ARB Chairman Miller resigns By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Charging that the Town Council’s decision to allow the county to construct an addition to the jail means that Washington’s historic buildings cannot be protected, Architectural Review Board Chairman Carol Miller resigned last week. In a letter addressed to Mayor Dean Morehouse and the members of the council, Mrs. Miller noted that the job of an ARB is “difficult, controversial and often very disagreeable.” (Emphasis hers) Mrs. Miller accepted the appointment to the ARB when it was formed in August, 1985, “thinking it was a reasonable price to pay for Historic Building preservation in our town,” her letter continues. However, Mrs. Miller charged, the council’s decision to approve the county’s application for the jail addition, “to allow an historically significant building to be encroached upon in a manner clearly against our standards and guidelines . . . makes it clear to me that our town’s Historic Landmarks cannot be protected in a uniform and impartial manner.” (Emphasis again hers) Mrs. Miller’s letter states that, in her opinion, the council’s decision was “in conflict with the opinion of our expert architectural advisors, and contrary to prior Architectural Review Board decisions with almost the same issues (publicly supported by two members of the Council) ... “If historically significant buildings mentioned in our previous survey cannot be protected, then the Architectural Review Board becomes a ‘Designer Board’ whose decisions will be made with ‘Looks good to me,’ ‘individual taste,’ and ‘personal preference,’ ” Mrs. Miller’s letter states. “Without historic preservation of historically significant buildings I do not feel the Historic District OrdiSee RESIGN, p. 16 Stump dump application withdrawn By SHARON KILPATRICK KapnahannocfcNewa.8*Writer . F. Glenn Frazier withdrew his application for a stump dump at the site of a former quarry on Route 647 just north of Flint Hill when it encountered heavy opposition at the Planning Commission meeting last Wednesday. County Administrator John McCarthy told the planners he had received the site plan the previous Monday. After reviewing it, he had told Mr. Frazier it had “deficiencies.” Mr. McCarthy told the planners there was additional engineering information he would request. Glenn Frazier said he would speak for the application on his father’s behalf. “This is not a trash landfill; it’s just tree stumps, no trash whatsoever,” he said. Peggy Ralph led off for the opponents. She said she lived on Route 647 near where the dump would be located. “There was an application in 1986 when Mr. Gentry owned the property,” she said. “My concerns now are the same as they were then. Route 647 is a curvy, narrow road with hidden driveways. The traffic is worse and worse. There have been several serious accidents. It’s a residential area close to a village. The state is going to designate the road as part of the scenic byway system. ” Mrs. Ralph said her other concern was control over what is dumped in the abandoned quarry. “What assurances do we have that it’s only debris and not some hazardous material?” Mrs. Ralph said that Mr. Frazier’s application said he was doing this because his neighbors had requested it and that some of the people who had opposed the earlier application were “no longer around. I’m a neighbor. I’m still around, and I’m still opposed to it.” After hearing Mrs. Ralph, Mr. Frazier decided to speak on his own behalf. “My neighbors are pushing me to finish it (Tilling in the hole left by the quarry),” he said. “It’s beyond my means to finish it any other way.” See STUMPS, p. 12 ——. - - mm* • : jfr Rappahannock News photo/Lou Halter GYPSY MOTH COORDINATOR Mary Dobrovir, with some help from Zack (left) and Ashley Corbin of Slate Mills, checks one of the gypsy moth traps she is using to chart the moth’s infestation. Background proves natural for gypsy moth coordinator By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer When Rappahannock County decided to employ a gypsy moth coordinator to participate in a federal study, it was lucky to find Mary Dobrovir. Mrs. Dobrovir, with a bachelor’s degree in biology from Brynn Mawr, a master’s degree in genetics from Indiana University, and experience working with the* Agency for International Development on environmental projects, had moved to Rappahannock County with her husband William to be nearer to their horses, which were boarded here for foxhunting with the Rappahannock Hunt. Since coming, besides building a house, she got involved with a neighbor in studying and banding kestrels (sparrow hawks). When she saw the advertisement for the gypsy moth coordinator, Mrs. Dobrovir said, it job sounded like yet another opportunity close to home which would take advantage of her background. Only the southern third of the county is included in the federal Appalachian Integrated Pest Management study, Mrs. Dobrovir explained. The project, which is designed to study the migration of the gypsy moth on its journey south, covers the Appalachian area of Virginia and West Virginia. She is not sure why the rest of the county was left out, but she is grateful that she isn’t responsible for the entire county. After a day of training in Harrisonburg, she was ready to do her part for the AIPM field study. Using three of the U. S. Geological Survey maps which covered the See DOBROVIR, p. 16 Mystery fungus proves fatal to caterpillars There has been excitement this year among the scientists involved in attempts to stop the seemingly invincible advance south of the devastating gypsy moth caterpillars. News reports, originating at the Connecticut Agriculture Experiment Station in Hamden, told of a fungus which apparently kills gypsy moths. Outbreaks of the fungus in Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York have prevented moth damage in thousands of trees. The spores of the fungus apparently attach to the caterpillars’ skin and produce enzymes which eat through into its body. Once established, the fungus grows and kills the caterpillar. Whether the gypsy moth outbreak has been stopped in the affected areas or only delayed, entomologists are reluctant to predict the fungus’s effect until a count of egg masses is completed » in the fall. Scientists have gathered specimens of the fungus and are growing it under controlled laboratory conditions, hoping to identify it and determine why it appeared this spring. “1 think that this is probably something we may never see again,” U.S. Forest Service entomologist Mi chael McManus told the Associated Press. It is possible, some say. that the fungus is one which was released 79 years ago in a futile attempt to control the moths. In 1910 and 1911, according to an AP report, a fungus from Japan which kills caterpillars was released near Boston. It reportedly had little effect, but records indicate the experiment was conducted under adverse weather conditions. The fungus was tried again in 1985 and 1986 in the Allegany State Park in New York and in Shenandoah National Park, but again the experimental results were unclear, In 1985 the caterpillars were also attacked by a virus, and in 1986 a severe drought inhibited the fungus's ability to spread. The drought experience. Dr. McManus pointed out, is one of the weaknesses of the use of a fungus as a biological control. Even if it does attack and kill gypsy moths, it is dependent on sufficient moisture to survive and spread. Experiments with the fungus have also been very limited and tightly controlled by federal regulations. --Lou Hatter VSP pursuit leads to crash A Washington man faces multiple charges after a high speed chase in Sperryville on July 18 caused a Virginia State Trooper to wreck his cruiser. Trooper Sean Michael Knick, 23, of Flint Hill, was not hurt when his patrol car skidded off the right side of Route 211 and into a tree. According to State Police 1st Sgt. D.S. Adams, who investigated the accident, Trooper Knick had received a complaint and attempted to stop a Honda motorcycle for a traffic violation. The rider refused to stop and headed west on U.S. 211 from the Sperryville Exxon station at high speed. Trooper Knick pursued the motorcycle to the intersection of Main St., Route 1001. The motorcycle turned left to evade Trooper Knick, Sgt. Adams said, and the trooper applied his brakes to avoid hitting the sharply braking motorcycle. His car skidded off the right side of U.S. 211 and into a tree. The motorcyclist continued east through Sperryville, avoiding several Rappahannock County Sheriffs Department deputies who were called by Trooper Knick. Several witnesses identified the rider, however, and he was arSee WRECKS, p. 2 Carnival season continues The summer tradition of Firemen’s Carnivals sponsored by the local volunteer fire departments continue, with Chester Gap’s annual event running through Saturday, July 29, followed by Flint Hill’s carnival next week, Aug. 2-5. Chester Gap, according to Chief Todd Brown, has got four nights full of entertainment for the entire family. Thursday, July 27 is Family Night, with anyone buying a $5 ticket able to ride all the rides all night long. The ticket is a great deal for families, Chief Brown added, who can afford to bring the kids for an evening of entertainment without spending a fortune. • On Thursday night as well, live musical entertainment will be provided by R.B.

RICHMOND—The Virginia State Police called special attention last week to a new state law prohibiting the drinking of alcoholic beverage w hile operating a motor vehicle. The 1989 General Assembly amended the Code of Virginia by adding a section numbered 18.2323.1 as follows: “Drinking while operating a motor vehicle; penalty. It shall be unlawful for any person to consume an alcoholic beverage while driving a motor vehicle upon a public highway of this Commonwealth. A violation of this section is punishable as a class 4 misdemeanor.” Governor Gerald Baliles signed the new section and it becane effective July 1. “While it is dangerous for the operator of a motor vehicle to distract his attention from driving for any purpose, it is especially dangerous with regard to the drinking of alcoholic beverages,” said Colonel R. L. Suthard, State Police superintendent. “A driver who has taken the first taste of an alcoholic beverage has simultaneously taken the first step toward becoming a menace on our highways. “A drinking driver’s ability to drive can become impaired prior to reaching a blood alcohol content (BAC) of 0.10 percent, the point at which a person is considered by that fact alone to be intoxicated.” The Class 4 misdemeanor charge attached Uk the- new flaw_ carries, a* penalty of not moreihan an $100 fine and is in addition to any other charges which may occur.

VIRGINIA NEWS From Across The State Debate over use of cameras in race doesn't stay in focus Issue blurs prospect of August debate By MARY K. BLEWITT Arundel Newspapers State Reporter Same place, same time, different story. The story of the unraveled debate between the two candidates for governor runs like a warped reel of film with both sides telling different tales. Democratic candidate Lt. Gov. L. Douglas Wilder walked out on a scheduled formal debate before the Virginia Press Association in Virginia Beach on Saturday. He charges that his opponent, GOP candidate J. Marshall Coleman, stepped over debate guidelines by bringing in video cameras. The Wilder campaign opposed using debate film clips for campaign commercials. The Coleman campaign, which used footage from the Republican Primary debates for previous commercials, denied ever agreeing to debate without the cameras, and said that Wilder was merely attempting to change the rules. “It has been their pattern to try to change the rules at the last minute,” said Dennis Peterson, Coleman’s campaign manager. Wilder said he boycotted the debate as a matter of principle. “Why shouldn’t a man be forced to keep his word?” said Laura F. Dillard, Wilder’s campaign spokesman. Both campaigns met with each other and representatives from the VPA the previous Tuesday to set guidelines for Saturday’s debate. Neither party . agrees what took place at the meeting. “When it came time to set the rules, we agreed no filming would be used for campaign purposes,” said Dillard. “We suggested that we have a complete rundown of the rules,” relates Peterson. “There was no mention of limitations on film — no agreement on it whatsoever.” Coleman and Wilder debated one week earlier at a meeting before the Virginia Bar Association in Sulphur Springs, W.Va. The two candidates have agreed that the ground rules for the Green Briar debate prohibited the use of video tapes for campaign broadcasts. “On a matter of principle, we wrere not going to debate if the cameras were in the room,” Dillard reiterated Wilder's position. Although they say they had no specific plans to use the film footage for commercials, members of the Coleman campaign said that they reserved the right to do so. While the Coleman campaign says the practice of filming the debates is common, the Wilder campaign insists that using debate footage for campaign commercials is never done. “The burden of proof lies with those that want to change a very standard operating procedure,” said Dillard. “We routinely do it all of the time,” argued Peterson, who contends that the Wilder campaign also had a media crew at the debate site. Who was right and who was wrong? “There is no right or wrong in politics,” explained Larry Sabato, professor of government and political analyst at the University of Virginia. “It’s all a matter of strategy.” Sabato speculated that both party candidates were hurt by the Virginia Beach incident. Coleman, he said, was set back because he was deprived of the opportunity to redeem himself after the West Virginia debate at which Sabato believes Wilder proved strongest. Wilder was hurt, said Sabato, because he miscalculated the reaction of the debate. In a press conference in lieu of the debate, Wilder was hammered with questions from disappointed members of the media. Included in the press conference were some questions from Coleman’s list of debate queries. Questions raised concerned a vacant Richmond house previously owned by Wilder that was cited for building code violations and Wilder’s former practice of collecting speaking fees. The recent rift between the candidates has placed a question mark after a proposed debate in Fairfax County on Aug. 18. Both campaigns said that they are anxious to debate and would be favorable to a Fairfax debate; however, Wilder and Coleman remain firm on their positions on the use of film footage. “We want to be able to discuss the issues,” said Dillard, adding that the Wilder campaign would favor televised debates shown in full. “We have never agreed to an Aug. 18 debate,”' said Peterson, but the Coleman campaign would be! interested if no restrictions were placed on camera j use. “Other than that — nope,” added Peterson. u Conscience is small inner voice that doesn’t speak your langyage.,,, Merit Crossword Ptlzzles Plus -------l.'il'fo ll_VI _ The Village Cafe WEEKEND BREAKFAST SPECIAL Build your own Omelet Also: Belgian Waffle with fresh whipped cream berries DAILY LUNCHEON SPECIALS DINNER SERVED FRIDAY - SUNDAY Special Attraction: Live Music by Dan Lewis Saturday, August 5 Fresh baked desserts and breads Hours: Monday - ftiday 7a.m. to 3p.m. Saturday Ik Sunday 9a.m. to 4p.m. Friday - Sunday 6p.m. to 10p.m. (Next to the Post Office In Washington, Va) 703-675-3877 Quaint enough for a romantic dinner or certainly affordable for the entire family.

BLEWITT Arundel Newspaper* State Writer FRONT ROYAL — Avtex Fibers Front Roya} Inc. and FMC Corp. notified the Environmental Protection Agency last Thursday, July 20, of their plans to comply with an EPA order to clean up groundwater contamination caused by the rayon manufacturing plant in Front Royal. Included in the cleanup process are plans to cleanse retired waste basins that may still be contaminating the ground water along the banks of the Shenandoah River. The EPA received a written notice of compliance from Avtex and FMC Corp. The hand-delivered letter was a response to a unilateral EPA order issued to the two companies on June 30 compelling them to submit a cleanup plan for EPA approval within 20 days of the order. “We didn’t know what to expect, or what their response would be,” said Peter Ludzia, the EPA enforcement manager, “but we were pleased that the companies came in under the time frame provided by the EPA.” The order was issued after Avtex and FMC Corp. failed to negotiate a voluntary cleanup agreement, according to Luzia. “Avtex and FMC Corp. have reached an agreement as to actions and tasks each company will take to implement the plan,” said Avtex spokesman Nick Nichols. The cost of the cleanup, to be shared between the two companies, is estimated at between $9 million and $10 million. Waste basins located at the 50year-old Avtex plant and designed to hold viscose waste were discovered leaking in 1983. Hazardous chemicals then traveled through vertical rock formations underneath the Shenandoah River, contaminating groundwater in residential areas and farm land across the river. Avtex Fibers Inc. responded by purchasing the contaminated site and pumping the tainted water up through its on-site waste water treatment plant, sending the treated water into the river. The site was declared a federal Superfund site in 1986. The EPA halted the Avtex treatment process in June of 1987 until a feasibility study to learn the nature and extent of the contamination was conducted. By September of 1988, the EPA had agreed that the original cleanup process selected by Avtex was the most effective solution. Avtex and FMC Corp. are now charged with the responsibility of selecting a contractor by Aug. 4 and devising a work plan by Sept. 18. The cleanup process must involve reinstituting the back pumping proc ess, as well as draining the residue from the three waste basins. “In all likelihood, the basins are continuing to contaminate," admitted Ludzia. “This is a very serious matter," said Wayne R. Walters, assistant regional council for the EPA. He added that the cleanup process will be fully overseen by the EPA. The rayon manufacturing company is also under the eyes of the state. Avtex was given one year to meet state standards for carbon disulfide emissions after failing to convince the State Air Pollution Control Board that its emissions levels were safe for human health. The company also awaits a state circuit court judge’s response to the State Water Control Boards charges that Avtex violated an agreement with the state to cease polluting the South Eork of the river. While the company admits that its water pollution continued, it argues that the pollution was caused by unforeseeable leaks and breakdowns at the plant. The judge is expected to respond early next month. If found in violation of the consent decree and forced to pay the $2 million fine immediately, the company would be forced to shut down, according Avtex Lawyer Timothy G. Hayes. Amissville man killed in Warren Warren County Sheriffs Department investigators are looking for the killer of Aubrey Nelson Morris, 43, of Amissville, who was bludgeoned to death last week in Warren County. Mr. Morris’ body was discovered by a fisherman July 22. It was in the back of his cream-colored Ford Econoline van, which was parked on Gooney Creek near Karo Landing off U.S. 340 south of Front Royal. The medical examiner’s office in Fairfax established the cause of death as a blow to the head. V ayne s 404 S.

Audit Bureau of Circulation THURSDAY, JULY 27,1989 Abortion issue may prove no-win ■ By JOHN GOOLRICK Rappahannock New Special Writer The U.S. Supreme Court, with its recent ruling on abortion, has thrown a spitball of sorts to politicians in Virginia and across the nation. The emotionally-charged issued poses both danger and opportunity for the two men running for governor in the state this year, L. Douglas Wilder and J. Marshall Coleman. As fall approaches, their strategists will have to figure whether to make the abortion issue a major part of their campaigns or attempt to tamp it down as one that might put them in no-win situtations. Since 1973 politicians on both sides of the abortion issue have been able to hide comfortably behind the Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade edict that gave women a right to abortion under carefully prescribed conditions. Now, while Roe v. Wade was not struck down, the court has tossed back to the states the right to put more sumgeni controls on its availability. But abortion is an issue with little room for compromise. People are either for it or against it. Produce people want a nearly unrestricted right to abortion. Pro-life people think abortion is immoral per se, though some would allow its use in cases of rape or incest. For Wilder and Coleman and others in political races making abortion a high-profile issue inflames feelings among groups that have many members who are notoriously single-issue when it comes to elections. In the minds of many political observers, neither Wilder or Coleman has much to gain from a protracted abortion debate that overshadows other issues relating to Virginia’s budget or roads or education of drug enforcement. Coleman already has the anti-abortion vote in his pocket and Wilder has the pro-choice vote. They have to reach out to that large body of voters whose feelings about abortion are more ambivalent and who will judge them on a myriad of issues and not just one. After all, no member of the State Senate faces re-election until 1991 and that clearly means efforts to inject more state control of abortion as a result of the recent court ruling wjll fail. That’s because a Senate committee that deals with such matters is solidly pro-choice. With more court pronouncements on abortion Ok! Dominion Politics due in the future, a prospective governor can take note of that and try to defuse the issue. Of course, politicians who attempt to keep abortion in the background will still have to contend with the pro-choice and pro-life activists who want to make it the major focus of both statewide and House of Delegates races in Virginia this year. They want spirited debate on the rights of women versus the rights of the unborn instead of chitchat about budgetary procedures, commuter nightmares and the quality of education in public schools. Though polls purport to show most people believe women have a right with proper restrictions, to abortion, they dso purport to show most of those surveyed think abortion is an immoral way of birth con trui. Thus, Virginia politicians operating in a state that is still basically conservative can’t have any real feel for how to play the abortion card. A two edged sword can cut both ways. Wilder and Coleman and stragegists for other candidates are undoubtedly approaches to an issue that seemed settled 16 years ago but has been resurrected by a far more conservative Supreme Court. There may well be an unspoken mutual consent on both sides to play dowm abortion in the gubernatorial race and play up more traditional issues. Even so, the court has guaranteed that the isssue will have a role of some kind, whether large or not, in the coming elections. And not only that, it will be around in the stae legislature for years to come. A fixture at the State Capitol come January will be grou}^ of pro and anti-abortion forces competing for the attention of legislators. The stage may be set for some ugly confrontations between the two groups. John Goolrick covered Virginia politics and ths State legislature as a journalist for almost 25 years. He is now a press aide to Congressman D. French Slaughter Jr. (R-7th,Va) opinions expressed are his own. Commentary Rappahannock News photo'Cindy Mahan Rappahannock Heritage DESPITE THE HEAT, Elaine Cassel takes Topper, her five-year-old Arabian, for a ride along the Fodderstack Road. Letters to the editor Ignorance is not bliss To the editor: A county, like any group of people, without youth will not prosper and grow. The youth are the future. Rappahannock County has spent many years trying to shelter it’s youth from the outside world, but that time is over. In a decade where education is extremely important many youth leave to obtain a higher education. Those leaving see the outside world without any preparation and it shocks them. When leaving Rappahannock most youth know only what they have seen on the 11:00 news and read in the Rappahannock News. The world we live in is not as “nice” as our county leaders would like to present it to us. Speaking as a former youth that did leave Rappahannock for a highter education, my teachers did not prepare me for what I found. Classes were harder than for what my college preperatory courses supposedly prepared me. The world is a lot harder and colder than what I imagined. My first experience at school was of my roomate being mugged and a week later I saw a man knifed. Along with these shocking experiences there were also good things like being able to go to movies or get a pizza without driving 45 minutes. The world is full of good and bad. You cannot neglect us, by think SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL SHERIFF NO. Z I * c«" ing ignorance is bliss. Eventually we will learn that there are better places and leave Rappahannock. It has happened before and it will happpen again. The youth will leave and the county will die. The schools taught us that reading, writing, and arithmatic were unimportant to us. In this school system I learned little and had grades which reflected that. I left and went to where ignorance is not bliss. I learned and have grades which reflect what I have accomplished and I am proud of these grades. MTV and The Playboy channel are not my idea of preparing youth for the outside world, but many educational and informational programs could certainly help prepare us. Our teachers should be more concerned with the importance of reading, writing, and arithmatic as basic to our educatuon rather than telling us what to watch on television. Moral issues should be left to our parents while teachers should do just that: teach. I am not advocating putting up a Pizza Hut and a 10 screen movie theatre, but a little progress would be nice to help prepare us for what lies ahead and eventually bring us back to Rappahannock. Tourism alone will not keep this county alive. Please give those younger than I the opportunity to learn what is out in the world and<also a little recreation at the same time. A movie on a Saturday night on HBO at home could be a lot safer than a teen driving 45 minutes to and from the movies late at night, when the roads are not particularly safe. Maybe you’ll find the youth more willing to return and keep this county alive by raising their own children here. As for the poorer youth they may not be able to leave for higher education and see the outside world as it is, but they could at least see it through educational cable T.V. Not even the poorest of us should be denied an education. Cable T.V. offers all of us that. CHANDRA ELDRED Washington Serious error To the editor: A serious typographical error appeared in my recent letter to you. The reference to “God-given” did capitalize our Lord’s name, as I had done. A simple way we have of showing reverence, but an important way to show we believe that His name is, indeed, “hallowed.” My thanks for this correction. CELKA K. PRESCOTT Washington Editor’s note: Due to a typographical error the “G” in God-given was set lower case rather than capitalized in Mr. Prescott’s letter. No disrespect or irreverence was intended. Responsible for others, too To the editor: Many who support “Freedom of choice” don’t realize that we are all responsible for how our actions and words affect others. Those same people who believe in the Lord above, should also know' that the Lord wants us to be concerned about what may or may not harm us and our )ieighbors. There is evidence that sexually explicit material and graphic violence does indeed do injury to emotional and psychological well-being of people (young and old). The Playboy Channel and MTV may not be regulated by federal laws, but does that mean that their “entertaining” sexual and violent material should not then affect us? . The uneducated child as well as the educated child will be harmed by watching the Playboy Channel because children, including adolescents, don’t have their value systems established and they are continulally learning how they should conduct themselves. Yes, good parent education is the answer to matters like Family Life Education and cable TV, but tha^. and, a genuine caring for one another is what is lacking today. So, whether of not we are parents, we must also be concerned about other children other adolescents, other adults. Someone else’s children will be the adults of tomorrow-intermingling with us and our children, and, making decisions with us. If they are harmed as children, thdy will grow to be distorted adults. • i ; We must be concerned about pot only our children, but all children and young people. It is for this reason that Mr. Heddleston and Ret . Von Fange ought to be applaU^dd for their efforts! JOAN BACHI BEATTIE Woodville Movie ratings only guide To the editor: If the letters you have printed about Thomas Von Fange’s efforts to produce a community standard on obscenity are representative of public attitudes, we need not worry much. I write again on the matter only because the Rev. Von Fange misrepresents the movie rating system. It is an advisory system operated by the movie industry, although not all movie makers subscribe to it. It has no force of law. Mreover, the Rev. Von Fange is confused about the ratings themselves. A “PG 13” rating means that theater operators should not admit persons under 17 unless they are accompanied by a parent or guardian. . ' The rating system allows me freely to choose what I permit my children to see, which is as it should be. As it turns out, my children are rather sensible, so I don’t worry about it much. 1 Parents w ho are more concerned than I, however, ought to know that I know of no instance of teenagers being denied admission to a movje theater. Parents who want censorship have to be their own censors; the movie rating system mil not do it for them. W. MICHAEL MAHONEY Washington Old days gone forever To the editor: Where has the respect gone for Amissville’s older Fire Department and Auxilliary Members? I would like to know where Cathy Smith, The Rappahannock News Correspondent, for Amissville got her information about this being the first year for the. Little Prince contest at Amissville’s carnival! I know you are new to this community and to the Fire Department, but if you are going to put things in the paper please get all your facts straight. Also if some of these so-called firefighters and new auxiliary members were respectable they would have told you this was not the first time for this contest. I cannot believe or understand why the older firemen and auxiliary members who built and worked so hard for years and years to get the Amissville Fire Department off the ground are not respected and recognized. It’s a shame!! From now on I hope you will get the true fads about the fire department instead of assuming or listening to ones wfco don’t know what they are talking about. j J I don’t think the last two years had the best parade or carnival 'as was reported. The parades were when there were so many majorette groups that Mr. Conard’s field wouldn’t hold them and when it took 2-3 hours to judge them later on the carnival ground. The carnivals were when everyone worked together apd had respect for one another; when every inch of land around the firehouse and carnival ground had a oar parked on it; and the firemen rjot only made money, they were able'tb give away a new automobile. i Amissville will never again hafve a carnival or parade like the older firemen and auxiliary had.

20 YEARS AGO July 31,1969 July rainfall through Wednesday morning totaled 7.60 inches, according to the official weather gauge in Washington, Va. This is the most rainfall for that month since 1959 at which time there was 7.25 inches. In 1956 July rainfall totaled 12.15 inches. According to the Highway Department, no serious road damage has been done by the severe storms; only a few small washouts have occurred. C.J. Miller, Jr. of Washington was elected president of Rappahannock National Bank Tuesday at a meeting of the directors. He has been associated with this bank since 1925, was executive vice president and has served as cashier for the past 14 years. He fills the vacancy left by the recent death of Robert W. Miller of Woodville. Thomas Williams of Flint Hill was named vice president and George Miller of Woodville was named to the board of directors at Tuesday’s called meeting. 15 YEARS AGO July 25, 1974 Supervisor Chairman Pete Luke says an informal gettogether has precluded the immediate need for a formal joint session with the School Board over implementation of a kindergarten system, but that he still thinks the School Board should have been more emphatic in expressing its reservations about the system. Luke and Supervi'-*>r J.R. Latham met with School Board members and some school administrators shortly after the July meeting of the Supervisors, at which Luke and others had expressed dismay over a letter sent to the State School Board. The letter said the Rappahannpck School Board had “approved” implementation of a fullday kindergarten system by September 1 of 1976. What upset the Supervisors was their belief , that the School Board did not “approve” the program, but had merely “accepted” it. ■ The Rappahannock Girls Softball team upset the topranking Front Royal team in a hard-hitting, close game last Friday. The final score favored Rappahannock 28-27 over the Warren Quality Team. Two homers were belted by the locals — one by Theresa Clanagan in the second inning and the other by Dorothy Foster in the third. ' Hitting triples were Carolyn Dodson and Patricia Pendleton. ‘ Call 675-3349 to place your ad 10YEARSAGO July 26, 1979 Several changes have been made recently in the office of the Rappahannock County Department of Welfare. After resignations and in-office position changes, two new employees have assumed duties here. Sylvia Kreitler has accepted the position of social worker. The larger part of her work will be in the field of family and children’s services. Marie Davis has assumed the position of secretary to the Welfare Department. This position was left vacant after inoffice changes came about when eligibility technician Juanita Miko resigned. The Rappahannock Farmers Market now has a complete line of fresh fruits and vegetables available. Com and tomatoes are the latest to appear, with blackberries and peaches still plentiful. Led by vice-president Ellen Taylor of the Virginia Council of Senior Citizens, delgates of Urbanettes of Arlington County, patronized the market last Saturday. They were well pleased, will return and bring others. 5 YEARS AGO July 26, 1984 Truman J. Keesey of Washington is scheduled to meet July 26 in Washington, D.C. with members of a presidential committee on aging. Mr. Keesey will join two other Northern Virginians at the meeting: Mrs. Jane Gallaway of Rixeyville, who is president of the Advisory Council to the Area Agency on Aging; and Mrs. Alice Mann, a senior citizen from Warrenton. Letters to the editor Larger questions raised To the editor: The community’s debate over the ARB’s decision on the proposed addition to the jail raised a number of issues that deserve serious consideration, but which were not relevant to the issue addressed by the ARB. That issue, the only issue before the ARB, was, in effect, whether the proposed addition was consistent with the preservation of one of the town’s historic buildings, which in turn, according to John Wells, architectural historian with the State Division of Historic Landmarks, is “part of the courthouse complex-the seat of the county’s identity.” The ARB was created by the Town Council to preside over issues of this sort. It had the authority to act as it did, and there was no showing, either by Council members or by the public, that was wrong in its judgement. On the issue that was before them, the ARB should have been upheld, or, if its decision was in error, the Council should have said so and pointed out its reasons so that the ARB could act on future applications in a manner consistent wdth the Council’s instructions. Alternatively, if the Council thought the Artts s decision was correct but tne result reached was not in the best interests of the county for economic or other reasons, it should have exempted government buildings from the jurisdiction of the ARB. During the community’s debate on the addition to the jail, however, many arguments were made that confused the issue. Whether we want to live in a “museum town” is irrelevant here, because it goes to the question whether the town should have an ARB and concern itself with historic preservaton at all. Whether the sheriff needs a new office, whether the architecture of the proposed addition is pleasing, whether the w'hether the new jail cells would enable Rappahannnock to become the jail center of the Northern Piedmont and make lots of money, whether there are many instances of historic depredations in the town already-all of these considerations are extraneous to the case that was before the ARB.

Perhaps the Council would do well to address that issue in the near future, so that, if the decision is made to continue the effort, the ARB can be given clearer marching orders. Historic preservation is not an exact science. Rather, it involves a process of developing standards and procedures that may be applied consistently to all. The principal thrust of historic preservation is similar to the charge given to the medical profession: “do no harm.” While simple in statement, this rule is often difficult in application. It makes no difference whether the standards are expressed in terms of “should” or “ought,” rather than “shall” or “must,” as argued by some during the debate. The guiding concern for the ARB should be to “do no harm” to the town’s historicity, and to apply this concern equally to all applicants. A basic principle is inherent in this debate: are we to have a rule of law that is the same for everyone, or shall we carve out exceptions to the law as we apply it, depending on the status and economic power of the individual concerned. If we follow' the latter course, we raise the possibility of a successful legal challenge to our governmental processes, and we violate a fundamental principle of government that was established bv Magna Cartain 1215. LEE BIRD Washington Exception to Mr. LeKander To the editor: In response to last week’s letter tfiat started by, “Oh Gosh.” Mr. LeKander, no disrespect, but sir I strongly disagree with your viewpoints. After reading your letters, the first thing that came to my mind is that marijuana is an illegal substance, is it not? And wre have directed our law enforcement officials to enforce the laws, have we not? And your suggestion to Trooper Newiin as to where his job would be best justified, he is only one person and therefore can only be in one place at a time, and wherever he is at 6 a.m., I’m sure he's needed there. It’s so easy to give guidelines, but try to follow them yourself, it’s not as easy as it appears. A couple of years ago the helicopter crew made a find also. The person responsible was charged, found guilty and jailed to serve his sentence. Mr. Blanchard is ho exception. If at 6 a.m. Mr. Blanchard works his garden maybe that’s the problem, or was. To Trooper Newlin and Sheriff Woodward and the Sheriffs Department, you are all doing a good job and your service is appreciated.

Day REALTOR — IF YOU CAN’T BUY THE MORTGAGE There’s no such thing as a free lunch in the Field of finance. Since homes are universally bought on credit, the mortgage bill comes due once a month. If hard luck befalls you due to illness or a job layoff and you can’t come up with your monthly payment, what happens? You’ll have to apy your bank a penalty—typically 5% of the amount overdue. If you know you’re goint to miss a payment, take a hard look at your financial situation. Are your problems temporary (an unexpected home repair bill or brief job layoff)9 I so, get in ‘touch with the bank and explain your situation. Many banks are willing to work out a temporary solution, such as suspending a mortgage payment or two. However, if it appears that there is no way you can resume payments, the best answer may be to sell your house as quickly as possible—before the bank forecloses. Most houses are worth more than the remaining mortgage. It is foolish to risk losing this equity through indecisiveness.

Local 4-H youth learn, play in the Great Outdoors By TOMMY WILLIAMS Extension Agent, Agriculture King George, Caroline, Madison and Rappahannock counties are involved in a pilot project sponsored by the Extension Service to introduce teenagers to the Great Outdoors. Field trips involving hiking, canoeing and siding will be used to instruct 4-Hers on the impact of pollution on our environment. The second outing of the series was held on July 7, 8 and 9 in Rappahannock and Madison counties. Dr. Pat Trotter is the Extension specialist from Virginia Tech in Blacksburg who helped plan the outings and coordinate the counties involved. Karen Firehock from the Issac Walton League instructed the group about how to determine the quality of water in the mountain creeks by counting the numbers and types of insects in the streams. Kevin Racer, Madison County’s gypsy moth coordinator, talked to us about the life cycle of the destructive moth and its impact on the forest ecology of the Appalachian area. During the weekend we took two hikes, one up and down White Oak Canyon and the other up and down Old Rag Mountain. Particpants from King George County were Cathy Delong, Cathy Coats, Paula Van Alstine and Extension Agent Mary McFerren. Madison County wras represented by Ryan Lillard and Extension Agent Brad Jarvis, along with Mr. Racer. From Caroline County the group included Susan Kil, Edith West and Steve Hopkins, Extension agent. And from nearer to home, Rappahannock County participated with the largest contingent, including Holly Moffett, Alex Smith, Alice Reeve, Tim Mahoney, Greg Williams, Melissa Pagano, Justin Ferfence, Janice Moffett and Extension j\gent Tommy Williams. The Extension Office extends special thanks to Mrs. Moffett for supplying pillows, to Janet Smoot for lending her tent, to Marsha Thompson for the use of her stove £nd to the Sheriffs Department for the loan of its van, which made transportation much easier. And finally, the Extension Office would like to remind Justin Ferrence, Tim Mahoney and Alex Smith that it is not nice to hide the Extension Agent’s canteen. Following are some thoughts from the Rappahannock 4-Hers who participated in the weekend exploration. I . Photos by Tommy Williams for the Rappahannock News THE OUTDOOR ADVENTURE group poses for a group portrait during the weekend hike. A new camping experience I don’t think hiking 13 miles through rock covered, bug and gypsy moth infested trails is a relaxing way to spend a weekend - but it sure was fun! I got a chance to do some things that I never experienced before. The 4-H Adventure Club and I climbed White Oak Canyon and Old Rag Mountain for two full days (although it seemed like five with the heat and strenuous climbing). We stopped and swam at a beautiful waterfall while on our way through White Oak Canyon. It seemed too good to be true when we finally hit the cold water! We camped out in our tents on what they said was “flat land" but I don’t think waking up to find yourself and everyone else at the very bottom of the tent shows pitching on flat land. We even cooked and made hobo dinners and biscuits over the fire. We also screened a stream to find out its quality with the "Save Our Streams” Program Survey. We found the quality to be fair. I sure will be glad if this pilot program turns out to be available to 4-Hers throughout the state. I enjoyed it alot! -- Holly Moffett Camping out “Camping out,” an expression that causes an endless flurry of sylvan images to flit about inside one’s cranium. But, although I had “camped out” an innumerable amount of times before, it had never been quite like the time I shared with fellow 4-Hers at the foot of Old Rag Mountain on July 8 and 9. Well, let me start (where else?) at the beginning. As I left I checked everything off in my check-list-book. I call it a book because I brought a lot - a lot, and then some more, and some things of which I am not exactly certain what their purposes were. Anyway, eventually we arrived at the campsite where “flat land” could not be located with a bulldozer. We were then told that with the wonderful assistance of our “positive attitudes” tent sites could be found all around (and lucky enough our 30 degree incline was as flat and level as the Dead Sea. We soon learned to make use of our “positive attitudes” whenever a disgruntling situation would occur, and turn it about into an enjoyable moment (about the only things my tent residents’ positive attitudes would not remedy were the results of having slept with all one’s body weight on one’s forehead at the bottom two feet of the tent). On to the hike. I had never hiked a Mountain before, and truthfully I had a great time with Old Rag Mountain. Getting to know all my camp-mates individually, and the sense of accomplishment one gets from maintaining a pace up the mountain until you reach the peak is unbeatable. It might parallel winning a Most Valuable Player award in a sport at school, because when you have done it you know you have earned it, and you’ve done it on your own. The whole hike and the stay at camp was made especially enjoyable because everyone was constantly in a good mood, and this kept our morale really going. There were no clans, no cliques, no society or monetary dividers, just good people who were encouraging on the trail and warm and friendly at the camp site. We often made our own meals (hobo dinners and homemade biscuits) and were known to break into song without provocation. I think we all learned a lot, to say the least, and I can’t think of anyone who did not have a great time. It is an experience I will not soon forget —hopefully not ever. -- Alex Smith Seeing the moths firsthand On the weekend of July 7-9 the teen club from Rappahannock, joined by Mrs. Moffett and Mr. Williams, went camping. On this trip we were able to learn more about the four stages that the gypsy moth undergoes before it completes its life cycle. We were also able to see firsthand the damage that the gypsy moth has done to the forest. Another part of the trip was spent learning about water, specifically mountain streams: We w-ent into the stream at two different locations and took samples of the life forms in the w’ater. The samples proved that the life forms were suffering and lacking in numbers due to pollution. The group also learned about a project called “Adopt a Stream or River.” In this project a person signs up to take care of a section of water (in a river or stream) and they would take care of the water testing and keep a record of the test results. --Greg Williams A weekend of wonders Earlier this year the 4-H clubs from various counties joined together for a hike up Old Rag Mountain one day and one night by the campfire. When I heard I could have gone but missed it I was disappointed, but excited to hear that a whole weekend of hiking was in the future of the 4-H clubs. I signed up right away, ignoring the fact that I had never been hiking before in any way, shape or form. After numerous letters from Mr. Williams keeping me updated not only on what to expect from the hiking trip and what to bring, but also on the other 4-H activities, thfe ' big weekend came. Now the hike itself got underway See ADVENTURE, p. 9 1 y v-% EXPLORING WILDLIFE, Greg Williams learns to use all of his senses during a ‘ ‘tree-hugging’ ’ exercise. Adventure Continued from page 8 Friday evening when we set up our tents (I must say with a bit of difficulty for some of us) and then sat v around the campfire devouring hobo dinners and sharing conversation and songs. Our group quickly became close after a game which left us with names like Pat Pizza and Susan Something. The following day began exceptionally early (for me 6 a.m. just doesn’t do well for a day of good humor) but once the hike began the fun couldn’t have lasted long enough. We not only did Old Rag Mountain during our weekend expedition, but we also enjoyed the wonders of White Oak Canyon. We admired many beautiful sights and even had a chance to experience a natural water slide. Thanks to Karen, our personal water guide, we met tiny creatures in the streams and learned ways to conserve and protect our own waterways. Among the other highlights were adopting trees, making smores and learning of the many forms of destruction caused by the now wellknown gypsy moth. Overall the trip was a collaboration of new sights, exciting experiences, and most importantly longlasting friendships. — Melissa Pagano A 4-H adventure As we drove to the campsite, I ASCENDING OLD RAG’S CHIMNEY are, from bottom, Madison Extension Agent Brad Jarvis, Alex Smith, Caroline Extension Agent Steve Hopkins, Janice Moffett and Holly Moffett. had never felt more relieved in all my life. All 23 of us had packed into a white van on Saturday moring to begin a long but fairly easy hike - compared with Sunday’s adventure. Saturday began early in the morning as we woke up to the smiling faces of our adult leaders (well, sort of smiling). After our backpacks were crammed full of towels, lunches, fruit, water and other “necessities” we were crammed into the van for a 11/2 hour ride to the top of the trail. “White Oak Canyon Trail” we read as Pat prepared us for the trail ahead. We took a picture, established “trail etiquette” and began our hike. The trail sights were spectacular. We adopted a tree and swam in what felt like Antarctic imported water. The only way to describe Sunday’s hike is long, steep, hard and rewarding. On this hike we learned things that are useful not only as 4-H teen counselors but as citizens and members of society. We learned that we can accomplish anything if we put our minds to it, that by working as a team we can make hobo dinners, campfires and rugged hikes easier and fun. -- Alice Reeve Caribbean Festival in Warrenton Old Town Warrenton will be transformed into an exotic Caribbean island of pulsating music, fun and prizes on Saturday, July 29, when “Tropical Madness” permeates the streets, shops, residents, and merchants here. From noon until 9 p.m., the combined efforts and enthusiasm of The Partnership for Warrenton, the Old Town Association and Bluemont Concert Series will unite to produce this special, w'arm-weather event for children and adults alike, according to Michael Welton, a spokesman for the event.

Silent gratitude isn’t very much use to anyone. G. B. Stern The great ideas at Mitery Greens just got bigga; w* fe just increased the living space in each of the fifteen beautiful homes left in Mulberry Greens by an average of 300 square feet. But we feel that the true measure of a home can’t be calculated by the tale of the tape. What makes the homes in Mulberry Greens so unique are our great ideas. Make the details matter. Ornamental brickwork, decorative moldings, stair rails that borrow from Chippendale and lighting fixtures that recall Williamsburg, single-level living, and two-story designs with first-floor master suites. These are just a few of the design details that elevate Mulberry Greens from the superb to the sublime. Make the right material choices. Cedar shake roofs, M&W™ or Pella™ windows, and General Shale™ brick. These are some of the top-quality materials used in all Mulberry Greens homes. Our high standards make your home an exceptional value in today’s real estate market. Make sure the grass really is greener... .. .but don’t spend all your free time mowing it. Instead of giving you acres of lawn, we thought it best to ;i leave extensive greenskeeping to the professionals at the neighboring Culpeper Country Club golf course. But just . because your property is low-maintenance doesn’t mean it can’t have high impact. We carefully landscape each homesite to give you optimum privacy, selecting trees, shrubbery, and flowers that will make life at Mulberry Greens beautiful every season of the year. Make in-town living outstanding. In-town addresses used to come with leaky roofs, i -ancient plumbing, and creaky floorboards. Now, you ' >don’t have to sacrifice a no-hassle lifestyle for a prime downtown location. Mulberry Greens puts you at the ! heart of downtown Culpeper, but we’ve added a few more conveniences like plenty of parking with private /• driveways and garages. Best of all, it’s brand new. You’ll discover that the homes are bigger and the ideas are better at Mulberry Greens.

Fresh corn a magic word By SANDRA RICHARDSON Fresh is the magic word associated with corn in the summertime. There’s nothing more delicious than corn that is rushed from garden to table. Thomas Jefferson is credited with saying, “fresh-picked ears of corn should be run from garden row to the kettle boiling for them before the shock of being cooked has had a chance to make them nervous or revengefully tough.” Com is native to the Western Hemisphere known to botanists as the tall grass, zea mays, also called maize. It is believed to have origi nated in Mexico. The word “maize” comes from the Indian word “making”. America’s settlers learned how to grow it from the Indians for whom it was a vital crop. To distinguish the new grain from what they had brought with them from the “old country,” the colonists called it “Indian com” and eventually, just “com.” In its’ early years, corn’s usefulness was not limited to the kernels. The Periwians obtained sugar from its stalks; the Mexicans made a honey-like substance, and the tropical natives made a kind of beer or A wine. For Americans it was a staple, eaten by some three times a day, mostly as bread which they used as a sop for gravy and molasses. Hominy remains an important food in the South, where it is prepared by soaking dried corn in lye to remove the hulls and then boiling the kernels in water. Hominy is not to be confused with hominy grits, or just plain grits, as they are often called. These are grains of hominy, ground fine, cooked in water and eaten as a breakfast food. In the Southeast it is estimated that each person consumes more than 4 pounds annually. Grits are also baked and combined in casseroles. To roast corn turn back the husks and remove the silk. Brush kernels with melted butter or margarine and sprinkle with unsalted water. Pull husks back over corn and twist at top to serve. Place com around the edges of hot coals and turn ears frequently with tongs, cooking about 20 mins. Or, husks and silk can be completely removed and ears wrapped in heavy foil. Cook ears over medium hot coals for 5 to 7 mins., turning frequently. Don’t stop with cooking com on the cob or com salad for with the harvest of fresh com comes a great variety of other dishes.

Rappahannock Journal Farmers cautioned about transient laborers Farmers who hire labor are just like others in business, they have to verify that the employees can legally work. The Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 makes it illegal for you to knowingly hire or recruit a person not authorized to work in the United States. It also requires you to verify the employment status of every employee, whether citizen or alien, according to Virginia Extension spokesman Bland Franklin. A person who violates this rule could receive large fines or a jail sentence. You verify that the applicants can legally work by having them complete Employment Eligibility Form (Form 1-9), Mr. Franklin said. The applicants also have to present verifying documents, such as Social Security card, driver’s license or other legally acceptable document. The employer has to examine the documents, even if the applicants are well known. Workers who have been employed by you in the past don’t have to fill out an 1-9 for re-employment. Guardians may certify on an 1-9 that a minor is eligible to work. Even part-time and temporary workers, as well as family members, require verification. You must get the 1-9 completed within three business days after hiring an employee, or at the end of the first day if the job is for fewer than three days. The form must be kept for three days or for one year after the employee is terminated, whichever is longer. Qualified aliens list an alien registration number by the third check box of the 1-9. If the number is in the A-9 million series, the employer must also complete a form ESA-92 quarterly. The ESA-92 shows hours worked and tasks performed. This form helps officials decide how many migrant workers to admit to the country. The form can be obtained at The Rappahannock County Extension office, 675-3619. Contract labor doesn’t need to complete an 1-9. “Contract” means the workers furnish their own tools and supplies and complete a job unsupervised. Be sure not to discriminate against eligible noncitizens or qualified local workers when advertising for help or when hiring, Mr. Franklin added. Garden Club given Master Judge's critique Members of the Rappahannock County Garden Club benefitted from a critique of their flower arrangements at their meeting on July 10 at the Washington Fire Hall. Mrs. Aileen Eastham, Master Judge of the Valley Garden Club in Front Royal judged more than two dozen arrangements and much was learned form her comments. A schedule of .programs for the coming year was read and new members and guests were welcomed. The Garden Club has adopted approximately a two mile adopt-a-highway control program. The first work day for this project is set for Oct 4. The horticulture theme presented at the meeting was zinnias, marigolds and petunias. Judges awarded blue ribbons to Dot Mank, Eve Filipy, Harriet Stokes and Vivi Liverman. 'I Tired of Juggling traffic all morning?

Chief Brown said, this time provided by Jerry Williams and Mystic Sounds. Two shows will run again from 8-9 p.m. and from 10-11 p.m. There is no admission charge for any of the musical entertainment. On Saturday afternoon the department’s fourth annual horseshoe tournament will be held at the carnival grounds. Always a favorite, in the past the tournament has drawn horseshoe-pitching experts from across Rappahannock County as well as the surrounding areas. On Saturday evening the carnival will conclude with the drawing for the grand prize and the crowning of the department’s Honorary Fire Chief. Those events will take place around midnight, Chief Brown said. As always, there will be plenty of food available, including hamburgers, hot dogs and french fries served by the department’s Ladies Auxiliary. The fire department also has a number of game stands, as well as a dunking tank. Rumor has it. Chief Brown said, that fire department member and Chairman of the Board of Supervisors Hubert Gilkey has agreed to take a turn in the dunking tank. There may be other surprise volunteers on the tank as well, he added. “W'e hope that the community will come up to the Gap and enjoy an evening of family entertainment,” Chief Brown said. “And remember, all the proceeds from the carnival benefit the Chester Gap Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad." Flint Hill’s turn next week The Flint Hill Volunteer Fire Department, whose carnival traditionally ends the summer season, will hold its carnival next week, from Wednesday, Aug. 2 through Saturday, Aug. 5.

On Thursday evening the parade begins at 6:30, but the department suggests that spectators arrive early to get a good seat and pick up a box dinner, provided by the department’s Ladies Auxiliary. According to Moe Walker, the department also plans to invite several members of the county’s Board of Supervisors to participate at the department’s dunking tank. “Did you ever feel like you wanted to throw your supervisor into a well? he asked. We have the next best thing.” Washington plans evening out In a celebration with a double purpose, the Town of Washington will observe the 240th anniversary of the town’s establishment on Aug. 19. Besides the birthday celebration, the event is also planned as a fundraiser for the town’s volunteer fire department, whose Independence Day fundraising was seriously hurt by the torrential rains which washed out the evening’s entertainment. In a cooperative effort, the fire department, the Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community, the town’s business council and the Town Council have decided to restage the evening’s entertainment as a birthday salute to the town. The event will be cehtered at the courthouse complex on Gay St. in Washington beginning at 5 p.m. There will be volleyball for the adults and others, and games for younger children and other activities for those not up to strenuous athletic endeavors). At 6 p.m. musical entertainment will begin with the bluegrass band New Liberty. The group was scheduled to perform on July 4th, but was rained out. At 8 p.m., more music will begin courtesy of the Cross Country band. In addition to the sports, games and music there will be food and drink aplenty. The department plans to have hamburgers, hot dogs, barbecue, roasted corn on the cob, beer, wine and soft drinks. “Bring your family and friends to help us celebrate our town’s 240th birthday,” said Chief Roger Roach. Stumps Continued from page 1 Phil Irwin said, “It’s not in my backyard, but I feel it’s one of the more serious threats to Rappahannock’s environment . . . It’s unfortunate we had a quarry there; we should built a fence around it and call it a shrine to improper land use. There is a lot of asbestos coming out of schools and government buildings. It would be attractive to bury it with other related items. Who is going to be at the gate to stop it?” Jean Lillard presented the planners with a petition signed by “30 voters who live around the rock quarry” opposing the application. After several other Flint Hill residents had spoken in opposition, Mr. McCarthy said he would recommend that the hearing be continued until October to give Mr. Frazier time to submit additional information. Mr. Frazier said he was concerned that the state might force the quarry to reopen. He said the rock taken from the quarry was processed to provide the top coat for Interstate 81. “It was one of two quarries in the state with that type of rock. The state is keeping an eye on this thing,” he said. Mrs. Ralph said, “If the state is going to do that they’d have to take a lot of Route 522; they’d have to take my house and three others. All of us CUV, 1,11C* L, U1CJ UUI1 L UU that.” Mr. McCarthy again recommended that the hearing be continued. He said the deficiencies in the site plan could easily be remedied, but that then the plans would have to be submitted to the highway department. The county administrator ticked off the list of required information, including engineering studies to show that there is suitable soil to cover over what is deposited on at least a weekly basis. There would have to be tests done on the permeability of the rock in the quarry and an analysis of the ground water conditions to determine if the quarry was a discharge or recharge area. Then Mr. Frazier would have to show that he could satisfy all the requirements of the Department of Waste Management for a debris landfill. He said these requirements were “a little less” than those for a sanitary landfill. “Our information is not adequate now for a decision,” he added. “I have a different feeling,” Wakefield District representative Werner Krebser said. He estimated that it would cost Mr. Frazier $30,000 “to prepare a package like this. The county has sufficient information. We can turn down the application now.” Dr. Krebser noted that the most MODULAR CONCEPTS OF VA^LTD. in Modular Home Construction summer del araucc 1/3 to 1/2 OFF Oak Springs Shopping Center Wc torrenton Festival at Bull Run Manassas Coming Soon, Culpeper!! In the Dominion Square Shopping Cen recent traffic count on Route 647 showed 349 vehicles in 18 hours, “and that report does not show the blind hill and curves on that road,” he added. He said that a landfill at that site was not compatible with the “village concept. The village concept is crucial for the Comprehensive Plan to stand on its feet . . . We’re not protecting our natural resounces there. Why should we continue this? It’s like a charade we’re putting on. I can’t vote for it. “I lived here when they were blasting in the quarry,” Dr. Krebser continued. “You’d see huge clouds of dust going up when the blasting was going on, and the village is much more dense than it was then. We ought to recommend to the Board of Supervisors denial based on the Comprehensive Plan and not put Mr. Frazier through all these expenses.” Hampton District representative John Clark Jr. asked Mr. Frazier, “Are you willing to do these tests and come back at a later date?” “As far as I’m concerned, we can drop the whole matter,” Mr. Frazier said. “I’d caution you people that somebody’s going to fill that hole one of these days. You should do it when you. can get something as clean as stumps, but if there is this much opposition, just forget it. ” Dr. Krebser suggested that Mr. Frazier consider putting a garden in the quarry like one in western Can “There’s a lot of use that could be made of it,” Mr. Frazier said. “It would make a cracker-jack jail or underground shopping mall.” The planners next considered the Agricultural Advisory Committee. Mr. McCarthy said that Miriam Harris and Gerald Hawkins had expressed interest in serving on it. Mike Massie said Gordon Thornhill was also interested in being on the committee if its meetings were at. night. Planning Commission Chairman Allen Stokes suggested William Dietel, who already serves on a state agricultural committee and might make a good person to serve on the county’s committee. Mr. McCarthy said he would set up a committee meeting with a notice in the paper that invited anyone interested to attend and serve on the committee. Mr. McCarthy reported that the application for a grant to study substandard housing had been submitted to the state on time, and the county would know by early fall whether the planning money would be available. The Planners voted to recommend that the Board of Supervisors approve the agreement worked out with members of the town planning commission on lots split by the town boundary. Mr. McCarthy said no more than six new lots could be created by this agreement. Mr. McCarthy said that representatives of the Rappahannock Electric Cooperative would attend the Planning Commission’s August meeting to request that the zoning ordinance be amended to allow 40 rather than 25-foot right-of-ways for power lines. He said if the planners wanted to recommend this change it could be advertised for hearing in September along with changes that would allow his office to approve applications for temporary trailor permits administratively rather than referring them to the Board of Zoning Appeals. : ADVERTISING ; DEADLINES ■ * < ; LOCAL DISPLAY * ADVERTISING . ► Rappahannock News Ads, * Tuesday, 12 noon , * Combo Ads “ (one or more papers) , * Monday, 3 p.m. < * Real Estate Combo Ads < [ Friday, 4 p.m. CLASSIFIED ; ADVERTISING < , Rappahannock News 4 „ Tuesday, 12 noon 4 | Horse & Farm * ► Monday, 12 noon * ^ < ,Combo Classified Display* ► Monday, 3 p.m. 4 , Combo Word Ads * ► Monday, 5 p.m. 4 ‘ A A ^

Dobrovir Continued from page 1 area she was responsible for, she located target circles wherever four two-kilometer quadrants intersected. The target circles are 600 meters in diameter. This resulted in 37 target circles for her portion of the study. Then using the maps and a compass, Mrs. Dobrovir attempted to locate a suitable place within each target circle for placing a gypsy moth trap. These traps, resembling bright green one-half gallon milk cartons, contain a pheromone (something like a scent which the female moths, which don’t fly, use to attract the male moths, which do) and a strip of insecticide. The male moths are attracted to the traps, fly in, can’t get out, are killed by the insecticide, and drop to the bottom of the traps. Scrambling over fences, crossing fields and climbing up banks, she was able to locate a suitable location in 36 of the 37 target circles. “I couldn’t get into one site,” she said. In most places she was able to locate the owner and get permission. Sometimes the trap was placed without permission, but it was clearly labelled giving her name and identifying its purpose. “People were very interested; I had no resistance,” she said. The traps are placed on the north side of trees which have been targets of gypsy moths. inow tnat tne traps nave neen placed, Mrs. Dobrovir’s job is to visit them periodically to check on the number of male moths that have been captured. On a recent visit to five of the sites, she started by traveling south on Route 231 from her home near Sperryville. As she stopped her truck at the beginning of a driveway leading to her first site, she said that the job description hadn’t included the need for access to a four-wheel drive vehicle, but she had found it necessary. After adjusting the hubs on the front wheels of the truck and starting off again, she commented, “I’ve gotten much better at using four-wheel drive since taking this job.” At the end of the driveway the first trap was located on one of a clump of black walnuts in the yard of a nearby house. Only a few leaves clung to the branches of these trees. The literature she was given indicated that gypsy moths aren’t attracted to walnuts, she said, but the caterpillars had thoroughly worked over these trees. Four children tumbled out of the house to help her check the trap. She took out a ruler and measured the depth of the pile of male moths in the bottom of the trap, three centimeters, a little more than one inch. She showed the children the moths collected in “their” trap. “Ugh," they agreed. One child held a plastic bag open while she dumped the moths into it. Some of the moths were clumped together and stuck in the bottom of the trap. She poked the ruler around in the trap, loosening them, and dumped them in too. “I’ll see you again in about two weeks,” she told the children as she prepared to leave. Mrs. Dobrovir said that if there were six centimeters or more of moths in the trap, she would only record their depth, but for anything less, she had to hand count them. “That’s the most onerous part of this job,” she said. “The wings tend to fall off; I just count the fuselages.”. The plastic bag was sealed, labelled S-45-1 to indicate the site from which the moths had been collected, and tucked into a shopping bag behind the truck seat. The second site of the day was near Piedmont Church on Route 681; another three centimeters worth of moths were collected here. Then on to a site further up the road where a small child watched through a screen door as she crossed the road, climbed a bank, entered the woods, and collected another five centimeters worth of moths. At the fourth site, on up Boot Hollow, dogs danced around her feet as she passed a house where no one seemed to be home. “Dogs haven’t been as much of a problem as I thought they would be,” she said. “There is one dog I have to watch out for, and there are three sites where I put on gaiters before going in because I’m concerned about snakes.” The trap was attached to an old abandoned apple tree that was growing new leaves. Mrs. Dobrovir expressed some concern about the oak trees in the Shenandoah National Park which are now showing the pale green of new leaves. “It takes a lot out of a tree to grow new leaves,” she said. She wasn’t sure that the trees would get enough from the new leaves in the time left this summer to make up for the energy used producing them. i ne DarK oi tne old apple tree was a demonstration project on the life cycle of the gypsy moth. Egg masses were tucked into its crevices. Pupae, from which both male and female moths had hatched, hung from it, and there were even some caterpillars attached, shrunken, dead now, the victims of a naturally occurring virus named NPV which produces “wilt disease”. After she collected another 4.5 centimeters worth of dead male moths, she headed back towards the truck. A very alive male moth found her and flew around her head, apparently attracted by the pheromone she had picked up while handling the traps. “The guys in the store (the F T Valley Grocery) tease me about spreading gypsy moths,” she laughed. She said she had tried to explain that she couldn’t spread the gypsy moth problem by having male moths follow her into the store, only by leading them to female moths, but those moths would be where the caterpillars had already been. The fifth and final stop of the morning was on Route 621 between Route 231 and Woodville, in the woods near an orchard. At that site a moth flew out as she opened the trap. “An escapee,” she said. She collected another five centimeters wrorth of clumped-up male moths, and headed home, planning to check another seven sites in the afternoon LOOKING FOR PEACE AND QUIET? Take a look at this log home nestled in the mountains. Located in Blue Ridge Mountain Estates (Chester Gap) on a Vi acre wooded lot. 2 bedroom, 1 Vi bath, walk-out basement, large living room, kitchen, dining room. For more information call (703) 635-6189. and spend the evening counting “fuselages.” Once the male moths quit flying, which Mrs. Dobrovir thinks will be in a very few weeks, the next step will be counting a sampling of egg masses. She will have to take further training for that and may have help. She hopes to be finished with that before hunting season begins, since she doesn’t want to be wandering around in the woods during the hunting season. Then once the data from these studies is fed into computers at Virginia Tech, the federal government will decide what to do about the problem. Mrs. Dobrovir believes that the data will show the gypsy moth problem to be severe enough to warrant the federal government providing free spraying for all of the county in the project area. In fact, she said the policy now is that the land will be sprayed, unless the landowner specifically requests that it not be. In the rest of the county, she said spraying may be available on a costshare basis. Land in the Shenandoah National Park will not be sprayed except in those areas that attract the most tourists. The Park land can serve as a control for the study, she explained. Two sprays are being recommended for gypsy moth caterpillars, Mrs. Dobrovir said. Dimilin inhibits their growth by interfering with the production of chitin, the main component of the caterpillar’s exoskeleton. As the caterpillar grows, it moults, and must grow a new exoskeleton each time. Dimilin is quite effective, but is not recommended for spraying over ponds or streams, because it may affect other insects fish feed on. ine otner spray being recommended is Bt (Bacillus thuringieases), a bacteria which paralyzes the intestinal system of caterpillars. It is less effective but more specific, Mrs. Dobrovir said. The federal government is also involved in breeding and releasing a parasitic wasp, which cannot cope with large infestations, but can help keep numbers of caterpillars lower than they would otherwise be. A species specific virus, tradenamed "Gypchek,” has been developed by U.S. Forest Service scientists. Although it is still under study and is not available, for widespread use, it apparently blocks the moths' reproductive system, leaving the females unable to produce the eggs from which the next season’s caterpillars hatch. The scientists experimenting with the virus predict that a commercially available product is at least two years away. Whatever the outcome of Rappahannock’s battle with the gypsy moth, Mary Dobrovir and the citizens of Rappahannock will know a lot more about the pest because of the federal study. Resign Continued from page 1 nance is worth the loss of personal freedom. It saddens me greatly that bona fide preservation of historic buildings is not a priority with a majority of you," she concluded. Her resignation was effective immediately, said the letter, dated July 18. At the July meeting of the ARB, which was held Monday, July 24 after being postponed from last Thursday’s regular date, the two remaining members, Robert Parrish and Evelyn Willis, reacted to Mrs. Miller’s resignation. “I guess I can understand her reason," Mr. Parrish said. He voted with Mrs. Miller in the majority to deny the county’s original application for a certificate of appropriateness. It was the appeal of that denial that led to the council’s approval and then to Mrs. Miller’s resignation. “She feels that the guidelines were disregarded," Mr. Parrish continued. “She feels strongly that we need guidelines which should be applied across the board." Mrs. Willis, who voted to approve the application both as a member of the ARB and as a member of the council, called Mrs. Miller’s reaction “inaccurate.” The council wants to have an ARB, she said, but “one of the reasons they voted to approve is that they think the ARB has not been as strict in the past. The ARB has not been a strict governing body.” Murder Continued from page 3 tigation, according to Chief Deputy R.R. Breeden of the Culpeper Sheriffs Department. "Their assistance and cooperation has been greatly appreciated,” Investigator Kennedy added. Investigator Kennedy declined to provide additional details about the crime. "As an active case still under investigation, we’ve got to be very careful about what we release,” he explained. He said that the murder has been made eligible for the Crimesolvers program, which entitles anyone who provides information leading to the arrest and indictment of the perpetrator to a $1,000 reward.

Lie. *980 GORDON CASH In other words, Mrs. Willis continued, for the council to deny the application would mean that it had applied stricter standards to the county’s application than to other applicants. She specifically cited C.E. “Skippy” Giles application to remodel the former Washington Cash Store. The ARB allowed him to remove the store’s original double doors, replacing them with a modem single door. If the doors had not been removed the handicapped ramp could not have been built. But, she added, a strict interpretation of the ordinance would have meant the original doors had to stay, even at the expense of his plans. Mrs. Willis said she hopes that the members of the ARB can n^eet with the council for a “round table discussion to give us direction.” She suggested that the ARB should elect a new chairman each year, and that each member should take a turn at the post. And, “if we have guidelines and standards we should have a (public) hearing. I’m not comfortable with people not knowing -- let alone the applicants.” Mayor Dean Morehouse called Mrs. Miller’s letter “a totally inaccurate accounting of what council was trying to do . . . We have supported the ARB in the past — we went to court for them and sued over the fence.” Mrs. Miller’s statement, the mayor continued, “in theory is good. But this is not Williamsburg or Wa: terford, it’s Washington. We live here. It’s not a restoration ordinance, and sometimes, with uses, there are overriding concerns.” Yes, Mr. Morehouse said, “it was the judgement of the council that the use was appropriate -- but it was not an overturning of the ARB, not a judgement that they were wrong.” The arguments for and against the addition, the mayor said, were in his opinion best summed up by Judge Rayner Snead when he said that the county “presented a strong case softly” and the ARB “presented a weak case strongly.” The debate, Mr. Morehouse continued, “was not destructive. It was instructive in making people realize how important the Historic District Ordinance is.” Mayor Morehouse said Mrs. Miller’s resignation was “unfortunate . . . If you are a public official you’ve got to realize that everybody is not always going to agree - you’re not going to win all the time.” The ARB approved the following applications for Certificates of Appropriateness: • The Town of Washington, for concrete and aggregate sidewalks to replace the present cracked and deteriorating ones.

The work will be done in stages by the Virginia Department of Transportation, with the first work done on the sections in the worst repair -specifically along Main St. from the Trinity Church parking lot to Jett St. The idea with the brick corners, Mrs. Willis explained, is to try and tie the rest of the sidewalks into the brick walk which now runs in front of the courthouse complex on Gay .St. • Charles Smoot, for a roof for an existing front porch on his home off North Main St. It will be of A-frame construction with asphalt shingles to match the rest of the house. • Grace Sims, for a trellis in front of the garage at her home on Blue Ridge Ave. Landscape architect Rosa Crocker said that no decision has been reached on whether to leave the wood unpainted or to paint it yellow to match the body of the garage or green to match the trim. The ARB approved all three options, since the colors had previously been approved for the house; Ms. Crocker told the board that Trinity Church had settled on a clematis vine for the screening on its board fencing around the air conditioning condensers. She also told the ARB the church is considering some possibilities, including veneer or shuttered doors, to screen the new doors at the back of the church facing Middle St. Gallery. The idea, she explained, is to give the effect of aged doors. Mr. Parrish said he liked the idea, “but you’ll have to be more specific. We have to see drawings.” • Bruce Wetteroth, for a sign at his Earth Gallery at the comer of Porter and Gay Streets. The post will be four inch square treated lumber, and the oval sign will have a pale yellow background and dark green lettering and trim. • Laurie Marshall and Rex Slack, to paint their home on Blue Ridge Ave. The body of the house will be fleece white, the trim pure white, and the shutters mallard green. Mrs. Willis said that complaints had been received about t\yo unapproved signs hanging in town in front of the Thrift Shop and Washington Video Rentals. Mrs. Willis and Mr. Parrish voted to request John McCarthy to send letters to both businesses informing them of the requirements of the Historic District Ordinance. “I feel certain that it is simply that the did not know'” about the ordinance, she said.
