A stiff breeze blowing off Lake Ontario provided some measure of relief at times but for the most part the patient crowds were un- comfortable and there were many expressions of wonder at the fact the Queen and Philip managed to look so unruffled, After disembarking from the Britannia, the visitors were driven through a dusty, rundown section of waterfront to a jewel- like park where 70 crippled chil- dren waited for them, their wheelchairs set in the shade of three bushy elm trees. Spectators behind rope barriers pushed forward to get a look at the Queen and some children jeried out as they were crushed against the barrier. From there the royal motor- i Bs8f Rae = 8 ov Bpeee Te e gv ge rom George MacCorniac, St. Andrew's | Ist Row Ove Stirs Parli — cade curved slowly through the south-eastern section of the city on a 45-minute drive.
