Sharpe Replaced
AS County Leader

O. J. Sharpe, ByeSVille plastiCs
manufacturer whose feud with
former Governor Frank j
Laushce made the front pages of
Ohio newspapers two years ago,
was defeated Saturday in his bid
for reelection to the chairman
ship of the. Guernsey county
Democratic executive committee.
The new chairman is Ed F.
Millhone, a farmer near Cumber-
land, who received 20 votes to II
for Sharpe at the meeting held in
Cambridge.
The controversy which led to
Millhone's election has centered
largely around Sharpe's support
of Ray T. Miller in the recent
primary election. The chairman
had predicted that Miller would
easily carry Guernsey county
whereas in reality Lausche won
the county by 81, Millhone was
a Lausche supporter.
John MCPeek of Cambridge
