Actually; it's just a dummy set up by Bill Beitsos at his Petro-Canada service station on Queen St. E. just west of Carlaw Ave. Beitsos said he did it for fun after acquiring the complete front end of a car; which was built as a trade show display.

      A star is born. Seven-year-old Katie Whitiker looks like a pro as she hangs from a ladder at Harbourfront walking a tight rope or just clowning around in the March break program

      Yea. To Principal John Plumpton of Jane Junior High School in North York for trying to get more students to read books. Twice a week staff and students are given 50 minutes of the day just to read - anything they like. Some of them may discover that reading is a joy, even though it's a little more work than watching a TV scree. It's a nice idea.
