Kelly, an Oshawa lawyer, was one of four people interviewed in town Friday by Keith Davey, the Liberals na- tional organizer, The others, all beaten at the polls by Michael Starr, MP, were Norman Cafik, Dr. Claude Vipond and John Lay. Mr, Kelly said today he had no comment, Ronald Spyoule? \president of the Liberal hssaiation of On- tario Riding, s today that all four are definitely interested in| running in the next election. He) expects a decision from each Pauline Jewett To Speak Here! Pauline Jewett, Liberal mem- ber of parliament for North- umberland, will be guest speaker tomorrow night at a meeting of the Oshawa Young Liberal Association. Miss Jewett, a direct descen- dantof Northumberland County's first settlers, was a university professor in. the United States and at Queen's University and Carleton College before entering politics in 1962. She is a member of the board of trustees of Queen's; vice- president of the Exchange for Political Ideas in Canada; chair- man of the Parliamentary As- sociation of World Federalists and a member of the executive council of the Canadian Political Association.

Mr. Sproule said that Mr. Davey did not come to Oshawa to warn of an early election. "He wasn't here to push panic button," he added, A two-time loser to Mr. Starr, John Lay said today that his chances of winning the nomina- tion are "reasonable good," Mr. Lay also stated that he ex- pects an election "fairly soon." The Pickering Village insur- ance agent first lost out to Mr. Starr in a 1952 by-election and in the general election held in the following year. "IT am weighing my profes- sional and family commitments against the challenge of repre- senting the riding," said Dr. the! House of Commons in 1957 and 1958, "This is a decision I will not jmake until all the issues have been weighed,"' he stated. He also stated that a general elec- tion is expected this year. "Some say in two months, |some say in October, but no- body knows for sure." Mr. Cafik, who stood in the 1962 and 1963 federal elections, said today that his chances of gaining the nomination "are aw- fully good, although I have not yet made up my mind. Let's put it this way, I'm willing to be drafted. "In the two elections I polled more votes than any previous Liberal candidate against Mr. Starr," he added. The candidates were first in- terviewed by Mr. Davey and with a general political discus- sion, The association president will head a six-member' committee to arrange the nomination meet- ing. No location for the meeting has yet been established. T. D. Thomas, chairman of the joint Ontario South and Osh- awa Ridings associations of the New Democratic Party, said to- day that no date has been set for a nomination meeting. "We have two or three people who would make good candidates," he said. A policy meeting will be held May 1, said Mr. Thomas, to re- view the situation. He added, "my information is that there will not be an election until the fall so our nomination meeting will not be held as early as we had planned."
