About 200 screaming, laughing, flute- Governor - General Vanier chats with a boy at the tradi- tional Ottawa Boys' Club Prime Minister Pearson said Saturday it is necessary '"'to root out the exception" to high political standards in Canada. Speaking at a banquet mark- ing the installation of a new chancellor at Waterloo Luth- eran University, Mr. Pearson, speaking. without a prepared text, hit out at the "very few" persons in Canadian political life who do not live up to the paest standards of political e. "Even a few departures from these high standards can create doubt and suspicion," he said, leaving politicians open "to guilt by association. "It is necessary to root out the exception who doesn't live up to these standards." Mr. Pearson's party has been under opposition fire in the Commons over allegations that two executive assistants to cabi- net ministers attempted to bribe and coerce a Montreal lawyer in connection with bail for a man involved in a narcotics case. The government has ap- pointed a judge to head an in- quiry, Mr, Pearson spoke at the ban- quet in the evening following afternoon ceremonies installing Senator W. Ross Macdonald as chancellor of the liberal arts university. The prime minister was awarded an honorary doc- tor of laws degree during the special convocation.

There is a temptation to yield to this pressure, he said. This made the necessity to ad- here to strict standards even more important. "Those that don't live up to these standards, and they are very few, are to be rejected," Mr. Pearson said. This means "far more than just acting within the law," the prime minister said. The price of maintaining high standards in politics "is the same as the price of maintaining liberty-- eternal vigilance."

NEW CRISIS IN ITALY? had served in more than a dozen post-war cabinets, twice as premier, before his election as chief of state in May, 1962. SEEK SUPPORT All the parties are preparing feverishly to line up support for their candidates in the presiden- tial election. The contest threatened to widen dangerous cracks in Moro's coalition. His own Chris- tian Democrats are so badly di- vided on a successor there is speculation they may go into the vote with Moro unable to im- pse party discipline. A number opposed to Moro were favoring former premier Amintore Fanfani. He pioneered the centre-left concept of work< ing with Socialists but is against Moro. Others in the party were speaking up for Interior Minis- ter: Paolo Emilio Taviani and still others for former premier Giovanni Leone, for many years ROME (AP)--President An- tonio Segni resigned for reasons of health Sunday night and Italy's political parties are searching for a fifth president for the Italian republic. The Senate and Chamber of Deputies will meet in joint ses- sion Dec. 16 to elect a new chief of state. It could mean a new crisis for Premier Aldo Moro's Segni, 73, like Moro a Chris- tian Democrat, said that, be- cause of the effects of the cerebral stroke he suffered Aug. 7, he could not fulfill his presi- dential duties. The stroke had left him partly paralyzed and with impeded speech. Segni was the first Italian president to resign and the first not to complete the normal seven-year term. He relin- quished his mandate 27 months after he was elected chief of state. A medical report. said Segni President Segni Resigns president of the Chamber and a renowned mediator. The three other coalition par- ties, the Socialists, Democratic Socialists and Republicans, were reported convinced there must be no Christian Demecrat president. They want Foreign Minister Giuseppe Saragat, leader of the Democratic Social- fSis. If elected, he would be Italy's first socialist: president. The outcome holds important implications for this NATO na- tion.
