During the noisy meeting, po- lice had unsuccessfully searched for a bomb following an anonymous telephone call, The device found later, one bomb-disposal officer, said, was complete and "had all the rea- son in the world to go off," It was discovered at.a point about 200 feet from the stage where the prime minister spoke to about 3,000 persons, CLOCK SET The explosive device, wrapped in brown. paper, con- sisted of a lon can of what police called 'an inflammable liquid most likely gasoline," a bag of black powder immersed in the liquid and connected with two wires; and, attached to the wires, a large battery and a clock mechanism with its hands missing. Police said they could not es- timate the danger range of the explosive, the primary effect of which. would have been incend- jary, or fire-making. The lack of hands on the clock meant police had no way of telling when the mechanism was set to go off, The mechanism "wasn't made with the finesse we often found in such things," said officer. "But still it was come plete," Last weekend three bombs were found in Quebec City, Po- . lice said they may have been the work of pranksters or of publicity-hungry separatist ter- rorists, fighting--was still in progress, They went about it quietly but didn't find anything.

In Quebec the odds are more than five-to-one for the Liberals; in Ontario three-and-a-half-to-one; and in the West more than two-to-one As for the New Democratic and Social Credit parties, their chances of winning most votes are practically nil. In the national total, 3 per cent of the voters name the NDP as probable winners and even less pick the Socreds Prior to the 1962 election, when a similar question was asked, there was a marked contrast in public thinking on which party would win, At that time, when the Conserva- tives were in power with a huge majority, voters split almost evenly as they looked into their crystal balls, Thirty-five per cent picked the Tories to win and 32 per cent named the Liberals, The question "REGARDLESS OF HOW YOU PLAN TO VOTE, Gas Walkout | , In2 Areas WINDSOR (CP) -- Supervi- sory personnel took over oper- ation of natural gas service here and in Sarnia as 211 service! employees of the Union Gas} Company went on strike early} today } The company said emergency! servicing of gas leaks, pressure} problems, overheating and ap- |pliances and equipment and no-, heat calls will be carried out.| {Routine service will be cur-/ tailed throughout Lambton and Mr. Douglas had the night'sjiiament placed the national in-\jooted to.win two seats and the/Mayor in 20 years early today,/Humphrey and Senator Robert He proposed "creation of a bet-/F, Kennedy. | Republican Governor Nelson |A.
