Original Toronto Star caption: Now where have I seen that face before? A cigar stuck belligerently in his jaw and a briefcase clutched under his arm, a hurrying businessman casts a brief glance at a wood carving as he crosses Nathan Phillips Square. Despite yesterday's record heat and stifling humidity, hundreds of Torontonians took a more leisurely approach to the 6th Toronto Annual Outdoor Art Exhibition and browsed around. They had plenty to look at. In addition to many works by professional artists, there are about 300 amateurs competing for a $1,000 cash award.
