It was such a value engineering report on the department’s proposed Rt. 211 project which recommended against four-laning a 4.2 mile stretch of highway between Washington and Sperryville. The study team concluded that the accident history and traffic volume did not justify the expense of dual-laning the road. The team recommended as an alternative that the existing road surface and shoulders be widened, at a savings of 86 percent of the project’s estimated $14 million cost. According to the memo from Constance Sorrell, VDOT’s Management Services Administrator, the restriction on release of value engineering studies was prompted by “two value engineering project studies [which] have been released to the general public. This release occurred prior to advertisement of the project.” In a telephone interview Monday from her office in Richmond, Ms. Sorrell confirmed that one of the studies referred to in the memo was the one done on Rt. 211. Ms. Sorrell’s memo continues, “I would like to remind you that all project VE studies contain preliminary cost estimate data which is protected from release by Section 2.1342 (b) 15 of the Code of Virginia. “Please do not release past or future VE reports out "I'm a little sensitive to taking training exercises and saying that they are definitive studies." — Constance Sorrell Management Services Administrator, VDOT side the Department or FHWA (Federal Highway Administration) without the joint approval of the Construction and Location Design Engineers,” the memo directs. (Ms. Sorrell also confirmed that the memo contains a typographical error. The code section cited, which is known as the Virginia Freedom of Information Act, is actually Section 2.1342 (b) 14. It exempts from public review “Contract cost estimates prepared for the confidential use of the Department of Highways and Transportation in awarding contracts for construction or purchase of goods and services. ”) The memo was circulated, via electronic and paper mail, to 46 VDOT employees, including the district engi neers of the department’s nine districts. A copy of the memo was given to the Rappahannock News by the Friends of Old Route 211, a citizens’ group which opposes the project. A cover memo was also enclosed from Charles B. Perry, district engineer of the Northern Virginia highway district. Mr. Perry directed his assistants, resident engineers and section heads to “discuss this (Ms. Sorrell's memo) with appropriate members of your staff and be guided accordingly.” “There are several reasons why these reports should not be generally available,” Ms. Sorrell said Monday. “I am concerned that the cost/benefit analysis used by the value engineering teams has data available. . .which could be used inappropriately. To that extent, I’ve been advised that if we use cost estimates from the construction division they should not be released.” Sometimes, she explained, the value engineering studies contain specific or estimated cost figures for constructing various elements of the projects which could compromise the bidding process. “This is not,” she emphasized, “an absolute prohibition” on public release of value engineering reports. “It says, ‘Let’s get the approval of the location and construction divisions before the reports are released.’,” Ms. Sorrell said. Asked to differentiate the types of figures she cited as being protected from the cost estimates included in the department’s six-year road plan, Ms. Sorrell said it was See MEMO, p. 18 Landfill concept revised to area fill By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer After a two-hour review of seismic study data and a recommendation from a geohydrologist, the county’s Board of Supervisors approved a redesign of the county’s landfill, and directed engineer Leonard Joyce to send it to the state’s vision of Solid Waste Management for approval. Mr. Joyce presented modified plans to the board, replacing the previously approved trenches with an area fill. In that type of landfill, used extensively in flat country, an area is graded and covered with the liner, and trash is piled on top. After packing and covering, more trash is piled on top, until the desired elevation is reached. Mr. Joyce estimated the life of an area fill at the Stover site at 35 years if an elevation of 555 feet is the topping off point, and 59 years if the mound is elevated to 575 feet. The highest elevation presently on the site is 559.2 feet, Mr. Joyce told the supervisors. That, the landfill engineer noted, assumes the present volume of 15 tons of trash per day continues. If the volume increases, he added, the life expectancy would decrease accordingly. “There is no difference with trench and fill, or with grade and fill,” Mr. Joyce said, in response to a question from Jackson District Supervisor Ellis Bingham. “The same techniques are used with the liner and leachate collection system.” In dollar figures, he added, an area fill is likely to be less expensive than a trench and fill because the initial expense of excavation is not necessary. Mr. Joyce said that the had reviewed the plan with Berry Wright, technical services chief at DVM, and with engineer Terry Bonine. Both, he said, had given verbal approval to the redesign plan, though Mr. Bo nine requested backhoe excavations to confirm the soil depth estimates presented by Mr. Joyce; estimates which the engineer called “conservative.” Seismic studies conducted at the site, Mr. Joyce added, had confirmed that sufficient dirt is there to handle the daily, yearly, and final cover requirements for the landfill. That was one of the assurances sought by the state. In the “borrow” area, where dirt will be excavated for cover, geophysicist E. W. Scarlett Jr. said his seismic studies indicated an average of between 17 and 21 feet of dirt. Mr. Scarlett said that his studies had, in general, confirmed what Mr. Joyce had already found; that the proposed trench sites were crossed by outcroppings of rock. The usable trench depth, Mr. Scarlett said, likely runs from ten feet on the west end to “approaching 30 feet” on the eastern end. Although Mr. Scarlett acknowledged that the seismic studies do not show conclusively the location and depth of bedrock, he explained that, along with other data including bore holes and trench excavations, accurate predictions can be made. Mr. Scarlett’s conclusions were supported by George L. Bain, a geohydrologist who was hired by Joyce Engineering to survey the site. “It appears,” he told the board, “that all of the original bore holes ended up in the soft spots” of soil which alternate with rock ridges across the tract. “If we could design thin trenches, five to 10 feet wide, we could dig forever. Unfortunately, that’s not how we build a landfill.” But, Mr. Bain added, with slight design changes the topographical features can be used to advantage. Col. Bingham expressed concern about the possibility of leachate leaking through See LANDFILL, p. 18 On the stump Rappahannock News photo/Lou Hatter SENATE CANDIDATE MAURICE DAWKINS: “We have gone from a no-shot, to a long-shot, and we’re working on being a sure shot.” See related story, page 3. Board splits on denial of rezoning By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock News Staff Writer Rappahannock’s supervisors split three ways on a proposed commercial rezoning in the Rt. 211 corridor west of Washington. The upshot was a denial of A1 Henry’s application for a commercial designation on 1.6 acres currently in an agricultural district. County Administrator John McCarthy noted that the rezoning request may be moot in light of the resolution passed by the board at its August meeting, serving notice that it would look with disfavor on commercial rezonings in the highway corridor until the question of whether Rt. 211 will be dual-laned as planned for the 4.2 miles between Washington and Sperryville. In recommending that the rezoning be denied, “the Planning Commission went a little further than the highway,” noted Mike Massie, the board’s representative on the Planning Commission. “The four-lane is just one issue," he said, citing the “piecemeal” extension of the existing commercial zone as an equally important question. “The commercial district starts at the Hampton Inn (immediately adjacent to Mr. Henry’s property) and runs the other way.” If the county approves the rezoning of every lot next door to commercially designated property, “all of Rappahannock will be eventually zoned commercial,” Mr. Massie contended. Supervisor C. K. (Pete) Estes, who preceded Mr. Massie as the board’s delegate to the Planning Commission, recalled that in formulation of the comprehensive plan and during discussions on revisions to the county’s zoning ordinances, the stretch along Rt. 211 west of Washington from Ginger Hill to the Shade Road was envisioned as the area for future industrial and commercial growth. “I don’t see how you can deny (the rezoning request) . . . It’s spelled out in our own plan,” he maintained, citing Rappahannock’s comprehensive plan which states: “The Rt. 211 and 522 corridor just west of the town of Washington to Rt. 622 (The Shade Road) should be a focal point for economic and public facilities activities.” “I concur, but only to a point,” Supervisor Ellis Bingham said. “The rezoning of that land at this time is premature,” he added, noting that the resolution passed just last month recommends against any commercial rezonings along the highway until right-of-way acquisition for the dual-laning is complete. If the 1.6 acres is rezoned commercial, then the highway department — and the citizens of Rappahannock County — will be paying commercial prices by the square foot instead of lower agricultural prices by the acre, Col. Bingham said. However, he suggested that Mr. Henry resubmit his rezoning proposal once all the land needed for the highway widening is acquired. Likewise, Chairman Hubert Gilkey indicated he, too, would support the rezoning after the highway project is completed. Mr. Estes countered that the dual-lanes will be built on the opposite side of the existing road from Mr. Henry’s property. “As I recall, there’s no take on his side of the road.” Col. Bingham asked Mr. Estes if he would vote today for the rezoning. “I’m in favor of living within the bounds of the comprehensive plan,” the Piedmont representative answered. As for delaying until the dual lanes are constructed on the grounds that traffic from Mr. Henry’s proposed antique shop will create additional traffic hazards on an already inadequate road, “that’s a very weak out, considering the size of the property you’re dealing with,” he added. Mr. McCarthy pointed out that the comprehensive plan is “purposefully vague” on its delineation of future growth areas in order to “give*direction” while allowing flexibility. See REZONING, p. 18 Road hunting penalties set Just in time for hunting season, the Board of Supervisors last week enacted an ordinance prohibiting the hunting of game birds and game animals on or within 100 yards of a primary or secondary road. This local option law had been adopted originally in 1986 but without specifying penalties; this time, the board categorized violation as a class 11 misdemeanor, which is punishable by up to six months in jail and/or a $500 fine. “All of us know the county has in the past experienced considerable problems with shooting from the road,” said Bob Dennis, one of a handful of speakers at the public hearing Sept. 6 on the proposed ordinance. “Some people call it road hunting, but I don’t think it’s hunting.” Mr. Dennis, a landowner on Rt. 637 where so-called slob hunters have been a particular problem, noted that the joint efforts of the Rappahannock County Sheriffs Department and the Virginia Game Commission’s Enforcement Division brought “major improvements” to Rappahannock County last year. The ordinance under consideration will assist law enforcement officers in continuing that improvement, he said. “Take this tool and make sure it’s as workable as it can be.” “I don’t believe in shooting across the road or riding up and down the road to hunt,” See HUNTING, p. 14

F. T. Baptist marks 210th anniversary , R*pp«h»nnock Newi ph«o«/Lou Haller A GRAND OLD PARTY was had Sunday by the Republicans who rallied in Washington in support of GOP candidates. Speaking at the rally were, from left, State Senator Kevin G. Miller, Congressman D. French Slaughter Jr., Maurice Dawkins, Republican candidate for the U'. S. Senate, and Mary Scott Guest, representing her husband Andy, minority leader of the Virginia House of Delegates. Dawkins urges Jeffersonian ideals A'- “I want Virginians to ask themselves who they are — are they the inheritors of Thomas Jefferson’s legacy? If so, what do they want for Virginia in the 1990s and the 21st Century?” These were the questions dSked by Maurice Dawkins, Republican candidate for the U. S. Senate, as he addressed a rally of Rappahannock County Republicans last Saturday. v “What do we stand for? If it is for limited government, a strong defense and the Strategic Defense Initiative, a balanced budget, then elect Bush, Quayle, Dawkins, and Slaughter.” Mr. Dawkins railed against what he called the “cocaine invasion,” which is speading throughout the nation’s neighborhoods. “Nobody asks what kind of neighborhood you have when they are selling drugs.” Republicans, Mr. Dawkins said, are taking the initiative in proposing strong penalties, including the drug penalty for so-called drug kingpins. He proposed that users, too, should be subjected to stiff penalties Jffcr'drug possession. “Repeat offenders should lose their drivers’ licenses, federal contracts, student loans, the right to do business with the federal government. If they are should make it tough on them — those who use them as well as those who sell them.” The retired lobbyist, who acknowledged that he faces an uphill fight against Democratic nominee Charles Robb, also proposed that nations which produce drugs should be subject to the sanctions of the international marketplace. “If they know that they will lose international loans and funds, they will think long and hard before they do it.” He suggested that the time has come to put pressure on drug users, to make it “socially unacceptable” to use drugs. “Smoking is now unacceptable. I’m from a tobacco state, and I want another generation of prosperity for tobacco-growers — but people now get a choice. And, it’s tough to get people to sit next to people who smoke. They have made that choice.” Mr. Dawkins proposed that each state be allowed to keep seven of the nine cents per gallon in gasoline tax which is earmarked for the interstate highway system, now 98 percent completed. “If we want to have a Jeffersonian-style democracy, the people should have an opportunity to decide what roads to build — or not to build — on the local level.” And, he said he calls for a federal tax credit of $100, which could be used by investors in rural areas to establish a cooperative, similar to rural electrical cooperatives. “Onethird of this state is rural, without income. Young people are leaving — they don’t stay. We can revitalize these pockets.” This seed money would be used to set up businesses, or used to attract desirable businesses from outside the area. “It would produce jobs, the farmers would raise products needed by the businesses, and retail stores would spring up to serve the people, and others to serve their recreational and other needs.” The concept would allow, Mr. Dawkins said, “people themselves, rather than Washington bureaucrats, will determine their own destiny.” Mr. Dawkins concluded that, “We need to preserve and protect our traditional values — of honesty, truth, savings, a good day’s work for a good day’s pay.” Mr. Dawkins was joined at the rally by Congressman D. French Slaughter Jr., State Senator Kevin G. Miller, and Raymond R. (Andy) Guest, minority leader of the Virginia House of Delegates.

Turn left on Rt. 646 at the bridge and go one mile Ph. 703-743-4240 A little church nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains will celebrate its 210th anniversary on Sunday. The F. T. Baptist Church, located on Rt. 707 about one mile east of Rt. 231, will hold a Homecoming service at 11 a.m. Sunday, Sept. 18. The church was founded in 1778, and according to the church records, the first meetings were held in the open, on the banks of the Hughes River, under a grove of beech trees near Sharp Rock, upstream of Peola Mills. It was not until 1792 that 3/4 of an acre was donated to the Ragged Mountain Baptist Society by William and Judith Bradley “for no purpose except to build a meeting house on and to attend there a Divine service." There is no record of whether a meeting house was actually built. What is recorded, however, in the minutes of the Culpeper Association (now known as the Shiloh Baptist Association) is that in 1802 the church was referred to as “Ragged Mountain,” and in the minutes of the association’s 1804 meeting the name had been changed to “F. T. Baptist Church.” The church’s representatives to the association’s meeting, which was held at Thornton’s Gap, were Elder Conner, Thomas Wright, James Ward, and John Dod son. The first church records begin in 1805, and indicate that a meeting house had been built, but by 1816 was in such bad repair that a committee recommended that a new structure be built in a different location. A piece of ground was deeded to the church by John and Jamima Zimmerman, for $18 “current money of Virginia,” a lot of one acre and three rods “near Mr. Conyer’s store.” This is the site of the present church. According to the church records, the building committee completed construction of the new church in 1817. It was built, according to some accounts, in the shape of a cross. The building was enlarged in 1833 to make room for the church’s congregation, which had grown to almost 250 members. The Shiloh Baptist Association held its annual meeting at the church in 1853. Although the congregation voted in 1831 that it did not wish to become involved in a missionary society, by 1833 the church had a pastor. Rev. William F. Broaddus, who was active in missionary work and the congregation prevented any divisiveness by voting to allow those “brethren and sisters friendly to missions at libert to act as they may think proper.” Over the years, however, the F. T. Baptist Church, along with most Baptist churches, became active in missionary work. After the Civil War, the church fell into disrepair and its upkeep was beyond the financial means of the congregation. The building was finally torn down. By 1884, however, the church’s fortunes had turned around, and the minutes of the Shiloh Assocation tell that the F. T. Valley Baptist congregation have “nearly completed their new house of worship.” That building still stands today. According to tradition, the church pews were formed from one poplar tree, which was carried to the lumber mill by Charles S. Mitchell. Joseph Lewis Yowell donated walnut wood which became the new church’s pulpit and pedestals. It is felt that the benches in the church’s gallery came from the old building. During this period the church was served by a circuit pastor, P. H. Chelf. He lived at the parsonage at the Flint Hill Baptist Church, and served the F. T. Valley Church, Reynolds Memorial in Sperryville, Woodville Baptist and the Flint Hill Church. The churches all contributed to the housing fund and the maintenance of the parsonage. Later, after Rev. Chelf had left, the churches served by the circuit pastor included F. T., Reynolds, Woodville, and Mt. Lebanon Baptist in Scrabble. The pastor also preached at Oakley Baptist in Gid Brown Hollow on the second Sunday afternoon of each month. In 1945 the churches jointly pur chased the Sealock property in Sperryville, on which a new parsonage was built. In 1949, F. T. and Reynolds Memorial purchased the interest in the parsonage held by the other two churches. By 1963, the parsonage was determined to be in such disrepair that it could not be fixed, and land was donated by C. E. Johnson Jr. next to the Reynolds Memorial building in Sperryville, on which a new parsonage was built. The home was built by George W. Hawkins, whose grandfather, also George W. Hawkins, had built the present F. T. Baptist Church. In 1978 the church, which still had a loyal congregation, celebrated its bicentennial. This year, according to Walter Kilby, the chairman of the financial committee, “has been an extremely busy and eventful year for our congregation.” During the year a new addition has been constructed, which contains a nursery, restrooms, a kitchen, and a large social and Sunday School meeting room. Most of the labor and equipment used in the improvements, Mr. Kilby said, have been contributed by members of the church. “As a result,” he said, “we have grown closer as a congregation.” Mr. Kilby notes that, after being a part of the county’s history for more than 200 years, “we are fortunate in having many young families with children who will be our church family for many years to come.” After the Homecoming Service on Sunday morning, there wall be a covered dish supper. The public, Mr. Kilby said, is invited to join the church’s congregation in the celebration of the church’s anniversary and its building program.

SEPTEMBER 15.1988 Editorial Sights on slob hunters The ordinance passed this month by the Board of Supervisors, which sets penalties for hunters convicted of violating the county’s road hunting law, was timely passed. Road hunting is a problem which has plagued Rappahannock County for years. Coupled with our many long, lonely stretches of dirt roads is our unfortunate location at the dividing line between eastern and western deer hunting areas. With counties in the Shenandoah Valley having a far shorter season, the lure of open hunting just across the ridges is, apparently, a difficult one to resist. But now, those slob hunters who clog the county’s ba^k roads, driving at slow speeds with rifles between their legs and cartridge clips near at hand, have fair warning of the* consequences of their actions: a fine of up to $500 and/or up to six months in jail. It is an ordinance revision long overdue. Those individuals, those “hunters,” who insist in pursuing their socalled “sport” can now take the consequences when caught. We’re also glad to hear that Sheriff John Henry Woodward plans to continue his policy, instituted last year, of assigning one deputy to full-time investigation of hunting complaints. He is a valuable extra hand for the county’s game warden. And, with the extra help, and the assistance of tough penalties for illegal hunters, the deputies and wardens can set off for the hunting season knowing that they are well-armed. We wish them good hunting. Sen. Quayle to speak at Atoka Supper Sept. 17 Senator J. Danforth Quayle (RInd.), Republican candidate for Vice President of the United States, will be the guest of honor at the 12th annual Atoka Country Supper, to be held Saturday, Sept. 17, from 2 to 6 p.m. at Atoka Farm, home of Senator John W. Warner (R-Va.) near Middleburg. To help kick off the fall campaign season for Virginia Republicans, Senator Quayle will address a crowd expected to number several thousand at the old-fashioned picnic supper which has become the largest annual GOP event in the Commonwealth. Other guests will include Senator Paul S. Trible, Jr. (R-Va.) and Republican Congressmen D. French Slaughter Jr.m (7th-Va.), Stanford E. Parris (8th-Va.) jpid Frank R. Wolf (10th-Va.). Senatorial candidate Maurice Dawkins and a host of other Virginia Republican candidates will also participate. Sen. Quayle served two terms in the U. S. House of Representatives before his election to the Senate in 1980. He is currently a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Budget Committee and Labor and Human Resources Committee. In addition to the political rally that is the highlight of the Atoka Country supper, the event includes an afternoon of bluegrass music, a country auction and a country-style barbecue chicken dinner. The supper is sponsored by the Virginia Federation of Republican women and is organized by members of the 25 Republican women’s clubs of Virginia’s 7th, 8th, and 10th congressional districts. Tickets are $35 per person and may be obtained by calling Helen Neese (7th District) at 740-3738, Lois Howe (8th District) at 378-7731 or Ruby Griffin (10th District) at 573-2516. The rain date for the event is Sunday, Sept. 18. Senior discount program seeks business help Retired Senior Volunteer Program volunteers from the Rappahannock- Rapidan Community Services Center will solicit area merchants and businesses between Sept. 1 and Qct. 7, to enroll them in the Senior Citizen Discount Program. This program, a part of the comprehensive services to senior citizens offered by the center, is designed to facilitate and promote sensitivity and supportiveness between businesses and older residents of Rappahannock, Culpeper, Fauquier, Madison and Orange counties. Participating businesses will receive a red-and-white Senior Citizen Discount Program sticker to place in their window or on their door, and will be listed in the Voice of Experience, which reaches more than 3,500 households in the Planning District. Sallie Stemple Morgan, Aging Services Coordinator says that the discount program serves to “help the older person to manage more sue cessfully on a fixed income” while providing local merchants and businesses with “increased business, a feeling of satisfaction in helping the elderly, plus beneficial promotional tactics.” Seniors can receive a Senior Discount ID Card to validate their eligibility for this program, and will at the same time be given a list of participating businesses throughout the five counties. Merchants who are already offering such discounts on their own are encouraged to enroll, so that they will be included an the listing. There is no charge to the merchants or businesses for this service. Seniors receiving Senior Discount Cards are asked to make a $2 donation to defray costs. Residents of Rappahannock, Culpeper, Fauquier, Madison and Orange counties and businesses or merchants wishing to learn more about this program can call the center at 825-3100. Commentary Rappahannock News photo/Cindy Mahan Rappahannock Heritage \ PHOTOGRAM, made by laying wildflowers directly on photographic paper and exposing it to light. Letters to the editor 'Contrary to claims ...'? To the editor: Contrary to claims by the Rappahannock News the Virginia Department of Transportation did order a halt to the dissemination of value engineering studies. The “Friends of Old 211” have delivered to the Rappahannock Neu'x a copy of the VDOT interoffice memorandum, the existence of which was unequivocally denied by the county newspaper in a lead article, Sept. 1, on page one. Word of this memorandum, which prohibits release to the general public of highway project value engineering studies, first reached the paper through “Friends of Old 211.” A reporter from the paper then contacted Mr. Ken Phillips, the assistant location and design engineer at the Department of Transportation’s Richmond headquarters. Mr. Phillips never did come right out and say that the memo did not exist. Rather, he got around the issue with remarks such as: “I certainly would have seen it,” and (if there were such a memo) “it would have been generated by the Attorney Generals’ office.” iNot surprisingly, me Attorney General’s office appeared to have no knowledge of any VDOT memo concerning a ban on the dissemination of value engineering studies. The Attorney General is not included on the distribution list for the memo, a list, by the way, of 45 high-ranking employees of the Virginia Dept, of Transportation. Mr. Ken Phillips is not on the list, either. The Rappahannock News, faced with an affirmative statement from the “Friends of Old 211,” and with nothing more than evasive comments from one VDOT employee and honest ignorance of the matter on the part of the Attorney General’s office, chose to take the position that the Virginia Dept, of Transportation had not issued an interoffice memorandum prohibiting the dissemination of value engineering studies. Dismissing the report from “Friends of Old 211” as a mere “claim,” and elevating Mr. Phillips’ shaky inferences to the status of irrefutable evidence, the paper took the plunge from objective to partisan reporting. We expect, and generally get, better than that from the Rappahannock News. The Value Engineering Study of particular interest to “Friends of Old 211” is the one which concludes that the expense of four-laning Rt. 211 between Washington and Sperry ville is not justified either by traffic volume or by the existing roadway’s safety record. The study recommends, as the preferred alternative, widening the existing pavement to 24 ft. and the shoulders to eight feet in cut areas and to 11 feet where fill is required. The existence of this study was not revealed by VDOT to the public, either before or during the “Location & Design Public Hearing” held at the elementary school on July 21, despite the study’s recommendation (on page 18) that: “The Dist. Engr., Mr. T.F. Farley, & Mr. F.E. James should consider that the widening of exist, pavement, etc. concept should be a viable component of the upcoming L. & D. public hearing.” Shortly after the hearing, we obtained a copy of the Value Engineering Study, only to be told by VDOT that it amounted to nothing more than an academic exercise for the training of VDOT personnel. Immediately, we telephoned as many members of the Value Engineering Team as we could reach, and, to a man, they seemed surprised, even angry, when told that their work had been described to use as a mere training exercise. But, by Aug. 16, 26 days after the public hearing, when interrogated by the Rappahannock News, the Value Engineering crew had their story straight: Yes, they had been students. The project had been part of a course “to instruct us on the principals of value engineering,” said the team leader, a 27-year veteran with the Department of Transportation. Questions by the reporter concerning the recommendations and conclusions of the “academic exercise” evoked some rather comical back-pedaling on the part of the poor engineer who found himself, I suspect, very much “on the spot.” It’s all in the Rappahannock News, Sept. 1. VDOT justifies the top secret classification now accorded value engineering studies by saying that they contain “preliminary bid and contract information which is protected under Section 2.1342(B)15 of the Code of Virginia.” This does not hold water, partly because section “2.1342(B)15” has nothing to do with this sort of thing (pertaining, instead, to “vendor proprietary software”), and because whatever information there is in any publicly accessible document is available to anyone, contractor or otherwise, who wants it, and could not, therefore, provide any one bidder with an advantage over another, which is what the preceding section of the Virginia Code 2.1-342(b)14, is concerned with. Beyond that, I read the value engineering study in question “from cover to cover,” and I did not see any mention of specific bids or contracts. The estimated costs of such projects usually appear in all the papers. I leave it to readers of the Rappahannock News to unravel all of this. A highly confidential scholastic exercise, on the face of it. Why the secrecy, all of a sudden? To protect the incompetent? Or might it be that the conclusions of capable and experienced engineers do not always match the political expedient? JOHN CADWALADER JR. Woodville Editor's note: At the time the article Mr. Cadawalader refers to (“Engineers refute charges by opponents,” RN, Sept. 1) was published, the only information in the hands of this newspaper was an unsubstantiated verbal allegation by an individual who requested anonymity, that such a memo existed. The source refused, during the course of a conversation at that time, to reveal where the memo had come from.. Although this newspaper generally declines to investigate information from people who refuse to go “on the record,’’ a judgment was made that the charge was sufficiently serious to warrant investigation. That investigation indicated, after telephone calls to several individuals (including one specifically recommended by the anonymous source) that no such memo had been issued. At that time, the facts were that allegations had been made by an anonymous source. Those allegations were refuted by several individuals who agreed to be quoted, by name, in the article. Last week, a copy of the memo was delivered to the editor’s home, and a story about the memo appears in this week’s paper — also on page one. The Rappahannock News made no “claims'’ for or against the information — it merely reported the results of the investigation made as a result of allegations made by the Friends of Old Route 211. The “unequivocal denial” came from a highway department official, not from the Rappahannock News. Innocent, but punished To the editor: I have considered writing this letter for months and now, when I picked up the Rappahannock blew* issue dated 9-8-88, I felt that I miist. On the front page I saw a scenic picture depicting the Washington town monument having been beautified. Around the monument were four men, “the landscaping crew.” 1 felt sick. One of the men pictured was Harold Brown, who is a-convicted murderer: convicted of killing my uncle at his home in Sperryville and currently serving his sentence here in Rappahannock. . Why he is here instead of in .the penitentiary is a matter of public record. It was at the specific request of our sheriff, John Henry Woodward. The reasons I received from Mr. Woodward were that Harold Brown was skilled with his hands, that he felt he could serve the county by fixing things. I was also assured, he would not be allowed out of the courthouse square without a deputy in attendance. I work in the town of Was tririgton. I have committed no crime and yet I reel punished. When I walk cut of my office I look first. 1 don’t ytant to see this man. I don’t feel I should have to, at least not until the sen tence the court placed on hint is served. I have been on my way to. the post office and met him on the sidewalk alone. I’ve had business in, tjie county offices and I had to wait unf.il he finished sweeping the walk before I felt that I could proceed. I think that to plant flowers, dig holes or even to sweep doesn’t require a special talent held only by Harold Brown. A person with, a lesser conviction, not murder, cpuld do the same things. Now I pick up the local paper «yid there he is, on the front page, beautifying the town. I realize this is not going to solve my problem. I just felt that the pepple of Rappahannock should know this man is here and why. The memory of A.W. Timmons, who was<a good and decent man, is being desperated by having this man here. - I have heard no satisfactory reasf|ts given for why there was a specific request to have Harold Brown Return here to serve his sentence There is nothing I can do about this situation except write this letter, and I would like to dedicate this to memory of A.W.

Hoyer has jirieated two bodies of work that ap^tf>6ar to be distinctly separate: first, -'jt series of big, bold assemblies of -jhells, stones, and fertility figures '•arranged mosaic-like, then con”<f»led with either black or white 2-{»int; second, a collection of small ^paintings with brilliant hues and • .decorative borders. But the second v^t: actually the first. The paintings vale black-and-white photographs of 'we bigger pieces, reinterpreted by >Hoyer with colored pencils and oils. “I want to see how many times a Cjjfeation can move, how many things Coin be done with one object,” Hoyer «Mfld, explaining the inspiration for Hfljjs solo show. £*> The seeds for “From a Hiding -Place” were planted last year in 0^rst Fruits: A Contemporary Ritan innovative collaboration been Hoyer and choreographer y Nash. Hoyer wanted a ritual to i$eonsecrate” the baskets he weaves. 'She took the baskets, and holding <£fiem, found new ways for herself flgd the dancers in her Last Minute • Wood Company to move. -Hoyer watched the dance, and Nfent back to his Linden studio to fashion jewelery for the dancers to wear, fetishes for them to carry, and sectional screens of shell and stone mosaic as backdrops for the dance. Those objects, in turn, subtly in fluenced the movements of the dancers. “She had already takers my work and interpreted it through dance,” he noted. And Hoyer has scores of black-and-white photographs of that performance. He had been thinking ' “about doing something with them, putting the art created in that collaboration through yet another metamorphosis. “1 started playing Tuth them, the still images of the dance.” He blew them up, painted backgrounds, painted the baskets in jthe foreground, textured the paint W that portions of the image stood out three dimensionally. “I was bringing it all back, reinterpreting those movements. I was so excited by the results that I threw out everything else I was working on for this show, except the baskets, and I concentrated on reinterpretations. So basically, everything here comes after Aug. 1.” What is being reinterpreted in “From a Hiding Place” is Hoyer’s personalized version of the mandala, symbols used for meditation by fol■ lowers of Eastern religions and phi. losophies. His are of stone and , 'Sbashells arranged on papermache in intricate variations of wheels, circles, and triangles, the traditional patterns for meditation. The big mo. saics, constructed in three foot squares, are decorated with fertility symbols inspired by a 2,500 year old goddess figure, the Venus of Willendorf. i As a child, Hoyer had a private cubby-hole. "It was just a crawl space through the closet wall of my bedroom, very small and very dark. According to the Hagerstown . Almanack ’ No need for tornado watch in the area this month with nuyor activity centered in the lower midwest and upper plains states. The autumnal equinox brings ' summer to an end on the 22nd at 2:29 pith, as the sun enters the house of Libra and Autumn commences. Full moon, this year’s harvest' -moon, rises on the 25th at 2:07 p.m. Though the days are getting notice'ably shorter, there’s still plenty of day or “moon” light to wind up outdoor activities. In the garden it’s time to start putting things to bed for the coming fall and winter. Clean up dead plant material and put it to good use by “recycling” via the compost pile route. ■ Now is also a good time to take a good look around the home and de‘ termine what articles are salvageable through “recycling” or what 1 should be discarded. Try to Cut down v^/the amount and volume of trash. Don’t toss away your future - recycle! Observe Constitution Day, September 17th, as we being the second year of the second century under the “Words We Live By.” J. Gruber’s Thought For Today’s [Living: [\ > The wise man often says little while observing much; the fool ob- . serves little while talking a lot. It was where I thought I would ride out the nuclear holocaust. I’d take food with me into the hole, and stacks of magazines, like National Geographic, and art books, anything with pictures. With a flashlight I discovered the world,” he recalled. “The Venus of Willendorf was the first image I remember seeing every time I opened one of my books. She was God.” But Hoyer found the mandalas “just too pretty” in the natural, muted shades of turquoise, jasper, agate, slate, and obsidian. And as he set about reinterpreting the mandalas by painting the black-and-white photographs he’d taken of them, he found himself referring too often to the originals. “I had to either get rid of them or cover them up.” So he masked them with paint, half of the pieces with black and half in white. The result is a stark contrast of opposites, reflective of the two sides - the light and the dark - of human nature. This treatment also brings into sharp focus the remarkable texture of Moyer’s mosaic pieces and the shape of the flowing designs. And again, as with his ritual baskets and votive implements - horsetail wisks, dance sticks, and clubs - there is an impression of antiquity. These mandates look as if they could have been fashioned for ancient African fertility rites rather than by an artist working in 1988 at his Blue Ridge Mountain studio near Linden. And with the shells and stones in a hiding place under the masking paint, the smaller, transformed images became reinterpretations - not reproductions - as Hoyer’s memory sharpened and shifted the colors. Through the reinterpretive process, what first was very African and primitive now looks Moorish and more sophisticated, the trip from memory to painted print changing Hoyer’s creations in much the same way as the immigration to Spain subtly influenced the art of the peoples of northwestern Africa. The dual exhibit of mandalas and mandala-descendent8 is Hoyer’s ex ploration of “infinite possibilities.” “I want to continue my creation to see how many transitions the objects can go through, either in reinterpretation by myself or by other artists,” Hoyer explained. And this rebirth isn’t restricted to a like medium. With “First Fruits,” the reinterpretation went from fine art to dance to fine art to dance. Another of the baskets made for “First Fruits” made the transformation to music. A composer friend of Hoyer’s uses a Kurzweil, a keyboard sound sampler similar to a synthesizer but with recordings of the actual notes made by actual instruments or sung by real voices. “So he has an orchestra at his fingertips when he composes,” the artist explained. The friend took one of the sound baskets used in last year’s performance, and shaking it, recorded the sound for his Kurzweil sampler. Now that musical reinterpretation of Hoyer’s woven basketry art can be woven with violins and cellos into yet another composition. This process goes on . . . and on. The colored prints are not yet the final version of the mandalas. “A friend wants to take close-up shots of sections and use the mosaic patterns as a background for a video,” Hoyer reported, adding that he will continue to work with the possibilities of recycling art. “I love the transitions these objects go through, whether by me and my interpretations, as in photographs, or by others in performance, music, and dance. I create an object and put it down and someone else can come along and carry it into another realm. That transformation is important. It’sreneweal.” Joel Hoyer's mixed media work, which also includes sealed fetish baskets, will be displayed at the Middle St. Gallery in Washington through the month of September.

I know of husbands and wives who prayed together regularly and sincerely, but their marriages ended in divorce. They tried everything they knew, but nothing worked for them. Yet. the old adage has merit if we dare explore its depths. Perhaps hidden deep in the old saying's soul is further meaning: People who pray together CHANGE together; and, people who CHANGE together STAY together. If we believed that “prayer changes things" (especially by changing people who change things), then it stands to reason that married couples change. And if they do not change together, they ultimately go in different directions. Changes come. It is not the changes that devastate persons or marriages, but rather the way they deal with them. Begin by praying together before you go to your church or synagogue this week; and, openly—in prayer together at home—face the changes of life; and change together. CopyngN IMS.

Warren Co. band seeking new members The Front Royal-Warren County Community Band went back to weekly rehearsals this week to prepare for concerts during the fall season. Performances are tentatively scheduled for the Festival of Leaves in October and for the White Post celebration the following week. New music has been authorized by the sponsors, The Giles B. Cook Post of the American Legion. Music for the Christmas concert is on order and should be available next week. Rehearsals are scheduled weekly for Tuesday evenings from 7:30-9 p.m. in the Randolph Macon Academy band room at the school. All past members of the community Band are urged to attend the rehearsals. New members for the group are being actively encouraged to come join with the 40-50 members who played the past season. John Russell and Ed Richards, co-directors, stress the fact that practically all of the present organization had to recover long unused instruments, dust them off and get back into playing once again. Community support has increased over the past two concert seasons as shown by the increasing size of audiences at the performances. Conservative estimates of attendance over the past year would put the combined audiences at about 5,000 people, many of whom haye hardly missed a single concert. Interested prospective members can get additional information by calling John Russell at 636-9432 pr Ed Richards at 636-6081.

Beans add big taste for small bucks BY SANDRA RICHARDSON Extension Agent. Home Economies It’s no small wonder that thrifty canned beans continue to maintain high popularity among consumers. They can serve as low-fat, proteinrich alternatives to meat or stand on their own. In addition to protein, they serve as good sources of B vitamins (including niacin, thiamine. Bti. and folacin), potassium, and iron. Year-round canned beans are a bargain for homemakers. Frequently they are on weekend specials, lending themselves still further to thrift. Technically, pork and beans are not baked beans at all. Yet most homemakers not only think of them that way but consider them tops in this category. Beans are packed in rich tomato sauce with pork, then pressure-cooked right in the can to develop their characteristic flavor. Because they are mild, they lend themselves to many flavor build-ups — onion, herbs or spices, syrups or molasses, meat, fruit, vegetable pickles or pickle relish. • Baked beans. Their name tells the story. Pea beans blended with a a brown sugar sauce, spices and pork, then baked and packed into glass jars, cans or bean pots. Depending on the brand, the label may simply read “baked” or “brick-oven baked" or “New England baked.” Flavor tip: Products marked “Boston” or “New England” usually contain brown sugar or molasses. • Beans with meat. These are main-dish hearties. Some brands are a triple treat of big pea beans, pink beans and baby limas; all feature ground beef, franks or Vienna sausages and a flavorful sauce. • Vegetarian beans. Here’s the dependable for cooks who prefer to add their own dress-ups. Seasonings are similar to those for pork and beans, but without the meat. • Barbecue beans. You'll find some with meat and others strictly vegetable. Those who prefer a smoky flavor can find their favorite, too. • Mexican-style beans. With their chili-like flavor they make a timesaving starter for many casseroles or supper dishes to which you add meat. • Kidney beans. Look for two styles: One with pork and tomatoes; the other, a spicy sauce without tomatoes. Most labels list both can size and weight or cup measures so you can easily figure howr much you need for a meal. It’s a smart homemaking practice to keep several can sizes on the cupboard shelf, then choose one to fit the need. For example, an eight-ounce can is just right for a lunch box or noon meal for one person. The 14- to 16-ounce size is one of the most popular sizes. It will take care of the vegetable course for an average family. For hearty appetites and second helpings, you’ll want to look for the larger 21-to 32ounce cans of beans. When quantity dishes are in order for church or club parties, 40- to 52-ounce cans are handiest. However, not all of these sizes are likely to be available in every supermarket.

Another pennysaving note to keep in mind: the larger the can, the less the cost per serving. Varieties with special sauces or meats will naturally be higher-priced, but a point to remember is that the fixing and fancy touches are built in to save you, the consumer, both time and trouble. The following recipes offer a variety of ideas using canned beans if you find yourself too busy to start from scratch for a special family creation.

School Young children need eye exams Many preschool-aged children have undetected vision problems. This is why the Virginia Affiliate of the National Society to Prevent Blindness is emphasizing the need for parents to schedule a professional eye exam for their preschoolaged children. “Parents should be aware that some forms of childhood eye problems, such as amblyopia or ‘Lazy Eye can virtually steal a child's sight if not diagnosed and treated before the age of six,” says Frank Carlomagno, Executive Director of the Virginia Affiliate. The National Society to Prevent Blindness estimates that as many as 10,400 preschool-aged children in Virginia have some sort of vision problem, and a significant percentage of those cases ia undiagnosed. According to Mr. Carlomagno, “Amblyopia is a robber of sight and the most common cause of uncorrected visual problems in young children.” It affects two to four percent of all American children — most often between three and five years of age, when they are too young to realize what they should be able to see. What an amblyopic child does see is a normal world through one eye and a blurred world through the other. Amblyopia accompanies a number of other vision disorders such as crossed eyes or nearsightedness. which causes the eyes to see with different degrees of clarity. The brain accepts the clear image" and suppresses the distorted view, with the result that one eye is not stimulated to develop properly. Children with misaligned eyes have the best chance of early detec tion because their primary problem is so obvious that parents seek medical help. However, children with focusing problems that can lead to amblyopia may go undetected for years. By the time the problem is discovered, it may be too late for effective treatment. Vision screening of the central distance visual acuity for children can be a valuable tool in the detection of potential eye problems. Finding a difference in vision between the two eyes that is not caused by other ailments can alert parents to seek medical attention for their child at a young age. According to Mr. Carlomagno, “The Virginia Affiliate-NSPB has trained more than 500 volunteers throughout the state to conduct vision screenings of young children. During 1986-87 Society volunteers screened more than 21,000 children. Through their efforts, many potential vision problems have been detected early enough for effective treatment. These screening are not diagnostic. Parents are encouraged to take their children for regular professional eye exams, especially before they enter school.” Parents should be on the lookout for certain behavioral signs which may indicate a child is having difficulty with their vision. A child may have a vision problem if they: • Rub eyes excessively. • Shut or cover one eye, tilts head or thrusts head • Has difficulty in reading or in other work requiring close use of the eyes. • Blinks more than usual or is irritable when doing close work. • Is unable to see distant things clearly. • Squints eyelids together or frowns. Mr. Carlomagno concluded, “If untreated, amblyopia can lead to blindness in the affected eye. If the situation is detected early enough though, it can usually be treated and corrected. Children don’t know what they should see, only what they can.” Is your child seeing as well as he should?

From lef‘' ^ BnggS' °ina Fle,Cher' BenJi Ro*' ChCT>' | CADRE passes one-year review By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer The Citizens’ Alliance for Drug Rehabilitation and Education, which is attempting to establish a grassroots organization to fight substance abuse in the Commonwealth, has had a successful first year. That was the report from Assistant Attorney General John West during a meeting with Rappahannock’s CADRE chapter at the high school last Thursday. Mr. West visited the school as part of CADRE’s fall campaign kickoff, offering the services of the eight state agencies involved in the alliance to the local organizations — and supplying moral support for their effort as well. Mr. West told a group of students, teachers and a representative from the school board that the pro gram has received the ultimate stamp of approval: nearly 20 other states are requesting assistance with starting a similar effort. And recently, he said, Virginia Attorney General Mary Sue Terry presented the CADRE program to the National Council of Attorney Generals’ Innovations Committee. That group chose CADRE as one of eight state government programs to be recognized nationwide for its success, and to be suggested to other states for implementation. Ms. Terry has also travelled to Oklahoma to kick off that state’s program, he said. “We see the local CADRE as the most important part of the whole network . . . the local level is where it really must succeed,” Mr. West told the chapter’s steering committee. “This state agency doesn’t want to dictate to you — we want you to Canning Supplies SALE Golden Harvest Canning Jars Reg.

Then, you can ask us for help in addressing those needs.” Chapter advisor Beth Briggs told the group that she was “really pleased” about the revisions to the school district’s drug and alcohol policies. She noted that police and juvenile authorities will be contacted when drugs or alcohol are found on school property, and that warrants or juvenile petitions will be sought. “The board has taken a much firmer stance, including an automatic suspension when drugs or alcohol are found. Last year the authorities were called, but warrants were not sought in all cases. ” Ms. Briggs added that the CADRE program is a way that adults and teachers, “can solicit the kids to help kids on drugs to help memseives. Mr. West stressed the importance of student involvement. He added, “I’m particularly glad to see the students involved here,” as he addressed the three student representatives present. “They sometimes get left out.” Often, Mr. West quickly noted, the students are the ones who are most likely to say what they really think about an idea. That was quickly confirmed, as Gina Fletcher reacted to the packets passed out by Mr. West. The large, white envelope announces in bold black letters, “Inside this envelope is a way we can all stick together in the fight against drugs.” Inside the envelope is a bright red bumper sticker which reads, in white letters, “It’s about time parents became the pushers. CADRE” Miss Fletcher recounted the reaction her mother had to CADRE’s new slogan: that she didn’t much care for the idea of that slogan being on her car. “It certainly makes you think,” STATE GRADE FAT CATTLE 1*t.

Getting children involved with constructive activities is the surest way to keep them away from drugs, he said. “We’ve had some questionable reactions to the stickers,” Mr. West • acknowledged, “but we try to then ! clarify: pushers of positive activ- 1 ities.” ; The new slogan and advertising J has been picked up by the media, « Mr. West explained, with “hundreds ! of thousands of dollars worth of air- ! time” donated to spread CADRE’s j message. The Virginia Press Asso- j ciation has also agreed to urge its J member newspapers to donate ad- | vertising space to run CADRE’s j print adds, and free inserts con- j taining the envelope and the bumper sticker are being ordered by the thousands by the state’s newspa- j pers, Mr. West said. j The Outdoor Advertising Council i has agreed to donate 200 billboards ! across the state to display CADRE’s j message, along with a toll-free tele- j phone to call for more information. That telephone call will result, also, in information about the caller’s local CADRE chapter, along with a number for them to contact to get in- i volved. Right now, 105 of the state’s 1 134 school divisions have CADRE ! chapters. Mr. West said he hopes to J have chapters in every district by year’s end. Another goal of the program, * Mr. West said, is to develop and dis-'*' tribute confidential questionaires j across the state. Right now, there is " little hard data on the extent of the drug problem in Virginia, its demo- , graphics or breakdown by area. ^ “The Governor’s Council on Alcohol . and Substance Abuse is taking this , very seriously,” he told the group. I “We are trying to get a baseline survey done, so that we can go back in ‘ five years and ask, ‘Has CADRE’s . educational effort had any effect?’ ” Ms. Briggs said that the local ' chapter is working on several public education efforts, including one during October. She said that the group’s next meeting will be Wednesday, Sept. 21, at 7:110 p.m. in * the high school library. “Any inter- 4ested members of the public are in- • vited to attend,” she said. h1 .1 American Heart Association WE’RE FIGHTING FOR VOUR LIFE I

Hawks migrate at Wintergreen Observing thousands of hawks make their annual journey to the southern United States and South America will be the focus of the Fall Flight of the Raptors weekend beginning Friday, Sept. 16 at Wintergreen, Southwest of Charlottesville in Nelson County. Because of its location, Wintergreen serves as a funnel that these birds pass through on the way south. The weekend will feature some of the East Coast’s best known raptor photographers as well as prominent field trip guides. The instructor list includes Michael Smith, a leading osprey photographer, Ed Clarke of the Virginia Wildlife Center and Mitchell Byrd, leader of the Department of Interior’s Bald Eagle Recovery Team. In addition, Paul Saunier and Allen Hale of the Virginia Society of Ornithology will demonstrate in the field their technique of attracting hawks within camera range. Prevailing winds come from the west at Wintergreen and as these winds hit the mountain range, they create updrafts. The warmth from a sunny mid-September day combined with rising columns of air and a northwest wind also provide lift and thrust for these birds of prey. That combined with the fact that the Blue Ridge is only one ridge wide in this area, and the Wintergreen area becomes the funnel that these birds pass through. Timing is critical in an event of this type and mid-September is considered the peak time for an annual wave of Broadwing Hawks that come through the central Virginia Blue Ridge. Registration is $35 per person and includes all weekend related events.

Day realtor * v “CAVEAT EMPTOR”?—NOT TODAY If you buy an old overcoat in a used clothing store and the sales slips states “Sold As-!s“, you’ve bought it moth holes and all, right? Well, maybe, this legal principle of “caveat emptor” (let the buyer beware) is dead or dying. We are living in an age of consumerism and it’s hard to find a court that won’t favor the buyer in a dispute. In fact, consumer groups and, many government agencies are taking the posture that the seller must disclose everything. If you have a problem in your home, don’t mask it. A common example is the homeowner who spray Real Estate paints a ceiling to cover water stains caused by a leaking roof. If you have a problem that you don't intend to correct, be candid about it. Sure, some people will be turned off by it, but the serious buyer will be understanding about a problem openly displayed. Usually, they will discount the price by far less than the cost of repair...and a whole lot less than a day in court would cost. If there is anything we can do to help you in the field of real estate please stop in at EILEEN M. DAY, Realtor, The Clopton House, Washington, Va. 22747. Phone 6753003. We’re here to help. No fee is necessary for the speakers’ services. However, organizations are asked to cover the speaker’s travel expenses, Ms. Crockett said. Brochures listing the speakers and speech topics are available from the JMU Speakers Bureau, Public Information Office, James Madison University, Harrisonburg, Va. 22807.

Rappahannock Journal Silo gas a common danger BY TOMMY WILLIAMS Agricultural Extension Agent Silo gas is a common occurrence in com silage fermentation. Nitrogen gas is the predominant gas in silo gas and it can be formed within two hours after com is placed in an upright silo. This gas may last for as long as three weeks. Depending on the concentration of nitrogen dioxide, the presence of the gas will be recognized by a burning sensation in the nose, throat, and chest. When inhaled, the gas can cause extensive lung damage. Exposure to heavy concentration can result in death in seconds. Any throat irritation or coughing could signal the presence of silo gas. Silo gas can be visible as a yellowish-brown gas with an odor like bleach. Nitrogen dioxide is heavier than air and will tend to settle on top of the silage which if often stained or discolored as a result of the gas formation. If an escape route is provided, such as an open silo door, the gas will flow down the silo chute to the base of the silo. If allowed to settle there, a dangerous situation will result. Take the necessary precautions to avoid problems: •Do not enter the silo for three or four days after filling without ventilating the silo first. This is done by running the blower for at least 20 minutes. This precaution should be taken no matter how long the silage has been stored. •The silo chute door closest to the level of the silage should be open. This allows the gas to escape when the blower is running. Silo feed rooms should be ventilated by use of windows and fans. •Never enter a silo without someone on the outside to assist you. Wear an approved self-contained breathing apparatus and attach a life-long to someone outside. •Dead birds and dead flies at the base of the silo or under enclosed chutes can indicate silo gas. For more information on silo gas and silo safety, contact Tommy Williams at the Rappahannock extension Office (675-3619). This would also be a good time to inventory your winter feed supply. Send a sample of your hay to V.P.I. for analysis. This information will help in lowering the expense of feed supplementation this winter. The Extension Office can provide information about testing.

Forest management plans available BY BUCK KLINE Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Proper management of one’s forest can be trying at times. This is especially true for a new landowner or someone that has never sold timber before. The confusion is not hard to understand when you consider the many harvest options available and the larger number of different tree species, with each having different growth requirements. Should the stand of timber be left to grow? Should it be clearcut and reforested or clearcut and allowed to regenerate naturally? Should the timber be marked for harvest or can the diameter limit method of harvest be used? Also, certain tree species will reproduce better when using one harvest method over another. Remember, not all trees are considered valuable. Some are considered “weeds of the forest" just like some plants in the vegetable garden are weeds. Therefore, a harvest method or management practice should be chosen that will favor the establishment of the desirable tree species. Personal consideration such as aesthetics, recreation, and wildlife also influence how the timber stand is managed. How can a landowner find the answers to these sometimes difficult questions? For starters, call the Department of Forestry and have a comprehensive Forest Management Plan (FMP) developed. These plans are developed for private land-owners on request at no cost. In preparing the FMP, we will inventory the timber to determine age, merchantability, species composition, and growth rate. The FMP can then be used by the landowner to determine timber maturity, harvest dates and methods, forest management practices needed, and the proper procedures for making a timber sale. The plan can be a valuable tool in managing the forest resource on your property both now and in the future. Considering the potential impact of gypsy moth in the county, this could be important. If you would like to have your timberland examined and a Forest Management Plan developed, please feel free to call on the Department of Forestry. We can be contacted by calling 948-5341 or by writing to Department of Forestry, P.O. Box 148, Madison, VA 22727.'

He noted, however, that in places where fence rows are piled with honeysuckle, the dense vines muffle the noise of school buses and block the view of the road. A hunter 100 yards from the road may shoot at a deer between him and the road not knowing that a bus is passing and an errant bullet may hit the bus, Mr. Johnson warned, adding that the potential for this kind of accident is eliminated if the hunter is standing at the fence row. In addition, he said, “if I’m hunting on my property and I own the road — the state just has a right-ofway — and I’m on my property and the game warden fines me (for hunt ing within 100 yards of the road), I would take offense to that.” “I agree with Mr. Johnson,” seconded John Early. “If you’re near the road and shooting away from it, it’s safer than being 100 yards away and shooting towards the road." Supervisor Hubert Gilkey conceded Mr. Johnson's point: “I would much rather see somebody shooting towards the mountain than back towards the highway.” But he contended that the ordinance is a necessary tool designed specifically for controlling road hunting. As to Mr. Johnson’s second concern, the board’s chairman maintained that neither the county game warden nor the sheriffs deputies are likely to give a ticket to those hunting on their own land. If a fence row blocks sight of what’s behind it, then a hunter shouldn’t be shooting towards it anyway, added Supervisor Mike Massie. “If you don’t know what's behind what you’re shooting, then you shouldn’t shoot!” “An awful lot of folks are coming out from the cities in their pickup trucks, just looking for targets of opportunity,” said Supervisor Ellis Bingham. “That has to be curtailed.” If something isn’t done now to stop hunting abuses, more stringent measures — such as gun control laws — may be demanded later by an outraged public, noted Supervi-4 sor Nelson Lane. While conceding that the ordinance under consideration was neither a total nor a perfect answer, he added, “I’d rather give the wardens a tool [to combat road hunting], even if it’s an imperfect one.” In other action at the board’s monthly evening session for public hearings, the supervisors: • tabled action on a special excep-. tion permit from Rob Brown for multi-family housing in Sperryville’s flood plain zone. According to Piedmont District Supervisor Charles Estes, Mr. Brown has requested his application be withdrawn. (In August, the Board of Zoning Appeals denied Mr. Brown’s special use permit for a six-unit apartment on a one-third acre lot in the village.) • approved the abandonment of a subdivision road in Chester Gap. The road was dedicated as part of a small-lot subdivision of 24 parcels recorded prior to the adoption of the county’s land use laws. None of the lots, which are about one-third acre in size, have been built on or sold. Newbill Miller, contract purchaser for the entire subdivision, proposes to redraw boundary lines to make five lots, averatrinc 1.3 acres each, which complies with the minimum lot size of one acre in village residential zones. But to do so requires the vacation of the old subdivision road traversing the tract. After determining that the five new lots will have access to a state road or existing deeded right-of-way, the board unanimously endorsed Mr. Miller’s request. “Personally, I would rather see it done this way,” said Supervisor Gilkey, the Wakefield • District representative who lives in Chester Gap, noting that the small lots could have been combined to result in 12 building lots. “I think the net effect to the county is positive,” added Supervisor Lane. • tabled Joan Brown Doares’ special exception appplication for another 30 days. Mrs. Doares is seeking approval for a family transfer subdivision which was denied administratively on the grounds that earlier divisions from the parent parcel of record as of 1962 totaled five, the limit under the family transfer exception to density regulations. County administrator John McCarthy noted that a currently proposed ordinance amendment to allow a sixth cut providing specific 1 standards are satisfied would make Mrs. Doares’ application moot; that amendment will be acted upon within 30 days. flash W Into Cash.

Landfill Continued from page 1 the liner and into the groundwater. Mr. Bain said that, because of the contours of the land and the way that such subsurface water would flow, that there is no chance that leachate could find its way into surrounding wells or water supplies. Any leachate which does escape the liner and leachate collection system, Mr. Bain said, would flow downgrade and surface at the nearest creek or wet water spring area - both of which are on the landfill site. And, since the general contour of the land slopes toward the Rappahannock River, there is no way that leachate could flow uphill, toward the village of Amissville, Mr. Bain assured the supervisors. The concept Mr. Joyce described brought agreement from everyone except Col. Bingham, who expressed reservations about the mound and capping process necessary’ for an area fill. “What about the slopes,” he asked, "how do we keep it trimmed and mowed for 100 years?” “I tried to keep the same area we . had,” Mr. Joyce said, "The only difference was the finish grade” of three feet horizontal to one foot drop ■ in vertical elevation. “It is still acceptable (under state standards), and leaves you with a manageable product.” Col. Bingham asked Mr. Joyce if he had heard of a new ruling by the Environmental Protection. Agency, effective Sept. 1. that would require all landfills to be monitored 24 hours a day by computers, “not someone with a 4 1/2 inch hat and a 16 inch neck.” A report on the ruling appeared, he said, on Channel 4 last week. “Sampling mechanically is ludicrous," Supervisor Nelson Lane said. “I haven’t heard anything about it," Mr. Joyce replied. “I think we need to look into it," Col. Bingham said. "We don’t need to look into hearsay." Board Chairman Hubert Gilkey retorted. “If you come back with facts, then we’ll look into it.” Mr. Lane suggested that, in the best interests of the county’s taxpayers, that the area fill should be built to the 575 foot contour - or 15 feet above the existing highest elevation on the site. Given its location, he said, the extra elevation would not have any adverse effect on the scenic beauty of the area. "I don’t see why we shouldn’t use the space, operate it well, safely, and use the space wisely.” He also suggested that Mr. Joyce explore whether the state would allow some trenching to get even more life from the space. Mr. Lane also asked if the redesign would affect the leachate expected from the landfill. "The leachate system and the liner will all be built as in the original proposal. It is the same volume of waste, compacted the same way, (and) rain will fall the same. There shouldn’t be any difference in the leachate expected," Mr. Joyce said. “All things being equal,” Mr. Lane said, "we should go to 575 feet and extend the fill area closer to the road," which according to the design is ,:uu ieei away. "We want your best judgement,” Piedmont Supervisor Mike Massie said. "W’e want to do the best for the taxpayers, considering the enormous expense we have here.” "It’s likely that we can make acceptable modifications during the life of the landfill. This will be our drawing of record,” Mr. Joyce said, indicating his redesign showing an area fill. "We can file amendments later if we find that we can trench in some areas." Mr. Joyce noted that Mr. Bonine had requested backhoe excavations to confirm the seismic results reported by Mr. Scarlett. “That's a good idea," Mr. Scarlett agreed. “Backhoe excavation is more representative of what you’re going to find -also more representative of the techniques you are using in excavating for the landfill." By a 4-1 vote, with Col. Bingham opposed, the board directed Mr. Joyce to file the amended design with the Division of Waste Management, requesting approval of an area landfill. “You don’t think that it’s a good plan?” Mr. Massie asked following the vote. “I'm not having anything to do with it,” Col. Bingham replied. “I’m not in favor of going to 575 feet.” “Do you want to go through this again in 20 years,” Mr. Massie retorted. “I don’t.” Also at Tuesday’s meeting, the board unanimously approved Robert Brown’s special exception application for a multi-family dwelling in a floodplain zone. Mr. Brown is seeking approval to construct an apartment building on Main St. in Sperry ville. Mr. Massie, the board’s representative to the planning commission, which recommended denial of Mr. Brown’s application for a sixunit apartment building on a .3 acre parcel, asked for assurances that the approval requested “is not necessarily for a six-unit dwelling." Chairman Cilkev affirmed the distinction. “(Zoning Administrator John) McCarthy said that all criteria have been met for a multi-family dwelling . . . the floodplain criteria have been met. The planning commission recommended approval of this part” of Mr. Brown's application. The county’s Board of Zoning Appeals has already denied Mr. Brown’s application for a special exception for a six-unit building, citing its violation of density requirements. The BZA did, however, hold open the possibility of approval of a smaller building which would conform to the density provisions of the zoning ordinance. Memo Continued from page 1 her understanding that the six-year document is a plan of money available, “a financial estimate prepared by the Division of Planning — versus a more precise engineering estimate developed as the project gets closer." Ms. Sorrell admitted that, “I can't speak with authority as to how close that estimate (in the six-year plan) comes to the final figures developed by the Construction Division.” Secondly, Ms. Sorrell said that the general release and circulation of the reports, “is of concern — to the extent that they could be said to be complete and through analyses using value engineering techniques. . .[that] ideas and suggestions developed as part of training exercises by inexperienced people could be misconstrued as definitive alternatives to proposed projects.” “Primarily,” the management services chief said, “these were training projects where we train people in the appropriate use of value engineering, one of several techniques which the department uses in evaluating highway projects.” The Rt. 211 value engineering study was produced by a seven member team as part ot a week-long workshop in value engineering held in Fredericksburg in May, Ms. Sorrell said. The seminar was one of three or four held each year by the Management Services Division to acquaint highway department personnel with value engineering techniques, she said. The study was produced by “students training to use value engineering. They are not that experienced in the techniques." The team may include, she added, “maybe one or two people experienced with the standards and specifications of arterial highways.” The teams spend, typically, one or two days reviewing each project and submitting a value engineering report. Ms. Sorrell said that each project is subjected to the value engineering process during an early phase of planning, called the “scoping” process. That analysis, done by the Location and Design Division, involves “experienced" field engineers who spend considerable time — often several months, Ms. Sorrell said — “determining the scope of the work on the project.” In an analysis of alternatives, she added, value engineering techinques are among the tools used to define principles and the final scope of the project. “I am a little sensitive,” she said. Rezoning Continued from page 1 Actual zoning boundaries are established in the zoning ordinance, which sets the Hampton Inn as the western limit of the existing mini-commercial zone through the Flatwood section, he said. The plan’s mention of west of Washington to The Shade Road as the focal point of economic and public facilities activities “doesn’t mean all the properties in there must be zoned commercial.” But that designation does give the board the authority to approve commercial rezonings there without incurring a risk of challenge on the grounds of spot zoning, he said. But at the same time, the board must also consider the probable impact of such a rezoning on transportation facilities, Mr. McCarthy added. Asked for his opinion, former supervisor and planning commission Newbill Miller, who worked on the county’s original zoning and subdivision ordinances and comprehensive plan and the revised versions of all three which are now in effect, agreed with Supervisor Estes’s position. The intent of the governing bodies was to keep future commercial growth in the highway corridor running from Ginger Hill to The Shade Road, he affirmed. , "We directed where future growth would be, and this is where we said it would be!” Mr. Estes repeated. As to the zoning ordinance’s delineation of the existing commercial zone, “somebody may have drawn an arbitrary line at the Hampton Inn, but I can tell you that the intent was to plan future growth for the area between Ginger Hill and The Shade Road,” he said. “If you’re going to rezone (once the highway improvements are completed), then rezone the whole stretch from Ginger Hill to Mr. Henry’s property ... If that’s your intent, that should be your action,” the county administrator interjected. Mr. Estes balked at a wholesale commercial rezoning, saying that the farmers w'ho are continuing to farm land “right up to the commercial zone” shouldn’t be unduly burdened with the higher taxes which would result. “Leave it as it is and let it (the commercial district) grow' naturally,” he advised. And he acknowledged that he would vote in favor if another landowner along that stretch followed Mr. Henry’s example and sought a rezoning to commercial. “I don’t see how we could say no. We have no basis tdf say no. We have to live within the boundaries of the comprehensive plan ...

Shuman Builders, Inc. 150 James Madison Hwy., Culpeper, Va. 22701 Telephone: (703)825-5184 “to taking training exercises and saying they are definitive studies.” The value engineering program and workshops are under the direction of the Management Services Division, Ms. Sorrell said. Reports prepared by the study teams are submitted to her office before being distributed to the district engineer responsible for the project. The Rt. 211 study obtained by the Rappahannock News included a cover memo from Ms. Sorrell to Culpeper District Engineer Thomas F. Farley, dated May 18, requesting that he “review these recommendations for their implementation potential.” Mr. Farley was not available at the Culpeper District office on Tuesday. His secretary said that he was not expected back in the office until Thursday. According to Ken Phillips, the assistant location and design engineer at the department’s Richmond headquarters, the alternatives pro posed by the value engineering team were studied until it was determined that they were not feasible. During an interview Aug. 16, Mr. Phillips cited substandard sight distances along the existing roadway as the reason for rejecting the alternative proposal. He said that the rebuilding necessary to bring the road up to present-day standards would mean that virtually the entire 4.2 miles would have to be reconstructed, raising the price considerably from the $1.4 million estimated by the value engineering team. George Kirk, district engineer for the Federal Highway Administration’s District B, said in an interview in August that the value engineering study produced in May does not take into account that, under the Code of Virginia, Rt. 211 is part of the state’s arterial highway system. That designation, Mr. Kirk said, precludes the elimination of parallel laning in any improvement project planned for the highway. Hospice seeks volunteers “If you are a people-person with an extra hour or two each week, Hospice of the Rapidan needs you to assist the terminally ill with living. Volunteers provide respite care, . transportation, companionship, emotional and bereavement support as well as assisting with funeral preparations, obtaining eligible benefits from the Social Security Administration or Department of Social Services, and procurement of needed medical equipment,” said Tina Weaver, director of the Hospice. Volunteers do not provide nursing care. However, volunteers with a nursing background can often teach a family about the terminal illness and how to care for the patient. Many times, patients and their families request occasional visits needing someone to just listen. Volunteers and patients are matched for compatibility. One patient requested a Civil War buff as he was interested in this topic; a hospice Volunteer who too was a Civil War historian was assigned to this patient.
