Known as "Jake the Snake," he was a goalie, 1952-75, mostly with Montreal. Jacques Plante was the first goalie to use a mask as part of his playing equipment. Previously, some goalies wore masks while recovering from injuries. His practice of roaming from the net to play the puck for his defensemen brought an entirely new dimension to the game. In an astonishing string of seasons beginning in 1955-56, Plante won the Vezina Trophy and led the Montreal Canadiens to the Stanley Cup for five straight years. He made eight all-star appearances in all. He died February 27, 1986 in Geneva, Switzerland - Canada CAN2000B06.6

Extractions: The most popular short story writer of his era, William Sydney Porter was born on Polecat Creek in Guilford County, and raised and educated in Greensboro by an unmarried aunt who ran a private school. Young William Sydney Porter worked in an uncle's drug store until he moved at nineteen to Texas where he held a variety of jobs including paying and receiving teller at the First National Bank of Austin. To supplement his income, he wrote free-lance sketches, and was briefly editor and co-owner of a humorous weekly called The Rolling Stone . While he was working as a columnist for the Houston Daily Post , Porter was indicted for the embezzlement of bank funds during his time as a teller. His trial was delayed for two years first by his escape to New Orleans and Honduras, then by his wife's illness and death. Although it is not known for certain whether Porter was an embezzler or merely an incompetent bookkeeper, he was sentenced to five years in the Ohio Penitentiary. His jobs as the prison's night druggist and as secretary to the steward allowed him time to write, and he published his first short story from prison under a pen name. He used several pseudonyms, but upon his early release for good behavior, he chose to write as O. Henry. Porter moved to New York City in 1902, ostensibly to obtain material, although for the next few years his work continued to reflect his experiences in the southwest and Central America. All but 16 of the 115 stories he wrote in 1904 and 1905 dealt with New York, and on the publication of his second book

There he was employed at various pursuits, including teller in an Austin bank and as a reporter for the Houston Post. O. Henry also wrote and published his own weekly humor newspaper, called The Rolling Stone While employed at the Post , he was charged with embezzlement from his former bank job. He promptly fled to Honduras, leaving his wife behind. However, when his wife became seriously ill he returned and stood trial after her death. He was convicted, and spent three years in prison. It was there that he started writing. After his release, he moved to New York City where he spent the rest of his days. He took the pseudonym O.

Upbringing, Education, Family and Professional Life William Sidney Porter was born near Greensboro, North Carolina on September 11, 1862. Three years later his mother died and his father who was a doctor was left to care for him. His only formal education came from his aunt who ran a private school in his neighborhood for him and other local children. His uncle owned a pharmacy and he worked there and became a licensed pharmacist before the age of twenty. His sketches and drawings of people in Greensboro were known all about the town and he was a local celebrity. At the age of twenty, Porter moved to Texas and worked on a sheep ranch. Sources say he moved to Texas for health reasons and there he stayed until 1898. He lived with an old family friend Richard M. Hall where his experiences would prove relevant later in his short stories. In 1884, he left the ranch and moved to Austin where he stayed in the home of Joseph Harrell and held many jobs in Austin. There he first used his pen name, O. Henry. In 1887, he worked as a draftsman in the General Land Office, then headed by his friend Richard Hall. In 1891, Porter resigned and took a job as a teller at the First National Bank.
