Ruth Mabbett won her fiourth trophy in four weeks as her rink of Donna Stephenson, June Bush and Marj Sahr won the ladies’ open at Tam Heather last Friday. Doris Vance and her rink of Florie Smith, Blanche Reid and Keitha Matheson tare sporting very attractive floral pins which are emblematic of runners-up to the SOLCA senior provincial playdowns at the Hamilton ;Thistle Club. This is the first ‘Richmond Hill rink to reach the final game in this 16-rink play- down. Doris chalked up eight consecutive wins to qualify for the final which she lost to Aline Evans from Donalds who were winners of the E. M. Woolley seniors’ trophy. As the men’s competitive cur- ling drew to a close, Floyd Per- kins. Harold Louden and Ralph Harley emerged as winners. In the third schedule of the skip entry Dalt Hicks won the first division, Jack Shropshire the second. Don Richard, third and Gords Tonner won the fourth division. Some highlights were -- Mary Barrow winning a prize; Murray Meeres’ quadruple takeout; Bill Kirkpatrick winning his Friday game with his harem of Shirley Hicks, Audrey Graydon and Judy Wales; Frank Ellison being 12 down coming home; Bob Weiss’ superb curling; Warren Davey’s Saturday night buffet and Jerry and Marj Sahr’s hos- pitath Saturday evening.

Marion did a fine job of skipping assisted by Gloria Cro- tin, Jane Gillespie and Hazel Olynec. Wednesday April 8 was the date for the closing dinner for the business girls section. Held at the club with cocktails at 7 pm and dinner at 8 pm brought our girls out in their most glamorous array of pant suits, mini skirts and just plain ordinary goâ€"toâ€"business clothes. After dinner the prizes were presented to the various win- ning teams of the last two sche- idules. A special thank you goes to Bob and Dianne Whittaker for extra favors and to Guy Staples for his excellent art work and advertising. Just thinking up those names in an effort to im- prove on Murray Meeres’ rather unoriginal selections was a chore. Although he doesn’t show much originality, the prize com- mittee certainly did. ‘ Mr. Bennett and his charming wife attended the dinner, sur- rounded by 45 business girls. We hope they both enjoyed the dinner and the chatter of the lively curlers. Games were played and Muriel Clark, Diane Whittaker and Sadie Lucas did a fine job of planning the even- mg. As most business girls will not see each other until next season we wish all of them a good summer and good curling next year. Just a reminder, the ladies section is holding a card palty on April 22 at 8 pm. Make up your own table of cards and support the ladies untiring ef- forts, it will be appreciated.
