Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: The cosmic home coffee house on upper Yonge St. is run by Dave Defries (right) and Jerry Rugiel. They spent $7;500 fixing up an old store; opened it in January and have been serving up chili con carne and rock 'n' roll ever since. But they've been running into a little trouble from their neighbors.
