Mr. Orde will take over the position of deputy- peeve for the next term left vacant by Mr. Bruce Beare, when he declined nomination. Less than half of the eli- gible voters cast their ballots. Of « total of 1,691 names on the voters list, 845 turned out. The percentage was 49.97 compared to 53.17% in 1968.
