Like 1993 in Geneva, Switzerland, Canada took the Women's and Men's
titles in a doubleheader sweep today in Oberstdorf, Germany.

WOMENS' FINAL

The reigning Canadian and World champion Sandra Peterson rink from Regina 
successfully defended their title by defeating Scotland with a 5-3 score.

	Canada		100 100 210 x		5
	Scotland	001 010 001 x		3

MENS' FINAL

After a 14 year drought, Rick Folk of Kelowna won the Labatt Brier in March
and the World championship today by defeating Sweden 3-2 in a very close game.
Rick Folk last won the Brier and the World title from the province
of Saskatchewan.  This year's winning rink included vice-skip Pat Ryan 
who skipped an Alberta rink to the 1989 Brier and World titles.

	Canada		100 000 100 1		3
	Sweden		001 000 001 0		2
