Marie were the respective boys and girls winners of the Betty Barry Memorial Trophy, for skiers 11 and under, in Outaouais Ski Zone midget A racing at Mont. Ste Marie Saturday afternoon. Upper Ottawa Valley's Andrew German, of Kingsmere, took a busman's holiday Saturday night and got that winning feeling with an old pair of boots.

The 2 1 -year-old German, home for the weekend from the Ontario Ski Team, posted the best combined time in a National Capital Division men's A-B slalom under the lights at Mont Cascades. It was the first night competitive alpine race in this area in some time. Boot problems have troubled German this year and Saturday he reverted to the more comfortable boots that took him to the Ontario championship title last year. German won the first run by a second and was a split second behind NCD team skier Jeff Delaney in the second run. Delaney trailed after the first run by two seconds, despite losing three seconds in an early fall, and burned the second course to place second over-all.

"I've been curling nine years hoping to win this Ontario crest," said Kawaja, holding the pie plate-size provincial emblem crest. At the last two OCA provincial championships, he could only be jealous of other winning rinks. McCarrel was in a similar position, having finished second with an Oakville rink last year.

After regulation play in the eight-team, round-robin tournament, Kawaja and Howard shared first place with 6-1 win-loss records. Ottawa RCMP's Graham Sinclair and Unionville's Grant threatened to create a four-way playoff, but both lost their final matches and tied for third at 4r3. Glencoe's Bill Mitchell also finished at 4-3. Completing the standings were Windsor's Phil Daniel, 2-5, and Peterborough's Andy Allison and Niagara Falls' Craig Reed, both at 1-6. Kawaja, who was outstanding in the playoff, could still be waiting for his felt award had it not been for some come-from-behind heroics in his final two matches.

After spotting Grant a 3-0 margin after three ends in the final round-robin game, Kawaja scored three in the fourth to tie and one in an extra end to win 7-6. He had a chance to leave the ice a winner in the last regular end, but a hit-and-stay shot rolled out of the circles. The same tactic, however, worked in the ex- tra end. In the playoff, Howard took two in the first end and, except for a pressure hit-and-stay shot by Kawaja, the schoolboy skip could have had a 4-0 lead after two. Instead, Kawaja marked one with the hammer, which he never had again until the ninth end.

"I made some good steals this championship," he said. "I stole the third through seventh ends in the playoff and beat Otta-. wa by stealing the first seven ends. On ice like this, I found I was able to come around the guards and score. We'd throw them up top and it wasn't until we were up two or three points, that we'd go into the house and control the game." Howard missed an excellent opportunity to go up 4-3, but his final shot was not strong enough to tap out Kawaja, who took a 4-2 lead.

"At the start, I gambled a bit and changed my game plan," said Howard, who rated his performance as sub par. "It worked for a while and I got around a few guards. But once things started going bad, they stayed bad."
