And the ability to switch from takeouts to draw weight on any given shot can be the difference be- tween success and failure in curling. By the same token, it is necessary to be able to switch from the draw type of play to hitting with equal effectiveness. You should switch to the draw game from hitting when you are down two or three shots. It doesn't pay, however, to gamble too soon unless you have your weight down reasonably well. Should the ice be tricky and hard to hit on, it is best to switch to a draw game as quickly as pos- sible. You might also try to • get your opposition hitting. LEADING Generally it is advisable when you get ahead two or three points to try to hit everything in sight. Opposi- tion stones, either out in e • .A. Williams, O.D OPTOMETRIST 9 PATRICK STREET W. WINGHAM Phone 357-1282 front, or in the house should be removed. In case you are not for- tunate enough to have a good hitting team, you are better off to stay with the type of game you were playing when you attained a lead of two or three shots. The secret is to get the other fellow playing the style of game you are best at and this requires some forcing of action on your part. If you are better at hitting than at draw, and are playing a good draw team, try to get them shoot- ing as soon as possible. To do this you must keep the front clear of all guards or they will force you to play their game. When playing a good hit- ting team and you don't feel you can hit with them, draw your rocks in front of the house and wait for them to miss. When they do, either raise .or draw around your front rocks. Then as long as you can keep them hitting you have the advantage. CONDITIONS My experience in all types of competition has been that the condition of the ice has a tremendous bearing on the style of game one should play. And this is particularly impor- tant to a new or somewhat inexperienced skip. When playing on ice that is straight and keen you will find it just as easy to hit as it is to draw, and so f kfIN! rilini il 1 HAVE IT DRY CLEANED!

Should the ice be heavy and swingy, you will find it much more difficult to hit than to draw. So, the first team to get the draw weight down will have the advan- tage. Playing on crooked ice that has kickbacks where the rock falls against the turn, it is much easier to draw than to hit. Under these conditions, if you can keep your opponent hitting you should have no trouble winning your games. It all boils down to be- ing strong and accurate enough to make your op- ponents play the style of game at which you are best. Excellent Hockey Juveniles Take Detroit Team 9-3 The more than 600 cheering fans spurred the Wingham Le- gionnaire Juveniles to a 9-3 victory over the Detroit Juven- iles in Saturday night's second game. The local boys put on one of the best exhibitions of hoc- key the local fans have seen in many years. Their good posi- tional play and crisp passing brought roar after roar from the crowd. Perhaps now the local team will get some support, af- ter the display they put on, against Detroit. Wayne Maslen led the Legionnaire's attack with 3 goals. Doug Campbell notched 2 goals and an assist. Other Wingham scorers were Jon Bate- son, George Kerr, Jim English, and Martin Garniss. This Friday the Legionnaires play host to the Hanover Juven- iles, at 9 o'clock. See you at the arena? BRIDGE CLUB North and South: 1. O. Haselgrove, Mrs. R. Hethering- ton; 2. C. Hodgins, Mrs. H.

The other four teams were hold- ing their own too. Elaine Colvin, Helen Case - more, Vicki Wild, Al Hafer- mehl and Jack Walker spared for us, for which we thank them. After a two week absence, our pal, Ruth Lott came back to take the high single with 268 and the triple with 683. Methinks she should share that Tonic with the rest of us. Joe Schneider, however, swears by Root Beer. He took the men's high single with 297 and the high triple with 723. Team standings now are: Hurons '77; Crees '76; Sioux '73; Iroquois 67; Apaches 44; Mo- hawks 40. Checked with Rita Cameron and was pleased to hear that while she may not be able to bowl just yet, her leg is im- proving and she is hoping to get back to join her team- mates before our season ends. Root Beer or Tonic, anyone! 0--0--0 MEN'S TOWN LEAGUE Jack Caesar of CKNX bowl- ed the high triple of the night, hitting 753, and also rolled the high single 369.

SCORE 10-3 Midgets Lose to Detroit Squad Minor Hockey Night in Wingham last Saturday could be called a "howling success", A winter storm was howling out- side utside and the sizeable crowd was every bit as noisy inside. The evening began at 7:00 with the Detroit and Wingham Midgets. Early in the second period, Detroit led 2-1 on goals by North and Pilote and Wingham's goal scored by Mit- chell. But then Detroit got through to Wingham, scoring six goals in the second .eriod, three of them within a space of five minutes. In the first four minutes of the third period, Wingham scored twice, Renwick and Deycll being the marksmen. Wade, in the Detroit net, call- ed a halt to Wingham's scoring from then on, his team-mates added two third period goals for a final score of 10-3. At the conclusion of the Midget game, two teams of Squirts took to the ice and the crowd was noisily appreciative of their efforts. They're real crowd pleasers, and the young- sters take their hockey quite seriously. Their performance spoke well for their coaches, Del Ewing and Jim Bain, Two tickets to the Feb. 22 game in the Olympia at De- troit were the main prize of the evening. W,O,A,A, Presi- dent Johnny Crewson dropped the opening puck of the night, and made the draw for the tickets. The winner was Wal} ter Woods, of RAZ. 1, Wing - ham. WINS HIGH SCHOOL 'SPIEL—John Ma - dill's foursome came out on top of the Huron -Perth Conference bonspiel for high school boys played here last Saturday.

In the first game at 9o' - clock a Wingham rink skipped by Glen Madill defeated Clin- ton 8-5, Mitchell won over Listowel and Stratford was de- feated by Exeter. Another Wingham rink skipped by John Madill defeated Goderich 7-6. At 10:30 the girls had their Goderich Blasts Wingham 12-1 After a fine exhibi-ion of hockey Saturday night the Wingham Squirts coasted to a 12-1 defeat at the hands of Goderich on Monday. The Wingham boys were strong in number and enthusi- asm, but the expert skating and shooting ability of the Goderich club seemed to have them stumped. Goderich both out -skated and out -shot the Wingham lads. Better tighten up the skates boys, we are going to have to practise a lot harder. Wingham: B. Hilbert; B. Brown; D. Leitch; D. Murray; B.
