Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: It's one thing to set traps; but another to get pesky cubs to tumble for the ruse. Star photographer Normzan James had a field day snapping pictures of them cavorting through the wilds but he found it a difficult task to steer them into the honey-baited traps. If all goes well the bruins will arrive in Toronto on July 7.
