VA. STATE U3RA!tt RICHMOND 19. VA. 23219 Volume XXI. Number 32 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY, JULY 16, 1970 •:< \U 7 10c Copy $ mrm James Leake, right, was installed as president of the Rappahannock Jaycees at its meeting last Wednesday at Village Inn, Sperryville. He receives the gavel from outgoing president, Netus (Sonny) Brown. College Costs Mount For Local Parents This fall, a greater proportion of Rappahannock County’s young people than ever before will be heading for college. And, for the parents of most of them, it presents a bigger financial problem than before because college costs have been zooming skyward. The result is that funds they had set aside for the purpose are no longer adequate. Added to this is the fact that bank loans are harder to get, interest rates are high and Federal aid to needy students has been reduced. Hardest hit by the mounting costs and the tight money conditions are those families that have more than one child going to college at the same time. They have to dig even deeper. Based upon the number of Rappahannock County students heading for college and upon the new tuition rates, local families will be carrying a $360,000 load for the coming academic year, it is estimated. Data on college enrollments for the coming semester and on the costs involved were compiled by the U. S. Office of Education, the Census Bureau and others. Their figures indicate that 1,840,000 youths will be starting college this year, bringing the total enrollment to a record 7,700,000. Rappahannock County s contingent will total 140, it is estimated. This compares with 70 in the local area who were going to college in 1960. How much they will have to pay will depend upon where they are going. The range is broad. At state colleges and other publicly-supported institutions the average outlay will be about $1,250 for tuition, fees, room and board. That is the price for those living in the state. For non-residents it is higher. Private colleges also vary widely in cost, the average being about $2,720, the Office of Education states. But that’s not all. Then comes the cost of transportation, books, clothing, recreation and miscellaneous items. Taking everything Into consideration, the total cost of a year in a public college at this time is around $1,750 and, 1n a private college, $3,400. The $360,000 price tag for Rappahannock County parents is on the presumption that the local students will divide equally between public and private colleges. "town Zoning Meeting The Town Council of Washington, Va. and the Rappahannock Planning Commission will hold a joint hearing on proposed zoning for the town. The hearing is set for July 21 at 8 p.m. in the courthouse at Washington. At this time citizens views for or against the proposed zoning ordinance for the town will be heard. A copy of the ordinance may be seen at the County Clerk’s office, Washington, Va. Wheat Certificates Set $1.57 Per Bu. Domestic marketing certificates for eligible 1970-crop wheat will be worth $1.57 per bushel, 5 cents per bushel more than for the 1969-crop certificate value, it was announced today by the U. S. Department of Agriculture. The certificates are based on wheat parity price as of July 1, 1970. Payments totaling about $830 million will be made mostly between July 5 and July 20, to approximately 949,000 farmers participating in the 1970-wheat program. i ne ceruucaie value is Dasea on the difference between July 1, 1970, wheat parity price of $2.82 per bushel and the 1970-crop national average loan rate of $1.25 per bushel. Certificate payments to farmers are based on projected production on 48 percent of 1970 wheat acreage allotments. For 1969-crop wheat, certificates worth $1.52 per bushel were issued on 43 percent of the projected production of the allotted acres. In determining total return per bushel for wheat, cooperators divide their certificate payment by their total production to get an average per bushel payment. By adding this to the price they receive in the market, participants In the program find their total return per bushel. Wheat marketing certificates are authorized by the two-price wheat provisions of the Food and Agriculture Act of 1965. Under this law, farmers participating in the wheat program are eligible for loans and payments totaling 100 percent of wheat parity price for their share of wheat used for domestic food. Millers and others purchase wheat marketing certificates at 75 cents per bushel to cover the quantities of wheat processed for domestic food use. The remainder of the. certificate payment Is made up by Che Government. Retired Teachers District N Meeting The members of District N Retired Teachers Association held a business and luncheon meeting on July 7 at the Quality Motel in Front Royal. Presiding was Mrs. Mary W. Collins who welcomed guests and introduced Mrs. Leslie Fox Keyser as the speaker. Mrs. Keyser’s inspiring talk was followed by the business meeting which included a discussion of the Association’s constitution and by-laws. Some suggested revisions were considered and will be worked out by a committee then voted on at the fall meeting. An item of importance under discussion was the organization of local associations and their relation to state groups of this kind. The combined efforts of these organizations make benefits available to all retired Virginia teachers. But for the work of these organizations, the increase in salary for retired teachers which becomes effective in August, would not be forthcoming. Representatives from the counties of Frederick, Clarke, Fauquier, Prince William, Warren and Rappahannock were present. Miss Annie Miller Almond of Washington represented Rappahannock, and reported the meeting worthwhile and enjoyable. Fire and Rescue Squad Notes Kappanannock Rescue Squad on Friday, July 10 took Mrs. Selena Daily from home in Sperryville to Warren Memorial Hospital. On Monday Donnie Keyser was taken from home to Culpeper Memorial Hospital. Washington Fire Company answered a call Sunday to a transformer on fire at Nelson Nethers home. Flint Hill Rescue Squad on Friday took Elizabeth Freeman from home in Gid Brown Hollow to the University of Virginia Hospital. Mrs. Billy Menefee was taken from her home in Sperryville to Culpeper Memorial Hospital on Friday by the Sperryville Rescue Unit. Food, Cars Rank High in Spending How are Rappahannock County families apportioning the larger incomes they are now receiving? How much are they spending in local retail stores? According to a new consumer market study covering the past year, local outlays for goods and services continued at a high level, despite inflation and despite a general feeling of uncertainty with respect to the national economy. The facts and figures, listing the amounts spent locally for automobiles, food, clothing, furniture and other commodities, come from the Standard Rate and Data Service. Its survey, just released gives comparable date for each section of the country. In Rappahannock County, it shows a large part of the consumer dollar went to stores selling food and automotive equipment. Between them, they accounted for 31 percent of all retail business done in the local area. Food purchases alone,, in supermarkets, bakeries, butcher shops, delicatessens and the like, amounted to $522,000. These expenditures covered only food that was bought for home consumption. Not included is money spent in restaurants, lunch rooms and other dining and drinking places. Just how much the take-home food cost, on a per-family basis, was determined by dividing the total amount spent by the number of families. It averaged out to $439 per family. As for retail outlets for cars, motorcycles, boats and other automotive equipment, their total for the year came to $588,000. The year before it was $541,000 The survey shows that otfer, retail lines also turned in good figures for the period. Those selling general merchandise, in variety and department stores, chalked up a total of $668,000. The volume in stores handling furniture and other home furnishings was $264,000.

Migratory Bird Seasons Set September 5 was picked as opening day for the 1970 dove season, the first segment of which will extend through October 31, reports Game Commission Executive Director Chester F.

More Spent Locally On Home Fixups Rappahannock County families are going in for home improvements in a big way these days. They are spending more money for alterations, additions, replacement and maintenance than they ever did. In the past year, local home owners spent an estimated $265,000 to spruce up their homes, based upon government data showing average outlays per housing unit in the regional area. It represented an average expenditure locally of $221 per unit. Nationally, the average was $285. Many homeowners spent considerably more than this, of course, and others much less, since only a small proportion of (Continued on Page ;i) Confirmed Concert Dates Announced Concert dates for the Culpeper Community Concert Association have been confirmed and are as follows: Nov. 20, 1970, Wittemore and Lowe, piano duo; Feb. 27, 1971, Romero String Quartet; March 13, 1971, Columbia Operatic Trio.

Committee Chairman Today’s Woman Judy Burtner Extension Agent, Hone Economies President Nixon has proclaimed the week of July 19-25 as National Farm Safety Week. During 1970, many Virginians will be faced with the financial and emotional hurt that accompanies a home fire and the loss of personal treasures. Worse yet, will be the heart break associated with those who will be killed or injured. Many of this number will be children under five years of age and adults 65 and older. Without a doubt, it is best to try to keep fires from happening but being prepared and knowing what to do in case Are breaks out can mean the difference between life and death. When fire breaks out at home, when every second counts, it’s too late to start plans on how to get everyone out. The time to plan for a quick escape from a burning building is now, when you have seconds (and minutes) to spare. Here are some fire escape pointers which could save your life or the lives of your family. But, remember, a fire escape plan works best when it has been thoroughly practiced and everyone knows exactly what to do.* Draw up a home floor plan and O0P out an 'esgqjNg route. Bedrooms are the most important. Have an alternate route available, such as window, from each room-you can never count on using a stairway or hall.

The notice brought results in that I had phone calls and conversations from persons in the county who had retired from teaching positions elsewhere but are now living in Rappahannock. I was not aware of these persons. They are interested in organizing. I’ll be glad to hear from anyone desiring to help Rappahannock have an organization. As soon as I feel that I have heard further from others who may have been unknown to me, I will set another date for a “get-together.” I feel the organization is very worthwhile and can be made a social event for us to get together once in awhile. Annie Miller Almond to use porch or garage roofs, ladders or trees as ways down to safety in case normal exits are blocked by fire. Make sure exist windows always work easily, easily enough for a child to open. Know how to call the Are department. Memorize the number. Teach children how to call the operator and report a fire. Assign appropriate family members to aid small children, invalids and elderly persons. Many home fires break out after the family is asleep. Therefore, close bedroom doors at night. Closed doors will hold back smoke and flames, giving you extra time to get out. Also, close basement and hall doors. If you suspect a Are, always test a closed door before opening it.

The best escape plan usually means going out the nearest door--and fast. Don’t stop except to help those who can’t get out by themselves. The most valuable things in your house are you and your family. Don’t panic, if fire blocks your normal exit. Just call on your alternate plan, go out a window. Except as a last resort to save a human life, never go back into a burning building for anything. first let us discern Detween sarcasm and sympathy, both are attributes of the human animal. I suppose both have their function, we will use both at this time. If Mr. Brown offended you, would you go over to Mr. Johnson’s home and break some of the windows or maybe cut down some of his apple trees? If you were a person of mediocre intelligence you would not; yet we have people in our society who do these things and it is more or less condoned. They have certain inalienable rights. Phooey, and a double one to boot. The other day I read about a policeman striking one of these boys, I mean YOUTHS, on the head with his night stick. This boy, youth, was just going about his business, such as breaking store windows, setting fires and inciting law enforcement officers. I don’t blame the pig, I mean officer, for cracking a few noggins. If he has to use force to enforce the law, that is his job. I don’t condone sadism but I do think we should have laws. The GOOD BOOK says you should obey the law ‘for it is right’. It also says it is the will of God. There were ten laws set up for the guidance of the Hebrews. They have never been excelled. There is another law - the law of karma, ‘what you sow you shall reap’. Christ said that all the law is summed up in loving your God and your neighbor.

Home Fixups(Continued from Page 1) them undertake major Improvements in any one year. During 1969, according to a sample survey conducted by the Department of Commerce and reports from the National Association of Home Builders, approximately $13.5 billion was spent by homeowners throughout the country to refurbish theii iJtopertyi' This compares with $12.7 billion in the previous year. Why the increase? The answei is that many families who had been contemplating selling theii present dwellings and moving into newer homes found that they couldn’t do so. They were held in check by the tight money conditions, which made mortgages difficult to obtain, and by the high interest rates that made for very big mortgage payments. They decided, therefore, to do the next best thing-fix up their present places. Their biggest expenditure, in most cases,''Was for Additions, alterations and replacements. This accounted for 61 percent of the total. The other 39 percent was for maintenance, repairs and general upkeep, including painting, plumbing, roof re-shingling, electrical work, floor sanding and the like. To a greater extent than ever before, these jobs are being tackled by the owners themselves. This do-it-yourself trend was brought about by the high cost of labor and the scarcity of competent mechanics. As a result, much of the $265,000 spent in the year(.iiv Rappahannock County for home improvements went to local merchants selling paint, hardware, paneling, electrical supplies and such.

Are there other ill effects? J.L.S. Dear J. L. S.: Yes. An association exists between cigarette smoking and the prevalence of illness and higher death rates from peptic ulcer, especially gastric ulcer. Also, there has long been clinical evidence that cigarette smoking aggravates sinusitis conditions. Dear Doctor: Is it true that many children start smoking in elementary grades? Concerned Mother Dear Concerned Mother: There are few smokers before the age of 10 or 12. Fairly regular smoking begins to get a foothold by the 8th or 9th grade. At the present time, it is estimated that by the age of 18, 37.6 percent of the boys and 21.9 percent of the girls smoke on a fairly regular basis. Dear Doctor: Please tell me just how cigarette smoke harms the lungs. D.D.B. Dear D. D. B: Every puff of cigarette smoke contains billions of tiny unburned particles along with gases. When inhaled, 80 to 90 percent of the smoke remains in the body and a residue of tar builds up in the air tubes. Ordinarily, the mucus is swept up and out of the air tubes by tiny, rhythmically moving hairs called cilia. Cigarette smoke paralyzes this motion and eventually destroys the cilia. The mucus and tar slow down, stop and then clog the air tubes. All too often, the end result is chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Dear Doctor: Is there proof that cigarette smoking is really harmful to one’s health? D. R. L. Dear D. R. L.: Unfortunately, yes. The latest scientific facts show that cigarette smokers have substantially higher rates of death We Can Supply All Your [MIIIDIIK NEEDS CULPEPER BUILDING & SUPPLY CORP. Phone VA5-8383 Culpeper, Va. Can Us For Shengas Corp. Phone ME4-8666 Front Royal, F«. and disability than their nonsmoking counterparts. Dear Doctor: What can be done to reduce the death rate associated with cigarette smoking? Concerned Citizen. Dear Concerned Citizen: There must be a reduction in the number of persons now smoking. We must encourage young people not to start smoking, and we must work towards the development of a less hazardous cigarette. Dear Doctor: How much does the amount of nicotine and tar in a cigarette have to do with the dangers of smoking? L.H.P. Dear L. H. P.: So called “tar” is made up of chemical gases and minute particles. Naturally, the less nicotine and “tar” inhaled, the less will remain and irritate the bronchial tree and lungs. It’s better to use no nicotine and “tar”. Rappk. Under the Metric System New York, June 20—If the United States should switch to the metric system of weights and measures-using meters, liters and kilograms instead of yards, quarts and pounds-what would be some of the changes in Rappahannock County? The question is not just an academic one. Congress has authorized the Commerce Department to conduct a three-year study on the FOR SALE THE BEST COUNTRY HAM, COUNTRY SIDE MEAT, & COUNTRY SAUSAGE Tom’s Meat Market Culpeper, Va. 7-16-4k advisability of converting. Over 90 percent of the world population now utilizes the metric system. The United States is the only large country that does not. As a result, it is contended, our international trade is at a distinct disadvantage. The switchover would require many adjustments on the part of Rappahannock County residents. The local automobile driver would pull into a gas station and ask for 25 liters. That would be equivalent to 6.6 gallons. It would be good for 150 kilometers because he gets about 6 kilometers to the liter, otherwise known as 14 miles to the gallon. During the course of a year, he and the other 2,160 local car owners consume 2,720 liters, on average. Leaving the gas station he would pass a road sign reading 80 km. maximum, meaning that he may not drive faster than 48 miles per hour, old style. If he were to cover every part of the local area he would encompass some 692 square kilometers, since the land area is approximately 267 square miles, current scale.

(formerly 126 pounds) and is 1.68 meters tall (5 feet 6 inches). If she is like Miss America, her other measurements, in centimeters, are 93-58-91. The Rappahannock County housewife, when she goes to the market for supplies, would be buying 500 grams of butter,- a kilo of meat for hamburgers (2.2 pounds) and 4 meters (3.6 yards) of material for a dress. Those in favor of the change to the metric system argue that we cannot stand alone indefiniely in a world that has almost entirely gone metric. Opposing the changeover are those who point to the billions of dollars that it would cost industry to adjust to the metric system.
