85THIYEAR, NO. 48 USPS 4.VV>80 14 PAGES Thursday, November29,1984 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA Phone 67.">-3349 25* • Town Boundaries Made Official The Town of Washington now has official boundaries due to a recent survey conducted by James G. Butler, Jr. and Associates, P.C. of Warrenton. Town Council member Newbill Miller said that the survey was done primarily to specify what the boundaries are in order to avert any possible zoning problems. The town’s boundaries were previously a matter of agreement between town and county officials. The town boundaries were also needed by the Council in its effort to obtain a new town charter. The town’s charter has not been updated since 1894. The survey’s cost was $1,500, and the town will pay half of that and the county will pay half. Round, concrete markers have been placed on the boundary lines at each road leading into town. • Rabies Vaccination Clinic Saturday Owners of dogs and cats can have their pets vaccinated against rabies this Saturday for a nominal fee, Jack Bruce, Rappahannock Animal Warden, announced November 27. Bruce said a rabies vaccination clinic will be conducted at Rappahannock Recreation Center in Washington this Saturday, December 1, from 10 to 11 a.m. The three-year rabies vaccinations will be given by Dr. P. M. Graves of Madison. The cost per cat or dog: $3.50. Bruce said there’s no current outbreak of rabies in the county. He added, however, that rabies test results of a raccoon he took to Luray last summer came back positive. • Madison County Won’t Take Dogs Madison County will not enter into contract with Rappahannock to accept dogs at $10 per animal as a temporary solution to the county’s euthanasia and disposal woes,-Animal Warden Jack Bruce said November 28. Bruce had been authorised on November 5 by the Board of Supervisors to seek such a solution. Bruce said Rappahannock’s request had been considered by Madison’s Board of Supervisors and county administrator before being denied. . Madison is experiencing animal-welfare problems of its own that were revealed late last week during an investigative report by WJ LATV (Channel 7). Posing as prospective buyers of dogs for laboratory use, WJLA-TV reporters purchased four dogs in Madison for $60, according to the report. The transction was filmed by a hidden camera. The sale of dogs by —wardens for laboratory use is a violation of Virginia State Code. Madison is the third county that has turned bade Rappahannock’s request for temporary help, following Culpeper and Fauquier, both contacted earlier this month by supervisors or members of the Rappahannock Humane Society (RHS). In a telephone interview on November 26, Richard Latham, chairman of the Board of Supervisors, said plans to upgrade animal-shelter forihties an the property at Animal Warden Bruce now are being drafted •fry Supm'flrtr "Hubert dfflmy Ilf. Or nee said m NovgwbergTthat would allow such improvements, although no final decisions had been made. Rappahannock’s own gas chamber for enthanasia now is operable and has been used twice, Bruce said. The animals were disposed of legally, he added. A solution to the problem of disposal, however, has yet to be determined, he confirmed. • Scenic River Hearing Tonight A public hearing on proponed scenic river status for the Upper Rappahannock is scheduled for November 29 at 7:30 p.m. The hearing will take place in Culpeper, at the Courthouse. Rappahannock County supervisors on December 3 again will consider endorsing the proposal after reviewing the recommendations of two county residents who own property at the river’s headwaters. The scenic river designation already has been endorsed by supervisors in Culpeper and Fauquier counties. Among other things, the special status would establish a board comprising load citizens who would be contacted for input should any diversion of the river’s flow be proposed. • Energy-Savers9 Loans Available The Virginia Housing Development Authority (VHDA) announced November 16 the offer of $5 million in no-interest or low-interest loans to homeowners considering energy-saving home improvements. According to a VHDA press release, owners of home built before 1980 may borrow from $600 and $6,000 at interest rates ranging from aero to 12 percent. Loan amounts and interest rates are based on income, family size and energy costs. Home improvements that may qualify for financing include replacement of storm windows and doors, insulation and new and upgraded heating systems. To find out if they qualify, homeowners can call tollfree: 1-800-572-3206. • GED Tests Are Dec. 8, 15 The General Educational Development Test (GED) for people who did not ftilfill high school graduation requirements will be given on December 8 and 15, according to a press release from Warren County Public Schools. GED tests will be given at the Warren County Vocational Center in Front Royal. Testing on both days will begin at 8:30 a.m. and aid at 4:30 p.m. The tests are administered by the Adult Education Service of the State Department of Education. By achieving satisfactory test scores, people 18 and older may earn a high school equivalency certificate. Applications will be accepted through December 4. A person can apply at the Rappahannock County School Board office. The fee for the , test is $15. For more information, call 987-8773. • Red Cross Collects Funds The Fauquier Chapter of the American Red Cross is now collecting flinds for African famine relief, according to H.T.A. Nevill, chapter chairman. This is part of a worldwide campaign by the League of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies to raise $37-million for emergency relief operations. The American Red Cross has set out to raise $5-million nationally, and is asking each of its chapters to contribute an amount equal to at least 8 percent of its 1964 income. For the Fauquier Chapter that would be approximately $600. According to the Red Cross, Africa is suffering its worst fomin* in this century as a result of a drought that has endangered 185 million people in 27 countries. In some places there has been no rain for two years. The League of Red Crass and Red Crescent Societies has already distributed 26,440 Urns of relief supplies, but because the famine has intensified the worldwide campaign for additional funds is necessary. Fauquier and Rappahannock citizens wishing to contribute should make out their checks to the Fauquier Chapter, American Red Crass, noting that they are for “African Famine Relief,” and mail them to: Fauquier Chapter, American Red Cross, 68 South Third Street, Warranted, Va. 22186.

Landfill Key Questions Are Environmental Impact And Alternate Sites a «- ii — it. ! jf - —KippMiBnnorK newt mow job ftpootwon Sign located on Route 621 one-half mile from proposed landfill site adds ironic twist. By JON HEDDLESTON Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer The decision whether or not to locate a county landfill on a 138-acre tract on Route 621 near Peyton Farm Estates hinges on two questions - and both could take some time to be answered. The questions: Will the proposed landfill location pass state-required tests to ensure environmental safety? Can Concerned Citizens of Rappahannock County (CCRC) counterplan with a “more suitable” location that members say they can find? Must Get On Land To determine the environmental suitability of the proposed landfill site, the county needs to gain access to the property for soil and water tests. Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke has researched the ways to gain access, and discussed them on November 27 during a telephone interview. Luke said he recommended that the Board of Supervisors hire a consultant with expertise in the area of engineering, soils and hydrology. Luke said this person will be able to work with him to answer some basic questions as to how extensive the testing will be and how long it will take. Luke then can use this information as a first step in determining the best way to proceed with condemnation. Luke said the county had begun advertising for the consultant in Rappahannock, Culpeper and Front Royal newspapers. He said the board could consider a candidate at its next regular meeting, December 3. Luke would not speculate on how soon a condemnation suit could be filed. “It would be a guess at this point as to when it’s going to be filed,” he said. The board will move forward with its plans to condemn the 138-acre tract. Contacted by telephone this week, board Chairman Richard Latham and Supervisor Hubert Gilkey III maintained that the site proposed is a good one. “This site in my opinion is a good one. It has a good buffer zone,” Supervisor Gilkey said. Gilkey co-chairs the board’s landfill/animal shelter subcommittee with Supervisor Nelson Lane. Gilkey added that Robert Foreman, solid waste control supervisor from Culpeper, said the site looked “very good” during a walk-through with Gilkey and Lane before the supervisors’ November 5 vote to condemn the property. Supervisor Gilkey said Mr. Foreman did not consider the site’s location between the Covington and Rush rivers a problem, because the landfill would be located in the center. Gilkey emphasized the importance of getting an engineer in to complete tests to determine if the landfill could cause water pollution. Supervisor Gilkey said he did not think accessibility to the proposed landfill location was a problem. “It’s no worse than the landfill going to Warren (Continued on Page 10) Planners Have Short Pre-Holiday Slate Bv JON HEDDLESTON ■MP«k—ork N«w»8UffWrtUr Rappahannock’s Planning Commission on November 21 faced a brief Thanksgiving Eve slate. Items of discussion were: • Request for public hewing. Planning Commission Chairman A.Y. Stokes reviewed aletter dataWovefo- - ber 7 from Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke. Chairman Stokes said the letter was a formal request from the Board of Supervisors asking the Planning Commission to conduct on December 19 a public hearing on the proposed landfill. Chairman Stokes said the supervisors were asking the planners to determine if the proposed location was in accord with the comprehensive plan. The planners then would pass their recommendation on to the supervisors. Planning Commissioner Newbill Miller said he would not be able to participate in the Planning Commission’s decision. The reason: He had been informed that one of his properties might be devalued 10 to 20 percent by the proposed landfill location. The Planning Commissioners also discussed whether or not a special-use permit, granted by the Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA), would be required for the landfill. Whether or not the county was exempt from a special-use permit was discussed, although no determination was made. Commonwealth’s Attorney Luke, interviewed by telephone on November 27, said it was his opinion the county would not be required to obtain a special-use permit from the BZA. Luke said his opinion was backed by the attorney general and the court, which ruled that Madison County in determining a landfill site did not need to acquire a special-use permit from the BZA. Luke said the reason for this ties into the right of eminent domain, the “greater power.” Phil Irwin of the Rappahannock League of Environmental Protection (RLEP) asked if it would be appropriate for the Planning Commission to recommend, alternate sites for the land-, fill “It seems with the comprehensive plan a recommendation might be appropriate,” the Flint; Hill resident said. Commissioner Werner Krebser responded, saying that it was up to the Board of Supervisors to provide the site and the responsibility of the Planning Commission to act as an advisory body. “We can’t initiate other sites unless they would ask us to,” Commissioner Krebser said. Other planners agreed. Planning Commissioner Charles “Pete” Estes, who is the supervisor/representative of the Planning Commission, told Irwin: “I think you’ll find the Board of Supervisors very receptive to an alternate site.” • Hunt club complaint. Zoning Administrator David Konick said that a letter of complaint had been received regarding a hunt club. Konick said the club was not from Rappahannock but leased land in the county for hunting. The complaint, he said, was from an adjoining landowner, who questioned whether or not leasing of the property made it a commercial use in violation of the zoning ordinance.. Konick told the planners that he had responded to the letter, explaining that the leasing did not constitute a commercial use. Konick said that if the owner of the property raised game, then leased the right to hunt the game that had been raised it would become a commercial use. He also compared the use to a trout farm as opposed to a pond. The trout farm in which fish are raised for sale was commercial; a pond where the owner did not raise fish for profit but allowed people to fish was not a commercial use, even if the owner was paid by people who fished there. Konick told the planners that the “person who fQe&'the. complaint may appeal his decision with the BZA, although the appeal would not be made at the November 28 BZA meeting. • Hand-blown (class recommended. The planners passed on to the BZA with recommendation an application and site plan request from an individual who wants to manufacture and retail hand-blown glass on Route 211 in Sperryville. ---■ The applicant has a contract pend- 4 ^ ing to purchase a tract zoned industrial and surrounded by commercial (Continued on Page 11) KidweUs Respond To Saltonstall Suit By JANE BANGLEY Rappahannock New* SUIT Writer Diane and Roger Kidwell of Flint Hill filed a demurrer in response to one of two suits brought against them by Patricia Sal tons tall of Points of View Farm in Flint Hill. The suits were filed on November 7, and the Kidwells filed the demurrer on November 27 in response to the wrongful death suit. The wrongful death suit was filed by Saltonstall on behalf of the estate of Ranee Spellman, foreman of Points of View Farm during a right of way dispute between the Kidwells and Saltonstall in 1982. Spellman was shot by Diane Kidwell on November 9, 1982, and she was found not guilty of murder by reason of self defense in 1983. Saltonstall is the person designated in Spellman’s will to administer the estate, and she asks in the wrongful death suit for $750,000 damages for the estate and Spellman's brother, Boyd. The demurrer filed by the Kidwells is a denial that the allegations of the suit, even if true, would legally constitute a cause for action. In the state of Virginia, a wrongful death suit can only be brought by the executor, or administrator, of the estate. The Kidwells state in the demurrer that Saltonstall did not bring the suit as executor of the Spellman estate, but as an individual. “The allegations of the Motion for Judgment make clear that all references to the Plaintiff (Saltonstall) are in her individual capacity and not as Executrix of said Estate and that in fact the statements made about the Plaintiff in her individual capacity are not true of the Plaintiff as Executrix of the Estate of Ranee Spellman,” stated the Kidwells in the demurrer. “Accordingly, no cause of action is alleged and Defendants (the Kidwells) are denied an opportunity to respond meaningfully to the Motion for Judgment.” The Kidwells are represented by Thomas V. Monahan of Hall, Monahan, Engle, Mahan and Mitchell Attorneys at Law in Leesburg. Forty-Three Take Bus To See ‘Amadeus’ Forty-three people took advantage of Rappahannock Library’s first theater bus trip November 13 to see ‘Amadeus.’ The trip was arranged by Truman Keesey of the library’s program board and Mrs. James P. Jamieson, library program chairman. The turnout for the event was near capacity; the bus chartered was limited to 45 people. “I think I missed a lot of fun,” offered Grace Sims, who worked at the library the afternoon of the excursion. “We’re sorry you missed the party,” was the message she got from many people who were able to go, shesaid. The bus departed the Town of Washington at 3 p.m., bound for K.B. Cinema Theatre at Bailey’s Crossroads. The performance took place from 5 to 8 p.m. During the return trip, participants enjoyed a picnic supper on the bus. Although not a true biography of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, “Amadeus” deals with many facets of his life. The Bound track comes alive with his music; opera scenes are numerous. Similar trips may be forthcoming, although no specific plans for a follow up have been announced to date. —JUfpriMMMck Ntwi PhataOaa ihMi “Amadeus” gang gathers prior to departure.

The director, Don Bomberger, who has two dozen previous plays in nearly 12 years of experience, sees this as one of the most interesting and exciting plays he has directed. The technological aspects are most challenging since the play requires many unusual timing and lighting effects, he says. The star, Tutt Stapp-Harris, has had professional training as have many other members of the cast. Stuart Eiland may be remembered in the role of the psychiatrist in “Harvey”, while Howard Coon has shared the stage in several local productions. Others in the cast include Jody Carbone, Vincent Hannon, Sean Kilpatrick, Tim Caliandro, Sherry Burke and Aney Massie. The general management of the production has been guided by Micheline Hostetter, president of the players, while Steve Hostetter has supervised the construction of the set and Maggie Longo has been stage manager. Others making major contributions include Sarah Shorter, Sam and Waldron O’Conner, Patti Myers, Pam Russell and Linda Heimstra. Tickets will be available at the door at $5 for adults and $3.50 for seniors and students. Parental guidance advised. No infants or tots will be admitted due to the dramatic nature of some scenes. For further information, call the office of the Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community (RAAC) at 675-3193. Deer Meal Requires There are a lot of myths concerning the proper ways to clean and store deer meat, and often hunters do not even think about proper methods until after the deer is bagged. Some procedures followed by most hunters may not be necessary in some circumstances. Bleeding the deer is a common practice. It may not be necessary if the animal was shot in a vital area and bled as it ran through the woods before it dropped. Remember to keep the carcass clean.

Also, it is not necessary to remove scent glands from the hind legs of bucks. Wyoming research has shown venison flavor is not affected by the intact glands. An important thing to remember is to start cooling the carcass as soon as possible by removing the intestines immediately. A good way is to prop the carcass on its back and tie the hind legs apart to make room for the abdominal cavity.

The carcass should be taken to a cooler if the night temperature does not drop below 40 degrees. A good tip is to carry a small meat saw capable of cutting through bone. Hatchets or axes can split pelvic and breast bones. In the interest of cleanliness, it is a good idea to carry a plastic sheet to do the skinning on. Use game bags to carry the butchered sections. Although many people believe otherwise, proper aging should take no more than a week under the right conditions. A cool place where the temperature is between about 32 and 38 degrees Fahrenheit is best. Aging takes less time in warmer places. Also, the age of the animal has a bearing on how long it will take the meat to become tender. The younger the animal, the less time.

The Landfill For Celka Prescott, Proposed Location Adds Another Nightmare In Dream Land By JON HEDDLESTON ■■mlmnwt Nm fluff Writer For Celka Prescott of Peyton Farm Estates, the proposed landfill site one-and-one-half mile from her home could be considered the straw that broke the camel’s back. Prescott, 55, has endured setback after setback in the 13 years it has taken her to build a dream home - alone. Her search for a “quiet, beautiful, clean” place to retire began 18 years ago. On weekends during a five-year period, Prescott looked at rural properties in West Virginia, Maryland and Virginia. “It was sort of a hobby to try to find the ideal place,” she recalled. The ideal place, she discovered, was a 10-acre tract just over three miles from the Town of Washington, a place this career administrator of adult-education courses at Catholic University in Washington, D.C. was certain she couldn’t afford. “When you work in education, you know you don’t get paid what other people get paid,” she said. Perfect In Spite Of Obstacle* Still, the place was perfect, she thought, in spite of financial obstacles. She sold a modest, two-bedroom house in Falls Church, Va., borrowed money from three friends and began in 1971 to build her new home. It wasn’t long before the pieces, like a foundation laid too shallow, began to fall apart. Only a month and a half into the job, the contractor she hired skipped town. With him went Prescott’s life savings, which she trustingly had given him in advance. The contractor hadn’t paid for any of the supplies being used to build her home. To pay for them alone, Prescott worked an "extra part-time job” for seven years. She was left without a home, and the one she was building didn’t even have a roof. Moreover, there was no well, no plumbing and no electricity. 1(sf^SaIcEstate 53.TSB EileenM.DaifmM.yoit DON’T FORGET CLOSING COSTS You have saved $20,000 and now want to buy a. home or condominium in the $100,000 range because you hear that you’ll need a 20% down payment.

We’re here to help. It was at this time Prescott said she learned firsthand of a second reason why Rappahannock was perfect: its people. Working as her own contractor, Prescott went to county craftsmen from then on, explained her situation and got nothing but help. "They all trusted me,” she recalled with eyes, like basins, swelled with tears. She said one worker, now retired, “did everything to save me money that he could,” which included working weekends for next to nothing. She moved into her unfinished home during a particularly cold October, soon to realize that her property with locust aplenty for firewood had yet to yield a single stack. She recalled going to Merrill’s Esso, now the location of the Washington Post Office, to ask where she might purchase some firewood. As was customary, a small crowd was gathered at Merrill’s, just talking. After getting the information she needed, she left, stopped briefly at Sloppy’s, then headed home. When she arrived, a stack of firewood already was unloaded. It took her months to find out who the good Samaritan was. "It was just a gift,” she said. “Robbed Four Timet” The help of neighbors was grand, but Prescott’s troubles had only begun. Her 80-mile commute to D.C. left her new home - at the time the last house on the road - wide open for burglaries. “I was robbed of everything in the place, even the vacuum cleaner,” she said. Again, friends from where she worked and neighbors from where she lived pitched in, giving her used appliances when they could. Her insurance company also gave “market value” for stolen items. A year and a half later, the same thing happened again. The second breaking, entering ar-| theft was “just as thorough,” die said. She added that, today, she keeps nothing of value in her home and is thankful that she’s not too materialistic. With the contractor’s crime, Prescott had been robbed three times.

Toe proposed landfill location has the potential of reducing the value of her property by “one-third,” she said. “I feel cheated. This seems to me almost the fourth time that I’ve been •ebbed.” Many Risks Prescott associated health rides and destruction of a pristine environment with the proposed landfill location. “Here we are with clean air and quiet. We’ve been assured the bulldozers will only work at night. Can you imagine looking at Venus with the bulldozers humming in the background?” she blurted. She said she is concerned about water and air pollution, an increase in traffic on Route 621 and litter she believes will fall off vehicles while people i drive to the landfill. “I’ve endured these 12 years, and commuted, with hope of coming out here. (This has been) my goal...Now that I’m here and could enjoy everything, I feel what I have aimed for may not all be here.” Leaning on a cane, Prescott alluded to the severe arthritis she has suffered three years, which led in August to a hip-joint operation. “When you’re in this type of condition, things are harder to take. I’m fortunate the Lord has given me some faith to accept whatever is given me.” Even though she retired two yeare ago, she continues to work part-time, teaching English at Wakefield School. “I’m supposed to have been retired. I will have to work until I can no longer work,” she offered. Prescott said she hopes county supervisors will change their minds. She noted the positive approach to alternative solutions other residents have initiated. She also noted the strength of family, in particular her mother, age 76, who lives in Bethesda, Md. After hearing of the proposed landfill site, Prescott said she called Mom. “I was crying. I said, *You won’t believe this, but....” Foster Earns Achievement Award Rappahannock County High ~ School eighth-grader Donna Foster recently was named a United States National Award winner for 1984, according to a press release issued by ( the United States Achievement Academy.

p AnMp jRappaflamtotfc jjrtMf •Nampapar EataMahad 1*77 PuMtoadCvaw'niiaadw MTNHIW. AMJMNL, PubHaDar JOMNT.TOUBI,Exac. VloaPraa. f THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 29,1994 ■ : t Reconsider, Please We hope the Board of Supervisors seriously will reconsider the selection of a 138-acre tract near Peyton Farm Estates for use as a county landfill. Our reasons for entering this debate early are numerous, but all stem from one word: People. First, the proposed landfill site is too dose to too many people, primarily people who live on Routes 621 mid 674. Perhaps anywhere else in the USA a mile or so wouldn't seem so dose. In Rappahannock, it's sneezing distance. And no one likes his or her shoulder sneezed on. Second, the proposed landfill site is too inaccessible to people. Even though the proposed site is only a few miles from Route 211, it may as well be a few dozen miles. Exiting Route 211 at Route 626, driving past Sursum Corda and on to the right turn at Route 621 is a roller-coaster ride. It’s driving that should be limited to ' thrill-seekers in Chevy Corvettes, not heavy-laden pickup trucks or worse yet - dump trucks. Access to Route 621 from the Shade Road is a horse of a different color-a palomino-colored dirt road. It’s, stnughter, but hffly. The natural ruts in the iriSad, ‘ combined “fcith loom gravel typical of such a road, bounce a vehicle around like a Conestoga wagon. Route 621 on either side of the proposed landfill site could be improved, of course. But we're still talking people, the money they earn and the taxes they pay. » Third, the proposed landfill site poses too many potential dangers to people, especially future generations. The property is between two rivers, the Covington and the Rush. How could we have forgotten the Rush River so quickly? People wade in those rivers, swim in them, drink from them (kids never grow up, really, no matter what they’re told.) Even with all the good intentions of members of the Board of Supervisors who will work to police any landfill site properly, contamination associated with landfills is a fact of life. People chisel. They dump things they're not supposed to. Examples have flitted to rest across the nation like so much litter. Where’s the right place? Is there a perfect place? Perhaps not-nobody wants a landfill nearby. The problem in Rappahannock is fundamental: It’s tough to find a spot that isn’t downright beautiful. Surely a more suitable location exists, though, a location that will serve people better. The road is long withmanya winding turn," a song goes, The song’s morale ' Help your brother. It looks like many people working together to find a solution to the landfill situation is the better way to go, albeit the road less traveled. Shocked By Landfill Decision To the editor We learned of Rappahannock County and its natural beauty from the writings of Mr. James Kilpatrick which appeared in our military newspaper in Japan during the 60’s. After retirement from the Navy in 1975, we spent a year searching for the right Northern Virginia location where our family could settle with a feeling of permanence after many moves. We remembered Rappahannock! Several realtors showed us properties and we were introduced to the Peyton Farms area by Mr. Newbill Miller, an excellent salesman of his county’s environmental advantages. Two weeks later we decided to buy that property, but it had already sold. Many people were anxious to buy in this development. Later we were thrilled to find a 10acre site on "Kinsey's High Hill,” the forested, 2,000 foot-wide ridge land bounded by the Rush and Covington Rivers toward the eastern end of Peyton Farm Estates. We built our home, became part of the county and planned to enjoy the beat of rural living America has to offer. Our younger daughter, Denise, attended Rappahannock High School for four years before going on to college graduation and a career. Our elder daughter, Diane, completed college and married. As Mr. and Mrs. James W. Wood they taught school locally. Because of their love of this land they purchased property on the same road and are building their home. We have a third generation (grandson) in Peyton Farms now and envision him living here someday as a respected, adult dtiCan you imagine our shock when we learned that the supervisors of this County had voted to condemn 138 acres of land which “fronts” on our Covington River upstream from Peyton Farms to use as a county landfill? The Covington and Rush Rivers are less than a mile apart in that area. The residents of Peyton Farms and others nearby are surrounded by those rivers! We all depend upon water wells of varying depths and/or ground springs for drinking. We all reside at lower elevation than the site. Many people in our development, including our daughter and fondly, are half-e-milo or closer to the site. The pollution possibilities for aO are a nightmare. Before moving to our “pTmaMpT location we looked carefully at the county map* and discussed the fact that no source of great pollution could be put between those two dose rivers upstream from us and, therefore, our water supply was as safe as possible. We supported other county residents in their fight to assure that the Rush River remained unpolluted. Clean rivers are vital. On this water-surrounded ridge which connects to this landfill site there are deer, fox, beaver, squirrel, chipmunks, opossums, skunks, groundhogs, rabbits, martin, dogs, horses, donkeys, goats, cattle. We have identified 53 kinds of birds on our woodlot including grouse, quail, and wild turkey. There are many more unidentified birds plus domestic fowl between these rivers. Our Covington River has fish, frogs, turtles as well as the aforementioned beavers. These creatures depend upon clean water. It is as if we humans are being forced to buy a large bottle of poison (the landfill) and pay for it with our own money (taxes) and then drink it (pollution) and watch it destroy us, our animals and our vegetation. The physical costs are too high. They may not be felt for many years, but eventually they will be felt. In the October/November issue of National Wildlife magazine, page 30, there is an article in which Kenneth Kamlet, director of the National Wildlife Federation’s Toxics Division says, “All landfills eventually leak...”. A landfill of this size and cost will be in use for many years. Monetary costs of this large landfill are heavy and will continue after site purchase to include condemnation costs for road widening purposes, road and bridge improvement costs, maintenance costs. This will cause monies to be delayed tor the county’s six-year road improvement plan. The reduction in property values of the highest assessed real estate area in the county will cause higher rates to be charged to others in order to maintain the present level of county tax income. What does the county receive in exchange tor this great expenditure of fimds? Answer A potentially poisoned heart of the county (two miles as the vulture flies from the town of Washington, Va.), two polluted rivers, a large polluted pond, contamination of a water supply for many people and many, many animals in this particularly frag_ile environment. I—Our Rappahannock Heritage Letters To The Editor Dietary Cho lesterol Article Misleading To the editor j The article quoted in the Rappahannock News by Extension Agent Birgitt Thornhill on dietary cholesterol is misleading and may give false comfort to the unwary reader. The article could not have been written any better by the Missouri cattle lobby. The pioneer work of Ancel Keys many years ago established the now unquestionable relationship between high cholesterol, high Jht diets and the increase in hardening of the arteries and cardiovascular disease in America. All present day treatments for the number ine kffler in this country (there ars now a million deaths a year from. ctttinnsculai^dfceasaO start with a low'cholesterol, low fat diet; i. e., the American Heart Association, the Pritikin diets. Many similar studies such as Dr. Flynn’s in Missouri have been done with similar groups or medical student (they seem to make the best guinea pigs). One at Harvard University took a group of normal students and placed them on a high-cholesterol, high-fat diet for 16 weeks. During this time, they were made to exercise in order to keep their normal body weight and their blood cholesterol remained normal The next 16 weeks they were not allowed to exercise while still on the same diet. The students gained weight, became sluggish and their blood cholesterol rose dramatically. The common denominator in the Harvard and the Missouri study was that the maintenance of normal body weight is an important factor in keeping blood cholesterol at a normal level. In the longest ongoing study of cardiovascular disease in America, the Framingham study, it has been found that the risk of developing high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease is eight times as great in the obese subjects than in persons with normal weight or less than normal weight. The Lipid (fiat) Research Clinic population studies data book at NIH in Bethesda, Md., demonstrates that as we grow older the average individual is overburdened by an increase in weight. It is important therefore to establish proper eating habits from an early age. It is simplistic to say that if your cholesterol is normal you can eat a high cholesterol diet. Weight is only one of the factors: cholesterol, fat, Cigarettes, and alcohol rank even higher. What is to be done with these self-indulgent, self-inflicting health-damaging factors? The present economic threat to social security and health care services and a great part of pur budgetary deficit can beeliminated if the tax on cigarettes and alcohol is increased commensurate with Ife&flanKfi age they produce. The buyer oTlhese products should pay not only for the product but also for the predictable damage they are sure to produce in the ftiture. Cardiac transplants, liver transplants, bypass operations, balloon angioplasty and many new techniques to rescue the profligate public will eventually bankrupt the health services. In 1971, B. F. Skinner, the eminent and controversial behavioral psychologist, asked the question in the book Beyond Freedom and Dignity: “Can we afford Freedom?” The answer in the year 2000 will be a resounding, “No” unless there is a radical change in the lifestyle of most Americans. Imposing legislated prohibitions is repugnant in a democracy such as ours yet limits will have to be place on the consumption of cigarettes, alcohol and even cholesterol if our way of life is to survive. The younger generation is already overburdened with the responsibility of the budgetary deficit for years to come. Their newly found conservatism may spill over into a more disciplined way of life which will spare them the ravages of these self-indulgent diseases and needless experimental surgery. BERNARD E. NUNEZ Castleton Some of us in our neighborhood have been derided aa “Outlanders”. We should be called “love-landers.” We ask the supervisors to consider alternate sites. We ask the supervisors to consider alternate methods of trash disposal. So much depends upon the wise decisions of the supervisors. Everyone in the county will be affected by the present plan and we ask support from all for reconsideration of this hastily planned project. DON AND MEG TUTHILL Washington What’s A Landfill Worth? To the editor Regirding the proposed landfill site on Route 621,1 would like to pose, for consideration of the Board of Supervisor! and the citizens of Rappahannock County, the following questions: 1. Is it worth upsetting the balance of nature by placing a sanitary landfill in one of the most scenic and pristine tracts in the county? 2. Is it worth the probable pollution of the Covington and Rush Rivera, the adjacent large pond, as well as the drinking water for much of the surrounding community? 8. Is it worth endangering our childrens' health, since the proposed site is located less than a mile from the County Elementary School? 4. la H worth the potentially harmfid hazards (vermin, odor, noise, disease) that a landfill will bring to a densely populated area? 6. Is it worth asking county citizens to fond such a Ihrge-acale project without prior public input and without pubbc knowledge of me overall plan? 1 6. Is it worth having the county fight lengthy lawsuits that will surely ensue if present plans are carried through? If the answer to any of the above is “no,” I would respectfully urge the Board of Supervisors to abuidon their present course of action, and to seek an alternate site and/or overall waste management plan. Surely, there must be a better and less costly solution to this important environmental problem. In closing, I would like to paraphrase an old world poem: 111 lares the land, to hastening ills a prey Where trash accumulates and wastes decay: Supervisors may flourish or may fade, A breath could make them as a breath has made; But a clean land, their county’s pride When once destroyed can never be revived. MIDGE FINNERTY Washington The Landfill Citizens9 Group Says Taxpayer Burden Is Just The Start By DELBERT PRICE CfcakasB, CCM The Concerned Citixens of Rappehannock County (CCRC) urge the supervisors to act now to drop their plan to condemn 138 acres of prime land on Route 621 for a sanitary landfill Consider, if you will, these facta: The cost to the taxpayers will be out of sight. Road-access problems alone are overwhelming. Highway Department officials assure us there is absolutely no precedent for state condemnation of right-of-way land on a graveled road. Thus, even if the required improvement fimds were available for Route 621, the county would have to pay for condemnation of that land. Moreover, say highway officials, no improvements can be expected in the dangerous approaches on Route 626. So going ahead with this site would mean extremely dangerous access for users, or prohibitive costs for taxpayers — or both. And what about taxpayer costs for preparing this site, assuming that is even technically possible? As our ad in this issue of the News points out, these costs alone are likely to be burdensome in the extreme. Those enormous taxpayers costs are just the start. The cost of acquiring 138 acres of prime land by condemnation against determined opposition in the courts is both forbidding and unnecessary. The effort to locate the fill in the midst of the highest-valued land in the county also seems difficult to justify. Rappahannock Revenue Commissioner Merle Scoggin reports that about 21 million dollars in assessed real estate would undergo a sharp drop in market values. All property owners would be called upon to make up the revenue loss. A poll we have just done of revenue commissioners in nearby counties shows interesting results: The commissioners agree that locating a landfill in high-value land can be expected to have a massive impact on land values and revenues. But every neighboring county has avoided that disaster by locating its landfill in an area of low-value acreage, or in areas assessed at rockbottom under land-use plans. If that is not enough, consider these factors: ■ ■-*"-* ■ 1. It is a mistake to locate a land/" fill several miles down a'narrow, winding secondary road. In Culpeper County, the highest consideration was given to finding a site that was within one-half mile of a primary road. In Albemarle County, a landfill was located approximately nine miles down a secondary road. Several years later, the City of Charlottesville and Albemarle County each had to put up $600,000 to purchase rights-of-way and improve the road. 2. Thought should be given to ultimate reuse potential for landfill property, to reduce the impact of the costs to the taxpayers. Many landfill sites have been converted to recreational areas after closure. The site should be located so that such uses would be feasible. 3. The Soil Conservation Service advises that the soil types on the majority of the proposed site are unsuitable for sanitary landfills. We believe that to design a safe, secure solid waste disposal system on a marginal or unsuitable area would be exorbitantly expensive. 4. Rappahannock should look to other counties and see what they have done. Many jurisdictions that have successfully located landfills have involved the public in the design of siting criteria and screening of possible sites. This is especially important ~ in Rappahannock County, which has no professional staff to advise the Boafd. For example, Culpeper did extensive analysis of 40 sites, including actual excavation and soil analysis, before a final decision was reached. Public comment and help was an important part of their process from the beginning. We should recognize from the beginning that siting of landfills will be a difficult decision, will take time, and there is nothing to be gained from a secretive approach. 5. There have been other sites looked at which, according to Robert Foreman of the State Department of Health, could probably have obtained preliminary approval. In addition, the present site near Woodville could probably be expanded and continued, according to Foreman, if the land arrangements could be worked out. CCRC has identified several tracts which do not have the potential for environmental degradation, negative impact on existing housing values and unsafe access associated with the proposed site. At least one such site has a willing seller. 6. The location of a landfill in an area which requires extensive road improvements will have a negative effect on those road improvements already set forth in other areas of the County in the current six-year plan, if monies from the County’s road budget are diverted to the landfill access roads, other road improvements will have to be pushed back in priority. It is for this reason, ip addition to safety and convenience, that a landfill should be located where proper access is readily available. The county’s proposal to acquire the property on Route 621 for a landfill was made on November 5 with no opportunity for public discussion. Since that time, much information has come to light which clearly shows that a landfill would be inappropriate in this area. We urge the Board of Supervisors to withdraw this site from further consideration. The county should then proceed in an orderly, open manner, with public support, to come up with an acceptable solution to this problem. Needs Many Questions Answered To the editor I am writing regarding the proposed landfill site on Route 621. Since a sanitary landfill will have serious and long lasting impact on the ecology of Rappahannock County and on the lifestyle of its citizens, I am curious to know how much planning went into the decision to acquire a landfill and what changes such a landfill would make to our present trash disposal system. Were other options explored, such as upgrading the present WoodviUe site to meet State requirements; contacting adjacent counties to lease landfill space; joining with neighboring communities to study the feasibility of using available technology to turn waste into energy, thereby eliminating the need for landfills entirely. Were any cost analyses made as to the price of buying 188 acres of prime real estate, condemning access rights into it, fighting lawsuits from irate landowners, upgrading the site to meet state standanls and maintaining same versus the cost of alternate disposal methods or sites? In a county that is fast losing substantial portions of its tax revenues to newly-formed agricultural and forestal districts, is it wise to devalue a community that currently provides a major source of tax income? Where will the money come from for such a large-scale project, when we already have difficulty funding smaller and equally important projects? Are the people of Rappahannock County prepared for a major tax increase to ftind such a project? Assuming that after all the above options have been frilly explored and a decision is made to place a sanitary landfill in the County, what is the master plan for trash disposal? Will the present dumpster sites remain in place and the landfill be limited to dumpster trucks only, or will the dumpsters be removed and the landfill open to all? If there are no dumpster sites, will people be willing to haul trash long distances to a landfill? For instance, people living in Chester Gap face a round trip of over 80 miles to the pro posed site. If trash removal is provided by private companies, will people be faced with losing the convenience of the dumpster sites, as well as paying monthly fees for trash disposal? Are a dog pound and animal disposal area planned for the landfill site, and will, such use comply with State law? Other than its central location, what makes the proposed site on Route 621 so attractive? Is it its proximity to and drainage into the Covington River on one side, a large pond that flows into the Rush River on the other side, its being less than one mile from the County Elementary School on a third side, and its adjoining a heavily populated community on its remaining downstream side that makes it the best location in Rappahannock County for a landfill? I believe that any of the questions raised above would be important enough to merit the careful consideration of all the citizens of Rappahannock County and to have their informed consent before any action is taken by the Board of Supervisors to condemn this site for a landfill. I would respectfully request the supervisors to carefully consider the impact of their proposed actions on Rappahannock County for the long term and to not act in haste or for the sake of expendiency. Since they acted wisely in resolving the recent Harris Hollow issue, I am hopefill that they will act in a similar manner in this far more environmentally threatening situation. JOSEPH W.

Getting To Know Rappahannock’s School Board Massie Sees Advances In Education By JANE BANGLEY Rappahannock N«wa Staff Writer Beverly Massie has been a member of School Board for 12 years, and she has seen the school system make advances in all areas of education. She is the representative on the Board from Jackson District, and she has been the chairman of the Board since 1977. She is also Rappahannock’s representative on the board of the Piedmont Technical School. “We have made great strides in the field of special education, and have made the community more aware of the needs of the educational process in the county,” Massie said. “I have seen many students from Rappahannock achieve real educational goals of not only going on to college, but in the work world as well.” Knowing that Rappahannock students are doing well makes Massie even more eager to see the Board help in the education process. “I’d like to be able to offer the best education that the county can afford,” said Massie. <■ Massie is concerned about funding for the school system, and about the standing of the “average” student. “The way that the state bases a county’s ability to pay on the composite index needs to be reviewed,” said Massie. “That has been a disadvantage to our county and to all rural areas because land value is a misrepresentation at times.” Massie suggests instead that the state should base its determination of the need for funds on the income tax of individuals. Massie’s concern for the “average” student stems from the attention that handicapped and gifted and talented students receive. “A lot of good things have been done in those programs, but I’m concerned that the ‘average’ student is being shortchanged,” said Massie. “The ‘average’ children are the ones who will be the main supporters of any tax system in the country, and therefore I think that their education needs to be the best that can be provided.” The future of the Board and what it can achieve looks bright to Massie, though. She is looking forward to the expansion project at the high school becoming a reality as the Board has been working towards that goal since 1975. Beverly Massie “I have great anticipation of even more fruitful work from the Board in that now I think we will see more stability,” Massie said. “I have served 12 years with a lot of different people due to great transition on the Board, but now I think that things are settling down.” Massie said that continuity on the Board is the best way to learn what the problems are, and the best way to meet goals. Massie is also pleased with the administrative staff from Superintendent Robert Estabrook to the guidance counselors at the schools. She is also proud of the dedication of the teachers in Rappahannock, although she is concerned about securing science and math teachers. Massie’s two children graduated from Rappahannock High. “I worked with the PTA’s and participated as a parent while they were in school, so I can see the schools from a parent’s viewpoint as well as from the standpoint of serving on the Board and the administrative running of the schools,” Massie said. Massie is proud of the advances made in Rappahannock education, and of what students have achieved. "The county has much to be proud of in the young people today,” Massie said. “I look forward to having the support of the community in the education of today and tomorrow.” Call 675-3349 to place an ad ■ — » . 11 i" * •• i f ..i «, i"* ■ < ■ n •%, -i r Academic Improvement Important To Nichols Paul Nichols served on the School Board for 20 years representing Wakefield District. After a break of about tour years, Nichols returned to the Board a year and a half ago. He has seen a lot of changes in the school system, and he thinks that the Board has done a good job through the years. "When I went on the Board, we had 11 schools to oversee with the maintenance and teachers involved,” said Nichols. "We have gone from that to a consolidated school system.” Improvement of the county's academic standards, and the encouragement of parental support are important to Nichols. "I think that the Board can encourage parental support and the parents’ interest in their children’s activities, and parental participation in school activities,” said Nichols. "I’d also like to see the improvement of the educational standards that we have, but not necessarily expanding the curriculum beyond the needs of the students.” When Nichols speaks on the subject of parental involvement in the schools, he speaks from experience. He and his wife Charlotte, a physical science teacher at Warren County Junior Paul Nichols High, have four children. Three graduated from Rappahannock High, and their daughter Leslie is a freshman this year. "Parents have to be aware of what their children are doing, and encourage them to do what should be done,” Nichols said. Nichols said that he is pleased (Continued on Page 111) Updike Pleased With Board’s Accomplishments Randall Updike has been on the School Board for two years, and he takes his work on the Board seriously. He is Hampton District’s representative, and he is pleased with what the Board has done in the two yean he has been a member. “We have made big strides in the past year as far as the capital outlay program for the high school is concerned which is a great accomplishment for the Board and the county,” Updike said. “The high school renovation and addition will be started next year, thanks to Supervisors and their great cooperation and support on the budget.” Updike is also proud of the index pay system for the teachers, and the new roof for the elementary school. The most important concern of the Board to Updike, though, is the children themselves. “We have the responsibility to provide for the youngsters the best possible education through providing Randall Updike the best possible personnel and adequate facilities,” Updike said. “I feel good about the achievement of the students as seen in competitive test scores (Continued on Page 11X v„i!f, , Oliver A Newcomer To Board Stonewall/Hawthorne District’s representative on the School Board has served for nearly a year. Bill Oliver said that in that year the Board has made progress in important areas. “We instituted an index to the salary scale for the teachers that the teachers have asked for for some time,” Oliver said. “It wasn’t exactly as the teachers wanted or how the Board wanted, but we compromised and .reached an agreement.” The index gives a starting salary for teachers and the) increases for each year of teaching experience. Oliver is also pleased that the high school expansion project is closer to becoming a reality. “I feel good about the architecural firm that we have contracted with, and I’m looking forward to what they will come up with to meet our space needs,” Oliver said. “I’d like to see the expansion project accomplished in a manner that will give the necessary expansion in classroom and lab space, and allow us to have a separate auditorium.” Oliver noted that the Board plans to use the present gym/auditorium at the high school in some capacity. Oliver has three children, and his Bill Oliver eldest graduated from Rappahannock High last year. One of his children is a junior at the high school, and another will be a freshman next year at Rappahannock. “I’d like to see Rappahannock have a high quality of education offered to its students, and accomplish that in the most economical manner possible that will still be fair to personnel.” Reeve Wants To Encourage Parental Involvement Nancy Reeve has been Piedmont District’s representative on the School Board for five years. During that time, she has determined certain areas in education that are important to her and that she thinks the School Board can try to make a difference in. One of those areas is parental involvement in the school system. "Parents tend to get less involved hi the schools as their children get older,” Reeve said.

The music and dancing added up to fim for all ages at the sock hop. Sock Hop A Success By JANE BANGLEY ■^prt—<*riiMWdnriihi A sock hop held at the elementary school on November 16 and sponsored by the Rappahannock Student Parent Teacher Association (SPTA) provided Am for those who attended, and additional ftinds for the SPTA. Approximately 250 parents and children attended the event, and the SPTA collected an estimated $275. The money will be used for projects that the SPTA decided to do through the year. *Tbe kids really had a good time, and I think that they need events like this,” said Emma Swatman, public relations officer for the SPTA. “The kids are so regulated during the day, and things like this dance give them the chance to mingle and get to know one another better.” Richard Smith, a fifth grade teacher, was named king of the sock hop, and second grade teacher Sheila Smith was named queen. The king and queen were determined by the number of their home room students who attended the dance. The disc jockey was Ronald Bennett, and he is a parent who donated the use of his sound system and music tor the dance. Sandra Parker coordinated the food, which was donated by parents, and Sharon Ferrence coordinated ticket sales. “We want to give special recognition to the clean-up crew of Mike Cotter and Butch Parker,” said Swatman. The next meeting of the SPTA will be on December 13 at 7:30 p.m. at the elementary school. Commodity Options Now Available For the first tune since the 1930s, farmers this month will be able to buy and sell commodity options, giving them a new method to market their harvests. Options provide farmers with s kind of “insurance policy” on prices. An options contract lets growers fix a minimum price. The contract gives the right, but not the obligation, to sell at that price. That way, farmers can take advantage of any price increase in the cash market. It is all part of a two-year pilot project set up by the Commodity Futures and Trading Commission. Options were done away with in the early 1930b because of a lack of regulations, but that is not the case with the new system. The Commission will oversee the exchanges which are trading the new options. One example of how options work is a cotton grower, who buys an option to sell at 70 cents a pound. If prices drop below 70 cents at harvest, he could sell the option at a gain because the value of the option will increase when the prices fall. Exchanges are scheduled to begin trading options by the end of October on soybeans, corn, cattle, hogs, wheat, and cotton. Farmers need to learn and understand commodity options and determine if they are applicable to their farming needs. Farmers considering an option should figure costs of production, including the cost of the option itself, which is called a premium. The next step is to develop an asking price for the product, and decide if the profit made at the price in the option would be satisfactory. Paperwork is involved, as in any financial figuring. Anyone interested in learning more about options, please contact the Extension Office. An educational session will be set up if there is enough interest. -Rappahannock Newt PhottVlaae Barley RCHS Principal Robert Chappell announces students who received academic honors.

He added it would be nice if all of 621 were hard surfaced, but he was not sure if that was a requirement. He did not anticipate problems with the state picking up the tab for road improvements via the six-year plan. Supervisor Gilkey did express concern, however, over gaining right of way to allow for widening of Route 621. liie state has a 30-foot right of way (15 feet on each side) already; the State Highway Department has a policy of not commiting to such improvements unless a 50-foot right of way is available, Gilkey said. Property owners would have to grant the additional right of way, something CCRC members have said they will not do. Will Consider Alternates Board Chairman Latham, Supervisors Gilkey and Charles “Pete” Estes each said this week they would consider alternate site proposals brought forward by CCRC. “I wouldn’t turn thumbs down on anything reasonable,” Latham said, adding, “I think the present site is reasonable.” Supervisor Estes said during the Planning Commission meeting November 21: “I think you’ll find the Board of Supervisors very receptive to an alternate site.” Supervisor Gilkey said he was not opposed to looking at more sites. He added, however, that two sites brought to his attention by a CCRC member were not suitable in his opinion. One he believed only had 20 of 50 acres suitable for use due to slope of the land and rock outcroppings. The other Gilkey said was about 60 acres located off Route 211, which would require condemnation of a three-quarter mile right of way and complete construction of a road. Gilkey expressed concern over construction costs of the road that would be required. Still, Supervisor Gilkey maintained that he was not skeptical of CCRC’s ability to find another location. “I know they’re making efforts...I can understand their concerns.” Other Concerns CCRC members have noted other concerns, among them: real estate values; elimination of dumpster sites; location of an animal-shelter facility on the proposed landfill site. Homeowners in the immediate area of the proposed site, primarily Peyton Farm Estates, hold the second highest valued properties in the county, according to Commissioner of Revenue, Merle Scoggin. Currently an acre in Peyton Farm Estates is accessed at $3,000, second only to tax assessments in the Town of Washington.

Estimates by local realtors of devaluation of properties in the Peyton Farms area should the landfill be located there range from 20 to 30 per cent. If devalued, property owners would pay 1ms in taxes following reaccessment due to be completed within a few years. Whether or not dumpster sites will be eliminated when a county landfill is operable cannot finally be determined until a vote is cast by members of the Board of Supervisors.

Said Chairman Latham: “It seems to me it would be an awful burden” to citizens if dumpster locations were eliminated. When asked if the county could maintain the cost of the dumpster operation, Chairman Latham said he believed the coet would come down considerably once dumpster maintenance was put up for bid. “Any competition you have would help (lower costs),” he said. Chairman Latham said he shared the concern of residents who believe elimination of dumpsters would lead to “unofficial” dumping sites. When told some residents were sure the dumpsters would be dropped, he responded, “I don’t know how it got to be the plan unless a vote was taken that I wasn’t aware of.” Once the landfill is in place, however, Chairman Latham agreed that any one of three scenarios could develop: The county could keep dumpster locations if affordable; residents could pay for their own trash collection by private contractors; residents could take their own waste to the landfill site. Whether or not an animal shelter will be placed on the landfill also remains undecided. The landfill/animal shelter subcommittee name at least implies that the two will coexist. Said Chairman Latham: “No decision (has been made). First, we’ve got to get the landfill and get it into operation.” Said Supervisor Gilkey in regard to the combination: “That is the plan of the board, or what I’m working toward: That this would be the site for the animal shelter, too.” —LOST— in Jefferson ton-Amissville area... 10 year old mate Boston Terrier & Hound mixture.

School Board (Continued from Page 5) Nichols with the school system in Rappahannock, and he sees his children as examples of what former Rappahannock students can achieve. “If our children can get into the most difficult fields of work, then anybody can if they take advantage of what Rappahannock has to offer,” Nichols said. Nichols said that the county should be proud of its school system, and that any graduate of Rappahannock High is as prepared for college as another graduate from any school in the state. Improvement is always possible, though, and Nichols thinks that the Board should be aware of the concerns of students and teachers. One of the areas that Nichols would like to see the Board become involved with is the retention of teachers. “That is a problem universally in public education, and the Board can be concerned and try to help teachers find places to live,” Nichols said. “It’s so rural here that it’s hard for the teachers to find places to live, and a list of places to rent could be kept on file at the School Board office to aid Rappahannock teachers in finding a place to live in Rappahannock.” Nichols said that the Board is working together, and has been successful in improving the math and science departments. “We have gotten computers and other things that weren’t available before for the schools,” said Nichols. “I don’t like people to knock the schools because we have a good system.” Reeve and suggestions from parents,” Reeve said. “We would like to have ideas on how to better parental involvement, and to find out what’s blocking some parents from taking an interest in the schools.” Reeve is aware of the parent’s side of the issue, too, since she is the mother of five children. Three of her children attend Rappahannock schools now. One of her children is in high school, and two attend the elementary school. “I can empathize with some of the frustrations that parents go through,” she said. Another area that the School f,- • ? Board is working on that Reeve considers important’ is the development of a comprehensive curriculum for the schools. Reeve said that it is a hard job to develop a curriculum that flows from kindergarten through grade 12. “We also have to make the new curriculum fit into the curriculum that we already have, and the development of curriculum is not as easily visible as expanded labs or facilities but is very important.” Reeve is proud of Rappahannock schools, and their students and teachers. “Our schools are not fancy, but if you look at a lot of systems our size you’ll see that we have a lot to offer,” Reeve said. “I think that parents and students need to continue to think positively about the schools, but that doesn’t mean that they shouldn’t also bring up their concerns and things that they would Bke to see changed.” Reeve said that Rappahannock’s teachers are the'system’s major asset. “I am proud of our teachers as I look at how much they give in the way of individual attention to students, and their high level of dedication,” said Reeve. “I feel warmly about the Board as a group,” said Reeve. “We work well with each other and the administration, and we don’t always agree but we can reach a majority opinion on mattora ” Updike and the quiz team from the high school.” Updike sees the Board’s role in helping students to achieve as helping the educators. “The way I see myself and the others is that we are to act as a board on all matters,” said Updike. “We certainly have a lot of unity on the Board because we’re pulling together for the common cause of good education.” Updike has three children, and his oldest will start school in Rappahannock next year. He believes that the students from Rappahannock can compete with students from any other school division. “Being on the Board is challenging and time consuming, but it’s also rewarding to see the school division grow and the students achieving,” Updike said. “I want to lend support in the building of the best possible school division.” ..

Library ‘Story Hour’ Begins Fourth Week Story Hour at the Rappahannock County Library on December 5 will enter its fourth week of a six-week program, and the series promises more fiin and entertainment for youngsters before its December 19 finale. Story Hour is a quarterly series for preschool-age children, which is sponsored by the library. The fall series now taking place is conducted on Wednesday mornings from 10 to 11. Generally, volunteers who conduct story hour read a story during the first half hour, then work with the children to create crafts during the second half hour. A recent example: Children listened to a Thanksgiving story before creating their own decorative turkeys out of paper lunch bags. To date, eight children have participated in the program each week, Librarian Grace Sims said. The first three story hours were conducted by Christine Sims, April Heddleston and Margaret Baumgardner, Mrs. Sims added. Remaining Story Hour programs are scheduled for December 5, 12 and 19. Sandra Jenkins, Maggie Rogers and Mary Tauss are due to lead the respective programs, Mrs. Sims said. The Series will conclude December 19 with a Christmas party for the preschoolers; Mr. S. Claus from the North Pole is scheduled , to make an appearance, Mrs. Sims noted. Wakefield’s J.V. And Middle School Complete Soccer Season Wakefield’s junior varsity and Middle School (grades 6-9) soccer teams completed their fall schedule with important wins over strong rivals to compile balanced win/loss records of 5-5-0 and 2-2-1 respectively... Both teams started slowly as stronger players filled in position vacancies and adapted to a stronger schedule of opponents. The junior varsity team had close, tough losses to Tandem, Randolph Macon, and Linton Hall and bounced back with outstanding wins against St. Anne’s Bellfield, Woodberry Forest, Tandem and Lin-BBT HaH. Tilt* "flnalr "Victorious game last week against Linton Hall ntarked the first time Wakefield bad ever defeated this traditionally strong soccer school. The Middle School season was highlighted by wins over Grymes and Highland, both wins occurring at the opponents’ home fields. Outstanding performances for the two teams were turned in by Jeff Reid and 'Matthew O’Herron in goal, Brian McGushin at fullback and goal, Chris Bishopp at halfback, Bjorn Lindholm at halfback, Morgan Andreae at halfback, and Mike King, Jeff Rozic, Carey Maar, John Latell, and Robyn Battaile on the line.

Planning Commission (Continued from Page 1) properties. The tract is owned by Commissioner Estes, who did not participate in the decision. “If it complies with the site plan, I don’t see any problem with it,” Commissioner Miller said. Other planners agreed, and the application was recommended unanimously to the BZA. • Won’t consider appeal. The Planning Commission opted to make no recommendation in regard to two special-use permits held by Patricia Saltonstall Flint Hill. The special-use permits apply to adjacent lots on Saltonstall’s property. One lot has a structure on it already; the second lot originally was to allow a similar stucture to be built. The structure already completed recently was ruled by the BZA to be a multi-family structure. The BZA ruled the structure was out of compliance with the zoning ordinance. The supervisors subsequently agreed, and said Sal tons tall could not build another similar structure. Saltonstall’s request, according to Zoning Administrator Konick, was to be granted permission to build the second structure for which she already held the special-use permit and to have the structure already built approved. Commissioner Miller said that the situation was currently under litigation and would be decided by the courts. “I think it would be rediculous for us to get involved,” he said, before putting “no recommendation” into the form of a motion. The motion passed unanimously. • Agricultural/forestal district. The planners motioned that an application for an agricultural/forestal district located in Wakefield District go to public hearing before the Planning Commission December 19. There are three applicants; one was Commissioner Krebser, who did not participate in the decision. USED CAR SALE Largest Selection of Quality Used Cars in the Area!

Roy Lee A Martha Knighting spent their happy, turkey day with Martha’s sister and her family down in Richardsville, Virginia. This is a traditional event in which they all appreciate. Mae Kenney, Martha’s sister, roasted the tasty turkey while her husband, Howard, and their children waited patiently. They were joined by Martha’s daughter ft son, Debbie and Alan, and Alan’s wife, Kathy and their 2Vi year old daughter, Brandy. They spent their contented day being lazy. In our fast paced lives, what could be more luxurious!! Little Brandy went wild over the “Atari” with the Kenney children. Yes, the age of electronics! The chopping, stacking, and burning of wood was all part of the lovely Thanksgiving holiday for George and Iris Beebe. Their daughter, Cynthia and her husband, Bryan Brower, came for the special occasion from Audobon, Pennsylvania. Their daughter, Jennette from Rockville, Maryland, also arrived in time for the fun. What a nice time they all had savoring the food. Mr. and Mrs. Murphy Reid were happy to have Murphy’s mother from Culpeper over for a few days. They all dined on a delicious ham for Thanksgiving, along with their daughter, Kim and her husband Paul Novak. The men worked on their trucks in between feasting, and they all really enjoyed themselves. They received a surprise call from Japan - their daughter, Beverly Bliss! She’s married to David who’s in the Air Force and stationed in Yakota Air Force Base, Japan. They both like it there but get a little homesick around the holidays. The Bliss’s have two children, Aaron age 4 years, and Kellie who’s not quite 1 year old. Mrs. Murphy has never seen her granddaughter and is looking forward to the day when they come to visit. You’ll never believe what the Schoppet’s & Tribino’s did for Thanksgiving? They ate dinner in a restaurant!! Yep! That’s what they did!! They had a party of 11 relatives and reservations at the Bavarian Inn in Shepherdstown, West Virginia. Richard’s parents, his brother Charlie and his family, Nancy’s parents, the Smith’s, her brother, Jimmy, and daughter Pamela who came home from college for some home cooking. Poor kid!
