Wheeler in Monday's city elec-
tion, as Mayor.
Wheeler has stated that he
would take legal steps to de-
termine the validity of the ordi-
nance.
THE ORDINANCE was
prompted by the fact that the
city Board of Canvasers has not
yet certified Monday's election,
and should the Board not com-
plete certification by midnight,
Sunday, "the city will be wth-
out a legislative body Monday,"
according to city attorney Edwin
Pear.
According to the city charter,
the election must be certified
by the Board within 14 days fol-
lowing the election before the
newly-elected council members
or Mayor may preside in office.
Should the City Board of Can-
vasers fail to certify the elec-
tion, the certification process
will then be relayed to the
County Board of Canvasers.
INCUMBENT Councilwoman
Carol Jones (D-Second Ward)
hotly contested the ordinance:
"There has not been shown any
indication that the Board of
Canvasers will not certify the
election," she said. "By taking
this action it looks bad. It looms
like you (the GOP) have already
ordered the Board of Canvasers
not to certify the election."
Councilman Louis Belcher (R-
Fifth Ward) countered Jones'
statement, asserting that "13
or 14 ballot boxes at the armory
have had their seals broken."
He added that the newly-in-
stated preferential voting sys-
tem used in the mayoral race
has also caused additional prob-
lems in ballot counting.
NORRIS, who did not seek re-
election in Monday's race, op-
posed the ordinance stating, "I
don't want to be on this council
any longer." Democrat Liz Tay-
lor won Norris' First Ward
council seat Monday.
Norris also brought conflict of
interest charges against Steph-
enson, claiming the M a y o r
would stand to gain financially
if the ordinance passed.
Stephenson then proposed an
amendment to the resolution,
later attributing it to Henry,
which stipulated thatcomp en-
sation would not be granted to
either him or the council mein-
bers during the extended term.
If the Board of Canvases
certifies the election before mid-
night Sunday, the effects of theE
ordinance will not be felt.

DURING the process of count-
ing the second preference votes,
it was discovered that some
ballot boxes were improperly
sealed. This is grounds, ac-
cording to some Republicans,
for a challenge.E
The Board of Canvassers,
meanwhile, will meet today to
try and sort everything out and
decide whether or not to certify
the election.
sional leaders there are "no
private agreements" between
the United States and South
Vietnam.
Ford met with Democratic
and Republican leaders of the
Senate less than an hour after
his press secretary, Ron Nes-
sen. said former President Rich-
ard Nixon had assured Saigon'
faders in "confidential ex-
changes" prior to signing the
1973 Paris peace agreements
that the United States would
"react vigorously" to any vio-;
lations by Hanoi of the accords.
BY IMPLICATION, Nessen in-
dicated Nixon might have been'
prepared to intervene militarily
but for congressional passage
of a law that ruled out a return
of U.S. forces to Vietnam. His
statement came one day after
Sen. Henry Jackson (D-Wash.)
contended there had been "sece-
ret agreements" between the
Nixon administration and South
Vietnam.
In neighboring C a m b o d i a,
Communist-led Khmer Rouge in-
surgents penetrated P h n o m
Penh's northern defense line at
Stung Kambot s e v e n miles
north of the city, but field re-
torts said government forces
had driven the rebels from the
market at the center of Kom-
pong Speu, 30 miles to the west.
The reports said insurgents
drove defenders from a former
combat police fort and an
abandoned refugee camp at
Stung Kambot, then dug in and
were under counterattack by
government troops.
