Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Patricia Roc gives mayor McCallum a rose. There was white - tie - and - tails stuff on Carlton St. last night. There was a blocked sidewalk, bright flashing lights, and a movie actor and actress waving from a balcony to the crowd below. When the doors of the new Odeon-Toronto theatre were finally opened, people who'd been standing in line since 5 p.m. lunged forward to sample the luxury of the country's newest movie mansion. They weren't in white ties and tails, these folks. The formal dress was worn by the dignitaries in the loge circle who came by invitation and didn't have to wait in the queue which, at one point, stretched almost around the block.
