Laurens—In what came close to being the largest voter turnout in Laurens tristory, Paul Culbertson, a local attorney and member of the House > of Representatives, was nominated mayor in Tuesday's Democratic primary. Rep. Culbertson won the nomina tion over David S. Taylor by an overwhelming majority of 1.158 to 409 in an unofficial count. Milton Angelokas was nominated public works commissioner. His 798 votes ranked over the incum# bent commissioner, D. D. Harris’ 571 and C, E. Tollison'^ 142 A run-off wil be held March 25 between incumbent Sam D. Stod dard and J. O. Hedgepath in Ward 1 One. A third candidate was Means Knight. Mr Stoddard’s vote was 498 and Mr. Hedgepath’s 957. Two aldermen were unopposed. They were Kenneth Brow nice, ! Ward Two, and M J.

Some of the highways in and to ward the northwest part of the state have always seemed to us to be somewhat behind those in other sections, based oh the amount of traffic they have been carrying. In some sections the roads are so crooked and hilly that one over-bur dened truck, or other slow-moving vehicle can tie up traffic for a con siderable distance, and at night the driving is almost totally blind, for the hills and curves are alntost invisible. The road to Greenville has been improved and a happy by-pass for through traffic constructed around Laurens, but the Laurens County rperesentatives would seem to have a point in requesting improvement ok the relatively short stretch from Clinton to the county seat. But we question yvhether a three- lane highway is the answer. We doubt the safety of such a road. With only lines between them and the strong possibility of death, we cannot but wonder how many of our ; drivers could drive safely on such PC Diamond Crew Opens Schedule _ Here On Wednesday a system.
