Rappahannock News, January 13, 1983

Since 1877 33rd YEAR, NO. 2 USPS 455580 10 Pages THURSDAY. JANUARY 13. 1983 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA Phone 675-3349 25* BZA Grants Variance, Permit Extension Requests By THERESA REYNOLDS Rappahanm»rk Nt»ww Staff Writer Current Board of Zoning Appeals Chairman Benjamin Lee Bird was re-elected chairman and Sharon Genebach Luke, the board’s newest member, elected vicechainiian at the BZA’s first meeting of the new year Thursday. Appearing, before the BZA were Martin Whorton to request a variance for a storage shed on his land in Amissville, and Peter Quinn, assistant headmaster at Wakefield, to ask for an extension of a special use permit granted in November for Wakefield Manor which serves as a boys dormitory for the private school. Martin Whorton had been denied a'building permit for his shed because it would be slightly less than ten feet from the property line as required by zoning ordinance setback regulations. His oneacre plot of land is surrounded by pi-operty owned by his father, Roy Whorton. Whorton’s dilemma was created by the slope of his land. He told the board that he had either to construct the « shed less than ten feet front)/ the line or fill in the ground beneath the shed to make it level at an expense that would surpass the cost of the building. There was another level spot on the land, Whorton explained, but that is intended as the site of his future home. He told the board that the shed, supported by poles, would house equipment and material that he will need to build his residence. In their findings, a majority of the board determined that the construction of the shed more than ten feet from the property line would constitute a hardship for the applicant. A dissenting vote was cast by Peter Kramer who said that, while, he knew and respected Whorton and wanted him to be able to build his shed, he couldn’t find the applicant's case to constitute a hardship under the ordinance. “But I hope the others can,’’ Kramer added. His fellow board members, Bird, George Muth and Luke, agreed that there was a hardship. The board was unanimous in finding that the application was made in good faith and that no adjacent property would be adversely affected. Whorton was granted the variance with no conditions. Compliance Delayed A string of misfortunes, (Continued on Page 2) Index Salary Vote Ends In Tie By THERESA REYNOLDS Rappahannock !Ncw» Staff Writer The vote on the proposed index salary scale ended in a tie at uesday’s school board meeting, with Nancy Reeve and Beverly Massie voting for 'the adoption of the scale and Nelson Lane and Robert Eastham voting against it. Randall Updike, Hampton District member, was not present. Board chairman Massie alloted time for each member to speak for or against the motion, framed at the board’s December meeting. The question before the board was: the Rappahannock school board approves the adoption of an index salary scale for all employees for ^he 1983-84 school year. The index salary scale provides regular step increases from the first year of service up to the sixteenth year, with all. salaries presented as percentages of the base, or beginning salary. The proposal before the board has been sought by Rappahannock teachers for three years and by the current school board administration. Richard Smith, president of the Rappahannock Education Association, a teachers’ group, told the board that the proposal had the full support of the association and had received only support from nonassociation teachers. Speaking first for the board was Nelson Lane, one of the two members of the committee that prepared the index salary scale presented to the board at its last meeting. He first asked Robert Estabrook, school superintend ent, for clarification of his position. Estabrook emphasized his support for the specific index salary scale supported by Rappahannock teachers for the past three years, as presented and explained in December. “Obviously, there are other sets of indices that would be suitable,” Estabrook said, “but these are reasonable, plausible ratios. The system is needed from an administrative point of view, both for financial control and for personnel management.” Lane continued his presentation. He said that, while he supported the idea of giving employees some kind of security, he felt that the index system would tend to obscure the cream of the crop. “We must have a definite ratio,” he said. “A poor teacher should expect poor pay - a good teacher should expect good pay. This should not be tied into years of service, but rather to performance.” Lane said that if, as he expected, Rappahannock was forced to hold the bottom line on teachers’ salaries, the distribution outlined in the index pay scale would drive the starting teachers’ salary down more than $400 below present rates, preventing the county from attracting capable new teachers. "This plan presents no logic. rational or management plan,” he said. “I must oppose it.” Eastham spoke next, repeating Lane's argument that the index would penalize new teachers, “It would be inherently unfair,” he said. Y It/ takes money from the pockets of new teachers to reward seniority.” His concern, as Lane’s, was that application of the scale to a stable budget total would greatly reduce salaries available for new teachers. “The teachers would take it in the neck for several years,” he said. ’“There would be a cut' in every step up to nine years.” While his figures differed from Lane’s, Eastham said they presented “the same nightmare.” “It’s the amount of money that’s important to teachers, anyway,” he said, “not the relationship to the base.” In addition, Eastham said, the index would “stonewall the movement for accountability, setting up a system like the federal civil service, where just waiting achieves benefits.” In addition, Eastham said, an index plan should not include all employees, the timing of the index vote when revenue figures were not known was bad, and the index increases in this particular schedule were arbitrary. “I vote to reject this plan,” he said. “If a miracle occurs, we can consider the plan again." In the second round of arguments, Eastham added that the teachers began to push for the plan when the inflation rate began to decrease. “I predict a 4.5 percent inflation rate for this year,” he said. “In the past, we have tied our increases to the rate of inflation. When it appeared last spring that inflation would not rise so (Continued on Page 3) In Sheriffs Race Orfila Joins Parade To Starting Line The lanes are filling fa's!an the race for the Rappahannock sheriffs post. This week, Martin Orfila joined the parade of candidates that already includes former sheriff John Walker Ibnkins and former deputy Mark E. Wittl. “The hats are dropping fast so I thought I’d better get up here,” Orfila said, in announcing his candidacy to the Rappahannock News on Monday. Orfila served first as corrections officer under Jenkins and then was promoted to road deputy. When Jenkins was defeated by current incumbent W. A. Buntin in 1975, the new 1 sheriff retained Orfila on his staff. In 1978, Orfila resigned from the sheriffs department to join the Virginia State Martin Orfila Police. After a week of instruction at the State Police Academy and probationary training in Campbell County, he graduated in December, 1978, and was assigned to Fairfax until 1961 when he was transferred to the new Arlington area. Orfila has been a member of the SWAT team tactical unit and served as an instructor in first aid and firearms. He was one of the first field training officers to oversee new troopers during their conditional appointment under a program developed in 1982. The former Rappahannock deputy also initiated and developed ^ pilot program for enforcement of drunk driving laws for his division. “Drivers who are under the influence of alcohol present a very serious problem,” Orfila said, adding that a trooper friend had been killed by a drunk driver. A leader in his division in making DUI (Driving Under the Influence) arrests, Orfila has given (Continued on Page 2) Del.

Jenkins Pleads Guilty To Welfare Fraud Jenny May Jenkins pleaded guilty to a welfare fraud misdemeanor in circuit court on Monday and was given a 12 months jail sentence. Acting on the recommendation of Commonwealth’s Attorney Douglas Baumgardner, Judge Shore Robertson suspended the jail term on condition of her good behavior and compliance with Virginia laws for a one-year period. Baumgardner noted that the 48-year-old resident of Castleton had no prior criminal record. In addition, he said, she had made full restitution prior to the issuance of an indictment for the $200 or less in public assistance to which she was not entitled. As part of his sentence, Judge Robertson barred Jenkins from receiving public assistance for a two year period beginning from her next application. Robertson also accepted a plea agreement worked out between the commonwealth’s attorney and Russell M. Racer. Racer pleaded guilty to operating a motor vehicle after having been declared an habitual offender, a felony offense. Limits for punishment under Virginia law are Qne to five years in the penitentiary or 12 months in jail with no portion of the sentence suspended: Robertson sentenced Racer to a year in the penitentiary but recommended] that the (Continued on Rage 2) Need Information On Schools On January 27, we will run the first of our monthly series celebrating the 150th (sesquicentennial) birthday of Rappahannock County.

J Rabies Clinic Set The rabies innoculation clinic for dogs scheduled by Rappahannock Dog Warden Jack Bruce on Saturday, January 22, underscores concern among health officials over the recent outbreak of the desease in Virginia. According to a letter from Grayson Miller, director of the State Health Department’s division of epidemiology, rabies “can be expected to persist as a chronic problem in. the counties affected even \fter the initial epidemic has subsided.” The 676 cases of rabies verified in Virginia in 1982 constitutes the largest number since record keeping began in 1942. Since mid 1981 when the current outbreak began, rabid racoons and-or skunks have been found in J9 counties, according to the letter from Grayson, copies of which were distributed to the Rappahannock supervisors at their January 3 meeting. The local health Department reports that three cases of rabies in wild animals have been verified in Rappahannock in 1981 and 1982. But the number of cases can increase markedly over a very short time period, Grayson noted.' Therefore, the disease “poses a serious health threat to citizens residing in both the affected counties and contiguous localities which have not yet (Continued on Page 4) Guest Sees Money As Major Issue But Minor Problem By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Vw Suff Writer. The big story expected in the 1983 General Assembly session will be money, judging from reports on^he $200-5300 million shortfall anticipated by Virginia Governor Charles Robb. While Delegate Raymond R. "Andy” Guest stops short of characterizing Robb’s financial concerns as much ado about nothing, he maintains that the money problem may have been overblown into too much ado about next to nothing. “The latest figure I’ve heard is $200 million for (he biennium. That’s out of a budget of ^$11 -SI2 billion. I don’t know what that works out to on a percentage basis but it’s not a whole lot,” Guest said in a telephone interview from his home Monday afternoon. Using Guest’s numbers, the shortfall will be between 1.6 and 1.8 percent, assuming revenue conies in as projected and spending is maintained at current levels. ‘*1 think this administration is making the problem bigger than it really is,” Guest said, recalling that former Governor Mills Godwin had faced a similar revenue crunch. According to Guest, Godwin cut two-anda-half to five percent across the board from expenditures and followed that up with additional selected reductions in order to balance the slate’s budget. “Yes, we're short of money. We’re below expectations but we've got more than we had last year," noted the Front Royal farmer and businessman. Whether or not the revenue shortfall has been overstated. Guest doesn’t beltb^e that a hike in taxes is the solution to the problem, not in the midst of a recession. "You don't tax yourself oul of hard limes," he said. Last year, educational programs were held involate when the General Assembly took an axe to budget proposals. Instead of cutting aid to education, the legislators even upped support to localities, joining Gov. Robb in urging that the additional funds be committed to raising teacher salaries by ten percent each year of the biennium. Since funding education is a joint responsibility of the stale and localities, the balance of the money to provide the ten percent pay increases had to come from city, county and town coffers. "Some localities gave more than ten percent, some gave considerably less than ten percent,” Guest noted. As a result of that (Continued on Page 3) ADC Mothers Enter Job Seeker Ranks In the past decade, welfare departments have become a convenient target for critics of so-called government giveaways. But new requirements which took effect January 1 should improve the public's perception of one frequently targeted social service program. As of that date, all registrants for ADC (Aid to Dependent Children) grants must make a job search before their application for assistance can be approved. And with that requirement to actively seek a job comes a provision for training. “We’re enthusiastic and anxious to get started with this new program,” said Sylvia Kreitler, Rappahannock's welfare department supervisor. “We’ll be trying to instill working skills, responsibility and job habits in people who haven’t worked in years.” Requirements call for all new ADC registrants to look for work, as evidenced by three to four job contacts. Every six months, the search must be repeated for recertification. Those already receiving ADC must also embark on a job search as part of semi-annual eligibility recertification procedures. “It’s designed to promote self-sufficiency,” explained social worker Mary Wilkins. “They can look where ever they choose. There doesn’t have to be an opening.” “Most of the jobs on the market are not advertised,” noted Kreitler. “Only 15 percent of (he openings show up in the ‘help wanted’ ads. Our job will be to help ADC recipients find that other 85 percent.” The requirement to look for work is only the first part of the new program. Wilkins will complete an assessment on each ADC applicant to determine what type of job is suitable. “If she doesn't fit into a job, then we’ll consider work experience or training," the social worker noted. Work experience is designed to help someone train for a job. Under this component, ADC recipients are placed for six-month terms with public and private non-profit businesses and agencies as office helpers, receptionists, custodians, cafeteria workers and the like. The amount of hours that the welfare clients must sperithon the job is determined by dividing the current minimum wage into the amount of their ADC grant. “They’ll be working for the money they receive," Wilkins pdtnled out. She noted that the state will cofer workers' compensation for the job experience trainees. On a more limited basis, educational—components, possibly through area vocational schools, may be included. In addition, Rappahannock’s welfare department will hook up with the Job Shop in Warrenlon and local "7(),(X)I ” offices, both organizations which train people to apply lor job. Most of our clients lack job seeking skills," Kreitler said. "They need to learn how to write a resume, how to conduct themselves at an interview, what kind of job to apply for." The welfare staff wifi also be working with th.e Job Training Partnership Act, a partnership with private employers to provide training for economically disadvantaged adults and youth, others who face barriers to employment and dislocated workers. There is an exception to the requirement to actively seek employment. ADC recipients who have children under six years of age do not have to participate unless they are consistently separated from (heir children during the week, according to Wilkins. But if the children are over six years old and in school or younger and at a babysitters, then*lhe ADC recipient must look for a job or be receiving training or work experience. “If they refuse to participate and they cannot show good cause, then they’ll be sanctioned,” ICrfcjjtler _ said. “That means that the head of the household won’t receive her share of the grant but the assistance payment for the children will continue." A total of $1,500 has been allocated for the new program in Rappahannock. "Thai’s basically to cover (Continued on Page 2) — Rappahannock Nawa Phopi/T.

In addition, the welfare department may help subsidize child care for a short period after a full-time job is secured. The new requirements do not entail investigative duties to determine if the ADC recipients are actually looking for employment. As part of their job search, welfare clients will take a short form for employers they've checked with to complete. Kreitler reported that she will be notifying some local employers of the new program by letter. “I realize we’ll be putting a burden on businesses by sending people to them,” she said. Currently, the county has a total of eight ADC recipients who will have to participate in order to retain their share of ADC grants. Kreitler projected that the new "program will eventually have ten to fifteen enrollees. "And we'll accept voluntary registrants,” Wilkins added. “It’s well and good if an ADC mother with a child under five wants to participate." “It’s a broad program and we’ll be beginning on a trial and error basis." Uje social worker continued. \We’ll have to lake one oY two people thro ugh. j heprOgram. We have guidelines but a lot is up to us. We have to see how we want it to work in our county.” “We have a great deal of freedom,” Kreitler agreed. ‘‘We’re asking the community to cooperate with us. If employers have jobs, before advertising, call us. Some of our people already have the necessary skills and others can learn,” she said, adding that the welfare office may even advertise particularly skilled clients for jobs. Participating in this new program, whether as a client or an employer, will be mutually beneficial, according to the welfare supervisor. “They’ll be doing themselves and the community a service.” Kreitler said. A fire command school for officers in volunteer fire companies will be held this weekend and next, January 15, 16, 22 and 23, at the Flint Hill firehouse. The 30-hour course will begin this Saturday at 8 a.m. with volunteers from Rappahannock and surrounding counties participating.

Rappahannock Farmer’s Co-op Sperryville, Va. 987-8555 Carl James James Is County’s Top Firefighter Rappahannock’s firefighter of the year for 1982 has smoke in his blood. Carl James, who received his award at the county Fire and Rescue Association-’s annual party Friday night, is the son of Lester “Brax” James. “My father was a volunteer with Amissville for almost as long as I can remember. He was chief for eight years. I doubt if I would have kept up my involvement without his leadership and example,” James said. “He and Paul Poling Vamd the county’s (fire an\l rescue) association and the fire school. I just more or less followed in his footsteps.” Brax James left a big pair of boots but his son fills those boots admirably. He’s been a volunteer with the Amissville company for 16 years. “Since I was 13 years old and a junior firefighter,” Carl added. He’s held every position f^fcii lieutenant to assistant chief and currently is president of the community's fire and rescue unit and captain of the rescue squad. James is one of three slate certified fire instructors in the entire county and one of three shock trauma technicians at Amissville. He's currently taking a cardiac technician’s,course to qualify him to ride with Flint Hill's advance life support ambulance. A farmer who was born and raised in Rappahannock, James served a four-year stint as a paid firefighter with Chesterfield County where he advanced to the position of sargeant in a truck company. Although he lived in the Richmond area from 197781, he maintained his involvement with emergency service work back home, commuting to the annual fire school and other fire and rescue activities. The award for firefighter of the year is sponsored by Col. Ottie Rawls, a former member of the Chester Gap Volunteer Fire Department. Each of the county’s six companies nominates an individual and the winner is chosen by the Rappahannock Fire and Rescue Association’s board of directors. Jenkins .

' BZA Grants Variance (Continued from Page 1) including not being able to locate the well at Wakefield Manor, prevented Wakefield School from complying with health regulations, Peter Quinn, assistant headmaster, told the board. Quinn were asking for an extension of a special user permit necessary for the boy’s boarding facility to remain open. No one, including Colonel Robert Dickey and Lelia Lucas, owners of the land, and Larry LeHew, who drilled the well, was able to locate the well in order to examine it for compliance with health department regulations, according to Quinn. This, in turn, prevented the completion of a new septic system, Quinn explained. since a determination of the relationship of well to drain field was necessary to proceed. In desperation, Quinn was about to move the boys to Flint Hill, he, said, when a transaction the school was pursuing there stalled and an eleventh - hour search of the pump house revealed a sketch of the well site on the wall. Now, Quinn said, the search is narrowing, septic plans have been completed, and full compliance is around the corner. In addition, the boys will soon be eating all meals at Somarbeth, Wakefield’s girls’ dormitory, from a kitchen that the new owners are bringing up to code, thus fulfilling that health requirement, Quinn said. The compliance ot bomaroetn with other health department standards was assumed, but not vertified as certainty by Quinn. In response to questioning, Quinn said that sewage from Wakefield Manor is collected in two settling tanks but Sheriff (Continued from Page 1) many safety talks on the dangers of drunk driving to high school and civic groups in the Arlington and Fairfax areas. As a combative tool against DUI, he proposed a selective enforcement program under which a trooper on patrol is given the sole mission of watching for drunk drivers during specified time periods in high risk areas. “I was able to convince my supervisors to try it,” Orftla said. “The program’s been long needed," he maintained, noting that in Fairfax it takes approximately 2Vi hours to book an individual on a drunk driving charge. Despite his success with the State Police in Arlington and a recent offer of assignment to the governor’s detail, Orfila presented his resignation on Monday, effective February 7. “I love the county, I love the community and I love the personal contact (of law enforcement work here),” Orftla said, explaining his decision to seek election as; Rappahannock’s sheriff. “Asj a trooper, I gained a lot of experience but I constantly' thought about Rappahannock County. This is my golden opportunity to come back. I missed the county. I’m going to run no matter how many candidates enter the field.” Orfila will be moving back to the Harris Hollow area as soon as possible and will be visiting the county one or two „times a week until his last day with the Stale Police. “There are a lot of people here who don’t know me.

In severe cold weather we see a rash of foot problems. In our office we see'’a number of people with symptoms of frostbite. Most people don’t realize that the damage to the foot can happen rather quickly, especially if your circulation is already compromised to begin with. One elderly woman developed symptoms of frost bite because she was a native of Florida and the lowered temperatures in a house heated only with a woodstove in the back rooms proved to be too cold for her.,People who smoke, especially women, are prone to a spasm of the vessels that enter the toes in reaction to the cold and this can worsen the problems, Also diabetic patients who have some loss of feeling in their feet have been burned by keeping their feet too close to a hot wood stove.

NOTICE OF PROPOSED RULES GOVERNING EXPEDITED RATE INCREASES FILINGS ' PY ELECTRIC COOPERATIVES The Virginia State Corporation Commission announced on December 17, 1982 new proposed rules which would govern requests for expedited rate increases sought by electric cooperatives. The proposed rules are designed to curb the financial deterioration currently being experienced by some cooperatives and to assist all Virginia cooperatives in obtaining, and maintaining, the capability to finance at the lowest cost to its members. The proposals would allow the cooperatives to put in effect limited interim rate increases. Under the proposed rules, the increase is limited to 10% of annual revenues and further limited to the amount required to provide coverage of the interest on the cooperative’s long term debt of no more than two and one-half times. In addition, the cooperative is limited to the ratemaking limitations established in prior rate cases in calculating the amount of increase. As a final safeguard, the rules provide that any increase which violates the rules will be refunded and that the cooperative may be precluded from filing for expedited rate relief for a prescribed period of time. Public notice of the increase is required on or before the date the rates are put in effect, and any customer may request to be heard by the Commission on the increase. Within six months of the date the increase goes into effect, the Commission’s Staff will investigate the increase and file a report of its investigation. Other provisions of the proposed rules address the area of rate * design and treatment of prior wholesale power cost increases. The text of the proposed rules can be examined at the Commission’s Document Control Center, Floor Bl, Jefferson Building, Bank and Governor Streets, Richmond, Virginia, and at the business offices of each cooperative where customer bills may be paid. These proposed rules will be considered separately from the rules pending in Case No. PUE820056, which will be limited solely to investor-owned utilities. Interested persons may submit written comments on the proposed rules on or before January 31, 1983, by writing William C. Young, Clerk, Virginia State Corporation Commission, P.0.

Guest Sees Money As Major Issue But Minor Problem v'-vmiuuvu 11U1II IT «lgC If disparity, the Virginia Educational Association will ask the legislature this session for some way to ensure that all teachers get their ten percent raises. Guest expressed doubt that such a measure could win passage and questioned further whether a mandate to localities to increase teacher pay would be constitutional. “The General Assembly can suggest but I don’t think we can order.” While the Front Royal delegate doesn’t expect state aid for education to be increased, neither does he expect financial support from Richmond to be reduced in this election year. “I think state aid will be maintained at present levels,” he said. But Guest predicted that Standards of Quality criteria on classroom enrollment will be frozen, as a cost-saving measure delaying the next downward step until some time in the future. Ban Non-Returnable* Another battle in this year’s assembly will center around a bottle bill that will be introduced again by Sen. Madison E. May re (DMontgomery). He proposes a deposit of at least ten cents on bottles and cans and a ban on non-returnable beverage containers. Mayre maintains that the ban will lower the price of beverages and save the state millions of dollars in highway cleanup costs. Guest supports the bottle bill, lining up with the Farm Bureau, environmentalists and conservationists against the powerful beer and soft drink industry lobby. “I haven’t seen Oregon but I’ve seen Vermont and Maine (both states with bottle legislation similar to what Mayre has proposed),” Guest said. Paying a deposit on returnable bottles may be “a minor pain” but passage of Mayre’s bill will leave Virginia “a whole lot cleaner,” the delegate added. “We’ll have bottle picking up on the highways,” he maintained, noting that it currently costs the Virginia Department of Highways and Transportation approximately $1.2 million per REALTY WORLDdt. ‘Estate RCA1TO* MILLIONAIRES AND REAL ESTATE The number of millionaires in the U.S. keeps rising. The latest estimate is that there are now about 240,000 persons with net assets of over a million dollars. This amounts to one tenth of one percent of the population but in total assets this small band owns a staggering 417 billion dollars worth of property after deducting for debts. That is 12 percent of all the personal net worth in the U.S. The idea that these wealthy people put a large part of their assets into State and local bonds to escape federal income tax turns out to be a myth. Tax exempt securities actually account for less than 5 percent of their net assets and about the same proportion as their holdings of taxable Treasury bonds. Investment in real estate is far larger, accounting for about 12 percent of the millionaires’ wealth. Increases in property values undoubtedly have played a large role in the creation of new millionaires, especially in recent years when the stock market has been through a series of sharp ups and downs without registering any substantial long-term gain in values.

Revisions to conflict of interest laws proposed by Attorney General Gerald Baliles call for a legislative inquiry and review commission to investigate complaints involving General Assembly members. The attempt to establish an independent legislative ethics commission promises to be unpopular with the legislators who prefer to police themselves. Noting that he hasn’t read the attorney general’s proposal. Guest said he has no problem with adequacy of current procedures which call for the House of Delegates’ privileges and elections committee to look into alleged misconduct of its members. As to the package of anticrime bills supported by Baliles and Gov. Robb, Guest’s reaction is mixed. “I’ve* seen parts of it and parts of it are pretty good,” he said. He’s opposed to broadening the state’s wiretapping powers, as proposed by Robb and Baliles, and doubts if modification of the exclusionary rule (which bars use of evidence seized illegally by police) should be considered when that same issue is currently before the federal court. “I’m not sure it’s the proper time, not when we’re waiting for an answer from the federal court,” Guest said. He’s in favor of giving the prosecution limited right of appeal in criminal cases. Early Parole In a crime-related issue, Building? •Paint •Lumbar <"i:. •Mlllwork * * •Hardware' CMptota Oaa-Stap BUILDING SUPPLY Warranton Building Haturlal Co., Inc. aa tba ly-Pass Warraataa 347-1408 according to the Richmond papers, the Robb administration may push for legislation which would permit non-violent offenders to be paroled earlier. For several months, 'the governor’s ad-hoc committee has been looking into the parole law changes as a means of alleviating serious overcrowding in state prisons. Guest has misgivings about easing parole standards. “It all depends on the type of criminal we’re talking about. What’s non-violent crime? Breaking and entering? That could be non-violent only because nobody was home when the criminal broke in.” If laws governing parole eligibility are eased, Guest would like to see a screening requirement added similar to screening now being conducted prior to participation in local alternative service programs. “Automatics bother me,” he said, voicing opposition to legislation which would make certain classifications of non-violent offenders automatically eligible for early parole. “ Each individual offender should be considered on a personal basis," Guest said. A “death with dignity” bill will come up in the General Assembly again' this year. The legislation recommended by a special study commissioned would give a person being kept alive by artificial means the right to order an end to those efforts. Guest noted that the bill, which is strongly opposed by some religious leaders, has been redubbed “The Natural Act.” “I’m not sure that the right to death with dignity has to be institutionalized into law. I think we may already have that right. But if it needs to be in the law, then I support it,” he said. In the face of stiffer competition between localities for declining highway money, odds are high that this session of the General Assembly will see an effort to alter the state’s allocation formula. “I think Pandora better not open that box,’’ warned Guest, referring to rural localities jumping on the change-theformula bandwagon. With the power in the legislature resting with urban centers. Guest predicted that any changes will be designed to benefit those same centers as well as rapidly growing districts. “I can’t foresee any Lets (go Antiquing jj^hetfiwftt’s a lazy drive to the country or a trip into the city...lf your hobby ie searching for ^precious collectibles, or you’re trying to replace Grandma’s old rocker, you’ll find what you’re looking for right here.

Uranium, Taxes, Water On other issues likely to come up in the General Assembly session which begins this week. Guest: —supports an extension of the statewide moratorium on uranium mining. ‘‘They haven’t convinced me that they’re not going to contaminate ground water,” said the Front Royal delegate. — supports enabling legislation that would permit localities to levy a local tax on transient lodging (hotels, motels and boarding houses) and restaurant receipts. He noted, however, that local governments should be aware that a restaurant tax will affect local residents more than tourists. —supports inclusion of a balanced budget requirement in Virginia’s constitution and also endorses a constitutional cap on state spending. —opposes a bill which would permit interbasin transfers of water, legislation sought by the rapidly growing Hampton Roads communities. In the area of land use legislation. Guest expects to see proposals arising from the General Assembly’s recent study on the powers of local governments. “But I don’t know what they’ll be,” he added. As of last Friday, the Division of Legislative Services had received 1,050 bill and resolution drafting requests. Director John A. Banks said he anticipated 1,000 or more additional requests before the anticipated Jan. 19 cut-off. In the 1982 60-day Assembly session, 1,403 bills and resolutions were introduced. According to Banks, the number in this year’s 46-day short session should approach last year’s total. Jail Money . Several of the bills will be Guest’s. He re-affirmed on Monday that he will seek to have reimbursement for Rappahannock’s jail renovation, as allowed by state law, restored to the budget. On behalf of Warren County, Guest will push for authorization for variances to subdivision ordinances. (Currently, variances are only allowed to zoning ordinances.) At the request of Clarke County, he will introduce legislation requiring the State Department of Taxation to take land use value into account in developing its composite index. Guest said he also expects to co-sponsor a bill with George Beard, Rappahannock's delegate before redistricting, “to get road hunters off the roads and out into the fields and forests where hunters belong.” What that means, he explained, is that he and Beard will push for a cased gun law—if not statewide then at least as a local option under enabling legislation. "Well count noses to see if there's any reason to try for a statewide law." he said. Guest will travel to Richmond, this week for the start of the 46-day session. He can be contacted by telephone at (804) 786-7395. Mail should <f>c addressed to him at 720 General Assembly Building. State Capitol. Richmond. Virginia. 23219. Keep those cards and letters flowing, by all means—the earlier the better," he concluded. Vote finds In Tie (Continued from Page 1) rapidly, the teachers started to really support an index system.” Reeve spoke in favor of adoption of the scale. "Security means not just what you bring home in a paycheck.” she said, “but wrhat you can plan on and count on for several years. The teachers do not have that ability now. I’m very much in favor of giving our teachers that security by adopting this index.” Massie added her support to the motion before the board. “We have investigated this scale from every possible angle,” she said. "With it, we will have control of the bottom line, using available funds to distribute in a logical manner.” Massie said that she did not see the scale as interferring with rewarding good teachers. “We’re always evaluating teachers,” she said. “They understand their duties. It’s not fair to say that an index system rewards teachers for nothing. It simply gives us all a rational system. Our teachers want this. They understand its implications." After another round of statements the school board recorded its tie vote. Two teachers in the audience asked to address the board. Diane Wood, RCES teacher, addressed her comments to Lane and Eastham. “1 graduated in the top of my class at William and Mary.” she said. “Can you imagine how I feel after several years of being insulted by board members who don’t even know the plural of medium. The “cream of the crop” you refer to— those teachers want this index scale." Lynn Baines, seventh grade teacher, took exception to Eastham’s remarks abotit the teachers’ inters) in the pay scale being tied into the leveling off of the inflation rale. “You will remember, we asked for (his three years ago. when (he inflation rate was (he highest." she said. "If you keep the teachers you have, with a fair pay scale, (hen you don't have to he so worried about attracting new teachers.

This meeting is set for January 18 when the board will also open bids for the school board office-bus shop and discuss revision of Series 5 of the policy manual.

Published by Warrenton Printing & Publishing Company, Inc. Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation «► Thursday, January 13,1983 Safe Hunting The reign of terror that marred past hunting seasons in Rappahannock County was not repeated this year. We didn’t have to contend with truckloads of hoodlums cruising the county, turning their dogs loose onto posted property to drive deer onto the roads where lawbreakers waited with guns ready. We didn’t have to deal with terrorists who forced motorists into roadside ditches and threatened or assaulted protesting landowners. Maybe the disappearance of the slob hunters is attributable to an increase in the bag limit on the other side of the mountains. The greater incidence of violations during the last two weeks of the season when hunting stopped west of the Blue Ridge seems to indicate that this might be at least part of the reason. But we’d like to think that some of the credit goes to the hunters themselves. We believe that local sportsmen have taken the first step toward policing their own ranks here in Rappahannock. We believe that peer pressure combined with public outrage over past abuses sparked the decline of illegal road hunting here. We hope that the trend continues and widens to combat the continuing problem with trespass violations during hunting season. And we have some suggestions aimed at assisting in the spread of good hunting ethics. Del. Raymond R. “Andy” Guest reports that he will co-sponsor cased gun legislation with Del. George Beard of Culpeper. We urge Rappahannock residents write letters of support for the bill, whether it proposes a statewide cased gun law or enabling legislation which will allow adoption as a local option. We urge the county supervisors to again consider —and this time adopt — a local ordinance which would prohibit the carrying of a loaded rifle or shotgun in a motor vehicle on a public right-of-way. We urge landowners and individuals who witness acts of illegal hunting to report the incidents and appear in court to give testimony. And finally, we urge those who carry guns in fields and forests to complete a hunter safety course, for their own safety as well as foi the protection of the rest of us. Hunter safety courses do more than promote good hunting ethics, they may also save the life of a hunter. Of the 64 accidents reported so far this year, 36 of those injured and eight of those killed ha<| not undergone any formal hunters education course. If hunters and non-hunters alike join together in the effort, we can keep Rappahannock a safe place to live during next year’s season. This Was The News _In Bygone Rappahannock Times... 33 YEARS AGO RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS MR. ADLER joined the Barter Theatre in the production of J.B. Priestly’s play “Dangerous Corner”. The play appeared at the Washington High School Auditorium and was sponsored by the American Legion. Mr. Adler’s appearance with the Barter Players was made possible due to the slow season in Hollywood and to this production’s limited engagement. Mrs. E.R. Browning and Mrs. John S. Browning were joint hostesses to the Flint Hill Garden Club which met at their home in Flint Hill on Wednesday afternoon. The flower arrangements consisted of house plants. Mrs. John S. Browning’s exhibit of a potted coleus plant received the second highest score. It was unanimously resolved by the Board of Supervisors of Rappahannock County that all toll charges be removed for calls made within the County. The Board respectfully requested that the phone companies (Virginia Telephone & Telegraphy Company and the Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Company) abolish toll charges for such calls. Telephone toll charges between the various Districts are disunifying for the County the Supervisors claimed. 24 YEARS AGO RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS WINNERS of the Christmas Lighting Contest for Flint Hill, Sperry ville, and Washington were announced. The contest was sponsored by the Methodist Youth Fellowship. The winners at Flint Hill were Mrs. Mary Alice Pullen, first prize and Mrs. Myrtle Dennis, second prize. In Sperryville, Mrs. George Taylor placed first and Mrs. L.J. Kilby placed second. In Washington, Mrs. Lewis J. Turner won first and Mrs. Morgan Johnston, second The following officers were elected for the Castleton Community Volunteer Fire Company: President, General Noce; V-President, Ray Cannon; Secretary, Hawey Hitt; Treasurer, Carl Raub; Chief, Charles Gasch; Ass’t. Chief, Alpheus Cannon; Captain, Charlie Settle; Lieutenant, Frank Grimsely; Fire Marshal, Moffet Cloud. 21 YEARS AGO RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS EDWARD F. Clatterbuck of Arlington, Va. killed an albino deer in Gid Brown Hollow. As far as is known this deer was the first of its kind killed in the county. J.W. Critzer of Washington, Va., resigned as sheriff of Rappahannock County, an office which held for eleven and a ’ half years. Mr. Critzer was appointed by judge J.R.H. Alexander on May 18, 1950, to fill the unexpired term of James Lillard, ending Dec. 31, 1951. He duly qualified before the Clerk of the Court, James M. Settle, and took the oath of office the same day. Thereafter, he was re-elected 3 times before resigning. The Mosby Rangers defeated the Rappahannock Panthers when the teams met on the Mosley Court. The final score was 40-30. The Panthers were well-paced until the game’s closing moments. Deal was high man for the Panthers. Exhilarating Experience To the editor We want to thank the many people of Flint Hill and Washington for their contribution to the first class of SPECTRA School of Design. Many, many hours and ideas have been given by people of the community. We want to especially thank the following for their help: Werner Krebser, Will Hoare, Nol Putnam, Rae Haase,4, Ken Ritvo, Linda Waddell. Claudia McCue, Herbert Foster, Lois Manookian, Bill Young, Dan Lewis, Chink Eastham, Sara Shorter, Wakefield School, Washington Volunteer Fire Department, and the Rappahannock Arts Association. A special thanks goes to the Rappahannock News for excellent coverage. Everyone has provided tremendous encouragement which has led to the activities of this past weekend. SPECTRA opened its ' doors to students for the first time Friday. At 4:30 the SPECTRA van pulled up with six students. Soon after, Wayne Fisher from Castleton and Clint Bowman from Flint rrived by Car. Welcoming students at the door was volunteer mary Wood, President of the Retired Teachers Association. Earlier in the day, eight volunteers had already assembled to plan their important roles for the two weekends: food preparation, cleanup, errands, computer work, etc. Volunteers, contributors and anyone interested in the SPECTRA experience are welcome to attend the graduation events next Sunday (Jan. 16) at 1 p.m. For information, call the SPECTRA office, 675-3288. PONALD CHANDLER Director WVPTTo Cover Assembly WVPT, in cooperation with the other four public television stations in Virginia, will produce and broadcast a weekly half-hour series, titled CAPITAL COMMENTARY, designed to keep viewers posted on the major events and happenings of the upcoming session of the Virginia General Assembly. CAPITAL COMMENTARY will be taped each Friday morning at the State Capital and air Friday evening at 9:00 p.m. on WVPT, beginning January 14th. George Bowles of the Virginia Radio Network and columnist for the Rappahannock News will moderate the programs. Participants will include a journalist-reporter from each of the five station’s coverage areas, as well as guest Legislators who will provide an in-depth review of the major happenings in the session during that week. Taped footage of floor action will be interspersed to highlight and add clarity to those major events. Governor Charles Robb will be the special guest on the premiere program scheduled for January 14 at 9:00 p.m. At this time the governor will respond to questions regarding the 1983 session as well as reactions to his State of the Commonwealth Address presented on January 12. Letters To The Editor Nobody Home An Open Letter to the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors and State Emergency Planner Charles Kidder: We. the inhabitants of Jordan River Farm, would like to withdraw our participation in the proposed evacuation plan for Rappahannock County. We think it would be very inconsiderate of us to offer our farm for the use of some of the proposed 9,000 guests during a nuclear war when we and the farm will not be here. It would be inconvenient, to say the least, for someone to drive all the way from D.C. only to find the farm and its inhabitants missing. Miriam S. Harris Mark and Carol Harris Beth Hudick Gory Koral Leona the cow Nuclear Free To the editor The Rappahannock Courity Board of Supervisors was recently asked by a representative of the Central Government of cooperate with its plans for what appears to be the certain result of its nuclear arms policy. It therefore seems that a responsible rejoinder by the Supervisors would be to urge the adoption by the Central Government of the mutually agreed upon nuclear freeze with the Government of the U.S.S.R., and, secondly, to declare Rappahannock a Nuclear Free County. CHRISTOPHER L BIRD Horcp«hnp Hnllnw —Rappahannock News Photo/T. Reynolds MIRACLE CURE—As those magnificent Redskins from the other Washington continue down the Super Bowl Trail, loyal fans can be expected to build up serious cases of pre-game tension. The clean-up at the first Washington’s paper recycling center on the firehall grounds offers a perfect opportunity to work off those jitters. The clean-up has been carefully scheduled for 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday so as not to conflict with action on the R.F.K. field. Everyone is invited to pitch in with reloading newspapers in the new trailer and collecting litter from the grounds. Rabies (Continued from Page 1) been affected.” Neighboring Fauquier County had 42 cases of the disease confirmed last year. But the count probably doesn’t give an accurate indication of the extent of the problem, according to Charles Shepherd of the Fauquier Health Department. He noted that the county Health Department tests only those animals known to have been in contact with humans. In contrast, Loudoun County health officials have tested all/ animals brought into Healthl Department offices, even road kills and suspected carriers that have been in contact with domestic animals or livestock. The four counties of Fauquier, Loudoun, Fairfax and Prince William accounted for 90 percent of the rabies cases confirmed in the state in 1982. Raccoons And Skunks Infected Rabies outbreaks in the 1960s and 1970s were confined primarily to foxes, Grayson said in the threepage letter which went out to local governments in eight counties. In that animal, the disease tends to burn out quickly because foxes become ill and die very soon after becoming infected. Raccoons, which account for 90 percent of the cases in the current epidemic, may have an incubation period longer than 90 days, while skunks, the other predominate carrier in the current epidemic, have an even longer incubation period, Grayson reported. Both tend to shed the virous for longer periods of time before becoming noticeably ill, he added. For these reasons and because some raccoons and skunks infected with the virus appear to survive the infection, rabies is expected to persist in the area’s wild animal population for an extended period, the health official concluded. According to Grayson, there is no effective method known for controlling the spread of the disease in wild animals. There is no evidence that trapping programs help and no vaccine approved for use in wild animals. As a barrier against human infection, health officials recommend vaccination of all pets dogs and -eitS. Dr. James B. Kenley, state health director, has proposed that all localities experiencing a serious wildlifojrabies problem adopt an ordinance requiring cats, especially household cats, to be immunized against rabies. “This recommendation could be made for your locality in the future,” Grayson noted in his December 20 letter to the Rappahannock supervisors. He added that the Virginia Code requires localities to bear the expense of treating a person bitten by a rabid animal in that locality, up to a total of $500, approximately the current perperson treatment cost. Recently, ten individuals had to undergo treatment in Loudoun County as the result of exposure to one rabid cat. The County’s cost for that episode was very nearly $5,000 Grayson reported, concluding with a suggestion that the supervisors discuss the rabies problem with Dr. Robert Einarson, local Health Department director. The rabies immunization clinic set for January 22 from 11 a.ni. to 12 noon is for dogs only. Cost is $3.50. The treasurer’s office will, be open from 11 a.m. to 12 noon as well so that dog tags may be purchased. -U.S. Of Earth O__ A recent Newsweek article (12-27-82) on the Bible has turned the belief in a divine destiny for the United States into a “myth”, raised the P.R. hype about the Puritans to the level of “reality”, and somehow overlooked the fact that America was first settled in Virginia. . .where First Amendment freedom of religion and democratic government came from. . .by Bible toting English people. The Puritans exist in history as a bad job. Thanksgiving Day should remember the banishment of Anne Hutchenson, the hanging of Mary Dyer, and the genocidal war against the Indian tribe of “Prince Phillip”. . .ungraced by anything like Virginia’s Pocahontas-Rolfe solution. Newsweek states unequivically that America is not found in the Bible, but chronological prophecies in chapters eleven and twelve of Revelations point to the dates of the sprouting of the seetj of representative government in Virginia, and the fruit of the Bible based theocracy—the killing of Quakers, and persecution of Baptists—in Massachusetts. The prophetic symbol for America (at Statue of Liberty near-look-alike) has only twelve stars |n her crown. In spite of its Madison Ave. approach to history, Massachusetts, with its “Half-Way Covenant” with God, was not good enough to be included spiritually! About the turn of the century, divine destiny and colonialism got mixed together by self-interested, expansionist politicians, and as the article shows, it is still hung-up there. But the true destiny of America is to grant statehood injUMir federal system to every nation in the world, to serve as a truly sovereign, one world, planetary democracy, controlling all of the military power of its member states. This, of course, is to happen after the growing, Yalta-like division of the planet completes the hegemony of the Antichrist described in Revelations, chapter thirteen and has met its Waterloo at Armegeddon! (1991 A.D.) Disarmament won’t be able to root out “hidden weapons”, but a United States of Earth will act as an interferon against the virus that causes war. .nationalism, and will usher in the Zionic peace that beats nuclear swords into alternate energy plowshares, and allows the lion to lie down with -x the lamb. Many prophecies show this to be so, as impossible as it may look today (1983). / PETER BROOKS HOLLEY Washington, Va. -From Both Barrels —-— Rough Assembly Session Ahead By GEORGE BOWLES One of the few things on which the members of the 1983 General Assembly seem to agree is that the session at hand will be one of the roughest and possibly one of the most politicized in recent memory. One reason, as Del. V. Earl Dickinson of Louisa put it, is that this time around the lawmakers will not be passing out many legislative benefits to the people and the localities. For the most part, they will be taking the benefits away. Del. Dickinson, a member of the House Appropriations Committee, was, of course, mainly referring to budgetary matters. But the state’s grim fiscal outlook aside, a score of other issues could turn the halls of Mr. Jefferson’s Capitol into a battleground during the weeks ahead. And the state’s fiscal outlook is indeed grim. Rising unemployment and high interest rates have combined to generate a projected $305 million shortfall in state revenues for the remaining 18 months of the 1982-84 budget period. The top item on the session’s agenda will be to find ways to keep the Commonwealth’s books in balance without a tax increase and with as little negative impact as possible on essential state services. 1 he governor s budget balancing recommendations on the Assembly’s opening night will be sure to kick up stormy debate when the time comes to attempt to translate them into legislation. While the budget will occupy the Assembly’s center stage, it will be only one of the acts which will claim the lawmakers’ attention. For aficionados of what might be called legislative *’ martial arts, the coming battle over the coal slurry pipeline will offer a dazzling display of every thrust and parry in the highpressure lobbyists’ hand\ book. At issue is the proposed construction of a pipeline from the coal fields of southwest Virginia to the Hampton Roads ports. Under present law such a pipeline cannot be built because there is no staituatory authority to condemn the land required for the right of way on which to build it. The Virginia Electric and Power Co. and other utilities strongly favor the pipeline. They contend its construction, by providing a cheaper way to transport coal, would result in vast savings to their customers. They want the law changed to allow the State Corporation Commission to grant the condemnation Authority if the SCC considers the project justified. But the railroads, which presently haul the coal, understandably disagree. They say that the pipeline could never be economically feasible, and besides, giving authority to the SCC to make the decision on its construction is a clever dodge designedeto make the proposal monTpattilable to members of the General Assembly by getting the issue off their backs. Both sides have lined up teams of highly paid lobbyists to push their causes, and a mammoth battle between 4he railroad and utility titans is about to be joined. Almost as emotionally charged - or maybe even more so - is the question of lifting the moratorium on uranium mining in the slate. The legislature will probably duck the main issue on this one and instead enact a set of guidelines which, if met, flight result in the ban being lifted at some time in the future. The mining interests seem to be satisfied with this approach for the present, but the bill will come under fire from environmentalists and other mining opponents who believe it amounts to the uranium mining camel getting its nose under the state’s tent. Another source of major controversy will be the anticrime package of bills which will be introduced at the request of Gov. Charles S. Robb and Attorney General Gerald L. Baliles. The proposed measures are designed to add to the stale's legal arsenal in its war against drug abuse. Many of these proposals have undeniable merit. Already, however, some of the others have come under heavy atlac|pk'm an unlikely alliance * ill rights groups ajrai^^ servative members in the General Assembly who, in private life, make their living as defense attorneys. t)ne of the objectionable provisions would admit wiretap evidence in a trial when the evidence was collected during the investigation of an unrelated crime. Another would allow the introduction in a trial of evidence illegally obtained by police if it could be shown the officer was acting in good faith, and thought he was acting legally when he obtained the evidence. * The civil rights groups say the provisions could lead to “fishing expeditions” by police and jeopardize the rights of innocent persons. Defense lawyers don’t like the proposed changes because they would obviously make their jobs more difficult. Other measures which will make the legislative sparks tty include a bill outlawing throwaway bottles and cans and requiring a dime deposit on all beer and soft drink containers. Another would raise the drinking age for wine and beer It' 20 or 21 years. Still another would expand the death penally to include murder committed in the course, of attempted violent crimes. All told, some 1700 bills and resolutions are expected to be introduced in the 46 day session. As these measures work their wav through the Assembly’s mill. Virginians w ho care to watch will be treated to an awesome display of legislative derring-do. After all, the whole General Assembly will be up for election again just 10 months from now. Names Missed The Leap To the editor: Not one but three names failed to make the treacherous leap from rough draft to finished letter last week when Sam and I tried to express gratitude to all who contributed to the logistics of the New Year’s Eve party sponsored by R.A.A.C. First, again in alphabetical order, was Camille Harris, who (with Pat’s help) supplied a table; second, Margaret Gottlieb, who headed the dinner committee superlatively well; and Sidney Gottlieb, third, to keep The alphabetical succession irreproachably pure, who did -i what was needed, when it was % needed, and did it with unflagging good humor. This, I trust, fills all gaps. They were certainly regrettable, and regret them I do. WALDRON O’CONNOR

There's a lot to be said for deregulation. Probably the one best reason behind the government's decision to deregulate the telephone industry is competition. Competition that lets us choose who will sell us what we need and for what price. By removing some of the regulations an& restrictions which now control telephone companies, the Federal Communications Commission hopes to give telephone customers more choices, especially when it comes to acquiring telephone equipment. . In fact, encouraging our customers to buy telephone equipment is one of the ways we've changed at Centel, as the nature of the business itself has changed with the move toward deregulation-oveRthe past three years. And we're go(ng to do our best to help you understand any changes that are still to come. Your phone will be your own. For years the only way you could get a telephone was to lease one from the telephone company. But under the new FCC guidelines, after January 1, 1983, we are no longer required to lease telephones and other equipment to new one-party customers. So, now when you need a new phone, you will have to buy it like you would any small appliance. One-party customers who now lease phones from us will still be able to lease their phones until they move. Although party-line customers are initially unaffected by the new FCC guidelines, we expect they, too, will become subject to the new rules in the near future. V few?) We've already changed for the better. You may have already .taken advantage of some of the service changes we began when we saw deregulation coming some time ago. For instance, when you need your phones repaired you can bring them to one of our Pick-a-Phone Centers or other designated repair centers. We can fix most phones while you wait. Now it pays to do it yourself. You can even install phones yourself with our easy Installa-Phone instructions and a few simple tools. Phones, jacks and wire are available at our Pick-a-Phone Centers. These services save you time and money because you do most of the work. And you do it when it's most convenient for you. I PICK-A- PHONK CENTER One thing won't change. Under deregulation, we'll still be your phone company We'll continue to offer you local and long distance service and you'll still be able to get phones, installation and repairs from C^ntel. And there's one more thing you can count on from us. We're going to work even harder to continue providing you with quality service you can count on. GEAT/EL 1/

J • ■ u 1 > Rappahannock Mews Staff Writer For success using your wood stove surface for cooking, you must be resigned to inexact instructions. After some experimenting on your own, you will feel more secure with approximate temperatures and cooking times. Eventually, you will be able to judge when your fire is hot enough to fry, roast or boil, just as your grandmother did, and you will accumulate makeshift trivets and rings to elevate pots and pans needing less heat. The only single important concept you must grasp is the need for planning ahead. Cooking on an air-tight stove is the philosophical opposite of investing in a new microwave oven—you will be going backwards rather than forward in terms of consumption and speed. You must always know what comes next, when you may comfortably create a very hot surface. You will be working on tonight's dinner this morning, or perhaps even tomorrow night’s meal as in Two-and-a-Half Day Chili. Two and a Half Day Chili 1 lb. dried red beans One-third lb. diced bacon 4 onions, chopped 2 chopped carrots 2 cloves garlic 4 quarts tomatoes fresh celery leaves, basil and parsley 'A cup red wine salt, pepper 1 chili pepper, chopped You’ll need two heavy iron pots for this. The first night, wash and sort beans, cover with water and let soak overnight. In the morning, throw a couple of logs on the fire. In one pot, brown the bacon and add onions and garlic. Add tomatoes and carrots. In the other pot, place soaked beans and ' enough water to cover. Lower heat when you leave, and add more water to the beans or more tomatoes to the sauce if too much evaporates.

As Campaign Chairman, Mrs. Fannon will coordinate volunteers who will seek contributions and distribute information on how the American Heart Association spent its money in support of research, education and community service programs. She reports that this year’s local campaign goal is $5,000. The American Heart Association is a major health organization of more than two million volunteers dedicated solely to the reduction of early death and disability from heart disease, stroke and related disorders. Despite a continuing reduction in the death rate from heart disease and stroke, more than 40 million Americans are afflicted with these diseases, “and nearly one million Americans die each year as a result of these diseases—more than all other causes of death combined,” Mrs. Fannon said. “We’re fighting to reduce the early death and disability from these diseases, so when your Heart volunteer calls, remeiTiber to give generously," the Campaign Chairman urged area residents. She also announced the following key district captains who will serve in the Campaign: Frances Lyne (Piedmont), Jean Lillard (Wakefield), Janet Yancey (Jackson), Deanna Leggett (Stonewall-Hawthorne east of Rt. 522), Linda Butler (Stonewall- Hawthorne west of Rt. 522) and Lucille Price (Hampton). Kick-off date for the 1983 Heart Association’s fund raising campaign is February 1, 1983.

Before serving, smash some of the beans, top with grated cheese and chopped onion. Cooking with wood saves electric energy, but it may tax the energy of the woodcutter.

ROGER BATCHELDER, earthman , Gay St., Washington, Va. 22747 Light: 675-3777 Dark: 937-4388 The Year OfTh e Panthers RCHS Climbs To First In Bull Run District By joe McCullough Rappahannock V». Sport. K Hlcr The RCHS Varsity Cagers captured first place in the Bull Run District by first dethroning the Strasburg Rams, 70-66, last Friday and then shooting down the Stonewall Jackson Generals on Tuesday, 70-55. The Panthers are now 4-1 in district play and 8-3 overall. Rappahannock commanded an early 4-2 lead in the opening minutes of play against Strasburg, but tight officiating coupled with accurate foul shooting by the Rams kept them in the game,, and after the Panthers missed some easy shots SCHS took a 19-17 first quarter lead. The Panthers’ shots continued to fall short of the mark in the second quarter and Ram Bryan Moser converted on six straight tosses from the charity stripe to give his team a 28-19 advantage. Strasburg’s luck seemed to improve when Rapp’s two big men, Mike Leake and Tom Sisk, were assessed with three fouls apiece. But if the Rams were expecting things to get any easier, then they sure must have been suprised when the Doyle Dunn brigade went into action. In a minute and a half of play Dunn tallied five points, two steals, and three rebounds, tying the game at 34 all. Strasburg recovered from shell shock in lime to hit one bucket and lake a 36-34 margin into the locker room. In the third quarter of action, Panther Robert Myers connected on a three point play to give Rapp its first lead since early in the first quarter, 46-45. A strong panther defense helped retain the edge and go into the final quarter ahead, 49-47. Led by their 5’9” sparkplug guard Robert Myers and a hot-handed Clarence Pendleton the Panthers outscored the Rams, 12-2, early in the fourth quarter. Rappahannock continued to send the Rams to shoot free throw line, however, and SCHS cut it to one, 64-65, halfway through the final period. Myers warded off the Ram attack when, with a minute left to play, he sunk two free throws and increased the Panther’s advantage to 67-64. The Rams came back with 30 ticks left on the clock, pulling to within one. 67-66. Then Doyle Dunn was tapped for a charge and a technical foul two seconds later and Rappahannock fans held their breath as a Ram stepped up to the foul line. He missed. Another Strasburg opportunity came with 8 seconds left. A Ram stepped up to the foul line once again to shoot a one-and-one. Again he missed and Jeff Porter grabbed the rebound, was fouled and hit his first toss. Tom Sisk delivered the “coup de grace” when he grabbed the rebound and layed it in for a 70-66 Rappahannock victory. Coach Dawson was very pleased with the play coming off of the bench, especially from Doyle Dunn. Dawson said Dunn had his best game of the year with 14 points and excellent defense, defense that has been important to the Panthers in their last two games. Dawson was disappointed with his team’s 23 turnovers. “Defense won the game,” he concluded. Mike Leake and Robert Myers paced the Panthers with 15 points apiece. Leake also had 16 rebounds and Myers had five assists and three steals. Panthers Trounce Generals Rappahannock secured a firmer hold on first place Tuesday night with a surprisingly easy victory over the Stonewall Jackson Generals, 70-55. The loss toppled the Generals front a share of the ^ first place spot in the District.

Rapp once again set the speed of the game, Mike Leake’s offensive rebounding and off-balance shots by Robert Myers put RCHS out in front 22-18 early in the second period. Pops Aylor made one of the most outlandish shots of the year, taking the ball the entire length of the court and putting it in with an underhanded triple pump layup to increase the Panther lead, 26-22. Jeff Porter proved he was no slouch either when it came to Dr. J. shots. Two minutes later, he stole an inbounds pass and found himself behind the basket. Porter lofted the ball up into the air as he was falling backwards and all the ball hit was net. The ,heroics gave Rapp a 34-28 lead at half-time. Mike Leake controlled the boards at both ends of the court, finishing the game with 25 caroms. That was five more than the whole General team combined. Lake’s efforts limited the attack and along with a stuff by team mate Clarence Pendleton, put lire under the Panthers who built a 54-38 third quarter lead. Continuing to control the game, the Panthers coasted to a 70-55 victory. Rappahannock had 45 rebounds, putting together one of their finer offensive rebounding games but it was their worst defensively.
