VOLUME 7—NUMBER 41 MORNING, AUGUST 23, 195« SUBSCRIPTION: |2.00 PER YEAR Parents Reminded Of Immunization^Clinic Dates Apparent Apathy of Parent* To Let Children Run Riik of Contacting Disease Is Amazing Immunisation clinics will be held at the Rappahannock County Health Department on the second and fourth] Thurs. of each month at 10:00 Aj M. These clinics are for the purpose of giving polio vaccine (to those eligible) and protective against diphtheria, whooping cough, llockjaw and smallpox. The 0 through nineteen year age group and ijl expectant women are the only onp* eligible for polio vaccine in Virginia at this time. When It Does Not Happen To Us It is amazing to observe the complacency with which the public accepts situations they are not directly facing. 'The point in question is the apathy with which par ents are receiving a vaccine that will in most cases prevent paralytic poliomyelitis. Many are permitting their children to run the risk of contracting the disease rather than to have them take the three inoculations needed to bring about immunity because there is little or no polio being reported in their immediate city or county. The Poliomyelitis Vaccination Assistance Act of 1^55 was passed by the Congress in August, 1955, to provide vaccine as rapidly as possible for those whom experience has shown to be susceptible The vaccine is available through your physican or local health department; MAKE USE OF 1T^ NOW. An inoculation today may prevent polio two weeks or a montlt hense. * Polio cases to week ending Aug. 11, 1956 was 68. Total to date 1955 were 147.

Animal Homemakers’ Picnic At Castleton Enjoyed By Throng The Castleton Home Demonstration Club held its anr ual picnic Friday evening August 17th at “Castleton Lake’* on th“ farm of Ray T. Cannon. There v'ere about 100 present including ra iny children, their parentjs and grandparents. I In addition to the j excellent food, which was in abundance, those attending enjoyed fishing, swimming arid a number jof games. Children spread luncheon cloths in the glare of Automobile headlights and ate their fopd there, tripping back to the long picnic table for second helpiigs and toasting marshmallows over a big campfire. In addition to the fami liar faces of old residents, there were new faces but all seemed to bv of “the crowd” perfectly at horn* making one think of the lines in the Home makers Creed, “Have our homes reach out in service to the communities and help unite the people.” | Regret was expressed tjhat Jan and Maria Lavrincet aijid their son. Karol, the most recenti arrivals in the community, w^re hot able to attend. The Lavrinc|eks are from Rumania and were id a German refugee camp until Ij-t. Gen.

The Charlottesville District s responsible for the period from Noon Aug. 18th to Noon Aug. 31st. All of the churches of the district are helping to carry out , this Vigil and we have been assigned the hours from 4:00 P. M. to Midnight on Saturday, Aug. 25th. To my knowledge this prayer vigil has not been broken since it started on October 2nd; in Danville when Bishop Garber started it and we certainly do not want to break it now. Each church has been assigned two hours of this vigil as follows: Willis Chapel, 4:00 to 6:00 P. M. Sperryville, 6:00 to 8:00 P. M. Washington, 8:00 to 10:00 P. M. and Flint Hill, 10:00 to Midnight. It is hoped that every person of every faith in the comhnmity where this is being held will go to the church sometme during the two hour period and that they will spend some time at the altar in the spirit of prayer. Every person in every church is asked to do all in their power to not only be there for prayer, but get several of their friends to be there also. Do not let one minute during the two hours* pass without someone at the altar in prayer. It is suggested that arrangements be made in the churches for lighted candles and soft organ music where this is possible. We ask that the different W.S.C.S. and M.Y.F. groups try to take a definate period of time their church has been allotted. Square Dance Slated By Rescue Squad The Washington Rescue Squad is sponsoring a Square Dance at the Washington Auditorium on Friday August 31st. Vance Butler and his Band will furnish the music. If you attended the Squad’s dance last year we are certain you will be on hand on the 31st. If you were unfortunate and didn’t get to the last one, don’t miss this one. The “Kiddie Corvette” will be given away and you may have the3 lucky number. $1.00 per person. Food, cold drinks and coffee will be for sale.

Lebanon Softball team won the trophy in the Shiloh Association Softball Tournament last Saturday by defeating Culpeper Baptists'8 - 7. It had advanced to .the finals by winning: over Stanardsville, regular season champions, by a seore of 5 - 2 in the semi-finals on the strength of 2-hit pitching of Fred Duncan. Both Stanardsville and and Culpeper had bealten the winners twice during the regular sea- - son, while losing none, but the Woodvifte-Mt. Lebanon team won when it counted most. In besting the Culpeper team, _ Woodville.* Mt. Lebanon had to come from behind the last inning when, with two men out, two walks and three hits put them one ^ run ahead. In a defensive maneuver Robert Thornhill was brought in from the outfield to play third base, and turned, in two assists and a brilliant catch of a foul ball to preserve the one-run lead. “Buddy" Thornhill and Carson Jenkins got three hits each for the. winners, two of ThornhiQs’s hits being triples. In a semi-final game the Amlssville Junior entry laid down a barrage of hits to down Woodville - Mt. Lebanon Juniors 94. Amiissville had beaten Washing- - ton and Woodville - Mt. Lebanon had ousted Stanardsville in the quarter finals. A combination of fine pitching, good fielding, and heavy hitting brought victory to the Amissville team.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2851 ' » DUSTIN G. REYER, Editor and Manager BASIL C. BURKE, JR. A WILLIAM F. EARLS, Owners and Publishers Entered as Second Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance).»2.00 PER YEAR LETTER TO THE EDITOR Harrisonburg, Va. ( August 21 1956 Dear Editor: As a former member of the Washington Fire Department and as one interested in the community I would like to congratulate Mr. Luther Payne, Chief, and his coworkers on their parade Saturday night. Its success, as proved by the crowds lining the streets, was evidence of their hard work. We hope that this will be the first in a long line of parades, that will grow bigger and better with the years. Again ' we congratulate the chief on his success. Sincerely, . . “Bruce” Bruce S. Bowie Opinions Sought On Pr 1 Parcel Post Regulation Changes Postmaster General Arthur E. Summerfield announced today that the Post Office Department plans to make an important change in postal regulations to provide new convenience for patrons mailing packages. Patrons would no longer be required to mark on the parcels the words: “may be opened for postal Inspection.” The change would apply to sealed fourth class or parcel post packages, and sealed third class parcels (those containing merchandise and weighing less than 8 ounces). This “may be opened” endorsement never has been necessary for parcels sent by the higher fiirstclass postage rate, and hence this planned endorsement change does not affect such parcels in any way. The Post office Department expects to put the change on the third and fourth class parcels into effect later this year, ffrobably in early afll, in time to give patrons the extra convenience in time foe Christmas mailings this year. However, it will not become final until postal patrons have had a chance to express their views on it. Patrons wishing to submit views to the Post Office Department on this matter may do so by addressing them to Assistant Postmaster General Norman R. Abrams, Bureau of Post Office Operations, Post Office Department, Washings ton 25, D. C. until September 15. The proposed change will be “one of the most significant eliminations of red tape” in mailing practices involving parcels in several decades, Mr. Summerfield predicted. Since 1921 postal patrons have been required by postal regulations when sending a parcel post or third class mail package sealed — Notice — We are pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. D. W.

Hartman Memorials Telephone 4-2573 459 Noll Driye Harrisonburg, Va (most such packages have been sealed In recent years) to place the “may be opened’’ inscription on the package. “In effect, any parcel may be mailed sealed now without labels, notations, endorsements and similar red tape referring to the opening of such parcels. If the patron wishes the package not to be subject to postal inspection, he merely sends it first class, preferably ’marking it as ‘first class mail.” Flint Hll-GordonsriUe Combination Wins All-Star Game, 2 -1 A ninth-inning single by Bugs Jenkins, driving across the winning run, and brilliant relief pitching by Frank Riley provided a thrilling climax to the intra-league AllStar. game of the Blue Ridge League. Gordonsville and Flint Hill, 1st and 3rd place teams in the league, opposed Stanardsville, Orange, and Rappahannock, holders of 2nd, 4th and 5th spots respectively. The game was played under the* lights at Orange. As the 2-1 score indicates, the game was charactertted by the brilliant pitching of all six participating pitchers. Thhe Flint HillGordonsville squad limited their opponents to only two hits, while they collected only four. Flint Hill’s Frank Riley was the winning pitcher, while Deane, of Stanardsville, was charged with the loss. F*or the first three innings, the mound opponents were Gordonsville’s Johnny Davenport and Scott Knighton of Orange. Knighton pitched hitless ball and fanned two, while Davenport struck out four and gave up one base hit When the 4th inning got underway, Flint Hill’s Lickliter took the mound against Marvin Miller, of Orange, and the pitcher’s duel continued. Miller went the full three innings, but Lickliter ran into trouble in the sixth when, with one out, two walks, a hit batsman, a wild pitch, and a passed ball resulted in the game's first run. Frank Riley of Flint Hill, then came in to relieve Lickliter. With runners on first and second, Riley struck out the next two batters to retire the side. In the 7th, Deane, of Stanardsville, took the mound, and allowed only one runner to reach base un PLUMBING and HEATING CONTRACTORS Sales, Installations Repairs PLUMBING FIXTURES HEATING EQUIPMENT OIL BURNERS WATER HEATERS G.

listings For New Sperrjrvifle Directory To Close On September 18tfF— Operators Kept Their Own Phone Directories Way Back In 1890! BIG CHANGE—Shown comparing • 1926 directory with one wed by today's operator* ere J. Warren Dun•ton, local manager, Culpeper Aren* and Mrs. A M. Broyles, Chief Operator; Mrs. Qedl Taylor, in formation operator, with back to camera handles a query while Miss Mary Frances Hawkins, information operator, holds the old directory* >' Back in the 1890’s, everyone in SperryVille knew the telephone operator by her first name, and vice versa, there were no telephone directories printed for the public. If you didn’t know Nellie Jones’ number and ha'd a choice bit of gossip for her, you rang the operator and asked her to ring Nellse. Each operator kept her own personal directory—a small notebook in which she wrote the names and numbers of the subscribers. Warren Dunston, the local telephone manager for .the Culpeper area, came into possession ofr-a 1926 Culpeper Directory the other day. , It’s exactly 30 years old and lists 1,674 Culpeper, Madison, Orange, and Sperryville subscribers. That compares with more than 10,264 in the current 1956-56 directory for the entire Culpeper and Orange Areas, including listings in the alphabetical and classified sections, according to Mr: Dunston. The 1926 directory did not have a classified directory; the present directory has a complete classified telephone section so that Sperryville subscribers can find listed under the proper heading any article or service that they may need. On Tuesday,'Sptember 18th, the 1956 - 1957 directory will close Richmond Road Mrs. J. R. Latham and her two children, Judy and “Cliffic” and Miss Allie Cooksie were luncheon guests of Mrs. N. P. Anderson of Culpeper on Monday. Mrs. O. W. Gilbert was a guest Sunday of her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Latham at “Horner Hill”. Monday evening Mr. and Mrs. O. VV. Gilbert Jr., were guests in the Latham home. Richmond Road is experiencing something of a real estate boom with one new home completed and two others that will be ready for occupancy in the near future. to the public, according to Mr. Dunston. He, thus, urges all subscribers to contact the local business office before that date, calling Culpeper 9921, if they desire an additioon or deletion in their present listings. “The new directory is expected to contain more listings than the present directory with the tn. creased number of telephones having gone into subscribers premises during the past year," said Mr. Dunston. Aside from the Bible, statisticians say that the phone books are the most widely consulted publications in the world. Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Hitt will move into their new home soon. Mr. and, Mrs. Sam Woodard and Mr. and Mrs. Bunny Settle hope to get into theirs before cold weather. The three homes are located about lVfc mil« from Ben Venue and are about V£ mile apart.

In Memoriam In loving remembrance of our dear son and brother, Russell Lee Racer, who departed this life two years ago, Aug. 26, 1954. Today recalls sad memories of a of a loved one gone to rest; And the ones who think of him today, are the ones who love him best Often when the days are brightest, there’s a gloom that steals into our heats. For it brings back sad memories Of the day we had to part.. God needed one more lamb. Amid his shining band. He came and took our loved one. To join the heavenly band. The flowers we place upon your grave, May weather and decay, But love (or the one .that sleeps beneath, Will never fade away. Could you ask if we miss you, Yet it fills our hearts with pain. But your spirit sweetly whispers. Courage, we shall meet again. We cannot tell the next who may fall, Beneath the chastening rod; One must be first. Oh! may we all. Prepare to meet our God, May thy rest be in peace. Mother, Father, Sisters and Brothers TOOLS AND 1 HARDWARE. Just Received...
