Factory not coming

Even before the Standard hits the streets, we are breaking it here. The company, Fox Apparel Inc., from Asheboro, N.C., has released "all offers on the Elkton plant and the possibility of a manufacturing plant in Kentucky at this time," according to a letter by the company's president Wallace C. Thompson.

That means no jobs for many Flynn workers who were waiting to see what would happen and unemployment will stay at a steady high for a while.

Look in this week's Standard for more.
