Rappahannock News, November 21, 1974

VA. STATE LIBRARY C Rollison’s oratory impresses Board RAPPAHANNOCK County’s Supervisors were exposed for the first time, at their November meeting, to the oratorical talents of a relatively new citizen. They were impressed; they immediately acted on a suggestion by James A. Rollison that state and federal officials do something positive in the fight on inflation by urging that state and federal anti-trust laws be strictly enforced. Fauquier County’s Supervisors had been impressed by Rollison’s oratory, when he lived in their county. But James Rollison inadvertently (the adjective will be explained later) sold his farm near Orlean to some land developers, and was forced to seek other acres for himself and his aged mother, 86 head of cattle, 130 sheep and 21 oxen, plus assorted poultry and machinery. He resettled in Rappahannock’s Hampton District. Rollison is ex-Marine Corps and widely read. He never went to college, but he met some graduates of Virginia Military Institute who impressed him, and he thinks VMI is one of the finest things that ever happened to Virginia and the nation. When he speaks, he cites references ranging from his Marine drill sergeant to Thomas Jefferson and Marcus Aurelius. His special hero is Robert E. Lee, and a large equestrian portrait of the Confederate military leader moved with him from Fauquier to Rappahannock. HE ADDRESSED the Rappahan nock Supervisors on November 7 “as one who is proud to be a Virginian, as my people before me,” and he reminded the Supervisors that they, too, are Virginians with a proud heritage. Virginia showed the way to the nation in the establishment of fundamental freedoms, and during the Civil War, Virginia “bore the brunt of 60 per cent of the major battles...yet was the first to get on its feet at the end.” Now things are getting turned around, he went on. He said he’d read where two-thirds of the Department of Agriculture’s budget now goes for food stamps and similar programs. That’s a big change, from aiding agriculture to running a welfare program, he said, and something is wrong. Rollison spices his statements with aphorisms, and the Rappahannock Board speech was no exception. “When you get something for nothing, you just haven’t been billed for it,” was one. “A government big enough to give you everything is big enough to take all away” was another. And again: “Man owes his very existence to six inches of topsoil, and then only if it rains.” JAMES ROLLISON told the Rappahannock Supervisors that if farmers continue to get low prices, and be forced to pay high prices, the entire nation’s economic condition will be severely and adversely affected. “Whenever the farmer can’t buy, then you are in trouble,” he said. “If the farm er can’t get something for what he raises, how can he go down and buy a new tractor?” And if that cycle starts, industry and commerce will suffer right along with the farmer, he said. But there are some laws in existence that could have an effect on today’s economic situation, said See Page 15 Early deadline All news and advertising for the next issue of the Rappahannock News must be in the newspaper office by Monday afternoon at 5 p.m. The early deadline must be met because of the Thanksgiving holiday next week..Thank you.D Bicentennial plans to be discussed PLANS for Bicentennial celebrations in three counties will be the subject of the program to be presented at the meeting of the Culpeper Minute Men Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution, on Tuesday, November 26. A panel consisting of the Bicentennial chairmen of Culpeper, Madison and Rappahannock counties will review and discuss projects and festivities proposed in their areas. Mrs. George Davis of Washington, Va. will represent Rappahannock County while Murat Williams will speak for Madison County. Capt. John T. S. Kearns, USN, Ret., chairman of the Culpeper County Bicentennial Commission, will complete the panel. Mrs. J. H. White, (Chapter Bicentennial Chairman,) will serve as moderator. THE meeting will be held at 2:30 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall of the Culpeper United Methodist Church with Mrs. VincentR'Beasley and Mrs. Biedler Settle as hostesses. Chapter members were asked to bring good used clothing, jewelry, etc. and wrapped marked Christmas gifts to be sent to the two DAR schools, Kate Duncan Smith and Tamassee. A brief meeting of the executive board will be held at 2:10 p.m. preceding the business session. □ 1 J>eer hunters enjoy opening day success “RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY deer hunters apparently enjoyed two successful days of hunting in the good weather when the 1974-75 season opened here Monday,” said Game Warden Irvin L. Kenyon, Jr. “Hunting pressure diminished Wednesday with the rain. With the use of actual figures and a little guesswork, the Warden said the deer take through the first two days looked like this: Station 1st day 2nd day This totals 98 for the two days in Rappahannock. In addition, four bucks were checked by the game warden and five deer were taken by bow hunters during the special archery season. These figures represent a slight increase from last year during a similar period. Only two turkeys have been checked here and both were taken in adjoining counties. Bear season opens Monday the 25th.

LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 _ Rural litter study KEEP Virginia Beautiful, Inc., the statewide organization for litter prevention, has released “An Appraisal of the Litter Problem in Rural Virginia.” The purpose of the survey was to determine the (1) cost to taxpayers of litter pickup and disposal, (2) effect of trash on the tourist trade, (3) hazards to health, safety and recreation, (4) extent of litter as a factor in air and water pollution, and (5) methods to prevent or eliminate littering. The 20-page, illustrated report, which was financed through a grant from the Virginia Agricultural Foundation, utilized three methods of gathering information: on-site observations; interviews with city, county and state officials, as well as private citizens, and questionnaires to every county and city in Virginia. Three major types of litter were revealed: • “Abandoned junk automobiles and household appliances. • “Discarded trash along roadways and wooded areas. • “Burned and dilapidated buildings, including an amazing number of vacant service stations that are developing into major sources of ugliness”. “LITTERING in this country has been described as a national disgrace,” says Giles H. Miller, Jr., president of KVB, in the foreword. “Litter is ugly, it lowers property values, drives away business, retards industrial development, and hurts the tourist trade, now a billion dollar business in the Old Dominion. Litter causes fires, accidents and health hazards. “The total cost of de-littering public and private property in the United States is estimated at more than a billion dollars a year. Virginia’s share of this senseless waste is close to $25 million annually! This sum would build a lot of hospitals, highways and schoolhouses.’’ The report deals forthrightly with each litter problem and outlines procedures to cope with it. “Citizen involvement” is emphasized as the key to the total solid waste problem, including littering, and stressed are the programs of “education and action” of Keep Virginia Beautiful as being of paramount importance. These programs accenting “Education, Equipment and Enforcement,” the report concludes, “have fostered clean-up campaigns and beautification projects in nearly every city, county and community of the Commonwealth, and brought Virginia three First Place National Awards from Keep America Beautiful, including the ‘President’s Society Award’ in 1973, the highest environmental honor in America. Anyone who travels across Virginia cannot help but be impressed with the winning battle being waged by the citizens of this state against littering. But much more remains to be done, especially in rural Virginia. “Virginia is the most beautiful state in America. Hopefully, this appraisal of the rural litter problem will help chart a course to keep our state that way; make Virginia more attractive to industry and tourism, and more pleasing and healthful to all of our citizens.” FIRE, RESCUE SQUAD Washington Rescue Squad was called November 18, to search for a man lost in the woods, but services were not needed. Sperryville Rescue Squad answered three calls this week. November 13, Barbara Lamb of Front Royal was taken from Burkes Store, Woodville to Culpeper Memorial Hospital. November 14 Jake Flncham was carried from his home in Woodville to Culpeper Memorial and November 18, Earl Wharton was carried from Sperryville to Newton D. Baker Hospital in Martinsburg, W. Va. The Chester Gap Rescue Squad took Carl Longmire, Sr. from his home early Saturday morning to Warren Memorial Hospital. □ “Close-ups” A pile of finishing nails pictured last week netted numerous replies to the photo contest.

Orange clinic design FRED KINES, architect with the Casanova firm Earth Design, has presented to the community Mental Health and Mental Retardation Services (Chapter 10) Board preliminary plans for the construction of the new mental health center in Orange. The proposed site is adjacent to the county’s existing welfare building and nursing home. The plan, which calls for a twostory structure with a combination brick veneer and wood sided exterior, was adopted by the Board. Kines was authorized to present the plans to the County Board of Supervisors for its consideration at the November meeting. In recognition of the Culpeper United Giver’s Fund’s support for mental health and related services the Board adopted a resolution encouraging the community to participate enthusiastically in this year’s UGF drive. The Board was also presented a proposal by Phil Childers, Co-ordinator of Mental Health, Residential Programs, which requested permission to purchase a house in Orange for operating a group home for mentally handicapped persons. The Board approved the proposal on the condition that a structurally sound house and suitable financing can be found. IN OTHER business the Chapter 10 Board adopted “in principle” a request from the Orange County School Board to contract with them for hiring a full-time psychologist. Also, the Board voted to change its title from Planning District Nine Services Board to the RapNine Services Board to the Rappahannock-Rapidan Services Board. This is consistent with the title die district planning commission recently assumed for itself. George Muth, newly appointed board member from Rappahannock County, attended the meeting. □ New honeysuckle touted GOOD NEWS for songbirds and homeowners who enjoy their feathered entertainers is a unique honeysuckle that performs as a living feeder-station. The vegetation, called Rem-red Amur honeysuckle, grows abundant bird food of special value during winter months. Rem-red produces deep red berries maturing in October and November. The fruits dry like raisins and cling to the bush through severest weather. They provide plenty of nutrition well into late winter when other songbird fare is in short supply. The recommended honeysuckle was developed by workers at plant materials centers of the USDA Soil Conservation Service. Centers have fostered many shrubs, trees and grasses serving as year round bird attractions. MOST conservation-style plantings for birds offer choice seeds and fruits the songsters devour completely by early fall. Less tasty but hearty Rem-red raisins fill in the menu when hard times come. Planted in early spring, the special honeysuckle enhances home landscaping in backyards and along woods borders. Birds use the growth for favored nesting sites as well as feeding. Information . on where to get Rem-red Amur honeysuckle and other bird-feeding plants is available at Soil and Water Conservation District offices throughout Virginia. Local landowners may also secure the details from the U.S. Soil Conservation Service at 41 Culpeper St., Warrenton.D

Robert Gibson of Flint Hill driving a 70 OldsmObile lost control of the car, ran off the road and struck numerous trees, according to Trooper R. A. Baines. The same day, Nancy Watts of Warm Springs was travelling west ASCS has answers to census queries BY THE time Rappahannock county farmers receive their 1974 Census of Agriculture questionnaires in early January, employes at the county ASCS office will have an information packet on hand so they can answer questions about the 1974 farm census. The Bureau of the Census plans to send all county ASCS offices throughout the country a complete information packet which will include a reference handbook and a sample questionnaire. Farmers who have any uncertainties about the farm census or how to fill out the form will be able to get help at the county ASCS office, according to T. R. Taylor, Chairman, Rappahannock County ASC Committee. Farmer co-operation in the Cen sus of Agriculture, which is held every five years, is important, since the statistical data developed from the census are used throughout government and private industry, Mr. Taylor reported. THE FARM census will be held by mail, he said. Rappahannock county producers may expect to receive the census forms by early January and are asked to fill in the blanks and return the forms by mail before the end of that month, if possible. “Farmers might want to make a note now that if they have any questions about how to fill in the 1974 Census of Agriculture forms, they can get help at the county ASCS office,” Taylor said.D Along with our MANY Other Services we now offer: Antique HHorb Sejjatr Watch and Jewelry Repair Silver Repair and Replating Select from our complete lines of silver, china, glassware, jewelry, clocks and watches, pewter and gifts. 118 H.

Hunter safety is stressed SEVENTEEN states and three Canadian Provinces now require the completion of Hunter Safety training prior to the issuance of hunting licenses, according to Jim Kerrick, Safety Officer for the Game Commission. Out-of-state hunters who plan to hunt in the areas where this ruling is in effect must show proof of having completed a bonafide hunter safety course in their home state before hunting permits will be issued. The states which require the mandatory training include California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Kansas, Michigan, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah, Washington. In Canada, the Provinces of Manitoba, Ontario and^Quebec have the requirement. Persons interested in participating in the hunter safety courses offered in Virginia and which are honored by the locations requiring this training are urged to contact their local Game Warden for details. Since the hunter safety training program began in Virginia in 1961, over 126,000 persons have, successfully completed the course.* Christian Science service scheduled Thanksgiving services on November 28 at Churches of Christ, Scientist, have been scheduled. The 11:00 a.m. public service at Christian Science Society, 50 Main Street, Warrenton, will include reading President Ford’s Thanksgiving Proclamation and a Lesson Sermon on Thanksgiving.

I don’t think the writer was speaking of Golden Delicious or Grime’s Golden apples, he was speaking of the real thing. I read the other day that some country was offering $190 for an ounce of fine gold. That would be $3,040 per pound. An apple of normal size, made of gold, would probably weigh at least three pounds, so let us assume the basket contains three apples. According to my figures the three golden apples would have a total value of $27,360. Valuable words? Some words might be considered of even greater value, depending on who spoke them and to whom. “Because you said: ‘I love you’ once, Those words will always live.

Medicare information MEDICARE is now paying $3 million a week for health care expenses of over 15,000 people who have chronic kidney disease, according to Mrs. Hazel F, Crumpton, social security district manager in Winchester. Medicare health insurance became available July 1, 1973 to workers insured under social security, or their dependents, who have chronic kidney disease. Medicare coverage begins the fourth month after renal dialysis (artificial kidney treatment) starts. “The coverage lasts for 12 months after dialysis ends or the patient has a successful kidney transplant,” she said. Medicare also helps pay for x wide variety of the health care expenses of people 65 and over and disabled people of any age who have been entitled to social security disability payments for 24 consecutive months or more. THE PROGRAM is administered by the Social Security Administration, an agency of the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. “You can get information about Medicare by calling or writing any social security office,” Mrs. Crumpton said. The Winchester office is at 20 S. Cameron St. The phone number is 667-1511.□ VIEWTOWN Mr. and Mrs. John Sheffield had as guests Sunday, Mr. and Mrs. Delmar Wright of Arlington. ■^ke Mined tribute CEMETERY MEMORIALS CLORE FUNERAL HOME “The Home of Thoughtful Service" PHONI 825-2361 CULPEPER Notice VIRGINIA: IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF RAPPAHANNOCK SADIE FLETCHER SIMS, et al Complainants vs. LOTTIE LEE FLETCHER, et al Defendants IN CHANCERY NO. 2758 ORDER OF PUBLICATION THE object of this suit is to partition title to a certain tract of land which Byrd Fletcher died seized and possessed of, and to quiet title to a certain strip of land between State Secondary Route #622 and Rush River, located in Hampton Magisteria District, Rappahannock County, Virginia, said land contains 5.73 acres, more or less, as more fully recited in said Bill of Complaint.

“Homesteaders’* from Washington, D.C., and the metropolitan area in general have become a prominent part of Rappahannock’s population, and their efforts have often had a beneficial effect on the landscape. One of the better examples has been managed by Charles Kalbufus, who purchased a tract of 25 acres with a long-abandoned old log house at the foot of Hickerson Mountain. With his money and muscle—mostly muscle, he says—and a lot of loving care, the old cabin has been restored to respectability. Among problems encountered were several snakes who claimed squatters’ rights. Now Charles and his Vietnamese wife can enjoy weekends in Rappahannock in rustic style.

Courthouse. Featured speaker will be Rae H. Ely, director of public relations for Historic Green Springs, Inc., Louisa County. She was named 1974 “Newsmaker of the Year” by the Virginia Press Women’s Association and 1974 “Citizen of the Year” by the Charlottesville Daily Progress. Mrs. Ely was instrumental in successful efforts to save the historic and beautiful Green Springs area from a major state prison facility and also from open mineral mining. She has personally restored, temporarily, at least, 18th and 19th century buildings. Headlining the program at 8p.m. will be a sneak preview of “Eighteenth Century Rappahannock” presented by the local Bi-Centennial Steering Committee. Autumn color slides have been taken in the Washington and Sperryville areas by Howard Holschuh and are a documentation of the houses shown on the “Colonial Map of Roads” originallv prepared in 1957 for the 350th Jamestown Anniversary Celebration.

The next feature was a musical exhibit on the “Twelve Days of Christinas.” A man-made Christmas tree 24 feet tall with 25 points of animation, including stylized Old English characters that light up and-revolve, slowly turns as each verse of the song is played. By the time the last verse was sung, every figure lit up and revolved, creating a picture of fantastic movement. As they proceeded farther into the exhibits,, they entered a huge area with some 400 display booths set up on Christmas ideas. Everything imaginable relating to Christmas was available in a kit, or ready-made.

A funeral service was held Tuesday at the Clore Funeral Home Chapel, Culpeper conducted by the Rev. Robert Ellis. Burial was in Hillcrest Memory Gardens. He was employed by Culpeper Frozen Foods -Inc.D feedlot at Foster Falls, in Wythe County. For breeders to be eligible to consign bulls to any of the three test stations they must be members of the Virginia BCIA and be on a complete wholeherd testing program, either through the Virginia BCIA or its national breed association. “At the Culpeper and Red House stations, bulls to be eligible for test must come out of the top half of their herds based on weaning performance,’’ Eller said. When bulls come off test at these two official test stations, the top 70 per cent of the bulls, based on 140-day gain test performance and adjusted 365-day weight, will be eligible for sale. THERE WILL be one sale at Culpeper on March 7. There will be two sales at the Red .House Bull Evaluation Center to be held Feb. 1 and March 1. At the Southwest Test Station, breeders are not restricted as to the bulls that are eligible for test based on weaning performance. Bulls at the Southwest Station will be custom tested and there is no sale planned. At Culpeper there are 163 bulls on test. Of these, 89 are senior aged bulls carried from September 1, 1973-November 30, 1973, and four are junior aged bulls carried from December 1,1973-March 10, 1974. The bulls on test, by number of breed are 105 Angus, 47 Polled Hereford, six Charolais, one Red Angus, two Black Angus, and two three-quarter-bred Simmentals. Bulls on senior test will come off the 140-day test December 23 while the juniors will come off test February 10. At the Red House Bull Evaluation Center there are 142 bulls on official test. Seventy-six are seniors and 66 are juniors. A third group of bulls was put on test at Red House in what is known as the spring age group in November. IN THE senior group, which will come off test January 14, there BIRTHDAY PARTY Margaret Kozik, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Kozik ofSperryville, celebrated her eighth birthday November 9 at her home.

There is a possibility that some of the bulls tested at the Southwest Station may be offered for sale at auction. With the numbers of bulls on test at the central test stations, there will be an excellent selection of performance tested bulls for both purebred and commercial breeders to pick from in the sales next winter and spring, Eller said.D Chief Park Ranger Charles B.

VA check deadline INCOME questionnaires will be mailed with Veterans Administration pension checks for November, and must be returned by January 1, instead of the customary January 15 deadline. Roanoke VA Regional Office Director, W.H. Highfill, Jr. explained that the new earlier filing date was set to relieve the annual logjam in preparation of January checks when questionnaires were received near or after the former January 15 deadline. Pensioners in Virginia are urged to complete and return the Forms as soon after receipt as possible. Under the law, VA mails annual income questionnaires to veterans on non-service-connected pension rolls, widows of veterans receiving pensions based on the nonservice-connected death of a husband, and certain parents who receive monthly checks because of the service-connected death of a veteran or serviceman. HIGHFILL noted that most pensioners must file questionnaires each year. However, persons 72 years old or over who have been on VA pension rolls during the last two consecutive years are exempt from routine reporting but they are required to report income changes when they occur. Also, some beneficiaries who normally are exempt will receive questionnaires this year because of cost of living increases in their annuities. According to Highfill, thousands of beneficiaries missed the former January 15 deadline over the years. Prompt return of questionnaires by the new January 1 deadline will avoid delays in next year’s checks, he said, stressing that a special effort is needed this year by the late filers to comply with the new deadline. □ LAW REMINDER Discharging a gun from the highway or within 100 yards of the highway is against the law.

Rollison speaks to Rappahannock Board From Page 1 Rollison—the anti-trust laws. The only trouble is, these laws aren’t being enforced: “Anti-trust laws are as good as signs put up on an orchard, telling the canker worms to stay out.” “We might as well not have any laws the way they’re being taken care of.” So James Rollison suggested that the Board of Supervisors pass a resolution “toputpressure on Congress for strict enforcement of the anti-trust laws.” If this were done, he predicted, “it would cut into the holdings of the big corporations, thereby creating more competition” and, eventually, lower prices for everyone. It’ll take time, he conceded, “but it will work.” “Take hold before you have to let go,” he exhorted the Super ‘When you get something for nothing , you just haven’t been billed for it. ’—James A. Rollison visors. Rollison had a sympathetic audience. Chairman Pete Luke said he certainly had no objection to drafting such a resolution, and Herbert Foster was even more enthusiastic: “I agree with what he said 100 per cent. He’s 100 per cent right.” LUKE SUGGESTED that copies of the resolution be sent to the county’s legislative representatives, and also to Virginia Congressmen and Senators and the Governor. Added Commonwealth’s Attorney George Davis: “You’ve got state anti-trust laws that aren’t being enforced, too; you ought to say something about those.” The Supervisors agreed to put in state anti-trust laws, too.

At first, they proposed developing a subdivision called “Rappahannock Estates” (the farmland borders the river), with houses “clustered.” In something of a landmark decision, the Supervisors turned down the request, heeding arguments that the “cluster” subdivision would do harm to Fauquier’s master plan. The area is zoned for low density housing, while “clusters” would amount to medium density. Rollison objected later, in vain, against even ten-acre subdivisions of his former farm, and went down swinging as legal process eventually forced him to give way to bulldozers and housing contractors. He vowed at that time: “They may lick me in this one. I’m not quitting. I’ll lick my wounds, have a good cry, and fall back to a better position, and come back fighting.” It looks like he’s found his better position, in Rappahannock County.—Ray Dilley AN 9 C QUALITY THEATRE IN FROM ROYAL VIRGINIA Last Times Tonight 2 Shows at 7 & 9 p.m. CUNT EASTWOOD “THUNDERBOLT and LIGHTFOOT” E3 United Artists 1 Week Only Eves at 7 & 9 P.M.
