Original Toronto Star caption: Huddled in winter gear to keep warm after the heating system broke down yesterday; young crew members of the runaway Atlantean keep watch as the stricken freighter flounders in the Atlantic; Mounties behind it and ice floes ahead. Captain Brian Erb of Montreal is praying for some stiff winds to break up the ice so the ship can reach Boston; where; he says; its rightful owners are.
