This defeated the referendum by 42 votes which are necessary to give it the 60-per cent acceptance for passing. - At Tuesday night’s council meeting Mayor Colin Maddocks the defeat of this referendum noting after January a 60 per cent approval would be suffi- cient to carry such a refer, endum.

Street light referendum in Robson was passed, receiving 29 votes in favor and none against, Ballot Recount on Kinnaird ‘Mayoralty Strong Possibility A recount of votes for the mayoralty race in Kinnaird appears to be a strong possibility. At Tuesday night’s council meeting town clerk Allen Selbie stated he had not received notification from the county court but he understood a recount of the votes cast for George Bondaroff and G. S. Rust would be requested. George Bondaroff, following Saturday’ 's election, was | declared winner, having 511 votes over Mr. Rust's 507. Mr. Rust was absent from Tuesday's meeting having travelled to the coast. Prior to his departure he told the Castlegar News he was considering a recount stating he felt he owed this much to the people that supported him and worked so hard on his behalf. Mr. Selbie told council Tuesday there was a five week-day period during which a recount could be requested. He also stated a judge may look at a ballot in a different light than the returning officer. He said he has always accepted a ballot marked in a manner that the voter's intent was clearly indicated. During Saturday's count he said two votes were referred to him which he accepted. “As it turns out,” he said, “these two votes were one for Mr. Bondaroff and the other for Mr. Rust.” Full Slate of Officers Brings New Life fo Local Chamber “I am not going to see the chamber die, I cannot.” These are the words of Mary Anderson: spoken. last Thursday night when she gave her to serve. as president of the Castlegar and District Chamber ‘of Commerce for another, * be’ the’ first: etal i state- ment he had heard.
