Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Igloo he slept in is worked on by Star religion editor Tom Harpur. He and Star photographer Dick Loek, after spending the night in it, said it was like sleeping in a supermarket meat freezer. It was built from snow blocks about 6 inches thick, 2 feet long and 15 inches wide. Eskimos no longer have them as permanent winter homes, but use them as overnight shelter when hunting.
