Mr. Frisbee will be here at the invitation of the Rappahannock Historical Society. He has done considerable research on Virginia antiquities, spent a year at Mount Vernon where he helped organize Mount Vemon’s collection of Washington documents and manuscripts, studied economic impact of preservation on local communities :n Virginia, and helped prepare legislation relating to Historic Preservation. He is a young man with intense interest in the values of the Colonial and Federal Periods of Virginia history. I hvery person in the County interested in the preservation of Rappahannock antiquities is invited to attend this meeting of the Historical Society to hear Mr. Frisbee of the National Trust. Members of the Historical Society are urged to invite friends and neighbors too, and prospective members for the Historical Society are especially invited. An attempt will be made to reactivate some of the research committees during the winter. It is hoped that further study can be done on the hundred or more cemeteries, and that sites of the more than sixty mills which once served the county can be located and identified. Plans are to try again to positively establish the identity of the oldest house, the oldest mill site, the oldest bridge and the oldest anything of interest in Rappahannock. This can be done only by the friendly cooperation of the people who know. You will be welcomed Friday night, December 5th, at the Library in Washington, Va. at 7:45 p.m. to discuss some of these things. NOTICE All subscribers who have had renewal notices for October and November must remit to this office, Rappahannock News, Box 38, Washington, Va., 22747 within a week or names will be removed from the mailing list.

Abundance of Game and Good Weather Favor Hunters in Area Deer hunters continue to have a good season as they are favored by fair weather and plenty of deer in the mountains. Rappahannock’s kill now stands at something over 100. Exact figures are not available since some deer have been checked in adjoining counties. The apparent lack of mast may be forcing the deer out of the Park and towards the lowlands. Whatever the reason hunters are taking more and apparently larger deer than they have for several years. Rappahannock was a long time in recording a bear kill but when it did it was worth the wait. At least it was worth it to David Pullen who downed a mammoth 499 pound black bear Thanksgiving Day. The following deer have been checked since the first two days of the season: Bradford:s Store, Flint Hill; Olen L. Dyer, Maryland, 7 points; Jerry Foster, Washington, 10; Gavor Foster, Flint Hill, 10; Darien K. Rhodes, Front Royal, 8; Homer C.

U.S. Foods Promotedj On Overseas Market Success in expansion of overseas markets for American farm products means more cash sales for local farmers, according to H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of the Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) Committee Private enterprise and the U. S Department of Agriculture work cooperatively in this market development effort, he said, for the benefit of agriculture as a whole. Developing and building foreign demand for American food includes reaching the consumer directly via advertising and other methods. It also includes approaches to the wholesale and retail trade through trade fairs, special commodity delegations, distribution of sample products, and the like. Mr. Barksdale pointed out that sales of farm commodities abroad are important to the U S. balance of payments and the economic health of the Nation. He also commented on the| complexities of building and keeping farm export markets' Diplomatic negotiations at the highest level are involved; sometimes, particularly in thej intensive effort now under way to ease barriers to world trade Competition must always be considered. This means buyers must have assurance of continuous high quality of American farm commodities They must be assured of a steady supply, year after year And American farm products must be priced competitively in world markets. . Other factors play an important role in export sales. Process$tg, packaging and transportation can have either positive or negative effects. For instance, he said, it can make quite a difference to the consumer whether an apple, an avocado or a potato traveled by tramp steamer or air freight David L. Pullen of Washington, Va. poses proudly with the 499-pound black bear which he bagged Thanksgiving Day in Gid Brown Hollow. He spotted the huge beast while hunting in the mountain on his father s farm and fired once with his 270 rifle. The animal went several steps and sat down then got up and started toward him. He fired the second shot and felled the bear It was necessary to get the farm tractor and haul Bruin out of the mountain.

Under new ownership and management, Skyline Ski Area has taken a new lease on life. Work is proceeding rapidly toward a vastly improved operation, with improved mechanical facilities and an enlarged snowmaking plant. Everything points to one of the best if not the best season Skyline has ever had. Skyline’s largest slope, Catamount, is easily one of the best south of Pennsylvania. Served by a 2100 foot T-Bar, the slope drops over 500 feet in its 2400 foot length, offering a sufficiently steep incline to inspire the expert skiers. Two other slopes are tailored for the Intermediate and the beginner skiers. A large day lodge offering food and refreshments and a shop for the rental of ski equipment and a nursery completes the complex at Skyline. The area is under the management of Colonel Evan A. McNear who invites Virginians to become skiers at Skyline. “It’s a great sport for beginners of all ages. People in our area should take advantage of the less crowded conditions on weekdays and come to learn to ski at Skyline.” Othmar Mair, a famous s Fire and Rescue i Squad Notes \v\\v\ Rappahannock Rescue Squad took Billy Freeman to the Warren Memorial Hospital on Nov. 29.

The number of schools in Rappahannock County have been reduced from eleven to two in the last ten years The reading level of elementary school students continually increased during the last ten years The dropout rate of students has declined rapidly in the past ten years. The average educational cost per student in Rappahannock County is less than the average educational cost per student in Virginia, and is less than each of the counties surrounding Rappahannock County.” A fourteen year old boy who recently moved into this county who had never attended school because of defective sight has been examined and fitted with glasses through the efforts of the Rappahannock Lions. This boy is progressing satisfactorily in a home educational course with the help of a special education teacher During tne uecemDer iu meeting a representative of the Lions District 24A Eye Sight Conservation Committee will be the guest speaker.
