OBSERVER Thursday, February 11, 1993 Lincoln GOP chooses businessman Craig for county board seat By JOE MARUSAK Staff Writer LINCOLNTON Republican leaders said Wednesday they have nominated Lincolnton businessman Larry Craig to replace Jerry Payseur on the Lincoln County Board of Commissioners. Payseur has announced he plans to resign March 1 after six years on the board so he can devote more time to his family and his job as principal at S. Ray Lowder Elementary School. Republican leaders say Payseur's recommended replacement is an able businessman with plenty of experience in local politics. Craig, 4 46, of Old LincolntonCrouse Road in Lincolnton Township, is part-owner of Big A Auto Parts stores in Lincolnton and Maiden.
He was appointed by the state as the local license plate agent for the N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles after the former agent, Sue Houser, pleaded guilty Dec. 4 to embezzling nearly $62,000 from the Lincolnton tag office. Craig, married and the father of two, is a Lions Club member and a 10-year veteran of Lincoln's Lifesaving Crew. He has had various offices in the county Republican organization in the past 12 years and managed the Lincoln County campaign of Sen.
Bob Dole, R- for president in 1988. The Republicans chose Craig because he "has been very active in community affairs" and proved his financial skills in running a business and in serving as Republican Party finance chairman for many years, said GOP Chairman Jim Lail. The executive committee of Lincoln's Republican Party nominated Payseur's replacement because Payseur is a Republican. Commissioners must approve the appointment, but Craig is likely to meet little or no opposition, since the board has a 4-to-1 Republican majority. Craig said Wednesday he was honored by the nomination.
He said he didn't want to discuss issues facing the county until he's actually appointed to the post and has time to familiarize himself with county government. Boy, 11, burned when mattress catches fire GASTONIA An 11-year-old boy awoke to a flaming mattress and burned legs early Wednesday after a lamp fell into his bed and ignited the sheets, authorities said. Patrick Wilhelm was in good condition at Gaston Memorial Hospital following the fire at 214 Woodleigh said Gaston County Fire Marshall Jim Pharr. The fire was confined to the bed and family members put it out before firefighters arrived, Pharr said. No one else was injured.
The fire started about 12:30 a.m., Pharr said, when a reading lamp attached to the bed's headboard fell into the bed. The light bulb's heat apparently ignited the sheets. When he awoke, Patrick ran for his mother in another room. The house was equipped with a smoke alarm, Pharr said, and it sounded when Patrick opened his bedroom door and smoke poured from the room.
