ERN I E RICHARDSON'S CURLING CAPSULES WINGHAM MEAT MARKET Jo Sincere wishes for a joyous Holiday to you and Sweeping is of such im- portance in curling, to my way of thinking, that it is necessary to devote one article to what is generally considered the best method of sweeping, Even for the ladies, using the broom in curling is almost entirely different from sweeping the floors or brushing the dust under the rugs. The grip is an important factor in sweeping. If you are right-handed you should place your left hand down the handle and the right hand at the top. The Left hand should be as far down the broom handle as is necessary to give you pro- per leverage and balance. This also depends on your height and the strength of your wrists. There are two lines of thought as to the actual grip on the broom. Some prefer to grip with the left hand palm up, while others use the palm -down grip. I use the palm -down grip. My lead, Wes Richardson, whom I figure is one of the best sweepers in the coun- try, sweeps with the left palm up. It is generally agreed this way is most ef- fective. Of course, for left- handed sweepers the right hand grip is down on the handle and the left hand at the top. FEET FIRM First thing a sweeper should learn is how to sweep without moving the feet, as if you were sweep- ing a stationary stone. This teaches the balance needed as you have to bend over the stone in a crouching position with your knees bent slightly. It takes a lot Cr) DEDICATE GIDEON BIEILES AS A ONTINUING MEMORIA May he tlonatrtI through your , local funeral director ' ..ti, IN qvt U, 6tivv..

A A A of practise to learn to properly sweep a moving stone, The most effective method of sliding with the rock is a sort of rhythmic shuffle which should be perfected in practise. The forward sliding foot of a good sweeper who sweeps close to the stone will sel- dom be ahead of the stone. Sweepers should sweep directly in front of the moving stone and as close to the rock as possible with- out touching it with the broom. A stone hit by a broom is removed from play. Just when to sweep is an important factor. .A stone should be swept starting from the first hog line when the player releases the stone lighter than ex- pected, whether it be a draw or for a takeout. I feel that all draw shots BRIDGE CLUB N. and S.: 1. W. French, Mrs. J. R. Lloyd; 2. H. Craw- ford, Mrs. H. C, Fisher; 3. Mrs. H. Crawford, Mr. W. Wharry. E. and W.:1. C. Hodgins, O. Haseigrove; 2.

SHEDDING The brooms shed straws and if the cup of the stone should pick up a straw or other foreign particle it will shorten and possibly alter the course of the stone. A stone should al- ways be swept when de- livered inside the imagi- nary line of the skip's broom. Good sweeping will help hold it on line. Although smacking the broom on the ice adds colorful sounds to the game it is not necessarily good sweeping. Bending t h e broom straws with pressure and reasonably quick ac- tion is most effective. Curling is like any other sport, the harder you work at it the better you are likely to play.
