Original Toronto Star caption: A portrait of Harold Ballard smiles up at Red Kelly, former Leafs hockey player and coach, as he signs a guest book yesterday at the Gardens. About 4,000 people went to the Gardens to file past the closed casket of the Leaf's owner, who died Thursday. Among them was Ballard's companion Yolanda (right), who - under police escort - left clutching a tissue and a prayer book, after a private one-hour visit.
