The specacular rise of sheep shearing is not only adding va- riety to New Zealand's sporting attractions but also marks a .development of national im- portance, New Zealand has long been a pioneer in sheep shearing tech- niques, In 1888 a New Zea- lander, Alec Hutchinson, was the first' man in the world to shear 100 sheep in a day, using the newly invented shearing machines, METHODS IMPROVED A decade ago wool growers were worried about the drift of} The golden shears contest is shearers to the cities and lack|the climax of the season.

Today in New Zealand 28 in- structors all teach the same style and thousands of shearers have been taught the new methods. Revived interest led to repeated record attemps, and to the drawing up of rules, for shearing competitions. Nowadays such contests are a regular feature of all country fairs and they are even staged at mannequin parades of wool- len garments and in city depart- ment stores. SEASON'S CLIMAX emerged using improved meth- in- Since then he countries, including Canada, the on ing to the experience of the shearers, Points are awarded on the quality of the shearing as well as on speed and the fastest man is by no means always the winner, Each shearer shears a given number of sheep --up to 20 according to the contest--and his work is closely scrutinized by the judges, Contests are held in wool- handling as well as shearing. This involves removing, sorting and folding the fleeces, a job usually' done by women. This year three women also com- peted in the shearing contests. The events have proved so successful in New Zealand that next year it is planned to stage a Commonwealth contest, for teams of three at Bath, Eng- land. | Meanwhile inerest in shear- ing has been a boon to the wool industry, New Zealand's largest earner of foreign exchange. Shearing today is of a higher standard than ever before and jsolves the problem of coping with New Zealand's 50,000,000 sheep, most of which are shorn twice a year. OLD COUNTRY SOCCER |}. Glasgow Rangers To Wear, Scotland's Triple Crown? By M. McINTYRE HOOD Special London, England Correspondent To The Oshawa Times GLASGOW, Scotland -- Glas- gow Rangers are now well on the way to winning the trinle crown of Scottish soccer honors, Already they have won the Scot- tish League Cup. They have quite a safe lead for the Scot- tish League championship. Now only Dundee stand between the Rangers and a repeat perform-) ance as winners of the Scottish|$!0"- Cup. |SPURS DECLINE The semi-final round produced!

DUNDEE SURPRISE Dundee, however, won the great triumph of the day by a sparkling four to nil defeat of Kilmarnock, somewhat against the run of the record. But there was no questioning the superior- ity of the Dundee team. Gilzean, their international centre for- ward, sealed the fate of Kil- marnock with two gulden goals, and outside right Penman notch- ed the other two to make it a runaway victory for the Dundee team, The other game was much tighter. Dunfermline were in the fight right to the last minute, and lost by 1-0, thanks to an op- portunist goal scored by outside left Wilson one minute before half-time, No quarter was asked during the 90 minutes of struggle, in which three players, Kerry and Peebles of Dunferm- line and Baxter of Rangers had their names taken by the refcree for unduly rough tackling The final game should be one of the historic cup finals, as Dundee take reached peak form at just the right- moment, and Broadloom-T Rug Cl ANcus-GRAYDON CARPET COMPANY 282 King W., Oshawa ® Tel, 728-6254 Oshawa's Rug and Carpet Centre ile-Linoleum professional eaning NO OT Give your eyes a lift!
