The fact that J). Keys, another 'member of the rink, is also a paid secretary-manager for Royals, merely aflds to the situation. If Garnet Campbell, and brother Don, will declare themselves as affiliated with one club only--and only one club--then to represent that club would not be such a contentious situation, but we fail to see how Don can accept Tam O'Shanter pay cheques and play for Toronto Royals, even if he does hold berships in both clubs. Winning the Canadian championship is surely not that important to any Ontario club and the business "importing" players from Western Canada does not sit welll with the general membership of most clubs nor with the curling fraternity as a whole. |straight. ; Hugh Goodson, chairman of e millionaire syndicate that (built Sceptre, said members of four potential British syndicates will meet in London in late Feb- ruary to decide whether to chal- |lenge again in 1961.
