Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Alberta skip Hec Gervis, middle, was upset yesterday, 10-6, by New Brunswick's John Clark, leaving way clear for Ontario's Paul Savage to get back into the picture in Canadian Curling Championships. Savage's Scarboro club rink responded with two victories after losing twice Monday. Manitoba and Quebec, each 3-0, lead in now wide-open Brier. Sweeping for Gervais, who was world curling champion in 1961, are Warren Hansen, left, and Darrel Sutton.
