Liberty; 1W RICHMONbfiHILL, ONTARIO THURSDAY, MAY 17th,1934 nl] {awn/1L ,{fl’w Scarboro’s Reeve Liberal Nominee REEVE HARRY SANDERS OF SCARBORO WILL OPPOSE PREM- IER HENRY IN EAST YORK At one of the most largely attended Liberal conventions ever held in East York riding Harry T. Sanders, Reeve of Scarboro, was selected as candi- date to contest the riding in the com- ing provincial elections. He will op- pose Premier George Henry who was nominated again as the Conservative candidate in the constituency. In accepting the nomination Reeve Sanders said he appreciated the re- sponsibility of carrying the banner of Liberalism in this election and said that while the responsibility was great it was also a privilege and a duty to fight for the interests of the people. His experience in the muni- cipal affairs of Scarboro had given him an opportunity to see the malad- ministration which had been going on in Queen’s Park under Mr. Henry and he was convinced that the best in- terests of the people would be served by a change of government. Lyman Kennedy of Agincourt, pres-‘ ident of the Riding Association, pre- sidled and along with secretary E. J. Stiver conducted the nomination pro- ceedings. Every polling sub-division. in the riding was represented and the hall in Danforth Park school was far from capable of accomodating all those who sought admission to listen ‘to the addresses. Those nominated included T. Harry Sandlers the successful candidate, ex- councillor Joe Vernon of East York Township, Frank Bage of East York Twp., H. A. Sanders of Stouffville, and Mar Reesor of Markham. The last two mentioned withdrew and on the first ballot Reeve Sanders was chosen. ' Mitchell F. Hepburn, Ontario Lib- eral leader, and Arthur G. Slaght K. C., delivered addresses which were re- ceived with enthusiasm by the great audience.
