Trade board stays clear of college merger talk
The Charleston chamber of commerce educational committee will not participate in the debate over merging West Virginia Wesleyan and Morris Harvey. Charleston ministers and churchmen will attend the West Virginia Methodist conference in Clarksburg. Buckhannon and First Methodist Episcopal leaders oppose the merger and removal of West Virginian Wesleyan, while a ten member commission from the Methodist Episcopal church South may be appointed to negotiate with a southern commission. The outcome remains uncertain but merger support is said to be strong at the conference.
