Clatterbuck Flips Ford in Washington An auto overturned in the I1 Town of Washington last Friday injuring the lone occupant and totaling the vehicle. Lonnie Gene Clatterbuck of Sperryville was the operator of the 1965 Ford traveling west, which turned over after rounding the sharp curve in front of the Merrill Motor Company. The car skidded, struck the sidewalk and flipped. Clatterbuck was taken to Warren Memorial Hospital, Front Royal, where he was treated for severe lacerations of his head and released. He was charged with reckless driving. Trooper J. B. Willis investigated the crash. Two collisions occurred Saturday night between Washington and Sperryville on Route 211, but no injury resulted. The first happened about 11:50 p.m. two and two tenths milesi east of Sperryville and involved a 1966 Chrysler owned and operated by Carroll Vincent Judd of Falls Church, heading west, and a 1965 Dodge owned and operated by Norwood Paul Wickham of Front Royal. According to Trooper Willis, Juddi veered into the wrong traffic lane and struck the Dodge. Damage to the Chrysler was estimated at $25. and at S250 to the Dodge. Judd was charged with reckless driving. At 12:15 a.m. two and a half' miles west of Washington a hit! and run crash occurred. James! Arthur Freeman of Washington, Va. was operating a 1969 Chevelle owned by Rufus Randolph Frye of Boston, Va. and was leaving Pine Knott Inn and heading west when he was struck by an unidentified vehicle which failed to stop.

With Chester Gap Supper A Ham and Turkey Supper will served at the Chester Gap Fire dal) Saturday, May 17 starting at; 3 p.m. DST. Benefit of the Fire! Company. 55 Benefits Here Total $57,000 Mo. A record S57.000 in monthly social security benefits was being paid to residents of Rappahannock County at the end of December 1968, an increase of three percent above the amount payable at the end of February 1968, according to Mrs. Hazel F. Crumpton, district manager for social security. “Throughout the country, monthly benefits payable at the end of 1968 amounted to nearly S2.1 billion, some S350 million higher than at the end of 1967," Mrs. Crumpton continued. “Approximately three-quarters of the increased monthly amount resulted from higher benefit rates authorized by the 1967 Amendments to the Social Security Act. The remainder of the increase was simply due to a greater number of beneficiaries ’’ By the end of May 1969. social security will be paying monthly benefits to more than 25 million people -• 1 out of every 8 Americans. Although retired workers comprise the largest group of beneficiaries, almost one-fourth of all people receiving benefits are under 60 There are currently more than 3.8 million children and .5 million young widowed mothers receiving payments. Vet the public continues to think of social security as a program for old people. In Rappahannock County, 215 people under 60 are receiving benefits. That figure breaks down nto 115 under 18, 11 between 18 - 21, and 89 between 22 59. Many students would have been unable to continue their educations were it not for the 1965 Amendments to the Social Security Act which extended survivors and dependents insurance benefits to students until their 22nd birthdays. In 1968, that provision resulted in continuing benefits for 470,000 students. Monthly payments to the family of a worker who dies leaving a widow and two or more children range e from $82.50 to $434.40 a month, depending on the worker’s average earnings under social security Payments to the young family of a worker who dies at an early age could total as much as $85,000 to $100,000. Mrs Crumpton also pointed out that by the end of 1968, approximately 90 percent of Americans 65 and ovef were either receiving cash benefits or would have been eligible for such benefits if they or their spouses had not been working. In terms of Medicare, almost all people in the country 65 or over are eligible for hospital insurance benefits. Likewise, 95 percent of all older persons in the country have elected coverage under the voluntary supplementary medical insurance plan which pays physicians’ fees NOTICE The phone number for County Forest Warden Raymond Johnson of Woodville has been changed and is 987-8444.

Single Men Galore In Rappahannock For single women who are interested in meeting single men - object matrimonyRappahannock County is the place. There appears to be an unseemly profusion of bachelors running around loose in the area. According to the latest estimate, there are now some 167 unmarried men locally for every 100 unmarried women, considerably more than in most communities. Elsewhere in the United States, the ratio is 124 per 100 and, in the State of Virginia 139. Such are the figures, according to data released by the Department of Commerce in connection with its annual report on marital and family status in the United States. The findings are that the proportion of single men to single women is quite different in some sections of the country than in others. In many localities, in fact, the surplus is in the other direction. lhe adjusted figures show that about 33.5% of Rappahannock County’s male population above age 14 is unmarried„ as against 21.3% of the female population over 14. Nationally, according to the report, 26.7% of the men over 14 and 20.9% of the women are single. The figures do not include persons who have been widowed or divorced. They refer only to those who have never been married The marriage rate steps up sharply as the young folk graduate from their teens into their 20’s. Eventually, nearly everyone gets married. An estimate by a Census Bureau Statistician shows that as fe>w as 4% of the men and 3% of the women in their late 20's are likely to enter middle age without having been married. However, in most parts of the country today, there is a temporary marriage squeeze because of the shortage of males at the normal marrying ages. It all dates back to the 1940's, with the low birth rate during the war and the baby boom that followed. As a result, for many i young women bom just after the jwar and now ready for marriage, | there are not enough men slightly older than themselves available. ! In Rappahannock County this I year, there will be approximately j 2 3 0 women in the prime marrying ages, 18 to 21. As for the men, who marry between 20 and 23 for the most part, there ! will be 240 in the local area.

Letter To Editor Mrs. Sarah Latham, Editor The Rappahannock News Dear Mrs. Latham, On behalf of our church I wiht to thank you for the fine publicity you gave to our recent revival at Amissville Baptist Church. We are also grateful for the informative articles that appeared in The Rappahannock News concerning the Crusade of the Americas revival effort. It gives one a good feeling to know that the churches of the county have such a friend. Sincerely, Charles F. Kindred, Pastor Amissville Baptist Church Proclamation Rescue Squad Week 1969 The volunteer rescue squad movement began in Virginia in 1928 with the establishment of the Roanoke Life Saving and First Aid Crew. Bom of the experience and vision of Julian S. Wise, the program has grown into a humanitarian effort that is international inin scope. Here in Virginia thousands of volunteers give their time and services, at considerable personal sacrifice, to aid in the work of our rescue squads. Their sole support is derived from contributions by fellow citizens. In tribute to the men and women who man the units throughout the Commonwealth, it is appropriate that the week of May 18-24, 1969, be designated as Rescue Squad Week in Virginia. As Governor, I call upon all our citizens to take note of this occasion and to pledge their assistance to our volunteer rescue squads. Mills E. Godwin, Jr. Governor From The Book w "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” (Gen. 1:1) Some folks have trouble believing the miracles recorded in the Scriptures. Attempts have been made to explain them away in various ways. Of course, when one doubts the miracle, he is likely to doubt the other great Bible truths. I think that if you begin where the Bible begins — with God — you will have no trouble with the miracles. Rationalists reject miracles because they cannot be explained. But why do we think we should be able to explain everything? The Bible says that God’s thoughts are as far above our thoughts as the heavens are above the earth.

Your Southern State* Cooperative Agency | Today*s Woman Judy Burtner Extension Agent, Home Economics Storing Seasonal Clothing Now is the time of the year to store away the woolen garments that were worn by the family members during the winter months. There are several rules which if followed will make it a pleasure to get the clothes out in the fall. Clothing should be stored seasonally to give more room in closet for clothing in use and to protect clothing not in use from light fading, gas fading, extra soil, wear from coat hangers and attacking insects. Be sure that all garments are clean before storing. For woolens, have them dry cleane , if not washable. This is most important because when clothes moths attack a garment, they hit spots or stains first. Store immediately after thorough sunning and brushing or cleaning. Protect garments from clothes moths by placing them in a box and using a sandwich fold in paper - folding ends of paper over twice at end and seal or tie securely. Seal garment bag securely at top around hanger and across the bottom after double fold. Use scotch tape or gummed paper. Whenever possible, always store in boxes rather than on coat hangers because the coat hangers can cause extra wear on the garment, especially if it is a heavy garment. Use the extra precaution against clothes moths by adding paradicholorobenzine crystals or naphthalene flakes. Put crystals in bag or paper and lay on top of garments in box or hang in a bag close to the top, as the fumes are heavier than air and will fall. Label contents of package so that seal will not be broken until garment is to be used. Put sweaters and skirts which match in one box for cold days or special occasions, rather than keep all sweaters and all skirts together. Thus you can open the box containing only what you need. Launder washable rayons and cottons., do not starch or iron when girls are growing or skirts are apt to be longer next season, let the hem out before washing and leave out until the next season. Fold and pack in chest, trunk or cardboard boxes. Keeping the past rules in mind will make the job of getting winter clothing out next fall, less of a task.

Law Requires Cyclist Protection Richmond, Va. . . . Colonel H. W. Burgess, Superintendent of State Police, announced today that in accordance with the provisions of Section 46.1-172 of the Code of Virginia, standards for windshields, glasses and goggles required to be used by motorcyclists have been established and the law requiring their use will be enforced as of July 1, 1969. The 1968 General Assembly amended this law to provide that anyone operating a motorcycle must wear either glasses or goggles of an approved type or have the motorcycle equipped with a windshield, also of an approved type. The Superintendent of State Police was directed to establish standards of approval within one year of the law’s enactment. This was accomplished April 1, 1969, after a public hearing. Lionel burgess said that the standards of the United States of America Standards Institute were used and that all manufacturers and retailers have been so advised. The delay until July 1 foi enforcement, Colonel Burgess said, should give ample time to manufacturers for securing approval of their equipment and marketing it. Colonel Burgess stated further that face protection is most necessary to the operator of a motorcycle since dust, insects or any foreign matter in the eyes can cause an operator to lose control of his motorcycle and injure not only himself but someone else. Here, Colonel Burgess said an approved face shield could be used in place of glasses or goggles. All official motorcycle inspection stations have been supplied with copies of these standards and Colonel Burgess said that prospective purchasers having any doubt as to whether equipment is approved should consult any member of the State Police. Read the Want Ads! It Pays! Livestock Survey The Post Office Department announced today that Rural Mail Carriers and Star Route Contractors will begin distributing June 1, 1969 Livestock Survey card$, to farmer-patrons on their routes about May 21. Your Post Office assists the Department of Agriculture each year in making this and two other surveys. Livestock cards returned by farmers to their carriers will be mailed direct to the Virginia Crop Reporting Service in Richmond. Information from each card will be combined with other reports to give indications of changes in livestock on farms in the Old Dominion. Using these facts, estimates will be made of the number of cattle and calves, and hogs and pigs on Virginia farms as of June 1. In addition, estimates of the number of milk cows, the calf crop, spring sows farrowed and pigs saved, and plans for fall farrowing will be determined from information obtained from the June 1 Livestock Survey. So, next week if you find in your mailbox a card titled “Livestock Survey, June 1, 1969, don’t put it aside. It was placed there by your carrier. Postmasters of the county urge that you fill out the card and return it to your carrier as soon as possible. It is important that you return the card for your farm since only a given number of farms will receive these cards and your community will be represented according to the number of cards returned. Cave Onyx formations at Caverns of Luray in Luray, Va., are estimated from 10 to 12 million years old. Trout Stocked(Continued from page 1) 22 pounder killed by Dewey Cameron in Fauquier County and checked at Chester Gap. All the turkeys taken seem to have been for the most part, large birds. Hiis holds with the way it has been with all our game taken during the 1968-69 season. Everything has been of good size, relatively abundant and in top condition. Let’s hope this trend will continue for a few years. Statewide, approximately 2000 pheasants have been released this Spring. Rappahannock County received 100 of those and the release was made on the Eldon Farm at Woodville. The hybrid Iranian Blackneck-Chinese Ringneck remains the mainstay of the Game Commission’s foreign game bird program. This was the species released here. These birds need, foremost for the next few years, suitable habitat and good protection. One of the most promising areas where these birds have been released is in Page County, which of course, habitat and terrain-wise is not much different than Rappahannock. Two previous releases have been made in the Flint Hill area. One in the Spring of ’67 and again in ’68. It is still too soon to determine if these stockings have been a success or failure. Often these birds will initially dwindle in number and then come back strong as a generation bom and raised in the wild begin to reproduce. It may take five or six years before any increase can be noticed. Probably 10 or more before a huntable population can be established'. It’s a long way to go at best, but hopefully these fine birds will like Rappahannock County and settle down here.

Mr. James P. Boyle, District Director of Internal Revenue for Virginia, said that taxpayers using Form 1040X need only enter the information required to correct the mistake made on the original Form 1040 or 1040A. Another complete tax return does not have to be filed. Errors in arithmetic will be corrected by Internal Revenue i Service and an amended return i should not be filed. About 150,000 taxpayers used Form 1040X last year when it was first introduced. The form ! makes it easier for taxpayers to | amend returns previously filed and speeds the processing of any additional refund that may be due. Mr. Boyle said a taxpayer generally has up to three years after the deadline for filing a return to claim a refund Copies of Form 1010X and instructions for filling it out are 1 available at local IRS offices, i-s RANGE V FIRE IS 1 WILDFIRE ’latterbuck’s mother Mrs. Robert filler at Lincoln.

Recently I received a letter from a brother in which was a newspaper clipping. The clipping told of a tornado that swept through an area where I lived as a lad. The tornado did quite a lot of damage, but the whole impact, to my mind, was about the damage done to my old home church. One of my first memories of the old church was when I was a tiny tot. There was a picnic, a very large crowd, notables from far and near, some gray uniforms of the Confederacy, a few blue of the Union, friends now. The pastor was a Col. Henderson. It amazed me to see these old soldiers, with their arms around each other, crying like lost children. I kept hearing the word SESQUI-CENTENNIAL, in my ignorance its meaning was lost on me. My parents later explained its meaning to me, LOOK LEARN BY AC GORDON 1. About how many stars can a person with good eyesight see with his naked eye? 2. What candidate ran the greatest number of times for the Presidency of the United States? 3. How much is the average American family today spending per year for food? 4.

(Answers on Page 8) Once, after returning from some of my wanderings, the church clerk told me that THE OLD CHURCH had missed me, that she needed my help. After a reasonable donation she accepted me back as a member in good standing. I’ve never regretted it. I remember my parents sitting I near the front of the church, they were not ashamed to be there. The church was filled most of th^ time, even the AMEN CORNER. And the people sang as if they meant it, PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM ALL BLESSINGS FLOW. And as memories come flooding in from the past, tears rise from the heart and gather in the eyes - while thinking of days that are no more. So many of them are gone ‘the old familiar faces’. There was a little girl whose hair was like white cornsilk, she seemed to like to wear a red ribbon in her hair, or maybe it was her mother’s idea. We would seldom say anything to each other but I thought she was about the prettiest thing in all creation. Her dad owned the farm next to my folks but he had moved into town. They still came out to the old church on Sunday, she would smile and speak to me. I would smile my bashful smile while my little old boy heart would do flip flops. Years passed, we saw each other less often. The last time I saw her I had ridden my motorcycle up to a place, dismounted and was beating some of the dust from my clothes, looking up I saw her standing beside a car. She said nothing, but our eyes met and held for an instant in time. She was still beautiful - I was a dusty tramp. She married a few days later. GOODNIGHT LUCIA MAE, WHEREVER YOU ARE.

Happiness is . . . .The juniors and seniors of Rappahannock County High School and their guests had a delightful evening at the annual prom held Saturday night. The music was good, the decorations unique and in time with the Roman theme. Junior Fox Hunters Show Junior members of the Northern Virginia Fox Hunters Association held their own Bench Show and Field Trial last week. People-wise the event, held at the Oliver Durants’, was a dead heat. Just which had the best time, the oldsters of the youngsters, no one could tell. Most felt it to be a photo-finish but no one had a good-t i m emeasuring camera. Twenty-five youngsters entered 48 hounds (entries were limited to 2 each). Twelve participated in the Bench Show judged by George Anglin of Washington, D. C. All age and Derby hounds, both sexes, were shown together. For some exhibitors it was a tip-toeing stretch to reach their hounds when on the bench. At one point Jerry Smith (Gene’s youngest) was having trouble getting his hound to stand quietly so he gave its tail a jerk. Hound fell off the bench onto Jerry. Both went down but neither were harmed! Final tally showed following results: 1st - ralconhurst Mark G. - Paul Griffith - Culpeper. 2nd - Red Oak Dina Shore • Misty Lynne Hitt - Woodville. 3rd - Fan Tan - Charles Sheads - Rixeyville. 4 th Slick Essie May Clinedinst - Madison. 5th - Mark ■ Jerry Smith - Luray. 6th -4 Tuck - J. R. Waters - Luray. 7th - Tippy • Diane Sours • Luray. 8th - Bill - Larry Coppedge • Madison. 9th - Saytan - Mike Barton - Norfolk. 10th Little Dixie - Mike Jameson - Culpeper. Hounds were cast at daybreak with the hunt lasting five hours. Most of the running was after red fox on Hitt’s and Paris mountains. Judges did a swell job “hitting the brush” as evidenced by the number of hounds scored for “trailing”. Mike Barton won 1st High General Average, Derby Hound, with his Saytan. Other H. G. A. winners in order were: Bill Larry Coppedge of Madison; Janie ■ Donald Hitt, Jr. of Warrenton; Yancey’s Bill - Eddie Yancey of Culpeper; Zip • Smohey Saya: i ('mild b* you? Koic*t firm nuu flood*!

Marsh, Jr., said in Front Royal Friday that “the merchandising of pornography directed at young people has become big business and seems now to require the serious attention of the Federal Government, as it is a major interstate enterprise.” The 7th District Congressman noted that President Nixon recently sent a special message to Congress on the subject. Marsh spoke at a Boy Scout banquet in the Methodist Church social hall here' honoring Scoutmaster Kenneth Bovard on his retirement as Scoutmaster of Troop 52. He praised, “the dedicated voluntary adult guidance contributed by such concerned citizens as Ken Bovard - a resource of leadership which is beyond price. The Scout program provides the type leadership that young men need to build character.” “Much of this material is entering households in envelopes directed to minors, and there are indications that mailing lists of student-oriented publications are being used in some instances;” Marsh said; “in other cases, the unsolicited material is addressed to adults, or to a ‘postal patron’ with a notation on the envelope that the enclosure is for adults, and may be refused if unwanted -- an obvious incitement of the curiosity of young people in the home.” Additionally, hard-core pornography - material with no redeeming artistic merit - is being peddled in retail outlets frequented by young people - a situation which demands better surveillance by concerned parents and law-enforcement authorities in the application of existing local ordinances or the strengthening of these legal measures,” Marsh said. He noted that, “the dividing line between unredeemable pornography and material which might have some interest, other than prurient, to adults of artistic bent is indistinct, and both law-enforcement personnel and parents have been inhibited by a line of court decisions which, in my view, represnts over-generous treatment of pornographers”. Marsh said he thought it probable that, “the Congress, in the light of the President’s Soc. Security Notes Recently a small farm operator, let’s call him Harold Tiller, met with the social security representative, as he would soon be 62. Mr. Tiller brought a copy of his most recent Federal Income Tax Return along with evidence of his date of birth. In discussing Mr. Tiller’s tax return with him, the social security representative pointed out how important il*>was for a farmer to file his tax returns if he had net income of at least $400 or a gross of at least $600 in order to obtain credit under social security. It was pointed out that everyone needs a certain number of quarters of coverage under social security in order to be insured for monthly benefits on reaching refinement age. Mr. Tiller needed a little over five years of credit. A farmer or any other self-employed person receives social security credit by having at least $400 net income from self-employment; or, in the case of a farmer only, has a gross income of over $600 and files using the optional method. In order to receive credit, a tax return must be filed. The self-employed person receives four quarters of coverage under social security for each year he has sufficient income to receive credit. Fortunately, Mr. Tiller had more than enough credit to begin drawing social security when he was old enough. Had Mr. Tiller failed to file his returns, generally he could have filed and received credit for only the past three years. This would mean he would have to wait until he had three more years of creditable selfemployment income before he would have had sufficient coverage to draw monthly benefits. Needless to say, Mr. Tiller was glad he had filed his tax returns on time. The social security office at 20 S. Cameron St., Winchester, Va.

The telephone number is 667 1511. jmessage, and increasing complaints from the public, will consider seriously what additional legislation might be helpful, at l the federal level, in curbing this [reprehensible, but highly-profitable, interstate business”.

The heaviest stocking was in Rockingham and Augusta Counties where good habitat/ and an intensive predator control program have combined to create a good opportunity for establishing a new species. Other releases were made in Southwest Virginia, Piedmont and Tidewater sections to bolster previous stocking efforts. The hybrid Iranian blackneck - Chinese ringneck is still the mainstay of the Game Commission’s foreign game bird introduction program. • Although usually stocked in the fall, a number of Kalij pheasants were released in Henry County this spring to encourage nesting before the groups became widely dispersed. Followups on previous releases in Giles County showed that the birds survived Virginia’s HILLSDALE Drive-In Theatre WASHINGTON. VA.
