Weather Thursday: high 57,
low 24. Friday was on the cool

The NCNB ad in today's paper
is a correction of the one that ran
last Thursday.
President Carter vetoes an
anti-busing measure Thursday. It
was part of a $9 billion
appropriations bill for the
departments of State, Justice and
Commerce. Congress cannot
adjourn without adopting the
funding bill, because it’s needed
to keep the government operating
after Dec. 15th Even if Carter's
veto stands, it’s believed there
will be no trouble passing a
similar anti busing measure
when the new Congress convenes
in January. President-elect
Reagan already has said he
opposes integration busing.
Convictions of the Wilmington
10 convicted of charges growing
out of racial unrest in Wilmington
in 1971 were overturned

Another Flim-Flam
Tryon Police Chief Jerry Ross
reported that a Chimney Rock
woman was taken for $1300
Thursday afternoon near the
Tryon Plaza. Two black women
driving a white car managed to
get the money. The two women
got $1600 from a woman here on
Nov. 25th.
Chief Ross said to beware of
anyone trying to give you
something for nothing. They find
money which might have fallen
out of your car and then ask you
for money to put up while they
find out who the money belongs
to. The money disappears and so
do the women.
These con artists usually trick
elderly people, but anyone is a
potential victim according to
Chief Ross.
