Original Toronto Star caption: In downtown stores; hundreds of hockey fans packed display rooms and windows to watch yesterday's final game. About 300 persons watched three dozen TV sets on sixth floor of Simpsons Queen St. store (above); about half of them store employees. Everything paused for game. Crimes; accidents and fire calls were reduced through out the game; but resumed their normal pace as soon as it finished.

Scott Craigie. To laymen they're known as window dressers. But aesthete Scott Craigie calls himself a display manager. As the man in charge of windows and in - store displays for exclusive Hazelton Lanes, Craigie creates ever-changing window fantasies for a dozen boutiques.
