Here, Barry Sampson, 18, By THE CANADIAN PRESS If the high turnout Saturday and Monday at advance polis in Ottawa and Pembroke is any! indication, the turnout next Monday at regular polls might show Canadians really are in- terested in what party forms the next federal government. : Returning officers in the Ot- tawa Valley, where deer hunt- ing season opens election day,/| reported an unusually high) number of persons attended the advance polls, "I've never seen anything like it," said Returning Officer Thomas Davison of Carleton, most densely-populated riding in the Ottawa area. Mr. Davison said he believes more than 1,000--double the 1963 figure -- attended the 19 polls in his constituency. In Ottawa West, returning of- vice-president of the club, writes out a $1000 club- cheque for the red feather. Happily looking on is Rich- ard Fairthorne, manager of the Community Chest's cur- rent blitz for $306,300. The Has Apathy Become Care? Advance Polls Indicate So Manitoba -- "Extremely poor to light," was the consensus of returning officers throughout the province. Saskatchewan -- More than twice the 1963 turnout in Re- gina's six polls; 962 in Saska- toon, down from 1,079 in 1964 byelection; 240 voted in Swift Current; Moose Jaw-Lake Cen- tre: Lighter than 1963. Alberta -- "Fairly light' in Lethbridge; "quite light" in Macleod; Calgary North: 657 in 10 polls compared with 474 in 1963; Calgary South: 664 in nine polls, up from 561 in seven polls in 1963; Bow River: 68 voted.

And the 1963 break- off of the Quebec Ralliement des Creditistes from the na- tional Social Credit party left a number of scars, the effects of which have been compounded by squabbles among . Social Crediters since then. : Quebecers, usually vocal in expressing their political opin- ions, are keeping mum and this leaves the sensation of some- thing ominous. How will it ex- press itself federally? If the answer lies in a surge of support for the Liberals, then the as of hairbreadth Social Credit victories in 1963 are where observers will be looking for extra: Liberal seats.

FEAR CREDITISTES The Conservatives may bene- fit from the fear expressed by some organizers in the camp of the Union Nationale that the Creditistes will put on a con- centrated campaign for the next provincial election, Union Nationale, now the of- ficial provincial opposition, has taken no official stand in recent federal campaigns although its organizers had previously viewed the Creditistes with some warmth. Liberal Premier Jean Lesage has declared his support for the party in its federal battle but has taken no part in the cam- paign. | The 1963 election gave Social \Credit 20 seats in the province, lbut when the Creditistes broke away, they took 13 MPs as five remained with national Social Credit leader Robert Thompson and two crossed to Conservative benches, Real Caouette, whose son Gil- les is given a good chance of winning in Creditiste Labelle, began his campaign to the strains of press reports that his crowds were falling off. | But later campaign trips into the Lake St. John area, with its disgruntled farmers, saw big- ger, more-enthusiastic gather- ings. "The campaign's really hum- ming, majority is coming, sang Miss Murphy to the tune of Anything Goes. "Victory's nearing, despite the smearing."
