STATEMENT FROM
JUDGE JACKSON
Statement of Judge Jackson
concerning the appointment of
Mr. Wells as Clerk of Court
here:
“1 have learned with deep re
gret and sorrow of the unex
pected and untimely death of
the Honorable Robert H. Cald
well, Clerk of the Superior
Court of Transylvania County.
His death will be a real loss to
the county. During my contacts
with him in the short time since
he became Clerk 1 had come to
have great respect for him. He
was capable and efficient and
was rapidly learning the many
duties and responsibilities of
Hie Clerk’s office. He gave
every promise Of making one of
our best clerks.
“Mr. Caldwell's death has ere.
ated a real emergency in Trans
ylvania County. In December of
1988, the District Court System
will be established throughout
the Twenty-ninth Judicial Dis
trict This will create an entire
ly new system of courts, abol
lshing all Justice of the Peace,
Mayor and County Courts. At
best it will create some confu
sion and delays. With an inex
perienced clerk the situation
would be much more critical.
“The Transylvania County
Bar Association hcs been wise,
in my opinion, to recommend
the appointment of a lawyer to
fill the vacancy created by Mr.
Caldwell’s death. The county
has been most fortunate to find
a lawyer willing to leave his
practice and serve the County
as Clerk during this difficult
and trying period. Mr. J. O.
WePs, whom I have appointed
Clerk of the Superior Court to
succeed Mr. Caldwell upon the
recommendation of the Trans
ylvania County Bar Association,
is a graduate of Wake Forest
Law School and has practiced
in Transylvania County for a
number of years. He knows the
duties of the office of the Clerk
and has had experience in its
operation as a practicing lawyer
in the county. His knowledge of
law and his experience should
be of great service to Transyl
vania County in this distressing
and trying time. I am grateful
to him for being willing to leave
his practice and serve as Clerk
of the Superior Court.”

“The Little Foxes”, by Lillian
Heilman, is a story of two gree
dy brother^ and a greedy sister
who coldly devour the earth,
scheming, twisting, driving their
way to material success. Her

55
Birdie Hubbard: Woman of
about 40, pretty, well bred, fad
ed face
Regina Giddens: handsome
woman about 40
Alexander Gdddens: pretty
delicate girl of 17
Cal: Negro man - middle age
Oscar Hubbard: Man in late
forties
Benjamin Hubbard: Large
man with large jovial face-age
55
Leo Hubbard: Early twenties,
weak kind of good looks
Horace Giddens: Tall man of
45, has been good looking, but
face is now tired and ill.
William Marshall: Educated
cultured gentleman in his mid
forties.
The setting for the play is at
the Guldens home in a small
town in the South in the sfpring
of 1900.
The play is being supplied to
the Brevard Little Theatre by
Dramatists, Inc., of New York.
“The Little Foxes” was first
produced in 1939 but is being
revived on Broadway thi* year.
The fourfold University of
North Carolina has a physical
plant valued in excess of $224,
000,000 and an annual operating
budget of approximately $99,
000,000. of which 46 per cent
comes from State funds.
Jones’ News Stand, a fixture
here in Brevard for many years,
has moved to a new location.
The news stand, which is also
the location of Jones' Realty
company, is now located on
West Main street between Mack
Allison’s Hardware Center and
Plummer’s Department Store.
Mr. and Mrs. Roy Jones, own
ers and operators of both the
news stand and the realty com
pany, cordially invite their
many friends and customers to
visit them in their new and
more spacious location.
Goal Is $42,964,
13 Local Agencies
Are Benefactors ;
(Continued bum Pace One)
izations and institutions.
The theme of this year's
campaign will be “One Hun
dred Per Cent Pair Share
Giving.” Dr. Massey explain
ed that a “fair share” is equal
to one hour's pay per month
for twelve months for hour
ly employees, or 1% of the
gross income of salaried per
sonnel. ‘ We realise that this
is a high goal,” he declared,
“but feel that it is one worth
aiming for.”
He urged campaign workers
to show the people of Transyl
vania County the advantages
and benefits which United Fund
drives have meant in the past
to the people of Transylvania
County. “We must convince
them of the need for the Unit
ed Fund drive, and that our
campaign fills that need,” he
stated.
Dr. Massey^e
In closing,
dared that,
"The people of Transylvania
county have money for what
they want to buy, whether or
not they need it. It is the Unit
ed Fund's challenge to sell the
people of Transylvania County
what the need — 100% partici
pation in the 1968 Transylvania
County United Fund Campaign.”
