Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Bathurst heights collegiate students swarm onto busy Lawrence Ave. W. in heavy; 30-mile-an-hour traffic; causing drivers to slam on the brakes. Rear-end crashes are barely avoided and vehicles swerving to avoid hitting teenagers risk collision with crowded buses. Student council wants traffic light at school because teenagers won't block to Varda Dr.
