BLEWITT and LOU HATTER Arundel Newspapers Staff Writers Rappahannock County joined the rest of Virginia in electing J. Marshall Coleman as the Republican gubernatorial candidate to challenge the Democratic nominee Lt. Gov. L. Douglas Wilder in November. Voters will apparently have a clear choice of philosophies in the genef-al election on Nov. 7, since Mr. Coleman unabashedly courted the most conservative wing of the state GOP on the way to his upset victory of former Sen. Paul S. Trible. Statewide, Sen. Trible lost to Mr. Coleman by two percentage points, 35 to 37 percent. The victory was the comeback story of the year, since early polls last year showed .Mr. Coleman trailing the well-knowrn former Senator by as much as 40 percentage points. In Rappahannock County, Mr. Trible finished a distant third to both Mr. Coleman and Congressman Stanford Parris. With only 13 percent of the county’s 3,200 eligible voters casting ballots, the returns took Registrar Ruth Kilby only 45 minutes to compile. Mr. Coleman received a total of 167 votes, 38 percent of the ballots cast. He was trailed by Rep. Parris, who polled 34 percent (147 votes). Mr. Trible failed to win at any of the county’s six precincts, finishing with 117 votes, or 27 percent of the total. Voter turnout in the county was low, as it was across the state. Less than 15 percent of the eligible voters cast ballots Tuesday in the first Republican gubernatorial primary in 40 years. Apparently, the largely negative and expensive media campaign failed to excite voters in the Commonwealth. See COLEMAN, p. 18 Insurance issue resolved By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer There were no tax protestors at the public hearing on the county’s proposed budget last Wednesday, despite the advertised 75-cent tax rate. The closest to a protestor was former Supervisor Newbill Miller, who told the board, “I came to discuss budgets in the future. Most of what you’ve done now is a done deal. But somewhere along the line the government has got to stop Vdising taxes.” • Governments at all levels are doing studies to “find more sources of income, when it would be easier to cut spending,” he said. Mr. Miller noted that the supervisors are thinking of adding a planner to the county staff in the future. “Then you’ll want to add a secretary. You don’t need to expand the county government. There are a tremendous number of people working for the county now. “You’re talking about another agent in the county agent’s office,” he said. “That’s another growth in the county government. They’re built in and then you don’t ever get rid of them. ” The rest of the speakers last Wednesday were constitutional officers and their employees who asked that the county’s contribution towards their health insurance not be cut from the current $1,545 per year to $1,300. Peggy Ralph, the county’s deputy clerk, told the supervisors, “When we came to talk to you Monday about our health insurance benefit, I was personally offended that we were greeted with hostility by the board member from Hampton District. We are not the first group nor the last group to address you who were not on the agenda. We could not leave our offices unattended. I want to thank Mr. Gilkey, who initiated the motion to let us speak, and the three members who voted for it. “Teachers’ salaries were compared to constitutional See INSURANCE, p. 14 Power pole replacement draws protest By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Potomac Edison’s program to replace utility poles on its 34,500 volt transmission line between its Sperryville sub-station and Front Royal is allowed under the county’s zoning regulations, according to County Administrator John McCarthy. But it has Flint Hill resident Bruce Vierling hopping mad. Mr. Vierling thinks that the utility’s plan to replace existing utility poles with new ones which are 10-15 feet taller is enough of a blight on the landscape. But adding a shiny stainless steel grounding wire along the top of the poles is even worse, he says. The added height means that the poles will be visible from farther away, and the shiny wire glinting in the suh will draw attention to them even more, he maintains. Mr. Vierling said he asked one of the utility’s workmen about why a dull finish isn’t put on the wire totnake it less conspicuous, and the man replied that the shiny wires would dull with time. According to Pete Jackson, Potomac Edison’s area maintenance supervisor, the pole replacement is just “routine maintenance” on a line which was installed in See POLES, p. 18 Rappahannock News photov'Cindy Mahan THE MAN OF THE HOUR, RCHS Valedictorian Wesley Jenkins receives congratulations from Susan Estes (left) and Sherry Burke. Class of '89 becomes history By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Last Saturday, Rappahannock County High School's Class of 1989 joined the school’s alumni. The 75 graduating seniors heard their commencement speakers exhort them to even greater efforts than they have already put forth. They were urged to resist the temptation to rest on their laurels, but instead to continue to strive toward greater knowledge and fresh opportunities. “There comes a time when we must stop fooling around,” Valedictorian Wesley Jenkins told his fellow graduates. “This is that time." Although he said he agrees that graduation from high school is a transition in life, Mr. Jenkins said he rejects the idea that he now faces w-hat is usually referred to in commencement addresses as “the real world—That’s not very accurate. School is part of the real world. ” More accurate, he said, w'ould be a description of the world alter high school as “more advanced. It takes more than 70 percent effort to survive.” Looking at the members of the class, Mr. Jenkins observed that “there is much leadership potential in this room.” He said he could envision, in the future, Dawn Johnson as a spokeswoman for the National Organization for Women, Harvey Fox as an award-winning reporter for the Washington Post, Eric Dunn offering endorsements for Nike products, “and we’ll all be working for Anthony Fudd, the MIT man!” Mr. Jenkins exhorted his classmates to "pretend you’re in the Army: Be all you can be . . . Don’t be satisfied with the present. Live for the future, because that’s where you will be tomorrow.” Mr. Fudd, in his salutatory address, compared his high school memories to a movie. “But what kind of movie would it be? A science-fiction horror movie, a romantic comedy, or an action-adventure thriller? “Probably a mix of the three,” he suggested, noting the facets of his high school experience were a blend of all those elements. “But a good movie requires more than a story line,” he added, recognizing the teachers who orchestrated the experience behind the scenes. In Hollywood, Mr. Fudd said, there are producers. Here they are our parents. “And the director,” he said, “we all know who He is—guiding us through our daily lives.” But the grand finale is not graduation from high school, Mr. Fudd continued. “We are all the stars of outown movies. But the rewards of our own lives will be fatmore than any Oscar. The curtain is closing on this production,” Mr. Fudd told his classmates. "It’s time to go out and begin the next act.” James Fountain, a history and reading teacher at Rappahannock County Elementary School for 2'A years, compared the students’ experiences so far to the team ef “Through, hope, there are always possibilities ... It doesn’t matter where one comes from. It's where he's going that counts. ” — James Fountain RCES teacher fort required to launch a space flight..

For Wakefield School,the commencement exercises in the school’s garden this Sunday evening, June 18, will be a benchmark. The class will be the tenth to graduate from the private preparatory school located in Huntly. “This senior class is notable for its school spirit,” interim headmistress Pamela Lynn observed. “Working under the adverse circumstances of our headmaster’s death at the beginning of the school year, the class demonstrated incredible amounts of school spirit and dedication to our headmaster’s ideals and See WAKEFIELD, p. 13 Rappahannock News photo/Lisa Currie LEADING WAKEFIELD S CLASS of 1989 are Valedictorian Tobias Dengel and Salutatorian Julie Whitworth.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmrnmmmmmm ———i ——mmmmmmmmmmrn From Across The State No surprises as Democrats nominate Wilder; convention highlights unity By MARY K. BLEWITT Arundel Newspapers State Writer Unity was clearly the theme of the state Democratic convention as the Democratic Party of Virginia made official its Wilder-Beyer-Terry ticket in Richmond Saturday. Over 3,500 Democrats gathered at the Richmond Centre to witness the nomination of Lt. Gov. L. Douglas Wilder for governor, Donald S. Beyer for lieutenant governor, and Attorney General Mary Sue Terry for reelection as attorney general. , Wilder, flanked by former Virginia governor and U. S. Sen. Charles S. Robb and Gov. Gerald L. Baliles, emulated a solid party candidate, accentuating the threeway division of the GOP gubernatorial race. With linked hands raised high, Wilder, Baliles, and Robb moved to disparage images of their past differences. “Why am I supporting Doug Wilder other than because he’s a Democrat?" asked Robb, who admittedly criticized Wilder’s loosely-knit 1985 campaign for lieutenant governor . “For the same reasons I supported him for lieutenant governor —qualifications, leadership, and experience — more experience than all three of his prospective Republican opponents combined.” Gov. Baliles too took jabs at Wilder’s opposition. He drew applause from the crowd when he said that listing the shortcomings of the Republican party was unnecessary because, “No matter what I say about them, it can’t be any worse than what they are saying about each other.” Addressing the banner-waving crowd. Wilder pledged to be “Virginia’s anti-drug czar” and to work to bring economic development to all of Virginia. In addition, he promised to continue gains made in education, environmental protection, and transportation. If elected. Wilder would make history as the nation’s first bl^ck governor. Beyer, a Falls Church automobile dealer who faces the better known state Sen. Edwina (Eddy) P. Dalton (D-12th District) for the lieutenant governor’s seat, emphasized his business experience. In a powerful, articulate speech, Beyer likened himself to Virginia’s founding fathers. “Before they entered public life, James Madison and George Washington were successful Virginia planters,” said Beyer. “And before he wrote the declaration of independence, Thomas Jefferson was, like me, a successful Virginia car dealer.” The Democrats portrayed Dalton as an inexperienced senator riding on the coattails of her late husband and former Gov. John Dalton. “Don Beyer has never passed a law in the state of Virginia, ” said state Sen. Moody E. Stalling Jr. (D-8th District) who nominated Beyer. “His opponent, who’s been in the state Senate fort wo years, has never passed a law in the state of Virginia.” Dalton was tagged “the Dan Quayle of Virginia” by state Del. Jean W. Cunningham (D-71st District) who also criticized the senator from Henrico for breaking a promise to her constituents by not finishing out her senate term. Attorney General Mary Sue Terry, the candidate who received the largest vote count during the 1985 election, echoed the call for a fight against illegal drugs. Terry is the founder and chairman of CADRE, the Commonwealth Alliance for Drug Rehabilitation and Education. Nominated by a CADRE high school member, Terry’s nomination was seconded by Sheriff John Brown of Loudoun County. Brown commended Terry for coordinating the state’s investigation and prosecution of operations associated with four-time presidential candidate Lyndon H. LaRouche Jr.. LaRouche allegedly secured loans under false pretenses to several thousand people and is currently serving a 15-year federal prison term for scheming to defraud federal tax collectors. “I called every office I could think of and talked to more organizations than you can imagine,” related Sheriff Brown, “and nobody would give us a hand — nobody until I called Attorney General Mary Sue Terry. Terry faces long-shot opposition from Sen. Joseph B. Benedetti (R-lOth District) who has criticized her for snoozing during a U.S. Supreme Court decision that affected Virginia’s pention tax plan. Despite the good cheer, the convention was shadowed by about protesting 200 allies of United Mine Workers who, with camouflaged arm bands and miner hats, turned their backs on Baliles during his key note speech. Baliles was smugged by the group for dispatching state trooper in the southern region of the state where miners continue to strike. Approximately 50 miners approached the podium during Wilder’s acceptance speech raising signs that said, “Pittston stole my health care.” Regardless of the small protest, the Democratic ticket radiated at their party convention, and any differences existing among the Democrats were hidden in the party cheers. Following the weekend’s events. Wilder, Beyer, and Terry began a joint tour throughout Virginia. The group was scheduled to begin their tour in Norfolk, then proceed to Northern Virginia, Charlottesville, Bristol, and Norton. Racing commission learns on job By MARY K. BLEWITT Arundel Newspapers State Writer . RICHMOND — The question, “What is a horse?” seems simple. Xhe answer, however, is not so obvious, as the Virginia Racing Commission learned., when it met last week in Richmond. . As matter of fact, there are at least seven definitions for the word “horse” found in racing regulations throughout the country. New Jersey’s racing commission defines a horse as a “filly, mare, colt, horse or gelding.” . 01803402Rules of racing definitions for Kentucky and Pennsylvania are more restrictive, defining a horse as a thoroughbred registered with the Jockev Club of New York. t !

This is a cause of great joy for you, even though you may for a short time have to bear being plaqued by all sorts of trials; so that, when Jesus Christ is revealed, your faith will have been tested and proved like gold—only it is more precious than gold, which is corruptible even though it bears testing by fire—and then you will have praise and glory and honor. ” St. Peter's Catholic Mission Washington, Virginia on regulations, and it’s a lengthy and difficult process,” said John H.

BLEWITT Arundel Newspapers State Writer RICHMOND — Avtex Fibers Front Royal Inc. failed to convince the state Air Pollution Control Board that its emissions of carbon disulfate do not pose a threat to human health at a hearing held in Richmond Friday. After ten hours of listening to arguments from both Avtex and the Department of Air Pollution Control and spending almost four hours in executive session “for legal advice,” the board declared Avtex to be in violation of the state’s air toxics regulations. Avtex was given 60 days to reduce carbon disulfide emissions by 75 percent and to submit a plan for emissions reduction. The plan must include modeling and monitoring as well as interim compliance dates approved by the executive director of the DAPC. At a formal hearing on April 28, the board determined that Avtex facilities emitted sufficient quantities of carbon disulfide to equal or exceed the state’s significant ambient air concentration (SAAC), a level that may cause or contribute to the endangerment of human health. Studies have shown that carbon disulfide may cause heart or nerve damage at some levels. The burden of proof then rested on Avtex to show that the SAAC does not threaten human health. “I don’t feel comfortable that I’ve been persuaded,” said board member Elizabeth H. Haskell during the hearing’s fourteenth hour. “There is a substantial burden of proof that I’m not sure has been met.” Each of the five board members criticized the Avtex case for not discussing the effects of exposure on the general public of Front Royal. At a public hearing in Warren County residents complained of nausea, headache, and asthmatic symptoms particularly when the unopleasant odor from the plant was strong. "It would have impressed me if you had appeared more sensitive to the health effects of the people,” commented Manuel Deese, board member. “Extra effort consulting with doctors would have been extremely helpful.” Requesting a relaxation of the state regulations, Avtex argued that Virginia’s air standards for carbon disulfide are inappropriately stringent. Much of the case focused on past studies conducted on carbon disulfide and on predictive modeling PUBLIC HEARING PROPOSED CABLE TELEVISION ORDINANCE The Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors will hold a public hearing on Monday, July 3,1989, at 7:00 p.m. in the Courthouse in Washington, VA, to consider a proposed Cable Television Ordinance. The purpose of this Ordinance is to regulate the application, award, and operation of Cable Television franchises within the jurisdiction of the Board of Supervisors. A complete copy of the proposed Ordinance is available for inspection at the Clerk's Office of Rappahannock County, in Washington, VA, from Monday through Friday from 8:30-4:30. A copy is also available for inspection upon request at the County Administration Office at the corner of Porter and Main Streets in Washington. ^eggett ofCufpeper Bigger than Ever! Don’t miss it!

Dr. Ernest Dixon, testifying for Avtex, attempted to discredit a series of studies that found carbon disulfide to be harmful at low levels, labelling them unreliable, flawed, and exceedingly cautious. “At low levels (carbon disulfide) just does not produce cardiovascular or neurological damage,” said Dixon. In addition, Dixon criticized the state’s safety formula for the general public whereby workplace safety guidelines are multiplied by one sixtieth. “This , empirical mathematical method creates a margin of safety that is far greater than warranted by the low toxicity of carbon disulfide at low exposure levels,” said Dixon. In contrast, the DAPC staff report stated that, “The factors used by Virginia are by no means the most conservative in use by regulatory agents . . . Virginia's acceptable ambient limit is one of the highest concentrations allowed." Avtex lawyer Clayton Walton was prohibited from including information on residential and non-residential areas on grounds that the information was irrelevant to ambient air concentration. Inappropriate meteorologists information may have lead to higher reported concentration, according to Avtex testimony given by Dr. Robert Tartiff, an environmental scientist from the Medical College of Virginia. J. Steven Sheppard III, assistant attorney general and representative for the DAPC, argued that the company had certified the reported information as correct. Data compiled by the DAPC modeling revealed that Avtex carbon disulfide emissions exceeded state concentration standards as many as four days in a row. The staff report emphasized that these levels were not highly unusual for Avtex. “The modeling results leave no doubt that the significant ambient air concentration . . . has been and will continue to be exceeded due to carbon disulfide emissions from Avtex,” according to the DAPC staff report. The DAPC recommended that the board refuse Avtex’s request to relax the standards, saying in their report that any relaxation of the existing standards would be “cont rary to the recommended safe inhalation dose for carbon disulfide recently issued by EPA Air Risk independent of this situation.” The department modeling, computer analysis based on figures released by Avtex, showed high concentrations of carbon disulfide frequently occurring in the area surrounding Front Royal, according to Charles E. Holmes, Air Toxics Program Coordinator for the DAPC. Air concentrations as high as 12 times those permitted by the state were modeled by the state department. Following the board’s decision, Walton said he did not yet know what Avtex’s response would be. He added, however, that an appeal is permitted under state statute. On July 1, 1988, Avtex submitted their air emissions of carbon disulfide as required under the Emergency Planning and the Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986. Avtex reported carbon disulfide emissions of 49 million pounds per year based on 1987 figures. The magnitude of the emissions drew attention from both the Environmental Protection Agency and the Virginia DAPC. In a recent emissions report released by the National Wildlife Federation, carbon disulfide emissions from Avtex comprised 38 percent of all reported emissions in 1987, placing Virginia fourth among state polluters. Avtex was also expected in Warren County Courthouse on Tuesday, June 13 for allegedly violating a consent decree with the state Water Control Board by continuing to pollute the Shenandoah River. The Front Royal based company admitted to violations, but has argued that the pollution was a result of unforseeable breakdowns at the facility.

THURSDAY, JUNE 15,1989 Editorial The right choice The Board of Supervisors is in a tough spot. It is faced with a massive, 48 percent increase in real estate taxes, with few choices available to ease the burden. To its credit, the board has refused to cut programs and personnel which have become necessary as the county grows. Although we suspect that most residents are not overjoyed at the prospect of paying nearly half again as much next year as they paid in taxes this year, there was only one speaker at last week’s public hearing to protest the increase. Perhaps it’s apathy, or resignation, that led to former supervisor Newbill Miller standing alone in his opposition to the increasing size and scope of the county’s programs and services. To be fair, no one spoke in favor of the increases either -- at least not directly. The county employees who did speak, however, made it clear that they don’t think it is right that they, in essence, take a pay cut next year because of the lower level of funding for their health insurance. We think they’re correct, and we’re glad the supervisors have apparently reconsidered their earlier decision to cut back on the funding for health insurance. Unfortunately, we don’t think this is the last time that the Board of Supervisors will face this problem. It is going to be an unpleasant choice: raise salaries and benefits to keep the county at least somewhat competitive with our neighbors or see the best people leave for more lucrative positions elsewhere. It’s not just a matter of salaries. Even if the county pays insurance for its employees, if they have family, coverage for them may cost an additional $100 a month or more—paid out of the employee’s pocket. That’s not pocket change potatoes if the person has several children who need food, clothing and shelter. Add to that rent or mortgage payments, utility bills and car payments, and the take home pay from an $18,000 a year salary starts to look pretty slim. In addition to better salaries, other nearby counties offer more fringe benefits. Some have dental insurance. Then there’s the matter of a retirement plan. How can we expect someone to move here and dedicate their professional life to the county if, when they reach retirement age, we give them nothing but a gold watch, a hearty handshake and a sincere “Thank you!” There’s an ancient, timeworn axion that says, “You get what you pay for.” That’s true in private business, and it’s true for public employees too. Our residents expect to have capable people managing the county, and those employees have a right to expect reasonable compensation in return. The members of the Board of Supervisors are going to take some heat for their decisions about the budget this year, specifically the large tax increase. They will also likely hear some criticism about their reversal on the health insurance question. But we think they’re right. The^county’s employees shouldn’t have to take a pay cut, in whatever form it’s presented. WHY NOT DROP THE WHOLE IDEA. WHY they have JO LOCH Up decent people/?

Letters to the editor Beef is back! To the editor: Beef is back. That’s good news to those of us who enjoy eating beef, whether it’s a lean, tender steak; a convenient, flavorful roast; or a burger with all the trimmings. It’s also good news to those, of us who raise cattle. Beef is big business. The beef industry is the single largest segment of American agriculture with sales of cattle and calves accounting for about 22 percent of total receipts from farm marketings. In Virginia cash receipts from cattle and calves totaled $420 million in 198b. And every dollar of cattle sales generates an additional $5 to $0 of business activity in the farm supply and food businesses. There’s an important reason why beef is back. Beef producers became part of a new era in the beef industry on October 1, 1986, when the national beef checkoff program began. Through the checkoff, beef producers invest one dollar per head of cattle sales in a program which funds beef promotion, education and research at both the national and state levels. June 27, 1989, marks the 1000th day of the national checkoff program - 1,000 days of solid progress for us in the beef industry. The result is a better, more nutritious and enjoyable product for consumers and improved profitability for the biggest single sector of the agricultural economy. R.S. ELLIS IV Chairman Virginia Cattle Board Help stop pet theft To the editor: A disquieting question: What can happen to your lost pets? Don’t lose your pet to thieves! Dog theft in particular is a business and it is growing. Thieves will resell your dog to a lab, to a dog fight ring, or - if you are lucky -- to you. We must not let this happen. To learn how to prevent dog theft in our community come to the special meeting on Saturday, June 17 at 11:30 a.m. at the Washington fire hall. FRANCINE D. NADLER Rappahannock Animal Welfare League Washington Thanks for support 1 o the editor: On behalf of the Sperry ville Volunteer Fire Department I wish to thank the community for supporting us at the May festival and for its great support at the Magic Show. Special thanks to those who do nated baked goods for both fundraisers, and to Maggie Rogers for the attractive posters. Your support is greatly appreciated. GREG WAYLAND Chief, Sperryville VFI) Assistance appreciated To the editor: As chairman of the committee which organized the Miss Rappahannock Beauty Contest, sponsored by the Sperryville Volunteer Rescue Squad, I'd like to thank all those who were involved and assisted with the event: David Huff for his special help in arranging the flowers on the stage, Nancy Leake for getting the contestants' gifts. Kirn Burke for typing the program, Linda Heeks for her talented calligraphy, and the Rappahannock County High School for allowing us to use its new auditorium and other assistance. I’d also like to especially thank the contestants who came out and participated, and their parents for their help. Without them we would not be able to put on this event. Thank you for your support. And, a special thanks to all the volunteer members of the Sperryville Rescue Squad, who once again came out when they were asked to give of their time for yet another fund-raising activity. Being a member of any organization takes loyalty, dedication and commitment, but being a member of a volunteer rescue squad takes these qualities not just from the members but also from their families—along with a great deal of understanding. Putting up with changes in plans at the last minute, cold dinners eaten long past suppertime, and climbing out of bed in the middle of the night to answer an emergency call from a neighbor is part of the “job” and accepted by all. But sometimes, telling the family that yet another weekend is committed to a fundraising activity stretches that understanding to the limit. The rescue squad is actively seeking members of the community who are willing to make a contribution to their neighbors by helping with our business and fundraising activities. As treasurer of the Sperryville Volunteer Rescue Squad, I know that there are many ways to help without being actively involved in running emergency calls with the squad. Those members dedicate a substantial amount of time for training to qualify as a driver or an EMT, and then serve again to raise money to keep us going. I invite any member of the community willing to donate their talents in business and fundraising-fo join our squad. We can use your abi* lities, and your efforts are every bit as necessary as the work of thi^ members who run calls. Please coo-| tact any member of the squad or self (987-8655) for furth^i* information about how you can helpi It is a contribution to the community which will be greatly appreciated bjj your neighbors. . fs SHERRY JOHNSObl Treasurer, Sperryvilld Volunteer Rescue SquacJ Top teacher salutes graduates By MARY V. BICOUVARIS Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Editor’s note: The following is a message to seniors graduating from the public schools of Virginia from Mary V. Bicouuaris, the 1989 National Teacher Of The Year. “Mrs. Bic," as she is affectionately known to hundreds of students, teaches government and international relations at Bethel High School in Hampton. The National Teacher of the Year program is sponsored by Good Housekeeping Magazine, the Council of Chief State School Officers, and Encyclopaedia Britannica. Mrs. Bicouuaris will represent America’s teachers during the year, traveling the tuition for appearances, lectures, consultations and other activities. Through its public schools and its public school teachers, the Commonwealth of Virginia has given you the best it has to give - a free public education. For the past 12 or 13 years of your life, my colleagues and I have done our best in classrooms across Virginia to see that you were given every opportunity to develop and achieve as human beings, learners, and citizens of Virginia and the world. We did our part. If we didn’t succeed with each of you at every turn, perhaps it was because our hope for you was greater than your hope for yourself. Teachers, you see, can only do so much. For successful learning to take place, students must be willing to learn, and they must want to assist in their own education. Through the combined efforts, then, of many people - your parents, your teachers, and yourselves - you have come to one of the milestones in your life - high school graduation. Now that everything is up to you, where will you go from here? I hope that you will continue to educate yourselves. There are, after all, two real purposes for education. The first is to become a well-rounded, well-informed human being. The second is to acquire the skills that will enable you to make a living. While some of you may not ever need to 7 improve, expand or further develop the skills that allow you to make a living, I hope none of you wil| deny yourselves the learning which will allow you to become complete human beings, and to accept your rightful place as involved citizens in our so* ciety. ; I believe that America is the greatest coun, try on the face of the earth. I hope you believ^ that too. And I hope you know that if you want tp make a difference in America, you can only hope to do it from within the mainstream. If you really want to make your community, your state, or your nation better, you must work within the sys, A tern. I also hope that when you become taxpayt ers, you will feel a responsibility to support public education the way that earlier generations of Americans supported it, making your basic education possible. In your lifetime, the world will move from the 20th Century to the 21st. The skills needed by you and your children to succeed and excel in the 21st Century will be different - more difficult, more technical, more precise - than those your parents needed. Be aware of that. Prepare yourSee SALUTE, p. 14

GOP primary cheated no one By JOHN GOOLRICK Rappahannock News Special Writer Truth in packaging isn't necessarily the law in politics or political punditry. But I want to make it perfectly clear, as one politician used to say, that this column is being written three days before the Republican gubernatorial primary and won’t be printed until after the results are in. Former Sen. Paul Trible has managed to sit on a theoretical lead so long that it appears to be slipping away from him at this moment. If he loses it will be because he did not take advantage of his statewide name recognition to effectively let Virginians know why he wants to be their governor. I was among those who felt Republicans should hold a primary to avoid the distinct possibility of an intra-party bloodbath that comes too often with a hotly contested mass meeting-convention process. There are those who contend the negativism of the primary, the tendency of the three candidates to ignore talking about issues and Democratic shortcomings, and the public apathy about it have demonstrated it would have been better to have a convention. I still respectfully disagree. Certainly, I think all three candidates squandered their opportunities to take a clear message to the electorate and set the stage for a fall showdown with Democratic nominee L. Douglas Wilder. Sen. Trible took comfort in the numbers game although organizations polling for a statewide Republican gubernatorial primary in Virginia were into a brand new game. Congressman Stan Parris probably did the best media job of all and tried valiantly to present himself as the candidate who would be most acceptable to the supporters of his foes. In the campaign’s closing days, Parris was superb as he flitted around the state by helicopter. Former Attorney General Marshall Coleman constantly and vigorously attacked Trible, Figuring he FATHER’S DAY BREAKFAST Treat Dad on his special day to a breakfast at Flint Hill Fire Hall Sunday, June 18 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. All-you-can-eat Sausage, gravy, biscuits, bacon, eggs, apples, potatoes, fruit, coffee and tea Adults $5 6-12 $4 and under 5 free Sponsored by: Flint Hill Fire Department FATHER’S DAY SPECIAL The Green Machine’ When it s an tdQcr f-“-T7\ When it's a Weeder/Cultivalof I wncn ii s a Power Blcwcr I 'JirpiftuirfiJMn II When it's a I Snowthrowcr \ When it's a Brush Cutter WHEN IS A STRING TRIMMER MORE THAN A STRING TRIMMER?

Swan, Jr. & Co. , 201 S. East St., Culpepei 825-8371 Old Dominion Politics had to knock down the front-runner if he was to stand any chance of victory and knowing this was his last political hurrah if he lost. Yet while none of the campaigns will ever be cited as textbook examples of making issues clear and providing the momentum for a Republican to take on Wilder, they weren't all that dreadful either and undoubtedly less divisive than the other process would have been. And though some might scoff at the voter turnout - I’m estimating 260.000 - at least 10 times more Republicans participated than would have been the case. If the more arcane process had been used to select the candidate, media coverage would have been vastly reduced since most of the action would have been taking place behind the scenes as the candidates honed in on handfuls of people who might get themselves elected delegates to the state convention. Surely, the primary winner can take comfort in the more than 200.000 votes he should have as a base come general election day. In 1985, Gerald Baliles was elected governor with about 750,000 votes. A Republican candidate with the primary base and a proper campaign can attract conservative independents and Democrats and Republicans who didn’t bother to vote in the primary. Lt. Gov.1 Wilder is unscarred by any necessity to battle for the nomination as Baliles did four years ago. That may be a mixed blessing, though. The rough and tumble of a contested nominating process requires those running to put together campaign organizations and test them in the heat of combat. Baliles was able to winnow out those who did not match his expectations. If Wilder has staff people who don’t measure up, he won’t find out about it until the fall of the year. I’ve heard some Republicans griping about the 10 million or so the three candidates spent in the primary. My reply is. “So what? Unless you contributed, it’s not your money they’re spending and there's lots more where that came from." There’s no danger the GOP nominee won’t be able to raise the money needed for a general election campaign, particularly since fat-cat contributions can give all they want in a state election unlike the restrictions imposed in federal elections. The bottom line of the primary, whoever the winner, is that no Republican can say his man was cheated out of the nomination by some shady back-room dealings. The candidates took their case to the voters and the Republican voters spoke. That is a true democratic process unlike the mass meetingconvention process that often hinges on fights over obscure rules and the ability of presiding officers to control meetings. Will Virginia Republicans be able to unite after a primary in which name calling was the most outstanding feature? Maybe a few disgruntled souls won't back the nominee, but generally speaking the winner will suddenly take on an aura of greatness to most of those who supported one of the two otht'r candidates. Nobody is more quickly forgotten than a defeated politician and nobody attracts new attention more quickly than a successful one. After all, not many Republicans are going to want to be on the doo-doo list of the man whoVnay be the next Governor.

Culpeper native praised by Surgeon General By CATHY SMITH Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Since June 15 is National Fitness Month, Beverly Payne Chesser, a native of Culpeper, VA, host of TV’s “Beverly Exercise”, and president of Beverly Exercise TV Corporation, a non-profit (educational) organization, wishes to share with readers a portion of a letter sent to her by U. S. Surgeon General C. Everett Koop, MD. Dr. Koop’s accomplishments will certainly be remembered by everyone. “It has been one of my goals as Surgeon General to convince the American public that they hold the key to good health by evaluating their own lifestyles and eating habits. I salute your efforts and dedication in working to achieve this goal as well. It is gratifying to learn that Culpeper is joining you in promoting public awareness of this important issue. By involving all segments of the community . . . Culpeper is setting an example for the rest of the Nation,” Dr. Koop’s letter read. “Again, let me express my appreciation for the work that you and many other volunteers across the country are doing,” the Surgeon General added. Dr. Koop also expressed regret he was unable to attend the cele bration of the release of Mrs. Chesser’s book, Your Health Coach, and the tribute by her hometown of Culpeper for her accomplishments in focusing national attention on the_ important issue of disease prevention. She set up a $1,000 scholarship while here for the tribute. “Beverly Exercise” is seen locally on WTKK Channel 66 at 7:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. weekdays. Mrs.. Chesser also provides nutritional data during workouts. To order her book, Your Health Coach, or her exercise and nutrition tapes, call (803) 225-5799 or write to her at P. O.

Use cooked egg yolks in ice cream WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Department of Agriculture home economists are advising cooks planning to make homemade ice cream to use a recipe in which the egg yolks r are cooked and not raw. Homemade ice cream is a popular dish, and many families will be making it, during the summer months. Because of the danger of contamination of egg yolks with Salmonella bacteria, the ice cream will be safer if the yolks are cooked. “We recommend that the liquid base reach a temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit,” said Sue Templin, a home economist who answers THE FENCE MASTER Fencing built with quality and pride Farm and Estate Specialists Maining-ali types 30 years experience with modern equipment Free estimates 703-349-0367 or 1-800-541-1492 FOR SALE TO HIGHEST CASH BIDDER ISO SHARES MIDDLEBURG NATIONAL BANK STOCK Contact Trust Department MARSHALL NATIONAL BANK AND TRUST COMPANY 703-364-1559 Call for further details as to submission of bid and expiration of sale offer. v J questions on the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline.

Custard success hinges on^precision By SANDRA R. RICHARDSON Extension Agent, Home Economics A good custard can stand alone or serve as the base for quiches, sauces, ice cream, cold souffles, and puddings. Custard is made up of three basic ingredients - eggs, milk, and sugar and cooked until the egg binds the mixture into a smooth mouth-watering taste delight. As any cook cracks an egg, they can observe the sticky, slimy white and the golden ball forming the yolk. Each part has its own characteristics and contributions to make to a custard, but both are alike in their reaction to heat. As they cook, they become the supporting structure of custards. Success with custards in any form is the result of only two rules. The first is simply to follow the correct proportions of yolks, whites, and milk as the directions indicate, mixing well if you want a less firm custard, or until the eggs are just mixed with the sugar or perhaps one in which it has become firmer and could be molded. The second is to be patient with the heat. The two work together as the amounts depend on the way the custard is cooked, either softly in a pot until it almost boils, or baked in the oven. ■■ * Over the stove soft or “boiled" variety of custard achieves a gentle creaminess. The baked method finds the custard gently insulated by a hot water bath to prevent exposure to the direct heat and overcooking. The white of the egg serves to strengthen the mixture and the yolk contributes the qualities of richness and tenderness. Eggs are very sensitive to both temperature and long term heat exposure. They form a solid congealed state at a surprisingly low temperature - 158 degrees for the whites and near 180 degrees for the volks. Unprotected by fiber or fat, the white is pure protein (called albumin) and toughens, shrinks, and shrivels early in cooking. The yolk is slower to harden, being a concentrated form of fat in addition to its other nutrients. This bastes the protein, so to speak, enabling it to withstand higher) temperatures before solidifying. Curdling, sweating, and cracking argdmree undesirables custard-makers face if they fail to acknowledge these properties of eggs. All are avoidable. Curdled or curd-like is not related to the milk in the custard, but the eggs - whole or separated - used and abused in the custard. Taken out of their suspension in the mixture by too high a heat, the egg particles contract and harden, forming lumps that hold no liquid. The creaminess is lost; the custard is more like a soft scrambled egg. Prevention of curdling is as easy as using a candy thermometer in the custard mixture to show when the critical temperature is at hand. A basic consideration is using a double boiler for slow, controlled cooking or a thick pan for even heat distribution.' Another is a ready-standing bowl to pour the curdling mixture into at the moment one realizes the mixture has gone too far. Wicking the steaming custard in the bowl can bring down the heat and rescue the mixture from permanent damage.

Arrowroot and cornstarch, which thicken and cook at below-boiling^ temperatures, or fiber are used/’ sometimes in combination to lessen the gluey effect of the latter. Sweating and cracking may occur j in a custard that has not curdled, for they are caused not by too intense a heat, but by too much heat over too long a period of time. The protein in the eggs twists up and wrings out a drop of sweat from the ordeal, or shrinks as though drying up, like cracks in the parched earth. Testing baked custard about 10 minutes before its cooking time is over can prevent this; for often metal or glass containers accelerate the cooking more than thick ceramic custard cups. Slide a knife in the side of the custard; if it comes out clean, the custard is done. If the middle is not as firm as the edge, it will be by the time the custard has cooled, and chilling w ill finish off the setting. A rule of thumb for baked custard is to set the dish in a pan of hot w ater that reaches 2/3 up the sides of the dish of custard, for 45 min. at 325 degrees for up to two-cup quantity. As the heat in the bath can creep up and boil the water, it is best to check' -he pan a few times while the cus-’ tard is cooking. Add a few ice cubes ’ if the water looks too hot. While true custards are thick" ened by eggs along, the following recipes can all come under the head*ing of custards. Soft custard 4 egg yolks 1/4 cup sugar Pinch salt ; 2 cups scalded milk infused with; 1 vanilla bean or 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract Beat yolks slightly and add sugar and salt. Remove vanilla bean from milk and stir a little of hot milk into the yolks to warm them. Return egg mixture to pan of hot milk. Cook, stirring constantly over very low heat until custard coats back of spoon. A test for readiness is to draw a line through the custard on the back of the spoon with your finger. If the custard remains on each side of the line, the custard is thick enough. Remove custard from burner when testing to avoid boiling it. Do not let the pan rest on burner a moment longer than necessary, and stir it off heat to cool it down. Some ‘ heavy-bottom pans can hold enough heat to curdle custard as it stands. Add vanilla extract now; if added at the beginning it would become bitter. Strain and cool custard before using. It will thicken as it cools. Baked custard 4 whole eggs 6 egg yolks 8 T. sugar Pinch salt 3 cups hot milk, infused with 1, vanilla bean or 1 tsp. pure vanilla ex-f tract ) Break eggs into bowl, add sugar, and salt, and whisk until just com-, bined.

Journal Rose Ann Sharp takes reins at CCLC The new executive Director of the Child Care and Learning Center is not a new face in the county. She is not new to the field of education. She is not a new to running a business. She is not even new to the Learning Center. The new executive director is Rose Ann Sharp. “I am very excited about working here. I feel that I can approach this job from many different angles: from that of a parent, from that of a previous Board member, from that of a trained educator, from that of a business manager. I feel that a director in any organization of this size really needs to be a jack-of-all trades. I am hoping that my past experiences will be of benefit to . the Center.” Rose Ann and her husband Alex are apple growers and packers. They own Skyline Cold Storage in Sperryville, live on Mountain Green Farm in Washington, and rent several apple orchards throughout the county. They have three children, ages 7, 4, and 10 months. Rose Ann, a graduate of the University of Virginia with a B.S. in Special Education, took a break from teaching at the birth of her first child. “Lauren, our oldest daughter, started attending The Learning Center when she was two years old. At the time, I was looking for a place that could offer her an opportunity to play with other children - a luxury not to be taken lightly in a rural community. I was delighted to find that we had a day care/preschool in our county. I was not a working mother at the time. “Since then, I have also taken advantage of the Center as a day care facility - a safe and stimulating home-away-from-home in the hours that I worked with my husband in our growing business,” Mrs. Sharp said. Rose Ann Sharp’s experiences in the field of education are rather diverse: she worked with an infantstimulation program in Charlottesville, a Title I kindergarten class in t Newport News, a GED class at Woodrow Wilson Rehabilitation Center, junior high and elementary school classes in Rappahannock and Culpeper counties, and childbirth classes and aerobic exercise classes for adults locally. “I see one of my responsibilities as executive director here to be staff development - helping train teachers to teach. We have a very positive and enthusiastic staff here which I am finding a joy to work with.” This is the thirteenth year of operation for the Child Care and Learning Center, founded in 1976 by Camille Harris. The number of children served has grown from 10 to a tbtal of 88. “One of the facts that I am proudest of here is that this Center has no mortgage. We have raised over the years enough money from individuals donations, private foundation grants, and fundraising activities to pay for our current facility. This has been done without federal money. Our facility has not cost the taxpayer a cent, the new director pointed out.” Rose Ann attributes the fundraising success of CCLC to a very dedicated and hard-working Board. “I think the scarriest decision the Board of a non-profit has to make is : ADVERTISING ; DEADLINES ; LOCAL , DISPLAY ► ADVERTISING ► i ►Rappahannock News Ads^ ► Tuesday, 12 noon i y . < ► Combo Ads < ► (one or more papers) < ^ Monday, 3 p.m. < Real Estate Combo Ads < Friday, 4 p.m. i CLASSIFIED 3 ADVERTISING < Rappahannock News < Tuesday, 12 noon ^ Horse & Farm i Monday, 12 noon ^ Combo Classified Display^ Monday, 3 p.m. * Combo Word Ads i Monday, 5 p.m. i ROSE ANN SHARP to opt for growth. Our Board has done this repeatedly, confident enough in our ftiture to actually cosign notes. How many Board members do you know in an organization that are acutally willing to personally guarantee notes?” The vote of confidence has indeed paid off. Not only is the present facility already paid for, but a construction project is underway to build a large covered pavilion similar to that at the Rec Center on CCLC’s property. This building will be used as an outdoor classroom in the summer to accomodate the growing summer camp program the Center offers for the school age children in the summer. They also plan to make it available to the public for rental on weekends. “You asked me what my personal goals are here. I am currently working very hard to increase our scholarship fund. Although our current tuition does not even cover all of the costs and we must raise $20-30,000 a year to cover our expenses, the cost is still prohibitive for many families. By building up a scholarship fund that we can invest and use the income to sponsor more scholarship children, we will be able to make quality day care available to more needy families. Another goal of mine is to improve and increase the program that we have for school age children. I want to make parents aware that there is an alternative to having your child go home in the evenings to an empty house while they wait for Mom and Dad to come home from work. The anxiety that this must cause for both parents and children is a real concern. We have been working hard the last few months to improve and increase the number of children we can handle in our After School Club this fall. Mrs. Sharp has signed a contract to stay at CCLC until May of 1990. When asked if she intended to renew her contract then, she laughed. “Everybody wants to know how long I’ll be here, considering the track record of past directors. All I can say is that I’m not going anywhere. This is my home. I hope to continue as director here as long as I am able to be of some benefit.” Carnival time!

Conservation sign-up begins The ninth Conservation Reserve Program signup will begin July 17 and run through Aug. 4, according to Linda Henry, county executive director of the Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service. The Conservation Reserve Program offers farmers the opportunity to bid to rent their highly erodible cropland to the government for 10 years in return for an annual rental payment. The crop land must be established in permanent vegetative cover or trees. The program also offers a 50 percent cost-share in establishing the cover or planting trees. Previously, only highly erodible cropland cropped in two of the years between 19X1 and 19X5 was eligible. For this year’s program there are new provisions that allow land to be eligible without meeting this requirement; if the field or area has evidence of scour erosion caused by out-of-bank flows of water or wetland areas as determined by Soil Conservation Service. Cropland may be offered for CRP if either the eligible field or area floods-at least once every 10 years and has suffered crop damage as a result, or is an eligible wetland area. Residents interested in making a bid are asked to contact the Rappahannock County ASCS office as soon as possible so the initial work can be completed to determine eligibility prior to sign up. For more information contact the county ASCS office (675-3610) located on Gay St. in Washington. Custard Continued from page 10 until very creamy and light.

ARNOLD Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Wouldn’t you know, exactly the kind of photograph that I could not find in nearly 100 rolls of film at National Geographic Friday was right there waiting for me at the “Faces of Rappahannock” Show at the Middle Street Gallery. In Henry Eastwood’s “Etlan Store” three good old guys, baseball capped, warm the bench on the store’s porch and come to a chuckle as an even older guy coming out hand-pats the shoulder of a young woman customer on her way in. That’s the bare bones, but what makes the picture, as they say in the trade, is that one of the bench men is black, and so is the woman, and all are acting like they know each other in a nice color-blind kind of way. Jus’ small-place folks on a summer’s day, drinking in the birdsong, and in a second the store’s screen door will slap shut and the moment will be gone. Except that, thankfully, Henry Eastwood captured it for us forever. Maybe that’s my favorite, but certainly there are some others. Take the bizarre hand-painted photograph, “Flat,” by Francie Schroeder. Goodness knows what got her to concoct that little laughable nightmare, but she takes the world’s squarest car, the old Volvo 144, gives it a flat tire (which it deserves), peoples it with noisome kids who “help out” by pulling each other’s hair and swinging badminton rackets at each other’s heads, while the mother has what I think can only be a nervous breakdown. One must thank Francie Schroeder for giving some relativity to our owm hassles. For my money, the “stopper” of the show is June Jordan’s pastel of a young, or maybe old, black man, “Robert.” Beneath the brim of his New York Yankees baseball hat Robert’s eyes wander away from us - not weak, not strong, just gone someplace where we cannot quite seem to get to. His hands, folded gently on themselves for what looks like forever, reinforce the impression that Robert’s durability comes from some supportive inner solitude, of which we might well feel envy. The eyes have it in a couple the other “Faces” as well. In Sean Kilpatrick’s portrait of “Kilpo,” his father, the eyes, like Robert’s, do not engage ours directly. But where Robert may be listening to his inner quiet, James J. Kilpatrick seems listening to - in fact, may have just heard it, for don’t the eyes seem to widen - an IDEA. In Cynthia Mahan’s “Howard and Lakota” and Laurie Marshall’s “Young Girl (Latoya Porter)” the eyes are all ours, the first proclaiming pride of fatherhood, the second announcing with a certain likeable thrust of jaw, “this is me, and here I come!” I thought I had identified most of the remarkable images as I toured the Gallery, including the woman in Dan Lewis’ “Rappahannock Friends” whose attention is mysteriously diverted from those friends, and the. slack-shouldered, white open-toe sandaled EveryGrandmother in “Pearl Dodson” by Barbara Morse. ' But then some visitors who saw the lights on and dropped in after The Inn announced for Laurie Marshall’s “A Span of Five Generations” on their way out. So back I went to find it. And, wouldn’t you know, they had something. Like “Etlan Store”, “Five Generations” is plain, modest by design. Jus’ family perched on another porch, doing nothing but letting the camera see them. A range of expressions, a hint of surrounding, but just enough to give the person lucky enough to rediscover the print 50 years from now a way back into Rappahannock County of the 1980’s, and one captured moment therein. This “Faces of Rappahannock” is a pleasant show, not at all big by any means, but, as the song goes, “this could be the start of something. ...” Give it an “A" for effort if not always for content, and maybe pray a bit that we might all take some of the time these artists did to take a look at a unique place and some unique people.

RCHS Continued from page 1 rations of the last 12 years will provide the thrust, he said. “It is time for you to take over the controls of your lives — the controls of your destiny ... We cheer, and ask that you aim for the stars. “You have come a long way,” Mr. Fountain told the class, “but you have a long way to go. ” He warned the graduates to beware of three common causes of failure: physical weakness, mental weakness, and a lack of spiritual focus. “People who are truly brave learn to live with pain and suffering," he said, pointing to Franklin D. Roosevelt’s battle with polio and Helen Keller’s triumph over three handicaps as examples. Others fail because their minds are not focused, because they have no sense of purpose. “A mind unchallenged is a waste to the entire world,” Mr. Fountain said. He offered Winston Churchill’s life as a man who overcame an unhappy childhood to become one of the world’s greatest leaders. “The empires of the future are the empires of the mind,” Mr. Fountain quoted from Churchill. He was not only a part of history, the teacher added, “he wrote history. History is being made every day—are you willing to be a part of it?” Mr. Fountain offered the Greek myth of Pandora’s Box to illustrate the third failing, a failure of the spirit. “The lesson is that we are not always perfect—but we must hold onto hope . . . Without hope life becomes dull, and we stand still. And when we stand still, we actually take a step backwards. ” He suggested that “much can be gained by relying on the old saying, ‘Where there’s a will, there’s a way’. “Through hope,” Mr. Fountain told the graduates, “there are always possibilities ... It doesn’t matter where one comes from. It’s where he’s going that counts.” Superintendent David Gangel told the graduates that “none of us know” what the future holds. He suggested four points to remember: Continue to grow, build on the solid Rappahannock News photo/Lou Hatter ALL OVER BUT the shouting, graduate Jackie Settle (center) talks with Renee Leake (right).

"We don’t know what the future holds. But I hope that whatever you choose, you will do your best," Dr. Gangel said. If so, at the end of your life you can "look back and say. as Peter did to Timothy, ‘I fought a good fight; I finished my course; I have kept the faith’." Gesturing to the stack of diplomas beside the speaker’s podium. Dr. Gangel added, “You are about to receive your entry forms, your diplomas. Finish the course."

Jo» s riit si 025*8371 Cu'pcpc* STIHL rips for summer jobs BLACKSBURG - It is true, you can’t get a job until you get experience, and you can’t get experience until you get a job. But summer jobs for teen-agers are one of the best ways to get experience, and there are jobs for teen-agers, said a Virginia Tech faculty member who heads a career-search program for the state. Carl McDaniels, professor in Virginia Tech’s College of Education, listed some suggestions for youngsters interested in finding jobs.' “Contact your family and friends first,” he said. “That’s how most people get jobs. “Tell them you are interested in working and tell them what you can do — child care, food service, moving and storage - and what you are interested ift doing. “Your relatives and friends are the ones most interested in you,” Mr. McDaniels said. “They will remember you and think of you first if they hear of a job.” Contact the local Virginia Employment Commission, which has an office in Culpeper (825-8117) what is available in a locality. They often have special programs to help certain types of groups, such as teenagers from lowT-income families, find jobs. The job service manager of the Virginia Employment Commissioner’s Radford office reminded teenagers that they must be 16 years old to have a job and at least 18 years old for jobs that require the use of certain power equipment. “Be creative,” manager Melvin A. Fiel, said. “Take the initiative. Many teens advertise their services, such as lawn mowing and child care, ginia Tech Alumni Associaton Award, to a student planning to attend VPI: Anna Hudson Rappahannock County Lions Club Scholarship: Harvey Fox Dennis Wingfield Scholarship, awarded by the high school faculty to “a student who makes you want to keep coming back”: Dawn Johnson The RCHS Writing Award, established by syndicated columnist and Woodville resident James J.

Semmes Memorial Scholarship: Anthony Fudd Rappahannock County Garden Club Scholarships: Wesley Jenkins, Melissa Payne Julia Boddie Education Award: Melissa Payne Amissville Ruritan Club Scholarship: Wesley Jenkins by handing out posters in their neighborhoods. That helps younger people earn money.” Before school is over, look around for job listings posted by the guidance office. Some businesses will ask schools to list them for students to contact about jobs such as child care, yard work, and others. Ask school guidance counselors and teachers if they know of any summer jobs, Mr. McDaniels continued. Always check the classified ads in newspapers. Companies that hire people for summer work will advertise and tell whom to contact to apply for openings. Go to the employment office of large businesses that might be hiring temporary summer workers and ground-maintenance workers, Mr. Fiel said. Older teen-agers might consider going to where there is summer work, said Mr. McDaniels. There are many places in Virginia that have seasonal work. Many resort areas,,beach areas, parks and tourist attractions will hire teen-agers for many types of jobs. But also remember, when you travel to work, it could get more expensive to live there than at home. Some youngsters who go to a resort area usually earn enough for all their needs and some extra for the school year. But for many of them, the experiences and education of living and working away from home are the most valuable parts of the summer job. Go to places that are regularly seeking help. Many businesses have a high turnover rate for entry-level jobs and are often seeking help. Check them out several times. Go to places that are offering what interests you or that take advantage of skills you have. If you are interested in sports, try the local recreation department; music, try the music store; If you like the outdoors, try the buildings and grounds department of local industries or a nursery business. If you like writing, contact newspapers. “When you can get a job doing what you like to do, the chances are good you will enjoy the job - a good situation when you are selecting an f occupation,” said Mr. McDaniels. Summer employment might offer a chance to try a job you think you might enjoy as a career. Mr. McDaniels has been helping Virginia youngsters to learn what kind of work interests them for many years. For the past 10 years he has directed the Virginia VIEW program - the Virginia Information Delivery System. This is a program that helps people learn about jobs and the education and skills they require. It also is a way to help youngsters assess their own skills. The Virginia VIEW program is available in 1,200 locations in high schools and community colleges across the state. 1 | mil; u mST'&MZI Playing thru June 25 on the campus of Shenandoah College & Conservatory of Music Winchester, Va.

Wakefield 'ontinued from page 1 k toward the school in general.” Mrs. Lynn, the widow of the late Dr. William Lynn Jr., who died suddenly just days before the school opened last September, said the Class of 1989 “seemed to understand that part of the mantle of responsiblity the late headmaster wore was inherited by each member of the school body." With respect for Dr. Lynn’s leadership, Wakefield’s valedictorian, Tobias Dengel, and salutatorian, Julie Whitworth, said that among the memories the Class of 1989 will carry into the future are the happy times they shared with Dr. Lynn. His spirit, they said, will be present as the honor student march with their classmates and receive their diplomas. Eight Rappahannock County residents' will be among the 27 graduates, including Jennifer Anderson, Isabel Ford, Gafirielle Lee. Alexander Smith, Christine Smith, and three boarding students, Samer Hassan, Mikhel Mannil and Kerry Nuti, who have been living in the school lodge in Flint Hill. Valedictorian Dengel, the son of Ottmar and Gisela Dengel of Front Royal, has attended Wakefield since the first grade. In his 12 years at Wakefield, he has been honored with the William Lynn Award for Academic Excellence, has been an active participant inhe school’s sports program, including soccer, skiing, basketball and horseback riding. He was also been active in extracurricular projects, including serving as president of the student government association and editor of the award-winning school literary magazine, Talisman. After a seven-week summer backpacking trip across Europe, Mr. Dengel will join other freshmen at the University of Pennsylvania, where he plans to pursue studies in technology and management. The class salutatorian, Julie Whitworth, has spent three and a half very active years at Wakefield. She capped her academic accomplishments this spring by being selected as a National Merit Scholarship Finalist. ■ The daughter of F. Dixon and Kay Whitworth of Winchester, Miss Whitworth has been the recipient of numerous honors during her years in Wakefield's secondary program. She was honored with the Wakefield Leadership Award, its All-Around Girl award, the William Lynn Award for Academic Excellence, a writer’s award, the Greek award, and served as editor of the school’s yearbook and Talisman's poetry editor. She was also a member of the field hockey and ski teams. After several weeks of work at Shrine Mount in Orkney Springs, a camp for the creative arts, Miss Whitworth will attend college at Dartmouth in Hanover, New Hampshire. The commencement exercises, which will begin at 6 p.m., will be moved inside to the auditorium in the event of bad weather. A reception in the garden, hosted by the Wakefield Parents’ Association, will follow the graduation ceremony. The commencement speaker will • be Russian-born Venezuelan businessman Harry Mannil, whose son Mikhel is a member of the Class of 1989. The 68-year-old automobile industry tycoon led a colorful life before settling in South America and becoming one of its, as well as the world’s, leading political and economic trendsetters. As a young man, Mr. Mannil escaped from Bolshevist Russia into Germany. Unhappy with the Naziled government of his new home, he fled again, this time settling in Venezuela. His varied past has brought him into contact with leading political and economic figures around the world, including Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev. "It will be interesting to have him talk with our students,” Mrs. Lynn said, “and give them and international perspective—not just east and west, but north and south as well.” The senior class voted to abide by the school’s unwritten tradition and wear the school’s blue blazers with white slacks, and white dresses, for its graduation ceremony, saving their caps and gowns for later graduations when they complete their studies in higher education, Mrs. Lynn said.

Sports and Outdoor Life Summer baseball season in full swing The county’s Little League baseball season is off to a flying start, with the rains of early May having given way to beautiful weather for the national pasttime. The league is larger than ever this season, according to Butch Zindel, one of the volunteer coaches. The league features a consolidated arrangement between the Amissville and Rappahannock Little League teams, which all play a round-robin schedule. In Amissville, interest is up over any previous year, with more than 100 children participating. The Rappahannock League has also seen more participation than in years past, although not on the scale of its neighbor to the east. There are teams in four age divisions, from the Babe Ruth League, for teenagers, the Bambino League for kids 10-13 years of age, and the Minor League for young ballplayers 8-10 years old. And for the real serious youngsters who want to start baseball early, there’s the T-Ball League for those just leamimr the fundamentals at ah early age. “The T-Ball teams,” said Cheryl Diggs, “are all doing well. Amissville’s Tigers and Bear?"1tT}d Rappahannock’s Lions and Family Focus are all playing hard and learning the game. Keep up the good work!” T-Ball is a modification of traditional Little League for youngsters up to eight years of age who are just learning the game. Instead of batters facing a pitcher their own age, the pitching duties are assumed by the team’s coach. This change gives the youngsters a better chance at hitting the ball, rather than facing an equally young and often uncontrolled pitcher. And, the teams don’t keep score, stressing instead that the players learn the fundamentals and have fun, rather than worrying about who won and who lost. The Babe Ruth League is new this y'ear, according to Mrs. Diggs. Several times in past years there have been attempts to start a league for the older youngsters who have outgrown the Bambino League, but it’s never been successful before. This year, not only has there been interest, there were enough kids signed up to make three teams for the league. “It looks like it’s going to work out well this year.” Leading the Babe Ruth League so far are the Rappahannock Panthers (related to the RCHS team in name only) with a record of 2-1. Close behind, however, the Amissville Blue Jays stand in second place, undefeated at 2-0. The Amissville Mets trail in third place with an 0-3 record. The Bambino League is also larger than ever before this season. In past years the league has only fielded three teams between the Photo courtesy of Butch Zindel SWINGING AWAY, the Amissville Mets" A1 Kellert bats against the Blue Jays in Babe Ruth League action. Catcher Mike Cooke and umpire Shawn Wayland await the delivery. Amissville and Rappahannock leagues. This year there are five teams; three from Amissville and two from Rappahannock. In the Bambino League, the Amissville Astros lead the division with an undefeated 3-0 record. The Rappahannock Red Sox are also off to a strong start, sitting in second place with an undefeated 2-0 record. The Amissville Blazers and Rappahannock Yankees are tied for third place, sharing 1-2 records. They are followed by the Amissville Bulldogs, who are still seeking their first win after three defeats. In the Minor League, the Rappahannock Braves lead the league with a perfect 3-0 record so far this season. In second place are the Rappahannock Indians, sporting a 1-2 record to this point. And trailing in third place are the Amissville Red Legs, who have yet to put a winning game in their record book, standing at 0-2 for the year. Mrs. Diggs said that spectators can find games "nearly every night of the week." In Amissville, games are played at the Ruritan Club's Stuart Field on Route 211. The Rappahannock League plays its home games on the two fields at the Rappahannock County Elementary School. The Babe Ruth League, both Amissville and Rappahannock teams, play their games at the baseball field at the Rappahannock County High School. All games begin at 0 p.m. IT'S HERE AT LAST!

Dealer 707 Commerce Ave Phone: Front Royal, VA (703)635-4158 Although the regular season is scheduled to finish at the end of June, Mrs. Diggs predicted that rained-out games may stretch the season into the first of July. After the season is finished, there are playoffs which pit the top finishers against each other to determine the championship in each league. And after the championship series, there is an All-Star game, with players selected by the coaches in each league. Rounding out the season is a family picnic in late July, where trophies are presented and everyone talks baseball. “It’s fun and exciting," said Mrs. Diggs, who has three sons playing in three different leagues. “And we need the community’s support to keep the leagues and the teams going.” She cited the cost of uniforms, equipment and maintenance of the fields, the money for which must all be raised through donations. At Stuart Field, for example, Compton’s Excavating donated equipment and time to level and grade the ball diamond, but the league must raise the money to hydro-seed the field in the fall. And, parents and other volunteers have been installing fencing for the backstop and outfield. But for all the time and work involved, the American tradition of baseball continues. That old saying, “As American as baseball and apple pie” shows no signs of dying out — at least not anytime soon in Rappahannock County.

That’s not a fair comparison. Teachers’ salaries should be compared to employees’ salaries; constitutional officers’ salaries should be compared to school administrators, but the county employees’ salaries except for six positions are set by the state.” Addressing the health insurance issue, she said the county contribution to health insurance now comes to $129 per month. Under the proposed budget it would be cut to $108, and if premiums go up 26 percent, as is expected, “we will be out $55 per month. The state is giving us a raise, and the county is taking it away.” She said that if the county paid the full premium for its employees’ health insurance, it would amount to one-half cent on the tax rate. “There are only six employees paid by tax dollars without state reimbursement, and health insurance is the only benefit we receive,” she said. Treasurer F ranees F oster added, “I want to thank the board for taking the time to listen to us, and I feel Mr. Massie owes us an apology.” Commissioner of Kevenue Beverly Atkins agreed, telling the board, “I was deeply offended. Mr. Massie made me feel like we were constantly coming to you asking for things. All the constitutional officers live within the limited constraints of tax dollars. There are many things we could have asked for - like hot water. There is no hot water in the Treasurer’s office or my office if we want to wash our hands. We only asked for one thing. I care about my county.” “You already know how I feel about insurance,” Sheriff John Henry Woodward said. “The people with a family policy, this is really going to be a burden on those people. They pay out $207 a month now, with a 26 percent increase they’re really going to see a jump. “Last year, for the-first time this was 100 percent funded. I ask that this year it still be 100 percent funded,” he said. With no further comments offered by members of the audience, Chairman Hubert Gilkey asked for comments from the board. Hampton District Supervisor Mike Massie said, “People who have seen me work know how' hard I’ve tried to do things in an open outfront manner. The consitutitonal officers came when all the public had left and half the press had left. There was time to have gotten on the agenda. “I want to commend you for coming here and speaking your mind tonight", Mr. Massie said, “. . . (but) I can’t in good faith apologize to you.” Jackson District representative Ellis Bingham said, “I have to concur with the comments of the Sheriff and Peggy. It bothers me that we can’t afford to do the things I think we should be able to afford. That’s why we are starting the procedure for a reassessment. “We need,” Col. Bingham continued, “to evaluate the whole land use business because we have to increase our tax base . . . We’re going to try to separate the investors from the non-investors, maybe by having them submit their W-2 forms. We don’t w'ant to hurt the 157 farmers in the county; neither do we want you to subsidize the net worth of investors. “The money’s not there to do the minimum things,” the Jackson District representative avowed. “I don’t think the county has gone overboard. You know wThat your salaries are and Frances knows what mine is. “I think Mr. Millers comments were way off base. He’s been in this position for 25 years. He above all should know this. We’re trying to look five to ten years down the road. The pressures from outside counties may well warrant a planner. That could be the cheapest answer. This job is becoming almost a full-time position. That’s not what it was meant to be. "The people in the county deserve to have presented to them the whole story: what land use is costing us - no insurance or insurance less than last year . . . The people that just say ‘open space’ and ignore the people are not giving both sides. “One thing that really bothers me is taxing land at only $250 per acre. The county is shooting itself in the foot. What we don't take the federal and state government does. We’re going to look into this very heavily. If we don’t, I don’t see how we can hold the taxes next year at even 75 cents,” Col. Bingham concluded. County Administrator John McCarthy said he would have some changes in the budget to recommend. He said he would like the supervisors to increase the salary for the gypsy moth coordinator by $850. He said three people expressed interest in the job, but none were willing to work for the budgeted amount of $6,500. He said he would also recommend increases for advertising and travel allowances to reflect this year's experience. Paying more for employees’ health insurance wouldn’t draw out of surplus “if we don’t have to borrow $100,000,” he said. Mr. McCarthy noted that the 75cent tax rate included three cents to recover the $100,000 the county might have to borrow to get through the fiscal year. If the county can get through the year without borrowing, he suggested, the tax rate could be cut two cents, and the extra cent could pay for increased health insurance and the other increases he would recommend. The administrator told the board he also had at least one decrease in the budget to recommend. Thanks to the work of the county’s insurance consultant, the county will double its liability insurance and save over $2,000 from the amount paid this year, Mr. McCarthy said. Mrs. Ralph pointed out that teachers are getting an eight percent increase, and “the teachers get that the whole year.” The approximately five and a half percent increase for county employees comes “half in July and half in January. You're comparing apples and oranges.” "I don’t want to seem to be arguing," Sheriff Woodward said. “I had enough in my budget for the increase, but it was cut to $850. Since Wally’s not here (accountant Wally Cox), I’ll blame him. I did ask for enough. My lieutenant will get a $5 raise, but since he’s got a family policy, he won’t get that.” Stonewall-Hawthorn representative Robert Anderson commented, “At this rate practically everyone will take a pay cut.” “That’s not their fault, and it’s not ours,” Mr. Estes said. “I’d much prefer to do this on a dollar basis.” With Mr. Estes’ urging, the constitutional officers and employees in attendance agreed that they would settle for the county funding dollar amount next year as this for their insurance, even if it isn’t 100 percent paid. “This is w hy we need to increase the tax base,” Col. Bingham said. "Our goal should be to fund 100 percent for everybody. It’s a big drawing card.” Steakhouse Front Royal.

Tributes 77 Deepest love and appreciation to all those who have been so kind and thoughtful during our recent illness and loss. Thanks for each act of love and kindness Sincerely, Louise S Bailey Happy Father's Day to our Father, James Carroll Racer, Sr. We want to say we love you and wish you were here with us now Your two daughters, Beverly and Hope In memory of our son and brother, Roger Lee Woodward on his 43rd birthday, June 14. Little did we know this time last year, that it would be the last birthday we would celebrate together. We were just beginning to try and cope with the realization that we were going to lose our Mother, when God called you home too. I guess He knew she would need someone to cradle in her arms, so you were one of the chosen few. So Happy Birthday. Roger, for you did not go alone. For part of us went with you the day God took you home. We love and miss you so very much Roger. Dad, Millie. Judy & Buddy In memory of Charles E. Huff on Father's Day. This will be your third Father s Day in your new home up above. We miss you so very much, but we bet it's really wonderful seeing Jesus everyday. Gone are the days we used to share. But in our hearts you are always there The ' gates of memories will never close. We miss you more than anyone will ever know. Life goes on we know that's i1 true But it's not the same since we lost you. We love you. Happy Father s Day from your family.

Poles Continued from page 1 1939, and on which “age has taken its toll.” The utility hired an independent contractor to inspect all the poles along the line’s route, and “we are getting the really bad poles out now. “Our effort,” he .said, “is to assure better reliability of the electric service to Rappahannock County.” Mr. Jackson said he understood Mr. Vierling’s complaint. “I’d be the first to agree that the poles are ugly — but they are very necessary.” Mr. Vierling, he added, “is feeling the impact more, because it is visual. The poles pass right across his property.” In all, the maintenance chief said, about 50 property owners will be affected by the maintenance work on the transmission line. So far, he said, Mr. Vierling is the only one who has complained. But, Mr. Jackson added, he has no way of knowing how many of those landowners are aware of the utility’s plans. Mr. Jackson explained that the taller poles are necessary to bring the line up to the National Electrical Safety Code standards for clearances. In some places, he said, the line is too close to the ground. And another specification requires more clearance — five feet — between the neutral conductor on the line and the phased wires above it than is possible on the old poles. That clearance, the supervisor said, ‘improves safety for the linemen working on the wires. ’’ Another specification requires that the single conductor shield wire — the shiny steel one which runs along the top of the poles — be a certain height above the live wires. The shield wire. Mr. Jackson continued, is designed to protect the currentcarrying lines from lightning strikes. Such strikes are “the biggest problem we have." Along with the new poles, Mr. Jackson said, the old conductors are being replaced with larger wires to allow the line to carry more amperage. The bigger wires will allow the line to carry a larger load, a necessary improvement, he said, as more homes are built and more electricity is required. He was quick to add that the voltage on thfe line has not been increased, fchich would require a permit from the county. Mr. Jackson compared the increase in load-carrying capacity to a Mistakes are made According to the Virginia Extension Service, a recent nationwide study found that 98 percent of all hospital bills contained errors. The most common errors, the survey found, were overbilling for drugs, time in intensive care and the total number of days spent in the hospital.

The amount of the voltage is analagous to the size of the pump, the amperage, to the size of the pipes. To increase the capacity of the system, there are two options: increasing the size of the pipe, which allows it to carry more water, or increasing the power of the pump, which pushes more water through the pipe, Potomac Edison, Mr. Jackson said, opted for the first choice, increasing the size of the line, allowing the utility “to maintain existing service and serve more people.” He predicted that the larger cables would be sufficient to serve the utility's customers for the next "30 to 50 years.” Mr. McCarthy said that Potomac Edison had contacted him before the pole replacement began. In his opinion, the zoning administrator said, the upgrade is covered under the exemption which covers maintenance and repair of existing utility lines. “If the utility were planning a new right-of-way, or increasing the transmission capacity on the existing line, that would require a new permit." Mr. McCarthy explained. “There is nothing in the ordinance to preclude an increase in the height of the existing poles." The only poles which will be placed in new locations, Mr. McCarthy said, are those which will have to be relocated because of the widening of Route 211 between Washington and Sperryville. Mr. McCarthy said that his concern. when he was approached by the utility, "was whether they planned to increase the capacity of the line. One of my first questions was. Is this the first step toward an upgrade of the existing 34.5kv line?'.” Mr. Jackson, he said, assured him that was not the case. Mr. McCarthy said the utility had provided complete documentation of the entire project, including the location, design and specifications of each type of pole. Those plans, he added, “document that there is no increased capacity. What they are doing will not allow such and increase.” Mr. McCarthy said he told the members of the Board of Supervisors in the affected districts of the utility’s plans. And, the matter has been placed on the agenda of the board’s special meeting, set for next Monday, June 19, at 7:30 p.m. at the courthouse. Local talent spotlighted R A AC’s great summer event, the Rappahannock Talent and Variety Show, will go on stage this Saturday, June 17, with a dazzling array of impressive local talent. The show, also known as the Allstar Revue, has been a tradition in Rappahannock County for over a dozen years, providing a showcase for serious and silly acts. RAAC’s sponsorship gave the show a permanent home - the Gay Street Theater. Over the years, capacity audiences have seen gospel, pet tricks, belly dancing, home-grown comedy, orations, harmony, dramatic skits, stirring blues and instrumental performances ranging from rock and roll to acoustic. This year provides even more variety than usual. By special request, RAAC program chairman Charlie Tompkins will appear with Linda Orfila and Joe Butler for three traditional pieces accompanied by guitar. Fans of Charlie’s and Linda’s perfect harmonies will look forward to this rare appearance. Howard Coon, who has appeared in many dramatic productions at Gay Street, will read six originial poems. Those who enjoyed past a capella groups at the talent show will welcome a newly-formed singing group composed of Beth Levick, Carol Lucking, Sherrie Albrecht and Linda Orfila. A newcomer to the talent show, John Brandon will play two instrumental guitar numbers. Dick Pierson of Amissville, familiar to many for his knowledge of old music, will read poetry. Abigal Stage and Kami Rowan will present a dance accompanied by guitar. Students of Cathy Kiley’s drama class will perform several musical and comedy numbers, as well as a magic show. Other talented students will perform pieces on trumpet and clarinet. Leslie Nichols returns to the theater with two classical pieces for piano, and John Kovac will perform a harp solo. Guests at the annual performance always enjoy the homemade desserts provided by RAAC's bakers. Tickets for the show, which begins at 7:30 p.m., will be sold at the gate the night of the performance.

Coleman Continued from page 1 According to the Richmond Times-Dispatch, the $10 million spent by the three candidates in the hard-fought primary capaign broke down to about $25 for each of the 400.000 ballots cast. Mr. Coleman was the runaway wanner in the county's Amissville (Jackson District), Scrabble (Stonewall-Hawthorn) and Chester Gap (Wakefield) precincts. Rep. Parris won in Washington 1 Hampton) and Sperryville (Piedmont). The only close precinct was in Flint Hill (Wakefield), where Mr. Coleman and Mr. Parris tied with 19 votes each. Mr. Trible ran third there too. garnering IS votes. Statewide, Mr. Coleman defeated Mr. Trible by two percentage points. Mr. Parris, whose Northern Virginia base had lean voter participation, placed third among the trio with 2S percent of the votes. The number of Republicans to vote on Tuesday was greater than predicted. Approximately 280,000 people flocked to the polls during the thirteen-hour election day, exceeding Super Tuesday participation by 130.000 voters. In what has been called one of the most vicious and expensive primaries ever, Mr. Coleman began his campaign as a two time-loser. Early polls showed him 25 points behind Sen. Trible, a candidate who had never lost an election. On the attack throughout his campaign, Mr. Coleman labelled Mr. Trible a quitter for not running for re-election against Democratic U.S. Sen. Charles S. Robb. Over the weeks of campaigning, the badgering took its toll and by election day the nominee was a toss-up. “With your commitment, and your hard work and our experience, we will take Back the statehouse in 1990,” Mr. Coleman told a crowd of v ■ 1 BENNETT REALTY & AUCTION CO.

The fight has just begun for the new Republican nominee. The fierce primary may have ripped seams in the Republican Party of Virginia and some mending is necessary for the party to wear the robe of unity. Although both of Mr. Coleman’s rivals have pledged their support, it may take some time before their Coleman-directed insults are etched from the minds of Virginians. Moments after the results, the Democrats sent the message that they have their daggers ready. Lawrence H. Framme, chairman of the Democratic Party of Virginia, sent out a statement criticizing Mr. Coleman for running a “malicious campaign based on half-truths.” The statement indicated that the negative campaigning will not cease after the primary. Mr. Coleman replied to the charges by saying that he looks forward to a "lively dialogue” with Mr. Wilder during the coming campaign. However, in what may be another precusor of the campaign to come, one of Mr. Coleman’s staffers was quoted as saying that the Coleman campaign must “define” Mr. Wilder for the voters, rather than letting him do it himself.
