Original Toronto Star caption: . . . Up--and ordained!; Bobbing up again; the Jehovah's Witness has now been ordained as a new minister of the Gospel. Each candidate held his right wrist with his left hand and with his fingers of his right hand held on to his nose. Each received a word of comfort from a baptizer before being tipped gently backwards into the pool's water.
