A STATEMENT FROM ALFRED TUCKER Candidate Foi Waid 3 City Commissioner The community in which I live is exactly why I am running for Commissioner in Ward .3. I announced my candidacy in the Kings Moun tain Herald a few weeks back and in that an nouncement I stated that I believe that we cur rently have good government here in Kings Moun tain, but I also believe that it can be improved up on and if I am elected to Commissioner in Ward 3 I will do my utmost with the help of the fine peo ple here in Kings Mountain to see that our city government is improved upon to the utmost of my ability. A few of the things that I would like to see improved upon here in the city is more fire fight ing equipment, and better service from the Fire Department. Just recently one citizen had a trailer burn up on his property. The Kings .Mountain Fire Department failed to answer the call. The Oak Grove and Bethlehem F'ire Department answered the call but by that time the trailer had burned up. Now this fellow lived a mile out of town, but his insurance card was up at the Fire Department ! .ind they should have answeied that call, but no they couldn’t find the card and the man himself went up there and showed them his card. This is the kind of bet ter service that I am talking about. Another thing that I think we need is more recreation facilities. Although groat steps are being taken in this mattoi', I still believe that wo need more play grounds for our children and more supervised recreation for the others. Although Kings Mountain ranks pretty tops in the .state in the matter of recreation, we can still be improved upon in this matter- I would like to put in a plug at this time for the new Facilities Building that is going up over at City Park, and the new Day Care Center that is going to be in that building. This will relieve a great many mothers to work that ai-e cur rently having baby-sitting problems. The Mayor and his commissioners have done a marvelous job so fai. but are we going to let them say stop, right where they are. I say “No”. I say keep on going so that we can say we are really the fine city that mo.st people in the state say that we are. We have taken great strides in the iast few years in a lot of ways. The City of Kings Mountain walked away with all of the honors last year in the United Fund, and I have it from com petent sources that we can do the same this year if we only put our heart and shoulder to it. Many, many things have been accomplished but again I say not to stop here, but we must push on to higher and better goals. The Mayor mentioned in his announcement last week several good points but one in particular sticks out in my mind and that is the Summei Youth Program. I am highly in favor of this program, in fact wc worked about 9 of them over at Duplex last year and I might say that they were some of the best workers that we had- In fact 5 of them work for me. Ward 3 Commissioner — City Election, May 13.1969 ELECT ALFRED TUCKER 8 0 (•- If you can’t keep your bedroom different temperature from the rest of the house, you might os well be sleeping in the kitchen. Some people like their bedrooms cooler than the kitchen. Because they don’t wear blankets in the kitchen. This m^es quite a case for Electric Comfort Heating. The flameless heating system that gives you a thermostat in every room. Of course, there are other advan tages. Gentle, even heat. Almost no moving parts to go haywire. Thrifty operation. If that sounds like the kind of care free heat you want, call Duke Power. You can’t buy a heating system from us, but you can learn things about electric heating. Things like this: About half the new homes and apartments served by Duke Power are now heating electrically. Simply because people don’t like to worry about heating systems. Join them. And live the carefree electric way. DukePbwer^ Wilson TV & Music^ ■ I : 904 W. Gold Street Kings Mountain. N.
