Original Toronto Star caption: Salvaging furniture as a $750;000 blaze sweeps through Six Points Plaza in Etobicoke; men carry chairs across the parking lot while firemen pour streams of water into six flaming stores behind them. No one was hurt in the fire; which firemen say apparently started in the basement of Bad Boy Appliances and spread rapidly through adjoining stores. Firemen fought the blaze for eight hours.
