The glorious moments of re- capturing the thrill of victory are overshadowed by the mem- ories of mistakes in judgment of the strategy; errors in cal- culating the ice; or just plain and simple stupidity in estimat- ing, the percentage in favor of a shot being made. .to an open style of game with modern precision hitting as practised by today's power play rinks, where the majority of the sixteen rocks are in the vicinity of the back bumpers, cautiousness in making deci- Mons is not cxcusahle. Only two variables enter the pic- ture when the playing area is inhabited by A rock or two; How much ice? How much ..ight? • But with -the average four- sonle and occasionally with the rock -busting brigade, the traf- fic is much heavier when there are many more stones in play. Thus the skips and thirds as engineers in charge of the sig- nal system must be able dif- ferentiate between the red, groan and amber fights when directing the movement of their players' stones into the congested areas. The case of a key guard is a moot point. Have you over been hi a :lain where the op position had three or four sec- onds and you were In coil with the problem of plugging the hole that provided the only access yotir lone counter? What skip 'hasn't? If you fail to "cork the port" you know the jig is up if the scare is tight and the game end in sight. What turn tin you take? 1 -low nitteh ice? 8y this lime you should know, but look again. Are their stones 011 the in -turn or out -turn side that might hell/ your eatite with a nth or a Palk? is it more importaot prti• tee( the swioging torn Or the tttrit that has a kick.back or A rim? Will it aid the cause more it you are a Nile light er a hit heavy'? An accurate guard IS 611E of tutting s most diffitult slitota SO play the pet ten'agea and avoid the Much Used '114" Alibi after the game. Today's illustration cOneettiS takeout shot with the Opposi- tWo toMinlers, AA the second shot is tying 'behind the tee.litio and par. belly protected,. a play to hit No, 1 is called for, An out- run seems the logical answer milers the ice kicks back with the in -turn. 07 Wittig Sicit4E'.5 ARE YoOliRS PLAY TO FkCist\OV 14.1 Irrespective of the end be- ing played, this is a crucial stone and because there os a narrow roadway leading to it with rocks parked' on either side, the amount of ice taken will be of extreme importance. Narrow ice could, be very dis- astrous if No. 3 were driven on to No. 5, so play a full broom ot so, to be safe rather than sorry, take a bit More ice with quieter sweeping control weight. Even. an inside rub off No, 4 is more palatable than %crocking the guard, Since this situation is fraught with danger, here is another precaution, Overweight is ter- tainly not called for unless you have to score two or Mere points to stay in the game ot win on the final end by try- ing fn t double kill on Nos, I and 2. S ECOND CHANCE A quiet hit en No. 1 and gentle roll behind the centre line guard Would be ,illst ctancty then you 'could hope for a chance to got. at the second shot. If the skip's Iasi. rock is in- volved, A quiet tap and lie with 00 Mbre than full tee - line weight should give Yon one point instead Of making your OPPeinentS a gift of two counters. Hindsight is so much better than foresight but it doethq. pay dividends. Next time tree parking lot is crowded take a good look at the spaces availab;e.

Miles provides opposition In the first draw final, Gib- son and Miles battled right to the wire before' the Strathroy rink emerged with a 5-3 win over the Clinton foursome. Gibson gained the final round with a 7-4 win over Thedford's Dick Jamieson in the opener and scored a four -point vic- tory over R. H, Middleton from Hensall. Miles started his rink off on the right foot, scoring the big- gest win of the day with an 18-3 trouncing over Claude Farrow's rink from Exeter. However, the big skip had to go to an extra end to down Bill. Nickel's Stratford rink in the second.match. Clinton had two rocks in the house but Stratford's vice skip, L. P.
