In a rare bit of scientific detective work, phyicists at Ontario Research Foundation in Sheridan Park proved Canada's 1855 black 12-penny stamp was used in a mailing from Hamilton to England in 1855, boosting its value from about $3,000 to anywhere from $25,000 to $40,000 for owner, a British collector. Principal scientist in applied physics, Eric Chatfield shows enlargement of letter.

Future applications for the amazing laser seem limited only by the imagination. As an industrial tool, the laser - a beam of light - is expected to serve a $1 billion market within a few years. University of Toronto physics professor Dr. B. P. Stoicheff demonstrates laser with help from graduate student Bob McCaren.
