t»i.ge SA-MIRROR-HERALD-Thursday. August 4, 1977 Commissioners Deny Interference With Police (From Page lA) "On Feb. 28," said Childers,’’ the city ard had an executive 'Bonnel session ing the regular !tlng at which time . discussed personnel ^or various grants. During this meeting. Chief Lloyd reiterated to the board on several occasions that these were not continuing 'rants. Now, on the In- rvlce grants. It .arly states that It will I a continuing grant fl- iced by the city upon ipletlcn of the Initial nt period. Therefore, .annot honestly sit and Tte to commit future Imlnlstratlons to a Talent Night fe Scheduled By Baptists x'he Recreation .ommlttee of First Baptist Church of Kings 'fountain la sponsoring Talent Night ’Tuesday, ug. 9, 7:30 p. m. Members of the church are participating. In cluded will be singers. Instrumentalists, pup pets, pantomlnlsts, and others. Special guests for the evening are the Sweet * dellnes of Gastonia, is group was recently commended for juder from the In- i-natlonal organization ’ the Sweet Adelines.” i'he Simplified Ver sion," a quartet from the Sweet Adelines, will be singing, also. Place of meeting Is the Fellowship and tctlvltles building of .'Irst B^tlst Church. Plenty of seats are available In an alr- ccmdltloned building. program for which we don’t know will work." Comm. Norman King made the motion to deny based on wording In the contract LEAA had pro vided. The board had previously approved some time ago several other LEAA grants on recommendation of the Chief. ‘"Ihls was the first time we had a real chance to study the grant application,” said Childers. The denied grant application reads; "’The City of Kings Mountain agrees to make every effort to continue this program with local appropriated funds If It meets the stated goals and objectives as out lined In the application for funds. In order to make this determina tion the local governing body will receive a report from the project director not less than quarterly to make this determination. The City of trines Mountain recognizes that funding of this application In no way Implies a commit ment on the part of the Law Enforcement Assistance Administra tion or the Governor’s Crime Control Com mission to make sub sequent years funding available to It. The <31ty of Kings Mountain recognizes that LEAA funding is provided as seed money to create programs which other wise might not be Im plemented, therefore. It understands Its obliga tion to provide necessary local ap propriations at the end 01 r ederal support. All commitments must be by the Local Governing Body, not be Individual In private sector, or Individual In governing body.” Chief Lloyd says the "grant the board turned down holds no require ment of continuous whatsoever. Total city Involvement was $390.00 to get $7,800, SO percent of which would replace salaries while officers are off at school which means no loss of man power while officers are getting training.” The commission contends that next year the program would cost $7,020. from city funds. Lloyd contends this was a standard contract and that all the board had previously ap proved was worded to effect that It would be a continuing program. Another bone of contention between the C3ilef and Childers Is the commission’s new pay scale policy on vacation time. "When the personnel committee, (which consists of Childers, Comm. Norman King and Comm. Humes Houston) made Job classification) we placed each employe In a Job classification. What they previously were might have called for an hourly ad justment Increase and that’s what they received recently. From that Initial Increase, they will start on their five percent Increase beginning with first pay day In September with Increments. Last week’s pay was Just a one time adjustment. “’Riere were so many people doing the same Job, for Instance, an example, one making $2.B0 an hour, the other $3 an hour for the same Job. We didn’t penalize anyone. We had to go on what we had.” C!hllders continued, ‘"The Pilot Creek Waste Operator who resigned was hired as a laborer and then he earned his certificate as waste treatment plant operator. We were not notified that he had received his certificate. 'This should have been done by his department head, Mike Church. He would have then been reclassified and automatically gotten his pay raise.” In the old city or dinance, said Childers, a salaried employe received two weeks vacation, an hourly employe received one week vacation. The new personnel policy Is set up on years of service, an employe with less than one year’s service gets one week, with three years service an employe receives two weeks and fOr all over 10 years em ployment the employe receives three weeks vacation with pay. 'The vacation policy went Into effect with adoption of the new city budget July 1. Comm. Childers said that Chief Lloyd met with the personnel committee once and said he "felt he had more money due him after being here one year. At that time he (the chief) didn’t mention any figures and no action was taken. "I haven’t Interferred In his operation In any way,” said Childers. Childers said the vacation schedule was Just something the board and committee would have to work out. For the 1976-77 fiscal year. Chief Lloyd was paid $13,378.28. For the 1977-78 fiscal year, he would have received $13,782.08, an Increase od $403.73. His new Job as Region C Criminal Justice Agency Director will pay a beginning salary of $16,000. Chief Lloyd said his own pay raise request and that of another officer. Ptl. James Camp were Ignored by commissioners when drawing the 1977-78 budget. Ptl. Camp was paid $140 a week a year ago when he reported to work at City Hall. His weekly pay Is now $164 but he Is unhappy because he didn’t receive a raise when two patrolmen, who Joined the force after he did, were raised and are making a higher salary. Chief Lloyd told a WBTV reporter Tuesday night that he had asked for $16,000 annually, comphiing his request with other department heads. Including Supt. of Public Works who Is now paid $22,600 annually. "I’d like to know what’s so special about the police departmmt," Lloyd said, "You won’t find the commissioners Interferrlng with any other department In the city as It does this one.” Ei NOTICE TO CREDITORS NOTICE OF ADMINISTRATRIX TO CREDITORS Having qualified as Administratrix of the Estate of Donald D.

Independence National Bank "1 lost 53 piHIllds with NatnrSlim and I feel like a new person -Susan Simpson • •• "Since beginning the NaturSlim program I've gone from a size 19 to a size 13/14 and lost 53 pounds. My goal is to lose 60 pounds and drop to a size 12" says 16 year old Susan Simpson, student at Narbonne High School and a resident of Lomita, California. "1 weighed 197 pounds and had tried many other diets, such as counting calorics, Ayds, the orange a day diet, etc., but none produced the results that NaturSlim has. “It is really nice to feel a part of living again ... to be able to crawl out of my shell and stand on my own two feet. I used to wear a jacket everywhere 1 went because of my weight, but now 1 am proud and happy not to have to hide like that anymore. For the first time in eight years I'm looking forward to participating in summer activities, such as swimming and going to the beach with my friends, “1 followed the recommended program, mixing NaturSlim with nonfat chocolate milk or unsweetened orange juice for breakfast and lunch, and I ate regular portions of meat, potatoes, vegetable and usually a salad for dinner. NaturSlim really tastes good and fills me up so I don't experience hunger pangs during the day. When I feel the urge for a snack 1 eat an apple or fresh carrots. "One of the things that really helped was the support, encouragement and compliments from my friends and family. My social life is improving, too. I'm really looking forward to the Senior Prom. And since I've slimmed down. I've gotten a whole new wardrobel" Susan's mother comments that "A lot of people don't even recognize Susan since her weight loss. Her father and I are really proud of Susan and her strong will and determination to stick with the program. Susan is like a new person ... she is more out-going and happy to be involved in activities with others. We are able to share much more together because she is not so shy and withdrawn. It is Susan’s desire to reach out to those other teenage girls and adults who are overweight like she used to be . . . and to convey to them the message that the NaturSlim program really works!” a nutritional aid to healthful weight reduction Available at Leading DruKStores Everywhere. ★GRIFHN DRUG ★MOUNTAINEER PHARMACY ★ HARPER’S PHARMACY 9 E.
