## Opinion text

PER CURIAM:
We decline to enforce the Board’s order requiring the company to bargain with the union because we conclude that the union was improperly certified. At the election the Board excluded four ballots which were blank on their face but which had the word “no” written on their back. The ballots should have been counted since they clearly manifested the voters’ intention not to be represented by the union. NLRB v. Titche-Goettinger Co., 433 F.2d 1046 (5 Cir. 1970). When those ballots are counted the union lost the election.
Enforcement denied.
