1* 30th YEAR, NO. 3 tSPS 455580 8 Pa«e8 THURSDAY, JANUARY 18,1979 Washington, Virginia Phone 975-3349 ir—tr~ Fan^ily Newspaper Founded 1877 Evaluation Policies Adopted The Rappahannock School Board adopted revised teacher evaluation procedures at last week’s meeting that, according to chairman Beverly Massie, include many of the changes uggested by teachers who served on evaluation committees from the elementary and high schools. Initially scheduled for adoption at the December meeting, evaluation procedures were tabled until the January 9 School Board session to give teachers who had served on the committees further opportunity to comment in writing on proposals. However, none of the specific revisions suggested by the teachers were adopted by the Board on Tuesday. Teachers had asked that all employees be notified orally and in writing of findings within two weeks following a formal observation. “I don’t see any reason why not,” commented Board member Arthlinda Quaintance. Board member Alan Stokes responded that the administration felt there would be times when it couldn’t have results of a . formal observation to - teachers within two weeks. Board member Walter Miller Breeds Prize Bull A bull bred by J. Newbill Miller of Ginger Hill Farm at Washington set a new adjusted yearling weight record recently in the Virignia Beef Cattle Improvement Association's 21-year-old Culpeper central bull test. Ginger Hill Band .78, calved December 11, 1977, reached an adjusted 365-day weight of 1,241 pounds with a yearling weight ratio of 121. His average daily gain during the 140-day test was 3.46 pounds with a gain ratio of 118. The bull’s adjusted 205day weaning weight was 676 pounds with a 112 ratio. “In addition to this outstanding performance, the bull was 49.5 inches tall at the hip at 365 days of age, making him a five frame bull," reported A. L. Eller Jr., Virginia Tech Extension specialist in animal science. Ginger Hill Band.78 was sired by Band.234 of Ideal 3191 and is the first calf of an Ankonian Dynamo daughter. The 82 senior bulls tested at the station also set a record average adjusted 365day weight of 1,019 pounds. Ginger Hill Band.78 will be sold at the Culpeper auction on Saturday, January 20, along with 27 other Angus bulls, 23 Polled Herefbrds, one Hereford and six Simmentals. The sale of the tested senior Dulls will begin at 12 noon. For additional information on the sale, contact the sale manager, Virginia Angus Association, 909 Landonia Circle, Charlottesville 22901 or the Virginia Beef Cattle Improvement Association, Virginia Tech, Agnew Hall, Blacksburg 24061. Fire Association Meeting The Rappahannock County Volunteer Fire and Rescue Association will have its regular monthly meeting at Castleton on Friday, January 19 at 7:30 p.m. Gary Rosson, E.M.S. coordinator, Mike Hunter, State Communications Specialist and BUI Gouldthorpe of Madison Rescue Squad will be present to discuss coming state communications grants. Masterson suggested that the policy manual stipulate two weeks unless the administration finds that “extenuating circumstances” require more time. “If there’s some reason or another why the administration can’t get to it, we don’t want to nail them down,” he added. Superintendent William Bloomer countered that the administration would have flexibility “to meet the needs as they existed rather than meeting deadlines” if no time period was set. "It would give us more latitude to look at each individual case...to gather more data to substantiate our findings if (Continued on Page 3) New Deputy Assumes Duties Stephen Crossman of Amissville has assumed duties as a deputy with the Rappahannock County Sheriffs Department as of January 15. He holds the position created by the resignation of R. D. Hawkins. Crossman, 27, is a native of Rapidan in Culpeper County. He has been in the U. S.

V 1 Remedial Help Offered JL ’ Competency Test Failures By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock !N«*w* Staff Writer At the January 9 meeting of the Rappahannock School Board Superintendent William Bloomer announced plans for a remedial program designed to help those students who failed the minimum competencies for graduation test administered in October. The five tenth graders who failed both the reading and mathematics sections and the 20 students who failed one portion of the test ^fcill work with James Futrell, high school guidance counselor, to uncover areas where special help is required, according to Bloomer. Then the reading teachers will offer remedial instruction in reading and the mathematics teachers in math for one afternoon per week through March“Students may also request extra individual assistance from teachers," added Bloomer. He reported that the minimum competency test, mandated by the General Assembly as a graduation requirement beginning in 1981. will be administered again on April 3. Students who pass the test, even as early as the ninth grade, are not retested. Bloomer reported, adding that students who fail could take the examination again and again, right up until graduation. “Well, that doesn't mean much then,” commented Board member Arthlinda Quaintance. “Have you seen a sample of the test? It’s about fifth grade (level),” Board member Walter Masterson responded. Bloomer continued that, students who failed both sections of the competency exam would have to attend remedial classes two afternoons a week. All parents have been notified as to whether their child failed, he said, adding that parents would be responsible for providing transportation home after the special classes. “Exercise In Futility” Masterson criticized the whole concept of giving students remedial help to pass the competency exam. “I’ve seen a sample (of the test). If they can't pass it before graduation, then they’re in awfully bad shape.” By giving extra remedial help, teachers are "going back over things that should have already been gone over.,.1 think it’s an exercise in futility. If they can’t pass that test, they need more than remedial work," Masterson concluded. Bloomer noted that attention to date had focused on only two components— reading and math—of the competency exam. The third component, social studies and citizenship, will have be developed locally, he said. Local school systems must also develop standards to measure job entry skills that all graduates are supposed to have, said Bloomer. He added that the state board of education had not yet reached a decision on the type of diploma to give those (Continued on Page 5) RAPPAHANNOCK FARMERS’ COOPERATIVE has begun renovation and restoration of the former apple co-op and cold storage building on Route 211 which will in time be a retail store and storage facility for the cooperative, a branch of the Culpeper Farmers’ Cooperative. League Suit Dismissed By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Mews Staff Writer The Rappahannock Chapter of the Izaak Walton League’s lawsuit against the county Board of Supervisors was thrown out of court by Circuit Court Judge Carlton Penn on Wednesday, January 10. In filing for a declaratory judgement on November 29, the League sought to overturn recently adopted amendments to the Rappahannock Zoning Ordinance. The amendments, enacted in September, allow “outdoor recreation, including, but not limited to skiing, swimming pools, tennis courts and gravity slides” as a use permitted by right in all areas of the county where slopes are greater than 14 per cent and in all areas zoned general business or commercial. The League chapter, represented by attorney Allen Olson, argued in its suit that the amendments directly conflict with the zoning ordinance's intent to protect steep slopes; that they are vague, indefinite and uncertain—thus void and legally unenforceable. Penn, however, upheld arguments from Commonwealth Attorney George Davis filed in response to the League’s request for a declaratory judgement. Davis maintained that: 1) no actual controversy based upon an ascertion and denial of rights was shown to exist between the Supervisors and the Izaak Walton League chapter, 2) the chapter’s claims regarding the ordinance amendment’s damaging impact on slopes over 14 per cent were based on future or speculative facts, 3) the chapter had no standing before the court to bring action for declaratory judgement. Penn noted that members of the Izaak Walton League could conceivably attack adoption of the amendments on the grounds that they owned land that would be adversely affected. However, he emphasized that the Bill for declaratory judgement before the court did not allege that the suit was brought on behalf of taxpayers or property owners. “The complainant is not a Karen Rypka Reports From Richmond Veteran state government reporter Karen Timmons Rypka has been assigned to cover political and legislative topics in Richmond for The Rappahannock News. Rypka, 28. covered the 1978 General Assembly for the Alexandria Gazette. She worked for the Richmond bureau of United Press International in 1976-77. Rypka is the second fulltime staffer to cover Richmond for The Rappahannock News and other newspapers in the Arundel Newspaper Group. Jim Pope, managing editor of The Loudoun TimesMirror, covered the 1978 General Assembly. Rypka is a former resident of Leesburg where she worked for the Metro Virginia News from 1972-74. She has been involved in newspaper work since 1976 when she was a cub reporter in her home town of Upper Arlington, Ohio. She is the wife of Don Rypka, staff photographer of the Richmond TimesDispatch, who is also a former staff member of The Fauquier Democrat and Metro Virginia News. taxpayer, not a property owner,” Penn stated. The Izaak Walton League’s suit was filed November 29, 1978—just two days after the Rappahannock chapter was organized. Commonwealth attorney Davis argued that the League was operating “under the veil of being a non-profit organization” and noted that the chapter’s only act to date had been to file the lawsuit against the county. No Controversy The Rappahannock Ski Corporation — the onlybusiness that has indicated it will use the new ordinance (Continued on Page 3) —Rappahannock News Photo/D. Hiiirhin.««>n ATTORNEY DOUGLAS BAUMGARDNER has announced his candidacy for the office of Commonwealth’s Attorney for Rappahannock County subject to the general election this November. Baumgardner has his legal offices in the old theatre building in Washington. Ba umga rdner Announces Candidacy On Friday, January 12, Washington lawyer Douglas Baumgardner announced his intention to run for the office of Commonwealth's Attorney for Rappahannock County in the November, 1979 elections. Baumgardner noted that he’d left the law firm of Lea, Davies, Crigler and Barrell, effective January 1, 1979, and would continue with a general practice from his office in the old theater building in Washington. "Although it is my understanding that our incumbent Commonwealth's Attorney, Mr. George Davis, is not seeking re-election, it is my expectation that 1 will have opposition,” said Baumgardner. “I would encourage other potential candidates to announce their intentions at the earliest opportunity so that the people of this county will have ample time to assess the qualifications of all can didates. Baumgardner noted that an early announcement of his candidacy was imperative if he was to effectively represent his views on the issues to county voters. Baumgardner graduated from Virginia Military Institute with a degree in economics in 1973 and earned a law degree from the University of Virginia in 1976. While a graduate student, he was director of Virginia Legal Legislative Service and legislative assistant to D. French Slaughter, member of the House of Delegates from Rappahannock's district. Since 1976, Baumgardner has practiced law in Rappahannock, Culpeper and Madison Counties. He is married to the former Margaret Averill DeJarnette of Culpeper. Active in county affairs, Baumgardner is chairman of the Rappahannock County Recreation Association, president of the Rappahannock Javcees and a member of the Rappahannock Lions Club. Trinity Episcopal Church and the advisory committee for the Valley of Virginia Consortium for Higher Education. Originally from Southwestern Virginia. Baumgardner’s family has lived in the county for approximately 20 years. His father, Fanning Baumgardner. is a surveyor and county engineer and his mother teaches at Rappahannock elementary school. In his announcement as a candidate, Baumgardner maintained that, ‘‘as a native Virginian with strong ties to Rappahannock." he was qualified for Commonwealth’s Attorney by virtue of his background, (Continued on Page 3) $6 Million Rate Increase Requested Potomac Edison sent out notices to its customers this week that the utility has filed an application with the State Corporation Commission, requesting a S6.222,761 permanent increase in its rates and charges for electrical service to be effective for service rendered on and after March 1, 1979.

Bloomer agreed that teachers should be notified as soon as possible of any deficiencies uncovered during observations and acknowledged that teachers wanted early notification on their evaluation results “so they can correct the situation.” However, he restated his opposition to including a time period in the procedure and the Board’s consensus was to leave the section as written.

That’s a legal requirement,” noted Bloomer. He said that all employees will be required to fill out a formal evaluation form every year and that the administration would thoroughly evaluate continuing contract teachers once over a three year period. “But all teachers will be observed at least once a year,” interjected Mrs. Massie. We 11 give new teachers and probationary teachers top priority and then proceed with (observations on) all other teachers,” Bloomer answered. He added that formal conferences may not be necessary after all observations if the teacher and the evaluator agree on conclusions. Each time a teacher is observed—whether it’s one, two or 20 times—the evaluator fills out a form, a copy of which is supplied to the teacher so he or she can ‘‘examine the evidence,” Bloomer said. If the teacher objects to the evaluator’s conclusions, he continued, then a formal conference is scheduled. He added that there was space on the evaluation forms for a tpacher to disagree with the conclusions drawn from the observation. Again following Bloomer’s advice, the School Board members made no changes in the policy handbook that would require continuing contract teachers to be evaluated every year. They also declined to stipulate that all teachers will be observed during the first semester. (The handbook’s section on evaluation policies currently states that teachers “may be” observed in the first semester.) Bloomer said that the number of new and probationary teachers would have a definite impact on how many observations could be done in the first semester on continuing contract personnel. He noted that “the time factor may prohibit” observations on all continuing contract teachers early in the year. The School Board also agreed to stick with the current wording in the policy manual that calls for teachers to “know the home environment” of pupils rather than change the wording to “attempt to know” as requested by the teachers. In addition, they denied the teacher’s request to insert “reasonable” in the section that states teachers will accept additional tasks willingly. Teachers had also asked that the “code of professional ethics” that which they are supposed to adhere to be included in the polity manual. Mrs. Massie directed Bloomer to include the professional code adopted by the state educational association and the state department of education in • Repairs on Most Foreign ana American Cars 30 Ashby St., Warrantor!, Vs. 347-3785 the handbook’s section on teacher evaluation as soon as he secures a copy.

Robinson Cited For Conservatism Seventh District Congresman J. Kenneth Robinson was among Members of the House of Representatives ranking highest during 1978 in support of the conservative coalition of Republicans and southern Democrats allied in the Congress against the positions of northern Democrats, according to Congressional Quarterly. The Washington-based publication reported that Robinson scored 95 per cent among Republicans in voting for the position of the .conservative GOP-southem Democrat alliance in the House, based oh 164 votes. His score in support of conservative coalition positions for the entire 95th Congress (1977-1978) was % per cent, based on 320 votes.

Should there be such a motion, Penn said he would strike the bill as being prepared contrary to the ruling of the court. Following the Izaak Walton League’s attempt to have the ordinance amendments overturned, the Ski Corporation filed a petition to intervene in the litigation on December 18. In the petition, Ski Corporation attorney Douglas Baumgardner asked the court to declare that the Ski Corporation had "a vested right to use its property for an Alpine slide, a ski area and other appropriate, commercial-recreational uses.” Baumgardner also requested a ruling on the validity of the ordinance amendments as ^hey applied to commercial, B-2, districts. Last Wednesday, Penn failed to act on any of the questions raised by the Ski Corporation in its intervention petition. Baumgardner explained that the judge’s dismissal of the League’s suit made it unnecessary to reach a decision on the issues of vested rights or the validity of the disputed amendments. Revisions Considered The amendments opposed by the Izaak Walton League chapter are currently being reconsidered by the Planning Commission at the request of the county Supervisors. The Planners indicated at a special meeting in December that they will recommend the amendments be revised to require a public hearing and a special use permit for commercial outdoor recreation proposals on conservation zoned land with slopes over 14 per cent.

League attorney Allen Olson reported on Tuesday that he planned to meet with members of the Rappahannock chapter in the coming week. “We’re going/ to sit down and look at the situation and decide whether we want to pursue any of the issues further,” Olson said “For now, I’ve been directed to do nothing.” He explained that Judge Penn, in granting the county’s motion to strike, had made the Ski Corporation's motion to intervene a moot issue. Olson interpreted Penn's oral opinion to hold that the Ski Corporation could pursue the issues raised in its motion to intervene if the Corporation changed its status to plaintiff against the Supervisors.

Therefore, your old mortgage was. undoubtedly, paid in full with part of your proceeds from the sale. Paying off a mortgage in advance of its original loan length is known in the trade as "prepayment”. Many lenders today require a prepayment penalty if a mortgage is paid off prior to its original due date, and you’ll find this can amount to several hundred dollars. If you paid this penalty, don’t forget that the Internal Revenue Service treats the prepayment penalty the same as in terest - which can be a valuable deduction from your income tax.

In Rappahannock, the deer kill was almost double the previous year. And hand in hand with the increase in game harvest has come an increase in the number of roadside “hunters” who shoot from their cars and pick-ups onto »osted property in flagrant violation of (lie law. County Game Warden Jim Bankston reported last week that every day luring hunting season he passed 10 to 15 vehicles crusing the back roads at five or six miles per hour. It’s safe to assume that these “sportsmen” were looking for deer, primarily on land where no hunting is allowed. What can Bankston do under laws •urrently in force in Rappahannock? Nothing—unless the hunters are dumb enough to fire their guns with the Game W arden watching. And he has to see them actually shoot. It won’t do just to catch the offenders with dead deer. Here’s an illustration of the difficulties Bankston has to contend with: Towards the end of the season, Elizabeth Scherschell of Flint Hill was approached by two individuals who asked for permission to hunt on her posted property. Mrs. Scherschell said no. The two men then told her that she’d better do something about the fellows who’d just shot and killed a deer on that same posted land. She called Bankston. He drove out and caught “sportsmen” from Stanley dragging a doe and a buck back to the road. 1 hough he d surprised them almost in the act. Bankston could only charge the men with trespass violations and confiscate the deer. Not much of a deterent to keep those two and others like them from trying a similar expedition next hunting season. But there are steps that the county can take to help Bankston control the onslaught of roadside “slob hunters” who hit Rappahannock and neighboring counties, particularly after the season closes on the other side of the Blue Ridge two weeks earlier than it ends here. Culpeper, Fauquier and Loudoun Counties have all passed hunter control ordinances that make it illegal to carry a loaded rifle or shotgun in a motor vehicle or while walking on a public road unless the hunter has written permission to hunt on both sides. The same ordinances were considered in Rappahannock last year and the year before but the Supervisors failed to adopt them, primarily on the grounds that the laws were unenforceable. How is it that hunter control laws are unenforceable here when this has not proved to be the case anywhere else? In Culpeper, Game Warden Lee Haupt reported that he’d written approximately 40 citations under the same ordinances proposed for Rappahannock and failed to get a conviction only once in the three years that the laws have been in effect. Gordon Wilkes, Fauquier County’s Game Warden, acknowledged that he’d written only three or four tickets this season. However, he noted that he operated this year under Fauquier’s old law that included slightly different wording than Culpeper’s. The Fauquier ordinance made it illegal to attempt to hunt” from a vehicle or public road. “I had to prove that they were hunting beyond a shadow of a doubt,” he said. Even with that handicap, Wilkes had a 100 percent conviction rate this year on citations. Next year, he’ll work under the same laws that apply in Culpeper and he expects better results. Wilkes, who is Game Commission sergeant for the area that includes Loudoun County, reported that the conviction .rate under Loudoun’s hunter control ordinances was also running at 100 percent. It s not unenforceable. It’s definitely a good ordinance,” he stated. Wilkes maintained that the problem with roadside hunters shooting from their cars is going to get worse if something isn’t done to control the violations. “Before, we had to see them shoot. Now, we have something to work with. . . A Game Warden can’t work unless he has the tools to do the job. 4,1 Hunters pay our salaries. We’re not after the hunters who hunt right. Were after the outlaw hunters, the ten percent who disregard the law,” Wilkes said. Isn’t it about time that our Supervisors gave Jim Bankston weapons to combat those same outlaws in Rappahannock? Both Haupt and Wilkes noted that the incidence of roadside hunting had declined since adoption of the hunter control ordinances in their counties. It’s not the answer to the whole problem—Rappahannock will still have slob hunters—but at least it’s a step in the right direction. Bill Would Put Lid On Taxes B> K AREN TIMMONS RYPKA \run«l«'l NvuspapiTH. Rirhmnmi Bureau RICHMOND—A bipartisan pair of state legislators has unveiled a proposed amendment to the Virginia Constitution which they hope will put a permanent lid on government spending in the Commonwealth. Senator Elliot S. Schewel (D-Lynchburg) and Del. Vance Wilkins (R-Amherst) said Jan. 8 they will introduce identical resolutions for the so-called fair tax amendment as their fellow legislators began deliberations in the 1979 General Assembly. The proposed amendment would set a ceiling on state taxes at six per cent of the gross personal income in Virginia. “When our forefathers gave the government the power to tax. they did not put a limit on it,” Wilkins told a Richmond news conference. “There should be a limit on how much the government can take.” Schewel said the proposal would leave the state tax bite at about the current level. He said a look at state spending figures over the past several years shows the need for imposing restrictions on the government’s taxation powers. In 1960, Schewel said* Virginia taxes amounted to onIyT6 per cent of the gross personal income and by 1977 the tax rate had risen to 5.8 per cent. The Lynchburg Senator said Virginia remains a relatively low tax state compared to the rest of the nation and that the resolution proposed by Wilkins and himself “in no way implies any criticism of our fiscal management in Virginia.” Schewel called the measure insurance against future expansion in Virginia spending and an effort to set an example for the Federal Government. “Our ultimate goal is to get to the federal government,” Schewel said. “That is reallv where the culprit lies.” * Schewel said the only similarity between his proposal and California’s celebrated Proposition 13, which deals with property taxes, is that both serve to notify federal legislators of “tremendous grassroots support” for limitations on government spendings. The pair said they expect strong support for their resolution in the General Assembly except from legislators representing more urban areas, particularly Northern Virginia. “Some urban legislators view this as a possible threat to increase state funding that they were hoping to get.” He said, however, that although the proposal would limit total state expenditures in the future it also contains a provision prohibiting a reduction in the appropriated share of state funds currently being distributed to counties, cities and towns. Because the two are seeking a change in Virginia’s constitution the proposal must be approved by the General Assembly in both 1979 and 1980, and then by a statewide referendum.

Letters To The Editor Free Tax Help Offered Free Assistance in preparing Federal an<L£tate income tax returns is” now available to area taxpayers at Lord Fairfax Community College in Middletown. Through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program (VITA), sponsored in cooperation with the Internal Revenue Service, elderly individuals and others with relatively simple tax status can obtain help with basic forms. VITA assistance will be offered at Lord Fairfax on January 27, February 3, March 3, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Volunteer assistors are Tax and Accounting students who can assist taxpayers in completion of Forms 1040A and simple 1040’s, according to Professor Gary Tusing, VITA coordinator. Professor Tusing also noted that taxpayers needing VITA help should bring along their tax packages mailed to them by the IRS as well as W-2 forms, interest statements, a copy of their 1977 return if available, and all other pertinent tax documents.

Rappahannock County High School Varsity Basketball Coach Dear Anonymous Fan: I am the wife of the basketball coach at Rappahannock County High School and I have a few things to ask you: 1) Does it not matter the many, many, long, hard hours my husband has given the basketball program at RCHS? 2) Does it not matter how he has worked in cooperation with the parents to get the beautiful name plagues in the gym ana a Most Valuable Player trophy for the school? 3) Does it not matter that last year he purchased four trophies to give his players at a special team dinner? 4) Does it not matter that each year he takes his team to a basketball game at James Madison University and attends summer camp with them? 5) Does it not matter that he is deeply liked and has an excellent rapport with both his players and students? 6) Does it not matter that our home and hearts are always open to any student at RCHS who has a problem or just needs to talk? 7) Does it not matter that last year the varsity team won more games than the last 3 years combined? Apparently not to you and I pray not to the majority of the people of the community as you suggested in your letter. It seems that the only thing that matters to you is how many wins and losses there are and the season isn’t even half over. I know that people in the big cities have become cold and impersonal nowadays and it truly saddens me to see it existing in Rappahannock County. WANDA MOFFETT Why Bobcats ?

My two sons, age 5 and 9, asked independently, “why was the bobcat shot; was it attacking people?” When answering them that, no, the bobcat wasn’t attacking anyone, they both asked, “Then why was it shot?” BRUCE JONES Editor’s note: Hunting is a legal sport ■%t5d * ‘hiintin^ bobcats generally takes a skilled hunter to bag this quarry, according to a game official. There is an official hunting season for bobcats in the state. Hunting also helps nature to regulate the animal population whether it be deer, bear or whatever. A close account of animal kill is kept so that none will become an endangered species. There are not many bobcats killed in this area, so apparently hunters are proud of their accomplishments and wish their achievement known. I believe that in the 22 years I have been with this newspaper I have taken pictures of three of these animals.—S.L. Step Towards Peace To the editor: I take strong exception to last week’s letter to the editor, that recognizing the existence of China, a country of nearly a billion people, is detrimental to the best interests of the United States. Those kind of red-scare stories, reminiscent of the McCarthy era, should not continue to damage world peace and U.S. national interests as they have in the past. Number one fallacy is the notion that Chiang Kaishek’s Nationalist forces alone fought off 3 or 4 million Japanese troops that could have been used in the Pacific against us. While Chiang’s troops did indeed engage the Japanese forces at times, he was more interested in annihilating the Chinese Communists, while the Japanese were repeatedly appeased to the detriment of China’s own national interests. In fact, Chiang’s government lost most of it’s troops in a July, 1937 clash with the Japanese in North China. From 1938 on, the Chiang government’s efforts against the Japanese didn’t amount to much, on the assumption that the U.S. forces would ultimately take care of China’s Japanese problem. The writer makes no mention of the Communist’s role in routing the Japanese. It might be of interest to some, that Chiang’s main source of military aid before the American entrance in the Pacific war was the Soviet Union. But the German invasion of Russia forced them to use all available resources to protect their own country. As for the notion that the 17 million people on Taiwan are “freedom-loving”, it is hard to tell since they have had only two rulers in the past thirty years. They are, of course, Chiang and his handpicked successor—hi? son, who still rules toifay. No doubt, when the' Communists came to power, many were dealt with quite harshly. But much of the killings were to eradicate Chiang's long-ingrained system of black markets, political payoffs, and favoritism. The corruption was on a scale, the likes of which the world has never seen. The bottom line of this corrupt rule was starvation for millions, and terrible living conditions for those that survived. Since Chiang’s departure from the mainland, the population has nearly doubled. But the redistribution of wealth, not a “green revolution” has resulted in the feeding of all of it’s citizens. The timing of the recognition was not “calculated to stifle any opposition from the American people or Congress”, but more likely concerns the SALT talks with the Soviet Union. The idea being, the more fearful the Soviets are of a ChineseAmerican alliance, the more likely they will be to want an agreement limiting arms. In summary, I’d say that the vital interests of the United States will be best served if we would view things as they truly are, and not what we would like them to be. Carter’s action will enable both the Chinese and the Americans to better understand each other’s motives. In the future, when a major world crisis erupts, and everyone has their fingers on the nuclear button, jgmore accurate perceptions of one another can go a long way toward averting a catastrophic nuclear Any questions may be showdown. And that, I- directed to the Office of believe, should be in the best Business Technology, 869interests of everyone. 1120. ROBERT LEGGE Box 214 Etlan, Virginia 22719 Assembly Would Send Money Back Home By KAREN TIMMONS RYPKA Arundel Newspapers, Richmond Bureau RICHMOND—The biggest message being placed before the General Assembly by Northern Virginia legislators during this election year is a plea for more money for the folks back home. Faced with the decision of where to spend a $47.2 million budget surplus, many area representatives are clamoring for the majority of that sum to go back to hard pressed localities. That view goes beyond the syggfstiogs presented by Gov. John N. Dalton in his stafe-of-tliestate address at the start of the session. Dalton recommended that $12 million go toward the “housekeeping needs’’ of state agencies, $12.2 million on construction and renovation of state property and $16.2 million be returned to the governments of counties, cities and towns. The governor left $7 million for the legislators to spend as they see fit. ihe windfall to localities would come under a system of distributing state liquor sales profits which was set up by legislation approved in 1974, but which has never before been funded. Under the system Rappahannock would win $15,531 in ABC profits and $2,057 from the wine tax. Reception of the proposed one-time windfall, especially among urban Democrats, has been lukewarm at best, with some legislators feeling Northern Virginia was shortchanged throughout the administration’s budget revisions. Del. David Brickley (DPrince William) said the proposed local slice of the surplus pie is “acceptable”, but added “I personally support sending a larger share of the surplus back to the localities. “I would really like to see it divided,” Brickley said, “half of it going to the state and half of it going back to the localities.” While Democrats railed against the Republican governor’s budget proposals, many Republicans predictably lauded them as suitable within the monetary limitations. “They all seemed reasonable, said Del. Raymond Guest (R-Front Royal). Guest said he was particularly pleased with the governor’s proposed $4 million allocation for construction and upgrading of facilities within the corrections systems. Another Republican, Sen. Nathan Miller of Harrisonburg, expressed concern that localities need a larger share of the surplus but urged caution in dispensing the funds too generously. Miller said economists are predicting further declines in the naition’s economy which could affect revenues taken in by the state. “It would be bad in my estimation to return that money to the localities then have to turn around later and take it back in the form of taxation," Miller said. Miller said the Dalton administration is working toward cutting the costs of localities by reducing the number of General Assembly mandates that place a financial burden on municipalities. He said he is sponsoring legislation for the governor which would freeze state mandated pupil-teacher ratio at 26 to one, instead of going forward with a program which would have required localities to reduce the ratio to 22 to one by 1983. But other legislators argued that the governor showed a disregard for the problems of localities, particularly those in urban Northern Virginia, when he indicated he would veto any move for a local option sales tax. Sen. William Truban (RFauquier) agreed that localities are hard pressed for funds, but argued that most or all of the $47.2 million surplus should be held as a contingency fund for emergency use by the state. Truban said the state spends an average of $500,000 per half hour or $12 million over every 24-hour period. “At 412 million a day, if you sneeze you’re in trouble,’’ he said. If the governor’s proposal for distributing $16.2 million to localities is approved by the General Assembly, the town of Washington will receive $585 in October.

Crash Fatalities Down Motor vehicle crashes on Virginia highways resulted in $8 fewer fatalities in 1978 than in 1977, including 22 fewer pedestrian deaths. Preliminary statistics released by the Department of State Police indicate that 1077 fatalities have been recorded through December 31 as compared to 1145 in 1977. The 1978 total will likely rise when figures become complete. A contributing factor to the 1978 reduction could include a possible carry-over effect during January and February from Governor Godwin’s Highway Crash Alert in late 1977. The Department recorded 60 highway deaths in January of 1978 and 1977, representing the lowest tallies for that month since 1964. In February of 1978, only 40 deaths were recorded and this was the lowest February figure since 1961.

According to Tuchyner, there is a tremendous need for suitable living quarters in Rappahannock and throughout the Planning District. The lack of housing has often lead to tragic situations like the following account. Mary X is 60 years old and lives on the Geriatric Ward in a state mental institution. Mary X is not emotionally ill nor does she need unusual medical attention. Her doctors do not believe she should be in any kind of hospital, but there she sits, week after week, month after month, perhaps even year after year.

Mrs. Massie noted that all course work must be completed before graduation in addition to passing the competency test. “It will be an embarrassing situation if students pass their course work but fail minimum competencies,” Bloomer remarked. The test, he said, is considered to be at ninth grade level by some authorities on education According to Mrs. Massie, the minimum competency exam grew out of public pressure arising from concerns that the schools were not doing a proper job of educating students. She added that she didn’t think the test would achieve results because “the minimum competencies are too minimum.” ‘ Half in jest—or at least with a wide smile—Bloomer suggested that the School Board members take the competency exam when it is administered on April 3.

Three years ago Mary's husband of 30 years died of a heart attack. There were no children or family to give her emotional support and help her readjust to life. Consequently, Mary went into a severe depression and needed to be hospitalized. After 6 months of treatment, she was ready to leave, but had no family or friends to take her in. Mary receives social security checks and could pay her way but she is not in the community and cannot look for a home. It would also be a mistake for her to try to live completely alone at first. Mary needs a room to rent. Perhaps, a boarding home situation, where she could have the companionship of others, or a room with a foster family could allow her to return to normal life. The community is sadly lacking in these kinds of facilities, so unless someone comes forward and says “I am willing to consider working out an arrangement,” Mary is likely to stay where she is. Mary is a hypothetical case but represents a stark reality. People like Mary really exist. The Mental Health Center is attempting to solve these kinds of problems but needs support from civic minded individuals; not to give charity, but to be willing to rent to people like Mary and to put in a personal touch. Group homes, foster homes, and boarding homes run by flexible, interested persons could mean the difference between institutionalization and staying in the community.

Litter Receptacles Required By State Six months from now state regulations will take effect requiring local governments and private business firms to place trash containers at designated locations. The Virginia Division of Litter Control says copies of the new litter receptacle regulations have already been distributed “to all county, city and town governments, business and trade associations and others across the state...” Division deputy commissioner John Jackson said the regulations were mandated in the Virginia Litter Control Act adopted by the General Assembly. Before their adoption, there were no statewide requirements, standards nor procedures for providing the public with litter receptacles. The ' regulations are described as guidelines, and Jackson said they “allow flexibility so that many of the important decisions concerning enforcement, receptacle makeup, placement and maintenance may be made at the local level.” Effective next July 1, the regulations required that “any person owning or operating any establishment or public place...shall at his own expense be responsible for the procuring, placing and maintenance of receptacles." Placement of the receptacles will be required along public highways, in parks, campground and trailer parks, at drive-in, quick service and fast food restaurants and at self-service refreshment areas. They will also be required at construction sites, gasoline stations, shopping centers, parking lots, on sidewalks in business districts, at schools and other public buildings and at sporting events, fairgrounds, carnivals, circuses, and festivals. The penalty for failure to place the receptacles will be $15 for each day of violation. On public highways outside city and town limits, a receptacle must be placed at each turnout, overlook or rest stop. One receptacle must be placed in trailer parks and in recreational facilities in every area at which food or drink is sold. A receptacle must be placed “along pedestrian travel routes” in shopping centers and parking lots. One is required on each service island of a gasoline station. At public buildings, one must be placed “at or reasonably near the main or most frequently used entrance.” The placement ot receptacles on sidewalks in a business district “shall be determined by the local governmental authority." The receptacles shall be of “not less than a 10-gallon capacity,’’...“reasonably stationary,” be covered and “maintained sufficiently to present an appearance which is esthetically pleasing." The color should be “readily visible.” AUMC Services The topic of the sermon for Sunday’s 11 a.m. service at the Amissville United Methodist Church is “The Mystery of Unanswered Prayer.” Sunday School is at 10 a.m. and Bible Study is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. at the church. +*4—i—h Honesty is the first chapter of the book of wisdom.

A puzzling contradiction of sorts to Virginia’s improved driving record is the startling number of fatalities over major holiday periods. In 1978, 109 persons were killed during the holiday periods of Memorial Day, July 4, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years compared to 67 in 1977. ASCS News By THOMAS G. TAYLOR There are many Rappahannock County sheep producers who should file an application for payment under the Wool Incentive Payment Program. Receipts are needed ’ for shorn wool and unshorn lambs that are sold in 1978. These receipts should be brought to the Rappahannock County ASCS Office immediately following the completion of all 1978 sales. The support price for the 1978 Wool Program is $1.08 per pound for shorn wool. Currently, shorn wool is averaging 75 to 80 cents per pound. The final date for application is January 31, 1979. The support price for 1979 shorn wool is $1.15 a pound. This price is a seven-cent increase from 1978. As in the past, shorn wool payments will be based on a percentage of each producer's returns from sales. The percentage will be that required to raise the national average price received by all producers for shorn wool in 1979 up to the support price of $1.15 per pound. Wool Incentive Payments are disbursed because wool is recognized as a very necessary commodity which is not produced in a sufficient quantity in the United States. Therefore, this payment is disbursed to encourage the production of high quality wool. Remember the final date to file application for payment under the Wool Incentive Program is January 31, 1979. Also, bring your receipts for shorn wool and unshorn lambs sold in 1978 to the Rappahannock County ASCS Office. Remember, the support price for the 1978 Wool Program is $1.08 per pound, and shorn wool is averaging 75 to 80 cents per pound. DMV Issues Non-driving ID Last year the Division of Motor Vehicles issued 26,000 photo identification cards for Virginians who do not drive, bringing the total issued in the past five and a half years to 85,432. The cards, first issued in July 1973, are available only, to Virginia residents who do not have a driver's license. They include the owner’s name and address, date of birth, sex, signature and color photo. Enclosed in a plastic case, the cards cost $5 and are valid for five years. Individuals seeking the photo IDs may get applications at any DMV branch office or license examining station. They should have with them proof of identity and date of birth. DMV will accept as proof a birth certificate, school records, parents’ affidavit, baptismal certificate, military records or other similar documents. New W-2 Forms Employers should remember that there’s a new way to report employees’ wages for social security purposes, Bruce A. Hundley, social security manager in Culpeper, said today. There’s also something new to read those reports—a machine called an optical scanner that translates the reports to the magnetic tape language that a computer can understand. Hundley said the Social Security Administration is concerned because some early reports are being received in a format the optical scanner can’t read—and that means more expensive manual processing. Beginning with 1978 wages, employers are to use Form W-2 (Wage and Tax Statement) to report their workers’ earnings, Hundley said. Form W-2 has been revised for 1978 so that it can be read by the scanner. The Form W-2's are printed three to a page, and Copy A of the form is to be submitted to social security in just that way—three to a page. Some employers are going to the trouble of cutting the forms apart, which means they cannot be processed by the optical scanner, Hundley said. Other employers are sending in the Form 941’s that were used previously for earnings reports. And some are using older Form W-2's. Those forms cannot be processed by machine either, Hundley said. Employers should use only the 1978 Form W-2, he emphasized. And the entire page must be sent in even if one or two of the forms are blank, he added. The changeover is part of the switch to annual reporting of employees' earnings, Hundley explained. Reports were submitted quarterly in previous years. All Forms W-2 should be submitted with Form W-3 (Transmittal of Income and Tax Statements). The forms are available from local Internal Revenue Service offices or from private printers. The deadline for submitting the forms is February 28, 1979. Detailed instructions for completing the forms art. given in the December 1977 Circular E (Supplement), Employer’s Tax Guide. Employers who don’t have a copy of Circular E can get one from the nearest Internal Revenue office, Hundley said.

Smeal. But since it is one of the plants that people most often attempt to rebloom, Smeal offers the following advice. After the bracts (the colored structure often called flowers) and leaves have fallen off, start drying the plant. Store dried-off plants in a cool (50 degrees Fahrenheit) dry, light place until May. water lightly, just enough to keep the root and stems from drying out excessively. In May, prune the stems to about six inches, start watering, fertilize and place outdoors in June. Keep the tips pinched off until early September. Then, bring into the house, place in a sunny window and keep watered and fertilized. A poinsettia responds to day length and is known as a short-day plant; be sure it gets no light from sundown to sun up. Even very short periods of light at night may be enough to prevent or interfere with flowering. If the plant is to be grown in a room that is lighted nightly, cover it at dusk with a heavy paper bag, a piece of opaque black cloth, or other light-tight cover, or put it in a dark closet. Remove covering from the plant or the plant from the closet at about 8 a.m. The poinsettia requires 14 hours of complete darkness from Oct. 10 until color shows, usually around Thanksgiving. ©bituaroa West Graveside services for Mrs. Miriam Williamson West. 77, of Charlottesville were held Jan. 11 in Woodville Cemetery conducted by the Rev.

The committee has killed a proposal by Del. Floyd C. Bagley, (DPrince William) which would have allowed motorcyclists to ride bare headed while requiring that motor bikes be equipped with one helmet per passenger. Bagley, who has been trying to do away with the current helmet requirement for several years, was backed by several motorcycling groups in arguing that the mandatory helmet wearing law is an abridgement of the rights of motorcyclists. “I don’t think it’s right to tell anyone you have to wear that helmet,” Bagley said. The committee killed Bagley’s proposal after state Highway Safety chief John B. Hanna argued “there is very definitely a reduction in the death rate” of traffic accidents involving motorcyclists when the rider is wearing a helmet. • * • * THE LONG legislative battle over questions surrounding land annexation suits across Virginia moved closer to a compromise as groups representing counties and cities announced they had reached a common ground on the issue. The Virginia Municipal League and the Virginia Association of Counties, which have traditionally been at opposite sides of legislative proposals to cure annexation problems, announced they have reached agreement that cities which would be prohibited from annexing adjacent lands under proposed legislation should receive special compensatory funds from the state. The two groups set $41 million as the first-year cost of state payments to the cities. The lobbying strength of the two groups has been a major stumbling block in reaching a legislated solution to annexation problems for the past several years and the accord is expected to pave the way for compromise legislation as the General Assembly tackles the issue again this year. DEL. KENNETH PLUM (DReston) has proposed legislation which would increase the minimum financial responsibility of parents for acts of vandalism by their children from $200 to $2,000. Plum said the bill may have some preventative effect in making parents more aware of the whereabouts and actions of their children. m m m m SUPPORTERS of the Equal Rights Amendment to the U.S. Constitution have taken up a daily vigil on the sidewalks surrounding the State Capitol in an attempt to urge legislators to ratify the women’s rights amendment this year. The so-called silent vigil, which so far has attracted about a dozen picketers daily, is scheduled for each day the legislature is in session. Opponents to the amendment have planned a rally on the Capitol grounds for 11 a.m. Tuesday, January 23. Snow Removal Priorities Roads With High Traffic Volume Cleared First Have you ever wondered how the use of snowplows is scheduled in winter storms? The State Department of Highways and Transportation has a priority schedule for snow and ice removal which can be summed up briefly: roads and streets carrying the highest volume of traffic are the ones that will get the first attention. To accomplish this, all routes in the state are assigned to one of the following priorities: + PRIORITY ONE: This includes all interstate routes, primary and arterial network roads with high traffic volumes and a few very high service secondary routes. Roads in priority one receive first consideration in the event of snowfall or icing conditions. The objective is to keep these routes free of ice or snow so that traffic can continue safely without the use of chains, except during period of extremely heavy snowfall or drifting. Then it becomes a battle to the finish between man and the elements. Man always wins; it just takes a little longer. C. O. Leigh, state maintenance engineer for the department, said that if low temperatures prevent or greatly retard the melting action of chemicals (which happened in the state several times last winter), top priority routes will be covered with abrasives so that traffic can proceed at reduced speeds in safety without the use of chains. “This will never be considered a substitute for our goal in this priority, which is to achieve bare pavement, roads completely free of snow and ice,” Leigh said. +PRIORITY TWO: These routes include medium service primary and some high service secondary roads. Roads assigned this priority will receive second consideration for snow removal and ice control. On these roads, snow and ice will be removed where possible or covered with abrasives to make travel with chains unnecessary as soon as possible (after top priority roads are cleared), but within 24 hours after the storm has stopped. + PRIORITY THREE: Normally, this includes low service primary and high service secondary routes, including secondary feeder and urban secondary subdivision routes. These routes will be plowed or scraped as soon as possible after higher priority Real Estate Offerings HORSE or CATTLE FARM 45.9 acres, beautiful view, 2 pond sites, gently rolling land, modest 6-room house with bath, barn, several outbuildings.

These roads receive last consideration and will be made passable with the use of chains as soon as possible, but within 48 hours. Snow fighters- of the Department of Highways and Transportation do not plow privately-owned driveways. But they do offer a wise suggestion to those who do: plow or shovel your driveway to the right, starting at the end of the driveway nearest your house.This way, it’s less likely your driveway will be blocked by plows clearing your road or street. Bill Would Punish Juveniles As Adults For Adult Crimes Attorney General Marshall Coleman has proposed a four point legislative program that calls for “adult punishment for adult crime” committed by juveniles and that reduces the restrictions on trying juveniles as adults. Coleman revealed the four proposals, which will be introduced in the 1979 Session of the General Assembly as part of the Attorney General’s anticrime package. Coleman said the proposals are designed to make juvenile laws “less lenient, based on the proven theory that a tougher policy toward juvenile violence reduces crime. “The juvenile court system was not established to shield real criminals from the threat of punishment. It was designed to rehabilitate the youthful offender. A youngster who repeatedly commits serious crimes is using the system and making a mockery of our best intentions,” Coleman said. The major points of the program are: —Required Adult Trial: Under the first proposal a 16 or 17-year old charged with rape, armed robbery, sodomy by force or murder, would automatically be tried as an adult. The current law provides that judges have discretion to try such an offender in the juvenile system or as an adult. "These subjective judgments,” Coleman said, “result in unjustifiable disparity of treatment, and inequities which appear contrary to the rule of law.” —Repeat Offenders: The second proposal provides that youthful repeat offenders of felonious offenses should, in most cases, be tried as adults. Although this proposal allows the judge to determine in each case whether the offender will be tried as an adult, it assumes that a typical repeat offender has not been helped by the juvenile justice system in the past. —Minimum Age: Tpe third proposal provides that the minimum age at which a youth can be tried as an adult for the commission of any felony be lowered from 15 to 14 years of age, the minimum age used in most states. Coleman noted that 14 is the common law age of accountability, and until 1973 this was the law in Virginia. —Future Offenses: The fourth proposal requires a youth of 16 or 17, who has previously been tried as an adult for the crimes of rape, murder, robbery or sodomy by force, to be treated as an adult for any future misdemeanor or felony charges. “Youthful offenders account for a substantial number of crimes committed,” Coleman said. “Youths under 18 commit about one third of the burglaries in Virginia, one sixth of the robberies and one tenth of the rapes and serious assaults. Many of these youngsters are repeat offenders who use the juvenile justice system, confident that they will be granted the protections offered by it. 4—I—I—b Some people bnce believed that mountains were formed by an enormous underground serpent moving about.

Coop Plans Consolidation The Board of Directors for Northern Piedmont Electric Cooperative (NPEC), headquartered at Culpeper, has recommended that the Cooperative consolidate with Virginia Electric Cooperative, based at Bowling Green. A study began in 1973, reviewed and concluded in 1978, demonstrates that uniting the two organizations will result in substantial savings and improved service benefits to customers, according to a NPEC release. Action by both Boards must be approved by a majority vote of the membership at annual meetings this August. Legal clearance must also be obtained from the State Corporation Commission, Rural Electrification Administration and National Rural Utilities Cooperative Finance Corporation. If the necessary approvals are gained, it is anticipated that the new cooperative could become a reality by January 1980. Preliminary plans call for administrative headquarters to be located in the Fredericksburg areas, with the present office headquarters at Culpeper and Bowling Green to serve as district service centers. NPEC serves Rappahannock customers in the Castleton-Amissville area.
