(staff photo) 4 0 d BY NANCY MACKINr ON The big news in local curling this past week was the victory of two rinks from Goderich in the Division 13 playdowns of the Silver Tankard Competition in Meaford on March 20, 1977. The rinks of Cam Bogie with Ron Klages, Jack MacKinnon and Denis Lebrun combined with Tom Jasper's rink- of Don Tremeer, Jamieson Ribey and Bill Finlayson defeated two rinks from Wiarton 16-12. These curlers as winners of Division. 13 will meet the Divisional winners from Zones 19, 15, and 16 to determine the regional representatives in the Provincial finals. The regidnal playdowns will be held in Wiarton on March 25, and the finals will be held in Gravenhurst on March 26. ....�., In the regional competition two games are played. If a team wins both their games they advance to the finals. If they lose their first game they enter the Tankard Secondary Competition for the Burden Trophy and if they win their second game they advance to the finals in this competition. Winners of their first game and - losers of their second game are out of both, com- petitions. BONSPIEL NEWS The highlight of the week for the Ladies Curling was the Art's Landscaping Bonspiel held op March, 16, 1977. Everyone participating received a plant from Art's which was appreciated by all ' cprlers. The winner of the first draw was a Goderich rink•of Sylvia Bolan, Jean McGee, Naitcy MacLennan and Marg deBolt. Second place went to the Goderich rink of Phyl Durst with .Lois Vanstone, Bernice Moore and Eleanor Fisher. Third place went to Joan Ritchie's Stratford rink and fourth place went to Win Marshall's Exeter rink. The winner of the second draw and overall winner was Doris Paquette's Goderich rink composed of Eleanor Erskine, Lynn Edward and Kay Duncan. Second place was won by Sheila Taylor's Kincardine rink, third place by LQis Hayter's Seaforth rink and fourth place by Evelyn Seamon's Southampton rink. The draw for an Afghan won by Donna Krueger from Mitchell, Ontario. The Ladies Curling Section would like to thank Art's Landscaping and Nursery for sponsoring this , enjoyable event. A great time was had by all. On March 19, four Goderich Men's rinks travelled to Vanastra to compete in a bonspiel sponsored by Green and Parent. Winner of the first draw Curlers hunt for _playoff positions With only one week left in the regular season just two playoff positions are settled. There is a strong possibility of two three-way ties for the remaining six teams. The Assessment Team increased their first place record to 15 wins and only two losses, both to the DRMCo plant squad, by defeating the Financial Office 9 to 3. Vice - skip Greg Hanson curled expertly for the Assessment men especially in the late going. Jim Be11, Ken Fagan and skip Dennis Lebrun were all sharp and are looking forward to the hunt for trophies in the playoffs. Financial skip, Larry McGrath was not upset by his defeat since his team is in fifth spot an, ._is a good bet to win the "B" Division of the playoffs. At the other end of the scale, the surprising and ever-changing Kinsmen Team upset the second place Victoria and Grey team 10 to 8 in a wild game that produced two five -enders. Kinsmen skip Cloet was outstanding as he led the threesome of Arnie Parker, John Schneiker and Doug Bundy to their third victory of the season. Once again the V & G team showed their class as they fought back from a 7-3 deficit to take a temporary 8- 7 lead and then lose it in the eighth end as the Kinsmen scored three big ones. Brenda Fisher, Mary Weatherby, Hugh Doggett and Steve Williard .made up the V & G team. The powerful DRMCo. Plant team won their seventh game in a row defeating Teacher No. 2 Team 8-9. This excellent string of victories moves the Plant team into a hunt for second place and sets up a classic showdown next week between V & G and DRMCo. Plant for that position with Teacher No. 2 team holding the final playoff spot in the "A" Division. Skip Glen Falkiner had a fine evening for the DRMCo. Plant team but the best man on the ice was Charlie Crawford as he shot and swept his .way to a superb night of curling. Teacher skip Bev Lindsay had a few bad breaks in the early ends and then the precise shooting of the surging DRMCo. men kept their victory streak intact. In a very close match it is usually the skip who makes the difference between vic- tory and defeat. DRMCo. Office skip, Bill Hayward demonstrated this axiom Thursday night as he curled an excellent tactical contest which resulted in an 8-5 extra end victory for his team over the Teacher No. 3 team. In the extra end, teacher vice -skip :.Diane Verhoef made a super take out and freeze shot and it looked like the slumping Teacher No. 3 Bonspiel winners A mixed Knights of Columbus add Shriners bonspiel at Vanastra Curling Club last Saturday was won by the team of five shown above, I to r: Ted.Flemming, Stratford K of C; John Wray, Godefich Masons; Andy Kelly, Stratford K of C; Joe Tobin, Stratford K of C.

Unfortunately for the teachers, Skip Hayward had last shot and he finished off a sensational night with a first rate shot which counted three extra end points and clinched a well deserved triumph for the Office gentlemen. Hayward had excellent support from Dave' Million, Barry Page and Jim Bolan while Del Almeida was outstanding for the unlucky Teacher team.

In the second draw Gerry Walter's , rink of Don Tremeer, Des Cassidy and Don Taylor lost a heart- breaker . in an extra end of their third game which denied them first place and they had to settle for third place. Good fortune did not follow the fourth rink of Jim Hawkins, Ivan Rivett, Tom Moore and Fred Crawford as they failed to place in the prizes. On March 12, a Mixed Team from Goderich com- posed of Len and Eileen Bowman with Tom and Betty Moore won first place in their draw in a Bonspiel in Seaforth.
