Original Toronto Star caption: Election victory brought Ontario Premier John Robarts a kiss from his wife - who then turned and told reporters with a laugh: We haven't done this in quite a while. Premier has been on campaign trail around province almost solidly for past two months. He faced a tougher fight this time in his own riding, polling less than 50 per cent of the votes cast, but still won by 3,500-vote margin.
