been reappointed to the office by sher-
IF Ray Sexton and Will take charge Of

ton last year for nomination as the
candidate for sheriff.
He was defeated by Val Schoelch who
was defeated In the general election by
Sheriff Sexton, q Republican and one OF
the leaders Of the Republican party in

cratic deputy by a Republican sheriff
has never before been known to have
