WORDS BY

•MUSIC BY K GROUP
OF COMPOSERS
(Sung by tLittle Paul Bunyan)
\Paul Bunyan was a lumberjack, a giant lägging man,
jPaut Bunyan ivas a crackerjack wUh magk in his hand,
\With faithful Babe, his big Blue Ox, he flattened out the plain,
iThcn picking up the scatteredrocks that studded the terrain .
\He piled the RCcky Mountains up and capped them ali withsnow —-
[He ptdled down clouds to da that job . . . oh wasn*t that some showl
He scored the earth for Hudson Bay to make a tiater hole,
Thenivith his little jinger traced Tohere rivers had tö flow, . ;
He bent a river just a bit and made Nia^ra Falls,
• Newfoundland then he went and set amid the ocean's squäUs —
Paul Bunyan was a mighty man, he was the first Canuck,
l He made the country with his hands, and then he said, "Cood Luckl"
Paul Bunyan was a logging man, a chopper-dovm of trees —- ' •
\ His axe jlashed in the morning sun, his beard floived in the breeze.
iHc Tvas the bcst dam' ivorking man this coifntry ever saw,
lAt cvcry trade he tricd his hand, ivas master of them alt:
\He built the citics big and proud atid paved the slreets and roads,
iTIte western prairic then he ploughed-— and grain grew up like gddl
Hcjaid the rails from east to west-— and then he ran the trainf
He'sailed upon the ocean'screst from China to Ukraine, . ^
He built the mills and made machines — and how the goods did flow/
Into the earth hedug doion deeP''and brought up oil and coal: ,
Paul Btinyan pickcd an atom up — a frightful mystery — v
And crackcd it like a hazelnut! "Your turntdvfork," said he.
(Sung by Big Paul Bunyan)
In logging camps big tales arctold of me and what I do.
Since lumberjacks don't lie, yöu hftovJthose stories mustbe truc.
But first my story started ivhen, a century ago
Our figfit for liberty was led by Louis Papineau
With axe in hand I stoutly fought to guard my country s right.

contributed their shares.to Che picture
of Paul Bunyon. "And he.at least, will
live as long as there Is a forest for his
refuge, as long as there are 'Shadows
and whispers of trees." ;And he will
live as long as there are vrorlting men.
' And whodoes Paul Bunyon belong
to? HIS. stories have been created by
lumberjacks ali over'this oontinent,
and his legend belongs -to both Cana-dlanand'American
loggers and work-ing
men. But as Paul Bunyon himself
might have said: ".when the story-telhng
Americans get golng.with their
tali tales, they teli fthe - tallest, the
broadest and'the longest Stones you
everheard. Now mind you the Grand
Qanyon is the. deepest river bed you
ever saw but vhen they vanted to
blame a big. man for ma-king It, the
biggest man they could find tvas a
Canadian.*? «
NOTE: The si<elling of the
name "Bunyon" Is dellberate In
this articlc. The orlginal French-
Canadian spelling Is Bnnyon with
an "o". After the migration of :
i the legends across the border the
name was somehow and at some

changed to Bunyan with a n " a " .

The year 1954 wlll go down in
-Canadian sports history as one of
great achlevements. for our athletes,
and growlng national consdousness
among sportsfans and players alike.
This .was the year of Marilyn Bell.
Tom Park, Rich Ferguson, Frances'
Daföe and Norrie Bowden, Rocket
Richard, Pat Pleteher. It"was also,
the year In which such outq^apdlng
eridiron personalities as Joe Krol and,
Hec Crlghton strongly challenged the"
grovJng U S . Öomination of Canadian
fooiball, and called for some swift
cha'nges. '
Tii^e past year was also one of many
upsets. :It seemed as if every time
somethuig happened in the sports
World, It was the unexpected.
•From a Canadian viewpolnt the
most astounding uprnt was the defeat
of Canada's .East York Lyndihursts by.
the Soviet tcam in the World Hockey
•Championships held ^at Stockholm
last ^ a r c h . The Moscow Dynamos,
entered forvthe first time In the worId
series, nascd out the Canuoks, 13
points to 12 when the tally was
counted. In tlie flnal game the
Dynamos beat the Caiiadiaxft by the
score of 7-2j proving they were the
ma:i-ers bf the tournament.
Canadian fans were eorry a better
team couldn't go to the worJd tour­nament.
Had the govemment pro-vlded
funds to help scnd a team to
Stockholm, top-notch players who
would be compensated for time lost
from. work would have: been able
to make the trip.
Continuing on hockey, 1954 .'iaw the
Detroit Red Wings take the National
Hodkey League's Stanley Cup for the
slxth time. The Whigs nosed out
Montreal Oanadiens in one of- the
most excitingplay-of f series i n NHL
history. Tony Leswlclk's sIow bounclng
goal at 4:29 in the overtlme perlod

«Detroit. Ib Was as spectacular a^flnlsh

The year that saw Marilyn Bell
successfully swlm Lake Ontario "for
the honor of Canada'^ 'wlll long: be
remembered by Canadians along wlth
others in the world. As wen as be-comlng
the first and only person ever
to sWim across Lake Ontario, Marilyn
made the news last July 26 wheri.:
she became the first woman to fInish
the 28-mile Atlantic City Ccnteimlal
swlm and was reventh i n the fleld of
37. The 17-year-old Toronto sohool
giri was pickcd as Canada's outstand-:
ing female athlete of 1954 by Can-ada's
sports edltors. In oontrast,
the 'New York Times in Its review
of events iri the thrlUing sports year,
makes no mcntion of Marilyn Bell.
It's about time the sports vrltern In;
the UJS. forgot national favorltlsm
and looked out at the international
scenc for a change,
Special mcntion should be made of
Winnie Roach Lueszler who made a
valiant etfort to swlm Lake Ontario
for Canada along with Miss Bell,
'Another Canadian sv/immer whO
