Original Toronto Star caption: First cut-off of hydro power in the downtown Toronto network are today found Dawn Geary ready with an answer-two lanterns. Power cut-off from 9-10 a.m. stalled elevators; darkened skyscrapers except those which had managed to secure some type of auxiliary power. Late arrivals for work were still later unless they risked climbing stairs.
