Community Reporter, December 11, 1970: Richard N. Dixon Sworn Into Office

Richard N. Dixon Sworn Into Office

Community Reporter, December 11, 1970.

Richard N. Dixon, 32 years of age and the first black to assume a post on the Carroll County School Board, was sworn into office last week.

His appointment was unexpected as his name was not on the list submitted by the Carroll County School Board Nominating Federation or the list of the Democratic Central Committee.

Governor Mandel announced his appointment on November 19. Dixon attended Carroll County schools and graduated from Morgan State College in 1960.

He served as a Captain in the U.S. Army and is an investment broker in Baltimore. He and his family reside in Westminster where his two young daughters attend school.

Democratic Advocate , October 7, 1971: Fewer People Moving into Carroll county

Fewer People Moving into Carroll county

Democratic Advocate , October 7, 1971

Fewer People Moving Here - People are still moving into Carroll county, but not as fast as they used to, according to figures released this week by the county health department.

These statistics show that the rate of migration into the county dropped more than 30 per cent between 1960 and 1969 - from 20.0 to 13.4 per 1,000 of population.

In addition to the rate drop, which would occur naturally as the total population grows, the actual number of persons moving into the county annually has also dropped - by an estimated 100 per year in the same 10-year period.

Dr. James P. Earp, a sociology professor at Western Maryland College and chairman of the county's Economic Development Commission, blamed the trend on a lack of jobs and a shortage of housing.

Democratic Advocate , October 7, 1971.

The Carroll Record August 16, 1973: Tractor Pull Claims Fair's Biggest Draw

Tractor Pull Claims Fair's Biggest Draw

The Carroll Record, August 16, 1973.

Tractor Pull Claims Fair's Biggest Draw—Of all the events at the 4-H and FFA Fair, the biggest crowd drawer was the tractor pulling contest.

Some of the most powerful tractors and best drivers in the county competed in the event that lasted for several hours on Saturday and drew an estimated 1500 spectators.

All size tractors from lawn and garden tractors weighing 750 pounds to 15,000 pound stock farm tractors were on hand to complete in the various weight divisions. Along with the standard or stock tractors, there was a division of "hot-rod" tractors, usually built with a V-8 automobile engine and restricted in physical appearance only by the builder's imagination.

A 300-yard long track with yardage indicators spaced every 25 years was used as a proving ground for the machines and drivers and the Westminster Fire Company and an ambulance were on hand for safety measures and to wet down the track to keep dust at a minimum.

Democratic Advocate, December 2, 1971.

Annoying Phone Calls? Chamber Gives Advice

The Carroll County Chamber of Commerce has received several complaints recently about annoying phone calls and calls which involve aggressive and bothersome sales techniques, a Chamber press release reported last week.

To deal with calls which are abusive or which involve pranks, the safest course of action starts with positive identification of the caller, the Chamber said. If there is any doubt, ask to return the call which will give you the opportunity to check the number for accuracy.

Most importantly, never, never answer questions of a personal nature unless you are sure of the identity of the caller, the Chamber cautioned.

Democratic Advocate, December 2, 1971.

Community Reporter Jan. 11, 1974: Adult Ed Course offered on Alcohol

Community Reporter, January 11, 1974. http://tinyurl.com/y8v7r6m

Adult Education Course Offered On Alcohol Problem

Possibly the first course like it in the State of Maryland will be offered in the Carroll County School system through the Adult Education Division. The title of this course will be "Alcohol and Adolescents."

Its subject is a comprehensive look at the drug alcohol, its effects psychologically, sociologically and physically on humans, including an understanding of the disease of alcoholism, its effects on families and communities, plus a glimpse at its treatment.

This course will be aimed at helping parents feel more comfortable with communicating with their children around the inevitable contact the children will have with alcohol.

As the New Year approaches and we look back upon local history, we're reminded that the good old days weren't always that good, and the more things change, the more they remain the same:

A Dec. 30, 1971, article in the now-defunct Democratic Advocate noted that, "Unknown burglars broke into the J.C. Penny department store over the weekend, ransacked the offices, and stole a $1.59 flashlight from the basement work table, the Westminster city police reported.

The Carroll Record, July 26, 1973 Study Recommends 10 More Troopers Carroll Record

The Carroll Record, July 26, 1973

Study Recommends Ten More Troopers For County

—Ten more State Policemen are needed in Carroll County, according to a study commissioned by the county, funded by the federal government and made by the Superintendent of the Maryland State Police last fall.

Citing a rising crime rate and overall county growth, the study intended to survey the opinions of people in the county and make recommendations for improvements. Local police forces were evaluated in the report.

Though all of the municipal forces, with the exception of Westminster, were termed inadequate, the study felt they all work well with the State Police force in the county.

Town officials frequently felt their local forces were beneficial as a deterrent to crime and most wanted a marked police car around even if their overall effectiveness was inadequate.
