Night polo provides fast action BY PEKAY PETTUS THE FIRST polo game Bill Fannon ever watched was also the first polo game he ever played, in. That was at Farmington on July 3,1971. The following spring he started building a polo field on his own farm in Rappahannock. Polo, especially in this area, is usually played during the day on a grass field. But Fannon figured he and other Rappahannock riders who’d be playing with him would never be able to take up the sport unless they could practice at night. So he built a lighted arena. Polo clubs from throughout Virginia have been hosted by the Rappahannock team at Fannon’s field throughout the summer. A Cincinnati team found its way into the hills of Rappahannock when they made a playing tour of polo clubs in the East, and Fannon is expecting a British team on Friday, September 26, at 8 p.m. Arena ,or indoor polo is similar to the outdoor game, but the field is considerably smaller and made of dirt, not grass. Players are allowed to play the ball off the walls surrounding the field. The ball is much like a miniature soccer ball, and larger than the hard willow wood ball used for outdoor polo. There are three players when the game is played in an arena and four for outdoors. “THE INDOOR game is a lot more demanding,” Fannon said. “There’s more frequent stopping and turning and the play reverses hands more often. And all the while, you have to be fast. “Indoor or outdoor polo requires a rider in ready control of his horse, prepared to stop, change direction at a gallop. He must also have a dexterous hand on his mallet and a confident seat, so that he can lean and shift his position in order to strike at the ball. The game is even more demanding for the horse, so the player changes horses after each period or chukker.” When six horses are simultaneously in pursuit of one small ball, collisions are inevitable. So most of the rules of the game are designed to prevent injury to horse and rider. The player following the ball has the right of way and no player can position his horse to block a rider. Players can play off the horse’s right of left side or under his neck. The referee is also mounted and trots along, keeping up with the action. Referee for Rappahannock is Colonel Billy West of Warrenton, a former member of the U.S. Olympic polo team. Each polo player is rated with a handicap, between zero and ten goals, which reflect the number of goals they can be expected to make during a game. The combined total is the team handicap.

LATHAM, Managing Editor & Telephone Washington 675-3349 Regional warning The following “guest editorial” was written by Jack Herrity, a member of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors from Springfield District. It appeared in the September 12 issue of “the times” of Springfield. SINCE 1972 when the present Board of Supervisors took office, there has been a significant erosion of power away from local government in land use decisions. Increasingly, the courts, state legislatures, federal and regional bureaucrats are gaining more and more power over the land use processes in Fairfax County. In 1972, after the Board imposed a zoning moratorium, the court ordered the Board to hear 20 cases a month and hear them in chronological order. In 1971, as the result of the passage of the Interim Development Ordinance, the State Legislature reacted by passing Senate Bill 490 which requires the Board to hear all zoning applications within 1.2 months of filing. These incursions into local prerogatives indicate an unhealthy trend and constituted severe blows to local sen government. However, the most serious and unfortunate surrender of local power and prerogatives was the Board of Supervisors’ decision to join the Regional COG-sponsored sewer agency under Section 208 of Public Law 92-500. This operating agency will have extensive power to control size, amount, location, and timing of sewer treatment facilities in Fairfax County. BY SURRENDERING its control over sewer treatment facilities to a regional bureaucracy. The Board of Supervisors has surrendered local control over one of the basic land use planning factors. All planners agree that the decisions to develop sewer treatment facilities, their size, their location, are crucially important as part of a land use planning process. These decisions and the land use decisions so closely related will no longer be made by a body elected directly by the voters of Fairfax County. This unfortunate erosion of local government and delegation to a new layer of federal and regional bureaucrats, operating with federal funds, insulated from the ballot box, is a riant step toward regional control Over all land use determinations. ; This does not mean that there should not be regional cooperation mi the area of wastewater treatment planning; indeed, there are many examples of this type of tate rjurisdictional cooperation. However, one must clearly distinguish between regional cooperation, coordination, and a regional operating agency. In the former, the decision-making power rests ultimately with the elected focal officials and in the latter, the decision rests with a faceless federal-regional bureaucracy. I APPLAUD Jim Gleason, County Executive of Montgomery County, for his valiant efforts to keep Montgomery County from making the same mistake Fairfax County has made. Across the country less than 45 local governments in 11 areas of the country have estab„ lished 208 entities among the conservatively estimated 4,000 communities and 200 areas that are eligible across the nation. Fairfax County should reconsider its decision to join this super sewer agency. Perhaps it is not too late for Fairfax County to recapture control over its future. Surprise Mrs. Tom Smoot was entertained at a surprise party Saturday, September 7 celebrating her 90th birthday at the home of her son Billy Smoot in Washington.

What is the good life? Is it keeping up with the Jones or some other family who are with it? Some think that to be living at all is good; a thought with which I heartily concur. There was a song that used this phrase: “If you aint lovin’ you aint livin.’” And how about this—“The summer bonus of life is to love and be loved.” Let us see what others have thought about life. Plotinus 205-270 A.D., was ashamed to have been reincarnated into life, thinking perhaps that he should have been advanced to a higher plane. Seneca: “Life is warfare.” Thoreau: “The mass of men lead lives of quiet desparation.” Beethoven, while dying: “Applaud friends, the comedy is over.” Conrad: “Every age is fed on illusions, lest man should renounce life early, and the human race would end.” Butler: “All the animals, except man, know that the principal business of life is to enjoy it.” Morley: “There are three ingredients in the ‘good life’; learning, earning, and yearning.” Warnken: “We can mark time by living selfishly and contribute nothing, or we can realize our full potential and add another chapter in the fascinating story of mankind by living the ‘good life’.” Scrapbook: “The masses of men hurry and worry themselves into early graves, but now and then an unselfish soul forgets himself into immortality.” Bible, John 10:10, “I came that you might have life, the GOOD LIFE.”G Co-op board member named W.A. SPILLMAN, pre: ident of the board of directors of Culpeper Farmers’ Cooperative, Inc., announced this week the election of Russell H. Inskeep to the Board of the Co-op. Inskeep will serve the unexpired term of W.H. Hurt, who recently resigned from the board. Inskeep, a native of Culpeper County, attended VPI and owns and operates Mount Pony Farms, Inc., with his three sons. They were engaged in a dairy operation until 1971 and are presently raising grain and Holstein steers for beef. In 1951 he was awarded the Efficient Production Award by National Dairy Products. “Progressive Farmer” magazine selected the Inskeeps as 1966 Master Farm Family. INSKEEP HAS served on various local and state agricultural committees, including two terms on the Virginia State Dairymens Association Board of Directors. He is presently Chairman of the Tax Structure Committee of ACT (Advancing Culpeper Today). Hurt’s resignation came after serving on the Cooperative Board for 32 years. □

Feed and grain programs ACCORDING TO T. R. Taylor, Chairman, Rappahannock ASC Committee, the Department of Agriculture announced that the 1975 feed grain and wheat programs will have no set-side requirement, and will provide farmers decision-making freedom to produce for the marketplace. There will be no land removed from agricultural production under these government programs. As with the 1974 programs, there will be no conserving base requirement for the duration of the Agriculture and Consumer Protection Act of 1973 (through the 1977 crop year). Nor will the provision be implemented during the life of the 1973 Act which gives the Secretary of Agriculture discretionary authority to limit feed grain and wheat to a percentage of allotments. The allotments under programs authorized under the 1973 Farm Bill do not represent a limit on acreage, but are computed only for the purpose of payments to producers should such payments be required. Generally, the allotments for wheat and feed grains represent the number of acres harvested for wheat, corn, grain sorghum and barley based on the estimated national average yield which would result in production equal to estimated domestic and export disappearance in the 1975-76 marketing year. ALSO, AS in 1974, the producers may substitute any nonconserving crop or any conserving crop used for hay or for grazing in order to preserve their wheat and feed grain allotments and to make them eligible for any payments under the target price feature. Crops for which a marketing quota is in effect are excluded. Because of the market-oriented nature of these programs, producers will be studying prices rather than allotment acreages. The price incentive should result in full plantings and with normal weather conditions should enable the U. S. to not only fulfill domestic and export requirements but to build up much needed stocks as well. Their announcement will provide farmers with the information they need to make their 1975 crop planting decisions. A tiny tot enjoyed her lunch Sunday at the homecoming service and dinner at the Amissville United Methodist Church. An old fashioned “dinner on the grounds’’ with good home cooking provided a sumptious feast. ' SPECIAL AUCTION Friday Night, Sept. 20* 7:30 p.m. JENKINS AUCTION HOUSE Sperryville, Va.

Night polo action at Laurel Mills KX ... JMM Polo referee Col. Billy West of Warrenton. He’s a former member of the U.S. Olympic polo team. Polo action From Page 1 POLO WAS introduced to the Western World when the Maharaja of Lahore demonstrated the sport for British officers stationed in India in 1854. The first game was played in England in 1874 and the game reached the United States in 1876. Sporting historians are not sure when polo was first played, but one legend has it that the'sport follows a Tibetan custom of hunting muskrat. The animal was driven out of its burrow, chased until near exhaustion by mounted hunters and then killed by their clubs. Mock hunts in off season are said to have kept the hunters in shape. Polo teams from Reston, Rappahannock, Farmington and Woodlawn played at Fannon’s field last Friday night. Reston and Farmington were the winners and will compete against different teams from Young Heather Fannon posts the scores. Woodlawn and Rappahannock tomorrow night (September 20) at 8 p.m. In addition to Bill Fannon, other players for Rappahannock are Jim Fletcher Massie, Butch Eastham, Jack Ferguson, John Lyle, Bill Tucker and Buzzy Rogers.□ Between chukkers, polo players return to the vans to change horses. The fast-paced game is so demanding of horses that riders change their mounts after each period of play or chukker. Photos by Pefcay Pettus Polo players leave the arena between chukkers.

How to speed up medicare payments PEOPLE COVERED by Medicare medical insurance can assure faster payment of their claims if they make sure their correct claim number is on the claim form, according to Mrs. Hazel F. Crumpton, social security district manager in Winchester. “About one of every three delays in payment of Medicare medical insurance claims is caused by use of a wrong claim number or omission of the number entirely,” she said. The claim number identifies a claim for Medicare payment on balls for medical services. “If you put a wrong claim number— or don’t enter a number — on a ‘Request for Medicare Payment’ form, a search for your correct number is necessary,” Mrs. Crumpton added. “The search can delay your payment.” If itemized bills are sent in with a claim, the claim number also should be written on each separate bill, she said. THE CLAIM number appears on the health insurance card issued to everyone covered by Medicare. The number has nine digits and a symbol, such as A, B, F2. “The number, including the symbol, should be copied onto the designated blank on the ‘Request for Medicare Payment’ form,” Mrs. Crumpton said. “Eayment can also be delayed when medical bills are submitted without ‘Request for Medicare Payment’ forms, or then claims are sent to the wrong address,” she said. The form is available at most doctors’ offices and at any social security office. Claims for the Shenandoah Vally areas should be sent to Medicare, Travelers Insurance Company, P.O. Box 26463, Richmond, 23261, the organization that handles Medicare medical in surance payments in this area of Virginia. “If a doctor and patient agree,” Mrs. Crumpton said, “the doctor can be paid directly by Medicare. If the patient submits the claim, the Medicare payment goes to the patient.” Medicare medical insurance helps pay for doctor bills and many other medical expenses of almost everyone 65 and over, disabled Studded tire rules changed DUE TO ACTION by the 1974 Legislature, the dates for legal use of studded tires in Virginia were changed from the period November 1 to April 1 to that of October 15 to April 15, says Colonel H.W. Burgess, Superintendent of State Police. When the first studded tire legislation was enacted, in 1968, the permissible dates were from October 15 to April 15, as they are now. The 1972 Legislature shortened the period to from November 1 to April 1, Colonel Burgess said. The new dates set by the 1974 Legislature will expire April 15, 1976, and unless the Legislature of that year acts such tires will become permanently illegal. Now they may be used from October 15 of this year until April 15, 1975, and then from October 15, 1975, until April 15, 1976. WE HELP YOU.. Commonwealth LUMBER AND HARDWARE CENTER IT YOURSELF!

Groups of sportsmen who stack their doves and use a cumulative total are in violation of the law. Hunters are advised to keep their doves separately and put their name and hunting license number on any containers used. This will avoid confusion in the field and a possible violation if the hunters are checked by a Game Warden. Dove shooters are also reminded that while they may dress birds in the field, one wing must be left attached to the bird for species identification. On opening day, it was noted that a number of hunters were found afield with completely cleaned birds and hunters are cautioned to avoid problems by simply leaving one wing attached to the cleaned bird as required by law.D FURNITURE THE OPPORTUNITY INDUSTRY Because of the ever-expanding demand for furniture the year-round, stock brokers and financial magazines recommend the furniture industry as a top investment opportunity.
