Investigation has proved that the great majority of North Carolina's retail beer outlets are decent, re spectable places of legitimate business. However, there are bound to be a certain small number in the group who are “black sheep” in that they per mit anti-social practices in their places of business or indulge in them themselves. Desiring to eliminate the objectionable places, the Brewers and North Carolina Beer Distributors Com mittee has cooperated fully with law enforcement officials and to date 90 of them have lost their licenses and several score others have been denied new licenses because they refused to “clean up” during the past year. So . . . when you say: "That's where we’ll go!”, be sure it is the RIGHT kind of retail beer outlet. Brewers and North Carolina Beer Distributors Committee EDGAR H.
