Original Toronto Star caption: Car-winning Jays fan Bert Hynes waves to baseball crowd at Exhibition Stadium last night after being presented with a new car by John Russell, a Canadian Honda Motor Ltd. official. He was one of five people to win a car - it was the Blue Jays' way of thanking the first million fans to attend their home games. This couldn't have come at a better time . . . the old car's ready to fall apart.
