V T VOLUME XIX. NUMBER 22 WASHINGTON. VIRGINIA THURSDAY, MARCH 28, 1968 l()c Copy Changes Noted in School Calendar Adjustments in the school calendar for the Rappahannock CountySchools have been announced. These changes are the result of days lost due to weather conditions during the winter months. Schools will be closed on Good Friday, April 12, but will operate on Monday and Tuesday, April 15 and 16. Schools will be in session on May 3. This date had originally been scheduled as a non-teaching day. The School Session will be extended three (3) days in June and school will be in session on June 3,4, and 5. June 5 will be the last school day of the session for children. Graduation exercises for Rappahannock County High School will be held on Friday, June 4-H Supper Features Fried Chicken A fried chicken supper is scheduled for Saturday, March 30 at Rappahannock County High School cafeteria from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. This event is sponsored annually by the 4-H County Council and proceeds finance 4-H activities in the county. The menu will include fried chicken, two vegetables, a salad, rolls and pie. The price is $1.25 for adults and 75 cents for children under 12. The support of parents, friends and members is needed. . Small Cycles Subject Motor Vehicle Rules Noting the growing popularity of miniature motorcyIcles, Colonel H. W. Burgess, Superintendent of State Police and Chairman of the Governor’s Highway Safety Committee, today warned that they are officially motor vehicles when operated on other than private property. This means, he said, that the driver must be of age and licensed; the motorcycles must themselves be registered, licensed and insured, or the owner must have paid the uninsured motorist’s fee, land the driver is subject to [the same traffic laws that japply to other motorists. j These vehicles, he continued must be officially inspected twice annually, unless capaIble of propulsion by the driver independently of an engine. Even when falling within this category, as in the cases of motors attached to bicycles, the vehicles must be equipped with such safety devices as proper brakes, lights, mirjrors and horns. These are also [classified as motor vehicles. Colonel Burgess stated they are being used under the misapprehension that they are in the nature of toys and do not I come under regulations laid down for motor vehicles. “Many," he said, "are apparently being used by youngsters below driving age or without proper training or appreciation of the responsibilities the operator of a motor vehicle must assume." R. C. H. S. Faculty Honored with Appreciation Day, Assembly Friday The students of RCHS were not just “apple polishing" when they presented each faculty member with an apple oh Teacher Appreciatiort Dfcy at the school Friday. It was obvious that this and other gestures of the special day which included corsages or boutonnieres, an assembly program and luncheon were all warm and sincere. The day began with an assembly at which time teachers were given a standing ovation when they entered the auditorium. This was followed by a devotional given by Beth O’Bannon and the Pledge of Allegiance led by Stewart Hawkins. Janet Hackley, SCA president, made a short address of welcome to all. Teachers received their flowers from student representatives, as well as apples, notes and certificates of appreciation. The Rev. Charles F. Glaenzer spoke on "Appreciation" using the comic strip “Pea-' nuts* as a basis for his talk. Janet Hackley also read responses from letters which she had written to Governor Mills E. Godwin and to U. S. Commissioner of Education Harold Howe II. Howe on be half of John Gardner, Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare, also sent a certificate which was framed and will be put in the teachers lounge. The guest speaker for the program was Roy V. Sonner, Director of Field Services and Placement at Madison College, Harrisonburg, whose subject too, was appreciation of teachers. He emphasized that it was not always the teacher who was best liked that is appreciated most. Mr. Sonner is a former teacher and school principal and was assistant to the president of Madison College before tak ing his present position. He was educated at Lynchburg College and the University of Virginia. A luncheon was served in the Home Ec Department by the S.C.A. in honor of the teachers and coffee, cookies and doughnuts were served in the lounge most of the day. Large decorative signs proclaiming teacher appreciation day were hung in the halls, the gym and lounge of the school brilliantly delivering the message of the student appreciation. BONNIE NORTH "Miss Rappahannock 1967” Miss North Presides At Beauty Pageant Miss Bonnie North of Huntly who was chosen 'Miss Rappahannock" in the Jaycee sponsored Beauty Pageant fast year, will be present for the contest this year which is scheduled for Friday, April 19 at the local high school.

2 THE RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS, Washington, Va. Thursday, March 28, 1968 RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON «75-M4* MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as 2nd Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. Subscription Rate tin Advance) : $2.60 per year in Rappa hannock and adjacent counties; $3.00 elsewhere. Letters To The Editor Dear Editor: What I am writing is not an objection to a person or persons. It is an objection to the proposed establishment of a rock quarry and asphalt plant on the outskirts of the Town of Washington, Virgina. This would be an objection regardless of the person or persons proposing to open up such an operation. First, the health of the community should be considered: The dust and smoke from the crusher and the asphalt plants would not only be annoying but: injurious to the health of the persons living in the community. Everyone today is conscious of air pollution and what it means to health. I am told that the smoke from the asphalt burning would be even worse than the dust. We do not want to add to the pollution we already have from other sources. The noise from the entire project would certainly not be helpful to the nerves of the people. The method of blasting, some have said, would be different from that used in previous years. Blasting is blasting. It is therefore difficult for me to believe the effects would not be detrimental to our homes, our health ind the predominant agricultural character of the neighborhood. The quarry's proximity to the Town 6f Washington would certainly be injurious to property or improvements in the neighborhood. It is my understanding that the highway to New Market will not be completed until 1975, if then. Completion of the highway construction would not necessarily mean the closing of the quarry, since Mr. Cumby made the statement to the Board of Zoning Appeals that there is enough rock on the porposed site to last a hundred years. Think that through When the rock crusher was operating on this site in previous years the blasting jarred my home two miles away. I lived through those years and I hate to think of having to live through worse years now, for I'm within very close range of the proposed quarry. We have to put up with the annoy ances occasioned by construction of the highway, and we do so willingly, as this is for our safety and convenience, but why should we have to put up with another quarry when there is one at Flint Kill with equally suitable stone? One quarry inourCoun ty is enough. Rappahannock County is beautiful and attracts people who wish to live in a beautiful, peaceful community. In my opinion our Board of Zoning Appeals was right in refusing to grant permission to open up this quarry. This is an historic area, and one of the purposes of our zoning laws is to protect against destruction or encroachment upon historic areas. Miss Annie Miller Almond Dear Editor: I don’t know much about town chickens but here is one old country rooster that is allergic to noi6e and dust. A. H. Keyser SIMMS See ut first for the loan you need— • INCOME TAX • SICKNESS • AUTO LICENSE • INSURANCE $25 to $600 Fast, confidential friendly service PIEDMONT SMALL LOAN 162 E. DAVIS ST. CULPEPER, VIRGINIA Dear Editor: The Rappahannock News last week published an article that just clipped Chicken Little’s wings. However, there wa s one advantage to her wings being clipped —she wouldn’t have as many feathers to catch the dust and asphalt smoke from the proposed quarry. There was a disadvantage too, she couldn’t fly high any more to get out of that dust and smoke. Chicken Little was living quietly and peacefully when suddenly one day something hit her - a piece of it fell. It alarmed her very much. She was thinking of the safety of her neighbors and all the folks around. Being a little chicken she couldn’t get around fast enough to warn them of the danger; so she used another means of communication. Now Chicken Little never knew Alexander Graham Bell personally, when he was alive, but she felt very grateful for his wonderful invention atthisparticular time. When all thefowls were notified, (both male and female) whom should they encounter but Foxy Loxy. It was just like a bqmbshell - there he' was licking his chops and watching his chances for all the goodies he’d get. Chicken Little is someone who like to explore for herself. One day she was out walking and come to a sign which read "Corporate Limits of Washington, Virginia." Right then and there she took out her little measuring rod to find out how far it was to the proposed quarry. It turned out to be less than a mile - really convenient for the town folks. Living in the barnyard was big D. Dominic rooster. I le had a way of scratching a round and bringing to light problems that the barnyard didn’t know exist ed. What do you reckon he wanted to do - build a big dust bin right in the middle of that barnyard. Not having been blinded, as D. Dominic was, by a vision of pennies from heaven, Chicken Little could readily sec that his health was at stake. So the barnyard voted it down. Now Chicken Little is not a skilled worker but she intends to take a course that will qualify her for a permanent job when the quarry opens as it will employ such a large number of workers. To breathe dust and smoke is a ra re thing in this a rea but those who arc interested may apply to D. Dominic Rooster, Box 1706, Washington, Virginia. M.C.W. On Dean’s List At R. M. A. Cadet James Cannon, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Cannon of Castleton, has made the 2nd honor roll for the grading period just ending. His average was 2.75, according to an announcement by the Dean’s office of Randolph Macon Academy. This average Is calculated by the following scale: Letters To The Editor Editor, Rappahannock News Washington, Virginia Dear Mrs. Latham: You have brought kudos to your paper with the timely Chicken Little editorial last week. It is a long time since nursery stories have been used for political satire; as they originally were both here and abroad. It requires real insight to prove a serious point in such an apt manner. To me, the fine point of the matter is that it takes a grandmother to nail a grandmother. A trip to the Ben Venue area will establish that dust and noise are byproducts of modern roadbuilding. Blasting is another and quarry or no quarry until Route 211 is completed, the tranquility of the county will be disturbed. It would seem to me that a modern quarry with dust controls would be making a lemonade out of a lemon. In addition to utilizing a natural resource on the spot, thequa^i ry would bring job opportuni-! ties, a payroll and provide aj broader tax base. I had to seek employment out of the county for the thirty years before my retirement and I speak with authority when I say that the saving in commuting time would be a great boon to the community. I look around and see younger people leaving everyday and wonder who is going to provide services when there are only retired people left. The quarry was in operation in the 1930s to build the existing road and at that time it was called progress. More Power to a lady with courage to stand up to the Chicken Littles. Grandfather Cox Scouts Declare War On Litter A project for the picking up of litter along the North Fork of the Thornton River and Piney Branch and the nearby roadway is planned for thn Saturday March 30, 1968. This project is being sponsored by the Rapp. Co. Jaycees. The cooperation of the Boy Scouts is vital to the success of this program. It is a chance for the scouts to have a group outing while doing a grand civic service. These streams are located >n rts. 600 and 612 near Sperryville. They have been chosen because they will be stocked with trout this week and will have a number of people using them this Spring and Summer. Both local people and a number of visitors to our County. The Jaycees will provide the food for a picnic the evening of the 30th, for all those who help. Bring your own food for the mid-day meal. The Jaycees will provide the sacks for picking up and a truck will be on hand to haul it away. Transportation will be provided as needed. Troops needing transportation should contact he Project Chairmnnand plan to be at their regular troop meeting places at 9:30 a.m. Work will start at 10:00a.m. We will have a lunch break and then work until finished or until about 4:00 p.m. The picnic will start at 4:30. You should be back around 6:30 p.m. A number of Jaycces will be working with you. It is suggested that you wear boots anc gloves. Kach Troop will work on se parate parts of the steamsand will be responsible for their assigned section. All troops helping will be recognised by by Hallmark and Gibson FANNIE FARMER CANDY EASTER PAPER PARTY SUPPLIES Matching Napkins, Cups and Plates Culpeper Book Store 210 N. Main St. Phone 825-9762 Culpeper, Va. Dear Editor: We have some people in Rappahannock County that are so much interested in where we should have a quarry, move a service station, farmer's coop, etc., but never give the Sperryville Cemetery a thought. The weeds grow tall each year in the old part of the Cemetery, whichdoes not have perpetual care, as an eight (8) grave lot sold for only $10.00. I only wish some of our supposed to be good citizens would take time out, give a little thought to their parents, or grand-parents graves, and not always be trying to make it hard for the other fellow. It isn’t a pleasant job collecting and seeing that the Cemetery is kept up, especially since my services have been free since 1954 and without even a thank you. Perle Coffey, Sec. - Treas. Sperryville Cemetery Asso. Sperryville, Virginia 22740 the Jaycees with special recognition going to the troop doing the best job. Also signs will be put up giving t'ne scouts of Rapp. Co. credit and to encourage everyone to keep these streams clean. We will try to pick up all trash between the stream and road, and the trash immediately along each side of the road. Any large concentrations of trash can be thrown directly into the truck as it comes around. The Sperryville troop will work the Piney Branch from the upper end of Rt. 600 down to the second bridge (the end of the hard surface). The Flint Hill troop will start at the bridge at D. M. Dwyer’s and work down stream to Rt. 600 (This is on Rt. 612). The Amissville troop will start at the end of the hard surface on Rt. 600 and work down stream. The Wash ington troop will start at the first Trout Waters sign just above Bradley Atkins Atlantic Service Station and work up stream to meet the Amissville troop.

Panther Tales By Barbara Lillard The Rappahannock County High School faculty was honored with a “Teachers Appreciation Day" on Friday, March 22. The day is sponsored by the SC A and is set aside to give students the opportunity to express their gratitude for the teacher’s tireless efforts. Before school, teachers were served coffee and doughnuts in the teacher’s lounge. An assembly was held first period at which time teachers received an enthusiastic stand ing ovation as well as a flower, a polished apple, a scroll of appreciation, and appreciation notes written by students. Guest speakers were the Rev. Charles Glaenzer ot the Trinity Episcopal Church and Mr. Ray Sonner, Director of Field Service and Placement. Mr. Glaenzer gave a very inspirational talk centered around a “Peanuts” comic strip. Mr. Sonner expressed his views on good teaching. Janet Hackley, SCA pesident, read to the faculty two letters which she had received concerning appreciation for teachers. The Hrst one was from Mr. Mills E. Godwin, Governor of Virginia and the second was from Mr. Harold Howe, United Commissioner of Education. The faculty was served a special luncheon at 11:45.

Production in these three areas was 24% of the total state's output. DON’T LIME WITHOUT A SOIL TEST! Such can be dangerous. The chemical reaction of ground limestone never reaches its maximum in less than two years. Many of our soils hold lime and other improvements very well. Just recently, I had a soil test results come to hand: „ pH was 6.9, Calcum and Magnesium both Very High. Two tons of lime had been applied in 1967 without a soil test applied to land already •sweet" enough. By applying the two year rule this man can easily be in trouble. Too much of a good thing can often be harmful just the same as too little. USE PROPER] SIGNALS' H. C.

Library Lines The program of establishing a permanent support group, called “The Friends of the Library" which got underway last week will be extended to April 15. The reason - to give more time to get the word out and the letters back. To date the library has received requests for membership from twenty some, and contributions of over $500. To carry out the plans for this year’s expansion of library service more than twice that amount is needed. The Library Board hopes to hear from many more people who understand the worth of a free county library here. Unless a substantial number of people stand behind the Board it will be impossible to keep the doors open more days and have trained help to operate the library and its programs. Will you send in your letter to Rappahannock Library, Box 55, Washington, Virginia, 22747 as soon as you can? The Board wishes to thank all those who have so generously responded to date. Next program will be a well known author who will be here in late April to speak to the Friends of the Library.

Tree Planting Now In Progress in State William C. Vernam, area forester for the Virginia Division of Forestry, reports that tree planting is now in full swing throughout the state of Virginia. Trees have already been received by,some landowners in Fauquier and Rappahannock counties for reforestation projects and more will soon be on the way. In 1967 Virginia ranked 5th among all of the states in the number of seedlings shipped from state forest tree nurseries, 6th in the total number of seedlings planted, and 4th in the number of acres planted on privately owned land. 44,031,000 were raised and shipped from Division of Forestry nurseries last year with a total of 74,920 acres of land being planted of which 70,760 acres were owned by industry and private landowners. This is a record that the people of the state of Virginia can be extremely proud of. Forester Vernam, however, feels that this record can be improved and that it will probably be exceeded during 1968 if the present demand for trees continues. According to Mr. Vernam some species of trees are completely sold out but that most of the pine species used in reforestation projects are still available at a small cost of $5.50 to $9.50 per thousand trees delivered to the landowner. Eight hundred seedlings should plant an open acre of abandoned land. Landowners interested in reforestating cutover lan0, abandoned land or land burned over by fire should contact Mr. Ver nam by writing the Virginia Division of Forestry, Box 111, Warrenton, Virginia, 22186 for a free planting site examination and recommendations on tree planting. Requests for tree planting assistance are also being received by Chief Forest Warden Raymond M. Johnson, Woodville, in Rappahannock County and Chief Forest Warden Stanley N. Mettinger, Sr., Warrenton, in Fauquier County. Plant trees now to meet the nation’s future timber needs.

Security Notes Of special interest to military men and women and their dependents is a provision in the new social security law which promises greater protection for them and their families. Under the old law only a person’s military base pay was counted toward social security benefits. Starting with January 1968, an additional $100 will be counted for each month in which the person in military service is receiving active duty pay.

The Congress recognized that under the old law, the scoial security protection of a worker might be Impaired during a period when he is in military service, because of the relatively low earnings covered under social security.
