Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: A puckstopper turns showstopper. Jacques Plante is used to taking bows around arenas in the National Hockey League where he has starred for several seasons as a goaltender. But yesterday at the O'Keefe Centre, the Leaf netminder made a guest appearance as a stretcher bearer in the National Ballet's production of the Nutcracker. Plante performed well enough to rate curtain call he is seen taking here with other members of the cast.
