He continued in these roles when Jack Pizzey succeeded Nicklin as Premier on 17 January 1968. Following the sudden death of Pizzey on 31 July 1968, the Governor Sir Alan Mansfield swore in Chalk as Premier on 1 August, pending the Country Party electing a new leader. They chose Joh Bjelke-Petersen, who succeeded Chalk after a week in office. Chalk continued as Treasurer and Leader of the Liberal Party until his resignation from parliament in 1976. == Seats held == * 1947–1950 East Toowoomba for the Queensland People's Party and the Liberal Party * 1950–1976 Lockyer for the Liberal Party (resigned) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gordon Chalk」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
