KEATS Herald Staff Gov. Howard Dean has tapped Bo-moeeen restaurant owner David Rogers to fill the House seat held by Rep. Arthur Pratt, R-Castleton, who died in August following a battle with cancer. Rogers, 31, is a Republican. Hes the owner of the Lake House Pub and Grille on Lake Bomoseen.

Art will be missed at the State House, Dean said Thursday in a statement announcing Rogers appointment. But Im sure David will represent his constituents well when he takes over in January. Dean interviewed Rogers for the position Tuesday. He was bom in Rutland and grew up in Proctor, graduating from Proctor High School. He received a bachelors degree from Middlebury College in environmental science.

Rogers said Thursday that hes excited to have the opportunity to serve in the Legislature. I was approached a couple of years ago about running, but didnt feel I could spare the time, he said. This is our fourth season and Im feeling more comfortable with the business. Since the restaurant is a seasonal operation, Rogers said he would be off when the Legislature is in session. It will allow me to concentrate fully on the task on hand, he said.

Rogers will be sworn in at the start of the 2000 Legislature. He plans to run for a full two-year term in March.

get students acclimated to the financial system, Roeckl-Smith says. Down the road when theyre looking for a car loan or mortgage, its going to be to their advantage to see theyve established themselves early. The credit union hopes students will learn to set manageable savings goals say $1 a day or $365 a year. But having the ability to deposit (See Page 11: Credit) Students must deposit $25 to establish a savings account. Those under 18 must have parental permission to have a checking account or credit card.

Students who sign up dont lose their privileges upon graduation. Youre a member for life as far as were concerned, Roeckl-Smith says. The payoff, however, can be immediate. Part of why were doing this is to store on Stratton Road. This isnt a mock setup with Monopoly money, credit union marketing assistant Carol Roeckl-Smith says.

This is a real financial institution. (With real security, too.) The credit union, made up of 13,000 employees from 171 Rutland area businesses, is opening the branch to any student at the high school or technical center. (See Page 11: Rogers) Steeple People City Will Blow Its Own Horn Just Once A Week Sunday at 8:50 p.m. Starting Oct. 1 and running through April 1 the whistle only sounds Saturdays at noon.

"Thats the compromise we came up with, Cassarino said Wednesday. Were just testing it one day a week now to make sure its working. Rutland City Assistant Fire Chief Gary Gregorio said Wednesday that the change in the time that the alarm sounds would have no effect on the fire department. The alarm, he said, had been used many years ago to alert off-duty firefighters of a major blaze in the city. Now, he said, off-duty firefighters have pagers that are activated when additional staffing is needed to fight a fire.

The alarm serves as a backup to the pager system, he said. Its kind of a redundant system for us, he said. Blowing it once a week should be fine to make sure its working. One of the biggest supporters of the whistle, Alderman Joseph Tilden said Wednesday that hes not too disappointed that the whistle will now only be heard one day a week. I think there are bigger things in the world to get upset about, Tilden said.

It was a controversy at the time but now I think its faded. By ALAN J. KEAY8 Herald Staff The 10-of-9 whistle in Rutland City has moved to a new time. The change means that the fire departments alarm, which can be heard across the city, will no longer be sounded at 8:50 p.m. on Wednesdays and Sundays.

Now, its been reduced to a once-a-week tooting, Saturday at noon. The change took place at the beginning of the month. Earlier this year, the whistle had been sounding Monday through Friday at 8:50 p.m. That created a stir among some residents who live near the fire station on Center Street. The controversy split city officials into two camps.

Some pointed to the long tradition of the whistle blowing in the city and wanted to see it continue. The alarm blowing at night would serve as a reminder to children to return home when the city had a 9 p.m. curfew. Others said it served no useful purpose and should be stopped. Mayor John Cassarino eventually brokered a deal reducing the number of times the whistle is sounded.

From May 1 through Sept. 30 the whistle sounded Wednesday and Jamie Callan and Dan Clar of Southgate Construction Steeplejacks ae silhouetted against an afternoon sun as they work on the base of the steeple at the Pittsford Congregational Church.

About 25 barrels containing waste oil, cyanide and an industrial-grade solvent called trichloroethylene were recovered from the creek, he said.

None of the barrels were found to have leaked, Sorrell said. Several other empty drums were discovered off Hough Pond Road in Sudbury. To me, dumping barrels of poison into our waters is a crime of violence, Sorrell said. We are fortunate that the (See Page 11: Toxic) A Brandon man has pleaded guilty to three counts of illegally dumping barrels of hazardous waste into Otter Creek in March 1998. Richard Carroll reached a plea agreement with prosecutors and entered his plea Wednesday in Addison District Court in Middlebury.

He also pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of resisting arrest.
