Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Welcome back: The trotters and pacers were back in action at Greenwood Raceway last night for the first time since Dec. 31. The harness horsemen's boycott of the Ontario Jockey Club; which had kept the track closed for 28 days; didn't seem to dampen the enthusiasm of the 12;405 who greeted the return of racing; which kicked off with a win by Pollution Control in the first race. The hot favorite is shown reaching finish with Garth Gordon in the sulky.
