LaDTES CURLING fll those ladies who have not yet paid their fees are reminded that they are now over-due and must be paid promptly, Next week should see the beginning of the play-offs for the Hudson's Bay Club Championship Trophy and then we will be ready to get rolling on the Seagram's Bons- PieLs. Last Saturday afternoon in the local rink Herb Crisson, Dick Jones, Joe Campboll and Tom Williscroft were forced to admit that the men are not always better curlers than women after all, when they were handed the short end of the score by Irene Edmond, Fran Caddy, Georgie Balderston and Mae Duquette, Now they are insisting that the age of chivalry is not dead, Nipigon Bonspiel Two local rinks have returnec from Nipigon after attending the annual Bonspiel staged there last weekend, Pegey Welling's rink with igeie Sinkins, inn Latour and Mary Hale didn't let our club down. There were 30 rinks entered and stiff competition, but they came home with first place in the second event, and are now the proud owners of lovely silver trays. Betty Jessop's rink with Dot Shrier, Ev Garvin and Nat Coates were defeated late Saturday night by a Port irthur rink sol am able to give you a bird's eye view of the Welling's rink final game. 'Such tension! Such excitement! The score Was 2-2 the end of the 5th. 1, Then Port £rthur came up with a 4 ender, We would have left then except for the confidence we had in our girls, . True to form, Terrace Bay got a 6 ender (the only 6 ender in the entire bonspisl).. I wish you could have seen that end, Terr- ace Bay played such perfect shots that I'm still hoarse from cheering. Port Arthur was shocked, but not defeated and came up to tie the game on the 12th, The tension was terrific on that extra end, but the way Terrace Bay curled even Ken Wetson couldn't have done better, --- Yes, they won the game and we're proud of them and the entire Club wishes to say "Congrat- ulations on a wonderful victory". 0-0-0 LOST One white zippered Bible in skating rink dressing room, Finder please return to H, Solly, House 273 or Phone 355. 0-0-0.
