Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Returned Tory rebel George Hees was not without his supporters at the rally. On his way in to the arena he walked by two young men handing out ''Dump Dief'' pamphlets. They were signed ''Young Canadians for George Hees.'' But when Diefenbaker turned his back on Hees as he arose to speak a heckler shouted: ''Stab him in the back, George.'' Hees left for Northumberland right after the rally.
