To The Voters
of
Cleveland
iCounty
I am a candidate for the Cleveland County Board
of Education.
I made my decision to enter the race only after
the announcement that Mr. R. L Plonk of Kings
Mountain would not be a candidate in the forth
coming primary.
After this announcement, I felt that the eastern
section of our county needed an experienced re
presentative.
I have been a local school committeeman for the
past thirty years. This long period of service. I
feel, qualifies me to represent our people on the
Board.
Contrary to rumor. I am not in this race to
"fight" any member of the present Board. I sim
ply offer my services and the benefit uf my ex
periences to the people of Cleveland County,
who are interested in the further advancement
of our educational system.
At the insistence of my friends. I am running ?
this statement to clarify my position in the mat- |
ter. And my friends are paying for the publica
tion of this statement.
I shall appreciate your vote and support.
