Original Toronto Star caption: Cree Indian Artist and sculptor Don McLeay explains the legend of how the beaver got its tail to student at North York's cherokee Public School. It is the theme of his yet-unfinished mural in back-ground on wall of the resource centre. He had already painted other murals in the school. McLeay; 37; says he deplores the influence of television on children in distorting their knowledge of Indians. Born in Manitoba; McLeay now lives in Toronto.
