ERNIE RICHARDSON'S
CURLING
CAPSULES
One of the most import-
ant requirements for all
four members of a curling
team, and particularly the
skip, is reading the ice cor-
rectly. And, the earlier in
the game the skip and his
players pick up the many
tricks of the ice, the more
successful the rink will be.
This capability in play-
ers gives them an edge
early in a game, which can
be a deciding factor, espe-
cially in major competition
where the teams are even-
ly matched.
All team members should
know the ice as well
as the skip, and if they do
it will make their shots
easier. It also serves to
give them better judgment
on sweeping of shots where
weight is important.
The secret of reading
the ice is to watch every
stone played from the time
it leaves the player's hand
until it comes to rest. That
means watching stones
played by your own team
and opponents as well.
BEST VIEW
The skip should always
TI -PT 5 NO
Wt\\{ 'TO READ
THE ICF.!
stay behind the tee line
until the rock comes to a
complete stop so that he
can obtain a good view and
make a complete study of
the full course of the stone.
It is also wise to watch
whether or not the rock has
been released on the line
of the skip's broom.
Reading the ice is not
only essential early in the
match but a study must be
kept throughout each game.
You will find most ice
heavier in the early stages,
therefore, when hitting it
is best to have your players
throw more weight than
you would ask for in later
ends.
You will also find the
rocks will curl more as the
game progresses. That is,
of course, the usual result
when the pebble starts to -
wear off. There are often
runs and falls that do not
show up until two or three
ends have been played. In
these cases the ice general-
ly reacts differently with
the variation of weight
played.
Getting the weight and
the amount of draw in the
early ends can mean the '
difference between victory
and failure. You should
have your lead man draw
to both sides of the house
if given the chance by the
opponents. And, if he
should miss the draw it is
best to miss by being heavy.
Short rocks can be a seri-
ous problem as they are
likely to block your chance
of getting at an opponent's
shot stone.
TRACK RUNS
If there are trick breaks
or runs in the ice and you
find them early it is pos-
sible to use this knowledge
to good advantage. Should
there be a bad fall that is
difficult to judge, try to
draw near that run, or try
for a takeout and roll to
the most difficult spot in
the house.
The more difficult you
make the job for your op-
ponents, the better chance
you have to win, and some-
times the determination to
get one particular stone
out of the rings can result
in your opponents giving
up two or more shots on
the end.

CAN VIPERS BE NICE?

from snakebite are recorded in
Europe in any year. In con-

said to occur annually in India.
The only dangerous snake in
