Eaglechild

I remember the totem pole being donated to the city by penitentiary inmates, but I didn't realise how long ago this happened. It was in 1975. How time flies!
I dropped into the Historical Museum this afternoon where three charming young ladies were eager to help me with the totem's history.
The creator was James Sutherland, from Manitoba, and he was assisted by Dale Stonechild. It was named "Eaglechild", and its story, as told to the City, "describes the love and sharing of knowledge among the thunder bird, the beaver, and the Indian people."
OK! Here's a question for you Prince Albertans. Who was the Mayor at the time of the donation?
The first person with the correct answer as a "Comment" will win a coffee (Ethiopian tall, of course!) from me at Shananigan's. Hopefully this will bring someone out from the woodwork!
(Sorry, museum staff are not permitted to answer this Q).
Hey! This will get me only one "Comment", so the rules are now changed. A name will be drawn from a hat containing all the names, then I will phone the winner. How's that?
