On the contrary the Board is going to let the courts decide the only integration case it now has before it.

But several individual Board members have publicly favored the implementation of the reoenUy-adopUd pokey to which the monsters have re ferred in their statements.)

C/s European Safari Ry CUFF RLME LT. GpVERNOR . . . Last week David S. Coltrane, Assistant Di rector of the Budget, sent up a trial balloon as a . possible candi date for lieutenant governor. Coi trane, now 66, is eligible for re tirement, and is in a good position to take a fling at the State’s num ber two position. for 22 years, Coltrane has been serving the. State. Jh 1837 when Kerr Scott became Commissioner of Agriculture he named Coltrane Assistant Commissioner, a posi tion he held until Scott resigned in February,, 1847, to run for gov ernor. Coltrane then was named to fill out the 11 months of Scott’s unexpired term. When Scott becamo governor, he called Dave in to be his As sistant Director of the Budget. •Seott broke with Coltrane.when the latter supported Umstead rather than Olive for geeereor in 19S2. Scott dismissed him from of fice and had his pay cut off, but Coltrane refused to leave, and was named anew as Assistant Di rector of the Budget by Umstead, and also by Hodges. -Coltrane is an able and well-informed man and should poll a good vote if he takes the plunge for the number two spot. GSM* *4*W0N . . . Another prominent 3E*r Heel whose -name you will likely hear mentioned .as a possible candidate for lieuten ant governor within the next Jew weeks is that of former Senatqr R- -Grady JRankin of Gastonia. Rankin is,$8 .years of .age and generelly regarded as a conserva tive, and .should he cun he would be ,expected to have the becking of. the conservative wing of the nemeeretic party. .Rankin is an able fuun and will probably cut a wide swath if he runs.

The extravaganza is the culmi nation of 20 years of teamwork ' by all the Suzari artists and craftsmen and is for children of all ages.
