Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Lying down on the job. Metro police began one of their largest training programs yesterday by lying about at Dennison Armories - but it was all for a good cause. All officers from the rank of sergeant down are learning cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) so they will be better prepared to aid heart attack victims. It will take 10 months for all 5,100 police officers to complete training.
