you the question of Owen future status booze-wise will almost be decided Actually the final vote needn't be cast until 7 pm so if you live in Owen Sound and yet eerriad your franchise you have until that time to do so As far as the outcome is concerned no predictions The result of any election is difficult to predict and all the hot feelings surrrpunding this one make it doubly tough Whatever the result no one can say it hasn't been an interesting campaign even a little amusing at times The election did not catch the imagination of out-of-town media this time around Yours truly did a piece on it for other Southam newspapers across the country and one or two out-of-town reporters made the scene But there was not the national publicity that marked the last vote in 1968 Liquor questions are also going to be decided Sept 13 in Fort Elgin with cocktail and dining lounges on the ballot The town already has beverage rooms The real crunch in that content is going to be in the areas that the town annexed from Saugeen Township Voters in some of these sections will face up to nine questions to bring their corner of town into line with the rest of Port Elgin The Fort Elgin vote should also be an interesting one The Douglas Point nuclear power complex has had a major influence on the town and the look of the population has changed drastically in recent years In other political fields the Conservatives have things in hand in the ridings of Grey-Simcoe and Bruce in preparation for a federal election with candidates nominated in both The NDP also has chosen its standard bearers for the two ridings This leaves only the ruling Liberal party without an official candidate although in Bruce it is bound to be incumbent Boss Whicher The fact the party in power has not had a nominating convention in either riding may be indicative of how soon we can expect PM Trudeau to call the not until fall And a prediction 44 56 Low Temperature 1:00 am Saturday By PAUL ROHAN Staff Reporter The
