By Ken Campbell Ohen spucul cryrturxylent SUDBURY Call it beginner's luck but whatever it was, it certainly worked for Heather Houston of Thunder Bay. Houston, a 28-year-old graphic artist with the Lakehead Board of Education, brought consistency itself to an art form by winning the Scott Tournament of Hearts Ontario playdowns at the Idyl-wylde Curling Club in Sudbury over the weekend.

Despite being only a first-year skip, Houston and her rink of vice Heather Lang, seconnd Diane Adams and lead Tracy Kennedy quietly cruised to a record of 8-1 in the round robin to take top honors. The foursome is now off to Fre-dricton, New Brunswick for the National Championships Feb. 22-28. Pre-tournament favorite and former world champion Marilyn Darte, of St. Catharines finished second with a record of 6-3 while Mary Susan Bell, of Brampton finished third also at 6-3.

Anne Merklinger's rink from the Rideau Curling Club lost four games on the last rock and had to settle for fourth place at 5-4 while newcomer Nancy Percival of the Ottawa Curling Club finished seventh with a record of "We're exhausted and ecstatic," said Houston, after defeating the Bell rink 11-4 Sunday morning to take the crown. While most were talking about Darte, Thornhill's Alison Goring and Merklinger as the odds-on favorites, Houston's rink quietly romped through the playdowns with its only loss coming in the second round to Goring. "I wouldn't say the other teams took us lightly but we didn't mind not being in the limelight," said Houston. "We're very low-key and that's the way we like it." Darte meanwhile admitted that this year's provincials were not her rink's best outing "That was kind of awful," she quipped after a 5-4 loss to Taffy Drajanoff, of Geraldton in the fial draw. "Even though we won our fair share of games, we really struggled." For Merklinger, the difference between 9-0 and 5-4 was four shots and several key misses.

"We did end up with a fairly respectable record and we're satisfied with that. But, I wouldn't say we're pleased," said Merklinger of her rink of vice Jackie Hogg, second Pam Lewis and lead Denise Allan. "All four games that we lost were on the last rock and they could have gone either way. i missed two key shots myself and that would have meant two more wins for us."
