Re VANOC Balks At Giving Up Sid's Puck (Sports, March 12): And there went out a champion of the Canadianites named Cros of Cole and, in the Land of the Lotus, he slew the giant US with a puk. His fame was great, and the people desired to build an altar to the Puk of Cros. But there came a disputation.
VANOC, Lord of the Land of the Lotus, sought to house the holy puk in a shrine to be built there; whereas HHoF, Lord of the Land of the Hog, lusted after the puk for his great temple of Hok. Thus they came to Solomon, King of the Canadianites.
The King heard their entreaties and said: Bring me a sword. And they brought a sword, and Solomon, with a mighty blow, did cleave the puk in twain. Unto VANOC he gave half the puk, and to HHoF its twin, saying: Now you are the keepers thereof, go in peace.
