Tonight, if all goes well. Big Jim Thornton, who has become identi fied with the Broad Slab through out the two Carolinaa and wherever his TV program reaches (which is quite a ways), will become the Broad Slab Mayor in all good fact. In the absence of an accepted protocol for making this appoint ment, Mayor Hanna himself will serve. This is somewhat on the “IH scratch your back, you scratch mine," theory for it wasn't very long ago that Mayor Hanna was petitioning Thornton to name Dunn the Broad Slab Capital. Thornton did so. which obviously would vest the necessary power to name a Mayor with Mayor Hanna.
