According to Ken Phillips, the assistant location and design engineer at the department’s Richmond headquarters, VDOT did not issue a memo last week forbidding the release to the public of value engineering studies. If there were such a memo “it would have been generated by the Attorney General’s office,” he said. Rumors of a “ban” memo reached him last week, Mr. Phillips said, adding he’d checked with his superiors and found no one who knew anything about the alleged prohibition. And if a directive relating to VDOT procedures had been sent by the Attorney General’s office, “I certainly would have seen it,” he maintained. A spokesman for the Attorney General’s office in Richmond said that she could find no record of any memo relating to the dissemination of VDOT value engineering reports. She said, however, that the assistant attorney general responsible for Rappahannock County would investigate and and inform the Rappahxinnock News of his findings. At press time, he had not yet contacted the newspaper. The inquiry to VDOT headquarters was prompted by charges from a member of the local organization which opposes the dual-laning of Rt. 211 between Washington and Sperryville. The individual, who asked not to be identified, also reported to the Rappahannock News that members of the value engineering team which reviewed the Rt. 211 project take issue with Mr. Phillips’ depiction of their report as a classroom exercise which gives inaccurate cost projections. Further, the caller to the newspaper contended that a value engineering study is a requirement for highway projects receiving federal funds. The study done in May by VDOT engineers has been cited by opponents as compelling evidence against the proposed dual-laning. According to the handwritten conclusions in the study workbook, a copy of which was obtained by the Friends of Old Route 211, accident history and traffic volume increases do not demonstrate a need for a four-lane divided highway between Washington and Sperryville. As an alternative to the $9.6 million project fftr constructing 4.1 miles of dual lane, the engineers recommended simply widening the pavement and shoulders on the existing two-lane road at a cost of just $1.4 million. See VALUE STUDY, p. 14 Dr. Lynn, Wakefield's founder dead at 46 after short illness By LOU HATTER Rappahannock N*w« Staff Writer Dr. William Eugene Lynn Jr., headmaster and founder of Wakefield Country Day School, who transformed his personal dream into one of the most highlyacclaimed preparatory schools in the Commonwealth, died of Legionnaires’ disease Aug. 27 at Mary Washington Hospital in Fredericksburg. He was 46. “I feel a tremendous loss,” said Father Albert Verbeke, Dr. Lynn’s pastor at St. Peter’s Catholic Mission in Washington, Va. “He was a tremendous asset to his church and his community. People looked up to him. He was a terrific guy to be with — always an inspiration.” A native of Front Royal, he was the son of Clydetta E. Lynn and the late Dr. William Eugene Lynn Sr. The younger Dr. Lynn had made his home in Washington, Va. for many years. It was in Rappahannock County that he chose to locate Wakefield Country Day School, which he founded in 1973. That school has grown from 30 students in the primary grades to more than 400 students from the United States and abroad, who range in age from pre-kindergarten through high school. Father Albert remembered Dr. Lynn as “a humble man, although he was a great scholar in his field. But he was never pretentious or self-asserting. . .He was a man who used his brains and his heart, a man as solid as a rock.” Dr. Lynn was always eager to share his knowledge, of history and of other fields of study, with his students, Father Albert said. “He was a man who loved truth, and who shared it. He patiently led his young people to the truth.” Roberta Anderson, past president of the school’s parents’ association and former member of its board of trustees, said of Dr. Lynn, “I don’t know of anyone who worked as hard for academic excellence. He pushed each child to their limits in hopes that he could improve their ability. He has been the most dedicated educator I have ever met. “I don’t know how we will fill the void. There’s no one person who can fill his shoes.” she said. “We just have to hope that what he started will continue. It won’t be easy, but if he were here, he would ask, ‘When has it ever been easy?’.’’ Mrs. Anderson told of the extended field trips he took his students on, to New York City, Baltimore and Philadelphia, as well as extended six-week summer programs in England where they studied British history and literature. “They were not play trips,” she said. “They were all educational — part of the learning Rappahannock News photo/Cindy Mahan AS WAKEFIELD S HEADMASTER, Dr. William E. Lynn Jr. delivers welcoming remarks during the school’s commencement exercises this past June. process.” His dedication wasn’t just for the nine months of the school year, Mrs. Anderson said. “In the summer he taught SAT preparatory classes, and remedial classes for those who needed it. He tried to work with each kid. . . He would tutor on Saturdays or whenever the parents could arrange it. ” Dr. Lynn credited his love of history to his boyhood when he often played on Rose Hill, where a Civil War skirmish had left a cannon ball still imbedded in an ancient tree. When he learned to ride a bike, his favorite haunts became the county’s public library and the Confederate Museum, where he could be found poring over books about the Civil War. See DR. LYNN, p. 13 Proposal would solve family division dilemma “It’s nice to find a solution to a problem,” said Planning Commissioner Werner Krebser at the close of an informal and relaxed work session Tuesday night. The problem? A perceived inequity and possible legal challenge to Rappahannock’s zoning and subdivision laws arising out of the denial of a family subdivision. The solution? An ordinance amendment which would allow a sixth family subdivision from lots of record as of 1962 by special exception permit and in compliance with essentially the same standards which now govern the granting of variances. This spring, when Joan Brown Doares sought approval to subdivide five acres for her son, she learned there were no family subdivision rights left for her property. Rappahannock’s zoning law allows five byright family subdivisions (with a two-acre minimum lot size) from parcels of record as of 1962. In 1962, Mrs. Doares’ 16 acres was part of 42 acres which belonged to her father, Paul Brown. He subdivided the property, giving 16 acres to Mrs. Doares and 26 acres to her sister. The sister subsequently sold her land, and just weeks before Mrs. Doares’ visit to the zoning office, the new owners had received administrative approval for three two-acre lots under the family division exception. The three lots, plus the 20-acre residue and Mrs. Doares’ 16 acres, totaled the five cuts allowed by right. Denied administrative approval, Mrs. Doares simultaneously applied for a special exception permit to transfer five acres to her son and proposed a zoning ordinance amendment that would have allowed five cuts from any lot which wasn’t created through the family exception. But in the face of concern that the amendment as written would open the gates for a flood of small-lot development, she withdrew her proposal for an ordinance change and agreed to the tabling of her special exception application — which carried a recommendation of denial from the Planning Commission — to give the county time to come up with an alternative. Earlier this month, the Board of Supervisors enacted regulations which would prevent the same scenario from being repeated by limiting a landowner to one family division in a calendar year and requiring that all affected property owners — those whose land was part of the same parent parcel in 1962 — be notified that such a division has taken place. But those changes didn’t entitle Mrs. Doares to subdivide five acres for her son. The proposed amendments worked out by the planners and County Administrator John McCarthy on Tuesday do, how ever. The amendments, which will be considered by the commission at a public hearing later this month, allow for a sixth lot by special exception permit providing the following standards are satisfied: • strict application of the zoning ordinance would result in undue hardship. • the hardship is not shared generally by other parcels belonging to the same parent tract. • granting of the permit would not be of substantial detriment to adjoining properties. • the density shall be in keeping with the density on other parcels deriving from the same parent tract. “This effectively draws the line,” affirmed Mike Massie, the Board of Supervisors’ representative to the Planning See TRANSFER, p. 14 The 'Class' of 1988 ' Rappahannock Newt photo/Lou Hancr BEFORE BEGINNING ORIENTATION, this fall’s newly-arrived teachers gathered for a “class” photo.

Water questions remain at Lakes By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock News Staff Writer Charles Shepherd, the Health Department’s sanitarian manager for the five counties in the RappahannockRapidan Planning District, has put a hold on permits for septic fields in Rappahannock Lakes, awaiting word from his superiors on the legal ramifications ensuing from private wells in the small-lot subdivision which was initially intended to be served by a public water system. The subdivision of 70-odd lots ranging from a quarter to a half-acre in size was recorded in the late 1950s before Rappahannock County enacted zoning and subdivision ordinances. Meant as a vacation development with only parttime residents, Rappahannock Lakes has become a yearround community, and as such, it has been continually plagued by water problems, both of quality and quantity. Those problems came to the attention of public health agencies over a decade ago. The primary well which provided water for the subdivision flows at a rate of just three gallons a minute, not nearly enough for the 27 households hooked on by the late 1970s. Taps frequently went dry, so to provide adequate quantity, a spring was patched into the system. But in 1978, sampling showed fecal coliform in the water, leading to an order from the Health Department’s Office of Water Programs to disconnect the suspect spring (which was located down-grade from a septic drainfield). A new well was dug; however, it added only 1-1/2 gallons of water per minute to the system’s supply, so the quantity problem continued, and by 1979, enough households had either put in wells of their own or hooked onto a private well belonging to nearby landowner Stanley Dye that the system apparently no longer had 15 connections or 25 users for at least six months of the year, the standard for qualifying as a public water supply.

Hospice offers grief workshop Because grief can be so painful ind seem so overwhelming, it often lightens the bereaved. Many people vorry if they are grieving in the “right” way, and they wonder if ;heir feelings are normal. Many peojle who suffer from a loss of somejne experience feelings of guilt or restlessness, loss of appetite, feel the loved one’s presence, aimless wandering, forgetfulness, difficulty sleeping, anger, mood changes, and unexpected crying. All these are natural and normal responses, according to Tina Weaver, executive director of the Hospice of the Rapidan. As a community service, Hospice of the Rapidan, a United Way agency, is sponsoring its second “Working Through Grief’ group for people who have had a significant person in their life die. It is free of charge. The group will meet for eight consecutive Tuesday nights beginning Tuesday, Sept. 20, at the Madison Methodist Church, Main Street, Madison. Meetings will begin at 7 p.m. and conclude an hour and a half later. Attendance at all meetings is essential, Ms. Weaver stressed. Marge Hall, hospice bereavement specialists, and Martha Galey, R. N., will lead the group. Session topics will include member’s expert-' ences, feelings, and reactions to death, the stages of grief, understanding feelings, and exploring support systems. Comments from the first group’s evaluations include, “I learned that others have suffered the same grief as I learned to deal with it,” and, “I was able to spend some time with people who faced some of the problems I am facing now.” These people can sincerely say they know what the bereaved are going through, the director said.

Water project won't affect floodplain The Town of Washington’s planned overhaul of its water system should not have any effect on the 100-year floodplain located in the town, according to a report released by the Farmers Home Administration. A notice sent out by the FmHA said that “the upgrade may have some impact” on the floodplain. The eport, which is required by FmHA regulations, was filed along with documentation to support the town’s ■ equest for financial assistance with t he project. However, a telephone call to the FmHA district office in Harrisonburg produced the clarifying statement from Vickie Racca, who is overseeing the project at FmHA. She explained that the law requires the notice to be sent to the town and published in the local newspaper so that residents will be aware of the situation. Ms. Racca said that there are no new connections planned for the floodplain area, and that the only impact would be the actual construction work which is done there when new lines are laid. She added that the only possible impact would be on future development of the floodplain area, which is strictly limited by state and federal law. Thus, “we don’t forsee any problems with it,” Ms. Racca said. “There should be no impact.” According to a statement released by the FmHA, the report is on file at the FmHA district office at 2112 Port Republic Rd., Suite D, Harrisonburg, Va. 22801. Anyone interested in reviewing or commenting on the document should contact the FmHA office. Comments must be filed within 30 days of the announcement, according to the FmHA. Correction In the General District v Court docket in the Rappahannock News issue of Aug. 16, the disposition of charges against Hugh S. (Dick) Atkins was incorrectly listed. Charges of brandishing a firearm and destruction of property were dismissed. A third charge of assault was continued for six months. The Rappahannock News regrets the error.

The amount of the subsidy, or a Wreck nets DU I, drug charges What began as an investigation of a traffic accident Saturday morning west of Sperryville ended with the arrest of one driver on charges of driving under the influence of drugs or narcotics and possession of marijuana. According to Trooper H. A. Newlin, a 1988 Ford Taurus rental car driven by Jonathan Francis Wilson, 30, 12703 Keswick Lane, Bowie, Md., was eastbound on Rt. 211 near Rappahannock Auto Parts when it ran into the back of a 1987 Isuzu Trooper driven by Austin Page of Manassas. Trooper Newlin said that the impact drove the Isuzu off the right side of the road, where it overturned. The Taurus continued on and ran off the left side of the road, narrowly missing the Hawkins fruit stand and running over an ice machine in the stand’s parking lot. It continued back across both lanes of Rt. 211 and off the right shoulder into the parking lot of Alson Atkins’s riding stable, missing several cars and a group of people standing there. After running back into the eastbound lane of Rt. 211 it again swerved back onto the right shoulder and struck a guardrail. That impact finally stopped the car, Trooper Newlin said, which came to rest with a picnic table wedged underneath its rear end. Trooper Newlin charged Wilson with DUI and possession of marijuana. Three passengers in his vehicle were taken to Culpeper Memorial Hospital with minor injuries. One, Christopher R. Ekins, 22, also of Bowie, was charged with being drunk in public. Three juveniles in the Page vehicle were also taken to CMH, where they were treated for minor injuries and released. Fire and rescue units from Sperryville, Washington and Flint Hill responded to the accident. Trooper Newlin said that both vehicles were a total loss. He said that the occupants of the Page vehicle were wearing seat belts, but that those riding in Wilson’s car were not. Motorcyclist hurt, charged An accident Friday afternoon on Rt. 211 between Sperryville and Thornton Gap left one man hospitalized after he lost control of his motorcycle and struck a car. According to Trooper C. A. Moore who investigated the accident, James Flynn, 22, of Falls Church was westbound up the mountain about 2-1/2 miles east of Skyline Drive on a 1985 Honda motorcycle. He was unable to negotiate a curve due to excessive speed, Trooper Moore said, and struck an oncoming car driven by Charlotte Estes, 24, of Bridgewater, Va. Trooper Moore charged Mr. Flynn with failure to obey highway markers. He estimated damage to the motorcycle at $500 and damage to Ms. Estes’s 1988 Ford at $1,000. Mr. Flynn was transported to Culpeper Memorial Hospital by the Sperryville Volunteer Rescue Squad. He was admitted with leg injuries and was later discharged. Excessive speed results in crash Trooper Newlin charged Aliza Gold of Vienna with reckless driving after a one-car accident early Saturday afternoon in Amissville. She was driving a 1982 Honda west on Rt. 211 near Mayhugh’s Store when the car ran off the right shoulder, struck an embankment and overturned. Ms. Gold was not injured. Trooper Newlin said that she was wearing her seat belt. Trooper Newlin said that excessive speed was the probable cause of the accident. He estimated damage to the Honda at $2,500. The Amissville Volunteer Fire Department responded to that accident. Three hurt as car flips Another one-car accident on Saturday afternoon left the three occupants with minor injuries. According to Trooper R. E. Keen, a 1982 Volksw agen Rabbit operated by Josie Barretto, 47, of Woodside, N. Y. was eastbound on Rt. 211 just east of the intersection of Rt. 522 at Massies Comer. Trooper Keen said that the car sw erved off the road onto the right shoulder and then traveled back across both lanes and into the median strip where it struck an embankment head-on and overturned. Mrs. Barretto and her twro passengers were taken to Fauquier Hospital, where they were treated for minor injuries and released. Trooper Keen charged Mrs. Baretto with reckless driving. He said that the occupants were w earing seat belts. The trooper credited the seat belts with saving them from more serious injuries when the car flipped over. Trooper Keen estimated that the Rabbit was a total loss. Fire and rescue units from Flint Hill, Washington and Sperryville responded to that accident. Speeding leads to drug arrest Trooper Newlin placed drug charges against a second person on Sunday afternoon after the vehicle she was riding in was stopped for a traffic violation. Trooper Newlin said he was working a radar check near Amissville when he stopped a car operated by Richard Roman of Arlington for speeding. After Mr. Roman and his passenger consented to a search of the vehicle, Trooper Newlin said he discovered a small container of marijuana. Mr. Roman’s passenger, Tanya McKee of 815 S. 21st St., Arlington, was charged with possession of marijuana. Mr. Roman was charged with defective equipment and reckless driving. qualification for free meals, is based on the size of the household and the total family income.

Sat. Published by Arundel Newspapers Member. Audit Bureau of Circulation. Editorial Dr. William E. Lynn Jr. The sudden and untimely death of Dr. William E. Lynn Jr. has left Rappahannock County without the quiet leadership of an extraordinary man. As an educator, he gained the respect of his peers in public education and his colleagues at other private schools. As a man, he was known for his gentle manner, humility and careful thought. Although he was not directly involved in the public affairs of the county, Dr. Lynn — or Mr. Lynn, as he modestly preferred to be called — let his presence be felt through his example as the headmaster of Wakefield School, the fine preparatory school he founded near Huntly. Those members of the community who were privileged to know Dr. Lynn speak glowingly of his single-minded devotion to excellence in academics. His pursuit of scholarship is remarkable in a time when, too often, academic excellence takes a back seat or goes unrecognized. “There just aren’t that many people who put what they truly believe in above their own personal pleasures. . .He wanted academic excellence; he wanted the best his students could do. And nine times out of 10 he got it.” That’s the way one member of the Wakefield community eulogized Dr. Lynn. Dr. Lynn was one member of a minority in his outspoken support of the importance of scholarship and classroom excellence. He recognized that, but refused to bend to the popular thinking. While sports heroes are the usual fodder of college and prep school press releases, Ur. Lynn filled Wa field’s announcements with the accomplishments of his scholars. He didn’t allow the achievements of his Owls on the athletic fields go unnoticed either, but he recognized that academic excellence, and not athletic prowess, is the road to success for the vast majority of young people. He was a vocal advocate of that belief. He publicly scolded several area newspapers for what he saw as their excessive zeal in glorifying athletics — at the expense of recognizing academic achievement. His feelings on that subject made him controversial in some quarters. But, as one long-time friend noted, “You never get criticized if you’re sitting back and doing nothing. Bill was trying to do something— something in which he believed deeply.” While he pursued learning with a passion, he also pursued it unselfishly. He shared his devotion and his passion with his students. Although his administrative duties grew as the school expanded, he stuck resolutely to his classroom post as well. He was not an easy teacher. He had high expectations of his students. But it was not the expectation of a man who drove them as he sought recognition for his own glory — it was that of a mentor who sjtw their potential and was determined that they should reach it. He realized what his students were capable of, and he believed that anything less than their best was effort wasted. That his belief was correct is eloquently expressed by the placement of Wakefield’s graduates in many of the finest colleges and universities in the United States. We salute Dr. Lynn’s dedication, and his resolve, and mourn his death. It is a great loss to his family, to Wakefield School and to the entire community. But even as we feel his passing, we are also grateful that he brought his dream and his passion to Rappahannock, and left the lives of all those he touched better and richer for having known him. VSP will increase patrols Labor Day weekend, traditionally one of worst holiday weekends in terms of highway fatalities, officially begins Friday, Sept. 2, at 6 p.m. and entends through midnight, Monday, Sept. 5, and the Virginia State Police are preparing once again to beef up patrols in an effort to encourage safe driving practices. Participating in Operation CARE for the 11th consecutive year, State Police will devote considerable attention to heavily-traveled highways such as the interstates, major primary highways and some secondary roads. CARE is an acronym for Combined Accident Reduction Effort, a state-sponsored national program operational during the major holiday weekends of Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, and Thanksgiving. “Our participation in Operation CARE over the years has helped call attention to the need to drive safely, and we believe this increased attention has helped reduce traffic crashes during heavily-traveled holiday weekends,” said Colonel R. L. Suthard, State Police Superintendent. Last year, eight persons died in motor vehicle crashes during the Labor Day weekend. “Our primary focus is to encourage motorists to obey posted speed limits and observe other laws and good driving practices." “However, motorists are the most important factor in reducing crashes and in lowering the severity of injuries sustained. It is extremely critical that motorists obey posted speeds, use safety belts, not drink and drive, and that they drive defensively,” Col. Suthard stressed.

Letters to the editor Photo worth 1,000 words To the editor: I’ve always heard the saying, “A picture is worth a thousand words.” That is a very true saying, because tne picture placed in the Rappahannock News last week, “speeders, beware!” has been the talk of the town. I think that Lou Hatter took about two steps ahead of himself by placing that picture in the paper. Your first step, Mr. Hatter, was not knowing that just because a person is stopped by an officer does not mean he has done anything wTOng; and your second step, Mr. Hatter, was not knowing that if a person is charged with doing something wrong they are innocent until proven guilty. Since you took it upon yourself, Mr. Hatter, to let the public know that my husband was stopped by an officer, I would like to take it upon myself to let the public know that he is innocent of any charges that you took upon yourself to place on him. Because of the embarassment that picture has caused us, I could give you more than a thousand words, but I’m sure you would not print any of them in your paper. MRS. RICHARD FAULKNER Castleton m_l. orders rates dropped RICHMOND- Virginia customers of The Potomac Edison Company will benefit from a reduction in the fuel factor rate portion of their monthly electric bill. The State Corporation Commission (SCC) has ordered the company’s fuel rate be lowered from 1.159 cents per killowatt-hour to 1.039 cents per killowatt-hour effective Sept. 1. The decrease in the fuel factor will lower the monthly bill of a residential customer using 1,000 killowatt-hours of electricity by $1.20, from $61.39 to $60.19, or 1.9 percent. The company’s fuel rate reflects the cost of fiiel used for the generation of electricity, including the cost of purchased power, and the benefits associated with sales of electricity to other utilities. Virginia law requires the Commission to continuously review the recovery of fuel expenses by the utility. If the utility is in an over-recovery position by more than five percent, the Commission may reduce the utility’s fuel factor to correct the over-recovery. The Commission found that under the current fuel factor, the company’s over-recovery totaled approximately $1.4 million as of July 31. The primary reason for the overrecovery was higher than projected revenue from the sale of power to other electric utilities. One reader who's not asleep To the editor: I would like to disagree with Robert W. Eastham’s charge that Lou Hatter and the Rappahannock News are putting readers to sleep. •' On the contrary, I believe that the News has improved a great deal under Lou Hatter and is on its way to becoming a GREAT paper. The front page is a case in point. On the left the long gray column headed “Old Rag Bulletins” notes short, important news items and public meetings. Especially helpful is the “Government at a Glance” section. I hope I never hear someone say again “I didn’t know about it, I didn’t see it in the paper.” Another new feature is that important news articles on the front page are continued on the back page, making it easy to be informed on the issues immediately affecting the county. I do not agree that Mr. Hatter has been asleep himself or that he is “part of the problem.” His reporting on the Old Hollow Kidnapping and shooting case was a tremendous service to the community. Not only did he report in depth on all aspects of the case but he and the Rappahannock News staff worked above and beyond the call of duty to get the paper out one day early for two reasons — we needed to know what really happened and to squash some really vicious and inaccurate rumors. When I saw that issue I thought “This boy’s going for a Pulitzer!” Lou Hatter and the News staff have also reported extensively on two other important issues recently. The Landfill and the Rappahannock Lakes water situation are issues that should concern us all. That’s responsible journalism, folks, not just a crusading editor. I hope Lou Hatter does get a Pulitzer Prize someday and I hope he gets it while working for the Rappahannock News! I also hope the News gets many other letters dealing with the other points Mr. Eastham’s letter raised. He used the public forum effectively; if you disagree, say so. Two other items: Nina Stamer of Flint Hill is Litter Coordinator for the county. Please support her efforts for a recycling center at the new landfill. Rappahannock citizens are too independant to go for mandatory recycling but many people will be glad to have a place where they can take glass, aluminium and paper. Not only can it lessen the landfill load but we must conserve our earth’s ever-limited resources. Finally, many of you know that Frank and I and Hie children have moved to Charlottesville. We ar£ sorry to leave and only do so to meet some of our family’s needs. This may in part explain, as Ray Pullen and Brad Fisher doubtlessly know, why water use in the town of Washington has decreased. It’s all that laundry that I was (and still am) hanging out — especially diapers (talking about recycling!) Thank goodness we can still get the Rappahannock News via the mail!

School policies and their implementation By ROBERT W. EASTHAM Rappahannock New» Contributing Writer I refer further to your news item of Aug. 18, headlined on the front page, “School Drug Policy Passes.” Without the text of this new 1988 policy before me (requested from •Dr. Gangel, the Superintendent of Schools), commentary about it is impossible at this time. I Opinion Not wishing to have anyone in this county left with the impression that adopting still another drug policy will, by itself, solve anything, I would like in this paper to cite a little history and to show that policies and their implementation are two entirely different cats. I know this from my own experience for I have been there — as you will see. We first find the Rappahannock School Board publicly adopting a “student behavior” policy as such in 1961. (Before that, apparently, verbal dos and don’ts from teachers and from home for the students sufficed. They seemed to when I was a young lad in the schools here). By 1967 (the county history of Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Johnson Jr. records) a more formal “effort” to discourage use of alcoholic beverages on school property was undertaken by the School Board. In 1971, the first formal “Policy on Drug Abuse” was adopted and the following year the Judge of the 7th Juvenile Court praised the School Board and commended the new policy regarding illegal drugs as “the first and only intelligent, clear, and thought-out approach I have seen.” (Don’t be too hasty, your Honor; there is a long and trying road yet ahead for our School Boards in Rappahannock!). In 1978, six years later, the Board adopted yet another “Policy on Drugs.” On July 1,1979,1 took the Wakefield seat on the School Board, my ears overfilled with private suggestions from other members about the urgent current problems and how I should vote on them to help the Board restore its credibility in the county. There was little to surprise me in this situation; it was simply worse than I had imagined or expected. Everyone in the county was aware of the rather bizarre events which had transpired in the proceeding months; your newspaper was full Call for a quote. Take a minute and compare Allstate for value.

The fact that most prospects will not confide their objections to the seller’s face. I've found that the great preponderance of buyers are gently, polite and caring individuals. That’s the problem. They don’t want to insult you. You may have the nicest face on the block, but a promising buyer may have abruptly decided that he couldn’t afford the price of your home and left. He didn’t want to hurt your feelings. On the other trod, price is a subject that they WOULD discuss with a Realtor (they do it all the time) who could then show them how it could possibly be financed within their means. A nice prospect wouldn’t dream of telling a nice seller that the carpeting was worn or certain rooms need to be repainted.

The students were almost in a state of open rebellion (particularly in the high school), with “protests” and “demonstrations” when they were supposed to be in classes, just before I joined the Board, and the superintendent and the principal appeared to be shutting their eyes on this whole scene. In short, by midsummer 1979, the School Board appeared to have lost control of their i 1 i* i r _ 1_a._1„* „l.. oUlUUl UloUlVb auiiwov vuiiipivvvij . vi soon would, unless drastic corrective actions were taken sooner. At this point, a small group of ladies in the Flint Hill area determined that the writer would not be seated on the School Board, charging irregularity of appointment, conflict of interest, etc. Searching for a constitutional officer who would get an opinion from Virginia Attorney General Marshall Coleman, these ladies drew a total rebuff from George Davis, our Commonwealth’s Attorney. Turning then to our delegate, George Beard of Culpeper, they got their opinion all right, but it was negative for them. (The only “irregularity” in my appointment was the unexpected unseating of their friend on the Board and my seating in his place). Later Mr. Eldred’s appointment and mine were challenged under the Virginia Freedom of Information Act and the Trustee Electoral Board was forced to go through the appointment procedure again in our cases. It did, with a vengeance; it nailed us to our seats this time, beyond challenge, until our terms expired. These were distractions and only that. For between my appointment and my very first vote on the School Board, there was absolutely no way the “distractors” could judge me as a Board member. But they soon found out what they did not yet know, as did my fellow Board members! Regarding senior professional personnel decisions, I had heard a Perspective ? area FORMED IN 1833 from Culpeper AND NAMED FOR THE wmm RIVER. couin<THIS great deal of an adverse nature before joining the Board and discovered, on joining, that all of the holdover members (with the most experienced among us) desperately wanted to put the ship under a new command. They wanted to bell some cats but the cats had them intimidated! For my own part, I, at first, flatly declined to be stampeded on this and did not join with the unhappy and disatisfied members until the spring of 1980. Although I realized that “people problems” generally are found to be the root cause of unsatisfactory service, I also wanted to be completely fair to the administrators involved. Sometimes there are three sides to each question: your side, my side, and the truth. As the months rolled by, the sufficient and creditable evidence piled in upon me that the “unhappy and dissatisfied” were right and that drastic changes were essential. Then the long, slow process of effecting a total change in the professional leadership of the public schools got underway — patiently, C5MCZ TRUCK Culpeper Motor Corporation 401 James Madison Hwy.

The days, weeks and months of this unhappy process did not include all happy days for me. There were personal confrontations, threats and unbelievable arrogance sometimes displayed by some of the “cats” who simply would not believe that these “mice” had the courage to bell them. But on this matter, the band of five mice was now united and determined. And, as I constantly reminded them, we were surrounded by an impenetrable shield if we knew our duties and carried them out in scrupulous compliance with the laws of the Commonwealth. And so it turned out. The turning point for me on this personnel issue came, I think, with my 13-day personal “return to school”, when I undertook a complete tour of every classroom in the kindergarten, elementary and high schools, on schedule with the children themselves, doing exactly what they did and taking all tests they took, including physical education classes and lunches. We rode the school buses together in the dead of winter, to and from school. It was the first time it had ever been done, to my knowledge, by any member of the School Board since 1870, when public schools were started in Rappahannock. In fairness to my fellow members, I Out of the attic Photo courtesy of J . T Woodward THE LAUREL MILLS STORE, about 1932. John T. Woodward Sr. is second from right standing on the porch. His son, J.

As promised in advance, I provided a confidential report of my “vacation” to all fellow members. My eyes and ears were opened to many aspects of the schools which had been only partially known to us on the Board. For me, some aspects saddened; but the overwhelming impression I carried with me was one of intense joy and happiness in the company of these children — particular the younger ones. I fell in love with them all — as though each were my own. That experience intensified my personal determination to do all I could to protect them from external harm — from drug pushers or anyone. I shall never forget this experience, this gift, until I die. On the drug problem itself, I had already been alerted when I took my seat and I saw no reason for postponing action The lessons we three learned (or should have learned) will be shared with the reader in Part 2 of this essay.

"Healing the family" workshop planned “Healing the family in the wise woman way”., a workshop led by Sherrry Willis and Kathleen Maier, will be held in Flint Hill on October 1 from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. The workshop presents parents as the family’s primary healer, while addressing the needs of practitioner and others interested in an in-depth exploration of the Six Steps of Healing as practiced in the Tradition. Beginning with an understanding of how the body heals itself, the coleaders will move through the use of imagery, thought, prayer, and the use of herbs as nourishment, seasoning, food and medicine. Different therapies will be explained as well as the appropiate use of drugs and surgery. A home herbal medicine chest will be provided for demonstration and discussion. Participants will assist in the preparation of salves, tinctures, inftisions and poultices to gain a better understanding of how and when to use plant materials. Sources for providers, growers and practitioners will be included in a handout describing each herb. Sherry Willis is a midwife and herbalist with a practice in the Shenandoah Valley. She has worked in women’s health, human sexual behavior and psychology since 1974, and has attended births at home for more than 10 years. She teaches workshops on family and women’s health as well as the Traditional Midwifery and Womancraft Intensive for midwives. She is her family’s primary health care practioner. Golden Key at Gay St. Music, literature, art and dance still reflect the ancient themes they did when the first men looked around and realized they’d have to learn from each other. The themes are the same, and so is the method — storytelling — to entertain, enlighten, teach and comfort. The Golden Key Performance Group, now based in Washington, Virginia, uses dancers, actors, storytellers, musicians and visual artists to present the stories, familiar and new, that touch those things in our lives that most confuse, frighten, inspire or delight us. The Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community is presenting this unusual local group on Saturday, Sept. 17, at the Gay Street Theater in Washington. Some of the faces on the stage will be familiar: Paul Reisler, the founder and director of Trapezoid, has been touring with that nationally-acclaimed group for thirteen years, as well as lending his considerable talent and energy to virtually every aspect of the music business, from instrument making to record producing. Julie Portman, director of the Golden Key, is an Obie-award-winning theatre director and performer whose studies all over the world have influenced her understanding of the impulses and capacities common to all cultures. She’s conducted several very successful workshops regionally, and her work with the Golden Key has won her the regard of musicians, dancers and their critics all over this country. Denise Read is a dancer and actress who trained in New York, Boston and Washington. She’s appeared at theaters in Washington in New York in roles as varied as clowning and mask dance-dramas. Bob Read, like Paul a member of Trapezoid, is a performer, composer and recording engineer. He’s played rock and roll, jazz, traditional, even ancient Greek music, both for musical entertainment and for dramatic productions. To have artists of such experience and talent appear together in a small local theater is a rare event, a RAAC spokesman said. Advance tickets may be bought by calling RAAC at 675-3193, at any of the local RAAC outlets: The Village Cafe in Washington, Faith Mountain in Sperryville, Picture This in Warrenton, Royal Oak Bookshop in Front Royal, Burke’s Store in Woodville, or Culpeper Music Center. Tickets may also be bought on the night of the performance, which begins at 8. Kathleen Maier is an herbalist and body therapist in Rappahannock County, who trained as a physician’s assistant after beginning her study of herbal medicine in Chile 9 years ago. Her practice now is a balanced blend of allopathic study with the use of herbal medicine, imagery and color healing as her primary therar pies. She teaches Tai Chi Chuan and workshops on family and women’s health. The cost of the workshop is $50 per person and $80 per parent couple. For more information or registrations call 703-636-2221 or 703-6363078. It's a boy!

Several were coming by, introducing themselves, and spending a few moments in general conversation. One elderly physician approached with some difficulty, holding the arm of a younger doctor with one hand and gripping tightly onto his walking cane. His smile required his entire face to express itself. We talked a few moments about a point or two I made during the address. It was then that I spotted a beautiful gold cross, rather large, dangling on the end of a long chain, presenting itself prominently on his chest. "I see you have the cross, doctor,” I said, smiling and gently touching it. “Yes,” he said. “And everything that goes with it," and he limped on his way, still smiling that big smile. My eyes followed him through the crowd, as if transfixed. I thought: his “cross" is not his burden; not his limp; not his aging infirmity. No. His “cross" is in his face—his smile—not in his limp. And that's where the CROSS always ends up: on our faces, expressing “everything that goes with it." The old hymn is right: “At the cross, at the cross, where I first saw the light...."

Some variety for back-to-school lunches BY SANDRA RICHARDSON Extension Agent. Home Economics At the start of school each fall many moms rack their brain for new ideas to use for packing their youngsters exciting lunches. It is true that many young people are choosy eaters. They prefer to stay with old favorites day after day. Don’t force the issue, or you may end up with lunches untouched. Just make sure what they are getting nutritious and stay with it. Then try something new once in a while. Youngsters grow out of fussy eating stages more easily if they have been gently exposed to a vari ety of foods. When planning, think of lunch as having five parts: 1) protein, 2) vegetables, 3) fruits, 4) beverage, and 5) starch. Dessert is optional. Nutritional requirements will be met if one or more foods from each part are included. If sandwiches are not being eaten, include some other starch like potato or rice salad, a muffin or roll. Strictly speaking, the dessert column is not nutritiously necessary, although dessert can be nutritious as well as delicious. An old reliable ingredient for young people’s lunches is peanut butter; however, it is high in fat as well as protein. To lower the fat content, try combining 1 Tbsp. of peanut butter with one of these ideas. It will alter the taste somewhat, but you and your youngsters might like the new taste. • 1 Tbsp. low-fat plain yogurt and 2 Tbsp. chopped raisins • 1 Tbsp. low-fat plain yogurt and 1 tsp. honey • 1 Tbsp. low-fat plain yogurt, 1 tsp. honey, and 2 Tbsp. grated carrot • 1 Tbsp. mashed banana • 1-1/2 Tbsp. applesauce • 1-1/2 Tbsp. apple butter • 1-1/2 li)sp. low-fat cottage cheese • 1 tsp. wheat germ (for a nutty taste) Bag lunches stand at room temperature several hours before eaten, and they often contain food that can spoil. Because of this, special precautions must be taken. Wash vacuum bottles and all containers after each use. Use hot, soapy water and a bottle brush and rinse. Let dry with lids off. If a vacuum bottle has a bad odor, there may be spoiled food clinging to the inside. Fill it with a solution of bleach and water (1/2 tsp. bleach to a qt. of water) and let stand 10 minutes. Then wash and rinse the bottle and cap thoroughly. Microorganisms grow very rapidly at room temperature, especially in hot weather, but their growth is slowed at hot or cold temperatures (below 45 degrees or above 140 degrees). Bag lunch foods will, therefore, be safer to eat if kept well chilled or thoroughly heated (where appropriate). They’ll also taste better than lunches held at room temperature. There are many tricks to keeping lunch foods cold. For drinks, use vacuum bottles. First chill the bottle by putting it in the freezer for a few minutes or try freezing individual USDA Choice Beef BONELESS SIRLOIN STEAK Prices in this ad good thru Sunday, September 4, 1988.

'V cans of juice to help keep the entire lunch cold. When making sandwiches, use chilled ingredients, such as egg salad, made the night before. Here are a few ideas for getting tasty, healthy food from the kitchen to the lunch table. - — — - Lunch boxes, especially insulated ones, hold the cold better than bags. A box is easy to wash and keep clean. If you use bags, make sure they are clean. Plastic containers for sandwiches will save money on plastic and foil wraps, but must be washed after each use. Save small plastic tups (sort margarine containers) for carrying salads, fruit, etc. A small vacuum bottle with a wide mouth might be a good investment. It can be used for carrying such things as chili, fruit, lettuce, or cole slaw. . . foods that might add variety to lunch. Don’t peel hard boiled eggs. The shell is a natural protective covering. Wait until you eat it. Dip the cut edge of fruits such as apples, pears, peaches and bananas in lemon, orange, or grapefruit juice to prevent them from turning brown. Curried Chicken Salad in Pita 1 c. cooked chicken, cubed 1/2 c. seedless grapes 1/2 c. chopped celery 1 tsp. chopped green onion 2 Tbsp. plain low-fat yogurt 1 Tbsp. reduced calorie mayonnaise 1/8 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. curry powder 3 whole wheat pita breads Mix chicken, fruit, and vegetables in bowl. Combine yogurt, mayonnaise and seasonings. Toss with chicken. Cut pitas in half. Fill each with 1/4 c. chicken salad. Three-Cheese Spread 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese 2 Tbsp. imitation cream cheese 1/2 cup grated cheese(Cheddar, Colby or Swiss) 1 tsp. chopped chives 1. Mash together the cottage cheese and cream cheese with a fork. 2. Add grated hard cheese and chives. Stir until thoroughly mixed. 3. Spread on bread of your choice. Spreadable Tuna 1 (7 oz.) can water-packed tuna, drained 1/2 cup plain yogurt or lowfat mayonnaise 1 small onion, finely chopped 1 cup peeled and chopped cur cumbers 1 Tbsp. lemon juice 1 Tbsp. sweet relish or chopped sweet pickles Dash of pepper 1. Combine all ingredients together in mixing bowl and mash with fork flntil mushy. 2. Serve on whole wheat bread, top with lettuce. Peanut Cake 2 cups all-purpose 2 tsp. baking powder 1/4 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. baking soda 2/3 cup butter or margarine, softened at room temperature 3/4 cup sugar 2 eggs 4 ripe bananas, peeled and mashed, about 2 cups 1/2 cup plus 6 T. coarsely chopped salted peanuts, divided In a large bowl stir together flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. In a medium bowl cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy; beat in eggs. Alternately beat in dry ingredients and bananas just until well-combined; stir in 1/2 cup peanuts.

He graduated in 1959, capturing top honors as the class valedictorian. After spending a year abroad in Lausanne, Switzerland, he returned to school at Davidson College in North Carolina, where he earned a degree in history. He then traveled abroad again, to Dublin, Ireland, where he graduated from Trinity College with a master’s degree in history. His doctorate was awarded by Oxford University in England for his research on John Balliol and the Reformation. Dr. Lynn said that the untimely death of his father was the impetus for his entry into Harvard Law School, where he spent two years. His father, Dr. Lynn said, felt that history offered poor prospects for a living and urged his study in the law instead. In the late 1960s, Cambridge was a hotbed of resistance against the Vietnam War, and Dr. Lynn said that although he found most of the activists had clear ideas about the war they were protesting, they had little historical perspective on which to base their feelings. “I became worried that the best minds in the country were being so totally robbed of any knowledge of their civilization and culture,” Dr. Lynn said. So, after two years of law school, but still feeling drawn by history and education, he left Cambridge to attend Rosary College in Chicago. There he completed a teacher-training program modeled on the Montessori method of teaching kindergarten through sixth grade. It was at Rosary Academy that he met Pamela Voeks, another teacher with similar ideas about education. Finding a mutual interest in history and education, the two soon married. The Lynns next moved to Winston-Salem, North Carolina, where he taught for a year at the newly-opened Salem Academy. After one year’s experience in teaching and administration however, Dr. Lynn decided that it was time to pursue his dream of founding a private school where the students would receive the education he had found lacking in public schools. Moving to Rappahannock County, he opened Wakefield Country Day School in Huntly in 1973. In the 15 years since the school opened its doors in a modest, frame building, its name has spread far beyond Rappahannock County. Wakefield students routinely place near the top in state and national examinations, and its graduates go on to studies in the nation’s finest colleges and universities. Dr. Lynn’s philosophy of education, that students should be fluent not only in English and mathematics but firmly grounded in their cultural heritage, continues to be the cornerstone of Wakefield’s curriculum. “His effort and his desire,” Mrs. Anderson said, “was to provide an education which would help them in life. For the most part it has worked out.” And although his duties as an administrator increased as the school grew, Dr. Lynn refused to give up his place in the classroom — teaching history, English and British literature to Wakefield’s students. And, his students recognized that was where he really felt at home. They recounted memories of a mesmerizing storyteller who was equally at home teaching ancient Roman history, the Middle Ages or modern European history. But through word of mouth from older students, his charges looked forward especially to the weekend field trips each fall to the area’s Civil War battlefields. They would spend the day walking the fields and scrambling up hills and across fences, listening as Dr. Lynn recounted the battles which had played across the countryside. Although he was a rabid Confederate when he played on Rose Hill, as an adult Dr. Lynn became an equally committed Unionist. He said that he “recognized that only a united nation could confront modern problems and provide the leadership so desperately needed in an uncertain world.” Mrs. Anderson praised his total dedication to Wakefield. “He would work a full day, teaching and tending to the school’s affairs, drive the children home on the bus, then go home and eat with his family. After dinner, he would return to school and grade papers and prepare for the next day until the wee hours. He would sometimes sleep at Wakefield, waking up early to drive the school bus on the run to Gainesville the next morning.” On the weekends, she added, people arriving early for an event at the school “would find Dr. Lynn busy polishing a windowpane which didn’t look quite right. And Pam was right beside him — and the children too. They were not above doing whatever needed to be done.” Mrs. Anderson, whose daughter Jennifer began school in Wakefield’s kindergarten and will be a senior there this year, recalled telling Dr. Lynn once that he should raise the school’s tuition so he could hire some help. “He replied, ‘I can’t do that. If I raise the cost we will exclude some students.’ That was Dr. Lynn — he wanted the best for as many students who could take advantage of it. “He has provided a tremendous service to the community,” Mrs. Anderson said. “He loaned buses to the 4-H groups and to the Scouts. He not only provided the bus, he came along and drove! Whenever he felt there was a need, he filled it.” She added that he was never satisfied with the status quo, “constantly changing, trying new things and attempting to make the programs at the school better.” Sometimes, she acknowledged, Dr. Lynn’s ideas brought him into the vortex of controversy. “He was doing what he thought was best, and not everyone else agreed. . .But he always had the best interests of the kids at heart.” And, Father Albert said, it was not just his students who felt his influence. “He has left a tremendous impression on his family. His is a great heritage which they will carry on and hand down.” Dr. Lynn is survived by his wife, Pamela Warren Lynn; three sons, Mathew Lynn of Washington, Wynn Voeks of Wildwood, N. J. and Douglas Voeks of Charlottesville; three daughters, Katie, Marcie, and Welby Lynn, all of Washington; his mother, Mrs. Clydetta E. Lynn of Huntly; and two sisters, Mrs. Leonard Shaw of Front Royal and Mrs. Molly Frazier of Hudson, Ohio. A rosary service was held in Dr. Lynn’s memory at Clore Funeral Home on Aug. 29. Funeral services were held on Aug. 30 at Precious Blood Catholic Church in Culpeper, with Father Albert Verbeke and Father Maurice du Castillon officiating. Dr. Lynn was buried at St. Peter’s Catholic Church Cemetery in Harper’s Ferry, West Virginia. Pallbearers were Wynn Voeks, Douglas Voeks, Richard Viguerie, Timothy Tarr, Tony Wilson and William Wilson. Honorary pallbearers were Dr. Edwin Eastham, Charles E. Leadman, Robert King, Philippe Cognan, Nelson Lane, Col. Robert R. Dickey, and Peter Quinn. Clore Funeral Home of Culpeper handled the funeral arrangements. In lieu of flowers, contributions in Dr. Lynn’s memory may be made to the William E. Lynn Scholarship Fund, Wakefield School, Huntly, Va. 22640. Water Continued from page 1 The Health Department’s Office of Water Programs stopped its monitoring in 1979, although records do not show who made the decision that Rappahannock Lakes no longer qualified as a public system, when the decision was reached, or the information on which the decision was based. However, the local Health Department continued to view the subdivision as designed with a public system and still served by a public system, regardless of the number of actual users. But that opposing stance was never an issue until this spring when, during consideration of a variance application for one of the small lots in Rappahannock Lakes, the county’s Board of Zoning Appeals asked for certification that water and septic provisions meet current Health Department standards. As far as the water issue is concerned, the upshot was the initiation of procedures by the Office of Water Programs to revoke the public water system permit for Rappahannock Lakes. During hearings on the variance, it was also learned that in September, the Health Department is scheduled to begin granting permits for private wells, further, that permits might not be forthcoming for lots in Rappahannock Lakes. But whether local sanitarian Jack Lockhart will write permits for wells in the small-lot subdivision once the Health Department assumes authority over private water systems is now a non-issue, at least as far as a dozen or so homeowners are concerned. According to County Administrator John McCarthy, 12 to 14 new wells have been dug in Rappahanock Lakes in the last few weeks, circumventing the new regulations which require Health Department approval of private, residential water systems. Presently, the health agency has authority over the placement of private wells only when wells are installed in conjunction withvtf septic drainfield; then a buffer distance of 100 feet for class III wells and 50 feet for grouted class II wells must be maintained. However, that limited control will be broadened on Sept. 15 when new regulations are scheduled to take effect. Under those regulations, all residential wells require a permit and all must meet buffer distance standards “from sources of contamination” of 100 feet for a class III well and 50 feet for a class II well, according to Mr. Lockhart. The distances are greater if the well is downslope from a source of con tamination, with an extra 25-foot setback necessary for each five percent in grade, the local sanitarian noted. Assuming those standards are met, will permits be given in Rappahannock Lakes? The answer depends on answers to othei questions, says district sanitation manager Charles Shepherd. The questions Mr. Shepherd has posed to E. D. Simmons, regional sanitation manager for the northwest region, are the same that County Administrator John McCarthy sees as critical: • what happens when a landowner applies for a septic field on his lot and the field cannot be installed without coming within 50 feet of the class III well on an adjoining small lot? • if the existing well was installed without a permit, will the septic field take precedence and be approved by the Health Department, effectively condemning the private water supply next door? • or will the septic permit be denied in order to protect the existing private water system? • and if a disgruntled landowner decides to take legal action to challenge the “taking” of his property — either through denial of the septic permit or condemnation of the private well — who does he sue? “We’re trying as hard as we can to get answers,” said Mr. Shepherd in a telephone interview Tuesday afternoon, noting that he has followed up an Aug. 17 letter to the regional sanitation manager with several phone calls. And until he gets those answers, the Health Department is taking no action on several applications for septic fields in the Rappahannock Lakes subdivision, he said. Both the Health Department and Rappahannock’s Board of Supervisors would like to see the small-lot subdivision served by a public water supply, Mr. Shepherd confirmed, but neither has the power to force the original developer, Dr. James E. Williams of Front Royal, to upgrade the system. “From a public health standpoint, we’re not enthused about putting wells on small lots in close proximity to septic fields,” he explained. At present, those lot owners who were formerly connected to the public water system and who have septic fields already approved can put a well in anywhere they choose without adhering to the minimum separation distance. And they may continue to be able to do so, even after Sept. 15. “There’s still nothing definite” on when the new regulations become operative, the district sanitation manager reported. For budgetary and planning purposes, the local Health Departments were told to figure on Sept. 15, “but there’s been no memo from Richmond saying as of this date you will do this, so implementation may be delayed.” However, when the well-permitting authority becomes vested and once the regional office assures Mr. Shepherd that no legal liability will be incurred, then if the minimum separation distance is met, “we’re going to issue well permits out there [in Rappahannock Lakes],” he said. As to the septic permit applications now on hold and others which may be sought for the approximately 30 unimproved lots in the old subdivision, “I believe we’re going to have to say no to some,” the district sanitation manager continued. Even without well-permitting authority, if septic approval is sought and the lot does not have an existing water supply, the Health Department is obliged to require a well be sited, and then the minimum separation distance between well and septic fields must be satisfied, he explained. “It will probably be first come, first serve. . .If we apply that minimum separation distance [between new septic fields and existing wells], in all likelihood, it’s not going to be met on those small lots.” Whatever the outcome, Mr. Shepherd concluded, “we’re not going to make any friends!” Lunches Continued from page 10 2.

Value study Continued from page 1 Asked to respond to the study’s recommendations, in a telephone interview on Aug. 16 Mr. Phillips said the review of the Rt. 211 project was conducted as part of a week-long workshop on value engineering. The value engineering team had just a day or two to examine the proposed improvements to 211 and virtually no time to devote to cost projections for various alternatives, he said. And if the project were to be scaled down to widening the pavement, very little of the existing road could be used and still meet current design standards, specifically for grade and sight distance, he said. To satisfy those standards, it would be necessary to essentially build a new two-lane facility following a new aligment, which would cost far more than the $1.4 million estimated by the study team, Mr. Phillips said. Engineer Joe Staton, a 27-year veteran with VDOT, was team leader for the value engineering study of Rt. 211. He confirmed in a telephone interview this week that the study was done as part of a course “to instruct us on the princi pals of value engineering." By analyzing the proposed improvements to 211, “we were hoping to tumble across an idea that hadn’t been thought of before. . .an alternative that would give the same product for less money.” The alternatives the team came up with —eliminating the westbound lanes of the divided highway or widening the existing pavement and shoulders — were then passed on to the location and design engineers to “fine tune,” particularly in the area of cost projections, Mr. Staton said. “If Ken Phillips says our dollar estimate was way off, it probably was, because that’s his business to know.” And he confirmed that federal standards (which must be met if the project is receiving federal funds) allow for a “lesser degree of curve and a lesser degree of grade.” The team leader for Rt. 211’s value study also noted that he was unfamiliar with Rt. 211 itself and had not seen the road before directing the review of the project. “I don’t know the lay of the land in Rappahannock. I’m from flat country —the Northern Neck. We don’t have terrain like that down here.” And again he pointed out that the value engineering study was “part of an exercise,” adding “we gave it our best shot.” According to George Kirk, the Farmers: prepare now to apply for drought aid “Farmers should prepare now to apply for drought aid so they will be ready to show eligibility after pending legislation is enacted,” according to Linda Henry of the Rappahannock County ASCS Office. If enacted, the legislation will authorize disaster payments for feed grain crops on participating and nonparticipating farms. The proposed legislation considers a disaster to have taken place when a producer suffers more than a 35 percent loss of the established ASCS yield. “We probably won’t have the details of drought assistance for several weeks,” Ms. Henry said, “but there are some things producers can do to help make sure they get the t>enefits of any new legislation. To facilitate applications for the program: If you plan to harvest disaster-af fected grain crop or soybean acreage for other than grain or beans, request appraisal before harvesting the crop. If you harvest disaster-affected grain crop or soybean acreage for grain or beans, you should request bin measurement before using any for livestock feed. For grain commercially stored or disposed of off the farm, acceptable production evidence must be maintained. If you plan to destroy or graze a disaster affected crop, request an appraisal before doing so. If you have destroyed a disaster affected crop before this notice, further instructions will be issued. File requests for appraisals and bin measurements at the Rappahannock County ASCS office, located on Gay St. in Washington, or call 6753616.

But just because you believe they exist doesn’t make you a Christian. Many believe if you are a member of a church and if you give money or work for a church, then you are a Christian. Jesus said in John 3:3 “Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Jesus wants to come and live in your heart and give you a new heart and a new life. And he wants to cleanse you from all your sin. That is why you must surrender your heart to him. Jesus said “Behold, I stand at the door and knock, and whosoever will let me in, I will come and sup with him.” Romans 10:9 & 10 tells us exactly how to be born again. “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God has raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. So, my friends, if you will do this with all your heart, then Jesus will come to live in your heart and give you a brand new life. He will fill you with love, peace and joy. It will be the greatest decision of your life. Remember your life depends on that decision. Please feel free to call me at 987-8014. Or visit our church on Mt. Salem Ave. in the Old School Building. Our service times are 10:30 Sunday and 7:00 p.m. on Wed. Love in Christ Pastor Bill Taylor district engineer for the Federal Highway Administration’s District B, the federal government requires only that states have a value engineering process. “It does not require them to apply it to every highway project.” But even though it is not a requirement, value engineering is applied to “every project we have. . .at all levels,” said Mr. Phillips. It is separate from the studies done in conjunction with VDOTs workshops and is not a formal procedure but occurs at “certain built-in stages” of “the scoping process, the conceptual process,” and other steps in the development of a highway project, he explained. This on-going value engineering isn’t done by a special team of VDOT engineers but rather involves “people who have been schooled in the value engineering process,” Mr. Phillips said. Addressing the Rt. 211 study, the Federal Highway Administration’s district engineer said that VDOTs teams conducting workshop exercises “take a project out of context.” In this instance, he said, the team did not take into consideration that under the Code of Virginia regulations, 211 is part of the state’s arterial system and thus elimination of the parallel lanes would be precluded. “They were not privy to that,” Mr. Kirk added. Replying to another charge from the Friends of Old Route 211 — that the draft environmental assessment of the dual-laning does not meet federal standards — the federal highway engineer said: “I signed it. I wouldn’t have signed [the draft assessment] if, in my judgment, it didn’t meet federal standards. . .Nothing has been uncovered to discredit it. This is just a draft. You take the draft to public hearing, you give people a chance to comment, and then you address the comments. We’ve told those folks (the Friends of Old Route 211) that all their concerns will be answered in the final assessment.” According to Mr. Phillips, VDOTs district engineer is still reviewing the transcript from the public hearing held in July at the Rappahannock County Elementary School and the written comments received in the 10-day period following that hearing. Sometime in October, the district engineer should make a recommendation on the Rt. 211 project to VDOTs chief engineer, J. S. Hodge. Mr. Hodge will then give his recommendation to the members of the Commonwealth’s Transportation Board, who will have also reviewed the hearing transcript and other records. Finally, the board will decide, probably in late October or early November, whether to proceed with the dual-laning, Mr. Phillips said.

According to coordinator Paul Poling, the school will offer a variety of classroom and practical courses for both novice firefighters as well as those volunteers with more experience. The courses available, and the dates, include: Trench rescue: A 16-hour heavy rescue course which will combine classroom instruction and practical experience to familiarize students with methods to make trenches and excavations safe for victim access and removal. Emphasis will also be put on developing “pre-plans” of locally available materials and equipment. Actual sheeting and shoring of “unsafe” trenches will also be practiced. Students will be required to wear helmets with eye protection, gloves and work boots (preferably steel-toed).Sept. 17 and 18 only, L. P. Gas: An eight-hour course on liquified petroleum gas fire suppression. Both classroom instruction and “live fire” drills using an L.P. gas tank will be included in the course. All students must bring full turnout gear and SCBA. Sept. 10 only. Rural water supply: An eighthour course designed to provide theory and training in the use of tanker shuttles and dump sites to supply water to rural firegrounds. A major part of the course will concentrate on actual tanker shuttle operations using remote pond sites, dump tanks and pumper supply lines. Students who can supply a department tanker are encouraged to bring it with them. Full turnout gear is recommended. Sept. 11 only. SCBA basic/MAZE trailer/ Structure fires: A 16-hour course which will begin with the basic design and operation of personal selfcontained breathing apparatus. On Saturday afternoon, each student will become familiar with SCBA using the Fairfax County MAZE trailer. On Sunday, extensive “livefire” operations will be conducted in Amissville’s smokehouse. Each student will be required to supply full turnout gear and SCBA each day. This class mil be taught both weekends. Instructor II: A 24-hour classroom course on instructional techniques which will lead to National Fire Protection Association certification for those who are eligible. A $4 textbook is required and may be purchased at registration in Amissville. Participants will be required to attend all four sessions of the school. Preparing for incident command: A 16-hour National Fire Academy course which will help students to understand the concepts of incident command as they apply to incident response and fire behavior. A textbook is required, which costs $1.35 and will be available at registration. Sept. 10 and 11 only. Commanding the initial response: A 16-hour National Fire Academy course which will help students to develop the skills necessary to establish command and make decisions on the fireground. A textbook is required, which costs $1.30 and will be available at registration. Sept. 17 and 18 only. Chief Poling emphasized that since class sizes will be limited to 30 students, interested firefighters are encouraged to register early. Preregistration by Sept. 2 is encouraged. Cost of the classes will be $5 per weekend, or $10 for both weekends. Checks should be made payable to the Rappahannock County Volunteer Fire and Rescue Association. Registration will begin at 7 a.m. each day. Classes begin promptly at 8 a.m. Meals are not included in the price of registration, but will be available at additional cost at the Amissville fire hall each day.
