Wood of Woodville is the crumpled tin roof. The bam was struck by lightning Sunday evening and was hastily consumed by the flames, a roaring inferno, according to Wood. The apple tree in the background was scorched, also. Language Sparks Warning Board Limits Power To Transfer Money Reprimands for cursing from chairman Beverly Massie and Robert Eastham's angry rebuttal, blaming his language on the example set by television, marked Monday’s school board session as the members adopted three of five new budgetary procedures proposed by the Wakefield District representative. At the July meeting, Eastham offered his five-part resolution and followed it up 9 with letters of explanation mailed to the other members. On Monday night, the board took up his suggestions one at a time. Eastham proposed that all federal funds, specifically Title I money, appear on both the revenue and expenditure sides of the budget sent to the supervisors. Currently, the regular school budget and the Title 1 budget are prepared separately. Chairman Beverly Massie reported that she’d discussed the suggestion with both supervisor chairman E. P. Luke and county accountant Struck By Lightning Andy Settle of Amissville was hospitalized after he was struck by lightning during a storm Sunday evening at the home of Ray Coffey at Castleton where he was visiting. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Warren Settle of Route 729. According to his mother, Any was drawing a pail of water from an outside faucet when he was hit. He realized he had been sturck before he blacked out and remained unconscious for about an hour, she said. He was taken to Fauquier Hospital, Warrenton by Amissville Rescue Squad where he remained until Tuesday. He received no burns, but had trouble maintaining steady blood pressure, Mrs. Settle said, but is apparently all right now. Wally Cox. Noting that Title I funds are “flow through money, Mrs. Massie said that the supervisors wanted the Title I budget and the regular school budget kept separately. “Combining them escalates the entire budget,” she said, adding that Cox felt the board should follow the supervisors’ recommendation. (Title I consists of federally funded programs—the reading and math labs at both schools as well as special primary groups —which are aimed at bringing educationally disadvantaged youngsters up to grade level through intensified instruction. In Title I programs, salaries for teachers and aides and costs of instructional materials are paid for with federal funds.) Eastham maintained that it takes “months of work to figure out where we stand in the budget” if Title I funds are omitted, adding that totals will not reconcile unless the two budget documents are combined. Supervisors Are Boss “Basically I agree but our bosses are the board of supervisors,” Newbill Miller replied. “I think the persons you should convince are the board of supervisors,” he told Eastham. New board member Nelson Lane, attending his first meeting, noted that he was “in favor of good accounting” but added beyond that, he had no comment. “I’m also in favor of good accounting but as I understand it, the Title I budget doesn’t coincide with the ^county's budget year,” remarked Nancy Reeve. (The county budget runs from July 1 through June 30 which the Title I budget covers from October 1 to September 30.) In the second item of his resolution, Eastham asked for a discontinuance of “carry-over” funds, money appropriated but unspent in one budget year and carriedover for expenditure in the following year. He described carry-over as “totally unnecessary,” a practice that 1 Atkins Fined, Bound Over For Grand Jury In General District Court on Friday, Levi Atkins, Sr. of Amissville was found guilty of destroy!.» private property Gand fined SbUo plus court costs by Judge John Alexander. Alexander suspended S250 of the fine providing Atkins makes restitution for damages to Emmanuel J. Pullen, also of Amissville. In an incident which occurred June 13, Atkins ran a tractor up under the rear end of Pullen's truck and raised the vehicle with a fork lift, damaging the braces that hold tne uuu uouy to the frame. In addition, Atkins allegedly attempted to run Pullen down with the tractor. Felony charges of attemtping to wound were certified by Alexander to the grand jury which next sits on November 10. “destroys the integrity" of the budget. At its June meeting, Eastham had tried to convince the board to prohibit carry-over but failed to win support from the other board members who wanted to retain the option of deciding on a case by case basis whether to allow the practice. On Monday, Miller again repeated his contention that 'the board must retain flexibility. First is Fair In the discussion of each part of Eastham’s resolution. SWORN IN WEDNESDAY to the Rappahannock Planning Commission is David Thornhill of Woodville who fills the vacancy created by the resignation of Walter Masterson, also of Woodville. David operates the farm of his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Carey Thornhill at Boston. “Pinafore” Needs Piano The Rappahannock County Library is sending out a call for actors and actresses who can carry a tune to try out for the library’s production of Gilbert and Sullivan’s witty Victorian masterpeice, “H-M-S. Pinafore.” on Monday, August 18. at 7 p.m. in the old theater on Gay Street. In addition, carpenters willing to hammer a few nails as stage and scenery builders and painters who will wield their brushes on scenery are also needed. Last but definitely not least, the behind-the curtain magicians, director Don Bomberger, voice coach Judy Bomberger and choreographer Lilo Foster, must have an upright piano before rehearsals get under way. Anyone interested in taking part in the Pinafore production scheduled for performance the first weekend in October is invited to the auditions on Monday. Mrs. Massie asked every board member in turn for their reaction, reaching the Wakefield representative last for any rebuttal. After the first two points were covered, Eastham interrupted to demand that he be given an opportunity to speak first and explain his proposals. He maintained that it’s “not fair” to have him wait until everyone has spoken before giving him a chance to correct any misconceptions. Mrs. Massie replied that (Continued on Page 8) Book Rental Fees, School Lunches Hiked In order to avoid a repeat of the S10.000 deficit in last year’s school lunch program, the Rappahannock school board voted at Monday’s meeting to up the price of meals for the coming term with the proviso that the cost can be increased further if it appears the program will operate at a loss. At the elementary school, the price of a lunch will go from 45 cents to 55 cents, at the high school from 50 cents to 65 cents. Adult lunches will increase in price from 65 cents to 90 cents and extra milk from five cents to ten cents. Last year was the first time that the lunch program operated at a deficit, according to superintendent William Bloomer. He noted, however, that the loss will not affect the school budget since the cafeterias are funded primarily by federal flow through funds with reimbursement based on the number of lunches served. He attributed last year’s loss to a combination of factors. In.the past, Bloomer noted, CETA (Comprehensive Employment Training Act) workers have been employed as cafeteria helpers at no cost to the school system. During 197980, no CETA workers were available. until halfway through the year because of certification hold-ups and therefore, cafeteria funds had to be used for part-time help, according to the superintendent. \ In addition, he continued, the cost of food skyrocketed, government food commodities weren’t as available as they have been in the past and the federal government failed to provide the S3.000 “in lieu of commodities” payment which Rappahannock received the year before when commcHiiie* were also scarce. Text Book Rentals An increase in text book rental fees for both schools Rappahannock Crinle Rate Lowest In Planning District By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Crimewise, Rappahannock County is a safer place to live than any of its neighbors in the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District. Compared with the other four counties in PD 9, Rappahannock has the lowest incidence of serious crime, according to statistics recently released by the Virginia State Police. The state police’s Uniform Crime Reporting Section’s publication, "Crime In Virginia", gives the rate of serious crime per 1,000 Rappahannock residents for 1979 as 15.2, a decrease of 14 Registrars To Sit At All Precincts Registrar Ruth Kilby and her deputy, Marjorie Atkins, will be at the six Rappahannock voting precincts beginning Friday. August 22, to register voters for the November 4 elections. The special registration hours have been scheduled in response to requests from the community, according to Mrs. Atkins. Last year, she recalled, the registrars held extra hours at the courthouse office in Washington but only a handful of people showed up. “Two years ago, Mary Cleverley went out to all the princincts but with limited response there too,” Mrs. Atkins said. “There’s more interest now, more people working,” she added. The deputy registrar stressed that qualified voters may register at any of the six precincts. “Just because you live in Woodville doesn’t mean you have to wait until we come to Woodville,” she said. Additional dates to register will be August 22 at the Amissville fire hall; August 29 at Chester Gap fife hall; September 5 at Washington in the courthouse; September 12 at Flint Hill fire hall; September 19 at Sperryville fire hall and September 26 at Burke's Store in Woodville. Hours for registration, at each of the six precincts will be 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. In addition, The registrar’s office is also open every Thursday from 8:30 to 4:30. On Saturday, October 4, the last day to register before the election in November, the office in the<>courthouse will also be open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. To qualify to vote, an individual must be a citizen of the U.S., 18 years of age as of November 4 and a resident of the precinct in which they vote as of October 4. Persons formerly registered but who have not voted at least once in the past four years have been purged from the voters lists and must reregister in order to cast their ballot on November 4. Those coming to register do not need a birth certificate or any other type of documentation but must know their social security number, according to Mrs. Atkins. was also approved by the board. Chairman Beverly Massie noted that rental fees cover supporting instructional materials as well as text books. Reading work books, however, are not included. Elementary rental fees will be $21 for grades 4-7 and $14 for grades kindergarten through third. Rental fees for high school texts will be $4 per book except for calculus, slightly higher at $5. Additional class fees include S10 for shop, S2 for science, $6 for home economics. $5 for art, $9.75 for physical education uniforms and lockers, $1 for school parking permits and $1 for optional hall lock rental. New board member Nelson Lane asked if parking fees could be increased even further to discourage driving to school. His proposal along with a suggestion from Sharon Kilpatrick that fees be raised high enough to pay for an activity bus will be taken up at the September board meeting in the school board’s scheduled discussion of fuel conservation plans. After a two hour and fifteen minute executive session that didn’t end until 1 a.m., the board voted unanimously to reject the Rappahannock Mental Health Clinic’s offer of psychological services and to instead retain Marge Myers as school psychologist. New personnel approved for employment included earth science and English teachers at RCHS; seventh grade, combination learning disabled-emotionally disturbed and assistant principal for the elementary school; a cafeteria coordinator. aide for the elementary school’s educable mentally retarded-trainable mentally retarded com(Continued on Page 2) State of Virginia Rappahannock Fauquier Madison 79 78 79 78 79 78 79 78 e * 5,894 5,670 31,303 29,776 10,263 10,615 8. a ■ at: I t 43.0 40.5 15.2 17.6 17.4 13.1 19.8 12.9 22.9 23.9 21.0 21.5 35.9 42.1 28.7 20.1 $ 1 I S !z m II II 442 452 1 4 3 Crimes Against Persons 2L a OS J8 1 o b. 1400 1160 as 5780 4991 3 2 a s •< 1 ! 7940 8083 3 4 15 9 9 3 Crimes Against Property If a ea 56,103 50,964 27 27 192 179 92 48 >» 1 141,311 131,670 38 50 299 181 91 73 £ k II 12,792 11,776 7 3 28 5 3 2 Orange 79 78 17,622 15,840 23.2 25.1 40.5 32.8 3 4 2 1 2 2 23 17 107 128 241 208 17 17 Culpeper 79 78 22,628 22,079 21.0 21.8 42.6 41.2 4 4 2 3 27 22 84 113 317 314 28 22 percent over the 1978 rate of 17.6 By comparison, the 1979 rates for serious crimes in the planning district’s other counties were 21 per 1,000 in Culpeper, 17.4 in Fauquier, 19.8 in Madison and 23.2 in Orange. At the same time, however, Rappahannock ranks at the bottom in the planning district with 21 percent for percentage of crimes cleared, a slight decrease over the 21.5 percent cleared in 1978. In Culpeper County, 42.6 percent of serious crimes were cleared, in Fauquier 35.9 percent, Madison 28.7 percent and Orange 40.5 percent. In the state of Virginia, the serious crime rate totaled 43 per 1,000 residents'with 22.9 percent of crimes cleared. For reporting purposes, the state police include murdernon-negligent manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny and motor vehicle theft as serious crimes. In the state as a whole as in the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District, crimes against property outnumbered crimes against presons with larceny ranking first comprising 62.6 percent of Virginia’s serious crimes followed by burglary with 24.8 percent. Crimes against persons, however, have the higher clearance rate—92.3 percent for murder-non-negligible manslaughter, 66.4 percent of forcible rape and 77.7 percent for aggravated assault. By comparison, the statewide clearance rate for crimes against property are much lower—18.6 percent for larceny, 22.3 percent for burglary, 30.9 percent for robbery and 29.2 percent for motor vehicle theft. For the planning district as a while, clearance rate for all serious crimes in 1979 was 37.3 percent. Value of property stolen totaled $796,565 with recovered property valued at $281,890. Trained Personnel Rappahannock sheriff W. A. Buntin attributed his department’s low crime clearance rate to lack of trained investigative perosnnel. He noted that the other four sheriffs departments in the planning districts all have an investigator on staff for just that purpose. In addition, he said, the large number of weekend and vacation homes in the county have an impact on the clearance rate. Houses without full-time residents are prime targets for burglars. Property stolen from these homes, however, often isn’t reported until days or weeks later. “In the winter, it’s sometimes several months before the theft is discovered and reported. Then we just don’t have any chance of really getting any leads," Buntin explained. He credited Rappahannock’s 14 percent decrease in serious crime primarily to more patrolling made possible by the hiring of an additional deputy. "Being able to be out there and be seen has a lot to do with it," he said. Buntin added that he expects the ' sheriffs department’s higher visibility with county-owned police cars, a first this year for Rappahannock County, to be an additional deterent to crime. Among counties in the planning district. Orange and Culpeper also showed decreases in serious crimes but by a much smaller percentage—seven and three percent respectively—than Rappahannock. The crime rate per 1,000 rose in Fauquier by 32 percent and in Madison by 53 percent. Virginia State Trooper R. A. Baines noted that Rappahannock’s low crime clearance rate may be caused partially by differences in reporting. If five cars are broken into at a ball game and police suspect the same person or persons in each instance, he explained, the breaking may be reported by some police department^ as a single crime and by others as five separate violations. "A lot of smaller police departments don't report crimes properly. They treat everything as a single offense.” In the case of the Rappahannock sheriffs department, said Baines who has worked closely with law enforcement here for the past nine years, all five hypothetical break-ins would be reported separately. Agreeing with sheriff Buntin’s reaction to the crime statistics. Baines noted that larceny of weekend residences is the county’s most frequently committed crime and the most difficult to solve, primarily because of the delay between the time the larceny is committed and the time it's discoverd and reported by part-time residents. Baines also agreed that higher police visibility acts as a deterent to many types of crimes. In addition to the new county-owned police cars he said, manpower increases by the state police could act to lower the crime rate here even further in the coming months. Baines reported that since July, a state trooper has been on duty in Rappahannock almost all the time. Previously, he said, the three state troopers assigned to the county often had to cover Page as well as Rappahannock. “Now we have 274 square miles instead of 500 square miles. It’s still alot for one trooper but it should help,” he concluded.

In attacking the everpresent problem with leaks in flat roofs, the board voted unanimously to authorize expenditure of $16,900 for the final base application to seal potential cracks in a section of the elementary school roof. The board members noted that the work was awarded to Bill Otis of Federicksburg on the basis of competitive bidding three years ago for the two-part project now in its final stage. Under the instigation of Robert Eatham, the board agreed to consider at its September session the agenda form for its meetings suggested in the State School Board handbook. The major change in the new procedure involves, taking- up “items from board members” earlier in the sessions instead of as the meeting’s final item.

As the home team sported a handicap aggregate of only three compared to Woodlawn’s four, the former received one before the match got underway. Rappahannock failed to add to this in the first period while Roger Steele dumped one in to tie it up. Tony Cappola, a three-goal pro brought in by Bill Fannon, set up Rappahannock's second tally with an attempted No. 4 foul shot. The shot was stopped, but Jack Ferguson took the ball from the succeeding melee and scored while Woodlawn was held scoreless. Luck ran against the home foursome in the third period as they threatened continually without success. On the other hand, the visitors, led by Phil Staples, scored twice to edge into the lead for the first time, making it 3-2 at the half. Afternoon showers lowered temperatures, but that didn’t prevent tempers from running high. Disagreement over the umpiring prompted announcer Bob Gehringer to comment, “This may only be a 4-goal game, but there’s a lot of 10-goal cussin’ going on out there.” This Bike Safety Rodeo Set David Atkins of Boy Scout Troop 36 in Flint Hill has organized a bike safety rodeo to be held at the elementary school this Saturday.

Elroy Worsham tapped in the only point of the sticky fourth period to put Woodlawn up by two. As often proves the case, action in the fifth was fast and furious. The visitors took off in the beginning of the period with Steele scoring in the first minute and Staples following him up immediately. Despite being down by four, Rappahannock refused to quit.

It can protect you against almost any conceivable damage or accident that can happen in. on, around and even away from your home. But do not make the mistake of thinking that your homeowners insurance will pay off your mortgage upon the breadwinner's death. It won't. For this type of protection, and it is desirable. you must purchase a certain type of term life insurance policy for a period of time equal to the length of the mortgage loan. The premiums on such policies are relatively low - in fact, they are about the lowest cost life insurance policies you can buy because the insurance protection decreases with the reduction of your mortgage. Most insurance companies will tailor a plan to fit your needs and in many cases you can have the payments included in your mortgage payment to the bank. Check with your insurance agent and he will be able to give you the details regarding this protection.

August 16 at 8 p.m. It’s A Long, Long Way From Sperryville To Delhi By F. L. WORMALD Sprriil To RappafcuuHvrk Vrw» Our first full night in Delhi, we slept like the proverbial log in our comfortable beds. Virginia for her usual seven hours or sO; I for four hours precisely. (It took me nearly a week to recover from jet lag.) I lay there, not at all unhappy but striving to persuade myself that we were really in India. Then, as the lovely Indian dawn broke, my wife awoke. Soon we were electrified by an unmistakable sound, the tlot-tlot of horses' hooves, lots of them. We staggered to the window. On the boulevard below us. cavalrymen in double file were riding by, no doubt for morning exercise. They came on, in groups up to twenty at a time, with breaks in between, for fifteen or twenty minutes at least. We could see that the riders in each group differed from other groups in their uniforms, headdress in particular. We guessed that they were detachments from the various cavalry regiments of the army, seconded to Delhi for service in the presidential guard or something of that kind. I recalled that, from way back in the history of the old Raj. the Indian cavalry had a worldwide reputation for spit and polish—along with more solid qualities. A little later, civilian Delhi appeared on its way to work—on foot, in buses, cars and taxis, on bicycles and motorbikes. Women in voluminous saris rode pillion with apparent ease. Horsedrawn and bullock-drawn carts of all descriptions groaned or rattled by. Grayheaded crows and less identifiable birds swooped down to our window for the crumbs of bread that Virginia had saved from somewhere or other. We tore ourselves away and dressed. Our first engagement of the day, a formal introduction to India, was timed for the humane hour of 10:30. From the stage of the hotel’s main meeting hall, we were greeted by two cabinet ministers and other high officials. With sensibly brief but warmly worded speeches in impeccable English, they bade us welcome. Our leaders replied in kind. Then we were treated to a “multimedia welcome, A Discovery of India.” On a wide screen behind the stage, a brilliantly conceived and superbly, photographed film presented a conspectus of india, from its fantastic range of scenery, through its historic monuments to its current indistria! accomplishments. Below the screen, a richly costumed and highly talented dance troupe, brought from Calcutta for our especial benefit by Ananda Shanker, nephew of the famous musician Revi Shankar, performed figures attuned to the themes of the film. Afterwards, we were given a record of the bewitching music, composed by the 'younger Shankar. The performance lasted a bare hour, and we could have borne to see it all over again. But we had to move on to lunch. There we had the honor of meeting Mr. Shankar and his wife, the choreographer, of the dances. and sat down to an excellent meal. We hated to get up from the table, but we were overdue for the next item on our agenda. Our buses carried us on a sightseeing tour of New and Old Delhi. First, the fabulous red tower, Qutb Minar, built by a Mosiem king long before the Mogul conquest, and the nearby iron pillar, which has stood for centuries in the open air without rusting. As we got down at the gate, we had our first encounter with the peddlers and beggars against whom we had been sternly warned. Here the vendors predominated, offering postcards, slides, toys, junk jewelry and heaven knows what besides. Of all ages, from four or five to venerable seniority, they swarmed around us, tireless, resourceful, persistent, chattering endlessly in what we took to be English. But they were invariably friendly and smiling, never rude or hectoring, and never trying to grab hold of us, as happens in some other countries. Obedient to our instructions, we resisted as best we could, grinning and quipping in return. Next, we were given a glimpse of the official buildings of the new capital built by the British, in the closing years of their rule, in an oddly pleasing blend of traditional Indian and classical Western architecture. The broad avenues and long vistas now provide a splendid setting for the national festivals of independent India. Then we were carried on to Rajghat. where Mahatma Gandhi was cremated and is fittingly commemorated by a plain marble slab, placed among green lawns, severely rectangular pools and glowing flowerbeds. It struck me that, on that spot, no Indian—or foreigner for that matter—could fail to feel a sense of the man's greatness. From there we went on to the old city, beginning with the Red Fort, residence of Mogul emperors and scene of some of the bloodiest episodes of what the British call the Indian Mutiny. As the fort is a military station, one cannot go inside but only .look up at the massive ^fortifications crowning a long escarpment. I realized sadly (fhat. with the encroachment } of modern life and the size of the city lying below the fort, I could not visualize on the \pot the scenes of heroism and horror , that I had read about. Our last stop was the Jama Masjid mosque, the largest mosque in India. I believe, Vsaid to be capable of holding tl6,000 worshippers. Close by is the beginning of Chandni Chouk, which has been for centuries and still is one of 'the world’s greatest shopping (Streets. As we palled up at the foot of the long flight of steps leading up to the ; mosque, some of the women in the party asked if there haould be time to visit the i4>ops as well. No, said oar juide; we fmi already behind time. A voice from the back of the bus proposed that, in that case, we should [take a vote as between mosque and shops. At that point, to the amazement of my wife, 1 leapt oat of die bus, unwilling to be deprived by popular vote of the chance of visiting one of Delhi’s foremost sights. In the outcome, some of us went one way. some the other, in neither case for very long. All too soon, the buses carried us off through the fringes of the old city. For the first time, we got a glimpse of local life remote in space and spirit from green parks, grand hotels and modernistic embassies. At the foot of the blufF crowned by the great mosque lay the fish market and the chicken market, with hundreds of live fowls in little wicker cages. Shoppers milled around. We wished we could have seen more of that Delhi. Back in our room at last, Virginia and I felt a wave of weariness. Our day was not ended. That evening we were due for dinner at yet another fine hotel. But we knew too that next day we had to be up for an early start. We hated to miss anything but just could not muster up the energy to go. Lunch was still a vivid memory. So we dined off our gift fruit basket and the Scotch I had providently brought from home. Conscientious as ever, Virginia caught up on our washing before we tumbled into bed. Next morning, needless to say, one of our colleagues told us we had missed the best party yet. complete with fireworks. “Don’t mind him.’’ said his sweet, understanding wife. “They always say that about the one you skipped.” fcarly as it was when we climbed into our buses for the whole-day excursion to Agra, the morning was surprisingly warm. (Later we read in the newspapers that this year the hot weather that oppresses north-central India in our spring months was beginning earlier than usual.) One of our colleagues carried a jacket or windbreaker of some kind, explaining that we should not get back till late in the evening, when it might turn quite cold. I murmured a snide comment in my wife’s ear. In due course I was suitably punished for my hubris. When we started back, it was nearly dark and a chilly draft, from which there was no escape, whistled through the bus. Three days later, sure enough. I blossomed out in one of my rare but castastrophic colds. Incidentally, most of our party caught cold in the ensuing week, in spite of the growing heat. Otherwise, our trip to Agra was pure joy. Once clear of the interminable suburbs of Delhi, we found ourselves in really open country for the' first time. We were crossing a corner of the small, agricultural state of Haryana into the much larger state of Uttar Pradesh. In the villages and little towns we passed through. We got further fleeting glimpses of the life of the people. Women were doing their marketing at the tiny open-fronted shops, drawing water from the communal tap, carrying it, away in shiny brass pots or •earthen crocks. Men were less conspicuous except as drivers of trucks or oxcarts. We saw a few getting shaved at open-air barbershops, Children of alj ages, playing * or doing little chores*, were everywhere. After a couple of hours, we halted for refreshment at a government rest house, about half way to Agra. It looked very smart with its trim lawns, flowerbeds and flowering trees. Again, snakecharmers and peddlers (not too many), an elephant (for two-rupee rides) and craft shops. Four men with an outside lawnmower seemed to have discovered the most painless and hilarious method of cutting grass I had ever seen. It was not at all clear who was doing the work, but they were all having a lot of fun. To my puzzlement, the place seemed to be called Dabchick—the name of a waterbird where I grew up. Arrived at Agra, we were driven to another fine new hotel on the outskirts of the city. The Mughal Sheraton was differently planned from the big hotels in Delhi. It seemed to be only two stories high and spread out in long wings around the lawns and swimming-pool. We were led out to the terrace beside the pool and given cool drinks in big earthenware goblets rimmed with fresh flowers. Then we went indoors for lunch and another show of traditional dancing. The star was a young woman with a roguish twinkle in her eye, who gave us our first exhibition of dancing with six, seven, was it finally eight? brass pots piled on one’s head, then dancing on broken glass and on the edge of a couple of seemingly sharp swords. Lastly we were shown over some of the most luxurious, and expensive, guest-suites, furnished alternatively in Indian and in international style. From one of the windows I caught sight of the Taj Mahal in the distance. When at last we reached the Taj itself. Virginia and I saw that we had not been misled. Its beauty could hardly be overstated. The view of the whole building, above the long reflecting-pool that leads up to it from the gateway, is familiar to everybody from picture-books and travelogues. But what you don’t expect unless you have studied Mogul art is the wealth of carving and inlay that seems to cover much of the building. Both inside and out. the creamy marble is inlaid with symetrical but infinitely varied flower patterns in multicolored stone. Mote remarkable still, some of the wall panels have been cut back to a depth of perhaps an inch to leave intricate flower patterns standing out in low relief. And the surface of the plain marble surrounding the flowers is as smooth and even as the stone was before it was carved. No wonder the whole thing absorbed the labor of 20.000 men for twenty years. The building is, of course, a mausoleum built by the seventeenth-century emperor Shah Jehan for his wife Mumtaz Mahal. Inside, directly under the center of the dome, stands a relatively simple cenotaph, a coffinshaped block of marble. To its left, as seen from the door, and therefore off center, is a similar cenotaph. The visitor is told first that these are not real tombs but only replicas .of. the tombs in , the. crypt' Selow. Then onfc learns that the occupant of the off-center tomb is Shah Jehan himself. His wife has the center place because the mausoloum was designed for her. He intended to build himself a matching tomb, in black marble, on the opposite bank of the river, but his rebellious son thought otherwise. So when he died, he was tucked in alongside his wife. Naturally, we had to see the real tombs. We did not guess what we entailed. The entrance to the crypt begins in an unguarded hole in the floor between the doorway and the mock tombs. A stairway eight or ten feet wide and going down perhaps fifteen feet falls away before you. The first few steps are tn full daylight, but you gradually descend into almost total darkness, broken only by the feeble light of the guides' flashlights. There ar? no “up and down" tracks; everybody pushes in and out as best he may. Our little party was a drop in an ocean of people. Our footing was ^ rendered precarious by the tattered canvas shoe-covers one has to wear over one’s shoes because the Taj is treated like a mosque. My slightly claustrophobic wife would never have gone on down if a couple of wellmeaning guides had not grabbed her by both arms and propelled her onward, crying, “Make way! Make way!" I fought my way in and out again as best I could. Persephone brought back from Hades could barely have felt more relieved on returning to the light of day. At the entrance gate, our pretty. charming and knowledgeable conductress waited patiently for the stragglers and shepherded the whole party back to our buses. We moved on to our second Red Fort, where she lost my love. From the roadway to the center of the fort, up a long curving drive through two archways, it is a fairly stiff climb. My days of moutain scrambling are long past. I tried to keep up with the lady’s cracking pace but just could not make it. Barely managing to reach the top. I decided I must skip the rest of the Red Fort. After a brief rest. Virginia and 1 idled down to the outer gate and sat ourselves on a low wall outside, to watch the green parrots overhead and the varigated throng of tourists—more Indians than foreigners—marching in and out. At last, our more vigorous colleagues emerged, and we got into the buses for the long ride back. I have already spoken of the most telling feature of the journey so far as I was concerned. Arrived at the Ashoke, we were directed to the main restaurant for a blessedly informal supper. Virginia and 1 ate as fast as we dared and retired as soon as we decently could, remembering that next morning we were due for another early start. n 1913 tha highest building «» Ihy.US. was tha Woohworth building in New York Qty at 792 faatl

Taking One Day At A Time By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Newa Staff Writer The emotional hurdles faced by the families of cancer patients can loom almost as high as the wall of mortality the patient has to confront. Both have to learn how to live in the face of death. Both must learn to look at death and smile. Different people use different weapons to battle the despair that the impending death of a loved one brings. But many of the arms brought to bear against hopelessness are the same. “I used to wonder how people could stand it—knowing they were going to die,” said Pat. Acute myelocytic leukemia, a form of cancer that attacks the bone marrow, killed her husband Steve last year, 12 months after the disease was diagnosed. But those 12 months of living with a verdict of terminal cancer weren’t spent in gloom. “We were really happy. After hearing the doctor’s diagnosis, I didn't think it would be possible to laugh again, to go on and not think about it, but we did. Even though it was always with us from the medicine Steve had to take, even though it was always in the , back of our minds, we l weren’t really sad,” Pat , recalled. “We didn’t pay attention to little things. We didn’t fuss. We just lived one day at a time." she said. The couple sustained themselves with acceptance of the realities of Steve’s disease. Yet they never stopped hoping for a miracle. They never gave up on the slim chance that Steve would be one of those blessed five per cent of cancer patients whose disease goes into unexplainable, spontaneous remission. Steve’s cancer was first diagnosed in Winchester where he went for neurological tests after half his face was struck by paralysis. Doctors found leukemia in the blood tests and sent him to University of Virginia hospital at Charlottesville. “He worked until the end of December. He felt very well but then, all of a sudden, he got tired,” Pat remembered. After five weeks of chemotherapy, Steve came home but was forced to go back to UVa after he developed tuberculosis, a side effect of the leukemia treatment. In May, with the TB cured, he returned to Rappahannock. “He got so well, we started thinking he might be one of the lucky five per cent,” Pat said. She quickly added, however, that all along, the doctors never held out any hope for a cure. In fact, she said, health department director Dr. R. S. LeGarde told her that her husband lived longer With acute myelocytic leukemia than anyone he knew. Besides his war against leukemia, Steve fought another side skirmish. He developed cancer behind the eye but beat the attack off with three cobalt treatments. The progress of his major enemy continued, however, and in November, the disease came out of the state of remission that had lasted since February. “I thought he was having a heart attack but his lungs had filled up with fluid,” Pat remembered. Her husband went back to Charlottesville and, still unwilling to concede defeat, opted for another round of chemotherapy, even though' IreclHLS f SCW INC Men’s and Womens Coats Reg. $42 NOW $37 Reg. $320NOW $281 Men’s and Womens Sweaters Reg. $20 NOW $17.50 / Reg. $45NOW $39.50 Men’s Long Sleeve Dress Shirts Reg. $16 NOW $14 Reg. $19 NOW $16.50 Vke White Shop South Gate Shopping Center Open daily 9 to 6 CUI pepe f Friday 9 to 9 his doctors advised him it wouldn’t help. He died on the final, 14th day of treatment. Help From Friend* During Steve’s illness, Pat was spared the pain of having to explain a terminal illness to young children. The couple’s son and daughter were both grown and living on their own. From day to day, she had only herself to teach how to understand and live with the hopeless prognosis. In her struggle, she had help from her friends and from Steve. “People were so nice. They gave me so much support. You have to always remember that people will help you,” she said, smiling as she recalled the many acts of kindness and thoughtfulness from friends and acquaintances. Although she found some solace in her faith, it wasn’t religion that helped her through the 12 months of living with a terminal illness. “I would have prayed but I didn’t know what to pray for,” she acknowledged. Most of all, she was up lifted by Steve. Leukemia won in the battle against his body but the illness never defeated Steve’s spirit. He found reason for optimism and hope in little things throughout his fight with cancer. Feeling desperately ill after his final 14 days of chemotherapy, he left Pat with words of cheer. “The last thing he said to me was ‘I know I’ll feel better tomorrow.’ ” Drained By Struggle Jane’s husband lost his fight more than ten years ago after three major operations for cancer which began in the colon and spread through his digestive tract. The battle that took John’s life left her drained "financially, physically and emotionally. It was devastating.” She credits what she calls the four F’s with seeing her through the ordeal—family, faith, ftiends and finances. Cancer treatment is expensive. It can break a family financially and leave the survivors indebted for life. The cost of fighting the disease is one of the reasons why a diagnosis of cancer is so terrifying. Both women were prepared for the financial outpour. A decade ago, hospital costs weren't so staggering so Jane was able to meet the 20 per cent that her husband's insurance didn’t cover. But with the .skyrocketing increases in medical care, she was emphatic not only in her advice that families have insurance coverage but that they read the fine print in their policies. "Ours didn’t cover private nursing,” she noted. For Pat’s husband, the hospital bill totaled about $100,000. Both had major medical but even with the double coverage she still had to make up $5,000. Pat echoed Jane's advice on studying the wording of the policy. “There were a lot of things it didn’t cover. It didn’t allow a private room,” she noted, a must for Steve' since his illness and its treatment left him highly susceptible to germs. "We had to take reverse precautions. Everyone who came into his room had to wear a mask so they wouldn’t.’ give him anything,’’ she explained. Never Alone "We don’t do any of this ourselves," maintained Jane in explaining how friends, the second of her four F's, helped her through the years of her husband’s battle against, cancer. “It would have been a whole lot worse if not for our friends and relatives. They were always coming with something—food, an offer to drive us to George Washington Hospital or just their company. We cherished their concern and kindness.” But as much as she appreciated the company of friends, Jane didn’t discuss her husband’s illness with them. “I didn’t feel the need to talk to any of my friends about it. And they respected our need for privacy. No one asked personal questions." When Jane had to talk, she spoke with God or with her husband. Her faith was a bulwark during the years of John’s fight against cancer. “Being a Christian helped,” she stated with conviction. She remembered a night when, depressed and disheartened, she drifted off to sleep and heard a voice say “Lo. I’m with you always.” “Our faith. Our family and friends. Their faith. It all ties together,” Jane said. Son’s Best Friend When John first learned he had cancer, neither he nor Jane told their teenage son. After his father’s illness stretched into months, the boy asked if his dad was going to get any better. “I told him no, that his father had cancer,” Jane remembered. “He accepted it but it hurt. He and his father were very close. It hurt knowing that his best friend couldn’t get well.” The family clung together, trying to comfort each other. ‘‘Our world «as turned topsy-turvy but we tried not to let each other know how much we hurt,” Jane recalled. She repeated over and over that John was the strong one, sharing his quiet courage with his son and with her. “He was so good about it. I was the one groaning and moaning. He never complained. He was pure gold, just like his Purple Heart,” said Jane, speaking with pride of the medal John won in the war. Jane didn’t remembere her husband going through any of the classical stages of adjustment to one’s own mortality passed through by most dying patients. “He accepted his illness from the very beginning but he still fought,” she added. “He never asked 'Why me?.” And after John’s death, Jane fought on alone, supported by his memory. Exhausted physically and emotionally, she suffered a nervous breakdown. The drain on her personal resources bought her to her knees but she struggled back, taking a year off from her job to return to school and restore her depleted reserves. She recalled that a friend of her husbands had a colostomy and was having difficulty adjusting to the operation. John, although gravely ill himself, went to see the new patient, hoping that talking about their common problems would help. His understanding made it easier for the friend to confront the special problems shared by all colostomy patients, according to Jane. She volunteered that she too is willing to help any family facing the same situation. Maybe, she added later, if she had found a friendly ear in someone who really knew, who really understood what she was going through, her breakdown could have been avoided. I alking to others who have dealt with the same circumstances can provide comfort to the families of cancer patients. In addition, Jane offered another piece of advice. “Don't go to the hospital to see gravely ill people,” she cautioned. “After John had a visitor. I'd come into the room and find him weak with beads of sweat dripping from his face from the effort of conversation. People don't realize how much it takes out ofa patient. The best thing to do is send a card or a letter or visit them after they come home,” she said, speaking from her own experience. “Each of us will face health problems if we live long enough. The question is how do we face them? I believe the ways in which each of us meet our problems can serve as examples to help others in their time of need,” Jane continued. She echoed Pat’s advice: “Live for everyday, one day at a time,” and added words of her own: "I believe people find the strength to do what they have to do.” (Next week: New weapons in the war against cancer.)

Transfer Powers Limited (Continued from Page 1) Eastham could speak first as long as he did so succinctly, without taking the excessive time his comments usually require. "Madam chairman. I do the homework,” Eastham snapped. He maintained that his resolution didn’t relate to flexibility but was aimed at stopping “the deliberate confusion of accounting” that carry-over creates. The third part o|f Eastham’s resolution, calling for prior approval from the board before any federal Title 1 funds in supplemental budgets can be expended met with unanimous endorsement from the board. “That’s a very minor matter. I’m sure Dr. McDaniel (Title I supervisor) will be glad to bring any supplements to the board for approval,” Mrs. Massie commented. The third item in the resolution, a requirement for reports at least every other month, line item by line item, in both the regular and Title I budgets met with opposition. In addition, Eastham called for bimonthly reports on the activity and cafeteria funds, signed by the principal of the school and a second responsible faculty member. Mrs. Reeve questioned whether it was necessary to put the administration to the extra effort of preparing a line-item-by-line-item review of the lengthy school budget every other month. “I think quarterly would be enough...It’s just that much more paper work.” Trial Balance Unacceptable In response to questions, superintendent William Bloomer explained that a monthly trial balance is computed for each of the budget’s 13 categories but not for the almost 100 line items. He noted that it would take approximately an hour to transfer the trial balance information onto reports for the school board. Asked by Miller if h^ would accept that approach as a substitute, Eastham maintained he wasn't in favor of a trial balance report, insisting that it would not be Jroprrty ©ffrringa Over 150 year old log home.

In pushing for an endorsement of his proposal, he said, "1 don’t mean to whine but I have spent an enormous amount of time on this.” He added that the board’s performance of its duties would be jeopardized if the flow of financial information wasn’t forthcoming. Mrs. Reeve interjected that she’d checked with school boards in the five surrounding counties and found that none required bimonthly line item budget update. “None of them get anything more than category reports and some don’t even get that.” she added. Turn About In addressing the fifth item in his resolution, Eastham acknowledged that he had earlier supported granting the superintendent authority to transfer funds between line items in a category without prior school board approval. He announced, however, liberally sprinkling his statements with “damns" that he’d changed his mind. Mrs. Massie interjected a warning to Eastham, putting him on notice that she’d find him out of order if he didn’t stop swearing. Returning to the transfer authority under discussion. Nancy Reeve maintained that the superintendent should be allowed to transfer money between line items in a category without checking first with the board as long as he informed the members of his action at the subsequent meeting. “I think we’d be hamstringing the administration by keeping that kind of control," she said, adding that it may prove administratively impossible near the end of the budget year to pay bills without having special board meetings to authorize line item transfers. Eastham, replying with another spate of “damns”. got a second caution fronfi Mrs. Massie and a warning that she wasn't going to listen again to more of his cursing. “Don’t blame me." Eastham insisted. "Blame the television." he announced. explaining that he was unable to counter the influence of TV on his language. He told Mrs. Massie that if she objected to his swearing, she should listen to some of the broadcasts on television. “It would curl your hair." Returning to the topic at hand. Miller said that the school board should maintain control of the line items in the budget and allow transfers only with prior approval. Eastham’s resolution as proposed in five parts and seconded earlier by Lane, was defeated, 4-1 with the Wakefield representative alone in support. A compromise motion requiring (1) prior approval of line item transfers, (2) authorization from the school board before Title I funds in supplemental budgets are expended and (3) five line-', item-by-line-item budget, activity and cafeteria fund reports per year passed 4-1 with Nancy Reeve opposed. The board members agreed to discuss the possibility of combining the regular school budget with the Title 1 budget further with the supervisors.
