33ra YEAR. NO. 32 USPS 455580 12 Papes THURSDAY, AUGUST 11, 1983 WASHINGTON. VIRGINIA Phan# 675-3349 . —Rappahannock News Photo/D. Hutchinson GETTING IN THE SWIM OF THINGS, Vinnie DeLouise took his young charges to the bottom of the pool for the camera. Warned before hand not to say “cheese”, Veronica Myers, Mark Jenkins, Jessie Waites and Sally Lawler may have opened their eyes but they kept their mouths shut. Cool Fun In The Summer Sun ENTERING THE WATER BABY RANKS, Sally Lawler was just learning to relax in the pool at Monday’s swimming class. TOPS IN THE CLASS — Martha Sue Estes shoots through the water after diving off the edge of the pool. Swiinmiii’ Is Easy For Tots In just one day, fouryear-old Sally Lawler went from barely dipping her face in the water to sitting cross legged on the bottom step at the shallow end, a trail of bubbles rising to the pool surface a few inches above her head. “Every day, somebody’s blossoming,” said Vinnie DeLouise, instructor for the eight-lesson Sursum Corda swimming classes going on at Mr. and Mrs. D.L. Price’s pool in the Tiger Valley. DeLouise’s charges range from little Sally, a bouncy ball of splashes and kicks, to Martha Sue Estes whose freestyle stroke comes close to water ballet perfection after a week of lessons. This year, DeLouise has pushed the age limit up to four yeas old. He has worked with toddlers but finds that they need more individual attention than group lessons allow. And relying on small private pools that he’s used in three years of teaching Sursum Corda sponsored swim classes, there’s no room for mothers to hop in with their babies, the standard approach for infant lessons. DeLouise offers parents a few hints on how to begin teaching their children how to swim. First, have the child hold his breath out of the water. “It’s tough. That’s the hardest part,” he said, adding with a laugh that most four and five year olds would rather do anything than shut their mouths, even for a few seconds. “Next you have to convince them that holding their breath out of the water is the same thing as holding it in and then un(Continued on Page 2) There’ll Be A Change In The Weather. . . State climatologist Pat Michaels admits he’s been saying for a couple of weeks that the weather situation will turn around soon. He continues to forecast more rain than .normal during the second half of the summer. Sounding rather like a soothsayer as he spoke from his Charlottesville office early this week, Michaels predicted, “I don’t have the negative feelings. We should have a fairly strong cold front by late Tuesday afternoon or Tuesday night. There should be fairly heavy thunder storms. There will be a major change in the weather soon.” Michaels says what most local gardeners and farmers know — that there has been a substantial crop yield reduction this year, but he says this has been a typical summer so far. By contrast, Michaels points to the summers of 1977 and 1980 which were definite drought situations. During August, 1980, it was not only dry, but hot. So hot that the National Weather Service in Washington, D.C. ’ recorded 21 days in a row when high temperatures hit 90 degrees or more. Michaels doesn’t think it will be that hot this year. Nor does he think the state « will suffer a definite drought — at least not by meterologists’ measures. Michaels cites two scientific standards that he says haven’t been met yet: the Palmer drought severity index and the crop moisture index. Under the first standard, deep soil moisture must measure minus two for there to be a drought. Michaels says the current state-wide measure is -1.25. The crop moisture index detects stress on agricultural plants by evaluating top soil moisture. Again, minus two denotes drought conditions, and the current state-wide figure of-1.8 approaches but misses that point. If Michaels’ forcasts for rain hold true, the local effects of dry weather on the fruit crop can be pretty well reversed. Orchardist Lewis Moore says his peaches are down by 2Vi (or about 50 percent) in size and the apples are down by about 2xh but that he has some six weeks to go before the final effects will be known. Many of his trees are late harvesting varieties such as red delicious, winesap and black twigs. He says the small apples could recover with enough rain. Meanwhile, George (Continued on Page 2) —Rappahannock News Photo/D Hutchinson REDUCED TO A TRICKLE the Rush River seeps rather than rushes by the Fodderstack bridge. Usually a favorite spot for town youngsters, the ol’ swimming hole has been deserted as low water levels leave bare rocks and mud flats in place of sparkling pools. Superintendent Wants Parents To Help Evaluate Schools “These are not my schools99 — Robert Estabrook By MICHELE MAY Rappahannock New. Staff Writer When the national commission on educational excellence submitted its report to the president in April, a smattering of response began to be heard from around the country rising from the grassroots and the local school boards agreeing or disputing the commission’s opinion that America had been caught up in a “rising tide of mediocrity.” For the first time in the country’s history, the report asserted, the educational skills of one generation will not even approach those of their parents. “Not in our county!” came the cry from neighboring districts. Culpeper School Superintendent Tony Stewart said his philosoph’ ical approach toward education since the beginning of his career has been a “back t to the basics” approach. < Last spring, Stewart responded to the “Nation at Risk” report saying Cul! peper students are making advances each year in the ■ areas of reading, writing, match and science. Fauquier County School Superintendant S. Harold Lamm said at the time that the schools under his jurisdiction had already begun to blaze trails towards incorporating the content included in the commission’s recommendations, especially in the area of computer science, one of the so-called •3 “new basics.” * i Until last week, Rappahannock School Superintendant Robert Estabrook has remained largely silent on the subject and then he told approximately 30 people gathered in the elementary school auditorium, “I hope you have not come expecting me to preach and expecting a long speech that goes on for hours.” Estabrook repeated previous staements that he wants public involvement in curriculum planning and for parents to share their evaluations of Rappahannock schools with him, the school board and teachers. “What above all else do you want your children to become proficient at?” he asked his audience. “They’re your children. They’re your schools. They’re not my schools. They’re our schools.” Estabrook had a few preliminary remarks about the report before opening the floor up for discussion. Cheap Shot Estabrook accused the commission of using an overabundance of generalities and of taking “cheap shots” at the nation’s school systems. He admitted the truth of an alleged “indicator of risk”—that more than half the population of gifted students do not match their tested ability with school achievement. Yet Estabrook called it a “utopian view” that students should always achieve at fiill ability level. “How many people do?” he asked. “Do any of you always run on all four burners?” Estabrook questioned the “competitive notions of ranking” in which one student is pitted against another, one school system against another, American schools against those of the Soviets. “Education,” he said, “is not about getting ahead. It’s about enjoying the joy of learning. ” In the area of test scores, Estabrook suggested the apparently contradictory idea that low scores are a sign of success in the schools. The reason is that the sort of student who used to drop out now stays in school long enough to take the tests. In the days when there was less emphasiB on vocational training, only the best students survived to take achievement tests. Thus the scores averaged higher than they do now that students of a lower ability level are included. The primary task facing educators today, Estabrook said, is to figure out how to get students fired up. The challenge is qualitative rather than quantitative. Estabrook suggested that the idea of lengthening the school year is a mistake if the additional time is only used to do more of the same, which, most admit isn’t working. In other words, he said putting a sign that says MATH on a door and shut ting young people in there for three years doesn’t mean that they’ll come out knowing how to add and substract. Leaving them in there longer doesn’t mean that they’ll learn better. Again, he issued his challenge to the audience, “We can do a better job, but first we must define the job we want done and divide it into manageable portions.” If the schools are given too many new tasks and the same length of time to teach, Estabrook said mastery of each subject would necessarily diminish. “We can’t continue to solve every job that’s thrown at us," he said, pointing out that in recent years schools have been expected to place greater emphasis on such subjects as sex education, drug awareness, environmental issues, death and dying.. . “In the ’60s, the educational emphasis was on feeling good about oneself,” he added, “but now it’s back to the basics.” Just Jargon But E stab rook says even the expression “back to basics” is just so much jargon from educators unless some consensus is made about what is basic to education. He pointed to the audience saying, what is basic to one person is not the same as what is basic to another. Vocational education may be (Continued on Page ‘<5) $130,000 For Repair Shocks Board By MICHELE MAY Rappahannock News Staff Writer Money was a frequent matter for discussion at this week’s Rappahannock School Board meeting. It was somewhat of a shock for some school board members and audience members alike to hear a price-tag of $130,000 for a new roof at the elementary school. In his presentation, school superintendant Robert Estabrook said that the roof is definitely in need of major work. A local firm which did repairs a year ago has voluntarily returned gratis six times since to stop leaks. Estabrook met with a Richmond roofing firm recommended by the architect working on the bus shop Corn tassels droop and water levels drop as the dry weather continues. But weathermen promise there's relief on the way. project and was told that the work could be done in two to four year phases with the cost of the first year approximately $30,000. That’s the amount left in the current building fund project after completion of the bus shop. Estabrook said he like the next phases to be included in coming budget requests. Estabrook declined to identify or discuss the Richmond roofing firm, saying the company’s qualifications should be a matter for executive committee. The company installs “singleply, vulcanized, single unit roof membranes.” The roofs are a rubber product that helps water run-off during rain-storms.. A similar firm is currently doing work for the Fauquier schools and repaired the Pearl Sample Elementary School in Culpeper. Estabrook says he met with the roofing firm in May, but waited until completion of the bus shop project before bringing the information to the board. He wanted to see how much was left in the budget before making any request. The first step in the project, Estabrook says, would be to make an infra-red inspection of the roof to see which portions retain the most moisture. In -that way the sections likely to have the most leaks can be discovered for early repairs. The board took no formal action of the matter, waiting to discuss the firm fiirther in executive section. Board member Nancy Reeve quipped that it might be less costly to build an extra story with a sloping roof. Another building matter proved to be less expensive. Estabrook presented results of an inspection of all school property for asbestos. These inspections are required by the federal government in response to EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) findings that asbestos could be a carcinogen. Two years ago its use was banned as an insulator during construction of government buildings, including schools. Naturally, Estabrook reported there was no asbes(('ontinued on Page:i) Old Mills.

Franchise, Water And Color Of Town Hall Addressed The town of Washington’s proposed franchise agreement for electrical service sparked no interest at last Wednesday’s advertised public hearing, judging from the turn-out. Not a single resident appeared to speak for or against the 25year contract for providing power to the town. Representatives from Potomac Edison, the current holder of the Washington franchise, told the council members that the utility will bid on continuing under the terms of the new contract. With no further discussion, the council adopted the franchise agreement (printed in its entirety in a legal advertisement on page 3.) “We had a water scare shortly after our last meeting,” reported Mayor Newbill Miller. “I don’t think the problem lies with our source,” he added, noting that several nruyor leaks in the line had been located and repaired and that the situation is now stable. “We were sure putting out some water,” remarked councilman Taylor Updike. “We sure were,” the mayor agreed. Pumps at the town reservoir will only push 40 gallons per minute into the system and when demand exceeds that figure, pressure in the lines drops, he noted. Usage was up to 50,000 gallons per day, councilman Brad Fisher said. “The town normally uses less than 10,000 gallons per day.” At the same time that he expressed certainty about the adequacy of Washington’s supply, Miller repeated a request for users to conserve water. “If we had a surface reservoir, I wouldn’t be concerned. We could see how much we have. But it’s subterranean so we don’t know for sure how much is down there." He noted that town residents are watering their gardens and lawns to offset the impact of July’s drought-like weather. “Onc£‘ irrigation stops, we won’t have any problem with pressure (in the lines),” Miller said. The mayor complimented work done by Johnny Ray Pullen, new maintenance supervisor for the water system. “We sure were lucky to find him.” “He wants a place to store his tools,” Updike interjected. “He can use a room in the church,” the mayor replied and was immediately taken to task by councilwoman Dorothy Hawkins, who scolded Miller for his oversight in failing to identify the building properly. “It’s not the church anymore! It’s the town hall, Mr. Mayor!” Hawkins insisted. “I’m wrong—as usual,” (Continued on Page 2)

Local School Officials Seek Solutions (Continued from Page 1) basic to some. Fine arts to others. After a brief recess, citizens listed their concerns and offered opinions on what should be basic to the education of Rappahannock youngsters. High school principal Robert Chappell, assistant superintendant Tom Campbell, school board chairman Beverly Massie, and 17 local residents spoke before the meeting’s conclusion. Tim Breedlove placed special education at the top of the list. He spoke for a professional parents’ group that hopes to start handicapped training work sites in the county. The program would work with people from junior high through adult education. Camille Harris said she would like to see schooling geared more toward all levels of ability and with enough options for each. For example, the kindergarten pupil who can already read shouldn’t have to wait for the rest of the class to catch up. On the other hand, the slow student has special abilities that need to be discovered and strengthened. Harris added that she would like to see a greater degree of parent involvement, a more active PTA and more parent volunteers in the schools. The schools should communicate early test scores with parents so the pupils can be tutored at home before they fall hopelessly behind. Also, Harris said, building space at the high school is the most serious financial deficiency. She feels there should be more science labs, language labs, lunch rooms, and computer training space — and the money is needed even if it means a tax increase.

Virginia. BY: RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION A.Y. STOKES, CHAIRMAN eluded, there should be a review of procedures for probation and expulsion. Retired teacher Diane Wood told the group that five years ago she had been “ashamed to tell peers” that she had chosen education for her career. The quality of schools, she said, depends on the teacher index salary issue and attracting a greater percentage of the cream of the colleges’ crops into the country’s classrooms. Wood chose the county’s gifted and talented program as the one she would most like to see expanded. So did Nancy Schoppet. Schoppet said she was disappointed when she moved to the area to find that there was no day-to-day G&T program in place in Rappahannock. Regarding G&T, Janice Moffett said the two-week summer session had been successful in showing her youngster how to look beneath the surface of things to find more than one answer to a problem, rather than memorizing answers. Moffett thinks a similar course would benefit all students and not just the gifted. The quality of a locality’s schools is the single most important incentive to new employers, according to Frank Reynolds, and Rappahannock can afford to have the best. “In Rappahannock County, we don’t pay a lot for government services,” he said, “and so we can afford schools on a par with any in the state.” Regarding Estabrook’s criticism of the commission report that it included too many generalities, Reynolds responded that the portion dealing with content recommendations is very specific and should be adopted by Rappahannock schools as a guide. He concluded his remarks saying, “We should accept no less than the best. There isn’t anything any better we can spend our money on.” Jungle Warfare Retired teacher Diana Bird remarked that most of the county’s older residents would be willing to pay higher taxes to fund better education. “We are willing to pay the taxes to get the best,” she said. “We didn’t come here looking to find the cheapest tax.” A local activist, Bird pledged her support to the parents' groups urging them to participate on a political level. She especially advised that those Concerned about education in Rappahannock get registered to vote so "Doc" Godfrey's VOLKSWAGEN SPECIALS 1983 RABBIT L 2-Door, gas.

But Bird said she would not be the commander-inchief for this fight. “I will join your Viet Cong,” she said, “but I will not organize it.” Bird added that her educational priorities include special education and the arts. She pointed out that the commission neglected to mention the fine or performing arts and said that when she was teaching she found the arts “a tool for educating and a liberating force.” Many “brilliant, but psychologically disturbed students” can be reached through art, music or drama classes, she said. Bird added that the socalled basics don’t necessarily equip young people to cope as well as classes that foster communication skills. “Most people fail in life because they can’t get along with others, not because they can’t do math,” she said. Teacher Lynne Baines told specific stories about cases she has seen during her 12 years with the system and blamed a great part of the problems on the lack of available adult education. “Most students derive their parents standards,” she said, “They don’t get incentive from teachers. ” Unless parents are edu-. cated enough to help their children with assignments, the children wall generally fail, she said. “I was told when I came here that 50 percent of my seventh grade class would not graduate. I could predict by the second half of the semester as if with a crystal ball which ones.” While Baines says the system “has made great strides in the drop-out rate”, she told of a young woman she knew who was “trapped at the tender age of 26” because she had dropped out of school to marry. When her husband was suddenly killed in an accident, she didn’t have the money to return t« school to get the diploma she so badly needed to find work to support herself and two children. Baines thinks the case is fairly typical of local high school drop-outs. “Their kids are in school now.” she Town Council (Continued from Page 1) Miller said, grinning an apology. “The town hall it is.” Hawkins suggested that the upstairs of the town hall be used for Pullen’s tools. “The fire department’s only using half. Besides, they have plenty of room of their own to store things now.” Fisher agreed to check with the fire department volunteers on moving the rest of their materials to the fire hall. After a lengthy discussion on hues and shades, the council members agreed on a color scheme for repainting the town hall. Miller reported that Evelyn Willis, an interior decorator who chose the colors for Douglas Baumgardner’s new offices, suggested white for the main portion of the building, black green for the roof and shutters and cranberry red for the door. By consensus, the council agreed to stick with the black grCen and cranberry red and substitute “the lightest of gray” for the white. Solicitation of bids for the painting project was authorized with the council reserving the right to reject any and all bids. Contractors interested in the project are to call Mayor Newbill Miller for additional information.

And they’re out there in huge numbers.” Sharon Kilpatrick said she would like to see “the schools used year around and not just for doing the same things.” She mentioned the specific need for a gifted and talented program, foreign languages, computer training. “I have seen a parade between Wakefield and the public schools,” she said, concerning citizen discontent with local education, but she added many of the parents who would otherwise participate are on vacation and unable to attend meetings. “This handful of people here tonight is no in dication of interest,” she concluded. Barney O’Meara “borrowed the soap-box” for a minute to castigate Estabrook because his presentation during the meeting “side-stepped specific recommendations.” O’Meara questioned Estabrook regarding priorities he had placed on the schools when he went before the board of supervisors at budget review time in January. In brief responses, Estabrook said, yes, he still supports the index pay scale for teachers. Yes, he thinks the system needs an extra math teacher. Yes, he thinks the lack of space at the high school is a problem and that the building should be ex panded. But, no he doesn’t necessarily think that Spanish should be added to the curriculum. “What criteria shall we use?” Estabrook asked the crowd. “W^hy add more subjects until the criteria is set out? Will we use the utilitarian approach?” Estabrook repeated the plea for parents to get involved in curriculum review. “What kind of interface articulation needs to be in place before the student moves on?” he asked. “Scholars have diced up knowledge and now teachers teach disciplines, but how do the courses connect? Or is education a jig-saw puzzle that the students can’t quite fit together?” Estabrook says maybe math teachers should review English lesson plans and vice versa so curriculum would have an over-all direction. He said maybe the school should send questionnaires to parents to get greater input on the present state of education in Rappahannock County. Then he would “synthesize public opinion” to present to the school board. “We need to hear from many, many more,” he said, “We need to get as precise as possible of a survey of schools of the entire county. This report is not the end-all. ” Estabrook offered to hold more meetings on a continuing basic to hear from parents and also invited them to meet with him informally as well.

Chandler, skeppist, is reviving the almostlost art of making straw skeps, the old-fashioned type of honeybee hive. The Northern Piedmont Beekeepers Association recently hosted a meeting on Red Oak Mountain, where Chandler displayed a variety of skeps constructed of such materials as rye, broomsedge, and cattails. Chandler’s skeps are sturdy, beautiful baskets that are easily crafted. “Keep them dry,” says Chandler, “and they will last a lifetime.” Skeps are still used throughout Europe, but are illegal in America because of difficulty of harvesting honey from them and inspection for diseases. Chandler knows of no one else in the eastern U.S. who still makes them.

Sharp’s major concern is the current condition of pastures. The last rain helped quite a bit, he says, but he may need to water it twice a week so he won’t have to feed the livestock early this year. Amateur weatherwatcher Dennis Wingfield says he enjoys keeping records, but he doesn’t like the looks of the ones he has gathered so far this month in Sperrvville. During the first week of August, precipitation totaled 1.43 inches, about an inch behind the same period last year. Also, Wingfield says it’s hotter this year than last. Half of the days so far had temperatures in the 90 range this year, while the first week of August last year remained below 90 degrees. Wingfield is fascinated by the weather and says it’s something especially important in a rural area. Farmers never take the weather for granted as city folks sometimes do, says Wingfield, who’s the local Channel four weather watcher. He noted that the “corn has tasseled before its time” and that the “ground is kind of baked right now.” But he wasn’t ready to enthuse over Michaels forecasts for cooler, wetter weather. “Until man can learn what the jet stream does before the jet stream does it,” he said, “you never can predict 100 percent accurately.” Swimmin’ Is Easy (Continued from Page 1) der the water.” He advised having novices watch — really watch — an experienced swimmer, all th.. while explaining the arm and leg movements.

Asbestos in the high school and elementary school was minimal, mostly gathered around pipes and ducts in the heating system and in the furnace room. The board voted to direct the building maintenance staff to perform recommended corrections. A portion of the report is also to be published in the Rappahannock News for public record. Estabrook said Rappahannock schools were lucky; other systems have been required to “replace voluminous ceilings.” A third money matter was the setting of fees for the coming school year. School board chairman Beverly Massie said it was “ distressing to us that we have to charge more this year” in the elementary school. After meeting with elementary school principal Maggie Piper, administrators recommended raising the fees **** “It is a maxim with me not to ask what under similar circumstances, I would not grant."—George Washington (1796) from $18 to $23 in grades kindergarten through three, and from $28 to $32 in grades four through seven. In supporting a motion to approve the change, school board member Paul Nichols said, “I don’t want to see the fees go up, but Miss Piper has done a lot of research and if it has to be done, it has to be.” School board member Nancy, Reeve, while voting for the increase, suggested that the board discuss the possibility of funding part of the book cost at future budget planning sessions. She said she didn’t think it was fair for parents to shoulder the entire burden of ever increasing book prices. The increase was approved unanimously as well as a sliding scale for the high school. Previously, high school students were assessed $27 per year to cover book costs. Now the amount will depend on the combination of courses each student takes. It will cost $4 per year per hard cover book. Board members pointed out that such a system will be more equitable, but also will make it more difficult for EQUAL HOUSING OPPORTUNITY v?ea/ Estate Eileen M.

Other fees are included in the total bill, such as the $25 drivers education fee, the cost of gym lockers, etc. School lunches will stay the same price this fall. Superintendant Estabrook reported that the cafeteria was $14,000 in the black at the end of last year and so there is no need to raise the charge. However, Estabrook said that there will be no decrease due to presently rising food costs. Prices will be reviewed at mid-year. The board also accepted the bid from the Morris Coal Company to supply coal for another year. The firm was the only one submitting a sealed bid, and is, in the words of chairman Massie “the only one around.’’The firm bid $90/ton for peerless, the same amount the school system paid for peerless last year. A lower bid of $87.50 was bid for cheaper grade kindle - if available. The board voted to accept the latter. Both prices are “firm”, not subject to change in case of inflation. How to get money was the question behind a matter brought up by newly appointed assistant superintendant Tom Campbell. His cause was safe driving courses for bus drivers. His suggestion was to seek a state grant to pay the drivers for their time while attending a course in defensive driving. He says he just heard about the program over the week-end and brought it before the board, hoping Rappahannock could “get in under the wire” and apply before the grant deadline. The course would be coordinated with help from Steve Camp at the Culpeper DMV office. An hour long course offered by the Virginia highway safety division will be offered for the drivers, “with the strong recommendation that all drivers take it.” This would be made available during their free time and the drivers would be invited to attend on a volunteer basis. Nation At Risk Following last week’s public meeting on the president’s commission on excellence in education and their report “A Nation at Risk”, Estabrook asked the school board to “re-activate the superintendant’s advisory committee to focus particularly on recommendations in (the commission report.)” The advisory group would then compile local comments and recommendations for later review by the school board. Estabrook said he had “no particular quarrel (with the commission’s findings, but doesn’t) feel it goes far enough.” Estabrook expressed suspicion that a thorough study of America’s schools couldn’t be done in 18 months, the length of time the committee appointed by U.S. Education Secretary T. Bell. Estabrook’s other objection is that the report tends to be, in his words, “quantative, rather than qualitative.” The commission suggested longer school years as a possible way of improving American schools, adding additional courses, and requiring more time be spent of basic skills such as science, math, and reading. Estabrook says more time in the classroom doesn’t necessarily mean more will be learned. Said Estabrook, “We can’t do a total turn-around overnight.” However, he shared several basic educational philosophies that he wanted the school board to consider: 1) that there should be frequent and monitored homework. 2) that there should be regular and frequent monitoring of student progress. 3) that there should be a well coordinated curriculum, with no duplication or overlap, but a good connection between various subject areas. 4) that there should be a variety of “teaching strategies”, one of the most effective of which would be strong student involvement. Estabrook said he would bring a list of names of those previously serving on the superintendant’s advisory group so the matter could be discussed again during a meeting set to interview candidates for the assistant principalship at the elementary school. Assistant Principal Search When Tom Campbell was chosen to be assistant superintendant, it left a vacancy at the elementary school. Estabrook says he received seven applications by monday’s deadline, four from men and three from women. Estabrook says none of the applicants is presently employed in the Rappahannock system. Estabrook said the small number of applications is due to the time of the year, when it would be difficult for employed educators to ask to be released from their contracts to make the job change. However, Estabrook said he was “not discouraged by the number.” The school board reviewed the applications in executive session. In a rare event, Estabrook read a thank-you letter from Hubert B. Eckard, Jr., one of the unsuccessful applicants for assistant superintendant. Chairman Massie commented that it was the first time she remembered such a courtesy. Those who were hired, Rappahannock’s new teachers, will start orientation August 16. New teachers will receive two days of orientation now rather than just one as previously. Estabrook says he especially wants to discuss the ideas of testing. “There should be a going-tpgethemess” of education, according to Estabrook, and not a sudden review before exams. Testing should take place at a level of day-to-day instruction, Estabrook says. Another concern is curriculum. Estabrook says he doesn’t believe handing a MOW SMfSWSON A MID-k J STHHH.SM.Jf AND KIT Save $25 to $45 when you buy the 16" OllAV kit the 18"028 Wood Boss kit or the 20"032AVkit 1 hey re the mid-sized saws that handle the big jobs.

Each course should be taught to the group and teachers must be “somewhat flexible” in lesson plans so each group learns at its own level. Estabrook says such topics are rarely brought out at teacher orientation in other systems, and “typically, teachers don’t get that precise training until they get towards a master’s degree. ” During orientation newcomers will each be assigned to an established teacher in a sort of “buddy system” to learn routine procedures. Drug Policy The school board approved changes in the drug policy. One step was to establish an appeals body of administrators other than the school superintendant to hear contested student drug discipline cases. The superintendant then would be the next higher judge and the school board would hear final appeals. A second change would eliminate the necessity for school officials to automatically notify the state police each time a student was found in possession of controlled substances. However, the county sheriffs department would still be informed. The third change was deletion of a section of the policy that Estabrook said was so obvious to him that it should go without saying — that principals are not to try to influence police in any way during drug investigations. Estabrook said that educators would not try to deal with the legal aspects of drugs or “interfere with due process.” New Books In other business, the school board approved two new texts for use starting this fall. Procedures for the Modem Office replaces a 1976 book used in high school typing classes. In line with the “Nation at Risk” recommendations which treat business computers as a new basic, Estabrook suggested it was time to change books in Rappahannock. Grade nine basic math classes will have a new Scott Forsman book. Both new texts were reviewed and reccommended by the teachers involved. The 7:39 p.m. starting time was objected to by Paul Nichols who pledged there would be a more prompt starting time for 7:30 school board meetings while he’s serving. His criticism was well received by citizens in the audience. Rappahannock News l*holo'l> Hutchinson EVERYONE’S FAVORITE CAMPER at 4-H overnight camp last week was Elaina Thornhill.

Inc Member Audit Bureau of Circulation Thursday, August 11, 1983 Silent Encroachments We feel that fine Virginian James Madison would be proud of the responsive manner in which the judiciary of Rappahannock County has sought to solve the problem of central air. A mere three weeks ago we were protesting the pantomimic aspect of the district court proceedings in Rappahannock County. We suggested that the author of the Constitution, James Madison, would object to extraneous noises from the air conditioners that make trials largely unintelligible. We were certain that James Madison would consider that an invasion of the sixth amendment which provides for speedy and public trials. For how can it be public when the public can’t hear? That’s why they call it a hearing. The good judges agreed. Judge Penn complained that it was almost impossible to hold court with air conditioners. And for the sake of the legal legacy from that fine Virginian James Madison, the senior Circuit Court Judge Carlton Penn sent a request to the board of supervisors that something be done about the noisy window units in the upstairs courtroom. It seems that the long-standing sound and fury of summer trials is about to be ended by central air conditioning. The supervisors were unanimous in agreement that the judge had a legitimate complaint. They agreed that the public had a right to be irritated at the poor acoustics. They voted at once to solicit bids for installation of central air conditioning in the courtroom. This is an instance where speaking out has preserved freedom. For as that fine Virginian said in 1788, “There are more istances of the abridgment of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by the violent and sudden usurpation.” Sometimes the silent encroachments aren’t really intended. They only seem to be silent because of the noise from the air conditioners. We’re glad the judges and supervisors were able to raise their voices above the hub bub and be heard. An Auction Would Work By EUGENE McCARTHY A suitable format for testing and comparing the six candidates for the Democratic Presidential nomination seems not to have been worked out at this stage of the campaign. Experts in politics, without giving reasons, say that it is too early for debates, such as those in which Republican candidates participated in advance of the 1980 election. They do not say why it is too early. Meanwhile the candidates have been rushing about the country trying to appear before every group that invites them. The July schedule included an appearance before the National Education Association in Philadelphia, then to Detroit to appear before the annual meeting of LULAC, The League of United Latin American Citizens, then to Aspen, Colorado for a forum sponsored by the Sierra Club and they had not yet reached mid July. On July 10, the candidates were expected, and most appeared, before the National Women’s Caucus in San Antonio, Texas. The following week, it was New Orleans for the meeting with The NAACP, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; then to Detroit for a meeting of the Democratic National Committee. On July 20, the candidates were scheduled to present their credentials to the National Council of Senior Citizens, presided over by Congressman Claude Pepper. Between these appearances, the candidates were scheduled to appear in pairs (whether in a round-robintournament-like arrangement or not has not been publicly indicated) before the House Democratic Caucus. No similar appearance before the Senate Democratic caucus has been scheduled, possibly because it might be difficult to get a quorum to attend unless the candidates were counted. In pre-July skirmishing, the same candidates had appeared before the Georgia Democrats, with Bert Lance as the Master of Ceremonies, and before the Massachusetts Democrats, under the directorship of Senator Kennedy. The candidates also found time to demonstrate their wit at a roast of Moe Udall, who had earlier announced that he would not be a candidate, thus reliev4 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. ing the congestion on the ballot and on the platform and lowering the level of wit that might prevail in the campaign. », Obviously the procedures being followed are unsatisfactory. Dates have not been scheduled so as to allow travel time. No set standards for scoring or rating the candidates have been set and no format for appearances and presentation worked out, as was done in presidential debates of 1980 between President Carter and challenger Reagan although the preliminary agreements did not go so far as to ban the use of pilfered, pinched or pirated briefing papers. The 1980 debate format which worked fairly well for the Republicans even in the pre-convention period, because there were marked differences between the three principal contenders— Ronald Reagan, George Bush and John Anderson— is not as applicable to the Democrats now in their field. Their differences are more subtle, and difficult to debate. Some are highly subjective, differences of intensity, of desire for the office, of loyalty to party, of compassion, of love and attachment to former Democratic presidents and presidential candidates, of compassion, of caring: Or if not qualitative, varying only in quantitative measure. This latter competition might be formalized, and run in the manner of a country auction with the award going to the highest bidder. Thus the bidding for the support of educators could have been continued, and Mondale had opened with a bid of 11 billion dollars, called a fund for “excellence?” Senator Hollings < topped that bid with an offer of 14 billion, including a five thousand dollars a year increase in the salary of every public school teacher. Senator Mondale might want to raise his bid and the other candidates who have not yet bid make their entries. So too the bidding on how to get to the Equal Rights Amendment passed and what each as President would do to advance that end might be re-opened. As of now, Senator Glenn has said he would use the full power of presidential exortation. Senator Mondale has said he would do what is necessary to propose and ratify the amendment. Senator Cranston has said he would lobby and lead and might deny states bridges and transportation aids if they did not pass the E.R.A. amendment. Senator Hart has said that he would go beyond “normal political pressure.” So too, the limited bidding for the support and approval of Jesse Jackson could be continued. Most of the candidates have made the same opening offer, namely, that they see no reason why the United States should not have a black President or more certainly a black vice-president, although no one has yet offered to be the vicepresidential running mate with Jesse. Possibly better than a standard auction would be a basket social, with the candidates bidding on the wrapped and be-ribbonned basket without knowledge of what was in it or which girl had made it and with the highest bidder getting the basket and the girl.

Our Rappahannock Heritage T . —Rappahannock News Pholo/M. May HUI CAT Summer on the kitty — “A fellow just can’t seem to get out of the sun these days — wish it was Christmas.” Letters To The Editor Leadership Has Blurred Vision To the editor: Last week was a sad one for the public schools in Rappahannock. On Monday, John Capelle, executive director of the Planning District Commission, told our supervisors that one of the jobs of the new Job Training Partnership program would be to help some of our high school graduates with their writing so they could fill out their own applications for employment! Once again, someone else has to do the job the public schools are supposed to do. On Wednesday, there was a meeting for a public discussion on the recently issued report of the national commission entitled “A Nation At Risk.” The school superintendent spent the first part of the meeting doing a “hatchet job” on the validity of the report itself and the competence of the distinguished commission which issued it, which include Virginia’s own Margaret' Marston, a highly competent and respected lady. (The superintendent paused repeatedly to deny that he was doing what he was in the very act of doing!) Mr. Estabrook declined to tell us which, if any, of the commission’s recommendations he would urge the school board to adopt in this county. “Premature” and “simplistic” to do so, said he. Further along in the meeting, the chairman of the school board revealed to us that, as far as she is concerned, the gifted and talented program (still, after four years, an utter farce) can be re-buried, along with the standards of quality vhich mandates it. Her vords which did it were: “I >elieve that ALL school children are gifted and tal ented. I don’t believe in labeling children this way.” The chairman then revealed to us also that she had an idea, picked up somewhere, to take care of the situtation should Richmond mandate an extension of the school year from 180 days to 200 or 220, as the national commission recommends. The chairman would insert into the school year threeweek “mini-courses” for everyone to take, contents of same undisclosed. We may safely bet, I think, that they will not be comprised of additional “time on task” with English, math and science, should the board adopt this quaint evasion. As far as I can see, the commission’s report has alread been effectively shelved here before all of the school board members, if any, really know what is in it. And then on Thursday, we read this paper’s editorial entitled “Leading The Way” and concerned with the state board’s approval of stiffer course requirements for graduation. The joy at the editorial desk had little to do (and only as a sort of after thought) with graduating seniors competent enough, at best, to fill out their own applications for employment. Right off, the editor saw in the new curriculum requirements a vehicle to revive a very sick and controversial pet project, ie., as “a step which means finally beginning on a capital outlay program at the high school.” The editor automatically and immediately jumped to the conclusion that SUBSTITUTING” solid academic instruction for the miserable smorgasbord of electives which has been allowed to accummulate and take up teaching time and teaching space— that this SUBSTITUTION has to mean ADDITIONAL teachers and ADDITIONAL space. The number of elective courses a student can submit to make up the 20 or 22 credits now to be required has been reduced so, for God’s sake and that of the children, we are not going to continue to spend 2'/> million dollars each year to teach them, are we? The reasonable solution is clear: determine exactly how much teacher time and classroom space will be required to handle the additional academic courses now required, then cut out an equivalent amount of teacher time and space devoted to "busytime” electives which have no place in a decent school district in the first place. Some different teachers? Maybe. Additional teachers? Forget it! From all of this we must now conclude: —that the present leadership of the public schools in this county is incapable of rescuing our school children from our own “rising tide of mediocrity;” —that these “leaders" become nervous and insecure in any discussion or with any decision involving solid academic instruction; —that these “leaders” can understand only one theory of public instruction, that of the lowest common denominator; —that wherever their hearts may be, their vision is blurred. We should remember the Proverb of Solomon: “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” ROBERT W. EASTHAM Flint Hill Recipes For McCarthy’s Dishes To the editor: Eugene McCarthy offered us quite a lot to chew on with his discussion of why the Carter Administration failed of re-election. It occurred to me that some may not be familiar with all his dishes. After reading Frank Reynolds figments, I see I really do need to submit a few recipes. It was the “date” in mandate that took me to The Joy. To make charisma, first take a bath. Sprinkle with lavender scented powder md brush on hair gel. Fold nto several layers of dressng, the color, style, thickless and texture all selected vith the season and the oc:asion in mind. Spike with a lashing smile, set against itraight white teeth, an assertive carriage and a sonoous voice. Serve charisma is a condiment with cold neats and fowl and all varieies of wild game. Mandate is a fall or winer entree. Well-to-do busiless and professional people re the most essential ingreients. Distinguished forign heads of state should be dded quickly, followed by a iw well planned excursions i friendly shores. Spread ver all this a Congress ominated by your party nd decorate with attracve, able, and articulate apointees - scatter on up to ,000 for best effects. An aura most nearly re( sembles angel cake and whipped cream. Beat until fluffy, exotic, adventuresome and exciting. Add residences in at least two glamorous places and an airplane or a sailing vessel. A handsome family is mixed in next, followed by some special skill - such as singing, equitation or mountain climbing to top it off. Serve at once. Consensus is another main dish to build a meal around - ideal for a festive Sunday brunch. First get votes of approval from the American Legion, the AMA, the National Women’s Political Caucus and the NAACP. Combine these with a friendly, seemingly fresh conviviality. After the mixture has stood for a while, covered in the refrigerator for the flavors to blend, serve in any attractive container - on a silver platter garnished with military flair, in a crystal bowl lined with multi-national corporations or perhaps in your grandmother’s covered limoges dish. In the latter case, place in the center either the League of Women Voters or the Senior Citizens of America. The trimmings are important ingredients for enhancing the dish’s presentation, so don’t neglect them. Some think consensus is better if made a day ahead. ■) Agenda is really a substi tute for what we call hors’ d’oeurves, although some might expect to find a recipe for it in the “leftovers” section of your cookbook. It is most effectively served on a beautiful platter or tray - hot or cold, as the season suggests. Place family welfare at the center and surround with jobs, housing, beefed up education, highway repairs and construction, several new atomic weapons systems, a daring space project, foreign agricultural export contracts and one environmental issue. I recommend saving the whales because it requires action largely by foreign powers and not much work on the part of the administration or Congress. Under no circumstance use acid rain. It spoils the taste, texture and appearance of all the other ingredients. Don’t forget the colored, frilled tooth-picks, small plates and initialed cocktailsized napkins when you serve. Bon appetit, DIANE BIRD Washington FtyOm Both Barrels Deflated GOP Expectations By GEORGE BOWLES This was to have been the year in which Virginia Republicans were expected to storm the battlements of the Democratic dominated General Assembly. Massive increases in the size of the GOP caucus in both houses had been predicted as a prelude to a takeover by the Republicans as the majority party in at least one chamber two years hence. As things are working out, it appears unlikely that the fore-going, or anything close to it, will occur. Going into the 1983 elections, this is the legislative lineup. In the 100-member House of Delegates there are 64 Democrats, 35 Republicans and one independent. In the 40-member Senate there are 32 Democrats and eight Republicans. All 140 seats in both houses will be up for grabs in November. This is the first year in which an entire General Assembly will be elected under the reapportionment plan which was enacted following the tortuous redistricting ordeal of 1981 and 1982. Thus, it is the first year in which all of the legislators will be elected from single-member districts. cut instead ot creating renewed interest in this year’s races, quite the reverse appears to have happened. While there will be, to be sure, a number of hotlv-contested individual elections, both parties seem to be in the grip of a peculiar malaise. Perhaps it is sort of political burnout. How else can one explain why over one-half of the seats in the House and more than a third of those in the Senate are uncontested? In the House of Delegates, 36 Democratic and 18 Republican nominees will coast into office without opposition. In addition, the lone independent, Del. Lacey Putney of Bedford, is unopposed. There are three "open" seats in the House in which no incumbent is running. Two of these are contested, but the third, in Norfolk's 89th District, will go to Democrat Yvonne Miller who has no opponent. She thus appears destined to become the first black woman to serve in the Virginia General Assembly. All told, including incumbents, the Democrats are fielding 81 House candidates and the Republicans 54. There will also be 10 independent candidates including Mr. Putney. Among the Democrats, 18 nominees are women and five are black. Four of the Republican nominees are women. The number of black GOP candidates could not be determined because, according to a party spokesman, the Republicans do not record their candidates' race. There are presently 11 women in the House. Of these, 10 are Democrats and one is a Republican. There are four incumbent black delegates, all of whom are Democrats. On the Senate side, 15 Democratic and two Republican candidates are unopposed. There are; however, five “open” seats which give the GOP its best shot at making significant gains. Indeed, the Republicans can already count one additional senator in their column. Robert E. Russell of Chester is unopposed for the 11th District seat which is being vacated by retiring Democratic Sen. Frederick Gray. In the Senate, including incumbents, there will be 38 Democratic, 23 Republican and three Independent candidates. Of these, two Republicans and two Democrats are women. However, neither Republican Sen. Eva Scott of Amelia nor Democratic Sen. Evelyn Hailey of Norfolk is seeking re-election. Since these are the only two women in the upper house, there will be no incumbent women on this year’s Senatorial ballots. Two black Democrats, both incumbents, will be running for new Senate terms. In view of all this it appears unlikely that the present party alignment in the Assembly will be shifted dramatically after November elections. Still, the Republicans can reasonably expect to make modest gains, especially in the Senate. However, as long as the GOP can come up with candidates for only slightly more than half the seats in both bodies, it would seem the Democrats can look forward to remaining the majority party in the legislature for a good many years to come. Prime Time For Stars “Watching summertime meteor showers is the most civilized kind of star gazing you can do. You don’t need a telescope. The key is comfort. You settle back in a nice lounge chair and point yourself in the direction of the radiant where the meteor shower is coming from,” advises amateur astronomer Ken Ritvo. Ritvo’s suggestions come in handy with one of the most spectacular meteor showers this year, the Perseid, expected on the nights of August 11,12 and 13. The Perseid derives its name from the way the meteors appear to fan out from the constellation Perseus in the northeastern part of the sky. The meteors are actually debris strewn around the orbit of Comet SwiftTuttle which intersects Earth’s orbit every August and is due to return sometime before 1984. The debris lights up the sky with meteor trails as it enters the earth’s atmosphere. In other areas of the world, the Perseid meteors are called *the “Tears of saint Laurence” because nedieval churchmen observed a sky full of shooting stars at the same time each ,'ear as this feast day was :elebrated. The meteors should arrive at a rate of 50 per hour during the three night interval, according to the Virginia Science Museum. However, the best time to view the shower is in the early a. m. of August Id. Ritvo cautions that star gazers shouldn’t expect to see hundreds and hundreds of meteors. “They say as many as 50 per hour but it’s like a weather forecast. No one really knows how many will hit the earth’s atmosphere.” He added that moisture in the air or light in the northeast sky may also diminish visibility. “Just plan on having a pleasant evening watching the stars. Meteorites that come through will be the frosting on the cake.” Correction In last week’s.-article on area thrift shops there was an error in the section on the Washington Thrift Shop. Mrs. Charles Burke operators the thrift shop on Fridays and Mrs. Ruth Clark is found there on Wednesdays, both from 10:00 to 4:00.

Rappahannock County School News Remind Parents Of Immunizations Parents of school age children are reminded that on July 1, 1983, the law concerning school immunization records changed. Children’s school health records now must clearly show that the following immunizations were received: —DPT - three shots —POLIO - three oral or four shots —RED MEASLES (Rubeola) - one shot administered on or after one year of age. (dates - month and year) —GERMAN MEASLES (Rubella) - one shot administered on or after one year of age. (dates - month and year) Acceptable proof is the signature of a doctor or nurse or receipt of other valid immunization records such as baby immunization records. Of 76 R.C.H.S. students notified in writing about deficiencies, only 14 have brought updated records in. “Please bring the immunization information in before the start of school on August 24. Parents who are unclear as to whether their child was notified about immunization deficiencies may call the school at 987-8675 to get clarification,” said principal Robert Chappell. The new law does allow for certain exemptions due to medical or religious reasons. But it also contains an enforcement provision. “Notified students who do not bring in the requested information by August 24 will be given a letter on that day. The letter will prohibit further attendance until proof of immunizations is brought in or until a written statement of scheduled immunizations is brought in from health officials,” Chappell said. College Conducts Cooperative Conference Rappahannock School Superintendent Robert Estabrook spent a day on campus at Lord Fairfax Community College recently in what he called an educational “brainstorming session.” Estabrook says the July 27th conference was one of periodic meetings between college deans and area school superintendents to discuss how to work together to better prepare students for the working world. Estabrook says a prime topic of study is the “impact of high technology” in today’s business world and how high schools and the college can work together “in terms of what students would need.” Participating in the session were school superintendents from a six county area served by Lord Fairfax. The college’s dean of instruction also participated. Estabrook says he feels “awfully good about the attitude the community college brings to the area. They’re willing and eager to work with our students in any way possible.” Some examples of how greater cooperation could benefit local students would be special after-school lectures by college professors during the school year or college sponsored summer sessions in special accelerated subjects. Estabrook says more offerings could be made in the gifted and talented program, foreign languages or technological vacational topics. Castleton Rescue VFD Sponsor Bischoff Memorial CPR A short opening session of the CPR (cardio-pulmonary resuscitation) course will be held at the Castleton fire hall Tuesday from 7-7:30 p.m. Texts donated by Margarita Bischoff will be distributed.

Those who would like to participate in the memorial but are unable to take the courses may contribute to the Castleton Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad. Castleton rescue volunteer James Grigsby will teach the class and Red Cross instructors will give water rescue lessons. Classes will be held August 16, 19, and 20. The test for CPR certification will be given on the 20th along with the water rescue lessons. Pre-registration is requested so sufficient books can be available.

May TALKING SHOP — Newly appointed assistant superintendent Tom Campbell learns the ropes from Robert Estabrook. Campbell says he wanted the job as soon as he heard about the opening and felt good when the board chose him from 25 applicants. Campbell Prepares For New Position Tom Campbell says as soon as he heard that the school board was seeking a new assistant superintendant, he decided to apply for the job. Campbell was assistant principal at the elementary school since November, 1981. Remembering the moment, he says, “I thought it was something I could handle and that it would give me a chance to grow professionally and personally.” Last week, Campbell took a day off from his summer vacation to meet with school superintendant Robert Estabrook and “talk shop.” Campbell says he is “cognizant of responsibilities” but has things to learn about procedures and regulations. He says he’s looking forward to the challenge. Estabrook and the school board sifted through 25 applications before selecting Campbell. He says he “felt very good that the board and superintendent had confidence in me to feel I could handle it. I’m so well pleased.” A resident of Luray, Campbell was assistant principal and athletic director there before becoming assistant principal here. He previously taught social studies in Luray, at Greene County High School, and in North Carolina. Campbell has a masters degree in school administration from the University of Virginia.

Rappahannock Journal •Farm •Business •Garden •Rural Life Return Of The Locust? Ray Cannon captured the creature in his garden and brought him in an artichoke jar to the News. Cannon thought it was the 17year variety. The reporters watched the long-winged locust languishing in his glass room on the following morning and sought to ascertain his story. Regulatory inspector Rusty Wendt at the crop pest control division of the Virginia Agriculture and Consumer Services Department in Warrenton says there are various broods in the Fairfax area this year, but it was more likely that Cannon’s variety was the annual locust. “They look a lot alike,” said Wendt, “But the 17 year does take 17 years to develop.” Fauquier extension agent Chuck Hoysa put it more graphically. “The 17 year spends 17 years as grubs in the ground and when they hatch they come out by millions. You can’t walk around in the woods without seeing them swarm. If that were the 17 year, your phones would be ringing off the hook.” Hoysa explained that there are 75 widely varying species of cicada, commonly called locusts—but so are grasshoppers, which are not cicada. So, Hoysa says, people sometimes tend to confuse their locusts. There’s also such a thing as the cicada-killer, a thumb-size wasp which kills locusts and carries them off to holes in the ground w'here their young feed on the victims. The annual cicada is also known as a harvest fly. The annuals are a cousin to the aphid or leaf-hopper. They are black with green markings and black eyes and about two inches long. (The 17 year locust is coal black with red eyes and are l'/2 inches long.) They gather in the trees during the “dog days” of July and August according to Hoysa and the male makes mating calls by vibrating a membrane near his thorax. “They’re nothing to get exicted about,” says Hoysa. “They’re more of a curiosity than anything else. We have them every year.” Hoysa says annual locusts are not classified as pests except that their noisy “singing” might disturb sleepers during the summer. The females are quiet and lay their eggs in slits in tree twigs. Their young feed on tree juices, but don’t do any great damage to the trees. Hoards of 17 year locusts might make the ends of the tree branches die, but the branches fall off during winter storms and no permanent harm is done, according to Hoysa. The 17 year locusts have an adult span of only about a week. Their life cycles are staggered; one brood will hatch one year, another somewhere else will hatch at a different time. Hoysa says the 17 year locusts was last seen in the Rappahannock / Fauquier - /Page/Madison County area in 1979. He doesn’t expect their return until 1996. Cannon’s locust was thanked for ,the interview and freed outside the welfare office so he could continue his cicada crooning. W&J GROCERY LAST STOP BEFORE OLO RAG MOUNTAIN,^ —Rappahannock News Photo/D Hutchinson THE BURKES, James, Eddy and Wilma, are the new proprietors of the country store in the F.T. Valley. Last Stop Is W & J Grocery The last stop before Old Rag Mountain is still the little country grocery store on Route 231 in the F. T. Valley. But new owners Wilma and James Burke didn’t have to do much in the way of sign painting when they took over. They just painted over the “H” in “H and J” (for Harvey and Jean Gordon, former proprietors) and replaced it with a “W”. The Burkes met Harvey Gordon when he visited their sandwich shop in Front Royal. He mentioned he was thinking about selling his business in Rappahannock. “We came over in the bio snow to take a look at it. It was the only free day we had,” Wilma Burke explained, laughing. The F. T. Valley iced with snow, Old Rag stark against the skyline, has laid claim on many who took one look and decided “This is it!” The Burkes did the same. They took over operation of the store in April, retaining the country cooperation and friendliness that were the Gordons’ hallmarks and at the same time, expanded stock. A huge wheel of Cheddar cheese sits on the counter, flaked by glass barrel of dill pickels and rolls of im ported salami, perfect fare for an impromptu roadside picnic. They’ve enlarged the candy selection at the request of neighborhood kids and now offer large, ice cold sodas and bottled drinks. The Burkes have added tennis shoes, women’s hose, men’s work boots and children’s knee socks to the selection of merchandise and plan to branch out into the old garage bay with even more dry goods. James spends most of his working time at the sandwich shop they’ve managed for years in Front Royal while Wilma has the primarv rv*Qnnn«iHilit\r Spread the Good News — Summer .j^wnsisiiL The Best Prices on Our Finest Paints 10-ft x 25-fL DROP CLOTH 2 mil clear plastic.

It’s proof that C ETA’s youth employment program works!” reported a delighted Camille Harris, one of the satisfied employers in the summer job program. Harris, director of the Child Care and Learning Center, commissioner of revenue Merle Scoggins, the county social services department, the Rappahannock Historical Society and the schools provided supervised employment for 14 young people who met income eligibility requirements to participate in the CETA program. Again this year, the summer youth employment component was administered by Fauquier Community Action under a $225,000 grant. Over 160 youths were served, according to Norma Gibbs, CETA director. Counselor Liz Eastham was the supervisor for the 14 young men and women from Rappahannock. In addition to providing employment for up to 40 hours per week at minimum wage ($3.35 per hour), the program is designed to give participants job seeking skills. The young people take an inventory of their own talents, learn to write resumes and take part in mock job interviews. “We do an employability development plan. It’s essentially a map on how they can obtain their goals—career and educational,” Gibbs explained. “They get four days of training, two days of it with a professional consulting firm,” she added. After two weeks on the job, an evaluation is done on each CETA participant, Eastham noted. “Then we can try to correct any problems.” Again at the end of the summer employment program, a second evaluation is conducted. Those evaluations should show top notch workers, judging by the employers of the CETA kids who tell the story of another summer success. Chris Lillard will join the regular staff this fall'at Sursum Corda after doing part time maintenance work during the school year and fulltime work at the Child Care and Learning Center since June. “If I had the money, I would definitely hire thp girls—Ginnie Hickman md sisters Pat and Ann McKenzie—for after school,” said Harris. “They’re wonderful!” Desiree Poehler is working at the commissioner of revenue’s office for her fourth summer. “She does typing, filing and real estate cards, takes personal property, deals with the public. She can do almost anything,” reported Merle Scoggins. “Beautifully, she’s just doing beautifully,” said office manager Marie Davis of Angela Jordan, the welfare department’s clerical worker. “She does typing and filing, answers the telephone, anything we ask her to. It’s been tremendous having her help because we have a lot of paperwork,” said Davis. “And Angela’s still smiling. That’s sometimes hard to do when you’re buried under a mountain of papers.” And the employees, have they benefited as well? Angela Jordan has “definitely polished her typing and secretarial skills,” Davis said. “And she’s helped us polish ours,” she added, chuckling. Chris Lillard has a permanent job with his summer employer, proof positive that he’s gained job finding and holding skills. Ginnie Hickman says she’s learned a lot about children from working at the Child Care and Learning Center. She’s learned about teaching as well—enough to know positively that she doesn’t want to be one, an opinion shared by co-workers Pat and Ann McKenzie. All three of the young women feel that they’ve learned more about people and life. “And how to be a mom,” the McKenzie sisters chimed in together. They’ve also mastered the tricks involved in writing a good resume and presenting themselves in the most positive light to prospective employers. Desiree Poehler, now a student at Bluefield College, credits her experience in the\ commissioner of revenue’s) office with directing her to-w ward higher education and a business career. “Cindy Dodson is just doing a really fine job,” said RCHS principal Robert Chappel of his summer clerical help. “The quality of her work is excellent. She’s a bright young lady with a fine future in whatever type of office career she chooses to pursue.” Chappel also gave high marks to Norma Gibbs and Liz Eastham. “The supervisory personnel have been extremely cooperative. They’re a pleasure to work with,” he noted. “It’s sad that a money shortage will cut the program short this summer.” That’s the only sour note in Rappahannock’s summer CETA success story. The young people will leave their jobs two weeks early because the money to pay their minimum hourly wage has run out. And this is CETA’s last summer, in Rappahannock and the rest of the country. In October, a new Job Training Partnership program begins. “I don’t know what form it will take but I’m sure there will be some kind of summer jobs program for young people here,” Gibbs concluded. counter none/ ROBERT METCALFE GENERAL CONTRACTOR New Homes Cabins • Additions Remodeling Commercial as well As Residential Box 147 Flint Hill, Va. 703-675-3897 Va.

At least that’s what Shirley Frye Hitt thought and she felt like he was singing it just for her. But then so did Mildred Leake and Josephine Jenkins. They say they had good seats and saw lots of people they knew. They even met a man in Richmond who had been to Twitty City, Tennessee. “That’s where I’d like to go one day,” Shirley says, “I don’t care if he’s there or not.” Of course it would be nicer if Conway Twitty were there cause like we told you last month, Conway Twitty is her hero. She loves him like Chuckie Frye loves Barbara Martin’s chocolate eclair cake, like Aunt Michele loves the way Joe Boucher can cook a turkey on a wood stove. So it’s no surprise that Shirley’s ready to charter a bus if possible to take everyone available to Manassas on August 21 to hear Conway Twitty. She’s seen him about ten times, she says, and even got to talk to him once about 15 years ago back when she first started going to his concerts. She’s got the tickets and she says Bev Settle and Barbara Martin and Donna Gayle will go. Judy Hitt might except the concert’s the same day as the county fire and rescue association annual picnic. The other big fire and rescue date is August 16. That’s when the first Carl Bischoff memorial CPR (cardio-pulmonary resuscitation) class will be held at the Castleton firehall. Folks have until Monday to call volunteers James Grigsby, Mary Frances Fannon, Marjorie Exton, or Diane Bruce to pre-register. Of course, you can also call Pipsy Bischoff. She’s donating the books and helping to sponsor the course so more people in Rappahannock will know how to use lifesaving skills before the rescue squad gets there. The class will meet on August 16, 19, and 20. James Grigsby will be teaching it and we heard in the hills over the weekend that if anyone should be nominated for Castleton’s citizen of the year it should be him for all the things he does to help his neighbors. But for some people, being good just comes naturally. Thirteen-year-old Dorenda Sheads is a good kid When it comes to traveling. Grandma Melzie Woodward says Dorenda has been traveling back and forth to Alaska all by herself for the past three years. She returned from her most recent jaunt with the Juneau jetset last week. The Wood wards’ daughter and son-irilaw, Mr. & Mrs. Clint Conover, had come from Alaska last month for a visit and took Dorenda back with them for a spell. She stayed about a month then came back solo, flying into Dulles without a worry in the world. (Melzie had some other good news. Peggy came home from the hospital Wednesday and she’s “doing real good.”) Waverly and Lillian Frazier had fun with their grandkids, too. The two from Rapidan, Karen and Kim Colvin, and the one from Culpeper, kate Tharpe, stayed with them from Friday ’til Tuesday and they all had a real good time. Judy Hitt’s expected guest Kay Lipscomb had to postpone her trip from Florida from Friday ’til Wednesday. So Judy spent the weekend enjoying the Flint Hill carnival on Saturday and the river at Laurel Mills on Sunday. She took Kevin Lewis, Randy Hitt, Mitch, Kerrie, and Tracy to swim. Sunday Shirley Frye Hitt went to the Sperryville Methodist Church annual picnic at Front Royal at the 4-H center. She says it was good eating and swimming. Among those who went along were Donna Gayle Hitt, Gwen and Margaret and Daniel Bright, Justin Corbin, Dee Jenkins, and Wesley Cooke. Shirley’s the one who spent the past week assuring everyone that there really are only two things that money can’t buy (and that’s true love and homegrown tomatoes.) Everyone sought out Shirley as the resident expert on country music to see if Aunt Michel was telling a tall tale about the tomato song. Tom and Anie Massie said they never heard it. Shirley says it is a “hit”—but she hears it on WMZQ, not Big K. So, who knows what went on during the “Joe Show” last week? Now, wait—would we let a week go by without reporting on a big birthday bash? This one took the cake, a cute little cake with balloons baked at Nature’s Food in honor of Francis Hutchinson. He received a “belly-gram” greeting there and showed himself to be an even better dancer than the messenger. Later, Erwin Lesh and Sam Vanneman were among the Castleton neighbors helping Hutch cut the cake at his house. By then he was into rock-androll from the ’50s instead of that Scheherazade jazz. And he was still winning all the dancing prizes. It just goes to show what Aunt Michele alw'ays says, ‘“Anybody who can dance like Fred Astaire will never be lonely.” So until next wreek, everybody dance— and if not with your feet, at least in your heart.
