'I > c VOLUME XX. NUMBER 4 WASHINGTON. VIRGINIA THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1968 lQcCopy ^ warm mmrtm Ruritan District Governor Charles Marston of Charlottesville was the guest speaker at the annual Ladies Night banquet held last Wednesday by the Amissville Ruritan Club at the fire hall. Mr. Mareton was most complimentary Ruritans Combine Ladies’ Night With Calf Judging at Annual Dinner High stepping Amissville society, leaning tenderly on the arms of their Ruritan escorts, touched off the club’s brilliant dinner program last Wednesday evening. In what has become the outstanding premier of the local holiday social season, the members provided their ladies with a delightful combination of good entertainment and excellent food. Hie dinner menu, planned and served by the Baptist women, included a complete and delicious turkey dinner from cranberry sauce to pumpkin pie with whipped cream topping. Tastefully decorated with garlanded light fixtures and twisted streamers, the hall offered a warm atmosphere for the occasion, enhanced by a large sign at the speaker’s table, reading “Welcome Ladies”. ~ v> Traditionally, Ladies Night is a combination swan song for the outgoing officers, presentation of club awards and a time of levity and fun. Returning president B. Settle was Master of Ceremonies and kept the program moving at a lively clip. A door prize drawing resulted in Mrs. Jerry Curtis winning an electric frying pan. Prizes were giver the tallest lady attending, the youngest and the oldest. A fourth prize was available for the heaviest, but when the scales were produced she kicked the contraption under the table and thus the club retains its record for diplomacy by keeping the name of the lady anonymous, as well as that of the oldest -- a secret of poorly kept Ruritan files. Vice president Gilbert Lawrence exhibited two awards won recently by the club, a plaque for new membership and a special citation entitling the club to a second plaque in recognition of a scrapbook of the club’s activities for 1968. In attendance were the District Governor Charles Marston and Mrs. Marston of Charlottesville. Mr. Marston spoke of the community good of the Ruritan National Club and praised the Amissville unit for its exemplary record. L. J. Davis, 1967 club president and this year’s Zone Governor, received the club award as the Ruritan member of the year, 1968. " Hr gRtufrW lhe men then put on what was termed a calf judging contest. Seven club members were hidden behind a sheet held approximately 15 inches from the floor. Pants legs were rolled up and their wives were given the task of “judging the family calves”. Each lady’s prize was the opportunity to take home her own calves, but in several cases, when the sheet was lowered the ladies rejected the offer. The fact that paid musicians failed to meet their appointment merely called upon the club’s resourcefulness. Group singing was organized and with Mrs. concerning the work of the local club which had received a citation for* new membership and for keeping a scrap book of the club activities. Seasons Rummage Sales Clear $800 The rummage sales which are held in the spring and fall for the benefit of Washington Fire Company and Rappahannock Rescue Squad have cleared $850 this year. Mrs. W. B. Jenkins assisted by Mrs. Mary Burke and Mrs. Charles Burice operated the rummage sales each Thursday and Friday during the months of May and September. Mrs. Jenkins expressed hei appreciation to all who have made donations and all who have patronized the sales. The sale: were extremely successful and al merchandise was sold so Mrs Jenkins reminds everyone to save their castaway items for the next sale in the spring. Any useabk articles will be appreciated. Tony Layman at the piano and Terry Terhune conducting, the music was gunned in with a roaring rendition of “Old Suzanna.” Mrs. Julie Davis and Mrs. Dottie Settle tore both the audience and Old McDonald’s Farm apart in their duet. A quartet composed of Rev. Charles Kindred and Si O’Bannon, both Baptists, and Rev. Tony Layman and L. J. Davis in the Methodist section, left “Home On The Range” in complete ruins. Charlie Priest tenderly sang “Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes” to his wife and the celebration ended on a lusty and patriotic note, with the entire group joining in “The Star Spangled Banner.” Dec. 5 Deadline For Paying Taxes Thursday, December 5, 1968 k the deadline for paying persona property and real estate taxes ir Rappahannock County.

STATE BOARD ANHOUNCES CONSTRUCTION OF COMMUNITY COLLEGE FOR THIS AREA ine lirst ot seven new Community Colleges to be built during the 1968-70 biennium was announced today by the State Board for Community Colleges in Richmond. E. B. Sydnor, Jr., Chairman of the State Board, said that the college will be constructed on a 100-acre site just north of and immediately adjacent to the town of Middletown, in Frederick County. It will serve the counties of Clark, Fauquier, Frederick, Page, Rappahannock, Shenandoah and Warren and the city of Winchester (Region 15). Construction on the project, which will cost in excess of one million dollars, will begin in 1969. Expenditure of State funds for this project was made possible ’ by the approval of the bond issue. Plans are now being prepared by the Alexandria, Va. architecture firm of Lyles, Bissett, Carlisle, and Wolff, which was designated for the job by the State Board after the review of credentials of a number of firms. Sydnor said it is hoped that the new comprehensive community college will be open for students in 1970. Holiday Traffic Dangers Cited Richmond, Va....Noting thaf last Thanksgiving weekend ir Virginia saw a record 27 traffic deaths, John T. Hanna, Directoi of the Highway Safety Division, reminded motorists and pedestrians that the present period is a very dangerous one. “Just about all the dangers ol the Christmas holiday season, the ■ worst of the year, are with us,’ he said. They are the shortest i days of the year, heavy traffic i increased drinking, holiday . inattention and the every present i threat of bad weather.” i He pointed out that last yeai • November, with 116 deaths, wai ■ second only to the 120 ol I August. December saw 113. Mr. Hanna felt that there remains a good chance of ending the year with less deaths than the 1,223 experienced last year and breaking the chain of seven consecutive years in which deaths have increased. “At one point in June this year,” he said, “we were 37 deaths ahead of the 1967 score. For the last few weeks, we have been running slightly under.” For statistical purposes, the weekend is considered to run from 6 p.m. Wednesday, November 27, until midnight Sunday, December 1. According to surveys of the area made by independent consultants the college is expected to enroll approximately 1,900 full and part time students! within its first two years of operation. It will offer the samej types of programs being given in the 11 community colleges now operating m the State’s Community College system: university-parailel and college-transfer, occupational-technical, adult and continuing education and foundation programs. State of Virginia and matching Federal funds will be used for construction and equipment. The region served by the college is responsible for purchasing the site and for site development, Dance at Sperryville A dance is scheduled for Friday, November 29 at Sperryville fire hall from 9 until 1.

Sperryville Troop 65 Takes Weekend Campout Hie Boy Scout Troog_ 65 camped out over the “jjttst weekend at Birds Nest Shelter No. 3. Hie campers were Charles Grigsby, C. B. Johnson, Jr., Frank Coffey, John Lloyd Jenkins, Bill Stokes, Bill Kilby, Chucky Jenkins and Tommy Woodard. Hie boys faced many dangers - flying candy at 3 a.m., scoaring snowballs from lingering mountain snow and the presence of hungry pack rats. The Buck Hollow Trail leading back home was much more like an obstacle course than a foot path due to the fallen trees and broken limbs from the recent snow. * This group would be remiss if it did not sincerely thank Mr. Jack Wayland and Mr. Elmer Atkins for a timely and restful ride back to Sperryville. T Over Twenty Residents Participate In Sunday Hike Up Hawksbill Mtn. Mild weather brought out more than twenty area residents Sunday who assemble at Sperryville for a hike up Hawksbill Mountain on Skyline Drive. Tlie group met at the school yard then reduced transportation to three vehicles and drove to the Hawksbill parking area. From there they began the ascent to the mountain top. Among and Mrs. Woodville. those hiking were Mr. Raymond Johnson of Mr. Johnson, Forest Warden, was leader of the group. Mrs. Barbara Gentry, methodical as usual, had her small satchel which contained a thermos of coffee and some sweet tidbits for quick energy. Mrs. Mary Cleverley carried one of those healthy snake whackelrs you see advertised occasionally by the Village 'Shop. 'Hiis, however, was needed only to assist her in the climb. Mr. and Mrs. Paul Nichols and sons Andy, Curtis and Douglas, all seasoned campers and hikers from their scouting activities, completed those from Flint Hill attending. Joe Kemper, Forest Warden from Prince William, furnished entertainment with his wild tales and witticism and Whit Hudson of Washington, who enjoys a walk up town every day, almost outwalked us all. Mrs. Kileen Day and three youngsters Lisa, Maureen and Johanna of Sperryville were well-booted and quite used to the Mrs. Day apparently of walking in her real obviously outdoors, does a lot estate work. In not quite such good condition was Helen Weisenfeld of Orlean who left her sweater in the car and was chilled by the mountain temperatures until she borrowed a sweater from June Jordan of Washington. On the mountain top at the Byrd shelter she found some clear plastic which made an excellent windbreaker. James B. Perkins of Sperryville was perky in his gay checked hat and smarter than the rest of us on the downward way. Mrs. Joseph Carter completed the list from Sperryville. Susan Latham made use of the hike as an excuse for an extra snack since there is rigid calorie counting being done at her house, in Amissville. She had cheese and crackers and an apple tucked away for added energy. I (Sarah Latham) completed the roster ol hikers. 'Hie upward climb was steep, but by pacing ourselves, it was not difficult and only in small spots was there any of the snow remaining from the early November storm. By the time we reached the mountain top, the j sun was practically obliterated by I thin clouds which marched across j the sky and dulled the scenery. I This was the first hike we had i taken to llawksbill sine*' the No. | 2 shelter had been built and an | observation platform made. It was suggested that we go | down the mountain by another ! trail which was a little longer but | not as steep, and so it was agreed j After descending a way the trail followed the north side of the mountain and the path for most of a mile was filled with snow several inches deep. By the time all were gathered at the parking area again, there were many wet and cold feet and weary bodies but the trek had been thoroughly enjoyed. including parking areas, roadways, lighting, landscaping and utilities to point of connection with the buildings. The localities will deed the site to the Commonwealth of Virginia State Board of Community Colleges. State Board Chairman Sydnor said that the Board will shortly ask the governing bodies of the political subdivisions in Region 15 to begin the process of selecting members of the local Board for the college. 3 Traffic Crashes Reported Sun.-Mon.

HOG MARKET OUTLOOK Bumper com crop in Midwest! Hog prices look out! Will it happen again as so many times in the past? Yes, in the past a bumper com crop has nearly always brought low hog prices. The most recent U.S.D.A. Hogs and Pigs Report (formerly Pig Crop Report) says that farrowing intentions in the 10 Midwest hog states (75% of national hog production) are up about 5% over last year. A 5% increase in hogs marketed last year would bring hog prices down considerably from the prices of the last 3 years. The warning signs are evident. The producer will probably have to tighten up on efficiencies to keep showing a reasonable profit margin. Lower com prices in 1969 will help some but relatively the price of hogs may drop more than com prices.

John Walker Jenkins Auctioneering Service Sperryville, Virginia - Phone 987*2401 Highway Dept Prepared for Winters Sand, Chemicals, Fence In Readiness Virginia’s snow fighters gird for battle early — and this year it’s good that they did. Storms in November over much of the State came sooner than expected, dumping up to 30 inches of snow in some western areas. “We believe our preparations made operations effective then, since the interstate routes and most primary roads were virtually dear within a matter of hours,” says John M. Wray, Jr., maintenance engineer for the Virginia Department of Highways. Back in the summer, the Department’s forces began the annual job of making things ready. Some 62,000 tons of chemicals (calcium and sodium chloride) and 210,000 tons of sand were ordered, and an initial supply was stockpiled in more than 350 locations throughout the State. More than 300 miles of snow fence was erected along many sections of highway. Experience has shown that when placed strategically, these fences can trap much of the snow before the winds that often accompany a winter storm can sweep it onto the highway itself. The State’s squad of more than 1,700 trucks which can be equipped for plowing, some 500 motor graders used for the same purpose, and 170 tractors and other specialized vehicles were checked for readiness. In addition, arrangements were made with private contractors to make about 1,500 pieces of similar equipment and sufficient operators available to support theState’s crews in the event of severe storms. Some of this equipment is contracted by special “fleet agreements,” other by agreement to use individual pieces of equipment. During autumn, the Department’s 6,000 employees who are normally involved in winter’s snow battles on a State-wide basis were briefed on their specific assignments, and memorized the routes they would cover. Altogether, some 5,000 miles of interstate, arterial and heavily-traveled primary highways are designated as “bare pavement” routes, drawing first attention for snow and ice control. The rest of the 50,000 miles of State-maintained highways are tackled as quickly as possible afterwards. Even with the advance preparation, it’s a big job. Last year, the Department spent $6.9 million for its snow removal and ice control program. This was some $800,000 less than the previous winter, and Wray, the maintenance engineer, attributes it to two factors — a milder winter and savings produced by a continuing emphasis on economy in operations. “We must stress efficiency in the use of chemicals, because chemical costs amount to one-third of all snow removal expenses," Wray explains. “On the interstate and primary systems, chemicals represent at least 40 per cent of our overall snow costs.” Another important phase of Virginia’s snow battles provides for a system of reporting road conditions around the State. Hits is achieved in several ways. During and immediately after a storm, for example, the Department’s eight district offices located in different geographic regions inform Wray’s headquarters in Richmond by telephone of road conditions in their areas. Using an electric map which measures 6 feet by 12 feet, Wray’s staff plots the condition of Virginia’s major highways section by section. TTien it’s possible to tell at a glance the sections continuing to pose problems and those where motorists need to use chains or snow tires for travel. This information assists the Department’s maintenance division in coordinating the State-wide snow battle. It also is passed on to the citizens who call inquring about road conditions.

Armel were dinner iuests Sunday at the Lord Hike in Social Security Tax Locally Residents of Rappahannock County will soon have to pay the piper for the increase in social security benefits that went into effect this year. Beginning on January 1, local wage earners and their employers will be hit with an increase in payroll taxes to finance the bigger pension checks that are now being issued. Working people who are covered by social security will begin paying at the rate of 4.8 percent on the first $7,800 of earnings. Matching contributions will be made by their employers. The new rate represents a rise over the 4.4 percent that has been in effect this year. For those who are self-employed, the rate will go from the present 6.4 percent on the first $7,800 to 6.9 percent. The new maximum tax for them will be $538.20. What it amounts to, for residents of Rappahannock County, is an overall increase of approximately $42,000 over the total paid for social security in the current year by local workers and employers. Hie figures are based upon data released by the Social Security Administration, the Internal Revenue Service and others. They show that the nation’s jobholders and their employers turned some $25.5 billion into the Social Security Trust Fund last year and that this year’s total will be well over $27 billion. Rappahannock County’s contribution to the 1968 amount will be approximately $377,000, it is estimated. And next year, under the new rates, it will be close to $419,000 Culpeper Hotel and visited Mrs. Lena Woodward who is a patient in the Culpeper Memorial Hospital. ^Special - Special - Special -S |/4 OFF on all WOOLENS^ Carletex and Pendleton SPECIAL ALL THIS WEEK Open Friday Night until 8:00 p.m. OMlAon'6 ® hoot op re nut FABRICS' M2 N.
