nounced today.

to Its growing chain, bring
ing the total to 866 units
compared with 820 units in
operation at the end of last
yeeu''8 first quarter.
Levine stated that “even
though sales were higher
due to the Increased
number of stores, the sales
were not m strong as the
company had expected be
cause of unfavorable eco
nomic conditions In the
Scuthesist, unseasonably
warm weather which de
layed our normal sales of
fall merchandise, and
additional competition.
The reduced net Income
for the quarter was princi
pally due to the lower than
anticipated sales coupled
with Increased seUlng,
general and administra
tive costs as a result of the
expansion cf our chain.
The company is endeavor
ing to overcome any nega
tive trends and Is con
tinuing Its aggressive
expansion program.

FOR KINGS MOUNTAIN SCHOOL BOARD
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 8th
FELLOW CITIZENS OP KINOS MOUNTAIN:

Kings Mountain School Dlatrlct Board of Education. I am running for the
“Inelde" Kings Mountain seat and would like to ask for your support at
this time.
Although I have never served In an elected office before, I have served
a number of times in appointed poslUcne of leadership during my adult
life In Kings Mountain. I teel that this experience, coupled with my
buBlneee background, gives me Invaluable training to undertake the
duties and responalbUltles of a school board member.
In order to give you some Idea of my phUoeiqihy with regard to the
operation of the school system, I would like to stete that I am not an ikaue-
ortented perecn. I do not have a lot of gripes or complalnU that I am out to
change or campaign against. This does not mean that I do not have strong
convictions or principles with regard to the running of the school system,
^approach to change Is to wort within the syatem, exerting whatever
liyuence or persuasion I may have, either to upgrade or Improve the
snuation.
We presently have a school facility and a staff of educators of which we
can be Justly proud. Even so, the situation is such that continued effort
should be made to keep moving forward. Strong progress needs to be
made In the area of vocational training In Hl^ School and the readbia
program In the Elementary grades.
If I am elected to school board membership by your vote on Nov. 8, I
pledge to continue that effort - to help our schoole meet the challenge of
the future along with the educational needs of our children.
Respectfully,
Paid PoUUcal Advwrtlaemsnt
