Original Toronto Star caption: Back in action: David Sefton and son Andrew take a rest on a couch; discarded along with a mound of garbage at Cummer Park; after a strenuous game of racquetball at the park's fitness centre. The club is back in business and crews have started to clear away the garbage that piled up in a 19-day strike by North York civic workers. They approved a new contract on Friday.
