A full house in the harbor. Twenty-one ships were berthed in Toronto Harbor this week; one of the busiest times of the soon-to-end shipping season. All piers but one were occupied as vessels loaded and unloaded everything from automobiles to canned pineapple. Ross Fitchett of the harbor commission says the port gets busier every year as winter closing looms-and it looks like we'll be going full speed from now on. Latest date the St. Lawrence Seaway closed was Dec. 13; in 1960; the earliest closing was Nov. 29; in 1956; 1960. There's no telling when it'll shut down this year.

Leitch which is owned by the Upper Lakes Shipping Co.; had just loaded 18;225 tons of grain from Thunder Bay at Maple Leaf Mills.

A political decision; not a planning one; was how the Ontario Municipal Board described Toronto City Council's bylaw limiting development until next September to a height of 45 feet and a floor space of 40;000 square feet in the area bounded by Spadina Ave.; the CPR tracks along Dupont St.; Sherbourne St.; and the Gardiner Expressway. The municipal board killed the bylaw. City may appeal.
