MARCH 5.1987 Washington, Virginia 22747 Phone 675-3349 25 cents Inspector resigns; cites lack of support By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Kappahaimoek New* StaffWriter Charging ‘little or no support front the Board of Supervisors,” Building Inspector Emiel Smet has resigned, effective May 1. The announcement came at Monday’s board meeting following a two-hour executive session for consideration of employment, use of real property where the investing of public funds is involved and consultation with legal counsel. According to administrative assistant John McCarthy, the board agreed during the executive session to advertise the job vacancy and interview candidates for the position at a special meeting on March 30. Mr. Smet’s resignation cam* on the heels of the board’s refusal to advertise for public hearing an ordinance requiring certification and licensing for plumbing, mechanical and electrical contractors. “Whenever the board is more lowing an advertised public hearing. Informed by Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke of their mistake, the supervisors tabled, tabled, then tabled again, delaying action for three months. When the matter came up in February, Chairman Gilkey insisted that the building inspector be given a decision, one way or the other. “All I’m asking is the opportunity to have a public hearing on this matter,” Mr. Smet told the supervisors at the February board meeting. “I have no problem with that, but the ordinance should be refined first,” countered Supervisor Newbill Miller, suggesting a work session on the proposal. But at that work session on Feb. 17, the board voted 4-1, with Mr. Gilkey abstaining, to drop all consideration of the licensing program. “I regret leaving because I’ve worked with a lot of nice people here,” said Mr. Smet in an inter “Whenever the Board is more concerned with maintaining popular constituent support than insuring high quality in construction and safety through programs endorsed by the State, it is time for me to leave the responsibilities to someone else.” - Emiel K. Smet -Rapp. Co. Building Inspector concerned with maintaining popular constituent support than insuring high quality in construction and safety through programs endorsed by the state, it is time for me to leave the responsibility to someone else,” wrote Mr. Smet in a letter to Chairman Hubert Gilkey dated Feb. 23. Mr. Smet first asked the supervisors last fall to require that contractors be licensed; they acceded to his request but took the action by resolution. Law requires, however, that it be done by adoption of an ordinance fol view Monday afternoon. The job - three years as building inspector with one year in the dual capacity as zoning administrator - was “a real challenge, and I’ve had a good relationship with most of the people,” he added. Mr. Smet stressed that his departure comes not from the rejection per se of his request for a licensing program but from rejection'without a public hearing. He pointed out that not a single contractor had objected to the (Continued on Page 14) RCHS bids exceed literary loan Architect to negotiate over $158,693 shortfall By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON RappahMMck News Staff Writer “I think it’s important that we don’t overreact at this point,” cautioned assistant superintendent Tom Campbell, as the Rappahannock School Board learned last Thursday that the three bids received on the high school expansion exceeded the $1.5 million awarded the construction project through the state literary loan. "I certainly would have liked to see lower bids but I don’t see this as disastrous.” The bids opened at 2 p.m. on Thursday were: • $1,658,693 from Baughan Construction Company of Luray. • $1,783,140 from Harmon Construction Company of Harrisonburg. • $1,800,000 from L. White A Company of Fredericksburg. At a meeting that night to review the proposals, architect Bob Simpson said that bids frequently come in over cost projections. “Generally, we consider within 10 percent of the estimate to be veiy close.” (In this instance, the cost was estimated and the expansion project approved by the State Department of Education in June 1984. It then went on the waiting list for a low interest state literary fund loan which was not awarded until this past December, two and a half years after the projection of construction costs.) To attempt to bring the bid down to the amount of the literary loan, Mr. Simpson said he will meet with Mr. Baughan, the low bidder, to review his proposal. “I’ll get his ideas on what can be taken out of the contract. A contractor can often come up with things an architect won’t think of as far as saving money goes.” Generally, a bid price can be cut by five to eight percent through this review process, the architect said. “Then, if we can’t get down far enough,/ we’ll look at revising the plans, changing the design.” He assured the School Board that this type of negotiating with the low bidder is "standard practice” and poses no legal problems by failing to include the other bidders. Neither do the negotiations obligate the board to accept Baughan Construction’s bid, noted Superintendent Robert Estabrook. “This is for clarification, not for commitment.” And should the negotiations Rappahannock Newt photo/Lou Hitter THE ENVELOPE, PLEASE! Superintendent Robert Estabrook (second from left) opens one of three sealed bids received from contractors for the RCHS capital expansion project. At the opening were, from left, Mark Johnson (Baughan Construction, Luray), Mr. Estabrook, Peyton Baughan (Baughan Construction), Bob Simpson (Smithey & Boynton, architect for the project), and Tom Campbell, assistant superintendent. be unsuccessful in bringing the bid down to the amount of the literary loan, no changes in design would be made except at the School Board’s direction, Mr. Estabrook added. ‘That’s the prerogative of this board,” he stressed. “If we have to consider paring down anything, I do not think it should be in the academic area,” said Chairman Beverly Massie. “That should be our prime concern... Educational needs should be first and foremost,” she said, her position seconded strongly by the rest of the < School Boferd. can’t go back to Richmond at this point and ask for more literary ban money for this project,” said Mr. Estabrook. “But it is possible to ask the Board of Supervisors to assume another type of loan (to cover the shortfall),” he said, quickly adding “possible but not probable.” He also noted that an appropriation for a portion of the construction cost could be included in the School Board’s 1987-88 budget but conceded that odds for this approach gaining approval from the supervisors are not good, either. (Continued on Page 14) Break-downs plague both county schools The word that bids for the high school expansion project exceed the project’s $1.5 million literary loan allocation wasn’t the only fiscally disturbing news that the Rappahannock School Board received at last Thursday’s special meeting. Superintendent Robert Estabrook’s rundown on motors turned out to be a report on motor rundown - expensive motor rundown. He recalled that primary and back-up motors for the high school’s heat circulating pump died within two days of each other during a particularly cold spell three weeks ago. Then during the loss of electrical power that accompanied last week’s wet snow, the motor that runs the compressor for the high school’s heating system burned up: Early the following morning, the superintendent continued, a call came in reporting no heat in the elementary school. With maintenance supervisor Wilson Atkins in the hos pital, “that left Ray Charles and He-, len Keller to handle it!” Mr. Estabrook said, in facetious reference to his and assistant superintendent Tom Campbell’s lack of mechanical expertise. Trying to figure out what was wrong, the duo sought help from Allie Huff, supervisor at the school bus shop garage. “He can at least tell a motor from a door,” the •uperintendnent joked. It turned out the same drag from power loss that burned up the motors on the high school’s heating system had also put out of commission three of the four water pumps in the elementary school’s heating system AND had blown its electrical control circuits, Mr. Campbell reported. In addition, the assistant superintendent said, electricians have discovered that the pneumatic controls for the heating systems in both buildings “need work - a lot of (Continued on Page 14) Rappahannock Round-up / //Inside Superintendent Estabrook presents 1987*88 school budget... p. 3 Record field expected for Rappahannock Point-to-Point... p. 10 Government at a glance • Water and Sewer Authority: Thursday, March 5,8 p.m., Courthouse. • School Board: Tuesday, March 10,7:30 p.m., RCES Library; public comment on 198788 budget, regular monthly meeting. • Town Council: Wednesday, March 11,8 p.m., Courthouse.

Supervisors go ahead with two landfill applications By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock New* Staff Writer It’s official now: the county has made formal application to the state for approval of two sites as sanitary landfills and set a public hearing on both for April 8. The action came at the recommendation of engineer Leonard Joyce who concluded, on the basis of geoseismic tests, that both the 100-acre Stover tract off Route 639 near Amissville and the Kuhn farm, 440 acres off Rt. 211 owned by Lee Albrecht, “warrant further investigation.” itobert Forman, district chief for the Department of Solid Waste Management, is scheduled to make preliminary inspections with a geologist next Monday. At their meeting March 2, the supervisors had no difficulty in deciding IF they wanted to hold a public hearing on the two landfill applications, but WHEN was another matter. Under the state’s landfill permitting regulations, the local governing body is notified upon receipt of an application, whether that application comes from the governing body itself (as in this case) or from a private firm or individual. Then the governing body has (1) five days to decide whether to have a public hearing and (2) 30 days in which to hold the hearing and make a recommendation to the state. At issue is simply whether the proposed landfill site meets zoning regulations and complies with the locality’s comprehensive land use plan. The state’s Department of Solid Waste Management is solely responsible for determining the site’s physical suitability for a landfill and granting the actual permit. In addition, the state may grant the permit even if the local governing body recommends against approval. The state’s notification of receipt of the applications came Feb. 27, giving the board until March 27 for a hearing. “I believe it’s a mistake to hold a public hearing before we get the results of the drillings and soil tests,” maintained Supervisor Charles Estes. “Why infuriate the community without knowing whether the site is suitable?” “Pete has a valid point there,” agreed Supervisor A1 Henry, who represents Jackson District where the two potential landfill sites are located. “But if we have the drilling done in March, it may be two or three weeks before we get a report back. We may not be able to meet the 30-day time limit.” “We have to hold that hearing within 30 days,” affirmed Supervisor Newbill Miller. Chairman Hubert Gilkey pointed out that state regulations do not require that a hearing be held at all. “Yes, but that would mean we have no objections,” Mr. Miller said. “We must hold a public hearing to see if we do have objections. But I absolutely agree with Pete. It’s wrong (to raise the controversy that inevitably accompanies a landfill proposal) without knowing whether the site is even suitable. There were wounds inflicted over the Fodderstack site that won’t heal for years!” If drilling begins this week, results may be available within the 30-day limit, noted John McCarthy, administrative assistant to the board. . But engineer Leonard Joyce cautioned against proceeding before receiving preliminary approval from Mr. Forman, who will inspect both sites next Monday. “You should get his concurrence before you spend any money on drilling,” he advised the supervisors. According to Mr. Joyce, information on soil depth will be known the same day as the borings are done. However, he acknowledged that it could take two to three weeks to get results from lab tests on soil permability, a critical factor in determining site suitability for solid waste disposal. “I think it’s a matter of credibility. I think we lose credibility if we neglect to hold a public hearing and make a recommendation to the state,” maintained Mr. Miller. “And we sell our credibility short if we have a public hearing without first getting information (on the land’s suitability for a dump),” Mr Estes added. Suggesting that the county make “a good faith effort” to meet the state’s 30-day time limit, Chairman Gilkey proposed that the board tell the Department of Solid Waste Management that yes, a public hearing will be held but only as soon as test data is received. By consensus, the rest of the board members agreed, and following a long closed door session, Mr. McCarthy announced that the public hearing on the two sites is set for April 8 at 7 p.m. Rappahannock Newt photo/Cindy Mahan RAPPAHANNOCK’S PANTHER JV basketball team is definitely number one, taking the Bull Run District title in a runaway victory over second-ranked Central High. i Panther JV wins title By LOU HATTER Rappahannock Newa Staff Writer Fans of the Rappahannock County High School basketball program had a busy week, as both the Panthers’ Varsity and Junior Varsity teams took a shot at Bull Run District titles. The Rappahannock Junior Varsity team, which finished the regular season with a 19-1 record, going undefeated in 16 district games, rolled to the district championship, defeating Central High School 54-45 in the title game Saturday night. Bull Run District has never had a team go undefeated in district competition before. Central offered the Panthers hot competition in the championship matchup - the Falcon JV had finished the year 14-2 in district play, their only two losses coming against Rappahannock. Rappahannock’s JV got off to a slow start in the title game, looking a bit nervous and cold as the Falcons jumped out to an early lead. “They started off hot, hitting on their shots,” explained Coach Frank Clemson. “But we kept our composure, kept in contention.” After calling a time out with about one minute left in the half, Rappahannock pulled to within two points as the halftime buzzer sounded. As the third quarter began, the Panthers came out looking for points, attacking the ball and showing the intensity and heart which marked their entire season. After one unsuccessful shot, which resulted in a turnover, the Panthers regained the ball after preventing a Falcon basket. They gunned for the basket, tying the score. “That got the team fired up,” Coach Clemson said. The Panthers outscored the Falcons 20 to 5 in the (Continued on Page 10)

Cub Scouts hold Blue and Gold banquet By DEBORAH FLINCHUM »^.hwBnrt New 8p«d«l Writer The Rappahannock Cub Scout Pack 123 held their Bhie and Gold banquet Feb. 27, when 80 scouts and parents shared a potluck dinner, received awards, eiyoyed a skit by the Webeloes, and participated in a Pinewood Derby. Twenty-three scouts from the Washington and Sperryville dens raced cars, which were made from a kit given to each scout. With their parents help, the scouts worked on the car's construction for a month. Each car which entered the race was registered and weighed. Cars were raced in groups of three. Starter Julian Brown placed the cars at the beginning of the track and Rufus Baines judged the winners as they reached the end of the 40-foot track constructed by Bert Gilkey. In the den competition first and second place winners were Robb DeBergh and Nathan Flinchum - Washington Den; Jason Brown and Matthew Payne - Sperryville Den; Paul Brown and Leif Anderson - Webeloes. In the pack competition, Jason Brown and Robb DeBergh had the best looking cars. The final race pitted Paul Brown’s winning car against Jenks Hobson’s 30-yearold car made when he was a Boy Scout. (Youth prevailed.) Pack Leader Sandra Brown and Den Leader Roger Flinchum informed each contestant that they would receive a Pinewood Derby ribbon for participation.

ARB approves two permits By LOU HATTER BaMMhamwcfc Nm SUIT Writer A proposal from the Rappahannock County Courthouse restoration committee to install two lanterns at the front of the county courthouse in Washington was approved by the town’s Architectural Review Board at its regular monthly meeting Feb. Acting as the renovation committee’s agent, Evelyn Willis appeared before the ARB to explain the committee’s application for a Certificate of Appropriateness. Mrs. Willis, who is also a member of the ARB, disqualified herself from consideration of the committee’s application. The board’s remaining two members, Carol Miller and Jim Thomasson, reviewed the application for two reproduction Colonial Bedford wall-bracket brass lanterns, one to be installed on each side of the courthouse’s front door. Mrs. Willis told the board each would be approximately 40 inches tall, with a globe about two feet high. She requested that the committee be given some flexibility as to the exact size of the fixtures, since the Connecticut craftsman who is designing the lanterns apparently is concerned that if they are too large they may be damaged by strong winds. “It’s an appropriate fixture in terms of style,” Mr. Thomasson said. “My concern is that they not be too small.” “The front of the building is massive,” agreed Mrs. Miller. “You need to keep them big because of the size of the building.” Mrs. Miller also asked if the lanterns would be equipped with an automatic device to turn them on at dusk. "It would be nice to drive by and see the lights lit - it adds to the front of the building.” “The supervisors want that,” Mrs. Willis replied. “It will be done with a timer, if the Historical Society will agree.” Mr. Thomasson moved that the application be approved, “subject to a final design determining the size of the lanterns.” Mrs. Miller concurred, and the application was approved unanimously. Following the board’s approval of the committee’s apphcav: tip^,I(Mrsc. .Will&ftrain took her spat as aipcmber (jfthe.ARB. . GoIdsijyJtn Christopher Gpodine, who operates ashop on Main Street across from the Clopton House, appeared before the ARB to seek approval for a sign, now hanging above the front door of his shop. “It’s a nice sign, appropriate to colonial America,” Mr. Thomasson commented. In addition to Mr. Goodine’s name, the sign also bears the symbol of his craft, which was a common practice in the colonial period. Mr. Goodine said that his only complaint about it is that “no one sees it.” He said that he has taken down the light which illuminated the sign, because “it doesn’t fit there, and I’m not in the shop after dark.” He said that in the future he may replace the light with another, in a different spot, which will fit in better. He also told the board that he is considering another sign, along the north side of the building between the two windows. “When you’re sitting at the stop sign, all you see is the side of the building . . . It’s not very inviting.” “It’s such an attractive building,” Mrs. Willis replied. “It makes you want to see what’s inside.” Mr. Goodine’s application was approved unanimously. In other action, the ARB: • Heard Mrs. Miller advise the board that, because of complaints she has received at the post office, the Postal Service may apply for a Certificate of Appropriateness for signs designating five of the parking places in front of the post office as reserved for post office customers. • Mrs. Miller requested that Mayor Dean Morehouse consider purchasing a tape recorder to record the proceedings at public meetings. “In sticky situations, it might come in handy,” she said. “If you keep good minutes... the end result is what counts,” Mayor Morehouse replied. “It’s a sad commentary on the state of affairs that recorders are necessary.” • Heard a request from Mrs. Willis to purchase another book, House of Boughs, and a subscription to Historic Preservation magazine, to add to the reference collection at the county library. Mrs. Willis added that the ARB will gratefully accept any donations of reference books or magazines relating to historic preservation and restoration. The collection will be available to the public at the Rappahannock County Public Library. • Noted that an application for a Certificate of Appropriateness from contractor Peter Kreyling for work being done on a house on Mt. Salem Ave. was to be considered, but that because he was , not in attendance po action could betaken. i°'; • Authorized the ARB secretary, Mr. Thomasson, to notify ^ the zoning office in writing of the ARB’s approval of the permit fee schedule adopted by Town Council. • Reviewed a draft of the proposed revisions to the town’s Historic District Ordinance submitted by zoning administrator John McCarthy.

Of that total, $218,366 comes from programs funded totally with federal and state “flow-through” money: $35,298 for vocational education, $60,000 for school lunch subsidies, $80,742 for Chapter I entitlement, $30,326 in supplemental special education receipts and $12,000 for Chapter II entitlement. In addition, another $66,469 collected at the two county schools in text book rentals is proposed to “flow through” to pay for new dictionaries, physics, health and math books scheduled to be adopted this year. With these balanced receipts and expenditures subtracted, the proposed budget’s bottom line stands at $3,432,210 - a 13 percent increase over this year’s school spending for the same items. The superintendent’s budget includes: • A 12 percent average increase in teachers’ salaries which will bring the starting pay from $14,912 (129th among Virginia’s 136 school divisions this year) to $16,358 and up the compensation for 25 years experience at the top of the scale from $22,964 to $25,191. • A salary hike of $3,515 for administrators, including the superintendent, assistant superintendent, special services coordinator and principals and assistant principals at both schools. • 10 percent raises plus $1 a day for every 10 years experience for classified personnel (aides, bus drivers, custodians and secretarial staff). • 14 percent raises for the school board office’s administrative secretary and bookkeeper. Rappahannock’s share of the ex peruses for the Piedmont Vocational Technical Center will go up 18 percent next year, from $129,662 to $162,874, a reflection of the 20 percent decline in federal and state support for vocational education, the superintendent explained. Other nuqor increases come in capital outlay for ftirniture and equipment ($31,680 for the high school addition, $19,295 for the high school unrelated to the building project, $6,836 for the elementary school and $2,375 for the central office); the school lunch program ($10,000 to cover possible shortfalls in this formerly self-supporting program); transportation ($49,000 for two new school buses and $9,000 for a used pick-up truck). The superintendent proposes no increases in instructional supplies for the high school or elementary school, the county’s contribution toward the fringe benefit of health insurance for school employees or the supplemental duty pay scale for teachers. In addition, Mr. Estabrook allows for only modest increases in bus repairs, fuel and maintenance. The last category is upped by just 10 percent from the current year in his proposed budget. The repairs to the heating systems at both school are offset by the $36,000 expended in 1986-87 for a new coal stoker for the high school’s furnace. Only a handful of parents and teachers attended Tuesday’s special session and there were few questions from the School Board members. Next Tuesday, before the board’s regular business, the public will be given an opportunity to respond to the superintendent’s proposed budget. Then the School Board will begin its line by line review on March 17, with adoption to come at either that special session or a meeting the following week. The Board of Supervisors has asked to have the proposed 1987-88 school budget by March 27. Fire safely clinic planned The annual Virginia Fire Prevention Clinic will be held March 30April 3 at the Donaldson Brown Center, Virginia Polytechnic Institute, Blacksburg. The agenda includes discussion of state water control board tank regulations, sprinkler plans, public fire education and the building maintenance code. The program is open to anyone interested in fire prevention/protection but is especially beneficial to fire and building officials, industrial safety officers, architects and engineers. Participants in the course will re ceive continuing education credits for attending the program if they qualify. The Department of Fire Programs and the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development will accept the clinic for re-certification of fire and building officials. The Virginia Fire Prevention Clinic is sponsored by the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development and the Virginia Fire Prevention Association. Tuition for the five-day event is $85 or $18 for each day attending. For more information, call (70S) 9615182. UiugjiiUii |Top Round |Steak..................$2.19 ».

Wakefield students attend Model Congress Twelve Wakefield School students will represent the Virginia Congressional delegation at the Harvard Model Congress to be held in Boston, Mass., from March 6-10. Delegations of high school students firom all 60 states will attend this congress organized yearly by the Government Department of Harvard University. A unique feature of the Harvard Model Congress is that student delegates represent actual Congressmen and are given the same committee assignments as those Congressmen. Several months before the congress, students were sept,position papers and briefings prepared by Harvard undergraduates, .jo advance of the opening conference the student delegates must then prepare their own position papers of their Congressmen on the issues before their committees. In addition, students are expected to come to their committees with working bills, and must, before arrival, master the Congressional rules of procedure, including the table of motions. In order to learn more about the views of the members they will repr resent, the Wakefield delegates journeyed to Washington last week and met with their Congressmen or their aides. While at the Capitol the students also attended a session of Congress, watching the law-making process from the galleries of the House and Senate. Several high government officials will be present at the Harvard Congress, including Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger, who will make the opening address to the student delegates. While in the Boston area, the students will be given a special tour .^ Harvard University and will have sin opportunity to meet with University admissions officials. The Wakefield delegation includes Sean Bennett (Sen. Warner), Julie Whitworth (Sen. Trible), Sally Miller (Rep. Bateman, R-l), Jennifer Shanks (Rep. Pickett, D-2), Heather Kramer, (Rep. Bailey, R3), Matt Tucker (Rep. Sisisky, D-4), Theo Larrieu (Rep. Daniel, D-5), Tobias Dengel (Rep. Olin, D-6), Carolyn Shaw (Rep. Slaughter, R-7), Robby Roberts (Rep. Parris, R-8), Merron Booth (Rep.

Audit Bureau of Circulation. J THURSDAY, MARCH 5,1987 Editorial Let’s share our lesson Rappahannock's supervisors have learned a painful lesson in trying to function under the state’s new regulations for handling applications for sanitary landfills: the regulations are backwards. Under the regulations* time frame, a local government that wants to hear from the people must do so without having answers to the questions that the people can be expected to ask. And let’s face it, consideration of a site, any site, for a dump means war with at least the neighboring landowners. It’s a war worth fighting if the locality wins a means to dispose of its solid waste, but under the state’s new regulations, that war may be waged unnecessarily over a piece of property totally inadequate for solid waste disposal. As it now stands, when the state’s Department of Solid Waste Management receives an application for a sanitary landfill, the local government in whose jurisdiction the site lies must be notified immediately. We have no quarrel with that requirement. It prevents a repeat of thd sorry chain of events that resulted in approval for a landfill without local government’s knowledge, much less concurrence. Once that notification is received, the local government has five days to decide whether to hold a public hearing. The hearing is not required, and should it be declined, the state deems that the load government has no objections to the proposed landfill. We’d rather see the hearing be mandatory and we’d rather see the state bound by the local government’s decision instead of just advised by it. But we can accept this section of the regulations as they’re now written. « Our quarrel — and that of the Bdard of Supervisors — comes in the timeallowed for scheduling that hearing. It must be held within 30 days, insufficent time for completion of the soil analyses which determine whether the property can be used for a landfill. We understand that, under the state’s regulations, the Board of Supervisors is supposed to judge the proposed dump site only from a land use and zoning standpoint. That’s the way it’s supposed to go, in theory. But try telling that to a hearing room of angry and worried landowners who want to know if the landfill will pose a threat to their water supply. The state asks for theory; the people want facts. Rappahannock’s supervisors know this. They held their public hearing on the Lee Patrnership’s application for a landfill on the Fodderstack Road just beyond Washington’s town limits. “The wounds inflicted over the Fodderstack site won’t heal for years,” as one supervisor said. And it was all for nothing, as engineers found the tract - after soil testing and analysis - “unusable.” Rappahannock’s supervisors may be the only local governing body in the state that knows the problem built in to the new permitting regulations since they are the first to seek approval for a landfill under those regulations. Knowing the problem, the supervisors should seek to eliminate it. They should ask their representatives in Virginia’s General Assembly to introduce legislation which would at least change the time frame to allow 90 days for the public hearing: time to get soil tests done; time to get answers to the questions that the people aren’t supposed to ask at this hearing, but do; time to learn whether it will be a landfill war worth fighting. Changes made to burning law Considering the weather we have been having the past month, it is easy to forget about the upcoming forest fire danger. But just as sure as March, April, and May will arrive, so will the spring forest fire season. With the longer days and wanner temperatures, the winter snows are quickly forgotten. During the better part of March, April, and May, trees have not yet leafed out, and therefore, sunlight and wind bear down directly on the forest floor. Under these conditions woodland can become very dry within a matter of hours. The recent snows have delayed the debris burning that many people wanted to do in January and February. The Division of Forestry anticipates a substantial increase in brush and debris burning once the snow is gone and things dry up a little. This debris burning is responsible for almost one-third of all wildfires in Virginia. That is the reason for the 4 p.m. Burning Law and the recent changes to that law. The new law states that NO OPEN AIR BURNING CAN BE DONE WITHIN 300 FEET OF WOODLAND, BRUSHLAND, OR FIELD CONTAINING DRY GRASS OR OTHER INFLAMMABLE MATERIAL CAPABLE OF SPREADING FIRE, EXCEPT BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 4 P.M. and MIDNIGHT. In other words, you must be 300 feet from any type of vegetation or field that can spread a fire. The law applies to any open air burning from March 1 to May 15. After 4 p.m., the temperature and wind have decreased and the relative humidity has gone up. Burning under these conditions is safer, but not totally safe. If you have trash or debris to burn, the Division of Forestry recommends waiting until a damp, wet day even though it may be after 4 p.m. For more information on the forest fire laws you can contact Buck Kline at the Madison office (9485341) or Tippy Jenkins at 967-8837. Rappahannock Heritage ■UppahMMck Newt pkoM/Loa ffaner ROSE HILL NESTLES against the Blue Ridge Mountains, its windows glinting in Monday’s early morning sunlight. The Great Communicator? By EUGENE MCCARTHY Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer Public figures have been subjected by history, or by the press, to one word or phrase characterizations. There was Pepin “The Short,” and Charles "The Bald.” Henry was "The Confessor,” and Ivan "The Terrible.” In naming current public figures it may well be wise for the press to proceed carefully, to avoid and to reject any early or sweeping characterizations. Senator Walter Mondale, as a candidate for President, for example, was put in jeopardy of such characterization when his press secretary announced that Walter intended to elucidate the American, people, thus opening the way to hia’ becoming known as “The Great Elu* delator.” Lyndon Johnson, had he been careless, might have become known as "The Great Manipulator,” Eisenhower as "The Great Procrastinator,” Richard Nixon "The Dissimulator,” and Jimmy Carter "The Great Vadllator.” Taking their inspiration from the historical label of Abraham Lincoln as "The Great Emandpator,” the press, early in Ronald Reagan’s first term as President, began calling him “The Great Communicator.” What Ronald was communicating was never made very dear either by the President or the press, but both seemed sure that he was communicating. The President seemed pleased with his title. Years ago, Marshall McLuhan, one of the first social philosophers to give serious thought to the impact of television on sodety, concluded that content in television communication was all but irrelevant, and that “The Media was the Message.” Ronald may well be the incarnation of the McLuhan observation; namely, the communicator who is the communication. In antidpation of the President’s recent State of the Union message, political experts, communication specialists and commentators advised the public that the substance of the speech would not be important, but that they would respond to how the President looked and sounded. Graphics and sonics would be of more significance than the ideas that might be induded in the address. The judgment of the experts after the speech, not quite a consensus but something like a general condusion, was that the President looked good but that he had not sounded good; that the overall experience was somewhat like watching a television news program and listening to it, or trying to, when the picture was good but the sound was not. In the President’s case, whether he is better with a good picture and a bad sound or with a good sound and a less-than-good picture (if one can or must make the choice), has not yet been made the matter of thoughtful observation. The quality of television reception in Hawlin Hollow, where my house is situated, is not predictably good, especially in the early evening about the time the network news comes on. When Walter Cronkite was the anchorman on CBS, I would as a rule watch him when the sound was bad and the picture good. Even without sound Walter was acceptable. The soundness of my judgment was confirmed when I read that Walter was the most popular of the evening newscasters among the deaf. When the picture was bad but the sound good, I chose John Chancellor, when he was still the anchorman on NBC. When both the sound and picture were bad, I went to ABC, as the news on that network was about as clear when sound and picture were confused as it was when both were clear. I have not worked out satisfactory ground rules for choosing among the current evening anchormen on the nugor networks. As for the President, I think he is best when the picture is good and the sound good - good to be heard but not listened to. Because of the events affecting Iran and Nicaragua, and in a secondary way a number of other countries, many persons listened to the State of the Union message hoping for some explanation of what was going on. Listening to a Reagan, however, can be distracting. One may be distracted trying to recall the source of his quotations: From former Democratic presidents? From old Gary Cooper movies? From the Constitution? From the Bible? If one is into the study of the influence of speech writers, the distraction would be in trying to figure what parts of the speech came from Pat Buchanan, or from other speechwriters who, according to reports, compete for Presidential acceptance - or for that of the First Lady. Beyond the State of the Union message, whatever may be the cause, communications between the President and the country seem to be getting a little blurred. The President may need a new title before his term ends, possibly “The Great Obfuscator,” whether he obfuscates on purpose, or simply because his public statements reflect the state of his own mind and the condition of his administration.

DAVID SHEFFIELD President, Amissville VFD . i .. 971..,. Help offered to council To the editor As a Rappahannock property owner who is presently building a retirement house on S.R. 636,1 read your paper weekly with interest. Of particular interest to me is the problem facing the Town Council regarding the old water distribution system. As a retiree of the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission, which provides water and sewer service to over a million customers in Prince George’s and Montgomery County, Maryland, I would like to pass on the financing techniques initiated by the lateT. Howard Duckett who not only founded the WSSC in 1918, but also the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission and the Prince George’s Bank which became Suburban Trust Company (which is now part of Sovran Bank). Having served as design engineer, materials engineer and research engineer, I learned a good bit about materials and underground corrosion of ferrous materials by galvanic action. The article stated that the Washington water system was 50 years old and that the acidic nature of local soils is corroding the galvanized steel pipes. That corrosion generally occurs in any ferrous materials placed in a medium (such as soil or water) since galvanic action (which is often mistakenly called electrolysis) causes current flow from one point in the pipe to another. Any time current leaves a metal to flow elsewhere, it takes ions of the metal with it. In time, this is simply corrosion (or tuberculation — same thing). Galvanized pipe was often used for underground water pipe and indoor plumbing before World War II. Since that time copper has been found superior for {dumbing. Any underground galvanized pipe system with 50 years’ service has served its useful life and any further patching is wasted money. The problem the Town Council faces is where to get the money to reconstruct the system. I know the Virginia state government has “paid as it goes” whereas WSSC has always issued revenue bonds to pay for any new construction, which is supplemented by a nominal ad valorem tax and the retirement of the bonds. Operation of the water supply and the mainter nance of the system are paid for by water bills. One component of the water bill is the bond repayment, which is based on a front foot assessment charge on every property abutting the water main in the street. This includes government property, churches, etc. Everybody must pay for his share. Front foot rates vary from residential to commercial to agricultural. Quoting the article that there were 230 residents in Washington, statistics would lead me to believe you have about 100 houses plus commercial buildings. Let me assume that you have about 20,000 linear feet of frontage on both sides of all your streets. This would indicate about 10,000 linear feet of water pipe locally, plus your well and supply main to the town. I am “guesstimating” the cost of an entirely new (non-corrosive) system is about $400,000. If you assessed the commercial properties twice the amount you assessed residential, and the agricultural rate was half the residential rate, the following would result: Assuming the town sold $400,000 worth of tax-free municipal bonds paying 7 percent, with a term of repayment of 20 years, the repayment of principal and interest would be about $3,100 per month. Divided equally by 20,000 accessible feet, the cost would be about $1.16 per foot per month. Assuming a 50-foot frontage, the front foot assessment would be $8 per month, or $96 per year for the 20-year life of the bonds. Now, of course, when you get into higher rates for commercial and lower rates for residential and agricultural, it would not be so hard on the homeowner or farmer. A good water supply would also stimulate business expansion if desired in the town. If you control the water, you control the development. This letter may be too much to digest in one try, but I would make myself available as an interested Rappahannock landowner, to help in any way. You might also obtain federal funds resulting from the recent “Clean Water Act” passed by Congress over the President’s veto. I suggest you contact your Congressman on this matter. C. L.

SID AND MARGARET GOTTLEIB Folk dancing around the world On March 13, at 8 p.m., Sid and Margaret Gottieib will discuss and demonstrate folk dancing from around the world at the Gay Street Theatre in Washington. This fourth program of the Rappahannock County Library's Second Friday series is again being presented in cooperation with the Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community (RAAC). The Gottleibs have been avid folk dance enthusiasts since the 1950s, but their interest in and study of this form of community expression has continued and increased and they bring to their audiences a conviction that all who wish to dance can do so. Although they always emphasize that this dance form requires no partners and therefore does not necessitate coupling-up to be enjoyed, the Gottleibs admit that continued enjoyment of this recreational activity may have that effect. The Gottleibs are, in fact, testimony to that truth. They met in California at a dance. Sid had been introduced to folk dancing in Wisconsin and carried his enthusiasm with him to California. There, Margaret had also discovered folk dancing, and through it they met. Among their many other activities and pursuits, they have continued to maintain a strong interest in this art form. - The Gottleibs have studied this form of cultural expression in many countries, have contributed to books and records on the subject, and Slaughter’s rep to visit Seventh District Repi resentative D. French Slaughter Jr. will send his District Representative, Jane Clatterbuck, to Rappahannock County on Wednesday, March 11. Mrs. Clatterbuck will be available to talk with constituents who have problems of a Federal nature or who wish to express their opinions on national legislative issues, or simply to discuss matters of concern. She will be in Rappahannock County at the Courthouse from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. founded dance groups in many of the communities in which they have lived. Their motivation springs from both their o|wn enthusiasm and a desire to shar^ this form of creative expression, j which brings people together from all walks of life and helps them to share an experience which, simply put, is fun for all who participate. In describing the program, the Gottleibs said, “We plan to demonstrate short excerpts from some 20 or 30 folk dances in order to illustrate, in a systematic manner, how the intricate-appearing steps are simply a variation on walking. We will try to show how small differences in foot, arm and body movements can be made to reflect subtle aspects of rhythm, style, mood and cultural set. “Some of the countries whose folk dance heritage will be illustrated are the USSR, England, Sweden, Poland, USA, Italy, Israel, Wales, Yugoslavia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Turkey, Scotland and Denmark. “Some of the dances we will demonstrate to illustrate diffferent cultural aspects of folk dancing are the schottische, waltz, polka, Laendler, Mazurka, Hambo, Kola and Hora, among others.” The program, which should be of interest to the entire community, is free of charge. Refreshments will be served. Give the people issues, and you will not have to sell your souls for campaign funds. — William E. Borah Jazz will endure just as long as people hear it through their feet in- i stead of their brains. — J.P. Sousa This was the news In bygone Rappahannock times 20 YEARS AGO RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS From the March 9,1967 edition The Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors met Friday at the courthouse for the regular March meeting. A request was submitted to the Board for the placing of a mobile home in the Peola Mills area.

But every Sunday found him in church, sitting on the same pew, attempting to go through the motions of worship in harmony with the other worshipers. Yet, his every act of worship was a strain carried out in his world of silence. A close friend wrote on a piece of paper and handed it to the old man. He read, "Why do you go to church? You can't hear a word that is said." Calling on his broken and faltering English remembered from his hearing days, he said, “To let people know whose side I’m on!" He continued, “At worship in church I may not hear much, but I FEEL MUCH. I feel what’s happening around me; the music's rhythm touches me; the prayers hold me close; the smiles on people’s faces during the sermon and the intensity I sense from them, give me a feeling of God's presence.” Worshiping in church gives a feeling that no other expression of God’s presence approaches. No wonder the writer of Hebrews instructed; "Forsake not the asse mb lying of ourselves together.” (Hebrews 10:25) _ Copyright 1967, Katotar-WHkams Newspaper Services. P O Box 8005.

Expires: 3-21-87 COUPON COUPON COUrON Depression not only adult problem By JOHN BORGENS Rappthuuwck New* Contributinc Writer Did you know that children and adolescents may also suffer from depression? They may have the same symptoms as adults, yet some other symptoms may be masked. The underlying feelings of sadness, helplessness and despair may be camouflaged. The depressed youngster may see himself as bad, unacceptable or inadequate. He defends himself against this undesirable self-image by denial and/or acting out behaviors such as drug abuse, truancy or incorrigibility. Sometimes, the emotional pain is defended against by distancing defenses. The class clown or troublemaker may be putting on a false facade to cover uncertainty and selfdoubt. The adolescent who feels incompetent or worthless may try to hide it and be successful by being rebellious. Or, he may hide his anguish by being aggressive and getting into fights. Males tend to be more outwardly aggressive while females are more prone to inwardly aggressive behaviors such as promiscuity. Because these behaviors make people angry it is also hard to recognize the pain they mask. The adolescent’s behavior keeps them at arm’s length from people. The teen-age years are an emotional roller coaster for both parents and adolescent. The teenager’s outlook may swing from elation to despair in a matter of days or even hours. Their behavior is often impulsive. Researchers have found that certain situations are more likely to trigger underlying emotional problems in youngsters. Some of these situations include: 1) Loss of a loved one; a parent, friend, boyfriend or girlfriend; 2) A major disappointment or humiliation, either real or imagined; 3) Lack of commuhication, especially with parents, about feelings of unhappiness, loneliness, isolation, failure and frustration; 4) Inability to compete, such as in school, a job, or in society; 5) Lack of a stable family life, such as being Hilts have son Mr. and Mrs. John Hitt of Amissville are the parents of a son, John Francis III, bom Feb. 10 at Fauquier Hospital. He weighed 8 lbs. 11 oz. Proud grandparents are Mr. and Mrs. Johnny Hitt and Mr. and Mrs. Jim Magee, all of Amissville. Great-grandparents are Mrs. Omega Hitt and Mr. and Mrs. Stan Magee of Amissville and Mrs. Bertha Grigsby of Castleton. rdflliLY r6cUb H-— I part of a home environment disrupted by tensions, discord, or alcohol and/or drug abuse. Mental health professinalls have isolated some of the most common and noticeable behaviors that may indicate depression: radical personality changes such as persistent sadness, loss of interest in usual activities, feelings of guilt, worthlessness, and helplessness along with social withdrawl, noticeable nuyor changes in sleeping or eating patterns, falling grades, difficulty in concentrating, violent or rebellious behavior, and drug and/or alcohol abuse. Interestingly, physical symptoms such as stomachache, headache or fatigue may be an indication of depression as well. Often how an adult approaches the child or adolescent may be a key factor in preventing their despondency from worsening. Some adivce I often suggest is: • Don’t lose patience • Take threats seriously • Demonstrate your love • Talk it out whenever possible In situations where wanting signs continue, particularly over a period of days or weeks, professional help may be needed. Your family physician, minister or teacher can be a valuable source of help in referring a problem to the appropriate mental health specialist.

Salt: Throw it over your shoulder By SANDRA R. RICHARDSON Extcnikxi Agent, Home Economic* You can avoid the salt shaker and still be getting significant amounts of sodium from the condiments and sauces you use to flavor food. A sodium intake of 1,000 to 3,300 milligrams daily is considered adequate for a healthy adult. One teaspoon of salt contains 2,000 milligrams of sodium or almost twothirds of this daily amount. While the specific amount will vary somewhat according to brand, the U.S. Department of Agriculture lists the sodium content of many popular seasonings, condiments and relishes. Among sauces, soy sauce contains the most sodium with about 1,029 milligrams per tablespoon. One tablespoon of Teriyaki sauce r contains 690 milligrams, chili sauce 227, Worcestershire sauce 206, and barbecue sauce 130 milligrams. Brined pickles and olives are another source of sodium. One twoounce dill pickle has 928 milligrams of sodium and four green olives have 323 milligrams of sodium. Seasonings used in cooking also have sodium. One tablespoon of garlic salt contains 1,850 milligrams of sodium, onion salt 1,620 milligrams, meat tenderizer 1,750 milligrams and monosodium glutamate 492 milligrams. If your doctor has prescribed a low sodium diet of 1,000 to 2,000 milligrams per day, it will take careful selection of seasonings and condiments to avoid exceeding your sodium allotment. For flavor without extra sodium, stick to garlic or onion powders which contain only one milligram per teaspoon. To avoid hidden sources of sodium in your diet, read the nutrition labels on all commercially prepared condiments and seasonings. Few people are aware that commercial chili powder, for example, contains salt. Use a homemade mixture of various herbs and spices or flavor with lemon juice to keep even a low-sodium diet from being bland. For many years the citizens of Rappahannock County were fortunate to have Mrs. Flossie Williamson living in Woodville. She so willingly shared her knowledge of herbs as well as many of the recipes she developed. The Oak Forest Mixed Herb Vinegar and French Dressing reprinted here are two from her collection.

Sport District champs (Continued from Page 1) third quarter, opening a lead which remained unchallenged. “We proved we were the better team in the second half,” Coach Clemson added. In the fourth quarter, Coach Clemson said, his strategy was to protect the Panther lead, preventing turnovers and concentrating on looking for good shots. That strategy was evident as the Panthers passed the ball, running down the clock as they searched for an open man to try to open up their lead. ‘The whole team played well,” Coach Clemson said. ‘Teamwork has been a strong point all year . . . We didn’t rely on one person to pull through.” Each of the three times the Panthers faced the Falcons, he explained, Central keyed on a different player. “It didn’t matter; each time a different player came through.” “The team communicates well on the court. They showed a lot of poise and composure,” Coach Clemson said. “They’ve been doing that all year.” Doug Smith and Eric Dunn led the Panther scoring attack, and Mark Fells contributed several key jumpers in the second half. But, Coach Clemson emphasized, the entire team deserves high praise. “I didn’t stress winning,” he explained. “I concentrated on working together, the fundamentals, and playing hard and putting out.” If you do those things, the coach said, winning will come. “I told them: ‘I’ve had winning teams and losing teams — but I’ve never had a team out-fought’.” This year’s Panther JV was no exception, finishing the year 20-1, and going undefeated for the first time in Bull Run District history. For the varsity team, competition began with a quarter-final match against Page County last Wednesday night. The Panthers overcame their season-long “road jinx,” defeating the Page County Panthers 51-50 in a thrilling, down56 to-the-wire finish. ••••••-« * ; The entire game wis h se&daW>v ai imatch, with Page jumping to an early 6-0 lead, then watching as Rappahannock answered with nine straight points. Page County’s Allen Cloude hit a three-point play with 1:40 remaining in the first quarter to even the score at nine. Two baskets from each side left the score tied at 13 at the end of the first quarter. The second quarter saw both teams settling into a more controlled pattern. Page hit five unanswered points as the quarter began, but the Panthers fought back as Butch Foster held the home team in check on the boards. Matthew Settle came off the Panther bench during the second quar CONTRIBUTING TWO OF HIS 16 total points, Doug Smith hits a jumper during Rappahannock’s district championship victory over Central Saturday night. Teammate Eric Dunn (23) watches the shot. ter to. hit three long jumpers, and Rappahannock held the lead as the half ended, 24-23. Foster collected 10 rebounds during the first half. As the second half opened, Page County seemed to profit from the home court advantage, opening up a 36-28 lead as the third quarter wound down to the one minute mark. Keith Nauman hit six of his 17 total points during this scoring spree, and teammate Mike Keyser contributed a pair of jumpers. The Panthers’ scoring eye seemed to desert them during the third quarter, as they connected on fpe 'of ML shots during the period. &|(tqe clock wound down, however, Rappahannock cut the Page lead in half following two foul shots by Godfrey Freeman and a tip-in by Walter Frye at the buzzer. As the fourth quarter began, the Panthers forced several Page mistakes, turning the turnovers into key points which brought the game even. With 2:30 remaining on the clock, Rappahannock had pulled out to a 47-42 lead. Refusing to give in, however, Page fpught back, hitting, six straight points to regain a slim 48-47 lead with 1:20 to go. The Panthers teamwork paid off at that point, as they controlled the ball until Mat • Personal, local service and in-house appraisals mean no delays.

Putting the ball in play, Page headed downcourt but lost the ball out of bounds. Desperately attempting to regain control, Page fouled Settle, who sank both free throws to open the lead to three points with 20 seconds left. As the clock ran out, Tommy Warren hit a lay-up to put Page back within one point, but the Panthers emerged victorious, 51-50. ^ Friday night, unfortunately, saw , a different conclusion as the Panthers took' on Manassas Park in the Bull Run semi-final. The Cougars,' second-ranked in Class A state polls, easily defeated Rappahannock 87-69 to clinch a title berth, disappointing Panther partisans who hoped for a repeat of the season’s earlier upset of Manassas Park, who suffered their only district loss at the hands of the Panthers. It was not to be. The first quarter was a harbinger of the contest’s tone, as the Cougars outscored Rappahannock 22-15. Manassas Park saw 16 of those points scored by Eugene Baltimore with nine, and J. T. Johnson seven. The Panthers settled into a pattern in the second period, matching Manassas Park nearly point for point. Still, the Cougars held a 39-31 advantage as the teams headed for the locker room at halftime. The Cougars bounded from the dressing room to up the advantage to 49-37 after 2:30 had ticked off the third quarter dock. Rappahannock answered with three field goals, but Manassas Park matched the Panthers point for point. Then the Cougars sprang to a 16-point lead, scoring four unanswered points. The Panthers refused to give ground, managing to keep the margin dose and even whittling it to nine with three minutes left in the period. Then the Cougars broke the game open again, scoring five points on a combination of one Kevin Huber free throw, a jumper by John Lee and two more from the line by Eugene Baltimore, opening the lead to 62-48. As the fourth quarter began, Manassas Park held a 14-point lead, 68-64. In the first two minutes of the final quarter, Rappahannock dosed the gap to 11, 71-60, but Manassas Park broke away again on two Lee baskets and another Huber free throw, leading 76-60 with five minutes left. f ollowing a see-saw scoring surge which added four points to each side’s total, the Cougars called time out with a 80-64 advantage. As time ticked away, Rappahannock conceded the deficit, allowing the bench some playing time as the Panthers added five more points to finish the contest 87-69. Walter Frye connected for 18 Panther points, while Richard Tribino and Godfrey Freeman added 13 each. Lee hit a game-high 27 points for the Cougars and Baltimore contributed an additional 24. Matthew Settle added 11 points for Rappahannock, while also chalking up four steals. Fiye also had four swipes to his credit. Butch Foster and Godfrey Freeman led the Panthers under the boards, each picking up nine rebounds. Devon Moore followed closely with another eight rebounds. "They showed us why they’re ranked number two in the state,” Coach Gary Leake said after the game. “My guys played as well as they’ve played all season . . . They gave 110 percent the whole game. That’s what we asked for. I was pleased - very proud of the way thpyplayed. ^fV *■ * “Coming in, I wanted them (Manassas Park) to earn every point, dot' score any easy baskets. Our goal was not to be intimidated, to play aggressively and make them earn their scores... They worked for every point.” Part • of the difference in the game, Coach Leake added, lay in the free throw totals. From the line Manassas Park connected for 31 points, the Panthers managed only 13 charity points. “Take away the foul shots and you have a tie game.” Coach Leake had high praise for the senior members of the team, who concluded their high school careers on Friday night. “Walter Frye ended his varsity career with one of his best performances of the season, leading the team in scoring with 18 points . . . Richard Tribino and Devon Moore also finished their seasons with good games.” “We didn’t give them any easy points. I’d rather get beaten that way,” Coach Leake concluded. 1 LEATHERCOAI Taste The Difference Meals consisting of a variety of appetizers have become increasingly popular throughout die United States.

The course is well drained, and Mr/Carter said that the wind and sunny weather predicted to extend through the weekend has contributed to the course being in top condition. The Homer C. LeHew Turf Race has already drawn 40 entries, including 26 maidens and 14 winners. Mr. Cuter said he expects that the size of the field will require that it be run in three divisions, beginning at noon. A total of 10 races are scheduled for the day, beginning with the hunter pair race, which kicks off the r day’s competition at 10:30 a.m. More r<t&ian 30 riders have already entered that event. The pair race is run far two awards: fast time and optimum time. The winner of the fast time trophy will be the pair with the fastest time out and back over the threemile wooded course, which winds through the mountainous terrain, crossing the Thornton River twice. The optimum time trophy will go to the pair with the time closest to the time posted by a member of the Rappahannock Hunt, who will ride the course at hunting gait prior to the race. That time is sealed, and the object for the pairs competing for optimum time is to be closest to that sealed time. “It’s a real mental race,” Mr. Carter explained. The course is “gamey,” he said, “a well-known course.” It is a true fox-hunting race, with a stretch coming down off the mountain onto one of the timber jumps at a full gallop. “It should be a right thrilling race.” The Mary D.

Cookin N Lookin, third-place finisher last week, is also a possible starter. Rappahannock Huntsman Oliver Brown’s Roman Hunt, a veteran of the steep Rappahannock terrain, is also expected to give the field a run for its money. In the Mount Salem, Cinzano, a 14-year-old who last week left the competition in his muddy wake at Casanova, is expected to pace the ladies’ field in a 2Vb-mile timber test. Patti Cassel has entered two challengers to Cinzano, Avid Speaker and Splashy Lea. Eva Dahlgren, riding Ahwaz, and Kip Holloway, aboard Baron Zantippy, will also vie for the top women’s honors. Thirteen entries are set for the maiden hurdle race, 13/4 miles over hurdles. For juniors, there is a 2/3 mile race following the maiden hurdle. Ten horses and nine ponies are entered. The Durant Hill Hurdle is sixth on the day’s card. Essayer, who took top honors in the open hurdle at Casanova, will defend that title. A challenge will be mounted by Make the Move and News Special, third and fourth place finishers at Casanova. Foxhunters are next up, vying for honors in the William Noble Lane race, run at,two miles over the Rappahannnock Hunt’s home territory. 4 Bail’s Bluff ana Gala Blackjack, second and third respectively at Casanova, will lead the field. Hie Ben Venue, run for the Seven Corners Championship, caps the day’s timber racing. Entries include Satan’s Light, winner Sunday at Casanova, Marat, last year’s champion at Thornton Hill, Cookin ’N Lookin and Oriental Express. The last race of the day is the renowned hound race, open to all hound owners in Rappahannock Hunt territory and/or members of the Northern Virginia Foxhunters Association. About 100 foxhounds are expected to. participate in this wild event around a track dragged with fox scent. The pre-paid parking has already exceeded last year, he said, adding that there is ample parking and there should be no problem with the mud which plagued Casanova last weekend. “If the weather holds, we couldn’t ask for a better race day,” Mr. Carter concluded. “Come early, bring a lunch, and plan to stay late. It should be a great day.” For more information, call (703) 347-3611 or 788-4401. I Building?

Wines, who passed away March 10,1986. MY PAPA My poem is about my Papa's story, He devoted his life to preach God's glory; He brought his children up in a Christian way, For someday they might meet God on that glorious day; Papa had a dream that really came true, When he was ordained in July of 1972; He was given a Bible when he was ordained, Which he geve to Mark to cherish the same; "Preach My Word”, God said to him, "And tell my sheep to turn from their sin"; But many a night he lost much sleep; His heart was burdened for all . the lost sheep; Papa had many a dream, you see, One was to see his children heading heavenly. The other dream was as clear as sand, That his grandchildren would hold toGoashand. God called him home on March 10,1986, He would have no more pain and no longer be sick. Because Papa prayed for me with his heart and soul, I’ll make seeing him in heaven MY #1 GOAL! Written by your grandson, Harry Uoyd In memory of Rev. Edward T. Wines, who passed away March 10,1986. We loved him dearly while here on earth But he has left us for a better place, He still lives on in another dawn. Beyond all sorrow, fear, and pain Safely at home beyond life's quest, Living and moving among the blest. We are comforted, now, with this thought each day He is not dead...he is just away. His wife, Mazie Children, Betty, Audrey, Sandra, Randy & Debbie In memory of Rev. Edward T. Wines, who passed away March 10,1986. MY DAD I am so glad God gave me i my Dad, i Tokweroaadbeipjflwvfhenii : « I was bad; • He taught me about Jesub and how He will save, And if I accept Him a new home I can have; There were times when trials seem too heavy to bare, But I knew if I called he would always be there; The days ahead have been very sad, Since I have lost my Number One Dad; He left me with memories of joy and love, And the assurance someday I will meet him above.

RCHS bids (Continued from Page 1) "Let’s just hope there’s no actual space that has to be deleted (from the expansion project),” board member Nancy Reeve said. The architect estimated that the negotiations with the contractor could be completed in two weeks, in time for the board’s regular meeting on March 10. And if part of the capital outlay must be dropped in order to bring the cost to $1.5 million, no farther approval from Richmond is necessary, Mr. Simpson said. "You can delete and make changes within ARB (Continued from Page 3) town attorney Frank Reynolds. Mr. McCarthy told the board that the draft follows the same general format as the current ordinance, but that the language has been tightened and enforcement provisions have been added. He also told the ARB that the scope of the revision will require that the Town Council hold a public hearing to solicit comment on the proposed changes before the new ordinance can be enacted. the bask framework ... as long as you meet the State Department of Education guidelines.” “We’ve waited a long time. The closer you get, the closer you chomp at the bit!” said Mrs. Massie, adding that the board also has a meeting set for March 3 and could receive the architect’s report then. In a final word of assurance, Smithey and Boynton’s representative noted that Mr. Baughan had attended the bid opening earlier that day. “He knows that his bid is over your money and he seemed quite willing to work any way he could to get the price down,” the architect said. Breakdowns (Continued from Page 1) work." The superintendent promised a full report on the cost of repairs already done and a projection on maintenance to come at the School Board’s budget meeting March 3. And he tempered the bad news with a tidbit of good: Potomac Edison will play fairy godmother to Rappahannock’s public schools yet another time by frilly equipping a computer lab at the high school as a pilot program for the state. Mr. Estabrook said he’ll also give the details of the utility company’s largesse at the upcoming special session. FmHA loan money down Fewer Virginia farmers will be getting loans from the Fanners Home Administration (FmHA) this year. A change in the FmHA’s lending authority has left the organization with $11.8 million less for direct operating loans to Virginia farmers this year. To offset the decline in direct lending, however, FmHA has authority to guarantee $43.2 million in operating loans from other lenders. Available FmHA money is being loaned on a first-come, first-served basis. FmHA is not abandoning the farmer. It will guarantee 90 percent of the principal and interest for those fanners who meet requirements, even after the money for direct loans has run out. FmHA also will help farmers apply for guaranteed loans. But the fanners will have to find an actual Job training offered for disadvantaged The Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) of 1982 is committed to preparing individuals with serious employment barriers to become productive members of the labor force. Hie program, designed and implemented primarily through local agencies, provides for the delivery of job training and related services to low-income and unemployed youth and adults. In Planning District 9 (PD9), which includes the counties of Fauquier, Rappahannock, Culpeper, Madison and Orange, one component of this service is offered by the Orange County Department of Public Welfare. Under the auspices of the Piedmont Job Training Administration and funded by a grant from the Virginia Department of Education, the Orange County agency is currently formulating plans for a Certified Geriatric Nursing Assistant class to be held in Warrenton in mid March. JTPA eligible individuals must be at least 18 years of age, out of school and not eligible to participate in the Nurse’s Aide programs administered by the local high schools in PD9. Income guidelines, as set forth by the Department of Labor, must also be met The only cost to participants will be the purchase of white pants and appropriate shoes. All textbooks and materials will be provided. The course will run approximately four weeks and will include classroom training, “hands on” clinical experience, and CPR training. Classroom hours are from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. five days per week. Clinical hours will follow a different schedule. An acceptable rating in all areas must be achieved in order to become certified. Certification allows graduates to obtain employment in any nursing home in the state of Virginia. Some graduates prefer a private home setting and they will be trained with this in mind. In either case jobs in this field are numerous and stable. Inquiries concerning training should be directed to Barbara Johnson, Vocational Skills Program, 190 Caroline Street, Orange, VA 22960 or call (703) 672-5424 as soon as possible. loan at a commercial bank, the Federal Land Bank or Production Credit Association. This will mean the producer might pay an interest rate that may be as much as 3 percent higher than that obtained from FmHA. The FmHA funded direct production loans for 561 Virginia farmers in 1986. The average loan was for $30,000 for approximately six months with the crops or livestock being the collateral. The FmHA has been the lender of last resort. In order to get a loan from FmHA, the farmer has to be having trouble getting a loan from othef sources. The current change at the FmHA was made to try to lower the direct cost to the government. The change, which was mandated by Congress, lowers the FmHA’s capital needs. NUGGETS OF TRUTH \ Family Wonhip Center j Washington, Va. Jj Last week in part 1 of Un- \ derstanding Righteousness we saw that the Bible teaches us to awake to righteousness and sin not. When we sin we are a victim of condemnation, we lose our sense of righteousness. We are still righteous in God’s sight because of what Jesus has done for us (Romans 5:17-21 & 2 Corinthians 5:21). When we have sinned we can go to The Father God according to 1 John 1:9 and confess our sin and the Bible says God is faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us of all unrighteousness. When we are cleansed of sin we gain our confidence back and also our sense of righteousness. In order to walk in a sense of righteousness we must abide in Jesus Christ. To abide means to dwell or live. We can abide in Christ by following his commandments to love one another and to serve him with our whole heart. We glorify God when we abide in Christ because when we abide in Christ we bear much fruit, that glorifies God. If we are a Christian we will want our lives to bear good fruit, fruit that appeals to others. The Holy Spirit is our helper, he abides in our spirit (the real us) he will convict us when we sin and then always lead us to God’s word. We know that God’s word chastens and corrects us. The Bible says in 2 Timothy 3:16 that the scriptures are inspired by God and they instruct us in righteousness. So if you want to be in rightstanding and at peace with God, believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is the son of God and was raised from the dead and then confess with your mouth that he is your Lord and you shall be saved and made new. For with your heart you believe unto righteousness and with your mouth confession is made unto salvation. (Romans 10:9 & 10). LMfclfcll Photo conrtety of Peter H.

Chimney fires still a danger It’s possible to be basking in the warmth of a woodbuming stove, unaware that the chimney is on firC. A chimney fire can be difficult to detect. Outside, someone may notice fire, sparks and lots of smoke coming from the chimney. Inside the house, there might be a greatly increased draft or a roaring noise. A very severe chimney fire may sound something like a train. A chimney fire also may cause the stovepipe to glow red hot or vibrate. Flames may be visible through stovepipe cracks. Even the smallest chimney fires are dangerous. Temperature inside the chimney can reach 2,000 degrees F. The chimney may not be able to contain the fire and it may ignite the rest of the house, or sparks flying from the chimney may catch the roof on fire. ‘Talisman’ takes literary award For the third consecutive year, Talisman, the literary magazine of Wakefield School, has received a first place award from the Columbia University Scholastic Press Association in their annual national competition of school literary works. For creativity, the Wakefield magazine received the total number bf points possible. 'The poetry and prose of the upper school students was described by the judges as “superb” and “exceptional,” and the writings of younger students were praised as original and impressive. Because of the level of achievement of the Wakefield publication, the faculty adviser to the 1986 Talisman, Mrs. Helen Ruisi, has been invited to speak at the 63rd annual convention of the Association, to be held at Columbia University in New York City from March 11-13.

Main Front Royal If a chimney catches fire, dear the house and call the fire department. Close fireplace or stove doors and shut stove draft controls^ Throwing baking soda into the woodburning stove or fireplace may help. Try discharging a dry chemical fire extinguisher into the stove. Whatever is done, don’t fight the fire if there’s any chance you could get trapped in a smoky, burning house. If you have a chimney fire, have the chimney inspected by a competent chimney sweep before using it again. To prevent chimney fires, periodically inspect the chimney and dean out creosote deposits. Also, manage the use of a woodstove to limit the production and accumulation of creosote. Bum the stove for 20 minutes every day at arhigh operating temperature to clear accumulated deposits from the flue and chimney.

The only opposition came from four' contractors who had been specifically invited to the work session by individual supervisors, he added. “If they’d had a public hearing, if there’d been a lot of objections and they’d voted it down, then it would have been due process,” said Mr. Smet, adding he wouldn’t have resigned in that case, even though he believes the licensing program for electrical, plumbing and mechanical contractors is crucial to providing safe housing. “I feel sorry for this county,” concluded the building inspector. “They (the supervisors) don’t know the damage they’ve done to tide county.” According to the Hagerstown Almanack Since friend groundhog emerged from his den last Feb. 2, on Candelmas, and saw his shadow, superstition forecast six more weeks of winter. This was really beside the point, inasmuch as spring arrives six weeks later anyway at 10:52 p.m. EST on March 20, the Vernal Equinox, when the sun crosses the equator into the northern hemisphere, rising due east and setting due west. Day and night are then approximately the same length. Full moon, often called the sap moon as sugaring time arrives in the Northeast, occurs at 8:13 a.m. EST on the 15th. Weather watch: Expect below average temperatures and precipitation during the period. Look for the month to come in somewhat like a lamb but with storms 7-10, 15-17, and 20-21 and the month going out like a lion with stormy weather 2931. Typical March winds will be intermittent throughout the period. Be on the alert for tornadoes in the southeast 1-3, 15-16 and from Georgia through the Carolines to Virginia 21-24. Last Call we predicted a total of 44 inches of snow for our area from November through March. Unless February and March drop heavy volumes of the white stuff on us, it doesn’t appear we’ll reach that total. Incidentally, our own area Woolly Bears, “Hager” and “Alma," last October predicted a somewhat mild winter the first half with the latter part very mild. Gardening activities are, at best, iffy, depending on how quickly your soil dries out. If possible, get potatoes in by the 17th, St. Patrick’s Day, also early peas; sow tomato seeds indoors on the 19th, St. Joseph’s Day. Otherwise don’t compact the soil. This is the year for 17-year cicadas, erroneously called “locusts" but actually “Magidcada septendecim.” Tholand j oins D ay Really Eileen M.
