The Summers County
Sheriff's Department staged a
raid Tuesday afternoon at two
local schools, but came up
nearly
Eventhough they came away
nearly emptyhanded after an
elaborate raid Tuesday after-
noon, area lawmen and school
officials expressed pleasure at
the outcome. But Gus and Josh
seemed glad it was over. They
were the main characters in the
raid. Gus, a German Rotweiller
and Josh, a German Shepard,
are "narc" dogs.
They were especially trained
to search for drugs, guns, and
explosives, and to track. Gus
was originally trained in Balt-
imore as was his handler, Eddie
Shaffer, a Lieutenant with the
West Virginia Department of
Corrections. Shaffer now trains
dogs and handlers in a fourteen
week course at Huttonsville
Correctional Center.Shaffer,
Josh's handler Jeff Hollen and
HCC Superintendent William
Whyte were invited to Summers
County Sheriff Bob J. Maddy.
The Huttonsville Officers and
dogs recently took part in a raid
at Phillip Barbour High School
in Barbour County where they
found drugs and drug related
items in seventeen lockers.
According to Whyte, the
school officials there were try -
ing to make a point with the
students and .dealers, the dogs
would find any narcotics on the
school grounds, no matter how
well hidden. Whyte said the
Phillip Boabour raid caused a
"shock wave" throughout sur-
rounding counties a students
quickly took an interest in an
early Spring cleaning. "It was
the intention to slow down the
use and traffic on the school
grounds", Whyte said.
Sheriff Maddy said he
conferred with School Super--
intendent "Jimmy" Tassos and
the school principals before
contacting Phillip Gwinn,Super-
intendent of the state Women's
Prison at Pence Springs. Gwinn
then contacted Whyte and the
operation was planned. Only a
handful of people knew about
the raid until it was underway
about 3:30 PMTuesday.
The dogs and handlers first
went to Hinton High School
where the dogs "set up" (show-
ed their handlers they'd found
something) at about six lockers.
A search found nothing at the
first locker. The handler ex-
plained that the scent was their
for some reason; perhaps a
student had handled marijuana
and then his books, leaving the
scent of the "grass" on the
books. The second locker also
proved to be a dud. But the third
set-up at a locker back-to-back
with the second turned up about
a tablespoon of marijuana in a
small plastic bag.
Set-up four frustrated dogs,
handlers and deputies alike as
!
Gus insisted there was some-
thing there but a thorough
search found nothing. Number
five was another false alarm, or
rather a false target. Gus found
a locker containing a scent he'd
been tought to seek out. A
search turned up no drugs, but
there was a cap pistol in the
bottom of the locker.
Before leaving the building,
Lieutenant Shaffer asked to
make another pass down the
main hall. Gus set-up again.
This time the deputies found a
tiny stem and two or three bits
of finely chopped "pot".
Tassos and Maddy both
seemed pleased, if a little sur-
prised, that nothing more was
found. Maddy said the use of
narcotics at school was minimal
with only six indications of use
in a school with a student body
of over nine hundred.
The dogs were then taken to
Talcott where they "set-up"
only twice with an enrollment of
235 in grades seven through
twelve. Parents should be
aware that, since the dogs can't
always locate the source of the
scent exactly, as many as eight
lockers were opened everytime
the dogs "set-up". After watch-
ing the dogs work, everyone
present seemed to feel that if
there was anything to be found,
the dogs would have found it.
Whyte said that dogs of this type
are so reliable that the U.S.
Supreme Court has ruled thaT
IF A DOG "sets-up" it consti-
tutes probable cause for obtain-
ing a warrant. "If a dog misses,
its the handlers fault nearly one
hundred per cent of the time.
The handler may. have been
trying to anticipate or out think
the dog and not seen the dog's
signal. Each dog is different
and the handler had to learn to
work with that dog."
Shaffer added that "It takes
fourteen weeks to train the
handlers and four to six weeks
to train the dogs." He said that
a dog trained to search for
bombs will "set-up" on a jar of
marischino cherries because a
nitrate compound is used in
their manufacture. The lining of
a thermos bottle contains some
type of nitrogen compound as do
some paints. The handler has to
be aware of this.
The training course at
Huttonsville is open to all law
enforcement agencies in the
state to help prevent duplication
of facilities and costs, Whyte
said. Shaffer recommended
that any interested agency first
apply for the course and then
pick a handier and let that
handler pick his dog. Shaffer
said that many of the dogs at the
Huttonsville Correctional
Center were obtained from the
dog pound. Most are German
Sheppards, although Gus is a
Rotweiller and they also have a
Weimeraner.

Lincoln High School students
of Summers County have now
joined hands in order to give
honor to Lincoln High School
and the teachers. The first
reunion for Lincoln will be held
May 30,. 1979. The school was
built in the year of 1997 and
closed in the year 1963 after the
integration of Summers Co.
Schools. Lincoln was then turn-
ed into a vocational school of
nursing and for the G.E. D Test.
It was a small building but had
a large heart for teaching and
learning. We are hoping to have
a large success but the only way
is to get support from every-
one. So we are asking anyone
that may know of some stud-
ents that may have attended
Lincoln to please get in touch
with Mrs. Edith Goode corres-
