'63 Program, New Directors Will be Determined Thursday Greater Morehead City chamber of commerce members will select three directors Thursday night and determine the course of the cham ber for 1963. They will meet at 8 p.m. in the municipal building, Morehead City. fifty-nine members had been no minated for director by noon Sat urday, and additional nominations will be tabulated until Thursday morning, according to P. W. Bul lock, manager of the chamber. At the meeting, the names of the nominees mentioned most as direc tor possibilities will be presented Voting will be by written ballot. Original plans called for present ing six names, but because of a three-way tie for the sixth position, eight were in top spot Saturday morning. They were the following: Ken neth Wagner, Tony Seamon Jr., J. R. Sanders, A. B. Cooper, William B. Chalk, Shelby,Freeman, G. E. Sanderson, and Bud Dixon. Mr. Bullock intends to contact them prior to Thursday to deter mine whether they will be willing to serve as director. Retiring directors are Dr. Hat cher, Dr. Russell Outlaw and Gar land Scruggs. Nominations for director will be accepted from the floor and per sons eligible to vote are those who have paid their dues for 1962. A review of the 1962-63 program will be presented by A. B. Cooper, William Davies, Ben Alford and Mr. Bullock. The meeting will be open to chamber members and the general public. Mr. Bullock Said Saturday, “A discussion of the chamber pro gram will be invited and the board will welcome all comments from the floor. President Hatcher and the board of directors ask for a large attendance by members and the public at this important annual meeting.’’ Following is a summary of the proposed 1963 program which will be discussed: 1. Reduce chamber staff to one capable female employee on full time basis as chamber office secre tary at a salary above that now paid the secretary but less than the manager’s salary. 2. Place full responsibility for of fice routine, correspondence, and interview time with the secretary. 3. Place responsibility for super vision of the secretary with the chamber of commerce president or with the chairman of tourist and convention activity. 4. Close the Fort Macon hotel of fice and for the winter months (December through March), let the secretary work from a desk and phone in a public building and with a chamber of commerce telephone extension in her home in addition to her private phone. 5. Begin now to establish a vaca tion season office on Highway 70 west of town for the 1963 season. It is to be hoped that the Morehead City commissioners would permit the use of the city park for a chamber of commerce office. A lo cation on the adjoining state pro perty at Camp Glenn would also be ideal and might be obtained. 6. A chamber of commerce office could be developed from a re built and redecorated house trail er, or an inexpensive small frame house might be obtained and mov ed to the location. 7. For the summer season (May through November) Chamber hours r should be from 9 to 5 daily except Sundays. Extra evening hours for July 1 through Labor Day may be desirable. To do this will require a relief girl under the supervision of the secretary at a salary based on relief hours required. The program here suggested is expected to establish a fixed opera ting cost of about $500 per month as against the present $900 per month. The annual operating cost budget would be reduced from $10, 000 to about $6,000 which is a real istic figure in relation to annual revenue of $12,000.
