Virginia, 22747 Phone 675-3349 25 cents Rapp ups Wakefield sign returned The Wakefield School sign, stolen three weeks ago from in front of the private school located near Huntly, has been returned, according to Headmaster William Lynn. Lynn said he received a call Thursday from a person who discovered the sign in a ditch. At the time of the call, Lynn said the caller wished to remain anonymous. Lynn said he was not told of the exact location of the discovery. In a letter to the editor appearing in this week’s edition, Lynn wrote he is “willing to drop the matter with no more questions asked.” However, Lynn said the possibility still exists that Wakefield School will no longer schedule athletic events against Rappahannock County High School, as has been threatened in a report appearing last week. Lynn said he blames the heated athletic rivalry for the theft of the sign and acts of vandalism that occurred recently on school grounds. In his letter, Lynn wrote: “...We are absolutely convinced that the theft of our sign and the subsequent acts of thefts and vandalism were related to the heightening tensions of sports rivalry within the county.” Lynn said a decision to schedule the public school will be made at a later date. Waites benefit dinner A dinner to raise money to cover expenses incurred by the hospitalization of leukemia victim Jessie Waites is scheduled for Friday at the Castleton Fire Hall. Waites, a former Rappahannock native, is a patient at Georgetown University Hospital’s Vince Lomardy Cancer Research Center. The dinner, from 5:30 to 9 p.m., will help raise money to help cover expenses not covered by insurance. Advance tickets for the dinner are $6 for adults, $3 for cildren. Tickets at the door are $7 and $4 and are available at various places. Committee to meet The Special Education Advisory Committee for the Rappahannock County Public Schools will meet on Nov. 5 at 7 p.m. The meeting will be held at the school board office. The purpose of the meeting is to give an overview of the special education programs and related services provided by the public schools. The committee is in the process of recruiting new members. Interested persons can call Pamela M. Rowe at 987-8773 or Debra Combs at 937-4222. Committee meetings are open to the public. Fall back Sunday The days will get noticeably shorter this weekend.

The Sperryville Apple Harvest Celebration, the first-ever of its kind, drew “thousands” of people to the southern end of Rappahannock County. “It was unbelievable,” said Cheri Woodard of Faith Mountain in Sperryville. “What was neat was to see the whole town involved with it together.” It was estimated that as many as 80,000 visitors would come to the county for three main attractions: the Sperryville celebration, the Annual House Tour and Dried Flower Sale and the autumn colors in the Blue Ridge, all available on the same weekend this year. A steady rain on Sunday, however, no doubt reduced that optimistic forecast, although no formal crowd count has been made public. The second-day rain did, though, force the cancellation of some of the outdoor bake sales and food sales. Still, the weekend was deemed a great success by those involved. “The (Sperryville) Emporium parking lot was more crowded than anyone had ever seen,” said Cheri Woodard of Faith Mountain, a member of the Sperrvville Business Council that sponsored the event. Maurice O’Bannon of the Emporium said the lot was more crowded “than I've ever seen it.” He added that the Emporium on Saturday was “real crowded, crowded enough to run us out of water by 11 o’clock.” O’Bannon said the well would produce enough water to last an hour at a time. “It would take a dozen wells to keep up with all the people we had” the first day, O’Bannon said. Woodard also said that Faith Mountain remained open some 90 minutes longer than planned on Saturday because traffic coining off the Blue Ridge Mountain was too heavy for visitors to get into Sperryville before the planned 6 p.m. closing. "Traffic was bumper to bumper,” said Woodard. “People were still coming in” as the evening wore on. “That’s how much traffic there was.” Shenandoah National Park officials reported weekend visitation, counting Friday, Saturday and Sunday, reached 63,719, a figure down somewhat from the 69,805 that went through the park gates the same weekend last year. An official said that last year’s count was no doubt afPlease turn to page 11 Dawn Nicholson, friend, share moment in the leaves during apple harvest celebration Saturday. Harvest better than market By JANE BANGLEY * Rappahannock News staff writer There is some good news and bad news about this year's apple harvest. The good news is the quality and quantity of the crop. The bad news is that -» many local orchardists are letting the apples lie where the„v fall due to low market prices. ^ “We had a good crop, but it’s a tough marketing year,” said Sam Snead, an or| chardist in Gid Brown Hollow. “The processors are choosy and they want big apples, but the drought caused us to have smaller apples than usual.” He said the dry weather did cut down on diseases and the need for spraying, which made for a good quality crop. Fresh market prices have been good because of the crop’s quality, but only a small percentage of an orchardist’s crop is sold to road side markets or directly to the customer. The rest go to grocery' stores or processors. “There just isn’t a juice market this year,” said Snead. He said reasons for the bleak processing market were that growers underestimated the number of processing apples, processors then signed § contracts with northern orchardists leavPlease turn to page 18 Factory outlet store staving import assault By PAUL McFARLANE Rappahannock News staff writer The American textile industry is fighting back against low-price imports. And in Rappahannock County, that struggle cannot be closer to home. The textile industry may have taken its lumps from imports recently — much the way foreign car makers picked away at Detroit’s hold on the auto industry at the turn of this decade. Nonetheless, the fight being waged by the textile industrv is not expected to cost local workers their jobs. Wayne Walker, for 20 years the manager of the Flint Hill Aileen, Inc. plant, said this week the 300 employees there are in no danger of losing their jobs, despite rumors to the contrary. “I see nothing to indicate” the com plete shutdown of the plant, Walker said Monday. The rumor is “totally false, at least from the information I have.” Walker suggested rumors began recently when the news of seasonal slowdowns — particularly at the Edinburg dyeing and finishing plant which traditionally lays off workers earlier than cutting and sewing factories — began to spread to other plants. Walker, however, painted an optimistic picture, quite different from the rumored dark days ahead. Aileen Inc. began a marketing approach about two years ago to compete with Asian exporters, who are making clothes of similar quality at a much lower cost, Walker said.

However, the average score earned by those students who entered four-year colleges after high school graduation were higher than either the state and national average. The SAT, a Princeton, N.J.-based College Board exam, is a two-part test taken generally by those high school students considering entering college. It is offered to any student and tests a student’s knowledge of math and verbal skills, and is used as a college admissions tool. A perfect score on each part of the exam is an 800. Locally, the average combined score of all students taking the test was 861, some 55 points below both the Virginia [908) and national (906) scores. The average verbal score of the 33 Please turn to page 18 3-day rain tops previous three months It took three days of rain — Sunday through Tuesday — to drop more inches on Rappahannock County than had fallen in nearly the previous three months. In a 55-day period ending Saturday, Sperryville weather watcher Dennis Wingfield recorded 1.54 inches of rainfall. By Sunday night, that total was easily exceeded. By Monday, it was tripled. Then on Tuesday, more rain dampened a county that was in dire need of the wet stuff. Wingfield recorded 2.06 inches Sunday, another 1.08 on Monday and 1.81 in the early evening Tuesday, a three-day total of 4.94 inches. Wingfield reported that some 8.49 inches of rain fell in August and another 0.83 inches in September. Until Sunday, just 0.14 inches had fallen in October.

94 hazardous material spills reported in Va. From Staff and Wire Reports Virginia was the site of 94 spills last year from trucks and train cars carrying hazardous materials, according to federal officials. Ninety-one trucks leaked substances that include gasoline, fiiel oils, sulfuric acid, hydrogen gas, metallic mercury and corrosive solids, said Eric Bolton, spokesman for the Federal Highway Administration. Seven trains carrying dangerous substances were in accidents in 1984, and three of them spilled hazardous materials, according to the Federal Railroad Administration. Lt. Bemie Chisholm, assistant division commander in safety for the Virginia State Police, said the agency’s 21 safety officers conducted in-depth inspections of 3,021 trucks last year. Eighteen percent of those were hauling hazardous substances, he said. Nobody knows the volume of hazardous materials that moves through Virginia each year. But the figure for liquid petroleum gas alone last year was 129 million gallons, the highway administration said. Kids often have guns RICHMOND — A 12-year-old shooting a schoolmate on a city school bus is just one example of a larger problem — the increasing number of youngsters carrying guns, a lawyer and a city prosecutor said Wednesday. “We take guns off kids all the time,” said Patrick Bell, a prosecutor with the city commonwealth attorney’s juvenile division. “It really is a problem. That’s why we’re getting so many dead people in Richmond,” she said referring to Virginia ^ Roundup the city’s tally of 75 murders for 1986. “Look at how many kids are either the victim or the shooter.” The police department’s research and planning office said six of the city’s murder victims this year have been age 17 or younger and seven of the known murderers have been juveniles. The FBI says Richmond is third in the nation in murders per capita. Lawyers back in school RICHMOND — Virginia’s 13,000 practicing lawyers will be required to take eight hours of continuing legal education classes each year beginning in 1986, state bar officials announced Wednesday. Michael J. Rost, deputy executive director of the Virginia Bar Association, said the Virginia Supreme Court last week approved his group’s proposal to require the courses for all of the state’s active lawyers. As a result, lawyers must file a certified statement saying they have taken such a course as part of the annual application for license renewal. The first statement is due by July 1987. Virginia becomes the 18th state to require such courses, Mr. Rost said. That is up from two in 1976, Glynda Menefee begins therapy on new machine at Culpeper Memorial. Therapy easier with new motion machine A new machine at the Culpeper Hospital is making recovery from surgery possible for at least one local resident. Glynda Menefee of Sperryville has been walking with a stiff knee for eight months since it was dislocated in February. Recovery from her iiyury, which eventually required surgery, was made difficult because of the painful exercises used in traditional physical therapy. A continuous passive motion machine, however, appears to be helping. After Mrs. Menefee’s knee continued to dislocate after six weeks in a cast, surgery was performed in April to pull the knee into place. Following another six weeks in a cast, Menefee could not bend her knee, and the scar tissue that accumulated in the knee made the necessary physical therapy too difficult and too painful for her to perform. “In her situation, my wife just couldn’t do the therapy to bend her knee,” said William Menefee, the patient’s husband. To help the patient regain mobility in her leg, Dr. Robert Rutkowski of Culpeper manipulated her knee under anesthesia, releasing the scar tissue that was preventing movement of her knee. After the procedure, Mrs. Menefee’s knee could bend 90 degrees, but her goal was to maintain this mobility and to increase the range of motion. Dr. Rutkowski prescribed the continuous passive motion ma chine; and after one day on the machine, Mrs. Menefee’s knee was bending 107 degrees. “The machine hhs worked out quite well,” said Dr. Rutkowski. “For her to return to normal, it will take work on muscle strength.” A recent development in physical therapy equipment, the continuous passive motion machine holds the patient’s leg in a sling and moves automatically, bending, extending and flexing the knee with minimal discomfort. Without the use of this machine, therapy for patients with knee injuries, knee surgery, knee replacements or strokes is difficult and painful, requiring considerable exertion from the patient and constant attention from the therapist to keep the leg moving. With the continuous passive motion macine, significant results are achieved with little effort from the patient or therapist. Edna Farry, chief physical therapist at Culpeper Memorial, said “The patient can go to sleep while the machine is running.” Mrs. Menefee said she was greatly relieved by the ease of the machine. “It’s better than going to therapy,” she said. “It’s gentle and it doesn’t hurt so much.” The speed of movement and development of flexion and extension may be tailored to the ability of the individual patient. As the pace of the machine gradually increased, Mr. Menefee said ftappatjannocfe ilttos Rappahannock & Adjoining Counties per year $8 00 Elsewhere in the U S. per year $10.00 Outside the U S. per year $8.00 plus postage SUBSCRIPTION RATES BY MAIL ALL PAYABLE IN ADVANCE () New () Renewal () Check Enclosed NAME___ ADDRESS___ CITY_ STATE ZIP____ Second class postage paid at the Post Office at Warren ton, Va.

L “This is as far as I’ve seen her leg move in months.” A major convenience of the continuous passive motion machine is that patients can take it home with them, thereby shortening their hospital stay and reducing the number of visits to physical therapy while maintaining a continuous level of therapy at home. “It feels good to sit down and bend my leg normally,” she said as she prepared to return home with the machine and instructions for exercises to perform on her own. Before her accident, Mrs. Menefee worked at Aileen in Culpeper. Said Mrs. Menefee: “I hope this therapy will help me be able to go back to work.” according to Arlington County Circuit Court Judge Paul F. Sheridan, who headed the bar association committee that drew up the state plan. The Virginia bar began studying the idea in 1974 and first proposed it to the Supreme Court in 1977. The plan was rejected. Burford DUI trial set ARLINGTON — Reagan administration official Robert Burford will go to trial Dec. 17 on drunk driving charges, an Arlington County District Court judge ruled Wednesday. Mr. Burford, director of the Bureau of Land Management, wasn’t present in the courtroom when Judge Eleanor Dobson set the trial date. Mr. Burford was arrested Sept. 16 after a state police officer saw his car stopped in the middle of Interstate 395 just outside the nation’s capital. Mr. Burford was charged with drunk driving, according to Arlington police. His wife, Anne Burford, the former head of the Environmental Protection Agency, was charged with being drunk in public after she allegedly cursed and yelled at authorities at the county jail the night of the arrest, police said. Mrs. Burford is scheduled to go to trial on Dec. 13. Unemployment fund fat RICHMOND — The Virginia Employment Commission’s trust fund for paying benefits to jobless workers is approaching a record surplus, says VEC chief Ralph G. Cantrell. Mr. Cantrell told members of the Senate Finance Committee on Friday that the surplus is expected to reach $417 million by Dec. 31. Because of the surplus, state employers, who pay taxes into the fund based on their number of employees, probably will see a $64 million reduction in the taxes next year, Mr. Cantrell said. That would amount to something more than $23 per employee per employer per year, Mr. Cantrell said, on top of the $42-per-employee tax decrease that went into effect this year. The fund had a $45 million deficit two years ago, but unemployment has dropped since then. “It’s quite a recovery in a little over two years,” Mr. Cantrell told the legislators. Slaying suspect freed SUFFOLK — A Circuit Court judge, refusing to send a murder case to the jury, has found James A. Adams innocent in the slaying of two Newport News residents. “The evidence is just not there, ladies and gentlemen,” Judge E. Everett Bagnell said Friday after the prosecution presented its case. Mr. Adams, 55, of Newport News, left the courtroom a free man, without having to present a single witness in his defense. He was charged with murder in the slaying of Mary Elizabeth Winfield and Louis Hicks. The victims were shot to death and their bodies dumped in Suffolk. Police think the two were shot Oct. 21, 1984, the day neighbors said they saw them with Mr. Adams at his home. Authorities in Newport News and Suftolk s »ent months building a case against Mr. Adams before he was arrested. Castle ton FD event, ‘Turkey Ridge Run9 set for Saturday The Castleton Volunteer Fire Department’s third annual Turkey Ridge Run, the major fund-raisier for the department, is set for Saturday. “This incredibly scenic 7.1-mile course is a runner’s dream,” said Philip Strange, race organizer and president of the CVFD. “The run starts and finishes downhill.” Strange, however, admitted that runners will face “a challenging bump or two in between.” Runners can vie for Thanksgiving turkeys to be presented to the male and female winners of the open category.

A clear day at Ches. rGap, before rain fell here on Sunday. General District Court Judge John Alexander reduced a speeding charge against Dwight Gene Fitzsimons from 69/55 to 64/55 since, in Judge Alexander’s view, “There’s no need to nitpick.” Fitzsimons’ attorney, Frank Reynolds, had made two motions to strike the case, which were denied, and had challenged the radar proof of accuracy. Trooper Chuck Moore testified he had checked the radar’s accuracy with his speedometer and with tuning forks before and after he stopped Fitzsimons and charged him with 69/55. Trooper Moore also testified he had paced Fitzsimons’ car at “between 63 to 64 miles per hour” before he stopped the vehicle on Route 211. Trooper Moore’s speedometer calibration was put into evidence, but no evidence of the tuning forks’ calibration was introduced. Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke said Reynolds could have subpoenaed information on the tuning forks, but the prosecution has no burden to produce the information for every speeding case. After testimony by Fitzsimons, Judge Alexander said he would have ' no problem with reducing the charge to 64/55 since the amount of penally points would be the same for both charges. He fined Fitzsimons $18 in addition to $20 costs. Luke and Reynolds pointed out after the case that a charge of 64755 brings one less penalty point than a charge of 69/55. Other cases decided Tuesday included: John W. Cildrey, non-payment of sales tax, tax paid, 10 days in jail suspended, $35 costs. Dollie Atkins, welfare fraud, 30 days in jail suspended, no assistance for six months, $35 costs.

James Franklin Willi .ms, bran TYPES OF OWNERSHIP Perhaps you have heard the term “fee simple" title, or ownership, in relation to real estate. This is just one type of ownership; the score of the various types of ownership is far from “simple". “Fee simple” or "fee simple absolute" title means that the land owner owns everything there is to own, including mineral rights and that the land is free from easements and all other restrictions. Any ownership less than fee simple means that someone else — or a company— owns at least some of the property rights in the real estate. So-called “time share” condominiums are a good example of ownership that is less than fee simple. Although the purchaser gets a deed for the condominium, his ownership is limited to a certain time period — usually one or two specific weeks during each year. Although there is true ownership in this situation, there are many other people with whom ownership in the property is shared.

Published by Warrenton Phntmn & Publishing Company, Inc. Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation Editorials Nice going Well, so maybe the weather was not perfect. It appears to be the only about last weekend that was less than ideal. In Sperryville, local business leaders made an idea come to pass. And it was more than successful. Perhaps Jesse Pond was correct when he said the ground sank “10 inches from the weight of all these people out here.” It was the first Sperryville Apple Harvest Celebration. Be advised that folks in the southern end of the county don’t expect it to be the last. Not by any stretch. The house tour and dried flower sale, as expected, went off without a hitch, as has been the case for the last 28 years. This year was no different. And the more than 60,000 folks who drove into the Shenandoah National Park will attest to the beauty of this place we call home. As predicted, the weekend wfll he talked about for months, and would be talked about for years, except for the planning and preparation that probably have already begun on the 1986 version. Sperryville organizer Martin Woodard called the weekend a “tremendous success.” It is hard to argue with that. It was a success socially, logistically and, certainly, financially. Folks who visited our community over the weekend will more than likely return. After all, the pleasant taste of this weekend is still so fresh on our palates, even if the ground did sink about 10 inches. ’ '***•*_ Besides, maybe next year we can get two days of sunshine. Good news For so long, the economic news on the home front has been so bleak. The auto industry. The steel industry. The petroleum industry. The list goes on for pages. So, to hear an optimistic report on the local textile industry challenging a competitor is, indeed, a sign of better times for an industry under the gun. Aileen, Inc. is opening factory outlet stores to sell its products at prices to challenge foreign imports, imports that had stripped about one-third of the market from the domestic manufacturers. For decades American clothing held the upper hand in the marketplace. That superiority is no longer true. And that local manufacturers can come up with a marketing technique to successfully challenge the competition — which subsequently maintains job security — is good news for a change. |—Rappahannock heritage Farm, pond in Gid Brown Hollow Rapt1 Jinock News photo/Greg Turner Letters to the editor A new relationship lo the editor: I should like to offer a sincere apology to Rappahannock High School students, faculty, administrators and parents for misunderstandings that have possibly arisen from the recent press coverage of theft and vandalism at Wakefield. While I am grateful for the interest of the Rappahannock News in the matter, I think that both the emphasis of your article and your unfortunate headline have helped cause some hard feelings that need to be dispelled. I am eager to point out that at no time have Wakefield officials contemplated “severing ties” with RCHS. It is true that there has been discussion at Wakefield of cancelling future sports competition between the two schools in order to reduce tensions in the county, but such an action, if taken, would not be meant as a rebuff to Rappahannock High from Wakefield but rather as a measure of common sense in the interest of community harmony. In a small community where two schools, one public and the other private, are engaged in an intense sports rivalry, high tensions and trouble often result. In Front Royal, Randolph-Macon Academy and Warren County High School long ago decided it was imprudent to continue athletic competition between the two schools. Despite their geographical proximity, Wakefield and RCHS are clearly not competitors in certain fields. In academics, they cannot fairly compete, for Wakefield, a private school, is selective, while Rappahannock, a public school, must be open to all. In sports, Wakefield has only about half the number of students to draw from as Rappahannock and a more limited range of non-academic activities. We may, in fact, continue to compete in athletics, but there are, perhaps, some compelling reasons why we should not. If bitterness and hostility are the price of that competition, then it is clearly not worth the cost. From reliable information that was forthcoming in response to our offer of a reward, we are absolutely One innocent is suffering at RCHS To the editor: When something is stolen from your yard, do you point the finger at your neighbor’s children and accuse them of the theft? When past vandalism and thefts have occurred at Rappahannock County High School, did the principal point his finger at the Wakefield School and accuse them of the crimes? No, of course not. Then why on earth do Wakefield’s headmaster and trustees feel that school rivalry stemming from the recent soccer games with RCHS is the suspected reason why they are having a rash of problems? What does school rivalry have to do with vandals and thieves? Furthermore, after degrading one blameless, RCHS boy face to face and causing him to experience great ridicule from his classmates and Wakefield students for several weeks, the headmaster has now indirectly pointed his finger at another RCHS student who is innocent of all Wakefield crimes. Since there’s only one RCHS soccer player who drives a blue car with a white stripe, again, you can be sure that he’s the one who’s now being harassed and tak ing the brunt of all Wakefield’s theft and vandalism accusations. Please, tell me, what good can come out of hurting innocent people?: “It’s better that 10 guilty persons escape than that one innocent suffer.” — Words of Sir William Blackstone. NANCY SHOPPET Castleton (Wakefield Headmaster William Lynn identified a car he said entered the Wakefield parking lot the night of one of the thefts as a blue car with a white stripe.-Ed.) convinced that the theft of our school sign and the subsequent acts of theft and vandalism were related to the heightening tensions of sports rivalry within the county. It is also clear that these senseless acts of grand larceny, possibly meant as only pranks, were committed by a very few who, in no way, are representative of the school or the community. The Wakefield sign has now been recovered, and we are willing to drop the matter with no more questions asked. For the sake of our community, young people need to mind what they do, school officials need to mind what they say (especially to reporters) and newspapermen need to mind what they write. On the playing fields the soccer teams of Rappahannock High and Wakefield have given us a perfect example of sportsmanship. Let’s all follow that example. Together, let us build a new relationship based on respect, trust and fair play. WILLIAM E. LYNN Headmaster, Wakefield School Huntly One more reason to like Rappahannock To the editor: There are many excellent reasons for living in Rappahannock County. Not the least of these is the grace and artistry of the L&et Minute Wood Company. NOL PUTNAM Flint Hill Margaret Heckler bites the old sod by EUGENE J. MCCARTHY Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Margaret Heckler has been removed from her cabinet position as Secretary of Healt', and Human Services. The President was Master of Ceremonies at her leave-taking, to which, according to the press, she agreed after fighting back tears. The President said that it was malicious gossip that he was getting rid of her because she was incompetent or insufficiently conservative. In other words, he had no fault with her philosophy relative to health and human services, and he thought she was competent. A competent director of that department is hard to come by. In Eugene J. McCarthy, author, poet and former U.S. Senator from Minnesota and former presidential candidate, now lives in the F.T. Valley near Slate Mills. the past, secretaries have resigned asserting that in their own judgment they were not competent to run the department. This statement would usually be followed by the assertion or implication that they believed no one could run it. Abe Ribicoff resigned more or less on these grounds after being appointed to the office by President Kennedy. John Gardner resigned under the Johnson Administration in near despair. He went on to build and direct Common Cause on the principle that every institution of government and politics could well be operated if the advice of Common Cause were heeded. Of all of the recent directors of the department, only Wilbur Cohen, who succeeded Gardner for the duration of the Johnson Administration, carried out his duties with confidence and without apology, without resignation or dismissal. If Margaret was as competent as the President said she was, she should have been kept on at any cost. And then to send her to Ireland with the defense that if she had not done well as Secretary, she would not have been offered the Irish post! This explanation is, I assume, supposed to make the I rish feel good about the appointment. Why? Because she was a good administrator? There is no U.S.-Irish policy or Please turn to page 5 Paul McFarlane I His name was Red Baron, a Chestnut thoroughbred in his teens. He almost stopped me in my teens, or so I thought. Cary Bamberger, a bespeckled, skinny kid and a lousy softball player who lived with his grandmother in Brooklyn but who came to the country every year for summer camp warned me. Stay away from Red Baron on a Monday morning. It was summer camp; I was 13. It could have been any year from 1963 until 1978, my tenure at Equitation Lodge, which, of course, meant the place was at The races least a little concerned with horses. My dad was a camp counselor there, so 1 got to go every summer for free and went for more summers than any other camper or employee the place ever had (you can look it up.) I even went to camp longer than Cary, who got into some sort of trouble in the city during the winter and was never seen at camp again. Of course, having your father at camp must be like having a parent teach at the school you attend. You get away with nothing. Any slice of mischief gets reported faster than the start of snack time. When we found a stack of old Playboy magazines in the camp director's quarters, I thought I’d never see the light of day again. It was but one small destraction. The softball games and camp overnights and games of Capture the Flag and skipping out of arts and crafts were great. But Red Baron left a sour taste in my mouth when it came to horseback riding, which has always been the most convenient place to ride such an animal. Few campers I knew ever went horsehead riding, for example, although Cary did try to go horseneck riding. The horse would stand for no part of those shenanigans and promptly threw Cary to the ground on his head, sending his glasses in another direction. Perhaps that’s why Cary went astray in later life. But Cary correctly warned me about choosing Red Baron on that Monday morning. "Look,” he said with a thick New York accent. “That horse has been cooped up all weekend in that small stall, licking that hunk of salt and eating hay and parts of wood off his door. He’s gonna go nuts the first chance he gets.” “Cary, are you lost, or what?,” I said, as though I was some sort of expert. “You got it all wrong. How many horses are there in Brooklyn, anyway? Only those the cops ride. Red Baron will be as mild as a sleeping kitten with me in control.” Red Baron was rumored to be a racing horse at one point of his career. But these were his declining years, spent trotting and cantering for teenage, smartalerk summer campers. The horse would be putty in my gentle hands. Cary was right, of course. The only thing I got for my cockiness was a mouthful of oily dirt. I also got laughed at. I was accostumed of being laughed at but the dirt was none too tasty. 1 mounted Red Baron, checked my stirrup length so that it struck just below my ankle bone and checked his eyes for signs of temporary insanity. Monday horseback riding sessions were always like the first day of school, as if the instructor believed we’d forgotten how to steer the horse. We went through a series of compulsory maneuvers, trotting down the center of the ring, circling a beacon to the right, trotting the quarter-circle along the rail to the proper diagonal, cutting across the middle of the ring and returning to the beacon. Simple stuff. I trotted Red Baron down the center of the ring, confident that Cary knew nothing more than how to hot-wire convertibles in the city. I reached the beacon and began turning to the right. Red Baron, apparently, had thoughts of his own. They were not the same thoughts and plans I had. He reared and turned, and took off like a shot to the left, leaving me in a heap next to the beacon, the hunt cap I shared with my sister rolling away through the thick, oily dirt that covers the floor of such rings, the boots I borrowed from Mitch McRae filled with that awful mess. Cary laughed. The instructor expressed concern and suggested the best thing for me was to get right back on that horse to rid myself of a permanent fear of riding. I had other ideas. Why don’t I just pick up my hunt cap, brush the dirt off my camp T-shirt, return the boots to Mitch and go swimming? I’d catch up with the group after arts and crafts. I could live the rest of my life with a fear of riding, I reasoned. I wasn’t so sure I could live with another round against Red Baron. But there were other concerns. Kathy Snead was in my riding class. She was the best-looking 13-year-old in camp and I could not look bad in front of her. When you’re 13, you’re looking to be as macho as possible, even though that word became popular far after our early teenage years. I weighed the options: I could save my hide by walking away. I could save my pride by getting back on the horse and hope to hold on to the end of class. Pride won out. I got back on the animal. They say Horses sense fear from their riders. I could have written a telegraph for all the fear I hid. Red Baron seized the opportunity to run free and threw me a second time. No doubt about it this time: The heck with pride, Kathy Snead’s impression of me or the chance of fearing horses forever. I was finished riding for the day, and certainly finished with Red Baron for my career. I scooped up my cap, brushed off my shirt and sauntered off toward the pool. That instructor, however, was correct about retaining forever such a fear of riding. Last weekend at Great Meadow, the first time I attended such an event, I had to admire the jockeys who directed their mounts at great speeds over miles of open space, over logs and other jumps for the pleasure of beating the other horses in the field. I would bet that, as teenagers, they listened to their instructors and got back up on their horses after having been thrown. Time and time again.

\ r George Bowles Calls from Godwin, Robb As things are turning out, the two men who may have the greatest impact on the outcome of the 1985 governors’ race aren’t candidates seeking the office. To be sure, Republican Wyatt B. Durrette and Democrat Gerald L. Baliles are in there pitching. They are doing all the things a candidate for governor should be doing. They are covering the state, they are meeting all the right people and, within the context of their candidacies, they generally are building their cases according to blueprints which have been brainstormed, computerized and certified by their consultants. But something is missing. With the campaign in its last couple of weeks, neither candidate is doing or saying the things which move people to discuss what they have to offer or become excited about their candidacies. Now, both men know, or should know, that in order to energize —one might even say legitimize —their bids for the governorship, they must create within the electorate a degree of interest in themselves and in what their campaigns are all about. cut up to now, in spite oi tne fact that together Baliles and Durrette are expected to raise a combined total of $6 million for their war chests, as far as the Old Dominion voters are concerned, the campaign has been the most monumental political snorer in recent memory. To repeat, it’s not that they haven’t been saying some significant things. It’s just that they haven’t been saying the kind of things that stir the electorate. And both men recognize that in order to win, the electorate must be stirred. Thus others are taking on that task. Baliles, who according to the polls is running well ahead of Durrette, has the easier job. There is little doubt that, in the fortnight ahead, he will rely heavily on Gov. Charles S. Robb’s star quality to give his campaign a final, decisive boost. It is reported that in the days remaining before the Nov. 5 election Robb will campaign extensively for Baliles and the rest of the Democratic ticket. With his enormous popularity, surpassing even that of President Ronald Reagan in Virginia, there is little doubt that if anyone can wake up a campaign, he would be the one to do it. Thus while Baliles continues his somewhat plodding campaign style in the final days, he will have Robb at his side to provide the fireworks. Durrette’s situation is considerably different. Because he is believed to be running behind in the polls, a major rescue operation is getting under way in an attempt to retrieve lost ground. It is being spearheaded, not by the shaken state Republican Party, but by the “Virginians for Durrette”organization. That group is made up mainly of the so-called old guard of former Byrd organization loyalists along with the state’s independent conservatives. It is led by former Gov. Mills E. Godwin Jr. and former Del. Roy Smith of Petersburg. Godwin is an old warhorse who knows Virginia politics and is convinced that he knows exactly what it will take to get the attention of Virginia’s voters and attract them to his man. Indeed, he has outlined in advance the strategy of his rescue attempt. Godwin does not plan to focus his attack on Baliles, but rather on Baliles’ running mate for lieutenant governor, state Sen. L. Douglas Wilder of Richmond. The attack will be upon what Godwin calls Wilder’s “liberal record” during his 15 years in the Senate. Wilder, of course, is black, and while Godwin heatedly denies that race has any part in his choice of Wilder as his target on the Democratic ticket, he probably has most of the good ol’ boy voters chuckling quietly to themselves. Yessir, they agree, old Mills knows what he s doing. Just who actually will lead the Durrette rescue charge was unclear as this was written. Clearly it could not be Godwin or Smith. Either of them would arouse memories of their segregationist past if he should get too far out front. Former Gov. John N. Dalton was mentioned as a prospect, but there are angles to the strategy which he likely would find unattractive. We also have a desperate effort by Durrette’s camp to turn the polls around in the time remaining, with Godwin using the one weapon which might do it. That is playing on the fear, although unstated, of those who dread the thought of a black winning election to high public office, especially when the office is “a heartbeat away” from the governorship. The tricky part will be linking all this to the Baliles candidacy in such a way that a vote for Baliles would appear to be a vote for Wilder, or at least a vote in sympathy with Wilder. Of course it would not necessarily be either, but convincing the voters that it would be is what political oratory is all about. We wait with interest to see which strategy prevails when the voters go to the polls on Nov. 5.

Margaret Heckler Continued from page 4 program that requires a good administrator, assuming Mrs. Heckler is one. Moreover, the Irish have never shown any great talent for administration, nor have they welcomed it, especially when the administrators were appointed by the British government. They have other standards for judging American ambassadors. John McShane they liked because, as one Irishman said to me, “He set a good table.” Winston Guest, though a protestant, was accepted for his keeping and running horses in the Irish races, and Bill Shannon because in the minds of the Irish, and in fact, he was a scholar. That the administration could bungle a dismissal and transfer so badly is inexcusable, especially since it is given an almost daily example of how to get rid of a person by the Washington Redskins football team. The coach, Joe Gibbs, should have at least been called to the White House for consultation. He dismisses players himself, as the President’s special counsel Donald Regan should have done, as the agent of the President. Gibbs does not put the burden on Jack Kent Cooke, the owner of the team. He does not say that a dismissed player is performing well, but that he has shortcomings either in individual play or as part of the team. He says that it hurts him, even angers him, to have to separate placers from the team. He even allows p’ ayers still on the team to express their opinion and attitude towards the dismissal, to say that they are “angered” or “suprised.” The coach’s favorite word in describing the condition and performance of his team is that it seems to be “out of sync.” The special teams are judged to be “out of sync,” and the passing game is said to be “out of sync.” Coaches are even “out of sync” at times. The Gipper could have fallen back on football vocabulary and handled the whole Heckler case simply by saying that the Administration is “out of sync.” He could have used the words of Joe Gibbs, who of his recent personnel changes said, “I’m not making moves just to make moves... whether this will help us now, we’ll wait and see.” He might have also introduced a football device that makes the transition out of a position easier, AUCTION NOTICE Amissville Vol. Fire Dept.

Focus on energy awareness week, Oct. 20-27 oy DM H SWUl Eitcmton Afcnt Energy Awareness Week, Oct. 20-27, was established by the White House to stimulate public awareness and discussion centered around the need for sustained conservation and the development of energy resources and technologies. Progress has been made in stabilizing the energy supply, reducing waste and working toward more efficient utilization of our limited resources and in developing alternative energy forms. However, increasing energy costs will continue to place financial strain on households, communities, including Rappahannock County residents, and the country in the forseeable future. Ample materials are available to assist county residents in efficient utilization of resources. The Virginia Division of Energy has a number of publications available free to the public, among them is The Virginia Energy Book — Proven Ways to Save Money in and Around Your Home. The booklet was designed to “help take the guesswork and confusion out of selecting energy conservation improvements that give the best return on your investment. It will help you determine which energy conservation improvements are do-it-yourself projects and which are jobs for a skilled contractor.” In addition, suggestions are given on how to purchase energy efficient heating equipment, how to drive a car to achieve maximum fuel efficiency and much more. Most of the conservation measures can be made at low or moderate investments. The more costly tuusci vauuii measures wm even pay for themselves in a reasonable period of time. To receive the booklet and a list of other available energy information publications, write to the Virginia Division of Energy at the r roiiowing address: Virginia Division ' of Energy, 2201 West Broad Street, ( Richmond, Va. 23220. j Another valuable resource is a 1 consumer guide entitled “Play to 1 Win.” This guide, published by the 1 New York State Public Service ] commission, is available free of charge in an energy display located n the Rappahannock County Li>rary. “Play to Win” was developed o assist the consumer in getting the >est value out of your utilities (tele)hone, heating, water and electric) Thomas Spande, a Sperryville weekender, displays work at celebration Saturday.

Sperryville Continued from page 1 fected by three days of nice weather. This year, the corresponding weekend offered two sunny days. But that is still not the busiest three-day period in the park, according to officials there. Columbus Day weekend this year — the weekend preceding the celebration — attracted 72,399 visitors counting Saturday, Sunday and Monday admissions. In Sperryville on Sunday, the rains kept crowds at about 60 percent of Saturday’s turnout, but the traffic was busy enough to make the day a long one. “My staff thought they could go home” when it rained Sunday, Woodard said. “But they worked the whole day.” “We had all the people we could handle on Sunday,” added 0‘Bannon of the Emporium. Church groups made money selling food, the Lions Club reportedly doubled what they had hoped to earn over the weekend, offering apple butter. The “Artists of the Blue Ridge — A Regional Art Show” attracted thousands of people to view the work of 30 or so of the area’s artisans which was on display at Faith Mountain. Festival Coordinator Martin Woodard called the weekend a “tremendous success.” Woodard, also of Faith Mountain, added that he “wanted to thank the residents of Sperryville and all of Rappahannock County for their generous hospitality offered to our weekend guests. Although I am sure that some people were inconvenienced by the crowds, once again you proved that the land and people ... James J. Kilpatrick autographs book. of Rappahannock County are truly special.” Organizers billed the event as an “old-fashioned fall celebration.” “It put Sperryville on the map,” said Mrs. Woodard. “It was pretty incredible,” she added. “I’d never seen anything like it.” In addition to the apple celebration, the 29th annual Rappahannock House Tour and Dried Flower Sale was also held last weekend by the Bromfield Parish Churchwomen. The women also produced their traditional dried flower sale at the Trinity Episcopal Church in Washington and tea party at Ben Venue. On tour was the 240-year-old Greenwood Farm and the 140-yearold home of Mr. and Mrs. Richard The New York Street Theatre Caravan performs. I- 1 McNear; the Rush River House, which once served as a ski lodge, located at the approach to Big Devil Stairs; and Meadow Grove, a farm established in 1739 by a land grant from King George III. Breezy Gannon, co-chairman of the house tour, said an estimated 250 people toured the homes on Saturday and an additional 50 to 100 toured on Sunday. “All 21 of our flower arrangements were sold,” she said. In Sperryville, the more than two-dozen businesses joined to put on the Sperryville Apple Harvest Celebration. In addition, the Sperryville Antique Market conducted its third annual Craft Show. Some 30 artisans were on hand to show their work, including photography, jewelry, quilting, pottery, stained glass and woodworking. Also on hand were nationally known authors, James J. Kilpatrick (The Foxes Union) and Eugene McCarthy (The View From Rappahannock) — who both maintain homes in the county — who autographed their books. Virtually every shop in the community scheduled special events, from crafts, to special recipes, to live music, to giveaways. The event will “definitely” be scheduled for 1986 by the Sperryville Business Council, Woodard said. “In fact,” added Mrs. Woodard, “We had people asking, ‘Can we do another one next week?’ “The weekend achieved what it was supposed to and exceeded what anyone expected,” said Woodard. Bob Brents takes a break from directing traffic to house tour. Patti Mullan exhibited stained glass. The Mighty Saver!

CC team takes first By HELEN RUISI iMpriiannoch New* contributing writer The newly-formed Wakefield cross country team won first place in the 1986 Delaney Conference Men’s Division last weekend. The meet was held at the Sterling Campus of Northern Virginia Community College. Stephen Butler, a junior from Marshall, earned the first place trophy for Wakefield. Classmate Brad Pendergraph, of Haymarket, came in second place and another junior, Jason Walker, also of Haymarket, place sixth overall in the competition. Coach Gary Leake expressed great satisfaction with the trophy earned by Butler. He added that the team did the minority of the work on their own, which shows a great deal of initiative. Sports update As Wakefield’s varsity soccer team begins the second half of the 1986 schedule, the team has completed the busiest week of the season. Although the team collected two additional conference victories and a third interconference win, they were disappointed after being handed their second defeat of the season at the hands of rival Randolph Macon Academy, of Front Royal. During the week, Wakefield played Emmanuel Christian School twice, collecting victories in each encounter to raise Wakefield’s Delaney Athletic Conference record to 5-0. In the first meeting, solid play from the whole team surged Wakefield to a commanding 6-0 lead at halftime. However, because of severe rain, the match was halted only minutes into the second half with Wakefield winning, 6-0. In Hie second meeting with Emmanuel, Wakefield started sluggishly as several starters were missing from the line-up. Wakefield managed, however, to climb to a 4*-l lead at halftime. In the second half, Emmanuel began a comeback as they pulled the score to 5-3 midway through the period. Sparked by the third and fourth goals of the game by Larry Tarr, of Warrenton, Wakefield held on to capture the 8-3 decision. In the third game of the week, Wakefield traveled to Madison County High School where the team played the most exciting game of the season. Madison opened the scoring early in the game off a perfect crossing pass from their left wing. However, minutes later, Wakefield retaliated as Ed McGushin, of Haymarket, scored to knot the game at 1-1. - The score remained the same throughout the majority of the game as both teams moved up and down the field, each having numerous shots on goal. Finally, with only five minutes remaining in the game, Brian McGushin punched an excellent shot into the corner of the goal to lift Wakefield to a 2-1 victory. In the final game of the week, Wakefield traveled to Front Royal to face a fired-up RMA team. Early in the game, David Rowzie, of Amissville, gave Wakefield a 1-0 lead on a penalty kick, but minutes later, RMA came back to tie the score at 1-1. After a critical error by the Wakefield defense, RMA took a 2-1 lead that they carried into the halftime. Most of the second half remained scoreless until a second defensive error resulted in another RMA goal and final 3-1 decision in favor of RMA. Wakefield’s junior varsity soccer team faced Randolph Macon in Front Royal this week. During the first half, Jerry Latell and Emeterio Gomez, both of Huntly, scored for Wakefield while RMA also was able to kick in two goals tying the score at 2-2 at the half. As the second half began, Latell was able to score again for the Wakefield team but the stronger RMA squad retaliated with three goals that Wakefield was unable to counter. RMA won the match with a final score of 5-3. The junior varsity team looks forward to matches next week against St. Anne’s Bellfield and Woodberry Forest. The varsity field hockey team played the St. James School in Hagerstown this week. Although the final score was a tie at 0-0, the game was an exciting one as previously the St. James team had defeated Wakefield at every encounter. The Wakefield Hooters were challenged by St. James’ choice of playing under intra-school rules rather than the international rules that the Wakefield team is accustomed to. The choice of which rules will be used in a particular game goes to the home team. Despite playing under unfamiliar rules, several Wakefield players turned in strong performances. Nancy Massie, of Flint Hill, managed several fast breaks on the forward line and full backs Sharon McAllister, of Winchester, and Britney and Gaby Lee, of Flint Hill, demonstrated improved skills and staying power. The team’s next match is scheduled against Tandem School this week. Contributors to this article were Larry Tarr and Matthew Tucker. Wakefield students travel to Williamsburg By HELEN RUISI Rappahannock Newi contributing writer The fourth and fifth grade students of Wakefield School will be traveling to Colonial Williamsburg on Oct. 28 for a three day visit. The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation provides educational study/visit programs for overnight school groups from fourth grade through graduate school. The opportunities for studying colonial America and 18th century community life cannot be equalled in the classroom or a family visit. The thematic overview for the Wakefield trip will be “Young People — Old Times.” Students will discover the life patterns of an 18th century town as they walk with historical interpreters to investigate family and community life, visit domestic properties to gain understanding of colonial families, explore the relationship of these families to the surrounding community, observe and talk to craftsmen at work and examine the public buildings that served the colonial community. The historical interpreters, who are skilled study/visit leaders, use a variety of teaching methods, materials and learning centers to engage the interest and participation of the students in an effort to enrich and deepen their understanding of ColoRCES SPTA holds meeting Nov. 5 The Rappahannock County Elementary School Student Parent Teacher Association will meet Nov. 5 at 7:30 p.m. in the school’s library.

Runners split last race before meet Rappahannock County girls’ cross country runners defeated Brentsville District, but the boys lost to the Tigers in the final regular season meet of the season in Sperryville on Oct. 16. Both teams were scheduled to run in the Bull Run District meet yesterday in Strasburg. The Region B meet is scheduled for Oct. 30 at Piedmont Community College in Charlottesville. For the RCHS girls, the 26-29 win was highlighted by a course record-setting performance by Bonnie Grimsley, who won the race in 20:03, 25 seconds faster than the No. 2 finisher, Rappahannock’s Karen Ludwick. In all, the Panthers placed three runners in the top four spots to barely edge their Bull Run competitors. Kathy Dodson (20:49) finished fourth, Kelly Brown (24:26) was ninth and April Adams (27:47) was 10th. Two Rappahannock girls did ndi run because of injury.

Aileen outlet Continued from page 1 Consequently, foreign manufacturers were selling their goods at a lower price on the retail shelves. To combat that on an immediate basis, Aileen, Inc. has committed to opening factory outlet stores at selected sewing plants. The approach appears to be working. “I’d say that imports took about one-third” of the sales of Americanmade goods, Walker said. “They have certainly cost us business, no question. We could have been in very serious trouble today but we’ve contended with imports through our outlet stores.” The Flint Hill outlet store opened in late August, one of “40couple” to open nationally in the last two years. Another 40 or 50 stores r As a whole, Walker estimates factory stores — outlets where clothing can be sold at lower prices because of savings realized from decreased shipping and handling costs, as well as reducing the number of middlemen/salesmen and eliminating markups by retail dealers — have recovered about 20 percent of that one-third business lost to imports. For instance, Walker said the outlet store in Dale City near Woodbridge has “done $20,000 weeks,” a pace that would gross the store $1 million annually if it could sustain that pace. “You wouldn’t need too many of those to keep you in business,” Walker said. The Flint Hill factory outlet is one of two stores (the other in Victoria) selling “slightly irregular” gar"W ‘We could have been in very serious trouble today but we’ve contended with imports through our outlet stores* Aileen plant manager Wayne Walker are planned to open in the next two years, Walker said. The first Aileen factory outlet was opened at the Woodstock plant. And, although the Flint Hill store is “doing very well for us,” its local impact cannot yet be measured, Walker said. The plan is for outlet stores to account for up to 50 percent of all sales. Nationally, outlets “have done very, very well,” he said. “We feel this is a way of contending with the imports.” ments containing flaws that the average customer “would never notice,” Walker said. However, not everything is peachy at the Flint Hill plant. Aileen requested a zoning variance to put up signs advertising the outlet store. One such request, to place a sign at the busy intersection of U.S. 211 and U.S. 522 (Massies Comer), about three miles east of the store, was denied. One variance was approved by the county board of zoning appeals, that permitted a sign at the intersection of U.S. 211 and Va. 641 in Flint Hill. “I feel pretty sure we will re-apply” at least for permission to put a sign at Massies Comer, Walker said. “We need to take advantage of every edge and comer we can get.” Echoing the lament of the textile business in general, Walker said: “If we can sell garments, we can keep people working.” Walker said foreign competition became a serious threat “two or three years ago (when) we began feeling the impact of it,” Walker said. For years, clothing produced abroad — particulary in Taiwan, Red China and Korea where the current competition originates — was of inferior quality than that available in this country, Walker said. But government support within those countries permitted the industry to buy technically comparable equipment: Walker said wages paid those workers were in the range of “35 to 50” cents per hour, whereas an operator here working at 100% efficiency would make $4.98 per hour, based on piece-meal projections. The textile lobbies nationally are applying pressure on politicians to curb the importation of lower-price goods, to counteract what Walker calls an “unfair” advantage held by foreign markets. It appears the effort of the textile lobby is drawing support but “you never know,” Walker said. He added: The swinging “mood of the American people...will make something happen in this area.” Locally, the fight against imports has become political and very public. Workers at the Avtex plant in Front Royal staged a protest against undercutting imports during that community’s recent Festival of Leaves.

High school searches for recent grads Rappahannock County High school officials are attempting to contact, or “get re-acquainted with” its recent graduates. The school will be sending survey forms to graduates within the last 10 years — from the Class of 1975 to the Class of ’85 — who have verifiable addresses. The school urges graduates prior to 1975 to contact the school to provide updated addresses. A survey form will appear in the Oct. 31 edition of the Rappahannock News. The postcard survey distributed by the school will serve two purposes, according to Principal Robert Chappell. One is to update mailing lists. The second purpose is to determine whether a sort of homecoming can be organized. Chappell said graduates will be polled to see if an alumni basketball night can be scheduled for Dec. 21. “If there’s sufficient interest, we’ll probably play a ladies’ game at 7 p.m. with the mens’ game to follow at 8 p.m.,” said Chappell. Said Chappell: “We view the events... as sort of a homecoming.” Graduates should be receiving those surveys sometime in November, according to Chappell.

If we can sell garments, we can keep people working* Wayne Walker, Aileen plant manager Not only will the outlet stores increase sales of locally produced clothes, the factories will become a more stable employer, if the results follow according to plan, Walker said. By having a local store for which clothes are earmarked, factories no longer have to wait for samples to go into the marketplace, be sold to customers, ordered and made, which also requires a waiting period before materials arrive at the plant.

Friends reach out to help Jessie Waites By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Hwahunock New» contributing writer Extend a hand to help a friend and another hand follows the example...and another...and another... and another. A communal hand went out to Lanise Waites when friends learned that her seven-year-old daughter, Jessie, had leukemia. The Jessie Waites Fund was opened at the Rappahannock National Bank, and a series of fundraisers was planned, beginning with a benefit dinner tomorrow night. Volunteers stepped forward to bake lasagne and French bread, prepare salads and desserts, brew tea and coffee, serve the meal, add dinner music to the menu, sell tickets and design posters. The Castleton Fire Department agreed to the loan of its building, even though the starter’s gun is set to go off early the next morning for the third annual Turkey Ridge Run, the firefighters’ major money-making event. Donations were sent by old acquaintances who knew Lanise Waites at the Rappahannock Clinic, Fauquier Hospital and Primavera Alcohol Treatment Center where she had worked as a nurse. Dollars came from people she’d chatted with while picking up mail at the post office, or buying paint at the Rappahannock Co-op, or stopping for coffee at Nature’s Cafe. r Corda Child Care and Learning Center and Wakefield kindergarten asked to help.

Instead, persuaded by Kristi Johnson, Jessie’s former babysitter, the young people have now decided to give the money to the Jessie Waites Fund. Children — and their parents — who met Jessie at the Rappahannock Library’s story hour, the Sursum have now decided to give the money to the Jessie Waites Fund. They want to visit Jessie, either at home Insulate home for warm winter By BETH STOUT Extension Agent As the temperature begins to drop along with the falling leaves, Rappahannock County residents will once again be concerned with keeping the warm air in their homes. Reducing the number of air leaks in your house and effective insulation will help you to not only have a warmer home but also save money. According to the U.S. Depart ment of Energy, air leaks in your house may account for 1/3 to 1/2 of your heating and cooling bill. In most cases, air leaks around windows and doors have already been sealed. There are other places where air leaks out of your house that may be very costly. Electrical outlets and switches should be checked for leaks. Remove the cover plates and seal air leaks by placing foam gaskets behind the outlet plates. The holes surrounding pipes and electrical wiring, particularly those under sinks in kitchens and bathrooms should also be checked for leaks. Use caulk to seal up the holes. Fireplace dampers that are not tightly fit are another costly waste of energy. Warm and cool room air can leak out through the cracks. When the fireplace is not used, stuff the gap with insulation, but remember to remove it when using your fireplace. Fireplace covers or glass doors are effective in preventing warm air from escaping outdoors. Decorative covers can be made out of plywood or sheet metal. The plywood covers should not be used w hen the fire is dying out. Attic doors and trap doors that do not fit tightly should also be sealed to prevent heat from leaking out of the house. Insulation and weatherstripping can be used to alleviate this problem. Materials around the home such as rags, rugs, newspapers, plastic and tape may also provide temporary seals for the air leaks depending on their location. Effectively insulating your home is another necessary measure in reducing your energy costs. Knowing several basics and something about the different types of insulation can help you choose the most cost effective home insulation. Some of the basics are understanding the “R-value" of insulation, knowing which places to insulate and how much insulation to use, knowing the importance of using moisture-vapor barrier with any insulation, and knowing about types and forms of insulation along with possible related problems. Homeowners who already have ample insulation installed in their homes might consider other measures. Caulking and weatherstripping, treating windows and glass areas or selecting and maintaining energy-efficient heating and cooling systems would be practical projects. It is generally more economical to spread money over several projects. Always compare insulation by Rvalue rather than by thickness. Rvalue of insulation is a rating number given to each insulation product to show how well it keeps heated air from flowing through it. The higher the R-value of any insulation, the more it slows down air flow. During the winter, effective insulation keeps heat from escaping a home. During the summer, insulation keeps heat from coming into a home and it keeps cold air from escaping. Insulate these areas: unfinished attics, finished attics (between ceilling joists), exterior walls of a home, floors above crawl spaces and all around a slab foundation. Also insulate duct work ant’ plumbing in uninsulated areas. Different places in a home need different amounts of insulation. Experts use R-values to recommend the amount for each place. The Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code requires R 19 for attic floors and R-19 for exterior walls and floors. Most insulation has an R value of only three, four or five for each inch of thickness — so to reach higher Rvalues, it may be necessary to install several thicknesses of insulation or denser amounts. All insulation must have a moisture-vapor barrier to protect it from moisture in the home. However, in adding insulation to a place already insulated, you don’t need to put in another barrier. Insulation works because air spaces in it actually slow down the flow of heat through the insulation. It is im jortant to keep air spaces free from moisture or they cannot do their job. Some insulation already has a moisture-vapor barrier attached to it. For other insulation, the homeowner can use four or six mil thick polyethylene sheeting as a moisturevapor barrier. Foil-backed gypsum board also makes an effective, moisture vapor barrier, but its joints must be taped to give a solid barrier. Always put the vapor barrier on the warm side of the insulation. Insulation types used most often are mineral wool, cellulose and rigid foam. Mineral wool (fiber glass or rock wool) and cellulose are for sale in several different forms — as blankets in a roll or loose fill in a bag. Choosing a form will depend partly on the place in which it will be used. Loose fill is necessary for walls in already-built houses. In most other places, the homeowner has a choice of forms. Some insulation needs special treatments to prevent problems concerning the house itself and the family. They include possible moisture damage, odor, fire-related dangers, shrinkage, rodents or vermin and corrosion of metals, such as electrical light fixtures. For example, in interior walls, the insulation must meet a fire-retardant code. It is usually covered with a fire-retardant material, such as gypsum at least one-fourth of an inch thick. Also, insulation around ceiling or light fixtures or other heat producing equipment, must leave a three inch space. Before investing money in insulation, contact your local Extension office for a free Home Energy Computer Analysis that will tell you what conservation measures would be most cost effective in your home.

Stuart Streets, The Plains, Virginia or at the University of Georgetown Vince Lombardy Cancer Research Center, to put on a puppet show or maybe just to sing to her. And the hands that went out to Jessie and Lanise are reaching others, too. Originally, friends wanted to donate blood for Jessie. However, it takes 20 pints of blood for each transfusion of platelets given to the girl. Plus, her hospitalization insurance covers the cost of transfusions. But friends learned the Red Cross needed blood. Now, instead of driving, en masse, to Georgetown Hospital to give blood for Jessie, friends are collecting names of those who will pledge a pint. Sign-up sheets will be circulated at Friday’s dinner. When enough volunteers are found, the Red Cross said it will dispatch a bloodmobile here. The blood won’t necessarily go to Jessie, but it will go to someone else who needs help just as desperately. Helping hands are being turned in another direction by Steve Scoggin, a minister who will offer the blessing at Jessie’s dinner. As he sold tickets, Rev. Scoggin discovered that some folks who were unable to attend the dinner were nonetheless buying tickets. He suggested that fund organizers ask the Rappahannock-Rapidan Community Services Center, which holds the senior center nutrition program here, if those elderly clients could use the tickets. At press time, Sally Morgan, head of aging services, was tracking down a driver for the van to transport those citizens to the dinner in Castleton. Their needs would be provided courtesy of the people who wanted to support the benefit but could not come to the dinner. “The response we’ve had from everyone we’ve asked for help has been so heartening,” said Jane Mulr len, an organizer of the Jessie Waites Fund. And the news from Jessie’s doctors is equally heartening. Bone marrow and spinal fluid tests conducted last Friday show the leukemia is now in remission. Jessie’s quick response to the initial doses of chemotherapy and radiation improve her chances of beating the disease, the doctors say. “But they estimate that the treatments will have to continue for 2-1/2 to three years before the leukemia could go into permanent remission,” said Susan Turner, another organizer of the fund. “That’s why Jessie’s friends are here trying to raise money to help with expenses — living expenses and treatment expenses that insurance doesn’t cover,” she said. Friday’s dinner is the first of the money-making projects. Meals will be served from 5:30 to 9 p.m. at the Castleton Fire Hall tomorrow. The menu includes lasagne, garlic French bread prepared by the bakers for The Inn at Little Washington, tossed salad, coffee and iced tea. Desserts and other beverages will be sold separately. The Eclectics, Rappahannock’s acapella harmonizers, will sing, and Terry Waggoner and Vincent Day, who perform regularly at Sky land on the Skyline Drive, will strum dinner music. Scoggin, pastor of the Washington Baptist Church and former counselor to families struck by childhood cancer, will talk briefly about living with leukemia. Tickets, at $6 for adults and $3 for children under 12, are available in advance from Brambles Cafe, The Rappahannock News office, Middle St. Gallery and Washington Video, or from organizers of the events and helping friends. Tickets at the door are $7 for adults, $4 for children. A letter of thanks from the Waites I would like to use this space for a short note thanking our friends in Rappahannock County for all of their prayers, cards, phone calls and other expressions of support during Jessie’s recent hospitalization at Georgetown University’s Vincent T. Lombardy’s Cancer Center. We are learning as much as we can about leukemia and how to cope with it. Jessie is doing very well with her chemotherapy and is at home now.

THE CLASSIFIEDS AUTOS • HOMES ir BUY CALLC75-3338 GO CO CO CO i LO N. CO i CO o Stallone looking at Hunt Country By Arundel Newspapers Hollywood’s “Italian Stallion” may be considering a home in Clarke County’s horse country. Sylvester Stallone, accompanied by Danish actress Brigitte Nielsen and his father, Frank Stallone from Potomac, Md., recently toured two properties in Clarke, Locksley and Longbranch. Locksley, owned by Mr. and Mrs. Emil Jung, is the home of the American Association of Breeders of Holsteiner Horses. Longbranch, purchased several years ago by Norman Hicks, is a thoroughbred operation featuring a son of Seattle Slew at stud. Mr. Stallone reported expressed interest in both properties. The actor/producer who gained “superstar” status as an ambitious boxer in Rocky and super boxoffice success with his two Rambo pictures, was apparently undaunted by the $2,975 million price tag on Locksley’s 465 acres or the $1.3 million being asked for the 142-acre Longbranch estate. Home is their school It’s reminiscent of the one-room schoolhoose. The three children sit in their den-classroom and learn about phonics, addition, division and Gideon’s trumpets. Carolyn and Emily Dizer, the 4Vt and 7Vi-year-old daughters of Harleen and Tom Dizer of Warrenton, go about their daily home studies and don’t seem to be bothered by the distractions made by their 2-year-old brother, John. Contrary to the mixed reactions she gets when she tells people she teaches her kids, Mrs. Dizer said she has no complaints with the home study program. And she’s not alone in her mission to personally build her children’s characters and eliminate the negative influences of peer pressure. The Dizer children are two of 21 home-educated students in Fauquier. After the General Assembly approved the home study program last year, more than 500 Virginia parents applied for permission to teach their kids at home. Supervisor guilty of DUI Loudoun County supervisor Andrew R . Bird III (R-Sterling) pleaded guilty Monday in General District Court to driving under the influence of alcohol. The 40-year-old county supervisor, who was arrested just before midnight on Sept. 1, received a $200 fine and his license was suspended for six months by Judge Archibald Aiken. However, the judge will permit Bird to drive to work and to meetings of the Ethos Foundation at Alexandria for treatment and counseling. Staff against camp The Loudoun County planning staff has produced it* third report in a month on Sweetwater Farm summer ounp, which a group associated with controversial political theorist Lyndon H. LaRouche Jr. proposes near Neersville. Unlike the first two reports, however, the newest report recommends denial of a special exception to allow the camp. The camp has aroused intense public opposition because of the association between Campaigner Publications, which would operate the camp, and LaRouche, who lives under heavy security near Leesburg. The commission planned to make its recommendation on the application on Oct. 23. The request then would go before the Board of Zoning Appeals at its public hearing on Nov. 21. Doe blends into autumn foliage in Shenandoah National Park. Cow health tips in order By DR. W. DEE WHITER, D.VJL Extemkm Veterinary SpccUliat With calf weaning and cattle working on most producers’ agenda during the next month or two, some reminders about cow health management tips are in order. Every cow in Virginia should probably be put down a chute this fall to have a number of procedures performed. The most commonly performed procedure is the performance of pregnancy diagnosis. This is a highly recommended procedure as it will allow producers to select cows that have failed to become pregnant and cull them prior to providing large amounts of expensive stored feeds when no return on investment will result. If early winter calving is practiced, vaccination for scours using the E. coli products might be performed at the same time, however, if calving will not occur until later in the spring, vaccination should occur within two to three months of the calving season. If pour-ons or spot-ons for use in grub and lice control are to be used, these should be applied at the same time and this dictates working the cows before the first of November since this is the cut off date for the use of these products. Eyes should be examined on all cows as they pass down the chute, particularly those cows with no pigment (pink skin) around the eyes. This is true since cancer eye is a very common disease in cows over about five years of age. If small growths are detected at this time they can be successfully treated by your veterinarian and will save culling a perfectly good cow at a very reduced rate when the cancer becomes larger and can be readily recognized as cows go through sales. Look carefully for even small bumps at the place where the white meets the clear part of the eye, on the edge of the lid or on the flesh part in the center of the eye (the third eyelid). Mastitis is also a consideration in cows during the fall. Two broad categories of mastitis should be recog nized. The first category is the chronic mastitis that occurred during the last spring and summer. These cows may have been treated or may have gone unnoticed but now have quarters which have sustained large amounts of damage. These quarters can be recognized because they are larger and if felt, are often very hard. If the quarter is milked, an abnormal secretion often containing considerable amounts of pus may be seen. Some cows may warrant being kept if only one quarter is involved. Most cows that have two or more quarters involved should be heavily considered for culling. The second type of mastitis is acute mastitis that occurs in association with weaning. This is especially seen in heavy producing cows that are producing more milk and will occur within a few days after weaning. For this reason, cows should be examined closely for several dayB after weaning. Quarters that are very swollen or hard should be examined. Such quarters should be milked and treated with dry cow mastitis preparation such as is used in dairy cows. This may result in saving the quarter that would otherwise be lost if gone untreated. Body condition of cows should also be assessed at the time they go down the chute. Several methods have been developed for scoring body condition. A simple one involves classifying cows as either thin, borderline, moderate, good or fat body condition. Scoring each cow as she goes down the chute will allow accurate assessment of the average body condition of the cows. An important goal in reproductive management is to have all of the cows achieve moderate or better body condition by the time they calve. Since these cows will cycle sooner and thus be much more likely to become pregnant from next year’s breeding season, cows with inadequate body condition should be identified now. If the entire herd is lacking body condition, then nutritional management before calving must be such as to allow cows to achieve moderate body condition prior to calving. However, if only a few individual cows fit into thin or borderline categories, these cow3 may be segregated and fed additional high quality forage and/or concentrate in order to allow them to achieve moderate body condition. Many of these cows will probably be older cows and their teeth should be examined as they go down the chute. Cows that are very old and have poor teeth may not justify the extra feed and care that is required to have them achieve moderate body condition and hence, should be culled. Besides not becoming pregnant, these old, thin cows often become the winter “downer cows” if not given special care. Plan winter feed supply By BIRGITT THORNHILL Extension Agent If you haven’t done so, sit down right now and make a complete inventory of the stored feed, crop residues and late pasture you have available. If you have not done so, send a test of your hays and silages to VPI and get them analyzed. Just bring them by the Extension office and they will be sent for you. If you need to buy protein supplements, push the pencil to what protein will be the lowest cost. Prices will probably continue to come down some but at this point, no doubt, are nearing their low for the season. Get supplements and other concentrate feedstuffs booked when the {Mice hits the fall bottom. Remember that barley will continue to be a good buy this year, but probably will not be as far below com price as usual. Barley is about 90 percent of the feeding value of com so figure it out on a pound of com equivalent basis when thinking about barley.

SAT scores Continued from page 1 Rappahannock students who took the exam was 432, just three points below the state score (435) and one point better than the national (431) score. Local students, however, were siginificantly behind averages in the math portion of the test. The 429 local score on the math portion of the exam trailed state (473) and national (475) averages. Nationally, test scores rose for the fourth straight year after two decades of steady decline, and the results this year are the greatest of any single class in the last 22 years. Still, the combined score nationally this year was 74 points below’ the all-time high recorded in 1963 when the average math score was 502 and the average verbal score 478. The test is usually taken by about one million students annually and is can be used to track the changes in academic performances of Mental health fund drive The Mental Health Association in Rappahannock County is holding its annual fund-drive during October.

Lately, however, the SAT has been one indicator of the educational ability of a school system. In 1900, when the scores bottomed-out, educators and politicians demanded reforms. Last year, President Reagan set a goal of topping the 1963 SAT watermark by 1990. Locally, school officials also calculated the averages of those students who took the test who also entered four-year colleges. As expected, those averages were considerably higher and, in both cases, topped state and national averages. The 20 Rappahannock County High School students who went on to a four-year college compiled an average math score of 467, just slightly lower than averaged in Virginia and across the country. The verbal score, on the other hand, was 455, some 20 points higher than the state or national averages: The combined score of 923 posted by college-bound students was roughly 20 higher than state and national averages. Nearly 36,000 Virginia pupils took the exam. Male seniors had higher scores than females on both the math and verbal portions. Last year, the Virginia combined score was 894, five points lower than the national average.

Continued from page 1 ing local growers with apples on the ground. “The problem has been compounded because the processors also import foreign concentrate that they mix with water instead of buying the fresh product,” Snead said. “They don’t want juice apples, and they know they have us over a barrel.” He said processors accepting any juice apples are paying a little over $1 a bushel. “There is no way we can even get out costs out of that,” he said. Thomas Lee, Sr., of Lee Orchards on the Fodderstack Rd., said he estimated this year’s crop to be 60 percent of a full crop, but the apples have not been moving. What happens to those unsold apples? “They lie where they fall and feed the rabbits, I guess,” said Lee. Lee said the canning juice plants are not running now. “Last year, they were working two shifts at this time, and now they aren’t working any shifts,” he said. He said the dry weather caused the smaller apples and their tendency to drop off the tree sooner. “We needed rain at the beginning of September, but we didn’t get it so the apples all got ripe at one time,” Lee said. “Now everything has \ NUGGETS OFTRUTH 9 By: Associate Pastor Bill Taylor Family Worship Center. Washington. Va Healing Series Part 3 Take Healing to the World Continuing on with this senes we want Sto shed some scnptual light concerning f taking healing to the world We have gleamed that we are to teach and preach jjthe gospel (the gospei is telling people f how Jesus not only died for our sin - but he H also died so we could be whole pnysically J and mentally) There are mose who will f not accept or believe the teachings of Je£ sus! One reason why so many people toll day - Christians and non-Chnstians say t that healing has past away is because unf learned Chnstians have gone to sick peolf pie and layed hands on them without teaching them concerning scnptual healing and the sick people did not get healed because they did not hear the Word of God (Bible) and so they had no faith to bep lieve that God would heal them That is f why we must teach and preach to sick * people so their faith will be ignited to beJ lieve God can and wilt heal them f Let’s look at an example of Jesus ministry In Mark 6 1-5 Jesus had gone into [ his own country which was Nazareth and f he taught in the synagogue and many I heard him, but they were offended at him r because they knew he was a local car[ penter and they were astonished at the miracles wrought by his hands - and in verse 5 the Bible says he could there do no mighty work except lay hands on a few sick folk and heal them And verse 6 says that he marveled because of their unbelief We see in Mark 5:24-34 a women came to Jesus m need of healing and she said if I could but touch his clothes I shall be whole and m verse 29 she was healed of that plague and in verse 34 Jesus told her that her faith had made her whole, verse 27 says that she heard of Jesus, her faith was ignited and sne believed with all her heart if she but touch his clothes she would be whole, she got what she believed for! Jesus is the same today as he was then (Hebrews 13:8) if you need healing or you know someone who does - hear of Jesus through reading the Bible and your faith w* be ignited to believe God for whatever your need may be This concludes our healing senes, we truat this has enlightened you about God s hesfcng power If we can help you please Nuggets of Truth is sponsored by Robert Dunphy Ministries, Inc a non-profit ministry Our funds come from donations only If 200 of our readers will donate $1.00 each month, that win help keep Nuggets in the newspaper, will you help’’ Please mad your tax deductible $1 00 each month to ROBERT DUNPHY MINISTRIES, INC.

The prices last year were a little better.” He said the fresh market was fair for the Lee Orchards this year, but that will not make up for the poor juice market. “The juice apple market will make a year, and when that lower end is not up, we hurt,” Lee said. Herbert Foster, operator of orchards in Flint Hill and on Route 631, said the low juice market price could be due to a glut on the market. “They had hail in the Winchester area that damaged a lot of their apples so they had to be sent to processors,” Foster said. He said his orchards had 80-86 percent of a full crop. "That’s lots better than last year,” Foster said. Besides causing smaller apples, the drought also affected the color on Staymans, he said. Harvest was finished last week in Foster’s or chards, but he said his shed was full. “We’ll have apples up into November,” Foster said. Alex Sharp, of Washington, owns or rents 360 acres of orchards. He said picking would continue in his orchards for the next 10 dayB, but he estimated this year’s crop to be 3/4 ol a full crop. Unlike the other orchardists, Sharp said his apples have not moved as well on the fresh market. “Overall, this season isn’t anything to set the world on fire, but it’s not that bad, either,” Sharp said. Louis Moore, of Moore Orchards on the Fodderstack Road, said his orchard had 60-70 percent of a frill crop, which was lighter than last year. While other orchardists complained about stockpiles and apples being wasted, Moore said all of his apples have been sold except for winesaps. “We're sold out of everything else,” he said. IMm to the early spring freest and the late summer drought, the apple orchardists agree that this year was unusual. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen a year like this one when we started out great and then were totally cut off,” Foster said.

Culpeper, Virginia Office open daily weekends by appointment -SHUMAN_ HOME BUILDERS -INC703-625-5194 County responds Continued from page 1 review of an April 24 BZA decision to grant a special use permit to the church. The permit would allow construction on a 12.8 acre lot located a4jacent to the Halls’ property on Route 612. The Halls also asked for $260,000 in damages in addition to attorney's fees and alleged that the 26 acre lot, owned by Oscar and ' Stella Lozano, of Culpeper, was illegally resubdivided in 1977. The suit further alleges that the BZA, the Board of Supervisors and the zoning administrator were aware that the Lozano property was illegally divided, but failed to enforce the Subdivision Ordinance. In the brief, Luke cited state statutes supporting his contention that the only express right or standing granted by the Code of Virginia concerning subdivision is granted to subdividers and lot owners, and not to adjacent land owners. Luke anticipates in the brief that the Halls, represented by David Konick, will argue that if the zoning administrator illegally approved a subdivision, there must be some remedy. The remedy would be for the county to “vacate” the subdivision on the petition of an interested party or on its own, according to Luke, and the decision would be best made by a legislative body and not the court.
