BZA Rejects Permit Requests By MICHELE MAY Rappahannock News Staff Writer Rappahannock’s board of zoning appeals last Wednesday rejected applications from Patricia Saltonstall for special use permits to build duplex housing for her Points of View Farm workers, finding that her plans weren’t in keeping with the “predominant character of the neighborhood.” Board chairman Lee Bird had problems in casting the negative vote which he felt the language of the zoning ordinance demanded. “The intent of the ordinance is to have one single family dwelling per 25 acre tract, but I don’t think these units would affect the character of the neighborhood. They are well screened by the woods and well spread out,” he said. Saltonstall had proposed building two duplex units, one on “Lot G”, which is 26.88 acres and one of “Lot F” which is 27.6 acres. Both lots on the Lingren-Whaley tract face on Route 729 between Flint Hill and Ben Venue. Saltonstall described the houses as “grand-cottages”, the sort of separate quarters in which one can live comfortably with one’s in-laws under the same roof. “I could say they’re related and do it that way, but I won’t,” she added, saying “as single family buildings, they’re going up anyway. We will build on the lot.” Saltonstall said she hoped to house all her workers relatively close together so they wouldn’t be too isolated in the woods and so she could keep as much of the rest of her property as possible for farmland or in a conservation state. “We hoped to avoid building on the mountains,” she added, saying her future plans for the property include offering a scenic easement. Bird said the board’s vote was based on the belief that “the impact on the county as a whole to have two family units on 25 acres would be inconsistent with the zoning ordinance. However, Mrs. Saltonstall’s desire to save prime farm land is admirable and should be encouraged.” Kidwell, Krebser Opposed Speaking against the special use application were neighbor Roger Kidwell and planning commissioner Werner Krebser. Kidwell was concerned that a private road for the duplexes had already been built and had cut him off from his alleged riparian rights. Kidwell also objected to the precedent that could be set by allowing multifamily rental property in an agricultural area. H. Ben Jones, attorney for Saltonstall, ' characterized the first two of Kidwell’s objections as “private matters not up to the BZA,” noting that a right of way dispute between Kidwell and Saltonstall is currently under litigation. Krebser testified that multi-family dwellings in a conservation district would be contrary to both the present and proposed zoning ordinances. Furthermore, according to Krebser, the county might be required to upgrade the private road to state standards should future residents in the subdivision petition the highway department to take over maintenance. Jones denied that the county would be responsible for such road improvements and Peter Kramer asked that the master be postponed until a representative from the highway department could be invited to answer those questions for the BZA. However, the board was unable to give affirmative answers to all other findings necessary to approve the permit because of the size of the lots in question. The ordinance requires the board to make four findings in the affirmative before it can approve a special permit use, one of which is that the proposed use be in character with the surrounding neighborhood. Kramer suggested, “We ought to make a negative finding and dispose of this” on the grounds of density. “The land capability is not there in a conservation district for two dwelling units on 25 acre lots,” he said. His formal motion to deny both special use permits passed with Jones saying he “object(ed) to the outcome.” Bird suggested to Saltonstall that she might be able to proceed with the project were she to merge the lots into a larger tract in order to preserve the density requirements of the zoning ordinance, but that the board was unable to approve the application under the present lot sizes. Fitzsimmons Bill Fitzsimmons of Huntly told the board that he and his wife are living in a cabin with approximately 600 square feet and want to build a house with approximately 1,500 feet. Fitzsimmons said the couple had outgrown their four room cabin and wanted to retain it as a guest house once they completed construction on their new building. According to zoning administrator David L. Konick, a guest house under the proposed zoning ordinance will be defined as not permanently occupied, not rented and not containing any kitchen facilities. Konick suggested that Fitzsimmons be requested to remove the cabin’s kitchen as a condition of approval of his special use permit. Since the tract in question is three acres, only one permanent dwelling could be allowed under the terms of the zoning ordinance. While Fitzsimmons indicated he would be willing to remove the kitchen, the application was postponed for a vote until after the board could make a site inspection. Kramer said he was “negatively inclined” but wanted to see the site. Shaw Because of the shape of his lot, the board approved a request from James Shaw for a variance to add a family room on the rear of his home on Route 211 between Route 622 and the high school. The addition would be less than 50 feet from the side property line and less than 100 from the rear line. The land was characterized as a “nonconforming lot” and the board members voted that it would unreasonably restrict the use of his land were they to strictly enforce the set-back requirements. Shaw had a letter from his neighbor, Ann L. Spieker, saying that she had no objection to the addition and that the surrounding land was an open field not likely to be affected in any way. The board unanimously approved the application. County Unemployment Climbs While Virginia Employment Commission officials in Culpeper report “a positive trend expected to remain favorable for some time”, Rappahannock County’s unemployment rate climbed by more than half a percentage point in one month. The unemployment rate in Rappahannock for July was 5.5 percent. In recently released figures for August, Keeping It All In The Family In Castleton Castleton has a new post office. Well, maybe only kind of new. The office is still in the Cannon’s home but in Jimmy and Mart>Cannon’s residence instead of Ray Cannon’s real estate office and home. “Mr. Cannon’s father had the post office for at least 30 years. Then Mr. Cannon had it for 30 years. And keeping the family tradition going, I’ve been postmaster for two years, since Mr. Cannon retired,” Marty Cannon explained. At first, she kept the mail at her father-in-law’s place. “Six months ago, the postal service said I could move the office to my home. But you know the federal government—you don’t dare do anything until you get it a formal okay. We waited and waited and then they called on a Friday and asked if we could move the office by Monday. I said sure. Then I went home and told my husband and he panicked!” Marty said, laughing. It was a rush job to get space in the basement of their home set up and closed in as an office and to gravel a circular driveway leading to the side entrance. “We managed but it was something!” Marty said. “We waited so long for the approval and then we were told to do it tomorrow.” The new office holds the handsome mail box case that Mr. Cannon built from HIS new office when he moved the mail from his mother’s old store across the road. “It was 1954 carved on the top. That’s the year he built it,” noted Marty. Although with the tradition of Cannon family postmasters, the service at the new office remains the same. Castleton’s post office remains a full service operation. “Stamps, money orders, C.O.D., packages—we can do everything here you can do anywhere else,” the postmaster concluded. Hours at the new office, located at the intersection of (Continued on Page 16) BZA Meeting Changed The Rappahannock Board of Zoning Appeals will change its regular meeting time to the fourth Wednesday of each month at 9 a.m. starting in November. BZA chairman Lee Bird says citizens should be aware of the board’s mandatory 60 day time limit to consider each case. In order for each to be considered in a timely manner. Bird said, all necessary papers must be filed and dated before the case can be advertised for public hearing. The new cut-off date will be the first Tuesday of each month for cases to be advertised for that month’s meeting. The board approved the change at its October 11 session. It previously met on the second Wednesday of each month. the rate had risen to 6.1 percent. However, the apparently dismal statistic is a matter of the county’s small workforce. The VEC office actually received only six new claims in August. The statistic was also affected by a lower civilian labor force than reported the month before. In July VEC spokesmen reported 2,748 (Continued on Page 16) CASTLETON POSTMASTER Marty Cannon has the new post office ready for customer service.

Threats, Contradictions Mark Hearing On The Inn’s Variance By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock News Staff Writer “We’re sadly witnessing the death of an era,” intoned *hington Mayor Newbill Miller at the close of last Wednesday’s noisy and tension-filled public hearing. “This is the second time we’ve had to have a hearing recorded,” the mayor said, nodding toward the court stenographer. He added that it’s the second time the town’s been threatened with law suits by both the representatives from The Inn at Little Washington and opponents to the restaurant’s request for a zoning variance. “I’ve been personally threatened by one of the parties with (a suit for) punitive damages,” Miller said, adding that despite that threat, he would not be intimidated. Miller continued that not a single member of Washington’s town council believes that the fenced garden extending from The Inn is what was described in an earlier application for a special use permit from Reinhardt Lynch and Patrick O’Connell, proprietors of the restaurant. His statement met with nods of agreement from the councilmembers seated around the table in the crowded courtroom. “We will follow the letter of the law (on The Inn’s latest variance request),” the mayor said, recommending that the council refer the hearing record to its attorney and make a decision at a alter date after weighing the attorney’s advice. “I think that’s right,” responded Councilman C. E. Giles. The rest agreed, all voting unanimously to accept the mayor’s recommendation. “What’s the time frame?” inquired David Dickey, lawyer for The Inn. At issue in the public hearings were (1) an extension of a special use permit granted The Inn three years ago for construction of upstairs bedrooms and (2) a variance on setback distance required by revised plans for the expansion project. The permit extension was granted, the extension tabled following impassioned and often angry testimony and arguments. “No Reason To Do Anything” Lynch recalled that the restaurant’s initial special use permit for the building project was granted in August, 1980. Then in 1982, it became apparent that changes in the original design would be necessary, he added. “I phoned the mayor and asked him what procedure we should follow. And I was told there was no reason to do anything; that it would be handled administratively,” Lynch testified. Since that time, he added, at least .$25,000 has been spent in architect’s and other fees. Architect Albert Hinckley told the council that he was entirely responsible for the design of the proposed addition to The Inn. “I did know about the ordinance but I had reason to believe it would not be a problem.” Near the end of 1980, the architect said, he discovered that “the rooft structure was shot. It must be patched at least once a month now.” Hut the old roof couldn’t be removed without (exposing the costly interior work to weather damage, according to Hinckley. The only alternative was to build a new roof over the old roof and then remove the roof, he maintained. To recoup the cost of that new roof, two suites for paying guests were also included, Hinckley reported. The Inn was “opened basically on a shoe string,” he said, so Lynch and O’Connell “could show that they could struct their stuff.” Plans called for it to be turned by degrees into “the most perfect country inn in America,” Hinckley said. The proposed addition carries out that plan the architect said, bv allowing space lor bathrooms and changing rooms for employees, a sauna bath for guests, more storage rooms, a chef’s office and expanded kitchen facilities. “When that kitchen is going, it’s like a destroyer under battle con ditions or the control lowin' at National Airport during a thunder storm. They produce a plate a minute for six hours!” Hinckley reported. Space is necessary to in crease or even maintain that efficiency, he said. In addition, the expansion proposal provides for safer emergency stairs, narrower stairs in two flights that will be easier for ; leopy overnight guests in bed clothes to descend, he said. “We’re not adding any floors to tin- building. We’re simply making use of a loft,” the architect said, reporting that the ten proposed rooms will cost around $100,(MM). Absolute Necessity He repeated that the roof has to be replaced “It’s an absolute necessity” — but can't be done without first adding a new roof over top to protect the expensive interior of the building. And the cost of t hat new roof can’t be justified without guest rooms and the other added spare which means that a variance to the town's setback regulations must la* granted, Hinckley said. “So you’re saying this is a hardship based on financial need? asked Mayor Miller. “It’s not that they (Lynch and O’Connell) are trying to make more money,” the architect replied. "Hut they have to pay for these things that they Must have.” Roofs are ’frequently replaced in large buildings without first erecting a new roof on top of the old, countered I'oter Labovitz, former owner of The Inn’s building and still owner of Middle St. (Jallery next door. “The beams, the rafters, the whole structure must be replaced. It's a mess. You ought to know. You owned it!” Hinckley responded. Labovitz argued that t Isold roof could be replaced in sections, an approach he's seen used hundreds of times on construction projects, lie also questioned whether the existing staircase doesn't already provide adequate safety and maintained that the “? l(" fire rating for the floor bet ween the restaurant and proposed guest rooms doesn’t meet state requirements. If an emergency occurs while guests are sleeping, “we’ll have people waking up, in their night clothes, a little inebriated — trying to get down a five-foot wide staircase,” said Hinckley, insisting that narrower stairs in two flights would be safer. He also maintained that he’d been told by the county’s building inspector that the floor doesn’t have to have a “2 R” rating. (Continued on I’age lb) Educational Disparities Studied By VEA By MICHELE MAY Rappahannock News Staff Writer The ability of each locality to support education and several measures of commitment to education were the subject of a study released early this month by the Virginia Education Association. The ability of each community to support its schools was measured by its per pupil amount of taxable property in 1981-82. The amount ranged from $646,731 in Surry County to $63,689 in Buena Vista. Buena Vista would have to increase the tax rate by ten times to equal the amount of revenue in Surry. Surry gets a large portion of its tax base from the Vepco nuclear plant, a fact consistent with the finding that the districts with the highest levels of potential funding were those with the greatest amount of commercial and industrial development and with publicutilities located there. Yet rural Rappahannock County ranked in the top ten in terms of ability to support education. The county placed eighth out of 132 dis tricts. The amount of property taxable for school purposes divided by the average daily membership (student attendance) came to $279,081. Rappahannock was near the bottom of the heap as measured by other criteria set by the VEA as indicators of a community’s educational quality. Rappahannock tied for last place with New Kent when measuring the percentage of teachers and administrators with postgraduate certificates. Only 12,2 percent of instructional personnel in Rappahannock and New Kent held the advanced certificates, compared to a high of 51.2 percent in Arlington. A correlation seems to exist with teachers’ salaries. Rappahannock placed 122 of 121 districts listing average annual teacher salary. The average position paid $12,284 in Rappahannock compared with $20,208 in Alexandria. Arlington, with the most graduate degrees, placed third in the state in salary with an average of $24,404. In teems of pupil'teacher ratio, IK KS may seem overcrowded. Kappahanriock placed 120 of 121 divisions in elementary school positions, with 14.1 pupils per teacher, librarian, counselor or other instructional person under contract. The average was better at the secondary level with 15.2 students per teacher and a state rank of 22 out of 120. Thus the overall average at both levels placed Rappahannock at among 121, tying with eight other counties for «7th place, including nearby counties of Fauquier and (Jreenc. Rappahannock placed poorly in the percent of 1982 graduates continuing education with just about a third of the class going on to college or trade school, That compares to 81.4 percent of the 1982 classes in Arlington, the county with the highest track record. Rappahannock ranked 119 out of 129. Rut Rappahannock did well in an area where ranking low is good. The drop(Continued on Page 16)

Zindel Sees Schools As Continuing Issue 1. A couple of years ago a group of citizens in the Amissville area asked me if I would consider running.

I felt that as supervisor it would provide the opportunity to work with and H.(i. “Blltcll’" /iiulfl complement the school hoard.

BY AUTHORITY OF MARK EARfcEY WITTL, CANDIDATE FOR SHERIFF Paid Political Advertisement interests of the county, I would. 5. Yes,.I would. We have to face this sooner or later. It's been ignored and hasn't gone away. Now it’s time to resolve it and we really have no choice. Culpeper and Fauquier Counties put animals to death by injection and bury the animals in a designated area of their landfill. The bodies are buried immediately and deeply to avoid contamination. In talking to Culpeper Animal League, they do not have the facilities to help us. However, according to Fauquier SPCA, they will accept our animals after they’ve been held the minimum five (5) days, inject and bury them for a donation. It could only be a temporary arrangement, however, for twelve months with possible renewal for another twelve months until we provided our own. They do not have the facilities to hold our animals nor do they want dead animals. 6. Definitely! I would interview candidates to determine that they have the interests of the children, of the county and people at heart, and not their own. 7. I would support a delay and would certainly push for a deferment. 8. I believe so. We are ready for a county administrator and that is their job— to administrate, not to govern the county. By having a qualified county administrator, he or she would probably save the county money enough through efficiency to justify their position and pay a portion of their salary. It would also free the supervisors to do their job more effectively and take some burden off the Clerk of the Court. There are wise, competent, retired people who could fill this position with salary to supplement their Social Security or pension. 9. At this time, yes. 10. Like the rest of you, I have an extreme hatred for taxes. I don’t mind county taxes as much as federal taxes. Most of our federal taxes pay for the inefficiency of government. However, we can use, see and reap great benefits from our county taxes. The people currently spending our tax money have been very efficient, I believe. All of the above items should be considered. as are others that haven’t been considered, and I think the people of the county should consider these options and others and be ready to discuss them with their elected representatives. Let the citizens be presented with the budget and the revenues needed to be raised and decide at town meetings how they want to be taxed. Then the supervisors can use this to set the tax structures to insure everyone pays their fair share. I am not trying to avoid the issue. This is the approach I would try in my district. 11. The school budget, facilities and educational requirements will be major issues for years to come. Zoning to accommodate those who cannot afford acreage plus a house, who work in the county and make a contribution to the county. Also those who work out of the county and cannot afford the time to attend to the needs of large acreage. Questions To Candidates 1. What prompted your decision to run for the office of supervisor? 2. What are your qualifications for the post? S. Education has become one of the major issues in this year’s races. Do you support the goals proposed by the Rappahannock Citizens for Quality Education? If not in total, then which part of the group’s propo >u >■ can you endorse? (see attached sheet) As supervisor, would you vote for condemnation of land to provide a landfill that is accessible to the public? If not, how do yon propose to ad equately provide for solid waste disposal which, by state law, is the responsibility of the county board of supervisors? ■). Rappahannock doesn't come close to complying with state regulations for dog pounds. As supervisor, would you vote to approve an appropriation for providing adequate facilities that meet state s tanda rds ? C u rre ntly, stray dogs that have been put to death are buried by the dog warden on his own property, a practice that he has warned he will not continue. The county’s deadline for coming up with an alternative , means of disposing of the bodies has passed. As supervisor, how would you solve this problem of disposal of dead stray dogs? 6. As supervisor, what procedures would you follow infilling vacancies from your district on the school board and the planning commission? Would you publicly solicit input from constituents? 7. Do you support or oppose a delay in the scheduled reassessment of county property which ynust be completed to be effective in tax year 1985 unless the board of supervisors re quests and gets approved from the state for a one or tivo gear deferment? 8. Would you vote to create the post of county administrator under the conditions that it would be a full-time job with responsibilities as zoning administrator, administrator for Sperryville's sewer system and clerk to the board of supervisors? 9. Do you support a continuation of land use taxation and approval of agricultural and forested districts? 10. As an alternative to raising the levy on real estede to meet revenue needs, would you, as supervisor, approve (a) instituting a tret ns fer fee on real estate transactions (b) raising the fee for coinity stickers from the $15 currently charged to the new state maximum of $20, (c) instituting a fee for business and professional licenses (d) restoring personal property taxes (e) restoring the tax on farm machinery and livestock and (f) asking the General Assembly for enabling legislation for an amusement tax that would include a tax on restaurant meals? 11. Are there any other major issues that you expect the board of supervisors to be faced with in the next four years? Lane Wants To Avoid Desperate Taxation 1. What prompted me now as in 1980 are my feelings of duty, honor and country. I have gotten to know the people of my district well, along with their values and what is important to them, since my introduction to the county 22 years ago in 1961. When I decided to marry and raise a family, I came to Rappahannock. 1 feel it is my duty as a landowner and responsible member of the community. 2. I feel I am qualified for the position for many reasons. I have many friends all over the county and can relate well with them regardless of whether they’re knee deep in a winter feed lot or at the controls of a 747. 1 have had the opportunity to experience much and feel qualified because my heart’s in it. 3. I support the goals of people concerned with our schools. I’m proud of the achievements we’ve made toward these goals. As for the particular “Rappahannock Citizens for Quality Education” requests: “For this school year: Lt Study current vocational programs and explore possible alternatives. . .” I support. It’s part of everyday life, already taking place. The study of all programs never leaves the agenda of our administrators. “2. Complete the cost assessment for high school addition, and apply for literary loan or other source of funds.” Again, this is already happening. The school board presently has a trip scheduled for October 18 to visit neighboring counties to see how Stanley and Luray have done exactly what we may do. . . expanding into the gym and building a new gym. This idea has appeal because it minimizes new construction and there are numerous outfits that erect these structures quickly and at a low cost per foot of space. However, I will not jump until we have defined the landing, regardless of how long this is considered overdue. I w'ill avoid doing county business in a hurry as I would want to be just as proud of my decision ten years from now. When faced with eviction from both the school board office and the bus shop, I suggested exactly what RVSOk ELECT % JOHN WALKER JENKINS C> for SHERIFF of Rappahannock County General Election Tuesday, November 8, 1983 Printed by authority of Virginia Cloud, Treasurer Jenkins for Sheriff we’ve done to remove the situation. There is an open house at the office bus shop at b:15 on October 26. Please come see the building. The board will be present for a meeting. “2. Publish specific curriculum for gifted and talented program by the end of first semester. ” !\elson Lane I fully support our superintendent’s recommendations on the gifted and talented program taking place in all rooms and at all J times. “For next school vear (1984-1985): 1. Restore budget authority to school board by stopping specific budget cutting within categories." I will not attempt to oppose or rewrite the law, but I support this. I look forward to the school board doing their own homework. “2. Offer all students use of computers in both schools, with the goal of requiring V-> year of computer experience for graduation by 1988 (this year’s 8th graders).’’ Basically I support this. I would need to see the figures and hear more about it to pledge my support irrevocably on this. “3. Offer foreign language to elementary students.” I have mixed feelings on this. I feel elementary school is early. Some private schools offer this and some do not. Your estimated cost could only cover a half of a teacher which could be hard to find. I would have to shop around my district for advice on this. “4. Implement proposed index pay scale for teachers with reasonable cost of living increase.” I have put many hours into this index proposal and served on the Index Committee and oppose it for the same simple reason. When I go to press with a 10 percent increase that is exactly what I mean. I domot mean to add 10 percent to part of a formula, which then creates a range of actual dollar increase from year to year. We spend a lot of time and effort to be fair in the consideration of all people. I do not intend to bias myself to our minimum range teachers against our new or career teachers. The index takes 10 percent and gives some 8 percent and some 12 percent. I don’t feel this is consistent with our policy. I would support an update of our present step increase system that is so similar to the index without the inequality. “5. Study merit pay systems for teachers and make recommendations.” Again this is everyday life - already steaming down the track. We have all heard Mr. Eastham’s crusade for merit pay continuously for the past three years to our teachers who opposed it totally for various reasons. I support any proper incentive and to have one’s salary reflect the type of service he gives the community. While I support the program. I feel it will be very challenging in practice in a public organization where its acceptance is not whole-hearted. “6. Upgrade pay for teachers’ extra duty assignments to at least state average.” We have made large increases in the past to this end. We’ll keep working on it. “7. Begin high school addition sufficient to meet needs per census for next 10 years.” I do not feel the census mandates this request. I feel it is due to the quality of our teaching enviftjnment. I clearly see the need for improvement, but I would not tie it to a census. I hope the school board will cautiously proceed to make a practical recommendation to the county and proceed in this direction. 4. I would hope not to resort to condemnation of private property for a county landfill. I feel there are numerous possibilities around this action. 5. I don’t know what the state standards are or what they could cost or what penalties would be imposed if we found our own way to deal with the destruction of stray animals. I would like to have an agreeable situation with the dog warden and tie the disposal into the landfill. fi. I would be extremely cautious in filling any vacancies knowing the challenges of the position. To restate your question, yes, I would solicit input from the public. 7. I don’t know if I support or oppose a delay of scheduled reassessment. Very few people have recovered from the last one yet. Someone is paying for all that confusion. 8. I don't have enough information to tie my hands one way or the other. I would be more likely to make the condition that it be a full time position, if conditions were such that it would, in fact, be a full time position. 9. Yes, I believe at this time I would support continuation of this practice. 10. This question could e.xhause my ink supply, so I’ll answer generally. I would do what I can to control the need for desperate taxation. I would do much research to gather all alternative routes of action and make the most reasonable recommendation. In closing, I believe Rappahannock is as fine a place to live as any I’ve seen anywhere. This is exactly why I’m here with my family. I can’t believe I would volunteer for this position anywhere but Rappahannock. I have had the honor of serving on the School Board and have tried to honor the position by being true to my word, answering and not stepping around a question, and having an opinion. Don’t curse the farmer with your mouth full and don’t think too poorly of your schools. What’s described as understaffed, under-funded, with leaky flat roof has just taken number one in region and number two rank in the state for minimum competency testing as evidence in the Rappahannock and Culpeper papers and in the Northern Virginia Daily. This test was taken by 78,000 students in Virginia, and we beat approximately 76,986 of these students or 98.7%. I hope we have not let our performance in the T.V. quiz show vanish from the screen already. Mr. Zindel in last week’s issue appeared to be pantomiming a school board member bragging 4 percent raises. I didn't see a one. We’re working presently on the hose in the hallway and the high school added a new set of Brittanicas to its references last year.

Gilkey Supports Scheduled Reassessment 1. The reason I seek reelection is because I would like to see Rappahannock prosper, grow and remain as close as possible to the rural life and agriculture that we have. mmsssssmimm Hubert Gilkev 2. My qualifications are a love for the county and a need to be responsive to the people of Rappahannock County, to listen and convey there messages and desires. And with four years of service to the county, I know the things that can and cannot be achieved. And also save the tax payers money. 3. Education is a touchy subject and I think every student should be able to have the best that the county can offer. However, I cannot support the goals proposed by the Rappahannock Citizens for Quality Education in total. The first three parts, I support whole heartedly as they are. I support offering students the use of computers in both schools, with the goal of requiring one half of a year of computer experience for graduation. I am not against index pay scale for teachers. I support addition to the high school to meet the cenr sus lor the next 10 years. However, the projected amounts to the tax payers of Rappahannock County (some figures claim $63.00, some $36.00 per year) as an average leaves room for doubt. As we know, some life-long residents of Rappahannock are on a fixed income. This could work a hardship on these people. I have found that when you average things, it leaves something to be desired. As we all know, this average will cause some to pay more and some will pay less. I would like to see figures as to who will pay more and who will pay less. 4. As supervisor, I would like very much to see this county have a landfill of its own. And if condemnation was the only way to achieve this, then I would vote for condemnation. 5. I think that if the county had its own landfill, this problem could be taken care of to everyones satisfaction. I also feel we need a facility to handle these dogs. I personally know the job that Mr. Jack Bruce has done for this county and I take my hat off to him because I know that no one would have provided the service he has for this county for so long, with no more than he has had to work with. 6. As in the past, the people of my district have made there concerns about appointment to me. These are the people I serve and will always be the ones I listen to. 7. I support the scheduled reassessment of county property. 3. I think this county is fast moving in the direction of a county administrator. I believe this position would (Continued on Page 16) EQUAL HOUSIN' OPPORTUNIT' state Eileen M, Day realtor ‘‘FULL HOUSE” HELPS SELL Sudden transfers are not all unusual in the business world. A man may come to work in the morning and find that he has been assigned a position — often a better one — in another city. He’s also told that he must be there within a couple of weeks. A problem immediately confronts the family. Should they all move — wife, children, and furnishings — to the new town before the house is sold? This would leave the Realtor an empty house to sell. Is this a good idea? The answer is no! There’s a saying in real estate that’s repeated over and over again, and it’s still valid: “Don't sell a house, sell a HOME!” And a home has furniture in it. When prospects look at a furnished home, they relate to it as possibly being their future home. They do this because it's furnished, even though their own sofa, chairs, lamps, pictures, tables, etc. are not there. A furnished home is much easier to sell than an empty house. Furthermore, a room with furniture and accessories in it looks bigger than an empty room. Last, but certainly not least, a furnished home will often sell for more than an empty one.

Saturday, Oct. 29 Cider Apples Candy Questions To Candidates 1. What prompted your decision to run for the office of superi'isor? 2. What are your qualifications for the post? 2. Education has become one of the major issues in this year's races. Do you support the goals proposed by the Rappahannock Citizens for Quality Education? If not in total, then which parts of the group's proposals can you endorse? (see attached sheet) As supervisor, would you vote for condemnation of land to provide a landfill that is accessible to the public? If not, how do you propose to adequately provide for solid waste disposal which, by state law, is the responsibility of the county board of supervisors? 5. Rappahannock doesn’t come close to complying with state regulations for dog pounds. As superi’isor, would you vote to approve an appropriation for providing adequate facilities that meet state standards? Currently, stray dogs that have been put to death are buried by the dog warden on his own property, a practice that he has warned he will not continue. The county's deadline for coming up with an alternative means of disposing of the bodies has passed. .As supervisor, how would you solve this problem of disposal of dead stray dogs? 6. .As supervisor, what procedures would you follow in filling vacancies from your district on the school board and the planning commission? Would you publicly solicit input from constituents? 7. Do you support or oppose a delay in the scheduled reassessment of county property which must be completed to be effective in tax year 1985 unless the board of supervisors requests and gets approval from the state for a one or two year deferment? 8. Would you vote to crea te the post of county admin istrator under the conditions that it would be a full-time job with responsibilities as zon ing administrator, administrator for Sperryinlle's sewer system and clerk to the board of supervisors? 9. Do you support a continuation of land use taxation and approval of agricultural and forestal districts? 10. As an alternative to raising the levy on real estate to meet revenue yieeds, would you, as supervisor, approve (a) instituting a transfer fee on real estate transactions (b) raising the fee for coun ty stickers from the $15 currently charged to the new state maximum of $20, (c) instituting a fee for business and professional licenses (d) restoring personal property taxes (e) restoring the tax on farm machinery and livestock and (f) asking the General Assembly for enabling legislation for an amusement tax that would include a tax on restaurant meals? 11. Are there any other major issues that you expect the board of supervisors to be faced with in the next four years? Latham Wants To Complete Unfinished Projects 1. I felt that there were things unfinished that I wanted to see completed. I am also aware of other problems facing the county on which I believe I can make a contribution towards finding a solution. 2. I’m a life-long resident of Rappahannock, familiar with the county and its needs. I’ve been a member of the board for 12 years and chairman for the past 2'A 3. I supported an increase in the educational budget that would have made the index pay scale possible. Unfortunately, it wasn’t passed by the board. . •% *’ J. R. Latham The board of supervisors can not make cuts within categories of the school budget. In our work sessions, these line items are considered in our overall decision to approve money for each category. Bottom line approval would certainly take pressure off the board of supervisors but it would further remove the people from the decision-making process. I think offering a limited course in computer training and foreign language is necessary to stimulate curiosity and interest at an early age. This is already being done in other schools. We should constantly study programs offered to see if there is duplication or changes needed. In dealing with the other suggestions of the Rappahannock Citizens for Quality Education, I will have to Building? • Paint • Lumber ' • Millwork j • Hardware* Complete One-Step BUILDING SUPPLY Warrenton Building Material Co., Inc. on the By-Pass, Warrenton 347-1400 rely on the advice of school officials. As for capital outlay, I know that what is needed won’t come cheap. I would like to know what we can get for $750,000. 4. If all other efforts fail, I see no choice but to condemn. 5. We have money in this year’s budget to provide improved facilities for a dog pound. As for disposing of dead animals, the landfill site would be the answer. 6. In the past, I have never received a complaint that a board or commission member representing Jackson District was not performing his or her duties to the satisfaction of the residents of the district. I would welcome suggestions on filling vacancies on boards and commissions as well as on other matters handled by the board of supervisors. 7. I would suggest a one year delay. We are facing sizable expenditures for school improvements artd court room renovations. The equalization board just finished its work in 1982 and another reassessment is estimated to cost between $60,000 and $80,000. 8. As we face more demands for services with all the accompanying regulations, a county administrator is something we need to consider. I have supported the Sperryville sewer project because it was the only possible way that the town’s pollution problem could be solved. After the system is completed, I hope the people of Sperryville — with the assistance of the water and sewer authority — will take over and manage their own affairs. 9. Yes, I support land use. I do not know of a fairer way to tax anything than on the value of its use. All of our neighboring counties have use value taxation, some for as long as ten years. 10. I want to make sure that Rappahannock County is getting its fair share of state and federal funds. I would like to see any increase in taxes shared by everyone except our low income residents and the elderly who meet specific eligibility requirements. 11. We have a big agenda before us and it has been my experience over the past 12 years that will never be without problems to solve. PUBLIC AUCTION Saturday, Oct. 22,1983 6:30 P.M.

My decision to run for the office of supervisor from Piedmont District was prompted by local support. 1 am a life-long resident of Rappahannock County. Some of the factors that prompted me to seek reelection are: (a) the Rappahannock County zoning ordinance, (b) the Rappahannock County school system, (c) improvements to U.S. Route 211, (d) the Sperry ville sewer system, (e) a county landfill (f) the county jail and other county buildings. 1 feel that within the next few years, improvements can be made in all of the above areas. Charles Estes 2. I served as sheriff of Rappahannock County for 10 years. I am a member of the planning commission and a former member of the county’s board of zoning appeals. I believe I have good insight into the current problems and any future problems that we may face in Rappahannock County. 3. I support the majority of the RCQE’s goals. I think current vocational programs should be studied and possible alternatives explored; the cost assessment for the high school addition should be completed and literary loan or other funds applied for; a specific curriculum for the gifted and talented program should be published by the end of the first semester. But I think the supervisors should retain the option of cutting the school budget by categories. 1 think an index pay scale for teachers needs more study before it is implemented. I agree that the high school complex needs a thorough study and reorganization. There is a possibility that there will ave to be an addition made to the complex. I think a workable plan should be on record before the price tag is fixed. I support the remainder of the RCQE goals: offer students use of computers at both schools, offer foreign language to elementary students, study merit pay for teachers and upgrade pay for teachers’ extra duty assignments to at least state average. As supervisor. 1 would vote to approve a school budget that includes an appropriation for capital outlay at the high school. 4. As suj>ervisor. I would vote for condemnation of land to provide a landfill that is accessible to the public. 5. The dog pound problem can be solved by locating it at the landfill site. The supervisor of the landfill could also feed and see to the needs of the animals in custody. A separate trench could be dug for disposal of dead animals. (>. As supervisor, I have in the past solicited the advice and opinions of constituents from Piedmont District. I will continue to do so. 7. I support a one year delay in the scheduled reassessment at this time. N. I believe a new position of county administrator should be considered by the board. O. 1 have supported land use taxation and, with modification, will continue to do so. 10. Any alternative to raising the levy on real estate would take serious study. 1 believe the tax burden should be distributed as equally as possible.

OCTOBER 20, 1983 Perfect Example Last weekend offered a perfect example of the type of “light industry” — tourism — that can and should be attracted to Rappahannock County. Hundreds of house tourers jammed the Trinity Parish Hall to choose from the more than 4o() dried flower arrangements on display there before trooping through the three lovely homes opened to visitors. Before, after and in between, they browsed and bought in the town of Washington’s shops. They purchased box lunches at the church or dined at Nature’s Cafe or the Black Kettle. A lucky few with reservations stayed for dinner at The Inn. Driving to the tour homes through Flint Hill, they shopped for antiques and apples and stopped for a bite at the Corner Post or returned later that evening for a meal. It was wonderful to see. The streets of Washington were bustling. The businesses were busy. Even kids were selling peanuts and fruit. Kv eryone was smiling. It was the same in Sperryville. Hundreds more visitors drove to the little village in the shade of the Blue Ridge, attracted by fall’s color extravaganza or the Sperryville Antique Market’s first craft show. Peggy and Arthur Smith were hosts to the Washington Press Club for lunch at the Antique Market. The press clubbers joined the house tourers and then brought tourers back to Sperryville. They spent dollars for crafts and antiques and then stopped at the roadside ^stands for apples and cider, jams, jellies, butters and preserves. Rappahannock County needs more weekends like last weekend. Clubs, groups and businesses should cooperate in planning more events that attract tourists and tourist dollars. That way, we can keep our economy healthy while preserving and protecting the rural beauty, character and lifestyle we have all come to cherish. Looking At Rappahannock By EUGENE McCARTHY This is the main season for looking at Rappahannock County. People from the urban areas of Virginia and Maryland, a few other nearby states and from the District of Columbia are driven or drawn west toward the mountains to look at the change in the color of the leaves of trees and vines as the fall season comes on. There is some serious looking at Rappahannock County in the spring when the blossoms of wild cherry, red-bud and wild plum, followed by erabapple and the glory of the dogwood, give first color to that season and some casual watching or looking at the county in the summer and in the winter, especially after snowfall or after sleet storms when all the winter wonder of New Hampshire and of Vermont is transferred to Rappahannock County. But the truly purposeful looking is that of the autumn. Most of those who come to look quite probably do not know that it is Rappahannock County they are looking at. They may well miss the road sign of 211 just east of Amissville, but a few miles beyond that town they must, if at all sensitive, note the subtle changes in landscape and in terrain. The land is rougher. There are outcroppings of flint and of granite. The hills are sharper. The road takes on a different character. There are no more of the easy sweeps that mark it on either side of Warrentnn. The Blue Ridge mountains become more blue and Old Rag begins to stand out. The havfields are clear, with the rolled bales fenced in hay lots, and the cows and spring calves graze in pastures and meadows with a quiet intensity, as though they knew they must be ready for winter. The apple trees still carry green leaves. Most have been relieved of their summer's burden but a few still show the red and green of late ripeners. At roadside and in the hedges a few flowers sur 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. vive — yellow daisies and chicory, grey-blue asters that have escaped the highway department's last cutting or come back after the mowers passed, a few trumpet dowers blaze among the honey suckle vines that encumber the fences. And then the colors begin: first sumac, singed and turning to a savage orange and red: the fiery pentecostal tongues of gum tree leaves: the dogwood, some green and red and others the color of dried blood. Beyond these are the varied yellows of beech and poplar, of ash and hickory and elm, the bronzek. the copper and the red of oak trees and the sudden surprising Hares of maples. All these colors are tempered by the remaining green of willows in the low lands and the continuing green of pine, cedar and of hemlock and of the fir trees that run the ridges of the hills and mountains. In three seasons the residents of Rappahannock County are scarcely visible. In the spring a traveller passing through the county may see a few of them in field or garden or feeding cattle, spraying an orchard and old men loitering on the steps to country stores and in the summer at the easy and pleasant work of cutting, raking and baling hay. In the winter, they are scarcely seen, but heard, cutting logs or wood. But in the autumn they come out. The road sides are lined with stands, some permanent, some temporary, offering to those who pass the first and special fruits of the harvest: some late peaches but principally apples in great variety — Virginia winesaps, yorks, staymans, delicious, grimes, pippins and others; tomatoes, onions, squash, pumpkins; slightly processed and packaged products — cider and sorghum, honey (cultured and wild), apple sauce and preserves, especially strawberry, grape and peach. Then there are the works of craftsmen - baskets and chairs, furniture and quilts, stuffed animals and higher works of potters, glass and pewter workers, iron-workers, smiths and weavers. Farmers and gardeners and their wives and children are there at roadside. In the meadows baled hay is being moved on fork lifts or in wagons and on the road hay trucks have begun to move. Trucks with wood cut last winter and cured through the summer are on the highway headed for the fireplaces of Georgetown, cut and piled according to the measure of a “Georgetown cord”. The alert Rappahannock watcher may see the county hunt moving across meadow, field and hill-side pastures, following the uncertain milling hounds or at a gallop when a fox has been raised. Pick-up trucks are out in numbers especially on the side roads, some with guns in the wrack across the rear window, some with sign of guns — two, three and even four persons in a cab, alert for squirrel, turkey, grouse, deer or even bear, only in season, one assumes. Visitors looking at Rappahannock County and its people and its products and wares should know that they are being watched and looked and studied in turn. Rappahannock County is a good place from which to look. It is backed up against mountains. Most of its people live in hollows, which give security and irrected perspective. F&M Income Increases Third quarter net income for F & M National Corporation was $638.9 thousand or 36 cents up from $460.8 thousand or 26 cents per share a year ago. Net income for the first three quarters of 1983 was. $2 million or $1.5 per share compared with $1.4 million or 82 cents per share last year. Earnings for the first nine months were equal to a return of l.Oo percent on average total assets and a 13.S3 percent return on average stockholders’ equity. At the end of September total deposits were $239.2 million up from $211.4 million a year earlier, net loans increased from $129.7 mil lion to $152.3 million over the same period.

I would like them to read these articles in the paper, as I have told them a few of the things that happened, particularly about the drought in 1930 and the problems of the depression. I was supervising the man agement of Mount Vernon Farm and I remember during the drought we bought seven carloads of hay shipped in from the West to Culpeper and hauled to Sperryville. We also sold cull cows for 2Vie a pound. I remember visiting the poor farm with Uncle Hill O’Bannon and Cousin Willie Wood the day that the supervisors were fed by Mr. & Mrs. Woodward. There was so much good food on the ta ble that everybody ate much more than normal and one of the supervisors asked the other one how he would like to eat like that every day and he said he would love it. The supervisor said, “but you wouldn’t live very long if you ate every day like you did today,” and he said, “no, but I sure would live while I was living.” J. CLIFFORD MILLER, JR. Richmond Unnecessary Comments To the editor: In the October 6th issue of The Rappahannock News, statements were printed that I made concerning our basketball game with Warren County High School on September 29. Those statements did not reflect the feelings of the R.C.H.S. Athletic Department or coaching staff and were unnecessary. I ask the Rappahannock fans, Warren County High School Athletic Department and game official Alan Wimer to please disregard my comments.

JULIE MUSIC Sperryville This Was The News In Bygone Rappahannock Times... 33 YEARS AGO RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS COLLIERS MAGAZINE planned to publish a story on the allwoman election at Washington. I.T. Tweed, from Colliers, bragged that he had met the prettiest mayor in America after shaking hands with Dorothy Davis. The “She-Town” issue was to be available for sale at the News office starting October 27. Anyone wanting to reserve an issue was invited to call Washington 2851. On Sunday, October 15, Shenandoah Park received 27,952 visitors, the largest number of people to enter the park in any one day since 1941. The cars poured along Lee Highway in a continuous stream all day long, at one point making the turn at the Washington signal light at the rate of 26 per minute. Weather conditions had been good for unusually fine fall colors. 20 YEARS AGO RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS Librarians anna may and Josephine Stambaugh had recently completed cataloguing books and putting them in the stacks in preparation for the October 19 opening and dedication of the new Rappahannock County Library. Following a short ceremony at the library, a motorcade proceeded to the high school for an address by state’s attorney general Robert Y. Button of Culpeper and Richmond. October 26 was set for the opening meet of the Rappahannock Hunt. The season was set to start at “Stonehaven”, the Woodville home of Mr. and Mrs. George Muth. The recently elected roster of Rappahannock Hunt Club officers carried James W. Fletcher and John R. DeBergh as Jointmasters, positions they had held since 1950. - From Both Barrels Sisisky: A Watchdog Barks By GEORGE BOWLES Rep. Norman Sisisky (D-Va./4th) is creating something of a stir in Washington these days. Both Pentagon contracting officials and some of his colleagues across the land who have been contentedly feeding their constituents at the federal trough are eyeing him with concern. For so long that the memory of man runneth not to the contrary, Virginia politicians have survived and prospered on two well-nigh sacrosanct issues. One of these has been the mortal peril perceived in excessive federal deficits; the other, the imperative of an ever stronger national defense. Indeed, it seems only yesterday that conservatives in both parties were beating their breasts over Jimmy Cartels red ink spending. For most of his term this shortball was in the $50 billion per year range, although in fiscal 1979 he actually got it down to just more than $27 billion. This, of course, now seems like chicken feed, or peanuts if you will. Although the Reagan deficits are running around $200 billion per year, and in spite of the fact that the national debt has grown more in the past three years than it had in the preceding half century, our fiscal conservatives in Washington are strangely silent. A record like that under Carter would have brought mobs into the streets calling for his impeachment. While piously preaching the virtues of thrift, most oi tne memoers or our Virginia delegation have diligently worked the Pentagon’s pork barrell in the Old Dominion’s behalf. A strong national defense means gigantic weapons and construction contracts, and the more of which can be awarded to Virginia firms, the better - and when it comes to the cost of these contracts, and the waste involved in them, well, the less said about it the better. It is all right to criticize waste in the abstract, but thhere is a sort of gentleman’s code against being too specific about it, especially when it involves a specific state’s share of the pork. Over the past several weeks, however, Sisisky has suddenly emerged as not only a watchdog of defense spending, but as one who doesn’t hesitate to bark when he sees the hand of waste in the public purse. According to Sisisky’s voting record, he is as defense-minded as the next guy, and he says he has no intention of hurting the state’s defense industry, but still he says he sees things which make him made. For example: • At Fort Pickett, in Sisisky’s home district, he found the Army had over estimated the cost of a $7 million dollar training complex by more than $2 million. The Army kept the change. • A $38 millio medical facility in North Dakota was overpriced by at least $4 million. • The initial outlay for a construction project at Travis Air Force Base, Calif., was estimated to be $52 milion. Under Sisisky’s probing, the cost tumbled to $5.5 million. • He found the military was spending $8,500 per pupil space to build a dependents’ school in Europe, or more than twice the cost of building a similiar school in Virginia. These and other discoveries by the Southside congressman led to a three-day hearing before the Military Installations and Facilities Subcommittee of the House Armed Services Committee, of which Sisisky is a member. During the hearings Sisisky uncovered a stunning $143 million dollars in over estimated and over funded costs. He also learned that the military budgeteers consider estimate errors of up to 11 percent acceptable. This loose handling of public money shocked the businessman-tumed-congressman. Sisisky is convinced that if this amount of savings can be achieved in the relatively limited area of military facilities construction, infinitely greater economies can be realized in the weapons systems contracts which absorb a far larger share of the defense dollars. Furthermore, he believes the savings can be made without the slightest compromise of national security. “We saved $58 million when we found the military was planning to build dependent schools at bases in Europe where there are no military dependents,” he said. “We found they were spending $500 for claw hammers and $100 for 49-cent nuts and bolts. All these purchases should be put out for competitive bids.” “When you are talking about an 11 percent over estimation on a construction budget of $8.5 billion, you are talking about a billion dollar waste. We chopped Reagan’s total defense budget of roughly $187 billion by about $11 billion this year just eliminating waste. We didn’t hurt defense at all.” “And when they come back for the new budget next year,” he said, “we’ll be waiting for them.” Having sighted the tip, Sisisky now wants to determine the size of the iceburg. May his tribe increase! Free Cheese Offered “No wine to go with it?” the cartoon figure quipped during the commodity surplus cheese distribution. Local social services spokesman Sylvia Kreitler says there won’t be wine at her office Saturday, but something new has been added — powdered milk. Each of the county’s food stamp households is entitled to one box of dry milk, a pound of butter per person and a proportionate amount of the cheese. The distribution is intended only for persons receiving food stamps. No one else will receive any of the cheese, Kreitler says. She added that food stamp identification cards must be presented. Social services personnel will no longer accept drivers licenses or other forms of identification. Volunteers have gone to Winchester to pick up the dairy products for Saturday’s distribution which will be held at the social services office on Main Street in Washington. Recipients must pick up their food or send authorized representatives. Kreitler says the office cannot make home deliveries. Pick up may be made on Saturday from 9-12 and 1-3. During the spring, Kreitler says there were approximately 130 people present for the butter and cheese distribution. Her office holds the distributions twice a year. The food comes from the federal surplus commodities storage. Correction In an article on the candidates’ forum in the October 13 edition of the Rappahannock News, questioner Bob Evans was indescribed as a friend and former employee of Patricia Saltonstall’s. Evans has never been an employee of Ms. Saltonstall’s. The News regrets the error.

Baldwin Emphasizes 10 Years Experience l. 1 received numerous requests from my constituents to run again. Also, I want to continue to be of service to the people of Hampton District, having served them for the past ten years as their supervisor. Clarence Baldwin 2. I have served as supervisor for the past ten years. I am a native of Rappahannock County. My background makes it possible for me to relate to and effectively represent people in all walks of life. As a small businessman and as someone who makes his living in Rappahannock, I appreciate the need for and will effectively work to provide better educational and employment opportunities to the people of this county. 3. I support quality education. In my opinion, the key to the future of Rappahannock’s young people is to provide better education. I have four grandchildren in the public schools and recognize the need for a good education. I support, in general terms, the goals of the Rappahannock Citizens for Quality Education. However, I believe I would be acting irresponsibly if I were to commit myself to support an appropriation of public funds prior to the review of the following: a) Priorities in the field of education, as established by the School Board, and b) The county’s revenue projections, financial commitments for the next fiscal year and the potential additional burden on the taxpayer. This information is not now available and will not be available for sometime. The board of supervisors is the only arm of county government directly accountable to the people. Therefore, I feel that the board should continue to be responsible for establishing spending levels within specific categories. This is a practice that has been followed periodically in Rappahannock County over the years. The School Board retains the right to come back to the supervisors at any time during the fiscal year to request a reallocation of funds within the school budget. I will give a lot of weight to their requests in this area. I have no objection to a study of current vocational programs and a study of merit pay. I would prefer, however, to consult with the school board and superinten FLINT HELL HARVEST DINNER Saturday, November 5 4 P.M. to 7 P.M. | at , FLINT HILL FIRE HALL j i MENU: PORK BARBECUE ON BUN OR HAM, COLE SLAW, BAKED \ BEANS, BAKED APPLES, DESSERTS & BEVERAGES $4.00 per person : u?AUCT Saturday, Oct. 22nd, 10:00 A.M.

If not in total, then ichich parts of the group's proposals can pou endorse! (see attached sheet) As supervisor, would pou rote for condemnation of land to provide a landfill that is accessible to the public! If not, how do pou propose to adequatelp provide for solid waste disposal which, bp state law, is the responr.ibilitp of the countp board of supervi sors? 5. Rappahannock doesn't come close to complying ivith state regulations for dog pounds. As supervisor, would you vote to approve an appropriation for providing• adequate facilities that meet state standards? Currently, stray dogs that have been put to death are buried by the dog warden on his own property, a practice that he has warned he will not continue. The county’s deadline for coming up with an alternative tneans of disposing of the bodies has passed. As supervisor, how would you solve this problem of disposal of dead stray dogs? 6. As supervisor, what procedures would you follow in filling va cancies from your district on the school board and the planning commission? Would you publicly solicit input from constituents? 7. Do you support or oppose a delay in the scheduled reassessment of county property which must be completed to be effective in tax year 1985 unless the board of supervisors requests and gets approval from the state for a one or two year deferment? 8. Would you vote to create the post of county administrator under the conditions that it would be a full-time job with responsibilities as zoning administrator, administrator for Sperryvilte's sewer system and cleric to the board of supervisors? 9. Do you support a continuation of land use taxation and appromi of agricultural and forestnl districts? 10. As an alternative to raising the levy on real estate to meet revenue needs, would you, as supennsor, approve (a) instituting a transfer fee on real estate transactions (b) raising the fee for county stickers from the $15 currently charged to the new state maximum of $20, (c) instituting a fee for business and professional licenses (d) restoring personal property taxes (e) restoring the tax on farm machinery and livestock and (e) asking the General Assembly for enabling legislation for an amusement tax 11. Are there any other major issues ? Wood Sees Need For Active Representative 1. I decided to run as a write-in candidate for Hampton District su|>ervisor because I believe that the people need an active and vocal representative, a person who is willing to vote for needed chances. Diane Wood 2. I’ve lived in Rappahannock County for seven years and owned land for five years. I’ve spent the Kilpatrick Wants Accessible Government 1. A desire to make the county government more open and accessible to all citizens. I also want to offer the voters in StonewallHawthorne District a chance to vote for someone who is not tied to old policies and methods on either the board of supervisors or the school board. Sean kilpatrirk 2. I graduated from the University of Virginia and spent a dozen years as a .journalist watching local governments in Virginia wrestle with the kinds of problems this county is facing today and will face tomorrow. I believe that background and insight will be useful on the board. Also, I have been active in church and community affairs and have learned through that work some of the needs and desires of this community. •k In general I support the recommendations of the citizens' group that is trying to improve our schools. My one concern is with budgetary control. As I understand the law, the supervised have the power to deal with the school board budget by category but not by line item. I have no desire to hold any school board to line-item control. But I am not pleased with the way the school board handled its money during the past fiscal year (ending June 30, 1983), and I am a little uneasy at the thought of giving up categorical control immediately. I firmly believe that it is long past time to deal with the problems at the high school. The longer we delay the more it is going to cost. I would oppose giving the school board a blank check. I stand to the middle ground: I do not want any expansion of the high school to be done so cheaply we are left with not enough space to do the job (like the current basketball court); but I do not see the need for a “Rolls Royce’’ effort such as Culpeper County expended on its new junior high. 4. I am not happy with the dumpsters we are now using. I think serious thought should be given to using the truck-sized dumpsters that are being used in several counties in Virginia. When the board agrees to find a' new land-fill site, I would expect the supervisors to purchase the needed land without being forced to condemnation. 5. I believe that state regulations permit dead animals to be buried in a landfill. The tricky part of this question is “state standards” for a county animal shelter. If memory serves, the state’s temperature standards are unreasonable—requiring the shelter to be warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer than most homes in this county. I can not support such nonsense and would work to get the state’s standards made more reasonable. I do favor building better facilities to house stray animals than we now have. I do not favor a Rappahannock Hilton for dogs. 6. Public input should always be sought by the Board of Supervisors before filling ANY position. That means advertising the upcoming appointment in advance and then listening to what people have to say. 7. The state requires reassessments every four years, but permits smaller counties such as Rappahannock to request a deferment. Our last reassessment was started in 1980 and left a great deal of bitterness in its wake. That reassessment did not appear on our tax bills until 1982. I would certainly expect the tax bills due in 1985 to reflect a new assessment. 8. I don’t know. Sperryville’s sewer system is likely to require some sort of administrator who is available every working day. Also, I do not like the current system of a part-time zoning administrator’s office. But I do not know if the voters of this county are ready to make so fundamental a change in our form of government. 9. When ag districts are formed the land, in effect, is rezoned. But ag districts (and the resulting zoning re strictions) are of little value to the fanner without landuse taxation—which taxes land on its current use and not on its potential use. 1 support land-use assessment in theory because it forces all taxpayers to help bear the cost of our scenic meadows, mountains and orchards. But I am not familiar with the fine print of Rappahannock’s current land-use ordinance and can not say if I support all its provisions. However, I pledge that if elected supervisor no application for land use taxation will be made on land owned by my wife. 10. a. Maybe. b. Not now. Today owners of motor vehicles in this county are paying too much in personal property taxes. That rate should be changed (which means reduced) to coincide with the real estate tax: so much per $100 of fair market value. If that change were made, I might favor increasing the license tax to $20. c. This requires some study but I do not now oppose the idea. d. & e. These two together constitute an honesty tax. We had it before and God alone knows how many tractors, plows, bulls and cows were never declared. It didn’t work before and it won’t work again. f. Not if we also have a business license tax. 11. Improvements to the courthouse will satisfy the judges for now, but sooner or later they are going to come back and ask for more space.

Karen Jordan dropped the hall through the hoop IS of 2d times at the charity st rip for a sizzling 90 percent and a new school record fora sophomore.' The Panthers as a team were just one percentage point behind as Donna Atkins managed two of two free throws to bring the squad's mark to Sit percent <21 of 2si. Heavily guarded by the Tigers, Jordan only scored on two of 12 tries from the field but added to her free throws, it amounted to 22 points, enough for the game's high scorer honors. - The Panthers dominated from the start of the home contest, leading 14-9 at the first quarter and then doubling the Tigers’ tally.

With coach Theresa Me Law horn clearing the bench in the fourth.quarter, Prentsville cut the deficit a hit but the Panthers still won easily, 00-46. Adding their names to the list of RCHS scorers were Atkins (seven), Natalie Butler (six), Mo Turner (four) and Connie Campton (two). Butler and Jordan were each credited with three assists. Last Tuesday, it was another district victory as the girls from RCHS downed Manassas Park, 40-25. Jordan again led the panthers in scoring, this time with 17. But along with her she shot less than 50 percent from the free throw line, connecting on only three of seven attempts. The Panthers as a whole hit eight of 19. The Rappahannock girls broke in front and held a two point edge, 12-10, at the first quarter. They stretched it to six, 22-17, at the half and then built a nine point margin, 24-25, at the end of three periods.

Panthers Outscore Owls In Rematch After losing to cross county rival Wakefield earlier in the season, the RCHS Panthers bounced back to take the rematch, 4-3, before an enthusiastic home crowd last Friday. The split leaves both local teams without a clear claim to bragging rights as Rappahannock’s soccer champs for 1983. The Panthers dominated the closing minutes of Fridays game, coming from behind to score three goals. “We were fired up for the last 12 minutes. Our boys started doing what they’ve been taught to do,” said coach Glen Davis. “They played like they know how to play. They played their game instead of the other team’s game—and I loved it!" Vinnie Caporuscio "was the hero of the day for RCHS, earning unofficial MVP honors for two goals and one assist. But it was a team effort that gave the victory to the Panthers. The Rappahannock boys came out flying after a spirit lifting pop rally that featured a costumed black panther (Eugene Grigsby), complete with claws and tail. In the opening 30 seconds, James Dennis took a long pass from Jon McCullough and booted the ball by the Wakefield goalie for a Rappahannock score. The Owls recovered quickly from the shock and revved up the pressure on RCHS goal keeper Bob Baines, pressure that would continue throughout the afternoon. But repeatedly, Baines rose to the challenge, leaping and diving to block the ball from the net. Forward Vinnie Caporuscio got off a couple of shots at the other end of the field but all were wide as Rappahannock’s offense fizzled. Communication stopped, balls were kicked or headed to spots on the field where no yellow jersey before Landis angled a kick from the corner to hit the jackpot. Rappahannock News Photo/D Hutchinson FORWARD VINCE CAPORUSCIO breaks downfield with the ball against a Wakefield de render. waited. The Panthers had problems trapping and controlling the ball as it bounced off soccer cleats and traveled yards away on almost every attempt at a stop. While the Owls played with more intensity and hustle, they failed to translate their efforts into scores. Headers by Todd Lands and David Rowzie went wide, kicks landed on top of the net or off to the side. Awarded four corner kicks within two minutes, Wakefield’s offense managed to get the ball squarely in.front but not in the goal. Each time, Rappahannock’s halfbacks Jon McCullough, Mike DelGrosso and Jim Racer and fullbacks Brian kritz and John McKay turned the scoring thrusts aside. But play centered in the Panthers’ half of the field and each drive ended closer and closer to the net. Goalie Paul Cooper, substituting for injured Bob Baines, stopped several near goals Local Winners At The Plains Representing the Spider Bicycle Club of Rappahannock, Cathy Kiley won the women’s division of the 25 kilometer bicycle race held last Saturday at The Plains in Fauquier County.

For a half hour, the second half was a replay of the first with the action in front of Rappahannock’s goal. Then the Panther offense ignited. Little Walter Frye’s shot at the goal was blocked but Caporuscio controlled the rebound and sent it back in for a score. The pair again combined forces on the next offensive series for the Panthers, dribbling the ball down the field for another Caporuscio drill into the net to be the tally at 3-3. The Owls mounted offensive raids of their own, trying to reclaim the lead, but were turned back at midfield by Lucky McCoy and held off deep in Rappahannock territory by Jim McCullough. At the other end of the field, Caporuscio staked out the right corner as his own, jabbing away repeatedly at the Owls’ defense.

Wakefield Sports Briefs Wakefield’s Junior Varsity Soccer team blanketed Warren County Junior High’s team by a score of 7 Wakefield's Varsity Soccer team nudged past Seton School 2-1 but lost later in the week to the Rappahannock Panthers by a score of 4-3. Wood (Continued from Page 5) accessible to the citizens near Washington. I would support the creation of a clean and safe dumping site, to be managed on a regular basis, somewhere close to Washington. 5. As supervisor I would vote to approve an appropriation for dog pound facilities that meet state standards. We could follow Page County’s example by providing our dog warden with regulation pens for housing strays, food, sources of water and certainly, an incinerator for destroying the dogs that have been put to death. 6. The appointment of governing officials should be handled with great consideration. In each case I would seek input from the people of my district. In the case of the school board appointee. I would try to select a person who had children in the public schools. Jesus Christ said, “Where your treasure is—there will your heart be also.” More of our school board members should have their hearts attuned to the needs of the public schools. 7. I’ve been talking with residents of my district and I’ve been hearing strong opinions on both sides of the tax questions. It’s obvious to me that our current tax structure and assessments need to be examined. If I am elected, I will spend the time between November 8 and January 1 studying taxation. With the knowledge that I have at the present time. I would favor going ahead with the scheduled reassessment. 8. ' Yes. This matter should be handled with much consideration, because the county administrator, in accepting the three areas of responsibility, will have a far-reaching effect on Rappahannock’s future. 9. I plan to study this question. At this time, I don’t have all the information I need to make a commitment. 10. I would approve raising the fee for county stickers from the $15 to $20. Also I would like to make it possible for Rappahannock Citizens to make cash contributions to specific budget areas of their choice: the public schools, the sheriffs department, etc. 11. These questions have thoroughly covered the major issues, but I’d like to add that I support the idea of holding board of supervisors’ meetings in the evening, where the county’s business can be conducted in front of the county’s people. Baldwin (Continued from Page 5) dent prior to stating my position on establishing a specific curriculum for the gifted and talented program. They are the experts in this area. After being presented with evidence of (1) need for capital outlay at the high school, (2) sufficient revenues to finance the capital outlay and (3) and adequate plan for expansion at the high school, I will vote to appropriate necessary funds for capital outlay. 4. I will vote for condemnation of land to provide for a landfill after I am convinced of the following: 1. That the cost of the acquisition can be borne without placing an overly heavy burden on the taxpayers, and 2. That a suitable site has been located, and 3. That a private offer to purchase will not accomplish the same result. Condemnation is, in my opinion, an expensive, time consuming process and a last resort. 5. I would prefer, if possible, to work out an arrangement with Fauquier, Culpeper or another locality to take care of this problem. State standards in this area impose an inappropriate fi nancial burden on small, rural counties like Rappahannock. (5. I would, as I have in the past, solicit input from my constituents prior to filling a vacancy on the school board. The voters of my district are aware of my policy of appointing citizens of diverse backgrounds to fill vacancies on county boards. I do this for a reason and that is to encourage participation in county government by as many different people as possible. Government should include, rather than exclude, people from the decision making process. 7. I will consider the projected cost of a reassessment in 1985 as opposed to a reassessment in 198(5 or 1987, both in terms of the county’s revenue picture and the administrative costs, before I make up my mind on this issue. 8. I will look into the cost of the proposal and solicit input from the zoning administrator, clerk of court, and water and sewer authority before stating my position on this issue. I do not have enough information to make a commitment at this time. 9. I have an open mind on the subject and am willing to listen to different points of view. 1 recognize that cir cumstances change and I am therefore willing to periodically review the pros and cons of the land use tax. 10. I will look into all of these alternative methods of raising revenue. My decision as to each of these questions will be influenced by the county’s fiscal outlook at the time each of these methods are proposed. 11. We will continue to have problems in the areas of education, public finance, zoning and land use. All of these issues involve scarce resources and a need for better services. This calls for a balanced and even handed approach and I feel that)* my record as a fiscal conservative who can relate to and work to benefit people of diverse backgrounds qualifies me to address these problems. Rappahannock County has a reputation for good, solid management of its fiscal affairs. My goal is to continue that policy while, at the same time, • improving the quality of education and other county services. My goal may not be realized overnight; however, I believe that, working together, this county can achieve better quality in education and other areas while minimizing the burden to the taxpayer. “DOC” GODFREY’S 1984 MAZDA PICK-UP TRUCK STANDARD EQUIPMENT INCLUDED alternator, 1,400 lb. payload, 27-38 dUty PRICE INCLUDES FREIGHT and DEALER PREP SUPPLY LIMITED!

Cross Country Remains Unbeaten “We’ve got team unity and the result is team victory,” announced cross country coach Ann Spieker as her RCHS harriers extended their undefeated record in district meets by trouncing Stonewall and Clarke last Wednesday. Scott Keithlev was in his usual position at the front of the pack, finishing the 3.1 mile Clarke course in 18:02. Ronnie Atkins was second in 18:07 and Chris Caperton fourth in 18:19. “Our boys ran strongly. There were only 62 seconds separating the number one and number five runners. This is the kind of finish we need to win the district meet,” the coach noted. Spieker complimented the support that the Panthers continue to give each other, support that is in creasing as the season nears its climax. “Scott and Ronnie ran together for part of the course, encouraging each other. So did Craig Kenyon and Rickie Shaw (who finished sixth and seventh in 19:00 and 19:04). And so did John Denison and David Fishbein. And so did l’at Coffey, John Raney and Jonathan Watson," the coach added. "That's what 1 mean by team unity leading to team victory.” John Dodson covered the 3.1 mile course in 20:3N, Fishbein in 20:4S, Coffey in 21:12, Raney in 21:13 and Watson in 21:21. Todd Williams also finished for Rappahannock, posting a time of 23:04. Karen Iaidwick was tinsecond girl to cross the line, completing the course in 24:06. Denise Eidson finished in 27.47. Final score was Rappahannock 20, Stonewall Jackson and C’larke St. Eleven Rappahannock boys came in before the first C’larke County runner. "The team is looking forward to the district meet on October 27 over this same course,” coach Spieker re- | ported, predicting that the ' Panthers will take the Hull Run crown. "Competition in the regionals and the state is beginning to look like it will be a contest between Buffalo Gap. Rappahannock and a late blooming 1 .may team." Regionals this year will be held at Woodberry Forest at J p.m., November 2. State finalists will race over the Piedmont Community College course in Charlottesville on November 12. Owls Defeat RMA For Homecoming Wakefields first homecoming sdecer game was a success for the Owls as they downed Randolph Macon’s Yellow Jackets, 3-2, on October 8. The two teams played to a 2-2 tie earlier in the season. In the opening minutes of the rematch, the opponents tested each other, splitting the action at both ends of the field. Midway through the half, right wing Todd Landis scored for the Owls on an assist from Larrv Tarr to end the period at 1-6. The Wakefield’s offense was ready for action in the second half. Halfback Gaston de Hearn fed the ball to forward Russel Rowzie who booted the ball past the goal to net his second score of the year. Rozie later dribbled the ball the length o! the field to score again, giving Wakefield a H-0 lead. The Yellow .Jackets answered with two goals to narrow the margin but tight defensive play by fullbacks .John Vanderzon, .Joey Tisinger, Dave Fawcett and Ron Stern and halfbacks Matt Venderwoude, I.arry Tarr and Gaston de Hearn stopped the rally and saved the win for Wakefield. : VOTE■ PETER LUKE For Commonwealth Attorney PROTECT RAPPAHANNOCK "I will enforce the law for the benefit of the land and its people.''

Fire Drill cl'M* “One death is easier to take than the whole family. You get out.” Castlcton lire fighter .Judy Hitt tells her children. Hitt, who is vice president of the Castleton volunteer fire department, says fire drills are held regularly at her home, but the lack of education about fire safetv in Rappahannock County hit her hard when she was substitute teaching a fourth grade class at KCKS and only one child in the class knew what to do if his clothes caught fire. .Jimmy knew that he should roll around on the ground with his hands on his face. "I can't imagine parents not training their kids," Hitt remarked later. At her house, the children are trained to get out of bed when the smoke detector goes off, go right outside and wait by the mailbox for the rest of the family. They can literally do it with their eyes closed. "They're half asleep and outside before they know it, they're so well drilled." she says. Hitt adds that the majority of fire deaths occur at night while everyone is asleep. Sleepers' senses are so dulled, they are not aware the fire has started. They usually die from smoke inhalation before the fire reaches them. Hitt says people should remember to stay low in a burning house. Since the smoke and heat rise, the best escape is * made by crawling along the floor with one’s mouth covered with a cloth. If the bedroom door is hot, the fire has already reached,, Jthe ball way and people should jump out the window. “A broken leg can be fixed,” she tells the young ones, “but a dead person can't be put back together again." Don’t Look For Others A fire isn’t the time for unselfishness — Hitt says it s every man, woman and child for themselves. She tells her children to get out of the house first and go to the neighbors,to call the fire department. They don't wait around inside looking for other family members or go back inside the burning building to rescue missing persons. They wait on the side of the road until the fire volunteers get there with the proper equipment to search for someone who might still be inside. The odds are two to one that fire will break out sometime during the lifetime of the average householder and Hitt says this time of the year families should be especially cautious. When the cold weather returns, fires start in chimneys that haven’t been used in a year. Woodstoves The renewed popularity of woodstoves in recent years has led to an alarming increase in fires due to careless installations and misuse. Area extension agents and fire volunteers offer inspections, pamphlets and advice on how to select and install a new stove, how to prepare an old one for another year's use and how to start a fire. Choosing the right wood is important, too. Dry and well-seasoned wood minimizes creosote formation and also offers the most effi WE HAVE WRITTEN A BOOK ABOUT YOU!

Storing firewood neatly and away from the house helps prevent building fires. All chimneys and stoves should be carefully cleaned and repaired during the fall and continuously checked during the cold season for creosote and soot buildup. Firefighters say it is worth the money to call a professional chimney sweep. Do-ityourselfers can damage chimney linings, causing an additional fire hazard. This is a good time of the year to learn the proper operations of a kerosene heater as well. It should have been properly stored at the end of last year’s heating season with a clean cabinet, drip tray and strainers and a clean and empty tank. There should be no carbon deposits on the wick. before using the heater, the automatic shutoff should be checked. A simple test consists of turning the heater on and then giving it a sharp jolt. If this doesn’t trigger the automatic shutoff, it needs repair. Every home should be checked for adequate ventilation. In fully weatherized houses additional ventilation is needed. The consumer product safety commission recommends 10 square inches of opening to the outside for each 10,000 BTUs of heater size. This can be adequately achieved by opening a standard window by 'A inch. The heater should be placed at least 36 inches away from draperies or other combustible materials and in a spot where pets and people are not likely to brush against it. The heater should be cool before removing the fuel tank which should be filled outside the house. A little room should be left in the tank to allow for fuel expansion after the tank is returned to the warm house. Only grade IK “white” kerosene should be used. Other grade fuels cause irritating sulfur dioxide gas and other assorted hearth and safety hazards. Gasoline and “camp stove” fuels should never be used in a kerosene heater. They will explode. Fire safety should be of constant concern to families. Fire officials say 6,500 people die each year in the U.S. in home fires. Every day 1.500 homes catch fire somewhere in the nation. Rappahannock’s fire volunteers hope no deaths and Fun Fair Seventh grade teacher Lynne Baines says the Halloween Fun Fair will be held Saturday, October 29 from 10-5. The traditional event is held in the RCES auditorium each year to raise money for the seventh grade trip. Students will go to Richmond, Williamsburg, Jamestown, Cape Henry and the Dismal Swamp this spring, the trip paid for in part with money from this and other fundraisers. The class sold peanuts during the House Tour last weekend and plan to offer family portraits next month. The pictures will be ready by December 16 and 17, in time for Christmas. property damage will occur here this winter. “Get out of the house fast and call for help,” is Hitt’s advice during an emergency. The Culpeper dispatcher (825-2222) contacts the various Rappahannock units. Hitt suggests people not try to be heroes before help arrives. “You can always rebuild a house but not a human being.” School Menus Sursum Corda October 24-28 Monday Grilled cheese sandwiches, baked sweet potatoes, celery sticks, applesauce, milk.

Rappanannock Journal •Farm •Business •Garden •Rural Life Apple Butter Time Rappahannock Lions Club president Paul Nichols says the club spent two weekends at the Keezletown Canneries near Harrisonburg boiling apples and even burning their noses in preparation for the current annual apple butter sale. The Lions prepared 752 quarts—that’s 188 gallons of the sweet stuff using a secret recipe from apple butter chairman Raymond Johnson. Apple stand chairman Carson Johnson says the Lions sold about half of this year’s supply at their stand in front of the new school bus shop building last weekend. “It was a pretty good weekend,” Johnson said, "Very successful.” The sale continues this weekend Saturday and Sunday from 10-5. Besides the famous apple butter, the Lions sell pecans, pumpkins, apples, Indian corn and brooms. The brooms are another annual fundraiser with which the Lions finance projects to help the deaf and blind. Johnson says the brooms are distributed among members to sell to their neighbors. They eosf $4.50. Apple butter is $3.50 per quart. After the apple sale, whatever apple butter is left will go to members to sell in the community, according to Johnson. He says the Lions have regular customers throughout the county who buy the apple butter by the case for gift-giving during the Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons. This year’s Lions Club leaders took office July 1. They are president Paul Nicholas; vice presidents Douglas Baumgardner, David L. Konick and Fanning Baumgardner; treasurer Frank S. Gannon; secretary Howard Holschuh, assistant secretary Sid Mank; Lion Tamer George Sharp; and Tail Twister Maurice Herndon. flattie And 1 rees Don’t Go Together “Woodlands make poor pasture” says Rappahannock forester William C. Vernam. “Cattle and trees are similar to alcohol and driving, they don’t go together”. Research shows that nine or more acres of woodland are needed to support an animal unit while two acres of good pasture will do the same job. When drought conditions prevail there is a tendency for landowners to turn livestock into protected woodland areas, destroying in a short period of time what nature has created over a long period of time. Alternative management options should be considered before allowing animals to graze woodland areas with their detrimental effect on woodland ecology and environment. Grazing livestock not only bark and wound the roots and trunks of trees at or near ground level, opening the way for insect and disease attack, but they also browse and trample young seedlings to death, killing the forest of the future.

Thornhill says most fanners haven’t started combining yet. but they should send silage samples to the state. "It can’t hurt to get it tested,” she says, point ing out that the service offered by the state department of agriculture is free. VDAC'S commissioner S. Mason ('arbaugh reports the state survey on 1983 corn indicates higher than expected levels of aflatoxin. The subManson Elected Ellen C. Manson, a former Washington resident who now resides in Dabney, Virginia, has been elected commissioner on resources and policies by the Virginia Nurses’ Association, a professional organization for registered nurses. While living in Rappahannock, both Manson and her husband, Charlie, were active in the town of Washington’s volunteer rescue and fire squads. She ran unsuccessfully for the seat representing Hampton District on the board' of supervisors in 1979. stance is a toxic by-product of a fungus infection that is aggravated by hot dry weather. The mold affects grain products, but not usually soybeans, sa>s Thornhill. She says it is "very important” for corn producers to have their feed tested, adding that those who buy feed from other states with similar weather conditions should also have it tested. Thornhill says feed samples can be brought to the county extension office to be forwarded to the state laboratory. For accurate testing, ten pounds of shelled eorn should be submitted. The Food and Drug Administration guidelines allow 20 parts per billion Ippbi of aflatoxin to be present in corn for human consumption and animal feeds. Corn in a range of 20-100 ppb may be used for mature non-lactating animals. Current FDA provisions prohibit interstate shipment of corn exceeding 20 ppb. Early results of the VDACS survey which started in September showed trends towards higher levels of aflatoxin than normal. Of 47 samples tested last month, eight con taint'd no aflatoxin. 17 writ at levels less than JO pph, nine in the ran^e of JO 1(K pph and Id samples ex eeeded 1(K) ppb. The survey is expect ec to be completed late the month.

—Rappahannock News Photo/D Hutchinson ARTIST AT POSE — Linda Heimstra, Rappahannock artist who has a shop in the town of Washington, created the new art work for the Rappahannock News’ community correspondents’ columns. Introducing The Artist The new sillouette art introduced with the community correspondents’ columns this week is the work of Linda Heimstra. She has created a bushel of peaches for Woodville, rolling farm fields for Flint Hill, friendly cows for Castleton, apples for Sperrvville, the court house for Washington, Barren’s Store for Viewtown, the famous ferris wheel at the firemen's carnival grounds for Chester Gap, the flag hoisted at the post office for Boston, the landmark church on the highway for Amissville. “I tried to capture the essence of Rappahannock County in the little drawings,” the artist explained. Heimstra operates an art business in Washington next door to the Rappahannock News. She creates distinctive hex signs that are tacked onto barns scattered across the county. Linda gives art lessons to aspiring young painters after school. She also does farm signs, sketches for stationary and cards, hand painted furniture — "just about anything,” she said with a grin and shrug, adding that she’s a struggling artist trying to lift a career off the ground. Linda’s shop — Homestream Designs — has been opened since this summer. The name is a translation from the Dutch of her last name, Heimstra. A resident of the county for the past six years, she’s launching a second career simultaneously with her sign shop. She divides her time between painting and rehearsals of the Modern Tribal Orchestra, a new local band that features Linda, Julie Coon and Cathy Kiley on vocals, Bill Abernathy and Vincent Day on guitars, Steve Lann on bass, Mitch Hostetter on tamberine and Steve Hostetter on drums. The group has attracted an enthusiastic circle of fans after its performance at the 4th of July costume ball sponsored by the Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community. Bits & Pieces Congressman Stan Parris has joined the list of political and semi-political luminaries who have made Rappahannock their home, at least for the weekends. The conservative Republican may put the county on the political map with his candidacy for governor of Virginia. **** The wonders of modern technology or the more advanced we get, the behinder we drop: These new portable telephones that look like walkie-talkies are popping up all over the place, even in the little town of Washington which now boasts at least two. But there’s one problem: Earthman keeps getting all of Charlie Tompkins’ calls. So much for state of the art communication, **** Somebody’s trying to tell someone something: The husband of a Rappahannock News staffer was enough of a believer two months ago to order two play-off tickets at Memorial Stadium and two tickets to see the Birds play in the World Series. But Dame Fortune didn’t smile on this display of faith. The tickets ended up being for Baltimore’s game one with the Sox and game one with the Phillies. Sports fans know that the Orioles swept to the world championship after losing just a single game in each series. Sports fans will recall also that both of those 2-1 losses were in the rain. Sports fans will also remember that the defeats came in game one against the Sox and game one against the Phillies. It has been discovered that Rappahannock moviegoers prefer lemonade, iced tea and homemade cookies at the concession stand. This switch from the more traditional popcorn and fruit grum drops bought at city cinemas was documented over the summer during brisk business at the lobby at the Gay Street Theater, according to RAAC president Sidney Gottlieb. Out Of The Attic —Photo Courtesy of Mrs. Franklin Duncan READY, AIM — Josephine Hawkins was called from class by Mr. Winfrey, principal of the old Sperryville High School, to pose with the cannon that was parked at the front door. The photograph was » taken in 1937.

Keyser attended -News From Castleton By MICHELE MAY Rappahannock News Correspondent 937-4031 Did you know that Judy Hitt has lived in Castleton for six years ami Saturday was the first time she ever went on the House Tour? She went with Tracy, Aunt Michele, Sarah McNemar from Culpeper and her daughter Patty Kilcullen from Richmond. The first stop was at the May estate in Amissville where no one was very well received by That Cat. (When Tracy asked if he bites, scaredy cat ran and hid in the closet.) Joe McCullough was home for the weekend from James Madison University. He says he’s studying political science there in preparation for pre-law. He didn’t think much of the thunderstorm Thursday night, but otherwise, he had a pleasant time visiting Castleton. A pleasant time at the Castleton fire house was had by the group gathered there Friday for a record hop and covered dish supper - the second in what Judy promised last month as regular parties "for the young and young at heart." Youngsters there included Teddie and Vince Hannon, Donna and Gene Fisher, Jeannie Lipp and her five children, Stu Hitt. Kandy Hitt, Kevin Lewis, Bruce Frye, Mitch. Judy, Kerrie and Tracy. Kerrie has been hustling like a real tycoon lately with those seventh grade fundraisers. They get to go to Williamsburg if they make enough money. So she’s been pushing poster-calendars to all of Castleton — Aunt Michele bought one with baby unicorns. If you don’t have one, you’d better order now. Anyway, Kerrie was fresh off the leg braces that followed her ten-speed accident last month and was hobbling around Washington all day Saturday with the rest of her class gamely trying to sell peanuts, but they were a little upset by the brush-off they got from several town residents. They sold most of their peanuts though, and Lynne Baines says they’ll take the rest to the fun fair. They were real good. We ate some while waiting to get into the dried flower sale.

But they were all nearly gone by noon. Within an hour after the doors opened, people had glommed up most of them and by Sunday there were only 50 left for the second day of the tour. Aunt Michele cheated. She was at choir practice Thursday night casing the joint and located that Blue Willow cream pitcher with the blue bachelor buttons under one of the tables. On Saturday she could go right to it — nobody else had a chance. If you need a reason tor going to church, we suppose that’s one good one. (You also hear a lot of news, like how Leslie King had her new baby Sunday morning right while her husband was supposed to be teaching Sunday school — “Jenks” said it was okay to miss one week though — under the circumstances.) ’Til next week, remember to keep a sense of humor in your love life, for as Aunt Michele says, “It isn’t who you love or how you love that counts, but only that you love.” the twenty-seventh annual Rappahannock House Tour on Sunday.

By MICHELE MAY Rappahannock News Staff Writer Summer was supposed to stop at 10:42 a.m. on Friday. September 23, but suddenly on Thursday night people were wearing winter w.oolies. By Friday morning, the frost was on the pumpkin, the automobile windshield and the typewriter keys at work. Rappahannock citizens were simply shivering. It sort of made them think about setting by a cord of wood, shopping for new winter robes and pulling out the old thermal underwear. It was a good time to make the bed. Piling on something like 22 quilts to make for good snuggling. It was that sort of weather, but where were the quilts? Rappahannock News reporters went out in quest of the best. Country Heritage proprietress Nan Thomasson offered to redesign one’s entire bedroom. Her crafts shop in the Clopton house on Main Street, Washington, specializes in custom designed log cabin quilts in traditional barnraising and fields and furrows patterns. Nan said each quilt takes seven fabrics to make; and extra cloth can be used to coordinate curtains, wall hangings, throw pillows and pillow’ cases. At her home. Nan’s bedroom was planned around a peach and pink quilt with companion rose colored curtains. She used “crayola" rainbow colors in the kids’ room. Nan explained that selection of the fabric takes as long as the actual construction of the quilt. She said the part of quilting that’s an art is gathering and choosing the particular fabrics from two color schemes that “w ill walk well together." Customers are sent seven swatches of material in their color scheme before the quilt is built. The seven samples are chosen according to very special rules. Each quilt usually has three dark colors, three pastels and a neutral. A red square in the center represents the heart of the home. The patterns are blended together to form the light —Rappahannock News Photo- M Ma\ I, Lucy Thornhill takes autumn days to ready a and dark paths of the quilt. The light one signifies the successes, five harvests, and joys in store for the family. Nan explained. The dark portion shows the trails, tribulations, droughts and disasters in store. Nan said it's exciting to watch the top of the quilt grow once the patterns are pulled together. The entire process from the time the customer names his favorite colors 'til he makes the bed with his new quilt takes between six to eight weeks. Nan said. A person doesn't need to be an excellent seamstress to actually make the quilt, nan added. Hers are machine stitched. The tedious part is assembling and attaching the bottom. Nan pointed out that in Colonial times, teenagers made quilts for their hope chests. Quilting was almost considered child’s play in those days. When quilting bees went out of style, something else left society. Nan thinks. She and her friend Joanne Topper, a crafts supplier for her shop, actually gets together to make the quilts. "It's time we share together that is very nice. It’s very therapeutic," she said. “We solve the problems of the world." She smiled a little mischieviously. “What President Reagan needs is a quilting bee," she added. Samples of Nan and Joanne's work graced the antique beds at Country Heritage. They try to keep four quilts on hand at all times. A pretty blue and green one currently on display, called "Grandma's Mistake", is not for sale. Nan’s saving it for far-inthe-future grandchildren. She said she won't sell it because the paths of good and ill dead end instead of going across the blanket as the traditional fields and furrows pattern should. She admitted it's a designer’s original, but said that isn't what she was trying to do. On the double bed was a quilt in peach and brown ghades, a popular combination. The other favorite, dark and light blue, is demonstrated in a quilt hangingon a rack beside it. everywhere were clustered the I want to thank everybody that supported my fundraiser Friday, Oct. 7; especially the people who worked so hard to make the event possible!

Quilts made to order or bought from the floor at the store range from $150 for twin bed size to $300 and up for extra long king size. Baby crib quilts and throw pillows are in the neighborhood of $20. Already known around the nation for their Rappahannock quilts, Nan said she expects an increased demand after she and husband Jim issue their mail order catalogue. Even without it, her handiwork travels far. The last quilt she made went to Alexandria; the one before is in Florida. Meanwhile, at Thorn Ridge Farm, 87-year-old Lucy Thornhill was making a crocheted canopy and spread for a big old four poster bed one of her friends had bought. “I’ve done the worst part. I've made more than two hundred of these,” she said showing an ecru colored square in the "one o'clock" pattern. She needed to crochet together 272 and the canopy would be complete. Then she could start on the spread. Four finished quilt'tops also awaited her attention. They were spoken for, she said, a couple of them for as long as four years. And so she would sell them for fouryear-old prices—$50 if the customer had furnished the cloth, around $125 for the rest. Soon she would be dragging the old quilting frame out to the porch—it belonged to her husband’s mother a hundred years ago. Once she got everything set up, she could finish a quilt in a couple of weeks. “Your fingers get raw. You can’t do it every day,” she explained. And so she would alternate with all the other projects she had going. She sells bonnets and the most delicate knot stitched snowflakes to hang on Christmas trees ($1 for the big ones, 75c for the small ones.) She also recently sold a super-sized crocheted lace tablecloth to a Charlottesville woman for $150. She leafed through her dogeared book of customers’ addresses and phone numbers. Three more had ordered quilts and offered to pay in advance. “I told them they could pay when they’re done” she said. “They may not get finished.” Mrs. Thornhill can make a quilt-top in one summer. She makes it from calico remnants and bleached muslin. Some of her favorite patterns are the Lone Star, tulip, Dresden plate, Jacob’s Ladder, and the Star of Bethlehem. "I made it before I knew its name,” she said of the latter. “I called it a double diamond. I just like to quilt.” She taught a class two years ago at the extension office but found herself learning as much from her students as they did from her. They brought in their quilt tops and showed her what they had been doing. “You think you know a little something, but when you get out you find out you’re not so smart,” she said of her teaching experience. It was pretty obvious Mrs. Thornhill wasn’t quilting to make money. She just seemed to like to keep her hands busy. She remembered the comment of a friend in Culpeper who quilts, a career woman. “When you come home weary from listening to all that jabber, you quilt for half an hour and you feel rested,” Mrs. Thornhill promised. On the road to Luray, old times have one piece of advice regarding quilts: buy cotton, it’s warmer than nylon. Those crazy quilts at the souvenir stands display some of the most flashy color combinations around and there are chenille bedspreads to go with them embroidered with peacocks and tigers and other exotic creatures. At the end of the tourist season, the last quilt could be bargained below $50 in some places, but these are machine manufactured and sometimes synthetic fabrics. Handmade old quilts can usually be bought by the stack at a good price at estate sales.

- Gilkey ((. ontinued trom rage <i) he an asset to the people and the county as a whole. 9. I am not wild about land use taxation. But I do support Agricultural and Forestal Districts. I believe that persons in Agricultural Districts make a commitment to the rest of the land and lot holders that they want to keep this county rural and agricultural. As we know, there is a roll back tax for anyone getting out of these districts. But land use has no such roll back tax. Another thing that people don't know is that there are several subdivisions in this county that are presently being farmed under land use. I feel that if these were in Agricultural Districts, they would be more apt to stay agricultural because of the roll back tax. 10. As for this question, 1 would like to see more figures on which would have the most reaching effect. 11. At this moment I cannot think of any major issues that you haven't covered.

Warrenton faf Metro: 471-4308 -Threats, Contradictions Mark Hearing (Continued from Page 1) Virginia’s uniform building code mandates floors of “R-2” fire ratings in mixed used buildings such as restaurant/hotel, according to Labovitz. He asked Hinckley if he thought The Inn’s existing stairs are dangerous. The architect said yes. “Why haven’t you mentioned that before?” asked lawyer John Labovitz, Labovitz’s brother. “You didn’t bring it up!” Hinckley shot back. “We want to have a straight forw'ard public hearing without any sarcasm, threats or meanness, okay?” cautioned the mayor. John Labovitz asked Hinckley why he didn’t first secure approval from the town council before proceeding with the revised design for The Inn’s addition. The i architect answered that Lynch had been assured by the mayor that he would handle things administratively. “At no time did I give anybody my permission to increase the number of rooms administratively. I say that flatly and absolutely,” Miller announced. There was no response from Lynch to his assertion. “The building was a turkey... completely out of scale with the town...It had zero distinction,” Hinckley resumed, describing the changes the addition would bring. “We want the character on the outside to have the same relation to the character on the inside.” He noted that the addition will raise the roof by four feet and extend the building by 13 feet. Addressing the question of adherance to the town’s zoning ordinance, Hinckley said: "Mr. Miller says the conversation did not take place. I'm told that it did take place. So the variance was not an issue." “Can a hardship be granted under the Virginia Code for financial reasons?” asked Miller. “Yes, it can...under certain circumstances,” Dickey replied. Roof repairs “have to be done and they have to be done this way (building over top with a new roof) and it can’t be done without the additional revenue from the (guest) rooms,” Dickey said. For those reasons, to deny O’Connell’s and Lynch’s variance request would amount to a “hardship approaching confiscation,” Dickey argued. Building Itself A Hardship “The building itself is a hardship because of its size and its scale," commented Peter Kramer. He described i the renovation plans as “a practical approach to space” and maintained that the proposal doesn’t seem to damage anybody. “It has no negative impact on the neighborhood or the neighbors,” Kramer said, adding that the four foot jump in roof level is insignificant compared to the scale of the building. “Quality craftsmanship and quality design should be encouraged and not discouraged in this community,” he concluded. Charles Eldred recalled that the idea of an Architectural Review Board for the town was summarily dismissed by the council members because they felt that citizens weren’t interested in having the design and decoration of their homes and businesses controlled by government. “It seems we’ve come a long way from that.” Eldred described The Inn as “a thing of beauty... It’s not unsightly in any manner." By contrast, he continued, the town still has an existing junkyard that’s been in violation of Washington's zoning laws since 1981. The yard was given one year to comply and hasn’t yet, he added. “And no one’s the least bit concerned.” “Some people are of the opinion that we wish the town wouldn’t approve the expansion of The Inn...The Disparities Studied (Continued from Page 1) out rate in Rappahannock County during the 1981-82 school year was 3.5 percent compared to the state average of 4.9 percent. Rappahannock ranked 102 with the lowest and in this case the best being Falls Church at 129 with 1.0 percent dropout rate. In reacting to the study, VEA research director Ralph Shotwell noted, "the accident of being born in a particular place may result in a child receiving an education that is demonstrably unequal to that of a child born in another locality.” Shotwell called for a refreshed financial commitment to education in the various localities, noting that a recent decline in Virginia’s funding for schools occurred at just the time when other states in the nation were increasing thenlevel of support. U nemployment (Continued from Page 1) actively participating in Rappahannock’s work force, 2,597 of them employed. By August the total work force had decreased to 2,581 with 2,424 employed. The VEC reports show 151 unemployed in Rappahannock in July, 157 in August.

The lowest rates were in Fauquier (3.7 percent) and Culpeper (4.9 percent). “Planned seasonal short term lay-offs” were blamed for the higher unemployment in Orange (8.5 percent) and Madison (12.1 percent). For the same month the state rate was 5.3 percent (down from 5.7) and the national was 9.2 (down from 9.4). VEC spokesman add that the consumer price index continued a rising trend. To date the price index for all urban consumers was up 2.6 percent in 1983, with surveyed items costing exactly three times what they did in 1967.

But I ask that you apply in order to meet the law.” Not Relevant Dickey maintained that the violations cited by Labovitz aren’t relevant to The Inn’s variance request. “They are separate matters to be dealt with separately... We’re not going to get into all the numerous violations he (Labovitz) has committed. They’re not relevant either.” Dickey held that the council has no evidence of anyone opposed to the variance request. Labovitz argued that The Inn’s representatives have shown no hardship at all. “They might be able to but they didn’t. So there’s no basis for a variance and we do object,” he said, requesting that all structures on the restaurant’s property be brought into compliance with state and local codes. “If The Inn is made to conform, to be fair, you’d better be prepared to do the same for the rest of the hom|?s and businesses in the town,” a woman in the audience advised the council. “Including junk yards!” added Charles Ehired, getting the final word of the public hearing.
