VTMA Volume XXII. Number 45 a* v> SfATE LIBRARY WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1971 Single Copy * 10c The Amissville Pee Wee Baseball team won the Fauquier Little League Championship. The team is sponsored by Amissville Ruritan Club. They won eleven games in league play and ropped only two which placed them as Northern Division Champs. The team met Calverton in the championship play off and took the title with a 2-1 win. Players are left to right, front row: Curt Sisk, Perry Breeden, Terry Breeden, Jeff Martin, Kenny Frazier and C. G. Lawrence; standing, Hodge Miller, Wilbur Glascock, Mike Tupper, Cecil Smoot, Barry Adkins, and Mike Smoot. Kee Wee Baseball Team Feted With Banquet Friday me inernoers or me Amissvuie Pee Wee baseball team, champions of the Fauquier County Pee Wee League, were honored with a Banquet Friday night given by ’ team manager, Robert B. Settle and Mrs. Settle. A word of welcome from Mr. Settle followed by the group singing “America” opend the program and the invocation was delivered by the Rev. Joseph Stirman, pastor of Amissville Baptist Church. Mrs. Settle introduced guests and the speaker, Walter Masterson. Mr. Masterson, a veteran of 15 years in professional baseball, impressed upon the players that they had excelled as individuals, but it also took excellence as a group to win. He said that it took physical training to form a team but it took mental training and alertness to always make the right decision, execute the proper play and this applies to whatever one undertakes in life. L. J. Davis a professional photographer, showed moving films of the team’s activities including training events as well as some actual play. The boys en R.C.H.S. Cross Country Team Wins First Meet cicf o KlicKn/i country team at Rappahannock County High School scored a convincing victory in its first competition. The Panther team defeated the Warren County runners by a score of 21-34 on the up and down hill, rain dampened Warren County course Saturday, September 18. In cross-country, the lower score wins. Charles Thomas finished first over the 2.5 mile course with a time of 13.06 while Bill Taylor was in second place timed at 14.11 followed by John Summers with a 14.34. Rappahannock’s two front runners on their initial outing broke the old course record which was 14.13. Rappahannock’s three top runners turned in a fine per tormance and the record made by Charles Thomas prompted the Warren coach Bill Wood to say, “That record should stand for quite a while.” Credit for the introduction of the sport and the organization and training goes to Mr. Toth, science teacher at R.C.H.S., and a former track enthusiast at Pensacola Junior College, Fla. Coach Toth polled the students last spring to find if there was sufficient interest to organize. The result was a team of potential runners who began practice immediately then continued through the summer to become Rappahannock’s first cross-country team. Sperryville’s Old Hollow section has produced the nucleus of the new team for Charles Thomas and Bill and Tom Taylor live only a half mile apart. These boys, with others, answered Coach Toth’s call for students interested in running cross-country events and initial efforts showed potential. They formed an informal but effective private training group which produced solid results. Old Hollow offered a near perfect training track as it crosses Piney Runandswingsback to form a five and a half mile loop of hills, curves and slopes. These three young men ran the circle daily, early in the mornings or in the cooi of the evenings. They have continued every day since last spring, except days on which they participated in (Continued on page 6) Rappahannock County High School Cross Country team excelled in competition during a meet held Saturday with Warren County High School in Front Royal. The three top runners were from R.C.H.S. and were Charles Thomas, Bill Taylor and John Summers.

' Hodge Miller presented Mt. Settle a baseball autographed by • each member of the team and ‘ expressed the appreciation of the ■ group for the time, effort and ! patience expended in the 1 management, training, tran- 1 sportation and all which is ! necessary during a season. J A committee named by the " manager, had selected the Outstanding Ball Player of the group. ‘ Mike Smoot received this citation. 5 Mike had done an outstanding job ' as pitcher and did equally as well hitting. Only two games were lost during the season compared with 12 wins, including the cham- ! pionship game with Calverton j with a final 2-1 score. 1 Newbill Miller of Washington who had assisted Mr. Settle with the coaching made a few remarks concerning their ability, accomplishments and attitudes. I He impressed upon the boys that ! winning was the result of doing I their very best and this should ’ extend to all things, not be limited to baseball. He said that Mr. Settle and Mr. Masterman had worked with the team for the good of the l boys, not for any personal gain or | recognition. They didn’t “kill the umpire” for he, Junior Martin, joined the players for dinner as well as Amissville Ruritan Club president and member, Edward Lawrence j and Ralph Rowzie, respectively, j I ( Fire and Rescue ( ( Squad Notes ( Rappahannock Rescue Squad took Mase Settle of Laurel Mills to Culpeper Memorial Hospital Friday, September 17.

Injuries Light In Series of Wrecks Several traffic crashes have occurred the past week on Rappahannock roads. A single car crash occurred Saturday at 5:30 a.m. on Route 601. Benjamin Franklin Gordon of Etlan operating a 1949 Chevrolet pickup, ran out of the road and struck a tree. He sustained lacerations of the head and lip and was charged with reckless driving, according to Trooper J. B. Willis who investigated. A motorcyclist sustained injuries in a crash Friday on Route 211 a mile south of Sperryville. Joseph J. La porta of Williamstown, N. J. received lacerations to his chin and dislodged several teeth when he ran off the road, struck a rock and catapulted 67 feet, according to a report filed by Trooper K. L. Miller. La porta was operating a 1971 Suzuki motorcycle which sustained damages estimated at $200. Two vehicles were involved in a (Continued on Page 2) "IWT > if.*' ill m w m Family Evacuated Home During Flash Flood Which Damaged Roads A deluge of rain which fell on the mountain top in Shenandoah National Park Sunday night, coursed down the slopes, saturated the earth and inundated the lower regions. The North Fork of the Thornton River overflowed its banks in many places and the rapidly rolling waters washed out portions of roads and bridges. Culverts and pipes were blocked and debris knocked down fences and cluttered bridges as it surged along the stream’s course. One family found it necessary to evacuate their home and another lost some animals to the forceful currents. John Allen Atkins, who lives in Old Hollow, watched television until about eleven o’clock Sunday night and then went to bed. He was awakened by his wife an hour later who declared she heard rushing water. Mr. Atkins thought Workshop For N. Va. Teachers Teachers from eight Northern Virginia counties will meet on Saturday, September 25,1971 for a three and a half hour workshop at Fauquier County High School. Over five hundred teachers and administrators are expected from Prince William, Loudoun, Fauquier, Culpeper, Rappahannock, Warren, Frederick, and Clarke counties. Gene Minnick, a teacher at Broad Run High School in Loudoun County and President of District N, Virginia Education Association, stated that Don Rapier, President of the 50,000member Virginia Education Association would be a speaker at the general meeting, as well as Dale Robinson of the National Education Association. The theme of the meeting will be “For All Children - Excellence in Instruction.” In keeping with the theme, teachers will meet in small groups to discuss their individual areas of instruction. it was the wind, but their investigation disclosed the swirling waters of the Thornton almost up to the doorstep. The river is directly behind the house and an old roadbed in front of the residence also channeled the seething waters down stream. Portions of the yard fence had been dislodged and all exits were covered with water. To effect a rescue, the Atkins family was joined by neighbors Mr. and Mrs. Lee Fincham, Paul Robinson and Bobby Fincham. Mr. Atkins tied a rope to his automobile which could not navigate the currents but acted as an anchor. The other end was tossed to the neighbors who held it taut while Mr. Atkins with his 6year-old daughter on his back inched his way to higher ground and safety. He went back and assisted his wife across the Sen. Aldhizer Announces Campaign Co-Chairman Senator George S. Aldhizer, II, ruesday announced that Ralph J. Davis of Madison has been appointed co-chairman of his campaign for re-election in the 26th State Senatorial District. Mr. Davis, formerly of Luray, is vicepresident of the National Bank and Trust Co. with offices in Charlottesville. Mr. Davis, twice a candidate for the House of Delegates while a resident of Page County said “I am pleased to have the opportunity to serve as Sen. George Aldhizer’s campaign’s cochairman. I have always had a great interest in the people of my state and this is another opportunity to serve Virginia. Sen. Aldhizer is well qualified, his seniority and experience best qualify him to serve our District in the State Senate. Virginia can best be served by us all working for George Aldhizer.” Sen. Aldhizer said Mr. Davis teeming water with the aid of the rope to which they clung and returned to the house once more for his dogs. He took a gunny sack, put the dogs in it, tied it to his waist and in this manner carried the three small animals to safety. Water did not quite reach the Atkins house but they spent the night with neighbors though Mr. Atkins said “we did not do much sleeping ” Lee Fincham had several sows with large litters of piglets, about 20 of which were washed away in the flood and others died later. The fill of the bridge at the head of the hollow was washed out and repair was impossible for the rushing water still prevented replacement of the fill late Monday evening. School busses were unable to make the regular round trip and had to go up and back each hollow. would direct his campaign during the absence of Dr. G. Tyler Miller, retired president of Madison College, who now is visiting relatives in Europe. Upon Dr. Miller’s return the campaign’s direction will be shared by the two. He added “It is particularly gratifying for my campaign to have the active leadership of two outstanding citizens, one a distinguished educator and the other a successful business leader.” Senator Aldhizer said "Their support and the support of many other citizens from whom I am hearing daily means much to me as I attempt to continue my efforts for effective representation of the people of our District. Changing economics and political patterns throughout the Commonwealth require as never before, experience and seniority in Richmond. I intend to use my experience and seniority for the best interests of all the people of our District.” A flash flood from a deluge of rain dumped on top of the mountain west of Sperryville Sunday night washed out roads and this bridge fill in Old Hollow. The swift water prevented the repair of the bridge until Tuesday. Bradley Dodsoil, a employee of the Highway Department, attempts to loosen debris which clogged the passages beneath the bridge.

2 THE RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS, Washington, Va. Thursday, September 23, 1971 RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Va. Telephone: WASHINGTON 673-3349 MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as 2nd Clafcs Mall at the P. O. at Washington, Va. Subscriptions (in advance) $3.00 in Rappahannock and adjacent counties: $3.50 East coast; $4.00 mid-west; $4.50 West. LETTERS to EDITOR L ^ Dear Editor: I would greatly appreciate it if you will allow me to make a public explanation of an issue that is greatly misunderstood by many people in Rappahannock. I, and most of the other jitizens of Sperryville opposed a sewer system that was planned for us by the Water Control Board, and we resisted vigorously through most of 1969 and part of 1970. Unfortunately, now we are being misjudged for having been AGAINST cleaning up our river. Nothing could be farther from the truth! Let me explain. It was the cost of the proposed system that we objected to. Practically everyone wanted then and still wants a solution to our problem, but no village of less than 100 families wants to assume a debt of $164,000 to start with and pay $600 to $800 to connect and $72.00 or more a year for sewage when they don’t even have adequate water. No family who has built a new home and put in an expensive septic system from $600 to $10,000 wants to have it condemned and have to pay the same connection fees and monthly rates as those who have been polluting the river for a generation or more. Let me ask you, Reader, If you have a septic tank and drain field laid out by the Health Department officer, do you want to be FORCED to connect to a questionable system? Wouldn’t you want to know the true picture? That’s the attitude I took as well as most of the people with approved septic tank systems. We said if septic systems are to be condemned in Sperryville so should outdoor privies be condemned, but there was no plan to do that, but those people were to be given Government loans to build on an addition to their house so they could put in a bath and get water to operate that bath from-God knows where! w?aiso saw itim’t mmS* that only in Sperryville are septic systems unsafe. But we were told that Sperryville soil is different from the soil in the rest of the County and failed in percolation tests. We asked for evidence of such tests. We asked why the Health officer was still approving yet additional septic systems in Sperryville if indeed the soil was not suitable. No answer. In fact when we asked for some statistics on systems approved within the last ten years, we were refused that information. We asked for findings throughout the County on how many sewer I systems go directly into the river, but we were told that no such survey had been made. Again, we insisted that Sperryville wants clean water, but how, and why not include the entire County in projects to clean up water pollution? The STRANGEST THING--nobody outside of Sperryville wanted the water Control Board to make similar plans for them! Even today, after two years of ! repeated statements by the Water Control Board that Sperryville soil is not suitable, the Health Department officer is still issuing permits for more houses and more septic systems to be put in Sperryville. Two years ago I was told my system would be declared unsafe though it is in the middle of a 2-acre plot of land, but today a new system only !& acre of land has been approved right next to my fence! When were they being perfectly honest about the pollution danger-two years ago-or NOW? It has seemed to me all along that this problem must be attacked without bias, without respect to person, on a purely scientific basis after extensive laboratory and field study and that the two Departments, the Health Department and the Water Control Board must agree on what is and what is not polluting the water and the soil, that present laws and regulations must be enforced and whatever new ones are needed must be made to apply ; to the entire County. I repeat, I’m 100 percent FOR clean water, but not at the private expense of the 24 widows and other I people already on Social Security whose incomes are minimal nor atj the expense of conscientious i people who put in septic systems, i We hoped then, and we still hope I that some Government assistance ' will be forthcoming and that some 1 engineer will come up with a plan ; that doesn’t cost Vi million dollars. 1 For the few people it would serve, that cost estimate was absolutely ABSURD. So we resisted. I believe &- many of the critics of SperryviUe’s action tried looking at our problem subjectively, putting the “shoe on their own foot” so to speak, they would be more sympathetic. It would be my hope that all citizens of the County who are truly concerned with protecting our environment and with making Rappahannock a clean, safe and naturally beautiful place to live would become more familiar with the complexities of Sperryville’s sewer problem and assist rather than condemn.

BOOKS Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, by Dee Brown - is a documented account of the systematic plunder of the American Indians during the second half of the nineteenth century, battle by battle, massacre by massacre, broken treaty by broken treaty. Here for the first time is their side of the story . . . with a straight-forward, eloquent, and epic style Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee presents a unique and disturbing history of the American West from the Indian point of view. The 26 Letters, by Oscar Ogg - This is the story of the alphabet and of the many forms of letters - the Roman incised capitals, the Square Capitals, the Rustic Capitals, and the exquisite Caroline letters which were the forerunner of all modern smallletter alphabets. Mr. Ogg makes it very clear that letters are a form of art that is a priceless heritage. He has enlivened his history with thumbnail stories; the discovery of the Altamira wall paintings; the strange letter to Darius; the finding of the Rosetta stone; the competition of Saint Columba and Saint Finnian. He tells how type is made and how a printing press works. In short he covers the whole alphabet story from the beginning to today. God Is an Englishman, by R. F.

According to Trooper W. A. Bun tin, a 1964 Chevrolet coupe operated by Donald Ray Mills of Castleton and a 1964 four door sedan operated by David Robson Compton of Rixeyville collided. Both vehicles were traveling south when Mills made a left turn and Compton apparently tried to pass. Compton struck Mills in the left side and the car turned over the shoulder of the road. There were no injuries. Estimated damage to the autos stood at $800 or a total loss to the Mills car and at $400 to the Compton car. Compton was cited for reckless driving. Two vehicles collided on Rt. 211 east of Amissville in Culpeper County Friday afternoon. Ashby Turner Grimsley of Huntly operating a 1969 Ford pickup struck the side of a GMC pickup operated by Jasper Yowell jr. as Yowell entered Route 211 from Route 621. The Grimsley truck ran. off the road and over turned and damage to it was estimated at $900 according to investigating officer Trooper W. C. Echard. The Yowell truck was damaged in the amount of $500 and he was charged with failing to yield the right of way. The drivers of the vehicles were not injured but Franklin Lee Whorton of Amissville sustained a laceration of the arm and was treated at Fauquier Hospital.

After having done my good deed for the day, I decided to walk back home. I was almost sorry I did; driving you are conscious of the litter, walking you are so much more aware. I still think that a good name for our road would be Byerkanrode, that is pronounced ‘beer can road.’ If you think that a misnomer, drive up this way some time. Better still, walk. The autumnal equinox occurs at 11:45 the morning of the 23rd, the sun crosses the equator, heading south for the winter. Let us hop e he comes back next spring. I read this in one of n.iy magazines. “Spring is a time of renaissance, summer a time of activity, autumn a time of rest; and winter a time of sleep. F iach has its own phenomena an d its own biology, but none is of more interest than the wonderful biology and alchemy of fall.’ ’ I like that. Autumn a time of gathering the harvest; then rest, wdnter a time of sleeping and renev /al, then spring a time of re-awak ening; a new birth. There is a divine PO1 ,VER that creates the changing s easons. In Carruth’s poem he reco gnizes only one, autumn. A haze on the far horizon, An infinite, tender sky, The ripe, rich tint' i of the cornfields, And the wild gees ,e sailing high , And all over upla .nd and lowland The charm of tl ie goldenrodSome of us caUi it Autumn, And others cal .1 it GOD.

It is the outcome of hard work and perseverance; determination to do the best th;at you can do. It paid off. Results of the contest are: 1. Charles Thomas (Rapp.), time 13 :06 2.

C.), time 19:22 The team is coached by John Toth whose assistant and timekeeper is John Paul Dodson. Other Rappahannock runners who did not attend the meet are Harry Jordan, Bobby Titchenell and Murphy Reid. But the Hollow hasn’t finished yet. Lonnie Clatterbuck, only an eighth grader, surprised many older runners at the meet, and Jerry Thomas, a brother to Charles, who is only a seventh grader has been running the Hollow, training two years before he can compete officially. Barry Adkins, another eighth grader, came in with a 19.19. Cross country is a varsity sport, so their efforts were unofficial, however, it reflects the great qualities of these young men who train and compete in this grueling sport for no credit. It is evident that their efforts will be rewarded in future years. It takes a quiet kind of determination and courage to train and compete in this sport. Only the individual can supply the will and strength for to falter may bring down an entire team. The Panther team will travel to Montevideo on October 6 to compete with the Maroons and on October 9 they will go to Stonewall for a contest. Two meets, with dates to be announced later, are scheduled to be run at the local high school. The county can be proud of this new addition to the school’s athletic program. Cross-country is a sport requiring a minimum of equipment and expense, but demanding a maximum of personal effort. It is hoped that the public will attend meets when possible and give the young man the recognition and support which they deserve. Vaccinate Animal Horse owners of Rappahannock County should be congratulated on their fine cooperation in the VEE Program which will be continued through Oct. 6. If you haven’t notified the county Extension Office (675-3619) of the number of horses, ponies and mules, please do so at once so the Veterinarian can include them in his farm visit schedule. The program is sponsored by the Federal and State Government and there is no charge for the vaccination at this time.
