Image of a group of five children on an improvised skating rink playing hockey. Related annotation reads: "It doesn't take a trip to the sunny south to bring winter happiness to youth. All the boys, above, needed was a detour sign - a ready-made sled. Even a discarded tire, below left, can be fun - if you can manage to hang on. Venue doesn't matter, either. There's as much competition on the ice rink created by bulldozers at Hightway 401 near Morningside Ave., above left, as you'll find at Sapporo during the winter Olympics. Sun photos by Les Crosby and Alex Kalnins."
