33rd YEAR, NO. 18 USPS 45558C 12 Pages Since 1877 THURSDAY, MAY 6,1982 Phone 673-3349 20' $72,000 From Schools Cuts Bring ’82-’83 Rate Down To 33 Gents By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock >»*w« Staff Writer After tour hours of wrangling over the proposed 1982-83 budget on Monday morning, the Rappahannock supervisors whittled $72,000 from school expenditures and agreed to draw approximately $60,000 more from county surplus to bring the tax rate for next year down to 33 cents per $100 of fair market value assessment. The 33 cent rate, which will be advertised with a budget synopsis for public hearing on June 7, represents a three percent increase over the current levy. Despite reductions n proposed expenditures. , ,e limited increase would not have been possible without the use of approximately $200,000 in surplus, the equivalent of over nine cents on the rate. (The present rate is $5.30 but this was applied on old discounted appraisals. For comparison, the rate necessary to support the current budget would have been 32 cents if fair market value assessments had been effective in 1981-82.) Starting with a total proposed budget of $3,437,286 and a 40 cent tax rate, the supervisors cut $72,000 from the school budget, leaving the decision on where to absorb the reduction with the school board. They suggested, however, that employees be given a maximum of six percent in pay raises (rather than the 8.5 percent hike endorsed by the school board). In addition, they recommended elimination of the proposed new position for director of special services. Early Work Session The supervisors began their budget work session at 8 a.m. and by 11 a.m., they had managed to reduce proposed expenditures for 1982-83 by just $11,050. ‘‘The total effect of this morning's efforts has been to cut the tax rate by one-half cent,” noted accountant Wally Cox. (With new 100 percent fair market value assessments bringing county property values up to $200,000,000, one cent on the rate generates $21,000 in revenue.) “Right now, it's down to a trade-off—school expenses and tax rate," the accountant said. In reviewing proposed appropriations for other county departments, the supervisors discovered an error in sheriff W. A. Buntin’s budget where $31,000 in expected reimbursement from the state for travel was listed as an expenditure. But that $31,000 reduction was balanced in part by additions of (1) $860 for Rappahannock’s share of the operating expenses for circuit court judge Shore Robertson’s office in Fauquier, (2) Benefit Dinner A benefit dinner, sponsored by the Sperryville Ladies Auxiliary, will be served Saturday, May 8, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. in the Sperryville fire hall. The menu includes turkey and trimmings, meat loaf, limas, sweet potatoes, parsley potatoes, baked apples, macaroni salad, congealed salads, hot rolls, butter, homemade desserts and choice of coffee or tea. All this sumptuous food will be $5.00 for adults and $3.00 for children (under twelve) and tickets may be purchased at the door. Carry-out orders will be from 4:30 to 5:30 only. $2,000 for unemployment compensation (3) $1,005 for the Rappahannock-Rapidan Emergency Services Council and (4) $1,585 in the sheriffs budget to cover substitution of three correctional officers for the four dispatchers previously sought. In addition, Cox noted a decrease on the revenue side of the ledger of $29,000 for the sheriff s office expenses and an increase in state reimbursement of $14,500 for operation of that department’s county owned cars. Cuts Expected Cox indicated that further changes in the budget total will come once the State Compensation Board acts on salary and personnel requests. Constitutional officers (commissioner of revenue, treasurer, sheriff and commonwealth’s attorney) are slated to get ten percent increases in the preliminary budget. But since state employees are expected to get pay hikes ‘of 4.5 percent in 1982-83, the Compensation Board will probably hold raises to that same level, according to Cox. The Compensation Board pays 50 percent of salary for the commissioner of revenue and treasurer and all salary for the commonwealth’s attorney, sheriff, deputies, correctional officers, police dispatchers and sheriff’s office secretary. Sheriff Buntin has asked the compensation Board to authorize two additional deputies and a full-time secretary. He told the supervisors on Monday that he feels “pretty certain" the three new positions will be approved. Regarding the correctional officers (who will also handle a new county-wide dispatch system), Buntin said he’s asked that one be authorized as of July 1 with the remaining two to be hired (Continued on Page 9) — Rappahannock Now.

Hutrhin*on BRIE CALENDRELLA came with her dad Mark to last Sunday’s open house at Blackwater Homestead along with about 200 other county residents who toured the three-family home, an innovative approach to cooperative care in old age. While Brie may not have understood the solar concepts incorporated in the design of the house, she was all smiles at the prospects of climbing on the wood pile. Cannon Supported For School Board Residents of StonewallHawthorne District are seeking a change in their representation on the county school board. - On Monday, the supervisors received a petition with 180 signatures supporting the appointment of Jimmy Cannon to the seat now held by Nelson Lane. Lane’s term expires June 30, 1982. In presenting the petitions, Sharon Kilpatrick reported that the signatures had been collected in less than a week. She described Cannon as a long time resident of the county familiar with the school system “who will be responsive to the desires of many citizens.” Noting that Lane’s term ends in two months, she asked the supervisors when they plan to act on the vacancy. “1 want to wait until our July meeting," replied H. B. Wood, supervisor from Stonewall-Hawthorne. Asked by school board member Robert Eastham for a reading of applicable law, commonwealth’s attorney Douglas Baumgardner advised the supervisors that they must act to fill the seat prior to the date Lane’s term expires. "So we couldn’t do it at the July meeting,” Wood noted. He added that the supervisors will announce at their June 7 meeting when they will act on the school board appointment. (The supervisors have a special meeting for adoption of the 1982-83 budget set for June 14. No other meetings are scheduled prior to the June 30 deadline for filling the vacancy.) Town Returns Council To Office Mayor Newbill Miller and all six of the Washington town council members were returned to office in their third consecutive term as a group in Tuesday’s elections. Forty of the eligible 131 registered voters in the town turned out to vote in the uncontested race. Although most town elections include at least one vote for Donald Duck or Mickey Mouse, this year’s ballot did not have a single write-in candidate, silly or serious. Besides Mayor Miller, town officials returning to office are Bradford Fisher as Treasurer; Dorothy Clater, Clarence E. “Skippy" Giles. Jr., Dorothy B. Hawkins, Charles Jenkins, and Taylor Updike as council members. Most popular in the balloting was Giles, who received forty votes out of the forty ballots cast. Presiding over the town elections was a newlyappointed electoral board, composed of Georgt H. Davis, Jr. of Washington, Chairman; Pearl Clarke of Amissville, Vice-Chairman; and Chris Parrish of Viewtown, Secretary. Zoning Ordinance Change Proposed The Rappahannock Supervisors on Monday received a request for a zoning ordinance amendment to allow archery, skeet, trap and target shooting ranges in an agricultural zone by special use permit. The proposed amendment was presented by Washington attorney Peter Luke on behalf of Robert and Ruth Bowers who own and operate Blue Ridge Guns in Amissville. The amendment specifies that a range be located a minimum of 100 yards from any public road, residence or business (with the property owner’s consent required in writing) and no closer than 150 feet from adjoining property lines unless the adjoining landowner agrees in writing to a lesser distance. It restricts use of a range to between 9 a.m. and 5 o.m. and requires the owner or his agent to be present at all times the range is in operation. Further, the amendment stipulates that there will be no consumption of alcoholic (Continued on Page 3) County Gets Help In Finding Jail Funds John Capelle, executive director of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District Commission, has joined the Rappahannock supervisors in their search for outside funds to defray the cost of upgrading the county’s 24hour lock-up to meet minimum jail standards. The scramble for jail funds began in March when Fauquier Sheriff Luther Cox announced that his jail would no longer accept Rappahannock's prisoners. Since then, Rappahannock sheriff W. A. Buntin has canvassed correctional facilities within reasonable driving distance and found that only Charlottesville and Shenandoah jails have empty beds on any kind of a regular basis. Department of Corrections officials, after inspecting the county's 24-hour lock-up facilities last month, indicated that Rappahannocks former jail can be renovated to meet minimum state standards for a “ball park” estimate of $150,000. Faced with round-trips of over 100 miles for transporting prisoners IF space is available elsewhere, the supervisors have tentatively agreed to renovate the old Rappahannock jail but they want help in financing. Capelle told the board on Monday that $450,000 for jail construction is left in the state budget for the current biennium (which ends June 30). However, most of that amount has already been allocated to other projects. In addition, he said, the present reimbursement schedule allows only $25,000 for a local project. Amendments passed by the General Assembly which become effective July 1 raise that amount to $100,000 not to exceed half the cost of the project, Capelle noted. But the legislature at the same time allocated only $200,000 for 1982-84 for jail construction and renovation and that amount is already earmarked for a specific project, he said. Capelle also told the supervisors that the state won’t hand over any money until work is completed "and you pass a final inspection. Then and only then will you get funding." Despite all this, he advised the supervisors to proceed with an application for state funds. Capelle said he’d discussed Rappahannock’s dilemma with officials in the state’s Division of Justice and Criminal Planning. They suggested asking Delegate Raymond R. “Andy” Guest, the county’s representative in the General Assembly, to submit a bill for reimbursement in the next legislative session. Capelle noted that Department of Corrections personnel had promised to support the effort as well. "So you do have a chance of getting 50 percent reimbursement up to $100,000,” he told the supervisors. Capelle added that he’d requested reimbursement application forms from the Department of Corrections and would forward copies on to Rappahannock. "We’re ready to help with the paper work and assist you in any way we can." Capelle said, winning a unanimous vote from the supervisors authorizing the planning district staff to proceed. Turned Down Twice Earlier in the meeting, sheriff Buntin reported that he’d called Fauquier twice last week with requests to house prisoners and had been turned down both times. One individual had been arrested for public drunkeness and was sent home with a friend when no jail space could be found. The second had been arrested for probation violation. Buntin said that the probation officer went before the judge who agreed to release the prisoner on a personal recognizance bond. "We’ve just been lucky but it's not going to last...Sooner or later, we're going to have to lock' somebody up," the sheriff warned. Supervisor Charles Estes asked if it would be possible to get a temporary permit from the Department of Corrections to reopen the old jail here as an interrum measure until renovation can be completed. Buntin said he'd raised that possibility and had been told that if the current lock(Continued on Page 9) Beauty Pageant The Sperryville Rescue Squad is sponsoring a Miss Rappahannock beauty pageant on Friday, May 14, at 8 p.m. in the auditorium of the local elementary school.

I Sewer, Water Projects Get Top Grant Priority The county's efforts to secure block grant money for Sperryville’s sewer system got a boost last Thursday as the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District Commission's special committee sn establishing regional priorities gave top ranking to mandated sewage facilities. Relationship to regional priorities is one of the components in Virginia’s weighting system for Community Development Block Grant selection. General improvements to water supply, the category jnder which the town of Washington plans to seek slock grant money for work sn its public water system, was also ranked in the top priority group along with ndustrial site development >nd central business district revitalization. Projects applying for $11 million in uncommited funds available statewide in the current fiscal year will be evaluated on a weighting system with 100 points maximum. Community relative need comprises 34 percent, broken down into components for adjusted gross income (ten percent), population change (eight percent), unemployment (eight percent) and tax effort versus ability index (eight percent). Sperryville’s application, expected to be for approximately $500,000, will be judged in the relative need category on the basis of county-wide statistics while Washington’s request for grant money will be measured against income, population and unemployment data for the incorporated town. Indicators of grant impact on community improvement make up the remaining 66 points in the weighting system. Criteria include relationship to state priorities (eight percent), relationship to regional priorities (eight percent) and impact on local and program objectives (50 percent). Each eligible jurisdiction in the planning district (five counties and eight incorporated towns) was requested to send representatives to last Thursday’s meeting in Culjjeper. Supervisor Charles Estes and Washington's council treasurer Brad Fisher were there officially from the county and the town and Donald Gore unofficially from jihe Rappahannock Water and Sewer Authority. The recommendations from the special committee will be acted on by the Planning District Commission at its May 27 meeting. "We're trying to second guess what the state's going to do." said the commission's executive director John Capelle. adding that regional priorities should reflect state priorities in order to give local projects a shot at getting the lb points possible for matching both categories. Capelle reported that block grant application forms are expected to be sent out in mid-June with workshops on filling out the applications tentatively set for mid-July. Deadline for submitting applications to Richmond is September 5 and the Governor is expected to announce grant awards—up to $"00,000 per project—in late September.

They were very, very narrow and they were terribly dusty in the sum mertime and horses would be knee-deep in mud in the winter time. There was a law that every rrtan eighteen or over in the family must give 30 days of his time to building the roads or keeping them up—that's the way roads were first made. So it a hole came on a road, and if it was near a man's house, he was supposed to give the time to haul rock to fill it up and make it passable. Now if he was back further from the road he had to come and help along the front. ONE OF THE FIRST women locally to dare to ride a horse astride, Anne Keyser used that method of transportation to commute to and from school when she was a young teacher in Rappahannock County.

Many a person was stranded at different times due to a road that was impassable. and everyone was welcome. Sometimes you would have houses filled up with people waiting for the rivers to run down. Of course, in the winter time you crossed on the ice." Getting Around “Everyone rode horseback. The women rode side-saddle - they wouldn't dare ride astride. And I think I was one of the first women to ride astride, very much against the rules. 1 rode ten miles to school - five miles up and five miles back. But f was one of the blessed ones. Others had to walk, but we had horses. In fact, we had two horses, so if one got sick I could use the other one. "Now if the roads got too impassable, father made me ride a mule. That was one thing I did hate to do - ride a mule to school. Everybody laughed at me. "Why did I ride a mule? Because a mule could get his foot out of the mud quicker than a horse. A horse would get mired in the mud and there he would stay until he felt like he wanted to go. But a mule would always go. "1 never missed a day of school for several years until the flu epidemic came along and I missed several days due to flu." Doctorin’ In The Mountains "Most of the pioneer people were their own doctors. They grew herbs of all descriptions and when anybody was sick and if they couldn’t take care of themselves - that’s when they called the doctor. Two of the main medicines they kept on hand were paregoric - for the children when thev cried; and calomel - which had to be taken twice a year to clear the system out. You know the liver would be always acting up so calomel had to be kept on hand. Nowadays it's considered one of the worst things in the world to take. "Now. every old place - and 1 have them at home - had all kinds of (lowers and plants that you now pay an outrageous price for. These plants were grown and used as medicine in a poultice. Everybody had some kind of carbuncles, or boils, so they’d make poultices out of the root of the August lily. That's a sweet lily that blooms in August. It has great big leaves on it. Some are purple and some are white. They're very, very sweet and you would dig up the roots and keep them on hand. Then if you had a boil you’d make a poultice out of the root. "They had sage, of course, that they used for seasoning, and they had basil and thyme and horehound for colds, and one wonderful thing for a cold was an onion poultice. "Every child had to wear a sack around his neck. 1 was one who didn't have to wear one - my mother didn’t believe in it. In the sack was asfetida, (horrible to smell) and that was to keep from catching diseases. "If a child lived through childhood, he stood a pretty good chance of living to lie old. Most children died of diptheria. measles, or typhoid fever. “They didn't have typhoid much in the winter, just in \\ ATTENTION// SPECIAL SALE FREE 4X SCOPE. W/PURCHASE OF NEW CENTERFIRE RIFLE. BLUE RIDGE GUNS RT. 211 AMISSVILLE OPEN 9AM TO 7PM 7 DAYS A WEEK the summer time. Doctors couldn’t account for it: why just in the summer? But the reason why was that everyone filled their ice houses and they would cut ice off the river and put it in ice houses and in the summer they'd put the ice in the water and everyone drank from a common dipper. The privies were right along the hanks of the river and naturally the waste went into the river. "Many, many people died. 1 knew one family with three children who all died at the same time with diptheria. Doctors then encouraged women to have big families. They knew- that a lot of the children would die anyway. So whenever old Dr. Smith - a wonderful old doctor - went to visit a family that had lost a child, he'd say: now the best thing to do is have another one right away. You expect some of them to die. "One nice thing about pioneer life was that no one lived alone. If anyone had trouble, there was someone to help them all the time. If anybody was sick, regardless of w hat they had - they would sit up all night with them. 1 don't know why but they would - so if something happened they'd be ready to go for a doctor or give first aid." Granny’s Toothbrush "Every house had althea. Althea was called Rose of Charon, now hibiscus. Maybe you don't know, but I do: they used the althea for toothbrushes. They'd send you out to get grandmother a toothpick. No one was supposed to see you pick your teeth, but she'd do it just the same and she'd chew the end of it to make a little brush and it did a perfectly wonderful job of cleaning teeth. That's all they had. They didn't have any other kind." Early Crops "When the first people came here they naturally tried the crop they grew in the lowlands, the sandy lands: tobacco. We tried tobacco here but it was not very profitable. The land was text strong and the tobacco w as too strong. "On the Richmond road - it's Route 729 now. but it was actually a road that led to Richmond - people carried tobacco first in great big hogsheads to Falmouth. The hogsheads were wrapped w ith hoops and had hickory wheels and an axle was put through the barrels. Oxen would pull the hogsheads tilled with packed tobacco all the wav to Falmouth and down the road. When the wheels would wear out they had spare wheels they carried along with them. These roads were called "rolling roads." "They went down with a load of tobacco and came back w ith a load of fish and they salted the fish down and had them for the whole winter." Old Mills "The Indians taught us how to grow corn and corn became the chief crop. Corn was fed to everything tin the place, and that required mills. We had seven mills from upper Washington down to Rock Mills. "Corn was fed to the people - cracked corn, hominy made from Hint com; it was fed to the fowls; to the hogs; to the cattle everything. The main towns then were: Washington. Sperrvville. Flint Hill. Amissville, Woodville, Gaines' Cross Road, and Sandy Hook. "For the dogs and cats, and fowls that 's all we had - ground meal and milk. They didn't have dog food or cat food in those days. "The mill was built very sturdily on the side of the river and naturally all of them were built along the same style as you see down here (in Washington). "They (the mills) went by the name of the person who ran the mill. The mill that I went to was called Sheep Estes' mill. And I would take the corn bv there in the morning and he'd grind it and I'd pick it up in the afternoon. No one had any money and the miller would take ('lit a gallon of meal or cracked corn or hominy to pay for the grinding. "The old gentleman (Sheep Estes) didn’t have but one arm but he could divide the meal just so perfectly and put it on the back of my saddle. And there wouldn't be a teaspoonful difference - I think. It would never fall off a saddle. And I could ride home just as fast as 1 wanted to or as slow as 1 wanted to and it would never fall off." Judd and Son "At Rock Mills they had a big mill run by a man name of Judd and his son. They must have had a regular downpour or cloudburst like we had at Sperryville a couple of years ago because all of a sudden the water began to rise and it started dow n the stream towards the mill and began getting higher and higher all the time and the man said: ‘Son. this mill is going to wash away if we don't do something about it. And there’s not a thing in the world we can do about it." He said. "You'll just have to pray, son." ' "The boy said: ‘Well I’ve never prayed.’ "The man said: 'Well, I’ve never prayed either but you get down on your knees and I’ll get down on my knees and we'll clasp our hands and close our eyes and when I finish you say, ’Amen', which .means, ’1 stand by what you say!' "So the old man knelt down and closed his eyes and said: ‘O. God. I see the water rising and gitting higher and higher and I can't do nothing about it. Now, I ain't never axed you for nothing before and I won't ax you for no favors again if you just won't let my mill wash away.' "Well, the mill w a s h ed away, and if you ever go over there you can see the mill wheel still in the bank. It must have happened to lots of them because there are very few. mills standing today." Mountain Families "Now the people who lived in the mountains were mostly squatters. They were the people who came in after the pioneers. Many of them had been indentured servants. They settled in the mountains way up at the top and they just remained there. They built a home, after clearing a little land, and nobody drove them away and they were perfectly happy to live there. They didn't improve their homes that much. "Now. I had the pleasure of going into those homes. It was a law - not a law. but a school law - that every teacher had to visit in the home of every student at least once. It was a good thing, I think, because you saw what they had to deal with. "We visited in these homes usually in groups. The people in th mountains made moonshine - they had to make moonshine to pay their taxes. When we went to visit we visited in lots of three. "There was usually one room and a shed room. No matter when you'd come, there would be someone there and they'd invite you in. They were always so surprised to see you. If you didn't come to tell them their child had done something wrong they’d be perfectly satisfied. "One thing that always surprised me: that one room was immaculate. The furniture was homemade of cherry or walnut. The kitchen was a lean-to. When you left they always gave you a bouquet - there were always flowers in the mountains.

Fearful of strangers, some of the children needed special training to overcome the constant terror of "revenoors" that haunted them. "Why the houses were so clean - I'll never understand. There were no closets hut there were cupboards. And they must have kept the overflow in the sheds. Also, they just didn't have that many things to keep up with. "These were the poorer people in the mountains - the ones who couldn't afford to buy land. The mountain land was free - it wasn't considered anything at all. "1 went to one home that had two stories - it was built over a spring and the downstairs was the spring house. The baby was kept downstairs and of course that was a perfect place for the baby - it was nice and cool and the sound of running water coming from the spring kept him calm. "The first fruit stands that were along here were because of the mountain children. They would come down at berrv time with their buckets and just stand there and the people who came along would be glad enough for fresh strawberries or blackberries - any kind of berry. "In the fall they had chestnuts and they sold like hotcakes. They even had little bunches of flowers - wildflowers. I know the anemone was one of the ones they always could sell. "They (the mountain • people) were good parents. They stood behind the teachers and whatever the teacher said was law." Good Times "The people down in the valley - we had lots of fun even then. We had tournaments. In case you don't know, this was the same as jousting, and this section was known for good horses and good riders. They would put up poles a certain distance apart and put up crossbars with a wire and a hook hanging down. The man would ride and stick his lance through that and he’d get ten on his lance (if he could). The man who got the most became the knight of the court and he could choose the queen of the court. He chose the girl he thought the most of. The man next to him chose a princess, too, and so on down, but the one chosen by the man who speared the most hooks got to wear a crown and there was a big dance that night. "Now in the winter we had skating parties and big fires and we roasted marshmallows. We had sledding in back of the courthouse. A lot of sledding was done from Peter Kramer's shed down to the old post office. That was a wonderful place because no one traveled that way. They always went by the courthouse." Court Day “Court day was a big day in the county when everyone came down out of the mountains and brought things to sell. That's where everybody met. That is, that's where the men met. No woman was seen on the streets during court day. Court day was here in Continued next week. DEPENDABLE SERVICE [J. F.

RAA C Elects Board Of Directors / fter five months of work, the effort to establish an arts center in Rappahannock now has a name and a board of directors. The slate of prospective board members presented by a nominating committee won unanimous endorsement from the audience at Monday night’s meeting in the courthouse. “We sought people who could accept a challenge...who have successfully ■ worked with others,” said committee chairman Mitzie Young. The proposed board represents a balance of the community including men and women, the young and not-so-young, landowners from every area of the county, natives and relative newcomers, but all people with organizational skills who are interested in the arts and are receptive to new ideas, she said.

It forbids creditors from discriminating against applicants for loans on the basis of sex or marital status. Its goal is not to guarantee credit to everyone (if you’re a bad credit risk, your loan can still be refused) but your access to credit is now based solely on your ability to pay. The law does not prohibit a creditor from knowing your marital status; in some cases he has to know it to protect his rights as a creditor, in liens and title transfers, for instance. The law aims at such things as making sure a woman’s creditworthiness is judged on the same basis as a man’s and that husband and ION OUTLAWED wife joint credit accounts will provide each of them with an independent credit history. The new law will also prohibit practices that would make married persons more creditworthy than unmarried or separated persons, require credit application to reveal information about childbearing plans; exclude alimony and childsupport payments in evaluating cred it - worthiness. »+•♦»+ If there is anything we can do to help you in the field of real estate, please phone or drop in at EILEEN M.

Loyalty Necessary Since the inception of the effort to establish a center of some sort, the group has been split by internal bickering, noted Frank •Reynolds. Those involved have pulled in different directions—some towards an art center, others towards a community center. “It is absolutely imperative that each member of the board of directors, before they agree to serve, pledge their loyalty..We must operate for the good of this organization first and once we make a corporate decision, we must support that decision, even if we disagree with it,” Reynolds emphasized. Lee Bird, who has served as chairman during the groups organizational meetings, agreed. “All of the directors are trustees,” he said, with a duty to support the organization and its purpose. As set out in a statement drawn up several months ago, the aims of the committee to establish an arts center covered: —sponsoring programs related to the performing, cinematic and fine arts, —encouraging an artsskills exchange with classes and workshops in such areas as photography, pottery, music and other educational arts and crafts disciplines, —promoting activities relating to historical research, language arts and other educational and cultural fields, — pooling community resources in an effort to compliment existing educational resources for youth as well as adults in the area. —establishing a facility to accommodate activities and entertainments outlined above. "That purpose can change as conditions change but it must be in an orderly way as provided for in the by-laws," Bird said. The original purpose of the group was pin-pointed by Joe Bonsignore in remarks he made as he and the other board members were introduced: "We believe that arts and the development of taste through the arts is absolutely essential...Talent and potential are everywhere. We’d like to help promote the talent in Rappahannock and bring in talent from the outside for the people here to enjoy." The next meeting of the directors of the Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community will be Monday, May 17, at 7:30 p.m. in the Washington Baptist Church. At that time, the group will elect officers and formally adopt a statement of purpose. In addition, a report on incorporation efforts is scheduled. The nominating committee was also instructed to submit nominees for an advisory council-resource bank with suggestions on how this second organizational layer can interact with the board of directors.

The United States Congress has said so in a joint resolution signed by President Reagan, that cites nurses' "significant contributions" and calls for "appropriate programs, ceremonies and activities." The board of directors of the American Nurses’ Association has voted to observe the date under the designation of NATIONAL NURSES' DAY. Many people have attempted to establish such a day, including banker Edwin Scanlan, a volunteer at Riverside Hospital in Red Bank, N.J. As an admirer of nurses' "compassion and dedication", he felt there should be such a day. Last year the cause was taken up by Carol Lewis, an assistant administrator of Albuquerque's Lovelace Medical Center, who enlisted the New Mexico Nurses' Association and Society of Nursing Administrators. They prevailed upon New Mexico Rep. Manuel Lujan. Jr. to introduce the resolution, which collected 224 cosponsors in its progress through Congress.

No Complaints At Road Hearing In what had to be a first for Rappahannock, not a single complaint about the conditions of the county's secondary roads was voiced at the annual road hearing held by the supervisors and resident engineer Don Askew on Monday. Askew started out on a positive note, reporting that the General Assembly’s passage of a franchise sales tax on gasoline will increase Rappahannock's 1982-83 allotment for secondary roads by $146,000 over the current year. The county is slated to get $340,000 in the coming fiscal year, a jump that will bring funding back up to 1980-81 levels after this year's drop to $194,000. “We're cautiously optimistic that we will have added flexibility (with the extra money)," Askew said. He noted that funds will go primarily towards completing projects already scheduled in the six-year road plan but delayed by last year’s cutback in allocations. In the past, the county courtroom has been packed for the annual road hearing with citizens complaining about pot holes, blind curves, dust problems, flooding, stopped-up drainage ditches and gravel roads they felt should be paved. The complainers were all absent Monday and as the resident engineer asked each supervisor for comment, he got only favorable remarks. "We’re very pleased with the job you’re doing in Tiger Valley (on Route 626),’’ said supervisor Clarence Baldwin, asking if the improvement project will be finished this year. Route 626 will be paved to Peyton Farms road. Askew replied, noting that traffic counts don’t justify paving beyond that point. He reported that in Jackson District, $100,000 has been slated for resurfacing a three mile section of Route 729 this year with the balance of the road to Laurel Mills scheduled for resurfacing the following year. Replying to supervisor H. B. Wood's questions on two roads in StonewallHawthorne District, Askew said the highway department anticipated resolving right-ofway acquisition on Route 621 to clear the way for im provement work there to begin soon. The six-year plan also includes funds for upgrading Route 626 in the area of the county’s dump site over the next three to four years, he said. If right-of-way can be secured, the road to the Aileen Plant in Wakefield District will be improved to provide better site distance, the resident engineer reported. He noted that the current six-year plan doesn’t call for any improvements to Route 647 but pledged to keep up maintenance on the narrow gravel road. The revised six-year plan tor secondary roads approved following Monday's public hearing specifies the following projects: Strawberry F ete Strawberries, music, dancing, games and crafts will be featured at Piedmont Episcopal Parish’s seventh annual Delaplane Strawberry Festival Sunday, May 30, from 1 to 5 in the meadow and on the streets of Delaplane.

Aud.it Bureau of Circulation Thursday, May 6,1982 New Approach The Rappahannock supervisors deserve congratulations for their new style of action. In the past, the board has been a study in procrastination. When the State Fire Marshal cited the courthouse for fire code violations, it took the supervisors three years to get around to putting up a fire escape exit from the second floor. Rappahannock was the last county in Virginia to provide its sheriff's department county-owned cars in place of paying mileage to law enforcement officers for driving their own vehicles on police business. For years, the supervisors ignored the State Code’s requirement for a building inspector, instituting an inspection program only after threats of legal action by the Attorney General’s office. Rappahannock waited until the last minute to start work on a comprehensive plan, actually adopted one after the state’s deadline for action. Construction of a new clerk’s office began only after repeated warnings from judges that additional space was an absolute necessity. Based on these; past patterns, we expected postponement of action on providing jail space in the county until the circuit court actually filed legal papers ordering construction. But the Rappahannock supervisors have a new approach, one of action rather than reaction. Immediately following the announcement from neighboring sheriff Luther Cox that Fauquier Jail would no longer accept Rappahannock’s prisoners, the supervisors started the ball rolling on upgrading the lock-up here to state standards for regular jails. They have begun despite current , economic conditions which have stretched local revenue resources to the breaking point. They have begun despite estimates from the Department of Corrections that renovation may cost as much as $150,000. They have begun with the hope of state reimbursement but with no guarantee that the money will be forthcoming. A lot of the credit goes to supervisor Charles Estes. He made a few critical points when the board toured the lockup facility a few weeks ago. Recalling his term as former sheriff of Rappahannock, Estes pointed out that husbands and wives are frequently arrested and incarcerated as the result of marital spats when a disgruntled spouse acts out his or her anger by swearing out a warrant. The fight often blows over in a day or two and charges are dropped but in the meantime, with no jail space available locally, the prisoner has been carted off to an empty cell 60 miles over the mountain in Shenandoah, hours away from familv, friends and legal counsel. “Thai s not fair,” Estes told his fellow board members. In addition, he noted that persons are sometimes charged with crimes for which they are subsequently found innocent. These people deserve better than a jail cell in a strange county miles and miles from home, he maintained. Rappahannock must start taking care of its own problems rather than depending on outside assistance, the Piedmont District supervisor emphasized. His remarks met with no arguments from the rest of the board and as the supervisors trooped across the court yard after their jail house tour, Hubert Gilkey commented "we’re really working together as a team.” We couldn't be more pleased. Winterization Program Successful Your Area Agency on Aging Winterization Program has helped over 400 low-income families in Orange. Madison, Culpeper, Rappahannock, and Fauquier Counties save money on heating bills since the agency began administering the program in 1979. Through the program eligible households can get storm windows, attic insulation. weatherstripping, and caulking installed at no cost, as well as other measures designed to keep the house warm and save energy. The purpose of the program is two-fold: Winterization promotes energy conservation. Americans have worked together to dramatically reduce our nation's fuel consumption by turning back thermostats, driving at 55 m.p.h., insulating our homes, and using renewable energy sources like solar or wood heat. Thanks to energy conservation we are seeing a decrease in the country’s annual energy consumption for the first time in history. This inevitably leads to less dependence on foreign oil and lower prices for our energy. We all benefit from energy conservation. The winterization program also helps low-income families save money on heating costs and stay warm. The vast majority of our clients are elderly or handicapped and need what little money they have for food, medicine, doctors' bills and other necessary expenses. Unlike other federally funded programs, winterization offers a one-time investment toward home improvements which will continue to benefit the occupants for years to come. After a person’s home is winterized, the money saved in home heating can be used for other necessities and he is less dependent on help from other government aid like the Fuel Assistance Program. Although any low-income household may be eligible for winterization, first priority is given to the homes of elderly and handicapped individuals. To be eligible, a family member must have received assistance from SSI or ADC within the last 12 months or fall w'ithin our income guidelines. The guidelines vary according to the family size. (For example: A family of one person must have an income less than $5,386 per year. A family of two must have less than $7,113 per year.) Flome owners and renters alike can be eligible for winterization. In the case of renters, however, the landlord is asked to contribute toward the cost of the service and must agree to allow the occupant to remain in the home under the existing rental conditions for a minimum of three years. Besides being an energy conservation program and a home improvement program, winterization was a job training program for the unemployed until CETA funding was cut last year. Since then our work force was reduced by 80 percent.

Mr. Wingfield came to RCHS at a very difficult time. He was hired to replace a county institution, Mr. H. B. Winfrey, who had been loved and respected as principal for many years. Mr. Wingfield’s job was not an easy one, and 1 recall that he was not extremely popular with students or teachers the first year or so. However, he made a lot of changes for the good of the school and gained the respect of many people. 1 was among them. Although I have been rather vocal most of my life, I was always shy about taking charge and asserting myself. Mr Wingfield constantlyencouraged me. 1 knew that if I ever had a question or a problem that I could count on him. Over the years 1 have really grown to admire him for always expecting people to be the best that they can be, and for setting a good example. As a teacher myself, I have had the opportunity to watch Virginia's School Boards’ abuses of power. Some members don't have children in the public school system, and, because they are appointed, not elected, they really tend to lose touch with what is going on inside the buildings. The sad part of all this is that aside from the fact that it's rare to find a principal who genuinely cares about his teachers these days, (many seem to be afraid they’ll lose their jobs if they’re not totally dictatorial with their faculties), the real losers here are the students. 1 just hope the good teachers ‘back home’ don't, because of the present situation and out of frustration, throw in the towel! JANET HACKLEY MAKELA Thank You To the editor: The Fodderstack run is but a memory. The aches and pains are now gone. However, six miles seemed like sixty that windy day. By the time the starters gun sounded my shirt was very decorated with names of my sponsors. The funds are now rolling in and as of Monday, we have $282.00 donated by local people to support Senior Citizen activities. Early's Carpel and Blue Ridge Gun Shop in Amissville were very generous pledging $5.00 per mile. One of the active seniors here at the site gave $50.00. To all of you, may I express my thanks. We will use the money to fuel our thirsty vans for our picnics and fishing trips during the warm months. FAYE CRESCENT1 Site Coordinator Rappahannock County From Both Barrels Leadership In Crisis By GEORGE BOWLES Rappahannock Special Writer The deepening disarray of the state Democratic party is providing Gov. Chuck Robb with his first real test in political crisis management. How well he meets that test is no doubt being watched with considerable interest by Democratic leaders at the national level. Gov. Robb. 42, is among a select group of promising young men and women within the party who are widely regarded as having exceptional potential for national office. It is therefore important to his future that he demonstrate he can lead Virginia Democrats out of this most recent wilderness into which they have managed to blunder. It must be said at the outset that the party landed in its present predicament in part because Gov. Robb, through a star-crossed exercise of gubernatorial leadership, did what seemed entirely reasonable at the time in an effort to keep the party out of trouble. Following the announcement of Sen. Harry F. Byrd Jr. that he would not seek reelection, a half dozen or so prominent Democrats indicated an interest in the party's nomination to succeed him. These included former Atty. Gen. Andrew Miller, state Sens. Hunter Andrews and Edward Holland, Fairfax Commonwealth’s Attorney Robert Horan, Alexandria attorney William Thomas and Del. Owen Pickett of Virginia Beach. A divisive and expensive convention battle loomed. Mr. Robb, seeking to forestall such an intra-party bloodletting, suggested that several of those interested get together and decide among themselves which would have the best chance of waging a successful campaign against First District Congressman Paul Trible. the presumptive Republican nominee. After several meetings, the members of the group—some of them grudgingly—settled on Del. Pickett. He seemed to have the “fewest negatives” and demonstrated he could raise the necessary money for a campaign. The governor promptly endorsed his candidacy. But Mr. Pickett, a decent and amiable man, quickly got into trouble. His unwillingness to articulate his positions on issues frustrated party workers, and his professed conservatism along with his admiring remarks about Sen. Byrd infuriated many blacks. Most especially, they infuriated black Sen. Douglas Wilder of Richmond. The senator threatened to launch his own independent campaign for the Senate, a move which would devastate the Democrats' chances of victory. There are many other factors involved, but these, simply stated, lie at the heart of Gov. Robb's problem, m sum, as this is written, his party is a political disaster area. Somehow, between now and the Democratic state convention in June, the governor must reconcile the fractious Democrats ter Del. Pickett’s candidacy or find another man. And. he must Find some formula by which the rebellious black defectors can be returned to the Democratic fold. If he fails on either count, the partv likely faces a stunning rebuff at the polls in November. But if Gov. Robb is able to bring all this off, and especially if the Democrats can reclaim the Senate seat, his stock as a national figure will soar. So far, he has had an impressive string of electoral and legislative triumphs. His success or failure in dealing with this latest crisis of leadership could have implications far beyond the election immediately at hand and far beyond the boundaries of the Commonwealth. Blood Pressure Clinic May has been designated as high blood pressure month. Each week during the month your local health department will be bringing you an article on the following topics: Definition of Hypertension, The Cause and Effect of Hypertension, and The Treatment of Hypertension. High blood pressure, medically referred to as hypertension, is one of the most serious diseases in the United States. It contributes directly or indirectly to over one million deaths a year. It affects over thirty-five million people, approximately one out of every 4 or 5 American adults. Your health department is determined to do something about this disease which can lead to two of the major cardiac killers—heart attack and stroke. For your convenience the local health department will have a free blood pressure program at the Emporium in Sperryville on Sat.. May 22nd from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Everyone is invited to come and have their blood pressures taken. Pickett Withdraws From Senate Race Democrat Owen B. Pickett (Virginia Beach) announced Tuesday that he is dropping out of the U. S. Senate race, an action which leaves Democrats with no major candidate a month before their state nominating convention in Roanoke. Mr. Pickett had said Friday on a visit to Warrenton that he was optimistic about his chances to win the nomination and the election. In a statement released by his campaign staff in Richmond Tuesday, the 51-yearold lawyer and accountant said "events and developments of recent weeks have convinced me that there may be others more able to unify the Democratic party and reassemble the coalition that contributed so mightily to last year’s success.” — Mr. Pickett, a 10-year veteran of the House of Delegates, made his announcement almost a week after he released his delegates to the convention, allowing them their freedom to choose the best candidate to oppose Rep. Paul S. Trible (R-Va.), the likely GOP nominee. “I will no longer seek my party's nomination for the U. S. Senate, nor will I allow my name to be placed into * nomination for that high office,” Del. Pickett said Tuesday. Mr. Pickett’s campaign manager, Tim Ridley, said in Richmond that it was clear Pickett’s candidacy was creating tensions within the party. “Owen just felt that he did not want his candidacy to be the cause of some sort of irreparable damage to the party,” Mr. Ridley said. ' Del. Pickett’s candidacy ran into trouble recently when state Sen. L. Douglas Wilder (D-Richmond), the state senate’s only black member, threatened to run against Del. Pickett and Rep. Trible as an independent. Most Democrats agree that such a bid would doom the Democratic nominee, since Sen. Wilder would gain an overwhelming majority with the black vote. Black voters were a key to Democratic state-wide victories last year when Governor Charles S. Robb, Lieutenant Governor Richard I. Davis, and Attorney General Gerald L Baliles defeated their GOP opponents. Sen. Wilder said he was dissatisfied with the Virginia House of Delegates Democratic leadership early this year after house committees killed bills that ( OWEN B. PICKETT created a state holiday for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and banned tax exemptions for private schools that discriminate on basis of race. Sen. Wilder is expected to announce Wednesday whether he will run as an independent, seek the Democratic nomination, or refuse to run altogether. A secretary in Sen. Wilder’s Richmond law office said Tuesday that the Senator would not comment to reporters until Wednesday morning. In an interview with Arundel Newspapers editors last week in Warrenton, Dd. Pickett said he has had “two sit-down discussions with Senator Wilder and on both occasions, he told me the problem was not with me—that the problem was in the general response that he had perceived to the programs and the objectives of the black community, taking into account their strong showing on behalf of Democratic nominees last year.” He also said Friday that Sen. Wilder was not holding him “personally accountable” for the defeat of the two bills. Del. Pickett said he did not vote on either bill, since he was not a member of the committees that defeated them. Despite his announcement Tuesday, Del. Pickett said he is still confident that a Democrat can be elected to the Senate seat now held by Harry F. Byrd Jr. (I-Va.), who said last year he will not seek another term. Mr. Ridley said Del. Pickett reached his decision in Virginia Beach Monday morning and that he spoke to Governor Robb on the subject later in the day. The Governor’s press spokesman George Stoddart could not be reached for comment on what role the Governor played in the decision. Rep. Trible, who is expected to receive the GOP nomination in Richmond during the party’s state convention, released a one paragraph statement Tuesday on Del. Pickett’s action. State voters, the congressman said, “are concerned about jobs and opportunity, and about the future for themselves and for their families. That should be the focus of this campaign, and the sooner the better.” A number of Democrats are now expected to vie for the party’s nomination during the June 4-5 convention. Among those being mentioned are state Senate Majority Leader Hunter B. Andrews (D-Hampton), state Sen. Edward M. Holland (DArlington), Lieutenant Governor Davis, and Fairfax Commonwealth’s Attorney Robert F. Horan Jr. Mr. Ridley said Del. Pickett plans to attend the state convention and to work toward nominating a solid candidate. Del. Pickett "wants to see the party unified,” Mr. Ridley added. Correction A conveyance in last week's real estate transactions was incorrectly listed as a transfer from Peter H. Kramer to David Konick. This was a deed of trust and the property was conveyed to David Konick only as trustee for the note owner. The News regrets the error.

New Focus For VEC Restructured, fully staffed Charlottesville-Culpeper Virginia Employment Commission offices are entering a new era of operations. In recovering from recent temporary losses of resources and staff, the Job Service is focusing on its basic, legislated labor exchange function. This concentration on the referral of qualified, job ready individuals to those jobs for which employers are seeking workers best serves area employers, job seekers and the community at large. Economic conditions have resulted in an extraordinarily skilled, experienced pool of job seekers, especially among Unemployement Insurance recipients. This, coupled with Amissville U.M.

Even those employers with other sources of employees are finding it advantageous to list their openings with the Job Service. In addition, with this shift in emphasis, an increasingly broader spectrum of experienced, skilled job seekers are discovering the advantages of VEC placement services. In turn, increasing numbers of employers are using the Job Service for recruitment of employees as the quality of its labor exchange capability is demonstrated. Essentially, the role of the Job Service has shifted from that of human resource development to that of a result oriented, economic development organization. As other agencies are funded and staffed for the express purpose of the unskilled, long term and hard core unemployed, it is in their interest for the Job Service to refer them to where marketable skills can be developed. Despite the shift in emphasis from human resource development. Job Service assistance in obtaining unsubsidized employment is available to eligible economically disadvantaged through the Targeted Job Tax Credit Program. Last year, employers in this area qualified for potential tax credits totaling over $700,000 by hiring economically disadvantaged workers through this program.

With the economy in the shape it's in and no prior restaurant experience, Jenkins acknowledged that he's “taking a long shot” with the family's new business venture. “But there's no competition here because there are no other fast food places in the county...We welcome everybody out and hope they like the food we serve. We'll try to keep everybody satisfied so that they'll make dinner at The Family TeePee a habit." Thunderbird Talk “Cabin Run: An Era of.

Area Red Cross Appeals For Help The Fauquier Chapter of the American Red Cross has issued its annual call for funds, hoping that this year contributions will be sufficient to enable it to avoid a second successive deficit. Last year the chapter had to spend approximately $2,500 more than it received in contributions. In a letter to residents of Rappahannock and Fauquier Counties—the area served by the chapter—Col. James T. ■ White, of Flint Hill, and Douglas R. Smith, of Warrenton, co-chairmen of the fund drive, said: "We know you realize that we cannot continue to run a deficit and still serve the community as we have been doing." Last year, in nearly all of its five activities. The Fauquier Chapter exceeded its efforts of the previous year, yet it did it on less money, according to the report enclosed with the letter. White and Smith wrote that "These are noi the best of times to be asking for money. Bui we must. You are our sole support; we receive no money from anyo government agency. We are being as frugal as we can." The $17,200 the chapter is budgeting for this year is approximately the same amount it spent Iasi year, including a substantial amount (hat must be sent io ihe national headquarters of the Red Cross. By law, the Red Cross is charged with disaster relief and aid to military families. In January of this year alone, the Fauquier Chapter spent $355 to help five families that were burned out of their homes. It also had to assist a veteran stranded in Warrenton en route home when his money was stolen. Last year the chapter handled 118 requests from families of active and former military personnel. These requests covered a wide range, from helping someone to apply for government benefits 10 verifying the need for emergency leave—a procedure required by ihe Defense Department. Food and furnishings were supplied to six families whose homes were damaged by fire last year, and the Fauquier Chapter supplied 34 volunteers to work in the area's nursing homes and hospital. In 1981, as in the previous year, the chapter received a certificate of merit for exceeding its quota in the blood drives. Last year, too, the chapter organized a blood drive at Fauquier High School for the first lime; it was so successful it was repeated two weeks ago. Among the most vital of the chapter’s services is first aid and water safety training. Last year, 150 people were trained in standard first aid—well above the previous year’s total—35 in advanced first aid, and 333 in cardiac pulmonary resuscitation. The chapter’s trainers also awarded certificates in the various grades of water safety or swimming to 211 instructors.

Litterbugs Costly Litterbugs cost Rappahannock Couniy $8,843 and Virginia motorists $2,102,367 last year, despite the best efforts of many organizations and individuals to combat the problem, the state Department of Highways and Transportation said today. Thai's the amount the department spent to pick up trash from roadsides, medians, rest areas, and waysides. Expressing the cost in another way, the department said the job took 305.207 manhours of work, or the equivalent of some 7,630 work weeks. The dollar expense represented an increase of $558,000 over the previous year. But the department said that didn't necessarily reflect a comparable growth in the litter problem, since labor and truck fuel costs were higher and more effort was devoted to litter collection in some areas. "The most frustrating part of this whole problem is that money spent to pick up trash buys virtually nothing of lasting value to the public," says C. O. Leigh, the department's highway maintenance engineer. If it weren’t spent for litter, he said, the money could be used for road and bridge improvements. Leigh said the department is continuing to work with a sister state agency, the Division of Litter Control, in an attempt to inform Virginians of the high cost of lit lering. Under the Litter Division's grant program last year, 76,430 volunteer hours were contributed to cleanup programs which covered 18,860 miles of highway, the removal of 820 illegal dumps, and the removal of 68,460 cubic yards of trash. Leigh said drivers could help further lo solve he problem by— — Keeping liner bags or similar comainers in iheir vehicles and using them uniil irash can be disposed of in a proper manner, and. — Using liner barrels placed by (he depart mem ai rest areas and other sites along state-maintained highwavs. Some 1.400 such containers are provided for liner disposal, and are emptied regularly by highway crews. Bloomers Are Host Family L>r. and Mrs. Jeff Bloomer of Culpeper will represent the Rappahannock Lions Club as host family for a visiting youth from overseas this summer under the International Youth Exchange program.

Rapp Loses Two By GARY LKAKF, Sports CorrrwpondriH Last Wednesday, the Luray Bulldogs defeated Rappahannock’s Panthers by a score of 8-3. According to coach Glen Davis, "we just got outplayed. They had a good pitcher and we couldn't hit him." Eric Bear did manage to get one big one, however, scamming a solo homerun over the left field fence. Rapp’s Mike Brown went the distance for the Panthers on the mound." Mike did a better job than the score indicated." Davis added. Rapp Wins On Thursday Rappahannock beat Strasburg for the second time this season, 4-1. Lee Anderson pitched a 4 hitter in seven innings to pick up his second win of the year. Pops Aylor upped his batting average by getting 2 hits in 2 at bats, a double and triple. Eric Bear continued his hot bat by hitting a long triple to left-center field. Although the team had a good offensive game, Coach Davis credited the win to "tightly played defense.” Pops Aylor is now leading the district in hitting, batting 500, and is leading the team in stolen bases with 16. One of the best accomplishments is making long story short. —Kin Hubbard Building? •Paint i, •Lumber > •Millwork ' vv •Hardware 4 Complete One-Step BUILDING SUPPLY Warrenton Building Material Co., Inc. on the By Pass Warrenton 3471400 Generals Trounce Panthers The Panthers lost their last home game of the season Tuesday to Stonewall Jackson, 9-3.

Many times those injuries can be due to the poor functioning of the patient’s foot itself. Achilles tendonitis, a frequent complaint, is an inflamation of the sheathe surrounding the tendon. Patients complain of pain on motion at the heel or leg when walking or running*If severe, rest Is the most important treatment. If only very mild, stretching exercises and the application of Ice after a workout is of some benefit. Remember, in any injury if red or swollen (usually the first 36-48 hrs.) use Ice afterwards. After workouts if there is a mild injury therefore use ice. If persistent, in between workouts use moist heat. A public service with the aim of promoting a better foot health environment.

Supervisors Cut Budget (Continued from Page 1) after proposed renovations are completed and the jail is again operational at minimum state standards. If the jail is reopened, he said, it might be possible to eliminate the $6,000 appropriation for contractual care of prisoners. (For the past five years, Rappahannock prisoners have been housed in Fauquier County’s facility at a per day cost of $8 an inmate. But in March, Fauquier sheriff Luther Cox announced that over-crowding forced discontinuance of that arrangement. With the closest empty jail beds at least 50 miles away, the supervisors have tentatively decided to proceed with renovation of the local 24hour lock-up so it can once again be used as a jail. An appropriation of $10,000 for design work has been included in the 1982-83 budget.) Improper Billing Supervisor Charles Estes, former sheriff here, maintained Fauquier can't legally bill Rappahannock for prisoner care since that county is already receiving reimbursement from the state for inmates from Rappahannock. “They’re not supposed to (charge Rappahannock for housing prisoners) but they Ariens rear-tine tillers are rugged time and labor savers in the garden Models available. ranging from 5 to 8 hp All designed for years of dependable tilling and tough garden chores' See your Ariens dealer today!

That’s why sheriff Cox said they were no longer going to bill us...But then we got a bill this month,” he added. Buntin reported that he'd checked with the jail in Charlottesville and had been informed that Rappahannock prisoners would be accepted if space is available but at a charge of $11 per day. On the other hand, Buntin said, sheriff Ray Dodson in Page has agreed to accept Rappahannock prisoners at no charge if he has room in that county’s facility. He noted that state reimbursement runs about $7 per prisoner per day. EMS Council Supported In asking the supervisors for $3,024 for the Emergency Medical Services Council (an increase of $1,005 over the allocation in the preliminary budget), Rappahannock's EM SC representative Donald Gore pointed out that in the three years since its establishment, the EMSC has secured $173,000 in grant funds for Rappahannock's rescue squads. The increase in county contributions is being sought, he explained, to replace decreased federal funding. 1 he only employee increases for I9S2-83 are proposed for the sheriff s office and the schools. An $8,000 appropriation for staff in the commissioner of revenue’s office reflects additional help to administer the land use program, a position authorized last year but left out of the budget and then later reinstated. Mental Health Explaining the $10,300 request for mental health and mental retardation (an increase of $935 over the current year), community services board director Jo Gorman told the supervisors that programs for next year must rely on state and local funding supplemented by fees from clients. However, state money will be awarded only as local match, with every $1 from local coffers bringing $3.75 from the state, she said. Gorman added that she expects mental health and mental retardation programs to become in Ihorlssd d«al The Rappahannock News now offers a full line of area topographic maps - the latest available from the U.

Total welfare expenses for 1982-83 of $213,852 include' $48,221 in local money, only $2,806 more than in the current year, according to Cox. Acting welfare director Nancy Reeve reported that economic conditions have brought about increased demands for both services and financial assistance but assured the supervisors that the department can stay within its proposed budget. After eliminating just $11,050 in three hours of work, the supervisors moved on to the school budget which they were scheduled to approve on Monday. School board chairman Beverly Massie again emphasized the need for action on the budget category which includes teacher salaries so as to allow superintendent Robert Estabrook a head start in recruiting teachers to fill 12 vacancies (to date) for next year. “I think they do deserve to know pretty soon but I don’t think we have to do it right today on the spot," responded supervisor H. B. Wood. Cox noted, however, that the supervisors are required by law to approve a school budget by May 1. Hubert Gilkey said he wasn't convinced of the need for the new administrative position of director of special services to oversee special education, Title 1 and gifted and talented programs. Although he said he “could live with" the 8.5 per cent pay increase sought by the school board, he noted that most salary increases awarded by other jurisdictions are in the four to eight percent range. “And most of them are falling in the middle," added supervisor chairman J. R. Latham. School board member Robert Eastham. emphasizing that his entire board had endorsed the 8.5 percent pay hike, pointed out that dropping off a percentage point or two from teacher salaries wouldn't save “an awful lot of money." At 8.5 percent, salaries for instructional personnel total $945,249, he said, while at seven percent, total teacher pay will be $932,000, a savings of only a half cent on the tax rate. $17,000 Per Percent Cox figured that each percentage point cut from the proposed pay raise for all school personnel plus ,the accompanying deduction in fixed charges for life insurance. social security, etc., will work out to 3 drop of $17,000 from the school budget. Eliminating the new position of special services director will cut an additional $20,000. Gilkey added. The new administrator will oversee special education services, "a very sensitive subject, one that’s embroiled in all kinds of legal complications,” Massie replied. “One misstep in that area could cost us more money than the salary for that position." "You're sitting between a rock and a hard place,” Eastham told the supervisors, acknowledging the dilemma they faced in accepting a school budget that will require a substantial tax increase. "If you’re not going to accept the budget, then I think you should send it back to the drawing board,” Eastham said, so the school board can make adjustments within the total the supervisors are willing to appropriate for education. RIFs Proposed "I want some riffing done in this school system!" Eastham announced, pointing to declining enrollment in Rappahannock’s public schools as justificatigp. Average daily Foreign & American Car Repairs Jack’s Service Center 30 Ashby Street Warren ton Specializing in German & Japanese _M*deCars -3785* membership is now at 1,051. To meet the State Department of Education’s standards of quality on pupilteacher ratio for that enrollment, Rappahannock needs 57'/i teaching positions, Eastham said. “We have 69...We may remove by law any teacher, tenured or not, if we have declining enrollment,” he said. “I don’t want to publicly disagree with a statement made by a member of the school board (but) you’ll find that all school divisions have a number of teachers over the SOQ minimum,” countered chairman Beverly Massie. This is the result, she said, of offering classes such as French, chemistry, physics and calculous which service a smaller number of students. "I doh’t want you to be mislead,” Massie told the supervisors, acknowledging an enrollment decrease in the county’s public schools. “But you can’t say that we can lop off ten instructional teachers (because the number of teachers exceeds the SOQ minimum for pupil-teacher ratio)," she maintained Bottom Line Cuts At an earlier meeting, the supervisors voted to exercise categorical, rather than bottom line, control of the s:hool board’s budget. On Monday, the school board chairman asked that cuts be made on the total rather than in specific categories if the supervisors feel reductions are necessary. Massie acknowledged that it would be easier for the school board if the supervisors took the role of “bad guys" and reduced the instructional category to reflect a lower percentage salary increase for teachers. “But the school board is better able to make adjustments with a little more insight (into needs of the Jucational system) than the board of supervisors," she said. “Make your cut on the bottom line dictated by the tax rate you feel is acceptable to the county and we’ll fight it out at the school board ...I’m going to vote to cut personnel expenses and I’ll probably be outvoted again," Eastham said. Separating the school operational budget and debt service from capital outlay, the supervisors voted unanimous approval for a $96,625 expenditure that includes $90,000 for a new combination bus shop-central office. “It’s something almost mandatory that we've got to do," noted Wood. Tackling the operational budget and debt service next, the supervisors agreed to cut $72,000 from the bottom line, suggesting that the new administrative position be dropped and at least 2.5 percent be shaved off pay increases for all school personnel. ■six percent is wnai people are talking about in other localities," said Latham. "Workers at a lot of big manufacturing plants and organizations are taking a cut in pay," supervisor Clarence Baldwin added. He reported that employees at a firm in nearby Centreville who had been laid off agreed to come back to work recently at $1.50 less per hour in salary. “How do we justify 8.5 percent when tfie state is giving four percent?" noted Charles Estes, asking the school board chairman for her reaction to a six percent pay raise for school personnel. "It’s certainly not a popular position for me to support but I understand where you're coming from,” Massie replied. Voicing her respect for the members of the board of supervisors, she acknowledged their concern for education. “I know you’re not going to be putting heavy-handed pressure on the school board to achieve results at the ballot box," she said. But at the same time, Massie stressed the importance of supporting the county’s educational system: “These are the citizens who are going to do the voting in the years ahead and if we don’t have an intelligent electorate, there’s no hope for us.” The action by the supervisors on Monday leaves the school budget at $2,476,365 including operations, debt service, capital outlay and Title I. The total county budget to be advertised with a 33 cent tax rate on real property and a rate of $5.60 (with 25 percent assessment ratio) on personal property now stands at $3,354,236. The final public hearing on proposed expenditures for 1982-83 will be held June 7 with the board meeting in special session to adopt the budget on June 14.

But when we name the name of Jesus he is always there. As time so swiftly passes and our loved ones are gone, The tears may trickle down our face but we know we must press on. Mother a lot of things has changed since you went away, If we could only talk to you there's so much we would say. The flowers we put on your grave they wither and decay. But the love we have in our heart for you is with us everyday. Mom, we would like to say "Happy Mother's Day", since you are away, And to say that we remembered you on this special day.

Put Some Trout On The Table By THERESA REYNOLDS Rappahannock New* Staff H ritcr This time of year finds many Rappahannock people back in the woods and up rocky hills at their favorite trout-fishing spot. Most trout fishermen learned one way to cook trout and stick to that method for everything they catch. Joan Cone, cookbook author and food columnist, would like to remedy that situation. Joan writes a monthly column for Virginia Wildlife, the Virginia Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries publication, and has written several cookbooks with instructions on how to prepare everything from raccoons to catfish. One of her most welcome contributions is a fool-proof method for freezing trout and other fish. Joan says that with her method, you can keep fish in the freezer for at least a year, with no loss of quality. Anyone interested in a copy of Joan’s cookbook can reach her in care of the magazine in Richmond, or in Williamsburg at P. O. Box 242, Williamsburg, Va. 23187. Protective Dip 1 envelope (1 tablespoon) unflavored gelatin Vt cup fresh or reconstituted lemon juice P/4 cups water Stir gelatin into cold waterlemon mixture. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly until gelatin is dissolved and mixture is almost clear. Cool to room temperature. Fish can be whole, in steaks or fillets. Dip the fish into this lemon glaze and rain for several seconds before wrapping individually in a heavy plastic film. Then place within heavy duty plastic freezer bags for double protection, marking the date and other details, such as exact contents, on bag. The best size packages to freeze are those which represent a meal for your family. Foiled Fish 4 pan-dressed trout, bass, crappie or other fish, Vi to 3/« pounds each 2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms Vi cup chopped onion 3 tablespoons butter or margarine 1 cup chopped, seeded, peeled tomato Tanning Isn’t Healthy —It’s Dangerous— The niosi dangerous pari of ihe year for sun damage to your skin is not necessarily ilie honest pari of ihe year, according 10 a leading authority on the dangers of excessive sun exposure. Dr. Myra Barker, vice president of research and development for Mary Kay Cosmetics. Inc., explains that sun exposure reaches a danger peak for ultraviolet B radiation (the type generally blamed for most skin damage) on June 21 in the Northern Hemisphere, "but ihat can be very misleading,” she says. ‘‘The dangers begin building up in April and May. You may think more about it in August when the temperatures top 100 degrees, but the danger of skin damage actually peaked two months earlier.’’ according to Dr. Barker. The dangers of excessive exposure to the sun are many. Some signs genrally considered part of the normal aging process are not really from aging as much as from being in the sun, whether the exposure was planned or not. The most serious consequence of sun damage, however, is skin cancer. Dr. Barker says an estimated 300,000 persons this year will be treated for skin cancer, and that about 5,000 of these persons will die. "Skin cancer is one of the most common forms of the disease in this country,” she says, “and the sad part is that most of these cases are unnecessary. “It is strictly a question of our personal habits and of the choices we make for ourselves in terms of sun exposure." she says. Dr. Barker also cautions against thinking a tan is “healthy." “A tan only looks healthy,” she says. “One of the most misunderstood conceptions about sunlight is that a tan is protective and once you’ve tanned, you no longer need a sunscreen. “This is not true. Tanning will help prevent a sunburn, but tanning increases your risk of skin aging and skin cancer, li is not protective against skin aging. It is not protective against skin cancer." Dr. Barker also offers these thoughts on related subjects: — Sunburning: ‘‘A sunburn is not a simple phenomenon that is temporary. hurts a while and goes away. It is a permanent form of skin damage and there is evidence that severe sunburning early in life lends to increase the chance of skin cancer later.” —Freckling: "People who freckle are more likely to develop skin cancer than other people because freckling is a sign the skin cannot adequately pigment itself evenly. If you have children who freckle, please, please teach them to wear a sunscreen." —Acne: "Many people believe acne is lessened by sun exposure. Sometimes this is so, but there are many people whose acne doesn't improve, it gets worse. No one knows exactly why this is so and it's difficult to predict what will happen to any one person." —Spotting: "Those brown spots you see on the back of the hands or face that we used to call 'liver spots’ don’t have anything at all to do with your liver. It has to do with sun exposure.” Fortunately, there are (wo< things the average person can do to limit damage from the sun. First, don’t expose yourself to direct sunlight for extended periods of time. Once the damage is done, Dr. Barker says, there is no way to undo it. Second, if you are going to bp in the sun, even for short periods of time, use a sunscreen with a high SPF (Sun Protection Factor). The higher the SPF number, the greater the amount of ultraviolet radiation it will absorb before your skin is damaged. Use of a high SPF sunscreen is particularly important for persons who sunburn easily. 2 tablespoons white table wine Vi teaspoon seasoned salt Vi teaspoon crushed thyme leaves Vi teaspoon sugar V» teaspoon pepper Thaw fish if frozen.
