Original Toronto Star caption: Anecdotes and attacks alternated in the speech John Diefenbaker made yesterday to Candian club audience that overflowed the Royal York Concert Hall and cheered him on every occasion. For two hours, it was 1958 again, 80-year-old Dief was the Chief, and nothing he said could possibly be wrong.
