Vikings Gary Peters and Rob Cox put rocks into the house on many occasions only to see them replaced by the rocks of Foster • and Hawkins. The final score of 13 to 2 is very misleading as almogiall the ends were hard fought. Randy Watson's ex- cellent play led the financial wizards of Victoria and Grey to their third victory in a row as they overcame a determined effort by the Champion Sales Office to record a 12 to 5 final score. The results of this contest were in doubt until the seventh end when five shots by Pete Crew, Eleanor Erskine and Bruce Erskine allowed the V&G four- some 4 to score a big four The three front runners of the Indistrial League maintained their grip on first place as they all posted impressive vic- tories last Thursday night..

To the inex- perienced curler, un- familiar with Bill's unusual style, the big shot often looked like a missed shot but the results are what counts and the results in this case was an exciting game of curling. Sitting in the lounge before the game in their matching team sweaters, the A.M. & G Hospital Team No. 1 looked like curlers. Fortunately, on the ice they also perform well as they demon- strated once again this week by humbling(?) a defiant Champion Girls unit 15 to 2. Despite the score, Sylvia Bolan and Marg DeBolt had out- standing nights but each of their fineshots were matched or 'Surpassed by the efforts of Dennis Miskie and Ron Klages. Klages was particularly outstanding as he made perfect draws or difficult chips with equal ease. GQDERICH SNA, THURSDAY, DECAll.HER , 1978.Gg 17 • Ron will be temporarily out of action for the next few weeks to undergo testing at Westminster '- Hospital in London. All of the Industrial League wish Ron a quick return to action. Don Hullah and Phil Paquette got the Huron Health Unit back on the winning track as they helped to defeat the Elementary Teachers 13 to 2. Local 1863 also recorded their second victory of the season as they out -dueled the Victoria Teachers 6 to 2. In this well played con- test, Teacher Skip Ron Ritchie executed some extremely difficult shots to keep the pressure on his counterpart Jack Kellough. There was never more than one point scored each end which indicates fine performances from the front three of both, squads. Assessment Office cornerstone Sue Ritchie also had a fine night but it too was in a losing effort as her team went down to def eat° tO A StrPAg.,LegiPn foursome. To EddY; VIC Powell and Larry Sturdy all performed admirably in the battle against Jim Bents powerful Assessment foursome. The match was a close one throughout and the final score of 8 to 4 hides the important statistic of ends taken. There are some „nights when nothing goes right. Jim Bolan and his Champion Office team experienced such a night as they dropped a 20 to 1 decision to the GDCI Teachers. Two four enders in the first two ends put the Champion team on the comeback trail quickly but expert curling by Donna Doidge and Doug Bundy plus an unexplainable amount of bad luck kept the Bolan foursome scrambling just to get on the scoreboard. The A.M. & G. Hospital No. 2 team took to the ice determined to break their early season losing streak. Their opponents, the Mitchelmore Family were equally determined not to begin a losing acDonald loses rare match The Goderich Chess Club enjoyed it's best turnout this year with 20 members being present last week. After last weeks action, no player maintains a perfect record. However, Charlie Cook won two games to remain un- defeated in 10 games! Charlie's record is only marred by his one draw. Charlie also leads the most improved division as he was only at .443 this time last year! He will have quite a battle on his hands to hold' on to first place as three members are right behind him with per- centages over .900!

In the last two' seasons Charlie had not lost a 1,..egular season game (although he had to 'play six games to win the v• play-offs last year with a 4-2 record). Jim Kingsley achieved a seven year goal by finally coming up with a win against Charlie MacDonald. Charlie's record is still a very impreSsive 12-1, good for a second place tie. Tied with Charllie for second is Louis Stadelmann who is off to an extremely good start: Steve Harding is also holding on to a win - loss percentage of better than 90 percent winning two games to move into fourth place. In level 2 play, frustration reigned supreme as Steve Hamrnill, who was in a bit of a slump, got his game' together and after a three hour ,battle came out victorious against a Level 1 player! Then came the shock! It was' discovered that the game had been played With the board reversed! (In Chess a Dark square must be in the left hand corner) The board being reversed ' caused the game to be nullified and Steve's three hours of concentration were for nought.
