Description: This scene is no different than it has ever been for youth of the Copper Country through the years. This group of Hancock boys had a lot of fun perspiring in the fresh air on Elm Street. Copper Country boys of the junior and intermediate leagues and those who have played on college hockey teams at Michigan Tech and Michigan State and the several who have played in the National Hockey League, got their first taste of hockey on foot "rinks" such as this one. Some mom's supper had to wait as can be noted by grocery box on the sleigh in right foreground. [Several of the neighborhood boys have a game on the snow covered street.]
