three separate sketches of Jean Drapeau, reading election material, talking on the phone and three-quarter view, On a separate sheet attached to an earlier drawing is a brief description of Macperson's meeting with Mr. Drapeau. About this drawing, he says: Mayor Drapeau looking thru' more election material. The Mayor allowed me in to sketch him and (apart from general news conference) as far as I know I'm the only outsider that has been granted a personal visit in present crisis. He got a great belly laugh by introducing me to one of his functionaires as the cartoonist from the Telegram., We didn't talk about the 'troubles' -- but joining him in the elevator he was totally absorbed in reading the latest developments in the Newspaper (Montréal-Matin). A very human and courteous man. [troubles were FLQ crisis]
