Land Use Debate Shifts After Vermont Primary Losses
In Montpelier, Vermont, Tuesday's Republican primary results shake the land use issue. Rep. Royal B. Cutts loses, Sen. Arthur H. Jones survives by 15 votes, and Gov. Kennedy signals pressure to replace Environmental Conservation Secretary Marvin Johnson. Some backers urge delaying action on a new land use plan while supporters urge study and a legislative bill from the Land Use study committee.

Greyhound Racing Comes to Pownal Vermont Debut Planned
Greyhound racing moves toward Vermont with a September 1975 debut at Green Mountain Park. The land use permit for a quarter-mile dog track and related buildings was approved by the Bennington County District Environmental Commission pending two subsidiary permits. Track owners weigh licensing under various Vermont corporations amid procedural delays, with state officials encouraging year-round use and a letter of intent. Daily attendance for year one is projected at 1,500 to 1,800, far below earlier hoped-for crowds.
