But luckily the scouts were treated to anything but a Freeze-O-Ree. It was more like a heatfest, with temperatures in the 60’s and 70’s. Hot or cold, Rappahannock scouts brought glory to the county by winning big in the competition at the Freeze-O-Ree, which included scout troops from Rappahannock, Shenandoah, Page and Warren counties. On a site near Route 211, east of Massie’s Comer, Rappahannock troops placed high in all the competitive events: Troop 123 placed first in the orienteering event in which scouts had to follow a compass course and be judged for accuracy. Troop 36 tied for third in the nature hunt, which required that scouts hunt down such items as locust bark, honeysuckle, dogwood berries and deer droppings. Newly revived troop 50 of Amissville placed third in the overall campsite inspection competition. In all, 12 boy scout troops and 2 cub scout packs attended the festivities, which brought the total number of boys to 142. 36 scout leaders were present. Paul Nichols directed the camporee.

Section 10-62B of the State Code makes it unlawful to set fire to brush, leaves, grass, debris -- or other inflammable material capable of spreading fire - within 300 feet of any woodland or brushland except between the hours of 4 p.m. and 12 midnight. The law will be in effect seven days a week and it applies to such things as camp fires, the burning of brush piles, household trash, stumps, fields of grass or any type of fire capable of spreading. “The law is an effective and good fire prevention measure because after 4 p.m. when temperatures are lower accompanied by higher humidity and decreasing winds, the chance of a fire spreading is lessened,” said Rappahannock’s chief forest warden Clifton W. Jenkins. He noted that the law is seasonal, applying only during those months when the danger of forest fires is more critical. The following fire laws are in effect year round: 1) A fire built within 150 feet of woodlands (or any other material capable of spreading a fire) must be totally extinguished before it is left unattended. 2) Reasonable care and precaution must be taken prior to any open burning. 3) Any time a fire escapes into woodlands or brushlands as a result of carelessness, negligence or by intention, the person responsible is liable for the expenses of putting out the fire. Jenkins said that the best time to bum is on damp days, and also that the sheriff should be notified prior to any massive burning While these state laws may seem complicated, they have a purpose since the vast majority of forest fires are caused by man, Jenkins noted. For additional information on forest fire laws, contact Jenkins at 987-8837, or Rappahannock County Forester William Vemam at (703) 347-7989. • Bland Contest Shows Off Talent The Bland Music Contest, sponsored by the Rappahannock Lions Club, featured talented students in both the vocal and instrumental categories as well as in the new, country ballad category.

The planners made the recommendation during their regular meeting on February 20 after long deliberation over the details of Mr. Bowers’ case. Zoning Administrator David Konick, whose resignation goes into effect March 1, opened the discussion by announcing Bowers’ application for a special userpermit to have a dwelling unit in a commercial building. The building, in which Bowers conducts his business - Blue Ridge Guns Inc. - is in Amissville off Route 211. When fire destroyed the original building in 1982, Bowers was granted a temporary special use permit allowing him to live in a trailer on the condition that he begin construction of a permanent home within one year. Bowers and his family had been living in the back of his commercial building. At the end of a 90-day extension to the permit, Bowers had neither begun construction on a permanent home nor removed the trailer from his property, thus violating the zoning ordinance, according to Konick and the planning commissioners. Reached by phone and asked why he didn’t begin construction of a home as agreed. Bowers said he didn’t have the money to build and so he moved back into living quarters in the back of his commercial building, which by that time was rebuilt. That is where he and his family have continued to live. Bowers has recently applied for a special use permit, after learning that such application is required to maintian a dwelling unit in a commercial building. According to Konick, Bowers has been in violation of the Zoning Ordinance ever since moving back into his rebuilt commercial structure. The reason Bowers was allowed to live in the building prior to the fire, said Konick, was because such practice qualified as a “non-conforming use” of their commercially zoned property. It did so because Bowers had lived in the building prior to enactment of the ’73 zoning ordinance, which disallows the construction of a dwelling unit in a commercial building for anyone other than a caretaker or a watchman. Since the law cannot be enforced retroactively, Konick said that Bowers was allowed to maintain his residence in his original commercial building. After the fire, when applying for a permit to rebuild, Bowers claims that Konick told him he would be able to move back into his building if he had to because he had lived there before the fire. “Now he (Konick) is saying I can’t.” Konick said in a phone interview that, at that time, he had never even spoken to Mr. Bowers, but to Mrs. Bowers about the matter. “I pointed out to her that they (the Bowers) would need a special use permit if they wanted to put a dwelling unit in their new7 building.” Konick noted to them that since the old building was completely destroyed, the new one would have to comply with the ’73 zoning ordinance, meaning that the Bowers’ past practice of living in their commer(Continued on Page 3) Rappahannock Point-To-Point.. Hectic Pace Marked Assembly By SEAN ADAMS Arundel Newspaper! Staff Writer RICHMOND — The 1985 General Assembly that slipped into history Saturday night will be remembered as much for its hectic pace and sometimes nasty battles as it will for what may be a historic realignment that bodes well for Northern Virginia. Like their counterparts from other areas, local legislators were caught up in battles over uranium mining, a coal slurry pipeline, abortion, mandatory seatbelt legislation, the state budget and other bills that the assembly considered in the 46-day session. But perhaps the most bitter battle, and one that occasionally turned to personal attacks in the usually gentile assembly, was over the bill that will change the way the state allocates highway money to localities. The bill, called the “Manning compromise” after its sponsor, Del. L. Cleaves manning (D-Portsmouth), was signed into law Friday by Gov. Charles S. Robb, who said it was “one of the most important pieces of legislation... m a long time. Legislators said the realignment was best evident in the votes on the highway bill, when urban and suburban lawmakers from the Tidewater, Richmond and Northern Virginia areas joined to form a coalition that was victorious over the rural legislators who once controlled the assembly. “For the first time we have seen the shift of power go from the rural areas to the suburban and rural areas/’ said Del. Kenneth B. Rollins (R-Fauquier/Loudoun). “It’s been coming for a long time.” “I think the big feature has been the realignment,” agreed Del. Robert T. Andrews (R-Loudoun/Fairfax), particularly with respect to road funding. “It’s been coming.” Change comes slowly, lawmakers noted, and not without often nasty fights, particularly when money is involved. “It’s been on the verge of personal confrontation and attacks from time to time,” Sen. Charles L. Waddell (DLoudoun/Fairfax) said. “But we try to avoid that.” Senate Minority Leader William A. Truban (R-Fauquier/Clarke) said it was probably the most bitterly fought session since he took office in 1971. (Continued on Page 3) Horses And Hounds On Your Mark! By CLIVE CARNIE Democrat Staff Writer The quiet hillside pastures of Thornton Hill Farm in Sperryville will resound with the thunder of hooves and the cheers of spectators this Saturday as the Virginia point-to-point season moves into Rappahannock Hunt territory. This will be a very important meet for the hunt as proceeds from the races will go toward completing the hunt’s new kennels located on the farm beside the race course. Racing begins at the picturesque farm with the hunter pairs at 10:30 a.m. At noon the jump races begin with a card of nine races, including a unique race for foxhounds. “Everything’s looking great,” Eva Dahlgren, joint chairman of the races, said of the course Monday. “If the weather holds we’ll have really good footing. There’s a little more grass than last year. I’m really looking forward to these races.” A good, well-balanced field of entries had been made for the races by midday Monday, the closing day for entries. Feature race of the day is the Ben Venue owner-rider timber race which has five entries for the 2'/2-mile test. Among the entries is Baltimore rider Peter Jay’s Tonnere, who fell last week at Casanova’s owner-rider timber race. Jimmy Robinson of Warrenton has entered his Wee Pet who also raced at Casanova last weekend but was pulled up. Will Russell of North Carolina has entered his Marat and Rappahannock hunt member Mike Brown has entered Spreader. Paul Cramer’s Casanova Cup winner Cookin’ N’ Lookin has not been entered. The ladies timber race, third on the card, is also likely to be an exciting Race proceeds will go towards the new kennels — Democrat Staff Photo/Clive Caraie battle with nine entries. Patti Cassel of Waterford, who won the ladies race last weekend at Casanova, will once again ride her Splashy Lea. Splashy Lea has become a formidable foe on the ladies timber series, being voted Virginia Champion Race Mare in 1984 after earning the Champion Lady Rider title for her mistress that year. Ms. Cassel will not have an easy ride Saturday, however. Other entries include 1983 Champion Lady Rider Susan Sutula of Lincoln who will be riding Too Far Gone, Juliet Graham of Purcell ville who will be riding Randy Waterman’s Handy Hill and Barbara Batterton of Winchester who will be riding Sirocco. The program opens with a three quarter-mile turf race with 13 entries. Among these is Upperville resident Mrs. T. A. Randolph’s Tingles Image which finished fourth in a turf race at Casanova last weekend. An open timber race with seven entries is second on the card. Rappahannock Hunt huntsman Oliver Brown has entered his Roman Hunt. Other (Continued on Page 3)

JV’s Seeking Championship, Varsity Ties For Fourth Place By JANE BANGLEY Rappahannock News Staff Writer Rappahannock High's junior varsity basketball team finished the regular season ranked number one in the district, and the varsity team tied with Stonewall Jackson for fourth place. The JV’s will play second place Page County Saturday, March 2 at 7 p.m. at Warren County High School for the championship. The JV’s finished their season with games every night from February 19 to 22. The championship game berth was assured for Rappahannock after its win against Stonewall Jackson by a score of <so-.iz in an away game on r ebruary 19. “Devin Moore scored 13 points and Thomas Williams scored eight points in an overall lack lustre performance that allowed one opposing player to score 18 points,” Coach Greg Waters said. The next night, the junior varsity team played Brentsville at home. “We bounced back defensively on Wednesday night to. win 41-21 holding Brentsville’s Tracy Porter, who scored 16 points during the last game, to two points,” Coach Waters said. Wayne Foster was high scorer for Rappahannock during the game with seven points. Walter Frye, Richard Tribino, Devin Moore and Butch Foster all tied for second highest with six points each. “Our only district loss came Thursday night at Manassas Park by a score of 33-36,” Coach Waters said. “Our defense seemed to be in slow motion most of the night, and Manassas Park only received four fouls all night." Coach Waters said that although Rappahannock scored more baskets, Manassas Park made seven of 15 free throws while Rappahannock made one of two. Richard Tribino had 10 points for the night, and Devin Moore had nine. “Friday night's game against Page County seemed to be a repeat performance of Thursday night, but Richard Tribino’s 18 points and overall hustle kept us in the game,” Coach Waters said. “Then with five seconds remaining, Thomas Williams rebounded Butch Foster’s missed shot and laid it in to win the game 34-32.” Jimmy Darner contributed four points in the fourth quarter to tie the score. The JV's final record was 13-1 in district play and 16-2 overall. Rappahannock’s varsity team had a mixed week while finishing their regular season. The week began with a 4674 loss to Stonewall Jackson. “We were beaten by halftime,” Coach Don Dawson said. “We played one of the worst games of the season.” The varsity finished with a 7-7 district record and 9-9 overall. Rappahannock returned to the win column Wednesday night With a slchre of 6,3-41 over Brentsville. “We played one of our better games although 'no one showed much enthusiasm,” Coach Dawson said. Tommy Jenkins was high scorer for Rappahannock with 25 points. Rappahannock met Manassas Park on Thursday night and had another disappointing game. “We didn’t play well, and at halftime we were down 12-30," Coach Dawson said. “We played better in the second half and the second unit played well in the fourth quarter, but we lost 61-42." The varsity team won its final game of the season against Page County, ranked number one in the district. “It was probably the best game we played all year because we controlled the tempo,” Coach Dawson said. “We played good defense, were tied at halftime and down by seven with a minute and a half to go.” Mike Atkins and Ricky Shaw then hit key shots, and Robb Brown stole an inbounds pass and hit a 20 foot jumper with 20 seconds left on the clock. He also hit a foul shot with two seconds left to win the game by a score of 54-52. Jeff Porter had 18 points during the game, and Robb Brown had 13. The varsity began tournament play Wednesday night, February 27 against Stonewall Jackson. Before the game, Coach Dawson said that he hoped the momentum from the Page County game would carry over to the game with Stonewall. Eighth Grade BB Team Has Winning Year By JANE BANGLEY Rappahannock News Staff Writer Rappahannock High School’s eighth grade basketball team finished the year with a 0-2 record, and Coach Ron Vickers was pleased with how the team developed through the season. “The first game we lost to Stonewall just because we weren’t prepared mentally,” Vickers said. “After that game, though, the boys settled down and began playing like a team.” The team won its next two games by two points over Strasburg and Page. Vickers explained that in the game with Page, the team showed stamina when the members worked together with two seconds left on the clock to get a pass inbounds to point guard Eric Dunn who made a 40 foot jumper at the buzzer. Dunn was also the high scorer of the game with 14 points. The team’s only other loss came in the next game with Stonewall Jackson. “Two of my big scorers, Doug Smith and Wesley Jenkins, were out that game due to illnesses,” Vickers said. “That hurt us.” The two high scorers for the season were Eric Dunn with 80 points and Doug Smith with 71 points. Since the eighth grade basketball season is over, Smith and Dunn have begun practicing with the junior varsity team. “The three areas that I stressed all season were that the boys should learn to play team basketball, learn the fundamentals of the game and gain game experience," Vickers said. “I think that the team accomplished all three since every member got to play during the season.” Wakefield’s Magazine Wins By HELEN Rl'ISI Rappahannock News Contributing Writer The 1984 edition of the Wakefield School literary magazine. Talisman, has been awarded a first place certificate of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association (('SPA), a division of Columbia University in New York City. CSPA annually judges student publications from across the country. In awarding the first place rating to Talisman, CSPA commented that, “You have a magazine rich in literary content and obviously filled with enthusiasm and talent.” This marks the second year in a row that Talisman has received a first place certificate from CSPA. The 1984 edition was edited by Stephanie Zoebelein of Front Royal. General District Court Judge John Alexander decided not to accept a speedometer calibration submitted by William Earl Jenkins Tuesday in General District Court as an explanation of why he was charged with driving 72 in a 55 mile per hour zone. Judge Alexander asked when the calibration was made, and Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke replied that the work had been done the day before court. Jenkins was charged with speeding on January 30. Judge Alexander asked Jenkins why it had taken so long to have the calibration made. Jenkins said that he had had to have the brakes on the same truck worked on. The calibration was not accepted by Judge Alexander on the grounds that there had been too much time allowed to elapse between the offense and when the truck was calibrated. State Trooper H.A. Newlin testified that when he stopped the vehicle, Jenkins told him that the speedometer was not working and that parts had been ordered. Judge Alexander found Jenkins guilty and fined him $34 in addition to $20 costs. “I think that calibrations have been used to often in speeding cases, and Pm starting a crack down on them right now,” Judge Alexander said.

Said Konick to the commission, “...the building permit for the new commercial building...was only for a retail store,” adding that it didn’t allow for a living unit. During discussion with the planners, Konick also noted objections made by Emiel Smet, the county building official, in reagard to Bowers’ practice of living in his commercial building. “The ordinance speaks about a dwelling unit for a watchman or a caretaker...” said Konick. “He (Smet) feels that that implies that it not be a fulltime dwelling unit...that it implies that the person who stays there as the caretaker or the watchman has a permanent residence elsewhere, which is probably not the case here.” The building official also told Konick that it’s a violation of the statewide building code to have a dwelling unit of any kind in a structure storing explosive materials such as gunpowder. “Since this is a gun shop...it would appear that he (Smet) would not be able to issue an occupancy permit...so long as they’re storing any kind of ammunition in there,” said Konick. Konick also told the commissioners that he believes Bowers is violating the zoning ordinance by putting up for sale the trailer that, in effect, should have been removed from his property some time ago, according to the terms of the special use permit. (ZfZealcEstate Eileen M. Day «»iro« LARGE OR SMALL? Although many mass builders are saying “smaller is smarter”, this is not always true. Many of today’s builders are producing smaller homes, under 1,600 square feet, most with two bedrooms. Their reason for building smaller is certainly affordability; • the lower the price, the bigger the market. Also, many of today’s buyers are singles or one-parent families who require less living space. All things being equal, if you are a family with children, you probably wouldn’t buy a two-bedroom house just because it was small. Not if a three or four bedroom house were available in your price range. Considering the future re-sale market, a three or four bedroom house is still more desirable and would appeal to more buyers. Bigger houses are still IN. The average person moves every seven or eight years, more people are working at home, needing extra space and local zoning boards are becoming more liberal in allowing the conversion of larger homes into multiple units.

Also, “In every case that I’m aware of, the sale of motor vehicles or that kind of thing.. .anything that is not sold within the building such as merchandise has had to get a special use permit, even if it is in a commercial district,” said Konick. Near the end of the discussion, Commissioner Newbill Miller said “We should get the supervisors to request that Bowers comply with the ordinance. I don’t see that the supervisors can grant him a special use permit: he’s not a watchman or a caretaker. ” Commissioner Krebser added, “We must resolve if it is against the building code to have a dwelling in a building storing gunpowder or ammunition — if so, the whole question becomes moot.” Then a motion passed to request that the supervisors take the necessary enforcement action to bring Mr. Bowers into compliance with the zoning ordinance. Other Business Chairman Stokes reported that on February 18 the commission met with the citizens of Amissville to examine their proposal to expand the village boundaries of Amissville. Stokes said that the commissioners received input from the public but that a work session will be called before the commission makes a recommendation. Stokes also noted the contents of a letter from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to Commonwealth’s attorney Peter Luke regarding flood insurance for the construction of the upcoming Sperryville sewage plant. The Agency wrote that the contractors have gotten flood insurance but that the county should still send the proposed changes in its zoning ordinance that will cover future flood insurance needs.

McKnight’s Cervo which finished third in the Casanova open timber race. A l8/4-mile open hurdle race is fourth, following the ladies’ timber. Eleven entries have been made for this race including Albert F. Polk’s Nihoa which placed second at Casanova. Juniors will compete on the turf in the fifth race. Among the eight entries in this race is Dawn Dugan’s Sharp Start. This young Catharpin rider has ridden consistently well over the past few seasons, winning several races, and appears to have a good future in the sport. In the sixth race, a ls/i-mile open hurdle race, eight entries have been made. Charlie Fleischmann of The Plains, winner of the 1984 First Colony Series Championship, has entered his Lumbah Wallah. Among Lumbah Wallah’s competition will be Ahira’s Tale, who will be running in the colors of his new owner “Tennessee” Roy Graham. Also entered is Warrenton Hunt huntsman Michael Power’s Fleet Buster. Al len Olson, a Warrenton lawyer, has entered his Hilliard’s Deal and D. M. Smithwick has entered Fabuleux Chance. Foxhunters will contest the seventh race, a two-mile timber race. Fairfax Station resident Carey Shefte, winner of the Casanova foxhunters’ race, will ride once again on her Rulan’s Baby, heading a field of seven entries. The final race of the day is perhaps the most unusual. Open to any hound owner in Rappahannock Hunt territory and members of the Northern Virginia Foxhunters Association, the race is a test of the hounds’ abilities to run and follow a scent. Many of the hounds follow the drag halfway around the course but then lose the scent or find something more interesting. For hound owners it is a unique opportunity to see whose hound is fastest and surest, but it may result in a frustrating chase should the hound fail to make its way around the course..

Extension News Peach Bud Injury By BIRGITT THORNHILL The minimum temperature? experienced in the fruit growing areas of Virginia were in the range of -10° to -15°F on January 20. In Blacksburg the low reached -20°F. Peach flower buds have been examined from several areas and bud kill is high. If you have not checked buds in your orchard, you should do so to assess the damage. At this time it is somewhat early to know whether or not tree damage has occurred, but you should be on the lookout for signs of cold injury. As a general rule, you should wait until spring before pruning trees which may have suffered cold injury. Such injury is often apparent only as growth starts in the spring. Although reports are sketchy, it appears that significant peach flower bud damage extended as far south as Georgia. Some areas, however, may have sufficient numbers of live buds for a crop. Farm Production Costs Rising By BIRGITT THORNHILL Farm production costs are expected to continue rising in 1985. The rise will generally exceed the inflation rate, with any increase in market receipts offset by increases in input costs. Fertilizer prices for all forms of nitrogen, phosphates and potash are expected to rise 6 percent by mid-year. However, there may be a regional decline in prices, due to expected declines in farm crop prices and the demand for farm foods. Petroleum prices are expected to rise 4 percent in 1985. A 3 to 4 percent increase in farm demand of fuels is expected, but farm usage is so small compared to total usage that farm prices will be about the same as wholesale or rackj?rices. Prices for farm machinery are expected to rise faster than for any other production input. Some models of front-wheel-drive assist tractors will show hefty price increases. Prices are also expected to rise nearly 10 percent on small horsepower tractors, many of which will be imports. General Assembly (Continued from Page 1) “Any time you have extra money to spend, you’ve got fights,” Sen. Truban said, noting that the assembly also had a budget surplus to divide up. Sen. Truban said the session was “meaner than a junkyard dog — just about as mean as any session you’ll get.” Aside from being hard fought, the session was busier than most, with some 1,500 bills going through the process in a month and a half, legislators noted. That included bills introduced in the 1985 session, as well as those carried over from the 1984 session. “It was a little bit more hectic than I have ( jrienced in the past,” said Sen. Kevin Miller (R-Fauquier/Rappahannock/Culpeper/Page/Rockingham). “A little more sparks (were) flying than I’m used to.” “I am black and blue,” Del. Kenneth R. Plum (D-Reston) said Friday. “I’ve never had so many ups and downs.” As an example, Del. Plum cit ed his bill to prohibit developers from restricting group homes for the mentally retarded. It died by two votes in the House one day, was reconsidered and passed the next day, only to die in a Senate committee. Del. Plum said he could have got the committee to approve the bill, because two senators were going to switch their votes. But he couldn’t get the committee to meet again. “It’s been tough,” Del. Plum said. “It has been an extremely difficult session.” Del. Plum and other legislators said a big part of the problem is that the assembly doesn’t have enough time to consider the volume of bills that are introduced. The problem is worse in odd-year or “short” sessions such as this year’s, because of the large number of bills that are carried over from the previous year’s session. “Part of the problem is we attempt to do too much in too little time,” Del. Plum said, and the “price we pay is in terms of how people work together. ” “Just too much to do and too little time to do it,” is how Del. Thomas M. Moncure Jr. (R-Fauquier/Stafford) described the session. Del. Moncure said there were large numbers of substantive bills — many of which did not get adequate re view in committee — coming to the floor for votes and there often wasn’t enough time to consider them. “Nobody felt constrained to keep things simple,” Del. Moncure said. One solution, Del. Moncure said, would be to have approved the constitutional amendment limiting the number of bills that could be introduced in short sessions. State voters defeated such a proposal a few years ago. Extending the session wrould be a “bad precedent,” he said, but something has to be done to control the amount of bills introduced because “vo-. luntary constraints simply aren’t going to work.” THE RAPPAHANNOCK NATIONAL BANK SEEKING QUALIFIED REAL ESTATE LOANS Excellent Rates Washington.

Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation School Budget Possibilities Superintendent of schools Robert Estabrook will propose next year’s budget Tuesday, March 5 at 7:30 p.m. in the elementary school, and we are happy to have learned from Mr. Estabrook himself that he plans to recommend a “significant increase” in salary for all teachers. Both Mr. Estabrook and School Board Chairman Beverly Massie acknowledged in interviews that Rappahannock’s teachers need to be paid more. When asked if he thought the supervisors would accept his recommendation, Mr. Estabrook replied with a firm “I hope so.” On the topic of teachers’ salaries, Mrs. Massie said, “I’ll be the first to admit that we need to pay our teachers more.” Neither one of these two school officials - Estabrook or Massie -- disagrees in spirit with members of the local teacher-parent organizations, namely the Rappahannock Education Association, or the recently founded Concerned Citizens for Better Education. Both school officials spoke favorably of such organizations. Mr. Estabrook said he was very pleased as superintendent with the degree of interest shown by the public. “These are their (the people’s) schools.” He attributed significant gains, such as the capital outlay project for the high school, to the support of the public. Mrs. Massie also finds the degree of public participation encouraging. “We will have a better school system” because of it. On the more sobering topic of a school budget, Mrs. Massie said, “We would be negligent as school board members if we submitted a budget that was so large that it was not in the realm of what the county could reasonably afford. ” Mr. Estabrook said, “I must have a sense for the fine balance between educational needs and fiscal reality.” Each official spoke of reality and the realm of the possible. That is exactly why all concerned - parents, teachers, students - should attend the meeting on March 5. Because reality and the realm of the possible can be influenced when enough people join in to mold them. This Was The News In Bygone Rappahannock Times... 26 YEARS AGO THE RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS John L.

Our Rappahannock Heritage— Letters To The Editor On Religious Freedom To the editor: The following letter has been sent to the Religious Freedom Alert in Washington, D.C.: In a small Virginia county not far from Washington, zoning changes are being planned which could have an adverse effect on local churches and religion in general. Hoping for a speedy passage without much opposition of their 1984 Draft Plan that rewrites the county’s zoning ordinance, according to a letter written to the Planning Commission by a Board of Zoning Appeals official, the planners were surprised to have a turn out of some 400 angry religionists at their obligatory open hearing. Impromptu speeches against a provision that stipulated that places of worship would need a special use permit for any new construction or remodeling, which would give the BZA an apparent unconstitutional authority over the practice of religion, were made far into the night, with only one citizen (a lawyer) speaking in favor of the plan. Perhaps to placate the citizens rather than the change of heart that is appeared to be at the time, as later events tend to prove, one planner promised that he would see to it that the county got “religion by right" in all zones. Under questioning, another planner admitted that their reason for the provision was to protect the mainstream churches by keeping out any “cults.” Recently, after a number of additional meetings each in one of the county voting districts, and the creation of what may or may not be a red herring issue over a proposed landfill, the Planning Commission, after conferring with five local ministers and securing their agreement, voted in a compromise provision in the planned ordinance that would exempt all of the presently operating churches from its requirements, but would apply to any future churches coming into the area. According to a newspaper article the reason now given by the commissioners is that “the provision...was designed to restrict the way a place of worship operates only in regard to the rights of neighbors to the quiet enjoyment of their property”-nothing said about cults (Rappahannock Xetcs February 7, 1985.) The designer of the compromise was the same planner who had promised “religion by right,” according to the article. The ordinance would still affect present and future church operated schools, etc. From the words spoken on record by the planning officials themselves, we can see that constitutional issues are at stake, and the spiritual requirement to worship truly threatened. The mouth speaks what the heart is full of, and their reasons stated have been to “keep the cults out” and “to restrict the way a place of worship operates,” reasons that would violate both the first and second clauses of the U.S. Constitution by tending to establish, in the county, the presently operating, “mainstream” churches and by prohibiting the free practice of religion. Their desire to protect the present churches against inroads by “cults” and their exempting them from requirements that future churches must meet-and there are plenty of mainstream denominations by anyone’s definition that are not yet represented in the county- violate the Commonwealth of Virginia’s Constitution as well, which prohibits the conferring of any “peculiar privileges or advantages on any sect or denomination. The planners have gone on record as well in promising that “home Bible studies” will not be included under the definition of “places of worship” and will thus not need to obtain a special use permit. But in all matters of law there are lines that must be drawn, in this case what numbers of people and what religious practices constitute the differences between “worship” and “Bible study,” and the open question of how the law might apply to the study of the Koran, the Bahai scriptures, or the Torah-Talmud by groups in the home...lines to be drawn and questions to be settled by the civil authorities! And, of course, there are few home groups, or for that matter, churches that would relish the only other alternative presented by the Planning Commission-take it to court. The issue has not been finally decided and will not be until the recommendations are voted upon by the County Supervisors. But since the pastors most opposed to the plan have compromised their original position, there seems to be little to prevent its approval. PETER B. HOLLEY Boston, Va.

SYLVIA KREITLER Director of the Rappahannock County Department of Social Services -From Both Barrels - Saving The Democrats By GEORGE BOWLES Gov. Chuck Robb is spearheading an endeavor which amounts to nothing less than an effort to save the national Democratic Party from itself. Robb is taking the lead in organizing a group within the party structure which is being tentatively called the Democratic Leadership Council. Sharing the initiative with the governor in the formation of the council are Sen. Sam Nunn of Georgia and Congressman Richard A. Gephardt of Missouri. Other likeminded party loyalists around the country are being invited to sign on. The council’s purpose is to neutralize the growing balkanization within the Democratic Party. As a national political force, the party is being increasingly perceived as little more than a loose confederation of its various constituent groups. These include a remarkable melange of labor oriented organiza tions along with caucuses, committees and lobbies representing a wide variety of ethnic interests, gay and lesbian organizations, all manner of rights advocates and an infinite number of splinter factions pushing their causes and crusades. Each of these has its own ‘agenda” which it demands that the national Democrats adopt as their own. In all too many cases, the party has attempted to accommodate them with the result that, in recent years, its total influence in terms of political effectiveness has been considerably less than the sum of its parts. Robb addressed this problem in a notable, though unfortunately little noted, speech before the National Democratic Convention in San Francisco last summer. He pointed out at the time that if the Democratic Party was to regain its appeal to the broad body of the American electorate, it would have to learn to say “no” to some of the more strident demands of its constituent groups. It is a theme the governor has been pushing in the months since the convention. In early December Robb, as chairman of the Democratic Governors’ Association, released an unusual book dealing with the problem. The book, entitled Facing the Facts, contained the observations of 13 of the nation’s Democratic, governors. Each governor dealt with a specific problem plaguing the national party from the perspective of the chief executive of a state. They spoke of the problems mainly in broad-brush generalities, but their message was clear: rhe National Democratic Committee, which is to say the national Democratic Party, is not t>eing responsive to the political leeds of Democrats at the state levels. It is too faction-oriented, it is not reaching out to tap the vast pool of rank-and-file Democrats as the local party units are doing, and something must be done about it. The governor’s case was not hard to make. While the national Democrats have marched from disaster to disaster in the last two presidential elections, at the state level the Democrats claim 35 of the 50 governorships, three-quarters of the state legislative seats and comfortable control of the U.S. House of Representatives. In addition, across the country, the Democrats hold an overwhelming advantage in city council and county government offices. Robb and his allies sed no reason why this kind of bedrock support cannot be translated into victories in national elections. They believe, in order to do this, the party must restrain its fascination with constitutent group concerns and ideological purity, and get down to the business of practical, broad based and genuinely equitable politics. To this end, over the last several months, Robb, Nunn, Gephardt and others have been working to put together the leadership council. Understandably, their efforts had been regarded with considerable skepticism and suspicion by the Democratic National Committee leadership. , Last week, however, at a meeting in Washington with DNC Chairman Paul Kirk, Robb and his allies seemed to make peace with the committee and gained Kirk’s reluctant approval of the new council and its objectives. Later in the day a second meeting was reportedly held which was hosted by the council organizers. It was attended by some two dozen ranking party members, including former DNC Chairman Robert Strauss, House Majority Leader Jim Wright and former Treasury Secretary William Miller. It was clear that Robb and his assocites had received a green light from the DNC and the party elders to proceed with the organization of their council. What all this may mean for the future of the Democratic Party is, of course, anything but clear. Whatever it means, however, it is the first time in living memory — if ever — that a governor of Virginia has stepped forward to take such an initiative in national party affairs. And the guess here is' that how it all works out will have a great deal to do with not only the future of the national Democratic Party, but also with the future political plans of Gov. Chuck Robb. Library Fund Drive Successful The Directors of the “Friends of the Library” would like to express appreciation for the support provided in the recent fund-raising effort. Mrs. I.L. Parrish, Treasurer, reported that 141 people responded with total contri butions of $7,150. These funds will be put to work to fullfill some of the needs of the Library, according to a spokesperson. “The generosity of these friends is very much appeciated," she added.

Owls End Season With Strong Week By TRAV IS TISINGEK Rappahannock News Contributing Writer The week of February 19-25 has proved to be a turning point for the Wakefield School basketball team. The Owls claimed their first two victories ever and played close home matches against St. James of Hagerstown and Word of Life School. The week started with Wakefield playing host to the St. James Saints. The Saints were the obvious favorite, especially since Wakefield’s leading scorer, Russell Rowzie, was absent from the line-up. With adequate practice time on Wakefield’s new court, though, the Owls were well prepared. The Owls were hot in the ‘first quarter as they raced to a lt>-<5 lead. By half-time, the Saints had narrowed the margin to five points at 2G-21 with a patient offense and good perimeter shooting. In the second half, the Saints began to work the ball into the paint on the undersized Owls. OAKDALE S CHAROLAIS BULL SALE Saturday.

The next night the Owls traveled to Emmanuel School outside Manassas. The. Emmanuel Flames were the first ever victims of the Wakefield Owls. With a new offensive set and a pressing 3-2 defense, the Owls tallied 74 points on mostly forced turnovers to Emmanuel’s 25 points. With new confidence, the Owls entered Thursday night’s match with conference leader Word of Life with hopes of an upset. In first quarter play, the Owls were able to stay close with Word of Life-leading by a single point at the end of the quarter, 19-18. But, as Word of Life began to pick up the tempo and fast break, they increased their lead to 40-31 at the half. Following the half, Word of Life continued to run and gun but was not able to ever completely pull away from the Owls. The Owls exchanged baskets with Word of Life for most of the half until they had to send Word of Life to foul line in desperation. Word of Life went on to nail down a 71-87 victory. To close out the week, Emmanuel visited Wakefield for a rematch. The outcome was much the same as the earlier game with the Owls winning, 7725. Need a good year-round outdoor worker?

There’s More To Feeding Birds Than Meets The Eye By JANE BANGLEY Rappahannock News Staff Writer Bird feeding is a hobby that allows a person to watch nature while he or she contributes to helping a part of nature live a healthy life. Some people who feed birds think about the best ways to feed and what sorts of mixes the birds will like better, and others approach the hobby more casually. How and what the birds are fed is important to consider, though. In The Backyard Naturalist column, Craig Tufts writes that different seed mixes will attract different birds. To attract birds like cardinals, juncos and sparrows seed mixes with “proso millets (small white or red beady seeds) and sunflow'er seeds as well as some peanut kernels and fine cracked com” are needed. A local bird feeder, Clarissa Velasquez, provides wild bird feed and sunflower seeds for her bird visitors. She said that this combination attracts many kinds of birds. “We see finches, chickadees, nut hatches, woodpeckers, cardinals, juncos, sparrows, cat birds and other kinds,” Velasquez said, “We also keep water available for them close by, which is very important.” She identifies the different birds by using a book of birds that she keeps handy. Velasquez feeds the birds in bird houses hanging from a tree and on the ground. Tufts wrote that just such a mixture of the two methods of feeding will attract more birds. Birds are fed at the Velasquez house in summer as well as winter although the birds need to be fed more during the winter. “Winter was later this year so there weren’t as many coming at first, but now the feeders stay busy,” Velasquez said. “You have to keep steadily feeding, though, to keep the birds coming.” Velasquez also recommends putting the seed mixes in feeders or on the ground in areas where there are bushes and trees so the birds will feel safe. “They need cover that they can fly to just in case,” Velasquez said.

Bangley Planning For “A Country Fair,” committee chairman for the Rappahannock County Woman’s Club fashion show go over their lists. The organizers are Chris Eidson (models), Janet Yancey (chairman), Debbie Massie (co-chairman), Ann Hoffman and Peggy Wright (table decorations) and Barbara Burke, (publicity). Fashion Show To Benefit Women’s Abuse Shelter The proceeds from the annual Rappahannock Woman’s Club’s fashion show to be held on March 24 will be used this year for the club’s scholarship fund and the Women’s Abuse Shelter (WAS) in Culpeper. The Women’s Abuse Shelter is a volunteer, non-profit organization that has been in existence since 1980. The purpose of the shelter is to provide assistance to victims of domestic violence in Culpeper, Fauquier, Orange, Madison and Rappahannock counties. Battered women are the main concern for the group, but the WAS will take calls from battered men. Deborah Simmons, publicity chairman for the shelter, said that the latest figures indicate that the majority of victims of battering cases are women so that it is logical that the organization focuses more on helping women. The WAS received 64 percent more calls in 1984 than in 1983, and in 1984 a total of 11 calls were received from Rappahannock. Five families from Rappahannock are also housed at the organization’s shelter in Culpeper. The shelter provides a safe place for the women and children to go until action can be taken against the batterer. “When women first call us, they want information on what they can do and what legal steps they can take,” Simmons said. “Sometimes they have a safe place to go, but they need someone to talk to about how to deal with the shame and the disbelief that battering causes.” The volunteers work in shifts, and the office is open weekdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Calls between the volunteers’ shifts and office hours are answered by an answering service. If there is an emergency case, volunteers are called. There are five volunteers from Rappahannock who work with the WAS. The only member of the organization who receives any compensation is Rachel Saunders who acts as consul tant and is also the Services Coordinator. The volunteers may work as oneon-one counsellors with victims or in one of the other aspects of the WAS like shelter up-keep or publicity. The WAS, in cooperation with the Fauquier County Department of Social Services, has recently begun a support group for battered victims. The group meets every Thursday at 10 a.m. in Culpeper, and the WAS provides babysitting during the meetings. There are also plans for a children’s group since studies have shown that at least 70 percent of children involved in domestic violence cases are in need of assistance. More information on the support group can be obtained from the Rappahannock Department of Social Services. “We want to work with getting rid of the abuse of women and child abuse at the same time since they usually go hand in hand,” Simmons said. Most oi the women who call are married, but “we assist abused women, not .just victims of spouse abuse,” Saunders said. The WSA volunteers counsel the victims and help them to understand all of their alternatives. Beginning a year ago, married victims can now have a spousal abuse petition issued by the court that provides a protection order and can be used to force the batterer into therapy. “The petition is an excellent tool since it’s easier for women to do than to have an arrest warrant issued,” Simmons said. The WAS refers the batterers to a mental health office or to private counseling if that is preferred. The WAS is affiliated with the United Way, and it depends on volunteers and generous community support to operate. “We are very excited about the fashion show since we need help to operate, and it’s nice that the Woman’s Club thought of us, ” Simmons said. The WAS office is located at 102 N. Main St. in the A.P. Hill Building in Culpeper. For more information on services or how to volunteer, call 825TURN or 347-1920.

From helping to clear the building site of Country Manor in 1972 to recently overseeing the printing and mailing of over 200,000 of their latest cataalogue. Jim and Phyllis are truly the epitome of a hard-working and successful business team. Having settled in Jim's hometown of Sperryville in 1970, the Swindlers immediately went to work restoring and expanding The House Of Baskets (now Chipmunk Hollow). In 1973 the Swindlers built Country Manor, a 10,000 square foot building which now houses a retail store, a deli, a wholesale department and the mail order offices for Country Manor s catalog - all of which are overseen by Jim & Phyllis. Today the mainstay of the business is direct mail. The catalog was started in 1981 with a bought list of under 20,000 names and has grown to the point where it presently has an in-house list of over 100,000 retail customers and close to 1000 wholesale customers. The hard work has paid off for Jim & Phyllis in the form of recognition of their efforts by magazines such as Country Living, Country Home, House Beautiful and Colonial Homes among others. Country Manor has achieved a reputation as a quality source of classic country items from the Blue Ridge Mountains. With the same hard work and dedication that has brought success in the past, Phyllis & Jim will continue to preside over the expansion of their businesses and will always be a viable part of Sperryville and Rappahannock's business community.
