Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Aftermath of blast: Etobicoke firefighters climb toward the smoke-filled Championship Lounge at Woodbine Race Track during a fire yesterday afternoon. The second-floor lounge became a raging inferno; as one racetrack employee described it; after a propane tank exploded. Construction workers renovating the bar were using the tank for heating.
