Original Toronto Star caption: Awesome little giant that plunged half a continent into darkness last Tuesday was a relay device similar to this one. Ontario Hydro took the blame yesterday for the super short-circuit after tracing it to a backup relay; a glorified fuse 18 inches long; at Queenston generating station. Finger points to one segment.
