Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: The last hurrah of Hugh Griggs: Mimico Mayor Hugh Griggs, who bows out of office when his town is absorbed by Etobicoke Jan. 1, expresses a wide range of emotions as he attends his last Metro council meeting yesterday. He will be out of politics for a while as he finished last in balloting for Etobicoke's board of control. As a parting gesture, Mr. Griggs presented Chairman Allen with a book on the town titled ''The Mimico Story.''
