Notes Newscopy: "Truckloads of produce - like the melons shown above - began pouring into the new San Francisco Produce Terminal at Islais Creek at dawn this morning. The old market area, surveyed mournfully by Louis Crapsi, who's been shining shoes there for 25 years, is now deserted. The opening of the new terminal was preceded by a three-day festival, and more than 25,000 persons strolled through it Sunday, snacking on samples of free produce.".
