Mayor says lottery spending
may be reason for concern
By JIMMY SIMPSON
Staff Writer
Despite multi-million dollar
winners and increased sales,
Georgia lottery monies may be
taking priority over family
necessities believes Mayor Jim
Worrall.
"Some of the folks buying
lottery tickets should be buying
food for their children," Worrall
said.
The mayor said Perry actually
has a "very small" percentage of
people living in poverty
compared to larger cities, but
said he believes the problem is
still cause for concern.
"I don't think that we have
such a problem with poverty in
Perry that you can visibly see
people suffering (from lottery
spendings), but there are
situations that need to be
addressed," he said.
The lottery is speculated as
being in jeopardy by some

Georgia voters when they go to
the polls in November's
gubernatorial election. That
speculation came after recent
verbal attacks by both, the Zell
Miller and Guy Millner
campaigns.
Miller supporters say Millner
will put an end to the lottery
program if elected, while Millner
said his only change would be to
manage the lottery program
closer than it is now monitored.
Worrall, a former educator,
said that the goal of the lottery
program was to provide students
with more in the classroom by
means of lottery proceeds. But
now, said the mayor, he's
somewhat disappointed in the
program.
"I’m glad that extra money is
going to our schools," Worrall
said, "but I'm disappointed that
the schools aren't getting any
more (money) than they are out
of it..."
Perry celebrities will be on hand
to bag groceries to raise money for
Safe Kids of Georgia in Houston
County.
According to the American
Academy of Pediatrics, nearly 400
children under the age of four
throughout the nation die each
month because of accidents.
Automobile accidents are not the
only type of accident; many
accidents related to falls, bums,
choking or drowning can be
prevented just by being aware of a
