A traditional Fourth planned By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Celebrating an old-fashioned Independence Day has become a tradition in Rappahannock. This year will be no exception. In Washington, the Washington Volunteer Fire Department’s annual Fourth of July celebration will be “bigger and better than ever.” according to Chief Roger Roach, who is coordinating the day’s events. “If all goes according to plan, it should be a really big celebration. The town is starting to get a reputation for a good time — a lot of people want to come.” The town will kick off its celebration at It) a.m., with attractions planned throughout the day, until the evening program begins on the lawn of Avon Hall around dinnertime. There is no charge for any of the activities planned during the festival. There will be crafters of all descriptions, "about twice as many as last year," Chief Roach said.

County Administrator John McCarthy told the planners at last Wednesday s .meeting that the first step would be to apply for a planning grant to do a study of such things as the quantity nt substandard housing in the county and the number oi residents who could be classified as moderate or low income. Following a meeting Thursday with Land and Community Associates, a consulting firm in C harlottesville. to explore the process for applying for a planning grant. Mr. McCarthy said they would be able to prepare a grant request for Rappahannock County, and estimated that the county might get about $15,000 for the study. If the county wished to proceed after the planning process was completed, it might be possible to get up to $25,000 per project to upgrade either owner-occupied or rental houses, he said. This could involve “direct grants to property owners in their own houses, who can't afford io upgrade," he said. For rental property it could provide the "property owner with money to rehabilitate, but would limit the amount he can raise the rent." He explained that such things as upgrading the electrical service to meet current building codes, and installing plumbing and septic systems would be the sort of projects financed. "This is a unique program, in that it does not build new houses. Mr. McCarthy said. "To my mind, it is an excellent program because it doesn't create a new market. It would address local needs. We all agree there are an appreciable number of substandard housing units in this county." Mr. McCarthy said in Charlottesville and Albemarle County where the program is in place, a lot of the work is being done with volunteer labor. Hampton District representative Mike Massie said, “In the past years a lot of old housing was torn down because it was too expensive to fix it up. It was torn down and new houses were built that rent for $HOO a month and more.” In noting that the first step was for a grant for planning, Wakefield District representative Werner Krebser said, “We can’t lose." He made the motion, which passed, to have Mr. McCarthy apply for the planning grant. Mr. McCarthy said there was also an advisory committee with the extension service that is looking into the question of affordable housing. Some members of that committee are Mike Massie, Doug Baumgardner, Pearl? Clark. Alex Sharp and Roberta Anderson, he said. Jackson District representative David Fannon suggested that the school board should be represented on that committee. "They need affordable housing to attract good quality teachers," he said. Mr. Massie, who suggested that the planners study the issue of affordable housing, also introduced the idea of the planners’ conducting a study of the current status of agriculture in Rappahannock and future prospects for county agriculture. He said he had three people to recommend to serve on a committee who "had expressed a willingness to do the leg work." He recommended Richard See HOUSING, p. 14 Found hounds likely dumped Dog warden seeks homes for adoption By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Rappahannock’s rented kennel space is overflowing after the discovery last week of 10 dogs which appear to have been dumped in the Washington area. Dog Warden Ray Pullen picked up five of the dogs, which were congregated in a group in Tiger Y’alley, on June 19 and 20. The next day he got a call that another four were out of the Fodderstack Road, and a tenth was turned in by a Washington resident. “We don’t really know what’s happened,” said Trish Drake of the Rappahannock Animal Welfare League. “We have no clues, but it’s certainly unusual to find this many dogs at the same time." She added that none of the dogs were wearing collars or had any identifying markings. Warden Pullen said it is obvious that the dogs are familiar with each other, and have been together for some time. Most look like pure-bred German Shephards, and are so similar in appearance they could be litter-mates. The others are mixed breed, with at least some Shephard. Warden Pullen said they appear to be in good shape, with no indications of fleas, ticks or worm infestations.

Keen. Seven people were injured in the three car accident, which brought fire and rescue units from Washington, Flint Hill, Sperryville and Amissville to the scene to care for the injured. Amissville VFD kicks off summer carnival season By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer . The Amissville Volunteer Fire Department’s annual carnival began last night, with the organizers predicting the largest event ever. Fire Department President Carroll Ray Settle said that the Firemans’ Parade, scheduled for Thursday at 7 p.m., will feature more than 100 fire and rescue units from across Northern Virginia, floats representing civic organizations, politicians and community groups. “We have more floats than usual signed up this year.” "We’re looking for a super carnival," Mr. Settle said, “The biggest ever.” The extended weather forecast, he added, calls for a pleasant weekend, with lower temperatures and no rain predicted. The eight rides at Amissville are provided by West Virginia Amusements, and Mr. Settle said the fire department’s good experience with that company last year promises to continue. The company has provided five adult rides and three chil (Irens’ rides for the carnival. He added that all the rides are hydraulically operated, the safest type available. One feature at Amissville’s carnival is that there is no “Family Night,” which offers discount rides. “At Amissville, every night is family night,” Mr. Settle said, and everyone can ride the amusements all night for one $5 ticket. “When you’ve got several children who want to ride everything, that’s a real savings!” In addition to the Firemans’ Parade Thursday evening, on Friday night at 10 p.m. the department will crown its honorary fire chief and its prince and princess. On Saturday night at midnight there will be a drawing for the carnival’s grand prizes. There will be, of course, food and drink available every night, served by the department’s Auxiliary. The Auxiliary will also be offering prizes at its stand. On Thursday evening the Auxiliary will offer box dinners for those watching the paSee CARNIVAL, p. 18

VIRGINIA . .. From Across The State Wilder fires 1 st salvos of campaign Lt. Goo. snipes at Coleman for convention no-shows By MARY K. BLEWITT Arundel Newspapers Slate Writer . ARLINGTON — Lt. Gov. L. Douglas Wilder, Democratic gubernatorial candidate, took a few slugs at his Republican opposition J. Marshall Coleman during a brief visit in Fairfax County on Sunday. , Wilder and Donald S. Beyer .Jr., the Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor, were present for a .joint campaign kick-off with the Democratic candidates for the state House of Delegates. • ■ "I like to think that the people have already seen the difference between the tickets," Wilder told an enthusiastic crowd of more than 200 supporters. ' Referring -to the Republican party as the party of the past. Wilder said, "The people don't want to go back to the '70s in 19S0." , Wilder criticized Coleman for two recent no-shows. Coleman did not attend a scheduled appearance before the Trucking Association in Wintergreen on Tuesday and the Virginia Road Builders Association at the Homestead in Hot Springs, where Wilder was also scheduled to speak. “I’m not playing ring around the rosie," said Wilder, who then chose not to attend a joint appearance before the Virginia Automobile Dealers Association in Myrtle Beach, S.C. The Wilder campaign is planning to contact the Coleman campaign to work out a plan for joint appearances, according to Laura F. Dillard, spokeswoman for the Wilder campaign. "We’re guilty,” Dennis Peterson, spokesman for the Coleman campaign, responded sarcastically. “We had a scheduling conflict, but that has no relevance to who's going to make a better governor.” "We do not base our schedule on making Doug Wilder happy,” added Peterson, who said that he had not yet heard from the Wilder campaign to schedule joint appearances. At present, the two campaigns have scheduled debates for July 15 and July 22. In response to concerns over negative campaigning, Wilder told the crowd, "You haven’t seen it and you won't see it." “I want the opportunity to speak about what we’ve .done in Northern Virginia. That doesn't iret done run ning negatively and trashing Virginia.” Wilder challenged Coleman to speak to the record. “Talk is cheap. A record is hard to come by,” said Wilder. On transportation, Wilder said he had yet to hear a Coleman transportation plan or formula. “Do we want to go back to the 70s in transportation? Developers, builders, jurisdictions and localities could not see passed two or three years down the road,” said Wilder who served on the Governor’s Commission on Transportation in the 21st century. “Now we can plan ahead.” Coleman has criticized the state Department of Transportation as “a passive agency” and has vowed to establish a Transportation Management Review Commission to review VDOT. He favors regional planning and local initiatives to help resolve the traffic problems of the Northern Virginia region. Wilder said he advocates the use of pledge bonds and additional tolls to raise revenue for transportation costs. Bush exhorts state's GOP to unity By MARY K. BLEWITT Arundel Newspapers State Writer RICHMOND — President George Rush called for party unity as he joined the GOP state ticket under the Stars and Stripes at a fundraising dinner in Richmond last Wednesday. Republican leaders worked to dispell perceptions of party disunity and bitterness just one week after the heated three-way primary that elected former Attorney General J. ‘Marshall Coleman the GOP nominee for governor. The first Republican primary in 40 years has been called he most negative primary in the history of Virginia politics. “Yes, there was , a rough and tumble competition,” admitted President Bush. “But we've proven once again that we are different from the other party. We are united by principal. united by a great cause, and .that is why, now that the dust has 'Settled, we are all still Republicans.” Bush hailed the Republican ticket of Coleman for governor. State Sen. Edwina “Eddy" P. Dal__ ton for lieutenant governor, and j State Sen. Joseph B. Benedetti for I attorney general. | Taking a jab at the Democrats, j Bush said that as he flew over the j King's Dominion, amusement park i » t north of Richmond, he was convinced he saw the entire Democratic ticket riding "Shock Wave.” The President’s visit was brief. Attendees caught a 15-minute glimpse of the country’s leader and first lady during the three-hour dinner. The appearance was enough, however, to help raise more than $200,000 for the Republican state ticket, the largest fund-raising dinner the state party has ever had, according to Joe Elton of the Republican Party of Virginia. More than 1,700 people attended the $100-aplate dinner. I’.S. Rep. Stanford Parris and former U.S. Sen. Paul Trible, Coleman's defeated opposition, were present at the head table to give their support and mend any torn relations with Coleman. Trible, the early frontrunner in the party primary, presented Cole!

Gov. L. Douglas Wilder. Coleman, in turn, requested that Parris and Trible serve as honorary chairmen of his campaign, and both agreed to do so. “I can not think of two men I would rather have at my side in the tough contest that lies ahead,” said Coleman. Echoing the Presidents words, Coleman said, “My friends, we are united by a bond that transcends personal differences and the effects of our competitive struggles.” The bond, he said, is the Republican party and its principles. Coleman promised a spirited campaign. Ridiculing the Democratic ticket for using the lottery Pick 3 slogan, Coleman said, “And what a gamble it is.” Governor's race promises more spirit as campaign winds up By MARY K. BLEWITT Arundel Newspapers State Reporter With the Republican Primary coming to an end, Virginia’s political bugs are looking towards the gubernatorial race. All seem to agree that as Republican candidate former Attorney General J. Marshall Coleman and Democratic candidate Lt. Gov. L. Douglas Wilder face off for the governor’s seat, the run is going to be a race worth watching. All seem to further agree that — no matter what the outcome — it is going to be a fast-paced, hard-fought race. Over the next four and a half months, the candidates will be working hard to show that the only trait that they share is the use of their middle name. “Both candidates are going to run a hard-fought race,” said Del. Leslie L. Byrne (D-38th District). “It will be a spirited campaign,” agreed Del. Frank Medico (R-44th District). “Both candidates can articulate the issues. Both candidates are intelligent people.” “It will be a long-drawn, fast-moving race,” said Sen. William A. Truban (R-27th District). Although June, the spring of the political season, may be too soon to speculate on a victor, many are expecting a close race. “I think everyone is expecting a hard-fought, tough race,” said Laura F. Dillard, press secretary for the Wilder campaign, “and one that we’ll have to go out and fight everyday.” After the recent race for the Republican gubernatorial nomination, which was characterized by a series of person attacks on the candidates, Virginian’s are awaiting the tone of the gubernatorial campaigns during the summer and fall. “Just a few short weeks ago Marshall Coleman ran one of the most negative campaigns in the history of Virginia politics,” said D.K. Starr. “I think we can expect a mean-spirited campaign. "There is nothing wrong with comparative campaigning,” said Sabato. “It’s a necessary part of the process, and I think we’ll see a lot of comparative campaigning.” After viewing the primary, Del. Kenneth R. Plum said he too expects to see more negative campaigning. “There is too much evidence that [negative] campaigns tend to pay off,” observed Plum. “[The Democrats] need to respond earlier and very directly,” to any negative attacks, said Plum. “Candidates in office have to be accountable for what they do,” commented Medico. Although he considers personal attacks to be negative campaigning, Medico added that voting records are “fair game” for the opposition. If Wilder were to be elected governor, he would become the first black governor in the country, and there is much speculation among Virginians as to the roll that race will play in the November election and the preceding campaign. “Race will not surface in the way some people think it will,” said Sabato. To raise the issue of race, “a candidate will suffer terrible backlash on either side,” said Sabato who asserts that race can not be raised for political gain. Will race influence the voter’s choice? There is wide disagreement. “Some would like to think race is an issue, but it is not,” said Medico. “It just so happens that Wilder is black.” “I think it was proven four years ago that Virginia is beyond that,” Del. Byrne contended. The race prejudice “is as broad as it is long,” said John H. Chichester (R-28th District) who faced Wilder in the 1985 race for lieutenant governor. “There are people that will vote for Wilder because he’s black, and there are people that won’t vote for him because he’s black.” Sabato agrees. “It cuts both ways. Wilder gains and loses.” One area where Wilder gains is that his historical significance is drawing national attention. Wilder is drawing funds from around the country as well as Virginia and is receiving wide-ranging press coverage. “That’s free advertising,” said Chichester who said he believes Coleman will have to work twice as hard as Wilder for press coverage. Two men who are probably among those watching the races closest are Del. Raymond R. “Andy” Guest who faced Coleman early on in the primary before leaving the race and Chichester who was considered the frontrunner in the 1985 election. “It should be a very interesting race," said Guest. Wilder has had the luxury of "not having to fight tooth and nail for the party’s nomination,” said Guest, but may also have suffered from lack of attention over the past few months. Chichester said he would advice Coleman to run a positive campaign. Coleman should “articulate solutions for problems here in Virginia and motivate the people to go to the polls to vote for Marshall Coleman, not to vote against Doug Wilder,” said Chichester . The crucial weeks are yet to come. The last two wreeks in October and the first week in November are when all of the undecided voters make up their minds, explained Sabato. ONCE IS NOT ENOUGH.

Mon -Fri Published by Arundel Newspapers Member Audit Bureau of Circulation THURSDAY, JUNE 29, 1989 Editorial Joint planning: An idea whose time has come We think the suggestion advanced by Supervisor Mike Massie that one member of the county’s and planning commission serve jointly on both boards is an excellent idea. The county’s comprehensive plan explicitly calls for any land-use decisions involving areas around the Town of Washington to be explored and solved jointly by the town and the county. Recently, there have been two cases; the swap of the Town Hall and the library and the question of movig the town-county boundary, which have required close cooperation between the two governments. In several instances, the cooperation which both governments seem to seek has almost been sabotaged because one body or the other received incomplete or erroneous information about deliberations being undertaken by the other group. That cooperation could be fostered even more, and controversy probably diminished, if the two planning bodies shared two common members between them. That way, each commission would be aware of the issues before the other, rather than waiting until a potentially controversial question surfaces before getting together for joint consideration. More and more, there will be land use and planning questions which involve both the town and the county. Given the location of the county’s governmental offices within the town, the mutual concern is inevitable. What is not inevitable, and what joint membership might go a long way toward solving, is conflict between the two jurisdictions. History teaches that many times conflict is rooted in misunderstanding, and misunderstanding is fostered by opinions and stories rendered second-hand. If the county’s planners had a member present at town meetings, and vice versa, a first-hand report of the deliberations could be delivered to the other body. Such a report could also highlight the concerns expressed by the members. And, with someone present at the meeting, questions could be answered and potential conflicts perhaps diffused with a simple explanation. The entire idea seems to us, at least at first glance, to be one which has a lot of potential positives and no negatives. The only concern we see, in fact, is finding people who would be willing to volunteer the additional time which serving on another board would entail. But if that’s the worst that can be said of the proposal, we think that it deserves serious consideration. Commentary Rappahannock News photo Cinch Mahan ON A HOT SUMMER afternoon.

The three of us were deeply moved by the outward and generous expression of appreciation shown to us on Awards Day. Each year teaching becomes more and more strenuous due to the additional classes added to the curriculum all in the same length of time as yesteryear. All our colleagues in the Rappahannock County, at all levels, strive to make adjustments to reach that peak of perfection necessary to educate Rappahannock's youth. It isn’t always easy and sometimes is downright difficult. but actions like the one show n to us, in public, make it all worthwhile. It’s nice to know when one is appreciated. Parents who encourage and ins'ill "in their children a love for knowledge are the gifts all teachers pray for. Each year, more and more of you are in evidence, and with that kind of support, our children can only benefit. The faculties of both our schools are fortunate to be working in Rappahannock with parents like you. Once again,, thank you for your thoughtfulness.

Russian photos speak to rural life worldwide By LAI RIK MARSHALL Rappahannock Nc»' ( onl nhut mg W ritt r Last week Rappahannock County was privileged to ho.-t a talk, visit and exhibition by Soviet photographer Kdik Gladkov. an honorary member of Middle Street Gallery. The nailery will have Gladkov’s documentation of a Russian village and the Soviet punk rock cul I^'aDi^TuaNWV^J V* ^ - N L’ £V ; C ^ t-'~ A JUST FOR KICKS-BUT SOMEONE COULD DIE tuiv on view one more weokoml (June .">U July 2). The series of photographs of the people and land 1()0 miles outside of Moscow is of particular interest to our rural community. And 1 think Gladkov's experiences and perceptions are of general importance to all Americans. Goladkov has spent two months in America, photographing in Boston. NY. Philadelphia. DC and Rappahannock. His children could not come, he said, because they must stay like hostages. Middle Street Gallery .has shown Gladkov's work for three years, including parts of the village series. "Chasnitsy, a Russian Village and its people, is shown in its entirety for the first time in this county during the exhibition. There is one road into the village of Chasnitsy which is impassable when it rains or snows. About 20 native inhabitants remain out of a community that was 1,500 strong in the 1920's. Three unhappy events were described to Gladkov as the cause of the village's dwindling population: The collectivization of the farms in 1929: A fire which destroyed half the village during World War 11; The politics of Kruschev. After one severe winter when the villagers had killed all their pigs to keep from starving, they were punished by officials for poor agricultural practices. The officials showed more concern for the pigs than the people. There was no punishment meted out by officials when people died of star Nation. Mo.-t people receive about $lb(* Oach month from the government for their retirement pension. There are no stores in C'hasnitsy. There is no hospital. There is little to spend money on. In the winter, some people are shut-in for the duration of the season, while others stay with their children in the cities if there is room. Delicious potatoes are grown in the village. The children of the vil- ■ lagers come to harvest the potatoes and take them to Moscow to sell. The government potatoes in the city are of poor quality, so that' the village ones are quite desirable. The youngest person in the village is 40, an exile from the city. Most people are 00, 70, or 80. When these people go, C'hasnitsy will be gone. There seems to be a historical trend that happens as countries industrialize. People leave the country for the cities. Cities hold out promise, opportunities, hope. It is a terrible problem for many developing countries because the cities can't handle the droves of people leaving the countryside. A person who works with developing African nations was most interested in the active arts community here in Rappahannock. He said there must be incentives for people to stay in the villages, and a rich cultural life would help. I believe that the growth of Rappahannock County in the last decade speaks to the fact that many people are now valving a reality larger than the urban man-made world. A \il-" lage like (’hasnitsy won't survive! lolly enough to see such a swing bark ; to the eountry if it also happens after; Russia becomes more industrialized. ; 1 would like to share one part of’ Gladkov's thought-provoking talk.He was asked what was the most ini ! portant thing he would take back! from his visit here. He said it was; seeing people in their ow n homes.; "Now I am affected by the American ; dream of owning your land andhouse. This is a dream that will beunfullillable for me in my country and that is very hard." Gladkov was able to show the photos ot ('hasnitsy in Moscow through manipulating the bu reaucracy. He pointed out to the officials that 27 men died in WAV II from the village so they let the exhibit be shown as memorial. Roth Gladkov’s exhibition and his talk reaffirmed the importance Of not taking for granted the luxurious wealth and freedom we have here. It also made me realize that not all American’s have access to “Thrf* Dream." It furthered my resolve U. « do what I can to see that there is "Liberty and Justice for all.” These are the qualities that make the United States a beacon to the world.

Sen. Benedetti is underdog against Terry By .JOHN GOOLRICK Rappahannock News Social Writer State Sen. Joseph Renedetti faces the most formidable task of the six Democratic and Republican nominees for statewide office this year. Sen. Renedetti, a Richmond lawyer, is the Republican candidate opposing incumbent Democratic attorney-general Mary Sue Terry. Certainly, no one is writing Renedetti off yet, particularly given Doug Wilder's remarkable 19<S5 win for lieutenant-governor when he was a decided underdog, and also given Marshall Coleman's recent longshot win in the Republican primary. Rut Renedetti faces in Ms. Terry the person who got more votes than anybody in the statewide election four years ago and who has increased her name recognition even more since then. Though she got off to a rocky start as the state’s chief legal officer during the last three years, she has staked out a claim on many consumer issues and has consistently called for tougher measures to combat drug use and abuse and crime. Ms. Terry opted not to run for Governor this year, as many thought she would, so that she wouldn’t have to confront Wilder head-on for the nomination. If she wins re-election, she will probably seek the governorship in 191C. With lots of political contacts and the help of such legendary money raisers as Alson Smith, Ms. Terry already has considerable cash in the campaign treasury, and the coffers will undoubtedly continue to grow. Renedetti’s dilemma is that nobody can win a statewide campaign these days without spending loads of money; and one cannot raise loads of money unless those making the contributions believe the candidate has some chance of success. If the early polls show a huge lead for Ms. Terry, as may be the case, Renedetti s fund raising problems will be compounded. When former Del. William “Ruster” O’Rrien, I the GOT nominee against Ms. Terry in UK), started slipping in the polls, his money sources dried up. ^ Renedetti, a quiet-spoken man who has earned the respect of his fellow legislators, may have to alter his style a bit if he is to stand any chance of victory. His major job will be to convince voters that his legal operation will be more competent than that of Ms. Terry, and that he will do more to combat the drug scourge.

Culpeper SS8 825-8371 *M,r In Store Financing Available Since the fight against drugs was a major part of Marshall Coleman’s successful Republican primary effort and since Coleman is a former attorney general, he can give Benedetti some assistance in taking on Ms. Terry. Coleman will undoubtedly tell his running mate to come out swinging and to charge that Ms. Terry’s legal operation has been at times amateurish and resulted in criticism from members of her own party. How that will wash with the electorate is highly uncertain since polls indicate Ms. Terry remains popular and is perceived as doing a good job. Then, too, most voters aren’t lawyers and have little insight into how the state’s law firm works and whether its top occupant is doing what should be done on their behalf or not. Ms. Terry certainly won the hearts of some conservatives when she said she was prepared to defend the right of Virginia Military Institute to remain an all-male bastion. And though some feminists might not appreciate that stand, they’re not likely to desert her in drove for a conservative Republican equally prepared to keep women out of VMI. Outside the Richmond area, Benedetti is little known and the only way to build name identity, since candidates in statewide elections can hardly go door to door, is through the mass media. If paid for, that kind of exposure has a very high price tag. Some of it, though, will be free since newspapers and radio and television stations do assign reporters to cover statewide elections. The rub is, that the lion’s share of the media attention goes to the Governor’s race. And the battle for second spot between Eddy Dalton, mu Old Dominion Politics widow of a former governor, and Don Beyer, a political unknown until he won the Democratic nomination, will get most of the rest of the attention with the race for attorney general getting the leftovers. Perhaps prematurely in view of recent underdog wins, pundits are already setting the stage for a 1993 gubernatorial match-up between Mrs. Dalton and Ms. Terry, a race that would be doubly historic since no woman has ever before won a major party nomination for Governor in Virginia. Yet, Joe Benedetti is a tenacious fellow who served three overseas stints in the Army and has bucked the odds before. Those who know him well say, like Wilder and Coleman and Beyer, he doesn’t give up easily. Like a man preparing to climb Mr. Everest, he is taking his first tentative steps, though the peak is many miles away and the obstacles to the top loom large with dollar signs and polls that may not lend encouragement. John Goolrick is a former journalist who covered Virginia politics for nearly 25 years. He is now a press aide to Congressman D. French Slaughter Jr (R, 7th-VA.). Despite safety warnings, fireworks injuries rise Sometimes the Fourth of July “bombs bursting in air” are the last things a child’s eye will see. ‘ Last year, more than half of all fireworks-related eye injuries happened to children, warned Frank J. Carlomagno, Executive Director, Virginia Affiliate, Prevent Blindness. Fireworks injuries of all kind soared 10 percent in 1988, up to a new total of 10,200. Eye injuries in particular tend to be severe. In one study, 40 percent of the reported cases caused permanent eye damage, visual disability or destruction of the eye. “No fireworks are safe in children’s hands,” said Mr. Carlomagno. “Even sparklers can cause serious bums to the eye and skin and can easily ignite clothing.” Sparklers alone accounted for more than half of all fireworks injuries last year. Consumer Product Safety Commission statistics show that in 1988, 45.5 percent of fireworks eye injuries requiring emergency room treatment, struck children 5 to 14 years old. One of the primary factors in these injuries was inadequate adult supervision of the children when using fireworks. The National Society to Prevent Blindness warns against the use of fireworks.

If you are going to use fireworks, the following safety guidelines are recommeded: • Check local laws. Some types of fireworks may be illegal, depending on state and local regulations. • Never allow children to use fireworks. Even sparklers are dangerous. • Read and follow all instructions and warning labels. Wear eye protecton. • Fireworks should only be used outdoors in a clear area away from homes, buildings and combustible materials. • Never handle or attempt to relight a firework that does not go off. Keep water nearby for emergencies and dousing malfunctioning fireworks. Drench thoroughly before discarding. • Never ignite fireworks in a container; glass and metal containers can easily shatter.

The summer camping season for the Shenandoah Council Boy Scouts of America . opened at Camp Rock Enon on June 23. There were eight troops in attendance with 85 boys and 12 leaders. Rappahannock County is included in the Shenandoah Council. 15 YEARS AGO June 27, 1974 A grant of $15,000 has been awarded by the state to help finance and develop facilities for the newly established Rappahannock Recreation Center. The grant is from the Urban Assistance Incentive Fund, and the award was made upon the recommendation of an intergovernmental review committee of the Division of State Planning and Community Affairs, based on an application submitted this spring by county authorities. Granville Eastham, president of the Rappahannock Recreation Association, was advised of the grant in a letter signed by Governor Mills Godwon.

The aim of the program is to find summer employment for youths between the ages of 14 and 22 in non-profit organizations, and. explains Mary Carter, Summer Counselor for the Rappahannock County program, to find a worksite “that’s as career oriented as possible.” 5 YEARS AGO June 28, 1984 The Rappahannock School Board agreed to seek direction from the supervisors before deciding which of two bids to accept for repair of the elementary school roof. At the special meeting, held Tuesday to open the roof and the gas, oil and coal bids, the board could not proceed without determining whether they had the supervisor’s concensus to replace the flat roof or to add a pitch to the roof, which has been plagued by leaks for years. The fifth annual Antique Auto Show will be held July 4 at 10 a.m. at the south end of Gay Street in Washington.

Baptism site dedicated Members of Mount Lebanon Baptist Church gathered at Rock Mills Sunday, June 25 to dedicate their tradition Baptism site on the Rush River in memory of Helen Shipman Pawley. * The late Edward Pawley’s will stipulated that the site be marked with a plaque honoring Mrs. PawT ley’s memory. The plaque has been set in the rock overlooking the deep pool in the river, which as been used by the church for baptisms for many years. Mr. Pawley had given the twoacre site to the members of Mount Lebanon Baptist Church some years before to be used as a baptismal site for any church who wished to use it.

Central Virginia Physicians Service, a physician practice management firm, delivered the stateof-the-art anesthesia machine to Dr. Michael Russell, chief of anesthesia atCMH. “We are pleased to provide this vital equipment to the anesthesia department,” said Dr. John Larson, executive director of CVPS, upon delivery of the Narkomed 2B. “A primary purpose of CVPS is to support the patient care needs of the departments whose physicians are associated with our organization.” Destined for use in the future surgical suite, the $30,000 anesthesia machine will be used immediately in the current operating room. “It is great to have this advanced technology at CMH. This machine is the same quality found in open-heart surgical units,” said Dr. Russell, as he accepted the machine on behalf of the department. “We are very proud to add the Narkomed 2B to our department.” Besides having the latest features in anesthesia administration, the Narkomed 2B has advanced safeguards to alert the anesthesiologist to a variety of possible problems. This is a significant advance in anesthesia safety for patients and in equipment reliability for physicians. “This machine is an excellent supplement to the senses about a patient's condition. There is no substitute for the human operator, but with the Narkomed's multiple layers of system checks, this machine will identify many situations before they become problems,” Dr. Russell explained. Among other advantages of the Narkomed 2B is a sophisticated ventilator which permits surgery on pa tients with advanced lung disease. Appropriate for any surgery from minor to complicated, the Narkomed is able to operate completely for eight hours without outside power. The in-line oxygen analyzer is a safeguard against improper gas mix tures. The Narkomed also makes several kinds of laser surgery possible at CMH. CVPS provides billing and management assistance to Dr. Russell and the anesthesia department, th< physicians of the emergency department and the radiology department, and the physicians who interpret EKGsatCMH. Fincham earns GED Rappahannock’s Literacy Volunteers were delighted recently to learn that Marcia Fincham had taken a GED test and passed it thereby earning the equivalent of a high school diploma. Her faithful attendance at the Monday night sessions in the library with RLV coaching had prepared her for her success in the GED examination. Her achievement now opens a broad opportunity for her to pursue whatever course she wishes to take. Her example is of importance to RLV which tries to help anyone who wants to make progress in education to reach that goal. Anyone wishing to learn more of this program should come to a Monday night meeting at the library between 7 and 9. It's a boy!

Larry Hovis Washington Baptist Church Washington, Virginia The Psalmist says, "I will lift up my eyes unto the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth (Psalm 121:1-2)." I thought of these words the first time I lifted up my own eyes to the beautiful Blue Ridge hills of Rappahannock. Our majestic mountians sing forth the praises of God. How can we express our thanksgiving to God for blessing us with this special portion of Creation? First, we should never take our magnificent environment for granted. When autumn bursts with its brilliant sea of colors, are we like a child who can't wait for December 25, or do we dread this season and its tourist traffic like an accountant hates April 15? Second, we can prove ourselves worthy of our stewardship responsibility by following Christ’s command to "love ohe another as I have loved you (John 15:12)." God has entrusted to us a special area of his world. We may delude ourselves into thinking we own the land of Rappahannock, but it does not belong to us. It belongs to God. We are simply God's stewards (managers). If we follow Jesus' command to "love one another," we will be quick to share our home with others. Our family has enjoyed our time in Rappahannock. We have grown and matured as this community has befriended and loved us. As we prepare to leave these blue hills, we realize probably never again will we live in a more beautiful place. Thank you, Rappahannock, for your testimony of praise to God through your caring for His creation. May you continue to seek creative ways to be God's faithful stewards.

Beautiful iris garden requires special care By DIANE RELE Extension Home Horticulturist Bearded iris in the perennial border should be divided and replanted in midsummer. The best time is immediately after the blooming season ends. The operation may be delayed until fall, but summer is preferred by most growers. When clumps are divided at this time, the new plants will become well established before winter and be ready to produce a fine crop of flowers next spring. The bearded iris has a fleshy rhizome, or stem, which grows along the surface of the soil. New side buds are developed each year until a large network of branched rhizomes is established. If large blooms are desired, the plants should be divided and replanted every three to five years, depending on the density of the clump. In preparing to replant bearded iris, cut the leaves back to about six inches. Then, with a pointed shovel, dig around all sides of the plant and lift the entire clump out of the ground. Wash away the soil. With a sharp knife cut off the short side branches which have a cluster of leaves at the end, Discard the old center portion of the clump. Inspect each rhizome for signs of insect feeding or decay. The most serious insect pest of iris, the iris borer, are often found at this time. Check the rhizome for the 1 1/4inch-long, pinkish larvae with a row of black spots down the sides, and check the soil for the inch-long borer pupae. Destroy any that are found. Rhizomes infested with borers may also be infected with basterial soft rot. Remove diseased areas with a knife. If extensive rot is present, discard the entire rhizome. Replant the new divisions after cutting the roots back to about two inches. Plant in w'ell-drained soil and cover about one inch deep. In heavy or poorly-drained soils, the top of the rhizome should be exposed to reduce the possibility of rot. After planting, apply a side dressing of 5-10-5 fertilizer at the rate of about two pounds per 100 feet of row. Scratch the fertilizer into the top inch of soil and water thoroughly. Apply a very light mulch of sawdust or peat moss to help conserve soil moisture. Do not use a heavy mulch which may increase the possibility of rhizome rot. Additional water may be needed every two weeks during periods of drought. After the ground has frozen, apply additional mulch. This will conserve moisture and help prevent the alternate freezing knd thawing of the soil that may push plants out of the ground. Irises grown from divisions should bloom the next spring after planting. For a quick flower display, plant three individual rhizomes eight to 10 inches apart. But remember, the more closely together iris rhizomes are planted, the sooner they will need to be divided. The same planting procedure is suggested for dwarf and intermediate bearded irises. Try some of these shorter types to add new interest to the garden. Dwarf varieties bloom in early spring, followed by the intermediate and then the tall types. Some of the intermediate varieties produce a second crop of flowers in the fall. You also might consider planting some crested irises. This is a dwarf type which is related to the bearded"' iris. The plants grow to a height of six to nine inches, and are ideal for the rock garden or low border. This type received its name from the crest of tissue along the falls (flower petals oriented downward) in place of the beard.

Keep mealtime cool By SANDRA R. RICHARDSON Keeping your family well-nourished while keeping cool during the hot summer months is easy with a little planning. Conserving energy in meal preparation, preparing cool foods and planning meals that require little preparation time will get you through the summer heat wave. Energy levels during the hot summer months are usually low. Spending a lot of time in a hot steamy kitchen can further reduce lagging energy. Studies have shown that meal planning, preparation and cleanup require more time than any other homemaking responsibility, except child care. In one reported study, homemakers averaged 2,12 hours preparinjf foods and 1,21 hours in clean-ups after daily meals. In, addition, approximately four hours were used weekly in shopping for and storing food. Homemakers working outside the home used less time than the average, whereas unemployed homemakers exceeded the average. Some shopping and preparation time can be reduced by planning meals ahead of time. Share preparation and cleanup time with other mk ■■ family members, when possible. If the responsibility is yours alone, spread out the preparation time. Organize your day so that you can prepare a portion of the evening meal during breakfast if you work or right after breakfast if you work at home. Another trick is to start preparation of the next evening’s meal while preparing dinner for that day. Occasionally using paper plates may help give spirits a little boost as well as a change of pace. Purchasing one food item already prepared at the deli or a restaurant will help reduce preparation and cleanup time and still give the benefits of a home cooked meal. Purchasing paper plates and prepared food will add some extra cost to a home meal, but Cooking with still will be less expensive than eating out in a restaurant. The cook can keep cool by utilizing convenience appliances. For example, the microwave oven and pressure cooker can save time as well as reducing heat generated while cooking. If you have not ventured into cooking meat in the microwave, now is the time. If the flavor of microwave cooked meats just doesn’t appeal to you, start cooking the meat in the microwave and complete the cooking on the grill. A barbecue sauce or basting sauce can add the finishing touch. Other appliances that are cool methods of cooking include slow cookers, woks and electric skillets.

Each appliance offers v a different way to cook an entire \ meal in one dish. Refer to the own- \ er’s manual for great recipe ideas. Fire up the grill or smoker instead of your kitchen. Cook the entire meal outside and eat indoors < where its cooler. Smaller or thinner cuts of meat will cook more rapidly on the grill and you don’t have to stand over the hot coals as long. Fish and seafood cook very quickly and are enhanced by cooking on the grill. The cook can also stay cool this summer by choosing foods that require no heat to prepare. Salads are the first to come to mind. A tossed salad is always good, but try some new ingredients. Vary the type of greens with a mixture of spinach and escarole, bibb or endive. Then add color and texture with spring onions, yellow or zucchini squash, tomatoes, bean sprouts or any other vegetable that is in the garden or refrigerator. To make a tossed salad a balanced meal in a bowl, add chunks of cooked pork, beef, turkey, ham or cheese and serve with hard bread or crackers. A variety of salad dressings or a mixture of fresh fruits and vegetables can also add new life to the salad bowl. Meat salads such as tuna or chicken salad can be made with canned meats. There are many variations of the meat salad which can be served attractively in a tomato or green pepper. Don’t forget salads that can be made with pasta, rice and potatoes. Then there are the 1001 varieties of creations that can end up between two slices of bread or on a bagle or in a pita pocket. Instead of a salad bar try a sandwich bar. Some folks feel guilty about serving a sandwich for dinner, but when you think about it, you can easily combine a serving from each of the four food groups in one sandwich. Start with any variety of breads - rye, wheat, pumpernickel - then stack the sandwich with slices of ham, turkey or cheese. Add tomato slices and alfalfa sprouts and the last slice of bread. Some fresh fruit of the season for dessert completes a simple nutritious and cool meal. Ham and cheese medley 1 8 3/4-ounce can pineapple tidbits 1 small head lettuce, torn in bitesize pieces (4 cups) 1 cup cubed fully-cooked ham 1 cup halved seedless green grapes 2 ounces natural Swiss cheese, cut in strips Bibb lettuce 1 cup dairy sour cream Drain pineapple, reserving 1/4 cup syrup.

Summer safety important, especially on the farm BLACKSBURG - Playing hidea"nd-seek at the farmstead can be a dangerous game. After the end of the school year, many young children will be spending their days at home on the farmstead, which can be a hazardous place, warned Glen H. Hetzel, Virginia Cooperative Extension agricultural engineer. “The farm is not just a residence,” Mr. Hetzel said, “it is the workplace. Youngsters will be exposed to hazardous situations just like at many other workplaces.” A magazine for farmers, “Successful Farming,” conducted a study on farm-related injuries to children. A report in the publication’s April 1989 issue stated that one out of every 20 children 15 years of age or younger who lived on farms was involved in a farm-related injury during 1988. Mr. Hetzel listed some of the hazards of a farm area: Youngsters out for a walk may be tempted to cross fields with livestock - large animals that are not accustomed to children being around. Farm ponds and streams, necessary for production, are an attraction. Many activities from swimming to fishing can be part of the summer fun near the water. But everyone has to be careful around water, he said. The large size ol rarms maKes 11 easier for youngsters to be farther from an adult who can see them at all times. On a farm they could be out of sight for a long while. There is usually large machinery around the farmstead that can be dangerous both in use and when parked. Mr. Hetzel warned those who have young children to observe all standard safety practices. Walk around the equipment and inspect it before getting in to operate it, he said. Young children can easily be hidden behind it. Many pieces of equipment have parts that have sharp edges. If a young child were to slip while climbing such equipment, there could be injury. When the equipment has parts that could fall, such as front-end loaders, leave them in the “down” position when parked. Remove the keys from the ignition so that youngsters are not tempted to turn the keys. Never allow children to be extra riders on equipment designed for an operator only. ” Many farms use chemicals that can be dangerous, and these chemicals are present in amounts larger Help a friend quit than in any typical household. These must be stored safely in special places where no one can accidentally be injured by them. A lot of children enjoy climbing, and the farmstead has a lot of places to climb. Sheds, garages, storage buildings and other places tempt youngsters to heights from which falls could cause an injury. Youngsters enjoy riding all kinds of wheeled-vehicles - bicycles, motorscooters, AT Vs and others. Since there is little other traffic, it is easy for a youngster to forget about other vehicles on the country roads. But there can still be some, Mr. Hetzel said. Youngsters have to learn to be as careful on farm roads as any others. Farm youngsters also may get assigned chores all year, not only in the summer. Some of these chores can be more dangerous than those in a more urban setting. They can be helping feed the livestock or with planting and field work. Some chores can be hazardous because of youngsters’ lack of experience and smaller size. “Large animals and large equipment can be dangerous to youngsters until they get more experience,” Mr. Hetzel said. In addition to the special concerns of a farmstead, all families Real Estate £) Eileen M. Day REALTOR IS THE AMPERAGE AMPLE? The electrical control center for a home is the fuse box. When there's too much current going through a circuit, a small strip of metal within the fuse will melt and halt the flow of electricity. This is known as ‘‘blowing a fuse.” A circuit breaker does the work of a fuse but looks and operates much like a light switch. When a circuit is overloaded, the switch will simply flip to Off. Current can be restored by switching the breaker back to the On position. The main thing to look for in a fuse or circuit breaker box is the amperage rating for the whole house. This will tell you the amount of electricity your circuits can carry effectively. This rating is usually printed on a small plate atached to the box. A home of average size will require a minimum of 100-ampere serrvice. Anything over that would be to your advantage. To see how many circuits there are in a house, merely count the number of fuses or breakers. The average single house will have from 15 to 20. Make sure they are all labeled.

Helping You Build A Better Home Smce 1854 50 Victory Lane Between Rt. 50 E. & Airport Hoad Winchester Virginia Planning essential for vacations with pets By MINNIE HARRISON Rappahannock News Contributing Writer The summer vacation is planned, but should the family dog or cat come along? Dr. Allen Paul, DVM of the American Humane Association offers the following tips. Some pets don’t like to travel, particularly cats. Some dogs, as well, are happier at home. A pet sitter at home or a stay in a good boarding kennel would be less stressful to both pet and owner. If your pet enjoys travelling and many do, make sure your destination facilities allow pets. Many do not. First, be sure your pet is in good health and its vaccinations are current. Your pet will probably be exposed to other animals along the way, some of which would be disease carriers. Have a check with your veterinarian before you leave. If your pet is on medication, bring along an ample supply. A pet which gets overexcited may benefit from tranquilizers. Ask your veterinarian about this possibility. Common courtesy dictates that you walk your pet on a leash during your vacation and clean up after it. Keeping your pet on a leash can also prevent accidents or an encounter with a wild animal such as a skunk, raccoon or porcupine. Feed your pet the same food and at the same hour as you do at home. Different foods at different times and in an unfamiliar environment can cause stomach upsets, diarrhea and intestinal problems. There should be constant access to fresh water. A pet first aid kit may come in handy. It should consist of bandaging material, antiseptic powder or cream to treat minor cuts and irritations, tweezers for removing burrs or pulling out ticks, and scissors. Keep in mind that the inside of a car can get very hot very quickly, even with windows open in moderate temperatures. Pets can be overcome rapidly in extreme heat, so don’t leave them in the car while you sight-see or shop. Other experienced animal handlers suggest that if you are not sure now your pet will react on a trip, try him out on short ones. If traveling by car, a travel crate is a must for your cat and a help also to your dog. While traveling always keep your cat confined in the carrier, never letting him loose in the vehicle. Your pet will probably like the feeling of security in a crate, a place all his own. If your dog likes to ride free, he should be trained to remain in his own area of the car. Never let him hang his head out of the window of a moving car. Such can result in serious eye irritation or infections. If you have to travel by air, better leave Puss or Fido at home or with a sitter or in a boarding kennel. There are too many possibilities for a traumatic experience for both you and your pet. Many special preparations are necessary in choosing a sturdy spacious crate, planning convenient times of departures and arrivals to minimize stress on the animal, providing for food and water and obtaining health certificates and other documents which have to be attached to the animal carrier. Despite precautions, animals die in transit from stress and lack of proper care in handling them. There are innumerable other possibilities of things that can go wrong which could make your vacation a nightmare. Cats and dogs are creatures of habit, and any abrupt and radical change in their daily routine can be a jolt to their sense of security. But fortunately, their biggest habit is your love and companionship. Make sure that your pet is well fed and comfortable, then give him a little extra attention and calm reassurance. If he sees that all is well with you, he’ll soon adjust. He may turn out to be the best travelerMrs. Harrison operates the lost and found Pet Registry in Reva.

'College of the Fields' celebrates 75th year BLACKSBURG - Virginia’s farmers were happy to see the Virginia Cooperative Extension Service created by the Smith-Lever Act in 1914, but many agriculturists at Virginia Tech did not dance for joy. Though the program promised much for the Old Dominion, the Tech researchers were afraid that there wrould be too much outside interference with their “pure” research. Fortunately, the farmers’ joy was realized while the faculty’s fears of “selling out” never came to pass. Although Extension work was flourishing across Virginia prior to the bill’s passage, Tech researchers w ere hesitant to support demonstrations believing them to be too closely associated with vested interests. Colleges preferred to conduct research at experiment stations and relay the information to farmers by publications or hold meetings on campus to attract them. Unfortunately, this did not allow information to reach those who could not afford to travel and who often did not understand or trust representatives from a college campus. Smith-Lever specifically mandated that “Cooperative Agricultural Extension Work shall consist of the giving of instruction and practical demonstrations i|i agriculture and home economics to persons through field demonstrations, publications, and otherwise.” Many of Tech’s agricultural faculty did not favor the face-to-face method of Extension, fearing that the U.S. Department of Agriculture would assume control of their operations. It also was fortunate that J.D. Eggleston was president of Virginia Tech at the time of the law’s passage. Dr. Eggleston, who was Virginia’s state superintendent of public instruction, was the man Seaman A. Knapp first converted in Virginia to the need for field demonstrations. Dr. Eggleston WTote that Mr. Knapp w'as “a man sent from God.” In his public education post, Dr. Eggleston became a supporter of Extension in 1906, and was instrumental in getting T.O. Sandy appointed state agent to begin the program. In 1907, Mr. Sandy began working with farmers in the vicinity of his Burkeville home. The demonstration movement was an instantaneous success. Mr. Sandy was not the first Extension agent in Virginia, however. That honor went to John B. Pierce, a faculty member at Hampton Institute. Mr. Pierce, who was busy working with farmers in Norfolk County, w'as asked by Mr. Knapp to become an agent, and his first assignment was in Gloucester County. He later w ent on to direct Extension agents in the region made up by Virginia, North and South Carolina, West Virginia, Kentucky, Maryland, Tennessee, Arkansas, Delaware, and Missouri. Southall Farrar, one of Sandy’s first agent selections, was Virginia’s first youth agent. He started Virginia’s first com clubs in 1908. In 1910, he hired Ella Agnew to head the girls’ program and to form the tomato clubs. Mrs. Agnew was the first woman home demonstration agent in the nation. These programs were forerunners of today’s 4-H operation. It was felt that the teaching of good agricultural and home economics practices to young people would be relayed to the parents. That is an educational technique that is being used today throughout the world. Dr. Eggleston, through his public instructional post, was instrumental in helping the program grow. When Smith-Lever became law in 1914, the U.S. Department of Agriculture took over and extended the work to every portion of the United States. The demonstration work was transferred to Tech and became known as Extension work in agriculture and home economics. When this occurred, there were one state agent, four district agents, 50 county agents, and five special agents. In seven years, Extension had placed programs in 52 counties. One of the first Smith-Lever programs was a 1915 joint venture between Extension and Norfolk and Western Railway. It showed that Extension had always been searching for new ways to reach the public. Ella Agnew wrote in her thoughts on “The Story of the First Decade,” that “The N & W furnished the train, the farm demonstration agents helped the men on the way.” She also noted that they were home economics teachers who were loaned from the State Normal Schools at Farmville, Fredericksburg, Harrisonburg and Radford to help give demonstrations. I The train, which traveled for five I weeks, started from Roanoke. According to the Extension history, ! “college of the Fields,” the train had two livestock cars and an animal display platform. The livestock consisted of one Percheron mare, two Hampshire sheep, one Duroc-Jersey, one Yorkshire and one Berkshire hog, one Guernsey, one Holstein, one Hereford, one Angus, one shorthorn, two Jersey cows, and two shorthorn steers. The train also had two exhibit cars for machinery and outstanding examples of most of the state farm crops. Another car displayed products from women’s demonstrations, three more coaches were used for speaking coaches, and a private car accommodated the speakers. The train was an immediate success, daily attracting between 1,500 and 2,000 persons. Farmers traveled to the “Better Farming Special” from as far away as 20 miles. Agricultural specialists often visited nearby farms while the train was stopped. Jesse M. Jones, who directed Extension from 1916 through 1919, wrote, “the scope of the w'ork is so broad that there are few' farm or home problems the division cannot help solve and the service is free, honest, and impartial to all people within the state. By this means, agriculture and rural life generally are being readjusted on a higher plane of profit, dignity, and power.” Extension focused on another innovation during this period - movable schools. They generally focused on horticulture, home economics, dairying, and general agriculture. The movable schools w'ere simply demonstration lessons that were taught by Extension staff members who moved their equipment and knew-how to various locations. Forty-five such schools were held between 1916 and 1918. The fourth arm of Extension, community resource development, also can point to having started with the Smith-Lever Act. And, in truth. Extension has been involved in im proving communities since the verj beginning, even if there were no agents specified for the area. In “College of the Fields,” it says the farm and home development program is regarded by many as the forerunner to CRD.

^Sports and Outdoor Life Red Sox bump Astros from first place Last Saturday, the Red Sox overcame a seven-run deficit to bump the Amissville Astros from first place in the Bambino League. Cory Carroll started the game for the Astros and stayed in control until the fourth inning, when the Red Sox erupted for four runs on good base-running and hits by P^ul Brown and Willie Shanks. In the fifth, the Red Sox added another five runs on two walks, tow hits and a home run by Willie Shanks. The Red Sox continued their offensive barrage in the sixth inning, adding an additional two insurance runs after Jason Waters drew a walk and was brought home by Paul Brown’s home run, his fourth hit of the day. The Astros scored twice in the first, four runs in the second and once more in the third to build a 7-0 lead until the Red Sox spoiled their day in the later innings. With that victory the Red Sox are in sole possession of first place with a 3-1 record. The surging Yankees are following closely behind at 4-2. Before the game, Astros Coach Ronald Dodson and Red Sox Coach Julian Brown pondered playing a double-header to make up for previously rained-out games. But after the game both coaches said they were drained from the excitement of the first game. “I don’t think that I could take another one like this right now,” Coach Brown quipped. The Bambino League action has been exciting this year, Coach Don Dorrell added, and the kids love to have their parents and neighbors attend the games and show their support for the youngsters and for Little League Baseball. “Everyone is urged to come out to the ballgames and cheer on their favorite mm Photo courtesy of Butch Zindel THE T-BALL LEAGUE COMPETITION is hot. In a recent game, batter Joey O'Donnell of the Amissville Tigers swats a hit, as Rappahannock Lions catcher Amanda Brown watches. teams as the playoffs draw nearer.” A schedule for the league playoffs and the championship games will be announced prior to the contests. On Thursday, June 22, the Rappahannock Yankees rallied for three runs in the top of the sixth inning and held on for an 8-6 win over the aggressive Amissville Bulldogs. The game was clearly up for grabs all the way, as Josh Hitt pitched a strong game for the Bulldogs until the Yankees stuck him for three runs in the sixth on Donald Dorrell’s two-run homer and Mark Jenkins’ heads-up baserunning. In the bottom of the sixth Dorrell struck out Hitt for the first out. but then walked Darren Thorpe. He reached back for a little extra, however, and struck out John Diggs and Justin Deal for the final two outs. With that victory the Yankees ran their record to 4-2 while the loss dropped the Bulldogs record to 1-4. In other action around the league, on June 20 the Bulldogs beat the Blazers 18-15 at Amissville’s Stuart Field. At Rappahannock’s home field at RCES, the Yankees clobbered the Astros, 36-8, behind the hitting of Donald Dorrell, who went 5 for 6, with nine RBIs; and Tim O’Meara, who also went 5-6 at the plate and contributed five RBIs. Coach Dorrell added that the thoughts of all the league’s players and coaches are with "Mutt” Atkins, who is recovering from a broken leg suffered several weeks ago at his home in Sperryville. “Mr. Atkins is an avid baseball fan and we know he misses the action as much as we miss our number one fan.” Picnic food safety means thinking, planning BLACKSBURG - Picnics are part of summer fun, but a foodbome illness can spoil the fun. Think of v food safety as you plan the menu for a picnic. Bacteria that cause foodborne illness grow very rapidly at warm temperatures. When food is taken on an outing, it is more difficult - but just as important - to follow the basic food safety rule of “Keep hot food hot and cold food cold,” said Jo Anne Barton, Virginia Cooperative Extension spe' cialist in foods and nutrition. On a picnic, as at any meal, perishable food should not be left at room temperature longer than two hours, including preparation time at home and at the picnic site. Some traditional picnic food such as potato salad, macaroni salad, or ham salad have to be handled carefully. These salads must be kept cold. Divide large amounts into smaller containers so that the food will cool quickly all the way through. Food in the center of a large container may remain warm enough to allow bacteria to grow even though the container is in the refrigerator. When traveling with food, the U.S. Department of Agriculture says that items such as potato salad should start cold and be kept cold in an insulated container with a source of ice. At picnics, keep food in insulated containers with the lid on and leave them in the shade, said Sue Templin, home economist with the USD A Meat and Poultry hotline. A popular method of preparing food in the summer is to grill it. Ms. Templin cautioned against using marinade from a meat dish as a sauce unless the marinade is heated. There is a danger of cross contamination of bacteria from the raw meat into the sauce. Another option would be to save some of the marinade before putting the raw meat in it. She added that the cook should use a clean plate to carry the cooked meat from the grill to the serving area. The plate on which the raw meat was carried to the grill may be a source of contamination. Food safety practices need to be followed all year, Barton said. Wash hands thoroughly in warm, soapy water before preparing food. Wash utensils, cutting boards and surfaces that come in contact with raw food. To thaw frozen food safely, place the item in the refrigerator until it is thawed. This method takes awhile, but it is safe because the temperature of the food does not reach the point that allows bacteria to grow. Refrigerate perishable food to keep it safe. Refrigerators should be kept at 40 degrees Fahrenheit, freezers at 0 F.

Hospital donates first aid kits The Northern Virginia 4-H Center recently received safety kits for its summer camping program donated by Warren Memorial Hospital. The kits, about the size of medium-sized boxes, are filled by thy emergency department staff at Warren Memorial Hospital and include such medical items as Band-Aids, Ace bandages, splints, dressings, eye patches and neosporin ointment. “WTe are pleased to help the Northern Virginia 4-H Center in any way we can. It is our way of saying thanks to the Center for everything they have done for our community,” says C. Douglas Rosen, Administrator of Warren Memorial Hospital. The kits serve three purposes at the 4-H Center. One is used in the swimming pool area, a second is used in the safety junior camping program for ages 9-12 and the third is used in outpost education, including such programs as camping and aquatics. Outpost education reaches out to those who have let the facility. but wish to participate in the programs offered at the 4-H center. f How to turn a window into a Windowscapc.

Fourth Continued from page 1 rities, including columnist James J. Kilpatrick and Senator Eugene McCarthy serving up “Heavenly Dips" of ice cream to cool the heated festival-goers. "Holy Chow" will be available from other members of the congregation, and the “Resurrection Section" offers white elephant seekers the opportunity to indulge their weakness. One block north on Gay St., the Rappahannock County Library will hold its annual used book sale. At noon, on the steps of the courthouse, the Declaration of Independence will be read by a group of tow r.speople in colonial costume. At ll:ho a.m., churchbells throughout the town will toll, signaling the crowd to assemble for the patriotic pageant. Among the afternoon’s events are the arrival of the Pegasus MedEvac helicopter about 1 p.m. The chopper's flight crew will explain this state-of-the-art emergency medical tool. Chief Roach added that the helicopter \Vill still be on call, so it may be late in arriving, anti may ha\e to leave at a moment's notice if its services are needed elsewhere. Extension Continued from page 12 1955 that rural development education was stressed by Undersecretary of Agriculture True Morse. In recent years, CRD has concentrated on community education, community improvement, crime prevention, 4-H, land use and planning, public policy and local government, manpower, recreation and tourism, and rural development. But one thing hasn’t changed in Virginia Extension - the desire to help Virginians achieve a better quality of rife. And the words that Mr. Dietrick wrote in 1948 are still true. “The Extension Service is the college of the fields.’ Through it the campus of. . . . is extended to every community in the state." Citizens of the state who are unable to become resident students are thus enabled to benefit from the findings of the Experiment Station and the programs of the College. F Pegasus, based at the University of Virginia Medical Center’s shocktrauma unit, supplies medical evacuation services throughout the northern and central Piedmont. Chief Roach said that he has also invited the county's fire and rescue companies to bring their new apparatus to display on the lawn as well. Also during the afternoon, a number of antique and classic cars are expected to arrive. The car show will be held on the lawn of Avon Hall. During the afternoon there will be country and western, bluegrass and gospel bands providing live music. One will play on the Courthouse lawn; the other location has not been announced. In years past, there have also been several informal r I -groups playing music at other locations in town. And there will be plenty of food and variety to suit any taste. "There’s going to be so much food," Chief Roach said, rolling his eyes. “Different stuff, good stuff." The fire department's pig roast begins at 4 p.m. on the monument grounds between the town hall and the courthouse. There will also be food for sale on the streets. The fire department will have its popular bratwurst stand and also fresh corn on the cob. The Sperry ville Volunteer Rescue Squad is selling strawberry shortcakes and fresh fruit cups, and the Lions Club will offer chilled watermelon slices and cold Rappahannock apple cider. i Cooperation requested from holiday visitors With an event as large as Washington's Fourth of July celebration. there's bound to be logistical problems. When between 5,000 and 10.000 visitors descend on a town of less than -50 residents, inconveniences are to be expected. Fortunately, the town’s experience with its annual festival has. in the past, kept problems to a minimum. Sheriff John Henry Woodward said that, as in past years. Gay St. will be closed to traffic for the entire day from Middle St. (Business 211) to its end beyond Mount Salem Ave. Mount Salem Ave., from Main St. to its intersection with I’.S. 211, w ill be one-way headed east out of town. Sheriff Woodward requested that Mount Salem Ave. be kept as clear of traffic as possible for the convenience of residents who live along that street. Parking will be available at the fire department’s pro|>erty at the base of Middle St. just off F.S. 211. There will also be additional parking available for early arrivals along the town's streets, but again Sheriff Woodward requested that visitors respect the areas marked with "No Parking" signs. Fire Chief Roger Roach, Mayor Dean Morehouse and Wil liam Carrigan, host of the evening program on the lawn of his Avon Hall home, all requested that visitors use the litter barrels which will-be placed throughout the town. There will also be "portapots" set up on the grounds of Avon Hall, on the monument grounds adjacent to the courthouse, and at other locations around the town. First aid will be available at several locations from the area's volunteer rescue squads, which will also have ambulances and advanced medical equipment for more serious emergencies. Sheriff Woodward reminded everyone of the danger of illegal fireworks, which he said seems greater than ever in this area this year. A Frederick County man had his hands nearly blown off last week when an illegal firework exploded as he lit it. The sheriff, along with Mr. Carrigan, Chief Roach and Mayor Morehouse, asked that no private fireworks be brought onto the grounds of Avon Hall. Lastly, the sheriff warned that public consumption of alcoholic beverages is a misdemeanor under Virginia law. and that his department will be alert for anyone under the influence during the celebration, as wjll as intoxicated drivers on the roads. There will also be homemade goat cheese and South American hot sausages among other international delicacies. For those with all-American palates, there will also be hot dogs and hamburgers. Other activities in town during the day will include carriage rides, train rides, pony rides, a dunking booth featuring Washington's Mayor Dean Morehouse and other celebrities. The evening program, held for the 2Sth year on the grounds of Avon Hall, will feature entertainment for the entire family, Mr. Thomasson said. Around dinner time, events there will begin. William Carrigan, who along with his late wife Ramona have Served as hosts for the evening program on the lawn of Avon Hall, invites Rappahannock County residents and friends to bring their picnic dinners and blankets and spread their tables on Courthouse Hill, where Mr. Carrigan promises an excellent vantage point for both the evening program and the fireworks. The theme for this year’s program will be the 240th birthday of the Town of Washington, which was founded in 1749. “Independence Day is an appropriate time to celebrate our .birthday," said Mayor Morehouse, “even though the official date is Aug. 0.” The traditional luminari, a fixture of the program at Avon Hall each year, will be along that theme. But, also true to tradition, the design of the luminari will remain a secret until the candles are actually lit at dusk. There will be games for children, organized by Child Care and Learning Center Director Rose Ann Sharp, including a tug-of-war, sack races and other events. There will also be a performance by a group of costumed riders and their Arabian horses, which have been a favorite in past years. As dusk begins to fall, New Liberty will entertain with a concert of bluegrass music. After the performance, a group of community singers will lead the crowd in singing patriotic songs. That will lead to the singing of “The Star-Spangled Banner," which the crowd will be asked to participate in, followed by the fireworks’ display, coordinated again this year with classical music. "Mr. Carrigan. the town and the fire department invite everyone to come and enjoy the show,” Mr. Morehouse said. “But please, for the safety of others, leave your fireworks at home.” o 9% Annual Rate 9 Month CD Get more bang for your bucks with a 9-month certificate of deposit from Farmers and Merchants. .

Mr. Massie said they would try to bring the tables and charts up to date, study future trends in agriculture, and make recommendations to the Planning Commission. "Pm concerned with the preservation of healthy agriculture. We ought to know where we stand,” Mr. Abell said. Mr. McCarthy said the committee could “attack a number of issues at once." He recommended that Agricultural Extension Agent Tommy Williams also serve on the committee. The planners decided to pursue the agriculture study, and suggested that anyone else interested in serving on the committee contact their district’s planning commissioner or Mr. McCarthy. ROW widening sought Mr. McCarthy told the planners that representatives of the Rappahannock Electric Co-operative would appear at the July meeting to suggest that the county amend its zoning ordinance to provide for 40foot rather than 25-foot rights-ofway for 15‘kilovolt power lines. He said that the power company says it is impossible to keep the 25foot rights-of way cleared on a fouryear cycle, and that with only 12 and a half feet on either side of the power line, any ice storm can cause trees to fall on the lines. Phil Irwin, a veteran of campaigns to limit the stringing of power lines across the county, said, “They’re talking about low voltage, that goes to the transformers before it goes to your house. It’s a way to keep the trees cleared back, and I have no problem with that ... I’d like to suggest again at the same time you modify the existing ordinance by preventing construction of a residence or any significant structure within 100 feet of the transmission lines." Mr. Irwin added that his suggestion for a restriction on construction would apply only to the major lines such as the 128.5 kv line coming into Sperrvville from Lurav and the 34.5 kv line going from Sperryville to Front Royal. He said that any time the power companies want to upgrade the amount of power in their lines, they clear a whole new corridor. They say they can’t upgrade along existing rights-of-way because houses are built too close to the lines. “We ought to keep people from giving the power company that excuse.” Mr. McCarthy noted that some properties along the line from the Shenandoah National Park boundary to the substation in Sperryville are so small that requiring 100-foot setbacks from the transmission lines might "amount to a taking” of the properties. He said he would get together with Mr. Irwin to study the "impacts on properties” of such a change in the zoning ordinance. “That could cause a problem in Chester Gap too," Mr. Massie suggested. Draft ClP presented The planners also received copies of the first work on the county’s proposed capital improvements’ program. Mr. McCarthy had provided them with a list of all capital facilities and another list previously approved capital projects through those included in the newly-adopted budget. Mr. Fannon questioned whether it was necessary to list a $1,500 copying machine as a capital improvement. “Unlike other office equipment, we don’t rotate them out of service on a regular basis,” Mr. McCarthy said. “The next step up is computers,” he said. After some discussion the planners decided to set a dollar amount and not consider anything costing less than $5,000 as a capital improvement. “The supervisors recognize we need help in evaluating competing demands,” Mr. McCarthy said. This year, he noted that the Fire and Rescue Association had come in with requests for $15,000 in capital improvements. “The landfill was a rude awakening for all of us,” he said. “I thought you were going to project land acquisition,” Dr. Krebser commented. Mr. McCarthy said the current documents only go through the new budget year. “I project that in the future, we’re going to need land for a middle school or for general government purposes.” Mr. McCarthy said the next step would be for him to ask each agency to give him a list of plans for capital improvements in the next five years. The planners also recommendad approval to the request by Richard N. and Joy L. Cartwright-Brown for TOURISM WORK FOR VIRGINIA. a special use permit for a two-bedroom bed and breakfast in their home near Castleton. The approval is contingent on health and highway 5, department approval, and includes a 1 provision that any sign for the business not be larger then six square feet. When Mrs. Cartwright-Brown asked where the sign could be put, Mr. McCarthy told her that it could be any place on their property, and noted that their house was on a right-of-way. He said the sign could be put there if the right-of-way owner gave permission. Mr. Irwin noted that the state is in the process of forming an organization of bed and breakfast owners. Among the standards expected to be adopted by that body would be one which would recommend that bed and breakfasts not be located along rights-of way. “All the B and B’s have been operating in a nevernever land,” he said. The new criteria would specify that any bed and breakfast have access to a state highway. “I notice that the B and B people who are all established now want to set up certain criteria,” Dr. Krebser commented. The planners also recommended approval to a request by Margaret Davis Morris to subdivide a nine acre parcel from her 53-acre property. “It seems we have made our bed on this,” Mr. Fannon said. “If we approve one, we have to approve another. Under present conditions this is the only division that can be made. It’s really important to have it recorded that the density rights have been impacted.” “I have a concern when we get this kind of application and the applicant doesn’t want to take the time to come in,” Dr. Krebser said. “I don’t approve the division until the deed has been recorded,” Mr. McCarthy said. Planning Conmmission Chairman Allen Stokes pointed out that a potential new owner could come in requesting a subdivision before a title search had been done and turned up the deed restriction. Mr. ' McCarthy said he didn’t check with any subdivision in which the parcels were greater that 50 acres, but that for one with smaller parcels, he would check to see what other divisions had been allowed. As the meeting was breaking up, Mr. Massie noted that according to the comprehensive plan the county was supposed to “try to work with the Town of Washington in zoning matters.” He suggested that the code would allow the county Planning Commission to appoint one of its members to serve on the town Planning Commission and the town Planning Commission could appoint one of its members to serve on the county Planning Commission. Hampton District representative John Clark Jr. said, “They’ll say we’re interfering in their business." After members noted that this could result in eight members with votes resulting in ties, Mr. McCarthy said that could be resolved by having the Board of Supervisors appoint an at-large member. “Then to have a quorum, we’d need five,” Dr. Krebser said. “I think John Clark is right, they’ll say ‘The county is meddling in our business,’” Mr. Fannon said. The planners decided not to recommend any action on the idea until the public had had a chance to react. Continued from page 10 1/4 cup milk Combine vinegar, celery seed, and mustard seed; set aside.

Dogs Continued from page 1 ning confirmed Warden Pullen’s report. The dogs, held in four runs, ran freely with each other and seemed completely at ease. There was none of the aggressive behavior which would be expected if strange dogs were put in a confined area together. An approach to the cage drew furious tail-wagging from the canines inmates, who seemed eager for attention. “They know about kennels,” Warden Pullen said, "and they have been in traps before. They wouldn’t bite for that.” He said that, according to reports from residents, the dogs had not strayed far at all from the place they were originally seen. When he drove his truck slowly down the road, “There they were. Dogs came out from everywhere.” “There's definitely something going on," Warden Pullen said, but he’s been unable to find any clue to where the dogs came from. He has called the animal shelters in surrounding counties, and searched for tattoos on the animals — all to no avail. “I’ve called everybody I know of and come up with nothing," he said, shaking his head. Mrs. Drake said that the animal control officers in Fauquier County picked up two Shephards last week whose descriptions sounded similar to the ones found in Rappahannock County. She said that she has called the National Humane Society. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, the National Pet Registry and Action 81, but can find no reports of missing animals matching these descriptions. She speculated that it is possible that the dogs were stolen somewhere else and that whoever had them got scared and dumped the dogs. Or, they may have been used by a laboratory for experiments and then released. A resident reported seeing a white van, covered with mud which obscured its license plate, near Washington on the same day one group of the dogs was found. Mrs. Drake said the general description matches a van which was seen cruising the roads in Fauquier County in the area where dogs disappeared last November. She added that the league is investigating reports of possible dog thefts in Rappahannock recently. mm mm WA H i W &*** *> Rappahannock News photo/Lou Hatter EAGER FOR ATTENTION, five of the dogs abandoned near Washington last week crowd the mesh of their cages as v isitors approach. About 10 animals have disappeared under what she called “suspicious" circumstances. The disappearances have been concentrated along the Fodderstack Road and in Gid Brown Hollow, where six dogs have been reported missing. Warden Pullen is working with the animal group to plot the suspicious incidents. And. Mrs. Drake said, VDOT’s county headquarters has agreed to file descriptions of any dead dogs they find along the roads to cross-reference with reports of missing animals. That will help, she explained, to clear some of the reports of missing animals. For residents concerned about their pets, Mrs. Drake had some suggestions to prevent theft. Foremost, she said, "keep a closer eye on your animals. We live in the country, and we're so used to letting our dogs go and not really keeping a close eye on them." At the least, when the dog is outside in the yard, be aware of where he is all the time. Better yet, she added, is to put the dog in a caged run or on a chain when he's let outside. And, when you leave, put the dog inside, even if it's just in the basement. Dogs on chains outside Vit 1' - Merrill Lynch Realty Introducing!!

Mrs. Drake suggested that residents also be aware of vans or trucks which suddenly show up and cruise the area. In some cases in the past, people have seen cages inside these vehicles. In others, the license plates have been partially or completely hidden by mud. One tip to a vehicle being from outside the area is that it will not display a Rappahannock County tax sticker. These white and red stickers are on the windshield next to the inspection sticker. "If there are thieves working in the area, they will look around. They will usually scope the area pretty carefully before they move in," Mrs. Drake said. She said that she will be trained and will offer tattooing for animals within the next few weeks. That process offers owners the ability to place their social security number or other identification as a permanent tattoo on the animal, which aids return if it is stolen. Also, laboratories which use animals for experiments will generally not accept animals which are tattooed unless the seller has proof of legal purchase. The short-term problem for Warden Pullen and Mrs. Drake, however, is finding homes for the German Shephards found last week. The county has agreed to extend the usual five-day time limit allotted to stray dogs in hopes that homes can be found. “They're good dogs,” Mr. Pullen said. “With a good home, they could make some people some good pets.” Residents interested in adopting one of the animals may call Trish Drake (675-3443) or contact Warden Ray Pullen through the county dispatch office (675-3331 or 987-8787). Residents interested in joining the Rappahannock Animal Welfare League, or assisting icith any of its activities, may also call Mrs. Drake (ti?5-J44d). The league has also set up a registry for lost and found animals in the county. That listing is being coordinated by Xan Reddick (987-8045).

Emergency Feed Program Rappahannock County is now approved to implement the Emergency Feed Program (EFP) and the Emergency Feed Assistance Program (EFAP), according to Linda Henry, County Executive Director of the local ASCS office. Rappahannock has been approved as a contiguous county. To qualify for emergency feed, Ms. Henry said a livestock owner must have suffered a 40 percent loss of total feed production on the farm because of a natural disaster, which resulted in a need for purchases of feeding quantities larger than normal for eligible livestock. Eligible livestock are cattle, sheep, horses, mules, swine, goats and poultry which have been owned at least six months; or, if owned less than six. months, they are either offspring of eligible livestock or were purchased as a normal operation and not to obtain additional benefits. Only foundation livestock" is eligible for assistance under the Emergency Feed Program. The maximum assistance avail June Special! All Typing $2 per page. Have you waited 3 days for a typing job?
