Original Toronto Star caption: Metro's TV image is all wet today. Dampened but undaunted members of cast of Today TV show brave the weather during this morning's telecast from rain-drenched Nathan Phillips Square for an audience of 8,000,000 U.S. viewers. More than 100 spectators gathered to watch interviewers Joe Garagiola (left) and Barbara Walters, and show host Hugh Downs tell their audience about Canada, and Toronto. Three levels of government are underwriting some costs of the show to the extent of $60,000 with a view to promoting Canada's image to United States tourists.
