Rappahannock News, November 27, 1975

VOLUME XXVI, Number 54 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA • THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1975 FIFTEEN CENTS County trees to be in LBJ Memorial A FAMILIAR scene in Rappahannock for the past few weeks has been great trailers loaded with tall pine trees lumbering along the highways. The delicate long-needled branches blowing in the wind appear to be waving a farewell, and indeed they are, as they make their way to a new home. These specimen pines are a gift from Mrs. Paul Summers of The Shade near Washington, Va. to the LBJ Memorial Grove on the banks of the Potomac in Washington, D.C. She has contributed about 250 trees for the grove, which will cover 15 acres in the Lady Bird Park on Columbia Island. The grove will contain some 900 white pine trees when completed. Following the death of her first husband, Raymond Wire, Mrs. Summers established The Shade Nursery in 1964 to help fill the void created bv his death Rows of evergreens, shruoDery and trees, dogwoods and others were set out, and with great care, have flourished in the ensuing years. “In a conversation with Liz Notice HOLIDAY HOURS The office of'the Rappahannock News will be closed Thursday and Friday for the Thanksgiving Holiday, opening for business Monday morning. Have a delicious holiday. Carpenter at a dinner party one evening, I mentioned my trees and the proposed memorial grove,” said Mrs. Summers. “Liz in turn spoke to Lady Bird and contact was made with Nash Castro who is chairman of the committee in charge of construction of the Lyndon Baines Johnson Memorial Grove, honoring the late President.” The memorial grove will contain a large megalith. The huge stone will be inscribed on four sides with excerpts from speeches made by the late president. The pine trees will surround the megalith. MEADE PALMER of Warrenton is designer of the memorial grove and is the landscape architect. He with Nash Castro, and Harold Vogel, the architectural sculptor, and Lawrence Rockfeller, honorary chairman of the project, spent , a. -weekend in Texas< conferring with Mrs. Johnson. The trees were approved. It was necessary tor tne trees used in the park to be mature and high enough for bicyclists and pedestrians to ride and walk beneath, so the stately pines lining the driveway of The Shade qualified and plans were made for their removal. Mrs. Summers is a Texan herself, a personal friend of Lady Bird Johnson and the late President Johnson, therefore she was most eager to have a part in the establishment of the grove. In addition to her 2000-acre farm in Rappahannock, Mrs. Summers owns and spends about four months each year on her Double R Ranch in Spofford, Tex. The LBJ Memorial Grove was dedicated in April of last year and work on it has been in progress since that time. The pine . V. trees have been moved in the past three weeks from Rappahannock. Moving of the trees is paid for by public subscription and contributions. IL / . \ \ V«* It / 1 This machine with four sharp spade-like blades is used 'to. remove the pine trees from The Shade in preparation for their trip to Washington, D. C. where they will be planted in the LBJ Memorial Grove. The hydraulic blades are operated independently to dig the trees; then hold it and set it down on a large square of burlap where it is balled for shipment. Sperry ville water a problem, too BY PEKAY PETTUS THE long-standing “Sperryville problem” may get worse before it gets better, Maury Biddle, chairman of Rappahannock’s Water and Sanitation Authority told the Plan-, ning Commissioners Wednesday, November 19. The Water and Sanitation Authority is working on plans for a sewer system for Sperryville, so that effluent from houses and businesses in the unincorporated village will no longer pollute the Thornton River. But ground water supplies, from which Sperryville citizens get their drinking water, are polluted too. And there’s a chance the State Health Department could declare Sperryville a public health “menace” Biddle said. Maury Biddle told the Planning Commissioners he welcomed their invitation for him to tell them about plans for the Sperryville sewer system. “I take this to mean that there’s some recognition that the Sperryville problem is also a county problem,” he said. Biddle speculated that other communities in Rappahannock would be in Sperryville’s straits soon. Then, he described to the Planning Commission the nature and extent of Sperryville’s problems and what the Water and Sanitation Authority is trying to do about them. Already, one business in town, the Sandwich Shop, has lost its public health permit because of contaminated water, Biddle said. All businesses in Sperryville were threatened with loss of permits several years ago, not because they used contaminated water but because they contributed to the pollution of the Thornton River. But since Sperryville’s Community Group and the county Water and Sanitation Authority moved forward with plans to build a sewer system, the Health Department has allowed the businesses to keep their permits. The Health De partment renews the permits every six months, as long as plans for the sewer system move forward. "WE HOPE that the sewer system will clear up the water," Biddle said. If residents throughout Sperryville hook on to the sewer system, they’ll discontinue the use of privies. “And it’s the privies up on the hill that See Pace 3 Forester’s death probed Investigation in continuing by Augusta County Sheriff’s Department in the death of Forester Evan L. Sharp, 34, a sub-district forester for Rappahannock, Madison and Greene counties, died last Monday while hunting in the George Washington National Forest with friend and co-worker Donald Lee Parrott of Quinque. His body was not discovered until last Wednesday morning on Elliot’s Knob at North Mountain in Augusta County about 1 3/4 miles from his truck. Sharp had apparently been shot by another hunter. A single shot from a high-powered rifle entered through the abdominal area and lodged in the body. According to evidence found in the mountains, it is estimated the bullet which struck Sharp was fired from 80 to 85 yards away. An Augusta Sheriff’s Department spokesman said Monday there was no definite information yet concerning the accident. A check of persons hunting in the area, licenses and big game stamps is under way. Several hunters at campsites in the area have been questioned during the investigation. Reports are awaited from FBI laboratories pending identification of several items of physical evidence found in the area.

SARAH C LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 A welcome report A SMALL ray of sanitywhich, hopefully, will grow to the strength and purposefulness of a bright beacon, pointing the way—has finally peeked through the current financial problems being experienced by state and local governments. A.s sales tax revenues have gone down (during a recession, people buy less—how’s that for keen economic insight?) governments have felt the pinch. Up until now, the reaction has been for assorted politicians to face up to this fact of life by calling for higher taxes. Phooey on the fact that people have less to spend for themselves and their families, these fellows have been saying, in effect; let’s make them spend more for taxes so that all of the bureaucracies which have proliferated in recent years can continue to enjoy life in the style to which they have become accustomed People aren t spending as much to generate the sales tax revenues we need to keep ourselves in expense accounts, feasibility studies, planning conferences and reports in triplicate, nay, quadruplicate? Then let them pay higher taxes! To Mills Godwin’s credit, the Governor of Virginia was one of the first to defy the automatic, let’s-raise-taxes response—even though the size of the bureaucratic vote must give pause to any politican these days. Now the Governor has been joined by what is referred to in the Richmond press as a “blue ribbon” study committee charged with looking at state government and telling us what’s wrong with it. From first reports, the commission on State Governmental Management has done a good job, and it calls for some sweeping changes. Many of these chan ges, most students of the situation agree, call for a halt— even a turnaround—in the growth patterns of state government. There are simply too many bureaucrats falling over each other on a poorly-marked off bureaucratic playing field, adept at getting grants and padding appropriations for their own bureaucratic well-being, but highly questionable in providing needed services and sesired programs. LOUDOUN Supervisor Frank Raflo addressed this problem just at last Friday’s meeting of that county’s governing board. Faced with another mandated rearrangement of regional and areawide bureaucracies, Mr. Raflo wanted to know what this new grouping would do for people, as opposed, to bureaucrats and paper-pushers. The answer was not immediately apparent, although betting men might nave uccii iiieiineu iu uei uicn money on the bureaucrats rather than the people. There always seems to be grant money for studies and conferences and re-groupings which keep bureaucrats busy, but seldom enough for actual programs to relieve suffering, provide succor for th e needy or alleviate need. Let us all hope that the report of the Virginia’s “blue ribbon” commission is a long awaited first step to-1 ward a reversal of the bureaucratic growth which has spread throughout the land with cancerous malevolence in recent years.

He received his BA degree from Parsons College in 1964, and his MBA from the University of Maryland in 1966. Schwarz will answer questions from the audience, and distribute literature prepared by the American Petroleum Institute showing specific ways to conserve energy. Citizen’s view Editor: To The Voters of Rappahannock County: I think we should give a vote of thanks to the ones who were in office and not re-elected. I feel sure that the ones in office at the time of the election had befriended and done some good things to the ones who were in trouble. What he has done as a public servant for the people should be remembered. Let us give praise where praise is due.

Mrs. Summers donated the trees to the grove honoring the late President, Lyndon Baines Johnson.

r H E L I T T L E F 0 x Sperryville water a problem, too From Page 1 are polluting the wells,” Biddle said. The Chairman of Rappahannock’s Water and Sanitation Authority said he was pleased that Sperryville’s application for federal funding was approved in “record time,” three months. The grant for $53,000 went to Mackie Engineering of Charlottesville. The firm will design the Sperryville sewer system and offer several alternatives for that design. “Mackie engineering was highly recommended to us as a firm that could address itself to small, rural systems,” Biddle said. He reminded the Planning Commissioners that Gilbert Clifford and Associates had prepared a plan in 1968 for providing all of Rappahanock with a sewer system. That plan would have had collector lines running along major highways, from Flint Hill, to Woodville, to Amissville. The cost of that system would have been “astronomical,” so the county Supervisors were quite right in rejecting it, Biddle said. They ignored the Sperryville .problem and it went away, Biddle said. But now that the Health Department has authority to close the businesses in the small unincorporated village, the problem can no longer be ignored. THE proposal Mackie Engineering has come up with is “unique” to Virginia, Biddle said. The standard solutions were too costly for Sperryville’s situation. The town is unincorporated, so they can’t pass a bond issue or raise money through avenues available to municiplaities. So any local financinv will have to come from users of the system. And in Sperryville’s case, the median family income for themagiaterial district is only $2,703. A number of widows live in the village it self, several are widows of Veterans in the Spanish American War and their only income is from their late husbands pensions. Another unique aspect of Sperryville’s situation is the location of village in a flood plain. State, local and federal laws preclude any further building in a flood plain. Therefore, a sewer system for Sperryville has to solve an existing problem only, not provide for growth. That has persuaded the State Water Control Board to allow Mackie Engineering and the Rappahannock Water and Sanitation Authority to devise a “unique solution,” a community septic field. “General Daniel Noce is largely responsible for this idea; he’d seen it work on Army bases,” Maury Biddle said. Biddle said the Sperryville sewer system will start at Parkway Gifts. A collector line will run parallel to the river and the highway, picking up effluent from houses and businesses along the way. At the village of Sperryville, additional lines will collect effluent from both sides of the river and from streets within the town. All effluent will be piped to a lagoon in Clifford Miller’s field (in front of the Vepco substation) and will then be taken to a community septic field. “We’ve had to take soil analysis on different properties to decide where to locate the septic field. Since Sperryville is in the flook plain, we’ve had to go outside the immediate Sperryville area, Biddle said. “We’ve looked at property belonging to Jim Bill Fletcher, Pete Estes, LucioKilby, Ned Johnson and others. We ran into a real buzz saw with Lucio Kilby. He said we couldn’t come on his property without a court order. So we got the court order,” Biddle said, adding that no decision has been made on where to locate the septic field. If your house is on fire, whom do you rail? Why, the Fire Department, of course! The Washington Fire Department is now building its own house so that it can better protect your house, hut substantial support is needed from you to complete the job. PLEASE GIVE, PLEASE HELP. IT IS FOR YOU. -Call 675-3716 for details “Once the sewer system is finished, we’re be eligible for grants to state working on the water system, but I hope we won’t need that,” Biddle said. “We hope that will take care of the porblem.” Waltec Masterson was anxious to know how much the Sperryville sewer system will cost the county. Not a thing, Biddle and Supervisor Pete Luke said. The federal government will pay 85%, the state will pay 10% and the users of the system will pay the 5% which is supposed to come from local sources. In most sewer projects, the federal government only pays 75%. Since Sperryville’s median income is so low it is considered a “hardship area” and thus eligible for extra federal funding. “WHAT if the Supervisors don’t approve you plans?” Maslerson asked. They won’t be asked to approve or disapprove, Pete Luke said. They’re not being asked to spend any money, it’s all being handled by the Water and Sanitation Authority, Biddle said. Herbert Barksdale asked how much the hook-up fees will be. Biddle said he didn’t know; that would depend on a number of things potential users of the system, several of the windows for instance, who probably can’t afford the hook-up charge. In that event- there’s a chance they could get a special grant from the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. “What happens if you get part of your federal funding but not all of it?” Walter Masterson asked. “It would be a sorry state of affairs,” Biddle admitted. But he and Luke said that was unlikely. Due to the review process at state and federal funding, no part of the grant comes through unless the money for suxsequent stages is lined up.' Herbert Barksdale picked up on a comment Biddle had made earlier, that it is only a matter of time before the town of Washington is in a similar situation. “I can see several of these proxlems coming up in the future,” Barksdale said. “Why not go ahead with the county-wide system, since that’s what we’re going to need in the future anyway?” Pete Luke hhought it would be better to solve the problems one at a time. Rappahannock’s relatively large lot zoning will preclude similar problems everywhere but in the towns. “And it’ss be better to have several small, no-growth systems that these big collector lines across the county,” Luke said. WHY, when the Sperryville situation is so crucial, was the school board allowed to open a new office in Sperryville and add to the problem? Herbert Barksdale asked. Pete Luke said the school Board’s new offices in the Hy-Way Motel will not add any additional toilets, so it won’t add to the problem. , i„ CHRISTMASTIME a, Mam THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SHOP IN THE VALLEY -And We Have Something For EveryoneAntiques ‘Jewelry • Lamps ‘Paintings.

Local Panorama Realty not the one in news articles PANORAMA Realty, Inc., of Sperryville and Luray, has released a statement that it has “no connection whatever” with a Northern Virginia firm of a similar name which has been the topic of controversial news reports in recent weeks. ‘Joseph R. Bowman, president of Panorama Realty, Inc., said adverse publicity relating to the Panorama Group of real estate companies of the Washington, D. C. area “has had an affect on our business because of the similar names.” “We want to make sure the public - is aware that Panorama Realty, Inc. has no connection whatever with the Panorama Group in Northern Virginia,” Bowman said. He cited a news report in a November 15 edition of the Washington Post which tells of a federal judge’s action to stop “an alleged attempt by the Panorama Group of real estate companies to ‘loot’ Travel Consultants, Inc. (TCI), a new nearly insolvent—firm that is the nations’s largest organizer of conventions and group travel abroad.” The Post report also reported that the judge’s action to name a special caretaker for the Panorama Group was requested by Uie Securities and Exchange Commission, which has been investigating the affairs of the Panorama Group (in the Washington area) and the travel firm. IN A letter to Washington attorney Lykes M. Boykin, Bowman noted that Panorama Realty, Inc. is a Virginia Corporation registered in August, 1972, with a main office in Luray and a branch office in Sperryville. In a November 15 Post article, Boykin is identified as a potential buyer of Panorama Group’s real estate business and claims it will be operated as “Panorama Realty, Inc.,” the identical name of the Luray and Sperryville firm. Bowman has formally requested that Boykin not use this name “as indicated by the Post story.” Thrift shop The Washington Thrift Shop operated by the Ladies Auxiliary of Washington will close December 5 and remain closed until its spring opening April 2, 1976. December 5 will be the last day of business for this year and a special feature is being arranged for that day. “Bring a shopping bag and you may have all the items you can put in it for only $2,” said an Auxiliary member. “This includes anything in the shop except a few specially priced items.” “If you have something to sell immediately get it to the thrift shop prior to December 5. The ladies are accepting saleable articles for the spring opening and they will be picked up if you will call 675-3608. Remember when you are house cleaning to save any marketable items for the shop,” she added.

Shaffer, Game Management Field Coordinator for the Virginia Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries. Turkey hunters are experiencing good success this season and the turkeys themselves are well fed due to a good mass crop in red and pin oaks. Grouse hunters are also doing well this year. This spring’s hatch was a good one, according to Shaffer, and hunters are now benefiting from this crop of grouse. An excellent harvest is the report on deer hunting in areas west of the Blue Ridge. Shaffer reports that there are “lots of hunters” in this area and that the success ratio is high. Hunters on the eastern side of the mountains are having their best luck on the various military reservations which are open to hunting. This is apparently going to be a fine year for the quail hunter in Virginia. Reports indicate that quail shooting is the best in several years and dedicated hunters should be able to find coveys enough to fill their bag in many ar eas of the Commonwealth. THE RABBIT hunting situation is looking up in a few areas this season but the overall picture is still for only spotty success for rabbit hunters. Some areas, however, are reporting more rabbits than last year and in a few places rabbits are actually abundant. Although no firm statistics are yet available on the archery season, preliminary reports indicate that the hunters afield with bow and arrow did very well. The military areas played an important part, with Quantico Marine Base providing archers with 75 deer. BIRTH ANNOUNCED Mr. and Mrs. Randall, E.

The Board has authorized Earth Design, a Fauquier County Design Firm, to undertake a preliminary study into the availability of Federal funds for solar heating of their clinic and administrative building in Culpeper. The building, to be located opposite the old entrance to the Culpeper Hospital, would derive from 40 to 60% of its heating requirements from solar collectors located on the soutnern roof exposure. Funding, if approved, for the solar project would be provided through the Federal Energy Resource and Development Administration.

S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for grant funds for planning and design of a sewage collection and treatment system for Sperryville, George Long of Mackie Engineering Company in 'Charlottesville said on Wednesday. The county Water and Sanitation Authority will ask the Supervisors to file the application since HUD will only consider applications filed by elected governments or agencies, Long said. Sperryville is not an incorporated town, so it has not elected officers, and the county Water and Sanitation Authority members are appointed. That’s why the county Supervisors will be asked to make application for the grant, Long said. CARD OF THANKS The family of M. H.
