Original Toronto Star caption: A proud moment comes for Prime Minister and Mrs. Lester Pearson as, clasping hands, they stand to acknowledge the cheers of 9,000 Liberals in Ottawa's Civic Centre last night. They heard him suggest that his successor should be a combination of Abrahm Lincoln and Batman but got no hint of personal preference.
