The^festern Carolinian 20 PAGES THURSDAY NOV. 9,1978 Vol.XLIV, No. 12 CULLOWHEE, N.C. Yes Virginia, good times are here BEER IN SYLVA! by AL LAGANO News Editor No Virginia there is not a Santa Claus, but there will be beer in Sylva and maybe in time for Christmas. The town of Sylva voted overwhelmingly in favor of malt beverage (beer!) sales and Democrats made a clean sweep of all Jackson County offices in Tuesday's general election. The malt beverage referendum passed by a 363 to 251 margin. Church groups had been campaigning vigoriously against the proposal. Wayne Hooper (D) is the new chairman of the Jackson County Board of Commissioners. He defeated Ray Ferguson (R) by a 4,950 to 2,959 margin. In the part-time commissioners race. Woody R. Hampton (D) and Brad Pell (D) took the two seats open in that election. In other races, Frank Watson Jr. (D) defeated Glenn Morgan for Clerk of Superior Court, Conrad Burrell (D) defeated J. Weldon Parker (R) for Register of Deeds and Fred Holcombe (D) defeated Joe (Little Joe) Cogdill (R) in the Sheriff's race. In the Board of Education races, Mack G. (Bud) Lewis (D) defeated Betty Ann Gunter (R) in District 2, Cecil C. Ward (D) defeated William L. (Bill) Chovan (R) in District 4 and Ray Crawford (D) defeated James C. (Jim) Ryan in District 5. Loney A. Cabe Jr. (D) ran unopposed for County Coroner. Marcellus Buchanan (D) ran unopposed for District Attorney in the 30th Prosecutorial District as did Robert J. Leatherwood (D) and J. Charles McDarris for the Judge of District Court—30th District. In the State Senate races for the 27th Senatorial District Cecil Hill (D) and Joe H. Palmer (D) defeated Jack B. Brettler (R) and Walter R. Sheppard Jr. (R) for the two seats open in that election. Ernest B. Messer (D) and Liston B. Ramsey (D) won the State Representative seats from the 44th House District. They were unopposed. Jackson County voters voted on 36 state Judge of Superior Court races. All featured unopposed Democrats except for one race in the 18th Judicial District where Edward K. Washington (D) defeated Darl L. Fowler (R) by a two-to-one margin. Two other races facing Jackson County voters were the John Ingram (D) and Jesse Helms (R) United States Senatorial race and the Lamar Gudger (D) and Curtis Helms re-elected to senate Republican Jesse Helms has defeated Democrat John Ingram for the United States Senate making Helms the first Republican ever to win reelection to a major office in North Carolina. The final unofficial returns showed Helms received 611,993 votes or 54.07 percent to Ingrams' 519,860 or 45.93 percent. Helms carried 61 of North Carolina's 100 counties. Ingram conceeded to Helms at 11:14 p.m. Tuesday night but the final returns were not in until late Wednesday afternoon. Helms said his reelection should serve notice to his colleagues that the American people are opposed to excessive federal spending, excessive government control and inflation. Helms said, "It is a victory for hardworKing Americans everywhere who understand the folly of turning to Washington for solutions to problems." Helms spent close to seven million dollars on his reelection campaign compared to only about $300 thousand spent by Ingram. Ingram said he was fighting teriffic odds and was also at a disadvantage because he had no national support on which to base his campaign. He said he had a message to get to the people of North Carolina but did not have the means of delivering that message. Helms is the first Republican ever to win reelection to the United States Senate from the state of North Carolina. Ratcliff (R) 11th District Congressional race. Helms defeated Ingram in the senate contest and Gudger defeated Ratcliff in a close battle in the congressional race. In Jackson County Ingram received 4,227 votes to Helm's 3.601 and Gudger edged out Ratcliff 4,604 to 4.567. David M. Britt (D) and Walter E. Brock (D) won the states Associate Justice of the Supreme Court seats, Burley B. Mitchell Jr. (D), John Webb (D). Richard C. Erwin (D) and Harry C. Martin won Judge of Court of Appeals positions in the state. Gudger topples Ratcliff in NC 11th district Incumbent Democrat Lamar Gudger has defeated Republican challenger Curtis Ratcliff for the 11th District Congressional seat from North Carolina. The Gudger-Ratcliff race was the closest of the 11 Congressional races in which the incumbents won in each case. The Democrats held onto their nine seats while the Republicans remained in control of two seats. In the 11th District race Gudger collected 74,430 votes compared to Ratcliff's 65,619. Gudger won 12 of the 17 counties in the District. The five counties Ratcliff took were Avery, Clay, Graham, Henderson, and Mitchell. Gudger, who has served only one term in Congress, defeated "Bo" Thomas of Hendersonville in the Democratic primary last spring. The other close race for the U.S. House in the state of North Carolina was in the fifth District where Democrat Steve Neal defeated Republican Hamilton Horton 68,816to 58,151. In the First North Carolina District Democrat Walter Jones soundly defeated Republican Jim Newcomb 67,331 to 16.792. insidetoday •Turn to Page 5, Please :A J. i .far *~~& -•* z* Ty Smith takes Sou'hern Conference Defensive Player of the Week honors (not his first time, mind you), and Gerald Harp takes Offensive Player of the Week.
