The Goderich Signal-Star, 1979-01-18, Page 14PAGE 14—THE GODERICH SIGNAL•STAR, THURSDAY, JANUARY 18; 1979 Spoi..ts Sifto wan- in CHHL • Sifto Salt edged Burger Bar 5-4 in CHHL play last week to widen the gap between the second and third place teams. - Sifto, in second place with 17 points, widened the gap over Burger Bar, Final shots decide. winners in curling The game of the week on the eighth night of Industrial League Curling belonged to the Huron Health Unit and the. Mitchelmore Family. This excellent , contest ended in a 3-3 tie and forced the participants into a sudden death extra `end "situation which was decided, as it should be, 'on the last shot. Health Unit skip, Jack MacKinnon made the pre; sure shot and his team claimed the well deserved victory. MacKinnon had lots of help throughout the game, however,. as teammates Hullah, Paquette and Ginn performed equally well while Denise and Del Mitchelmore were standouts for the hard luck losers. Ron Klages also ex- perienced the tension of an essential last shot as the .Victoria', Teachers battled Klages and his AM and G Hospital No. 1 team to an exciting conclusion.. Teacher skip Ron Ritchie and his ever improving cohorts had the game tied if Klages missed his last challenge of the night but the cool hospital worker and sometimes patient made the shot with • almost a whole inch to spare. The final score of .7-6 leaves the Hospital team with a 4 and 4 record while the Teacher foursome can take heart in knowing that they almost bought victory drinks again. It was a night for last rock victories as the GDCI Teachers and GDCI Vikings also fought down to the final shot. Excellent performances by students Jim Crawford, Rob Cox and Don Coughlan plus strong leadership from ex - student Dave Cloet had resulted in a comeback for the Vikings and the teams went into the last end tied at five apiece. With one rock remaining, the --students had the winning point hidden in the back of the twelve foot. Teacher skip, George "One shot a game" Sutton having saved his energy and his one shot for the end raised one of his rocks into the four foot and the fortunate educators had a 6-5 victory. Local 1863 and Champion Office engaged in an interhouse contest that saw the union reps overpower the office staff 10-5. Everyone agreed the score would have been higher had it not been for the outstanding curling of , white-collar worker Jim Bolan. Bolan's feats included a double raise take out that resulted in shot rock for the office team but the, combined excellence .of the 1863 foursome, proved too much for Bolan's and company. Charlie Crawford and Tom Profit were particularly sharp for the winners while Paul Have Broom_ Will Travel' Bolan added his, considerable skill to the losing cause ', Victoria and Grey lead Doran Lov-ee learned that ice is stronger than a curling broom as his split in two after indicating his disappointment with one of this shots. Unfor- tunately for curling, broom manufacturers Snowarama set. for Feb. 4 The annual Huron Snowarama cross- country snowmobileo to raise funds for crippled children is all set to get underway on Sunday February 4, and local organizers are hoping for some more snow to keep the 100 kilometre course in top shape. Up until last weekend, there wasn't enough snow on the course to make a go of it, said organizer Joe Gibson of Hullett Township', but the weekend snowfall of nearly 30 centimetres has improved the trail greatly. The Huron Ride for Timmy raised over $27,000 last year when 327 snowmobilers rode the 100 mile course. The route -this year has been altered slightly, and will start at Ray Potter's Farm Equipment Dealership in Clinton, go up to Auburn, across to Blyth; ,and then back to Potter's through Hullett Township. As in other years, riders get pledges for the number of miles they travel, and this year, the minimum pledge was lowered to $15 from last year's $30. Mr. Gibson said that this year, lunch will be available at Clinton and Auburn, but won't be free in order for the com- mittee to cut expenses. Gas can also be • pur- chased at Clinton and Blyth. Local Lions, Kinsmen, _and Snowmobile clubsfor Clinton, Goderich,, Auburn, Colborne, Blyth, St. Helens, Hully Gully will be' manning the checkpoints through -the route, and will be able to give assistance to any snowmobiler. Mr. Gibson said he'd like to see more.snow, but have the Snowarama weekend come up sunny, and crisp, with no wind. S.H.H.L.

Donalda McDonald was once again a standout for the teachers while V and G skip Randy Watson had a strong game as he plotted- his team's strategy. The Assessment Office evened their record with their fourth victory of the season as they dominated the Champion Girls throughout the game to post a 14-2 score. Dennis LeBrun and Jim Bell both curled over 80 percent while Monica Page and Marg de Bolt put up stubborn resistance but to no avail. The Assessment Offices recent hot streak began with the birth of a son for Jim Bell but none of the Champion Girls felt that this was a good way to end their slump. Bill Duncan and Tom Eadie provided the spark needed for a comeback victory as the Goderich Legion overcame an early 3-0 deficit to beat the Champion Sales Office 14-5. Fine shooting by Sales Office skip Bill Hayward and Don Kent got the Sales people off to the quick -start--but-a. -big— fourth end turned the game- -around---for---the- Legion contingent as they made seven of the end's eight shots__ to take the lead which they never returned.
