Description: Cyclone Taylor didnt need any person to tell him about hockey exploits as he dropped the puck here Friday night to start the climatic contest between the North Dakota Sioux and Tech Huskies at the Student Ice Arena. He had competed in hundreds of gruelling puck contests in the past, contests way back to 1905 in the venerable Amphidrome near the spot on which Dee Stadium stands now. Here Tech Photographer Charles Eshbach has captured the scene just as the veteran wingman Taylor, 93, drops the puck after an absence from the area of 70 years. Dark shirted No. 11 is Cycs grandson, Mark, while No. 15 is Huskie Stu Ostland. [The hockey legend drops the puck at a crowded SDC.]
