Original Toronto Star caption: Requiem for Baseball: They picked at the bones of Toronto Maple Leafs yesterday when club belongings were auctioned off. Len Andrews; carting away home plate in gloom and desolation of Maple Leaf Stadium; didn't steal it. He bought it for $5 and they threw in the crying towel he carries on his shoulder.
