Original Toronto Star caption: No toy; but a scientifically constructed scale model is this sleek replica turned out for test purposes at the National Research Council laboratories in Ottawa. Built with precision; it cost more than $1;000 and took more than a month to complete. Among other things to be learned about the machine is its reaction to pontoons.
