Original Toronto Star caption: Blind, deaf boy meets Lieutenant-Governor, Lieutenant-Governor John Black Aird threw a party yesterday at Queen's Park for about 120 blind and deaf children, most from W. Ross MacDonald School in Brantford. The clowns, band and balloons were a big hit with the kids. Max Crawford, 7, felt Aird's nose as he talked to the Lieutenant-Governor.
