Skips Outstanding

In the Omar-Hall match the skips were outstanding, each in turn coming to the rescue of his own side at enitent moments. Duncan, ងន Hall's # hand man, sent down some Brst class woods. and was better than Bradbury on the run of the play. McNeill and K. M. Omar were about even, but Sykes was A. M Omar's superior,

lead at the 19th.

The 20th end was such a closely con- tested one that more than five-minutes. was taken in order to decide, by various means of measuring, at which almost everybody on the rink took a handt! No decision could the agreed upon. anki calipers were sent for, and this bore out Hall's claim for the shot.

In this connection it interesting to state that before Hall sent down

there with

hia second shot, he Inspected the position and Wis convinced he was lying the shot.

As every danger of removing this If he had attempted to draw the second shot, he ditched" is last wood to make certain of one.

When the skips went down to haw at the last end Omar was lying four. and possibly five. Hall drew the shol with his Arst wood, and when Omar bowled he knocked up one of the oppuri- ton's front woods for the second that Hall blocked effectively with his second and Omar was wide for Hall to win by une shot, detailed scores being:-
