School Goals Discussed wArnne. nict.ULLOUGH Rappahannock Vh* Staff Writer The Rappahannock School Board members began work on establishing goals and objectives for the coming year at the August Board meeting and improvement in reading performances was high on everyone’s list. Evaluation of teachers also drew attention as did community-school relations. Board members Alan Stokes, the first to reel off concerns, stated that the superintendent should be ready to upgrade basic skills of high school students by 20 percent and elementary students by 25 percent. He called for an examination on basic competencies to be given to eighth graders under the direction of the central office and proposed that teachers be evaluated monthly with weaknesses noted and dated in writing. Stokes also suggested that school principals encourage teachers to take an active role in the community with the superintendent to work on developing a positive attitude front the public towards the school system. According to Stokes, teachers and students should both follow a “strict moral code of ethics” and teachers need to understand that attributes unbecoming an educator will not be tolerated. School Board member Walter Masterson proposed that school-community relations be improved by having teachers make home visits. Masterson also called for more attention directed towards reading curriculum and more aid to new and inexperienced teachers and administrators. Monthly Grading Students, teachers and (Continued on Page 5) Cafeteria Coordinator Approved 7 By UAPHNEWfaiMHJGH RapiMkumirli IVwn Stuff I rttrr Another costly federal mandate—and what other kind of federal mandate is there?—has been slapped on the Rappahannock school system. Superintendent William Bloomer reported at the August 8 School Board meeting that he needed authorization to hire a cafeteria coordinator in order to implement the new cost base accounting system required by the Department of Agriculture. Dr. Bloomer told the Board members that the Department of Agriculture had ordered all states to institute cost base accounting so the Department will have some measure of comparison between the c«.>st of lunch programs throughout the country. The new system will require 25 to 30 reports filled out per month and these reports will determine the amount of reimbursement that the county receives for school lunches, according to Bloomer. The reports, he said, will cover everything from "pre-costing menus" to the “allocation of percentages to the various parts of the program." The new system will be much more complicated than Virginia's old "operation only" accounting system. Bloomer continued. "The present cafeteria cooks don't have the necessary expertise to fill out the required forms," he said, noting that the managers had picked up the rudiments of the new accounting system at special classes in Blacksburg. In addition to costing out and planning meals, the coordinator will have to set up a depreciation schedule for all cafeteria equipment at both schitols. Bloomer added. “Will this improve participation (in the lunch program) at the high school?" asked Board member Walter Masterson. "Will it improve the palatability of the food?" As part of the new accounting system, Bloomer answered, the coordinator will be trying to develop menus that will encourage more participation, as well as reduce operation costs. He suggested that the coordinator, who’s salary will be paid out of cafeteria fiinds, be hired for a minimum of three days a week at the beginning. The job, he noted, will be time consuming as it will be necessary to pre-cost and post-cost all menus with the procedure repeated everytime there’s a change in supply prices. “It will probably take a full year before the operation is truly functional.” he said. “Before we get a refund from the federal government, we must supply them with all the requested data," Bloomer emphasized. If the forms are not filled out properly, the county will receive less money, he warned. “We’ll wind up losing more money (than the cost in salary) if we don’t hire a coordinator," he maintained. "After the program is initiated, it seems to me that the cafeteria workers can take it from there,” said chairman Beverly Massie, (Continued on Page 4) A MFW/ ri ip , , . . .

Kenneth Robinson who arranged lor it to be flown over the Capitol on June 17, 1977. Sunday Crash Takes One Life A series of traffic crashes including one fatality, and collisions occurred during the weekend in Rappahannock. Charles William Jenkins, 26, of Washington was the fatal victim of a single-car traffic crash Sunday night near Huntly. Jenkins was a passenger in a vehicle driven by James Franklin Stringfellow of Marshall. Stringfellow is in critical condition in Winchester Memorial Hospital, ac Health Clinic Opens Its Doors The new Rappahannock Mental Health Clinic has opened its doors at offices in the renovated Clopton house next door to Trinity Episcopal Church in Washington and office manager Becky Burke is handling operations there front a card table until furniture is delivered. Mrs. Burke and Jim McGarvey will be the only full-time staff at the clinic. Dog Show Set The Culpeper Animal Welfare League will sponsor its second annual dog show at Mountain Run Lake Park on August 27. Any breed of dog registered with the American Kennel Club is eligible for competition. Registration at $2.50 per dog will be held between 8:30 and 10:30 a.m. with the show beginning at 11 a.m. Admission is free and the public is invited. Sandwiches and soft drinks will be available at the grounds located off Route 29 on Route 718. For further information, contact Mrs. Wilson at 825-2610. Proceeds from the all-breed fun match will benefit the Culpeper Animal Shelter. McGarvey is the director and will handle direct patient services while Mrs. Burke will serve as receptionist and be responsible for referals, file management and emergency calls. Becky Burke comes to the clinic after a year as elegibility worker for the Madison County Welfare Department. Prior to that, she worked for six and a half years for Rappahannock's Welfare Department—three and a half years as office assistant and three years as administrator for the food stamp program. Mrs. Burke said she sought the job as Mental Health Clinic office manager because she believed in mental health programs and felt a full-time clinic would be giK»d for the county. She added that she also wanted to return to work in the community where she lived. The new clinic, part of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Mental Health Center and Community Services Board, will offer 24-hour emergency service with regular office hours from 8:30 to 4:30 on weekdays. Telephone number for appointments is 675-3329. Mrs. Burke stressed that evening appointments can be arranged if necessary. cording to Trooper R. A. Baines who is investigating the crash. Baines said that Stringfellow was operating a 77 Monza on Rute 522 between Flint Hill and Huntly when he lost control of the car and plowed three plank fences. Both the driver and passenger were thrown out of the vehicle, he said. (Jenkins obituary inside.) In another crash the same evening on Route 211 J. Scott Chaffee of Washington operating a 69 Ford, lost control of the car and struck an embankment. A passenger, Darlene Doris Stokes sustained a shoulder injury. Chaffee was cited for driving while intoxicated, according to Baines, the arresting officer. He estimated damage to the vehicle at $500. In other traffic mishaps, charges are pending in a two vehicle, rear-end collision Friday in front of the Arco Station at Sperryville on Route 211. Manley W. Turner of Fredericksburg operating a 77 Toyota stopped behind a turning vehicle and was struck in the rear by a 69 Plymouth driven by Christopher Athey of Falls Church. Trooper Baines estimated the damage at $900 to the Toyota and at $700 to Athey's car. Later that evening Everett J. Estes, Jr. of Washington was involved in a collision near Huntly. He maintained (Continued on Page 2) THE NEW MENTAL HEALTH OFFICES may be almost empty but the Rappahannock Clinic is still open for business. Becky Burke of Washington takes care of her job as office manager from a folding chair and card table with a telephone and a large cardboard box for a filing cabinet. Office furniture and supplies are expected anytime but until then, said Mrs. Burke, we re operating with the bare essentials so we can begin services to the community.” Park Land Swaps Declared Legal By DAPHNE McCULLOUGH Rappahannock Vwi Staff Writer In announcing on July 3 that Park authorities had abandoned plans to exchange 405 acres of Shenandoah National Park land for private property in Greene County, Superintendent Robert Jacobsen emphasized that the action was taken in response to citizen opposition—not because the trade was illegal under federal or Virginia law. An opinion released August 2 by the Office of the Solicitor of the U. S. Department of the Interior supports Jacobsen’s position. David A. Watts, Acting Associate Solicitor for Conservation and Wildlife, holds in a ten-page legal opinion that “the exchange of lands recently proposed in Shenandoah National Park is authorized pursuant to both federal and state law.” Watts states that exchanges of park land for privately-owned tracts may be consumated under federal law when both areas are within the park boundaries. He maintains that this is the case with the proposed exchange of Rappahannock Park land for private property in Greene County. He relies on the 1926 statute establishing Shenandoah National Park with boundaries enclosing 52,000 acres. This section, Watts maintains, established a park with authorized boundaries of 521,000 acres while subsequent amendments to federal law “permitted the Secretary of the Interior to begin Park operations and development after certain minimum land areas had vested in the United States...Si nee Congress apparently did not intend for the Park Service to administer the entire 521,000 acre tract until it was in federal ownership, it provided that the Service would administer only those lands owned by the United States. Therefore. the authorized boundaries of the park are the 521,000 acres designated by the 1926 Department of Interior Study.” Park Superintendent Jacobsen, in a letter dated February 18, 1977, to John Capelle, executive director of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District Commission, wrote "personally, 1 do not believe that either the 521,000-acre maximum boundary or the 327,000-acre (Continued on Page 4) McDaniel Is New Administrator Dr. L. Robert McDaniel, assistant superintendent for the Rappahannock school system, came a long way to take his new position in the county in a change that can be measured by more than mites. Dr. McDaniel and his family are formerly from Cook County, Illinois—an area that includes the city of Chicago and seven million people. ‘‘We were five minutes from the largest enclosed shopping mall in the world,” he noted—a far cry from Rappahannock with its population of 5,500 and not even a drug store, not to mention a mall! A desire for a quiet family life plus the wish to get back into the field of public education influenced Dr. McDaniel to leave the Chicago suburbs and accept the position of assistant superintendent here. A 1965 graduate of Wake Forest College with a bachelor’s degree in history. Dr. McDaniel earned his masters degree in education administration from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and went on to receive his doctorate in education administration from Duke University. Between Wake Forest and UNC, Dr. McDaniel interrupted his educational career for a two-year tour of duty with the United States Army as a transportation officer. With the Durham, North Carolina, school system from August 1968 until July 1971, Dr. McDaniel was assistant principal of Rogers-Herr Junior High and principal of North Durham Elementary. He left Durham in 1972 to accept a position as administrative intern for Perrymont Elementary in Lynchburg and was evaluator and director of Title Three programs for the Lynchburg public school system from August 1973 through June 1975. During his stay in Lynchburg, McDaniel also taught “Organization and Administration of Public School” for the Central Virginia Community College. Dr. McDaniel left work in public schools in 1975 to be sales and marketing manager for Borg Warner Educational Systems, a Chicago based firm. His position there required a great deal of traveling. “I was on the road half the nights of the year,” he said. "As a family person, I got tired of that awfully fast.” When he heard of the opening for assistant superintendent in Rappahannock, Dr. McDaniel said he saw the job as a worthwhile position that would enable him to be involved in curriculum. Dissatisfied with traveling excessively, he wanted to move to either Virginia or North Carolina where he and his wife have both family and friends. McDaniel said he was offered several urban positions but was more interested in finding a job in a rural area. “For several months, I lived in traffic—bumper-to-bumper, six lanes. That gets old real fast," he explained. Rappahannock presented not only a challenging job and pleasant family environment, McDaniel said, but also the chance to brush up on his bow hunting skills and other out-door hobbies. Dr. McDaniel and his wife Linda have recently purchased a home in Harris Hollow where they will live with their two daughters —four-year old Kathryn and six-year-old Joanna. The McDaniel’s oldest child will be a first grader at Rappahannock County Elementary School this fall. DR. L. ROBERT McDANIEL is the new assistant superintendent for the Rappahannock County public school system. Washington Carnival Next Week Polo Rescheduled The polo match and barbeque picnic to benefit the Rappahannock Historical Society has been rescheduled for Sunday, September 17, at 4 p.m. on Fannon Field in Castleton. The game, originally set for Sunday, August 13, was postponed due to poor field conditions from the two weeks of rain that the county has had. < Washington firemen will open their annual carnival next week, August 23 through 26 at the carnival grounds east of the town.

Sutphin Attends Dealer Meeting Charles E. Sutphin of Washington was one of the more than 900 Gehl equipment dealerships represented recently at GehIFest '78, in West Bend, Wis. More than 2,600 dealer representatives attended the 6-day meeting which was the largest dealer event in Gehl's 119-year history.

Instead of tripping over the trappings of our athletic bobbies, storage for tennis rackets, skis, Jogging shoes, skates, and golf clubs to mention a few, requires creative planning. Built-ins, modular units, shelves and closets can be converted with ingenuity to hold bulky items. A large trunk or cabinet is a must for home storage. Heavy peg board and hooks if neatly arranged will keep rackets, skis, and small items off the floor and in order. It makes sense to protect your investment in expensive equipment by planning clean, dry storage space.

Now is a good time to make new and different recipes for Christmas gifts. Even your old standard jam recipe with a bright bow around the jar will be a welcomed gift anytime of the year. We have a good publication titled, “Making Pickles and Relishes at Home,” which has good bask recipes. Just call 675-3619 or stop by the Extension Ofice in Washington if you want a copy. If you are making pickles now you may be interested in the common causes of poorquality pickles. Shriveled Pickles — Shriveling may result from using too strong a vinegar sugar, or salt solution at the start of the pickling process. In making the very sweet or very sour pickles, it is best to start with a dilute solution and increase gradually to the desired strength. Overcooking or overprocessing may also cause shriveling. Hollow Pickles — Hollowness in pickles usually results from 1. Poorly developed cucumbers, 2. Holding cucumbers too long before pickling, 3. Too rapid fermentation, 4. Too strong or too weak a brine during fermentation. Soft or Slippery Pickle—These generally result from microbial action which causes spoilage. Once a pickle becomes soft it can not be made firm. Microbial activity may be caused by: 1. Too little salt or acid, 2 Cucumbers not covered with brine during fermentation, 3. Scum scattered throughout the brine during fermentation period, 4. Insufficient heat treatment S. A seal that is not airtight 6. Moldy garlic or spices. Blossoms, if not entirely removed from the cucumbers before fermentation, may contain fungi or yeasts responsible for enzymatic softening of pickles. Dark Pickles—Darkness in pickles may be caused by: 1. Use of ground spices, 2. Too much spice, 3. Iodized salt, 4. Overcooking, S. Minerals in Water, especially iron, 6. Use of iron utensils. At a recent Garden Gub Meeting Mary Schumaker of Flint Hill, shared this recipe for Stuffed Eggplant along with other interesting ideas for your summer produce.

If you have the urge to invest in real estate, listen to what some of the most successful investors have to say about it. Andrew Carnegie: "Ninety percent of all millionaires become so through owning real estate. More money has been made in real estate than in all industrial investments combined.

Park Visits According the statistics released by Shenandoah National Park Superintendent Robert Jacobsen, Park visits in July 1978 totaled 329,100. This compares to 490,100 visits in July 1977—a decrease of 32.9 per cent. To date, visits in Calendar Year 1978 compared to Calendar Year 1977 have decreased 43.2 per cent. Part of the reported decrease may be attributed to new procedures for counting travel instituted January 1, 1978. A new multiplier (2.8 rather than 3.5) is being used for converting vehicles to visitors and travel on only three secondary roads is being counted. Overnight stays in July 1978 totaled 101,082 compared to 110,135 in the same month the previous year. To date, the Park has had 284,782 overnight stays in 1978. Overnight stays for 1977 amounted to 330,570. Maximum temperature in July as measured at Big Meadows Weather Station was 83 degrees. Minimum was 44 degrees and precipitation totaled 6.06 inches.

Beginning in September, Sursum Corda will offer a series of afterschool instructional courses for budding Michaelangelos and would-be followers of Kung Fu. According to Ms. Harris, the after-school classes are an outgrowth of Sursum Corda’s summer camp. “We were teaching an artistically oriented program and the kids developed an interest in this type of course,” she said. Three area professionals—two from Rappahannock and one from neighboring Warren County—will be instructors for the eight-week series. Lois Moore from Flint Hill will teach art. Her class will provide students with an opportunity to experiment with different art forms including drawing, painting, design and print-making. A teacher with a degree in fine arts, Ms. Moore has also worked as a print-maker, painter and commercial artist. Ken Ritvo of Spenyville will lead a course in stone carving. At the beginning of his eight-week series, he will teach the basics of stone identification and the use of stone carving tools. Then the students will make a piece of functional stone work for their homes. Ritvo will be working primarily with alabaster and stones found locally. He began his studies in the craft of stone carving in 1969 and Bridge Hostess Mrs. Charles K. Estes entertained members of the Sperryville Bridge Club at her home Friday evening. Guests were Mrs. E.

J THURSDAY, AUGUST 17,1978 Cart Before The Horse? 1 he Rappahannock supervisors put the cart before the horse when they granted a building permit to the Rappahannock Ski Corporation for its Alpine slide. At the August 3 Board meeting, the Supervisors issued the permit by majority vote. At the same time, they forwarded to the Planning Commission a request for a public hearing on August 31 on zoning ordinance amendments that would allow gravity slides as a use by right in conservation and business districts. However, until those amendments are adopted, gravity slides are allowed only with a special use permit on conservation and business-zoned land, such as the Ski Area property. If the Supervisors are set on the amendments proposed by Commonwealth Attorney George Davis, why bother with a public hearing? They've already announced their intention of adopting the ordinances by issuing the building permit, because without the amen dm aits, the permit’s not worth the paper it’s printed on. The tangle between the Board of Zoning Appeals, the Supervisors and the Rappahannock Ski Corporation is still in litigation but at a pre-trial conference held recently in Leesburg, Judge Carlton Penn ruled that the BZA had jurisdiction to hear the bki Corporation’s request for a special use permit to build an Alpine Slide. His ruling contradicts George Davis’ argument that the Ski Corporation could build its Alpine slide by right with only a building permit. While Penn could conceivably amend his ruling after further study of the county’s zoning maps and ordinance, his opinion stood at the time the Supervisors issued the building permit to the Ski Corporation. It’s curious to note that Attorney Douglas Baumgardner, representing the Ski Corporation at the August 3 Board meeting, stressed that his client wasn’t asking that the permit be immediately approved. However, a majority of the Supervisors felt compelled to go ahead and issue the building permit anyway even though Baumgardner noted that the Ski Corporation wouldn’t act on it until after the ordinance amendments were considered. For the sake of appearances, the Board should have waited. At least then, the Supervisors would have presented the semblance of going into the hearing on the ordinance revisions with open minds to hear what county citizens had to say. Swaps Held Legal (Continued from Page 1) authorized boundary (of Shenandoah Park) are still feasible for acquisition by any means." However, Watts, in his legal opinion insists that “the 521.000 acre authorized boundary has continuing viability" based on legislative history relating to Shenandoah National Park. Legal Under State Law In addition to the questions of federal law relating to land exchange authorities. Watts notes that the issue was raised as to whether park lands proposed for exchange would revert to the commonwealth of Virginia if the exchange were implemented. He discounts this argument, "When Congress enacted the legislation of 1926 establishing Shenandoah National Park, it clearly intended that the United States would acquire title to park lands in fee simple absolute," Watts maintains. He notes that Virginia condemned tracts of land and. together with land donated by private oi gant/ations, conveyed the land to the U.S. with “no ie\ci ter clauses or other limn at ions on title.” flie deed of December 26, I934. transferring title from i he Commonwealth to the Cnited States carries a notation that the land is to be used "for park purposes.” Wan maintains that pioviston m the deed stating hat the property is to be used for a specific purpose will not result in the oration of a qualified tee...Therefore, in our view, he deed conveyed fee simple it le." he writes. Watts notes that Virginia enacted a tatute on March 2b. 1936. that provided: “If i la United States shall cease io be the owner of any lands, or any part thereof, granted oi conveyed to it by the Commonwealth of Virginia, or if i he purposes of any such grant or conveyance to the United States shall cease, or it ilie United States shall for five consecutive years fail to use any such land for the purposes of the grant or conveyance, then, in that event, the right and title to such land, or such part thereof, shall immediately revert to the commonwealth ot Virginia." Transfer of park land from Virginia to the United States was consumatcd on December 16, 1935—three months before enactment of the reversion law. “Clearly,” maintains Watts, “the statute dues not have the effect of divesting the United States of land that it acquired prior to its enactment. Any other interpretation would present grave constitutional questions...Whatever impact the 1936 Virginia statute has on conveyances of land to the United States, it applies only to those transfers made after its enactment.” "Further,” Watts claims, “the 1936 statute has no effect on conveyances of land by Virginia to the United States for purposes of inclusion in Shenandoah National Park, even those made after its enactment...There is no indication in the enactment of the 1936 law that the Commonwealth intended to repeal or amend the specific legislation relating to Shenandoah, which authorized fee simple conveyances and made a cession of legislative jurisdiction." New Cafeteria Coordinator (Continued from Page 1) adding that a coordinator would only be needed to start the new accounting system. Bloomer disagreed. “Based on the current individuals who attended classes in Blacksburg, I don’t think the personnel can handle filling out all the forms AND what they’re doing now,” he maintained. Mrs. Massie still wasn’t convinced. Once the cafeteria workers have filled out the forms a few times, "I don't see why it should take that long," she insisted. Bloomer replied that the format for the accounting system may be changed at any time by the Department of Agriculture. He noted that the coordinator could be hired for one year only. “I think there are sufficient funds in the cafeteria account to pay the coordinator,” he said. If not. Bloomer stated he will go to Richmond and ask the State Board of Education for more money. Earlier in the meeting, the School Board had voted unanimously to raise the price of lunch at the elementary school from 40 cents to 45 cents and from 45 cents to 50 cents at the high school. Apparently, this increase had no relation to the costs of hiring a cafeteria coordinator and was instead required to balance inflationary pressures. Acknowledging that lunch prices hadn’t been jumped in the previous four years, Mrs. Massie maintained that it wouldn’t be "fair to the children of this county to raise the price of their lunch to meet another mandated requirement.” “Do you have someone in mind for the job?" Mastcrson asked the Superintendent. ‘‘Not particularly,” Bloomer answered, ex plaining that the new position would be classified in the same category as bookkeeper, secretary and other non-professional school system employees with salary in a corresponding range. Board member Alan Stokes asked if it would be possible to share a coordinator with a neighboring county. Bloomer answered that he wasn’t sure but he expected Culpeper and Madison Counties to hire full-time cafeteria coordinators based on the number of schools they would have to work with. He added that he would look into the possibility. Mrs. Massie asked for a motion authorizing the new position. Her request met with silence until Masterson moved that the matter be tabled. "Not reacting is worse than saying aye or nay," Mrs. Massie responded. "That's not my intention,” replied Masterson, adding that he thought the switch to cost base accounting was good since it would "systematize the whole state...1 think we’re hung up on the person (to fill the position),” he said. Masterson suggested checking through the school system first to see if the county already had an employee with bookkeeping skills who wanted the job. Mrs. Massie responded that she didn't think the School Board would be able to find anyone willing to take on the task for nothing. “I didn't mean that,” Masterson countered. The Board voted unanimously to authorize Bloomer to hire a cafeteria coordinator, stipulating that he check for interested applicants in the school system first. > Gtfc€f*&Y.‘P r From Both Barrels The ‘Coalition’And John Warner By GEORGE BOWLES Rappahannock Ncwa Cocrcapondent In the wake of the Republican State Central Committee’s nomination Saturday of John Warner to re.place the late Richard D. Obenshain as the GOP candidate for the U. S. Senate, the party leadership faces BOH1JS an immediate and critical task. This task is to hold together for Warner the "grand coalition” which had been so skillfully assembled in support of the Obenshain candidacy. That coalition was composed of regular Republicans of all philosophical hues, disaffected conservative Democrats and conservative independents. At the time of the tragic airplane crash which killed Obenshain earlier this month, it had appeared to be a well-nigh invincible campaign apparatus. Keeping it intact is essential to Republican hopes of defeating Democrat Andrew P. Miller in the November election. Yet the task of rallying this coalition to the support of a Warner candidacy poses a formidable array of complex problems. The first of these has to do with the new candidate's basic political philosophy. For some reason, there is still a nagging doubt in the minds of some that he is a genuine conservative, or at least a conservative of sufficient dedication and commitment to merit the do-or-die devotion which characterized the Obenshain following. Had To Pom Test So profound is this doubt that the Obenshain staff and other key party conservatives felt it necessary to conduct a three-hour closed door interrogation of Warner last Tuesday night to test his ideological purity. This is in spite of the fact that the candidate had been on the stump for months prior to his narrow loss of the nomination to Obenshain at the state convention in June. As the conclusion of the session, he received the conservatives' somewhat reserved blessing. In a further attempt to allay the conservative fears, Gov. John Dalton held a news conference two days before the committee meeting and bestowed his personal endorsement on Warner. In doing so, he recited a litany of conservative credentials which he said Warner could properly claim. Dalton said Warner would Fight runaway federal spending, fight for a major tax cut and a balanced budget, fight for a strong national defense, fight further encroachment from Washington and, said Dalton, “He will be listened to because he knows Washington without being contaminated by Washington.” The emphasis on Washington was no accident. It was clearly an attempt to respond to one of the conservatives’ major concerns. Most Virginia politicians have built their careers and nourished their political ambitions on the tried-andtrue formula of presenting themselves as defenders of home and Commonwealth against the evils of the federal government. Washington has been second only to Moscow in the southern conservative’s demonology. Experience In Washington But Warner has spent virtually all of his professional life working at high levels within the Washington bureaucracy. That service includes five years as Secretary of the Navy during the Nixon administrations. Warner claims, with considerable justification, that his experience in the Federal government would give him a clear advantage in learning the ropes if he wins the election to the Senate. Some of the conservatives of his party, however, take another view of his government service. To them, Warner is somewhat like the southern boy who went north to fight for the Union, and after the war returned to his home town hoping to run for the legislature. The analogy is, of course, imperfect. But for the conservative purist, the imperfection is one of degree rather than of kind. In spite of Dalton’s words, they harbor a suspicion that Warner may, indeed, be "contaminated." Another factor troubling the coalition is Warner’s personal image. The candidate is urbane, suave and sophisticated. He is considered handsome and youthful in his appearance. He has great personal wealth and is a certifiable member of the jet set. He is twice married and the sixth husband of the lovely and deservedly celebrated Liz Taylor. In short, he has little in common with the middle class, garden variety, good of boy Virginia conservative voters whom he must rally to his banner by the hundreds of thousands in the next 12 weeks if he is to have a chance of defeating Miller. Obenshain, a powerful and respected party insider, had little trouble in forging the coalition. Warner, essentially an outsider, faces a wholly different set of problems in keeping it from falling apart. Letters To The Editor Land Exchange To the editor: Through the courtesy of U.S. Representative, J. Kenneth Robinson, we have just received a copy of a ten-page memorandum to the Director of the National Park Service from the Associate Solicitor, Conservation and Wildlife, of the U. S. Department of the Interior. Mr. Robinson had requested from the Solicitor’s office an opinion as to the legality of the proposed exchange of Shenandoah National Park land in Rappahannock and Warren Counties for private land in Greene County. In the covering letter to Mr. Robinson, the statement is made that the “legal issues are rather involved.” The memorandum states: “Although the National Park Service has recently announced its decision not to consummate the exchange, an analysis of the legal issues involved is still appropriate to resolve some of the confusion surrounding this issue.” The conclusion of the memorandum is that the exchange is legal on both the Federal and State levels. According to the Associate Solicitor, the proposed exchange of lands does not involve a change in the Park boundary. It is viewed, rather, as an exchange of lands which are already within the Park boundaries. While Shenandoah National Park now has title to only 194,000 acres, Congress originally authorized the acquisition of 521,000 acres. It would seem that the Park signs along the west side of Rappahannock County, labeled “US BOUNDARY, NPS,” are not to be taken at face value. According to the authorization, the "real” boundary extends to the outskirts of Washington and Sperryville, while in the north part of the County it reaches to Rt. 522 in places, and southward it follows Rt. 231 for some distance, crossing it at one point and extending considerably to the east of Rt. 231. As for the Virginia law requiring reversion to the CuanimonwealUi a>f any lands which the United States abandons, the memorandum states that this does not apply, since the law was enacted on March 28, 1936, three months after the Park was transferred to the United States in fee simple, on December 16, 1935. All neighbors to any national park should note that apparently the National Park Service intends to proceed with exchanges of Park land for private land. The legal interpretation seems to us to be based upon specious arguments, and to support future arbitrary acts by Park administrators in accordance with their in terpretations of narrow Park interests. We believe that such exchanges of Park land for private land involve issues of sacred trust for land which has been entrusted to Park administrators for their protection, and not for purposes of bargaining. Park land should be alienated only under very stringent controls, perhaps requiring an Act of Congress. If you agree with us, we suggest that you write to the National Park Service and to members of Congress, expressing your opinions. A. STANLEY THOMPSON BARBARA S. THOMPSON Sperryville Closed Sessions To the editor: Once again the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors chose to meet in closed session regarding a matter of tremendous importance to many of the residents of this county. The Board claims to be the elected representative of “all the people.” However, it seems to me that in the seven months since the denial of the application for the Alpine Sled, the Board has done little or nothing to gather any new information on the environmental impact on this community. It was suggested at the BZA hearings that before a building permit can be issued, the state, at no charge to the county, would undertake such a study. However, the only agency in the county who can request this is the Board of Supervisors. They have done nothing! I would like to suggest that should the Alpine Sled become a reality, the county undertake to study other installations of this type so that we might learn what goods and services the county would have to supply and how revenue is obtained by other counties (i.e. amusement tax. if any) to cover some of the cost. It is now August. Perhaps the Board can still vote to have a referendum in November on the question of the Alpine Sled and some of the open-ended zoning. The cost of such a referendum would be minimal and would reflect, most importantly what the residents of our county desire. The issue now is that the county government has done nothing on the last seven months to Find out anything more about the impact which the Alpine Slide will create in terms of water, roads, traffic, garbage, law. and order (to mention a few) and then to share these findings with our fellow residents, most of whom are vitally interested in their community. HENRY R. GORFEIN Harris Hollow Road Warner Would Build On ‘Great Coalition’ RICHMOND—Former Navy Secretary John W. Warner vowed to build on the legacy of Richard D. Obenshain Saturday as he accepted the uncontested Republican nomination to the United States Senate. A resident of Fauquier County, Warner ran a close second behind Obenshain at the Republican State Convention last June, then joined forces with his former rival by serving as an honorary statewide cochairman of the Obenshain campaign. That campaign was cut short earlier this month when Obenshain was killed in a plane crash in Chesterfield County. “Dick Obenshain left us a legacy we should never forget,” Warner said "a legacy of courage, com mitment and, above all, principle.” Following his remarks before the Republican State Central Committee, Warner was joined by Mrs. Helen Obenshain, who urged her late husband’s supporters to help elect Warner "so that we will have a strong voice that will join the other great Senators in standing up for what is right for America.” She said that Warner will “stand up for what this party believes and what the great majority of Americans believe. We must all do our part. I intend to help John in every way I can.” Warner said he will “seek the support of that great coalition of moderate to conservative Virginians who have kept the Commonwealth on an even course.” He added that he was "proud to be a part of that coalition” when he campaigned in 1976 for Senator Harry Byrd. Jr. and President Gerald Ford, for John Dalton in 1977 and for Obenshain this year. Warner said he will emphasize two issues: the nation's economy and national defense. “Taxation is getting out of hand and is destroying the initiative and incentive needed to create jobs and build prosperity." he said. Warner also repeated his support for a plan now in Congress to cut federal income taxes across the board by an average of 33 per cent, to be phased in over a three year period.

Holschuh asked all county residents to be especially generous in their support of Lions Club fund raising activities for the traditional sales of apples, home made apple butter, honey, and fruit cakes conducted in the fall, other fund raising projects will be announced from time to time. Lions International is the largest service club organization in the world, with 1,250,000 members in 149 countries. School Goals Discussed (Continued from Page 1) administrators need to be graded on a monthly basis, he continued. In addition, Masterson said, funding possibilities through private grants and trusts should be investigated. Board member Paul Nichols’ list was short and to the point. Nichols said he wanted to see compliance with s t a t e - m a n d a t ed Standards of Quality and progress in moving the school bus garage back off Route 211. Mrs. Massie read the list of goals and objectives submitted by Board member Arthlinda Quaintance, absent from the August 8 meeting. Mrs. Quaintance called for more emphasis on reading in grades one through three, help for new and inexperienced teachers, strict promotion policy in primary grades and discussion of teacher salaries earlier in the year. Mrs. Massie, in reading her own list, joined the other Board members in stressing that more emphasis needs to be placed on the basic skills, particularly on reading in grades one through three. She also propped a better guidance department for the high school, earlier supervision for new teachers, better evealuations for all teachers and improved community-school relations. Education Association president Don Bomberger asked if improvements and expansion to the school plants could be included in the goals and objectives. “That wouldn’t be appropriate for this year,” Mrs. Massie replied. She added that the September School Board meeting had been designated for a special discussion on capital outlay projects that will be required in the near future. Monthly Review “I'd like to have a monthly review of our goals and objectives instead of waiting until May to look at them,” said Masterson, noting that the May Board meeting had been set aside for an examination of how the system was faring in meeting the goals established the previous fall. Mrs. Massie interjected that a monthly review wouldn't have to be lengthy—just a brief resume by either the superintendent or assistant superintendent. "Let’s see what the goals are first before deciding on how often to review them,” countered Nichols. ‘‘I think Mr. Nichols’ point is well-taken,” agreed superintendent William Bloomer, adding that giving an update on six goals would be easier than updating 15 on a monthly basis. “Most of the goals will probably be general goals (for which it would be) hard to determine progress on a month to month basis,” he said. Mrs. Massie disagreed, calling the concerns expressed by the Board members “fairly specific” rather than general. “I’m concerned about the reading program,” stated Masterson. If the same students, the same teachers and the same curriculum are involved, he asked, what’s to stop a repeat of last year's record of 50 percent of the elementary students reading below grade level? "I want to know every month...I want reports. If the kids aren't progressing, I want to know why,” he insisted. “We'll try to provide the Board with any and all information that you desire,” agreed Dr. Bloomer. “Reading is foremost in all our minds,” Paul Nichols acknowledged, at the same time, he questioned the desirability of requiring teachers to test students every month in order that the School Board be given a progress report. Mrs. Massie responded that a heavier testing load wouldn't result from the Mrs. Carney Attends Nominating Session Mrs. Francis Carney of Woodville, chairman of the Rappahannock County Republican Committee, attended the special nominating session of the Republican State Central Committee in Richmond on Saturday. The Committee met at the John Marshall Hotel to name Baked Goods Wanted The Ladies’ Auxiliary of the Washington Fire and Rescue Squads is seeking donations of baked goods —pies, cakes, c»>okies, etc. —to sell at their food stand at the annual Washington carnival scheduled this year for Wednesday.

Broyhill and Attorney General and Mrs. Marshall Coleman. Afterwards, Mrs. Carney attended a gettogether at the home of the Attorney General and his wife Nikki. School Fees Parents and students in grades kindergarten through seven are urged to visit the elementary school on Friday, August 25, from 2 p.m. until 8 p.m. to meet teachers, pay school fees and locate homerooms. Fees for kindergarten through seventh grade will be SI2 and special education fees are $8.50. Charges do not include workbooks which will be available for purchase as needed. monthly reports as the reading program itself would be evaluated, not individual students. Monthly review would make it easier to determine if the goals and objectives established by the Board are realistic, according to Mrs. Massie. Frequent review would also make it easier to determine if there were problems with how material was being presented. “It doesn’t take two months for a teacher to find out if Johnny’s having trouble with fractions,” she said. The Board members voted unanimously to hold a monthly review of the goals and objectives established for the coming school year. Mrs. Massie agreed to compile a list including each Board member’s concerns so priorities could be established from the list at next month’s meeting. Work Calendar The Board also approved a work calendar for the coming year, designed to give School Board members a month’s time for review of special programs before voting for adoption. In September, the Board will consider priorities for capital outlay and set a date for a meeting with the Board of Supervisors to discuss building projects. The October agenda will include contractual purchasing and personnel salaries; November, teacher evaluation procedures for inclusion in the policy handbook; December, update for fiveyear vocational plan; January, minimum competency testing for graduation and update for the special education plan; February, budget and update for the six-year plan; March, budget; April, review of policy manual; May, evaluation of goals and objectives in terms of results obtained and a separate meeting for evaluation of the superintendent; June, Title I program presented. irl |Sally Field BURT RIYNOIOS RRONT ROYAL DRIVI IN t.». b.y,s| OPENS 8:3Q/SHOW 9:Qo| i ViRYlNINC CAN HAPPtN ON *ttlalUiu Van Pm f« b Sat. karfi Fir sr Sun (•HI .sAT .si N I a Paper ^ to College!

r mil A Insulation Standards Adopted New insulation standards for housing in rural areas financed by the Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) have been put into effect, James H. Allen, Culpeper Supervisor announced today. Implementation of the standards, first scheduled for March 15, had been held up during federal court consideration of a suit by the National Association of Home Builders challenging the new code. After FmHA prepared additional environmental material and a further hearing on the case was held, U. S. District Judge George L. Hart Jr., dissolved a preliminary injunction. While certain aspects of the lawsuit remain to be resolved, the new insulation standards can now be implemented. The new thermal standards are designed to provide for heavier insulation and other measures to make FmHABULLOCK’S Quality Cleaners Complete Dry Cleaning and Laundry Service Rugs & Drapes 19 E. Jackson Front Royal, Va. 635-3055 financed housing less cost! to heat or cool, and t conserve energy. They will apply to newlybuilt homes and apartments financed by FmHA, and, insofar as is economically feasible, to existing housing purchased or repaired with FmHA loans. Better weatherizing through more effective insulation. storm doors and windows and other techniques will help families to reduce high fuel and energy expenses that jeopardize their ability to afford adequate housing. Details of the standards, which vary by climatic zones, are available from the FmHA County Office, 604 S. Main St., Culpeper 22701. Housing loans administered by FmHA, a U. S. Department of Agriculture agency, serve all rural areas including towns of up to 10.000, and designated towns of 10,000 to 20,000 that are not in Standard Metropolitan Statistical (SMSA) Areas and have a shortage of mortgage credit for families of low and moderate income. FmHA will finance approximately 150-200 homes and two apartments (50-100 units) in the CulpeperMadison-Rappahannock County Area during fiscal year 1978. f~hia/ CJribuf/ CLORE FUNERAL HOME "The Home of Thoughtful Service" PHONE 825-2361 CULPEPER CEMETERY MEMORIALS on Selected Stock Stock RCI\ Televisions *a i« Rappahannock Famtors' Co-op IptrryvUt, Va. .A„1°T™,TY BIBLESCH00L «• h',d '■* ^ ^ong the instructors was M„.

Normally between Aug. 20 and Sept. 15 is the most desirable seeding season in northern and western Virginia. One to three weeks later is the best time for seeding in Southern Piedmont and eastern Virginia. "Home owners using Kentucky bluegrass or one of the fescues will find late summer or early fall the preferred time of the year to seed these species," said J. F. Shoulders, Virginia Tech Extension specialist in turf. "Seedlings establish satisfactorily only when proper conditions exist. Late summer and early fall are the times when temperatures, the length of day, and moisture are more favorable for turfgrasses to establish than they are at any other season, including spring.” Shoulders said that a number of bluegrass varieties, tall fescue, and fine fescues that have performed well and persisted under Virginia climatic conditions are recommended for use in the state. Many varieties are not recommended because they are inferior or have not been tested long enough to establish their adaptability. "An important principle, established through research in Kentucky bluegrass TEST DRIVE A SNAPPER ON YOUR LAWN W*0mdLoad Cjritr man fat ustd or slopes Our ihowioom isn ( th* b*st piac* lo show oil a S»ap^«r Your lo»n it So com* into our show room and loo* ov*r Snapp*r riding mow*rt ll you life* what you s** w* 11 bring on* ov*r tor a i*si dn»• With no obligor ion to buy Bui b* r*ody 10 buy bscauMa Snapper sells iis*lt Largest Lawn and Gardes Dealer in the Area.

Avoid planting a single variety alone. A blend of adapted varieties enables the turf to persist and to grow better under a wide range of conditions," Shoulders said. In northern and western Virginia, where Kentucky bluegrass is adapted, a superior blend includes Merion Kentucky bluegrass, at the rate of 20 to 35 per cent by weight; Kenblue or South Dakota Certified Kentucky bluegrass, also at 10 to 35 per cent by weight; and one or two of the following varieties added at from between 10 to 30 per cent each by weight: Adelphi, Baron, Birka, Fylking, Plush, Sydsport or Victa. Packaged seed meeting the above requirements and displaying a “Maryland-Virginia recommended" identification tag is available in numerous localities. When the blend is used in shaded areas, from 20 to 50 per cent by weight of Pennlawn or Jamestown red fescue may be added. Certified seed is preferred. Shoulders suggested that the use of tall fescue should be considered in locations, where bluegrass is not well1 suited, for play areas and for problem lawns. “Kentucky 31 tall fescue is tolerant to a greater range of climatic and soil conditions than is Kentucky bluegrass,” he said. “Kentucky 31 fescue is adapted to either sun or shade. It may be seeded alone or with up to 10 pier cent of Kenblue or South Dakota (Certified) Kentucky bluegrass. “Avoid the use of Kentucky bluegrass varieties that are too agressive to tall fescue,” he cautioned. “When selecting the blend or mixture of seed, users should insist upon certified seed of each variety in the blend. This is the guarantee of varietal purity,” the specialist noted. CENTEL Adds Two Firms Central Telephone & Utilities Corporation, the parent company of Central Telephone of Virginia, has acquired two communications-related firms in Illinois. The new subsidiaries are Acoustics Development Corporation, a company specializing in telephone booth manufacturing and marketing, and Consolidated Cable Utilities, Inc., which provides cable TV programming to several communities west of Chicago. Central Telephone & Utilities’ purchase of the two firms will “broaden CTU’s future in the total communications field and enhance investment opportunities for our shareholders,” said P ibert P. Reuss, chairman anJ chief executive offices. "These are growth business based on technologies with which we already are familiar and share marketing, engineering and technical expertise.” Financial details of the transactions, which are subject to regulatory approvals, were not released. However, the company indicated that about 450,000 shares of its stock would be issued in the transactions.

—Typical Fatal Accident Profiled— How would you describe a typical fatal traffic accident in Virginia? Data from accident reports received by the Virginia Department of Transportation Safety provides a profile of fatal accidents during the first six months of 1978. According to the reports the average accident occurred either in the Tidewater area or in Northern Virginia on a rural route, straight and level with marked lanes. The road surface was dry with no defects. The surrounding area was open country. Driver vision was not obstructed. The motorist involved in the crash was male, in his twenties, a Virginia resident with a Virginia driver’s license. He had not been drinking and had no physical defects. At the time of the accident the driver was travelling in a SS m.p.h. speed zone, collided with a fixed object, usually a tree, and was killed. He failed to wear a seat belt or restraint, but was usually not ejected. His vehicle was a passenger car with no defective equipment. “From such information we can gain a better understanding of the factors which contribute to highway fatalities,” said John T. Hanna, director, Virginia Department of Trans* portation Safety. "It’s difficult to determine the exact cause of a ‘mystery crash’ involving one driver who runs off the road and crashes into a fixed object. So many things must be considered such as weather, traffic, lighting, road, vehicle and driver condition. In most of the fatal crashes reported this year weather, road and vehicle conditions were good so the driver must have lost control for some other reason, possibly inattention or fatigue.” Driving requires a motorists’ complete concentration, according to Hanna. He must keep his eyes moving, taking in the complete picture down the road and to the sides of the highway. Staring continuously at a fixed point ahead is dangerous and can have a hypnotic effect on a motorist. Drivers need to scan their environment, looking from one side of the roadway to the other, periodically checking the rear view mirrors and instrument panel. "Highway hypnosis or lack of alertness is especially a problem for the driver traveling on a straight smooth road where there is little variety to break the monotony,” said Hanna. "Stopping every couple of hours or -100 miles at the most for limbering up and refreshments is one good way to avoid drowsiness on long trips.” "Drivers also need to keep a close watch on their speedometer,” warned Hanna. “Motorists traveling at the same speed for a great distance can become ‘velocitized.’ You may think you’re moving much slower than you are.” Alertness should be a top priority for every highway user. Adherence to the safe speed limit can minimize your chances of being involved in a single as well as a multi-vehicle collision,” concluded the safety official.
