The winners in the polltaking Tuesday will be the nominees of the party in the general election in November. Republican nominees who were elected in convention Saturday are urging their supporters to stay home Tuesday. The Democratic candidates are: FOR GOVERNOR, Henry Evans Howell and Andrew Pickens Miller. LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR: Ira Lechner, Richard “Major” Reynolds and Charles “Chuck” Robb. ATTORNEY GENERAL: Edward Lane, John Melnick, John Schell and Shad Solomon. The governor’s race has been dubbed the “Andy and Henry Show” with irrepressible populist Henry Howell, 56, trying to repeat the victory he won for lieutenant governor in 1971. Miller, 44, and twice* ! I • f Miller cast himself as the party moderate and set about compiling a record $900,000 primary campaign budget. Howell, who styles himself HENRY HOWELL ANDREW MILLER GOVERNOR CANDIDATES elected attorney general, was named the Outstanding American Attorney General in 1976. “the people’s candidate” and seeks out and dramatizes “grass roots” support, had trouble raising half of the $600,000 in funds he sought. LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR. First announced was Richard “Major” Reynolds II of Richmond’s Robertshaw Controls Company. Reynolds, 42, has styled himself “a new kind of (Virginia) candidate, a businessman, not a lawyer.” Del. Ira Lechner of Arlington has tried to dramatize his campaign by walking about the state. He has pledged an assault on higher taxes by helping to reform the budget-making process. Charles S. (Chuck) Robb, 37, of McLean is the son-inlaw of the late President Lyndon lohnson. He has made concern for senior citizens one of the cornerstones of his race and has won endorsement of legislative figures, including State Senate Majority Leader Adelart Brault. (Continued on Page 4) Chapter Ten Funds Restored “I can’t understand how you can expect services to continue” without granting the increase in funding requested by Chapter 10, said Rappahannock Mental Health and Retardation Board member George Muth. After hearing from Muth, Chapter 10 director Howard Leiberman . and others, the Rappahannock Supervisors voted at last Thursday’s meeting to restore $464 cut previously from the Mental Health budget. Muth came to the meeting not only to protest the cuts made in Chapter 10’s original budget but also in response to a letter from the Supervisors objecting to the manner in which the nutrition program for the elderly began in the county. “Does the $464 increase include funds for the nutrition program?” asked Supervisor Chairman Pete Luke. “There never has been a request from a county anywhere in the state for funds for the nutrition program,” answered Muth. He noted that the original request for nutrition program funds denied by the Supervisors two years ago didn’t come from Chapter 10. (At the May 1, 1975 Board meeting, Tom Helsel, Human Resources Planner for Planning District Nine, asked the Rappahannock Supervisors for $414 in “seed money” to help establish an Area Agency on Aging, under who’s direct auspices the nutrition program is conducted.) In regard to the Board’s recently stated opposition to the nutrition program, Muth told the Supervisors “we’ve never had anything in writing from you although you decided in secret session that you didn’t want the program.” Frances Thornton, Rappahannock Health Department nurse, informed the Supervisors that the county wasn’t even “paying for our own time for clinic cases’’ that included an increased load from children referred by the school system. $40 For Aging Services Leiberman noted that the Chapter Ten request covered Rappahannock’s share of the total local match for funding of Mental Health, Retardation and Aging services and included an appropriation for $40 to the Aging budget. The increase of $464 reflects a set percentage, applied equally, on each county’s current contribution, said Leiberman. He reported that the Chapter Higher Litter Fine Proposed ‘‘The trash problem is getting out of hand,” reported Rappahannock Supervisor Chairman Pete Luke at last Thursday’s Board meeting. “We paid SI,060 for trash on the ground this month.” In addition to tossing refuse on the ground, county residents are putting bumables, dead animals, garbage, tires and large household furniture equipment into the dumpsters, said Luke. Additional dumpster sites are needed but there’s no room at the Huntly location, he noted, while the site in Amissville will eventually have to be vacated when highway work begins. Luke said he was working with Resident Highway Engineer Don Askew on the possibility iusing abandoned state d right-of-ways for ipster locations. “There are only so many solutions to the problem,” he added. If neither private nor public space is available, the result will be no service. Supervisor Clarence Baldwin suggested that a man be deputized to police the dumpster sites and write tickets with violators taken to court. “We’re spending $1000 anyway to clean the places up,” said Baldwin, adding that the money would be better spent for a special trash deputy’s salary. “The last time somebody was apprehended, he was fined only $15,” commented Luke. "Couldn’t we set a minimum fine?’’ asked Baldwin. Commonwealth Attorney George Davis suggested that the Supervisors rewrite the trash ordinance, possibly establishing minimum punishment of a $250 fine or 30 days in jail. Luke noted that from September, 1973 through Mayv 1977, the county had spent $18,230 to pick up trash off the ground. He agreed to work with Davis on rewriting the trash ordinance and to continue efforts with the Highway Department to locate containers op right-ofways. “People also need to be educated,” added Supervisor H. B. Wood. “They’re bringing the wrong things to the dumpsters and not only that—they’re bringing the right things and putting them in the wrong place.” Ten Board planned to conduct a cost study on services received by each county sometime in the fall. “Next year’s request will be based on the services the county receives,” he said. Leiberman predicted that the cost study would show Rappahannock receiving considerably more in services than money put in. By not restoring the $464 cut, he maintained that the county would fall further behind in paying it’s fair share. “If the increase is not granted, then we’ll have to ask other counties to subsidize Rappahannock or else reduce services here.” Commonwealth Attorney George Davis interjected that the courts were calling on Chapter Ten for services more now than in the past. “They are performing a very useful service,” he noted, particularly since the district has no halfway houses or other similar facilities. Sally Stemple, Director of the Area Agency on Aging, told the Supervisors that Chapter Ten’s $40 contribution to the Aging budget was applied to administrative costs and services that included blood pressure checks (Continued on Page 4) Davis Charges Time Misused Sheriff’s Policies Again Questioned “I would be very much opposed to any additional full or part-time deputy,” Rappahannock Commonwealth Attorney George Davis told the Supervisors after Sheriff William Buntin repeated his previous request for a new deputy. Davis charged that the Sheriffs Department currently spent “70 per cent of their time patrolling highways, which is not proper.” In the past, Davis has advised the Supervisors against paying mileage charges for policing procedures that he deems improper. At the February meeting, he formally notified the Board of his intention to sue the county if such practices weren’t abandoned. He included patrolling or policing highway traffic and “patrolling or policing businesses or certain residences, unless a complaint has been received that a crime has been committed or is about to be committed at such location” as suspect categories of local law enforcement. When the Supervisors continued to pay mileage claims that he opposed, Davis asked the State Attorney General to authorize an investigation by the State Police of mileage claims submitted by Sheriff Buntin. At that time, Davis repeatedly told the News he wouldn’t comment on the situation until the investigation was completed. Davis Alledges Discrepancies The Commonwealth Attorney apparently changed his mind at Thursday’s Board meeting. After stating his opposition to Buntin’s request for an additional deputy, Davis said “the investigation is not completed but I’m satisfied in my own mind that it will show a large amount of discrepancy.” Davis Says County Has Plan Rappahannock Commonwealth Attorney George Davis informed the Supervisors at last Thursday’s Board meeting that the county does not have to meet state requirements on adopting a Comprehensive Plan by 1980. Rappahannock already has such a plan, said Davis. “If you read the statute, you’ll see that a comprehensive plan consists of a zoning ordinance, subdivision ordinance, maps on flood plains and maps that show residential, agricultural and conservation areas. We have every bit of that in our ordinances,” claimed Davis. Davis’s remarks were occasioned by a report from Supervisor Chairman Pete Luke on a request from the county Planning Commission for a joint meeting with the Board. Luke told the Board that the Planners wanted guidance on how they should proceed in their work. The Planning Commission, when created in 1962, was charged with the collection of data for formulating a comprehensive plan as a general guide for county growth, said Luke. “Now, wait a minute,” interrupted Davis. “You wait a minute. I’ve got the floor now. I’m the chairman anyway,” Luke responded. He continued with a warning that the time allowed for completion of a comprehensive plan was rapidly disappearing. “We’re running out of rope. We’re right at the end of the rope. . .Let’s start doing our homework.” Confusion Exists After Luke finished, Davis noted that confusion on the mandated comprehensive plan existed not only in Rappahannock County but throughout the state. “People don’t understand what a comprehensive plan is. They don’t understand the distinction between a comprehensive plan and a master plan, between a comprehensive plan and zoning and subdivision ordinances.” The state requirement for localities to adopt a comphrehensive plan “doesn’t apply to counties that have zoning and subdivision ordinances—only to those that have nothing,” Davis maintained. Then this means that Rappahannock County has had a comprehensive plan since 1962, commented Supervisor H. B. Wood. Davis agreed. "You can call it a comprehensive plan, a master plan or a zoning ordinance. It all boils down to a land use plan.” After the state legislature mandated a plan, Rappahannock was one of the first jurisdictions to comply and had such a plan drawn up in three or four months, said Davis. Warning Against Master Plan “What they’re trying to tell us we need is a master plan,” he continued. Davis warned against following this route. Under the county’s current ordinances and regulations, the Board of Supervisors “acts as a governing body and doesn’t even have to explain its motives” in dealing with legislative duties, such as rezonings, said Davis. He maintained that legislative action allows the Supervisors latitude. Adopting a master plan would force the Board into administrative action governed strictly by regulations, said Davis. Beet In State "We have the best comprehensive plan in the state of Virginia. What we don’t have is a master plan and we’re extremely fortunate not to have one,” Davis claimed. Adoption of a master plan would result in special price tags put on acreage planned for eventual residential, commercial and industrial development, he noted. “We do not have a comprehensive plan, according to state regulations,” countered Luke, adding that he didn’t want to argue with Davis. He called the adoption of the county’s zoning and subdivision ordinances a reaction to the “crisis situation” that existed in 1962 and warned against waiting for a similar set of circumstances before acting on a comprehensive plan. “I’m only a lawyer. You’re the judge of the Supreme Court,” concluded Davis. tm A PLAQUE HONORING Mrs. Mary M. Quaintance, principal of Rappahannock County Elementary School, was placed Tuesday in the vestibule of the building by a representative group of students of the school. A member of each class joined Mrs. Lynne Baines, an instructor, in making the presentation to Mrs. Quaintance, at right, with L. M. Carter III, assistant principal. Mrs. Quaintance will retire this year after holding teaching and administrative positions for fifty years in public schools. V'-. , “When will the Board know the results of the investigation?” asked Supervisor Chairman Pete Luke, after Davis failed to elaborate further on his charges. “As soon as it’s completed,” Davis answered, adding that he expected formal word in approximately two weeks. “Mr. Davis just made the statement that 70 per cent of our time is spent patrolling highways,” said Sheriff Buntin. “I don’t believe * Continued on Page 5| SETTING THE PACE for the kick-off drive to acquire fundi? for a new track at Rappahannock County High School are track program participants, left to right, Danny Jett, Dawn Keithley, Janice Aylor and Curtis Nichols. A group has organized under the name of PAL to further the cause of the track group. Booster Club Organized They’re off and running—so to speak, for it is difficult to learn pacing by leaping ditches, dodging traffic, running up hills and through mud puddles, say the students involved in track activities at Rappahannock County High School. An organization of; interested citizens called PAL (Panther Athletic League) has been formed to assist in securing a track at the local high school, a track which will give the young athletes the training that is needed to excel. In past years RCHS has fared well in track considering that it is the only school in the district without a track. A state champion team evolved here a few years ago; the boys were district, champs three years ago and the girls were fourth in the state last year. Training without a track then competing on one, as RCHS track members must, is a decided disadvantage. So PAL has been organized and officers elected as follows: president, Henry Hudson; vice president, Mary Frances Fannon; donations chairman, Ned Johnson; treasurer, Ann Spieker; secretary, Nancy Secrist; fund raising, Betty Jones; building, Jerry Freeman. Additional members are Lou Raney, Jim Secrist, Eileen Dwyer, Karl Studt, Elizabeth Johnson and Don Keithley. Several fund raising ac tivities are planned and include a polo game at Fannon Field at Laurel Mills on Sunday, June 19 at 3 p.m. Wakefield Country Day School will also share in proceeds from this. Profits from tockets sold by RCHS track members and PAL members will go toward the track team as well as half the gate take. Community members are encouraged to buy tickets in support of the project and to see an exciting polo game. Track members will also sell refreshments. Contribution to the track fund may be sent to Ned. Johnson, P. O. Box 211, Sperryville, Va. 22740. Be a PAL—support the RCHS track! L County Has High Growth Rate Rappahannock County’s population increase between 1973 and 1975 exceeded both the state growth rate and the growth rate of the other four counties in RappahannockRapidan Planning District Nine, according to census information released by the Planning District Commission. Between 1973 and 1975, the county gained 601 new residents, an increase of 11.7 per cent while the state growth rate for the same period was 7.1 per cent. Culpeper County’s increase was 6.7 per cent, Fauquier’s 3.7 per cent, Madison’s 4.6 per cent and Orange’s 3.8 per cent. Blood Donations Asked The Red Cross Bloodmobile scheduled for Thursday, June 16, at Trinity Parish House in Washington, is labeled a “Mini” Bloodmobile but the need is “Maxi!” A resident of Flint Hill, Brereton J. Wood, better known as “Brue” will undergo open heart surgery in the near future at Johns Hopkins Hospital. It is hoped that blood collected at the Washington Bloodmobile will amply replace the many pints required for such an operation. Those wishing to designate their blood to ‘Brue’ should inform the volunteer who registers donors at the Bloodmobile. For additional information call the Chapter office at 347-1620.

Comprehensive Plan Rappahannock Commonwealth Attorney George Davis had some surprise news for the Supervisors at last Thursday’s meeting—the county will not have to meet the state’s 1980 deadline for adoption of a comprehensive plan. Davis told the Board that Rappahannock already has such a plan, comprised of the county’s zoning and subdivision ordinances. Davis recently gave this same advice to the Orange County Supervisors. According to the Orange County Review, Davis appeared at meetings there on May 10 and 31. He informed the Board that Orange County’s zoning ordinance qualified as a “land use plan’’ under guidelines established in the Virginia Code and met requirements for a comprehensive plan, necessary before the county could enact “land use” taxation. However, Orange County Commonwealth Attorney Henry Lee Carter disagreed. According to the Review, Lee received a ruling from the Attorney General’s office that held the county must adopt a comprehensive plan before “land use” could be enacted and that the Orange zoning ordinance did not fulfill the comprehensive plan requirement. Orange Supervisor Chairman R. Lindsay Gordon informed Davis that his Board would defer to Carter's opinion, according to the paper. Rappahannock’s Supervisor Chairman also doubts that this county’s zoning and subdivision ordinances qualify legally as a comprehensive plan. It bears checking into further. An Attorney General’s office spokesman reported on Tuesday that they had not been asked for a ruling on Rappahannock’s ordinances. “Right now, we’d have to defer to your Commonwealth Attorney’s opinion. We don’t have the local materials here in hand.” He volunteered that the Attorney General’s office would comply with a formal request from the proper authorities to determine if Rappahannock’s ordinances met the requirements called for in a comprehensive plan. The Board of Supervisors should make the necessary formal request. If Davis is right and if Rappahannock citizens feel that the existing ordinances offer adequate tools for controlling and guiding growth, the county will save time and money by skipping a comprehensive plan. If he’s wrong, the Supervisors need to know so that work on the plan can begin. Chapter Ten Funds Restored (Continued from Page 1) by a public health nurse, a newsletter for senior citizens and counseling on financial and housing problems. The county’s local match for the nutrition program is covered by participant fees, she added. Visits Requested The Board voted unanimously to reinstate $464 for Chapter Ten in the county budget and Chairman Luke requested that someone from Chapter Ten visit the Supervisor’s meetings every three or four months to keep the Board informed on what’s going on. “One of the things we’re trying to guard against is having too many overlapping functions with people getting into each other’s way,” said Luke. He suggested that the other Supervisors visit the nutrition site if they questioned the need for the program. “There are people in this county in dire straits from a social point of view,” Luke maintained. The attitude has been that families should take care of their own but the current generation doesn’t—or can’t—subscribe to this principal, he said. “Everybody’s busy making a living and there’s no time to visit dad or granddad,” particularly when they live miles away, said Luke. Sally Stemple reported that she had received an inquiry on institutional care through Welfare from an older woman for an elderly relative who resided with her. Stemple said she investigated other solutions and per- __ suaded the relative to participate in the Senior Citizens nutrition program. “This gave the family a break that they needed,’’ she said, adding that she had received no further requests for institutional care. “I’d like to point out the savings to the county from not having to institutionalize” the elderly helped by the Nutrition program,” stud Luke Camp Volunteers Needed Mentally retarded children in Culpeper and Rappahannock Counties will have the opportunity to attend a day camp for a week this summer. Camp Rap, sponsored by Mental Retardation Services of the RappahannockRapidan Community Services Board, will be held at Camp Hazel June 17-July 1 from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. each day. Anyone interested in helping with the camp is welcome, as it will be staffed Mental 1 entirely by local volunteers, people are needed who would be willing to provide transportation, help prepare lunches, serve as lifeguards, or work directly with the children in their activities. Each volunteer will be expected to be responsible for only two children. A volunteer workshop will be held June 15 to train the volunteers to work with the children. Anyone who would like to help with Camp Rap should contact Thelma Washington or Cindy May at lealth Meet 825-8284. A swimming pool, baseball diamond, volleyball court, and outdoor playground equipment are available at Camp Hazel for Camp Rap’s use. Children will be able to improve their social and motor skills through playing kickball, softball, soccer, and other games. They will also get to swim and work on arts and crafts projects at camp. July 1st will be set aside as Parents’ Day so that the children may bring their parents to camp for the day.

The Little Fox n *~*r¥ RappahaaoMk Noon Stall Photo/JohaTohr Our Rappahannock Heritage Letters To The Editor Welfare Department Praised Dear Editor: The enclosed letter was received by the agency and brought to my attention. I hope you will print the letter as it shows the impact of news coverage of Rappahannock’s efforts to balance bureaucracy with local needs. Sincerely, Becky BurkeEligibility Worker Rappahannock Welfare Department Attn: Becky Burke Washington, Virginia 22747 Dear Ms. Burke, As a hiker I have ventured up and down Old Rag Mountain, an attraction with which you are doubtless quite familiar. I have also made a point to pick up a copy of the Rappahannock News whenever I am in the area; the article in the June 2 issue was Timely Editorial To the editor: Your editorial on citizen participation was very timely. I sincerely hope it stimulated many other citizens to take a close look at the activities at the courthouse. One major problem lies with the subdivision ordinance—basically a well intended instrument but with many loopholes. A major defect lies in the delegation of power from the supervisors to the zoning administrator. The Board of Supervisors abrogate their responsibilities to the zoning administrator, who is a nonelected official. The only recourse the citizens have for his actions is the Circuit Court. This mustJbe changed very soon if the county wants to get the cutting up of land under control. Your comment in the editorial that since 25 acre lots subdivision were granted, how can the Mountain slopes subdivision be denied? There is a big difference in 5 acre lots and 25 acres. You can farm 25 acre fields but not 5 acre lawns. Furthermore the Goode subdivision has several lots that have a greater than 14 per cent slope, clearly in violation of the zoning ordinance. Just because mistakes were made in the past there is no reason to continue. Just because the land was not actively farmed for years, did not make it disappear. That is the beauty of open farmland, it is there when it is needed, and the time is soon coming. WERNER KREBSER, M.D. Huntly, Virginia quite interesting. . .pardon my train of thought here. . .the article treating the welfare programs was quite interesting. Two short paragraphs in particular caught my eye. “This is a false picture, she (Mrs. Buntin) maintained, citing important work, particularly in the fields of foster care add adoption. She acknowledged that the Welfare Department did spread itself too thin by trying do to too much.” “Welfare worker Becky Burke noted that the need for special services for the elderly existed before the nutrition program began and no private organization stepped in to fill the void.” How frustrating this situation must bel Here is a welfare department which is trying to do more than is possible for it to do with existing resources, and it faces opposition from citizens in usin| Outside funds to meet needs' which local efforts have failed to solve - or have failed to confront. TT t JVV 111 LV/ HOTV UW qualms about the funds which flow out of our pockets to the nation’s two largest private concerns (General Motors and Exxon) which are doubtless represented in Rappahannock County, and yet we become upset when a far smaller share of our income dissipation suddenly becomes visible - when it lands in the welfare department. The situation is hardly unique to your county - I have heard the cry of "socialism” in my own native Orange County of North Carolina when it first began its “meals for the elderly” program. The problem is a difficult one. As a relatively inexperienced bureaucrat myself, I can attest to the sometime idiocy of government. And yet, if you were to begin a drive tomorrow to obtain the necessary funds from local, private sources to accomplish the same purpose for which the federal and state funds are offered, I doubt seriously that you would get very far. The ideal solution, and that which the opposition would really prefer to see take place if they only realized it, would be a caseby-case situation in which each of the elderly in need of the meals would be “adopted” by a local citizen who took a personal interest in the. . .yes, welfare of the person, and dedicated whatever resources of time and money that were necessary to achieve the desired end. That is really the only solution to any kind ol “institutionalized caring.” In the absence of thai utopian dream, I suppos* that we will have to make d< with whatever caring we cai find. It does make it difficult, I suppose, for a person to have to be a “professional carer” (or is the term caseworker?). I have always thought that somehow the emotions would have to' be directly involved for this kind of care to be really successful, and yet what little acquaintance I have had with this type of role in society has always indicated that the efficient caseworker-nursepsychiatrist, etc., was the one who maintained a maximum of emotional detachment from the problems at hand. But isn’t that the reason the problem exists in the first place? Because those of us who should be caring for the needy have somehow achieved an emotional detachment from the problems, insulating ourselves even from noticing Subdivision Opposed ‘Dear Editor, * I’rh glad to read that you are for the; .preservatiqn of farm land in Rappahannock County, but I am not convinced that you really are. Your editorial reminds me of the fence straddling politician who says he is for a particular issue that he knows will win him popular approval, but, he always adds, not in this particular case. Just because there are subdivisions, 25 acre ones, yes, that are also taking land out of farming, just because there was apparently no public concern when approval of them was given, does it mean that there should be no public concern now? Just because the supervisors approved these subdivisions, approved their rezonings, should that set a precedent forever more? You also pass over pretty lightly the fact that 25 acre subdivisions require fewer services. This is certainly a very important difference. “ When more services are provided taxes go up, and when the farmer’s taxes go up, more fanners go out of farming. Your editorial also says that since Mr. Goode’s proposed subdivision lies near the village of Flint Hill it may not be the place to stop subdivision. On the contrary, it seems to me, it is the exact place to stop it. When you have five acre lots, you do not have a village, you have suburbia. People woultl still need cars to get to the village and Flint Hill could, as a result, become the same nightmare of traffic, asphalt, by-passes and by-passes of by-passes that has shot up in every community between here and D.C. If we really 1 want to encourage Flint Hill 1 as a village, a true village, 1 where people can walk to shops, school, work, then let them when confronted by the circumstance? I do detect from the manner in which the article referenced above was written that you and your co-workers have found the inner resources to care about others. Any welfare department which is trying to “do too much” must certainly attribute that record to the staff and not to the budget! Please acdept my admiration for the spirit in which your group seems to be approaching its task. I am sure that there are many people to whom you bring ane of life’s most valuable blessings - that of hope for :he future. Merely an interested (heaven forbid!) Outsider, Ken Latta us plan it that way and not > let the fa<ctvth»t sgnie .person happened to buy a farm that is no longer actively farmed, force us into something we don’t want. As for that farm being “marginal” farmland. There is hardly a farm in Rappahannock that couldn’t be called marginal farmland. But there has been a lot of good food for people on that farm in the past just as there has been on other farms in Rappahannock. The way things are going we’re going to need every bit of farmland, marginal or not, that we can save. As for the “shaky legal ground” that you seem to imply that our case, against the Goode subdivision rests on, our zoning and subdivision ordinances are not perfect by any means, but so far they have helped to keep Rappahannock an oasis of beauty and serenity while the surrounding counties of Warren, Culpeper, and Coverage Applauded To the editor: I have enjoyed very much reading the issuei of your newspaper which I purchased in Sperryville during recent hiking trips to nearby Old Rag mountain. Young coverage of the challenges presented by the need to both grow and improve the quality of life in your county while preserving all those good things which are so easily destroyed is a valuable service to your community. It is my hope, and surely that of countless other hikers who enjoy the scenic beauty of your area, that the citizens of Rappahannock County will find within themselves not only the wisdom and courage, but also the patience and love for each other to chart their path through conflicting interests in the months ahead. Please begin my subscription to your paper with the next issue; I shall be following your story of the events with great interest. Sincerely, Ken Latta A-1312 S. George Mason Dr. Arlington, Va. 22204 Complete Disaster To the publisher, The Rapp’k News to me is a complete disaster. It has no style, personality or charm as the previous one which was a joy to read, very interesting and just the right size. This one also lacks news. I see no excuse for it. Your paper lacks everything. Are you trying to imitate the Northern Virginia Daily? I do not subscribe. If I did, I would cancel. I will no longer buy it in the stores. It is a shocking disappointment. Mrs. Moffett A. Beale (born in Washington, Virginia) Front Royal Fauquier seem to be figh^ng a losing battle against those forces that are destroying the quality of life all over America. Let us not give up the battle before we even get started. We do have grounds, good legal grounds. Let us use them. So I ask you citizens of Rappahannock, look around'1' you. Think why you are here. If you were bom here, why did you stay? If you have more recently come here to live, why did you come? Surely it is because Rappahannock is still that special place, it is one of those places becoming more rare every day. A place where we still have the chance to build a community where people can live in harmony with each other and with the land that supports them. Sincerely, Miriam Harris Jordan River Farm Huntly, Virginia Develop Around Towns To the editor: Hurray for youl Your 6-277 editorial presents a refreshingly realistic view of the subdivision “crisis”. There has been much said lately about the loss of farmland to subdivision. It’s time people took a good look at Rappahannock land. I wonder how much of Rappahannock’s farmland is really “farmed”. I extend the definition of the term to mean any farm related income-producing activity. The current proposed subdivision at Flint Hill would not rob the county of farmed land. As residents of Rappahannock we enjoy some of the most scenic views to be found anywhere and the rural atmosphere makes for a very pleasant place to live (even if ..I1 there are few employment opportunities). I, too, selfishly wish to retain Rappahannock as it is, but changes are inevitable. Subdivisions are coming. If there is to be> development there is no better place than around existing towns. It does no good to prevent development to extend the village of Flint Hill while at the same time allowing mountain land to be chopped up into 25-acre “farmettes”. Let’s develop around the towns, have reasonable lot sizes that young people can afford to purchase and maintain. This will save the rural nature of Rappahannock and leave the real farm land to be farmed. R. BURKE

Sheriff’s Policies Again Questioned (Continued from Page 1) that’s so.” He questioned the factual basis for Davis’s remark. “I don’t think these statements should be thrown on*, without qualifications,” Buntin maintained. Luke suggested that the Board hold a special session to air out the charges raised by Davis once the Supervisors received copies of the investigation report. When asked to comment later, John Jones, Criminal Justice Planner for the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District Commission, said he considered policing of county businesses and residences to be a prime function of a rural sheriffs department. “To my knowledge, other sheriffs departments in the Planning District don’t require a request from a specific business” before routinely policing the location, said Jones. Prime Enforcement Agency “In rural areas, the sheriff s department is usually the prime law enforcement agency,” said Jones. “The Uniform Crime Report shows that the majority of part one offenses (including murder, robbery, rape, assault, larceny and motor vehicle theft) are reported to and investigated by sheriffs departments.” He concluded that this gave rural sheriffs departments responsibility for crime prevention. “It’s ridiculous to think that they souldn’t police,” Jones continued. He noted that the most logical way for deputies to get from point to point in the county was by motor vehicle and maintained that violation of law observed during travel time should be cited. “Emphasis is not placed on traffic control in any county that I’m aware of,” he said. Defined By Case Law Jones reported that he had spent several hours searching through the Virginia Code for a definition of sheriffs department duties—without success. In his opinion, such duties are established by case law through the courts. He added that he knew of no juri&ictions where law violations were thrown out by judges because citations were written by sheriffs deputies who were acting beyond their jurisdiction. According to Jones, the issues raised by George Davis on what is and isn’t sheriff department duty is not a common legal question. “To my knowledge, this is the first time it’s ever been brought up in the state.” Prior to the remarks made by the Commonwealth Attorney, Buntin renewed his request for a full-time secretary and additional deputy. At last month’s Board meeting, the Supervisors voted to recommend to the State Compensation Board that neitljer position be authorized. Buntiik noted that guideline/ of one deputy per 2,000 population established by the state allowed two and two-thirds deputies to Rappahannock. The county is currently served by only two full-time deputies. “I still feel it’s very essential to have another deputy,” said Buntin, basing his request on the increased work load of the sheriff’s department. For secretarial compensation, Buntin asked that the Board allow at least as 21 inert Quanta^ I SWAN'S IA. Swan, Jr. I Co* Inc. >1East St MMWI Ca**ar, | much in salary as what was authorized the previous year. The current appropriation calls for a cut of $632, said Buntin. “I certainly request the same as last year for parttime if a full time secretary is not allowed.” Same Tax Rate “We’ll stay within the same tax rate even if the Compensation Board gives the sheriff everything^ he’s asked for,” noted Luke. Rappahannock accountant Walter Cox agreed. Luke added that the advertised tax rate of $4 per 5100 of assessed value would hold if the ten per cent salary increase requested by all county constitutional officers was also granted by the Compensation Board. “I think the Sheriff needs another deputy but I’ll stand by a part-time secretary since that is what he had before,” said Luke. “What do you base your opinion on?” asked Supervisor Dick Latham, in reference to Luke’s support of the deputy request. “Crime increase,” an swered Luke. “How often do you have people in the lock-up?” Latham asked Sheriff Buntin. An average of 15 per month, Buntin responded, adding that most incarcerations occurred on the weekends. “What does your jailor do the rest of the week?” Latham inquired. The Sheriff explained that the rest of the jailor’s time was spent doing road work. “Then you actually have three deputies,” countered Supervisor H. B. Wood. “But he’s not supposed to be. He was hired as a correction’s officer,” Buntin responded. Following a unanimous vote by the supervisors to stand by their original position of approving only a part-time secretary and no additional deputy, Deputy Ronnie Hawkins asked the Board to reconsider their decision. Extra Work Load “We need an extra deputy because of the increased work load,’’ said Hawkins. He reported that the sheriffs department “road men” were currently working between ten and 18 hours per day. Hawkins added that he didn’t think Davis was correct in his assertion that 70" per cent of department time was spent patrolling highways. "As a neighbor of the jail, I think Deputy Hawkins’s statement about time is correct,” commented Jennings Hobson, in support of the Sheriffs request. Hobson was before the Board on fire and rescue squad business. “The Supervisors don’t support the fire departments to any great extent. We need all the help we can get,” he said. Since County funds are in short supply, Hobson asked that the Board transfer S100 from emergency supplies and equipment to fire and rescue. His request was unanimously approved. The Supervisors then approved the final budgets for the school system, Public Assistance Department, library and multi-purpose and general construction. Approval of the General Fund budget was postponed until the July meeting by which time Luke said he expected word from the Compensation Board on requests from Rappahannock County. The tax rate for fiscal year 1978 was unanimously approved at $4 per $100 of GI TEST Guest Speaker The Rev.

Fine Food Our Specialty 1525 Shenandoah Ave., Front Royal, Va. Sunday 7-11 Closed on Wednesdays LADY, A MINIATURE calf, owned by Mr. and Mrs. John Eubanks on Fodders tack Road, weighed only 20 pounds when it was born. Angus calves normally weigh between 70 and 80 pounds at birth. Big — But Little — Oddity +■ Francis Eubanks called the Rappahannock News Office recently with an item that she described as the “biggest oddity” ever pictured in the paper. The calf bom four weeks ago at the Eubanks’ farm on Fodderstack Road certainly qualifies as an oddity but big she isn’t! Mrs. Eubanks reported that the calf stood only 18 inches high at birth and weighed approximately 20 pounds. “I could pick it up and carry it so I don’t believe it weighed much more than that.” According to Mrs. Eubanks, she was the only one who immediately noticed the calfs size. Her husband, children and grandchildren were all around the Sunday the calf was bom but saw nothing unusual in the little animal until she pointed out how tiny it was. Mother cow and baby were first kept in a lot close to the house. Mrs. Eubanks is sure her husband moved the two into a far field with the rest of the herd because of jealousy. She said she spent a lot of time with the baby and her husband didn’t like the calfs growing affection for her. "He wanted it to like him best.” (John Eubanks corrected her at once. “You know it was because we didn’t have enough grass for them up here.”) Mrs. Eubanks didn’t think that the calf, christened Lady by her husband, was premature. “She had all her parts,” Mrs. Eubanks noted. At three weeks of age, the little animal appeared normal—a perfect miniature rather than a dwarf. According to County Extension agent Rap Owings, there used to be a lot of dwarfs born, particularly with Angus cattle. The recessive gene that causes dwarfism occurred with greater frequency when farmers bred for compact, short-legged cattle, said Owings. Dwarf cattle can usually be recognized by conformation, he noted, and have large, dished heads with bulging eyes. Definite proof can be obtained through a blood SPRING new car FEVER?
