Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: An unabashed montreal mayor: Jean Drapeau stands proudly in the world's first indoor racing-bicycle track at Montreal's Olympic Games site; called by one columnist; the East End Taj Mahal. With hands clasping guardrail; he seems to encompass the vaulting roof and tiers of seats. Is he a dreamer? No; I walk with my feet on the ground . . . but looking above.
