Rappahannock News, August 26, 1976

Volume XXVII, Number 41 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA • THURSDAY, AUGUST 26, 1976 FIFTEEN CENTS Farm product sales totalled $3,473,000 THE MARKET VALUE of all agricultural products sold by the 266 farms in Rappahannock County in 1974 amounted to $3,473,000, according to a preliminary report of the 1974 Census of Agriculture released today by the U. S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of the Census. The figures are for farms qualifying under the definition first used for the 1959 Census of Agriculture: A farm includes all agricultural operations conducted at any time during the census year under the control of an individual management, provided that sales of agricultural products amounted to, or normally would amount to, at least $250 for places of less than 10 acres or $50 for places of 10 acres or more. Figures for farms with sales of $2,500 or more are shown for 1974 and 1969. These farms accounted for $3,362,000 of all agricultural products sold in 1974 and $2,361,000 in 1969. There were 144 of these farms in 1974 compared with 148 in 1969. The average size Turner enters guilty plea Lawrence Turner of Huntly, charged with breaking and entering Hackley’s Store and house in Amissville and with armed robbery of Mr. and Mrs. Hackley, entered a plea of guilty in Rappahannock County Circuit Court Wednesday morning. Judge R.V. Snead asked for a pre- sentence report and has set sentencing for November 8, opening day of the November term of court. The offense took place on the night of July 2. After pleading not guilty to the charges, Turner’s legal counsel John R. Prosser of Winchester made a motion for a change of venue. A hearing and polling of the 30 jurors called followed and Judge Snead denied the motion. At this time Turner changed his plea to guilty and wished his case to be heard by the judge. At this time the jurors were dismissed and the hearing followed with Sheriff W.A. Buntin testifying, as well as Mr. and Mrs. E.G. Hackley. Russell" Leonard Jordan of Amissville who was with Turner and also charged gave testimony, too. Jordan had been an accomplice in the crimes and was sentenced to five years, suspended, in court last week, with probation for the same length of time.D decreased from 517 to 450 acres during the five years. The value per acre climbed from $298 to $615, raising the average value per farm from $153,925 to $277,134. The market value of livestock and their products on farms of $2,500 or more of sales was $1,493,000 in 1974; poultry and their products, $3,000; and crop sales, including nursery products, hay and forest products, $1,866,000. Farms reporting less than $1,000 in sales numbered 27 in 1974. The value of agricultural products sold on these farms totaled $10,000.□ i ... iii 111 iiTfniliiii ii man Aerobatic pilot and Master of Ceremonies Ron David, of Flint Hill, stands on the wing of the powerful Stearman biplane used in the Flying Circus’s wing-walking act.

BEST MOTORISTS driving along route 17 near Bealeton, in Southern Fauquier, are sometimes startled on Sunday afternoons when their eyes catch the sight of a vintage biplane doing low-altitude barrel-rolls with—yes!—with a man standing on top of the upper wing! The show, of course, is being performed for the pleasure of spectators filling the bleachers at the Flying Circus Aerodrome nearby. The Flying Circus was born in the summer of 1970 when a group of local-area aviators decided to incorporate and re-create an airshow using World War I airplanes flying above an airfield construct ed to a World War I theme. Their hope was that an interest in the aviation history of that era would make their show a viable operation. However, they found that many objected vocally to their efforts, which, their detractors complained, only tended to re-kindle old animosities which World War I had generated between the German and American peoples. It was soon apparent to. the Flying Circus corporation that their operation wasn’t viable. The maintenence and operations cost of their fleet of World War I airplanes was exceeding the gate receipts. Besides, they felt the show didn’t need the adverse publicity it was getting. When a buy er happened along who was interested in purchasing the ancient airplanes, they struck a deal. Reorganization was the aviators’ next effort. They decided to build their show around those fabulous flying machines of the late 1920’s and 1930’s, which gained fame barnstorming all over the country. Stockholders in Flying Circus furnished their own airplanes for the Flying Circus to use. The idea has been successful, and one can spot license plates on vehicles from many states on any Sunday afternoon as the spectators now flock to fill the bleachers. OVERNIGHT camping and picnic facilities are available for families who want to enjoy a full day’s outing. The Flying Circus maintains a small museum to display a collection of aviation memorabilia, plus a snack bar and gift shop. Admission is $4 for adults and $1 for children under 12. The gates open at 10 a.m. for the picnickers, the camera buffs and those who want to go for an airplane ride or just visit with the aviators who put on the show. Both before and after the airshow, one can purchase tickets for an airplane ride in one of the open-cockpit biplanes. A regular ride (without any hair raising thrills) costs $12. For the adventurous souls who think they’d enjoy the thrill (and it is a superthrill) of an aerobatic ride, the See Pace 3. Flying Circus biplanes await their pilots on the flight-line prior to opening their barnstorming show.

MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 Life in the country HERE it is the August dog days, and things are supposed to be slow and pokey out here in the country—and so many things are going on that it pure wears a country newspaper out trying to keep up with everything. The people who complain about “nothing to do” in the country must be living in a fog. Fairs, plays, jousting tournaments, 4-H activities, horse shows, craft exhibits, church suppers, picnics, bluegrass concerts, Bicentennial things of one sort or another, steam train excursions—all or a combination of such happen ings have been going on in this part of the Piedmont practically all summer. Who can say, in all honesty, that there is “nothing to do”? And the something-to-do’s that we’ve mentioned haven’t even touched on what can often be the most entertaining performances of all—meetings of local governing bodies. And of those, there is scarcely a night that goes by (complaining staff members will attest) without a meeting, hearing, work session or what-haveyou. “Nothing to do”? Afraid of stagnating out here in the country? You must be kidding! Library contest planned Mrs. Mary Jamieson, a trustee of Rappahannock County Library, attended a joint meeting of the faculties of Rappahannock’s high and elementary schools Tuesday to assure the cooperation of the library with school projects and programs and to discuss the annual book review contest sponsored by the county library. Of the book review contest, Mrs. Jamieson said, “It is hoped that you will find it helpful to knit these contests into your special assignment schedule and to encourage student participation in the contest as a voluntary means of teaching them how to use public library facilities to get at facts and orientations they will need to perform in areas of their choice and their careers.” ‘‘Mr. Norton has indicated that bus service to the Rappahannock Library can be arranged when considered necessary,” she continued. In two previous library contests elementary student participation was enthusiastic. This was believed to be so because of the strong teacher support, reported Mrs. Jamieson. The number of high school students taking part were disappointingly low so the ground rules and judging criteria will be broadened, she said. It is hoped that the faculty of the high school will find it useful to direct the students attention to the benefits of participation in the contests.□ BLEP meeting The annual business meeting of the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection will feature an illustrated talk by John Trott on “Birds and a Changing Environment,” beginning at 8p.m. Friday, September 3, at the county court house in Washington, Va.

Extension Forage Specialist. I consider Harlan to be one of the top Agronomists in the East. And I believe his discussion of the broomsedge problem will be of interest to many Rappahannock landowners. CONTROLLING BROOMSEDGE IN PASTURES—Tall, brown clumps of broomsedge appear to be thriving in many Virginia pastures. This pest has always been a problem in many fields in Virginia, but for the last two or three years it has become even more prevalent. A commonly encountered question from farmers is, “why has the broomsedge gotten so bad and what can I do to get rid of it?” The broomsedge plant is a clump-type perennial grass which lives for three to five years once it becomes established. It is of relatively low quality once it reaches a height of 6 to 8 inches and livestock will not eat it if they are able to find other forage to graze. This enables the plant to grow and establish itself without being held back by grazing. On the other hand, livestock will graze the plant while it is in a young and tender vegetative condition in early Spring or after it is mowed. If the plants are grazed frequently, they are weakened and become less competitive. Broomsedge has the ability to grow on hot, dry soils which are often quite shallow. On these types of soils improved species such as orchardgrass and bluegrass are usually not able to be productive or even to survive, thus leaving much of the soil surface vulnerable to invasion by broomsedge. Another characteristic of this weedy grass is its ability to grow on soils which are relatively low in phosphorus and potash and which also may have a soil pH below 5.5. It is under these condition of low fertility, shallow soils and either undergrazing or overgrazing that broomsedge is most prevalent. Applying lime to raise the soil pH to at least 6.0 and applying phosphate and potash as needed are the first steps to take in attempting to reduce broomsedge populations. If the pasture sod is very thin, it may be necessary to renovate and reseed in order to improve the sod. The combination of fertilizing, liming, and reseeding as needed will usually result in a strong, vigorous sod which will crowd out the broomsedge plants, especially if the pasture is grazed heavily enough or mowed to keep the plants short and rapidly growing. Overgrazing of pastures to the extent that the desirable plants are weakened also gives broomsedge an opportunity to become established. This may seem to conflict with the statements made earlier on the need to graze closely so that the broomsedge will be grazed. However, a common situation is for pastures to be undergrazed in the spring during the flush growth and then overgrazed during the summer and early fall. This combination allows the broomsedge to go ungrazed in the spring so that it becomes tall and woody. Then when heavy grazing occurs in the summer, the desirable plants are overgrazed and weakened while the tall broomsedge is of such low quality that it is not eaten and continues to grow. While broomsedge is generally a much more serious problem in pasture, it can also invade fields which are being used for hay. Here again a stand weakened by poor soil fertility is the most susceptable to invasion by broomsedge. Usually, even though broomsedge does invade such hay fields a good fertilization program and continued mowing for hay will usually reduce the population of this weedy grass. In some areas burning is a common method for cleaning off the^ broomsedge in early Spring. This will effectively remove the brown, dead top growth of the weed but will also injure and greatly weaken the desirable plants present in the sod. For this reason, this is not a recommended practice. In summary, the best way to protect a pasture or hayfield from invasion by broomsedge is to maintain a thick, productive sod which will not enable the weed to become established. This is done by a sound liming and fertilization program, coupled with proper grazing management to utilize the pasture in the Spring and prevent overgrazing during the summer and early fall.D RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS BASKETBALL SCHEDULE 1976 Sept. 2 (Thurs.)

Tutweiler Brothers had the best antique car; they are from Culpeper. □ A fun-filled show weekly near Bealeton From Page 1 price is $30—and most will say, worth every penny! As one writer once said, “you join the tumbling mirth of sun-split clouds and do a hundred things you have not dreamed of.” Flying Circus’s Master of Ceremonies, Ron David, who lives in Flint Hill, writes in the Flying Circus’s air show program that their air show is “One giant leap—backward.” He points out that “Flying Circus” was a name often used by the early-day barnstormers, which was copied from the name given Baron von Richthofen’s nortorious Imperial German fighter squadron in World War I. Ron further states; “There are only two flying shows in this country that strive to be truly different. One is an aerial exhibition of very early aircraft upinRhinebeck, N.Y. The other is the show you see at Bealeton.” SHOW TIME is 2:30 and it begins as Gunnery Sergeant Hank Henry of the USMC steps off the wing of a white 450 horse-power Stearman biplane 3,000 feet above the airfield. As Hank’s specially designed parachute blossoms one can see a United States flag trailing in the wind from Hank’s leg. Regardless of the wind velocity, < * Hank always makes a stand-up spot landing directly in front of the bleachers. Hank’s job in the Marine Corps is testing parachutes. He is very good at it and with more than 1,250 jumps, is the only Marine so employed. Then the afternoon is shattered by the thunderous sound of airplane engines as pilots make two consecutive formation takeoffs. After a low-altitude formation fly-by, the planes break off and fly in trail for an exhibition of balloon-busting. The ground crew H.jl._ ..._.-•. ‘ ’ • . One of several demonstrations of formation flying in pre-World War n biplanes by the barnstorming pilots of Bealeton’s Flying Circus Aerodrome. releases helium filled balloons as each pilot dives toward the airfield attempting to burst the balloon with his propeller. When that fun is over the Rev. John R. Frizzell, Jr., rector of the Annandale Episcopal Church and also president of Flying Circus Aerodrome, does a ribbon cutting routine in an ancient “Tiger Moth” biplane that he acquired from Australia. Mr. Frizzell tosses out a long roll of what the master of ceremonies calls “a common household product” and then dances his Tiger Moth around the sky attempting to cut the “ribbon” at least three times before it gets below treetop height. THE flying and aerobatic demonstrations are neatly interspersed with numerous comedy routines, including a “stolen airplane” act put on by pilot-mechanic and museum curator Charlie Culp that has to be seen to be believed. He does low altitude aerobatics and ground maneuvers in a yellow Piper Cub that even veteran pilots marvel to watch. Highlight of the daredevil acts Pilot Norm Moore of Amissville, a United Airlines captain, taxies his beautifully restored Stearman biplane past the flagpole during show-opening ceremonies at the Flying Circus Aerodrome. comes when Sergeant Hank Henry climbs into the front cockpit of the big white 450-horsepower Stearman, with Ron David at the controls, for their wing-walking routine. During flight, Sergeant Henry literally climbs all over that airplaine. Using a specially built wingwalker’s harness on top of the if)per wing, Henry rides through loops and barrel rolls then as the plane dives low across the field the crowd gasps audibly as they see Henry do his “flying flag” routine where he hangs onto the structure above the upper wing with only his hands while his entire body trails aft in the wind above the head of pilot Ron David. On the next pass the spectators gasp again as they see the nimble Sergeant Hen is once again opened so that the Kids, young and old alike, are free to roam among the wide assortment of Stearmans, Wacos, Fleets and other vintage airplanes to take pictures and visit with the pilots. After one has inspected all of the aircraft there is time once again for more biplane rides with the plane and pilot of your choice. The pilots are superb and the ground crew is ever conscious of passengers’ safety, as they outfit each person with helmet and goggles before escorting them to and from the plane’s front cockpit. LATE in the afternoon, when the wind has pretty well died down, a giant hot-air balloon is usually Discussing the upcoming airshow are, left to right, “Tex” Goppert, a United Airlines pilot who flies a 1929 Fleet biplane in the Flying Circus and stands in as Master of Ceremonies when Gunnery Sergeant Hank Henry, U.S.M.C., and pilot Ron David, of Flint Hill, put on their sky-diving and wing-walking routines. ry hanging by his knees from the leading edge of the lower wing. THEN suddenly out of nowhere, and with a terrible roar, comes the Flying Circus’s only concession to the modern air age. It is R. C. “Bob” Murphy (Lieutenant Colonel, U. S. Army) in his Japanese Zero for a highperformance aerobatic display. Murphy’s airplane is actually a modified 600-horsepower T-6 military trainer that was made to look exactly like the infamous Japanese “Zero” of World War n. Murphy acquired his airplane after it had been used for the filming of the movie, “Tora, Tora, Tora.” It is nearly 4:30 before the air show comes to its climactic conclusion. Then the flight-line inflated and rides are given in it. At first the rides are on a tether, then finally there is at least one free flight in any direction that the wind is blowing. The giant hot-air bags provide a colorful finale to a most colorfully nostalgic day. During the weekend of August 27, 28 and 29, the Flying Circus will sponsor a hot air balloon festival in addition to the normal airshow on the 29th. During that period, Fauquier County skies could be dotted with brightly decorated hotair bags, as the balloons compete in races and other activities. On balance, these days, it’s hard to find any activity catering to family fun and entertainment that is any more exciting and captivating than spending a day with the Flying Circus.

Ihe last day to do this is October 2. Mrs. Mahan noted that if a voter fails to advise the registrar of his change of residence from one place to another, and the move occurred more than 30 days prior to the election, such voter may not be permitted to vote. Virginia law requires that a person, to be entitled to vote, must be a citizen of the United States, 18 years of age, a resident of the Commonwealth and of the precinct in which he offers to vote 30 days prior to the election and must be duly registered and otherwise qualified under the Constitution. “I encourage all voters of the Commonwealth to make certain that they are registered to vote in the precinct in which they are residing in order that they will be qualified to vote in the November 2 election. If a person is not registered in the election district where he lives, he should immediately appear before the General Registrar of the county or city where he is currently living and change his BIRTH ANNOUNCED Mr. and Mrs. Ray Frazier, Jr. of Boston announce the birth of a son, Michael Wayne, on August 15, 1976 in Culpeper Memorial Hospital.

Voters are very unhappy when they go to the polls and the election official informs them that they cannot vote because they no longer have residency in that precinct,” Mrs. Mahan said. ‘‘If we can just reach people to change their voting registration at the time they move, everyone otherwise qualified to vote will be able to participate in all elections.”□ CHEVETTES $3125 TACK ABOUT ECONOMY 1 39 MPG HIGHWAY 27MPGCmf EPA RATING STOCK No. 176 PIEDMONT CHEVROLET-OLDSMOBILE, INC B14 N.
