Rappahannock News, March 23, 1972

Ruritans urged to resist Vepco powerline plan ; WITOLD KUNCEWICZ, who owns a farm near Flint Hill, painted a menacing picture of Virginia Electric & Power Company at last Wednesday’s meeting of the Leeds Ruritan Club, likening the utility to “an invading army” bent on imposing its will on hill farmers in Fauquier and Rappahannock Counties. A proposed 500 kv powerline linking Mount Storm, W. Va., and Morrisville, was the object of Kuncewicz’s alarm, and he urged fellow Ruritans and all citizens to act on “a sense bout the beautiful life here has to be against this,” he said. But despite his urging that the club take an immediate, tough stand against the powerline plan, action was tabled for further study, on the motion of Bolling Robertson of Delaplahe. of urgency — this is a very, very real thing.” “Anybody concerned aKuncewicz gave his impassioned appraisal of the situation as one of several committee reports Ruritan events planned AMESSVILLE RURITAN CLUB is sponsoring a public supper which will be served Saturday, April 1 and the following day the club has scheduled a community Easter egg hunt. Plans foj? both were made at the March 15 dinner meeting of the group. The supper April 1 will feature country ham and turkey and will be served at the Amissville fire hall. Sunday, April 2, the bunny will hide about 900 eggs at tiie carnival grounds for youngsters of the community to hunt. Speaker for the regular Ruritan meeting was ,, Extension Agent Rapley Owings whose topic was * the youth of Rappahannock County. A recent survey taken by the Extension Service indicated that major concerns of the young people are schools, highways and community. Owings introduced Troy Baker, Jackson District co-captain of the County Clean Up Campaign Day which is set for April 8. Troy told of plans for the community clean up and requested the Ruritans to volunteer assistance, which they did. □ called for by club president Nic Kortlandt. After describing Vepco’s powerline plans, and noting that “no agency has control over it,” he said if action is not taken soon, local farmers will wake up to find 13'5-foot towers, measuring 235-feet across at the base, marching over the beautiful Blue Ridge and down through Fauquier and Rappahannock. IN DESCRIBING the area as “farmland,”Kuncewicz acknowledged that its primary asset is notits farming potential. “This is not farm land, but we still have some farming because land values have been going up. If those people are allowed to bring this monster through, the land values within sight of this thing will go down.. .Nobody will come up here anymore and buy 100 acres and pretend they’re farming. They’ll come here now because its beautiful, and the pretense of farming comes later.” If Vepco needs to bring in more power, it should channel it through existing powerline corridors, argued Kuncewicz, who owns the Virginia International Equipment Company in Gainesville. “They should go only where its already messed up.” KUNCEWICZ described Vepco as “a big company that has everything to press Big Devil to fight sale COUNSEL FOR THE BIG DEVIL Ski area and the Robert M. Gamble Inc., advertising agency of Washington, D.C. said Wednesday his clients intend to take “appropriate legal steps” in Rappahannock County to fight the proposed sale of the Big Devil ski area. (A notice of a trustees’ sale on the property is published in this issue of the News.) In a brief statement, Mark Sandground of Washington, D.C., said: “As counselor for the Big Devil Ski Area ^nd for Robert Gamble, we have been studying the notice of the foreclosure and intend to take appropriate legal steps.. .to fight the proposed sale. “My client feels the area will be successful and is presently refinancing the project. “My client feels in the economic growth of Rappahannock County this development will be important to orderly expansion of the county’s facilities to the citizens.” IT HAS BEEN ACKNOWLEDGED by Gamble that Big Devil had a “poor season” this winter due mainly to a mild winter. According to Gamble: “To be perfectly factual about it, this mild winter has cost Big Devil $200,000$250,000 in additional income despite the fact our income was four times that of each of the last two years.” □ their case,” and claimed it is using several practices that have misled local land owners. Surveying crews pose as State Highway Department or U.S. Geodetic Survey people he said; trees are felled wholesale, using hand axes, so that the landowners won’t hear the piercing sound of power saws. “We’d better look into this before these towers go up,” he concluded. Robertson agreed that this is “real serious,” but called for a special study committee before the Club takes any specific action. Reynolds Harnsberger of Markham, a former national official of the lzaak Walton League, joined Kun cewicz in calling for strong action. “We should be in the middle of this powerline fight,” said Harnsberger. “We should do all we can to stop this line from going through. There is no need for this line; there will be no power made available from it for Warrenton, Rappahannock or any part of Fauquier.” RICHARD TOMPKINS, secretary of the Leeds Club announced that the club’s Father — Son — Daughter Night will be held June 21, and that the annual Barbecue and Jousting Tournament will be held August 12 (Turn to pace 4) Just look at that! Mrs. Witold Kuncewicz of near Flint Hill is disgusted at the debris left by surveyor crews at the family farm. She and exercise girl Dale Evans inspect one of the large trees felled to clear “sight lines.”

SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 Control woes HOW TO CONTROL “growth” is on the minds of just about every lawmaker in these parts lately . But sometimes, it seems the best efforts of the controllers are being undone by the very regulatory laws they’re working with. It may not exactly be a classic case of the right hand not knowing what the left is doing, but some of the conflicts do make you wonder. Take “strip” or “ribbon” development, for instance. Almost everyone deplores it. A countryside spoiled by rows of little ticky-tacky houses, “running up and down every road,” is the specter usually conjured up. Horrible! Something to be avoided, right? Wrong, that is, if you follow most county ordinances. Fauquier county, for instance, is extremely strict that certain minimums of state-maintained road frontage be available before any building site is approved. According to one county official, this requirement is the subject of more requests for zoning variances than any other provision in the site plan laws. But is what was intended as a sensible control over development actually something which promotes ribbons of housing, “up and down every road?” PRINCE WILLIAM County thinks maybe it is, and that county’s engineering and planning departments are looking into the feasibility of allowing single subdivisions of parcels of a certain size, an amendment designed to encourage more building away from roadsides, back behind a hill, for instance. It’s an interesting study that might merit a wide audience. We’ll try to keep readers posted. ANOTHER PROBLEM of “growth” in rural areas concerns sanitary facilities, septic tanks. If you can’t afford vast sewer systems — and not many country counties can — then you set up strict standards for septic systems. The stricter the better, right? Maybe so, but look what happens, in the words of a Virginia State Health Department brochure’s questions-and-answers about septic systems: “(Q) As the area develops, isn’t the most suitable land used first? (A) Yes, contractors usually use up the best land first. (Q.) Isn’t the most suitable soil used for farming? (A.) Yes, farmers kno)v— that high, well drained land produces the best crops. Septic tanks, too, require high, well drained soils as they depend on drainage in the soil.” We could be buried by good intentions before the bad guys even got a shot at us. □ Barns Last week’s barn should have been an easy one to identify for it is the barn at Greenfield, the farm of Lloyd Schaeffer located on Route 211 just west of Washington. Mrs. Charles Smoot of Washington was the winner of the free subscription to the Rappahannock News for her correct identification. Others who guessed correctly included regulars, Clifton Clark, W.H. Lyne, Edward M. Clark, Robert Frazier and John R. Eastham, along with Mrs. Nelson Nethers, Mrs. Jean Hunter, Mrs. Ethel Bailey, Charlotte Freeman, Kermit Weakley, Frank R. Timbers and Mrs. D.E.

IF YOU ARE PLANNING to top dress your pasture or hay fields this spring and haven’t gotten the job done yet, you had better get a move on. Grasses and legumes make the best utilization of fertilizer when it is applied before growth starts. And many of the hillsides are already starting to green up. CHARLIE COMPTON REMINDED me the other night that this is the time to spray pastures for control of musk and curled thistles. Thistles are still in the rosette stage, yet actively growing and this is the time when they are most susceptible to control measures. Spray when the temperature will reach at least 60 degrees sometime during the day. Make sure you use enough water for adequate coverage. Do not spray when the wind is blowing. And do not use more than 30 pounds pressure per square inch. For more detailed recommendations contact the Extension Office. NOW LET’S TALK SOME trash. The young people are really going all out to clean-up the trash on the county’s secondary roads. We have become pretty trashie over the winter and this is going to take some doing.

New Front Royal livestock market picks site AFTER A SERIES of meetings held recently with farmers and business leaders from Warren, Page, Shenandoah, Clarke, Rappahannock and Fauquier counties, a farmer group has voted to build and operate a modern, first-class livestock auction just north of Front Royal. The location selected is ai the east side of routes 340-522, within sight of the Interstate 66 interchange, and six miles from Interstate 81. The steering committee for the group has authorized their attorney and agent, Douglas Arthur of Strasburg, to proceed with the corporate organization which will be known as the Virginia Producers Livestock Market. The decision to form the new market was based on the “enthusiastic response” of farmers and businessmen who attended the planning meetings held at Strasburg, Luray and Front Royal, as well as the desire expressed by many other individuals to be owners in such a market. INITIAL directors have been named to conduct the business of the new corporation until -wthe stock is sold and the shareholders * can meet and permanently organize the business. They are Vernon L. Kemp, Shenandoah and Warren Counties, who has been chairman of the steer^ ing committee; G. William Sedwick, Page County; Theodore Resting, Fauquier County; Alton W. Mathews, Ray C. Rudacille, Alton Morrison, and Grayson Cullers, Warren County. As stated in the public meetings, a letter will be sent, as soon as the legal processes are completed, to all those persons who indicated an interest in becoming owners. The initial stock offering, effective for 30 days, will permit the purchase of from one to 20 shares at $100 per share. IT IS PLANNED that the corporation will be owned by several hundred stockholders and that no one person or group will be permitted to control the corporation. A nine member board of directors will be elected by the stockholders to conduct the business with a professional manager. The corporation will be capitalized at $250,000 consisting of 2,500 shares of $100 par value stock. Any stock that is unsold SCHOOL NEWS Thursday night, March 23, the PTA of Rappahannock County Elementary School will meet at 7:30 p.m. Robert Leonard, Director of Instruction for Warren and Rappahannock counties, will discuss standards of quality education, and how they affect Rappahannock County.

Accessorizing is one of the easiest ways to extend your wardrobe. It can give a basic outfit that up-to-date look in a relatively inexpensive way. Accessories used to an advantage can make clothing more becoming by emphasizing good features and drawing attention away from your bad ones. An ensemble is much more effective if only one center of interest is used and other details are subordinated to it. Regardless of how attractive each individual item may be, too many bidding for attention not only creates confusion and results in no emphasis at all, but is also lacking in good taste. Keep in mind that an added center of interest is not always needed. Many costumes have their own design interest - patterned fabric, unusual buttons, or an interesting design line - which may be spoiled by any additional items. In this case plain accessories are the best choice. For information on accessories, ask for publication 391, Accent on Clothing Accessories. REMEMBER. . .CLEAN-UP DAY. . .APRIL 8, 1972.

He was not injured and damage was set at $75. William Edward Settle of Elkwood struck a deer on Route 522 north of Flint Hill Sunday night.

A discussion was held on the county-wide clean up on April 8. □ Rehabilitation program 'serves’ social security Social security “saves” $1.60 for every $1 invested in rehabilitating severely disabled people, according to Mrs. Hazel F. Crumpton social security district manager in Winchester. “Social security funds are ‘saved’ when people getting monthly disability checks are rehabilitated, return to work, and stop getting disability checks,” she said. Some 15,000 severely disabled people received rehabilitation services at a cost of $38.7 million between March'1966 and July 1969. More than 4,000 of them were able to return to paying jobs, according to a recent study. “The ‘saving’ in social security payments the workers and their families might otherwise have received amounts to $62.3 million — or $1.60 for every $1 invested on rehabilitation,” Mrs. Crumpton said. Social security pays monthly benefits to eligible workers who are severely disabled and cannot work PRE-SEASON SAVINGS Cut yourself a deal 1 fa Se<e us for special savings Be ready for spring (and richer, too) IH Model 60 Cadet® Riding Mower, priced to sell fast Fiberglass body, 4 speeds each direction.

In selected cases, social security helps pay for vocational rehabilitation services provided by State and local agencies. Since the period covered by the study, an additional 3,000 severely disabled workers have been rehabilitated with social security help. “Monthly checks that were paid to them and their families were stopped,” Mrs. Crumpton said. “The ‘saving’ amounts to $191 a month per worker.” Rehabilitated workers also resume social security contributions on their earnings after they return to work, she noted. Of the disabled who get social security payments, one in five receives rehabilitation services. Of that number, one in 10 gets financial help for vocational rehabilitation from social security.
