Whftaker Takes Oath In Wallace Earl Whitaker, a former local police chief, was sworn into office as mayor of Wallace last Thursday. Whitaker succeeds Melvin Cording, who has served as town board member or mayor for 24 years. District Judge Stephen Williamson of Kenansville gave the oath of office. Cording was first elected to the town board of com missioners in 1947 and served until 1957 when he was first elected as mayor. He served as mayor from 1957 to a967. He was again elected mayor in 1979 and served in that post until Thursday night. Whitaker became the sixth person to hold the mayor's seat in some 40 years. The others have been Aubrey Harrell, Willard Hoffler, T.J. ' "Tommy" Baker, who left *-office to serve in the state -."legislature, and Charles ?m. Farrior. Whitaker served as Wal lace police chief for 23 vears before joining the Duplin County Sheriff's Depart ment, from which he retired about two years ago. Also sworn into office were incumbent town commis sioners Charles Blanchard, N.H. Carter and Arnold Duncan, who were unop posed for re-election in No vember. Before the swearing-in ceremony, the board, under Cording, completed old busi ness. The board awarded the contract for construction of Brown's lift station, part of the sewage project in South western Wallace, to T.A. Loving & Co. of Goldsboro on ,a bid of $45,850. The com pany became the apparent contract winner for improve ments to the city's sewage treatment plant earlier in the week. Other bidders on the lift station were the Sneeded Co. of Wilmington at $47,352 and H.V. Allen Co. of Greens boro, $77,809. David Criser of Henry von Oesen & Associates of Wil mington said work should be completed in about 90 days. He said the station will serve 40 percent of the city. The new board re-elected Duncan as mayor pro tern. It reappointed Blanchard as cossmisaiuner of streets and recreation, David Jordan as public safety commissioner, Cart er as sanit ation and utili ties commissioner, and Luther Powell as library and town properties commis sioner. The board agreed the town's top priority is de veloping some new water wells to tap a different aquifier than the one from which the town's 10 present wells pump water. The present wells have the capa city to draw down the level of water in the aquifer and cannot sustain a long period of maximum output. Engi neers have recommended the town seek a well field toward the southeast, in the direc tion of Chinquapin. Because their eyes are on the sides of their heads, most birds have excellent fields of vision. MOW you CAN REALiy I GO PLACES WITH A ud>24 CARD! .
