Race Committee POINT TO POINT RACES TO RUN NEXT SATURDAY NOON Rappahannock Hunt’s March 2 Point-to-Point gets heavy entry of top steeple chasers. “The big names of the Virginia Circuit," said Wade H. Massie, Race Chairman, “will run next Saturday over our exacting timber course o n Thornton Hill Farm. It’s two miles south of Sperryville on Route 522." The major excitement of Rappahannock’s program promises to be the Ben Venue, a race for gentleman in which points accrued will count toward determination of the best owner-rider combination of the Virginia Point-to-Point circuit. Now entered are the big guns from the Potomac Hunt: David Semmes on August Acorn, Harry Semmes on Sun Castle, Randolph Rouse'onthe' outstanding Twin Peaks, Jo Muldoon on War Lord II, Charles O.

Massie III scouts thd course after arranging brush for the jumps. The contour of the rugged course is outlined against the trees and jumps are at far right and in center background. The hillsides offer good viewing for spectators. Farmers Urged To Gauge Production Mr. H. S. Barksdale, Chairman, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee, today urged farmers to weigh carefully the observations offered recently by Secretary of Agriculture Orville L. Freeman on production and marketing plans for 1968. In a year end statement. Secretary Freeman said that in 1967 the crop production index jumped 10 points above the 1960-65 average. He said that this, combined with record harvests around the world, had occasioned 1967’s low prices. The Secretary declared that prices in the next few months “depend on what farmers themselves do*. He said production decisions in poultry, hogs, and livestock in the next few months are crucial to 1968 profits. “Decision to market grain at low prices, or to hold for better prices, will determine grain prices in the first half of 1968.” “If farmers cut back livestock production modestly,* Secretary Freeman declared, “prices should rally in early 1968. But if farmers yield to the temptation of feeding cheap wet corn in great amounts, the income of broiler, turkey, hog and cattle producers will suffer.” The Rappahannock County (Continued on Page 2) Officers for the Student Government Association at Rappahannock County High School for the 1968-69 session were elected Friday. They are, front row, in usual order, Lois Yates, secretary; Carter Moffett, president, receiving the gavel from retiring president Janet Hackley; back row, Steve Gore, reporter; Bill Kilby, treasurer, and Terry Russell, vice-president.

Tops At Two Tests By W. H. Lyne, C. E. Johnson, Jr. has the highest indexed Angus bull in the current Culpeper performance feed test program and the top Angus in the Dublin test! Records of these young bulls are as follows: The Culpeper bull, #63, calved January 20, 1967, as a calf had an adjusted average daily gain of 2.17 lbs., a type score of 14 and an index of 138. At the beginning of the feed I test (October 2nd) he weighed ^65 pounds and was again gradS ed 14. At the end of the feed i test(February 19th) he weighj ed 1040 lbs., typed 15 and ! had average gain of 2.68 lbs. ! a day. His calculated 365 day weight was 960 pounds. His lifetime weight per day of age | as of February 19th was 2.63 l pounds with an index of 162. ; The Dublin bull (#31) is a (Continued on Page 3) AWXXVWWXW^WXWXW^ \ Fire and Rescue £ \ Squad Notes \ 7A Flint Hill fire company, In addition to calls noted last week, attended field fires at the Skyline Ski Area, and on the properties of John R. Moore and Mrs. Jesse Ward. On Friday they went to a field fire at the home of Mrs. Floyd !Seal and on Monday to Crest I Hill Farm on the Hume Road. | The Rescue Squad ambulance took Jeanie Smoot from the Sewing Factory to the Warren Memorial Hospital on Tuesday. \ Sperryville Fire Company answered a call Friday to the home of Mrs. Floyd Seal In Flint Hill. Rappahannock Rescue Squad took Shirley Grimsley from Mrs. Pullen’s home to the Warren Memorial Hospital, Thursday night. The Amissville Fire Company responded to a chimney fire last Thursday atthev'onru' 4 p.m. Burning ,l,aw Effective March 1 Raymond Johnson, Chief; Forest Warden for Rappahan- i nock County announced that the! 4 o’clock burning law will be- j come effective Friday, March' 1, and is in effect until May! 15. This law states that open air fires are unlawful within 300 feet of the woods, or inflammable material leading to woodland, except between 4 o’clock in the afternoon and 12 o’clock midnight. This law is a good forest fire prevention measure because it prohibits burning in dangerous areas during the time of day when a fire burns most rapidly. Since the spring months are generally hazardous, the law is seasonal, applying only during the months forest fire danger is most critical. Forestry personnel ask the cooperation of the public when burning in the open air. By burning during the legal hours the danger of a fire escaping is not as great as earlier in the day. Even when burning after 4 o’clock, thefire should be attended and completely extinguished before leaving. Burn on an afternoon when the wind is calm and the air is moist. This reduces the chance of blowing embers starting a fire in nearby dry grass or woodland. The law will be enforced through the aid of forest fire lookout towers, airplane patrol, and all personnel of the Virginia Division of Forestry. Fish & Game Commission To Hold Hearing on 15th The Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries will hold its annual game law hearing in Richmond March 15, Fxecutive Director Chester F. Phelps announced. The meeting will begin at 9:30 a.m. in the Conference Room at the Commlssion’s 7 North 2nd Street office. Time will be alloted on the agenda for persons and groups to express their wishes to the Commission regarding hunting seasons, bag limits and hunting regulations. “This is the most opportune time for the Commission to make hunting law changes since such changes can be incorporated in the Summary Of Virginia Game Laws which is printed and distributed each year about June 15,” Phelps said. The Commission will also consider fish law changes at this time, the normal fall fish law hearing having been deferred to this date. The Commission w i 11 take final action on the proposed 3 week spring gobbler season for 81 counties at this meeting also. Services at Forest Grove Beginning with the month of March, the worship services at Forest C.rove Baptist Church will he held the second and fourth Sundays of each month at II a.m. This is a change from the former schedule. The change is being made since the Forest drove Church is associated with a new field. Cub Scout Pack 123 of Kappnhannock County held its annual Blue and Gold Banquet at the Trinity Church pariah house Friday evening. The Cuba and their families enjoyed the dinner, group singing and games. Tackling the frog race are Webelo leader Irvin Kenyon and Cubmaster Michael Vest with the Cub group in the cheering section. Mr. Vest has recently become Cubmaster and Mr. Kenyon is directing the Webelo group for boys 10 to 11 years of age. More Women Work In Rappahannock Co. An increasing number of women in Rappahannock County hive been entering the labor force in recent years. The latest figures indicate that np less than 27.1 percent of the local female population over the age of 14 are now employed outside the home or are looking for sucT employment. Lfy way of comparison, as recently as I960 the percentage was 24.2. The census taken at that time showed a total of 449 local women in the labor force. Much of the increase is attributed to married women, particularly those over 40, returning to the labor force. Now that their children are growing up, they find that they are able to discharge their household duties and still have enough time left over to take outside jobs, either part-time or full time. The changes that have been taking place in thefemaleemployment picture are brought out in national studies made by the Department of Labor, the National Industrial Conference Hoard and others. In Rappahannock County, on the basis of their overall find ings, the proportion of working women is greater than it has ever been. I'he 27.1 percent that are estimated to be in the labor force in the local ar ea is some what lower, however, than the 17.4 percent average in the United States as a whole. The surveys show that age is no longer a barrier to employment for women. More than half of those between 45 and 54 are now in the labor force and, of those between More Arrests Made In Log Thefts In addition to two arrests! made recently for log rustling, three more men were arrested and charged last Tuesday for the same offense. They are Tyson Jolliffe and Gene Autry Settle of Rixeyville and Ronnie Burke, Castleton. Prior arrests Included Joseph Mayhugh of Catlett and William B. Wharton Jr. of Remington. " — ..- *! The cases had been sche-: duled for hearing February' 27 but have been continued until April 16 at 2 p.m. in |Rappahannock County Court. Game Night Benefits Amissville VFD A Game Night will be held Saturday, March 2 at the1 Amissville fire hall begin-j ning at 8 p.m. It is sponsored: by and benefits the Amissville Fire Company. The publie is invited. 55 and 64, about two fifths. I With about 35 percent of all | wives bringing home pay- : checks these days, the In-1 stitute of Life Insurance poses |the question: “What would hap pen -- strictly from an economic viewpoint -- if all the wives now working were to quit and devote their full time! to homem iking?" One effect, it believes, would, he that the country would ex-, perience an acute labor crisis overnight and that a good deal of our national prosperity would vanish. Another would he that many households would feel a financial pinch and would have to readjust their mode of living to compensate for the loss of income, which is a substantial item In many farrnfies. Amissville Ruritans Enter The Ring A Horse Show, with all the necessary events and entertainment to attract both rider7 and spectator, is being planned as an important spring classic by the Amissville Rurt tans. Following a fine dinner served by the club member’s wives last Wednesday, Chairtnan W. Allen Cooper was call ed upon by President R. B. Settle to give the report of the Horse Show Committee. The information wasenthusias tically received and a date set for Saturday, April 20th with a "rain date" of April 27. While the ring location has not been fully determined, all those interested in forming classes or feature riding should contact Mr. Cooper, telephone 825-1114. Another project, the annual Ham and Turkey Dinner, was scheduled for April 6th. at Amissville fire hall. The Chairman of the Finance Committee, Charlie Priest announced that they are preparing for a larger number of guests this year and that adequate ham and turkey will be served all comers. The president extended the Club’s welcome to four visitors: Ches Sanders and Armsted Wine of the Marshall Rurltan Club, Ted Settle of Viewtown and Michael Sheele of Amissville. Shooting Matches To Be Held in Washington Shooting nntches will be held regularly on Friday nights at 7 o’clock at the Carnival grounds. Washington, Va. for the benefit of the Washington Fire Company and Rappahannock Rescue Squad. The February meeting of the Rappahannock Fire Association held Friday night at the new fire hall in Kperryville was very well attended. Discussion included the possibility of a central alarm system for the county, pre-planning by fire companies for water sources, inventory of equipment and a fire plan for schools. AI no of concern wan the over-lapping of calls to fire department and backing up of one unit by another. Adt> quale radio contact by all units would eliminate useless runs and also assure sufficient aid. An ^executive meeting of the Chiefs Committee has since been held to delve into these issues.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON «75-S34» MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor ' Entered as 2nd Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. Subscription Rate (In Advance): $2.50 per year in Rappa hannock and adjacent counties; $3.00 elsewhere. Panther Tales By iiarbara Liliard The SCA Executive Council remained after school Wednet day the Nth to choose SCA candidates for the Executive Council of 1968-69. After vigorous campaigning, elections were conducted Feb. 23. All students who had registered on Thursday were eligible to vote Friday. A very capable council was chosen with Carter Moffett, president; Terry Russell, vice-president; Lois Yates, secretary; Bill Kilby, treasurer; and Steve Gore, reporter. Congratulations to these people! Iam sure they will do a fine job governing the student body next year. A page in the “Culpeper Star Exponent" has been offered to RCHS each month for publicizing school news. Eddie Clark was elected editor and anyone who would like to help on the page notify him as soon as possible. Work hasalready begun for the first page and more prestige is given our school. The juniors held a class meeting Tuesday, Feb. 13. The business included the appropri ation of their funds. The seniors held a meeting Feb. 16, to discuss the senior trip. Several places were suggested and these suggestions will go before the School Board on March 12 for their consideration. Seniors have ordered invitations and calling cards md have been measured for caps and gowns. The only thing left is to keep those grades up. The final SCA dance will definitely be a Sadie Hawkins dance, so girls be thinking!!! The date has been set for March 29. Make your plane now! Nine students attended the American Field Serviceforum in Richmond Saturday the 24th. They gathered with approximately 45 students in the state and held an interesting discussion. A very worth w h 11 e trip indeed. Basketball season haddrawr to a close, and a great season it was for the Panthers too! During the entire season they won 7 grand victories and experienced 10 honorable defeats in the District 10 competition. Needless to say.j RCHS is mighty proud of this team, as well they should be. The boys’ fine effort and high morals was prevalent throughout the season, which proved them a truly great team. The same praise is due the Junior Varsity team. Although they didn’t quite make it on the scoreboard, they won praise for themselves for their great spirit and eagerness. Both teams were truly .fine representatives of our school and they deserve an awful lot of credit. Congratulations Panthers, you’re great:1 Flash!!! Poor Mrs. Wolf threatens to cut her throat when students are unable to do their English. Don’t give up Mrs. Wolf, there must be another answer!!! Mysterious Person?? A sophomore girl who lives for the weekends so she can spin around Front Royal. I think the attraction is the Mosby J. V. coach. She’s oneof those people who shouldn’t play with matches!!! The non-contest lover was Sandra Foster. Bullin’ and A-Bragin’ W. H. Lyne, Ext. Agent, Agriculture Was talking to a successful cattleman the other day about bull buying. He said he’d rather buy a yearling than a two year old. If he bought the latter, he figured he was ready to go; [usually over worked him and : seemed to wind up with the bull needing a couple years to korne back and look about as I good as he did as a two year old. Said he’d come to buying nothing but a yearling bull. Let him down slowly off feed, bread him to but 6-8 females, and by the time he was two had something ready to really GO. “Go” to the butcher, if his first few calves weren’t the kind he was looking for or “Go" to work in a big capable way, if his calves panned out. To me, sounds like a good plan. To me this is another reason to check over the bulls on Feed Test to be sold March 8th at Gulpeper Enterprises. Most will be yearlings. All will have proven themselves capable on dam and in feed lot. Capable of growing and looking right. Character listics highly transmissable to Jthcir offspring.

Owner •TB * ly about the Rappahannock Bulls on these test trials. Incidentally, one of Ned Johnson’s bulls is leading in the feed test at Dublin. Randall Updike and I were looking at some of Johnson’s at-home bulls the other day. Young bulls, that is. We called ’em 13,14 and 15 on type. What do you think? Then Ray Cannon and son, James, were by early this week talking beef. Ray has made excellent progress with his herd in the BCIA Program. Has a nice young bull too, but more later about him. In 1962 the Average Daily Gain of the Cannon calves was but 1.56 lbs. and the average type score 10.4. Ray took what he had and by using BCIA Data for culling and selection has climbed the herd performance ladder like a pro! Average Daily gain was 1.59 in 1963, 1.66 in 1964. 1.9 lbs. the next year. In 1966 1.98 lbs. and last year 2.04 lbs. Also, type improved constantly over all, but did slip back a little one year. Here! the herd has come to an averj age score of 13.2 from an average of 10.4 back in the beginning. Ray; “Has this paid?” I ask-i ed. “Certainly” was hiSj prompt reply. “My average 205 day weight has beenuppedj from 382 pounds to 484 pounds; Why, if we look at weight alone and assume a 25C lb. price, that is over $25.00 per head for the whole herd.”! The bull calf he is feeding! at home was too young for Cul; peper tests. According to Ray, this calf weighed even 1000 lbs. today (February 19th) and will not be a year old till March 12th. As a calf he did 2.4 lbs. / day. Ray said he could hard-1 ly believe his figures' but he’d double checked and the calf had done 3.66 lbs per day for the last 33 cays. Proud? Yes, we are. And look at our Charolais at Culpeper too. But then O’Bannon and Stokes hit it big in “Business Farming”, Virginia’s edition. Va. Lions Begin Eye-Donor Drive Thu Lions Clubs of Virginia, which provide full financial support for the Old Dominion Lye Dank, have initiated a drive to increase by a substantial margin the number of eye-do ca^ds on file in the Richmond office. Over 5,000 members of the approximately 150 I .ions Clubs in the coverage area of the eye bank in eastern Virginia have been asked to establish a goal of one donor card per month from each member. Achievement of this goal, according to R. Kenneth Hudgins, executive Director of the Lye Dank, would make it pos s i b l e to provide enough human eye tissue for transplant purposes to restore sight to all blind individuals in Virginia whose loss of vision is of a type which may be helped by such transplantation. Restoration of vision is now possible in many cases where blindness is caused by diseased or damaged corneas or detached retinas. As part of the campaign to interest the public in pledging their eyes on death to this cause. Lions members have formed an Lye Dank Speakers Duteau and arc now soliciting clubs and organizations throughout the eastern part of the st a t e , requesting the privilege of presenting programs explaining the work of the Lye Dank. lor pledge eye bank’s HEADQUARTERS for Orchard Chemicals Wc maintain complete inventories and will deliver to your farm.

Everyone Can Shop at the Co-Op TB Campaign Under Goal “We are holding our breath" says Owen Phillips, Chairman of the Christmas Seal Campaign, “the Tuberculosis and Health Association of Northern Virginia is behind in contributions if the 1968 budget is to be met for an effective program in the area. If contributions continue to come in at the same rate we can still achieve our goal." The returns thus far are $40,725.23, leaving $1774.77 to meet the goal set. Today approximately 110,000 Americans are known to have active tuberculosis. Almost 50,000 new active cases County Clarke Fauquier Frederick1 Loudoun Page Rappahannock Shenandoah Warren Goal $2,800.00 8,000.00 9.500.00 7.600.00 3.500.00 1,000.00 5,000.00 5.100.00 are reported each year. An estimated 10,000 inactive cases relapse into active tuberculosis. Acute respiratory diseases are a major cause of time lostfrom work and school. Christmas seal contributions help the Tuberculosis and Health Association of Northern Virginia in fighting TB and many other respiratory diseases. “We hope that those who haven’t responded to their Christmas Seal letter will do so soon," concluded Mr.Phillip% Campaign Chairman, “so we can achieve our goal and therefore carry out an expanded program that has been planned in the area." „ Rec’d as of Short of Goal Feb. 23, 1967 Feb. 23. 1968 $2,435.10 $364.90 7,395.62 9.428.05 7,247.40 3.409.05 918.00 4,990.70 4,901.31 604.38 71.95 362.60 90.95 82.00 9.30 198.69 1968 Homemaker Jennifer L.

With cooperation from farmers in these voluntary programs, oversupplies of grain can be reduced this year and prices should rise. Resale provisions and other actions were taken last year to strengthen the power of farmers to hold grain and other commodities for a better price. As of November farm ers had placed 65 percent more grain under price-support loan than at the same date a year earlier. The ASC county committee j chairman also observed that j intensive government andpri- ■ vate export promotion helped to make 1967 the second successive $5 billion year for dollar agricultural exports. Despite this, 1967 was a disappointing year for farmers. However, he added, prudent planting and marketing deci ■ 'i -***js*i>» -.r «*^jM«^w\TAJwnc^^«nr^QMghr»,TIMBER-R-R — Construction of the dual lanes on Route 211 near Ben Venue has begun and dozers are clearing the right of way.

Capitol Report Some provocative new topics are making the scene at the Capitol this session of the Genera 1 Assembly, but the most important subject for discussion is the same as in previous years -- money. Legislators have not been been handicapped by a lack of ideas as to how to budget the State’s resour c e s. Succeeding waves of officials and citizens have appeared before committees to give convincing arguments for investing in scores of new buildings and programs that are not included in the Governor’s final budget recommendations. Within a few days, the House of Delegates will be receiving from its appropriations committee a bill amended to include whatever new items the committee finds the budget can accommodate andstriW ing those it deems expendable. It you are planning (or retirement, make sure you're around ! A complete health checkup each yoar will help you make it 1,400.000 people, living today, are cured ot cancer And a yearly checkup could save many thousands more. Make an appointment with your doctor today. American Cancer society How To Safeguard Young Hearts (Editor's not*: This is th* socond of a thr»*-part saries of acticlos pr*s*nt*d by your H*art Association to toll parants how th*y can safeguard thair childran’s hoarts, as wall as thair own.) Good dietary habits are extremely Important to children. In planning meals, mothers should go beyond the simple and obvious requirement of providing enough food to sustain growth and energy requirements. Equally Important is the need to encourage maintenance of normal weight, and to establish dietary habits which tend to lower cholesterol levels in the bloodstream. According to informed medical opinion, lower cholesterol levels retard the onset of atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries, a disorder which helps to set the stage for heart attack and stroke. Anything the homemaker can do to get children started in the proper dietary habits can be of great advantage in the a (kilt years when they become increasingly vulnerable to heart attack. But the degree of vulnerability can be changed by minimizing the risk factors. The sooner good dietary habits are begun, the better the youngster's chances of avoiding or delaying a heart attack in his or her adult years. What mothers should remember in planning meals are these three simple rules: 1. Replace saturated fats in your diet with polyunsaturated fats as much as possible. Polyunsaturated fats are largely liquid vegetable oils such as com, cottonseed, soybean and safflower oils. Pish and poultry also contain polyunsaturates. This type of fat tends to lower blood cholesterol. The goal in regulating fat in the diet 1b to raise the proportion of polyunsaturates to saturated fats. For example, one can eat more fish and poultry In place of meat. Use of skimmed milk in place of whole milk and cream is advisable as a valuable source of nutrients. In cooking, use vegetable oils Instead of butter and lard. 2. Bat less food that Is high In cholesterol. Cholesterol Is a substance which our bodies manufacture and which Is also present In the foods we eat. It Is found In large quantities In egg yolks. Shellfish and organ meats (such as liver and kidney) contain high amounts of cholesterol. When we take In more cholesterol than our bodies need, the excess may be deposited In the arteries and may add to the txilld-up of atherosclerosis. 3. Count calories, remembering that obesity often begins early. Regulate the quality and quantity of the food eaten "by your children so that they will be neither overweight nor underweight, but rather at normal weight. Diet changes should never be drastic. A balanced diet Is necessary for good health, and harm can result In cutting out essential foods. Your doctor can help you with diet planning. While establishing good diet practices for your children, you will also be observing them for yourself and your husband. Thus, you will be reducing your own and your husband’s risk of heart attack. Next Installment: Minimizing other risk factors. These latter will be exceed-j ingly few in number, from all appearances. After House action, the bill will go to the Senate for final consideration before coming to the Governor’s desk for his signature. Regardless of the juggling, the budget as finally presented will be the largest on record projecting the expenditure of more than three billion dollars in State monies. More than seventy million in capital outlays will be predicated on the success of referendums in November for the approval of bond issues for construction at the State supported two and rour-yenr colleges and mental institutions. Progress was also being made on weighing the merits of the nearly two thousand bills that have been introduced in the two houses. Legislation raising the contract interest ceiling from six to eight per cent passed with some indications that emergency status would be requested to hasten the date of effectiveness. The Metropolitan Areas, or Hahn Commission, package passed the House, stripped of provisions for the State’s assuming welfare costs after 1970 and urban highway costs after 1975. These had been considered strong inducements for cities to participate in the regional service districts envisioned by the Commission as a step towards solution of urban problems. S e v e r a 1 measures dealing with election procedures were introduced. One would advance the primary date from July to June, and require candidates to file by the day before the primary date. Another called for a study of the State’s election laws by the privileges and elections committees. A bill to abolish run-off elections was defeated. Citizens of a locality would have a voice in method of selection of school board members if a House-passed bill is accepted by the Senate. By petition of at least 20% of registered voters, an election could be held to determine whether school board appointments should be made by the Boards of Supervisors or by the school trustees electoral board system, as at present. Line-item cuts in school budgets could nor be made by supervisors if another bill successfully gets through the’ two Houses. Compulsory attendance appeared likely to be reinstated as a State policy. A move to do away with tuition grants was unsuccessful. Following the introduction of a number of bills concerned with conflict of interest, a reso lution calling for a study of this matter seemed assured of passage. A package of bills aimed at making Virginia’s highways safer was making its way slowly through the legislative channels. To date, three of the measures have passed the House. They provide for a driver license compact through which information about violators may be exchanged with other states, require a test for would-be motorcycle operators, and make it illegal to drive with tires that have less than a specified tred. Proposed legislation to allow beer advertisements on billboards was defeated. Increases in billboard fees were proposed.

Mower is mounted on the front tilting axle . . . not on the tractor frame like other tractors. When front tires roll over bumpy terrain, front wheels act as a mower guide, allowing it to rise, and fall and tilt from side to side. Anti-scalp rollers located under mower complete the job. In this way. Simplicity gives you true scalp-free mowing. We invite your comparison! Come in and check our Tractor Value Yardstick. Take the exact measure of your yard and garden needs from the Simplicity line of six no-scalp deluxe tractors.

State Department of Health publication, which states that “an explosion of research" has occurred in the past decade as investigators have; sought to define the basic metabolic error that leads to] cystic fibrosis. A victim is born with the disease, the Bulletin reports, even though it may not become apparent until later in life.! Cystic fibrosis cannot be “out- | grown”, but the harmful effects can be mitigated and life expectancy can be increased.

Vitamin supilements are advised for most tystic fibrosis sufferers.
