friends in the entire Albemarle
area, as well as in Martin Coun- '
ty, and his supporters are hope
ful that he will be given the
appointment. A number of|
Edenton friends, contacted Gov-!
ernor Sanford’s office in behalf;
of Wood’s appointment as well
as Bert Bennett, Jr„ of Winston-
Salem, State Democratic Chair
man.
Weldon Hollowell, who was
Sanford's campaign manager in
Chowan County, has harbored a
more or less optimistic attitude.
Mr. Hollowell had this to say
“It was naturally disappoint
ing to learn of the possibility
that Gilliam Wood of Edenton
would not be appointed to the
Highway Commission. The mat
ter is not settled and I still have
strong hopes that his appoint
ment will materialize. It is my
understanding that Mr. Joyner 1
of Garysburg in Northampton
’County well qualified and
could serve the First Division
well. My faith and confidence
in Terry Sanford and his ad
ministration remains strong and
I am certain that a fair and
satisfactory solution will de
velop.”
Mayor John Mitchener also
sent a telegram to Mr. Bennett
in which he stated:
“We expect the administra
tion to live up to Mr. Merrill
Evans’ promise to Northeastern
North Carolina that Mr. John G.
Wood would be appointed to the
Highway Commission for this
District.”

and Joyner led the hitting for
the Colerain squad.
Colerain scored their two
runs in the second inning and
then Harrell settled down and
pitched shut-out ball for the
rest of the game. He was in
trouble only in the fifth in
ning when the bases were load
ed, but he retired the side with
three strike-outs.
The Orioles scored one run in
the fourth inning and two more
in the sixth inning when Harrell
knocked a bases-loaded double
to win his own game. Harrell’s
record is 2-0 in league play.
