Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Students march to protest Spadina. About 400 University of Toronto students march on Queen's Park today to protest the Ontario government's resolve not to interfere in Metro decisions on the Spadina expressway. They jeered Corrections Minister Allan Grossman; calling him a hypocrite and demanding an explanation of decision. Grossman retortd outside the legislature: Shut up; one fool at a time. [Incomplete]
