Johnson City Man Gets Nomination For Chancellor
A four ballot convention in Johnson City nominates Mo Kinhey Cryer of Johnson City as Republican candidate for chancellor of the First Chances Division. Greta was chosen on the fourth ballot by 101 votes for Joe Allens an Elizabethan attorney, to fill the vacancy left by the late Chancellor SG. MONIer at Jennsonerty. Other candidates were Jean G Smith of Jongsboro and FD. Baur Servie at Bristol. Sullivan County support tipped Green to prevail after the fourth ballot as delegates shifted from Carter Johnson and Unicel to Green, who led after the early rounds. The Republican nomination is seen as likely given Democrat abstention in several years. Chancellor Miller had served eight years of his term when he died.
