pull out and pass the truck was Mr. Mac- '

an error in Judgment."

.a-itempting to pass. if. in the im.

mlnence of collision. he makes the wrong choice. that would be merely an error ofiudsmont in respect of which criminal negu. gence could not be attributed to the driver.

His Liberal opponent, 1-Ion. F.A. Large. Minister of Education. had held an unofficial majority of one vote. In the recount yesterday Mr. Myers ended with a majority of tour votes.

The recount proceedings were adjourned to Saturday morning due to the necessity of caliiiig in the Deputy Returning Officers in Hope River and Kelly's Cross. HOWEVER it is not believed that the votes involved will make any difference in the final results as there are only two questionable ones.

Yesterday's proceeding were held in the Supreme Court room and lasted all day. Beginning in the morning. they were interrupt- ed briefly for luncheon and supper and continued until after 10 p.m. last night before the final poll was checked.

During the day many ballots were questioned by the represent- atives of the two parties. Those under dispute were improperly marked. Some of thom had just straight lines drawn in the voting space instead of the cross requir- ed by law. Others had check marks. inverted 'V'e' or other ir- regular signs. Many of the ballots had erasures or other indications: of voters apparently changing their minds.
