THE ONLY § candidate

West Van Mayor Derrick
Humphreys is the en-
dorsation of the voters on
polling day.

running for a third term as
mayor in the November 20
clections, was conspicuous
by his absence at Wed-
nesday's e¢endorsation

meeting of the West Van
Electors Association and did
not offer his name for the

Asked to comment, he

said he did not seek: the’

endorsation of “any par-

made himself available for
election by all the voters on
November 20.
