Roads Defined Unimproved, primitive or untraveled roads or trails are clearly designated on the new map, while the definition of residential areas reads, all land which is within 3007eet of a maintained town road except for land in areas otherwise designated.

This implies that the proposed See GUILFORD, Page 2 ditional use permit issued by the Board of Adjustment. But the current proposal eliminates such uses, leaving conditional use permits potentially available for public utilities, camps, cemeteries, quarries or gravel banks, commercial outdoor recreation and planned residential use only. Green River is no longer designated a design control district in the new proposal for a technical legal reason.

The Selectmen may change the proposal themselves, but they probably will try to present some plan to the town before Guilfords interim zoning regulations expire on Aug.

31. The current revisions differ in several major ways from the proposal presented during a controversy-filled information meeting held in May. Two areas formerly zoned residential-commercial, were changed to residential only. They are located along the Hinesburg Road and on the Guilford Center Road between Algiers and Weatherhead Hollow Road. A stretch of residential commercial zoning along the Weatherhead Hollow Road was significantly shortened to end just below the old school house (at the northerly boundary qf Jerry James property.) The jtfeaidpntial industrial commercial area along Route 5 was also shortened, ending at the (southern) Franklin Road.

The commercial zoning of a stretch along part of the Guilford Center Road in the center itself was retained, however.

By YVES-MICHAEL DUMOND SAIGON (UPI) We heard the North Vietnamese soldiers making their way down the underground tunnel that led into our bunker. We scrambled out through the sandbagged bunkers and came face to face with an 18-year-old North Vietnamese soldier training his AK47 rifle on us. Our hands went up.

The two Americans and I had been wounded the day before by American jets making strafing runs at North Vietnamese positions right next to us with 20mm guns. They were only flesh wounds but we had not eaten in three days. We were not in very good shape.

Boosting Affluence By WILLIAM POOLE A tight local housing market loosened up a bit today with the official opening of the rental office of the Westgate Apartments in West Brattleboro. Designed to meet the needs of middle income families, the town house apartments are subsidized through a Federal Housing Administration program known as the 236 housing program.

The first group of 100 apartments are expected to be occupied by Aug. 1 and all units should be in full use by local families some time next fall. Many area families should qualify for the subsidized program, which sets minimum rents for one-bedroom apartments at $123 a month, two-bedroom units at $143 and three bedroom apartments at $160. Eligibility for participation by families in the program and the amount of rent they must pay depends upon the total income of each family. Limits Set According to Donald Tarinelli of the Palmer Tarinelli Construction Co.

of Bridgeport, developers of the $1.5 million project, a family should have an income below the moderate income level limits established by the FHA for the town of Brattleboro. The figure is known as the adjusted income limit and varies with the size of the family, Tarinelli said. For a family of four the adjusted family income figure is $6,885. This means that a family comprising a husband, wife and two children would be eligible if their total family income is somewhere around $7,800 a year. To arrive at the adjusted income figure, $300 for each dependent plus 5 per cent of the Fischer Protest Is Rejected REYKJAVIK (UPI (Organizers of the $250,000 world championship chess match between Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky said IJriday they might give in to Fischers demand and remove all television cameras from the contest hall if that is the only way to save the match.

But Gudmundur Thorarinsson, president of the Icelandic Chess Federation, said his match committee had decided to reject a protest filed by Fischer against the award of the second game of the match to the Russian champion when the temperamental American failed to show up. If it all boils down to cameras or no cameras, I guess well try to remove them, Thorarinsson said. The third game is set for Sunday, but chess sources say it may not come off. Father William Lombardy, Fischers second, discounted rumors that the American chessmaster was flying home. Fischer Files.

Protest I havent heard anything about that and I hope its not true, Lombardy said. Everything is still up in the air. We have settled nothing so far. The American challenger refused to play in the second game Thursday unless all the cameras were removed. He said they distracted him.

Republican candidate for governor, campaigned for four days this week without ever leaving home. Like the turtles and the gypsies, Jeffords takes his home with him wherever he goes. He travels the campaign trails in a fully-contained motorized camper that he now uses for his summer home. Jeffords likes this method of meeting the people because it allows him more easily to take his family along. The trailer, emblazoned with his name and goals, serves as a mobile billboard, spreading his name wherever it travels.

Friday morning Jeffords crossed to Windham County from Bennington to undertake campaigning along the Deerfield Valley. Arriving in Wilmington an hour late due to a malfunction in his rolling home, the candidate hit the streets immediately, walking into stores and introdueing himself, asking how things were going, answering questions. He moved briskly through town, shaking hands with everyone he met. His path was followed by two lovely teenaged nieces who are serving as campaign aides for the attorney general. They carried Jeffords literature, bumper stickers, and petitions, distributing information and gathering At times on the streets of Wilmington, which relys heavily on the tourist trade for its economic base, it was difficult to find a Vermont voter.

Jeffords met a middle-aged couple in one store and introduced himself as a candidate. The couple said hello and that they were from Rhode Island. Well good, nice to have you here, said Jeffords with a grin. Spend lots of money. Jeffords moved fast, but without seeming to be hurried.

His smile never wavered. He listened to the comments of storekeepers, bank clerks, an undertaker, and a philosopher. In one store he stopped and bought a bottle of Pepto-Bismol. The pace was slowed somewhat when Jeffords walked into the downtown office building that houses realtors, contractors, and other prominent members of the business community. Jeffords found himself questioned at length about his intentions if elected, concerning such topics as administering Act 250; the question of taxation; and regionalization of local governments.

The candidate was asked at the beginning of the hour -long dialogue if he was faipiliar with the requirements of Act 250. Well, yes, Jeffords said. In fact I wrote it, for See JEFFORDS, Page 2 Soper jNE MORE HANDSHAKE among thousands James Jeffords, near the end of four days of intensive campaigning, greets a lady running a booth at the Townshend church sale on Friday afternoon.
