of Mrs. Melissa Rabun, the
Westfield fifth and sixth grade
chorus received a Superior rating for
their performance in the Trills and
Thrills Festival held at Sprayberry
High School in Atlanta.
Support promised to flooded areas
House Speaker Tom Murphy
offered the encouragement and
prayers of all the members of the
General Assembly for those whose
districts have been affected by recent
floods and promised the support of
House budget writers.
“I applaud Governor Miller’s
quick efforts to obtain federal
disaster relief,” Murphy said. “Yet,
we think that we are going to have
to shoulder some of the burden
ourselves.”
The magnitude of flooding is so
severe that ongoing strategies will
have to be taken to deal with the
damage.”
Murphy viewed the destruction
by air on Tuesday.
“I will be asking Appropriations
Subcommittee members to begin
preparing now for the expenses
which the state is going to have to
meet when Georgians began
picking up the pieces,” Murphy
said.
“I want a plan in place when
budget hearings begin and will
continue visiting affected areas with
other House members to develop
the broad range of flood relief and
infrastructure repair that is needed.”
Experts are already comparing
Georgia’s flood damage to that
caused by Hurricane Andrew in

Bert Tilton of the Houston
County Health Department reports

Georgia, foxes for six percent and
cats and dogs for another six per
cent, with slightly more cats rabid
than dogs. The Epizootic of rabies
