The appointment was announced
few minutes after the board OF

from which township the commits
SiOner should come. | arrived at
the township by going through the
records which show that Chad
bOurn was last represented on the

Mr.. Calvin Small of Fair Bluff

experience while serving as a

should be of value to him in his
new capacity. also felt it incum-
bent to appoint someone as quick
