WOMEN GONE FROM COUNCIL
Although the election provided some records, especially for the amount of electors being able to vote, the turnout was only 56%, which is about average for council polls.
For the first time since 1952 the council will be all-male when they assemble on May 30th. Councillor Mrs. Huckvale did not seek re-election and councillor Mrs. Alford (Ind) lost her seat in Abbey ward. But there wasn’t enough women candidates to realistically have any chance of gaining representation on the council.
Labour put much effort into this election but all their eight candidates failed to to be elected.
There will be three new faces on the council. The youngest member being 25 year-old Mr. Wilson, whose father has just been elected onto the County Council.
The honour of being ‘father’ of the council will now be shared between Mr Smalley and Mr Watling, who were both elected in 1934. They succeed Mr. Bostock who did not seek re-election and had served continuously since 1928.
