Original Toronto Star caption: A fall guy is Sesqui. A soldier overcome by 28C (82F) heat collapsed yesterday during the changing of the guard; a daily event at Nathan Phillips Square during Toronto's Sesquicentennial celebrations. But members of the Governor-General's Horse Guards and Royal Regiment of Canada; who were performing the ceremony; didn't flinch at the faint.
