W. wWtfl R10H110I>D l9, v(l' 2321^ VOLUME XX. NUMBER 5 ■ ■■ —10c Copy Amissville HD’ers Install Officers Officers elected to head the Amissville Homemakers Club for 1969 were instilled Monday evening at the regular December club meeting which was combined with the annual Christmas dinner and party. There were 21 of the club’s 28 members present for the dinner meeting. Following dinner Mrs. Juanita Settle was installed as president and will be assisted by Mrs. Mary Priest as vice president. Mrs. Omega Hitt is the corresponding secretary and Mrs. Alice Lawrence is secretary. Mrs. Katherine Riley will act as treasurer. The new officers were installed by Mrs. F. L. Bowey who is County Chairman. Mrs. Dottie Settle, outgoing president, who had served two years in that capacity, expressed profound thanks to the group for its staunch support and avid participation during her tenure of office. She complimented them for being cited the outstanding club of the county and best achievement night exhibit for both of these years. Mrs. Katherine Riley and Mrs. Jean Burner were given awards for perfect attendance this year. This is the second consecutive year Mrs. Riley has received this award. Mrs. Frances Terhune led the Christmas devotions and Christmas carols were sung by the group. Other songs and rounds were sung, games played and gifts exchanged. Announcement was made of the change in meeting dates. Meetings will be held the first Thursday of each month instead of Monday. The January meeting will fall on January 2 and begins at 7:30 p.m. New yearbooks were available for all members. Plan Ahead If Phoning Vietnam Families who have relatives y^tationed in Vietnam are advised by The Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company of Virginia to plan ahead if they wish to talk to them during the approaching holiday season. In most instances, it is easier for a serviceman to call home than for his family to try reaching him in Vietnam, said Wayne Dementi, local manager of C&P. That is why servicemen are encouraged to notify their families in advance if they expect to telephone home, particularly around the holidays. The C&P manager stated that more than 38,000 calls were completed between the U.S. and Vietnam last year, four and a half times as many as in 1965. But (Continued on Page 2) Deer, Bear Kill Continues to Mount According to a check of all game stations Tuesday, 57 deer and 2 bear have been reported since last week’s tally. In Amissville George Kidwell, Jr. of Washington, Va. checked a 12 point buck and Thomas P. Kidwell of Castleton bagged an 8 point one. They are brothers and were hunting together near Washington and got their game within a short time and short distance of each other. Ronald Chadwell of Huntly and Skip Chadwell of Newark, Ohio each ehecked a doe at the Chester Gap station. These deer were taken in Warren County on the last day of the season there. At Flint Hill a 7 point buck was checked by Herman Good of Front Royal and James Smoot of Amissville checked an 11 point buck. At Washington three deer were checked as follows: Steve Gore, Culpeper, 3 point buck; Ray Pullen, Washington, 5 pointer; Wayne Smoot, also Washington, 9 point buck. The Sperryville checking station reports James Bailey of Rixeyville with an 8 point buck; Haywood Poles, Washington, 6 point; E. M. Ned Jones, Washington, 8 point; John A. Bowser, Arlington, 7 point. AWWWWWWWWW IFire and Rescue Squad Notes The Chester Gap Rescue Squad ambulance took Mrs. Jacob Williams from the Warren Memorial Hospital to the Winchester Memorial Hospital last Friday. On Wednesday two Rappahannock Rescue Squad ambulances reported to an accident on Route 211 near Amissville but were not used. On Friday a patient was taken frorn^ Aubrey Jenkins’ home to tfie Clllpe'per Memorial Hospital. On Saturday an accident victim was taken from near W. A. Miller’s gate to the Warren Memorial Hospital. Mrs. Amos Clatterbuck was taken Monday from her home to the University of Virginia Hospital. Sperryville Fire Company responded to a fire Tuesday afternoon on the property of Walter Freeman. Amissville Rescue Squad responded to a traffic crash Wednesday, November 27 and took five victims to Fauquier Hospital, Warrenton. On December 1, Mrs. Thelma Martin was taken from her home to Fauquier Hospital. Amissville Fire Company answered an alarm to a woods fire November 30 on the property of Alton Brent near Viewtown. Xmas Seal Total Reaches $469 Here Mrs. Ike L. Parrish, Christmas Seal Chairman for Rappahannock County reported a total of $469.25 in contributions has been received. The chairman said, “Everybody is familiar with the expression, ‘chronic disease.’ It is the kind that goes on and on for a long period of'’ time, causing great suffering and distress and sometimes the patient is never cured.” ‘ One of the diseases -- Emphysema - is not only terribly severe in many cases, but it is among the most damaging from a financial point of view. Emphysema is second on the list of diseases for which disability benefits are paid by the U. S. flnvorn mpnf at a nf $90,000,000 a year. In addition, there is the cost of medical treatment, the cost of training people to breathe right, to help themselves, and the tremendous economic loss “in the last several years, your Christmas Seal Association has been working more and more to control Emphysema and other respiratory diseases,” the chairman said. “It is a fight that has only begun with provision of equipment to clinics, teaching of nurses, and plans to provide special teachers in medical schools. It is a staggering problem, one that can only succeed with full public support. You can do much by your contribution to the Christmas seal campaign. Your dollars will go into increasing facilities for respiratory disease patients, education and research. Please answer your Christmas Seal Campaign letter today.” Services at Trinity The Rev. Holt H. Graham of the Virginia Theological Seminary will hold Morning Prayer services Sunday, December 8 at 11 a.m. at the Trinity Episcopal Church. Wool Marketing Year Ends Dec. 31 Growers were reminded today that the 1968 marketing year under the wool and mohair program ends December 31. H. S. Barksdale, Chairman, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee, explains that this means that payments for the current 1968 year will depend on completing all details of marketing either wool, mohair, or lambs by that date. Marketings completed after Dec. 31, 1968, will become marketings in the 1969 marketing year, and thus not eligible for payments until early 1970. The Chairman urges producers to make sure that all details for me laoo sales are compieiea oy the end of the year. This includes passing title to the buyer, delivering the wool or mohair to the buyer either physically or through documents (such as warehouse receipts or bills of lading) transferring control to the buyer, and having available all the information needed to determine the buyers’ total purchase price. Applications for 1968 marketing year payments under the National Wool Act may be filed with the county ASCS office at any time, and the Chairman advises that this be done as soon as possible. Incentive payments under the wool program are based on the average national price for marketings during the whole year, and this can be determined more exactly if reports on marketings are complete. ASCS therefore is urging that all 1968-year applications be filed before January 31, 1969. Payments for the 1968 marketing year will likely begin in April of next year. Church Notice The Rev. H. B. Fisher of Hopewell will conduct services Sunday, December 8 at 11 a.m. at the Washington Baptist Church.

Two young people were killed in the crash of this Pontiac GTO which occurred Thanksgiving eve on Route 211 west of Amissville. A third girl is in (^hical condition at Fairfax Hospital and two others sustafhed lesser injuries. The vehicle struck the side of the tree where the hark is missing and spun clear around it. Two Fatalities, Rash of Wrecks On Holiday Weekend, Foggy Roads Two young people from Fauquier County died in a traffic crash near AmissviUe last Wednesday just prior to the official beginning of the long Thanksgiving holiday weekend and three others sustained injuries in the wreck. The fatal victims of the one-car crash were Diane Lynn Drennen, 17, of Wanenton and John Cecil Snow, 20, living in Warrenton but originally of Ontario, Canada. They were pronounced dead on arrival at Fauquier Hospital, Warrenton of multiple injuries by the medical examiner. Those injured in the crash were Robin Ann Rhodes, 18, Jack Godwin Whitfield, 23, and Sarah Kathryn Pulchine, 18, all of Warrenton. Miss Rhodes is in serious condition in Fairfax Hospital. According to Trooper K. L. Miller, she has undergone a tracheotomy and head surgery and on Tuesday she underwent surgery on her fractured left leg. At press time Wednesday the Hospital reported that she remained in critical condition with multiple injuries and was in intensive care. Miss Fulchine was treated for abrasions and contusions of the face and right leg at the hospital where she was kept over night and released. Whitfield sustained lacerations of the face and possible internal injuries. He was hospitalized over night and released, but was returned to the hospital later and had his spleen removed. It has been determined that Jack Godwin Whitfield was operator of the 1967 Pontiac Christmas Bazaar Here on Dec. 7th Tlie Annual Christmas Bazaar sponsored by the Rappahannock County Garden Club under the Chairmanship of Mrs. William Keim will be held Saturday, December 7 at Trinity Episcopal Church in Washington, Va.

OTO which was owned by Fruman Fred Snow of Ontario, Canada, father of the deceased victim, said the officer. The investigation is incomplete and no charges have been made. Investigation has disclosed that there were three vehicles traveling east on Route 211. The middle vehicle passed the first one and the third vehicle, the GTO, also passed the first one. Hie car went out of control, skidded onto the shoulder and continued skidding sideways in an eastward direction until it struck a tree. Hie first vehicle which was in no way involved in the crash (the one being passed) was reportedly a 1967 bronze Plymouth operated by a female and carrying two children as passengers. The operator of this car has not been specifically identified. Trooper K. L. Miller would like for that person to contact him or this newspaper, please. Hiis double fatality brings the total of traffic deaths in Rappahannock County to 3. In the dense fog which shrouded the area Monday night a car skidded on wet Route 211 near Amissville and struck a tree.I The 69 Dodge was operated by Donald Francis Fleming of Aldie, according to Trooper W. A. B untin who investigated the incident. The vehicle skidded on a curve and struck a tree on the left of the highway. There were no injuries and no charges were made. Damage was estimated at $1,000. A unique two-vehicle collision occurred the same night, Wednesday the 27th on Route 211 three and three tenth miles east of Sperryvillc, and was also investigated by Trooper Miller. An unidentified vehicle skidded on the highway and another behind it and one meeting it attempting to avoid the skidding vehicle struck each other. Involved in the collision were Antonio Charles Bonanno of Washington, D. C. operating a 64 Plymouth and Joseph Samuel Carter of Warrenton in a 49 Ford pick up. Damage to the vehicles was estimated at $300 to the Plymouth and $100 to the truck. No charges were made. Dewey Crucas Looney of Amissville was involved in a crash on route 211 three and a half miles west of Amissville on November 30. He was charged with reckless driving after his 67-68 Ford ran off the right of the road, into a ditch and over an embankment. Damage to the car was estimated at $1,200. Trooper Cited Trooper K. M.

TTiis week I interviewed Stevie Aylor and Tommy Williams: Stevie’s favorite song is “More”. The “Beatles” is her favorite group. Stevie plans to go to college. Her philosophy is “Do what you want to do and don’t worry what other people think.” In answer to the question, “What do adults misunderstand about teenagers the most?” Stevie replied, “That teenagers are human and need respect too.” Tommy’s favorite song is “Little Arrows” and his favorite group is the “Beatles.” His major interest is science. Tommy’s philosophy is “Keep your nose clean.” He plans to attend college after high school. “What do adults misunderstand about teenagers the most?” brought forth the answer, “Teenagers are just as intelligent as adults and come up with the right answer more often.” Rarm-Oiats II Bv \Y.

Hoffman, president of the Tuberculosis and Health Association of Northern Virginia said, “I am proud of our youth of today who have assumed a share in keeping the tradition of Christmas as a symbol of a helping hand to those less fortunate.” He said “we still lean heavily on our adult citizens who realize the importance and satisfaction in helping with many phases of the program to find tuberculosis and help prevent emphysema, chronic bronchitis and similar respiratory diseases. But, it is most reassuring to have our next generation start taking over some of the detail wuir which inane* u pu**iuie lur us to conduct a low-cost, low-pressure mail campaign. “Including the limited time spent by out staff of three for the eight-county area and one part-time clerk, volunteers make it possible to keep our costs much lower in requesting contributions than most organizations. But, then, we always have been a volunteer organization.” He congratulated those who have helped and are scheduled to assist in saying “credit is surely due and appreciated for services rendered by all volunteers of all ages.” Hie amount of $15,191.65 was reported in contributions as of the end of last week.

Marsh Raps Federal Highway Planning Rep. John O. Marsh, jr. objected last week to two administrative regulations proposed by federal agencies-one dealing with interstate highway planning and the other with administration of manpower programs, including unemployment insurance 'and re-employment services. In both instances, the 7th District Congressman supported expressions made to the federal agencies by the responsible authorities of the Commonwealth of Virginia- the State Highway Commissioner and the State Employment Commissioner. In the highway matter, State authorities have taken the position that the proposed new regulation would diminish State control over the routing of highways. The proposed re-organization of the Manpower Administration, in the view of State officials, would reduce the administrative authority of the Virginia Employment commission in regard to programs under its surveillance. Mr. Marsh’s letters follow: Federal Highway Administration Washington, D. C. Gentlemen: “While I do not favor as a rule, ex parte expressions in such matters, I am impelled to express by substantia] concern in regard to the proposed federal regulations on public hearings for highway locations and published in the October 23, 1968, issue of the Federal Register. “It seems to me that there is implicit in these proposed regulations a substantial and unwise extension of federal control over specific locations of federal-aid highways which is inconsistent with the historic role of State Highway Departments in these determinations. “I do believe that there would be a most serious disruption of the national highway program if regulations substantially along these proposed lines were placed in effect. For my own part, it would be my expectation to join in a Congressional effort to override, by legislation if necessary, any regulations further diminishing the judgment role of a state Highway Department in the location of highway routes, even though the routes in question might involve federal funds.” With every good wish, I am Sincerely yours, John 0. Marsh, Jr. Honorable W. Willard Wirtz The Secretary of Labor Washington, D. C. Dear Mr. Secretary: “I have read with concern the details of the proposed reorganization of the Manpower Administration. “In this connection, I should like to associate myself with the objectives presented to you by Governor Smith of West Virginia, in which the representative of the Governor of Virginia concurred. “I do hope that this matter might be given most careful further consideration, as I do believe there are substantial objections, from the standpoint of efficient administration in the reorganization proposed by your office..” With every good wish, 1 am Sincerely yours, John 0. Marsh, Jr. SHOP Rosenberg’s FOR: QUALITY SHOES AND READY-TO-WEAR FREE X-MAS WRAP USE CENTRAL CHARGE, LAYAWAY BANK AMERICARD Trout Stocked In Virginia Lakes Over 100,000 rainbow trout will go into three of Virginia’s larger lakes suitable for trout production in early December, according to Game Commission Fish Division Chief Jack Hoffman.. The seven-inch trout will nearly double their size by next spring and early summer when most are caught. Smith Mountain Lake is scheduled to receive 66,000 trout, Philpott Reservoir 28,000 and Carvin’s Cove Reservoir 6,400. The trout used in the reservoir stocking program are surplus at the hatcheries as a by-product of the regular put-and-take trout stocking program. When the trout are thinned in the hatchery ponds to make room for norma) growth, these extras are placed in the reservoirs as a bonus to the state’s anglers. Only a few of the state’s lakes have water temperatures cool enough and with a sufficient supply of oxygen to support trout. Trout fishermen on most of these lakes enjoy a year-around season and are not required to have a trout license. The main exception is South Holston Reservoir where there is a closed season and a trout license is required. 4 PHONING VIETNAM— (Continued from page 1) most of the calls, he added, were completed from the Vietnam end, rather than from the U.S. became of the difficulty of locating servicemen when calls were placed from the States. However, every effort is made to locate the serviceman when a call is received in Saigon, but it is much more practical for the serviceman to place the call on his own when he is able to do so. Travel restrictions and curfews imposed in Saigon in the past have complicated the task of locating servicemen, said the C&P manager. For this reason, he said that when a call is made to Mr. S. D. Hutton of Amissville will be associated with LULLWATER FARMS NURSERY AND - GARDEN CENTER Route 211 Amissville, Va. Vietnam, it is important for the caller to have the serviceman’s unit, his APO number, and, if possible, a telephone number where he can be reached. The speed of handling a call to Vietnam depends on the volume of calls pending at the time and availability of the serviceman on the Vietnam end. Calls originating in Vietnam are handled on a “first come, first served basis at the various telephone centers established for servicemen. But when a serviceman does get to a telephone, it is usually just a matter of minutes before his call is completed to the States. Calls between the U.S. and Vietnam have been averaging about 140 a day but this figure is expected to increase during the holiday season, Saigon is 13 hours ahead of New York time. Hie heavy concentration of so many troops in a small country at war created some real communications prQblems. Service is still not what we would like it to be but it has been improved over the past several years, said the telephone company manager. Until 1967, servicemen could call home only from Saigon. Calls can now be placed from hospital and bases in Ton Son Nhut, Long Binh, Cam Rahn Bay, Nha Trang and Qui Nhon. After December 1, calls also can be made to the U.S. from Dan Nang. However U.S. callers may still reach only telephones in Saigon and the immediate vicinity. SHOOTING HATCH FRIDAY, DECEMBER 6th Ivy Tea Room near Sperryville, Va. Beginning at 7:30 P.M.

The story is no fairy tale, though for the moment it was breath-taking. Mr. and Mrs. Rudolph Patzig of Sperryville were hiking around one of the nature trails from Skyland in Shenandoah National Park on a recent Sunday. Both were going in the same general direction but not right together. As Mrs. Patzig ambled up a path she met two gentlemen hikers who when they saw her motioned for her to remain still and quiet. She did, and they whispered that there was a bear behind her. She cautiously looked around and sure enough about 15 feet from her was a very large black bear. When she looked around, the animal snorted and showed his teeth and she slithered around behind the nearest tree. Mrs. Patzig said all she could think of was her husband who wears bifocal glasses and must pay strict attention where he is walking. She had visions of him stumbling upon the beast. From behind her tree fort she said loudly, “Rudolph, there’s a bear.” By this time Mr. Patzig had indeed seen it, but the bear turned then and walked away from them. At this point, he took the accompanying photograph. Attend Keyser Funeral Among those from out of the county here to attend funeral services Tuesday for Mrs. John A. Keyser included Judge and Mrs. C.

When they heard something they couldn’t accept as fact they would say, “That sticks in my craw.” or “I can’t swallow that.” Maybe a little of their doubting rubbed off on me. I cannot conceive of a thing being wholly <me thing and wholly another at the same time. Here are a few phrases that ‘stick in my craw’, wholly God wholly human, God in the flesh and Mother of God. I am not trying to be sacriligious, there are just some things I cannot accept. I do accept Christ as being a Son of God. I have no trouble in believing that Mary was a virgin, where I run into trouble is believing she was the Mother of God. I think Christ was more human than divine. Only by being almost entirely human, but with a greater spark of the divine fire of love, could He have manifested as a Son of God in the flesh. As my wife suggests, I may be a nut, but I choose to follow the almost human Christ because He can understand my human frailties. He walked in the WAY I try to walk. “All the days of my life till the night, TTien, when I lay down to slumber awhile May the greenwood of souls be in sight.” Slate Mills News And Personals Mrs. Alice Dorsey Recent overnight guests of Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Alfred were Mrs. Alfred’s niece Mrs. William Vermillion and Mr. Vermillion of White Plains, Md.

Archer*s Bag Low On Refuge Hunts Archers bagged 26 deer during special archery hunts on two National Wildlife Refuges in Virginia during October and early November, a considerably poorer | success than they enjoyed on the' same areas last year, the Game Commission reports. During the 4 day archery only hunt on the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge on Virginia’s Eastern Shore, bowhunters downed only] 3 deer, all of them sikas even though whitetails were also legal this year. Gun hunters took 45 sikas and 7 whitetails on October 25 and 26. Eight of the sikas were reported to be six pointers which puts them in the rare trophy class. The largest whitetail weighed 110 pounds. Archers put in 157 hunter days while gunners invested 581 hunter days in search of their elusive quarry. On Presquile National Wildlife Refuge, near Hopewell, a total of 211 hunters took 23 deer in 8 days of bow hunting, slightly over half the number bagged last year. As usual, the first day’s hunt was most productive yielding 12 deer, most of them bucks. During the second hunt 6 whitetails fell to the bowhunters’ arrows. Even though the number of deer on the Island was considered about equal to last year’s population, they seemed to be far more wary following a season of hunting pressure. Heavy fog present during two of the hunts is credited by some with spooking the deer and reducing the kill. Hunters were selected on the basis of a drawing in September at which time nearly 100 hopeful applicants were turned away after the 300 available hunting permits had been filled. Cadettes Tour Caverns Recently our Cadette Girl Scout Troop +393 Went on an excursion to Luray Caverns.

Security Notes Many people in the area between the ages of 62 and 65 are losing money every month because they have not visited their social security office and inquired about reduced old-age benefits, Mrs. Hazel F. Daly, Manager of the Winchester, Va. Social Security Office, reported recently. It is possible for both men and women 62 and over to receive old-age insurance benefits at a reduced rate if they wish to do so. When persons in this age bracket are questioned about why they had not inquired about benefits, they usually give such BUILDING SUPPLIES • SPECIAL M1LLWORK • DO-IT-YOURSELF SUPPLIES • DEVOE PAINTS • ANDERSON WINDOW UNITS Golladay Building Supply, Inc.

John Walker Jenkins Auctioneering Service Sperryville, Virginia - Phone 987-2401 answers as: ‘ I don’t want my benefits cut. I would rather wait until I am 65 and draw the full amount”, or “I understand that I would have to stop work in order to draw benefits, and I don’t want to quit work.” It is true that everyone who receives old-age benefits before age 65 receives a reduction in their benefit. However, they can usually receive a substantia] amount of benefits before their 65th birthday, and it would be several years before they would be ahead by waiting until they became 65. In an average case, you are ahead for about 15 years when you begin receiving benefits at age 62. TTie idea that one must stop work entirely in order to receive benefits is incorrect. Many people are able to continue working exactly the same as they have in the past and still receive benefits for every month. Others with higher income may receive checks for some months each year, even tnough their income is too high for them to receive checks for every month. Under the Social Security Law, a person is allowed to earn up to $1680 and still receive old-age benefits for all months in a calendar year. If he earns between $1680 and $2880 $1.00 in benefits is deducted for every $2.00 he earns. This means that a person who is entitled to, let’s say, $100 per month in social security benefits can earn a substantial amount in a year and still receive some social security benefits. “I do not want to give the impression that everyone should be receiving old-age insurance benefits when they are 62 years old,” Mrs. Daly said. There are many cases where it would not be wise to file to receive your benefits before 65. For example, a man or woman who works COMPLETE ONErSTOP Building Supply Hardware Paipt Millwork Lumber Warreftton Building Material Co., Inc. ON THE BY-PASS WARRENTON, VA. Phone 347-1400 regularly and earns over $1800 per year would probably not be entitled to any benefits. In such a case there would be no advantage in applying for benefits before age 65. “The point I wish to make is that there is a possibility that you could receive benefits now if you are at least 62 years old. The only way that you can find out for sure is by contacting the Social Security Office nearest you.” For answers to your questions about reduced old-age insumace benefits or any other phase of our program, visit your Social Security Office.
