The 4-year-old Korean girl arrived at the Newport News airport Saturday night for a joyful reunion with her mother, Mrs. Ham Nam Richburg of Williamsburg, whom she has not seen for nearly 10 months. The youngster has been the subject of a civil dispute in Pusan, South Korea, where she has been detained for nearly a year, by-her-mother's former landlord. A story about the little girl's plight, published in the Newport News Times-Herald in February, "apparently started a snowballing, effect that brought our daughter home to us," said Mrs.

Rich- Her husband, Sgt. 1C Felder Richburg, said the story was circulated widely in Korea, and he believes this created public interest in the case, leading to its solution. But it took the cooperation of two the and several people in the United States and South Korea to get- the child safely to America. "I don't know who to thank the most," said Richburg, who flew to Korea to escort the little girl to this country and the waiting arms of the mother. Dalton Set A Goal For Himself GOP Candidates Pro RICHMOND (AP) The following are profiles of the three Republican candidates for.

statewide office nominated Saturday at the state GOP convention in Roanoke: "Becoming governor is a goal that I set for myself more than 20 years ago," says Lt. Gov. John Dalton, whose adoptive father; U. District Judge Ted Dalton, received the same nomination 24 years ago. Facing the overwhelming might of.the Byrd Democratic machine, the elder Dalton and the Hedging Republican party in Virginia never stood a chance.

But in 1977 the Byrd machine is long extinct and John Dalton is confident a coalition of Republicans and conservative independents and Democrats can provide him the honor that eluded his father. Born in Emporia and raised in Radford, the 46-year-old attorney still carries the scars, of his days as quarterback of the Radford High School footbalteam. He was president of the student body at the College of William Mary and graduated from the University of Virginia law school. One of the wealthiest can- didates on the Virginia political scene, he has parlayed a gift of stock worth some $10,000 at the time of his graduation from high school into vast real estate and bank stock holdings worth some $1.2 Hargrave Offers Summer Programs CHATHAM Hargrave Military Academy will offer two programs this summer for elementary and high school students who want to get ahead in their studies or make up work in subjects failed last winter.

Dalton learned politics at his father's knee and has been active in party affairs nearly allhislife. He was state president of the Young Republican Federation in 1959 and 1960 and has since been state treasurer and general counsel for the party a member of the GOP State Central Committee.

A member of the House of Delegates from 1966 to 1972, a senator in 1973 and lieutenant governor since, 1974, he has never lost an election. "And I don't intend to lose this one, "he says. A. Joe Canada, is a sixyear veteran of the Virginia Senate with a penchant for unusual political moves. The 38-year-old Virginia Beach attorney put on a pair of hiking books and decided to "walk" his way into the Republican nomination for lieutenant governor four years ago.

But he lost to a man named John Dalton. This year he went into the convention as an underdog for the same nomination but emerged a clear winner after seconding his own nomination with a ringing speech. Tall, good-looking and an avid athlete, he was educated at Hampden-Sydney College and T. C. Williams Law School.

In the legislature he has earned recognition as an avid law-and-qrder man, and has been in seeking a 'broadening of Virginia's death penalty law. of the State J.

And once that decision was made, he began assiduously to courtsupport wherever two or more Republicans gathered. Last Saturday that persistence paid off.

He applied for passports and visas for his wife andEpune. paper work was completed, he had to go to a proceedings. His wife stayed behind to wait for her papers, and it was then the youngster was taken from her mother, the Richburg's claimed.

The mother admitted she had owed money to her former landlord, but said she had paid it back. When it 'was time for her to join her husband in Seoul, she said, the child "was grabbed right out of my. arm- "I tried to get her back, but the Americans said they couldn't help because I was Korean. The local Korean police said they wbuldri't help because I was an American dependent." The she feared for her safety after the incident and came to the U. S.

with her husband because she was afraid her visa would be cancelled. "I thought, if I came to America my husband could help me, but it didn't happen that way," she said. The couple said they con- tacted congressmen, asked the Army for help, called the Korean Embassy and finally hired a lawyer. "The Army tried to help but their hands were tied," Rich- burg said. "The Embassy pointed out that since it was a civil many considerations had to be taken into account.

It also will help you un- derstand some of the dif- ficulties faced by older people who have arthritis, stroke and cataracts. This is why hun- dreds of employes of Virginia's nursing homes have been simulating physical loss that often accompanies old age with these and other exercises. Experiencing directly the problems and handicaps of the patients they care for is part of an innovative of education for health workers in Virginia funded by the Department Of Health, Education and Welfare. Of- ficials are so impressed by the success of the program designed and implemented by the Virginia Health Care Association that they have approved funding for an ad- ditional Michael Greenfest, project director with the Virginia Health Care Association (VH- CA), says that the $39,500 allocated by the Federal government to develop the special training program "has not only proven itself as a pilot program, but, because of Its success, will be continued." Mrs. Pat McCarthy, ad- ministrator of Chippenbam Convalescent Center in Rich- mond, who chairs the VHCA education committee, says; "The program we have developed will allow many people involved in the care of geriatric patients to un- derstand some of the problems associated with aging and care for the aged for the first'time.

Sensitivity training will help them identify with the han- dicaps and disabilities of the elderly who require our care. In the long run, we feel this will make them better able to care for and serve these patients." Greenfest points out that this is the first program to attempt i i i education on a statewide basis to the persons performing essential services to this area ofhealthcare. In the five months since the active training phase of the program began, 324 nursing home employes have been" trained In new techniques and technologies, representing. 57 "nursing homes'in Virginia. Training sessions have: in- cluded all levels of health care ad-- ministrators, registered and therapists to or- derlies, cooks, housekeepers and nursing aides.

Before the year's program ends in 240 more people will have participated. Training sessions have provided 22 days of in- struction in communities across the state including i a Fredericksburg, Charlot- tesville, Hampton, Wytheville, Newport News and Wood- bridge. "We're more concerned with a a i a technological developments," says James Summers, director of i i i a education with the Medical Society of Virginia. The program has two primary components, says Greenfest, The first consists of sessions which train nursing home administrative-and i knowledge which they, in turn, will be imparting to their own staffs through Mn-service education. The second is a more general a i i program open to all employes which alerts them to new ideas and methods in health care and reinforces.

Godwin Nursing 'Home in Norfolk, says the 1 Education Committee "has done a tremendous filling the need for education and bringing diverse' elements of nursing homes together. "The training is giving them a much better perspective of their roles in a nursing home," she continues.

"This educational direction is something we have needed. For quite a long time, the Health Care Association had no way or means of training our own people. We often had to hire people experienced in areas of health care other than nursing homes with little or no geriatric experience. Now we have a program stressing this area." By Authority of Bobby N.
