w* STATE LIBHART * C Volume XXIV, Number S3 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA o THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1973 FIFTEEN CENTS Rappahannock dogs NOV 9 m Supervisors consider raising fees, RAPPAHANNOCK County's Supervisors are going to try again something which they were unable to accomplish a year ago—put the county’s Dog Fund on a break-even basis. Claims for livestock slain by dogs are paid from a fund created by dog license fees, but the claims in Rappahannock are running six month ahead of the fund. In other words, only enough funds were collected by the existing fee schedule for dog licenses ta pay claims, and the dog warden’ s salary and expenses, up through July. A sort of official lOU has been issued-. to all claimants since the fund was exhausted. Furthermore, Dog Warden Jack Bruce hasn’t been paid since last March. His salary is $200 a month. A PROPOSAL to increase dog license fees was approved for a December hearing, when the Supervisors met November 1. The hearing will be held on a proposal to : raise dog license fees to $3 for male dogs, $3 for “unsexed” Godwin favorite Election in Rappahannock turned out about as in all other sections of the State; Godwin winning with a small margin in the Governor’s race; Dalton taking the office of Lt. Governor; Miller sliding in with an easy victory in his race to retain the office of Attorney General. D. French Slaughter Jr., incumbent for the House of Delegate’s seat in the Twenty Fifth District, held a very wide margin over his opponent for reelection. In the county election, Mrs. Frances Foster had no opposition for the position of Treasurer and polled a total of 1092 votgs. A table of unofficial results may be found elsewhere in this paper. □ female dogs, $5 for female dogs, $5 on male German Shepherds, $10 on female German Shepherds, $30 for kennels of up to 25 dogs, and $50 for kennels of up to 50 dogs. Current fees are $1 for males, $1 for unsexed females, $3 for females, and $5 and $10 for German Shepherds. Kennel fees are $15 and $20. The decision to hold a hearing on raising the fees was reached after a hour of discussion. Last year, the discussions went on even longer, and then the Supervisors declined to raise the fees after several Supervisors confessed that they had received an avalanche of telephone calls and personal objection. A gallery of silent but, nevertheless, eloquent dog owners, appeared at the hearing a year ago to demonstrate their objections to raising the dog fees, and they left with nary a word—but smiles of satisfaction—when the fees were kept as they were, even though a six-month deficit on dog claims and dog warden expenses also prevailed at that time. THE ISSUE was reopened last Thursday by the newest member of the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors, Col. E. P. (Pete) Luke. (He was appointed when Mrs. Betty Coates resigned to accept a teaching position in the Fauquier School System.) Warden Jack Bruce had just appeared to discuss some possible claims. Bruce said he and the claimants agreed that a bear had probably killed a calf and some sheep. “The calf had been dragged sideways on the mountain, and they could see that no dog could have done that,” reported Bruce. All of the Supervisors listened to this without comment, but Luke brought up the question of when Bruce had last been paid. Not since last March, it was stated. Luke wondered why it wouldn’t be wise to raise the dog tag fees to cover such things as the warden’s salary, and dog claims. “At the end of next year, we’ll be a year behind,’’ agreed Chairman Newbill Miller. “But the claims are caught up now,’’ interjected Clerk E.M. Jones.Luke was glad to hear that, but he thought “we might want to consider paying our employee’’ first, and “write a letter to dog fund claimants’’ explaining that they’d be paid when funds were available. Commonwealth’s Attorney George Davis agreed that “salaries should come first.’’ So did Miller. “We’ve got to put the program on a paying basis,” said he. “We haven’t raised the dog tag in 50 years and everything else has been going up,” observed Pete Luke. “It’s bad policy to let a man go six months without salary. We ought to pay our way. I’d like to open up this for discussion.” BY WAY of openers, Luke suggested raising the dog tag fees to $2 for males, $2 for unsexecf females, $4 for females, and $6 and $11 for German Shepherds. “If people dearly love dogs, I don’t see how they can object,” said Luke. “If Alpo goes up 15 cents a can, they’ll still buy it.” Supervisor J. R. Latham worried that Luke’s suggested raises wouldn’t be enough to get the Dog Fund out of the red, and meet upcoming expenses. So did George Davis. Supervisor Herbert Foster wasn’t sure; he thought the dog claims might be running under that of a few months ago. ‘‘Maybe that’s . because the Dog Warden is picking up more strays,” suggested Latham. Newbill Miller indicated he remembered both the economics and the politics of the issue last year. “Last year we proposed raising the fees to $3,$5, $30 and $50. I’m not saying it’s a good idea; I’m just saying what we proposed last year. Foster thought that instead of raising the fees, the deficit might be better met by Dog Warden Bruce “bringing more people into court. A whole lot pf people don’t have any tags,” he said. “Over in our section, they claim there’s a lot of them.” REPLIED JBruce; “I hear that rumor from my friends, too. If I had 30 dog wardens, and visited every home in the county, I’d still hear it.” Explaining that he intended no ill feeling and did not mean to start an argument, Bruce went on to say that he had visited Foster’s home on two recent occasions and “your two little dogs came out to meet me, and they had no collar and no tags.” Bruce said he knew these dogs have tags, but they weren’t displayed. “These are littleol’ dogs Rappahannock County High School’s Cross Country team took the district championship in a meet held Saturday at Stonewall Jackson High with a score of 16. A perfect score is 15. The Panther harriers had the first four individual places and soots 6 7 and 8. A Montivevideo runner placed fifth in the meet. The local team is composed of Bill Taylor, Captain and Coach John Toth, holding trophy; back row, John Summers, Ronnie Nicholson, Harry Jordan, Earl Lilly, Tom Taylor and Jerry Thomas.

Entered as Second Class Mail at the Post Office in Washington, Virginia. Subscriptions (in advance) $4 in Rappahannock and adjacent counties; $5 in Postal Zones 5 thru 8. MRS. SARAH C. LATJ1AM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 Costly slopppiness RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY has arranged a convehient and effective trash collection and disposal system that needs only one more important ingredient to be the success it should be. That ingredient: Citizen co-operation. Last month, the county was charged an extra' $700, on top of the regular monthly charge of $1,800, because so much extra trash had to be picked up at the dump sites, which are located conveniently around the county. Seven hundred dollars extra! To clean up people’s messes! Some of the mess is undoubtedly caused by “foreigners”; the Sheriff’s Department and the trash collection-company can document cases of trash-hauling interlopers from Culpeper and Front Royal. But a whole lot of the mess, we’re afraid, is caused by Rappahannock residents. People are sloppy . Some people will drive up a pickup truck full of trash and simply dump it bn the ground. It’s easier that way, we suppose. BUT IT SURE ISN’T EASIER on the pocketbook. Those careless and messy trash dumpers are having to pay for the basic and extra charges, too. The only thing wrong with that is that the people who are careful and considerate also wind up paying more, not to mention suffering the eyesores that are created. If you don’t care what it looks like, at least consider the extra money. Otherwise, keep up the present trend and you can bet a carton of empty beer cans that taxes will go up.D RAPP CHATS By RAP OWINGS Extension Agent TAX MANAGEMENT WORKSHOP—Farmers have a number of options still open to reduce 1973 income tax payments if they act before the first of next year. A special program developed for Rappahannock County farmers to help reduce their tax bill will be presented by Bruce Little, Area Farm Management Specialist, next Tuesday, November 13, at 1 p.m. at the Episcopal Parish Hall, Washington, Va. Tax management is not concerned only with reducing taxes. If decisions are made and business transacted only in an effort to reduce tax, net income after taxes may actually, be lower. Frequently, there is no conflict between a wise tax decision and a good farm business decision. This session should be useful in helping you make the right decisions between now and the end of the year.C H.C. Bailey correctly identified the barn last week as that of Emerson Smith on Route 211 west of Amissville. He will receive a free subscription to the Rappahannock News for one year. His was the only correct entry. Try this one. Mail replies to Rappahannock News, Box 38, Washington, Va. 22747. Letter to the Editor Conservation awards Editor: We have read with interest and some concern the editorial in the Rappahannock News of October 25, 1973, about the conservation Awards Banquet. We are concerned that we apparently have not adequately explained the procedure which we adopted for making the awards. The awards committee recommended and the Board adopted ten categories for which awards would be made. They are: 1. Farmers and Landowners, 2. Developers, 3. Contractors, 4. Educators and Teachers, 5. Technical and Professional people deal-' ing with Natural Resources, 6. Architects, 7. News Reporters and Broadcasters, 8. Industralists, 9. Youth Organizations, and 10. Civic Organizations. The members of the board and all other interested persons* were invited to make nominations for any or all of these categories. The District Judging Committee then selected the outstanding nominees to be given the awards. Under such a procedure it is of course possible that more than one award will be given in a county and that none might be given in some other county. Two nominations were made from Rappahannock County but another nominee in the category was selected by the committee. PANTHER TALES The Rappahannock Cross Country Team participated in the district meet Saturday and brought back the title of Skyline District Champions. The Panthers took first place with score of 16; Montevideo had a score of 54; Central 94; Stonewall Jackson 92 and William Monroe 118. Fifteen is a perfect score. Bill Taylor placed first and set a new course record of 12:20. John Summers, derry Thomas and Ronnie Nicholson placed 2nd, 3rd and 4th. Salyards of Montevideo placed 5th and Earl Lilly, Harry Jordan and Tom Taylor were, 6th, 7th and 8th, respectively. We feel the Cross Country Team and Coach Toth deserve much credit for the efforts which they put forth to become the “Number 1 team.” The state meet is scheduled for this Saturday at Williamsburg beginning at 11 a.m. Competition in our class will be Parry McClure, of Beuna Vista. Earlier in the season we defeated them 24-34, but I am sure they have come a long way since then. A steering committee for the development of a Youth and a Community Center The adoption of this new method of making selections for awards winners broadens the field from which nominations may be made but does not reflect in any way directly or by inference, upon the quality of performance or suitability of past recipients of the awards. They were all indeed outstanding conserves of our limited natural resources. Thank you for your interest in the cause of conservation and your willingness to help us in getting the message to all your readers. Joe P. McMurran Chairman, Culpeper Soil & Water Conservation District By DONNA CANNON have given out preliminary surveys to determine student interest. They have had two meetings and a further survey will be held this' week. Interested citizens should watch the newspaper for more details. The annual staff offers their congratulations to the Juniors for winning the patron ad competition and to all who contributed or participated. □

H E L I T T L E F 0 X Hunting season information listed By Irvin L. Kenyon Jr., Game Warden THE GENERAL hunting season for all small game, . plus turkey and bear opens this Monday, November 12, 1973. As last year, deer season will open one week later, on November 19. These openings are pretty well uniform throughout the state. The old east-west of the Blue Ridge line has been done away with as far as opening day is concerned. While opening dates are uniform, closings are not and the Blue Ridge line is still involved. Grouse and quail have the longest season; November 12, 1973 through February 15, 1974. Squirrel and rabbit November 12 through Ordinance copies COPIES OF THE COUNTY’S new subdivision and zoning ordinances are on sale at the County Treasurer’s office for $2 a copy. One hundred copies of each document were printed, and the $2 per copy cost was estimated as just about enough to meet printing costs, Commonwealth’s Attorney ,peorgq, Pavis reported at last Thursday’s meeting of the Board of Supervisors. If additional copies are needed, the per copy cost might be cheaper, Davis added. □ Teachers attend meeting * THREE representatives of the Rappahannock County Education Association attended the 1973 Virginia Education Association Convention last week in Richmond. Members of the Rappahannock Delegation were George Graham, president of the local association; Bill Harrison, presidentelect, and Buddy Carter, vice-principal. The VEA Delegate Assembly ' went on record strongly in favor of the “concept of unification.” This means, pending a November referendum involving all members of the VEA, that in the future teachers who belong to VEA will also belong to the National Education Association. Dr. Helen Wise, president of NEA, appeared before the 2000-teacher assembly. She spoke out against federal cuts in education programs while at the same time increasing military spending. Also speaking to the assembly were Mills Godwin and Henry Howell, each focusing on the proposals in their platforms that had to do with education programs. □ SHOOTING MATCH Beginning Friday, November 2 Every Friday Night until further notice 12 & 16 ga. guns.

This can be done by sending a portion of the jaw of the bear to the Commission. Envelopes and instructions are available at all checking stations. ALSO MANY bear have been tagged this past summer. The return of these tags, found in the ears, is of great importance to the bear study.

# EXTRA TRASH which either spilled over onto the ground, or which was just dumped there in the first place, cost Rappahannock county an extra $700 in collection costs last month. That’s $700 over the monthly contract of $1,850,' said Supervisor E.P. (Pete) Luke, who reported the “bad news.” The county’s contract with the Community Trash Company contain^ a formula for charges on picking up the overspill. “Flint Hill was just terrible,”— said Chairman Newbill Miller. “Mrs. (John) Updike (of the trash company) was hopping mad —somebody brought in a Volks wagon that had been cut into three pieces, and just dumped it there. She said some pickup trucks are coming in and just dumping trash on the ground.” To make things worse, added Miller, it was ascertained that the cut-up VW had been brought all die way. from Culpeper. Mil* ler said he had also visited the dumping center near Huntly, and that it was also pretty bad. “DO WE have any teeth in this ordinance?” he asked. Sheriff John Walker Jenkins said the ordinance stipulated that the trash dump centers have to be for county people. “The brazeness of it startles me,” commented Miller. “Here it is costing the people $700 over the contract, and the people just don’t seem to give a damn,” added Pete Luke. “Give the sheriff ten more deputies and he could take care of it,” said Commonwealth ’ s Attorney George Davis. Sheriff Jenkins agreed that it was a difficult problem. “Never a day goes The Rappahannock Womans Club presented the local elementary school a check for $1,0(W, proceeds from the fall fashion show held m September by the ladies.

You can reduce their volume to 30 per cent of what it is by just mashing them. That’s a lot of air we’re paying for.” “IT’S THE most I’ve ever seen on the ground at Huntly,” said Newbill Miller. “The trash company is doing a good job of picking up and cleaning the place, but...” “...It’s people livinglike a bunch of pigs,” said Luke, finishing the sentence. Supervisor Herbert Foster decried the extra cost involved. Davis suggested taking the dumps off main thoroughfares, and Sheriff Jenkins agreed that since the site had been moved back at Scrabble, the situation had improved. AS A FINAL trash collection note. Clerk E.M. Jones reported that a state health department official had told him the “ while it is notmandatroy, it would be good public relations to attempt to poison the rats at the old dump.” The Supervisors voted to spend $30 to purchase poison, which will be applied to scraps of apple, and spread around the dump area. Jones said he had been told that dogs and cats would not touch the stuff. □ IN MEMORIUM In memory of Irvin Oswald Gatewood (Uncle Billy)- ly)Rest on Uncle Billy, because we have no fear Deep in our hearts we know you’ll always be near.

RAPPAHANNOCK'S Supervisors have agreed to a Fauquier - Rappahannock juvenile and domestic court “service staff,” a district probationary setup that may also include Loudoun County. Fauquier County has already approved the joint operation, which was made possible by new state regulations. Up until now, Rappahannock has had no probationary service, Fauquier has had a single officer and a secretary, while Loudoun’s organization is more elaborate. Rappahannock Ihas noth ing to lose and everything to gain by the new arrangement, Judge William F. Moffett Jr. told the Supervisors at their meeting last Thursday. The state will pay the salaries of all officials involved, with the counties expected only to provide office space and a certain amount of office supplies. Because Rappahannock’s case load “is not too great,” Judge Moffett said, having a single office in Fauquier County may be sufficient, at least for the time'being. Bobby and Wesley Jenkins hold a gladiolus which Mrs. John;Updike picked in her flower garden Friday. It was a large perfect blossom which bloomed unseasonably late.< Other horticultural oddities include hydrangas beginning to bloom again and a few weeks ago pear trees were bearing fruit and blossoms at the same time and Everett Estes reported his cherry tree in bloom again.

Ft. Bag Pine Bark Mulch Give Nature A Helping Hat tUNMREESiSHRUBS JUDGE MOFFETT’S presentation ran into an initial flurry of criticism, directed not so much at the program as at the handling of juvenile crime in general. Supervisor Herbert Foster was of the opinion that “if they’d revise some of the laws on juveniles, we wouldn’t have all these problems. The laws are too loose on these juveniles!” ‘ ‘That may well be true, ” Judge Moffett replied. “But it really has got nothing to do with this request.” “We’ve got no law. You can’t do anything with them when you get them up,” Foster persisted. “I get maybe 15 to 20 cases a month here. There may be that many every day in Fauquier or Loudoun,” said Judge Moffett. “I’m inclined to agree with you, but you’ll have to go to the local legislation representative to seek changes in the General Assembly if you want the laws changed.” COMMONWEALTH’S Attorney George Davis commented from his end of the table: “I see that a federal commission is even recommending against building jails. They say its bad to put people in jails.” Chairman Newbill Miller tried to get the meeting back on the track. “We’re getting far afield here... putting him through the mill,” he said. Supervisor Pete Luke then made a motion that (jtfiKMf Place Your Trust In Experience Our reputation is built on understanding and integrity. Every wish of the family is taken into consideration.

PRIVATE AMBULANCE CEMETERY MEMORIAL W) RmB Calpcptr, V«, MS4JM Rappahannock approve the district arrangement tor the juvenile and domestic court “service staff.” Commented Judge Moffett: “If I put a juvenile on probation now, I’ve got nobody to supervise the probation—except maybe someone in the welfare department, and we want to get away from that. They’ve got three probation officers in Loudoun and they’ll soon have two in Fauquier. I can envision the central district office eventually being located in Fauquier, and we’ll benefit from all of this.” “AS IT is now, the only thing we can do is turn them loose,” added George Davis. Herbert Foster finally . seconded Luke’s motion, and it passed unanimously. Mrs. Frances Thornton appeared to ask that her name be withdrawn as a member of the Chapter X Regional Mental Health Council. She felt that since she was involved in this work professionally, it would be better to have a non-professional sit on the council. “They asked specifically that you be named so they would have professional representation said Newbill Miller. “You’re kidding!" said Mrs. Thornton. Miller assured her he was . not, so Mrs. Thornton reconsidered. “Okay, then,” she said. A LETTER WAS read from the office of Ben For-, berg, state financial officer, regarding the upcoming reassessment in Rappahannock County. It seemed that the sate people want the county to buy a letter-size filing cabinet to handle new, bigger cards containing assessment information. Presently, such information is marked down on five by seven cards. Said Newbill Miller: “In the Clerk’s office we’ve tried to reduce the size of all the forms and files, because of space problems, and here they want to increase the size of something.” All agreed that they would make do with the old card size. “I move we stick with what we’ve got,” said Supervisor Luke. The vote was unanimous.□ The No.1 Chain Saw Buy r A winter supply of firewood (Homelit^150 Automatic Chain Saw Automatic oiling for bar and cutting chainstandard equipment.

Immunization’s importance is emphasized HEALTH authorities are concerned that the percentage of young children who have been protected against such diseases as polio and measles is declining, posing the potential threat of epidemics. An intensive campaign aimed at finding unimmun,-4zed pre-school age children and motivating their parents to seek immediate medical attention has begun. A number of public and private health agencies, voluntary service groups, pharmaceutical firms and the Center for Disease Control have joined forces to carry out the program. In discussing which immunizations young children should receive, Dr. Mack I. -Shanholtz, Virginia’s Health Commissioner, gives top priority to six . diseases—polio, measles, German measles (rubella), diphteria, tetanus and pertussis(whooping cough). Virginia law requires those entering school to be immunized against these diseases. Dr. Shanholtz said many parents wait until their children are approaching school age to get their immunizations. As a result many children four years of age and under are susceptible to the diseases. If an epidemic were to start, it could spread quickly through this age group, with possible devastating results to its young victims. ACCORDING to the State Health Department’s Bureau of Epidemiology, the first dose for polio should be given orally at two months of age, the second at four months and a third at 15 months. Some auth-' orities recommend an additional dose at six months. A booster dose is recommended upon entering school or at four-six years HUNTLY By BESSIE M.

I shall do my best to effectively serve them as their representative in the House of Delegates. \ . D. French Slaughter, Jr. of age. In 1955, the year polio vaccine was intro- ° duced, there were 30,000 reported cases of the disease in the U.S. With widespread use of the vaccine, that number dropped below 1,000 in 1961. Last year, only 17 cases of polio were reported in this country. Virginia recorded only one case. A combination vaccine is given for diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (DPT). The initial dose is given at two months, followed by additional doses at foursix and 15-18 months, with a booster at four- six years. Children can be immunized against measles and German measles with-one injection of a combination vaccine or as two separate injections. Youngsters should be immunized ag ainst these two diseases shortly after their first birthday. POLIO, a disease of the central nervous system, has struck in a series of epidemics over the years, the last during the 1950’s taking thousands of lives and leaving thousands more permanently paralyzed. Measles, which many people regard as a mild disease, can cause such serious complications as pneumonia, hearing disorders and brain damage. Before a vaccine was available, hundreds of children died each year from measles complications. German measles, on the other hand, usually isn’t serious in children, but often causes birth defects and infant death when con tracted by women in the first three months of pregnancy. The vaccine is recommended for children because they are the primary carriers of the disease. Diphtheria, which used to be a common cause of childhood deaths, attacks the throat and nasal passages, developing a membrane that obstructs breathing. Tetanus, or lockjaw, is fatal in about half of the people who get it. It is caused by contaminated dirt getting into wounds. Pertussis is frequently fatal in babies, but less serious in older children and adults. He recommended that children be immunized as early as possible and warned against waiting until they are ready for school.□ iY**r Southern States Get-the-Jumpon-winter VALUES Save on Unico Redi-Grip Snow & Mud Tires SliA NOW ONLY*17.49 Polyester or Nylon cord plot $1.83 Fed. tax 560-15blackwall..

Fall road hazard INEXPERIENCED woodsmen aren’t the only dangers facing hunters when deer season opens November 19. Early morning driving and frightened animals can create problems too, notes John T. Hanna, director, Highway Safety Division of Virginia. “Most hunters leave home early in the morning to get a head start,’’Hanna said. “This allows more hunting time, but sometimes puts motorists behind the wheel before ‘they are fully awake and alert.” To combat early morning grogginess, Hanna suggests a good night’s sleep. Hunters who leave before dawn should be aware that driving with headlights on * is required by law from half hour after sunset to half hour before sunrise. Headlights not only increase the driver’s visi bility but make his car more visible to other motorists. FRIGHTENED animals pose another problem for hunters. “Wild animals” actions are unpredictable. An animal distrubed by a hunting party is more likely to leave the protection of the woods. “Alert drivers must watch for confused animals on the highways as well as other motorists. ”C CHURCH NOTICE The fellowship supper at Reynolds Memorial Baptist Church is scheduled for November 14 at 6:30 p.m. The Susan Wood Circle of the church will meet Thursday, November 15 at 1:30 p.m. at the church.□ FBLA fund drive THE PIEDMONT Technical Education * Center Chapter of the Future Business Leaders of America will sponsor a state project during November.

He also concurred in the need for the most simple and least expensive solution to the sewer problem. Dr. LeGarde said both the County and District Health Departments would work closely with the local citizens organization and that the State Water Control Board would cooperate. THE DOCTOR stated that his department had already checked Sperryville businesses for sewage discharge into the Thornton River, and had checked their water supply for contamination. The next group to be checked will be the residences of Sperryville. After a brief discussion period, the citizens formed an organization to be called the Sperryville Community Group, with the following officers: Bill Kilby, chairman; Wilson Burke, vice chairman; Mrs. Betty Thompson, secretary-treasurer; Maurie Biddle, a local attorney, agreed to serve as legal counsel for the new Community Group. Biddle was formerly head of the legal division of the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission, which operates the sewer and water systems for Montgomery and Prince Georges Counties in Maryland. SUPERVISOR Luke will also meet with the community group to help them. All the citizens of Sperryville should contact one of the officers of this new organization in order that they might join and participate in the planning for the sewer project. □ BAKE SALE A bake sale sponsored by the Girls Track Team of Rappahannock County High School will be held this weekend in the following locations and days: November 10,10a.m.atthe A & P Store in Front Royal, H 11 a.m. at the Safeway in Warrenton; November 11, 11 a.m. at Sperryville Emporium, noon at Washington Country Store. 0 MOYERS MOTOR CO., INC.

Rappahannock may raise dog fees around the house,” protested Foster, pointing out that he had, indeed, purchased tags, even though the dogs had no collars and therefore did not display them. ‘‘They're not big dogs,” he said. ‘‘But I do know of people with three or four big hunting dogs— have you checked them?” ' ‘‘How many dogs do you figure are in the county?” asked Jack Bruce. “We’ve got a lot more dogs now,” said Herbert Foster “I sold 1,180 tags,” said Bruce. Foster picked him up on the mathematics involved. ‘‘We had$500 in claims last year, and your salary went to $3,100 and something. It’s not my job to go around and find out how many dogs there are in the county, but it is the dog warden’s. I’m willing to pay for my couple of little dogs.” ‘‘People holler the same thing, but when you go to bed and sleep at night you don’t know where your dogs are,” said Bruce. He also claimed that under a predecessor, dog claims in the county ran to only about “one-fifth” of what they are now. Besides, “he got $55 a month; I get $200, but the cost of dogs is the same.” Concluded Bruce: “Let’s face, it. A~“dog*Ts nothing but a luxury. We’ve got to admit that.” “If you’ll go check, we’ll get some more revenue,” insisted Supervisor Herbert Foster. “I can’t see paying that much money for $500 worth of damages.” WHEN SUPERVISOR Luke indicated he, too, thought closer house-tohouse checks might uncover a lot of unlicensed dogs, Dog Warden Bruce countered: “All right—every dog owner I bring to court? Also every owner who doesn’t display the tag? Is that what you want?” “I’d say yes,” saidPete Liuite. When Commonwealth ’ s Attorney George Davis mentioned some legal difficulties, Jack Bruce elaborated: “You have no idea what you go through with. What about the 180 unsexed female licenses I sold? I believe we should have the owner produce a vet’s receipt or some other evidence showing that the dog has been spayed. I[ve had a number of cases like this where I’m confident the dog in question had never been spayed.” Added Bruce: “Many dog owners will just tell you anything.” Observed Chairman Newbill Miller: “When you start talking about dogs, you’re talking about family.”- ily.”The talk rambled on. There was speculation about how many tags sold were subsequently lost. There was talk about how people will deny ownership, saying so many dogs around their house are “strays.” There was talk about the possible hazard of putting collars on hunting dogs. “I’ve fox-hunted 40 years and run them with collars and nameplates ever since the deer came in, and 1 haven’t lost a dozen dog collars in years and years and years,” asserted Jack Bruce. NEWBILL MILLER attempted to bring things to a head by asking if the Board wanted to increase the cost of the tags. Supervisor H. B. Wood Jr. allowed that it was “something to study.” Wood said one of the things that might be studied was putting alimit on claims. What if dogs killed an expensive horse? he asked rhetorically. Foster and Latham agreed that setting safeguards against such an eventuality would be desirable. Miller noted that Mrs. David Fannon’s dogs had killed a foal “a couple of weeks ago. It was her dogs, but what if it hadn’t been?” (Commented Jack Bruce, to expressions of dismay over this news: “All of them (the dogs) are dead now.”) Miller ' prodded the board. “if we’re going to balance this fund, we’ve got to do something.” “I hate to raise taxes, but this should pay for itself,” said Supervisor Luke. So he made a motion for the higher fees. “If a person is not willing to pay $5 for a dog, he really doesn’t like dogs,” said George Davis, suggesting that Bruce’s suggestion for spaying certificate also be incorporated into the proposed new ordinance. Supervisor Latham seconded Luke’s motion, which was amended to incorporated Davis’s suggestion. IN REPLY to a „question from Foster,' Jack Bruce reported that currently dpg licenses in Rappahannock County are issued to 879 males, 243 females, 180 unsexed females, 101 German Shepherds males and unsexed females, and 14 German Shepherd females. John Barbour, speaking from the audience, expressed the opinion that “there When you start talking about dogs, youfre talking about family- newbillmiller are probably twice that many dogs in the county without tags.” “I think that’s an overstatement,” said Newbill Miller. “There are nowhere near 1,600 untagged dogs in Rappahannock County. There are dogs I know that were untagged which are tagged now.” The vote to hold the hearing on raising tags next month was unanimous. The county treasurer was also instructed to stop selling tags for next year until the question of the fee schedule is settled. But a motion by Latham to pay Bruce’s back salary out of general funds died. George - Davis was of the opinion that this couldn’t be done; that all dog costs had to be met out of the dog fund. “I don’t think I’d be in favor of that motion .even if we could do it,” commented Newbill Miller. □ SOME possible directions pending highway work might take in the Sperryville area were bounced off his fellow Supervisors at last week’s meeting of the Board by Supervisor E. P. (Pete) Luke. Luke recalled that at the previous month’s meeting a Highway Department official had noted that a constricting factor in their plans was the refusal of the National Park System to allow four-laning. of Route 211 through the Shenandoah Park. Because of this, Luke suggested that the road through Sperryville not be four-laned, but that the four-laning be stopped at North Fork, and the road through town merely “improved”—widened a bit and a curve here and there straightened out. Luke reasoned that if the road is four-laned up to the park and then stopped, a “bottleneck” would be created. ON THE other hand, if Sperryville is by-passed town businesses will suffer. “Those businesses have a lot of economic value to the county. We’d lose tax' revenue if they had to close.” The plan he proposed would “preserve business interests in Sperryville,” Luke argued. He also thought “the safety factor^ has been overplayed do some extent” by highway engineers. “Ac cidents have gone up even though the road system is supposed to have been improved,” he observed. Commonwealth’s Attorney George Davis disagreed that roads weren’t safer. “Accidents have doubled, but the use of the roads has tripled,” he said. Newbill Miller indicated he agreed with Davis on this point, but he said he also agreed with Luke about by-passing Sperryville. “PEOPLE DON’T need to go through Sperryville at 65 miles an hour,” Luke elaborated. Miller suggested that the Highway Department be informed of the proposal Luke had outlined. With an assurance that “I’m not for closing up Sperryville or for having the highways by-pass it,” Luke announced that he had called a meeting of town citizens for the following Monday night to talk about the problem—including the possibilities of a sewer system. (See the separate article.) “I intend to get this off dead center,” said Col. Luke, of the long-standing Sperryville sewer problem. “If you can get the citizens together,” suggested Newbill Miller, “the legal problems can be solved.” □ Hospital drive J. CARLTON CLORE has accepted the pace-setting gifts chairmanship of the Culpeper Memorial Hospital Development Fund. This preliminary phase of the drive will start immediately and is expected to conclude by the first of the year. Following the conclusion of the pace-setting gifts phase a goal will be set for the overall development fund that will be sought from the community. The entire development program will cost $4.5 million of which onesixth has been provided by a federal grant of$721,500. The remainder of needed funds is $3.6 million. “WE WANT to present the case as thoroughly as possible so that all residents of Culpeper and its environs will understand in detail why and what we are trying to do.” Clore is already engaged in organizing his committee. Solicitation will begin with the pace-setting gifts devision as well as with the members of the Board of Directors and the Medical Staff of the hospital. Major gifts and special gifts are expected to follow this first phase.□ ii NOW THRU TUESDAY Evenings at 7 & 9 p.m. Matinees Sat.-Sun 2 p.m. Last year it was - Q^> This year it* more ExcftNprfrm maam^ m ^am jam KraKatoa STARTS NEXT WED. “DAZZLING' —LIFi front Rova] FRI. -SAT. -SUN.
