■Mas' 20—11 days before the
sprino- Democratic , iirimary
election in the state.
In a special meeting at Hills
boro this rnornino- the County
Commissioners indicated in an in
formal discussion that this would
be an agreeable date. Members of
the Chapel Hill Citizens School
Council and the Carrboro Citizens
School Committee had both asked
that the date be set as early in
May as possible.
Date Not Formally Set
■However, the actual designation
of the election rate was not formal
ly designated today, pending an
amendment to the legal description
of the boundaries of the areas to
be affected. It was discovered in
today’s meeting that the property
of George and Lawrence Lashley
in the M'hite Cross area had been
inadvertently left out of the reso
lution passed by the school Boards
and presented to the Commission
ers.
If appeared probably that the
commissioners would be able to
act finally cn setting the date at
their regular meeting for next
month, April 9. The legal machin
ery required prior to holding an
election will take 30 days, it was
noted.
Commissioner Dwight Ray
agreed to arrange for the securing
of election officials in Carrboro,
where the precinct polling place
will be at the Town Hall, and
Commissioner Donald Stanford said
he would dO' the same for White
Cross, where the polling place will
be at the Junior Order Hall.
No Objection
There was no objection voiced
to setting the election date on May
20, though Commissioner Dwight
Ray had previously suggested it
might be held on June 28. A dele
gation representing the Carrboro
Citizens Committee was present at
the meeting. Odell Barham, spokes
man for this group, also suggested
that the referendum be set for
Tuesday, May 20.
Following their discussion i
the referendum the Board mi
with Division Highway Enginci
Tom Burton of Greensboro an
District Egineer L. H. Gunter i
