CURLING CLUB

The members of the Cassiar Curling Club have put in
another few weeks of good curling. There have been two
draws since Christmas, the first one ending the first
week in February. There were twenty-one teams partici-
pating, divided into three groups. The play-off was a
hard battle which was finally won by the John Forbes

rink. The Gary Begon rink was second and the Bruce Roe
rink was third.

The second draw of 1974, filling up February, also
had twenty-one teams on the go, with three groups once -
again. The Gary Begon rink was the winner this time,
with the Carol Niedermayer rink second and the Gerry
Bermel rink third.

On the weekend of February 23-24 was the Ladies
Bonspiel and Social. The ladies thoroughly enjoyed
themselves and give special thanks to that marvelous
short-order cook, Ed Thirlwell, for the great snacks
all day Saturday. The "'A'' event of the Bonspiel was
won by the Mary Ann Isidoro rink with the Nancy Turner
rink coming second. The winner of the ''B" event was the
Murill Yorke rink with the Mary Tomashewski rink second.

Everyone is looking forward to Cassiar's 20th Annual
Bonspiel on March 14-17. There are 10 out-of-town
teams signed up to date so it will be a good chance for
local teams to meet some different competition.

Has everyone noticed the changes in the club lounge?
We have 90 square feet of extra floor space, a real
boon during our socials. And our bar looks very elegant
with the wood-panelled trim. Thanks from us all to
Ed Michael.

WHO SPIKED MY COKE?

Three rinks from Cassiar, skipped by Al Taylor,

ful and came home with prizes: rifles, cassette tape
recorders and electric clocks. Begon's rink came first
in the "A'' event; Taylor's was second in the "'C" and
Bermel's was fourth in the ''C''. The hospitality in
Watson Lake was really great!
