BE SURE AND VOTE WEDNESDAY SEPT. 11
Races Are Getting Hot And It
Appears That There Will Be A
Big Vote Wednesday In Bryan
Politics in Bryan have stepped up, and while there
are not many races that is causing much “speculation,”
there are three .or four that is going to cause a large turn
out.
Today it appears as if the race that is creating the
most interest is that of Sheriff. The present Sheriff
Harry Williamson has made three races already for the
place and now he is locked in a “life or death” battle with
Colen Floyd, a pulpwood dealer, who has been beating
the bushes for a long time. Just what will happen in this
race remains to be seen. Both sides are out fighting for
the job as if their lives depended on getting elected.
The race for County School Superintendent between
the present Superintendent J. R. DeLoach and William I
B. Mock, a bachelor who has a job in Savannah with the
schools there, but lives with his parents Mr. and Mrs.
John Mock of Ellabell RFD. The schools of Bryan are
considered to be among the best operated in the state and
the teachers and parents have rallied to the support of the
present School Superintendent, and while this race is
being hotly contested for, it not looked to create a great
of support for the man that is trying to take over the
running of the Bryan County Schools to replace Mr. De-
Loach.
The next race that is causing much opposition, is that
of the veteran legislator of Bryan, Jack W. Shuman who
has been in the “running business” for some time and he
has gained a lot of experience in getting the votes, plus
a hard working crew that is helping him, he will have
the edge in Bryan, and his opponent Hines Brantley of
Candler County, who also is a politician that goes after
what he wants will be the candidate with the advantage
in Candler, which makes the other county of Evans the
battle ground for the job, and just what is going to hap
pen in Evans is anybody’s guess. To our way of seeing
the race it will be as “hot as a depot stove in Evans” on
Wednesday, and it will be down to the last vote before the
winner is decided. To say the least, the voters are being
looked after by enough candidates to make it interesting.

Bill Summerford
Head Coach At
Dawson School
We are glad to say that our
good friend and Bryan County
boy has moved to Dawson, one
of the best little cities in South
Georgia where he has accepted
the job as head coach of the
schools at Dawson.
It is a fine promotion for
Bill. When he graduated in 1966
he came back to his home in
Bryan and was given the job
as Coach at Richmond Hill, and
then he moved on to Hines
ville the next year which was
a “big step up” for Bill, ami
now he has gone to Dawson,
which is another big step for
him.
The Journal wishes him all
the luck in the world and hope
that he produces two winners
at Dawson. We could not feel
too much that way when Bill
was at Richmond Hill and
Hinesville, for these bullies
were always a “thorn in our
side,” and gave us more trouble
than most of the rest.
