Original Toronto Star caption: 10-By-12-Inch hole in bars through which eight convicts escaped - one was recaptured - from Mimico Correctional Centre is inspected by a prison official today. Police said the escapers were dangerous; and some had been convicted of robbery with violence. Their break for freedom followed a marijuana-smoling party in a prison dormitory. The escape was just after midnight.
