New Fina BY SUSAN USHER Wallace H. Harding, Brunswick County's new finance director, calls his move from Orange County to the fastest growing county in the state "a career advancement" and an opportunity to live in an area he likes, the coast. It s also, he added in an interview Monday, "an opportunity to get into some new and exciting things."

Orange, in the Piedmont area of the state, had, in 1980, a population of 77,055, more than twice Brunswick's 35,777 census.
