Le^slator From Page 1 by the Legislature will come ftom 40 study commissions. Cha pin serves on seven of those com missions, as well as other com mittees. He predicted that 3,000 bills will be introduced in the next legislative session, up ft'om the 1,100 average in the past. The Legislature convenes Jan. 11. “If we get out of there by the Fourth of July, we will be lucky,” said Chapin. Of the environment Chapin said, “It’s our responsibility. This is something we’ve got to be con cerned about." He said said one step toward protecting the en vironment is the Ablemarle- Pamlico Estuarine Study. He in dicated the Legislature should support. Chapin also said aquaculture would receive attention of legis lators and he predicted that oys- *Sg^ clams and other types of sea- Tood will be raised in ponds. Aquaculture will help farmers di versify into the new “crops" and provide an alternative method of getting seafood if traditional sea food waters are closed because of pollution or other reasons. Chapin also said he did not be lieve citizens would accept the idea of “professional" legislators, those whose only job is being a legislator. But he warned that “citizen” legislators are finding thedemandsofbeinga legislator can cause them economic hardships. ’’ “It’s going to get to the point ... you’re going to have to up the ante ...” — pay legislators more. Chapin said. Chapin said 6S percent of the state’s budget is for education and said he is “not sure we are getting out of the money what we’re putting in there.” As he discussed highway im provements, some in the audi ence vigorously nodded in agree ment. “Everybody wants roads. Everybody wants Highway 17 four-laned,” said Chapin. He said several special-interest groups in the East have targeted better roads as their number one leg islative priority. Chapin said a group of legisla tors fl^m the east has said it will not support an expected mea sure to increase the tax on gaso line (used for highway improve ments) unless it receives assur ances for road improvements in the East. Those roads also in clude U.S. 70 and U.S. 64. “It’s coming,” he said of the increase in gasoline taxes. Preceeding the dinner was the annual Mid-East Commission Executive Committee meeting. Committee members were told that the commission’s $5,429,000 budget for this year included moremoneyfor programs for the aged. ’The commission also in formed members about the national award it received for its staff incentive pay plan from the National Association of Develop mental Organizations. Also speaking were Rep. Gene Rogers of the 6th District and Donna Daughtry, administrative assistant for Sen. Tom Taft.

In addition to these obvious non-point source problems are the influences of freshwater and dirt (sediment). Although it may sound innocent enough, fresh water can be very damaging to an estuarine system like the Neuse because it lowers the salinity and can make the water unsuitable for fish needing a saltwater habi tat. Cleared lands don't give rainwaters chance to slow down, and therefore serve as a mqjor non-point source of freshwater pollution. Sediment likewise becomes a problem in large quantities by creating turbidity (mudiness) and causing unnatural rises in the river bottom. The sediment can destroy habitat for fish, eli minate underwater visibility for predation, and smother life on the vital benthic (bottom) layer of the river. This is a particular con cern in the upper Tar basin, which is one of the two most eroded river basins in North Carolina. Perhaps the most important aspect of non-point source pollu tion, however, is that it can be controlled with existing and cost-efficient techniques. The use of best management prac tices by farmers, vegetation buf fer strips around lawns and fields, well-designed runoff trap ping systems for paved areas, and careful spacing in develop ments needing septic tank fields all can significanUy reduce non point source pollution. Some of these techniques will be discussed in a future article. Ou TDOOES by AARON PASS Set Your Sights For Success l:;icli year many liiinters go into the wihhK as unprepared to kill any thing as il they v\ere carry iiig an unloaded gun. Due to the fact that they failed to sight in their rilles. they cheat themselNes i»ut of game, ami many lose the chance at **one in a lifetime*’ tn^phies. riiere is ninhiiig nuNteriiruN or Jifticull ahtnit Nighling in a rille. Greatly siiiiplilied. it is the proceNs of adjusting the sights S4> that they TSv^aiigiied on the same fHunt where the rille sIuhHs the bullets. This is done by liring the rille at a s|x*cilic point to determine where the bullets are striking. Next, the sights aa* adjusted S4> that they aa' aligned tin the bullet impact aa'a. A very tild. but apt description of a well-sighted ritic is 4>ne that **shiH>ts whea* she hH>ks.*' A g$HHl solid a'st and some type of pad to lia* the rille friun is ini|H>r- lanl. A Ivnchast and sandbag arrangement is K*sl. but a rvdied up sleep ing bag on a table or e\en on a car IuhkI beats nothing. Next, all il takes is time and a safe place to shmH. Your besi bet is to contact a IikuI gun club. Many of these host a “sighting-in * day for haal hunters each fall. If you chw>se to free-lance on “open land. * make sure you have the landow ner*s permission and make doubly sure you have a safe backstop to slop your bullets. Far and eye protection, in the fomi of ear plugs and shinning glasses, is highly recommended. If you are mounting a new scope, make sure the mounts and rings arc cui|ectl\ installed and light. Degrease and seal the mount screws that go inu» the receiver with Loc-Tite", shellac or clear tingcmail polish. Do mn seal the ring screws that hold the rings around your scope. If your rille was sighted-in last season, you should still check it out before taking it afield this full. Slinks have been known to warp, or the sights may have been kninked out of alignment during storage. Also check all screws in the stink and scope mount with a proper size screw driver before you begin shiH>ting. If you hase carefully bi>rcsighted or used a collimator w ith a new' rifle or scope, you can skip a preliminary shiniting session at 25 yards to “gel on paper.’* Otherwise, gelling close at short range is highly recom mended since you could miss the entire target at longer ranges. Next, pul a target at KX) yards, and lire three or four rounds off the Innch. rrom the center of this group measure the distance both verti cally and horizontally to the bulTs-eye. Now. adjust your sights accord ingly. moving the rear sight or scope adjustments in the .uune direction you wish to move the group so that il will be on target. Hunting w ith a well-sighted rifle is basic to this season*s success. For no matter what else happens, it w ill all coiik' down to one shot and your ability to put it w here il needs to go. lit Aaron Pass has wriltcn hundreds of articles about huntinj;, fishlnjt and camping for newspapers and magazines. 1968 PM Ectiior’ai ServKes ^1^ ■ BUY U.S. SAVINGS BONDS For the current rote coll... I-SOO'US-BONDS RALEIGH — Redshirt ftesh- I man Jesse Campbell, a Vance- ' boro resident and former West Craven gridiron standout, was one of five North Carolina State named to the all-Atlantic Coast i Conference football team I announced earlier this week by the Associated Press. The Wolfpack, possessing a gifted offense and a stingy de fense, placed five members of its 1988 Peach Bowl team on the all- Atlantic Coast Conference team announced earlier this week by the Associated Press. Leading the parade of Wolf- pack stars is wide receiver Nas- rallah Worthen, who became N.C. State’s all-time leading re ceiver despite nursing a ham string iqjury during the season. He finished the season with 54 catches for 856 yards and seven touchdowns. ’The N.C. State defense, which was among the best in the nation for most of the season, had four picks. Ray Agnew led the defensive line charge that kept N.C. State among the top 10 in total defense. Linebacker Scott Auer collected seven sacks in his first nine games and was in the top five in tackles. Fred Stone, injured late in the Clemson victory and out for the season with a knee irqury, still managed to place third among Wolfpack tackier, and freshman Campbell was N.C. State’s leading tackier going into the final game against Pitt sburgh. He also had five in terceptions in 1988. Dedicate From Page 1 members of the Trustee Board ot the Vanceboro Community Association. The trustees are Bryan; Vice Chairman Bobby Mitchell, Rev. Edwards, secretar- y; Moye, treasurer; Troy Dawson, Joe Dixon and James Dawson. Roger Forrest, a Craven Coun ty commissioner who lives just north of Vanceboro, gave the de dication speech. He praised the collective efforts of the volun teers and others who played parts in helping make the changes at the center. He noted the volunteers for their work, in dicating it takes more than money and plans to see a project such as the center completed. Elaine Stoops, assistant secret ary for aging in the N.C. Division of Aging, made a presentation on behalf ofthe state. Mayor Jimmie Morris and Mrs. Coward cut the ribbon at the center A tour of the center followed the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Refreshments were served by the association and the Vance boro Extension Homemakers Club after the tour. Mary C. Campbell is secretary of the association and Gwen dolyn Lovett is treasurer of the group. Area legislators were able to se cure money to help in the repair- and-renovation project.
