Original Toronto Star caption: Placed last in a six-contestant race, Toronto Transit Commissioner Karl Mallette loses a total of $18,500 a year in pay as a Scarborough controller and a member of Metro Council. He blamed his defeat, the biggest upset in yesterday's voting, on his unpopular hold-the-wage-line stand in the summer transit strike.
