The shafts were pointed skyward as we shotcover the brink on some of the wildest slides of my life. We were fortunate because we lived in the country. Santa sure had to slide down a long chimâ€" ney. Ours was a three story house situated on the bank of the Rideau Canal not far from Otâ€" tawa. I remember worrying about the huge fire that burned gaily in the fireplace on Christâ€" mas Eve.

It was obvious as early as the middle of the first period that the inevitable result was going to be a free for all the only surprise being that the tong war didn‘t start until late in the game.
