Rappahannock News, March 29, 1979

30th YEAR, NO, 13 ISPS 455580_10Pag<*_ THURSDAY, MARCH 29,1979 Washington. Virginia 1W (.73-3349 20' School Board Gives RCHS Top Priority First Installment Of Plan Submitted By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock New Staff Writer On Wednesday, the Rappahannock Planning Commission received the first draft of background material on population and economy for the county’s comprehensive plan. “This inventory puts down in writing what most of us felt was the situation,’’ commented planner Newbill Miller after John Capelle, executive director of the Rappahannock-Rapid an Planning District Commission, had reviewed the data for the planners. Population analysis shows Rappahannock’s population declined by 32.6 per cent between 1930 and 1970 from 7,717 to 5,199. This trend reversed in 1970. By 1975, the population grew to 5,745, a ten per cent jump. “Percentagewise, that’s quite an increase,” said Capelle, noting that the state’s population grew only 7.1 per cent during the same period. In terms of total population, Rappahannock ranked 93rd out of 96 counties in 1970 and 90th in 1975. Measured in persons per square mile, Rappahannock’s 1930 population broke down to a density of 28.9. By 1960, persons per square mile had decreased to 20.1 and to 19.5 by 1970. Based on population estimates, the density for 1975 showed an upswing to 21.5 persons per square mile. Services Impact “A lot of the services that the supervisors may end up providing depends on the composition of the population,” said Capelle in explaining the inclusion of a section on age-sex distribution. A comparatively young population with many females of child bearing ages will affect the demand for public facilities and services, he said. Figures show Rappahannock’s population getting older with fewer people below 25 years and more in the over 65 years group. ‘‘This is pretty characteristic of rural counties,” Capelle said. Between 1950 and 1970, the median age of Rappahannock County residents increased from 26.3 to 30.4 years. In comparison, the median age in the state was 26.9 in 1970. Between 1950 and 1970 population under 18 years decreased from 38.4 per cent to 34.1 per cent while the over-65 population increased from 26.3 to 30.4 per cent. In regard to minority (Continued on Page 6) School Budget Is Bare Bone By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock New* Staff Writer The March 20th budget session of the Rappahannock School Board may have set a county record on motions dying for lack of second. Moving category by category through the proposed 197980 budget, the board members opted for the basic over the recommended with few adjustments. Invariably opposed to the allocations supported by Superintendent William Bloomer for expanded school operations, board members Walter Masterson and Alan Stokes also voted on several occasions against basic items required to meet state and federal mandates. Neither offered any explanation for their opposition. At times, the meeting threatened to degenerate into a parody of parliamentary procedure. Time and again, chairman Beverly Massie handed her authority to vicechairman Paul Nichols so she could initiate a motion. Nichols opened the meeting with a motion that the board accept the budget as recommended by Dr. Bloomer. After Nichols’ proposal died for lack of second, Mrs. Massie asked for a motion to'go through line item by line item. Her request met with a long silence before Stokes suggest a less specific review by categories. His motion passed four to one with Nichols opposed. The first category, administration, included as major items salaries for superintendent, assistant superintendent and administrative secretaries, as well as legal counsel fees. Of these, only legal fees showed a difference—S3,000 to $5,000—between basic and recommended. Before a motion was made on the category of administration, Masterson demanded to know what skills children were going to acquire for expenditures in administrative salaries. The county is paying more money for education, he claimed, with no corresponding increase in skills demonstrated by students. Masterson reported that the median number of years spent in school by Rappahannock residents was 8.6 while the state median was 11.7 and national median 12.2 years. “Our budget is increasing at $100,000 a year. Are skills increasing at the same rate” he asked. Bloomer responded that the contents of the proposed budget would provide for text book purchases, inservice training for teachers through workshops and consultants, purchase of instructional supplies to help teachers “provide a learning environment,” opportunities for high school students to meet minimum standards for graduation and elementary students to master basic learning skills. He added that tests administered at the end of the current year when compared to the previous year’s scores j(Continued on Page 4) —Rappahannock News Photo /S. Latham AMISSVILLE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH was damaged last spring in a severe storm which whipped off a portion of the roof and the trim around the steeple. The roof has long since been repaired and the steeple was fixed Monday. A crane hoisted the workman to the steeple so he could replace the siding that had been ripped off. Trailers Approved For RCHS By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock News Staff Writer In a split vote, the Rappahannock School Board approved the capital outlay portion of the 1979-80 school budget as recommended by superintendent William Bloomer. With a total of $74,715, the item includes $8,000 for underground gasoline storage tanks at the new school bus garage, $6,000 for site preparation for the garage, $7,300 for track equipment and $53,415 for three trailers with furniture to be located at the high school. In defending the appropriation for the trailers, Bloomer maintained that Ruritans Provide Convalescence Aids a community assistance program, now in the developing stage, has been reported by George Kidwell, chairman of the Human Development, a relative new committee of the Amissville Ruritan Club. Various aids and auxiliary equipment used in convalescence or long term illness are being collected and offered for public use, at no charge. Wheel chairs, hospital beds, crutches and walkers are items that will become available. All this sans federal funding, without government bureaucracy, simply provided for by old fashioned do unto others inspiration. All equipment will be available at T. C. Barron’s Viewtown Store. A request is made that additional donations or loans, by the public, of any apparatus or aids used in convalescent illness be made to George Kidwell. The Ruritan is a national volunteer organization ot 38,000 members with a limited number of seven paid employees. H. R. Terhune Short-Order Lunches AtRCHS Short-order lunches will be available at Rappahannock County High School starting April 2. The lunch will cost SO cents and will consist of a sandwich, a vegetable, fruit, dessert and milk. The bagged lunch is Type A and may be carried outside or eaten in the cafeteria, as seating space permits. This new program is being carried out on a trial basis with the hope that students will dispose of trash properly. The menu for the bagged lunch will be published in the Rappahannock News and will be posted on the cafeteria door. there was “no other viable way to attack the space problem” at the high school before school starts in August, 1979. Masterson objected to the trailers, describing them as ”$48,000 worth of storage space.” The high school has gotten by this far without modular units, he said, suggesting that the money be spent for permanent construction instead. “Earlier in the budget, we approved two additional teachers at the high school,” recalled chairman Beverly Massie. “Where are we going to put them?” she asked Masterson. “I don’t know. I didn’t vote for them,” he answered. According to Bloomer, trailers last from eight to ten years and can be sold or used as storage space when no longer needed, depending on which alternative is most economically feasible. He acknowledged that the high school may be able to get by with one double trailer but added that the board would have to decide what it wanted to do without. “You can omit the english class and face the ramifications there or you can omit the learning disabilities class and face the remifications there or you can keep the building trades units in the storage room and face the ramifications there,” he said. Bloomer added that he’d recommended three single units instead of one double and one single because he felt singles had greater resale potential. “It’s a shame we can’t utilize the money in permanent classroom space, commented Alan Stokes. "There’s bound to be some alternative.” Bloomer replied that he doubted if construction of three classrooms could be approved by the state department and finished by August, 1980. Mrs. Massie asked if the state department would grant a delay on meeting mandates that require additional classrooms since the school board was beginning a capital outlay program. “I don’t know but I think the pressure points will come from other sources than the state department if these needs aren’t met,” Bloomer answered. Stokes repeated his opposition to the modular units. "If we have to have some place to put these children, what choice do we have,” countered Mrs. Quaintance. ‘‘That’s a point well taken,” Mrs. Massie agreed. The motion to approve the recommended budget amount in capital outlay carried three to two with Masterson and Stokes opposed. But No Endorsement For Capital Outlay Proposals By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock !N**w* Staff Writer Architect Ed McClintock unveiled capital outlay jproposals for expansion of the elementary and high schools and construction of new central offices and school bus garage at Monday’s special school board meeting. Cost of the total package amounts to approximately $1,400,000. With the exception of Capital Outlay Committee Chairman Paul Nichols, however, the board members balked at endorsing any of the plans presented by McClintock. Instead, they voted to present the Supervisors with long-range capital outlay projections that merely list priorities. The board ranked the high school as number one, the elementary school second, the bus garage third and new administrative offices last. They included no proposals for when any expansion projects would begin, no estimated completion date and no indication of what type of expansion they are considering. McClintock prefaced his review of the schematic drawings for the construction projects by acknowledging the impact of inflation. “The same thing that’s happened with beef and gasoline has happened with school construction-costs...What was $10 a square foot in the early ’60’s is now $40,” he informed the board. He said the increase in construction costs has been tremendous, averaging approximately 12 per cent a year. But, he added, this inflation is relative when balanced against the corresponding increase in wages and tax base. High School McClintock’s proposal for the high school calls for 15, 950 square feet of space that includes: —green house and hor Tree Orders Delayed Dogwood and Redbud trees ordered under the 4-H tree program will not be available at the Rappahannock Extension Office on April 5 as previously designated. Weather conditions have caused a delay in delivery by the nursery. Announcement will be made for a pickup date as soon as the Extension office is notified of delivery. ticulture classroom at the rear of the shop area, —expanded kitchen and cafeteria area, with seating for approximately 200 students at a time, —expanded bath room facilities with toilets for the handicapped, —nine new classrooms including biology and science labs, special education, health and choral room, —text book storage area, —faculty lounge. In addition, the new construction would permit the library, guidance and administrative offices to be enlarged using existing space and the clinic returned to its intended use. It would also permit desks to be removed from the shop area into a separate, room for academic work. McClintock explained that the State Department of Education would review the building proposals as they relate to the educational programs and advise where the plan is over-built and under-built in regard to curriculum and enrollment. The State Department’s response will be sent back to the local school board, said McGintock, and then the local board will have to adjust plans to conform to the State Department’s suggestions. By beginning on capital improvement projects now, the Rappahannock board can finance construction ahead of the annual rate of inflation (currently at ten to 12 per cent) by borrowing at four per cent from the State Literary Fund, McClintock maintained. “If you delay for several years, costs will climb. At the same time, you won’t be getting facilities as soon as they’re needed,’’ said the architect. “The longer the project’s delayed, the more nebulous the cost projections become.” McGintock noted that the new construction would have to be served by a new heating system. Asked what the impact of expansion would be on the high school’s sewage treatment facility, McClintock replied that type of determination was totally outside his firm’s expertise. He maintained that it was still feasible to add on to the high school building. “You can get to the point where the tail is bigger than the dog,” he acknowledged.” (But) this building is still within the realms of adding to it.” Allowing construction costs of $40 per square foot plus ten per cent of the total for furniture and five per cent for architect fees, the price tag for the high scljpol expansion will amtfunt to approximately $647,570. According to Dr. Bloomer, “a ball park figure” including upgrading the sewage treatment facilities, would be closer to $750,000. Elementary School Plans for the elementary school call for 8,700 square feet of new space, including a music room, two special education rooms, handicapped toilets, standard toilets, storage, speech and learning disabilities resource rooms with office area. The new rooms will allow for the clinic and audiovisual rooms to revert to their original use. In addition, a new media center will expand the library by 25 per cent. The cost of the elementary expansion including construction, furniture and architect fees should amount to approximately $353,320 at current rates.

Tax Deadline Nears Five weeks before the May 1 state income tax deadline, needy half of Virginia’s two million taxpayers still have not mailed in their state income tax forms, the Virginia Department of Taxation said today. Now’s a good time to file those returns to avoid the last minute rush, department officials say, especially if a refund is due. The department is now processing refund returns in three to five weeks and is more than 100,000 refunds ahead of the 499,386 refunds processed by the same time last year. That turn-around time, however, could grow to eight weeks or more over the next two months. Officials added that even though a taxpayer must fill out the federal return first to get information needed on the state return, the forms don’t have to be mailed in that order or at the same time. Often people file for w their state refund first if they owe money on their federal return. The average refund so far this year is $115, about $12.50 mbre than the same average last year. Math mistakes are the most common errors tax* payers make that can delay refunds, officials said. Taxpayers can also help speed refunds by using the preaddressed mailing labels, double-checking social security numbers, and making sure the return is signed. Rappahannock taxpayers who need help or have questions about their state tax returns should contact Commissioner of Revenue Virginia Smith at 675-3513. ++++ For what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? —The Bible 1 THE GORDON BARNES WEATHER SERVICE Cuts cost for: • Farmers and farm related activities • Manufacturers and high energy users • Businesses dependent upon consumer buying responses • Contractors and weather dependent businesses Through Long-Term Forecasting and Consultation Call 301-365-5679 or Write: 8704 Metwood Read, Betliesda, Md. 20034. Vie J/omeDecor EARLY'S CARPET SALES & SERVICE ROWS 211—AMBSVILLE Almost from the beginning of civilizations, the manufacture of fine carpet has been a significant art form. Today, the range of good design and quality is ! better than ever. In addition to its aesthetic virtues, carpeting is practical because it gives warmth, sound•> proofing under foot, and generally does not show dirt as quickly as a resilient floor. The final choice niay simply be a matter of whether you prefer vacuuming or mopping. Broadloom is carpeting that is made on a wide or broad loom and, therefore, can usually be made wide enough to cover the floor of a room, wall to wall, with little or no seaming. It should be distinguished from the word rugs, which are floor coverings that are not wall to wall. Time marches on, but you will always find quality brand name carpeting at EARLY’S CARPETS, Route 211 Amissville, 937-5111, and 502 N. Main St., Culpeper, 825-8232.

Traffic Mishaps Three traffic mishaps were investigated by Trooper R. A. Baines during the weekend, two Saturday and the other on Sunday. Timothy W. Sweeney oftj Washington, D. C. was cited for driving while intoxicated after he was involved in a crash at Amissville Saturday evening. Sweeney was driving a 72 Pontiac when he ran off the shoulder of the road, struck a group of mail boxes at Ray’s Trailer Court, went through the parking lot at Lombardy Lunch Room and struck a parked car, totaling both. The 68 Chevrolet in the parking lot was owned by William Elliott of Remington. The same day, Mary Lou Craft of Castleton operating a 73 Plymouth on Route 618 near Laurel Mills, lost control of the vehicle and struck some trees. The car was declared a total loss. No charges were placed and she was taken to Culpeper Memorial Hospital by Castleton Rescue Squad. Charged with driving while intoxicated Sunday was Herbert Shanks of Reva. He was driving a 68 Mustang which went off the shoulder of the road, struck a sign post and flipped over. This crash occurred on Route 211 west of Washington at the cite of the new Coop. The vehicle was a total loss. ++++ The legitimate object of government is to do for a community of people what ever they need to have done, but cannot do at all, in their separate and individual capacities. -Abraham Lincoln < PD9 Advisory Committee Meets me ^umniunuy Advisory Committee of Planning District 9 of the Valley of Virginia held its spring meeting March 20 at the Culpeper Holiday Inn. Representing the citizens of Rappahannock were Douglas Baumgardner of Washington, who was recently appointed to a two year term on the committee, and Pearl Clarke of Amissville, who has been serving since January. The committee members assisted in finalizing a survey form that the Consortium will be mailing in the near future. According to Delores Dalton, Center Director for Planning District 9, the survey will be sent to approximately 2000 individuals who responded to the initial survey last spring. This includes many parents of children at the Rappahannock Elementary School. This follow-up survey will be utilized to make a final selection of college credit Safe Driving Points Add Up Of Virginia’s 3.3 million licensed drivers, 79 per cent or 2.6 million drivers each received one safe-driving point at the end of 1978, according to Vem L. Hill, commissioner of the Virginia Division of Motor Vehicles. “Since the Driver Improvement Program became effective January 1, 1975, good drivers have earned one good point for each calendar year that demerit points have not been assigned to their records,” Hill said. “That means if you have avoided license suspension, revocation or conviction of a moving violation during the last four years, you have four good points on your record,” he explained. Hill noted that drivers can accumulate a maximum of five safe-driving points which can be used to erase current or future demerit points. Some 22,210 drivers accumulated the maximum five points during 1978 by completing the Driver Improvement Clinic approved by DMV. Hill said the clinics are open to all drivers. Class Changed The meeting day for the exercise classes conducted at the local elementary school by Cathy Lowe has been changed.

Course Was Born The Old Dominion Hunt had a classic stroke of luck when in 1976 William W. Brainard, then the MFH, while hunting over the Eastham’s Ben Venue farm, saw in a flash of perception an almost perfect point-topoint course on the pastures north of U. S. Route 211. He became so enthused that he and David L. Ferguson, chairman of the Old Dominion Race Committee, decided to go to Louise and Tommy (who are among the biggest and most supportive landowners in Old Dominion’s hunt territory) with the exciting concept. Both Mr. and Mrs. Eastham, having grown up in the tra'dition of Virginia horse sports and both wanting to preserve the rural pursuits of Rappahannock County, agreed on the spot to let the hunt build a race course on the land, land that had been in Louise King Eastham’s family since 1805. Course Arrangement The arrangement arrived r at between the Old Dominion Race Committee and the Easthams, is a simple, workable one. The hunt was to build the timber and brush jumps on the pastures and cut trails for the pair race through wooded sections, reseed the pastures each year, and have an on-going program of laying drain tiles where needed on the courses. Each year crews of hunters agreed to sweep the course for rocks and other impediments while filling all groundhog holes. Tommy Eastham was to build the roads into the race course and to clear brush and trees from the course and parking areas. When the course is not in use for the races, Tommy would plan to make hay and graze his cattle. Today, when the individuality of some of Virginia’s point-to-point races of long standing is threatened by loss of the traditional venue of their host-farm terrain, Old Dominion Hounds is a most fortunate hunt in being given an incomparably beautiful pastoral setting right out of the 19th century, through the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas L. Eastham of Ben Venue Farm. 1 NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING In accord with the requirement as set forth by Virginia Law, a Public Hearing is hereby established for Wednesday, April 4, 9:30 AM in meeting room A of the Warren University Union, James Madison University, Harrisonburg, Va.

People who worry about inflation aren’t kidding; the problem is real and serious. But what can we do to protect ourselves? If you are a homeowner, you are doing it unknowingly because one of the safest and surest hedges against inflation is the ownership of real estate. Your “shelter” expense will stay fairly steady even in times of rising prices. The monthly payments on a mortgage don’t change at all. If you decide to sell, you can be confident—except in a forced sale—of getting back more money than before inflation hit. And, if you’re in need of cash, your rising equity in your home increases your potential borrowing power. So, if you’re a homeowner, you’ve been an effective economist all along and didn't know it.

THURSDAY, MARCH 29,1979 School Board Gives RCHS Top Priority (Continued from Page 1) show a building containing 3,500 square feet with a board room, offices for superintendent, assistant superintendent and clerks, public waiting room, fire resistant record storage area, conference room, toilets including facilities for the handicapped, office for special services coordinator, space for cafeteria coordinator, work area, porch for protected entrance and vestibule. According to McClintock, the offices would be constructed “more or less like a house” at costs between $30 and $35 a square foot. Using $35 per square foot and including furniture and architect fees, cost for administrative offices should run approximately $124,337. Garage McClintock’s proposals for a bus garage call for a threebay unit including two main bays with a drive-through facility and variable length lift and a third bay with wash and paint area. The garage would also include a main office, storage area, toilet facilities for drivers and an outside island that can service two vehicles. “It’s not the most imaginative type of design job but it is a functional facility,” said McClintock. “We’d be building for volumn as opposed to quality,” with cost per square foot of $30 to $35. At $35 per square foot, including architect fees but deleting provisions for office furniture, the bus garage with an area of 4,065 square feet will cost approximately $143,000. “A lot of people plan on a larger scope with the idea of shaving and cutting here and there. That’t not the case with our proposal (for the elementary and high schools),” McClintock stated. “Any cuts from this point back will be detrimental,” he informed the board. "Will we have outgrown these things by the time we actually see them?” asked elementary teacher Lynn Baines. Meets Current Needs Bloomer replied that proposals for expansion at the high school would take care of current needs only. The same applies to the elementary school, he said, with the exception of a projected need for a selfcontained learning disabilities classroom. Paul Nichols, chairman of the Capital Outlay Committee, formally submitted McClintock’s schematic drawings to the board for acceptance “and approval of the rate at which (expansion) should occur” giving high priority to the needs at the high school. His action came with unanimous support from the capital outlay committee. Board chairman Beverly Massie asked for a recommendation for long-range capital outlay to forward tc the supervisors. Alan Stokes proposed thal a study of the sanitary facilities be completed before any decision is made or capital outlay projects at the high school. “The State Water Contro Board (SWCB) says ‘tell us what you’re planning tc build, how many bathroom: (the facility will have), hove many gallons (of waste water! will be flowing through the system and then we’ll tell you what you have to do,’ Bloomer repeated. The SWCB “reacts father than acts. Their job is to approve and modify plans rather than draw plans,” he said. Mrs. Massie agreed that the high school had top priority in any capital outlay program. “There’s only one area I have trouble with—the green house and horticulture classroom,” she said. “We have our program at Piedmont,” Mrs. Massie added, noting that the regional school was also planning to begin a capital outlay program. “We don’t want to duplicate,’’ interjected Stokes. Acknowledging that a formal proposal had yet to be presented to the Piedmont board, Dr. Bloomer reported that information from the regional school’s administration indicated there was no greenhouse in the school’s expansion plans. He added that Orange already had a green house while Madison and Culpeper were both considering construction. Sewage System Costs Masterson agreed with Stoke’s position that questions on modifications to the sewage disposal system should be answered before any expansion at the high school was approved. “When we talk about priorities, we’re talking about what we’re taking to the board of supervisors. They’re mainly interested in our thinking on the projection of needs,” Mrs. Massie responded. “Are you saying that you don’t want to project (school) needs to the supervisors until we get cost figures (for modifications that may be needed for the high school’s sand filter system)?” she asked Masterson. He countered that it was the capital outlay committee’s responsibility to project costs as well as need. Noting that the proposed high school expansion would cost about $733,700 without modifications to the sanitary system, Mrs. Massie asked again if the board was going to make a recommendation to the supervisors. “I would suggest we go ahead with our immediate needs despite not having information on sewage,” Nichols proposed. Bloomer told the board that supervisor chairman E. P. Luke had indicated the supervisors “were looking for capital outlay ideas with more definite (cost) figures in the future...They would like to know our time frame so they can do fiscal planning,” he explained. Costs Figured Later “They wouldn’t expect us to bring in a dollar amount?” asked Nichols. “Not at this point,” Bloomer answereed, adding that the school board could provide the supervisors with a “possible ball park figure” on capital outlay. “I know what my priorities are. How they’re going to be funded is another matter,” Mrs. Massie said. “Do you go with the entire thing as projected?” asked Stokes. “No. First I want the state department of education to see the plans and judge if they’re realistic in regard to curriculum,” the chairman replied. “I want the ones that benefit the children most,” interjected Arthlinda Quaintance, listing her priorities as high school, elementary school, bus garage and administrative office. Nichols listed his priorities in the same order. “I’ve stated my views,” Stokes said. “We need space at the high school for storage and classrooms (but) I don’t believe we can afford the whole ball of wax right now.” He maintained that expansion at the elementary school could be postponed while the bus shop "will be decided by the highway department” when it takes over the current building for widening Route 211. ‘‘If we can rent office space, I say continue to do so,” he added. No Snap Decision "This is the first itme I’ve seen the high school plans,” Stokes continued, “I don’t want to make a snap decision.” He stated that he’d like “input from space engineers” to cut McClintock’s proposals where possible to make the project a ’’more realistic budget item.” Bloomer noted that the state department of education would not review the expansion proposals “unless the board puts its stamp of approval on the plans...Without this action, they will do absolutely nothing,” he said, noting that the proposals could still be revised after receiving the state department’s response. “I don’t want to go on record approving this at this time,” Stokes announced, waving his hand over the schematic drawings for the high school. “Will you go on record in favor of expansion at the high school (without including specific proposals)?” asked Mrs. Massie. Stokes replied that he would with priorities listed as the high school and elementary school. ‘‘I concur,” Masterson added. After making a motion to forward to the supervisors capital outlay priorities listed as high school, elementary school, garage and administrative offices, Nichols noted that the county could have saved $250,000 by securing a literary loan three years ago when a capital outlay committee first documented space needs. The priority list was approved unanimously. Bloomer volunteered to get cost estimates on all projects to bring before the supervisors at the April 5 board meeting. Happy 100th, Dear Granny Mrs. Margaret “Granny” Butler celebrated her 100th birthday Thursday with family and friends at Oak Springs of Warrenton Comprehensive Care Facility. Mrs. Butler’s mother herself lived to observe her 104th birthday. “I think Oak Springs should be commended for the care of my grandmother,” said grandson Edward Butler of Warrenton. “They are extremely good to her here.” Granny Butler has 18 grandchildren and “many” great-grandchildren. Mrs. Butler’s two daughters, Mrs. Elizabeth Jenkins of Fairfax and Mrs. Virginia Jenkins of Woodville, were ill and unable to attend the birthday party. Mrs. Butler is a native of Rappahannock County. Her husband was the late William A. Butler. Their third child, a son, was the late Willie Butler. Our Rappahannock Heritage Only Basics Adopted In School Budget (Continued from Page 1) would provide a “better yardstick” to measure student progress. Masterson countered that Rappahannock scores were still below the national and state averages on SAT tests, that 60 per cent of the elementary students were reading below grade level. “In this category, our SRA scores were the second worst in the state,” he added. Masterson maintained that Rappahannock schools needed a “specific plan” to improve the education program. “It seems to me we have a missing link and it seems to be quality...We’re spending money and not getting too much in return,” he concluded. Whistling Dixie “To assume that all students in Rappahannock County are capable of reading above grade level, reading above the national norm, performing above the national norm on achievement tests is whistling Dixie,” Bloojper countered. Masterson asked how the superintendent could explain the 30 per cent drop-out rate of students between the eighth and twelfth grades. Bloomer maintained that the lack of alternative education programs influenced Rappahannock’s high rate. Where can the blame be placed when students can’t read, Masterson demanded. On the parents, the child, the teacher, the educational system “or on a combination of these factors,” Bloomer responded. “What’s being done to improve the situation?”, Masterson asked, adding that he wanted a specific plan, to improve the educational program. “The most specific plan I can give you is the six year division plan adopted by this board,” Bloomer countered. Nature Of The County “I’d like to defy anybody to say that children can’t learn in Rappahannock County,” interjected Board member Paul Nichols. In response to Stokes’s pointing out the low level of educational attainment in Rappahannock, Nichols said this was “the nature of the county.” With no more discussion from the board members, Mrs. Massie asked for a motion to adopt, either the basic or the recommended appropriation for administration. When no one responded, she requested Nichols to act as chairman and made the motion herself to approve the basic. It carried three to two with Stokes and Masterson opposed. Under the next category, instruction regular day school, Arthlinda Quaintance moved that the basic category be approved. Again, there was no second and again, Nichols took over as chairman so Mrs. Massie could second the motion. It carried three to two with Masterson and Stokes opposed. By approving the basic rather than the recommended amount, the board deleted a special services coordinator, an art teacher for the elementary school and salary supplements for teachers and assistant superintendent. The basic category, however included a seven per cent pay raise awarded to all school personnel and two additional teachers for the high school. In the category of other instructional costs, the board approved the basic amount, amended to provide for two additional aides. In addition, they cut one-third from the amount alloted for school textbook adoptions, an appropriation that was the same in both the basic and recommended budget proposals. The category of attendence and health services carried a part-time psychologist in the basic column and full-time psychologist in the recommended Column. Nichols moved that the recommended be approved but again, his motion died for a lack of second. Mrs. Massie noted that the part-time psychologist currently shared with Fauquier schools may be working in the adjoining county full-time in 1979-80. ‘'There’s a possibility we might work out a similar arrangement with another division,” she said. Heads Above Water Only “At the present time, no one has a part-time position projected for next year,” Bloomer cautioned. In answer to a question from Nichols, the superintendent explained that “we’ve been able to keep our head above water only” on testing procedures with an experienced ipart-time psychologist. He also noted that the psychologist had received help from the educational diagnostician—a position that won’t be funded next year. If the position is only part-time and if the current person filling the position doesn’t return next year, said Bloomer, “I don’t see how we can do it...We’re having a difficult, time now meeting the state’s 45-day deadline for processing.” The vote was four to one with Nichols opposed to go with the basic budget and a part-time psychologist. Moving to the operational costs for transportation, Masterson asked why there’d been a drop in the budget items for repairs, tires, parts, supplies and gasoline, oil and lubricants. The amount requested is lower, Bloomer said, because last year’s figure included transportation costs for summer school. If Rappahannock has a summer school this year, he continued, it will be funded primarily with Title I money with the balance paid by last year’s left-over summer school funds. Stokes asked if the extra bus driver for the handicapped included in the recommended budget would transport only five or six children. Assistant superintendent Rob McDaniel answered that the handicapped driver would transport that many for therapy plus additional Children who come in to the school for speech therapy. The driver would be paid at an hourly rate, he added. Stokes asked if a van could be modified to transport handicapped youngsters. “I don’t think it’s possible,” McDaniel said. He explained that the vehicle must be capable of holding a wheel chair and must have a' hydraulic life to pick up the chair. If the van owned by the school—which has no seats—was to be modified, it could only hold three to four students plus a wheelchair, according to McDaniel. The vehicle proposed for purchase can carry 25 and so could be used for other purposes, McDaniel said. Safety Factors “I think we have to consider the safety factors in transporting those children,” Bloomer interjected. “The current situation is not the safest.” “I question buying a $16,000 vehicle for one child when the van could be modified,” argued Stokes. “I can appreciate the economics,” Bloomer said, but added that an accident could occur under current conditions. He informed the board that the amount — $2,000 — paid parents in lieu of transportation could be cut from the budget if the new vehicle was approved. “At present, we’re within the law by paying for transportation in lieu of providing it,” stated Mrs. Massie. “However, that is being questioned by at least one parent,” warned McDanile. "I think if it came down to it, we’d have to provide transportation,” he advised the board. The board voted three to two with Masterson and Stokes opposed to approve the basic column with the addition of a driver for the handicapped van. Under replacement of transportation vehicles,. Nichols’s motion to accept the recommended budget including a handicapped vehicle and new administrative car died for lack of second. When no one would offer a substitute motion, Mrs. Massie again stepped down from the chair to propose adoption of the basic column with the addition of $16,000 for a handicapped vehicle. The motion carried unanimously. School food services, with identical amounts in both basic and recommended columns, was approved unanimously with no discussion. The basic amount for operation of school plants was also approved unanimously. The board declined to include $8,000 for a sewage aeration system even though Bloomer reported that the elementary lagoon was operating “barely within” State Water Control Board standards. Should effluent there drop below standards, requiring a new aeration system, “I don’t know how we’re going to pay for it if it’s not included in the budget,” warned the superintendent. In addition, the board also failed to include the $1,180 cushion Bloomer recommended against expected increases in the costs of oil and coal. The board also went with the basic amount for maintenance of school plants by a four to one vote with Nichols opposed. “I don’t know if we can repair the roof and put in the sidewalks for less than the recommended and get a bonded job,” he said. No Fringe Benefits The vote on fixed charges was again four to one for the basic column with Nichols opposed. The major difference between the basic and recommended amounts in this category was $7,300 for payment of mandatory life insurance premiums for school personnel. Funds for summer school, adult education, and debt service were approved unanimously. All three had identical amounts in the basic and recommended columns. After all of the budget but the capital outlay portion had been approved, Bloomer asked for clarification on whether the board intended to leave the salary supplements for extra curricular duties and hours toward advanced degrees as they currently stand. “Do you want to give a seven per cent increase on the supplements?” he asked. “There are a tremendous amount of supplements that you’re giving for babysitting,” charged Masterson. “Some (of the coaches) have never played the sport they’re teaching...Are a lot of these things absolutely necessary? Do we need an eighth grade team?” he asked, suggesting one team to represent the high school in each sport. Bloomer responded that none of the extra-curricular activities were “absolutely necessary. ♦ Masterson continued with charges that some sports “have more coaches than participants.” “I don’t know of any sport where that’s the case,’’ Bloomer countered. "Please check the eighth grade basketball coach to see if he’s ever played,” Masterson requested. “My information is that he played in high school but not beyond that,” Bloomer answered. Stokes asked if the extra curricular pay scale rewarded competence. Pay For Wins? “That’s not been the case in the past but if you believe that competency is based on win-lose percentages, we can pay for the number of games won,” countered Bloomer. “The thing that makes me suspicious is we had a head coach out there last year teaching incorrect fundamentals of the game and he was rewarded for...teaching incorrectly. How about the injuries to the youngsters?” asked Masterson, who is a former professional baseball player and currently serves as assistant coach at George Mason University. The coach in question, said. Bloomer, was paid for the time he put into the baseball program. Nichols moved that an additional SI,290 be added to the instruction category to cover extra-curricular and degree supplement increases. “I think those teachers who do those extra activities should have an increase. I’d rather give it to the teachers than anybody else because they’re the ones in there everyday working,” agreed Mrs. Quaintance. The motion carried three to two with Masterson and Stokes opposed. Following the vote, the board recessed its meeting until March 26 for a session on capital outlay programs and a vote on the capital outlay section of the proposed budget. Letter ToThe Editor Driver Criticized To the editor: This is my first experience in writing to a newspaper. However, I feel the parents and citizens as the taxpayers of Rappahannock- have the right to know of the problem I am concerned about. A certain bus driver in the county is using abusive and graphic language toward our children who ride the bus. One realizes the bus driver must have order as should a parent or teacher. However, it is obvious this driver does not qualify for the job. I say this because there are at least six families who have reported this matter to the proper authorities, including the district supervisor. A meeting has been requested, yet we are denied that privilege. We get the so called “run around.” Meanwhile, some children are becoming paranoid in regard to boarding the bus. Their fear involves being abused, suspended, etc. Several suspensions have already taken place. One senior at the high school has been suspended for the remainder of the term. Yet that same' senior is allowed transportation from the school to a class in Culpeper without any problem. This bus driver does not have a schedule in reference to a timetable in arriving for the daily pickup. Nevertheless, the children are expected to be on time or they are left. Furthermore the driver stops at a store when convenient. Some of the children are permitted to purchasei cokes and snacks while others remain detained. This bus driver has even taken underaged children on the bus. Does the insurance cover this? After discussing this situation with several families, we are asking the taxpayers and citizens of this county to rally together and speak out on these problems. Perhaps our elected (by the people) officials have forgotten who voted for them. Consider who you vote for when electing someone for your district. Also, our appointed officials must remember we will fight for our children and all human rights. CHRISTINE V. CORBIN 4 (Editor’s note: Superintendent William Bloomer confirmed that complaints have been received regarding the bus driver in question. According to Dr. Bloomer, administrative action has been taken.) Cale To Lead Program Dr. Franklin W.

First Installment Of Plan Submitted (Continued from Page 1) population, Capelle noted that the "number of blacks in the county has remained pretty constant," decreasing slightly from 17.6 per cent in I960 to 16.5 per cent by 1970. The draft plan notes a sharp decline between the 514 age group and 15-24 age groups. There were approximately 1,100 5-14 year olds in Rappahannock in 1970 but only about 800 1524 year olds. “This suggests a general lack of employment or housing opportunities with young people moving elsewhere to seek these requirements,” the report states. Median School Yean “The percentage of people who have completed four years of college has remained pretty constant for the last three years,” Capelle said. He agreed with chairman H. S. Barksdale that “most who graduate from college leave the county.” According to the draft plan, the educational attainment of Rappahannock County residents has increased steadily since 1950. At that point, the median number of school years completed by males in the county was 5.8 and by females 6.8. These numbers increased to 6.3 and 7.5 by 1960 and were 7.4 and 8.6 in 1970. According to the background information in the draft plan, median income of Rappahannock families increased from $989 to $6,077 between 1950 and 1970. The county’s median family income between 1960 and 1970 climbed faster than the state’s, increasing by 109 per cent compared to 82 per cent for Virginia as a whole. Estimates from the TayloeMurphy Institute project median incomes for Rappahannock County families at $9,073 in 1975 and $12,999 in 1980. Agriculture Down The data presented the planners by Capelle shows the percentage of county residents employed in agriculture dropping from 56.2 per cent in 1950 to 37.3 By NANCY SECRIST VP I K\ten«ion \ gr n t Floor Maintenance: Wood floors with fine finishes should never be scrubbed with water. Sweeping or dry mopping should be all that is necessary for routine cleaning. A soft cotton floor mop kept barely dampened with a mixture of 3 parts kerosene and 1 part paraffin oil is excellent for dry mopping. When the mop becomes dirty, it should be washed in hot soap and water and dried. Exceptional patches of dirt that cannot be removed may be removed by rubbing lightly with fine steel wool moistened with turpentine. Varnished floors: Brush with soft long-handled hair brush and dust with mop. Waxed floors: Clean with cheesecloth and renew finish with wax. Badly soiled floors may be cleaned by removing old wax with turpentine or carbon tetrochloride on a cloth and rewax. Unfinished Wooden floors: Remove stains from wood. Scrub with soft brush, sandsoap (or steel wool) following the wood grain pattern. Wipe off cleaners with clear water. Brush if necessary. Linoleum: Wash with mild suds and lukewarm water. Wait until floor is thoroughly dry before applying wax. To remove marks caused by pressure, rust, etc., apply a jelly of mild soap with fine steel wool, remove and rewax. To remove accumulation of wax on linoleum, allow soapsuds to remain on floor for ten minutes. Rubber tile floors: Wash with clear water and clean mop. Avoid grease which softens rubber. How long should canned goods be kept? VPI&SU recommends l‘/j years. If kept longer, expect deterioration in the quality of the product but it will still be safe to eat unless container has been damaged. When in doubt, throw out. RECIPES FOR LOW CHOLESTEROL DIET Lemon Baked Chicken 1 frying chicken (2V) to 3 pounds), cut into serving pieces 3 tablespoons vegetable oil 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 1 crushed clove garlic Vi teaspoon salt Dash of pepper Arrange chicken in a shallow casserole or baking dish. Pour lemon and oil mixture over chicken. Cover and bake until tender about 45-50 minutes. Uncover casserole the last 10 minutes to allow chicken to brown. Baste occasionally during cooking. Before serving, sprinkle with chopped parsley. Makes 4 servings. GLAZED JULIENNE CARROTS 3Vi cups julienne carrot strips (1 pound) V* cup water Vi teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons soft margarine 3 tablespoons sugar, nutmeg or chopped mint Place carrots, water and salt in saucepan. Cover and 1 cook over low heat about 10 minutes (carrots should be firm). Add margarine and sugar. Continue cooking uncovered stirring occasionally until carrots are tender and well-glazed. Sprinkle with nutmeg or mint. Makes 6 servings.

The background report states that “although agriculture is still the foundation of the Rappahannock County economy, more residents now depend more heavily on other sectors of the economy for their employment needs.” The report also notes that the Aileen Plant in Flint Hill is the county’s largest employer with 482 persons working in March 1977. As of that date, there were no other employers in the county with more than 15 employees. “How many of the people who work at Aileen live in Rappahannock County and how many commute?” asked Phil Irwin, adding he’d heard that 80 per cent of those employed were commuters. Capelle replied that it would be impossible to gather that type of data without permission from plant management. “Do you have any accurate figures on the tourist trade up Route 211?” asked Miller. “It’s very difficult to get that type of information,” answered Capelle. He added that all of the figures included in the background material were “somewhat out of date.” He explained that data from the 1980 census wouldn’t be available until April 1982, while some information, such as commuter growth figures, wouldn’t come out until 1984. According to informatin from the 1970 census, Rappahannock has had a total net out-commuting increase (of people who live in Rappahannock but work elsewhere) of 3.6 per cent1 between 1960 and 1970. “Generally, increasing outcommuting from an area suggests a lack or imbalance of local employment opportunities,” the report states. Capelle noted that the number of out-commuters has shown a 26.4 per cent 3ot|n iHarstjall i&EHtaurant RE-OPENING April 3rd Serving the finest Steaks oeaTooas ^ Cocktails Serving Lunch Tues. - Sat. 12-2:30 i Thursday, Friday (t Saturday 5 p.m. to 10 p.m Sundays for Brunch 12 to 2:30 p m Sunday Dinner 5 to 9 Rt. 55 Main St. Marshall, Va. 364-2314 ’T«<5r on Selected Stock RCK Televisions increase from 590 in 1960 to 746 in 1970. "It will be quite interesting to see what happens in 1980," he remarked. Food stores, with 37 per cent, account for the highest percentage of retail sales in Rappahannock while gasoline service stations come in second at 17 per cent. The 48 retail establishments in the county has total sales of $2,741,000 in 1972—a 9.2 per cent decrease over retail sales in 1967, according to the draft plan. Per Capita Income In 1974, the per capita income in Rappahannock was $3,200 compared with $4,701 in the state as a whole. “You’re way below the state in per capita intome but the per capita income for Rappahannock rose 62 per cent in five years while the state had a 57 per cent increase,” Capelle told the planners. “So while you’re behind, you’re catching up and increasing faster than the state as a whole.” Miller asked if the acreage within the boundaries of Shenandoah National Park had been included in computing the population per square mile for Rappahannock. When Capelle answered that park land had been included, Miller suggested that the population per square mile would be more accurate if the five square miles lying within the park was subtracted from the 274 total square miles in the county. Population per square mile “should be based on the area in which people can reside,” Miller maintained. “When (the comprehensive plan) is completed, whether (citizens) like it or not, at least they’ll say it’s accurate,” he added. Planner Dave Fannon asked how the background facts and figures would be worked into setting goals for the comprehensive plan. “Basically, this section is more important to the goals than any other portion of the plan,” Capelle replied. He indicated that the type of information included in the background section is critical for socio-economic planning. “A goal of an economic nature might be to increase employment in the agricultural industry,” he said. “As a social goal, take the education thing. I don’t want to jump into the school board’s territory but you might want to include a goal that the school board may have to work to implement,” Capelle continued. “Is that a general function of the planning commission—to project educational goals?” asked Fannon. Capelle answered that the planners could exercise this function. “Particularly as it relates to a capital improvements program,” interjected planner E P. Luke. “The plan is for the entire county,” Miller agreed, adding that schools are an important part of the overall picture. “Are there any figures available on the revenue derived from various occupations?” asked planner Alan Stokes. After Capelle replied that this information was unavailable, Miller noted that the report described agriculture as the foundation of Rappahannock’s economy. “Is that true? That’s one thing I would question.” Answering himself, Miller noted that persons involved in agribusiness weren’t included in the data that showed agricultural employment declining. “There’s a tremendous amount of revenue generated at the Coop,..There are mechanics who repair farm ma chinery. So we can expect agriculture to be the * background of the county’s economy if we take the whole agribusiness picture,” Miller stated. At the conclusion of review in the first two draft chapters for the comprehensive plan, Capelle reported that he would have the section on agriculture ready for the next planning commission meeting, scheduled for April 18. In other business, the planners proposed a budget for 1979-80 that includes: —$1,000 for advertising public hearings, —$3,000 for the county’s contribution to the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District Commission on costs of the comprehensive plan, —$6,000 for “consultant service” or legal fees, —$200 for postage and telephone, —$200 for travel expenses, —$1,240 for compensation of planning commission members.
