Rappahannock News, March 16, 1972

Pepco backs off Riverton-Boston line dropped, Vepco agreement cited POTOMAC EDISON Company has formally withdrawn its application for a special use permit for a proposed 138,000 volt powerline that would have extended from Riverton to Boston. In announcing withdrawal of the application, a Pepco news release said the action was possible because of “an agreement with Virginia Electric and Power Company eliminating the need for construction” of the 138 kv line — a proposal which stirred up a great deal of agitation in the county and which, among other things, spurred formation of the militant organization, the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection (RLEP). The president of RLEP, Philip Irwin of Flint Hill, saw Potomac Edison’s abandonment of the Riverton to Boston proposal as “inevitable.” He added: “They knew they never had a case that could stand up to ours. We consider it proof that the 138 kv line was not as necessary as the company contended. Their action points up the possibility that landowners can have something to say about the future of their environment. Citizens who will stick together can influence their future.” Irwin continued: “We proved that the line was not necessary, and, in fact, a better way did exist. RLEP had to show a better way of meeting their future requirements, and we suggested that they buy power from Vepco. “As far as Vepco is concerned, it does not change our contention that a third transmission line is necessary, when an existing, reliable corridor is available. Vepco maintains that they do consider the environment, and one of their environmental priorities that they do follow existing corridors when available.” THE NEWS release from Grand Jury indicts 2 ERNEST MOFFETT SMITH AND CHARLES CAMPBELL were indicted by a grand jury Monday after a preliminary hearing which lasted two days on one count of murder each, one count each of breaking and entering and two charges of robbery, each. The charges were lodged recently against Smith and Campbell following a 17-month investigation of the slaying of John Swan Sutton of Arlington, who was discovered beaten to death at the Lom-Bar-Dy Lunch Room in Amissville in September of 1970. The lunchroom was also entered and burglarized and the person of Sutton was robbed. The five-man grand jury returned a true bill and arraignment is scheduled for May 8 in Rappahannock County Circuit Court. Court-appointed counsel will represent both Smith and Campbell. A preliminary hearing took place Thursday and continued through Friday until late afternoon, at which time the court recognized the evidence as constituting a prima facie case and sent it to the grand jury. ' LEE PAYNE OF WOODVILLE was foreman of the grand jury, which was composed of G. Brown Miller of Sperryville, Frank Huff of Flint Hill, Gilbert Cosden of Sperry ville, and Edward Bailey of Washington. Judge W.F. Moffett Jr., on the bench for the preliminary hearing, sent all of the cases to the grand jury held Monday. □ Pepco said it was possible for the company to withdraw its Riverton-Boston application because of “an agreement which has been reached and signed by officials of The Potomac Edison Company of Virginia and Virginia Electric and Power Company providing for a primary source of power for the affected Po- p tomac Edison load area ' via the nearby Vepco bulk (See page 14) In the spring the fancy of these young men turns to track.

Stranger starts fires AN UNIDENTIFIED WHITE MAN apparently set fire to several table cloths, a chair and cardboard box Friday evening in the dining room of Hampton Inn, located on Route 211 west of Washington. The man, unfamiliar in this area, was served in the front of the restaurant where the bar and booths are located. Before he left, he wandered into the dininig room which was not yet open for the evening. A short while later, fire was discovered in the dining room by Mrs. Janie Pullen who works there. A chair and table cloth were burning as well as a cardboard box, and some placemats were scorched, according to Trooper R.A. Baines who investigated. Unlighted matches were also found in several places. THEFT AND VANDALISM WERE discovered Saturday at the Moreley and Cochran property on Route 600 near Sperryville. Investigation is being made by Trooper Baines. Tools valued at $500 were taken and a window was smash - ed with rocks. On the state road a bridge railing was also torn off. □

Happahanmirk ^faus Published Thursday Morning at Washington, Rappahanpock ^ ^ County, Virginia, by the Fauquier Publishing Company, Inn/ <4, Entered as Second Class Mail at the Post Office in Washington, Virginia. Subscriptions (in advance) $3 in Rappahannock and adjacent counties: $3.50 East Coast: $4 Midwest: $4.50 West Coast MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 Welcome news WHILE IT APPEARS that the fight is by no means over to save Rappahannock County from the ugly scars of additional huge, high voltage powerline corridors, the Pepco announcement that it is dropping its Riverton-Boston request is welcome news. Also of note is the comment by Phil Irwin of the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection that Pepco’s action “points up the possibility that landowners can have something to say about the future of their environment.” Too often in modern American life^, citizens have a habit of shrugging helplessly, and announcing that “they” will have their way, no matter what he thinks or does. “You can’t fight City Hall,” is one way of putting it. Well , you can — especially when, as Irwin says, “citizens stick together.” RAPPAHANNOCK citizens are by no means alone in their concern for their surroundings. Our neighbors in Fauquier are also upset about powerlines, and road projects, and “development” schemes which could radically upset their lovely county. So are people in Loudoun, whose Supervisors are in court because of their contention that it is ^hey — and the people of Loudoun — who should make decisions on whether there is to be development, and when, and that these are not things which the developers can decide for themselves. Let’s all take heart in Pepco’s announcement, and concentrate now on Vepco — and all others who would bulldoze us and right-of-way these beautiful old hills to death. □ Barns A large number of subscribers were able to correctly identify the barn in last week’s issue of the Rappahannock News as that of Mr. and Mrs. C.W. Fannon of Laurel Mills. Of these, A.C. Dodson of Amissville was the fortunate reader who will receive a subscription to the paper for himself or a friend.

Letters to the editor RLEP clarifies dam stand Editor: In your report on the March 2 meeting of the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors (R.N. March 9, headlined, “Supervisors Reaffirm ‘Neutral’ Stand on Dam,”)you stated: “The Clerk, E.M. Jones, was asked to inform Lt.Gen. Daniel Noce, Randy Carter and Phil Irwin by letter of this action. Each of these persons represents a group either pro or con on the issue.” Allow me to correct an impression that may have been left with your readers. While General Noce and Mr. Carter may represent themselves pro and con respectively on the Salem Church Dam proposal, The Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection (RLEP) has no position on the issue. Like our county supervisors, RLEP directors have voted to remain neutral. The Salem Church Dam, RAPP CHATS By RAP OWINGS Extension Agent, Agriculture RAPPAHANNOCK CATTLEMEN have made a habit of producing the top performing bulls at the annual Performance Tested B.C.l.A. Bull Sale and this year was no exception. Ninety-one bulls sold for a total of $95,980 or for an average of $1,054. Fifty-eight Angus bulls sold for $61,870 and averaged $1,066 per head. Of the top 20 bulls sold, terf were from Rappahannock. The top selling bull was an Alpine Farm’s consignment that sold for $4,000. Ned Johnson’s Wye bred bull was purchased by White Hall Farm ® for the second highest sale price of $3,650. James Cannon’s Elevate bull ranked fourth in the sale and sold to American Breeders for $2,300. Randall Updike’s Bardolimere bull, with Elevate breeding on the dam’s side, ranked fifth in sale price and sold for $1,700. Two good Hereford bulls were purchased from this sale by Herbert Barksdale and H.L. Manwaring.

T H E L I T T L E F' 0 X Quality guarantee available on set-aside land Farmers who use the set-aside inspection and early measurement service offered by the county ASCS Office will be guaranteed that their set-aside acreage in the 1972 farm programs will be of acceptable quality and sufficient acreage to earn full program payments. The quality guarantee is new, according to T. R. Taylor, Chairman of the Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service. The guarantee of sufficient acreage, provided the staked measurements are followed, has long been ama jor reason for widespread use of the ASCS Measurement Service by farm program participants. Guarantee means that if a farmer gets set-aside inspection and early measurement service — and follows those measurements when he makes his set-aside —then ASCS guarantees no deductions will be made from his program payments because of insufficient set-aside acreage or because the set-aside land was not of average productivity. The quality-and-quantity set-aside guarantee was announced at the beginning Si Sez BY THE TIME this appears in print the month of February will be history, but I’ve heard so many unfavorable remarks about it 1 wanted to say a few words in it’s defense. Some have called it Febru-weary, some say it is a short month because God saw it was such a bad month. Gen. 1:14 has this to say about it: “And God said ‘Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years:’” When He threw this flaming orb out into space add set it spinning on its orbit around our sun, the ftrst spin was the first day, approximately 365 days later the first, year. Into the year is crammed all the days, months, signs and seasons. The Book says ' that it was good. Who are we to say what He has made is bad? This month comes from the old Roman Februanus, month of purification. It seems that a month was dedicated to cleansing for the New Year which came at the time of the vernal equinox. Imagine taking a month to purify themselves, to make themselves more worthy of a new year. Modern times? February 'gave us two of our greatest presidents. Onei(little girl said that Washington was a bad boy, he . cut down- his father’s favorite cherry tree and his father^ spanked him so hard he couldn’t sit down;’he couldn’t even sit down in the boat when he crossed the Delaware. It seems he could kneel in "prayer. - Then the*1# was the Great Emancipator who said, ’'“yoir.^n’t:!fool all the people all the time.” That Was before ihe modern road system, however. God gave us a planet to live on, He gave us a condition we call TIME. He gave man the intellect to divide time into periods-of days, weeks, months and years.* Dd'ydu believe in the signs? Well, they are there. AIM; the Book says that God made them and they were good; yea, very good. □ — J.B.P. of the sign-up period for the 1972 feed grain and wheat programs. Signup continues through March 10 at the county ASCS Office. Program participants who want measurement service usually request it when they sign up, since it is a convenient time. This year, Mr. Taylor said special consideration should be given to getting in early to sign up and to request set-aside inspection and early measurement. The service is provided at a nominal charge which covers the cost. The quality guarantee for set-aside acreage is important because of the “average productivity” requirement for set-aside land, the ASC committee chairman said. Land designated for set-aside must have a productive capacity at least equal to the land on which program crops are grown this year — or the land on which program crops would have been grown. Failure to meet this requirement can result in reduction or loss of farm program payments. Taylor also said that the local ASCS Office had been instructed not to accept for set-aside land any acreage which is known in advance to be far below average duality. Under the Agricultural Act of 1970, which embodies the set-aside program, farmers participating in the voluntary feed grain and wheat programs may plant their cropland al Cage specials On Tuesday, March 21, there will be a basektball game at Rappahannock County High School starting at 6:30 p.m. The Junior Class girls will play the Senior girls and the Junior Class boys will play the Senior boys. Admission will be $1 for adults and 75 cents for students. □ BIRTH ANNOUNCED Mr. and Mrs. Roger Lee Morris of Chester Gap axe the parents of a son, Aaron Dwayne, born March 9 in Winchester Memorial Hospital.

COUNTRY ESTATE PLANNING CONSTRUCTION • CONSERVATION DEVELOPMENT AND SECURITY Virginia economy'moved up’ Virginia’s economy moved upward in January for the third consecutive month, according to J. Gordon Gifford, editor of the Virginia Employment Commission’s magazine, Economic Indicators. In an article in the February issue, Gifford said that 12 of the indicators used to measure the state’s economy in January were up from December, one was unchanged and five declined. All 18 indicators were up compared with January a year ago. Most significant he said, was a rise of four percent in non farm employment. It has been three years since there was an over-the-year employment increase of this magnitude. At 2.9 per cent in January, the total unemployment rate was its lowest since March 1970. Four of the six leading indicators, those which show changes in the economic cycle earliest, improved in January. They were: the new hire rate and the total hiring rate for manufacturing production workers, the layoff rate, and average weekly initial claims for unemployment insurance. The latter was down 18.7 per cent from the previous month to 1,522. This was the lowest total since July 1969 and was a drop of 38.2 The All New 40 HP International 454 TRACTOR CHECK THESE STANDARD FEATURES POWER STEERING DECK CLEAR _L SYNCRONIZED TRANSMISSION I_ LIV£ HYDRAULIC 12 GPM-2500 PS1 ALL NEW ENGINES 157 cu. in.

Average weekly earnings of manufacturing production workers rose from the December figure of $119.51 to $121.49. The quit rate, which measures workers’ evaluation of the existence of better paying jobs, was up slightly from December. New business incorporations, the valuation of building permits issued, electric power sales and new vehicle registrations declined. □ The barn spotters THOSE WHO joined A.C.

The beat fascinates him, sustains him, tests his strength and street cunning, mocks him and yet glorifies him. We wander with him about the beat among various cultures and subcultures. We see Bumper’s unique moral code at work, witness his peculiar brand of dedication to get the job done at whatever cost. But things begin going wrong.. .easy decisions seem blurred, a group of antiwar demonstrators make a fool of him, he is caught in an act of perjury... two of his cronies grow old before his eyes. Bumper’s confidence and vigor are challenged. Finally he gets a chance to ‘shag a big one’.. .but with disasterous results...” □ Loan rates lowered The loan interest rate in the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Farm Storage and Drying Equipment JLoan Program is being lowered to 46 cents per $100 or fraction thereof per month, or to approximately 5-1/2 per cent annually. This represents a decrease from 50 cents per $100 or fraction thereof, or 6 per cent annually. Lower borrowing cost of CCC makes it possible to lower the interest rate to farmers USDA officials said. Under this program farmers can secure Commodity Credit Corporation loans to finance on-farm storage and drying facilities needed for grain and other commodities. ; Adequate on-farm storage and drying capacity enables a farmer to do a better job of utilizingfhis crops and lessens the possibility of his getting caught in a transportation bottle- > neck or in a market glut, USDA officials said. Latest program reports indicate farmers are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of adequate farm storage and drying capacity. In the first seven months of fiscal year 1972, there wefe 35,449 loans for a total of $106.4 million, compared with 10, 948 loans for $25.6 million during the same period of fiscal year 1971. □

Rappahannock County Elementary students who received certificates for outstanding participation in a magazine sales campaign were, front row, Tony Wayland, James Fountain, Harvey Gordon, Chester Fannon, Jerry Jenkins, Mark Bailey; second row, Julia Gordon, Penny Chadwell, Linda Thornhill, Craig Smoot, Sammy Foreback, Bonnie Dawson, Tammy Settle; back row, Melanie Thornhill, Barbara Martin, Eddie Hackley, Sheri Settle, William Carter, Patsy Vest, Vickie Jenkins, Jimmy Swindler and Bridget Brown. National debt interest high What is it that Rappahannock County residents pay three times as much for, via their Ffederal taxes, than for aid to education? What is it that takes a bigger piece out of their U.S. tax dollar than Federal spending for pollution control, aid to housing, price support for agriculture, manpower training and the space program, all combined? Interest on the national debt, that’s what. Because the ceiling on the national debt, $430 billion, is about to be reached, the Nixon administration, faced with a massive dificit in the next fiscal year, has requested a multi-billion boost in the legal Home Improvements Culpeper Planing Mill Aluminum Siding Roofing • Guttering Jalousies - Storm Windows and Doors * Floor, Covering Ceiling Tile - Aluminum Awnings Williamsburg Paint Wallpaper Swimming Pools 302 S. East St. Culpeper 825-1755 _ debt limit. Since $430 billion is a sum too colossal to grasp it is broken down for better understanding. If it had to be paid off at this time and if everyone in Rappahannock County and in the rest of the country had to chip in an equal share to liquidate it, it would require $2,160 from every man, woman and child, or more than $8,000 per family. Since there is, of course, no plan to pay of£ the debt, it presents no immediate problem. What is of concern, however, is the huge amount of interest that must be paid on it annually. It will total no less than $21.2 billion during the next fiscal year, second only to the cost of national defense, the new budget shows. Residents of Rappahannock County will be paying approximately $276,000 toward these interest charges, in line with their normal share of the overall tax load. Per local family, it amounts to some $180. Student works for Broyhill Ann-Charlotte Lindgren, daughter of Oscar Lindgren, Washington, is among 83 juniors at The Madeira School, Greenway, who • are spending the first two weeks of March working in Congressional offices on Capitol Hill as part of their public affairs course. > Miss Lindgren is working for Representative Joel T. Broyhill of Virginia. □ Since 1941, when Congress moved to put a limit on Federal spending, during Franklin Roosevelt’s presidency, by placing a ceiling on the national debt, there have been many changes in the ceiling. Congress has raised the legal limit 23 times in the subsequent years, as Federal spending continued to mount. As a result, the ceiling is now many times as large as it was initially. The annual interest charges have grown proportionately. Since 1960 alone, they have climbed from $9.2 billion a year to the current rate of $21.2 billion. □ Cinema circus Wayside Foundation for the Arts will open the 1972 Cinema Circus, a festival of acclaimed international films, on March 19 with the Italian film “The Bicycle Thief.” The six Sunday evenings of outstanding cinema will be presented at Wayside Theatre in Middletown. The second program in the festival will feature the film work of Mexican director Luis Bunuel on March 26. The program will combine two notable Bunuel films, “Simon of the Desert” and“UnChien Andalou.” For information concerning the film festival subscriptions, contact Wayside Theatre in Middletown. □ Game law hearing The Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries will hold its annual public hearing on game and fish laws March 24 in Richmond, says Executive Director Chester F. Phelps. The meeting is scheduled to begin at 9:30 a.m. in the Commission’s conference room at 4010 West Broad Street. “A number of letters have been received covering such diverse subjects as early squirrel seasons, Sunday hunting, protection of the black bear and a year around trout season,” Phelps said.

Free wildlife seeds Now is the time to place orders for wildlife planting materials distributed by the Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries with your local game warden, reminds Program Coordinator Harold Trumbo. Bags of annual game bird mixture, each sufficient to plant 1/8 acre, are available free to qualified landowners and to clubs and civic groups who can substantiate that they have land available for planting. The seeds, attractively packaged in clear plastic bags with a multi-color illustration of game birds on the front, will be delivered toward the end of March. The annual game bird mix consists of soy beans, Korean lespedeza, foxtail milled, proso millet, browntop millet, buckwheat milo maize and rape. These crops are grown and harvested from arrable portions of Game Commission Wildlife Management areas in Eastern Virginia. The mixture is attractive to quail, turkeys, doves rabbits and deer. Biologists recommend planting it in strips along field edges adjacent to cover. Wood land fire trails, abandoned logging roads and power - line or pipeline rights of way are well suited. Orders for the game bird mixture should be placed with the game warden assigned to the county in which the property is located. Seeds do best when planted from mid - April through late May. A total of nearly 100,000 pounds were planted by 14,607 cooperators in the spring of 1971.

Seminar on Salem Church Dam to be Saturday What does the future hold for the Rappahannock and Rapidan Rivers? Will they we dammed by the Army Corps of Engineers’ proposed Salem Church Project, or will they be developed as natural rivers € under a plan proposed by the U.S. Bureau of Outdoor Recreation? A public seminar on Saturday, March 18, will explore the various views of how the main water resources of the Rappahannock basin should be handled. The seminar, to which the public is invited, free, will be held at Hugh Mercer Elementary School in Fredericksburg. The program will begin at 10 a.m. with an introductory statement of the project’s history by Mayor Josiah P. Rowe 111 of Fredericksburg. Speaking in support of the project will be Col. James Tormey of the Army Corps of Engineers and a representative of the Virginia Department of Conservation and Economic HOMEMAKERS’ HINTS By KAY E. WEBB Extension Agent, Home Economics In most cases, when a homemaker finds an insect or two in the dry foods kept in the kitchen cabinets, she is quick to blame a dirty cabinet for attracting the little pests. According to William H. Robinson, Extension Specialist in Household Insects, insects can get into the cleanest of kitchens in any one of several ways over which the lady of the house has no control. The infestation in many cases does not originate in the home. It is likely that even without advanced technology, the insects could infest the food at the processing plants, during transportation or at either the wholesale or retail stores. Several kinds of insects can be expected in the kitchen at one time or another. These might include the following: saw tooth grain beetles, Indian meal cloth, flour beetles, angoumois grain moths, bean and pea weevils and drug store beetles which may cause some concern. They all produce similar damage and require similar control measures. Some pantry pests are general feeders and will consume nearly all types of vegetable and animal matter. Others have definite food preferences. Chocolate, nut meats, macaroni, spaghetti, breakfast cereals, certain drugs, and tobacco, red pepper, powdered milk, dried peas and beans are a few of the many foods which attract pantry pest. The control and elimination of these insects are not difficult. Materials stored for a length of time should be inspected periodically. Where foods have been accidently spilled, all particles should be removed to deprive the insects of a place to feed. Newly purchased foods should be inspected to make sure they are not affected. Susceptible foods should be stored in glass, plastic or metal containers with tight fitting lids. Other steps for control of household insects and identification of the pests may be found in V.P.l. Publication 415, Control of Household Insects available from your local extension office.

Band contest added to Apple Blossom Festival A new event, a Field Marching Band contest, has been added to the annual round of features of the Shenandoah Apple Blossom Festival in Winchester, May 5-6. 5 The field band competition will be held on Saturday, May 6, at 8 p.m. at James Wood High School. Wayne Tipps, Dean of Students at Shenandoah College and Conservatory of Music, currently on leave of absence for graduate study at the University of Michigan, is in charge of the event, and his principal assistants will be Daniel Schoemmell, band director at James Wood, and Marvin Piland, Handley Marching Band director. The event will open with all competing bands massing on the field in joint concert, to be led by a noted guest director. The competition which follows will allow each band a minimum of 5 minutes and a maximum of 7 minutes in which to perform their intricate routines. Three visiting judges, / located at three different points in the viewing areas, will judge the performances. Music Educators National Conference adjudication forms and standards will be used, and trophies will be awarded for first and second places in each of three categories of school size. Festival officials, commenting on the decision to include a field band contest, noted that most band directors want as much competitive exposure as they can obtain while in Winchester, with new bands inquiring about concert, stage and field band contests. Shenandoah College and Conservatory of Music already takes care of the concert competition apart from the Festival, officials said. Since trips to the Festival require lots of fund raising on the part of bands and their boosters, the more experience gained, the less the cost of the trip in the long run, officials added. In addition, the new event will provide ac1 STATEMENT BY GOVERNOR Farm Bureau members render an outstanding public service to our Commonwealth by providing' an effective and respected voice for an important segment of our citizenry.

A weekend of field trialing YOU LIKE BIRD DOGS. Your husband likes bird dogs? You both hunt and are crazy about bird dogs? Anyway, you’d enjoy going out on a pleasant hack, a smooth-gaited walking horse, and following a pair of crazed white pointers around the big country near Thoroughfare Gap which runs along the Bull Run Mountains, listening to the pleasant talk of the gallery that need not mean anything to you. Suddenly, one of the dogs snaps to a point. . .If you haven’t been watching, just enjoying the ride and the country, suddenly you are a part of the cantering gallery rushing toward the pointing dog to see the handler dismount, flush a bird before the staunch dog, and send him on again. This is the weekend of two field trials; the Northern Virginia spring trial and the Air lie Trial. NORTHERN VIRGINIA is a recognized, conventional trial, complete with mounted handlers, judges and gallery. The dogs run half-hour braces. There is friendliness here and the veneer of friendliness since all recognized trials amount to competition. For the trainers, the trials represent an uncertain livelihood; for tiie amateur handlers and owners the competitiveness may be politely disguised. But then, no two hunters go out on a fall day without hoping that their dog will reflect the hours of patient training and show a little better than Mthe other dog.” THAT’S THE WAY IT IS at the Airlie trial. Most of the hunters know each other and hunt together. There’s a lot of jostling, jesting, that goes with hunting. Hunters walk behind their dogs, turned out in half-hour braces, make a big loop and return to a bird field where spectators may sit (up on a hill) and watch the dogs come up through the field, working the planted birds. If you don’t want to stay in the saddle, Airlie is for you. But should you want to trailer in a horse and enjoy an afternoon’s ride at bird dog pace, then Northern Virginia should appeal to you, where you can also rent walking horses at $2 a half hour. Either way, field trialing is an extremely pleasant sport. The Airlie trial is a fall and spring event, where bird dog enthusiasts such as “Bumps” Gouldethorpe and Archie Myers of Warrenton, Willy Epes of The Plains, J. T. Koval and Terry Scott of Warrenton, are usually in contention. The Airlie trial hasn’t quite got that competitive edge that comes with a trial of professionals. As Bumps Gouldethorpe puts it: “No one gets mad.” All this time you’ve liked the look of pointers and setters, perhaps enjoyed fall days of quail shooting, so why not go to Cloverland Gun Club’s grounds just east of Thoroughfare on Route 55 Friday and Saturday, then on to Airlie, near Warrenton on Sunday? — Harrison O’Connor A group of teachers from Frederick and Warren counties are joining many Rappahannock County Elementary School teachers in a course on “Elementary School Curriculum” given by the University of Virginia and being held at the local elementary school. Since snow had interfered with some of the classes, a double session was held Monday night and the local group served their classmates dinner. New state highway map printed The 1972 edition of one of Virginia’s most popular publications — the official state highway map — is off the press and being distributed. One and a half million copies have been printed, and will be distributed by the Virginia Department of Highways — which prepared the map — and by the Virginia State Travel Service and other travel or ganizations, and through highway information stations and rest areas. The State Capitol—home of the oldest continuous legislative body in America — is featured in a color photograph on the map cover. Several other governmental buildings, showing a variety of architecture, are in the background. As in past years, the new highway map shows many of the State s scenic, recreational and historic attractions and includes up-to-date information about highways Some 350 changes were made to update the map. The map shows interstate routes in green, arterial and other US numbered primary highways in red, and state numbered primary and major secondary routes in gray. ^Why put it off any longer?

Women who reach 65 in 1972 generally can ►get monthly retirement checks after only Cl/2 years or more of work. “You earn social security retirement payments by credit for work you’ve done beginning in 1937, the year social security started,” said Mrs. Hazel F.

Social security work credit is measured in calendar quarters —JanuaryMarch, April-June, JulySeptember, or October - December. lviosi employes get credit for a quarter of work if they are paid $50 or more anytime in that quarter for work covered by social security,” she said. “Most self-employed people get social security credit for 4 quarters in any year their annual self-employment net income is $400 or more.” Today, more than nine out of 10 jobs in paid employment and self-employment are covered or eligible for coverage under social security. “To be eligible for social security retirement benefits,” Mrs. Crumpton said, “a man needs, at a minimum, quarters of work credit equal to the number of years between 1950 and the year he reaches 65. So, if he reaches 65 in 1972, he needs at least 21 quarters of work credit — or 5-1/4 years.” A woman who reaches 65 in 1972 is eligible for retirement benefits if she has at least 18 quarters of social security work credit — 4-1/2 years. “Eligible workers can begin collecting their full social security retirement benefits at 65 or reduced benefits at62.
