Billings Cool To Governor's Job
Vermont House Speaker Franklin D. Billings Jr. says he has no desire to be governor, preferring a superior court judgeship. The Woodstock Republican, son of a former state chief executive, avoided last year’s statewide GOP runoff and currently leads as the party’s figurehead. He would pursue an opening as a judge rather than challenge an incumbent in a campaign.

Hoff Backs Temporary Track Revenue Adjustments in Pownal
Gov. Philip H Hoff supports continuing temporary adjustments in the revenue split for Green Mountain Park race track in Pownal. He indicated the measure will stay in place until the track improves financially, rejecting a permanent 13-5 percent split and noting legislative aid has helped prevent bigger losses. The oval began in 1963 amid heavy deficits, with about 800000 lost in year one and potential 600000 more avoided last year due to temporary relief.
