Original Toronto Star caption: Let the band play: Jubilant young musicians from the Dixon Grove Middle School in Etobicoke raise their violins in triumph after winning top place with a score of 88 points in the string ensemble; second-year training section at the Kiwanis Festival. This marks the ensemble's second victory. They won last year as well. They'll try for a hat trick; they say; so it's back to practising.
