NEW VOTING DISTRICT ON LOOKOUT MT.
Dade County voters will go
to the polls for the second time
in less than five weeks on
Wednesday, May 14. The state
Democratic primary will be
held in addition to two-run-off
races from the April 12 county
primary.
Most interest in Dade is in
the run-off races. For Sher¬
iff, Grover C. Tatum and F. C.
Graham are engaged in a run¬
off, being the two to receive
the most votes in the county
primary, although neither re¬
ceived a majority. For Clerk of
Superior Court, Mrs. Grace
Hale Williams and Waldo T.
Simmons are in a run-off, as
neither received a majority in
.he April 12 primary.
State Primary
In the state primary, the
race for Solicitor General of
uie Lookout Mountain Judicial
Circuit is attracting the most
attention. Boh candidates are
young veterans, graduates of
the University of Georgia law
school, and are both practicing
attorneys in Summerville. The
candidates are Earl B. (Bill)
Self and Arch Farrar.
Only other contested race in
the state primary is for Public
Service Commissioner, Ray G.
Birdsall is running against in¬
cumbent Allen Chappell.
New Voting District
A new voting district, creat¬
ed last month, will be in ope¬
ration for the fisst time for the
convenience of those who live
on Lookout Mountain north of

and into the valley to vote
drive to New Salem past a
ing box there and into the val¬
ley again.
This odd situation is a
over from the old times
which the district were set up.
At that time, anyone on
