golf is unique in that it has is obsessive quality more i than most games it is what made me wonder when i finally decide to give it up whether i the game had beaten me or vice versa one thing i do i know a good golfer has my ep admiration good curlers 00 too but i suspect its a little easier i to become a reasonably good curler and the process of trying is certainly more fun at least i found it so when i gave golf i thought that all 1 sports were probably not my cup of tea so t was a nice sur- i prise to find i enjoyed curling i right from the first time it tried it and the courts were in use from morning till night i think tennis is thf best cents particularly it gives them everything fast action both mental and physical and lots of sociability we had tournaments with acton milton brampton tc occasionally toronto clubs it was exciting and fun to meet kids from other towns and when we werent planning a tournament of some kind wed be arranging a corn roast hike or dance we were never bored and by dint of all those hours spent on the courts george town developed some pretty fine tennis players i have always felt frustrated that i couldnt interest my own children in tennis for some reason it seems to have dropped from favour with the majority of todays youngsters all i can say is they dont know what theyre missing comlter laid ltwiltbe up to tfils years manor committee to make formal application to the province to build the home coulter the jtormer reeve of last years committee prep background material which should allow the new committee to complete the application besides looking for a site the committee worked on a needs study to determine the number of beds that will be needed and what special facilities will be required we want to make sure we provide enough accommodation to meet future demands coul ter- said i he suggested the new com mittee should meet with the planning departments of both oakville and burlington to dis cuss the sites jad decide which is the best suited for the home future site he said he had heard talk of the county purchasing both sites and holding one for future usebut doubtjr if thiswillbejj done he said naturally both of the best sites are quite expen sive i coulter said he had hoped to have had the applicatiooajor the province completed by last september y various delays held the committee up the decision to locate the

look around and see ifhe same thing happening to other players so that you dont go home and berate yourself too laeverely misery does love com- any you know aside from the skills involv- ed i like being in the fresh old air of the curling rink hen you add to all these likes he fact thai- 1 enjoy the actual elivering of the rock and even sweeping youll rightly spect that curling is my vourite sport curlings summer count- part lawn bowling is rood n too this ummerwaamy at season and i found as 4th curling that even a novice loylt for lo these many years i didnt know what i was mis sing when i didnt play bridge i used to know just enough ab out the game to have to say yes when asked if i played and be lieve me that isnt enough if you want to enjoy the game in stead of feeling trapped and panic stricken when youre dealt a hand that demands more than a simple pass if youre interested in the game lessons can cirumvent the misery of learning the way i did by practice sweat and tears but now ive actually come to the point where i enjoy playing and im glad the game never palls and as long as my memory holds out it is a recreation that will give pleasure and mental stimulation long after more strenuous pursuits become less attractive im still not a dyed-in- thewool bridge addict tho be cause thoughts not directly connected with the game do flick thru my mind when im at the bridge table i amuse myself sometimes with a bit of characteranalysis on the side whle the game is in progress and the idea has struck me that playing bridge together before marriage might be just as good a test of compatability as todays computer tests the game ia unparalleled for showing up personality traits for instance bidding can reveal how good a persons judgment is whether the play er is aggressive timid erratic whether he likes to amble or whether he is k solid depend able type person the actual play of the cards isnt too re vealing as far as personality is concerned but afterwards if the contract happens to have been defeated comes the acid test then is the ttme for part ner to show consideration kindness and general good sportsmanship or alas the opposite i concentration is the key to success n any game includ ing and perhaps most of all bridge i readily admit that while i allow my thoughts to meander in the above fashion im not too well on the way to becoming an expert but im not at alt sure i want to become one even if i could id be afraid the game might take ov er my life too inuch and that is that i would guard against after all as gertrude steta 8l6aorgea and
