About 12 pther students also are team members. • What Would You Do? The possibility of an emergency, either man made or natural, faces people everywhere at all times. Emergencies can come suddenly with little of no warning. What should a person do if a wind with hurricane force whips through Chester Gap and across the county? What can be done on a cold night if a family is confronted by a raging chimney fire? These question* andmoreare answered in a pamphlet now being provided for free by the Rappahannock County Office of Emergency Services (OES). The neatly condensed pamphlet tells the who, what, where, when, how and why of emergencies in a format that’s easy to read. Pamphlets are available at Rappahannock National Bank and Farmers and Merchants Bank of Flint Hill; the Rappahannock Social Services Department and the Sheriffs Department; the Rappahannock County Library and the Rappahannock News. For more information on the pamphlets or OES, contact OES Coordinator Col. D. C. Knuepfer at 675-3744 or OES Deputy Bob Mahlbacher at 675-3144. “Be prepared. After all, it wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark,” Col. Knuepfer notes. 1 What to do In an EMERGENCY i:nkii«i:.vy i.\- formation • Cabbage Patch Craze Here The Cabbage Patch Kids craze again is sweeping the country just in time for the holidays, and Rappahannock County afo> is being brushed by the phenomenon. Cabbage Patch Kids, registered and manufactured by COLECO, are dolls that normally retail between $29 and $36 "if you can get them,” says Frances Foster Short, a former Rappahannock resident who sells Cabbage Patch Kids when she has some to sell. t The problem is few people can get them, and stores that should have the dolls have long lists of back orders instead. Thus, the reality of supply and demand—-and what that does to prices—has become the rule of the day. At an auction in Page County last Sunday, with Rappahannock residents reportedly attending, four Cabbage Patch Kids sold—for $97.60 each. Higher prices have been reported, but not confirmed. According to Short, the current craze extends to other dolls, too, particularly Barbie dolls, manufactured by Mattel, with the date of manufacture and “Barbie” stamped on the doll’s rear. How widespread is the doll-collecting craze? According to Short, even actor John Wayne was an avid collector. Dolls rank number two in collector popularity, second only to trains, according to a recent report. —Rappakaaaock New* Ffcotn/Jaa Hcddteatoa Cabbage Patch Kids are fun if you’re fortunate enough to have one, like Ashleigh Cannon of Castleton. I On Proposed Landfill... * '? • ; Citizens’Group Forms By JANE BANGLEY t Rappahannock Nam Staff Writer The decision reached by the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors OB November 5 to condemn 138 acres of land to create a county landfill has led, to the creation of a group of citizen* concerned about the proposed location.* More than 50 people have formed the Concerned Citizens of Rappahannock County (CCRC) in an effort to find an* other location for the landfill. The proposed landfill site is off of Route 621, and the members of CCRG are concerned about the impact a land* fill may have on the environment and, land value in the area. The group maintains that the Covington and Rush Rivers would be adversely affected by the landfill The group pointed oat in a news.. —Rippuh—nock New» Pboto/Jnc Bm&tf The present landfill is privately operated on land owned by Clifton Clark near Woodville. Mease that accessibility to the site is limited at present by Route 621’s narthe fact that the road is inland 621’s curves and hills. The RC also contends that $185,000 is much for the county to spend on the ' when 138 acres is not needed for a The CCRC has met twice,and has to employ legal counsel, to use counsel in property law, and the environment, and to rk with state waste management ofi The land proposed for use as a pndfill is owned by Samuel Stern and 9aniel MargoUs, Washington, D.C. atys, who refused to sell to the ty under the terms offered.

The county frould have had the right to go an the ;y and make the necessary tests determine the site's suitability for a Margolis and Stem, who could not reached for comment, turned down that offer, which led to the Board’s decision to condemn the land. Commonwealth’s Attorney Luke had not filed the condemnation suit as of last week, and he said thfct he had not decided about the best course to take in the matter of acquiring the right to go on the property. Access to the property has to be obtained before the tests for suitability (Continued on Page 10) Bow Hunter , —Kjjyh—ocfc Ncw» Photo/Jon Hndrilmon Professional bow hunter Tom Flemming bagged this WApound gobler in Gid Brown Hollow last Friday using a 74pound Golden Eagle bow manufactured by Coleman.

Saltonstall Files Two By JANE BANGLEY Rappahannock News SUIT Writer Patricia Saltonstall of Points of View Farm in Flint Hill has filed two separate suits against Diane and Roger . Kidwell, also of Flint Hill. The suits were filed on November 7. Both Buits refer to problems between Saltonstall and the Kidwells regarding property owned by both parties in the Lindgren Whaley tract. The tract is a subdivision, and Saltonstall owns lots F, G, and H, while the Kidwells own lots A and E. In both suits, Saltonstall states that a fifty foot right of way through the subdivision was granted by the deed to the landholders, and that on September 14, 1982 she wrote the Kidwells informing them of her intention to widen and improve the roadway. Saltonstall explained in the letter the need to “monitor the valuable cattle grazing on her property accessed by the right of way, and further, she requested that the defendants remove posts, trees, and a cattle guard which they had placed in the right of way.” Saltonstall states in the suits that she requested that the obstructions be removed by October 15 so that work could be done before “wet November weather set in,” and that she invited the Kidwells to meet with her to discuss the improvements. The Kidwells hired a lawyer “who immediately threatened litigation if she went forward with the plumed improvements, despite plaintiffs (Saltonstall’s) express right to improve and use the right of way.” Saltonstall continued to try to communicate with the Kidwells about the improvements, according to the Saltonstall suits. Saltonstall’s counsel informed the Kidwells on November 8, 1982 that the work would begin on the road the next day. On November 9, Ranee Spellman, foreman of Points of View Farm, began bulldozing the roadbed, and was shot and killed by Diane Kidwell. Kidwell was indicted for murder, and found not guilty by reason of self-defense in October 1983. On the same day of Spellman’s death, the Kidwells filed a Bill of Complaint in Circuit Court which enjoined or prevented Saltonstall from improving the road. The court ruled on January 30,1984 that the Kidwells “had no (Continued on Page 11) School Board Approves Architectural Contract ay JAI^L I Rappahannock News Staff Writer A contract with the architectural firm of Smithey and Boynton was approved by the Rappahannock County School Board on Tuesday, November 13. The contract is for the high school’s expansion project, and was approved with the fee understanding of $95,000. The land survey of the high school being done by Fanning Baumgardner may be completed by the end of next week, said Superintendent Robert Estabrook, now that an architectural firm has been decided upon. Estabrook reported an increase in the insurance premium that was expected from the insurance firm of Dejamette and Paul of Richmond. “We had asked DeJamette and Paul to give us a figure of our premiums for this year, and the figure we were given was $16,000 and you’ll note that they are not misremembering or denying that, but they are now quoting a very different figure,” said Estabrook. The firm raised its premium from $16,000 to $21,000, and the reason given for the increase was that premiums are rising now. The Board is in its second year of a three-year contract with Dejamette and Paul, and the firm handles most of the insurance needs of the school sys tern. The Board decided to have the contract reviewed and to have Estabrook look into the matter further before the payment of the premium ia approved. Estabrook reported that the elementary school’s roof repairs are moving ahead. He said that all of the rooms in the north wing of the building are covered by the new roof, and that replacement of stained ceiling tiles will begin by the end of next week. About 400 tiles will have to be replaced in the entire building when the roof is completed. An update was heard by the Board on the gifted and talented program, and Estabrook told the Board that a workshop held on November 12 had helped to dispel some of the teachers’ questions. He also reported that 60 requests were sent out to people in the community to become resource people for the program, and that 20 affirmative replies had been received. Student testing for the program will begin soon. In executive session, the Board confirmed a previous action on a request by a family for exemption from compulsory attendance, and denied a non-resident request for attendance. (Continued on Page 10)

Term Day Held In Rappahannock By JANE BANGLEY »M—h—»r> Ntra 9Ug Wrttor Rappahannock Circuit Court Judge William Shore Robertson heard a variety of cases during Rappahannock’s term day on Monday, November 12. An habitual offender case was heard, and there was a surprise announcement by Jeffrey Lee Fincham. Fincham, who escaped last week from the Rappahannock County Jail, was to be sentenced Monday on a breaking and entering charge. Fincham had pled guilty to the charge, and an agreement had been reached between his counsel, Doug Baumgardner, and Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke as to his sentence. When Judge Robertson asked Fincham if he agreed to the terms of the agreement, however, Fincham said that he did not. He said that he wanted to withdraw his plea of guilty to the charge, and he wanted a new trial. “The only reason I pled guilty to the charge was that they told me that if I didn’t that I’d get another 40 years if I was found guilty,” Fincham said. Fincham said that he was not guilty of the breaking and entering charge or of any of the other charges that he has already been sentenced for in other counties. Fincham has received 36 years to be served in the state penitentiary for crimes he committed in Warren County and Frederick County. Commonwealth’s Attorney Luke objected to Fincham’s changing his mind at such a late date. “I think that this is only an attempt on Mr. Fincham’s part to delay Ids being turned over to state authorities,” Luke said. Judge Robertson continued the case until December 6. Judge Robertson also issued an order on Monday declaring David Allen Nichols an habitual offender. Nichols avoided being declared an habitual offender in August under an agreement that he would enroll and attend various substance abuse programs. Judge Robertson found that Nichols had not begun the courses when he should have, and on that basis declared Nichols an habitual offender. As an habitual offender, Nichols loses all privileges to drive for 10 years. During that time, if he is caught driving he would be guilty of a felony with a mandatory sentence of a year in jail. Nichols could get his license bade - in five years if a review of his case shows that he has had no problesoe with substance abuse and has completed substance abuse programs. The Division of Motor Vehicles declares a person to be a habitual offender if he or she has had at least three driving while intoxicated offenses or other felonies involving a vehicle, or at least 12 minor offenses such as speeding.

Kenneth Robinson (RVa./7th) joined several other dignitaries last week to help the Town of Berryville dedicate its new $1 million water treatment plant. The facility cape a $2.4 million improvement program begun about four years ago. The town acted after its source of drinking water in the mountains went dry and its two wells were found to be contaminated. The sparkling treatment plant, four miles south of town, draws water from the Sheandoah River to supply the 300,000 gallons used daily by 950 connections. The plant is capable of treating as much as 900,000 gallons on a daily basis. A $1.1 million grant from the Farmers Home Administration and a $1.25 million loan from the same agency provided most of the capital for the venture. By a 3-1 margin, town voters approved a bond referendum in 1982 to repay the loan.

She was upset enough to begin a petition to send to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requesting that someone be sent to Washington to determine the cause of the problems and how to solve them. The petition, which will also be sent to Washington’s Town Council, asks that action be taken to stop radio and television interference caused by machinery, tools and/or any other equipment or sources. “We’re not against people using equipment in town, but if there are going to be rules about developments it would seem that equipment that interferes with radio and TV should be controlled,” St. Clair said. St. Clair originally wrote to the FCC about the interference, and she received a do-it-yourself booklet telling her how to determine what kind of interference her television is experiencing. She filled out a form that was included, and someone from the FCC called her and told her to begin a petition. St. Clair started the petition a month ago, and she has 40 signatures. “What is bad is that there are a lot of older people whose TV’s are so important to them, and the interference keeps them from enjoying television,” St. Clair said. The television set in the restaurant has a booster on its aerial, but there are still times when none of the stations can be watched according to St. Clair. “There is a lot of interference on the weekends that looks sometimes like there are waves in the channels,” said St. Clair. “The interference had a pattern like someone was using something and shutting it off.” St. Clair is also concerned about her business. “When people pay for a color TV in their motel room, they get irritated when they can’t watch,” St. Clair said. “We might as well turn the town over to industry if people can’t live here with some comforts.” St. Clair is hopeful that the FCC will send someone to Washington to check on the interference and its possible sources. “Maybe people are using faulty equipment or newer equipment that creates sound waves, and they can get filters for the tools,” St. Clair said. “Some people have faulty electrical wiring, and that would be Potomac Edison’s responsibility.” The petition will be sent to the FCC within the next week, and anyone who wishes to sign may do so at the Black Kettle Restaurant during its regular business hours.

industrial Arts RCHS Class Recreates History Then Sees It At Smithsonian Was it an industrial arts project or a history lesson? Actually it became both for 20 industrial arts students at Rappahannock High who recently completed downscaled working replicas of historic ““chines, then visited the National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C. to see the real McCoys. The dual lesson learned by eighth and ninth-grade students was taught by Ron Vickers, an industrial arts teacher in his first year at the high school. About a month ago, Mr. Vickers assigned the project. A few students worked individually, but most in pain. Each team or individual selected the historic machine they wanted to create; each also had to master the art of downsizing from formulas found in a textbook-type manual. In addition, Mr. Vicken sent stu GLASSES MADE WHILE YOU WAIT! muiuues mosi kas, am bifocals, trifocals, photogrey and tinted plastics. Why wait forever for your eyeglasses?

Main, Front Royal 703-636-2020 dents to the school library to research the historic machines they were building. “I had (the students) write twoparagraph abstracts from the (textbook) instructions and library research, short enough so somebody would read it,” Mr. Vickers explained. Students’ scaled-down working models now are on display inside the school’s display case, which is located in the main hall. Eleven historic machines were built by students, some with names seemingly impossible to pronounce. The Tympanum is one, a Greek device that in its day was used for raising water. The Shadouf is another, and offered a good example of students’ ingenuity. To improvise a water-holding piece described as a “burlap bag,” the student who created the Shadouf cut a piece of window blind to form a cone. When the cone didn’t hold water, he dipped it in lacquer. Other examples of improvisation included using the spring from a pen for a coil and creating a trough by slicing garden hose. The real treat came for students when they scrambled on the bus bound for D.C. last Friday at 8:45 a.m. At the Smithsonian, the class was scheduled for a guided tour of the first floor of the Museum of American History. Following the tour, Mr. Vickers planned to let the students examine exhibits on their own for another hour, during which they were assigned three things: List three different time-keeping devices used by man; Name the first (or near first) technique used to make cloth; Name some of the first machines used to harvest grain. Mr. Vickers agreed that the industrial arts project doubled as a history lesson. —Rapfnhamock News Phota/Joo HeddlesSon Rappahannock High Industrial Arts students hang out before departure for Smithsonian. gmbertoool) ^eterinarj hospital ANNOUNCES THE OPENING OF ITS NEW PERMANENT FACILITY AT 121 SYCAMORE STREET CULPEPER, VIRGINIA ENTRANCE OFF SYCAMORE ST., NEXT TO MCDONALD'S H.E.

What would a gambler give for a chance to double the odds? Plenty. . . and then some more if the stakes were as high as the lives of friends, family and even the dice thrower himself. Yet, with the Thanksgiving holiday ahead, thousands of Americans will jump in their cars and head for the homes of family or friends without giving a thought to the one thing that can double their chance of survival should a vehicular accident occur — a seat belt. Buckling a seat belt takes only seconds and can be done without a second thought once a person develops a routine. Still, surveys of seat-belt usage show that a low of one in nine to a high of one in 14 passengers actually buckle up. How can a society that’s so logical about looking down the road to the safety and welfare of future generations be so illogical when it comes to the safety afforded by buckling a seat belt? Some say seat belts are uncomfortable. Seat belt wearers, however, say that they’re uncomfortable when they’re cruising without one. Some say they’re only traveling a short distance, to the school or to the store, aflcl ing at slow speeds. Statistics’* show that three out of every <* four accidents occur within 25 miles of home. Moreover, 80 percent of all accidents happen at speeds of less than 40 miles per hour. In fact, vehicular deaths of unbelted occupants in automobiles have been documented at speeds as slow as five mph. Still, people press on unbuckled and seemingly undaunted by the real life-anddeath dangers of driving on the nation’s highways. The facts are gloomy as pavement, and just as cold, too. More than 40,000 people lost their lives in vehicular accidents in the US last year. Seat belts are the most important life saver that automobile manufacturers are required by law to bolt in a car. We pay for them, but do we use them? The government uses them. Before conducting annual “crash” tests to determine the safety and survivability in crashes involving cars sold in the states, test administrators fasten seat belts around dummy occupants. Then, they measure G-forces on dummies upon impact, which generally involves driving the test car into a solid barrier at 30 or 35 mph. These days, the dummies that are buckled in generally could “survive.” If they weren’t buckled in? According to Consumer Reports: They wouldn’t stand a chance. At least one US automobile manufacturer now is offering free life insurance for one year to purchasers of their products. To coBecJ^ a person needs only %> diodurmg a velucular crash ■ while buckled up*~ Believe it or not, that’s a pretty tough proposition, the kind some might call a safe bet. Race car drivers long have worn seat belts; airplane pilots and truckers lead the buckle-up routine in their vocations. Do they know something we don’t? American Education Week American Education Week is November 11-17. It’s a time when teachers, parents, school board members, administrators and other citizens can think about and discuss our public schools. An education may be the most important service that you, as a parent, provide for your child. Rappahannock County Education Association (RCEA) encourages you to become involved in your child’s education. Talk to your child’s teachers frequently. Join the PTA or Booster’s Club. Attend a Rappahannock County School Board meeting. Express the needs and concerns that you feel should be addressed in connection with our schools. It is only through open, honest communication that we can improve our school system and specifically, your child’s education. Use American Education Week as a time to make a commitment to your child’s future.

'—Our Rappahannock HeritageLetters To The Editor Love County’s Treasures Of Land And People To the editor What value should we place on dean water? Rivers full of fish? Cool streams splashing over rocks where children love to play? Is a landfill a good way to handle the disposal of trash in 1984? Are there other options that would be environmentally safe and economically wiser? If a landfill is the answer, should it be placed in a residential area two and a half miles from the restored, historic county seat? Should we dump our nonbiodegradable trash and chemicals on a hill draining into the Covington and ^Rush rivers? £■* AISftdfill 1 the agp^wisors flp^qv. S woold br drasucchanges to 'Rappahann County. It would cause a great devaluation in the assessed value of surrounding properties, currently the highest tax base area of the County, resulting in tax increases for all county landowners. It would ravage a delicate ecosystem which includes river, marsh, pond and forest habitats. It would necessitate costly improvements to roadways. The odor would waft to many windows, including those of the Inn at Little Washington. It would shatter the dreams of young families and many retirees who have built on adjacent properties. I urge our supervisors to thoughtfully consider the impact on wildlife, water and humans. I urge them to act in love for Rappahannock’s two treasures: the land and the people.

DIANE WOOD Washington I CCRC Forms To Fight Proposed Landfill Location To the editor Our county Board of Supervisors has recently taken drastic actions to establish a sanitary landfill. The proposed landfill site is located in a beautiful, populated neighborhoood which includes a portion of the Rush River and Covington River watersheds. We have responded to this proposal by organizing a new group, Concerned Citizens of Rappahannock County. To date, our group includes about 80 interested citizens who are working towards a solution to the solidwaste problem that is fiscally sound and environmentally appropriate. Some of our members live near the landfill site. Others live miles away, however, and would be affected indirectly. All of us oppose the project as it is currently proposed. We believe— and are prepared to demonstrate—that a superior system of solid-waste management can be implemented at a fraction of the cost of the proposed landfill. Because of the importance of this matter to the entire county, we are placing an ad in this issue which will call the problem to the attention of all readers. We urge those citizens who share our concern to clip and sign the petition contained in the ad and put it in the mail as soon as possible. DEL PRICE, Chaiiperson Concerned Citizens of Rappahannock County Use taxes To Beautify, Not To Condemn To the editor: In 1977,1 chose the United States of America to be mine for what it stands for First, freedom of the people, Second, the beauty of the country, especially Rappahannock County, and more precisely the Hampton District, which is about to loose it’s beautiful trees, land and safe rivers to a landfill. What a life is there near a garbage dump and polluted area? Use our taxes to beautify, not condemn or destroy beautiful land and rivers where other generations, your children’s and mine can enjoy our Great American Heritage and be proud of it like I am so far. Truly yours, a concerned citizen of Rappahannock County, who will fight until the end for the beauty of those mountains, rivers and wildlife. CHRISTINE VAN-MULDERS Peyton Farm Estates What Was It This Time? To the editor I quote from your post-1980 national election edition of the Rappahannock News: “A local politician described the gray, rainy (election) day as ‘Republican weather.” Apparently he was right.” Now, with this Reagan landslide, What was it this time in 1984? The sun? The air? The mountains? Or might it have been, just possibly, the common sense of the American people — ignoring the bias of the media — so important to our democracy. PAUL M. FRANTZ Washington Ruritans Have Fruit Cakes The Amissville Ruritan Club has begun its annual fruit cake sale, according to W.G. Kanaby, club president. Three-pound Benson cakes are selling at last year's prices*. “At $6.5da cake they make wonderful Thanksgiv ing and/or Christmas gifts,” Mr. Kanaby said. The fruit cakes can be purchased from any Amissville Ruritan Club member or at Barron’s Store in Viewtown. “Support the Ruritans, help a good cause and ei\joy the holidays with the best fruit cakes around,” Mr. Kanaby suggested. - From Both BarreltCoattails Too Short By GEORGE BOWLES With the 1964 elections now history, s new and compelling question moves to Virginia’s political center stage. That question is: What will be the impact of the Republican presidential and senatorial landslides on next year’s statewide races in the Old Dominion? Before an even tentative answer to that question can be reached, and any answer at this stage has to be tentative, it is necessary to say a few words about the nature of this year's GOP victories in the state. President Reagan carried Virginia over Democrat Walter Mondale by a crushing 68 percent to Mondale’s 87 percent In the Senate race Sen. John Warner scored an even more lopsided win, 70 percent to 80 percent, over his Democratic opponent, former Del. Edythe Harrison of Norfolk. But while the president and Warner were scoring their landslides, the races for the state’s six seriously contested congressional seats were awash in their outcomes. Democrats Ride Boucher in the 9th District and James Olin in the 6th retained their seats. In the 1st, 8th and 10th Districts Reps. Herbert Bateman, Stan Parris and Frank Wolf turned back their Democratic challengers with ease. In the 7th, the state’s only open slot, former Del. French Slaughter of Culpeper handily defeated Democrat Lewis Costello of Winchester in the race to succeed the retiring Congressman J. Kenneth Robinson. With two Democrats and two Republicans occupying uncontested seats, the final totals on the Virginia congressional delegation were unchanged by the election. There will still be six Republicans and four Democrats. Given the magnitude of the Republican wins in the presidential and senatorial contests, this might appear surprising. It could have been reasonably expected that the coattail effect would have swept all of the GOP candidates to fairly easy victories. In feet, the coattails were there, but they were neither long enough nor strong enough to fmplete the Republican sweep. everyhalsBait, ja <‘OP won their victories by wider margins than did the two winning Democrats. There are several reasons why the GOP coattails were cropped. It is probably safe to say that the Reagan and Warner landslides were personal victories rather than party victories. Both men were iniredibly fortunate in their opponents. It takes nothing away from Democrats Walter Mondale, Geraldine Ferraro and Edythe Harrison to say that whatever their personal strengths may have been, and they were genuinely formidable, they were weak to the point of terminal anemia in their political appeal to the Virginia electorate. With the exception of hardcore loyalists in both parties, the voters of the Commonwealth are renowned for their independence and willingness to vote for candidates whom they perceive to represent their interests regardless of their political label. Thus in the 6th and 9th Districts, both historically strongly Republican, we saw Democrats returned to office in the year of a Republican landslide. If the Warner and Reagan ' sweeps, as broad they were, lacked the depth to achieve this in 1964, it is unlikely that the impact of their wins will carry over, undiluted, into 1985. , That is the year when Virginians will elect a governor, lieutenant governor, attorney general and the 100 members of toe House of Delegates. In that year Republican candidates in the state will be on their own. It is also the year in which the Democrats traditionally, but not always, get serious about politics. But the point is, in spite of GOP claims, there has been no “historic realignment” of the parties either in Virginia or in the nation. Virginia voters are still far too independent for such a realignment to be made to stick for either party. Thereon hangs the Democrats’ best home for 1965. Thus the tentative answer to the question is not complicated. If the Democrats do, indeed, exercise the necessary damage control and get serious about politics next year, the GOP blitz can be contained. The key will be the nomination of candidates who are Within the mainstream of VirginWs'ixgpil thought. " If'ttey fail to do this, it is likely'the Republican blitz will roll on with disasterous consequences for Democratic hopes in the year ahead. Corp’s Promises All But Heard By EUGENE MeCAKTHY IwlwwkNmGwICilaaM The Rand Corporation, one of America's leading corporations, which also features a think tank, has for some time been running an advertisement in the better business magazines touting a course in “Listing.” The advertisement suggests, if it does not positively assert, that most persons, or many, fail to rise in the business world and in the professions because they do not listen, or do not listen correctly. I did not subscribe to Rand Corporation’s course, but was moved by its advertisements to wonder whether I was listening well Possibly, I thought, I bad been missing something or many things. Possibly I was not thinking clearly because I had not been listening. I resolved to listen attentively for a whole day, beginning just before dawn when I listened to the varied notes of the small birds, wood sparrows, principally, I think, in the cedar hedge adjacent to my bedroom window. After a half hour of this listening, I heard the firat morning cawing of the crows, followed by the cry of the catbirds, and of the blue jays, and then the drumming of woodpeckers on dead pine and tulip trees. By seven o’clock, when I should have been getting up to begin work on a book I am supposed to be writing, I was still in bed, listening. New sounds had come on, domestic ones: The crowing of Maiy McCoy’s rooster and the bleating of her goats. The early morning plaintive mooing of Bill Senkewitz’s cow, either calling for a calf, or for a neighbor’s bull. Then came the raucous sound of Nelson Lane’s jackass, reminding me of dawn in Jerusalem, and prompting me to listen in vain for the cry of muezzin, calling the faithful to morning prayer. All through the day, 1 kept listening, according to the prescription of Rand Corporation. Each time, as I was about to stop listening, and go in to my typewriter, another sound distracted me — the mid-morning scream of a hawk, the skittering sound of the kingfisher as he skimmed above the pond water, the September humming bird, buzzing in late flowers, the nooiHdsy yelp of wild turkeys. I did interrupt my listening for lunch, but still unsatisfied, and apprehensive that, if I left off my listening I might spoil the whole Rand Corporation scheme. I returned to listening in the afternoon resting in a lawn chair. I noted the changing sound of the wind as it first came over the mountain, moving the high pines and oaks and tulip trees that marked the ridge, and then worked down to gentler leaves of hickory and ash and to the almost soundless movement of the birch leaves and of the weeping willows. When no wind blew, I could hear the maple leaves ticking onto the ground, counting off the end of summer. During my afternoon walk, I continued to listen, to the sound of squirrels and chipmonks among the leaves and of rabbits,to the grunting of John Glasker’s pig loose in the woods, unless it was the resident bear I heard, noted the changing sound of Beaver Dam Creek as more water fed into it as it ran on down to the old mill site. I noted also, in Thoreau fashion, the sound of the jets overhead, and of trucks on distant route 552, as well as a muffled rumble of thunder beyond the mountains. Late afternoon brought on the bobwhite and the mocking birds, and at dusk the sad singing of coon hounds waiting for night. Then, as darkness settled in, the bass notes of the bull-frogs and the shrill scrapings of the cicadas, the hooting of the owls, again the lonely bellowing of cattle and the Jackass once more. - I had listened all day, and had come to none of clear insights and understandings Rand Corporation had all but promised.

The Homemaker9s Corner By FLORENCE A. VICKERS Afwrt Consumers like fresh foods all year round but especially at holiday times. A turkey that has not been fro*en is the accepted definition of “fresh dressed.” A “fresh dressed” turkey, like any other fresh food, is a perishable food product and must be handled carefully after purchase, says Eleanor L. •Whinnery, marketing specialist with the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. The consumer may want to order the turkey ' and pick it up so there is a minimum of holding time. The temperature for holding a “fresh dressed” turkey should be as close to 32 degrees F. as possible but never over 40 degrees F. If the turkey will not be roasted within one or two days, it would be a wise decision to freeze it. In making that final decision between purchasing a “fresh dressed” or frozen turkey, consumers need to take into account whether they can purchase that “fresh dressed” turkey at the store at the “right” time to ensure proper handling. Cost may be another factor. “Fresh dressed” turkeys do command a higher price per pound Personal preference of the consumer will be a major factor in the decision making process. In selecting a turkey, the question often arises, “Which should I choose - a basted or nonbasted turkey?" Consumers should read to see what is included in the basting fluids as the ingredients vary from brand to brand. Basting fluids may include butter, vegetables oils, broth, water, flavorings or salt Frozen basted turkeys do cost more than frozen non-basted turkeys and rarely is a basting fluid injected into a “fresh dressed” turkey. Whether a turkey is “fresh dressed,” frozen, basted or not, it is important to know that nearly 100 percent of all turkeys are processed under federal or state inspection, meaning the turkey has been inspected for wholesomeness and quality. At the processing level, all necessary measures have been taken to give the consumer a high quality product. An unfrozen turkey requires only six minutes to prepare for roasting. Follow label instructions for roasting, or use these simple directions to obtain CREETliSCS SENSIBLE SEXUALITY Is the sutyect of the third session of the adult course "Strengthening the Family," sponsored by Trinity Episcopal Church.

DO NOT THAW AT ROOM TEMPERATURE. Leave turkey in the original bag and use one of the following methods: If you’re not in a hurry: Place on • tray in the refrigerator for three to four daya (24 hours for each live pounds of turkey). Fastest method: Cover with cold water, changing water frequently. Allow 1/2 hour per pound of turkey. Refrigerate or cook turkey as soon as thawed. For maximum eating quality, refreezing uncooked turkey is not recommended. Commercially stuffed turkeys should not be thawed before roasting. Follow the instructions printed on the bag. The turkey can be prepared and roasted much more quickly if it is not stuffed. If dressing is desired, it can be prepared separately and baked in a covered casserole for the last hour with the turkey. If you prefer to stuff the turkey, spoon stuffing loosely into the body and neck cavities prior to skewering neck skin and replacing legs in hock lock or skin band. To Roast: Place turkey breast-side up on rack in shallow open roasting pan. If a meat thermometer is used, insert into center thigh next to but not touching the bone. Place a “tent” of lightweight foil, shiny side down, loosely over the turkey to prevent overbrowning. Roast in 325 degree oven. Turkey may be basted. Foil may be removed diming the last half hour for a final browning. Roasting time at 326 degrees varies according to weight jf the turkey and whether it is stuffed ir unstuffed. For leftover holiday turkey, Ms. Whinnery recommends the following VDACS repipe. . _ . v _ Turkey And Cheddar Chowder 1/4 cup butter or soybean oil margarine 1 cup chopped onion 1/4 cup flour 2 cups turkey or chicken broth 2 cups milk 2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese 2 cups cooked, chopped turkey In a large saucepan over medium high -heat, saute onions in butter until soft but not brown. Sprinkle flour over onions and cook and stir one minute. Add broth and milk. Cook and stir until thickened about 15 minutes. Stir in cheese and turkey and stir just until cheese melts. Makes 6 servings. Garnish Ideas Whether it’s a fancy or casual dinner, take a few seconds to make it outstanding with one of these garnish ideas. 1. Parsley, kale, carrot tops, mustard greens or fresh herbs make a bright border to outline the golden brown turkey. 2. Sugared grapes or cranberries are made by dipping into mixture of two slightly beaten egg whites and one teaspoon water and then sprinkle sugar over the top until evenly coated. Allow to air dry about one hour before using. 3. Halved cherry tomatoes, peach halves filled wih cranberry sauce or lemon and lime slices twisted together are bright fruit garnishes for the platter. 4. Whole unshelled walnuts or peanuts, fresh herbs or mushrooms are another easy way to arrange platter garnishes. How To Carve Roast Turkey Let turkey stand for 20 to 30 minutes after roasting. Try one of these easy .carving methods. <» Vi f i> . w Dietary Cholesterol. Has Little Effect \ On Blood Cholesterol B7 BIRGITT THORNHILL ExtciMion Accnt “You can eat any cholesterol-containing food you wish as long as you are among that big majority of Americans with the genetic ability to handle cholesterol,” a University of Missouri-Columbia nutritionist said. Addressing scientists attending the national meeting of the American Society of Animal Science, Margaret Flynn, professor of family and community medicine, said more that 86 percent of the U.S. population has the genes to control cholesterol levels in their blood. Flynn has conducted several studies during the past 15 years on the effects of cholesterol-containing foods— like eggs and beef—on cholesterol levels in the Mood. “In none of the studies did we find any indication that these increased serum cholesterol on those who have the ability to handle cholesterol,” she said. In Flynn’s 24-week study, 26 male medical students ate two eggs daily for twelve weeks while maintaining a controlled diet. Then for six weeks, the students were on an uncontrolled diet, eating whatever they wished but maintaining their entry weight. For the remaining 12 weeks, the students abstained from eating eggs. “These studies used all male subjects because men are more likely to get heart disease,” Flynn said. The research also showed that emotional stress has virtually no effect on blood cholesterol. In previous studies Flynn’s subjects added one egg a day to their diets, and then a later study was made adding two eggs a day to the diet. In both studies weight was maintained to within two pounds of the entry weight. All subjects in these studies had a history of normal serum cholesterol levels (about 226 mg.). Results: whether they ate eggs or did not eat eggs, there was little change in serum cholesterol. In another study, Flynn studied the effect of beef consumption on cholesterol. “For three months the only meat the subjects could eat was the fish or chicken that we gave them. Then for the next three months, the only meat they ate was the 5 ounces of beef a day they were given. The results of this study also showed no significant increases in blood cholesterol. “It does not appear that what you eat, as far as dietary saturated fat and cholesterol is concerned, turns Into the other kind, blood cholesterol,” Flynn said. “In 4 more than 80 percent of (humans), there are control mechanisms to keep the circulating blood cholesterol within normal range. We either do not manufacture as much cholesterol in our cells when we eat large amounts of food cholesterol, or we break up the excess cholesterol in the body, whether frer* food or from cells in our bodies,” she said. So, for people who like eggs or beef and have normal levels of blood cholesterol, Flynn said, there is no reason for them to eliminate these foods from their diet.

On Stage Mild-Mannered But Effective Director Leads Players* Uncomine Production The stereotype of a theatrical director does not fit Don Bomberger, who is directing the Rappahannock Players’ upcoming production of “Wait Until Dark.” Nonetheless, his credentials are long and impressive. Not tense and demanding as Hollywood would characterize a director, Bomberger is slight, gentle, soft-spoken and open to suggestions from the cast and the support staff. Yet, he takes final responsibility for script interpretations. Bomberger had not studied to be a director. In fact, he had not studied for the theatre. He has been in two high school dramatic productions and later had worked in summer stock dealing largely with lighting technology. This exposure, together with work done while he was a student at Eastern Mennonite College and at James Madison University, both of which are located in Harrisonburg, Va., gave him an opportunity to observe this art critically. Although he had prepared to teach mathematics, Bomberger’s interest in theatre continued, and after he had read a book by David Walker, which he considers a classic, Theatrical Directions, he thought more seriously about WILSON BROS., INC.

Bomberger considers himself an artist, and one way of organizing his creative talents is through directing. Philosophically, Bomberger feels anger to be a useless emotion. He therefore is often slow to respond negatively, but instead typically says, “I’ll give the idea some thought and come back to it later.” Bomberger came to Rappahannock in 1973 and in 74 directed his first play, “Winnie The Pooh.” Since that time, he has directed 23 productions. Many have been large-cast musicals, others have been comedies such as “Arsenic And Old Lace” and mysteries such as “The Mousetrap.” The reception of his work in the community is testified to by the fhct that he has worked not only on the high school level but with the Rappahannock and Front Royal Players as well. Bomberger is married to Judy Bomberger, who also teaches in the Rappahannock School System and participates in many community musical events. They have one child, daughter Melodie, almost 2. Time management must be a key to this young director's success, for he is the head of the math department, the art department and the drama department at the high school. Don Bomberger Going On in the Arts ‘Belle of Amherst9 Comes To Town On Saturday, Nov. 17 By TUTT STAPP-HARRIS and LAURIE MARSHALL Contributing Writen D.C. actress Diane Couves will perform “The Belle of Amherst” on Saturday, November 17 at the> Gay Street Theatre in Washington at 8p.m. This highly acclaimed one-woman play is based upon the poems and letters of Emily Dickenson, the 19th century writer whose extraordinary poetry and lively spirit flourished within a life of secluded spinsterhood. “Squire Dickenson’s half-cracked daughter,” as Emily refers to herself in the play, epjoyed the responses of her scandalized neighbors to her single lifestyle, her white dresses worn yearround, and her bits of cryptic verse which she enclosed with Christmas baking “(That’ll keep them guessing,” she says with satisfaction as she dashes off an obscure couplet). Yet this cheerful acceptance of her life as the unwed, unpublished daughter of stem Edward Dickenson was balanced by the poet’s yearning to have her work published, her love returned—“Almost, within my reach! I could have touched! I might have passed that way!” , Diane Couves blends both sides of femily Dickenson’s intricate personality to create a character of warmth, enthusiasm, wit and wisdom, and perhaps above all, a lover of language — “Massachusetts — now there’t a word you can tip your hat to!” Tickets to this unique evening of professional theatre are $3 for students and seniors, $6 for RAAC-members and $6 for non-members, and are on sale at Middle Street, Brambles Cafe and the Library. RAAC Calendar Exhibit A reminder that the exhibit of the original works featured in the Rappahannock Artists Calendar will run through November 18. Calendars are available at local stores and at the RAAC office. Landfill (Continued from Page 1) can be made. Commonwealth’s Attorney Luke was considering the best way to obtain that right, and he said that there were two possibilities. A condemnation suit could be filed with a discovery clause included in the suit, or the county could use another method of gaining access to the land without a lawsuit. The land’s suitability will be determined by a series of tests done by an engineering consultant. Those studies would then be turned over to the State Department of Health for its approval or disapproval. “We’re just in the beginning stages of this now, and a lot of different things can happen that would change everything,” said Luke. There is no State acreage requirement for a landfill, but the buffer pro vided by 138 acres is viewed as a plus for the proposed site. The accessibility question would not become a factor until far along into the process, but State Highway Department officials stated that there is a 30 foot right of way granted to the state on Route 621 from Route? 674 to 622. Any widening of the road beyond the 30 foot right-of-way would mean that the state would have to obtain land from property holders along Route 621. The CCRC is investigating alternate sites for the landfill, and has support from Phil Irwin, president of the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection, and a spokesman for the county chapter of the Walton League. Delbert Price is chairman of the group, and Jack Preston is co-chairman. School Board (Continued from Page 1) Lita Remaen was approved as a substitute teacher, and the Board approved the resignation of Leonard Petrino as science teacher at the high school. The next Board meeting will be on December 11. At that meeting, the public will have a chance to have some input about the budget. People interested in speaking to the Board on the budget are encouraged to call the School Board office and ask to be put on the agenda for the meeting, and ask any questions. Cancer Drive Nets $3363.14 The Cancer Society fund drive, which took place in the spring, was successful, and a total of $3,363.14 was collected in Rappahannock by volunteers. That amount was over the goal set, and thanks to the efforts of the volunteer programs such as the loan closet in Flint Hill, financial assistance for those who need transportation to treatment centers, and public information and education have been able to continue in Rappahannock. Without the help of all of the volunteers the fund drive would not have been the success it was. The district chairmen for the drive were Edna Moore of Wakefield District, Jule Konick of Stonewall- H awthorne, Beverly Massie of Jackson, Kevin Day of Piedmont and Lisa Day of Hampton. Gratitude is expressed for the work of each volunteer.

Konick Replies To Kidwell Suit By JANE BANGLEY *MP«h«uioth Ntwi Staff WrtUr Dayid L. Konick, a Washington, Va. lawyer, filed his reply on November 7 to a $225,000 lawsuit. The lawsuit was brought against Konick on October 18 by Diane E. Kidwell of Flint Hill. The Kidwell suit referred to a period from September to November 1982 when Konick was representing the Kidwells in a right-of-way dispute with Patricia Saltonstall of Points of View Farm. On November 9, 1982, Kidwell shot and killed Ranee Spellman, foreman of Points of View Farm, while Spellman was widening a road. Kidwell was found not guilty of murder by reason of self-defense in October, 1983. Konick begins his reply with a demurrer, which is a denial that the allegations of the suit, even if true, would legally constitute a cause for action. His reasons for the demurrer are that Kidwell’s motion for judgment does not state a cause for action recognized by the law of Virginia, that no remedy is offered by the law for the allegations in the motion for judgment, and that the motion shows that there was no harm done to Kidwell. Konick also makes a plea of the statute of limitations because the suit was filed more than a year after any of the alleged wrongful or injurious events took place. Estoppel is included • in Konick’8 reply. Estoppel is the rule that stops anyone from alleging or denying a fact because of the person’s previous action by which the contrary has been admitted, implied or determined. Konick states under the estoppel heading that Kidwell cannot bring the suit because she confronted Spellman “in direct contravention of advice, counsel and directions given to her by the defendant (Konick), and she thereby caused all the consequences and damages of which she now complains.” Under a plea of collateral or additional estoppel, Konick states that a ruling by the court on February 25, 1983 that determined Kidwell’s interests were “not substantially prejudiced by the conduct” of Konick requires the dismissal of the suit. In his grounds of defense, Konick denies that he suppressed material evidence in connection with the Spellman case. Konick states that any information that he disclosed was a result of “specific instructions on the part of the plaintiff (Kidwell) who directed him to reveal information to the Special Grand Jury in an effort to avoid indictment.” Konick states in the reply that the court has ruled that the disclosure of the information did not materially prejudice Kidwell's interests. Konick denies that his actions were done maliciously or with indifference to Kidwell’s rights, that his actions would constitute professional negligence or intentional infliction of emotional distress, and that his actions caused Kidwell to suffer actual damages and emotional distress. Konick states in his reply that Kidwell has “sustained no damage from any action of the defendant and, as a matter of public policy, should not recover under these circumstances.” Konick then moved that the court dismiss the suit, and award him all his costs and attorneys fees. Konick is represented by Phillip C. Stone of Wharton, Aldhizer & Weaver Attorneys at Law in Harrisonburg, Va. A court date has not been set. General District Court oajruig mat trie court couia oe deemed overly lenient in the case, Judge John Alexander imposed a relatively light sentence on Timothy Scott Sealock in General District Court on Tuesday. Sealock was charged with driving on a suspended license, reckless driving, driving while intoxicated, and failing to stop for an officer. Sealock was charged with the offenses by Rappahannock County Deputy John Facchina on October 20. Facchina testified that he had chased Sealock’s vehicle until Sealock turned into a driveway. The driveway happened to be to a State trooper’s house, and the trooper assisted Facchina in the capture of Sealpcfc in the trobper’sbackyanC, , v BIRDMAN’S TAXIDERMY In MouMIng and Tanning OmpWi TmxUmmy Swnrtom.

There was no prosecution on the reckless driving and failure to stop for an officer charges. Judge Alexander suspended all of the fines and the jail term condtioned upon Sealock’s enrollment in a substance abuse program in Warren County, and his continuation in the program until his release by program authorities. ^You’re a young man, and the court wants to give you an opportunity to get your act together,” said Judge Alexander.

CARE Ethiopia Program Announced New York, N.Y.—CARE, the international aid and development organization, signed on Nov. 6 an agreement after a year of negotiations aritfrthn gnvoiniit >f Ethiepia wad— .. which CARE will provide both food and financial assistance to the droughtaffected people of Ethiopia. The agreement was signed at the Ethiopian Mission to the U.N. by Dawit Walde Giorgis, representing the Government of Ethiopia and Dr. Philip Johnston, the Executive Director of CARE. “CARE estimates that it will provide 50,000 tons of food and $10 million of other assistance to Ethiopia for this emergency,” Dr. Johnston said.. “Cash resources will be used to en'hanee the ability of Ethiopian ports to unload ships, to pay for the transportation and distribution of relief food to remote areas of the-country,, and to improve food storage capacity for the emergency commodities.” Dr. Johnston said that CARE staff arrived in' Ethiopia in the first week of November. “Our first priority will be to facilitate movement of foodstuffs in the country to areas where they are most needed. CARE has developed special expertise in working to alleviate the suffering caused by drought and famine which are extensive in Africa,” he said. “In 1961 CARE established a logistics operation for the distribution of food in neighboring Somalia, which has a severe refugee and business, defamation, abuse of process and malicious prosecution, and civil conspiracy. For each of the six counts, Saltonstall asks in the suit for an award of (250,000 in compensatory damages with pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, and $250,000 in punitive damages again with pre-judgment and post-judgment interest. For the count involving interference with business, Saltonstall asks for an award of treble damages, which is three times the actual damages, and attorneys fees and costs. She also asks that the court award any other relief deemed just and proper. Compensatory damages are awarded to make amends, and punitive damages are damages given in excess of actual loss as punishment. Actual damages are real or substantial damages. In the other suit, Saltonstall asks for an award of $500,000 in compensatory damages with pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, $250,000 in punitive damages with interest, and any other relief for the wrongful death of Spellman. Saltonstall is the person designated in Spellman’s will to administer the estate. The suit was brought by Saltonstall on behalf of the estate and of Spellman’s brother, Boyd. Saltonstall is represented in both suits by Philip J. Hirschkop of Hirschkop & Grad, P.C. in Alexandria, Va. The Kidwells have 21 days to file a reply in the County Clerk s Office. problem; earlier this year CAKE also set up logistics operations for food distribution in Mozambique and the Sudan, both of which are currently suffering from drought and widespread hunger,” Dr. Johnston said. CARE also will begin a logistics operation in November for the distribution of emergency food in Mauritania in response to food shortages in West Africa, he said. CARE is launching a special campaign for funds for Ethiopia through its World Headquarters at 660 First Avenue, New York, N. Y. 10016.

Once Around Rappahannock Cold Run Turkey Ridge Run II Promises More Fun The Second Time Around By JON HEDDLESTON Bfpainninrk Ntw Staff Writer For those who think all footraces begin with the bang of a gun, better think again. The Turkey Ridge Run II is scheduled to line up runners from far and near on December 1. Preparation for the race, though, began months ago. The second annual 7.1-mile run is sponsored by the Castleton Volunteer Fire Department. With preparation time winding down and race time coming up, Turkey Ridge Run II was an important subject of discussion when fire and rescue volunteers met November 7 at the Castleton Fire Hall. Appropriately enough, the run was listed on the meeting agenda as "Unfinished business.” Organizer Leads Discussion Philip Strange, vice president of the Castleton Fire Department and organizer of the event, kicked off discussion by reminding the audience of 15 or so soon-to-become-race-day volunteers that this was the last meeting before the run. Mr. Strange reported that 14 preregistration applications had been received. He said the pre-registration number was better than last year’s at the same point in time. He added that most runners register on the day of the race, however. Mr. Strange reported some good / g —JUppohKDOck News Photo Ray Cannon will start the run with a bang Dec. 1 news and some bad news regarding publicity. First, the good news: Two hundred-fifty flyers complete with Turkey Ridge Run II symbol had flocked into the Shenandoah and Winchester areas. Chances also were good radio stations in Winchester, Culpeper, Warrenton and Orange would air plugs for the run. The bad news: The Washington fUR/c£p^QGE Post decided this year to drop the free publicity the newspaper previously had given similar events in its weekend section. Last Chance To Help Mr. Strange announced he’d need Borne help with “different jobs” on the day of the run. Like a kid with a Christmas wish list,.he called for volunteers and outlined needs in a variety of areas. Each required widespread, and occasionally dubious, expertise. Among them: • Starters and registrars. • Pick-up truck complete with owner-driver of said vehicle. • Timer, back-up timer, timer for mile six. (When no one readily volunteered to be timer for mile six, Randy Norman, seated in the back, was volunteered by someone else seated in the front. “Go ahead,” young Norman sighed, as though he already knew his name was being written down.) • Water-table helpers. (Peggy Woodward volunteered her daughter to help, then volunteered the services of the whole family.) • Ambulance service. (Would one be enough? The group decided it would.) • Juice, cider, donations of apples. • Kitchen, kitchen help, contribu^ tors of baked goods. (Are hamburgers and hot dogs okay again this year? How about some hot chocolate for the runners? Some refused the cider last year....) • Turkeys. “We need three turkeys and somebody to pick them Up,” Mr. Strange announced. (Three high-school students in the back of the room started pointing at each other, saying, “He’s a turkey.” “No, she’s a turkey.”) • Gun shooter. “Ray, you’ll start the race?” Mr. Strange asked Ray Cannon to do the job for the second year in a row. “Don’t forget the gun,” Mr. Strange added with a smile that slowly stretched. “And don’t put live ammunition in this year like you did last year,” • Cwmmrlust nodded; the coHunitmentwas solidified. With the fun and excitement (and success) of volunteerism by year-round —Rappahannock Newt Staff Photo Castleton Vol. FD Officers at table (1-r) John Wayne Settle, president; Jimmy Cannon, treasurer, Philip Strange, vice president; and Marty Cannon, secretly, lead discussion at meeting last Wednesday night. volunteers completed, Mr. Strange outlined expectations. His hope: This year the race will be better than last year when 50 runners turned out and the Castleton Fire Department “made a little bit, not much.” It takes people working together to determine a winner long before the race begins, according to Mr. Strange. “One or two people can’t do it. Everybody’s got to help,” he emphasized. At this meeting, everybody did pitch in. Mr. Strange also noted the financial support of two sponsors: Ray Cannon Real Estate of Castleton and Better Homes Real Estate of Arlington, Va. Their support will enable the volunteers to purchase special-made hats to be awarded to the first 100 entrants and pin-on medals to be awarded the top three finishers in each category. Hats and medals will sport the Turkey Ridge Run II logo, he said. The run is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m., snow or shine, on Saturday, December 1. Categories include male and female, open: ages 14 and under, 15-19; 26t29; 30-39; 40-49; 50 and over1.’'1' A “Christmas” turkey will be awarded to winners of the “open” category; a special award also will go to the first volunteer firefighter or rescue squad person to finish. “This incredibly scenic 7.1-mile course is a runner’s dream,” the flyer reads. “Come...run off some of that Thanksgiving dinner....” Entry fees are $6; $5 for junior high students; post registration, $7, no later than 10:30 a.m. the morning of the race, which begins at the Castleton fire hall. Flyers are available at Brambles 'ft&tkuraht kntf'the Rappahannotk Newt. For more information, call Mr. Strange at 937-6858; Frank Reynolds, 676-3683; or Diane Bruce, 676-3621.

Warren Wesley Essex, 28, was the first person in Virginia convicted of murder in a drunken driving case. He was involved in a November 1981 wreck which killed three Fauquier teenagers. A year later, a Fauquier jury found Essex guilty on three counts of second-degree murder. But the state’s highest ruled last month that the prosecution failed to prove Essex had acted maliciously and overturned the convictions. Fauquier Circuit Court Judge W. Shore Robertson this week sentenced Essex to five years on each of the manslaughter charges. The sentences were to run concurrently, but the judge dismissed them because Essex had already served 15 months in jail on the murder convictions. The other manslaughter and driving under the influence charge were dismissed. !0n The Morning Side Of The Blue Ridgetell« tk« story of Rappahannock County and its people The soft bound book includes old photographs and special articles which appeared each month of the 1983 sesquicentennial year plus stories of historical interest from past years Featuring chapters on Education, Soldiers, Doctors, Slavery, Freemen and Integration, Mountain People and the Park, the Depression.

Frantz, Treasurer Virginia Roundup ^ By ARCOM News Service Rabid Cow, Skunk Found In Fauquier Two cases of rabies were confirmed recently in Fauquier County and control of the disease continues to be the local health department’s “number one priority.” Six dogs and one cat were destroyed after their owner believed they had come in contact with a rabid skunk that wandered onto a farm near Warrenton Oct. 30. A few weeks earlier, a Bealeton calf was sent to the University of Pennsylvania’s New Bolton Center because owners suspected it had a tumor. Testing of the brain revealed rabies. Horses and cows are susceptible to the disease which strikes the central nervous system but these large animals rarely bite humans, according to a doctor at the New Bolton Center. Fauquier Deer Herd Large, Healthy Fauquier County game wardens predict local hunters will find a plentiful supply of large, well-fed animals when deer season opens Monday. A bountiful crop of wild nuts and fruits accounts for the healthy herd and Fauquier animals are “better off” than deer in other parts of the state, said Bob Duncan, assistant chief of the game division of the Virginia Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries. Game officials expect local hunters to kill 1,700 to 1,800 deer during the seven-week season, which ends Jan. 5. Fauquier hunters killed 1,383 deer last year. Mmdcrer Sentenced To SO Years John C. Marteny, the Falls Church man convicted of murdering two Vienna women last April, has been sentenced to 60 years in prison. Fairfax County Circuit Court Judge Lewie Griffith sentenced Marteny Friday to a 20-year term and a 40year term, to run consecutively. That’s 10 years less than what a jury recommended Marteny serve after it found him guilty Sept. 26. Marteny could be eligible for parole after serving eight years. Former Policewoman Settles Lawsuit Out Of Court A former Warrenton police officer who sued the town for sex discrimination has settled the lawsuit out of court. The terms of the settlement were hot disclosed. Cheryl Anderson sought $3.5 million in damages in the suit which was filed July 2 in U.S. District Court in Alexandria. During her Aug. 8,1983 interview to considered for promotion to corporal, Mrs. Anderson was asked questions about her strengths and weaknesses as a female, the lawsuit alleged. She alleged two men also considered for promotion were not asked questions relative to sex. The lawsuit charged ‘'all the said defendants . . . intentionally discriminated against her solely by reason of her sex in denying her the promotion.” The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ruled Sept. 1, 1983, that Mrs. Anderson was not denied the promotion because of her sex. Mrs. Anderson, who joined the town police force Jan. 23, 1982, resigned July 17. Films Deemed ‘Pornographic,’ Removed The operator of a video movie rental store in Herndon has complied with a police department cease and desist “order” and has removed three films from his shelves that were deemed pornographic by police. Hentdon Police Chief George Winkle said the movies — Taboo, Let Me Tell Ya ’Bout White Chicks and Centerfold Fever — “met the criteria for pornography.” Fire, Rescue Center Report Due In January A Loudoun County government staff committee seeking a site for the proposed Fire and Rescue Training Center, designed to serve as a regional facility, is expected to issue its repent to the board of supervisors in January. The center will furnish complete f training facilities for the county’s more 1 than 600 fire department and rescue 1 squad volunteers. It will also be avail- i able on a regional basis for use by Fau- , quier, Clarke and other county ] volunteers. ( The search of an appropriate site | has been ongoing for nearly five years i because the county had sought a “wil- j ling seller” of land for the center. Last ( month, however, the board of supervi- ( sofa agreed to condemn a site if a suita- j ble one is found. ] Clake Girls Fall In Regional Clarke County’s girls basketball squad won its first round match in the Virginia High School League’s Group A Region B tournament playoffs before losing 63-40 to undefeated Buffalo Gap in the semifinals last week at Western Albemarle High School. The loss ended the best season (213) in the history of women’s basketball at Clarke County High School. Much of the success was due to all-district superstar Carla Holmes who as only a ophomore is the high school’s all-time Hiding scorer with more than 1,000 caeer points.

Rural Life In Rappahannock For AmissviUe Homemaker Frances Semones, Marriage And Family Are Fundamental By JON HUDDLESTON Rawatuuinoek New* Staff Writer Frances Semones knows what makes the perfect wedding gift. It’s a poem entitled “The Art of Marriage.” A copy hangs on her bedroom wall; die transcribes its verse in needlepoint from time to time for wedding gifts. Tfye message is simple: The little things are big things when it comes to marriage. Holding hands, standing together despite obstacles and saying “I love you” daily are among the poem’s creed. For Frances Semones, Rappahannock’s Homemaker of the Year, the commitment to marriage comes first. From that commitment, all else follows. Marriage Prime Mover It’s difficult to single out marriage as the prime mover in Mrs. Semones’ life. Her marriage of nearly 45 years, devotion to family and commitment to community aren’t visibly separate and distinct, like a three-layer cake. Rather, they appear swirled, like a marble one. ' Still, in trying “to do kind things for people whenever I can,” Mrs. Semones holds firm to the priorities at home, those things that the Rappahannock Homemakers’ Council, who selected Mrs. Semohes as Homemaker of the Year, believe made her an excellent choice. “I think it’s a combination of everything,” Helen Guthrie, president of the Homemakers’ Council and member of the Woodville Club, said of the Council’s selection of Mrs. Semones. “(Mrs. Semones work) kind of flows from the home out...It’s just an extended family. ” Mrs. Guthrie said that Mrs. Semones always . seems able to take on additional responsibilities. She said Mrs. Semones has the ‘inner resources” and “energy” to keep pace with numerous, often varied, demands. Takes Time For All Mrs. Semones downplays her selection as Homemaker of the Year. “I guess it’s nice to make it a special thing, although I didn’t do anything special,” she said. She also is quick to compliment the dedication of other homemakers, particularly Alice Laurence and Mary Priest who have perfect attendance at Amissville Club meetings for 18 and 15 years, respectively. Mrs. Semones serves as president, of the Aipisaville Homemakers’ • Club. and treasurer-of, f. United Methodist* Women, a group that’* part «f the Amissville Methodist Church. Last Saturday* the churchwomen conducted a bazaar, selling handmade items that the group had worked a year to make. Like other members, Mrs. Semones worked on items at home, at the hospital, at the church or wherever she found a few spare moments. “Everything was happy from the word go,” she said of the women who worked long and hard together to make the fund raiser possible. “We did quite well.” Mrs. Semones expressed concern, however, that she was unable to attend several meetings of the Amissville Homemakers’ Club this year. She noted how important it is for the president always to be there, ahe also explained why: Her mother suffered a stroke l&st January; her husband, Thornton, experienced severe kidney problems and was hospitalized in September. Mr. Semones now is back home. aO. i)74 Courts CwfoarJs (jenc Jbpman ♦ Ewell St. 253-5942 \ The Plains . Va. 22171 i i Handmade & Distinctive t ! Custom Kitchens,Libraries ! I & formal Wall Paneling j Mrs. Semones’ mother moved in with Mr. and Mrs. Semones following her release from the hospital. Mrs Semones said she believes that the home is the place for special care of family members. “I was brought up in an atmosphere where we loved each other and cared for each other,” she said. “You care for your loved ones in your home; you don’t shovel them out.” Rappahannock Best Decision The Semoneses moved to Amissville in 1966, two years after an industrial accident caused Thornton to lose a hand and a leg. He had to undergo a series of operations. The move to Rappahannock was a decision the couple never has regretted. "We wanted to find a place for ourselves... to be independent,” Mrs. Semones said. They selected a home on Route 211, a “horrible looking” piece of property at first, Mrs. Semones recalled. She added, though, that the place they would make home from then on had a picture-perfect view of the nearby highway. “Let me live by the side of the road and be a friend of man. That’s how I really feel,” Mrs. Semones offered. Previously, the family had lived in different parts of Virginia, wherever Mr. Semones’ contracting work for the highway department would take them. Until the move to Amissville, they considered Radford, Va. home, where they had lived for 16 years. Former 4-H’er, Scout Leader Mrs. Semones has been involved in community activities most of her life. The former 4-H’er often scored well as a youngster in “health contests,” during which judges judged contestants on posture and other physical attributes. “I lost points for having hands that perspired,” she remembered, laughing. At age 13, Mrs. Semones earned First Prize for a “plain shirt-waist dress” of cotton, which she made, then modeled in Richmond. At 14, she was named “Most Outstanding Club Girl of Amherst County,” for which she won a trip to the University of Virginia. Her most dubious honor., though, came when she was awarded “honorable mention” in a canning competition. She had taken green beans, measured and sliced each at one inch, then stacked them neatly in two-by-two rows. “It was beautiful, but ,-not an appropriate tp can, beans,” she recced the judges saying. 1,' .. Her love of community organizations shch as 4H led her to become involved in Brownies and Girl Scouts when daughters Barbara and Vivian were growing up. Mrs. Semones said a family should have “sharing time,” time when the TV is left behind and the family enjoys doing things together. She recalled that the entire family got excited about major events in any family member’s life. One time, when daughter Barbara was crowned homecoming queen, Mr. Semones drove seven hours just to be there. What ‘Homemaker’ Means Mrs. Semones told what being a homemaker means to her. “It means having a good, Christian, attractive home, not necessarily filled with a lot of beautiful furnishings. Take what you have, keep it dean. Be proud of it.” Leathercocu Mountain to the east of The Plains, in the Bull Run cham was important to 18th century travelers as its exposed bctrerock is such an easily recognizable landmark.

Delect Hearing Problems Early To Promote Communications Skills Detecting hearing problems early in children is serious business whan one thinks that an entire lifetime of successful communication depends on those first precious years when a child is forming sounds and repeating the syllables he hears. His speech patterns are beginning to take shape. If there is little or no hearing and no other way is introduced to him to break out of his world devoid of sound, he becomes lost. Sometimes what society labels a slow learner, or a child who has learning disabilities is really a child who cannot hear what is going on around him. Which children are likely to have hearing problems? Will my child be hearing impaired? According to Dr. Fred T. Shaia, neuro-otologist at the Balance and Ear Center, Inc. in Richmond, these are questions which need to be asked long before a pregnancy occurs. “Parents who have a strong family history of hearing loss should consider genetic counseling before pregnancy,” Dr. Shaia said in a recent interview. HI think that it’s especially important if there is deaftiess in both sides of the family. . . like aunts, uncles, grandmothers, or grandfathers.” He mentioned while it is very possible for two deaf parents to have a normal child, it is still. u... important to determine the cause for the earing loss in the parents to see if they each had a differQUALITY.

The loss of hearing since birth in family members usually indicates a genetic pattern and Dr. Shaia stated that, “Children born into those families should probably be examined for hearing loss within their first year of life.” He also indicated that during the pregnancy itself, if the mother has any serious viral infections such as pneumonia or has to be treated with antibiotics or unusual drugs of any kind, “then we have to worry about whether or not this might cause some problems with the child.” Dr. Shaia also mentioned that if the mother is currently taking medications for other health problems like disabetes, there can be some concern for the unborn child. Low birth weight is another factor which may indicate some hearing problems in newborns. “If the child weighs three pounds or less, they are a strong suspect for hearing loss as well as other congenital problems,” said Dr. Shaia. There are other factors about hearing loss in children which involves the parents. “If there is a blood compatibility problem between the mother and the father and a child becomes severely jaundiced at birth then the bilirubin which builds up can build up again in the brain area and cause a loss of hearing due to the damage in the pathways to the brain,” Dr. Shaia explained. High blood pressure and kidney problems during pregnancy can also result in potential hearing problems in newborns. There are other problems after birth which can affect hearing loss and probably the most serious is meningitis. According to Dr. Shaia, “If a child has meningitis early in life it’s more of a problem because he can’t relate to you the fact that he can’t hear. If he has meningitis in the first three years of life, then there is about a 10 percent incidence of these children developing hearing loss either in one ear or both ears and it can be severe.” Head injuries are also probable causes for hearing loss, even minor injuries. But the most common cause of hearing loss in children is fluid behind the eardrum. The eustachian tube drains from the ear to the back of the throat and is responsible for equalizing the pressure behind the eardrum. The problem occurs because in children the muscles that control the eustachian tube are not developed fully and often because of that, fluid builds up behind the eardrum; the eardrum will not move and this results in stgnifleant hearing Ima Dr. Shaia mentioned that this can be corrected by,M... putting ‘tubes’ in the ears. This is a fairly short procedure. It lasts about five minutes.” He added, “It is very important in language and speech development; because if they are allowed to go a significant length of time with a hearing handicap, studies have shown that children who have fluid behind the eardrum or who have frequent infections, do poorly in speech and language development.” He explained that the situation is reversible and if the tubes are put in the child’s ears to get rid of the fluid, "hearing will return to normal and they won’t have serious problems which could develop by doing nothing.” Hearing loss does not seem to be related to any particular ethnic group or culture or any particular region of the country except in some rural areas where adequate medical care or treatment for infections are not available.

Nichols, Sisk To Report RCHS ‘Panther Tales’ Leslie Nichols and Kelli Sisk will serve as Student Council Association (SCA) reporters at Rappahannock High during the ’84-’85 school year. Their column, entitled “Panther Tales,” is scheduled to begin in the Rappahannock News later this month. Miss Nichols and Miss Sisk are freshmen and close friends. They campaigned together last spring for the team position of SCA reporters. Their “really flashy” campaign combo of posters and buttons won them the reporter slots, whi&i are determined by the popular vote of the student body, they said. Three teams of two ran for the reporter positions - all competitors were boys, they noted. “(Writing for the newspaper) sounded like fun. Last year’s re porters talked to new teachers and wrote reports,” Miss Nichols said. Although neither reporter said she aspires to become a journalist, both enjoy aspects of the vocation. “I like to write,” Miss Nichols offered. “I like to read,” Miss Sisk said. These talents the duo will combine when compiling reports monthly on SCA meetings and other school activities. Both reporters will have to write for the newspaper when they can catch some spare moments: Miss Nichols is on the girl’s volleyball team; Miss Sisk is a JV cheerleader. Miss Nichols is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Paul A. Nichols of Flint Hill; Miss Sisk is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James R. Sisk of Sperryville.

In March of this year the Board of Agriculture and Consumer Services had accepted a petition from the cattle industry to hold such a referendum this year. A favorable vote in the referendum means that the Virginia Cattle Industry Commission will be established upon proclamation by the Governor. The law provides the commission shall indude 16 members appointed by the Governor representing the various segments of the cattle industry. Its role will be to develop and implement a self-help program of research, education, and promotion for improving the cattle industry. Passage of the referendum also means that cattle producers will begin assessing themselves 25 cents per head on all cattle sold, except for dairy cows returning to the farm for milk production and those animals selling for less than twenty dollars a head. It is estimated that about $155,000 will be generated from this assessment each year. These funds will be used for projects that will benefit Virginia’s cattle industry. s' JU.
