This picture is believed to have been taken about 1901 Jack won't run Huron -Middlesex MPP Jack Riddell will not be among those contesting the Ontario Liberal party leadership, which will become vacant through the retirement of Dr. Stuart Smith. "No sir," Riddell said emphatically when reached at his Toronto office yesterday by the T -A to see if he was considering entering • the race as Smith's suc- cessor. While noting that he had been approached by several people to consider contesting the leadership, the Dash- wood area farmer said he may have considered it if he was 10 years younger. "At 50 it would be quite a rat race," he said. He said he has some ap- preciation what the party leaders go through and he isn't interested in such a hectic life. He also indicated he has not yet thrown his support behind any of the announced candidates to date, favoring to wait and see who throw their hats into the ring. Riddell predicted the leadership convention would probably be held at the same time as the party's annual meeting in March.
