Court (Cmtlaaed from Pag* 1) to prosecute Whitner on the second charge and found him guilty of the first after the charge had been amended to read possession of one concealed weapon. Whitner was given 30 days in jail, suspended on payment of ISO and court coats and two year's good behavior. The state decided not to proaecute McCultough's case. Not prosecuted either was Rohert J. Smith of Cherry Point, charged with aiding and abetting in con cealing weapons and possession of stolen government property. All were involved In a shooting scrape Friday, Sept. 4, at the Edgewater Hotel, Morehead City. Nathaniel Reese, Morehead City Negro, was shot in the knee. Forfeiting bond far failure to ap pear were James Garland Willis of Morehead City and Joseph Daniel Pleasant of Raleigh Wilis had been cited for having no operator's license and Pleasant was charged with running a red light. Carole Lasker Gilmore of More head City forfeited bond when she failed to appear to answer charges of speeding. Mildred H. Ballou of Morehead City forfeited bond on a charge of running a red light. She was also charged with having no operator's license but this count was not prosecuted by the state. For being drank and disorderly and disturbing the peace, Levi Reece of Morehead City was given 30 days in jail by judge Herbert 0. Phillips. The sentence was su spended on payment of court costs. A court order was issued to bring in John Thomas Mobley of Wash ington to stand trial on Oct 26. Mobley failed to appear Monday to answer charges of having no operator's license, careless and reckless driving and makinc an improper left turn. His new bond was set at $230 by the court. Four Camp Lejeune men and one Morehead City man appeared in court charged with fighting in a public place. The four from Camp Lejeune were James J. Mc Canna, Phillip Lawrence D'Angelo, John C. Fritter and Melvin C. Shelly. Frederick David Bryan wast he Morehead City defendant. McCanna, Fritter and Shelly were acquitted, but the court ordered D'Angelo to pay one-half court Morehead Commissioners I Accept Town Audit Report Morehead iMf town commis sioners accepted the 1958-59 audit at their meeting Tuesday night at the municipal building. But action was deferred on awarding the auditing contract to Williams and Wall, Raleigh auditors. Commissioners Walter Morris, Russell Outlaw and Bud Dixon said they would like to study th<> present audit report more thorough ly. Commissioner Dixon suggested that the auditing contract be a warded at the next meeting. Frank P. Wall, of Williams and Wall, explained the audit to the board. Prior to his explanation, Mayor George Dill recommended the com missioners take a look at the Beau fort audits which appeared in Tuesday's NEWS-TIMES. (While Beaufort may not be in a good financial position, neither is More head City, the Morehead audit showed.) Mr. Wall commented that there are deficits in both towns; only Morehead City's is larger. Morehead City ended the 1958 59 fiscal year with $19,049.63 owed. Mr. Wall remarked that the town's debt, I54M59.16 (in bonds) was reduced by $7,000 during 1958 59. At the request of the auditor, the board passed a resolution striking out $19,277.17 owed the recreation commission. Mayor Dill explained that the recreation com mission had agreed not to press demand for payment of this a mount. The town officials claim that the recreation commission finances were set up in the same manner as costs. A ten-day jail sentence against Bryan was suspended on payment of $10 and court costs and a year's good behavior. J. C. Evans of Morehead City wafi ordered to pay court costs after he was fc ind guilty of pass ing a worthless check. He was ordered to validate the check. The case against Preston Earl Murdoch was dismissed. Murdoch had been charged with allowing an unlicensed person to drive. Ten cases were continued until next week's term of court. the old port commission. That leg islation stipulated that the levy col lected was to be paid to the com mission only when the commission showed it needed it. Thus, under the recreation com mission set-up, the town contend ed that it did not have to pay the recreation commission the 10 cents levied for recreation unless the re creation commission asked for it. The mayor said that the town had been paying the recreation commission its 10 cents per hundred dollars valuation only on taxes col lected in the current year and not on taxes paid before or after they were due. The recreation commission, hav ing a hard time making ends meet, looked into the situation during the past year and found they were not getting the amount due them. Since the town had collected $19. (KM) due the commission and already spent it, the recreation commission, the mayor saui agreed to accept its full amount due from the past fiscal year for ward and forget about the $19,000, since it would "wreck" town fin ances, the mayor remarked, if the town had to pay it. Paid to the recreation commis sion during the past fiscal year. Mr. Wall reported, was $10,793.93. At the request of commissioners Morris and Outlaw, the clerk was authorized to check records to determine whether an item of $1,358.79 for "Investment - Real Estate Purchased" was for the four lots on which the Morehead City Garment Co. is located, or some other property. Commissioner S. C. Holloway and the mayor said they believed the item was for the garment company lots, which were turned over to the town quite a few years ago. Commissioner Morris said that if that were true, he thought the item should be carried as a fixed pro perty entry along with the other $6,270 garment company item. Commissioners inquired about the $8,157.50 in court costs due the town. The mayor said that some of these cases on which costs are due go on to superior court and the town is never entitled to recover its total amount, yw It still must be carried on the books. Attorney George McNeill said that he thought this did not pre sent a fair picture. Mr. Wall said there was no way to circumvent the matter. Mr. Wall saW that he thought the 86.53 percentage of taxes collected was better than average. (Hie audit summary will appear in Tuesday's paper). Commissioner Holloway asked the clerk to bring the list of land foreclosures up to date and turn then! over to the attorney for legal action. llarkless Wooten, Morehead City, appeared before the board to pre sent a check for $1,608.17 in back taxes, He also asked the town tit bear part of the expense he in curred in filling in a street by his Edgewater Hotel and laying new 1 sewer line. The town agreed to f reimburse him in the amount of ? $411. The mayor presented a written J request for a street light on S. | 10th Street. The request was made . by James Howland. Commissioner ' Outlaw reported that the street J light approved for Taylor Street J had not been put up. Attending the meeting, in addi tion to those mentioned, were com missioner Ted Garner and Mrs. Blanda McLohon, city treasurer.
