Rappahannock News, July 28, 1955

.1 SOME OBSERVATIONS \-i con Capt. William Weiner gave the first correct answer to last week's question. At Mt. Solon, near Harrisonburg, is held the oldest jousting tournament iti this country. This tournament has been held annually since 1821. For this week’s free subscription be the first to give the correct answer: Two Egyptian obelisks, erected in 1460 B.C. were presented as gifts to England and the United States. They now stand on the Victoria Embankment in London; and in Central Park, New York. What is the popular name of these two obelisks? '• ■ If you are a motorist, don’t forget that th« motor vehicle laws require you to give right of way to fire trucks and ambulances when you hear thfeir siren, o o o a The Flint Hill Firemen have been busy for the past few days getting ready for their carnival, scheduled for the last of next week. This if the Second annual carnival for this organization, and everyone remembers the wonderful time had by everyone at the carnival last year. < It is your civic duty to help make a success of this affair, for this is the means the firemen have of making money to pay for the equipment that stands ready day or night to protect your home and family. Don’t forget the date: August 4,5,6. ' j. ; • j t* o o o i o If you are a baseball enthusiast you will be able to see some real action at Moffett's field Sunday, July 31, whan the Flint Hill A.C. pays a visit to play the Kappahan.nock Chiefs. The New York Giants have been scouting talent that will participate in this game, and possibly their scout will be here next Sunday, so you be assured that the boys will be playing their beet. I read an article the other day criticizing the starting ;of a conservation with a comment on the weather. The author seems to think that like cussing is a sign that your vacabularly is below par, so talking about the weather is indicative of a lack of interesting thoughts. I can’t agree without a reservation or so. “Lovely day, isn’t it,” and “Good rain we had last night” have helped me out of many an awkward, pause. I believe they have likewise put the other person more at ease. In those first few comments, you can sorta feel a person out—see his attitude. • The weather’s interesting too— what more reason to talk about it, it’s filling, it’s interesting and it’s always with us. I just hope Bert Massie didn’t read this bit of sacrilege. When she talks about the weather, she means business, and when you talk she listens. Flint Hill’s Tippy Stringer can give you the exact location of every molecule of atmosphere, and even the visibility. Johnsons Plan Family Reunion The Fifth Reunion of the Red Oak Johnsons will be held Augusts 28 at Oak Hill, the old Wood home near Sperryville. (The former home of J. Walton Wood, Oak Hill is now owned by C E. "Ned” Johnson, Jr.) Its magnificent oaks, proved last year to be an excellent setting for the family gathering and it was agreed to meet there again this year. From Oak Hill there is a dear view of the old home mountain. : .>-■ - Fred Pease Seriously Injured In Plane Crash While Spraying Cornfield On Eddie Gore Farm Fred Pease was seriously injured when his plane, BT-13, crashed and burned at 11:25, Saturday morning on the N. K. G. Tholand property in F. T. Valley. Mr. Pease was spraying Eddie Gore’s corn field, having made one swipe and was turning to come back when the accident occured. Luckily, ur. jonn r. aneaa ana several other men were in the vicinity and reaching the scene minutes aftjr the crash pulled Pease from under the wreck. Some one commented “Lester Deal must have lifted a thousand pounds of airplane to get Pease out.” The other men who helped in the rescue were Stanley Dodson, Dike Quaintance, John Peyton Snead, Billy and Charlie Jenkins. The Washington Rescue Squad rushed the victim to the 'Warren Memorial Hospital, Front Royal. After examination, his injuries were determined to be a broken rib, punctured lung, face and leg cuts, in addition to burns on the leg and foot. I ne cause or rne acciaenr is undetermined. Mr. Pease, out of the oxygen tent Tuesday evening, remembers nothing of the time immediately preceding the crash. Mr. and Mrs. Pease, who operate the Ptase Airplane Spraying Service, make their home at Wakefield Service Station in Flint Hill. 1 Dudley Wood Is Honored Scout At Camp Rock Enon Dudley Wood, son of Mr. and Mrs. B. J. Wood of Flint Hill, was voted into the exclusive Order of the Arrow at Camp Roclc Enon last week. He received this singular honor by vote of his Troop No. 36. Dudley, the first boy to be admitted to the Order from this troop, attained the honor by merit 'of his superior leadership, good scouting and general excellence of character. lrie candidates were tappea ana initiated into the honor organization in an impressive ceremony, Friday evening. Other candidates from the Flint Hill troop were John S. Browning and Glen Williams. both scouts of superior standing. Only one boy is chosen each year. This was Dudley’s fourth year at camp.

Two other games were played with Troop 27, Front Royal, who won both with scores of 15-3 and (Coatiaaad aa P«|* 6) Louise Williams Leads In Votes For "Miss Wakefield” Miss Louise Williams, the Applachian Inn candidate for Miss Wakefield, runs far ahead of the field with a total of 3,868 pennies claiming her their choice.

Two Stores Burglarized Here Monday Night; Police Solve Crime Whhin Eight Honrs ; ‘ Lea Bros. Store Turns Self Service On ground hog day, February 2, in 1934, T. C. Lea opened his new Lea Brothers Store in Washington, the fifth 'in a family line of Lea Bros, stores in Virginia. The red brick store, on the comer of Gay and Jett Streets, has changed little through the intervening 21 years, with the exception of a Toy Department addi+ tion, and a gradual expanding of the variety of products handled. L. L. Lea, 86, of Lovingston, is the only living member of the original Lea Bros, organization, formed in 1899. When Mr. Lea first came to Rappahannock, in 1928, he had several years of clerking experience behind him, both6 at Lea Bros, stores in Massies Mill and Lovington. Seeing Rappahannock to be a good territory for a new store, Mr. Lea opened -a Lea Bros, store at the old Stuart store in Washington. He then purchased the site of the D. G. Updike store. The old store was torn down and ~a new Lea Bros, constructed. Ethel Holmes of Amissville and C. E. Giles of Washington were the clerks when the store opened for business. Among those ^ "who have clerked in Lea Brof. • /during its history are: Roscoe Bishop, Jafnes Lillard, C. G. and t(CoBtinuad on Pag* 7) 6 ; Rev. Cary Barker To Conduct Services At Sperryville The Reverend William Car«gr Barker, pastor of the First Baptist Church, Newnan, Georgia, will be the guest speaker at Reynolds Memorial Baptist Church, Sperry ville, for the annual revival beginning Wednesday,‘August 3. The revival services, held each night at 8 o’clock, will continue through Sunday morning, August 14. The Reverend Mr. Barker has conducted many revivals in this vicinity. In Culpeper, several years ago, the congregation was so large at the meetings, that a loud speaker was put up that the persons on the grounds, without sitting room inside, could hear the messages. He is noted for hie power to hold an audience and drive a point home. Mr.' Barker minces no words in his sincere talks. ■i. ■ " Prompt work by Sheriff J. W. Critxer, State Trooper* Buntin, Lowman, Greaver, and State Police Investigator Wilson, led to the arrest of the burglars who entered Mack’s Store and Lea Bros, store, Washington, Monday night. About 6:45 Tuesday morning. . when Jett Woodard went to open Mack’s Store he noticed that a front blind had been- forced open afid a window broken. Mr. Woodard at once summoned the owner E, M. Richards, who . notified the officers before opening Jthe store. After entering the store (discovery was made that three windows had been broken . and a door had been forced open, leading to a back room.where the safe - and large quantities of goods were kept. ■■ State Police Investigator Joan' Wilson was summoned from’ Cul- ' peper and after dusting for fingerprints the safe was opened and. > disclosed nothing missing. Several fingerprints were taken -from objects around the store, including' drink bottles a stove pokes, which had been used to force entrance ''to the rear room. Mr. Richards at this time could ■■ not determine if anything of value . (had been taken. r The next burglary scene investigated by the officers was at Lea'r .Bros. Store, where entrance had been gained through a window about ten feet from the ground on the north side of the building. When Mr. Lea opened the store „• early Tuesday morning be. noticed th»r the cash registers had been' tampered with. A more intensive investigation showed ‘doors left open and the rear door to the -' basement left open, indicating the burglars had made their exit from the store there. After a thorough investigation by the officers they felt sure both burglaries had been committed by the same parties, and they felt sure they knew them. Sheriff CrKser and Trooper Lowman went in one direction and Trooper Buntin And Investigator Wilson took another. Critzer and Lowman were the first to strike pay dirt. Within a half hour they had*; picked up Pete Atkins, who confessed to his part in the robberies and also to breaking and entering 'Merrill Motor Gompahy a few weeks ago. Atkins told the officers where they could find the ladder used in en(Continned on Page 6) » Civil Service Exam Open To Applicants For Rural Carrier The United States Civil Ser- ~f vice Commission has announced an examination to fill the position of rural carrier for the post office at - Sperryville, Virginia. j-> Applicants for, this examination must actually reside within the delivery of the above-mentioned post office and must have so resided for ' one year next preceding the doe- - ing date for receipt of applications.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING' • , ‘ ' At Washington, Rappahannock Coant; Virginia DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 BRUCE S. BOWIE.. .P»bluhe, Catered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: (ia advance) ---- *2.00 a year Virginia Code On Reckless Driving Trial Justice B, M. Miller has requested that the following sections of the Code of Virginia be published, due to the frequent misunderstanding of the statutes. Section 18-77. Same; forfeiture of driver’s license; suspension of sentence. The judgment of conviction if for a-first offense under sec. 18-75, or for a similar offense under any city or town ordinance, shall of itself operate to deprive the person convicted of the right to drive or operate any such vehicle, conveyance, engine or train in this State for a period of one year from the date of such judgment, and if for a second or other subsequent offense within ten years thereof for a period of three years from the date of the judgment of conviction thereof. If any person has heretofore been convicted of violating any similar act of this State and thereafter is convicted of violating the provisions of sec. 1875, such conviction shall for the purpose of this and the preceding section be a subsequent offense and shall be punished accordingly; smd the court may, in its discretion, suspend - the sentence during the * good behavior of the person convicted. Purpose — The purpose ot ttuj section is to deprive the convicted person of the right to secure a permit to operate a vehicle for a specified time after he has been convicted once or more than once.. The purpose of sec. 18-75 to 1879 is not only to punish drunken drivers, but to prevent such drivers from using the highways to the hazard of cither citizens. Provisions self-executing — The provisions of this section became effective only after judgments of conviction, and then are self-executing. The loss ^ of the right to operates* vehicle is no part of the judgment of conviction, or th,e punishment fixed by the court or jury, and no action or order of the court or other officer is required ** to put it into effect. It is not dependent upon evidence necessary to convict. Evidence of conviction alone is essential. * Section 19-71. — Who May Issue Process of A rrest. — A judge of a circuit or corporation court, in vacation as well as in term, a trial justice other than a civil and police justice, a clerk of a trial justice other than a clerk of a juvenile and domestic, relations court, or a justice of the peace may issue process for the arrest of a person charged with an offense. This section does not add anything to the proof of probable cause. The issuance of a warrant or the finding of an indictment does not constitute conclusive proof of probable cause. Whether the issuance of the warrant constitutes prima facie evidence of probable cause, is an immaterial question, since the burden is always on the plaintiff to negative the existence of such cause. The provisions of this section giving a certain discretion in the issuance of warrants in criminal cases, do not add anything to the general law of evidence in suits for malicious prosecution. Section 19-72. When It May Issue; What To Recite and Require. — On complaint of a criminal offense to such officer he shall examine on oath the complainant and any other witnesses, or when such officer shall suspect that an offense punishable otherwise than by a fine has been committed he may, without formal complaint, issue a summons for witnesses, and shall examine such witnesses. If such officer sees good reason to believe that an offense has been committed, he shall issue his warrant reciting the offense an{L_reqyjjaag the person accused to be arrested and brought before a trial justice of the county or corporation, and in the same warrant require the officer to whom it is directed to summon such witnesses as shall be therein named to appear and give evidence on the examination. But in a city or town having a police force, the warrant shall be directed ‘‘To any policeman of such city (or town),” and shall be executed by the policeman into, whose hands it shall come or be delivered. Section 46-209. Same (reckless driving) ; specific instances. — A person shall be guilty of (eckless driving who shall: (1) Drive a vehicle when not under proper control or with inadequate or improperly adjusted brakes upon any highway of this State; (2) While driving a vehicle overtake and pass another vehicle proceeding in the same direction, upon or approaching the crest of a grade or upon or approaching a curve in the highway, where the driver’s view along the highway is obstructed, except where the;overtaking vehicle is being operated on a highu’av having two or more designated lanes of roadway for each direction of travel or on a designated one way street or high' way. (3) Pass or attempt to pass two vehicles abreast, moving in the same direction,-except on highways paving separate roadways of three or more lanes for each direction of travel, or on designated one-way streets or highways; (’4) Overtake or pass any other vehicle proceeding in the same direction at any steam,, disel.or electric railway grade crossing or at any intersection of highways unless such vehicles are being operated on a highway having two pr more designated lanes of roadway for each direction of travel or on a designated lanes of roadway for each direction of travel or on a designated one-way street or highway, or while pedestrians are passing or about to pass in front of either of such vehicles, unless permitted so to do by a traffic light or police officer; (5j Fail to stop at a school bus stopped on the highway for the purpose of taking on or discharging school children, whether going in the same or the opposite direction and to remain stopped until all school children are clear of the highway and the bus is put in motion, provided, however, that this shall apply only to school buses marked or identified as provided in the regulations of the State Board of Education; (6) rail to give adequate and timely signals of intention to turn, partly turn, slow down or stop, as required by Section 46-233 to 46237. (7) Exceed a reasonable speed under the circumstances and traffic conditions existing at the time; (8) Fail to bring his vehicle to a stop immediately before entering a highway from a side road when there is traffic approaching upqn such highway within five hundred feet of such point of entrance, unless a "Yield Right of Wav" sign is posted; or where such sign is posted, fail, upon entering such highway, to yield the right of way to the driver of a vehicle approaching on such highway from either direction; or i. (9) Drive or operate any automobile or other motor vehicle upon any driveway or premises of a church, or school, or of any recreational facilities or in a manner sq as to endanger the life, limb or .property of any person. PRAYER FOR TpDAY Make me good ground today, O Lord, for receiving a seed to grow and make that which was planted as a thought become an action of love or a word of truth. Make me good ground this day, O Lord, and keep me at the job of cultivation so that weeds and rocks and barrenness will not cause the seed planted in me to die; through Christ. Amen. —James VV.

According to t^c National Safety Council, the number of deaths in traffic accidents for 1954 is estimated at 36,500, compared with 38,300 in 1953 and a peak of 39,969 in 1941. Over a longer period, the record is even more impressive. In 1935 there were about 26 million registered cars, trucks and buses and 36,369 people died in collisions. Now' there are more than 58 million vehicles, and yet the number of deaths is almost the same as it was 20 years ago. Although average speed on interstate highways increased from 44 mph in 1946 to 52 mph in 1953, the death rate went down 28 per cent. Offsetting speed are new safety features in cars, better roads better driving. Cars are being equipped with faster brakes, automatic turn signals, tires that rarely blow’ out. better lights and vision. Courses in driving are offered bv more than one fourth of the high schools. Officials are cracking down on recklessness. Point systems are applied to chronic offenders to deprive them of licenses. Does all this improvement mean your chances of being killed in anv given motor trip are decreasing? The answer is “yes”. Deaths per 100 million miles of driving were 15.9 in 1935, 8.1 in 1948 and 6.4 in 1954. - Air Force Notice On Re-enlistment All veterans of the Northern Virginia area, regardless of former military affiliation, who have been out of the service since July 1951 and who possess a skill needed by the Air Force can now reenlist with an attractive grade adjustment. lt was announced today by S/Sgt. Greathouse of the local Air Force Recruiting Station, located at the Post Office Building, Winchester. The re-enlistment program is part of a new policy designed by the Air Force to benefit the veteran and also insure the procurement of the much needed prior service technician. In addition the policy allows veterans with special qualification a choice of base assignment or overseas theater where he would like to serve. In the past, one of the greatest deterrents to reenlistment was the 90-day after discharge time limitation. For veteran who possess skill which are needed by the Air Force, that time has now been extended. In other skills which are classed as surplus, grade determination will depend mostly on date of seperation. Veterans reenlisting with a skill surplus to present needs will be offered the opportunity to train in a specialty of their choice which is currantly needed. At the present time all specialities are listed under six classifications ranging from needed to surplus. From time to time the classification of the specialties will be changed depending upon the needs of the Air Force. S/Sgt. Greathouse said, “This program revises our reenlistment policies completely and^all veterans should be aware of the many new benefit now available under the policy provisions.” Complete detail of the preferam can be obtained by calling at the Recruiting Station located in Post Office Building, Winchester, or by phoning 3169. : PITTS’ DRIVE-IN THEATRE FRONT ROYAL On Strasburg Road __* 5 V THURSDAY ONLY, JULY 2S “JIVARO” FERNANDO LAMAS RHONDA FLEMING BRIAN KEITH FRIDAY ONLY, JULY 29 “ALASKA SEAS” ROBERT RYAN JAN STERLING SATURDAY ONLY, JULY 30 “TAZA, SON OF COCHISE” ROCK HUDSON SUN. - MON., JULY 31 AUG. 1 “THE ROBE” RICHARD BURTON JEAN SIMMONS VICTOR MATURE MICHAEL RENNIE CINEMASCOPE TUES. - WED., AUG. 2 - 3 “SASKATCHEWAN” ALAN LADD SHELLEY WINTERS (Color by Technicolor) PITTS' PARK THEATRF FRONT ROYAL Mttinm Daily 3 P.M.

This will save trouble - and tears. Then, slip the skins off before dipping them in batter. • Unexpected guests? No need to worry about meals for them if you’ve a supply of all ready prepared foods in the freezer . .' . some easily prepared items you can freeze include baked potatoes, sandwiches, pastries and fruits.

Rappahannock, you ain’t gettin’ like ole “Napoleon.” We’ve only received requests from 8 fanners wanting 46 heifers Bangs vaccinated! Don’t forget Saturday, July 30th is final date set for farmers having heifer calves 4 to 8 months of age Bang’s vaccinated for free. Understand farmers in adjoining counties are really taking advantage of this “for free” Bangs testing and Bangs vaccinating in order to get in line. You know the day passed sometime ago when the dairyman had to have a clean herd before he could sell Grade A milk. The “hand-writing” is on the wall indicating that such will soon be a requirement for feeder-calves being shipped into Pennsylvania. We’d better get going. Get protection of the , heifeis you’re going to keep by having them Bangs vaccinated while it’s free and before the heifer gets too old. Better let your wants be known before Saturday if you don’t want to get left out. • • * Earl Combs reported this week that his herd has had two consecutive clean tests this year. Also the Greenaways’ herd is now certified. Congratulations to these two beef herd owners. . During 1954 the; official Bangs control report shows: Culpeper County—16,315 tested; 3,538 vacccinated.
