Smith is the newest member on the board; incumbents Mayor Wilbur Hussey and Commissioner Elvis Sumner were also sworn into office. Smith, a junior high school teacher, joins the board for a four-year term. Smith is a member of the Beulaville Recreation Commis sion. He is replacing Commissioner Rabon Maready who did not run for re-election. Maready was presented a cake during the meeting of the Beulaville Board last week by the Beulaville Police Chief Aubry Murphy. Prior to the oaths of office, the Beulaville Commissioners concluded discussion of applying for grant funds to upgrade the town water system and possibly connect with the proposed Chinquapin water system. The board voted unanimously to apply for local water and sewer grant funds through Duplin County to help instu.l a new town well. Commissioner S.A. Blizzard pre sented an estimated cost of $163,000 to install the new well. The Beula ville Commissioners voted to apply for half the cost of the proposed well from county grant funds. According to members of the board, both town wells tap into the same water vein and one pumps approximately 200 gallons a minute while the second pumps only 8 gallons a minute. Following the oath of office for board members, the commissioners voted to begin legal action to collect delinquent taxes. The decision came as a result of a letter from the North Carolina treasury department demanding action be taken by the town to upgrade the collection rate of local taxes. More than $2,000 in delinquent taxes lias been collected within the past month, after a late notice letter was sent to delinquent tax payers, Town Clerk Carol Miller pointed out. Beulaville Commissioners award ed the bid for the purchase of a backhoe to N.C. Equipment Company of Wilmington. The company submitted the low bid of $22,984 and was among six com panies bidding. A Christmas party and bonuses were awarded the town employees. Commissioners set Christmas bonuses at $175 for town employees and allocated $500 for a party to include tire and rescue volunteers. Commissioners renewed Stanley Miller's contract with the town to work with the town water and sewer l) plant equipment. The one-year con tract totals $9,013. Appointed as tax lister for the town was Hollie Thigpen. Commissioner Joe Edwards was " voted as Beulaville Mayor Protem ' and Mayor Wilbur Hussey appointed Kenneth Smith as fire/rescue and ' recreation commissioner; Joe Ed-, wards, police commissioner; Frank - Boyette, water and sewer com- I missioner; S.A. Blizzard, street 1 4) commissioner; and Elvis Sumner, sanitation commissioner. k ?' I * Summerlin Is Appointed Albertson Postmaster Bonnie C.

Extension Service Plans Meeting On Sheep Due to the recent bad crop vears, the number of landowners interested in putting land into pasture is increasing, says Keith J. Hairr, Duplin assistant agricultural exten sion agent. Beef animals have long been the animal of choice in this area for grazing, but recently there have been many questions regarding if sheep production would be a profit able enterprise, or if it should be combined with ? beef herd. To answer such questions, a meeting has been arranged on Dec. 17 at 7 p.m. at the Agricultural Extension Building in Kenansville. "Dr. James Standaert will discuss the economics of sheep production, and I will cover some management practices," says Keith. The public is invited to attend.
