Academics! This was an academic competition and it showed that Rappahannock can compete athletically and academically,” said an excited and happy Cindy Wayland, co-sponsor and coach for the RCHS team that defeated St. AnneBellfield in the school’s first Pop Quiz competition in Harrisonburg. “I was so proud of them. They showed a sense of unity and pride,” Mrs. Wayland said of the four youngsters who represented Rappahannock. It was “lights, camera, action” in the studios of public television’s station WPTV last Thursday and the action belonged to Rappahannock from the start. Who is the Ohio Senator that polls show could beat President Reagan if an election were to be held today? Eighth grader Jonathan Watson had his finger on the buzzer before the question was even finished. “John Glenn,” he answered with authority. The correct answer gave Rappahannock’s squad ten points and the right to try the bonus questions. Jonathan’s swift and sure response also erased most of the pre-game'jitters that had plagued his older team mates, sophomore James Dennis and juniors Ann Oliver and Cheryl Atkins. Cool, calm and collected RCHS captain Oliver knocked off five questions in a row and Rappahannock led 100 to 85 at the break. But in the half-time battle of the slide show, St. AnneBellfield was clearly the victor. It was fortunate that the intimidating presentation came AFTER the kids from Rappahannock had already demonstrated their intellectual prowess. The captain of the school’s allmale, all-senior squad noted that St. Anne-Bellfield, “within walking distance of Mr. Jefferson’s academic village,’’ demonstrates that same commitment to academic excellence that pervades the University of Virginia’s campus. As the scree filled with photographs of the private school’s ten new Apple computers, the captain reported that St. AnneBellfield has a nine-to-one teacher-student ratio and that 98 percent of its graduates go on to college. But even those impressive statistics couldn’t shake the confidence of the Rappahannock four. They never looked back in the second half and tallied ISO additional points to win, 250135. “I didn’t notice the TV when we were playing but it was wierd to see myself later on the video tape. 1 wasn’t sure it was me,” said Cheryl Atkins. “I don’t mean to sound conceited but it just never occurred to me that we might even come close to losing. But still the margin of our victory was surprising.” Jonathan thought it was weird hearing himself on the tube. ‘‘I was unsure of what the outcome might be,” said the eighth grader who plans to pursue a career in medical research at Johns Hopkins. “I’m happy and proud to be the youngest member of our group. I’m also glad we had Ann Oliver who was the base of the team.” Ann was truly the woman of the hour. “I was sooo nervous because everyone else looked so calm,” the captain admitted. But if Ann was nervous, she never showed it as she expertly tossed .off answer after answer, pausing after each question to consult with her teammates. Ann said she thought it was an advantage being in the front row of the contestants’ (Continued on Page 3) School Board To Re-Bid Bus Shop By l HbntsA KEYINOLDS Rappahannock ISrwa Staff Writer At a special meeting called to examine the bidding process on school board office and bus shop construction, board members voted unanimously to issue another invitation to bid. v At its last meeting the board had voted to accept the low bidder, Baughan Construction Company of Luray, with a bid of $138,000. Later. School Superintendent Robert Estabrook discovered that the invitation to bid had not been published in this or any other general circulation newspaper. The advertisement had been requested by the architect but overlooked by Estabrook, who acknowledged full responsibility for the error. Board members Randall Updike and Nancy Reeve, concerned that Rappahannock contractors may not have been aware of the project, called the special meeting with the full board and its lawyer, Philip Stone, to determine if the error made the bidding process invalid. Wakefield member Robert Eastham was also concerned that the bids had been opened before the meeting in the architect’s office. Chairman Beverly Massie asked that Lowell Baughan of Baughan and Baukages. the architects for the building, review the steps of the bidding process. Baughan told the board that he had listed the project in the Dodge Reports, a service informing contractors of bidding opportunities, and the Builders’ Exchange, and notified by letter those who had asked him for information about the project. He also sent the school administration a copy of the bidding invitation with a request that it be put in the local paper. Included in the invitation, 1 Baughan said, was the location and time of the 1 opening so that contractors I could attend. Bids were opened in the architect’s t office with all but one of the * bidders and the superintendent present. Baughan \« explained that the sealed bids were opened before presentation to the school board so that the architect could determine if the bids were comparable in the scope of work included. No Recrimination “I did not come here to engage in recrimination," Eastham said. "But it is the opinion of this member that the competitive bidding process has been compromised. The board never authorized a deviation from our standard procedure of opening bids at a full public session of the board." “This is not a deviation," Massie responded. “This is flow we handled the bids for he well. It's a standard irchitectural practice. The Jids are recorded and rvaluated by the architect." “So, we’ve done this twice, si ad a m e Chairman?” Zastham asked. “The method of opening he bids is perfectly legal,” aid attorney Phillip Stone. It's not at all unusual to pen bids in an architect’s v office. The competing contractors were physically present. Who has more standing to insure fair competition than the contractors? "The other matter is more troubling," Stone said. He said that the legal requirements for inviting the public to bid are very specific and that a new public procurement act had taken effect January I. The new act states that an invitation to all bidders must be publicly posted at a place like the courthouse; or it must appear in a newspaper of general circulation. "Since neither of these conditions were met, the job must be re-bid," Stone said. "Since it appears that we’re moving t* ward rebidding, Mr, Stone,” Eastham said, "if this matter ever came to court, would you be better able to defend us if we each rescinded our vote on accepting the lowest bidder, as is our right if all members agree?” Stone replied that this (Continued on Page 2) Guest Seeks $81,000 For Rappahannock Jail By SEAN ADAMS Arundrl Mr«i»p«|HT» ( :»m-»|i»ndrnl • RICHMOND—Rappahannock County representatives asked a General Assembly subcommittee last Friday for state money to help pay for renovations to the county jail but received no assurance that the money will be available. “Well, about all we can say is the committee listened and they seemed to be sympathetic to our case,” said Sheriff W. A. Buntin. “But they didn’t make any commitment.” “The subcommittee is definitely sympathetic,” said Del. Raymond R. “Andy” Guest Jr. (R-Warren). “We’ll just have to wait to see if they can squeeze out the money.” Guest and Buntin met early Friday with the Public Safety Subcommittee of the House Appropriations Committee, which is working on amendments to the 198284 state budget to account for what is estimated to be a $305 million shortfall in state revenue over the two-year period. State money for improvements to the Rappahannock jail was included in the budget but was eliminated by Gov. Charles S. Robb’s Secretary of Public Safety as part of the governor’s budget-trimming efforts. Guest said after Friday’s meeting that he would know, perhaps by Feb. 7, whether the money will be included in the budget. The appropriations panel is expected to present the amended budget to the House by that date. “I think we have a shot,” said Guest of the prospects of getting state funding. “I don’t want to put odds on it.” According to Guest, the latest cost estimate for the jail renovation is S162.000. That figure has varied from SI 50,000 last March to as low as $65,000 in July. Guest asked the committee to reimburse the county for 50 percent of the cost, or about $81,000. Rappahannock County would pay the rest, he said. Guest said that if the House panel fails to include the money in its recommended budget, he will try to get the funding as part of the budget of the Senate Finance Committee, which will be recommending, its own budget to the full Senate. Buntin said the renovations are needed to bring the jail in compliance with State Department of Corrections Standards. The county has been forced to ship prisoners to other counties because of the space shortage in Rappahannock, he added. The situation got even worse last July when Fauquier County, because of overcrowding in its own jail, slopped taking prisoners from Rappahannock. Buntin said Rappahannock now ships prisoners “wherever we can find a vacant bed." The sheriff added that the county would "be glad to get anything we can" in terms of state funding. But, he noted, if the county does not get state help the board of supervisors may be hesitant lo fund the project on its own. Bright Charged With Assault A Sperryville man has been charged with assault and battery in connection with an incident that occurred at the Sperryville Corner Store on January 8. According to a complaint filed by Joe M. Whitfield, Gary Lee Bright followed Whitfield’s wife into the store. When Whitfield went in to get his wife, Bright allegedly pushed him out the door and knocked him down twice on the street, causing injuries to Whitfield’s legs, back and hands. While investigating the disturbance, State Trooper R A. Baines observed Bright holding a beer can. According to the trooper’s report, Bright was slurring his speech, unsteady on his feet and had the odor of alcohol on his breath. As a result, the trooper charged him with being drunk in public. Bright has been released on S200 cash bond with the condition that he have no contact with Mr. or Mrs. Whitfield or go near their property. A hearing for arraignment and appointment of counsel has been set for February 1 in general district court. Trial is scheduled for February 15. At that same time. Bright will face a second charge of being drunk in public as well as charges that he operated a motor vehicle on a public highway after his license had been revoked. According to arrest reports. State Trooper R A. Newlin found Bright laying on the back porch of White House Antiques in Sperryville at 2 p.m. on January 1. The traffic charge was lodged by Rappahannock deputy Todd Brown who observed Bright driving a brown van on Route 211 west of Sperryville on the afternoon of January 25. Cased Gun Bill Killed Local governments that want to enact so-called “cased gun ordinances" will , not get the authority from the 1983 General Assembly. The Senate, by a 26-11 margin, killed a bill Monday that would have given localities the option of prohibiting persons from carrying uncased firearms. The House Courts of Justice Committee killed a similar bill sponsored by Delegates George Beard and Raymond R. “Andy” Guest last week. In introducing the Senate bill. Senator Nathan H. Miller (R-Rockingham) cited problems with illegal hunting in Rappahannock and other counties. Miller noted that some localities want to make hunters put their guns in cases when traveling from one spot to another. The Virginia Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries took no position on Miller’s bill. “We had no objections to the bill,” said Richard Cross, the commission’s executive director. He added that the commission preferred a statewide cased gun law over local option legislation but acknowledged that a statewide law would encounter heavy opposition. Apparently helping to defeat the bill was the National Rifle Association. The NRA opposed it as “further harassment to hunters in a "patchwork approach” to the problem, according to NRA lobbyist David Marshall. Although Marshall did not speak in opposition to the Senate and House versions before the committees, he said he had “a lot of phone communication” with legislators on the matter. Marshall and Cross both said a local option cased gun law would be difficult to enforce because hunters traveling from one county to another would not know where the measure was in force. The house version of the cased gun bill was killed in the Courts of Justice Committee without a single supporting vote. “It sounds like it’s pretty well dead,” Del. Guest concluded.

RAACSponsors Workshop At the invitation of the Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community, Bart Whiteman of Source Theatre will conduct an actors workshop in the Gay Street Theatre in Washington Sunday, February 13 from 12 to 4:30. P.M. Bart Whiteman is a graduate of Yale University where he played varsity football and lacrose. After graduation he played folk / guitar in Washington D.C. cafes. On a whim he tried out for and won a part in the Georgetown Workshop Theatre production of Art Buchwald’s SHEEP ON THE RUNWAY. He enrolled at American University to study music in the fall of 1974. He played in several university productions including both a male and female role in Moliere’s THE DOCTOR IN SPITE OF HIMSELF and was hooked. Whiteman went on to study acting at Circle-in-theSquare in New York City. Acting stints at Arena Stage and the Washington Theatre Laboratory led to a sojourn at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London. In 1977 Bart Whiteman founded the Source Theatre Company which he serves as actor, director, designer, writer and producer. He has directed many plays in(Continued on Page 2) Man Dies In Fire An elderly Washington man died in a house fire Friday. Henry Starks, %, was found dead on his living room floor by police and rescue volunteers who responded to the structural fire at approximately 10 a.m., according to Trooper R. A. Baines. A passer-by saw smoke coming from the eaves of Starks’ residence, Baines said. The man couldn't get in through the locked front door and ran around to the kitchen entrance which was open. He turned in the fire alarm and while waiting for the fire trucks, poured water on several over-stuffed chairs that were smoldering in the smoke tilled living room, ihc trooper reported. It wasn’t until the smoke cleared that Starks was found, Baines said. Apparently, he had tried to start a fire in the living room wood stove with kerosene. “The next-door-neighbor said he usually started the tire for Mr. Starks and that he used a litYle kerosene to get it started," Baines said. The trooper said that it appeared Starks caught his clothes on fire and was trying to reach the kitchen when he was overcome. His body has been taken to Fairfax Hospital on orders of Dr. Jerry Martin, medical examiner, to determine the exact cause of death. Judge Names Prosecutor Circuit Court Judge Thomas Horne last week named a Fairfax attorney as special prosecutor in the Kidwell case. Steven Merrill will replace Rappahannock Commonwealth's Attorney Douglas Baumgardner who disqualified himself on the grounds of potential conflict. In stepping down on advice from the Virginia Bar’s counsel, Baumgardner explained that the issue of potential conflict arose from the possibility that he may be called as a material witness in the trial. Diane E. Kidwell is charged with second-degree murder in the shooting of Flint Hill farm manager Ranee Spellman last November 9. Preliminary motions in the case are set for February 25 in Rappahannock’s circuit court. The new prosecutor maintains a private law practice in Fairfax County. Merrill was formerly chief assistant to Robert Horan, Fairfax commonwealth's attorney, for 13 years.

Red Hawk Harness Shop Is Second Career By THERESA REYNOLDS Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer A fall from a frightened race horse at 35 miles an hour put an end to Donna Sylvester’s career as a trainer and left her wondering what to do next. “I was working a race horse at Laurel,” Donna remembers, “when a lead pony came out at the wrong time. I’ve been paying for that lead pony rider’s mistake every since.” Donna’s remarks are not made in bitterness, but come after years of gradual realization that her badlyinjured back would not allow her to continue in the field she loved. At first it seemed that she could continue in her successful horse-training business with constant therapy and a little caution. “But then, one morning, I woke up and couldn’t move,” she recalls. “I guess I knew then that I would never ride again, at least not professionally.” Her familiar routine of training and grooming horses at the Middleburg training track and other tracks on the east coast gave way to a new schedule of doctor’s visits, therapeutic treatments and home exercises aimed at restoring and protecting severely-damaged nerves and muscles. An added burden was negotiating with the insurance company and the recurrent question of how to support herself. “I’ve always been an athlete, always worked outside,’’ Donna said. "Everything I knew how to do depended on me being strong and healthy.” For ten years, Donna had worked hard at turning her love of horses into a profession she could be proud of. She exercised horses and ponies, worked with race horses as a trainer, and had gradually built a full-service training business where she had the facilities to board and train horses. “Basically, I did it all,” she said. “I sometimes had help in mucking out the stables but I had to be extremely active seven days a week to make my business succeed.” The Laurel accident in 1975 changed all that. “I had aches and pains from previous falls,” she said. “When it was damp or rainy I knew I had taken a lot of tumbles, but there was nothing like this." In the two years following her accident, as she tried to hold things together in spite of the pain, her business grew even more successful. Then came the morning she woke up paralyzed and the doctors’ warning that she must seek a more sedentary career. “Even if I had ignored the doctors, 1 just couldn’t do it,” Donna said. “I was too weak to control a thousand-pound horse; I was just too weak.” Donna’s constant therapy enables her to get around normally. “That was another problem,” she said. “Who would hire someone who has to spend so much time in therapy? I realized I’d have to have my own business.” More problems: “Who is going to make a business RappaJjannnck Neuib Rappahannock & Adjoining Counties per year $8.00 Elsewhere in the U.S. per year $10.00 Outside the U.S. per year $8.00 plus postage SUBSCRIPTION RATES BY MAIL ALL PAYABLE IN ADVANCE ( ) New ( ) Renewal ( ) Check Enclosed NAME _l_ ADDRESS _ CITY__:_ STATE _____ ZIP __ Entered as second class mail at the Post Office in Warrenton, Va.

No-one, I found out.” Help from Vocational Rehabilitation Donna did find a resource in her long struggle to be able to support herself. Vocational Rehabilitation services in Culpeper assisted her in negotiating with a reluctant insurance company. “The deal was that I should be re-trained in a career my health would permit,” Donna said. “Mr. Tuck Baker has spent hours trying to arrange a fair settlement.” At first, Donna’s rehabilitation took the form of school. She took a year’s course at Lord Fairfax aimed at making her a soil conservation technician. Government cutbacks terminated this option. With the help of Mr. Baker, Donna set out to learn harnessmaking, a skill that would keep her close to the life and the people and horses she loved. “I knew quite a lot about tack,” she said. I set up an apprenticeship program that . would enable me to make and repair leather tack, and garments and make leather products to order.” Her first lessons were at a friend’s tack shop in New Baltimore - E. H. Custom Leather work. Loans from her family enabled her to buy some of the expensive machinery and tools needed to produce really fine leather work. “I’m starting on a shoe-string, gathering bits and pieces. I’m trying to be patient. I know in time I’ll get it all.” Donna has set up shop at the packing house in Flint Hill, in back of Aunt Jane’s sewing and alterations. “First we had to build walls and get everything ready,” she said. She’s now open for business and will make goods to order from leather, or will repair any kind of leather tack. “I picked this location because of friends in Rappahannock,” Donna said. “Also there’s no leather worker nearby.” Eventually. Old Soldiers Remembered On February 24, the Rappahannock Newi will run the second installment of its monthly series celebrating the 150th (sesquicentennial) birthday of Rappahannock County.

School Board (Continued from Page 1) procedure was not necessary or helpful. Bidden Related To Architect The attorney went on to say that a proper way of handling the fact that Lowell Baughan, the architect, was related to two of the principal members of the construction company that turned in the previous low bid was to publicly acknowledge the fact, and to determine if this relationship had been a problem in any prior construction jobs where the same relationship existed. “This man has an excellent reputation,” Stone said. “In rural areas there are always familial, social, personal ties between people. Your duty to your constituents will be fulfilled by this acknowledgement and this research.” Eastham also had a question about the acceptance by the architect of a certified check for 5 percent of the project’s value in lieu of a performance and pay bond with the bid. The architect and the attorney both explained that the job could not proceed to contract stage without the bond. “The check just enables a contractor to put in a bid in the event that his bid bond doesn’t arrive when he expected it,” the architect said. Re-advertise The board agreed to accept their attorney’s advice and framed three motions: that the architect re-advertise the bid, using his previous means and adding the Rappahannock Newt, the Culpeper News and the Northern Virginia Daily and acknowledge disclosure of the architect’s familial relationship with one of the bidders; that the chairman and superintendent be directed to inquire about previous jobs performed by Baughan and Baukages, architects, and Baughan Construction Company; and , that sealed bids be opened before the board. The motions passed unanimously. The architect said that there might be some problems with the contractors. The low bidder, he said, had never re-bid a job; and with the exact amount of the low bid now public knowledge, it was doubtful if any of the lower bidders would re-bid. The higher bidders would not find it worthwhile to bid again. “So unless you have bidders from your community,” he said, “you may not have any bids.” The board agreed to schedule the bid opening for March 8 and went into executive session for two hours to consult with Stone. Nelson Lane, on vacation, was absent from the special meeting.

Donna shares her farm there with a herd of dairy goats, several old horses and a few dogs and cats. HarneM Maker Although Donna enjoys producing and repairing quality leather goods, her plan is to become one of the few people in the country who make leather harness for draft horses. To learn the added skills she needs, she will work with a harnessmaker in Wyoming. “Everyone I’ve talked with has been so willing to help,” she said. She also corresponds with a Mennonite harness-maker in Harrisonburg. As far as Donna knows, these two and another in Pennsylvania are the only full harness-makers in the country. “There’s been a revived interest in draft horses all over,” Donna said. “Also there’s an interest right now in carriage horses. All these people need work harness and I think they’d be interested in a Virginia source.” Until she can manage a trip to Wyoming, Donna is busy at her shop. From her Wyoming friend she’s gotten a harness stitcher, a beautiful machine last made in the 'twenties. With it she can stitch leather hides over an inch thick. It uses linen thread and is worked by a treadle. "It can be electrified, ” she said as she demonstrated, “but I prefer the old way of doing things.” “The old way” to Donna means not only the old machines, but the painstaking craftsmanship, the hand-stitching, the attention to detail that was appreciated in old-time leather craft. With the help of Vi Vierling, her neighboring seamstress, she hopes also to be able to construct leather jackets and other garments. She has two orders already, one to be made from a deerskin and one from a fox hide. The enthusiasm and energy that once made her a respected horse trainer are PEDAL POWER now directed into her fledgling craft business. “I don’t know what will happen,” Donna said. ”1 realize I can’t be a fully productive person anymore. But I am determined to be as productive as I can be.” Red Hawk Harness and Leather Work Hint Hill 675-3438 Home: 364-2064 ^ Open Monday, Wednesday, Friday-10:00 ajn.-5 pjn.

A Daniel Allan Pop Quiz (Continued from Page 1) seating. “That way, we didn’t have to look at our competition,” she explained. As to the extra pressure on the leader of the RCHS contingent, she acknowledged that “it’s awful when no one else knows the answer because you have to say something but I like to have the last word!” She missed a “last word” guess on the Florida’s state song. It wasn’t “Sunshine,” the answer she proferred with a giggle. But when the team was stumped on the parts of a flower, she pulled “anthers” out of her back pocket, surprise written all over her face when the moderator added the points for a correct response. After last week’s win, Rappahannock advances to the next round of Pop Quiz competition. And this time, the television station is sending out a crew to film its own presentation on the upstart school from the boondocks.

Appropriate Alternatives (703) 937-4243 (703) 631-0977 Da niel Brings ‘ ‘Meree Chrrissmas99 To Fa milv By ROB BAYNE Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Daniel is from India and he is seven years old. He has scintillating, black almond eyes, smooth black hair, and his face, more often than not. bears a mischievous gaptoothed grin. He greets strangers and friends alike with a vehement “Meree Chtrissmas!,” a phrase he learned during the holiday season and is loath to give up. Occasionally, visitors are treated to a performance of song, dance and mime as Daniel flits about the room, from person to person, shaking hands, making funny faces, and singing Jingle Bells. Along with being gregarious, Daniel is a prolific painter in the cubist tradition of Picasso. His works cover the kitchen walls and refrigerator of his new home in Rappahannock. Daniel’s new family. Freeman and Pali Allan and twelve-month-old Gabriel, greeted him for the first time at National Airport after his New York Shuttle flight early in December. Bleary-eyed from thirty hours of air travel, his only respite being the stop in New York to pass through Immigration, Daniel came through the gate with his guardian on the journey, Miss Pamela Gunter, a service volunteer-stewardess who devotes a portion of her free time escorting orphans like Daniel on long flights to their new homes in the United States. Weeks before the flight, she had met with Daniel, told him about planes and about America and become his friend—his “Auntie” as he affectionately called her. Miss Gunter was his final liaison between the Missionaries of Charity Orphanage, his home since infancy, and his new home and new parents in Flint Hill, Virginia. Allan, a teacher at Wakefield School in Huntly, recalls the airpftrt rendevous: “We came upstairs in the airport, idealistic young parents waiting for our son to arrive, and here he came through the gate and, of course, we were delighted to see him. He was a little shy and obviously sleepy and he came up and Pamela said ‘I’m going to leave now; you talk to him’ and turned to leave and, suddenly, from a tired, shy little boy, erupted a tantrum. He pitched a major fit, screaming in Hindi and pleading in the only English words he knew, ‘No leave Phones Out Monday Night Phones in Washington and Flint Hill were out of operation for one and a half hours on Monday night. Bill Flippo, service manager at , Centel’s Front Royal office, said that the problem was caused by a broken ringing generator. At 8:00 p.m. his office first received reports that phones on the 675 exchange would not ring. The duty supervisor found that the trouble was in the ringing mechanism in Washington. A new generator was brought from Front Royal, correcting the difficulty at 9:30. Auntie, No leave Auntie.' It was just heartbreaking. People gathered round. It was like we were kidnapping this child.” With Pali Allan carrying Gabriel, Freeman Allan hoisted Daniel, kicking and sobbing, into his arms and lumbered hastily to the nearest exit. On the drive home Allen held Daniel in his arms and simultaneously offered him some chocolate from the airport shop. Daniel vehemently continued to refuse, every time pushing it away from his face. Halfway home, Mrs. Allan pulled the car into a fast food restaurant. Chocolate “Key” Allan recalls, “While Pali was in the fast food place, I tried to put the chocolate in his mouth again. He pushed my hand away. I tried it a second time and he took it. From then on he was putty in our hands. He just had to make that one jump of accepting front us ■ and recognizing that we were the people that had been writing to him for months.” Besides the frequent letters, many months of preparation and paper work transpired previous to Daniel’s adoption, the norm for foreign adoption proceedings. Both Freeman and Pali Allen had done social work abroad. Freeman with Mother Teresa and the Sisters of Charity in Calcutta and Pali with the Peace Corps in Indonesia. When they decided to adopt a child, Allan’s experience in India was particularly influential in their decision to adopt an orphan from Mother Theresa’s Missionaries of Charity orphanage. (Both attribute Daniel’s vivacious, loving nature to the treatment and example he received from the Sisters.) Having made their decision, the Allans contacted Cathy Schreedar, an adoption agent who has been placing children from Mother Theresa’s orphanage for nine years. “Cathy has placed over nine hundred children; only one of these placements has - not worked out,” observed Pali. “She knows what kind of people she’s looking for—what kind of people are right for adopting and what kids belong with what parents.” rrr FAUQUIER LIVESTOCK EXCHANGE 'NCO«t>WAT»P REGULAR SALES E»wy Tum.

In this case, the buyer has real bullets while the seller's gun drops a flag that says “POP’. The buyer has all the advantages. He has hundreds of houses to choose from - the seller has only one to sell. The buyer has talked to and bargained with many homeowners. He may have the guidance, help and protection from his attorney, his bank, friends, employer. Buyer’s pocket computer subtracts Realtor’s commission from asking price and starts bargaining from there. His cold, unemotional approach can be chilling. He is buying a “house”. Mr. Owner is selling a “home”. The buyer is the true professional between the two. In the courtroom, a good attorney is the equalizer. In the operating room, success depends upon the surgeon.

We're here to help. Home Study Cathy directed Pali and Freeman to contact their local welfare office in Rappahannock. There, welfare officer Sylvia Kreitler conducted a home study, the purpose of which is to evaluate both the home and the intentions of prospective adoptive parents. "A social worker ascertains what the reasons are for your wanting to adopt a child,” explained Pali. “Possibly the worst reason is the idea of doing good—of saving a child... thousands and thousands of people (during the Christmas season) suddenly get hit by the altruistic spirit of saving some poor orphan off the streets without the foggiest idea of the true magnitude of adopting a child. . .It’s not like picking up some stray dog, making sure it has food and shelter. That’s YOUR CHILD—part of your family.” After the Allans survived the preliminary screening, they were faced with the task of choosing front among hundreds of pictures, the child who would be their own. Again, Pali explained, “We were set on getting a little girl because we had a little boy, Gabriel, who at that time was about eight months old. We looked through the pages of pictures of the children up for adoption and sure enough Building? )V, •Paint •Lumber c •Mlllwork •Hardware kA Complete One-Stsp BUILDING SUPPLY Warrenton Building Haterlal Co., Inc. •a the By-Pass Warrsatn 347-1400 there were a number of cuteJ little two or three year old girls that were available. But it was the funniest thing: we came across a picture of this boy with an impish grin and so much light pouring out of his eyes. I saw that picture and Freeman saw that picture and both of us were struck by it. It was almost a gut recognition: that's our son—What's he doing in India?" While the Allan's were readying their home and their lives for Daniel, the first graders of Wakefield School were also busy dressing the classroom with "Welcome Home Daniel" posters. Pali Allan, whom the kids came to know as “Daniel’s Mother", visited the class several times to pass around pictures of Daniel and to give lessons on India. Word passed swiftly through the school sibout the new kid from India. Allan remarked, “We expected that his own class was going to relate to him in a friendly way but, as it has turned out, virtually everyone in the school has been so attuned to him and kind to him. And Daniel has really responded. For weeks, his primary words were, “Daniel’s house, blue house. Merry Christmas, many friends at school." "Thun deb” Snow Even before Daniel started at Wakefield, the wonders of Christmas time had begun to win his enthusiasm. The night after his arrival, seven inches of snow fell. Daniel's previous experiences of snow had been limited to pictures of the snow capped Himalayas, the bordering giants between India and Tibet. Allan opened a window, scooped a handful from the sill and touched Daniel's face with the cold powdery flakes. Daniel shivered and exclaimed “Thundeh!" or, in English, “Cold!” Recalled \Allan, "Then I ate a little bit at^ he ate a little bit and he just loved that. He laughed and laughed, playing with it the while." According to the Allan’s, Daniel's most profound experience came the night of the Christmas tree decoration: “He was so thrilled with each new box of ornaments that he literally shrieked with joy. He was kissing and hugging every single decoration in ecstasy. He took all of last year's Christmas cards and hugged them to his bosom. Then he brought them up to his room, put them under his pillow and slept with them for days." Whatever delights Daniel has experienced thus far have, it seems, been returned m kind to his family. “He was definitely our best Christmas present this year," concluded the Allans. Pali added. "1 will be delighted to share the information that I have gathered on adoption with anyone who is interested. I know that there are other families out there lor whom adoption would be a great blessing in their lives, loo." I—AmeriGas—. SHENGAS DIVISION 327 No Royal Ave Front Royal.

For want of pure and plentiful water, wars have been fought, fertile lands have become deserts, nations have disappeared. Even the survival and limited growth of Washington, Va., the county seat of Rappahannock County, was threatened. In pagan cultures the water spirits were revered and worshiped. In all civilizations the person who could find and produce water has been honored. The Rappahannock County entry in this competition, which was not only world wide but history long, was an outsider, Larry LeHew, from Warren County. Larry was considered qualified because he has been accepted as the joint-master of the Rappahannock Hunt; because he knows the terrain of the county; has dug many wells in the county and because of his special achievement in finding a full flowing well for “Little Washington” when all others had despaired. Larry is a thorough water seeker. He is willing to use the help of dowsers, of prayer, of geologists from the University of Virginia, and then go it on his own. Since there was no contemporary world quality opposition to Larry, although de-salinizers in Saudi Arabia were considered, a few write-ins for Moses were accepted. Larry contends that there is good reason to believe that Moses struck a good number of rocks with his rod, without success, before he finally hit the right one in the desert and saved the Israelites. A further test and demonstration of Larry LeHew’s trustworthiness occurred just after the water began to flow from the new well in Washington; When the word came that the well could not be put on line in the city water system until approved by the Virginia Department of Health, Larry lay down on the ground, drank the rising water, and declared it perfect and fit for human use—facts sustained by the state testers. Larry is also qualified to test and give advice on other potables. 9. Choosing a most trusted consumer protector was a serious challenge because of the wide range of human needs that seem to have attracted the protectors and because of the number of specialists in the field. In order to get meaningful results, the supervisors of this study set our contestant against individual protectors and also against a composite of all entries. Harvey Gordon, aided by his wife Jean, of H and J’s store on route 231 carried the county banner against this dual opposition, and was judged to be more trustworthy than any one of his opponents, or all of them taken together. Poet, author, former U.S. Senator from Minnesota and candidate for the presidency, Eugene McCarthy now lives in the F.T. Valley near Slate Mills. Harvey does not overproduct. He is reliable and predictable. If Harvey has had some particular piece of merchandise once, he is almost certain to have it the next time anyone asks for it. He may drop an item occasionally but not without giving warning that he is going to do so, or advising prospective buyers that he has dropped it. If a customer asks for something Harvey does not have, he is likely to be advised that Harvey does not have it, never has had it, and never will have it. If one asks Harvey to reserve a Sunday paper he will, and keep it for months waiting for the call. Harvey demonstrated his concern for consumers and his optimism about gasoline prices by being the last, or one of the last, to change the mechanism on his pumps so that they recorded prices in excess of one dollar a gallon. Harvey stuck with the old indicators as long as he could, notifying customers that the cost of a gallon was twice that registered on the pumps. Harvey’s service to consumers, or potential consumers, goes beyond food, drink, tools, and other items of trade. He advises on weather, on road conditions, on hunting prospects (during the season), on how horses are running at Charles Town, West Virginia, and on other matters. Entered against Harvey, singly and in concert, were Nancy St-eorts, chairperson of the Reagan Consumer Product Safety Commission; John Gardner of Common Cause, who has undertaken the difficult task of protecting us from ourselves and from democracy; Father Drinan, head of Americans for Democratic Action, an organization, established in the late 1940s to protect liberals from communists, which this year established a separate committee to study and report to the country on dangerous toys, unfair toys prices, and toys that might have adverse psychological, possibly ideological, effects on children (and one can assume on adults) who also play with the toys. The Avon Lady was included in the test, along with Ronald McDonald, Frank Perdue, and Ralph Nader. 10. The final test was of a more sutble trust, basically of one’s privacy, of secret thoughts, love letters, words, actions, goods and involvements of a highly personal nature, which at some point, and for some time, must be entrusted to other persons or machines or institutions. Bankers were considered, beginning with David Rockefeller of Chase Manhattan Bank. Judge Wevster, Head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, was included, along with the Commissioner of Internal Revenue; and H. R. Block, who offers to help fill out your income tax returns. Margaret Thatcher, Prime Minister of England, who is responsible for the British Royal Mail Service and also for British Intelligence, was considered, as were Brinks, Bell Telephone, Western Union and the winner of TIME magazine’s Thing of the Year, the computer. Finally William Bolger, the Post Master General of the United States, was considered. Where as the judges concluded that the Postal Service, in general, was not fully reliable, that one unit of it was: the Woodville Post Office, run by Mrs. Lacey Orange. She and her carrier service were held to be the most trustworthy protectors of private things, letters, messages, as well as goods - not just ordinary packages, or perishable things, like hams or cheese, but things that can perish absolutely in transit, like baby chickens and bees sent through the mail. In its commitment to deliver, the Woodville Post Office goes far beyond the slogan of the United States Post Office; that “Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds” to add, “nor Rappahannock niud, nor ice on route 621 or 618.

Letters Correction To the editor As a subscriber of your newspaper for nearly twenty years, I read with considerable interest the special article that appeared in the January 27, 1983 issue entitled “Rappahannock —Looking Back 150 Years”. However, the article mistakenly identified the name of the teacher at Forest. Grove school as a Missida Brown. The identification must have come as quite a shock to some of your readers who reside in the Amissville and Castleton area. The full name of the teacher at Forest Grove school was Ida Roberta Browning. This information can be verified by J. T. Woodward whose farm joins the Ida Browning farm. As the niece of the late Miss Ida Roberts Browning, I would very much appreciate a timely identification of her correct name in your newspaper. ELIZABETH BROWNING PAYNE SCHMIDT Arlington Doesn’t Mean Nuclear War To the editor: I would like to point out to the folks at Jordan River Farm and the rest of Rappahannock County that a nuclear war is not necessary for Reagan to order his evacuation plan put into effect. Actually, all that is needed is for: Reagan and his advisors to decide there is a imminent attack. threat of Then they can order us all removed to al “safe” place, with armed protectors of the “peace” to >uard us, of course. I don’t bqlieve it has anything to do with a nuclear w ar, do you? Washington, Va. A. P. Soviet Peace Is Mockery To the editor: We are witnessing a Soviet “Peace” offensive. In Jeremiah 8:11 we read of the judgment of the Lord: “For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying: Peace, Peace, when there is no peace. We looked for peace, but no peace came, and for a time of health, but there was only terror”. “Peace” is a wonderful word. However, the connotation to a Communist is another story. Communist world control is the meaning of the word “peace” to the Soviets. They rely on this word to subvert and undermine non-Communist governments. We all know that here in the U.S. leaders of disarmament groups are having campaigns for a nuclear freeze by influencing public opinion. They do this by means of targeting some of the more susceptible and influential groups such as university professors, students, religious leaders, labor unions, journalists and government officials. The activities of disarmament and nuclear-freeze groups are being coordinated by the World Peace Council which is directed from Moscow. An offshoot in this country, the United States Peace Council, has the objective of stopping development and deployment of the MX missile, the B-l bomber and the Trident submarine. Of particular interest was the first conference of International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War which was held at Airlie, near Warrenton, Virginia in -.March, 1981, and attended by a Soviet delegation headed by Georgy Arbatov, head of the Institute of the U.S. and Canada. It closed on March 21, after 5 days of speeches emphasizing the horrors of nulcear war, the “destablilizing” dangers of U.S. development of new weapons and the desirability of cooperation with the Soviets. This “war called Peace” is a mockery. It is a clear warning and a call to action for those who cherish freedom and refuse to be bound to their mortal and amoral enemy. PAT EARLY Casanova, Va. —Rappahannock News Phntn/D. Hutchinann THE ONLY FULL MEDIC UNIT in the county is now ready to roll at the Flint Hill Firehouse. The advance Jife support system on wheels was financed in part through grants for the vehicle from the Rescue Squad Assistance Fund and for cardiac monitoring equipment from the federal government administered through the planning district’s Emergency Services Council. “Flint Hill having this is a direct result of a lot of hard work from Kenny Pullen and support from the company and the community,” said Flint Hill fireman Frankie Huff. The ambulance will run with any unit in the county that requests assistance. Currently, Flint Hill has two certified cardiac technicians with three additional volunteers now taking training. Letters To The Editor Lottery Is Timely Idea To the editor: In almost every conversation these days, one topic is inevitably bound to surface - money. Our Governor, Chuck Robb, talked of recent budget cuts in a December joint Committee meeting: “These actions have resulted in a total reduction in spending of $123 million. If we were to continue only the present five percent cutback ^into .Ihe second year .qjf, the. biennium, against the same programs, and continue all of our existing initiatives to control costs, we would still need $130 million more to balance our budget for the biennium.” Virginians know, economically, times are rough and will get rougher before they get better. We all know how history repeats itself; for example, during the founding of our Commonwealth, wise citizens such as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Nathaniel Harrison and the Byrds discovered a viable solutionthe lottery. Money raised was used to finance the Virginia Company, build churches, schools, canals and other worthwhile projects. I believe most Virginians feel they have plenty of taxes levied against them and do not want more. This is the reason I think a state lottery for Virginia is an idea whose time has come. I realize there are a few readers who will quit at this point, but I ask you to hear me out. A state run public lottery system is a direct way of raising revenue without raising taxes, i.e. a “voluntary” tax. Lotteries are already operational in 14 states and another 15 are in the process of implementing one. For example, Pennsylvania raises $152 million a year, using this money for free mass transit and reducing taxes paid by the elderly; Maryland’s lottery, after 6 years of operation, nets $175 million a year, netting more money than any other program except for income taxes and there has been no hint of scandal to its lottery program or to those of any other state control led lotteries; and Washington, D.C. just initiated a lottery expected to net approximately $30 million a year. It is my belief, founded on numerous conversations with Virginias, that we are subsidizing lotteries operating in neighboring states. It is also a fact that most urban cities have illegal numbers games which a state controlled lottery will surely cut down, if not eliminate. A lottery is an indirect form of gambling, with three important distinctions: 1) a public lottery is inexpensive to administer; 2) a public lottery involves relatively little investment by the individual; »nd 3) the lottery system is 'easily insulated from the Inevitable pressures that organized crime and politics exert on gambling. Unlike legalized gambling and taxes on liquor or tobacco, state lottery proceeds are not gained at the expense of a lower - or upper-class. An Atlanta-based study concluded the majority of lottery players are from the middle class (18,000 to $56,000 income bracket). To say Virginia does not allow gambling is not accurate. Legal lotteries and gambling are allowed in the form of bingo and raffles, .instant and scratch-off games, newspaper and football games, games of chance sponsored by clubs, civic organizations, fast food chains, grocery stores and others. One should keep in mind that 1983 is an election year and no legislator will want to raise taxes, but once senators, serving 4 year terms, take office, Virginians better be prepared for increases! It is noteworthy that most city councils are advocating increasing the sales tax to 5 percent, which applies to food. I would prefer that the General Assembly support and pass a state run public lottery bill; however, an alternative would be to give voters a referendum on the lottery. Many voters throughout our Commonwealth have expressed favortism of a lottery - whether they would play it or not. A lottery will not eliminate taxes, but will prevent increases as well as providing alternative sources of revenue that will be generated and managed by Virginians for our benefit. I urge each of you to contact your delegate and senator and express your views about a lottery. J.W. (Billy) O’BRIEN, JR. Virginia Beach EPA Visit Cancelled The representative from the federal Environmental Protection Agency’s Philadelphia office was a “no-show” for last Thursday’s scheduled visit to Sperryville. Bob Dennjs, secretary of the Rappahannock Water and Sewer Authority, an nounced Wednesday evening that the EPA representative had cancelled the visit due to illness. The inspection of the site^ (where $1.4 million in ^EPi| funds is slated to be Spedt on a sewer system) will be rescheduled sometime in the future, Dennif added. -From Both BarrelsHardball Politics By GEORGE BOWLES The regular business of the General Assembly is usually conducted in a genteel and generally bi-partisan sort of way. For the most part, the lawmakers represent the interests of thejr constituents—or their favorite lobbyists—with little more than lip service to party discipline. But behind the facade of gentility and genial nonpartisanship in this year’s legislative session something very different appears to be taking place. Indeed, the heat of party politics had become so intense at midweek that the facade showed signs of cracking. The reason is easily understood. At the present time the Republicans occupy eight seats in the Senate while 32 are held by Democrats. In the House of Delegates there are 34 Republicans, 65 Democrats and one Independent. With all 140 seats in both houses up for election this year, the Republicans are mounting a determined drive to increase their numbers in each chamber. The Democrats are equally determined to at least hold the line, or perhaps increase their majorities. For both parties the initial battleground in the November balloting is the Assembly session now in progress. House GOP members were outraged last week over what they regarded as a blatant example of power politics by the Democrats. At issue was the sponsorship of a bill which would raise the legal age for drinking beer front 18 to 21. The concept was not in question—it had broad support on both sides of the aisle. Further, sponsorship of the measure was seen, rightly or wrongly, as a distinct political asset in this election year. For half a decade, Del. Warren Barry (R-Fairfax) had been trying unsuccessfully to get such a change in the law through the Assembly, and this year he again introduced his measure. A somewhat different bill was introduced by Del. Mary Sue Terry (DStuart). After a public hearing on these and several similar bills, a subcommittee was named to come up with proposed legislation which would be placed before the Assembly. When the Democratic dominated subcommittee filed its report, the Terry Bill was used as the vehicle for the likely change in the law, with the Democrats, needless to say, claiming the credit. Del. Barry angrily charged that the Democrats had proved that, as he put it, “You can mix alcohol and politics.” He strongly felt his bill had been kidnapped!There were dark GOP niutterings about “Terry and the pirates.” In their search for a way to even the score, the Republicans have hit upon a potential political bombshell. Last week the Senate passed a bill which, if it clears the House and is signed by the governor, will make Jan. 15, Dr. Martin Luther King’s birthday, a state holiday. A similar bill passed the Senate last year but died. with the help of a strong Republican negative vote, in the House General Laws Committee. A similar fate appeared to await this year’s version. But now the GOP legislators are having second thoughts. A ranking Republican member of the House confirmed to me last week that his party may use the King bill to attempt to put House Democrats on a poltical hot spot in the fall elections. If the bill perishes in committee, the other House Democrats will be spared having to vote on the controversial measure. Hence the Republicans have come up with a strategy for forcing all Democrats to go on record on the bill at minimal political risk to themselves. When the King legislation comes before the 20-member General Laws Committee this time around, the eight GOP committee members will ‘take a walk.” That is, they will abstain from voting. Thus, if the 12 Democratic members report the measure out, it will go to the floor where all members must then cast recorded votes for or against it. Republicans believe, if the bill passes, white voters in conservative areas will blame ihe Democrats, and if it fails either in committee or on the floor, black voters everywhere will be furious. In either case the GOP strategists believe they have ihe Democrats boxed in. Perhaps they do, but there is one terror unrelated to the elections with which they may not have reckoned. House Speaker A. L. Philpott makes committee assignments, and in the past be has been reasonably fair about giving Republicans Iheir equitable share of committee posts. But if the GOP pulls this caper, the powerful “A. L.” may be mad enough to let the nffending Republicans roam ihe halls of Mr. Jefferson’s Capitol like so many lost souls for the next few years while solid Democratic committees deliberate upon the proposed laws of the Commonwealth. Such is the hardball politics of'83. —Rappahannock Newt Phntn/D. Hutchinaon LOCAL REALTORS Eileen Day and Sam Snead have been elected as officers for the Piedmont Board of Realtors.

Panthers Pummel District Foes To Retain Lead In Bull Run By joe McCullough Rappahannock New* Sport* Witter Rappahannock’s Varsity Panthers, now ranked 12th in the state, earned a two-game edge over their closest rivals in the Bull Run District after downing the host Brentsville Tigers Friday and defeating Clarke County in Berryville this Tuesday. Tom Sisk tipped in an errant shot for a 2-0 lead at Brentsville that the Panthers never relinquished. Rappahannock’s scoring barrage was capped by a floating Clarence Pendleton who glided to the basket and dropped the ball through for a 9-0 advantage. Brentsville’s Mike Brown kept it honest when he hit the Tigers’ first three buckets, all from beyond 30 feet, to cut the difference to 9-6. RCHS widened the gap to eight, 179, at the end of the first quarter. Center Mike Leake, a leading scorer in the Bull Run District, gave Rapp its biggest first half advantage. Controlling the offensive boards, he laid the ball back up repeatedly to put the Panthers in front, 27-16. But foul shooting was a I At A Glance • • • FQ FT TP Rappahannock 73 J. Porter T. Sisk C.

Tosses at the charity stripe rolled off the rim or bounced from the backboard into the hands of the Tigers. Then the Brentsville squad would race down court. Unable to work the ball inside, they unleashed long jumpers that miraculously found the mark, chipping away until the deficit was just 27-24. Doyle Dunn made sure that the surge didn’t go any further, however. With his jumpers and the instant Pendleton offense, the Panthers managed to stay three in front, 35-32, at the half. Back on the court after the halftime break, Leake made his presence felt under the basket, out-fmnessing the Tigers on a three-point ply that set the mark at 47-39. “Those who live by the long jumper die by the long jumper,” some baksetball pundit once said, and that’s exactly what happened to the Brentsville Tigers against a stable and pressing Panther defense. Dunn, perhaps one of the best defensive players in the district, and his teammates forced the Tigers to shoot from way outside or not at all. With Leake banging the boards, the Tigers were restricted to just one chance at a bucket each JV In Slump The Junior Panthers’ hold on the top spot in Bull Run junior varsity competition is hanging by a thread after Rappahannock’s JV dropped its fourth straight game in a loss to Clarke County’s Eagles, 44-38, on Tuesday. The Panthers had only one bucket in the first quarter. Tommy Jenkins paced RCHS with 18 points. Last Friday night, Rapp’s JV was defeated by the Brentsville Tigers, 41-32. Rappahannock had a 14-12 first quarter lead, riding four blocked shots by Jenkins. But the Panthers seemed to go into a trance, particularly on defense, that allowed the Tigers to push to victory. Jenkins was again high for Rappahannock with 17 points. _ WAYNE DOG FOOD from the CO-OP gives you TWICE THE SAVINGS IN THE BAG 1st $ 200 refund from the : manufacturer 2nd s 200 coupon for your next Wayne bite size or chunk size purchase r Wayna DOG FOOD Bit• Sin.

They managed to hit enough to stay in the game, trailing by only five, 54-49, at the start of the final period. But then it was blow-out time for Rappahannock. The pressure of the Panther' defense held the Tigers to just a single field goal in the fourth quarter. It didn’t come until five minutes had ticked off the clock and by then the score was 62-51. The Panthers continued on to an easy win 73-51. Coach Doyle Dawson went to his bench with several minutes left and the subs held the Tigers scoreless while tossing in a few points themselves. Coach Dawson was especially pleased with the way the Panthers offense functioned despite the absence of senior playmaker Robert Myers, who was ill. Pops Aylor grabbed the helm and under his leadership, the Panthers committed a season-low ten turnovers. Aylor also had five of Rapp’s 19 assists. “This is team work at its best. When everybody is willing to dish off the ball, our offense becomes' a complete team effort,” said Dawson. “If we keep up this kind of complete team play, we’ll go far in the state tournament,” the coach predicted. The Panthers had one of their better games on the offensive boards against Brentsville, pulling in 15 of 34 rebounds. Dawson pointed out that his quad shot about 50 percent from the floor, evidence that shot selection was improving. He singled out Leake’s contribution as particularly significant. The Panthers’ big man connected on 11 of 15 from the field to be high for the night at 25. Dunn added 16 points and Sisk had his third straight games in double figures with 12. Lac Id alter Win The Panthers upped their record to 12-4 overall and 7-1 in the district after slipping by the host Clarke County Eagles, 64-51, Tuesday night. The Panthers earned an early 8-t lead after Pendleton hit a gliding lay-up and they owned the advantage for the rest of the contest. Rapp’s defense stifled the Eages as Pops Aylor stole the ball and then connected at the charity stripe after the ensuing foul. Mike Leake grabbed offensive rebounds and either laid the ball in or hit from the free throw line as the Eagles were forced to resort to fouls to stop the big center. For six minutes, Clarke couldn’t buy a score as the Panthers streaked to a 53-45 halftime advantage. Lazy third quarter defense by the Panthers enable the home team to work back up to a tie, 31 all, but the Eagles just couldn’t pull ahead. Then Tom Sisk hit a lay-up for a 33-31 edge and continued his scoring barrage with a shot underneath to stretch the margin to 37-33. But the Eagles preserved and their offensive rebounding and steals cut an eight point deficit to two points at the start of the final period. But they hit another icey could draft in the fourth quarter, failing to score for five minutes this time. Led by Aylor, Leake and Dunn, Rapp’s fast break increased the spread to 57-45 with a minute and a half left in the game. The outcome was never in doubt from that point on as the Panthers held a 13 point advantage, 64-51, at the buzzer. Despite the win, coach Dawson was not pleased with his quad’s play. “We were sickening on the defensive boards, played lazy defense in the first and third quarters and we had too much sloppy passing.” Dawson was also disappointed with the 16 of 41 attempts front he floor going into the fourth quarter. But Dawson attributed the performance to looking ahead to the home game this Friday against George Mason, the only district team to beat the Panthers this year. After Friday’s home contest with the Mason Mustangs, RCHS will travel to Stonewall Jackson on February 8, face Strasburg at home on February 11 and finish the regular season on the road against Manassas Park on February 15. If the Panthers maintain thir first place position in the Bull Run District, the tournament quarter finals will be played at RC HS on February 23. Tournament semi-finals and finals are set for Warren County High School in Front Royal on February 25 and 2h.

ROGER BATCHELDER, Wherehouse Service Across from Rush River Co., Washington, Va. 22747 675-3777 Res: 937-4388 Put A Chicken In Your Pot By THERESA REYNOLDS Rappahannock Staff Writcr Even a chicken may be cooked on top of a woodburning stove if you’re note in a big hurry. This method for cookig is a good one to use even in the summer on your regular stove. It’s also a good way to cook a chicken when cold cooked chicken is needed for another recipe. This does require a surface hot enough to simmer liquid. (212 degrees) Stove Top Chicken In a large iron pot or dutch oven heat three tablespoons olive oil or butter. Add three garlic cloves, chopped and two large onions, chopped. With fire burning hard, brown a whole (3-4 lb. or larger) chicken in the hot fat, turning so all sides brown. Remove chicken from pan onto another platter. De-glaze pan by adding a little brandy, red wine and water (or all water), stirring up pieces of garlic and onion from bottom. Use enough water or combination of liquids to cover about two inches of the pot. Protect browned chicken from falling apart by tying a piece of heavy twine around legs, crossing and tying wings to body. Put two or three canning rings in the bottom of the pot, add chicken, cover, season as desired and simmer until done (about 1V/i hours at steady simmer.) Add water to pot as needed. To serve, cut chicken in pieces, arrange on platter, and pour pan juices over chicken. This chicken smells wonderful while it simmers away on your stove. It can be varied, with fresh tarragon, dill or basil, or dried parsley and marjoram and extra garlic. Reader Requests: Readers have requested recipes used locally. Grateful Reader writes; “Would you be so kind as to see whether Nature’s Foods will publish the recipe for the extraordinarily tasty tomato soup they serve? It was tilled with dill, I’m sure.” This Spicy Tomato Soup is from the Moose wood Cookbook and, as Grateful Reader guessed, uses dill weed. Spicy Tomato Soup 1 Vi cups minced onion 3 cloves crushed garlic ITbs butter lTbs butter 1 Tbs olive oil 1 tsp dill wee '/s tsp. (or more) black pepper 2 lbs. crushed tomatoes, concentrated 2 cups stock or water, or six cups chopped canned tomatoes plus their liquid. 1 Tbs honey I Tbs mayonnaise or sour cream 2 medium fresh tomatoes, chopped Yogurt, parsley, scallions for topping. Saute onions and garlic with salt in combined olive oil and butter in a kettle or large saucepan. Cook five minutes, until translucent. Then add dill, pepper, tomatoes and honey. Cover and simmer at least 45 minutes over law heat. Five minutes before serving, whisk in mayonnaise and sour cream to correct seasonings. Serve hot, topped with yogurt, chopped parsley and scallions. (I used 2 quarts homecanned tomatoes with their liquid, with fine results) Sherry Landsman requested this recipe Rappahannock Kitchen for French bread, based on one developed by Christine Andreae of Overall. This makes 8 medium or 10 slender long loaves. French Bread 2 quarts warm water 3 tablesppons yeast 3 tablespoons salt 3 tablespoons sugar 5 lbs. unbleached good quality flour, or enough to make proper dough. Dissolve sugar, salt, yeast in water. Add flour, gradually, knead until dough is smooth and elastic. Cover. Let rise until double, punch down. Shape into 8-10 narrow loaves in baguette pans. Spray with water, cover, let rise again at room temperature or overnight in refrigerator. To bake: Preheat oven at 425. Spray loaves again with water, bake 15 minutes at 425, reduce heat to 350, bake 30 minutes at 350, spraying after 10 arid 20 minutes. Serve immediately or cool, wrap, and freeze.
