Caveness Pushes Action on State Liquor Referendum
Raleigh Feb 8 Rep Shelley B Cavenness of Guilford urged the house propositions and grievances committee to take up and settle the L A Martin bill proposing a statewide liquor vote next week. A public hearing was likely and the measure would decide between county option continuation or a statewide dry regime, not affecting beer or wine. The committee also reported on three local liquor bills including banning bay rum as a beverage in Rockingham County and penalties for public drunkenness in Davidson County. Morris Roberts, former Cleveland Barons goalie, now coaches the Muncie Indiana team in a new International Hockey League.
