V Stems! households 2,101 The County Family Newspaper Founded 1877 .aljwW*'*-" 23219 PAID 30th YEAR, NO. 4 *ISPS 455580 10 Pages THURSDAY, JANUARY 25,1979 Washington. Virginia Phone (>75-3349 Tower Takes A Tumble Power line towers fall “very, very seldom,” construction superintendent Raymond Mims assured the Rappahannock Board of Zoning Appeals last October. Mims appeared before the BZA to request a permit application for office and storage trailers to be located on Amissville Fire Company property during construction of concrete foundations for Vepco’s power line towers. The “very, very seldom" happened last week as a tower built along Route 627 outside Flint Hill came tumbling down. The concrete foundation was still in place but the rivets holding the tower to the base appeared to have worked lose. Linda Welk, a property owner who reported the accident to the Rappahannock News, said that her husband had noticed about a month ago that the tower “wasn’t anchored down.” When speaking before the BZA at its October 12 meeting, Mims explained that the towers weren’t anchored in rock because that procedure requires onthe-job presence of an engineer at all times to check if the rock is solid. According to Mims, this makes rock anchoring both expensive and time consuming. Asked to comment on Tuesday, Vepco personnel at the Warrenton office knew nothing about the topple of the tower. Record Year For Deer Jack W. Raybourne, Chief of the Commission’s Game Division has announced the totals of the recently concluded deer hunting season. Raybourne stated that, “this has been a record harvest with a total of 71,952 deer killed compared to the total for the 1977-78 season, which was 67,059.” Raybourne said also that, “the eastern kill was 51,008 for an increase of 1,911 over last year. The western kill was 20,944 compared to 17,962 for the 1977-78 season." Sixty-eight counties recorded higher numbers of deer harvested, 29 were lower and one county remained the same. The counties recording the highest number of animals harvested were: Southampton 3,093; Buckingham 2,082; Rockingham 2,024; Amelia 2,001; Bath 1,973; Caroline 1,932 and Powhatan with 1,866. Plant A Tree The VPI Extension Office, in cooperation with the 4-H County Council, is currently taking orders for nursery stock pink and white dogwoods as part of the annual ‘‘plant a tree” project. This year, the extension office is also sending out forms on which interested citizens may indicate preferences for other varieties of trees. If orders are received for 25 or more of any one kind, extension agent Nancy Secrist will secure the volume price and advise respondents so they can mail a check to , cover the price of the trees. ^ Orders will be delivered to ( the extension office around j the first of April. “Let us make spring plans ( now to beautify our state, , yv county and our landscape by ' V planting trees,” Ms. Secrist -urged. “If every family, organization and business of j the county would plant just ( one tree, think what it would j mean to the county and state • in which we live." ] For further information on ( the “plant a tree” project, ( contact the VPI extension office in Washington at 675, 3619. .. / —Rappahannock New* Photo/Daphne Hutchinson OOPS!

Ordinance Amendments Informally Approved Second Meeting On Goode Subdivision By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock 'New. Staff Writer At the January 17, commission meeting, the Rappahannock Planners forwarded revisions to the zoning ordinance amendments enacted in September on to the supervisors with an informal recommendation for adoption.. However, they failed to reach a decision on whether C. L. Goode’s Flint Hill subdivision “substantially complies" with provisions of the county’s subdivision ordinance and agreed to schedule a special meeting before the Supervisors’ session on February 1. If the supervisors accept the planning commission's recommendation on the ordinance revisions, they will effectively rescind the portion of the amendments that allows '’ommercial recreational ..s a use permitted by right on slopes over 14 per cent. Revisions approved by the planners coinside closely with :hanges to the ordinance amendments proposed by the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection. In i petition to the Supervisors aresented in December, RLEP maintained that “any mmmercial exploitation of he natural and scenic ^sources of Rappahannock "ounty should not be a ‘Use Permitted by Right’ but ather is a matter of great oncern to the general public ind should be subject to ipproval by county citizens ind their officials.” The revisions., as suggested »y the planners, will have no fleet on the right of the lappahannock Ski Area to tursue commercial recreation levelopment at its comnercially zoned property in farris Hollow. In addition to requiring a lublic hearing and special se permit from l hr Hoard of Zoning Appeals for commercial recreation in conservation districts or on land over 14 per cent slope located in other districts, the revisions recommended by the planners delete: —“recreation” from the formerly titled “conservationrecreation” district, —“to promote profit or non-profit recreational activities” from the conservation district’s statement of purpose. —“find and report” from the BZA’s responsibilities in hearing a special use permit application, stipulating only that the BZA “shall consider" specific criteria. Additional Restriction In addition, the planners recommended that the zoning ordinance's general provisions in article ten restate that regulations in article 3 (conservation district) “shall apply in any other district to lands in excess of 14 per cent slope located therein.” Article seven, B-2 business districts, will stand as amended last September with “recreation, including, but not limited to skiing, swimming pools, tennis courts and gravity slides” listed as a use permitted by right. The planners will hold a public hearing on the revisions at 9 a.m. on Friday, February 9, in the court house and will then vote formally on a recommendation to the Supervisors. Later that same morning at 10 a.m., the Supervisors will, also hold a separate public hearing on the proposed revisions. Goode Subdivision In voting at their January meeting to schedule a public hearing on February 1 for C. L Goode’s Flint Hill sub division, the supervisors requested the planners to determine if the proposed 14 five-acre lot development “substantially” complied with provisions of the Rappahannock subdivision ordinance. Action on the Goode subdivision began almost three years ago. After a public hearing in the summer of 1976. the planners, by majority vote, recommended that the necessary rezoning for Goode’s development from agriculture and conservation to residential subdivision be denied. Following a second public hearing that September, the supervisors also turned down the rezoning in a three-to-two split decision. Subsequently, Goode filed suit under the county’s zoning ordinance. Later, he amended his pleadings to' allege that the county, under the subdivision ordinance, couldn’t deny a development if that development met all the standards set forth in the subdivision ordinance. Commonwealth Attorney George Davis then advised the supervisors and the planners that the county couldn’t defend the subdivision denial under existing state enabling legislation. However, Davis also maintained that -'Goode hadn’t followed proper procedure, specifically by his failure to apply for a public hearing under the subdivision ordinanceSince then, the Goode case has been continued several times and is still before the courts with the latest hearing date'set for March 12. However, in December 1978, the developer finally made the public hearing application that Davis felt was lacking. Davis advised the supervisors that they (Continued on Page 3) Second Social Worker Authorized JAN 25> ms Welfare Administration Estimates Up 20 Percent ^ * i v / By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Nrw* Staff Writer After agonizing for two hours over a 20 per cent increase in the administrative portion of the 1979-80 welfare budget, the Rappahannock Welfare Board authorized a new social worker position requested by social services director Elizabeth Buntin. At Thursday’s January 18 Board meeting, Mrs. Buntin presented estimated administrative costs of $91,841 for the coming year—a jump of $15,536 from the current year. While the major portion of the proposed increase—$10,380—will fund the extra social worker position, a new state mandated salary scale and required merit raises will push the total administrative costs up $4,981. Mrs. Buntin noted that approximately 20 per cent of administration is funded with local revenue. “In this era of Proposition 13 thinking, I hate to present a budget like this but 1 don't have any choice since the state initiated a new salary scale...Local boards have to adopt it,” Mrs. Buntin said. The percentage increases necessary to adjust to the Dedication $@mmonies A ribbon cutting ceremony and dedication of the new clerk’s office building will take place on February 1 between 9:30 and 10 a.m. just prior to the monthly meeting of the Rappahannock supervisors. Judge Rayner V. Snead and architect Avery Faulkner will join the supervisors and clerk Diane Bruce for the ceremonies. “The public is welcomed to come and tour their building anytime that day,” said Ms. Bruce. Story Hour Goes On Neither rain, snow, sleet or hail has interferred with the Rappahannock County Library’s story hour going off as scheduled the last two weekends. However, winter storms have apparently kept youngsters away from the special program. Library personnel emphasized that the story hour will be held as planned on Saturdays between 10:30 and 11:30 a.m. despite Old Man Winter’s antics. While stories are selected for an audience of three to seven-year-olds, everyone is invited to attend. m —Rappahannock New* Photo'S. Lathani A CAMPAIGN EXCELLENCE AWARD was given the Rappahannock Chapter of the American Heart Association for exceeding its goal in the 1978 campaign. Mrs. Mary Quaintance accepts the plaque from Kathy Easton, association field representative. At left is Mrs. Mary R. Miller, co-chairman and Mrs. Nancy Reeve, district captain. revised salary scale range from 6.6 per cent for social worker Ellen Mustoe to 11.9 per cent for food stamp clerk Dorothy Rector. In addition. Mustoe and eligibility workers Juanita Miko and Nancy Reeve are due for scheduled five pier cent merit raises in the coming budget year. Mrs. Buntin reported that the adjusted salary scale had been approved by the state welfare board and now awaits action from the General Assembly to appropriate the necessary funds. Services Neglected “There are a dozen reasons why we should hire another social worker,” said Mrs. Buntin in justifying her request for the additional position. “As you're aware, 1 haven’t been able to get my work done. I'm behind on the board minutes. I'm behind on everything. The worst of it is. adult services are going lacking. You might not see it because no one has complained but the lack is there. “There are five referrals on my desk that haven't been handled—all for adult protective services,” Mrs. Buntin continued acknowledging that this was her area of responsibility. "A slipshod job done with any part of our services hurts our reputation with the community,” she added. In addition, she maintained that the extra social worker was necessary to ensure the welfare department’s line of succession. "We need to be training people to move up. If Ellen {social worker Ellen Mustoe) should leave—and she's thought of it—we have no trained person to take her job. "Also, at some point. I'm going to retire,” Mrs. Biintin announced. (She has been with the Rappahannock Welfare Department since February 1, 1947—32 years.) Without an additional social worker, the county would have no one to provide adult services upon her departure, Mrs. Buntin noted. With another social worker, she said, "the work could go on even if it took several months to find a new superintendent.” Even if the superintendent was hired right away, she added, there was a strong possibility, based on what's happened in neighboring counties, that the individual would not have a background in welfare and so would be ill-equipped to handle adult services. Travel Expenses Down In the administrative budget, only the travel allotment of $1,828 is below the appropriation for the current year. Mrs. Buntin acknowledged that the travel estimate was “a little low" but explained that she'd been "frightened by the increases that I was coming up with in other categories so I kept it as low as possible." She noted that she hadn't allowed anything for an additional social worker's travel and had instead based her estimate on the monthly average for travel expenditures in the current year. "What are the requirements for a social worker trainee?" asked board chairman Dick Latham. "A degree—not necessarily in social work—with no experience." Mrs. Buntin answered. In response to an inquiry from board member Aline Johnson, Miss Mustoe reported that Culpeper's welfare department employed seven people in social work while the Madison County department had three or four social workers. “If (the new position is) approved by this board, does it still have to be approved by the board of supervisors?" asked Mrs. Johnson. “The supervisors are only concerned with the bottom line, the total appropriation." responded Latham, wiho also serves as vice-chairman on the board of supervisors. Mrs. Buntin reported that she had not yet gained approval from the state welfare board for another social worker. She said that the state board felt the countv's approved position of social Ginger Hill Bull Brings Top Price A bull from J. Newbill Miller's Ginger Hill Farm at Washington shared top honors for top price at the performance tested bull sale held last Saturday in Culpeper. Mt. Airy Farms in Upperville paid $3,600 for Ginger Hill Linebacker 28. A breeder from Lawrenceville also had an animal that went for the same figure. The owner of the top performance Angus herd in the country. Martin Jorgensen of Ideal. South Dakota, paid $3,500 for another Miller bull. Ginger Hill Band. 78. The animal set a new adjusted yearling weight record in the Virginia Beet Cattle Improvement Association's central bull test. A third bull front Ginger Hill Farms brought the average sale price. All three of Miller's bulls weighed over 1.100 pounds at 365 days. "Years ago. we had to fight to get bulls in there over 1 .(XX) pounds." said VPI extension agent Rap Owings. "Then we had the 1,100 barrier to break." he added, noting that the bulls sold at the auction broke records for 365 day weight. “It was a real barn burner of a sale." said Miller. He reported that the average sale price of SI.800 was $1,000 over the price brought bv bulls at last year's sale. worker aide provided enough personnel to handle Rappahannock’s case load, based on population. However, she added, that state authorities had agreed to further consider authorization for the additional position. Miss Mustoe interjected that the job of social work aide hadn't been filled "in years." Besides, she said, an aide can’t do counseling and can't advance to till any ol the positions that the current staff may vacate. "She could do typing for us but that's not our need." Miss Mustoe added. In response, the Board agreed that Mrs. Buntin should consult with state personnel to find how to abolish the aide's job. New Food Stamp Regulations "What do you expect wiil happen with the food stamp program?" asked Latham. Mrs. Buntin replied that she couldn't predict what effect new food stamp regulations, in force as of March 1979. would have on the county's caseload. The new regulations should disqualify some clients with higher incomes from receiving food stamps while the elimination of a purchaserequirement will probably encourage others to apply for the program now that they don't have to pay anything for the stamps, she reported. When none of the board members appeared ready to decide on authorization for the social worker position. Mrs. Buntin insisted that the decision couldn't be postponed since she had to have the administrative budget (Continued on Page 3)

Fight Not Over RICHMOND—Del. Earl Bell (D-Loudoun) has lost the first round in his battle against roadside billboards in Virginia, but he says the fight isn't over yet.

He said next year he will be prepared to take on the lobbying strength and may skip the study phase to work directly for a ban.

Willian Truban (R-Shenandoah) says the offyear "short" session of the General Assembly was never meant to deal with any matters other than budget revisions and emergency legislation, but legislators in this off year are still faced with an avalanche of proposals. “We are doing wrong," Truban said. “We're telling people back home to cut down on government and we're down here adding to the fuel." Under the Virginia Constitution, the General Assembly is to meet for 60 TT-TT Within the U.S., carrots are chiefly grown in California, Texas and Arizona. FIRES GROW FASTER THAN TREES.

The 30-day sessions are almost always extended by at least 10 days and with an estimated 2,000 pieces of legislation to consider, legislators this year are expected to extend the session again. "This is a short session and constitutionally we’re not supposed to be introducing these big bills," Truban said. Although miffed by the proliferation of work from his colleagues, Truban said he has introduced two minor pieces of legislation himself at the request of constituents. A bill introduced by Truban would transfer funding of Confederate Cemetery care from the general accounting office to the Historic Landmarks Commission. He has also introduced a resolution for the relief of a constitutent. Another Fauquier representative, Del. Alson Smith (D-Winchester), safys he has held down his own legislative package because of the intended purpose of the short session. “In this off-year, I’ve made every effort to put in just as few bills as I possibly can,” Smith said. Among the handful of proposals submitted by Smith is a bill to allow the director of the Department of Housing and Community Development and a representative of the State Highway and Transportation Commission to serve as ex officio members of the Commission on Outdoor Recreation. Del. Raymond Guest (RFront Royal), who last year led the battle for parimutuel horse racing, has also backed off from major issues this year. Guest has submitted a bill which would designate as a scenic river a 14-mile stretch of the Shenandoah River from the Warren-Clarke County line to a point just below Lockes Landing. The Front Royal delegate has also introduced legislation which would reinstate local transportation safety committees and a bill which would include buffalo under codes governing animal trespassing.

Amendments Approved tiontinuea from Page 1) should hold another public hearing but maintained that no hearing by the planning commission was called for. Data Wasn’t Saved At Wednesday’s regular meeting, the planners were unable to determine if the Goode Subdivision “substantially” complied with the county’s subdivision ordinance. At issue is whether a significant portion of the 14 lots contain land with slope in excess of 14 per cent. Should this be the case, Goode might have to increase his lot size to 25 acres in order to comply with subdivision regulations. Back in 1976, when Goode’s application was first considered, county engineer Fanning Baumgardner computed figures on the amount of land over 14 per cent slope in each lot. However, the data wasn’t saved following the planners’ original vote to deny the subdivision rezoning. At Wednesday’s meeting, the planners agreed to ask Baumgardner to recompute that information and present his findings at a special meeting. The planners also expect to have a report from soil conservationist Bill Adams by that time. Despite repeated statements from Davis at Wednesday’s meeting that the only question before the planners was whether Goode’s development proposals complied with the subdivision ordinance, the planners didn’t appear inclined to send a favorable report to the supervisors. Chairman Barksdale appeared to speak for the majority of the commission members when he stated that approval of the Flint Hill subdivision would “disregard the wishes of the people of the county completely." He asked if it was the position of county government that “we’re going to tuck our tails and we’re going to run” every time a developer threatens to sue. “Let them go and do it. I'm not that kind of man,” Barksdale concluded. (On Tuesday, Barksdale announced that the planners would hold a special meeting on the Goode subdivision on Thursday, January 25, at 7 p.m. in the court house.)

Blankets Give Electric Glow Let it blow, let it snow. I’ve got my electric blanket to get me aglow. That’s the winter theme song adopted by more than 45 million Americans. As energy costs have risen, people have been turning down the thermostats at night and burrowing beneath the coils to save on fuel bills. ‘‘The average cost of operating an electric blanket on setting No. 5 in a room at 68 degrees F. for eight hours is less than half a cent,” said William Neugebauer, an executive with Essex Consumer Products, a manufacturer of the blankets. Huddled in Hides Life has not always been so toasty and cozy under the covers, observes the National Geographic Society. Early man bundled himself in smelly hides and huddled near the campfire to keep warm. Later, primitive fireplaces and scratchy woolen blankets set him itching for something better. In the 16th and 17th centuries it was the warming pan. People put hot coals from the fireplace into a shallow pan which was then slipped into beds to warm them before the household retired for the night. Foot warmers operated on the same principle and were appreciated during long church services in Colonial America on days "so cold that the sacramental bread is frozen pretty hard, and rattles sadly." In some parts of the world, warming devices and blankets were a luxury even in the 18th century. Peasants in some sections of Russia could not even afford candles. They lighted their rooms with long pieces of pinewood, and slept in their clothes either on top of the stove or on shelves above it. Doctors sparked an interest in electric blankets in the United States late in the 19th century. The notion at the time was the more painful the treatment, the better the cure. As one early experimenter put it: “My blanket is very useful for imparting electrical heat and radiation to the human body for the purpose of inducing profuse perspiration and consequently the elimination of waste products therefrom.” Covered With Sheets At first confined to hospitals and tuberculosis sanitariums, electric blankets were mainly made of wool and used by patients who slept on outside porches where there was little protection from the weather. Water repellent sheets often were placed on top of the coverings to keep off rain and drifting snow. It’s not clear how many people survived these treatments. The early devices had no thermostats, only on-off switches. It was up to the user to remain vigilant and monitor blanket temperature. To complicate things further, heating wires were hand sewn into the blankets to prevent the wire from shifting. Stitching tended to loosen, causing occasional short circuits, hot spots, and mad dashes for the nearest water bucket. Modern safety standards and techniques have made today’s blankets safer than ever. Controls on some are so sophisticated that they automatically respond to changing room temperatures to maintain a constant comfort level. —Rappahannock News Photo/S.

Thursday, January 25, 1979 3 Welfare Administration Estimates Up 20 Percent (Continued from Page 1) “locked on” before beginning on next year’s Title XX plan. “If we approve the social worker position and the supervisors cut $10,000 from our budget, would you cut the position?” asked Mrs. Johnson. “I think this Board would have to decide what to do,” Mrs. Buntin answered. She said that there might be some decreases in the assistance portion of the budget—specifically in foster care and general relief—but added that she wasn’t sure yet. “What do you think the chances are of approval from the supervisors?” she asked her board. Approval Unlikely A 20 per cent increase over last year—I don’t think they’ll approve it.” Mrs. Johnson replied. “1 like to think in terms of what good we’re doing, if we’re taking people off assistance and putting them back to work...but participation (in welfare programs) is increasing all the time,” Latham said. Mrs. Johnson countered that the supervisors would look only at “the bottom line...What will you all do?” she asked Latham. “I expect we’ll try to hold it (increases in expenditure) at seven per cent,” Latham acknowledged. Mrs. Johnson agreed. “1 don't have any idea that they'll approve a 20 per cent i increase—unless you think some of these figures can be absorbed in assistances," she added to Mrs. Buntin after a long pause. Mrs. Buntin requested the board members to decide whether to approve the additional social worker “strictly on need. Then if the supervisors don’t appropriate enough funds to cover, we can't have it. “It’s going to be very difficult to replace me unless you take the service's load off this job.” she continued. “It’s frustrating to never get my work done, to have lacks and weaknesses in what I can accomplish." She repeated that she had to have a decision that day so she could have the Title XX plan completed in time for review by regional representatives on January 28. Need Is There "I can see the need but...,” said Mrs. Johnson, her voice trailing off. “You don’t think there's much hope of the county financing it," Mrs. Buntin finished. Mrs. Johnson added that it would be more trouble for Mrs. Buntin, a lot more paper work, if the position was approved and the rest of the budget completed, based on the additional position, only to have the Supervisors deny the necessary funding. “You’d have to do it all over," she told the social services director. After a short silence, board member Carter White moved that the new position be authorized. Mrs. Johnson seconded and, despite misgivings, the request for another social worker was unanimously approved. “Our first responsibility is to the (welfare) board and to the people,” Mrs. Johnson stated. Latham added that it would be money well spent if another social worker could help people on public assistance get back to work and become contributing members of society. “Sometimes the right decision is not the most popular.” concluded White. c*m Estate $«/een REALTOR ON SECOND MORTGAGES When mortgage money is plentiful, lower down payments are common and lending institutions are looking for borrowers for mortgage money. However, the picture changes when money is tight. Often, higher down payments are required. If you do not have the cash to meet the full down payment, second mortgages are also available and nothing to be afraid of. The seller or some other lender may agree to loan you the balance of the down payment in this manner. The second mortgage on the property carries a higher interest rate and a shorter repayment time - usually from three to five years. The reason for this is the higher risk involved because the second mortgage cannot be satisfied in case of default until after the first mortgage is paid off. The second mortgage can be an excellent way to complete the sale of property which would otherwise fall by the wayside.

JANUARY 25,1979 J Need Comes First Need—not cost—should be the paramount concern as county agencies begin work on their budget requests for the coming year. The Rappahannock School Board in particular should pay close attention to the example set by the Welfare Board at last week’s meeting. Chairman Dick Latham, Aline Johnson and Carter W hite bit the proverbial bullet when they voted unanimously to authorize social services director Elizabeth Buntin's request for an additional social worker’s position. “The need is there." said Mrs. Johnson as board members approved the new position. They acted to meet that need despite the price tag that goes along with it—a price tag that will drive up administrative costs for the welfare department by 20 per cent. It was the right decision. It is the Welfare Board’s responsibility to adequately provide social services for Rappahannock residents just as it is the supervisors’ responsibility to balance demands from county departments against the impact of higher taxes on county landowners. In past years. School Board members have tried to formulate a budget that will deliver quality education at the same time that they’ve tried to anticipate the supervisors’ response to requests for additional funds. By attempting to fill both roles, they’ve alienated parents and teachers who feel that the School Board’s primary concern should be to oversee and provide the best possible instructional program for Rappahannock’s children. Let the School Board come up with a budget that answers educational needs in the county. Then, if the Board of Supervisors decides that the needs aren’t pressing enough to justify an added tax burden on county landowners, it can cut the proposed budget. The School Board shouldn’t feel that it has to second guess the supervisors and cut out REASONABLE requests even before the budget reaches the hot seat. And the emphasis is on reasonable. Extra money for a summer school program is reasonable. Given the county’s revenue raising abilities and tax base, teacher salaries at the same level as paid in Arlington County and other more affluent districts are not, however desirable higher salaries might be. As Carter White so aptly put it at last Thursday’s welfare session, the right decision—whether it’s a proposal for another social worker, hospitalization benefits for teachers or additional classroom space in overcrowded school—is not always the popular decision. The School Board isn t in a popularity contest. Let the Board of Supervisors worry about reelection. Delegate Would Waken Assembly To Reality Of Land Use Problem K An K \ I IVI VIOYS H l rKA Arun<i«-I NtwspaiMTv. Richmond Bureau RICHMOND — “What we've got to do is wake the Commonwealth up to the fact that it has a land use problem." With those words, and armed with a sheaf of proposed legislation, Del. Raymond Vickery (DFairfax) set out to show the 1979 General Assembly the light with a program to preserve Virginia’s agricultural land. The effect fell short of jarring the legislative giant wide awake but by last week Vickery had succeeded in opening some eyes on the key House Agriculture Committee. The committee declined to approve Vickery’s proposal to set up a state land preservation foundation to purchase easements on agricultural property but promised support for a legislated study of the concept. Vickery said his bill, which was spawned largely by the disappearance of prime farm land in Loudoun and Fairfax counties in favor of urban development, would require $5 million at the outset. The need for funds created the largest strike against the proposal among members of the committee. Under Vickery's proposal, local jurisdictions would be able to set up advisory boards to designate and rate agricultural lands in their areas. Hard pressed farmers in designated areas would have the option to sell easements of their land to the state preservation foundation. Vickery said the measure would keep good farm land in agricultural use by giving farmers a method of easing their financial burdens other than selling land to developers of residential or commercial enterprises. After a period of 25 years, the farmer would have the option to buy back his land for whatever purpose he desired. Vickery said similar legislation is already in effect in areas of Maryland, New York and Washington. The Tractorcade Worries Dalton RICHMOND—Gov. John N. Dalton says he is concerned about the safety of Virginia motorists who mav become entangled in two huge caravans of farm vehicles expected to travel across the state next week. Dalton told a Capitol news conference Tuesday that State Police are expecting about 1.000 slow moving tractors and support vehicles in each of two "tractorcades" headed toward Washington to dramatize the plight of American farmers. The caravans are being organized by the American Agricultural Movement and are traveling toward Washington from several states. Dalton said one group from the northwest and midwest will be meeting in Memphis, Tenn., and will enter Virginia along Interstate 81 at Bristol. It is expected to travel U.S. 29 to Rt. 50 in Fairfax County and cross into Washington over the Memorial Bridge. A second group is meeting in Atlanta, Dalton said, and will travel to Interstate 95 at Petersburg and continue to Washington. Dalton said the caravans are expected in Virginia on Tuesday and Wednesday. He said they will be traveling at about 15 miles per hour and that each caravan may stretch out over 20 miles. Dalton warned Virginia motorists to be on the lookout for the slow moving vehicles and to listen for broadcast reports of their whereabouts to avoid their routes. He said State Police will be monitoring the movement of the tractorcade and will use citizen band radios to alert drivers. Assembly Data Available From Library Rappahannock County Library now provides a direct line to the Virginia General Assembly through access to a computerized “Bill Status System." The Virginia State Library in Richmond is linked with a computerized system that provides current information about a bill or resolution before the Assembly. By using the “Bill Status System.” the public can quickly obtain such information as a summary of a bill's content, the names of its patrons and any action taken on the bill: amendment, passage, failure, referral, veto. In addition, the system can also provide titles of existing state statutes that would be affected by the proposed bill Or resolution. The system can also list current bills of a similar status, such as all bills vetoed by the Governor or all bills and resolutions passed by both houses. Another feature of the “Bill Status System" is that it can print a daily schedule of upcoming committee meetings and give an up-to-the-minute account of the Assembly’s daily business. Anyone may use this service free of charge by contacting the Rappahannock Library at 6753780 for access to the “Bill Status System.” H—1—I—fWith the proper clothing, a man can stand the extreme cold as low as 50 degrees below zero Fahrenheit.

That’s almost 700 more than we had during the sixty day session last year and we are supposed to get the job done in 32 days. I am afraid some of them may not make it. A bill that I introduced for the folks at Lake of the Woods in Orange County came out of subcommittee today with a minor amendment on a vote of 5 to 0 in favor. It now goes back to the full Committee before coming to the Assembly. When it was first heard by the full Committee, Atwell Somerville came down and testified. He did an excellent job and it was decided to send the bill to a Subcommittee for their scrutiny. Members of the Subcommittee today felt my bill would have very little trouble at the next step. Another bill I introduced which would increase the fine on tacking posters on highway signs and utility poles was defeated. There is already a law against posters on signs and poles but the fine is not as great as I thought it should be. So I batted 500 on those two bills. Others 1 have introduced will be coming up tomorrow and next week so I will report on those in my next report from Richmond. We killed quite a few bills in the Finance Committee on Monday, but Wednesday was a real hang up. All carried over bills have to be dealt with this week and of all things, the Agriculture Committee and the Finance Committee were meeting at the same time. Four of us are on both Committees and they met in different buildings. I have no idea how far we walked going across the street from one committee to the other. A particular bill in the Finance Committee was passed 10 to 8 to require the gas and oil distributors to pay their gasoline tax on June 30th instead of July 5th. This means a one-time windfall to the State of around $17 million. Distributors in Orange and Culpeper serve our independent service stations and they need the cash in their accounts those 5 days as bad as the State even though it’s State money collected. For some unknown reason this has turned out to be a Session to work on the independents. Another bill in the Agriculture Committee would have seriously affected our dairy farmers. It was troubling me. So I told the Patron, who also happens to be on the Finance Committee, that there was a delegation across the street headed by Mr. Lindsay Gordon of Orange, waiting to testify against it. He told me to run across the street and kill the bill as he was not yet ready to leave the Finance Committee. By the time I got there he was right behind me so he killed it himself. Another 500 batting average vote, but it should have been a 1000. Bill Speiden of Orange testified on a resolution and did a commendable job, but the resolution was carried over while I was back voting on another disaster bill in the Finance Committee. What a day Wednesday was. Bound to lose weight. We had a big hassle in the General Assembly over a bill raising the age from 18 to 19 on the purchase of beer. It was sent back to a Committee with an amendment stating eighteen year olds could only buy beer if they drank it in a tavern or lounge. They could not buy it at off-premises establishments. The motivation behind this bill was pressure from Northern Virginia caused by eighteen-year-olds bringing beer to school. 1 am not sure we need this type of law telling our people what to do Ruritans Move Into the New Year While the nation is considering the impact of the recent message on the State of the Union, perhaps more specific interest to the communities of Rappahannock County may lie in the account of missions accomplished, and 1979 objectives outlined and proposed by President Louis Jenkins of the Amissville Ruritan Club. The final project of 1978 was reported in the distribution of eight fruit baskets and four larger food cartons to needy Rappahannock homes at Christmas time. Chairman Robert B. Settle included the Amissville Methodist Church in sharing the cost of this endeavor. As indicated by the club treasurer Charles Mills, this was only a small portion of the $5200.00 earned and distributed by the Amissville Club during 1978. President Jenkins quickly followed this by giving full appreciation to all those Rappahannock residents who had co-operated in the reciprocal community service. During the new year the club will appoint an Amissville resident to act as a contact with the volunteer organization FISH. Other plans include a proposal to give the high school students an opportunity to write on the subject: How is Teen Age Discipline Helpful? The famous summer barbecue will hold a distinguished sixteenth anniversary sometime in July. The Amissville Club is one of 1,375 National Ruritan Clubs which will take part in the 50th anniversary convention to be held January 25 in Cincinnati. Herman R. Terhune when there is a law which has been on the books since 1954, Code Section 4-78.1 allowing a fine of up to $100.00 if anyone 18 or younger is caught bringing beer on school grounds. It would not George Beard take many fines to break this up if it is a problem in the schools. 1 testified at a Bingo hearing on the new Bingo Bill for all the folks in the District. After being there for 2'A hours I was the only one favoring the bill. Many of those testifying ahead of me were opposed to the restriction of three nights a week in rented halls. You should have seen and heard them. One nattily attired fellow informed the Committee he charged different organizations $225.00 a night for rent on his Bingo hall. That’s $1,350.00 per week. He will have been in business a year next month and claimed, after questioning, that he and his partner have only made $1500.00 a piece since February???? Well, thanks for reading and see you next week. George P. Beard, Jr. Letters To The Editor Story Praised To the editor: Tonight I read Ms. Daphne Hutchinson’s article of January 4, 1979 concerning Eva Smith. I read it to my Dad, who knows her well, and to my Mom, who grew up in Washington, Virginia. After enjoying the content of the article, we all agreed that the writer was extremely talented, also. We laughed a lot, cried a little and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. Congratulations on a splendid article! HAROLD G. BROWN JR. $2,000 Needed To the editor: The students at Rappahannock County High School have raised another $701.90 towards surfacing the track. An estimated $2,000 is still needed to complete the physical layout. Equipment can then be purchased for effective practice and track meets for our team. Fund raising projects recently brought: —$97.10 from pop bottle drive, —$176.90 from stereo giveaway, —$427.90 from jog-a-thon. Track members and coaches would like to thank the public for their support in these projects. Any individual or organization wishing to help students further progress on the track can send donations to C. E. “Ned” Johnson, Box 211, Sperryville, Va. 22740.° ANN SPIEKER RCHS Girls Track Coach Quality Service To the editor: Often we take for granted the work of those who unceasingly provide quality services to the community. I would like to commend one of your own staff. Daphne Hutchinson, for her capable efforts in reporting local events in this paper. When her name came up in conversation a few days ago, I was not surprised to hear everyone commend her highly on her attention to detail, her accurateness, her honesty, her enjoyable journalistic style, and her dedication to community betterment. The Rappahannock News is indeed fortunate to have Daphne on its staff. CAMILLE HARRIS Flint Hill Saddened To the editor: I am saddened and disappointed that the News has taken the stand that publishing photos of hunters with their killed bobcats is newsworthy. I totally agree with Dr. Martin and Mr. Jones who have sent in letters of protest. The bobcat in Virginia is considered to be rare and in many states it is endangered. The bobcat in Virginia does not need to be regulated hunting as your comment insinuated. Please do not consider me as an “anti-hunting freak" as I have grown up in a hunting family and have put many a dinner of venison, moose and gamebirds on the table. However, the status of the bobcat in our state and county does not lend itself to your glorifying the bobcat hunter with words and photos. Is this- our Rappahannock Heritage? (MRS.) DAVID BERRY Stupid Sport To the editor: I wish the hunters would stop shooting Bobcats. 1 do not see any reason why they shoot them. They say it is a sport. 1 think that it is a cruel, stupid sport. ' Bobcats are neat animals. There are not many left in Sperryville. If hunters keep shooting them there will not be any left. If there are so few how come you have a hunting season on them? Please don't let the hunters shoot them. NEIL ROBINSON Age 11 In Agreement To the editor: I am in agreement with the others who have written regarding your publishing photographs of dead bobcats. I am also a hunter and 1 respectfully disagree that it “takes a skilled hunter to bag this quarry.” Your caption in the first bobcat photo stated that the hunter shot a bobcat after it had been treed by his dogs! Since there are so few bobcats around, I think it’s mostly luck. I wouldn’t shoot one myself—and particularly not one in a tree as they did at Piedmont Farms. I was taught that hunting should also be sporting. You stated in one photo caption that "these animals can be fierce using their sharp teeth and very long, sharp claws.” 1 hope you’re not suggesting that humans should fear this timid animal. Bobcats aren’t hurting anybody—1 wish we could Say the same thing about man. W. S. MILLER Editor's note: 1 trust that all of you bobcat fans will appear at the annual hearings of the Virginia Game Commission when the game laws are updated or altered and seasons established. These are always advertised statewide for public consumption. They are the folk who should know your feelings. Personally. 1 am not pro or anti bobcat, si Spending Controls State Senator Elliot Schewel of Lynchburg and Delegate Vance Wilkins of Amherst announced Monday that a resolution has been filed in the General Assembly calling for amending the Constitution to require the State government to control its spending to a Fixed percentage of Virginia's economy. More than half the Senate and nearly half the House have signed as patrons. Schewel and Wilkins stated that this very strong show of support is evidence of the merit of the proposal, and is a reflection of its strong backing. Schewel and Wilkins emphasized that this is the most practical way available to insure that the high standards of fiscal responsibility that have been practiced in the past will be honored by future generations of General Assemblies and Administrations. They reported that over 30 organizations in Virginia whose members are vitally concerned with maintaining a sound, balanced economy have endorsed the proposal. These include many statewide organizations such as The Virginia State Chamber of Commerce, Virginia Farm Bureau, Retail Merchants, Automobile Dealers, Agri-Business Council, Association of General Contractors, Forestry Association, and at least 20 local chambers of commerce including Lynchburg, Norfolk, Alexandria, Peninsula, Suffolk, Petersburg, Arlington and Pulaski. Excellence Award The Rappahannock Chapter of the American Heart Association topped its goal in the 1978 fund campaign and netted an award of excellence for the group. An award of excellence is given when a challenge goal is exceeded. The Rappahannock Chapter realized $2236 in the 1978 fund drive when the quota was $2000. Chapter chairman. Mary Quaintance expressed extreme pleasure in the diligence of district captains in the county, as well as her co-chairman, Mary R. Miller. Those working last year included Barbara Gentry, Maybelle Gilkey, Myrtle Falls, Aline Johnson, Nanc/W Nicholas and Nancy Reeve. For the 1979 campaign Merle Daczewica and Carolyn Leake will fill positions vacated by Myrtle Falls and Maybelle Gilkey, respectively. Field Representative Kathy Easton met Tuesday with Mrs. Quaintance and Mrs. Miller to formulate plans for this year’s fund drive.

Coleman Proposes Appeal On Technical Dismissals Attorney General Marshall Coleman will ask the General Assembly to initiate a constitutional amendment giving the Commonwealth the right of appeal in criminal cases that otherwise could be dismissed because of legal technicalities. This proposal, which will be presented to the General Assembly, is part of the Attorney General’s anticrime package, of which uniform sentencing and tougher laws on juvenile sentencing are the major components. The proposal giving the Commonwealth the right of appeal would mean that the state could appeal circuit court decisions on legal rulings that prohibit admission of evidence on the basis of an improper search or seizure or that prohibit the admission of a confession, on the basis that it’s improperly Obtained; or (hat quash an indictment, on the ground that it was improperly brought. “The federal government and most states already have this right, and we need it in Virginia. Now an entire case can be thrown out on a legal technicality, and the Commonwealth’s hands are tied. The defendant almost always seeks an appeal when he loses. But the Commonwealth cannot appeal even the technical points. We want to make sure cases are tried on their merits so that criminals don’t escape through a maze of legal loopholes," Coleman said. The bill would require a constitutional amendment before it can go into effect, according to the Attorney General. Other anti-crime bills Coleman will seek passage of this year include: —clarifying the statute on parental abduction of a child so that it is a class six felony, the lowest felony classification. While this may not result in stiffer punishment of a parent who defies a court custody order, it will enable the state to extradite the parent who takes a child out of Virginia and will result in the return of the child to the court appointed guardian. —broadening the jurisdiction of the juvenile and domestic relations court to include disputes between relatives not living in the same house. Presently, a dispute between relatives can only be heard in Juvenile and Domestic Relations court if the relatives live in the same house. Tax Rate Increased | Workers may notice a i higher deduction for social l security when they get their paychecks in 1979, Bruce A. ► Hundley, social security \ manager in Culpeper, said recently. This is because the social security tax rate for 1979 will be 6.13 per cent, compared to 6.05 per cent in 1978, Hundley explained. The increase amounts to an additional 8 cents on every $100.00 in pay. In addition to paying the higher rates, workers who earn more than $17,700 will pay the tax on a larger share of their income in 1979, Hundley said. The maximum amount of earnings subject to social security taxes in 1979 is $22,900, compared to the $17,700 maximum in 1978. People who earn $22,900 or more in 1979 will pay. $1,403.77 in social security taxes, which is $332.92 more than the maximum payable in 1978, Hundley said. But, 1 *t**$&f&*L’;S* 1 Mile East of Marshal Rt S3 they also can count on higher social security benefits later. Employers match the social security taxes paid by employees on a dollar for dollar basis. The increases in the tax rate and the amount of earnings taxable in 1979 were part of a new financing package enacted by Congress in 1977 to keep the social security system on a sound footing until well into the next century. More information about social security taxes and benefits can be obtained at the Culpeper social security office, located at 522 Culpeper Shopping Center. The telephone number is 825-3500. Hanry W.

This, in effect,'tightens the marijuana laws, and makes cigarette manufacturers subject to the same felony provisions that apply to other narcotics and marijuana distributors. — broadening the definition of obstruction of justice, so that it is a misdemeanor to threaten a judge or officer of the court in connection with the discharge of his or her duties, even after a case has been heard. As the law reads now, threats against officers of the court, after a case has been heard and decided, are not always chargeable offenses under the obstruction of justice provision. Coleman is also proposing several changes either to clarify state laws or make ''them conform with Supreme Court ridings including: —Clarifying the definition of “law enforcement officer" as it pertains to the Policemen’s Bill of Rights. This would exclude a chief of police and the superintendent of the Department of State Police from the policeman's grievance procedure, since these are appointed officers. —authorizing _ the appointment of attorneys to serve as legal advisors for inmates in local jails. Under a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision, inmates must be either furnished counsel or a law library to assist them in filing matters w ith the courts. Appointing attorneys to fulfill this requirement is the less expensive alternative. —amending a provision on possession of burglarious tools, which now provides that the mere possession of tools is sufficient evidence for a felony conviction. The constitutionality of this section has been questioned, because it does not require prosecutors to show a defendant's intent to commit burglary in order to get a conviction on possession of burglarious tools. A conviction without such proof probably would not be upheld. —amending the state's laws governing work release programs so that the State Board of Corrections can regulate alj work release programs for local jails and state prisons. This would allow the state to get certification from the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration. Without this certification prisoners on work release cannot work on federally funded projects. —repealing sections in the Code prohibiting lawyer advertising to conform with an earlier U.S. Supreme Court ruling and to conform with the Attorney General's opinion issued in March, 1978. Since the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that lawyers have a first amendment right to advertise the fees of their legal services, state laws prohibiting such advertising are no longer valid.

RICHMOND NEWSLINE... THE EQUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT has taken one more step towards what most legislators believe will be certain failure of ratification attempts this year. A ratification resolution has already failed in Senate committee and last week a move to get the House resolution before the full floor without committee consideration also failed. Del. Dorothy McDiarmid (D- Fairfax) introduced a motion to discharge the House Privileges and Elections Committee from its duty in considering the amendment, but the House instead approved a substitute motion by Del. J. Warren White (D- Norfolk) to send the ratification resolution to the committee under regular rules. The move is expected to kill ERA in Virginia this year as the House committee has previously defeated the measure. Here is how area legislators stood on the 52-42 vote to send the resolution to committee: (A “no” vote favors ERA ratification.) NO Del. Floyd Bagley (D-Prince William) Del. George Beard (RCulpeper) Del. David Brickley (DPrince William) Del. Vincent Callahan (RFairfax) Del. Martin Perper (RFairfax) Del. Kenneth Plum (DReston) Del. Raymond Vickery (DFairfax) Del. Dorothy McDiarmid (DFairfax) Del. Earl Bell (D-Loudoun) YES Del. Raymond Guest (RFront Royal) Del. Alson Smith (DWinchester) RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS may be able to operate child care centers without adhering to certain state guidelines if the Senate follows the lead of the House. The House Monday approved 76-22 legislation which will exempt religious affiliated day care centers from welfare department regulations concerning curriculum requirements. Opponensituations at some child care centers, afe Supporters of the measure countered that preschoolers would still be protected by health and safety standards and that the exemption would keep the state from interfering in the religious teachings of churches. * • • • THE HOUSE has killed a bill which would have prohibited 18-year-olds from purchasing beer and consuming it off premises. The House voted down 44-52 Monday the measure sponsored by Del. Warren Barry (R-Fairfax), who said the legislation could help control a growing problem of alcohol abuse among Virginia high school students.
