Original Toronto Star caption: Water and lights to brighten spring nights. Gaily splashing fountains and a multitude of bright lights give a festive air to University Ave. on a spring evening. But it looks as if will be a while yet before the weather is nice enough to enjoy this scene. The forcast is for continuation of our cold spell for a few more days; with rain; wet snow and increasing easterly winds predicted for tonight. Thursday will be wet and cool with a high expected of 48 above.
