Ollliit Count>' commissioners met behind closed doors at mid-day Tuesday ntui uiuiDwitk Cuuiiii's ciuei industry hunter to talk about "industrial locations" for approximately an hour, taking no action. Mic'naei deSherbinin, executive director of the Resources Development Commission for Brunswick County, said the executive session was held for the purpose of discussing "matters relating to the location or expansion of industries or other businesses" in the county, as allowed under the state's Open Meeting Law. "We hope to have some industry in here sometime soon," District 2 Commissioner Herman Ixive said later Tuesday. "We think we'll have an announcement Monday night or at least we hope in the very near future we'll have something to tell the people that's good." His optimism reflects that of deSherbinin, who said Monday night several years of development effort chnilM nn?inn "ff - - * ^. uuiu u^^iii uii grain funds and other sources of financial backing provide the services and facilities needed before industry will choose to locate in the county. Shooting Death A gunshot wound that killed a Brick landing man found dead Sunday was apparently self-inflicted, according to the Brunswick County Sheriff's Department. "The coroner and the medical exanuner are in agreement with this department that It appears to be selfinflicted gunshot wound to the head." said Detective Lindsay Walton. "We've got evidence we've sent to the lab for examination " Theodore iTedi Kinlaw was found in the dining area of his mobile home in the Brick I binding area around 1 I'lll OUIIUtl). He had been shot with a 12-gauge shotgun loaded with buckshot. Walton said, and may have been Bomb Threat Was Unfounded A bomb threat at Iceland Middle School Monday morning proved to be unfounded following a search of the school library, Sheriff John CanDavis said. Officers searched the library thoroughly after receiving a call at 9:57 a.m. that a bomb had been placed "behind the books," he said, but found no destructive devices.

The county plans to loan $735,000 of the money to Carolina Caribbean Carriers Inc.. a firm that hopes to begin in early November weekly service from Eagle Island to Puerto Rico of containerized products. It would repay the loan to the county over an eight-year period, with the funds to be used to finance other development projects. The company also must hire a specified number of low- or moderate-income employees from within the county. "I talked with the state today." deSherbinin said Monday. "They said our application is under review 'favorably'." Also, a South Carolina firm is continuing to express interest in the old Smith-Douglas Fertilizer plant site at t Ruled Suicide dead since "possibly late Friday." Kinlaw, in his mid-SOs, tiad not been seen since Friday afternoon, Walton said, and the neighbors became concerned. "A neighbor looked through the window and saw him lying in the floor." Deputy 1 arry Jones called Walton in to investigate. Shallotte Man Flips Vehicle l.oren Michael Mankin Jr., 16, of Shallotte was charged with exceeding safe speed Wednesday by the N.C. Highway Patrol after his vehicle ran off the road and flipped over. The accident occurred at 3 p.m., three tenths of a mile south of Bolivia on nirul unpaved road 1345.

A structural analysis reviewed by the Resources L/CVtriUUIIItMli t .lllilllil\sn?n night indicates, member l.eo Johnson read out loud, that it is "doubtful the superstructure could be restored to usabie condition vnnnmifnllv " deSherbinin said he expects the firm to negotiate further, with a newoffer to the holders of the property. "The problem is that SmithDouglas views it (the structure) as an asset while this report views it as a liability." Also, Bregoil Sponge International Inc. is still negotiating toward locating production facilities near Navassa, having asked Miller Building Corp. for cost estimates for a facility that would be constructed around the production layout of its equipment. The firm, which makes cellulose sponges that soak up oil and toxic wastes, has been seeking additional sources of financial backing before committing itself to locating here. Also improving the county's industry-seeking position is the receipt recently of a $750,000 grant irom the Economic Develooment Ad ministration for development of an "industrial corridor" between the developed section of the Iceland Industrial Park and Navassa, where the Brunswick County Resources Development Corp. holds fee-simple title to about 82.5 acres. They plan to use the grant to improve the site's attractiveness to industry. When completed. the site will have rail spur, access road, natural gas and water and a wastewater treatment plant. A new industry or an industry expanding to a new location would be acceptable for locating there, but not a company that is shutting down a plant elsewhere.
