Rappahannock News, July 20, 1978

—Rappahannock Newt Photo/John Toler TWO PERSONS including a Rappahannock County man were killed in a three-vehicle crash at the intersection of Rt. 17 and Rt. 28 near Bealeton in Fauquier County. Frank Lee Atkins, 84, of Sperryville and Mrs. Josie McRonel Henley, 66, of Virginia Beach were fatally injured. Hunter David Dodson, 83, of Woodville, a passenger in Atkins’ pickup truck was among six others injured in the accident. Atkins in Fatal Accident A Rappahannock native, Frank Lee Atkins of Sperryville, was one of two casualties resulting from a three-vehicle collision near Bealeton last Monday, July 17. 83-year-old Atkins, who fa failed to heed a stop sign at the intersection of Routes 28 & 17, collided, with a Buick sedan, striking it broadside as he entered the intersection in the north bound lane of Rt. 17. Josie M. Henley, a 66-yearold woman from Virginia Beach, who was a passenger in the Buick Sedan, received fatal injuries as a result of the accident. Both Henley and Atkins were declared dead on arrival at Fauquier Hospital. Others injured in the collision, were Valerie Walker, 27, of Fairfax, who is listed in good condition, Hunter D. Dodson, 83, of Woodville listed in guarded condition at Fauquier Hospital and Elmyra Hanson 67, and Edgar L. Henley also 67 of Virginia Beach, both considered in fair condition. Louis W. Hansen of Virginia Beach and Devin Anderson of Fairfax are in satisfactory conditon.

School Board Issues Planning Ultimatum By daphne McCullough Rappahannock New* Staff Writer At their July 11 meeting, the Rappahannock School Board members authorized submission of the 1978-1979 Title I project to the regional Title I office for funding approval. However, the move came only after the Board Chairman had stated objections over the lack of time in which to study the program. Superintendent wmiam Bloomer handed out copies of the several hundred page document while announcing that the deadline for submission was July 15—just four days away. He noted that former assistant superintendent Ray Hogan had returned for four days to complete the project in time for the Board’s approval at the July meeting. "Basically, it’s the same as what we had this year,” Bloomer said, adding that there had been minor changes dictated by federal guidelines and availability of funds. “I’ve made my feelings known on this type of presentation before,” responded School Board Chairman Beverly Massie. In the past, Mrs. Massie has been critical of the administration’s habit of coming up with plans and proposals for the School Board to read, study and adopt—all at the same Board meeting. Bloomer explained that he’d first been told that the deadline for submission of Title I projects was early August. Then, he said, the deadline was moved up to July IS. The switch was responsible for the rush, according to the Superintendent. “This is information that the Board is very interested in," Mrs. Massie countered, still critical of the limited time in which the Board was expected to study and approve the Title project in order to meet the July 15 deadline. (Included in Title I are the math and reading labs at the elementary school and the reading lab at the high school. In past years, special first, second and third grade classes have been part of the Ski Case Rescheduled The pre-trial conference on the case between the Rappahannock Board of Zoning Appeals, the Rappahannock Ski Corporation and the county Board of Supervisors, scheduled for Tuesday, July 18, has been continued until Monday, July 24, at 10 a.m. due to a death in the family of BZA attorney Robert Fitzgerald. The conference will be held in the Leesburg courthouse before Judge Carlton Penn. Title programs with both teacher and aide positions funded with federal dollars. Beginning this year, students in Title I primary programs will be mainstreamed into regular classes and will receive special instruction in “groupings” rather than selfcontained classrooms. The county will be responsible for funding the teaching positions while the six aides for Title classes at the elementary school will be paid for with federal money. In addition, the reading and math lab teaching positions will be federally funded. Title I instruction is concentrated in reading and math. Teaching materials can not be the same texts as used in regular classes in accordance with the requirement that federal funds may be used to supplement but not supplant normal instructional programs.) “Are you satisfied with the revisions on the Title I reading projects?” Mrs. Massie asked elementary principal Graham Spencer. “There are changes we talked about making but couldn’t due to guideline limitations,” he answered. "I hope so and I think so that this will help but I can’t say positively...It remains to be seen.” Bloomer added that he expected changes in the Title (Continued on Page 2) <Chure]f rganizib 1T7 8 A BICENTENNIAL HOMECOMING was held Sunday at the F.

Supervisors Balk At BZA Legal Bill By daphne McCullough Rappahannock New# Staff Writer It looks like the Board of Zoning Appeals will have to take Werner Krebser up on the offer he made four months ago and ask the doctor to spearhead a fund drive to raise money for the BZA’s legal fees. At Thursday's Board meeting, the Rappahannock Supervisors were presented a $4,339 tab for lawyer’s fees from the BZA. They balked at coughing up the money and agreed to pay only $1,800 towards the total. In addition, Commonwealth Attorney George Davis advised the Supervisors that they couldn’t legally pay the full amount. The issue arose at the finish of a typical summer Supervisors’ meeting that was short, quiet and routine. “Wait a minute,” interrupted Supervisor Chairman E. P. Luke as Gerk Diane Bruce, in her reading of the monthly accounts, reached the BZA’s bill of $4,339 for attorney’s fees in the DeMent and ski area cases. In the DeMent case, the BZA is being attacked for (1) issuing a special use permit to P. E. Steve DeMent for construction of a storage shed and (2) subsequently revoking the same permit when DeMent allegedly failed to comply with stipulated requirements. In the ski area suit, the Rappahannock Ski Corporation is challenging the BZA's denial of a special use permit for an Alpine slide, skiing and related recreational activities planned for a site in Harris Hollow. The Supervisors have been allowed by the court to intervene in both cases on the grounds that the BZA exceeded its authority in (1) granting and revoking the permit in the DeMent case and (2) hearing the application in the ski area case. Luke recalled that the Supervisors had agreed to pay all legal costs in the DeMent case but only $1,800—the amount in the BZA account at the time—for attorneys in the suit with the Rappahannock Ski Corporation. “To what extent are we obligated?” Luke asked, noting that the Supervisors had set up the machinery for the creation of the BZA and designated authority to that body in the Rappahannock Zoning Ordinance. BZA Issues Permits The Rappahannock Board of Zoning Appeals, with Jim Massie as acting chairman, zipped through a short agenda at Thursday's meeting and issued three special use permits in near record time. The Board approved an application from Mary Beth Martin to operate a Montessori school on Fodderstack road about midway between Washington and Flint Hill. Mrs. Martin’s special use permit limits class size to a maximum of 15. The school will serve children two and a half to five years of age in classes that will be held three days per week. The BZA granted a special use permit to Troy Collum Jr., to operate a craft shop on Route 626 between Hitt’s garage and Route 522. Sharon Collum assured the Board that the site, located approximately 1,000 feet off the road, provided adequate parking space. The Collum’s permit restricts sales to furniture built on site. The Board also issued a special use permit to Stephen J. Poliak for a trailer during construction of the Poliaks' home on Route 622 in Gid Brown Hollow with the stipulation that the trailer be removed by July 1, 1976. FT Church Holds Bicentennial Event The fried chicken competed with the pecan pies for first place at the Bicentennial Homecoming Celebration Sunday at the F. T. Valley Baptist Church where “dinner on the grounds” followed the morning service. Mrs. Lucia Kilby, chairperson of the homecoming committee, welcomed members and visitors and gave a report of the Bicentennial Committee. She introduced the Rev. A. Paul Thompson, a former pastor, who gave a history of the church he has been compiling and which he hopes will be completed by October. The guest speaker was Dr. James Massey of Richmond who is Director of Division Services, Church-Minister Relations, Virginia Baptist General Board. Copies of the church deed and early membership lists on display, in addition to minutes of the annual meetings of the Shiloh Baptist Association and photographs of important events created much interest and provided information. A new sign which had been erected at the church was made possible through the generous contribution of Dr. Walter B. Kilby. Appreciation was expressed for the gift. The Bicentennial Committee is composed of Mrs. Kilby, Chairperson; Lillian Yowell, Mary and Nelson Revercomb, Dennis and Nan Coppedge, Jane Kilby, Ouida Tanner and Cecil Coppedge. Bicentennial events included the spring service April 16 at which time an emphasis was placed on the worship and music of the early church, followed by Sunday's homecoming. The Bicentennial will be concluded third Sunday in October when the completed history of the church will be presented. . —"■ppiwipgt rmw% noto/3. Uum HOMECOMING MEANS FRIED CHICKEN and all of those other good things to eat which are apparently enjoyed by Tammy and Jeff Riddle, whose dad, Ron Riddle, provided special music at the morning service. Although he acknowledged that the BZA was a creation of the Board of Supervisors, Davis maintained that the Supervisors weren’t automatically responsible for the BZA’s debts. The BZA must have approval from the Board of Supervisors “prior to incurment of indebtedness,” he stated. If the Supervisors approve the indebtedness, he said, they're obligated to pay. If the Supervisors have not approved the indebtedness and made it a budget item, “then I don’t think you can pay for it legally,” Davis maintained, adding that the Supervisors were obligated to pay only SI,800 towards the BZA’s legal bill. Obligated For Total Coats? “Beyond that, we’re probably obligated,” Luke responded, repeating the assertion he made at the Supervisors’ April meeting. At that time, Luke insisted that the Board was responsible for the total legal costs incurred by the BZA and pushed for a commitment from the rest of the Supervisors for $3,000—the amount BZA Chairman Josef Gardiner requested for the ski area suit. However, the other Board members would only approve $1,800 while indicating that they might appropriate the balance after a meeting between Davis and the BZA attorney. On Thursday, Davis noted that law allows private contributions to defray the BZA’s expenses as long as the money goes through the Supervisors first. Records would have to be audited and money deposited in the (Continued on Page 3) Trustee Electoral Board Named Circuit Court Judge Rayner V. Snead announced the appointments to the Rappahannock School Trustee Electoral Board on Wednesday. C. E. “Ned” Johnson of Sperryville was reappointed for a four year term, while Mrs. Christine Johnston of Sperryville and Thomas Granville Eastham of Flint Hill were named to replace John S. Browning and George Muth. Snead reported that Browning had asked not to be reappointed. Muth was not reappointed because of his “many other civic duties and board memberships,” according to the Judge. “It was considered that he should be spared possible criticism because of any alleged conflict of interest,” Snead wrote in his announcement. Snead noted that he had received petitions advocating the candidacy of Aubrey North, Mrs. Ruby Cannon and Mrs. Christine Johnston. North declined to accept appointment and Mrs. Cannon had a potential conflict of interest because a member of the School Board belonged to the same real estate firm as her husband, according to Snead. “Although Mrs. Christine Johnston, a retired school teacher, now resides in Sperryville as does C. E. Johnson, a present member of the Board, she has lived in Washington for a number of years and has a broad knowledge of the county and its citizens because of her many years of service in the Rappahannock School system as a teacher,” said Snead. ‘‘This knowledge along with her interest in the county and schools makes her a well-qualified member of the Board.” According to Snead, Granville Eastham was a student of the Rappahannock County school system and a graduate of one of its high schools. “Several years ago, he returned to the county from Falls Church where he served as mayor and a member of the Town Council for a number of years,” the Judge noted. ‘‘He has demonstrated his interest in the the county and its young people by his leadership in providing a recreational area for the county and by his work on other county projects. Presently he has a son in the Rappahannock public school system. He is also well qualified for membership on the School Trustee Electoral Board," Snead stated. Snead acknowledged the dedicated and faithful services given by Muth. Browning and Johnson in the past years and expressed gratitude and appreciation of , their efforts on behalf of the ,, people of Rappahannock. He also noted his appreciation of the “interest, comments and expressions of the public concerning the appointments to the School Trustee Electoral Board.” "All of these expressions and recommendations have been considered and have been helpful in making the appointments," the Judge concluded.

(Continued from Page 1) I program this year would make the transfer from the Title text books to regular texts easier. Regulations governing Title programs require that teaching materials be different from those used in regular classroom instruction. There’s a battle going on now, Bloomer noted, over "how different do you have to be in order to receive HEW Title 1 funds.” Eventually, he said, the Rappahannock School Board may have to make a decision to go with regular teaching materials and not accept Title I funds if the transition problem between the two systems can't be resolved. Bloomer later noted that changes in federal guidelines to require that Title students be mainstreamed may also help improve transition problems. Bloomer said he’d first been told that Rappahannock would receive $108,000 for Title programs. The administration then submitted a tentative budget and was told that the county could get as much as $131,000. The program was finally based on the second figure and Bloomer indicated that he expected approval of the program as written from HEW. If it’s not approved as is, then the administration will be given additional time to modify the program, according to the Superintendent. "This is the last time that we will approve any plan if it's not submitted to the Board at least one month in advance,” warned Mrs. Massie. She added that proposals—whether for special education, vocational education, or Title I programs — should be completed in ample time for the Board to have an opportunity to read and evaluate. Parents in the audience criticized the lack of communication between the schools and parents on Title I programs. Dot Irvine said she knew of several parents who didn't understand that their children were in special Title programs instead of regular first grade. Although letters are sent home to parents announcing Title enrollment, Sharon Kilpatrick maintained that parents of children in Title 1 programs were in many cases, the ones least likely to understand a form letter.

School Board instead ot letters, she suggested that the school arrange conferences with the parents of all students who won’t be in regular first grade classrooms. Mrs. Massie thanked the parents for their comments and agreed on the need for better communication between the parents and schools in regard to Title I programs and enrollment. Summer Reading Program The School Board got some good news in a report from elementary assistant principal Cheryl Neel. According to Miss Neel, 92 per cent of the children enrolled in the reading program are ahead of the predicted rate of progress. On the basis of testing administered half way through the six weeks summer school, approximately 80 per cent of the students have achieved two-thirds of the total anticipated growth. Dr. Bloomer noted that only five per cent of the children in the reading program were not meeting or exceeding the expected rate of progress. In the on-going teacher handbook revisions, the School Board agreed to give written notice of contract renewal to teachers without tenure by April 15. Under the new policy, teachers without continuing contracts would then have to accept or reject a position in the Rappahannock schools within 15 days. If notice of contract rejection was not received from the teacher within that period, then the contract would be considered binding. If a teacher decided subsequently to leave, she or he would have to ask for a formal release. Education Association president Don Bomberger noted that it would be difficult for teachers to make a decision as to whether to stay in the Rappahannock system without knowing salary or class assignment. He suggested that the Schdol Board also try to have salary notices completed by the date contracts are due. The School Board approved the handbook section dealing with non-professional personnel and communityschool relations without making any significant changes in the policy already in force. Board member Paul Nichols said he would like to see a couple of hours set aside during teacher work days for appointments with parents, adding that this would be in addition to the two regularly scheduled conference days. Bloomer responded that conferences in the coming year would be set on a nonschool day between 2 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. to give more parents an opportunity to attend. seventh grade teacher Lynne Baines agreed with Nichols’s suggestion. “We have teachers who already do that plus teachers who see parents after school hours,” she noted. Board member Walter Masterson said he thought teachers should be given an opportunity during the day—instead of after-hours on their own time—to make home visits. Masterson proposed that this be done through scheduling tests so one teacher could watch two classes while the second teacher went out to homes. Bloomer agreed this was a possibility that the administration could consider. He noted that the coming school year included seven unassigned professional days and said a decision on how best to use these 42 hours would be made after consultation with the building principals. In other action, the School Board voted unanimously to: +have the same meeting date—second Tuesday of the month at 7:30 in the winter months and 8 p.m. under daylight savings time—for Board meetings. -(-elect the same officers—Beverly Massie as chairman and Paul Nichols as vice-chairman—for the coming year with Paul Nichols to continue as representative on the Educational Television Panel. -(-table a decision for six months on purchase of a van with detachable seats for transport of food commodities and small groups of students for extra-curricular activities. -(-continue contracting with Pilot Life for student SPECIAL Saturday evening & all-day Sunday July 22 & 23 FIRE BEEF Tender sliced beef dipped in a sauce containing a variety of herbs and seasonings cooked in our special fire stove Served with a trip to the salad bar, rice and vegetable.

Love Lives In The Jackson Home By DAPHNE McC'ULLOUGH Rappahannock Ntwa Staff Writer In a world full of takers, Charles and Roberta Jackson stand out. They are givers. They give love, that rarest of commodities, and with it, the chance for a good and decent life. The Jacksons are raising their second set of children. After bringing up three sons and a daughter, they found room in their home near Scrabble for foster children. More importantly, they found room in their hearts for the five girls who have become a part of their family. Foster homes are hard to locate, particularly for older children who may present discipline problems. Good foster homes are rarer still. It’s difficult for untrained volunteers—no matter how honorable their intentions—to deal with troubled youngsters whose problems have been caused by others. The Jacksons have the knack of reaching those kids and letting them know there’s still someone who cares. "Love and affection are the basic qualities needed for children who have been deserted,” said Mrs. Jackson. “The next things that go with love are kindness, gentleness and forgiveness.” Whatever the formula that Charles and Roberta Jackson use, it works. The Rappahannock Welfare Department considers the Jackson home to be one of the best foster care environments in the county. The four children who’ve been with the Jacksons the longest—three for ten years—are healthy, happy, well-adjusted girls. The oldest, who is seventeen and a junior at Rappahannock High, hopes to continue her education in nursing school after she graduates next year. The fifth and newest foster daughter has made great strides since she came to the Jacksons nine months ago. Although hostile at the outset after her escape from a destructive family setting, a brief stretch under in stitutionalized care and time in another foster home, she’s responded well to the mix of iove, discipline, responsibility and religion that makes up life at the Jackson’s. Charles and Roberta are not wealthy. Their home is comfortable but modest and everybody works. Charles is employed at the foundry in Culpeper but his job isn’t finished when he leaves the plant. Two weeks ago, he started his annual vacation. Instead of taking it easy, loafing around the house or along the river with a fishing pole in his hand, Charles had lined up extra jobs for every day of the week but Sunday. Roberta runs the home and the girls pitch in to help there and in the garden. “It’s learning to them. They need to know how to work when they go out on their own,” Mrs. Jackson said. Ifs the onliest way to train a child,” her husband agreed. “The Welfare lady, she told me when they came here to raise them as our own. That’s what we’ve done. Any other way would be a burden. And,” he added, “if they need correction, I give it.” But discipline is never unduly harsh nor is it required often. The love that the Jacksons lavish on their charges seems to be returned and the girls try to please their foster parents. Roberta and Charles have a talent for bringing out the best in any child. “When they go out, there’s lovin’ and kissin’—they make a whole lot of us,” said Mrs. Jackson. It’s a natural response as Roberta is the epitome of motherhood. When she talks, her voice comes out in a croon that makes conversation into a lullaby. Large and warm, she seems to enfold all she surveys into her ample arms. Charles Jackson, too, seems to be a gentle man—the kind who might take frustrations out on a stack of kindling wood or a garden plot but never on a child. ^al GEstate RCAITOR Which Closing Costs Deductible? Expenses connected with the sale of real estate over and above the selling price are known as closing costs. Some of these are deductible from your income tax - others are not. Property taxes are usually pro-rated so that both the buyer and seller each pay the taxes for the portion of the year that each owned the property. Each may deduct this amount - and only this amount - even though one or the other pays the entire amount. Another deductible item that appears in closing costs, is interest charged to you on the mortgage up to the date of closing. Also deductible as interest is the amount charged as pointsprovided they are charged as a premium for the loan of the money - not when charged for services. Non-deductible closing expenses are fire insurance, FHA mortgage insurance, and charges for rent for occupancy before closing. If there is anything we can do to help yon in the field of teal estate, please phone or drop in at EILEEN M. DAY. REALTOR. Middle Street, Washington. Phone: 67S-3400. We’te here to help. Religion plays a large part in the Jackson family’s life. Mother, father and girls belong to the Shiloh Baptist church in Woodville. “They go to church when they come here,” said Charles. “They don’t stay out. Every last one of our children has been a member of the church.” “They’ve been baptized,” Roberta continued. “Everyone of them sings in the choir. They love to go to church and they love to go to Sunday School.” Although the Jacksons attribute part of their success with young people to the beneficial influence of church and the Christian work ethic, they believevthat “love is the greatest basic that you can give to a foster child.” “Tender loving care,” said Roberta Jackson, is the most important quality that a foster home can have. Roberta and Charles don’t see their experiences with foster children as a one-way street with the children on the receiving end. They feel they’ve gained much in return for the love they’ve given. “The girls have made us very happy,” Roberta concluded. Rappahannock in the Limelight The Great Wall of China was erected thousands of years ago to protect an advanced civilization from barbarian invasion. But times have changed and the shoe’s now on the other foot. The county may soon have to build its own Great Wall of Rappahannock to protect “poor country folks” from the hordes of more “civilized” city slickers. With all the media coverage that Rappahannock’s received lately, the natives had better arm themselves to withstand the coming onslaught. The Washington Post is but the latest to jump on the bandwagon of life in the country. The county’s newest fan is Phyllis Richman, restaurant reviewer for the big city daily, whose enchantment extends beyond The Inn at Little Washington to include just about everything within a ten mile radius. She even sticks in a map that shows the route from D.C. to here for anyone interested. In a front page article in the Post’s July 14 Weekend supplement, Richman praises The Inn from appetizer to dessert. She describes the dinner entrees as “often exciting”, simple but with an “imaginative touch to each” ranging from “moist and sweet and buttery” trout amandine to "impeccable” softshell crabs. Apparently, her favorites were the desserts as she personally vouched for four of the five tarts on the menu plus three * frozen desserts. The Inn, according to Richman, has “the advantages of youth” in Chef Patrick O’Connell and maitre d’ hotel Reinhardt Lynch who have enough drive and energy to trek to D. C. for softshell crabs, turn out ten different desserts from scratch every evening, dip mint leaves in chocolate for a garnish and organize a list of 11 aperitif wines to compensate for lacking a liquor license. Richman describes the dining room decor as “part manse, part tearoom” balancing between the “sophistication of a sevenfoot gilded mirror with the ingenious touch of hanging lamps of baskets, the tall white candles on polished cherrywood tables with paper doily placemats.” The service, she says, is “well rehearsed, knowledgeable, smooth.” r ■ ■■ —--- — ^ A TTENTION: property owners CONCERNED ABOUT FIRE! r ‘ * '-'M Don’t be misled into thinking you’re secure from fire with just a smoke detector!

Texas £sfd 1945 ' V Although she notes a few very minor lapses, Richman concludes that “one is hard pressed to remember such flaws in a meal that wends its way from homemade breads with herbed butter through aspic-glazed mousse of duck liver to impeccable softshell crabs and pastries so stunning that you order them all.” The town of Washington comes in for its share of praise too. From the “deceptively charming” Lake Motel on its ^Jawn of weeping willows to the carved wooden sign that reads ‘‘Bank Customer Parking Only,” Richman doesn’t miss a thing. Washington, she says, is a town with ‘‘charm that survives a day of investigation....a town of white picket fences and plastic geraniums, antique shops and a recycling center.” Richman mentions furniture maker Peter Kramer, Nels Parson’s Christmas tree farm, and the Rush River Company where one can buy “ice cold cider, peanuts and pretzels among the split oak baskets, patchwork skirts and banners, pottery and ironwork and woodwork.” Richman encourages her readers to call Ruby Jenkins for a tour through her First Washington Museum or Flossie Williamson for an appointment to see her herb gardens in Woodville—and gives the telephone numbers of both ladies. ror a second meal in the county, Richman suggests the Teepee in Sperryville where Nestor Sampson prepares specials like Oriental fire beef or fried noodles and wontons with hollowed-out cucumbers stuffed with bamboo shoots and dried mushrooms. According to Richman, those in the know order his cold plate of homemade chicken salad, potato salad and cole slaw for lunch to "turn the knottypine highway luncheonette into an Eating Opportunity." ‘‘In general,” Richman concludes, ‘‘there’s not a whole lot going on” in Rappahannock. She reports that a couple of city kids schemed about where a skateboard park might fit. Not a chance. The biggest crowd between Amissville and Sperryville was a group of four gathered around a phone booth. ” ‘Little Washington’ will never be mistaken for Big Washington, even with a French restaurant.” But if Phyllis Richman and her compatriots in the media industry keep it up, who can tell? The opportunities for entertainment here may progress beyond that group of four at the phone booth yet, Ms. Richman! Bidding? Complete One-Step BULOWG SUPPLY Warranton Bukfing Malarial Co, Inc.

It Pays To Advertise In The Rappahannock News BZA (Continued from Page 1) general fund before transfer to the BZA account. Supervisor Clarence Baldwin interjected that the BZA could have used the SI,800 in its account to pay legal fees without any prior approval from the Supervisors. Without acknowledging whether Baldwin’s claim was correct, Davis countered that the Supervisors hadn’t allowed the BZA more than SI ,800. “This is just a small part of it,” he said in reference to the $4,339 legal fee. “I’ll tell you that. $4,000 may be the present bill but I doubt if it will cover half (of the final costs).” $3,000 Estimate Ms. Bruce reminded the Supervisors that Admiral Gardiner had quoted BZA attorney Robert Fitzgerald as saying he wouldn’t charge more than $3,000 in the ski area suit. She added that the BZA chairman’s statement was included in the minutes of the April Board meeting. Luke asked if it was the general consensus "to pay $1,800 on the bill and forget the rest of it’’ but his question met with no immediate response. Ms. Bruce also reported that the $1,800 left in the BZA account when the Supervisors approved its expenditure for legal fees in the ski area suit represented I the BZA’s whole budget—not just the amount alloted to pay counsel. “They had other outstanding bills for regular operating expenses,” she added. Davis repeated that the Supervisors hadn’t authorized legal fees for the BZA over SI,800. If the BZA members have incurred a debt beyond that amount, “then I don’t think you can legally pay it,” he warned the Board. On motion from Supervisor Butch Eastham, the Supervisors unanimously approved payment of SI,800 on the BZA's legal bill, stipulating that the first SI,602 be applied to fees in the DeMent case with the balance — S198—to go towards the $2,737 ski area suit costs.

False Economy For a governing body that takes pride in keeping costs down, the Rappahannock Supervisors sure have a strange way of operating. At Thursday's Board meeting, they reneged on their commitment to the Board of Zoning Appeals by refusing to disperse the $1,800 that had been previously allocated for payment of legal fees involved in the ski area suit. The Supervisors gave the BZA $1,800 all right but they stuck some strings on that require the first $1,602 to be applied towards attorney’s fees in the DeMent case. They did this after previously indicating that they would pay all legal fees involved in the second suit. We can only conclude that the Supervisors aren't paying their subordinate Board s legal bills because they want to save the tax payer’s dollars. Then how can they continue, month after month, to hand over thousands of dollars for trash pick-up off the ground without doing anything to clean up this waste of money? On Thursday, the Supervisors okayed payment of a bill to Community Trash for $1,080 for trash pick-up outside the dumpsters during June. They made the standard noises bemoaning the sloppy habits of county residents who prefer the ground to an empty dumpster for garbage disposal but aside from encouraging the Chairman to speed up contracting for signs with trash regulations, they did nothing positive to attack the problem. In the past, the Board members have talked about enacting a litter ordinance with stiffer, minimum fines for littering. But talk is as far as it’s gone. Why can’t they adopt regulations that would levy penalties of $50 or $100 for dumping trash on the ground at the dumpster sites? After denying the Sheriff an additional deputy for three years in a row, the Supervisors can’t very well ask him to .put a man on dumpster detail to enforce any new ordinance but they could hire someone part-time at minimum wage and deputize him (or her) to write litter tickets. It wouldn’t take long. After a few folks were slapped with significant fines plus facing the embarrassment of seeing their name and “crime” printed in the Rappahannock News with the rest of the court cases, there’d be less mess. And the Supervisors could use the money they saved from trash pick-up to honor their commitments to pay the Board of Zoning Appeals legal bills. Valley Music Festival The Shenandoah Valley Music Festival Week will begin on Saturday, July 22, at Orkney Springs. The Festival will start off with a Tchaikovsky Spectacular. By popular demand, the 1812 0\enure will again be performed with the Rice Battery of New Market and the Cutshaw Battery of Winchester providing the authentic cannonade.

The Little Fox Our Rappahannock Heritage i WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA —Rappahannock N«wi Fteto/Rod Coijta Maintenance Protects Planned At last Thursday's Board meeting, the Rappahannock Supervisors decided to take advantage of the Lantz crews on the job at the clerk's office construction site and asked the contractor for cost proposals on a series of projects in the court house complex. Architect Avery Faulkner, in a letter to Lantz, requested cost estimates for: +construction of a block and brick tool storage shed, approximately ISO square feet in size, between the new clerk’s office and the jail. +relocation of the jail security system annunciator panel. +removal of the existing electrical conduits on the south wall of the court house. +expansion of the court house parking lot from 10 to 20 spaces. -^removal of the incinerators and chicken shed. + removal of all gray repointing mortar from the south wall of the court house. freplacement of the court house gutters. County Engineer Fanning Baumgardner noted that plans for the parking lot expansion would not require the removal of any trees. “It would be a good deal for us to get some of this done while these guys are here,” remarked Supervisor Chairman E. P. Luke, describing Lantz’s crew as a “first rate outfit.” He emphasized that the Board was asking for a cost proposal only, “not anything else.” In addition to Faulkner's list, the Supervisors decided to also ask for cost projections on putting in a fire wall at the jail, repairing the fallen plaster in Commonwealth Attorney George Davis’s office and consolidating electrical service between the court house and the new clerk’s office. Dawson Subdivision No one showed up to speak at the public hearing on rezoning Jay Dawson's 480 acres near Huntly front? agriculture and conservation to residential subdivision. Dawson plans to divide the land into 16 lots ranging from 25 to 50 acres with two lots facing on Route 522, six facing on Route 662 and eight served by approximately 9,000 feet of gravel roadway. The proposal won unanimous approval from the Rappahannock Planning Commission after an advertised public hearing. Planning Commission Chairman Herbert Barksdale, who represents Dawson's district on the Planning Commission, told the Supervisors that he had heard “no complaints" on the subdivision proposal. “Butch, it’s out your way,” said Luke to Supervisor Edwin Eastham. “What do you hear?” “Nothing,” Eastham answered. The vote to approve the rezoning for development was unanimous. “1 don't like to see it happen but it’s all legal," commented Supervisor Dick Latham. Dead Issue Luke also told the Board that he's received two letters from Park Superintendent Robert Jacobsen regarding the proposed exchange of Park land in Rappahannock County for private property in Greene County. In the first, Jacobsen agreed to the Supervisors’ request for a public hearing on the swap but only after legal questions were resolved. In the second letter, Jacobsen announced that the proposal had been dropped. Luke said a public hearing would be scheduled for the Sperryville area if “this thing eve.- comes back up again.” He concluded that, as far as the Rappahannock Supervisors were concerned, the land swap was a “dead issue.” In other action, the Supervisors approved the county’s secondary road budget with little comment. Supervisor Butch Eastham repeated an earlier request for Resident Highway Engineer Don Askew to check the traffic line below the Huntly post office to see if it could be changed from a broken line allowing cars to pass to a solid, no-passing line. Eastham noted that accidents had come close to occurring there on several occasions. “Somebody might get killed,” he added. R. Fitzgerald, representing the Highway Department in Askew’s absence, agreed to have the site checked. He also announced that the Department would soon post a “willingness to hold public hearings” on improvements to the Chester Gap road but noted that hearings, if requested, would delay the beginning of construction on the project. In a final business item, Col. Luke reported that the State Compensation Board would reimburse the county for Sheriffs Department insurance at the same amount as last year despite an increase in rates. "They’re passing on the inflationary pressure to us,” he remarked. License Sales Up Lynn A. Greenwalt, Director of the Interior Department’s United States Fish and Wildlife Service, has announced that “people who hunted and fished last year spent a record threehundred twenty-nine million dollars on licenses, tags, permits and stamps during Fiscal Year 1977 (July 1, 1976 through June 30, 1977).” The total income from license sales of all kinds was up by $10 million over FY 1976. This includes $156 million from the sale of fishing licenses (up by $1.56 million over 1976) and $172.8 million from the sale of hunting licenses (up by $9.2 million over the previous year). Sales in Virginia totaled 725,725 for fishing licenses, tags, permits and stamps issued. Of this total, 70,309 were non-resident. This is in comparison to the state of Wisconsin, which recorded a total of 406,000 visitors who purchased licenses. California led the nation in the sale of fishing licenses with a whopping 5.3 million licenses, tags, permits and stamps sold. Hunting license sales (of all types) in the Commonwealth totaled 903,020 of which 68,041 were in the nonresident category. In comparison, Pennsylvania, which led the country in total sales, recorded 1.9 million licenses, tags, permits and stamps Thrift Shop Continues Managed by the Washington Ladies’ Auxiliary, the Thrift Shop next to the Rappahannock National Bank is open every Wednesday and Friday from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. The shop carries a complete line of clothing, shoes and household items at bargain prices, and will accept donations of useable clothing or household items at any time.

"The revenues derived from these license sales enable states to conduct their fish and wildlife conservation and management programs,” Greenwalt said. “Additional funds come from Federal Aid in Fish and Wildlife Restoration programs under which states are reimbursed up to 75 percent of the cost of approved projects.” For the current fiscal year, which ends September 30, 1978, S87,200,000 was apportioned in Federal aid funds for fish and wildlife conservation. 1969 Grads Plan Reunion Members of the 1969 graduating class of Rappahannock County High School are planning a 10th year reunion during 1979. Some classmates have not been contacted with information about the planning of the reunion due to a lack of their current addresses. It would be greatly appreciated if classmates themselves or their families or friends could send their present addresses to either Carter Moffett Welling, 57 Pheasant Run Drive, Gales Ferry, CT. 06335, or Janet Hackley Makela, 5501 Meer St., Virginia Beach. VA. 23451, so that every member of the class can be informed about reunion plans. Information Offered iu me eanor: In response to your editorial, Supply and Demand, dated July 13, 1978, the following information may answer some of your stated questions. “Why don’t the laws of supply and demand hold true for Rappahannock County?” They do, but we have teaching vacancies in disciplines with a limited supply and most of the applicants are in selected fields of education such as early childhood, social studies, or physical education. "If there are more teachers looking for jobs than there are positions available, why aren’t out-of-work teachers applying here?” A comparison of potential teachers to anticipated teaching vacancies would indicate an over-supply of candidates. However, many of the potential teachers select employment other than teaching and the number of available candidates becomes less than anticipated. Furthermore, due to family commitments and various other reasons, many candidates are limited to certain geographical areas. We believe, through a cooperative effort with colleges, placement centers and referral services, all vacancies will be filled before the opening of school. WILLIAM J.

H< noted that the majority of grant applicants t< the Farmers Homs Administration had corns from Virginia and Florida Rappahannock’s was turned down, he said, because ths county asked for funds tc draw up a general comprehensive plan instead oi identifying “immediate priority problems.” Luke suggested that th< county reapply for a rural planning grant and alsc submit an application foi planning money under ths HUD 701 planning grant program.

Four ; grants were awarded to PD9 jurisdictions this fiscal year, he added. Capelle said that the towns of The Plains, Warrenton, Remington, Culpeper and Gordonsville as well as Fauquier, Culpeper, Madison and Orange Counties had all won grant approval. In a telephone interview on Monday, Capelle described Rappahannock’s chances of getting 701 funds as “very good” although he noted that the county’s refusal of money under this program a few years back may have a bearing on any new application. “Work could begin now,” he said, on the comprehensive plan mandated by the state for adoption by 1980. Rappahannock could start using local money for background studies and maps while waiting to apply for 701 funds that would be dispersed in the next fiscal year or, said Capeile, the county could instruct the Planning District Com* mission to begin preliminary efforts.

Hundley, social security manager in Culpeper. Of the 9,600 social security beneficiaries living in the area, 8,500 are receiving retirement and survivors benefits. The other 1,100 are receiving benefits as disabled workers or their dependents. Today, social security is the nation’s basic method of Si providing a continuing income when family earnings are reduced or stopped because of retirement, disability, or death. Nine out of 10 workers in the United States are earning protection under social security. Nearly one out of every seven persons in this country receives monthly social security checks. About 22 million people 65 and over, nearly all of the nation's aged population, have health insurance under Medicare. Another 2.1 million disabled people under 65 also have Medicare. Nearly every family, then, has a stake in social security. If you would like more information about social security monthly benefits or Medicare, contact the Culpeper social security office at 522 Culpeper Shopping Center.
