Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Romes Traffic is playing havoc with its ancient monuments and there's fear that unless something is done soon many of them are doomed. Vibration is one of the villains but pollution is also playing a part. Little has been done to divert traffic away from the ruins and there is little coherent urban planning in the city.

Looking over Toronto's railway yards, Sanford Duplassie, 25, left White River in June when CP Rail laid off workers. There's a future here, he says. Only one of his friends has remained in the north. There's nothing there for the younger person. There's no industry. There's nothing. Over half the town is made up of pnsioners. His father is one of them. Sanford's 11 brothers and sisters are scattered across North America, from Texas to British Columbia.
