Support John Russell
Dear Editor:
To me it appears that the voters of Georgia may need to do
some careful scrutiny before casting their btfillots in the coming
primary. This statement is based on the financial disclosures re
quired of all candidates and generally assumed to be fairly ac
curate and decently honest,.
Few ar%ue about mon&v talking, especially in Bolitics.
_To me the question for Georgians is, who is their U. S. senator
g{)mg to represent in Washington when voting time comes and
ills of significant and meaningful importance are before the
Senate?
With three of the principal candidates reportedly heavily
obligated to out-of-state interests, it seems to me that John
Russell, with his financial backing coming solely from Georgians,
will be in a position to genuinely represent Georgia's interests.
. Even to the apathetic and lethargic section otg(lmr electorate
in both parties, this is worthwhile fi;od for thought.
Sincerely,
G. C. Pickle
Endorses Rep. Russell
Dear Editor:
On Aug. 2, Bill Shipp used his column in The Atlanta Con
stitution” to feature Dean Rusk’s support for Wyche Fowler in
the current senatorial race. Rusk and I received distinguished
service awards from the University on the same day. I should
like to announce my support for John Russell.
I have known Russe{)l for years. He took my course on the
constitutional history of Georgia while a student at the Univer
sity. I think he is the best candidate in the race in Georgia for
the United States Senate.

For Johnny Crawford
Dear Editor,
How lucky we are! We have our man in the House of Represen
tatives already on the Appropriations Committee (the commit
tee that spend}; our tax money). This man is Johnny Crawford,
we sure need to keep him. Let's all turn out Tuesday and vote
Johnny Crawford!

Prison Grading Contract
The Geor%a Department of
Corrections (DOC) %opes tolet
a grading contract for the site
ofa prg{)osed new prison in the
Pennville community later this
month. However, state officials
say it will likely be sometime in
1987 before a contract is let on
the prison itself.
Meanwhile, grading of a
road from U.S. 27 to the
186-acre prison site east of the
highway is expected to begin
today or Friday, or possibly
early next week.
Although a grading con
tract for the lprison site is ex
pected to be let this month, it
could be October or November
““at the minimum’ before ac
tual grading work begins, ac
cording to Ronnie Cox of the
DOC.
Fred Steeple, another DOC
official, told The News Tues
day that it will be sometime in
1987 before a contract is let for
construction of the (grison
buildings. Another DOC of
ficial indicated a contract may
not be let until July, 1987.

core facilities, such as kitchen,
to accommodate Kossible
future expansion to house up
to 750 inmates. The prison
itself is expected to taY(e up
some 30 acres on the 186-acre
site, DOC officials estimated.
The grading this fall would in
volve the 30-acre location, they
added.
Officials of Bartow Paving
Co., Cartersville, said Tuesday
that grading of a roadway from
U. S. 27 eastward to the prison
site had been delayed slightly
due to rain in other areas where
the firm’s grading subcontrac
tor was working. However,
Erading of the road should
egin today or Friday or
possibly earlb; next week, they
said.
UTILITIES
The city of Summerville in
late July authorized approval
of an agreement between the ci
ty angr the DOC to supply
utilities to the proposed prison.
The city is supposed to be paid
$1,008,016 for those utilities.
A former Chattooga Coun
ty Hiih coach, Thomas C.
Jones, has been named warden
of the proposed facility. He is
currently warden of the Rivers
Correctional facility in
Milledgeville.
Construction of the lHropos
ed prison in the Pennville com
munity has raised controversy
during the last few years. Most
residents of the area oppose the
rison while most local
Eusiness, civic and political
leaders have endorsed the cor
rectional facility.
