Original Toronto Star caption: Straining to touch him, eager girls greet Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau at City Hall yesterday. He was there to tape the CBC television show, The Public Eye. Within moments, word spread of Trudeau's arrival and crowds soon formed hoping to get a glimpse of him. He was whisked into the men's room off the Council Chamber for a make-up session and was served a dinner of stuffed Jobster, cold cuts, salad, strawberries.
