Smithers
curling
rink
Monday
afternoon.
Contrary
to
any
reports
that
might
have
been
circulating
in
Prince
rJupert.
the
'spiel
continued
right
through
as
was
agreed
at
the
meeting
Saturday
night.
The
Smithers
club,
headed
by
president
Dirk
Ileggie
and
piloted
by
a
worried
draw
committee
chairman
Carl
Spicer,
made
every
effort
to
keep
the
bonspiel
going
since
there
were
15
visiting
rinks,
only
two
less
than
were
entered
from
Smithers
itself.
At
the
meeting
Dick
said
from
the
start,
"it's
up
to
the
visiters."
to
which
Keg
Collisun
added,
"if
the
ladies
could
play
on
ice
worse
than
this,
which
they
did
last
year,
surely
the
men
can
continue."
This
was
seconded-by
Mitch
Greene
who
said
"keep
going.''
to
which
Ed
earner
suggested
that
the
games
be
shortened
iu
eight
ends.
This
was
done
and
later
that
night
the
bonspiel
got
under
way
again.
It
came
as
a
great
surprise
therefore
tint
the
four
rinks
;ei:ded
before
train
time
to
call
it
quits.
Strange
part
of
it
is
that
though
the
temperature
stayed
fot-twetr.
:!8
and
40
degrees
the
ice
was
no
worse
when
the
bonspiel
ended
than
it
was
Saturday
night.
Tiredest
of
all
the
Rupert
crew
was
undoubtely
"pile
driver"
Art
Kristmanson,
who
threw
a
total
of
64
extra
rocks
during
the
Dibb
rink's
last
four
games
which
they
played
short-handed.
The
Rupert
gang
have
been
inviting
all
the
Smithers
boys
to

and
they
will
have
to
go

to

for
their
hospitality.

of

who
turned
their
ultra-modern
hostelry
into
a
home
away
from
home
for
the
Rupert
boys.
It
didn't
matter
what
time
of
right
the
boys
were
curling
there
was
hot
coffee
ready
for
them
and
in

of
the

on
