Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: But Burns is a grumpy sort of guy, don't forget. And Toronto's current National Hockey League entry hasn't exactly been a cornucopia of delightful surprises, has it? So the coach has come across as a hard-to-please meanie. Stage three finds many of the same media commentators lecturing Burns for imitating a broken record. Pat had better lighten up, one of them [Incomplete]

      Mark Baker, student president at the school, had earlier recommended a race-relations department to deal with the issue. We need it to sort out differences so they don't escalate to this point, Baker, a Grade 13 student, said yesterday. He is being credited for defusing last week's crisis by going on the school's public address system.
