Page 4-B Raleigh Roundup: Budget Cuts Continued From Paco 1-B children. Her husband has custody of their only minor child. In spite of this startling news, Mrs. Pegg says she fully intends to stand up for her pro family issues as stongly as before and that she hasn’t changed her mind about op posing ERA, either. “Divorce doesn’t upset me like it does a lot of people,’’ she was quoted as saying. —fi— Former members of the General Assembly usually come back from time to time to greet their former colleagues. Once a member of the club always a member, seems to be their thinking. Monday evening Judge Judson David Deßamus former Forsyth representative was extended the courtesy of the floor by the speaker as were Ronald Earl Mason of Beaufort, who represented Carteret County and is now with the state office of Commerical Fisheries, and Neal Smith of Rowan County who last week was named to Commissioner of Insurance John Ingram’s staff. As the members gather in discussion groups the con versation generally turns to finances and means of raising funds for the necessary ser vices. The suggestion that a tax be placed on tobacco has not come up that we know of. There is a bill pending in the Senate to • place additional taxes on beer, wine and liquor and there are as ! many (dans for financing the ; highway projects as there are , members in the General assembly and practically all of : them shy away from a gasoline tax.

Graham r and Attorney General Rufus Edmisten are not the only ) devoted leaf fans. Edmisten is a t pipe smoker and collector and - the commissioner sticks rather ( closely to his cigars, i State Sen. Conrad R. Duncan, I Jr., buys his chewing tobacco by the case. But the acknowledged king of the tobacco takers is Sen. Harold W. Hardison of Lenoir. He admits to being hooked on cigars and pipes and likes to chew a little when playing golf. But when it comes to chewers, Hardison is overshadowed by Duncan. He says he is such a devoted chewer he keeps a plastic cup hanging from the radio of his 1980 Cadillac. He is also the only member of the General Assembly who keeps a brass spitton next to his desk. “That was a present from Rep ‘B’ (Bertha 1 Holt. She used to be my seatmate in the House, and she saw me spitting into a cup all the time. So when I came over to the Senate (in 1979) she gave me a spittoon,” the senator explained. Rep. J. Howard Coble of Guilford says that he chews the weed while he plays tennis. “You know tennis attracts a lot of stuffed shirts. Well, I love to spit while I’m playing. It blows their minds,” he chordled. The day after the hostages were honored in Washington, Rep. John Bond Gillam, 111, of Bertie, was distributing lapel buttons resembling small golden peanuts. Rep. Jay Huskins of Iredell, who also has interests down in the peanut country in Nor theastern North Carolina, pin ned his button on his lapel and walked across the court. The first person he met asked what the pin meant. “To honor the hostages,” Ugh gentlemen from Iredell replied. “Oh, those just freed after 444 days in Iran?” “No, thos just freed after four years in the White House.” Rep. S. B. Lacey, Jr., of Avery, who likes to say his is the only Republican S. B. in the House, maneuvered his first piece of legislation through the house Thursday with a sur prising lack of opposition. He had introduced House Bill 11 to reconstitute the Burke County Board of Education, but the senate acted first on Senator Donald Kincaid's companion bill. So, Rep. Lacey moved that the house bill be displaced in order that the senate bill could be taken up. He then explained very briefly that the bill simply reduced the number of mem bers on the Burke board from 12 to seven and urged its passage. But it actually did far more than that. It created three election districts, with two members from each, and called for a seventh member to be elected at large. It provided for a “nonpartisan” board, serving staggered terms, with the chairman and vice chairman to 1 be chosen by the board from < among its members for one year terms.

Board of Transportation allocated $lO-million from funds authorized by the State Highway Bond Act of 1977 for improvements to the state’s large secondary road system here last week. Chowan County’s share of the $lO-miHion allocation is $19,237, based on a formula established by the General Assembly. According to the formula, each county receives a percentage of the total funds available, determined by the unpaved miles of secondary roads in the county in relationship to the total mileage of unpaved secondary roads in the state. Chowan County has 37.05 miles of unpaved roads, while the total mileage of unpaved state maintained secondary roads in North Carolina is 20,000. Only Dare County, with "hen all instructional and administrative units moved into the new complex. Sanction to dispose of the property at public auction, as required by law, was given by the State Board of Community Colleges during its initial meeting on January 8 in Raleigh. Buildings and Grounds Committee Chairman Joseph P. Kramer ex plained the merchanics of sale by public auction, beginning with the posting 27.35 miles of unpaved roads, received less from the allocation than Chowan. There are 1,187.13 miles of unpaved secondary roads in the 14-county Division I, and the total allocation was $616,377. Bertie County has 187.94 unpaved miles and received an allocation of $97,581.
