Middle school seen as next capital need By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock News Staff Writer “If there’s no growth, then there’s no need for expansion. But if there’s growth, we need to plan for it,” maintained Superintendent David Gangel last week as he presented the School Board with a “capital expansion contingency plan” which proposes a $3.5 million middle school constructed within 10 years should the county’s growth rate reach five percent. “We want “to see where things are going so that we’re not entirely reacting but instead planning,” Dr. Gangel said. Chairman Beverly Massie noted that the look ahead comes at the Board of Supervisors’ request. “This is what we were asked to do in order for the county to have a better handle on long term projections for capital improvements ... I applaud them for it. I’m delighted to see a more orderly program being established,” said the veteran School Board member. Mrs. Massie was a member of the joint School Board/Board of Supervisors committee which first cited the need for a high school expansion and was also chairman of the 1988 board which saw an expansion project finally completed. In past years, capital expansion programs have too often been undertaken only “when push came to shove,” Mrs. Massie added. Enrollment is currently 575 at the Rappahannock County Elementary School and 370 at the high school, and Dr. Gangel put capacity at 661 for RCES and 500 for RCHS without alterations to the facilities. He pointed out that capacity for the two buildings has been steadily decreased by state-mandated reductions in class size:, particularly for kindergarten, first grade, English, and special education, and by new programs, such as this year’s remedial edtreation, which require additional classrooms^ “So we’re in a different situation that we were just a few years ago” He also pointed out that space demands change from year to year, dependent on enrollment “bubbles” at different grade levels and on the number of children with special needs. Estimating the time for planning, design, arrangement of financing, and construction for a new school at four years, Dr. Gangel gave the board different growth scenarios showing when enrollment would trigger the four-year project development clock. With a growth rate of one percent, planning would have to start in five years for an expansion at the elementary school and in 22 years for an expansion at the high school. For a growth rate of 1.5 percent, planning should start in four years for RCES and 17 for RCHS; for a rate of two percent, in three years and 11 years respectively; for a three percent rate, in two years and seven years; for a four percent rate, in one year and five years; and for a five percent rate, in one year and four years. “We have time at the high school, but at the elementary school, it’s critical,” Dr. Gangel said. “We’re a very small school division, and any large growth would have a detrimental effect on us rapidly.” The superintendent reported that new projections just received from the State Department of Education put Rappahannock’s enrollment growth at 1.6 percent annually. Based on building starts, local birth rates, triannual census, and average daily membership records, Dr. Gangel predicted the rate of increase would be 1.5 percent but advised using two percent for planning purposes. If his figure holds, the four-year project period for an expansion at the elementary school should begin in 1993. Dr. Gangel’s recommendation for provision, of adequate classroom space: Rappahannock County Middle School for grades six, seven, and eight. With a 350student capacity at a new middle school, the county’s school plants would be sufficient until the year 2015, assuming a two percent growth rate, according to the superintendent. Site requirements would be from 14 acres (the state’s minimum requirement) to 25 acres (the state’s recommended size). Providing the 120-feet per student recommended by the Department of Education, the middle school would have 42,000 square feet with construction expenses of about $3,360,000 at today’s $80 per square foot price. Taking into account land acquisition, Dr. Gangel estimated the total would run $3,500,000 at current costs. “Now, there are options to building a new middle school,” he acknowledged. “There’s the possibility we could add a wing on the building here (RCES), but that would bring the enrollment in this school to 1,100. It would certainly be a departure from the character and, I think, See NEW SCHOOL, p. 16 County's recycling effort put on temporary hold By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Saturday’s Community Recycling Day, the fifth since the project began in September, will also mark the last for the near future, according to litter coordinator Nina Stamer. “We’re on hold for right now,” Mrs. Stamer said, “although we plan to resume the recycling project as soon as the shed at the landfill can be constructed.” According to Mrs. Stamer, the problem is that Piedmont Recycling is no longer willing to participate in the once-a-month recycling activities, which have been held the third Saturday of each month at the Rappahannock County Park from 9-11 a. m. County Administrator John McCarthy said that the Board of Supervisors has approved a contract and has sent it to Chuck Stinnett, the company’s president, for his approval. Once the contract is signed, he said, the recycling center should be set up shortly afterward. In the meantime, however, county residents are in danger of losing a good habit, and that bothers Mrs. Stamer. "We need to find alternatives — until the shed at the landfill is built. The' recycling day has been a good community thing, and it’s been a fun morning.” Mrs. Stamer said that she has contacted several other recycling companies about participating in the monthly recycling day, but has gotten no takers. Apparently, she explained, the prices being paid for reeyclables right now is low, and no one is willing to travel to Rappahannock, since the distance involved eats into their already meager profits. Mrs. Stamer has, however, come up with several suggestions. She reminds residents that the Amissville Volunteer Fire Department has a trailer behind its fire hall on Route 211 where newspapers can be deposited. The fire department sells the newspapers and puts the proceeds toward its operating expenses. to eo She has contacted Culpeper County and received permission for Rappahannock residents to visit its county landfill to drop off reeyclables. The landfill, located off Route 522 on Route 638 between Salem and Culpeper, is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and is closed Wednesdays and Sundays. For residents on the north end of the county, Mrs. Stamer has come up with several suggestions in Warren County. The county runs a recycling center near the airport. The money from collected recyclables will benefit the county’s animal shelter. To reach the center, take Route 340 south from Front Royal to Route 619fT&rn right on Route 69 and go three miles to Route 68. Turn right again, and watch for a sign for the “Julia Wagner Animal Shelter Collection Center.” The center will take aluminum, newspapers and glass. Zuckerman Metals in Front Royal, located at 221 East Fifth St., will accept any ferrous or non-ferrous metals for recycling. The company will also pay 55 cents apiece for old batteries. For more information about what they will accept, call 635-2105. And, the Warren County landfill also accepts glass, See RECYCLE, p. 16 Greco will seek Guest's house seat By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Barbara Greco, a Warren County civic activist, has announced her intention to seek the 31st District delegate’s seat being vacated by Raymond R. “Andy” Guest Jr. Mrs. Greco becomes the first Democrat to jump into the race for the seat, which has been in Republican hands since Mr. Guest was first elected to the House of Delegates in 1971. “I think that this is an excellent opportunity for the Democrats to recapture the seat,” Mrs. Greco said Tuesday. After announcing his candidacy for the Republican gubernatorial nomination, Mr. Guest said he did not intend to seek reelection to his seat in the House of Delegates, where he also serves as Minority Leader. “It’s either up or out,” he said, explaining that, “it’s not proper to do both. It’s more important to get the best person in the seat than to play roulette.” Mrs. Greco has served on the Warren County Crime Commission, and is a founder and past president of the Warren County Council on Domestic Violence. She has also served on the county’s Industrial Development Au thority and is currently serving as president of the Warren County chapter of the Literacy Volunteers of America. If nominated in the Democratic primary, Mrs. Greco said that one primary thrust of her campaign would be the access to quality educational opportunities for all children. “I believe that the strength of this nation, and this state, is dependent upon the education of our youth. I have always been and will continue to be a supporter of quality education.” Her work with the county’s crime commission, she added, has left her with a commitment to and, “support for law enforcement organizations in their war on crime.” It is a prime concern, she said. “We must be alert to new methods of crime prevention, while not neglecting to deal with other aspects of the system. “Economic growth in our community is an “important factor in quality of life. Encouragement of new light industry and corporate headquarters would be a goal for the 31st District that I would endorse if elected,” Mrs. Greco said. Rappahannock attorney Douglas BARBARA GRECO Baumgardner, who briefly considered a run for the seat himself, said he was pleased to hear of Mrs. Greco’s announcement. “I’m sure that she will See GRECO, p. 16 Water project moves ahead Washington’s Treasurer Brad Fisher told the Town Council last Wednesday that he and Mayor Dean Morehouse returned from a state grant workshop with an application — and a lot of work to do in the next 60 days. Holding up the inch-thick Community Development Block Grant application forms and its accompanying instructions, Mr. Fisher said the council must hold two public hearings on the project and return the completed application by March 10. The council agreed that it will hold one hearing at each of its next two meetings, on Feb. Band March 8. In addition, he said, the application requiresthat Washington include a concept of the project in the grant proposal, which must be-wajy specific as to goals and methods. AncWtse application also requires a “confidential survey” of all town residents, including $t$ir household income, number of persons in the household, and whether the house has water, sewer and bathroom facilities.

Even Democrats were caught off-balance by Baliles address By MARY K. BLEWITT Arundel Newspapers Richmond Bureau RICHMOND — Reaction to Gov. Gerald L. Baliles’ opening remarks to the Virginia General Assembly last week followed party lines, and one Republican spokesman called the governor’s tax reform plans a “fraud.” Even fellow Democrats were uncertain how to 1 take the Baliles package. The governor threw a curveball to the 1989 General Assembly Jan. 11 with his surprise proposal to grant localities the power to collect a surcharge on 1 the state income tax. The tax would help resolve transportation problems suffered in areas throughout ‘ Virginia, he said, notably Northern Virginia and the s Tidewater area. * ; / Ji ; Gov. Baliles proposed that cities and counties be permitted to levy a local surcharge of up to one perJ . cent on the state income tax. The tax, said Gov. Baliles, must first be approved by the voters; however, funds raised by this tax must be dedicated to local , transportation needs. The tax could raise up to $213 million yearly for Northern Virginia. However, some individual tax bills could go up by 20 percent by increasing the state income tax rate from five percent to six percent un1 der the plan. State Sen. Charles L. Waddell, D-33rd District, said after the speech that he supports the proposal. “ He said the local tax would generate the revenue needed and was a fair method of raising funds. 4 ( , “All of the revenue generated would be spent in the localities for their transportation needs. It would not come to Richmond, where we would lose about 20 ' percent,” said Sen. Waddell, of Sterling. Del. Ken Plum, D-36th District, agreed that taxing localities was more efficient. ‘Taxing the state is no longer practical. We get back fewer dollars than . we spend,” said Del. Plum, of Reston. Several options, including a gasoline tax, a halfcent increase in sales tax and impact fees, have been ' ‘ discussed by members of the General Assembly for relieving the transportation crunch particularly felt in Northern Virginia and Hampton. • * But legislators admit there is little consensus among them. Nevertheless, there is a cloud of doubt 1 hanging over the State Capitol as to whether the gov' emor’s proposal will fly. “I don’t think it will pass the General Assembly,” said Del. Andy Guest, R-31st District, who represents Rappahannock County. “I’ve heard no request from localities to date,” said the Front Royal delegate, who is one of four Republicans seeking the GOP nomination for governor. “If this fails, what do we have to fall back on,” *- said freshman Del. Linda Rollins, R-32nd District, expressing a concern of many. h_ “We’re put in a bind,” said Del. Plum. “We haven’t checked that out with the people at home,” he said. Predicting a state budget surplus of close to half a billion dollars, the governor proposed to return $100.1 million of the federal tax reform windfall by offering Virginia’s individual income taxpayers a sliding scale tax credit. ‘Taxpayers with incomes ranging up to $68,000 would be entitled to a full or partial tax credit, depending upon the size of their family and its income,” explained Gov. Baliles. A maximum credit of $35 would be received by some individuals. Baliles linked the return to the sales tax on food and non-prescription drugs — a tax from which Lt. Gov. Doug Wilder, unanounced candidate for governor, has urged relief. ^ Gov.Baliles claimed the credit would provide more relief in 1989 than removal of the sales tax on food and non-prescription drugs. Some individuals have failed to see the connection between the two, he said. Gov. Baliles’ tax reform was labeled a “fraud” by Sen. Joe Benedetti, R-lOth District?, who last Thursday, Jan. 12, delivered the Republican response to Balilies speech. “He is not returning the income tax windfall,” said Sen. Benedetti, of Richmond. “The money should be returned to the middle-income itemizers who have seen their state income taxes go up,” he said. “But neither does his plan solve the other problem — the regresssive sales tax on food and non-prescription drugs,” continued Sen. Benedetti. He said that low-income families who pay little or no income tax will still be paying the sales taxes without relief. However, Del. Plum disagreed. “I don’t see it as short term,” he said, referring to the tax credit. “I think that if we enact it, it will continue.” Gov. Baliles has also introduced legislation to appropriate $283 million in expected lottery funds for 83 priority capital projects. “This way people who buy lottery tickets will see .something concrete for their lottery money,” said Del. Plum, who was enthusiastic about the proposal. Del.Guest, however, said he plans to introduce legislation to return a portion of the lottery funds to - localities for their building improvement needs. Gov. Baliles proposed that of the remaining portion of the additional general revenue funds, $77.5 million be held in a revenue reserve; $103 million be allocated to prisons and law enforcement; $94 million be put toward increased compensation to state employees and faculty members, and the final $43 million be allocated to federal and state mandated programs. Gangel reappointed as school superintendent > - It came as no surprise last week when after an executive session for personnel the Rappahannock School Board reappointed Dr. «David Gangel to a four-year term as superintendent of schools, i “We indeed are very fortunate to have him as our superintendent,” g£id Chairman Beverly Massie in a telephone interview last week. “He has a great nember of innovativeideas, and he works well with the staff — the entire staff, not just the teachers but everyone. “We’re so pleased that he takes an active part in the community.’’ Mrs. Massie continued, complimenting in particular Dr. Gangel’s presentations to the Board of Supervisors and to civic groups and Custom Framing Original Art Antique Art Gifts Frame Your Treasures In The Attic We frame anything WWIIIUUVUIIJIUIJMMAI In the Center of Royal Plaza , Front Royal, ftofessonai Pciue fioners AwxxJton 636-3485 Joyce Chandler, CPF Think Spring Special! 10% OFF ALL GARDEN SEEDS INSTOCK Shop Now & Avoid The Spring Rush!

Jo Gorman proposes to spend $40,000 in newly appropriated state initiative funds as a down payment on the 1.15-acre lot and 14,000square foot, 10-room building which was formerly the Army Reserve Center. According to Ms. Gorman, the structure would not only accommodate a new day care program for retarded adults but also the two vocational training programs now housed in rented quarters in Orange and Warrenton. The savings in rent coupled with a savings in transportation costs realized by having a consolidated job training center for retarded clients would cover monthly payments on the remainder of the purchase price, she told the county’s supervisors. Decrying the “abysmal dearth in services statewide” for the mentally retarded, Ms. Gorman said the population of 102,690 in the five-county planning district which her agency covers includes “many, many retarded citizens” who do not have “a grandmother’s^rm,” the traditional care-taker arrangement in rural areas. Federal law requires the public schools to provide services to the retarded until the age of 21. “Something needs to happen for these people after that,” she said. For the educable retarded, the Community Services Board provides opportunities for learning independent living skills at its eight-bed Goldsborough House in Culpeper, supervised apartments, job training and job placement. But the openings in no way meet the demand; for Goldsborough House, which constitutes the first critical step towards self-sufficiency, the waiting period is about five years. And for retarded adults with lower IQs and less potential, the programs are fewer, Ms. Gorman noted, adding it is these people, in he is the first Rappahannock superintendent to make his permanent home in the county. He is building a home outside Sperryville, and doing some of the work himself. Dr. Gangel was evaluated by the board at its December meeting, and while the evaluation is a personnel See GANGEL, p. 16 particular, for whom parents worry “What’s going to happen to my son or my daughter after I die?” The new building will provide the space for new programs that will help alleviate those worries, Ms. Gorman told the supervisors. But leaving aside the humanitarian reasons, there are sound financial arguments in favor of providing local programs for the retarded, she said, reporting that to maintain a person at a state institution costs $28,000 a year while providing a client with the full range of services available from the CSB costs just $7,500. The boards of supervisors in Culpeper and Fauquier counties have already given their blessings to the proposal for buying the old armory, Ms. Gorman said. She pointed out that she must still get the concurrence of the Madison and Orange boards as well as approval from the State Department of Mental Health for the expenditure of the new initiative funds for this purpose. Not only did the Rappahannock supervisors endorse the CSB’s purchase of the $175,000 property — on which it holds a contingency contract good until Feb. 1 — but they also instructed County Administrator John McCarthy to write a letter to the State Department of Mental Health, urging approval for use of the initiative funds for the $40,000 down payment. Ms. Gorman’s announcement of the. proposed capital expenditure came during a presentation explaining the function of the CSB. She described the Community Services Board as a “revenue-driven business serving customers ... a rarity among public agencies.” To provide programs for the elderly, the mentally retarded, the mentally ill, substances abusers and troubled families and individuals who are clients of the five local family guidance centers and to run the transportation system that is the agency’s “life blood,” the^CSB employs 237 people, making it an important component of the regional economic picture, Ms. Gorman said. In addition, “we try to purchase locally and to use local vendors,” the executive director noted. According" to 1985 statistics, the Rappahannock- Rapidan Community Services Board provided 21,000 hours of outpatient services, well above the 12,000 hours for the second-ranked Richmond CSB, she said. On the input side, Ms. Gorman said, the agency receives just $2,44 per capita from the local governments of the five counties it covers compared to more than $9 per capita as an average for the state’s CSBs. The agency has countered drastic cuts in federal funds with revenue from customer fees, the executive director continued. By providing quality care to attract private, pay ing customers to the family guidance centers and substance abuse programs, the CSB has been able to subsidize its other services, she said. Customers are charged fees dependant upon ability to pay, Ms. Gorman said, adding that no one is ever turned away because they don’t have money. But conversely, those who have the ability and choose not to pay are pursued through collection agencies and the courts, she told the supervisors. Seven-period day coming at RCHS Ms. Gorman’s report on the Community Services Board wasn’t the only presentation at the supervisors’ -January session. Assistant superintendent Robert Chappell, explained the hows and whys of the contemplated seven-period day for Rappahannock County High School. The switch, which will probably come next year, can be accomplished without additional staff and will make it easier for students to meet increasingly stringent graduation requirements, both for a regular diploma and for the advanced studies diploma, he said. “I think only a small percentage (of RCHS graduates) are competitive today,” responded Jackson District Supervisor Ellis Bingham. He volunteered that the supervisors may not want to hold the School Board to its contention that no additional teachers will be required, advocating the inclusion of Spanish in the high school curriculum. “You might need another teacher for that.” “I think the seven-period day is a great thing,” agreed Supervisor Nelson Lane, “but I don’t want to see the smorgasboard of electives increased . ... I’d like to see more attention to the basics.” From the audience, former teacher Joyce Abell applauded the expansion to seven periods. But she cautioned against overloading teachers with three or more daily class preparations. “We have several teachers who are already doing three preparations,” replied Mr. Chappell, saying he didn’t think the curriculum expansion as currently considered would add to that number. “That’s an awful lot to ask of a teacher,” Mrs. Abel said. “I agree,” the assistant superintendent responded. Health department “Our function is preventive medicine," said Dr. John Einarson, as he passed out copies of the Virginia Department of Health’s 1988 annual report to the board members. “We pride ourselves in doing primary, prevention,” he said, citing immuniSee DAY CARE, p. 16; Efje ftappafjannock J2etos now offers FAX MACHINE SERVICES To send information: Any U.S. destination $5.00 - first sheet $2.00 - each additional sheet To receive fax information: $4.00 - first sheet $L00 each additional sheet Qfyt fcappaf)annocfe$etog ..

Published by Arundel Newspapers Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation. THURSDAY, JANUARY 19,1989 Editorial \ Education makes strides We applaud the decisions made and steps taken by the county’s School Board at its January meeting. The board has shown foresight in sending to the county’s Planning Commission a request for a middle school to be included in the county’s capital improvements plan. Though it’s an expensive request—an estimated $3.5 million—it will likely be needed within the next 10-15 years. And, as Chairman Beverly Massie indicated, advance ..planning for a new school with proper facilities is infinitely preferable to housing overflow students in temporary [ trailers. Learning—and teaching—in that environment is difficult and uncomfortable for all concerned. The cost for a new school will be a budget-breaker. However, if planning is done ahead, there may be strategies available to the county to make the cost less burdensome to its taxpayers. And, as land values skyrocket, the county would be well advised to purchase land soon, rather than wait and see the price rise dramatically higher. The board’s approval of a seven-period day was another decision which opens new doors of opportunity for the county’s children. It will allow those high school students who ;wish to pursue advanced studies or enrichment courses to do Jso, while still ensuring that the basic core curriculum receives $he attention it deserves. / ; For students who intend to pursue their education 'beyond high school, enrichment and advance placement courses offer them a chance to reach beyond the basics. It ^challenges the student, and colleges look at that when they ^consider applications for admissions. ► For students not planning to go past high school>elective courses enable them to pursue subjects of interest to them. ;And, who knows, that pursuit may cause some of them to change their minds about college or trade school. That too would be a benefit. The board’s decision to establish the “Superintendent’s Super Stars” was another example of its commitment to academic excellence on all levels. It recognizes that effort is a necessary component of the pursuit of excellence, and that consistent devotion and struggle for academic success should be rewarded—even if the student’s achievement falls short of the standards for the Honor Roll. The board also approved further study on the idea of establishing a program for students to gain college credit for courses taken while still a student at RCHS. It’s yet another alternative for academically advanced students, and one which deserves further consideration. While there may be certain limitations, some students would certainly benefit from the opportunity. Dr. David Gangel, the county’s superintendent of schools, was also rehired by the board, which offered him a four-year contract. The vision and administrative skill which Dr. Gangel has brought to the county’s school system has been commended in this space before. The “Superintendent’s Super Stars” program is just the latest example of his ability. The board has obviously recognized it too. We’re glad he will be in Rappahannock County for some time to come. All of these developments indicate that the county’s school board and its school administrators are firmly committed to offering our students an education which will enable them not just to compete, but to excel, in their chosen careers. For that, we commend the board.

Letters to the editor Time for a change To the editor: I address this letter to other concerned parents of Rappahannock County. ■C On Monday, the country paid tribute to a great person who happened to be among us for a very short time: Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Since 1988, Dr. King’s birthday has been proclaimed by the Congress to be a national holiday. Many schools and businesses were closed for this great man’s birthday and numerous programs in and around the area were held in his honor. I was quite disappointed to find that the Rappahannock County public schools did not follow this new-found tradition and let our children have the day off to honor this great civil rights leader. Fauquier County schools had the day off, and my husband and I were going to plan a day of remembrance with the children that I was asked to participate in, but the children said they wanted to get perfect attendance for the year and chose to go to school. The told us later that several of their teachers did have a lesson on this great statesman, but I wonder if every teacher in the county were asked to take a few brief moments and dwell upon an aspect of his life. I would like to see in the not too distant future the schools in Rappahannock County take part with the other surrounding counties and declare a day off for the blacks and whites of this fair county in honor of Dr. King. LINDA MALLORY Sperryville Thanks, and goodbye To the editor: I’d like to take this opportunity to address the residents of Rappahannock County. I write this letter with vej-y mixed feelings.

Baliles'state of the state' address falls far short of expectations, promises and needs By DEL. ANDY GUEST Rappahannock News Contributing Writer RICHMOND — The 1989 Session of the Virginia General Assembly was jump-started into action last Wednesday, and for the next six weeks I will be reporting to you on the actions and missfires that will be occuring throughout. The Governor delivered his last State of the Commonwealth speech and while it was certainly a far-reaching document, taking over an hour to tell us what he has in mind for the coming year, the House and Senate budget tinkerers are already beginning to break ranks in some important areas. Virginia has amassed a record revenue surplus of $508 million. While much of this is due to the healthy economy here in the Commonwealth, we cannot overlook the special circumstances created by the lottery revenues since the start-up of the games last fall. Another reason for the surplus is the windfall produced by the 1986 Federal Tax reforms passed by Congress. Some states, Virginia among them, are still trying to figure out if it’s real money or tax dollars rightfully belonging to the taxpayers, since no action was taken by the state to take the extra money. Many of us believe it is the latter and have been fighting for three years to return this money, in full, to the taxpaying citizens of Virginia. The General Assembly in 1987 passed a law to this effect, but it has taken the Governor nearly two years to come up with a plan — a plan that falls far short, in my opinion, of the intent of the law. The Governor is proposing a form of tax relief with a one year, one, time tax credit amounting to about $100 million which gives a rebate or tax credit that returns at most $35 to each member of a taxpaying family. He says that he is helping lower and middle income families, but in fact he is leavihg out the very people who created this windfall with their tax dollars. According to his critera, a family of four liv ing on 5>i54,uuu per year will get a one-time credit of $140, or the maximum allowed rebate of $35 per person. A single person will get their $35 rebate only if he or she makes no more than $17,000 per year. Any person or family making more than these amounts are left out of the package or scaled back in their benefits, and no one benefits until 1990 when returns are filed. In short, those taxpayers who were most responsible for creating this part of the state surplus due to the 1986 reforms receive nothing for their three year “loan” to the state government. The Department of Corrections package the Governor laid out also falls short of his pre-session promises to finally do something to help alleviate the overcrowding in our state prisons and local jails. He is allowing only an additional $33 million to help expand four existing prison facilities and help construct new ones. However, anyone who has followed our prison problems knows that this amount hardly means more than a soft powdering of green dust over a far broader scope of existing needs and does not in fact address future projected overcrowding problems. I will work with our legislative budgeteers to try to find a better way before the end of the session. The Governor has also socked away $77.5 million as a so-called “rainy day fund” designed to anticipate against a slowdown in the national „ economy or additional tax code changes by Congress. However, I am sure a number of legislators are already rehearsing their own rain dances for the House and Senate Budget Committees to draw funds away from this pot for various election year projects in their own districts. And other legislators are tapping their shoes over the lottery proceeds slated only for capital improvements by the Governor over the next two years to the tune of $283 million. Some of us would like to see a portion of these lottery proceeds returned to the localities to alleviate their ever-increasing school construction, transportation, and special water and sewer project costs. One issue the Governor declined to address! was the actual removal of the sales tax from non-! prescription drugs and medicines. Republican; Delegate Peter Giesen will be introducing it on: the House side. Perhaps Lt. Governor Wilder can lend his support to this bill since the Governor’s plan falls far short of this goal. While it has always been my belief that his is a regressive tax and impacts upon those in the lower income brackets and the elderly who might be retired on low incomes, I also realize the difficulties that could occur at the point of sale in determining what products are taxable and which are not. I would appreciate hearing from you on these issues and any other matters throughout the next six weeks. You may write to me at my office in Richmond, Room 614, General Assembly Building, 910 Capitol Street, Richmond 23210; or telephone my office at (804) 786-7395. I look forward to representing your interests once again this year as your Delegate. My. Guest is Rappahannock's representative in Virginia’s House of Delegates, where he also serves as Minority Leader. A Warren County farmer, Mr. Guest is also seeking the Republican nomination for Governor. 1

Op - Ed Ottt of the attic Addressing state tax inequities By SEN. KEVIN MILLER ‘ <■ Rappahannock News Contributing Writer •' The most glaring inequity in our income tax laws is the tax on the ► ^gain” from the sale of property held F for a period of years. For instance, if you acquired land in 1969 for $20,000, due to the decrease in the value of the dollar, in 1986 you would have had to sell it for more than $60,000 to break even ; economically. Selling the property in 1986 would have resulted in a Virginia income tax of $920. The Federal Tax Reform Act of 1986 removed the 60 percent longterm capital gain deduction. Governor Baliles and the Democrat-con-' trolled General Assembly failed to make appropriate changes in our tax laws. » it* Therefore, if you sold the same property after 1986 for the same $60,000 makes you liable for a state tax of more than $2,300. This is 2 1/2 times as much tax, or an increase of 150 percent. In 1987, I introduced a bill that would allow the indexing of the cost basis of property sold. This adjustment to the cost would be based on the change in the consumer price index for the period of time the property is owned. There would be no tax unless there is an actual economic gain (i.e., sales price exceeds the cost of the property adjusted for inflation). The Finance Committee Chairman referred my bill to a subcommittee that, to my knowledge, never met. I was disappointed that Governor Baliles did not propose a tax rate reduction or legislation that would correct the inequity in the tax on capital gains. F ortunately, President-elect Bush has promised to seek correction at the federal level. If he is not successful in 1989, I will consider introducing another bill in 1990. Since we will have a new governor then, I may be more successful. Mr. Miller represents Rappahannock County in the Virginia State Senate. Constituents wishing to contact Sen. Miller may write Hon.

Library offers poetry series > An innovative poetry series involving videocassettes, discussion and presentation by a local., working poet will begin in Rappahannock County Feb. 21 and continue every two weeks until April. “Voices and Visions” will be presented by the Rappahannock County Library, courtesy of an award by the American Library Association and the National Endowment for the Humanities. The Rappahannock Library is one of 25 in the country and the only one in Virginia to be selected for this award, librarian Dee Brents noted. The program was originally presented by Public Radio. “Many who would have enjoyed it on TV were hot able to see the series because reception of public television is poor or non-existent here near the mountains,” wrote Grace Sims, Library Trustee, in the grant application. Mrs. Sims said that this and the positive support in the community enabled the library to win this unusual honor. She cited support from Friends of the Library, RAAC, the Middle Street Gallery, the schools and private discussion groups. Similar programs presented by the library have been most successful, with 30 to 50 residents attending the sessions of fiction and biography. The grant includes training concluded recently in San Diego, fees for local scholar Peter Klappert, a professor and poet who will be attending each session, a 13-part videocassette set, 30 copies of the textbook and promotional materials. Rappahannock chose “Making it New — the Origins of Modem Poetry” for its series. The five-part series includes William Carlos Williams, T.S. Eliot, Langston Hughes, Elizabeth Bishop and Sylvia Plath. The program will consider some of their major works, their very different lives and their place in the culture of their exciting era, Mrs. Brents said. Each session will include a videotaped program and a discussion of selected poems, with the participation of Mr. Klappert. Pre-registration is required, and everyone is invited, regardless of their knowledge of the subject. “We want this to be a rewarding project for those who know and love poetry and those who are completely baffled by it,” Mrs. Brents said. To register, go to the library on Gay Street, Washington, or telephone 675-3780. Copies of the textbook are available at the library.

Day REALTOR “ SOMETIMES OLDER IS BETTER As the saying goes: “Your not getting older—you're getting better.” This also applies to homes. If you want more house for dollar, you have many good reasons to jook over older homes. For one thing, there are simply more old houses than new ones. For every new house that will go up this year there are ones. For every new house that will go up this year there are some 45 existing Jiomes already on the market. Many older homes, especially those built before World War II, offer more abundant space than new homes do—a special attraction if you have a large and growing family, but a limited budget. Most old homes are in well-established, well-developed neighborhoods. There will be no waiting for streets to be paved, sewers to be connected or schools to be built. All that is going to grace the neighiborhood is probably already there, so that worrying about the future will have been done for you already.

Sports medicine forum at CMH Sports injuries will be the subject of a free health forum to be presented by Dr. Robert Rutkowski on Tuesday, Jan. 24 at Culpeper Memorial Hospital at 7:30 p.m. “This presentation is designed for people who are active and want to remain that way,” said Dr. Rutkowski, an orthopedic surgeon with Virginia Orthopaedic Center in Culpeper. Dr. Rutkowski will cover many types of sports injuries, their treatment and prevention. He will also describe arthroscopy, a surgical procedure used to diagnose and repair some injuries resulting from sports accidents. Sports medicine, however, is much more than orthopedic surgery. A wide field, sports medicine ranges from physical therapy through several medical specialties such as orthopedists, « cardiologists, -rheumatologists, internists and others. The approach of sports medicine is to encourage a healthy lifestyle and to resolve problems in order to allow individuals to continue participation in their chosen activities. “Although there are many important subjects in sports medicine, my involvement as an orthopedic surgeon is usually with injuries, and this program will give a general overview with emphasis on what interests those who attend,” said Dr. Ruthkowski. While on a lab fellowship at the University of Pittsburgh, Dr. Rutkowski also was the resident in charge of the athletic program. That year the University of Pittsburg was number one in football in the nation. But Dr. Rutkowski’s interest in sports is not limited to medicine. He has been actively involved in sports since he was seven years old. In high school he participated in football, baseball, and wrestling and was honored with the Western New York scholar-athlete award. In college he was captain of the football team and a All-ECAC and All-New England selection his junior and senior years. He also lettered in lacrosse and wrestling. i Now he can be seen jogging, a sport he began in medical school. Anyone who enjoys any sport from walking to varsity or other competitive sports is welcome at this free program. To attend, please register by calling Jill Pegelow, CMH community relations department at 829-4307 or from Orange, 672-4322. The snow date for the forum is Feb. 28.

MADDOX Funeral Home 105 W. Main St. Front Royal, VA 635 - 2773 Help the heart fight In fiscal year 1987-88, the American Heart Association awarded $63 million in funding for research into heart disease. Still, despite this massive effort, heart disease is the country’s leading cause of death. In 1986, it caused 46.6 percent of all deaths. In Rappahannock County, one of every two residents die of heart disease or related ailments. The risks of heart disease can be minimized by regular physical examinations, not smoking, eating nutritious food in moderate amounts and having a blood pressure checkup at least once a year. But despite the measures indi viduals can take to lower the risks of heart disease, many people will still develop cardiovascular problems. At the local level, a heart association spokesman said, “We can take advantage of the opportunity to give in the resident fund drive during February.” The Rappahannock Unit of the American Heart Association wrill gladly accept volunteers to assist with its fund drive. Residents interested in helping should call membership chairman Eino Siira (9878385) or their district captains: Wakefield, Maybelle Gilkey (635-5472), Isabel Remington (675-3734) or Beverly Atkins (675-3513); Hampton, Lillian Aylor (987-8631); Piedmont, Edna Metzinger (987-8161); Jackson, Dr. Gil Webb (937-5689); StonewallHawthome, Lucia Kilby (987-8741) or Carolyn Manwaring (987-8433).

Despite lackadaisical offense, Panthers top Stonewall Generals AP poll ranks RCHS eighth, in Group A statewide By joe McCullough Rappahannock News Special Writer Good basketball teams are always going to have an off night. Its what makes them better. And as long as the lapse doesn’t come at tournament time, coaches just hope the players keep trying, and then they work hard at straightening out problems in practice. The Rappahannock Panthers will be practicing hard this week. They will concentrate on involving others besides Eric Dunn in the offense, according to Coach Gary Leake. He said he also wants his boys to quicken the tempo, especially on defense. The Panthers survived all these problems Friday night against the Stonewall Jackson Generals, winning 61-51. But it took key fourth quarter performances by Julian Groves and Danny Ellis to squelch a determined effort by the 2-6 Generals. Stonewall tied the game at eight midway through the opening period, and was threatening to take the lead when Groves rejected a shot and passed to Dunn on the break. Dunn converted on a three point play and that was as close as the Generals came the remainder of the game. The Generals hurt themselves by getting into early foul trouble and putting Rappahannock on the line 24 times. RCHS chalked up 18 charity points including a perfect six-for-six from Doug Smith. “Free throws and rebounding are where we won the game,” said Coach Leake, who was “pleased to get the win, but not satisfied by the team’s performance.” The Panthers outrebounded Stonewall, 38-21. However, they also turned the ball over 19 times. Sixteen first-half points by Eric Dunn kept RCHS in front, 30-20, at the midway break. Dunn finished the contest with 19 to lead all players; he is currently the second leading scorer in the area, averaging 20.8 points a game. The Panthers came out of the locker room slowly and allowed Stonewall to run off four straight, 24-30. Only a few minutes later Anthony Porter drew his third foul, and Leake was forced to put him on the bench. RCHS fought back with two Dunn-to-Smith fast breaks and widened the gap again, 40-30. The final period began with both teams trading buckets and after two minutes the score was 48-38. The Panthers went cold for the next two and a half minutes while the Generals converted on five of six free throws following a technical foul to narrow the lead to 48-43. Doug Smith ended the drought and Danny Ellis scored seven of his eleven points as RCHS went on to defeat SJHS, 61-51. Rappahannock remains tied with Central on top of the Bull Run District with a 5-1 record, 6-1 overall. Central’s record is 6-1 in district play, but the Falcons’ only loss came at the hands of the Panthers. The Panthers are the fourth most productive team in the area, averaging over 62 points a game, and are the third best defensively. The Panthers are ranked eighth in the state by the AP in its firsl Group A poll. RCHS received 3c votes to finish right behind Central, ranked seventh state-wide with 3£ points. The Rappahannock’s jayvees posted a 48-37 win earlier in the evening. The Junior Panthers probably connected on only a quarter of theii shots but pulled in an impressive 6C rebounds. Paul Hitt was high scorer with 18, and Dearl Cloud was tops on the boards with 12 rebounds. After a week’s vacation, the Panthers travel to Berryville this Friday, Jan. 20 to meet district foe Clarke County.

Coffey grinds out eight in first jayvee volleyball win By joe McCullough Rappahannock News Special Writer RCHS girl’s volleyball coach Scott Mellott started out the season optimistically. “Every time the girls played I saw a marked improvement,” Mellott said. “For some of these girls it’s the first time they’ve played organized volleyball, and it takes time.” Last Friday against the Brentsville Cougars Coach Mellott got a glimpse of what RCHS volleyball could be like in the future. The varsity squad lost 15-8, 15-9, dropI ———— ping their record to 0-6, but the girls “played the best game of their season,” added the coach. Especially encouraging was the standout play by Liz Oliver, who had seven good defensive saves, and Ann Franklin, who had “a real good game setting the ball for spiker Donna Foster,” the coach said. Earlier in the evening the jayvee Panthers posted their first victory, and did so in dramatic fashion. RCHS was trailing 9-7 when Heather Coffey began serving. To the delierht of the home fans she ran off eight straight points including four aces. The Brentsville game was the first start for Coffey who admitted to being “real nervous in front of the home crowd, especially on the last serve when everyone stood up and yelled and started beating on the bleachers.” Coffey says she never served that well in practice, and attributed her performance to having her father in the stands. “He’s my good luck charm.” The second match was neck and neck the whole way but RCHS prevailed 15-12.

School Young artists bring home ribbons and more Youngsters from Rappahannock County Elementary School took five out of the 12 prizes offered by Harrisonburg’s public television station in WPTV’s 20th anniversary poster contest. “Five out of 12! I think that’s the kind of ratio we deserve,” said Superintendent David Gangel, as the School Board applauded the work of the student artists and their art teacher, Linda Owings. The contest, My Favorite Program on WPTV, was opened to elementary students in grades kindergarten through fifth in the station’s broadcast area. The winners from RCES were Joshua Morris (first place, kindergarten), Keyasa Moore (first place, third grade), Amy Buckholtz (second place, first grade), Ariele Foster (second place, fourth grade), and Tamara Carter (second place, fifth grade). But it wasn’t just ribbons that the children won. They were awarded a $25 savings account by Investers Savings Bank of Harrisonburg, and they were presented their passbooks on the air while they were interviewed for WPTV’s Short Takes series. In addition, their winning posters will be shown between programs with the station’s call letters during the months of January and February. The children also received certificates from the TV station plus free membership in WPTV’s Kids Club, and their color posters were reproduced in miniature black-and THE TRADING POST AUTHENTIC AMERICAN INDIAN ARTS 8C CRAFTS Cordially invites you to meet LLOYD CARL OWLE Woodcarver, Stone Sculptor 8C Lecturer Saturday & Sunday, January 21 & 22, 1989 P- m.

My father is an artist, too.” • A very serious Ariele Foster assured Mr. Read that the television programs her class watches at RCES are educational and do not include Sesame Street. • Fifth grader Tamara Carter, radiating poise and confidence, announced she wants to be a doctor.

Anerioas Premier AulomoNve Family M favorite part of school is playing outside with his best friend, Chris Payne, and he didn’t stumble a bit over the tongue-twisting name of his favorite WPTV show', Mrs. Kabobble’s Caboose. • A little shy in front of the cameras, Amy Burkholtz whispered that ^she likes Reading Rainbow best long WPTV’s educational pro' Gathered last w'eek in the RCES cafeteria, three of the five winners (Joshua Morris was not in school and Amy was still too shy to do much talking) explained their coolness before the television cameras. “I’ve been on television before. Our Brownie troop was videotaped and the tape was sent to a Lynchburg television station,” Keyasa said. “And I was on television, too, from Fairfax Hospital, with my mom and my dad,” Tamara added. “She’s a nurse, and he’s a doctor. He does autopsies. Ugh!” she said, wringling her face in distaste. “I do a little bit of modeling,” Arielle reported. “I’ve been in a magazine before - Faith Mountain’s catalogue.” And besides having experience in the spotlight, the girls confided that they were well-rehearsed by the is. WPTV staff. What will they do with their $25 savings accounts presented on the air by Investors Savings Bank representative Ed White? Tamara must have seen the latest on medical school costs because she answered: “I’m going to keep mine in the bank and add to it.” “I’m not sure yet. I may spend it. Or I may save it until I’m 90 years old and then buy some real good clothes,” said Keyasa, her eyes twinkling with an invitation to ask why she’d wait until 90. “My aunt is 90. She has some real good clothes even though she’s 90. She wears a size five, and I borrow her mini-skirts. They’re long skirts on me, ‘cause she’s real tall.” “I think I’m going to keep mine in a savings account because I get an allowance and I spend that money,” Ariele confided. “Spend it!” replied Amy, without a second’s hesitation or a trace of shyness. “I’m going to spend it.” Seven period day approved By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock News Staff Writer “This is a step forward for us in the field of education,” said Chairman Beverly Massie as the Rappahannock School Board last week approved institution of the seven period day at Rappahannock County High School next year. “This will put our students in a better position to compete with students from surrounding areas (by providing) more opportunity to take additional courses and giving them a broader base for their studies.” “There are many important things going on, but this may be the most important,” Superintendent David Gangel agreed, saying the move “opens a realm of possibilities.” Assistant Superintendent Robert Chappell reported that the faculties of the two schools worked out a new bell schedule that allows for seven periods at RCHS without lengthening the day for younger students at RCES. The extra time at the high school comes from here and there: class periods have been cut from 52 to 48 minutes, homeroom is five minutes instead of 10, the start of the school day has been moved up from 8:31 to 8:25, and students have a shorter break between homeroom and first period and between the end of class and the departure of the buses. The new courses to be offered in 1989-90 are advanced placement English and Latin I (both by electronic classroom), Drama, Biology II, French IV and V, advanced physical education for grades 11 and 12, Architectural Drawing, 18-week combinations of Business Law and an employment seminar and Marriage in the Family and Child Care/Parenting and non-credit classes for yearbook and newspaper staff members. According to the administration, the expansion will require no additional teachers. Rather, five teachers will take an additional daily class period, for which they will be compensated an extra $2,000 apiece. Fringe benefits and instructional supplies will bring the total cost to about $14,000 not including $2,000 worth of textbooks covered by the RCHS textbook account and rental charges. (Teachers who monitor the electronic classroom or supervise the non-credit classes will not receive additional compensation.) Results of RCHS student surveys show that 47 percent plan to take six subjects and one study hall a year while 41 percent intend to take seven subjects. In 1986, Virginia increased its graduation requirements to 21 courses for a regular diploma and 23 courses for an advanced studies diploma. With the current six period day, “it’s awfully hard to work in additional courses like band, choir, art, and typing or to take vocational courses like drafting if you’re going the college preparatory route for the advanced studies diploma,” Mr. Chappell noted. Of Virginia s 132 school divisions, 78 have instituted the seven period schedule at the secondary level, and of the remaining 54, 17 divisions offer seven periods at the middle school level. In other action at the January School Board meeting Dr. Gangel reported on the establishment of the Superintendent’s Super Stars, a new program that recognizes effort. For example, the student who “works hard and moves from a “C” to a “B” doesn’t have the grades to make the honor roll but could qualify as a Superintendent’s Super Star. These youngsters, who will be identified by their teachers for each marking period, will receive a “Super Star” button and be Dr. Gangel’s guests at a luncheon within the school. In addition, letters of congratulations applauding the students’ “exemplary effort and hard work” will be sent home to parents. He also told the board that he is exploring possibilities for joint course offerings with Lord Fairfax Community College which would allow Rappahannock high school students to meet requirements for graduation while simultaneously earning college credit. Many questions remain unanswered, however, he noted, saying he will keep the board apprised of developments.

Begin your search in the classified section—the convenient way to get ahead! Rescue squads offer to train public Who usually arrives first on the scene of an accident? Though the police are usually there quickly, often there are bystanders or witnesses there already. In a serious accident, a critically injured victim may need help within six minutes if they are to survive. If those bystanders had basic emergency medical skills, lives could be saved. If more people had basic first aid training, and police and sheriffs department personnel have first aid knowledge, they could render assistance while waiting for fire and rescue units. Beginning on Jan. 23, the Rappahannock-Rapidan Emergency Medical Services Council is sponsoring a First Responder course. This 40hour class will teach the basics of emergency medicine, focusing on what can be done by the first people on the scene to render critical care to severely injured victims. The course will be held on Monday and Thursday nights, from 7-10 p.m. at the Brandy Station Volunteer Fire Department. “This course can save lives,” an EMS council spokesman said. Often, police and fire units arrive at the scene of an accident before the rescue squad. “We are fortunate,” the council spokesman said, “that many of our firefighters and law enforcement personnel have some rescue training.” However, if more members of the general public could give aid in an emergency, more people could be saved and suffering could be lessened. The EMS council is urging firefighters, police officers and dispatchers to take a basic first aid or first responder course. “Dispatchers need specialized training because they must make critical decisions to save lives. In some urban areas, less than 20 percent of dispatchers are trained in rescue procedures.” Last month the fire departments and rescue squads in Rappahannock, Culpeper and Fauquier counties participated in a joint exercise in emergency extrication. In addition to learning techniques to enter vehicles and stabilization and care of patients, the participants learned what specialized equipment is available from each county in the event of an emergency. Just as important, they learned to operate the various tools. “Such cooperation between fire departments and rescue squads speeds up the assistance they can give to injured people,” the council said. Some departments and squads, like Sperryville, have assigned emergency duties; at an accident scene the fire department handles access to the patients, using extrication tools like the “Jaws of Life,” while the rescue squad members provide medical treatment. That way, rescuers can concentrate on patient care while the firefighters use their expertise to get to the patient and clear a way for him to be removed. The EMS council, which oversees emergency medical services in the five counties of Planning District 9, will offer a number of courses in emergency medicine during the coming months. Some are designed for rescue squad members who wish to advance their training, others are basic courses and open to the public. The classes which will be offered include: • Emergency Medical Technician: Course leads to certification by the Commonwealth of Virginia to practice as an EMT. Feb. 16 to May 30, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7-10 p.m. at Fauquier High School. Instructor will be Chuck Thompson. Pre-registration is required. • EMT Basic and Refresher: Beginning Jan. 9, Monday and Wednesday nights from 7-10 p.m. at Marshall Volunteer Rescue Squad building. Paul Fries will teach the class. • Shock/Trauma Technician: Beginning Jan. 16, Mondays and Thursdays from 7-10 p.m. Location and instructors to be announced. Current EMT certification, recommendation of captain or chief, pretest and pre-registration are required. • First Responder: Beginning Jan. 23, Monday and Thursday nights from 7-10 p.m. at Brandy Station VFD. Leilani ■ Stanley will be the instructor. For more information about any of these courses, cMl the RREMSC office (825-6849), from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday. The fire and rescue departments are also seeking interested residents who are willing to donate some of their time and energy to help their neighbors. Although people willing to run fire and rescue calls are certainly needed and welcomed, most of the fire departments and rescue squads would also appreciate offers of assistance from people willing to help with fund-raising and the various administrative duties which are also a necessary part of the departments’ functions. For information about who to contact in a specific area, call the EMS office. In Rappahannock County, Paul Poling (937-5205), president of the county’s fire and rescue association, can provide the names of department and squad officers in each community. They can be contacted for more information about membership. New Year a good time to take stock By JOHN BORGENS Rappahannock News Contributing Writer New Year’s offers an opportunity for each one of us to pause and assess our own life — evaluating our priorities and taking stock of the direction our lives are going. It’s a time to pause, catch our breath and consider what we can make of the new year. Today, more and more people are getting caught up in the grind and pressures of daily living. The result is that they experience stress and exhibit its symptoms: physically, emotionally, mentally and behaviorally. Stress can sneak up on you. It can be a subtle process of taking on more and more responsibilities, with schedules getting fuller and fuller, until the individual feels drained and exhausted. , Many people seek counseling because they feel that their life is out of sorts and they are not happy with the way they are behaving. Perhaps they cry, or are weepy, or just feel “down” for long periods during the day. They may find that they have little or no patience with their children. In some people, stress is mam ifested by feelings of anxiety or panic. In general, they describe just not feeling or behaving like themselves. FdmiLV rOCU^I If the problems have no physical cause, they are probaWy the result of stress. Usually, this is the result of a lot of little things that have built up over time. Stress-based problems don’t crop up overnight, although the individual may find something specific which he thinks has caused it — the proverbial “straw that broke the camel's back.” The person may feel overextended or overwhelmed because his life is out of balance. This balance is between job, family, personal and spiritual time. All too often the individual’s time and energy is centered around just one of these things and their life is out of balance. For example, it is common for men to center their lives around their jobs, ignoring other important dimensions in their lives. When there is no balance, a lot of energy is going out with little or none coming in. A woman may devote herself to her family, leaving no time or energy to devote to her own mental or emotional growth. That too, can lead to the symptoms of stress, because her life is also out of balance. Too much energy is going out and she is not getting enough in return. We all have to recharge our batteries, and have time when we can be nourished emotionally and spiritually. The new year provides an excellent benchmark for all of us to evaluate our lives, our priorities and the direction we are headed. If the balance needs adjustment, new priorities can be established. Scheduling and establishing goals are helpful tools in obtaining balance. Often, the process of establishing balance, of setting new priorities is not easy, but it will not happen unless we make decisions and then act on them. In the long run, having our lives in balance benefits our interactions with family, friends, employees and others — as well as ourselves. John Borgens is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. His private practice. Family Focus, has offices in Washington, Warrenton and Madison. Exercise helps in coping with stress It’s not just physical fitness buffs who extol the virtues of exercise. Mental health professionals, too, say that regular exercise is one of the most effective tools in combating stress. And, while exercise alone probably won’t cure the problem, many mental health practitioners prescribe exercise along with counseling for their patients. After the holidays, most everyone feels a little out of sorts, whether it’s because of too many sweets, too much “Christmas cheer,” or just too much of everything. While dieting may take off the pounds, most doctors say that over time, exercise is an essential part of weight management. Otherwise, when the diet stops so does the weight loss — and usually the pounds go right back on. Exercise can also help with stress. And with the average work week now at 46 hours, with more households having both adults working, more people are setting themselves up for the problems caused by stress. “Stress is not bad,” said David Shapiro, Ph.D, professor of psychology at the UCLA Neuropsychiatric Institute. "It’s how the individual deals with it that's the critical thing." According to Dr. Kenneth Cooper, the pioneer of aerobic exercise, “Vigorous exercise is a good anti-stress tool. Every time you work out hard, you release pent-up tension. Immediately afterward, you’ll feel relaxed, refreshed and energized.” Dr. Cooper said that lowering the heart rate is another benefit of exercise. Besides offering the individual increased stamina, it also helps reduce the effects of stress, both on the physical body and the mental state. According to Mona Shangold and Dr. Gabe Mirkin, writing in Women and Exercise, regular exercise can actually improve an individual’s mood, decrease depression and increase self-esteem. That’s because it actually alters the body’s chemistry, stimulating the production of endorphins, substances in the brain which act like natural opiates. Researchers hypothesize that endorphins are wrhat produce the “runner’s high" which marathoners and other distance runners sometimes experience. Exercise also seems to stimulate the production of another hormone, norepinephrine, which is apparently directly related to emotional stability. There is no one “right" exercise, or exercise program, for everyone. Whether it’s swimming, cycling, hiking, running or brisk walks, the most important factor, experts say, is to choose an activity you like. That way you’ll look forward to the exercise, and it seems more like fun instead of a “workout.” There's one caution for would-be exercisers, however. Anyone who is overweight or who has not exercised for some time should consult a doctor before beginning an exercise regimen. And, of course, anyone who is under a doctor’s care should ask him about the advisability of a particular exercise program. He may agree or, if not, suggest an alternate plan. Doctors and fitness professionals agree that almost anyone can participate in some type of exercise. And for almost everyone, that means benefits which will last a lifetime.

Day care Continued from page 3 zation services, nutrition and health education for young mothers, and family planning services as examples. “A goodly portion of our expenditures are in maternal and child health .... Twenty or 30 years down the pike what we’ve done is going to show up in that person’s life. “We’re also very strong in secondary prevention,” the regional health director continued, giving as an example the Health Department’s home health service which sets the stage for rehabilitation for those recently released from hospitals and nursing homes. Also at the January meeting: • County Administrator John McCarthy reported that a price quote has not yet been received from the single qualifying bidder on providing handicapped access at the courthouse. In response to a change in federal regulations, the board intends to install an interior chairlift rather than the outside elevator originally proposed. “I’m kind of glad there’s been this delay because I think this will be much less intrusive to the integrity of the building,” commented Richard Abell, whose request for access provision prompted the board’s decision to proceed with the project. • The board agreed to have flyers printed and mailed to all box holders and rural route patrons, setting out the county’s regulations governing solid waste disposal and the hours of operation for the new county landfill. “If it costs $150 to ensure that every citizen gets that information. it will be money well spent,” said Supervisor Mike Massie. “Then no one can use ignorance of the law as an excuse,” Col. Bingham added. • The board decided to ask the Landfill Advisory Committee for a recommendation on how and when to provide the landfill operator with an on-site office which would double as shelter in bad weather. “Right now, Mr. Artz sits in his truck with the motor running in cold weather,” Col. Bingham reported. • The board appointed Aileen Johnson to the three-member Welfare Board. Mrs. Johnson, the postmaster for Sperryville, is a former member of that body. In addition, the supervisors agreed to expand the Welfare Board to five members but delayed that action pending scheduling of the required public hearing. • Ann Spieker wras named as Piedmont District’s representative on the Rappahannock Recreation Authority and Troy Jenkins was appointed as Everett Estes’ replacement on the Building Appeals Board. • Following an executive session, the position of animal w arden was increased to 30 hours per week and the salary upped to $12,500 with the board to consider making it a fulltime job in the next fiscal year. County attorney Peter Luke was also authorized to give a bid of $2,100 on the county’s behalf for property to be offered at auction for delinquent taxes. (The figure represents the board’s investment in advertising and legal fees related to the sale.) • Wakefield District representative Hubert Gilkey was re-elected as the board’s chairman and Piedmont District Supervisor Charles “Pete” Estes as vice chairman. Gangel Continued from page 3 matter and thus confidential, the superintendent noted: “I’m very happy with it.” The renewed contract carries - for the present — the same $46,075 salary Dr. Gangel now receives. “If I get a raise, it would be determined in the next budget,” he said, explaining that procedure is by tradition and choice. “I don’t want to negotiate separately from the rest of our administrative team.” (Last year, salary increases for administrators were linked to the percentage increases afforded teachers. Rappahannock’s instructional staff, which ranks near the bottom in compensation among Virginia’s 136 school divisions, received an eight percent raise in 1988-89, only slightly more than what was mandated by the state. This coming fiscal year, the mandate again calls for teachers to get at least a 7.3 percent increase.)

SEVEN REASONS THAT ADD UP TO TOTAL COMMITMENT TO YOU, THE SELLER. Total Realty Concept, Inc. (703)825-1803 Council Continued from page 1 Mr. Fisher said the town had decided against a door-to-door survey, and will opt instead to include the two-page document, which is confidential and need not have any name attached, in the January water bills. He added that the bill will include a note that the survey is voluntary and confidential, and will help the town to receive the water grant. The treasurer told his fellowcouncil members that in the last CDBG cycle, of the 45 applicants 33 received funding, at an average level of $660,000. Washington is seeking a $700,000 grant for the water project. “So w-e are right in the ballpark with our request, ” he said. Mr. Fisher reported that he has structured several rate increases which will attain the necessary $17 per month average water bill. That is the estimated amount the town will require to service the $27,000 annual debt on the Farmers Home Administration loan The Water Authority chief told the council that !khis figures would start with a $10 base rate, with the first step increase to come after 3.000 gallons of usage. From 3-5,000 gallons, customers would pay 25 cents for each 100 gallons. At 5,000 gallons, the step increases to 30 cents for each 100 gallons used. That step reaches to 10.000 gallons per month. Above that usage, the step increases to 35 cents per 100 gallons. “Basically,” Mr. Fisher told the council, “the more you use, the more you pay.” Greco Continued from page 1 make a formidible candidate, and I think that she would do an excellent job if elected.” Mr. Baumgardner said that it is still early in the political year, “and I’m not endorsing anyone at this point.” He agreed with Mrs. Greco's assessment of the Democratic chances to regain the seat. Although the Seventh Congressional District is the most Republican in the state, the 31st House District, particularly Rappahannock and Warren counties, “are more Democratic than any other, and get out a stronger Democratic vote,” he said. The district also includes Clarke County, as well as parts of Fauquier and Culpeper counties. Mr. Baumgardner pointed out that, “Our voters provide strong margins for Virginia-style Democrats.” In 1985, of the 29 precincts in the 31st House District, Gov. Gerald Babies carried 22, Lt. Gov. Douglas Wilder carried 17, and Attorney General Mary Sue Terry won in 28. And in 1988, former governor Charles S. Robb swept all 29 precincts on his way to a seat in the United States Senate. “We Democrats believe that this is a competitive district — more so than most districts in the Seventh,” he said. ®fje Rappahannock iietos now otters FAX MACHINE SERVICES To send information: Any U.S. destination $5.00 - first sheet $2.00 - each additional sheet To receive fax information: $4.00 - first sheet $1.00 each additional sheet e Rappahannock ihtoa Main St. Washington, VA. 703/675-3338 Fax: 675-3088 Mrs. Greco’s decision makes her the second candidate to announce. Front Royal Town Councilman Robert J. Traister said last month that he wants the Republican nomination. Another Republican possibility, Elizabeth Board, found she was unable to run because she could not meet the residency requirement. Warren County Republican Committee Chairman Ronald Gilliam has also been mentioned as a possible candidate. Speculation on other possible Democratic candidates has centered on Front Royal’s town attorney, David Crump, who is said to be considering a bid for Mr. Guest’s seat. Mr. Crump, the former Warren County Commonwealth’s Attorney, is a Flint Hill resident. i Mrs. Greco has been a resident of Warren County for almost 20 years.

MVR New school Continued from page 1 the strength of Rappahannock County’s schools.” As the board members voted unanimously to forward the capital expansion contingency plan to the local planning commission, Wakefield District representative Paul Nichols suggested that they watch for property coming on the market. “We owned the high school site for a number of years before the building was ever constructed,” he reported, recalling that the property was purchased in the mid-1940s while RCHS wasn’t built until 1959. “It might be a good idea to keep our eyes open. ” “Because land sure isn’t getting any cheaper,” added board member Bryant Lee. He warned that an outside developer has been buying up roadside acreage in the Flint Hill 1 area. “With just one 400-house subdivision, we’d need a new school.” “We’d need a new school division!” maintained Dr. Gangel. ‘We’d do our best, but with one big subdivision, we’d be overwhelmed.” Again emphasizing the importance of planning for growth, Mrs. Massie added: “I don’t want to see us get caught unprepared like many of our neighbors have been, and have to use umpteen trailers and umpteen prefab buildings.” This emergency response to space needs is a waste of the taxpayers’ money, she contended. Recycle Continued from page 1 aluminum and newspapers. It is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday. For residents who travel into the city, the Prince William County landfill in Manassas has a recycling station. They will pay money for aluminum on Tuesday and Saturday from 1-4:30 p.m. At other times, the aluminum can be dropped off, but there’s no money offered. Mrs. Stamer also said that Reynolds Aluminum Co. is supposed to open two recycling centers in Culpeper and Manassas in the near future. The sites will be advertised when they open, she said. County Administrator John Me Carthy said that although the suspension of the monthly recycling day is a temporary setback, ‘1;he board and the county are still committed to recycling.” He said that the county has investigated other options to keep the program going, but that the combination of a depressed market for the recyclables and the distance to Rappahannock has discouraged any companies from getting involved. He reported that he has not yet received the recycling contract back from Mr. Stinnett, “but he assured me that there was no problem.” “I’m still with it,” the county administrator added. “The minute we get the go-ahead to build the shelter (for the recycling center) we will start. I don’t think it will take much time. It’s not the construction that is holding things up — it’s dotting all the ‘i’s’ and crossing the ‘t’s’.” OUR SUCCESSFUL SALES AND/OR USTINGSIN1988 -OVER $6,000,000 IN VOLUME. 123 Wooded Mountain acres with streams and views ... $105,000.00 25 Acres of seclu*1' stream, stone wall.45,000.00 25 Acres, Mi - unty at the foot of Old Rag Mountain...130,160.00 10 Acres tucked in neighborhood ofat glomes .SVr....,.35,000.00 18 + Acres, \)’e wooded wlfrontage on river .SU.r.114,000. 25 Acres pretty, private and primativo ^.60,000.00 8 Acres wl mountain cabin; deck ional Park .100,000.00 Little Log and frame yard and garden Historic commercial building, 6,000 sovp Views forever, 'd acres overlooking Ski Lodge 7 + Acres, Stocked trout stream, road fm^ge .SOU).... 60,000.00 .140,000. 61,000.00 16,000.00 Lovely 19 th Crvt T)■ick Manor House on 73 rolling acres .1,135,000.00 Weekend hideaway on 12 acres up i" Ai T) ow .......SV.V.138,000.00 Old Rag view from Sce~L.
