Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: David Veale, brakeman on Canada's No. 1 bobsled for Winter Olympics, isn't making use of college degree these days. He's earning living as waiter because fulltime employment would interfere with Olympic preparations. One of Canadians' problems is lack of bobsled run in Canada, but they're aiming at Top 10 placing.
