CURLING CLUB NEWS Curling was at its best the last two weekends. On January 7th, we started our local Club Playoffs with four teams entering, each team playing six games. Eight of th ese twelve games were won with last rocks. The Olsen rink of T.Olsen, Skip, Ken Johnson, Third, Roddy Thompson, Second.and Ned West, Lead, came out the winners, with five wins and one defeat. They then represented Terrace Bay in the Zone 4 playdowns on January |5th and did a very good job, losing out in the final end when the Red Rock Skip came through with a very fine shot, taking out Olsen's perfect draw on the tee line. At the same time Marathon defeated Nipigon. Terrace Bay was the only team to defeat Marathon's rink. The Olsen team are to be congratulated on their fine curling. The spectator interest was very keen. This is very encouraging for the curlers participating as well as for future interest in Northwestern Curling in Terrace Bay. The Marathon Rink now will represent Zone 4 in British Consol Playdowns in Atikokan starting Jan. 28th. We wish them the Best of Luck!
