May AT ATOKA—Senators Barry Goldwater and John Warner say they suppose Reagan will run again, and Rappahannock County Republican chairman Jesse Pond enjoys a cold cola on a hot day with Frank Moffett, Betty Greer from McLean, and Edith Pond. In background is Seventh District Republican Chairman Champ Clark. Rappahannock Republicans Go Hear Goldwater Rappahannock Republican chairman Jesse Pond kidded that he and Edith were the only ones of about 3,000 who traveled to Atoka in a truck Saturday. But sitting with his straw hat while he tried to stay out of the sweltering sun, Pond was as happy as any of the rest of the state’s Republicans. Among his lo cal political friends at Atoka were Frank Moffett, Hugh Crisman, Charlie Eldred, and Lt. General and Mrs. Hugh M. Exton. Seventh district congressman,!. Kenneth Robinson cancelled his appearance due to ill health, but had intended to lambast the Soviets along with Senators John Warner and Barry Goldwa Arson School Stalled Rappahannock supervisors have tabled a request from Amissville fire chief Paul Poling that he be allowed to attend a statewide fire investigation, school starting October 11. Poling explained that the five week course to be held in Chesterfield County would help him learn how to inspect fire scenes to determine arson cases. The class includes proper investigation procedures as well. Poling called it a “very stringent, rigid course.” Poling said he thought someone from Rappahannock should be sent since the county has six separate fire departments, but has no fire investigator outside the state police. Arson inspector Jim Jessup of Culpeper usually sends someone from the state police to work with department chiefs in case of suspicious fires, but Poling said it would save time having someone local who was trained to conduct the preliminary stages of investigation. Poling suggested that the person who was sent to school would work with the county fire association upon return to teach other volunteers how to preserve evidence at a scene of suspected arson. Upon successful completion of the course, the person sent would be eligible to be granted police powers. The investigator would be required to carry a gun and would have the authority to question suspects or make arrests, Poling explained. Investigators are called whenever there is loss of life or damage in excess of $150,000, Poling said. He added that arson is a serious problem in Rappahannock County. Last year an eight month investigation resulted in four arrests, he noted. Poling is a member of the Association of Arson Investigators and said he is interested in learning more about detection techniques. He offered to volunteer his time if the county would pay $314.45 for registration fee and room during the week. Poling said he would return to Amissville on the weekends and would pay for his own evening meals during the course. Poling said he had checked and found that there was “still a slot open” before he took the request to supervisors last Tuesday. Board members leaned towards the idea of sending a sheriffs deputy to the class so the person would already be trained in interrogation and other detective techniques. Sheriff W. A. Buntin said two of his deputies, John iContinued on Page 2) ter who both serve on the senate foreign relations committee. Robinson had planned to say that he hoped what he calls the “Soviet’s massacre of 269 innocent people” aboard the Korean Airlines; jet would “dispel any illusions about Soviet intentions.” Senator Barry Goldwater nut it a little more bluntly. “They re the worst bunch of bastards we have to put up with,” he told reporters during a press conference inside Warner’s home. Goldwater added that he thought the president handled the situation “in the perfect manner.” Later in his speech and in a partisan manner. Gold(Continued on Page 4) Plans to re-file: MCI Drops Application For Microwave Tower By MICHELE MAY Rappahannock News Staff Writer Following two hours of public comment at the September 7 meeting of Rappahannock’s Board of Zoning Appeals, MCI Telecommunications withdrew its application to place a tower on the top of Bessie Belle Mountain. In a surprise move, MCI withdrew the controversial application with the understanding that the meeting’s record be incorporated into hearings on a future re-application. The maneuver had citizens muttering; but BZA chairman Lee Bird explained after the meeting that he had agreed to the deal in order to offer “full, fair consideration” to the request. “Anything we do is challengeable in court,” Bird stated, “the better the record, the better the opportunity to defend it.” With an October 3 vote deadline in sight, Representatives of MCI approached Bird over the Labor Day weekend seeking to withdraw their application prior to the Wednesday meeting. Bird said. However, since the public hearing had been legally advertised, Bird decided it would be unfair to the number of citizens intending to testify against the request to postpone its consideration. On Wednesday, there was standing room only at the BZA hearing. In addition to considering MCI’s request for a special use permit, the board also had been asked by the planning commission to determine whether the 33 acre site in question is in an agricultural or conservation district. If the area were conservation zoned land, stricter criteria would be in force in considering the special use permit. Before granting any permits, the board would have to consider the land capability, the soil suitability; topography, impact on the environment including (but not limited to) cultural and historical values; protection of natural scenic vistas, watersheds, wildlife and land values; the health and safety of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the proposed site; and whether it would be detrimental to the public welfare. Those considerations are in addition to the usual criteria considered in granting permits. Conservation District On Tuesday the BZA had inspected the site on Bessie Belle Mountain proposed for erection of a long distance telephone signal relay tower to be 200-250 feet tall. Since a conservation district is defined as all land areas haveing slopes in excess of 14 percent, the board was looking at Bessie Belle from a perspective of whether the proposed tower would (in the words of the zoning ordinance) protect the rugged steep terrain from erosion; preserve and utilize the natural scenery associated with such terrain; protect and preserve the forest and wildlife; and protect and preserve water source and quality. Bird called for testimony from surveyor Sonny Deal of Bob Owens & Associates in Harrisonburg, to determine what percentage of the site in question fell below the 14 percent slope cut-off point. Deal said that 1 V*-2 acres of the 311 had a slope of 14 percent or less; the rest of the property was clearly (Continued on Page 2) Power Line Jurisdiction Questioned By MICHELE MAY Rappahannock News Staff Writer Rappahannock supervisors voted at their September 7 meeting to seek state help in settling a question of jurisdiction over power transmission lines. The Rappahannock Homeowners Committee of the Izaak Walton League wanted county officials to ask the State Corporation Commission (SCC) to review Potomac Edison’s proposed transmission line from Luray to Sperryville. According to committee spokesman Mike Massie, the SCC asserts that Pot-Ed’s line is not under its jurisdiction because it is less than 200 kilovolts. Committee member Frank Reynolds, who is staff attorney for the Piedmont Environmental Council, maintains that the SCC does “have jurisdiction if they choose to take it.” Reynolds read a section of state law which gives the commission authority to conduct an investigation and audit of any construction project that involves “uneconomical, inefficient or wasteful practices, procedure, design or Photo Courtesy of Pali Delevitt Allan SURSUM CORDA students and their parents gathered on Sunday with other supporters of the child care and learning center for a picnic to kick off the fall fund drive for the school’s new home. Pictured are Lois Manookian, chairman of the building committee, Steve and Benjamin Lann (left) and Bob and Colin Traenor. Sursum Corda Selects Site The Child Care and Learning Center “Sursum Corda" has signed a contract to buy five acres with frontage on Route 211 near Washington, according to Lois Manookian, building committee chairman. Manookian said that the purchase will depend on a successful perc test and changes in zoning for the land, which is presently part of a larger parcel just west of town. The selection of the building site for the new school is the result of years of searching by the school which faces no future licensing if it remains in the crowded rental property which has housed it for several years. The Center is a full-time day care facility and preschool for children six weeks and up who have not yet reached kindergarten age. Clients from Rappahannock and neighboring counties represent a cross section of the community, with one third of the enrollment receiving scholarship funds. Last Sunday, the building committee kicked off its fall funding ' drive, with good news both on the site selec(Continued on Page 4) planning.” Noting that the SCC maintains this authority applies only to projects of 200 kilovolts or more, Reynolds added “It would seem to be a good thing to ask for an attorney general’s opinion. It would seem to clear the matter up.” The issue is now “out of the private sector,” he said. Reynolds said there appears to be little an individual or citizens’ group can do to oppose the transmission line, which the committee contends is “unnecessary and unwarranted construction which will result in visual pollution and scenic and property damages.” In speaking with area real estate agents, Reynolds said he learned that land values are diminished considerably by unsightly 70 foot power poles and lines. Rappahannock residents have mostly settled here because of the natural scenic beauty, according to Reynolds, a landscape which would be damaged by the proposed new transmission line, the size of which Reynolds questioned the need for during a time when per capita energy consumption has been reduced. The proposed line from Luray to Sperryville would be part of the loop Pot-Ed operates between Front Royal and Gordonsville and through Sperryville. The new line would carry 172.5 KV. The old line has 34.5 KVs. Supervisor Pete Estes pointed out the Pot-Ed argument that the present line is at 80 percent capacity now and that additional lines must be built before power demands reach maximum power production. “If they can prove the need,” Estes said, “then I don’t see any wasteful expenditures.” Estes doubted that the SCC would find otherwise were the commission to hold necessity hearings. Estes abstained from voting, saying he didn’t have enough information and that a representative from the power company should have been included in the discussion. “This doesn’t affect them,” answered H.B. Wood. “We’re just asking.” “At least we’ll know where we stand,” said Clarence Baldwin, who made the motion. What the board will ask is that the SCC review whether it has jurisdiction under present state law even when a power line is less than 200 KV and if the commission determines it does not, to seek an attorney general opinion. At the same time, county officials will meet with Delegate Raymond Guest and ask him to introduce legislation to lower the limit on SCC review powers from 200 KV to 100 KV. The committee presented two draft amendments to the state code which would do that. The bills would be introduced when the General Assembly convenes in January. The committee expects PotEd’s current project through Rappahannock to be covered by any new law. Drought Declaration Supervisors also acted on a letter from extension agent Birgitt Thornhill written after four of the county’s chief agricultural experts met on August 26 to deter(Continued on Page 4) BZA Tackles Long Agenda At Long, Hot Meeting With the MCI application taking two hours of the September 7 Board of Zoning Appeals meeting, it was nearly 6 p.m. by the time members finished a lengthy agenda in a hot meeting room. The temperatures helped motivate members to get on with business. A request from A.K. Davis to build a pole storage building on his land off Route 622 in Harris Hollow had been postponed from last month’s meeting until the board could make an on site inspection. Davis requested the variance to build the agricultural storage shed within a flood plain. Davis had a letter signed by neighbors saying they had no objection to his plans. In a postscript, they added, “Mr. & Mrs. Davis maintain their property beautifully.” BZA Chairman Lee Bird said the inspection convinced the board that Davis owns what he called a “peculiar shaped lot” on Rush River and that a strict application of the zoning ordinance” would unreasonably restrict the use of his land. ” Due to the topography, lot size and shape and undue hardship Davis might otherwise suffer, the board unanimously approved his request. Special Use The board also approved Sidney Mank’s request for a special use permit to use part of the barn on his property on Route 626 between Washington and Rock Mills as a permanent dwelling. Mank had previously received permission to convert the upper level of the barn into a guest house. The approval granted him temporary living quarters; now he wanted the BZA to let him rent the guest house as permanent living quarters for apprentice electrician Larry Sisk and his wife. The two have been living in Madison because they couldn’t find a (Continued on Page 4) Flood Plain Change Considered /toning administrator David Konick says flood plains don’t necessarily flood and that perhaps people should be allowed to build on them. Konick sent a letter to the board of supervisors requesting a change in the current zoning ordinance which requires a minimum 50 foot setback from any river, stream or floodplain. Currently no building, structure or sewage disposal system is allowed within a floodplain or within 50 feet of the floodplain area an shown on the official zoning map. At its September 7 meeting, the BZA granted a conditional permit to Clyde and Lillie Pullen to build in a floodplain on their three acre tract at Old Hollow if they can get a health department permit for a septic system. The Pullens would need proof from a certified engineer that the soil had adequate percolation. Konick maintained that if the land never Hooded in anyone’s memory,” it was unlikely to flood in the near future. He asked the supervisors to consider the hardship on property owners such as the Pullens who are restricted from using land situated in floodplains. He suggested that the ordinance be ammended to allow construction if the landowner could offer testimony from two disinterested persons that (Continued on Page 2)

Microwave Tower (Continued from Pago 1) within a conservation district. A motion by Sharon Luke that the entire tract be considered as conservation land was unanimously approved. -MCI Representatives Representing MCI were land agent Bob McGinnis from Douglasville, Georgia, and civil engineer .Jim Koutris, from Washington. McGinnis explained that his job is to obtain land for the company’s mid-Atlantic long distance telephone service. The line is intended to run from Winchester to Atlanta, according to McGinnis. It may afford long distance telephone service to area residents after the ATT divestiture is completed. The towers must be set every 20 miles and must be on high ground because the system works by “line of sight", McGinnis said. However, he added that the company is having difficulty settling on suitable locations through Virginia because of enterfering frequencies from ATT towers, military' zone signals and broadcast bands in West Virginia. McGinnis explained that a transmitting facility would stand at the foot of the freestanding tower. It would have an auxiliary generator measuring eight by nine feet. The tower area, measuring either HO by HO or 100 by 100 feet, would be enclosed by an eight feet tall barbed wire chain fence, McGinnis added. Bird read McGinnis sections of the zoning ordinance dealing with conservation districts and pointed out that no activity could take place which would adversely affect the peace and tranquility of the “predominent ftappatmnnoch Neuih Rappahannock & Adjoining Counties per year $8.00 Elsewhere in the U S. per year $10.00 I Outside the U S. per year $8.00 plus postage I SUBSCRIPTION RATES BY MAIL 1 ALL PAYABLE IN ADVANCE ( ) New ( ) Renewal ( ) Check Enclose^ NAME__ ADDRESS _ CITY__ STATE_._ ZIP _ Entered as second class mail at the Post Office in Warrenton, Va.

Bird pointed out that the board was ruled by a 60 day time limit to make its decision. The deadline would be October 3 since MCI had filed its application on August 4. In the interest of saving time, Bird suggested the board receive comments from the audience to get their remarks on the record. The MCI representatives agreed to field questions. The first came from BZA member Peter Kramer: what effect would MCI transmissions have on local radio and television reception? McGinnis answered that he was “not expert in the field of electronics” but that he thought MCI’s waves were at a higher frequency. Kramer questioned McGinnis’ credentials. McGinnis responded that he had been with the company two years and that this was the 13th permit he had dealt with. Public Opposition More than a dozen citizens spoke against the proposed construction and at the end of the meeting 21 indicated opposition during a show of hands. That number was 100 percent of the Rappahannock county residents remaining in the room.

Amissville engineer Andrew Roberts explained the “common carrier” band.' over which telecommunications services broadcast as well as news and entertainment satellite networks and amateur “ham” radio operators. This band operates at a frequency ranging from '.{.74.2 GHz tgigahertz). The FCC assigns set. frequencies to commercial broadcast stations to keep their signals from interfering with each other, but has not regulated “C-band” receivers since 1979. Yet, there are opportunities from these receivers to transmit as well, he said. In other parts of the country the satellite dish is used to send listener response or to place orders for people watching talk shows or commercials on their television sets. Roberts believes that such uses of satellite dishes are alternative communication methods that will be commonplace in the future. Satellite dishes are especially important in Rappahannock for people wanting a wide selection of programming on their televisions since the hilly terrain makes it unlikely that cable television will ever come to the area, the engineer noted. Roberts said that some of his clients have interference from similar telecommunications systems in Northern Virginia. Interference is caused by a “spillover ’ effect when transmitters near the same frequency broadcast within a two degree margin outside their assigned frequency, a variation that can occur without being immediately apparent on the monitoring meters inside the transmitter, he explained. Roberts maintained that possible interference from the proposed MCI tower could constitute considerable loss to property owners in the area since their property value would be affected by the investment in satellite equipment. The dishes cost between $2,000-$4,000 installed. Roberts added that “terrestrial interference” can downgrade or altogether eliminate satellite signals. A “supression wall” can be installed at the base of the earth station to filter out the interference, but it would double the cost of the dish. As a ham radio operator is responsible for correcting inteference from his signals, so Roberts suggested the telecommunications companies should be required to install supression walls for residents being bombarded with unwanted broadcast waves. Jesse Pond, president of the local ham radio club, also spoke against the proposed tower as a possible source of interference. The majority of those in attendance spoke against the aesthetic damage such a tower might cause to natural scenic vistas. Howard Holschuh of Castleton said facetiously of “how inspiring” it would be during Easter sunrise services for citizens to climb to the nearby mountain tops to view the FAA required flashing red light at the top of the MCI tower balanced at the top of Bessie Belle Mountain. (Helen Holschuh pointed out that the mountain was actually named Bossie Belle in honor of a cow wh had wandered away du mg the time of the Revolutionary War.) Frank Reynolds, from Washington, pointed out that values would fall if the scenic character of the county was damaged. The lawyer maintained that real estate agents had told him the scenic vistas sell land in Rappahannock. He added that the BZA members should consider the legal precedent they would be setting were they to approve the application. Once MCI is allowed to erect a tower, other telecommunications companies will be entitled to the same considerations, Reynolds said. Further environmental damage could be caused by powerfline maintenance and construction people trekking up and down the old fire road on the side of the mountain, according to the attorney. Reynolds added that he had spoken with MCI’s chief engineer who told him the company doesn’t have its permits in Culpeper yet. The line of transmission depends on the towers being in a row 20 miles apart; if one site is changed, the next is affected. (MCI has requested Culpeper’s planners to table its application there until the end of the month while it investigates possible alternative sites outside of agricultural or forest districts. MCI had proposed to place a tower at the top of Cedar Run Mountain.) Culpeper attorney Roger Morton, representing John Morgan who lives adjacent to Bessie Belle Mountain, said he lives near Cedar Run Mountain. “My turn comes later,” he said. On behalf of his client, Morton asserted that “the aesthtics issue is cut and dry.” Morton urged the BZA to reject the application on the basis of damage to scenic vistas in a conservation district. Opposed to any sort of continuance, Morton said “We came to win or lose and would hope MCI w'ould come in the same position.” The idea of a delay also infuriated Sean Kilpatrick of Woodville. He wondered why MCI had sent tw'o relatively new staff members who were unable or unprepared to answer the technical questions that had arisen. “They and MCI are bound to be aware of typical concerns after 13 applications,” he said. “Why are they not better represented? Why are they not prepared to answer the questions? Why did they send two people who were simply not capable of answering the kinds of questions that will be asked?” BZA member Peter Kramer agreed. “They should be prepared to discuss either regard,” he said. “It’s unfair for the people to have to come back to hear a better prepared presentation.” Kramer’s motion that the board deny any extension and vote immediately met with scattered applause from the audience. The motion was supported'by Sharon Luke, but chairman Bird argued that the board should ave more facts as to the proposal’s possible effects on taxable values. “We need factual data,” he said, “or our finding appears weak.” Bird suggested holding another meeting so real estate agents could testify. “Most of us own property,” Kramer responded, “We are aware of what makes the market tick.” Decision Then up rose James W. Fletcher, life-long Rappahannock resident and attorney for MCI. “We have option to withdraw our application at any time,” he asserted. Fletcher argued that MCI could have withdrawn its application without prejudice at any time before the public hearing, but had agreed to go forward with the hearing because the MCI officials “didn’t want to disappoint the people who came to speak.” The board and the present MCI representatives agreed that the application could be w ithdrawn and that MCI could reapply at a later date when the company would be prepared to make a full public presentation of its plans and to answer technical questions from the public. Testimony received at ^ last week’s meeting will be included in the record and another hearing will be scheduled after the presentation so the public will have the opportunity to respond. The BZA members would subpoena additional expert witnesses as they felt were needed. “What we’ve heard today has not been wasted time by any means,” Bird concluded. In a later interview, Bird said he thought the scenic vista question was “pretty open and shut” but that he would welcome testimony on the loss of taxable value at future hearings, particularly from real estate professionals. Bird said he agreed that some stood in peril of loss of property rights because of air wave interference. He gave the example of the ham radio operator “enjoying the use of air space,” citing the traditional holding that a landowner has control “down to the middle of the earth and up to the highest heaven.” Bird repeated his concern that proper procedures be followed in case of possible future litigation. Many citizens attending the meeting were not pleased by the delay and would ave preferred to see the application rejected outright. But they felt their side would prevail in the end. Said Vincent Day, “I think they (MCI) see the public sentiment was against them.” Flood Plain Change Considered (Continued from rage 1) the land had not flooded in the past 50 years. Sewage disposal systems would be permitted if they consisted of pipelines to pump wastewater from the house to a drainfield located outside of the floodplain area. Konick asserted that floodplains are currently defined by soil types “and not with regard to the lands which actually flood during periods of high water.” He agreed that soil types should affect the location of sewage systems, but not necessarily other buildings. Local resident Sean Kilpatrick, a white river canoeist, told supervisors’ he would oppose such a change from the standpoint of someone who understands the behavior of high water. “I covet flooded streams because that’s when my sport is good,” he said by way of introduction. “A flood can happen at any time,” he said. “Sooner or later, they (the riverj) are going to come out bf their banks and do enormous damage." Kilpatrick gave the example of the flood in Jenkins Hollow four years ago. Arson School (Continued from Page 1) Henry Woodward and Todd Brown, are volunteer firefighters in Castleton and would be logical people- to send if they wanted to go, but that he wouldn’t be able to send them to this course because he will be short one man next month. New deputy John Facchina will be starting nine weeks of police school, beginning October 3. Poling pointed out that if a deputy went, his time would be compensated and he would be reimbursed for all expenses. Supervisor Charles Estes said he would want someone expert in interrogation as the county’s arson investigator and would rather send a deputy. He added that if the fire were af his house, he would rather send for Jim Jessup from the state police. H.B. Wood moved to table the question until the board could find out if a deputy could go and until the board would have time to discuss it further. His motion passed unanimously.

Marshall Followed Complicated Path To Art By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON RMI»h»nnoek New.

There’s Fannie Starks who, three months before she died at 65 of a heart attack, created this poem: I am a grandma. I love to roam through the woods, like a bird. I love to play with children.

And she painted them. There’s Ruth Harrison, pealing fruit into a bowl at 96, looking proud and satisfied. Ruth Harrison whose words gave Marshall’s thesis its title: “I ain’t afraid of dying but I’m not homesick for it.” There’s Allyette Buckner, his visage radiating the same strength and determination that were his father’s before him in the tales Allyette told of confronting the Yankees in the Civil War. A much younger friend, Nan Reddick, a dancer with Marshall in The Last Minute Wood Company, is also in the portrait gallery of familier county faces. The brush strokes catch the strength and beauty, the spirit of this remarkable woman who has found success in a traditionally male profession, carpentry, while at the same time never sacrificing, but rather reinforcing, her feminity. A herd of cows crown together in another of Marshall’s paintings, their sad brown eyes watching the watcher. “I have an affinity for cows,” Marshall explained. “They’re so foolish, big and comforting. And I love milk,” she laughed, explaining the choice of subjects. Painting cows is also “a recreation against the pressure to be pretty,” Marshall added. “I love horses because they’re so graceful and beautiful. I paint cows because they’re not.” Marshall’s collection of oils on wood that will be hung this weekend at Middle St. also includes landscapes of Rappahannock, its skyline at sunset, its mountains dressed in the deep greens of summer. The love she has for the countryside shows in her treatment. “I believe that Rappahannock County is my spot on this earth,” she said. Outrage And Love Marshall’s collages reflect a whole different side of her art. “I don’t know what I’m saying or trying to say,” she acknowledged. “They express my feelings of outrage and my feelings of love.” She believes that the collages are meant to be read as well as seen “with layers of meanings, ghostly images and words that appear and disappear.” She mixes mediums—lighter fluid transferrals from newspapers, color pictures from magazines, her paintings and photographs, xeroxed Vintage Fashions Will Be Sold For Day Camp After the smashing success of last summer’s one week pilot program, the Northern Virginia 4-H Center at Harmony Hollow will open its facilities to Rappahannock youngsters for a summer long cooperative day camp in 1984. According to organizer Pali Delevitt Allan, the camp will run from June 17 through August 8. “It will mean jobs for teenagers and a place for Rappahannock kids to go and do everything—swimming, tennis, canoeing, crafts, hiking,” Allan said. But everything costs money and the summer cooperative day camp carries a price tag of $8,000. To raise money for the youth program, Allan is planning to stage a benefit performance of the musical “Oliver” in conjunction with the Rappahannock Players this spring. Coming up sooner is an antique and vintage clothing fashion show and sale set for October 27. During Allan’s long connection with the theater, she has amassed an extensive collection of costumes that span a period from the 1850s to the 1950s. She will donate everything to the sale, scheduled just in time for the Halloween dress-up search and in plenty of time for holiday shopping. She has women’s dresses and men’s suits, rhinestone decorated gowns and beaded capes, furs (including a full length mink coat), jewelry, hats, shoes and bags. Allan is getting help on oreani/ing the fashion show and sale from Sandra CartwrightBrown, Vi Vierling, Sam O’Connor and Morgan Zale. The group is looking for models and for donations of additional sale items. Anyone interested in volunteering either should contact Pali Allan at OY5-i5412 or Sandra Cartwright-Brown at 9878025. “This is our chance to number one, raise money, and number two, raise consciousness that Rappahannock’s cooperative day camp is going to happen—and happen all summer long,” Allan said.

I’m too scared to find out what ashes mean,” the message on one collage reads, the words of a retarded boy whom Laurie worked with in a counseling program. The images and words in Marshall’s collages are disturbing; and they are arresting, staying with the viewer for days and days, floating up into memory to ask, “What do we mean?” The answer lies in Laurie’s background and beliefs. “I followed a complicated path to art,” she said. “I was raised a Quaker and I was profoundly affected by the idea of God in each of us. Meaning comes from interacting with the God in everybody. That’s what my portraits speak to. “I’ve been involved in teaching and counseling ever since I was 13,” Marshall continued. “That work is very dependant on other to drawing and painting. “I needed to do work that came from within me," she said, touching her heart. “Not work that was dependant on anything or anybody else. Then I discovered 1 could combine it all,” Marshall explained, flashing a broad smile. “Things just evolved. “1 met these people I liked,” she said, remembering her job as a van driver with the senior citizen nutrition site. “1 got involved with them. I involved them with art. And now I have my masters degree in community art.” Marshall makes it all sound so easy hut the master’s thesis, like the journals she has kept for 11 years, didn’t just happen. Her thesis is the result of hours and hours and hours spent thinking, planning, helping, sharing, teaching, writing, drawing and organizing. It’s no dry and scholarly work. In it is the love, concern and respect Laurie felt for the elderly friends she found at the senior citizen nutrition site. “My interest in carrying out this experiment with the older people of Rappahannock County comes from my desire to benefit from thyir insights into aging, coping and maturing—issues for me—and because 1 like spending time with them." she wrote in the introduction. .lust as her career has evolved from developing art programs for older people and mentally handicapped youth to teaching art at the American Museum of Natural History and the Brook lyn Museum in New York to designing and teaching a program for gifted and tal ented youngsters in Rappahannock's public schools, so Marshall’s thesis w ill evolve. She is now working on turning "Making Art with Rural Senior Citizens" into a book. It's the book and her journals that will be given more attention after the Middle St. opening. "And I’m going to breathe again!" she joked. KXAAAAAAATVYYV* She also plans to devote time to painting and drawing but with her new part time position as director for the Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community, she's already wondering where she'll find the extra hours in the week for everything. "I couldn’t do any of this without Rex," Marshall said of her husband, Rex Morgan Slack, also an artist. "Whenever I come across a difficult problem to solve, he always has useful ideas." And he helps with parenting responsibilities for an inquisitive-, bouncy, smiling and energetic toddler, the couple's son, Jeremy. At .'t.'t, Marshall finds that she came late to a career in art. Maybe that’s what makes her perspective a little different. She doesn’t believe that a private Muse is spurring her to creativity. “1 realize that each of us has art in us. Just like each of us has Cod inside. Just like each of us has something unique and important to say."

Mon-Fri Published by Warrenton Printing & Publishing Company Inc Member Audit Bureau of Circulation Thursday, September 15, 1983 Future Floods A deceptively simple proposal before the planning commission carries the ostensible purpose of protecting people from undue hardships that would prevent them from building on their land. Far be it from us to oppose the rights of property owners to do what they like with their land. It is a noble tradition in our commonwealth that the landed gentry be afforded every courtesy. However, zoning ordinances were first conceived to protect the greater public good against the individual private mistake. Building on a floodplain is such a mistake. In built up portions of the nation, civil engineers automatically design drainage ditches to allow for the “hundred year storm”. This is the worst Hood that could be expected to come along on the average of once in a century. This is a lot of water rushing along in a wave of destruction, pushing aside millions of dollars worth of property. And this hundred year storm is the mimimum that drainage pipes are expected to take. Yet zoning administrator David Konick suggests the ordinance be amended to allow Rappahannock residents to build in a floodplain if they can persuade the administrator or the board of zoning appeals that the land has “never flooded in anyone’s memory.” This would be done by presenting the affidavit or testimony “of at least two disinterested persons, that the property has not flooded during the past 50 years.” This seems to place a premium on old-timers who can be summoned to suddenly remember that it has never rained anywhere in Rappahannock. Which is really beside the point. For as Sean Kilpatrick pointed out to the board of supervisors at its September 7 meeting, “A flood can happen at any time. It may not happen in this century but it will happen." Betting that it won’t happen during the next 50 years because it hasn’t happened during the past 50 is sort of like betting on 50 in Vegas. You just don’t know when it will come up. We join Kilpatrick in urging county officials to consider carefully how a flood plain is determined. Jurisdiction Questioned Continued from Pape 1 mine the county’s drought damage. According to Thornhill, there has been a 40-80 percent corn loss this year with additional livestock feeding problems. Stunted corn has high levels of nitrate which leads to possible nitrate poisoning if used for feed. Some farmers are already using winter feeds because there was no second cutting of grass. They suffer additional hardship bv trying to sell the animals in a depressed cattle market. Thornhill added that peaches and other fruit are suffering a 35-40 percent sizing decrease this year. Thornhill asked that the county seek any available drought aid. The board unanimously agreed to send a resolution to the governor’s office asking that Rappahannock be added to the list of counties seeking drought disaster emergency status. However, they made a point of adding the word “horticulture” to the proposed resolution because of the importance of fruit to the local economy. Estes pointed out that horticulture is the second largest industry in Rappahannock County. The drought has created a bigger disaster with fruit than cattle in this county, according to Estes, and different government programs may be available to orchardists than are to farmers. "I think orchardists have really been left out in the cold,” commented Supervisor H.B. Wood, an orchardist in Woodville. He recalled several years ago when he “just let them hit the ground” when similar undersized apples were a glut on the market. According to Estes, National Fruit in Winchester, major purchaser of the county’s crop, will not buy any juice apples this year because of their size. Dental Trailer In other business, supervisors approved an amendment to the zoning ordinance to allow dental trailers. The change, previously approved by the planning commission, will say that “no ordinance shall prohibit” the use of mobile homes for express purposes of medical or dental care. The health department has proposed to park a dental trailer at the elementary school to serve children who currently receive care at the i county health department in Washington. The school board voted in April to allow the use of school property, but operation was postponed until health and zoning officials reached agreement that such a plan could be allowed under the county’s zoning ordinance. The amendment, which passed unanimously, will be added to the section of the zoning ordinance dealing with exemptions for government agencies. Money Matters Since just 2V> percent of the 1982 total tax bill is nowoverdue, supervisors decided not to advertise the names of delinquent taxpayers. Supervisors Wood made a motion not to advertise since the percent is lower than it was last year when the board also decided that it woud not be cost-efficient to advertise. The motion passed unanimously. A transfer of funds from the school system to the county treasurer was intended to comply with a new state law. Superintendent Robert Estabrook explained that cafeteria and text book accounts now need to be in the custody of the county treasurer and a vote was needed from the board,to place the money under county control. Estabrook added that there should be no shortfall in the funds; that the cafeteria, with a fund balance of $13,785.69, should continue to be self-sustaining. The high school has a text account of $31,270.65. The account at the elementary school comes to $32,989.06. Audience member Robert Eastham pointed out that warrants will now be necessary to transfer any of the money from the treasurer’s office, an observation with which no one disagreed. An appropriation to make up for what was described as a budget oversight granted $4,000 to the commissioner of revenue to pay land use program personnel. Those people are not covered by the board of compensation which pays the rest of the office staff. Supervisors had made the same oversight in approving the budget the year before and voted unanimously to appropriate the money. Centra! Air Supervisors were also asked to clarify what sort of specifications they wanted when they voted to advertise for central air conditioning in the courtroom. Clerk Diane Bruce reported that she has found a Front Royal consultant to draw up bid specifications, but it wasn’t clear whether to advertise to cool just the upstairs or to receive bids on the courtroom with the possibility of adding the downstairs later. Supervisors agreed that they only had the upstairs in mind. Supervisor Wood amended the motion to include bids on ceiling fans despite protests from several other board members that ceiling fans would just not “do the job” and that fans might continue the problem in the present system — excessive noise in the court room. But they went along with Wood’s observation that “it doesn’t cost anything to find out.” Jail Report Architect Hunter Spencer reported on progress with the jail construction. Spencer had been asked to make a comparison study on the asphalt bid. He returned with the news that he had checked bids on the parking lot at the new Precious Blood Church in Culpeper and found that the parking lot here had cost less. While part of the higher price in Culpeper reflected considerable grading work that was done, Spencer said the asphalt price Rappahannock received compared favorably and he recommended payment. Otherwise, Spencer said the project was "coming along very well” but that contractors were waiting for door frames, hardware, and electronic locks. “I feel he’s doing an excellent job,” Spencer said of the contractor. “He’s had lots of problems but I feel like he’s giving us a good job.” Spencer said he expected everything to be finished by October. Supervisor Estes moved to table another building matter that the board felt needed more thought and study. * * * Popcorn is an American Indian invention. '-Our Rappahannock Heritage-I Letters To The Editor The Cheapest Only For MCI To the editor: It has been suggested that it is in our economic interest, here in Rappahannock County to keep it unspoiled. Those of us to whom the unmarred beauty of our land has been such an important, attraction, should defend those natural charms against encroachment. In this instance, the county’s loveliest small mountian has a new attacker. If you have not seen pictures of this adversary, I suggest you find some and examine them. This aggressor is 250 feet tall: it is a metal structure “decorated" by a large saucer-like ornaments; topped by two flashing red rotating lights to make it as conspicuous by night as does thessun’s reflection on the metal by day. The advantages of this tower to our county will be nil, according to its proposer, MCI. It will provide a relay from Cedar Mountain in Culpeper County to Blue Mountain in Fauquier. The disadvantages, in addition to the esthestic devastation, include definite on-line interference with TV reception and additional interference within two decrees of each side to satellite receivers. The economic impact may be immeasurable. In addition to the “adversary.” the tower, there will be constructed a power line, a road and a corrugated building, the design of which is absolutely unacceptable by any standard. There are alternatives for MCI. It can use “Ma” Hell’s existing corridors; it may use satellites for relays; it may run lines paralleling existing railroad lines or it may use another route. The proposed route via beautiful Bessie Bell Mountain top is the cheapest - for MCI. It is the most costly to those who have bought or sold views in this area, to lifetime residents and to the inheritors of our county’s beauty and rural quality. MITZIE YOUNG, Realtor Intrusion Of Privacy To the editor: I believe it was Tuesday, August 30, 1 was driving home from my seven-day-aweek job where one-third of what I earn goes to federal and state taxes. I drove by our understaffed and overcrowded high school, by under-nourished people without proper health care, onto the final stretch of my 100-mile-a-day journey, the washboard road which has remained virtually unchanged for 100 years. I accept all of this as “life in the country,” that is. until I drove up my mile-lone driveway to find a helicopter circling my house in search of marijuana. Where were they during the big snow when I ran out of beer? As a professional pilot, I’m aware that helicopters are costly to operate. I wonder how much better off our county will be with 200 less marijuana plants. I think the money might be better spent in front of local drinking establishments giving breathalizer tests, in that there have been many more alcohol-related accidents in our county as compared to accidents resulting from marijuana being grown here. Also, helicopters have a rather limited glide ratio when their engines quit. Should this occur with one hovering over our 58 wooded acres and the surrounding properties, our yard would be the only suitable crash-landing site. This is in direct violation of federal aviation regulation 91.79 paragraph a, prohibiting flight below an altitude whereby if a powerplant fails, an emergency landing can be made without undue hazard to persons or property on the surface. It’s an honor to be considered a suspect, but when it comes to growing things, I have terrible luck, what with drought and deer. However, I also consider this search of my property to be an intrusion of my privacy and a violation of my rights as a U.S. citizen. JOHN LeKANDER Sperryville Sursum Corda Site Selected (Continued from Page 1) tion and the support of the Rappahannock community, which has contributed $33,000 since the spring campaign began in April. Fundraisers gathered at Manookian’s home in Flint Hill for a picnic September 11 were charged with raising another $17,000 in small donations from local families and businesses. Those pledging amounts to the building campaign will be able to do so by installment, Manookian said. “No amount is too small,” she added, noting that all contributions are tax deductible. The building selected by the school is a design by Orange architect Angus MacDonald who has gained national recognition for his earth-berm, solar-heated, low maintenance structures. The slope and direction of the selected site make it ideal for this type of building, Manookian said. “We're hoping to stress the benefits of good day care to all members of the community,” Manookian said. “Sursum Corda has become a vital part of the Rappahannock Community, with truly broad-based support and participation. Our building fund campaign gives the community a chance to become part of Sursum Corda.” Long, Hot Meeting (Continued from Page 1) place to rent in Rappahannock. A request from E.J. Welch to build a second single family dwelling on his tract near Flint Hill was approved almost automatically because it would be the only house on one of the lots wrhieh makes up the tract. Zoning administrator David Konick pointed out that such requests should no longer come to the BZA if the new zoning ordinance is approved. It defines lots and tracts more specifically and allows housing according to density. Under the new ordinance there could be one house per 50 acres without special use pemits. There could be two houses on pieces of land greater than 50 acres and three houses on ones greater than 100 acres, according to Konick. Robinson Back Timothy D. Robinson returned to the BZA with Warrenton lawyer H. Ben Jones to continue discussion concerning his property on Route 659 near Flint Hill. Last month Robinson received permission to add an apartment at the back of the building. At Wednesday’s meeting, he requested consideration of a variance to renovate an old loading dock on the front of the building which would not be within required set back limits from the road when completed. Robinson’s asked to be allowed to restore the building to its original condition since it now flooded during rain. Robinson had a letter from his neighbor withdrawing objections that had been read into the record at the August 8 meeting.'Robinson said the objection had occurred because of a misunderstanding about w'hat his plans were. He added that he had reassured his neighbors that he would not be running a woodworking business in the house and that he understood the area is not zoned commercial. Robinson said he was not in the business of restoring old log cabins and had turned over his woodworking tools to a business part ner. “Your partner can’t have a shop there either or it must be rezoned,” warned board member Peter Kramer. Robinson’s lawyer Ben Jones assured the board, “I have counseled him that he does not play games with the zoning ordinance.” Kramer replied that he just wanted to be sure “this is not some great maneuver in a home business scheme.” He then moved for approval of the variance. The board voted unanimously to grant it. Co-Op Remodeling The board also approved a special use permit for Witold and Dorothy Kuncewicz to remodel a warehouse behind the old co-op building in Sperryville to use for cold storage of fruits and vegetables. The area is zoned industrial. Kuncewicz told the board the necessary parking and loading space exists now and that he plans to have 6-15 employees working there. He will add insulation to the building and install cooling equipment. Kuncewicz assured the board there would be no waste products, noise, odor, smoke, dust or other pollutants listed in the zoning ordinance. With a motion from George Muth the permit was approved unanimously. The board gave conditio nal approval to Clyde and Lillie Pullen to build a single family dwelling in a floodplain in Old Hollow near Sperryville. The Pullens must have a certified engineer test the soil percolation and get approval from the health department for the septic tank system. Konick told the board that the entire lot is within a floodplain and has floodplain soil according to the maps, but that no one remembers there ever being a flood there. “The church has been there for several hundred years,” he said, “And it’s still there.” The board agreed that if the Pullens could prove that the land was unlikely to flood they could build there. Second Dwellings Controversy surrounded a request from Jack Atkins of Amissville for a special use permit to build a second single family dwelling on his 78 acre tract on Route 211. Konick and the board had each received anonymous letters opposing the permit. “Nice to know you have a few enemies,” Atkins remarked. Bird pointed out that the board could not consider unsigned letters in making its decision. Atkins’ tract had been split by contruction of Route 211 and he wanted to build a second house on the opposite side of the road from his present home. Board member Peter Kramer said he would like to make an inspection of the site before voting because the area “is a scenic vista and there is sentiment against building in the area.” Kramer added, “structures and . density have a great impact on this area.” Konick argued it w'ould be “a bad precedent to say a house hurts the view. It’s not like a 250 foot tower. You didn’t ask anyone else who came here today if the neighbors didn’t like the view of their houses. I just think it’s a bad precedent to say that somebody who drives by might say, ‘Golly! That sure would be a nice view if it wasn’t for that nouse: Bird noted that the building could not conflict with the predominent character of the neighborhood. The board decided 3-1 that the request met all the other requirements and should be granted. Sharon Luke abstained saying that Atkins was a client of her law firm and she felt voting on the question could be a possible conflict of interest. Kramer opposed the motion saying he wanted an inspection. “I’m not necessarily in opposition to the house,” he explained after the vote. “I just don’t know without looking.” Robert and Dorothy Settle applied for a special use permit to build a second single family dwelling on their 54.34 tract near Amissville on Route 642 and to use a temporary mobile home during the construction. The board had no problems with the application. Settle had obtained a permit for the septic system and said construction could probably be completed within a year. Both requests were approved unanimously. However, during the course of the appeal, Konick continued to quiz Kramer as to whether he thought the Settle home might interfere with the “scenic vista” along Route 642. With the hot weather, tempers were short and Kramer offered Konick a public “reprimand for making fun of my concern for the county’s scenic vistas.” Bird told the two their remarks were out of order. Finally the end of the meeting was in sight with a final request from M.L. McBride, Front Royal, representing Centel Telephone Company. McBride had been told at the August BZA meeting that Centel could leave its concrete pad in place near the comer of Routes 522 and 729 if the company could provide letters from an engineer saying the pad could be moved if necessary and from the highway department saying it would not constitute a visual obstruction if used for a community service equipment cabinet. The reason for the first letter stemmed from the continuing “when is a structure a building?” discussion during which the BZA approved a service cabinet for C&P but rejected a similar one for Centel. Bird had told Centel the decision could be reversed if the company offered the letters showing the cases to be the same. Centel’s engineer said the concrete pad had a “theoretical weight” of 9.5 tons and could easily be moved if necessary with a small crane. Since the pad could be moved, the BZA would not define it as a structure. Thus, the company would not need a varience, but only a special use permit. But then Konick questioned whether the board could reverse itself without advertising the case for additional public hearing. Bird told McBride he would have to reapply and have the case reconsidered in public hearing. McBride replied that he had come to Washington to re-apply on the day following the August meeting and was told by Konick that it was not necessary. Konick had said that he understood the board had told him then that it would not be necessary to reapply. Why hadn’t Konick advised advertising then? “I just thought of it,” he told the board. Bird apologized to McBride for having to wait through the afternoon saying he was “sorry we misled you. I guess you should reapply.” The cases of two residents who were not present at the meeting were then considered. The board had inspected the Donald Porter property near Pine Knot off Route 211 the day before. They agreed that he should be granted a variance to build a single family dwelling at least 50 feet from his rear property line and as centrally located as possible. Bird said the topography could be considered an undue hardship because of its slope. The variance was approved unanimously with Peter Kramer abstaining because he was not present for the inspection. The board delayed any decision on a request from Dale M. Davis of Amissville until he could meet with them to discuss his application. Davis requested a variance to build a carport within three feet of his property line near Route 645. Davis had sent a letter explaining that he wanted to attach the carport to the entrance of his home. However, the board members decided to invite him to their October 12 meeting to see if it would pose a hardship on him to build the carport on another portion of the property. Having set the next session for 9 a.m., October 12, the sweltering members adjourned at 5:40 p.m. Rappahannock Republicans (Continued from Page 1) water traced international strains through past democratic administrations, saying that if Kennedy and Johnson (whom he called “disinterested civilians”) had stayed out of foreign affairs, “Viet Nam would be a swamp today.” Goldwater kidded about the weather, saying he came from the Arizona deserts 1,000 miles away where it was 112 degrees, but it was cooler there than Atoka. It was 98 degrees at Atoka Saturday, hazy and humid. Otherwise, Goldw'ater had praise for Virginia, remembering his stay 60 years ago at Staunton Military Academy in the Shenandoah Valley. “Keep it this way,” he urged Virginia’s republicans. “Keep the people out of here who want to build condominiums. You can’t prevent growth, but you can control it. Always keep your hills green and your streams flowing, so those of us who love our country have a place to go.” Then Goldwater announced that he had to be in Maryland in ten minutes and flew away in his private plane. The festivities continued with Warner personally auctioning off a cigar box that had been in his office on Capitol Hill for the past five years. The cigar box, he said, was a symbol of Virginia’s important tobacco industry. The senator offered to buy it back for himself for $100, but then he ended by selling it for $500. Jesse Pond said that he would just as soon have given it back to Warner if he had bought it, but he was busy with his chicken at that point and wasn’t bidding. The Republicans consumed 1,750 chickens, 3,500 ears of corn (from Pennsylvania because of Virginia’s drought), 300 dozen biscuits, and 115 sheet cakes. It was the seventh success for Woodstock’s famous “caterer extraordinaire” chef George Shaffer.

Rappanannoclc Journal •Farm •Business •Garden •Rural Life Make It Fancy For An End-Of-Summer Picnic By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock News Staff Writer Fried chicken and ham biscuits will fill the bill for most picnics but affecionados of outdoor dining who want to celebrate with a summer-ending picnic might want to be a little more extravagant — and adventuresome. The very best picnic I ever sampled was a tailgate spread served at the Ben Venue point-to-point, a potluck affair that a group of friends concocted. The menu featured cream puffs stuffed with crab meat, asparagus vinaigrette, meat loaf in pastry, stuffed mushrooms, fruit salad, dill bread, garlic-herb cream cheese and three or four desserts along with wine and cheese. You can use your favorite cream puff recipe. Mine is from a little booklet printed years ago, “How to Enjoy Virginia Eggs in the Old Dominion Tradition.” Cream Puffs . 1 cup water Vz cup butter 1 cup all-purpose flour 'A teaspoon salt 4 eggs lA cup parmesan cheese. Bring water and butter to a rolling boil in a saucepan. Add flour and salt, stirring virgorously over low heat until mixture forms a ball. Remove from heat. Beat in eggs all at once; continue beating until smooth. Beat in cheese. Drop dough by tablespoons onto lightly greased baking sheets. Bake in a pre-heated 400 degree oven 18 to 20 minutes or until light golden brown. Pierce with sharp tip of a knife and return to oven 5 minutes to dry out insides of cream puffs. Cool on wire racks; cut off tops. After cream puff shells are cool, stuff with crab meat moistened with mayonnaise, mixed with chopped onion, capers, salt, pepper and mustard to taste, and perhaps some Worcestershire sauce or garlic. This was a springtime tailgate when asparagus was in season. At Labor Day, fresh asparagus are rare and, if you can find them, as dear as diamonds. You can substitute an in-season vegetable, say green beans. Parboil the beans until tender, rinse until cool, drain and drop into the following vinagrette dressing. Top with thinly sliced purple onion rings and chill. Vinaigrette Dressing Mix together: V2 teaspoon finely chopped garlic 1 teaspoon salt */2 teaspoon pepper V2 teaspoon dry mustard 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 2 tablespoons pure olive oil 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice 2 tablespoons tarragon or wine vinegar 4 tablespoons vegetable oil Speaking of in-season vegetables, it’s the time of year when eggplant vines swing into mass production. Now, I can eat eggplant anyway it’s cooked—dipped in batter and fried, sauted in olive oil, layered in casseroles with tomatoes, cheese or meat, even raw with a little salt. But not the rest of my family.

My latest ef fort is Chinese Eggplant. It does well served at room temperature so it’s fine for picnics—but remember, it’s spicey. Chinese Eggplant 3 small or 2 medium eggplants (about 2 pounds), unpeeled and chopped into cubes. 1 teaspoon salt. 1 medium sized onion, cut diagonally into thin strips. 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely diced.

Let stand 30 minutes. Rinse off salt, drain and spread eggplant to dry on paper towels. Set aside.

Memorial Established For Ranee Spellman At a celebration held Sunday, September 4. Patricia Saltonstall announced the establishment of a living memorial to the late Ranee Lee Spellman, manager of Saltonstall’s Points of View Farm who died last November. The new memorial will annually recognize, honor and reward Rappahannock County youth for their mastery of one or more of a long list of skills essential to farming. Saltonstall described farming skills as “a vanishing national asset" as necessary to the effort to preserve farmland and agriculture as are land use assessment programs, purchase of development rights and various other strategies being tried across the nation. The impressive and complex skills of her Mdyear-old farm manager w ere unknown to the average American city dweller or suburbanite, Saltonstall said. Or at least those skills were among the least recognized and most undervalued, she told the more than 200 guests assembled at Points of View for the memorial celebration. Yet the skills necessary for farming are among the toughest to master, Saltonstall said. “Kids usually learn these skills at a father’s elbow, not in a school or college classroom. These skills are demanding, often dnagerous, requiring quick reflexes, cool judgement, stamina and innovation." But as often as not, she continued, rural newspapers ignore these significant skills and recognize instead the non-farm achievements of local young people, from sports to the arts and other white collar activities. The Spellman Memorial will seek to fill that void, according to Saltsonstall. “We will first do an assessment of Rappahannock's agricultural skills needs and skill gaps, as seen by local farmers and farm sup pliers," she explained. “Second, we will try to see how many local youth intend or prefer to enter farming, or how many already are farm ing and really need help. Third, we will try to discover if its is possible- and if so, then how—to attract high school youth to choose farming or farm support services over other careers." A memorial board to include area farmers and farm suppliers is being planned. Among those assisting Sal tonstall are Sue Rucker, Delaplane Angus breeder; Anne Allen, program officer of a national philanthropic foundation, and William I)ietel, Rappahannock resident and executive of a national philanthropic foundation. Saltonstal! hopes to have the memorial established in time to present awards next fall.

News From Castleton By MICHELE MAY Rappahannock News Correspondent 937-4031 Ruth Kilby will be at the Castleton fire hall tomorrow to register folks to vote. If you’re not registered yet, get over there! All you need to tell her is your social security number. Ruth hopes to have 3,000 registered voters in Rappahannock County ready for the November 8th election. She says only half the people eligible to vote are registered. You know who the candidates are. You can’t help your favorites if you’re not registered. Rain. That’s something else that would help. It may have been oil lamp and flashlight time in Castleton Monday night, but as Judy Hitt said, “We need more rain and less lightning.” It was beautiful weather Saturday for the church picnic at Stevens City. Lillian Frazier says she and Waverlv took their little granddaughter Shannon Tharpe along. Ellen Horton from Culpeper joined them for Sunday dinner. Shannon’s baby sister Tonya stayed over on Saturday night. (And we spelled her name wrong before and apologize because your name is the only thing that really belongs to you. Seeing it misspelled is worse than finding a dent in your fender.) J. T. and Melzie Woodward had theirs gathered around for Sunday dinner: Ashby Family Reunion Planned The Ashby family reunion will be held Sunday, Oct. 2, from 1 until 5 p.m. at the Ruritan Building in Marshall.

Carol and Homer Henry were at home enjoying their tennis courts last weekend. Over Labor Day they went to West Virginia to see Carol’s parents. And Judy Hitt says the most fun she and Mitch had lately was the estate auction in Boston Saturday morning. They bought a tin woodstove and a recliner and some canned goods on purpose, but were real careful not to buy anything by mistake. You know how it is at those auctions. Aunt Michele almost got a prize pig at the Farm Show cause she used a few too many gestures while talking with the Culpeper extension agent. We heard that Mr. and Mrs. Ben Mallory have bought a house at Chester Gap and will be leaving Castleton for those north hills. They’ll be leaving some of their grown children at the old homestead, though, so we'll still see the family around these parts. Lots of our neighbors were at the BZA meeting last week trying to tell how they would feel about having a view of an MCI tower out their front windows. Howard Holschuh had a few pretty good descriptive phrases about flashing red lights nestled high in the hills around Castleton and Stevan Nikolajevic asked some solid questions. More meetings on that matter will probably be coming up soon. Kathy Knighting had her birthday dinner Friday night with Mitch and Judy. Ma says, “That’s the 20th birthday cake I’ve baked her.” Then Kathy had another birthday party Sunday with the in-laws, Martha and Roy Lee threw a little party and Debbie was there, too. Tommy Schoppet’s 12th birthday w’ent equally well. Nancy says, “It was wonderful; the kids were all well-behaved.” The ten of them played kickball for a while after the trip to Culpeper for pizza. When Richard arrived with the film, the private showing started. Tommy had narrowed the selection down to three mov ics and the winner was, “FIRST BLOOD”—everyone loved the flick. The Schoppets and guests thought the suspense was great. Tommy loved his gifts. He received lots of nice little ugly monsters for his birthday. Nancy can’t understand all the appeal the young people these days have for such strange beasts, but after all, Tommy was one of the kids in the summer G&T program who were painting the people eaters purple and designing monster T-shirts, monster wanted posters, and sculpting creatures from the flora from around the elementary school. Most of the aliens were really quite loveable. And after all, as Aunt Michele (and quite a few other folks) always say, “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” Why, she thinks that ugly ornery cat of hers is the most gorgeous animal in the world. And didn’t she just tell Joe Boucher the other day that he was more handsome than Conway Twitt.v? Kind of gives you something to think about.

Conversely, summer makes great demands on blood supplies because of heavy automobile traffic and a consequent increase in road accidents which frequently require blood transfusions in emergency treatments. This summer has given the Fauquier/Rappahinnock Chapter particular difficulty. In past years, a midsummer bloodmobile at the Armory has always been one of the most productive toward meeting the annual quota. But the bloodmobile at the Armory in July had to be closed down early because of intense heat. Against a goal of 100 units (pints) for that blood drive, only 70 units were collected. To meet its goal of 1,450 units by next June 30, the < chapter up to this point should have collected 180 units. It has collected 123, just two-thirds of the amount needed. A blood donor may be anyone between the ages of 17 and 65 who has not donated blood for two months and has not had any injections, including penicillin, in the past two weeks.

Rappahannock County School News New Faces RCHS secretary Linda Gray, says “I’m adapting : well because I went to I school here” (class of 76). Gray was last seen working in the bookkeeping department of the Rappahannock National Bank. “A sort of a promotion” is what new RCES secretary Martha Kidwell calls her job. A 1967 RCHS grad, she’s been working for the school system for six years, most recently as special services secretary at the school board office. So far her new position has been pleasant, “I like it,” she says, “I’ve been busy.” Happy Birthday, Spectra! The Spectra School is just one year old this month. (That acronym stands for Space to Experience Creation through Architecture.) The school was founded on a 65 acre farm in Flint Hill with the intention of teaching architectural principles through group projects.

Students stay for a day or a week depending on course offerings; the most recent session ran from August 19-21. By September of next year. Chandler hopes to have expanded into a full semester. Internships and independent study programs are available this fall. SPECTRA students ' don’t necessarily need architectural ambitions. Chandler says the program is meant to offer the individual space to realize his or her potential and find ways to contribute to self and to society.

They held four open houses with 200 participants. They received donations from the community in equipment, materials and money. They taught 70 students in the various sessions. They contacted area civic groups to teach the public more about their program and contacted architectural schools across the country to let others know of SPECTRA’S existence. They lent the facilities to two local art teachers for spring and summer field work. On a more legal front, they obtained a special use permit. They assembled a nationally recognized Board of Advisors. They obtained tax-exempt status. They developed a fee schedule and various contractual arrangements to allow as many students as possible to participate. They have applied to a private foundation for a $10,000 grant. The next course at SPECTRA will be offered September 23-25.

Last year’s Follies, the first effort of its kind by the newly organized RCHS Booster Club, raised $1,000 which was spent directly on laboratory equipment for the science classes. It is the hope of the Boosters to again raise that amount to be spent directly on teaching aids for the high school students, specifically this year on additional computer equipment. At present the high school has six computers and there are always lines of students waiting to gain access when free time allows. Since there is no scheduled class in basic computers as yet, only those 12th graders taking trigonometry have an opportunity for formal instruction in computing as part of this class. Limited equipment keeps actual experience with using the computers to a minimum. Students in grades 8 through 11 who are interested in computing swarm to Don Bomberger’s computer room before and after school or during lunch or study hall in hopes of getting to one of the computers and perhaps finding Mr. Bomberger with some free time to instruct them. The Booster Club was overjoyed by last year’s patron support ($10 each) from Rappahannock businesses and individuals which made the Follies such a grand success. The club hopes that the community will again respond to the patron campaign which will be underway soon. In addition, help is needed to provide lunch and dinner for the nearly HO performers, to assist with the production and to provide support for this cultural effort through ticket sales. Anyone wanting to attend or to help should call Dawn Fisher, Follies chairman, or any booster cluh member. Students interested in signing up for this unusual workshop will soon find reg istration forms at the high school. *+** “The opinion and advice of my friends I receive at all times as a proof of their friendship and am thankful when they are offered.”— George Washington (1780) **** County Library Needs Volunteers Volunteers with the time, energy and inclination to serve one of the county’s cultural organizations are needed by the Rappahannock Library. “We need volunteers to chair and serve as members on* our various committed for programs, publicity, building improvement, building and grounds, volunteers, book reviews and more,” said E.

Ronnie Atkins was fift^, 15:20, Chris Caperton seventh in 15:45 and Craig Kenyon ninth in 16:10. Finishing just outside the top ten were Elwood Dodson, 11th in 16:14, and Ricky Shaw, 14th in 16:44.

There was a big gap,” said coach Ann Spieker. “Now the pack has moved up right on the heels of our top two runners. We had Chris, Craig, Elwood and Ricky all close. Usually, David Dodson is up there too but he had problems with the heat in Thursday’s race and finished way back.” The coach singled out Caperton for special praise. “When he ran by me at the bottom of the mountain, he said, “I’m going to get ’um up that mountain!’ and by the tone of his voice, he meant it. And he did it! He started picking off the other runners at the stretch. Passed the Warren runner in the number seven spot just a few yards before the finish. He surprised me the most. “But they all did so well,” Spieker continued. “All the Rappahannock runners ran so close in time. The coach was also impressed with the performances turned in by freshmen John Dodson and David Fishbein. “They did real well staying up with the big guys,” she said, pointing to Dodson’s time of 17:5(5 for 23rd and Fishbein’s 18:11 for 25th. With 51 runners completing the course, both finished in the top half. Rappahannock’s Karen Ludwick, the only Lady Panther running on Thursday, covered the 2.7 miles in 20:50, second out of ten girls competing in the quad-meet. Also finishing the race for RCHS were Jonathon Watson (18:41), David Dod-' son (19:01), Marc Streagle (20:47) and John Ranev (21:08). The final tallies were Rappahannock 34, Warren 47, Luray 56 and Clarke 136. Despite the high temperature and humidity, there were no problems with heat exhaustion from the race. One potential confrontation was avoided, however, when spectators cleared the course of cattle that wrere milling around the finish line before the runners approached.

Although Rappahannock’s Panthers controlled the opening tip, they failed to capitalize on their first possession. Page drew first blood in a contest that "Was one-sided from the starting buzzer. It was not until well into the first quarter that Rappahannock finally flashed onto the score board with two from Connie Compton. But the stage was already set for a Page victory. The visitors had established a lead they would not relinquish throughout the course of the game. At the end of the first quarter, the tally was ten to six in Page’s favor. Rapp’s old rivals from the Skyline District increased the margin to 25-13 at the half. Karen Jordan, the alldistrict center from RCHS in 1983 as a freshman, led her teammates in scoring with 13. But in reality, she was shut dow n by Page’s big center wearing number 54, Jackie Bywaters. Although she played much of the contest with four fouls, Bywa Rappahannock News Photo/Ginger Perry CONNIE COMPTON was a study in grim determination as she powered her way to the basket in last week’s game against Page. ters still led all scorers with 21 points. Still Fighting Even down by a sizeable margin of 12 at the beginning of the second half, Rappahannock refused to say die. Time and time again, the Lady Panthers rallied to cut the gap only to see it widened again by the visitors. At the end of a see-saw third period, it was Page 33, Rapp 20. The home Panthers shot well, better than Page from the tree throw line, hitting nine of 17 to Page’s six of 21. But the girls from Rappahannock were felled by due too many turnovers caused by bad passing, careless mistakes that led to traveling violations and fouls plus an excellent defensive effort by Page. Natalie Butler was second high scorer for the home team with nine points followed by Melissa Turner with seven, Connie Compton with six. Guards Kim Settle and Donna Atkins added two each.

Although Rapp’s Rozalind Cooke scored the first basket of the game, sloppy passing and tough defense by Page put the Rappahannock Panthers down at half, 6-11. Rappahannock played well on the defense end of the court but just couldn’t force the turnovers that Page did. To add to Rapp’s demise Page shot nine out of 19 from the free throw line to Rappahannock’s poor one out of six from the charity strip. Rosalind Cooke led Panther scoring with nine points while Melinda Jenkins, Tammy Butler, Charlotte Magee and Kristi Pendleton each chipped in with two. Unfortunately this was not enough to overcome the visitors who simply outplayed the home team Panthers. ★amissville ^ Amissville Firehouse Grounds Friday Sept. 16 One Day Onlyl Shows at 6 & 8 p.m. Amissville Ruritan Club PRESENTS Price at door Adult $4.00 Child $3.00 Advance Sale Price Adult $3.50 Child $2.50 Tickets available from all members and: Hackley’s Store No. Va.
