Rappahannock News, February 7, 1980

VA. 2.3210 PAID CIRCULATION NOW 2,568 RAPPAHANNOCK HOUSEHOLDS 2,101 The County Family Newspaper Founded 1877 31st YEAR, No. 6 USPS 45558C 8 Pages THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 7,1980 Washington, Virginia Phone 673-3349 20' Goode Subdivision Wins Final Okay By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock New* Staff Writer In September, 1976, C. L. Goode applied to the Rappahannock County Planning Commission for approval of a 15-lot, five acre development located just outside Flint Hill. Three and a half years later, on January 24, 1980, Circuit Court Judge Carlton Penn of Leesburg signed an order that removed the final roadblock to Goode’s revised development plan. Details of the agreement drawn up by attorneys representing the county and Goode remain secret. Judge Penn okayed the deal worked out by the lawyers but directed the decree sealed with “contents thereof not to be disclosed except by further order of this court.” "No comment. The order speaks for itself,” was the response to the sealing from Waugh Crigler, Culpeper attorney who represents the county in the litigation. Claude Compton, Goode’s Manassas lawyer, could not be reached by phone and failed to return calls placed to his office. Goode’s subdivision application was turned down by Rappahannock’s zoning administrator, planning commission and board of | supervisors in 1977, 1978 and i 1979, primarily on grounds < that each lot in the ] development did not contain < Five acres under 14 per cent < slope as required by county < ordinances. '< Goode appealed the denials to circuit court but repeatedly asked for continuances in the case. To date, the county’s legal bill, including fees for an expert planning consultant, totals $8,634. After redesigning the layout several times, Goode finally came up with a plan for a 13-lot subdivision with each lot containing five full acres under 14 per cent slope. According to E. P. Luke, chairman of the Rappahannock supervisors, this latest subdivision proposal is essentially the compromise approved by Penn. Luke said the 77-acre tract will be designated “residential subdivision” on the county’s zoning map, in effect rezoning the land from its former agricultural classification. “This was settled months ago by agreement between the two parties,” Luke acknowledged in a telephone interview on Tuesday. “The outcome is Mr. Goode has Planners Stress Maintenance Preventive maintenance on secondary roads, not new construction or rebuilding existing roads, will be stressed in the draft of Rappahannock’s comprehesive plan’s chapter on transporation. “The pendulum of importance...has swung towards the primary roads, rather than the secondary roads,” stated planner Newbill Miller at Tuesday’s meeting. In the comprehensive plan, he suggested including a statement stressing “preventive maintenance and correct engineering techniques” to counter balance the highway department’s shift in emphasis to the primary road system. Miller’s proposal came in response to a recommendation from John Capelle, executive director of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District Commission. Capelle first suggested that improvements covered in Rappahannock’s six-year road plan be recorded in the text of the comprehensive plan “as what the county would like to see completed.” In the six year plan, the highway department talks about roads “they can completely fix,” Miller replied. “We’re talking about maintenance,, not rebuilding roads,” he said, adding that the priorities in the six-year plan are not necessarily the same priorities that the planning commision sees. "The six-year plan is already a fact,’’ Miller continued, noting that it has been accepted by both the county supervisors and the state highway department. The six-year secondary road plan should be put in the comprehenrive plan as what IS going to happen, not what the planners want to have happen, he added. “Some of these secondary roads need engineering expertise as much as they need maintenance,” stated planner Walter Masterson. He said that tons and tons of gravel have been wasted by being dumped on roads that were poorly engineered in the first place. In addition, he said, there are instances of the highway department spending $50,000 in one shot on repairs on a section of road that has had no maintenance work for five (Continued on Page 3) lis subdivision. With acres in :ach lot under 14 per cent lope, he’s in strict com)liance with the zoning >rdinances. We have no :hoice but to approve it,” the upervisor chairman concluded. Run-Away Dump Truck Madeline Ann Metcalf of Annandale lost control of the 1975 Ford she was driving Saturday night, struck a guardrail and then hit a culvert in the median of Route 211 west of Nfassies Comer, according to Trooper H. A. Newlin. The officer cited her for driving under the influence and reckless driving. Susan Jenkins of Washington, operating a 1979 Ford, struck and killed a deer February 2 at 1 a.m. on Route 211 west of Sperryville. Newlin also investigated this collision. Jenkins sustained minor injuries, he said. A truck driver escaped serious injury last Thursday when he jumped from his vehicle as it coursed down the mountain just east of Panorama on Route 211. According to Trooper C. A. Moore, Robert Settle of Herndon was operating the 74 Kenilworth dump truck when the brakes failed. Moore said the driver attempted to pull off the highway and stop the runaway truck, and failing to halt it. Settle jumped out. The truck continued about a hundred feet further down an embankment and was totaled. Settle was treated at Page Memorial Hospital in Luray and released. Abductor Apprehended A 66 year old woman from Front Royal was abducted by a young man as she entered her automobile in the town Tuesday afternoon and was held captive for two hours, but was unharmed physically. The man, Lewis Michael Williams of Front Royal was apprehended later in the evening in Rappahannock County, according to Trooper C. A. Moore. Williams got into the car with the woman about 2:30 and told her to drive, which she did. Their travels bought them to the Huntly area of Rappahannock, said Moore. At one point the man insisted on driving and shortly thereafter he wrecked the car. He jumped from the vehicle and ran into the woods. This was two hours after the abduction. Williams was charged with abduction and reckless driving and released to Warren County officials. Moore, assisted by Troopers R. A. Baines and Lee Henderson and Deputies Steve Crossman, John Godlewski and E. W. Thompson II, searched the area. They were joined by Richard Burke of Huntly and later by Sgt. Streit, a metropolitan policeman who lives at Huntly. About 6:30 Streit found Williams and held him for action by Rappahannock officers, according to Moore who said the man was obviously on drugs and could not remember what had transpired.

Story on Page 4 ^ Rappahannock News Photo/Daphne Hutchinson HANGING FROM THE BATTLEMENTS—Rappahannock’s seventh graders were dead on their feet after three days of walking through history in Richmond, Williamsburg and Jamestown last weekend. Some were deader than others, though, as these jokesters illustrated. Ski Area To Open As Private Club The ski area in Harris Hollow is no longer for sale. According to Eric Adamson, Front Royal attorney and partner in the operation, the Rappahnnock slopes will open in December. 1980—“November, if there's snow"—as a private club. In a telephone interview on Tuesday. Adamson said that 1.400 memberships will be sold at $295 for the first in a family, $275 for the second and $255 for the third. “Skiing has become no fun around here because of the crowds." Adamson said. He estimated the number of skiers in the Washington. D. C. area at over 100,000. "About one out of every ten belongs to a ski club and there are ten clubs. The Washington Ski Club itself has 5.800 members.” he said. Adamson reported that he'd checked with most of the organizations in D. C. and Northern Virginia and found high interest in a private ski area. “There’s only one other area on the East Coast that used the club concept to my knowledge and it’s been very successful,” he added. Adamson is a general partner in Rapp Ski Limited, which will operate the Harris Hollow site as a joint venture with Pennsylvania's Camelback and a second unidentified ski area. Earlier proposals to turn the property into a yearround recreation center with skiing in the winter and a snowless Alpine slide in the summer have been dropped, according to Adamson. “We have no plans for an Alpine slide, not unless you’ve got half a million dollars you'd like to donate."Adamson ^oked. He noted that new snowmaking machinery will have to be brought in and all buildings refurbished before the private ski club can begin operations. No additional construction is planned except possibly an extension to the ski rental shed, according to Adamson A restaurant is currently the only support facility that will open with the slopes. Public Too On Saturday. Sunday and holidays, the ski area will be restricted to club members and their, guests. On weekdays and evenings. Aouever, the Harris Hollow slopes will be open to the general public. Adamson hopes that Rappahannock residents, in particular, will ski both as members and non-members. "We want to make this a local thing." he emphasized. “We've set a goal of 50 local ticket holders from each of the surrounding counties—Rappahannock. Fauquier. Culpeper and Warren."—D. Hutchinson. Seventh Graders Study Living History By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock New* Staff Writer My husband wrote it off to winter madness and a touch of boredom. “You want to go again? You’re craaazy.” My friends saw signs of a serious mental disturbance. “Mashochist! You went last year. Haven’t you learned .a lesson yet?” * I ignored them and continued to badger the seventh grade teachers until they agreed to let me chaperone the annual class trip two years in a row. I don’t have a martyr fixation. I thoroughly enjoyed last year’s expedition back through time to 18th century Williamsburg and 17th century Jamestown. This would be my last opportunity as the third and final son will move up to the high school next year. I couldn’t really justify asking him to repeat seventh grade just so I could gain added experience in my fledgling career as a semi-pro chaperone. Now that I have a few day.; perspective on the weekend and time to rest my aching feet. I’m doubly glad I went. As a group, the kids were better. In fact, they were better than better—they were superb. Without having to worry about the few bad apples that almost spoiled last year’s barrel, we were all able to notice more. And this year, there was more to see. We had several changes in aur itinerary, dropping the Phillip Morris plant and adding the Virginia Science Museum, the Wren Building af the College of William and Mary and an informal program of colonial music. Departure at 7 a.m. on January 25 was much easier to face on a Trailway than a school bus. Comparatively, it was the lap of luxury. We had foot rests, reclining seats, more room for the close-tomiddle-aged spread, luggage racks, a bathroom and individual, overhead limits. It’s surprising how much easier it is to enjoy a four hour bus ride with 36 twelve and thirteen-year-olds if you don’t have to carry a pile of cameras, lunch, flash attachments, coat, magazines, crossword puzzle books, clock radio, purse, gloves and scarf on your knees. The kids, their parents and seventh grade teachers Susan Henry, Lynne Baines and Becky Hawkins had to work extra hard to raise the $2,000 for the Trailways. From my stand point—or rather sitting point—it was definitely worth it. State Capitol In Richmond, we stopped first at the State Capitol. Delegate George Beard and an aide from State Senator Nathan Miller’s office said a few words but neither made much of an impression on the kids. Instead, they oohed and aahed at the Capitol Dome, its colors still vibrant after 200 years. They saved their admiration for busts of Virginia’s presidents and leaders, the statue of Robert E. Lee in the old House of Delegates’ meeting room and the life-sized statue of George Washington carved from a : single block of marble. The guides made an ex- j ception with the Rap- | pahannock youngsters, the 1 first of several special i privileges won by good < behavior, and took all 77 of ; us upstairs to see the por- i traits of past Virginia l governors that line the walls just outside Dalton’s office. i According to the Saturday Richmond papers, the current leader of the Commonwealth was meeting with legislators in his office the same morning we tiptoed up the steps. Their discussions on Dalton’s proposed gas tax weren’t disturbed by any shouts, squeals or chatter from our group. "Is the Governor really in there?” the kids whispered with big eyes, pointing toward Dalton’s office. > After the tour, we were escorted into the visitors gallery to see the House of Delegates in session. The seventh graders beamed with pride after Delegate Beard introduced our group and called for the kids to stand and be recognized. Everyone likes to feel important. The Virginia Museum of Virginia Tax Share $2700 Per Person Every man, woman, and child in Virginia will be liable to the federal government for more than $2700 in fiscal year 1981 if Congress adopts the federal spending budget proposed recently by President Carter. According to the Virginia State Chamber of Commerce, Virginia taxpayers bear 2.31 per cent of all federal taxes or approximately $14 billion of the $615.8 billion suggested by the President in his budget message to Congress. The per capita share for Virginians was based on a current Virginia populaton of 5,248,000. Virginia's share of the federal spending plan could be more or less, depending on the actions of Congress, which could either cut or expand on the Carter budget. The budget that is finally adopted will become operational on October 1, 1980, which is the beginning of the 1981 fiscal year. As a contrast to Virginia’s share of the one-year federal budget proposal, the two-year budget (1980-82) for Virginia as proposed by Governor Dalton and presented to the Virginia General Assembly would cost SI 1.5 billion. That is $2.5 billion less than Virginia’s share of the one- ^ yejfo federal budget proposal, Science, next stop of the morning, was a new addition to the class trip and a welcome break from the “Don’t Touch” and “Be Quiet” adominations required at most places we visited during the three days. Controlled confusion best describes the special “Discovery Room’* at the museum. With hordes of other students, our kids rushed to discover. They took turns generating electricity by pedaling bicycles hooked up to electric ights—a great idea for essening our dependence on Foreign oil if only we can tgure out a way to store ome of that youthful energy. Another big attraction was i telescope through which the Lids viewed scale models of he solar system and magined themselves as lommander Kirk and Doctor tpock leading the Enterprise o new worlds where no man las ever gone before. Tables of fossils and rocks Irew scores of fingers. Boys md girls rubbed talc, admired shiny black basalt and ieid purple crystals up to :atch the light. From shelves, they took boxes of touchable sxhibits—seas shells, minerals, semi-precious gems and pieces of pelt from Virginia’s defferent furbearing animals. Other exhibits let youngsters demonstrate principles of vibration by rubbing bows back and forth across plates of glass covered with sand. Hollywood hopefuls made their own movies, drawing figures on panels of paper and then watching reflections on mirrors as the drawings spun round and round in a centrifuge contraption. A pendulum arm drew intricate geometric patterns with a magic marker as knots of youngsters watched with rapt interest. At another display, kids looked on as a second pendulum created designs in sand. A corner of the main room was devoted to optica] illusions that taught the kids they can’t always trust the messages their eyes send their brains. Seventh graders took turns piling into a replica of a space capsule and learned first hand the cramped conditions that our astronauts endured hurtling through the unknown. Safety Valve The hour of freedom to make noise, run and handle exhibits at the Science Museum allowed the kids to let off steam they’d built up tiptoeing around the Capitol. After the "Discovery Room,” they were in a much better frame of mind for the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts where the rules of “Quiet” and “Don’t Touch” were back in force. Without all that pent-up, antsy energy, the kids could saunter through exhibit halls and enjoy art treasures, including Faberge eggs created for the czars of Russia, jewelry by Salvador Dali, a wrinkled Egyptian mummy thousands of years old and paintings by the great masters. After another hour on the buses to Williamsburg, we pulled into our motel to a chorus of “Wows!” Coming from rural Rappahannock (Continued on Page 3) Sharp Drop In Road Funds Predicted According to figures provided by the Virginia Department of Highways and Transportation, Rappahannock's highway dollars will shrink 58 per cent by 1983-84 if the General Assembly does not approve additional sources of revenue, specifically a four cents per gallon increase in the state gasoline tax. This year, Rappahannock received $432,000 in gas tax revenue from the state tor construction and improvement of the county’s secondary road system. Based on the latest revenue projection from current sources, the highway department estimates this funding will drop to $276,011 in 1980-81; $217,283 in 198182; $227,903 in 1982-83 and $185,592 in 1983-84. To offset the decline in gas tax revenues caused by a reduction in statewide consumption. Governor John Dalton supports an increase in the gas tax. If an increase of four cents per gallon is authorized, the highway department predicts that Rappahannock will get secondary road funds totalling $415,265 in 1980-81; $365,357 in 1981-82; $367,742 in 1982-83 and $334,052 in 1983-84. With the additional four cents per gallon tax, Rappahannock should receive an estimated 30 per cent less secondary road money, compared to funding in 197980. Without the four cent jump, according to the highway department’s figures, the county will get 58 per cent 1ms. V

Warner, who made official visits to about half of Robinson Has Good Record Congressman J. Kenneth Robinson maintained his high attendance record in the U. S. House of Representatives with a 99.3 per cent voting score in the first session of the 96th Congress, according to the official tally. With both votes and quorum calls included, the record compiled by the Clerk of the House showed that Robinson voted in the House Chamber on all but five of 758 roll calls last year. He was absent from two quorum calls and three yea and nay votes during the entire year, and voted 100 per cent of the time when recorded votes were taken. Piedmont Nursing Class Applications are currently being accepted for the Piedmont Technical Education Center nursing class which is scheduled to begin in late August, 1980. Since several steps are involved in the acceptance procedure, it is recommended that interested persons begin the process immediately. Adults of any age as well as high school juniors or seniors may apply for the program. The applications and information may be received by contacting Piedmont Technical Education. Center or by seeing a high-school guidance counselor. In addition, applicants will be given a test for basic skills and required to have an interview with members of the nursing staff. A dental examination report must also be filed with the school. All of these steps must be completed by March 15. There is no tuition charge to residents of Orange, Madison, Culpeper or Rappahannock Counties. However, the cost for books, uniforms, and other expenses is approximately $320.00. Virginia s counties and independent cities last year, has promised to visit all the rest before the end of 1980. “This is in keeping with my commitment to ‘listen to Virginia’ so that I can give the people of the Commonwealth the kind of representation they want on Capitol Hill," Warner said. During 1979, Warner appeared in 28 independent cities and 38 counties in Virginia. In the same period, he responded to all 509 Senate roll calls for a 100-per cent voting record, one of only four members of the 100-member Senate to reach that goal. “It is important that I stand up and be counted on the floor of the United States Senate,” Warner said. “But it is also important that I meet with the people I represent in Washington so that I know their views on issues of great importance to Virginia and the nation." In addition to Rappahannock, nearby counties of Orange and Madison can also anticipate a visit from Virginia’s junior Senator this year. There has been no word yet as to when he can be expected. WVFD To Meet Washington Volunteer Fire Department will hold its regular meeting on Thursday, February 14 beginning at 8 p.m. All members are urged to appear.

Facility Needs Capelle reported to the planners on responses from county agencies and departments as to what facility needs they anticipate in the future: The school board plans capital improvements but on existing property, not at a new location. The county water and sewer authority projects completion of the Sperryville sewer system, development of a central water system in Sperryville and a central sewer system in the town of Washington. Library board members expect to upgrade library services and will need additional book storage space but will expand only at the existing library site. Neither the health department nor any branches of county government foresee building needs. SherifF W. A. Buntin noted that Rappahannock uses Fauquier County’s jail for prisoner detention but anticipated no problems in continuing this contractual arrangement. The planners agreed to list the anticipated facility needs in the draft comprehensive plan as they were submitted by the different agencies. Before adjourning, the planners retired with commonwealth attorney Douglas Baumgardner to a half hour executive session on performance of personnel and consultation with legal advisor. Returning to open session, they authorized Baumgardner to confer with the supervisors regarding the procedural aspects of C. E.

(Continued from Page 1) where choices in public accommodations are limited, our kids were easily impressed by the amenities of urban living that city kids take for granted. Not many youngsters from Richmond or Northern Virginia would let out shouts of surprise at a rather ordinary motel. Of course, not many kids from Sperryville would be awed by Old Rag or Stoney Man blanketed with snow, either. After unpacking and more squeals as the kids saw their rooms, we walked to the Williamsburg visitors center for a movie. The devotion to freedom expressed by George Washington, Patrick Henry and young Tom Jefferson in the film “Story of a Patriot” seemed more meaningful this year in light of the national challenges our country now faces. Judging by the spontaneous applause from the kids at the end of the movie, they too were moved by the church bells proclaiming Virginia’s independence as the Unior Jack ran down Williamsburg’s flag pole for the last time and was replaced by our Stars and * Stripes. Later, , at the Wax Museum, the history lesson continued. We saw Pocahontas save Captain John Smith, Indians battle settlers, tea dumped into Boston harbor. Molly Pitcher load a cannon on the front lines of battle and Gen. George Washington cross the Delaware in an open boat on a freezing Christmas Eve. We were back in the motel rooms before nine. The kids pulled out tape players that had been banned on the buses and plugged in radios to send their favorite hits echoing into the hall. Like hordes of army ants, they descended on the first floor soda and snack machines. It didn’t take long. In only an hour, little red lights began to blink “selection out" as the stock of Pepsi, orange, grape, root beer, cookies, candy and crackers disappeared. We chaperones stationed ourselves where the action was and set up a table in the hall for bridge just a door away from the refreshment center. Once the snack machines were emptied, ice was the only excuse the boys had to leave their segregated quarters upstairs for a trip down to the girls’ floor. The rate of consumption was staggering. They ate enough ice to turn their insides into deep freezes. Judging by the parade for bucket after bucket, an observer would have guessed it was the middle of summer and 110 degrees instead of the end of January. At 11 p.m., fights went out. The kids settled down quickly. Occasionally, a head would pop out the door to check, I suppose, if those grown-ups were still watching. We were and the heads drew back in just as fast. All was quiet in the girls’ hall by a little after midnight and we followed the kids into the sack. As an old Fruit Trees Offered The National Arbor Day Foundation is offering free fruit trees.

Even so, I wasn’t prepared for the shock of early morning. I rose but I was a long, lofig way from shining. The lids lightened a little after a couple cups of coffee. Still, I wasn’t anywhere near alert until we were introduced to the woman who was to guide us back through Williamsburg. Energy Transfusion Mrs. Wilson was a wonder. She had enough energy for an army and she managed to share it with us. We all caught a contact high from her laughing voice and we learned-teacher, chaperone and seventh graders alike. She encouraged the children to view their Trailways bus as a time capsule that had carried them back to the 18th century. “Now, everything you see, I want you to think how it got here. Fill this town with people,” she told the group. As a carnage drove by, she asked the kids to envision the number of crafts persons it had taken to put that carriage on the street. The answers came flying back as the seventh graders caught her enthusiasm. “A blacksmith,” shouted one, noticing the metal pieces. “A carpenter,’’ added another. “Now, what about the horses?

It was about 7 a.m. and the waitress came over at minus 5 miles per hour. We all ordered, Nathan got his eggs, etc. Swanson hadn’t been waited on yet when I got my order. Juice and milk were warm, toast was cold and they gave me a whole saucer hill of apple jelly. I borrowed a spoon and knife from Nathan, as none came for me. He looks like a clean cut fellow, so I wound up using Nathan’s napkin. All the apple jelly in the State must be located here. I eat all 1 can to help the orchardists in my district but a little strawberry preserves would be nice once in a while. Well, the cut-off for introducing bills shook the apples from the trees. More than 2,950 bills and resolutions will be in the hopper by Monday morning. It is the largest number I have seen since I have been down here. Lord knows whether we will be able to complete the job by March 8. If the Committee Chairmen will just knuckle down, we might make it. A lot of time is wasted when “legalese” gets into the act. I got two visits today from different members of the Health Department over my ^ sSptic tank bill, and another visit is to take place early Monday morning. It seems that my bill contains no regulations which strike at the very heart of their regulatory watermelon. It is going to be real interesting as I warned them at the last hearing that the folks in our district have had enough procrastination. The subcommittee hearing on the bill Beard is to be held Tuesday at 8 a.m. on the fifth floor. Another bill of interest to our automobile agencies will not require itemizing of repairs if the estimate is sworn to. A gasohol bill was passed by the House allowing our farmers to manufacture gasohol for farm use without a $10,000 bond. The regulations and procedures were removed from the Attorney General’s Office and placed in the Department of Agriculture where they should be for the farmer. Of all things, a bill was introduced allowing coal trucks to obtain a permit to haul overweight loads. Of coursj, we will not see any in our area but with all the hassle about overweight trucks tearing up roads, how could a thing like this come to pass? A proposed House bill will tighten VASAP so that two convictions of driving under the influence will result in a loss of permit. I’ll bet this house bill will not pass the Courts of Justice Committee. Here is another doozy—a bill to increase room and board for jurors from $20 to $50 per week if they serve away from home. Shucks, it’s hard to stay at home for $50 per week! Get this one: a bill to eliminate the maximum class size of kindergarten through third grades. It is comong from the Education Committee that, at the last session, killed a similar bill proposed by Governor Dalton. I’ll bet another bill will raise some eyebrows. It will require school boards to prohibit students from parking on school property if other transportation (school buses) is available, or if the student lives within 2'/i miles of the school. Back again is a bill that was soundly defeated last year allowing private schools to enter the public school athletic completion league. It is already known that some private schools accept star athletes whose grades are such that they cannot enter college. After two years in these schools their grades improve and they wind up in the college that sent them there in the first place. I voted against it last year and will do so again. Well, that's all for now and remember all the above bills are still at the committee stage, except the gasohol bill, which is on its merry way to the Senate. We had almost 2.000 bills last year and only a few more than 600 passed, so don't count the chickens or should I say the apple jellies before you eat them. See you next week.

This was The News... in Bygone Rappahannock Times. 10 YEARS AGO 1970 The front page of this issue had several photos of dumpsters at the old Sperryville school with trash spread all over the ground. Rappahannock’s first 1970 traffic fatality was Thomas Harry Williams of Washington, D.C. who was killed in a crash on Route 522 east of Woodville. The vehicle burst into flames after it crashed. The Virginia General Assembly with Duncan C. Gibb representing Rappahannock was endeavoring to fund and finance within the present tax structure all of the many services needed. Whether or not to permit twin trailers on the state’s highways was also a question. Turkey hunters set an all time record with a year’s total of 6,000, while deer killed state-wide numbered 34,117. That year Virginia received $750,000 from the tax on arms, ammunition and fishing tackle. 30 YEARS AGO 1950 Rappahannock Board • of Supervisors decided to employ a trained assistant to help in the local board of assessors in the reassessment of local real estate. This action was taken at the February meeting of the supervisors. The salary of Treasurer Robert L. Brown was set at S3,200 and another $600 added for a part time assistant. According to Brown this was a savings of $500 and the county needed to save money wherever it could. The board also investigated the possibility of hiring a health nurse by deducting $1,300 from Welfare Department funds and adding it to the $500 received from TB seal sales.

Letter To The Editor To the Editor: Please!, please!, "say it ain’t so!" Could it be that the signs posted at the "dumpster sites" in Rappahannock County (as reported in your January 31, 1980 issue) really do state the county’s trash ordinance, or are these signs the work of a prankster or an Illiterate graffiti artist? I cannot believe that the official position of the county is that: 1) only Rappahannock citizens can place trash in the containers. This would seem to mean that we visitors to 1 your lovely county would not only be free to, but be required to place our trash anywhere else but in the containers, that is, all over the countryside, and 2) only non-combustible material (such as iron, steel, other metals, rocks, stones, etc) is permitted even by Rappahannpck citizens, which is to say that paper, wood scraps, cardboard, etc. (which are #11 combustible) are not permitted. My guess is that the county would like to dissuade out of county citizens from depositing large volumes of trash, and would likewise wish to prohibit the depositing of flammable mixtures, explosives ot anything that is highly combustible. May I respectfully suggest that the signs need a bit of rewording. E.

In recognition of the vital role that this program plays in preparing youngsters for the world after high school. The Rappahannock News will look at offerings in vocational education at Rappahannock County High School and Piedmont Technical Education Center. Vocational education classes at Rappahannock County High School offer students a sampling of career Fields. Ed Ford and Thomas Von Fange teach carpentry, plumbing, electrical skills, welding, automotive and power mechanics, and drafting. Both emphasized, however, that their classes are intended primarily as an introduction to the different fields. Most students need additional vocational training on top of what RCHS provides in ocdeivtO' jOin OilK working,. .* graduation, according tcP Ford and Von Fange. “Only about 30 per cent of the kids in my building trades class will be able to get a job right after graduation," said Ford. He added, however, that all Rappahannock graduates from Piedmont regional school's two-year program should have sufficient training to be hired in their chosen field directly from high school. “But 1 don’t want to push kids to Piedmont if they can’t read and write,” Ford continued. He stressed that youngsters must have at least average grades in academic subjects in order to complete successfully Piedmont’s twoyear vocational program. Rappahannock's only twoyear program is Ford’s morning class in building trades. The curriculum is aimed at students who aren’t "academically oriented" and covers carpentry, plumbing and electrical wiring, primarily for residences. Ford also touches on welding and automotive mechanics. “If they have a car. 1 let them bring it in to work on,” he said. He added that his introduction to welding gives boys with jobs on farms enough training to do welding repairs necessary in an agricultural operation. “The kids get a crack at doing all sorts of projects that aren’t actually in our curriculum,” he continued. The 12 students in the building trades class will soon have the opportunity to learn a little something about fluorescent lighting. Ford plans to put them to work replacing 12 fluorescent units in the vocational shop, a job that’s taken care of by the maintenance staff in most other schools. The Little Fox .fSStl In the afternoon. Ford teaches plumbing to eight mentally retarded students mainstreamed from special education classes. "Basically, we cover the type of plumbing that goes in a house. But only seven of them even have plumbing in their homes so it's hard to explain just what I’m talking about.” Ford said. He added that the books designed for the course are too advanced for the mentally handicapped students and so he has to paraphrase and explain the material rather than simply assign a section to read. "Some of my special ed students will be able to go out and earn a living after they Finish here." Ford predicted. “But some won’t ever be able to even read." he acknowledged. Exploratory Program Von Fange's industrial arts classes are exploratory for Mwore inc Fined students. ~ , He gives 57 kids a taste of different trades in his four courses — Mechanical drawing, power mechanics, wood working and two introductory classes covering welding, wood working and electricity. Currently, in his introductory classes. Von Fange is teaching students assembly line production as they make candle lanterns with interchangeable parts. The kids supply the glass and the industrial arts department provides the wood. The lanterns. when assembled and stained, look just like the high priced antique reproductions found in local craft shops. But there’s a big difference. The 50 lanterns put together by Von Fange's students cost between $1.50 and $2 while the price tag on the more expensive variety runs close to $20. "It was a very good lesson. They learned that assembly line work is no fun. It's boring and because it is boring, it can be dangerous." Von Pange explained. His industrial arts students are involved in another project that will widen opportunities in athletics at the high school. Interest in a weight lifting program inspired Von Fange to assign his kids to building bar bells. "We got the steel from a junk yard. It was already cut into discs—a real miracle for us. We loaded up one ton and the kids have sanded the discs so you won't slice your finger and welded the bars on to make dumb bells.” Von Fange said. The ton of junkyard steel cost $250. According to Von Fange. just one Olympic bar bell runs between $200 and $300. From their steel supply, the industrial arts students have made two complete sets of Olympic bars with eight sets of discs apiece, a set of squat bars and a dozen sets of dumb bells for a savings of at least $500 over the standard price for similar equipment. “I keep asking him where he’s going to put it,” chuckled Ford. , ‘‘They’re going on the stage but first we have to build some cabinets,” Von Fange answered. As with most of the high school programs, space is a problem in industrial arts. Ford holds his building trades class in an area designed as a storage closet. It has no windows, no heat and no ventilation. Von Fange said he’s qualified to teach courses in plastics, ceramics and metal work. "But there’s no room.” he added. Both instructors would like to see more female students taking industrial arts. While shop classes are open to girls, only two are currently enrolled, according to Von Fange. “They’re doing extremely well,” hev said. “We need a jo| more girls in here. , The way society’s going, they’ll need to know how to do all this.” Ford would like to see more vocational courses offered to college-bound youngsters as elective. “They could use woodworking or auto mechanics,” he said."Vocational education shouldn't be viewed as a dumping ground for kids who can’t make it academically,” Ford concluded.

With 135 persons out of a work force of 2,229 unemployed during the month of December, Rappahannock’s rate stood at 6.1 per cent. By comparison, unemployment during the same month was 4.6 per cent in Culpeper and Madison, 4.4 per cent in Orange and 3.4 per cent in Fauquier. Compared to November, 1979, unemployment throughout the planning district edged up slightly from 3.7 per cent to 4.2 per cent in December, 1979. Despite the local increase, unemployment in the area compares favorably to 4.7 per cent for the state of Virginia and 5.6 per cent for the nation as a whole, according to the VEC.

Rappahannock Panthers Win Seven On Saturday Rappahannock's Varsity basketball players won their seventh game, their highest tally since back in 1969 when they also won seven, with a 66-45 victory over the Clarke County Eagles. The Panthers began slowly and didn't get on the scoreboard until after three minutes ticked away. Gary Leake made the opening basket and a minute later Jimmy Tomko put the Panthers ahead. 8-6, where they remained for the rest of the game. Clarke pulled within one with half a minute to go in the opening period but Leake made the last shot, widening the margin, 11-8. The Eagles began to slip in the second quarter and were in foul trouble early. Rappahannock held Clarke scoreless for two minutes then Gary Leake converted on a Greg Bright rebound to put Rappahannock ahead 158. But the Panthers had trouble rebounding and allowed the Eagles to creep within one 17-18. Tony Armentrout made a last second basket to send RCHS to the locker room leading 22-19 at half time. The Panthers played excellent ball in the third quarter, particularly in passing. Mike Leake scored in the early seconds to put Rappahannock ahead 24-19. Well thrown passes from Mike Leake and Greg Bright to Gary Leake widened the margin even more. The Panther defense permitted the Ealges only one shot each time down the court for much of the quarter. By the end of the period, Rappahannock led 42-28. , RCHS dominated the offensive flow in the fourth quarter, scoring 24 points. The Panthers started their scoring drive only seven seconds into the quarter when Gary Leake connected on another Greg Bright pass. The Panthers’ almost perfect performance at the foul line increased the margin to a 66-45 win. Gary Leake paced the Panthers with 27 points and eight rebounds. The Rappahannock J. V. Panthers were upset by the Clarke County Eagles. At the beginning of the contest. Coach Bob Edmondson took it easy and put in his last string players. It was their first game as starters and they were overwhelmed by the Eagles, who led 10-0 halfway through the quarter. The coach realized he had misjudged the Eagles and put in his top five but even they were not enough to cool off a fired up Clarke County team. The Eagles led 14-2 after Robert Myers scored the Panthers' first bucket which didn't come until after five and a half minutes of play. Rappahannock's Junior Panthers lacked the enthusiasm to win. They almost sparked a drive when Carl Frye stole a poor Eagle pass and went down court and dunked the ball for two points. But Clarke County just shrugged off this play and kept up their drive to lead 23-10 at the half. The Panthers were never in the ball game. They made careless passes and looked spiritless. The Eagles led 2718 at the end of third quarter. The Eagles kept up their performance in the final quarter and won 45-26. Robert Myers and Glenn Fletcher had eight points apiece as the Junior Panthers shot only 30 percent from the field. Varsity Panthers Whip Page With a 61-46 win oyer Page last Friday, February 1, the Rappahannock Panthers improved their chances for a berth in the Skyline District Tournament. The Panthers got off to a good start, scoring two baskets within a minute. Both teams had a bead on the basket, but Rappahannock also controlled the boards and led 16-10 at the end of the first quarter. The Page defenders looked as though they might capture the lead, when they allowed the Panthers only one shot each trip down court for three minutes. Rappahannock's good passing and penetration finally overwhelmed Page and put RCHS ahead 24-14. The Panthers went on to play strong defense and led 28-20 at the half. Rappahannock started the second half turning the ball over and Page moved within six. 24-30. The Panthers quickly regrouped, forcing Page to give up the ball on mistakes and moved ahead 34-24. Jimmy Tomko aided the Panthers by becoming a scoring threat from the outside and rearranging Page’s defensive strategy. The Panthers were ahead 39-28 going into the final quarter.
