NINE BASIC SHOTS
KEYS TO CURLING
By KEN WATSON
This week I am turning over
most of my space to diagrams
illustrating the nine basic shots
in the fundamentals of curling
strategy.
The ability to execute these
shots is a fair measure of a
curler's proficiency.
You ea try these shots. -sep-
arately, r if your club wants
to set u a special competition,
it shoal prove a lot of fun as
well as giving everyone a com-
plete work-out.
Our new curlers are missing
what used to be one of the fea-
ture events of bonspieling in
Canada—the Grand Points Com-
petition, which used these nine
shots. This long -forgotten test
of curling skill is one of the
truest measurements of a man's
perfection on the ice.
In the Grand Points Compe-
tition, two adjoining sheets of
ice are marked with circles.
Each curler gets four stones
with the draw, four at striking,
and so on. His first two at-
tempts go down one sheet of
ice and the final two rocks are
thrown back on the adjacent
sheet.
Two points are given for each
stone made, with one point
granted for a partial shot. Thus
with four rocks attempted at
each of the nine basic shots the
possible score is 72 points. A
skip is appointed to stand on
the tee but gives the player
the ice requested only. No
sweepers are allowed unless the
competitor wants to race after
his stones and sweep them him-
self.
the Easy, you think? Well, in
years that the Grand
Points Competition was the ma-
jor event in the Winnipeg Bon -
spiel, only two players scored
as many as 52 points!
In the diagram below, the
heavy -bordered rocks indicate
placed stones, while the light -
bordered rocks are played
stones.
Sell Licenses
On January 2
Transport Minister Rowntree
announced this week that the
new •.1962 Drivers' Licenses and
Motor Vehicle Permits would
go on sale at all issuing offices
on Tuesday, Jan. 2, 1962. Issuer
in Seaforth is Frank C. J. Sills.
Mr. Rowntree added a word
of warning that again in 1962
there would be no extension of
the deadline for the purchase
of new license plates. This com-
ing year, he said, the deadline
would be Wednesday, March
14, and that after that date all
motor vehicles must carry 1962
plates.

HURON FEDERATION NEWS
By CARL HEMINGWAY
Now that Christmas is over,
I sincerely hope it was a happy
one for all of you, and I take
this opportunity to wish you a
Happy New Year! The future
for farmers than it has been for
the past several years. How-
ever, there seems to be a ser-
ious threat of domination by
big corporations in the farming
industry. This threat will be-
come a reality if farmers fail
to co-operate and unite their
strength. United, farmers can
compete quite nicely with "big
business"; divided, they are "sit-
ting ducks" and will be treated
accordingly.
At a recent meeting of the
Co-op Insurance it was encour-
aging to find that accident loss-
es are comparatively low this
year. This, of course, means
savings for the policyholders,
but we also hope that it means
that people are driving 'miire
carefully. Recently, in driving
in fog and early darkness, I
have found that a large number
of motorists are driving with
only parking lights. I would
like to remind these people that
parking lights are not legal
lighting for driving, and in case
of accident this practice could
be very costly.
On December 18 the Educa-
tion Committee of the Federa-
tion and Huron County gradu-
ates of the Ontario Leadership
Forum met to finalize the topics
for a second County Leadership
Forum to be held the last week
of January. Notices will be go-
ing out to the township federa-
tions, the co-operatives, com-

modity groups and other inter-
ested organizations immediate-
ly, so that delegates may be ap-
pointed.
At the end of last year's
course those attending were
quite enthusiastic and now that
a year has passed they are just
a little surprised to find that
the training was even more use-
ful than they had anticipated.
We are a little more limited as
to numbers this year, and we
hope that we can have the
names of the delegates just as
soon as possible.
A couple of indications of
the problems facing farm peo-
ple during the next year ap-
peared in the last two days.
The first is in the broiler grow-
ers' report, which, by request,
published the price quotation
for two broiler processors, one
at 14c, plus contract premium,
and the other at a straight
1612c. This is an increase of
3 or 4c above the last quota-
tions and at a time when sales
are not supposed to be good,
and in spite of an increase in
the week's marketing of almost
40,000 birds. No wonder that
the association is asking the
growers to report the prices for
which they have actually sold
their broilers. With practically
no price quotations from pro-
cessors, it is difficult for the
organization to obtain the in-
formation necessary to give
some leadership to the industry.
The second item of interest
was an indication in the press
that canning vegetable and fruit
growers are considering the for-
mation of unions. I wonder if it
would be better and perhaps
easier to organize co-operative
processing plants of their own.

(By FAIR.BAtRN)
This is not the time of year
for birds to be singing, but our
e friends close to Queen's
Park halm chirped along the
message that tilt. Ontario Broil-
er Growers' Association recent-
ly had representatives talking
to the Farm Products Market-
ing Board. It's safe to assume
they might have been trying to
see whether the atmosphere is
favorable toward a marketing
plan for broilers—the poultry
producers are going ahead with
an egg marketing plan.
However, there are some dif-
ferences in the situations fac-
ing these two groups—prices
are not too good in either, but
there any marked similarity
ends. The broiler business was
one of the first to feel the ef-
fects of vertical integration so
that today the majority of the
broiler production in this prov-
ince is in the hands of a very
few people. There may be a
few farmers still producing
broilers on their own, but their
total production accounts for
only a small percentage of the
overall. And that overall is
much greater than current de-
mand which is the main reason
for present disastrous prices.
Apparently they are so disas-
trous that some large corpora-
tions --the ones who started this
vertical integration—are now
looking toward the Farm Pro-
ducts Marketing Act to save
them.
This poses a question: Is the
Farm Products Marketing Act
designed to serve the interests
of our farmers (the real prim-
ary producers) or big corpora-
tions? These corporations might
be feed companies, processing
companies, equipment manu-
facturers, or ever hatcheries. It
also ..prompts one to wonder
whether vertical integration
might achieve its own down-
fall if left alone. However, we
wouldn't suggest that anyone
take that for granted. We have
always noted the big corpora-
tions can look after themselves
—that's how they got big.
That is not to insinuate we
feel there's anything wrong
with big corporations but we do
feel that farmers should look at
facts. In order to compete in
today's world, farmers have to
be big—both individually and
collectively. Individually to re-
duce production costs to a min-
imum and collectively in order
to retain their bargaining posi-
tion in the market place. The
latter can be achieved through
co-operative action if enough
people can be convinced that
such voluntary action is requir-
ed or by compulsory marketing
plans where legislation is avail-
able—which it is in Ontario.
Unfortunately, experience has
shown that voluntary action will
not always work since a few
individuals can usually upset
the market for any single com-
modity if they are outside the
marketing group.
Marketing plans don't always
work either, but many have
been highly successful when
they have been properly set up,
properly organized and effici-
ently managed. However, we
wonder whether a marketing
plan for farm products should
be used to control some of the
unfortunate effects of vertical
integration — unfortunate for
