Rappahannock News, November 11, 1982

Deer Hunt Canceled Smithsonian officials agreed Tuesday to cancel the proposed deer hunt at the Conservation and Research Center near Front Royal. The hunt was originally planned to control the population of white-tailed deer that live within the Center’s boundaries and harbor a parasite that has proved fatal to some of the Center’s more exotic animals. Protests from national wildlife groups forced postponement of the hunt and prompted a hearing on November 4 by the congressional subcommittee (hat oversees the Smithsonian Institute's appropriations. Opponents of the hunt appeared before the committee to suggest alternative measures for dealing with the deer problem. Zoo officials and representatives from the Virginia Commission on Game and Inland Fisheries argued that none of the proposed alternatives presented a practical solution. With a majority of the subcommittee, chaired by Rep. Sidney Yates of Illinois, opposed to the hunt, subcommittee members and Smithsonian representatives met November 9 to hammer out an acceptable alternative. The new proposal calls for the relocation of the deer and construction of chain fences and gravel barriers to make three deer-proof compounds at an expense of $400,000 to $600,000. The fences for 1,500 of the center’s 3,100 acres will cost about $350,000, an amount that the committee agreed to add to the zoo's budget in a session next week. The relocation expense and procedure has not been worked out. At the hearing, zoo officials expressed doubt that the deer would survive a relocation effort. Members of humane groups protesting the hunt offered help in the relocation effort. The Center held a hunt in November 1981, opening the grounds to local hunters chosen by lottery and instructed in humane hunting practices. Last year’s hunt attracted virtually no public attention. School Board Receives Booster Club Donation By THERESA REY NOLDS Ha|>|uihann«K*k \rw* Staff 1 rilrr At its monthly meeting November 9, the Rappahannock School board agreed to high school principal Robert Chappell’s request that they accept the $700 that the RCHS boosters had raised for the science department from their successful Friendship Follies. Chairman Beverly Massie directed that the boosters also be written a letter of thanks. Massie read a letter from Robert L Judd restating his interest in purchasing the old Scrabble school building. His proposal, based on a similar transaction he had made in California, was to purchase the materials for the sum of one dollar in return for carrying them off. Judd said that he would be moving to Virginia in the early spring and was looking for an appropriate building site. Massie reminded the board that ownership of the land involved was in dispute and that she had instructed Judd to correspond directly with Commonwealth’s Attorney Douglas Baumgardner. Superintendent Robert Estabrook reported on the progress of the insurance committee in its search to find an independent consultant to evaluate the present school port 'io and make recommendati Wakefield Board Member Robert Eastham said that two out of the three insurance consultants found by the committee, composed of Eastham. Estabrook and Nelson Lane, had responded. Discussion of the consultants' proposals was postponed until executive session. The board also heard reports from the index salary scale committee: assistant superintendent Gerald Lysik, Lane and Nancy Reeve. Lysik said that the committee had not been able to make sufficient progress to report to the board. Lane asked that Grand Jury Returns Six True Bills The Rappahannock County Grand Jury deliberating November 8 returned true bills on each of the six cases certified to it, including a sealed “Jane Doe” indictment. Commonwealth’s Attorney Douglas Baumgardner said that the Jane Doe charge, which was not specified, was the first step in a potentially significant investigation of drug-related activity in Rappahannock County. The investigation was conducted by a special unit of state police based in Culpeper in conjunction with local law enforcement authorities. The drug-related case was set for the January term date to pursue possible extradition, Baumgardner said. The grand jury considers sealed cases, with no public preliminary hearing or public notification of suspect or charges, when it is thought that the suspect might leave the area if the charges were known. The other true bills returned by the jury were: Russell McKinley Racer, operating motor vehicle after being put on habitual offender status; court appearance November 18. Clarence Anthony Stewart, breaking and entering; unlawful possession of credit cards, petit larceny; trial Dec. 10. Robert Quintin Fincham, 9 counts arson; court appearance November 18. Robert Clarence Martin, arson, court appearance November 18. Jennie May Finchum, welfare fraud, court appearance November 18. further discussion of the index salary concept by category by pursued in executive session. ‘‘I don’tunderstand the need for executive session in this case," Massie said. "Some of these categories have only one person." Reeve responded. “We need to protect their privacy.” Massie suggested that the committee continue work on the index salary concept and make a report in December. Eastham requested that the committee present to the board the total financial impact of the index salary concept, compared with continuing in the present system after allowing for inflation. "We’re doing this for ten years back and ten years ahead,” Lane said. “We’ll have a full comparison for the board to examine." E^>iauruo& iuiu me uoaiu that the open house scheduled for next week was “in place” although he said he was unfamiliar with the details. Rappahannock Education Association representative Richard Smith gave the details of the open house in the Elementary School. Massie suggested that the board members make themselves available to parents and teachers during the week. Estabrook said that he was unprepared to report on the activity fund balance issue raised at the last school board meeting, and agreed to let the board know its resolution by memorandum. In his transportation report Lysik said that he would advertise again the surplus vehicles and sewing machine not claimed at the last opening of bids. He told the board that a new bus and special education vehicle were now at use at the school. Eastham said that he had heard complaints that there was one bus in service that had as many as 75 children at times. “We need to reduce (Continued on Page 2) Bag Sale Scheduled The Washington Thrift Shop will hold super bargain bonanza days on November 10, 12, 17 and 19 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., offering everything that can be stuffed into a brown grocery bag for S2.

Permit Granted To Spectra School Don Chandler took his dream of an architectural school to the Rappahannock County Board of Zoning Appeals last Friday and came away with a special use permit to offer practical instruction in architecture, design, drafting and construction. “Space where one might experience creation through architecture" was Chandler’s esoteric definition of what he hopes to provide at Spectra. Space where students “can develop spiritually, mentally and physically." Located on Route 522 at the old Bru Wood farm north of Flint Hill, Spectra is planned to be both “an adjunct to school” and "an intregal part of the community," according to Chandler. He intends to provide students with actual hands-on experience in buiicling. “something universities do not have the capacity for." Chandler, a practicing architect for 15 years, told the BZA members that the seven bedrooms in the house on the 65 acre farm can be converted to dormitories. He added that he envisions a large abandoned apple processing plant on the site as "a catalyst for learning and instruction." Students can transform it into something they can use. remodeling the building into space for housing and teaching, he said. "I’d like to see the students build their own environment rather than be given their environment." Chandler explained. maintaining that they will build self-development and pride and, at the same time, "learn how to do things." He reported that he intends to have Spectra certified as soon as possible. "It’s a very slow process. We have to prove ourselves before certification. . . I’m now working with University of Virginia's and VPI's architectural departments to have them grant credit for courses taken through Spectra.” Chandler said he intends to be one of the instructors at Spectra which, in addition to serving a school, will also be a practicing architectural firm. He noted that Will Hoare. a landscape architect in Flint Hill, wants to take a very active part in the innovative school. Others who have already agreed to instruct include a sculptor who is currently head of Old Dominion's art department and Not Putnam, local blacksmith, who has 14 years teaching experience. Chandler said. He added that he has commitments from other architects to lecture. "We're looking for teachers in almost anything—from pottery to reading.” he said, emphasizing that Spectra will offer a program for "the total individual." Part of that program will be community projects, particularly in historic restoration. Chandler told the BZA. He assured the board that he will come back for the necessary permits to build (Continued on Page 2) Farm Manager Shot From ’Dozer An apparent right-of-way fight ended with the death of a Flint Hill farm manager early Tuesday morning, November 9. Ranee Spellman, a Culpeper County native who has worked for the past three years as manager of Patricia Saltonstall's Points of View Farm on Route 729, was shot and killed while widening a road with a bulldozer. The road was an existing subdivision access to a lot owned by Mr. and Mrs. Roger Kidwell and three lots owned by Ms. Saltonstall. Spellman was working on the section through the Kidwell's property when the shooting occurred. The Kid wells and Ms. Saltonstall were involved in a right-of-way dispute over the road that was scheduled for hearing in Rappahannock's circuit court on Wednesday, November 10. According to reports, Spellman was armed when the incident occurred at approximately 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday. He was carrying a handgun and had a rifle behind him on the bulldozer. Neither weapon had been fired. Spellman was felled by a rifle shot in the right chest and his body has been taken to Fairfax Hospital for an autopsy. As of Wednesday morning, no charges had been filed or arrests made in connection with the shooting death. A preliminary investigation at the scene was conducted by Sheriff W. A. Buntin. Deputy John Henry Woodward and Trooper R. A. Baines who all arrived just minutes after the shooting occured. Commonwealth's attorney Douglas Baumgardner is handling all inquiries into the case. Law enforcement personnel have been instructed not to comment on the incident until the investigation is completed. BZA Extends Dump Permit By DAPHMK HLTCHINSON Kaiipah.innoH, >,■», » rj,,.r Awarding high marks to the county dump operation, Rappahannock's board of zoning appeals voted unanimously on Friday for a five year extension of the sanitary landfill permit granted five years ago to Community Trash and Clifton Clark. The five-year period is contingent, however, upon determination by the State Bureau of Solid Waste Management and Vector Control that the site is adequate to handle the county's trash for that length of time. The location on Route 621 near Woodville is invisible from the road and beyond sight distance of all but possibly one residence, making it “as remote and discrete a place for a landfill operation as one could find in the county,” said BZA chairman Lee Bird. "It certainly looks well kept." agreed James Swindler, adding that he had noticed neither odor nor loose trash during an on-site inspection. "It’s cleaner than a lot of places along Route 211." On behalf of the Clarks, attorney Bill Fletcher presented petitions signed by 90 residents of StonewallHawthorne District supporting the permit extension. In addition, the board noted receipt of letters from Thomas Orange, Nelson Lane and James J. Kilpatrick, all property owners in the vicinity, in favor of the extension. When the dump permit was granted originally in February, 1977, Kilpatrick wrote the BZA, expressing support for the landfill at its site 0.4 mile from his home but only for a two-year period. In a letter dated this September, however, the nationally syndicated columnist wrote that he had no objection to continuance, noting that he hadn’t seen ‘‘the least ^ign” of the dump’s existence in the past five years. On the other side of the issue, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Maldover, in a letter to the BZA, objected to the landfill, maintaining that its noise, odor and traffic constituted a nuisance. Adjacent property owners William Hancock, Roberts o/en and John Schafer alsj# wrote, objecting ill extension of the dump permit. Fletcher fold the BZA that Community Trash, the company that maintains and empties the dumpsters scattered around Rappahannock, has a two-year contract with the board of supervisors to handle the county's trash. If the county doesn’t continue that contract, then the Clarks won’t allow Community Trash to dispose of waste at the landfill on their property, said Fletcher. Inspected Monthly The attorney reported that, according to Clark, state health department officials who inspect the landfill on a monthly basis have ruled it adequate for five to eight more years. He acknowledged that he did not have those findings in writing but maintained that a state agency review of the landfill’s adequacy was unnecessary since the state will close the dump if it’s not operated properly. Fletcher said he had gone to the Culpeper office of the health department for copies of the monthly inspection reports only to be told they were kept on file in Rappahannock. Checking here, he was informed the reports are filed in Orange. Fletcher added that he hadn’t pursued his search further. In response to additional questions regarding possible effects of the landfill operation, the attorney noted there is no evidence of any stream pollution in the area. "It doesn’t seem like there would be any problem,” he said, basing his opinion on the soil types at the dump site. In the past five years, only 1V« acres of the eight acre tract has been used for trash disposal, according to Fletcher. "In another five years, it would be appropriate for the board to review the landfill operation... Anything less than a five year period, the review would be a nuisance on Mr. Clark’s part,’’ Fletcher maintained. Bird suggested that the BZA ask the state health department to re-evaluate the landfill site and determine how much longer it can be used and what limitations, if any, should be observed. Fletcher countered that no matter what time limit the BZA sets on the permit—five or 25 years—“the state could come in next month and say it doesn’t meet their requirements and close it down.” He mainlined that to relocate the dump would cost the county “a great deal more money ’ in transportation expenses. With the county’s contract with Community Trash extending until June. 1984, “we’re obviously not going to stop the landfill operation at this point," noted Bird. Agreeing to ask the health department's Bureau of Solid Waste and Vector Control to update its original evaluation of the landfill site, the BZA voted to extend the dump permit for five years or such shorter period as the state may deem appropriate. Bed And Breakfast The BZA issued a permit for the county’s third "bed (Continued on Page 2) Manookian Makes Medium The Message By DAPH1NK HI TCH1VSON RapiMhannocV V», Staff « ritt.r “The way I communicate is with paints and pencils — I’m not so good with words," insists Lois Moore Manookian, Rappahannock artist whose works went on display last weekend at Washington’s Middle St. Gallery. What Lois communicates through her paintings of Rappahannock's fields and forests, its barns and streams, is a feeling of peace and pleasure, a sense of comfort with her surroundings. “But there’s another side to me. It does come out," Lois said. It shows in the oil of a solitary, brooding figure gazing out of a window onto a faraw ay farm field. “My view of life is that it's pretty hairy. But what I see that I want to paint, what I want to reproduce, is on the pastoral side." Manookian is a late comer to the art world, in practice if not in spirit. She always wanted to be an artist but first she answered the demands of raising a family. “Once or twice a year. I'd do something — just on my owtv— when the kids were young, before I went back to school. But there was a time when I had three children under four years of age. It put me in a foul mood to be interrupted!" she recalled, smiling now at those earlier disruptions of the artist at work. And disruptions came one after the other when their children were toddlers...and continued when they reached school age...and continued through their grammar school years...and continued \yhen they were teenagers. It wasn’t until the youngest left for college that Manookian began to devote her energies seriously to art. She believes art to be “instinctive, intuitive" but also that instinct and intuition must be trained. So she went back to school at George Washington University for a degree in fine arts. “It took me a long time to decide to make the commitment. When the youngest went off, I didn't just say, ‘Ah, ha! Now I can do it.’ It’s a very exposed position, being an artist. It’s not easy." As difficult as it was to decide to paint, the act of artistic creation is sometimes even harder for Manookian. Some of her works have been years in the finishing. The man at the window started with a figure three yeans ago. But once she had the figure, she didn't know where to go next. This April, in a spurt of inspiration, she added the farm fields. “Sometimes 1 run into a barrier. So 1 just put the work aside. There’s no point in pushing it. It took me three years to get what 1 wanted in that window." Other canvases seem almost to fill themselves under her brush. An oil of the Foster brothers' barn — that familiar scene to those who travel Route 522 between Flint Hill and Front Royal — went from start to finish in a matter of davs. And it's no less effective for being an inspiration rather than a scene she sweated and toiled over for months. The buddings look so real — you expect to feel barn wood splinters and cement rather than smooth canvass under your fingertips. Lois began working with silk screens, doing primarily abstract art. "Silk screening is a tedious, laborious process — which 1 enjoy, by the wav. But 1 wanted to do more than one or two pieces a year," she noted. New Medium She switched to oils and pencils and. at the same time, her style altered. "It changed for reasons I can’t explain.” she said, shrugging her shoulders. “As I went on. more and more 1 looked on things in a representational way. I believe that style is a continually evolving process. 1 don't know where I’m going but I certainly don't want to (Continued on Page 3)

Another Grand Night Of Theatre AtRCHS It is rare when high school actors are able to handle comedy effectively. Youngsters too often lack the all-important timing of polished professionals. Their punch lines are frequently inaudible and they have difficulty maintaining the deadpan expression necessary for comedv delivers. In return, the audience's response is more polite than side-splitting, the laughs prompted by the mistakes of young thespians rather than their attempts at deliberate humor.

The story line for the three-act mystery comedy had all the convolutions of a suspense thriller. An eccentric old lady. Miss Cornelia Van Gorder. rents a rambling country house, the home of the president of the local bank who died just a week before the discovery of thousands of dollars missing from his financial institution. Suspicion centers on the bank teller, missing along with the money. Coincidentally, the young man is also the secret fiance of Miss Van Gorder's niece who hires her sweetheart as gardener for the rented estate, keeping his identity hidden. Threatening letters wrapped around rocks and tossed through the windows, mysterious intruders and strange lights prompt Miss Van Gorder to call in a detective to investigate. But it’s the feisty old lady who exposes both the rock thrower and the bank thief. In the process, she solves two murders, finds a secret room and the stolen money and unmasks the bat. a notorious criminal who has managed to elude and baffle the police. , Gray haired and i bespectacled.

When she eased her old bones in and out of chairs, the audience could amost hear the joints creak. But Ginger endowed Miss Van Gorder with more than just the irascibility of the elderly. She projected a warm and loving — though slightly testy — personality of someone who frets with maternal conconem over the happiness of her young niece and worries about suspicions misdirected at the innocent, an honest woman who sees through sham and pretense.

Clarkson said he can accommodate approximately 25 overnight guests at present in the fivebedroom farmhouse and adjacent two-story cabin and will have space for 10 to 15 more guests if outbuildings are converted. Asked about water and sewer facilities, he said health department inspectors will approve the water once an ultraviolet purification system—which Clarkson already has on hand—is installed. He acknowledged * that he didn’t know the size of the septic field but added that he has encountered no difficulties with sewage disposal. The BZA issued the permit for the bed and breakfast inn, limiting overnight guests to 25 and requiring verification of health department approval on water and sewer. In an issue carried over from the previous month’s meeting, the board members set six as the maximum number of video games, pinball machines and other electronic amusements classified as an accessory use and therefore permitted without permits. A special use permit will continue to be required, however, for more than six commercial amusements or for video games and pinball machines that are installed elsewhere than in an existing business. Chairman Bird also noted that in reviewing an application for commercial amusements from an existing general store or restaurant, the BZA can decide that more than six game machines still qualify as an accessory use and can then eliminate the permit requirement on an individual case basis. In other action, the board validated special use perrrrtfs granted last month. Advertisement for the BZA's October public hearing was inadequate, leaving the permits issued at that time open to challenge. Young Dominion shows, who has the poise and assurance of a professional actress. As Miss Van Gorder’s pretty niece, she delivered her lines in a conversational tone, speaking the words instead of reciting them. Relying on more than her lines to set the message across, she conveyed her worry over her sweetheart’s predicament with a shoulder slump and hesitating, dejected walk. Special accolades also go to Kristi Johnson. As carping, grouchy Lizzie Allen, Miss Van Gorder’s housekeeper and companion of 20-odd years, she captured the essence of the kind of friendship that grows between mistress and servant, social unequals who sometimes end up switching positions after spending a lifetime together. Kristi was alternately chiding, fearful and solicitous, helping her employer navigate around the house and urging her to leave the dangers of their new country home but then complaining "You’re just as bad as all the rest of them.

Massie charged Lysik with reporting back to the board at its December meeting. In reviewing the cafeterial report, Estabrook pointed out that the October 1982 report for both schools reflects a total of 631 lunches served per day, or an increase of 143 lunches each day over October of last year. In his attendance report, Estabrook asked that a request from parents of school-age children that the children be excused from school attendance be considered in executive session. Eastham cautioned Estabrook that transfers to other schools be followed up to ascertain that they did result in students attending those schools. The superintendent agreed to do this. After a caution from Eastham that the Rappahannock Newt remember the exceptions to the Freedom of Information Act, the board retired to a oneand-one-half hour executive session. In open session again, the board voted to appoint an 8th grade coach, hire two substitute teachers, expell a student from school with the provision of an August, 1983 readmission, application; hire the Richmond Firm of Industrial Insurance management to review the school insurance portfolio for a fee of under $1,000; and authorize the superintendent to get three estimates for a well to be drilled at the site of the new school board officebus shop. Without specifying the author or content of a letter read in executive session, Massie repeated a motion affirming the school board’s position on freedom of information, with concurrence by all board members.

Shannon was a favorite with kids in the audience. An impressed second grader summed up why: "I like the way she talks the best.” Disheveled and slouching, a cigarette stub clenched between his teeth. Bob Baines was the epitome of a hardboiled detective from the Sam Spade school. His rapid fire delivery of jokes, managed without cracking a smile, drew some of the evening’s biggest laughs. Pulling off a casting coup, director Don Bomberger had Tom Eastham, Susan Dennis’ real life boyfriend, in the part of her on-stage fiance. As Brooks, the suspect bank teller, Tom projected embarrassment at his dilemma and sincerity in his protestations of innocence and in his declarations of affection for Miss Dennis. Jim McCullough, tne detective called by Miss Van Gorder, spent most of his time tied and gagged off stage, his place taken by the nefarious bat. But when the bruised and confused young man staggered into the spotlight, nursing his aching head, he left the audience without any doubts that he was suffering from amnesia. Tod Robinson hit just the right note of simpering pomposity with his portrayal of the sneaky doctor in cahoots with the bank robber. Charles Johnson, the grasping nephew of the dead bank president, was himself sent too the great beyond in Act II. His demise brought no tears from the audience how had been convinced by Charles that his character, was a callous and unfeeling scoundrel. In addition to the cast, credit goes to the lighting and sound crew for creating a realistic thunderstorm and to the set designers who produced an illusion of a grand estate from just one living room. And as always, director Don Bomberger deserves a special round of applause for being the driving force behind another truly enjoyable evening of theatre at RCHS. This time, however, he came from the audience to take his bow. For once, the director was able to watch a performance, his place as stage manager ably filled by Terri Tylek. In her first production, the young lady did a first rate job of keeping everything going smoothly behind the curtains. atufDay Care CenterfOnc.

—Pots, Quilts And Ax Handles - By LYT WOOD Rappahann.M-k >™, Special Writer Our West Virginia studies of contemporary mountain life did not overlook the fine arts, crafts, and cottage industries endemic to Appalachia. We were introduced to the Carpenter brothers, two hard-working, resourceful people who are expert craftsmen. Loy and Dempsey Carpenter live, respectively, at Hacker Valley and Replete, West Virginia. Together, they operate a split and sawn rail business. They are also potters. At their homes and shops, our class learned the true meaning of the phrase "dirt cheap." “Potting,” our instructor told us, “is not a tradition in this area." Our class instructor was Scottie Roberts Weist, herself a potter by profession. Scottie explained that the Carpenter brothers learned this skill within the past seven or eight years. Tradition or not, the pottery produced by these men exemplifies the creativity and versatility of the mountain folk. Finding and digging clay for their po s, laying the brick for their kilns, deftly shaping and finishing an array of bowls and plates and vases — all of these are new skills the brothers have mastered.

Then. . . something comes up — something they either didn’t know about, or knew about and forgot. Closing costs. Even people who have heard about them sometimes don’t know exactly what they are. Closing costs are a number of necessary fees and costs involved in the sale of a home. They could include such items as title search and insurance; land survey, mortgage and transaction tax; bank charges; deed, title, and mortgage recording fees; legal fees; and home inspection. It’s always important to keep closing costs in mind when figuring out the cost of a home. We always make a point of keeping our buyer clients informed regarding them right from the beginning, so that there won’t be any surprises when it comes to financing. When it comes to financing, the one thing you DON’T need is a last minute surprise. If there is anything we can do to help you in the field cf real estate, please phone or drop in at EILEEN M.

To be, it seemed incongruous for hard-working, rough-looking West Virginia woods hicks to create such original, refined products. They spoke knowledgably about “tightness” of different types of clay, the effects of kiln temperatures, percent absorption, etc. They have perfected the fine points of creating a variety of clay products for a wide range of purposes — cooking, serving, and decoration. The products they showed us were beautiful and functional. And the prices were incredibly low. Most class members “loded up” on pottery before leaving Loy's and Dempsey's studios. Tastefully fashioned from pure West Virginia earth, these pots were truly “dirt cheap." Later, we stopped at the home of Mrs. Conelly in Upshur County. Mrs. Conelly was a delightful hostess who was willing to share with our class all she knew about quilting. She even attempted to teach me how to quilt. After I had labored over five or six stitches (without pricking my fingers!). I thought 1 had done a passable job. “That's OK,” said my mentor when she saw my crooked stitches, "1 can cut those threads out and replace them.” Despite my failure as a quilter. 1 discovered that quilting is a fascinating traditional art. Mrs. Conelly had the benefit of years of experience, some of which was under the auspices of Mountain Artisans. Mountain Artisans was a government sponsored craftsmen’s cooperative, initiated in the days of Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt. Infact, Eleanor Roosevelt was very much involved with the program. Mrs Conelly quilted for the cooperative from 1969 to 1978. Aft first she said, the Mountain Artisan crafts were exclusive items, designed for very rich clientele. Later, the products included many lower priced items. According to Mrs. Conelly, the intent of Mountain Artisans was to help lowincome people in the area, as well as to promte mountain crafts. But, she told us, all workers were considereed self-employed, and had to pay social security and estimated taxes And they received little or no training. Virtually all participants were experienced at their crafts (or a similar product) before they entered the program. “The government wasn’t interested in pouring money and resources into training inexperienced workers.” she told us. "So they were definitely looking for women who knew how. It wasn’t hard to go from sewin’ a dress to quiltin’ a quilt.” Mountain Artisans craftspersons only produced leather and fabric goods. During her participation in The Message CAPTURED ON CANVAS—Foster brothers’ barns, one of several county scenes painted by Manookian and exhibited at Middle St. Gallery. (Continued from Page 1) spend the rest of my life being representational. I hope I'll change. 1 hope I’ll gel better," Manookian said. While her style today is more traditional, she uses artistic mediums innovatively. mixing her old silk screen ink with oil pastels to create brilliant colors that leap from, the canvas and capture the vividness of nature. Manookian's work also has a depth that's almost three dimensional. Roads wind of!' into the distance and mountains fade into the horizon. "I never thought about it before but I guess 1 learned something when I was working for Presentation Associates. It was an exhibit design firm. We did portable exhibits for the Veterans of Foreign War the airline pilots’ association, groups like that. I spent six months on a diorama with an aggravated perspective that gave the illusion of seeing 30 miles — all in about two feet of space." Lois explained. New Environment Her family has had a weekend place in Rappahannock since 1962 but it wasn’t until 1976 that Lois moved to the county fulltime. At first she missed the artistic stimulus that can be found in a city full of artists. She visited Washington’s galleries and exhibits often and went further afield, traveling to France in 1977 and returning with a portfolio of sketches that she’s SPECIAL SPECIAL SPECIAL SPECIAL ^VS/ceVs SPECIALS „ ...

OTHER SPECIALS IN STORE SPECIAL SPECIAL SPECIAL SPECIAL turned into oil paintings over the years. This past summer, she went back across the Atlantic, this time touring both Italy and France. "It was like cramming a year's art course into three weeks," Manookian reported, describing with contagious enthusiasm how she’d suddenly noticed, like a bolt out of the blue, that one of the great masters used green for the whites of his figures’ eyes. “1 learned so many new things!” The trip to the old world’s art capitals was a treat rather than a necessity, however. Lois no longer feels the old urgency to drive to the city for a few days or a week in order to have contact, both with art and other artists. The urgency disappeared when Dan Lewis and Sarah Shor'-r opened their showcase in the town of Washington last year. “Sarah and Dan and their Middle St. Gallery are the best things that have happened to Rappahannock County for me. 1 missed the contacts. 1 went through a three year hiatus when 1 first moved out here. I became a ‘closet’ painter,” Manookian added with a laugh. “1 had shown in the city at galleries and 1 missed those opportunities.” She found first the contacts and then the opportunity through Middle St. Last year, Lois was one of several local artists who met regularly at the gallery in the evenings to paint and sketch together. “Working with a group of artists is like having a teacher do a critique. You learn from each other. You inspire each other,” she explained. It was after those classes that Dan and Sarah approached Manookian about putting on an exhibit at Middle St. The inspirational burst that saw Lois finish her man at the window and turn sketches of the French countryside into oils followed on the heels of the invitation to exhibit. “There’s the atmosphere of an art community here now," she maintained. “1 don’t feel as isolated. It was here before but I didn’t know about it,” the artist concluded. the program, Mrs. Conelly earned $1000 to $2600 a year. “That's not a lot,” she concedes, “but when you consider that’s working at home, and not full time ... well, it buys all them extras.” There were 21 participants in Upshur County, and prices paid for their products were based on minimum wage, materials and overhead. All projects were timed. Mountan Artisans eventually went bankrupt, and has been replaced by numerous private co-ops. Mrs. Conelly believes that the tremendous amount of waste in materials "and other types of waste” contributed to the downfall of the public program. All of her sales, are private now, and her only advertising is word-of-mouth. Private employment allows for much more creativity and freedom than the government program, she said, but “the difficulty is to sell a quilt and get what a quilt is worth.” Her prices vary from $40 to $400. Her products include quilts, pillows, place mats, sample squares or “wall hangin's,” and a Christmas tree floor pad that doubles as a nice cape garmet for children. A tremendous amount of material, labor and care goes into these products. Before starting a quilt, Mrs. Conelly needs to figure how much backing is needed, the width of the material, complementing of various colors, and all sorts of arithmetic problems. “Oh, you’re spendin’ a half a day just figurin’ before you can even shop for material," she said. Like most quilters, she chooses fixed basic patterns, rather than design her own. “I’ve got so many quilt books,” she said. “I usually go through it till I pick up an idea." Wedding Ring. Dresden Plate, Grandmother's Fan. Star of Bethlehem — these are some traditional patterns that are as old as the hills of West Virginia." Her favorite pattern is Bridal Wreath. My favorite is Bear Paw. Though she begins with an unoriginal pattern, her quilts are marvelously creative variations on a theme. Patterns may have their dark and light colors reversed, be enlarged to cover a whole quilt, turned topsy-turvy, or pieced together in endless different ways. This is where Mrs. Conelly's supreme sense of color and design comes into play. All her quilts give a nice impression of tastefulness and unity. Our class's last stop was at the home of J. B. Lambert. A sign in front of his house savs "FOR SALE ALL KIND OF HANDLES." He makes "hammer handles, hatchet handles, name it." And he makes them right. "We don't make nothin' only outta hickory.” he told us. “Here's some of them ash handles. They're broke. That's all they make up at Beverly." (Beverly is a nearby community where a factory produces ax handles made of ash.) Lambert is experienced in many trades. He used to own a farm nearby, “over near Wymer. I owned a coupla farms over" there and I sold out and I’ve hated it ever since. Had no help fencing and stuff. I've worked in the woods and I’ve worked in the mines and ever’ place I went I seen somebody doin' somethin.’ I said someday , . . I'm gonna do that myself." For $3. Lambert will custom-make and install a hickory tool handle. (A nearby hardware store charges $7 for an ash ax handle.) To grind an ax. he charges 50 cents, “ ’ less it’s in bad shape, then 1 charge a dollar, 'cause it would take a half hour to grind it." "Y'all shoulda brought vour butcher knives," he told us. "We grind them free of charge." Lambert is a perceptive old man, with a variety of interests. He said he likes to feed the "Canadian birds." When I asked him what "Canadian birds" were, he gave a beautifully accurate description of evening grosbeaks, and added that "they come to sunflower seeds, then fly away in spring and I don't know where they fly to." Though he is not a musician, he has made a few fiddles. He showed us one that he had acquired years ago; it appeared to be an antique. “This fiddle." he to’ 1 us, "It's old as Mettuselah. That's pretty old. Yeah, he's about 10 years old when I knotted 'im!" —FOOT FACTS ■ Dr. Bruce Vogel Podiatrist Foot Specialist HAMMERTOES Very rarely do we find the cause of hammertoes to be wearing shoes that are too short. Perhaps in China, where the custom of tightly binding the feet was in vogue years ago might have caused the problem. Hammertoes appear as toes that are buckled at one or more joints. They may be flexible or they may be rigid. That is, the toe may be straightened with the fingers, or if it has existed for too long it remains in a locked position. The discomfort is usually from the rubbing of the shoes across the top of the toes (possibly causing corns) or on the ends of the toes. The actual cause is due to an imbalance in the muscles that pull the toes under the foot and those that pull the toes up (stabilize them while walking). Both types of problems can be corrected; the flexible hammertoes with a relatively simple procedure. A public service with the aim of promoting a better foot health environment.

Inc Member Audit Bureau ol Circulation Thursday, November 11,1982 Good Hunters Only Deer season opens Monday. We hope it doesn’t bring a return of last year's reign of terror which saw caravans of slob hunters prowling the county’s backroads. The majority of the hunters who arrive in the county for deer season are law abiding sportsmen. They respect the property rights of landowners by staying far from fields and forests marked out-of-bounds by posted signs. They don’t skirt the edges of the law by sending dogs past the posted signs to drive the deer out. They don’t shoot from the road. They don’t take does out of season. They leave the whiskey bottles home in the liquor cabinet and the beer in the icebox. But the majority of good hunters have seen their hunting privileges threatened by the unsporting few as silent protests against the abuses by the unethical have been nailed to fence posts and trees, closing an everincreasing number of Rappahannock acres. Law abiding sportsmen are welcome by most of the county’s residents. They give a shot in the arm to the local economy, spending thousands of dollars here on lodging gas, groceries and other supplies. But as welcome as good hunters are, they’ll be barred with the few slobs if something isn’t done to curb the flagrant abuses of deer season. And it’s the ethical sportsmen who can provide the most effective deterent. They can ostracize the slob hunters, by refusing to be a party to hunting violations. If that doesn’t work, they can report violations to the proper legal authorities, either game warden Jim Bankston or the Rappahannock sheriff’s department. It’s important, however, for both landowners and sportsmen alike to remember that filing a complaint against a slob hunter isn't enough. In almost all cases, they have to be willing to testify against the offender in court. Otherwise, the complaint is just an exercise in futility. The welcome mat is out to hunters in Rappahannock County—but only to the law abiding, ethical hunters. We must see that the message gets across to the slobs, the deer killers, who are sportsmen in name only. Senator Miller Confused By Grant Applications Rappahannock County has one very confused representative in Richmond, judging by a correspondence to the county’s Water and Sewer Authority from State Senator Nathan Miller. In a letter dated October 6, Bob Dennis, WSA treasurer, wrote Miller, asking for his support for the county’s effort to secure $478,193 from the Community Improvement Block Grant program to finance Sperryville’s sewer system. At it's November 9th meeting, the Authority reported on the reply from the senator. Miller wrote that he had intended to send a letter in support of the block grant application to Gene Dishner. Director of the Virginia Department of Housing, but saw no reason to forward the letter since approval for the grant had been announced by the State Water Control Board on October 8. ‘‘I was somewhat disappointed to read your comments in the Rappahannock News last week about this matter.” Miller stated, in reference to an article on the status of the grant application in the October 22 edition. "Your remarks left the distinct impression or implication that I was not interested in this matter. "Let me assure you that 1 was and still continue to be very interested in not only this matter, but the other concerns of my constituents in Rappahannock County,” the senator wrote the Authority’s treasurer. While Miller may be concerned, he doesn’t appear to be informed. The grant approval he referred to that was reported on by the News on October 22 is a $1.5 million grant from the Environmental Protection Agency channeled through the State Water Control Board. The grant application for which the senator’s support was requested is the $478,193 sought from the Community Improvement Block Grant Program, not the SWCB. Initially, the announcement of block grant awards was expected to come from Governor Charles Robb's office in the first week of November. Russell Owens, associate director of project information for the Department of Housing, said on Monday, however, that the application review process was still going on. “We haven’t near reached the end of the tunnel yet,” he said, estimating that the winners of the block grant awards will be announced in late November. This Was The News In Bygone Rappahannock Times... 10 YEARS AGO RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS Young Americans Don’t Know About Chestnuts was the title of a feature article in the Rappahannock News of November 2, 1972. In it, the history of the American Chestnut tree and its demise was described. “The American Sweet Chestnut was once an important tree species in the eastern United States. The nuts were highly prized because they were sweeter and richer in flavor than those of most other chestnuts. “Disaster struck in the early 1900’s when the chestnut blight became prevalent. This fungus soon killed all of these fine trees. ” A group of Brownies participated in an investiture service. They were Terry Williams, Phoebe Pierson, Michelle Hargett. Wendy Helmer, Gwen Jordan, Sheri Brown, Heather Fannon. Kathy Wingfield, and Eugenia Kritz. Mrs. Donald Jones was the group leader. A crazy quilt project was completed by the Rappahannock Arts and Crafts group, raising over $1,700 for the county's rescue units. Mrs. W.H. Lyne was the winner of the quilt. On sale at Stokes Mart in Front Royal was tuna for 38 cents, panty hose for 38 cents, zippered boots for $2.88 a pair and dish detergent, 4 for $1. 20 YEARS AGO RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS CHARLES K.

Letters To The Editor No Victims Here To the editor. In your issue of November 4. surely you have chosen about the worst case possible as an example of the need in this county for a new victim witness program. Mrs. Gregory’s own conduct led directly and unerringly to the tragic events of August 20, 1980, in Middleburg. The facts were undisputed in the open court room. To characterize her as a “victim” and to spend salary and expense money from public funds for four days to shield her from her own shame tells us in advance how our county funds would be misspent if we established such a program here. If you and Irene Wodell would bleed your hearts over the ex-Mrs. Gregory as a “vulnerable” witness and “victim”, would you also rush to the defence of the woman in Florida who, according to the news today, is suing her lover for S100.000 because she claims he gave her incurable Herpes II in a one-night stand between the sweaty sheets? since the ureogry trial your paper has gone out of its way to extenuate and condone promiscuity, sexual license, fornication, and adultery. Don’t you realize that young boys and girls in this county also read your newspaper? They have read your detailed account of what happened at the Middleburg pad on the night of August 20. Then they have read how you have tried to make a “vulnerable” and innocent victim out of the pad’s star actress. Are you trying to undo even the little bit of moral training which our parents, our schools, and our churches are able to achieve in our permissivist society and in spite of the restrictions imposed by judges from the bench? In all of your flood of print on the case, where have you even remotely suggested that Mrs. Gregory’s “fast lane" conduct was to be blamed in any way? That the peace and tranquility of three counties in this Commonwealth have been seriously disturbed by the spin-off of her conduct doesn’t even appear to have occurred to you. Your article and your editorial tell us more that we care to know about people such as Irene Wodell. Not satisfied with having sent that bucket of garbage into Westmoreland and Rappahannock to consume our public funds and the time of citizens and officials, Loudoun sends us Wodell to beat the drums around here for her pet program while in the midst of demonstrating that she is making a farce of it! It seems that they would like to leave us with some permanently damaging effects of the Gregory case as though it were another case of Herpes II! I an. just as concerned with real victims of crime as you, and I think of them every time a prosecutor nol proiiei without compelling reason and every time a judge suspends another sentence. But a Victim Witness Program in Rappahannock? It would never be operated on one-half of S20,000 (the other half for Fauquier). That S10.000 is just your wedge to get the program started here. You have already alerted us to what would follow: a separate “Director” in short order for each county; “terrific case loads” with moaning about “understating”; more paid assistants because there is no “host of volunteers” in Rappahannock for such a program (we have seen this demonstrated in the case of the schools here, as opposed to counties such as Fairfax and Loudoun where you can draw on a large and varied population for volunteers). My suggestion to the supervisors: look to your real priorities at budget time and leave any misplaced compassion for ex-Mrs. Gregorys at the court house door when you enter to set our tax rate!

Hutchinson “The green leaves, old Turn to yellow leaves, gold With winds so bold And air so cold For it is autumn."—J.R. —Rappahannock Heritage Support Appreciated io me eattor: After each election, the political pundits take stock of the results and attempt to attribute some significance to the various percentages gained by the respective candidates. The 1982 7th Congressional race was important to independent and progressive voters in that it marked the first attempt by the Citizens Party to bring its message to the people of the 7th district. For the first time in recent memory, voters were provided with a real alternative to the politics-asusual programs of Democrats and Republicans. Although we were outspent by 25 to 1, almost 5000 voters registered their support of our program district-wide, and in Charlottesville, the Toscano campaign polled 11 percent of the vote. Such figures bode well for the future of the Citizens Party and for people in the 7th district who recognize that traditional democratic approaches have not worxea ana mat me republican program will not work. The Citizens Party is attempting to build an alliance of small businesspeople, minorities, women, family farmers, and professionals who are committed to economic democracy, social justice, and a new foreign and military policy. Over the next few months, we hope to identify these 5000 supporters in order that we may build a progressive force for the future. My sincere appreciation goes to the hundreds of people who worked in the campaign and to the thousands who supported us with their votes. 1 encourage you to write or call me so that I may personally thank you for putting progressive politics on the agenda in Virginia. — DAVID J. TOSCANO Central Virginia Citizens Party Demons To the editor I feel it was a great thing for Mrs. Elizabeth V. Whetzel to write concerning her unpopular opinion about demons; however, her views are out of date, being the beliefs of first century, and earlier, Bible writers. The fact of the outpouring of the Spirit of truth upon all flesh in 31 AD made a big difference, even though its immediate results were not well perceived by Christians at that time. The Bible itself indicated that the fallen angels - demons - have been imprisoned somewhere. . . perhaps on a “black hole in space” (Jude 6). But the Urantia Book which claims to be a modern revelation authorized through God’s will brings us up to date on the matter. All of the “demons” except the former Planetary Prince, Calagastia, and his assistant, have been removed from the planet. These two "devils” have no authority and are severely limited in power, although they remain at large. They can no longer possess anyone of normal mind against their will, because since Pentacost, all rational humans are indwelt by God (although not everyone acknowledges this, nor does everyone live it). Twentieth century demons are a reality but not the reality of the first century A.D. Much just plain craziness and emotionalism is ascribed to the devil and to the Holy Spirit, as well. Humans are but slightly aware of what these persons existing at energy levels faster than light are doing - they make their own rules and sometimes ours as well, not the other way around, so there is little we can do about it anyway. But live positively and lovingly, and promote positive and loving concepts, accept the reality of the Parenthood of God, and the fact that we are all siblines of God's family, and live that way. We’re a long way from it. Little children and spiders don’t worry about the devil, so why should anyone else? PETER BROOKS HOLLEY Boston Thank You From Lions To the editor The Rappahannock Lions’ Club wishes to thank all of the people in the community who helped to make the apple and apple butter sale so successful. We wish to especially thank the Rappahannock School Board for the use of the bus garage grounds for our stand. We expect the proceeds to be put back into the community for sight, hearing and youth activities. Anyone with a problem with sight or hearing who needs help should contact a member of the Lion’s Club or call the Club President, Arthur Town, at 635-7547. ARTHUR TOWN Lion’s Club President Support Appreciated To the editor On behalf of the Sperryville Ladies Auxiliary, we would like to thank each and everyone who attended our Harvest Dinner on Saturday. We thank our patrons, too, for their patience as they stood in the long line, waiting to be served. Again, we want to express gratitude to everyone who supported us in any way to help make this dinner a success and we do apologize for taking so long to get everyone served. The door prizes were awarded to Charles B. Dodson of Sperryville and Edward Grigsby of Castleton. MARIE F. ATKINS President Sperryville Ladies Auxiliary —From Both Barrels— Beyond the ’82 Elections By GEORGE BOWLES While Virginia Republicans picked off the big prize in last week's offyear balloting, the elections proved to be considerably less than an undiluted occasion of joy for the GOP. Indeed, except for the narrow victory of the party’s Senate candidate, Paul Trible, over Democrat Dick Davis, the elections might properly be described as a Republican reversal of substantial size and, perhaps, significance. Going into the election, the GOP help nine of the state’s ten Congressional seats. They lost three of them, and avoided losing a fourth only because there was a third candidate in the Eighth District race who probably drained off enough normally Democratic votes from Herb Harris, the party's candidate, to enable incumbent Republican Stan Parris to eke out a win. In the House of Delegates special election, the Republicans had confidently expected to pick up eight seats. As it turned out they appear to have gained one. Two of the GOP delegate wins .were by four votes and 17 votes respectively. Recount requests in these two districts are considered likely. The question of why the Republicans were able to win a statewide U.S. Senate race while losing a third of their delegation in the House of Representatives is an interesting one. It is possible that President Reagan himself put his finger on the answer. It may be that the election was. at least to a degree, a referendum on Reagonomics. The districts which the Republicans lost were the Fourth in the Southside, the Sixth in the RoanokeHarrisonburg mountain and valley region, and the Ninth in the far southwest. In the Fourth and Ninth, and to a lesser degree in the Sixth, the recession has struck with full force. Unemployment is high and the performance of the Reagan economic grand design is very much an issue. This was undoubtedly a major factor, among many others, in the voters opting for a change. But in the state as a whole, the economic pain caused by the recession has been far less severe. Virginia's unemployment is low compared to the double-digit jobless rate in the nation at large. Times may be tough, interest rates may still be high, and the ballooning federal deficit may cause vague worry about what lies down the road. But for the moment most Virginians are comfortable. There is relatively little immediate suffering. The voters were willing to give the President the time he says he needs; to stay the course. Thus they elected Mr. Trible over Mr. Davis, who sees great danger ahead if that course is followed. There were, of course, many other factors in all of the races. These include personalities, the availability of advertising funds, a host of philosophical issues real and imagined, newspaper editorial broadsides and, as always, the closing barrages of that political garbage called negative advertising. Whatever role the economy and the other factors played in their outcome, the elections of '82 cast long shadows into the future. Up to now at least, Mr. Reagan has gambled the nation's economic health and the health of his party on his “Stay the Course” motto. It gives him very little room for maneuver if things go wrong. If they go well the recovery actually begins next year, the President’s men in Virginia will be in tall clover. But if the recession continues or deepens, the GOP experience in the Fourth, Sixth and Ninth Districts this year is but a small sample of what is likely to happen in 1984 when the whole Republican team comes up to bat. Enlightening Reading Io the editor: The letters to the editor in your November 4, 1982, issue provided most interesting and enlightening reading. May 1 use this opportunity to assure Mrs. Whetzel that many people in our county have begun to have questions about whether the traditional (commercial) Halloween garb and activities are really appropriate for Christian families. I also agree that we should investigate and test “the facts’’ against the truth. All too often even Christians are deceived and seem to be following guidelines as presented in Christian Living Made Easy by Lucifer and Company rather than the Word of God. The letter from a former Rappahannock student with the editor’s note that “religious” materials could not be sold through the schools because it “presents a possible violation of constitutional constraints concerning religion in the schools” represents a fine example of Christian living made easy through Lucifer's deceptions. 1 fail to find any logical explanation of why approval is routinely given in our schools for subtle religious activities that are nonChristian. but to accept orders for Christian theme posters represents a possible violation. And, if there is the possibility of a violation, does it not include the responsibility to determine if there is, in fact, a violation? "Ignorance is Bliss” could well be the first chapter of Christian Living Made Easy by Lucifer and Company. The second chapter could be titled, "Don’t Make Any Decisions and You’ll Never Be Wrong”. Thank you, Rappahannock News editor, for sharing two valuable letters with us, your readers. BECKY BURKE Washington 1-66 Section Opening Work is progressing on schedule toward the tentative December 22 opening of Interstate 66 inside the Capital Beltway (1-495), according to Danald E. Keith, Northern Virginia division administrator for the Virginia Department of Highways and Transportation. Unless adverse weather delays construction, they say the road—which has been named the Custis Memorial Parkway—should be ready to open as scheduled. The new roadway, which, extends to the Theodore Roosevelt Bridge, will have several restrictions unlike any other interstate highway. During the weekday rush hours, traffic will be limited to buses and vehicles with four or more occupants in the peak direction of travel. This means that, from 6:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. weekdays, only buses, van pools, and car pools. Correction The telephone for Delegate Raymond R. “Andy” Guest’s office in Front Royal was given incorrectly in an advertisement printed in last week s Rappahannock News. The correct number is 6358822. The News regrets the error.

East St. 825-8371 Culpeper, VA THIS IS THE CAROL CAMPBELL her old friends from Rappahannock will recognize. At 249 pounds, she wore a size 44 and the big moments in her life all came in the kitchen. ONE HUNDRED AND TWO POUNDS LATER, Carol can fit two of her new size 12 self into a pair of slacks left from her fat days. Carol Campbell Joins Ranks Of Formerly Fat Old Rappahannock neighbors pass Carol Campbell on the street and don’t recognize her. But Carol isn't offended. After years and years of unsuccessful effort, the svelte and slender woman hiding inside the 100-plus pounds of excess fat that she carried around finally broke free. The Carol Campbell those old friends knew in the fall of 1981 weighed 249 pounds and wore a size 44 tent. The new Carol Campbell tips the scales at 146‘/2 pounds and looks great in the stylish fashions hanging on the racks in size 12. Carol found the inspiration she needed in Conway Diet Institute classes, the same classes that she now conducts as a lecturer. Her doctor had nagged at her constantly to lose the health-threatening fat that she began accumulating while a teenager. “I came from a food-oriented family. We did a lot of good old country cooking in the kitchen of our home at Peola Mills," Carol recalls. • It didn’t help that her husband Billy, who married her at a size 18, insisted he didn’t mind her being a little stout. But Carol minded. She put off going to the doctors for a check-up to avoid another lecture on the health hazards of obesity and she started a new diet every week. And every week, she slipped off the regime, tempted beyond endurance by the mouth-watering delights she effortlessly whisked from the oven to the table. She had a well-deserved reputation among her family and friends for great cooking, a standing that made it particularly difficult to stick with a diet. “The biggest thing in my life was the fancy, high calorie dessert or exotic dish that was always very fattening," she remembers. The turning point came when a high school friend, a woman the same age and not nearly as overweight, suffered a series of heart attacks. Carol Campbell was literally scared skinny. The Conway Diet classes she'd attended four years previously for a brief period had disbanded but Carol dug out her old 1.000 calorie diet sheet and when classes resumed two months later, she rejoined the group. "Misery loves company, especially fat misery!" she jokes. “Group support is what a lot of overweight people need." On the balanced 1,000 calorie a day regime that includes a long list of unlimited vegetables, two slices of bread, lean meats and three pieces of fruit, the fat began to melt away. At the weekly weigh-ins, Carol posted regular losses that added up to about ten pounds a month. Lectures which focused on . behavior modification helped Carol change her cooking patterns and prompted her to became more active physically, adding walking to her daily program. “At the Conway meetings, we got the low down on diets and what the bodv needs to be healthy. And it provided a social outing as well," she says. “Over-eating is like alcoholism. You need to know that someone else shares your problem.” For Carol, the Conway approach worked. She reached her goal of 149 pounds in August, 1982, and she has lost an additional 2'A pounds for a safety margin since. With her waist measurement down from 44 to 28 inches, Carol now shops in the misses department instead of the queen-sized section. Her husband is proud of her success and their 15-yearold son Chris, who watched what his mom was doing and picked it up from there, has lost 60 pounds. Since reaching her ideal weight, Carol has followed the Conway plan of adding 300 calories to her diet until she reached the level where her weight was maintaining instead of dropping. The formerly overweight lecturer is an inspiration now herself to the Thursday night classes she conducts at Culpeper Presbyterian Church and Carol plans to continue her Conway association even though she no longer belongs to the ranks of the fatties.

Crtpeper Panther Harriers Edged Out Again Rappahannock’s runners finished a close fourth in the regional cross country championships held last Wednesday in Charlottesville with just three slim points separating the Panthers from second place. The boys from Buffalo Gap in Augusta County, undefeated during regular season competition, took the regional title, compiling 47 points. Runner-up was Stonewall Jackson with 65 followed by Strasburg with 66, the two Bull Run teams reversing the places they held in the district final of the week before. Rappahannock tallied 68 points. Scott Keithley paced the Panther pack, covering the Piedmont Community College course in 17:36 for third place. He came in behind Stonewall Jackson’s Timmy Holler (17:09) and Shawn Lohr from Strasburg (17:28), the same duo that outraced him to the tape at the district meet. Larry Sisk, Craig Kenyon and Ronnie Atkins crossed the finish line in a knot in 18:32. 18:33, and 18:34 for 13th, 14th and 15th place. Ricky Shaw was 27th (19:03) among the 75 runners who competed in Wednesday’s regionals, David Dodson 45th (19:39) and Elwood Dodson 56th (20:17). Buffalo Gap took the crown by placing five runners in the top 20. Stonewall Jackson, Strasburg and Rappahannock teams each had four. Coach Ann Keithley noted that Craig Kenyon's performance showed he had recovered from the mental and physical shake-up of a fall at the start of the district meet. “Larry Sisk also ran exceptionally well. He’s back up to running like he was last year.” But Ronnie Atkins, who has been right on Keithley’s heels in earlier races, was off his usual form, running with a bruised foot. “He dropped a piece of wood on it — If it isn't one kid, it’s the other!” coach Speiker laughed, shaking her head in mock dismay. She predicted, however, that Atkins will be recovered in time for this —School Menus Sursum Cor da November 15-19 Monday Fish sticks with tarter sauce, baked potatoes with basil butter, corn with butter, spicy applesauce, milk.

Rappahannock County School News Schools Celebrate American Education Week Letters from the Principals. Dear Patrons, American Education Week, November 15 through November 19, is very important in the life of our school. We have an “open-house” for our parents and friends, we honor students, teachers, support staff and administrators in special ways, and we report to the community on the state of public education in our county. It is an exciting week. The task of reporting on our academic health brings to mind F.D.R.’s “Fireside Chats” complete with Scottish Terrier and a fire blazing on the hearth. My props are different. Among them are the components of a new expository writing program, a book on microcomputers in education, some discipline referral forms, and a shiny red apple. These give an insight into some of the challenges and rewards of public education. Most of our children are happy, well-adjusted youngsters. They are learning more about more than ever before in history. Many of them are talented, creative, and successful. All of them are very special people. They are the focus of our entire program. Our teachers are dedicated to quality education. The school population covers a broad range of ability and the teachers make every attempt to provide for individual needs. In the fall of 1980, we had seventeen first year teachers. This year only four new teachers were added to our staff and only one of these is a first year teacher. Everyone benefits from this experience base. Because of the rural nature of Rappahannock County, there is more interest focused on the school. This is clearly demonstrated by the involvement and cooperation of many of our parents. Nothing will help us improve our schools more than the support and help of all our patrons. Improved discipline means more teaching time; more teaching leads to more learning. The final result is better prepared students when they compete in the job market or for college admission. We are proud of our school, our students, our staff, and our community. We urge every parent and interested citizen to join us, not only during American Education Week, but throughout the entire year in working for continued improvement and success. Sincerely, Principal RCES Dear citizens of Rappahannock. We in this area have much to be thankful for as we approach the thanksgiving season: exquisite scenery, clean air. a measure of quiet, no stoplights, heavy tourist traffic on a few autumn weekends, and good people with whom to enjoy the environment. My chief concern, of course, is people - especially those entrusted to us at R.C.H.S. for the purpose of learning. I am indeed thankful for our youthful charges: for their enthusiasm, their developing skills and talents, their intelligence, their inquisitive minds, and for their overall fine behavior. I am thankful for a faculty and staff of dedicated, professionally skillful, caring adults. Working in tandem with our faculty is a fine staff of a secretary, custodians, cafeteria workers, bus drivers, a maintenance man and central office personnel. Each of the above serves as a team member in enhancing the education of our youngsters. My thankfulness extends to members of the community: to dedicated school board members, to the interested and supportive parents; to the citizensworkers- farmers- taxpayers who envision the best education possible for our county’s adults of tomorrow. For all of the above. 1 am indeed thankful. Principal RCHS And from the Superintendent. Dear Citizens of Rappahannock County: I am writing to extend an invitation to join us as we celebrate American Education Week. As the staff gathered in late August to prepare for the new school year, emphasis was given to the nation of success. It is my clear feeling that we have enjoyed significant success to date. We would like to share the successes of our young people with you and we would like to hear from you in terms of new and continuing concerns to be pursued. Reaching out to one another will surely help us realize a feeling of deep and abiding satisfaction. Won’t you join as in this endeavor? I Help us teach your child A Strong Nation Needs Strong Schools Visit Your Schools! November 14-20,1982 American Education Week Good Schools Need Interested Citizens Sponsors of American Education Week Nov. 14-20 say that parents and other concerned citizens who seek excellence in their local schools and education generally, should support teachers with outside activities that heighten classroom interest and involvement. Such efforts, would help mark the 1982 theme, A Strong Nation Needs Strong Schools. 1 Rappahannock County will observe this special week with programs and activities highlighting not only the accomplishments, but also the problems and challenges that lie ahead in education. Joint sponsors of American Education Week, National Congress of Parents and Teachers, National Education Association, National School Boards Association, The American Legion, and United States Department of Education, have noted a number of approaches for expressing commitment. Among them are: —Ask teachers how you can support their activities at home and in your neighborhood. Learn the objectives of various types of instruction so as to be able to explain those goals to young people. —Encourage young people toward a sense that the schools belong to them as well as to adults. — Help young people to involve themselves as completely as possible in their learning by showing that intellectual curiosity is natural and valuable. For example, encourage them to view the programs on television that focus on current events, or American history, or the various peoples, animals, plants, customs of other parts of the Boosters Meet The November meeting of the Rappahannock County High School Booster Club will be held at 8 p.m. on Monday, November 15 in the high school cafeteria. On the agenda is a final report on the club's recent and very successful “Friendship Follies.” Ideas for future fund-raising events will also be discussed. The highlight of the meeting will be a miniature science fair. Members of Brion Patterson's Physics class will be on hand to demonstrate projects they recently completed for the class. The Booster Club is off to a very promising start, and needs the support of many parents, teachers and students.

History Of American Education Week American Education Week was initiated after World War 1 draft boards discovered that about 25 percent of the draftees were illiterate and about 29 percent were physically unfit. In 1917, the American Legion, the National subtopics. Beginning in 1969, however, the cosponsors chose a general theme of national concern for each year. A list of AEW Themes, 1929-1982, appears on the back cover of this manual. Today, the observance serves to increase public un American Education Week NOVEMBER 14-20,1982 Education Association, and the U.S. Office of Education discussed launching an educational campaign to correct such deficiencies. As a result, a series of conferences began on a regular basis in 1919, leading to a plan for an annual nationwide observance of American Education Week and to the first AEW observance in 1921. Early AEW programs featured daily topics based on fundamental concepts of educational purposes and objectives. From 1929 through 1968 representatives of the sponsoring organizations chose a general theme with supporting daily derstandmg and appreciation of the schools, to encourage parents to visit the schools, to secure civic and community support to improve the schools, and to help students gain an appreciation of what the schools are doing for them. In addition to the three original sponsors—the American Legion, the National Education Association, and the U.S. Office of Education (now the U.S. Department of Education)—cosponsors include the National Congress of Parents and Teachers (1938) and the National School Boards Association (1980).

S|»fr VI rit. r Rappahannock feeder calt raisers selling their calves at state-graded sales are finding that the cattle are bringing as much as 10-15 cents more per pound than those sold privately. Rap Owings, Agriculture Extension Agent for Rappahannock, said that the state-grading system, done in cooperation with the Extension program, benefits the local cattle farmer in several ways. “We see big cattle farmers coming in here from Pennsylvania and the Midwest," Owings said. "Many of them Sale From Estate - Virginia Hunt Country One and one-half story Cape Cod, with attached two car garage - paved driveway and four stall stable on 39.941 fenced acres in Fauquier County, near Rectortown — $277,500.00 Contact: Marshall National Bank & Trust Company 703-364-1559 are looking to fill up their trailers, making the trip worthwhile. The local farmer who has 10 to 100 calves may find that the big buyers don’t want to bother with buying a few' here, a few there.” Owings said that the state graders will match up cattle from many breeders so that the buyers will have a large pen to choose from. So if a livestock buyer wants, say, 40 Angus steers, graded M, weighing 400-450 lbs. he can easily find a pen, selected and grouped by the state graders from several sellers. Owings said that buyers also tend to have more confidence in a livestock sale that is well-managed and has strict health requirements. Why does a buyer come from the Midwest to buy Virginia cattle, with acres and acres of good crop land back home? "It just doesn't make sense for big growers to keep pasture land,” Owings said. “Their land is worth more in corn, which they grow and then use to ‘finish’ their cattle."

That is, 300 to 700 pound calves are sold to stockmen from other states. There the calves are fed to market weight. The cattle business is a significant part of Rappahannock’s economy, although it has changed a lot down'through the years. "Cattle used to be finished on pasture, at least some of them,” Owings said. "In fact, old-timers remember folks driving cattle back along the Sperryville Pike from Culpeper.” There was also a “summer pasture” up above Sperryville that was rented by cattle raisers in the “flatlands’ to graze their cattle when lower pastures dried out in the summer, the extension agent said. Virginia is the cradle of the cattle industry in the East, both because the first cattle arrived here from Northern Europe and because "Virginia” in colonial times meant the land that extended from the Eastern Shore to the Mississippi River. 1 he commonwealth, especially in the higher elevations, could renew itself in grass, so pasture made more sense than continuous cultivation in many areas. Also in the sloping, rocky fields, livestock production made good use of lands unsuitable for other crops. Breeds of cattle traditionally raised in this state are Angus, Charolais, Hereford, Shorthorns and Simmental. "" Cattle production is greatly affected by the law of supply and demand. Production normally goes in cycles of 10 to 12 years. At first, farmers see favorable market prices for their cattle and expand their herds or, in some cases, enter the cattle business. This trend gradually results in more beef on the market than consumers are willing to buy at a price that allows cattlemen to make a profit. The price goes down, farmers leave the cattle business or reduce their herds until the cycle begins again. For years, farmers have tried to even out cattle production cycles. But calves continue to be born in the spring when good grazing will help cows produce milk. The calves go to feedlots for finishing in the fall, then to the packing houses in early spring. The prices affecting finished cattle sales affect feeder calf sales, too. Part of the intent in having the stategraded sales was to stabilize prices somewhat. At a feeder calf sale in Culpeper on October 28, Owings talked about the early sales. “At first, the Extension agents did everything,” Owings said. “We unloaded cattle, fed and watered them, ran the sales and loaded them back up for the buyers.” Over the years, the volume has increased until the management of the sales is the responsibility of the sales » .

A typical sale will have from 1,000 to 2,000 calves, with weights between 300 and 700 pounds. Usually, feeder calves are bought between 430 and 500 lbs. Buyers can examine them in the pens, where they have the benefit of knowing their grade; again in the ring, where they are shown for auction. Each prospective buyer gets a copy of the sale order, with the pen number, lot number, grade, average weight and total weight. Calves are sold by auction, with the highest bidder getting the whole lot. Bids are made for price per pound, and the auctioneer’s helper takes bids by phone. “This shows a certain amount of confidence in the state grading system,” Owings said. “People are willing to buy animals of certain grade, sight iinseen.” Sellers at the auction seemed well-satisfied with their prices. Once animals are in the ring and being bid, an owner cannot take them back if the price is too low. Generally, though, the prices at the state-graded sales are good. Seated next to Owings was a representative from a commercial livestock sales market. “I can’t buy any of these,” he said. "These prices are higher than 1 can sell them for.” "Sometimes the difference is only a cent or two,” said Owings. “But it’s well worth k for the 'small farmer.” To the buyer, _who gets efficient service and state-graded animals, to the small feeder calves, the state-graded sales offer encouragement in the continuing struggle for fair treatment in the market place. . . „ _ — Rannahannork N«i Pholn T Rr>n..ld« GIT ALONG LITTLE DOGIES - These Charolais Cross calves are displayed for prospective buyers at the state-graded sale in Culpeper.

John Schultz stopped by the News office to give us some pecan recipes especially suitable as the holidays approach.. To buy pecans, ask any Lions Club member. Betty Schultz volunteered her recipe for Pumpkin Praline Pie, which she said has spoiled her family for any ordinary pumpkin pie. Pumpkin Praline Pie Combine One-third cup finely chopped pecans One-third cup firmly packed brown sugar 3 tablespoons soft butter or margarine Press into bottom of unbaked pie shell. Bake at 450 for ten minutes. Cool 2 minutes. Pumpkin Custard Filling 1 small can pumpkin 1 egg Vi cup white sugar Vi cup firmly packed brown sugar Vi teaspoon cinnamon V* teaspoon ginger V« teaspoon nutmeg 1 cup of top milk or light cream (or 1 small can evaporated milk) Pour over brown sugar mixture in the bottom of the pie shell. Bake in hot oven (425 F.) 15 minutes. Reduce temperature to moderate (350 F.) and continue baking 45 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Diana Bird had a visitor from Uruguay who suggested that she make Pannetone for holiday giving and entertaining. Diana said that she'd been making this festive bread in coffee cans and using walnuts, but she said that she thought pecans would do fine as a substitute. I tried the pecans, and they taste wonderful. This recipe makes enough for 3 1-lb. coffee can-size loaves. Pannetone Combine and let stand for 3-5 minutes: 1 cup 105-115 degree water 2 packages active dry yeast Sift and stir in: 1 cup all-purpose flour Cover this sponge and let rise in a warm place until it has doubled in bulk. Beat until soft: Vi cup butter Add gradually and blend until light and creamy: 'A cup sifted sugar Beat in. one at a time 2 to 3 eggs Add: 1 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons grated lemon rind Beat in the sponge. Sift and beat in gradually: 3' 2 cups all-purpose flour Beat the dough for 5 minutes more. Add: */» cup chopped citron *. cup white raisins or chopped candied pineapple 1 cup broken nutmeats Cover the bowl with a cloth and let the dough rise about 2 hours or until almost doubled in bulk. Punch down, divide and place in 2 greased tube pans or in 3 greased 1-lb. coffee cans. Let rise 'A hour. Brush the tops with melted butter. Diana bakes her bread at 350 degrees, starting it in a cool oven. Bake about Vi hour-45 minutes. If you have any fall onions coming up in your garden, use them for Pecan-Green Onion Rice. Brown about a cup of green onions and onion tops in butter - more if you really want a pronounced onion taste. Add 2 cups chopped pecans and brown, adding more butter if necessary. It’s possible to use oil for browning, but certainly not the same. Add 1 cup brown rice, stirring briefly, add 2 cups chicken broth or 1 cup chicken broth and 1 cup water, simmering until done. Serve warm.

The pregnancy exercise class works on posture, relaxation, breathing, stretching, flexilibity, the. pelvic floor and abdominal muscles, and prevention and relief measures for muscle cramps and back aches. A pregnant woman may begin the twice-a-week program anytime after her third month of pregnancy. The exerci; s will help her to deal with the posture of her changing body, the stressed muscles and ligaments of the childbearing year, the muscles used during labor and delivery, and the little aches and pains that sometimes accompany pregnancy. The post-partum program starts the second week after delivery. It begins very simply with non-stressful exercises that aid in returning the abdominal and pelvic floor muscles back to prepregnancy state. The program builds up to work on the rest of the body, returning muscle tone, flexibility, and a Firmer Figure. Included in the program are special exercises for post-caesarean women. Newborns accompany their mothers to the post-partum class where, when awake, they, too, participate in FORE Gets Donation IBM has donated several truckloads of used office furniture to FORE Workshop in Remington.
