RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia DIAL: WASHINGTON 2851 BRUCE S. BOWIE Manager Entered as second-class mail at the post office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (inadvance)___$2.00 a year YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS i By Rep. Burr P. Harrison The Joint Committee dn the Economic Report is a bipartisan committee of Congress which keeps a check on the pulse of the national economy. It is headed at this time by Senator Paul H. Douglas (D) of Illinois. Last week, the staff of this committee prepared a commentary on the current economic situation. The staff report attracted considerable attention in the press, because it predicted a surplus in the Federal budget of approximately $2,000, 000,000 by the end of the 1956 fiscal year, June 30. Such a surplus would be alnfost 10 times the excess of income over outgo which President Eisenhower -said, in his January budget message, might be achieved in this fiscal year. If the Federal budget is going to be better than balanced on June 30 to the tune of a $2,000,000,000 surplus, this is encouraging news. It should be remembered, however, that this is just one “educated guess’-in a city in which guessing both educated and uneducated, is the daily occupation of countless experts . Anyone who has been in Washington more than a month can find something on which to pose as an expert, and a few will contest his claim to the title, as to do so would expose die tenous nature of their own. This is not meant to disparage the comments by the staff of the Joint Committee on the Economic Report, which, for all we know at this moment, may turn out on June 30 to represent some of the Capital's best guessing. There is reason for caution, however, in appraising predictions of a $2,000,000,000 surplus for the fiscal year. In the first place, there has been no official change in the estimate of the Treasury, as made in January. The Treasury -apparently has seen no reason, so far, to forcast a surplus substantially in excess of $200,000,000. A Treasury spokesman indicated that it would be the middle of May before any new official prediction would be forthcoming, the reason being that the totals for the spring flood of individual income tax payments would not be known until then. In addition, it should be recalled that related surplus predictions, for the 1957 fiscal year, were based on approval of the Presi VISTA r s*» RUFUS W. WALL \ Jeweler \ Maim Strwt Phmm» »74 j Front Royal, Va. dent’s budget as submitted, including postal rate increase recommendations. While there is substantial sentiment, in and out of Congress, for/ doing something about the problem of the postal deficit, there is little sentiment, in my opinion, outside of Postmaster General Summerfield’s immediate circle, for raising the 3-cent letter to 4 cents, when first-class mail has been showing a profit on the Post Office Department’s books. The bulk of Mr. Summerfield’s new fevenue would come from this increase, and the subsidy for “junk” mail would receive much gentler treatment. In addition, President Eisenhower recently asked Congress for $547,000,000 more than requested in his January budget for defense needs, particularly in the Air Force. The Congressional committee staff which forecast a $2,000,000 000 surplus for this fiscal year stated it was basing its guess on the fact that Federal income was running about $3,000,000,000 ahead of estimates, while federal payments were only $1,000,000,000 above estimates, a net apparent gain of $2,000,000,000. Let us assume, for the moment, that the committee staff is right, and that we end the fiscal year with $2,000,000,000 extra. What are we going to do with it? The poll of 7th Congressional District voters which I conducted by mail last month showed those replying would favor, by more than 2 to 1, some reduction in the national debt before a surplus was applied to tax reduction. The committee staff report was silent on the desirability of applying surplus to debt-reduction, but it did counsel against any tax reduction. The reason given wis that very powerful inflationary forces stUl are active in our economy, and tax reductions, giving opr citizens more money to spend, merely would contribute to this inflation. I do not know what will become of this* promised surplus, but I do know that the Federal Government does not have a reputation for salting away its spare cash. Its reputation is for spending what it has and borrowing in order to spend more. If the entire surplus, should there be one, is not applied to reduction of the national debt, part or all of it will be spent by the Federal Government, unless it is returned to the citizens who paid it, for them to spend or save, as they see fit. I cannot agree with the committee staff that it would be more inflationary to place part of the surplus in the hands of citizens, though s small reduction in the heavy tax burden, than to place it in the hands of bureaucrats to spend on new Federal activities. If it develops that there is a healthy surplus, I shall support and advocate that a substantial part be returned tp the taxpayers through a tax reduction. Trial Justice Cases The Commonwealth versus: Gene A. Bailey, of Front Royal, charged With disorderly conduct in public; fined $25 and costs. Sheriff J. W. Critzer was the arresting officer.

Varsity Defeats FFA Team In Basketball In a practice scrimmage game at RCHS, the Rappahannock High Varsity overcame the FFA basketball squad by a 44-27 score. Sisk was high scorer for the Varsity as he, hit the net for 12 points* while Menefee topped the FFA boys with 14 points. The game consisted of two six minute quarters and two eight minute quarters. After leading by only four points at the end of the first quarter, the Varsity boys started hitting, and had a commanding lead by halftime. The game was characterized by the almost total absence of foul shots, only one point being scored from the foul line in the whole game, that by the FFA in the 4th quarter. Mr. Cascio and Mr. Leonard were referees. We hope this game will not shatter the FFA team’s confidence, since they will participate in the forecoming FFA tournament. Dramatic Chb Enters One-Act Festival On February 27, the Dramatic Club entered the One Act Festival at Gar-Field High School. The play “Box and Cox” which was presented here the Friday before, received a Superior rating.

This is the first time RCHS has enteral this festival. NOTICE TOSTAFF We, the editors would like to thank you all for all the help and cooperation we received for the staff dance. We believe that “Fantasy In Ink” proved many things, as well as showing us how much could be accomplished when every-' one works together, it proved that our high school can have sucessful dances, “if” everybody works together. We hope to have an orchestra this spring, so let’s all keep working. OLD GRADS Washington—Class of 1934 Marvin Bradford, Graham Hack ley, Charles B.

Mr. Biggs explained the uses of the test and how they had helpedmany students find the field of work they were most suijted for.

Chapter visited the ShenValley Meat Packing Plant at Timbervillc, Virginia, Thursday, March 1st. We were given a guided tour of the entire plant. The first stop was the bacon slicing and wrapping room. From there we were taken to the smoke room where we observed smoking and cooking of hot dogs and bologna. The next room was the potted meat room. Various other processing sections seen were the curing rooms tankage room, dried blood room, lard, aging and trimming rooms. The section that caught our interest most was the slaughtering room. It took approximately ten minutes from the time the live steer was ushered in until it was ready for the aging room. Thus ended a very interesting and profitable trip. FAD-N-FASHION Spring is here and with it, the thought of new spring clothes. One of this year’s most popular spring outfits is a print dress with a duster lined in the same print, to match. We like the silk dresses with a linen duster. Of course, you may prefer the old favorite, a suit. This year they come in more styles, color and materials than ever before. The newest fad around RCHS is collecting autographs on your saddle shoes or on a pair of light colored loafersr We expect that the next thing will be dying your bucks a pastel color. We hear if you use food coloring it is very simple. Another novel way to collect autographs is a leather belt with a brass buckle. Attached to the belt is a gold mechanical pencil to collect autographs with. It is about $1.95 at most stores. Many girls this year are wearing shoes, belt and attachable collars to match. Pastel blue shoes and belt with a blue and white striped collar is only one of the many Combinations. 1 Meet Our Faculty Mrs. James R. Johnson, now an instructor in English Literature, General Business and Physical Education, will return to the field of Home Economcs next year! at this school. 1 Mrs. Johnson went to Flint Hill Elementary School, Washington High School and graduated in the class of 1938. She then attended Madison College and graduated in 1942. She has, since graduation, taught in Edinburg, Woodstock, Washington, and Sperryv'illc High Schools and has taught Home Economics 7 years, fifth and sixth grades at Flint Hill Elementary School 1 year, and and English at Rappahannock High School for 1 year. While James R. Johnson, her husband, was attending college at . VPI, Blacksburg, Mrs. Jbhnson held a position as dietitian. We are glad Mrs. Johnson is here with us and we hope she enjoys being here as much as we like having her. Fantasy In Ink, A Success • On March IQ, the Hi-Lites staff sponsored a dance for the students and friends of RC*HS. This dance was the first sponsored by our school paper, and we hope to have many more in the future. There was a large “^urn-out”. About 60 students were present. .Refreshments were served at 10:15. The dance started at 8:00 and lasted until 12:00. «• f The gym was decorated with quill pens, ink spots, ballons, and other things pertaining to .the theme, “Fantasy In Ink". ? We feel-the dance was a success and hope to have more of the same in the near future. Do’s And Dont’s For Making Friends It’s true that you cannot make friends by: Talking about other boys about your girl friend. _ Cheating in class, you hurt no one but yourself. Being “two-faced”. Copying your pal’s homework, and not doing your own. Not speaking in the halls. Now here are some do’s to make friends and keep them: Always speak whenever you see someone you know. 1 Be polite to teachers and parents after all, you gain self-respect as well as their€* Help others when they ask you, and be interested in their interests. “Miss X” and “Mr. X” Miss X is a senior and helps our newspaper very much by typing our news. She has short brown curly hair, and is around 5* 5”. She has two younger sisters in high school. She is quite popular and we " see her in the halls usually with three other seniors. Who is she? Mr. "X is a teacher. This is his first year of teaching at RCHS and he is very popular among the students, and other teachers. He ; lives near the school and helps the students with many of their school activities. Most of his classes consist of. "eighth grade classes, Junior and Senior. Can you guess who *■ he is????

What My 4 Years Of High School Hare Meant To Me By Georgia $tandish Four years seeps a Ion* time > when you think about them; but these four y^ars haVe flown by so quickly that if’s har’d tojbelieve*1 will graduate this June. . Graduation is the day we all work and live for. Now that it has arrived I’m not glad to leave it all. After all, in four yean you really become attached to a place .•and its people! Particularly the people,, friends, classmates and teachers. They give life to a school. • I’ll never forget my teachers. They were always patient, ready and willing with kind advice. They laid the groundwork, so to speak, for my entire life to come. They’ve done their best to send out into the world good citizens. And they have done their work well. About my friends, well, all I - can say is, “My friends, I love them all". Words are inadequate t to describe what you know and loye so fdL ... All my memories are flooding back to view, the basketball games, the school dubs, the danc«, plays, the laughter, and good times, the seriousness, the studying for the exams we all feared and were never as bad as we imagined, and the smiling faces, a smiling face does wonders to a person’s morale, another lessons we learned. All these things have been mixed and sometimes beaten up together, the result, a high school graduate. ■I’m not very clever with words, but what I’m trying to say is, Thank You. Thank you RCHS, ^ friends, teachers and happy memories for preparing me for life. WHY IS IT? Why is it that: We don’t have an elevator at , RCHS? No one ever thinks of washing blackboards until asked? Everybody is always so anxious for the 3:15 bell to ring? Neville Wood always looks forward to coming to school now. Could be a new interest? Bobby Menefee always has so many Sperryville girls walking 5 paces behind him. How about it B. M. ? Jerry Gossom likes to go to - Warrenton? 1 Paula Miller likes rabbits, especially “Bunny” rabbits from Marshall? t Buddy Zinn likes his golf hat so much? MisT Blagg likes the week-end so much? Is there more than one reason? Mr Cascio likes Bermuda shorts so much? What 4-H Means to Me 4-H to me means die basis on whioh a young girl can begin her thoughts of responsibilities in future years. I began 4-H in the sixth grade. During the winter I worked Oft breads for my project. But then I had to drop 4-H because I went to Rhode Island for four months, so I couldn’t complete my project. 1 got a very bad start. Then in the seventh grade I began my projects sewing £3 ejWtrfcifyi alfteir T joined again. I made a few of my clothes and was ’very* proud of the ml Then in electricity, I learned how to make lamps from old oil lamps. We learned to replace fuses and other things. At the end of the project we went on a tour to different farms and homes which were equipped with all the modern electric appliances.Then we had a picnic afterwards. During the summer we learned to prepare meals at home. We also have 4-H supperswhich helped out projects by preparing dub meals. In the latter part of the summer I attended camp for the first time. At camp there were all sorts of sports, projects, and recreation. We stayed a week. During the eighth and ninth grades, I took about 12 different projects. Some of these I entered in the County Fair and won red ribbons. Then in November we had a County 4-H Achievement Day. I won a medal on my electric project which by this time I had taken. three years. By winning this medal, I could have 'gone to Richmond if there had been 14 girls taking fhe project. Then I joined the F. H. A., which helped very much with the 4-H- Also 4-H helped m? in many ways with my different projects in in ,Home Ec. In the first part of the summer, we had short courses at V. P. I. Many of the girlf and boys have attended and reported they have had the time of their lives. We also have an Honor Club, which is a division of the club for members who have met the requirements of good project work and many more things. In this dub we take in new members each year which have to be approved by each member, fnitiatioh takes place in A^ril. There are club, county, state, and national contents. Many of our boys and girls have entered these and won. There is a variety of projects in anything you would like to take. Also by doing good work, taking part in the activities, and keep TTT By Hootie Owl Another month and more gossip. Just think only three more months of school.. Is it really true that Ivory Altkins doesn’t like to go to dances? I don’t believe so, how about it Ivory? Now that all the college kids 'are home, will some of our girli be extremely happy? Why does Frances Walker look so happy? Dol|y Smith and Donald Gore seem to be enjoying the music an awful )ot at the dance. Could it be that they hear "Music in the Air" from what I hear Carolyn T. certainly did make use of .Leap Year at the dance, or did she??? Carolyn how’s Madison???? Betty Bruce certainly has been looking happy lately, how come, Betty??? Do you like Madison too? Glen Williams and Elmer'Foster love to knit with broken needles, so Miss Dillon was heard saying. Golly I Doesn’t Mr. Cascio look nice in Bermuda shorts? Rappahannock certainly d i d stand well represented at the Basketball Tournament with all it up you will get to become an All-Stai* which is practically the highest honor you can win. With all these opportunities and all the fun you can have I can’t think of a better way to learn the things girls and boys should know today in the field. the Bermuda shorts, j It seems there is a new fad among the boys. They are all wearing hats to classes. Br-r-r- isn't it cold??? ^ ^ ’ ‘ * Lewin Williams lorn to go to the movies on Sunday afternoon in Front Royal so I hear, and not to see movies!I Lynn Atkins and a sophomore girl seem to be dodging each other, are they afraid of going back to the “third grade”? What about this Buddy Zinn? Kurt Volkert seems to be quite popular, Huh, Girls? Miss Blagg isn’t seeing much besides Falls Church, lately is she? These Marlon Brandos I I bear Sonny Williams and Barbara are very fond of bowling! That’s al| for now! See you next month. ■' “Hootie” DID YOU KNOW The Staff may have a dance with orchestra this Spring? Miss Dillon went to Florida over Easter? Mary Ann Jenkins received a very pretty pair of pearls for an Easter present? Becky Jones was getting lots of letters from VPI? Miss Blagg won’t be “Miss” after June? Elizabeth Verner will be married in June? Most boy's favorite color is green ? Autographed shoes are a fad at RCHS? The Varsity club is going to the beach this spring? HOT JOB.

ANSWER: If a dance floor is cleared and the orchestra plays dance music while the bride and groom are still receiving, guests are expected to dance. On many occasions, the orchestra does not play dance music until the bride and groom are ready to dance. In this case, they dance once around the floor and then the ushers and bridesmaids join them, and after that any guests who want to dance do so. Senior Prom QUESTION: I have invited a boy to my Senior Prom and have paid for the tickets. After the dance, a group of boys and girls will go to a restaurant for refreshments. Should I pay for these also? ANSWER: Your partner should take care of this and undoubtedly will, although it might be well to take some money with you on the chance that he may not forsee this and may not have enough money of his own. QUESTION: Should a woman keep her gloves on during church services? ANSWER: She should keep them on. RCHS HU PARADE .

Report The total number of cases of poliomyelitis throughout the nation in 1956 is 1140 through the week ended April 7th, 1956. In Virginia through April 7 there have been four cases of polio. Nationwide over 50% of the cases have been paralytic polio. In Virginia the four cases are divided, two paralytic and two non-paralytic polio. . In years past polio in Virginia usually begins to increase in occurrence in May. “There is still time for children from the age one (1) through ten (10) to be given poliomyelitis vaccine aimed at the prevention of paralytic polio. In Virginia only this age group is eligible to receive this preventive treatment. In the field trials in 1954 the Salk Polio vaccine was 60-90% effective in preventing paralytic polio. The vaccine'being used now is thought to be even more effective. Good protective treatment is two doses of the vaccine with four (4) to six (6) weeks between doses. (The interval between the first two doses should be no longer than one year). As complete protection as possible is had when the third dose of the vaccine is given no less than seven (7) months after the second. (A third dose in less than seven (7) months gives only the same protection as the second dose). Parents and guardians have your children given the preventive treatment for paralytic polio now!

Phone Washington, 2791 ! ; f SOCIAL SECURITY . A number of farm owners in Rappahannock County are not clear on the question of whether they should report, for social security purposes, their share of income derived from crops raised by a share-cropper, according to Mr. Robert E. Parsons, assistant manager for the Alexandria social security office. Parsons stated that for social security purposes the share of the crop received by the landlord, whether in cash or in a portion of the produce, is considered rentals from real estate and is not selfemployment income that is creditable toward social security protection. Such farm owners should not include income from their share of such crops in reporting net earnings from farming. Parsons pointed out that if the farm owner and the tenant have entered into a legal partnership then each one of them would report his share of the income from this arrangement and pay the social security tax of 3% as required by law. If further information is desired contact the social security representative who will be in Washington, Virginia on the fourth Wednes-’ day of each month at the Court House at 1:00 P. M..
