Mike O'Neal
I have lived in Council for
22 years and have had the
chance to watch Council
grow.
One reason for my seeking
public office is that I would
like to see Council's Fire
Department improved to the
point where the Fire Depart-
ment could take over the
Ambulance service.
I have been active in many
organizations that include
the Fire Department, Adams
County Search and Rescue,
Some of my reasons for
running for the position of
City Councilman are:
I have had 8 years experi-
ence in management, which
gives me a pretty broad
range in dealing with the
public, from the man on the
street, to the state and
federal level.
2. I have had four years
experience in purchasing.
This would enable the City to
stay well informed during
direct business dealings
and I am presently an which would b e n e f i t

lance that Council now has,
so your vote would be appre-

I presently own my home
on 702 California Ave. If
elected, I would like to hear
everyone's views on any
matter that should arise.
Together we will bd able to
find a solution to any pro-
blem thdt should arise.
Thank you.

experience in installing, as
well as, maintaining water
systems, which I feel would
be beneficial to Council in
view of the new State and
Federal regulations now
pending, concerning the
domestic water uses, and
sewage disposal guidelines.
4. I have had considerable
experience in road construc-
tion and up-keep as well as
equipment maintenance.
In closing, I would like to
say to the people of Council,
I will never dodge any
issues, complaints, or pro-
blems, large or small from
any one of you. If I am
elected, I will do my best to
benefit the people and the
city to the best of my
capabilities.

The Senate has adopted
a $75 tax credit for heads of
households over 65 years of
age, according to Idaho's
U.S. Senator Jim McClure.
McClure, a sponsor of the
provision, said the refund-
able income tax credit is
designed to offset tax
increases on energy which
should increase o v e r a I I
energy prices. "The
elderly and those on fixed
incomes will be hit hardest if
energy taxes are applied,"
McClure explained. "This
tax credit for the elderly
heads of households is an
attempt to soften the blow of
the administration's pro-
posed energy taxes."
The amendment would
allow for a $75 refundable
tax credit to every head of
household, who is at least 65
years of age and earns an
adjusted gross income of
$7,500 or less annually.
McClure noted that he
does not favor the adminis-
tration plan of energy taxes
and would continue to work
to defeat the Carter tax
increase. "If the energy
taxes go into effect,"
McClure said, "this measure
will at least provide some tax
relief to those who need it
most."

THE RECORD has invited
the three candidates to sub-
mit a short statement of their
reasons for seeking the
office, and we are pleased to
print their statements.
Troy Schwartz
Troy's wife is Peggy. He
has 2 sons, 3 year old Ben
and 6 month old Travis. Troy
has lived here most of his
life.
Troy is interested in sewer
and street improvements,
and he thinks new sewer
lines should come first and
doesn't want to have to tear
up any newly installed black
top to lay them. He is self
employed. One of his major
concerns is over the tax
increases.
Idaho's S e n a t o r Jim
McClure has requested
official Senate Committee
hearings to be held in Idaho
concerning the 160-a cre
limitation restriction on
farms receiving f e d e r a 1
water.
The Carter Administration
has said it will begin to
enforce the 1902 provisions
in the Reclamation A c t
although enforcement has
been almost nonexistent for
the past 75 years.
In a statement to the
Chairman of the Energy and
Natural Resources Com-
mittee, McClure s a i d,
"There is nothing more
urgent to many I d a h o
farmers, ranchers and water-
users than the sudden
administration enforcement
of the 160-acre limitation.
Idaho farming families may
be faced with the sudden
loss of their farms, and it is
imperative that their views
be heard."
McQlure has also
requested that Department
of Interior hearings be held
in Idaho as well. Ten hear-
ings were scheduled, but
none in Idaho.
The Idaho Republican
encouraged the Energy and
Natural Resources Commit-
tee to schedule hearings on
the 160-acre limitation after
Congress adjourns sometime
in November. McClure, a
member of the Committee
said he would participate in
the Idaho hearings, or con-
duct them when they are
approved by the Committee.
"Ultimately Congress
must deal with this matter
t h r o u g h legislation,"
McClure said. "I have
introduced legislation in the
past which would have
helped this problem, but
now it is especially important
that Congressional Commit-
tees hear the effects of the
160-acre limitation on the
farmers and a solution be
found from the results of
those hearings. I will be
considering legislation at
that time."
In a season ending effort,
the Council Lumberjacks
rode a high tide of scoring to
a 50-6 victory over the Mid-
vale Rangers. Although the
Rangers were operating with
a skeleton crew because of
disciplinary action against
certain players the Lumber-
jacks went right to work on
the opening play again in the
person of Kelly Hemenway
who raced fifty-four yards off
the right side for an opening
touchdown. Kelly scored
again on the next possession
with a thirty yard scamper.
Lisle Pogue also added
another TD in the first period
on a five yard plunge.
With the Junior Varsity
carrying the offensive load in
the second quarter, Rich
Laine, defensive linebacker
for the "Jacks" picked off a
Ranger pass and raced into
the end zone from fifteen
yards out for the only score
of the second quarter, mak-
ing the score at half time,
24-0.
With the first line offen-
sive back in to start the
second half, Tim DeHaas
moved the squad quickly
down field and topped off the
drive using Lisle Pogue
again with a eight yard run.
The third quarter was the
only .time the Rangers were
able to tally as they salvaged
a shut-out with a Seid to
Potter pass that covered
about twenty-five yards.
The Junior Varsity again
took over the offensive and
continued to score as Denys
Murphy, a freshman, skirted
right end on a reverse play
for a twenty yard touchdown.

issue with
Senator Frank Church has
taken sharp issue with a
proposal now circulating
within the Department of
Housing and Urban Develop-
ment {HUD) which would
require new regional layers
of government at the local
level to obtain Federal funds
for housing, community
development and other pro-
grams.
The proposal is now being
circulated as a "discussion
paper" and takes the posi-
tion that HUD need not
s e c u r e Congressional
approval for the required
regionalization of Federal
programs at the local level.
In s letter to HUD Secre-
tary Patricia Roberts Harris,
Church questioned HUD's
ability to initiate such a
program "without the con-
currence of Congress" and
told the Secretary that "I
would strongly urge you to
consider the co sequences
with care."
Local regional efforts to
provide housing, community
development and other ser-
vices already exist in Idaho
and other states through
local councils of government
and economic development
agencies. Idaho, in fact, has
been in the forefront in
developing regional pro-
grams at the local lewd,
Church noted, "particularly
in the areas of health am]
education."
But Church pointed out
that in these cases, "the
initiative for a regional
approach has come from the
local and state level. That
has been their hallmark, and
that is the reason for their
Success. ' '
Furthermore, said
C h u r c h, Congressional
intent in providing for
Federal participation in local
regional programs has been
that the initiative come from
the local or state level.
Randy Shelton topped off the
scoring for the afternoon as
he ran the right side again
for a four yard paydirt score.
Kelly Hemenway finished
the contest and his high
school career with a 245 yard
effort for the day and a
season total of 914 yards of
offense for the year. Steve
Ogden, injured on the last
play of the game, managed
16 tackles to give him an
even 100 for the season.
Kevin Madsen had 8 tackles
as did Rich Bean in the
gan~e.
This victory, coupled with
the Meadows Valley defeat
of Garden Vally allowed the
Lumberjacks to share the
runner-up position in the
Long Pin League.
"Coach Verner and I are
very pleased with this year's
football efforts," commen-
ted Head Coach Les Nash.
There were a couple of times
when the kids could have
layed down and quit, but
they got it together and
made the season a real
success. The seniors did a
great job throughout the
season as did the younger
crew, which will be very
important to next year's
program. I wish Skip Craw-.
ford could have seen action
in the last contest because
his efforts throughout the
season were tremendous. I
hope Coach Verner and l wiU
be able to secure some
positions for out men on the
"All League" team as well
as the All-State se ions,
we certainly have some
deserving individuals"
added Coach Nash.

Symms supports
new porno
The
legislation to curb c h i I d
pornography and c h i I d
prostitution without raising
constitutional questions that
marred earlier legislation,
Congressman Steve Symms
said.
Symms, R-Idaho, said the
bill p r o h i b i t s interstate
transportation of minors for
the purpose of prostitution
and also prohibits use of
minors under 16 years of age
in sexually explicit conduct
for the purpose of promoting
any visual or print medium
in interstate or foreign com-
m~.
"Essentially, the second
clause prohibits u s e of
in films, photo-
grahps, and other print
media," Symms said. "This
deals with the production of
the materials, instead of the
distribution."
The c h i I d prostitution
clause of t h e legislation
strengthens the Mann ACt.
The Mann Act made illegal
transportation of m i n o r
females across state lines for
"The proposals contained
in the diseusskm paper..,fly
in the face of this good
sense," Church said in his
letter to Harris. "Idahoana
involved in reg/onal pro-
grams have told me bluntly
that they (the new proposals)
will be a disaster. It is their
view that if offered the carrot
of Federal ftmds for Feder-
a.y- re ona za-
tion, the Federal funds will
be refused. Furthermore,
the delicate compromises
that bind sub--airy dif-
ferent local interew ts
together in regional entities
will be tom asunder" if the
Federal government begins
to impose new t luirement
from above.

or pm.pom ,, did
not extend to minor males.
"As the problem of young
boys being exploited and
forced into male prostitution
grew, it became clear that an
extension of the act was
needed." Symms said.
Symms said laws govern-
ing distribution of porno-
graphic materials using
children are a "gray area."
"There is a question of
constitutionality and possi-
ble violation of First Amend-
ment rights, although I find
it hard to believe that the
founders of the country saw
the First Amendment as a
way to protect child pomo-
graphers."
"I wholaheartedly support
the legislation passed today
bythe House," Symms said.
"It provides fines of up to
$I0,000 and up to I0 years of
imprisonment for violators of
these provisions."
"I hope that is a signifi-
cant deterrent for those who
would exploit children for
their own financial gain.'"
