In a special meeting called to address the town’s concerns about the proposed location of the county’s sanitary landfill, Mayor Dean Morehouse noted that “water is our major concern.” Treasurer Brad Fisher, who oversees the town’s water authority, told the council that several years ago a state geologist mapped the underground aquifer which supplies the town’s well and reported that it runs northwest to southeast, roughly in a line from Flint Hill to Sperryville. The geologist also reported that the rock structure in the area is fractured, and that “waste disposal sites in the area could contaminate (underground) water.” Mayor Morehouse observed that “with regard to the water supply we have to be cautious... We need to make sure that enough money is appropriated by the state or county to fulfill (their) responsibilities.” Councilman William Wickens seconded the mayor’s concerns, adding “Once a water supply is contaminated - to clean it up takes a long time. The town could be dry for a long time. ... I don’t want to second-guess the county - but protecting our water is the prime concern.” Mr. Fisher suggested that monthly reports on monitoring wells, if the proposed site should be selected, be furnished to the town. ' - ■■■■ ----- ■ Several council members also expressed concern about the increase in traffic from vehicles traveling to and from the landfill. Mr. Wickens suggested that “if it has to be located where it is proposed, traffic should go onto (Rt.) 522 - otherwise the traffic problem in town is inconsistent with the comprehensive plan.” Mr. Morehouse added that “the Fodderstack (Rt. 628) is not an access for 6600 citizens. In the winter it is especially hazard ous.” Councilman Nan Thomasson replied that “the Fodderstack is hazardous on a normal basis. ” Mr. Wickens observed that “we were criticized for talking about tranquil streets - this will make the traffic infinitely worse. “We shouldn’t be hypocrites - we all want a landfill, but not in ‘my’ backyard. ... I find it hard to believe that one mile from the county seat is the optimum site. . . . But if it is I still have concerns,” Mr. Wickens continued. Evelyn Willis added that “I see only disadvantages to this plan. Can’t we ask the supervisors to look elsewhere? Ask for three months; six months; to find somewhere else?’ The mayor replied “. . . (the supervisors) are under a tight time constraint. They have a deadline of July 1, 1987 to close the Woodville site (the present landfill on Clifton Clark’s property on Rt. 621 outside Woodville).” Mr. Wickens retorted, “Sometimes disasters are bom of necessity. This is incredibly poor planning. . . . the traffic . . . the proximity to population centers The council members 51so expressed concern about the possibility of waste from outside the county being deposited in the landfill; smell; possible problems with rodents at the site; and the visual pollution caused by burning at the site or by windblown garbage in the surrounding area. Mr. Morehouse added, however, “if they have a license to operate in the county, there’s not a thing we can do ak*out (those concerns).” “Those are not matters under the purview of the council,” Mr. Wickens agreed. “We can’t do anything.” Charlie Eldred suggested that “a lot has been said tonight that I’m not sure the council as an official body can address . . . but there are several concerns you can address firmly. Traffic can be addressed through the Continued on page 18 Council changes meeting The Washington Town Council has changed its regularly scheduled meeting from last night to tonight, Thursday Octo ber 9. The meeting will be held at the Courthouse at 8 p.m. Rappahannock News photos/Lou Hatter FLINT HILL RESIDENT Frank Huff is among the many people speaking in opposition to the proposed landfill site. Supervisors delay landfill decision By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock News Staff Writer Facing a courtroom packed with opponents to a proposed dump 1 1/2 miles from the town of Washington and the possibility that a more suitable site near Amissville may be available, the Rappahannock Supervisors put off until this Friday a decison on whether they’ll recommend approval of a sanitary landfill on the Lee property. For the supervisors, it was one of those Monday mornings when it didn’t pay to get out of bed. A hundred or so people filled the courtroom and spilled over into the downstairs hall, and in three hours of testimony, not one spoke in favor of the landfill proposal that the supervisors had hoped would solve the county’s trash problem. It was a crowd that reflected a cross section of Rappahannock - natives and newcomers, large landholders and small lot owners, farmers, retirees and commuters who had taken the day off from city jobs to attend the public hearing. Prompting the outcry was an application from Tom, Loretta and James Lee for a private landfill on 128 acres between Fodderstack Road and Route 211. The Lees plan to use a ridge top on the tract for disposal of an estimated 14 tons of trash per day, including construction debris and sludge. In addition, they intend to seek a permit to burn brush, tree trimmings and stumps. Under new state regulations, when the Virginia Bureau of Solid Waste Management receives an application for a sanitary landfill, the locality is notified and given the option of scheduling a public hearing and making a recommendation to the state on whether the site should be approved. However, tne noara s position on this is in no way binding” on the landfill regulatory agency, zoning administrator John McCarthy noted. But should the board vote no and the state goes ahead and issues a permit after extensive site studies are conducted, zoning approvals must still be secured, he told the audience. “We’d have at least four more public hearings ... No trash will go in that landfill until the board says it does!” As a preamble to Monday’s public hearing, Mr. McCarthy read a letter from Robert Forman, regional consultant for the Bureau of Solid Waste Management, reporting that his preliminary inspection found the Lees’ property suitable for a sanitary landfill. But Mr. Forman added that detailed hydrological and geological studies must be conducted and hn operational plan and a closure plan approved before a dump permit is issued by the state. Mr. McCarthy also reported - without further elaboration - that the board had considered four alternative sites: 40 acres of the Striker tract near Amissville, the Clark property where the present landfill is located, the Carrigan tract near Scrabble and land owned by Eldon Farms near Routes 707 and 231. Before yielding the floor to the crowd of speakers, Chairman Hubert Gilkey noted that Mr. Forman had advised seeking approval for more land than the original 10 acres covered in the Lees’ application. Later in the meeting, he told the audience that the 25 acres now proposed for the dump would provide 25 to 30 years of capacity for the county’s trash. According to the supervisor chairman, the board has not yet de RAPPAHANNOCK’S BOARD OF SUPERVISORS listens to the concerns of citizens at Monday’s public hearing.

The landfill, although proposed as private rather than county-run, would be for “Rappahannock County residents only,” Mr. Gilkey emphasized again and again throughout the three hour hearing. “The gate will be locked when the landfill is closed and there will be somebody there when it’s open to monitor everything that’s put in.” Noting that the Lees have applied for a permit to burn brush and stumps, he stressed that this will also be restricted to Rappahannock County origin; construction debris from Northern Virginia would not be accepted. But the assurances from the supervisor chairman did little to quell the opposition. Speaker after speaker echoed the same themes, citing insufficient information on the site itself, potential for water pollution, traffic hazards on the Fodderstack, the proposed dump’s proximity Continued on page 5 Apple Harvest fest called a success By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Despite some threatening clouds and a few scattered raindrops which caused some anxiety Saturday morning, the second annual Sperryville Apple Harvest Celebration went off without a hitch last weekend. “I’ll give it an A-plus!” Jimmy Swindler of Country Manor Gift Shop said enthusiastically. “We were as busy as we will be on the peak weekends for the fall colors, and the trees have hardly started to turn.” He added that “visitors really seemed to enjoy the Manor’s apple butter-making demonstration. That was a first for us, and was certainly the most successful presentation to the public which we have ever done.” i Mr. Swindler said that several visitors remarked that they were suprised at the number of things to see and do all around Sperryville. Also, he said, several people mentioned the difference between the Sperryville celebration and some of the other fall events in the area, where an admission charge is levied, either by the person or carload. “They were amazed at the things they could do for free.” “It was a really super weekend,” Phyllis Swindler agreed. Certainly one of the major attractions of the weekend was Rappahannock native and internationally known folksinger John Jackson, who played two concerts, Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Mr. Jackson, who was born and raised on a farm about three miles outside Sperryville on Rt. 231, told the Rappahannock News that “it feels great to be back home again.” He brought his son James and long-time bass player Paul de Jardins to accompany him, and along with Madison County’s Moses Gentry the part-time gravedigger, parttime musician (as Mr. Jackson describes himself) entertained about 100 people at the mid-afternoon shows. ? Mr. Jackson’s wealth of tall tales, country stories, and banter with the audience was interspersed with a musical repertoire which ranged from traditional spirituals like “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot” to more secular numbers like the “Bootlegger’s Blues”. At times he had the audience, which ranged in age from less than eight to nearly eighty, clapping and singing along as his distinctive deep voice boomed out the songs which he had first learned as a young boy on his family’s farm in Rappahannock, and which in more recent years have been heard in such faraway places as London and Sri Lanka. “This is a great thing. I’m really glad to see so many groups involved, like the 4-H Club and the Junior Continued on page 18 Theresa Reynolds for the Rappahannock News RAPPAHANNOCK NATIVE JOHN JACKSON returned to his hometown last weekend. He brought along his son, James, and entertained the crowd with his special blend of Piedmont music, which he has made famous world-wide. Halls seek $250,000 for civil rights violation By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock News Staff Writer The stakes have been upped in the case of the illegal subdivision. On behalf of Ivan and Hazel Hall, attorney David Konick has filed a complaint seeking $250,000 in damages, plus attorney fees and costs, from the county for the alleged violation of his clients’ civil rights. In addition, he asked the court for a temporary injunction, restraining Stella and Oscar Lozano from selling either of their 12-acre lots on Route 612 near Sperryville and enjoining the county from issuing a building or other permit for the lots. Mr. Konick also petitioned the court to declare null and void the 1977 subdivision plat dividing the 26 acres now owned by the Lozanos into two 12-acre lots and the special exception granted by the supervisors earlier this month to validate that subdivision. The county, the Halls and the Lozanos agree that the 1977 subdivision violates Rappahannock’s ordinances. But agreement stops there. The Lozanos contend that they are entitled to rely on that subdivision - which allows them to sell their 26 acres as two lots - because the county’s agent, Zoning Administrator Evan McNear, approved the division. Rejoining the two unimproved lots into a single parcel would cause them financial hardship, the Lozanos maintain. Ivan and Hazel Hall, the adjoining landowners, argue that they are entitled to rely on enforcement of subdivision regulations which preclude both resubdivision of land and subdivision of lots less than 25 acres on rights-of-way less than 50 feet. When they learned of the Lozanos’ intentions to sell one 12-acre lot for construction of a church, they first opposed issuance of the necessary special use permit. When the permit was granted by the Board of Zoning Appeals, they filed suit, petitioning the court to overturn the BZA’s decision. But Circuit Court Judge Shore Robertson ruled that the Halls had not exhausted their administrative remedies and directed them to ask the Board of Supervisors to vacate the contested 1977 subdivision plat. The supervisors refused. Meanwhile, the Lozanos filed a request seeking special exceptions to the prohibition against smaller lot development on rights-of-way less than 50 feet and other requirements of the subdivision ordinance. Following a long executive session at their September board meeting, the supervisors voted unanimously to grant the exceptions. That vote led to the complaint filed by Mr. Konick last Thursday. (The Halls’ first suit is also still pending.) Subdivision history The property that lies at the center of the controversy was originally Continued on page 18

Contemporary rambler featured on Tour The 30th annual Rappahannock House Tour and Dried Flower Sale, the popular event held on the third weekend of October since 1956, will be held from 11 a. m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, October 18, and from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday, October 19. The last home to be shown on this year’s tour will be that of Eino and Celine Siira, approximately 5.7 miles west of Washington on Rt. 612 in Old Hollow. This contemporary rambler was built in 1980 with the Siiras doing much of the work themselves. The entry, beyond two large doors, is brightened by a skylight in a chase lined in blond oak. Immediately in front of the entry hall is a formal living room, with three bedrooms off to the right. Although there is a large recreation room on the lower floor this house plan is unique in that the “living” part of the house is centered around a sitting area, with a large diagonal fireplace and opening directly on the end of the house-wide eat-in kitchen. The kitchen has a lovely view down Old Hollow, and features a large center range island. Although it is modern and efficient, the extensive use of natural wood makes it warm and rvl ooonnt Also connected to the sitting area is a formal dining room and off to the rear a sun porch with views up Old Hollow. Besides the recreation room on the lower floor there are a sewing room, workshop and a Finnish sauna. In addition to the many original art works from the U.S. and abroad there are displayed many mementos of the Siiras’ 14 years with the State Department where Eino Siira was an agricultural advisor. The Siiras’ last station was Panama but the majority of those 14 years was spent in East Africa, primarily Ethiopia. Among a variety of horns of African game animals are photographs, shields and native wood carvings. On the front of the fireplace on the main floor are three Coptic crosses in brass from Ethiopia. Tea will be served here both afternoons of the tour. Other houses on the tour include Caledonia Farm, owned by Phil Irwin, 4.4 miles north of Washington on State Rt. 628, and Heritage House in the center of Washington, Sean Kilpatrick photos THE SURA’S CONTEMPORARY rambler, located in Old Hollow about five miles outside Washington, is the third house on tour this year. home of James and Nancy Thomasson. Miss Ruby Jenkins’ Washington Museum, featured in Virginia Magazine and Country Magazine, the Rappahannock Historical Society Building and the Rappahannock County Library housed in a historic former Presbyterian Church will also be open during this weekend. Headquarters for the tour and flower sale is the Parish Hall of Trinity Episcopal Church whose Churchwomen of Bromfield Parish sponsor the event. Tickets will be sold at the Parish Hall or at the tour houses at $5 for a block ticket and $2 for individual houses. Lunch will be available from the ladies of First Washington Baptist Church at the Trinity Parish Hall. For further information contact D. C. Rnuepfer, Rt. 1, Box 1080, Washington, VA 22747, (703)6753744. THE BRIGHT, AIRY FEEL of the Siira’s kitchen is enhanced by the use of large areas of glass, as well as a center work station to provide more working room while retaining the illusion of open space. Trible behind tax reform United States Senator Paul Trible called tb^tax reform measure a good bill. Speaking on the floor of the Senate during consideration of the tax reform bill, Trible said, “The tax reform measure is not a perfect one, but it’s a good bill and it moves us in the right direction. “Lower marginal tax rates will be an incentive for greater economic growth and job creation. “This bill will help create a fairer tax regime where similarly situated taxpayers will pay roughly the same amount of tax, and everyone will pay their fair share. “Moreover, this bill will create a more productive economy - one where economic decisions are based on merit and real return and not on tax avoidance. “Although this is generally a fine bill, it needs to be improved in a number of areas and I hope Congress will act promptly to make these changes. “One area of special concern is the tax treatment of contributory pension plans. “For many, many months, I opposed any changes in the method of taxing contributory retirement benefits. I offered an amendment, narrowly defeated, during the debate on the tax bill, which would have maintained the current tax method, permitting retirees to receive previously taxed contributions to their pension programs before being subjected to federal taxes. “The tax reform measure contemplates thousands of changes in ii/k-eii. , FACTORY \OUTLET ^Ladies First Quality Sportswear \ LARGE SELECTION of fabric available knits & woven ALL FALL LINES Now on Sale We have a $5 fall rack and also an S8 rack STORE HOURS Monday-Saturday 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. LOCATED IN Flint Hill, Virginia Route 641 off Route 522 703-675-3735 the current law. Yet, of all the changes being proposed, only one provision affecting individuals would apply retroactively. That single provision applies to public employees who contribute to their retirement programs, by eliminating the threeyear basis recovery rule effective July 1,1986. “I believe that public employees deserve better treatment, fairer treatment and hope that Congress will act to restore fairness in this area. “Second, I believe we need to do a better job in providing incentives for investment. There are two areas that are particularly troublesome, the treatment of depreciation and capital gains. “Finally, I have reservations about the raising of the ‘floor’ for the deduction of medical expenses.

We will be constructing an entirely new economic regime in which all of us will have to learn to live and prosper. Perhaps most importantly, we are constructing a tax regime where future economic decisions will be based on merit, value and real income and not on tax avoidance. That is bound to establish a more effective and efficient and healthy economy,” Senator Trible concluded. Leading citizens ‘arrested’ That’s right! Under “arrest” are Sheriff John Henry Woodward, Mayor Dean Morehouse, Supervisors Charles Estes, Nelson Lane and Richard Latham, the Rev. Jennings Hobson III, attorneys Doug Baumgardner, David Konick and Bill Fletcher, Clerk of the Circuit Court Diane Bruce, Randolph Clater, Robert Eastham, Washington ARB member Jim Thomasson, real estate agent Ray Cannon, Marie Davis and Rappahannock News journalists Daphne Hutchinson and Lou Hatter. Although some of their friends may wish otherwise, the “arrests” are all in fun, part of a fundraiser and publicity campaign dubbed “Cardiac Arrest,” sponsored by the American Heart Association. According to the Heart Association, more than 20,000 Virginians will die of heart disease this year. That’s more than the total number of deaths from cancer, accidents and all other causes of death combined. The major focuses of the Association’s fund-raising and volunteer efforts are research and prevention. On the research side, the Association contributes more than one million dollars each year to fund projects at Virginia’s top medical facilities. The Heart Association’s funding was instrumental in the development of, among other innovations, the artificial heart valve, heart-lung machine and CPR techniques. But even better than the successes achieved in overcoming heart disease are the Association’s efforts aimed at prevention. At the top of the prevention list are the Association’s educa tion programs directed at cigarette smoking, high cholesterol diets and high blood pressure. All three of those risk factors are controllable, at least to some extent, by almost everyone. Other programs are aimed at the benefits of exercise and good nutrition. Over the past 10 years, the mortality rate from heart-related problems has dropped by 28 percent, and the mortality from strokes has been cut by 44 percent. But the Heart Association points out that even with that success, one of every two Virginians will still suffer from some heart-related disease at some point in their lives. The volunteer “arrestees” are trying to help in two w'ays: by raising “bail” of $100 each (which will be given to the Heart Association) through donations from family, friends, business associates and other sources in the community, and by making the community more aware of the serious threat that heart disease poses to all Rappahannock County residents. Whether the cost is monetary, through insurance premiums or hospital bills, or more personal, through the suffering or loss of a loved one, the Association says that heart disease touches everyone. The Association will also accept the donation of volunteer time, and urges anyone who would like more information about heart disease, the “Cardiac Arrest” campaign or about the donation of money or volunteer support to contact Phillip Strange (937-5858), Betty Webb (937-5689) or Jon Heddleston (987-8137). Peak leaves predicted in about one week Shenandoah National Park Naturalist Chuck Anibal predicted that the peak of the fall leaf season will occur “in about one to one and a half weeks.” He reported that the color change is “right on schedule,” and that he doesn’t expect peculiarities of any significance arising from the recent dry weather. Virginia State Climatolologist Pat Michaels said that the prediction for the next week to 10 days is for temperatures and rainfall above normal. He added that the above normal temperatures will tend to slow the color change in the leaves, since the color change is a chemical reaction within the leaves related to the number of cool nighttime hours. Dr. Michaels cautioned, however, that “we don’t know for sure how it will turnout.” Several local prognosticators have forecast an unusually cold winter, based upon a particularly heavy crop of hickory nuts, early and furious scrambling for the nuts by the Cabin Fever re-opens October 18 & 19 with a special sale of country antiques and quilts Hours 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. local squirrel population, the amount of black on the woolly bear caterpillars now appearing in the county, among other traditional folklore. Asked about the forecast accuracy of such traditional bellwethers of the seasons, Dr. Michaels replied, “There is absolutely no scientific evidence to support the accuracy of any of those forecasts.” When he was requested to give his own long-range prediction, Dr. Michaels called for “slightly above normal temperature and rainfall for the period through November. He added, laughing, that his ability to forecast the weather a season in advance is “better than flipping a coin - but not much.” WHY WAIT FOR WEEKS?

V_ _/ THURSDAY, OCTOBER 9,1986 Editorials Please be generous This week is Fire Prevention Week. Throughout the country, children and adults alike will be exhorted to “Be careful with fire.” The winter heating season, especially in a rural area with its many residents who heat with wood, is statistically a dangerous time of the year, with a high incidence of serious fires. We join with the Virginia State Department of Fire Programs and the Rappahannock Fire and Rescue Association, along with the county’s individual volunteer departments, in urging all Rappahannock residents to play it safe with wood this winter. Information about safer wood heating, a major cause of house fires, is available from the county government offices, fire departments, the building inspector, and most stores which sell wood stoves. All stoves are sold with information about safe installation, and those guidelines should be followed. In conjunction with Fire Prevention Week, several of the county’s departments are holding their annual fund drives, and others are preparing similar campaigns. We urge all residents to give generously when the volunteers call on you. They are your neighbors, who give their time to protect the lives and property of all the county’s residents. It is a costly proposition to equip and maintain a fire department. To outfit one firefighter costs more than $1000 (coat, $300; pants, $250; boots, $90; helmet, $95; gloves, $20; pager, $300). The average cost of a fire truck is $120,000; an ambulance costs at least $50,000 (or more for advanced life support equipment); one set of breathing apparatus costs $1200; and 50 feet tone length) of fire hose runs between $70 and $110. The state does not provide any funding to the county’s fire and rescue departments. The county’s contribution last year was $6200, which went to pay the Association’s liability insurance premium. Other than that, the departments are on their own. They rely on the various fundraising activitives throughout the year to keep going. Much of the time it is touch and go. They defray the cost of new equipment by getting by with surplus or cast-offs from other departments. The companies rely on their neighbors to support them. Your donation does not have to be large — every little bit helps. But please, give what you can. The volunteers will not check the books to see if you have contributed before trying to save your life or property. But the donations they receive will enable them to better serve ALL the residents of the county. The better trained and equipped the firefighters are, the better able they will be to deal with the situations they encounter. The county’s volunteers need your help. Please respond — it’s your turn. 4-H opportunities We join with President Reagan in celebrating National 4H Week, recognizing an organization which has a long and proud history since its founding in 1917. Since that first year, 4-H has “graduated” more than 45 million boys and girls from its program, many of whom have gone on to higher education and then back to the farms, carrying with them the knowledge which they gained along the way. The land-grant university system, of which 4-H and the Cooperative Extension Service are both integral parts, has made a major contribution to the innovations which American farmers have brought to the production of food. Research on new methods of maximizing yields, hybrid varieties of food crops, as well as new equipment based on work done by engineers at the universities have all catapulted American farming to the forefront of worldwide food production. 4-H has provided leadership in spheres other than agriculture as well. It teaches responsibility, leadership, and other beneficial qualities which have applications far beyond the farm. These lessons are ones which, learned as children, are not outgrown but rather grow with the individual into adulthood. In Rappahannock County, the 4-H program is indeed alive and well, as evidenced by the formation just this month of a new chapter in Washington. A number of county youngsters visited and participated in the State Fair last month in Richmond, as well as the Culpeper-MadisonRappahannock Farm Show in July. The Livestock Club has established a scholarship fund, to which donations are welcome, to assist members in furthering their education at the college level. The 4-H concept has been, and promises to continue to grow as, an important source of skills and knowledge, both practical and aesthetic, for youth all across America.

UNICEF, the United Children’s Fund, is one of the premier child assistance agencies in the world. UNICEF’s effectiveness stems from its ability to mobilize local resources to create a better future for a nation’s children. Other aid organizations often cooperate in the implementation of programs, but UNICEF’s ability to make programs for children a high governmental priority makes it uniquely valuable within the development community. Some people have been confused by the similarity between the acronyms UNICEF and UNESCO, but the two organizations are completely separate. UNICEF is a non-political, international advocate for the needs of children worldwide. UNICEF relies solely upon voluntary contributions from individuals, foundations, corporations and governments, receiving no money from the United Nations. When the Reagan administration withdrew its support of UNESCO, it actually increased its support of UNICEF. In fact, Nancy Reagan is serving as honor ary chairperson of this year’s UNICEF Halloween campaign. At a time when 40,000 children die each day in the developing world - half of them from easily preventable causes - UNICEF offers hope in the form of a child survival and development revolution based on technological and social breakthroughs. UNICEF estimates that the number of child deaths can be cut in half within a decade through mass immunization, promotion of breastfeeding, provision of oral rehydration salts to cure diarrheal dehydration and provision of growth charts. But to reach this goal, UNICEF, and the other international agencies working with UNICEF, need finan cial support. The children of America have responded to the needs of children in developing countries for 36 years by raising funds for UNICEF on Halloween. On the 40th anniversary of UNICEF’s founding, a million of them will do their part again, including numerous children in the Front Royal area. Won’t you open your door and your heart to them and to the impoverished children they represent? A treat for UNICEF is a lifesaver to a needy child. FRONT ROYAL UNITED ^ METHODIST CHURCH MELINDA RUSSELL Front Royal Brer Congress and the Tar Baby (with apologies to uncle Remus) By EUGENE MCCARTHY Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Brer President woke up one morning and he sez to himself, sezee, “Brer Congress is gettin’ tired of watchin’ the deficit rise, and of wrestlin’ with the Budget. I’m gonna distract him by proposin’ he fight with Old Tar Baby, Internal Revenue Code.” Brer President, he set Old Tar Baby, Internal Revenue Code, down beside the road and goes back to his house. Soon Brer Congress calls and sez, “Brer Pres, what can I do for you today?” Brer President sez, sezee, “I’m sure glad you called. I just saw Old Tar Baby Internal Revenue Code sittin’ beside the road just lookin’ for trouble. I suggest you go down there and whip him into shape. Rearrange his features, as they say. But don’t change his over-all size. When you get done, I want him to be revenue neutral.” Since Brer Congress had nothing better to do, he headed down the road, as Brer President had suggested. He hadn’t far to go, for over the first rise in the road he spotted Old Tar Baby, Internal Revenue Code, sitting on a big rock at the side of the road. Old Tar Baby looked satisfied with himself. He was just sitting there with his hands on his stomach. Brer Congress drew up in front of Old Tar Baby, Internal Revenue Code, and he sez to him, “Put up your dukes, ’cause I’m goin’ to whip you into shape.” Old Tar Baby didn’t say anything or make a move. He just stayed where he was. Then Brer Congress drew back his right arm, closed his fist and sez, “I’m goin’ to knock the tax shelters out of you.” And with that he let go with his right hand and hit Old Tar Baby on the left shoulder. Old Tar Baby didn’t flinch. But when Brer Congress went to pull back his right hand, he couldn’t. It was stuck fast to Old Tar Baby Internal Revenue’s left shoulder. Brer Congress sez, “Let me go or I’ll hit you with my left hand and punch out your loopholes.” Old Tar Baby didn’t say anything and Brer Congress hit Old Tar Baby with his left hand, which stuck fast to Old Tar Baby’s right shoulder, same as Brer Congress’s right hand was stuck to Tar Baby’s left shoulder. Brer Congress was getting madder than before, sezee, “If you don’t let go of my hands, I’m goin’ to butt you right in the chest, where you is holdin’ all those tax shelters, and tell the people to have nothin’ to do with you.” Old Tar Baby Internal Revenue Code, he didn’t let go of Brer Congress’s hands, so Brer Congress butted him right in the chest trying to crush those tax shelters. When Brer Congress tried to pull back his head so as to butt Old Tar Baby again, he found that his head was stuck fast to Old Tar Baby’s chest. Brer Congress now could only jump up and down with his two free feet. He sez to Old Tar Baby, “If you don’t let me go, I’m goin’ to kick the home-interest deduction out of you.” And with that he kicked Old Tar Baby with his right foot, which stuck to Old Tar Baby’s left leg. Finally Brer Congress was stuck at four points, with only his left foot free. Sez Brer Congress, “If you don’t let me go, I’m going to kick you where it hurts. I’m going to kick the deduction of state and local income taxes right out of you.” Old Tar Baby Internal Revenue Code didn’t let go of anything, so Brer Congress drew back his left foot and kicked. It stuck to Old Tar Baby’s right shin. Brer Congress pulled and pulled, and tried to hit and butt and kick Old Tar Baby. He threatened and screamed, but to no purpose. Finally near exhaustion, Brer Congress sez to Old Tar Baby, “If you let go of my right hand, I’ll let you keep some tax shelters.” Old Tar Baby let go of Brer Congress’s right hand. Then Brer Congress sez, “If you let go of my left hand I’ll let you keep your favorite loopholes.” So Old Tar Baby, Internal Revenue Code, let go of Brer Congress’s left hand. Now, sez Brer Congress, “If you let go of my head, I won’t try to smash up all your tax shelters by butting you.” Old Tar Baby let go of Brer Congress’s head. Then Brer Congress promised to let Old Tar Baby Income Tax Code keep the deduction of interest on home mortgages, even on second houses (if not homes) and to allow the deduction of state and local income taxes against Federal income tax, and Old Tar Baby let go of both of Brer Congress’s feet. About that time, Brer President comes walking by, and he sez to Brer Congress, “Good work! The income tax code has been changed historically, monumentally, and radically, and it has been reformed, and recodified and remains revenue neutral. The changes will not affect the Federal deficit.” Brer Congress thanked the President and went on down the road, wiping the tar off his various parts, reconciled to the Federal deficit, and resigned to passing a continuing budget resolution rather than approving a new budget. Old Tar Baby, Income Tax Code, just sat there by the side of the road, smiling to himself and not saying anything. Retiree health benefits: the fair weather promise? By SENATOR JOHN WARNER (R-VA) Jack and Barbara were loyal company employees who spent their careers toiling for The Good Company, in good times and bad. When they retired, they counted on The Good Company’s promise to continue providing for their health insurance protection. But one day without warning, Jack and Barbara received a notice from The Good Company that their health insurance was being terminated. This situation describes the reallife uncertainty many company retirees in the U.S. face each day. And, it’s a problem that appears to be worsening. At this point, we have no long-term solution to the lack of protection for retiree health benefits. A few days ago, the Senate Special Committee on Aging, of which I am a member, held a hearing to examine this issue. It was an eye opener for me. Today, seven million retired Americans count on health insurance from a former employer as their only coverage prior to age 65, or as a supplement to Medicare after 65. But a growing number of retirees are finding that such benefits can be a fair weather promise. In the past five years, company bankruptcies have increased over 200 percent and once in bankruptcy, the potential for retirees being suddenly cut off from health coverage is great. With escalating health care costs, higher ratios of retirees to workers in older industries and pressures to reduce labor costs, some companies have started cutting costs by cutting the retiree health benefits they now provide. When an employer closes a plant, declares bankruptcy, or simply amends the plan, retirees suddenly may find themselves without health insurance. Especially vulnerable are those retirees who were forced or willingly took early retirement before becoming eligible for Medicare. They soon discover that buying private health coverage is prohibitively expensive, if even available. Unlike federal laws protecting pensions, there are no such guarantees concerning retiree health benefits. In the absence of statutory protection, the courts have found that retirees have a right to benefits only if the employer explicitly or implicitly promises lifetime benefits to them. If employers clearly and unambiguously reserve the right to cancel health insurance, retirees are not protected. What became clear to me at this hearing is that additional protections are needed to assure the continued delivery of retiree health care benefits. But in doing this, we must not do anything that will encourage employers now voluntarily providing coverage to terminate their plans. The Aging Committee is considering a number of recommendations to better protect company retirees, including a requirement that employers give retiring workers the opportunity to continue in group health coverage by paying a premium equal to the group rate plus administrative costs.

Landfill Continued from page 1 to the town of Washington and private residences, the destruction of scenic vistas and the board’s failure to establish in public objective criteria for selecting a dump site. “Any landfill site will engender opposition,” acknowledged Warrenton attorney Allen Olson, who lives on the Fodderstack Road. “So it has to be a site that is the least of all evils.” The board is not in a position to make that determination of the Lee property, he maintained. Detailed analysis of the Lees’ land and alternate sites has not yet been undertaken, Mr. Olsen pointed out. “The cart essentially has been put before the horse. It would be very premature to judge this site without a full range of scientific data.” Private vs. public Mr. Olson, who was representing himself and a long list of Fodderstack Road landowners opposed to use of the Lee farm as a private landfill, told the supervisors of a recent Supreme Court decision which hold? that a county has limited authority to control the disposal in a private landfill of wastes generated outside the county. In addition, he said, the Lees have no experience or demonstrated ability to operate a landfill. “We’re not talking about professionals . . . We’re talking about people whose livelihood is farming.” Dirty laundry in public The ridge top site of the proposed dump is more visible than any other spot in Rappahannock County, Mike Massie maintained. “You don’t hang dirty laundry in your front yard; you put it in your back yard.” Mr. Dwyer called Route 211 “the gateway to Rappahannock” and pictured “a column of greasy black smoke curling upward” over that gateway from the debris burned at the dump. The actual site is at the edge of the Lee property, not buried in the 120 acre tract, and the buffer zone of trees planned by the Lees will only screen the dump from the rest of their land, Mr. Dwyer wrote. “Our land is our major resource,” said Beverly Massie. As the economy puts more and more farmers out of business in Rappahannock County, they’re turning to real estate sales, she said. The ridge on which the proposed landfill is located is in the middle of one of Rappahannock’s two most spectacular views, Mrs. Massie told the supervisors. { “You’ve got .tp protect our beauty because this is a livelihood for many.” “My life assets are invested here,” said Paul Brown, new resident at Massie’s Comer. It is a gorgeous view that encompasses the Lee property, he said. “And this beautiful woman . . . may have one horrible scar put on her face.” Fodderstack resident Susan Babcock wrote the board that “it would be difficult to find another site with as many opposing landowners.” She asked that the Lee property be rejected as a sanitary landfill, maintaining “there are too many other options available.” The proposed landfill is located in a densely populated area with the nearest residence just 1,500 feet away and others only 2,000 and 2,500 feet distant, Mr. Olsen noted. “This is not a remote section of the county.” And the site’s visibility from Fodderstack Road and Massies Corner will detract both from neighboring land values and from the scenic qualities so critical to the success of Rappahannock’s tourist business, he added. Fodderstack Road Access from “difficult, hilly, curvy” Fodderstack Road will pose a traffic hazard and disturb “the serenity of the county seat” just a mile and a half from the proposed dump, attorney Allen Olson said. “I suggest the supervisors not be so cheap as to cheapen the county seat and an historic district by converting it to an industrial access road to through dump traffic,” said Charles Eldred, Washington resident. The 13 to 15 blind comers or blind summits on Fodderstack “provide a significant hazard,” Lee Bird told the supervisors. “And the proposed entry (to the landfill) is at the most dangerous and biggest blind summit.” If the board requires that access to the proposed dump be from Route 211 rather than the Fodderstack Road, “You’ll get rid of half the opposition,” Robert Eastham advised the supervisors. The Fodderstack Road is only a 40 foot right-of-way, it has no shoulders and the paved portion of the road measures just 18 feet wide, said Susan Lane, whose residence is closest to the proposed dump site. The standard trash truck, when it’s empty, weighs just 500 pounds less than the load limit for the Fodderstack bridge, Sherry Hamill pointed out. In determining that building an access road from Route 211 will be more expensive than providing access from the Fodderstack, has the cost of upgrading that bridge been figured in, she asked. Continued on page 12 October is 100th for stamps October has been designated National Stamp Collecting Month. Mrs. Aline Johnson, Sperryville’s postmaster, said the special observance will focus on the 100th anniversary of organized stamp collecting in the United States. The Postal Service, the Council of Philatelic Organizations and numerous other groups will be cosponsoring this year’s observance. Activities are being planned nationwide that focus on the educational and cultural benefits of stamp collecting. “Stamp collecting still is the world’s most popular hobby,” Sperryville Postmaster Johnson said. “We are encouraging established collectors to share the beauty and history to be found in their collections of U.S. stamps with young collectors. We believe an adult who introduces a youngster to stamp collecting is giving that child an educational activity for their lifetime.” ROYAL PALACE CLEANERS & LAUNDRY East 5th St. & Warren Ave. & BULLOCKS QUALITY CLEANERS & LAUNDRY 19 East Jackson St. .

When Cambysses. the king, learned what had happened he ordered the judge executed. He decreed that the judge's body be skinned and tanned and used to cover the seat where the judges sat in judgement, a grim reminder to them that they should never allow prejudice to affect their verdicts. We shudder at such a method but it does bring into clear focus the awesome responsibility some among us have as they strive to render justice to all. Jesus was clear and plain about judging. Said He: "Judge not that you be not judged. For with the judgement you pronounce you will be judged, and the measure you give will be the measure you get.” (Matt. 7:1,2) He was not speaking of our court system so much as the system of relationships. with one another. He was reminding us that no person is good enough, yea, big enough to judge another in the daily court of public opinion where mercy, not justice, is called for.

Eurythmy performance In conjunction with the VABF meeting, a Eurythmy performance will be offered October 18 at 8 p.m. at the Gay Street Theater, presenting a further extension of Rudolf Steiner’s special genius. The father of biodynamics brought his love of balance and harmony to dance, which in Steiner’s lay was undergoing dramatic ■hanges, entering the first stages of what we now know as modem dance. Steiner developed Eurythmy, a form that those who know it call visible speech, visible poetry, visible music. Unlike many kinds of dance, selfexpression is not the goal of Eurythmy. The dancer is actually the medium for a poem or composition. He or she is interpreting, seeking to become transparent for the beauty of poetry and music. iNeitner atmetics nor emouon is the major influence on Eurythmic dancers. They are trained to find movements arising directly from the work of art, giving the audience a performance uncolored by their own intentions and as true to the original as possible in artistic interpretation. Saturday’s performance, presented by the Washington Eurythmy Group, is a program of major importance for this area. Eurythmy is popular and extensively performed in Europe; it is rare here and even more so outside of a major urban center. The performance is^, failed Eurythmy, Music and the Fairy Tale.

You need extra bedrooms. The kitchen has to be enlarged or updated, it’s about time you had a garage large enough to handle your cars. It’s strange how homes seem to shrink in size as families increase in number and children grow from toddlers to teenagers. The next obvious question is—should you add on a dormer, a new bedroom, garage or renovate your kitchen—or should you sell your present home and buy one that fits your family’s needs? Advice: get estimates from contractors (then for safety’s sake increase the cost and time estimate by 50%). Don’t forget to crank in the stress factor that goes with remodeling. With this information in hand, our office will be happy to sit down with you and discuss the value of your present home and show you a range of new and existing homes for sale which are already in move-in condition to fit your family’s needs. Remember—renovating a home does not always increase its resale value.

Photo courtesy of H. W. Holschuh MARION SIMPSON, a member of Literacy Volunteers of America, is teaching Lyle Foster to read through the adult literacy program. A dream come true By H. W. HOLSGHUH Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Dreams are coming true in Rappahannock County. . .for Lyle Foster and others enrolled in the adult reading program. All his life, Mr. Foster has dreamed of learning how to read and write. When he was a tiny tot, his father died and he and an older sister went to live with their grandparents in Flint Hill. Apples needed to be picked and farm chores beckoned for the growing boy, so there was little time for school in those days. Of course, he learned all the farm routines, including the relationships between pints, quarts, pecks and bushels. He knew how much grain the miller kept as his “toll” for grinding the crop. He recognized the road signs and got his driver’s license in 1941, after passing the state exam verbally. He learned how to raise a family and to cook and keep house after his wife died and even how to put up garden produce for himself. But he never learned how to read, until now. Marion Simpson of Slate Mills, a member of Literacy Volunteers of America, has been tutoring Mr. Foster several days a week at the Rappahannock Nutrition Site (now meeting at the Washington Baptist Church, at noon) and she is delighted with his progress. “He has a good memory and really wants to learn,” Mrs. Simpson said. Mrs. Simpson follows the Lauback Way of Reading, a system developed to train adults to read.

Mr. Foster, now 74, also brings his Bible and a hymn book to the tutoring sessions and is now able to read the Bible verses and hymns he memorized so long ago. Mr. Foster has learned to sign his own checks and looks forward to the day when he can write letters to each of his six children, now living throughout the Northern Virginia area.

Amissville 4-H growing By JOHN W. MALLORY AmiMville 4-H Member The Ami88ville 4-H club is a new one. We are small in number, but we hope to grow larger and stronger. Meetings are held on the last Thursday of every month. We will elect officers at our next meeting. Anyone interested in joining may come to the Amiss ville United Methodist Church at 7 p.m. on October 30. Each month there is a different project to do. One of the things we did was to make a hot house from a soda bottle and plant seeds in it. We also planted seedlings to start our own garden and we made mushroom decorations and other interesting projects are planned. We also helped to sell hot dogs and drinks at the Co-op anniversary celebration. We plan to take trips to the stock sales, 4-H center and other places of interest. Also, our club had a nice turn out for the 4-H day camp this summer. After attending this we were inspired to do more in our club. We are going to make something special this month. All we have been told is that it will be fun. Remember the Amissville 4-H club meets on the last Thursday of the month. 4-H is open to youths 919 years old. Parents are also welcome to come. We need your help, too. For more information contact Jennifer Gray at 937-5092 or the Extension office at 675-3619. 4-H otters lots ot activities By ELIZABETH OLIVER 4-H Livestock Club 4-H offers many activities to a wide variety of people. For example, I had two major projects this past year. Last spring, I participated in a dress revue. This summer I entered a steer and homemaking exhibits in the Culpeper-Madison-Rappahannock County Farm Show in Culpeper. As a member of a 4-H Livestock Judging Team I went on three field trips to participate in contests at Brandy Station, Front Royal and the Virginia State Fair. This summer I attended Intermediate Congress at the 4-H Center in Front Royal. 4-H members aged 12 to 15 from counties all over the state were sent as delegates. I met people there that I have since seen at other state-wide 4-H functions. Leadership skills were learned as a counselor at the County Day-Camp held in July and at 4-H Junior Camp held in August. 4-H Club work offers a variety of opportunities for both leadership and learning. Project areas are not limited to domestic or livestock areas. If you are interested in wildlife, electricity, public speaking, forestry, or almost any field of study, 4H has something to offer you. The number of projects available to a member of a 4-H club is large. If you are interested in a 4-H club membership, call the Rappahannock County Extension Office at 6753619. Lambs competed in show By MICHAEL BROWN 4-H Livestock Club Member I raised two lambs for my livestock project. My lambs weighed 42 and 44 pounds at the beginning of the project and at the end they weighed 100 and 115 pounds. One of my lambs went to the carcass contest and one was a market lamb. I had my lambs for about three months. I sold them at the farm show. Ed. note: Michael Brown, 11, was awarded a silver platter for Reserve Grand Champion in the performance carcass class at the farm show. Proclamation of 4-HWeek I am pleased to extend warm greetings and congratulations to everyone celebrating the 1986 National 4-H Week. A century and a half ago, a Frenchman named Alexis de Tocqueville came to America looking for the secret of our greatness. What he found was a spirit that still flourishes today. The secret was, and is, in our people’s enthusiasm for learning, sharing, volunteering, caring, and helping their neighbors. Apply that spirit to education for youth in agriculture, family living, and community development and you have the essence of 4-H. I salute the members of 4-H, more than four million strong. On your young shoulders rests important responsibility for our nation’s future. I also commend 4-H volunteer leaders who number more than 600,000. Their generous gift of time and talent helps vitally to involve young people in our communities. Nancy joins me in sending you our best wishes during 1986 National 4-H Week, and for every future success. God bless you. Ronald Reagan President 4-H develops strong youth The 4-H program of the Cooperative Extension system provides ed-' ucational opportunities for nearly 4.5 million youth. They live in both urban and rural areas and represent all social, ethnic and economic backgrounds. One of the greatest strengths of 4-H is the diversity which enables it to address the needs of youth. Through 4-H young people develop the leadership, initiative and responsibility they will need to function as citizens in a democratic society. The 4-H emphasis on development of people through practical teaching is needed more than ever today; in the future, that need will grow throughout rural America, in rural non-farm America and in urban America. 4-H is the only youth program which has direct access to the knowledge, theory and research - all of the advances - of the land-grant university system. 4-H continues to teach the newest methods of agriculture to rural youth. Yet, as ours has become more and more an urban nation, 4-H has reached out to meet needs as they evolve in the changing environment. Today, 4-H is challenging new generations of youth with programs in consumer education, computer science, engineering, energy, nutrition, marine science and space technology, as well as with contemporary programming in such traditional areas as plant and soil science, veterinary science, commodity marketing, conservation and production agriculture. Extension is exploring new ways to deliver 4-H experiences using the latest in educational, electronic and technological advances. 4-H builds better citizens, teaching values and developing skills necessary to lead a good and profitable life. 4-H is anchored firmly in basic fundamental values of human worth and individual dignity that form the foundation of our democratic government and our system of private enterprise. The learn-by-doing methods of 4H result not only in development of practical skills but also in development of sound judgment, a sense of responsibility, individual initiative and style of leadership. The 4-H experience, in which youth participate with substantial autonomy, creates changes that make a difference in life. 4-H concentrates on developing the individual, strengthening the family and improving the community 4-H camper learns to lead By ALEX SMITH 4-H Teen Leader I have been a 4-H’er for five years now and am still going as strong, if not stronger than ever. 4H has treated me great, and I can only try to treat it as well. I live in the county and don’t have many friends during the summer, but 4-H has changed that beyond belief. I can still remember my first time there at camp. I was all alone — no one to relate to — but the other 4H’ers accepted me just like I was one of the gang, and the more I went the more fun I had. I was always involved in something, and didn’t have a minute to become bored. Now that I’ve become a teen leader I have realized what a challenge it is to take care of several children. I’ve always looked up to teen leaders, and now it’s hard to live up to being looked up to. The staff does a wonderful job organizing, and the kids have a lot of good clean fun. I just hope I have as many years of 4H fun ahead of me as I have behind me. Washington forms 4-H Club By HAZEL ZINN-DAY 4-H Club Leader The Washington 4-H Club held its first meeting on September 24th at the Trinity Episcopal Church in Washington. We hope to have a much stronger turn out at our October meeting. At that time we will plan our activities for the upcoming year. Some of the activities will include: a Halloween party, a Christmas party and singing of Christmas carols at the Baptist Home. In January we will be working on Share the Fun and planning a Valentine’s party. Also, we will be working on entries for the Farm show and other projects throughout the year. We have a lot of exciting projects planned and we hope to have a good turnout of parents and 4-H’ers at our next meeting so we can get started on a year full of learning and fun! producing responsible, communityminded, concerned and competent adults. 4-H is filling a vital role of instilling in the minds of youth an appreciation for the importance of food and fiber production, marketing and consumption and how it impacts on each of our lives on a daily basis. 4-H helps young people improve their self image, make wise decisions, set realistic goals and document their experiences leading toward accomplishments of these goals. The land-grant university base for 4-H makes possible exploration of new, 4-H experiences using the latest in educational, electronic and technological advances. Prevention of inappropriate behavior can be achieved through the very kind of pro-social environment 4-H seeks to provide. The 4-H experience, indeed. leaves a lasting impression on its members, producing responsible, community-minded, concerned adults whose positive impact on our country and the world is immeasurable. All major studies relating to problems of children and youth confirm that 4-H is right on target with its philosophy of developing the child or individual, strengthening the family and improving the community. It is a philosophy that has remained unchanged through the years and withstood the test of time - a philosophy as sound for tomorrow as it is for today or was for yesterday. “I found that through U-HI could learn to discipline myself. I knew that there was a blue ribbon or a red ribbon waiting for me if I did the job. And, of course, the harder I worked the greater the rewards were.” Johnny Bench, the Cincinnati Reds.

4-H thrives on strong base From its beginnings, 4-H has thrived because of the synergistic effort of its broad based support: funding from the federal, state and county governments; educational expertise from the land-grant university system; funding from corporations, businesses, foundations and individuals; time and talent from volunteers, alumni and 4-H members themselves. To weaken or discontinue any part of this support would be folly. The whole is far greater than, its parts - but every part is essential for success. Public funding is essential to 4-H and Cooperative Extension Service to provide the strong network of professional guidance in every county for the nation and to provide the professional leadership essential to continuity and progress. States and counties will be financially unable to shoulder the full costs of Cooperative Extension work if federal funding is cut, even if they are willing, because of similar budget cuts projected for other federalstate assistance programs. A gradual but terminal dismantling of a recognized and effective system will take place. This will have impacts far beyond the immediate elimination of many programs. At a time ,uhen funds for services are also being reduced, the need for such a federalist organization will be even greater. Private funding for 4-H remains strong and is growing steadily. This is because corporate executives, businessmen, foundation officials and others are sold on what 4-H does for kids. They consider 4-H a sound investment for the future of the private enterprise system and for the future of our democratic way of life. They know that the private-public partnership supporting 4-H is one of the most cost-effective in the nation - and moreover, it works! The success of 4-H as a dynamic program strongly influencing the future of the nation depends on this delicate partnership - the meshing of human and financial resources from the major corporations of America with the spirit and energies of a half million volunteers and 4.5 million 4-H members together with the professional guidance and knowledge base of the land-grant university system and U.S. Department of Agriculture. The private sector today donates approximately $40 million annually to support 4-H at the national, state and local levels. Through National 4H Council, some 1,800 corporations, foundations and organizations contribute funds that provide essential elements of motivation, incentives and training for both youth and volunteers. The volunteer corps of 4-H - some 600,000 strong - is its real backbone and basic to the cost-effective delivery of practical education experiences. For every hour spent by a professional Extension worker in 4-H, volunteers donate 10 hours of time. By conservative estimate, volunteers nationwide contribute some $1 billion annually in time, travel and support - far in excess of the total combined public and private dollars directly invested in 4-H. Volunteers not only give leadership to 4-H experiences for youth, they also keep the program relevant to local community needs and interest. While most volunteers serve in teaching roles, an increasing number are assuming broadened roles in middle management, service on boards and committees, as coordinators of events and in helping broaden the funding base for 4-H. The contributions of volunteers to 4-H is tremendous; however, 4-H does reciprocate. Volunteers receive the latest information, develop their own leadership skills and experience personal growth. During the process of helping youth develop, adults find themselves growing in their own areas of self-fulfillment. 4-H is truly a people development program. The 45 million 4-H alumni form an important and invaluable support base to 4-H and Extension. Recent surveys of 4-H alumni have resulted in a flood of comments crediting the 4-H experience with having a strong influence on successful careers, achieving personal goals, strengthening family and community commitment and enhancing the quality Rappahannock News file photo “I LIKE BEING IN 4-H because I like my lambs,” said Rob Reeve. “Later I can save up money for college from selling them. I liked being in the greased pig contest,” Rob’s sister Alice added. “The 4-H Club is a learning experience for people of all ages. I enjoy it a lot. It not only helps me learn about animals but it is teaching me responsibility, and I have fun learning.” 4-H a part of Extension The Cooperative Extension Service System was established by the Smith-Lever Act in 1914 literally to extend the research and knowledge base from the laboratories of the land-grant universities and the U.S. Department of Agriculture to the laboratories of real life where people live and work. Today, this system is the envy of the world, sue 4-H shooting program BY JAN PALMER 4-H Leader Four Rappahannock County adults have just returned from an informative and fun weekend learning about the 4-H Shooting Sports program at the Northern Virginia 4-H Educational Center - and we are excited. The 4-H Shooting Sports program is for all youth 9 to 19 years of age, their parents and any adult with an interest in young people and the shooting sports. The program includes disciplines in rifle, shotgun, pistol, black powder, hunting and archery. Club members are taught the basic knowledge of how to operate a firearm safely and respect and responsibility in handling firearms. They learn the importance of the care and maintenance of firearms. They will be helped to understand wildlife conservation, landowner/hunter responsibilities, game laws, different types of game and techniques of hunting. If you would like to know more, or are interested in becoming part of 4-H Shooting Sports Club in Rappahannock County, contact the Extension Office at 675-3619 or Jan Palmer at 937-5260. We are certified to offer the rifle and shotgun disciplines at this time. cessfully delivering a vital dimension of the nation’s public education responsibility. The land-grant university base places the Cooperative Extension Service in a position to serve the ever changing needs of youth and adults through practical, real-life educational experiences supported by all facets of the university and adapted to age-oriented everyday use. ‘%-H — That’s where I first learned about growing com crops and running a business, too. I joined a k-H club in 1918. Then and now, b-H has helped youngsters learn important skills and set life goals.” Orville Redenbacher, Businessman. Volunteers! BY SANDRA RICHARDSON Extension Agent 4-H has been a strong force for the young people around the world for many years. Volunteers play an important role in the 4-H program. They so willingly give of their time, their energy, their money and their love and encouragement to 4H’ers. It seems only fitting that as we salute 4-H, we pause to say thank you to the many volunteers who are involved to make 4-H what ' it has grown to be today. There are never too many volunteers because each person has something unique to share with 4-H. Volunteers, we appreciate you! J Entering the state fair BY AMY RICHARDSON 4-H Leader It’s hard to decide whether or not to enter the State Fair. When you get the book it is exciting to see the many things you can do. You have to narrow it down to what you are going to enter. You fill out the paper and send it in. The work begins! Then you decide what things can be done ahead of time. If you have free time, it is taken up by getting ready for the Fair. It’s a time to work hard until it is time to turn everything in. Everything that is not perishable foods is turned in before the Fair starts. The baked items are turned in the day after the Fair starts. Some of these items are breads, cakes, candies and pies. The door of the Youth Building closes at 10 a.m. so that the judges can begin their work. During the judging, it seems like it takes forever even though it only takes three hours. When you find out what you get, it’s very exciting. Congratulations 4-H,ers! COUNTRY HERITAGE Antiques & Crafts Guest Rooms Washington, Va. Nan 6?

Landfill Continued from page 5 “Gentlemen, have you seen what a 10 ton garbage truck looks like?" asked another opponent. “Imagine that next to a car on an 18 foot road . . . At 55 miles per hour, you’re going to turn Fodderstack Road into a death trap.” Dumpsters Whether the Lee property or some other land is used for a landfill, the idea that the dumpsters should be removed “is a very dangerous suggestion,” Allen Olson maintained. No matter where the landfill is located, it will always be some distance from a significant number of county residents. Those people should be given the option of using dumpsters, he argued. “The dumpsters keep our roads relatively free of trash ... A landfill is not a substitute for dumpsters. It's needed in addition to dumpsters. ” Residents of Chester Gap and Amissville have already announced that they’ll toss their trash on the road sides if dumpsters are removed and the only disposal site is outside Washington, Susan Lane reported. If the dumpsters are removed, she said, responsibility for policing the area and the roads will fall on the landfill operator, according to the resident highway engineer. “I don’t think it will be done,” Mrs. Lane said. Environmental threat Washington towm attorney Frank Reynolds read a letter from “Unless they can make water run up hill,” the landfill, which is proposed to be built “on the side of a mountain," will indeed drain into that creek, wrote Jack Dwyer. Empty containers which once held hazardous agricultural and horticultural chemicals are generally rinsed out three times and then thrown in the dump, said Phil Irwin, Flint Hill resident and president of the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection. That standard practice turns a landfill into “a ticking time bomb full of all kinds of environmental problems . . . You must find the most suitable site for this ticking time bomb, not the most economical,” he told the supervisors. “That should be your top priority.” Procedures ignored Joyce Abell maintained that the board was making a mistake in only attacking one site at a time. “That’s going to take you forever,” she said, suggesting that Mr. Forman study the alternatives as well as the Lee property and that several sites be evaluated simultaneously. “I’m afraid I’m becoming cynical as to how this board chooses a potential landfill site,” Mrs. Abell continued. A chief consideration is whether it will be cheap for the county, she said, calling the supervisors “penny wise and pound foolish” for looking at short term expenses. “You have to consider property which may cost the taxpayers more money initially but will, over the years, provide the county with a better landfill site.” John Preston, one of the organizfMtiyAnq ornnn mission, he said. Where were you? While the landfill opponents directed their attack at the Board of Supervisors, David Konick turned his on the crowd. “It all depends on whose ox is getting gored,” said Mr. Konick, who represented landowners adjacent to the existing private county landfill in their battle to prevent that site from being further expanded. “This landfill business has been going on since 1977, at least,” he said, adding that most of the objections raised against the Lee’s farm as a landfill site applied as well to the dump now operating on the Clark property. “Where were you then?” he asked the audience. “Where was this mass of people? . . . You all know and have known when the extension (of one year) was granted for the WoodviUe landfill and we obtained assurances from the county that it would be moved from the Clark tract (by July 1, 1987). You knew the supervisors were actively undertaking a search for another spot. Why weren’t you here then, asking how it was going? I was, and I felt like the lone voice in the wilderness . . . The citizens sat back and watched because their ox wasn’t being gored ... If you think the decision making by this board is irresponsible, it’s nobody’s fault but yours because you didn’t stand up and say beans when somebody else was being taken to the cleaners,” Mr. Konick said. “As long as the landfill wasn’t in your backyard, it was fine ” Sport Panthers win again Rappahannock County High School’s cross-country team had a great day last Wednesday, dominating a tri-meet held on their home course against Page County and Brentsville. The boys team tore up the difficult, hilly trails to stun the visiting teams by a wide margin. Marley Hay paced the Panther harriers, lapping several slower runners in the homestretch to put himself and runner-up John Watson more than a mile ahead of the last runners, Hay blazed his way around the 2.8 mile course in 18:04, followed closely by Watson in 18:49. The third place runner, Jay Martin from Brentsville, finished nearly a minute behind Watson in 19:35. Neil Burke placed third for the Panthers, fifth overall (20:11), followed by John Dodson (8th, 21:11); Dan Herman (13th, 22:02); Matt Eidson (running unofficially - 14th, 22:22); Tom Taylor (15th, 22:26); Greg Daczewitz (16th, 22:43); Jay Burke (18th, 23:49); Rodney Grimsley (19th, 24:30); and Chris Moyles (20th, 24:45). Coach Ann Spieker reported that “even in the extreme heat many of the boys knocked several seconds off their times.” Rappahannock News photos/Lou Hatter A PACK OF RUNNERS start the race last Wednesday which pitted Rappahannock against Page and Brentsville.

School Students attend summer gifted/talented programs By DEBORAH FLINCHUM Rappahannock News Special Writer Rappahannock Elementary School and Rappahannock High School gifted/talented students in grades four through 12 had opportunities to attend six programs offered through local colleges this summer. Most of the tuition and transportation costs were covered by the gifted/talented fund of the Rappahannnock County School system. The Lord Fairfax Summer Youth Enrichment Program included four courses for students to choose from. Will Adams, Jan Herman, Patrick O’Meara, Alice Reeve, Matthew Eidson, and Sherry Burke attended “Phun With Physics.” Shannon Eastham, Karen Moore, Rachel Combs, Kelly Lawler, Camilla Jones, and Michael Shotton selected “Introduction to Basic Programming.” Denice Eidson and Laura Horton chose “Basic Photography.” Melanie Moffett and James Stone participated in “Creative Wirting for Young People.” Jan Herman told about her course. They rode over on a bus each day of the one week program. “We learned what Physics was (I was in the physics course). We made a lot of things that showed different things about nhvsics.” She thought thp host other schools’ music departments.” Five students spent two weeks at UVA in the Enrichment Program. They were Kenneth Giles, Chris Moyles, Bryan Clark, Patrick O’Meara, and Keith Switzer. The students had to apply for acceptance to the program. Keith Switzer selected Computer Programming and Arts and Humanities while there. He worked mainly on Logo in their computer class and made books of creative writing in the humanities class. He attended seminars on special topics. As a project, he did research on a topic, learned the material, and then taught others about it. “I wrote and directed a play called Freddy Frog and His Surprise Party. I think by going now I won’t get so homesick when I do go to college.” Keith enjoyed meeting new friends. He said the only bad thing was the food. UVA was also the setting for the Young Writers Workshop. Doretha Butler and Heather Kilpatrick applied and were accepted to participate. Heather thought that the classes themselves were very interesting. During her two week stay she was involved in a short story and fiction class in the morning and a radio show in the afternoon. The main ob _ Deborah Flinchum for the Rappahannock News MRS. BETTY WOOD’S second year Home Economics class at Rappahannock County High School participated in an apple pie baking contest recently. A class-wide competition was held, then the best 12 pies were judged in the final contest. First place was awarded to Melissa Payne (left), Sandy Jenkins (center) took second prize, and Darlene Dodson placed third. Melissa went on to represent Rappahannock in the apple pie baking contest held at the 12th annual Apple Harvest Arts and Crafts Festival in Winchester September 20 and 21. Mrs. Wood said that the contest built her students’ enthusiasm and their culinary skills. National School lunch week The Rappahannock County School District participates in the National School Lunch Program, which since 1946 has made it possible for schools throughout the nation to serve wholesome and nutritious low-cost lunches to students every school day. These lunches make an important contribution to good nutrition, which is vital to children’s mental and physical growth. National School Lunch Week, October 12-18, is a time dedicated to increasing the community awareness and understanding of the National School Lunch Program. The Honorable Gerald L. Baliles has officially recognized this week as Virginia School Lunch Week. ‘College Day’ Lord Fairfax Community College in Middletown will hold its annual College Day Program Wednesday, October 15 from 11:451:00 p.m. All current or former students of the college are invited to meet with the representatives of more than 40 colleges and universities. Bridgewater College, Eastern Mennonite College, James Madison University, Old Dominion University, University of Virginia, William & Mary College and Virginia Polytechnic and State University will be among the colleges and universities represented. The Virginia School Food Service Association will celebrate with a special menu (Virginia: Mother of Presidents/Salute to our Native Sons) to be served on Friday, October 17, featuring several crops produced in Virginia. Our “We have it made in Virginia” menu will be: Washington/Jefferson, hot dog on bun, Harrison, green beans, Tyler, chilled fruit cup, Taylor, applesauce square, Wilson, choice of milk. Throughout Virginia, school lunch cafeterias will promote special activities encouraging student involvement, invite special guests to lunch and generally have a festive National School Lunch Week.

Rappahannock Journal • Farm • Business • Garden • Rural life Acorn poisoning: A serious risk A bumper crop of Virginia acorns is causing trouble for the state’s livestock producers, but is sure to help wildlife populations and, ultimately, Virginia game hunters, Virginia Tech Extension specialists reported. “We’ve already had several head of cattle to die from acorn poisoning in Bedford County,” said H. John Gerken, Extension animal scientist. "Producers should take extra precautions to prevent their livestock from eating'these nuts.” While cattle are most often involved, sheep and goats also can sicken and die from eating the fruit of the oak tree. Acorns contain tannic acid, a toxin which causes severe damage to the kidneys and liver. Acorn poisoning usually occurs in the fall when the nuts have dropped to the ground and are consumed by livestock on pasture or by animals who have access to wooded areas. “There seems to be a wide variation of acorn toxicity in a given area,” Mr. Gerken said. Changes in climatic conditions, habitat and nutrition of susceptible animals may influence the incidence of poisoning. An exceptionally large acorn crop is being reported throughout most of the state this year. William A. McElfresh, Extension forestry specialist, attributed the increase to “a combination of good years and the right weather conditions.” The extreme drought that much of the state experienced in 1986 also had some effect. “Anytime a tree is heavily-stressed, it begins to produce a good seed crop,” Mr. McElfresh explained. “The scattered August rains also helped give the acorns some good size at the last minute.” While the overabundance of acorns is creating problems for livestock producers, it will actually benefit Virginia’s wild game hunters. “Deer, turkey and squirrels will have plenty to eat this winter,” the forestry expert said. "The Virginia Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries is already predicting a particularly good year for wildlife next year.” In the meantime, however, livestock producers should keep a close watch on their animals. Symptoms of acorn poisoning include loss of appetite, listlessness, weakness, bowing up in the back, bloody urine, dehydration, yellow color and constipation during early illness followed by a diarrhea that may be dark colored or bloody. Affected animals get weaker and eventually go down. “There are no specific treatments for the condition, other than rumen stimulants, such as mineral oil and fluids for the dehyrdration,” said Mr. Gerken. Treatment of animals once they go down is rarely successful, while early treatment of cases is helpful. A preventive ration of 10 to 5 percent calcium hydroxide mixed with grain may be of some benefit if cattle cannot be separated from the oak trees. Mr. Gerken recommends about four pounds of this mix per day per cow and two pounds per day for younger animals. “This may be difficult to accomplish on some farms because the cattle will eat acorns instead of the feed,” warned the Tech specialist. If possible, producers should remove cattle from pastures or wooded areas containing acorn-producing oak trees. According to Mr. McElfresh, acorns from trees belonging to the red oak family are usually the highest in acid content. This includes red, southern, black, northern and scarlet oak. “Acorns from white oaks, post oaks or chestnut oaks are sweeter and lower in acid content,” he said.

Rappahannock has Strange West Point connection Rappahannock County now boasts a Strange West Point connection — as in Phillip Strange; as in West Point, New York, home of the United States Military Academy, not West Point on Virginia’s Northern Neck. The Castleton woodworker and cabinet maker recently hauled a crew of Rappahannock carpenters and a room’s worth of oak paneling to the military academy on the Hudson River. The paneling went up in the Admissions Center lounge, the room where prospective cadets are introduced to West Point. Strange landed the job, a traditional restoration reminiscent of the early 1900s, through Evelyn Willis. Now a Washington resident, Mrs. Willis is an interior decorator who began her career at West Point where her husband was a professor of physics. Impressed by examples of Strange’s cabinetry work she’d seen in Rappahannock homes, she hired him for the Admissions Center lounge project and also commissioned a paneled alcove and paneled podium for the Thayer Award Room at West Point. The Strange crew — Philip, Brett Taylor, Tucker Clark Sr. and his three sons, Allen, Daryl and Tuck Jr. — arrived on a Monday with the assembled oak paneling and departed on Friday, leaving behind two paneled offices and a paneled lounge. According to Mrs. Willis, the country visitors had only one problem. Brett Taylor reported that after two full days at The Point, he hadn’t seen a single face break into a smile. ASCS amends committees The Food and Security Act of 19K5 amended certain provisions of law concerning the election of Community and County ASC Committees, according to officials of the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service. All counties have been divided into three local administrative areas. Community committeemen will be elected for a staggered 3-year term with an election of community committeemen being conducted in one of the local administrative areas each year. In order to convert to the new procedure, this year it will be necessary to elect community committeemen for a 1-year, 2-year and 3-year term respectively among the three local administrative areas. Farmers will soon be mailed nominating petition forms and asked to nominate candidates of their choice to be on the ASC community committee ballots, ASCS officials reported.

Conference set on bio-dynamic farms Six northern Virginia farms in Rappahannock and Warren counties, whose owners use no toxic pesticides or herbicides and who practice farming methods which do not deplete the soil, will be open to visitors Sunday, October 19th. The farm tours will be the second part of a two day meeting co-sponsored by the Virginia Association of Biological Farmers (VABF) and the Bio-Dynamic Association of the United States. The VABF is an organization of farmers, gardeners and consumers interested in sustainable agriculture. The Bio-Dynamic Farming and Gardening Association first developed from the teachings of Rudolph Steiner, an Austrian philosopher of the early 1900’s. On the first day of the two day meeting, to be held at the Rappahannock Elementary School, near Washington, three speakers from the Bio-Dynamic Association will speak on three aspects of Bio-Dynamic Farming. Trauger Groh, biodynamic farmer and planner of the Bushberghof farm and community in Germany, will talk on the social and economic aspects of bio-dynamic farming. Rod Shouldice, administrator of the group, will tell about the conversion from conventional or organic farming to bio-dynamic farming. Hugh Courtney will talk on bio-dynamic preparations and experiments. Among the farms on tour will be \ the apple orchard of the late A. P. * Thomson, near Bayard, now being I managed by his widow; Tabard I Farm, a two acre market garden ' growing for D.C. restaurants near * Middletown; Jordan River Farm, a ; 470 acre diversified organic farm * near Flint Hill; Horseshoe Hollow • Farm, near Washington, producing ! organically raised baby beef; Thistle Hill, a 20 acre organic farm designed ; for intensive production and minimal labor; and Blackwater Homestead, a unique homestead that employs many bio-dynamic principles. The eventful day will be capped by a performance by the Washington Eurythmy Group at 8:00 p.m. at the Gay Street Theatre in Washington. As a performing art, Eurythmy has been described as a moving expression of music, speech and drama. Eurythmy, as well as bio-dynamic farming grew from the teachings of Rudolph Steiner. For a complete program and reserved tickets for lunch and the Eurythmy performance, write VABF, Box 252, Flint Hill, Virginia 22627. Lunch tickets for the meeting are $4. A pot-luck dinner will be served at 6:00 p.m., courtesy VABF. Tickets for the Eurythmy performance are $5, $6 at the door. Reservations are suggested, as it is promised to be a sell-out. October garden notes By BIRGITT THORNHILL Extension Agent • If the weather stays dry enough before the ground freezes, you can plow. Fall plowing allows earlier planting in the spring and is especially good for heavy soils since they are exposed to the freezing and thawing of action of winter. This will help improve your soil’s structure. • Remove any diseased or insectinfested plant material from your garden; it may harbor overwintering stages of disease and insect pests. If you leave this plant material in your garden, you are leaving diseases and insects which will begin to reproduce again next spring and add to next year’s pest problem. • A plant or two of parsley taken from the garden and potted up will do well all winter if watered and set in a sunny window. Chives, sage and thyme can also be maintained in this manner. • If your climbing roses are in an exposed location, tie them up firmly with broad strips of rags so that the wind will not whip them against the trellis and bruise the bark. • Fall is an excellent time for taking soil samples in your lawn and garden. Soil tests will measure the acidity or alkalinity of the soil and the levels of some of the nuqor elements required for plant growth; phosphorus and potassium. Where lime is needed, now is a good time to apply it. • In preparing flower beds which will be planted next spring, do not use quick-acting fertilizers. Nutri- * ents will be leached away before * spring comes. ' • Surround the trunks of fruit £ trees with hardware cloth or similar * wire and bury the edges in the ; ground to prevent rodents from chewing on them. 1 • Pick bagworms from evergreen ! shrubs. This will eliminate the over- * wintering females who would lay ; eggs next spring. ; • To protect young trees against * deer damage, there are a number of * deterrents you can try. Remember, - deer will become accustomed to any Z object, so alternating items will .; help. Hang bars of soap, mesh bags ' filled with human hair, bags of dried blood or strips of white plastic trash - or freezer bags on trees that are - likely to be attacked. Chemical deer Z repellents can also be used. Be sure * to reapply any chemicals after 2 to 3 ; weeks of normal weathering. * • A final weeding of strawberries, * blueberries, or raspberries will help l keep weed problems down to a mini- J; mum. Obtain mulch for covering strawberries for November. Apply mulch after the ground has frozen. • A ripe apple placed in a closed container with green tomatoes will encourage the tomatoes to turn red. Ripe apples give off ethylene gas which will cause tomatoes to ripen. Call 675-3349 to place your ad f t ,! £ ,f r AA.A.AA'Af,f' *1* New 1987 Cadillacs Are In And Ready For Deliveiy!

BELLYGRAMS - The perfect surprise for home or office parties by professional Bellydancer. 703/8253974. In memory of Lyle Rector, who departed this life two months ago. This poem was written by a member of the Chester Gap Baptist Church choir, of which he was a member also! We have seen another brother, Cross onto that golden shore. He has parted from us here on earth We'll see his face no more. He brought such joy, into our hearts, When he was with us here. Our lives will never be the same,, Because he won’t be near. Our hearts they feel so saddened That he is gone from this green earth. But we feel so much better knowing, This is just his spiritual birth. He's gone on to be in glory, With our Father up above. Well never forget his presence here, And always remember him with love. It is difficult to understand, When we're feeling so much pain, Why at this time, he left us, And well never see him again. But each of us, as Christians, know, Within our hearts so deep, There's no reason for sorrow at all, For brother Lyle is at God's feet. He’s living in the glory land, With the loved ones gone before. Someday well be with him again, Where parting and sorrow are no more. There will be no more weeping, No more doubts and no more fears, His soul will forever be with Jesus, Forever more throughout the years. ( loo.

Landfill Continued from page 12 dents should be willing to pay “10, 15, maybe even 20 more cents on the tax rate to handle this problem satisfactorily,” he said, reporting that hauling costs will run $2.65 per loaded mile and tipping fees from $14 to $35 per ton. But a landfill, he added, will cost around $250,000. If Rappahannock must have its own landfill, “keep it short term, as short term as you can. Then when the time comes that you can get the trash out of the county, bite the bullet and raise taxes,” Mr. Price advised. “I don’t think the need for a landfill will disappear with advancing technology,” countered Mr. McCarthy, adding that, at the very least, ash from the resource recovery facility would have to be disposed of in a dump. Public process But no matter how short term the landfill is, a site should be selected only after the Board of Supervisors publicly establishes criteria, Mr. Reynolds argued. For instance, he said, if the board decides that access to a landfill must be from a primary road, then basically 95 percent of Rappahannock County would be eliminated from consideration. Other criteria, such as slopes and proximity to residential development, would narrow the choices even further. “Then you take a map and say ‘This is the area in which we will consider a landfill site.’ ” Mr. Reynolds continued. “After that, you apply geological and hydrological criteria, and you’ve narrowed it down to 5,000 acres, or less.” To this point, the site selectipn process has been conducted in public, the attorney pointed out. “Now you deal privately with landowners ...The people in the area you’ve picked will be upset, but as long as you’ve done everything in a public way, you’ll be in a whole lot better position to win if someone takes you to court,” he told the supervisors. “I know you’re in a tight spot,” Brambles Cafe y Now open under ► new management \ Monday - Wednesday j ^ 8 a.m.-3:30 p.m. i L Thursday - Sunday < F 8 a.m.-8 p.m. j l Lunch Specials < Only I $2.75 I includes 2 veg. & drink < " i Breakfast -Lunch - < Dinner Specials < Carry out available • on all orders 703-675-3490 9 9 9 £NUGGETS OF TRUTHi 9 By REV.

But going through the process he outlined, “you have a lot better chance of getting something done in a hurry." Striker tract on Route 637? Again and again, opponents of the Lee site asked about alternatives, particularly the 80 acre Striker tract near Amissville reportedly available for $1,000 per acre. The owners of the land have never contacted the board. Chairman Hubert Gilkey reported. “It’s hearsav onlv.” J. Newbill Miller, whose Hampton District includes the Lee property, reported that he has tried to contact the owner of the Striker tract but without success. He suggested that the possibility of acquiring that land be investigated. Agreeing to the postponement, the board also asked for recommendations of citizens to serve on a special solid waste disposal advisory committee to be composed of two members from each magisterial district. Suggestions are to be given to Clerk Diane Bruce by this Thursday. Earlier in the meeting; Supervisors Nelson Lane and Dick Latham acknowledged that they had not been to the proposed dump site. (Supervisors Miller, Gilkey and Charles Estes accompanied Mr. Forman and a consulting engineer on the “walk through” evaluation of September 23.) “I request that all the supervisors look at the Lee site before they make their recommendation to the state on Friday,” petitioned Fodderstack resident Wayne Smoot, in the final word at Monday’s hearing.

The other issues are very real, but I’m not sure the town can address them.” Mr. Wickens replied, “I’m not sure about the town’s power to regulate traffic. The state maintains the roads.” Following expressions of opposition to the supervisors’ proposal from several county residents who live along the Fodderstack, including Lee Bird, Susan Lane and Alan Olsen, the council discussed the approach it should adopt toward the proposed landfill site. Mayor Morehouse said that “we’re trying to convey a sense of our concerns to the board. We’re not trying to take a forceful position, except to put it to the board - ‘these are our concerns’. The key words are ‘factual and forceful’. We must gather our concerns and express them with unanimity.” Supervisor J. Newbill Miller, who represents Hampton District, which includes the Town of Washington, explained to the council that “we have made no firm commitment to the Lee site - we’ve not even made a tentative commitment.” Regardless of the site, Supervisor Miller continued, “The supervisors make a recommendation. Then the state decides the site’s feasibility, and a consultant is hired to make a study (of the environmental impact of the site). After that is completed there has to be zoning approval, a public hearing before the planning commission, and another before the board. “I don’t know about the visibility question,” Mr. Miller added.

And then, when you get to Massie’s Corner, you know you were right the first time.” Mr. Miller said that “I represent Hampton District, and I will do what my constituents in Hampton District want to do. . . . It’s not true that the supervisors haven’t looked diligently. . . . There’s not a place in the county where you couldn’t get this many people to oppose the site. “I will go with the residents of Hampton District. But when we don’t have a place to dump the garbage on July 1, I want you to back me just like you are backing me now,” Mr. Miller concluded. Mr. Wickens asked if any thought had been given to a temporary landfill to take care of the county’s needs until one of several resource recovery facilities now under construction is completed. Mr. Miller replied that the startup costs for the landfill are the problem. “The equipment, the road, the cost of monitoring wells . . . it’s a tremendous amount of money.” The council unanimously passed a resolution requesting the Board of Supervisors “to consider alternate sites for the landfill.” It expressed the concerns of the council members; representing the residents lyho called on council members to express their feelings; about the potential problems with “traffic, smells, rodents, pollution, out-of-county trash and water contamination.” ' PLUMBING & HEATING &SUPPL!ESi ISlis. -r’ -lilBI 32 years experience in helping homeowners with their problems!

It’s definitely a success,” added her husband, Martin. “It was all very manageable,” Mrs. Woodard said. “It had an easier feel to it, not so overwhelming as last year. Both the people who worked and the customers seemed to enjoy the festivities.” Mr. Woodard conceded that the crowds were lighter than last year, when the festival was held the same weekend as the Trinity Church’s House Tour and Dried Flower Sale. “The Sperryville Business Council decided that by taking the earlier weekend it would spread the business out more - instead of having it all happen one weekend,” Mrs. Woodard explained. “The idea of presenting the area as a fun place to go, even if the leaves are not perfect . . . that’s what we are trying to do. We’re pleased with sales, and people certainly seem to be having a good time. We hope to have the same big crowds at the Artists of the Blue Ridge show in two weeks.” Tom Junk, who along with his wife Danielle runs Carriage House in Sperryville, said the event had a real “hometown” feel to it. “It was low-key, not a big commercial thing. We all had a real good time. ... It was a good kick-off for the month ... We didn’t have the crowds that came last year, but it was a real nice crowd. “We’ll be doing it again next year,” Mr. Junk added, “as well as the Sperryville Spring Festival.” Peggy Smith of the Sperryville Antique Market reported that the market was “jammed both Saturday and Sunday. We were swamped. .. . you couldn’t have asked for a better weekend. . . . I’m so proud of the Market (which held its fourth annual craft show in conjunction with the festival this year).” Mrs. Smith added that Mazie Clark, who runs the snack bar at the market, ran out of food on Saturday and had to go into Culpeper to replenish her supplies for Sunday. “She didn’t have a crumb left either day.” Cheri Woodard added, on a humorous note, that she finds the festivals are a great idea because, “knowing that we have a festival coming is the only way we ever take the time to get everything all cleaned up!” Lawsuit Continued from page 1 part of a 130-acre tract owned by Charles K. Estes. In February 1975, f Zoning Administrator Fanning Baumgardner approved the division of 60.65 acres from that tract into three parcels: an 8.65-acre lot and two 26-acre lots. Mr. Estes conveyed the two larger lots to Lindgren Land Incorporated in June 1976, and the following year Oscar Lindgren resubdivided what is now the Lozano property into two 12.8753-acre lots, the division approved by Zoning Administrator Evan McNear. The two lots were sold to the Lozanos in June 1978, and have been held by them since in what is essentially a single tract, with no buildings or other improvements on either piece, according to the complaint filed by the Halls. In granting exceptions for the Lozano subdivision earlier this month, the supervisors agreed that strict application of the ordinance’s provisions would work a hardship. The petition filed by the Halls’ attorney last week maintains that hardship, as grounds for an exception, must relate to the land itself. “Any hardship that might exist resulted solely from ignorant or deliberate disregard of the existing land use ordinances,” Mr. Konick argues. Asking the court to nullify the board’s action, he says that granting the exception to the prohibition against lots of less than 25 acres on less than 50-foot rights-of-way “violates and destroys the purpose, intent and specific standards” of the county’s subdivision ordinance. Further, he maintains that the exceptions “adversely affect the Halls’ comfort and privacy” and will cause irreparable damage to the aquatic fish ponds on their property. The Halls and other Rappahannock County landowners “have a right to rely upon the county board and its agents” to enforce the subdivision ordinance in a “consistent and rational manner ... to protect the public interest,” Mr. Konick writes. The board also has a duty to adequately supervise its agents to whom enforcement duties are delegated and to correct those acts which violate the subdivision ordinance, the attorney maintains in the complaint. Rappahannock’s supervisors have “utterly and consistently failed in the performance of these duties,” Mr. Konick argues. • -i*i APPLEHANNOCK COUNTY CIRCA 1792 + BED AND BREAKFAST potential, Woodville’s oldest house, Spacious rooms, bay windows, new country kitchen, Nestled by giant colorful maples.
