The same applies if your team is not do- ing too well. Saw Carl Lott having a "heart to heart" with the Apaches and they came up with a good single game, scoring 13.6. Now, if they would just do as well in the other two games, someone (not mention- ing names) might have a good run for that trophy. The Apaches were very proud of Maxine Taylor who earned a point for her team by taking the high single with 244. Dot Templeman took the high triple with 625. Norm Cameron decided to keep both honors for himself. He took the high single with 328 and the high triple with 748. Nice go- ing, Norman! Team standings: Sioux 90; Crees 85; Hurons 83; Iroquois 79; Apaches 50; Mohawks 42. Our spares were Vicki Wild, Helen Casemore, Elaine Colvin and Jack Walker. We were all pleased to hear Anne Geddes is well on the road to recovery.

Plans Available For Nesting -Box For Bluebirds Over the past few years there has been a drastic drop in the numbers of the Eastern Blue- bird. Several factors are be- lieved to be responsible, includ- ing severe storms and wide- spread use of pesticides in the southern United States, where most bluebirds winter. The Federation of Ontario Naturalists has encouraged the public and its members to build nesting -boxes for the bluebird. Many co-operators report boxes being used by blue- birds or tree swallows. Now a new design has been produced to try and eliminate cats and raccoons stealing the eggs or young. This 'predator - proof' box features a split- level design — with the entry beside and above the nest sec- tion. A baffle is built in on the inside of the box. Plans for this new design bluebird nesting -box are avail- able from the Federation of On- tario Naturalists, 170 The Don - way West, Don Mills, Ontario. Please include a five -cent stamp to cover postage. Now is the time to build the nesting -boxes, as it will not be too long before the first blue- birds will be returning to South- ern Ontario. The first arrivals are often seen about Mid -March. The nesting -boxes should he placed on fence posts, old trees, or buildings — from five to ten feet above the ground, and preferably facing either cast or south. Bluebirds usual- ly attempt to raise two broods in southern Ontario and one brood farther north.

ERN I E RICHARDSON'S CURLING CAPSULES There are times when it pays to be just a little bit generous in curling, pro- vided you don't do it too often in the same game The point in question is when the opposing team is counting two, three or four shots against you with the shot rock well guarded. It is better to play the draw for second shot rather than go after the shot rock. It is wise to be generous enough to let the opponents count one. If it is in an extremely close game, it is foolish to take any un- necessary chances, Wait for a break. Better still, try and make a break later. Good breaks usually come to those alert enough to take them. I always try to build up a big end at least once dur- ing a match, but this is difficult when two good teams are playing one an- other. When they are hit- ting accurately, it is almost impossible. In a tight game, however, you need only one big end to win. One definite point in try- ing to build a big end is that you have to play it wide open. In this case you should guard only with your last rock or when there is a pocket for the opposition to draw to. When attempting to build up an end I try to have my players draw to the 12 -foot circle on both sides as far apart as possible. It is im- portant to keep your rocks in front of the tee line so that the opposition cannot play a freeze for either first or second shot. Should the opponents miss on a takeout attempt you should draw one to the centre of the rings and directly in a horizontal line with the others. In this way you can prevent the opponents from making a double kill. Most important in build- ing an end is to avoid bunching your stones, be- cause when you get too many stones together the opposition will have a good chance to draw into the bunch where it may be im- possible for you to get them out. By way of an example let's say you are lying first, second and third shots with the opposition lying fourth. You also have fifth, sixth, and seventh, and playing the last rock of the end. You can go for the seven end, but it is most danger- ous because the opponent's stone is in a position that if you hit it wrong you could wind up giving the opponent a shot. RISKING LOSS Never attempt to be greedy if the price is going to prove too high. It would be much better to try and draw for a fourth shot, rather than lose the three you already have. There is a time when it would be right to gamble in such a situation. If the opponent's rock is in the back rings and reasonably open, or if you are down six or eight shots and time is running out, it may then be necessary to take the chance. If the possibility of a perfect eight end was pre- sented in such a case few curlers could resist the temptation to gamble for the works and I wouldn't blame them. BELGRAVE CUBS 1st Belgrave Cub Pack met in the Community Centre on Tuesday evening with 18 Cubs and four leaders present. The meeting was opened by Akela with the Grand Howl f. ''owed by the Lord's prayer in unison. For inspection the Red Six with Jimmy Beecroft as sixer got the most points and their pennant on the totem pole. Re- lays and games were played. A chapter from Rhama and the Crocodile was read by Bag- herra. Inspection was in the form of a game that taught a lesson. The meeting closed with taps to meet again on Tuesday, February 18. 0--0--0 PACK "A" Due to the lack of snow the toboggan party was cancelled and a regular meeting was held at rhe Scout House. There were twenty-one Cubs and two lead- ers present. The meeting opened with the Grand howl and the recit- ing of the Cuh promise. Inspec- tion followed with the Brown Six receiving the most points. Steven Langridge was chosen as the neatest Cuh. A most vigorous game call- ed 'Sweep' was played with much enthusiasm. Asst C. M. Louise Lloyd told a story about "The Cave of the Baboons". It emphasized the virtue of resourcefulness. A play-acting game follow- ed in which one hoy acted out a well known person and the rest had to guess the name, I3oh Shaunessy gave a brief account of a book he had read. This is part of a requirement for the 2nd star. After a rousing sing -song the boys returned to their sixes. Ken Aitcheson was presented with two proficiency badges. One was for Pet Keeper and the other for Guide. goodixglit activities The Grand Howl was per- formed and the Cub Law re- peated. The meeting ended with Taps and the Cub Prayer.

Some of the home grown harmony was not at all hard to take and I am sure this part of the meeting is gaining in popularity. It is de- signed to clear the throat and relieve tension so more worth is gained from regular practice. Russ Zurlrigg again was in the chair and officially opened the meeting, after which serious rehearsal was begun with Directors Bill and liap stressing a lot of new factors which will dress up our songs. It is very important to get that first chord of every song "dead" ac- curate. If it is at all shaky, it may take up to four bars for the 'chorus to be in tune (sometimes longer). This is the primary FISH TALES Canada is the leading ex- porter of fishery products to the United States. On the other hand, she is also the hest eus- tomer for United States fishery products and buys over one- fifth of all U.S. fishery e\ports. This isn't as senseless as it seems though, for frozen and canned shrimp products art. the principal U.S. products enter- ing the country, while Canada exports mainly salmon, lobster, freshwater fish and fish steal. purpose in taking our time while tuning up. You can't have harmony unless you are in tune. This is true not only in music, but of life in general. Routine matters were dis- cussed during the business per- iod some of which were shelv- ed for the board of directors. The executive is meeting later this week to try to solve some of our problems. Jim Currie suggested a show be presented by the chorus possibly late or early in rhe fall. This is a good way to show our"product" and at the sante time add to tilt treasury. Costumes for the chorus are nor too far away and they are going to do away with the lumps in the mattress. Coffee and do -nuts were enjoyed in the staff canteen after practice. A vote of thanks to Arnold, liill and Paul (co -hosts). The serenading from a hack table seemed to he appreciated by all as the "quartette" was getting bigger in ratio to the coffee con- sumed. A delightful in ening, all things considered. Next week we'll go over the bass section. The "Bargain Basement cloys" are finding out that their part is not the mel- ody an octave lower, and is espec tally. hard in llarhership I harmony. We are again for- tunate here as our I1.B.11. arc really solid and don't mind hard wore.. Be sing you next week.
