Looks as if our work is cut out for us if we ever hope to catch up to those Lions. They have certainly roared their way through the season. Isabel seem- ed to be having a little trouble holding on to her bowls. It's OK Isabel, we all have those nights., The spares who receive our thanks for this night's work are Helen Casemore, Gary Temple- man, Bill Johnston and Walter Brown. High single for the ladies went to Helen Casemore with 291 and also the high triple with 706. The Cougars thank you especially for those two extra points you chalked up for us, Helen. I see Jim Bain took my hint of a few weeks ago, as he took the high single with 267. Walter Brown took the high tri- ple with 650. Wonder if those side bets had anything to do with that, Walter. Team standings: Lions 98; Seals 90; Wildcats 72; Cougars 71; Tigers 63; Beavers 57. And last, but not least, to Walter Brown, who celebrated a birthday this week, our heart- iest congratulations. 0--0--0 WEDNESDAY NIGHT MIXED LEAGUE Despite the efforts of Ken Saxton, who took the men's high single with 296 and the high triple with 837, the Kats only managed to pick up two points against the Tigers. Ruth Lott, who spared for the Tigers, came up with the ladies' high game of 253 and the high triple of 637. The Kats are still well out in front with 86, followed by the Packers with 72; Tigers 70; Hawks 57; Rovers 53 and the Larks 40. With seven weeks left in the regular season, any one team can still win the trophy. that is if the Kats don't get any il■IIIaiiiiIt uiII.IIIi iiuiii.11l.liiuiiiSIiiiIti.i11UIII•III■I11•IIleiII■IlililIRIIIIIIii LrcEu� SHOWPLACE OF WINGHAM — PHONE 357-1630 THUR.-FRI.

Variety Concert Thurs., Fri., Feb. 18-19, 8:15 p.m. In the school auditorium CURLING CAPSULES By Ernie Richardson The most frequently asked curling question re- garding stance and delivery comes from those players who are extra tall, short, heavy or light. Regardless of your physi- cal makeup, we can honest- ly say that anyone can play a reasonably good game and there is no reason why, through proper study and practice, that tall, short, heavy or light players can't become champions. Since I am about six foot, four inches tall and on the lean side it was not difficult for me to find a comfortable position in the hack and a reasonably well co-ordinat- ed delivery and slide. And, for those who have watched curling by the champions, they will find perfect examples in fellows like Hector Gervais of Ed- monton, the 1961 Brier and World champion skip. Hector stands 6'2" and weighs about 250 pounds, but has the balance and poise of a ballet dancer, plus a long, smooth slide that is amazing for a man his size. In his backswing, Gervais doesn't come to an erect po- sition and doesn't take the stone very high off the ice. This gives him better ba- lance as he starts his slide from a slightly crouched po- sition. There are many fine cur- lers, some of them either extremely tall or extra hea- vy who deliver the stone from a crouched position and do not leave the hack. Their right foot remains in the hack (or the left for left- handed players) throughout the delivery. Many slide the stone for- ward, then draw it back al- most to the hack and slide it forward again without leav- ing the hack. It is surpris- ing how accurate some of these players are in both brooming and weight, as they follow through with the arm only. Players delivering the stone from the hack and with little or no backswing THE "GIBSON TRIBE' won the prize for the largest family at Fordwich on Satur- day. Mrs. Gibson is with daughters Gwen, Linda and Gail, as Ben, to come from they wait for father, the dressing room. —Photo by Cantelon. become quite adept at judg- ment of weight from a draw game, but generally find it difficult to play heavy take- outs. However, a capable skip can judge his play so as to get the best out of such players. Women who are nervous of sliding and find it diffi- cult to balance can play right from the hack with only a slight backswing. For the small, light woman who weighs little more than twice that of a curling stone, the key is timing and balance. This is also true for the small, light man. The best advice we can give in answer to the ques- tions is to watch other play- ers of similar stature to your own and you will find a variety of deliveries, one of which you could adopt. Experiment with these styles until you find one that gives you confidence in making a good shot. If expert instruction is available, however, have the instructor suggest the stance and delivery most suited to you. As in golf, ex- pert advice is the best means of learning the right way before bad habits de- velop. A consistent and efficient delivery, regardless of style is essential to becoming a consistently good curler. A speeding motorist lost control of his car and ran it in- to a telephone pole. When he came to his senses he was on the ground clutching telephone wires. " Thank goodness, " he murmured. "Harp strings." • IS A PLEASURE WHEN THE CAR 15 RUNNING SMOOTH It's no fun getting around in a car that sounds like it may quit on you at any time. It's un- necessary, too.
