SOME OBSERVATIONS PRO pnt Q'N .mi :~m > ;4v :«XSCXSOCK Rappahannock has alwaysdrawn a nod iof recognition from horse lovers, when her namei was mentioned. However, the! Point-toPoint Races, sponsored annually by the Rappahannock Hunt, are fast gaining for the county 4 even better seat in the world of horsemanship. They draw the best horseflesh in this area and arie attended by record crowds each year. Every year sees an increase in classes and in entrants. This growth in popularity did not just happen. It was brought about largely by the hard work of the members of the Hunt. We wish for them this year fast hard riding and clear skies. O O ‘ O O ' Be the first to answer correctly this question for; a freej subscription to the News: What was the first horse to win the Rappahannock Bowl, at the Point-to-Point Races, and who fvas his rider? o ooo ■ We received so many (jonflktihg answers to last week’s question that we began to doubt our own answer. To put everybody’s mind at rest we phoned directly to an authority that we felt sure would have no doubt as to the answer. This authority was the Athletic Director at Aldvison-Broaddus in Philippi, West Virginia where Carl Hartman, ‘ ace player, attends college. >asketball He confirmed our answer by telling us the nir that Hartman remains tion’s top scorer. This is his fourth year in college. He has made 1,018 points this year with one more game to play. He also broke the nation’s record in> foul shooting40 out of 40. The points made during his career total $,255. In newspaper accounts he is often not mentioned due to the fact that his college, Aldvison-Broaddus, is a small one, and thus he, Hartman, is not considered in the: running. However, Hartman, as pf February 24th, held top scoring honors. • -4-. o o |o o I In National 4-H Club week-— March 5-12—we salute die individual 4-H'er,, his adult leaden, and the 4-H ideal itself.

West Phillips and family who: occupied the house escaped' injury^- How^ ever, all their personal possessions except those clothes that they wore and a few pieces of furniture and dishes, were burned. The blaze started upstairs and was discovered by Norman Phillips when he heard gun shells explodr ing and went to investigate. The Amissville and Warrenton Companies were called but were unable to sAve the dwelling; however, they (protected the out buildings nearby, i . , . Through the generosity of individuals who have donated the use of a house, clothing, furniture, food and money and a donation from the Methodist Church congregation, their honpe has been reestablished.

High School will pit their driving skills against time in a series of tests Monday, March 7, 1955, H. B. Winfrey, principal, announced today. j| Several students' will drive a specially equipped demonstration car at 20 miles per hour and make emergency stops. Other students will measure the stopping distance. The tests are designed to get rid of the foolish notion that a cat can “stop on a dime.” . The car is equipped! to measure stopping distances accurately. An emergency signal light is mounted on the hood and three revolvers are fastened on the front bumper. Aimed straight at the* pavement, the guns fire bullets of yellow paint to mark points! at which drivels (1) see the emergency signalf (2) slam on the brakes, and (3) stop the car. The automobile is supplied by die Farm Bureau Insurance Companies of Columbus, Ohio, and Lynchburg, Va. A safety engineer for the firms rides beside each driver and operates the equipment kt The companies’ engineers have staged similar demonstrations hey fore 3600 schools in die eastern United States. Monday’s, demonstration will take place on Mt. Salem Avenue, just in frint of the school, shortly after a* 10 a.m, assembly. The public is cordialljt invited.

Following the ordination, whidi is in charge of the Shiloh Association, the Slate Mills Church will honor him with a reception. THIS DEVICE PROVES YOU CANT “STOP ON A DIME" m JOSEPH I. TAYLOR, safety engineer for the Farm Bureau Insurance Companies, will give explosive proof Monday, March 7 that you can’t “stop on a dime.” He’ll let students at Rappahannock High School drive the demonstration car to see- how quickly they can step at 20miles-an-hour. The three revolvers on the bumper will fire to mark the pavement when the driver (1) sees the stop signal, (2) slants on the brakes, and (2) brings the ear to a dead stop. * “COW-DAY” SPEAKER Dr. 5. L. Kaluon Monday, March 28th has been earmarked as “Cow-Men’s Day" in Rappahannock. The County Livestock Committee is much concerned over the reproduction problems confronting the commercial cow-men. With a stiff ration between prices paid and prices received making a profit is mighty hard and therefore the committee headed by J. Rodcs Brown, Sr., feels that attention must first be, focused on reproduction- in our cow herds after that it is a matter of size and quality of the feeder calve produced interwoven* with management efficiency. For these reasons the general theme of the program arranged for Cow-Men’s at Sperryville School on March 28th will be reproduction. A high percentage of , calves dropped in a short period^ is the first must. * : A slate of the best speakers in the state has ranged, among them being Dr. S. L. Kalison, Livestock pitease Specialist, V. P. I. Agricultural Extension Service. '* fj j •!; Dr. Kalison was born fo New York Oty. He received hi£ B.

Budget Calls For fio Levy Increase • A tentative budget, which called . for no increase* in the $325 levy, was considered at the March meeting of the Board of: Supervisors held Wednesday. A Sheep claims of Puller Hughes and Mrs. Eastham were upheld. The various bills were checked and ordered paid. P. D. Coldiron, Resident Engineer, asked the abandoning of a section of road, and the relocation of other roads both measures necessitated by relocation of roads while working on Route 729, south of Ben Venue. The intersection to be abandoned is on route 622 and. would cause no inconvenience to patrons if abandoned. A. C. Latham moved the pass- ^ age of these resolutions; Eddie} Estes seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. Ray Cannon 4 asked that the 9/10 mile gap on route 650, which for several years - ' has had dead end signs on either end, be opened and worked preparatory for use. Several year* . ago Mr. Cannon had appeared before the Board asking that a sec- , tion of road including this 9/10 of a mile section be worked over under this secondary system- Work was begun on this road but was ■Si stopped due to an individual refusing to move a fence.

BOWIE . .... ./>*/*»*.' a* *eeond <IaM mail matter at the post • shcc at Waaluuiaeo.i Virginia <UBSrRjPTION • advance) $2.00 a year f Letter To Governor On Red'Cross Work .My dear Governor Stanley: The thousands of Red Cross volunteers in the Commonwealth of Virginia consider it a privilege to present you with a copy of the Annual Report of the American .National Red Cross for the year enffding June 30, 1934. This re• port reflects detailed information of .the varied programs of service American Red Cross volunteers are rendering to this state and the nation. We are especially proud of the nature and extent of Red Cross service being rendered on a daily . basis by 118 Red Cross chapters in Virginia. An 'indication of the extent of the services of volunteer ^workers to those in need is the fact that they devote'd a total of 271,984 hours to Red Cross work during the past year.^Your Re®. Cross volunteers have also brought relief to victims of disaster, donated’ blood and helped to administer a blood collection program for civilian and defense needs, provided assistance to members of the armed forces, veterans and their families; - offered self-help training courses in first aid, water safety and home care of the sick, and educated young people in the value of good citizenship. , One of the major responsiomucs of the Red Cross is die care of r~ disaster victims. Red Gross expend itmr for disaster relief in Virginia amounted to $18,637.79 and financial aid was given to 125 families in five disaster operations. In each case where financial assistance was given, advisory committees of local citizens reviewed the proposed award before it was made. This assistance was an outright gift of the American people through their contributions to the American Red Cross. Another obligation of primary concern to the Red Cross is to provide service to the men and women in the armed forces and their dependents as well as 'to veterans. The chapters in Virginia last year gave assistance to 49,827> _ (members of the armed forces and (veterans. Financial assistance was given to 3,812 individuals and • announced to $114,302. The collection of blood for military and civilian needs continued to be a major enterprise for Red Cross chapters. Seventyrfive chapters in Virginia are participating in the Blood Program. Last year 55,731 pints of blood were transfused to the citizens hospitalized in Virginia and an undetermined number <Jf additional pints were provided for Virginia, citizens hospitalized in the District of' Columbia and other localities outside of the state. One of the most important services of the Red Cross is preparing youth, the leaders of tomorrow, for responsible citizenship. Through the Junior Red Cross, 452,320 students in 1,424 elementary and high schools in Virginia are conducting their own programs of service to <he community, schools, military and veterans hospitals. They are promoting friendship and understanding in the young people of other lands by exchanging letters, gift boxes, school art and music. In addition, the Junior Red Cross members plan an important part in the adult chapter programs. Due to the large number of drowning* and accidents each year, it is exceedingly important for the .public to be trained in first aid and water safety techniques. Many of the chapters within our state gave major attention to this.training. A total of 6,953 youngsters participated in the annual “Learn To Swim Program” in Virginia which enjoys the cooperation and support of the State. Department of Education. Chapters also issued life saving certificates to 2,371 persons. In first aid classes, 14,548 persons learned what to do when accidents occur and 1,867 women received training in home care of the sick. May I take this occasion to express for the American National Red Cross to you and the other state officials in Virginia our most sincere appreciation for your excellent cooperation during the past year., ; > ' Sincerely yours, W.

Being prepared to face any eventuality is a wise course to follow. Many of us were brought up on adages that stressed the value of always being ready and what could happen if we were not. Sometimes We may question the value of making advance preparations for an event that may not occur. But when we are dealing with the lives and health of our children, nobody can challenge our duty to be fully prepared. Right now tens of thousands of health officials, physicians, school authorities and lay volunteers all over the country are planning;, and preparing for a polio vaccine program that may start in April. Thje word "“may” is the crux of the situation. We still do not know if the Salk polio vaccine, given to 440,000 children last spring, prevents paralytic polio under conditions of natural exposure. We will not know the answer until the scientific evaluation report is issued sometime in April. But we cannot wait until that late date before making full preparations for the possible vaccination of first and second grade school children throughout the nation. If the vaccine is licensed by the Federal Government, it should be given before the next polio season starts, to protect as many children as possible.. Health Officers feel this responsibility so keenly that they are making plans in advance, arranging for supplies now, while we are still in the waiting period for knowledge of results of last year’s trial of the vaccine. The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis has taken a calculated financial risk by, contracting to purchase a supply of vaccine to keep production going during the waiting period and thus insure that vaccine would be on hand immediately after licensing. Vaccine purchased by the National Foundation would be offered to children in first and second grades of all schools and to those in the trial groups in 217 areas last spring who did not receive vaccine at that time. They have been selected because of high polio incidence in their age group and their accessibility through • schools. Additional amouhts of vaccine also will be available to physicians through usual channels. Unfortunately, word of current planning may give the impression that those in charge actually know the vaccine is effective. This is not the case. No one knows the 'answer-yet, not even workers at t the Polio Evaluation Center in Ann Arbor, Michigan. But “Always Prepared” is a good motto for crucial situations. The advance planning being done now is an example of that motto wisely being put into practice. to Daniel Noce and Mildred W. Noce; 1182.2 acres in Jackson District; B and S. From D.

Plans Underway To Renovate Cemetery We are taking this means of appealing to the relatives and friends of those who have loved ones buried in this cemetery, for donations. To renovate the old burial. grounds and to fence and beautify the new addition is going to take at least $150.00 right away for fencing materials arid a gate. We hope that the response to this appeal will be generous enough that we will be able to replace many of the, markers which are misplaced or have disappeared completely. Through the generosity of Mr. itnd'Mrs. Luther North our community now has adequate burial space for the anticipated needs for many years to come. f Their contributions of land ad joining the old cemetery will jusjt about triple tbe size of it. For this and to them we all give ahearty and sincere vcite of thanks. j .
