Virginia Phone 675-3349 20* End To Stock Claims Proposed By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Mews Staff Writer At Monday’s first meeting of the new year, the Rappahannock supervisors signaled their intention to discontinue payments to farmers for livestock killed by dogs. The impetus was a claim for a 200 pound calf from Thomas Wingfield presented by dog warden Jack Bruce. “It was a beautiful calf—no question about that—but there was no sign of dogs being around,” Bruce said. In checking the carcass, Bruce said he found the left ear removed almost as if it Were cut off by a butcher knife but "not another hair out of place...To me, it looked like a bear case.” “If you don’t think it was killed by a dog, our rules say we don’t pay,” chairman E. P. Luke responded as the supervisors voted unanimously to deny the claim. “Whether we’re going to keep on paying dog claims is a problem, Luke continued, adding that the supervisors felt claim payments aren’t warranted since the county no longer taxes livestock as personal property. If claims are discontinued, he said, local laws will still requir^ that dogs be licensed and the dog warden will still impound unlicensed canines. “Nothing would change except we wouldn’t pay livestock claims,” supervisor H. B. Wood emphasized. Without voting on the issue, Luke moved on to ask r*i- if 11— *^~*.*ui problems with too many strays. “We always have too many. They’re still piling up down by the river,” Bruce replied, apparently referring to the county’s current method for disposal of bodies of destroyed dogs. He noted that he'd built a 12 by 16 foot structure at his own expense for holding animals for the required five day impoundment. “You keep talking and talking about what you’re going to do...It's a problem and it’s getting worse,” he told the supervisors. Luke posed the possibility of using facilities in adjoining counties for disposal of canine bodies. “The transportation costs will be out of sight,” Bruce countered. The supervisor chairman maintained that cost of transporting dead animals to Front Royal or Culpeper for incineration should be weighed against the cost of the county building its own incinerator. Each dog must be kept for five days before it can be disposed of, Bruce said, a regulation which could require three or four trips per week to an incinerator. He reported that Culpeper’s dog warden formerly disposed of dead animals “here and there, wherever he could” until the supervisors approved burying the carcasses in the county dump. Now, however, Culpeper County follows the same procedure as Page, Warren and Fauquier, paying the animal shelter to gas and incinerate unclaimed strays, he said. Bruce recalled that he previously took 26 dogs at $2 per head to Front Royal for disposal but had been ordered by the supervisors to stop because the board considered the expense excessive. Luke maintained that the best disposal method is landfill burial. Dogs could be held past the five day minimum with executions carried out twice a month and burial by backhoe Hi ' - th* landfill; ’’Wood suggested. “Why keep them five days?” asked Luke. Supervisor Clarence Baldwin explained that state law requires the minimum retention period order to give people a chance to claim a strayed pet. “They can sue the county if they can prove their dog wasn’t kept five days” before being destroyed, he said. The supervisor requested Bruce to check again with adjoining counties on sharing cremation facilities and report back to the board in February. Smell Is Unwelcome County Visitor Inspired by the stench that has wafted into the town of Washington on several occasions over the past six months, local citizens have arranged a special meeting on January 16 with air pollution control personnel, to discuss ways of monitoring and correcting the smelly problem. At Monday’s meeting of the Rappahannock supervisors, Peter Kramer asked the board to send a representative to the session. The Washington cabinet maker said that since his return to the county from New England this summer, he’d noticed increased air pollution in Washington, Flint Hill and Huntly. “What do you think it is?” asked supervisor chairman E. P. Luke. “If I had to guess, I would say Front Royal,” Kramer answered. “You mean that stink that comes down here?” Luke said, noting that increased elevation of smoke stacks in Front Royal has enabled the jet stream to carry smells from the town’s industrial plants all the way to Washington, D. C. When the north wind blows, he added, the stench is carried over the mountains at Chester Gap into Rappahannock County. AI’ve smelt it since I’ve been here.” (On December 12, Kramer wrote to the Air Pollution Control Board, complaining about “the rotten stench that continually abounds in Front Royal” and occasionally “slipped across the mountain and affected air quality in Washington, Virginia.” In an answer dated December 17, John Doherty, director of the State Air Pollution Control Board’s Northern Virginia Regional Office, wrote “it seems unlikely” that the objectionable smells would be coming from Front Royal "since the last complaint of odor in that area was received on June 28, 1979, and the odor that was noticed only persisted for a one-hour period." Doherty also noted that without specific dates and wind direction, it is impossible to investigate sources of an odor.) Hubert Gilkey, Wakefield District supervisor who lives at Chester Gap, acknowledged that hr frequently smelled Front Royal’s odors. “It woke me up—it was that strong,” he said of the stench that blew in immediately following a recent explosion at one of the town’s plants. “It does disturb me but I don’t know what we can do about it,” he said. Smell Of Money “In Front Royal, they call it the sweet smell of success,” said Kramer, in reference to the economy, Kramer countered. Although the supervisors declined to designate a representative to the special meeting with John Kearns, assistant director of the air pollution control region that —Rappahannock New* Photo/Daphne Hutchinson HERBERT BARKSDALE, a long time friend of 4H, hands a check for $3,000 to Jan Palmer, extension office secretary. The money will go to the new 4-H center currently under construction near Front Royal. Even with Barksdale’s generous contribution, and a $1,000 donation from the Rappahannock supervisors, the county’s goal for its share of the fund drive is still a long way off.

Judge Asked To Rule On Zoning Ordinance By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock N«*w» Staff Writer Circuit Court Judge Shore Robertsoil has been asked by the Rappahannock supervisors to rule on whether or not portions of the county's zoning ?*dinance are valid and enforceable. In a request for declaratory judgement filed Monday on behalf of the supervisors and zoning administrator Evan McNear, commonwealth's attorney Douglas Baumgardner petitions the judge to evaluate Article 6 (residential subdivision) of the zoning ordinance and if he finds the section valid and enforceable, to issue a permanent injunction against the Nationwide Pentacostal Evangelistic Association's use of its Castleton property for activities prohibited by the ordinance. At the same time, Baumgardner filed a motion for dismissal of the suit brought against the supervisors and McNear by Washington attorney David Konick on behalf of Alvin Grigsby, adjoining landowner to the NPEA’s property, on the grounds that Grigsby’s suit is moot with the request for declaratory judgement. The petition for a writ of mandamus filed by Knoick on December 22 alleges that the ' NPEA constructed buildings, operated a engaged in other activities in Fire Escape Gets Another Maybe From Supervisors By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock New* Staff Writer At 1981’s first meeting, the Rappahannock supervisors tackled a piece of very old business—a fire code violation first cited by the State Fire Marshal in 0> includes Rappahannock, Luke encouraged the board members to attend the session, scheduled for Friday, January 16, at 7:30 in the court house. According to Kramer, the purpose of the meeting to which all interested citizens are invited is discussion of the increased frequency of air pollution in Rappahannock County, sources and means of monitoring and correcting the offensive emissions. Kramer looseiy ciassmea the smell that has marred Washington’s air quality as sulfur dioxide. “Obviously, it’s not being produced by a Rappahannock County industry,” he concluded. CPR Classes Scheduled Special classes in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) will be given at the Sperryville fire house on January 12, 14 and 15, the Flint Mill fire house on January 19, 21 and 22 and the Amissville fire house on January 26, 27 and 28. The short course is aimed at the general public rather than rescue personnel. Through demonstration, individual practice and lecture it will teach how to administer emergency first aid until the ambulance arrives. The free classes will be held from 7 to 10 each evening. There will* be a small charge for text books. November, 1977, on the lack of a second floor fire escape from the courthouse. “There are things we need to smooth out in 1981 and the fire escape is one of them," announced chairman E. P. Luke. He questioned, however, the advisability of adding “a bunch of damn sticks” in the form of a wood fire escape that would ruin the charm of Washington’s historic courthouse. He maintained that whoever is awarded the construction contract should be required first to submit a sketch of plans for the fire escape to the supervisors for approval. Originally, Luke said, the board was told it must install a metal fire escape estimated to cost between $6,000 and $7,000. Then state regulations changed to allow wood fire escapes—est im ated at half that price—on historic buildings, according to the supervisor chairman. out now onen are we going to have to put it back?” asked Hubert Gilkey, Wakefield District supervisor who operates a construction business. Treated wood will last 30 years, Luke maintained. Wood requires more upkeep, Gilkey countered. “I think metal will be cheaper in the long run.” Luke agreed to check again the cost of a metal fire escape and bring information back to the board’s February meeting. Appraisal Extension According to the chairman’s report, circuit court judge Shore Robertson has approved a 90 day extension of the January deadline for completion of the county’s reassessment at 100 per cent fair market value. Luke emphasized that the extension covered just the time allowed for Jerry Hall, appraisor from the state office of taxation, to finish his survey of land parcels and structures. Supervisor H. B. Wood asked if the county could also get an extension to allow use of current figures rather than new appraised worth for next year's tax bills. Luke said he would determine whether old values could be retained for 1981. He also relayed a request from the directors of the Rappahannock National Bank that the supervisors' monthly sessions be changed to a date other than the first Monday so as not to conflict with bank .board meetings. “Why should we change for the board of directors of the bank when we haven’t changed for other people?" asked Gilkey, ending discussion on the request before it began. In other action, Luke was re-elected as chairman and J. R. Latham as vice-chairman of the board. Following approval of accounts, the supervisors retired into a 45 minute executive session on litigation with zoning administrator Evan McNear and commonwealth's attorney Douglas Baumgardner. Returning to open meeting, Luke announced that the supervisors had authorized Baumgardner to file pleadings in the suit brought recently against the county over the Nationwide Pentecostal Association’s campground. (See separate story.) Executive Meeting The Rappahannock supervisors met last Tuesday, December 30, in special closed session for two hours in the clerk’s office. Commonwealth’s attorney Douglas Baumgardner and zoning administrator Evan McNear attended the executive meeting with the five board members. According to chairman E. P. Luke, the session was called to discuss litigation and no action was taken. violation of Rappahannock’s zoning ordinance and asks the court to order the county to enforce its applicable zoning laws. No Uses Listed The NPEA's 9.05 acres on Route 622 were rezoned to residential subdivision from agriculture in 1976 as part of the Lindgren-Noce tract. In the request for declaratory judgement filed Monday, Baumgardner acknowledges that the zoning ordinance lists no uses allowed by right or by special exception in a residential subdivision (RS-1) zone and that the single use mentioned is residential, referred to only in the RS-1 statement of. intent. Further, he notes that the ordinance prohibits all uses Other than those “listed” as permitted in a specific district. According to the judgement request, zoning administrator Evan McNear, who issued the three building permits for structures on the NPEA property, maintains that all the activities cited in Grigsby's suit—excluding the ' operation of a campground—comply with the ordinance. Since his appointment as zoning administrator, McNear has allowed any activity in a residential subdivision (RS-1) zone that is permitted by the ordinance yn a r^wtentiat tR-t^ zone. In maintains it is illogical that a governing body would have created a zoning district with no uses allowed by right or with a special permit and claims that the identical statements of intent for both RS-1 and R-l is evidence of legislative intent to allow the same uses in both. (In R-l, churches are allowed by right and community buildings with a special permit.) The wining administrator alleges (fiat in all his actions relating to the NPEA, he acted in honesty, good faith and in reliance on the opinions of Rappahannock’s former commonwealth’s attorney, George Davis. No Duty To Enforce . Noting that they delegated zoning ordinance enforcement power to McNear, the supervisors allege in the judgement request that they do not have “a duty to enforce the Ordinance." They Spaghetti And # Volleyball The seventh grade’s annual spaghetti dinner has been rescheduled for Saturday, January 10, at the Rappahannock County Elementary School. Spaghetti, salad, bread and a beverage will be served from 5 to 7:30 p.m. at $3.50 for all-you-can-eat and $1.25 for children 10 and under. Proceeds will go towards the class trip to Williamsburg. Then next door at the high challenge the student AllStars to volleyball in a benefii game for the Williamsburg Trip. Admission is $1 and refreshments will be on sale during intermission. stipulate, however, that they will assist in implementing any court order relative to whether the NPEA has violated the county’s zoning laws. The supervisors and McNear raise doubts as to whether the zoning ordinance section on residential subdivisions (Article 6) is “valid, operable and enforceable” and also whether Article 6 deprives the NPEA of “reasonable use of its property.” In the judgement request, Baumgardner points out that the Virginia Code allows the court to consider prevention, restraint or correction of construction authorized by a building permit if a suit is filed within 15 days after the start of construction. He notes that no party filed suit within the 15 day period or filed an appeal of the zoning administrator's issuance of the building permits within the 30 day period set out by the Rappahannock zoning ordinance-. Baumgardner reports that lawyers for the NPEA as well as adjoining landowners to the NPEA property have asked that the zoning ordinance be amended to resolve doubts as to just what is and is not permitted on the 9.05 acres in question. But he notes that the supervisors have recently initiated a „ wputotrio ot4io«mce *■ reikw.

Steve Riehter Puts Poetrv To Music By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer “I was 13 when the Beatles came out. As soon as I saw them, I told my folks I wanted a guitar for my birthday. I m 30 now and I’ve been playing ever since.” Since that original turn-on by the four lads from Liverpool, Steve Righter has performed professionally with rock ’n’ roll bands in his hometown of Hampton, in Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Northern Virginia and D. C., all the while filling notebook after notebook with his original material. Now a lulltime carpenter, he lives in musical semi-retirement back in Harris Hollow with Margie, his wife and singing partner, and their two daughters. On summer nights, neighbors are lulled to sleep by the intertwining harmonies that float gently across the valley from the Righter’s front porch as they play at home ■for friends or just for each r ■ v fv? : ♦ other. Though Steve still toys with the idea of trying to find a publisher for his songs, he’s given up performing in smoke-filled bars and noisy clubs. He and Margie limit their public appearances to Sursum Corda’s annual fund raising talent show, delighting local audiences with tight harmonies reminiscent of Peter, Paul and Mary, Ian and Sylvia and the golden days of folk. "I love music but I hate the music industry,” Steve explained. “To be paid for singing, to go off and on for a certain amount of time is too much like a machine. It’s like communism. It only sounds good on paper. I no longer play professionally. It offer ds my artistic sensibilities. It makes my stomach turn.” Steve’s biggest complaint is with audiences. They don’t pay attention unless they recognize the performer or at least the tune. “It’s very frustrating to sing your heart out to people who won’t even go to the trouble to listen,’ Righter said. “Two summers ago we me an old high school friertd wh< wanted to manage Steve. H< tried to push Steve intc publishing, to get him intc places in Washington,’ Margie recalled. The end of the drive foi stardom came in an Alexandria club. Steve had just completed a set, putting everyything he had into the delivery of the original songs he’d struggled so hard to give birth to. There was absolute quiet from the audience. The only applause came from the bartender and waitresses. That reaction marked the finish of his professional career as a performer. “Steve was putting money and time into something and getting hurt in return,” Margie said. Poet With Guitar But he kept on penning original compositions, writing well over 150 numbers to date. “I’m not a musician,” CTFI/r A TVTT\ A nn tr Rappahannock News Photo/Daphne Hutchinson STEVE AND MARGIE RIGHTER do most of their performing in the living room of the little house Steve built in Harris Hollow.

' Steve joked. “I‘m a poet who used a guitar to keep myself in tune.” > He began writing songs almost as soon as he started strumming a guitar. After his parents gave him his first instrument, he sent away for a teach-it-to-yourself course. “You know the kind they advertise in comic books. ‘Learn to play the guitar in just seven days’ ”. He laughed. “Don’t you believe it!” Calluses on his fingers had a lot longer than seven days to develop before Righter mastered chord changes. “I was fortunate to have friends who were learning at the same time. It made everything piuch easier. When you have competition to motivate you, you learn a lot faster.” Three months later, he began writing songs as well, “It’s not something you do because you want |o do it. It’s something you do because you have j to,” he explained. He and his friends organized a band that played local spots in the Tidewater area, featuring Righter’s original works. "Artiscally, I was one of the leaders in the band but emotionally, I was the most unstable,” he said. According to Meve, his artistics talents are tied directly to his emotional instability. “That sounds silly—it sounds like you’re saying you were crazy or something,” Margie interjected. “It’s true. My emotions were beyond my control,” Steve countered, explaining that loss of emotional control helped him to create. "Art is beyond words. That’s what art is—feelings and expressions beyond the spoken language,” he said. In addition to composing much of the material played by that first band, Steve was also the group’s lead singer. “I was the only one who could remember the words,” he joked.

He explained that his songs begin with an emotion—the way he feels about Margie, depression about life, his job, even the weather. The emotion evolves into a few phrases that Steve reworks over and over again until they begin to make sense. “Once I establish what the song is about, that’s where skill comes in—the turning of a piece of raw emotion into something coherent.” Righter has scores and scores of songs, some in old notebooks dating back to his teenage years. He never throws anything he’s written away and often sits down to retrace his musical history and growth through the lyrics he’s composed over the past 17 years. “It’s hard to believe there’s that many rhymes in the world,” he chuckled. Steve ushered Margie into tne musical world. The two met in Falls Church where she had grown up and gone to school, married and moved to Richmond. “We didn't really want to live there but we Ij-new for sure we didn’t wanf to stay in Falls Church,” Steve recalled. During their sojurn in Virginia’s capital, Steve entered an apprentice carpenter’s program and later met Terry Waggener, another Rappahannock musician, through friends in Culpeper. Terry was restoring a cabin outside of Washington at that time and told Righter there were jobs in the county for him. “I didn’t like working on skyscrapers anyway so we moved up here,” Steve recalled. It was after they came to Rappahannock that Margie began signing with Steve. “He made me do it,” she. maintained. “I clubbed her over the head,” Steve agreed. Margie said she’d played the piano as a child and had always loved music and art—“anything artistic. I think that’s one reason why I like Steve so much.” With her appreciation and fondness for music, it didn’t take much clubbing before Margie added her voice to Steve’s. “But I only sing songs I can relate to personally. I have to feel it a little bit," she emphasized. She also had to overcome natural shyness before she could join him on the stage, a first that occurred at 1980’s Rappahannock All-Star Review, the annual talent show put on by Sursum Corda school. “Someone told me I looked like I needed a drink," ' Margie said, remembering the nervousness she felt at her debut. She once was bashful about even accompanying her husband on his performing dates. She recalled one engagement in a D. C. bar when Steve sang a number he’d written about her. The song repeated her name—Margie, Margie, Margie—and asked where she was now. Margie admitted to fading further and further into the back of the club with each repetition, afraid that someone would guess she was the lady in the song. Many of Righter’s songs revolve around his feelings for Margie. Others tell of the major crossroads in his his life. “How did I get here? Everything is strange. How did I get here. There’s got to be a change,” goes a piece he composed during a rainy afternoon in Flint Hill. The song goes on to say that “you don’t know what you’re losing til you’re out of time” and calls for “changes while you’re still young.” It ends by asking for a light to shine “on my life and the race I’m trying to run.” “1 felt terrible when I wrote that,” Steve said as he put down his guitar, the echoes of his duet with Margie’s high, sweet tones still hanging in the air of their living room. "1 was trying to decide whether to pursue a musical career or go into contracting business on my own." He opted for his own construction business while Margie began beautician’s school in Front Royal where she’ll graduate this June. Although music takes up a big space in their lives, they've cleared room for more practical careers. Still, they continue to hope that Steve will someday have his work published. Margie’s ; favorite, a song that showcases her voice and one Steve claims she “stole” from him says it perfectly: “1 know I’m just a dreamer...I know somehow all the pieces will fall right into place.” Immediate health care without reservation?

WHOLESALE VS RETAIL LAND I In the normal marketplace, there are two price levels wholesale and retail. The purchase and sale of raw land is no different. A review of the sales price history of any large parcel of land will show abrupt little jumps as the acreage is subdivided and sold off in smaller lots. Much of this increase is due to the cost of improvements such as sewers, streets, sidewalks, and utilities. But increases of this sort are also due to the wholesale-retail marketing structure of the world. Therefore, consider bulk buying of land at a wholesale level a good way to buy. It may take the pooling of several financial sources (partners, for example). But if ten acres are available for $5,000 per acre, then forty acres may be available for $4,000 per acre if you are buying from one seller. Conversely, assemblage, which is the act of buying a group of small parcels to make up one large parcel, can prove very costly because the buyer will have to pay retail prices.

Mon,-Fri Published by Warrenton Printing & Publishing Company, Inc Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation THURSDAY, JANUARY 8,1981 Rare Opportunity Circuit Court Judge Shore Robertson will be at the court house on January 12 to give Rappahannock residents the rare opportunity of commenting on appointments to one of the county’s governmental bodies. This is the second date Judge Robertson has set for meeting with local people to get their reactions to nominations from the supervisors for appointments to the board of zoning appeals. Turnout for the first on December 24 was disappointing, partially attributed to the Christmas holiday, partially to the influenza epidemic sneezing and coughing its way across the county, partially to the freezing rain that turned roads into ice rinks and partially to the same apathy that keeps people away in droves from meetings of the supervisors, planning commission and BZA. The Judge didn’t have to schedule the first appointment for hearing citizen comment, much less the second. He didn’t even have to solicit nominations from the supervisors. According to law, Judge Robertson didn’t have to ask anyone’s advice on naming members of the BZA. We applaud his decision to solicit public response. The standard practice here is for vacancies on local boards to be announced and filled in the same breath. There’s usually no time for comment, only for grumbling after tHe dust settles around the newest appointee. Judge Robertson has done his part in making government responsible to the people. Now it’s up to the people to do theiT*. , i . ,...i ii ..in i mil i.m -- i-~ ,tf Ml now who’ve Comptatnea Ian the ’ past about lack of input in decisions of local government have an obligation to take advantage ol this golden opportunity. They should be at the court house at 3 p.m. on Monday to either support or oppose the appointment of George Davis from Hampton District and the reappointments of George Davis from Hampton District and the reappointments of George Muth from Stonewall-Hawthome and Charles Estes from Piedmont. In many counties, the board of zoning appeals is just that—an appeals board that hears only appeals of decisions made by others. Here in Rappahannock, however, the BZA serves almost a legislative function by issuing special use permits and variances to the county’s zoning law. In the past, the county has found itself embroiled in litagation arising from decisions made by the BZA. This happened with P.E. Steve Dement’s Sperryville antique business, with the Harris Hollow ski area and proposed Alpine Slide, and most recently with the Nationwide Pentacostal Evangelistic Association’s Castleton campground. Time after time, the BZA has issued permits after-the-fact for construction that was already completed. In other cases, permits have been granted on the basis of hardship when not a shred of evidence has been presented which would demonstrate hardship and when the only mention of the word came in the BZA’s motion to grant the permit request. The appointments Judge Robertson makes will have an impact on the future of Rappahannock County. He’s _ Bftcn. to watA at the court house with something constructive to say. Smelly Business Residents of Flint Hill, Huntly and Chester Gap will wrinkle their noses in disbelief when they learn of the report from the air pollution board director on the purity of Front Royal’s air. In response to complaints about air pollution blown into Washington, Northern Virginia’s regional director John Doherty questioned whether or not the offensive stench comes from the town across the mountain. According to Doherty, the last complaint of odor in Front Royal was received on June 28, 1979. If there have been no complaints since then, it means only that the folks there have either grown used to the rotten odors or have had their olfactory nerves completely destroyed. We have news for Mr. Doherty. We visit Front Royal at least once a week and on practically every occasion, we’ve had to put up with offensive odors during our stay in town. There are little pockets between Washington and Amissville where Front Royal’s heady industrial aromas hang in the air almost constantly. Every time the north wind blows, residents of Chester Gap, Huntly, Flint'Hill and more recently, Washington need gas masks before they can enjoy the out-of-doors. If they aren’t complaining any more, it’s not because the “sweet smell of success” belched out of the town’s industrial plants has disappeared. Maybe there’s another reason why those concerned about air pollution have dropped their voices. The answer may lie in the remarks of one of Rappahannock’s supervisors when asked if he was disturbed by the odors carried by the wind into his backyard at Chester Gap. “It does disturb me but I don’t know what we can do about it,” stated Hubert Gilkey. Well, there ought to be something we can do about it. According to Doherty, it is not possible to investigate sources of an odor without knowing the specific date on which the smell was perceived and the wind direction on those days. If we want to fight the air pollution that is creeping into Rappahannock County, we can start by keeping a log of what we smell, when we smell it and in which direction the wind is blowing. Secondly, we can attend the special meeting with air pollution board personnel on January 16 at 7:30 in the Rappahannock County courthouse in Washington and encourage our supervisor representatives to do the same. The session will present an opportunity to learn if the stench wafting into our county is related to acid rain and if waivers have been granted to any of Front Royal’s industries on meeting provisions of the federal Clean Air Act. One of Rappahannock’s most precious natural resources is in jeopardy. If we meet this challenge with apathy, we don’t deserve to keep it. Players Set Founders Meet The official founders meeting of the Rappahannock Players will be held at the county library in Washington on Thursday, January IS, at 7:30 p.m. All those persons attending and desiring to join the new organization dedicated to “providing theatrical entertainment for the community and enjoyment for ourselves” may become “founding members.” This distinction will entitle them to certain advantages to be described later. Membership will involve dues not to exceed SS. The by-laws committee of the temporary organization will formally introduce byT laws which were presented at the last meeting. The Rappahannock Players will be a non-profit corporation. The facility to be used by the Players will be the Mountain Magic Theater. At least two productions are contemplated annually. The selection committee is currently examining a wide range of vehicles for production. Temporary officers elected at the Players’ preliminary session are president Steve Hostetter, vice-president Bob Mahlbacker, treasurer Keeton Barnes, secretary Mitzie Young. There are no residence, talent or experience requirements for membership since many different skills are needed, including administrative know-how, managerial ability, publicity, lighting, scene design and execution, costume design and sewing, make-up, and musical talent, both instrumental and voice. Anyone interested in any of these areas is welcome to attend the founders meeting on January IS. ++++ An octopus is timid, says National Geographic World magazine.

Our Rappahannock Heritage General Assembly Faces Budget By BOB BUNNELL Arundel Newspaper* Staff Adoption of a mini-budget and redistricting—tasks particularly susceptible to excesses in political partisanship—appear to be the major issues facing the Virginia General Assembly as it prepares to convene Jan. 14 in Richmond. The 140 legislators will divide approximately $180 million in anticipated state revenues beyond the $11.7 billion appropriated in 1980 during the first year of the state’s two-year budgeting cycle. likewise the legislature is required by the state constitution to redraw districts this year for the Senate, House of Delegates and Virginia’s 10 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives. In addition to the predominant issues facing the legislature, more than 400 pieces of legislation have been carried over from 1980 and 1,000 more have been prefiled for the 1981 session. Some legislators think that is too much work Judge To Interpret (Continued from Page 1) interest” and therefore, the supervisors have declined to enact amendments to the residential subdivision < district at this time. (In July, at the request of the supervisors, the county planning commissioners drew up and recommended for adoption an amendment to the zoning ordinance which added uses allowed by right and with special permit, minimum lot size and revisions in the statement of intent to the RS-1 district. Neither churches nor public buildings were listed as permitted either by ri*ht or \ by special permit. The supervisors tabled the amendment without acting on the planning commission’s recommendation.) Advice Sought In the request for declaratory judgement, Baumgardner maintains that the continuing controversy over the NPEA’s property entitles the supervisors and the zoning administrator “to relief from the court in the form of advice and guidance” and to a permanent injunction against the NPEA if warranted by the evidence. The request for declaratory judgement poses several questions for Judge Robertson to answer: 4-H Skating Night Every Thursday during 1981 from 7:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. has been designated 4-H Skating Night at Dominion Skating Center, Vi mile north of Culpeper on Route 229. The SI.50 fee includes admission and skate rental. All Rappahannock 4-H members and their friends are invited to attend. 4-H members must present their membership cards, which are available at the Rappahannock Extension Office in Washington. All children are eligible to become 4-H members. You may pick up one of these cards at the Extension Office, or call at 675-3619 and we will be glad to send you one. Anderson Completes Basic Airman William M. Anderson, son of Mr. and Mrs. William L. Anderson of Amissville, has been assigned to Keesler Air Force Base, Miss., after completing Air Force basic training. During the six weeks at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas, Anderson studied the Air Force mission, Qrganization and customs and received special training in human relations. In addition, with the completion of basic training, he earned credits toward an associate degree in applied science through the Community College of the Air Force. Anderson will now receive specialized instruction in the communications-electronics systems field. —What rights, if any, does he ordinance and paricularly Article 6 confer ipon the NPEA in respect to ;he use of its property? —Have past activities of the NPEA on its 9.05 acres violated the ordinance? —Assuming the ordinance does not allow for the activities pursued in the past by the NPEA, is Article 6 valid, operable and enforceable? If it’s not valid, what effect does that finding have on the NPEA’s use of its property? —If the ordinance does not give the NPEA the right to use its property as it has in the ' ' 'eMiitnvfnti ’ IHt ordinance is valid, do provisions of the Virginia Code preclude the zoning administrator and other parties from taking action to enforce the ordinance as to construction and other activities on the NPEA property? —Who has the duty to enforce the zoning ordinance? Must this duty be exercised by the zoning administrator or is the board of supervisors the proper party to initiate such action? The judgement request asks the court to rule on the validity of the ordinance as it applied to the NPEA’s property, provide the supervisors and McNear with advice and guidance on the discharge of their duties and, if warranted, “enter an injunction permanently restraining the NPEA from engaging in any activities found by the Court to be in violation of the Ordinance.” Preliminary hearing on the request for declaratory judgement will probably be set for Monday, March 9, circuit court term date. Bischoff To Speak On Silver Values Mrs. Pipsie Bischoff, known to most Rappahannock people for her prowess as a tennis player, is also a recognized appraiser of silver with special emphasis on antique work. She will present a program on this topic at the library in Washington on Wednesday, January 21, at 7:30 p.m. In addition to examining some of the treasures brought in by her audience, she will discuss how to learn more &6out family heirlooms and other silver pieces through research materials which may be obtained from the library. Even amateurs, according to Bischoff, can examine an object with regard to its condition, a workmanship and design and can soon learn how to identify marks, country and period of origiij. More professional skills may be required to determine the rarity of the piece and often it is upon this that the value will depend. Bischoff will explain also how to compute troy ounces, the measurement used for silver, and how they relate to ounces and pounds. Bischoff finds silver appraisal a challenging field, time consuming but rewarding. She related one incident in which she copied the marks from some Spanish colonial silver and sent the reproduction to Christie’s for an expert opinion on its value. Their judgement was that while it was unusual, there was no demand for the old silver and therefore, it was worth little more than its melt down value. Unsatisfied with the evaluation, Bischoff pursued the subject, learning that the remainder of the set of plates and bowls which she was to appraise was still in Guatemala. Further research revealed that it was from the late 17th century and that instead of value estimated at $4,800 per piece, it was really valued at thousands more with one piece alone worth $6,300. The public is invited to attend Bischoffs special program on silver appraising which will begin at 7:30. -lUppahaaaodi Non To—« SILVER APPRAISER Pipsie Bischoff looks over reference m«nn.l. and other tools of the trade that she’ll bring to the Rappahannock County Library’s special program on January 21. f for this 30-day “short” session, originally conceived to handle supplementary appropriations, carryover legislation and emergency needs only. Until 1971, the General Assembly met on even numbered years only, but the revised state constitution adopted that year called for 60-day “long” sessions in even numbered years and 30day sessions on other years. Either session may be extended by up to 30 days, and this year senate and house leaders are planning on a session of at least 38 days to finish the legislatives work. “I’m doing everything I can to keep legislation at a minimum," said Del. Alson Hv Smith Jr., D-17th (Winchester). Many representatives are bringing only a few bills to Richmond. Elections In Air Efforts to keep the workload down may be hampered in the 1981 session by the imminence of elections this fall for the House of Delegates and three statewide offices. Democrats, who control both houses of the General Assembly, are likely to remember the active role R«p«bUtm"Owv-.- Jottn N. Dalton took in ttttempfin^'Wr send Democrats to defeat in the 1979 elections, making them and their Republican opponents eager to win political points in the legislative session which promises high visibility to public and media. Already both parties are organizing extensively for the upcoming campaign for governor in which Democratic Lt. Gov. Charles Robb is expected to take on Attorney General J. Marshall Coleman 'ji a spirited contest. Despite the prospect of elections—considered especially important to the Democrats, who have fared poorly in statewide races for more than a decade —legislators from both parties have said the issues facing the state will get the kind of bipartisan approach they need to be dealt with effectively. The 100 members of the House and 40 Senators will devote many of their energies in the first week of the session to legislation carried over from 1980. Most ot the proposals are expected to die quick deaths, including attempts to strengthen the state’s conflict of interest laws for members of the legislature and statewide office holders, a proposed constitutional amendment limiting state spending and measures calling for popular election of school boards, creation of a Judicial Nominations Commission to assist in selection of judges and single-member districts in the House of Delegates. Also left over from last year are bills that would raise the drinking age for beer from 18 to either 19 or 20, revisions of the state’s criminal statutes concerning rape and parole and repeals of the sales tax on food and non-prescription drugs. Farmer* Seek Help Farmers and other agricultural interests are asking for help from the legislature after suffering through one of their worst years in the state since the Depression. Sen. Charles Waddell, D33rd (Loudoun), chairman of a subcommittee studying Virginia’s horse industry, said he will propose that the state .spend up to $100,060' frftm the expected s«rtphrt“ftrr" a horse breeder incentive program. Breeders of top quality horses in the state could compete for cash prizes, as they do in 31 other states, Waddell said. Any contribution by the state to the program would have to be matched by the Virginia horse industry, which injects $171 million into the state’s economy annually and employs 20,000 persons. Del. Earl E. Bell, D-20th (Loudoun), said a committee studying methods of agricultural land preservation will deliver an interim report this year and continue its work for presentation at the 1982 session. The House Agriculture Committee, on which Bell sits, may become a co-patron of the farmland preservation bill that spurred creation of the study commission in the 1980 session, Bell said. Bell said he will introduce a resolution this year aimed at helping localities offset revenue ^reductions from “homes’! exemptions to local real estate taxes. Letters To The Editor Thanks, Lions To The Lions Club: I would like to thank the Lions Club for sponsoring a free movie for the youth of Rappahannock. I attended this delightful movie at the Mountain Magic Cinema in Washington on December 29. I enjoyed the movie very much and I am sure that everyone who attended did also. Thanks again, Lions Clubl DORETHA BUTLER Propaganda To the editor: The recent deaths of John Lennon, Dr. Halberstram and others at the hands of criminal assassins have unleashed a new barrage of anti-gun propaganda. The fuzzy minded liberals and their more clear thinking radical friends of the left are dusting off and employing the same old time-worn cliches and emotional appeals which have been used over and over in the past so often that they really don’t deserve serious consideration. As is patently clear, disarming the citizens of this country will certainly not reduce the incidents of crime but on the contrary will encourage the criminal by rendering his victim defenseless. One doesn’t have to be a Harvard graduate to understand this so what is it that motivates the gun control crowd? Perhaps the answer can be found in the word “control”. Historically it has been demonstrated that to impose dictatorship on a populace there are several factors which must be controlled, which include the police force, the citizen’s arms and his mobility. Of these gun control is the most important as illustrated by the fact that one of Hitler’s first acts in solidifying his control over the German people was to confiscate tneir arms. The founding fathers dearly foresaw this, danger, when they added the Second Amendment to the Constitution which states in no uncertain terms that “the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed”. The intent and meaning of this statement is clear regardless of any interpretations made by leftists, lawyers and Supreme Court judges. We, the citizens, will maintain our Second Amendment rights at all costs and we expect our elected representatives to live up to their oath of office and protect that Constitutional right.

MOODYi Funeral Service Inc. it29N Calpeper,VA Foot Facts by Dr. Bruce Vogel Podiatrist Foot specialist MORTON’S NEUROMA A very common complaint seen by many doctors is a burning, cramping sensation that occurs in the foot usually when the patient is wearing shoes. The patient may complain of a cramping in the toes (usually the third and fourth), a tingling in the toes, or a severe pain in the bottom of the foot itself, where the two toes join the foot. Removing the shoes and rubbing seems to be helpful. An enlarged nerve that lies between two bones is usually the culprit. It gets pinched and can cause the symptoms There are various treatments that can be tried such as medication in the area, rebalancing the foot, or physical therapy. If these do not work the enlarged nerve must be removed. A public service with the aim of promoting a better foot health environment from the office of Or. B. Vogel, 85 Garret St., 347-9393.

The Special Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC Program) is proving that preventive health care is most cost-beneficial than cure. A Harvard University study found that for every dollar spent on a WIC participant, three dollars are saved that would be spent toward hospitalizing a lowbirth-weight newborn and its mother. The study also showed that pregnant women receiving WIC foods had fewer lowbirth-weight babies than a similar group of eligible mothers not enrolled in the Program. Low-birth-weight results in a longer hospital stay for the mother and baby, and often results in disabilities requiring long-range treatment. It is an established causative factor in cerebral palsy, and has been suspected in epilepsy and various forms of mental retardation. Deaths of lowbirth-weight infants during the first 28 days of life are 30 RAY T. CANNON CO., INC.

Created to meet the needs of this high risk population, the WIC Program is available in each of Virginia’s local health departments. WIC provides supplemental foods to pregnant, postpartum and breastfeeding women, infants and children up to age five, who have a nutritional need and are income eligible. Its goal is to serve as an adjunct to good health care during these critical periods of growth and development to help prevent health problems and improve the health status of these persons. Pregnant, postpartum and breastfeeding women and children under age five receive food packages, which include milk, cheese, eggs, vitamin C-rich fruit juice, and iron-fortified cereal. For infants, WIC provides ironfortified infant formula, ironfortified baby cereal and fruit juice. In addition to foods, WIC also provides nutrition education to teach participants how to plan, prepare and maintain a wellbalanced diet. In late November, Congress approved legislation to extend the WIC Program through September 1984, but current funding limitations have restricted Program expansion. As a result, maximum caseload levels have been assigned to all of the State’s health districts, and will be in effect until the Fall of 1981. Eligible persons with the greatest need will be served to the extent possible with available funds, particularly pregnant and breastfeeding women and infants. WIC Program food cannot be counted as income when applying for other^ kinds of Federal assistance, and will not affect a family’s qualifications for food stamps, school food programs or public assistance. The Program is available to eligible persons regardless of race, color, religion or national origin.

Hundley manager in Culpeper, said recently. But, they can earn this protection only if they report those tips to their employer as the law requires. Cash tips, when added to regular wages, can mean higher cash - benefits for the worker and his or her family in the future, Hundley said. Cash tips amounting to $20 or more in a month in a person’s work for one employer count for social security. Tips received in a form other than cash do not count. A person who splits or shares tips with others where he or she works should count only the amount he or she finally receives. If the employer charges a service charge and divides it among employees, the part received is not a tip. It is a part of regular wages and should not be reported. A worker is required to give his or her employer a written report of tips if they add up to $20 or more in a month. The report is due within 10 days after the end of the month, but an employer can require reports more often. Forms 4070 (Employee’s Report of Tips) are available at any Internal Revenue Service Office to make reports. Booklet 5635 is available at the same office' for workers to keep a record of tips and reports. Other forms can be used if they contain the same information. If tip reports are incomplete or late, the worker may have to pay a penalty amounting to one-half of the social security taxes due. A worker who does not report all tips to his or her employer will have to report them directly to the Internal Revenue Service on Form 4137 when his or her Federal income tax return is filed. More information about cash tips is contained in the leaflet, “Social security and cash tips.” Free copies can be obtained at the Culpeper social security office, located at 522 Culpeper Shopping ^ Center. The telephone number is (703) 825-3500. Revaccinalion Of Young Dogs Any dog that receives a rabies vaccination at less than 12 months of age should be revaccinated one year later, according to a resolution passed by the State Board of Health. The resolution supports the State Board of Agriculture and Consumer Services in its recognition of the recommendations for vaccine use in the National Association of State Public Health Veterinarian’s Compendium of Animal Rabies Vaccines. Grayson B. Miller, Jr., M.D., State Epidemiologist, explained, “Rabies is virtually always fatal. The risk of transmitting rabies to humans has been considerably reduced by the active immunization program for dogs carried on by veterinarians practicing in the State. Any dog that receives rabies vaccine prior to one year of age may not develop sufficient antibodies against the disease and should be revscclnsted one year after the first injection^* State law requires dgg^ix months of age and older to be licensed and immunized against rabies. During 1980, a total of 6,079 cases of rabies in animals have been reported in the United States, including 29 cases in Virginia. No cases of rabies have occurred in humans this year; however, approximately 20,000 to 30,000 persons are treated nationwide for possible rabies exposure each year.
