"Khrushchev" In Canada Nikita Khrushchev arrives in Niagara Falls and touches off a wave of startled confusion. Not the real Mr. K, just an amazingly life-like wax image, part of a gallery of the famous and infamous being opened here. Eerily smiling "Nikita Khrushchev", in back seat of open convertible, rides up to Canadian Customs stop. Man in uniform waves the car through. Box or crate with lettering on it: "Soldier (Simcoe), Gen. Brock, Roosevelt, Dillinger, John Booth, Marc Anthony, Father Hennepin", and others. Wax dummy is removed from crate. Wax dummy of man wearing a cloak (Father Hennepin, says the VO) stands at overlook for Niagara Falls. "Puzzled" onlooker scratches his head for the camera.
