Nobody has denied anybody any thing." This is one of the dumbest remarks a Commissioner could make. Kids simply don't come around to the best utcilities in the world unless there is good leadership to run the facilities. You can have the best playground but without good playground leaders the playground will be empty, leadership should.be the number one priority in the county commissioners' thoughts on budget cuts and they fired the whole staff according to this morning's Fayette ville Times. Putting money first is not serving the people who elected these commissioners. The job of the commissioners is to raise the money as hard as that is, not to say you can't have this recreation service, you weren't elected to ,say no to serving the recreation needs of the people. If you aren't moved by the pleas of the Little Leaguerers you just are not meeting their needs to be served by you. An you don't deserve being in office. You are there to serve the needs of kids am well as to make a workable budget. So please, Sammy'' Cox, do your duty even if you have to1" raise taxes. Ken Johnson 1-BjBHBBHHLi ?I Pembroke l>ru?
