Original Toronto Star caption: Grey cup fever in Hamilton has made football almost a religion. Vi Morgan, her son David, 10, and Jack Barr wear Tiger-Cat costumes Mrs. Morgan made in one night. They're outside the church of Rev. George Soutar, who says: God still comes first in Hamilton but the Ticats come next. The city agrees.
