On Firday, Jan. 19, at a
meeting of the N.C. Employ
ment and Training Council,

State Thad Eure.

County, was one of the six
given the oath. Moore has
worked with Manpower,
Employment and Training
prc^iam, and vocational
programs for the past 30
years, plus he taught voca
tional agriculture for 17 years
