Volume XXVin, Number 3 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA • THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1976 FIFTEEN CENTS High school gets a ‘reading lab’ By DAPHNE McCULLOUGH RAPPAHANNOCK High School has begun a fresh approach to student learning problems this year. A modular unit in the center of the school’s courtyard houses the new reading lab, better described as a “communications skill lab,” according to teacher Karl Stndt. Assistant Superintendent T. A. Fleetwood explained that the county sought the federally funded program after standardized testing showed a disparity between the students’ abilities and reading achievement levels. But, according to Fleetwood, the search for a qualified teacher to administer die program was more difficult and took longer than locating the funding. The administration had decided a man would be better for the job in view of the discipline difficulties that most problem readers presented, according to Fleetwood. ■ » • . . Applicants were interviewed throughout the summer with no luck until Karl Studt applied. Fleetwood feels that Studt was well worth the wait and effort. Besides holding a Batchelor of Science degree from VPI, Studt’s Master’s Degree in Education from the University of Virginia includes a major in reading and instruction in the University’s McGuffey Reading Clinic. There are no learning disabled children involved in the reading lab work. “It’s not like they can’t learn,” said Fleetwood. “All the students in the program have the capacity to be good, average readers and are working below their capabilities.” THE 4s students using tne iaD were all referred by their English teachers, said Studt. Standardized reading comprehension testing is used to determine problem areas where the children are deficient. Then Studt uses further specialized testing to put the student in one of the Random House program’s five levels. After Studt identifies the student’s particular problem, he prepares a program perscription that the student follows in individual work. Once Studt feels that the student has mastered the problem area, a check-out test is given. If the student passes, he moves on to the next level. If not he tries again. There’s no stigma attached to repeat work and none of the materials are marked with any special grade designation. Hie lab is full of reading materials not usually associated with a NOTICE The office of the Rappahannock News will be closed for the long holiday weekend beginning Wednesday afternoon through Sunday, opening for usual business hours Monday, November 29. A pleasant Thanksgiving Day and Holiday weekend to ail. traditional classroom. Studt terms them “high interest reading materials. Whit you can get a kid to read, that’s where you have to start,” maintained Studt, explaining the comics, and magazines. One of the program’s goals is to build an independent reading habit in the students. “They have to read two books this six weeks,” said Studt, “and then we have a book conference or they handjjji a written report.” H ^ Q NEWSPAPER reading skills are also encouraged. The students each picked out a continuing news item or subject to follow for an extended period of time. Sport topics appear to have been the first choice with See Page 2

MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 Why ugliness? WHY should every American town and city look alikeugly? Why should the entrance to every community be a hideous hodgepodge of garish lights, oversized billboards, tacky “franchise”, operations (which seek corporate identity not only by the sameness of their signs and electronic advertising, but by their very architecture), and asphalt deserts, also known as parking lots? Why should every town and city be an eyesore, a pocket of pollution, a noisy, traffic-clogged mess from which the residents flee at every opportunity? The answer ought to be an obvious “they shouldn’t”—but then why are the things described so commonplace? Why is a place like Williamsburg possible only as a sealed-off historic capsule, and not as a living community? Why do we worry about the pleasant towns left in Virginia’s Piedmont, fearing that their future is also a neon-lit, gaudy, motorized nightmare of sameness? Americans ought to ask themselves such questions every time they step outside of their doors. They ought to be so painfully aware of the ugliness, the jumble, the chaos that they are determined that it should be done away with. BUT there are many citizens among us who neither see the visual devastation around them, nor care much if they do. They don’t know the difference: Hasn’t it always been this way? As Robert Stipe of the University of North Carolina noted at a recent town planning conference held in Leesburg* there are indications that more and more Americans are becoming aware of what has happened to once lovely and serene communities, and who are determined to arrest the dreadful trend which has created such frightful sights— even turn the process around, if possible. Too often, however, they lament that this country lacks sufficient laws to do what is needed. Nonsense. It’s got plenty of laws; more than enough to do anything in the way of public planning that is required, says Professor Stipe. It’s a point he’s made to local Supervisors and planning officials ever since the first planning workshop to England several years ago. All that is lacking, he says, is a resolve on the part of elected - public officials in America to actually use the power they’ve already got. Public opinion is the key. Once the politicians are convinced that the public is behind them, they’ll take what action is necessary to halt the rape of our landscape— and our townscapes—and help retain the beauty and harmony, both natural and man-made, that once was more commonplace in this country. YOU’RE the public. Let those officials know that you want something better for you and your family than corridors of blatant commercialism as a place in which to live. Let them know you like parks and trees and open space and quiet streets and a channelling of motor traffic where it belongs, and not throughneighborhoods and at the expense of rolling farmland. Let them know, and then maybe they’ll do something about it. □ Gray at sea Navy Electrician’s Mate Fireman Charles E. Gray, 20, son of Mr. and Mrs. Howard Lawson of Route 211, Amissville, has departed Norfolk for a six-month deployment. He is a crew member aboard the destroyer USS Dupont, a Forrest Sherman-class destroyer, 418 feet in length. During her extended deployment, the DuPont will transit the Atlantic Ocean, Indian Ocean, Red Sea, Mediterranean Sea, and the Persian Gulf. While deployed, his ship will be assigned as a unit of the U. S. Middle East Force. A 1974 graduate of Rappahannock County High School, he joined the Navy in June 1974. □ Karl Studt inspects one of his original reading lab study units that he put together on driver safety. Studt designed the unit to help problem readers master the information needed to pass the written exam for a state driver’s license. High school lab’ From Pace 1 newspaper displays on the season s progress lining the walls. An area of particular concern to Studt is teaching his students how to fill out forms—something that they’ll be faced with the rest of their lives, whether they choose to become leisure time readers or not. He has prepared an original study program to teach this skill. The next major project is a six week unit on poetry. The students will be required to pick a poem, memorize it and then give an oral presentation. Studt wasn’t sure how this idea would go over but added “it’s surprising, some of these kids love poetry.” He said he had used lyrics from popular rock songs to illustrate that poetry is not just romantic. HIS success with his problem readers has varied, Studt said. With such an individualized program, he maintained that the classes must be kept small. One of Studt’s classes has only four students and it is this class that has accomplished the most. Less work has been done by another group of 15 students. Fleetwood commented that the administration and regular classroom teachers had noticed an attitudinal change in many of Studt’s reading lab kids. “He’s established an atmosphere that makes the kids want to learn,” concluded Fleetwood. □ RAPP CHATS By RAP OWINGS Extension Agent, Agriculture AREA BEEF MANAGEMENT SCHOOL—I would like to invite you to attend the Area Beef Management School to be held in Syria at Graves Mountain Lodge on Wednesday, December 1, 1976.

Employment directory being compiled LAURIE MARSHALL, Phyllis Stein and Bob Coles of Woodville have come up with an innovative approach to the employment problem in Rappahannock. Within the next two weeks, community post ‘^ offices, stores and gas stations throughout the county will have forms available for information needed to compile the Rappahannock Community Directory. Once finished, the organizers see the Directory as a guide to the resources within the county. The Directory plan is the result of a brainstorming session held during the summer. A group of people got together, most of them young and looking for work, to see if they could come up. with any alternatives to making the long commuter trip to jobs in the metropolitan area. The idea for a listing of community resources seemed the most reasonable attempt towards finding a solution. “We want to know what’s here so we don’t have to leave the county to work,” said Laurie Marshall, the coordinator of the project. She sees the Directory as a possibility for promoting “an exchange in self sufficiency. There’s a lot of talent .and skill here but it’s not very available. No one is organized.” Mrs. Packard to speak LAND-USE planning and its environmental impact will be the topic of the quarterly meeting of the Rappahannock league for Environmental Protection on Friday, December 3, at 8 p.m. at the Court House in Washington, Va., Jean R. Packard, the featured speaker, is an experienced environmentalist who is currently working as consultant on water quality with the National Association of Counties and was formerly the chairperson of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors. Long concerned with the importance of resource conservation, Mrs. Packard has been associated with the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources, with the National School of Forestry and Conservation, and has served as chairperson of the Air Quality Planning Commit tee of the Washington Metropolitan Area Council of Governments as well as with the Environmental Protection Agency. Mrs. Packard has been recognized nationally for her interest and involvement in these matters and was the recipient of the American Motors Professional Conservation Award. The public is invited to the RLEP meeting. □ CORRECTION In a recent issue in the obituary of Joseph Buraker Atkins, who made his home with his son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Atkins near Sperryville, his age should have been listed as 96 years of age instead of 86. The newspaper was misinformed. □ ASCS candidates THE deadline for submitting petitions for candidates in the 1976 Community Committee Elections has ended and as a result the following candidates will appear on the ballot. The candidates for the Rappahannock County Community Committees are as follows: NORTH—Thomas G. Eastham, William D. Fries, Aubrey North, John A. Tapp, and Roland Welch. CENTRAL—Henry Hudson, E. M. Jones, Thomas B. Massie, Louis P. Moore, Jr., and Ian Pryde. SOUTH—James Ashby, A. F. f Cannon, James H. Falls, Raymond M. Johnson, and Earl J. Kilby. Ballots for the 1976 Rappahannock County Community Elections will be mailed to all known eligible voters on November 26, 1976, and must be returned to the Rappahannock County ASCS Office by Monday, December 6, 1976. Votes can be cast for not more than three candidates who appear on the ballot. All eligible producers are urged to take an active part in the election of the Community Committees by voting. If there are any questions concerning the voter eligibility, call or go by the Rappahannock County ASCS Office. □ Eileen M. Day Realtor Announces the opening of her office on Middle Street Washington, Virginia 675-3400 To assist you in selecting country property, residential or commercial are Kerry Smithgall 937-4902 Candy Coombs 675-3485 THE directory would give a prospective employer somewhere to look for the service or skill he needs within. the county. It would also give the person trying to start an independent enterprise a place to find help. Laurie also plans to include a listing of tools and equipment that would be available for use or loan and under what terms. She hopes to find people that are willing to barter what they have for what they need in addition to persons interested in cash transactions only. “This has the potential to cross class lines,” Laurie maintains. She emphasized that the directory is intended to include more than just the younger, poorer segment of the community. Laurie has talked to representatives from Youth Project, a branch of HEW specifically concerned with free lance organizing, in an attempt to find funding for the project. Officials there are trying to help the Woodville group but haven’t made a definite commitment yet because of Congressional funding cutbacks to HEW. IN THE meantime, Laurie has organized the Rappahannock Community Directory Benefit Bazaar, scheduled for December 11 at the old elementary school in Washington. “We hope it will turn out to be a microcosm of the Directory with county people bringing in arts, crafts and baked goods for sale for Christmas gifts.” Participants will be asked to turn a percentage of their sales over to the Directory fund. Anyone interested in the directory can pick up a form from one of the post offices, store or gas stations in the county or can contact Laurie Marshall at 825-6459. Tax deadline The deadline for paying 1976 Rappahannock real estate and personal property taxes will be Monday, December 6. The Rappahannock Treasurer’s office will be open Saturday, December 4, from 8 a.m. until 11 a.m. for the convenience for those who find it difficult to transact business during the week. After the deadline a penalty will be added to the bill.

Notice NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF A PROPOSED TEMPORARY INCREASE IN RATES BY CENTRAL TELEPHONE COMPANY OF VIRGINIA Notice is hereby given to the public that Central Telephone Company of Virginia, on October 27, 1976, filed with the State Corporation Commission of Virginia an application requesting authority to place in effect for telephone service provided on and after November 27, 1976, a temporary surcharge, to remain in effect until such time as a complete investigation can be conducted, and a public hearing held, to determine the need for a permanent rate increase, if any. The temporary surcharge proposed by the Company, if allowed to become effective, would result in a 9.60% surcharge on existing rate schedule charges with the exception of intrastate toll, Wide Area Telephone Service, private line and coin telephone. In its implication, Company states that this temporary surcharge would produce additional gross revenues of $2,359806 on an annual basis and that such additional revenues would be separately accounted for on its books and records in order that Company could refund any amounts, together with interest, found excessive after a full investigation and public hearing to determine its need for a permanent rate increase. Company contends that it needs prompt temporary rate relief because, among other things, it is unable to earn the rate of return authorized by the Commission in its last rate case due to (a) an overall increase in plant investment and an increased investment per telephone, which has led to greater depreciation charges and greater property taxes per revenue producing unit, (b) increases in other costs, not including capital costs, and(c) lower than expected intrastate toll revenue. Company requests that the proposed surcharge go into effect on November 27, 1976, without suspension. However, the Commission, has by order of November 1, 1976, suspended the effective date until January 1, 1977, pending an investigation by its Staff. A hearing will be held, commencing at 10:00 A.M., December 3, 1975, in ffie Commission’s Courtroom, Blanton Building, Richmond, Virginia. The purpose of die hearing will be to receive evidence from the Company and the Commission’s Staff regarding the Company’sneed for a temporary rate increase pnor to a complete investigation and public hearing. CENTRAL TELEPHONE COMPANY OF VIRGINIA U/25 The annual staff will sponsor a photography contest from now until December 10. Rappahannock students must enter photos having to do with school life.

Vocational house project is begun LEADERS of the Piedmont Vocational Education Foundation, Inc. broke ground on October 22 for the Foundation’s first house-building project-a program designed to provide on-the-job experience for carpentry and related-trade students in the regional vocational education schools. Students at Piedmont Technical Education Center on Route 15 South of Culpeper have dug a basement and are preparing the foundation for the three-bedroom rambler type home they will construct within the next 18 months. The house is intended to sell on the open market for $25,000 to $30,000. A two-acre building lot located on Route 648 in Culpeper County, only two miles from the Piedmont Technical Education Foundation, Inc. Profits from the sale of this first student-built home on this site will be channeled entirely into future house-building or other vocational education projects.
