Thurn was a Saskatchewan educator who earned the nickname "The Battling School Principal" for his boxing and athletic achievements (including a 1937 provincial welterweight championship). In this souvenir booklet, Thurn celebrates the Bentley hockey family of Delisle, Saskatchewan. The five Bentley brothers : Max, Doug, Reg, Roy, and Wyatt ("Scoop"). Thurn summarizes their accolades and achievements, then dives into a history of the brothers' upbringing and hockey careers. The booklet covers various levels of competition, including the Bentleys' first games with the Delisle Tigers, senior hockey with the Drumheller Miners, and professional careers in the NHL. Statistics, lists of team affiliations, and photographs support Thurn's text. Well-wishes and advertisements from local Saskatchewan businesses begin and end the volume. Canadian hockey memorabilia and a small-town celebration of athletic success.
