It was the first time ever for curling in the Gardens and many Toronto sports fans—accustomed to hockey — took a sort of wait and see attitude to- ward the first curling show. T h e sponsors, Toronto Kiwanis International and Curl - Master Broom Com- pany together with Maple Leaf Gardens officials, are already studying plans to hold the Tournament of Champions again next year. Norm Houck and his Winnipeg rink gave Mani- toba curling a real shot in the arm with his impres- sive victory on a 6-1 record. Manitoba has gone through a few lean years in Brier championships, but Houck's success should prove a tremendous lift to Mani- toba's young curlers. Houck's rink was by far the most consistent of the eight in the round robin series and although his aggressive style of play and strategy was dangerous on the somewhat tricky ice; he used it successfully. TRICKY ICE The ice was a problem for all the curlers at times and the result was many more misses than you would generally find with the calibre of players who competed at the Gardens. Though the ice was good considering the short time there was to prepare curl- ing ice in the Gardens. It improved during the final two days. There were no alibis as conditions were the same for everyone. I think the idea of the competition is an excellent one, but I feel that it would be better to start at least a couple of days after New Year's Day and give both players and spec- tators a chance to recover from the holidays. Some players found it difficult to get keyed up to this contest in the same way they would for the Canadian Championship Brier. The winning Winnipeg rink were tuned for this even t, especially Norm Houck, although they had not competed as a com- plete team this season be- fore reaching Toronto. UP AND COMING Bob Mann's Ontario rink from Hanover was another with great desire and they gave everyone in the tour- nament plenty of competi- tive trouble. With skip Mann's experience and the enthusiasm of his young players they can become an outstanding rink if they stay together for another four or five years. Doug Cameron of Char- lottetown, a calm and thoughtful strategist was slow getting started but had the distinction of being the only one to defeat the champions. Cameron's rink is capable of beating any team on any given day. They only lack regular ex- perienced competition. This is also true of Mike Slyziuk's Detroit team which is strorg on experi- ence but lacks tough com- petition. As to my record in the event, perhaps it is better to do as I say in the in- structions, and not do as I did in the Tournament of Champions Norm Houck of Winnipeg, winning skip of the first Tournament of Champions.
