In an answer to an inquiry from commonwealth's attorney Douglas Baumgardner. Gerald Baliles noted that an opinion issued 20 years ago held that a county may not regulate in this area, "that localities have no authority to regulate hunting" “While a few specific aspects of the game laws, such as hunting near highways and (he use of certain firearms have expressly been made subject to local option... no general grant of authority to localities to regulate hunting and — Rappahanncak Nr*.

The Rappahannock Races are scheduled for Saturday, March 6 beginning at 11 a.m. at the Thornton Hill Farm course on Route 522 just south of Sperry ville. irapping has ever been made by the General Assembly,” the Attorney General noted. Baliles pointed out that Game Commission regulations already in effect prohibit the trapping of foxes in six counties. including Rappahannock. The issue of trapping came up at a meeting called earlier this year by the supervisors to address the problem of hunting abuses in Rappahannock. The recommendations of a special committee appointed by the supervisors centered around petitioning the Virginia Game Commission to equalize the deer season east and west of the Blue Ridge Mountains and prohibit running deer with dogs in Rappahannock. In a split vote, the supervisors later endorsed the committee's recommendations. Rappahannock’s requests will be considered at the Game Commission’s public hearing on hunting regulations set for February 26 in Richmond. There was some confusion at that earlier meeting of the supervisors, however, over what can be done locally if the Game Commission fails to ban running deer with dogs in the county. The 1962 opinion referred to by Baliles in his letter to Baumgardner states that the Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries is vested with sole jurisdiction to enforce all laws for the protection, propagation and preservation of game birds and animals. "That Commission has been empowered to promulgate rules and regulations to determine when and by what means it is desirable to restrict, extend Pair Race Kicks Off March 6 Rappahannock Point-To-Point By WENDY SIZER ^fflrilrr People wondering what to do Saturday March 6 are invited for a day of exciting horse racing, tailgate picnics, and fresh air at Thornton Hill Farm, Sperryville, a spot nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountain foothills. One of the most colorful springtime events, the Rappahannock Hunt Pointto-Point starts at 11 a.m. with the ever-popular hunter pair races in which amateur riders, fresh from a season of foxhunting, race in pairs over a 2 to 3 mile course comprised of numerous fences, coop jumps and rugged terrain. Riders, dressed in formal foxhunt! .g attire, vie for either the fastest time over the course or for the chance to match a time set earlier that morning by two pace setters (known as a race for optimum time). Those entered at the Casanova. Rappahannock. Blue Ridge. Piedmont, Middleburg, Old Dominion, and Fairfax pointto-points also compete for the Year End Hunter Pace Pair Championships, an award given to teams accumulating the most points in three categories: adult optimum time, adult fast time, and junior (15 and under) optimum time. Following the pair races, amateur jockeys don brightly colored racing silks and race their horses over hurdle and timber fences. Nine events, including the junior race, the ladies race. the hound race, and the wellknown Ben Venue Race (where points count toward the Seven Corners Trophy presented at season’s end) provide a day of fun end excitement for people of all ages. This year, in an effort to help the area handicapped, Rappahannock Race Committee members decided to donate a percentage of program proceeds to the FORE (Facility for Occupational and Rehabilitative Enterprises) Workshop. a private organization now biting the Reaganomics bullet. Thornton Hill Farm is located 1 'A miles south of Sperryville on Route 522. For further information, call (703)825-1849. or prohibit the provisions of law obtaining in this State for the hunting, taking, etc., of wild animals." While the 1%2 Attorney General's opinion apparently would preempt any action from Rappahannock to prohibit hunting deer with dogs. Baumgardner points out that section 29-213.17 of the Virginia Code confers on the supervisors authority to control dogs from running at large “during such months of the year as they may designate." The code section further defines running at large as the roaming, running or selfhunting off the property of the owners and “not under the owner’s immediate control." The portion referring to the owner’s immediate control could be interpreted as applying to deer hunters loosing dogs to Hush deer off property which they do not own. according to the commonwealth’s attorney. Tyler Enters Guilty Plea Anthony Wayne Tyler, 19, of Culpeper, pleaded guilty in circuit court on Thursday to five felony counts in connection with robberies which occurred last summer in Old Hollow. Tyler and three other individuals, Herman and Harriett Newman and Robert Norko (now deceased), all of Culpeper, were charged with breaking and entering and grand larceny on property owned by Robert Johnson and Mark Robb and r breaking and entering a house belonging to Clifford Lawson. In return for Tyler’s guilty plea, commonwealth's attorney Douglas Baumgardner agreed to recommend that any lime to serve as well as suspended time given Tyler run concurrently with the eight year term he’s already received on similar charges in Culpeper. Baumgardner noted, however, he will recommend that both served and suspended sentences on i he five indictments in Rappahannock run consecutively. After hearing stipulations on Tyler's part in the robberies. judge Shore Robertson found him guilty and directed a presentence report for March 8 at 9 a.m. A motion seeking to have arson indictments against Robert Clarence Martin dismissed on grounds of double jeopardy was overruled by judge Robert(Continued on Page 4) Garden Club Offers Grants This year, the Rappahannock County Garden Club will again offer the Francis J. and Margaret W.

In Proposed Budget Local Share Of Welfare Costs Down From A Year Ago By DAPHNE HI TCHINSON Rappahannock New*. Staff W riter While the highest unemployment levels in years have sent a line of new clients to the-welfare office, Rappahannock welfare department’s proposed 1982-83 budget shows only an eight percent increase over total spent this year for social services. In addition, the local share of the 1982-83 budget presented by acting director Nancy Reeve at last Fridav's board meeting is $48,221, two percent less than the $49,506 in local monev requested last year. (The supervisors cut the proposed 1981-82 budget by $4,000, bringing the amount of local money actually spent down to $45,790, five percent less than Rappahannock's share of the 1982-83 proposal.) "1 don’t see how in the world you could cut it any more." said welfare board Warden’s Powers Limited Also in relation to an issue which arose at the supervisors' meeting on hunting abuses, Baumgardner requested a second opinion from the Attorney General on enforcement powers of game wardens. In an answer dated February 11, Baliles replied that current law vests game wardens with authority to enforce specifically the hunting, trapping and inland fish laws. and. further, with general police powers on properties owned or controlled by the Commission. In addition, wardens are authorized to enforce certain other specified laws including drunk in public, disorderly conduct and misdemeanors of that character, according to the Attorney General's opinion. But with those exceptions, Baliles stated, game wardens may not enforce the general criminal laws of the Commonwealth. chairman Aline Johnson. “I don't know where it would come from...I hope we get this amount approved (by the supervisors). I don't see what else we could do.” Reeve replied. The budget totals $115,125, up $9,195 over the current year's $105,930. The biggest percentage increases come in assistances, attributable to (1) an incrased welfare caseload. (2) the state's continued effort to deinstitutionalize individuals formerly housed in facilities for the mentally retarded and (3) attempts to place the elderly in licensed domiciliary care rather than in nursing homes. Aged And Disabled In the proposed budget, assistance to the aged is up 72 percent from $6,610 to $11,368; assistance to the disabled jumps 31 percent from $10,003 to $13,141 and general relief is up 42 percent from $4,215 to $5,996. Special needs adoption payments shows an increase of over 400 percent (from $1,066 to $5,116) but Reeve explained that the figures are misleading since unexpended funds in that line item in the current budget year were transferred to regular foster care. Aid to dependent children foster care and regular foster care are the only assistance categories to have a decrease in the proposed budget, bringing the total increase for assistances to 17 percent (from $52,262 to $61,319). Reeve noted that a budget supplement may have to be submitted, upping the assistances total, if the state mandates adult foster care, an option currently under consideration. Even without a new mandated program, the proposed budget shaves it close in providing adequate funds, she said, adding that a state hospital had called that morning to report a Rappahannock patient is ready to be released to domiciliary care and requires an auxiliary grant to cover costs. Reeve said she had not anticipated that this person would be released from the state institution. “We're really going to be using our limits," she said. "It’s like foster care," the acting welfare director continued. “We don't know when we're going to have another child. We can’t predict when we’re going to have a family explode. When they do, we can’t not take the children." "I'm sitting on a potential three or four right now," added child services worker Sylvia Kreitler. "It could happen tonight." Purchased Services Down After Rappahannock’s welfare department tightened belts in 1981 to absorb federal budget cuts, the state revised the allocation formula for Title XX funds, leaving the county with $50,644 in federal dollars, a $2,100 increase over the final allocation for 1981-82. Rappahannock's Title XX Plan for next year services with a total cost of $37,408 compared to a purchased service expense of $48,927 in 1981-82.

All interested persons are urged to attend. Planners Approve Agricultural District With Several Tag Ons Rappahannock's planning commissioners borrowed a page from (he U. S. Postal Service's rule book last Wednesday and despite the frozen rain, sleet and snow that turned county roads into toboggan runs, they managed to gather a quorum at the courthouse for an advertised public hearing. It was the topic of the hearing that added urgency to the commission's efforts. After repeated procedural errors that have plagued considerations of J, J. Dwyer’s application for an agricultural and forestal district, the commissioners had finally dotted all the legal "i"s and crossed all the technical “f’s in the lengthy and complicated procedures for public notice. It the February 17 meeting had been cancelled, they would have had to begin all over again on an AFD application that was originally filed in May, 1981. Dwyer’s proposed agricultural district received a unanimous recommendation for approval from the planning commissioners. It covers a total of 1,642 acres and includes tag-on parcels from Phil Irwin (39.7 acres). Bob and Sue Lane (33 acres), Patricia Saltonstall (450 acres and 50 acres) and William E. Foster, Jr. (19 acres) in addition to Dwyer’s 1,050 acres. The planners denied a tagon request from Linda Dietel for a 196-acre tract, determining that the parcel lay outside the one mile distance limit from the core of the proposed district. Dwyer’s 1,050 acres. The application now goes to the supervisors for final action. 2nd Installment Professional planner Dick McNear braced icy roads to bring the commissioners the second installment of proposed revisions to the county’s zoning ordinance. In a major departure from current regulations, the draft revisions provide for uses allowed as special exceptions by permit from the board of supervisors. Uses in this category are those deemed to have countywide rather than just neighborhood impact. (Uses with neighborhood impact will continue to be allowed by special permit from the board of zoning appeals I General standards applicable to both special permits and special exceptions stipulate that the proposed use: —shall not adversely affect neighboring properties and shall be in accord with relevant zoning district regulations. — shall not generate hazardous pedestrian or vehicular traffic.

DeBergh’s Business Stretches As Far As A Phone Line By DAPHNK HI"TOH1YSO\ Knppnhannork N«-w« Naff VI rit«*'r When Jimmie DeBergh opened his Harris Hollow Frozen Fruit Company in the old Washington post office building last month, friends expected that he'd have plenty of raspberries, strawberries, cherries and peaches on hand. But DeBergh doesn't even have a freezer in the little one-room office—much less any fruit. His tools of trade are the telephone and friendly relationships he's developed with packers throughout the Northwest and California. When Jimmie wants to take home a onepound carton of blackberries, he stops at the grocery store just like everybody else. "In my business. I'm dealing with truckload and railcar quantities of frozen fruit." he explained. And no matter how tightly the DeBerghs' home freezer is packed, there just isn't enough roonv for a 50 gallon drum of Mexican strawberries or California peaches. Washington's newest businessman is a frozen fruit broker, connecting producers with buyers. "The vast majority of fruit packed for ice cream, toppings, yogurt, jams, jellies and pies is produced in the Northwest and California and most of ihe big buyers and big markeis are here in the East. They don't have any contacts on the other side of the country." DeBergh said. He provides those contacts. "If I get a call from soneone who wants blackberries, I call all the packers in the Northwest to find out what is available and at what price.” DeBergh doesn’t just take the first response either. Like an old-fashioned horse trader, he argues and dickers, bargaining away a few cents per pound in exchange for a commitment from the buyer to contract for an extra two or three thousand pounds. At the other end of the spectrum. he may get a call from an Oregon packer with a blueberry surplus. Then he gets busy scouting up buyers, telephoning Welch Food. Southland Corporation or Win-Dixie to see who can use a good deal on several railcars of fruit. "I don't just make a sale and take my commission." DeBergh explained. "I provide a service for both the packer and the buyer. I handle the logistics and the shipping. If they want one truckload in January, two in February and one in March. I make sure they get them on schedule. And I make sure it's the quality that the buyer wants." ftappaljannock Neuia Rappahannock & Adiominq Counties per year $ 7 00 Elsewhere in the U S per year $8 50 Outside the U S per year $7 00 plus postaae SUBSCRIPTION RATES BY MAIL ALL PAYABLE IN ADVANCE i )N('w i iRenew.H ■ iCneck t ncipsed NAME ADDRESS CITY STATE ZIP 1 • Mi’,».1'. ■ ivnn.i , M-, rn.ir .it 'I',' l’i ( i" , . n vV,n •. > 'of' V. i T ’ i ■ R. ipp. i1 rii'in u fji .r' "r'Ji'u"1, I'-i-t O.r. it '‘"l • 5"".

A graduate of the University of Richmond, he and his wife Beth settled in Front Royal after college. Jimmie worked for the Warren County Fiealth Department, evaluating soils, and spent weekends fixing up the family's home place in Harris Hollow. In 1978, he was hired as a purchasing agent for Old Virginia Jams and Jellies, a company he'd worked for during summers in college. It was then that he was introduced to the high powered brokerage profession, buying fruit from brokers across the country tor Ula Virginia. After two years with the Front Royal company. DeBergh was offered a job in Seattle. Washington, bv one of those fruit brokers. He saw it as a golden opportunity to grab his dream. "We knew that Rappahannock County was where we wanted to live for the rest of our lives. It was home, tradition, everything. 1 was always looking for a way to make a living here, a way to avoid that commute over the mountain. For a long time. I thought farming was the only way 1 was ever going to be able to work and live here. I even considered putting in an orchard." But exposure to the brokerage business showed him another avenue. "1 realized that you could live in Timbucktoo. on the planet Mars, or anywhere, just as long as you’ve got a telephone. You can have an office on the roof, in a closet, in the bathroom, just as long as it’s got a phone connection." DeBergh said. “1 can run up a $2,000 a month phone bill without blinking an eye!" He jumped at the chance to plunge into the business of buying and selling fruit, dealing with imports and The Corner Post Restaurant takes pleasure in announcing the appearance of Mike Fling at the Baldwin organ.

Then after mastering all the ins and outs, Jimmie DeBergh came back to Rappahannock with his Harris Hollow Frozen Fruit Company, opening his doors—and a line of credit with the telephone company—in January. “What I'm doing is unique," he explained. “Usually a broker on the East Coast with a fruit buyer will work through a broker on the West Coast with a fruit packer and split the commission. But you lose that personal touch, that extra bit of attention. I'm trying to live on the East Coast and deal with the West Coast packers myself." Rapport First Personable, outgoing with an easy smile that stretches into a wide grin, DeBergh formed more than just good working relationships with fruit packers while he was in Seattle. He forged friendships. “1 hunted with them, socialized with them. They’re my element!" This rapport is the key to the early success he’s had in just one month of his coast-to-coast business. With just a month under his belt. DeBergh already has an eye toward expanding his operations to include fresh fruit. specifically Rappahannock apples. As a purchasing agent for Old Virginia, he got to know county growers well. "1 like them. They're a great bunch of people but fresh products are an entirely different proposition than handling frozen fruit in quantities of hundreds of thousands of pounds," DeBergh said. "But it's an interesting, intriguing proposition.” he added. "There are four factors: the packing season here doesn’t begin until after the packing season in the Northwest is over. I know the markets. I know the people and it would be a service to the community. This is my first month in my first year of business and I'm alreadythinking about expanding!" he laughed. "But ideally. I’d love to get into it." DeBergh's enthusiasm for his work is unmistakable. In a telephone conversation with a representative from Smuckers. he chats knowingly of prices for 10, 20 and 30 pound poly bags and cartons of red raspberries and blackberries, of a packer with 34,000 pounds of peaches to sell at 34 cents a pound, of the "character” of Northwest fruit versus that of California fruit, of the effect of last week's Mexican peso devaluation on price of strawberries shipped from South of the Border. Asked what the IQFs mentioned in the conversation stood for, he launched into a detailed description of "Individually Quick Frozen" fruit, frozen in just 15 seconds, "so fast that hardly any ice crystals formed. There's minimal cellular destruction and the fruit retains its identity,” he explained. "Isn’t that interesting?" DeBergh asked with a wide smile, leaning back in his chair and stretching his arms wide. "This business is a blast! 1 live it sometimes 24 hours a day and I love it," he concluded. Kappahannork INrws I’hoto/D. Hutchinson JIMMIE DEBERGH spends hours on the telephone lifeline of his frozen fruit brokerage business, running up phone bills that would bankrupt the average household. The offices of his Harris Hollow Frozen Fruit Company are located in Washingtons old post office recently purchased by Doug Baumgardner. Baumgardner plans to remodel the building into a suite of offices, eventually adding a Williamsburg-style second story. Fire Season Dangers After a winter with plenty of snow, sleet, and rain, one tends to forget about the upcoming fire danger during March, April, and May. Why these three months? The answer lies with the lengthening days and warmer temperatures. This problem is compounded with the usually fierce winds of March. During the better part of these three months, tree leafout has not yet occurred, and therefore, sunlight and wind bear down directly on the forest floor. Under these Block Grant Workshop Set The RappahannockRapidan Planning District Commission will be conducting a Workshop on the 1981 Community and Economic Development Block Grant (CEDBG) Program on March 5. at the Culpeper Holiday Inn.

Kim Jacobson Weaves In Rappahannock’s Colors By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock !Ncw* Staff Writer Kim Jacobsen wanders the woods on Aaron Mountain throughout the four seasons, picking dandelions in the spring, daisies and purple clover in summer’s heat, apples and goldenrod in Autumn and pine needles as the snow falls. The wild plants, flowers from the garden, spices off the kitchen shelves, onions and cabbages from the icebox are tossed into a kettle and simmered to produce the natural dyes Kim uses to shade the cloth she weaves. While the pot of color bubbles on the kitchen stove, she sends a shuttle flying across her loom to create softly sensuous linen shirts that shine like silk and woolen tapestries that reflect the colors of Rappahannock’s hillsides. Few youngsters grow up dreaming of being a weaver and Kim was no exception. She was inclined towards the arts but just barely. “My father was an artist,” she explained. “But he wasn't at all involved in textiles—no one was in those days. It was even before macrame!” Kim's dad was a painter and sculptor with a working studio in the basement of their New Jersey home and a downtown studio for display. Her parents encouraged Kim to have an interest in art. “I was dragged to museums all over New York City beginning when I was about five,” she recalled, chuckling at the memory of those early bouts with culture. The artistic bug failed to bite, however, and Kim graduated from high school with no plans for what she would do with her life. “I had no idea—absolutely no idea—of what 1 wanted to be. Most kids know something. At least they know the general field they’re interested in—math, science, liberal arts. I didn’t.” She agreed to go to college only after striking a bargain with her mother that she try it for just one year. The school she chose was Beloit College in Wisconsin, an unconventional institution for its day, one of the first to offer a trimester program with a requirement that students spend at least one term in off-campus workstudy. Initially, Kim planned to try an anthropology major but by the time she arrived at school, Beloit’s three experts in the field had either retired, quit or been fired. With that option out the window, Kim dabbled here and there, concentrating r i DEADLINE All Candidates for Town of Washington Offices must file by the close of business March 2, 1982 in the Rappahannock County Circuit Court Clerk’s Office.

She still had no idea where she’d end up and it was only the suggestion of a friendly professor that steered her to classical literature and civilization. Looking around for an offcampus work-study program, the closest Kim could come to her field of classical civilization was the Smithsonian's 1975 Folklife Festival. From January until September of that year, she immersed herself in Americas’ classic folk art. “But to keep from forgetting my Latin, I used to check out old manuscripts at the Georgetown University Library to take home to read.” Kim added. After-hours Latin study wasn't enough, however, to relieve the tensions that build up in one of bureaucratic Washington’s least bureaucratic jobs. “It was my first office job and I felt the pressure even though it wasn’t regular government work at the Smithsonian.

At the same time, Kim conduct both continued her regular studies and graduated in August, 1976, adept at both weaving and the classics. After graduation, Kim returned to the D.C. area and settled in Fairfax County, working full-time as manager of a bookstore while weaving and teaching the craft on the side. She was determined to move further out to the country and one Sunday, spotted an ad for the little house she rents near Castleton in the Sunday paper. She fell in love with the county at the same time that she’d decided she had to choose between weaving and bookstores. Managing a business left her with neither time nor energy to pursue her craft as an after-hours hobby. “Weaving is WORK!” Kim emphasized. “It is taxing. I couldn't do both. Moving out here made the decision easy. There were no bookstores so I became a weaver full-time.” She makes the rounds of area craft fairs, giving demonstrations in weaving and spinning and displaying her creations of wool, linen and cotton for sale. She i works only in natural fibers. ‘‘1 don’t- use acrylics or synthetics. I want to stay away from the sheen of polyester and I want to prove to people that they can use natural fibers in their home...Cotton and linen work so well.

To prove this point, she has expanded her repertoire this year to include a household line: table mats and napkins, and custom made curtain and upholstery material. She joined Rush River last May and now has woven mirror frames, tapestries, shawls, scarfs and a line of shirts, cotton for summer and wool for winter, on display at the Washington artists’ cooperative.

KEAITO* MORTGAGE IS NOT A LOAN Contrary to what most people think, a mortgage is not a loan. It is the pledging of property to a creditor as security for the payment of a debt. This simply means that, if you don't repay the loan as required, the lender can foreclose the loan and take over the property in satisfaction of the debt. This is nothing to be frightened of. People make mortgage loans every day. Few people can avoid it if they want to own a home. It is just important to fully understand what a mortgage is. and the obligation it entails. Financing is a specialized subject, therefore it’s important for you to be candid with your Realtor about your family requirements, particularly your finances. He is not there to pry.

It’s ironic that Rappahannock’s school board members, so concerned to see that the Father of this country’s birthday be appropriately honored, should want to discard that concept, one of the principles that George Washington battl ‘d for so bravely. At Tuesday’s special budget meeting, the school board voted unanimously to seek a way around Virginia’s Freedom of Information Act. On a motion from Nelson Lane, the board agreed to check with their attorney, Phillip Stone, a recognzied expert on school board law, to see if they can legally meet behind closed doors to discuss the proposed 1982-83 school budget and anything else that pertains to the public educational system. The unanimous vote came after chairman Beverly Massie noted that all budget work sessions have to be open to the public, according to an opinion from the county’s commonwealth’s attorney. But Mr. Baumgardner s ruling is apparently not good enough for the representative from StonewallHawthorne. He suggested the board take the matter up with a specialist on school law. What Lane said he wants is a “very, very informal meeting...at one of our houses or something...just to kick the ball around,” maintaining that this type of private session would be beneficial to the board members, the county and the school system. According to Lane, he doesn't want to take any votes or make any decisions behind closed doors. “It’s not to withhold any information from the public," he claimed, over and over again. Far be it that the board wants to keep the public uninformed. No, as Lane explained it, he just wants the chance “to bring up any little strange ideas we have without it hitting the press and causing an uproar.” He noted that he doesn't necessarily want to confine the agenda of this private meeting to the proposed budget but rather to broaden the range to “anything relating to the schools...Just for fun so we can talk about anything about the schools. While it may be fun for Lane to discuss public issues behind closed doors, it won’t provide amusement for the tax payers whose dollars support that school system and whose children are supposed to receive an education there. Were talking about public schools and public business—not a private operation where decisions are made secretly by five individuals hidden away from public scrutiny. The budget is the single most important, single most controversial issue that the school board regularly addresses. The budget, of all things, should be hammered out in public. For years now, parents and teachers attending school board meetings have set two, three, even four hours during executive sessions, credibility strained to the breaking point. It’s been difficult to believe that the items discussed behind closed library doors have been items enumerated in Virginia’s FOI Act as proper for private discussion. We know beyond a doubt that at times the board has ranged far past the limits for private meetings, stretching the executive session umbrella further than the legislature ever intended it to reach. On Tuesday, after agreeing to consult with Stone on whether or not they can have their hoped for private meeting, the board spent from 9:55 to 1:15 in the by now standard executive session for personnel, only to announce that no action had been taken other than authorizing the superintendent to write a letter to the Virginia High School Athletic League, seeking a waiver on requirements for a track coach. In the open portion that preceeded, superintendent Robert Estabrook presented a part of his proposed 198283 budget which included a request for an additional administrator in the central office. Repeatedly, the board made reference to continuing discussion of the new post in executive session. And Mrs. Massie acknowledged that the issue had indeed come up in the closed session. Since when has the establishment of a new administrative position become personnel? We see it as a policy matter, an issue to be aired in public. The three hour closed meeting coupled with the board’s intention to find ways of having more of those private sessions is a step backward to the closed door wheeling and dealing of an earlier era. Virginia’s Freedom of Information laws are designed to keep the workings of government out in the sunshine of public scrutiny. Apparently, the school board just doesn’t feel comfortable before that same public. Tougher Laws Thousands of needless deaths on the state's highways have at least moved the people of Virginia to get behind tougher penalties for drunk drivers. Both the House and Senate Courts of Justice committees of the General Assembly approved bills last week that would strengthen drunken driving laws. The House version would not allow courts to dismiss charges against first offenders who successfully complete the Virginia Alcohol Safety Action Program IVASAP). Instead, the bill would require first offenders to be convicted before entering VASAP. They would be allowed to maintain their driving licenses but second offenders would lose their licenses for at least one year. The bill approved by the Senate would establish a mandatory 90-day license suspension for first offenders who enroll in VASAP. Second offenders would lose their licenses for a year. In addition, the Senate bill would increase fines and penalties for persons convicted of subsequent drunken driving offenses. Neither the House nor the Senate measure will inflict penalties commensurate with the tragedy and havoc created by drunks who get behind the wheel of a car. But they constitute a significant beginning to the end of the carnage on our highways. We urge Rappahannock citizens to write to our representatives. Delegate Raymond R. “Andy” Guest and State Senator Nathan Miller, in support of the legislative crackdown on drunken drivers. Send your letters to the General Assembly Building, Richmond, Va. 23219. Tyler Pleads Guilty (Continued from Page 1) son. Martin was convicted last year on five counts of arson arising from the 1980 Halloween burning of barns and other property belonging to the C. E. Johnson family of Sperryville. In a written opinion delivered last September, judge Robertson set aside four of the guilty verdicts, letting stand a single verdict of arson for the burning of the Johnson family’s personal property. Later, the grand jury returned a single indictment for the burning of four barns. Since the consolidated charge was lodged against Martin, the case has been repeatedly continued. In addition to overruling attorney Lee Albrecht’s double jeopardy argument, the judge denied a request for Martin's release on bond. Robertson set March 8 for sentencing the Spenryville man for arson involved in the burning of the Johnson’s personal property and also for a hearing on a change of venue request for the trial on the consolidated barn burning charges and a request for release on bond pending the second trial andor possible appeal of the first verdict. In a final case heard Thursday. Kenneth Ray Pullen was fined $400 and costs after pleading guilty in a misdemeanor appeal to charges of reckless driving (speeding 90 mph in a 55 mph zone). -Changeable Weather— — Rappahannock New* Photos/S. Latham Our Rappahannock Heritage BZA Advised That Setback Regulations Prevail By DAPHINK HUTCHINSON Rappahannock %«•»»•* Staff W ritcr The Commonwealth’s attorney met with Rappahannock’s Board of Zoning Appeals in an executive session Tuesday morning to discuss legal questions involved in a variance request from Wayne Jenkins. Jenkins, contract owner of a lot on Route 626 near Washington, is seeking a variance on side setback regulations which require a minimum of 50 feet side yard for single family residences on agriculturally zoned land. The lot he is seeking to buy from Warrenton speculator David Farrar is just 95 feet wide at its widest point. At a public hearing on the variance request held February 5, BZA chairman Lee Bird pointed out that side setback regulations in the zoning ordinance appear to conflict with a second provision that stipulates one single family residence may be erected on any lot recorded prior to the 1973 zoning ordinance adoption, provided health department criteria on septic fields and wells are met. On Tuesday. commonwealth’s attorney Douglas Baumgardner advised the BZA that side setback regulations take precedence. making a variance mandatory before a building permit can be issued for the lot in question. In order to obtain a variance, the zoning or-' dinance requires that the property owner show the property was "acquireci in good faith.” Before it is empowered to grant a variance, the BZA must also find that strict application of the ordinance would produce undue hardship. Baumgardner was asked on Tuesday to research both points and give the BZA a written opinion as to the meaning of "acquired in good faith” and "undue hardship.” Jenkins’ variance request will be taken up at the BZA's March 4 meeting if the opinions are available by that time. In a unanimous vote, the board members agreed to suspend issuance of a subpoena for David Farrar, owner of the property Jenkins is seeking to buy, until they get the two legal opinions from the commonwealth’s attorney and determine if Farrar's presence is necessary. ° Zoning administrator Dave Konick reported that he’d received a letter from Farrar, expressing willingness to attend the BZA's March 4 meeting. He also noted that Farrar maintains he was told by former zoning administrator F.van McNear that the lot in question was zoned residential, not agricultural. (Side setback for single a family residence in residential zone is 20 feet.) In addition, Konick said, Farrar purports to have a building permit granted by McNear that specifies the zoning on the lot as residential. Public Notice After reviewing provisions of Virginia's Freedom of Information Act (FOl), the BZA members agreed they will give notice to anyone who has requested continuing notification on B7.A meetings of all on-site inspections. In addition, they announced on-site inspections beginning at 9 ant. on Tuesday. March 2, of the foolowing applications to be considered at the March 4 BZA meeting: — Amissville United Methodist Church, seeking a special use permit for a private Christian day school limited to 30 students. —John and Joyce DeBergh. seeking a special use permit to build a second dwelling on a tract of land on Route b 22 containing approximately 182 acres. —joseph T. Atkins, seeking a special use permit to operate a used ear lot on Route 211 west of Sperryville, — Walter R. Payne, seeking a special use permit to operate a pool and game room on Route 211 east of Washington at a building site formerly known as Payne’s Garage.

This category has also been reduced in the proposed budget due to continued emphasis on moving children out of foster care. —Employment Services. Reduced through new Social Security restrictions on disabilities which have returned many disabled and partially disabled persons to the work force. Some funds for employment service are necessary. Reeve noted, because these people have few job seeking or job maintaining skills and closing of VEC offices across the state have left little chance of help for them in finding jobs. —Services to Specified Disabled Individuals. This provides training for deinstitutionalized persons who need training to live in a group or individual situation as well as counseling for their families. —companion services. Projecied expenditures are intended to maintain current clients at their present level of companion assistance and provides for the addition of two new cases. "Th _ i vice continues to be the one most sought after in this community.” said Reeve. “In addition, it is the most effective service we offer for purchase both in maintenance of quality of life and in tax dollars saved.” —Protective Services to Children. The purchase component covers both medical and counseling services for abused and-or neglected children and their families. * Administration Up Welfare administration costs show a 12 percent increase, up from $102,621 in 1981-82 to a projected $115,125 for the coming fiscal year. Of that amount. $93,287 comes from the state and $21,838 from the locality. Personal services involved in regular welfare programs, food stamps and fuel assistance are up five percent in the proposed budget, going from $73,895 to $78,534. Other operating expenses (retirement, utilities, insurance, travel, etc.) are also up by 14 percent from $31,798 to $36,391. "We're not asking for much of an increase (eight percent) over what was ac tually approved 1st year (for the total welfare budget)." Reeve maintained. "Due to the economy, there's a greater burden on services. Tethers are getting tight!" "We don't have many frills." agreed board chairman Aline Johnson, noting the impact of the economy on social service program. "People who don't have jobs have to get in the welfare lines. They have no choice." The vote was unanimous to approve the budget presented by Reeve. Proposed welfare expenditures for 1982-83 now go to the supervisors for approval. Some Income Is Excluded Some income received by a self-employed person after retirement may not affect benefit checks, Bruce A. Hundley, Social Security manager in Culpeper, said recently. The general rule is all selfemployment income received by a person in a year can affect his or her right to benefits. An important exception to this rule applies to income received after retirement which was earned before that time. Those affected by this exception include: — Farmers who sell carryover crops in a year after the year of retirement but were raised, harvested, and stored before then. —Self-employed life insurance agents who receive renewal commissions after retirement from policies sold before then. — Retired partners who receive a share of the part nership income after Retirement. —Silent partners who may never have worked in the partnership but who receive a share of the income based on their investment. —Other retired selfemployed people who receive self-employment income solely from the ownership of an income producing enterprise. The exception does not apply to any tax liability including Social Security selfemployment tax. The exception does apply to all tax years after 1977. More information about the annual earnings test, including this exception, can be obtained at the Culpeper Social Security office. The people there will be glad to answer any questions. The office is located at 522 Culpeper Shopping Center and the telephone number is 825-3500. The Little Fox r T

F unds Available For Rural VFDs Rural fire departments in Virginia may benefit from the Rural Community Fire Protection Program under Public Law 95-313. The $53,600 grant made available last year to the state permitted the purchase of necessary equipment for 174 rural fire departments. Since the Act went into effect in 1975. a total of $391,677 in matching grant money has been disbursed in 1.115 matching grants to 251 fire departments. This year $48,100 of grant money is available for allocation to qualifying rural departments. I he Virginia Division of Forestry is charged with the administration of the Virginia grant and will absorb the administrative costs to allow the full $48,100 to be available to the rural fire departments. The grant money is to be used to assist rural fire departments which service communities having populations of less than 10,000. Emphasis will be placed on assistance with training and the purchase of small equipment items. The funds are available on a matching basis. The Act provides the following guidelines for use in setting priorities for the funds: 1. Preference must be given to those fire departments that have applied for or have received loans from the Farmers Home Administration under Title II. 2. Preference shoul be given to the newer fire companies. In order to be eligible for a grant consideration, continued Custard, a fire department must be able to answer "yes” to the following questions: 1. Does the department service a community with a population of 10,000 or less? 2. Is the request for assistance in organizing, training or equipment? (Large equipment, such as a truck cannot be considered.) 3. Is the department able to match half or more of the grant requested? If the answers to the above questions are “yes”, the department may make application for a grant to the nearest District Office of the Virginia Division of Forestry.

Three oranges looking for work Our B-Series orange Kubota tractors range from 12 to 16 hp, and are available with two or four wheel drive. All have a hydraulic 3-point hitch, standard rear PTO, 6 forward speeds and 2 reverse, and a dependable diesel engine. And all of them can handle a wide variety of implements.

On April 30, the proposals accepted during the February meeting will again be considered and either accepted or rejected at that time. To compete for selection, Robinson said, all that is necessary is for those interested to send him a letter describing their personal backgrounds and how their selection might benefit them and other elderly citizens in their home area. The dealine for submitting applications is March 20th, and letters to Robinson should be addressed to him, c-o the U. S. House of Representatives, Washington, D. C. 20515. Applicants should be in good health, Robinson stressed, because participants are kept to a busy schedule on Capitol Hill, and must walk considerable distances to attend some meetings.

Brownie Troop 955 from Scrabble held a cooperative Valentine's Day party with the senior citizens at Meadowbrook Adult Home in Reva. The residents of the home made cupcakes and valentines for the girls and hung festive decorations for their part in the celebration. The Brownies brought heartshaped raisin bread and valentines, both homemade the day before at a special meeting. The little girls and the older folks exchanged goodies and cards but more importantly, they exchanged love, according to leader Mary Beth Ballard. The Brownies and their friends at Meadowbrook really enjoyed each other and plan to get together on a regular basis, she said. The residents of the home are eager to share experience and wisdom with the Brownies in a trade for a few songs, some hugs and a little nonsense, the leader added.

Some young children walk with their feet crossing towards the inside of their walk. This can be from a number of different causes The most common cause is an actual delay in the growth of the bones of the leg. As the lower leg bone (Libia) grows, it also has some twisting motion If this twisting motion is not synchronized well with the lower part of the leg, the foot can turn inwards. Most pediatricians will be correct when they say that it will usually correct itself. However, what happens is that the child either has a correction of the twisting motion, or he can flatten out his arch (which leads to numerous problems in later life) and appear to have the feet functioning in a straight fashion It is important to protect the foot from doing this. They are the only pair we have. A public service with the aim of promoting a better loot health environment.

Weaver, Kim Jacobson (Continued from Page 3) Rush River, Kim will be offering workshops in weaving, dying with vegetables and spinning. She learned to spin on the old fashioned drop spindle rather than the newer old fashioned spinning wheel. “After doing it for eight years, I like the drop spindle better. It’s more primitive but the same method is still used today in many cultures in Africa and South America. With a drop spindle, I can go from real thin to real thick on the same piece of yarn,” Kim said. She can spin about 60 yards of wool—the equivalent of two ounces—in 40 minutes. It takes from 204o 24 ounces of wool to make a medium-sized sweater. The spinning comes only after Kim has spent several hours on her knees, carding fleece straight off local sheep to align the fibers and remove twigs and tiny pieces of dirt. Then she colors the yarn in the subtle shades of her natural dyes: light yellow from tumeric, purple from cochineal (an insect), varying hues of greens and browns from the roots, leaves and flowers of dandelions, gold from onion skins. “The most consistent colors you get are browns and greens. To do blue, you must have indigo and that is expensive,” she noted. The colors are subtle. In Kim’s tapestries, the shades change from dark brown to lighter brown to tan to greenish tan to green to yellow green to yellow to gold so gradually that the material seems to flow almost as if it were liquid. After the wool has been dyed and dried, Kim can take a whole afternoon dressing her loom with a long warp and then another afternoon weaving. People complain that handwoven pieces are too expensive. But it’s a time consuming craft. When I figure out what I make an hour, it ends up being much lower than minimum wage. Customers just don’t understand the time that it takes,” Kim said. Buying her wool locally, coloring it and the cottons and linens with natural dyes picked in the woods of Rappahannock puts a part of the county in every piece of material that Kim Jacobsen creates. Waving her arm towards the Blue Ridge foothills outside her living room window, Kim explained that she steals many of the ideas for her tapestries and striations of color from those mountains. "It kind of makes a nice little circle,” she concluded. Amissville News Mrs. Corrie Miller of Colchester. Conn., arrived Monday to visit Mr. and Mrs. G. E. Doyle.

But it's been changed, at least for the sailors who were at Rappahannock County High School last week, to join the Navy and rock the waves. Port Authority, the Navy Band's entry in the rock music arena, blasted the rafters in the RCHS gym on Tuesday, playing favorites originally recorded by Kool and the Gang, the Kinks and Lynryd Skynyrd. Despite the professional look of Port Authority's equipment—enough amplifiers for a Rolling Stones concert at the Cap Center, horns, syntheziers, drums and electric guitars—the - initial response from the student-packed bleachers could best be termed polite. You could almost see the kids thinking "Rock music from short-haired guys this old and wearing uniforms?” But Port Authority’s version of “Girl, you've really got me going" convinced the kids that performers don't have to be under 30 to play their music. And the followup number, "Celebrate Good Times,” had the student body celebrating, clapping and swaying with a couple of extroverts even standing for a few quick steps, much to the delight of their peers. Groans greeted the announcement that Port Authority was going to do a something "slow and hauntingly beautiful”. The groans changed to shrieks of delight, however, when the band belted out hard driving blues instead, the lead singer Purcellvilte. Va 22132 Introduces the MODEL 10 ft. SYSTEM...

Choruses of "All Right!” greeted each new number and the applause plus the wall of sound from the band set new records for the gym, eclipsing even the din created by RCHS fans castigating the referees for a foul called on the Panthers with 30 seconds left in a basketball game and Rappahannock down by one. Port Authority works amost exclusively in support of Navy recruiting, striving to reflect the musical tastes of young Americans throughout the United States. They did just that at RCHS, picking for their final song "Free Bird”, the Lynryd Skynyrd hit that has to be the all-time favorite of probably half of the high school students in the county. Port Authority’s director, chief musician George Walker who also performs as vocalist, pianist and trombonist, is a Virginia boy who graduated from F. W. Cox High School in Virginia Beach and attended Old Dominion University in Norfolk. A vocal student in both high school and college, he was selected for Virginia All-State Band from 1966 to 1969 and for the All-State Chorus during his senior year of high school. In past years, the Navy's blue grass and swing bands have performed at RCHS and while the faculty gave its vote to those earlier groups, there was no doubt after Tuesday’s mini-concert that the students preferred Port Authority. RCHS Wins Opening Round Of Tournament By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock »w* Staff ^ ritcr That much sought after sports figure, the elusive “Mo Mentum," joined the RCHS lineup last week and stayed with the team for the first round of the Skyline District Tournament on Tuesday in Warren County where Rappahannock’s varsity blasted Luray, 62-41. Despite the lopsided score, the Panthers were flat offensively, according to coach Bob Edmondson. “We didn't play that well on offense the entire game but particularly in the first half,” he reported, noting that the Panthers connected on only four of ten shots from the foul line during the first half and just ten of 23 for the game. While it was an off night for the Panthers, however, the Bulldogs were even further from the mark. Rappahannock’s varsity had a 55 percent field goal percentage while Luray hit just 25 percent. “That was the big story. They had good shots but fortunately for us. they didn’t fall,” Edmondson said. Rappahannock's sticky defense was a major factor in Luray’s lackluster shooting performance. “We pressed them and that slowed down the tempo of the game. We didn’t have any-ups in the first half—we weren't running well—but we held them to just 11 points. That’s excellent!” the coach added. Rappahannock came into the second half with double the Bulldogs' tally, 22-11. "We were shooting better (nine out of 14 from the floor in the third quarter) and we were running better although Luray put pressure on us. We finally started making some lay-ups off the fast break," Edmondson reported. Entering the final period, however, Rappahannock’s offense again went flat, according to Edmondson, and Luray cut the Panthers’ lead to 12 after the quarter started with RCHS on top by 12, 42-25. "We traded buckets back and forth but we just couldn’t pull further in front," the coach said. With two minutes left. Edmondson went to his bench. Led by Eugene Grigsby with four, the substitutes reeled off eight unanswered points to stretch the margin to 21 at the ouzzer. High scorer for Rappahannock was Glenn Fletcher with 15 followed by Mike Leake with 13 and Robert Myers with 12. Last Friday in the final regular season game, the Panthers upset favored William Monroe. 70-63. The loss put the Dragons in a tie for first place in the district, forcing a play-off game with Stonewall Jackson this Monday, and left Rappahannock in sole possession of third place. RCHS got off to a slow start; down by five in the first quarter with Carl Frye benched after he picked up two quick fouls. "1 had no choice,” Edmondson explained. "I had to put Carl back in because we weren't playing well without him. But he didn't pick up any more fouls until the third quarter.” Frye sparked the Panthers to hold their own as the lead Fiber Workshops Wool Spinning • Feb. 26 and/or 27 12-4:30 $15.00 Vegetable Dyeing March 6 12-3:30 $12.00 with KIM JACOBSON at RUSH RIVER For information and registration call Rush River 675-3410 Washington, Va. K. Jacobson 937-5740 seesawed back and forth with RCHS ahead, 29-28, at the half. “It went back and forth in the third quarter too,” Edmondson noted. “No one had more than a three point lead.” Fletcher’s shot at the buzzer put the Panthers in front by just that margin at the end of the period, 49-46. "The big story of the night was Glenn’s 23 points,” Edmondson added of his sharpshooting guard. Another big story was also a couple of clutch shots by substitute Lee Anderson who came in for forward Mike Leake after Leake fouled out with the score tied and two minutes left in the game. "We shot and missed and Lee grabbed the offensive rebound and put it back up for a two point lead,” Edmondson said. At the other end of the court William Monroe shot and missed. Rappahannock got its fast break in gear with Robert Myers feeding to Anderson underneath for another two bucket and a four point RCHS lead. "Then foul shooting took over,” the coach said. Myers hit both ends of a one-andone with 29 seconds left. Fletcher added two from the charity stripe with 19 seconds and another two with just three seconds remaining to ice the contest for the Panthers. Leake and Frye followed Fletcher into double figures with 15 points apiece. i— || H & R BLOCK Rappahannock News Building Tuesday 1 to 5 Friday 9 to 7 Saturday 9 to 1 Also by appointment Call Office 675-3614 Evenings 675-3343 A Low-Cost Water Heater Insulation Kit Can Save You Up To $20 A Year A simple water heater insulation kit which saves you both energy and money on your electric water heater is a good investment. Installing one of these kits is quick and easy . . . and it can pay for itself in as little as a year’s time. What’s In A Water Heater Insulation Kit? Basically, a water heater insulation kit consists of precut insulation to fit around the outside and top of your electric water heater. It also includes tape to hold the insulation in place and, of course, the directions for installation. How Do These Kits Work? Just as a blanket or coat helps maintain your body temperature, a water heater protected by additional layers of insulation maintains heated water temperatures better and longer. Thus, it requires less energy to keep the water at the desired heating level. Since hot water is the second largest energy user in the average home (heating is the largest), the savings you realize can be substantial ... up to $20 per year in an average household. Where Can I Buy A Kit? During the past few years, these kits have become very popular with many building supply, department and discount stores now selling them. Frequently you’ll see them advertised on sale.. However, the cheapest kit is not necessarily as effective as a more expensive one. A good kit should contain insulation that’s at least IV* to 2 inches thick. A number of manufacturers are now producing these kits and prices are currently running between $10 and $20. IMPORTANT These kits are not installed in the same manner on both electric and gas water heaters. Be sure to follow directions based on the type of water heater you have.

Residential Standards Specific standards on residential development set out in the rough draft revisions require that proposed development must be compatible with the county's ability to provide public facilities and services, “particularly schools, parks and recreational facilities, libraries and other governmental services.” Under the proposed revisions, impact of residential development will be deemed excessive if it requires ‘‘unplanned expenditures for services including facility expansion that would exceed tive percent of the present or pinned expenditure for the particular service,” unless it can be shown that anticipated county revenue increase from the development will accrue in an amount and in a time frame that will enable the county to finance the required facility expansion. The proposed ordinance revisions specify that rightsof-way serving proposed residential developments must be a minimum of 50 feet wide if traffic count plus the impact of the proposed development (using seven trips per dwelling per day) exceeds 50 vehicles per day. For traffic counts over 150 vehicles per day, roads must be paved to a minimum width of 16 feet. If the traffic count tops 300 vehicles per day, then roads serving the development must meet all state specificatipns. The draft revisions also stipulate that proposed residential development must not result in the loss or degradation of natural resources, including prime agricultural and forestal lands; environmentally sensitive areas; prominent or unusual geologic features or areas critical to the existence of important types of flora and fauna. In addition, the revisions require that impact of residential development on scenic and historic resources and agricultural operations I also be taken into account and sets standards for evaluating impact in all cases. Finally, the draft revisions submitted by McNear last Wednesday set standards for home occupations, small contracting businesses, cottage industries, community educational and institutional uses, residential and medical care facilities and other public and quasipublic uses. McNear indicated that he will have the remaining draft chapters of proposed zoning ordinance revisions (including sections on accessory uses, private streets, parking, definitions and administration) ready for the commissioners by their March or April meeting. He noted that the commission has agreed to use existing tax maps as the basis for new zoning maps which must be adopted along with the revised zoning ordinance. Once completed, an official copy of the zoning map will be kept in the clerk’s office and a working copy in the zoning office. FAUQUIER LIVESTOCK EXCHANGE iNCO«*Q«ATEO REGULAR SALES Every Tues.

Our bodies are merely anchors to hold our souls on earth.” AS theory not only supports reincarnation but holds that individuals consciously choose a life-time plan and purpose before they are reborn, including who their parents will be and whether they will go through the next life as male or female, according to Masters. Masters stressed that AS is not an esoteric cult that seeks to brainwash its followers.
