Incumbent Congressman Wins (Continued from page 1) every one of Hoke's precincts in winning reelection to his Fifth con secutive term in the House. Blake, who conceded at about 9:30 p.m. Tuesday, blamed his loss partly on blacks not knowing how to split the ticket and vote for him. He claimed blacks in the district wanted to vote for him. Blake compaigned primarily on national issues, supporting the Republican president and the Reagan policies. Hefner's campaigning on televi sion expressed his interest in the elderly and handicapped, saying he was concerned with people rather than with dollar issues, which was the philosophy Blake tried to at tack. Elsewhere Tuesday, unofficial and, in places, incomplete, returns show the state's Democratic in cumbents won reelection to the House. On the other hand, Republican Jim Martin won reelec tion to his Ninth District seat, easi ly defeating Democrat Preston Cornelius, and Republican James T. Broyhill won a new term in the 10th District, unopposed by a can didate of a major party. The Democratic congressmen besides Hefner who appeared win ners were Walter Jones in the First District, Charles Whitley in the Third, Ike Andrews in the Fourth, Stephen Neal in the Fifth, and Charles Rose in the Seventh. Around Town (Continued from page 1) Democrats only, and the total vote in the county was 3716. The total number of Democrats registered is 8260, so 45% of the registered voters went to the polls.

I teach a Sunday school class at the Raeford Presbyterian Church and in the class is my good friend, Archie McDiarmid. As most of you know Archie has a leader dog, named Duke. He comes each Sunday to Sunday School with Archie and stays beside his chair until the class is over. Several weeks ago Archie's brother, Willie Brown and his wife, celebrated their 40th wedding anni versary. When Mary Alice and I went down the receiving line at the event, Archie was at the end of the line sitting in a chair. Of course Duke was beside the chair. When I spoke to Archie and said a few words to him, Duke arose and wagged his tail. Archie said, Sam he recognizes your voice, you are the first person that has come through the line that has made him move. Just on Sundays does he hear my voice, but 1 wonder what he would tell if he could talk. L!lIJECE TO: OUR SPECIAL CUSTOMER IN RAEFORD NORTH CAROUNA Unofficial Election C.
