Latham FOR THEIR YEARS OF DEDICATED SERVICE to the Rappahannock Hunt, Jim Bill and Millie Fletcher were recently honored with a party and were presented the oil painting for him and a gold necklace with engraved medallion for her. The gathers took place September 19 at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Avery Faulkner near Woodville. Fletchers Honored With Appreciation Party Mr. and Mrs. James W. Fletcher of Sperryville were honored with a lawn party at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Avery Faulkner near Woodville on September 19 in recognition of their thirtyone years as master and benefactor of the Rappahannock Hunt. Jim Bill was presented a portrait of himself in full hunting attire, mounted on his great gray mare, Katie. The portrait, painted by an outstanding Polish equestrian artist, Andrzej NovakZemplinski, was com-, missionedhty Rappahannock' Hunt members and long-time followers and friends, who V _ wished to express their gratitude to Jim Bill for the rare and zesty sport he has shown them as master, according to Hunt secretary Sally Cunningham. At the same time, his wife, Millie, was given a gold pendant bearing the unique Rappahannock Hunt running fox, in appreciation for three decades of joyful and boundless hospitality, before, during and after all those rollicking days of chasing fox, hounds and master up j^nd down Rappahannock’s mountains, added Mrs. Cunningham. “A grand assembly of friends and fellow hunters, past and present, were there to toast Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher. Among this gathering were many who play an important role in the foxhunting tradition in this part of Virginia: Mrs. A. C. Randolph, Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Durant, Mr. and Mrs. Jack DeBergh, Jack Bruce, Mr. and Mrs. James Jamieson, Mr. and Mrs. Newbill Miller, Mr. and Mrs. Witold Kuncewicz; Rappahannock's new joint masters, J. A. Bernard Dahlgren, Larry LeHew and their wives, and SO many more”, said Ms. Cunningham. She continues, “There was much reminiscing, and many a great fox tale was unraveled and enjoyed. Laughter echoed as Jim Bill Fletcher took the microphone and remembered the truly great moments of sport and fox hunting fun!” “It was a gala celebration—a great time was had by all. And for all of us who pursue fox hunting today, there was a spirit of inspiration to continue Jim Bill Fletcher’s traditions of exciting sport, hearty fun and the joys of sharing it all with fellow enthusiasts”, Sally concluded. J At Circuit Court Douglas Granted Continuance By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Ra|»|»ahann<K'k Staff Writer Stressing a defendant’s right to a full and fair hearing. Circuit Court Judge Shore Robertson Wednesday reluctantly granted Ernest Lee Douglas a continuance on charges that he maliciously wounded Peter Marx in an incident which occurred November 18, 1979, near Washington. Jurors and witnesses had been summoned for the trial which was set for two days. —Rappahannock Nf«. Photo/T.

Joyce and Irvin each completed special projects for the Livestock Club and won awards at the CulpeperMadison-Rappahannock Farm Show in July. Joyce is the president of the Livestock Club. See special 4-H section on pages 5,6, and 7. September 23 and 24. Proceedings have been delayed repeatedly over the past two years, first for three separate mental examinations to determine Douglas' competency to stand trial. The case finally was scheduled to go forward last year but charges were nol prossed when Marx, the chief complaining witness, refused to appear in court. Then commonwealth's attorney Douglas Baumgardner brought the case back before the grand jury in August for a new indictment after Douglas, a resident of the Richmond area, returned to the county and moved into Marx’s home near Washington. (Marx now resides in Northern Virginia.) Although Douglas has insisted on representing himself in court, he has agreed to consult with an attorney in the current round of legal proceedings. Dudley Payne, Douglas’ court appointed lawyer, told Judge Robertson Wednesday that his client wanted a continuance in order to secure three sets of documents that will enable him to impeach his chief accuser. Peter Marx. The documents include mental reports of Douglas from three institutions, records from U. S. District Court in Richmond and copies of court records from earlier legal proceedings in Rappahannock Circuit Court. "What he would really like is for the commonwealth to put on its case today and give him a 30 days continuance to prepare his case,” Payne said. Really John D. Marx He explained that Douglas maintains Peter Marx is not actually Peter Marx; that he’s really John David Marx, free-lance writer and author who formerly had a weekend residence in Orlean. According to Payne, Douglas claims that one week prior to his shooting Marx, this John David Marx tried to kill him and then made (Continued on Page 4) Benefit Bull Roast Scheduled The Washington Vol. Fire Department will sponsor a benefit Bull Roast on Saturday, October 3 at the new fire house ground in the edge of town.

Proposed Design For Sperryville Sewer Rejected By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rapinhanmx-k Nrw» Staff Writer a meeting in Richmond oi^Monday, the Virginia Hcpth Department and State W«ter Control Board turned thumbs down> on a proposal for a mound-type sewage treatment system for the community in Sperryville. In essence, the proposed system consisted of a septic leJt|h field built up into a mound. With the design, raw serfage that now flows directly into the Thornton River was to be collected in individual septic tanks for the first stage of treatment and then pumped for final treatment to the mound located on five acres owned by the Rappahannock Water and Sewer Authority in Sperryyille’s flood plain. It was the location that brought a negative reaction from the health department and SWCB. By the admission of engineers for the project, the sewage treatment facility could be inoperable as much as 20 percent of the time, due to high water in the flood plain. Representatives from Buchart-Horn, designers of the proposed facility, had sought approval of the technology employed for the Sperryville project before proceeding further on the contract. “We’re looking for something more reliable in the long term,” explained Stu Wilson of the SWCB. Treatment only 80 to 90 percent of the time is not acceptable to either the „S1J£C^ or health department, he said. In addition, Wilson noted that Buchart-Horn engineers had not followed the Wisconsin manual for design, the model used in Virginia for mounds. If designed properly and located on a site that isn’t flood prone, a mound system to serve Sperryville would be acceptable, according to the SWCB representative. Either-Or Question As the result of an earlier March 3 meeting here with the health department, SWCB personnel and members—since resigned—of Rappahannock’s Water and Sewer Authority, BuchartHorn engineer Hank Gerhart said he thought the Sperryville project was an ’’either-or” proposition. "Either treatment 80 to 90 percent of the time or no treatment at all,” he said. Gerhart explained at Monday’s special Richmond session that he based his conclusion on the WSA’s position that Sperryville residents couldn’t afford any more than $15 or $16 monthly fees for sewage disposal. That type of rate schedule was only possible if a mound system was built on land already owned by the authority, he said. Gerhart added that he’d expected a yes or no answer on the proposed mound design much earlier. “Now you say that a mound is accept&ble if it's on a different site and if it's operable more than 80 to 90 percent of the time?” “With proper design and site, was the acceptance of a mound system ever in doubt?” asked SWCB representative Steve Hogye. “Yes sir,” Gerhart replied, noting that he’d received correspondence two years ago on a state health department letterhead which held any alternative design for sewage treatment to be unacceptable. Cal Sawyer, health department wastewater engineer, countered that he didn’t know who wrote the letter to Gerhart but that the statement quoted was never made as a matter of health department policy. Referring to the possibility of locating a mound system elsewhere than on WSA property, Buchart-Horn engineer Bob Deimer noted that soils in the Sperryville area are rated “at best as marginal sites for subsurface treatment." Bob Dennis, WSA secretary-treasurer who attended the Richmond meeting with Carson Johnson, Donald Gore and Clifford Miller, emphasized that the new WSA members want to move Sperryville’s long delayed sewer project ahead. “We need to take an understanding of the real world options to our board of supervisors, the community and a public hearing." Dennis noted that a discharge permit from the SWCB issued to the Bear Island paper mill allowed different discharge levels of waste based on stream flow. (Continued on Page 2) Post Office Moves Oct. 7 Moving days are always hectic, whether it's mom and the van lines packing household furnishings or postmaster Carol Miller and postal clerk Dorothy Hawkins crating up all the equipment, stamps, papers and hundreds of other items in the Washington Post Office. Next Wednesday, October 7, the window will close at 12:30 for the last time at the old brick building on Main Street and when the post office reopens at 1 p.m., it will be in sparkling new quarters next door to Nature’s Foods in the remodeled complex that once housed Merrill's garage. Habits are hard to leave behind and so postmaster Miller is working to accommodate Washington patrons. All the numbers on small boxes will stay the same but due to the design of the box nest, numbers on all large and most medium sized boxes will be changed. The postmaster will have all numbers assigned by the end of this week and advises patrons to stop by and pick up the information on their revised addresses. The curtain that will close off the workroom from the lobby in the new office is on order and expected to arrive before the move, according to Miller. ‘‘We’re doing everything we can to get it in time but if we can't, the lobby will have to be locked at 5 p.m.,” she noted. — Rappahannock New* Photna/S l.atham CHECKING HIS GLIDER prior to flight Tuesday, Nelson Lane makes sure all lines and guides are intact. Hang Gliding Nelson Lane Has His Head In The Clouds By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Staff Writer Look! Up in the air. It's a bird! It's a plane—No, it’s hang glider man! The yellow and black apparition that’s been streaking across the heavens over Rappahannock since Sunday is Nelson Lane’s Quicksilver, a motorized hang glider that’s the newest adventure toy on the market. “It’s the neatest thing I’ve ever done! It feels so right!” Lane announced, still exhilarated after four hours in the air on Tuesday. "I went over Old Rag this morning. Way above—my hands got numb, it was so cold. I flew over Etlan, over Sperryville. I buzzed Pete Estes pretty hard and I buzzed the hell out of Ned Johnson’s! I touched my wheels to the tassels in a cornfield.” Lane is as excited as a little kid with his first bicycle, pointing out all the finer points of his new machine. ‘‘It’s cool looking,” he maintained, noting the flashy dacron sail cloth wings stretched over aluminum tubing, the shock absorbers on the 30 horse power twin cylinder air-cooled engine. “Pilot Magazine lists this model as having the best safety record. Look at it—you can tell it has a lot of stability. But it’s still a little spooky,” he admitted. Lane first heard about motorized gliders from Jeb Carney, a fellow hang gliding enthusiast. Carney later gave him the name of an outfit in Maryland that sold the machines. After checking out all their brochures and printed sales pitches, he visited the distributer, spending a total of just 35 minutes airborn in test runs. "I tried hang gliding in Aspen five years ago. 1 only achieved a stall but I got the feel of it. I’d dream about it so much, flew it in my mind so many times that I was prepared,” Lane explained. His quick study was enough. Last Tuesday, he went back to Maryland with S4.000 and returned home to Eldon Farms in Woodville with his motorized hang glider kit. "Then I had four intense days of deciphering before I could put^the thing together.” Quicksilver looks like a miniature airplane without a cockpit, at least to those who have a fear of flying so intense that it’s kept them from even examining a plane very closely. Instead of strapping into a cockpit, the pilot hangs below the wings and just to the front of the little engine, seated in what resembles an infant’s swing seat. “The seats are made by the same people who make the seats for children’s swing sets,” Lane noted. The hang glider can soar (Continued on Page 4) H The Rappahannock News Celebrates 4-H Week /St*

=Sperryville Sewer Rejected1 (Continued from Page 1) When Sperryville’s proposed mound system is inoperable, flow of the Thornton River should be high enough to dilute sewage wastes to an acceptable level, he pointed out. “If it’s good enough for Bear Island where they have a lot of money to spend, why isn’t it good enough for Sperryville where they don’t have any money?” he asked. For Sperryville to employ that same principal, it would be necessary to construct an expensive holding pond to contain septic wastes until water levels were high, according to Hogye.

A mound system at the proposed location in Sperryville would allow for no treatment of wastes some of the time, he said. Becky Tolliver, also with the regional HD office in Culpeper, questioned whether the mound itself wouldn’t be physically destroyed by flooding. After the waters subsided, she asked, would a supersaturated mound still be able to provide required treatment levels? The site for the mound was chosen because it was already owned by the WSA which purchased the land with the original intent of building a lagoon-type treatment facility already approved by the health department and SWCB, Deimer noted. The mound alternative was proposed only after estimates on monthly user fees for the lagoon system exceeded what the WSA felt Sperryville residents could pay.

Sawyer added that there must be two feet of soil between a mound system and the seasonal water table. Gerhart acknowledged that the mound in its proposed location would provide inadequate sewage treatment. “But the question was, is some treatment better than no treatment?...Then where do we go from here? Is there some other type of treatment facility we can put at that location?” The alternative of a small conventional package treatment plant will bring monthly user charges of approximately $20, only $2.88 more per month than the proposed mound system, according to estimates from Dii/*lv>t4.Unra “Ten't that a fair price to pay for a system that operates year round with minimal problems?” Wilson asked, suggesting that the cost estimates might even be lowered slightly. $20 la Minim am "There’s no way I can get costs for a small, rural system down below $20 per month,” Menus RCHS October 5-9 Monday Cheeseburger on bun, macroni salad, pears, milk.

Historical Society Builds Walk With Historical Bricks A new brick walk now leads to the door of The Rappahannock Historical Society building, and to steps at a side entrance. Two years ago, the Rappahannock Women’s Club gave the Society money to pay for a walk, but it took some time to get all the bricks together. Old bricks were wanted and some did come from the remodeling of the clerk’s office in town, but even more were needed. The rest of the bricks were donated by Mrs. Gladys Havstad on whose property is the remains of the brick home of John Bryan. Bryan married Nancy Lillard in 1807. Their son, born in this Old Hollow house, was Silas Lillard Bryan. Silas and his family moved away when he was only four. H_ became the father of William Jennings Bryan. In later years, William Jennings Bryan honored the home of his father and grandfather by giving two chairs to the Thornton Gap Baptist Church in Old Hollow. That the bricks are hand made is attested by one brick bearing the perfect paw print of a long ago colonial dog. This brick is on exhibit in the building. Lately, the Society has seen an increase in its collection of papers. The Society’s librarian, Cathy Knuepfer, and its president, Helen Holschuh spend every Thursday afternoon working on catologing the many pictures, genealogies, letters, documents, etc. Recent additions include several local genealogies, a few letters of the Civil War period, the minute book of the Washington Civic HILLSDALE GROCERY Rt. 211 Washington Now Under * if. * New Management Hours: 7 a m.-11 p.m. Mon.-Sat. 8 a.m.-10 p.m. Sunday 675-3610 SAVE NOW!!!

REALTY WORLD vrea/ Estate dl. kBEALTOI VA. LOAN LIBERALIZED • ■•an*!* iu me latest Veteran's Housing Law, the GI loan has become an even more useful and versatile source of home financing. One of the biggest breaks is that veterans can now renew their guarantee entitlement - in other words, buy another home with the VA s aid if the veteran paid up his first GI home and sold his home or sells to another GI who takes over the loan using his own entitlement. Prior to 1975. the guarantee limit was either 60 percent of the loan or SI2,500. This guarantee has now been raised to 60 percent of the veteran's loan or $25,000, whichever is less. Other favorable terms are no minimum down payment at some banks, no top mortgage and the mortgage can run up to 30 years. For the vet, this adds up to low move-in cash and, thanks to the long pay-off, lower monthly payments.

Mon -Fri Published by Warrenton Printing & Publishing Company, Inc Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation THURSDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1981 Trial Continued (Continued from Page 1) repeated threats against his life. In addition to allowing him time to get the documents which Douglas maintains will prove that Peter Marx is John D. Marx, Payne said, a continuance will give his client time to subpoena witnesses he feels are critical to his case: his former psychiatrist, his former wife, his former sister-in-law and former U.S. President Jimmy Carter. Payne noted that Douglas doesn’t have addressses for either the wife or sister-in-law. In arguing against the continuance, commonwealth’s attorney Douglas Baumgardner maintained that the items sought by Douglas are unreasonable and irrelevant to the charges of malicious wounding. Further, in relation to Douglas’ plan to use documents from earlier legal proceedings to attack Marx’s credibility, Baumgardner noted that a witness can’t be impeached on collateral matters that are far outside the scope of the current charges against Douglas. If a continuance is granted. Baumgardner warned that he will ask for Douglas' recommitment to a state institution for further competency examinations. ‘‘He’s already had me examined so many times. I'm getting tired of it,’’ Douglas complained, "The commonwealth's attorney has already held up this trial for two years.” Got Feeling Douglas said he has “a gut feeling" that the evidence he plans to gather during the continuance will "have an effect on the judge and the jury." He needs to study the material, he said, "to get my mind refreshed." All the documents Douglas is requesting are not under the control of the commonwealth’s attorney’s office. Baumgardner noted. "We’ve given the defendant everything we have. There’s nothing else I can give him,” he said, adding that Douglas even has a copy of Peter Marx's deposition. ‘‘Do you allege there’s something in the records in U. S. District Court that would prove John D. Marx is Peter Marx?” Robertson asked. Douglas answered yes. adding that the records will also show evidence of perjury and criminal activity on Marx’s part. He maintained that he needs the records so he can show Marx is perjuring himself in the current case as well. “Then I’ll be the only one in this courtroom with any reputation left; the jury will have to believe me.” He added that his attempts to prepare his own defense against malicious wounding charges will be thwarted if Baumgardner recommits him for further mental examinations.” I need to be free to get out and get my case together.” Judge Robertson noted that there are several modes of defense to the charges lodged against Douglas: first, that the shooting did not take place; second, that he acted in self-defense, and third, that he was provoked. Justified By Provocation Robertson said he believed that Douglas will seek to prove there was adequate provocation to justify the actions he took. He noted that Douglas is entitled to put on testimony directed at that point, referring to the defendant’s contention that John Marx tried to kill him and threatened his life the week before the shooting and that John Marx is really Peter Marx. Any evidence presented on •provocation must be limited >n time and space and reasonably contemporaneous r with the time of the shooting, according to the judge. He noted that Douglas feels he has a substantial grievance against Marx which would justify the shooting; that Marx destroyed his life, affected his livelihood, destroyed his relationships with people he cared for and caused him to be placed in custody and sent to mental hospitals. Douglas insists there are certain documents he needs to present his defense, Robertson continued. “He asserts that his essential defense is that Peter Marx is John D. Marx who threatened to kill him.” Therefore, testimony directed to that point is relevant, the judge maintained. He added, however, that he wasn’t clear on what effect President Carter’s testimony or that of the other witnesses Douglas wants to subpoena will have on the malicious wounding charges. Robertson noted that he’s been unsuccessful in dissuading Douglas from his decision to waive counsel and represent himself. “He has not done what undoubtedly would have done for him...procure witnesses and documents.” The judge acknowledged that his efforts to ensure Douglas gets a fair trial have created "extraordinary expense, inconvenience and difficulty for the commonwealth”. Despite this, Robertson stated “with reluctance” that duty compels him to grant the request for a continuance and asked Douglas how much time he needed. That depends on what Baumgardner is willing to stipulate and how long it will take to secure U. S. District Court records from archives, the defendant answered. Only Continuance "I'm not going to continue this case again under any circumstances!” Robertson warned, adding that Douglas must be ready to proceed on the date set. Douglas countered that the continuance should be charged to Baumgardner since it was the commonwealth's attorney’s fault he wasn't prepared. “This is your continuance. I’m giving it to you on your motion...1 don't want to grant your motion but I think you’re entitle to it," Robertson replied. He added that Douglas can call any witnesses he can get by lawful process, noting that former President Carter is not a resident of Virginia and therefore will be difficult to serve with a summons. Douglas said he used to send Carter letters; that he was so irate over Marx ruining his life he wrote to the chief executive. Carter never answered the letters but Peter Marx did, according to Douglas. "He knew the contents of them...I think it’s relevant for President Carter to be here so he can explain why Peter Marx gets his mail and why he answers his mail.” 1 he defendant added that the proceedings against him would all be “cut and dried” if others hadn’t complicated matters. "The reason the man (Peter Marx) got shot was just to get him into court.” Douglas said. Referring to the documents Douglas maintains he needs for his defense, Robertson said it will be too expensive to provide transcripts of the previous proceedings in Rappahannock court. “Maybe Mr. Baumgardner will take it out of his salary,” Douglas said, maintaining that the delay was the commonwealth’s attorney’s fault since he earlier had nol prossed charges when Douglas prepared to proceed. Earlier Cue Moot "I nol prossed that case and I consider anything raised in that case moot,” Roberston replied. He added that Douglas could get copies of his medical records that day from the court. “But you have to get your own U. S. District Court records. 1 can’t help you there.” Before a new trial date is set, Baumgardner said he must check with the commonwealth's witnesses to see when they can return. He noted that one witness is in the Army and came up from Fort Dix for the trial. The individual has been told by his commanding officer that he can't get leave again until January, the commonwealth’s attorney added. After checking with the witnesses who were sequestered downstairs during the continuance hearing, Baumgardner reported that the eyewitness to the shooting can’t come back until the first week in January. ‘‘Is Mr. Marx the eyewitness you're talking about? Is Mr. Marx here today?” asked Douglas, leaning over to Baumgardner and grinning widely. “Address your remarks to the court,” Robertson warned. “I state for the record that Mr. Marx is here today,” Baumgardner added. Robertson set January 4, 1982, as the new trial date. “I ask you to make every effort to do that case in one day,” he told Douglas. “Trim your evidence down to the bare essentials” because the court has no free day for continuing the case, the judge added. “I further reserve the right to file a motion for an examination of the defendant to determine his competency," Baumgardner interjected. juoge rvooersion nao me witnesses brought to the upstairs courtroom to explain why he felt compelled to grant the continuance. After placing the witnesses of $100 personal recognizance bond to appear at the January 4 trial, Robertson directed Douglas to supply the court with a valid address as an added condition of his continued release on $3,000 bond, noting that a letter sent by the court to Douglas had been returned with “addressee unknown.” At trie conclusion of the hearing, Robertson met in chambers with the defendant, Baumgardner and Payne at Douglas’ request. Letter Share Feelings To the editor: In concern about last week’s buck passing, I would like to share my feelings about the Christian Schools around this area. 1 believe it is the best thing that could happen to Rappahannock County. Boy! You say anything about trying to do something that is worth while to help our children in this community and everybody starts talking about their hard earned money saved for peace and quiet. What harm could a little Christian School do that would disturb thd neighborhood? I would much rather hear a bunch of children praising the Lord. Why is it when you see in the paper where someone has filed for ABC lisenses nobody kicks against that and in a few weeks you see that so and so got licenses to sell beer. When its many of the teenagers who are buying the beer. So why not try to close down the ones that are. hurting our children, not the ones who are trying to help them? BERTHA JACOBS Amissville AN AUTOGRAPHING PARTY will be held Saturday, October 3, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. James P. Jamieson near Sperryville at which time Jane McClary will autograph copies of her latest novel, “Maggie Royal”. Sale of the book will benefit Rappahannock County Library. The autographing session will be held from 12:30 until 2 p.m. . Thumbs Down On Sewer Design (Continued from Page 2) sewer costs are “too low” due to government subsidies. “We were told that the townspeople could afford $8$12 per month,” Deimer countered. “I don’t see how that figure can be met,” replied Sawyer. “As far as the Water and Sewer Authority was concerned, anything over $15 was too much,” Gerhart responded. “We got it down to $16 with treatment 80 to 90 percent of the time.” He added that the mound was proposed only because it was the least expensive alternative. Even in good soils, mounds will leak around the base, according to Sawyer. Effluent from the mound will be high quality at first, he said, “but it will deteriorate after five years and it will discharge. You will get run off into state waters,” run-off that is higher and higher in organics and suspended solids. So a mound at the proposed site is out and even with a new site, questions still exist, Dennis noted. The health department and SWCB may be comfortable with a package plant on the property the WSA already owns but with monthly user fees of at least $20, the community will say don’t build any system, he maintained. “What are you guys going to do then?” Gerhart asked. Closingi Possible Sawyer answered that the health department can refuse to give approval for any new construction in Sperryville if the pollution problem caused by malfunctioning septic fields isn’t corrected. The department can revoke existing permits for restaurants, service stations and other operations which serve the public and can even require that existing residents be vacated, he added. The health department “can close down buildings with direct GLIDING OVER MOUNTAIN TOPS WILD BLUE YONDER! Lane Enjoys Gliding (Continued from Page 1) to altitudes of 15,000 feet, above the flight paths of the fighter planes that zoom over the county every so often. It lifts off the ground at 17 miles per hour and can reach a top speed of 50 mph. “But you really have to work to get it that fast. You’d have to open the throttle full blast and point the nose straight down,” Lane said. The controls are practically non-existent. Nelson starts the engine by tugging on a coil, just like a lawn mower. The motor even sounds like a lawn mower—more putt-putt than purr. He steers by shifting his weight and center of gravity, swinging the seat to turn the rudder. “You cut the throttle and pull down to lose altitude, open the throttle and aim the nose up in the air to climb...It’s so easy for me to fly. So easy.” The glider gets about a gallon per hour, running on a standard two-cycle gasoline mix. “I bought my aviation fuel at Burke’s Store this morning—unleaded supreme!” Nelson joked. His only flight equipment is a bright yellow helmet, the same shade as the glider’s dacron wings. “They make parachutes for this thing—the kind you carry in your lap—but I don’t have one. The parachute probably looks twice as shakey as this does." Neither does Lane have a license for his machine. Motorized hang gliders are so new that the Federal Aeronautics Administration hasn’t yet gotten around to , establishing regulations. Nelson sounds very positive when he insists that his new toy presents no particular safety hazard. “The dangers are about the same as flying anything—being low to the ground and not moving very fast. I suppose you could hit a bird in the air if you pursued an eagle or a buzzard with two much enthusiasm. That could be pretty disastrous.” The glider is so manageable that Lane maintains he can turn tiny circles around a person standing in the field. The engine is prone to cutting out—“It stalls like crazy”—but even this presents more of a challenge than a danger, according to the enthusiastic pilot. “I deliberately stall it when I have the altitude so I’ll know what to do if it happens accidently...A stall is puppy stuff.” To demonstrate, he taxied the hang glider down the runway at James W. Fletcher’s F. T. Valley airstrip, climbed to about 70 feet and cut - the. engine. Silence replaced the put-put of the engine as Lane droped sharply for a few feet and then settled into a glide down to a perfect three point landing on rubber wheels that hardly even gave a bounce as they hit the grass. It’s the higher, the better for engine trouble. “Anything over 50 feet,” Nelson said. “You can have an engine stall and still make a perfecl landing. But if it happened a< 20 feet, you’l probably drop like a rock. The only problem in landing after the engine stalls is ground turbulence. II could force you back up intc the air and into another stall just a few feet off the ground.” Nelson keeps his black and yellow machine in Fletcher’s hanger. He said, however, that the entire apparatus can be broken4 down in about an hour and loaded into a trailer for the ride home to Eldon Farms. But handling it that way would probably shorten the life of the hang glider, he added. As it stands—or rather flies—now, Quicksilver requires little maintenance. Nelson checks out the aluminum tubing and struts prior to each flight just to be on the safe side and before the innaugural airborn adventure, he brought in a consulting mechanic. “Tom Massie—he’s very well known in the two-cycle world,” Lane quipped. The $4,000 machine is practical as well as fun, according to Nelson. “I can check on the cattle, check on the com, see what’s happening on the farm. It sure beats the hell out of a pickup for getting over rough country. I can see the whole place in about an hour.” But Lane isn’t out to — Nappahannork New* I'hoto/S. Latham WITH ASSISTANCE from J.W. Fletcher, Nelson Lane, filled the tanks of his glider in preparation for flight Tuesday morning. convince farmers they need a motorized hang glider. His may have it’s practical uses but the glider is primarily for recreation, not work. “It’s like sitting out on your back porch in the breeze. You’re outside but you can look down at your legs and it’s thousands of feet to the ground. I’ve ridden motorcycles and just about everything else there is to ride and this is number one. might get a little bored with it later on but right now, it’s fantastic!” Fletcher had driven down to his airstrip on Tuesday to look over the hanger’s newest resident. A non-commital smile and shrug was his answer when asked if he planned to try hang gliding. Lane was more emphatic. "Are you kidding? You won’t be able to keep him away!” Before Lane left on another flight—this one a swoop over the high school as classes were letting out for the day—Fletcher presented the spirtual son of Orville and Wilbur Wright an altimeter so Nelson can tell how high he’s soaring. “That’s cool. 1 got instruments.” Lane exclaimed over the gift. “You can’t say I’m not a pilot now. I’ve got instruments!” To Attend Bar-B-Que Rappahannock Citizens for Raymond R. "Andy” Guest, an informal bipartisan group supporting the re-election of Guest as delegate from the new 18th legislative district, will host a bar-b-que at Montpelier on Saturday, October 10, from 2 to 5 p.m. Montpelier is located SVi miles south of Sperryville on the east side of Route 231. Virginia Governor and Mrs. John Dalton are scheduled to be honored guests for the event which is open to all registered voters of Rappahannock County. discharge (of untreated sewage) into the Thornton River” and “can move people out” if the buildings do not have an approved septic system, according to Sawyer. Enforcement will rest with the local health department and action would probably not be taken without a specific directive from the state commissioner of health, he said. “What help or what threats can we depend on from the local health department?” Gerhart asked. With at least 50 houses and businesses currently discharging raw sewage directly into the Thornton and “nobody doing anything to them,” community residents will ask why they should commit themselves to paying $12 to $16 per month, Gerhart said. Sawyer countered that the current situation in Sperryville has never been approved by any state agency. The health department has delayed taking action only because the community was progressing toward a solution to the pollution problem, he noted. “If it gets to the point where they say they’re not going to do anything...I don't know what the State Water Control Board will do,” Sawyer said, noting that action could be brought against individual homeowners. Funding Uncertain Dennis asked for an explanation of federal funding status for sewer projects. Ernie Simmons, head of the SWCB’s construction grants division, reported that the Sperryville project is proposed for funding with money to be allocated to the state in 1983. Public hearings on that and other 1983 projects will be held December 8 in Richmond, he said. Simmons added, however, that federal funds have not yet been provided for fiscal year 1982 (which begins October 1, 1981). If 1982 funds aren’t released, thf» lict for 1 u/ill Kp moved up to 1984, he said. The federal share of the cost of sewer construction is "definitely going to go down,” he continued, possibly dropping from the current 75 percent to the 50 percent bracket over a period of a few years. In addition, costs of collector lines may be eliminated entirely from eligibility for federal funding. “It’s hard for us to give you an up-front answer” until bills currently before the House and Senate are amended, passed and either signed or rejected by the President, Simmons stated, adding that he expects the funding picture to be cleared by late October or early November. “It’s going to be a battle and the question is whether the public works program is going to proceed.” Dennis noted, however, that federal and state regulations require that the Thornton River waters be cleaned up. "That law hasn’t been changed yet," Charlie Massie of the SWCB acknowledged. Sperryville ranks high on the list for funding due to the health hazard that the Thornton River pollution poses so the probability of its sewer project going ahead “is excellent compared to others,” he said. Deimer noted that a study conducted in 1976 found 40 discharge points for raw sewage in Sperryville and 75 percent of the community’s septic fields malfunctioning. In addition, tests run on 26 wells in the village showed evidence of contamination from fecal choloform in 20 water sources. After health department and SWCB representatives left, Rappahannock’s Water and Sewer Authority members authorized Buchart-Horn’s engineers to complete their report on the mound system, including cost and feasibility of alternative systems with a public hearing on the proposed project set tentatively for January, 1982.

Past Year Has Been A Full One For 4-H Clubs in Rappahannock By THERESA REYNOLDS Rappahanmx-fc New. Staff Writrr This year, nearly five million 4-H members nationwide are observing National 4-H Week starting Sunday. This special week is held in October every year and serves to remind communities that their young people have a chance to participate in the largest out-of-school organization in the country. There are more than five million 4-H members nationwide, assisted by 523,000 volunteer leaders. Youngsters have a chance to learn more about subjects and activities that interest them, ranging from performing arts to raising healthy animals. Rappahannock County is lucky to have a great deal of community support for 4-H and many dedicated adults who take the time to help out in the various 4-H activities. This year, as usual, was a full one for the Rappaffannock County clubs. A review of the year’s activities shows just how many young lives were touched by the county 4-H program. This review begins just after the conclusion of last year’s 4-H week: November 1980 Livestock Club The Livestock Club held its first meeting with Mrs. Joyce Adams and her two daughters joining as new members. Joyce Starks was elected president, Mitchell Burke vice president, Timmy Falls secretary, Ike Leggett treasurer. The club decided to start a livestock judging team with Randall Updike, David Thornhill and Jay Miller as leaders. Elementary School 4-H Programs The in-school program held a special awards ceremony at the elementary school for the fourth, fifth and sixth grade students. Displaying their accomplishments at the ceremony were the Horse and Pony Club, the Chester Gap 4-H Club, and the Gover Leaf Home Economics Club. The Livestock Club’s table was covered with ribbons won at area farm shows during the summer and more ribbons won in demonstration contests decorated the Dog Club's Projects. Hone and Pony Gob Fourteen members of the horse and pony club attended the Washington International Horse Show November 1. Club members went behind the scenes at the Horse Show and met the Black Stallion of movie fame and the Budweiser Clydesdales being readied for the evening performance. January 1981 4-H Center Herbert Barksdale presented a check for $3,000 to Jan Palmer, Extension Office secretary, for the new 4-H Center under construction near Front Royal. The Flint Hill Homemakers donated a check for $100 for the Center.

Later in the month, the club members traveled to Orange for a pancake and sausage supper and a film and discussion on the clinic, 3-Day Eventing, and a film, A Horse for All Trials. February 1981 Livestock Club The club met and discussed plans for the coming year, including a project at the fourth-of-July celebration in Washington, a judging competition in Blacksburg and the Culpeper, Madison, Rappahannock Farm Show coming in July. March 1981 In School Program The 4-H Share-The-Fun contests, public speaking ^contests and demonstrations j were held March 19 at the jRappahannock County | Elementary School.

The Junior participants were Cheryl Gheen, who won a red ribbon with her dog presentation; Jonathan Watson, who received a blue ribbon with his speech on citizenship; and Denice Eidson, who won a red ribbon with her talk on "Speech.” James Nicholson and Greg Dodson were given a white ribbon in the Share-the-Fun division singing “The Good Ole Boys.” Gaby Lee, Vicky Compton and Kim Hall received a red ribbon for their drama, “The Cliff," in the Share-the-Fun Division. April 1981 Livestock Club The Livestock Club held its monthly meeting April 20 to discuss the mini-swine club to be held in Farmville in May. Club sponsors David Thornhill and Randall Updike went to the Madison Livestock Market to buy pigs and lambs for the July farm show. May 1981 Horse and Pony Club Natalie Roland of Amissville took first place individual honors in the senior division for Rappahannock County’s 4-H Horse and Pony Club at the District’s 4-H judging contest. 4-H clubbers Kim and Meagan Revis, both juniors, and senior Brenda Lawrence, all of Amissville, .also competed and qualified along with Natalie for the state judging championships to be held July 7 at Rapidan River Farm. 4-H In-School Prognun These children won blue ribbons for their outstanding work in their 4-H record books: Angela Lilly, Cindy Caperton, Kim Hall, Dicky Burke, Sandy Marlene Weaver, Irwin Trumen, George Peyton, Herbert Shank, Sherrie Kidwell, Tammy Lynn Dwyer, Kerrie Pederson, Jackie Settle, Donna Foster, Bryan Kestner, Jarvis Fletcher, Nikki David, Cindy Dwyer, Hope Wines, Carroll Frye, Kelly Williams, Mike Kearns, Wesley Jenkins and Amy Aylor. Outstanding secretary of all the blue ribbon winners was Jackie Settle. June 1981 4-H Camp June was an important month for Rappahannock County 4-H‘ers who attended either the overnight or the day camps. The overnight camp was held at Hazel River and included the Extension Office staff as well as the older 4-H members who acted as junior leaders. Youngsters at the camp had carnivals, sing-alongs, craft classes, nature classes, swimming, hiking and other sports as well as the experience of being away from home for most of a week. The 4-H Day Camp, also held at Hazel River, provided fun, games and classes for a horde of county youngsters. Director Birgitt Thornhill, Rappahannock’s Home Agent, was assisted by Debbie Mills in planning and directing the camp. Other adults lending a hand were Elsie Gheen, Rappahannock Extension Agent Rapley Owings, Irvin Kenyon, Jim Bankston, Rena Mae Jenkins, Marsha Thompson, Ron Wiley, Linda Owings and Martha Kidwell. 1 Junior leaders Kathryn Davis, Kristie Johnson, Craig Kenyon, Michael Shanahan, Jim McCullough, Natalie Butler, Raynetta Gheen, Jon McCullough, Marie Davis and Scott Keithley assisted in the classes, and in between organized kickbatl, baseball and sing-albngs. 4-H Congress Representing Rap pahannock at a week of 4-H Congress in Blacksburg were Amanda Magee, Raynetta Gheen, Julie Burke, Judith Bloomer, Joe McCullough, Janine Bloomer, and Ginger Eidson. Some of the courses studied by these youngsters were handicapped recreation, cooperatives, consumerism and community improvement. July 1981 Livestock Club July was a big month for Rappahannock County Livestock Club members. They held a livestock fundraiser and food sale as part of the fourth of July festivities in Washington and participated in the Culpeper-MadisonRappahannock farm show in late July, winning many of the top places and also faring well in the 4-H livestock sale that ended the show Monday night.

>«*/ y Ay 17VA County Participants Describe How It Feels To Be A 4-H’er 4-H Day Camp By KRISTIE JOHNSON This year’s 4-H Day Camp was directed by Birgitt Thornhill and she deserves congratulations. Everything went smoothly, even on the last day when an unexpected thunderstorm tried to spoil the fun of the activities. Also helping run the camp were the many teachers of the classes—canoeing, archery, swimming, sewing, crafts, nature and woodworking. Helping out the teachers were the junior leaders who led the different color groups—red, blue, yellow and green. There were at least two for each group of 10 or more kids. The junior leaders watched the kids during lunch in the morning and went with them to their different activities in the afternoon. Activity time was divided into three groups • swimming, sports-either kickball or softball-and visits from the local sheriffs department, fire department and rescue squad. A bicycle safety movie was shown the first day, followed on Tuesday by a deputy of the Sheriffs Department, on Wednesday by the Sperryville Volunteer Fire Department and Thursday by Rick Johnson of the Sperryville Volunteer Rescue Squad. After four days of practice the campers were ready to test their skills. The adult leaders tested through groups and decided who was the best or most-improved. Since this was Friday we celebrated with the swimming Olympics which included t-shirt races, pennj dives, big spash, bucket toss and the most important of all - the greased watermelon. In the end the green team was victorious but there was watermelon for everyone. By this time dark clouds were approaching and lightning flickered, so out came the kids from the pool. The rain let loose and we all ran to the cafeteria for cover. Some people were soaked trying to bring in crafts and birdhouses which were left out for display. As the storm raged on we were dry and singing old camp favorites. Awards were given those who had earned them and pictures were taken. Then it was time to go with echos of "goodbye” and “see you next year.” The week went by quickly but was a lot of fun. To those who were there this year, all I can say is thanks and see you next year! 4-H Congress By joe McCullough Last June I was one of seven persons who represented Rappahannock at 4-H State Congress in Blacksburg. I had been to many other 4-H camps in Virginia but this one was the most important and I wasn’t sure what to expect. Most of the people at Congress were 4-H’ers who had won some type of award. Some of the activities were surprisingly formal for a camp. We even had to wear a coat and tie and no tennis shoes to eat dinner! The purpose of State Congress was for 4-H’ers to get the opportunity to be recognized for their individual talents. The most famous competition held at Congress was the annual State Share-theFun Show. The winners were two dancers who defied the Congratulations 4-H'ers Sperryville Comer Store Meats and Groceries Sperryville, Va. 987-8185 . to 0ta.^4iAanmocJ: e#4 Newbill Miller, Realtor Washington, Va. 703-675-3691 laws ot motion wnen tney seemed to walk forward only to walk backwards. The delegates who made Congress possible by organizing the week did a great job planning activities. Sleeping was a rare occupation for campers during the week. Virginia was split into sections at Blacksburg for representation, and Rappahannock was a member of a dominant Northern District. On Thursday at camp there was a 4-H Olympics with such activities as softball, basketball, earthball, and a mile run. The district that received the most points through participation and wins received a tall sportsmanship trophy. That trophy is now in the Northern District Extension Office. Congress reminded me a lot of school because I had to get up at 5 o’clock, eat breakfast, and go to my class. The class 1 took was on cooperatives and how they work. Then we had lunch. Most people used their lunch period to go swimming at Tech’s olympic-size swimming pool. They aiso have 12 basketball courts where you can find a pick-up game at any time.

Uthaa FARM SHOW WINNERS—Charlotte and Amanda Magee, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Jim Magee of Amissville, display the ribbons and trophy received this summer at the farm show in Culpeper. Their lamb projects in 4-H paid off very well. __ Livestock Club By AMANDA MAGEE The Rappahannock 4-H livestock club has been in existence for the past three years. Still, people do not know what it is all about. Every year our club is increasing in size, but we still need more members. The livestock club is very much fun and good experience. In the club there are about four animals to pick from for a project; lambs, hogs, steers and cows, or there are other farm categories. Being in the livestock club is not ail fun and games, for there are also many hours of work included in raising an animal. Taking the lamb as a project, for example, as I did, you first purchase a lamb about four months before showing. Each day you have to feed your animals twice a day and give it fresh water daily. Every day you must work with your lamb, and get it used to your working with and around it, touching it and handling it. This takes a lot of patience. When show time comes around, your lamb will be quite ready if you have worked well with it. In the show there is a lot of excitement and enthusiasm. There are many different classes to enter, and this is a time when many new friends are made, because this brings you in to contact with lots of new people. So come on and join the 4H livestock club. You won’t be wasting your time. It’s been worth every minute to see how much you have accomplished in a, year’s time. 4-H Overnight Camp By GINGER EIDSON “Where am I supposed to go?” “When do we eat?” That was the beginning of a week I’ll never forget. That was a week at 4-H overnight camp at Powell’s Fort Every step I took the first day was a new adventure for me. I have never been to 4-H overnight camp, and boy, did I learn a lot. One important thing 1 learned is to be prepared for anything that might happen, because at 4-H overnight camp, believe me, it could happen and probably will. Monday night we had a carnival. The junior leaders had to set up booths for the kids. My booth was a candy guessing booth. The kids had to guess how many pieces of candy were in the jar I had. One of the lucky junior leader girls, Laurie, got to set up a kissing booth for the boys. Unfortunately they didn’t have a booth for the girls. Laurie was well-liked by the boys for the rest of the camp. I couldn’t understand why I wasn’t as popular as she. I was awakened Tuesday morning by a harmonica playing. I thought maybe I was dreaming but unfortunately I wasn’t. It seemed I had just gotten to bed and I had to get right back up again. I had a nature cooking class to teach on Tuesday. 4-H Clover Dos Club By RAYNETTA GHEEN This year’s members of the Amissville 4-H Clover Dog Club are Raynetta Gheen, Kelly Bristol, Cheryl Gheen and Chris Sosna. Club members raised money to go to Kings Dominion , by saving aluminum. -cans, pop bottle* and paying dues of SO cents a month. In the winter, the club members started to prepare for illustrated talks to be given at county competition. Winners from the county for their talks were Kelly Bristol, Raynetta Gheen and Chris Sosna. Cheryl and Raynetta Gheen participated in district competition. Cheryl won a red ribbon with her Illustrated presentation, and Raynetta plaosd first in the district and went on to the State Congress in Blacksburg. We were making s mores. Before the third class even came we ran out of chocolate bars. The reason we ran out of them may have been because I ate a few more than my share, but who can resist a chocolate bar that sits in front of you for two hours? Well, I had two days behind me - three more to got I wasn’t too fell of energy ' on Wednesday. My get-upand-go seemed to be all gone. Even if it was gone I had to* face Wednesday with a smile, fl I had my nature! cooking! class to teach again. Wei made pig-in-the-blankets. X The kids seemed to like them X a lot. There was even one X boy, Noah, who came to all n three of my classes when he Jj was supposed to be taking n other classes. He said hen liked mine the best. I’d like jj to think it was because of me, jj but I don’t think so. B Wednesday night we had a i scavenger hunt. All the junior leaders and permanent staff members were given a point value and had to hide. The tribe with the most points won. Naturally I was one of the | first found. I was worth seven points. I hid behind a tree, but I think the tree was a little small or maybe I was I a little big. There was some very good hiders. lne nurse sat ngnt on tne steps of her cabin. Four or five kids went right by her before someone finally found her. It wouldn’t have been so bad but she was worth 100 points. Thursday had finally come and by that time I didn’t want to go home. I had made some great friends and learned a great deal. I wished they'd start having camp for two weeks. some permanent siaii members stayed there all summer. They were all great people and by the end of the week I had gotten to know a couple of them very well. One of them, Lee, ran the snack bar and every night the junior leaders would go there and get ice cream for the kids. Well, Thursday night Laurie and I had gone to get (Continued on Page 11) We Support Rappahannock 4-H Clubs B & B Service Center Gas & Oil - Automotive Repair 24-Hour Wrecker Service Washington, Va. 987-8686 We Are Happy To Support 4-H CLOCKS Complete Restoration • Repairs Giitbiti Built Old Clocks Bought • Any Condition All Work Guaranteed E«gMtTgck«r 675-3481 Happiness To You!

Center Will Serve Northern District “y * HER ESA REYNOLDS Rappahannock News Staff Writer This year, with the completion of two buildings at the new 4-H Educational Center near Front Royal, Northern District Extension Agents, adult leaders and 4H Club members moved several steps closer to a dream that has been in the works for years. The process started in 1973, when the USDA Beef Cattle Research Station near Front Royal closed. The State of Virginia began the application procedure for 229 acres of the site, which later was deeded for a 4-H Educational Center. Fund-raising for the Center began with a contribution of S3,500 from the Warren County 4-H Leaders’ Association and $532,000 was received in 1977 from the Economic Development Administration Local Public Works and Capital Development Program. 4-H officials say that until the competion of the Center the facilities available to rent for youth gatherings cannot accommodate more than 7 percent of the 4-H enrollment. More than 250,000 boys and girls of 4-H age Yive within the district, —Rappahannock New* Phntn/T. Reynold* AND OVER THERE IS THE SWIMMING POOL—at least it will be when the 4-H Center hosts 11 weeks of camping for area youngsters. Showing Herbert Barksdale (right) the swimming pool site is Mitch Tedrick, 4-H Center Director. The 4-H Center’s design permits it to fit into its natural surroundings on the border of the Shenandoah National Park. WE SUPPORT 4-H Flint Hill Gift Shop * » “i ‘ IS i >rt And Antiques Flint Hill, Va. and those in charge of the Center hope that its construction will enable many more of them to take part in 4-H activities. Those 'in Rappahannock and Warren County 4-H clubs will be the groups most affected by the Center’s completion because of its proximity. The Center is located in Harmony Hollow about five miles south of Front Royal, right next to the Shenandoah National Park. When it is completed, the 4-H center will be able to accommodate almost any club activity. It will include six winterized cabin clusters which will house up to 90 persons each, one winterized cabin for infirmary and staff housing, a main lodge with a dining hall, conference facilities and sleeping accommodations for 120 persons, an animal center including horse stable and riding ring, recreational facilities—pool, playing fields, tennis courts, trails, rifle and archery ranges—a manager’s residence and primitive camping sites. Chief fundraiser and contributor to the center from Rappahannock County has been Herbert Barksdale. He showed me around the partially-completed Center and explained why this project is of such interest to him. “I came here in 1929 as the Extension Agent,” he said. "I was lucky enough to stay here in the county ever since. I’ve seen many of the young 4-H club members graduate from 4-H and go on to become fine, responsible citizens. I really think that it makes a difference." Barksdale got involved in the construction of the new Center when the president of VPI called him and asked him to serve on the governing body of the Center. Since then he has helped in many ways, from fund-raising to cultivating community contacts. The main building has a kitchen, sleeping quarters and the offices of the present staff—George M. Tedrick, the director; Norabelle Comer, the officer manager; . and Sally Lupton, a clerk. typist. We met Tedrick there at this office and I asked him how he managed without a permanent staff to ac commodate the 110 people or so that can stay overnight. Tedrick laughed. “Right now 1 work, the secretaries work, my wife and kids work. Anyone who will help house and feed the groups who come, I press into service.” Tedrick said that by this summer the swimming pool will be completed and the Center will offer 11 weeks—or a full summer’s worth-of camping. “I should have some kind of permanent or seasonal staff by then,” he said. During the last week in October and the first week in November, the Center will offer a primitive camping program to any local youngsters who want to test their skill in the woods. The program is supervised and the youngsters are taught camping and basic survival sums. Anyone interested can call Tedrick at the Cehter. Tedrick is well-qualified to conduct an operation of this kind. His skill at supervising construction and handling large groups was learned in the Army, where he served for 10 years, and as a teacher at R a nd 61 ph - M aeon Academy in Front Royal for a total of 11 years, both before and after his Army days. He was raised and educated in Front Royal in county schools and at Randolph-Mason and VPI. He was hired in October 1978 as director of the new 4-H Center. Since then, he has supervised the completion of two buildings, the road leading into the Center and more than five miles of water and sewer lines, as well as conducting programs for those staying at the Center and dealing with the day-today correspondence, meetings, and fund-raising activities that his job entails. Both Tedrick and Barksdale want to encourage local 4-H clubs to come out and make use of the Center. “Sometimes groups come out here on weekends just to walk around and have a picnic,” Tedrick said. “I really enjoy having them here. No matter what else I have to do, for me it’s the kids who make it all worthwhile.” Aft If 1 7Ui The Horse and Pony Club Teaches Horsemanship of Many Kinds By DAPHNE HUTCH INSON\ Rappahannock Staff Writer ^ When Natalie Roland of Amissville graduates in two years, she’ll be able to step into a job as a draftsman, thanks to what she’s learned in high school classes. In addition, she’ll be prepared to follow a career as a horse breeder, thanks to what she’s learned as a member of the Rappahannock 4-H Horse and Pony Club. Under the direction of leaders Jane Narramore and Sherry Hamill, Brenda has mastered the intricacies of horse judging, competing successfully at VPI’s Block and Bridle Invitational, the Northern 4-H District contest and the state 4-H contest. As a member of the Rappahannock judging team, she’s become familiar with all horse breeds, the parts of a horse and conformation faults. In competition, Natalie not only must place a group of horses but she must give oral reasons—without using notes—to justify the rankings. “This brings me one step closer to becoming a judge myself,” Natalie said. “She's also going to be a breeder so she’s going to have to be able to evaluate what she sees in order to select the right breeding stock,” club leader Jane Narramore added. Natalie already has a.fine start in horse breeding. She took the family horse, a very ordinary Appaloosa mare, and bred her to a good thoroughbred stallion. The reditu was vjooa Morning Glory, an extraordinary filly. “She was born on Easter morning, that’s why I picked Glory,” Natalie said. Glory has been a backyard horse from the start, kept in a lot just a couple of acres in size. Natalie has done all the training herself with assistance from her 4-H leaders. The year-and-a-half old filly works like she was born on a lunge line. She walks, trots, canters on the right leads, speeds up and slows down on command from Natalie. A human oriented, attention loving horse, the filly wears the equine version of a smile as she circles around her young master, basking in the praise she gets for promptly obeying Natalie's commands. Natalie plans to turn Glory into a hunter and will show her in performance classes. Later, she plans to breed the filly. In the meantime, the pair has entered the ring in breeding classes and in her first show at Herndon’s Frying Pan Park on state 4-H Hores Day, Glory walked away with the all-breed championship. Jennifer Kelp from Amissville, another active member of the Horse and Pony Club, is more interested in the riding activities the club promotes. “1 sort of grew up with horses,” Jennifer said. “My mom’s always been an endurance rider and I got my first pony when I was four.” Even with this horsey background, Jennifer feels she’s gained immeasurably from being in 4-H. “It’s helped me a lot. I never even knew about dressage before I joined 4H!” Now, after working under leader Sherry Hamill, she’s going over fences on her half-Welsh pony. Little Bits. Are she and the pony friends? “Yea, sort of. I still have to chase her some to catch her but she doesn’t run away like she used to. When we first got her, she’d back up at 20 miles per hour. I was scared to death!” Klour nflati her mother and guidance from her 4-H leaders, Jennifer has shown Bits who’s the boss. Recently the pair won second place in a competitive trail ride held inj Maryland and they've also! started showing in equitation! classes at 4-H shows. ] In addition, Jennifer plans] to join the judging team.] “I’ve started studying] already,’’ she announced. ] Jane Narramote- and] Sherry Hamill began- the] Rappahannock 4-H Horse| and Pony Club in order tof provide local youngsters with! — Rappahannock News Photo/Daphne Hutchinson NATALIE ROWLAND, secretary-treasurer of the Rappahannock 4-H Horse and Pony Club, divides her time between school, a part-time job at Drug Fair and her 4-H project, Good Morning Glory. The yearling filly is an authentic backyard horse, foaled in a small lot behind the family’s Amissville home. meaningful recreational activity, something they feel the county lacks. The club’s agenda has included much more besides preparation for judging and riding competition. The kids have watched horse films, listened to guest lecturers speak on a wide range of subjects from bandaging a horse’s legs to the finer points of polo, learned the basic are of a horse or pony and attended the Washington, C. C. International Horse Show. The club has hosted a Christmas party and two horse clinics with Sherry Hamill giving instruction in elementary dressage, grooming, showmanship, loading, braiding and general horsemanship.

COUrfTftT not\t/ ROBERT METCALFE GENERAL CONTRACTOR New Homes •Cabins •Additions •Remodeling Box 147 Flint HHI.Va. 703*675*3897 Va. Class A Contractor’s License lots I didn’t know before. I also found out how shy boys are. 1 had to ask them to dance with me. Around the end of the dance their shyness was pretty well gone. Thank goodness! I was getting tired of doing the asking. Friday morning was here. I have never wished to live a week over again like I did that one. 1 didn’t want to go home. I had had such a fantastic time. The morning consisted of cleaning up and then a hike, we got back from the hike and I knew my mother would be there. A couple of hours after lunch she drove up. I knew it was time for me to say goodbye to camp and the kids until next year. It was hard, but I managed. The hardest part was saying goodbye to a great friend I had made—Laurie. I thought I was going to be brave and make it without tears, but I wasn’t. I’ll always remember my summer at camp: the kids, the fun I had, and the friend I made. I’d like to thank everyone who made camp fun for me. I am sure I’ll be back next year to enjoy the excitement camp brings. 4rH Congress \vviiiiiiucu irvm rage u; In the evening everyone went to their district meetings and then to Burruss Hall where delegates gathered to sing songs, receive awards, listen to speakers, and watch different shows. After Burruss we were let loose and I was lucky enough to find an ice cream place that made the best ice cream this side of Mom’s hand made. The only problem was that I told two friends and they told two friends and so on. Pretty soon the place was so crowded that the line was two blocks long. Other activities at the Congress were dances, movies, midnight snacks and the election of new officers. Congress was indeed a pleasure for me and I just hope that I can go again next year.

Do you think of boredom, hard work and lectures? If so, you have the same idea as most people who either know something about schools or are forced to attend. Mrs. Mary Ann Biggs’ sociology class is one exception that we would like to tell you about. If you ever have the opportunity to be in the hall during fourth period, take the time to glance into room seven. Just a glance will bring to your attention a different class room setting. Most of the time the desks are in a circle and it might be difficult to identify just which person is the teacher. Yoii won’t even find people glancing out of the windows or asleep on the desk tops. This state of undivided attention can be credited to Mrs. Biggs’ original style. She is not your average teacher who is always giving notes or lecturing, but she allows the students to voice opinions and discuss the topic of the day. The students from this class will discuss and experience practical situations which influence their lives daily. The class has had the opportunity to hear four speakers in and around Rappahannock. They hope to be making field trips to assist them in their studies. We asked two students from the class what they thought of Mrs. Biggs style and the informality of the class. Patricia Scott, an honor student who enjoys the class, had this to say, “I find it enjoyable to be a part of a class with this type of informal atmosphere”. Raynetta Gheen, a sophomore who really didn’t know what to expect from the class added, “Some of the written work is difficult but I enjoy expressing my opinions and getting involved with class activities”. Mrs. Biggs is new to the Rappahannock school system. She is teaching history, sociology and working in the guidance department. We appreciate her hard work and concern for the students. This week the newly formed Hi-Y club met. Miss Griffin presented a slide show to the students and told about her personal experiences as a Hi-Y member. Many of the students seem to be very interested in this worthwhile organization.

Volleyballers Take First A challenge team from Rappahannock traveled to Nelson County last weekend for an invitational co-rec volley tournament.
