only recently that this hoary -

The practice of segregation
persisted after curling came'
to Canada. A few years back,
wheel the Royal Montreal Club
celebrated 150 years of ex-
istence as the oldest club of
its kind in North America, the
fair sex was allowed the sec-
ond floor gallery and mem-
bers' room for the first time.
Credit for the advent of
mixed curling must go to the
new curling clubs that have
mushroomed in the Land of
the Maple Leaf since the last
war,
When shares were sold on a
f amity participation basis,
Mother was enjoined to come
to the club with Dad on Satur-
day evenings •for a dinner
party and a few convivial ends
of curling.
Of' course, Mom loved the
outing and on the following
Monday wives kept the tele-
phone wires red hot recap-
turing the experiences of the
weekend with each other.
GAME CHANGING
These nebulous beginnings
flamed into weekend mixed
bonspiels—mnst of which were
invitational because of lack of
ice and time. But they are now
so popular in the Eastern
townships that the entire curie
ins complexion of curling is
undergoing a radical change.
In Western Canada most of
,the old established' clubs still
hang out the Men Only and
Women Only signs on their
bonspiel doors. But in many
of the newer and more extray•
agent premises where the so-
cial nature of curling is given
emphasis, the barriers .are
cruMbling.

sured by their curling wives,

TODAY'S CURLING TIP
•
If you are having broom
trouble here is another check
point. Take a look at the posi•
tion of your stone before you
start your backswing. Move
the rock a fraction to the left
to correct wide out-turris or to
the right to correct narrow
out -turns. Do this 'conversely
to correct wide or narrow
shots.
