In the final contest between Goderich and Rockcliffe, over 300 spectators were treated to.a head -stopping display of cool draws, sharp hits and delicate freezes. Nearly all of the onlookers were cheering for Scott and the boys, with a large con- tingent of Goderich parents and friends leading the applause and waving the Port of Goderich flag at every opportunity. The two teams traded points every end, but a miss on a wide-open take-out by the Rockcliffe skip on the ninth end put Collins two ahead coming home. "It looked pretty sate at the time," said Doug Bundy, their coach who had ac- companied the team to Barrie "But some cold draws by the Rockcliffe team soon had the house cluttered with rocks from both. sides." "Skip Collins came through with his final stone, however, and took out both Roekeliffe stones and left his own shot to clinch the victory. It was a triumph for the Goderich team anda credit to their curling ability and coolness under fire!" . "I'm very proud of these young gen- dollen," said Bundy. "They were Coil- tinually congratulated on their good sportsmanship throughout the tournanittit 'and the fact that two of the games theylost were close 54 decisions meant that they were close to being second best in the province!" Providing that„aiternatd arrangetnents can be made for school eatains, the boys' nett competition will bethe WOSSA 'finals in Glencoe on March 10, in which the rink will re resent WO as the Ruroi Perth thmriplons.
