33rd YEAR, NO. 46 USPS 45558C 12 Pages The County Family Newspaper Since 1877 Thursday, November 18,1982 Washington, Virginia Phone 673-3349 2:v Baumgardner Seeks FOI Ruling Commonwealth’s attorney Douglas Baumgardner announced last week that he will seek a declaratory judgement from the circuit court on whether the county school board must release certain documents sought under Virginia’s Freedom of Information Act. Baumgardner's announcement is the culmination of events which began in August when the Rappahannock News requested a copy of an architectural report and budget analysis prepared by the architectmural firm of Mosely- Henning on the proposed central office-bus maintenance facility. The board refused to release the document. The following week, the News requested a copy of a revised report from that same firm and a copy of an index salary scale proposal presented to the board. Both requests were denied. The News then lodged a formal complaint with the commonwealth's attorney, charging the school board with violation of the Freedom of Information Act. Baumgardner responded with a request of his own for the contested documents and in fo r m a t i o n previously sought by Olga Fontaine Early Deadline Deadlines will be moved up next week so that the Rappahannock News can be off the presses in time for Thanksgiving. Copy will be accepted until noon on Monday and advertising until 5 pjn. relating to the county’s contributions to Piedmont Vocational Technical Center. The school board released both the index salary scale proposal and the information requested by Mrs. Fontaine. The board emphasized, however, that it still considered the index salary scale proposal exempt from Freedom of Information disclosure requirements and was supplying the proposal to the News only because there was “no compelling reason" not to do so. The board members held firm on the architect's report, however, refusing to release it to the commonwealth's attorney. “As to items required other than the architectural report and analysis, the FOI Act clearly required disclosure," Baumgardner noted in the letter to the News dated November 10. “The architectural report and analysis. however, presents a more difficult question, primarily because of the fact that the courts have never had occasion to rule on the issue of what constitutes the 'essence' of a report of this nature." An opinion sought from the Attorney General on the question was not definitive. “In fact." Baumgardner noted in his November 10 letter, "the Attorney General specifically held that it 'necessarily becomes a factual determination whether the board's public discussion has so revealed the essence of the report's content that the report has, by reason of the public discussion, become a part of the public domain.' ” (Continued on Page 3) Aileen Workers Lose Benefits In an attempt to recover from several quarters of below normal sales. Aileen Incorporated last w*eek cut benefits for employees at the company’s Flint Hill plant. Manager Wayne Walker acknowledged that workers at the garment factory. Rappahannock County's largest single employer, will not receive their traditional Christmas bonus. In addition. he said, holiday pay is being reduced. Employees will have two days off at Thanksgiving but will be paid only for Thursday and will not get compensation for the week the plant is closed at Christmas. Also, sick leave pay will be dropped at the first of the year. Walker confirmed. He declined to predict when the benefits will be restored but described the action as temporary. Walker attributed the reduction in benefits to a cash flow problem. "Our cash flow is very bad. We’ve had several bad quarters and we're operating on borrowed money at present. It's not good business practice to give bonuses with borrowed money,” he said. Despite the drop in benefits, however. Walker maintained that operations at the Flint Hill plant continue to be "very strong in all phases, both cutting and sewing." The women's line produced by Aileen Incorporated is the company’s "bright spot." Walker said. Two years ago, the line had sales totalling $4 million. Last year, the figure climbed to SS.S million and based on quarter sales, this year’s total for the women's line is expected to reach $7 million. “But our children's line is still a dark spot. Sales have dropped off drastically," Walker said. “With so many people out of work, there's just less buying by the public” More Jobs Hsvc But bad news for Aileen Incorporated's over-all operations could mean good news for Rappahannock, according to the local manager. The company recently closed its Brookneal plant in Southwest Virginia, selling out to Bassett-Walker, a firm which deals primarily in furniture but does handle "some sewing." Both the Brookneal and Rappahannock plants made "bottoms," Walker noted. “The majority of Brookneal’s work will be transferred here...That puts us in a better position. We'll be increasing our business, not cutting back," said Walker, predicting that more cutting room workers will be added to the plant's force, currently at 310 in December. "I'm confident we will be hiring in the sewing room, too." By closing its Brookneal operation. Walker said, the company hopes to have all its plants running at full capacity. In addition to the plant at Flint Hill, Aileen Incorporated has branches in Culpeper. New Market, Monterray, South Hill and Victoria. The current cash flow problem that led to the reduction in benefits arises from a time lag between expenditures and reimbursement, according to Walker. "We’re not what you would call ‘in debt’,” he maintained. Walker explained that the company invests capital in yarn that must be sevyn into garments and shipped to retailers who then have 30 to 60 days to pay for the finished product. The interval between Aileen Incorporated’s expenditure for yarn and the flow of cash back from retailers is between two and three months, he noted. "Because of that, we need an awful lot of operating capital," Walker said, adding that the drop in sales over the past several quarters has reduced the amount of operating capital that is available. “Goods have not been moving at the retail end. That’s the whole problem,” he said. — Rappahannock Newt Photo/Delia Mym THE LAST CHORES OF THE SEASON—Fanners across Rappahannock are turning over their fields to prepare the ground for its winter rest. Town Approves Permit For Tower With no opposition, the Washington town council voted at a public hearing last Wednesday, November 10. to grant the Board of Supervisors a special use permit to construct a radio dispatch tower at the rear of the jail. No one spoke either for or against the permit, although representatives from local rescue and fire crews were present. The tower, to be built at the northeast corner of the jail and standing about eighty feet high, will enable Rappahannock to take calls locally and respond with immediate dispatch of police and emergency workers. Water System Mayor New bill Miller told the codncil that several more tests were needed to fulfill the technical requirements of the state health department for the new town wells. "There's no problem.” the mayor said. “All of our tests have been fine, but we need to submit a few more." Charlie Jenkins, who runs the Washington Water Works for the town, said that he'd like to see some of the town’s water meters insulated to prevent them from freezing. He recommended either styrofoam pellets or regular insulation. Trash Cans Dorothy Hawkins said that she had received a check for the new town trash cans. She said that she had instructed Country Cupboards to make two oak frames for galvanized trash cans, coaled with a weather-resistant varnish. Hawkins asked the council if the town could pay for the third* trash can holder, so that all three could be finished and placed around town. Miller and treasurer Brad Fisher responded that there was no etctra money in the town treasury. Werner Krebser. in the audience. offered to pay for the third trash can if it would be placed near the center of town on his property. The council agreed. Dog Warden Search Jenkins asked what had been done about enforcing the. newly-enacted dog ordinance. Miller responded that the ordinance could not be enforced until a dog warden for the town was found. Christmas Decorations Hawkins asked the council to authorize Christmas decorations for the town. This they did at a price not to exceed last year’s Christmas expense. "How will we put them up?” Hawkins asked. "Same as always - I’ll do half and you'll do half," Miller answered. After a motion to pay the bills, the council adjourned its short (15 minute) meeting. All council members were present. Jobless Rate Keeps Climbing Rappahannock County’s unemployment rate topped 11 percent in September, according to the latest manpower bulletin from Virginia Employment Commission offices in Culpeper. In September. 2% persons out of a work force of 2,602 were idle, giving the county a jobless rate of 11.4 percent, the highest in the area. For the same period. Culpeper’s unemployment rate stood at 8.9 percent. Orange’s at 9.9 percent, Madison's at 9.2 percent and Fauquier’s at 4.7 percent. Areawide for the month of September, the jobless rate was 9.2 percent. At the same time, it was 7.4 percent for the state and 9.7 percent for the nation, according to the VEC bulletin. Lay-offs in the area's major industries — including Rochester Rope and Alfred Teveth brake manufacturers r~ --- in Culpeper and American Silk Mill in Orange — continue to have a significant impact on the unemployment rate. VEC statistics show an increase in the labor force and. at the same time, a decrease in the number of persons employed. As an example. Rappahannock’s labor force stood at 2,485 with 250 out of work in August. The numbers jumped to 2,602 in the labor force and 296 jobless in September. Although Rappahannock has maintained its spot at the front of the unemployment ranks for the area, the county's rate appears to be climbing slower than that of surrounding jurisdictions. Comparing the VEC’s Figures for September and August, Culpeper's jobless rate increased by approximately 18 percent and Madison's by 13 percent. Rappahannock’s increase was 12 percent and Fauquier’s seven percent. Orange trailed far behind with an unemployment rate increase between August and September of just one percent, the same as for the state as a whole and for the nation, according to VEC statistics. Asked if additional hirings by Aileen Incorporated, which re-opened its cutting room in mid-September, would show up on the latest jobless figures, Tom Blosser, employment service representative at the Culpeper VEC office, noted that manpower bulletin statistics are based on a reference week, generally the second in the month. Judging from job orders and openings filed with the VEC in Culpeper, Blosser said that he has seen no signs (Continued on Page 3) 1 DELIGHTED WINNERS—Washington's Extension Homemakers took first place in Achievement night competition for their stencil painting, the newly formed club’s first project.

Special Grand Jury To Investigate Shooting Death Rappahannock's first special grand jury will be empaneled Thursday morning, November 18, to investigate last week's shooting death of Ranee Spellman. Spellman, manager of Points of View Farm on Route 729 near Ben Venue, was reportedly widening a right-of-way through the property of Mr. and Mrs. Roger Kidwell when he was felled by a shotgun blast to the chest. Sheriff W. A. Buntin, Deputy John Henry Woodard and State Trooper R. A. Baines arrived at the scene just minutes after the shooting took place to find the 36-year-old farm manager dead on his bulldozer. No charges have been placed relating to Spellman's death, which occurred at approximately 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday, November 9. Commonwealth’s attorney Douglas Baumgardner, who asked the circuit court for the special grand jury, has announced that he will make no further comment on the case until the grand jury’s investigation is completed and its report filed with the court. A special grand jury does not have power to indict. It may recommend that specific charges be lodged in the shooting death of Spellman but the commonwealth’s attorney is not bound to accept the recommendation. Members of the grand jury are sworn to secrecy and forbidden to discuss their deliberations. The grand jury’s recommendations will be delivered to Judge Shore Robertson who may order the report sealed. Necessary witnesses have been summoned to appear before the special investigative body beginning at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, according to Baumgardner. Dispute Over Road Spellman’s death apparently came as the result of a right-of-way dispute between the Kidwells and Patricia Saltonstall. owner of Points of View Farm. Spellman was armed with both a pistol and a rifle, both unfired, when the shooting took place, according to reports. The conflict over widening the existing subdivision access which serves a lot owned by the Kidwells and three lots owned by Saltonstall was put before the court the day after the shooting. At a previously scheduled hearing in Warrenton last Wednesday, Judge Robinson issued a temporary in junction. enjoining Saltonstall from any road construction on the disputed right-of-way. According to the Kidwells' attorney, a second hearing on extending the injunction was set for this Wednesday, November 17. But both parties reportedly reached an agreement Tuesday afternoon which (1) continues the restraint against further road construction or obstruction of the Kidwells' access to their land and (2) requires that a gate recently erected by Saltonstall across the rightof-way be kept open. In addition, the agreement specifies that there will be no interference with lawful use of the existing roadway and that neither party will harass, disturb or go on the property of the other except to make lawful use of the road. The agreement, scheduled to be filed in Warrenton on Wednesday morning, is to remain in force until further order of the court. At present. no additional hearings on the right-of-way dispute have been set. SCC Urges No Service Cut-Offs To disconnect or not disconnect — that is the question which must be answered by utilities faced with customers who fall behind with their bills this winter. The State Corporation Commission has again declined to change termination proceedings which currently leave the.matter up to the electric and gas utilities. But the three SCC members last week asked utilities to make arrangements to avoid service cut-offs. "Because of the depressed state of the nation’s economy and our concern for the welfare of those who may be overburdened as a result of higher utility bills, the Commission is again strongly urging each utility to make such arrangements as are reasonably practicable to avoid service terminations during the extremes of winter weather." reads a letter signed by Preston Shannon. Thomas Harwixid, Jr., and SCC chairman Judge Junie L. Bradshaw. “If special problems arise which appear to warrant SCC guidance, please contact the Commission’s Division of Energy Regulation. Under all circumstances, the well-being of Virginia's citizens must be given priority." (In 1980, the Commission declined alter public-hearings to adopt proposed federal standards for service terminations which would have provided for notice to customers on cut-offs and given the customer the opportunity to dispute the reasons for the utility action. The Commission determined that adequate notice — ten days — is already provided for in Virginia rules and that the proposed federal standards are inappropriate and inconsistent with stale law.) REC "Ot course we're going to comply." said font Jessup of the Rappahannock Electric Cooperative's reaction to the SCC letter. The co-op. which serves R a p p a h a n n o c k (Continued on Pace 3) Deer Kill Down For Season Opener The deer season opened with a bang on Monday but judging by the animals turned in at checking stations around the county, it promises to be less than a record year for local hunters. ‘‘Rappahannock didn’t have anywhere near as many deer checked on opening day as in years past," said County game warden Jim Bankston. “The economy has had an impact on hunting pressures. People are working if they have work instead of taking opening day off to hunt.” He predicted, however, that hunting pressures and the deer harvest will both pick up this weekend. Blue Ridge Guns in Amissville reported 65 bucks checked on Monday with an additional 20 in by late Tuesday afternoon. So far, the lead in the big buck contest sponsored by the gun shop goes to 15-year-old Greg Meredith of Woodville. The young man bagged a 172 pound, nine pointer, the first deer he’s ever killed, according to Robert Bowers, Blue Ridge proprietor. Bowers noted that entries in the contest are judged solely by weight. John Alexander of Flint Hill apparently holds the honors for the biggest deer taken during the 1982-83 season's opening days with a 17-point giant that tipped the scales at 182 pounds. His buck outweighed the deer checked by young Meredith but Alexander declined to enter the Blue Ridge sponsored contest. Bowers said. Other larger-than-average deer turned in at Blue Ridge were an 11 point, 168 pounder shot by Richard Compton and a ten point. 154 pounder with a huge rack taken by George Groves, also of Amissville, Bowers reported. Mrs. Harvey Gorden at the H&J Grocery checking station in the F.T. Valley said 26 deer were turned in there on Monday and 14 on Tuesday. “They’ve been nice sized deer, an average of about eight points. They've been a little bit bigger than usual." she said, noting that the largest animal checked at H&J had a 13 point rack. Jean Lillard at the Flint Hill Storehouse reported 46 deer on opening day with 16 more turned in by early Tuesday afternoon. “We've had at least three 14 pointers,” she noted. Collins Dodson of Flint Hill was the first lucky hunter to check his quarry at the Storehouse, bringing in his buck at 8:15 Monday morning. "It's been real busy ever since. We're already on our third book," Lillard said. Biggest buck standing at the Flint Hill checking station for the season's opening days goes to Bobbv Hawkins of Arlington ITie Rappahannock native, son ot Mrs. Edgar Hawkins, turned in a 13 pointer, according to Lillard. While opening day was less productive than in past years in terms of number of deer harvested, Bankston was kept busy responding to reports of hunting violations. Two outol-county hunters, one from Stanardsville and the other from Warrenton, have been charged with violating the county’s new ordinance prohibiting hunting within 100 feet of a state road. According to Bankston, the two were allegedly shooting deer from Route 211 at Ben Venue. In addition to investigating several complaints on road hunting, the game warden spent hours during the season’s opening days looking into reports of deer baiting and bear hunting, bankston reminds hunters that bear season doesn't begin until next Monday, November 22.

Board of Supervisors of Rappahannock County By: Diana Bruce, Clerk By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock W Staff Writer Ken Ritvo and Sam Clifton have built the proverbial better mousetrap of the construction industry with their Solar Design firm and they're now waiting for the world to beat a path to the door of their Washington office. They rely on all the traditional tools—hammers, nails, saws, scaffolding, trowels. But they've added a new approach to the traditional route contractors follow by introducing one of the marvels of technology—a computer. ‘‘Basically, we're here because it's fun and the only way we can make building fun is to take the drudgery out. We’ve developed an efficient system for doing that," Clifton explained. “Lots of people believe that computers think,” Ritvo said. “Computers don’t think. You have to know what you're doing. The computer only speeds up the image making. It's garbage in, garbage out,” he added with a grin. They’ve filled their computer with the equivalent of tons of that garbage—data on how much a lead carpenter is paid, the cost of a sheet of plywood, how long it takes to complete specific stages of a construction project, the effect of dark tile on a passive solar heating system and literally thousands of other pieces of information. 'Once the information is in the computer, it's like an electric filing cabinet,” Ritvo noted. Within an hour, they can go from blueprints to a rough image of a house on the computer screen. They can zero in for a peek inside the house to show their clients what the living room of their dream home will look like. They can even rotate the image to follow the sun’s path during the day. a key factor in the solar designs that are the partners’ specialty. “It eliminates unnecessary drawing. It eliminates drudgery,” Rijvo pointed out. .. .. J hey can dial up a priority list for a construction project that specifies how many people are needed on the job, the materials that will be required, their source and their price and the time to completion. “If we have a day of rain when there’s no work done at the site, we can run the priority list back through the computer to determine a new time path within a matter of minutes. Then we can call the tile man and tell him to come a day later than we’d originally scheduled," Ritvo explained. “It eliminates having people standing around a job, waiting for something to be finished so they caii get started.” They’re currently using their computer system for product design as well as house design. The two men developed a thermo-syphon panel for a passive solar home they built, Blackwater Creek Homestead near Castleton. “It worked so well we’re taking that idea and redesigning it for the mass market,” Clifton said. They’ve already completed “Country Sun Home II,” a residence they can build on a site for x number of dollars with maintenance and operating costs basically enchanted by the charm of Country Sun Home II, the partners offer custom services. They have four projects in the design phase now—all solar. One that is to be constructed in Harris Hollow next year kept the computer humming for hours. “We had a problem to solve. They wanted a passive solar house but the slope on the site faced north,” Ritvo recalled. The two men came up with a design for a house that is to be built into a hill with solar collectors—glazed exolite panels—on the south facing split shed roof. “It’s like having two big sky lights,” Ritvo noted. Between the passive solar system and the partial shelter of earth, “you - literally should be able to heat the thing with a toaster!” he reported. “Tp keep it at 70 degrees should take less than half a cord of wood per winter with average sun days and normal con- « THE BETTER MOUSETRAP—Using data filed in its banks, the computer prints a construction priority schedule and time line for a Solar Design project. guaranteed. “We were told by area realtors that there’s a demand for a turn-key house. People want a country home but there aren’t many left,” said Clifton. “This fills the need for both a starter home and a retirement home,” Ritvo added. "And the buyer knows what the real cost of running the home will be over a period of time.” But for clients who aren’t ditions,” Ritvo predicted. His estimates are supplied by the computer. “We use it as a design tool. We come up with a concept and then we test that concept against what we know will work.” “We’re trying to do for houses what the Japanese are doing for cars—getting the most from space and materials,” Clifton noted. “Without compromising style,” his partner inn Restraint Law Effective Jan. 1 I Virginia's child restraint law pertaining to the transport of children under four years of age in certain motor vehicles goes into effect Jan. 1. 1983, and the Department of State Police has approved several types of restraints. The law passed by the 1982 General Assembly provides [ that any parent or legal | guardian who drives a | Virginia-registered motor | vehicle manufactured subsequent to Jan. 1, 1968 shall ensure that his or her ward under the age of four is provided with and properly secured in a child restraint device of a type approved by the Superintendent of State Police. However, children who are under four years of age but who weigh more than 40 pounds may be secured in the standard automobile seat belt. Another exception provides that certain children may be exempt from the law’s provisions should a physician licensed to practice medicine in Virginia determine that the use of a child restraint system by a particular child would be impractical by reason of the child’s weight, physical unfitness, or other medical reasons. A driver transporting a child so exempted would need to carry a signed written statement of the physician identifying the child and explaining the circumstances. For those parents or legal guardians who cannot afford to purchase an approved child restraint device, the law provides that they may make application to the Department of Transportation Safety which will review the application. If that department finds that the applicant is unable to acquire a child restraint because of financial inability, it shall loan the applicant a device for as long as he or she has a need to transport children. Drivers violating Virginia’s child restraint law and convicted are subject to a civil penalty in the amount of $25 or, if applicable in instances where the child is exempted by a physician but a signed statement is not available. $10. The law does not apply to children being transported in a vehicle having an interior design which makes the use of such a child restraint impractical or in a situation where the number of persons occupying the vehicle at the time make the use of the device impractical. It also does not apply to those children being transported by public transportation, bus, school bus, or farm vehicle. Fire Science Courses Set Of interest to local rescue squads and sheriffs department deputies. Lord Fairfax Community College has scheduled two fire science courses for the upcoming winter quarter. Arson Detection and Investigation will be offered on Wednesday evenings from 7 to 10 p.m. beginning December 1 and continuing through February 16. This course is an introduction to arson laws and types of incendiary fires. Emphasis will be placed on determining fire causes, recognizing and preserving evidence, interrogation of adults and juveniles . and court procedures. Fundamentals of Fire Suppression is scheduled for Thursday evenings from 7 to 10 p.m. beginning December 2 and continuing through February 17. This course will emphasis the basic concepts involved in fire suppression including fire behavior, principles of fire fighting as applied to small and large scale fires, problems involving the use of tactics, strategy, and employment and equipment and manpower at various echelons. The cost of each course is $46.50. Registration may be accomplished at the college on November 18 for returning students or November 22 for open registration between the hours of 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. or 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. For further information, contact the Industrial Technology Division at 8691120.

The important decisions at Solar Design are made with more traditional tools. “The computer is a decision-support system. It doesn’t decide anything by itself." Ritvo emphasized. terjected. “Who cares if you can heat it with a match if you’re not happy living there.” According to Ritvo, the two are particularly interested in exploring the concept of incorporating indoor greenhouses as port of a passive solar system. “We’re trying to get away from the idea that there’s ONE way to build a solar house. We believe that design can be evolved to the way people want to live." “And we’ve already proved that you can build a solar house on a north-facing slope,” Clifton added. They see no limit to the uses for the computer and the system they’ve built around it. “We can do any type of product—graphic and architectural. You go through the same steps to get to the finished product, whether it’s furniture, a brochure or a house," Ritvo maintained. “Most people look at how things are different. We look at how they are the same. We find the commonality, the elements that are similar to all kinds of design problems. It allows us to streamline the entire process.” They hope to be able to offer contractors an operating package in the near future. "We don’t really want to be builders. Our main aim is to design a building system to maximize the efficiency of any project, no matter how big or small. Energy efficiency doesn’t just apply to solar houses,” Ritvo said. “The key word is integration. We’re trying to package a package for builders, to put together a whole design approach that we can market in a kit.” Ritvo and Clifton traveled different paths to Rappahannock County and the office they share in Washington’s Clopton House and spent five years in developing their business r system to the point where it is today. ‘‘I studied industrial design in New York City at Pratt,” Clifton said. "After a year of working in New York, I couldn’t stand city life and city tension." On a travel vacation through the South, he stopped off to visit an acquaintance who lived in Rappahannock. “1 asked her if she knew of any places to rent, I looked at a house in Woodville and I moved in the next week." Ritvo first came to the county to camp, taking a break from his job with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration at Goddard, and stayed, working as a stonemason and craftsman. “1 was looking for the best medium to get out my ideas,” he recalled. Ritvo and Clifton met each other while working for a furniture designer and there refined the techniques for design and production analysis that they’ve incorporated into their business venture. Ritvo is basically a scientist with training in a work-study physics program at the University of Maryland. Clifton has an art school Building?

A Fitting Memorial To Those Who Fought And Died In Vietnam By eucene McCarthy Rappahannock Ncwd Special Writer “Too long a sacrifice, can make a stone of the heart.” So wrote William Butler Yeats in his "Poem, “Easter 1916,” about the irish rebellion against the British that year in Dublin. And he followed that line with this question; “Oh, when will it suffice?” So too he might have written of the grief, rancor, resentment, other disorders and confusion of “hearts and minds” that have run on in our nation since the ending of the Vietnam War. Yeats left the final settlement to a tribunal other than a human one and set the measure of human response in two lines of the poem. “That’s heaven’s part, our part To murmur name upon name As a mother names her child When sleep at last come On limbs that had run wild. Tfte monument to the dead of the Vietnamese War is a material representation of Yeats's words, as was the reading of the names of all the dead in the National Cathedral ceremony. What better memorial for a war then to simply list the names, carved in stone, without rank or distinction, arid to have each of those names said, at least once. It was a lonely war for those who fought it. Heroism was a part of every day’s mission, not of heroic landings or assaults. There was no stage in this war for officers, in battle jackets of their own design, standing on high cliffs, looking into the distance or making landings after the camera-men had been sent ashore. The designer of the memorial, those who approved it, those who carved the names and set the stones, all are to be commended. Like the war, the memorial has no clear beginning or ending. In one perspective, it rises from the earth. In another it gradually descends. Only the marking of the years of the deaths sets any order. One veteran in attendance at the memorial service is reported to have said “It's just like the war, it's not complete. Where's the statues they’re going to add?" He was half right. The memorial was like the war, as he said, but also complete, although he thought not. There should be no statues.

You hear them all the time. . . rumors about home prices; rumors about financing (easy or hard to get); rumors about interest rates (going up or down).. . you name it, and there’s sure to be a rumor going around to fit. The rumors are usually highly ambiguous. You’ll amost never hear actual figures used. If word is out that interest rates are “high”, one’s first reaction should be: “What is meant by high?”. Sure, they’re higher than they were years ago, but that still DOESN’T mean that they’re out of everybody’s reach. Translated into practical figures, people still can afford mortgages and monthly payments. The point we’re trying to make is NOT to make any decisions based on rumors; ignore the rumors and come and talk to us, even if you’re just “toying” with the idea of buying a home.

She may also have understood clearly what she meant to state in her design. She may, as artists sometimes are, have been moved beyond understanding into the range of special inspiration. Governor Brannigan of Indiana, in a moment of truth in 1%8, said of the Vietnam War that he was against it because it was the first war the United States had had which was not a “happy war". The war was not only not “happy”, but positively unhappy, so much so that novelists and playwrights only recently have begun to write of it. Only poets dared, or were driven to write of it, in earlier years George Browering, Robert Bly, Richard Wilbur, Richard Snyder, Lewis Turco and many others. All that needed to be said, or could have been said, might have been there in a poem by John Haag, simply titled “Kilroy” “Kilroy, mustered out at last, stepped down from his long vigil on the walls above the whole damned world’s urinals— and wept. Old Adam Kilroy, the first man everywhere, hero to us all and saint as combat soldiers, has packed it in, refusing to negate his magnificent career in defense of the just state by serving in Viet Nam. or in another poem, also called “Kilroy:” Kilroy is gone, the word is out, absent without leave from Vietnam. Kilroy who wrote his name in every can from Poland to Japan and places in between like Sheboygan and Racine is gone, absent without leave from Vietnam. K ilroy who kept the dice and stole the ice out of the BOQ K ilroy whose name was good on every IOU in World War II and even in Korea is gone absent without leave from Vietnam Kilroy the unknown soldier who was the first to land the last to leave, with his own hand has taken his good name from all the walls and toilet stalls. Kilroy whose name around the world was like the flag unfurled has run it down and left Saigon and the Mekong without a hero or a song and gone absent without leave from Vietnam. Or more profound than all of these poetic reflections, the note accompanying a Bronze Star Medal, given to me anonymously in 1968 with this note: (1 give it with misspellings) “I received a medal for vallor in Vietnam. But vallor is a corollary of morality and this war is not moral. It has corrupted the men who fight it. It has divided the nation which conceived it.

As an alternative to service termination, REC will work out a payment schedule for customers, no matter what the weather “but particularly during periods of severe cold,” she addfid. Jessup emphasized, however, that REC users shouldn’t wait until their bills reach unmanageable levels before contacting the utility’s service department at 8258373. Potomac Edison Contacted on Tuesday for response to the SCC letter, Dorothy Dovel, accounting department supervisor for Potomac Edison, couldn't give a definite answer on her company’s cut-off policy. She reported that the utility's central office personnel in Hagerstown, Maryland, are currently reviewing the disconnect program. Currently, Potomac Edison either collects overdue bills or terminates service, she said. “We’ve been told to make no changes in that policy until we receive authorization in writing...We try to contact the customers anytime before we interrupt service — either in summer or winter — but it’s not mandatory and it's not always possible,” Dovel added. Currently, Potomac Edison’s Luray office is waiting for instructions from Hagerstown on how to handle situations where a customer falls behind in payments. Dovel said the new policy is in draft form and waiting final approval before releast to all the utility’s offices, expected later this week.

Consumers who have questions regarding service termination may contact the Commission by calling the SCC’s Division of Energy Regulation, toll-free, at 1800-552-7945. “Customers of utilities should, of course, attempt first to work out their problems over possible cut-offs through discussion with company representatives,” the SCC advises.

Therefore I cannot in clear conscience retain this reward for actions which is essence served to supress the freedom of the Vietnamese people." Yeats may well have given the best explanation in answer to his own question of deaths in 1916. “Was it needless death after all?” when he wrote “For all that is done and said. We know their dream: enough To know they dreamed and are dead. What if excess of love Bewildered them till they died.” "America is hard to see” as Robert Frost has written.

Published by Warrenton Printing & Publishing Company, Inc. Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation Thursday, November 18,1982 No Haven I he public may never know the whole story behind the shooting that left Ranee Spellman dead. But one thing we do know — there were at least two people with loaded weapons, on that Ben Venue hillside last Tuesday, apparently ready to settle a right-of-way dispute with guns. This is not the Wild West of yesteryear. This is Rappahannock County in 1982. We have laws. We have law enforcement officers. We have courts of law. The act of arming one’s self with a loaded gun and then entering a situation where confortation is likely implies a willingness to use that weapon. This may have been an appropriate response in frontier days. It is not an appropriate response today. What is happening to us? Last year, armed thugs cruised the county’s back roads, threatening the safety of landowners who dared to post their property against hunters. Last month, Rappahannock jurors heard a case in which a husband shot and killed his estranged wife’s lover and then set the penalty for the taking of that life at $1,000. Last week, a right-of-way dispute ended with a shotgun blast that left a man dead. And the reaction to this latest tragedy? We hear on every street comer that he got what he deserved, that he’d been “running his mouth” and “trying to push people around” for three years. We need to take a long, hard look at ourselves and our attitude towards justice. Justice doesn't come at the end of a gun barrel. It comes under the law. Rappahannock was once a haven of safety, miles and miles away from the lawlessness, crime and violence that blots too much of this nation. We thought life was different here. We’ve proved that it’s not. This Was The News In Bygone Rappahannock Times... 10 YEARS AGO RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS IG NEWS in the Rappahannock News of November 16. 1972 was the cross country title won by Rappahannock 8 team. Their winning spurt was reported by Roger Flinchum: “Rappahannock's super cross-country team took the Virginia State Championships by storm Saturday, winning an unprecedented second state A title in their second year of competition. “Their winning score was an amazingly low 17. The perfect score is 15. In state championships this is unheard of. “The finishers were, in order, Charles Thomas, senior; Bill Taylor, sophomore; Tom Taylor, junior, John Summers, junior; Ronnie N' holson, freshman; Bob Titchenell, junior; and Morris Donaldson, junior.” 20 YEARS AGO RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS THE RAPPAHANNOCK grand jury was in session and returned ten indictments, Raymond Johnson of Woodville was named as Chief Forest Warden for Rappahannock County. He had been employed part time with the Virginia Division of Forestry since 1948. An Answer To Eastham To the editor Regarding Robert W. Eastham's letter to the editor. 1 can’t decide whether Mr. Eastham can't read or doesn't understand what he reads. The Victim Witness Program is not MY pet project. The Victim Witness Program was started many years ago to aid victims of crime and witnesses to those ' crimes. The President of the United States has a Task Force for Victim’s of Crime and the results will be presented to the nation in December. I know the President is recommending that each jurisdiction have a program to assist victims of crime. The Heinz-Laxalt Bill. S-2420, to protect victims and witnesses of crime, recently passed the Senate. The Governor and Former Governor of Virginia are in favor of the Victim Witness Program and have committees working in Virginia to assist in starting additional programs. There are hundreds such programs all over the United States and there are many programs in the State of Virginia. Why should the victims and witnesses of Rappahannock and Fauquier County not have an advocate to assist them? My job in Rappahannock County was to assist the commonwealth's attorney and the defense attorney in making sure witnesses were in the witness room when needed. Many witnesses came from great distances to testify. They were on call to come at a specific time, testify, and go back to their respective jobs. This saves the taxpayers many dollars and you don’t have a group of witnesses “hanging” around the courthouse all day. Some of the witnesses were on call and had to return to the Rappahannock courthouse to testify again. It was my job to be sure they were back in the witness room on time and relaxed when they took the witness stand. 1 don’t have time to read the material that Mr. Eastham suggested I read regarding Herpes because I am on call 24 hours per day to respond to a rape in the middle of the night; to rush to a crime scene where a loved one may have been murdered; to assist a dear elderly victim who may have been robbed of her last cent; to assist a gentleman who may have been battered by having hot coffee poured on his neck and face and a knife held to his throat; or a poor child who may have been beaten. 1 work with that victim from the moment I get the phone call through the complex court process. It is crucial that the public understand how important victims and witnesses are to the criminal justice system. Their statements and testimony are the critical elements in criminal cases. We must pay attention to the security, convenience and comfort of the victims of crime. For many decades we have struggled diligently to protect the rights of criminal defendants and persons convicted of crime. Efforts in this area should continue. Simultaneously, we should assist crime victims and witnesses. The system must be more responsive to the needs of those it should be serving. Without the cooperation of victims and witnesses of crime in idea* tifying, apprehending, and convicting perpetrators of crime, there would be aw system. It is important that Rappahannock County and Fauquier County have a Victim Witness Program to protect the victims aa4 witnesses of crime. The police generally answer to elected officials and discharge peace-keeping services on behalf of the^. public. CooimoawealtbS Attorney’s are elected and represent the State. Defendants are represented by attorneys. What aboat the innocent victim nk 'U^apahr who is left to flounder through the experience alone, unaided and without a clearly defined role? Attorney General William French Smith recently said “the plight of victims is a problem that we as a people cannot in good conscience ignore”. In addition, a victim witness program enables law enforcement officials are put on call, thereby savings taxpayers many dollars. Storeowners can continue making a living by coming to court, after being on call, and return to their store, thus saving them money because they do not have to close their store, only to come to court and stand around waiting to testify. No one is more conservative and more concerned about saving the taxpayers' money than I am. That is why the Victim Witness Program is such an asset to the community. It saves many thousands of dollars for the taxpayer. Mr. Eastham has my sympathy because he could not get volunteers for his school. I would be happy to “train" Mr. Eastham in recruiting and training volunteers. That takes a special talent, and Mr. Eastham appears to have the time. However, 1 would like to suggest that Mr. Eastham not waste anymore time reading about Herpes and spend time in a more positive way instead. Possibly, he will have a fundraiser and raise the first $1,000 or so far the Victim Witness Program in Rappahannock County and Fauquier County. No one knows how bad it is to be a victim of crime until they are unfortunate enough to be one. 1 prayerfully hope that no one in Mr. Eastham's family is ever a victim of crime, but if they are. I hope they wiU feel free td call me becauee 1 will come to their aid at a$9 time of the day night IRENE WODELL Director ■Rappahannock Heritage— Letters To The Editor A Victim Replies To the editor. In re; “NO VICTIMS HERE” letter in your November 11 th issue. I just hope Mr. Robert W. Eastham of Flint Hill is correct in his assumption that Rappahannock is so crime-free that it is also victim-free. What a wonderful place it must be to live. No murders? No assaults? No rapes? No robberies? No wives and children battered and beaten? Not even housebreakings? It sounds like “heaven", in fact, it sounds like “outerspace”! It also sounds like whatever it is the ostrich sees when his head is well below the surface of reality and deep in the sands of ignorance. Mr. Eastham feels that Rappahannock's county supervisors should not be led astray by the “bleeding hearts" need for a mere $20,000.00 per year to establish a program for the protection and help that these non-eixstance victims need, nor for the help to the Commonwealth in getting witnesses in for trials when they are needed. He obviously has no idea of what this program is all about. If Loudoun County (which has some crimes and victims, and admits this fact of life in these days, whether he does br not) gets by on $20,000 budget (with very little else coming in in donations) and civic minded people’s help, then ‘victim free Rappahannock should be able to really surpass all of our dreams for being able to help our victims.'Rappahannock should be able to place its few ‘battered’ wives and children, threatened people and witnesses, into safe houses and motels for indefinite periods throughout investigations and trials. Rappahannock should be able to keep victims of assaults, rapes and other physical damages in hospitals for indefinite periods of time, supplied with new clothes that were torn off and destroyed during their attacks, and perhaps fresh flowers every day during their hospitalization. Of course ‘victim free’ Rappahannock would have no need for counsellors for children who have been raped and assaulted and beaten, nor would they need anyone to counsel victims such as some of ours. on larceny, burglaries, etc., as to their rights to restitution under the law. Mr. Eastham must be halfblind. deaf and carry a BIG GUN and have a BAD DOG..or he would know belter. His attack on Irene Wodell, who is the director of Loudoun County’s victimwitness program, and who has had citations from both the Attorney General and the Governor of the State of Virginia for having administered what they cite as a pilot program for the entire Commonwealth, simply shows his ignorance and narrow prejudice on a subject of which he obviously knows nothing and cares less, where his fellow humans are concerned. I am sure this bigoted attitude is not possibly shared by his neighbors. For the record, Mr. Eastham, let me tell you about one case. At 3 a.m. on July 4th, 1980. I was tricked into stopping alongside the highway. I was assaulted, batted, kidnapped, robbed and raped by two men who sodomized me and left me for dead. They tore my clothes off and scattered them around a field. They SHOULD have killed me. because if they, had, they would never have been caught. Now. let me anticipate your questions... (1) What was I doing OUT at 3 a.m. on July 4? (2) What else did I do to provoke their interest? (3) Was I scantily dressed, or looking “sexy”? (4) Did I flirt with or otherwise encourage them? ANSWERS: (1) I worked on my regular government job until that late....I worked for the USPS for 15 years, 40 miles from my home. I was going home. (2) I stopped at 8 "7-11* ' to pick up something to eat when I got home. (3) I had on a long sleeved shirt, slacks, and old bowling shoes. (4) I only noticed them because I had to pull my car around them to drive out of the lot. ADDENDA: They didn’t follw me immediately, it wasn't for a mile up the road that they drove alongside of my car and the one on the passenger side leaned out and waved his arms and said “PULL OFF. there’s something wrong with your rear wheel”... Trustingly, I pulled off, thinking. “These NICE young men will probably fix my tire, or whatever". You see. at that time I was only bJ years oiu and I still trusted people! Hardly a SEX-POT! At 4:30 a.m.. I had found myself still alive, and although I wanted nothing more than to come home and take 17 baths and gargle and throw up, I went instead to the jail in Leesburg (Loudoun County), and sat outside and blew the horn until someone came out. 1 couldn’t get out of the car. I didn’t have any clothes left. The men who came out represented the Virginia State Police, the Sheriff of Loudoun and one Town Policeman and the Jailor (Who went back in and got me a pair of jail pants and a jail blanket). Jurisdiction was determined and both a State Trooper and a Deputy escorted me to the hospital. Within minutes of my arrival there, the investigator from the Sheriffs Department and Irene Wodell appeared, she with a housecoat for me to cover my nakedness. Even in shocktrauma. these people all are most helpful and come through under the worst possible circumstances to support the victim. You might call Irene Wodell a ‘‘Bleeding Heart.” If so, we need many more like her. I couldn’t have lived through this without her heljJ.’ Sht'tfof only was at the hospital from the beginning (after having worked 12 hours in the office, she had to get up out of bed and drive 15 miles in the middle of the night to get to ME...but now I know this is a common occurance with her) but she also saw me through the awful preliminary hearing and the worse trial months later, and in between she kept in frequent touch with me to keep my ‘spirits’ up or just to be supportive. This thing was not the sort of experience one gets over and forgets it ever happened. Once a VICTIM, one’s life is completely changed. I had to give up and retire from my government job five or ten years before I planned to. My whole life changed. My income from retirement and everything else is about 20 percent of what it used to be. and I am struggling for existance financially. However, for two years now I have been one of Irene Wodell’s volunteers. She has NO paid assistants. Our whole Program operates with volunteers, many of whom, like myself are also victims. I have to drive 40 miles to and from this volunteer job. I get no pay. I love the work. DON’T TELL ME YOU HAVE NO VOLUNTEERS IN RAPPAHANNOCK...Get your V ictim - W i tness Program going and you’ll be surprised how many volunteers pop up! At 65 I am getting back to life again! Why don’t you try it, Mr. Eastham? MRS. WESTALL BOOTH Commended For Vision To the editor I am writing to publicly thank the five members of the R.C.H.S. Booster's Cub and their president. Mrs. Barbara Dennis, for the level of support the group provides for Rappahannock County High School The Boosters meet once each month at which time there is a short business J>acting followed by a program involving some phase of the school's program. The Boosters have conducted a couple of fund* 'Meats including the sponsorship of a workshop and performance by the Young Dominion*'. This organized performance skits by local youngsters and adults. Funds raised by these projects have been used to purchase $750.00 worth of science equipment for R.C.H.S.: an hygrometer, wind chill gauges, several electric microscopes and safety goggles. This equipment will enchance the educational program offered to our students. Perhaps the Boosters' greatest contribution is their interest in and support of the total school program. They are to be commended for their vision. ROBERT T. CHAPPELL R.C.H.S.

By GEORGE BOWLES Anyone with an ounce of compassion in his soul has to feel a mite sorry for Sen. John Warner. For long years, since his election in 1978, he has lived and served as junior senator under the shadow of Harry F. Byrd, Jr. Mr. Warner’s every move and utterance have been measured, consciously or otherwide, against the stern Byrd standard of conservative purity. With becoming deference he has played out his subordinate role while at the same time quietly exercising a remarkable degree of independence. He has, in fact, "cancelled Sen. Byrd’s vote” more times than Republican strategists like to have mentioned in public. Still, Sen. Warner has decorously avoided appearing to try to upstage his senior senator. He was confident, if he waited patiently, his hour in the sun would arrive and he, himself, would become the senior senator from Virginia. When Senator-elect Paul Trible is sworn into office on the first Wednesday in January replacing the retiring Mr. Byrd, Sen. Warner’s hour will be, or at least should be. at hand. But will it? The question requires discussion. wnen senator-elect raut Trible is sworn into office on the first Wednesday in January replacing the retiring Mr. Byrd. Sen. Warner’s hour will be, or at least should be, at hand. But will it? The question requires discussion. Mr. Trible. the new junior senator-to-be, is about as unlike Harry Byrd as it is possible for two men who putatively share the same political faith — though not the same party - to be. When future historians contemplate Sen. Byrd’s accomplishments during his 17 year tenure in the Senate, they will not find the task burdensome. They will not find it so because there have not been many accomplishments. Nor has Mr. Byrd intended for there to be many. Sen. Byrd was not sent to the Senate to be an achiever. He was sent there as a symbol of the granite integrity which Virginians like to think characterizes their public servants. He was also sent as a living monument to his father; as the steely-eyed and firmjawed personification of the Commonwealth's conservative virtue. And Mr. Byrd’s conservatism is genuine. It springs from a bedrock cultural conviction. It is deep-grained; as steady as Virginia’s mighty rivers flowing over the Piedmont to the sea. In the face of all this. Sen. Warner had about as much chance of upstaging Sen. Bvrd as he would of walking into the state Capitol retounda and upstaging the Houdon statue of Washington. And so with the departure of Sen. Byrd. Sen. Warner is ready to step forward and assume the mantle of Virginia’s senior statesman. If, however, he expects deference of the kind he accorded Sen. Byrd from his new junior senator, he is likely to be disappointed. Trible-watchers in the state believe the new senator will move with considerable haste and characteristic energy to occupy a major part of the senatorial center stage. Thus Sen. Warner may find himself with a new and vastly different kind of problem on his hands. Unlike Sen. Byrd, who never considered seeking higher office, the fires of political ambition burn so intensely in Mr. Trible’s belly they can probably be seen glowing through his overcoat on a dark night. Not only is Mr. Trible ambitious, he is capable of pursuing his goals with computer like efficiency. He is very much a product of the consultant and mass marketing age of politics. Since he is, it is very difficult to determine where his basic convictions lie. If Sen. Byrd’s conservatism is deep-grained. Mr. Trible’s is more pragmatic, and more likely to be shaped by his consultant’s polling results to conform to the demands of the electorate at hand. That electorate, at least for the moment, is Virginia. Also, at least for the moment, it is Byrdconservative which is to say it is slightly to the right of being Warner-conservative. And Mr. Trible. being pragmatic..might well move to occupy that vacated Byrd turf on Sen. Warner’s right. If the newcomer should establish a foothold there. Sen. Warner might find himself in the well-nigh unthinkable position of having his record checked to see if he is cancelling Mr. Trible’s votes. i nus me rising senior senator faces a potential double challenge. One is to his role as heir to Mr. Byrd’s mantle as the state’s political philosopher-inresidence; the other is to his hope of becoming Virginia's man-in-the-spotlight in the Senate. They are challenges Sen. Warner is unlikely to suffer gladly. He is no minor league showman himself nor, it has been frequently rumored, is he entirely devoid of national political ambitions. So what Virginians have in prospect, as the Byrd era closes, is an outwardly genteel but actually hadnosed game of oneupsmanship between their two senators. That it could happen, or even be thought possible, is conclusive evidence that the Byrd era has. indeed, closed. And A Thank You To the editor I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the wonderful people of Rappahannock County for their hospitality when we were there for the recent trial I particularly want to thank Trooper Harry Newlin who was so helpful in making sure that I had access to a telephone to call witnesses for the court hearing the following morning. He was there during his off-hours as well He gave clear directions to witnesses entering and leaving the area. What a nice helpful person. Sheriff W. A. Buntin is a true asset to Rappahannock County. He is an organizer and was always pleasant even with all the confusion. He is such a gentleman and so nice to be around. «' Deputy John Codkwiki. Deputy John Woodward and Deputy John Mannion were great. They were always courteous^ and patient and sit during this long, stressful period. Just having their presence in the hall gave everyone a feeling of well being. What a great group of officers. You are indeed fortunate in Rappahannock County to have such officers and it was my pleasure to have met them. The citizens of Rappahannock County were very nice and generous to both myself and all the witnesses who came from all parts of Virginia and Washington, D.C. to testify at the trial. Your Commonwealth’s Attorney Douglas Baumgardner was so helpful and we appreciate his thoughtfulness in letting us use his office from time to time. We truly thank all of you.

He played a little street ball but it wasn’t enough so last year he got a few friends together and they secured the necessary approvals to use the high school gym once a week. Word spread about the new team in town and they were invited to play in Warren County's tournament last year. It was a rag-tag bunch that came over the mountain from Rappahannock. “We had no uniforms, no nothin’. We barely scraped up enough to pay our entry fee. All we had was one basketball and our tennis shoes,” Carter said. Nobody gave us a chance. We definitely came in as underdogs." But the eight players — Carter, Bobby Settle, Ernie Dennis, Glenn Fletcher. Robert Myers. Carl Fry, Roy Williams and Timmy Clanagan—made believers of their more organized opponents. They won their first three games by comfortable margins before dropping two contests to take third place in the tournament. This year. Carter is back with renewed determination and a team name, the Rappahannock1 Knights. They still lack uniforms and they’re still limited to onenight-a-week practices. “But several of the guys are running to help get themselves in shape and we're trying to raise money for uniforms and $300 we need to get into the Warren County league before the season starts in December,” Carter reported. As a money raising project, the Knights are giving away a stereo. For information, contact any member of the team or Buck Carter at 9878555 during business hours. Carter is also in the market for team sponsors and additional names to put on the Knights’ roster. “Anyone really interested in playing ball is invited to come out to the gym on Wednesday night between 7:30 and 9:30. Anyone is welcome." Carter said. “And we'd certainly welcome anyone interested in sponsoring the Knights." Robinson Criticizes Deer Hunt Cancellation The decision to cancel in its entirety this year's controlled deer hunt that had been scheduled at the Smithsonian’s exotic animal center near Front Royal was called "short-sighted" today by Virginia Congressman J. Kenneth Robinson, whose Seventh Congressional District includes the center and surrounding region. Reacting to the announcement by Smithsonian officials in Washington that the hunt had been called off. and that refunds would be made to hunters who had paid fees to participate. Robinson said: ‘‘It's not only a bit ter disappointment to Virginians selected for the hunt, it provides no real solution to the proble..' posed by the excessive deer population on center property. It’s clear that Smithsonian officials came to view the hunt as a legitimate moral issue, owing to their large responsibilities for the protection of wildlife. However, if the herd continues to multiply unchecked within the confines of their property. I believe they will find their proglems cruelly compounded, as available forage is eaten up. Inordinate loss of wildlife can result from the failure to follow sound game management practices. “It appears that Smithsonian officials will request an additional appropriation of $350,000 to $600,000 from the Congress to cover the costs of 12-foot fencing within certain areas at the center, and of relocating part of the herd elsewhere in Virginia. This request may be included in the 1983 Interior Appropriation bill At that time, as Virginia’s only member on the House Appropriations panel. I intend to question the willingness of the Congress to vote such sums for measures that are likely to prove ineffective and a waste of the taxpayers’ money. “Over the short term, of course^ there appears to be r—T 1 LIVESTOCK EXCHANGE 'WCPWPQWATEP REGUJLAB SALES Ewcy Tu>».

The decision has been made, and we’re stuck with it," Robinson said. Robinson had backed center officials, the Virginia Commission on Game and Inland Fisheries and others who believed the hunt was necessary to thin the herd, in testimony submitted on Nov. 4th at a Congressional hearing called by Chairman Sidney Yates (D- 111.) of the House Interior Appropriations Subcommittee. At that time, he said he had received letters or petitions from approximately 1.641 constituents protesting interference with the hunt, and three letters from constituents expressing disapproval of the hunt. In his prepared testimony, Robinson also said he believed that some constituents counted "heavily upon the hunt to provision their winter larders for their families in this period of excessive unemployment." •^AmeriGas-.

It looks like home, too, with overstuffed chairs, and comforters of antique lace, satin and silk hanging on the walls. “I’ve always worked with fabric,” Moregan said. “My grandmother was a seamstress and my mother an embroiderer.” Moregan made clothes and home furnishings until her first brush with upholstery at an interior design studio in New York. "I worked side by side with an upholsterer,” Moregan recalled. “I was utterly fascinated - I could hardly keep my mind on my work.” Years of making her living with a needle gave her a head start on her new career, and lessons at the upholstery Free Hot Dr. Pepper Free Pepsi Hot Dogs 50* Free Live Turkey Drawing November 19, 7:00 p.m. 1st prize TOM TURKEY LIVE! 2nd prize PICNIC HAM 11 ’/< lbs. 3rd prize PICNIC HAM 11 % lbs.

Since then, she's made a living doing what she loves best, upholstering and covering furniture for businesses in Washington, D. C., California and New York. "There were very few women in the business when 1 entered, and very few even now,” Moregan said. “Men ask me how I manage to haul the furniture around. That’s never been a problem,” she said, pointing out that working with furniture is more a matter of skill than muscle. There are arduous chores in the business. One of them is retying springs - a task accomplished with extra-strength cord and ropeburned fingers. Moregan routinely corrects and reties the springs on furniture she upholsters. “I’m fascinated with the basic structure of the pieces I work on,” she said. “Usually springs aren’t broken - it would be pretty hard to break a steel spring. But webbing is torn and springs poke through, throwing the whole spring structure off.” After springs are corrected and webbing repaired, a cover of burlap goes over the base. Then the stuffing is shaped. Moregan has worked with horse hair, hog hair, feathers and straw. “Some day I expect to find leaves,” she said. Over the stuffing goes a muslin cover, then over the muslin layers of cotton batting. “This is the way it’s always been done,” Moregan said. “This is the way I learned.” She said that just recently she’s seen pieces with cardboard inside as cheap methods replace some of the time-honored quality of the upholsterer’s art. Over it all goes the last layer of fabric, and this step is also given extra care. “I take a lot of time in matching if it’s needed,” Moregan said. “I’ve worked with antique fabric and terribly expensive fabric. The final product is worth it.” she have a favorite type ot iuii...ure? “I usually love each piece of fine furniture I work on,” she answers.

Moregan’s shop marks a new location for her, but not a new business. She’s been upholstering from her home for the six years she’s been in Rappahannock County. When she first came here with friends, she thought it was ‘‘the most beautiful place I had ever seen.” For a while she commuted on weekends from the city, but soon established enough of a business to live here full time. She’s at her shop regularly from Wednesdays through Saturdays from one to five. In addition to upholstered furniture in various stages of repair, Moregan has collected an assortment of antiques - both furniture and household items. In the shop she has hung some of her comforters, pieced of luxurious materials, stuffed and tacked. “I’ve hung them for display,” she said, “but they are really warm and soft to sleep under.” Moregan also sews draperies and undertakes complete interior decorating jobs. She’ll make a pillow or a comforter to order. On display at the Washington House of Antiques and Upholstery are Linda Heimstra’s bright hex signs, also for sale. There are old greeting cards, sheet music, silly paper ties, farmhouse dishes and knickknacks. In fact, the longer you stay, the more curiosities you notice.

Sunday morning, when it was just about light enough to find the telephone, one of my favorite farmers, Dabney “Chink" Eastham. called and started asking questions about corn measurement - number of bushels in a barrel, cubic feet, that sort of thing. This reminded me of last winter when I was having lunch with a group of mostly older beef cattle farmers at an area meeting. I brought up the question of how many bushels of ear corn were in a barrel. Here is the response: Frederick and Madison Counties - 7 bushels, Augusta County (in the Mennonite farming area) - 10 bushels, Rappahannock County - 9 bushels; a Rappahannock barrel weighs 370 pounds before Christmas and 350 pounds after Christmas. Another farmer wasn't sure how many bushels were in a barrel, but he knew his Chevy Luv pickup truck with a 6 ft. bed heaped full held three barrels. Ihe discussion then progressed to how many gunnysacks of ear corn and ground ear corn were in a barrel, and then to how many hills of corn were in a shock. Of course, as everyone knows, one shock will shuck out one barrel. I have been through all this before, and that is why I try to stay away from barrel measurements. Also, I have tried to work through the corn price, volume, barrel, bushel weight relationship with several people. I find this is a subject people either avoid or become emotional about. I try to avoid it. Finally, I put the problem to Dr. Ike Eller, Extension Animal Scientist and Project Leader. The solution according to Eller l'/« c. ft. equals 1 bu. of shelled com or one bu. of wheat, barley, oats, etc. 2'/i cu. ft of car corn equals 1 bu. of shelled corn plus 1 bu. of cobs. This is a cube measure, not a foot measure. Chink, I hope this answers all your questions. If it doesn’t, call ma at the office! Upholsterer Moregan Zale: This is the way it's always been done. Worms Cast Pall Over Mild Days John R. Hershey, Business Manager of the Hagerstown Town and Country Almanack which has recently published its 186th edition, the 1983 issue, predicted that folks in this area are due for a chilly winter. Hershey bases his predictions partly on the calculations of William O’Toole, weather prognosticator for the Almanack, and professor at Mt. St. Mary’s College in Emmitsburg, Md. O’Toole says that there will be at least 60 inches of snow, occurring mostly in December and February. O'Toole says that he can claim a 75 percent accuracy rate for his predictions. He added that winter will end about March 28, Finishing a winter at least as cold as last year’s, with temperatures under normal for this area. Rappahannock people enjoying Indian summer here may want to keep an eye out for wooly worms — also used by Hershey to predict winter severity for the 175,000 readers of the Almanack. Hershey was all set to appear on a program with Washington, D.C. meteorologist Bob Ryan when his two finest specimens of wooly worms, captured by Hershey and confined in paper cups, escaped to be lost forever somewhere on Hershey’s porch. To replace the wandering wooly worms, Hershey is offering a prize - two prizes, in fact. In a letter to the Rappahannock News Hershey mentioned a $25.00 cash award for the person bringing in the blackest wooly bear: and $25.00 for the person finding the wooliest wooly bear. At the time of his letter, he’d received over twenty worms, all held captive at the Almanack's Hagerstown office. Those of us lulled to complacency by this week’s mild weather may wonder at what the furry creatures revealed to Hershey. When we attempted to reach him by phone at his office, to see if his contest was still open, Hershey was gone — south for a long vacation. Almanack Reader* responded to the wooly worm controversy with these comments: Joseph S. Fishback, Madison, Wisconsin, says that the fuzzy caterpillar’s prophecies can be translated this way: “Notice the dark part on him and that will be the hardest part of the winter. Sometimes it will be on the front, this means the first part of the winter will be the hardest. Sometimes the dark will be on the tail, this means the last of the winter will be the hardest. Sometimes the dark will be in the middle, this means the middle will be the hardest.” Wayne L. Schroyer, Middletown, Md.. has a simpler means of finding the answer to the meaning of the little creatures. "Seeing black caterpillars in the fall means there is going to be a hard winter.” Another interpretation came from Mrs. George Baysinger, Rochester, Pa., "My idea of a hard winter is when you see many wooly worms in the fall with mostly black instead of brown on their back.” Effie P. Haines, Shanks, W. Va., had pretty much the same explanation of the message of the caterpillars. Elected Members Ueorge & Sandra Chamberlin, Amissville, Virginia, have been elected to membership in the American Angus Association. The American Angus Association, with some 38,000 active life and junior members, is the largest beef cattle registry association in the world. Its computerized records include detailed information on nearly 10 million registered Angus. The Association records ancestral information and keeps records of production on individual animals for its members. These permanent records help members select and mate the beat animals In their herds to produce high quality, efficient breeding cattle which are then recorded with the American Angus Association. Most of these registered Angus are used by the U.S. farmers and ranchers who raise high quality beef for U.S. consumption.

Mrs. E. M. Jones 200-Nll 18 pd ( 202LEQAL NOTICE? ) The Sperryville Historic District, Rappahannock County, will be considered by the State Review Board for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places. The National Register is the Federal Government's official list of historic properties worthy of preservation. Listing in the National Register provides recognition and assists in preserving our Nation's heritage. Listing in the National Register provides the following benefits to historic properties: —Consideration in the planning for federally assisted projects. Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 provides that the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation be given an opportunity to comment on projects affecting such properties. —Eligibility for Federal tax benefits. If a property is listed in the National Register, certain tax provisions may apply. The tax Reform Act of 1976, as amended by the Revenue Act of 1978 and the Tax Treatment Extension Act of 1980, and the Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981, contain provisions intended to encourage the preservation of depreciable historic structures by allowing favorable tax treatments for rehabilitation, and to discourage destruction of historic buildings by eliminating certain Federal tax provisions for demolition of historic structures. Be ginning January 1, 1982, the Economic Recovery Tax Act replaces the rehabilitation tax incentives available under prior law with a 25 percent investment tax credit for rehabilitations of certain historic commercial, industrial and residential rental buildings. This can be combined with a 15-year cost recovery period for the ad justed basis of the historic building. Historic buildings with certified rehabilitations receive additional tax savings because they are exempt from any requirement to reduce the basis of the building by the amount of credit. The Tax Treatment Extension Act of 1980 includes provisions regarding charitable con tributions for conservation purposes of partial interests in historically important land ar-es or structures.

Deer around the county took to the hills this week with the opening of the hunting season. But before they made themselves scarce, a couple of adventuresome bucks struck one last blow, leaving Patrick O’Connell and Reinhart Lynch, proprietors of The Inn at Little Washington, with a Ripley’s-Believe- It-Or-Not story. Lynch was on his way home in the early morning hours Sunday after closing their Washington restaurant. Driving down Route 231 in the F. T. Valley, he was totally unprepared for the uninvited four-legged hitchhiker that leapt from a bluff overhanging the road way and crashed through the windshield on the passenger’s side of the car. The deer catapulted back out almost instantaneously, covering Lynch with hagged shards of glass. Despite having just a piece of a windshield flap where once there was a whole windshield. Lynch managed to cover the last five miles, hanging out the door to follow the center line down the highway. Once home, he climbed in to O’Cconnell’s sedan for the trip to Fauquier Hospital for stiches. “We passed the carcass —it was big as a horse!” O’Connell reported. He added that he kept his foot just barely touching the gas pedal and his eyes on the road side until they reached the dual lane highway. “I relaxed a little and speeded up.

I was driving verrrry slowly when one turned, bolted like a strike of lightning, ran directly in front of my car and exploded into pieces!” That was the end of O’Connell’s careful driving. After checking to see that the car was still operable, he put the pedal to the metal for the last few miles. But the arrival at Fauquier Hospital didn't mark the end of the ordeal. “Then we had to listen to joke after joke about venison under glass!” laughed The Inn’s chef. Down by two cars, they managed to avoid a third confrontation on their return home Sunday night from the restaurant. This time, they saw the buck in time to avoid the animal. “Reinhart couldn't believe it. He kept insisting. ‘That’s a horse! That’s a horse!’,” O’Connell said. The two men had the last laugh on their four-legged adversaries, however. "We got even. The next day, we gave hunting permits to all our neighbors!"
