student friends, money for the; ]^wm^itb^Gtves Scftopl Scoreboard At its regular meeting on September J 28th, the Rappahannock Lions Club made a donation which thrilled each member of the Rappahannock County High School body, faculty and all school when they appropriated for an electric scoreboard basketball games. Though the Lions would be too modest!to mention it, we feel compelled to say that in making the donation, the Lions Club completely depleted their treasury, and will, of necessity, enter into several fund raising activities. We hope all interested friends will lend a hand to the [Lions. Rappahannock County High School] is not always in such dire straits i it has fund-raising projects of its own. The fact that they desperately need help now is because the accumulated school funds had to be ysed to help pay for bleacher seats jfor the gymnasium. The County School budget was estimated so closely that, while there was money'|to complete the actual building program, such accessories as the bleacher seats, at a cost of $3800 could jbe only partially paid for. Being absolutely necessary' for seating at the basketball games, at which ;tfie school raises a large part of its athletic fund, there could be no delay in the purchase of the seats, j Basketball and baseball uniforms are, badly needed. The dubious distinction of having patches on every baseball uniform is ours. We use “oiirs” because, of truth, it is our school, of which we are all proud.; Rappahannock County High School shall work for itself and begs the patience and aid of all in* terested citizens and organizations. There is much to he dorielif we all pitch in, as the Lions have done, we will surely accomplish it. Republican Meeting The regular meeting if the Rappahannock Republicans will he held Friday, October 7th at 8 pjn. in the lrire House, at Washington, Va. All are cordially invited. NOTICE The ladies of Reynolds Memorial Baptist Church in Sperryville announce shat they will hold their annual Harvest Dinner on Saturday, October 22nd.

Farm Bureau To Make Awards In line with its firmly established “Grass-roots Policy”, a policy that endeavors to assist individuals to express their views in a group and to create an awareness of Community, County, State and National problems, the Virginia Farm Bureau, according to Gen. Daniel C. Noce, President of the Rappahannock Chapter, Virginia Farm Bureau, is asking all nondaily Virginia newspapers to participate in an educational program relating to individual freedoms, and it is his hope that the Rappahannock News will cooperate with the “Authors of Liberty” program. Genpral Noce said in part, “Many important issues face our citizens this election year, local, State, National and international issues. One of the big deterrents in the path of solving these problems is the lack of interest in..and unContinued cn page eight Updike Places Third Lyle Updike, Rappahannock’s representative on Virginia’s 4-H Livestock Judging Team, made third highest individual score at the recent Atlantic Rural Exposition.

Garage Entered jeco»J lime Russell Brothers Garage in Flint Hitt, Va. was robbed Thursday night, September 29 for the second time in a ma’tter. of a few weeks. This time $170 in'cash was stolen when theives broke open a large iron safe in the office. , Indications are that more-than one person was involved, for after entering the rear of the building through a window, the acetylene tanks and torch from the garage, were dragged to the office windowin an apparent attempt to workon the safe with them. However, they were not successful with that method so the combination knob was chisled off and the inside of the lock driven out with a punch, allowing the heavy door to swing free._ The robbery was discovered at 7:30 in the morning when Wallace Russell came to work, and he notified officers at once. On September 2, the garage, owned and operated by Emory and Wallace Russell, was entered and $30 in cash, cigarettes and a fireman's white shirt were taken. Since then one unsuccessful attempt was made to break into the building. Bleachers Arrive For New High School One day last week a big trailertruck from Champaign, Illinois rolled onto rhe high school grounds loaded with new bleacher seats fdr the auditorium-gymnasium. Under the direction of the driver of the truck, skilled by factory training in handling this tvpe of equipment, Coach Larry Bolvard and some of the boys unloaded and stacked the different steel forms and the w oden seats, and steps according to proper arrangement. Two days later a representative of the company holding the contract for the sale and installation of the seats appeared at school and immediately went to work, again assisted by students, janitor, and Mr. Bolyard. During study hall periods, physical education periods and at night the work progressed. The job was completed over the weekend arid the seats are up. Like the gymnasium-auditorium itself, the seats present a most pleasing and attractive sight. More than one visitor, familiar with high school building in the state has made the identical remark, “This is one of the most beautiful auditorium-gymnasiums in Virginia.” Particular credit is due, and here by given to all who had a part in the erection of the bleacher seats. The students who participated and donated their entire pay for the job to the athletic fund are: Lee Thornton, Louis Moore, Lari Lillard, Joe Brown, Roy Jenkins, Jonas Jenkins, Bobby Clater, Richard Jenkins, Robert Armentrout, Thomas Williams, Butch Browning, J. G. Russell, Richard Belch, Herbert Peverili, Bud Settle, Roger Anderson, Richard Burke and Robert Switzer.

Bill Coffman said he drove over from Front Royal the other day for a few hours of relaxation at Rock Mills “Heart of the World.” • • '• * Speaking of Rock Mills reminds me of Ed Pawley and in turn the Culpeper Players who are engaged in staging another play to be presented soon. This one Is a satire concerning election. Very timely subject. The Plajers now have their own theatre. Use of the old school at Brandy has been granted them. We’ll be looking forward to seeing this presentation. When writing of progress and development in the county last week, I purposely omitted the latest to save for this week. It is Jackson Acres, a sub-division in Amissville, being developed byfather and son, Cletus and William Printz. First thing I know I will have some new neighbors. What a vast improvement just to get the honeysuckle and bushes from the lot vacant for so long, which has been a fire trap for years. It has been burned over several times and once the window sill of my house caught fire from it. * * * * There are so many worthy causes to which we might cjonate, but it is almost impossible to give to them all. I’ll stick by my grandmother’s old saying “charity begins at home’’ and give what I have to the fund for basketball uniforms for the high school (guess I am just a little partial to basketball and to youngsters), and help the Lions Club in any way that I can for they' do a lot of good work here in the county, as well as our state. Hope lots of other folks feel as I do. • * * * Was talking to a grade school teacher recently and she told me she had asked her pupils to write down what they considered was a good balanced meal. One child had written meat, a couple names of vegetables and then meat again. When asked why meat was on the menu twice the child said “Oh, that’s the second helping.” • • « • Those who try to do something and fail are infinitely better than those who try to do nothing and succeed.

Jtion'l 3>e*t By C. B. Palmer The regular meeting of the Rap. pahannock Lions Club was held September 28 at Hampton Inn. This was the second meeting in succession that an almost perfect attendance was recorded. Lion President Wolf attended a zone meeting in Manassas so the meeting was called to order by the Vice President, Jim Bill Coates. Lion Luther Stuart announced that he had made a preliminary investigation in regard to the need for eye glasses for the needy. While rto immediate action was taken on this, he was instructed to continue his investigation and report to the club at a later date. We feel that the highlight of the meeting was the guarantee to purchase an electric scoreboard for the high school Athletic Association This project will be financed through such projects as broom sales, fruit cake sales and and other fund raising endeavors. The local club takes great pride in assisting the high school students ir» their work toward a well equipped athletic program. We also feel that the students should be complemented as well as supported in their own efforts in this work. We would like to remind all members that with the coming of October, the time for the supper meeting will be moved to seven p.m. * * * * A bachelor is a man who is crazy to marry, but realizes it in time.

Farm Bureau Continued from page one derstanding of these issues by all of our citizens.” “The Little Home Paper”, some times the only newspaper that reaches the small farm family, can be most helpful in alerting many people of the dangers of our times. “They can,” he continued, “translate a current issue.relate it to individual freedom and the freedom of the Nation.” So take an added interest in your County paper during October. If your Editor writes an editorial that you like, call or write and congratulate him. And remember, Farm Bureau conducts its affairs on a strictly bi-partisan basis. Those in Farm Bureau feel that a Nation’s interest in a strong and vigorous agriculture is altogether too vital to be gambled on the fickle fortunes of any particular political party. In other words, most people like to eat regardless of whether the White House is occupied by a Democrat or a Republican.
