Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Elephant comes back -- with her trunk. Dolly the elephant packed her trunk and came back to Toronto today for a three-night circus stand. The 1,500-pound children's favorite, who outgrew her Riverdale Zoo pen last year, clumped onto Nathan Phillips Square with her two-year-old companion Daffodil, who was reluctant to let Mayor Dennison leave.
