Fire destroyed one of Calgary's oldest churches the 50 year old St Barnabas Anglican Church in the northwest. Rector Dr Thomas Leadbeater said restoring the old stone and brick church could cost about 100000. Firemen fought for nearly three hours as seven below zero temperatures hampered access and water supply. Alarms came from five fire stations as two pedestrians first spotted smoke from the eaves.

Arm-Twist Ends CPR Strike After Nine-Day Tieup
Ottawa reports CPR trains return to service after Prime Minister St Laurent pressed both sides to a settlement ending a nine day strike by the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen. The walkout idled 67,000 workers and halted substantial freight, with estimates of revenue losses reaching 14 million dollars.
