Ernie Richardson demonstrates the position from which he so effectively started his swing in winning the great majority of the 150 games he curled last winter. His right arm is stretched for- ward comfortably to grasp the handle of the stone and from that position he starts to pull the stone back. Unlike too many curlers who seem to make a big production out of jerking the stone back and forth before go- ing into action or reachingjo far forward toward the skips broom that the right knee goes down to the ice. Ernie uses none of these waste motions which more ofter than not cause the arc of the backswing to get off the cor- rect line. With most of the weight of the body on the right foot the Re- gina skip starts to pull his stone towards him and simultaneously his knees slowly begin to traight- en‘out and elevate the body. At the same time the left arm hold- Now that; we have spent some considerable time getting set in the hack and lining up the rock with the Skip's broom, let‘s not spoil it all with a lot of unnec- essary waggles and superfhwus arm-stretching before the back- swing.

PERSONAL CHEQUING ACCOUNT Established 1878 126 Yonge St. N., Richmond Hill ing the broom synchronizes its motion with the action of the right arm. As the rock leaves the ice with its full weight pulling down. the left arm moves up and sideways as a counter bal- ance. Similarly, the left foot and leg begin to move sideways and back to aid in body balance. While this movement is taking place the right leg with the foot firmly imbedded in the hack acts as the pedestal supporting almost the entire weight of the body and the 40-pound granite. The whole motion is slow, smooth and unhurried with the stone hang- ing from the fingers of the right hand like a pail of sand swing- ing at the end of a rope. A champion skip of Ernie Ri- chardson’s calibre keeps his eyes on the broom during the entire backswing. The merest deflection of the eyes disturbs the concen- tration and upsets the rhythm. Breathing is important too. At the start of the swing begin breathing in slowly until your lungs are full then hold it until the forward swing is completed. This not only helps coordination but may also explain why your skip can bellow so loudly when the rock leaves your hand. Evi- Hently it helps his concentration during your backswing if he takes a dep breath too. NEXT: How High the Backswing.
