Rappahannock News, April 23, 1987

vrmsiA state ltbsast Lee Bird will seek Hampton District seat By LOU HATTER Rappahannock Newi Staff Wrhcr “As a citizen of Rappahannock, as a retired lawyer, as a former administrative judge in the federal service, I have an abiding belief that government can be both competent, responsible and rational,” said Lee Bird, in announcing his intention to seek election to the Board of Supervisors as Hampton District’s representative. “If elected, I would work toward making it so.” “It’s been on mind for the better port of a year,” he added in explaining his decision to run. "I had hoped that it might be someone else,” but when no one else turned up, Mr. Bird decided to offer himself as a candidate. Mr. Bird said that his general concept of Rappahannock County is that “happily, we have a diverse society: people who were bom here, grew up and have chosen to stay; and a majority of others who have come from elsewhere and settled. I would hope that diversity can be maintained — there is room for it — we have to be mutually tolerant and accepting.” Mr. Bird is a member of the latter group. He and his wife Diana bought property, what is now Horseshoe Hollow Farm, on the Fodderstack Road in 1967. In 1967 they built a house on the property. In 1976, foQowing Mr. Bird’s retirement from his law practice, they became fulltime residents. “And,” he added, “we intend to stay here. ” He said that he feels that there are no problems facing the county which can’t be solved, “if we address them properly. That LEE BIRD requires the development of a consensus, as well as timely consideration of the problem. I think that all the diverse elements of the community can work together to keep the county as it is: rural, open and attractive.” Perhaps his legal background, Mr. Bird continued, influences his perception that process is a crucial element in the function of a democracy. “I favor open, flair and responsible government.” He said that he would advocate holding meetings at night, “when working people can attend.” He added that he would like to see the board’s agenda published and posted on the courthouse bulletin board the {Continuedon Page 18) Town plans clean up day for this Saturday Taking a page from RALLY’S (Rappahannock Anti-Litter League and You!) book, the Town of Washington has scheduled a clean-up day for Saturday. Mayor Dean Morehouse said that the spring cleaning will be held rain or shine. He requested that volunteers meet at the courthouse at 10 a.m., to coordinate the effort, although residents are of course welcome to choose their own sites to clean.

Kearney, Belyea repeat wins By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Undeterred by a threatening sky, Culpeper’s Tim Kearney and Kim Belyea of Winchester took top honors in the ninth running of the Fodderstack Classic 10-Kilometer Road Race Saturday. Mr. Kearney bested his winning time last year by 31 seconds, breaking the tape to finish first overall in a time of 33:27. Though he easily beat second-place Tom Weber of Lorton, who finished with a time of 34:43, Mr. Kearney failed to break Steve Pinard’s course record of 31:26, set in stifling 90-degree heat in 1985. Ms. Belyea, who holds the course record for women with her 1984 time of 36:46, took home the women’s open title for the third time last weekend. This year she ran 38:25. Second place in the women’s open division went to Rappahannock’s Lisa Currie, in a time of 44:35. Ms. Currie also won the Eva L. Smith Memorial, awarded to the first male and female Rappahannock residents to finish. And on the men’s side, the Smith Memorial went, for the seventh straight year, to Frank Reynolds, in a time of 37:36. Mr. Reynolds held off RCHS track and cross-country star Marley Hay, who finished second in the Smith division and first in his age group (19th overall) with a time of39:00. “It was a heckuva race for four miles,” Mr. Reynolds recounted. “At Horseshoe Hollow Farm (at the base of Tom Lee’s Hill) he had me by 10 yards.” “I ran with him, led him the first three miles,” Mr. Hay agreed. “I was sorta hurting, but I kept up.” They described a battle for position as the two climbed the half-mile incline, this year as always the bane of Fodderstack competitors. Mr. Reynolds managed to open a lead of ms own otabout JtO ys«4?.“h«* said, but as they ascended the incline — which steepens as it rises — Mr. Hay chipped the lead away and moved slightly ahead of Mr. Reynolds as they neared the top of the hill. “I stayed right behind him,” Mr. Hay explained, “and caught him up at the top of the mountain.” As the pair crested the hill and began the long downhill which most racers use to recuperate, Mr. Reynolds pushed ahead. “I could tell he was hurting at the top of the hill. I didn’t have anything left either,” he admitted, “but I wanted to get far enough ahead so that he wouldn’t think about trying to catch me coming into town.” “He took off downhill,” Mr. Hay said, “and I couldn’t keep up. I got a second wind at the bottom of the downhill — but by then he had 75 or 100 yards on me.” He added that the v Rappahannock News photot/Lou Hatter TIM KEARNEY, OF CULPEPER, breezed to his second straight Fodderstack win in 33:27. women’s open division for the third time, finishing with a time of 38:25. lack of distance training by the track team, which limits its long runs to three miles, probably hurt his endurance near the end of the race. “I’m not making excuses, though,” Mr. Hay quickly added. “He beat me.” As a graduating senior at RCHS, Mr. Hay was asked if he plans to return for the 10th running of the Fodderstack Classic and a rematch with Mr. Reynolds next year. “I’m not missing this one!” he replied. “I’ve got to beat him before long — before everyone says he got old!” Mr. Kearney, who had run the course both ways about two weeks ago during a 12-mile training run Planners find compromise for Sharp’s migrant camp By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Calling fruit production “the only viable agricultural industry for Rappahannock County right now” and insisting that local farm labor is “really a myth,” Newbill Miller led his fellow planning commissioners to a compromise recommendation on a migrant labor camp after a protracted debate at last Wednesday's public hearing. At issue is a special exception application from orchardist Alex Sharp to expand his existing camp in Harris Hollow to house 16 migrants and allow the facility to be used year round. (Mr. Sharp’s 1984 permit, clarified last year by the Board of Zoning Appeals, limits the camp to 10 migrants and specifies that they may be housed there only during the apple harvest season.) Until last year’s BZA ruling, Mr. Sharp conceded, the camp was used beyond the seasonal time limit and by more than 10 migrant laborers. “That clarification left us a little short of what we need to effectively operate,” said the orchardist, who farms about 400 acres of apples, primarily on leased property, and owns and runs the Sperryville apple packing and cold storage plant. The apple business is labor intensive, he told the planning commissioners. “We have to be able to get and keep good labor throughout the season. Housing is the key.” And the labor demand is not limited to the harvest months, he continued. Pruning begins in November and continues through April; then the blossoms on the trees are hand thinned. “We don’t need as many workers for that as we do for the harvest, but we do need some to get the job done,” he said, noting that his pruning crew now numbers about a dozen, half migrants and half local help. “They’ve been at it consistently since November and they’re not finished yet.” With a special exception permit, the workers - now staying in a rented house near Sperryville — could use the migrant facility, which includes a dormitory, bathhouse, kitchen and dining hall, Mr. Sharp said. “As a site, it’s pretty well screened,” he said, noting that the camp is 600 to 700 feet from the property line of neigh bors Henry and Meredith Gorfein with hills between it and their residence. According to Mr. Sharp, the facility was constructed for 16 but he initially sought a permit for 10 to avoid triggering stringent federal and state regulations and oversight of migrant housing. Those regulations come into play when more than 10 workers are involved. His new special exception application seeks to have the cap lifted to 16 for the harvest season only; for the rest of the year it would remain at 10. To questions from the planners, he said the camp would be restricted to adults but by law, female workers would have to be allowed since to bar them would constitute discrimination on the basis of sex. “Are there any year-round labor camps in this area?” asked Commissioner John Clark. “In Flint Hill there’s one they operate more or less year round,” Mr. Sharp replied. “There’s Clifton Miller’s,” added Chairman A. Y. Stokes. “It seems like there’d be more local labor available in the winter (for pruning),” said Commissioner David Fannon, noting that, like Commissioner Clark, he saw a problem with allowing the camp to be used year-round. “It’s a myth to think you can get good local help in Rappahannock to work on a farm,” maintained Commissioner Miller, himself a farmer with a beef cattle operation. Mr. Sharp said he has 15,000 trees to prune. “It takes as much as an hour for one tree, and we have five months to do it in.” Speaking in favor of Mr. Sharp’s application, trucker Steve Critzer said, “The apple industry has supported my business for the last four, five years,” and by bringing an influx of people to the county every fall and employing local workers at the packing house, it supports other Rappahannock businesses as well. In considering the migrant camp proposal, Mr. Critzer contended, the commissioners must also con(Continued on Page 18) with several local runners, including John Borgens (third in the Smith division, 39:58) and Mr. Reynolds, said the found the course “tough as always.” He added that it seemed a little more humid than last year, but that the day was good for running. Mr. Kearney used the race as a tune-up for the Pittsburgh Marathon, which he plans to run the first weekend in May. Mr. Borgens and another runner from Culpeper, John Lindner, will join Mr. Kearney at the start in Iron City. Dennis Wingfield, a teacher at Rappahannock High School and perennial Fodderstack competitor, requested pledges toward the ^ . purchase of a TV and VCR as a study aid for RCHS students. He reported Tuesday that, although a final tally was not yet in, it appeared enough money had been raised to buy both pieces of equipment. “It’s pretty lonely out there for those 6.2 miles,” Mr. Wingfield said, “and 10,000 thoughts cross your mind. I just want to say that those good people who contributed to our cause helped me make it to the finish line.” He added that he couldn’t boast about his time, about a minute off last year’s pace, but quipped, MI’m (Continued on Page 10) _ Mv^uwckNmphaiatfCWyKWMn WITH THE ROCK MILLS intersection closed to traffic because of high water... . . .

You have decided to buy a two-family house jointly with a relative. The price is right, but only one half of the house will be available at the time of purchase — the seller’s half. The tenant still has six months to go on his lease and plans to remain. You want to occupy both units at the time of purchase. Is there a solution? Since you do not desire to wait out die rental term, a solution to the problem could be a lease buy-out. The tenant under lease will obviously know that the lease will not be renewed, however, he might be agreeable to vacate if offered a cash inducement to do so. Lease buyouts are very common in commercial real estate and might be applicable to this situation. By purchasing property with the assistance of an experienced residential agent, you gain considerable advantage in working with someone who can negotiate both with the seller and with existing tenants to suit your objective.

proposed for Blue Rock Farm Also at last Wednesday’s meeting, the Planning Commissioners: The migrant worker camp stole the spotlight and the time at last Wednesday's Planning Commission meeting, but at the dose of the 3Vi hour session, zoning administrator Jolrn McCarthy broke the news of a mayor — for little Rappahannock County — commercial development proposal. • “A little Inn,” said Commissioner David Fannon, comparing the plana for a lodge at Blue Rock Farm to the internationally famous Inn at Little Washington. _ The preliminary application submitted by Jean and Bernard Campagne calls for a five-room bed-andbreakfast on the 112-acre farm across Route 211 from Rappahannock County High School. (RCHS sports fans will recognize the site as the school’s old cross country course. ) , « lne Lampagnes, who operate a French restuarant in Old Town Alexandria, also propose three small dining rooms with combined seating for 50 as an adjunct to the bed-andbreakfast. As "part and parcel of the lodge,” the restaurant could be allowed in an agricultural zone by a special exception permit from the Board of Supervisors, Mr. McCarthy noted. For their Ibarcq Lodge, the Campagnes plan to renovate existing structures, according to the zoning administrator. The only new construction may come at some future point with the addition of a winery, he told the commissioners, noting that the property owners have planted vineyards of Seyval, Chardonnay and Cabernet grapes. The site plan submitted with the preliminary application for a special exception permit shows extensive landscaping, driveway improvements and parking more than sufficient to satisfy zoning ordinance requirements. Mr. McCarthy reported that the development plan has been forwarded to the highway department’s resident engineer for review and predicted that Don Askew will recommend that a deceleration lane be provided for westbound traffic. As a preliminary application, the Campagnes’ proposal required no action from the Planning Commission. When a final application is made for the necessary special exception permit, it will come back to the commissioners for a public hearing and recommendation and then go to the Board of Supervisors for a second hearing and action. • voted unanimously to recommend approval of a special exception permit for Bruce Vierling to subdivide a nine-acre lot from his family’s 325-acre contiguous holding near the village of Flint Hill. The actual parcel from which the lot will be cut is 224.72 acres. In approving the subdivision, the commissioners noted it will be considered in judging the density involved with any fature development of the balance of the agriculturally zoned land. • Voted unanimously to recommend approval for a resubdivision of two lots (totalling 81.29 acres) into three lots (27.7 acres, 25 acres and 28.5 acres) for fellow Planning Commissioner Werner Krebser, provided the existing dwelling unit, density is maintained. Dr. Krebser abstained from the vote. RAAC presents Claudia Schmidt concert May 2 If the words of many critics are to be believed, listeners at the May 2 performance of Claudia Schmidt are destined for a magical evening. RAAC’s (Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community) 8 p.m. offering of Ms. Schmidt’s music at the Gay Street Theater in Washington is a long anticipated event. Says Garrison Keillor, host of NPR’s Prairie Home Companion, of her contributions to his show: “When Claudia sings a song, it stays sung.” Claudia has performed professionally for ten years in the United States, Canada and Europe. Stereo Review awarded her second album, “Midwestern Heart,” an honorable mention as album of the year. There is no category for what has evolved as her style. She draws freely from all music that crosses her ears, and synthesizes into a focused and exciting concert that people never forget. There is active participation, and mostly there is a total inclusion of the audience into this musical journey that is daringly contoured and never the same from one concert to another. _ She works with the voice as “the original wind instrument” using sounds and words to create myriad textures to reach right into the heart. Tom Surowicz, of MinneapoJSS*. City "Pages describes her voice '‘with tBdfJe (Vords: “clear as a supper bell, strong as three-day-old tea.” Nat lrchloff, of 'The Progressive says: “She has a rainbow voice of such strength and tenderness that it would have been a sign, in the old fairy tales, of a special presence having attended her christening. When Claudia Schmidt is very good, she goes all the way through you.” She has a stunning range, and is at home on a traditional ballad as well as a lounge ballad.

BZA holds the fence In a short and routine session Tuesday morning, Rappahannock’s Board of Zoning Appeals held the fence, denying a request to drop a previously imposed requirement that a swimming pool at a bed-and-breakfast inn be enclosed. Barbara and Paul Mayville maintained that the pool fence, a condition of their special use permit for the bed-and-breakfast operation at Castleton Manor, was unnecessary since their clientele does not include children. However, the BZA ruled that as a commercial operation, the Mayvilles must ensure public safety, zoning administrator John McCarthy reported. In addition, Mr. McCarthy said, the zoning board members voiced concern about the potential for county liability should someone foil into the pool by accident and drown after the fencing requirement was lifted. The board also denied a request from Maurice Putnam of Amis8ville to raise the sign advertising his barbershop and flower business by 20 feet, finding the bigger sign out of character in a primarily residential neighborhood. In the only other business at Tuesday’s half-hour meeting, Mr. McCarthy reported that in administrative action allowed under the new zoning ordinance, he has extended the mobile home permit granted to Jeff and Jean Kastor of AmissviUe for an additional six months to give them time to complete construction of their house. WSA to landscape The Rappahannock Water and Sewer Authority, which operates the Sperryville sewerage treatment facility, announced that its contractor will return to Sperryville “sometime within the next 60 days” to re-grade and landscape around septic tanks which were installed last year as part of the sewerage treatment project. WSA secretary James E. Swindler II requested that any resident served by the WSA project who feels that grading or landscaping is necessary in the vicinity of their septic tank contact the WSA in writing by Friday, April 24.

Jeff Gatewood charged in Madison shooting Jeffrey Scott Gatewood, 22, of Washington, was arrested early Sunday morning and charged with murder, according to Lt. W. R. Jenkins of the Madison County Sheriffs Department. Lt. Jenkins said that the charge resulted from an incident which occurred Friday evening. He said that the Madison County dispatch center received a call at 7:27 p.m. Friday, which reported a shooting at a residence in Brightwood, on Rt. 29 north of Madison. The Madison Rescue Squad responded and found James (Big Red) Carter, 39, of Brandy Station, who had been shot once in the chest. Lt. Jenkins said the shooting apparently resulted from an argument earlier Friday afternoon. He said that the rescue squad attempted to revive Mr. Carter with CPR, but was unable to save him. Madison County Coroner Dr. A. E. Powell pronounced Mr. Carter dead at the scene. Lt. Jenkins said that, following an, investigation by the Madison County Sheriffs Department, a warrant was issued on Saturday charging Jeff Gatewood with first degree murder. He was also charged with use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. Rappahannock Sheriffs deputies Ray Jackson and Charles Jenkins arrested Gatewood about 2 a.m. Sunday. He is being held without bail n the Culpeper County Jail. A bond hearing has been set for April 28 in Madison County General District Court. Conviction on the murder charge carries a possible sentence of 20 years to life in prison. The firearms charge carries a mandatory twoyear prison sentence.

V—-' THURSDAY, APRIL 23,1987 Editorial You’re all winners At a road race, as at most sporting events, it’s easy to tell the winners. They’re the ones with the ear-to-ear grins, and often they carry trophies in recognition of their achievement. But is it really so easy to tell? The Fodderstack Classic is an occasion where everyone who participates is a winner. Just look at the smiles of accomplishment - and relief -- on the faces of the runners as they crossed the finish line. Or listen to the cheers, the shouts of encouragement, from the people who live along the Fodderstack Road, as they recognized a friend, a neighbor - or urged on a stranger who seemed to need a lift. And remember the efforts of the volunteer organizers, who worked untold hours during the winter and early spring. While the runners laid their training base, the race committee laid the groundwork which enables the race to go off without a hitch--year after year. Come race day, a small army of other volunteers decended on the starting line to serve as split timers, water table staffers, traffic controllers, registrars of late arrivals, all the myriad small tasks which go unnoticed to all but which make the difference between success and failure for an event like the Fodderstack. The Sheriff’s Department, the highway department, the Washington, Flint Hill and Sperryville Rescue Squads, they all pitched in as well to assure a smooth, safe event. And last, but certainly not least, the runners. Sure, the ones who go home with trophies are winners. But they’re not the only ones. Just ask any roadracing veteran: the Fodderstack Classic is a tough race course. Everyone, ' whatever their finishing time, who competes in that event is a winner. Congratulations to each and every one of you, whatever your contribution! We look forward to seeing you again next April. ‘Future Horizons9 asks input Virginians wanting to have an input into the Commonwealth’s policies in the 21st century can do so next month. A series of two meetings will be held at six locations across the state on two Saturdays, May 2 and 16, to examine “Future Horizons: Virginia in the Twenty-first Century.” The meetings, sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Virginia Educational Fund Inc., in cooperation with Extension’s community resource development program at Virginia Tech, are a result of the 1984 recommendations of the Commission on Virginia’s Future that was commissioned by Gov. Charles Robb. These recommendations, coupled with recent initiatives by Gov. Gerald L. Baliles, will be discussed, defined, and honed for implementation in the future, said Jean McCart of Blacksburg, project director for the women’s organization. Both May meetings will be held at Virginia Highlands Community College in Abingdon, Northside High School in Roanoke County, the Omni Hotel in Charlottesville, the Richmond Marriott, the Tidewater Community College in Virginia Beach, and the George Mason University Conference Center in Arlington. The May 2 meeting will look at education, health and human services, civic involvement, and economic development while the May 16 session will have discussions on government, justice, environment, and' transportation. All of the meetings will have the same format. There will be a final registration period between 9:15 and 9:50 a.m., a welcome and 45-minute look at the future as it applies to the topics to be examined, small group discussions, a summary, and a peek at what the future might hold. Each meeting is scheduled to end at 3:45 p.m. Each meeting will have a message from Gov. Baliles as well as involving representatives from the League, Extension, Virginia Tech, the Institute of Alternative Futures, and the Center for Innovative Technology. The $15 ($30 for both) registration fee includes briefing materials, coffee breaks, and lunch. Those who register prior to April 20 will receive advance materials to study before the meeting. It will be possible to register on the day of each session. Persons registering by mail are asked to indicate which of the six locations they will attend and list the four subjects in the order of their interest. Requests for additional information or registration forms can be sent to Future Horizons Project, Suite 224, 610 N. Main Street, Blacksburg, Va. 24060; or registrants can call Jean McCart at (703) 552-5625. Slaughter supports highways “I voted in favor of the HouseSenate compromise highway and mass transit bill that will distribute funds to the states for highways and mass transit projects,” Rep. D. French Slaughter Jr., said recently. He said that according to Federal law, Congress had to pass a bill in order to distribute the Federal highway trust funds to the states. These fiinds, which art earmarked for highway and mass transit projects, are raised by Federal gasoline taxes and do not include any general fund revenues. “The House and Senate deadlocked on a similar bill last year and the bill did not pass. Passage of the highway bill this year is necessary so the states can receive allocations from the Federal Highway Trust Fund for the budget year that began last October,” explained Rep. Slaughter. He added that the funds are needed in Virginia for highway and transit projects that have already been planned. These projects have been delayed for months due to Congressional inaction on this legislation, he said. Rappahannock Heritage Rappahannock News phottVLou Hatter THE F. T. VALLEY is beginning to show signs of spring, in this view looking west from the top of Turkey Mountain. Old Mill Stables is at lower right. VI Letters to the editor Sympathy — but • • • To the editor: * I sympathize with my Amissville neighbors who don’t want a landfill located in our area. But let’s face it: we sort of live in a dump already. Just look at our roadsides: they are about the most trash-strewn in the county. And I seriously doubt it was all put there by people from somewhere else. No, this is not justification for siting the landfill; the concerns about its potential impacts are valid. However, it does seem paradoxical to raise questions about a controlled waste facility while apparently being oblivious to the environmental degradation caused by spreading similar garbage all across our landscape. We already have odoriferous litter in proximity to our residences and perhaps polluting ourwells - tons of it. ROBERT T. DENNIS Amissville The answer? Recycle To the editor: I would like to respond to last week’s editorial, “An Imperfect World,” in the Rappahannock News. Participating in “somebody else’s trash-to-energy program” (a garbage incinerator which recovers energy from heat produced) may not be all it’s cracked up to be. Certainly not for the residents of the communities where these incinerators are to be located: In numerous areas of Virginia, as well as nation-wide, citizen groups are up in arms about the threat from toxic contamination of incinerator emissions - in the same way that folks in the Amissville area now feel threatened. The debate has not been resolved, but many expert toxicologists fear greatly for the effect on public health of the dioxins and other chemicals created in the combustion processes; the other part of the debate is about how much can be or must be filtered out of the smokestacks to be “safe.” These are difficult questions, but may not seem to matter much to us here in Rappahannock, safely out of range, we suppose. What will be of great concern to us, though, will be the ash that we have been told will be brought back for landfilling. This ash residue from the incineration process may be “sterile” as last weeks piece said, but it is certainly not harmless. Sterile means free from microorganisms. It does not mean free from lead, cadmium, arsenic and a list of other heavy metals that are very toxic to humans - and that’s just what has been discovered in recent months by the Environmental Protection Agency and other investigators. Bringing this material back to Rappahannock to be landfilled opens up the potential of these materials, sooner or later, contaminating the groundwater. Despite the reassurance about the fishing hole next to :he landfill (in the editorial), recent nistory suggests that landfills are probably all going to leak and fail sooner or later. Some of the supposedly best-designed federal hazardous waste landfills have failed very recently. In addition, this fine ash will disperse in the wind as it is being lumped at the landfill site, creating in airborne health hazard, and regional soil contamination. There is a ;ood possibility that incinerator ash may be declared by the EPA to be Hazardous waste, as one state has already done. This would boost the :osts of disposal tremendously, requiring the ash to be placed in a hazardous waste facility, of which there are currently none in Virginia. Rappahannock faces many of the same choices as cities and counties all over. As elsewhere, a comprehensive recycling program should become an important part of our considerations. Most of what goes into a landfill is nonsense - it can be eliminated, reused, recycled in many different ways. A sophisticated waste management program that emphasizes advances in recycling techniques and technologies will mean lower waste management costs, a dramatic increase in lifespan of the landfill and should keep out and divert to other solutions the locallygenerated hazardous wastes that figure strongly in groundwater contamination in numerous cases. Finding the best site for a landfill is only the first step. To protect public health and the environment, and to reduce costs of waste disposal, we need to begin now to develop a comprehensive waste management program for the county.

The home hasn’t failed To the editor: I have to disagree with Robert Eastham. I think he could have written a much better, first rate article on educating for character than did his former colleague, whose article appeared on April 16. As it was, the article is a sexist (“We even know what caused it.. .feminism,”), ageist (“Children aren’t reasonable. . .”), fascist, “Bad students, children who won’t get with the program, have to be removed.”) backlash! Like the grown-ups who weren’t able to live like siblings with fellow humans having other racial characteristics so they dumped the whole mess of integration into the schools onto their (or other people’s) children, Doctor Terry Hammons would return us to the days of physical and psychological abuse of children by their teachers in the name of discipline because “Children are bad,” even though he admits that they are bad “for the same reason that adults are bad.” He reminds me of the psychiatrists of the 1960s who told their patients who had been drivein crazy by their local moral sensitivities which were outraged by an immoral government and society. . .to adjust! (“Children that are told repeatedly that their nation and way of life are no good will see little reason to subscribe to the virtues it embraces.”) I just wish that Mr. Eastham would send Dr. Hammons Joseph McCaffrey’s “A Column” from the editorial page of the Culpeper News for the same week, the part which ends: “In my many years as a reporter I have never seen so much corruption; sadly from men and women we would expect to be honest and upright.” And which speaks of a “malignant malaise that begins at the White House on Pennsylvania Avenue and works its way down through our society.” A friend of mine in California recently sent me some religious literature she had come across, from a New Age group which says that it has been revealed to them that what they call “critical mass” was reached on Easter this year, by which they mean that a majority of the planet’s citizens have been converted to truth within, which readies the world for the reception of the dispensation of a spiritual age. This accords with what I’ve been saying about 1987, and the fact that the Mayan calender ends this year - implying a new beginning. This might be better visualized as the start of summer (as it often is): We’ve passed through the time of pretty, but insubstantial blossoms - the New Age ideas which haven’t gotten off the ground. And now the fruit is set and beginning to ripen. Long ago Chinese wise men understood that when evil men were at the center of things in the government, the nation would stagnate and evil-doers would flourish everywhere. Spanking school children will not cure this, nor will forcing “traditional values” down their throats! Life is a range of moral options. Ambiguity about right and wrong exists. Jesus redefined the meaning of such immoral acts as murder and adultery, a fact which hasn’t sunk into the brains of his Christian preachers. How much easier it is to proclaim the black and white written version of the commandments etched in stone rather than the purified heart! The cleansed mind which seeks its own relative, situational values using internal spiritual guidance, which acts out of faith. Any morality not based upon a living connection with the Godhead within is the “way which seems good to man but which leads to destruction.” Morality education is not the job of the schools, it is the job of the spirit! The Trinity Age, with its feminist vanguard, is coming on apace. Its family virtues can hardly be instilled (that is, taught by example) in institutions. God is our Parent and everyone is a sibling in this cosmic, divine family. Children who spend more time at home (and don’t do homework) will learn how to live with their siblings better than if they spent the majority of their young, waking lives in classes. The Bible says to raise up a child in the way he should go and he will not depart from it when he is old. Children who are raised up in schools, end up in jail, corporations, and/or old-age hospices. Turning back to the past for answers is building sand dams against the tide of goodness rising in our midst. A noncompulsory, smorgasbord style education in the lower levels as well as in college would be a step in the right direction. Character will and does grow in the home environment. The home hasn’t failed, nor has the family, and when schools set their captives free they will all come into their own again. PETER B. HOLLEY, Minister Heavenly Earth Revival (HER) Boston Help for scleroderma To the editor: I am contacting your newspaper because since childhood I have suffered from a rare, debilitating and potentially fatal disease called scleroderma.

In our search for answers and support we eventually located the United Scleroderma Foundation. Not only did we receive information, we received a renewed “hope” that we were no longer alone.

W aste water treatment More efficient, less expensive A major obstacle in the battle against pollution of the nation’s rivers, lakes, and the Chesapeake Bay was cleared in February. The clean water bill passed by Congress will provide $20 billion over the next eight years to build sewage treatment plants and related projects. The technology has certainly improved for removing two pollutants which have caused the most concern recently to environmentalists and fishermen in the Chesapeake Bay — nitrogen and phosphorus, which come from fertilizers, and municipal and industrial wastes. Most existing wastewater treatment plants have been designed to remove only organic matter using bacteria to eat the sewage. (Organic matter is living or dead material, including microorganisms, made up of carbon-based compounds.) Oxygen must be supplied to the treatment systems for the process to produce non-polluting carbon dioxide and water, which are released into the environment. The bacteria in the waste sludge are incinerated, or treated so that the sludge may be used as compost or fbr crop irrigation. Organic matter aside, phosphorus is being removed in some treatment plants, including those in four areas in Virginia - the Potomac River basin, the Occoquan basin, the Chickahominy basin, and the city of Roanoke. These methods are costly - a lot of energy is needed to pump in oxygen, chemicals have to be bought, and their use results in increased quantities of sludge. Moreover, nitrogen pollutants are not removed and are discharged. Recent research in the United States, however, has shown that bacteria can be used to get rid of nitrogen and phosphorus, as well as organic matter, in a process that costs less than the conventional one. The technology was developed in South Africa, and improved by Virginia Tech civil engineering Professor Clifford Randall and colleagues Kenneth Branna at The Citadel and Larry Benefield at Auburn University. The one-year experiment was completed last August, and the project is now in the final stages of design. “The real advantage of a plant with the new technology,” Dr. Randall says, “is that it’s cheaper to operate because it needs less oxygen.” In addition, the volume of sludge is reduced because no chemicals are used. The new technique passes and recycles sewage through three bacteria-laden tanks, the first two containing no oxygen. These remove the bulk of the organic matter while producing very little sludge. The third, an aerobic tank, completes the job. Meanwhile, nitrogen pollutants are converted into ammonia, then nitrates, which are recycled into one of the tanks. Bacteria break down the nitrates into harmless nitrogen gas which is vented, and oxygen which is used by the bacteria. Phosphorus is also taken up by the bacteria which are then removed with the sludge. The proposed new plant at Norfolk, which would process 50 million gallons a day and cost about $60 million, would be the first in Virginia to be designed and built using the new technology. (There are probably not more than four such plants in the whole country.) Existing sewage plants, however, can be upgraded to provide for biological removal of nitrogen and phosphorus. For example, a wastewater treatment facility on the York River in Virginia was upgraded in three months for $50,000. So far five sewage plants in Washington, D.C., Maryland, and North Carolina have expressed interest in using the new technology. But Dr. Randall doubts that it will be readily adopted on a wider basis. In particular, plant designers who had been hit by budget cutbacks will be so eager to start construction now that money will be released that they will probably resist any design changes. Regulatory agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency and state water control boards, however, could ensure that the improved technology is incorporated into new facilities by setting mandatory standards for nitrogen and phosphorus levels in effluent. Dr. Randall, a member of the Scientific and Technical Advisory Committee on the Chesapeake Bay, would like to see minimum levels established at less than 2 milligram per liter (mg/1) for phosphorus, and less than 10 mg/1 for nitrogen.

Women of Rappahannock - Which Of The Following Statements Are True? 1. All blue-eyed blondes tend to look good in the same colors. 2. Colors that “wash you out” when you are pale will look great when you have a suntan. 3. There should be one “pure white” blouse in every woman’s wardrobe. 4. Women over 60 look prettier wearing pastel colors rather than brights. 5. Coral blush is a basic makeup color that every woman can wear.

Members present were Margaret Dodson, Elsie Dodson, Flo Duvall, Russe Miller, Janet Eastham and Alice Pullen. New Market adds exhibit By JAMES J. GEARY Ranahannock Ncwa Contributing Writer The Civil War museum at New Market jumps back three-quarters of a century this year and next to feature a neglected 18th century story - the rapid growth and change in this Shenandoah Valley region after the Revolution. The special exhibit celebrates the bicentennial of the Constitution. And it turns up some interesting data on the period from 1780 to 1810. Some of the best iron ore in the young nation was being mined and made into pig iron at furnaces in the Valley. Quite a few forges were turning out finished products of iron and steel. Also the region rapidly became the biggest commercial wheat-growing area in Virginia, and one of the largest in the nation. That was before young Cyrus McCormack - working in his father’s Shenandoah Valley shop - invented the grain reaper that later revolutionized the farming of wheat in the vast plains to the west. We are surprised at the number of slaves in the Valley, in view of the small number of large plantations and the anti-slavery sentiment among many of the settlers and some of the churches. But the percentages were much smaller than in eastern Virginia and farther south. New Market Battlefield Park has not reduced its broad Civil War presentation. It has simply integrated the next exhibit into it. The non-profit park’s Hall of Valor still offers its three-tiered war story: the heroic and poignant part played by 247 Virginia Military Institute cadets in the Battle of New Market, the brilliant Valley Campaign of Stonewall Jackson, and the massive on-to-Richmond campaigns of eastern Virginia. But for the next two years this regular fare will share billing with 32 display panels and 100-plus artifacts of post-colonial life in the Valley. Artifacts have been loaned by Valley residents and regional museums. Panel subjects include national origins, migration, farming, transportation, houses and barns, government, artisans and industry, education, medicine, and religion. “We’re in the center of the Valley. We felt it was an opportunity, \ almost a duty, for us to present this 2 untold story at this time,” said Rob- I ert S. Myers, park director. ; He said a generous grant from \ the Virginia Foundation for the Hu- • inanities and Public Policy made the 2 exhibit possible. Also, he added, the 2 park had the benefit of research and \ wntiny by a number of authorities * on the period. ‘ For the visitor to the park, the * new presentation is offered at no in- » crease in the admission charge ($3 2 for adults, 75 cents for children), for I the museum. Admission is free to ! the 260-acre Battlefield itself, in- ; eluding the restored 19th century • farm that lay at the center of the ; fierce 1864 Battle of New Market. Nor will there be a charge for the 20th annual reenactment of that bat- < tie, which will take place at the park ‘ May 10 at 2 p.m. The event usually 2 draws in excess of 12,000 spectators. ] The park is owned by VMI, the i gift to the state military and liberal « arts college by an alumnus, George - R. Collins. It opened in 1967 as a me- : morial to the 10 cadets killed and 47 : wounded in the battle here. It was a federal army’s effort to ; cut the railroad at Staunton, 50 • miles southwest, that led to the Bat- ' tie of New Market. A scratch force < of Confederates, joined by the ca- ! dets, turned back the Union foray. ; Some 10,000 troops on the two sides ; were engaged. James J. Geary, a former Associated Tress newsman and a member of the Society of American Travel Writers, has been associated with Civil War museums for the past 25 years. He served as executive director of the Virginia Civil War Centennial Commission. YOU* MONEY ORYOUR LIFE. When you give to the Red Cross, you take on a great responsibility: saving thousands of lives.

Microwave cooking: Easy, saves time SAMJJIA R. JUCIIARDSON Extension Afcnt, Home Economics Now that spring is here, we are looking for cooking ideas that will enable us to provide nourishing meals for our families without heating up the kitchen and taking hours to prepare. Have you tried cooking meals in your microwave? Many homes in America are equipped with microwave ovens. Yet, when we question many families, the microwave is used frequently for boiling water, reheating leftovers, and thawing frozen foods. Reapes must be followed precisely. Quite often we like to change something in recipes that we try. This can present m^jor problems if the cook isn’t experienced with microwave cooking. Substituting chicken for pork causes both the power level and cooking time required to be changed; baked products may fail by reducing sugar and/or changing leavening agents. Ann Steiner and CiCi Williamson, Home Economists specializing in microwave cooking and authors of several microwaving cookbooks, have developed guidelines to help even beginning microwavers find success when increasing or decreasing the size of a recipe. To double or triple a microwave recipe, these ladies have developed this formula: “For each added amount equal to the original recipe, add 75 percent (or 3/4) to the original cooking time. For example, if a recipe can be microwaved in 8 minutes, twice the amount of food would take 8 plus 6 (3/4 of 8) or 14 minutes. To triple the recipe, add 8 + 6 + 6, or 20 minutes. “To do the reverse and cut a recipe in half, use 60 percent of the original microwave time. For example, if a recipe takes 10 minutes, half of it could be microwaved in 6 minutes. ” It must be remembered that the most efficient use of microwave energy is using recipes that serve from four to eight. Cooking times will vary from microwave to microwave because of many factors, some of Dwyers have son Mr. and Mrs. James Lee Dwyer of Washington are proud to announce the birth of their son, Jamie Lee, born on Thursday, April 16 at Fauquier Hospital in Warrenton. Jamie weighed 8 pounds and 9 1/2 ounces and was 211/2 inches long. Delighted grandparents are Bill and Faye Pullen and Mrs. Lorene Dwyer, all of Washington.and the late Thomas J. Dwyer. Great grandparents are Mr. Charlie Pullen of Gid Brown Hollow, Mrs. Janie Pullen of Washington, Mrs. Ida Cornell of Sperryville and Mrs. Helen Campbell of Luray.

Sport Fodderstack (Continued from Page 1) also a year older, so I guess I’m entitled.” Pre-race predictions by the organizers for a possible record field were apparently washed out along with the week-long heavy rains. Having been named by Running Times magazine as one of the best 75 road races in the country, the race committee felt that this year might surpass 1984’s record entries of 369. Committee member Sandra Brown said Friday that the organizers had received a lot of calls from Washington, D. G., area runners asking about the race. A race planned for Saturday on Haines Point was cancelled due to high water in the Potomac River, which runs along the course. The lingering clouds and inters mittent showers Saturday morning probably deterred a few prospective entrants, however, and the field of 244 this year fell well short of 1984’s record. Mr. Wingfield, as well as several other competitors, expressed their appreciation to the organizers and volunteers who worked during the weeks and months before the event, as well as the day of the race. “The people who do the organizing are just tremendous!” Mr. Wingfield said. The volunteers included, as always, the members of the board of directors of the Rappahannock Recreation Authority, members of the Cub and Boy Scouts, and numerous Fodderstack Road residents who ——— Rappahannock News photo/Lou Hatter RAPPAHANNOCK’S TOP SIX: Frank Reynolds, seven-time Eva L.

Sheep dog trial set May 9, 10 The fourth annual Blue Ridge Open Sheep Dog Trial will be held on Saturday and Sunday, May 9 and 10, at Sunnybrook Farm, near White Post. Last year over eighty dogs from across the country competed at the trial and there were over three thousand spectators during the two days. Two handlers flew in from California, as did three spectators, and handlers came from Indiana, Ohio, Georgia, North Carolina, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Alabama, Mississippi and Maryland as well as many from Virginia. Because of the number of dogs last year the trial this year will be limited to Open and Open Ranch classes only. . ALPO Petfoods is again sponsoring the trial with considerable additional prize money and dog food to give away to handlers and specta tore. The trial will start at 8 a.m. both days, possibly at 7 a.m. depending on the number of dogs entered, and continue until all dogs have run, usually well after 6 p.m. The Boyce Volunteer Fire Company will provide food on the grounds as well as a dinner for the handlers and their families on Saturday night at Sunnybrook. The sheep that will be used are Black Belly Barbados. They have hair and not wool so are able to run in hotter weather than ordinary wool sheep. Spectators . are welcome but should bring their own chairs. There will be direction signs to Sunnybrook from both Route 50 and Route 340.

Rappahannock Journal • Farm • Business • Garden • Rural life Child Abuse Prevention Month ByLYNDACOHEN Rappahannock Neva Contributing Writer President Reagan has proclaimed April to be National Child Abuse Prevention Month. Throughout the nation, and in Virginia, numerous activities on the subject of child abuse and neglect are scheduled to take place. The theme for this year’s activities is “Strengthening Families Through Awareness.” The National “Safe at Home Day,” will be an event patterned after the American Heart Association’s “Great American Smokeout” campaign, and April 25 has been dedicated to “peace within the family.” Many citizens in the Commonwealth are aware of the problem of child abuse and neglect, but still the majority are unaware of how they can personally prevent this growing problem. One group which is working toward combatting the problem of family violence is the STOP Violence Coalition. Its main objective is to raise awareness and offer alterna tives, through community and educational programs. The Coalition offers alternatives in dealing with anger, acquaints both victims and abusers with resources available in instance of violence, and helps abusers modify violent behavior through stress reduction techniques. The Coalition has declared the last Saturday in April to be National No Hitter Day, with the accompanying slogan, “Be a Hugger, not a Slugger!” For more information on activities during Child Abuse Prevention Month, contact the Virginia Coalition for Child Abuse Prevention, Department of Social Services, Richmond, (804)489-3279. Local agencies which can provide information or referrals about child abuse include the Rappahannock County Department of Social Services (675-3326) and Family Guidance Services of Rappahannock (6753329), a service of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Community Services Center.

If you have a greenhouse or green thumb, you can raise potted plants, transplants, herbs, or cut flowers for the market. If you raise bees or chickens, consider selling your honey or eggs there. According to the Extension Service, these retail markets are a good way to sell products without the hidden expense of a middle man. Prince William County will be host to two retail farmers markets this summer. The Manassas Farmers Market will be located in historic Old Town Manassas on Thursdays; the Prince William Farmers Market will be held in Dale City on Sundays. The Prince William Extension Service is currently distributing applica tions to anyone interested in selling produce, etc. at the markets. The Prince William Markets have been predicted by the Virginia Department of Agriculture to be among the most frequented in the state. Fresh quality sweet corn, melons, cucumbers, beans, broccoli, tomatoes, apples, strawberries, raspberries, peaches and other produce are best sellers. Other suggested products to sell include: pumpkins, peanuts, eggs, cider, maple syrup, honey, herbs, shiitake mushrooms, cut flowers, transplants, and potted plants. No vendor is too small. Because of health regulations, products which require refrigeration (seafood, meats, milk, homemade canned goods, etc.) CANNOT be sold. The Farmers Market bylaws require that crops MUST be grown (and not resold) by the participants, their relatives or employees. Prince William County is conviently located near the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan area. Many of its residents are dual income families which work in the city. The Manassas Market is convenient to Rt. 28 and 1-66, in the heart of historic Manassas (a tourist stop near Manassas Battlefield). The Woodbridge Market is convenient to 1-95, located in the heart of a booming residential community; 33,500 cars pass by this site daily. Call now to participate in this alternative marketing opportunity. Prince William Cooperative Extension Service is located at 8805 Sudley Rd., Suite 200, Manassas, VA 22110; (703) 335-6285.

In particular, she said, desert colors, mountains, caves, camel caravans, ruins, notations and writing came into her work. Ancient shapes and totemic and fossil forms were not new to the artist; she’d been building a body of work around them for more than seven years. But Val Dubasky, RAAC’s artist-in-residence for the month of April, found that her journey along the old silk road transformed her paintings, just as everything that the artist sees ultimately does. For this reason, said the artist, who lives and works in New York City, travel is a necessary part of her work and a part that she must make time for: “Although I love New York City, I find myself drawn to great expanses,” Dubasky explained. “There are times that I just need to get away, and, of course, nature has tremendous importance to any artist.” Like the primitive artist, Dubasky draws her shapes from nature. And her stay in Rappahannock, the artist explained, is another opportunity to study another landscape: “It’s been over a quarter of a century since I’ve been in the Blue Ridge Mountains,” said the artist, who traveled here as a child living in Washington, D.C. Dubasky’s trip was well-documented with slides, both of the spectacular landscape and the cave paintings. This Saturday and Sunday, Dubasky and other area artists and friends will be constructing a mural based on some Native American thoughts on directions, seasons, and times of day and their intuitive symbolism. She hopes that anyone interested - not only artists.- wiU bring something to add to this work -masks, parts of masks, bits of collage or drawing, small objects found in nature. “There will be room for everything,” she said, adding that materials will also be at the mural construction site. Dubasky has been working with senior citizens, elementary and high school students, visiting local artists at their studios and will participate in a workshop on art marketing during her stay here. For more information on any of the artist-in-residence programs, call the RAAC office at 675-3193. The RAAC artist in residence is sponsored by the Artist’s Forum series and the Virginia Commission of the Arts. Babysitting during concert The Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community will offer babysitting services at the Child Care and Learning Center during the Claudia Schmidt concert on May 2. RAAC’s director Ann Stevens noted that often members say they are unable to attend programs because they can’t make satisfactory arrangements for child care. “So we thought we’d give this a try,” she added. “If it works out well, we’ll continue the service.” Those wanting to reserve a slot at the Learning Center should call the RAAC offices at 675-3193. There will be a nominal charge for the child care, the exact amount dependent upon the number of children participating and the number of sitters required. □ At last!

School Supervisors signal cuts in budget ay UArHNE HUTCHINSON Rwahcnnock Newt Staff Writer Judging from the signals given by Rappahannock’s Board of Supervisors in its first round of budget work, the School Board and every other department of local government can expect their revenue requests for 1987-88 to be trimmed by the supervisors. “If you had to cut this budget, where would you cut?” Supervisor Charles Estes asked the School Board members gathered around the courtroom table during a joint work session April 13. “At the bottom line,” answered Nancy Reeve, with no hesitation. “Can’t do the bottom line,” Mr. Estes replied, referring to the board’s practice over the past several years of trimming school spending by categories to exercise greater control over how reductions are absorbed. “It’s a nasty jump,” the Piedmont District supervisor said, of the proposed $$3,621,026 school budget, which calls for an increase of $340,248 in local funding. “I know you adopted this budget in good faith. We’re not questioning your good faith, but where would you suggest we cut? Give us something to think about between now and April 22 (when the public hearing on the school budget is scheduled).” “I’d like to see it cut - if it’s cut — on the bottom line, and let us go back through the budget again,” repeated Chairman Beverly Massie. She recalled that the School Board met every Tuesday in March to work on the proposed 1987-88 budget, painstakingly reviewing each line item and trimming expenditures where possible. Making adjustments to any reductions would take that long again, she said, but if cuts are made to the bottom line, “it just doesn’t tie our hands quite as tight.” One local firm that employs a significant number of Piedmont District residents cut employee salaries by three percent recently, Mr. Estes noted. Those workers and others whose pay increases have amounted to just seven percent in the last two years combined have called to register their concern over a spiraling local tax rate, he said. “They look at this 10 percent (pay increase for teachers) every year - I have a hard time with it. My people have a hard time with it.” At the same time, Mr. Estes conceded, the gap between the pay for Rappahannock teachers and the salary of teachers elsewhere in the state is widening. “And I know that if they don’t get that 10 percent, we’ll really be in big trouble . .. It’s an unpopular situation. It’s an unpopular year.” School Superintendent Robert Estabrook called it “disheartening” for the supervisors to accord Rappahannock teachers 34 percent pay raises over the last three years - “I doubt if more than three or four school divisions in the state have done any better” - when, over that same three-year period, “rank-wise, we have slipped.” (Last year, Rappahannock ranked 127th among Virginia’s 136 school divisions on the basis of starting salary; this year, the county was 130th.) He applauded the state’s goal of improving teacher pay and attracting the best of the college graduates to the teaching ranks, but he castigated the state’s method of providing financial incentives to localities for 10 percent salary hikes. “That’s a very ill conceived notion ... If all Virginia school divisions give 10 percent, what’s the effect? The rich get richer and the poor get poorer . . . You’re widening the gulf (because) obviously, 10 percent applied to a larger figure yields a greater amount.” If teachers aren’t awarded at least a 10 percent raise again this year, the county will lose $49,000 in “incentive” aid from the state, Mrs. Massie told the supervisors. But that revenue will be lost next year, Supervisor Newbill Miller pointed out. And over a two-year period, the decline in state support from the incentive program alone will total $100,000, leaving the county with that amount to make up from local tax dollars for the 1988-89 budget, added Mr. Estes. According to the superintendent, it is just that dwindling state and federal support that has pushed the local share of the proposed budget up by 23 percent this year. Federal aid for vocational education will plummet dramatically while support for remedial and special education programs continues its downward slide, Mr. Estabrook noted. According to projections, Rappahannock’s enrollment will decline by about three percent again next year, bringing a concurrent decline in “enrollment driven” state aid, the superintendent said. The decrease in federal and state revenue will total $173,000, he reported. If that amount didn’t have to be made up with local money, if state and federal aid in 1987-88 came in at this year’s level, the local share of the proposed school budget would be up by just $14,158, according to the superintendent. The message that Richmond is sending to the people of Virginia isn’t altogether accurate, Mr. Estabrook continued. While the General Assembly has increased the amount of basic aid that localities receive per pupil, other categories of state aid have disappeared, he said. “Yes, state revenue is up overall but not by as much as the state would have the public believe.” Mrs. Massie was critical of another message - the message that goes out to the people of Rappahannock. Out of necessity, school budgets are built on conservative revenue estimates, she explained. Then when state revenue comes in higher than anticipated, that final June payment - the one that puts receipts over what was budgeted - goes into the county’s general fund. Since it was not included in the budget approved by the Board of Supervisors almost 12 months earlier, it cannot be spent by the School Board, she noted. “Money earmarked for education COUNTY TAGS NOW ON SALE County taxes must be paid and Registration Cards must be stamped by the Commissioner of Revenue. County tags must be displayed by May 1,1987. In addition to taxes your 1986 assessment must be declared before buying county tags.

Better Hearing Through Professional Care should be spent for education,” not carried over to meet general revenue needs, she maintained. At the very least, Mrs. Massie said, the Board of Supervisors should keep that end-of-fiscal-year revenue separate and apply that to the following year’s local share of the school budget BEFORE figuring how many “new” tax dollars will be required. That would give a fairer, more accurate picture of the school budget’s impact on the tax rate, according to the School Board chairman. There were indications at Monday’s work session of where besides salaries that the board may look to cuts the proposed budget. Supervisor Nelson Lane posed the possibility of a teaching staff reduction in light of the decline in enrollment, and Supervisor Estes asked for an explanation of the duties attendant to the central office’s third administrative position, that of special services supervisor, a post established four years ago. And there was a clue as to where they won’t cut. Mr. McCarthy asked assistant superintendent Tom Campbell if he’d obtained additional information on refurbishing older school buses, an option the School Board was investigating as an alternative to buying two new buses next year. “Personally, I don’t think refurbishing buses is economical,” Mr. Campbell replied to Supervisor Estes’ request for his opinion. “I also wonder what it would do to our insurance rates,” Mrs. Massie added. “There’s no way you can recondition an old bus and have it be comparable to a new bus,” Supervisor Estes agreed. At the close of a wide ranging discussion of the operational budget and the high school expansion project, Mr. Estes asked again for suggestions on where proposed school expenditures could be trimmed. “I haven’t heard any recommendation yet.” “How much are you going to cut?” countered the superintendent. “We don’t want to give you the whole house when you only need the frontdoor.” Then it was the supervisors’ turn to hesitate, as Mr. Estes pointed out that all revenue needs have not yet been compiled. But the increase in the local share of the proposed school budget will take an additional 16 cents on the real estate tax rate, he noted. “I don’t mean to slight education, but cents are what we’re really going to have to look at,” the Piedmont District supervisor concluded.

SPTA supports late-start idea By CINDY ANDREONI Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer The SPTA opened its April meeting with a presentation by Waldron O’Conner on the literacy program in Rappahannock County. He noted that this is a free and private tutoring service available to anyone who wishes either to learn to read or to improve their reading skills. Members received several updates, including confirmation of a letter from the SPTA to the school board supporting the teachers’ request for a late-start snow day policy. The April 3 family movie night, featuring the film Gus, was a success despite adverse weather predictions for that evening. An RCES playground workday was held April 11th; however, anyone who missed that date but is still interested in helping to finish this project should call Cindy Andreoni (987-8750). A sock hop is being planned for May 15, from 7 to 9 p.m. in the RCES gym. Anyone who knows of a band willing to play at this event should call Edie Clark (675-3188). Mrs. Clark will also be acting as the SPTA coordinator with RAAC in bringing various childrens’ theatre groups to the elementary school. The SPTA has already approved funds for the first event, scheduled for sometime in Mav.

Cindy Andreoni, Judy Tole and Edie Clark were re-elected to the positions of president, vicepresident and treasurer. Deborah Flinchum will be secretary, replacing April Heddleston who declined to run again after putting in two years of service in this capacity. The RCES fun fair plans were also discussed. This first attempt at a large scale fun fair at the school is being planned for Saturday, May 2 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. It will include cake-walks, raffles, a fortune-teller, pizza, hot dogs and other snacks as well as numerous games for all ages. Anyone who can help either with managing a booth or baking goodies please call Linda Mallory at 937-5039 or Mary Jane Swift at 636-6363.

Migrant permit (Continued from Page 1) aider if Rappahannock is going to be primarily a retirement community and arts and crafts center or whether the county will have other industry and business. “I define farming as a business; I support this 100 percent." Attorney Douglas Baumgardner, who represents the Sharps, cited the goals of Rappahannock’s comprehensive plan: “to encourage the maintenance of the agricultural sector . . . encourage the renewal of horticultural activity . . . maintain an agricultural employment base (and) encourage a wide variety of housing types.” Mr. Sharp’s application to expand the migrant camp is consistent with those comprehensive plan goals, he said. In addition, a migrant camp is compatible with the surrounding land uses in Hairis Hollow, traditionally an apple orchard area which once had as many as four operating migrant camps, Mr. Baumgardner said. He acknowledged that agricultural uses can pose a conflict with 25acre subdivisions and “people coming in for primarily residential purposes,” but added that “agriculture was here first before the 25acre subdivisions.” “Apiculture needs help,” said Phil Irwin, lodging strong objections to interference with farming operations already caught in the price/cost squeeze. “For every orchard, every pasture, this county is saving money” by avoiding the demand for expensive services that development to intensive residential uses will bring, said Mr. Irwin. “We must not stand in the way of agricultural production,” he maintained, asking that the Sharps’ application be approved. “But I do hope that somewhere along the way, you will find a way to respect the neighbors,” Mr. Irwin concluded. The orchardist interjected that, at the height of the harvest season, he asked the neighboring landowners if they had any complaints and Meredith Gorfein answered, “Frankly, we don’t even know it’s there.” “Any problems they have, we’ll address,” Mr. Sharp continued. “We want to make sure our labor housing has no impact on them.” Problem not with seasonal housing “I find myself standing against the entire forces of agriculture,” said Meredith Gorfein. Agriculture “is not what this application is about. That’s not what our objection is about,” she contended. Mrs. Gorfein acknowledged she’d told Mr. Sharp that she and her husband had no problem with the camp during the harvest season. “That’s the crux. We have no problem with agriculture, with migrant workers or with housing for migrant workers. But there’s a statewide understanding of what a migrant labor camp is,” she said, explaining that their opposition centered on yearround use. Mrs. Gorfein said that in 1979, when George Sharp built what she called “a migrant camp for two or three workers during the harvest season,” her husband gave an electric right-of-way for the structure. That housing has since been used year-round, and, Mrs. Gorfein charged, was built without the required special use permit. “We didn’t challenge that then, but we are about to,” she warned. In 1984, when Alex Sharp sought a special use permit for “a new migrant camp,” her husband objected, but only on the basis of the proposed location, Mrs. Gorfein said, questioning why, with a 225-acre farm, Mr. Sharp chose to build 450 to 475 feet from their property line. She insisted, however, that she and her husband had “no problem” with the new migrant housing and what she termed the old migrant camp. “It’s the notion of going beyond the harvest season. For the past year, Henry and I have done very little else but have nightmares over this,” Mrs. Gorfein said. “We are downplayed as having lesser rights because ... we’re only residential.” “Henry and I plan to put a vineyard in .. . We understand the need for low cost migrant help,” Mrs. Gorfein continued. “Alex, as far as I’m concerned, can have as much as he needs. But it comes down to harvest time and beyond,” she said, reporting that her research found that the State Department of Agriculture knows of no year-round migrant camps in Virginia. How do orchardists in other localities with a far larger number of acres in fruit trees get winter pruning done, she asked, rhetorically. “Pruning crews come through there just like they do in Rappahannock,” Mrs. Gorfein said. The transient crews may arrive late and they may be shorthanded, “but they get it done, just like Rappahannock has gotten it done until now.” She contended that tenant housing is for year-round farm help while migrant camps are for seasonal laborers. “When you start trying to turn a migrant labor camp into tenant housing, that’s when it affects everybody.” Migrants on the job year-round will demand county services, Mrs. Gorfein maintained. “A migrant worker, if he stays, he belongs to us and his family belongs to us, and we’re responsible,” she told the planning commissioners. “Our house and we were there before the migrant labor camps. We have no objection to orchards, seasonal migrant labor camps, cows, pigs, fresh air, but we object to a year-round facility that is unique in Virginia.” “What are the ramifications of a year-round camp as opposed to a seasonal one?” asked Commissioner Fannon. “My only investment is my property. I’m not a wealthy man,” Henry Gorfein answered. He said that a “year-round barracks-like facility” 850 feet away will decrease his property value. “Property values and safety - or our perception of safety” will be affected by the expanded migrant camp, Mrs. Gorfein added, asking what’s to keep these migrants from taking jobs away from local workers at the packing house should they stay past harvest season. Commissioner Fannon asked if the Gorfeins’ sole objection centered on year-round use and not the increased number of laborers. “I have difficulty with the notion that you should reward someone who violated their permit . . . and systematically circumvented the entire system of zoning, but no, we have no objections (to allowing a greater number of workers to use the housing facility),” Mrs. Gorfein replied. Zoning administrator John McCarthy recalled that the new zoning ordinance adopted last December had initially qualified labor camps as seasonal. The Board of Supervisors, however, dropped that restriction with the clear intent of permitting the POTENTIAL for year-round migrant housing to be regulated through conditions attached to the required special exception permit, he pointed out. “For me, it seems almost inhumane - 16 guys, for a whole year with no family life,” commmented Commissioner Werner Krebser, suggesting that migrant workers use tenant housing and be allowed to bring their families. “As it is now, they stay as long as there’s work and then they go back to their families,” Mr. Sharp said. He explained that the same men don’t stay for 12 months, from pruning season through harvest season. "They’re in rotation constantly.” As to Mrs. Gorfein’s contention that Virginia has no year-round migrant camps, he said the state only knows of those orchardists who hire workers here under a certain type of visa. “Ask them how many labor camps are in Rappahannock County and they would have said none. Now they’ll say one,” Mr. Sharp added. Reading from the Virginia Code’s definition of migrant workers and camps, Mr. Baumgardner pointed out that it doesn’t restrict the facility’s use to part of the year. And neither does the Rappahannock zoning ordinance, he noted. “There’s nothing that says migrant workers can’t live in tenant housing, in existing housing,” Mrs. Gorfein countered, citing another provision of the Rappahannock zoning ordinance that stipulates a proposed use shall not adversely affect a neighboring property or impair that neighboring property’s value. “This is a special exception that’s being asked for, not a rubber stamp . . . not a right,” she argued, describing the migrant camp as “a facility determined to grow . . . This is not going to stop here,” Mrs. Gorfein maintained. Lee Bird (Continued from Page 1) week before each monthly meeting, “so people will know what’s coming up." Under that format, the board would not consider any business not on the published agenda, except in an emergency situation. In addition, Mr. Bird said that he would discuss with his constituents, before each meeting, the issues which the board planned to address. This, he maintained, is an important part of building a truly participatory democracy. “I would meet with my constituents frequently, and in a fashion which would permit their wishes to be considered in the decisions which have to be made." During the meetings, he said, he would favor more explanation being given of what exactly is happening, “so casual meeting-goers can understand. All of this is aimed at increasing participation by the citizens of the county.” Fairness is another issue which Mr. Bird said he strongly advocates. “I would strive to represent ALL the people —even those whose voices are not often heard.” If difficulties arise, Mr. Bird continued, “I would try to discuss and resolve them in a reasonable way. Government is a method where difficulties can be resolved and essential goals reached by compromise... between conflicting alternatives.” He gave as an example the conflicting ends of preserving the county’s open space — while attempting to allow reasonable growth. Addressing the increasing pressures for development in the county, Mr. Bird maintained that “we can’t oppose change. But we should make timely and adequate provision for growth.” By directing the growth around the county’s towns and villages, the pressures for growth can be channeled constructively, he said. Change and growth “should be channeled and directed through land use, the county’s Comprehensive Plan, and its zoning and subdivision policy. They are tools toward the end of keeping the open space we have to maintain the unspoiled rural quality of the county. I would hope that if there is growth — individually or of communities —that it be of the type which is most suited to a rural community. It should not scar the land or spoil the things which we cherish here.” “Through reasonable and contained growth,” he pointed out, “we could make it possible for increasing numbers of young people to settle or stay here in the county.” Turning to the county’s budget, Mr. Bird said that several projects which were set in motion this year will occasion a rise in taxes. There are needed public improvements, he said, and the schools have not made their last demand. Tax revenue is required to provide for these needs, and the continuing decrease in state and federal subsidies will mean that the county will have to come up with more money each year. “It’s a hard case,” he admitted. The county’s land use tax policy eases the pressure on farmers Who stay on the land, “yet open land doesn’t send children to school. In terms of paying for services received .. . landowners subsidize the rest of the community.” “There are no sure answers,” Mr. Bird said, “because neither society in general nor we in Rappahannock have arrived at a consensus on issues, or how to plan to meet the issues. All I can suggest is that the supervisors will have to work at problems as they come up — to try to anticipate and meet them in a Call 675-3338 to subscribe timely fashion as best they can.” “I’m not an idealogue,” Mr. Bird added. “I’ve no particular ends to seek” in running for the Hampton District post. “The notion of government service is something I believe Building? • Paint > • Lumber y • Millwork ^ • Hardware c Complete One-Step BUILDING SUPPLY WARRENTON BUILDING MATERIAL CO., INC. on the By-pass, Warrenton 347-1400 Approximately ISO acraa in Huntty area.

It is the status of the individual workers, not the length of time the facility is used, that is critical to the definition of a migrant camp, he told the commissioners. Describing the Health Department’s oversight role as “exhaustive,” he noted that a migrant facility serving more than 10 workers must be inspected bi-weekly by the local sanitarian. Ruling the public hearing closed, Chairman A. Y. Stokes turned to his fellow commissioners for comments. “Alex could well be the last big time operator,” said John Clark, noting that 50 years ago, orchards covered a majority of the county and the orchard industry employed half its people. But the orchard operators are old and “most Rappahannock County orchards are over the hill.” New trees planted now will take 10 to 15 years before giving a return on the investment, he said. With talk today of disqualifying orchards from the use value assessment program and the triple threat of damage by deer, drought and disease, no one is replanting, he said. Commissioner Clark commended Mr. Sharp for going into the fruit production business and providing local people with jobs, guessing that the young orchardist may be the county’s second or third biggest employer. But as the years take their toll on the orchard owners and the trees they rent to Mr. Sharp, “will there even be a need for a labor camp down the road?” the Hampton District representative asked. He called a year-round camp “a dangerous new precedent” and predicted that those migrants will take jobs from local people. “You bring a sizeable population of people here and do that over a period of years, soon there will be a sizeable population that requires full services (without being) good county taxpayers,” he maintained. He defined “good county taxpayers” as those who own real estate and pay real estate taxes here. By recommending issuance of the special exception permit, “I would be recommending a sizeable tax increase for everyone in this county” to pay for those services to migrants, Commissioner Clark concluded. “This has to do with preserving agriculture here in Rappahannock County,” countered Mr. Miller, the supervisor from Hampton District who is the board’s liaison on the planning commission. Calling local help “a myth,” he contended that the lack of dependable labor for year-round mainte Stillness of person and steadiness of features are signal marks of good breeding. — O.W.

Most of the county’s young people who are going into agriculture are going into fruit production, Mr. Miller said, adding that fruit production is Rappahannock’s only viable agricultural industry at present. Reminding the commissioners that it was the supervisors’ intent to allow adult farm labor camps to operate year round, he noted that conditions could be applied to regulate the use. “Well, now you’re talking compromise,” interjected Commissioner Clark. “I’ll go along with it if you’ll put the proper restrictions on it, of course.” Mr. Miller suggested just the conditions proposed by the zoning administrator, which would allow the facility to be used 12 months of the year. Commissioners Fannon and Clark challenged the year-round status. “That would be difficult to police,” said the Jackson District representative, contending that the same laborers here for months would become de facto residents. “If they’re here year round, they’re certainly going to send for their families. In bad weather, there’d be no work . . . It’s a fact of life that migrant workers have a lot of kids,” Commissioner Fannon said, adding that their presence would put a burden on schools and welfare services. Dr. Krebser suggested that the camp be closed for two months, possibly in January and February. “That would be a reasonable compromise.” If the camp must close, June and part of July would be better from an orchard management standpoint, said Mr. Sharp. “We get so much work done in the winter months.” Commissioner Clark still balked. “It’s a sad situation but the orchard business is on the decline.” He supported the comprehensive plan’s goals for encouraging agriculture, “but when it’s encouraged at the expense of everyone else, that’s not right.” Using tenant housing for migrant workers will accomplish just the opposite of what Commissioners Clark and Fannon are aiming for, Mr. Miller argued. A migrant camp restricted to adult workers discourages transients from becoming year round residents; providing tenant housing where they can bring their families would encourage them to stay, he said. “One hundred thousand new trees are being planted RIGHT NOW in Flint Hill,” Mr. Sharp countered to the prediction that the apple industry is dying in Rappahannock. Peter Skowronski, the Sharps’ mechanic who repairs orchard equipment and tools, said that January, February and March are his busiest months because the pruning crews are working constantly. As to bad weather interfering, he told the commissioners, “I’ve walked through the Snead orchard in a foot of snow to bring them saws.” Pruning has to be done in the winter when the branches cut down and piled around the trees won’t block the passage of the sprayers through the orchards, added Roseanne Sharp. “What about my basic needs?” demanded Mr. Gorfein, asking for a guarantee that Mr. Sharp won’t cut a new access road to the labor camp. “Eleven months don’t help me. Ten months don’t help me,” he said, of the proposed compromise. "The pruners are housed somewhere else now. Why can’t that continue?” asked Meredith Gorfein. “Alex is a business man. This is how he makes his living. He has housing. There’s housing all over this county. If it costs him to rent it, so be it. No one here has a free ride. That’s what he’s asking for!” Commissioner Fannon repeated • his concern that migrants provided a year-round camp would strain the county’s welfare system and schools. “They’re not permanent residents. They’re not dying to live here year-round. They go home to their families,” said Roseanne Sharp. “We want to do right” by the Gorfeins, added Alex Sharp. “But we want to stay in business. I know I’ll probably go bankrupt some day. This is farming! But I want to give it my best shot... I don’t want this millstone around our necks, choking us to death,” he said of the limits of the migrant camp use. As conversations and exchanges continued among the different factions in the audience, Supervisor Miller warned the commissioners that without a dependable labor supply, the Sharps will be forced out of the apple business. “Nine to ten months with a bigger number during pruning season?” Chairman Stokes asked the orchardist. “A month (closure) is not going to pass here,” added Commissioner Fannon. “What would pass?” Mr. Sharp asked. “Two months,” the Jackson District representative replied. “Two months and full occupancy and I can get the job done,” Mr. Sharp countered. With the conditions suggested by the zoning administrator plus 10month occupancy set at 16 from Aug.l through Nov. 15 and no more than 10 in the off season, the application won a majority recommendation from the pluming commissioners. Mr. Clark remained opposed and A. Y. Stokes abstained. “Because I use N migrant workers,” the chairman explained. Mr. Gorfein’s request for restrictions on a road to the migrant camp was ignored. The application now goes to the Board of Supervisors for a public hearing. The commissioners directed Mr. Sharp to bring to that hearing a suggestion on which two months he will dose the camp.
