Original Toronto Star caption: Time to take a flying leap. The tailwind was chilly; but 12-year-old Janet Falcone of St. Louis elementary school had an idea. She kept her hands warm in her shirt sleeves; then uncorked the winning leap in the girls' long jump at the Metro separate school track finals in Etobicoke.
