Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Stanfield - with a warning - bids farewell as leader. About 2;400 Progressive Conservatives gave out-going leader Robert Stanfield their undivided attention at Ottawa Civic Centre last night when he warned them not to ignore Quebec; not to drive the party to the right and not to polarize the country. Despite his harshlyworded farewell he received a standing ovation from people who'll be called on to replace him tomorrow. Before departing; Stanfield suggested that any party member failing to support new leader be drummed out.
