Latham of Viewtown celebrated their 69th wedding anniversary Sunday with a family dinner at the home of their son-inlaw and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. G. E. Doyle at Amissville. The Lathams were married November 14, 1906 at his home where he was ill with pneumonia. He is a retired farmer. They had five children, Mrs. Doyle, Mrs. Corrie Miller of Coldchester, Conn; Mrs..

The committee has been directed to study the “adequacy of present programs and facilities at Rappahannock High School; to determine the need for additional space and or alterations to adequately accomodate the high school program; to recommend to the school board any action deemed necessary to correct any inadequacies in facilities, space or other needs.’’ Rappahannock High School was EARLY DEADLINE Due to the Thanksgiving Holiday next week, the deadline for - news and advertising for the Rappahannock News must be in this office by Monday afternoon at 5:30 p.m. In order to be mailed on time the day of publication must be moved up one day. built 15 years ago for 285 pupils. An addition in 1966 increased the capacity to 385 pupils. The enrollment for the 1975-76 session is 465. Estimates for the next six years, based on elementary school enrollments, show enrollment at the high school will continue at the same level or increase slightly, O. A. Norton, Superintendent of schools, told the school board. Mrs. Beverly Massie will serve as the School Board’s representative on the special committee and Dick Latham will represent the Supervisors. Robert Anderson of Woodville and Emory Russell of Flint Hill will be “lay citizen” members of the committee. Superintendent of Schools O. A. Norton and Assistant Superintendent T. A. Fleetwood will not serve as members of the committee but will be available as “resource contacts,” Norton said, when he announced the appointment of committee members this week. The School Board established the special committee at the School Board meeting November 11, but waited until this week to announce the committee members. ALSO at the school board meeting November 11, Board members decided that all non-residents of Rappahannock County who want to attend Rappahannock County public schools will have to pay tuition, in the amount of $500 a year, approximately what it costs the county to educate a student in the public schools. The issue of tuition for nonresidents was raised at the request of Rappahannock High School senior Fook Yuen. Yuen’s parents have moved out of Rappahannock and Yuen now lives in Front Royal so that he can be near his part time job. He had asked to be exempted from the tuition requirement as a “hardship case.” The School Board went into execution session to discuss the merits of Yuen’s request. In a brief public session they appointed Mrs. Frances Matthews as a Title I aid and Mrs. Wayne Sutphin as a substitute bus driver. They went back into executive session to discuss the appointment of members of the special study commission. Recycling project A recycling project is being under taken in Rappahannock which includes magazines, newspapers and pure aluminum cans, aluminum foil, any all aluminum product. Tentative plans are for a collection of these items the first weekend in December with everyone taking these items to a central point in the vicinity of Washington. The exact place will be announced. Magazines and newspapers must be bundled and tied or boxed. If this project is successful, plans will be made for a regular schedule of pick-up and disposition.

LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 Creative bureaucracy ONCE the Rappahannock News inspired some angry letters from local officials when we criticized them for the argument that if they didn’t join a “regional planning district’’ they wouldn’t be eligible for federal grants. That was a poor reason for joining anything, we argued, and this newspaper still feels that if grant programs are worthwhile, they ought to be distributed to communities on the basis of need, not bureaucratic convenience. But the philosophy exemplified by the statement, “if we don’t get the grants somebody else will,” continues to prevail in many localities. Over in Fauquier, something of a new record for a grant grab must have been set by the School Board’s decision to apply for a whopping amount of federal funds to build an athletic field house, on the grounds that this would constitute “environmental education” for Fauquier students. Well, just about everything can be classified as “environmental,” if you come down to it. Breathing in and breathing out affect the environment. Using Fauquier’s yardstick, local officials could justify just about any fund request there is, on grounds it is “environmental.” BUT Fauquier is not alone. Prince William has named one of its bureaucrats to act as a full-time seeker of federal grants. And in Loudoun, local governments have been presented a proposal that they hire a sort of grant broker, paying him a percentage based on the number of federal dollars gathered. Everybody wants to get in on the grab—complaining all the time about how high federal taxes are and how stingy the state is. Frankly, we’d all be a lot better off if a great many of those federal grant programs dried up. Many of them do little more than establish new bureaucracies anyway; they don’t actually do anything for anybody. If these things were curtailed, then maybe localities would be more careful about living within their means. Maybe even a lot of boondoggling, make-work bureaucratic paper-shifting could be dispensed with, and maybe we’d have a lot less local officials justifying outrageous grabs for the public purse strings on the grounds that if they don’t get it, somebody else will.

Letters to the editor Liked editorial Editor: 9 Every week after I read my Rappahannock News I say to myself, “I’ve got to write and commend them on that newspaper.” This week I’m finally doing it. Your editorial “Save the Farmland” is one of the most progressive, logical, sane pieces of writing I’ve been able to read lately. Perhaps you could do more, by publishing a reader’s column of suggestions as to the ways—legal, financial, cultural—that the cause of Rappahannock farmland could be fostered. I’m sure many residents have ideas as to little things that can be done individually as well as bigger things that can be done cooperatively. Leasing farmland to keep it productive, (especially from nonresidents); cooperatives to share equipment; cooperatives for marketing produce; tax incentives for farmers; state-level efforts for land use planning; educational programs for schoolchildren on the value of rural land. . . the list must be very long, of positive actions that can be taken by individuals and groups. I’m afraid if positive steps are not taken, then the way of life will consist in constant fights against—developers, finger lickin chicken on 211, subdivisions, exceptions to zoning, powerlines, bigger and better highways, . . . Thanks for the News. Beverly Hunter Alexandria Energy advice Safety course AREA residents are urged to use discretion in planning their Christmas holiday decorations. The Potomac Edison Company has issued its annual appeal to individuals, businesses and municipalities to eliminate or at least reduce decorative lighting for the coming holidays. Conservation of energy and the cost of energy are two reasons cited by PE for continuing its practice of the past several years to urge such restraint. “It is certainly not news to anyone that the cost of electricity has been increasing,” said C. I. Cather, division manager for the utility company, “and anything a customer can do to hold down his usage will help hold down his bill. This is particularly helpful during the winter months when usage is usually higher than at any other time of year.” FURTHERMORE, he stated, many people will not acknowledge that there is a very severe energy crisis facing this country, but there is one, he said, and it is related to fuel supplies and cost. Potomac Edison has prepared a special pamphlet for customers offering tips on holiday decorations that do not require lighting and suggestions on how to reduce lighting requirements. Catherpointed out that these steps apply not only to homes, but to business and community decorations. The pamphlet is available at all PE offices.

Scenic river proposals dropped PROPOSALS to protect the Rappahannock and Rapidan Rivers as State Scenic Rivers were killed by the State Commission of Outdoor Recreation last Friday in Richmond. However, the Commission voted to recommend state legislation designating Goose Creek in Loudoun as a State Scenic River. The large amount of opposition to the scenic river plans on the Rappahannock and Rapidan Rivers expressed by riverfront landowners and the lack of support from local legislators and governments, were cited as the major reasons why the Commission of Outdoor Recreation did not recommend scenic river designation to the General Assembly. Commission Chairman M. Lee Payne also said the state’s bleak financial picture was a reason why scenic river designation of the Rappahannock and Rapidan Rivers was not pushed at this time. The cost of providing canoe access points, campgrounds, and monitoring the use of the Rappahannock and Rapidan Rivers by the State Parks Department, was estimated at $450,000 for the first two years. The Commission of Outdoor Recreation began studying the possible state scenic river designation for a 29-mile portion of the Rappahannock from Remington to Motts Run and a 13 mile stretch of the Rapidan between Germanna Bridge and the confluence last year after the Corps of Engineers decided that the proposed Salem BLEF critical of Miller statement backing Vepco THE RAPPAHANNOCK LEAGUE for Environmental Protection has denounced the Virginia attorney general for “promoting Vepco interests while ignoring the interests of citizens who oppose its plans for new high voltage transmission lines.” In a critical letter to Attorney General Andrew P. Miller, RLEP President R. Philip Irwin said he was “incredulous” that Miller had submitted an unsolicited statement supporting Vepco’s position in a legal proceeding to which Virginia Was ,not even a party. Miller’s “Statement of Position of the Commonwealth of Virginia” was filed October 14 before the Nuclear Regulatory Commission following completion of hearings on Vepco’s planned North AnnaMorris ville transmission line. Irwin charged Miller with “gross omissions” and reliance upon obsolete facts and findings. He asked Miller to “withdraw your statement from the NRC and.. .as a representative of the people of Virginia, you refrain from any further promotion of the interests ofVepco.” Irwin cited evidence introduced by citizen groups opposing the new powerlines, including: “radically changed electricity load demands and projected growth rates, and environmental benefits gained by using existing powerline corridors.” He decried the failure of Miller’s statement to recognize the sacrifice and cost to private citizens who have been fighting the new powerhnes for four years, while concerning itself with “costly delays” to the powerful utility company. RLEP last month submitted its own “Proposed Findings of Fact” before the NRC on behalf of the Fauquier League for Environmental Protection. □ BENEFIT SUPPER Ham and Turkey and the I rim min's Saturday, November 22 5 to 8 p.m. Amissville Fire Hall $i adulIs $'l under 12 years Benefit Amissville Fire Company and Rescue Squad Church Dam was not economically feasible “at this time.” The Federal Parks Service was also interested in designating the rivers as federal Wild and Scenic Rivers, but state control won out. MANY riparian landowners objected to the state scenic river designation because they feared an increase in recreational use of the river, and did not want the state government taking control of what they considered their property. The City of Fredericksburg was also against the scenic river plans because the city still wants to build a Salem Church-type dam, even though a consultant told the city the extra water supply was not needed. Even though no landowners would lose any property rights under scenic river designation, and no new building controls would be instituted, landowners’ opposition to any government action on the river scared away all local legislators and county governments, including the Fauquier Supervisors—many of whom supported the protection plans—from pushing for the scenic river designation. Proponents of the scenic river designation, which included many conservation groups in the state, argued that the Rappahannock and Rapidan Rivers needed to be pro tected from damming, warning that the Salem Church Dam is still a real possibility. Increased recreational use of the river will occur even if the rivers were designated as scenic by the state. Scenic river designation would help control the recreational use of the river, they argued, even though many of the conservationist lamented that Virginia’s scenic river protection efforts relied so much on recreation. COMMISSION of Outdoor Recreation Chairman Payne said the decision not to push for scenic river legislation does not mean “a cessation of concern for this significant natural resource, but a recognition of funding, a recogSee Page 9 Ladies cited Two members of the Flint Hill United Methodist Church WMU were given special recognition at the Monday evening meeting, November 17 of this group at the home of Mrs. Douglas Bywaters.

On November 9, Hardaway arrived with 18 couple of hounds, nine horses, three whippersrin and his wife to hunt his own hounds in the most heavily deer-infested mountains of Rappahannock.

Pam Clater and Edie Eastham were guests earlier in the evening. the packs being alternated each day and compared after two demonstrations each. “Never saw the likes, they are real fox dogs,’’ said Clifton Clark, President of the Northern Virginia Foxhunters Association, a group of field trial enthusiasts, after he watched Georgia hounds hunt a line and saw a deer actually cross the fox’s track in front of hounds without eve n a waver. Hardaway’s method of hunting hounds impressed all the local hunters, on horse and on foot, who met to follow the hunts. He constantly talks to his hounds, singling them out by name, reprimanding them witn profanity and encouraging them with “rebel yells.” Hardaway’s staff is never allowed to crack a whip. He achieves communication and control by use of only his own whistling and an English horn. RAPPAHANNOCK hounds, locally bred in the most part from fast-running Walker strains and old time Bywaters blood lines, range much farther afield from their capable Rappahannock-born huntsman, Jimmie Dodson, and tend to hunt more independently than do the Georgia hounds. On the last day of the Challenge, right to the very end of the tourney, Georgia nounds were ahead by three runs on reds and a flawless performance in regard to deer, while Rappahannock hounds had to be broken off deer one time. However, the score was evened at the last minute when Rappahannock hounds closed in at the foot of Fielding mountain for an instant kill just before a downpour. Results of the four-day hunting contest: six red foxes run to earth, one killed, ten deer seen, two delighted Masters of Foxhounds, and incontrovertible proof that “deerproof hounds” exist.—Mary Jamieson BRIDGE PARTY Mrs. Frank Tabler entertained the Sperryville Bridge Club and additional guests at her home Friday evening.

A. is planning an assembly with special music by the choir,possibly a skit and a guest speaker . . . .Now the question is, “can our magazine campaign ‘chicken’ turn into a ‘turkey’ in time for the assembly?. ...” The magazine campaign ended Tuesday—the final profit is not yet known. A suggestion box has been TALES placed in the library for student ideas on how the S. C. A. might use the money. The suggestions ranged from buying coat racks to getting a Spanish teacher! Sorry, I think the Spanish teacher will have to wait for another year. Mr. Patterson and some of his physics students went moon gazing Tuesday evening. They positioned a telescope on the school rooftop to watch the lunar eclipse . . . they only had a few major difficulties. . .finding the moon, etc. Actually it was too hazy to see the first half of the eclipse but the moon finally rose high enough so that the second half was visible. Passersby may have been a little confused at the sight. Don’t worry—the school may be crowded but they haven’t shipped us to the roof yet! Have a nice weekend.

The Interior Department can designate rivers under the Wild and Scenic River Protection Act without consent from Congress. The Parks Service can also condemn land. If the rivers had been designated by the state, no government condemnation would be permitted. The Interior Department and the Parks Service are said to be very interested in protecting the Rappahannock and Rapidan Rivers because there are very few “natural” rivers left on the East Coast.
