Original Toronto Star caption: On the national campaign trail for the first time in seven years, former prime minister John Diefenbaker gives a rousing speech to more than 700 Conservatives in a hall in Hamilton last night. After an hour and a quarter of vintage Dief oratory, he had every listener on his feet applauding. I even amaze myself sometimes, Diefenbaker had told newsmen just before speech.
