By RALPH CAMERON Guardian-Patriot staff Writer Buzzing rumors of the im- pending appointment of a new

lieutenant.governor to take over from Hon. F. alter Hyndman are keeping political and social circles in a mild uproar.

Apparently the field has na-r- rowed to two choices, with only faint rumblings being heard of possible alternates.

Among the guests attending the dinner were i e Kings County Liberal member of par- liament. John Mullally. and his wife; Mrs. Aden Mulligan. presi- dent of the P.E.I. Liberal Wom- en's Association; J. George Mac- Kay. MLA. and Frank Jardine. MLA.

Most commonly mentioned for the post are Alex McIsaac. lor‘al businessman and former minis- ter of labor in the last Liberal administration; and B. MacDonald. OBE, former Mayor of Charlottetown and provincial treasurer in the last Matheson government.

nominee is E. P. Foley. druggist of Summerside. and arm er member of the legislature.

On the basis of.what ls known, or surmised. at present it is thought the appointment will go to Mr. McIsaac. Recently. both he and Mr. MacDonald told t h e writer they would accept the

DEEMS IT HONOR

Mr. McIsaac said at the time: “The position of lieutenant gov- ernor is one of great honor and responsibility at all times, a n d undoubtedly will entail even greater responsibilities and du- ties during the forthcoming Cen- tennial term. I certainly deem it an honor to have my name considered."

Another factor involved. al- though not necessarily ironclad procedure. is the rule of the past that, whenever possible. the post alternated between Protestant and Roman Catholic nominees.

Both Mr. McIsaac and Mr. Fo-

ley are Roman catholics. Mr. MacDonald is a Protestant. Over the past years. one some- what unusual factor has entered into considerations of acceptance of the position and that is pecun~ iary loss generally suffered by incumb o n t s at Governm e n t ouse.

EXPENSES HEAVY

Expenses of holding the p 0 st have been heavy. due primarily to the many demands made on the lieutenant governor to pro- vide entertainment for distingu- ished visitors. The latter. in re. cent years. have included Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and Highness Prince Philip. Many other members of royalty have also been guests in the historic, old residence,

In addition to house guests. there is the even more pressing matter of constant pressure to receive special guests, such as visiting dignitaries, entertaining at formal receptions and b a 1 l s. and almost maintain ‘open house' for heads of delegations or var- ious convention groups.

At the present time. this as- sumes greater importance in view of the undoubtedly h e a vy demands which will be made on
