Still Burns - ■ ■ V V vuui lift] UVbll steadily smoldering on Old Rag since October 24 flared up again on the mountain’s northwest slope late Tuesday afternoon. Bill Loftis, Assistant Superintendent for Shenandoah National Park, had just received the fire report when contacted at approximately 3 p.m. on Tuesday, November 7. "We’re noPsure yet if it jumped the fire line or what,” said Loftis. “Would you believe it (the fresh outbreak of fire) is on the roughest spot on that mountain?” According to Loftis, park personnel have been stationed at the fire site on Old Rag 24 hours a day since October 25. The fire was first reported in the early afternoon on October 24. Park Rangers were sent to the location around 3 p.m., put the fire out and then left, according to Chief Ranger Larry Hakel. Park authorities believe that an arsonist was responsible for a second fire outbreak late that same night. Since the second outbreak, ranger crews have concentrated on keeping fire contained within the existing fire line. Their efforts have been hampered by lack of .rain and the inaccessibility of {'the location on Old Rag. '' According to Assistant Superintendent Loftis, only 300 acres (with a one per cent mortality rate on trees) have UCCII UUU1CU (I) Ul UUS Tuesday, even though the fire has been smoldering for two weeks. The fire is now feeding primarily on dead leaves blown by changing winds, said Loftis, adding that the same areas have been burned and rebumed several times. Loftis acknowledged that water could be brought to the site by helicopter or plane but maintained that this approach would not be “cost beneficial” unless the fire began to do much more damage. “We’d work that poor little helicopter to death,” he said. Loftis stated that he’d received reports that rain was moving through the park and expressed hope that precipitation would reach the fire sight. Chief Ranger Hakel said last week that he expected the fire to continue burning until rain fell in the area. As of 3 p.m. on Tuesday, November 7, the park had detailed 30 men to fight the fire with seven more due to report at 5 p.m. Loftis said he didn’t expect success in the investigation of suspected arson. “We don’t have much to go on...We don’t have enough evidence to really pinpoint anything," he concluded. ++++ In an updated report on the Old Rag fire, Shenandoah National Park Superintendent Robert (Continued on Page 3) Bypass Is “Ultimate Solution” "If the congestion (at the intersection in front of the Corner Store in Sperryville) is to be eliminated...the ultimate solution would be the relocation of Route 522." That was the opinion from District Traffic Engineer Jon C. DuFresne in a letter written to Col. E. P. Luke, Chairman of the Rappahannock Supervisors. Luke reported on his correspondence with DuFresne at the November 2 Board meeting, explaining that he'd contacted Highway Department personnel following an accident at the intersection on October 13 that left one fatality. He said he’d inspected the location with assistant resident engineer James Fitzgerald and traffic engineer D. F. Coates to determine what could be done “to make that comer a safer place.” Luke reported that the Highway Department had agreed to post a notice of the intersection, cut overhanging vegetation and move the white stop bar painted on the highway further out into the intersection so drivers will be better able to see the road in both directions. (The letter from DuFresne was not read at the Supervisor's meeting. It also stated that the need for adjustment to the stop bar was the result of a seven-foot privacy fence erected on private property belonging to P. E. Steve DeMent. According to DuFresne, lights, signing and pavement markings at the intersection are adequate. He attributed the October 13 fatal accident (Continued on Page 2) Rappahannock Lions Honored The Rappahannock Lions Club was one of several Northern Virginia clubs to receive the prestigious "State Achievement Award" at the District 24-A Fall Conference, November 4, in Fredericksburg. The award, for overall administrative excellence during the f977-78 fiscal year, was presented by former Lions District governor Ken Hitch. Phil Butten, former Rappahannock club president, and Bob Ingle, Secretary, accepted the award. A “State Achievement Award” patch, symbolizing the distinction, will be sewn onto the Rappahannock club banner. The Rappahannock Lions club also won patches recognizing its contributions to. the Old Dominion eye Bank and the Lions of Virginia Foundation, during the past year. The Eye Bank docs research into and facilitates corneal transplants from eye donors to persons needing sight. The Lions of Virginia Foundation was recommended for its prompt and generous support of money, clothing, and building materials sent to flood victims in Southwest Virginia . and for other humanitarian relief activities throughout the state. The Rappahannock club has a long record of support to both organizations. A memorial service honored all former Lions of Northern Virginia who had died during the year, including Oliver Carver, who passed away this summer. The Fal^ Conference was attended by representatives of the 77 Lions clubs comprising District 24-A, Governor Bill Smith presiding. In addition to Butten and Ingle, the Rappahannock delegation Included President Howdy Holschuh and First Vice President John Schultz. —Rappahannock New* Photo/Daphne Hutchinaon JOHN WARNER, the apparent winner in Tuesday’s Senate election, stopped off at the court house in Washington on Friday during a final campaign swing through the Virginia Piedmont. About 100 county residents turned out to shake hands and drink cider with the Republican candidate. However, despite Warner’s last minute attention, Democrat Andrew Miller carried Rappahannock in Tuesday’s election with approximately 57 percent of the vote. Washington Dumpsters To Return By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock New* Staff Writer “Either we use public land (for dumpster sites) or we don't use any land. It's come down to that," announced Supervisor Chairman E. P. Luke at last Thursday's Board meeting. Luke and Hampton District Supervisor Clarence Baldwin appeared to have found a solution to the county's continuing trash problem—at least for the town of Washington. Luke reported that he and Baldwin had located a spot for dumpsters across the bridge from the old mill on old Route 211 on Highway Department property. ‘‘I don't know how many complaints we’re going to get.” he added. As the county locates additional spots for dumpsters on Highway Department rights-of-way, Luke predicted that the Supervisors would be faced with a public outcry. “The bitchin’ and hollerin' that's going to go on is going to be tremendous," he said, asking for assistance from the rest of the Board members in responding to the complaints. “H.B., you look like a prime candidate," Luke remarked to Supervisor H. B. Wood. Wood replied that the only problems his district had with trash disposal were the result of people from other areas of the county bringing garbage to the Scrabble dumpsters. “When the static and hollerin’ starts, we’re ALL going to have to take the heat.’’ Luke countered. “We'll have to spread it around evenly." Either dumpsters will be placed on Highway Department rightsof-way or they won’t be put anywhere, he maintained. "Time’s running out. We’re going to have to do something.” The Board authorized Luke to hire a contractor to clear and gravel the new Washington dumpster site. Baldwin interjected that he wanted 24 hours notice before the work was actually done, apparently to prepare for the anticipated public response. Supervisor Butch Eastham told the Board that he’d recently noticed fenced dumpsters (along Route 522 in Warren County). “They looked pretty good,” he added. Commonwealth Attorney George Davis replied that that tactic had been tried at the former Sperryville dumpster site with no success. "People just threw it over the fence. Trash was piled up on the ground as high as the dumpsters," Davis recalled. Ambsvllle, Huntly and F.T. Luke later reported that new dumpster sites were needed in Amissville, Huntly and the F.T. Valley area. Formerly, the F.T. Valley was served by trash containers located at the H and J Grocery on Route 231. However, said Luke, the property owners requested that the dumpster be moved after citizens repeatedly left piles of trash on the ground. He added that more space, in addition to the new site on old Route 211, was needed in Hampton District. Luke said that he has already found several locations—all on Highway Department rights-of-way. “We have problems because some of these locations are grown up with bushes and trees,” he added. Luke said he would meet with the Supervisor of each (Continued on Page 8) ^ o \ Warner Apparent Winner, Vote i Recoimt Probable Republican John Warner appears to have edged out Democrat Andrew Miller in the race for Virginia’s U. S. Senate seat. Unofficial returns show Warner with 611,725 votes, or 50.13 per cent, and Miller with 608,457, or 49.87 per cent. With only one-third of one per cent of the 1.2 million votes cast separating the two defeated his Democratic challenger Lewis Fickett in Rappahannock as he did* throughout the 7th District. In his bid for a fifth term in the U. S. House of Representatives, Robinson ended up with approximately b4 per cent of the vote in the District. However, Fickett did better in Rappahannock County precincts preporting, the total was 576,511 against parimutuel and 502,135 in favor. Locally, “yes” votes on parimutuel totaled 841 and “no” votes totaled 725. Voters in both Chester Gap and Washington sent the referendum down to defeat in their precincts. Liquor by the drink won in Rappahannock, with 856 unopposed for clerk of the circuit court in Rappahannock won with 1,447 votes. Dot Irvine, secretary to the county’s Commonwealth Attorney, was a write-in candidate with 32 votes, most cast in her home precinct of Spetryville. Two voters wrote in Jack DeBergh, county probation officer and one joker in Woodville cast his or Miller, Robinson, Mixed Drinks, Parimutuel Win In County candidates. Miller will probably request a recount. “As Woodville goes, so goes the state” is an adage that voters in that Rappahannock precinct are fond of repeating. It looks like they went with the w'inner in Tuesday's election. Unofficial county returns show Warner winning in Woodville while Miller carried the rest of Rappahannock. Countywide. unofficial totals give Miller 904 votes or 57 per cent, and Warner 678 for 43 per cent. Incumbent Congressman J. Kenneth Robinson easily than he fared elsewhere in the area. Robinson tallied 909 votes in the county compared to Fickett's 642 for approximately 59 per cent. In comparison, the incumbent Republican pulled in about 71 per cent in Culpeper and 70 per cent in Madison. Chester Gap was the only local precinct that went for Fickett. voting 72 to 46 in favor of the Democratic challenger. While parimutuel betting won in Rappahannock, it went down to defeat statewide. With approximately 98 of Virginia's “yes” votes for the referendum on mixed alcoholic beverage sales and 708 “no" votes. Approximately 54 per cent of county voters approved allowing restaurants that meet ABC Board regulations to serve mixed drinks. The Constitutional amendment to give localities the option of taxing renovated property at a lower rate passed in Rappahannock as it did throughout most of the state. Locally, there were 936 votes for adoption of the amendment and 527 against. Diane Bruce, running her ballot for “J. Grumpy." Also running unopposed, Robert Anderson and Herbert S. Barksdale were reelected as Soil and Water Conservation Directors with 839 and 835 votes respectively. Chester Fannon, Charlie Compton and Sam Snead each received one write-in vote for county director. Three voters wrote in names in the Senate race. Someone in Amissville prefers John Warner’s glamorous wife and voted for Elizabeth Taylor Warner. A Washington voter wrote in Bernie Dahlgren and a Woodville voter cast a ballot for Henry Howell. Supervisors Support Park Boundary Freeze By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Kapnahannork Vt**. Staff \l rit#*r The Rappahannock Supervisors agreed at their November 2 Board meeting to write a letter of support to Congressman J. Kenneth Robinson, backing his bill to freeze Shenandoah National Park boundaries at the current 194,(XX) acres. Chairman E. P. Luke reported that legislation passed in 1926 authorized a Park area of 521,000 acres with boundaries stretching down to Route 231 in the F. T. Valley and encompassing the community of Syria. At his suggestion, the Board authorized supporting the maintenance of “existing boundaries.” Robinson introduced House of Representatives’ Bill 14225 on October 4, 1978—too late for action in the recently adjourned session. According to the Congressman, he will reintroduce his bill in the next session that convenes in January, 1979. The bill “to establish the authorized area of Shenandoah National Park” reads: Be it enacted by the Senate and House o f Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled. That the authorized area of Shenandoah National Park in Virginia shall consist only of those lands, comprising approximately one hundred and ninety-four thousand acres, to which title is vested in the United States in fee simple as of the date of enactment o f this Act. and so much of the Act of May 22. 192b as is inconsistent herewith is repealed. No reference in any report, or boundary' outlined on any map. prepared under authority of the Secretary of the Interior, indicating an authorized, prospective, or recommended area for this park of approximately five hundred and twenty-one thousand acres. apacres. proximately three hundred and twenty-seven thousand acres, or any approximate figure other than as set forth in section I hereof, shall have any force or effect, except as may be provided by an Act of Congress subsequent hereto. Robinson Reports According to a letter from Robinson to the Rappahannock News, his bill would prevent exchanges of Park land for private property without a specific act of Congress, as well as prohibiting purchase or condemnation of private land for inclusion in the park. Shenandoah Superintendent Robert Jacobsen maintained in a recent telephone interview that the Congressman’s bill would also prevent the park from accepting donated property. The bill, said Jacobsen, "would be injurious from the standpoint of blocking the park from accepting land" giving as a donation.

A S500 reward was paid to the individual who aided the Cooks in locating their daughter.

Rappahannock Fox Meets Georgia Hounds By MARY JAMIESON Rappahannock New* Special Writer On the morning of November 2, “Jim Bill” Fletcher, MFH of the Rappahannock Hunt, invited Benjamin H. Hardaway, Master of the Midland, Georgia Hunt, to bring his famous pack of “deerproof ’ foxhounds to try their luck at running our Rappahannock foxes. The day was still, dry and most unlikely to produce sport. The meet was called at the beautiful old 18thCentury house, Montpelier, in the Francis Thornton valley along Route 231. At 8 a m. Ben Hardaway carried his hounds out in front of a big field of 60 riding hunters and some 20 knowledgeable foot hunters who had come from all over six counties to watch for the vaunted nose and drive of the Georgia hounds. Scout Roundtable Scout Troop 123 from Washington will host a Cub and Scout Leaders’ roundtable discussion at Trinity Episcopal Church on Thursday, November 9, at 730 p.m. Shenrapawa Chapter of the Order of the Arrow will meet at the roundtable. r For VA tedious hours, casual but constant work on the part of the Georgia pack produced nothing but the pop and crackle of scurrying hounds through crisp, footdeep leaves on wooded mountain sides and trails of dust in the wake of the horses on bone dry pastures. It was disappointing but understandable, given the parched terrain. As a last resort, Mr. Hardaway cast his hounds into one of William Lanes’ 50-acre stands of corn. Hunters waited at the edge, hearing nothing but scattered rustlings when, of a sudden, a Fine high-voiced hound gave tongue. This piercing note, like a powerful magnet, pulled eager hounds from surrounding hills and pastures, plummeting in to honor the finder. For 10 minutes a growing chorus moved around in the cornfield. When it reached a fine crescendo, out burst a big sleek red fox. Tallyhoes went up from sharp-eyed hunters. The Chase The fox sprinted over the pasture down into a thick hedgerow along a branch and made it up a steep open hill on the other side. All 20 1 <\appaliaiimu*k ^Vuu?

No horse could follow, but Master Huntsman Ben Hardaway jumped off his horse and scrambled on foot through that mess to urge and cheer his hounds. The field galloped hard, lead by Master Jim Bill Fletcher, over a hilly circuitous route to join the action. For a good 40 minutes we followed at full speed, seeing remarkable hound work. We even witnessed at one “bother,” a deer leap out ahead of the Georgia pack while they hued to their line and swung lefthanded after their fox. Finally the fox ran across Route 231 to the secure hills of the Park. When hounds were called in, Ben Hardaway stood in their midst, congratulating and accounting for each by name. —Rappahannock New* Photo/Daphne Hutchinson BENJAMIN H.

In another matter covered in DuFreshne's letter, Luke reported that the Highway Department had given the Rappahannock School Board 30 days to repair the blinking school zone caution lights in front of the high school. If not repaired within that time, the Highway Department will remove the blinkers at the School Board's expense. The lights haven’t functined for approximately two years. Luke also reported that the "no passing” zone in front of the high school had been extended after the traffic engineer had checked the site. Noting that the village of Woodville had a dangerous intersection also, Supervisor H. B. Wood said he wished he’d known that the traffic engineer was in the county. According to Wood, hazardous traffic conditions in Woodville are primarily the result of motorists’ failure to abide by the 45 mile per hour speed limit there. "How are you going to stop them from going too fast?” he asked. “We do need more police patrolling here—by the state or someone,” Luke responded. Commonwealth Attorney George Davis countered that no traffic control could have prevented the recent Sperryville accident. Luke agreed with Davis but also noted that speed limits in the town of Culpeper were obeyed as a direct result of strict enforcement practices.

Shipley painted “a very dim picture of an interior fire escape” from the upstairs courtroom, describing an indoor escape as “a very marginal thing.” In response to the Supervisors’ fears that an outdoor escape would spoil the looks of the historic court house, Shipley suggested that the Board consult Charlottesville architects who have designed an outdoor stair for Shenandoah Academy, another historic building. “It keeps coming back to an exterior escape.” said Baumgardner, noting that a progress report on plans and design had to be submitted by November 28. He explained that, even if approved, an indoor fire excape from the second floor would have to exit directly into the downstairs hall, not into an office with a door that could be found closed and locked in case of fire. In addition, if the indoor escape was located in a jury room at the front of the upstairs courtroom, the doors to the jury room would also have to be removed, according to Baumgardner. He told the Supervisors that an outside exit had to be located in the front part of the building, cutting through one of the first two windows or through a door between the windows. Baumgardner suggested that he be authorized to get pictures of the specially designed outdoor escape at Shenandoah Academy if the Board agreed to approve an outdoor exit. "1 don't think we have any alternative,” Supervisor Butch Eastham responded. Senior ID Cards Available Senior citizens 60 years of age and over who live in Culpeper, Rappahannock, Fauquier, Orange, or Madison county can obtain a senior discount card which provides a discount on goods or services when the card is presented to a participating merchant. A $1.00 contribution is requested to cover the cost of the photo I.D. card. Proof of age is required. Senior citizens may obtain a card at any of the following locations: Thursday. Nov. 16—Orange Presbyterian Church, 162 West Main Street, Orange. VA, 10 a.m.2 p.m. Friday, Nov. 17—Madison County Rescue Squad Building. Madison, VA, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 21—Trinity Episcopal Church, Washington. VA, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 28—Lord Culpeper Building, 401 South Main Street, Culpeper, VA, 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 29—Warren Green Building, 10 Hotel Street, Warrenton, VA, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. “Shipley said this building is a horrible example. It could really be a trap,” Baumgardner reported. Commonwealth Attorney George Davis asked if it would be possible—and cheaper—to change the location of the furnace that currently sits directly under the only exit from the upstairs court room. “We’d still have to have another exit,” Baumgardner answered. Moving the furnace wouldn’t change the state requirement for a second exit, he said, adding that the present furnace site “just accents the seriousness” of the Fire Code violation. The Board agreed that Baumgardner should check the academy at New Market and report back on the design used there for an outside fire escape. An estimate of SI,152 from Madison contractor Omar Stoltzfus for repairs to windows, porches and gutters at the jail was approved by the Board. A second project, the new incinerator for the court house complex, was authorized for bids after the Supervisors rejected an estimate of $826 from Lantz Construction as too high. Notihg that the steel door, grating, cover plates and fire brick from the old incinerator could be used, Luke said he thought the estimate for the job should have been lower. In approving the project to go out for bids, the Supervisors stipulated that the exterior wall of the incinerator be built of brick that matches the court house and clerk’s office and that the incinerator conform to standards set in the state code. Luke added that he’d checked with the local Air Pollution Board and received an okay for the county to install an incinerator. In other action, the Supervisors approved: — rezoning from agriculture and conservation to residential subdivision for seven large lots on Ian Pryde’s Blue Rock Farm subdivision. —creation of the Rappahannock County Recreational Facilities Authority, naming Doug Baumgardher, Jean Lillard, Granville Eastham, Mary Schumaker, Ed Bailey, Ed Manookian and Diane Bruce to the Authority Board. —payment of $495 (of which $195 is reimbursable) for rental of a trailer to serve as the polling site in Woodville. —reappointment of Mrs. Aline Johnson of Sperryville to a four year term on the Welfare Board. —contracting for maintenance work on the county's copying machine at $250 per year. Old Rag Burning (Continued from Page 1) Jacobsen said Wednesday morning that 100 additional acres on the north flank of the mountain had burned during the night, bringing the total of acreage damaged in the two-week-old fire to 400. Jacobsen reported that the Park Service planned to bring in a helicopter on Wednesday “as an experiment to see if it's effective for water drops” on hot spots and on the more inaccessible rocky peaks. He added that changing winds would make it difficult for the helicopter to maneuver and noted that water drops would be totally ineffective if done from too high an altitude, causing the water to turn into mist before it hits the fire area. Jacobsen doesn’t expect the helicopter experiment to prove successful in putting out the fire. “Without question, it will continue to burn until we get some significant rainfall,'1 he said, adding that neither national nor park weather forecasts called for precipitation anytime in "the near future." Noting that fire conditions The Flint Hill Fire Unit responded to a brush fire on the Brew Wood property this week. They were called to a roadside fire on Route 522 this week. On Monday evening they assisted the Washington Fire Unit in Gid Brown Hollow. Rescue Calls %I\cal g 'Estate *Jl. Qmy. V AL.ATION HOUSE & TAX DEFERMENT Among the benefits of being a homeowner are the unique tax advantages available. One of them to be wary of is the provision which allows you to defer paying income tax on any profit made from the sale of your home if you buy a more expensive one within a certain amount of time. It does not apply in all cases. For example, if you sell a vacation home at a 12,000 profit and promptly buy a much more expensive place, can you defer paying the income tax on the profit? The answer Is no! This tax break is available only when both i the house sold and the house purchased serve as your principle residence. A vacation house doesn't qualify. However, if you owned the dwelling for more than the required time to allow the profit to be taxed as long term capital gains (6 months in 1966, 9 months in 1977 and one year after that), the S2.000 profit would only be taxed at half the normal rate.

We’re here to help. m the park haven’t been this bad in years,” Jacobsen described the Old Rag fire as ‘‘a terrible nuisance...a terrible waste of money and manpower." He emphasized that damage resulting from the fire “is not all that great. Nor is the danger.” "It's not devastating the park, ' Jacobsen continued. He predicted that by next June it would be difficult to even tell where the fire had burned. According to the Superintendent, crews of 40 fire fighters are working in rotation around the clock to contain the fire with additional persons on stand-by duty. ‘‘It's a question of nursemaiding it” until the rains come, Jacobsen concluded. Boundary May Be ‘Frozen’ (Continued from Page 1) Jacobsen said that he thought it had not been the intent of Congressman Robinson to impede the Park Service. Instead, the 7th District representative introduced his bill “to quiet rumors” circulating in Rockingham and Madison Counties that the park now has the authority to purchase and condemn land, according to Jacobsen. The Superintendent noted that he and his staff had tried repeatedly to convince residents of those counties that Shenandoah Park did not have the authorities attributed to it. Jacobsen described Robinson’s bill as “an attempt to lay to rest incorrect and harmful rumors.” He stressed that the park does not now have the power of emminent domain, which allows park authorities to condemn property. "Legislation specifically prohibits us from using appropriated funds to purchase property,” Jacobsen stated, adding that he was authorized to buy land with “donated funds” only. “If we were to find an angel who'd give us several thousands of dollars, we could probably go out and buy land," he said. Jacobsen noted that there was one exception to the prohibition against using appropriated funds for land purchase. Legislation passed in August, 1946, allows the Park Service to use appropriated funds “in order to perfect title for acquiring water rights,” he said. This authorization permitted the park to buy 200 acres near the visitor center PARK THEATRE I Eva* 7:00 - 9:00Sat /Sun Mat Starting Sun , Nov 12 One show only 7:30 Sun. thru Thurs. eves Fri A Sat - 2 shows Sat & Sun Mat . 2:00 at Dickey Ridge in order to provide the center with a water source, according to Jacobsen. He emphasized that this 1962 transaction was the last and only time that the park had purchased property outright. Jacobsen acknowledged that the park had “a limited amount of pledged funds" —donated money that could legally be used for purchasing. “It’s not enough to acquire any significant amount of land," he added. Trades Already Scrutinized As the result of controversy over the recently aborted land exchange proposal involving park property in Rappahannock and privately owned land in Greene County, land trade procedures followed by park authorities have been modified. Jacobsen reported that the Park Service had reached an agreement with Phillip Burton, chairman of the U.S. House of Representatives Subcommittee on National Parks and Insular Affairs, to bring "any and all land exchanges to his committee for review." Jacobsen said this review procedure applied service wide—not just to Shenandoah National Park—and was agreed upon despite legal opinions that held exchanges involving parks in existence for ten r years or more did not require review by Burton's com mittee. Jacobsen acknowledged that land trades, purchases and even condemnation „ proceedings could be carried out with SPECIFIC Congressional approval even if Robinson's bill should pass during the next session of Congress. The Park Superintendent declined to speculate of the bill's chances of being approved. + + + + Among some primitive tribes, a person who dreamt of falling in the water would send a wizard with a net to fish out his soul the next dav.

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1978 Save A Life On Saturday, November 11, the Rappahannock Unit of the American Cancer Society will sponsor a free skin cancer detection clinic from 9:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. at the elementary school. We urge all Rappahannock residents—men and women, adults, teenagers and children—to take advantage of this serv ice. Skin cancer is the most common of all cancers. It is also the most curable, if detected and treated in time. Over 110,000 people in the United States will develop skin cancer this year and another 3,000 Americans will die of this form of cancer. The tragedy is that many will die needlessly. The symptoms of skin cancer are clearly visible to any reasonably alert physician. If brought to the attention of a doctor early enough, m alien ant cells can be removed before they cause any vital damage. Skin cancers can develop in almost any area of the skins. Exposed parts —face. neck, forearms and backs of the hands are the most common sites. Skin cancer may appear as a dry scaly patch, or a pimple that won't go away. or an inflamed area with a crusting center, or as a pale, waxy, pearly nodule which may eventually ulcerate. Malignant melanoma, a relatively uncommon cancer of the skin, occurs usually as a dark brown or black, small, mole-like growth, which becomes larger and is ulcerated and bleeds. It can begin from a pre-existing mole. In addition, certain abnormal skin conditions which tend to become cancerous have been identified. The most common—senile or actinic keratosis —is a small skin thickening which usually develops on an exposed part of the body and generally occurs in older persons when skin has been exposed to sunlight for many years. Only a physician can determine the nature of an abnormal growth, whether it is benign, precancerous, or cancer. Anyone with a suspicious skin change should visit Saturday’s free clinic and be checked by one of three specialists from the University of Virginia Hospital in Charlottesville who will be on hand. The life you save may be vour own. Planning Goals Proposed By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Vha Staff Writer Chairman E. P. Luke took a first step on Thursday towards directly involving the Rappahannock Supervisors in development of the county’s comprehensive plan. At the November 2 meeting of the Board. Col. Luke handed out copies of a list of general goals and objectives that he'd prepared with assistance from county engineer Fanning Baumgardner. "If you don't like anything that's here, write some down on your own," Luke told the rest of the Bpard, emphasizing that he intended his list to serve as “a starting point...a think piece. "1 have no pride of authorship." the Supervisor Chairman continued. "You can throw it in the trash if you want to." Luke noted that Planning Commission members, currently working on development of a comprehensive plan with helpfrom Planning District 9 staff, had requested the Supervisors to furnish them with goals and objectives. "They'd like opinions from the Board on what we think our goals are." he said. Luke emphasized that he didn't expect the Supervisors to comment at Thursday's meeting on the list he and Baumgardner had prepared. He suggested that the Supervisors take it home, read it and discuss it with friends before commenting on the goals at the December Board meeting. Village Concept Luke listed 14 goals. Only number 14 dealing with the village concept of planned development appeared likely to provoke controversy. He proposed that “major residential developments Workshop On Elderly Parents A workshop on ''Understanding Your Elderly Parent" will be held at the Rappahannock Mental Health Clinic on Monday, November 20, at 7 p.m. Discussion led by Donna Morgan, aging specialist for the Rappahannock-Rapidan Mental Health Center, will focus on the emotional, physical and social changes that accompany aging. Anyone interested is urged to take part in the workshop. Rappahannock Menial Health Clinic offices are located in the newly remodeled Clopton House, adjacent to Trinity Episcopal Church in Washington. snouia oe ot tne tarm or farmette type. Other development should be adjacent to existing towns, villages or areas served by good road nets and-or public facilities. Higher density subdivisions should be of the cluster type and should be located in or adjacent to the cities, towns and larger villages or areas served by public facilities, including sewer and water." Luke further contended that cluster development results in "smaller development costs and smaller maintenance costs. These lesser costs should be reflected in the purchase price of lots. Moreover, additional ‘open space' which results from the use of a cluster plan can be utilized for conservation or agricultural purposes." Other comprehensive planning goals arrived at by Luke and Baumgardner were: 1. promote the attainment of a healthy living environment, 2. promote the advancement of the quality of living conditions by providing employment opportunities in agriculture, recreation and supporting endeavors for all. 3. expand and improve service facilities, 4. promote conservation practices in resource use and maintain the ecological balance, 5. encourage the preservation of historical sites and unique customs and traditions of mountain culture, 6. promote a healthy balance between residential and rural sectors and preserve the integrity of agriculture in the local economy. 7. preserve the county's natural rural beauty by designating conservation areas and limiting other portions to open space uses, 8. support the Virginia State Water Control Board's efforts to keep water courses unpolluted. 9. cooperate with Planning District 9, 10. plan residential areas in conjunction with expected primary traffic flow, 11. designate commercial and industrial uses to avoid heavy traffic congestion, 12. promote the development of neighborhoods complementary to the larger community, 13. promote the retention of attractive existing natural and cultural features. Education Week Celebrated November 13 through 17 is National Education Week. In recognition, the Rappahannock County Education Association (RCEA) has planned a series of special events.

In Case You’d Like To Know On October 27. 1978, the State Board of Education approved a Graduation Competency Testing Program for graduation from high school for the class of 1981 (or this year's Sophomore class) only. These tests are the result of public and political concern over declining scores by high school students, in this state and nationwide. If the program works as expected, passing the tests will probably be a permanent graduation requirement. Currently, tests cover reading and math. In the future, testing will include citizenship and vocational skills. These tests were administered to all 10th graders at Rappahannock County High School on Tuesday, October 31, by the Guidance Department with the cooperation of the faculty members. By KELLY GILKEY <S BOBETTE SWINDLER The SCA homeroom representatives have been chosen at R.C.H.S.

They are president Sharon Settle, vice-president Liz Freeman, treasurer Paula Butler and Lisa Jones was elected secretary. Dee-Dee Grant is the class photographer. The panthers traveled to William Monroe on Tuesday night. Rappahannock trampled the Dragons with a score of 49-21. Jackie Myers and Rhonda Estes had ten points each. Rhonda Brown and Denise Wingfield tied with six points. Judy Lynn put in five for the Panthers. Sandy Hudson and Linda Finley had four points. Shelly Kidwell had two points and Rhonda Williams and Janice Aylor had one point. The girls played an unyeilding game with 25 steals and 8 turnovers. Good game girls! Junior Varsity played a mean game too, and they ended up with a score of 26lb. Sandy Wines was the high scorer with 11 points. Good game J.V. Last Thursday the girls basketball team played Strasburg at Strasburg. Neither team won, but both were very close, and we know how much effort you put forth. We would like to say thanks to all the support we had at this game, and all the others. Well girls basketball season is over. The girls had a good season, the Junior Varsity team ended up with eight wins, and ten loses, they ended up in fifth place out of the ten places. J.V. you worked hard, and did a good job. Congratulations! The varsity panthers had a good season, ending up with four wins, and fourteen loses. They were in ninth place out of ten places. They missed the playoffs by one game. We know how hard you worked, you did the best you could and that was great. Track members are raising money for completion of the track. There is a fund raiser going on now with first prize, a stereo, second prize is $15.00 and third is a cake. Prizes will be given away December 8, at the boys basketball game against Madison at R.C.H.S. We would really appreciate your support. In the spring, the freshmen (9th graders) will also be tested for minimum competencies. The results of these tests will be used to help design courses of instruction at the high school as well as serving as a graduation requirement. The passing score for the classes of 1981 and 1982 will be 70 per cent on the Reading Test and 70 per cent on the Mathematics Test. Students who achieve a score .of 70 per cent or above on each test will be certified for graduation upon completion of all other high school academic requirements. Students who satisfactorily complete the minimum competency requirements will have no further competency tests. Students scoring below 70 per cent on either test will have an opportunity to take the test again in April of each year until a passing score is achieved. Officials have not yet decided what type of certificate or diploma will be awarded to a student who does not pass minimum competency tests. These Minimum Competency Tests are being used in all other school systems in Virginia and in nt least 16, other states. Remediation will also be offered to those failing the tests. The faculty at Rappahannock County High Letters To The Editor Fire Policy Criticized To the editor: I am afraid that Park Service spokesmen have not told this newspaper, and the public, the entire story about the recent fire on Old Rag Mountain. The fire was first reported early Tuesday afternoon (Oct. 24). The Park apparently did send some sort of crew up to the top of the ridge to look at the problem. But they left about dark—before the fire was all the way out. By 9:15 that night the fire was burning brightly and was easily visible from route 231 near Etlan. A ring of fire several hundred yards in diameter, with the upper edge near the top of the ridge, could be seen for miles. I know because I saw it and reported it to the emergency park telephone number. A pleasant-sounding woman told me they knew the fire was burning, but thanked me for calling. I obviously was not the first to call. “You might call back if it really seems to flare up,” she said. Less than an hour later I called back to tell her that the fire had apparently cut through the big notch in the ridge and was burning on the back (west) side. If one crew had been left with the fire that first night, it never would have spread and hundreds upon hundreds of man-hours would not have been needed to contain it later. SEAN KILPATRICK Woodville, Va.

In these classes, taught by an education department professor from James Madison College, the teachers are learning more about the reading and the mathematics tests their students will be taking. They are also learning to construct and administer sample tests for daily classroom use. Teachers are reviewing materials to better prepare their students for retests in the spring. Rappahannock County Education Association Delegate Beard Reports It has been a busy and interesting time for your Delegate since March 15th and I believe it’s time for me to bring you up to date on “what’s happening.” First of all in way of a few statistics, I have made a total of 59 appearances in the four county area through October 31st, 1978, including work at the General Assembly, 6 in Rappahannock, 18 in Orange, 6 in Madison and 15 in Culpeper. These were speaking engagements at civic clubs, garden clubs. GEORGE BEARD senior citizens, panel groups, women's clubs and church groups. There have been 12 meetings in Richmond on committee and subcommittee work and two meetings at Jamestown. Needless to say, I have learned a great deal of what the good folks in the 25th Legislative District are interested in. According to the schedule ahead there are at least a dozen or more groups to talk to until January 9th, 1979, when the General Assembly reconvenes. Now to “what’s happening”: The Finance Committee always meets on the 3rd Monday in Richmond to go over carried over bills. Some of these bills were not bad enough to kill or good enough to pass, so we have to do something with them before the deadline of January 19th, 1979. The trend so far has been to kill most of them. Of the 27 carried over bills of this particular committee, 10 have been killed, 6 carried over until the next meeting, one dropped and 10 yet to be worked on. One particular bill that was killed was HB No. 941. Delegate Cranwell of Vinton, Virginia was the patron and it had to do with raising taxable income of retirees from $12,000 to $18,000. I was one of only two who voted in favor of this bill. So, the bill was killed. I later found out the State Tax Department objected to this bill because no one knows for sure to what extent the revenue of Virginia will be effected when most of our inheritance taxes will be abolished in 1980. I still felt that Virginia’s economy and continued growth will be enough to offset Cranwell’s bill. So we will have to wait and see. Another bill killed was SB No. 71. Senator Hopkins of Roanoke was the patron and it is part of the Hopkins report to revamp the state agencies. This bill was to change the taxing of public utilities from the SCC to the Department of Taxation. All pros and cons were put forth at this particular meeting. There were a half dozen lobbyists in favor of the change and one or two against. It was a two hour meeting with plenty of maneuvering for the proponents. It was finally killed eight to seven. My reason for voting against it was the same as in the General Assembly. All utilities have their rate changes before the SCC each year and the decision on rate increases by the SCC is based on the cost to operate each utility. One of the expense items is the amount of taxes they pay. The Department of Taxation had indicated they would probably raise the taxes if the transfer to them was made. Who do you think would pay the cost of those raised taxes? You and I, of course, because the utility would simply convince the SCC that their higher taxes were a reason for a rate increase. We do not need any more reasons for raising our utility bills. It is true our counties would have received more revenue had the change been made, but even if the counties had reduced our real estate taxes (which is highly unlikely) the difference would have been more than made up by increases in the various utility bills to the hard pressed consumer. In a couple of weeks I will have information regarding subcommittee work and the outcome of the hearing on November 16th at Leesburg Court House on the Land Use Bill. The Little Fox

COUNTRY +N. ^ JOURNAL By: Nancy b. becrist Extension Agent Strip Wallpaper Before Painting If room redecorating includes changing from wallpaper to paint, it is best to remove the paper first. Painting over wallpaper can loosen it and colors in some papers tend to bleed through. Start the task by spreading drop cloths to protect carpeting. floors and furniture. Use a sturdy ladder or stepstool. Before attempting to remove the paper, it has to be scored. This is done by slitting the paper in a criss cross pattern with a sharp knife. There are three ways to then loosen wallpaper: 1) sponge soak with hot water; 2) sp<?nge soak with a commercial wallpaper removing solution; 3) use a rented steamer. A steamer is particularly helpful if there is more than one layer of wallpaper to remove.

Dumpsters May Return (Continued from Page 1) District to view the dumpster locations that he had in mind. “We’re looking for something that's out of sight and as unobtrusive as possible,” he said, noting that he expected complaints no matter how ideal the spot. “All this concern about anti-inflation — here’s something that the average Rappahannock citizen could do,” Luke stated. “We could save $10,000 a year if people would just put their trash in the dumpsters. And that’s money that comes mainly from property tax dollars," said Luke, referring to the bill paid by the Supervisors each month for refuse picked up off the ground at the dumpster sites. “That money doesn't come from Revenue Sharing or from the state. It comes directly from the county's general fund.” Next to the sun and the moon, Venus is the brightest object in the sky. Baptist Annual Meeting The annual meeting of the Baptist General Association of Virginia will be held in the Roanoke Civic Center Auditorium on Tuesday and Wednesday, November 14 and IS, in Roanoke.

The annual meeting will be attended by 2,000 messengers and visitors from churches all over Virginia. Speakers at the annual meeting include Dr. Morris Ashcraft, Professor of Theology at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kansas City, Rev. Lawrence J. Pace Jr., pastor of Abingdon Baptist Church, Dr. James Baucom, First Vice-President of the Association and pastor of First Baptist Church in Radford, Dr. Porter Routh, Executive SecretaryTreasurer of the Southern Baptist Executive Committee and Dr. John Killinger, Professor of Preaching, Worship and Literature at Vanderbilt University’s Divinity School.

Price Index Increases 1.5 Per Cent The Consumer Price Index in the area rose 1.5 per cent in the two months ending Sept. 30 to 200.8 (1967 prices equal 100). The 1.5 per cent increase was caused primarily by the higher costs of owning and maintaining a home. Costs rose for home financing and purchase, natural gas. furniture and repairs. Prices for food declined 0.3 pier cent. Beef prices were down 5.5 per cent after rising at an average monthly rate of 3.4 per cent during the first seven months of the year.
