Attorney Douglas Baumgardner; representing the landowners at last Wednesday's Commission meeting, told the Planners that proposals called for the land on Route 211 across from the High School to be divided into three lots—one 35-acre, one 15-acre and one 87.5 acres. He explained that the rezoning is required because the owners have already cut off five other lots from the tract. (According to Rappahannock ordinances, a property owner may make up to five land divisions from a parcel with approval from the Zoning Administrator. Over five divisions requires rezoning to residential subdivision.) Planner Newbill Miller asked if Robert A. Bridges, the contract owner of a 50acre lot behind the parcels under consideration for rezoning, had intentions of using a right-of-way from Route 211 across the three lots. “None from Route 211, replied Baumgardner. “That’s his present intent.” Miller inquired whether the Prydes were aware that the 87.5-acre lot could not be resubdivided under the county’s current ordinances once it was rezoned to residential subdivision. “Mr. Pryde knows,” Baumgardner answered, adding that he was sure any prospective purchaser "will want to talk to Mr. Pryde about that.” Benefit Polo Bill Fannon has scheduled a polo match at Fannon Field in Castleton for Sunday, August 13, at 4 p.m. to benefit the Rappahannock Historical Society. Admission will be SI. Rappahannock, represented by Bill Fannon, Roger Rhinehart. Robbie Rhinehart and Roger Steele will compete against another team to be announced later.

In 1974, Home Demonstration Agent Llewellyn Allison worked with Family and Child Services Coordinator Ellen Mustoe to organize a week of outdoor fun at Roundabout Farm near Spenyville for children who didn’t have the opportunity to go to overnight camp. The program has grown by leaps and bounds since then. This year, 85 kids swarmed onto the Methodist Church grounds at Hazel River for five days of summertime activity that ranged from canoeing and archery to drawing still lifes with charcoal. Extension Agent Nancy Secrist who organized and directed this year’s camp, made sure there was something for everyone and proved that a day camp could satisfy all of the people all of the time—at least for a week! The list of classes offered outshone agendas at many expensive overnight camps. Marie Davis and Martha Kidwell taught crafts. Woodworking was led by Bob Haase, Susie Coffey and Carolyn Leake. Din Bomberger taught drawing, Rap ’ Owings taught archery and Judy Baumgardner taught games. Stu Eiland and Kay DeLuise were instructors for canoeing. Howard Handorf and Bill Adams gave fishing lessons. Lyt Wood, Tippy Jenkins, Jim Bankston and Irv Kenyon joined together to teach nature classes. Carolyn Manwaring and Ruth Williams taught camping skills while Vinnie DeLuise. Lynne Baines and Elsie Gheen were swimming instructors. In addition to the volunteer instructors, many other people in the community joined together to make the camp a success. For the first time, transportation was provided for the youngsters whose parents were unable to make the drive to Boston twice a day. William Lynn from Wakefield School donated a bus and driver that made rounds from Huntly to Woodville. Barbara Gentry, Jessie-Miller Turner and Frances Lyne from the Retired Teachers Association, Robert Ingle, Ellen Mustoe and Daphne McCullough helped with a car pool to bring youngsters in the summer reading program to afternoon camp activities. Ruby Jenkins from the Extension Office and the personnel in the Welfate, Department also helped organize and plan the camping activities. Junior leaders Paul Keithley, Judith Bloomer, Terry Williams and Bobby Baines assisted the instructors. Rena Mae Jenkins, Bonnie Roberts and Diane Watson helped in the lunch room and Dick and Cliff Latham bought the canoes to camp. On Friday, the 4-H day camp ended with a special parents day. Proud moms and dads watched in sweltering 100 degree plus heat while kids competed in 4-H fun Olympics and craft contests. B' te ribbon winners in crafts will be entered in the Culpeper-MadisonRappahannock Farm Show where they will be judged on Friday at 1 p.m. Olympic winners were: Archery: (1st) Joe McCullough, (2nd) Gary Jenkins, (3rd) Chris Williams. The award for most impro\ed went to Cathy Aylor. Fishing: Biggest fish—Gregory Hunter, most fish—Seth Roberts, most fish caught on one worm—David Coffey.

With the thermometer climbing up into the high 90s, the class’s favorite lesson was how to capaize and then turn the canoe back over. PD9 To Help With Comprehensive Plan By d aphne McCullough Rappahannock News Staff Writer At last Wednesday’s Commission meeting, the Rappahannock Planners agreed to go ahead with work on the county's comprehensive plan, depending on assistance from the Planning District Commission and local talent instead of grant money—at least in the initial stages. The Planners also decided to consult planning engineer Robert Plavnick who was recommended by Fauquier Planning Director Richard McNear as an expert who can be “innovative in rural areas.” Planning Commission member Walter Masterson reported that he’d been most impressed with Plavnick after investigating a list of 25 planning engineers. Masterson added that Plavnick was in partnership with two attorneys—both experts on land use and water issues—whose services came in a package deal with the engineer. Plavnick’s firm worked on comprehensive plans for Loudoun, Orange, Fauquier and Clarke Counties, according to Planner Newbill Miller. He agreed to check with Planning Commission members in Clarke and Orange on the working relationship they maintained with Plavnick. The Commission set Friday, July 28, at 7:30 in the Courthouse as a tentative date to meet with Plavnick. Recently, the Rappahannock Supervisors authorized application to the Farmers Home Administration for a comprehensive planning grant under a new rural planning program. At the July Board meeting, Supervisor Chairman E. P. Luke an nounced that the grant had been denied. Acknowledging the denial and noting that resubmission may take from six months to a year, Dr. Werner Krebser suggested that the Planners ask the Supervisors for additional local money above the $4,080 allocated in this year’s budget so work can begin on the comprehensive plan mandated by 1980. Krebser also proposed that the county apply for 701 planning funds from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). “Aren't there state funds (Continued on Page 4) Attack On Ordinance Allowed In Ski Area Suit By CINDY CUMINS Rappahannock New* Staff Writer As a result of a ruling from Judge Carlton Penn on Monday, the Rappahannock Board of Zoning Appeals is faced with defending the county's zoning ordinance in legal proceedings between the BZA, the Board of Supervisors and the Rappahannock Ski Corporation. At a pretrial conference in the Leesburg court house on Monday, Judge Penn allowed that the Ski Corporation coultf challenge the validity of the Rappahannock zoning ordinance in writ of certiorari proceedings currently before the court. In the certiorari proceedings, the Ski Corporation has asked the court to review the BZA’s denial of the Ski Corporation's special use permit application for a snowless Alpine Slide, skiing and other support facilities. In addition, Ski Corporation attorney Doug Baumgardner has argued that the ordinance’s standards for issuing a special use permit are arbitrary and capricious and amount to unlawful confiscation of property. Robert Fitzgerald, lawyer for the BZA, has insisted that the Judge cannot rule on Baumgardner’s charge. He has contended that the court may ‘‘reverse or affirm, wholly or partly, or may modify the decision brought up for review” in an appeal of BZA action. The law, he has maintained, doesn’t allow for review of the ordinance on which the decision was based as part of a writ of certiorari petition. According ,o Fitzgerald, there are other legal avenues open for a test of an ordinance's constitutionality. The Judge disagreed. He gave both sides additional time to file briefs citing previous authorities on howvague the standards under which the BZA considers permit applications may be. Penn gave Fitzgerald until Monday, August 14, to file and Baumgardner until Thursday, August*-24. His ruling will allow Baumgardner to argue that the standards set forth for the BZA to consider in issuing a special use permit are too general and vague for a non-legislative body. The Ski Corporation’s attorney will also be able to present evidence supporting his charge that the ordinance's commercial zone is invalid as applied to the ski area. Further, he can now attempt to prove that the zoning ordinance is confiscatory in that it doesn’t allow the Ski Corporation the right to use its property for any use to which it can be feasibly put without first obtaining a special use permit. BZA Has Jurisdiction In a second poiru, Judge Penn ruled that the BZA did have jurisdiction to issue or deny the Ski Corporation s application for a special use permit. This apparently punctures the argument made by Rappahannock (Continued on Page 4) You Can’t Keep A Good Thing Quiet Try as one may, it's difficult to keep a good thing quiet, as many natives have discovered as they watch the continuing caravan of tourists who wind into Rappahannock each weekend. Seeking the county’s most available commodities, natural beauty and relaxing atmosphere, they come looking for a temporary niche of their own. For some, that place is Piney River Campground, located a mile east of Sperryville on Route 612, better known as Old Hollow. Managed by Cindy and Eddie Wayland, the 70 acre camping area is a virtual melting pot for tourists. Though visited most frequently by residents of the Washington D.C. area, Dutch, German and French campers are not unusual, according to Cindy. Organized about 10 years ago by Med reck Bell, the camp consists of 55 sites most of which are located in an apple orchard forming part of the grounds. Aside from bath house facilities, the only other structures there are a shelter for ping pong, horseshoe pitching equipment and a small store which adjoins the house where the Waylands and their eight month old daughter, Sarah, live. “Piney River is not a recreational campground where people come to be 4-H Home Ec Club Planned A Home Economics Gub for Rappahannock 4-H'ers is being organized for members between the ages of 12 and 19.

Nature seems to provide the necessary diversions that keep campers happy. For Cindy, a Rappahannock High School French and English teacher, and Eddie an employee with the postal service, management and maintenance of the campground is an almost never ending job. “We love living here—but it can be confining,” say the young couple who must be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, from May until October. Problems,,with campers are relatively few and “there's very little in the way of vandalism” according to the Waylands, who add that “most people are extremelv friendly." But managing a campground can provide tense moments, as well, they sav. recalling the day a motor(Continued on Page 11) MB m «%.*I —Rappahannock New* Photo/S.

WHAT BETTER WAY TO STUDY NATURE (or anything, for that matter) than under a shade tree in the woods? Youngsters listened intently while Irving Kenyon explained pollution during the last day of 4-H camp on Friday. Livestock, Craft Fair Aug. 10-12 More than 200 area 4-H members are expected to participate in the annual craft fair and livestock exhibit scheduled for Aug. 10-12 at the 4-H fairgrounds adjacent to the Fauquier Livestock Exchange on Rt. 55 and Rt. 709 east of Marshall. The 4-Hers will exhibit their own food, clothing, crafts, photography and other ‘projects, including livestock. A country music show featuring The Country Follies is planned for Aug. 10 to launch the fair with a festive mood. A chicken barbecue is planned for Friday night, Aug. 11, to help raise money for several 4-H projects. Admission to the fair is free and refreshments will be available. —Rappahannock Nm Photo /D.

Madison Portrayed On TV A unique film—Dolley And The ‘Great Little Madison’—will be shown on public TV station WNVTTV, Channel 53 at 9 p.m. on Aug. 1. The film was made in connection with the exhibition of the same name now on display at the Virginia Museum in Richmond through August 20. The feature was filmed on location at the Octagon House in Washington, D. C., where Dolley and James Madison made their home after the British burned the White House in 1814. Dolley Madison is portrayed by Emmy-Awardwinnlng actress Lois Nettleton. Through Dolley Madison's dialogue, authentic settings and costumes, the film explores 40 years of her life with James Madison. The film was commissioned by Philip Morris Incorporated. Copies of the film are available for loan to Virginia Museum Service member organizations.

Speeding Leads Convictions More than 35 percent of all traffic convictions in Virginia during 1977 were for speeding 10-19 mph above the limit, according to Vem L. Hill, commissioner of the Division of Motor Vehicles. There were 201,838 convictions for the 10-19 speeding offense compared to 45,613 convictions for operating an uninspected vehicle, the second-ranked offense. The top 10 traffic convictions for 1977, showing number of convictions and demerit points assessed for the violation, were: speeding 10-19 mph above the limit, 201,838 (four points); operating an uninspected vehicle, 45,613 (no points assessed); failure to obey a highway sign, 24,971 (thrqe points); reckless driving, 24,415 (six points); speeding 1-9 mph above the limit, 21,110 (three points). Also, failure to obey a traffic signal, 20,897 (four points); operating or permitting operation of an unlicensed vehicle, 20,693 (no points); speeding 20 mph or more above the limit, 20,445 (six points); no county or city tag, 15,150 (no points); and improper driving, 14,722 (three points). Driving while intoxicated (DW1) ranked 14th with 8,379 convictions or 1.48 percent of total convictions. Since suspension is mandatory for a DWI conviction, it is not included in the Driver Improvement point system. Non-moving violations do not carry point assessments, either. Although total convictions, at 564,867, were down from the 1976 figure of 630,907, the difference primarily reflects a change in defining “total Virginia convictions.” r Figures after January 1977 do not include convictions in Virginia courts on nonVirginians. During 1977, approximately 660,000 total Virginia convictions included out-of-state drivers.

Modern, traditional or contemporary can be enhanced by the use of colors that range from the dramatic deeps to the fresh and light brights. The first step is to choose a basic color that’s neutral not basic blah, but rich camel, dark gray, soft shades of white, warm brown or cinnamon. The choice is yours, but keep most of the room in the same tone. Once that’s done, it’s time for your accent colors.

The sale will be held Oct. 7 at the Foxfield race course on Garth Rd. at Charlottesville. VTA director Michael Hughes expects the new area to attract many new buyers and sellers. The new location has ample stabling with plenty of room to show the horses, and a convenient walking ring near the sales ring. Plenty of parking and easy access should help make the sale a success, Hughes added. Entry blanks for the sale are available by calling the VTA office at 347-4313. procedure established by the SCC, shows the increase is inadequate for current periods according to the utility company. Data submitted with the request demonstrates that even if the recent rate increase had been in effect during the entire calendar year of 1977, Potomac Edison revenues would have been $2.1 million short of producing the rate of return authorized by the SCC. Projections for 1978 show an even bigger deficiency. Potomac Edison is currently spending at the rate of about $1.75 million a week to build new generation, transmission and other facilities to serve its 235,000 customers in Virginia, West Virginia and Maryland. “More than half the money we need for construction now underway and that planned to meet future demand must come to us voluntarily from the savings of people who are not necessarily our customers,” general manager J. M. McCardell pointed out. "Only with adequate rates from all our customers can we continue to attract those savings, finance our construction program and continue to meet electrical demand.” McCardell said the demand for electricity in the PE service area in Virginia has increased at a greater rate than the system demand over the last 10 years. “Currently." he continued, “we expect the peak demand on the Potomac Edison system to increase at the rate of about 6.8 percent during the next decade.” The interim request would increase the monthly electric bill for a residential customer without water heating using 450 kilowatthours $1.33. The monthly bill for an allelectric customer using 1600 kwh would increase $3.35. ROYAL DAIRY Bar & Restaurant 6 a.m. • 10 p.m. 7 days a wk. Full Meals Ice Cream Bar 241 Chester St. Front Royal, Va.

FIRST-HOME MYTHS A national study done by the Chicago-based Family Housing Bureau dispells a lot of myths about the buying of first homes. Here's a few. MYTH: First-time home buyers have been driven out of the market by escalating costs. FACT: The survey showed that 44 per cent of today’s home buyers are first-time buyers. MYTH: Young people cannot afford homes anymore. FACT: Eighty seven percent of first-time buyers are younger than 35 with the average age being 28. MYTH: Costs for single-family homes have risen so sharply that most home buyers are turning to multi-family solutions. FACT: Ninety percent of first-time home buyers choose single family homes, 7 per cent condos and only 3 per cent choose multi-family homes. MYTH: Most home buyers now spend more on mortgage payments than the recommended '/« of total income. FACT: One quarter of the current crop of first time buyers fall into the '/« rule of thumb category. Another 53 pier cent are even more conservative spending 20 pier cent or less of total income for shelter payment.

The Bottom And The Top in the last two weeks, four teachers at the elementary school returned their contracts for the coming year—unsigned. The administration can now add vacancies in physical education, special education, sixth grade and kindergarten to the list of empty slots. With the start of classes a little over a month away, Rappahannock’s school system has currently 10 openings for teachers. If the Superintendent and School Board Chairman are right, three of the new vacancies at the elementary school won’t be hard to fill. Dr. Bloomer and Mrs. Massie have maintained that the county’s problem in filling empty positions is primarily due to the fields in \yhich those empty positions occur. According to Dr. Bloomer, many of the vacancies are in disciplines with a limited supply, such as learning disabilities, child development specialist and other areas of special education while most applications for employment come from teachers with certification in standard fields of physical education, social studies and early childhood. But this doesn’t explain why positions in reading, science and math at the high school have proved difficult to fill. Nor does it answer the primary question of why so many of the county’s experienced teachers are leaving in the first place. At this point, criticizing the School Board and administration for not taking steps to keep good, experienced teachers is almost like beating a dead horse. But we hope that the continuing recruitment problems the system is experiencing this year will be kept in mind during budget time next year. Of course Rappahannock can t compete with the salaries and benefits offered by Fairfax, Arlington, Henrico and other urban communities. But the county should be in a position to vie with Madison, Greene, Orange and the rest of our neighboring counties in attracting top flight teachers who want to work in rural areas. What orchardist would watch his entire fruit crop destroyed by blight just because he didn’t want to spend the extra money to spray? He’d find the dollars necessary to protect his investment, as would any good business man. It’s the same with the school business. Rappahannock has spent the biggest percentage of its school budget for teacher salaries. Men and women, interested in educating youngsters, have been trained here, have gained experience and have learned to fit into the county’s program. They’ve become valuable employees and if it takes spending a little more money to keep our current crop of teachers happy, then if it’s possible, we should do so. The alternative is to watch Rappahannock’s experienced teachers move on to jobs elsewhere while the school system struggles to replace them. No one wants to see county landowners taxed off their property. But of the five counties in Planning District Nine, Rappahannock has by far the lowest real property tax. Everyone could afford to pay a few dollars more. Then maybe the county won’t rank at the bottom in the District in per capita expenditures for education and at the top in teacher turn-over rate. No Proposition 13 Needed Here Taxpayers in Rappahannock County, like taxpayers throughout the nation, make a lot of noise about spiraling property levies but county residents have little to scream about, according to data released by the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District Commission. The Commission analyzed the real property tax rates of the counties within Planning District 9 and compared the figures to tax rates in California, the acknowledged leader in the taxpayers' rebellion. The results show PD9 as an area with relatively low property taxes. California jumped into the vanguard of the revolt with the passage recently of Proposition 13. Proposition 13 limits property tax levies to one per cent of full cash value of property, based on 1975 assessments. The property tax as a per cent of total market value gives California's tax levy as 2.5 per cent of total market value compared with 0.9 per cent in Virginia, according to PD9 Executive Director John Capelle. Therefore, he concluded, a property tax limitation of one per cent is far more dramatic in terms of the reduction to the taxpayer and the loss of revenue to the local governments in California. None of the five counties in PD9 comes close to the situation in California. In all cases, real property taxes would have to be INCREASED in order to achieve a one per cent assessment of full market value, with Rappahannock having the furthest to go. The real property tax as a percentage of market value for each county in 1976 was: Percentage of Market Value Rapp. County .26 Madison County .40 Fauquier County .42 Orange County .49 Culpeper County .57 The major impact of a Proposition 13 proposal in Virginia would be in the Northern Virginia and Tidewater areas, according to Capelle. For 1976, the most recent year with available data, 22 localities, predominantly the Commonwealth’s cities and urban counties, would have a revenue loss of $128.4 million if a one per cent tax ratelimitation was placed on Virginia localities. Ordinance Attack (Continued from Page I) Commonwealth attorney George Davis—on behalf of the Supervisors—that the Ski Corporation had the right to do everything listed in its application WITHOUT a special use permit. However, Penn did agree that the Supervisors were properly granted status to intervene in the suit. Before deciding on whether the BZA acted beyond its jurisdiction in considering the permit application, Penn asked each attorney if the use to which the Ski Corporation had put its property had been discontinued for a year. He received affirmative answers. (The Ski area, in existence before adoption of the zoning ordinance, was considered a non-conforming use and as such, required no special permits. However, the ordinance stipulates in section 14-1-3 that any nonconforming use discontinued for one year shall be deemed abandoned and any subsequent use shall conform to the requirements of the ordinance. The ordinance lists skiing, recreational resorts and commercial amusements as allowed with a special permit in a commercial zone.) After giving his ruling, Penn asked for a copy of the county’s zoning map, apparently to study what Davis has contended are overlapping zoning districts that would allow a Ski Corporation the authority to do by right all that it requested in the special use permit application. Partnership Split on Some Points Although the Ski Corporation and the Board of Supervisors are aligned together in the suit against the BZA, the partnership broke down on several points. Ski Corporation attorney Baumgardner consistently refused to take any position as to whether the BZA acted beyond its jurisdiction in considering the permit application while Davis maintained that the Ski Corporation showed “bad faith’’ in applying to the wrong body in the first place. According to the Commonwealth’s Attorney, the Ski Corporation should properly have asked the Zoning Administrator for a building permit instead of requesting a special use permit from the BZA. Davis also denied Baumgardner’s contention that the zoning ordinance is invalid because the criteria for issuing a special use permit are arbitrary, capricious and confiscatory. When asked if the Ski Corporation planned to pursue charges that the BZA acted in "bad faith", Baumgardner replied that his client certainly wanted to do so in regard to the memorandum from the BZA to the Supervisors. In the memorandum, the BZA stated, among other things, that the entire ski area property was inadvertently zoned commercial when the zoning ordinance and maps were adopted in 1973. Judge Penn acknowledged that the memorandum—which he described as “gratuitous”—was the only possible evidence of bad faith that he had found in his review of the case. Baumgardner added that he was also in the process of developing other new evidence that may prove pertinent to the “bad faith” question. In answer to a question from Penn, all three attorneys—Fitzgerald, Davis and Baumgardner— indicated that they wanted to submit additional evidence to be considered in the certiorari proceeding. —fUppdtmnock NEwt H—/Pi|*«i THE POOL WAS EVERYONE’S FAVORITE place to be during the 100 degree plus weather at the 4-H day camp Olympics. Parents watched the competition from a shaded hillside while the kids pressed their noses up against die chain link fence, waiting their turn to jump into the pool. PD9 To Help With Comprehensive Plan (Continued from Page 1) awarded for comprehensive planning?” Masterson asked Planning District Executive Director John Capelle. “None,” he replied, shaking his head. However, he noted, planning services are available from PD9 at no cost to the locality. These include research, data collection, base mapping, citizen participation and final plan reproduction. The PD9 staff, consisting of the executive director, regional planner, local planner and draftsman, is capable of undertaking any phase of comprehensive planning in a professional manner, according to Capelle. In reference to HUD 701 grants, Capelle told the Planners that April of next fear is the earliest they could ipply since HUD’s fiscal year uns from July 1 to June 30. \s for resubmission of a grant application to the Farmers Home Adminisration, Capelle didn't tnow the earliest date hat could be done. “It’s hard to tell how fast hey gear up for the next go -ound,” he said, adding that :he fiscal year for Farmers Home Administration goes From October to September. “At one time, there was HUD money reserved for Rappahannock County," Capelle continued. “It was urned down by the Board of Supervisors. They refused the mittiev. Time To Begin “With the help we can get from you, I think we can go ahead and get started (on a comprehensive plan),” H. S. Barksdale told Capelle. Miller interjected that he still wanted the Planners to talk with Plavnick to see what kind of “innovative ideas” the planning engineer had on rural planning. “Rappahannock brains worked up two right good ordinances here,” responded Barksdale in reference to the county zoning and subdivision ordinances. By utilizing the Planning District services and consulting with Plavnick, Barksdale said that he thought the Commission could begin on a comprehensive plan. “I don’t think we have to ask the Supervisors for more money,” he said. Miller remarked that he'd read two or three comprehensive plans and felt they weren’t worth the paper they were printed on. "If Rap pahannock’s going to do one of those, we can just pile up a bunch of papers and staple them together,” he said. Miller continued that he still didn't understand the use of a comprehensive plan. “I don’t see the legal teeth in .it,” he said. 1 Capelle responded that the comprehensive plan has legal standing only in so far as it relates to and is implemented bv zoning and subdivision ordinances. ‘‘So it all falls back on zoning and subdivision ordinances,” Miller remarked as Capelle nodded his head in agreement. The Planning District Director explained that a comprehensive plan is a general document addressing how citizens want their county to look in the future. "The specific stuff,” the controls to achieve that future ideal, are included in local ordinances, he added. Capelle told the Rappahannock Planners that the PD9 staff, in work on Warrenton's comprehensive plan, had taken whole sections of the zoning ordinance and stuck them into the plan as “development standards.” This intermeshed and strengthened both documents, according to Capelle. Growth Limits Nels Parson asked if limits on growth rates, like those set in Petaluma, California, and upheld in a test before the U.S. Supreme Court, should be properly included in a zoning ordinance or in a comprehensive plan. Capelle answered that growth limitations belong in a comprehensive plan. Then, he said, boundaries in the zoning ordinance can be drawn to accommodate only the growth rate decided upon, thus linking the ordinance with the plan. Miller interjected that Virginia doesn’t have the enabling legislation to allow a locality to put a limit on growth rate. “So we’re talking about something that doesn’t apply to us,” he added. "Except as a result of a court case that might be settled on the basis of the Petaluma precedent,” Phil Irwin remarked. Agreeing with Capelle, Irwin described a comprehensive plan as a “visualization of what you want to happen to the county in the future.” Zoning and subdivision ordinances, he continued, implement that goal. "Rappahannock has been operating with its head in the sand for years,” Irwin stated, He maintained that courts struck down ordinances that weren't based on comprehensive plans while ordinances backed by plans stood a much better chance of withstanding legal tests. "Phil, I wish that what you’re saying was true. I'd jump right on your bandwagon,” Miller responded. Irwin claimed that the county was attacking its growth problems backwards by developing a comprehensive plan after the adoption of zoning and subdivision ordinances, instead of basing the ordinances on the plan. “But it’s worked," countered Miller. "We’re in a better position than anyone else in Virginia.” Dr. Kxebser asked it tne Planners had received an opinion in writing from Commonwealth Attorney George Davis as to which takes precedence—the zoning ordinance or the subdivision ordinance. At last month’s meeting, the Planners requested an answer in writing after learning of Davis’ belief that the subdivision ordinance overrides the zoning ordinance. According to Davis, this effectively removes all growth controls. As long as developers adhere to the criteria set forth in the subdivision ordinance, then the Supervisors and Planning Commissioners have no , option but to approve development proposals, according to the Commonwealth Attorney. Miller answered that the Commission had received no written response from Davis but had met with him and the Board of Supervisors in a special executive session. When asked what Davis had said, Miller declined to elaborate, stating that he wasn’t clear on the Commonwealth Attorney’s opinions and would prefer not to relay second-hand information. He suggested instead that Krebser ask Davis himself. Miller concluded that the Planning Commissioners were checking with other legal experts to see if what Davis maintained was correct. JAMES M.

Social Security Will Make It Past 2000 The social security system is assured sufficient income into the 21st century, Bruce A. Hundley, social security manager in Culpeper, said recently. The additional income provided by 1977 legislation virtually eliminates the financial problems faced by social security during the past few years, Hundley said. At the same time, the additional cost to most workers Will be moderate. For example, under the old law, a worker with 1978 average earnings of $10,800 would have paid taxes of SI,201 in 1987 on average earnings estimated to rise to S18.600 by that year. Instead, under the new law, his 1987 tax will be about $1,311, an increase of only $130 for the year over what he would have paid under the old law. This is about $2.50 more a week. The first year the social security tax rate will be higher under the new law is 1979. The 1979 tax rate for employers and employees each will rise to 6.13 per cent from 6.05 per cent. The rate will increase in steps until it reaches 7.65 per cent in 1990 and after. Under the old law, it was scheduled to increase to 7.45 per cent in 2011 and after. Under the new law, as under the old, the maximum yearly earnings subject to the social security tax will rise. The 1979 maximum will be $22,900 instead of $18,900. Additional increases are scheduled until the maximum reaches $29,700 in 1981 under the new law, instead of $21,900 under the old law. After 1981, the maximum will increase automatically as average earnings rise, as it does how. The 1978 tax rate is 6.05 per cent, the same as it would have been under the old law. A worker who has average earnings, about $10,000 in 1977, will pay total social security taxes of $605 in 1978, the same amount payable under the old law. A worker earning $17,700 or more in 1978 will pay a total of $1,071. Under the old law, the selfemployment tax rate of 8.10 per cent for 1978 was scheduled to rise to 8.35 per cent in 1981. Under the new law, it will be 9.30 per cent in 1981. Additional increases are scheduled until the rate reaches 10.75 per cent in 1990 and after. People interested in more information about these changes in the social security law, as well as others that were made, can get a free leaflet describing them at the Culpeper social security office, located at 522 Culpeper Shopping Center. The telephone number is 825-3500. 1979 Turkey Stamp Contest Open The third annual Wild Turkey Stamp Contest, sponsored by the 35,000 member National Wild Turkey Federation, is now open to all wildlife artists residing in the United States.

Jr. • Co., I2MT1 German Vineyard Planting Begun Some 3000 grafted premium German wine-vine*, mainly Riesling, were planted this spring on 1500-acre Island View Farm in Culpeper County, owned by Gerhard W. R. Guth, MD, of Hamburg, West Germany. It is believed to be the first large German vineyard investment in the United States. Planting was supervised by Dr. Guth’s Geisenheimeducated viticulturist Joachim Hollerith. For many years, says R. deTreville Lawrence of the Vinifera Wine Growers Association, The Plains, wine has been made in this country from Riesling, Gewurztraminer and other German wine-vine varieties, but the results have never tasted quite the same as a top Rhine or Mosel-made wine. When the Island View types and perhaps others bear their first harvest in the fall of 1980, the wine will be made by German oenologists. The results will be awaited with much interest by American connisseurs, Mr. Lawrence commented.

During the next five years Dr. Guth plans to expand the planting to 250 acres. At present 11,000 vines are being grafted by Herman J. Wiemer at Bully Hill Vineyard, Hammondsport, N. Y., for planting at Island View next spring. Last fall the region was inspected by Professor Dr. Helmut Becker, head of the German Viticulture Institute, Geisenheim, Rheingau, and Professor Karl Bayer, and both were impressed with the German vine varieties growing in several Northern Virginia Vineyards, including the experimental vineyard of the Vinifera Wine Growers Association at The Plains. Both Professor Becker and Dr. Guth are expected to take part in the seventh annual wine-growing seminar to be held Aug. 26 in conjunction with the wine festival at Middleburg. The event is sponsored by the non-profit Vinifera Association.

FROM BOTHBARRELS Fight For Middle Ground May Determine Winner By GEORGE BOWLES Rappahannock New* Correspondent The race for the U.S. Senate" between Republican Richard Obenshain and Democrat Andrew Miller is, as expected, shaping up into a battle for the broad mass of voters who compose the state’s largely independent political center and moderate right. Obenshain, at this writing, is firmly in command of the far right wing of the Commonwealth’s electorate. This includes not only the increasingly powerful—and increasingly conservative—Republican party apparatus, but also a generous portion of old-line Byrd Organization men. Many of these persons still call themselves Democrats, but in recent statewide elections, they have grazed contentedly in Republican nastures. In addition, Obenshain undoubtedly enjoys the loyalty, albeit with widely varying degrees of enthusiasm, of the GOP rankand-file across the state. There may have been a few defections, but in general the supporters of John Warner and Linwood Holton, Obenshain’s opponents for the senate nomination at last month’s convention, appear to have closed ranks behind the candidate. For the purposes of argument, let us say that this solid Obenshain cadre makes up about 35 per cent of the state’s electorate. Miller, on the other hand, is widely considered to command the left. His grip on the black, liberal and labor vote, however, is far less secure than is his opponent’s on the conservatives. Unlike Obenshain, who will get almost no liberal help, Miller has strong ties to the state’s conservative establishment, a fact which might prove crucial, or even decisive, in the November balloting. These ties, however, have not endeared him to the black, liberal and labor voters—the core of the Henry Howell constituency—who still have not forgotten the bitter gubernatorial primary struggle last year between Howell and Miller. It has been said that these voters will utlimately come down on Miller’s side because they have no place else to go. But this is not necessarily so. While they will not vote for Obenshain, there is a third alternative. They can “go fishing” on election day, and many of them might do so. Nevertheless, the essential base of Miller’s strength lies within the regular Democratic party, the Building? •Paint | •Lumber f •Milwork § •Hardware* Complete One-Step BUILDING SUPPLY Warrenton Buiding Material Co., Inc. on the By-Pa** Warrenton 347-1400 composition of which spans the political spectrum but is heavily weighted to the left. Like Obenshain, Miller can probably count' on a solid cadre of about 35 per cent of the electorate. Thus the battleground will be the remaining 30 per cent of the voters. For the most part, these are moderately conservative white middleclass voters of no certain political moorings, and they are waiting to see which candidate ‘‘talks to them ” The task of making an effective appeal to this vital segment holds far more dangers for Miller than it does for Obenshain. Since it is moderately conservative Obenshain runs little risk of alienating his conservative base by courting them. Miller, however, could shatter his fragile hold on the “Howell constituency” by any mis-step which might be perceived as a sell-out to the conservatives. The candidates have already begun to indulge in the time honored ritual of battering each other by association. Miller will attempt to hang former President Nixon and Sen. William L. Scott around Obenshain’s neck, and Obenshain will attempt to hang President Carter and Howell around Miller's. In conservative Virginia, Miller may have the heavier burden to bear. As the struggle for centerright opens, the candidates have come across as surprisingly similar in their views. In a statement in recent days, Obenshain has joined Miller in calling for a constitutionally required balancing of the Federal budget. Both men have called for a tax cut (although Miller wants an equal spending cut) and both have criticized the President for his neutron bomb decision. Since the two candidates are wooing the same constituency, the philosophical differences between them may well become more blurred than clarified as the campaign intensifies and the summer fades into autumn. The contest, however, is a remarkably straightforward one so far. Both candidates are well within the responsible ethos of Virginia politics. The race is, at least to this point, devoid of flukes, gimmicks or political aberrations. If it stays that way, the result in November could answer an important question: Has the Republican party really become the powerhouse it has appeared to be in recent elections, or has it merely been incredibly lucky in the candidates the Democrats have sent against it? The answer will lie in the outcome of the battle for the center. Religion at its best is the announcer of the supreme ideals by which men must live and through which out finite species Finds its ultimate significance. Yet honesty compels us to admit that religion needs help if it is to make these ideals incarnate in human life. —Joshua Liebman —Andrea Kaye/for The Fauquier Democrat LAZY LOUISE the cat finds the perfect resting place high in a bird feeder which provides shade from scorching sun.

First, the act makes it illegal for a lender to withdraw or refuse credit because of a change in marital status, as long as the woman is still a good credit prospect. “If a married woman wants to use her maiden name, her first name and her husband's surname, or a combined surname instead of her husband's full name, it is legal. Nor is an applicant required to choose a courtesy title such as Miss, Ms. or Mrs.," Mitchell said. Second, the act gives new rights to divorced women. For example, an exhusband’s bad credit rating cannot be used to deny a woman credit unless she signed jointly for credit; lives in a community property state; or is dependent on his income. Also, public assistance, alimony and child support, if paid regularly, can be listed as income.

Such measures are likely to happen only when a husband dies, leaving his wife a joint account that relies only on this income. A woman has recourse under the law if she is denied credit or has an account closed. According to the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the creditor has 30 days to notify the applicant in writing of the decision, giving the reason for denial, or explaining that the reason is available on request. If a woman believes a credit decision against her was based on sex or marital discrimination, the law gives her 30 days to challenge the decision in writing. The creditor has 30 to 100 days to provide her with information used in its evaluation, including the name of the credit bureau. The woman can then ask to review her file at the credit bureau. If mistakes are found, she can request corrections be made and creditors notified. If the woman still believes the credit discrimination was based on sex or marital status, she can seek help from the appropriate federal enforcement agency. The name of this agency can be requested from the creditor. If the case still is not resolved, she can take it to court. Violators found guilty of discrimination are liable for the denied applicant’s damages up to $10,(XX); or, in class action suits, $500,000 or one percent of the creditor’s net worth. The suits must be filed in court within two years of the date of credit denial. A pamphlet on “Women: All You Want To Know About Credit” has been written by Mitchell and Robin B. Parks, who was coordinator of a consumer education project at Virginia Tech. More information is available from Glen H. Mitchell, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Va. 24061 or from the local Extension Office.

New Proofs Required For SS Number Everyone who applies for a social security number, regardless of age or place of birth, must now submit documentary evidence of age, identity, and citizenship or alien status, according to Bruce Hundley, social security manager in Culpeper. In addition, persons 18 or over who are applying for a number for the first time must apply in person. People applying for a duplicate card are flow required to submit evidence of identity. The best evidence of age and citizenship is a birth certificate recorded shortly after birth and this is preferred, Hundley said. Evidence of identity should include material showing the person's picture, signature, date of birth or age, or other identifying information. People not born in the United States should provide evidence of their U. S. citizenship or their immigration documents showing they were lawfully admitted to the U.S. Hundley said that although these new procedures make it more difficult to get a social security number, they are intended to help protect the person’s social security record and to prevent anyone else from misusing the person’s social security number. People intending to apply for a social security number should allow plenty of time before it will be required. Three to four weeks are needed before the card will be delivered, after all required documents have been submitted. All documents submitted as evidence may be verified with the agency which issued them to assure they are valid, Hundley said. A free leaflet.

Personal checks can be used to buy airplane and train tickets if the traveler has identification bearing his name, address, and signature. But the person' who expects to write a check for cash or anything else on a trip is often out of luck. , Shoulder to Cry On Second-party checks are the source of even more despair among travelers, who often end up telling their tales of woe at one of the 69 Travelers Aid booths in the nation's airports, train stations, and bus depots. Second-party checks, such as paychecks, cashier's checks, and money orders, that are made out to the traveler cannot even be used to buy a seat on a plane, train, or bus, Mrs. Ingram told the National Geographic Society. Even when such checks are made out to the transportation line, they are not universally accepted. What kind of money is best to take on a trip? Mrs. Ingram suggests four forms: Travelers checks, at least some of them in small denominations; personal checks, to pay some transportation and some hotel bills, major credit cards, for identification and some purchases; and a bit of cash, to pay extras such as parking fees. Although its main purpose is to help the stranded traveler return home. Travelers Aid does everything from lending an emptypocketed traveler 15 cents for a phone call to helping a destitute passenger put his life back together in a new city. If, for instance, a traveler discovers he lacks the cash to buy a ticket home, a Travelers Aid representative 1 HORSE RACING? YOU BETH Sun., July 30—2:00 P.M.

The best way for a person without money to get home—or anywhere else—is a “prepaid” ticket, Mrs. Ingram says. To get one, the stranded traveler must have a friend dr relative buy a ticket for him in an airline or railway ticket office anywhere in the country. Some bus tickets can also be prepaid. Cash A Bonus Record of the purchase is transmitted by computer or telephone, making the ticket available almost immediately. Some tickets can even be “over-paid,” so that the traveler gets cash back along with the ticket. Besides money tips, Travelers Aid has^ some advice for people picking up their friends at the airport. Before leaving for the airport they should find out the airline, flight number, time of arrival, and the name of the airport in cities that have more than one. And when making flight reservations, passengers should state their destinations clearly. "We had a darling Irish woman land at Dulles recently,” Mrs. Ingram recalled, referring to Dulles International Airport in a suburb of Washington. "She spent a long time trying to call friends in ‘the city of Dulles' until we figured out she thought she was in Dallas.” Because the airline reservation clerk’s misunderstanding had caused the error, the woman got a free ride to her real destination. “Our Specialty” GARAGES Total prioa Induda* auto and walk In doors.

Latham SUMMER VACATION for Miku Mehta of Richmond included a stop over at Piney River Campground near Sperrvville which affords excellent treeclimbing. Good Thing (Continued from Page 1) cycle club called “The Iron Express” came roaring into camp. Several wary campers decided it was time to head “from” the hills when they discovered their new neighbors whom the Waylands say turned out to be among the nicest campers they’ve had. The Club visits regularly now. Acclamation to natural living can even be a dramatic experience for some, especially for two Dutch children who became alarmed when they heard sounds of near by shooting, remembers Cindy, who finally managed to translate enough of their Dutch to assure them of their safety during hunting season. Equipped with hot showers and toilet facilities, Piney River seems the perfect spot for novice as well as experienced campers. With easy access to various hiking trails, national and state parks as well as fishing and hunting areas, it is no wonder that the campground has become such a popular hideaway for those who have made its discovery. Tranquil and pleasant, Piney River is but one of Rappahannock’s many “hospices” for “naturenurturing” individuals. And as long as there are Piney Rivers, we may expect to see that weekend caravan continue its mountain treks. Because one thing is certain—you can’t keep a good thing quiet!

Lime Helps Plant Yields Adding lime to soil will increase plant yields; more efficiently use plant nutrients; and conserve energy, advised Gerald D. McCart, Virginia Tech Extension specialist in soil fertility. “Because Virginia is an area of relatively high rainfall, the soil is basically acid in nature because rainfall leaches out the basic ions, leaving in their place acidic ions. Periodic use of lime will reduce strongly acid soil conditions and produce food and Fiber more economically.” McCart stressed that even though plants appear to grow satisfactorily, over a period of years those plants which are more tolerant of moderately to strongly acid soil conditions have taken over. Many of the plants we see would grow better on ten acid soils. When soil is tested, the results are listed as the pH of the soil. The term pH is a logarithmic value Indicating the degree of acidit^Har alkalinity in a soil sample.^ The number 7 on the pH scale indicates a neutral soil, increasing with increasing alkalinity and decreasing with increasing acidity. “Most of our food and fiber crops grow best in the pH Tange of 5.8 to 63. Some like blueberries, grow better at a pH level of 4.8 to 5.2; whereas a legume crop like alfalfa grows best in the pH range of 6.5 to 7, McCart said. Lime will also increase the efficiency of the use of applied plant nutrients. All of the major plant nutrients are taken up more efficiently by plants in the pH range of 5.8 to 7. .v ■ The major plant nutrients are nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, magnesium; and calcium. In this pH range, these elements are present in an ionic form that plants can take into their system. Plants can only take nutrient elements in a Specific ionic form. When the toil pH range k below 5.5 or above 7, certain of the nutrient elements form Compound* or ions which cannot be used by the plants. Therefore, in areas east of the Mississippi, It is important that soils be periodically limed to produce the desired pH range. Another benefit of liming the soil is the conservation of energy. This is accomplished primarily in the form of higher yields per unit of energy used. Energy use in growing food and fiber crops is involved in the power source used (primarily ftiei), equipment used, and in the plant nutrients that are added. Growth of plants in the optimum sol) pH range of 6 to 6.S will result in higher Itappaltannn ckNeuJ^ Classified Ads Reach nearly everyone in Rappahannock County with your Qessfied Ad.
