Wi Rock and Broom Legion House League Schedules rriostly corn By Bob Mac Arthur This past week has seen a lot of activity at the curling rink There has been a Urge number of new faces seen on the Ice People who had never thrown a rock and others who have curled In other or previously belonged to Acton club when It curled at the Community Centre Andy McKenilo and his committee had experienced curlers on hand every night this past week to help beginners get off on the right foot Some took to the throwing of the rocks as a duck to water Others had a little difficulty coordinating their movements on ice But it Just takes time and practice before a lot wlU be outcurling some of the older hands The was a little heavy at the start of the week but then green Ice always produced heavy curling As the week wore on ft became easier to throw the stones the length of the Ice This coming week should see the tones sailing the length of the Ice With little effort on the part of the thrower First The first bonspiel of the season is scheduled for this Saturday It includes two eight end games a supper and entertainment in the evening Where else can you get so much sport and entertainment for two bucks This bonspiel is for members and potential members of the club and the people learhing to curl have an opportunity to get into swing of things for the coming season by entering this spiel The ladles section got off to a Sod start last Thursday They 38 out to the pot luck supper and evenings entertainment It was claimed that the pot luck supper was hard on those professing to be on a diet After supper two films wore shown with George and Williams running the projector One film was on the instruction of a beginner which some of the older curlers claimed was very instructive even to them The other film was part of the Brier held at Saskatoon Court Whist filled in tho remainder of the evening with Tonl Downs Shirley Hunter and Jordan taking the prizes Open curling All this week la open curling and Instructors will be on hand to offer help to all those who want it It is expected that quite a few of the people curling these opening weeks will like the game well enough to join the club Tip to new curlers and large number of the older members Do not stand in middle of the Ice surface when an opponent or member of your team is about to deliver a rock Give the player a chance to see the skips broom and also give the sweepers an opportunity to pass down the centre of the ice unhindered Tip to members If you see a stranger in the club go up to him or her and shako hta hand Make them feel that they are welcome at club It sure helps to make the new member feel they are welcome Next week will see the start of league curling Some nights and hours are more than filled while others are not quite filled The draw committee under the direction of Ken have an unenviable task on their hands sorting out the teams so that all curlers will be reasonably con tented Give them all the co operation that is possible as there is Just so many teams and positions available for a given draw Dixie Lesion minor hockey houie league lilted below Schedule a or the Aral two at pity ap
