After three hours of deliberation, the Board of Representa¬ tives at 12 noon today concluded that the election for student body president held yesterday was legal according to parliamen¬ tary procedure and that the election of Don Mansfield shall stand. The protest was registered late last night on the grounds that Mansfield’s 698 votes against Eby’s 557 and Rockwood’s 501 did not constitute a majority. A recount for the positions of chief justice and A. M. S. treasurer is scheduled to take place at 2 o’clock today. Don Mansfield yesterday was elected president of the Pasadena junior college student body for the coming semester when he regis¬ tered a close decision over his two opponents, Gordon Eby and Bob Rockwood. Although Mansfield votes fell far short of the majority ordinarily required, there will be no run-off election, according to Trevor Gardner, chief justice, be¬ cause of lack of time. With over 1800 votes cast, the ballot was said the largest in the school’s history. In every instance the races were very close, with the race for chief justice between Fred Good and Carl Deisenroth being so close that no official decision was forthcoming from the Election Board. A recount for the office will be held this afternoon. Race Tight The new student body president was the only independent candidate on the ballot.
