Hollings 2-Elector Plan Dies By CHARLES WICKENBERG Obttrver Columbia Bureau COLUMBIA, S. Ernest F.

It lived less than a week. The funeral will be Sunday afternoon when the states National Democratic Convention delegates meet at the governors house to plan recommendations to the state convention.

Ghapel DIRECTORS SINCE 1898 A complete home hospitality center. simple to install ond easy McKinnon said he would render a decision on the test of the law by annexation foes Aug.

29. The date was set to allow time for an appeal to the State Supreme Court. Each side has promised to appeal if it loses. Opponents of the annexation argued that the General Assembly unconstitutionally delegated its legislative authority in the new law. The law allows cities to annex areas without a referendum.

It has not yet been tested before the Supreme Court. McKinnon ruled that the city complied with the new law in its plans for serving the areas and followed the procedure for annexation outlined in the statute. Anti-annexation attorneys J. L. and Robert Emanuel said they would appeal McKinnon's ruling.

They said, however, the chief issue was the constitutional one which has not been settled. Gossip Club To Disperse NORTH ADAMS, Mass. Wl The proprietor of Apothecary Hall, one of the citys leading drugstores, has posted this notice: Beginning today, the ladies chat and gossip club will not hold any more meetings on our benches.

convenient location is easily from every neighborhood 829 PROVIDENCE ROAD RALEIGH (jn Democratic nominee for lieutenant governor H. Cloyd Philpott said Friday if a special legislative session is called for January he will definitely have his committee appointments ready. However, Rep. Joe Hunt of Guilford, regarded as the front runner for House speaker, said he felt the committee appointments should not be made at a special session. Democratic Dominee for governor Terry Sanford seemed to side with Philpott.

He looked with favor on getting the committee appointments made so the Legislature could begin regular work earlier. The Legislature is scheduled to convene in regular session in February. Sanford has said he favors a special session only if it would serve a purpose, save the people money or the legislators wanted it. Gov. Hodges has said he favors the idea of calling a special session for January for the next governors inauguration ceremonies.

There have been suggestions that if the Legislature is called into special session, it immediately take action to appoint committees. Another line of thought is that the Legislature, once called into special session, could vote to continue in session for the regular dispatch of business. Philpott said he has not given much thought to this idea and would welcome suggestions from Sanford. He added a quicker start might keep the regular session from running into summer. Hunt disagreed, saying he did not believe he was in favor of bringing the Legislature into regular session in January.

BLIGHT not plight or slight. It is not so much a case of your plight itself frustrating you, as of the circ*mstances that put you into such a plight. BLIGHT is the most direct.
