Rappahannock News, February 17, 1972

Oliver Durant II, chairman of the Rappahannock Point-to-Point Races scheduled for Saturday, March 4, is seated on a partially constructed hurdle on the race course at Thornton Hill Farm. He chats with Mrs. Dorothy Kuncewicz, Miss Dale Evans and Alexander Kuncesicz, all seated, as Witold Kuncewicz and Clay (Skip) Brittle H discuss the course after a trial run. The races begin at noon on the course located on Route 522 south of Sperryville. Rappahannock race plans set THE RAPPAHANNOCK POINT-TOPOINT Races scheduled for Saturday, March 4, are under the direction of race committee chairman Oliver Durant 11 j! and will be run on Thornton Hill Farm, *' Sperryville, beginning at noon. As young as each year’s spring, Du4 rant is full of new and better ideas, and carries them out faster than it takes most people to contemplate a problem. New on the card will be a hurdle race, a mile and a half over ten jumps. The course is twice around the field-over five jumps, which are all in full view of spectators. Already installed is a new public address system and part of a new steeplechase course. A whole set of new flags for the race course has been made by the chairman’s charming wife Emily. Durant’s team this year on the race committee is composed ^of Mrs. C.W. Fannon, advertising; Mr.' Fannon, race secretary; Mrs. Witold Kuncewiez, publicity; Mrs. Frances Thornton, sponsor secretary; Newbill Miller, program sales; Mrs. James F. Massie, trophies; Mr. Massie^ parking; Phil Irwin, treasurer. The cooperation of Mr. Kuncewicz, Lee Payne and many others will assure the success of the event. EMPHASES ES PLACED on the new starting hour of noon for the card of eight races which includes popular hound drag race. W.H. Lyne*and Clifton Clark are in charge of the drag. 'M The race course is located on Route 522 a mile south of Sperryville on James W. Fletcher’s Thornton Hill Farm; he is Master of Rappahannock Hounds. □ Smith, Campbell held for murder ERNEST SMITH AND CHARLES CAMPBELL, both originally of Amissville, have been charged with the murder of John Swann Sutton of Arlington. The slaying took place during the early morning hours of September 22, 1970, in Amissville. Warrants were served Wednesday by State Police Investigator Thomas M. Galloway. The action was the result of a long and tireless investigation of nearly 17 months by Investigator Galloway and former Sheriff Charles K. Estes. Sutton, 27, was apparently slain by intruders as they burglarized the Lom-Bar-Dy Lunch Room, while he slept behind a nearby building. Sutton had received permission from Mrs. John Poe to sleep on the property in his sleeping bag after he failed to catch a ride to the highway. He was discovered by Mrs. Poe the following morning and an autopsy showed that death was the result of massive head wounds, any one of which would have been fatal. The lunch room, owned and operated by lrva M. Poe, was robbed and vandalized. A preliminary hearing for Smith and Campbell has been tentatively set for 10 a.m. March 1, in Rappahannock County Court at Washington, Va. Smith and Campbell are presently being held on felony charges in Fairfax County^ To play in Districts Panthers end most successful season THE Rappahannock Panthers closed their most successful season for several years with a win Friday night and a loss Tuesday. The team chalked up five victories this season under the direction of coach Carter Ellis, who guided the group through a difficult schedule. The local school is the smallest in the district. Coaching a team with a long losing streak — so long it was bordering on tradition — is a difficult job, at best. Coach Ellis took the job, turned the traditional tide, and laid the groundwork for a new tradition. The Panthers lost to Montevideo Tuesday and took a win Friday when they met the Elkton Elks. Prior to that they had won twice with Strasburg; and once each with Central, William Monroe and Elkton. SENIORS Ronnie Myers, Bill Kilby and Lawrence Turner are leaving the team this year to be re-g, placed by young players in JVs. They will have one more (See page 12) Joint Lenten programs set Beginning Thursday, February 24, and continuing each Thursday through March, the Rev. Ronald Wiley, the Rev.

It will conclude at 8 p.m. The film for February 24 is “The String Bean” and everyone is invited to come. □

SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 Youths speak JNEITHER THE PROBLEM nor the answer came as news to Rappahannock’s older generations, but having the youngsters themselves pinpoint the issue ought to serve ars an added spur to consideration of possible solutions. We refer to the survey report printed in this issue where a consensus of high school youths brought up the need for a youth center, some place where they could go and enjoy themselves apart from school activities. Hardly any family in Rappahannock has escaped the trend of recent years whereby a youngster grows up, finishes schooling *— and then moves away. Part of the reason is economic, and that’s another question. But we suspect that some part of the reason for going away is mixed up with youthful memories of “nothing to do.” IT’S FINE TO GO fishing and hunting, or exploring barns, when ygu’re under 12 — that magic age which Booth Tarkington wisely regarded as one of the pinnacles of a human lifetime. But when you’re older than marbles and kites, but not old enough for cars and other “grownup” diversions, what’s to do in a rural community like ours? Watch television? With its endless “re-runs” and even more banal “new” offerings? It would be interesting to see some leaders of the older generations, who so often deplore the moving-away trend of the younger generation, take the kids up on their youth center suggestion, give it some study, and see what happens. □ Turkey bag i& smaller Virginia’s fall turkey kill totaled 3,639 birds which was only slightly below the 4,253 bagged last year, reports Game Division Chief R.H. Cross. Last year’s total was only slightly off the 4,534 record fall kill of the year before. Almost all of the drop was in the Central Mountain counties of Alleghany, Augusta, Bath, Highland and Rockbridge, where the kill declined an average of 36 percent. Most Piedmont counties with gobblers only, hunting declined sharply but numerically the drop was not great. The 158 gobblers bagged in Southwest counties open to fall turkey hunting for the first time last season helped to offset losses elsewhere. In spite of a 37 percent drop, Bath/county was still the top turkey hunting countyHn the state with 436 of the big birds bagged there. Augusta ranked second with 293 birds checked while in Frederick the kill was up to 276 placing it third in the state. Samples from counties along the Shenandoah Valley and in the Roanoke area showed about 70 percent juveniles in their fall turkey kills indicating a good hatch. In the Central Mountain counties juveniles made up only 58 percent of the total, the second year in a row that reproduction has been low in this section.

Letters to the editor ’Unnecessary’ lines opposed Editor: Thank you for the lead story and editorial in last week’s Rappahannock News about the new powerline threat to our county by Virginia Electric Power Company. No one should be surprised that Vepco requested a “secret” meeting with members of the Board of Supervisors — the company calls it a “courtesy announcement” — and that’s all most counties in Virginia would get before trees fell to the bulldozers and towers rose to the heavens. 'Hie only government control over powerlines is at the county level through zoning ordinances. We should all be appreciative of the work done by enlightened citizens who prepared and sponsored zoning for Rappahannock. Thanks to zoning, Potomac Edison’s 138 kv line was stopped and thanks to zoning, Vepco’s 500 kv line can be stopped. But some people are still asking, “Why is RLEP trying to stop these powerlines that are so necessary?” The answer is that RLEP is not trying to stop necessary transmission lines, it is against the environmental and economic damage by unnecessary powerlines. RLEP showed Potomac Edison last year several alternatives which were less expensive, to the environment, company and consumer. RLEP will show Vepco similar alternatives if necessary, in court. It is very doubtful that Vepco #could ever justify the necessity for a third transmission line right-ofway through Rappahannock when two other corridors are alreadyestablished.between Mt. Storm and the North Anna area. To explain what is involved and answer ques* tions about this latest and - . biggest threat to Rappahannock County, RLEP offers a program to any in terested group.

T H E L I T T L E F' 0 X lyiMMn mm ir Students stress need for county youth center A RECENT survey of a random sample of the Rappahannock County High School student body reveals that students are primarily concerned about a lack of activities for young people in Rappahannock County. In their opinion — if not for themselves at least for younger students in coming years — there should Si Sez IN ECCLESIASTES 3:1 and 4 we find these words, “For everything there is an appointed time: there is a time to mourn and a time to dance.” The word everything would mean GOOD things and so-called bad things. Since the Bible was written about Oriental people it is assumed that their dances were Oriental dances. Does it necessarily follow that singing groups, while singing sacred songs, should go into physical contortions that titilate the erotic nature of the listeners; is it a GOOD thing? There was another group that sang “Peace in the Valley.” They stood there with shining eyes and blending voices that created divine harmonies that vibrated in my ears, filtered down into my heart and brought tears to my eyes. To me, that was a GOOD thing. Peace, where ever it is found, would be a GOOD thing, but I’ve never thought of heaven as being in a valley; rather in a place “high and lifted • up. ”1 recall asking my old black mammy, Ret, why the clouds were rimmed with gold. She answered; “Why chil’ that’s God’s heaven shinin’ through.” To my childish mind, and even now, that was a GOOD thing. — J.B.P. up campaign A countywide spring clean-up campaign, headed by lan Pryde of Washington as coordinator, is scheduled for early in April. This will take place prior to Garden Week in Virginia 'and will coincide with the annual clean-up crusade sponsored by the Town of Washington. The coordinator hopes that each individual and every club or organization will become involved, “for only in this manner can the campaign be successful.” An all-out combined effort of school and civic groups, fire companies, county officials, youth groups, ladies clubs, police officers; 100 percent participation will be sought. Kermit Weakley of Washington will be assistant to coordinator Pryde, and the Supervisor from each district will act as an area head in the campaign. Proper use of dumping facilities will be stressed and school students will be urged to take part in poster contests with a clean-up theme, in addition to taking an active physical part in the program. □ be something like a youth center as a focal point for youth activities. Space should be allowed for growth, in th e hope that in the future the center could expand to include facilities such as tennis courts, student bowling allies, and a swimming pool. Students believe that there is a definite, need for a wider variety of school clubs and athletic events for both boys and girls. Students were concerned and disturbed about the amount of trash and litter on county roads. THE SURVEY was made by local Extension Agents, Kay Webb and Rap Owings, with assistance from V.P.l. staff members and the full cooperation of High School Principal, Dennis Wingfield. Questions asked in individual interviews were: 1. We would like to hear some of the concerns that you have about your community, county and school. 2. How about telling us some names of teens who you feel are concerned about their community and whose good judgement you respect? 3. Along these same lines are there some adults of the community who you feel are concerned about the problems of youth and whose good judgement you respect? TWENTY-FOUR students, who were selected on a random numerical basis, were interviewed the first day. As a result of the answers to these questions 24 additional students were interviewed the following day. Results of the survey have been presented to the young people involved and to the adults whom they felt were most concerned. They are now in the process of seeing what they can do to solve problem areas that were revealed. □ 1 Do you really want your brother-in-law to know how much you earned last year? Of course not.

Average local income tax deductions compuiea How much did I contribute to charity during the past year? How much did 1 pay in local taxes? What did my medical and dental expenses amount to? These are some of the questions that Rappahan-5 nock Conty residents are asking themselves these vdays while getting together their 1971 income and expense figures for that upcoming confrontation with Uncle Sam. Local taxpayers who itemize such deductible expenditures on their oncome tax reports would like to know how their deductions compare with those taken generally by people with incomes similar to their own. Some guidance, in answer to these questions, comes from the Commerce Clearing House, an authority on business and tax law, using data compiled by the Internal Revenue Service. It has prepared a chart, based upon earlier tax reports, detailing just how much the average taxpayer in each income category has been deducting for contributions, interest, taxes and medical costs. It shows that among families throughout the country with incomes equal to the Rappahannock County average, approximately $1,380, equivalent to 22 pe: cent of gross income, is the normal deduction. Although local families with incomes that are higher than this average usually have a larger amount to deduct, it represents a smaller proportion of their earnings. For those in the $25,000 to $30,000 class, for example, deductions amount to $4,250 equivalent to about 15 percent of adjusted gross income whereas the $1,420 that can be deducted by those in the $6,000 to $7,000 category represents 22 percent. Of the $1,380 in deductions generally listed by families whose earnings are close to the Rappahannock County average, some $214 is for contributions to charity, $427 for interest paid on loans and instalment debt, $420 for state and local taxes and $319 for medical and dental costs. These are purely guideline figures, cautions the Commerce Clearing House. It is not to be assumed that such deductions would automatically be approved by the Internal Revenue Service. Proper records must be available to support all claims for deductions. □ Women's Club The Rappahannock Womens Club will meet Tuesday, February 22, at Mrs. Sharon Donahey’s home in * Amissville at 8 p.m. Anyone interested is welcome.

Now is time to sign uo for forestry oroiects Forester William C. Vernam of the Virginia Division of Forestry says now is the time to sign up for cost sharing assistance under the Fauquier County Rural Environmental Assistance Program for forestry projects to be carried out during 1972. Federal cost sharing assistance is available through the Fauquier County Rural Environmental Assistance Program under Practice A-7 “Forest Es Safety Sunday Sunday February 20 will be recognized in Virginia churches and across the nation as National Highway Safety Sunday, John T. Hanna, director of the Highway Safety Division of Virginia announced. ‘Driving carries a personal moral responsibility and religious leaders are setting aside this day to help encourage a sense of concern for all of us who use our highways —pedestrians, motorists, passengers, and ourselves as well,” Hanna said. More than 4,500 clergymen throughout the state have been asked to participated in Safety Sunday, the seventh annual event sponsored by the Division cooperation with theNa)i!tional Foundation for Highway Safety. Hanna said it is hoped that many churches wil make Safety Sunday a part of their sermons and church bulletins. “Sunday is one of the highest fatality days of the week, surpassed only by Saturday,” Hanna said. “Last year 248 persons lost their lives in Virginia in Sunday accidents alone. Already this year the Sunday toll on Virginia’s highways is 13.” Hanna said the two largest single causes of highway fatalities are the excessive speeder and. the “driving drunk.” Half of the fatalities in Virginia are attributed to drinking drivers and at least a third are caused by drivers exceeding the speed limit. □ Visits up Visits to the Shenandoah National Park totaled 61,900 last month as compared to 38,900 in January of last year, a 59.1 per cent increase.

Practice B-10 aids in r improving a stand of trees to better the species composition and improve the rate of growth by timber stand improvement work and pre-commercial thinning and the release of planted seedlings from competing vegetation so that they may develop rapidly into a desirable stand for a future timber crop. Cost sharing under Practice B-10 also provides for the stabilization of logging and skid roads by the construction of water bars, diversion ditches and the seeding of suitable grasses to “bed down” the roads and thus prevent soil and water erosion problems from developing. Forester Vernam stated that Fauquier County landowners interested in cost sharing assistance for forestry work should contact Mrs. Frances P. Gilbert, Office Manager at the ASCS office on Main Street in Warrenton. Detailed information on the Rural Environmental Assistance Program is available at the ASCS office, and landowners can sign up for practices for the 1972 program year. □ 1 4 DAYS ONLY!

The deck was taken up and the metal work cut with a torch so it would collapse with a little urging. The frame «of the structure rests in the river after it was collapsed Monday. At one time the bridge spanned the Hazel River in Culpeper County near Boston and was moved to this location about 1937. A plaque on the bridge reading 1907 intimated that was the date of the original construction. T 'vl Rudasill's Mill, once a thriving business establishment/ like many "old time" concerns, is slowly disintegrating and will soon collapse, like the nearby bridge which was taken down this week. Flour was milled from the local farmers wheat and their corn was ground into fine yellow and white cornmeal to sustain families and farmhands. The mill was even used for Sunday School classes, according to Ashby Butler of Woodville, who was reminiscing Tuesday while debris from the bridge was being cleared from the river. R.L. Rudasill was proprietor of the business and Mrs. Rudasill lives with her son-in-law and daughter Mr. and Mrs. J.M. O’Bannon.

MAIN STREET FRONT ROYAL, YA. (From page 1 opportunity to play this year when Rappahannock participates in the Skyline District Tournament scheduled for Monday at Handley High in Winchester. It has been three years since the Panthers put in an appearance at a tournament. Their eighth place finish in the ten-team district put them in the tournament for the district championship. Two of the Panther’s victories came in the last five games, with William Monroe and Elkton on the home court. Junior Bobby Smoot got his moment of glory by sinking the winning basket in the last seconds of the William Monroe game, making the score 57-55. IN THE Elkton game it was sophomore star Harry Jordan who showed the way with 23 points and 22 rebounds to his credit. Senior Bill Kilby had a last good round with Elkton when he racked a dozen points. Both team and coach share the credit for the successful season, along with many others; the Rev. Jerry Campbell acted as assistant coach for Ellis in addition to coaching an eighth grade unit. Dean Hahn has coached the JV team, some of whom will be seen in next season’s varsity opener. Julian Brown and Roger Anderson served as JV referees the entire season and Brown was a key figure in the Sa|urday basketball clinic. The fans must also not be forgotten or overlooked. They arrived for each game with abounding enthusiasm to cheer the formerly winless team. They traveled many miles and spent many dollars and the team responded with the most exciting games seen here in years. The cheerleaders trained, worked, made uniforms and urged the cagers to do their best after holding afternoon pep rallies, with tne Kt/tia siuuem uuuy juuiing in. Although the percentage of wins was not tremendously high, there is no doubt that the season was successful for everyone involved. There • is one snore chance to support the Panthers — Monday at Winchester in the district playoff! □ ASSOCIATION TO MEET The regular meeting of Rappahannock County Fire Association is scheduled for Friday^ February 18.

Chamber orchestra to play February 20 Adolf Scherbaum with his famous trumpet as he will appear as soloist with the Paul Kuentz Orchestra of Paris when it performs Sunday in Culpeper. This is the second attraction of the current season of the Culpeper Community Concert Association which has over a hundred members in Rappahannock. The Paul Kuentz Chamber Orchestra of Paris will appear Sunday, February 20 at 8 p.m. in the auditorium of Culpeper County High School. This is an ensemble of 15 male and female prizewinning instrumentalists. They have toured extensively in Europe, Canada, the United States, Mexico and South America under the direction of conductor Paul Kuentz. The instrumentation of the group consists of seven violins, two violas, two cellos, a double bass and either a piano or clavichord. To this basic unit may be added wind instruments to achieve the combinations desired for the presentations. This year the group is touring with a sporano soloist, Barbara Schlick, and an old friend from previous seasons, Adolph Scherbaum, the renowned trumpet soloist. The programs will be given a new twist with selections including either a Bach Cantata for soprano and trumpet, or a Scarlatti Cantata for soprano and trumpet. Concertos for violin and cello, as well as old standbys such as Vivaldi’s “Four Seasons,’’ will be included in the program. The group recently completed a tour of Spain and four concerts in Paris, the latter having featured the Measurement service available Farmers may request farm measurement service at the Rappahannock County ASCS Office when they come in to sign up in the feed grain or wheat setaside programs, says T.R. Taylor, Chairman of the County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee. The ASCS measurement service is available at a nominal fee and offers farmers a convenient and economical way to make sure their acreages are in compliance with the farm programs they have signed up for. Producers may request acreage measurement for any farm program purpose, but most of the requests come from farmers who want to be certain their acreages comply with program regulations under the feed grain and wheat programs. Each producer determines which acreages will mines which acreages he will need measured. Sometimes , feed grain and wheat program participants want ATTENTION! The following is quoted from the Rappahannock County Zoning Ordinance: "BUILDING PERMITS" - No building or structure which costs five hundred dollars ($500.00) or more shall be located, constructed, reconstructed, altered, or enlarged without first having obtained a Building Permit from the administrator." The Zoning Administrator's office, located in the Court House, is open each Tuesday from 8:30 to 4:30. Tel. 675-3342. c-24 their acreage measured to make certain they have planted enough crops to maintain their base or allotment history. Many participants in the set-aside programs feed measurement is especially valuable in order to be guaranteed compliance with set-aside acreage requirements. When a farmer goes by measurement service from his County ASCS office, he is guaranteed he has met the setaside acreage requirements of the farm programs he has signed up for. Sign-up in the 1972 setaside programs in scheduled February 3 through March 10. Participating farmers will certify at a later date to the set-aside acreage on their farms and list the acreage planted to program crops. On-farm spot checks will be made at random on farms in the county. Errors in farmer certification can result in reductio n or loss of set-aside payments. □ same group and soloists the Community Concerts as are appearing here for in Culpeper. □ (Ettcsi ^lateral |farlars H.C.

200 bills introduced on legislative deadline By DEL. D. FRENCH SLAUGHTER, JR. MORE THAN 200 bills were introduced in the House of Delegates on Monday, which was the last day for the introduction of bills in the 1972 session. The bills now introduced cover almost every conceivable subject, including bills to abolish or put the blue law on a local option basis, to require able-bodied welfare recipients to accept jobs that might be offered them, to reduce from 21 to 18 the adult agt for contracts, wiils, deeds, alcoholic beverages, jury services, etc., protection of the wetlands (marsh areas) in the coastal areas, to require the public schools to give instruction in free enterprise, to increase the penalties for the commission of crimes involving dangerous weapons, and many others. Under the proposed budget, welfare expenditures are to increase 70% over the preceding two years, not including the increases allowed for the state assumption _of most of the local share of welfare payments. Welfare costs have increased several-fold over the past six years, and it is obvious that some means of limiting the increases must be found. I AH supporting a bill which provides that welfare recipients who are able to work must accept reasonable employment offers and a bill which will have.the effect of requiring fathers of children born during common law relationships to support them as the law now requires fathers to support children of legitimate marriages. A substantial reduction in the proposed welfare increases in the budget will be necessary if we are to make any beginning on the control of these costs. The Department of Welfare and Institutions has said that it can apportion any reductions in its budget, and this would be a desirable way to handle the reduction so that those persons who need help and are unable to help themselves can be provided for. In discussing the budget, you will frequently see references to “cutting the budget” but actually what is being discussed is a cut in the proposed increase for particular agencies. Nearly all agencies are consistently granted appropriation increases over the preceding budget period, and 1 am sure that this will be the case in this session. Many increases are justified and needed, such as in education, including community colleges, and mental health and hospit 75th birthday marked HENRY B.

Eye donor cards VIRGINIA CITIZENS who have pledged donation of their eyes, on death, to the Old Dominion Eye Bank for use in sight-restoring corneal transplant operations are asked to carry their eye donor pledge cards with them at all times. R. Kenneth Hudgins, executive director of the eye bank, said that the ultimate success of this sightrestoring program is entirely dependent upon the eye bank’s being notified immediately in the event of the death of a donor. In such cases, he said, “time is a .critical factor, because the eye tissue must be removed within six hours after death if it is to be effectively used in a corneal transplant operation.” When an eye donor suffers an accidental death, Hudgins said, police officers and medical personnel characteristically check a wallet or pocketbook for identification. If the donor card is attached to such identification, he added, the police and medical aides recognize that immediate action is necessary.

New farmer-owned livestock market is nlanned A GROUP of area farmers and businessmen who are planning a farmerowned livestock market have scheduled a public meeting for Friday, February 18, at 7:30 p.m. at the Virginia Gentleman Restaurant in Front Royal. Detailed information regarding the inception of a producer-owned market in the Front Royal area will be presented. Facts pertaining to the location, type of structure, method of operation and financing will be disclosed. Details regarding the sale of stock to interested farmer-producers will also be discussed. As planned, the new market will be owned and controlled by a large group of stockholders. “The aim is to have as wide a distribution of holdings among the farmers who buy and sell through the market — and consequently have a personal stake in the business — as possible,” said a member of the Steering Committee, V.L. Kemp. It is contemplated that no one individual or small group will be permitted to control the corporation, but rather that several hundred stockholders would exercise control through a board of directors and a professional manager. The stock will be priced in such a way that no one can become an owner in the stockhundred dollars.” A GROUP of 35 farmers and businessmen in the area initiated an investigation into all aspects of such an enterprise. Committee members were encouraged by the success of similar markets “whereby economical service responsive to the farmer-producer needs is of primary importance and the requirement for financial gain is of much lesser importance.” It is emphasized, however, that the corporation would strive to return a reasonable return to investors and offer the prospect of growth to the value of the original stock, Kemp said. yard for as as a Applesauce is purchased The U.S. Consumer and Marketing Service has purchased 61,050 cases of ap' plesauce from two Virginia firms for use in child nutrition programs. Officials of this U. S. Department of Agriculture agency said 31,450 cases were bought from Shenandoah Apple Co-op, Inc., of Winchester, and 29,600 cases were purchased from Bowman Apple Products Co., Inc., of Mt. Jackson. This was part of a total purchase of over 464,350 cases of U.S. Grade A canned applesauce bought at a cost of over $2.01 million nffiniolc oHHoH Farmers from Warren, Page, Rappahannock, Fauquier, Frederick, Clarke and Shenandoah counties are serving on the steering committee and report widespread interest among farmers for such a market in the area. “There has been a feeling by many farmers that an earlier public meeting having to do with a new Front Royal market was somewhat confusing and led to premature decisions. Others could not attend or felt that there were not enough facts available at the time to make a choice between a privately held market with limited ownership or one such as is now being presented with a broad farmer-ownership,” he added. KEMP, a resident of Shenandoah County, said talk of the new market was begun when the old stock market in Front Royal burned down last fall. That market was privately owned, however, and the feeling now is that a market which is “farmer-owned,” such as the ones in Marshall and Winchester, would be most desirable. In addition to Kemp, members of the steering committee are Ted Resting of Fauquier County; H. K. Barksdale of Rappahannock; William Sudwick of Page, P. T. Mclntire of Clarke, Buddy Artrip of Frederick, and from Warren, Ray Rudacille, Howard Duncan, Grayson Cullers, Elton W. Mathews and J.S.

Virginia deer disease harmless to livestock More than a normal number of white tailed deer in Eastern Virginia died during the last half of 1971. And wildlife experts are not yet certain of the cause. A possible cause, Epizootic hemorrhagic disease, received some newspaper coverage and has resulted in concern by farmers over whether the disease can be transmitted to 5their livestock. “Epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD) may or may not have caused the aboveaverage loss. But the presence of the virus disease in Virginia has not been confirmed,” declared Dr. G. A. Maclnnis, a Virginia Tech Extension veterinarian and a professor of veterinary science. He emphasized, “EHDis a deer disease. It does not affect domestic animals. “EHD is primarily a disease of white tailed deer. It has also been found in mule, deer and pronghorned antelopes. It may have existed in North America for the past 80 years. But, it was first studied in 1955 when R. E. Shope investigated an outbreak in New Jersey. He theorized it was caused by a virus and gave the disease its name. “Since then, it has been found in North and South Dakota, Wyoming and in the Canadian province of Alberta. Suspected, but unconfirmed, outbreaks have occurred in Tennessee, North Carolina and Virginia,” Maclnnis related. Theater apprentices In a recent mailing to high schools and colleges on the East Coast, Wayside Theatre announced that resumes and applications are being accepted for the 1972 apprentice program. Apprentices work with technical staff members in mounting each show during the 13-week summer sea son. Because Wayside is a small professional theater and only a limited number of apprentices are accepted Any person who is interested in the 1972 Summer apprentice program at Wayside can obtain information and application forms by contacting Madeline MacNeil at the theater in Middletown. □ LIBRARY LINES An Afternoon Walk by Dorothy Eden: “On a leisurely afternoon walk one summer day Ella and her 5-year-old daughter come upon an abandoned house with an eerie overgrown garden, which conjures up fantasies of grand parties and bygone fashions. Butin the midst of their reverie they hear a horrible throaty scream, and from a second story window, see the spreading white wings of an owl taking flight. Later Ella describes the experience to her husband, only to be reminded that, having recently lost a child at birth, she is still emotionally unstable-Then she begins receiving a series of anonymous phone calls. Trapped between the cold neglect of her husband, who openly questions her sanity, and the increasing terror of the calls, which hint that her child is in danger, Ella herself comes to question her own sanity-” The Peterkin Papers by Lucretia P. Hale: “The hilarious adventures of the impractical Peterkin family — There are Mr. and Mrs. Peterkin, a lovable muddle-headed couple, and their children — Solomon John, Agamemnon, Elizabeth Eliza, and the three little boys in India rubber boots.. .When life presents problems that the Peterkins cannot solve, they consult ‘the lady from Philadelphia’. . .What happens to the Peterkins when they celebrate the Fourth of July, get snowed in, give a party, take a vacation, will bring laughter to every child who reads this unforgettable classic.” □ « SHOOTING MATCH 12-16-20 Gages Fliat Hill Caraival Grovads Saturday Afternoons February 19 until further notice 2:00 p.m. till dark Benefit: Flint Hill Volunteer Fire Co. Not Responsible for Accidents Dr. Maclnnis reports there is belief that the causative agent of EHD is a virus that is spread from deer to deer by biting insects. Another theory is that rodents serve as reservoirs of the virus while insects spread it to the deer. Experimentally, and probably in nature as well, the disease cannot be transferred by feeding infected materials. The procedure develops a high level of immunity to EHD. That could indicate an oral vaccine could become a fact. According to Maclnnis, EHD is a late summer and early fall disease. Losses stop with the first killing frost, probably because insect activity slows down. Symptoms of EHD appear a week after the virus has been innoculated into susceptible animals. The first signs are loss of appetite, depression and a growing weakness. The victims lose their fear of man, drool, and find it hard to breath. Close examination shows a rapid pulse, a black, swollen tongue and blood-shot eyes. There may be blood in the saliva, urine and feces. Apparent blindness, coma and death occur anywhere from eight to 36 hours after the first symptoms. Post mortems may re veal hemorrhages in one or more vital organs — heart, liver, spleen, kidney, lungs and digestive tracts. Concluded Dr. Maclnnis, ‘‘Should a deer be found with those symptoms, especially during late summer and early fall, Epizootic hemorrhagic disease can be suspected.” □ I I Charles E.

Mending is most often done by hand. Small mending jobs essential to neatness should be done without question. They may include repairing loose or ripped off buttons, snaps, hooks, eyes,.hems or linings or hanging undone; open seams. There is no point in laboring over an article that can be cheaply replaced. However, a good garment that you are fond of, can have a second life if repaired. 1. If you have dangling threads bring them to the inside of the garment and tie. 2. Give double life and improve the looks of machiriemade buttonholes by going over them with a hand- buttonhole stitch or a zigzag machine stitch. 3. Overcast any loose or fraying fabric edges that might catch in a zipper. Reinforce sleeve and crotch seams with a second line of machine-stitching on top, (toward raw edge) of the existing stitching. 5. Use imaginative mending of torn places by placing a decoration over the damaged spot. Braid can be useful for worn sleeve or neckline areas. 6. Repair knits by reweaving the yarn. Information on making more extensive repairs is available from the Extension Office. Look at your garments before throwing them away and determine if a simple little repair will give the article a second life. Remember to sign up for the Sewing With Knits Class, if you are interested. □ GET SET FOR.., POWER-UP * WITH AN ALL SEASON CUB CADET* % TRACTOR WINTER CLEAN-UP!
