Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: He's working: Toller Cranston, Canada's premier figure skater, says it was easier to skate his exhausting routines when he was 16 but he still can do it. Nothing would please him more when he returns to Maple Leaf Gardens next Tuesday than for the crowd to say, That guy still can skate.
