Cafeteria Ruling
Poses Problem
Public Gioups
Cannot Use
Cafeterias
By MARTIN HARMON
A recent opinion by the attor
ney-general limits the use of
school cafeterias throughout
North Carolina and poses prob
lems in the Kings Mountain area
and Cleveland County,
Specifically, the attorney-gen
eral’s ruling, given in a letter to
the superintendent of public in
struction October 12, states that
boards of education cannot adopt
rules and regulations under the
provisions of G.S. 115-1X3 mak
ing the school cafeteria facilities
available to civic clubs and oth
er community organizations.
Superintendent B. N. Barnes
said the ruling had been passed
to all principals of the Kings
Mountain school disicrict, as well
as to school cafeteria managers.
Mr. Barnes said Principal
James Scruggs had scheduled a
meeting for the Grover cafeteria,
with arrangements now being
made for another location.
On basis of the text of the at
torney-general’s letter, Mr. Barn
es conjectured, Boyce Memorial
ARP church would not have been
able to use West school cafe
teria during tine church’s 'build
ing program.
He did not know, he added,
whether the Bethware Progres
sive Club is using the Bethware
cafeteria as a meeting place.
He further conjectured that the
attorney-general’s ruling 1) wilt
be contested in the courts, or 2)
the law will be changed by the
1963 General Assembly to pro
vide community organization use
of cafeterias.
wumjr uuaiu ui cuuta*
tion, probably with more com
munity-used cafeterias than oth
er school districts of the county,
acted Monday to request the
county’s legislative delegation to
seek alleviation of the ruling.
According to the law, said the
attorney-general, school cafeteria
facilities can be used for supper
and evening meetings of school
activities, teachers’ meetings,
boards of education gathering
and similar school-related func
tions.

^ Elections Boaid Teaser: Roberts
I Winner; Is Republican Putnam?
By MARTIN HARMON
When the Cleveland County
Elections board convenes Thurs
day morning to canvas the votes
ol •RuMday’s general election, its
job will be a little more than the
usual perfunctory certification of
the precinct tabulations, winners
| for county and township offices,
and certification Of totals for dis
trict and state officers to the
tNorh Carolina Board of Elec,
tions.
The question; Will both J. Lae
Roberts , Democrat, and Elzie
Lee Putnam, Republican, be cer- j
tjfied as Number 4 Township j
justices of the peace?
Roberts, a longtime mag's
trate, won 1073 votes in township
^balloting, while Putnam was ac
corded 651 votes Roberts carried
Pall but the Betbware precinct,
where he hed a nine-vote deficit
to Putnam, and wHl be certified.
The basic question: Were Rob
erts and Putnam opposing each
other, or was a Democrat ticket
of one opposing a Republican
ticket of one? Concurrently jn.
volved is the question of the
number of "township justices
electable. AH .agree a township
is allowed a minimum of three
electable justices of the peace.
Some say townships are permit
ted one additional for each 1,000
population. 0‘hers say townships
are permitted three additional
for each incorporated cominun
ity. On either contention, Num
ber 4 Township would be permit
ted not less than nine.
Raymond Maxwell, secretary
of the North Carolina Elections
board, offers the ooinion that
Mr. Roberts and Mr. Putnam
were opposing each Other. An
assistant attorney-general has of
fered a contrary opinion.
County Election Board Chair
man Ralph Gilbert, a Democrat
indicated last week he would
honor the ’Maxwell opinion. Re
publican member John MeBray.
er is expected to voce for certify
ing Putnam.
