Rappahannock News, June 6, 1974

Volume XXV, Number 31 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA • THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 1974 FIFTEEN CENTS Route 211 hearing is June 12 A PUBLIC hearing arranged by the Department of Highways to discuss proposed plans for rebuilding about eight miles of U.S. 211 in Rappahannock County — including the segment through Sperryville— will be held at 8 p.m. Wednesday, June 12, in the Sperryville Fire Hall. Proposals presented by the department at this hearing will not include the option of building a bypass around Sperryville on Route 211 which, when first advocated by the depa *tment drew intense opposition from a group of citizens. A public hearing on the location plans for construction on Route 211 in Sperryville was held in 1970. At this hearing, plans were presented for upgrading and widening the road on its existing location. No action came following this hearing. Then* in 1973, an official of the Department of Highways appeared before, the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors in response to a request for specific information concerning plans for improving Route 211.. AT THIS meeting it was revealed that plans had been drawn up for possible locations which might serve as bypasses of Sperryville. Improving the road on its existing location was still an alternative, it was stated. Early this year, the Sperryville Community Group asked for a meeting with representatives of the Department of Highways. The group, after being told there were different possible bypass routes south and north of town, expressed strong opposition to any bypass at all. “As a result, the department is responding to what is apparently the majority view, and plans to improve Route 211 through the town, if the project as presented Wednesday gains final approval,” said a departmental news release. THE PROJECT would begin west of Beech Spring in Shenandoah National Park and, preceeding easterly along the existing road, terminate at the western end of the Washington Bypass. Route 211 is designated as part of the state’s arterial network of highways, all of which are multilaned facilities. This project would consist of four lanes of pavement, with the new lanes being 12 feet wide and the existing lanes used wherever possible. Two lanes would serve eastbound traffic and two westbound traffic. The eastbound and westbound lanes would be separated by a grass median of varying width in areas other than Sperryville. In Sperryville, four 12-foot lanes would be developed with no median separator. Curb, gutter and sidewalks would be provided on both sides of the street. FOR THE benefit of interested citizens, representatives of the Highway Department will be in the Sperryville Fire Hall at 8 p.m. Tuesday (the night before the public hearing) to informally discuss questions concerning the proposed project. The Highway Department representatives will have available with them maps, drawings, an environmental study report and other related data for discussion and study. This material is available now at the department’s district office, located on U.S. 15 just south of the intersection with Virginia Route 3 in Culpeper; or at the residency office, located on Route 15 at the south corporate limits of Warrenton. Written statements and other exhibits relative to the proposed project may be presented in place of, or in addition to, oral statements at the public hearing. Such written statements and exhibits may also be submitted to the Department of Highways within 10 days after the public hearing. Relocation assistance programs, as well as tentative schedules for right-of-way acquistipn and construction, will be discussed at this public hearing. □ See map page 14 Katie Pendleton holds her trophy for most outstanding track participant in girls athletics at Rappahannock County High School, and Maureen Day displays her trophy which was awarded for the most outstanding field participant. Both girls had excellent records. With them, center, is physical education coach, Miss Ann Spieker. Local Recreation Assoc, open house at swim club THE RAPPAHANNOCK Recreation Association will hold an open house beginning at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, June 12, at the swimming pool of South Wales Golf Club. All residents of Rappahannock County are invited. The purpose of the open house is to bring county youth and adults together in an informal atmosphere to plan summer recreation activities, and to discuss methods of raising funds for the new Youth Center. South Wales is located east on Route 211 toward Warrenton; turn right at the blinker light on Route 229 and proceed for a quarter mile to the South Wales entrance. Bring a picnic supper and your bathing suit. There will be no charge for use of the pool or tennis courts. BOTH THE swimming poll and tennis courts at South Wales will be available throughout the summer to the youth of the Rappa hannock Recreation Association and to all other Rappahannock county residents on a special membership basis, under arrangements negotiated by Julian Brown and Roger Flinchum. Membership applications will be available at the open house. This activity is in response to the original Youth Center survey in which 97 percent of the students indicated that the form of recreation they most wanted was either swimming or tennis. Plans for the open house were discussed at a meeting of student and adult officers concerned with the Youth Center on June 3. at the Elementary School. Tom Metzinger, student president, reported on the results of the membership drive to date, and Granville Eastham, adult president, reported that a decision on the group’s application for a state grant of $18,000 is expected before the end of this month.□

LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington €75-3349 Elusive breakthroughs A CONTINUING faith in “technological breakthroughs,” when plain old common sense would do better, remains one of the abiding mysteries of those who seek to continue the mad pace of “growth” in the East Coast megalopolis, a statistical entity that —alas!— encompasses Northern Virginia and environs. Don’t worry, developers and State Water Control Board func - tionaries tell us, technology will find an answer to “waste water” treatment (“sewage” is a word that is too strong for these delicate souls), sludge disposal, air pollution, power transmis sion, highway congestion and the energy crisis. The engineers will save us if we’re good little boys and girls, and give them all the money they need and all the leeway they demand. No matter that the very air we breathe is growing increasingly foul—technology will find a way. Fret not that there isn’t enough land available to receive all of our “solid waste” (again, read “garbage,” you less sensitive readers). Do not despair that there isn’t even enough water to drink (not to mention not enough to flush out huge, sprawling, “super sewers”)! The engineers will save us, in whatever guise they choose to assume. TAKE THE little matter of water to drink, for example. No problem. The engineers who hang out at the U.S. Geological Survey say there is enough water in “underground rock formations” situated only 30 miles from Washington to solve that mighty city’s water demands. Why, they assure us, some 100 million gallons of water could be pumped out of aquifers in an area of Maryland not far from the Chesapeake Bay, enough to see Washington through any crisis. Isn’t that nice? Washington and surrounding “developed” areas are already threatening to pump the Potomac dry during every summer, but that’s all right—we’ll just sink some super wells around Maryland (and, maybe later, around Virginia) and take care of everything. v How long is the madness of such thinking to continue? At the same time that the U.S. Geological Survey “experts” were releasing the “technological breakthrough” news about Washington’s water supply, some of their brethren were telling a New York Times writer about grave groundwater conditions in other parts of the United States. Since World War n, the San Jacinto area near Houston, Tex., has sunk at least nine feet, because of heavy pumping of ground water in the area. In Savannah, Ga., and other coastal areas, heavy pumping of ground water has led to encroachment of salt water into aquifers; some geologists believe that once this process starts, it cannot be reversed. These are things that have and are happening; it is not theory, nor speculation; it is reality. Yet, a “planner” in the Corps of Engineers office in Baltimore exhorts Washingtonians to “stop kidding themselves” about the water crisis, and to start planning for ground water pumping. YES, INDEED. We should stop “kidding ourselves”—about our ability to abuse the capacities of our land, air and water forever, about our ability to “control” growth of the magnitude that has befouled so much of our beautiful America; about silly arguments which have little to do with basic realities that we are all facing—silly irrevelancies about a man’s right to foul his own nest when all of us may be running out of air to breathe, water to drink, and food to eat. It is easy to dismiss such concerns as “emotional” and “irrational,” as something contrary to that exalted goal which seems to be the quest of all “hard-nosed, realistic” and “practical” men—the “technological breakthroughs” which will enable us to continue being foolish and avoid paying the cost. It is not so easy to seek truly realistic solutions and to truly stop “kidding ourselves.” But like a cancer eating its way through a once healthy body, nothing can keep “growing” forever, without having to suffer the consequences.□ “Close-ups” The close-up photo last week was the key and ribbon guide on a typewriter.

Accidents reported THREE PEOPLE were slightly injured in a twovehicle collision on Route 522, a mile south of Flint Hill, Wednesday morning. Charles E. Stringfellow, his wife Virginia and their daughter Kimberly Ann were taken to Warren Memorial Hospital. According to Trooper G. F. Gregory, Stringfellow, operating a 1968 Chevrolet pickup, was attempting to pass another vehicle when a 1970 Ford station wagon, driven by Michael M. Sprinkel of Orange, pulled out to pass also. Charges are pending. Charles Stringfellow sustained a pulled neck muscle. Mrs. Stringfellow had abrasions and lacerations and the child sustained a lacerated forehead. Saturday produced several traffic mishaps in Rappahannock. At 5 p.m. on Route 612, three miles west of Sperryville, two cars were injured in a sideswiping accident. According to Trooper W.A. Buntin, Susan Gail Shade, driving a 73 Volkswagen, and John Newman Dodson, operating a 66 Chevrolet pickup met on the narrow dirt road and struck each other. The Shade car was damaged slightly and the truck was unharmed. There were, no injuries or charges. THE SAME day at 8:30 on Route 211, three miles west of Sperryville, a 1965 Mustang crashed into a tree. Thomas Eugene Frazier of Sperryville lost control of his vehicle, ran off the right of the road, veered back across the highway, ran off the left and struck a tree. According to Trooper Buntin, Frazier sustained broken ribs and lacerations of the face. He was admitted to Culpeper Memorial Hospital. The car was declared a .total loss and charges are pending. Another single-vehicle crash occured later Saturday on Route 211, between Washington and Sperryville. Bernard Kelly of Alexandria was not injured when his 1973 Ford pickup ran off. the left shoulder of the road and down an embankment. Damage was set at $75, and he was cited for reckSee Page 7

Spirited night polo games THE RAPPAHANNOCK Polo Club’s season opener Friday night (May 31) in the beautiful polo arena at C. W. Fannon Jr.’s Laurel Hill Farm near Laurel Mills was a hummer for four periods of allout bump-hit-run play. Although the long predicted rains washed out the last two of the scheduled six-period round robin— among Middleburg, Deep Run and Rappahannock—the rains didn’t wash out four periods of top speed excitement, efficiently controlled by one of the few real polo umpires in the Eastern part of the U.S.A. It was well he was there, since each of the nine players scheduled to play has a U. S. Polo Association handicap rating of one, two, or three goals, guaranteeing each is no slouch when it comes to lighting his pony’s afterburners. When announcer Ed Johnston invited the umpire to begin the festivities, John Gulick (a rated play er) tossed the ball in between the Staples father-and-sons trio of Deep Run and the well balanced six-goal handicap Middleburg team of Zeke Ferguson, Dick Riemenschneider, and Andy Guest. Things then and there exploded. The ball buzzed up and down the arena many times amidst churning hooves and rideoffs and thrilling horseraces before Phil Staples flicked in the first tally of the night. The rest of the first period was the same—fast, good hitting clean polo—ending dead even at two goals to two. The second period was a carbon of the first, also ending tied 2-2. So, at the end of their two periods against each other, the Deep Runs and the Middleburgs tied 44, with Deep Run winning because of its lower (three-goal) team handicap rating. THE SECOND third of the round robin (the third and fourth periods) RLEP meeting JACK LORENZ, editor of “Outdoor America” and information director of the Izaac Walton League of America, will be guest speaker for the quarterly meeting of the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection on June 7 at 7:30 p.m. Lorenz will describe the League’s “Save Our Streams” program. — Pete Luke, chairman of the Rappahannock County Supervisors, will report on the latest plan for developing a sewage system for Sperryville, and Capt. H. W. Holschuh will demonstrate a low cost water testing kit available for checking pollution in lakes and streams; The meeting is open to the public. □ saw Deep Run playing Rappahannock’s Billy Fannon (substituting for last minute cancellation threegoal handicap Bobby Rawlings), Jack Eicher, and Buzz Rogers— a four-goal handicap trio. Their third period saw little change in the pace of the game, with Deep Run chewing up Rappahannock to the tune of Rick Staples’s one and Daddy Ed’s two goals against Rappahannock Billy Fannon’s one. But, in the fourth period a goal by Buzz Rogers and another by Billy Fannon at the end of the consistent, quick, pressing drives by Jack Eicher, while Deep Run was: blanked, left the period’s scoring 2-0 Rappahannock. So Rappahannock and Deep Run finished tied 3-3. Again Deep Run won on handicap. The came the torrential rains, authoritatively erasing the final third of the round robin in which Middleburg and Rappahannock would have determined the place and show payoffs in the tourney already won by Deep Run. FRIDAY NIGHTS Spectators can sde some spirited churning around in the world’s oldest game after dark in the Rappahannock polo rink. This Friday night, Farmington, from Charlottesville, is slated to play Rappahannock in the second of two games; game time at dark. Some fans say Rappahannock has the best lighted polo arena in America. Game time is shortly after 8 p.m.D Ronald Scott Parson graduated from the Georgetown University School of Foreign Service with a B.S. degree on May 19. The son of Col. and Mrs. Nels A.

Martin of Fredericksburg and Mrs. William Bawkey of Culpeper are great-grandmothers. □ i Advice for veterans Harry F. Carper, Jr., director of the Virginia Division of War Veterans Claims, urges veterans who haven’t done so to “advise survivors of benefits they’re entitled to from the VA in event of your death.” He emphasized that “failure to do so could cause undue anguish during times of great emotional stress.” ' ‘It's a good idea for veteran and spouse to sit down and openly discuss important family matters, including location of family documents, which would facilitate filing of claims for VA benefits,” it was suggested. Such documents as military discharge papers, divorce decrees, guardianship or child custody evidence, birth, marriage, and death certificates should be kept safe from fire and theft, yet readily accessible.

FAUQUIER LIVESTOCK EXCHANGE INCORPORATED IARSHALL, VIRGINIA Wool program still in effect “MANY WOOL PRODUCERS have the idea that the Wool Payment Program is no longer active. However, that’s not true,” said Mary V. Updike, Program Assistant in Charge of the Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service (ASCS). “Wool producers may submit their sales documents on wool and unshorn lambs and file an application for payment on 1974 marketings at the county office,” said Mrs. Updike. Wool payments were not required in 1973, because the national average price received by producers was 82.7 cents per pound, compared to the incentive payment price, 72 cents per pound. Absence of payments during 1973 may have started a rumor that the program has lapsed. The Agriculture and Consumer Protection Act of 1973 extended the Wool Payment Program through December 1977. The incentive price level remains at 72 cents per pound, as it has been since 1970. ASCS will make payments on 1974 wool only if the National average price received Ijy all producers falls below 72 cents per pound. The final determination of National average price will be made in March 1975. If you have any questions concerning this or any of the other programs administered by the ASCS please contact your Rappahannock County ASCS Office, Washington, Virginia. The telephone number is 6753616 and office hours are 8 a.m. to 12 noon and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.□ Your Happy Shopping Store in downtown Culpeper KNIT SEPARATES MADE TO MATCH 6-88 ~ usually $8 & $9 Polyester match-metes, glowing with fresh colors, classic lines.

Approximately 60 per cent of the total funds apportioned to the system for the coming fiscal year will be spent for construction improvements, with the balance to be used for maintenance operations.

W. Burgess, Superintendent of the Virginia State Police Department, reported Wednesday. These devices, he explained, are easily mounted in a car, totally electronic, absolutely accurate and give an audible signal, in addition to the speed reading, when a vehicle driven in violation contacts their beams. “The moving radar has two advantages over conventional radar,” Burgess said. ‘ ‘ Permits troopers to perform other patrol duties without the necessity of watching the devices, andit does away with the necessity of turning around and pursuing an oncoming speeder who will have time to slow before a speedometer check is made. Courts will not ordinarily accept speed evidence when it is checked by visual estimation only,” he said. The new radar devices may also be used stationarily, as are conventional radars, to detect speeds of cars moving in either direction.□

I Wrapup of USD A survey is requested OWNERS of land in Rappahannock who have reveived one of the brief USDA questionnaires on land ownership and have not yet filled out and returned it, are urged to do so promptly. When the data from this survey is compiled, the citizens of the County will have a better idea about the current ownership pat I Robinson renominated * REP. J. KENNETH Robinson accepted renomination in a brief address to the 7th District Republican Convention in Charlottesville. He emphasized his commitment to restraint in Federal spending, and his determination to place campaigning second to the requirements of the Congressional schedule. “To the extent that the legislative schedule permits, I certainly intend to cover the District thoroughly, between now and election day, to reiterate my philosophy of government, which substantial majorities of the voting citizens of this District have endorsed twice,” Robinson said. The 7th District Congressman’s record in Congress was praised in a keynote speech by Congressman Wilmer (Vinegar Bend ) Mizell of North Carolina, who noted Robinson’s early recognition in the House through his assignment to the Appropriations Committee where he-serves as the only Vir ginia member, of either political party. ROBINSON DECLARED his faith in the essential vigor of the Republican Party. Red Cross The recent Red Cross fund raising campaign in Rappahannock raised $789.52. Most of this was gained from personal contact by the following workers: Mrs. Charles Jackson, Mrs. Dale Metzinger, Miss Nancy Jones, Mrs. Robert E. Jordan, Miss Margaret Jett, Mrs. Charlotte Freeman, Mrs. Rachael Ay lor, Mrs. Lillian Aylor, Mrs. Mary Lee Frye and Mrs. Alma Jordan. Sixty-one members donated by mail. Mrs. Jordan, a co-chairman of the campaign, expressed appreciation for the enthusiastic participation of all and said this part of the Red Cross campaign was better than it had been for the past ten years. terns and how they are likely to change in the near future. The principal research economist from USDA said, “So far the return has been good but we would like to get replies from the stragglers so thatwe could begin proccessing the data soon. The average quality of replies received thus far has been exceptionally high for surveys of this type.” “GENERALLY there are two types of non-respondents (aside from wrong addresses, owners who have sold, etc.) (1) those who just don’t get around to things (2) those who are afraid they are being investigated. The first type should be assured that it only takes a few minutes to complete and return the questionnaire in a postage free envelope. The second type should be assured that once the data is recorded their names are never again used, except to send a copy of the report. “Facts about the parcel we ask the owners to report are averaged in with many other responses so their identity is lost. When we have finished with the questionnaires, they are destroyed.” RAPPAHANNOCK County is an unusually attractive area, added the USDA man. Its agricultural and esthetic features are an important asset to the people of Virginia and the nation. “If sensible decisions about land use and development are to be made by local, State and Federal officials and by private business and citizens better knowledge about our resources is needed. Understanding who owns the land and what is done with it are important facts about our resources.”□ American Red Cross fund campaign volunteers are left to right Rachael Aylar, Roberta Jackson, Mary Jordan and Nancy Jones. Citizens can help clean up streams Here is another in a series of articles on clean water by Captain H. W. Holschuh, USN (Retired), chairman of the Water Quality Committee of the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection. (RLEP). Readers’ comments are invited. TO PARAPHRASE a remark by Charles Dudley Warner, and popularized by Mark Twain, “everybody talks about clean water, but nobody does anything about it.” However, time is ticking away, and soon people will HAVE to do something about it. The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, which took effect on October 18, 1972, established the following clean water timetable: V By 1975, the Environmental Protection Agency is to establish standards for toxic pollutants in all our waters; and the states are to establish maximum daily loads of pollutants so as to protect fish and wildlife, and to develop continuing plans for incorporating into EPA’s report on the nationwide water cleanup program. By July 1, 1977, all existing industrial sources are to adopt the “best practicable technology currently available” in ridding their wastes of harmful pollutants. All waste treatment facilities currently existing today are to achieve a minimum of secondary treatment. By July 1, 1983, every stretch of water in every state is to be suitable for recreational contact (i. e. swimming) and for the protection and propagation of fish and wildlife. Throughout America, the very best waste control and treatment measures that have been or are capable of being economically achieved must be used. By 1985, the national goal will be “No Pollution.” Discharging of all pollutants is to be eliminated. ONE MIGHT say that these goals and dates are a long way off. But when you consider that a progress report must be published next year, it behooves all of us to make some progress now in the direction of clean water. After all, we have already had 18 months to get started since the Pollution Control Act took effect. What can the average citizen do? Some say the whole clean up effort demi_i_ a 1 Q7/I pends on the effectiveness with which citizens organize for action, and press for pollution control. Citizens should begin checking on compliance by industries and municipalities with established schedules for minimizing water pollution. The law permits “John Q. Public” to bring suit against any person or corporation allegedly violating an effluent limitation, or against the Administrator of EPA if he fails to carry out his duties enforcing cleanup. But legal action can be expensive and time consuming, and is not always the best way to penalize the polluter. A simpler, and perhaps more effective way to end water pollution is for each and every one of us right here in Rappahannock County to notify our state or national authorities of any suspected violators, and to ask suspected polluters, whether they are commercial enterprizes, farm feedlots, orchards, or private residents, what they are doing to improve their harmful practices. THE LAW encourages us to ask questions, and to expect answers “inEnglish.” Another effective way of making things perfectly clear (in our streams and riverbeds at least) is to come to the RLEP Water Quality meeting on June 7 to learn about the “Save Our Streams” program. There is room in that program for landowners, farmers, FFA and 4-H Clubs, scout troops, science classes, garden clubs, fishermen, and governmental agencies to cooperate on desireable watershed management practices. Villages, people, and all the things that support them and are discarded by them are part of the watershed community. Improving even the smallest stream in Rappahannock now will result in better water quality in Virginia and help bring our country closer to its goal of a pollution free water environment by 1985. Let’s show our friends downstream that Rappahannock County leads the way in caring for the quality of our streams. Afterall, they can’t clean up their water until we clean up - ours.D HILLSDALE DRIVE-IN Washington, Va. SHOW STARTS AT DUSK Fri., Sat. & Sun.
