Steve Geer, also of Port Perry High was vice skip, and Dorothy Fitze and Vicky Fairman of R.H. Cornish Public School were lead and second. ' Just under 50 young people from the high school, Cornish, and Cartwright School in Blackstock took part regularly this year in the special curling league designed to not only provide a wider range of interests for the young, but also to start tomorrow's champion curlers. "And let's face it," said R. H. Cornish teacher, and curl- ing club member, Reg Phil- lips, "it'll get people invol- ved in curling, which after all, is in the interest of the club." Although the program is considered school oriented, the schools and school board are not the sponsors. All curling is done on the students' own time, and a token payment of $2.00 to the curling club is made by the students. Teachers like Reg Philips of R. H. Cornish, and Randy Scott of Cartwright, help run the program along with other members of the curling club. two seasonal schedules of five weeks each, plus one 'week set aside for the play- offs and additional time for special instructional ses- 'Come and see our Things Before you do your Thing The program consists of PORT PERRY STAR -- Wednesday, April 16, 1975 -- 21 Student curlers finish season sions for new curlers. Both the teachers and members of the club help with the instruction. Not only can the student play at the club at times of regular school curling, but the token membership allows him to curl at other limes, in regular curling events. So far, the program has had some excellent results, and is producing some top notch curlers. One student, Mr. Philips said, advanced to the playoffs in the regular club men's league. Perhaps one of the sur- prises experienced by the teachers is the manner in which the students get along, particularly the older stu- dent with the young. "There are Grade 13 students here and younger public school kids, and it is surprising how well they get along together. There is no animosity at-all," said Mr. Philips. He also sees the efforts, time, and money spent on the program by the curling club is an example of the com- munity working with the kids. "I think it's a great pro- gram," he said. bbb ed EEE EET TTT TTY YS TA Tr CR NOW Pe] Ww a en 1 Awning & Patio Doors IS THE TIME Insulate and Beautify B ALCAN ALUMINUM Dusome Window Products Your Home with SIDING Phone 985-3572 PR ee er WT AIDA Bi Pn T dn Son oi Se ee oe EE EE EE SS TX NEW INSTALLATIONS REPAIRS -- ALTERATIONS "Service is our business" ---- aa 985.3734 'SHELVING - PLYWOOD - REFRIGERATORS ~~ ALUMINUM & WOOD WINDOWS .
