...Editors: As a World War II veteran, I am outraged that many individuals, including President Reagan and Pat Buchanan, are calling Lieut. Colonel Oliver North a national hero (NATION, Dec. 22).

And, says coach Pat Quinn, who also skippered the team at Salt Lake City in 2002 when Canada snapped a 50-year Olympic-gold-medal dry spell: "Talent isn't the only thing that wins here." Proper chemistry and discipline factor into the mix as well, and Canada showed little of either against the Swiss. Canadian forward Dany Heatley put it succinctly: "Things didn't go our way."
