Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Double Douglas: While he may appear overshadowed by the huge poster behind him, New Democrat leader Tommy Douglas was definitely the centre of attention to the 12,000 persons who crowded Maple Leaf Gardens last night for the wind-up of his Eastern Canada Campaigning. He'll be in west until election.
