It happens to the best of skiers. An important rule to follow is: relax and don't 'panic. Becoming stiff or panicking can result in injury. Cross country falls rarely result in severe injuries as snow cover can be a' great cushion. Once in the snow, take off your poles, place them side by side, and use them as props to push yourself out. Place one hand just above the baskets and the other hand part way up the shafts. Hand climb the shafts until you're up. When your feet are twisted on your skis or your skis are crossed or entangled, release yourself from your bindings, then use your poles to get out of the snow. Put your skis back on once you're standing. After falling on hills, position yourself to lean into the hill before pushing- yourself up with poles. By practicing this technique a few times before skiing, either at home or on the trail, you'll accustom yourself to the procedure. Ski Walking: Used on the flats and on gradual uphills, ski walking is the. most elementary form of cross country ski technique. Arms and legs move as if you're walking, except that you glide a few feet with each step you take. By bending slightly at the knees and keeping your weight over the centre of gravity, you can ski walk up gradual hills. Changing Direction: Place your skis parallel to each ,other on a flat surface. Your right 'pole. should stick in the snow behind your left ski's tail, with left pole behind the left' ski's tip. With body weight supported by the left ski and by both poles, rotate the weightless right ski 180 degrees so that it is parallel to the left ski but pointed in the opposite direction. Now, by placing your body-weight on the right ski and right pole, bring the left ski and pole around parallel to the right ski and pole. By reversing this process you can turn the other way. If on a hill, stand in a stationary position across the slope. Place your poles above the uphill ski and follow the same procedure as on theflats. Step Climb: w Step climbing is the simplest of uphill cross country ski movements. Alpine skiers use it a great deal. Place your skis parallel to each other and stand across the slope. With your weight on the downhill pole and ski, raise your uphill ski and pole. Depending upon the slope, the ski and pole may be raised six inches to a foot or more. Then, by weighting the uphill ski and pole, lift up the downhill pole and ski. Repeat this process until you've reached the top. By reversing the procedure, you can step downhill should the degree of slope be too difficult to negotiate by other techniques.

The winning streak of , Seaforth's British Con- sols entry came to an end on Sunday at Allenford when they were defeated in two straight games by Jim Waite of St. Thomas and Wayne Gretski of Guelph. However,. skip Gerry Walter and his team of Bob Wilson, Don Tremeer and Bob Jar- muth should be congratulated on their fine curling and, no doubt, will be back for another try next year.
