Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Traffic stopper; Shelby Pilot; 19; says she roller skates 15 miles a day. It's better than taking the TTC; she says; because you get a suntan and keep in shape. She should know. She's a fitness instructor. Motorists on Eglinton Ave. W. at Bathurst St. yesterday didn't seem to mind. But with showers forecast for tomorrow; she'll miss the suntan.
