At last Wednesday’s meeting, the Rappahannock supervisors received a request from the board of supervisors in Culpeper County, asking for support on state legislation aimed at curbing hunting abuses. Culpeper’s county attorney Charles Barrell reported that his board of supervisors have formally requested Delegate George Beard to introduce cased gun legislation in the next session of the Virginia General Assembly. The proposed law would require all firearms in a vehicle on a public street, road or highway to be cased. “I understand that the states of West Virginia and Pennsylvania have successful case laws which help cut down on the incidents of hunting from the road," Barrell wrote. He explained that he’d deliberately included the word "firearms” in the proposed legislation since some of the problem hunters are now hunting with high powered pistols to get around a local ordinance which makes it illegal to carry a loaded rifle or shotgun in a motor vehicle on a public road. In addition. Barrell wrote, probtetW-tioKfer*' n<*r carrying rifles that use clip magazines and keep a loaded clip ready in their pockets. The gun is technically unloaded but when the hunters see a deer, it takes only a few seconds to insert the loaded clip and start firing, he poted. The proposed legislation will make transport of weapons in a vehicle much safer, Barrell maintained in his letter to the Rappahannock board. He also noted that regulations and laws covering hunting in national parks require that all guns in a vehicle be cased. The same regulations reportedly apply on Virginia game commission lands, Barrell added. Trespass Included Culpeper’s supervisors have also asked Delegate Beard to introduce legislation which will add violations of trespass laws and gun laws related to hunting to the list of violations for which a hunting license may be revoked. The proposed bill calls for (1) license revocation for a second offense occurring within a five year period and (2) raising the maximum fine for hunting with a revoked license from $50 to $250, according to Barren’s letter. ‘‘The proposed changes will give a county leverage to control the problem of deer hunting with dogs,” the county attorney maintained. ""—“Uitfurtumrtety,** the controls are only needed for a few careless hunters, but dangerous problems do result from only a few,” Barrell wrote, explaining the motivation behind the laws proposed by the Culpeper board. Rappahannock’s supervisors on Wednesday responded that they hadn’t had time yet to study Culpeper’s proposals and voted to table the request. “I want to discuss this with the commonwealth’s attorney," supervisor Charles Estes needed. Junior Fire Fighters The board also took no action last week on a request from Paul Poling for adoption of a local ordinance which would allow full use of junior fire fighters. Poling reported that fire services successfully supported enabling legislation in last year’s General Assembly session which allows junior fire fighters (16, 17 and 18year-olds) to enter burning buildings as part of their fire fighting activities, provided the young people have had at least 60 hours of fire training and 40 hours of CPR. Adoption of a local ordinance under the new enabling legislation "gives us the option of using juniors to their full advantage,” Poling said. "But individual departments still have the option of prohibiting juniors from entering burning buildings.” He emphasized that in (Continued on Page 2) Lane's Petitions Missing At the June 14 meeting of the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors, incumbent school board member Nelson Lane presented the supervisors with petitions reportedly bearing 407 signatures from residents of StonewallHawthorne District who favored his reappointment to the school board. Supporters of Jimmy Cannon likewise presented petitions last month signed by 235 people, all but a dozen or so registered voters of that district. Cannon's supporters also questioned whether names on Lane’s list belonged to residents of Stonewall-Hawthorne. The district representative on the board, H. B. Wood, verified only that the signers were “good and live people.” At that June 14 session, Lane was reappointed to the school board for a four-year terms. Last Wednesday Sharon Kilpatrick, one of the leaders of the petition drive for Cannon, presented a formal request, relayed by supervisor clerk Diane Bruce, for copies of Lane’s lists. “I burned them up.” responded Wood. “Under Freedom of Information, those petitions are supposed to be part of the supervisors’ records.” Bruce noted. "Who wants them?” inquired Wood. The clerk replied that the information was being sought by Sharon Kilpatrick. "You don’t have them? You can’t make them available?” she questioned. Wood answered that he would check through his records at home but added that he was reasonably sure that the petitions had been destroyed. Inspection Contract Renewed After a long executive session on “contracts" during which the board met first with welfare superintendent Sylvia Kreitler, then commonwealth's attorney Douglas Baumgardner and finally zoning administrator David Konick, the supervisors returned to open session and approved a oneyear renewal of the contract with Fauquier for building inspection services. The agreement expired June 30. Under the terms of the contract, Fauquier is to provide building inspection services to Rappahannock with inspections scheduled in groups at times mutually agreed upon by both parties. Rappahannock is to perform enforcement actions ‘‘to the fullest extent possible” and to carry insurance covering liability or loss arising from acts, errors or omissions by Fauquier personnel. The contract sets fees at: —$100 per permit issued for inspection required for new construction which ordinarily includes rough-in, final electrical and final inspection for occupancy. (Rappahannock personnel have responsibility for inspecting footings.) —$35 for a special trip from Warrenton to make a one-time inspection such as electrical only, farm buildings, pools, mobile homes and the like. —$15 for one-time in(Continued on .Page 8) * —W.p|nhin«w* N«m Mmo/LorH.

Jenkins Given Three Year Suspended Sentence Judge Shore Robertson called his own witness to the stand in circuit court on Monday, checking on jail facilities before sentencing Donald Jenkins to three years in the penitentiary for shooting into an occupied motor vehicle. Robertson asked count) sheriff W.A. Buntin where Jenkins would be held if he were to be incarcerated locally. “I’m not sure yet. We have no stable location." Buntin replied. “I’d have to call the area jails to see who would be able to take him." the sheriff said, adding that this has been the case since March when Fauquier County cancelled its agreement to hold Rappahannock prisoners. Just before a jury trial was scheduled to get underway last May 20, Jenkins changed a "not guilty" plea to "guilty" on charges of shooting into a motor vehicle. a felony offense that carries a penalty of between two and ten years in the penitentiary. In the sentencing hearing this week, probation officer Dean Hahn told the court that he has found Jenkins to be very cooperative and very remorseful. He described the Washington man’s prior record as "very minor” and noted that Jenkins was “apparently very much under the influence of alcohol” when he fired into a pick-up truck driven by Billy Estes on September 26, 1981. Since that incident, the probation officer said, Jenkins has been “alcohol free.” John Burke, pastor of the Gid Brown Bible Church, said he’d known the defendant all his life and had visited him in jail following the shooting offense. Burke testified that he’d led Jenkins to the Lord and that his life since has been ‘‘changed miraculously.” The minister said he was sure Jenkins was sorry for what he had done, noting that he’s become a regular participant in church services. “I’ve been counseling him since September,” Burke said. “If he’s truly accepted Jesus Christ as his saviour, he’ll live with the Lord,” said the Cid Brown pastor, adding that he wifi continue both counseling Jenkins and reporting to the court. Taking the witness stand, Jenkins told the judge that his life “has changed a whole lot” since September 26, 1981, and that he understood someone could have been seriously injured or killed in the shooting incident. Under questioning by his attorney Lee Albrecht, Jenkins gave his prior criminal offenses as destruction of private property and disorderly conduct and assured the court that he will continue to refrain from drinking. In reply to an inquiry from (Continued on Page 6) Federal Land Bank Has Money To Loan By LOKRIK YOl \G HappuhaniMM-k S|H-«-ial W rilrr The Federal Land Bank of Warrenton held a dinner meeting last week for Rappahannock county realtors. The meeting w as led by A1 Henry, the Rappahannock representative from the regional office in Warrenton. Henry's purpose in holding the meeting was to develop a working relationship between members of the Federal Land Bank and the realtors, as well as to acquaint the Realtors with the Land Bank’s policies. Henry first gave the history of the Farm Credit System which began back in 1916 as a Federally -funded organization. The initial funding provided by the government was reimbursed in 1927, after which the Farm Credit System became and has remained— an entirely member-owned group. Since then the Farm Credit System has grown to be the largest lender in the United States. The Farm Credit System is an asset to farmers because the Federal Land Bank not only lends money for purchases of farm land and rural housing, but also for purchases of farm equipment. There does have to be proof that the equipment in question is necessary for a successful farm. The farm income is also taken into consideration. This proof of need before lending money for farm equipment purchases is one of several guidelines the Farm Credit System uses to determine loan recepients. Since the System is farmoriented, loans are made for properties where the primary amount of money is for land purchases. The example given by Henry emphasized Unemployment Rate 12% Rappahannock County continues to post the highest unemployment rate in the five-county Rappahannock - Rapidan Planning District, according to statistics for May released by the Virginia Employment Commission. For May, the unemployment rate in Rappahannock was 12 percent with 307 idle out of a work force of 2,563. By comparison, the unemployment rates in other jurisdictions for the same month were 7.1 percent in Culpeper, 7.0 percent in Orange, 7.5 percent in Madison and 4.9 percent in Fauquier. The overall unemployment rate for the district was 7.1 percent for the period, equal to the statewide rate and below the national rate of 9.1 percent. the land value as being the primary factor, “We will not finance a ten-acre lot with a $200,000 house because the value is in the house.” Henry attributes this stringent lending policy to the fact that a ten-acre tract of farmland does not generate a lot of agriculture. The other factor controlling loans on rural housing is that only 15 percent of the Federal Land Bank monies can be loaned out for these projects. (Continued on Page 10) Graduation Exercises Special graduation exercises for the 34 graduates of the emergency medical training (EMT) class which ended May 20 will be held this Monday, July 19, at 7:30 p.m. in the Flint Hill Fire Hall. The trainees taking the course posted an impressive 92 percent certification rate and put in 25 percent more hours of training than required by the state, according to instructors Frank Huff, Jr., and Kenny Pullen. The public is invited to attend the graduation program. For Turn Lane Right-Of-Way Given At RCHS By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock N«*w» Staff Writer The Rappahannock school board on Tuesday voted unanimously to donate necessary right-of-way and in return, the Virginia Department of Highways will allocate $100,000 for construction of two turn lanes on Route 211 in front of the county high school. “And I’ll try to sneak a right turn lane into the elementary school (where the gravel portion of the bus garage parking lot is now),” resident highway engineer Don Askew told the board members at the July 13 session. Askew gave credit for approval of the construction project to Piedmont District supervisor Charles Estes. “Thanks to him, we have $100,000 and as tight as things are, they don’t give that amount of money away easily.” The resident engineer explained that at his request Estes and supervisor chairman Dick Latham had appeared at the highway department’s pre-allocation hearing in Culpeper some months ago to plead for funds to four-lane Route 211 between Washington and Spenyville, a request that was denied. “I'd be surprised if we get it in the next eight or ten years,” Askew added. But fortunately for Rappahannock, he continued, Estes lingered until the end of the meeting end in talking with highway commissioner Harold King, pressed the need for “safety money” to put in turn lanes in front of Rappahannock County High School. With King favorably impressed by the need and feasibility of the project. Askew had his traffic engineers evaluate the situation and they determined that traffic volume in front of the school justified both right and left turn lanes. The project was forwarded to Richmond and the response was that 5100,000 would be provided if the school board donated the right-of-way needed for the improvements. Askew reported. Beat To Do “From a safety point of view, it’s the best thing we can do on Route 211 bearing in mind that it’s going to be eight or ten years before we have a complete solution to the traffic problem' on that highways,” the resident engineer said. When completed, the road section in front of RCHS will have three lanes with the middle lane a turning lane delineated by signs and by white lines painted on the highway, he explained. The additional 12-foot lane will provide for left turns into the parking area as well as left turns into the driveway by school buses, he said. Askew added that the Highway Department will have to relocate a portion of the ball field fence and will relocate the' flashing school zone sign (Continued on Page 81 Julie Burke Is All-Star Performer Julie Burke is singing her way to stardom. The pert, vivacious 15year-old has been chosen as an all-state act to perform with Virginia's Young Dominions after competition at 4-H Congress held at VP1 from June 21-25. Julie sang “Wouldn't It Be Loverly?” from “My Fair Lady" before an audience of 3,000 at Tech’s Buruss Hall. "It was my biggest audience ever." she reported. Was she scared? “No, not at all," said the RCHS sophomore who is more at home on the stage than most teenage misses are on the telephone. To get to the state finals of 4-H Share-The-Fun. Julie first won at the county level and then was one of two contestants selected to go on from district competition. “I didn’t even think I'd make it past county. I was still relaxed and laughing at the district show. There were 30 of us and I really didn't think I had a chance so I went at it in a light way.” But after her name was called out as one of the two district acts to advance to state Share-The-Fun, the atmosphere changed, according to Julie. At Blacksburg, kids in the 54 acts hoping to be selected for the Young Dominions ceased to be friendly competitors. “The pressure was awful,” Julie recalled. "Everybody was out to win even if it meant stepping on somebody else’s toes.” But despite the intensity. Julie found a bright side. She rehearsed in the room used by VPI's travelling performers, the New Virginians. ”1 got to practice in front of all those mirrors—that was the best part of it!” She also worked with John Howell, director of the New Virginians who asked the RCHS sophomore if she had considered studying performing arts at VP1.

Can Any Foreigner Understand This Complex Land? By DIANA BIRD Rapp«hanniirk New* Special V riter My journey into China, in some respects, almost ended effectively in Urumqi, Sinkiang, several days ago since our stay in Beijing was for only a day and a half, and by that time I had become ill with the Chinese affliction, a bad cold. In spite of a deteriorating condition, because we were given opportunities to see new sights, I persisted for a while. And how glad I am that I did! Sunday, our first day in Peking, is reserved for the Chinese to visit the Great Hall of the People, but our tour guides managed to get us admitted anyway. This monument, which may be the single most outstanding one constructed by the Peoples’ Republic of China, attracts Chinese as our White House attracts Americans as well as foreigners. As we were led past and through the thousands entering on Sunday, we had a chance to appreciate its significance to Chinese citizens. For persons who have not visited China, it may be important to indicate that in Beijing, the capital of China, in all for more than 600 years, the heart of the city is the old imperial palace - The Forbidden City, entered in the past only by consent of the emperor - a vast area of courts, pavilions and residences, surrounded by a moat and wall, pierced by four great gates in the cardinal directions. The main gate was Tien-an Men, the gate of heaven. It is from the ramparts of this imposing building that we have seen pictures of Mao-Tse-tung proclaiming the establishment of the revolutionary government in October 1949, and in the plaza before it, thousands of Chinese demonstrating on especial occasions. Over this gate a picture of Mao is still displayed - except for old historical ones, the only one I saw on this visit. To make Tien-an men Square, to the south of the gate, buildings over a large area were removed. Half a million people can stand in the plaza on numbered squares. At the far end, another ancient gate was preserved. On the east and west sides, two new buildings were erected, the Museum of the Revolution, which I have yet to see, and opposite, The Great Hall of the People. Between them, the mausoleum of Mao was also constructed. Thus it appears that in establishing the Peoples’ Republic of China, its founders sought on the one hand to link themselves with historic national authority, as represented by the Forbidden City, and also to commemorate themselves through the construction of new buildings and the creation of new central space for the people. The Great Hall The Great Hall of the People must be one of the largest single buildings in the world. It serves several purposes, but its principal one is to accommodate the National Peoples’ Congress where more than 1,500 representatives from all over China can meet annually or when called.

The space is unsupported by pillars, allowing all a good view. Sets of buttons situated at intervals permit simultaneous translations to be heard by the many minorities who do not speak Chinese. The front of the hall is a revolving stage which allows it to be turned into a theater with an orchestra. Our guide said that recently he had seen a French film there. Adjoining the Congress hall is a reception room where thousands can dine at once and where even more can attend a party. These two great rooms, in spite of their size, are designed to give a sense of human scale so that one does not feel lost within them. Every feature, such as a parquet wooden floor in the dining hall, is of the most elegant and beautiful materials and construction. The hand made carpets alone must be worth millions of dollars. While the remarkable architects and engineers who designed it are not mentioned, much is made of the fact that the building was constructed in less than one year to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the P.R.C. in 1959. Modern Chinese Art The most attractive features of the building are a series of rooms, which we would call caucus rooms, for the delegates, of the provinces, autonimous regions, and the cities of Peking and Shanghai. Each room features the art of a province or other locality and thus is distinctive. This was my first opportunity to see great modern Chinese art executed in traditional style. We were shown perhaps five of these rooms. Decorations on the Letters From China walls were: “paintings” of inlaid marble portraying scenes with birds, flowers and landscapes, others of embroiderary of fish, monkeys and pandas, for instance, and similar works made of feathers. Only careful examination reveals how they are constructed. Light, large porcelain platters of pink, white and green scenes are mounted on the walls of one room, so that as one enters one is uplifted and made glad. Screens of woven bamboo with bas-reliefs in carved bamboo decorate other rooms. There were cases holding carved ivory, jade, lacquer works and objects of other materials made with skill and charm. Many of these precious works of art could be touched, since this is not a museum, but of course no one tried to touch them. The taste expressed in everything is refined. The effect is to indicate the variety and beauty of the geography of China and the developed skills which exemplify this nation. Hence, one can visit the courts of marble, ceramics, pavilions, halls and artistic reliques of pre-revolutionary China amid the ancient trees of the Forbidden City, which now is designated The Palace Museum, and then turn to the constructions and treasures of the new China in the Great Hall of the People and the Museum of the Revolution. This conscious attempt to materialize the new society the Communist Party is bringing into being can only astonish. The boldness and inspiration which characterize the Great Hall of the People and the construction of Tienan Men Square lead on to admire the propaganda abilities of the leaders of the PRC. I am reminded of how our forefathers engaged Charles Pierre L'Enfant to design our capital and how they incorporated Greek and Roman elements of architecture into many of our early buildings to link us with Culpeper Request Tabled (Continued from Page 1) Rappahannock and other rural areas "juniors are probably better trained than most of the seniors and are around a lot more often.” Center To Seek Grant Joy Luke, a member of the board of directors for the non-profit Sursum Corda School and Day Care Center, informed the supervisors that the center hopes to try for community development block grant funds to help finance a building program. She noted that both the county and the incorporated town of Washington are eligible for a maximum of $700,000 through the block grant program. Each jurisdiction can make one application and if the total of the two doesn't exceed $1,400,000, the town and the county may join in a third application for the balance. Currently, Washington is considering a block grant application for its water system and the county fof Sperryville’s sewer system. "I know the sewer and water projects will take precedence but I think there will be money left over," Luke said. It is this left-over balance that Sursum Corda hopes to secure through a joint application from the town and the county, according to Luke. Block grant application forms are expected to be available as of July 14, she noted, adding that Sursum Corda's directors want to see the application first in order to determine whether they can meet all the criteria. Currently, the day care center has people completing the design of the facility proposed to be built, looking for land to build on and studying grant application procedures. In addition, Luke reported, John Capelle, executive director of the Rappahannock - Rapidan Planning District Commission, has agreed to assist and to administer the grant if one is awarded to Sursum Corda. “When we have all our facts in hand, we'd like to come back to talk to you in August,” Luke told the supervisors. State Pressure To Move Camille Harris, director of Sursum Corda, reported that the school and day care center is currently in its second rented location in six years, a renovated farm house that is now extremely crowded. “As a licensed day care center, we’re also faced with pressure from the state... to get out of that building," Harris said. “We’re assuring the state that we’re moving as fast as we can,” she said, adding that Sursum Corda has been working for three years on a building program and has a building fund established. As a non-profit corporation, the center is eligible for 100 percent funding for property purchase and construction through the block grant program, Harris continued. She acknowledged that funding criteria for this HOUR GLASS SERVICE Why Wait? We fill most prescriptions in the same day. Front Royal Optical Miller Opticians 531 E. Main St. 702 S.

In addition, she said, several individuals and foundations have expressed interest in helping to fund the building program while volunteer donations also have been promised by stone masons for foundation work and landowners for timber for the building. Harris said the new 5,000 square foot facility will probably cost between $250,000 and $300,000. Plans call for $100,000 to be raised locally. "We hope to get money from the state (through the block grant program) toward the $200,000 balance," the director of the non-profit day care center added. In response to a question from supervisor chairman Dick Latham, Harris said gnerally 55 children are enrolled full or part-time at Sursum Corda in any given week with an additional 35 served through educational enrichment, tutoring and speech therapy programs. "We're licensed for 30 children per day full-time,” Harris noted. "However, we’re now turning down students because we have no room. Park Visits Travel to Shenandoah National Park continues to decline, according to statistics released by the park for June, 1982. For calendar year 1982 the decrease, is 11 percent, compared with the previous year, dropping from 677,100 to 602,500. For June, 1982, compared with the same month in 1981, the decrease is 2.18 percent, with the number of travelers visiting the park slipping from 210,600 to 206,000. Overnight stays at the park declined from 65,845 in June, 1981, to 63,444 in June, 1982. Readings at the Big Meadows weather station give the maximum temperature for June as 78 degrees, the minimum 45 degrees and precipitation 5.88 inches. a republican past. The need for such propaganda is manifest everywhere: China is a “third world” country. It began with millions of poverty stricken, war ravaged, illiterate people, long degraded by foreigners. It is the home now of a quarter of the human race. China's must be the largest government or series of governments in the world. It is an experiment as novel and adventuresome as our own was at our nation's founding. The Communists here undertook their work in a much more complicated age, and with many fewer advantages. They grapple with insolvable problems, as we have - who can forget our Civil War? I question if any Western person, or perhaps anyone, can understand or know enough about present-day China. It presents a deceptively simple face: everywhere one looks one sees individuals and groups working at mundane tasks in a largely non-mechanistic way. When I was here before, there was the confusion of any construction site. That confusion persists, but what remarkable construction over three years! I think of those speeded up pictures of a plant growing and blooming before one’s eyes. Peking looks like a new city, yet much that was there before the revolution remains. Same Fallibility This country is composed of the same fallible people who inhabit any other place. Its governors can be no wiser or more intelligent than any other, and its people no more virtuous. Surely China is as hag-ridden with prejudice and resistance to change as any nation is. I have no firm expectations for the future. But I do find China the most challenging and interesting place I have seen. It seems to be systematically - yet haltingly and questioningly - attempting what few are trying so persistently to do. It seems to want to make life better for everyone, starting from a line we can hardly imagine. With each advance, the society becomes more complicated and the choices more difficult to make. The tensions within the country are bound to increase. At a point that seems long ago, but can only be a few weeks, I met an American student of Chinese, fluent in the spoken and written word, hitchhiking around, living with the people. After nearly two years, she said she feels less sure of anything the longer F&M National Reports Income Net income of $505,000, or 30 cents per share based on an average of 1,674,449 shares outstanding, was recorded by F & M National Corporation for the second quarter. Last year's second quarter net income was $574,600 or 34 cents pe share based on an average of 1,685,719 shares outstanding. Net income for the first six months of this year was, $963,500 or 58 cents per share based on an average of 1,650,593 shares outstanding compared to $1.09 million or 65 cents per share based on 1,685,719 shares outstanding for the same period of 1981. she is here, but that she believes that the positive and the negative balance out. I know only one place where I would disagree with her on the positive side: Rappahannock County. We left China as we entered it, on the train from Canton to Kowloon, Hong Kong. Surely the green, blissful countryside through which we passed is among the most attractive scenes of nature and people in the world. One could spend a trip to China just touring this area traversed in a few hours by a sedate and comfortable train, the seats of which can be turned to allow a direct view as one passes slowly along. People and buffalo work and move through great fields of rice. Meticulously tended vegetable plots and orchards are intersperced by hills to make a harmonious landscape. This area is a lush, tropical one which those of us who had spent two weeks in the desert especially appreciated. Suddenly we reached the border and the change was immediate. Commercialism, modernity * and shanties told us that we had returned to the “West”. Soon high-rise apartments appeared and also everlasting construction, even filling up the edges of the land that borders the bays of Kowloon. It would be romantic and false to deny the terrible toil in field and factory that characterizes life for most of the people of the PRC, and which creates a sense of a world of work close to nature. One is ever conscious of the want of freedom that we so take for granted and so regularly abuse. A tourist could never feel at home in China because one is always treated as a guest and catered to to an embarrassing degree. Charm, service and privilege can lull one into a never-never land. But I think that the people who live in Rappahannock can perhaps understand better than many could the difference between the environment of much of China and that of most American citizens as we contrast our county and say much of Northern Virginia.

REALTY WORLD 9tea/ Estate <£4~ JC 9*, RIALTO* I QUICK SALE QUERY If you list your home for sale with a REALTOR on Monday and he sells it for you on Tuesday, do you think he has earned his commission?

A lot more time, effort and dollars have gone into getting that ideal prospect for you than the 24-hour period would indicate. A quick sale is not a matter of luck or lack of effort. It just happens to be the tip of the iceberg. The major part of that 'iceberg" are the years of education and study in the field of real estate, hundreds of hours of time spent in phone calls, personal visits, interviews and home showing and 'fV r*y''fVIV+v thousands of dollars spent on classified and institutional advertising and' signs to build an inventory of qualified prospects. One of these prospects has been looking for just such a home as yours. It is doubtful that he walked in off the street.

"Farmers making their second cutting should check the re-growth of their alfalfa about a week after cutting to determine if spraying for the potato leafhopper is economically feasible.” Owings has a leaflet available for farmers who wish to check their alfalfa fields for this serious pest. The VPI Department of Entomology cautions that the leafhopper can cause considerable damage both to yield and quality. VPI’s publication, called Integrated Peat Management of Potato Leafhopper in Alfalfa identifies the pest and gives a management routine for its control. Damage symptoms are a stunting of the plants and a yellowing of the leaves, often starting as a yellow wedge at the tip of the leaflet. Reddening of the leaves can also occur. Potato leafhopper feeding can cause up to a 25 percent reduction in protein content and a 50 percent reduction in yield. The potato leafhopper is a small yellowish green insect which feeds on the vascular tissue of the plant. Adult leafhoppers are about oneeighth inch long, with a long narrow body and clear shiny wings. Immature stages, or nymphs, are one-sixteenth - one-eighth inch long and are wingless. Leafhoppers are readily distinguished from other alfalfa insects by their bright color, size, shape, and ability to move about rapidly. Unlike the obvious feeding damage of the alfalfa weevil symptoms of leafhoppei feeding are not apparen dntil serious damage hai already occurred. Both adults and nvmphs insert theii hypodermic syringe-like mouth parts into the plant and remove plant juices. Potato leafhoppers breed on crops and weeds throughout the winter in the gulf states, then migrate northward on wind currents during the spring. Alfalfa fields in Virginia are colonized by leafhopper adults usually during late May and early June. Reproduction occurs and several generations develop during the summer. Potato leafhoppers do not overwinter in Virginia. “Although several natural enemies prey upon the potato leafhopper in alfalfa, damaging levels of leafhopper are often reached, requiring insecticide application or harvest management. Leafhopper infestations are highly variable from field to field and from year to year, therefore monitoring of individual fields is required for effective pest management decision making." Owings has a chart for farmers who know they have an infestation and are wondering if spraying makes economic sense at different stages in the field’s growth. Determining the degree of infestation before serious damage is done involves making a sweep of portions of the field with a net, :harting the number of leafhoppers per sweep as .'ompared to the stem length of the alfalfa, and making a iecision based on these two actors.

Davis St. Phono 825-0481 the use of Imldan and Malathion for control of the leafhopper. The other alternative for farmers with infested fields is harvesting, which removes the damaged stems and allows new growth to begin. Most potato leafhopper nymphs and many adults are killed by harvesting. Those adults that do survive tend to leave the field. Owings recommends checking the stubble a week after harvesting to see if the leafhoppers are present. If they are present in sufficient amounts, then a stubble spray may be indicated. For information on spraying levels, determining when to harvest when leafhoppers are present, and making a decision on when sprays are a sensible economic measure, contact Owings at the Rappahannock Agricultural Extension Office and Joyce Adams.

Inc Membe' Audit Bureau of Circulation At Last As of 11:30 p.m. on Tuesday evening in the last action before adjournment, the Rappahannock school board went the final few feet to the goal line to give the county high school a soccer team, hiring Glenn Davis as coach for 1*18283. It was the culmination of an effort that began five years ago. Aptly, the success came on the heels of the world's biggest sporting event, the finals Sunday of the World Cup soccer matches. We're sure the school board's action will spark cheers from a horde of youngsters who've been waiting a long time to play soccer for their high school. The board must share the ovation with a list of community minded Rappahannock people who paved the way with volunteer work. First and foremost, credit goes to Don Keithley who managed, coached, sponsored and hauled kids to their opening season of competition in Fauquier's junior and adult leagues. Without his dedication and commitment through three years while novice players learned the basics and built enthusiasm for the sport, there would be no high school team. Dennis Fairbrother, Bob Haase and Mike Hubbard all contributed hours of assistance as well. The black and white ball was passed next to Rae Haase whose Nature’s Foods and Cafe sponsored the Rappahannock wild bunch for the past two seasons and to Howard Coon who assumed duties as coach and transportation superintendent, again with help from Dennis Fairbrother. Recognition must also be given to the parents who provided rides back and forth to Vint Hill and Warrenton and added spirit boosting support from the side lines. Finally, credit goes to the boys and girls who perservered, never giving up hope that they would eventually earn a chance to play high school soccer, and who convinced the school board to appropriate the money for a team. It's taken a while but Rappahannock County High School has finally climbed on the soccer bandwagon. We urge students, parents and patrons to be on hand for the opening game and help cheer the soccer Panthers on to victory. - Something Very Special - To the editor: June 29th. was the beginning of something very special. The meeting of eight people at Nature’s Food Cafe was the germination of a s e r v i c e - s u p p o r t - a d v o c a c v group in Rappahannock County for those with special needs - the developmentallv delayed. 1 am convinced that this small group of people will grow in numbers and strength. 1 felt, in that group, the kind of energy which is not self-serving - the type of motivation w hich is necessary for effective community action. Our discussion centered around our county's abilities to serve those in need of special services: mentally retarded, physically handicapped. emotionally disturbed, people. We attempted to identify some services gaps or areas which needed strengthening i.e. early identification and intervention for children 0-2 years old, transportation, community awareness, and a barrier-free location for social activities. The momentum created by this common-interest group led to a concerted effort between Sally Sharp and Camille Harris to begin plans for a social-recreation program which is barrier-free (accessible to those in wheelchairs and others who have difficulty climbing stairs). If you have any further input on this special project call either Sally Sharp at 675-321^ or me at 6753329. We have decided to formalize our group by selecting an organization name at our next meeting which will be held Tuesday, July 27th. All those in attendance are encouraged to bring a friend. All those who couldn’t make it are encouraged to join us next time. We will meet at Nature’s Foods Cafe at 10 a.m. again.

The proposal for establishing a wilderness area in Shenandoah National Park was a primary topic at the Board of Supervisors meeting. Concern was expressed over future water supplies and abandonment of fire trails if the wilderness area is established. re 10 YEARS AGO RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS Rappahannock County Board of ^Supervisors turned down a claim for a slain sheep. The sheep, owned by Walter Horton of Red Oak Mountain, was reportedly killed by a dog. Dog Warden Jack Bruce denied that a dog could have done the extensive damage, maintaining that a bear was the killer. Rappahannock’s Board of Supervisors also granted an exception to the subdivision ordinance following several requests. The Washington Fire Company, which has two prospective buyers, made the request to divide a tract of land into three parcels. The company will sell two and keep one to use for their carnival grounds. Three Rappahannock County girls participated in an All-Comers track and field meet in Winchester. Laverne Summers and Ruby Faye Dunn, both of Washington and both inexperienced in track, logged a total of six wins. Sharon Foster of Flint Hill ran hurdles and the 50 yard dash and placed first in both events. 5 YEARS AGO RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS Rappahannock Supervisors acted on a request from the County Extension Agent, Rap Owings, and asked Virginia Governor Mills Godwin to declare the state of emergency in Virginia because of the most severe drought in nearly a half century. The county's hay cuttings were down by 50 percent apd more than likely there will not be a second cutting of hay. The result of this is that many farmers have reduced the number of cows in each herd because of lack of feed. ■ Our Rappahannock Heritage Letters To The Editor Community Thanked To the editor: We would like to thank the community for supporting our first bake sale which was held last Friday, July 9, at Trinity Episcopal Church.

Konick confirmed that this was the case and apologized for the error. From Both Barrels t The Wilder F actor By GEORGE BOWLES Democrat Special Writer Republican politicans in the state are quietly using a new and potentially effective weapon against their Democratic opposition in this year’s elections. That weapon is the word being given wide circulation in conservative circles that black state Sen. Douglas Wilder of Richmond is now calling the shots in the Democratic party. Indeed, so great is Sen. Wilder’s alleged power in the Robb administration that, according to some of the rumors, he is virtually running the state government. Reports of his political clout grew out of the episode last spring when he threatened to run for the U.S. Senate as an independent because of his objections to the candidacy of Del. Owen Pickett of Virginia Beach. The day after Pickett withdrew from the race. Sen. Wilder dropped the idea of his independent bid. The perception took hold that Sen. Wilder had forced Del. Pickett out of the contest. This perception was quickly stretched to include the proposition that he had some sort of veto power over any potential Democratic Senate candidate. There is no point in recounting here the details of the Pickett fiasco, except to note that Sen. Wilder’s unhappiness with Del. Pickett and the subsequent collapse of the latter’s campaign was more a result of the obvious failure of that campaign than it was the cause of its failure. The Wilder Factor It is certainly true that Sen. Wilder was a factor in Pickett’s withdrawal from the race, but he was only one of many factors. Chief among these was the fact that, in spite of his manifest honesty and many personal talents. Del. Pickett repeatedly proved himself to be ineffectual as Candidate Pickett. Still the perception persists, and is being energetically spread, that it was Sen. Wilder who did him in. In doing so, the word goes, he humbled Gov. Robb and the rest of the Democratic Party leadership. Thus, according to Gov. Robb's and the Democrats’ critics, the party has surrendered to liberal domination and is therefore no longer worthy of support by conservatives. Read liberal as black and the decoded real drift of the message becomes clear. So what is Sen. Wilder’s actual role in the party and what is his relationship to the Robb administration? There is no question that the flamboyant senator is a man of immense influence among Virginia’s one million or so black citizens. Not only that, he is genuinely respected as a member of the state Senate where he is regarded as one of its best orators and debaters. Within the black community he is considered to be a political moderate, and may well be challenged in next year’s Senate primary by Richmond attorney Sa'ad El-Amin. a certifiable black maverick. Political Clout Sen. Wilder is, indeed, one of the leaders of the Democratic party, and he undeniably has considerable political clout. Because of this, he is frequently consulted by the governor and by other state officials who value his advice, not only on matters of concern to the black community, but also on public policy generally. Sen. Wilder is, after all, chairman of the Senate Committee on Transportation, chairman of the Senate Steering Committee, and a member of a number of other important panels. But in all this, he is only one of several dozen other leaders, both black and white, who have similar influence and similar access to the governor and other members of the Commonwealth’s officialdom. Like theirs, his counsel may or may not be persuasive. Also like theirs, it is not controlling. But the rumor that it is controlling will likely flourish during the upcoming political season. It's unusually good whisper campaign material. The fact is. however, that Sen. Wilder’s awesome power in the party and in the administration exists only in the minds of those who, to paraphrase a similar sentiment from a bygone day, believe that one drop of black influence equals black domination. County Loses Its Park Watchdogs By LORRIE YOl!NG Ka|>|>ahaniii»ck Vhk S|hmm»I VI ril«-r Barbara and Stan Thompson came to Rap pahannock County in 1973 as weekend residents seeking peace and quiet. The quest for silence led them to the residence on Oventop Mountain, a place which borders on Shenandoah National Park. It was not until 1977 that the Thompsons became permanent residents. It is with regreat that the Thompsons have left Rappahannock County for a new home that seems to be “just right.” a home in Eugene. Oregon, near their son and all their grand children. The Thompsons openly admit that they dreaded the trip since they drove a U-haul trailer. Part of their luggage was the worry. "What if it breaks down in the middle of the desert?" Although moving is an exhausting experience, both physically and emotionally, which nobody enjoys, it is new places which have enticed the Thompsons to pack up again and again. Since they have been married, they have lived on both coasts, many middle states and overseas in Turkey. Turkey was the turning point in Stan's career since his first teaching job was there. He began at Roberts College, the oldest American University, where he taught nuclear engineering. Barbara also taught at Roberts College during their four year stay. Stan started work as a nuclear engineering con sultant tor a private firm, a position he held for 17 years until his feelings on nuclear energy began to change. When he first entered the field, he saw great potential for nuclear power, but the problem of nuclear waste disposal, the possibility of accidents and other factors altered Stan’s vision of nuclear reactors from beneficial to detrimental. Stan also said he felt that after the Atomic Energy Commission was organized, it created a conflict of interest since the Commission was selling reactors as well as being responsible for safety regulations. It was at this point that he decided to change careers and the Thompsons moved to Turkey. After a four year sojourn in Turkey, the Thompsons returned to the states where they moved to an apartment in D.C.. one block from the White House. While in D.C., Stan taught engineering at Howard University while Barbara counseled at George Washington University. Barbara was also involved in women\ groups dealing with career planning and assertiveness training which she has continued in Rappahannock. The option to hold workshops for women’s groups was one of the factors that was taken into consideration when the Thompsons decided to move to Rappahannock. When asked “Why Rappahahnock?" the response from Barbara was quick and easy, “because we knew Rappahannock was the right place.” After seeing the land on Oventop Mountain they were mesmerized and became intensely interested, “despite good judgement,” as Barbara points out. The Thompsons are probably best known for their outstanding efforts in preventing a proposed land exchange that was to take place between Shenandoah National park and private landowners. It was the Thompsons’ curiosity that pushed them to find out about the logistics of the trade. They discovered that a piece of Oventop Mountain in southern Page County, which is parkland, was to be traded for a piece of nonparkland in Greene County. After the plan was uncovered, action had to be taken and taken quickly, Barbara recalled. From the start of this six week project, the Thompsons were under pressure to organize petitions, lobbying and letters before the elapse of the deadline for public comment on the land trade. The Thompsons found, with great pleasure, that people in the county were quick to help and more than willing to support their effort in any possible way. Through this cooperative fight, the parkland was saved and the whole community remained able to enjoy Oventop Mountain, Barbara noted. When asked how this same incident could be avoided in the future, Barbara responded, “One must keep alert as to what’s happening in the community.” She went on to say that “there should be more openness about plans, especially since more plans are being developed." Upon reflection, Stan says that a superior asset is to have the Rappahannock News on “your side." He continued by stating that "The Rappahannock News is a valuable asset in the community because it (the paper) told exactly what was going on and alerted people to the problem,” after which the paper continued to give good coverage by keeping abreast of developments. -R*pp*haaaockNmPtiMo/Lorri.Y«wv DESPITE THEIR DESIRE to stay, Barbara and Stan Thompson have left Rappsiuinnock and the house they built themselves with wood from their forest. Since Rappahannock have lost it’s “park watchdog”, we all need to be more alert as to wnat s happening in the community,” says Mrs. Thompson.

Jenkins Sentence Suspended (Continued from Page 1) the judge, Jenkins described himself as a part-time painter currently unemployed. Close To Death While acknowledging the sincerity of Jenkins' conversion to Christianity, commonwealth’s attorney Douglas Baumgardner stressed the seriousness of the charges against the defendant. He noted that Jenkins put four bullet holes into an occupied pick-up truck. "One even pierced a tool box and struck the back of the truck "where a woman passenger was sitting, Baumgardner said. "She came very close to losing her life.” The defendant’s religious conversion "cannot and should not alter the court’s disposition of this case,” he argued, citing the "mind boggling precedence” such action would create. Baumgardner argued that Jenkins should be incarcerated and if part of his sentence is suspended and he is imprisoned in jail rather than the penitentiary as the probation officer recommended, his probation should be conditional upon continuance of alcohol counseling. In conclusion, the commonwealth’s attorney acknowledged that disposition of the case was complicated by "lack of adequate jail facilities” in the county. Requesting probation for his client, Albrecht emphasized that Jenkins’ offense was potentiality serious but the potentiality was “fortunately not realized” since none of the three passengers iti the vehicle were injured in the shooting. He maintained that Jenkins has made a dramatic adjustment since September 26, 1981. “It’s not a ‘flash-in-the-pan’ change in attitude.” he added. “I’m pleased to hear from you and your pastor that your life has altered substantially. I believe your feelings are genuine. . . But under the laws of this state, you must be held accountable for your past offenses,” said Judge Robertson, sentencing Jenkins to three years in the penitentiary- He suspended all but six months of that time, however, and placed the defendant on supervised probation for three years, requiring that he make restitution for damages to the pick-up truck, pay court costs and continue in an alcohol counseling program under the direction of his probation officer. Robertson added that he will entertain a motion that lenkins be put on a work release program if a job can be found, an option which will allow the Washington man to serve his time in a local jail. At the close of the sentencing hearing, sheriff Buntin contacted Fauquier ail and secured permission to incarcerate the prisoner in the Warrenton facility'.

He suspended the time and placed the man on three years supervised probation conditional upon his participation in psychiatric and alcohol treatment programs as specified by the probation officer. “I want you to make it," the judge told the defendant. "I wouldn't put you on probation if I didn't think you could make it,” Robertson said, emphasizing that he would impose the prison time if Jackson violated terms of his probation. Mathew Dean Hitt of Amissville offered no contest to habitual offender charges. In response, Robertson directed that an order be entered revoking Hitt’s operator’s license for ten years, effective July 12. Nine Months Revocation On an appeal from a General District Court conviction of driving under the influence, Lonnie Gene Clatterbuck of Sperryville entered a guilty plea. Baumgardner noted that Clatterbuck had also been convicted of resisting arrest after he used abusive language and struggled with deputy Mark Wittl as he was apprehended. As a result of the aggravated offenses, Baumgardner argued that the one year license suspension plus fine given Clatterbuck in General District Court should be sustained. Attorney Bill Fletcher countered that his client hadn’t been involved in an accident and needs an operator’s license to continue his job with the Virginia Department of Highways. He asked for a one year license loss' with six months suspended on condition that Clatterbuck participate in alcohol counseling. Baumgardner noted that the defendant had already been enrolled once in ASAP and on this most recent driving while intoxicated arrest had a .20 blood alcohol reading. “With this court, the blood test is largely determinative on how long the suspension is.” Robertson said, fining Clatterbuck $300 plus court costs and revoking his license for nine months. Johnny Franklin Miller failed to appear for his appeal on a driving while intoxicated conviction in General District Court and was given a $250 fine plus $35 court costs with license suspended for six months. Roy Lee Knighting of Castleton withdrew his appeal on conviction of failure to yield right-of-way charges and was fined $25 plus $33 court costs.

Board Still Sitting Supervisor chairman Dick Latham noted that the Equalization Board, charged with equalizing values fixed on property in the county’s recent 100 percent fair market value assessment, will continue in office until December, 1982. “They’ve decided not to schedule any more meetings (with property owners) until there are enough requests filed with the Commission of Revenue to warrant one," Latham said. In other action, the supervisors voted unanimously to approve a resolution allowing the Rappahannock County Library to receive $5,004 in state aid to public libraries They set a public hearing for August 2 on a request from Luther Payne to rezone Payne’s garage lot on Route 211 near Washington from agriculture to commercial. The supervisors also agreed to wait until work begins on the jail renovation before soliciting bids to put an exit door to the fire escape from the second floor of the county courthouse. A recent letter from the state fire marshal read at Wednesday’s meeting notes that the door must swing in the direction of exit travel and have a single latch readily opened without key. The style may be single, double or dutch door. Currently, the only access to the fire escape is through a window, an arrangement that violates the state fire code. ++++ Money is the seed of noney, and the first guinea is sometimes more difficult to require than the second nillion. —Jean Jacques Rousseau ++++ Stubbornness is the energy >f fools. — Rappahannock N«*w» Phoio/D. Hutchinson RAPPAHANNOCK YOUNGSTERS from Sallie Brandt’s earth science class were introduced to the history of the area’s earliest inhabitants on a field trip to the Thunderbird Museum and Archeological Park, located just outside Front Royal. Thunderbird recently added sunset tours to the long list of activities offered at the -Sunset Tours Sunset Jours of the Thunderbird Museum and Archeological Park are being offered on Saturday evenings by Dr. Robert K. Evans, director of programs at the Museum.

Robert Eastham inquired if the board could ask to have the rent dropped on the bus shop garage, now owned by the highway department as the result of a condemnation suit last year. The board didn't include money in its upcoming budget for rent of the building since a new combination central officebus shop was expected to be ready by August, Eastham said, adding that the construction project is behind schedule and may not be completed for six months. “That request is in order," Askew replied, but suggested the board ask that the bus hop rent be cancelled in a separate letter from the communication agreeing to donate right-of-way. In dealing with the first items on last Tuesday’s agenda, the school board put an end — at least for one year — to their marathon sessions that have regularly dragged on until 1 and 2 a.m. Reorganizing for the coming year. the board voted unanimously to continue holding its meetings on the second Tuesday of the month in the elementary school library at 7:30 p.m. — and ending at 11:30 p.m. But the unanimity was shattered when the board members addressed what will happen next if they haven’t finished all necessary business by the time the clock chimes the magic hour. The vote was 3-1 with Eastham opposed and Nancy Reeve obstaining to come back tho following night, Wednesday at 7:30 p.m., to finish anything left undone. Also in the reorganization, Beverly Massie was re-elected chairman, Nancy Reeve vicechairman, Gerald Lysik clerk, Robert Estabrook assistant clerk, Massie the representative to Piedmont regional school and Nelson Lane the representative to the educational television board. Superintendent Estabrook reported that Mosely-Hening architectural firm is currently doing a thorough needs assessment related to the construction of the combination bus shop garage and central office and will present the study with options and dollar estimates in two weeks. The board agreed to hold a special meeting on July 29 at 7:30 p.m. in the elementary school library for the purpose of translating the MoselyHening data into bid specifications. At Eastham’s request, the superintendent was also directed to investigate the board’s insurance coverage, focusing on whether occurrence policies or claimsmade policies provide the best protection, and report back to the board at its August meeting.

Prosecuting the case was Doug Baumgardner, Commonwealth Attorney. Elliott DeJarnette, defended Coates. Donnie Ray Coates was accused of forging a check that was written on a US Treasury account, made out to Curtis L. Johnson of Culpeper. Johnson works for the US Government in Culpeper in the Soil Conservation Department. He testified that he received the paycheck of $432.43 on June 25, 1981 and put it in his pocket. After work he went home, after stopping at the 7-11 in Culpeper. When he arrived home Johnson went to take the check from his pocket and it was gone. He re-traced the ground that he had covered but could not find the check. The next morning Johnson put a stop on the check. Upon viewing. Commonwealth’s exhibit one, the cancelled check, Johnson identified it as his own paycheck. He stated “It’s my name, but not my signature." The next witness was E. Graham Hackley, an Amissville merchant who testified that he received the check on July 5, 1981 from Donnie Ray Coates who represented himself as Curtis L. Johnson. When Coates came into the store, he was accompanied by a woman, Mrs. Frances Faulkner, who was a customer of Hackley's and had been for 9 years. Faulkner presented Coates to Hackley as her cousin and said they were looking for boots. After choosing the boots, a shirt and some groceries Coates pulled out the US Treasury check. Coates signed Johnson's name to the back and asked that the amount purchased "Farming. . .a kind of cc the hand of God." be taken out of the amount of the check. Because Hackley was familiar with Faulkner, he did not request any identifcation. Hackley stated after questioning that Coates was not introduced as Johnson, but because he signed Johnson’s name to the check, Hackley assumed that Coates was indeed Curtis L. Johnson. Since Coates lives in Culpeper Deputy James Michael Holt, of the Culpeper County Sheriff s Department was called into the case. After speaking to Hackley, Dep. Holt discovered that Coates had been accompanied by Faulkner and got in touch with Coates through Faulkner. The jury was asked to leave the courtroom while Holt stated that after confronting Coates with the charges, Coates responded that he preferred not to make a statement. After this statement the jury was asked to return. Dep. Holt continued to relay the course of events of April 15, 1982. He had obtained handwriting samples from Coates, who had come in voluntarily to the Culpeper Sheriff's Department. Holt submitted the handwriting samples to the Secret Service for analysis. After submitting these samples Holt turned the evidence over to Rappahannock County because he determined that no crime had been committed in Culpeper County. Richard A. Dusek of the Secret Service presented the most damaging evidence against Coates. Dusek is an examiner of questioned documents such as savings bonds, threats against the president, and check forgeries. After many hours of comparison and analysis, Dusek determined that the author of the forged check was probably the same as the author of the handwritine ntinual miracle wrought by Benjamin Franklin Julie Burke Is All-Star Performer (Continued from Page 1) by lights, “just like the stars use.” While she wasn’t nervous about singing before 3,000 people. Julie was concerned about singing into an attached microphone. “I’d never used that kind before. It wasn't the best in the world. It cracked every once in a while and I think ijt took a little away from my performance.” But the judges were impressed despite the oc casional “crack.” Julie’s “Wouldn’t It Be Loverly?” was one of 15 state acts chosen from the 54 in the competition and one of only four vocal acts picked. She’ll perform with the Young Dominions for the next year, including a show at Rappahannock County High School this coming Saturday and two at the State Fair later this summer. She’ll do her solo of the “My Fair Lady” number as well as singing with the group's chorus. Next year and the year after, Julie hopes to climb the ladder again from local to district to state "Share-TheFun” and then pursue pierforming arts studies at a small college following graduation. After that, who knows? She's hoping for a career on the Broadway. “1 don’t know if I'm good enough to make a go of it but I'll give it my best shot!" the young troupier concluded. Federal Land Bank Has Money To Loan (Continued from Page 1) Interest rates on loans are determined by interest rates on short-term bonds which the Federal Land Bank buys on the New York Stock Exchange. At the end of each month the bonds are sold. The bonds sold at the end of June went for 14.45 percent. As a result of this high rate, the Land Bank’s rate will go up correspondingly, but not “drastically,” according to Henry. Since the Land Bank can offer such low rates they |—FOOT FACTS Dr. Bruce Vogel Podiatrist Foot Specialist HOME SURGERY A REAL HAZARD! Many people perform a type of "home surgery" on themselves for a variety of reasons. They feel that they would prefer to do it themselves as the doctor hurts more They feel that the medical costs today are too high They don't need a doctor when they, can do it themselves There are many dangers in this type of thinking Mr st important of all patients cannot diagnose their illnesses or the adequacy of their circulation, two factors which are very important in healing Secondly, they cannot repair an ingrown nail or other problem as adequately or correctly as a physician Lastly, they are not using sterile instruments despite the fact that they use disinfectants or alcohol.

Although the purpose of the meeting was to acquaint the realtors with the Land Bank and its policies, some local realtors expressed the opinion that there was more to the meeting than previously stated. The consensus among the realtors was that the Federal Land Bank has money which it “needs to get rid of’ and the Organization wants to make Rappahannockers aware of this. The local realtors attending the session believe this is a good sign for purchasers since they are practically assured of a loan from the Federal Land Bank, Henry stated, “We don’t make money unless you all (the realtors) make money,” and realtors don’t make money without making sales.

Dusek stated that there is never any way to determine positively whether the author of two docnments is the same because every person has a certain style and all writing has some variation, “No one person will write exactly the same,” Dusek said. When Coates took the stand his testimony differed from the other witnesses in many respects. Coates said that the check had been forged by a cousin of his, Peggy Bailey, now deceased. Coates stated that Bailey had given him the check to cash. Coates said that Bailey was known for her forgeries and that she was the culprit. This statement implied that Coates did not sign the check in front of Hackley, as Hackley testified. Coates also testified that he had tried to cash the check in two different places but, without proot, was unsuccessful. In closing arguments, Baumgardner emphasized that the cousin Peggy Bailey was ‘‘very conveniently deceased,” and that it was “A bit too convenient that he (Coates) would go out and get one (check) that was forged from someone who is now dead.” Baumgardner also pointed out that Coates had broken his promise to Bailey by buying things for himself with her money, ‘‘You (Coates) strike a bargain with your cousin, then YOU go out and spend the money." Elliott DeJarnette closed with the argument that Dusek could only say that Coates was probably, but not positively, the author. DeJarnette also questioned the validity of Hackley’s testimony because of his age. He said that Hackley's memory could be incorrect, especially since the incident occured over a year ago. DeJarnett’e main point throughout was that Coates was trying to free himself from this charge by voluntarily giving handwriting samples. As DeJarnette continued he asked the jury that, if they did find Coates guilty, not to be too harsh on him. After the jury had received their instructions they were dismissed. After a short time one juror came out to ask “How do we sentence him?” After a total of 45 minutes, the jury of 3 men and 9 women read their statement of guilty on both accounts and sentenced Coates to 2 years in jail, and a $2000 fine. couinrer nontz ROBERT METCALFE QENERAL CONTRACTOR New Homes Cabins Additions Remodeling Box 147 Flint Hill, Va. 703*675*3897 Va.
