Winnipeg free press tuesday. February 21. 1967 19 Toba schoolboys stage comeback of Day by John Down the winning Point on the Lith flin flon staff Mani a end. Toba was forced to run the apparently the did a Gauntlet monday in round one of great Deai Jorje boys saints the Canadian Schoolboy Curling As they championship. Brian Clapham and his Daniel Mclntyre foursome scored the comeback Triumph of the Day in the morning round by defeating Saskatchewan s Ron Jacques 9-8 in an extra end. Jacques and company advantage of a shaky Start by the to bans to grab a 6-2 Lead in five ends but the tide changed wrapped up the Day with a resounding 15-3 rout of new Brunswick to join British Columbia Alberta and Nova Scotia in the undefeated Circle. Today face Nova Scotia and Ontario and wednesday they la play Quebec and took Prince Edward Island. The rink won t receive a Bye until the final draw Friday afternoon. Oddly enough Manitoba last and Clapham wound up putting Salt on the Victory by stealing year set some sort of Points record when George Wilson of Charleswood Defeated Saskatchewan 22-2. The sixth end was definitely the turning Point in the Manitoba Saskatchewan encounter second Bill Alderton and third Arnie Tiefenbach missed takeout shots Bat because the Dannies were Only regaining their form Jacques faced just two Toba rocks when he went to the Hack. As Luck would have it Jacques missed with his first Stone but Brian failed to draw to the House. Jacques however came up with a takeout to lie shot and Brian followed the same route to count two and close the Gap to 6-4. The wheat province lads Naa Little Success with takeouts on the seventh end As Jacques on forced to draw to the four foot to Cut Clapham out of three but was Short and gave up one. Brian s front end brother Ken at third Jim Sproule and Lead Tom will became even sharper on the eight end and again forced Jacques to draw to the shot Stone for a single. Saskatchewan managed a steal on the ninth when Brian and rolled out of the House with a takeout attempt. Thus things looked gloomy for the Dannies who trailed 8-5 at this As Luck would have it two misses by the Saskatchewan front end allowed Clapham to get two rocks on opposite sides of the House and when Jacques missed a last takeout Brian Only had to draw inside the 12 foot for a triple. After the front two members of each rink had left the Hack on the Lith there were two rocks at the front House. Tiefenbach tried the same route and wrecked on a guard. Brian then went to a draw on the swing Side of the ice and to the Delight of Many fans Drew by an opponents Stone of the Ken Sam started the Bau but rolling with his last shot when he Drew through a Tricky port and settled at the Back of the Brian s Rock perfectly guarded. Just to make sure Jacques could t sneak into the House. Brian put his last Rock out front and when Jacques missed the Broom by two feet on an attempted raise takeout the Toba boys let out a thunderous Loose handles against. New Brunswick Clapham had Little difficulty As he opened with a triple added four in the fifth end and led 14-2 with a triple in the eighth. Mayor Jack Freedman of fun four still unbeaten a Little too Good after watching Bruce Hudson Pilot his Strathcona rink to the Manitoba Curling championship last Friday night and saturday afternoon there is no doubt in our mind that the was tigers were worthy winners and just a Little too Good for Garry Ross and his Carman foursome. There was t much Between the two rinks when it came to shoemaking. The Carman boys had All the answers Here particularly the Brilliant Chip hand whom we consider the outstanding curler in the playoff. Where the great difference Lay was in the steadiness of the Strathcona. Any time they got into a Little trouble they it took things in their stride. On the other hand you got the impression that the Ross quartet was inclined to panic Little when things weren t going quite right for them. But there is no secret about it the Basic reason Why the Winnipeg rink will carry Manitoba s colors into the National championship is because Bruce Hudson was Superior o Ross As a strategist. Which of course is understandable in View of the fact that Bruce has been playing the game far longer and has been exposed to much tougher Competition Over a longer period than his Youthful Carman counterpart. Difficult to answer How will the Hudson rink do in the Dominion championship that s a difficult question to answer. At Charlottetown in 1964, the Strathcona were unimpressive As they wound up with a 7-3 record. From the first Day of the Competition at Pei the stratus left the impression they did t have what it takes but in their defence it must be said they got All the worst the draw and a bad break in the opening game against Saskatchewan they Drew the poorest Sheet in the Arena Hudson was t Able to adjust his game to the unbelievable ice conditions whereas Ernie Richardson was. That was it. Dick Wright has replaced Harvey Mazinke who was Man Lor Hudson at Charlottetown. We would say there is not a great Deal of difference in the calibre of Curling of c Ken Little and Harry Martel Are probably not that mechanically Over 1964, but the fact that improved they be been to the Brier before is going to help them a teat Deal. Most rinks competing in the big classic Lor the first time Are somewhat starry eyed with the result that by the time they get Down to Earth its too late to get Back into Ball game. 1 returning with the same rink that he had a year ago Champion Ron the Northcott of Alberta undoubtedly be favored at Ottawa. These Calgary shot Smiths Are a silk smooth outfit and Ian make More shots than most rinks. However when on top it is difficult to stay there and you can expect most rinks to play their Best games against the albertan Manitoba working on Confidence generated from a dra Matic first round comeback trounced new Brunswick 15-3 in the second round of the Cana Dian Schoolboy Curling championship monday night.
