an unbeatable 15-5 lead with an end to
spare. Meg Horrell, Henry Matthews,
Joan Boddy & Ken Horrell (Withiel)
started well against Edward Wakeley,
Sandra Worton, John Worton & Arthur Back row Nicholas Truscott, Derek Elliot
Tubb (Ladock) establishing a 5-0 lead Front row Elise Daniell Peter Hore
after 3 ends.
Ladock responded levelling the score at 6-6 going into a last end which would be decided
on the last wood of the game with Ken Horrell snatching the win 7-6. Two runs of three succes-
sive scoring ends saw Melba Kitt, Margaret Goodwin, Graham Reeves & Darren Woolner
(Saltash) defeat Lynne Davey (Liskeard), Sheila Hodge (Liskeard), Martin Boraston (Dobwalls)
& Gary Davey (Liskeard) 11-7.
The final game of the round saw Elise Daniell (Holmans), Derek Elliott (Holmans), Nicholas
Truscott (Luxulyan) & Peter Hore (Holmans) start well with a 4 on the opening end against Mike
Richards, Tom Lapworth, Martin Williams & Keith Williams (Penlee).
Penlee levelled the score after 3 ends before three successive ends for Hore opened up
an 11-4 lead after 6 ends. Penlee scored a single on the seventh end before a 4 on the 8th end
for Hore put the game out of Penlee's reach 15-5.
In the semi-finals Nicholls and Horrell were all square at 3-3 after 4 ends before 4 succes-
sive scoring ends for Nicholls established an almost unassailable lead. Horrell scored a conso-
lation shot on the final end to leave the final score 10-4 to Nicholls. In the other game a score
of 6 on the first end for Hore allowed his team to control the game defeating Woolner 14-4 with
an end to spare.
Expectations of a close final were soon dispelled as Hore moved into an 8-1 lead after 4
ends. Single scores for Nicholls on the next two ends did little to ease the pressure and scores
of 3 and 4 on the seventh and eighth ends took Hore into an unassailable 15-3 lead to claim the
title.
