I questioned the legality of conducting interviews of candidates in executive session rather than in an open public meeting. I was informed that the use of executive sessions was perfectly legal. Upon writing to the Attorney General and describing the situation, I received a reply that stated it was illegal to consider or fill such a position, except in open public meeting. I informed the mayor of this letter several Mondays ago and the very next night, in special session, the council filled the vacancy. One can only speculate on the reasons for such prompt action after more than four months of inactivity. At the June meeting I informed the council of the letter from the Attorney General and ex pressed the opinion that they had done a disservice to themselves, the public and the person they had selected by proceeding in an illegal manner. I requested that they rectify the situation by making public @Ri'(k TyCer downtowner edenton *"-' orn y^\ .^tUhMk '.' | It's an opportunity you shouldn't miss l A chance I <0 save on fevefsl,- (l * coats for fair or foul weather. £M jf‘ £o‘: / Just a flip of the UlfjM end your coat changes from fe ’r A a P°Pl' n outer S HB " tfii a toasty warm corduroy t JR .7 f J I inner shell.

After the meeting several council members wanted to deny they met in executive session and said the in terviews did not constitute “considering” the filling of the vacancy. It seems only a few years ago that a call went out to the community for good, clean, open, honest government. Since that time, six of the seven elected positions have seen a turnover. It is somewhat ironic that the reformers of yesterday, once established in power, so quickly em brace the abuses of power they so piously denounced in the past. One can only conclude that the ancient saying “Power corrupts” is alive and well in Edenton in the 1980’s. Gil Burroughs Never leave a key under the doormat or hidden anywhere else outside. . Around The Chowan County Farms by J. Michael Williams County Extension Chairman Peanuts in Chowan County got off to a slow start because of the dry weather, but since the rain of the past several weeks, they have been growing rapidly. Warm days and nights with plenty of moisture are good for plant growth and potential yields but it is also the ideal condition for the various fungal diseases of peanuts. The earliest disease to occur on peanuts is leaf spot. This does not usually occur until late June but, because of the weather, it has already gotten a start in this area. Leaf spot is spread in the air by spores which will fall everywhere including all peanut fields. What happens next depends on condition where they fall. If it is warm and miost they will ger minate and move into the leaf causing a light brown spot surrounded by a yellow halo. If conditions are un favorable they will sit and wait for conditions to change. Control of this disease depends on getting the fungicide on the leaf before the fungus grows into the leaf. There are a number of fungicides available for leaf spot control, but it is recommended that the copper sulfur be used for all treatments other than the first and the last. This will help suppress spider mite population that can become a problem later in the season. Begin two-week treat ments when you see leaf spot in the field or no later than late June. Leaf spot is present in many fields at this time. An alternative to a two week spray schedule is to monitor the weather and spray when conditions are favorable with each spray giving control for 10-14 days. To help with this method a leaf spot forecaster has been installed in Chowan County. This instrument monitors temperature and relative humidity and gives a spray or no spray recom mendation every day. It will apply most directly to the field in which it is located but you can use its 124 Hr.
