Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Shops closed: Storekeepers at the Ellesmere Village Centre in Scarborough locked their doors and went on strike yesterday to support Leo Grimaldi; second from right; who was evicted form his fish store. Grimaldi says he owes $15;000 in back rent which he won't pay because business is so bad; a fact he and other merchants blame on owners of the plaza.
