewan that a mild-
ina.neered ineclieo in Saskatoon
has developed an antidote to
relieve the aching muscles and
sleeplessnights of countless
urlers in bonspiel time,
Two Dr. George
Beall persuaded Saskatoon
Bonspiei officials to take a
whirl at a new mechanical
draw system on which he had
been doing laboratory studies
for a period of 10 years.
i The idea had been germinat-
ing in his eurling-conseious
mind ever since he had heard
of Jim Weyman's noble expertrnent with an automatic draw
competition in the famous
Quebec International Bonspiel,
simple genius
Weyman's system had the
simplicity of genius and was
admirably suited to the car•
nivel spirit of overwhelming
hospitality for which the "In-
ternational" has been known.
:lt • consisted of a single string
of events in which rinks were
shuttled down with each loss
to the next competition. No
rink, therefore, could be in
more than one event at a
:time se bonspiel tie-ups and
delays were summarily elim•
Mated.
Each rink was provided with
a card on which all events and
di
.draws were charted,iced and
timed. Gone were the days
when the lead man had to keep
in constant touch with the ice -
room by phone or carrier
pigeon in order to notify his
skip when to put the cork in
the bottle.
This efficient, streamlined
system was carried a step
farther and introduced to the
Manitoba High School Bon -
spiel, at the request of the
writer, by Al Archer in the
late forties when he was a
young commerce student.
Archer devised a colored
card system foreach game.
The pasteboard was placed
'behind each sheet of ice by
the umpires and was divided
into • three detachable sections.
The upper section was for
.the score and skips' signa-
ture. The middle portion was,
retained by the winning rink
and indicated the ice and time
for the next game. The lower,
section went to the loser and
directed him similarly. The
unique system completely elim-
inated errors in oral direction'
or typewritten instruction, It
was tabulated, checked and
double-checked, and a card
for every game was ready:
days before the first draw got
under way.
Adds few wrinkles
The indefatigable Dr. Beall,
who is so immersed in his
new-feund hobby that he is
vacating his busy medical
practice for the entire month
ef February to take on the
duties of the drawmaster at ,
the North Battleford, Regina
and Saskatoon rock-fests in-
relying some 650 rinks, has
added a few copyrighted
wrinkles ef his own to the
mechanical draw.
Borrowing from golf, the
doctor of draws has added
curling* lights and copied the
idea' ef seeding name rinks!
from the tennis moguls. By '
Combining the three ingred-
ients, the old horror, long -used
in Western Bonspiel circuits,
of having two main events and
a 'double string of minor com-
petitions with all their attend-
ant evils of (1) Concessions to
friends and dignitaries; (2)
Back -breaking four draws per
diem; (3) Late shifts followed
by the up -at -sunrise draws:
(4) Delayed finals, waiting for
a rink with. a long winning
streak to be defeated, have

in Legion spiel
Two rinks, representing the
Exeter Legion, competed in the

Comprised of Charlie Shane,

Art, Cann, second and Bernice
Cann, lead, the foursome won
two games and ended up with
a plus of 13, but lost a thrilling
7.6 final in the Renwick rink
Earlier in the day, the ririk
defeated teams frcnn Sfra tford
and Burlington to gain a berth
in the final.
The two ladieS on the Egeter

Winners alone that make a

Shane holds margin,
five rinks unbeaten
Only five rinks remain un
defeated in the Men's Curling
club as play commences for
the last hall of the South End
Service draw.

slight lead in the race, coming
up with a hard-fought 10-9 win
over Allan Westcott, to give
him 38 points in the first three
games.
Dick Jermyn follows closely
on the leader's heels with 37
points after his five -point win
over Harvey Cowen. Mac Hod-
gert holds down the number
three spot with 34 points, while
Art Cann and Bill McLean are
tied in fourth position with 33
points each.

donated the trophy for the
draw.

honors with his 17-5 triumph
over'John Corbett's foursome,
while Dick Roelofson emerged
with a 14-5 win oover tflrie
Snell to tak2 third place in the

Elmer Bell and Charlie
Smith teamed up in the closest
battle of the night, with the
Exeter lawyer emerging with
the win in the extra rock after
the two teams played to a 11-11
tie in regulation ends.
Play was not as close this
week as it has been, and there
were only two one -point wins
recorded. These were picked
up by Shane and Mac }lodger
over Westcott and McTavish
Ernest Gerson, Glenn Mick]
and Harry Snell each skipped
their squads to two-point wins
