Local inventor
keeps working
on curling aid

A TERRACE inventor and curling lover is still working to
make his invention a common sight in rinks across the
country.

Al McGowan has a patent pending on his curling aid, a
device that helps disabled curlers get back into their sport.

McGowan has spent the last year touring around the pro-
vince and around westem Canada promoting his innova-
tive product.

‘It’s been a weird and wonderful year,’) McGowan gays. ;
“P'm-in debt $36,000 to this thing,-but I’m-not giving up.”

McGowan says he’s had great response from curlers and
the media about his two different models of curling aid,
but strangely, sales have been slow.

“ft don’t know why,’”’ he says. ‘‘People seem to love it
but they often stop short of buying it, Maybe they don’t
want to be the first people in their rink to get one,”’

McGowan tells a story of one man who had been curling
at the Farmer’s Bonspiel in Red Deer, Alta. for 38 years.
This year he couldn't curl because he wasn’t able to bend
his knees and slide along the ice like he used to.

The man read an article about McGowan’s device in a
local newspaper so he drove 70 km to a demonstration at a
nearby curling club.

"He tied it and within three rocks he was putting them
in the house,’’ McGowan says. ‘‘He was really gung-ho.
Then [ told him they cost $296 and he backed right off.
That guy just floored me. He could have been curling
again that weekend.”

McGowan says he'll keep plugging away at promoting
his unique aid. Last week, he got orders for five units, and
a 75-year-old man called to thank him for leaving a
demonstration model at a rink.

He told McGowan that it was the first time in years that

"Gloria, did you clean our the hen
house? That place Is beginning to smell
like there's no tamorrow.”

Arthur had just stamped into the
farm house, his rubber boots covered with
mud.

“Just calm down, now, Arthur. Can't
be everywhere at once. The dog had con-
vulsians and | had to take him
Just came back.” .

“Sorry, Gloria, it's not like me to be
this irritated. But I'm really bothered. That
monster of an inspector from the Alberta
Egg Producers Board is coming tomorrow
to inspect aur hens, and there's going to
be fireworks.”

Gloria looked puzzled. “Why, because
| didn’t clean out the hen house?” “That's
the least of our worries. No, the problem
is that the eggs in Canada is a regulated
product, Alberta doesn't want too many
hens producing too many eggs. Otherwise
the prices will get too low.”

“So why should there be fireworks
tomorrow?"

Arthur wiped the perspiration off his
brow.

"Because we have 6000 hens and
we're only allowed to have 300!"

Arthur was right. There was fireworks.
The couple received an order from the
Board telling them to get rid of 5,700
hens.

Arthur was furious. “We're a farming
couple. We're not rich. But we can't make
a proper living on 300 hens. Why should
we have to live poor when all the city peo-
ple who eat our eggs live rich.”

But rant and rave though they did,
the couple caved in, They got rid of the
. hens. Next year, the inspector came back
again.

“When are you guys going to learn.

HE JUDGE

.. BY CLAIRE BERNSTEIN

Dent Count our Eggs Bee Thee Laid oxy

BASED ON
_ ACTUAL COURT
CASES

Those are 3,440 hens in your house. You
know what the regulations are. Get rid of
them.”

Arthur was ready. “Not all our hens,
Matthew. 264 hens are curs. That's weil
below the 300 hen limit. The other 3,176
hens belong to a number of our neigh-
bors.” “Get them out, 300 hens means
just that 300 hens.”

Arthur and Gloria answered with one
volce. “No way!” The Board tock them to
court.

The Board presented their side.
“Your Honour, this whole scheme is a
scam. Arthur and Gloria are just trying to
avoid the regulations. We have never
seen any of the agreements with the
neighbors. We have recelved no com-
plaint about their hens being removed
from Arthur and Gloria's property. Make
them get rid of the extra hens.”

Arthur and Gloria told their story.
“Your Honour, we only own 264 hens.
The.number of hens the regulations allow
us to have. The rest belong to our neigh-
bors. Not everyone can afford to bulid an
egg production facitity, We decided to
lease our extra space to them. Don't let
the Board take away our leasing
business.”

Should Arthur and Gloria have to
remove the hens fer the Board?
