HP This small town on the eastern shore of Virginia - was in an uproar today over the results of a tODsy-turvy election that swept the mayor and his six man council out of office. Elected on write-in votes were their wives and in one case the mother of a council man. The women, however, re fuse to take office. They said the positions have been "made light of." The men don't want their jobs back, either. They feel they've been made laughing stocks. The trouble arose after the elections June 12 in which only 24 of the town's 110 reg istered voters turned out. The write-in votes which swung the election apparently were cast as a practical joke. The women say they had nothing to do with the situa tion and have issued a state ment declining to accept the voters' mandate. Mrs. William R. Shannon house, who defeated her mayor husband by one vote, said the town's plight has been attracting a lot of at tention elsewhere. "We're getting calls to be on television shows." she said. "Magazines and newspapers are calling us all because of a practical joke." Mayor Shannonhouse said the Circuit Court of Appeals will have to decide what to do if the women remain stead fast against taking office. The present officials are scheduled to step out Sept. 1. Jackson County Residents To Attend NEA Convention Several Jackson county resi dents will be in Washington D C. and Philadelphia this week, and next for two meetings of edu cators.
