V^I? 4 Irr ! h.t^vy:^ ^ fip" ’ Board agrees to hold firm on salaries By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Newa Staff Writer In a final review before forwarding the 1987-88 budget on to the supervisors, the School Board members on Tuesday night endorsed pay raises recommended by Superintendent Robert Estabrook for administrators and classified personnel. By unanimous vote, they proposed: • $3,515 for all administrators, including the superintendent, assistant superintendent, special services coordinator, two principals and two assistant principals. • five-step pay scale for aides based on years of experience with a 10 percent increase applied to each step. • 14 percent pay raise for the central office bookkeeper. • 10 percent pay raise plus experience increment for all administrative secretaries. • an increase in pay for bus drivers to $31.55 per day for 0-9 years experience, $32.55 per day for 10-19 years and $33.55 per day for 20 years and up. • 10 percent pay increase for custodians, the transportation superintendent and the garage mechanic. The budget presented earlier this month by Mr. Estabrook called for $3,589,398 in total school spending and a jump of around $435,000 in local funding. That represents a 23 percent hike over the current level of local support, and with one cent on the tax rate bringing in, about $22,000, Would have meant a tax increase of around 20 cents for schools alone. At last week’s budget work session, the board trimmed close to $100,000 from various line items. This Tuesday, $10,175 of that was restored for sabbatical leave. “The system certainly benefits when teachers further their education,” said board member Randall Updike. “We certainly need to reinstate this... It's an investment in the future.” Chairman Beverly Massie pointed out that a teacher receiving money through this program must stay in the Rappahannock schools for three years or else repay the sabbatical stipend. Also on Tuesday, the board dropped an aide position but with the proviso that the individual be offered a contract, with fringe benefits, as a fUll-time substitute teacher. The budget as proposed for the purchase of two new school buses in 1987-88. Last week, board member Bill Oliver asked for information on the possibility of putting new engines in high mileage buses as an alternative to buying new buses. Assistant superintendent Tom Campbell reported on Tuesday that the Brunswick Correctional System does exterior and interior painting, refurbishing and engine replacement. “They totally redo buses . . . I’m certainly not suggesting that the board go this route but I was asked to get this information,” said Mr. Campbell, adding that he had no figures as yet on the savings this would bring over purchase of new buses. Looking ahead to expected cuts by the Board of Supervisors, Mr. Oliver noted, “we’ll have a chance to learn more about that when this budget comes back from Little Washington!” The board had a hint on Tuesday of the direction that the supervisors will take. Their administrative assistant, John McCarthy, noted that “fractured positions,” such as special service coordinator’s Pam Rowe, can be eliminated with the various duties - overseeing special education and the gifted and talented programs - parcelled out to other administrators. “That’s the sort of thing that other school divisions are doing.” With the continuing decline of federal support for the special education entitlement programs, Ms. Rowe’s job has a built-in demand for more county funds above and beyond the regular pay increases given other school system employees, Mr. McCarthy noted. “That's the bitter 1 : est pill I can see here.” Other school divisions have far more people to shoulder the administrative load, countered Chairman Beverly Massie. All school divisions, whether serving 800 or 2,500 students, “are mandated by the state to cany on the same functions, fill out the same reports, the same forms, the same IEPs (individual educational plans) ... I don’t know how we can take away a position with line responsibility ... I don’t see how we can give these people (the school administrators) any more hats to wear,” Mrs. Massie contended. All Rappahannock officials wear many hats, Mr. McCarthy replied, adding that as zoning administrator, he has the same responsibilities as his counterpart in Fairfax and no assistants to share the duties. But, like the school administrators in a small division such as Rappahannock’s, “there are far fewer forms to fill out and I can write N/A (not applicable) much more often,” he said. As of press time, Mr. Campbell had not completed recalculations on the new bottom line and required county contribution for the proposed 1987-88 school budget. Superintendent Estabrook is scheduled to go over the contemplated educational expenditures in detail with Mr. McCarthy this Friday. Planners consider taxidermy provision By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Newa Staff Writer Dissatisfied with the options offered by zoning administrator John McCarthy, the Rappahannock planning commissioners asked last week for more information and alterna/ ves on \ Vrations At last Wednesday’s meeting, Mr. McCarthy presented three zoning classifications for the business, which involves preparing, stuffing and mounting the skins of animals: • Allowed as a home occupation in any zoning district. • Allowed as a commercial, retail and business use by right in one or more zoning districts. • Allowed as a commercial, retail and business use only in Agriculture, Conservation, General Commercial or Highway Commercial zoning districts by special use permit from the Board of Zoning Appeals with a site plan required. In his memo to the planning commissioners, Mr. McCarthy recommended the third option. “The profession of taxidermy is overseen largely by the Commonwealth, which does license commercial taxidermists,” the zoning administrator loted. “However, the disposal of providing for taxidermy, ,opas a land use. ^ f waste material resulting from a taxidermy operation and the attending potential nuisances in terms of smell, unsightliness, etc. indicate that a modicum of local oversight be included in locating such operations.” Calling taxidermy “rural life, related,” Mr. McCarthy noted that other jurisdictions allow the use either by right or through a permitting process. He told the planners that with either option, the scope of the operation could be controlled in the zoning ordinance’s definition of taxidermy. The inclusion of a limit on square feet of work area will differentiate between taxidermy shops and “an ajiimal rendering or meat processing^plant,” Mr. McCarthy said. )■ “I’d like to see us discuss this some more so that we understand it before we take (a zoning ordinance amendment providing for taxidermy operations) to public hearing,” responded Newbill Miller, the Board of Supervisors’ representative on the Planning Commission. “I brought this up because someone called me and asked me what he had to do to get a taxidermy shop in his garage,” said Commissioner David Fannon. Checking through the county’s recently enacted zoning ordinance, he found no provisions at all for taxidermy, the Jackson District commissioner added. He stressed, however, that there should be no rush to amend the ordinance to allow for this business. “There’s nothing planned that I know of,” Mr. Fannon assured his fellow commissioners, Mr. Miller asked the zoning administrator to check with the state agency responsible for licensing taxidermists. "We need to know what’s involved - potential pollution and potential contamination . . . the potential problems and their solutions,” he told Mr. McCarthy. "Give us some more ideas. I don’t have enough here.” Mr. Miller also took the lead in seeking more information on a request from Potomac Edison for a zoning ordinance amendment. Cturently, the ordinance exempts utility distribution and transmission lines (less than 34.5 kv) located on easements less than 25 feet in width from meeting setback and other zoning provisions.'Potomac Edison wants that changed to a 40-foot easement. Trees and bushes are cleared from the area ground the lines on a four-year cutting cycle which is adequate to control vegeta tive growth on a 40-foot easement, according to Potomac Edison representatives. “They say they can’t maintain a 25-foot right-of-way and still ensure service to customers,” the zoning administrator reported. “They’re saying that to keep from complying with the zoning ordinance, they’ll put lines on a 25-foot' right-of-way and provide substandard maintenance,” replied Mr. Miller, asking Mr. McCarthy to research the issue farther with assistance from Phil Irwin, who directed the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection’s fight against utility power lines. Mr. Irwin repeated his request for a zoning ordinance amendment < which would require structures to be set back 50 feet from existing high voltage lines. This requirement would increase the likelihood that utilities would use existing corridors for upgrading transmission rather than building new lines “across virgin territory,” he explained. The commissioners agreed that such an amendment could be advantageous. They pointed out, however, that structures already standing within that 50-foot distance would (Continued on Page 3) Massie announces for Hampton District seat By LOU HATTER Rappahannock N*wi Staff Writer Michael Massie announced on Tuesday that he is a candidate for the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors from Hampton District. “I’d like to try to keep Rappahannock County the way it is — that's the main reason I’m running,” Mr. Massie said, in explaining his bid for the board post. Presently, Mr. Massie is the only candidate who has announced for Hampton District supervisor. NewbiU Miller, who represents the district now, has not yet announced whether he will run for re-election in November. Mr. Massie, 31, is a Rappahannock native who is the chairman of the Landfill Advisory Committee created by the Board of Supervisors last fall to assist in finding a site for a new landfill. He said in an interview Tuesday that he has been considering whether to run for supervisor for some time. ‘You reach a point in your life when you want to give something back to the community. That’s how I feel now,” he said, explaining what motivated his decision. “Last fall, when I became involved with the landfill committee, the idea came to get into public service. That’s what the Board of Supervisors is — public service. “If you like living here, you need to do something to keep it a place worth living in. There’s no place like it where I would like to live — I don’t want to lose it." But, he added, “It’s going to take everyone working together to ■ keep it that way.” **= i “Only by joining together,” Mr. Massie continued, “can the residents of Rappahannock hope to keep the county as it is. I see divisiveness as harmfiil. I hope to draw voters from a cross-section of the community: young, old, newcomers, established families, white and black.” WutimKMte&fi 4 m MIKE MASSIE “If we lose Rappahannock,” he asked, "where do we go? I have grown and developed roots here — I want my children and grandchildren to have the same opportunity to eryoy the county and make a living here.” The two main businesses of the county, tourism and fanning, he said, need each other. Without the beautiful, working farms, the tourists would not find Rappahannock County such an attractive place. He emphasized that he would like to keep it that way. “I don’t want to see Rappahannock go the way of Prince William” and the other suburban counties, he said. Mr. Massie attended the Commerce School at the University of Virginia before returning home to Rappahannock to begin fuming in partnership with Ms father, Wide Massie, m 1677 oh the family farm at Massie’s Corner. They continue to operate a beef cattle farm which also produces hay and straw. He is married to the former Toni Bredin, of Kennett Square, Pa. They are expecting their first child in September. ',4 ■ Landfill hearing date, time In last week’s article about the public hearing scheduled by the Board of Supervisors to receive comment on two landfill applications, the date was incorrect. The public hearing will be held Wednesday, April 8 at 7 p.m. at the Courthouse in Washington. The Rappahannock Newt regrets the error.

Weekend Weather According to the National Weather Service, the extended forecast calls for cloudy skies and showers through Friday. Saturday and Sunday should see partial clearing. County Cleanup Day set for Saturday Rappahannock County’s first annual Spring Cleanup Day, organized by the Rappahannock Anti-Litter League and You (RALLY!) is planned for Saturday, and organizers say that all signs point to a successful event. David Chuse, who heads the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection, which is helping to coordinate the cleanup, said that he expects between 50 and 100 participants. Plans call for volunteers to meet at the Rappahannock County Recreation Center on Rt. 211 outside Washington at 10 a.m. Zoning Administrator John McCarthy, who is also wearing the hat of RALLY! coordinator, said that his office is still receiving suggestions of problem areas which need attention. So far, he reported, the suggested targets relate to the coun- <■ ty’s miyor population areas. The Fodderstack Road,- Rt. 211 west of < SperryviDe up into the Shenandoah Park, and stretches of Rt. 729 between Rt. 211 and Viewtown have all been suggested as possible cleanup sites. Since the weather has moderated, Mr. McCarthy added, Sheriff , John Henry Woodward has had jail inmates out picking up trash along some of the county’s roads, which he said has helped ease the litter situa- - tion in some areas. RALLY!’s schedule for the cleanup is a rendezvous of volunteers at the Recreation Center at 10 ; a.m. on Saturday. Both Mr. McCarthy and Mr. Chuse urged that volun- ' teere bring friends and neighbors. The more the merrier, they said, and the more litter which can be disposed of. From the Rec Center, groups will disperse to target areas to clean up the county’s worst eyesores. The cleanup will go until 2 p.m., when the volunteers will return to the Rec Center. There, food and drink supplied by McDonald’s of Culpeper and RALLY! will await the hungry litter-pickers. Entertainment will be supplied by Marque Kolack, a professional mime, comedian and musician, who will MC a brief program. All participants will also receive a handsome red or blue imprinted T8hirt to commemorate the event. In addition to food, McDonald’s is also supplying trash bags, which are also being donated by the Virginia Department of Transportation. The highway department, as well as several individuals, have also volunteered to donate trucks to haul the bagged litter away. "McDonald’s has really gone above and beyond the call of duty,” in responding to RALLYl’s request for assistance, Mr. McCarthy said. He suggested that anyone with Suggestions for target areas, or who wishes to participate in the cleanup (alone or with a group) call the zoning office in Washington (675-3342) with that information. His office is open 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. If.1 Mr. Chuse added that although this is RALLYl’s first activity, he hopes that it will be the kickoff for "an ongoing, year-round program. :■ TRYING OUT FOR Team RALLY! are (from left) Jensen Kvaraes, David Chuse, John McCarthy, Sandra Brown and Jan Palmer. * • \a. ... 1 ^ v V .

.. . UTews of Record Albert Gatewood guilty of abduction, gun charges By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News SUIT Writer Albert Wayne Gatewood, 29, of Front Royal, was found guilty in Rappahannock County Circuit Court on TTiursday of two felony charges of abduction and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. The jury found him innocent of a third, misdemeanor charge, destruction of private property. Gatewood was sentenced to 90 days in jail and a $500 fine on the abduction charge. The firearms charge carries a mandatory two-year sentence. It cannot be modified or suspended. The charges stemmed from an incident which took place last October 12 and 13, involving Gatewood and Jerome Veeney, of Culpeper, which began during the evening of Oct. 12 at the Pine Knot Inn on Rt. 211 and ended in the early morning hours of Oct. 13 on Rt. 622 in Gid Brown Hollow, near the Promised Land Baptist Church. According to Mr. Veeney’s testimony, he came to the Pine Knot Inn late that afternoon with Wanda Sue Fuller. Ms. Fuller testified she is Albert Gatewood’s ex-girlfriend and he is the father of her daughter. Several of his friends from Culpeper were also there, Mr. Veeney said. They stayed, drinking and talking, until between 9 and 10 p.m., when Ms. Fuller suggested “it was best they leave - there’s going to be trouble.” When they left, a disturbance occurred between Mr. Veeney and several of the other patrons, including Gatewood’s brother Reginald. During that disturbance, Mr. Veeney testified, Ms. Fuller told him to go wait at his car, which he did, but realized he had lost his car keys. She returned to the Pine Knot to look for the keys while he stayed at the car. Mr. Veeney testified that as he waited at the car, he heard someone come down the road and he hid in the bushes beside the road. He said he saw Albert Gatewood walk down the dirt road to his car and smash the windshield and driver’s window with a rock. ; He said that he hid because he knew Albert was looking for him because he was out with Ms. Fuller. After some time, Mr. Veeney testified, Ms. Fuller and a friend, Debbie Racer, came down the lane in Ms. Racer’s car and picked him up. He asked them to give him a ride to Culpeper, but Ms. Fuller said she had to take her daughter to her grandmother’s house in Gid Brown Hollow first. As they drove past the Pine Knot, he said, Albert Gatewood stood in the middle of the road, on the yellow line, and waved his arms, trying to flag down the car. Ms. Racer didn’t stop. According to testimony, the three headed for Vivian Gatewood’s home in Gid Brown Hollow. The two women left Mr. Veeney at the bottom of the driveway before going inside, where Ms. Fuller put her ■daughter to bed. At that point, Mr. Veeney testified, a pickup drove up the driveway. Ms. Fuller testified that the pickup was driven by Reginald Gatewood, and that Albert Gatewood was riding in it. He came inside and "looked through the house for Jerome ... He was upset,” Ms. Fuller said. She said that they then went back outside, where she told Reginald to take Albert home. They got in the truck and left. The women waited for a few minutes, then left Mrs. Gatewood’s house and picked up Mr. Veeney at the base of the driveway. They then drove out of the hollow on Rt. 622, intending to take Mr. Veeney to his home in Culpeper, Ms. Fuller testified. About two miles down the road, according to Mr. Veeney’s testimony, a pickup truck with its lights on blocked the road, forcing Ms. AUCTION 1 • >.'V| .. ■ .. FARM EQUIPMENT AUCTION SAT.

THE RAPPAHANNOCK SENIOR CITIZENS’ Nutrition Site recently held a basketweaving workshop with instructor Janet Kerig (right) who volunteered through the Rap* pahannock-Rapidan Community Services Center.

Assisting with the workshop were Cathy Kiley, Dorothy Heffelfinger, Marian Simpson, Liz Tole and Shirley Farmer. The nutrition site coordinator is Sandra Parker. Racer to stop her car. When they stopped, Albert and Reginald Gatewood got out of the truck and approached the car. They both carried pistols, Mr. Veeney testified. Ms. Racer attempted to put the car into reverse, she testified, to back away, but stalled the car. Albert approached the car on the driver's side, Ms. Racer said, and told her to unlock the door. She refused, and Gatewood put his hand on the window, which was open several inches. He pulled it and the window shattered, after which Ms. Racer testified he apologised and offered to pay for it. He then walked around to the passenger side where his brother was standing. Mr. Veeney said Albert ordered Ms. Fuller out of the car, and then ordered him to get out. “I didn’t want to get out,” he said, “but I did because he had a gun.” Albert then told the two women to leave, Mr. Veeney testified. “They didn’t, but I told them it was best if they go,” he said. They then got back in the car and left. Albert started talking, Mr. Veeney testified, “pointing the gun in my face, telling me ‘Stay away, don’t bring your — back up here or I’ll blow your brains out.’ He stood right in front of me, pointed the gun on my nose and said, ‘Hit me,-, so I can blow your head off.” Recreating the scene with Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke, Mr. Veeney stood toe-to-toe with Mr. Luke and put the tip of his index finger on Mr. Luke’s nose, as he tea Call 675-3338 to subscribe m Selling 30 Performance Tested Bulls • One 360K Floppy Dr. • 512K Memory • Serial and Parallel Ports • Color/Monochrome/Graphics Interface Board • DOS 3.1 • Clock ) • Monochrome Monitor 25L,P (Choice of green or amber) Plus!... 45 MG Hard Disk $3495 Color System $3749 “ ComputerLand til Appl» Momom IM Wochoslor (703) «M091 Between Martin’s & Apple Blossom Mall County emergency log ‘ Fire and rescue The following calls were routed through the dispatch center in the past week: March 18: 3:14 p.m., possible heart attack, Rt. 522, Sperryville Rescue Squad and Flint Hill Fire Department; 3:45 p.m., chest pains, Rt. 643, Amissville Fire Department and Washington Fire Department.

"I was scared he was going to shoot me,” he said. Finally, Mr. Veeney testified, Reginald Gatewood said, "Put the gun down and whup his — like a man.” He then told his brother, “Come on, let’s go,” and he and his brother got back in the truck and left. Mr. Veeney began walking out of the hollow, where he was picked up a few minutes later by Ms. Fuller and Ms. Racer, who were returning from the Hampton Inn after calling the Sheriffs Department. They had seen Reginald Gatewood’s pickup pass the Hampton Inn while they were waiting for the sheriff, and they returned to Gid Brown Hollow to see what had happened. r There was no disagreement among the participants in the incident on Rt. 622 that Ms. Racer did stop the car after meeting Reginald’s pickup on the road, and that Albert Gatewood did tell Mr. Veeney to get out of the car.

. , AS TROOPER HENDERSON’S flag-draped casket is carried out of the chapel, attended by an honor guard. - ’ I.' ,.V'. ••• . • ; ' . • j- . - - \ . . • “ \V • ' . ..v! 2' By LOU HATTER 1 An estimated 900 people, including some 400 police officers, paid tribute to Virginia State Police Trooper H. Lee Henderson in Front Royal Friday. The crowd, which overflowed Turner Robertshaw Funeral Home, stood outside in the bright morning sun and heard the trooper eulogized as a man who "believed that the law was a good thing for society; so for him being a trooper was not just a job, it was something he was called to be,” in the words of Rev. Bruce Stevens, Trooper Henderson’s pastor at Buckton Presbyterian Church. "Because of his belief he brought integrity to the law.” State Police troopers from as far away as New York and California, wearing parade dress uniforms, were joined by officers from the Park Service and numerous local police and sheriffs departments. They stood at attention in solemn ranks during the service, then paid their final respects with a salute as Trooper Henderson’s flag-draped casket was carried out of the chapel and down th$ steps past an honor guard. Trooper Henderson, 43, was killed early last Tuesday morning when a tractor-trailer ran over his cruiser as it sat on the shoulder of Interstate 66 near Linden in Warren County. According to Lt. J. P, Henries, the trooper had stopped another vehicle and had his blue emergency lights flashing at the time of the accident. ... Two of the four occupants of the other vehicle were seriously injured, two others sustained minor injuries. First Sgt. G. H. Gregory, of the Warrenton office, said that Trooper Henderson was apparently killed instantly. The accident occurred at r VV.- 'J;* i --W • t _i 220a.m. at milepost 11 on 1-66. % Lt. Henries said that the driver of the truck, Gary Lamar Hughes, 25, of Cohutta, Ga„ told police that he fell asleep. "It appears,” Lt. Henries added, “that based on our investigation he had been operating the vehicle for some 18 hours.” State Police were unable to determine whether Hughes had been driving the entire time, Lt. Henries said, but “he had not had any sleep” during that period of time. Hughes has been charged with involuntary manslaughter, reckless driving, and two motor carrier violations: failure to maintain a current logbook and operating a commercial vehicle without a medical certificate. Had Hughes’s logbook been up to date, Lt. Henries said, investigators would have been able to determine how long he had actually been driving, and how much time he had spent resting. The medical certificate, which must be kept in the vehicle with the logbook, attests that the operator has had an annual medical examination, required by motor carrier regulations. A 14-year veteran of the State Police, Trooper Henderson had been stationed in Front Royal since his graduation from the State Police > Academy in 1973. “Iam dismayed, unbelieving, and my heart is broken,” Rev. Stevens said. “There was something that made Lee special. . . different from other people. Lee was a believer. In a world in which most of us are ready to give in to cynicism and frustration, this man remained a believer.” Rev. Stevens called Trooper Henderson a devoted family man, whose wife Linda tragically died of cancer last year. She left him with - two children, Michael and Mary. They had . V ■' : V : 1 ^ ' * . * ^ , - - worked to provide a home filled with love and security for the children, Rev. Stevens said, "and Lee tried so hard to continue that in the months since Linda’s death.” The trooper was dedicated to his church as well, serving as an elder of Buckton Presbyterian Church. "You’ll find liis fingerprints on most all of the building projects that have been done in that church,” Rev. Stevens continued, "and more than that, you’ll find the imprint of his love on the people.” Trooper Henderson had been the Scoutmaster of Boy Scout Troop 52 in Front Royal since 1976, and members of his scout troop served as honoraiy pallbearers. They were joined by Scouts and leaders from a number of troops in the Shenandoah District, including a group from Troop 123 in Rappahannock. “There is no way to tell how many boys have been influenced, how many boys have been affected by the contact they had with this man,” Rev. Stevens said. Following the service in Front Royal, Trooper Henderson was buried next to his wife in Greenhill Cemetery in Churchville, near his hometown of Staunton. The graveside service, which included a flag presentation by the Virginia State Police honor guard, was attended by Gov. Gerald L. Baliles. He presented the flag which draped Trooper Henderson’s casket to the trooper’s mother, children and brothers. "Lee believed he could make a difference, and he did,” Rev. Stevens concluded. “That’s what makes his death especially tragic and senseless. We needed his belief in us, because he made us better. And the best way we can honor him is to keep believing as he did.” .L,,^mmmm^mi^£m2^ttUJl£JL ^,. V - ■ ., '• ' -■•■ ■■ -* .. ■• .:;: ; V ‘Mark Twain9 at Madison Co.

True, more prospects are looking - but just as many more homeowners are selling. The shrewd homeowner who wants to sell in the spring for a summer move should stack the percentages in his favor by listing his home with a REALTOR BEFORE the influx of the heavy bulk of sellers. During the quieter periods, the REALTOR can put more time, effort and advertising into selling your home and there will be far less competition. And if you plan on a summer move, you may be able to set a later date for conveying title or make a rental agreement to live in your home until the time you originally planned to vacate. Also, you can look forward to buying your new home and not have to worry about selling your present one.

Moore, Extension agricultural economist. “It’s a real unfortunate situation,” Without the protection that crop insurance offers, farmers who already are under financial stress are' placed in a precarious position. “Another bad year may be all it will take to put them out of business,” Mr. Moore said. 1 Crop insurance provides com, . soybean, and wheat growers with protection against catastrophic or potential income losses. Actually two insurance policies in one, it offers both protection against low yields and a price assurance for crops. Natural disasters such as hail, drought, flood, wind, and wildlife damage are covered, as well as insect and disease damage that was not due to human negligence. Selecting a crop insurance policy can be a confusing and time-con- ' Burning task. “If the farmer decides that insurance is necessary, there are nine different options to choose from,” explained Mr. Moore. A new computer program developed by the Virginia Cooperative Extension Service can help make these decisions easier by applying risk management techniques to each farm situation. “The program first helps farmers decide whether or not they should even raise the crop,” Mr. Moore said. “Then it looks at all nine crop insurance alternatives and lets the computer perform the mind-boggling number of calculations that are necessary." ' The only one of its kind in the country, the program allows farmers to preview various yield ranges and probabilities. By putting a dollar value on the probability of an event occurring, the risk management program lets farmers see how severe the consequences of an event could be. . ... , “Risk management is a new technology that farmers are going to have to learn to use,” he said. “It’s not precise, but risk management is a useful decision-making tool for farmers.” ■ . ./I,.— :.-.. .. — By inserting information provided by the farmer into the computer, Extension Service agents are able to provide anticipated insurance premiums for each of the nine crop insurance alternatives. For example, crop producers can insure their crop for 75 percent, 66 percent, or 50 percent of their average yields at three different payment levels. According to Mr. Moore, most farmers who need crop insurance should seriously consider selecting the highest yield coverage with the highest price coverage. “That level could keep them in business for another year if a disaster does occur,” he said. “Any other choice is marginal as to whether it would really help.” - The deadline to purchase crop insurance for spring crops is Wednesday, April 1. Farmers should contact Birgitt Thornhill at the Rappahannock County Extension Office (6753619).'. : Planners (Continued from Page 1) first have to be mapped and, after the amendment is enacted, permitted under a “grandfather” clause. The commissioners also noted that an opinion on the legal implications of Mr. Irwin’s proposal would be required. They did not direct the zoning administrator to begin work on either the mapping or the legal opinion. A list of 14 proposed zoning ordinance amendments was forwarded to the Board of Supervisors with a unanimous recommendation for adoption. The . action came after an advertised public hearing' from which the public was conspicuously absent. According to Mr. McCarthy; the amendments will merely (1) correct typographical errors, (2) bring Rappahannock’s land use laws into compliance with the state’s enabling legislation or (3) simplify administrative procedures. - i Phil Irwin was the lone speaker at the public hearing, and his comments were directed to form rather than substance. As drafted by Mr. McCarthy, one amendment read: “In the case of planned leave, the Chair- • man will be tasked with the Zoning Administrator’s functions ...” Objecting to this noun proliferation, Mr. Irwin asked that “tasked with”, be replaced by “given” or some other grammatically correct alternative.

THURSDAY, MARCH 26.1987 Editorial Courtesy of the Garden Club There’s a “sign” at the comer of the courthouse quadrangle that shouts “That’s all folks! Winter is gone!” Spelled out in a bright burst of color, it heralds the departure of sleet, snow and cold and the arrival of glorious spring. Without neon, without big flashing letters, the message is delivered. It comes courtesy of the Rappahannock County Garden Club’s courthouse beautification project. When the Garden Club ladies first proposed the work to the supervisors and won their endorsement for the project, we let the effort slip by without comment. And we hardly noticed when volunteers braved a cold rain to put plants into the ground. Now, better late than never, we say thank you. Thank you, members of the Rappahannock Garden Club, for the beautiful arrangement of golden and purple crocuses. Thank you for the plantings of white pine and spruce that will grow to screen the unsightly - but necessary - chain link fence surrounding the jail’s exercise yard. Thank you for the pyracantha, the junipers and the landscaping around the Civil War Memorial. Thank you for the flower boxes that make the handsome red brick buildings even more attractive. Thank you for the stone benches that so fittingly turn the courthouse yard into a front stoop where folks can congregate and chat. As the seat of our local government, the courthouse quadrangle should symbolize the county just as the Capitol 5. and its grounds symbolize the nation. Ladies of the Garden ~ Club, you’ve helped make this symbol as lovely as the rest of beautiful Rappahannock. '— Thank you.

To the editor: Well, I was ready to leave the county, I was so ashamed of Rappahannock County — that the county school head man was allowed to cancel the Kancouran performance. Rappahannock County has lots of left and right wing liberals, but no one takes immediate action - everyone accepts and knows racism is carried on daily. It was hard enough to watch a barefoot ceremonial dancer have to pull a huge nail out of the dance floor. Performing with honor, one ceremonial dancer had to leave the stage to go look for a hammer. I mean, break a rhythm to go look for a hammer backstage to pull a nail out with a splinter sticking up. I felt a dishonor had been done to a people who came here to share a culture that isn’t white. They were not allowed to be with white kids, as well as all kids, to teach. Rappahannock County invited Kancouran to appear and teach, share and give totally and we showed them our racism. Music, art, dance and some ceremonies should be shared with all people. When do we change and accept the fact that the U.S.A. has all kinds of people, in all colors, shapes, sizes and ages? We don’t care if we mine the earth and steal land, oppress and create drug and alcohol problems with natives. Yet, we are so ready to want to see cultural people, art, crafts, ceremonies and so many sweat lodges in non-traditional’s ;■ hands. Most people don’t know or care, that most traditional native Americans resent the copying or use of their teachings. We try to catch cultural and spiritual energy and apply it in our lives, all the time forgetting the people. I approached different friends of mine and asked them what they thought about the school racial issue. They said, “It’s not right, but what can I do?” Cultural people’s ceremony which so many try to apply in their lives is about peace, love, harmony with all creatures; but we pull the power to us and at times forget the people. Phenix Metis Flint Hill A successful auction To the editor: On behalf of the Amissville Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad, I would like to thank the surrounding communities for their donations and support at our auction held Saturday, March 21. We f grossed in the excess of $2,000 and our newly formed auxiliary made over $200 selling food and refreshments. Again, your support and generosity is greatly appreciated. SHEILA M. SCOTT Secretary, Amissville VFD & RS Letters to the editor on public issues are welcome. They must bear the writer’s signature, address and daytime telephone number to be considered for publication. If possible, they should be typed and double-spaced. The best letters are concise. Let’s share cultures To the editor: It is a shame that Superintendent Robert Estabrook did not allow the West African dance group Kancouran to perform in our public schools. If he is concerned about the racial situation, as he says he is, he missed a wonderful opportunity to educate students about the beautiful and rich culture which is the heritage of the black community. If he had allowed the Senegalese group to perform, the schools could have communicated the message to white students that the cultural heritage of black people is important and worth sharing. And that could have been a great help toward creating an atmosphere of respect for black students in the schools. Rappahannock County is, like most communities in the U.S., diverse. There is a mixture of races. There are people with differing economic backgrounds and people from different places - all with their unique cultural heritages. For example, the migrant workers from Mexico and Haiti help the local farmers - they also bring their own rich culture into our area. How interesting to hear Spanish spoken at the local store. How special to hear the sounds of Haitian singers and musicians drifting through the valleys on a summer night. Unfortunately, most of the cultural events which happen in the county do not reflect the diversity of our area. We have formed cliques. And, because of our racist history and patterns of economic and racial privilege, there is little “inter-clique” sharing. How many art/craft shows have black artists in them? How many local black people can afford the price of a ticket to a performance at the Gay Street theatre? RAAC is to be ap plauded for producing the Kancouran dance group - but why were there so few black people in the audience to see it? When we open up our cliques to share our creative expressions, an excitement happens which generates even greater creativity - as well as spiritual unity. In the March art show at the Middle St. Gallery, artiste asked friends who are not mem- \' bers of the cooperative artists group to show their work. This was a good impulse. It gave new people access to gallery space and widened our exposure to cultural expressions from all over. . It was a delight to see a large oil painting of a black woman as one entered the front room. Opening the gallery to different people also brought us the photographic images of Russian photographer Edik Gladkov, images which showed me that there are similarities between rural Russians and poor rural Virginians. The diversity of the new show also brought us the work of a local mixblood woman, Phenix Metis. Phenix’s crystal wands reflect a combination of ancient spiritual art with modern concern for creating peace and harmony among the peoples of the planet earth. It would be great if a future show at the Middle St. Gallery featured the work of local black artists. I would like to see our local cultural events reflect more of the diversity of our community. If anyone is interested in creating a committee to encourage inter-cultural sharing in Rappahannock County, please call me at 675-3120 before April 5 (in the mornings or after 8 at night) or write me at P.O. Box 248, Flint Hill, Va. 22627. TONI WHITE Flint Hill In search of the magic elixir By JESSE POND Rappahannock News Contributing Writer I played my last organized football game in the fall of 1940, and finished the season with no injuries other than a flattened nose. Some years before that I had broken my right ankle sliding into a base, and that ankle was temperamental. But, after that final football fling, I went into the Navy and spent three and a half years on a destroyer which rolled and pitched even in port. The constant bracing of my legs against the sea action seemed to end my ankle problem, and whatever knee problem I may have had seemed also to disappear. But, about 10 years ago that left knee became temperamental on its own, for no apparent reason. It would not foretell the coming of rain or anything else of any use whatever, it would'just be a bit finicky about holding up. Then, several weeks ago I had to fly out to St. Louis on business and on the return trip (I took the airline which uses Pittsburgh as its hub) while killing the two-hour wait between planes that old soup bone decided that it did not care for any more of my airport pacing, and ordered me to “Sit!” - so I sat. On the flight down from Pittsburgh I had to sit all squeezed in one position, and so when we landed at National Airport the thing almost refused to function at all. So, I gimped it up to the Metro station and took off for Vienna, where I was to be picked up. That night there was no comfortable position for me. So, in a desperate search for relief, I rubbed some of that highly advertised ache and pain remedy on that knee until the whole house smelted-of wintergreen. All sinuses in the house were reported clear: After three days of this - no relief. I had problems going up and down stairs. Thank God for automatic transmissions! I needed some kind of help for my knee, or the next phone call was to a contractor about installing an elevator. And then I remembered hearing something a year or so ago; so out I limped to the garage and got the spray can and gave the knee a massage. “What is that smelling up the house???” Even my faithful dog would not sleep under my chair. I spent a day as a pariah in my own house. The next morning, it was up and at ‘em as usual. I was halfway down the stairs before I realized what I was doing. That knee was working properly - no hitch - no refusal of weight. After three days, the knee continued to function, and while I was not about to suit up for football, there was no problem with that temperamental knee. So, in the interest of serving my fellow man by putting this knowledge in the public domain - the marvelous elixir comes in a blue and yellow spray can, and is available wherever gas, oil and auto parts are sold. Still stymied? It's known as WD - 40. Uses of color for healing A workshop on the andent art of color healing will he held on Tuesday, April 14, from 7 to 9:30 p.m. at the Middle Street Gallery. Thin workshop will discuss how healers in the past incorporated the use of color in their practice. Specific examples of how various professions today use color, from artists to industry, will also be covered. Also included will be a spectrum analysis to understand the properties of light and color, wavelengths and how they affect us. The seven chakras, or energy centers, will be described, their related colors and the organ systems they influence. Finally, how to apply color therapy in our daily lives will be discussed. The workshop will be led by Kathleen Maier. The fee is $7 per person, and, since space is limited, please call 636-3078 for a reservation.

The doctor is concerned about the * possible dangers of drug interaoj tions. She, too, turns to her comi puter. These scenes, which may be commonplace in a few years, show “expert systems” in action. Expert systems are computer programs containing the knowledge of human experts in narrowly defined subjects such as apple orchard management, or combination drug therapy. Expert systems consist of two parts — a knowledge base, and information which tells the system how to use that knowledge in a logical, reasoning way to produce solutions to problems. These smart computers are an example of how artificial intelligence may be commercially applied. Artificial intelligence refers to the wide range of computer programs that allow robots and other machines to mimic human behavior - to have sensing and movement capabilities, as well as the ability to think rationally, learn from experi; - ence , and make inferences. Progress jn the three decades-old field of artificial intelligence has been enormous, but uneven. Scientists and engineers have succeeded in making robots sensitive to temperature variations, but have not figured out how to give them a sense of taste, texture, or smell. Though duplicating the precise and complex action of human hands is difficult, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have been able to devise a three-fingered robot hand which can feel the shape and size of an object, “think” about the ways the object can be held securely, and grasp it in these positions. At Virginia Tech, John Roach is working on multi-armed robots. A lot of robot research in the United States, he says, is focused on onearmed robots, but many tasks can’t be done with only one arm — unscrewing the cap off a jar, or hammering in a nail, for instance. “We’re trying to get two or more arms to work together efficiently and avoid banging each other - easy for humans, but not for robots,” said Mr. Roach, an associate professor of computer science. Like robotic motion, expert systems have generated considerable excitement in universities and industries because of the technology’s usefulness and market potential. POMME, the orchard management system to be tested soon by TECHNICAL EYE farmers, will save them the need to rely on extension specialists who must often travel from hundreds of miles away. “Expert systems hold the promise of revolutionizing the care of crops and farms,” said Prof. Roach, who developed POMME together with colleagues in the computer science and plant pathology departments.

I not only wish I had said that, but I wish I could live like that and reaHy believe that statement in my less-achieving moments. In our better moments, we know Dr. Poteat to on target There to always more in us than we can ever get out We feel an upward urge; a desire beyond what we am be or produce in oiir lives. And it is this “possibility greater than ability" that moves persons towardagoal that is unattainable. No major league player has ever batted the perfect .1000. Yet, it is precisely this illusive goal that has produced a Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron, a Ty Cobb and Pete Rose.

The procedure, a much improved method for delivering home oxygen, has been developed over the last six years, and was released to the community hospitals about a year ago. The initial test was performed by Dr. Henry Heimlich (of the life saving Heimlich Maneuver). Warren Memorial Hospital is using the system developed by The Institute for Transtracheal Oxygen Therapy.

Burke Jr. of Washington are pleased to announce the engagement of their daughter, Judy Ann to Steven David Alther, son of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Alther of Sperryville. Miss Burke is a 1970 graduate of Rappahannock High School. Mr. Alther graduated from Rappahannock in 1969. Both are presently employed by Aileen, Inc. in Flint Hill. A May 30th wedding is planned. I Dr. Kent Christopher, at Presbyterian Denver Hospital, Denver, Colo., are co-directors for the institute. 1 The patient can expect the following benefits from this procedure: improved oxygen levels at lower oxygen rates; improved comfort and convenience; improved appearance; increased mobility; improved sense of taste, smell and appetite, and improved quality of sleep. Patients should also see a reduction in their oxygen cost due to the oxygen conservation and a more efficient utilization of the oxygen delivered.

A demonstration of this procedure will be given at the open house to be held March 27 from 1-5 p.m. and March 29 from 1-3 p.m. in the Cardiopulmonary Department.

RAAC welco 11 es resident artist “Origins and Excavations” is the program planned by artist Valentina Dubasky during her stay in Rappahannock as the RAAC artist in residence. The program, which will include the Front Royal schools as well as the Rappahannock elementary and high school, will begin with Dubask/s arrival next Friday (April 3). Ms. Dubasky, whose primal images of animals are widely recognized and exhibited is, like many of Rappahannock’s local artists, fascinated by the insights primitive art provides us: examining our origins as it reveals not only the tools and habits but the fears and beliefs of our ancestors; and excavating in many meanings of the word - bringing up the past as well as bringing up our own primitive consciousness buried under layers of civilization and self-consciousness. The connection between the two types of excavation will be explored at a joint presentation with Ms. Dubasky and Joan Walker, Director of the Thunderbird Museum near Front Royal on Saturday, April 4. Ms. Dubasky will conduct workshops through April with children, senior citizens, community members and area artists, delving into art, archeology, and our rural past. The products of the workshops and contributions of individuals will be compiled near the end of the month in a mural. In creating her own art, Ms. Dubasky has used images based on prehistoric paintings from caves in France. Some of the related skills she has mastered are paper-making, mask-making and collage, all of which will be used in workshops during her stay here. According to Sally Nash, director of the RAAC artist’s forum, which sponsors the artists in residence program, Origins and Excavations is the theme of several ambitious local projects this year, including a special art exhibit and a dance performance with sculpture and original music, all by Rappahannock artists. All the events during the program are sponsored by RAAC through a grant from the Mid-Atlan Rappahannock Business & Service Directory Next Deadline April 23 Call 675-3338 to place your ad!

It serves you well all day, every day. But it also can have a dangerous side to it... here’s how to avoid some accidents that can occur when safety precautions go unheeded. Important Safety Tips • Never place electric cords where they’ll get tripped over or get excessive wear (such as under rugs, through doorways, etc.). • Inspect electrical cords often for wear-especially at the plugs and any connections. • Always follow the manufacturers’ instructions for operation and care of electrical appliances. • Immediately disconnect any appliance that sparks or stalls during operation. • Keep combustible materials (clothing, curtains, paper, etc.) away from lamps or heating devices. Safety i i • Never turn on an appliance while | standing on a wet floor and don't i put any electrical parts in water, i Electricity and water is a hazardous combination. For the same reason, don't use an electric lawn mower or portable electric tools in damp or wet weather. • If you use a ladder (outside of your home) be careful to keep it clear of any overhead wires. • Never let your children fly a kite or model airplane near electric lines. • If you see electric wires hanging down or on the ground, do not drive or walk near them! Even if they don’t appear to be live, they may still be dangerous. Notify the police department and your electric company immediately! If possible have someone stay at the scene to warn others away until help arrives. i Potomac Edison A Part of the Allegheny Power System^^

Sport Good fishing reported What a beautiful day for opening day of trout season. In all the years of many opening days for trout seasons since I arrived in Virginia in 1956,1 can’t ever remember a better day. On past opening days I’ve seen rain, wind, sleet, snow, low water, high water, and muddy water. But if a dedicated trout fisherman had placed an order for a perfect opening day’s weather and stream conditions, this past Saturday would have been the product. Most of the opening day anglers I talked with said that in spite of large crowds, tangled lines, and a few dunkings from the slick rocks, most caught a few fish, some limits were taken, and everyone had great fun and a most enjoyable day. Statewide weather was good to great, and all indications are that spring fishing is in full swing. With continuing stocking of trout, and plenty of water in the streams, rivers and lakes, trout fishermen could have a banner year. This past week the Virginia Commission on Game and Inland Fisheries conducted meetings to determine some limits and length of seasons for the hunting seasons of 1988-89 and 1989-90. When the new seasons and limits are voted into law, I will let you know how we made out. On a more local basis, many area anglers have been taking advantage of the spring frenzy. * My friend, Walter Metts of Woodbridge, caught a limit of trout Saturday before noon. He fished elbow to elbow with many other trout fishermen on Passage Creek in Fort Valley and found plenty of trout in the 8 to 12-inch range and a few nice rainbows up to 14 inches. Chuck Fredrikson of Alexandria caught 30 crappie up to 1V% pounds at Lake Anna. He caught most of the crappie on a lure called the roadrunner. Jim Duncan of Fairfax caught five bass totalling 17 pounds and a 2V«-pound chain pickeral, also in Lake Anna. Guide Gene Hord took Charlie Haig of Fairfax out on Lake Anna to Outdoors I Bob McMeans 439-8364 take a number of nice largemouth up to 7VS> pounds. On the James River citation-size smallmouth are coming in on a regular basis. Thirteen-year-old Keith Spearks of Richmond used a live crawfish to take a 4-pound 5-ounce citation smallmouth. Others up to 5 pounds 2 ounces were recorded this past week. Area ponds are yielding good bass. Steve Willis of Rappahannock County fished a secret honey hole in a private farm pond and took bass weighing 6,8 and 10 pounds on a pign-jig. On the Potomac River, guide Charlie Taylor says fishing is excellent. White perch are showing up in catches on minnows. Crappie to 2 pounds are in abundance in Fletcher’s Cove. Largemouth bass are in 15 to 17-foot deep water along dropoffs and are taking smoke grubs and spinnerbaits worked slowly. In the upper Potomac above Great Falls many smallmouth have been taken on small minnows and jigs. Seneca Creek and Edwards Ferry are especially good. Smith Mountain Lake is showing signs of spring with walleye to 7 pounds, stripers to 25 pounds, and crappie in the 1- to 2- pound class. A few nice smallmouth to 3 Vi pounds are mixed in with good numbers of crappie on small minnows, walleye on bucktails, and stripers on trolled bucktails and live shad.

Rappahannock New* photo/Cindy Matna DOUG SMITH SHOWS GOOD promise on the mound for the Panthers this year, according to Coach Gary Leake. Despite his best effort, Rappahannock dropped a tough 9-5 ballgame to Stonewall-Jackson Tuesday afternoon. Panthers even record at 1-1 By LOU HATTER Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer Following a season-opening 14-9 win against Randolph-Macon Academy in Front Royal Saturday, the Rappahannock High School varsity baseball team lost a hard-fought game to Stonewall Jackson in its home opener Tuesday. Though the score made Saturday’s game sound like a real slugfest for the Panthers, Coach Gary Leake said that the team suffered from opening day jitters, and that he was glad to get opening day behind him. Of RMA’s nine runs, five were unearned, Coach Leake said, adding that the Panthers committed seven errors, which he attributed to inexperience. “It was the first day with a young team.” He said he was glad of the victory, and expected that some game experience would eliminate those early season butterflies. Doug Smith got credit for the win Saturday, striking out six batters in three innings in the process. Matthew Settle, in his first varsity appearance, pitched six innings and allowed only four hits. Leading the Rappahannock scoring attack were Tony Clark and Wesley Jenkins, both of whom went three for five at the plate. On Tuesday, Stonewall took an early lead, scoring two runs in the first and another four in the second inning. The game remained 6-0 for several innings before the Panthers scratched back, scoring four runs in the fourth and another lone tally in the fifth to bring the game within reach. Their effort went for naught, however, as the visitors hit the Panthers for another three runs in the top of the sixth, then hung on against a determined Rappahannock team, refusing to allow the Panthers any more scores on their way to a 9-5 victory. Leading the Panthers in hitting Tuesday were Doug Smith, who went 2 for 4 with a single, a double and one RBI. Wesley Jenkins also contributed two RBIs, while going 1 for 3 at bat. Doug Smith was tagged with the loss after pitching three innings. Thomas Williams, in his first action as a reliever, pitched two innings, giving up three runs. Greg Smith finished up, “and was very impressive,” according to Coach Leake. Despite the loss, Coach Leake was optimistic about the Panther effort in both games. “Fighting back from that 6-0 deficit says a lot for a young team,” he said. “It would have been easy for them to just fold in that situation. I’m pleased with the performance of the team overall, especially being a young team. “They stayed in the game against a team which is ranked high in the district, and which returned eight starters. That’s a positive sign for the future.” The Panthers’ next three games are on the road. They face Central on Friday, a team which has just dropped from AA to A, and which Coach Leake expects to give the district a rough time, if the success of their basketball team is any indication, he said. Tuesday finds the Panthers on the road against Strasburg. Both gajnes begin at 4 p.m. Following a game April 7 at Page County, the Panthers return home on Friday, April 10, against George Mason. That game begins at 4:30 p.m. Read ®fjt Rappafyannocfe iietos for local news r Refinancing highinterest mortgages at today’s lower rates pays off at Virginia Savings Bank in more ways than one.

Hunters guilty of park poaching Shenandoah National Park Superintendent Ronald Wrye recently announced several convictions for illegal hunting within Shenandoah National Park. After appearing in U.S. Magistrate’s Court, five persons have been convicted of hunting or weapon offenses which occurred in recent months. Ethan Shifflett of Route B, Box 8A, Stanardsville, Va., was convicted of hunting within the Park. Mr. Shifflett was the target of a Federal grand jury investigation resulting from a deer being illegally taken from along U.S. Highway 33 in November 1986. Mr. Shifflett pleaded guilty to two Federal offenses including hunting and transporting illegally taken wildlife. U.S. Magistrate B. Waugh Crigler set a fine totalling $400 and placed Mr. Shifflett on one year probation. Each offense carries a maximum fine of $500 and/or up to six months in jail. Park officials stated that “poaching” or taking wildlife from the Park is a constant problem, and that illegal hunting activities along roads such as Highway 33 have been a particular problem this year. This case involved one of several poaching incidents which occurred at this location and one currently under investigation by Park Rangers. Superintendent Wrye pointed out that this case was initiated based upon information received from a witness who was passing by at the time of the incident. In exchange for valuable eyewitness evidence, the /|P«rk waS 1a/i|ing td keep the per-' son’s identity confidential. In other cases, Kevin L. Simmons, 22, and Craig E. Vandevender, 24, both of Manassas, were apprehended during the early morning hours on November 19, 1986, at Hawksbill Gap by Ranger James Surdukowski. In a trial Dec. 18 before Magistrate Crigler, Vandevender and Simmons were found guilty of illegal possession of firearms . Each was fined $50 plus court costs, placed on probation for one year and prohibited from entering the Park for one year. A third person in this group is being sought at this time. Mark Slabaugh, 47, of Fairfax, and Douglas Crooks, 30, of Triangle, were apprehended on Nov. 18,1986, in the Rapidan area by Rangers William Quinn and John Segar. Magistrate Crigler found Crooks guilty of illegal hunting in a trial Dec. 18. Crooks was fined $200 plus court costs, required to pay $200 replacement cost for the deer, placed on one year probation and prohibited from entering the Park during his probation period. On Jan. 15, 1987, Slabaugh was also convicted of illegal hunting, and ordered to pay $200 replacement costs for the deer Persons with information concerning illegal hunting activities in the Park should call Park Rangers at 703-999-2243. All calls and information will remain confidential. Superintendent Wrye noted that Rangers will continue to vigorously pursue and prosecute persons who hunt or attempt to hunt wildlife in ' the Park.

Rappahannock & it* Journal i New immigration laws affect many farmers The Immigration Reform and Control Act passed by Congress in October 1986 could have a major impact on Virginia agriculture. Virginia will be among the more important states in terms of the act’s impact on agriculture. This assessment is based on the number of foreign workers used to harvest apples, tobacco, vegetables and other laborintensive crops in the state. The act is designed in part to compel fanners and other employer: to hire American workers or lawfu foreign workers. The Immigratior and Naturalization Service (INS; has been apprehending aboul 100,000 illegal aliens in agriculture each year, a number larger than that in any other industry. The act provides for a six-month education and 12-month warning period. After that, farmers who hire undocumented workers could face WithThis Card Up Your Sleeve Ifou Can Bank Without The Banker!

Many Virginia farmers face difficult alternatives. They can risk being fined or jailed, they can switch to less labor-intensive crops, they can try to recruit domestic workers, or they recruit seasonal foreign workers who have permits issued by the | Department of Justice. The Immigration Reform and Control Act legalizes the status of foreign workers who have been here continuously since Jan. 1,1982. Workers who arrived since 1980 or who have gone back and forth between the United States and their native country are slated to be deported. The only way they can come back legally is through the new H-2 Temporary Foreign Worker Program. Farmers may want to check into the H-2 program for seasonal labor but past experience with similar programs indicate they will face a lot of delays and red tape. Workers hired under this program must be paid minimum wages, and they must be housed and transported according to prescribed regulations. Farmers who hire them should be willing to accept inspections by governmenttype persons. The INS suggests that in order to avoid potential problems, farmers hire registered crew leaders when employing foreign workers. Also, farmers should check the documentation of the crew leaders and the workers. YOUR MONEY ORYOUR LIFE. When you give to the Red Cross, you take on a great responsibility saving thousands of lives.

Owners Will and Carolyn Brown offer a full line of home appliances, as well as service on all makes. Brown’s Appliance opens in Flint Hill With the opening of Brown’s Appliance in Flint Hill, Rappahannock County has gained its first full service appliance store. And judging from the first month’s business, said owner Will Brown, county residents found the store just what they needed. With an inventory which includes anything from a 20 cubic foot Kelvinator refrigerator-freezer to a Hoover vacuum cleaner or a Sunbeam portable electric mixer, customers can find just about anything they need in home appliances. The real difference at Brown’s, however, is in the service. “Appliances are a lot like cars,” Mr. Brown said. “It doesn’t matter what make or model you have, if it breaks down and you can’t fix it, and promptly, it does you no good.” And Mr. Brown does have some experience at fixing appliances. After 17 years as a repairman with Tolson’s Appliance in Warrenton, he spent several years working for IBM in Manassas. But he just couldn’t get away from fixing broken appliances on the side. “Service will be the backbone of the business,” he said. His wife Carolyn will manage the store, and he plans to concentrate on service - not just what they sell, but just about anything. He said that if emergency service is needed on a refrigerator or VIDEO DEN OF CULPEPER “Your Family Video Store” SPRING CELEBRATION TUESDAY and THURSDAY Use a regular discount movie rental coupon on Thursday and receive a raincheck for a FREE ONE (1) DAY RENTAL good on any Tuesday or Thursday!

(Closed Sunday) J freezer, he will do the job, even if it means going out in the middle of the night. And if he can’t fix it, he’ll plug in a unit in the store and put the food in that until he can get the necessary parts. “I just can’t see anybody losing all that food,” he explained. He related a story about going on a "house call,” and after fixing the stove, which was what the call was for, he fixed a broken washing machine. "Then she asked me if I knew anything about garage door openers,” he recalled. “I said I didn’t, and she replied, ‘Well, don’t you think you should?’ ” So Mr. Brown fixed the garage door opener. Mr. Brown said that he will service any brand of appliance, and if parts are needed, he can get them too. "I felt there was a great need for someone in the county to do service, and provide parts for the people who live here.” With new appliances, Mr. Brown said that delivery, installation and a demonstration are part of the package — just another courtesy to his customers. The Browns also pointed out that because they are a small, familyowned business, they can save their customers money on sales and service over larger companies. They don’t have the costly overhead which often runs up the bills at large stores. While Carolyn Brown is managing the store, daughter Amy will be doing the bookkeeping. And when son Patrick graduates from high school this year, he will join his dad in the service end of the business. Another son, Roger, also attends school in Rappahannock. . Mrs. Brown is a native of Rappahannock, and Mr. Brown’s family still lives in Marshall, where he grew up. He is a member of several community organizations, including the Flint Hill Volunteer Fire Department. Having his own appliance store is something Mr. Brown has wanted' for several years, but.itka dreara he* admits not everybody thought would come true. Now that it’s happened, though, "I feel just as happy as I can be . . . ITn back in appliances because I enjoy it - the idea of someone being happy from what I do.” rmansB LIVESTOCK BCBUII INCORPORATED Regular Sales Every Tuesday HORSE SALE 2nd Sat, 1 p.m., Every Month STATE GRADE FAT CATTLE 1st Tu—1 p.m. Every Month 1 Mile East Of Marshall Rt. 55 364-1566 In addition to our regular tale April 7V*. wo will have 50 Charolalt Cows with calvoa at aids consigned tram OWtWflW.

As a convicted felon, the mere possession of a firearm by Albert Gatewood is illegal, and both he and his brother denied on the stand that he had a gun that night. His mother Vivian testified that she had not seen a gun during the time that he was in her house. Under cross-examination by Mr. Luke, Reginald Gatewood admitted that he had a pistol in his truck, and that he put it in his pocket when he got out of the truck on Rt. 622, “because I didn’t know what he (Mr. Veeney) had in the car ... I didn’t point the gun at him.” Asked if he saw his brother Albert with a gun at any time, Reginald replied, “No.” “Would it surprise you,” asked Mr. Luke, “to learn that three witnesses have testified under oath that Albert had a gun?” “I did not see it,” Reginald Gatewood replied firmly. In response to a question by Mr. Luke, Mr. Gatewood said that he did not know that his brother was not supposed to have a gun. “Did you see Albert hold a gun?” Mr. Luke inquired. “No, I did not... I didn’t watch him the whole time,” he replied again. “Could he have had a gun?” the Commonwealth’s Attorney insisted. “I did not see it,” was Hie reply. “Could he have put a gun on Jerome Veeney’s nose?” Mr. Luke asked. “He could have - I did not see it,” Mr. Gatewood replied. Under cross-examination by Frank Reynolds, Albert Gatewood’s attorney, Wanda Fuller said that she had not seen him with a weapon at Mrs. Gatewood’s house. ' Later, on Rt. 622, she told the court that “he told us to get out of the car - we did. Then he accused Jerome of sleeping with me in front of his daughter.” Albert then told her to leave, and when she refused, she said he asked, “Do you want to stay instead of him?” “I asked Albert not to hurt Jerome,” Ms. Fuller testified. “He said he was not going to hurt him - that he just wanted to talk to him.” Although she appeared as a witness for the Commonwealth, following Mr. Reynolds’ cross-examination Mr. Luke attempted to impeach her testimony. He cited several discrepancies between her testimony in court and a written statement which she had given to Capt. Ed Streapy of the Rappahannock Sheriffs Department shortly after the incident. In court, Ms. Fuller testified that she had not seen or heard anything as she stood outside the Pine Knot YOUR MONEY ORYOUR LIFE. When you give to the Red Cross, you take on a great responsibility: saving thousands of lives. Maybe even your own. ff Inn after Albert Gatewood walked down the dirt road toward where Mr. Veeney’s car was parked. Reading from her written ^ statement, Mr. Luke said, "Then Albert Gatewood picks up a rock from in front of the Pine Knot and goes back down ... I heard glass break M Holding the statement in the air, Mr. Luke asked, “Which of these is the truth?” “That,” Ms. Fuller replied, pointing at the statement. “This is?” Mr. Luke asked again, brandishing the statement. “Yes,” she replied, her eyes fixed on the rail of the witness box. Reading from the statement again, Mr. Luke continued, “. . . Then Albert came around to my side with the gun. Jerome was already out of the car. Then he went over to Jerome and pointed the gun, told him if he said anything he would blow his brains out. He told me he was going to make me love him - that Jerome was going to leave.” “Which is correct?” Mr. Luke asked again. “That, what is written,” Ms. Fuller replied, her composure somewhat shaken. “I want to say something,” she said, apparently attempting to explain the discrepancy. Mr. Luke quickly cut her off, saying, “Mr. Reynolds will have the opportunity to ask any questions he thinks appropriate.” Under re-crossexamination, Mr. Reynolds asked, “Did you sign that statement because you saw a gun or because Jerome told you he had one?” “I saw a gun,” Ms. Fuller replied, “the same gun his ex-girlfriend bought for him. She should be behind bars too - because she shouldn’t have bought it for him - he is a convicted felon. I know it was the same gun.” RAY t CANNON CO.. INC.
