JANUARY 15.1987 Washington, Virginia 22747 Phone 675-3349 25 cents Highway funding; Four-lane Route 211 to reach Sperryville in 1992 By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Ncwi Staff Writer In 1964, Virginia’s General Assembly decreed that Route 211, as part of the state’s arterial highway system, would be dual laned. A quarter of a century later, it looks Idee that decree may finally be carried out. John McCarthy, the Board of Supervisors’ administrative assistant, told the supervisors at their January meeting that Route 211 is scheduled to be four-laned from Washington to Speyryville over the next six years at a cost of $13 million. Plans call for the first construction contracts to be let in July 1989, with the project’s completion date expected in June 1992. “Hot off the press, the final tentative allocation of funds” will put the parallel laning of Route 211 back on track, resident highway engineer Don Askew confirmed in a telephone interview Tuesday. The $13 million for the project comes from additional highway binding approved by the legislature and Gov. Gerald Baliles’ initiative on transportation, specifically the additional one-half cent sales tax which took effect Jan. 1, Mr. Askew said. “This new source of funds appears to be relatively stable, and it will allow the department to proceed with projects that have been sitting on the drawing boards for many years,” the resident engineer explained. “Route 211 is one of those projects.” As part of the state’s arteriaT highway system, Route 211’s widening was supposed to have been finished “a long, long time ago,” Mr. Askew conceded. “We had started buying rights-of-way, then the crunch came.” Oil shortages led to shortfalls in gas tax revenue as maintenance costs skyrocketed, Mr. Askew recalled. This spiraling squeeze put construction projects on the back burner. “It was bad timing,” he added. The new tentative schedule calls for right-of-way acquisition to start again in fiscal year 1988-89. Construction on the first section, from Washington to the Covington River, is expected to begin in the summer of 1989 and continue for 18 months to two years. Work on the second section, from the Covington River to Sperryville, will start in the summer of 1990 with completion anticipated in 1992. WhrfE will happen when the dual lane reaches Sperryville? ‘Well, it will probably tie down with what is there and that will probably be it for many, many years,” Mr. Askew reported. At present, he said, there are no plans to bring the dual lanes “around or through Sperryville.” He did note that a connecting Rappahannock News staff graphic/Lou Hatter spur may be built at some future point to tie Routes 522 and 231 to Route 211. “There’s a real problem getting trucks through Sperryville off Route 522 to Route 211,” Mr. Askew pointed out. However, this project has not yet advanced even to the planning stage, the resident engineer added. Although he repeatedly emphasized that the funding for the widening of Route 211 to Sperryville is tentative, Mr. Askew sounded confident that this time around, the work will proceed as scheduled. “It looks like we have a pretty stable, depuulable source of revenue,” he conHKded. County’s secondary road allocation will double By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock New* Staff Writer “I usually come with sad financial woes but this is an unusual occasion,” resident highway engineer Don Askew announced at the Board of Supervisors’ Dec. 1 meeting. He reported that Rappahannock will get $440,000 in secondary road funds this fiscal year, more than double what was anticipated in July. “Everybody’s highway taxes went up January 1 but also, we’ll start getting results moneywise,” Mr. Askew told the supervisors, adding that the new tax will bring $151,000 in new highway money to the county. The windfall will be used to pay off projects that have been “overspent” and bring forward other work already in the six-year road plan, according to the resident engineer. In light of the additional revenue, Chairman Hubert Gilkey asked if the supervisors could propose road projects. If the work is included in the county’s six-year plan, it can be moved up with the receipt of additional revenue, Mr. Askew replied. But if the project is not listed, it must be added to the plan when it comes up for review every two years, he said. “The key to all secondary road improvement projects is the availability of donated right-of-way,” the resident engineer reminded the su pervisors. Supervisor Charles Estes asked when work could begin on Route 622 in Gid Brown Hollow north of the Rediviva Bridge. “We’ll get that section next year or the following year,” Mr. Askew said. “Assuming the increased finding stays at the same level, we’ll be able to add several projects . . . We’ve been wanting that one for some time. With your help, we can work on the right-of-way this winter,” the resident engineer told Mr. Estes. “We’ve spent very little money in that Route 622 corridor,” he acknowledged. The secondary improvement projects added to the work list for 198687 with the receipt of the additional $232,000 include: • Pete Tharpe Road (Rt. 622): .6 mile from west of Route 661 to Route 661 to be graded, drained, stabilized and surface treated, $66,000. • Slate Mills Road (Rt. 707): 1.6 miles from the intersection with Route 231 to be widened and repaved, $36,000 (with $66,000 more to be spent the following year). • Main Street in Sperryville, .2 mile to be repaved, $16,000. • The old co-op road in Sperryville (Rt. 1003) from Route 522 to Route 211, .73 mile to be repaved, $36,086. „ Legislators to weigh .! \ ■ ■ .O .... ■. By DONALD DEL ROSSO Anindel Newspapers Richmond Bureau RICHMOND — Operating on the political maxim that it’s far better to give than to receive during an election year, the General Assembly is planning a $180 million tax break for Virginians in 1987. That’s just one of a handful of controversial money matters the legislature will wrestle with during 1987 the General Assembly, which opened Wednesday. The estimated $180 million will come from the so-called revenue windfall, created as a result of federal tax reform measures Congress adopted last year. Virginia’s income tax structure is fashioned after th'cTfederal government’s. Since federal tax reform lowered tax rates by eliminating many deductions, Virginians could lose $183 in itemized deductions that will go directly to the state if Virginia tax rates are not lowered. In light of last year’s $450 million ill tax increases, there seems to be considerable bipartisan support for returning the windfall to taxpayers. Gov. Gerald L. Baliles has said he doesn’t believe taxpayers should be penalized by the new tax code. Many Democratic and Republican legislators agree wittyhim. 1 Sen. Charles L, Waddell (D-Loudoun/Fairfax) says he “totally” supports the governor’s plan to send the revenue back to taxpayers. “I totally support the governors proposal. I don’t know the details, but he indicated it would go back to the taxpayers. ” But some lawmakers expect a tussle over questions of equity: How should the unanticipated revenue be distributed, and who should get it? Lt. Gov. L. Douglas Wilder wants the extra revenue to go to the poor and the elderly in the form of a tax credit to help offset last year’s salestax increase. Since the lieutenant governor can’t introduce legislation, Lt. Gov. Wilder will have to get a senator or delegate to sponsor his proposal. Senate minority leader William A. Truban (R-Fauquier/Clarke/Shanandoah/Warren) said the General Assembly will give the $180 million “back to the people ’—where it belongs.” But he added that he thinks corporations also should get some tax relief. Del. Kenneth B. Rollins (R-Loudoun/Fauquier) thinks there’s “some merit” to the Wilder proposal, but said he would prefer the income-tax rates be adjusted so that “every taxpayer benefits.” Del. Robert T. Andrews (R-Loudoun/Fairfax) seems convinced the money will “get back to the people. I think it’s going to be a question of who gets what.” But he voiced doubts about the Wilder proposal. “We’ve tried that in the past — to reduce the tax on drugs and food. I’m not so sure that’s going to work. We’ll have to see how things develop.” Del. Kenneth R. Plum (D-Reston) said refunding the windfall dollars could get “complicated before the General Assembly is done with the matter.” t Changing the rate, he said, “doesn’t mean it’s necessarily going to the same guy who loses federal deductions. We’re going to hear a whole lot about this.” Other matters to be considered by the General Assembly: • Insurance liability reform —Some believe huge liability claims against insurance companies are partly responsible for the dramatic increase in coverage premiums in recent years. That has made it difficult for local governments and the medical profession, especially, to get adequate and affordable protection. To help ease the situation, a Senate-House panel recently recommended a $250,000 ceiling on “pain and suffering” awards. Of such a cap, Sen. Truban said, “I think that’ll help. We can work that out pretty decently.” While he admits the “cap approach is attractive,” Mr. Andrews thinks there are other “solutions.” For instance, the General Assembly might consider penalties against lawyers who file “frivolous” suits. It also might force insurance companies to base their premium on in-state rates rather than out-of-state rates, which he said tend to be higher in Virginia.

Brown sentenced to 15 years Harold Voyd Brown, 39, Box 118, Syria, was sentenced Monday in Rappahannock County Circuit Court to 15 years in the state penitentiary for the murder of Aurelious Worth Timmons last June 7. The sentence was the result of a plea agreement reached with Rappahannock County Commonwealth Attorney Peter Luke. In exchange for the Commonwealth’s recommendation of a 13year sentence on a second-degree murder charge and an additional two-year sentence on a charge of use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, Brown pleaded guilty to both charges. Mr. Timmons was struck in the right side of the neck and head with one blast from a 12gauge shotgun as he stood on the front porch of his home on Rt. 231, 2.2 miles north of the Madison County line. He was pronounced dead a short time after being transported to Culpeper Memorial HospitaTby the Washington VFD Advanced Life Support Unit. Brown was named in a statewide wanted bulletin broadcast by the Virginia State Police within hours of the 10 p.m. shooting, and was the subject of a weekend-long manhunt which covered Rappahannock and Madison counties. He called Lt. Randy Jenkins of the Madison County Sheriffs Department late Monday morning, June 9, and “told me he wanted me to come and get him,” Lt. Jenkins said at the time. He was placed under arrest a short time later, and has been in custody since. In a statement prior to Brown’s sentencing, Mr. Luke said, “This is the most serious offense which can be charged: the taking of another’s life ... As with many of these matters, when you get to the bottom of it - it was a domestic problem. Mr. Brown and his wife were separated, and she was dating the son of the deceased. “Had this domestic situation not taken place, I have no doubt that Mr. Timmons would not have been shot. Mr. Timmons was not known to the defendant - he had hard feelings toward the son, but not toward Aure(Continued on Page 5) Eastham gels six months “This crime, in this court’s judgement, is the most severe breaking and entering ever observed in Rappahannock County,” said Judge W. Shore Robertson, as he sentenced John Richard Eastham, 19, of Rt. 1 Washington, to six months in jail for the burglary of Mrs. Charles Compton’s house on Rt. 645 in Amissville last Feb. 28. Eastham was charged with breaking and entering and grand larceny in the incident. Judge Robertson sentenced the young man to two years in the state penitentiary on the grand larceny charge, plus two years supervised probation, but suspended the penitentiary term. Eastham was then given the six month jail term on the breaking and entering charge. He was also ordered to pay the costs of the prosecution and make restitution to Mrs. Compton. Judge Robertson said that he felt that the plea agreement was lenient, but because of the defendant’s “good past record, his cooperation with law enforcement and the recommendation of the Commonwealth Attorney,” he accepted the arrangement. The plea agreement was part of a (Continued on Page 12) Sen. Miller sees tax By LOU HATTER Rappahannock New* Staff Writer “It’s going to be an active session,” predicted State Senator Kevin G. Miller (R-26), when asked about his forecast for the General Assembly session which convened in Richmond Monday. Echoing the sentiment of Del. Raymond R. (Andy) Guest, Sen. Miller said Friday that he intends to make the adoption of a state income tax adjustment - to offset the increased tax burden imposed by the federal Tax Reform Act of 1986 - his first priority during the session. Sen. Miller said that there are several approaches being considered, and numerous bills were pre-filed prior to the sesoinn'e nrr As the state tax laws stand now, Virginians will pay, according to various estimates, somewhere between $185 and $300 million in additional income taxes this year. Although federal tax rates were lowered by last year’s sweeping reforms, the base of taxable income was broadened, creating the additional potential tax revenue. Proposals under consideration include increasing the personal exemption for state taxes, increasing the minimum income level for the highest tax bracket (where most of the increased tax burden will be felt), or increasing the standard deduction. It is also possible that the final bill will include some combination of those ^proposals. " “There are lots of bills pending,” S^n. Miller reported. “I just don’t know what’s going to shake out of it ... I feel sure it will be evened out - whether it will be enough to be revenueneutral - I’m sure that the administration wants a little gravy left.” He also told residents gathered for a town meeting at the courthouse Friday morning that he plans to push for legislation to lower the tax assessment on capital gain resulting from the sale of an asset owned for a period of years. “It is an inequity which has existed in our tax laws since 1926, but it has been made dramatically more inequitable by the changes in federal tax laws,” Sen. Miller said. Specifically, the culprit is the elimination of the long-term capital gains deduction of 60 percept of the gain on the sale of property. Sen. Miller explained that, SEN. KEVIN MILLER because of inflation, if a person bought property in 1967 for $10,000, and sold it in 1987 for $20,000, he has actually lost money. Now, the $20,000 capital gain will be fully taxed, “even though the $20,000 received has only about two-thirds of the purchasing power of the $10,000 invested in 1967.” The federal tax changes will result in a 40 percent increase in the capital gains tax. “If you think the 40 percent increase in federal income tax on the sale of assets is rather great,” the senator continued, “then be aware that the Virginia income tax on the sale of assets will increase by 260 percent.” “My proposal,” Sen. Miller said, “would provide that if a taxpayer’s adjusted federal gross income includes a capital gain on the sale of property, and the property has been owned by the taxpayer for any part of three or more calendar years, the taxpayer may take a deduction on the state return for the inflation factor for such period of time the taxpayer owned the property.” Sen. jMiller listed as another priority increases in the number and pay of state troopers. “The numbers of State Police have gone down. When you look at the figures - there’s no question that something needs to be done ... It’s the same with game wardens: there are fewer wardens now to control more hunters.” “There is a crying need for an increase in game wardens,” Sen. Miller said. “In my opinion it’s (Continued from Page 3)

JSTews of Record General District .court Donald Ray Bright, of Sperry* ville, pleaded guilty Tuesday to a misdemeanor charge of vandalizing a state vehicle, and was sentenced to 12 months in jail by Rappahannock General District Court Judge Charles Foley. In asking for a jail sentence, Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke said that “In this county, we have a problem with vandalism of state vehicles. They have to be left on the highway, where they are sitting ducks for vandals. It is an expensive proposition for the taxpayers.” State Trooper C. A. Moore testified that the incident occurred on an evening last fall when a large crowd had gathered around the vehicles, which were parked on the shoulder of Rt. 211 just outside Sperryville. One tire on each of the two vehicles was slashed with a knife. He said that the damage was substantial, due to the large replacement cost of thetire8. Trooper Moore testified that he interviewed Bright, who told him that he had been drinking, and said that “I’m not going to say I didn't do it and I’m not going to say that I did - because I don’t know.” Mr. Luke said that Bright admitted to him that he had committed the vandalism, and asked that as a result of that confession similar charges against one of Bright’s companions be dropped. In passing sentence, Judge Foley said “The court believes a jail sentence is appropriate,” and sentenced Bright to 12 months in jail, with 11 months suspended on condition of good behavior. Judge Foley also directed that Bright make restitution to the Highway Department, and pay the cost of the prosecution. Cases decided Tuesday were: Sarah Susan Atkins, drunk in public, no prosecution.

Preview (Continued from Page 1) Sen. Waddell said he favors the "strongest possible legislation in tins area” of tort reform. Caught between a rock and a hard place, the General Assembly will try to placate the medical profession (which favors the cap) and the legal profession (which opposes it), and at the same time see that the injured are fairly compensated. Of the insurance matter, Del. Rollins said, “We're really facing a crisis on that. It’s spread out almost like a cancer. It’s affecting state government, it’s affecting local government, recreation facilities and daycare centers. Nobody can get insurance.” He said imposing a cap on pain and suffering awards is one way of improving the insurance climate. • Lottery — Area legislators believe Del. J.W. "Billy” O’Brien (DVirginia Beach) has a better than even chance of getting his colleagues to put the lottery issue to a voter referendum. A recent Senate study indicates the lottery should generate millions in new revenue during the first year. Del. O’Brien said in an interview this week that the lottery should “bring in $400 million to $450 million when it’s in full swing.” • Education — Among other things, the Governor’s Commission on Excellence in Education has recommended programs to reduce illiteracy and the dropout rate. But the General Assembly probably won’t give much thought to the proposal to teach 4-year-olds because of the $225-mUlion-per-year price tag. Some legislators think mandatory schooling for 4-year-olds is excessive. “I’m not persuaded that that’s a good idea,” Del. Rollins said. “I think that’s early in life to go to school. And it’s asking too much of taxpayers.” -Sen. Waddell said of the proposal, “I think we have to crawl before we can walk. As great as the idea might be, I don’t know that it’s affordable in this short session. I can’t see it going very far in a non-budget year.” • Prisons — Democrats and Republicans alike believe the state has to act quickly to build facilities to handle at least 1,500 prisoners by 1990. The expansion would cost $80 million to $100 million, according to Vivian Watts, secretary of Transportation and Public Safety. The project would be paid for with bonds in stages, the secretary told newspaper editors in a recent interview. Sec. Watts said her department has identified Charles City as a possible site for a 1,500-bed facility. But The Associated Press last week reported that 500 Charles City residents have signed a petition opposing a prison site there. House minority leader Raymond R. “Andy” Guest (R-Rappahannock/Rappahannock/Clarke/W arren) suggested the state may need several new prisons. “We’re going to have to build two 750-bed prisons — perhaps three over the next 10 years.” He said the new construction could be funded with voter-approved bonds. Sen. Waddell called the prison issue “one of the major items that we need to deal with. And again, I don’t know how we can deal with it in a short session.” Expansion of Virginia’s prison system might require cuts in other programs, said Del. Rollins. “These things cost money,” he explained. “People want law and order, as I do. And they want people who are guilty of crimes to be punished, as I do. But some things are going to have to suffer if (money) goes to Vehicle stolen, driver sought A 1980 2-door Volkswagen Rabbit was stolen Saturday night from J. R.’s Auto Sales on Rt. 211 west of Sperryville. The theft was discovered when the driver wrecked the vehicle on Rt. 600, approximately one mile outside of Sperryville. According to Trooper R. A. Baines, the vehicle was taken sometime late Saturday night or early Sunday morning. Trooper Baines received the report of the accident at about 1 a.m. Sunday. He said that when he arrived, the driver had fled the scene. Trooper Baines said that his investigation is continuing, but that at this time there has been no arrest and no charges have been filed. YOUR MONEY OR YOUR LIFE. When you give to the Red Cross, you take on a great responsibility saving thousands of lives. Maybe even your own. 1 prisons.” He continued, "Education’s going to have to suffer or mental health is going to have to suffer or state employees are going to suffer. . . . There just is not enough money to go around. Fundamentally, it’s a balancing act.” Del Thomas M. Moncure Jr. (RFauquier/Stafford) doesn’t think the General Assembly will take substantive action on prisons until next year. “We’ll lay the groundwork,” he said, “but in the off year of the budget you’re just not going to come up with anything dramatic. ” • Transportation districts — Such districts would let localities impose a tax to help fund transportation projects of regional importance. The districts would be designed after sewer authority districts. The bill was introduced during the special session last September but was carried over for technical reasons. But use legislation can’t be carried over from a special session; the bill will be reintroduced and sponsored by Del. Waddell. o Censure — The Senate will decide whether to follow a committee, recommendation and censure Sen. Peter K. Babalas (D-Norfolk) on conflict-of-interest charges for which he was acquitted last year. The Senate seems divided about how to deal with the committee recommendation. Recent newspaper accounts appear to reflect those differences. On Jan. 8 the (Norfolk) Virginian-Pilot reported that Sen. Babalas, if reprimanded, would question his colleagues about possible conflicts of interest over certain votes they made. But Jan. 9, the Richmond TimesDispateh stated that Sen. Babalas and the Democratic leadership had worked out a fragile agreement that would minimize open and embarrassing debate among Democrats. For political reasons in an election year, the Senate will try to dispose of the Babalas matter this week, Sen. Truban predicted. “I think the Democrats are going to work that out. The courts ruled you can’t look into the mind of a man and see if he acted willfully or not.” If the Democrats wanted to punish Sen. Babalas, they should have done so before the court ruling, Sen. Truban said. Besides, he added, “Babalas has had enough.” Other matters to receive attention during the Assembly session include: • Phosphate ban — Proposal would ban phosphate detergents to help preserve the Chesapeake Bay. Maryland and Washington, D.C., already have done so. Gov. Baliles said he would support a ban. • Regional primary — A bill is expected to be introduced to have Virginia join 12 other southern states in a regional presidential primary on March 8,1988. • Drug enforcement — Attorney General Sue Terry’s proposals for tougher enforcement of anti-drug laws in the schools. • Contact visits — A bill by Sen. Robert E. Russell (R-Chesterfield) to prohibit contact visits for death row inmates. • Blaze orange — Legislation would require hunters to wear blaze orange clothing during deer season. • Faculty raises — A proposed pay raise for college faculty members. • No-pass, no play — A watereddown version of Del. O’Brien’s nopass, no-play proposal for high school athletes. Sen. Miller (Continued from Page 1) getting critical. The hunting situation could get out of control if we don’t get more wardens.” Asked about the prospect of relief from the increased truck traffic travelling Rt. 522 since Rt. 17 in Fauquier County was closed to tractor-trailers, Sen. Miller was not optimistic. “Some relief for Rt. 522 is included in the six-year (highway) plan, but nothing immediate.” Secretary of Transportation and Public Safety Vivian Watts has said that her department will propose an additional 1000 prison beds for the state correctional system, to be built by 1991. Whether the beds will be added as one large facility, or located in several smaller, regional facilities, has not yet been determined. “I’ve heard about the proposal for a new prison,” Sen. Miller replied. “It’s just not practical to continue to operate the old penitentiary in Richmond... Economically, (building a new facility) is not a bad deal for the state. The land (where the present prison stands) probably should sell for enough to build a new facility. It’s not a bad deal for the taxpayers.” Sen. Miller said that he feels that Gov. Gerald L. Baliles will not propose any action on the recommendations submitted to him last fall by his Blue Ribbon Commission on Education. He added that he is particularly opposed to the panel’s recommendation for mandatory pre-school for four-year-olds. Citing universal opposition to the plan from legislators and citizens alike, he observed, “I think that the governor is politically astute enough not to pursue that one.” Reporting on the Commonwealth’s budget situation, Sen. Miller said, ‘We’re in good shape - even running a ‘small’ surplus of $50 to 60 million... It sounds like a lot,” he quipped, “but percentage-wise, it’s about one-quarter of one percent of the budget.” Asked by his constituents about the possibility of influencing the federal budget process, Sen. Miller replied, “The only thing we can do is send messages asking Congress to get its act together. “I don't know whether they will be able to meet the Gramm-Rudman requirements this year. From what I hear, President Reagan’s proposed budget (delivered to Congress last week) does meet the targets.” Sen. Miller said that he had introduced a resolution last year which requested Congress to work toward a balanced budget, and would have prevented Congressmen and Senators from seeking re-election if there were a budget deficit during their term. He added that, to his disappointment, the proposal was killed by committee. John Marocchi observed, “It’s a balancing act (with the budget). The programs individually are good - but collectively, they're too expensive.” “If,” Sen. Miller agreed, “we could hold down the cost of government operations - that would help. -. . I simply think that the federal government is too bankrupt to do much to fund (programs like) the Clean Water Act.” (The $18 billion Clean Water Act was passed overwhelmingly by the House of Representatives last week. Calling the bill a “budget-buster,” President Reagan had vetoed the bill last year, but the vote of406 to 2 virtually assures that Congress could override another presidential veto.) “It’s going to have to come from the states,” Sen. Miller contended, citing the cooperative effort among Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania to clean up the Chesapeake Bay. As discussion shifted to politics and the political process, Sen. Miller commented that “It can be very discouraging.” Mr. Marrochi replied, “It is a serious indictment of our political process that interested people are so discouraged and disgusted.” “There seems to be a great deal of pessimism,” Sen. Miller agreed, “about the way things are going. It’s unfortunate. People think they can’t do anything. Even members of Congress, they think ‘I can’t do anything, I’m only one person.’ I get pessimistic when I think about it.” Obese children: A large problem ' fy a time whenmost Americans seem concerned with getting in shape, shedding extra pounds and generally living a healthier lifestyle, there is a group being left behind - our children. TTiey are being left behind to sit back, eat poorly, watch television and live a generally inactive lifestyle which can lead to obesity. Obesity is defined as a body weight 30 percent higher than the values listed on accepted height and weight tables. Recent studies show that the total number of obese children ages 6 to 11 has grown 54 percent in the last 15 to 20 years. Among 12-17 years old, the prevalence of obesity has increased 30 percent. The problem of childhood obesity is not that it’s just physically unattractive, or pyschologically damaging in the formative years. It also poses a significant potential health problem for youngsters. Heredity plays a big role in this problem, meaning every child is not at equal risk. But there are other contributing factors. Many scientists are pointing an accusing finger at television. Children eat more while they watch television, and they watch a lot of it. They also have a tendency to eat more of the foods advertised on tele DURING JANUARY NO LABOR CHARGES FOR FRAMING FOR SENIOR CITIZENS Joyce Chandler Royal Plaza Shopping Center Custom Picture Framing Since 1977 Front Royal, Va. 636-3485 Closed Thursday FRCSH MCRT USDA Choice Chuck Roast.*1.39 i.

Now based in Rappahannock, the group has packed the Gay Street Theater at each appearance. Trapezoid has been praised as the “finest folk group in the country” by The Washington Post for its rich blend of acoustic sounds and the haunting vocals, of Lorraine Duisit and Freyda Epstein. The band’s music cuts across many borders, drawing freely from music from many places, styles and eras. “There is a quality of timelessness about their blending of old sounds to contemporary themes,” said the Oakland (Calif.) Tribune. “If ever a band has succeeded in merging old and new worlds, Trapezoid is the one.” This year, Trapezoid cuts across another musical border with the addition of two great artists, Tom Jones on percussion and Michael Anaron on keyboards, cello, bass and vocals. “Our music has always had a very strong sense of melody and texture,” explained Trapezoid’s founder,' Paul Reisler. “The addition of keyboards and percussion makes the rhythmic element much more powerful. The rhythm really propels the music now.” Although Levy has often recorded with Trapezoid, live performances together are rare. According to Mr. Reisler, “The most exciting concerts we have ever given have all been with Howard. His incredible versatility and virtuosity coupled with his sense of surprise inspires the best performance in all of us.” While best known for his harmonica and piano playing, Howard Levy plays a roomful of instruments in almost any imaginable style. This versatility has made him a very popular session and sideman. He’s worked regularly with such diverse artists as Claudia Schmidt, John Prine, Tito Puente, Pacquito D’Rivera, Steve Goodman, John McCutcheon, the Balkan Rhythm Band and of course, Trapezoid.

V__/ THURSDAY, JANUARY 15.1987 Editorial Let our officials know The 1987 session of the Virginia General Assembly convened this week, amid controversy about issues ranging from a state lottery to compulsory pre-school for four-yearolds.

By EUGENE MCCARTHY Bipnlwwnock N«w» Contributing Writer For want of an agenda an administration may be lost. Vice-President Mondale, in explaining the failure of the Carter Administration, noted that President Carter was especially handicapped because he had "no agenda” to lean on after he was elected. The difficulties of that administration were further complicated, according to the former vice-president, because the White House was also without a mandate. Currently the lack of an agenda or of control of an agenda, if there is one, seems to be of more concern to politicians, political observers and analysts than the absence or presence of a mandate. Soon after the November elections the matter of what the National Agenda might be, or who had it, or had one, arose. This past week a New York Times article by Steven Roberts quotes Senator Heinz, a Republican from Pennsylvania, as observing that he didn’t sense among the Democrats "much consensus of their agenda for governing the country.” How one measures "much consensus,” the Senator did not say. Roberts, in the same article, quotes Senator Byrd of West Virginia as saying that as minority leader he had little power to set the agenda. Closing the "agenda gap,” the Times notes, is one of the challenges to the Democratic leadership in Congress in 1987. The press generally believed that (this was before the Iran-Nicaragua case became public) although the Democrats would control both the House and the Senate in the 100th Congress, President Reagan still controlled the agenda. Then along came Representative James Wright of Texas, the Democratic choice to succeed lip O'Neil as Speaker of the House of Representatives. Wright, the Washington Post reports, has asserted “Style” and “Agenda.” How one “asserts an Agenda” remains a little vague in the Post article. Wright’s asserted “agenda” was almost immediately rejected by other Democratic leaders of the House of Representatives. Meanwhile, there is agenda trouble at other levels of government. The New York Times in a headline asks the critical question, “Has Scandal Derailed Koch’s Agenda?” The mayor insists that the agenda has not been derailed, but it has been delayed. Agenda gaps, and lack of agendas, are not distinctively and solely American. They occur, if a gap or lack of an agenda can be said to occur, in foreign cultures as well as here in the United States - in China, for example. Washington Post Foreign Correspondent Daniel Southerland says that the Chinese student protestors do have at least a short range agenda, but the Post headline says that a long-term agenda is lacking. The problem has not gone unnoticed by the Christmas specialty trade; Camalier and Buckley of Washington, D. C. - one of the better leather goods retail stores of the country — offered among its preChristmas goods a (gather covered “agenda” with a clip. The agenda, crafted by the German firm of GoldPfeill, offered before Christmas at $100 per agenda, may now be on sale at reduced prices. Rappahannock Heritage R^jfniwnock Newt photo/Clpdy Mitnn WOODPILES IN RAPPAHANNOCK come in many shapes and sizes. Having a couple of conveniently placed trees makes stacking easier. J Letters to the editor Unfairly fined To the editor I am writing because I am a newcomer to Rappahannock County. I have lived here since the summer and etyoy the incredible atmosphere and the people have been vety friendly. The only complaint that I have is the way that I was officially welcomed into this rural county. I was followed to my residence by one of the local officers, who knew because of my current registration that I had just recently moved here from another nearby state, and politely handed me a ticket for not having a qpunty sticker. I was never given any no tice, never seen any bulletin in any paper, on any board, etc. in the county about having a sticker. I realize after speaking with Commonwealth Attorney Peter Luke that ignorance is no excuse for not knowing the law, and that quite frequently warnings are given and a grace -period allowed. I was given neither, and feel this is unfair. The county should in some way make known, not only by putting notices in when new stickers are available, but all throughout the year. Of course, I will have to pay the fine and court costs totaling $40 - but I’ll always remember what Mr. Luke said, “Welcome to Virginia!” LYNDA E. COHEN Rappahannock County A farewell to the Taney By EDITH POND Rappahannock Newt Contributing Writer On December 7, 1941, the Coast Guard Cutter Roger B. Taney, at Berth 6 in Honolulu Harbor, stood up to Japanese bombers and went on to serve the United States faithfully for 50 more years. On December 7, 1986, in an impressive and touching ceremony, she was decommissioned at Portsmouth, Virginia. Jesse Pond of Sperryville, president of the Pearl Harbor History Associates and former treasurer of the Pearl Harbor Survivors Association, was asked to say a few words of farewell to the old ship. Comparing r the cost of building the USS Taney with the costs of shipbuilding today, Mr. Pond said that the cutter had given the country a great "bang for its buck,” and that she truly deserved the Navy’s highest accolade, “Well done.” Mr. Pond’s remarks were well received by those present, including Corinne Taney Marks, who christened the ship in 1936, other members of the Taney family, current and past officers and members of the crew, and Rear Admiral Bobby F. Hollingsworth, Commander, Fifth Coast Guard District. 1 Have something to say about public issues? Get it off your chest. >.< Write a letter to the editor. * Republicans tripped themselves this time By DOUGLAS A. JEFFREY Ranwhannock Newt Contributing Writer Only CBS pre-empted its programming to cover our bi-annual national elections Nov. 4. Too bad its commentators spent half their time lamenting “negative campaigning,” of which we surely need more and not less. They should have advocated more serious negativity - in the style of great politicians of the past, e.g. F.D.R. (whose opponents called him an S.O.B., not a Great Communicator). Instead, they perpetuated the pernicious myth that these elections themselves were not terribly serious since there are “no great national issues” in 1986. Thus they compared this year with 1958, when Congressional Republicans took a drubbing with another popular Republican president serving his sixth year. For in 1958 there were “no great national issues.” Eisenhower went on to work with an opposition Congress that agreed with him fundamentally, and American life continued as before. As with most myths, there are certain facts supporting the comparison: Democratic senatorial candidates did campaign this year primarily on local and sectional issues, e.g. agricultural price supports (Georgia, the Dakotas), pollution control (California), confining nuclear waste dumps to the East (Washington, Nevada), and increasing the Coast Guard budget (Florida). And the voters, according to pollsters, did act on the basis of these less-than-national concerns. But are these facts misleading? A national concern is one felt by all Americans. And insofar as it’s an issue. Democrats and Republicans generally disagree over it. With this in mind, let us compare 1986 with 1958. In 1986, it’s a national concern that a Soviet-proxy government ex ists in Central America. One did not in 1958. And had it, our political parties would not have disagreed about what to do. Even in 1960, a Democratic president proclaimed at his Inaugural: “Let all our neighbors know that we shall join with them to oppose aggression or subversion anywhere in the Americas.” In 1986, what to do is a partisan issue: generally, Republicans think we should support the anti-communist Contras, while Democrats do not. In 1986, mention of God in public schools is a national concern. It was a concern but not an issue in 1958: the aforementioned Democratic Inauguree endorsed the “revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought,” citing chiefly “the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God.” In 1986, the status of this belief is,a partisan issue: generally, Republicans think that it should be treated in schools as essentially American, while Democrats oppose judicial nominees who agree as “religious fanatics.” In 1986, it’s a national concern whether Americans should be ruled bureaucratically. The regulatory machinery that a national welfare state requires didn’t exist, nor was it proposed in 1958. (Recall again the Democratic rhetoric of 1960: “Ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country.”) In 1986, bureaucratization ind welfare are partisan issues: generally, Republicans think that an independent spirit and healthy family life require decreases in taxation and regulation, while Democrats think that increases are necessary for “social justice. ” In 1958 our parties were agreed on “great national issues.” Thus there really were none. But this is not the case today. So how is it they were not recently decisive? Deception is the key. The Democrats deceived the people knowingly. Only when it became apparent they would control the Senate did they raise the Jolly Roger - gloating that Ronald Reagan would no longer be able to send support to the Contras; crowing that he would no longer be able to appoint "fanatic” judges; boasting that they could now block even minor attempts to curtail the bureaucracy. Democrats campaigned and won on other, non-national issues, while they knew that these were at stake. But in the end, they are not to blame for their success. Consider the Republicans. Why did they not make these "great national issues” the crux of the elections? It’s the hardest thing to figure this political year, and what it comes dpwn to is (1) self-deception, and (2) thin blood. Repeatedly in years past, Ronald Reagan has appealed for non-partisan Congressional support of his national agenda. When this has not come, he has compromised or surrendered while feigning victory. Driven by a dream of uniting America, he has shied away from engaging Congress wrathfully. Downplaying the deepest partisan rifts since the mid-19th century, he has appeared more the grandfatherly British monarch than the realigning statesman who can heal a divided nation. Mr. Reagan has failed to emulate F.D.R., who realigned America by giving no station to his partisan opponents (and by campaigning very negatively to fill Congress with his partisan allies). Now he will reap the harvest of that failure: even his cherished plan to pursue the Strategic Defense Initiative is doomed to derailment by the loss of a Republican Senate majority. The interesting political question as we look toward 1988 is whether the Republicans will be awakened by Reagan’s failure. From their posture on Nov. 4, it appears they will continue down the primrose path. Even Ja?k Kemp pronounced the “Reagan revolution” a success, and Republican realignment a fait accompli, at the very instant when liberal Democrats were tightening a grip on the Washington establishment which Reagan, in his failure to attack the Democratic Party as a whole, never seriously threatened to break. This is neither 1968 nor 1988. The nation is not united; nor will it be without a very partisan battle which results in a Congress not at loggerheads with the Chief of State. But those who must lead the Republican charge appear lost in a dream: it’s as if Paul Revere had ignored the distant lanterns as the British advanced, trusting in King George’s whimperless compliance with the wishes of padfistic Bostonians. No surprise, then, that Democratic congressmen and senators campaigned as if there were “no great national issues.” Doing so has served them well. But they have found strange bedfellows in Republican politicians, who approach recent elections like inter-conference football games — not as serious partisan contests upon which depend the happiness of our children and the survival of our democracy. It was not on ABC election night — where Maddie Hayes continued her vacuous pretense of eternal girlhood — but on CBS, and across the nation in the fall, that we saw — in the GOP — the most frivolous moonlighter of them all. -a Douglas Jeffrey is Director of Scholarship at the Claremont Institute.

Hourahan of Mountain Shadows Farm, Washington, Va., has been awarded a certificate in the National Education Development Tests. He achieved a score placing him nationally in the 90th plus percentile.

Brown v ■ (Continued from Page 1) lious Timmons.” "Mr. Timmons was at his home,” Mr. Luke continued. "He was armed at the time he was shot. He had a loaded shotgun when he leaned around the side of the house and was shot by the defendant.” Mr. Luke added that he had given the matter "great consideration” before entering into the plea agreement. He said that he had weighed the results of lab tests, the autopsy report, the feelings of the victim’s family, the defendant’s prior record, "and the defendant’s statement in this volume” - showing the court a nearly one-inch thick loose-leaf notebook which contained a transcript of Brown’s statement, made to Trooper H. A. Newlin, the investigating officer, following his arrest. In his favor, Mr. Luke noted, "the defendant turned himself in and made a full confession . . . avoiding the cost of a trial and the trauma to the victim’s family.” Because of several felonies Brown committed years ago, Mr. Luke concluded, the plea agreement was constructed "so that the defendant would not be eligible for parole at the same time as a first offender.” Brown’s attorneys, John G. Berry and Jeff Early, declined to make a statement prior to sentencing. Displaying no emotion, his eyes fixed on the table in front of him, Brown rose to stand beside his attorneys to hear his sentence pronounced. Asked by Judge W. Shore Robertson if he wished to make a statement, Brown replied quietly but firmly, “No.” Judge Robertson said that he concurred with the Common- i wealth’s recommendation for | sentencing, contained in the plea agreement, and sentenced Brown to 13 years in the state penitentiary on the murder charge, followed by a two-year sentence on the firearms charge. “It is the court’s hope,” Judge Robertson added, "that you will serve your time well and come back and make yourself a useful member of the community. That is, of course, up to you.” 10 YEARS AGO RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS From the Jan. 20,1977, edition The Rappahannock Board of Supervisors scheduled last Friday’s special meeting for the purpose of formulating an amendment to the subdivision ordinance. They announced at the regular meeting in January that they intended to move towards rezoning suitable property for landfill purposes and Friday’s work session was called to develop an amendment that would allow the supervisors to issue a conditional special use permit to control landfill activities.

C., will be at Gid Brown Bible Church on Sunday, Jan. 18, at 10 a.m. to give testimony about his recovery from alcoholism. Mr. Simmons was on the professional gospel quartet circuit for 23 years, singing with some of the nation’s better groups - the Plainsmen of Wichita, Kan., the Prophets of Knoxville and the Sego Brothers and Naomi of Nashville. His work made him friends with many famous entertainers as he worked with former Louisiana Gov. Jimmy Davis and country singing stars Roy Clark, Hank Snow, Jack Green and Faron Young. Despite his fame in the music world as “one of the best in the business,” according to the late James Sego and other gospel music leaders, Simmons was an alcoholic. “I craved a drink,” he says now. “I had to have my bottle. It didn’t matter who I was singing with, whether they approved or not, I had to have my liquor. If I was working with a group that didn’t approve of drinking (most didn’t approve), I would sneak off and drink. I’d get a motel room by myself and a bottle as soon as we hit town.” Simmons says he didn’t get to be a drunk overnight. He worked at it religiously, starting at age 13. After many years with various groups, Simmons says singing was no longer fun, the fame didn’t seem important any more. Something had to be done to change his life, he added. His wife Kay had faithfully - v i ■ •' -- ■ . «r i mtmmmmm,,;:- :* JAY SIMMONS endured his drinking escapades and the beatings, and still took care of their four daughters. According to Mr. Simmons, God miraculously saved him about nine years ago from a life of alcoholism. Since that time, he has been sharing his testimony in song and message in churches around the country. Simmons has had opportunities in the past years to return to the professional gospel singing business*, in Nashville. “I don’t want to go back,” he says. “I’ve had some offers but I’m committed to telling my story. I’m more interested in how I can help others. I’ve got to tell my story. The singing is secondary now.” Gid Brown pastor John Burke invites everyone to hear the personal testimony of Mr. Simmons.

This disease develops so slowly and?quietly that when it is diagnosed, it’s already too late. There is no known cure - only prevention through a well-balanced diet and healthy living. Women seem to develop osteoporosis four times more frequently than men and more often after menopause. The cause seems to be multiple. The cessation of female hormone secretion is thought to be a factor. Other contributing factors maybe: • A gradual calcium loss in the bones may be brought about by the dietary deficiency of adults over a lifetime. • Lack of exercise. • Heredity. • Alcohol abuse. • Prolonged use of prescription and over-the-counter drugs during infancy and childhood years. The density of the bones plays an important factor in the prevention of osteoporosis. The more dense and strong the bones, the less likely this disease will develop. Between the ages of 20 and 40, it is important to consistently maintain an adequate intake of calcium and other nutrients. After 40, the bones start to become thinner. This is a normal process of aging. Care needs to be taken to slow down the process of calcium loss in the body. This can best be done by watching the diet.

Glover reminds us that “Whatever thine hand findest to do. do with all thy might," but then added, “someone will think differently!" Don't they? There's not much in this life that you can do but that someone will think you should not be doing it. We live in a world where "second guessing" and “Monday morning quarterbacking" is a way of life, a way that often discourages even the most hearty among us. Every great achievement in life has opponents lying in its wake, people who thought it shouldn't have worked; even worked against it. But there's nothing wrong with someone differing with you. Differences of opinion and belief have been the greatest stimuli to progress. Differences can divide or multiply, add or subtract. It all depends on yoyr own beliefs and your attitude about what you believe and your attitude toward those who don't believe like you. Paul encouranes us hoth in nur tpnrlpnrv tn criticism of others and when we are criticized by them: “Who. are you to pass judgement on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Master is able to make him stand."

Being comfortable with self key to closeness with others By JOHN BORGENS Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer In sessions here at Family Focus, I encourage patients to tend to their personal and marital needs. In ffcct, many mental health professionals believe that personal adjustment is an important first step to effective marital relationships and child-rearing. One noted that to relate well to > children, parents must be comfortable with themselves. One parent said it well: “One should not completely sacrifice oneself for the family, but rather keep part of yourself for yourself and do something you enjoy.” Treating yourself well, this parent felt, would help avoid the feeling of being mistreated, used unfairly or overburdened when something goes Wrong. A sense of humor about one’s faults and the misfortunes of life were also cited as important aspects of successful personal adjustments. Love, respect and faithfulness between spouses provide needed security to the family. For example, a household in which love is openly expressed is a household in which children flourish. Verbalizing love to the children is not enough. Parents should make every effort to let their youngsters see warmth and tenderness in their marital relationship. Parents should not underestimate the importance of letting their children know how delighted they are when their spouse enters the house. The morning greeting and the goodnight kiss set an example which encourages the same kind of affection in the hearts and minds of the children. A husband and wife are more apt to be successful parents when they give their marriage the first priority. It may seem that the children are getting “second best” from this FdfffiLY r&CIttl approach, but they rarely are. A happy mother and father are most likely to have happy children when the children’s roles are clearly and lovingly defined. Child-centered households produce neither happy marriages nor happy children. These remarks highlight what most parents are reluctant to admit but what experts on child-rearing are finding to be true: that children tend to detract from rather than enhance the closeness between husband and wife. Recent studies show that a couple’s satisfaction with marriage and with each other tends to drop sharply just after their first child is born. With minor variations, it stays at a lower level during the childrearing years and increases again only after the youngest child leaves home. Thus, the results of the studies and the comments of the parents surveyed point out the need to work at maintaining closeness with the spouse by such means as weekly nights out together, occasional weekends alone together, tender greetings and thoughtful surprises.

Day realtor WHY PRICES VARY If you want to try an interesting experiment, check out the real estate ads in various parts of the country. You’d be surprised how the prices of comparable homes can vary. Why should there be such a difference? Many factors, some of which are geographical, affect the cost of housing. The climate, land costs, labor costs, zoning, taxes, etc. However, the bottom line is that housing is a commodity. As with any commodity, pricing is dictated by supply and demand. Now you can throw away the out-of-town papers and look at your hometown ads. Not only can regional prices vary dramatically, but so can prices within our local market. The quality of schools, local government and services, the employment market and the demand for one local town over another will make the difference. Even within towns, certain sections will command higher prices. It all boils down to one item — LOCATION. It is, by far, the most important factor in determining the value of your home.

Workshops at Conyers House The monthly workshops for prospective innkeepers offered by The Conyers House in Sperryville are a direct result of the guests teaching the teacher, said Sandra Cartwright-Brown, owner of The Conyers House. She said that she found herself answering the same questions every weekend. The guests continue to ask two questions: "Have you always wanted to own a country inn?” and “How did you get started doing this?” So, , rather than giving an informal workshop every weekend over breakfast, Mrs. Cartwright-Brown organized several workshops in February and March, 1986. The response was so favorable that she continued the workshops through September. After calling “time out” for the holidays, the workshops resumed this month. Of the 125 people who have attended the workshops, 17 have opened bed and breakfasts or have purchased property with the eventual goal of operating an inn. With out fail, each of the new innkeepers has called with questions which had been covered in the seminar, which taught Mrs. Cartwright-Brown that there is so much information offered in the workshop that the students were unable to absorb it all. So, in March she has planned a workshop specifically for people who are involved in the process of establishing or buying a bed and breakfast or country inn. The purpose is to review, compare notes and share problems and solutions. This advanced workshop will be held Sunday, March 15. The cost of each of the workshops is $45 per person. Each seminar is held from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m., and includes lunch and a tour of the Conyers House. Special emphasis is put on the kitchen and the differences between a standard home kitchen and a restaurant-equipped kitchen. The workshop covers each aspect of the establishment of a bed and breakfast. Publicity, advertising, income, expenses, employees, taxes, health and other regulations, entertainment, food service, specialties, printing, supplies and equipment are some of the many subjects covered in the seminar. Dates for upcoming workshops are Sat. Feb. 7, Sat. March 7 and Sun. April 5, from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. The advanced workshop will be held on Sun. March 15, from 2 to 6 p.m. Reservations or additional information are available from Sandra Cartwright-Brown, The Conyers House, (708) 987-8025.

Well, now there is a way. There is a new program in the area - the Virginia Master Gardener program. The program is an intensive 60hour/eight-week course which covers the topics of vegetable gardening, plant propagation, landscaping, turfgrass, fruit tree culture, soils, plant insects, diseases, pruning and much more. The classes are taught by University specialists as well as local experts. After completing the course and successfully passing an exam, Master Gardeners are then certified and begin the process of "repaying” the Extension Office through 50 hours of volunteer work for the course. Now in its 10th year in the state, the Master Gardener program, coordinated through VPI&SU, has trained more than 1,000 volunteers. The services of the Master Gardener volunteers can take many forms. One way many Extension Offices utilize their Master Gardeners is in plant clinics held at convenient locations on Saturdays when the Extension Office is closed. Here they diagnose plant problems, give advice, consultation and offer condolences to plant lovers who attend. The plant clinics serve as a forum for horticultural discussions and also inform the public of the Master Gardener program and when the next course will be held. The Northern Shenandoah Valley Master Gardener Program is being coordinated by the Warren County Extension Service. Participants are welcomed from Warren, Clarke, Frederick, Rappahannock and Shenandoah counties. Classes will be held in Front Royal beginning at 6:30 p.m. every Tuesday and Thursday from Feb. 17 to April 14. Other projects in which trained Master Gardeners may become involved include assisting at the Extension Office, answering telephone calls relating to plant problems, speaking engagements at local garden clubs, uniting articles, planning and developing community or 4-H gardens and working at public information booths at the county fair. If you are interested in joining the Master Gardener program, contact Birgitt Thornhill at 675-3619 or stop by the Rappahannock County Extension Office. Virginia Cooperative Extension programs, activities and employment opportunities are available to all people regardless of race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, handicap or political affiliation. He who sleeps in continual noise is wakened by silence. :> — W.D.

Eastham (Continued from Page 1) deal arranged by Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter H. Luke, in exchange for Eastham’s testimony for the prosecution against several codefendants in the burglary. Eastham was the last of the defendants to be sentenced. Several witnesses testified as to Eastham’s rehabilitation in the months following his arrest. Bobby Brown, a Washington, Va., building contractor who employs Eastham, said that he is “very dependable, does good work, is willing to learn.” Asked if the charges against Eastham would affect his status, Mr. Brown replied, “No sir. As long as he does the work, he has a job. (If he goes to jail) after he gets out, he hasajob.” Mr. Brown added, “I feel that he has spent a lot of time studying what happened and he has paid mentally a lot for it.” State Trooper H. A. Newlin, who with Rappahannock County Sheriffs Deputy John Facchina conducted the investigation, said that “Mr. Eastham was very cooperative with Deputy Facchina and myself. He gave written and recorded statements which assisted us in certain aspects of the case ... He was very honest in what he told us . . .

Jesus said He sent forth S a sower to sow. It is God’s* word that lets us know what to] trust Him for. Faith comes by] hearing, not by having heard,! but by our knowing what ] God’s will is for us. Because] they can accomplish such] wonders, God wants all His< “seed planted.” His seed is! powerless until it is planted.] Anyone who ever planted a] garden knows that. It has been proven thou-i sands of times and is still be-] J ing proven today right here in] £ Washington, Va. that by sim-] ~ pie presentation of enough of] the written word of God to the! minds and hearts of the incu-J rably afflicted, they can be] brought to the same state of] certainty and assurance con-1 ceming the healing of their] body as to the healing of their] soul. We are thankful for thej privilege of planting the incorruptible seed, the word of God! in the hearts of those Jesus! died for. We are here to help you.] JESUS IS LORD.

The most truthful information (about the investigation) was received from Mr. Eastham.” Eastham testified that the idea from the break-in came from his friends Chucky and Suzie Larimer and their parents. “Everybody came up with the idea, I just went along.” In a subdued voice, he added that “I think what we did was really bad. We owe Mrs. Compton a lot ... I wrote her a letter of apology... Nobody thought about Mrs. Compton’s feelings - It was really bad.” “I’d like to make it up,” he concluded. “I’d like to try and straighten out my life.” Lee Nettles, clinic director of Family Guidance Services of Rappahannock, testified that Eastham had been evaluated by his office after his arrest, resulting from a referral prompted by Eastham’s depression and anxiety following his arrest. Asked by Mr. Reynolds for an opinion on the effect jail time might have on Eastham, Mr. Nettles replied, “I couldn’t speculate on the effects of incarceration.” Eastham’s lawyer, Frank Reynolds, asked that he be placed in the Community Diversion Incentive (CDI) program, rather than serving CULPEPER COUNTY, 66 acre cattle farm, 7 room 2-story stone farmhouse, 7 i^pJngs, streams, lovely viev^Oj frontage on two state roads.

The CDI program provides intensive supervision of nonvwlent offenders, who are allowed to remain out of jail only as long as they obey the strict conditions of their probation. In addition, they must fulfill a community service requirement, as well as make payment of fines and restitution. Judge Robertson, while acknowledging the benefits of the CDI program, said that “I do not find a basis for CDI in this case . . . The court finds that your debt to society is greater than that.” Judge Robertson then pronounced sentence. He added that "You are a young man with a promising fbture - a good work record, a supportive family - and the court has confidence that after you have served your time you will be a useful member of the community.” WHY WAIT FOR WEEKS?
