Camp- bell, 32, into power as Canada's youngest premier. The deferred balloting in the two - member constituency, brought about by the death of a Liberal candidate May 26, snapped a two-party stalemate and toppled the government of Premier Walter R. Shaw, 78, the nation's oldest provincial chief. The standings: 1966 1962 Liberals Iv fy Conservatives 15 19 Total 32-30 "My reaction is one of disap- pointment,""' Mr. Shaw said after Liberals Daniel J. Mac- Donald and Bruce L. Stewart swept to victory by large ma- jorities. INSERT--Heading Provincial The Liberal victory raised im- mediate questions. When would Mr. Campbell an- nounce his cabinet? "Within reply. takeover plans? "Well, I think we could get together the first of next week, don't you Alex? asked the ousted premier. "Yes, I think that would be fine," replied the premier-elect. Mr. Campbell, whose father Thane L. Campbell was Liberal premier from 1936 to 1943 and now is chief justice of the P.E.I. Supreme Court, was excited and at the same time deadly serious about his new post. "On the one hand I am over- joyed with the results in First Kings today,"' he said. "On the other hand, forming a govern- ment means a tremendous re- sponsibility." In a television interview, the Liberal leader said it is time to get down to business of gov- ernment after "a long and ardu- ous campaign" and admonished Islanders "'not to continue the election for the next: four or five years.' HINTS AT RETIREMENT Mr. Shaw said he would be in evidence in the next session of the legislature as opposition leader and "would keep an eye on the new premier," However, he hinted at eventual retire- ment. "I'd like to putter around my yard. I'd like to get home two or three weeks," was the When 'would' Mr. Shaw and Mr. Campbell meet to discuss Two Seats Give Power To Youngest Premier Mr. Shaw, who led his party to power in 1959 at an age when most people contemplate the ease of retirement, broken even with his young rival in the May 30 election, The two parties, the only ones contesting the election, wound up in a 15-seat deadlock and consequently directed the politi- cal spotlight on the 2,411 elig- ible voters in Kings 1st. The enfranchised residents of the fishing and farming con- stituency responded by giving Mr. MacDonald, Liberal coun- cillor candidate, a 207-vote ma- jority over Conservative Peter MacAulay and Mr. Stewart, a 158-vote margin over Conserva- tive Keith MacKenzie in the race for the assemblyman's seat. Mr. MacKenzie was the sec- ond public works and highways minister to suffer defeat within six weeks. He was appointed to the cabinet shortly after the de- feat of J. Philip Matheson in arene 2nd in the May 30 elec- ion. Provincial Takeover Plans To Be Settled At Meetings Premier Louis J, Robichaud of New Brunswick had been the youngest premier in Canadian history, taking office July 12, 1960, a little more than four months before his 35th birthday on Oct, 21, ' Premier Ernest, Manning of Alberta took office June 1, 1943, about 344 months before his 35th birthday.
