Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: They're making their ship Ship-shape. While 11;000 tons of raw sugar from Australia is being unloaded from the Greek-registry freighter Atlantic Star in Toronto harbor; some of the crew are busy cleaning and painting the hull. It's big job: The ship is 630 feet long and 75 feet wide; and it's expected to sail out of Toronto tomorrow. It's one of the many overseas ships that have put in to Toronto this year; unloading 212;862 tons of cargo by May 31.
