BEARDED CANDIDATE Dr. James Edward Rundle has a beard no more, He had it removed yesterday in his King st. w. medical office by Steve Salmers, a city barber. The Indepen- dent candidate will face voters in these waning days of the campaign with a naked chin. Dr. Rundle, a former physician to folks at Hillsdale Manor, said on a recent visit there none of his former patients recog- nized him. He said this per- suaded him to have the beard removed. MR. AND MRS. JAMES KIGHT, a young Oshawa couple, talk over campaign events with Conservative candidate Michael Starr at a recent political gathering. Mr. Starr has put the ac- cent on personal contact this time, with few speeches before crowds. This is Mr. Starr's seventh election in the 13 years he has held Ontario Riding and he says he has shaken thousands of hands and has met more people in the riding than in any other campaign.
