Original Toronto Star caption: On His Lonely Vigil; shipkeeper Bill Peachie looks over the 730-foot Canadian Olympic; the new $33 million grain and coal carrier in her winter berth at Toronto Harbor. She's loaded with a million bushels of wheat; which she'll unload with her automatic conveyor system - the ladder-like extension on top of the deck - in Quebec the April. Peachie is a $1;200-a-month oiler by trade.
