PTA forum on education The Rappahannock County Elementary School PTA is sponsoring a forum for candidates for the county’s Board of Supervisors at the elementary school on Tuesday, Oct. 6, beginning about 8 p.m. A short PTA business meeting will begin at 7:30. Doug Baumgardner has agreed to serve as moderator and will lead the forum, allowing each candidate to respond to a set of questions developed by PTA and school district representatives before the forum. The questions will cover school-related matters, those of strictly local concern as well as problems which affect not only Rappahannock but districts throughout the state and nation as -well. School issues have been in the minds of the county’s .residents over the past several years, with salaries and ' the RCHS capital -expansion project *the topics of hot de>bate both in the /’community and •Iamong the mem;bers of the Board of Supervisors. * Salary increases ^ in question > For the past > three years, the “'State of Virginia •'has mandated a 10 r*t'/u|',i* r» r* t'- JP * ** ? •*’ * 1H - / * <* ■ DOUG BAUMGARDNER ere, with the promise of loss of state aid as punishment to any school district which failed to provide at least that minimum increase. This carrot and stick approach has resulted in teachers’ and administrators’ salaries in the county coming more into line with those in surrounding and more urban counties. However, fiscal year 1987-88 is the last year during which that state mandate holds. There is widespread interest not only in Rappahannock, but throughout the state, in whether local governments will continue to advance salaries at a comparable rate. The feeling in the educational community is that salaries, although better than they were several years ago, are still lagging behind private industry. Career educators worry that, in years to come, it will be more and more difficult to attract motivated, talented graduates into the education field when private industry is offering significantly better compensation. Mandated programs continue . The state and federal governments have also saddled 1 school districts with an increasing number of mandated (See FORUM, p. 18) > Henry will run as Jackson District wri By LOU HATTER Kawahamoek Newt StaffWriter The contest for supervisor in Jackson District became a four-horse race this weekend, as incumbent A1 Henry announced that he will wage a last-minute, write-in election campaign. Mr. Henry dropped a bombshell when he announced last spring that he would not run for the seat, to which he was appointed after the death of J. Richard Latham in December 1986. He said at the time that he was frustrated with the public’s criticism of the county’s elected officials, and cited the time demands of the job as another reason for his decision. Now, Mr. Henry said in an interview Monday, the urgings of numerous constituents have persuaded him to change his mind. “A lot of people have called me at home - people who like the way I have represented them. They have told me that they’re dismayed that I’m not running and urged me to change my mind. “After a lot of thought, I agreed to run.” He added that he is “disappointed” with the Jackson District campaign so far. “The other candidates seem not to be active, not letting people know. The people in Jackson District deserve to know where we stand. I think my record stands on its own. I’ve voted for my constituents.” He ticked off a number of items: • For the school bond issue, “because my constituents have said they want better schools.” • For continuance of land use taxation “to conserve the county’s agricultural base.” • Against the proposal to put an ABC store in Flint Hill. ; • Against an increased doe kill in Jackson District, “because voters called me and told me we don’t need it in our district." • Against the landfill proposed on the Stover property. • For increased user fees for the Health Department and the Building and Zoning office, “because the people who use the services should pay a larger percentage instead of being subsidized by the residents who don’t use those services. ” Since the state has approved the county’s landfill site application for the Stover tract, at least through the preliminary phases, does Mr. Henry see that as a disadvantage to him as the incumbent representative from Jackson District, where the proposal has met with stiff resistance for residents? “I think that issue has been AL HENRY defused,” he said. “The supervisors have gone about it in a slow and proper way. They got proper, detailed engineering done, they submitted all the data to the state for re view, and so far the result has been favorable. “The important thing that people need to realize is that the county has purchased a 100-acre tract. At most, 26 acres will be used over a period of years for the landfill. That leaves 75 acres as a buffer around the perimeter. I think there will be minimum impact.” “And,” he added, “I want to assure the county’s residents that it will be well run. We will have to have strict enforcement of the regulations against dumping (at the site after hours). If we have problems with that, law enforcement will address it. And we will request the cooperation of residents in prosecuting violators.” Mr. Henry also suggested that... he would like to see the Concerned Citizens of Jackson District Committee “add their input in a positive fashion, and assist the board and the county in the development and operation of the site.” He suggested that a citizens’ advisory committee copld continue to function after the site is open, visiting at regular intervals, fielding complaints from residents, and advising the board of any problems. “It would provide (See HENRY, p.,18) Apple festival, Blue Ridge artists in Sperryville Just as sure as the apples are falling along with the temperatures, and the Blue Ridge Mountains are outlined against a cloudless blue October sky, Sperryville has a full house lined up for this weekend. The little village will play host to two big autumn events, the Sperryville Apple Harvest Celebration and the Artists of the Blue Ridge exhibition. Both are in their third year, and both have gained wide reputations for being an outstanding way to spend a lazy fall weekend. And, said the organizers, it appears that this year’s festival will continue the tradition. Nearly every store, both in town and on the highways outside, is planning to mark the weekend with craft demonstrations, open houses or special sales. show, whichwafe** The Artists of the Blue Ric li&reaBoiitWflMiftai'tfofiftlftfai gion, "has drawn some of the best talent from the two previous shows back for a return exhibition,” according to Anne Stephens. Mrs. Stephens is the executive director of the Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community, which sponsors the show together with the Faith Mountain Company. Cheri Woodard, proprietor of Faith Mountain, added that the media represented in the show ranges from painting, photography, printing and etching, watercolors on handmade paper, pottery, handknit clothing and weaving, jewelry and traditional crafts such as quilting and dollmaking. Among the Rappahannock artists exhibiting are Jeanne Drevas, Tom Spande, Geneva Welch and the members of the Middle Street Gallery Artists’. Cooperative. In addition to the art, there will be continuous live entertainment at Faith Mountain, including the Fearless Airborne Conjury, well-known for wowing the crowds with juggling and comedy, the New Liberty bluegrass band, which Mrs. Stephens said "stopped the show last year,” Linda Orfilla, accompanied by Charlie Tompkins, oriental dancer Anthea, and the Free Spirit gospel group. Also at Faith Mountain, RAAC will have their popular beer garden set up, and Oasis Vineyards will have Virginia wines for sale. The Rappahannock Lions will also kick off the fall sales of their famous homemade apple butter at the show. And RAAC will also be having a bake sale, “compliments of the wonderful cooks of RAAC,” Mrs. Stephens said. But the fun will spread throughout town. Out on Rappahannock News file photo MANY CRAFT DEMONSTRATIONS, like Carson Johnson’s grapevine wreath display, will be part of the Apple Harvest Celebration. 'Rt. 211, the stores are all geared up, including Country Manor’s tent sale, Country Elegance’s Sunday country music and barbecued chicken, and an open house with free refreshments at Chipmunk Hollow and a number of other stores. There will be special fall sales, plenty of antiques on display and local crafts demonstrations at a number of stores on Rt. 211. Everyone has planned something special for the weekend, according to the organizers. For a real taste of Rappahannock, stop by Skyline Cold Storage, where tours of the apple-packing plant will be offered along with free cider. And, next door at the Sperryville Antique Market, the Blue Ridge doggers will perform on Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m. The Antique Market will also sponsor a craft show. The Bed and Breakfast Guild of Rappahannock County will have a "sample bedroom” set up on the porch of the Antique Market, with information about the bed and breakfast establishments in the county. They will also have information about two events planned for the fall: a progressive dinner and an “open house,” both scheduled for later thie year. the apples become cider, they’ve go? toiSe pressed, and Elmer Atkins, who lives on Rt. 651, off Rt. 211 west, will demonstrate his cider-pressing operation. A number of civic groups will have booths set up for the weekend, including an Old-Fashioned Apple Toss to benefit the Rappahannock County Elementary School PTA at Carriage House Antiques. And throughout town there’ll be plenty of food available, including the Sperryville Rescue Squad at the Emporium and the Sperryville Fire Department at Faith Mountain, And, if you decide to head out into the mountains, there are a number of general stores which stock complete picnic supplies. Since Main Street will be blocked off during the festival, which runs from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. both days, rain or shine, Mrs. Woodard suggested that "the best bet”is to park the car at the Sperryville Emporium and walk. Parking is free all day at the Emporium. “It’s shaping up to be a really exciting show,” Mrs. Stephens said. “I’m really pleased with the entertainment line-up as well — we’re looking forward to a great weekend.” Mrs. Woodard seconded that comment, adding that the long range forecast is for a beautiful fall weekend. Although it’s a little early for the peak fall colors, she promised that anyone who joins the festival will enjoy a, beautiful day in the country. [ And who knows — with professional football on the skids, the Apple Harvest Celebration/Artists of the Blue Ridge Show just might be the perfect excuse to take the family for a Sunday drive in the country. Sperryville, said the sponsors, is waiting with open arms. . First Fruits celebrates fulfillment of giving By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Ncwa Contributing Writer Painters, sculptors, poets and writers have long found inspiration in the peaceful beauty of rural settings. But performing artists are more likely to discover their Muse in the crowded city with its proliferation of stages in theaters, clubs, civic centers and auditoriums. First Fruits: A Contemporary Ritual, an ambitious and innovative collaboration with original choreography, original score and an array of ritual art, proves convincingly that all artists can flourish in the country. The combination performance and exhibition grew out of Joel Royer’s quest for completion. Hoyer weaves i; ritual baskets that evoke the art forms of the ancients and celebrate mankind’s now tenuous connections to the natural world. But the baskets, fetishes and jewelry he creates “could truly become ritual objects only by going through a ritual,” the artist explained. So he set out to find a ritual. He took his idea to Sally Nash, a choreographer and dancer who, like Hoyer, had abandoned Washington, D.C. for the foothills of the Blue Ridge. In Rappahannock County, she had founded The Last Minute Wood Company, named for the scramble that greets the arrival of winter in the country, and in the intervening decade, she turned talented novices into accomplished dancers. Working closely with her troupe, she drew on her experiences and theirs to create stunning dance drama, part improvisational and part meticulously choreographed. She agreed to perform the ritual and began a search of her own for the form. “Then this book just fell into my hands,” Nash recalled. Lewis Hyde’s The Gift describes other cultures where gift cycles exist. “Some were very evocative. I picked the ones that meant the most to me and I started acting them out. The poetry of his prose brought the movement out of a very deep place within me. It’s not mime but dance.” (See FRUITS, p. 18) 1. &:;wm ■UppahiHiock Newt photo/OMly kMw PREPARING FOR THE PREMIERE of “First Fruits” are, from left, Laurie Marshall, choral grapher Sally Nash and Steve Brown. ^

Day realtor HIRING A HOUSE INSPECTOR Naturally you will carefully inspect any home you intend to purchase as best you can. However, if you are not a building expert and you have some serious questions about the house’s structure or systems, it makes sense to hire an independent house inspector to do a professional job. If this is your case, here are a few pointers. Home inspectors are supposed to work FOR the buyer. The real estate agent is not the inspection expert and he or she will be the first to tell you. Hire a house inspector who is totally impartial. That means someone who simply inspects the house and submits the findings but does nothing whatsoever to correct any fault he may find. In that way, the inspector will not be motivated to “discover” a lot of extra faults as a means toward finding repair work. The inspector should be knowledgeable enough to give approximate costs of repairs as a guide so the client can make an informed decision on the house. If there is anything we can do to help you in the field of real estate, please drop in at EILEEN M. DAY, Realtor, The Clopton House, Washington, Va. 22747. Phone: 6743400. We’re here to help.

House Tour features ‘Summer Kitchen9 uioi annum nappanannocK House Tour and Dried Flower Sale will be held Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 17 and 18. Over the years this event, sponsored by the Churchwomen of Bromfield Parish, has been a popular highlight of the fall season in Rappahannock County. Headquarters, as always, will be the Parish Hall of Trinity Episcopal Church in historic Washington Three homes will be open for viewing on Saturday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. Block tickets are on sale for $6 and tickets for individual homes for $2.50.

The first of the houses to be shown is the Summer Kitchen, located in the heart of Washington. This unique residence consists of -three dependencies of what is now Clopton House, built by Judge Edward Jones in the early 19th century. These are the summer kitchen itself, a dairy and a smoke house/root cellar. Summer kitchens kept the main house cooler, kept cooking odors out of the living areas and reduced the chances of fire in “the big house.” In 1974, Washington cabinetmaker Peter Kramer and his wife Joyce remodeled these three structures into a single house, joining the smoke house to the dairy with a skylighted hallway and the dairy to the kitchen through the addition of a living room on the east side which now looks out on a lovely patio. Hie . kitchen still serves as such and has a bedroom above. The dairy is now the bath and the smoke house a bed/sitting room. To the latter Mr. Kramer : added a greenhouse wall making a solarium which brings the natural ; beauty of the surrounding trees into the living area. The kitchen is dominated by a large stone fireplace whose hearth is - made of sizeable local stone slabs. Above the fireplace is an exact rep. lica of a Shaker mantel stove by . Peter Kramer. This wood stove, resembling an elongated mailbox,, is fed from one end and is more effi- cient than the fireplace itself.

The Amis8ville Volunteer Fire Department is marking the annual event with an open house on Saturday, Oct. 3. The affair will serve as both the kickoff for Fire Prevention Week activities and the culmination of the department’s yearly door-to-door fundraising appeal, which has been going on during the month of September. The open house, which will run from 1 to 4 p.m., is designed to give the community a chance to become acquainted with the fire department and the services which it can provide. All of the department’s apparatus will be on display, and members will be present to answer questions about the various pieces. At the same time, the open house will offer the members of the department an excellent opportunity to educate the public in reducing the chances of having an accidental fire break out. A department spokesman noted that, with the wood-heating season about to begin, it is especially important that people be aware of how to heat safely with wood, as well as with other ftiels. But the open house will not be limited to fire prevention. Amissville provides Emergency Medical Services as well, and its rescue vehicles will be on display, along with the squad’s crash truck and extrication tools. The Pegasus Med-Evac helicopter, based at the University of Virginia Medical Center. in Charlottesville, is also scheduled to arrive at 1 p.m. and stay for about an hour. The commitment is tentative, however. Pegasus is always on call, and if a request for med-evac services is received, the chopper will leave or, if en route, divert to the location where they are needed. Members of the Amissville squad will offer free blood pressure checks to all who visit. Among the demonstrations will be fire extinguishers and smoke alarms. The company has accumulated a variety of both devices, and, since some are designed for special purposes, they will advise visitors on the best type for specific uses. Fire extinguishers and smoke alarms will also be available for sale. There will also be members who will explain Operation EDITH, a program designed to allow every family to devise an escape procedure in the event of fire. For the kids, there will be balloons and fire prevention coloring books, and Smokey the Bear will visit from 2:30-3 p.m. There will be movies for both children and adults all afternoon, free hot dogs and sodas, and door prizes for some lucky visitors. And the department will also have a table set up for recruitment of, new members. Although a variety of brochures and other literature will be available at the open house, Se who wishes fire prevennformation may write to ville Volunteer Fire Department, P. O.

Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation. i i i * I i THURSDAY, OCTOBER 1,1987 Editorials j The story is: No quorum I There should be a story in this week’s paper about the -meeting of the Town of Washington’s Planning Commission Monday afternoon. The commission was to discuss the proposed amendments to the Historic District Ordinance, and make recommendations to the Town Council for .consideration. *■ There’s no story, or rather the story is that only three - members showed up. Since four members are needed fora “.quorum, the meeting was cancelled, again. That’s been the story for a year now. The commission ;used to have five members. It seemed impossible, after a ‘’.'number of attempts, to gather a quorum so TowrfCouncil . expanded it to seven members, hoping to get at least four at "each meeting. " So far, no good. „ Monday’s meeting date and time, we understand, met • with the approval of all members of the commission. We don’t ''know why the other members didn’t show, and it’s not really “important. What is important is that the Planning Commission has 'important business to conduct, and matters which need ^consideration. The members of the commission need to make some decisions. If they are unwilling or unable to carry out • their duties, which include attending scheduled meetings, •‘they should resign from the commission. If they wish to serve, they should attend meetings or notify someone of their •absence in advance. Other than a sudden emergency, that’s , , ''just common courtesy. " v It’s a waste of everyone’s time to schedule meetings, ™ : )iave a few members show up, and then wait for an hour ^’wondering if anyone else will show. ; The present situation needs to be changed. It’s intolerable and unfair to all involved. ~One more chance At the risk of sounding like a broken record, we’re going to again urge county residents who have not yet registered to vote to make that extra effort to get it done by the deadline: Saturday, Oct. 3. The county’s registrar, Ruth Kilby, and her staff have been going the extra mile for the last month. They’ve visited each area of the county, taking pains to make sure that residents in that area have at least one evening and one Saturday when they can register, for those who find it impossible to do so during regular business hours (8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday). This week, they’re at it one more time. • On Friday, Oct. 2, they’ll be at the F & M National Bank in Flint Hill from 5 to 7 p.m. • On Saturday, they’ll staff the Registrar’s office in the Courthouse in Washington from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Over the past few years, the voting rolls have increased by 10.9 percent, compared to a 2.3 percent increase in population. That’s a favorable trend, but registration is still not 100 percent. And Mrs. Kilby and her staff probably won’t give up the late evenings and weekends until it is. We again urge all unregistered residents of the county to add your names to the rolls. Democracy can work only if the people participate: Or, to look at the other side — if you don’t vote, what jj right do you have to complain about your elected officials? ij Get involved. Register to vote. \ Candidates reminded j of right-of-way laws 4 In their efforts to get candidates i* elected to local, state or federal of4 fices, overly enthusiastic campaign (J workers could be breaking state law <• without knowing it. J Posting roadside campaign postere or advertisements may provide a •J convenient method of drawing atten4 tion to a candidate, but the Virginia 5 Department of Transportation 4 (VDOT) reminds state residents J that the posting of such signs within .« the highway rights of way is illegal. •J ‘These signs not only pose a po> tential safety hazard by blocking jj highway signs and motorists’ sight !*• distance at intersections, but they £ also cost the taxpayers money for ; their removal,” said Boyd Cassell, £ an environmental planner for the de.4 partment. ; Individuals violating section <. .33.1-373 of the Code of Virginia can L be charged with a misdemeanor. The law prohibits not only the placement of political signs on state rights of way, but other advertisements and signs such as yard sale, lost pet or for sale signs. As election time nears, campaigners will be posting signs promoting their candidates. VDOT requests that these workers cooperate Jay keeping campaign posters away from the highway rights of way. Realtors and other personal advertisers also are requested to take heed. “We are urging people to be especially careful of where they post their signs, to remove them once the event is over, and to dispose of them properly,” Mr. Cassell said. ‘'This is a problem that can be solved if everyone helps.” pRappahannock Heritage lUppahanoock New* ptoK/Cindy Mahan WITH THE RAIN RECENTLY, mushrooms like these Boletes are popping up all over the county. Mushroom hunters remind those less familiar with the fungi that wild mushrooms should never be eaten unless the picker is absolutely certain that it is edible. Low income rales RICHMOND — More affordable local telephone service for Virginians \yith low incomes will be offered under a plan announced by the State Corporation Commission. The SCC said Friday it requested the state’s 20 local exchange telephone companies to submit a “Virginia Universal Service Plan.” The plan will offer low-priced basic phone service to state residents whose income is at or below the poverty level. “TTie introduction of Universal Service Plans by Virginia’s local exchange companies ensures that everyone will have access to local phone service,” SCC Commissioner Preston C. Shannon said. The state’s five imgor phone companies filed tariffs for Universal Service with the SCC Friday, said SCC spokesman Ken Schrad. The plan, which would also offer reduced service connection and line connection charges, will be available no later than Jan. 1,1988, Schrad said. There is no estimate as to how many Virginians would qualify to apply for the service, Schrad said. Industry representatives, the SCC and the secretary of human resources will negotiate eligibility requirements, he said. The five companies that filed tariffs were: Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Co. of Virginia, Continental Telephone of Virginia, Central Telephone Co. of Virginia, General Telephone Co. of the Southeast and United Inter-Mountain Telephone Co. Virginia’s 15 smaller telephone companies will file tariffs by Oct. 1. C&P, the state’s largest telephone company with about 2 million customers, would provide basic dial-tone service to eligible customers for $2.50 a month. Outgoing calls would be priced according to usage, and customers would have two options. The lowest-priced service now being offered by C&P is its economy message and economy measured services. These plans have a basic monthly rate of $5 plus a $2.60 subscriber line charge, a federal tariff that may be waived for residential customers covered by a Universal Service Plan. Initially, stockholders of Bell Atlantic Corp., C&P’s parent company, will have to subsidize the special service, C&P said. At a later date, however, C&P probably will try to shift the responsibility to its existing customers as part of a rate case. Lottery toes target churches RICHMOND — One of the two main opposition groups to a state lottery unveiled a churchcentered campaign Thursday designed to get congregations involved in defeating the Nov. 3 referendum. “If I get 200 votes each out of 2,500 congregations, I’ll beat the lottery,” Robert R. Weed, political director of Virginians Against StateSponsored Gambling, said at a Capitol press conference. Weed distributed copies of the first two of five planned church bulletin inserts that his organization is distributing to denomination members of the Virginia Council of Churches and other nuyor religious groups in the state. The insert for Oct. 4 says the lottery makes its profit “by taking money from people who today don’t plan to gamble. And the lottery gets its votes from those who don’t plan to buy lottery tickets.” “Don’t vote to do unto others what you wouldn’t do yourself,” the insert said. The Oct. 11 insert says income spent on lottery tickets comes out of food, rent and clothing money. It goes on to say that the only thing lottery supporters can claim in return is that the lottery might save Virginians 25 cents a day in taxes. “Would you prefer for 200,000 children to have enough to eat? Or would you rather have a quarter?” the insert says. Church bulletin inserts also will be prepared for the following three Sundays leading up to election day, Weed said. But the nuyor push will be Oct. 18, when churches that use only one week’s insert will be asked to distribute the material then. I Across Virginia Weed said he was hoping for an initial distribution of 200,000 inserts and increase the number to 800,000 by the end of the campaign. He also distributed copies of "The Church Coordinators’ Handbook,” a guideline for telephone volunteers who call voters to urge them to defeat the lottery. Initial calls are to be made the ^yeek pf Oct. 12-16, with followup calls to remind apppnepts tp ypte on election day, to offer transpolls, and to by to persuade undecided voters. ' ii-sui.n*.* , The handbook’s concluding message to volunteers is, "Congratulations on your role in helping to stop crime, high taxes and broken families!” Weed said his organization has raised a little over $100,000, or about the same amount as the other main opposition group, Free Enterprisers Against the Lottery. He said his campaign was geared toward a low-turnout election where opposition from church members could tip the balance. “It will be won or lost in the church,” he said. Kenneth W. Storey, a spokesman for Virginians for the Lottery, said of Weed’s inserts that opponents have proved “once again that they are experts at distorting the truth. They ought to be ashamed of themselves. ” He said a lot of honest churchgoers will be influenced by the opponents’ claims. “I hope these good people see through the distortions,” he said. The pro-lottery group also issued a statement Thursday on the various budget needs that could be met with $201 million in estimated annual lottery revenues. “We would like to hear the anti-lottery groups go on the record as (saying) that we don’t need $201 million a year in additional revenue,” the statement said. “And if they Anally admit the obvious, that we can use the money, we would like to know how they plan to raise it without a lottery in Virginia.” Residents oppose deputy who killed man SPOTSYLVANIA — A group of Spotsylvania County residents has criticized Sheriff T.C. Waddy for his hiring of a white deputy who fatally shot a black man while working as a Fredericksburg police officer in 1981. Waddy met for about two hours Thursday night with Spotsylvania Concerned Citizens for Action, a predominantly black group formed to protest the hiring of Deputy Kenneth W. Jones. Waddy told the crowd of about 120 people he may have acted too hastily in hiring Jones, but stopped short of promising any action. “If I had to do it over, I would think more and check more before I did it,” he said. “But before you can fire a person, there has to be some reason. You can’t just walk up to a man and say, ‘You’re fired.”’ The group presented Waddy with petitions signed by 992 county residents who oppose the Sept. 4 hiring of Jones. The petitioners asked Waddy to remove the deputy from the force as soon as possible. Six years ago, Jones shot and killed 28-yearold William D. Watkins while serving a warrant for non-support. Watkins was shot three times in the chest. Jones said Watkins attacked him with a hammer. Jones was charged with murder but was cleared when a judge ruled there was insufficient evidence against him. Fredericksburg police fired Jones after the Watkins shooting. Jones later was awarded $27,000 by a federal court jury that ruled he had been discriminated against when he was dismissed. A judge, however, refused to reinstate Jones to the police force. Waddy admitted he failed to check references at Fort A.P. Hill, where Jones, now 45, worked as a game warden for six years., .. * Virginians approve of Baliles RICHMOND — A poll of 678 Virginia voters found that 70 percent believe Gov. Gerald L. Baliles is doing a good job and that few are upset over the large tax increase he won last year for transportation. The Richmond Times-Dispatch poll, conducted between Sept. 9 and Sept. 17, showed just over 11 percent disapprove or strongly disapprove and 19 percent are undecided about Baffles performance as he approaches the midpoint of his four-year term. The poll had a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points. Polls generally show a high public regard for Virginia governors. In' October 1983, a1 Tiiries*-Dispatch poll showed Democrat Charles S. Rdbb, Baliles’'predecessor, with a 73-percent approval rating as he neared the halfway point of his term. Lottery favored 2-1 RICHMOND — Virginians favor a statewide lottery by more than 2-to-l, according to a Richmond Times-Dispatch poll. The poll, based on interviews Sept. 9-17 with 678 registered voters, showed significant support in all regions of the state as well as among all income, racial, religious and age groups. Just over 66 percent said they would vote for the lottery referendum on Nov. 3, 29 percent were opposed and 5 percent were undecided, according to the poll, which has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percent. Two out of three said they would play a Virginia lottery. The survey also found that: • nearly half believe a lottery can prevent another tax increase; twenty-seven percent disagree and 22 percent are neutral; • sixty percent reject the view that a lottery is immoral; • voters favor state-promotion of the lottery, 54 percent to 39 percent; the lottery law includes a ban on advertising. The pro-lottery forces were buoyed by the poll, but said it should not be seen as a harbinger of election day. Opponents said the survey shows they must win converts as well as muster thenvote. “The poll shows sentiment, but not the vote,” said Billy Sublett, political director of Virginians for the Lottery. “Remember what happens when you have a large vocal minority.” Parimutuel betting looked like a runaway winner nine years ago, but it was stopped by an unexpected surge of conservative voters urged to the polls by their ministers. A Times-Dispatch poll in September 1978 showed Virginians favoring parimutuel betting, 54 percent to 33 percent. And as with horserace gambling, lottery foes believe that they have an advantage in what Gregson labeled the “strength of emotion. ” Lottery supporters fear that evidence of widespread support will diminish voter interest in the issue. The lottery’s strongest support is in voterich Northern and eastern Virginia, at 74 percent and 66 percent, respectively. The lowest level of support, 61 percent, was recorded in the Shenandoah Valley. Middle-income voters show the greatest enthusiasm for the lottery. More than 70 percent of those with a family income last year of $20,000 to $34,999 want a state-run numbers game. The poll also showed that the lottery is backed by roughly two out of three respondents in the other income brackets — under $20,000; $35,000to $49,999; and $50,000 or more. Support by gender generally mirrors the overall figures: Men favor the lottery nearly 70 percent to 23 percent, and women back it in a ratio of 63 percent to 33 percent. White voters favor the lottery by better than 2-to-l. Black voters support the lottery 71 percent to 28 percent. The poll suggests that Catholic and Jewish voters solidly favor a lottery. Protestant voters, who comprise the bulk of respondents, support the lottery, 62 percent to 32 percent. Young voters, ages 18-24, favor a lottery by more than an 8-to-l in the poll.

Ground water meeting in F redericksburg Tlie fifth in a series of seven regional meetings that are designed to look at ways to protect Virginia’s ground water will be held from 9 am. to 4:15 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 22, at the Sheraton Inn in Fredericksburg.

EMS week is designed to recognize the men and women nationwide 'who devote their time and energies .to helping the sick and injured in , time of emergency. Across the country emergency medical personnel sponsor activities to increase the puimc awareiwss ui mifio oiiu w piv mote safety and health issues. One focus of EMS Week this year is the effort to encourage the use of safety belts through public awareness of Virginia’s mandatory use law that will take effect Jan. 1,1988. It is the EMS providers who must treat the initial effects of an unrestrained victim of an automobile ' accident. Who better to underscore the importance of safety belt use than those who see the carnage wrought on those who choose not to “buckle up”? Highway-related injuries result in about 45,000 fatalities a year in the U.S., or about 90 percent of all transport fatalities including air or rail. In Virginia each day more than 195 people are injured on our highways and at least two people will die from auto crashes. One out of every 16 Virginia drivers will be involved in a crash, most occurring within 25 miles from home at speeds of 15 mph or less, according to EMS statistics.

In terms of manpower, an estimated 200 medical and health professionals are required to care for one severely injured person. When the actual costs for hospital care are added, the economic burden is staggering. The human cost of motor vehicle crashes is especially tragic. Motor vehicle accidents are never expected events. When they happen, they not only shatter lives, but leave behind a legacy of emotional, physical and financial hardship to endure. Safety belts offer the best hope to reduce th^j^iormous human 'and economic costs ' immediately, the council spokesman said. Regular use of safety belts cuts by half your chances of being seriously injured or killed in an auto accident. It is estimated that if all front seat occupants who do not currently use safety belts would buckle up, we could prevent between 8,000 'ana 10,000 fatalities nationwide. "That’s reason enough for all of us to buckle up, even on the shortest trip,” the spokesman concluded. —himm—' 111 mimiiiiii i ■ iiiiiiiiipiiwiiui———i in i i ■mi !■ Photo courtesy of AmiuviUe VFD Out of the Attic PROUD VOLUNTEERS of the Amissville VFD, from left, Mitchell Green, Fred Cooke’ and Lloyd Bywaters, appear in a parade in 1952, the year the company was founded.

Fall for pork — the other white meat Pork’s position in the white meat category is really nothing new, according to the National Pork Producers Council. They designed the innovative 1987 pork campaign. The Webster’s Unabridged dictionary of 1934 defined pork as a white meat and still does in the 1986 edition. “White meat - a meat (as veal and pork) that is light in color especially when cooked.” It would appear that current misconceptions stem from casual distinctions drawn between meat and poultry. This fall add some new pork recipes to your traditional favorites. The National Pork Producers Council has two free recipe booklets entitled “New Classics” and “Light Ideas.” Just send a stamped, self-addressed, legal size envelope for each copy to New Classics or Light Ideas, P.O.

Talk important after trauma By JOHN BORGENS Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer In my role as clinical coordinator for the Critical Incident Stress Debriefing team for the RappahannockRapidan Emergency Medical Services Council, I h re gotten acquainted with many of our EMS personnel. Our rescue squad workers and firefighters subject themselves to a lot of stress, both immediate and cumulative, just by the nature of their work. I have gained a great deal of respect for these volunteers, who give up their time to attend lengthy training sessions and then run calls and raise money. Often their efforts go unnoticed or are taken for granted until we need their services. Of course, many of their calls become routine over time, but they never know when the next one will be particularly upsetting. Imagine being a volunteer rescue squad worker, on your way to a multi-car accident. Wondering about the circumstances aftd extent of possible injuries, your pulse rate would probably rise and your palms become sweaty. And the actual work required at the scene under pressure of time, possibly with lives hanging in the balance, is stressful in itself. These workers, more than most of us, are subjected to a great deal of stress by the nature of their work. Recognizing this, the Common FAffliLY F&CU* wealth of Virginia’s Emergency Medical Services department has established regional Critical Incident Stress Debriefing (CISD) teams to help fire and rescue personnel involved in particularly upsetting situations deal with their emotions about the situation in a healthy manner. This is analogous to an Employee Assistance program for our emergency services personnel. What we have learned is that it is vitally important to talk with others — to share our feelings — following a traumatic incident. But you don’t have to be involved in emergency services work to experience trauma or emotional upset as a part of life. It can happen, for example, due to the sudden death of a parent, child or close friend. It is especially likely if the death occurred as a result of a situation which was gruesome, or which involved extreme pain. It may be even more upsetting if anyone involved has thoughts that the death may have been prevented L _iinunareas or r-rame oiyies... * Let us help you select the most Flattering Shape and Color.

Talking to someone you trust — a close friend, relative, clergyman or counselor at the appropriate time — is an important part of the healing process. Too often, people hide their feelings, suffer in silence and carry their hurt or anguish around for years. The healing process can start any time a person is willing to reach out. There is no need for past feelings to hold people back from continuing to grow and developing their potential. John Borgen8 is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in private practice.

Country ham: A fall favorite By SANDRA RICHARDSON , Extenskxi Agent, Home Economic* Fall is here. It’s country ham, red eye gravy and hot biscuits time once again! Today’s market offers country ham just about any way you may choose to buy it. . . whole, half and slices ... cooked or uncooked. Some places even sell the chips or crumbs that come when slicing. A 10-pound ham will give 64 slices and each additional pound will give 10 slices. If this is the only meat to be served, a 10-pound ham will serve 25; 38 servings if there is a second meat. Approximately 250 ham biscuits can be made from a 10-pound ham. Short cure and long cure - what is the difference? Short cure means that it is aged six months or less. These generally need to be soaked in cold water from 6-8 hours. Long cure means that it is aged at least six months or longer. These hams have a much stronger flavor and for most people’s taste will require soaking 10-12 hours before cooking. The length of the soaking time will determine the mildness of the meat. In Virginia, Smithfield ham is seen in stores and discussed frequently. While the taste is similar, the Smithfield ham lover can tell the difference. The genuine Smithfield hams come from the hindquarters of peanut-fed hogs and by law must have been cured, treated, smoked and processed law in the town of Smithfield. These hams are usually long-shanked and have been aged for at least six months. To prepare the ham for soaking, begin by scrubbing with a stiff brush in warm water. This type of ham may be covered with mold. That’s perfectly okay. In fact, mold is a normal characteristic of this type of ham. It is the same type found in aged cheese. Mold forms during the curing process because of the reaction between the moisture from the ham and the humidity and heat from the air. Sometimes a ham can still be too salty when cooked. All is not lost. It can be soaked for a time again and then cooked again. To cook country ham, place it in a large cooker, skin side down. Cover with fresh water and bring to 180 degrees F. Cover and simmer. Water may need to be added from time to time. Allow 20-25 minutes per pound. The ham is ready if the flat pelvic bone can easily be removed. The ham can be de-boned or dressed up by cutting away the rind, scoring the fat and applying a glaze. Some people prefer to use a brown-sugar glaze. Here are two versions together with a HoneyMustard Glaze. Brown Sugar Glaze I Whole cloves 1 cup brown sugar Place a whole clove in the intersections of the fat where scored. Rub brown sugar over ham. Place under broiler until sugar is carmelized.

Garnish with pineapple rings. In the center of each ring, secure maraschino cherries with toothpicks. Bake at 300 degrees F. for 30 minutes. Carving can be an important factor in enhancing the flavor of country ham. The knife needs to be long, narrow and razor-sharp. The slices need to be very thin for the flavor to come through. To start the carving, mnko a cut perpendicular to the bone about six inches in from the end of the hock. Cut a wedge-shaped piece from the ham so as to leave the cut surface at an angle of 45 degrees. Continue cutting at a 45-degree angle, bringing the knife to the bone each time. As slices become larger, decrease the angle of the knife. Country ham has good keeping qualities. Wrap it tightly in brown paper or aluminum foil and refrigerate. Do not use plastic wrap. It holds moisture and speeds the spoiling process. Whole cooked ham properly wrapped will keep in the refrigerator up to 6-8 weeks. For directions on de-boning a whole country ham and cooking directions, call the Extension Office at 676-3619.

The theme for the week nationwide is “4-H for Youth for America.” The theme has special meaning for Virginia 4-H because of the heavy emphasis on citizenship. Many 4-H’ers will be highlighting their activities in citizenship, leadership, and community service. The state’s two land-grant universities, Virginia State and Virginia Tech, have designated Saturday, Oct. 4, as 4-H Day to honor the young people. Each has scheduled events on campus prior to their football games with Livingstone College and the Naval Academy, respectively, and will recognize the campus visitors during the two contests. There are more than 40 educational projects offered by 4-H, which is open to all youth between the ages of nine and 19 regardless of race, color, religion, sex, language, or national origin. Next week, the Rappahannock News will present a special salute to 4-H, in honor of the national celebration. PLEASE KEEP IT DOWN. Hl|tNood[in«nn can be ) Kara how, call us. coraroUed.

ICU/CCU Care: State-Of-The-Art. People who think a community hospital doesn’t have sophisticated technology are in for a big surprise when they see the intensive care/coronary care unit (ICU/CCU) at Warren Memorial Hospital. The hospital recently purchased state-of-theart monitoring equipment to keep a computerized record of each patient’s vital signs, heart rate, breathing, and other important data. Each of the eight private patient rooms in ICU /CCU is equipped with a monitor. A central monitor, showing each patient’s status, is located at the nurses’ station. At the request of a physician or nurse, a printout of the patient’s signs can be produced. The equipment also has a memory bank that can recall a patient’s signs from earlier in the day to allow physicians to chart a patient’s progress. It’s important for patients in the ICU/CCU to get out of bed and walk around as soon as they are »v able. New mobile monitoring units allow a physician to monitor a patient’s status while moving about. jMr Patients who have had a heart attack or are W recovering from heart disease spend an average of two to five days in the ICU / CCU before being transferred . to a regular patient room. Patients recovering from major surgery spend one to three days in the unit. “This sophisticated technology helps us take even better care of our patients,” said Pat Richardson, I R.N., M.S., Director of Nursing. 1 Free M Community r Services. ■ arren Memorial 1 lospital otters free support groups for patients and their families and other educational services to help improve t he J health ot the community.

Abundant, versatile black walnut trees By BUCK KLINE Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer Anyone with an eye leaned toward observing nature knows that black walnut is one of the first trees to warn of the oncoming fall and winter. The trees in my back yard have already shed most of their leaves and some nuts are now beginning to drop. , Many people gather these nuts to crack. The flavorful kernels can either be sold or used in your kitchen. Wildlife also makes use of these nuts which the tree begins to bear in good numbers when it is about 30 years old. It is a favorite food of squirrels, especially fox squirrels. Some birds, such as the red bellied woodpecker, as well as whitetail deer and black bear have been known to eat the nuts. Squirrels usually will bury some nuts for winter. Oftentimes they forget where they were buried and a new seedling will sprout the following spring. In fact, an amazing number of walnut trees originate in this way. The walnut tree is a member of the hickory family. Only two species of walnut are found in the eastern United States — black walnut and butternut — however, there are 20 species worldwide. Walnut trees are most easily identified by their compound leaves and nuts. In the winter, they are easily identified by their odor. Simply cut the bark or scratch a twig with a pocket knife. The thick twigs and dark, furrowed bark are good clues also. Most good quality black walnut grows in coves and well drained bottoms where the soil is moist and fertile. Usually where yellow poplar and white ash are found, walnuts can be found also. On a good site a walnut tree may live to be 250 years old. Years ago in Indiana, walnut trees were measured that were 150 feet tall and 6 feet in diameter. The State Champion of Virginia, found in Colonial Williamsburg, is 100 feet tall with a circumference of 16 feet. 4 inches. Yes, walnut trees have the potential for being valuable. Most are not. Walnut logs have occasionally sold for more than $10,000. A single log can be sliced into acres of veneer that is 1/64 inch thick. The trees make fine lumber that is used in furniture and cabinet making. One drawback is that walnut notoriously grows in and on the fringes of pasture. Sawmills have run across barbed wire, nails, and an occasional horseshoe when sawing the logs. Firearms manufacturers value walnut in making gunstocks. Many gunstocks are made from the roots where unusual patterns in the wood's grain are found. It is good for gunstocks not only for its beauty but also since it is rated “excellent” in its ability to absorb recoil better than most other woods. Also, it does not shrink, crack, or warp with age. The tree has been used historically for a wide variety of other purposes. Early pioneers used the inner bark to make a mild laxative and a leaf tea was used against bed bugs. The husk of the nut was considered useful in treating intestinal worms, ulcers, and syphilis. The fruit juice was drunk as a tapeworm treatment and gargled to treat diptheria. Trappers also boil their traps in a walnut husk solution to remove all traces of foreign odor. Extractions from the husk and bark have historically been used to produce green, brown and black dyes. Oddly enough, the tree cannot be used for pulpwood since the dark wood is too difficult to bleach in making paper. One of the most unusual attributes of black walnut is its ability to inhibit the growth of other plants and the germination of their seeds. Most gardeners know that you just cannot grow much under a walnut tree. The reason in Juglone. This is a chemical found in walnut tree roots, bark, leaves, and husks. This chemical is usually found in the soil from the base of the tree out to the drip line. The only alternatives are to move the garden or cut down the tree. As you can see, black walnut has been and always will be an important part of our Virginia landscape.

' Co-op members get dividends Culpeper Fanners’ Cooperative Inc. mailed $367,000 in cash refunds to members and patrons on Sept. 15, according to T. E. Gore, executive vice president and general manager. In addition to the cash portion of the refund, $634,000 was allocated to Cooperative patrons and members in patronage refund equity allocations. The patronage equity portion of the Cooperative’s 1986 refund is the capital provided by the members and users of the Cooperative for financing the Cooperative’s operations. It will be returned to the users of the Cooperative by the direction of its board of directors. Cooperative President W. A. Spillman Jr. stated that the board has followed an established plan in returning the equity on a revolving fund basis and will mail the 1972 equities in October. The Cooperative is owned, operated and financed by the 30,000 patrons and 4,500 members who purchase supplies and services from its retail stores in Culpeper, Rappahannock, Remington, Warrenton, Marshall and Maurertown (Shenandoah County). Gore reported that 1987 sales volume for eight months of operation has exceeded the same period of 1986. Members of the board of direc tors from Rappahannock County are James F. Massie and A. Y. Stokes. ^BACKYARD* By Craig Tufts, National Wildlife Federation Tips on winter bird feeding By CRAIG TUFTS Natkwal Wildlife Federation Early fall is time to re-evaluate the placement of your birdfeeders. A feeder’s location should be convenient and highly visible for you and safe and secure for the birds. All of us eiyoy the antics of small seed-eating winter visitors. Goldfinches, the “red” finches, chickadees and nuthatches respond to polemounted tubular or round plastic feeders filled with sunflower seed. Place these feeders at least four feet from the ground. Dense shrubs or small trees nearby offer perches as birds visit the feeder. Chickadees and nuthatches need tree limbs nearby against which they can hull sunflower seed. More birds seek out suet in winter than any other single type of food. Place it in plastic-coated wiremesh holders. Hang these from tree limbs or mount them against a dead tree’s trunk. Suet feeders placed on healthy tree trunks invite the rapid invasion of tree-damaging insects and fungi. Don’t place suet too close to a window unless you eryoy washing windows. Birds flick suet pieces off their bills, making a greasy mess of the glass. The best type of feeder for attracting ground feeders, birds that feed in groups - or squirrels, is a simple feeding table. Place this feeder on a pole 12-18 inches from the ground. Cat-concealing cover should be at least ten feet away. Good quality mixed bird seed consisting of proso millets, sunflower and perhaps a bit of cracked corn, hulled sunflower and peanut pieces will Giles attends writers’ seminar Kenneth Giles, a freshman at Rappahannock County High School this fall, attended the sixth annual Young Writers Workshop at the University of Virginia this summer.

I use a 2by-3-foot piece of marine plywood edged with molding and mounted on a piece of 4-by-4 as a serviceable feeding table. I’ve given you ideas about feeder types, locations and foods to put in them. Let’s look at one safety consideration, from a bird’s point of view. Although we want to view visiting birds clearly and comfortably from inside our warm homes, feeders are best located either very close to our windows or a good distance - 30 or more feet - from them. Such placement may eliminate a good proportion of bird-window collisions. Place feeders far enough from windows so that birds have flying space and reaction time around a feeder after being frightened. You might take a bird’s-eye view of your windows from your feeder’s location during key feeding times - eariy morning and late afternoon. If what you see as you look toward your house appears to be something you would want to fly into if you were a bird, move the feeder to a less appealing location. You will find homebound birdwatching more enjoyable this winter by conducting some fine tuning of your feeding program right now.

Judy Tole, acting as president due to President Cindi Andreoni’s illness, addressed a group of 50 administrators, teachers and parents. Superintendent Dr. David Gangel voiced his hopes for a successful year for the PTA and offered his assistance to help make it successful. A supervisors’ candidate forum will be held Tuesday, Oct. 6, at the elementary school. All of the incumbents and challengers for the supervisors positions are invited by the PTA to attend and answer questions on educational issues only. Doug Baumgardner will be moderator. Last year’s members voted to revise several by-laws. These revisions are: (1) Change annual dues from $1.10 to $2. (2) Officers shall now be elected by ballot annually in the month of April instead of by voice vote. (3) The nomination committee will no longer be appointed by the President - members will be elected by the executive committee. (4) The executive committee was expanded to include not only the officers but also the chairmen of standing committees, principal and faculty representatives. (5) Dates for regular executive committee meetings will be decided on at the first executive meeting. Upcoming PTA events were discussed and a plea was extended for volunteers to help with the functions. Some of the events include sock hops, Fun Fair, P/T dinners. Teacher Appreciation Week, Music Week, Volunteer Directory, run-off service, lunchroom monitors, Junior Great Books, newsletter and school survey. Anyone interested in helping with any of these should contact Cindi Andreoni at 987-8760. An important PTA date to remember is Saturday, Oct. 3. Maggie Rogers will run an apple pitch at the Sperryville Apple Festival. Proceeds will begin a fund raising campaign for the bus communications system. The campaign will continue through October with other fundraising activities. The goal is $5,000, which will supply the central office with a base station and some of the buses with radios. The idea originated with elementary school Principal Maggie Piper’s concerns about buses which had no way to communicate an emergency situation to the school or emergency services other than sending a child or the driver going to a nearby house to call for help or flagging down a passing car. “Safety is the main issue in this campaign,” said President Andreoni. On Thursday, Oct. 8, at 2 p.m. the PTA and RAAC will sponsor a presentation of Music of the People in the elementary school auditorium for grades kindergarten through seventh. Friday, Nov. 6, The Spanish Dance Theater will perform at the school. This is the second of four cultural arts programs scheduled for the year which the PTA and RAAC will sponsor. Teacher Kim Roy is helping the PTA coordinate a sock hop benefitting Special Olympics. Membership chairman Barry Lenardson encouraged all parents and teachers to join the PTA this year. The goal is to have 100 percent membership. Anyone interested may contact him at 937-5343. The next meeting will be a short business meeting Oct. 6 at 7:30 before the candidates’ forum. All persons interested in the county’s educational system are encouraged to attend. xx<*x<<-XsXX^xx-xxo-x-xsx-x^x-x:-x-xxx-.vXX"xxvXxX^-:X>x<X:>>Tx:?x::x-:::-xxXv-xx:><:% CufflsflS’lczA/lotoX doxfl. ^Pontiac - - (IcdfcSS - {Jcdf c/fnnouncss ^Ufiivuulcaj, (L\tofsx 1st as tfis dbfiowLng of tfis . , cdVsw igSSipontiac and ^pAj\d ^VsfiLoCss. t« J 1 f2bhis fif*and see tfis, sxaltthg nsOjlQSS iPontica dais and ^IJrucfs on dismay. dufjiefiexzdliotoT doxjioxation is conveniently Located at 401 ffameicdl/(adiion cdfiyfiivay in tfie toum of duCfiefjex, next to tlie duLfief^ex tSLiofifiiny dentex,<cdVoxt(i. jj ^dJsCsfltlOnS 825-8381 dCx. no. 0412 $ Annual Rate 85ft iMfirO AnnuaWleld S-YfeOT CO Get more ban9ft?^osittmrn Fa^ersan<1 agSSSlS. eJmingthe W*® rate in the market. $5,000.

(Continued from Page 1) input on a continuing basis from the immunity.” ;£•! Asked about his feelings on growth, since Jackson District is the fiistest growing area of the county, With several large subdivisions planned just east of the county border, Mr. Henry replied that “it will be a major challenge to maintain the $enic, open beauty of the county. TBiere is no way that you can stop growth - you have to control it to the extent permitted in the present coning ordinance,” which was enacted by the board just a month before Mr. Henry’s appointment. - “The ordinance provides,” he said, “for houses on small lots in the yillage areas, and 25-acre minimum lot size in the agricultural areas. There is also a provision for two-acre ■Qts for family subdivisions. That allows everybody to have housing in (he county, and I would like to see that maintained.” I He added, however, “as the residential and suburban pressures get {loser, I would not be surprised if the county’s zoning ordinance is challenged - as has happened with the mobile home ordinance in Fauquier County.” * In the past several years, the {punty’s budget has shot up, to just over $6 million this fiscal year. The corresponding large tax increases have the county’s residents worried about the future. What does Mr. Henry see there? “Rappahannock County was lucky for a number of years. We did not face any major expenses and were able to keep the tax rate down. Instead of raising the rates slowly and banking the money to build a cushion, the board made a decision to leave the money in people’s pockets.” Then came, in rapid succession, decisions to build the jail, expand the high school, and the need for a county-owned and operated landfill, he explained. “That impacted the t&x rate M “The landfill,” he said, “should be the last big expense. We have to do it right, we have to spend the money. But, by the end of (calendar year) 1988, we should know where we’re at. We should be back to a more normal situation, seeing the end of these astronomical tax increases each year.” With only one month remaining before the election, how does Mr. Henry see the race shaping up? “I’m going to become very active, beginning immediately. It’s going to be an uphill battle for me, but if I win I will feel it’s due to the tremendous support of my constituents, and I will represent them accordingly. “We have addressed a lot of problems - faced some major issues in a favorable way for the county. We’ve made a lot of progress - I’d like to continue.” f: Art classes for young people Z: Survey of Visual Arts for High School Students: The course > will expose participants to six media demonstrated by six profesC sional artists, including pottery, basketweaving, blacksmithing, 3 painting, commercial art and photography.

This leaves local governments the task of picking up an increasingly large share of the burgeoning bill for these educational programs. Most educators and government officials feel this is a problem which will continue, and probably worsen, during the coming years. RCHS expansion project deficit Early this year, the board approved a $1.5 million state loan for major expansion at the high school. The approval came after heated debate, with opponents questioning the wisdom of the plan’s expenditure of nearly half the funds on a new gymnasium and auditorium. When the project went out for bids, the lowest bidder came back at a cost $150,000 over the loan amount. Although some of that deficit was erased by cutting a number of items from the project’s plans, the loan still will not cover the cost of the entire project. According to school officials, that means that there may not be enough money to purchase seating for the gymnasium and the auditorium. More of the deficit was erased when Superintendent Dr. David Gangel requested that the $49,000 school budget surplus left at the end of the last fiscal year be restored to the budget by the supervisors. That request was approved, with the condition that it be used only for educational purposes. The question of how the remaining deficit will be covered remains unanswered. According to Camille Harris, who as chairman of the PTA’s legislative committee is in charge of the program, all of the candidates in the five magisterial districts have promised to attend the program. She said that the PTA decided at its May meeting to schedule the program, feeling that “the PTA is very interested in the candidates addressing issues which are of importance to the members of the PTA.” Mrs. Harris stressed that, although the forum will be held following the PTA’s meeting, it is open to the public as well, and she urged all interested county residents to attend. ’These are issues which affect all the residents of Rappahannock County, not just those people with children in the public schools.” Va.

Read <EIje fcappaljannocfe iletos for local news Fruits (Continued from Page 1) Nash chose two gift cycles. One is the Kula Ring of the Massim people in the South Seas. “They give ceremonial armbands counterclockwise in a circle to their neighbors to the west, while necklaces move clockwise to the east. Therefore, the gifts are eventually repaid, but never in kind, nor at predictable intervals,” Nash explained. This parallels her belief that “when giving works, it has a circularity. It may not come back from the same source, but it does come back. Maybe in a way you don’t expect, but it does come back.” Or as Hyde says in his book: “When I give to someone from whom I do not receive, it is as if the gift goes around the corner before it comes back.” The second gift cycle is based on a Maori ritual, the substance of which holds that fertility is a gift from God, and in order for it to continue, its first fruits are returned to Him as a return gift. Nash and Hoyer read The Gift. Both pursued their interpretation separately, and at the same time sought inspiration from the other. He gave her his baskets, and, holding them, she found new ways to move. He watched the dance and went back to his studio to create jewelry for the dancers to wear, fetishes for them to carry and a backdrop for them to perform against. Musicians Tom Espinola and Lorraine Duisit joined the collaboration. He watched the dance, studied the art and composed the score for First Fruits, which he and Duisit will play on harp, frame drums and guitar with Ralph Gordon adding acoustic bass. Duisit’s clear, soaring soprano counts as yet a fourth instrument, giving the music an emotional intensity to match the message of the dancers. The contemporary ritual leads with music, a mini-concert performed by the trio. The dance follows. It begins with a prayer as Nash asks for fertility of body, imagination and spirit. Her dance and Duisit’s accompanying vocal solo express the emptiness necessary for prayer. This flows into a duet, symbolic of the entrance into puberty. Apprehension and excitement build as the women dance over and over two snake sculptures.

New objects are introduced - baskets, dance sticks and whisks - and each is used through a variety of transformations that demonstrate the similarity which underlies surface differences. The end is birth and a presentation, a giving up, of these “first fruits.” Then comes celebration of the fertility that is ensured by giving and the fullness that comes through giving up, becoming empty. The celebration is an affirmation that each is necessary to the other. The artistry and expressive movement of the dancers belies their “real life” professions. All are dancers by avocation; by vocation, they are chef, building contractor, masseuse, landscaper, painter and teacher, floral artist and playwright, woodworker and a singer in a rock ‘n’ roll band. After the dance comes the third and final “act” of First Fruits: the exhibition of the art that required a ritual to be truly complete. The audience will be welcomed on stage to look at Moyer’s work more closely and to talk with the artist. “Most of theater and dance falls somewhere on a continuum between ritual and performance,” Nash said. “I call this a ritual in that I designed it, hoping that the performance of it would evoke a change in ourselves as well as the audience. Through enacting these stylized gift cycles, we seek an increased possibility of connection with each other, the community, the earth and the Mystery that surrounds us.” The premiere of First Fruits: A Contemporary Ritual will be Saturn day, Oct. 10, at 8 p.m. in the auditorium of Rappahannock County High School. Performances at James Madison University and the Dance Place in Washington, D.C., are scheduled for later in the fall. As a prelude to the premiere, Lewis Hyde, author o/The Gift, will speak at the Gay Street Theater in Washington, Virginia, on Friday, Oct. 9, at 8 p.m. First Fruits is produced under the joint auspices of the Virginia Commission for the Arts and the Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community.
