Thomp- son, in successfully forming two new branches in West Pickering and North Pickering, also for her work in connection with the newly organized Whitby Branch of which Dr. J. B. Da- vies is the president. LONDON (CP) -- Now that Britain has gone "bonkers," Quintin Hogg has returned to the practice of law--but not quietly, no sir. This most colorful of former Tory ministers has reacted with gusto to delighted yells of "bon- kers" from Labor members 'in the new Parliament. The appearance of Hogg on swearing-in day was like the passage of a supersonic aircraft creating a. continuous -- sonic boom, only that with Hogg it was "bonkers - bonkers - bon- kers!"" and the erstwhile Lord Hailshaw replied: "bonkers!"' Hogg's pre-election comment that anyone voting Labor Oct. 15 would be bonkers will prob- ably, live as a sort of classic in political sayings and no one seems more pleased than the irrepressible honorable gentle- man himself. « Most Canadians would in- terpret the* comparatively new slang term as something like "nutty" but the former educa- tion minister has carefully ex- plained to his bishop, of all people, that it refers not to in- telligence quotient but to relia- Miss R. A. Hawkes, education and publicity committee chair- man reported that the work for her committee included special meetings, films, concerts, panel discussions, teas, booths at Fairs and special events.

Mervyn Steckwood, Anglican Bishop of Southwark, had criticized racial prejudice in the election. Hogg, self-des- cribed "constituent" bishop, came back: "If I may offer a suggestion to the bishop, when he next differs from the electors gen- erally or in any particular con- stituency, it would be better if he referred fo them simply as 'ponkers,' an animadversion which, if I may say so, refers neither to their 'I. Q.'.. . nor to the state of their souls but to the reliability of their judg- ment." With the Tories out of office, Hogg now is Opposition spokes- man on education in Sir Alec Douglas - home's shadow cab- inet, losing the £5,000 ($15,000) ministerial salary. One of Britain's most famed lawyers, Hogg, 57, didn't have long to wait for a case when he returned to his law office. He was retained by Randolph Churchill in an action brought by the London Daily Sketch against the son of Sir Winston and the Weekly Spectator. Ran- dolph is a spectator cctumnist. Several other former minis- the City, London's financial dis- trict.. They include Edward Heath, 48, Sir Keith Joseph, 46, Robert Carr, 49, and Anthony Barber, who. lost his seat. At least one Labor party fig- ure resigned his City post to join Prime Minister Harold Wil- son's government. He is the Earl of Longford, 58, who be- came leader of the House of of. thelrords Latins Light Up Inside Mouths.
