Hoff drops Buckley from Vermont Liquor Board race
Gov. Hoff withdraws T. Garry Buckley of Bennington from consideration for the Vermont Liquor Control Board after strong opposition. Donald E. O'Brien will become chairman and Raymond Moore of Rockingham remains as fellow nominees, both Democrats. Buckley had backed Hoff in the governor race and caused GOP questions about his party loyalty. The House approves paper ballots for roll calls on a trial basis for at least ten votes. Hardwick voters set Feb 26 to decide on a $443,000 sewage plan with up to $135,077 in village bonds aided by state and federal funds.
