Original Toronto Star caption: Not a Mudder apparently, Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, wearing brand new football cleats, got his foot on the ball all right to kick off today's Grey Cup game-but despite days of practise the ball only bribbled five yards before it hit photographers trying to take pictures. Trudeau wore turtleneck sweater.
