Description
a: A helicopter is rescuing a group of animals that are being held up by a stretcher that is tied to the bottom of the helicopter. The stretcher is tilted up in the left, and the scarves of the animals are blowing in the wind, suggesting that the helicopter is moving. There are birds flying around with them. Down below and in the background there is a idyllic mountain range, and below it is says, “SEASONS GREETINGS CATHARINE AND PETER” b: As supplement to the drawing seen in a, b is a newspaper clipping of a helicopter rescuing a man from his plane. In the bottom portion of the clipping is states, “RESCUES AT SEA. The two pictures tell two...the Atlantic at the weekend. On the left, a U.S. navy...single-engine plane after he was forced to ditch today...harbor. Two young girls and another passenger were....a French trawler, is hauled ashore by breeches buoy fro...England Sunday...” verso: an article discussing a game played by the Calgary Stampeders against the Regina Roughriders. The writes: “Sandhogs Stampeder Blitz... Keys 25-0 Win. By Gorde Hunter [Herald Sports Editor]. A brilliant defence that allowed the Regina Rough-riders a total offence of a mere 32 years, powered the Calgary Stampeders to a one-sided 25-0 win over the Roughriders Saturday afternoon at McMahon in the first game of the Western Conference total point semi-final series. With a crowd of 17,780 sitting in bright sunshine, the Cowboys completely dominated proceedings from flag to finish as the sandhogs made a shambles of the Regina attack by putting a tremendous rush on quarterback Bob Ptacek, a thorn in Stampeder sides all season. He managed to complete but five passes in 17 attempts for 47 yeard and the ground attack had less success. Meanwhile EAgle Day guided the Stamps to three touch-downs, a field goal, two converts and a pair of singles to add up to the 25 points they will take into tonights’s second game...”
