Hilton is second from the left in the picture.
Terrier forwards| Gold watch recipients Tuesday afternoon at the civic dinner included from the left Dan Bonar, Bill Calder, Don Arthur and Randy Penner. At the rear are secretary-treasurer of the city of Portage la Prairie, D. G. Rodger and Ald. W. A. Linden, who presented the four players with the watches. In front of Penner is Barry Moroz, play-by-play broadcaster on CFRY of the Terriers games, who was a head table guest.
Autograph seekers| Saskatchewan Avenue was lined with hundreds of people Tuesday afternoon as youngsters cheered the victorious Terriers and got autographs from players prior to the Terriers being treated to a steak dinner hosted by the city of Portage at the Portage Hotel. Here is a sample of the crowd that waited for the motorcade to stop near hotel.
