County Board to Decide On Special Liquor Control Election

A special meeting of the Halifax County Board of Commissioners will be held in the coming days to decide if and when to call a special election on the liquor control act for the county.

Roanoke Rapids residents have urged swift action on the liquor issue. The scene includes local Scouts from East Carolina Council with Seashore Camping exhibits and praise from Chief Scout James E. West at the Chapel Hill State Jamboree.
