UNANIMOUS FOR POWERS UN" MgDOUGALL cabinets I While there may have been a differ ence of opinion among members of the new board as to the best men to ap point to some of the city positions, there was none when it came to ap pointing a chief of police. Otis Powers received the unanimous vote of the board for the position he has so very satisfactorily filled dur ing the past several years. The vote of the board was unanimous and the satisfaction the appointment has given is unanim6us too. For it is the strong belief here that Chief of Police Otis Powers is just the right man in the right place. Big, burley, and of fine physique, he is amply able to handle any proposition that may come his way, and to this mere physical ability he brings a dis cerning tact and good judgment that is invaluable in a resort town like Hendersonville. During the years Chief Powers has filled that position, and not merely occupied it, he has es tablished a record for straight ou: efficiency that wil compare with any police official in the state, and the citizens of Hendersonville are con gratulating themselves upon securing his experienced services for another term .
