J 1 1 1 Opnl'd f rem Page 3 A Look at Some of the Races Nine aspirants are vying for three seats in the Stale Hoaae of Representatives, with William C. Cay being the only incumbent. Horace Locklear elected not to run again, and David Parnell is challenging Sam R. Noble for the state senate seat. The 16th House District includes Robeson, Hoke and Scotland. Unfortunately, who ever wins big in Robeson County, because of its size, will win. The relatively small size of Hoke and Scotland Counties makes it almost impossible for candidates from either or these counties to win a seat in this race. Besides Gay, the candi dates are Tracy Britt, who has unsuccessfully run for a num ber of political positions in the last few years; Daniel H. DeVane, a county commis sioner from Hoke County; ?"John Hasty, a former mayor of Maxton; Sidney A. Locks, one of two Black candidates in the field, and a member of the Lumberton City Schools Board of Education; Bernard Lowiy, the only Indian in the race and a retired educator; Frank "Bishop" McDuffie. Jr., the other binak in the race and head of Laurinburg In stitute in Scotland County; V. Louise Sanderson, a white and the only lady in the race; and Tommy Wellington, a farmer from the Saddletree community. In the race for the one District Cwt Judge seat up for grabs this season, John S. Gardner, the incumbent and Chief District Court Judge, is being challenged by Gary Lynn Locfclear, an attorney and formerly a member of the district attorney's staff. The race has been marked by its lack of rancor. Both men seem to respect one another. But, as Locklear noted, "There is only one position available." Locklear seems to have the edge because of the positive campaign he has waged for the seat. He also is expected to be the overwhel ming choice of the Indians and Blacks, as he is an Indian himself. Long time Coroner Chal mers Biggs, is being contes ted by Edward Maultsby. Jr., a Black. One interesting fea ture in this race is that Maultsby's father unsuccess fully challenged Biggs a few years ago. A number of boards of education are holding clec tions this year, including Robeson County, Lumberton, and Fairmont. In the county system, three districts are up for grabs. In District 4 (which includes Burnt Swamp, Raft Swamp. Union and Pembroke) six candidates are vying for two seats, including Laymon Locklear and Lillian Faye Locklear, the incumbents, and challengers, Dr. Dalton Brooks, Bill Oxen dine, Walter Oxendine and William Lloyd Hunt. In Districts incumbent J.R. Musselwhite is being chall enged by Doris Wdkins. In District 2 incumbent Ronald Hammonds is being contested by Ronald Revels and Terry Smith. In Fairmont there are four seats available and 8 candi dates, including Jerri Bell, Channing P. Cunningham, Percy Hill. JU1 Hough, John Jackson, H. Biggs Johnson, Jack Hal Moody and H. Fay Sellers. Three seats are being con tested for the Lumberton City Board of Education. Can didates are Richard E. Britt, Grace Flynn, Henrietta R. Fox, A1 Kahn (presently ser ving as chairman). Cornette mOCKKKSftgfi Nettles and E.A. Sundy.^fe another incumbent. There are also four ameadCH ments on the ballot (secy? elsewhere for details); and a 9 ! vote for the Orrum Township u| for or against a taxation of 10c U on the one hundred dollar y evaluation for a fire protection n tax. P There are also 3 different j ^ races for the court of appeals. || (See elsewhere for particulars ij in this race). j f ? And, finally, there are three y county commissioner races, The one that has generated^ the most interest has been theM one in the Pembroke- Maxton-ajj Smiths District. Incumbent D Herman Dial, the 16 year ? political veteran is? being n challenged by Larry Broods N and Wyvis Ox en dine, both P educators. The race seems ,? too close to call. <.& In the St. Pauls District BillS Hern don, the incumbent, isS being challenged by Thomas jn Jones Jr. and Gurney S.ff Kinlaw. 9 Only the Lumberton Dis-^ trict up for election this yearfta has any Republican partici- C pants in the June 29 primary. B Incumbent Sammy Cox tuM being challenged in the De-P mocratic primary by Ray Cox,* not relation, and Sammy Lee ? Love. U The Republican Primary ^5 has Norm Morton being chall* 2S enged by Brigette O. Rundus. M As usual, the dominating H feature of the election is race. U As usual, it should be intc-C resting. We hope yotirC candidates win. See you the polls. P NEWS VIEWS | Dmitri F.
