Page 2A-THE KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD-Thursday, March 17, 1994 Bass hopes to get on Senate ballot Retired Casar resident and dec- orated Army veteran Jack Bass needs signatures of 3,000 regis- tered voters so that he can run for the 37th N. C. Senate in November as an Unaffiliated candidate. Bass started circulating his peti- tion in the Kings Mountain area this week. Bass wants on the ballot to win. He says he is a people, not a Party person. Although this is his first time to run for public office, Bass says he has been involved with the work- ings of government all his life. He is a former member of the Republican State Executive Committee. "When only 14 Senators show up to vote during the Governor's special crime session in Raleigh it's “time to do something," said Bass of his decision to throw his hat in the ring with a big field of candidates for the seat that J. Ollie Harris of Kings Mountain is vacating in November. An Army veteran of the Korean Conflict, Bass is well known to veterans organizations and has been a leader in helping disabled veterans and their widows receive benefits. "I got out of the Democrat and Republican Parties because they haven't shown the veterans and dis- abled veterans who applied for so- cial security any help at all," said Bass. A native of Harnett County, Bass JACK BASS went into the Army just out of high school and on his 18th birthday participated in the Inchon Invasion with the 7th Infantry Division.

As a drill sergeant he led basic training at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. He returned to Korea with the 8th Cavalry for his second tour of duty.
