Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Here's looking at you: The interest is mutual as Beavers and white rhinoceroses eye each other yesterday at the Metro zoo. The invasion of the zoo by 3;000 Beavers - Boy Scouts aged 5 to 7 - marked the largest Beaveree ever held in Toronto and sent zoo attendance to 11;500; a record for this time of year. Beavers seen here are members of St. Monica's Colony.
