Mayor says lottery spending may be reason for concern By JIMMY SIMPSON Staff Writer Despite multi-million dollar winners and increased sales, Georgia lottery monies may be taking priority over family necessities believes Mayor Jim Worrall. "Some of the folks buying lottery tickets should be buying food for their children," Worrall said. The mayor said Perry actually has a "very small" percentage of people living in poverty compared to larger cities, but said he believes the problem is still cause for concern. "I don't think that we have such a problem with poverty in Perry that you can visibly see people suffering (from lottery spendings), but there are situations that need to be addressed," he said. The lottery is speculated as being in jeopardy by some Safe Kids Day planned Sat., Sept. 17 In an effort to create awareness about the prevention of childhood injuries in the community, Perry Hospital and Safe Kids of Georgia in Houston County will sponsor Safe Kids Day on Saturday, Sept. 17, from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. at Kroger.

That speculation came after recent verbal attacks by both, the Zell Miller and Guy Millner campaigns. Miller supporters say Millner will put an end to the lottery program if elected, while Millner said his only change would be to manage the lottery program closer than it is now monitored. Worrall, a former educator, said that the goal of the lottery program was to provide students with more in the classroom by means of lottery proceeds. But now, said the mayor, he's somewhat disappointed in the program. "I’m glad that extra money is going to our schools," Worrall said, "but I'm disappointed that the schools aren't getting any more (money) than they are out of it..." Perry celebrities will be on hand to bag groceries to raise money for Safe Kids of Georgia in Houston County.
