County runners tops in state! Second straight Class A cross country title is won State champs Rappahannock County High School’s cross country team, coached by John Toth, took the Division A state championship in competition at Williamsburg Saturday. Participating were Charlie Thomas, who also won first place individual in both the A and AA divisions, and Bill Taylor, front row; standing are manager Jerry Thomas, Morris Donaldson, Tom Taylor, John Summers, Bob Titchenell, Ronnie Nicholson and coach John Toth, who surround the championship trophy. By ROGER FLINCHUM RAPPAHANNOCK’S super cross country team took the Virginia State Championships by storm Saturday, winning an unprecedented second state A title in their second year of competition. Their winning score was an amazingly low 17. The perfect score is 15. Instate championships this is unheard of. The second place Perry McCleur team scored 47 points. The Panthers finished 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 17 and 20 in the A class field. The finishers were, in order, Charles Thomas, senior; Bill Taylor, sophomore; Tom Taylor, junior; John Summers, junior; Ronnie Nicholson, freshman; Bob Titchenell, junior; and Morris Donaldson, junior. THOMAS CAPPED a short but brilliant cross country career with a new state record run. His time over the 2.4 mile course at William and Mary College in Williamsburg was 12:08, a 39-second improvement (Turn ,to page 15) All news and ad copy for the Thanksgiving issue of The Rappahannock News ' must be in the office at Washington, Va. by closing time, 5 p.m. Monday afternoon. □ Kilpatrick gives his views on the elections JAMES J. KILPATRICK, a resident of Rappahannock and well-known commentator and columnist, spoke to an overflow crowd Monday night at the library in Washington, Va. on the subject of the past elections. He 'was introduced by Mrs. Mary Jamieson, who stated that the library “has never, and as far as your present board is concerned never will, become a platform for any political party, any political trends or for advantages of groups or individuals — whether Tory or Whig, Republican or Democrat, Conservative or Liberal, Communist, Socialist or Single Taxer.” Kilpatrick was introduced to the packed library as a syndicated columnist for some 260 newspapers, a commentator for CBS, NBC, WTOP, an interviewer of presidents, prime ministers and premiers, a “Rappahannock denizen,” and friend of the library. Kilpatrick intrigued the audience, comprised, apparently, mostly of Nixon supporters, with his outlined “nine postulates” on the past election, and ended with a question-and-answer period. HE OPENED WITH A JOKE about George McGovern, saying that during the campaign he had been on the West Coast covering the Democratic candidate and had returned to Virginia with whooping cough. He said he didn’t think there was any connection between the two incidents — it was only a coincidence. According to Kilpatrick, the key to the election lay in the “two Georges” — Wallace and McGovern — each of whom he said he had written off early in the primary campaign only to be surprised in the end. He then outlined his nine postulates with examples of each from this campaign. His first postulate was that the people of this country are indifferent to national issues that do not relate to them on a personal basis. He cited the war, which he said the people just did not relate to in this past campaign, rejecting McGovern in the greatest landslide since Roosevelt beat Landon in 1936. He added that defense spending and unemployment issues raised by McGovern did not relate

SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 Electrical code THERE’S SOMETHING to be said for not passing laws if there’s not enough enforcement muscle to enforce those laws. There’s also a great deal to be said in favor of any action by government, at any level, which tends to discourage the creation of still another bureaucratic apparatus. But having said these things, we still wonder about the action of the Board of Supervisors at their November meeting which tabled, indefinitely, any consideration of an electrical code for Rappahannock County. The majority attitude seemed to be one of caveat emptor — let the buyer beware. “...Let each person be on his own, and if he puts up a house where the wiring is such that he burns down his house, then it’s his loss.” That statement may correspond with some old-fashioned ideas about “rugged individualism,” and all that, but it’s hardly consistent with up-to-date concepts of a government’s responsibilities to the people within its jurisdiction. , FIRST OF ALL, THAT hypothetical house burning down is not just the owner’s bad luck. The fire could endanger a neighbor’s house or fields, and the volunteers who rolled out — most likely in the middle of a dark and cold winter night — to try and douse the flames would also be placed in a dangerous situation, as they are every time they answer an emergency call. Secondly, it’s not merely a question of an individual, foolish home builder buying a cheap and risky wiring job. One of the major benefits of something like an electrical code is to provide the legal means for preventing something cheap and dangerous being sold in the first place, and for providing a means of redress if some fest operator tries to get by the law. Where do Rappahannock home builders — and again, we refer to individuals, not contractors who should know better as a matter of professional competence — stand now? Out in left field without a glove, we’re afraid. AN ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR and assorted individuals all agreed that the matter of an electrical code for Rappahannock County, along with other structural codes, needs “further study.’’ Well, let’s give the matter the study it deserves and then get cracking on something Rappahannock needs. □ Barns The barn last week was located on the property of Mr. and Mrs. Patterson Biggs on Route 522 near Flint Hill.

What is wrong with the residents of Rappahannock County that they don’t have enough respect for the dead to take steps to correct this situation? After .all, this is the last thing we can do for our deceased friends and relatives. There are weeds growing four and five feet high on the graves, dead flowers that haven’t been removed and groundhog holes going into some of the gravesites. The sign that reads “Sperryville Cemetery” can hardly be read and the gates, gate posts and walls need painting and repairing. Since we are away from the county but have friends and relatives buried at Sperryville, it hurts us to go there and see the condition of the cemetery. To try to get this situation cleared up we will be glad to get together with a group to do the work and to also make a donation for paint and brushes and whatever else is needed. We can be reached at Route 3, Box 542N, Stafford, or call 659-4733. Mr. and Mrs. Russell Jenkins ivews item questionea Editor: Let me begin by saying that I enjoy very much the articles in your paper which relay to citizens of Rappahannock just what does go on at the local Board of Supervisors meetings. However, I have one question — Is there nothing held as “confidential, not for general knowledge”? The request for payment of hospital bills as presented by the Superintendent of Welfare for some • of our less fortunate citizens certainly isn’t my idea of good news coverage. Although the meetings are open to the public it seems to me that there are items on the agenda that are not for public dissemination. Certainly not in the detail that was published in your November 9, 1972 issue of the Rappahannock News. Concerned Citizen Editor’s note — Because we agree that such matters are “eonfidential,” no names are used in reporting on welfare requests. However, we also think the public is entitled to know how their money is being appropriated, and under what circumstances; fhe trick is to strike the proper balance. □

T H C L I T T L E F 0 X PANTHER TALES by Susan Latham Well, they did it again! The cross country team of RCHS captured the state championship title for the second time in as many years, the only two years they have been competing. Charlie Thomas came in first in the Division A and AA schools, beating Mike Hariston, his closest rival. I can’t imagine how Charlie felt standing at the head of a line of several hundred boys, knowing that HE was the best. The cheerleaders had a pep rally for the runners Friday afternoon before they left for Williamsburg and the state competition Saturday. They did several cheers, skits and shouts which were well received by the school. Some of the boys told me they really appreciated the attention given them and thanked the cheerleaders profusely. The cheerleaders are Angela Dennis, Cil Davis, Mary Moore Kilby, Cheryl Poling, Wendy Brown and Susan Latham. Nancy Jones ia an alternate. If you see any of these girls very excited, it’s because part of their uniforms have arrived and they’re eagerly- awaiting the rest and the basketball season which is soon to come. Pictures have been taken and have arrived, but if the rest of you look as funny as I do in mine, heaven help us all! The Juniors will soon be busy selling candy for funds to finance the prom. We urge you to support us so it will be the success we expect it to be. If you would like to buy some candy just get in touch with any Junior and they will take care of things.

I was not close enough to hear the conversation, but suddenly one said: “I hate you!” The other replied: ‘‘That is your probleum, you will have to live with it.” Whether it was a proble-um or a problem of the hater, it gave me food for thought. How much energy is expended in feeding the fires of hate, is it more easy to hate than to love? Recently our paster took his text from the First Letter of John in which the writer says that one who loves his brother is in the light, that one who hates his brother is in darkness; that there are no shadings of grays in between. Can that be true? Are there not variations of love, do we have to love or hate? God forbid. I know some people that I might love in an abstract way, I wish them well but I rather love them from a distance. This thought just occurred to me, if you must love or hate, could you use a negative approach and say to a friend: “I don’t hate you.” THIS QUOTE IS BY A Mr. Fletcher: “The true opposite of love is not hate but indifference. Hate, bad as it is, at least treats the neighbor as a YOU, whereas indifference turns the neighbor into a thing. This is why we may say that there is actually one thing worse than evil itself, and that is indifference to evil. In human relations the lowest point, as far as Christian ethics is concerned, is manifest in the phrase, ‘I couldn’t care less’.” So, since hate and indifference are taboo, as far as Christians are concerned, let us work at the alternative. It might be hard to do in some instances, but oh the joy and peace you will know when you realize you are obeying the Master’s command, that you LOVE ONE ANOTHER.

Mrs. Virginia Miller, left, talks with James J. Kilpatrick after he spoke at Rappahannock Library Monday. With them are Mrs. Mary Jamieson and Greg Pierson, right. Kilpatrick assesses elections (From page 1 to the people, indeed, helped turn the people off. HIS SECOND POSTULATE STATED that people can be moved “on a human scale.” He cited Kennedy’s incident with the late Mary Joe Capeckne as causing him not to run. He said the people would have remembered that incident and they would have had doubt about Kennedy. The second human issue that he said affected this campaign was McGovern’s handling of the Eagleton affiar, which left McGovern in a “credibility crisis.” The third postulate held that the incumbent will be* elected in good times. He said that in a “brisk or boon year” the incumbent will always be elected. This has happened since 1828. The people tend to vote their pocketbooks, he said. The fourth postulate says that the American voter tends to be at best illogical and hypocritical at worst. He cited Virginia politics as an example of illogicality. People tend to vote for the man he said; even with Nixon’s landslide, he was shocked to see the GOP lose two seats in the Senate and only gain 13 in the House. THE FIFTH POSTULATE STATED that .the people are only stimulated by their concern for their own well-being. He cited McGovern’s “leftward” image as turning people off, with his tax program and his welfare program. Certain blue collar workers got the impression McGovern would not allow them to leave anything to their children and they certainly did not want to see McGovern give $1,000 to everybody, Kilpatrick said. He also said the Watergate issue only attracted laughs from the crowds. He said that the “worst is yet come” out of the Watergate mess. HIS SIXTH POSTULATE SAID that “all things equal, the incumbent will have a 20% advantage” in the election, assuming he has not committed a felony. An example of this was the fact that Nixon had 100% “identification” with the electorate whereas McGovern had 12% identification with the electorate, before the primaries began. The seventh postulate stated that the opposition must exploit the incumbent’s weaknesses on the campaign trail. In this case Kilpatrick said McGovern fail ed to exploit Nixon’s “bad temper.” Another weakness of Nixon, according to Kilpatrick, is Nixon’s poor campaigning on the trail; his aides kept him off the trail for the most part. He also cited Scott’s victory in Virginia as example of good campaigning by connecting Spong, a man of “superior intellect,” to McGovern, thus dumping “this very able man from the Senate.” The eighth postulate says that there must be a plateau where the electorate can “catch its breath.” He cited the Eisenhower years as an example of this, where little social change came about but everybody was happy. “The Happiest hours of mankind are those on the blank pages of history books,” Kilpatrick said. According to him McGovern just came along at the wrong time when the country wanted to relax after the social change of the Kennedy-Johnson years and to some extent the early Nixon years. HflS NINTH AND LAST POSTULATE stated that the party system in America is diminishing. He cited this election as a victory for Nixon as the president but a loss for him in Congress. After stating his postulates, Kilpatrick answered questions which varied from campaigiA spending to “who will be the candidates in 1976.” Kilpatrick said he thought Kennedy would be the logical choice right now for 1976 and Agnew or Connally for the Republicans. He indicated that Agnew had “certain problems” which he had to overcome whereas Connally did not have those same problems. He said that spending in the campaign was “outrageous” and something had to be done about it. He said he was impressed with the British system where campaigning can only last for three weeks, and where TV ads may not be purchased. Instead, the BBC allots equal time to each candidate. On other questions, he thought that Wallace was the shrewdest campaigner of the primaries, directing himself to the welfare issue and busing. He feels that if Wallace had a better organization, and had not been shot, he might have proved a real threat. Near the end of the questioning, Kilpatrick said one of the disappointments was that less that 60% of the eligible voters actually voted. He called this “pathetic.” — Douglas Lees □ ANNUAL HARVEST SUPPER Saturday/ November 18 At the old Forest Grove School Building Beginning at 5 p.m. Benefit Forest Grove Baptist Church Adult and Carry Out Dinners $2.50 Children $1.25 NO HUNTING Because of problems created by irresponsible hunters, we, the undersigned landowners, give notice that NO HUNTING OR TRESPASSING will be permitted on our property located on Routes 600 and 681, Known as Jenkins Hollow.

To be counted the ballots must be marked and returned to the County ASCS Office by Checking stations listed for hunters IRVIN L. KENYON, GAME WARDEN for Rappahannock County, has announced the names and locations of the bear-deer-turkey checking stations for the 1972-73 hunting season. The warden emphasized that state law requires each hunter who kills a bear, deer or turkey must detach the appropriate tab from his bear-deer-turkey license and attach it to the kill before moving it from the place of kill. He must then immediately take the kill to an official checking station where the license tab will be exchanged for an official game tag. Checking stations in Rappahannock are Baldwin’s Grocery, Washington; Bradford’s Store, Flint Hill; Jenkins Esso, Amissville; Sperryville Esso, Sperry - ville; and Williams Grocery, Chester Gap. Kenyon also advised each hunter to take time make a complete review of the 1972-73 Summary Virginia Game Laws.

KENNETH ROBINSON 7th district, Virginia Charlie Thomas has had a short but brilliant career in high school cross country with the RCHS Panthers. In the two years of participation, he has won numerous first and set a variety of records with the unbelievable ease of a veteran. His quality performance and sportsmanship is enviable and in addition to the high esteem in which he is held by fellow students, he has captured the respect of those from area schools. A class by himself WHEN YOU HEAR THE WORD “athlete,” somehow you think of physical power and skill. The real meaning has a lot more to do with the mind and spirit that controls that physical tool called a body. Sports^ provide a great testing ground for this control, a place where a person can go looking for his limits and, sooner or later, find them. Charlie Thomas is in his last year at Rappahannock County High School. For two years he has been running, alone and with others, striving for speed and the limits of his desires and abilities. Every time he thought that he had found those limits, they increased and he grew better at his sport. These that knew him well — his teammates and his coach — have seen him grow from a quiet, almost shy boy that no one knew, into a still quiet but confident, dedicated and ambitious young man. Through his own efforts, -guided by his fine coach, he has tried to reach his athletic potential. He hasn’t quite found those limits yet. Instead, whether he knows it or not, he has found a secret. The more he tries, the more he can do. Charles Thomas has run a lot of races for Rappahannock and for himself. And when his last cross country race ended, there was Charlie, like so many other times, running strong, out in front, in a class by himself. — Roger Flinchum □ %tzz\ JFuneral ^Iarlarj H.C.

VIRGINIA II7A BIT MAIN tnitT » t» 1777 NOW THROUGH TUESDAY Evenings at 7 and 9 p.m. Matinees Saturday-Sunday at 2 p.m. County runners tops in the state (From page 1 over the old record that he set last year! For comparison, the AA class record is 12:18:00 (AA schools are quite a bit larger than A schools). The AAA class record is 12:03.6 AAA class record is 12:03.6 and was set by a runner that Thomas defeated earlier this year at the V.P.I. Invitational Meet. There is no doubt that Charles Thomas is not just good; he may well be the finest high school distance runner in the state. ALTHOUGH THOMAS overshadows his teammates in the scorebooks, he does have an age advantage of one year. He is the only senior on the squad. Bill Taylor is a brilliant sophomore who ran several races this year in quicker times than Thomas had as a junior. Brother Tom Taylor and smooth-running John Summers turned out to be the third and fourth best runners in their class, which isn’t bad when numbers one and two are your teammates. They also have beaten some of Charlie\r times of last year. Ronnie Nicholson is running number five on the team in his first year and just might hold a state title himself in a few years. Bob Titchenell, Morris Donaldson, Earl Lilly, Carol and Clifton Jenkins, Andy Nichols and Kevin Raney all ran well for the Panthers this year and all have years to run. ’ And there seems to be a red-headed eighth grader Pancake supper A Pancake Supper scheduled for Friday, November 24, is being planned by the Rappahannock Lions Club and will benefit the local high school athletic program.

BUT THERE is another part of this team’s story that only a few people know. Any running sport requires stamina and dedication, but cross country requires more than the others. This team, to a man, has shown all the dedication anyone could ask. They have run thousands of miles in the past two years. No one knows how many because they don’t talk about things like that. The fruits of all that labor isn’t just two state championships. The real reward is what being on the team has done for the in dividuals. They aren’t just fine athletes — they are modest, unassuming andabout as pleasant a group of young men as you’ll find, never asking for anything but grateful for everything people do for them. MONDAY AFTERNOON — the first school day after winning the championship — Coach John Toth was called to the teacher’s lounge door. When he returned, he explained that Tom Taylor had come by to see if practice was to be held that afternoon for next year’s team. They are something special. There must be a better word — but sorrtehow I can’t seem to find it. □ SALESMEN ARE TRAINED NOT BORN We have proven this through 40 years of successful experience.
