Laurens — A former local ambulance operator’s long standing claim that Laurens County owes him $2,100 has been turned down by Circuit Judge James McF&ddin in an order on file here Tuesday. Judge McFaddin ruled that plaintiff Bryan Craine “does not state a cause of action” in that his contract to provide ambulance service to county residents in the early, 1960s was not made with the Lau rens County Board of Com missioners. Craine in his complaint said the county owes him $2,100 in accordance with a contract with the then coun ty legislative delegation, cov ering a 14-month period at $150 a month. The county demurred to the complaint and arguments were heard by Judge McFad din during the civil court term here last March. Judge McFaddin’s order said that “in the case at hand the law is well settled that contracts with the county must be made by the coun ty commissioners alone.” rtf Oldicnm iVc. “The kid who butters up the teacher may end up with a cheaper grade spread.” A recommendation for JOHNNY WATSON Johnny Watson was em ployed by Dr. James B.
