Original Toronto Star caption: Toronto skater welcomed home by cheering thousands: Toronto skating enthusiasts thronged Maple Leaf Gardens last night to see Stewart Reburn (LEFT) teamed with the internationally known skating star, Sonja Henie (RIGHT) in a carnival with 100 in the cast. So great an ovation did the thousands of spectators give the couple, they were obliged to reappear for eight encores. It was the first time Reburn had skated in his native city since turning professional to become Sonja Henie's partner.
