An old friend writes in support of Steve

With the election just one week away I do not have time give this space in My Friday Column

Today in the News and Tribune Ms. Shirley Ann Larner writes a letter to the editor in support of her councilman, Steve Price.

LETTERS APRIL 26

  It is very similar to a letter she wrote back in January in defense of Price and Coffey

LETTERS JANUARY 19

 That letter was in response to a column I had written a month earlier concerning Mr. Price's failed attempt to disband the "Historical Society" (previously referred to as the Historic Preservation Commission)

THIRD DISTRICT DESERVES BETTER

Ms. Larner is still carrying on with such themes as The Constitution, Land of the Free and Home of the brave.  She believes that her councilman is the champion of the little people  of New Albany and called his opponent names such as "east end snob" she made vague references to conversations she may or may not had with him.

I am not sure if Ms. Larner has had the opportunity to listen to 3rd district candidate Greg Phipps speak but to me the contrast between the two candidates is overwhelming.  Mr. Phipps, as a professor of Sociology at Indiana University Southeast should not be considered a "pseudo-intellectuals" he is an actual intellectual and will be a fine addition to New Albany's city council.
