Description
Three different scenes are arranged vertically and drawn in pencil. The top two scenes are numbered 13 and 14 (numbers in circles) respectively. The top scene is of a car driving away from the viewer, over rural hills. The sky has light rays that radiate from the far horizon. The middle scene shows the back of a man sitting at a typewriter. The typewriter sits amid many books on a desk. The bottom scene is difficult to discern because it is sketched rather roughly. In the top half of the scene are crudely drawn circular and triangular shapes. Diagonal lines occupy the bottom half.

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...”
