Original Toronto Star caption: The Chief at the controls; Timmy-12-year-old Steven Fitzpatrick; and Whipper Billy Watson wheel into a dinner dance for the Ontario Society for Crippled Children last night in snowmobile. Former prime minister John Diefenbaker was guest speaker. It was to be a roasting for ex-wrestler Watson. Instead he was toasted for work with crippled children.
