The Medicare hospital insurance deductible, the amount a Medicare patient is responsible for when he first receives hospital inpatient services In a benefit period, will increase to $492 in 1986, Bruce A. Hundley, Social Security manager in Culpeper, said recently. The hospital insurance deductible in 1985 was $400. Also scheduled to increase are the per day amounts patients are responsible for paying after specific lengths of stay, Hundley said. In 1986 after 60 days of inpatient care in a benefit period Medicare will pay for all covered costs except $123 a day. The 1985 deductible was $100 a day. The basic monthlyv premium for Medicare medical insurance will not change from the/1985 rate of $15.50. Some people pay more than this rate because there were periods of time they could have had this protection but did not have it. The medical insurance deductible will remain $75, unchanged from 1985.

Artist wins grant By STELLA DEAN RICHARDS Rappahannock New* Staff Writer The Rappahannock County School Board announced on January 14 during its regular monthly meeting that local artist Dan Lewis will conduct an intensive 20-day visual arts demonstration at the elementary school this spring under the school’s ‘gifted and talented’ program. Payment for this project will come from a $1,650 grant from the Virginia Commission for the Arts and from matching funds from a portion of the school’s budget earmarked for the special program. Mr. Lewis, who owns the Middlestreet Gallery in Washington, has a background in both commercial and visual art. This particular project is designed to offer both students and teachers maximum exposure to the process of creating art. Students will encouraged to observe Mr. Lewis as he paints, draws and, possibly, forges jewelry. Because of his commercial art back.ground, Mr. Lewis will also help students with posters and other commercial art projects entailing layout/and design skills. Mr. Lewis will receive $2,000 out of the total $3,300 estimated cost of the program. . The school board was also presented with copies of the first edition of the ‘G.T. Journal,’ a newsletter covering the school system’s designated ‘gifted anc^|plented’ students. Two teachers each from the elementary and high schools put out this first edition, but later issues will feature more involvement from the students themselves. The first issue covers special chemistry studies by gifted and/or talented high school students, recent workshops for designated elemefitary students and a special second grade time machine project. Jt is expected that the ‘Journal’ will be a quarterly publication and copies may be obtained at the school board office. In other business, the school board examined and approved the Special Education Six-Year Plan. The plan, which goes on to Richmond for approval, is unchanged from a year ago. In submitting the plan to the board, Pamela Rowe of the school board office commented that the school board has “always ended up with more money than what I projected” the school would need. The issue of funds adequate for covering the school’s special education programs arose during discussion of current Congressional measures to cut federal expenditures for domestic programs. The board also discussed procedures to alert both teachers and the public in general of the opportunity to discuss at the board’s regular meeting next month, upcdming budget recommendations to) the Countv’s Board of Supervisors. Since (Continued on Page 14) Former Rappahannock County sheriff John Walker Jenkins, his wife Alice Jenkins, and her son William Hale were arrested at their home on Saturday, January 11, on a charge of abduction. John Walker Jenkins and Alice Jenkins have been employed by the Rappahannock County School District as bus drivers. Although they performed their regular job duties on Monday morning, January 13, they were not permitted to drive students during the afternoon. School Superintendent Robert Estabrook stated that he was informed of the arrest about 9 a.m. Monday at which time he immediately called an emergency meeting of the school board. Meeting at noon, members of the board quickly suspended the pair. The incident that prompted the felony charge, according to criminal complaint records issued at the Rappahannock General District Court, begat* at 2:15 p.m. on January 11 when Carroll Bosely, operating a wrecker truck, arrived at the Jenkins’ home with Farmers and Merchants Bank counsel John T. Hennessy, his wife Janet S. Hennessy, and Tammy Good who is a credit officer.of the bank in Stanley. The three arrived to repossess a truck owned by the bank. Payments on the truck was in default.-. / According to the criminal com-'plaint, John T. Hennessy parked his vehicle next to Mr. Jenkins’ truck. Mr. Hennessy and Ms. Good then proceeded to get out of their truck. They identified themselves to Wil-' liam Hale who is Alice Jenkins’ son. i Mr. Hale stated that he did not want to hear anything about it and that he would go. and tell John W. Jenkins about the matter. As the wrecker was backing toward the front of the Jenkins’ truck, William Hale emerged from the rear of the house with a shotgun. According to the complaint,/he fired the weapon and screamed for everyone to leave. / John and Aliee Jenkins then came out of the front of the house. According to the complaint Mrs. Jenkins also fired a pistol and “screamed to get the hell off the property.” John Hennessy then told Carrol Bosely to leave and told William Hale that no one wanted any trouble. Mr. Hale was approaching with ^7 a leveled shotgun, according to the complaint. During this time John Walker Jenkins and Alice Jenkins, who still had a shotgun in her hand, went tb the rear of the Hennessy vehicle. Mrs. Jenkins began screaming obscenities at Tammy Good and was, according to the criminal complaint, “threatening her. ” As John Hennessy began to back his truck, telling Mr. Jenkins that he was leaving, Mr. Jenkins stepped in back of the vehicle and said “No, you’re not.” Mr. Jenkins then told his stepson, William Hale, to block the Hennessy vehicle . with his truck. According to the'criminal complaint Mr. Hale, who was standing in front of the truck^with a shotgun, got in the truck and proceeded to block the Hennessy vehicle. Twenty minutes of verbal abuse then ensued with threats made by John Walker Jenkins toward John (Continued on Page 14) THE JENKINS RESIDENCE where incident occurred on Saturday. Council awards permit for building Citizens voice opposition at meeting-— By WILLIAM WESLEY TALBOTT Rappahannock New* Staff Writer An application for a special use permit was awarded to Dr. Werner Krebser and Dr. Jerry Martin for their planned office budding on Gay Street during the regular Town Council meeting January 8. A special use permit had previously been granted to the Krebser' Martin partnership in November but was rescinded because of an advertising error regarding the lot number. During the meeting Dr. Martin, representing the partnership, said that although questions had been raised regarding parking, they were “in compliance.” He said that the building would provide 24 parking spaces; 10 of these will be allocated for doctors’ offices and the remainder would be used by the welfare department and an adjacent real estate office. Mayor Peter Kramer then read a letter from Barbara L. Wood, mailed from London, England, who has bitterly opposed the building. In the letter she charged that the development would change the town. She also questioned Dr. Krebser’s qualifications to serve on a committee studying the parking situation in Washington. The public was asked for comments pertaining to the permit.

Robin Purnell, also speaking against the permit, said that the building would affect the quality of life in the town. “This town is very livable,” she said, “because of low level of traffic and commerce.” She stated that the new buildjng would alter that quality and said “I don’t want to see people pushed out by commercial enterprises.” * Diana Bird, who does not reside ‘The law we are functioning under is lacking7 —Mayor Peter Kramer spoke against the building, saying, “I feel that it is a poor use of the land.” She also believes the parking situation is bad. “We frequently are unable to park on our own parking in the town, also spoke against the permit and said that “what happens in the county is reflected in the town.” She called the two doctors “pivotal members of the commu Hall lawsuit delayed until spring Rappahannock News Photo/Greg Turner IVAN HALL will have to wait on his lawsuit. * Ivan and Hazel Hall, who are suing Rappahannock County over adjoining property, must wait to have the lawsuit considered, said Judge William Carson during the Rappahannock Circuit Court’s Term Day January 13.

Council member William Wickens criticized granting the building permit without a use plan for the town. He questioned Dr. Martin concerning the proposed parking flow; Dr. Martin said that a final decision had not been made on that point. Mr. Wickens* while saying that the building would be “visually attractive,” declared that he could not vote for the permit based on promises he made during his campaign. He said that he vowed “to protect the quality of life in this town against commercial sprawl.” He called Washington a “unique jewel” and said, “I think we need to preserve the historic character of this town.” He also said that he wants the planning commission to “finish its work. . .before we leave a giant A&P parking lot.” “We need to be very cautious” about granting the permit before “we lose something we can’t replace,” he stated. Council member Newbill Miller, speaking for the permit, said, “It’s not what we personally prefer, it’s what the law is.” He stated that he would prefer “very little construction in this town” but said of Drs. Krebser and Martin “they have complied.” The mayor also spoke for the permit but admitted reservations. He said that because of “conflict of interest, I should probably go home.” “I have to agree with Newbill,” said the mayor. “The law we are (Continued from Page 14) Holiday closings The following businesses and county offices will be closed Monday, January 20 in observation of Martin Luther King’s birthday: - The Family Guidance Services of Rappahannock.

Goy. Baliles proposes new approach to transportation MyMHJHABLMARTZ t_ r *™**LNewW«™8U«rWrit*r RICHMOND - When Gerald L. Babies was inaugurated as Virginia’s 66th governor Saturday, he said the state must “dare to be different” in trying to resolve its critical transportation problems. Gov Baliles met his own challenge Monday, when he unveiled a bold approach to transportation that includes creation of a special commission that would study the possibility of a state bond issue to pay for road construction and convening a special session of the legislature in September to act on the commission’s recommendations. Gov. Baliles made his proposal in his first State of the Commonwealth speech, less than an hour after Sen. Edward E. Willey (D-Richmond), the powerful chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, proposed a series of tax increases and other measures to raise approximately $127 million per year for road construction. The governor also established his priorities in education, the environment, human services, economic development, agriculture and public safety. He embraced the proposals in the $18.4 million biennial budget proposed by his predecessor, Charles S. Robb, but proposed additional budget amendments totalling $7 million to help the gate’s community colleges, its poor and children with high risk of early death. But transportation, which he called “the key” to Virginia’s economic growth, took 10 pages of his ^-page speech, delivered before a joint session of the Assembly. Improvement of Route 28 in Loudoun, Fairfax and Prince William counties and construction of the Route 7 bypass around Round Hill led the list of projects Gov. Baliles cited as evidence that a new transportation commission is necessary to address the state’s m^jor transportation needs. Both the governor’s program and Sen. Willey’s tax proposals direct that money be raised specifically for road construction rather than road maintenance, which is depleting highway revenue by a larger proportion each year. 1 Gov. Baliles proposed “a new form of the pay-as-you go concept” — the slogan that epitomized the disdain of former Sen. Harry F. Byrd Sr. for debt financing — that would establish separate trust funds tofinance road maintenance with the gasoline taxesand road construction with bonds, tolls or other forms of long-term financing. “Those of us who use today’s highways should pay to maintain and repair them,” Gov. Baliles said, “while those who tomorrow will benefit from the roads built for our future should share in the cost of building those roads. ” Sen. Willey’s proposals, embodied in three bills filed on Monday, would increase the vehicle titling tax by 0.5 percent, raise the gas tax one cent, abolish tax incentives for gasohol, place a $1 floor on the wholesale price of motor fuels (which has dropped steadily), increase fees for temporary tags and license transfers, and change how other revenues are collected and dispersed. “My bill will allocate all of the new money directly to construction,” Sen. Willey said. “That way both legislators and citizens will know the new revenues are being applied directly to new roads — not being added to administrative costs or diverted to non-highway use.” The governor outlined two phases of work for the special commission, the Commission on Virginia’s Transportation in the 21st f=\Real Estate sshzzsdEiitenM. Day realtor REPORTING INSTALLMENT INCOME If you soil a piece of property and the money will be paid to you in, say, three equal installments, how should you report the gain on your tax return? You can either report your gains each year you receive them, or you can report the entire gain on your tax return for the year in which the sale was made. Often you can save taxes by delaying your income with an installment sale. On your tax form, the return of your original investment is untaxed, your profit will probably be taxed at capital gains rates, and any interest from the installment sale is counted as ordinary income. However, if you claimed accelerated depreciation deductions, they will be partially “recaptured,” meaning you must now report some of those deductions as ordinary income. According to the new rules, these recaptured deductions must be reported as of the year of the sale and not in installments. Be careful: You might have a big tax bill, and not get all your money for two more years. If there is anything we can do to help you in the field of real.estate, please phone or drop in at EILEEN M.

Gerald Baliles grSfiraG^r^T™*' i Hickey century, which would be created by a special resolution introduced on Tuesday by Sen. Willey and co-sponsored by Sen. Charles L. Waddell (D-Loudoun), chairman of the Senate Transportation Committee, who met with Gov. Baliles shortly before the address. Its immediate task would be to define “our most critical transportation needs,” determine if “legal and structural” changes are necessary to establish separate trust funds, and recommend whether to seek general obligation or revenue bonds, as well as propose an amount for a bond issue. Its report would be due by Aug. L before the governor, who would ;hen call a special session of the Assembly in September. The commision’s second duty vould be to study the state’s transportation needs for the next decade, ncluding the Outer Beltway proposed around Washington (possibly through Loudoun), mass transit and :hannel dredging in state ports. The commission, which .would in elude all former Virginia governors, would consist of “business leaders, local government officials and prominent citizens from across Virginia who understand the importance of transportation to economic growth and prosperity.” Gov. Baliles also emphasized the need to influence the transportation policies and programs of the federal government, which provides 30 percent of the revenue uses for road construction in Virginia. The brunt of that job will fall to former State Highway Commissioner Harold C. King, who will become the state’s advisor on federal transportation issues. “Hal King is being used in the best possible way for the commonwealth, where his expertise has been used for the past 30 years,” said new Secretary of Transportation and Public Safety Vivian E.

V_ __—J Editorial Mandatory safety belts Progressive legislation will be sent to the Virginia General Assembly this session. J.Samuel Glasscock (D-Suffolk) will again introduce a bill to require citizens to wear their safety belts in Virginia. On Monday Governor Gerald Baliles told the members of the house and senate chambers that he wants to sign this safety belt legislation into law. People who are opposed to mandatory ssdety belt use laws usually have one battle cry — it’s yet another law that limits our •freedom. This is pure nonsense. Speed limits limit our freedom. Driver’s licenses limit our freedom. Stop lights limit our freedom. Yielding the right of way limits our freedom. Parking restrictions limit our freedom. Driving while sober limits our freedom. In a civilized society, we do have limitations of freedom. On the highway these limitations save lives. Each year in the United States there are 20,000 front-seatoccupant fatalities. There are two million injuries in the same category. Safety belts, according to studies, reduce the occurrence of injuries and fatalities by about 50 percent. Mandatory safety belt laws work. More than 30 countries including, Great Britain, France, West Germany, Japan, and most of the Canadaian provinces have mandatory safety belt laws. In Sweden, where this kind of legislation was introduced, severe and fatal car injuries were reduced by 45 percent for drivers and 67 percent for passengers. Safety belts protect occupants from ejection, collisions from the side and rear and against second and third collisions. Airbags do not help in these kinds of accidents. Safety belts do. We urge you to write those representing you in Richmond. Let them know you support this law. If you do not currently wear your safety belt, we urge you to get in the habit the next time you get in the car. The Virginia Auto Safety Alliance (VASA) coordinates and supports the efforts of citizens and groups working at the local level for a safety belt use law. To get involved, to start saving lives, write them at — 1011 East Main Street, Suite 212, Richmond, Virginia 23219. Thank you The newly elected governor has told members of the General Assembly that-he wants to sign a mandatory safety belt use law during this session. The governor has begun his term with excellence by supporting this forward-thinking legislation. We thank him. Rappahannock heritage Old Fletchers Mill Let citizens H^ote on State Lottery Letters To the editor: Once again, it is time for the Virginia General Assembly to decide upon an important issue: a voluntary tax, know as a State Lottery. For the past several years, thousands of Virginians have offered their support of my efforts to persuade the Virginia General Assembly to allow a statewide referendum on the question of a State Lottery. This referendum would allow the citizens of the Commonwealth the right to vote on the question of a State Lottery. Funds generated from a lottery would create a great deal of revenue for the Commonwealth; however, some legislators persist in denying the people the opportunity to decide, by democratic process, whether the Commonwealth should reap the same financial benefits currently being enjoyed by many other states. If you believe, as we do, that benefits from a State Lottery can help provide better pay for teachers, higher quality education, caring treatment for our senior citizens and a cleaner future for the Chesapeake Bay, then please plan to come to Richmond for the public hearing on the pottery. The hearing will be held ‘Eliminate the cruel practice of trapping9 To the editor: Having just brought my loving pet back from the veterinarian and having paid him $91.50 to treat a paw crushed by a jaw trap, set less than 100 yards from my door, I feel the need to do all I can to eliminate the cruel practice of trapping in Virginia! I don’t resent the money and would pay my last cent to help my loving, trusting pet, but no amount of money can make up for the pain and heartache this has caused. So I am launching a campaign to get people who love animals, both wild and domestic, to call or write their elected representatives on both county and state levels. I expect one percent of the population or less trap for sport and the other 99 percent are animal lovers, or at least are against unwarranted cruelty, not to mention the pain and expense this out-of-date practice imposes on the rest of us and our pets. A lot of you out there may not know of the practice most trappers have of killing all cats and dogs they find in their traps just so people won’t know what happened to them, even though they may not be badly hurt. I even caught the county trapper killing my cat. Thank heavens Augusta County fftas eliminated this inhumane practice. If you love animals please at least talk to your friends and other voters about this problem and maybe we can make Virginia a state where pets don’t die suffering. Your local SPCA may also help if you contact them. R. M. “MIKE” WILLIAMS Waynesboro on Monday, January 20, at 10 a.m. in House Room D of the General Assembly Building. The more people who come to support our efforts, the better chance of the General Assembly allowing Virginians the right to decide on the lottery question for themselves. So make the move -— come to the hearing on January 20 and give your support. Your presence will make a difference. We need your help and when the people of this Commonwealth are finally allowed to decide for themselves on the lottery issue, you will be glad you made the effort. Thank you for your support. J. W. “BILLY” O’BRIEN Delegate, 83rd District A realistic view To the editor: The Virginia Medicaid program is designed to provide a safety net under poor Virginians. The aim of this program is to make adequate medical care available to those who cannot afford it. Whether the care is adequate certainly is debatable. Apart from its questionable efficacy, however, the Medicaid program suffers from a severe flaw. The program does not pay for the care that Medicaid patients receive. Instead, the legislators of Virginia have placed a large burden on the paying sick, requiring them to pay for the Medicaid program as well as for their own medical care. The present reimbursement rate to physicians for each Medicaid patient does not cover the cost of caring for that patient. Who pays? For years the physician has absorbed the / Rappahannock News photo/Gieg Turner loss, but several years ago he was forced to pass most of the loss on to the paying sick. This amounts to an oppressive hidden tax on those Virginians who are in poor health. For those outside the health care system, it might seem that I have overstated my case. The fact is that in the past 10 years, the General Assembly has increased the fee .paid to physicians for a visit of a Medicaid patient by only 5 percent. During this same time, most expenses nearly doubled. We at the Foundation for Christian Medical Care (a nonprofit institution) care for a large population of elderly and indigent. The inadequate reimbursement rate of both Medicaid and Medicare is producing for the Foundation an operating loss. Unless something is done soon to correct this problem, we will no longer be able to take care of the medical needs of anyone. Already many of the physicians in Virginia will not accept Medicaid as payment 4 for patient care. It is time for our lawmakers to take a realistic view of caring for the medical needs of our poor and our elderly. It is not fair to place the burden on the paying sick. We should all carry our fair share of the load. CHARLES S.

- zoning time for open land Commonplace notes An analysii _ - By ARTHUR W. ARUNDEL Publisher RICHMOND — In the course of an extraordinary moment in Virginia history, we from the Piedmont received a striking word from Virginia’s new governor, Gerald L. Baliles. If the granite monuments of Richmond were unmoved at what was seen and heard Saturday at the inauguration of Virginia’s 65th governor, mere mortal beings were moved and tears were shed. It might have been enough that American history was made with the simple oaths of office of a new governor, lieutenant governor and attorney general — because they were administered to a white male, to a black grandson of a slave and to a woman. National interest was upon that. But in his inaugural address, the new governor set a very clear new set of priorities. First it was, of course and rightly, upon education. Then secondly, he went on at length to address the coming work W “our national inheritance” and “resolve that the legacy we leave to future generations is not one of despoiled air, toxic waste and polluted waters. Our laws must be shaped and enforced . . .” He went on in tough words about preserving “Virginia the Beautiful.” it was an uncommon message on the stuff we live on from Richmond. But this governor in these times has given expression to the harsh realization that there are in fact finite limits to our air, land and water resources. Attention to this huge and growing global issue is soon to escalate here with naming of a new cabinet-level secretary for' natural resouces, someone ideally a respected and practical environmental executive. The character and lifestyle of the Virginia Piedmont, where we live and where these politicians campaigned this past year, is moving now into new and uncharted waters. After more than 200 years, the historic rural agrarian and open space character of Fauquier, Loudoun and all the other land which feeds clean air and water to the nearby cities faces large new forces at work which may soon make this area a very different place in which to live and to have future expectations for our children. If measured simply upon the harsh experience of neighboring' states to the north, it will be progressively worse than now. For the hills, meadows and streams of Virginia’s Piedmont have now become interlocked with the central dynamics of eastern urban America’s growth. An extraordinary grid of five four-lane highways has in recent years made this part of metropolitan Washington’s new"growth zone. Some evidence of what lies ahead comes from census numbers showing these Piedmont counties, after a half century of sleepy growth, to be today among the fastest growing in Virginia — with a rate of population expansion since 1970 faster even then that of Fairfax County. The acceleration rate is neither slow nor controlled growth; it has moved over onto the fast track, a ^Lane in which it is customary for weighty outside developers to begin playing Chinese checkers with wellintentioned local planning and zoning ordinances. Experience by now shows something of this life in the fast lane. More northern states and neighboring counties, including Fairfax and Prince William, are evidence of what it means — rural housing sprawl, plastic shopping centers and an economic result benefitting the few out of state corporate developers at the pocketbook expense of the many local people who live there and pay taxes (more than 300 percent higher in Fairfax). The political will of the people on all of this in Fauquier County was clearly spoken six years ago when its voters delivered a rather clear mandate: They threw out the pro-fast growth old supervisors and elected new ones. The message was to set zoning which will stop rural subdivisions outside of town service districts, that industry and housing growth should come not along rural roads but around core towns and villages designed to provide affordable and efficient utilities, streets, schools and law enforcement. That also is the sustaining editorial page com 6We need this open space preserved because it speaks silently back to our roots and to the challenge against which our character as a people was formed,9 mitment of this newspaper. That smashing election mandate and the agenda Gov. Baliles has set in Richmond are unmistakable expressions of today’s public will. There is a current agenda item in Fauquier on this, a proposal to change rural zoning for homes to one per 10 acres, rather than one per five. If the public will were tested on such a question, the candidate advocating development in 50 acre tracts would be the walkaway winner. We have become in 1985 street savvy to what happens with rural subdivision sprawl across farmland. Someone is even apt to come up with a campaign for the future built upon surviving with WALT — Water, Air, Land and Taxes. This generation, including those who have fled here from the ruined living fabric of other parts of the nation from Fairfax to California, has learned of the economic, visual and tax cost of rural development and the environmental price of carving out roads, sewer systems and housing lots across sensitive watershed areas such as northern Fauquier and western Loudoun, which serve as a water sponge to all of the people east of the Blue Ridge. A rugged lot The essential long-range issue is not whether the land is most profitable for farmers or for developers. In truth, the farmers, a characteristiT cally rugged,'self-sufficient lot, have not come whining for help and should not be given any more consideration than any other businessman. The issue is one of developing new safeguards for watersheds, fields and woodlands which cannot be economically farmed. It is a pretty good time at the dawning of 1986, with this new governor in place, to take longer view of open space as a profitable resource in itself, both to people here and to our neighbors around us. Open space and land and trees and streams give everything; they demand no tax services. ^ There is not much of this stuff left in this part of America; certainly there is nothing as plainly beautiful to the eye. Our natural open fields, hills and woodlands over the centuries have helped form our very character and shaped our history as a county and as a people. Open spaces are‘the main reason so many have come here to make their family home, and why so few ever want to leave. Something will have gone out of us as people here if we should let these remaining open spaces be destroyed, if we permit the last woodlands to be turned into carpenter’s boards and comic books, if we drive the few remaining wild birds and animals to zoos or extinction, if we pollute the last clear air and dirty the last clean stream and widen our roads for traffic through the last of the silence — so that Fauquier, Loudoun, Clarke and Rappahannock become just another indistinct blur to future travelers passing through the needless Urban sprawl from Washington, D.C., and Fairfax and Prince William counties. The making of leaders We need this open space preserved because it speaks silently back to our roots and to the challenge against which our character as a people was formed. Ours is a place which somehow has sent forth a strong lot of farmers, business leaders, military heroes, governors and American presidents over the centuries. Pulitzer Prize-winning author Wallace Stegner has written: “It seems to me significant that the distinct downturn in our literature from hope to bitterness took place almost at the precise time when the frontier officially came to an end, in 1890, when the American way of life had begun to turn steadily urban and industrial. “The more urban it ffas become, and the more frantic with technological change, the sicker and more embittered our literature and, I believe, our people have become . . Our open land near Washington now also represents a large opportunity to the nation’s major real estate speculators and developers. Elsewhere their finished product advertises Fox Hollow, Meadowvale, Hunt Country Estates, Mountain View and all sorts of “farmettes.” As the outside developer bastardizes the integrity of such words, he also destroys the strong integrity of the local Realtor and real estate industry. A visual value We need this open space for challenge, hope and excitement. It is important not only to the economic future of the farmer, but to the visual order of meadows and hills which have forever opened up the mind and will yet play upon man’s untouched ideas in science, medicine, government, technology and industry. We simply need our open countryside available to us, even if we JIM REED SAYS. . . Reed Motor Company is 2 years old and celebrates with 2 great ways to save!

As Stegner wrote, r “It can be a means of reassuring ourselves of our sanity as creatures,, a part of the geography of hope. ” And so the issue is drawn in sharpest terms today between those who would keep the rural land open and those who would commercially subdivide and build it over — a choice to be given or taken from the next generation and all to come. If the worst places in hell are reserved for those who in times of moral crisis take a neutral position, the people of this county and state are designed for heaven, for they have in our recent local and now state elections voted to forge the future for themselves and their children. Together we are dealing here with a future which may lie beyond our vision, but which does not lie entirely beyond our control. It will take not only fair and careful policy planning, but that special grace under many counter pressures demonstrated here by this new governor to move along with the job.

^Rappahannock Country' Ocean-going yacht anchored in Rappahannock By STELLA DEAN RICHARDS Rappahannock News Staff Writer Hemmed in by the rolling hills of Rappahannock, in an old hay barn, lies the battered relic of a once proud ocean-going sailing yacht. Pigeons cooing high in the oaken rafters overhead have replaced the gulls which once cried as the boat cut through the waters of the Chesapeake Bay and the North Atlantic. John Cadwalader’s life changed considerably when he left the sea and returned to a life of agriculture near Woodville. The son of a Naval officer, John spent many years of his childhood in and around boats. His interest in boats culminated in the puchase of the 31-foot yacht Altair, which now nestles in a sea of hay, surrounded by assorted carriages, an ancient Case tractor antfvarious farm machines. / The last ocean-going cruise of the yacht was-Jn 1974, when John decided to spend the montm of September with tfle spectator [fleet at the America’s Cup races oh Newport, Rhode Island. It never crossed the skipper’s mind that tm* voyage would terminate in a bam in Rappahannock County. The weather was hot, sticky and windless on the day John left Annapolis on a single-handed sail for Newport, but by evening, the wind was up to gale force, with thunder and lightening rumbling in the distance. The storm was brief and John barely had time for a quick rain shower on deck. The second day’s voyage was marked by intensely hot weather and a nice spinnaker run 45 miles up the Chesapeake Bay to the Bohemia River where the Altair anchored for the night. The third day was characterized by a passage through the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal and an exciting sail down the Delaware Bay to Cape May harbor. The following day, members of John’s family came Coast Guard Auxiliary appoints new officers By DOROTHY C. DAVIS Rappahannock News Contributing Writer U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla 14-05 based in Colonial Beach, Virginia, recently held its Change of Watch ceremony and installed new officers for 1986. Among those sworn in were Rappahannock County residents Dorothy Davis as Flotilla Staff Officer-Public Affairs and Robert Mahlbacher, Flotilla Staff Officer-Communications. The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary is an all-volunteer organization created by an Act of Congress in 1939s as a non-military, volunteer affiliate of the Coast Guard, and as such, plays a substantial role in the National Safe Boating Program.

The voyage from that point to Shinnecock Bay on the south shore of Long Island was a 48-hour ordeal, involving countless wind shifts and sail changes, a squall of 50 knots with driving rain, as well as periods of flat calm, burning sun and hordes of buzzing flies. All this produced intense fatigue. A shark charged the hull on two occasions and a large sea turtle — about three feet long and covered with marine growth — surfaced alongside the yacht, providing a glimpse of a rare inhabitant of the open sea. In view of the heavy weather and the difficulty of maintaining a steady course for any period of time, it was not apparent, upon seeing the south shore of Long Island, at precisely what point landfall would be made. By good fortune, John elected to steer to a light visible to the eastward, which proved to be — as hoped — Shinnecock Inlet. The Inlet was untypically calyt-fehat evening and it was an easy matter to negotiate the entry. But after 60 hours without sleep, even the simplest tasks became an extreme effort. John stumbled around on deck furling sails and coiling lines. He was too tired to make himself supper, but gambled on one last cup of tea before turning in. He got the tea made, but in lifting the cup to his lips, fell asleep and poured the entire contents down the front of his shirt. This had the undesired effect of waking him up for the unwelcome task of cleaning up the mess. In contrast to the quiet sea John faced when entering Shinnecock Inlet, conditions were chaotic going out the. next day. Seven -oot seas tossed the boat almost vertically and nearly dropped her onto the bottom in the troughs. The voyage from Shinnecock to Block Island was great sailing with a full moon that evening and a thunderstorm threatening in the distance. The compass light gave out during the night in a puff of foul smoke and John sailed by a star in the constellation Cassiopeia, which brought him to a safe anchorage in Great Salt Pond harbor at Block Island just before midnight. The sail from Block Island to Newport was exciting, with competition from another lone sailor’s boat of similar size. At Newport, the Altair sailed in company with the spectator fleet during the course of the races and participated in the full excitement of yet another American victory. On off days, she sailed on several occasions to Woods Hole and to Martha’s Vineyard, Mass. The voyage back to Annapolis was varied by a passage through Long Island Sound, the&East and Hudson Rivers, past the Statue of Liberty and down the New Jersey coast and back to Cape May and Annapolis. Two weeks after the boat had safely completed this demanding voyage, vandals armed with a .22 caliber rifle perforated the hull with bullet holes in an attempt to sink the vessel. It became apparent that until major repairs could be effected, the boat would never be seaworthy again. The Altair’s last journey was by farm trailer, towed first by a borrowed dump truck from Annapolis to Culpeper and thence to Rappahannock through Culpeper and Madison counties by an aging two-cylinder John Deere tractor. County viewers stared as the cumbersome load lumbered along the F.T. Valley road and then down the narrow, winding road to the skipper’s farm.

Vet the sooner you do realize it, the better. We can’t possess another person no matter how dearly we love them. And in the case of our children, we are custodians, not owners. You take him for a walk around the block and people stop you to say, "What a beautiful baby!” You try to be modest about it, but your heart is bursting with pride. He is the most beautiful baby — and — he's yours! Or is he? Start going to church this Sunday. Chances are that they've even got a nursery for beautiful babies! He is a beautiful baby — and you, naturally, want nothing more than for him to grow up into a fine young man. It is your responsibility, in the years ahead, to help him do so — and you will find the strength and guidance to aid you in your task in your church.

S. tsy toLiUiAUti m BLUMIJUH Rappahannock News Contributing Writer “This year is our children’s year,” is the motto of the Student, Parent and Teacher Association (SPTA) of Rappahannock County’s Elementary School, who have embarked upon an ambitious program of activities for 1986. “In short, parents and teachers get together, with the school’s blessings, to provide what tax dollars often cannot provide for their school and their children,” observed acting SPTA Chair Cindy Andreoni. “Although we still believe that more of our tax money must be devoted to the schools, we also understand that we must devote our personal resources, time and money, to improving them. Parents want the best for their children and are willing to work cooperatively to achieve common goals.” At its first monthly meeting of 1986, the SPTA learned that the Rappahannock Elementary School sign, which it had commissioned for placement on school property, had been approved by the school board and was now awaiting zoning board approval. The 4x6 sign, designed by the local artist, Linda Nacamulli, is. to be permanently placed in front of the school. Currently, there is no building ^identification of the school. ine Sr i A win purcnase ana nave the sign installed at its expense. Mrs. Andreoni announced that Mr. Gregory Drescher’s sixth grade class now had a microscope for its science projects, courtesy of the SPTA. Several other teachers have requested and received funds for specified needs, including art, computer and playground equipment. Also purchased was a computer program designed for newspaper editing. Faculty advisor and sixth grade - teacher for the school, Lucy Ann Maeyer, stated that “our first newspaper edition is scheduled for late February and we very much appreciated the SPTA’s role in this worth- ' while educational endeavour.” SPTA members also voted to assist with a “gifted and talented” program meetmg between interested parents anaichool administrators to be held in the near future. Other SPTA activities in January include popular sock hops, with the first scheduled for January 17th. “Our sock hops offer better-than-ever sounds, due to our new stereo equipment and our talented disc jockey. The children thoroughly eryoy themselves and the SPTA raises funds to support school projects,” explained Edie Clark, coordinator.

Wakefield basketball team ties for first in conference By HELEN RUIS1 AND DUANE FUNK Kawmhann©ck News Contributing Writer* Wakefield School’s basketball teams have stepped up their momentum as the varsity and junior varsity teams have talked five consecutive wins between them in their most recent games. This moved both teams to a 2-0 standing and a first place tie with Seton School in the Delaney Athletic Conference. Wakefield hosted Emmanuel School at home for back-to-back varsity and junior varsity games. The junior varsity team defeated Emmanuel 49-10. Carey Maar of Front Royal led in scoring with 12 points and Sean Miller of Woodstock, Jerry McDowell of Warrenton and Michael King of Midland followed with 10, 8 and 7 points respectively. “We were hot; they were cold. What more can you say?” commented Coach Gary Leake. “We dominated the rebounding part of the game and the majority of our points came off of the fast breaks. Our experience won out over a young team.” The varsity team went on to a resounding 69-30 victory over Emmanuel. David Rowzie of Amissville led the squad with 13 points. Eddie Ferguson of Huntly and Nick Longerbeam of Berryville each scored 10 points and Louis Poore of Washington earned eight points for his team. Coach Leake attributed the team’s 25 takeaways which “led to easy shots” as an important factor in the victory. The Wakefield teams then faced Emmanuel at an away game where once again the Wakefield squads swept both matches. The junior varsity won 51-22 as Joey Giacofci of Haymarket led the scoring with 11 and Maar and Robby Roberts of Nokesville each scored nine points. Coach Leake said, “We won the game with mostly second string players.” In the varsity match, Rowzie, Poore and Ferguson had a combined total of 34 points to earn a 50-24 victory in a game in which the Wakefield team was able to dominate both - sides of the floor. In the most recent game of the season, the junior varsity t&^n traveled to Blue Ridge School anctwrapped up their winning streak with what was termed “nice revenge” by Coach Leake. The Wakefield team managed a 45-27 victory after having lost to Blue Ridge by seven points earlier in the season. Ferguson, who had not played in the first Blue Ridge game, led the team with 17 points, Brian McGushin of Haymarket scored 12 and Maar had 10 points. Coach Leake said, “They were much taller so we had to play a zone and with our full-court and half-•court presses we pressured their guards into turnovers.” The teams have away games scheduled this week at Woodberry Forest and Tara Reston.

\ JC Business Estimated income taxes By Q. EARL YANCEY Rappahannock Newa Contributinf Writer The average person doesn’t need to be a tax specialist. Accountants are here to serve that need; they will see that all the niceties are taken care of so that you can pay the least amount of tax under the current law. Nevertheless, you will get more value from your accountant’s services if you are better acquainted with general tax concepts. Many taxpayers are paying unnecessary penalties for underestimating their income taxes. Most people who work for a salary have an adequate amount of taxes paid in through withholding to eliminate “underestimating penalties.” Those taxpayers with income not subject to withholding such as rents, royalties, dividends or self-employment business income may need to pay quarterly estimated taxes. In general, you will not be subject to an underestimating penalty if you have paid in 80 percent of your taxes due on your current tax return. It’s difficult to determine 80 percent of your tax liability when you don’t know your annual income until the year is completed. Therefore, many taxpayers use a second IRS releases filing estimates Internal Revenue Service estimates 2,539,000 individual income tax returns for 1985 will be filed by Virginians. Approximately 2,500 returns will come from the Rappahannock area, according to IRS figures. The 1985 tax forms are generally unchanged from last year. There arc, however, a number of changes in the tax laws to consider when completing the returns. The tax tables and schedules have been adjusted so that inflation will not increase taxes. Indexing has also increased to $1,040 the amount allowed as a deduction for each exemption claimed on the return and the zero bracket amounts for all filing statuses have increased. The amount for single individuals is now $2,390 and for married persons filing a joint return the figure is $3,540. There are changes related to divorced and separated individuals. The exemptions for children of divorced or separated parents will be claimed by the parent having custody unless that parent waives the right to, claim the exemption or a pre-1985 written agreement states the non-custodial parent can claim the child. Under a pre-1985 agreement, the non-custodial parent must provide at least $600 for the child’s support. Those individuals recently separated from their spouse may file as unmarried if they did not live with their spouse-at all during the last six months of the year and their child is living with them. Beginning in 1985, the deduction for use of a car in performing services for a charitable organization has increased to 12 cents per mile. If the total deductions for gifts of property is more than $500, a form listing the property must accompany the tax return. For 1985, if individuals do not itemize deductions, they may deduct one-half of their charitable contributions. Thoslf individuals who use their automobiles for business purposes can claim 21 cents per mile for the first 15,000 miles of business use of their car in 1985. Original owners of a diesel-powered car, van or light truck after January 1, 1986 may be entitled to a one-time credit or refund of diesel fuel tax. Additional information on these topics and other changes appears in the instructions which come with the tax package. Last year some Virginians may have received their refunds later than usual because of problems that Corrections In the January 9 issue of the Rappahannock News we incorrectly reported the manner in which user fees will be determined for the Sperryville Sewage Treatment System. Project Administrator Wayne Cilimberg states that “user fees will be derived by dividing the yet to be finalized system budget by the number of equivalent dwelling units (EDUs) to be served by the system. A dwelling unit is defined as ‘any room, group ofrogms, house trailer or other enclosure occupied or intended for occupancy as separate living quarters by a family or other group of persons living together or by a person living alone’. An EDU is based on the average estimated volume of sewage generated in a dwelling unit. EDUs will be applied to both multiple residential and nonresidential users of the system based on the EDU schedule contained in the sewer use ordinance adopted.” The Rappahannock News regrets the error. In the January 9 issue of the Rappahannock News Pauline Bruce wrote a letter to the editor stating her support of the Scrabble site for a dog pound. “We were told that more than $400 had already been invested there” was incorrectly printed; the amount stated in her letter was $4000. The Rappahannock News regrets the error. In the January 9 issue of the Rappahannock News a chimney fire at the residence of Kirk and Pat Davis was reported to have occurred in an unlined chimney, based on a firefighter’s statement. According to Pat Davis, the residence has a lined chimney. The Rappahannock News regrets the error. arose from major changes the IRS made to its returns processing system. The IRS resolved these problems by installing more computer equipment, redesigning computer programs and increasing its staff to improve the level of service to the public. The IRS is advising Virginians to file their returns as soon as all the necessary records are available from employers and financial institutions. Individuals who file at the last minute are more likely to make errors on their returns. Common errors which delay processing include mathematical errors, incorrect use of the tax tables and entries on the wrong lines. A review of the return before it is mailed will avoid many of these errors. The Internal Revenue Service will continue to provide toll-tree telephone service and walk-in assistance to Virginians. The hours for the Winchester office are Thursday, 9:00 a.m. to noon, 12:45 to 3:30 p.m. In addition, the IRS will offer group return preparation assistance in local communities during and after -normal working hours and on weekends as part of its Outreach Program. The toll-free number is 1-800424-1040. This number is less busy early in the morning or later in the day and during days later in the week. The IRS said many answers to general tax questions can be found in the tax package instructions or in over 90 free IRS publications that can be requested by using the order form in the tax package, or by calling 1-800-424-FORM. Virginians can also use Tele-Tax, a service that provides recorded tax information on topics of general interest. The Tele-Tax telephone number is 1-800-554-4477; a list of taped tax topics can be found in the instruction package of Publication 910, “Taxpayer’s Guide to IRS Information and Assistance.” NUGGETS OF TRUTH By PASTOR BOB DUNPHY Family Worship Center, Washington, Va. Dear Friends, have you noticed lately the Lord has been dealing with you about the sin that is in your life? Well don’t feel lonely He is working on everyone, not only the unsaved sinner, but His Body also. Back to the unsaved for a word or two, look in Ephesians '1:5, God wants all people to come to Him through Jesus which is the only way. John 14:6 Jesus died for all people, but many have not allowed Him to be their Lord. But those of us that have accepted Jesus with our hearts as Lord must walk in his footsteps to be blessed like He promised us in His word. Church, we are in the very last days and God wants His church to be spotless (Ephesians 5:27) this is what the Father God is teaching us now. Most preachers that hear the Holy Spirit are preaching God's holiness (not man’s). Jesus said in John 15:1 "I am the true vine, and My Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit, He taketh away. There will always be some that get saved and then don’t follow Jesus, but that is not His will. John 15:1 where it says God will remove some from the vine does not mean they are going to Hell, but they will live a sickly, defeated, unhappy life here on the earth and many die before their time, they will be taken out of the way of those who follow Him. We will continue along these lines next week. God Bless You! Nuggets of Truth is sponsored by Robert Dunphy Ministries Inc., a non-profit ministry. Our funds come from donations only.

If you pay 100 percent of last year’s tax liability, you will not be penalized for underestimating even if your current year tax liability is larger than that amount. If you file your tax return and pay the remaining taxes due by January 31, 1986, you are not inquired to make your fourth quarter estimate which otherwise is due January 16,1986. If you receive a penalty notice for underestimating your taxes, do not pay it without a close review. There are three computations available to all taxpayers which may avoid a penalty for underestimating. Q. Earl Yancey, CPA, is a ViewUrum resident and maintains his accounting practice in Warrenton.

Council members agreed that no violation of law would occur although Mr. Wickens made one dissension on a point. Voting for the special permit were Mayor Peter Kramer, Treasurer Brad Fisher, Council members Newbill Miller, Dorothy Clater and Wallace Critzer. Council member William Wickens abstained. Council member Evelyn Willis was not in attendance. In other matters, the council passed the budget, reviewed a new brass valve to be attached to water meters, and heard from a resident interested in placing a stop light at the intersection of Main and Middle Streets.

Because a felony charge had been instituted, School Superintendant Estabrook said that he convened the urgent meeting of the school board because of his “legitimate concern for the safety and well-being of youngsters.” He said that all bus drivers who apply for the position are required to pass driving tests and annual physical examinations. According to the Superintendant both John and Alice Jenkins have had acceptable driving records. All drivers, he said, have three recommendation forms to indicate the character and dependability of the person applying for the job. Following the action of the school board, a letter was mailed to the pair indicating immediate dismissal. Mr. Estabrook said that both Mr. and Mrs. Jenkins are entitled to an executive session of the school board in order to appeal the decision but only if they request the action. ences will be tackled next. The curriculum guides will answer such questions as “What needs to be taught in high school calculus?” or “What should students know by the end of fourth grade science?” “The whole thing is mind-bog- ■ gling,” said board member Nancy Reeves. Mr. Campbell said, “I think everyone responds better when they know what is expected of them up front. This work will be a tremendous guide.” School Superintendent Robert Estabrook reported that work on the “old part” of the high school roof had been completed in mid-December and that all of the roof repairs “should be wrapped up in a few weeks.” He added that the total cost could be as much as $1,200 below the original bid.
