 OKEH RECORDS: The Origins of Okeh (1918-1920)
Heineman came to the United States in 1914, with his brother Adolph, to study industrial conditions for the rapidly expanding Lindström organization.
Heineman initially sold only motors, a lucrative line at a time when dozens of new phonograph lines were being introduced, and his 1918 trademark application claimed use of the phrase "The Motor of Quality" since September 1915.
Heineman's strategy had been to buy existing, well-established companies to manufacture his products, and he remained true to form in creating his Okeh label, acquiring the former Rex-Imperial studio (and with it, veteran recording engineer Charles A. Hibbard and musical director Fred Hager), and probably acquiring Horace Sheble's Domestic pressing plant in Springfield.

Freshman Republican Rep. Fred Heineman was one of the unlikiest GOP upset winners in 1994, and he faces a rematch with the Democratic incumbent he defeated, former four-term Rep. David Price.
Heineman has been targeted by Democrats and their supportive interest groups for backing GOP proposals to overhaul Medicare and scale back environmental regulations.
Heineman is having an especially hard time living down his comments of early 1995 when he suggested that those with incomes of $133,000 should be regarded as middle-class.

That course spurred Heineman to "look at film through a political lens, to look at film and really analyze it, which I had never done before." Heineman also believes that his participation in the Guided Studies Program, an interdisciplinary curriculum that explores European civilization, was important in shaping his academic perspective.
Heineman, who is from Hingham, MA, has no definite plans yet for life after Trinity, but teaching is one option that appeals to him.
For his summer job, Heineman worked behind the scenes, analyzing surveys about the effectiveness of the organization’s programs, and now he is considering committing to a year-long stint on the front lines.

The district, with its solid Democratic base centered around the Research Triangle area, was seen this fall as one of the many tests for Democrats to reverse the GOP shift of 1994.
Heineman, a former Raleigh police chief who first eeked past Price by about 1,200 votes, had to try to prove he was in touch with average voters after suggesting those with incomes of $133,000 should be considered middle class.
Heineman resorted to tactics that won for him before, denouncing labor's involvement in the race and contending Price was too liberal for the district.

According to Heineman, Cole's office refused to prosecute Harris, claiming there was a lack of evidence that Harris threatened ``bodily harm'' to a carjack victim.
Subsequently, Harris was charged with being involved in a second carjacking in which the victim, a young Nash County mother, was pulled from her vehicle and brutally slain.
Heineman said he thought that six hours of imprisonment in a car trunk constituted ``bodily injury,'' but a spokesman for Cole said no federal charges were pressed because U.S. prosecutors doubted they could make a case.

 Washingtonpost.com: Money Talks
After winning 65 percent of the vote to secure a fourth term in 1992 in North Carolina's 4th District, Democrat David Price fell victim to the Republican landslide of 1994, losing to former Raleigh police chief Fred Heineman by just 1,215 votes.
Price is back in 1996 with a campaign treasury that, on June 30, contained $382,153 – $71,051 more than Heineman.
In a district that heavily favored Democrat Harvey Gant over conservative Republican Senator Jesse Helms in 1990 and gave Clinton a 6-point victory in 1992, Price is well positioned to make a strong run at recapturing his seat.

 Turn Left: Liberal Friendly Places - Chapel Hill
Even though elections here are nonpartisan, you can usually tell who the ultraconservatives are, and they do not win.
Case in point: in the 1994 "Republican revolution," low voter turnout caused David Price (whose district includes Raleigh as well as Chapel Hill) to fall by the smallest of margins to former Raleigh police chief Fred Heineman.
However, Heineman proved to be such an embarassment that when he ran again in '96, Price shelled him.

And the loopholes that plague federal campaigns are trickling down to the state level.
For North Carolinians, it was hard to avoid the barrage of AFL-CIO-financed television ads attacking Republican freshmen in Congress, Fred Heineman and David Funderburk.
They were able to skirt the restriction because these advertising campaigns were ostensibly independent of the campaigns of Heineman's and Funderburk's challengers, and technically did not promote a candidate.

Miner has increased his legislative clout in 2003 after the GOP candidate that he backed for House Speaker overcame a competitor backed by a fellow Pioneer in North Carolina’s statehouse (see Edwin McMahan).
