HELPED GREYHOUNDS

Regarding ``Woman led solo crusade to ban support'' (News, Feb. 13), I would like to point out that the effort to prevent dog racing in Virginia was not the solo effort of anyone. Many people were involved in this heartfelt issue, mainly greyhound owners led by Sam and Gay Latimer of The National Greyhound Adoption Program.

I am grateful to everyone who lent a hand to help these wonderful, loving dogs.
