School Board finalizes year-end balance, winnows out administrative candidates After interviews, vice-principal job offers tendered At a pay-out meeting last Thursday, the Rappahannock School Board approved the year-end budget report and voted to ask the Board of Supervisors to reappropriate for 1988-89 the $86,032 remaining in the educational account, with the money to go for completion of the high school expansion. Superintendent David Gangel reported that the “big ticket” items on the expenditure list for the carried-over funds are auditorium seating, new lighting for the commons area and cafeteria, an additional cafeteria serving line, conduit and hook-up for the gymnasium scoreboard, renovation and integration of the old heating system with the new, library curtains, additional chairs and tables for the commons area, refurbishment and replacement of old office furniture, shrubs and landscaping for the gymnasium entrance, roofing for the boys’ old locker room which has been renovated into a classroom, and furnishings for the new special education room. To that list, the School Board members added refurbishing of the teachers’ lounge, a ticket-taker’s stand, and shrubbery to screen the rear of the mechanical room from the new gymnasium entrance. The board also accepted bids of 62.5 cents per gallon for leaded gasoline and 61.5 cents for unleaded from Quarles Oil Company, and 48.10 cents per gallon for fuel oil from Holtzman Oil Company. In personnel action, resignations were accepted from Tammy Heflin, third grade teacher, and Tracy Pence, RCHS math teacher. Sylvia Moore was hired as an elementary school teacher. Following interviews with job candidates Tuesday night, the Rappahannock School Board offered the assistant principal posts at both county schools to applicants with experience and backgrounds in guidance counseling. Michael Lacika was tendered the position at Rappahannock High School vacated by Bernie Chesshire, who recently took over as principal at the county’s elementary school. Currently a guidance counselor and coach at Poquoson High School in Tidewater, he helped develop and run an alternative education program for that school. He is a graduate of the University of Virginia with a bachelor’s degree in social studies and a master’s degree in counseling and is working towards administrative endorsement from the University of Virginia. The position of assistant elementary school principal was offered to Mary Ann Biggs. A graduate of James Madison University with a master’s in counseling, Mrs. Biggs has also done extensive course work towards administrative endorsement. She has been a guidance counselor at RCHS since 1980 and taught English at the high school for two years. Applicants get hearing Despite no-shows, BZA considers two permits Rappahannock’s Board of Zoning Appeals was short of a quorum last Wednesday, but the scheduled public hearings on two special use permits proceeded as advertised. “It’s unfair to penalize you because of' our problems,” Chairman Lee Bird told Ruth Ann and Richard Simmons, both of whom had taken off work to attend the meeting. “We can get the facts from you” and then act on the application later when the necessary three members are present for a vote, he added. Mr. Simmons explained that he is seeking a special use permit to operate a small engine repair business in an existing accessory building on a half-acre lot on Route 628. The one-story shop “about the size of a two-car garage” meets the ordinance standards for a cottage industry, which is a permitted use in an agricultural zone, and all neighboring landowners have been notified and have registered no objections, Zoning Administrator John McCarthy confirmed. Mr. Simmons explained that he intends to repair “generators, alternators, starters, and such. Nothing is going to be torn down and stored there ... I’d like to 8tart part-time, working nights and Saturdays, and if I get enough business, I can stay up there all day. ” “There doesn’t seem to be any problem with this,” said Chairman Bird, setting a continued meeting for Wednesday, June 29, when at least three BZA members are expected to be able to attend. “I can’t see any reason why you should be pres-ent. It seems very straightforward,” he assured Mr. and Mrs. Simmons. The second applicant, Mary Beth Martin, told the BZA of her plans to operate a one-room bed-and-breakfast in an existing structure on a 12.45-acre parcel coned agricultural on the Foddetstadr Road. ■ ' -"•*" ; ''' ' "■ Mr. McCarthy noted that the septic drainfield and upgraded well meet Health Department standards. ‘We have your facts, and it all looks straightforward,” Mr. Bird said. “We’ll take it up at our meeting next Wednesday.” “That was painless!” Mrs. Martin concluded. Tax rate set at 52^ It is official: for 1988-89, the real estate tax rate in Rappahannock County will be 52 cents per $100 of assessed value. At a special meeting Monday night, the Board of Supervisors adopted the proposed $6,609,961 county budget, set the salaries for employees as specified in that spending plan, and approved the 52-cent real estate rate and a personal property rate of $2.90. In addition, Beverly Massie was reappointed to a four-year term as the School Board member from Jackson District %nd Dorothy Butler was named to the board to represent Piedmont District, replacing Nancy Reeve who had declined to seek another term. At 27, Washington’s Fourth is still going strong There are more elaborate Fourth of July celebrations, like the one down 1-66 in “big” Washington, but there is none with more heart and spirit than that planned for Independence Day in the First Washington. And this year the event will mark a transition, said William Carrigan, sponsor for 26 years of the evening’s patriotic celebration and fireworks. When Mr. Carrigan and his wife Ramona moved to Rappahannock in 1960, they continued the tradition they had begun at their former home on the Chesapeake Bay: fireworks to celebrate Independence Day with their friends and neighbors. As darkness fell and the skyrockets rose, the Carrigans noticed that traffic through Washington came to a standstill as passing motorists stopped to watch the display. They decided that in this close-knit rural county they could no longer keep their celebration private, and invited the entire community to join them. And, in the years since, a generation of Rappahannock County youngsters has grown up observing Independence Day with a picnic dinner and fireworks on the lawn of the Carrigans’ home, Avon Hall. Another tradition has grown up around the Carrigans’ sense of community spirit: the Washington Volunteer Fire Department has taken over sponsorship of the events during the daylight hours, and Independence Day in the First Washington has become the department’s major fundraiser.

Gypsy moth spreads rapidly through county After several years when the infestations of gypsy moth caterpillars seemed limited to the Shenandoah National Park and the area around Chester Gap, the moths have broken out in the county this year. # __ j First in q series Buck Kline, the Virginia Department of Forestry’s area forester for Rappahannock and Madison counties, said the department’s recent aerial survey revealed roughly 15,000 acres affected, or nearly double the 8,000 acres which were defoliated by the caterpillars in 1987. And, he added, unlike past years, the areas affected, within the county have spread beyond the mountainsides of the park. “It’s amazing how fast they move,” he added. In 1987, the aerial survey and ground sweeps tracked the caterpillars’ movements to the Panorama/Thornton Gap area west of Sperryville. This year, the caterpillars have moved as far as the Madison/Rappahannock County line, causing defoliation as far south as Nethers. “Wherever you go, you find egg masses and caterpillars,” the forester said, adding that he saw, from the air, spot defoliation in the Amissville area. Those places, he said, seemed to be ornamental oaks in yards rather than the massive, hillside defoliation seen in the more densely forested areas. Mr. Kline said that the current drought is not helping the situation. Although there’s been no damage to hardwood trees from the lack of rainfall, the defoliation of oaks by the caterpillars, coupled with insufficient moisture and high temperatures over several years, will cause oak mortality, he said. “With each heavy defoliation, we will lose oak timber,” Mr. Kline stated. Various controls available Concerning controls for the voracious caterpillars, Mr. Kline suggested that residents should limit their efforts to shade trees and small wooded tracts near dwellings. For yard trees, burlap bands around the trees provide shade for the caterpillars during the hot daylight hours. They can be easily removed and destroyed. For those homeowners squeamish about the pests, he suggested an adhesive band called ‘Tanglefoot.” The caterpillars crawl onto the band , as they climb up the tree and become 'trapped by the adhesive. The n, the entire band can be removed and discarded. Spraying with Sevin or a comparable pesticide may be effective for _ _ ■ ,r^ _ _ news piMUVUUU nailCI SEEN FROM MASSIE’S CORNER, Fodderstack Mountain shows the extensive defoliation wrought by advancing gypsy moths. small stands of trees, he said, or individual trees in yards. Small oaks can be treated with a household sprayer, and some tree surgeons have power apparatus which will reach the crowns of larger trees. For timber stands, there are companies which offer aerial spraying, although depending on the weather and the severity of the infestation it is of questionable effectiveness. At outbreak levels, however, Mr. Kline said, “spraying is the most effective control.” Dimilin, a pesticide which interferes with the caterpillar’s growth pattern, and Bt, a biological control, are the two chemicals most frequently used for gypsy moth eradication. Bt, Mr. Kline said, is most effective for low-level outbreaks. Dimilin, “a little more toxic but still safe,” is used by the Department of Agriculture and the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services in their spray programs. Mr. Kline stressed, however, that it is important that people recognize that the gypsy moth, like other pests, is subject to periodic peaks and valleys of population. The severe infestations seen during the last several years will not be an annual occurrence. The population will die back after a few years and the defoliation will be much less severe. The most vulnerable oaks are those which are already stressed, he said, whether because The Kezebo Has a new location ^abrtc ♦ > V 203A Southgate Shopping Center (Next to Safeway) Culpeper, Va.

County continues monitoring The county will not take any action toward the infestation this year, County Administrator John McCarthy said this week. “We will continue our monitoring program, and surveys of egg masses.” The Board of Supervisors, Mr. McCarthy said, “made it very clear that our information collection is not to a point yet where we can make informed decisions” about spraying or other control measures. Judging from the “hue and cry” raised by Wakefield and Hampton district landowners over proposals by their neighbors to contract with private aerial spraying companies, Mr. McCarthy added, the county is reluctant to embark on that program without complete information about the outbreak and predictions of future impact. He said that there have been fewer requests for spraying this year than there were last year. And, he pointed out, areas near Chester Gap which were heavily defoliated for the past several years had much less severe outbreaks this spring. “We may have to spray populated areas,” Mr. McCarthy conceded, because of aesthetic considerations, “but this is not an environmental problem.” Next week: Gypsy Moths in the Shenandoah National Park. After several years of heavy defoliation, the park’s naturalists have some reflections on what they’ve done and what should be done.

I want to take care of existing traffic problems,” maintained Hampton District Supervisor Mike Massie as the Rappahannock Planning Commission voted a resolution last Wednesday endorsing the Virginia Department of Transportation’s plans for upgrading Rt. 211 to a dual-lane divided highway between Washington and Sperryville, the construction to begin next summer. Even the new-found opponents of the proposed widening of Rt. 211 have conceded that hills, curves, short sight distances, narrow shoulders, near-blind access from driveways and side roads, and the proximity of two public schools, one private school, and the busy Rappahannnock Farmers Co-op create traffic hazards on the four-mile stretch. But rather than dual-laning, which the highway department estimates will cost at least $13 million, the opponents have suggested more modest improvements, including constructing turning lanes, flattening hills, and widening shoulders. “A band-aid approach” was Commissioner John Clark’s reaction to those suggestions. If the highway department’s engineers would advise that scaled down improvements could make the two-lane road as safe as a divided four-lane and if they would advise that traffic counts are expected to drop, then “I would vote against the dual-laning,” said Mr. Massie, the Board of Supervisors’ representative on the Planning Commission, noting that the number of cars and trucks on the four-mile stretch has increased 45.5 percent since 1974. But opponents of the highway project did win one convert last week. Commissioner Werner Krebser opposed the resolution, saying it’s “utter nonsense” to think the interior dual-laning of four miles won’t spur growth. “If you build highways, you’re going to get development,” maintained the Wakefield District representative. “I could see pushing for it” if the dual-laned stretch “led somewhere,” Dr. Krebser said, adding, however, that the improvements will' only move the bottleneck up four miles to the village of Sperryville where the four-lane is to narrow again to a twolane. As to the steadily increasing traffic on the stretch, said to be the most heavily traveled portion of .road in RapgH&Al&Mtigk., he Ihsist&cT! (hat W Ju Ur Ur Ur Ur U Ur Ur transportation systems are going -to change with the worsening problen| of air pollution. “People won’t Ije able to continuously depend on the automobile.” Also ultimately affecting traffic patterns, developers won’t be able to continue to cut up land “because we’re going to need the land to feed people,” Dr. Krebser said. At the Planning Commission’s session last week, probably the last forum on the road project before the Department of Transportation’s scheduled local meetings on July 20 and 21, critics repeated arguments voiced at other hearings. Bill SenKewitz contended that parallel-laning will actually make the road less safe because vehicles wiH‘ cross the median strip and run heacb. on into approaching traffic. “Fourlaning will disrupt the whole comma<. nity. Change our way of life and everything.” Bill Hiers called on the Planning' Commission to designate a special., truck route, reporting that 44 tractor-trailers passed his residence drt* Rt. 211 at the Covington River in just one morning. “If you don’t, somebody’s going to get killed," he - warned. (Only the Virginia Department of Transportation may restrict traffic on state roads, and that agency last year denied the Board of Supervisors’ petition to close Rt. 522 to the big trucks which are taking the nar-’. row and winding road over the. mountain at Chester Gap since the department imposed a tractor-' trailer ban on Rt. 17 between Marshall and Warrenton in Fauquier County.) Robin Purnell called the parallel-; laning, first approved in 1960, an - “obsolete plan ... an old, old plan.” Shenandoah National Park’s refusal to allow the road to be widened through its territory means that the original intent of dual-laning from , Washington, D.C., to Luray to connect with Interstate 81 “can ne. longer be fulfilled,” she added. “I’d like to see money put into making.■< the road safer, but not four-laning. ’’ “Is there no official body in the county responsible for collecting in- ■* formation, and not leave it to the citizens” to gather data on such issues . as “whether or not dual-laning is a./ safer way to go?" inquired Peter White.

Published by Arundel Newspapers Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation. THURSDAY. JUNE 30.1988 Editorial Buckle up! This week is National Seatbelt Week. Beginning Jan. 1, the use of seat belts by front seat passengers became the law in Virginia. Since State Police reports indicate that highway deaths so far this year are down compared to the same period last year, apparently the law is saving lives. What is distressing, however, is the accident reports which indicate that people involved in crashes are not wearing belts. We can’t help but wonder how many of those injuries would have been lessened, or even prevented, if seat belts had been worn. Although Virginia’s law provides for a fine if motorists are discovered unbuckled, unfortunately the vehicle must have been stopped for another offense before a ticket can be issued for non-use of belts. That’s something which the legislature should address, changing the law to allow tickets for failure to buckle up, without another offense being involved. < The same tired argument is sure to be advanced by those who feel the seatbelt law is an invasion of the government into private lives: That the government has no business policing such activities. To that we can only say, “Hogwash!” That argument is valid only as long as other people’s lives are not involved. In some cases, seatbelts allow the drived to stay in cohtrol of his vehicle after a collision, when an unbelted operator might be > bounced around and lose control. That means other motorists and pedestrians might be spared involvement in an accident. And, the insurance payments made to cover the costs of injuries caused or aggravated because the occupants were not belted are covered by an increase ineveryone’s premiums, not just those involved in the crashes. The law becomes even more important as the state raises the speed limit on rural interstates to 65 mph beginning tomorrow. With higher speeds come more serious accidents, causing graver injuries. Seatbelt use will minimize the inevitable increase in injuries and deaths which will accompany increased speeds. Seatbelts, in fact, do save lives. We urge our readers to • observe National Seatbelt Week not just this week, but every day of every year. New laws in effect July 1 State Police reminded Virginia residents of several laws passed by the General Assembly in 1988 which go into effect July 1. The law which increases the speed limit on rural interstates also increases the amount of damage necessary (from $500 to $750) before police are required to file accident reports with DMV. A study will be conducted during the next five years on the speed of each vehicle in a collision, the types of vehicles involved, and whether trucks involved in crashes are covered. As a result of the study, speed limits may be reduced in areas of frequent collisions. The part of this bill that requires covered trucks does not go into effect until Oct. 1. Speeders who avoid summonses with radar detectors (which are illegal in Virginia) are no longer safe from being caught, a spokesman said. On July 1, State Police are authorized to begin using a new mechanical timing device, VASCAR, which uses a microcomputer to calculate the speed of a vehicle by the time and distance it has traveled. The device operates without transmitting radio frequencies, and is effective whether the patrol car is parked or travelling in the same or opposite direction of a speeder. Beginning July 1, the penalty for disregarding a signal to stop by a police officer is raised from a Class 2 to a Class 1 misdemeanor. The penalty can include loss of driver’s license for up to a year, up to a $1,000 fine and up to 12 months in jail. State Police remind motorists that it is illegal to have sunshading, stickers, signs or decals in the windshield or the front side windows to the left and right of the driver. Stickers or decals are allowed on the rear side windows and rear window if the car has a right and left side view mirror. One sticker on the rear window is allowed in any case, so long as it is not larger than 20 square inches in area and is completely contained within the lower five inches of the glass. The General Assembly has also designated the Virginia State Police as the central respository for records reporting terrorist acts beginnin July 1. The State Police developed the reporting form, which will be required of all law enforcement agencies. An illegal act is considered terrorist when it intimidates or instills fear because of race, religion or national origin. Laws regarding weapons which go into effect July 1 include one which prohibits possession of a firearm on public school property. A new law makes it a misdemeanor to sell or give a firearm to a convicted felon, and an amendment to another law adds a ballistic knife to the list of illegal concealed weapons. A ballistic knife, or any knife with a detachable blade propelled by a spring-operated mechanism, is illegal if concealed. Weapons modified to become machine guns are required to be registered within 24 hours of modification. It will be a felony for any person to buy or receive a firearm from another person or to aid in concealing a firearm knowing that the firearm was stolen. Beginning with the 1988 taxable year, individuals who receive crime solver rewards may deduct up to $1,000 of the reward from their Virginia taxable income Commentary Rappahannock Heritage SUMMER’S HOT SUN brings forth a profusion of wildflowers. Rappahannock News photo/Cindy Mahan Mood, mystery and fantasy at Middle St. By JAMES W. THOMASSON Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Editor’s note: This review was scheduled to run in the newspaper's June 23 issue. However, because of transmission difficulties, the copy was not included in last week’s paper. We apologize for the delay, but felt that the review is still of interest. Technique - the studied, practiced, steady and controlled use of color, shape and mood - is the lesson well taught by Lynnette Nicholas and J. Scott Robinson in their joint showing at Middle St. Gallery. In the most positive use of the term, here are two fine technicians, whose style and method are clearly at the disposal of their aesthetic vision. And yet, how markedly different they are - at least at first glance. Lynette’s delicate touches of color and texture create within the viewer a sense of the lyrical, mystical quality of the natural landscape, whether in the eruption of purple “evergreens,” fired red by the white-hot sun ascending in her “Indigo Sunrise,” or in those gentle stars that float above the treetops in the “Full Moon” print sequence, more like dew drops or sparkles of dust from some fairy’s wand. I had heard of those very stars before in Archibald MacLeish’s classic play J.B.: “Water under bridges opens, closing, and the companion stars still float there afterward...” Still, there is an uneasiness, approaching foreboding, in these paintings. The handbill for the show fronts her work as “watercolor light transitions/landscapes.” They are that. Yet, these landscapes, with their balanced composition and texture, betray the artist’s sense of uncertainty and anxiety in the very transitions of light and color that identify her work. That same sun from “Indigo Sunrise” now peers through more subdued tones of muted orange and ochre in “Early Morning.” But there is the premonition of the day’s relentless heat. Stark trunks and limbs surge outward and upward to escape, leaving their leaves behind. In “Rainbow Visions” the rain bow of color lies not above the landscape, but is diffused in splashes of color, charged leaves that are suspended about tall, slender trees, as if caught in a force field. The overpowering use of yellow no longer threatens to consume us. By “Pastel Sunset” that menacing sun is defused, and the day settles into a warm glow of calm and contentment. Like the raging sun in Nietzsche’s “Thus Spoke Zarathustra,” Lynnette’s sun “goes under.” As you stand in the middle of the gallery, trying to take in all her works at once, you know her sun is replenishing itself; in nature’s endless cycle it will return. In the midst of this reverie and mystery the viewer is stunned by two paintings that violate the established mood. In “Julia’s Wish ... To Fly” the usual patterning of the landscape into socialized rectangularly is shattered by a Jungian flight of archetypal fancy. From the artist’s inner world comes a different landscape - a whirlwind collage of primal symbols of consciousness, the primal fire wisping upward to join the hair of the visionary oracle, the lion of alienation, the Indian drumskin with its four forces of the cosmos, and the eagle soaring into the house of the moon (or is it the sun?), a silhouetted reminder of the eternal tension of light and darkness. What is this about? From across the room comes the hint of an answer: “Burst of Sunshine After Rain.” What burst? This landscape — dark and sombre greens, only freckled with yellow, gold and orange - is dominated by the primeval forest, imprisoned by ground mist and sky haze. The consummate effect of these “transitions” of light is to suggest a struggle within the artist herself to understand how the external, natural landscape can ever be the expression of the longing of the human unconsciousness to “make of chaos something still.” Enter Scott Robinson, delivered to this reviewer by the half-knowing exclamations of a gallery “regular”: “Scott’s a real character! Where does the impulse come from?” Well, if those volcanic personalities who ruptured our understanding of the real - Cezanne, Matisse, Gauguin and the like - are correct, color is the language to express artistic sentiment and aesthetic judgment. It is the primary language through which Scott speaks of his perception of reality. A glance about the room tells you that Scott has an expansive, but efficient vocabulary. When the simplicity of subject requires it, he will speak to you in primary colors, as in “Let the Gypsy Lady Step Forward” and “Petunias.” Then, he will draw you playfully into the cartoon hues of “’Neath the Moon,” “Seven Alumettes, and Tipster.” Finally, he will remind you that the real power of language lies in metaphor and symbol, when color and form conspire to express mood and meaning. In “Birdhouses of Luray, No. 1,” “Pearls,” and “Summer Vertigo” he gives us a kind of quilt sampler for a color and design seminar. His pearl onions in graphic design (“Pearls”) are “museum quality,” a fantastic play of light and dark across a field of rectangular and orbital geometric shapes. This is true technique, a conspiracy of craft and vision. In “Summer Vertigo” the viewer steps into the garden of Eliot’s “Four Quartets”: the green hose, like a lithe ribbon snake, guides us past the toppled birdbath and on to the water splash beneath the spigot, but that splash seems more a sepulchre than a receptacle for spillage. Or is that the same thing? At last one sees that this drama unfolds on an ill-kept lawn that is slowly falling out of the lower comer of the earth. Those “Birdhouses in Luray" extend forth from the tottering earth, reaching out into wispy, cancerous clouds like NASA devices searching for life that can sustain itself into the future. This symbolic word play finally carries the eye to “Fresh Bankers,” where the patterned Egyptian tortoise and Matissesque fish are joined by a green fibrous bird-man, all fair game on the serving tray of existence. Then comes “Drive Thru,” a concluding quandary placed before us from Scott’s imagination. Here h« speaks in tongues, a panoply of his colors and shapes telling a story that no one wants to hear. In the background stands the archetypical American town, its onestory homes dad in brick and whitealuminum siding, like a USIA* poster. But all that bedrock morality and melting pot simplicity is threatened by a menacing compressed gas' tank that dominates the foreground and aims to capture the entire painting. That steel gray cylinder is a con-> fused and confusing symbol. It looms with a destiny, like a guided missilS with a conscience. That primary red meter cap, an ominous silo button^ seems at the same time an inflamed navel on some foreign body sent td destroy us. '<> Between the viewer and the instrument of doom stands a vibrant yellow protective pole, its benV curve nuclear shadow resting uneas1-! ily against the tank. That pole protects the tank from us; ironically, Scott speaks of no pole that can pro-, tect us from the death wish that pilots that steel messenger. -;y For this viewer the expression^ of Scott Robinson and Lynnettq Nicholas, despite their differences of style and tone, converge at this point. Both seem pressed to the reali ization that the meaning and value of human existence are not found in thq hazy landscapes of human perception, nor in the instruments of power that can destroy their own creators, In their hands the creative process’ turns back to search in the artists’" inner self for clues to the mystery of ! being. In the process we are invite'd" along for the journey to the world of, mood, mystery and fantasy. •_*£ To the reader I extend their invj^ tation. j!

FRENCH SLAUGHTER JR. Rappahannock Nm Contributing Writer Leaders from six industrialized democracies recently met with President Reagan in Toronto, Canada, for the 14th annual world economic summit. During this three-day summit between Western economic superpowers, leaders from the United States, Canada, Britain, West Germany, France, Italy and Japan discussed a wide variety of political and economic issues, including EastWest relations, international terrorism, and the possibility of setting up an international task force to curtail drug abuse. Also discussed during the summit was the remarkable economic recovery of the United States, particularly the current economic expansion of the country, which is now in its 67th consecutive month, outlasting all previous peacetime expansions in U.S. history. Fifteen million new jobs have been created since this economic expansion began in 1982, and unemployment has fallen six percentage points to the lowest level in nearly a decade. In addition, the raging inflation of the late 1970s has been restrained at the current level of 3.9 percent, and the prime rate, which was 21.5 percent in 1980, is now 9 percent. As we noted during the world economic summit, President Reagan is certainly to be commended for his successful efforts in guiding our country on a path of economic growth and security.

Op-Ed Reform, don't abolish, the Electoral College By EUGENE MCCARTHY Rappahannock Newt Contributing Writer After prolonged debate, the Constitutional Convention of 1787 finally approved the principle of electing the President by a body created specifically for that purpose, namely, the Electoral College. In the first presidential election, some electors were appointed by state legislatures. A few states, including Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia, provided for popular election of the electors. By 1796, the first election after Washington’s two terms, electors were chosen by the people in six states and by legislatures in 10 states. By that time, within eight years after the adoption of the Constitution, partisanship had reached a point at which, in every one of the 16 states then a part of the Union, electors were picked as men pledged to one candidate or the other: John Adams or Thomas Jefferson. The Electoral College as conceived by the Founding Fathers — a body of responsible, trusted persons — was hardly tested. As partisan politics has become more dominant, the independent role of the Electoral College has been all but forgotten and electors vote automatically for the party candidate to whom they are committed. Because of the development of partisan politics, and for other reasons, the original conception of how the Electoral College was intended to work has been confused and neglected. A popular opinion has developed that the Electoral College is either a bad idea or one that is unworkable. It is neither. The trouble is that it has not been used as it was intended. The original conception was that electors would be chosen for one task only, a very important one in the new republic: the selection of a President of the United States. As electors they were to be agents of the people of their states. It was anticipated that the electors would be wise and responsible, that they would be more free of involvement with politics and legislative matters because they were not members of Congress. The Electoral College, as it was called, was designed to deny both Congress and the voters total and direct power over the election. Whereas the Founding Fathers knew what political factions were — division being the mark of every political society — they hoped and believed that these divisive and power-seeking organizations would have a limited influence in the choice of members of Congress and especially of the President. The states could by individual and separate actions restore the electoral process to what it was intended to be. They are unlikely to do so, any more than they had moved to extend the vote to women or to persons between the ages of 18 and 21 before Constitutional amendments accomplishing those purposes were adopted. Maine is the only state that has moved, even modestly, to conform to the Constitutional intent. The Maine system, by which one electoral vote goes to the winner of the popular vote in each congressional district and two electoral votes go to the winner of the state-wide popular vote, is clearly better than the winner-take-all rule applied in the other 49 states. Better than the Maine district system would be one dividing the states into presidential electoral districts, each smaller than a congressional district, which now includes about 450.000 persons. If each presidential elector represented, say, a district of 100,000 persons, a candidate for the Electoral College could campaign effectively without spending great sums of money for campaign activities. One person with a few volunteers could, in the course of a presidential campaign, reach all voters in his 100,000-person constituency. If the country were divided into some 2.000 districts, 2,000 presidential electors would be chosen. Obviously, if a majority of those chosen were Democrats, a Democratic President would be chosen; if a majority were Republicans, a Republican would be President. If neither party had a majority, the third- or fourth-party electors would hold the balance of power and their votes would have to be solicited by other parties. * This procedure is no different from the one followed within U.S. political parties at their conventions (or on the way to conventions). The voters of Great Britain employ a similar procedure in the selection of a Prime Minister under the parliamentary system. A President chosen through this process would clearly be a Constitutional President, and he would be chosen by electors who represented a majority, if not of the voters, almost certainly of the citizens. We should follow the advice of John Holcombe, who in the early years of this century argued that “in no reactionary spirit, therefore, but with views thoroughly progressive,” we should “return for relief to the wisdom of the fathers by making effective their admirable device — the Electoral College.” The need for purifying and perfecting the process of the selection of the President is most important at this time, because of the complexity and weight of the demands of the presidential office — and because voter knowledge of the qualifications of the presidential candidates is obscured or distorted with the intrusion of media hype. Yet it is better to improve the representative process, than to propose that it should be done away with because the representative process has not worked in the Electoral College. Sen. McCarthy is a resident of Woodville, and a former Democratic Senator from Minnesota. He is mounting an independent campaign for the Presidency this year— his fourth try for the office. New Market holds folk craft show At least 10 artisans will demonstrate old-fashioned crafts at this year’s expanded 19th Century Folk Craft Day Sunday, July 3, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the New Market Battlefield Park has announced.

Sen. Trible said, “The growth and staying power of the drug trade have frustrated the nations of this hemisphere. For too long, governments have viewed the drug war as one to be fought on someone else’s soil. “North Americans routinely blame their neighbors to the South for the seemingly endless supply of drugs that washes over our shores. South Americans in turn blame the United States for being unwilling or unable to dampen the demand for narcotics. The hemisphere simply cannot afford that kind of fingerpointing any longer.” Sen. Trible’s resolution is a major step toward devising a more concerted approach to combatting drugs in the hemisphere. It makes clear that illicit drugs are among the most serious threats we face. It calls for cooperation at the highest levels of government, including heads of state, on fighting drugs. “Clearly, the nations of the Western Hemisphere are suffering together. “Combatting the drug lords together will strengthen the bond among nations of this hemisphere. As we succeed together, we shall strengthen our alliance. The drug summit is a good palce to start,” Sen. Trible said. *No Down Payment* Loveseat Size Sleep Sofa, Converts into a Single Bed, Herculon Cover, Now Only $284. Traditional Styling on this 3 Piece Living Room Suite. Brown Tweed Herculon Covers.

Mountain Store plans festival for the Fourth The Mountain Store in Criglersville will host a Hot and Spicy Festival this Fourth of July weekend in celebration of its fourth year. The Mountain Store is located in the old McCallister Mercantile store building, which for many years was the post office and community center for the area. Local residents, most of whom lived up in the mountains, brought rabbits and turkeys to the store in exchange for wooden tokens, that were later used to purchase clothing, groceries and farming supplies. Priscilla McDaniel, who now manages the store, is a descendant of these people and tells interesting stories to visitors from nearby Graves Mountain Lodge. This weekend the Mountain Store is featuring a tasting of some of the local products from nearby Culpeper County. The Boston, Va., company, run by Greaner Neal, will have a big stoneware cooler full of their special Spiced Fruit Tea, which they recommend as a thirst quencher for a hot summer w eekend barbecue. For corn on the cob, they make a savory and marjoram butter blend that visitors can sample. Mr. Neal also makes a dill and oregano blend which he recommends with a country potato salad. For those who like tossed salads, he makes a great selection of herbal vinegars, including basil and garlic, and French tarragon. All of these accompaniments will be available, as well as copies of Mr. Neal’s popular recipes for Fancy Green Beans, Easy Dill & Garlic Bread, and Savory Chicken. The Mountain Store will also have its traditional door prize contest with a U.S. flag kit as the grand prize. A Fourth of July coloring contest is in progress, with prizes for all age groups.

Sensitivity overlooked By JOHN BORGENS Rappahannock New* Staff Writer How many times do we find ourselves feeling sad or blue? Most of the time the feeling passes, but sometimes, for some people, the feeling stays for a long time. A young client of mine often wrote poetry when struggling with these feelings of deep sadness. A couple of the lines from one poem read: “Why is it that those who care, don’t care about me? I look at what I’m not, not what I could be.” Those two lines say a great deal about the emotional state of that young individual. First, there’s the intense feeling that no one cares about her—or even more importantly, the feeling that those who should care, parents and other loved ones, do not. Feelings like this can be devastating. It’s not important whether the person is right or wrong in feeling that way—only that he does have the feeling. These lines of poetry also point out the need for all of us to be sensitive to those around us. It’s important to be perceptive and caring enough to reach out when someone is in need—to let him know we care. Often this means simply taking the time to listen or to do something the other person needs rather than focusing on our own concerns. Sometimes, however, we get so preoccupied with our own job, chores, garden or whatever that we don’t really take the time to see the needs of those around us. The second thought voiced by that young person is also important to keep in mind. If we look at a glass and see it as half empty, it’s much more discouraging than looking at it and seeing it half full. How emotionally difficult it is if we look at ourselves and focus only • on our imperfections and faults. Yet - how often do we see this happen? :! We help others grow, especially; children, by looking at their poten- • tial. If we help them realize what' they are capable of becoming, we help them strive to reach their potential. By looking at the positive, and . being sensitive and caring to those around us, we help to make life a little more enjoyable for ourselves and for those we care about as well.

C., has been named to the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics All-American baseball squad. As the Patriots’ starting rightfielder, Porter won an honorable mention nomination to the All-American team. During the 1988 season, Porter set a school record for base hits in a year with 86 while leading the team in hitting with a .430 average. He slugged nine home runs, drove in 54 runs and stole 15 bases in 22 attempts. He also paced the team in runs scored (61) and contributed eight game-winning RBIs. His efforts led Francis Marion to its first district baseball title in 12 years, as the squad compiled its ‘ best-ever season record, 35-13. By falling to Georgetown (Ky.) College in the Area 7 championship in a heartbreaking 13-12 loss, the Patriots missed their first trip to the NAIA World Series by one step. Porter is the son of Jackie Porter ’ of Sperryville.

Beat the heat with kabobs By SANDRA RICHARDSON Extension Agent. Home Economics The Fourth of July is right around the comer. It’s time to get out the grill and set up the picnic table for the mid-summer holiday weekend. For a creative change of pace that will allow you to enjoy your company, try an outdoor kabob meal. Pre-preparation is the key to an enjoyable culinary experience for you and your guests. Kabobs can be assembled ahead or ingredients set out so that everyone can be their own chef. Chunks of beef, seafood, pork, poultry, or lamb team well with fresh vegetables or fruits. Or the meat can be grilled or broiled alone. The most important thing with any type of kabobs is to have cubes of meat that are the same size for even cooking. Kabobs will cook more evenly if there is breathing space between pieces. When using marinades a rule of thumb for soaking times - fish, seafood, or chicken need to be chilled for 2-4 hours; beef, pork or lamb need to chill for 6 hours or overnight. All need to be turned from time to time. Be sure to save the marinade to brush over the kabobs as they cook. The fruits and vegetables need no precooking. You can use apple wedges, 1-inch papaya pieces, orange slices, 1-inch fresh pineapple pieces,, 1-inch green or red pepper pieces, pea pods, and frozen artichoke hearts. For best results pre-cook these things: 1/2 inch slices of summer squash, broccoli or cauliflower flowerettes and baby scallopini squash for one to two minutes; baby carrots, 1-inch pieces of green onion or leek for four to five minutes; 1-inch pieces of fresh corn on the cob for 6-8 minutes; halved tiny new potatoes for 12-15 minutes. Cherry tomatoes cook fast. Put them on the skewer for the last two minutes of cooking. Skewers used for grilling can be wooden and disposable or metal. A couple of points worth mentioning: wooden skewers need to be soaked in water ahead of time to prevent them from burning; metal skewers tend to get hot, so proceed with caution. When choosing beef for outdoor grilling or indoor broiling, remember that these dry heat methods require meat that is tender or has been tenderized. Tenderizing may be done by using a commerial tenderizer, a marinade or pounding the meat to break down the connective tissue for less tender cuts of beef. For example, round or chuck cubes are excellent when marinated in an herb or bourbon and brown sugar marinade: The beef can be served on skewers with crunchy slices of fresh zucchini, onions or cherry tomatoes. Serving such foods on a skewer is not only less time-consuming for the cook but also easier to handle for outdoor guests.

Broil or grill about 4 to 5 minutes, until cooked to taste; turn once or twice to brown evenly. Mix pineapple juice slowly into cornstarch. Add marinade; cook, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens. Serve with kabobs. Yield: enough for 6 to 8 skewers. Pork has been found on outdoor menus for a long time but not in the form of a shishkabob. Pork loin, chops, steaks, hams, smoked pork picnics or butt are all cuts that can be cubed and put on a skewer. For a quick, easy marinade for pork cubes, use bottled Italian salad dressing and marinate overnight. Fresh peach puree combined with honey, soy sauce and cloves makes an excellent marinade for ham cubes. The ham could then be alternated on a skewer with fresh peaches and green peppers. Pork Kabobs Wz pounds boneless pork loin, cut in lVz inch cubes 1/2 cup chutney 1/2 cup catsup 2 tablespoons salad oil 1 tablespoon soy sauce 1 tablespoon lemon juice 4 drops tabasco In blender, combine chutney, catsup, oil, soy sauce, lemon juice and tabasco.

Serve with Vegetables On A Skewer. Makes 4 serv- /, ings. Tender cuts of lamb can be used for grilling or if the cookout goes indoors, the lamb can be broiled. The shoulder, leg, loin, and shoulder or loin chops can be cut into cubes and then grilled. For a zesty taste try marinating lamb overnight in an oil, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, celery salt and garlic powder marinade.

Basketball coach Gary Leake has been anxious for the completion of the new facility, and next month he’s arranged for its baptism. The Shot Doctor, former University of North Carolina star Ed Stahl, will bring his travelling basketball camp to RCHS for two three-day sessions. With him comes University of Southern California assistant coach Mike Dunlop. A former University of Iowa player himself, on the off-season he’s the Doctor’s assistant. Coach Leake has arranged for the two sessions to be split into age groups to allow the participants to work with others of similar age and skill level. The first session, July 25, 26 and 27, will be for players ages 13-18. Then, younger players from 9-13 will get a chance to work with the Doctor on July 28,29 and 30. The 13-year-olds, Coach Leake said, can play with either group, depending on their ability and confidence. The camps, he added, are coed. The camp is open to any youngsters, and Coach Leake said he’s already heard from several Culpeper County players who want to attend. The workouts begin at 8:30 each morning, and run until 5:30 p.m. Each participant is responsible for their own transportation and a bag lunch. The cost is $89 for the three days, which includes a camp T-shirt. Each session is limited to 52 players. Coach Leake plans a registration session at the high school on Thursday, June 14 at 6 p.m. in the front Rappahannock News photo/Lou Hatter UNABLE TO WAIT for basketball season, Rappahannock High’s basketball coach Gary Leake and student Joseph Rooker try out the new gymnasium with a game of one-on-one last week. lobby. At that time players must pay at least a $35 deposit to secure a spot at the camp. “I’m really excited about this,” Coach Leake said. “It’s the first time a camp like this has been offered in the county.” It has the possibility, he added, of becoming a yearly event, and, if interest warrants, might be the catalyst for summer league basketball in the county. The coach said he is particularly glad that the camp will include an opportunity for younger players to gain some experience and work with experts. “Our kids come to the eighth grade league with little or no experience. Unlike other schools, we can’t afford the extra programs. This will give them a chance to get involved.” And, he added, if it evolves into summer leagues for younger players, “it will give them an alternative sports program, and give them experience with the basics before they reach the eighth grade league.” Staffing the camp with “Dr.” Stahl and Mr. Dunlop will be several local college players, Coach Leake said. He will be the camp’s administrative director, with the assistance of Coach Renee Spitler. For information about The Shot Doctor basketball camp, call the high school (987-8575). If Coach Leake is not available, he said, leave a message and he will return the call. Applications for the camp will be available at registration on July 14. Kabobs (Continued from Page 10) broiler pan; place broiler pan 9 to 10 inches from source of heat. Broil, turning and basting with reserved marinade frequently, until lamb is cooked to desired doneness. Pour remaining marinade into small, heavy saucepan; simmer until thick. This makes a teriyaki sauce to serve with kebabs and rice. Yield: about 6 servings. For a pleasant change of pace try the delectable taste of seafood on a skewer. Fresh or frozen seafood can be used. Trout, scallops, shark, halibut, and oysters are just a few types of seafood whose flavors are enhanced by grilling. Grapefruit wedges, yellow squash, or snow peas team up well with seafood. Here are some other suggestions for seafood kebabs. Scallop Kebabs 8 pearl white cooking onions 8 large mushrooms 1/2 green pepper, cut into 1-inch squares 1 lb. scallops 8 cherry tomatoes 1/4 cup melted margarine 2tsp. lemon juice 1/4 tsp. fines herbes - pick your favorite 1 clove garlic, minced 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper Salt and pepper to taste Peel onions and cut an X at one end. Bring a medium pot of water to boil and cook mushrooms, onions and pepper squares until almost tender, about 5 minutes. Arrange scallops, onions, mushrooms, pepper squares and tomatoes on 4 long skewers. Lay skewers on heavy foil. Combine margarine, lemon juice, herbs, garlic, cayenne, salt and pepper. Brush skewers and chill until ready to cook. Heat barbecue grill and lay foil with skewers on grill. Turn grill to low, cover and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes. Turn over, brush with rest of margarine mixture and cook another 3 to 4 minutes. Don’t overcook. Those scallops don’t take very long. You can do the same thing with peeled, deveined shrimp. Serves 4. Fish Teriyaki Kebabs 2 lb. thick fish fillets 1 (16-oz.) can pineapple chunks 1/3 cup reserved pineapple juice 1/2 cup soy sauce 2 T. brown sugar 1 tsp. ground ginger 1 tsp. dry mustard 1 clove garlic, crushed 1 green pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces Cut fish into 1-inch cubes. Drain pineapple, reserve 1/3 cup of liquid. Combine pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, mustard and garlic. Pour marinade over fish; cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Drain fish and reserve marinade. Thread fish, pineapple chunks and green peppers alternately on skewers. Cook over hot coals 4 to 5 minutes. Baste with marinade. Turn and cook 4 to 5 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Poultry, grilled in quarters or halves, would also be excellent as kabobs. Chicken cubes can be teamed with parboiled sweet poatoes, orange wedges, green pepper and then marinated in ginger, honey, soy sauce, orange juice, and vegetable oil. If using peeled sweet potatoes, hold in ice water to prevent browning before cooking. The cooking time for these kabobs is only 5 minutes. Chicken-Rock-Lobster Kabobs 6 skinless and boneless chickenbreast halves 6 (4-ounce each) frozen South African rock-lobster tails 1 small navel orange, cut into 6 wedges Salt and pepper 1 cup peach preserves 1/3 cup chopped chutney 1 tablespoon soy sauce 1 tablespoon wine vinegar Cut each chicken breast into 4 pieces. With sharp knife cut each rocklobster tail crosswise through shell into 4 pieces. Alternately spear chicken pieces, rock-lobster slices, and orange wedges on heatproof skewers. Sprinkle kabobs on all sides with salt and pepper. Mix remaining ingredients in bowk stir until well blended. Place kabobs 6 inches above gray coals; grill 5 minutes. Brush with sauce; turn. Grill 2 minutes. Serve kabobs garnished with chopped scallions and pineapple slices, grilled over coals on square of foil after Crushing with sauce. Heat remaining sauce; spoon over kabobs or serve as a dip. Yield: 6 servings. Not only can meats be marinated and then grilled alone but vegetables can be too. Brussels sprouts, mushrooms, asparagus, and tomatoes are just a few vegetables that are great on a skewer. Vegetables on a Skewer 2 medium tomatoes, quartered 1 green pepper, cut in eighths 8 mushrooms 8 small onions, cooked ■, 2 tablespoons butter, melted Arrange vegetables alternately on skewers. Brush with melted butter. Grill over medium coals about 7 minutes, turning once and brushing with melted butter. Season with salt and pepper. Makes 4 servings. Vegetable Kabobs with Seasoned Butter Sauce 2 medium zucchini 12 cherry tomatoes 6 pounds fresh mushrooms 1/2 cup melted butter 1 tablespoon parsley flakes 3/4 teaspoon onion powder 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon pepper Cut off ends of zucchini; cut each zucchini into 6 slices. Arrange tomatoes, zucchini and mushrooms on 6 skewers. Pour butter into small bowl. Add parsley flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper; mix well. Brush over kabobs. Place on grill over hot coals. Cook about 10 minutes, until vegetables are tender. Resolution (Continued from Page 3) whether the opinion of the county’s citizenry is known. If public opinion is relevant to proceeding with the proposed construction, “why doesn’t an official body go out and poll the people instead of leaving it up to the citizens to come up with their own petitions?” Mr. White asked, adding that the county “might want to hire a consultant” to study the pros and cons of the highway project. “Is it good? Is it bad? Who the hell knows? Seventeen million dollars is being thrown up in the air and we’re ready to grab it,” Mr. White said, calling for “some kind of cost/benefit analysis” on the parallel-laning. John Cadwalader, a leader of the Friends of Old Route 211, asked if the Planning Commissioners knew of any plans for commercial development which would be contingent upon four-laning the road. Chairman A. Y. Stokes said he was aware of no such pending applications, but he pointed out that the county’s comprehensive plan designates the commercially-zoned Flatwoods area between B & B Service Center and the Co-op, on both sides of the highway, for future commercial development. The rest of the four-mile stretch, from the Covington River to the village of Sperryville, is zoned agricultural, Mr. Stokes acknowledged. Mr. Cadwalader said he hoped the proposed widening of Rt. 211 doesn’t become a “newcomer versus old timer” issue. 4, “Do you think the four-laning of Rt. 211 from Amissville to Washington ruined the beauty of the county?” asked Commissioner David Fannon. Mr. Cadwalader answered that the project was “a waste of money” because the highway serves “so little traffic.” “Did you drive it before it was dual-laned?” asked Mr. Fannon, determining that Mr. Cadwalader had traveled the old road in 1964. “Was it safer in 1964 than it is now?” he inquired, getting forcible nods of disagreement from the other Planning Commissioners who are long-time residents of the county. “I can tell you it wasn’t. We had terrible accidents then,” added the Jackson District representative. “Accidents can happen whether you have four lanes or two lanes or however many lanes you want,” countered Mr. Cadwalader. “You’re never going to convince me that a dual lane highway is going to destroy the beauty of Rappahannock County or that two lanes are safer than a divided four-lane highway,” Commissioner Fannon replied. “Of course not, because you’re narrow minded,” interjected Mr. SenKewitz. Dual-laning will make a “race track” of the four miles between Washington and Sperryville, maintained Mr. Hiers. “A lot of people are going to wind up being dead,” Commissioner Clark noted that speed limits, passing zones, and other features contributing to safety are set by the highway department on the basis of established and objective criteria. Col. E. P. Luke, former chairman of the Board of Supervisors, recalled that the board has publicly supported the project since at least 1974 and that the five-county Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District Commission has likewise unanimously endorsed the dual-laning between Washington and Sperryville. He also noted that the final allocation of funds for the work by the Virginia Transportation Commission came only after public hearings held throughout the state both this year and last. “They discussed this thing in detail . . . This road is part of the U.S. arterial highway system and has been on the books since 1960.” As to the contention that the dual-laning will only move the safety hazards down four miles to a bottleneck where the road narrows again, “it might be that we’ll have to bypass Sperryville, but the highway department has the data for that,” Col. Luke said, adding that engineering work and plans for a bypass of the village were done in 1960. Research such as Mr. White wants is something “this county can’t handle,” said Col. Luke. Studies can’t focus just on Rappahannock but must take into account development and the concurrent traffic being generated in the more rapidly growing adjoining localities, he said. “There’s a fire burning around the edges of Rappahannock County and it jumps over the line every once in a while.” He reported that Sperryville now has 60 businesses located between Piney Run and the Swindlers’ Country Manor Gift Shop at Shenandoah National Park’s edge. “Those businesses attract people.” In addition, Col. Luke noted that $450,000 has already been spent just on “pre-engineering” for the highway project which has been recommended by the Transportation Commission and approved by Gov. Gerald Baliles. John McCarthy, zoning administrator and administrative assistant to the Board of Supervisors, maintained that the current two-lane road between Washington and Sperryville is “intolerable from a safety standpoint.” He conceded that more modest improvements could correct the safety hazards for less than the $17 million estimate for parallel-laning but added the work would still cost “millions of dollars.” And the highway between Washington and Sperryville would still have to be upgraded to four divided lanes in five or 10 years, just to handle increased traffic, Mr. McCarthy maintained. In 1981, daily traffic reached 4,500 vehicles, the level for qualifying for federal funds for duallaning, he reported. The count climbed 20 percent by 1987 and highway officials expect 1988 statistics to show yet another increase, the zoning administrator added. Describing those fighting the highway project as people “generally supportive of planning and zoning,” Mr. McCarthy said he doesn’t understand the opposition to duallaning four miles of interior highway to correct safety hazards. “I don’t see how it’s speculative. I don’t see how it’s developmentally oriented. I don’t see how it is anything other than a reasonable response to a problem we have right now.” And by a five-one margin, with Dr. Krebser opposed, the Planning Commission approved the resolution and directed it be presented to the Virginia Department of Transportation before the July 20 and 21 hearings at Rappahannock County Elementary School.

Fourth (Continued from Page 1) This year, as Mr. Carrigan turns over the reins of the evening’s program to a group of town volunteers, and the fire department’s festival continues, the event should be better than ever, say the organizers. A coalition of the fire department, the Washington Town Council, the Washington Business Council and the Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community has assumed joint sponsorship of the day’s activities. “From this point forward, we’ll be trying to make this a cooperative community effort,” said Jim Thomasson, president of the business council. “After all, unity is precisely / what the Fourth is all about.” As in years past, the festival will begin at 10 a.m. on the Fourth, when Gay St. is closed to traffic and transformed into a crafter's paradise. More than 50 booths displaying a wide variety of arts will line the street from the library to the Washington Baptist Church. And the food will begin early as well. “We learned quickly that you'd better start cooking as soon as things begin.” Fire Chief Roger Roach said. There will be traditional American fare such as hot dogs and hamburgers, more exotic dishes such as bratw’urst and knockwurst (served in a German beer garden) and Chilean entrees. The ladies of the Washington Baptist Church will offer box lunches for those eating on the run, and the Village Cafe will have food on the sidewalk too. If wine is more the style of the day, there well be plenty of that on hand as well, with five Virginia vineyards equipped for sampling, purchasing by the glass or by the bottle. For those contemplating a later meal, at 4 p.m. the fire department’s barbecue dinners go on sale. The pigs will be cooking all day on the monument grounds near the Courthouse, along with roast corn on the cob and other accompaniments. At noon, church bells will toll to summon the townspeople to a patriotic pageant on the steps of the Courthouse, with local residents in colonial costume convening for the reading of the Declaration of Independence and other historic documents. Also at noon, the Pegasus medevac helicopter from the University of Virginia Medical Center in Charlottesville will land on the lawn of Avon Hall. Its visit is planned for several hours, but Chief Roach noted that the chopper and its crew are on call, and if it is requested for an emergency, Pegasus may arrive late or leave early. If all the walking leaves visitors feeling like taking a load off their feet, they can stop in the Gay St. Theater, where free movies will be shown all day. This year, film buff Matthew Jaro of Adelphi, Md., has chosen comedy shorts—Laurel and Hardy, the Marx Brothers, Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin and W. C. Fields—from his collection of classics for his third Independence Day screening. Further down Gay St., the Rapphannock Library will have its annual used book sale, where bargainhunters can find classics and others at a discount. New this year at the library is a book-signing featuring local authors. Peter Exton (“Shunpiker’s Guide to the Northeast”), Ruth Higbie (“A Class Full of Gods and Goddesses in Nepal”) and Benita Kane Jaro (“The Key”) will be on hand to discuss their books and to sign copies for interested readers. The library also has a generous stock of “Flossie’s Recipes: The Wonderful World of Herbs,” a collection of recipes and remembrances compiled by Flossie Williamson’s friends, in memory of Woodville’s first lady of herbs. Mrs. Williamson’s friends also plan to have on hand an ample supply of Flossie’s herb tea and herb sandwiches—for those undecided about purchasing a book.

Trinity Church plans its annual triple play: ham biscuits and other Holy Chow, local luminaries scooping Angel Dips of ice cream, and tarnished treasures and other flea market items in the Resurrection Section. There will be music in the air all afternoon, with country, gospel, chamber and bluegrass groups scheduled to appear at different places around the town. There's always been an emphasis on children on Independence Day, from fireworks to taffy pulls. There won’t be any taffy in Washington, but there will be pony and cart rides, a “Moonwalk" and the aforementioned movies. And there’s plenty of green grass on the hillsides around Avon Hall for any little ones who need some room to run. Beginning around dinnertime, part of the evening program at Avon Hall will be dedicated to the children. Organized by Child Care and Learning Center Director Carrie Anabo. there will be a tug-of-war, relay races, games and other events for the kids. Since it is dinnertime. Mr. Carrigan suggests that families pack a picnic basket before setting out for Avon Hall for the evening entertainment. Or, if no one feels like cooking, there's plenty of barbecue at the fire department’s stand just up the hill. As the program continues with gospel music from The Singing Word and country dancing, a number of entertainers will circulate through the crowd on the hill, including a mime and a faeepainter. And, also on the lawn, an Arabian equestrian group will perform. Horses and riders will be clad in traditional costumes, including saddles inlaid with silver and flowing robes. The group has performed in past years, Mr. Carrigan said, and always has been a crowd-pleaser. Around 8 p.m., Rappahannock’s own Trapezoid will take the stage. This renowned band is known throughout the region for its fusion of acoustic music and haunting vocals. The group has recently added wind instruments and percussion, introducing a rhythm that propels the music and strengthens an already powerful sense of melody and texture. The evening entertainment will be capped by a finale of patriotic songs and the unveiling of another tradition at First Washington’s Fourth: the lighting of the luminari. As dusk settles on the Rappahannock hills the skies above Avon Hall will be lit once more by that most American of Independence Day traditions, the fireworks display. There will be no admission charge to any of the festival’s events. Free parking will be available at the Washington Fire Department’s property just off Rt. 211, as well as along the town’s streets, except in areas marked with “No Parking” signs. Cooperation requested from holiday visitors With an event as large as Washington’s Fourth of July celebration, there’s bound to be logistical problems. When between 5(000 and 10,000 visitors descend on a town of less than 250 residents, inconveniences are to be expected. Fortunately, the town’s experience with its annual festival has, in years past, kept problems to a minimum. Sheriff John Henry Woodward said that Gay Street will be completely closed to traffic for the entire day. Mt. Salem Ave., from Main St. to Rt. 211, will be “one-way” headed out of town. Sheriff Woodward requested that Mt. Salem Ave. be kept as clear of traffic as possible for the convenience of the residents. Parking will be available at the fire department’s property just off Rt. 211 on the east end of town. There will be additional parking along the town’s streets, but again Sheriff Woodward requests that visitors be aware of the areas marked with “No Parking” signs. Fire Chief Roger Roach, business council President Jim Thomasson, and William Carrigan all ask that visitors use the litter barrels which will be placed throughout the towm. There will also be a number of “porta-pots” set up on the grounds of Avon Hall, on the monument grounds adjacent to the Courthouse, and several other locations in town. And Sheriff Woodward reminds everyone of the danger of unauthorized or illegal fireworks, and along with Mr. Carrigan asks that no private fireworks be brought into town or onto the grounds of Avon Hall. Lastly, the sheriff warned that public consumption of alcoholic beverages is a misdemeanor under Virginia law, and that his department will be alert for anyone under the influence during the celebration, as well as intoxicated drivers on the roads. “NUGGETS OF TRUTH” Pastor Bill Taylor Maybe you are sick in your body, or are experiencing depression, or maybe you are having marital problems. Maybe you are having financial problems, or you may be addicted to drugs or alcohol, and you have no true lasting peace or joy in your life. Well I have good news for you: The Bible says in Hebrews 13:8, that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever. My friend, Jesus is still in the business of healing the sick and setting free those who are bound by those things 1 listed above. As you read the New Testament you will see Him feeding the multitudes and setting the captives free, and He is the same today, according to Hebrews 13:8. That’s the good news of the gospel that Jesus Christ is alive and well and that He hasn’t changed. So come to one of our church services at Family g Worship Center, and receive the need of your life met as Z we present Jesus and His life changing power to you. ServZ ice times are Sunday morning 10:30 and Wednesday night g at 7:00. We are located in the Old School building on Mt. Love in Christ Pastor Bill Taylor Fireworks pose hazard to eyes Too often Fourth of July fireworks accidents rob adults or children of the glorious sights of summer. Last year the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission estimated that more than 9,000 people were treated in hospital emergency rooms for fireworks-related injuries. “We are particularly concerned with the increasing percentage of eye injuries,” says Frank J. Carlomagno, executive director of the Virginia Affiliate of the National Society to Prevent Blindness. Many fireworks-related injuries strike children, often resulting in a permanent vision disability. An American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) study found that 40 percent of the cases reported caused permanent eye damage and in almost 25 percent of the injuries — mostly in children - either an eye was destroyed or some vision was lost. There are many misconceptions about fireworks. One is that fireworks-related injuries occur only in non-regulated states. In fact, enough fireworks find their way into regulated areas to account for 45 percent of the eye injuries. Another fallacy is that your children are safe if they don’t use fireworks. Actually, 25 percent of the eye injuries were to bystanders. Finally, don’t be fooled into thinking that there are “safe” fireworks. Even the widely available sparklers bum at 1800 degrees, a temperature almost hot enough to melt gold. Particularly dangerous are bottle rockets, which accounted for well over a third of the eye injuries noted in the study. The Society’s Virginia Affiliate warns against the use of fireworks. Unfortunately, the range of state laws and illicit markets make fireworks readily available. If you are going to use fireworks, the following safety guidelines are recommended: • Before using any type of fireworks, check state and local laws. • Children should never be allowed to discharge fireworks. Even “safe” fireworks (i.e., sparklers) are a danger to children. • Read and follow all instructions and warning labels. Wear eye protection. • Fireworks should only be used outdoors in a clear area away from homes, buildings and combustible materials.

With the recent drought, sparks from exploding devices could also cause fires. • Be sure others are out of range before lighting fireworks. • Keep water nearby for emergencies and to douse malfunctioning fireworks. Never handle or attempt to relight a firework that does not go off. Soak it thoroughly before discarding. • Never ignite fireworks in a container; glass and metal containers can easily shatter.
