RICHMOND, Va, Jan. 9.-Wl-
liam Munford Tuck. one Of Vir-
ginia's most colorful governors,
will leave Office January 18 with
the knowledge that being chief ex-
ecutive is "a working mans job. "
ITS not any social job" he said,
land the social demands are not
decreased by the working obliga-
tions. Something needs to be done
all the time.'
The last four years under the
former marine, who likes to get
things done in q hurry but wants
them done right, have seen many
changes in statutes and in opera
tions which he either recommended
or inaugurated.
But despite his busy term, Gov.
Tuck will turn his office over to
John Stewart Battle, looking little
the worse for wear.
Except for q few more gray
hairs, the Halifax County lawyer
farmer appears about the same as
he did when he took the oath as
governor four years ago.
He will weigh out" at about
225 pounds. He still has all his
good humor and friendliness. And
at SO. he still is a young man de-
spite q political career extending
over more than 20 years.
II Gov. Tuck could turn the
calendar back to the day he ac-
cepted the responsibilities of gov
ernor, would he react differently
