- Mvyi— After Repeated Violations Baumgardner Revokes Pullen’s Probation By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON KaniwHanmtrk Vt». Staff m rilrr “There comes a time when the court has to draw the line in these matters and that time is now,” maintained commonwealth’s attorney Douglas Baumgardner in asking for revocation of James Franklin Pullen's probation. Pullen was back in circuit court on Monday for a probation revocation hearing, his fourth in the six years since he received suspended sentences in Madison and Rappahannock counties for grand larceny. “Frank’s problem throughout the years has been from drinking,’’ probation officer Jack DeBergh told the court. He noted that Pullen was required to serve six months in jail after his third probation violation hearing and was out approximately a month before being charged with the first of two counts of driving while intoxicated. “Frank has ten and a half years hanging over his head—four and a half in Rappahannock and six in Madison,” DeBergh said. If probation is revoked and the suspended sentences are imposed, sending Pullen to the penitentiary, it’s “very dubious” that he’ll get the counseling he needs for treatment of alcoholism, the probation officer said. _ He added that. Pullew’a • attitude had improved since his release following the imposition of six months jail time. as an alternative to incarceration in a state institution, DeBergh suggested that Pullen be confined in the Fauquier jail until a review of his case in May. During that time, the probation officer recommended that the defendant receive counseling from the Fauquier Family Guidance Center’s alcohol abuse expert and attend Alcoholics Anonymous meetings at the counselor’s discretion. DeBergh said the probation officer in Madison had gone before the court there to present the same proposal. According to DeBergh, Madison’s circuit court judge agreed to concur if the recommendation for counseling and internment in Fauquier was adopted here. Taking the stand, Pullen acknowledged that since his release from jail in March, he’d been charged with and found guilty of driving while intoxicated in Page County and received a $500 fine and six months jail sentence. He'said he’d also been found guilty of the same charge in U. S. District Court in Rockingham and received a $250 fine and 90-day suspended sentence. Pullen said he’d tried to get into two different alcohol treatment programs while in jail in Page County with no success. He told the court that he’d be willing to •participate Jit Fauquier’s counseling program, adding that hb wife could transport him to the family guidance (Continued on Page 4) r/r — HappahanrHM-k Nfw» IMwito/S.

Grand Jury Indicts 4 In Burglary lling The Rappahannock grand jury considered 32 indictments on Monday’s opening of the November term of circuit court, bringing back true bills for 25. Herman Newman, Anthony Tyler, Robert Norko and Harriett P. Newman, all of Culpeper, were indicted on multiple charges of breaking and entering and grand larceny at the residences in Old Hollow of Clifford Lawson, Robert Johnson and Jeff Dwyer and Mark Rabbe. The four defendants are alleged to be part of a burglary ring that operated in Rappahannock and Culpeper counties. In Culpeper, Herman Newman has been charged with three counts of breaking and entering and two of grand larceny; Tyler with one ' count of breaking and entering and two of grand larceny and Harriett Newman with one count of breaking and entering. Trials are set on four separate dates in November and December in Culpeper circuit court. A jury trial is scheduled for Gary Allen Stuple of Front Royal on January 21, 1982. Stuple was indicted Monday on charges that he broke into Wakefield Service Station in Flint Hill on June 3 and stole goods valued at more than S200. The grand jury brought back a true bill against James W. Pendleton of Amissville on charges that he feloniously vehicle. Pendleton waived a jury and his arraignment and trial are set for December 31 at 9:30 a.m. Steve Crossman of Avon Park, Fla., was indicted on charges that he feloniously and with intent to defraud an insurance company set fire to his 1979 pick-up truck. A hearing on motions in the case is set for December 31, also. Anon Charge The grand jury brought in a true bill against Robert Clarence “Pete” Martin on one count of arson involving the burning of four barns in Sperryville owned by the C. E. Johnson family. Last March, Martin was tried and found guilty of five counts of arson—one for each barn and a fifth charge for the Johnsons’ person il property which was destroyed in the 1980 Halloween Eve fire. But in a written opinion delivered September 3, circuit court judge Shore Robertson set aside the four guilty verdicts involving the barns on the grounds that there is “substantial uncertainty” as to whether the Coftimonwealth proceeded properly by issuing Five indictments instead of one. A hearing for motions on the new, combined charges against Martin is set for Pecember 17. Sentencing on the companion case of arson involving the personal property was also continued until that date. Albert Gatewood of Washington was indicted on grand larceny charges for the theft of a tent and other goods from Keeton and Aline Barnes. The grand jury failed to return a true bill against James Robert Jackson of Woodville on charges of attempted rape and pandering arising from an incident which occurred last July 4. Zoning Administrator Announces Resignation In a letter to the Rappahannock supervisors dated November 10, Alexander Sharp announced his resignation from the joint position of zoning administrator and building official. “I was hoping that this job would be compatible with farming but I find that not to be the case,” Sharp wrote. continue farming on his present scale and adequately serve the county at the same time. He concluded his letter of resignation by apologizing for any inconvenience he may have caused the board. Sharp was hired as zoning administrator-building official in September but didn't take over the slot until midOctober in order to complete the apple harvest at two orchards he manages. The combination zoning administrator and building * WpwWI position was created by the supervisors in August as a two-day-perweek job with an annual salary of S6.000. Noise Debate Goes On. . . And On. . . And On By DAI’HNK HUTCHINSON Ha|ip«kaniMMi Vs» Malt I rilrr At Thursday’s special meeting, the Rappahannock supervisors again continued a proposed dance hall ordinance that’s aimed at controlling allegedly excessive noise from the community center near Washington. They agreed, however, to look into purchasing a noise meter, authorizing Washington attorney David Konick to investigate prices on their behalf. Douglas Baumgardner, commonwealth’s attorney and legal advisor to the r===== county’s governing bodies, recalled that he’d drawn up a dance hall ordinance last year at the board’s request and was now bringing that ordinance back before the supervisors after being asked to do so by several individuals. (The board took no action on the dance hall ordinance when it was first proposed.) Referring to complaints from Claybert Smoot regarding excessive noise at the community center on Fodderstack Road just outside Washington, Baumgardner said he hadn’t "actually witnessed this situation or been present when it occurred.” If the supervisors want to react to Smoot’s complaints by adopting an ordinance to control noise, then a dance hall ordinance is the way to proceed, he said. “Do we need a noise monitor?" asked acting chairman J. R. Latham. Baumgardner replied that enforcement of noise restrictions set by Article 13 of the Rappahannock zoning ordinance would require purchase of expensive monitoring equipment. In addition, he noted that Article 13 regulations may be “too vague” to apply to the community center. He suggested instead that the supervisors revise the noise standards for use with any dance hall ordinance. Adopting less complicated noise level tables will permit the purchase of less complicated, cheaper equipment, according to the commonwealth’s attorney. License Fees Baumgardner explained that under the provisions of the ordinance he drafted last year, dance halls will have to be licensed at a fee. In issuing a license, the administrator can attach “reasonable conditions” and revoke the permit if the conditions aren’t met. “Can we exempt non-profit organizations?” asked Latham. The commonwealth’s attorney replied that the ordinance includes a provision for exempting dances held for benevolent or charitable purposes by religious, educational, military or civic groups.

Miller told the supervisors that he'd been asked by Gaybert Smoot to drive up to the community center at 10 o’clock on a recent weekend night. “I sat up in his yard and rolled my car windows up and I could hear it plain...There were cars parked everywhere, even in the Masonic cemetery,” Miller said. Also, an individual who lives V* mile from the center and is “afraid to testify” reportedly told Miller that she can hear noise from the center “just as (Continued on Page 8) Supervisors Appoint Campbell The Rappahannock School Board members voted unanimously late Tuesday night to hire Thomas S. Campbell of Luray as assistant principal of the elementary school. The action came after a long executive session (for personnel, protection of privacy of individuals on matters unrelated to public business and items which may be put out on bids) which did not end until 1:40 a.m. Campbell graduated from Luray High School in 1967 and earned a bachelors degree in social science from Wake Forest University in 1971. His masters degree is from University of Virginia in educational administration, awarded in 1975. The 32-year-old bachelor taught for a year in elementary school in Greene County before returning to his home county of Luray where he taught for two years at both the elementary school and secondary levels. He also served as administrative assistant at Luray High School for two years and . assistant principal and athletic director there for three years. — Rappahannock New* Photo/Sarah I a I ham SCOTT KEITH LEY, holder of the cross country course record at RCHS, finished fourth in the regional meet held last week at Mt. Jackson. Keithley Finishes 4th In Regionals Scott Keithley was the fourth runner to cross the Finish line at last Wednesday’s Group A, Region B cross country championships in Mount Jackson. The RCHS sophomore's time of 16:30 over the 2.9 mile course was just 20 seconds behind the third place finisher and 42.3 seconds off the winning time. Team results put Rappahannock third with 74 points. Stonewall was first with 43 and Fluvanna second with 70 in the eight-school meet. Four other RCHS runners Finished in the top 25 in regional competition. Larry Sisk covered the course in 17:16, Ronnie Atkins in 17:38, Craig Kenyon in 17:48 and Mike Tomko in 17:55. The regional meet was the stage for a showdown between two young men considered to be the state's top runners. In a classic battle to the wire, John Brumback of Stonewall Jackson passed Fluvanna’s Collis Jackson with less than ten yards to go after Jackson had led by as much as 20 yards midway through the third mile. Brumback broke the tape in 15:47.7, four seconds off the course record and threetenths of a second ahead of Jackson. Rappahannock’s runners will compete this week in the state championships at Piedmont College in Charlottesville. The state meet also will offer a rematch between Jackson and Brumback for Virginia's cross country crown.

Aging Troupers Recall Golden Days Of Theatre By THERESA REYNOLDS Rappahannock New* Staff Writer He was the handsome, imposing actor with the firm jaw and booming voice. She was the beautiful young musical comedy star • at 30 an old-timer already in the New York theater. Still together more than SO years after they met, Edward and Helen Pawley have starred in every kind of dramatic production available in the pre-television years of their careers. For the past 30 years, the Pawleys have made their home in Rappahannock County and have lent their grace and vitality to the roles they have played here. Their home now is at Rock Mills, the juncture of the Thornton and Rush rivers, a once-bustling commercial crossroads serving farms along both rivers. The Pawleys met while playing opposite each other in Life is Like That She was Helen Shipman then, an actress and singer since the Experienced end Fully Insured Modem Equipment Call Today For Free Eatlmare ®lir Ibiitaiub Imita Bruce VlerHng 675-3665 Flint Hill, Ve. 675-350$! age of three. She’d already achieved stardom in vaudeville, performing in light comedy and in her own shows where she did a combination of singing, dancing and impersonations. As a “mature” actress in her teens and twenties she played roles of increasing importance and won critical acclaim in theatres throughout the country. In the summer of 1920 she played the starring role in Irene and went on tour to Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago. In Chicago, the famous and irascible critic, Percy Hammond, reviewed her performance with unaccustomed good will: "Miss Shipman is a new star upon this orbit...New to our prairie theatre, she burst out last night at the Garrick...the happiest prima donna I ever saw.” Accompanied by her mother, this new star sailed for Paris to study Opera and to improve her study of French, Italian and Spanish. Her return to the states was marked by more successes, and she starred in musical revues and comedies in New York and on the road. Reviewers and critics commented often on her beauty as well as her talent. Famous artists and photographers did her portrait, her name was in giant lights on Broadway, and her life was a whirl of hard work and parties with people like George Gershwin, Jerome Kern, Flo Ziegfield, George Jessel, and the Marx brothers.

The introduction of sound in motion pictures meant retirement for movie stars who were not able to speak correctly, and scouts searched New York for serious actors. Ed Pawley had offers from all of the major Hollywood studios. For Life is Like That Helen was auditioned and the producer liked her but said he needed a blonde because the other woman in the play was a brunette. “Mother was a genius,” Helen said. “We stayed up all night and by morning I was a blonde." She got the part. The young Edward Pawley, a genious actor who had appeared in many New York productions, was awed by the famous and beautiful star with whom he was cast in 1930. “I knew her as a blonde,” Pawley said. “And she kept the blonde hair for years rather than tell me that it had been done just for the show. The funny thing was...I didn’t even like blondes. I just liked her.” Pawley had been stagestruck since he was a young boy in Missouri. A gifted teacher had cast him in a high school play and encouraged him to use his distinctive voice and dramatic flair • in serious parts. His deep, commanding ,*<** *luUMgpt m the daily drama of the newsroom: before teletype, the Associated Press used people with a distinct way of speaking to read the news over the wires. From there he went to join his half-brother’s touring tent-show troupe and from there back to finish high school. And then on to Broadway. Ed Pawley made the rounds of producers and casting directors during the New York theatre’s most exciting era. Theatres crowded each other along the famous street and clustered on every side street. The young man walked in circles around the city with ever-increasing discouragement. He was 19 and at times, he says, “I wondered how I ever thought that I could break into the theatre business.” One gloomy day Pawley visited an office in the Hudson Theatre, one that he’d visited before. The casting director had been helpful but had said, in effect, “Don’t call me - I’ll calf you.” “Something drew me to this office,” Pawley said. “He handed me a minor .ppjrtrrth**■„ ««, ~ Chinaman—and said to read it and to read the understudy for the leading man. As you can imagine, no bit part ever received more care and attention than that part of a few minutes.” Pawley wandered through Chinatown, observing and listening to the various dialects until he could imitate the rhythm perfectly. He got the part, took the next train to Norfolk, and' was on his way to becoming a working actor. Pawley’s approach to his new career was marked by hard work and study. “I’d take a subway out to the Palisades,” he said. “I’d have two peaches that I’d bought for one cent. I’d eat the peaches—that would be my lunch—and then I’d put the pits under by tongue and talk around them to improve my elocution.” Pawley’s next performance was in The Bat—one of the most successful mystery plays of the day. In 1923 he won a part that gave him his start as a villain—one of many that the steely-eyed, dark actor would play in his day. He was the sinister seducer in The Shame Woman. Pawley also tried his hand at radio performing, a medium still in its infancy in the 1920s. He was —Rapfttkannnct N«« Phnln/T.

Wayland Lime Spreading Self-Operated call 987-8132 HELEN PAWLEY IN 1915 called—somewhat to his embarrassment at the time—“the love story boy” on the Collier Love Story Hour. Although Pawley had received consistently good reviews, he needed a special role to establish him as a major actor. Hmer Gantry was that role, perfect for Pawley with his rugged looks and resonant voice. Evidently Pawley was a bit too perfect in the Gantry part because he was denounced from the pulpits of Cleveland in the summer of 1928 and protesters heckled from the audience. In retrospect, Pawley thinks that the criticism of the churches might have helped the play. In any event, it was a sensation. Pawley’s success in Gantry came at a time when sound was introduced into movies. Hollywood was discovering that many of the handsome leading men of the silent pictures had high squeaky voices or could not act convincingly in the less exaggerated manner called , for by “talkie*.” , H ! Scouts scoured Broadway looking for “real” actors, and ' Ed Pawley got offers from all the major studios. He took off for Hollywood in J930 and there appeared in more than 60 pictures, sharing the bill with stars like James Cagney, Bing Crosby, W. C. Fields, Irene Dunne, Humphrey Bogart, and Myrna Loy. Pawley’s role was still usually th^t of a villain and he played several types of villains: a pirate in the Wallace Beery version of Treasure Island; John Dillinger in G-Man; the evil hillbilly in Mountain Justice. In real life, though, Pawley at last won the part of a romantic leading man. He and Helen married in Hollywood in 1937. Pawley had to beat out several other suitors to win his bride. Helen at that time was appearing in movies with a number of male stars and at least one had proposed: "Nelson Eddy was a good friend and we went out a great deal,” she said. “He wanted to get married but I preferred Ed.” Helen pointed out that although she and Eddy saw each other a lot, they were very well-chaperoned. “Well, we both lived with our mothers,” she said. “When we went out we sometimes had not only my mother, but his with us too.” The Pawleys stayed in Hollywood until 1942 when they returned to New York to star in a play that introduced a handsome new youngster—Gregory Peck. The Pawleys decided that they were Easterners after all and they stayed in New York Planning a Party?

Still vigorous, inventive and full of spirit in their retirement, they have tried their hand at several businesses* here: raising goats, keeping a country store, marketing a special product of fruit packed in honey. They’ve lived in Amissville as well as Rock Mills. Since their move to Rock Mills in 1955^ the Pawleys have identified themselves closely with the area. Historical research has convinced them that Rock Mills was the first county seat. Long ago there was a grist mill, a stave-making operation and possibly a distillery. The old mill had its own water system with pipes made out of wooden logs. There always had been some kind of a general store like the one the Pawleys bought from Captain Norman and christened Old Cash and Totem. “There was more activity here when we first moved,” Helen chimed in. “There were more families here. The school bus went by our store and stopped for the children to run in for a snack.” The little store is gone now, dismantled and carted away for materials. The face of the river crossroads was changed dramatically by the summer flood of 1979. Only part of the dressed rock foundation remains from the old mill. In the summer you can sometimes hear the voices of young people from the swimming hole at Roaring Rock. But often the crossroads are deserted and still, with only the rivers passing and the retired actors watching over it all from their little house on the bluff, still together after more than SO years of playing opposite each other in whatever drama life brings their way. •ANTIQUES Early American •KNITTING YARNS Wools & Acrylics •NEEDLEPOINT Pre-worked and Painted •LATCHHOOK Wool Rugs •LADIES SPORTSWEAR The Farm Cottage ■ Stevensburg, Va. 399-1777 Give Someone ■ STAINED CLASS This Christmas Custom-designed, handmade Mirrors • Lamps • Sun Catchers Windows • etc. Son*' mi ^7dVh%n_ (OHITtlei./Thurs.; weekends) Lerner’s 62nd ANNIVERSARY Continues through Nov. 21 Special low prices on Men s Coveralls, Bib Overalls and Corduroy Work Pants ^ Men’s Work Shoes & Gum Boots Ladies Oxfords, Casual & Dress Shoes LERNER’S DEPT.

Lebanon Baptist Church in Scrabble. Helen Holschuh, troop consultant, put an emphasis on girl scouting by showing slides illustrating her 30 year involvement with the organization. The investiture shared the spotlight at Tuesday’s parents’ night with a fingerpuppet show put on by Billielee Ballard and Crystal Jenkins. The storyline was about a disabled Brownie in a wheelchair and how her troop helped her to overcome physical barriers which prevented her from attending meetings. This year is the International Year of Disabled Persons and troop 955 is working hard to earn the IYDP Badge. One of the requirements is to raise concern and awareness of physical barriers and to educate the public about what can be done to help disabled persons become more self-reliant within their communities. Troop 955 meets the first three Wednesdays of each month in Scrabble and has room for a few more members. Anyone interested in joining should call Marybeth Rustic at 987-8726. ■Amissville News Miss Phoebe Green has returned home after a weekend in Williamsburg where she was the guest of Mrs. George Oliver and attended homecoming festivities at the College of William and Mary.

REALTY WORLD HOUSE SHOWING TIPS The most critics! phase of home-selling is showing your home. What the prospect sees and feels during that showing will • more than anything else • affect his decision on whether or not to buy. Here are some tips for the seller when the house is being shown: Be courteous but don’t force conversation with the potential buyer. He wants to inspect your home - not pay a social call. Avoid having too many people present during inspections. The prospect may feel like an intruder and hurry through the house. Let your REALTOR do the escorting and showing of the house. He knows the prospect's requirements and can better emphasize the features of your home when you don't tag along. You will be called if needed. Let your REALTOR discuss price, terms, possession and other factors with the prospect. Don’t ever get into any personal negotiations or you'll lose the effect of your REALTOR'S strongest advantage.

NOVEMBER 12.1981 Veterans Remember First Armistice Three Rappahannock natives vividly remember where they were and what they were doing when news reached them that an armistice had been signed ending World War I. In recognition of Veterans Day. November 11, the following interviews written by Capt. Howard Holschuh of Castleton are reprinted from The Voice of Experience, the Area Agency on Aging’s monthly newsletter. ~ • -V-v* * * BRYAN JOHNSON W. Bryan Johnson, of Woodville, spent the first Armistice.-day'aiding *00,** switch engine -up l»w« the railroad yard in front, of the hospital at Nevairs, Prance, where he was recuperating from chest wounds. One of the American nurses at the hospital was the daughter of a railroad engineer from Port Chester, N. Y.. and had learned how to operate a locomotive. When news was received on November 11, 1918, that the war was over, she took Bryan and serveral of his buddies on a joy ride he will never forget. Bryan was born July 23, 1897, in Rappahannock county. He was in Richmond when war was declared, and enlisted in the Army cavalry. Shortly after reporting to Ft. Oglethorpe, Ga., his cavalry unit was disbanded and became an artillery branch, with most of the men going to Hawaii for duty. Bryan, however, stayed with his horse, and together they began training for scout and dispatch rider duties, and sailed for France aboard the converted passenger liner Martha Washington. Their S-ship convoy landed in Brest, where 28,000 men and their animals were moved in box cars (designated for "40 men or 8 horses") for the overland trip to Paris. Enroute, it was so cold, Bryan recalls finding a sheet of metal, and building a fire inside the box car on it. The fire was so hot it burned through the floor, but Bryan still came down with penumonia, and was hospitalized upon arrival in Versailles. After two months in the hospital. Sergeant Johnson went AWOL, found his unit, and was reunited with his horse. They served as liaison with the 77th and 81st companies of the 6th Marines, on the front, then just 1^ miles from Paris. During the German advance on Paris, his unit suffered 81 percent casualties. Bryan himself was wounded twice, and his horse was killed out from under him by a shell explosion, which left Bryan unconscious for 10 days. Once piece of shrapnel entered under his right arm and exited from his left chest. A second piece entered at the base of his spine, striking his left hip joint before exiting. Bryan was recovering from these wounds when the * armistice was declared. He returned home via Norfolk the following May, and was discharged on June 6, 1919. In the following years, Bryan worked in a bank, studied both law and business administration, and ended up as an engineer with Esso and Pure Oil companies. One of his accomplishments was designing an oil storage yard at Mt. Vernon, N. Y. In the ’30s, a small piece of brass was removed from Bryan’s lower back, which he believes shattered from his horse’s saddle when they were hit during WWI. Bryan is now retired and living with his wife at the foot of Red Oak Mountain, within sight of his birthplace, and within “shouting distance” of his three brothers. He keeps active with bees, and the Rappahannock Lions Club. PRESTON BROWNING First Lieutenant Preston Mercer Browning of Culpeper, was commander of Company C, 104th Supply Train, carrying food and ammunition in long truck convoys to troops at the front when the armistice was announced on November 11, .1918., He remembered a short time before being quartered in a house in a little French village near the front when the Germans began a strafing attack at night. Press was watching from the window of the house as the German plane flew up and down the street in both directions, machine gunning everything in sight. Press might have been hit, had it not been for a Culpeper buddy, Captain J. R. Kerrick, who ordered him away from the window. Capt. Kerrick was the highest ranking Culpeper soldier in WWI, so Press figured he should obey his command. As soon as he could. Press took leave and went to Paris, to join the other troops “whooping it up.” They drank up all the wine left in France, Press said. Did he enjoy the French wine? Yes, and the French women too, he admitted, with a twinkle in his eye. Press Browning was born March 6, 1892, in Rappahannock County, and after graduation from VPI, joined the Army National Guard in 1916. Press was sent with a number of other Culpeper men to Brownsville, Texas, where they occupied themselves chasing Pancho Villa along the Mexican border. He has vivid memories of sleeping in tents with wall flaps that rolled up, and of doing zany things with other Culpeper men on duty there. When the U. S. entered World War 1, Press headed for the port of embarkation in New York. But he developed a bad case of mumps enroute, and missed bis ship for France. He caught up with his unit later, however. That was the time the Germans were shelling Paris with their long range cannon, “Big Bertha.” But things like that didn’t worry Press. He was too busy sightseeing in Paris with a young French lady he had met at the Hotel Grand. Press has a fond memory of seeing General Pershing in a parade. He was riding in a Locomobile, which was the biggest and most expensive car the young Virginia had ever seen. From his many supply convoy trips to the front, Press has preserved the memory of the stunning beauty of the Swiss Alps covered with snow. On one mission, his heavy trucks were stopped in their tracks by the worst traffic jam ever to hit France. Capt. Kerrick described it as “right smart folks in town.” Fortunately, French gendarmes were finally able to straighten things out, and the trucks proceeded on their assignment. Press returned to New York, in the spring of 1919 aboard the Navy troop carrier USS Manchuria. He was discharged at Fort Meade, Md. Press still works every day in the Browning Real Estate agency on South Main Street ip Culpeper. He proudly displays in his office large framed photographs of his Company C, and of the USS Manchuria. CARY THORNHILL Cary G. Thornhill, of Boston, Virginia, was attached to Headquarters of the 6th Army Corps, which had just launched an offensive in the Mosselle area when news of the armistice reached him on November 11, 1918. Cary says there was “right smart activity” at the front, and unfortunately, the orderly who was sent up to the front lines to notify the troops that peace had come was killed before he could deliver his joyous message. i " • y » i i Nevertheless, there was much celebrating, with men tossing their hats or caps into the air in jubilation. Cary was born October 20, 1891, in Warrenton, but his parents moved to Rappahannock when he was S to take over the farm which had been in his mother’s family for generations. Cary joined the Culpeper Minute Men at an early age, but his three-year enlistment was over before, the Mexican revolution heated up, so he stayed at home while many of his buddies went south to check on Pancho Villa. However, when the U. S. declared war on the Kaiser, Cary joined the army on May 24, 1918, and two months to the day later, landed in Brest, France. The crossing took 11 days from Norfolk, he recollects, and from the decks of the “Italian cattle boat” Duca d’Asta, he could see the Navy escort ship fire at something, but nobody told him whether it was an enemy submarine or not. The 2,600 men aboard (Continued on Page 5) Our Rappahannock Heritage — —Rappahannock New* Staff Photo/John Toler Letter To The Editor Farmers Must Moonlight To the editor: You recently wrote about the local farmers who are buying the Front Royal Livestock Market being different from the “lawyers, doctors, airline pilots or other professionals looking for a tax write-off." That reminds me of the old joke that if you want a farm you have to marry one, inherit one, or study medicine. I think it is great that these farmers are buying the livestock market. But one of the reasons I’m sure, is that it is so difficult, almost impossible, to be a straight farmer these days. Those that are making it at farming find that they have to moonlight some way or other, whether by working at Southern States, selling real estate, direct marketing, food processing, or by being a doctor or lawyer. It is ironic that farming, that is, family farming, the very backbone of our economy and our democracy, does not offer the opportunity to young people that they seem to find more easily in other fields. But this is hopefully changing. Meanwhile, if it takes inherited wealth, doctors, lawyers and other professionals looking for a tax write-off to keep land in farming, so be it. (Incidentally, there are lots easier ways to get a tax writeoff if that is all these people really wanted.) The land needs all the help it can get until such time as farming once more becomes a profession. As Thomas Jefferson said in 1803, trying to persuade students to go into agriculture rather than other studies: In every college and university, a professorship of agriculture, and the class of its students, might be honored as the first. Young men closing their academical education with this, as the crown of all other sciences, fascinated with its solid charms, and at a time when they are to choose an occupation, instead of crowding the other classes, would return ta the farms of their fathers, their own, or those of others, and replenish and invigorate a calling now languishing under contempt and oppression. MIRIAM S. HARRIS Huntly (Editor’s note: We agree that the land needs all the help it can get and we give our whole-hearted support to full-time, part-time and playtime farmers. The point we were trying to make in the livestock market story—and obviously we missed the mark—is that it's heartening to see experienced farmers who make their living solely from the land believe enough in the future of agriculture in this area to sink their hardearned dollars into an agriculturally-related business.) Orders Taken For Johnson’s County History As a result of a direct mail campaign and a large ad in the Rappahannock News, orders are pouring into the Rappahannock Historical Society for Ned and Elisabeth Johnson’s book, “Rappahannock County, Fact, Fiction, Foolishness, and the Fairfax Story”. The Johnsons have spent well over three years writing this book, beginning first with Ned’s reminiscences about his long life in the county and those of his father before him. From there they went to the facts, spending long hours in the archives of the Virginia State Library and the National Archives, to research an elusive bit of information. So that the factual part of the book is as accurate as they could make it. Orders are coming in from many states, California, Missouri, Nebraska, Kentucky...most from descendants of original Rappahannock families who want to read about the county of their forefathers. The Johnsons have included in the book lists of old mills, old churches, including those black churches whose history was available, the old oneroom schools, a list of all those who went off to war, early roads and canals. Until November 20, the book is available on order for $15.95 plus tax. After that, the book goes up to $19.95. It is expected that the book will be available for delivery on or about December 15. The Rappahannock Historical Society is handling the sale of the book for the Johnsons. fy. — Hn|t|>HhMiuMM'k Nn\«l'ht»|ii/S.

Probation Revoked (Continued from Page 1) center if he was released from jail. Commonwealth’s attorney Baumgardner emphasized that Pullen has been back before the court four times since he was convicted and received a five-year suspended sentence for a felony. The time has come to draw the line, he maintained, advocating that DeBergh’s recommendation be adopted. In concurrence. Judge Shore Robertson revoked Pullen’s probation, requiring that he attend the alcohol abuse program outlined by the probation officer, with the case continued until the May court term for review. Escapees Sentenced Also on Monday, Judae Robertson sentenced Charles L. Longerbeam, 21, of Sterling and Richard W. Courtney, 32, of Berryville to serve an additional year in jail for felonious escape from a convict road crew that was working in Rappahannock last April. Courtland, who was serving 90 months on eight charges of breaking and entering and grand larceny, told the court that depression led to his attempted escape. He said he’d informed the counselor working with him on his alcohol problem that he wanted to be released from the road gang. “I’d been on for three years ...every day.” According to Courtland’s court appointed attorney, Washington lawyer Sharon Genebach Luke, his attempted escape cost Courtland IS months of time that would have been dropped from his sentence for good behavior. Serving a ten year sentence, five years suspended, for distribution of PCP, Charles Longerbeam told the court he was eligible for parole last month but has not yet had a parole hearing. His escape attempt cost him 190 days of good time, according to Longerbeam. The probation officer noted that Longerbeam had received an excellent progress report from the Department of Corrections. “It’s one of the better ones I’ve ever read,” DeBergh said. Robertson imposed the minimum one year sentence on both men, noting that it would run consecutively to any other sentence. +++-tLove is the marrow of friendship. —James Howell The Little Fox [DE?R£$5I0N!] > Is. 1190 N ovtojcff iff

Cameron Finishes Recruit Training Seaman Recruit Dale R. Cameron, son of Mrs. Lucille Cameron of Petersburg, W. Va., formerly of Washington, has completed recruit training at the Navy Training Center in San Diego, Calif. During the eight-week training cycle Cameron studied general military subjects designed to prepare him for further academic and on the job training in one of the Navy’s 85 basic occupational fields. Cameron' is a 1981 graduate of Petersburg High School. He joined the Navy in June. was assigned to the 3rd Cavalry, presumably because he could ride a horse. His lieutenant fell off his mount and broke his arm; he was never seen again. A buddy from Norfolk couldn’t ride either, and was assigned to KP instead. Cary recalls his unit had to make an all night march to the railhead to catch the train to the front. It rained that entire night, and three men died later of pneumonia. After the war, Cary served in the Army of Occupation until the end of August 1919. Since there were few duties assigned to him, Cary volunteered to drive a truck and spent many days and nights on the road hauling ice cream and moving picture machines to troops stationed in little German villages up and down the Rhine. On his first night mission, Cary was arrested by MFs and put in jail for violating The \darkroom ^solution. ce your own prints... faster...easier. • Just one processing solution • No chemical mixing • No fussy temperature control • Compact printmaker.

His supervisors thereupon issued him a pass, and painted a sign on his truck saying: “This truck is not to be stopped.” One evening, while heading for a carnival in the Rhineland city of Coblenz, Cary quite by accident met two other Rappahannock men, George Tidier and Tim Coats. The three had dinner together. One slack day, Cary volunteered for KP, and did such a good job scrubbing the pots that the cook invited him back twice a week to make (and eat) fresh biscuits. We made 800 biscuits a day, he said. Cary still remembers his rifle number, and will rattle it off with the same snap and precision he doubtless used before his drill sergeant six decades ago. When World War II loomed on the horizon, Cary went to work for the U. S. Naval Ordance Laboratory, White Oak, in Silver Spring, Md. His co-workers called him "pappy.” Cary retired to his 18th century homestead again in 1960, and now has the support of his son and grandsons in running the family farm. Cary still waters more than 100 Angus and white face calves every day. He does not wear glasses, but can read old maps and newspapers with the facility of a man one-third his age.

The pain is often directly attributed to a poorly functioning foot. As a matter of tact, it is quite common for a flatfooted child to complain of aching leg muscles, especially after activity. When the foot is not functioning properly, excessive stress is placed on these leg muscles and they may go into spasm. All children will complain of some discomfort in parts of their body from time to time, but recurrent pain in the same area should be followed up.

When dances at Flatwood Inn on Route 211 sparked complaints, he continued, the supervisors passed an ordinance that required the establishment to close at mi&night -“It was a colored dance hall,” Miller added. “If you close one at 12, you’ve got to close them all at 12,” Latham responded. “No sirl” countered Miller. "Flatwood was the only one that had to dose because it was the only one that had complaints.” (The earlier dance hall ordinance passed by the board applied countywide, not just to Flatwood Inn. When . first . adopted, it sperified midnight as closing time. Subsequently, the board changed the hour to 1 a.m. and finally to 2 a.m.) Returning to the subject of the community center. Miller daimed that “they make a hell of a lot of noise up there...They go on until 2 a.m. It’s ;a nuisance—-just a place they can go and do as they please.” “I don’t see why state laws can’t be used to control this,” said Latham, objecting to the adoption of another local ordinance. Baumgardner noted that the Virginia Code allows localities to adopt their own dance hall regulation* bat does not set any statewide laws governing that type of activity. “You passed a law to take the tax off farm machinery and put it on cars and raised taxes...You passed that land use thing...” “That’s a different subject,” Latham interjected. “No—if you all can pass things like that, why can’t you pass a law to dose at 12?” Miller demanded. curfew for the community center without affecting the rest (of the dances held in the county)?” Latham asked the commonwealth’s attorney. Baumgardner answered that he’d have to research the question but didn’t think it would be possible. Supervisor Hubert Gilkey said he thought provisions of the proposed dance hall ordinance were reasonable. “I don’t think this would work a hardship on anyone else who has a dance,” he added. . “Is this a church related thing?” asked - supervisor H. B. Wood, referring to the community center activities. “Church doesn’t have anything to do with it.

Class A - Contractor's License the civic league,” Miller replied. “It was my hope that this activity would become unpopular enough in the community that we wouldn’t have to pass a law. People don’t usually stay where they aren’t wanted,’* said Latham. Gilkey maintained that the reason few people have complained about the community center is because only a few are affected. Thct’s not the case, according to Miller. “They just simply don’t want to appear because they’re afraid to* come...They don’t know what they’ll dp to them.” Smoot asked the commonwealth’s attorney if he’d received any other complaints through his office on noise from the community center. “1 don’t know of any but from you,” Baumgardner replied. : Washington attorney David Konick reminded the supervisors that they’d agreed by resolution to purchase noise monitoring equipment in response to a circuit court order that they do so as part of the settlement of the Nationwide Pentecostal Evangelistic Association’s campground case. The noise scale set by the court order could be made part of the dance hall ordinance, he suggested. According to Konick, the equipment used to monitor that type of noise scale costs approximately $500. Returning to his noise complaints, Smoot told the supervisors that he’d called Washington mayor Newbill Miller one night “and he sat in his yard and heard it at 12 o’clock.” Smoot acknowledged that some of the activities held at the community center create no disturbance but at others, participants are “sitting in their cars, blowing their car horns, whooping and hollering.” “If you say that some nights it’s fine and on others, it’s noisy, who’s going to be the judge? Host are we going to enforce this?" asked Wood. “How come the law can’t come up there and check on it?’’ Smoot demanded. He claimed that he’d called deputy John Henry Woodward last Friday night and that he’d refused to come up to the community center. The deputy and sheriff W. A. Buntin both countered that Woodward hadn’t refused to come; that he’d only told Smoot he couldn’t close the center down without authorization from the commonwealth’s attorney. Over 100 Vtrita (According to the sheriff, he and his deputies have checked the community center well over 100 times in the past five years in response to Smoot’s complaints. Buntin said he found things “a little loud” on a “very few times during the summer.”) (In each instance, the . parties using the center were asked to turn down the music and they immediately complied, according to the sheriff. "We’ve never caught anyone parked in the cemetery or in Mr. Smoot’s driveway,” he said, adding that the state police also have investigated Smoot’s noise complaints a hundred or so times with the same results.) To reduce noise, Ruth Kilby suggested that the use of amplifiers be discontinued. As for enforcing noise restrictions, Konick said that decibel level readings could be taken at the adjoining property line and if the meter registers over the limit, the dance could be closed down. “Next thing you know, we’ll have people checking on my cows at weaning time because they’re too noisy!” joked supervisor Wood. The board agreed to continue consideration of the proposed dance hall ordinance at the December 7 meeting. After he volunteered, the supervisors also decided to have Konick get quotations on noise meter prices and bring the information to next month’s session.
