The fund-raising carnival provides revenue for operating expenses of the fire department and rescue squad and provides good, clean fun and entertainment for the entire family. The midway features rides, games and excitement for all. Good food and regular carnival fare will be available each evening along with games of skill. The feature tonight, Thursday, is the parade and Friday night a carnival queen will be crowned. Summer Here Summer will officially begin at 7:56 p.m., June 21, when the center of the sun moves directly above the Tropic of Cancer. June 21 is also the day of the year with the longest period of sunlight. At a latitude of 23.5 degrees north, the sun will not set but just touch the horizon at midnight and then begin to climb back into the sky. In much of Canada and northern Europe the sun will set but there will be twilight all night long. This is Midsummer’s Night Eve, celebrated in many lands by bonfires kept burning until ■" the sUn rises again. ? J "***£ T. f-M m m f \ —Rappahannock News Photo /S.

Local stations have had allotments cut by distributors, and residents of Front Royal and Warrenton reportedly could not get any gas over the weekend. The two Gulf stations, B&B Gulf on Rt. 211 and Baldwin’s Gulf in Washington, are receiving 80 percent and 75 percent. respectively, of normal gas allotments. Both have cut operating hours, though for different reasons. B&B is now closed on Sundays, and will cut back a few hours every evening in an attempt to keep gas in stock. Baldwin’s will continue providing gas as long as supplies last. “We're just going out and pumping till we run out. We’re not determining who should have it and who shouldn’t,” said Clarence Baldwin. Mike Cave, chief mechanic at B&B, has observed that people seem to be driving just Independence DayCelebration Mr. and Mrs. William Carrigan of Washington have issued their annual invitation to Rappahannock County for an Independence Day Celebration at Avon Hall. The public is invited to enjoy the evening of the Fourth, the 203rd anniversary of Independence, on the grounds at Avon Hall where foot races and other events will be held for the youngsters, space exhibits from NASA will be featured and the evening will be r~ climaxed with a fireworks display. Mr. Carrigan said, “After spending the day in the Town of Washington at the annual crafts exhibits and sales, book sales, antique auto show, chorus and dance presentations, and other varied events, bring a picnic if you haven’t already attended the barbecue and relax.” According to Mr. Carrigan, more details will be spelled out in the next issue of the newspaper. as must as before, but that the tourists who come through are stopping to top off their tanks. Merrill Motor Company in Washington, Jenkins Exxon in Amissville, and Sperryville Exxon on Rt. 211 in Sperryville are receiving approximately 75 per cent of the gas they had at this time last year. All three stations have been forced to cut back on business: Merrill closing when the pumps get very low, Jenkins shutting three hours earlier than previously, and Sperryville Exxon closing earlier in the evening, too. Both Jenkins and Sperryville Exxon have been completely out of gas due to the shortage, and Jenkins was out of fuel this past weekend. Merrill Motors and Sperryville Exxon both report that there has been a certain amount of topping off, by both local drivers and tourists. Baldwin’s West End Shell in Sperryville on Rt. 211 would not give out any information. When asked what precentage of their normal allotment they are receiving, Mrs. Cecil Baldwin replied, “We wouldn’t want to advertise that.” She also said that they have not had to cut back on their hours at all, nor have they had to impose any kind of a minimum of maximum purchase ruling. Both Eddie Sutphin’s Citgo on Rt. 211 and Richard Settle’s Garage in Flint Hill have only 80 percent of their normal gas stock. Sutphin says that he hasn’t been selling less than about $5 or S6 worth of gas at a time, and Settle has been limiting customers to a $5 purchase. Settle went on to say that he will have to start cutting his business hours, even though he has noted that local trade has slowed down to some degree.

The bloodmobile broke down in Gainesville and couldn’t be repaired in time to reach the Trinity Church parking lot in Washington before evening. The Bloodmobile will be rescheduled for early August with the exact date to be announced later. Red Cross volunteers urge all donors who signed pledge cards for June 14, particularly the 16 seniors from Rappahannock County High School, to give on the new date. GAS LINES HAVE APPEARED in small proportions ip Rappahannock as the fuel situation tightens. This double line was at Hillsdale Service Station on Route 211 east of Washington. i Old Mill Rezoning Postponed By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock News Staff Writer The Rappahannock Planning Commission wasted a public hearing on Wednesday. After listentening to almost two hours of testimony at the June 13 session on Peter Kramer’s request for rezoning the old Washington mill property, the Planners were forced to delay action due to errors in the public notice advertising the hearing. “What the Planning Commission voted to advertise is not what was advertised and not what you’re asking for,” Planner E. P. Luke told Kramer. The Planners voted at their May 16 meeting to advertise a rezoning from agriculture to commercial for public hearing. The ad, however, as it appeared in The Rappahannock News, stated the rezoning was from flood plain to commercial. The Planning Commission’s decision to delay came after a thorough presentation by Kramer that addressed issues of sewage disposal, water supply and parking and attempted to answer questions on what portion of the property lies in flood plain. Kramer, his wife Joyce and Mr. and Mrs. Joel Fisher are contract buyers, contingent upon commercial rezoning, v<ft>r the 3.9 acre tract at the outskirts of Washington that includes the old mill and abandoned snack bar. “My principal interest is restoring the old mill,” said Kramer. “I’m not really buying it because of its business potential. I’m buying it because it’s an old building and I have a thing about restoring old buildings. ” He added that he intended to use the restored mill for a combination restaurantstudio-antique shop. Kramer noted that the advertisement for the June 13 public hearing stated the rezoning was from flood plain to commercial. “That’s not what my application requested,” he said. According to Kramer, when he first submitted the rezoning request he was told by Zoning Administrator Evan McNear that the tract was zoned agriculture. One week later, McNear informed him that he couldn’t have the rezoning, that McNear couldn’t accept his application, because the old mill building was located in flood plain, Kramer said. Pencil Mark “When I questioned how he knew it was in flood plain, Welfare Budget Cut The Rappahannock News incorrectly reported in last week’s issue that the Board of Supervisors had not cut the Welfare Department’s funding request, as printed in the preliminary county budget for 1979-80. The Supervisors reduced the Welfare budget by $9,290—the approximate salary of one additional social worker. The cut brings the total public assistance budget to $171,988, a decrease of $7,950 from the current year. “I am concerned about the county’s decreasing support,” stated Welfare Department Director Elizabeth Buntin. "It will make any future increase look bad by comparison, especially with inflation,” she said. The Supervisors will take final action on Welfare expenditures and the rest of the county’s budget for 197980 following a public hearing scheduled for Friday, June 22, at 10 a.m. in the court house. he told me it had been pointed out to him,” Kramer continued. “He didn’t tell me who did it. Whoever did also put the pencil point in,” said Kramer drawing the Planners’ attention to a pencil mark on the official zoning map one-sixteenth of an inch into the Rush River flood plain—allegedly at the spot where the mill is located. Kramer said he subsequently rewrote the public hearing notice to read that the proposed rezoning was from agriculture to commercial excluding flood plain land except the portion of the property on which the building sits. Then, Kramer reported, he received a second call from McNear a week after changing the advertisement. This time, McNear insisted that the ad state the rezoning was from flood plain to commercial, basing his position on consultations with Planning Commission chairman Herbert Barksdale and Commonwealth’s Attorney George Davis, Kramer said. Kramer offered three proofs to the Planners that the old mill building isn’t in flood plain. He produced a survey done by County Engineer Fanning Baumgardner in which Baumgardner transferred lines from Rappahannock’s flood plain map to Kramer's certified survey map. Kramer maintained that Baumgardner’s map showed the mill building sitting just outside the flood plain. He also gave the Planners a letter from District Soil Conservationist Bill Adams. After on-site analysis and observation, Adams wrote that the mill "appears to be very near to the edge of the flood plain.” Adams added that “perhaps its eastern wall could be considered the boundary of the flood plain.” As his third proof. Kramer presented original photos ol the county’s flood plain maps obtained from Salt Lake City, Utah. With a magnifying glass, Kramer noted, it can be seen that the line designating flood plain “goes right over the building . . . Most of the building sits outside of the flood plain side of the line," he said. Withstood Floods For 150 Years Pointing out that the old mill had been designed and built to withstand floods, Kramer gave the Planners copies of maps drawn in 1821 and 1866 which show structures known first as (Continued on Page 8) —Rappahannock News Photo/Sarah Latham FUTURE RESTAURANT? Years of neglect have left Washington’s old mill to the ravages of weather, vandals and creeping vegetation. Peter Kramer’s plans to restore the building are contingent upon commercial rezoning that will be considered at a Planning Commission public hearing on July 3 before action by the Board of Supervisors on July 5. Surplus School Funds Allocated By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer At their June 12 meeting, Rappahannock School Board members agreed on a list of projects to receive top priority for funding with money left over from the current budget. “I’ve never been a believer in balloon spending at the end of the fiscal year but it appears that all the expenditures either are needed or are a good investment,” remarked board member Paul Nichols. The fiscal year ends June 30. Without specific authorization from the Board of Supervisors, funds left over in the current fiscal year’s school budget cannot be carried over to the 1979-80 school year and must instead be returned to the county’s general fund. According to Superintendent William Bloomer, aproximately $50,000 was unspent and uncommitted as of June 12. Categories with a substantial balance include teacher salaries and summer school. The surplus in salaries results from replacing experienced teachers with first or second “Pay-Out” Meeting The Rappahannock School Board will hold its final “pay out” meeting on Tuesday, June 26, at 7:30 p.m. in the elementary school library. At the last session in the current fiscal year, the School Board will make a final determination on what projects to fund with money left over from the 1978-79 budget. .. b t year teachers who are at the bottom of the pay scale. The reserve in summer school comes from sales tax revenues that the Supervisors allowed to be carried over last year. By a three or two vote, the School Board agreed to set its own priorities on funding projects. Board members Paul Nichols and Arthlinda Quaintance were opposed, suggesting instead that Superintendent Bloomer decide where the money should be spent. The Board members unanimously ranked furniture (including desks, for the music department, home economics tables, storage cabinets, kindergarten trays and racks), roofing, painting and heating controls for the elementary school building and purchase of special education tests as top prioity. In addition, they agreed unanimously to purchase oil. gas and coal to fill bins and tanks before the cloe of the fiscal year and to pay for text books and art supplies ordered for next year, with this year’s left over money. Bloomer noted that the books and supplies had already arrived from the manufacturers. In a split vote, with Walter Masterson and Alan Stokes opposed, the board also gave priority to reimbursing both the elementary and high school for extra supplies, paying for four days of secretarial assistance to complete special education forms and reimbursing the high school athletic department for the cost of the new chain link fence around the baseball field. The board postponed action on ranking purchase of furniture tor three tailers as a priority item until after the Supervisors take final action on approving the modular units included in the 1979-80 school budget. In another split vote, with Masterson opposed, the board agreed to make an earlier payment from this year’s school budget on the first installment in reimbursing Piedmont Regional School for capital outlay costs. (The board has committed itself to repay $26,000 over a ten year period at no interest.) In response to suggestions from Stokes and board chairman Beverly Massie that insulation, storm doors and new water coolers for the high school be added to the project list, Bloomer advised waiting for the last quarter’s sale tax revenue payment before deciding on additional expenditures. ‘‘If the payment is as favorable as last year’s, we will be able to take care of all the items on the list plus those suggested by the board,” Bloomer added. The board voted unanimously to ask the Supervisors to authorize carry-over funds for the maintenance projects and for two school buses that have been ordered but which won’t arrive in time to be paid for out of the current budget before July 1. Energy Conservation Plan Dr. Bloomer presented the School Board with an energy conservation plan drawn up at the board's request in response to the current fuel shortages. The plan calls for: —installment of thermostat controls for heating (Continued on Page 2) ' f *

Bloomer noted that field tHps during the last month of school had been cancelled *as well as trips by the activity bus. He added that administrative travel had also been reduced. These steps were necessary, he explained.

He proposed that the energy conservation plan be reviewed in August “because fcy then, we’ll be able tc determine how much of the energy crisis is real versus imaginary.” "I’d like to see some figures attached to the plan,” said Masterson. “How much gas, coal and oil are we using and at what cost? We’re talking about dollars and conservation both,” he added. The board voted unanimously to approve the conservation plan and authorize an energy audit, with review of the plan scheduled for the August board meeting.

The same company is currently handling the high school’s heating system under a maintenance contract for quarterly payments of $250. Including the elementary school will bring the cost to $872 per quarter. “Once the system is updated (including an air dryer hooked into pneumatic controls and calibration or replacement of thermostats), the payment will take care of all emergency calls and replacements to keep the system in top flight condition, said Bloomer. He reported that Honeywell representatives had estimated heating cost savings of 20 to 30 percent with the contract. “I think it will pay for itself in terms of energy that can be saved through efficient operation of the buildings,” said the superintendent. Both Schools Accredited In an update on accreditation standings, Bloomer reported that the elementary school had been fully accredited and the high school accredited and advised with three deficiencies for the current year. According to Bloomer, the three deficiencies at RCHS were charged for (1) three teachers instructing outside i of their area of endorsement (2) two teachers instructing more than one class in the same period and (3) lack of sufficient storage space. Bloomer noted that the two ! teachers with more than one class were Don Bomberger who instructs Art I and II with 20 students and Carol Goff who instructs office practice and shorthand with 13 students. Of the three teachers teaching outside their area of endorsement, one has completed the required course work but did not record the classes properly. The second will not be returning to teach at RCHS next year and the third has a master’s degree but must teach a specified number of hours to earn endorsement. Assistant Superintendent Rob McDaniel reported that 81 ninth graders took the minimum competency exams required by the state this spring. Of that nummber, 73 passed the mathematics portion and 72 passed the reading portion with scores of 70 or above. Of the 19 tenth graders retested after' failing the competency exam given last fall, four failed reading and five failed mathematics. “How does the second test compare to the first?” asked Mrs. Massie. Reading Scores Scaled “According to the state, the second test was more difficult,” McDaniel replied, adding that the reading test had been scaled upwards. He recalled that the reading scores had been scaled to bring 59 percent up” to a passing grade of 70 percent after computer analysis. In action on capital outlay proposals returned to the School Board by the Supervisors for detailed financial breakdown and alternatives, the board formally voted to hire county Engineer Fanning Baumgardner to work with a committee made up of two Supervisors and school Board members Beverly Massie and Alan Stokes. After returning from executive session, the board approved contracts for four new teachers: — Dawn Katherine Gehringer from Flint Hill, a first year graduate of VPI, for elementary school, —Tina Tracy Neyhart, first year graduate of UVa, for upper elementary, — Michael Anderson Kimble, first year graduate of St. Paul’s College, for social studies and coach ot track and cross country, . —Robert Adair Edmonson, graduate of James Madison University with a year’s teaching experience in Franklin County, for physical education and coach of basketball and baseball.

Abbitt—Moore Vows Exchanged i ne wedding of Miss Mary Denson Abbitt, daughter of Mr and Mrs. John David Abbitt, Jr. of Franklin, and David Martin Moore, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Tansey Moore of Winchester, was solemnized Saturday, June 16, 1979, at noon in the Franklin Baptist Church. smmm % MRS. DAVID M. MOORE 'Heal cEstate REALTY WORLDa Q)a REALTOR mm FINANCING INCOME-PROPERTY It you are contemplating the purchase of income property, the question of how large a mortgage loan you should have will undoubtedly arise. Those who specialize in this type of real estate, almost to a man, go on the philosophy that income property should be purchased with as large a mortgage as possible - provided the property yields enough net income to meet mortgage payments. From the standpoint of investment analysis, it can be shown that this policy usually gives the greatest capital gain, the largest amount of tax-free in come, and the largest percentage of investment return. In no other investment do you have the opportunity to use leverage (a small percentage of your money to a great percentage of another’s) like you do in real estate. So, the larger the mortgage loan, the further your own money will go. If there is anything we can do to help you in the field of real estate, please phone or drop in at EILEEN M.

Firstly, there is no installation charge and they are easily removed for cleaning. Also, rugs can be turned around on the floor for longer life. Another plus is that rugs can be removed in the summer or whenever the cool look of bare floor is desired. In the case of area-sized rugs particularly, there are exciting design possibilities. Rugs are also readily adaptable to a new home. Don’t be reluctant to mix colors and textures and antique and contemporary styling.

THURSDAY, JUNE 21,1979 Don’t Panic v'ur neignDornooa gas stations nave less fuel to sell their customers. That’s a fact. Whether this gas shortage is real or whether it has been deliberately created by the corporate giants to swell the bulging oil company coffers makes no difference to the little people. There’s less gas at the pumps for us to buy. That’s the bottom line. Here in Rappahannock, we’re getting a taste of the inconveniences faced by gas starved motorists in California, Texas and Northern Virginia. Our local service stations have been cut back by anywhere from 10 to 30 percent of normal fuel supply. As a result, operators have been forced to reduce hours and impose maximum purchases. But there’s no' crisis in our county and there need not be if folks react sensibly. It’s possible for most families to reduce their gasoline needs by 20 percent without suffering hardship. Neighbors can carpool to jobs, to the swimming pool and to town for shopping expeditions. Trips to the grocery store can be combined with a stop at the drugstore, laundry, department store and dentist or doctor’s office. Through planning and cooperation, mileage and gas consumption can be reduced substantially, leaving enough fuel to go around at Rappahannock gas pumps. It would be shameful to see a repeat performance here of the scenes that took place in Fauquier County over the weekend. In Warrenton, police were called in to break up lines and protect gas station operators who had to close when fuel ran out. Irate motorists trapped one owner in his station office and banged on the windows until he phoned the police for help. Rappahannock people pride themselves on the peace and tranquility to be found in their county. With effort, we can keep it peaceful—even in the face of “no gas” signs. By learning to get by with a little less, well have enough for all. Wakefield School Awards Wakefield Country Day School in Huntly held is annual closing exercises on Tuesday, 12 June.

Gen. Hugh M. Exton. All in all, more than $1900 was donated to the cause by 567 persons. A small percentage of this Painting Donated Artist Marie Pietri of Woodville has given a beautiful painting for the July 4th celebration in Washington whcih will be given away at four o’clock that day. The picture will be on display at Rappahannock County Library in Washington. The artist as she is known in this county is Mrs. Jack Kilpatrick who is also a sculptor. sum was contributed by mail, but the vast majority of donors (4%) made their gifts through the door-to-door workers. The co-ordinator of these volunteers was Mrs. Mary J. Jordan of Flint Hill who brought in 222 members and more than $624 herself. Another outstanding volunteer was Mrs. Roberta Jackson of Boston who brought in 169 members and in excess of $525. The remaining members were enrolled by the following workers: Mrs. Rachel Aylor, Mrs. Marilyn Bailey, Mrs. Charlotte Freeman, and Mrs. Mable Glasker of Washington; Mrs. Bessie Grigsby of Sperryville; Mrs. Mary Lee Frye of Huntly. “It is hoped that people who RALEP To Celebrate July 4th RALEP, the litter-eating dinosaur, will be one of the special visitors at the fourth of July celebration in Washington. The Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection will have RALEP ready to devour aluminum cans of all sizes and shapes as part of RLEP’s county clean-up campaign. Community groups, including the Lions Club, Women’s Club, Rappahannock County High School students, Garden Club, Boy Scout Troops and 4-H clubs, have already volunteered to support the project by collecting aluminum cans from the roadsides. Other interested organizations and individuals can pick up plastic bags for the clean-up at the fire houses in Washington, Flint Hill, Sperryville, Chester Gap, Castleton and Amissville on Saturday, June 30. Clear plastic bags will be provided for aluminum cans. RLEP oeganizers of the antilitter campaign emphasize that the clear plastic bags are for aluminum cans only. Most aluminum cans are soft, lightweight, light colored, cast as a single unit without seams. Many are stamped with a notation that reads “All-Aluminum can.” If collectors are in doubt, cans that may not be aluminum shouldn’t be included in the clear plastic bags. If RALEP’s feeders ar® successful in gathering enough aluminum “food” for the litter-eater, Reynolds Aluminum Corporation will send a truck from Richmond to pick up the haul. If sufficient quantities to make the trip worth while aren’t turned in, the aluminum will be taken to a local re-cycling center. RALEP will be waiting for his dinner at the New Washington fire house parking lot on July 4th. Start collecting aluminum cans now so he won’t leave disappointed and hungry. Services Discontinued Worship services at Washington United Methodist Church have been temporarily discontinued and members may, if they wish, attend services at the Flint Hill United Methodist Church. The Flint Hill schedule is morning worship at 11:15 on the first and fourth Sundays of each month, 9 a.m. on second Sundays and no service on the third Sundays. Sunday School is held every Sunday at 10 a.m. The Little Fox f11' have not yet joined will continue to send in con-* tributions until the end of the year,” said Exton. “The Red Cross Chapter also thanks the people who volunteered to help with the Bloodmobile, as well as those who pledged donations of blood at the scheduled visit of the Bloodmobile on June 14th. Unfortunately, the Bloodmobile broke down in Gainesville on its way from Washington, D.C., and never arrived. The Red Cross apologizes for this failure and hopes to reschedule the visit in August,” he added. Rev. Joseph T. Carson Carson Assumes Post The Rev. Joseph T. Carson, Jr., will move to Charlottesville this week to begin his appointment as Charlottesville District Superintendent of The United Methodist Church. His appointment, announced earlier this spring by Bishop W. Kenneth Goodson, became official during the concluding sessions of the Virginia Annual Conference last week in Roanoke. Carson succeeds the Rev. William A. Wright, Jr., who was appointed executive secretary of the Board of Pensions and associate director of Ministerial Services in the Conference Council on Ministries. Wright, whose office and residence will be in Richmond, had held the superintendent’s appointment for four years. „ The Charlottesville District, which extends from Culpeper to Monroe and from Mineral to the crest of the Blue Ridge Mountains, contains 100 churches and 46 appointments. Letters To The Editor Ambiguous Answers To the editor: I have recently posed twc questions at public meetings to which I have received ambiguous answers. Perhaps a discussion in public would help to resolve these questions. The first was directed to the Town Council of Washington. It concerned the lack of definition of the limits of the Town. Washington has existed since 1833 without defined boundaries as far as I can tell. With the recent advent of the county’s Zoning Ordinance, we now have two jurisdictions where different rules apply. In order to be fair to all parties concerned, an attempt should be made to fix limits on the town so that people cannot circumvent the county zoning ordinance by claiming their property is in town, and vice versa. My second question concerns zoning administration in the county. Since I am not sure where the town jurisdiction ends, I am concerned about any zoning changes in properties close to the town. At a recent public hearing the applicant applied for one change, the Zoning Administrator advertised for something different and the Planning Commission ' notified the adjacent landowners of still something else. My question is this, should not one person (preferably the administrator) be in charge of the whole process? If he is in charge, then why the discrepancies, and if he is not, then who is in charge? A great deal of confusion seems to have arisen at the same recent hearing due to the fact that physical changes have occurred in the county due to the expansion of Route 211. I would like to suggest that the zoning maps be brought up to date so as to reflect the current status of affected properties. My requests are designed only to standardize zoning in the county and hopefully eliminate confusion as to who may^ do what and where. Thahk’ ’’you for this opportunity to discuss problems concerning us all. C. N. MANSON Support Appreciated To the editor: We would like to thank all of the 270 people who joined with us in signing the petition supporting the first capital outlay proposal for an addition at the Rappahannock County High School. This proposal included ten classrooms, expanded facilities for library, restrooms, cafeteria, office and storage space, a greenhouse and horticulture classroom. As we stated in the petition, we believe our children’s future depends upon the educational background they receive in the county school system and should be the highest priority on the list of county funding.' This petition was given J. Richard Latham, Supervisor for Jackson District, with a copy to Mrs. Beverly Massie, the school board representative for that district. We would like to urge all of you whom we did not see to join with us in supporting the proposed building program by calling or writing one or both of the above representatives for our district. Our elected and appointed officials can only represent us if we make our views known. So act today! Call or write. Our schools and county needs you. We are grateful for all the encouragement and support we have already received. CONCERNED PARENTS of Jackson District Slop Bullying To the editor: It is time for people to stop bullying the administration of Rappahannock County High School. Instead, this community should learn to work with them. There are a limited number of parents who are always willing to help the school in any capacity. Right now a Board of Supervisors is trying to decide how much money should be used to “improve” the high school; however, money alone will not help. What is needed is a community with a positive attitude toward the administration, faculty and students. I definitely agree that student respect is necessary. This respect for property and for others cannot be taught completely at school, though. Excluding after-school activities, teachers see their students approximately 50 minutes each day for ten months. The administration is hardly able to come into constant contact with students any more than this. Thus, the burden falls upon everyone in this community to teach the children respect for all things. But can you really expect high school students to “look up” to those who publicly accuse the administration of not having respect for their own school property? How can anyone hope to find guidance in those who ‘‘foretell” the students' future and have no respect in their standards or values? 1 find it insulting that someone feels students will “wind up in the pool hall, snorting Canadian whiskey, and doing dope.” Personally I have far more respect for my former students. It is age-old advice, but county citizens need to stop complaining and begin working with the school. The administration, faculty, and students need your respect—show them that you care. KIMBERLY S. WOODS Public Apology To the editor: I would, at this time r.ke to publicly express my sincere apologies to several people (they, of course, know who they are). I partook in the spreading of several untrue rumors, and am truly sorry for any embarrassment they may have suffered. I have truly learned a valuable lesson. Again, my apologies. ORA COWGILL Gas Crunch (Continued from Page 1) receiving about 70 percent of its usual allotment of gas, Hackley’s Store in Amissville - also a Texaco outlet - has only 75 percent from its distributor, and H&J Texaco on Rt. 231 is currently receiving 80 percent of its normal amount. Country Manor and Hackley’s Store are imposing S5 maximum purchase restrictions on their pumps, and H&J has a S3 requirement on its gas. Country Manor and H&J have found that traffic is much less heavy, particularly during the week, but Hackley’s has a lot of gas traffic and they were out of fuel last week, according to Graham Hackley. Old Hollow Arco on Rt. 211 has also had its allotment cut, and for a while-about a month and a half ago- was receiving no gas at all. Mrs. Donald Keithley says that they have no minimum or maximum policy, but will probably have to have one soon. She also reports that the weekend trade was good. There have been reports of out-of-state distributors offering to supply stations in this area with gas at 99 cents a gallon. However, none of the stations contacted by The Rappahannock News reported being approached.

Buses To Get “Stop Arms” School buses ordered after July 1 will be equipped with special “stop” signs to prevent traffic from passing while students are getting on and off vehicles at scheduled stops, the Department of Educations said today. The red octagonal sign—called a stop arm—will be installed on the left side of the bus near the front and will extend outward as the bus stops. The sign will have flashing lights and the word “stop” in white letters. Buses already in use will be equipped with the warning device in order of need as established by the locality. Cost per bus will be about $100. The Board of Education authorized use of the signs as a means of reducing the number of student injuries and fatalities at bus stops. School buses traveled 76,004,967 miles in 1977-78 and carried 760,849 public school students daily. Between 1976-77 and 1977-78, injuries rose from 7 to 12 and fatalities from 0 to 1. '« /r'"\ Old Mill Rezoning Postponed (Continued from Page 1) Mrs. Colbert’s bftill and second as Jett’s Mill Kramer maintained the property could still be rezoned to commercial even if the old mill is determined to be located in a flood plain. “There’s nothing in the zoning ordinance to prevent commercial zoning in a flood plain,” he said, citing (1) businesses in the town of Sperryville that are located in flood plain and (2) portions of the Harris Hollow ski area property classified as flood plain and zoned commercial. In further support of his rezoning request, Kramer read a resolution passed by the Washington Town Council, approving the concept of the old mill restoration. Kramer had answers ready for questions posed since he first submitted his rezoning application. In regard to water supply, he reported that he’d already received a well permit from the Health Department. As for parking, Kramer said there is an existing parking area in front of the mill. In addition, he said, a driveway can be brought down parallel with Route 211 to the mill’s lower, flood plain level. Kramer added that cutting trees from the flood plain to clear an unpaved area for parking would increase rather than decrease the ground’s ability to absorb water. In Flood Plain The Rappahannock County Zoning Ordinance prohibits sewage disposal systems in a flood plain or within 50 feet of a flood plain boundary. According to Kramer, this prohibition will not affect his plans for sewage disposal at the old mill. Kramer said he proposed to pump wastes up to tanks and septic field behind the snack bar—well over 50 feet from the flood plain boundary. He added that he’d checked with Maury Biddle, chairman of the county’s Water and Sewer Authority, for an opinion on what constitutes a sewage disposal system. According to Kramer, Biddle said that lines carrying waste from the mill to the tanks and field would not be included in the definition of sewage disposal system. Kramer explained that he is in a “Catch 22” situation with his sewage plans as far as the Health Department is concerned. He said he’d been informed by Health Department personnel that they couldn’t give him an opinion on approval or disapproval unless first provided with a specific proposal for a sewage disposal system. In addition, they require that the property be rezoned to commercial before considering any plans, according to Kramer. If his sewage disposal plans aren’t approved after the property is rezoned commercial, Kramer said he would use the mill for retail sales—a use that wouldn’t require bathroom facilities and sewage system. In conclusion, Kramer stated that the deterioration of the mill needed to be stopped before the building falls to the ground. “I don’t WINDWOOD FARM Situated in the shadow of Red Oak Mountain is a beautifully secluded 50 acre jewel.

I think the building has to have a use,” he said, justifying his request for commercial zoning. “To me, the overall question is that it’s an historic building that should be saved.” Frank Skowronski asked Kramer what plans he had for the strip of old mill property that adjoins Skowronski’s land. “I plan to leave it as it is now,” Kramer replied. Legal Notice? Planner E. P. Luke questioned the legality of the notice printed in The Rappahannock News, advertising Wednesday’s public hearing. Kramer responded that he’d tried to have the advertisement changed back to the original wording approved by the Planning Commission. He noted, however, that Barksdale and Davis insisted the rezoning notice state flood plain to commercial rather than agriculture to commercial. Kramer reported that McNear had told him the rezoning application would be amended at the Planning Commission’s public hearing. If mistakes in the required advertisement require the public hearing to be postponed for another month, the delay will be a burden, said Kramer. He also questioned the propriety of relying on the Commonwealth Attorney for legal advice on this issue since Davis is an adjoining landowner to the old mill property. “That’s bad,” agreed Luke. “If he’s trying to stop this by delay, it’s not fair to Col. Holmes (current owner of the mill property) or the buyers,” Kramer maintained. “But if it (the rezoning advertisement) is not done correctly, then any decision we make could be upset in court,” countered Planner Newbill Miller. “I don’t think we could make a recommendation based on the existing notification. I think d it needs to be readvertised,” Miller said. “The ad’s been running for two weeks. Why didn’t you say something before now?” asked Joyce Kramer. “I didn’t have all the stuff in front of me. Then I found out there’s been all this jockeying back and forth,” Luke answered. County Landmark “The mill is one of the few landmarks we have left and he definitely would save it,” interjected Virginia Miller Lindstrom, Washington resident and officer of the county Historical Society. “It’s a landmark as a mill, not as a restaurant,” remarked Commonwealth’s Attorney and adjoining landowner George Davis. “What Peter’s done in the past has been an asset to the community, not a detriment,” countered Mrs. Lindstrom. Restating his application at the planners’ request, Kramer said he wanted commercial zoning on the property to extend from the snack bar to the edge of the flood plain, “including any portion of the building that’s in the flood plain and nothing else.” The Planners agreed to hold another public hearing Tuesday, July 3, at 7:30 p.m. in the court house—in time to make a recommendation before the Supervisors’ hearing on July 5—and to readvertise the hearing using Kramer’s wording. "I didn’t intend to speak out . . . but since I’ve been misquoted, in all fairness to me, I’ll have to,” announced Commonwealth’s Attorney Davis from the audience. He reported that notice of the rezoning he’d received as an adjoining landowner said the old mill snack bar was being considered for rezoning from agriculture to commercial. “I wanted to know why, since the snack bar was already commercial Davis explained. He said that Kramer had told. him the request included the old mill and all of the 3.9 acres west and east of the Rush River.

REALTY WORLD 675 3485 937-5573 According to Davis, most of the land described by Kramer is currently zoned flood plain, not agriculture. Stating in the advertisement that the rezoning request was from agriculture to commercial was “misleading the public,” Davis charged. He’d advised changing the ad, he said, because he wanted “the public to be accurately informed and not mislead.” “What was corrected was not what we voted on,” remarked Luke. “The Planning Commission agreed to advertise a rezoning of 3.97 acres from agriculture to commercial. The ad didn’t reflect what the Planning Commission approved,” agreed Miller. “But it’s all been resolved. We’ll readvertise and hold another public hearing in July.” Charlie Manson asked who was to blame for the mix-up in the legal advertisement. “I’m not sure it can be i—ay — ■ v k v T restricted to one person and I don’t know. It wasn’t me, I can say that,” Miller replied.
