SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: That is why we need the contest. I put it before
the Board. They can discuss it at their next meeting. I wil put it on the
Town Board meeting, B.ettyo
JACK WILLIAMS: Maybe you could put a couple on the bulletin board, so
people could sea it.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: I think the way we left it, it is stilt in Toni's
hands more than mine, because I think the way we left it was once the
Board decides what direction they want to go, and we get some entries, the
Board may decide they don~t even want to get into this. It was a thought
and an idea I had, but they may not agree. They don~t always agree with
me, Jack.
JACK WILLIAMS: Too bad. The reason for my interest in this is because
ten years ago~ when I was a reporter for the Suffolk Times, I wrote a
stqry about the Pound slgn in the middle of seal, and I had the artist
replace it with a dollar sign, and I said, this might be how it would look
to the people of Southwold, England.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: That is how [hey do react to it. It is true.
They don~t feel it is their place to say, but they really don't care for the
Pound Sterling being there. Now, you talk to Morion Wigg|n, and he
has a whole history that he recently sent me in relation to it. It was more
in honor of Lord Sterling, so he has got another whole concept in his mind
why t was developed as it was. The gentleman that did develop the first
one that was handed in, I have since had one from Jim Crathwohl, who
developed the logo for the Bicentenial celebration with the divided king
of p e things in there, and so forth, and he sent his in saying, by golly,
that is the best one if we decide to go in that direction I ~hink it is
going to Lake a contest with some impartial judging, and I asked the public
more than once, you know, please give me any input, if you don~t want to
change it, or you know, if you would be happy, but you usually don~t hear
from people until you take action, and then they say, what are you doing?
So, we will see.
JACK WILLIAMS: On behalf of the public I am looking for your in~ut.
SUPERVISOR COCFIRAN: [ just gave it to you. We will discuss it at the
next Board meeting. It is five o"clock. May I have a motion to hold the
