VA. STATE LIBRARY RICHMOND 19, VA. Volume XXIII, Number 23 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA • THURSDAY, APRIL 13, 1972 TEN CENTS Gamble loses Beaten by good weather; Big Devil goes on sale By HARRISON O’CONNOR CIRCUIT COURT Judge Carleton Penn called a recess during Wednesday’s hearing in Leesburg that saw Robert M. Gamble, owner of the Big Devil Ski Area at Washington, Va., attempting to stop foreclosure on the 370-acre prop erty by alleging that the initial transaction that involved Gamble with Jenkins Mountains Associates was a case of misrepresentation. Counsel for Gamble, Mark Sandground, walked up to his client, put his hand on Gamble’s shoulder and likened him to Job. Then Sandground wandered the recessed, empty courtroom and admitted to a reporter: “I got no case.” Sandground used a misrepresentation argument futilely, asking the court to temporarily enjoin the foreclosure scheduled for this Friday, until a full hearing. Like Job, Gamble could only admit to the court “that it never dawned on me that we couldn’t pay the first payment.. .all defeated because of the weather. “It has cost us at least a quarter of a million dollars in income, just because of an act of God. It’s been devastating to me. “This December was the warmest in 102 years. And there has only been 13 years with warmer Januaries,” lamented Gamble. THE COURT was “enormously sympathetic.” “The court is not a ski(See page 7) Mrs Sally Thornhill of Boston, Del. D. French Slaughter of Culpeper and Mrs. Mildred F.

Vepco vs. trees Sheriff gets extra part-time man THE REGULAR business of the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors was conducted Thursday following the annual road hearing. The agenda included livestock claims, dumping and refuse, and additional personnel for the sheriff’s department. A claim by Tom Lee for the loss of four sheep was approved by Dog Warden Bruce and the Board with value set at $25 each. The Warden did not sanction a claim for sheep of Dabney Eastham. He said the sheep had no visible marks of injury by animals, but had died a day or so after they had- been chased by dogs. The Board approved the erection of signs at the portable dumping units stating that they were for use of county residents only. Evidence had indicated that much of the trash was coming from other counties and burnables, which are not allowed, were being put in the dumpsters. Sheriff John Walker Jenkins said much of the refuse was coming from Strasburgand Woodstock. A letter from the State Department of Health reminded the Board that it had not received a 20 year plan on solid waste from Rappahannock. This prompted a discussion on a joint venture for a landfill with another county, and the dump committee is to pursue this further. t (See page 6) Question of who can cut what goes to Richmond THE CASE of Virginia Electric & Power Company vs. Rappahannock County trees went through another flurry of hearings in court in Washington Wednesday morning, and then the attorneys took off for Richmond and further arguments before the Virginia Supreme Court of ApPe(The hearing in Virginia was scheduled to begin at 3:30 Wednesday afternoon, and at press time . no report on the proceedings had been received. We’ll give full details next According to one par*ticipant, the hearing Wednesday morning was called when the court discov ered that one of the prec- quently overturned, edent cases cited the pre- Judge Raynor Snead then vious week by Vepco at- issued a “modified retorneys'had been subse- straining order,’’ setting 'Bad company policy? WITOLD KUNCEWICZ of Flint Hill was pleased that Judge Raynor Sneud had modified an earlier order regarding the cutting of trees by Virginia Electric & Power Company surveyors, but he was still indignant about the utility company itself. “At 8:45 this morning (Wednesday), I was on the way to the court house in Washington and I met the man in charge of surveying. I told him the case was being re-heard and that there was a chance the order concerning what trees could be cut would be changed. “I asked him, just as a matter of courtesy: Would (See page 19) ; more severe restrictions on Vepco’s tree-cuttingfor surveying purposes than he had first imposed. IN THE first order, issued after the hearing on April 5, Judge Snead had restricted Vepco from cutting any “living tree” of less than 10 inches in diameter at “breast height (four feet).” The modified order issued this Wednesday told Vepco “Wherever possible” not to cut or trim any dogwoods, and to not cut any living trees five inches in diameter at breast height. VEPCO attorneys E. Montgomery Tucker and Thomas Monohan objected to any “cutting limitations,” claiming that Judge Raynor Snead had “imposed conditions beyond the equitable power of the court.” Rappahannock citizens protesting Vepco surveying also objected, maintaining that allowing the cutting or taking of “any trees, brush or vegetation of any variety” is improper. Traveling to Richmond to continue the arguments were Tucker and Monahan, Commonwealth’s Attorney George H. Davis Tr.. and Edward P' ton,

SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing^Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 'Upgrading’ roads THE PEOPLE from Laurel Mills were right. The old iron truss bridge should be kept— patched up, if necessary — and for a number of reasons. .Highway engineers always have an answer for such pleas, but sometimes we wish they wouldn’t even try. We wish they’d listen to the people, instead. It’d be a welcome change, and it might even make for better driving conditions. Take the old one-way iron truss bridge in question, for example. Drivers have to exercise extreme caution in negotiating it. They have to slow down, even stop, and on occasion, be courteous enough to let the other guy go through first. Some people in the neighborhood think this is desirable. Drivers going slow and carefully negotiating a tight squeeze add up to a safe condition for everybody — themselves and youngsters in the area. BUT, NO. The Highway Department want to tear down the one-lane bridge and replace it with one of those stark concrete numbers. They’ll probably straighten out a few curves while they’re at it, too. All in the name of improving safety, of course. Will it be safer? We doubt it. Unless driving habits are due for a radical overnight change, most people will see those straightened curves and a nice, wide bridge as just an invitation to stomp on it. If speeding up traffic makes for increased safety, we’d like to see the statistics to support such a contention. Sharp-eyed readers will notice that we haven’t even mentioned how much more picturesque the old iron truss bridges are. We know the engineers won’t listen to things like that; we’re still hopeful they may reconsider some of their current mania to “upgrade” every country road and country bridge into a high-speed nightmare. □ Continuing opposition Editor: Making and changing laws is a slow, step-bystep process which is costly and time-consuming at best. Nevertheless, changes for the better have been accomplished by the determined efforts of the citizenry through courts .and our government representatives. It may appear to some of in the county in the ednesand RLEP were a total loss for RLEP in favor of VEPCO. This is not the case. This was just the first step in this process. The public in a united and determined way must fight injustice whenever it appears. It does not go away just for a wish. If Virginia Electric and Power Company had been sufficiently challenged prior to this we would not be faced with this expensive and consuming battle. It may not be your battle Barns The barn pictured last week was owned by C. E. Johnson Jr. of Sperryviile and is located on Route 231.

Letters to the editor Voters urged to register Editor: First, a thank you for the coverage you have given the Voter Registration change these past months. It has been most helpful. It is of grave concern that over 400 registered voters of Rappahannock County have not yet given their social security numbers to make their voter registrations complete. An advertisement last year produced moderate results. . .and now I do not have it in my budget to advertise again. Have you any suggestions to make as to how I can reach these people? I am in the office at the is urged directly today but it could be and probably will be tomorrow if we let this pass us by. The battle for survival does not necessarily belong to the jungle. Most of us experience it in one form or another from time to time. If we believe tha battle belongs back in the jungle help us fight for justice and fair play with this wolf in sheepskin. K.J.

T H E L I T T L E F 0 X Road hearing Old bridge defended, numerous road needs cited THE ANNUAL road hearing last week to air complaints and hear comments of the public followed traditional lines to a point when procedure was reversed , and a request was made to cancel planned “improvements.” A petition from a large group of Laurel Mills citizens, which was presented by Mrs. Esther Settle, requested that the overhead truss bridge on Route 618 be left as it is instead of being replaced by a new cement bridge. Mrs. Settle said members of the community fear increased speed on the “improved” section, and stated that at least 30 children live in the immediate area. She, as well as some others, considered the present bridge — a one-way structure which must be approached cautiously, — a safety factor, rather than a hazard. However, A. C. Hensley and Mrs. Lucy Tripplett each voiced" pleas for the relocation and construction of the bridge. Said Mrs. Triplett: “This one ic nnt wiHp pnnncrh nr hi?h enough to carry a piece of farm equipment or a load of hay across;” AMONG PERSONS requesting improvements and added maintenance on roads in the county where George Gollaher, Rappahannock Park near Amissville on Route 645, who stated that a petition had been presented in 1969 by the landowners offering land for the required 50 foot right-of-way. Engineer Skeens acknowledged the signatures, but explained that this did not make the right of way legal, and that each person J&'ould have to individually relinquish the land. He also stated that a small bridge was scheduled to be replaced right away and other improvements allowed. Resident Engineer James K. Skeens. explained that the steel of the bridge VILLAGE SHOP Main St. - Flint Hill Jelly from Oak Forest Gardens Tues. Wed. Fri. Sat. 11 til 6 had deteriorated and that an inspection indicated that it was necessary to replace and relocate the bridge. Mrs. Roy Reeve, speaking about Route 600 to 667 said, “There are two choices on that road: Hitting chuck holes or bushes.” SEVERAL complaints were registered about Route 640 west of Amissville. C. C. Zinn brought attention to “awful bad turns,” poor drainage, and said no work had been done on it in seven years. He stated that the road serves at least 18 families and construction of three additional, homes is planned this year. Mrs. Farrell Nicholas of the same route joined her father, Mr. Zinn, in a request for attention for the road. Mrs. Albert Doub was also eager to get this road widened and bad curves taken out. Mrs. Medrick Bell reported falling and fallen rocks impeded traffic on Route 600, which is narrow in places with steep cliffs on/1 k\/\l /\tir SPEAKING about the Old Hollow Road, Route 612, was Mrs. Eileen Day who cited a bad blind hill and a bank which is always dropping rocks. She attested to poor drainage at the little steel bridge and mill, and “water standing in the road.” Mrs. Samuel Harrison of Amissville requested attention for Route 611. She said this road was used by a school bus and had blind spots. She said if they were going to widen and pave the other end of it, as she understood, then “why not do it all?” Edward Lawrence and Mrs. Edward Parker of Route 647 each made a plea. Mrs. Parker thought thot in iri our nf tho omftlint of traffic on this road, paving was justified. Capt. Richard Tuma’s plea for paving Route 621, roughly a mile from Route 626 was followed by the query: “When can we expect black top?” SUPERVISOR Newbill Miller also mentioned that 12 families live in the area, which contains the .9 mile of road. He said: “Hampton District has had no major road improvements in years, and this district will be glad to take the bridge funds from Laurel Mills, if they are not wanted there.” Roy Beck of Route 604 said he had appeared for the past five years to petition for the widening of this road and some maintenance. Said he: “The rain has washed it out and the road is full of ruts. Twice the school bus has been in the ditch. Five new homes have been built or are un der construction.” Mrs. Lucy Triplett also requested work on Route 626, saying there was one “horrible place” where it was all washed out and a road machine had almost gone in the creek. Mrs. Douglas Fairfax, who lives near the highway maintenance year at Washington, complained about the black soot which she said eminates from the yard when tar is being heated there. SHE WAS assured that a new method for this will be instituted in a short while; that approval of this project has just been confirmed, and immediate action will be forthcoming. Supervisor Herbert Foster spoke concerning Route 637 beyond Mrs. Voigt’s. “Something ought to be done,” he said. “Mrs. Lewis said she has pulled off five or six mufflers on the road and, if nothing else, could th e bad hill be black topped?” He also mentioned the curves in Route 662 at Hun - tly, and said Mrs. Albert Wines had called him about Route 666 at Chester Gap. H. B. Wood Jr., Supervisor from Stonewall-Hawthorne District, said there didn’t seem to be many complaints from his district, but, “just don’t forget us.” Skeens thanked residents for coming, and said everything would be considered in making the new budget which is due in June.

Sheriff to get extra part-time deputy (From page 1) A PLAN for a subdivision on Route 622 by Oscar Lindgren which had been approved by the State Department of Highways was submitted to the Board of Supervisors and was ap» proved. It was noted that a private developer must get the permit for an entrance off a state highway. Sheriff Jenkins made a request to the Supervisors for an additional full-time « deputy and one part-time deputy and for a finger printing kit which he said was badly needed. Meeting a negative response from the Board to these requests, the Sheriff withdrew the request for the full-time deputy and the Board approved employing Ray Jackson part-time at $2,400 a year. He will work primarily nights and weekends, said the Sheriff, so this will not interfere with his regular employment. Jackson had been assisting in this department without pay.

One gentleman was telling a lady that he had been married to the same woman for over 47 years, that he hatf taken an oath before God to love her till death. 1 told him that he was to be commended, that 1 thought that most who made this vow did so with their fingers crossed. The lady said that maybe the vow should be changed to “till 1 find another 1 liR6 bcttGr The Book says that by some metamorphosis married peop'e become one flesh. 1 wonder if both parties sometimes wish they had the power to control their his-her tongue. James says that no man can tame this small organ called the tongue. He says it can bless and it can curse. Isn’t it sweet, after a tongue-lashing, to have that same tongue say, “Honey, forgive me, 1 didn’t mean what 1 said. I love you.” When something like this happens, and 1 imagine it does all too often, 1 suggest you read together the third chapter of James. 1 just read an article Dy a ui. w control. This is a sentence from the article: Our society is in urgent need of personalities whose behavorial patterns take them far beyond the norm that meets the minimum standards of general tolerance.” NOW I AM AN advocate of self-control and of tolerance to some extent, but what is the minimum standard? Don’t you think that our society is too tolerant of some conditions? Even Christ reached the limit of His tolerance. This little poem is by E.L. Sabin.— “An enemy 1 had, whose mein 1 stoutly strove in vain to know; For hard he dogged my steps, unseen, wherever 1 might go. My plans he balked; my aims he foiled; he blocked every onward way. When for lofty goal 1 toiled, he grimly said me nay. ‘Come forth’, 1 cried, ‘lay bare thy guise-thy wretched features 1 would see’. Yet always to my staring eyes he dwelt in mystery. Until one night 1 held him fast, the veil from off his form did draw; 1 gazed upon his face at last—and lo, myself 1 saw.” □ ; HDNTLY NEWS Mr. and Mrs. Earl Edmonds of Chesterfield county were weekend guests of Mr. Edmonds mother Mrs. Earl K.

Big Devil ski area plea fails (From page 1) er, but realizes that weather conditions this past winter have been extraordinary. The court is sympathetic to Mr. Gamble as a businessman. The court does understand that Mr. Gamble did not seek any expert advice prior to purchasing the real estate. Nevertheless, considering the validity of binding legal obligations...” Judge Penn could not grant Gamble the temporary injunction on an argument based on the weather. Friday’s foreclosure will apparently mark the end of Gamble’s plans that pvpntnallu micrht havp mounted to a $1.8 million investment, creating one of the major ski areas in the North Carolina - Virginia - Pennsylvania area, and further developing the property with “Alpine vacation homes.” GAMBLE HAS owned the property since December 14, when he agreed to pay $275,000 for 370 acres, plus an additional $15,000 for an additional inventory of T-Bar, 30 snow guns, night lights, rope tows and sundry equipment. Gamble paid a $40,000 cash down payment. Then the 20-year advertising veteran spent $250,000 in improvements to the property, including a chair lift, murals painted by Corcoran Gallery students, decking around the ski lodge to create an area with 12 slopes, night lighting, — all, to quote Gamble, for what was about to become “a viable ski area.” First Mark Sandground, in questioning his client, m. A BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT Mr. and Mrs. Charles R. Woodward of Amissville announce the birth of a son, born April 2, 1972 in Culpeper Memorial Hospital. Democrats name delegate list A mass meeting of the Rappahannock Democratic party was held Saturday at the courthouse in Washington. At this time delegates were named to attend the state convention in Roanoke June 9 and 10. Elected delegates were Carson B. Johnson ofSperryville, Gordon Thornhill, Boston; Edward Bailey, Washington, and Mrs. Mary Jane Jordan, Flint Hill. Johnnie Summers of Washington was chosen as alternate. At a meeting Monday night, Carson Johnson was selected to act as chairman for the local Democrats. □ attempted, to build up case of misrepresentation. He asked Gamble if the property and the inventory was accurately described by Edgar H. Brenner, spokesman for Jenkins Mountains Associates. “Did you rely on the representations of the property madfe in the real estate brochure?” asked Sandground. “Certainly. I happen to be in the advertising business and I happen to believe in the truth of advertising.” “When you spoke with Mr. Brenner, did he tell you it was an operating ski area? “WE FOUND that the T-bar broke down frequently, that we could only use two of the three rope tows. We couldn’t have operated on the given equipment. They also sold 20 night lights — surplus from the Signal Corps — for the purpose of lighting the slopes at night. They were like 20 paper matches, completely valueless. The 30 snow guns they supplied had to be junked. Their brochure indicated that 30 acres had been cleared for skiing, but only 11 were actually cleared.” “Did Brenner tell you about the reputation of the existing operation, called Ski Line?” “No sir, I had to find it out the hard way.” “What did Brenner tell you about the operation of Sky Line?” “We asked repeatedly for former figures. We were never given any bona fide figures, but eventually they indicated a $15,000 income in 1969.” “Did you have to upgrade the equipment?” “OH MY goodness, yes. We put over $12,000 in an air and water system. It appeared that on the main slope they had never spread any artificial snow on the top.” “How much cash out of pocket have you spent?” “About a quarter of a million, and I’ve contracted in writing for another half million for which I am personally liable.” Sandground’s point was that Gamble improvements were tied to the property and foreclosure would cause him irrevocable damage. But the lawyer could only beg the court’s consideration, as Sandground’s argument that Gamble had been subject to mis representation was subsequently rendered insignificant after questioning from Robert T. Mitchell, lawyer for Jenkins Mountains Associates. “WE THOUGHT we were not taking any risks at all. This season we had $15,000 weeks that in a normal season would have been $30,000 weeks. Of 60 resorts in New York State 55 were closed during the holidays because of similar weather conditions. I’ve never owed anyone m 20 years.” Robert T. Mitchel, Jr. questioned Gamble. “Did you undertake any studies of the particular property?” “No.” “Of the inventory and equipment — did you look at that equipment?” “No, I didn’t inspect each one. I’m not a skier.” “Were you familiar with any operations of any area?” “No.” “You based your decision to purchase on your visits, what you saw there?” “I originally told Brenner that I was interested in the property if I could get the proper' zoning. He told me that he couldn’t sell the property based on rezoning.” “DID YOU know in fact if the ski area was operational the previous year? And was a financial statement made available to you prior to closure?” “Yes.” Mitchel ran down a long list of costs and Gamble countered: “I can prove that improvements have exceeded a quarter of a million dollars.” Gamble’s replies became more and more a case of a businessman-advertising man relying on a marketing projection. He sold himself and, based on his own admission, only a bad winter had cut him off from sure success. “WHEN WE lost approximately $100,000 the first year, it was much more expensive than I thought it would be,” lamented Gamble. Holders of the note, Jenkins Mountains Associates, have now filed suit for full payment. Even Judge Penn wanted to ask: “Does the court understand that you had no expert advice?” “No sir, 1 did not. I assumed that what I was told to be true. A feasibility report said that Big Devil has thre e economic considerations in its favor: location, location, location.” Mitchel asked Gamble if he had been able to find refinancing. Gamble said no. Mitchel asked, that if given a delay, would he pay off the note. “I would very much like to pay off the $136,000.” Mitchel concluded: “It is unfortunate that his investment depends upon weather, but he cannot use this court as a means to delay payment on a legally binding contract.” Sandground “prayed” for a temporary injunction. And while the court was “enormously sympathetic” to Gamble’s situation, Penn ruled that no injunction would be granted. All undone by the weather. □ H.L.BORDEN LUMBER CO.

CULPEPER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, INC. REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY 1972 Purpon of Report. March was tha twelfth anniversary of tha opaning of Culpopor Memorial Hospital, Inc. The purpose of this report is to inform the community of their Hospital’s activites, in order that the community may have a better understanding of how their Hospital is serving them. Hospital Utifatioa. Hm ast of your Hospital is i»ow very high and the bond dearly indicates that tfao vttoatioo mo «■ ho critkaly high. Since the beginning of the canwt fiscal year, the percentage of occopaocy of oor Medical Soigical beds has heeo October 99%, November 105%%, December 75.9%, Janeary 95.7%, and February 105%%. Oor consultants estimate the percentage of occopaocy far next year at 121%. Emnston of Husk* Facilities. Currently year Hospital s completing plans for a 60 bed addition. ffftmrti- b scheduled to start this samaor. This facility is to bo known as tha Long-Term Cara Facility of Cnlpapar Memorial Hospital, Inc. Tha addition is the first phase of a long-term master plan tor expansion Hut began in December I960. Development of this long-term master plan was based upon a report cammimtened by year Hospital's Board of Directors which stadied the future medical needs of oar community and ranked these needs according to priority. The study and the report were performed by a lreip<tt» caasaltaat who is a recognized expert in the field. The need for the 60 bed addition was givan tap priority in the report of the original consultant’s study. Recently, a second study known as an Independent Financial Feasibility Study, authorized by your Hospital's Board of Directors, was performed by a ItHif national firm of certified public accountants. The feasibility study looked at the proposed 60 bed tf1^ In two ways: 1) to determine that the beds are needed and ml be utilized, and 2) to determine that your Hospital can pay tor the addition. The answer to both questions was a firm g* The State Health Department’s promise of a HV-Burton grant of *731,500 to help build the new wing is further rocagnitioo of the need for the addition. Future phases of the long-term master plan cal for: 1) new and expanded service ana (La., x-ray, laboratory, physical therapy, etc.), 2) new and larger emergency and oat-patient services, 3) men beds in every patient category, and 4) a physicians’ office building physacaNy attached to your Hospital. The master plan also calls for a Pediatric Unit Emergency Room Comg. Sine* your Hospital opened on Much 24, 1960, emergency room coverage was furnished by the General Practitioners who were members of your Hospital’s Medical Staff. This wotted wel until the summer ef 1970, when the number of tenoral practitioners on the staff became too few to furnish the accessary coverage. To meet this public need and to keep the Emergency Room functioning, the Board of Directors authorized hiring out-of-town physicians to cover the Emergency Room. Paid coverage started with weekends and was subsequently expanded to include week nights as the number of general practitioners further decreased. Paid coverage wi be continued until your Hospital has attracted sufficient physicians to make this unnecessary. For the year ended September 30,1971, your Hospital spent‘34,007 for emergency room physician coverage, and collected only '10,326 for services rendered by these physicians. Specialists on your Hospital staff furnish emergency room coverage for matters falling within their specialty. Family PractiftCfciic. Because of thi difficulty with emergency room coverage ind because of the dodinini number of (Herat practitionon in the community, your Hospital decided to take an unusual approach to the solution of both problems. Full-time, salaried, general practitioners an being Hired to famish immediate emergency room service. These physicians wilt also staff a Family Practice Clinic to ^service the patient as his family physician at the patient’s request This is an entirely different approach from the full-time coverage offered in other emergency rooms as they are primarily designed to corn emergencies and are. in fact, forbidden to follow patients through an illness. The minimum staffing for thefanily Practice Clinic has been set at three gmreral practitioners, the now have one physician and as soon as two more can be recruited, they wH eliminate the need for out-of-town physicians. Pediatric Unit At indicated earlier, four Hospital’s mastof plan contains provision lor a Pediatric Unit, last Inly, jotr Hospital offered to build this unit for the two pediatricians who located in our community. The offer was docKaed by the pediatricians. The proposed Pediatric Untt is still in our master plan and wi bo built when there is a pediatrician or pediatricians on the Hospital’s Medical Staff who want and wl use the facility. Medical Staff Qualificatious. Before a physician can bacons a member of tbs Medical Staff of Colpeper Memorial Hospital, Inc., his qualifications and training are researched, confirmed, and passed upon tint by the Medical Staff and finally by the Hospital’s Board of Directors. Ml services performed by members of the Medical Staff within your Hospital are closely reviewed by Committees of the Medical Staff and questionable professional services are reported to the Hospital Administration and the Board of Directors. Your Hospital takes great pride in the qualifications and level of professional competence of the Medical Staff members. As a further assurance, your Hospital, its Medical Staff, administration, and level of patient care are constantly reviewed, inspected and passed upon by several outside agencies. Among these are the State Health Department (annually), Medicare (annually), the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals (bunnuady), and others. The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals sets the standards for typital performance throughout the country and the results of their inspections at your Hospital consistently have been extremely favorable and your Hospital is fully accredited. Physician Recruitment Your Hospital has spent much time, effort and money during the past three years in the area of physician recruitment. This is a difficult assignment since the entire country is dotted with small and medium sized communities which are desperate for physicians. The number of available physicians is' small, the market is large and the competition is fierce. Direct support in the form of income guarantees from the Hospital Board have been given only to general practitioners and pediatricians. Other specialists have come on their own responsibility. However, with the support of the community, we believe that we can compete successfully. We think that this has been proven. One further comment on physician recruitment Clearly, general practitioners are more attracted to communities with local specialist support There are several reasons for this Fifty yean ago, a general practitioner could reasonably keep up with medical knowledge in all areas Increased medical knowledge since that time makes it impossible for one physician to know everything, hence the trend toward specialization. Also, the recently trained general practitioner is trained in an environment where specialists in every field are readily available to lend support whenever needed. A general practitioner today will seldom locate in a community where specialists support is not available. RW|MWTihiiHy of the Hospital to the Community. Your Hospital is owned by and operated for the benefit of the community. The ultimate authority of the Hospital is vested in a Board of Directors composed of representative people in your community. Hone is paid in any way. Their aim is to assure the highest quality hospital care possible and to meet the major (towing medical needs of our expandint on-the-move community. Your Culpeper Memorial Hospital must serve you, the citizens of its area~you must support the Hospital in fuKUlini its aim. The Board of Directors solicit your interest, advice and suigestions at ail times. RespectfuHy submitted, k Gordon Wlis, Jr. President Board of Directors J. IQnum, Jr taif.CMk Ralph L.

Wayland FORD TRACTOR SALES 29-211 BY PASS Warrenton As one end of the house burned, members of the Bragg family and firemen from Flint Hill dragged appliances and other household effects out the other end. Ultimate damage to the house and contents was estimated at $35,000. (Photo by Grant McClure) Tenant house heavily damaged A FIRE CAUSING nearly $35,000 damage, broke out April 1 in a tenant house on High Meadow Farm in Rappahannock County. The farm and tenant house are owned by Admiral Joseph Gardiner. P. B. Biggs, one of the firemen who fought the blaze, said it appeared that the fire started in an oil stove in the living room. Flames gutted the main wing of the two-story house that included two upstairs bedrooms, a dining room and living room. y The fire broke out about 12:30 p.nu| April 1. Some 20 firemen from the Flim Hill Volunteer and Amissville Fire Departments, using four pieces of apparatus, fought the blaze. They were at the scene about three hours. THE HOUSE WAS OCCUPIED by Herman Bragg, the farm’s manager, his wife, and three children. The family has moved to another tenant house on the farm. Some of their personal belongings were salvaged. Admiral Gardiner said nearly all the loss was covered by insurance. He estimated damage at nearly $35,000, including the house’s contents. □ Teen-agers spend freely ALTHOUGH many adults in Rappahannock County chose to cut down on their expenditures • during the last year or two while waiting for the economic climate to improve, their teen-agers did not. They continued to live it up. These free-spending youngsters were not bothered in the slightest by all this talk about inflation, big taxes and the high cost of living. Because their parents, in most cases, had bigger incomes than in other years and were able to give them larger allowances, they had more money at their com mand than ever before, an estimated $504,000. And out it went, but fast. It never had a chance to bore holes in their pockets. The expenditures centered, for the most part, on entertainment, food and hobbies, with cars and gas high on the list for boys and grooming items in the top spot for girls. THE EVALUATION of the teen-age market is based upon the findings of th< Youth Research Institute, the Apparel Manufacturers Association and others. The consensus is that the 27-1/2 million teen-agers in the United States earned, received and spent nearly 20 billion in the past year. It represents a rate of $730 per year or nearly $14 per week for those in the 13 to 19 set. The young ones get less than that and the older ones more. At that average rat^, the 691 in Rappahannock County who are in that age bracket are spending some $504,000 a year in local shops. Many of the teen-agers in the area earn part of this money by working after school and during their summer vacations. The rest of it comes from cash gifts and weekly allowances in amounts adjusted to their needs. TO RETAIL merchants, of even greater importance than the sales to their teenage customers is the strong influence the youngsters exert on family purchases generally. Nationally, it is estimated, more than $45 billion of family buying, ranging from cars to furniture and from food to vacation trips, is affected. In Rappahannock County, in line with the overall findings, this influence applies to purchases of about $1,134,000 a year. □ Orchards face change Virginia fruit growers, seeking solutions to such orcharding problems as the cost-price squeeze and a labor shortage, might find the answers in intensive plantings of smaller than standard trees, writes Virginia Tech associate professor of horticulture Fred R. Dreiling in the April issue of “Virginia Fruit” magazine. He likens the farmers’ need for more efficient orcharding practices to the problems faced by railroad builders who, starting from both east and west, finally met to drive the golden spike. Dreiling, an Extension specialist, tells of efforts to develop more efficient orcharding techniques and machinery to harvest the crops. Growers willing to increase their capital investments to implement the changes in their own orchards might find themselves driving their own golden spikes of prosperity.”

These students are from grades 2 through 7. Job-finding aid offered In less than two months about 1,500 young people just graduated from Virginia colleges will be ready for jobs. For most of them, finding a good job will be a competitive, time-consuming and, in some cases, futile effort. The job market for these young people will be tight, according to college placement officials. On-campus recruitment by large companies has dropped off sharply from the ‘60’s when students were scouted and courted for jobs the way high school athletes were sought by the big colleges. Today, graduating seniors, rather than being sought, are seeking jobs and many times must accept work in fields not related to their degrees. . . To help young Virginia graduates find work, the Virginia Employment Commission is gearing up its College Profiles program which, despite its late start last year, helped nearly 300 recent college graduates get their names before prospective employers. Under College Profiles, the Commission prepares a list of recent college graduates available for work. Published monthly May through August, the list will carry- the student’s name, home address, college attended, and major and minor courses of study, and will be distributed to 1,500 Virginia firms. Employers may contact the young people directly or may, by calling their local VEC office, arrange to have the VEC screen applicants and set up interviews. Employers wishing to receive College Profiles should contact their local VEC office. Students who want to be included on the list should contact their college placement officer or local VEC office. □ Birth announced Mr. and Mrs. William T.

The first restraining order was issued after the hearing the previous Wednesday in Circuit Court in Washington, against Paul R. St. Clair and Katherine J. St. Clair of Amissville, Henry Cook of Amissville, and Witold Kuncewicz and Dorothy A. Kuncewicz of Flint Hill.
