Skies will be partly to mostly sunny, with daytime high temperatures in the 50s. Nighttime lows will drop into the Jow 30s. There is little chance of rain through the period. Fall leaf watch The brisk winds of the past several 'days have stripped many of the trees of ~ their leaves, but there remain isolated . pockets of brilliant color, which are beginning to fade as the temperatures “continue to drop. / Family transfer restrictions are relaxed By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer In adopting amendments to the county’s zoning ordinance Monday the Board of Supervisors reduced the restrictions on family subdivisions. The amendments as originally presented, and as they were recommended by the Planning Commission, would have required that a parcel of land be owned for five years before it would qualify for family subdivision. The supervisors reduced that to two years. The original amendments would also have required that a family member receiving a lot as a result of a family subdivision not sell it for two years. That amendment was eliminated altogether. ine supervisors were concerned that a family member who received such a parcel of land would not have been able to get a loan to build a house on the land if the bank could not force a sale in the event of a forclosure. Hampton District representative Mike Massie, who also represents the Board of Supervisors on the Planning Commission, was the only supervisor to vote against eliminating this amendment. “Now you can sell it as soon as you get it,” he commented. During the Planning Commission’s discussion of the amendments, Sharon Pierce mentioned that she had seen aqdvertisements for land for sale in Rappahannock pointing out that the land was eligible for family subdivisions. The planners felt that outside land speculators are taking advantage of the family subdivision provisions in the county’s zoning ordinance to subdivide in ways that would not ordinarily be allowed by the ordinance, and thus their recommendation for the restrictions. Mr. Massie pointed out that when the family subdivision provisions were originally considered they were supposed to apply to owners of lots since 1973, but the ordinance has been interpreted to apply to lots of record in 1973. Thus the family subdivision provisions were originally intended to provide a way for people already in the county in 1973 to provide lots for members of their families but are being used by people buying land in the county now. See FAMILY, p. A-8 '987' exchange now has '91V emergency line By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer C & P Telephone Co. subscribers in the “987” Sperryville exchange may now dial “911” to contact the Sheriffs Department dispatch office. The new development was announced by County Administrator John McCarthy during the Board of Supervisors’ meeting Monday afternoon. At last month’s meeting Mr. McCarthy reported that C & P wanted several thousand dollars to switch 911 emergency calls from “987” the exchange that were then being routed into the Culpeper Sheriffs office to Rappahannock’s dispatch office instead. The two counties had already agreed on the mechanics of the switching arrangement, and only C & P’s proposed charge stood in the way. Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke suggested that Mr. McCarthy write the State Corporation Commission about the difficulties with C & P. “I applaud C & P for coming around,” Mr. McCarthy said on Monday. “I’ve never seen anything work that See 911, p. A-8 Arundel Newspapers photo/Scott Ferrell ON TUESDAY EVENING, Congressman D. French Slaughter Jr. claims victory at a rally in his hometown of Culpeper. 3 Slaughter wins county, district Pledge bond amendments soundly defeated By LOU HATTER and MARY K. BLEWITT Arundel Newspapers Staff Writers Seventh District voters gave Congressman D. French Slaughter Jr. a vote of confidence Tuesday, returning the Republican incumbent to Washington to serve his fourth term. He soundly defeated his Democratic challenger, David M. Smith of Winchester, by 58 percent to 42 percent in the sprawling 23-county district, known as the state’s most conservative — once the power base of Sen. Harry F. Byrd Sr.’s Democratic machine. The gap narrowed in Rappahannock County, 53 percent to 47 percent in favor of Mr. Slaughter, but it still represented a con|prtable margin in this traditionally conservative county. Unofficially, the district-wide totals reported early Wednesday morning by the Associated Press were 81,200 for Mr. Slaughter and 58,675 for Mr. Smith. In Rappahannock County, the challenger carried the Sperryville and Flint Hill precincts, while Mr. Slaughter won in Hampton, Jackson, Stonewall-Hawthorn and Chester Gap. County-wide, Mr. Slaughter won by 125 votes, 966841. More than half the county’s 3,220 registered voters went to the polls. with an unofficial 56 percent participation. Participation was down from recent elections, when two-thirds voted last year in the state-wide elections. In 1988, a presidential election year, slightly more than 80 percent of the county’s voters cast ballots. The win surpassed Mr. Slaughter’s margin of victory in 1984, when he defeated Lewis Costello, a Northern Virginia lawyer, to earn his first term in the seat vacated by retiring GOP Congressman J. Kenneth Robinson. He ran unopposed in 1986 and 1988. Senator John W. Warner also easily won re-election to a third term as Virginia’s senior Senator. The Fauquier County resident faced only token opposition from Nancy Spannaus, a protege of political extremist Lyndon LaRouche. The Democrats did not field a candidate against the popular Republican, who lives on a farm near Middleburg. Senator Warner received 77 percent of the vote in Rappahannock County, while Ms. Spannaus, who ran as an independent, polled 22 percent. The bulk were write-in votes. A possible explanation for Ms. Spannaus's relatively strong showing was the lack of identification on the ballot of her affiliation with LaRouche, who is serving a jail sentence for tax evasion. In a telephone interview with the Fauquier Times-Democrat Tuesday evening, Sen. Warner said “I worked on the farm today, took my steers to the Fauquier Livestock Exchange and sold them for a good price.” He pledged that Virginia farmers will always have a voice as long as he is in office. The senator added that he does not feel that the squabbles over the budget, the mounting Federal deficit or the Persian Gulf situation had hurt Republican incumbents. “Across the nation people turn to leaders who have played important roles, politics played second.” Both Sen. Warner and Rep. Slaughter apparently overcame the hurdle that was predicted to endanger incumbent lawmakers around the country. Political analysts forecast that the budget snafu, which sent the federal government into a tailspin throughout October, would cause voters to oust incumbents. Tony Likins, Slaughter’s campaign manager, said that no such urge reached voters in the 7th District, in part because Slaughter did not take campaigning lightly. “We knew very early on that we could not sit and be complacent as an incumbent,” said Mr. Likins. He added, “You can’t say anti-incumbent without first establishing what See ELECTION, p.

All agreed that the problem occurs because the sewer line running from the house to the sewer authority’s tank is connected to drain lines underground in the yard which pick up groundwater in rainy weather. Mrs. Kiger told the supervisors Monday that she had had a problem when she first bought the house, but that it had not been a problem for some time and then started in again this fall and was especially severe after the heavy rains in October. Minutes from a WSA meeting in the spring of 1988 show that when she brought the problem to the authority’s attention then, she was told to put in a new line for sewage and “gray water” (the discharge from sinks, showers and household appliances) that would be separate from the old lines that pick up groundwater.

HMMMa String of burglaries under investigation The Rappahannock County Sheriffs Department is investigating a string of burglaries during the past month in the Flint Hill area, as well as two possibly related incidents in the SperryviUe area and two breakins in Castleton. According to RCSD Captain Ed Streapy, the burglar or burglars have struck both businesses in the town and a private home outside Flint Hill. The break-ins began the first week of October, when the Sperryville Exxon and Old Hollow Grocery, on U.S. 211 just east of SperryviUe, were both broken into sometime during the night of Oct. 4. In both cases, coin and currency were taken, Capt. Streapy said. At the Exxon, the burglars bjoke out a second floor window in the back of the building, while at the Old Hollow Grocery a back door was forced open. The next week, on Oct. 9, the Flint Hill Store was broken into by someone who entered though a second floor window at the back of the building. Again, the burglary happened sometime during the night, and again only coin and currency were taken. The burglars then turned their attention to a private home off Route 630, which was broken into sometime between Oct. 12 and Oct. 16. The thieves made off with a small safe containing a “substantial” amount of cash and jewelry, according to Capt. Streapy. During the last weekend in October, Wakefield School in Huntly was broken into by someone who forced a basement window at the side of the school. Once inside, a soda machine was opened using a key and the change box and coin was taken. A lock was also broken off a refrigera tor, but nothing was taken from that, Capt. Streapy said. On Halloween night, the burglars again struck in the town of Flint Hill. Aunt Jane’s Alterations was broken into and a small amount of coin was taken, Capt. Streapy said. Also that night, the Flint Hill Volunteer Fire Company was broken into by someone who forced a basement door at the side of the building. Once inside, the thieves used a forcible entry tool removed from one of the volunteers’ fire trucks to break into a soda machine and stole the coin box. In addition to the coin box and money, Capt. Streapy said, the burglars also stole the Haligan forcible entry tool. Capt. Streapy said that, “based on the investigation, suspects have been developed” in the string of burglaries. Capt. Streapy is also investigating two burglaries in the Castleton area. Sometime between Sept. 2 and Sept. 15, a home on Route 649 was entered through a door. The burglars took stereo equipment, power tools and other items from the house. Then, sometime between Oct. 23 and Oct. 25, a home on Route 619 was broken into by thieves who forced open the front door to gain entry. Several pieces of stereo equipment were taken from that home. Capt. Streapy recovered the equipment from a pawn shop in Manassas several days later. Capt. Streapy asked that anyone with information about any of the burglaries contact him at the Rappahannock County Sheriffs Department in Washington, (703) 675-3331 or 675-3332.

National Forest plans public hearing Nov. 13 George Washington National Forest’s next public meeting will be Tuesday, Nov. 13 in Lexington,” Forest Supervisor Wayne Kelley announced last week. This is one in a series of public meetings addressing revision of the forest’s land-management plan. Forest officials have been involved in an 11-year effort to develop a Land and Resource Management Plan, required by the National Forest Management Act of 1976. This is actually a revision of a plan developed in 1986 that was appealed by 18 various individuals and groups and ordered to be redone by Forest Service Chief F. Dale Robertson. “The purpose of this meeting will be to discuss alternative themes to be considered in detail in the revision,” said Ron Lindenboom, leader of the interdisciplinary (ID) team of seven full-time Forest Service professionals. The ID team has been working with interested citizens at the public meetings, identifying more different issues and concerns than had been noted during previous planning ef forts. “The revised plan will be an issues-driven plan,” Mr. Lindenboom said. The goal is a plan that allows multiple use of the forest’s more than 1.1 million acres. The public meetings have featured input from concerned citizens, area representatives of state agencies and several environmental groups, including the Audubon Society, Appalachian Trail Club, Earth First! in addition to businessmen representing the timber industry and off-road/all-terrain vehicle enthusiaists. “The key to this plan is public input,” Supt. Kelley said, “but it does take more time.” The plan’s completion date recently was extended six months until May 1992. The meeting will be at the Howard Johnson Lodge off Interstate 81 (Exit 53) at U.S. 11. It will start at 6:30 p.m. and continue until 9:30. More information about the plan is available by visiting the forest supervisor’s office in Harrisonburg or telephoning Mr. Lindenboom at (703) 433-2491 (ext. 287/286).

FBI quits Klan probe; See claims coverup By MARY K. BLEWITT Arundel Newspapers Staff Writer The FBI and the Department of Justice abandoned the investigation of the alleged Ku Klux Klan-related murders of as many as 20 blacks in the Washington area during the 1960s, after their source of information failed a third lie-detector test last week. Edward Allen See, a Nevada prison inmate, sparked an investigation by the FBI, the Justice Department and the State Police when he related that a band of teens connected with the Ku Klux Klan tortured and murdered blacks, randomly seized off the streets in D.C. and neighboring counties, and then buried them on a Fauquier County farm. The story, which was first reported on FOX Television Oct. 25, ignited a brush fire of discussion within the county as to whether such a crime could have occurred without anyone’s knowledge. The FBI found little stock in the tale, saying in a statement released Nov. 2, “After a thorough review and evaluation of the information and allegations provided by inmate Edward See, to date the FBI and the Department of Justice have determined that the matter does not warrant further inquiry.” Despite failing two consecutive lie-detector tests this month, See continued to defended his story in a telephone interview with the Fauquier Times-Democrat Thursday evening, Nov. 1, and implied that authorities have something to hide. “What it boils down to is certain people know what’s going to happen. Certain people don’t want it to happen,” See said. See is serving two consecutive life sentences for the murders of two Las Vegas women in 1979 and an additional 15-year sentence for an attempted escape in which he took hostages. He is attempting to use the information as a bargaining chip in a plan to have his friend, Henry Jenks, also a convicted murderer in Nevada, transferred to the same prison. See said he wants an independent lie-detec tor test to be conducted. “I think we got a conflict, and I think people don’t want it to go on,” said See. The Nevada inmate still refused to give the location of the supposed burial site and would not give up the names of any participants. He implied that the Klan’s grand wizard in D.C. has influence in Washington, and that the grand wizard was one of the persons being protected by an alleged conspiracy to cover up the crimes. See said he became involved with the Klan at the age of 13 through the son of the grand wizard. He also said that he was a foster child and lived for a time at Wheatley Farm owned by James Rollison. The Fauquier County Sheriffs Office was contacted by the State Police, and though Sheriff Ashby Olinger could not confirm that See lived for a time in Fauquier County, he said his office did learn that See was charged with a speeding violation in Fauquier in 1967. R.O. Updike, a 63-year-old resident of Orlean, who said he remembers See living in Fauquier County, doesn’t consider him to be a reliable source. “He was a habitual liar and a thief,” said Mr. Updike. Mr. Updike, who lives between Wheatley and Bear’s Den, confirmed that See lived with Mr. Rollison, saying that Mr. Rollison was “thinking he could help him.” “[See] was a good bit of trouble for everyone,” said Mr. Updike, who recalled See as a blond youngster with a fair complexion and small build. “But he wasn’t much trouble ’til your back was turned,” he added. When asked if there was any truth in See’s story, Mr. Updike said, “I don’t think there’s a thing in the world to what he’s talked about.” Sheriff Olinger echoed the sentiments of Updike, saying, “I didn’t think there was much truth to that because if there were that many graves, somebody would have found something.” Christmas concert Dec. 2,7 The Culpeper-Pjedmont Choral Society will present its annual Christmas Candlelight Concert at . the Culpeper Baptist Church, 318 S.

Foster New group to be county farmers' advocate By LOU HATTER Rappahannock N«w» Staff Writer The decline of farming in America has been a concern for some years. A new organization in Rappahannock County plans to do something about the problem. The Rappahannock Farmers’ Association, which launched a membership drive this week, evolved from the work of the Agricultural Advisory Committee, a study group formed at the request of the county’s Planning Commission. Two of the members of the Agricultural Advisory Committee, Lindsay Eastham and James F. Massie Jr., will serve as the chairman of its board of directors and its president, respectively. Both men come from long-time farming families, and they share a devotion to farming and the land — especially the land of their native county. “We hope that this organization will be the true voice of agriculture and open space in the county,” Mr. Massie explained. “We want to give the fanners a voice,” Mr. Eastham added. “They have never had a unified voice. We have had a lot of good responses” to the idea. Both men stressed that the organization does not plan to be a kneejerk opponent of growth in the county. Such a stand is “unrealistic,” Mr. Massie said. “We hope we can work with development so we can still have agriculture and open space,” Mr. Eastham added. One major thrust of the organization’s efforts, they explained, will be toward educating the public about alternatives to selling agricultural land for development. Transferable Development Rights, or TDRs, is one option now being explored by state legislators. That would allow one landowner, a farmer for example, to sell all or part of the density allocated for his land to another landowner. In return for the financial gain, the seller would forever lose all or part of the development rights to that property. Though such a transfer would encumber the property and limit future development, it does offer options for a landowner who wants to keep the land in agriculture or open space. And, by allowing more dense use of areas already designated for development, the concept could be useful in limiting developmental sprawl. “It sounds funny that a fanning organization would be talking about development,” Mr. Massie said. But, the organization hopes that it can eventually offer some options to farmers contemplating retirement so that, “instead of the traditional move of selling out . . . they could get some type of equity for the land while still keeping some acreage in agriculture.” The land use taxation program is another area where the organization hopes that it can educate the public to its value. “Everybody is very concerned with the possibility that land use might be done away with,” according to Mr. Massie.

No appointment necessary 703-743-7272 Rappahannock News photo/Lou Hatter ORGANIZERS OF THE Rappahannock Farmers’ Association Lindsay Eastham (left) and James F. Massie Jr., have as their goal the preservation of agriculture as well as protection of the county’s beautiful vistas, like the one behind them. Land use labors under a “misconception” that, because land in agricultural uses is taxed at a substantially lower rate than its fair market value, the county is losing money, he explained. However, Mr. Massie pointed out, the land requires far less in services than is paid in taxes, even at the reduced rate. And, the farmer’s home and one acre surrounding it are taxed at the fair market rate. “People think farmers are ‘getting over.’ They don’t realize that open fields don’t require police, or schools . . . we hope to change their perceptions.” “We don’t want to be antagonistic,” Mr. Eastham stressed. “We want to work with other organizations with similar goals. But, he added, “we also want to hear from people who don’t like land use. We’d like to talk to them about it. . . try to explain land use without polarizing the issue any more than it is.” Mr. Eastham said that the American Farmland Trust, along with the Piedmont Environmental Council and the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection, has been doing some work in the county evaluating its land use program, as well as exploring other, innovative alternatives. “The state has decided it is time to do something to protect and preserve the countryside, and we want to explore the possibilities of using it in Rappahannock County,” Mr. Massie added. The group also plans to sponsor seminars on issues of interest to farmers, and would like to institute a scholarship program for graduates of Rappahannock County High School.

The best selection of books in Virginia (or at least Rappahannock County) Those young people, the men said, represent the future of farming. Looking to that future, they predicted that the county will continue to see the diversification of agriculture which has marked the past 10 years, such as farmland given over to the cultivation of flowers, grapes, organic farming and other non-traditional agricultural uses. “We will also see the large farms grow out some more,” Mr. Massie predicted, as more small producers find their operations are no longer profitable. Given the cost of machinery and the shortage of labor, the only economy is farming done on a large scale. But the two men remain optimistic. “We have a lot of opportunities that other generations didn’t have. But we also have a lot of problems ... we hope to turn the tide and change the disadvantages into advantages.” Veteran's Day closings The following businesses will be closed on Monday, Nov. 12 in observance of Veteran’s Day: The Rappahannock National Bank in Washington and the Farmers & Merchants Bank in Flint Hill. The county government offices will be closed, as will the Social The alternative, they agreed, is unacceptable. “People have got to realize that unless something is done there won’t be anyone left to produce the cheap food we have had for generations,” Mr. Massie said. “If enough people get out at farming,” Mr. Eastham agreed, “it will become the law of supply and demand — and food prices will go up.” The Rappahannock Farmers’ Association hopes that, through its efforts, such a scenario will not become a reality. The Rappahannock Fanners' Association invites the general public, as well as agricultural producers, to join in its efforts.

Published by the Rappahannock News, a division of Arundel Newspapers, Inc. Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation.. Audit Bureau THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8,1990 Editorial Farming advocates In an article in this week’s paper, the formation of the Rappahannock Farmers’ Association is announced. The group’s stated aim is the preservation of agriculture in Rappahannock County, as well as the preservation of the traditional way of life it provides for many of the residents of our lovely rural county: We support the group in its aims, and wish it success. We suspect that most of the county’s residents, be they natives or newcomers, also share the goal of preserving a way of life which forms the basis of the county as it has been for many years. That long-time tradition is under attack from many quarters. Burgeoning suburban development is pushing out toward the mountains from the Metro D.C. area. Rising land values create nearly irresistable pressures — even if the landowner is determined to see the land remain in agriculture. Rising property tax rates are fueling demands from some that the present system of land use taxation — whereby agricultural land is taxed at a rate lower than its fair market value to encourage the farmer to keep it in production or open space rather than sell it for the highest (read that residential development) price — be modified or even abandoned altogether. We’re not going to argue the pros and cons of such a move here. Those have been argued is this space before, and we’re sure they will be the subject of future editorial comments as well. Land use is not the only issue. In the next few years, decisions are going to be made by local officials which will impact not only the future of agriculture in Rappahannock County, but the future of the county and its residents as a whole. Farming has been an important — perhaps the most important — business in Rappahannock County for many years. We are glad that the county’s farmers are organizing . to give their viewpoint a united voice. We urge residents who share their aims to contact the group’s leaders and join the effort. Their membership is open to non-agricultural producers as well as active farmers. Their concerns are too important, and their opinions too valuable, to be overlooked when the time comes for these decisions to be made.

To the editor: The Rappahannock Players have done it again! Mounting “On the Air,” they have mobilized the community with an entertaining review that gladdens us with talent we have seen before and discovers new abilities we look forward to seeing again. “On the Air” chronicles radio in our lives from 1927 to 1950. For senior citizens, it evokes the world that World War II ended. For others, it is something of an amusing and moving history lesson. Sean Kilpatrick, Steve Hostetter, Howard Coon and Waldron O’Connor bring back the world of the sports announcer, “The Shadow,” “The Lone Ranger” and other radio features of excitement and pleasure. Linda Heimstra, Linda Orfila, Bob and Virginia Scott, Edith Tennett and Brett Taylor portray how radio brought news, musical advertisements, a crooner, humorous entertainment and a sense of the outside world into our lives. Many others, children and adults, 27 in all, become part of the scene and what radio meant, for instance, to the people of Rappahannock County long before TV was a fact of life. We are even treated to the charms of children entertainers, Jessica Harrup as “Baby Rosemarie” and Alice Gentry as “Little Alice” - none brighter or more poised than they were singing their songs. Revealing a treasure of talent we haven’t heard before, story singer Virginia Scott gives us a version of SO THAT S IVHEReH THEY GET THEIR IPEAS / O.K.

CATHY LANE Secretary Population at root of problem To the editor: It seems to me that all these people who are bundling up newspapers and recycling aluminum cans and glass bottles are overlooking the obvious. To me, recycling is like putting a band-aid on skin cancer - treating the symptom without correcting the problem. Because the problem isn’t too much trash and waste; the problem isn’t pollution; the problem isn’t development, or industrial waste, or automobiles. The problem, very simply, is just too many people. Never mind figures and statistics. Just consider this: every human being, no matter how much he recycles, no matter how much love and respect he has for the environment, will in his lifetime create uncounted thousands of tons of garbage, exhale untold cubic yards of carbon dioxide, and create untold gallons of sewage. livery adult human being 1 know owns and drives at least one car and has electricity in his house. When a family produces five children, these enormous waste figures of course increase by five. Even if these five new people and their proud parents recycle until they are blue in the .face, their efforts cannot begin to compensate for the extra garbage, waste, and crowding they will create over their lifetimes. And of course an expanding pop. ulation means industry must expand, along with its waste and pollution. Five more customers. It means more houses, more subdivisions, less open space. Why are the natives busy cutting down the Brazilian forest? Why are the virgin forests of our Northwest being wiped out? It isn’t because it’s fun to use a chain saw. It isn’t because timber companies are greedy, although I’m sure they are. But for all their greed they can’t sell one stick of lumber until somebody, some additional family, needs a house. An increasing population demands additional wood products for more homes. Increasing populations need food that can be grown on the land cleared in Brazil. Years ago, in the 1960s, I used to go down to Nags Head, on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. There were a few vacation homes there in those days, and one big hotel, as I remember it, but it was mostly a wild place with friendly natives who spoke a lilting dialect. I recently went back there. The place is Manassas-by-the-Sea, wallto-wall hotels, movie theaters, malls, condos and traffic. It took me three hours to cross the bridge, coming home. The place is ruined. It’s gone, and all the recycling in the world won’t bring it back. People like to say that development ruined it. No, I don’t buy that. It’s ruined simply because too many people live there or visit there. Too many people in the cities want some place to visit on the ocean. You can’t blame the people - once you’re born, you have as much right to a vacation by the seas as the next person. Don’t blame the developers - they can only sell a house if there are some additional customers entering the adult population. Hypocrisy muddies the water. The businessman who wants to see Warrenton grow is planning to retire in Rappahannock County, you can bet on it. The shop owner in little Washington who wants to see more commercial growth has a home further out in the country. If you want more growth, you’ve got to expect the extra people, and you can only expect more development, more expansion, more roads and tra ffic, and bigger hotels and bed-andbreakfasts. It makes me crazy to hear local politicians and businessmen talking about the need for growth, or controlled growth, or healthy growth. Of course they’re talking about population growth, as opposed to growth of productivity. Now, I’ve got to wonder, why? Why does Manassas have to become as crowded as Fairfax? Why does Warrenton have to become Manassas? Why does a beautiful place like Nags Head have to disappear? Well, the five hypothetical kids I was talking about are going to grow up, and they have to live somewhere. They have to take vacations. They have to have houses and cars and stores to shop in. So what am I getting at? Just this. Do you really want to save the environment? Do you want to make the world a better place in the future? If so, and if you are married and thinking of having a big family, think again. Is your biological clock ticking? So is the biological time bomb of over-population. Instead of making babies, get yourself a hobby, maybe reading.. Expand your mind, not the population. And by all means, recycle. The excess population is already here, so we must treat the environment gently - we have no choice. But remember that there are long-range measures we can take, as well. There is more to solving the problem than separating garbage. ' BILL FITZSIMONS Flint Hill RAWL says 'Thanks!'

Election should not end political discussion By LEE BIRD Rappahannock Neva Contributing Writer By the time this letter is published, the elections will be over and the results will have become history. However, the political process will not have been completed. Political discussion should therefore continue, since our country has many issues that must be resolved. With that thought in mind, I would like to answer some of the arguments made in the Rappahannock News’ letters section last week. First, the News was criticized for endorsing Mr. Smith for Congress, with the thought that a newspaper could not do so without surrendering its objectivity. The lamentation that the Democrats could not find a candidate to challenge Mr. Warner in the Senate race seemed to the writer to compound the News’ lack of objectivity. These arguments are readily answered. The opinions of the editor were expressed only in the Editorial column. The news columns and coverage were balanced and fair; there has been no complaint on that score. It is not only customary, but also consistent with a newspaper’s devotion to objectivity, for that paper to express its editors opinions in political and other matters (such as widening U.S. 211, for example), so long as they are confined to the Editorial column. The News has always been open to letters expressing opposing views. It is always a sad event when a candidate for political office is unopposed, regardless of party. If there is no opposition, how will the issues facing the country be addressed? I suspect that the lack of a Democratic candidate for Mr. Warner’s seat was owing to the high cost of running a successful campaign against a well known senatorial incumbent. We need campaign reform if we are to have a healthy political process. Second, in an earlier exchange of letters, Mr. Sweet and I discussed Opinion the issue of whether a large defense establishment was sufficient by itself to deter a foreign country from invading a third country. I concluded (I don’t know how Mr. Sweet feels on this point!) that it was not, citing Saddam Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait. We have a very large Defense establishment, Mr. S. Hussien knew it, and he invaded Kuwait. Q.E.D. But the unquenchable Mrs. Pond argues (1) that Mr. S. Hussein invaded because he believed that we would not fight, and (2) that the reason he thought we would not fight was that there was “so much handwringing among shortsighted people. When I say that I agree with Mrs. Pond in her first argument, I hope she won’t backpedal on it. She is undoubtedly correct. However, l reject her second argument for two reasons: first, the handwringing was done by farsighted, not shortsighted people; and second, our Ambassador to Iraq, in a taped (and therefore verifiable) interview with Mr. S. Hussein shortly before his invasion of Kuwait, told him that the U.S. would not object. The tape in question was available to and reported by the press. The Bush Administration has not denied it. When I greeted a friend recently, I innocently asked him how things were going in Sperryville. He replied, with a cryptic smile, that notwithstanding all the rain we’ve had lately, some of the ponds had gone dry. Third, under a heading that read “Republican values are correct,” Mr. Marocchi wrote a purportedly thoughtful piece on history and politics, in which he ranged widely over a number of subjects. The thrust of his agrument was that a limited government is best because it promotes freedom and permits each individual to assume personal responsibility for his affairs. The corollary to his argument was that welfare is both corrupting and demoralizing to its beneficiaries. This an argument that expresses quintessential Republican philosophy and has an appealing simplicity. The questions I raise briefly in answer have to do with (1) whether the theory can be justified regardless of the fact situation to which it is applied, and (2) what have been some of the consequences of the theory in recent years. On the first point, it would seem to be fair for the government to allow all its citizens equal opportunity and complete freedom to act without governmental assistance or intervention, so long as all were playing on a level playing field. But, I submit, the playing field is not, and never has been, level. Many of us have been subsidized by scholarships, inheritance, or the like, and have been showered with privileges, while others, through no fault of their own, have not. The child who grows up malnourished in an urban ghetto, who lives in poverty in a single parent home, is “at risk” in several ways. Can it be seriously argued that a head start program would demoralize such a child? Doesn’t the Constitution state that one of its purposes is to “promote the general welfare?” We need thoughtful, carefully worked out both public and private programs, to address the ills of society, to which Mr. Marocchi refers. The cost of such programs would be amply repaid in the next generation. On the second point, the consequences of adopting Mr. Marocchi’s theory is well illustrated by the Savings and Loan scandal now devel oping. The scandal started with the Reagan proposal to “get the government off your backs,” i.e. to deregulate the S & L’s. Both parties in Congress agreed, and the deed was done. In one case, reported by the N.Y. Times, an Arizona businessman who secured $1.85 billion in Federal savings and loan subsidies with lobbying help from a former aide to President Bush was also able to buy an insolvent Oklahoma bank at a favorable price despite his failure to meet Federal standards for such purposes. He is under investigation for the way he acquired 15 insolvent Texas S & L’s, using $76 billion in borrowed money and a personal investment of $1,000. House Banking Committee investigators have found that buyers of troubled S & L’s will receive $78 worth of assets and government assistance for every $1 they invested. The failure of Federal regulators to regulate and the sweetheart deals worked out as the S & L scandal unfolds is the responsibility of the Executive Branch. The N.Y. Times reports that the Bush Administration opposes setting up an independent, nonpartisan commission to investigate and make recommendations. It appears in the S & L cases that the limited government advocated by Mr. Reagan has indeed set men free, but at what cost to all of us! The blind application of a simplistic ideology has led to disaster. Good government requires hard work and active participation on the part of all citizens. An Australian scholar, Professor John Braithwaite, has written, “societies with more unequal distribution of wealth and power will have greater crime problems at both ends: Inequality causes crimes of poverty motivated by need and crimes of wealth motivated by greed.” Letters Continued from page A-4 School House Restaurant, Moore’s Orchards and the Sperryville Antique Market.

Day REALTOR BEST AND WORST SCENARIOS All lenders must now meet disclosure requirements for ad justable rate mortgages (ARMS). Among these are: An historical example of how the requested loan would have worked during the last 15 years: how to convert that example to the borrower's own situation, and a worst case illustration of how the loan could perform if rates go up through the roof To show how the loan will perform under the worst possible circumstances, the example starts at the initial rate and moves rapidly up to the top interest rate and payment possible. Lenders must also explain how the index is adjusted and how future inter esf rates and payments will be determined. As you Know, interest rait-s can change either upward or downward with an adjustable loan. It’s nice to know how these rate changes (in either direction) will affect your future monthly payments. That’s what the disclo sure will tell you.

It does all our hearts good to know that so many participants care about the good work of the American Heart Association and want to demonstrate their determination to become and to remain “goodhearted” people by walking the beautiful six mile course or sponsoring and donating for those who did walk. We realized that we were “competing” with the Redskin-Lion game bat our president, Eino Siira, reported the scores periodically as he kept watch on the walkers to keep them on track Sunday afternoon.

ANN MILLER MARION FACCHINA Co-chairs, Turkeywalk From the Rappahannock News back when: 20 YEARS AGO November 12, 1970 A report on examination of accounts and financial records of Rappahannock County for the year ending June 30,1970 was a major item on the agenda of the meeting of the local Board of Supervisors Thursday. The audit, handled by Daniel A. Robinson & Associates of Charlottesville, was accompanied by a statement which said, in part, “the results of the audit indicated that the affairs of the county generally were well administered during the year, and^ the books and records found to be in good order. The examination disclosed that the Treasurer had made proper accounting for all funds of record coming into his custody.” Airman James E. Kilby, son of Mr. and Mrs. Bill W. Timbers of Woodville, has completed basic training at Lackland AFB, Texas. He has been assigned to Chanute AFB. 111., for training in aircraft maintenance. 15 YEARS AGO November 13, 1975 State Champion Pear Tree has been located in Amissville and is recorded on the Virginia Social Register of Trees by Virginia Forests, Inc., Richmond. The tree located on Route 211 west of Amissville borders the Mitchell Green property which was taken for future highway right-of-way. The tree is about 40 feet high with a 34 foot spread and measures 6 feet in circumference. What the fate of the tree will be when the road is eventually made a dual lane highway remains to be seen. Eloise Estes Terry of Hampton has been promoted to officer status at the Virginia National Bank in Hampton. She is assistant manager and loan officer at the Langley Circle office. She holds basic, standard and gen eral certificates from the American Institute of Banking. A native of Rappahannock Mrs. Terry is the daughter of Mrs. Bertha Armel of Washington. 10 YEARS AGO November 6, 1980 The Rappahannock County Fire and Rescue Association held a special fire school on October 18 and 19 at the training site in Amissville. The two day course focused on structural firefighting and its hazards. Area firemen participated in the training session which was led by Carl James and Paul Mauger, both of Chesterfield County, and R..C. Allen of Falls Church.

Rappahannock Journal Home winterization can cut heat bills BLACKSBURG - What do wooly bear caterpillars and economists have in common? Both are predicting bleak winters, with the temperatures and the economy falling off significantly. But that doesn’t mean you need to just sit back and take it. Keeping your heating bill reasonable, for instance, is a goal within reach for most homeowners, says an Extension housing specialist. It simply requires some old-fashioned planning and winterizing. “What is the important thing if I want my house ready for winter? First, check the furnace,” said Kathy Parrott, Virginia Cooperative Extension specialist at Virginia Tech. I ake along your vacuum cleaner, clean everything you can reach, especially the heat exchanger. Next, pull out the air filter and install a new one, which you hopefully have on hand. If you don’t, put air filters on your shopping list, Ms. Parrott suggests. Some furnace filters are permanent but require regular washing. If you have gas heat, check the pilot light for your furnace. The flame should be clear and blue. If it’s an orange color, a call to the heating contractor is in order. He or she will come to “tune up” your furnace so that it runs efficiently. Heat pumps are common for heating in Virginia, and they also require regular maintenance. Most manufacturers recommend professional servicing every one to two yearg? After the furnace, it’s time to take care of some related odds and ends, Ms. Parrott said. “Get some cleaning rags and a screwdriver and go around to each room of the house,” she said. “Take the grills off vents and cold air returns and clean each one to make sure they are unobstructed. The same is true for other types of heat registers, such as hot water or electric baseboard. I’d also suggest adjusting the heatflow from the vents or registers in some rooms. During winter in my house, for instance, I like more heat in my bathroom and less in the kitchen and bedroom. ” Then go outside to study the flues from the furnace, wood stove or fireplace. “This is important because you want exhaust gases from the combustible fuels to go outside,” Ms. Parrott said. There should be no leaves or other debris clogging the flue. Take a gander at your roof as well, checking for shingles that may be damaged, curled or loose. Those would be potential areas of heat loss, as well as water leaks. While you’re still outside, carefully go around the house checking each door, window, faucet, light fixture, vent and outlet to make sure the caulking is in good shape. If it’s dried-out or cracked, replace it by cleaning out the old caulk with a screwdriver, wiping down the surface with a damp rag and then recaulking. Back inside the house, check all the windows and doors again, opening and closing each one to make sure they close tightly and checking the condition of the weatherstripping. A little graphite will make windows operate more smoothly, Ms. Parrott said. Sp there you have it - a quick, easy way to make sure your home is in heat-efficient condition for the winter. Go let those wooly bears and economists know you’re ready. PENNSYLVANIA HOUS m AT THE STATION!!

His rival for her affections, Brom Bones, is a boastful man who intimadates Ichabod. Through Brom and Katrina, Ichabod learns of the “Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” - a headless horseman who frightens those who dare to go through the woods alone at night. Ichabod tries to get through the woods on his own, but he is met, head on, by the headless horseman he fears so much. Jaime Meyer’s adaptation of this classic story follows four actors as they perform a radio-play adaptation of the story. The audience is invited to participate - helping to create sound effects - as the actors create a dark night in the woods of Sleepy Hollow without any scenery at all! This production features Wayside Theatre on Tour company members Jerry Baggot, Jennifer Berman, Patrick Lawlor and Ellen Nichols. The play is directed by John Cooke. Especially designed for young audiences and families, tickets are $5 and can be purchased by calling RAAC at (703) 675-3193 or the Arts Hotline at (703) 675-3073. 'Flair' and 'elegance' mark cellist's style Acclaimed throughout Europe and the United States, Mary Fraley is a brilliant world-class cellist. Whether playing Beethoven or Paganini, a polonaise or an elegie on her 300-year-old cello, her musical sensitivity and total technical mastery have enchanted audiences around the world. During her tours of the United States and Europe as a recitalist, as soloist with orchestra and in chamber ensemble, Mary Fraley has received many accolades. The music critic of the Berlin paper, Die Welt, found her ensemble playing to be a “model of elegance,” while her recital in Washington was praised by the Washington Post for its “flair, and dashing musicality.” Notable among her many recent performances have been recitals at the Phillips Collection in Washington, and at the Piccolo Spoleto Festival in Charleston, S.C. A native of Maryland and now living in Knoxville, Tennessee, Ms. Fraley has been strongly influenced by cellist John Frazer at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music; Leonard Rose and Fellix Salmond at the Juillard School of Music; and Maurice Eisenberg at the Longy School of Music in Cambridge. Frequent comment is made upon the beautiful instrument she plays, which is a Nicolaus Amati cello, built in Cremona, Italy, in 1675. Mary Fraley will be appearing in concert at the Gay Street Theatre in Washington on Saturday, Nov. 17 at 8 p.m. Together with an accompanist, Ms. Fraley will present an evening of classical music including pieces by Schumann, Debussy, Tartini, Rachmaninoff, von Weber, Chopin and Popper. Concert tickets may be purchased by calling RAAC at (703) 675-3193 or the Arts Hotline at (703) 675-3073 for the location of the nearest ticket outlet.

Self-employed must file income report “If you are operating a business as a self-employed person, you are earning Social Security coverage,” according to Bruce A. Hundley, Social Security office manager in Culpeper. You are self-employed if you engage in a trade, business or profession, either by yourself or as a partner, Mr. Hundley explained. You and your husband or wife or other family members may operate a business together. Each partner then reports a share of self-employment income for taxes according to the partnership agreement. You report these earnings as part of your income tax return. If your net earnings are at least $400, you must file a tax return even though you owe no other taxes, he stressed. For information about self-employment and Social Security, people can call toll-free (800) 2345-SSA and ask for the Factsheet “If You’re Self-Employed,” Mr. Hundley said.

Eye exam vital to hunting safety “Hunting is a great American tradition - but before you adjust your gun sights this fall, make sure your own sight is on target,” suggests Frank J. Carlomagno, Executive Director of the National Society to Prevent Blindness-Virginia Affiliate. Every year shooting accidents occur when hunters either mistake people for game or fail to see others standing in their line of fire. In 1989 the Virginia Game Commission reported four deaths and 48 people injured due to hunting accidents. To help prevent these tragic accidents, the National Society to Prevent Blindness advises hunters to have their eyes checked before taking to the field. Mr. Carlomagno stated, “Many hunters are unaware that their vi sion is defective; they think that they see just fine, while others hesitate to admit they have a problem for fear they will have to (five up their sport.” This attitude sends hunters with poor eyesight into the field, thus a real menace exists to other hunters and their safety. Hunters should be especially cautious at dawn and dusk, when weak light and shadows tend to play tricks on the eye. The hunter who is bothered by glare will find that a good pair of safety sunglasses is an excellent aid to combat this problem. Smoke or neutral gray is recommended, followed by green and brown tints for lens color of the safety sunglasses. Yellow lenses are unsuitable because they can interfere with color perception and the ability to judge distance.

It has been found in Virginia that deer-car accidents and losses start in September, peak in November and carry through January. The peak coincides with maximum deer numbers and the onset of deer breeding season. How dangerous is it? According to 1987 figures from the Virginia Department of Transportation, an estimated $3.7 million dollars of property damage resulted from deer-vehicle collisions. And in that same year, 214 persons were injured in 186 accidents involving personal injury. An addition 2,762 deer-related accidents resulted in property damage only, for a total of 2,948 deer-vehicle mishaps in that 12-month period. Coincidentally, the firearm deerhunting season begins in November and does its share to get the animals moving from place to place. The season begins Nov. 19 and continues in some sections of the Old Dominion until Jan. 5. This combination of hunting and breeding season ensures that deer will be more active and cross over and near highways. lilen Hetzel, Virginia lech Extension safety specialist and agricultural engineer, said defensive driving is the key to safe driving. “When you see a deer, start slowing down - way down,” he cautioned. Reducing speed from 55 to 45 mph isn’t enough to give you time to react. The animal could bound into the woods or dash toward you. “The only thing you can depend on in deer is their unpredictability,” Mr. Hetzel said. “By slowing way down, you can cope with a deer leaping in front of you.” You also can’t tell if the deer is traveling alone or with others. It’s best to assume there is more than one and you don’t know if it is the first or last in the group. Tapping on the horn can help to alert the deer to your presence. Research has shown a series of short blasts seem to work best. The deer-car collision hazard has opened up a whole new market deer alert whistles to keep the animals out of harm’s way. The devices attach to a vehicle and as the wind rushes through, they supposedly emit a sound that keeps deer away. But the experts say the whistles only help the company selling them as research has shown them to be useless. Bob Duncan, chief of the wildlife division, Virginia Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries, said he has found the whistles to be a “waste of money.” Defensive driving is the “alarm that works.” He quotes research at the University of Georgia that found one of the devices made no sound between speeds of 25 mph and 50 mph. Georgia researchers previously found that white-tailed deer cannot hear frequencies significantly above those which a human can detect. Mr. Duncan also tells the story of a Georgia driver who, after hitting a deer in July, installed a deer whistle and proceeded to hit two additional deer in August. Estimates of the deer population generally place the number of whitetails in the Commonwealth at 700,000 and they can be found in every county and in many urban areas. If you have the misfortune to be involved in a deer-vehicle collision, remember that you are required by law to report the accident to a game warden or other law enforcement officer in the county or city where the accident occurs. 50 Special-3.1 cu. in. 51cc The 50 Special features increased power and a larger murner io neip reauce neai and noise for easier cutting Perfect for firewood or working out back FREE CASE NOW ONLY $34995 Reg. ‘409* Richard's Engine Sales & Service Shop Rt. 29, Leon, VA 703-547-2127 WINTER SERVICE mam CUSTOMER CARE ■rv For Your New & Used Car Needs Buy From The Name You Can Trust.

Family Continued from page A-1 County Administrator John McCarthy, who had originally supported the amendment forbidding the sale of land acquired by family subdivision for two years said, “The intent was good; the logic is good, but the enforcement would be sheer terror.” He said that he feels the two-year waiting period for those buying land to subdivide would eliminate the worst of the speculators. The rest of the zoning amendments were adopted basically as the Planning Commission had recommended except that the amendment that would have required that family apartments be located no more than 200 feet from the main house was amended to exempt apartments created in pre-existing structures, such as a bam. Earlier the supervisors approved Carson and Aileen Johnson’s request to rezone about four and a half acres of a 10-acre parcel from rural residential to village residential. This would allow lots of one acre instead of five acres. One lot on the parcel on which the Johnson’s son has built a house would remain in rural residential, and four new one acre lots would be created. “It will be within the village of Sperryville. It is served by public sewer. There is a five-acre lot as a buffer. It seems like a logical thing to do,” Charles K. “Pete” Estes, who represents Piedmont District, said. The supervisors also approved a seven-lot subdivision for Charles Pestana off of Route 662 near Huntly. All of the lots would be at least 25 acres in size. The supervisors felt they had to approve the special exception for the subdivision because it met all the requirements, but they did so reluctantly because Route 662 in that area is so narrow. “It’s a one-lane road,” supervisor Rappahannock Business & Service Directory 703/675-3338 Only $3.75 per week for a 1 inch space!

Mr. McCarthy said, “It’s a conforming subdivision that happens to be at the end of a very poor unimproved state road. There is no question but that the public will have to spend money on that road because of the subdivision.” Overflow Continued from page A-1 This October, when the basement again became flooded, Mrs. Kiger contacted the Health Department in Culpeper. Wallace Graham, who normally works in the Orange office, answered her telephone call and came out to look at the situation. The Health Department then arranged for Tuesday’s meeting. Mrs. Kiger went to Florida and brought back Sam Aphey, a plumber she knew who had retired there. Before the others came to the meeting he had already suggested that a new line be run to the tank, and that the drain holes in her basement be plugged up and a sump pump installed. WSA member Carson Johnson said that the sewage treatment plant normally handles between 19,000 and 20,000 gallons ©f water a day, but during the period of heavy rains in October it was receiving an average of 75,000 gallons a day and a record flow of 100,000 gallons on one dav. “We’re getting a complete wash out of the plant,” he said. When that happens the plant loses all its chemicals and bacterial action and has to start over, he said. He said that when the plant first opened there were other tanks that had the same problem, “and we took care of them.” The WSA members agreed that if Mr. Aphey would bring a new line through the foundation of the house, the WSA would pay to connect it to the tank, to disconnect the old line and to make sure there was no structural damage to the tank. Mrs. Kiger was not entirely satisfied. She wanted assurances that if she did the work and still had problems she would get more help from the WSA and Health Department. They assured her that if she did the work she would not have problems with sewage, but she still might have problems with groundwater. 911 Continued from page A-1 fast. Never underestimate the power of a letter to the State Corporation Commission. ” “I applaud C & P for coming around,” Mr. McCarthy said on Monday. “I’ve never seen anything work that fast. Never underestimate the power of a letter to the State Corporation Commission.” Customers in the “987” exchange now join Centel customers in the “675” exchange, who can also reach the dispatch office by dialing 911. However, “635” and “636” customers in the Centel service area must dial the seven-digit number, 9878525, because their 911 calls will be routed to Warren County’s dispatch office in Front Royal. Sheriff John Henry Woodward stressed that customers in the “937” and “547” exchanges in Amissville, Castleton and Boston who live in Rappahannock County must also still dial the old seven-digit emergency number, 987-8525. II tnose customers dial 911, he explained, their call will be routed to the Culpeper County dispatch office, which will delay the response of fire, rescue or law enforcement to the emergency. “It has caused problems in the past,” the sheriff said, and the potential for a delay in response is a serious concern. For the 57 customers in the “987” exchange who live in Culpeper County and dial 911, their call will go to the Rappahannock County dispatch office. But because of a special switching arrangement, the dispatcher there can transfer the call directly to Culpeper’s dispatch office with the touch of one button once the location is determined. Sheriff Woodward cautioned residents that, because the new 911 system is the basic system rather than the enhanced version, the caller must still tell the dispatcher their location. “Once the E-911 system is installed, when the connection is made, we’ve got it. But right now we don’t have that feature.” Once the enhanced 911 system is in place, the exchanges can be divided down the county line, with customers in Culpeper County being automatically routed to their dispatch office, while their neighbors in Rappahannock will be switched to the dispatch office in Washington when they dial 911. The basic system does not have that selective switching feature, however. And although the supervisors approved a telephone surcharge to pay for the installation of the E-911 system several months ago, the county must still establish a database for the computer program which runs that system. Sheriff Woodward estimated that, due to the work involved, E-911 will not be installed for at least two years. Meanwhile, for residents used to the old seven-digit emergency number, Sheriff Woodward added, 9878525 is still an active emergency line for calls coming into the county dispatch office. Rappahannock News staff writer Sharon Kilpatrick also contributed to this article. Large tax refund is gov't loan BLACKSBURG — You may think getting a large tax refund every spring is a true blessing, but did you know that you were giving the IRS a gift of its own? By claiming fewer exemptions than members in the family, or simply by having too much withheld from your paycheck, you are getting back a refund — but it’s a sum that comes without interest. “Essentially you’re giving the government an interest-free loan for the entire year” said Elaine Scott, Extension family finance specialist at Virginia Tech. “And no one wants to give Uncle Sam an interest-free loan.” If you’re getting back more than $300 a year, you should go ahead and modify your exemptions by filing a new W-4 form, Scott suggested. Additional W-4 forms usually can be obtained from your employer. Unfortunately, the worksheet that is attached to the W-4 form usually overestimates or underestimates your tax liability. (It does, however, act as a safety cushion against penalties from the IRS, so that even if you were to withhold too much or too little, keeping the worksheet will prevent the IRS from penalizing you, Scott said. You still may have to pay the tax owed, but there would be no penalty.) Election Continued from page A-1 is the alternative.” While Mr. Smith, a 34-year-old minister from Winchester, campaigned vigorously around the district on a "change Congress” platform, the strategy proved insufficient to pursuade voters that such a change would be for the better. Mr. Smith conceded the race to Slaughter at about 9:15 p.m. He said Slaughter’s refusal to debate him was one factor that hindered his attempts to capture the seat.

The challenger’s staff professed, concern early in the evening, shortly after the polls closed, when the returns from Charlottesville indicated that Mr. Smith had taken the city by a 55-45 percent margin. “That’s not a good as we had hoped,” campaign spokesman Ellis Woodward said. It proved to be a harbinger of worse news ahead. Congressman Slaughter attributed his .victory to the values he shares with his constituents in the Seventh District. “The majority felt that I was doing a good job,” said Rep. Slaughter at a campaign victory party held in his hometown pf Culpeper. “People felt like I’ve been working hard.” The congressman said he plans to continue serving as long as his constituents want him to. “I’m going to work and do the best job I can,” said Mr. Slaughter. He told his Republican supporters that the victory motivates him “to attack the challenges of 1990 with renewed energy and vision — let’s keep a good thing going.” Rep. Slaughter, who has never lost an election, served 20 years in the Virginia House of Delegates before his election to the House of Representatives. Rappahannock County tracked the Commonwealth with the voting on the four amendments to the state constitution. County voters strongly supported, by an 85-15 percent margin, a proposal to allow lower rates for personal property taxes for certain low-income elderly and disabled residents. County voters also approved of a constitutional amendment to allow cash and property seized in drug arrests to be disbursed to law enforcement agencies for further drug investigations rather than be placed in the state Literary Fund. The two amendments to allow pledge bonds without the approval of voters by a referendum were both soundly defeated. The first, to allow local governments to pledge tax revenues to secure the debt, was defeated by an 80 percent to 20 percent margin. A second proposal to allow the state to assume a similar debt was also roundly defeated, 83 per, cent to 17 percent. James F. Massie and Cliff Latham, who were running unopposed for two seats on the Board of Directors of the Culpeper Soil and Water Conservation District, both won reelection.

Ki Theater (pronounced key), formerly called The Golden Key, is a multidisciplinary arts performing group combining dance, music, story-telling and theater. “Our mission is to present work that is politically, culturally and spiritually relevant, and also to speak to the diversity of cultures in our culture,” Artistic Director Julie Portmen said. “We are committed to crossing the boundaries that separate the different art forms and the boundaries that separate the artist and the audience.” Workshops on “Dancing with Your Voice” and “Telling Good Stories” given by Ms Portman started this week and will continue throughout November. A performance “Paths to the Edge” with Ms Portman, Paul Reisler and Bob Read presenting new stories and music is scheduled for Dec. 1, in conjunction with Washington’s Colonial Christmas. This winter will see a series of four Sunday evening exchanges between artists and their audiences. The first “The Writer” on Jan. 13 will feature Nol Putnam reading from his autobiography, “With Apologies to Chekhov”. On Feb. 10 “The Composer” will feature Carlton Coon, Lorraine Duisit, and Richard Squires. On March 10, “The Visual Artist” will be presented by Ruth Blackwell Rogers, and on April 7 “The Choreographer/Performer” will be presented by Sally Nash, Sharon Wyrrick and Denise Read. These four Sunday evenings collectively called “The Exchange” are planned to be low cost and to “acknowledge the importance the audienc plays, supporting the investment the artist and audience have in one another in enriching the life of the community together,” according to Ms Portman. The 1991 Memorial Day weekend will see a gathering of artists and audiences from Virginia, the Mid-Atlantic and New England states for performances and workshops including a performance of “Conference of the Birds, Part I” by Ki Theater and “American Stories” performed by The Actors’ Ensemble of New York. Besides these events which will take place at Ki Theater’s home in the old Town Hall in Washington, the group has a busy schedule of performances and workshops on tour throughout the nation and even overseas. “Each of the artists in Ki Theater has a major performing career on his or her own,” Ms Portman said. She performs with her husband Paul Reisler, who is the dominating spirit behind the Trapezoid band. The two of them frequently perform with Bob Read, another member of Trapezoid. lhe tno occasionally adds Mr. Head s wife Denise, who is a dancer with the Full Circle Dance Company. The fifth member of the group is Sharon Wyrrick of Woodville, choreographer for the dance company, and the sixth, Ted Pugh, is an actor who normally performs in New York. The only piece currently being performed that uses all six members of Ki Theater is “Conference of the Birds”, based on a 12th Century Persian poem. It tells the story of the decision of the birds, after many excuses for not acting are offered and dismissed, to set out on a journey in search of a new king. Ms Portman envisions this as a two or three-part performance, and only the first part is ready for presentation. Developing a second part is part of this year’s schedule. Besides the six performing members of the group, a production also relies on four technicians. Photo courtesy Ki Theatre THE KI THEATRE IS (clockwise from top right) Steve LeBlanc, Bob Read, Sharon Wyrrick, Julie Portman, Paul Reisler and Denise Read. How did this multi-talented group of people manage to find its way to Rappahannock and Washington’s Town Hall? Ms Portman said the group wanted to be near a city, and for her husband Washington, D.C. was as far north as he would go. A recent press release points out that the Rappahannock community contains many artists and others who have managed to make a life that “functions well without shopping malls, fast-food chains and traffic lights.” Ki Theater received a grant from the Virginia Commission for the Arts that has been used to employ a parttime arts manager to arrange for a fuller schedule of events. Other grants were used to support the performers in developing “Conference of the Birds,” but Ms Portman believes such funds will become less and less available. The group is trying to become independent of such funding. They have launched a drive seeking members to support the group as patrons, and all are working to de East German exchange student interviewed by Voice of America By LISA G. CURRIE Rappahannock News Staff Writer A voice from Rappahannock may be heard ‘round the world. Juliana Volkmar, the 16-year-old German, formerly East German, exchange student, hosted this year by the Dawn and Brad Fisher family in Washington, was interviewed by the Voice of America last Thursday, Nov. 1 in Washington, D.C. Voice of America is a gobal radio network that broadcasts news and other programs in 44 languages, to an estimated 130 million listeners, in over 40 nations worldwide. Established in 1942, broadcasts range from top news programs to popular music to live interviews and pre-recorded programs, like the one Juliana is participating in. Chosen for the program due to her former East German background, the young woman requested the use of former before East German to recognize her heritage. But, she is also proud to pronounce herself a German, since the two Germanys united in September, ending a 45-year division. j uiiana said tne interview, conducted by Voice of America newswoman Judith Latham, discussed various aspects of the exchange such as life in the new country, how the exchange was obtained, differences in school and family situations in her exchange country. “It was all very interesting,” the exchange student said, adding she has never before been inside a radio studio. “The studio was very large with huge microphones and one wall was glass,” she said, adding she could see the producers and technicians on the opposite side, in the sound room. “I was very nervous, too,” she said with a smile, adding her host * Rappahannock. News photo/Lisa G Cume EXCHANGE STUDENT JULIANA VOLKMAR is among the first group of students from the former East Germany to participate in an international exchange. parents attended the taping with her, giving her support and confidence. The Voice of America building, located on Independence Avenue in Washington, D.C., contains more than over 45 studios representing the countries in which their broadcasts are received. According to Juliana, the large office building was alive with people from around the world, working together td put tov gether news programs, feature broadcasts and other materials for listeners in many parts of the globe. Even though this was a place where Juliana could practice one of her three other languages, Russian, German and French, everything w'as in English. “It’s very hard to speak German, now,” she said with a shy smile, addSee INTERVIEW, p. B-8 velop more sources of earned income “and still be true to what our mission is. We will not create pap theater,” she said. She sees the problems for-artists and farmers as similar. “Agriculture and the arts are at the same place now,” she said. “Agriculture is desperately needing people to decide it is important to support land so it can continue to be farmed. We all have to make decisions. We have to ask, ‘Is art central to quality of life, helping us meet challenges, creating alternatives to what we are finding?’ If not, then we can’t expect art to continue to be supported or to be created.” Clearly Ms Portman believes that art is central to a life of quality. When she was searching for a “more contemporary” name for the Golden Key, she found the form Ki in a book on the derivation of Japanese pictographs. It came from ancient Chinese and means life energy or life force, and originates from the form which symbolizes rice, the fundamental food of Asia. Heus show opens Nov. 10 at Rush River By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer An exhibition of paintings by local artist Ray Heus will open at Washington’s Rush River Company this Saturday, Nov. 10. Mr. Heus, who has lived in Rappahannock County, most recently in Old Hollow, since 1981, said his philosophy of painting is to “just go out and try to do something beautiful. It’s a beautiful world out there, and I just try to paint it.” He explained that he has adapted his painting technique to make it easier to capture the fleeting moments of perfect light and shadow he sees as he works. Working with gouache, “watercolors without the water,” he explained, Mr. Heus paints on a paper which is an empire green color rather than the usual white. Alter sketching the Dasic lines ot the painting with charcoal, Mr. Heus begins filling in the light colors. But because the rich green of the paper is a color often found in nature, Mr. Heus said, “when you put colors on that paper it comes alive — and that’s what’s out there.” The technique, he said, enables him to play “beat the clock for three or four hours,” racing to complete the painting against the changing shadows and angles as the sun moves across the sky. It also, he added, means that he doesn’t have to “spend a lot of time covering white paper” — as he would with traditional white paper. “I like to work fast, for three, four or five hours,” he said. “I don’t like to come back the next day — invariably something has changed. I like to do it in one sitting.” The gouache technique, he said, attracted him at first because of its portability. All his paints can be carried in a small tin, and the only other necessary supplies are brushes, a container of water and his paper. The opaque watercolors, combined with the green paper, are perfectly suited to the “visual texture” of Rappahannock County, Mr. Heus exSee HEUS, p. B-8

Boy Scout Council begins food drive This weekend more than 900 local Scouts will join the fight against hunger by collecting food to help feed the hungry in WinchesterFrederick, Clarke, Page, Warren, Rappahannock and Shenandoah counties in Virginia and Morgan, Berkeley and Jefferson in West Virginia. The Scouting for Food National Good turn kicks off Saturday, Nov. 10, when Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts and Explorers go door-to-door to distribute bags for the collection of non-perishable food, which is then donated to food banks for local distribution. On Saturday, Nov. 17, Scouts will return to pick up filled collection i bags, which they are asking residents to place outside their doors by 9 a.m. Those who do not receive collection bags, but would like to contribute, may call (703) 662-2551. The types of food most needed are nutritional non-perishable canned food items such as vegetables, meats and soups. Studies indicate that there are now more hungry people in America than at any time in the last 25 years. “This is an excellent demonstration of Scouting’s long-standing commitment to community service,” said Robert Barrett, Scouting For Food Chairman. Mr. Barrett is Sales Manager for Schenck Foods of Winchester. Food collected by Scouts will be taken to the Blue Ridge Food Bank Center, where it will be marked as donated items, sorted, and distributed to food pantrys serving the Shenandoah Area Council area. Local agencies that are cooperating with the Scouts include I.G.A. Stores, Flemming Foods, W. VA Air National Guard and the National Guard of Virginia. Last year, Shenandoah Area Council Scouts collected 30,000 pounds of food for nearly 2,700 families in the nine-county area. Cancer Society unit plans Smokeout Nov. 15 “Apart from holidays and April 15th, there is probably not another single day that captures the attention of the public as does the American Cancer Society’s Great American Smokeout,” says Carol Miller, Postmaster of Washington and local spokesperson for the American Cancer Society. “It’s one of the most important public health days in the world.” Held each year on the Thursday before Thanksgiving, the Great American Smokeout is a lively, upbeat event that tries to convince smokers to quit just for 24 hours. If they quit for 24 hours, maybe they'll go on to quit for good. At the very least, they’ll have one success to build on in future attempts to quit smoking. In 1989, 35.9 percent of the nation’s 50 million smokers participated in the Smokeout. One to three days later, 3.9 million were still not smoking. For more information on local Great American Smokeout activities, contact Carol Miller, (703) 6753691, or the Warrenton Office of the American Cancer Society, (703) 3472924.

Others were older, raising families and engaged in established occupations. Yet. each had a common denominator. All of those brave men and women put a halt to their lives as they knew them, left familiarity behind, and traveled to foreign shores, risking their lives to protect our concept of democracy. Inevitably, many died for this noble cause. Each time we cast our ballot. . . every Sabbath as we worship in the church or synagogue of our choice. . .those instances when we might express a political opinion without fear or reprisal, let us remember the months and years sacrificed by our veterans as they defended and still defend the rights which we enjoy today. As Veteran's Day approaches, may we honor the selfless men and women who have paid with a portion of their lives that ours might be free. fx^-piutes Se^ct«wt b.

Dried beans have good nutrition value By HELEN W. SMITH Home Extension Agent Last week at the Culinary Hearts Cooking Class that is underway at the Extension Office this month we discussed “meatless meals” using legumes, whole grain breads and cereals, and nuts as complementary proteins to make a nutritious meals. Meals with vegetable protein in place of meat, poultry, or fish can be low in saturated fat and cholesterol unless they contain egg yolks and high-fat dairy products. They provide variety in the diet. There is a great variety within the plant HOME ECONOMICS groups: vegetables, legumes, grains, nuts and seeds. Meatless meals are also economical. Protein in chicken is 2-1/2 times more expensive than bean protein; steak protein is eight times more expensive. Meatless meals are highly nutritious if they’re adequate in protein. Beans are rich in protein Protein supplies material for building, maintaining and repairing body tissue. You need protein every day. Proteins are made up of com pounds called amino acids. Although there are many different amino acids, nine of them are essential amino acids. These must be supplied through the diet since the human body cannot produce them. Protein from animals sources such as meat, poultry, fish or dairy products call contain the essential amino acids and are classified “complete” proteins. The protein in beans is low in methionine, one of the essential amino acids and therefore is called an “incomplete” protein. The lack of this amino acid is easily made up when beans are served with a food high in methionine such as rice or com. Thus these proteins found in beans and rice or com are said to be complementary proteins. Bean protein can also be made “complete” by serving them with small amounts of meat, fish, cheese or egg. Beans provide efficient energy Dry beans are prized as an energy food because they are an exceptional source of complex carbohydrate, the most efficient source of energy. Complex carbohydrates are digested and absorbed more slowly than simple carbohydrates, so they satisfy hunger over longer periods. Since beans supply both carbohydrate and protein, the 10 Lb. Avg.

Beans supply dietary fiber Beans supply the “roughage” we need to maintain regularity and a healthy digestive tract. Recent studies show that some types of dietary fiber may aid in regulating blood sugar, lowering serum cholesterol, and may help protect against cancer in the intestinal tract. A cup of cooked beans provides half the daily intake of dietary fiber of 35-45 grams as suggested by the National Cancer Institute. Dry beans are an excellent source of vitamins Dry beans are among the richest natural sources of the B-complex vitamins - thiamin, pyridoxine, niacin and folic acid. These vitamins are considered metabolic catalysts, the “spark plugs” of the human machine. They trigger the process that turns food into energy and keeps our digestive and nervous systems healthy. Like vitamins, minerals are essential to the diet. Beans contain many of these important minerals. Iron: Important for building red blood cells which carry oxygen. A cup of cooked beans provides nearly half the amount of iron recommended daily for men and about one quarter the amount recommended for women. Phosphorus: Needed for building strong bones and teeth and for regulating body processes. Potassium: Important for regulating fluid balances, muscle contraction, and needed in the diet of persons on diuretic medication and for whom low-sodium diets have been prescribed. Magnesium: Necessary for building protein, contracting muscles, and conducting nerve impulses. Because dry beans are unprocessed, they are rich in this mineral which is normally lost in the refining of whole grains and cereals. Zinc: Required for growth and repair of body tissues. Dry beans compare favorable with some meats in zinc, making beans an important party of a vegetarian diet. The following recipe for Nine Bean Soup makes 10 gift packages.

Hudson, who left us November 14, 1986. Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow; I am the diamond that glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain; I am the gentle autumn's rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush, Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft star that shines at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there; I did not die. Mother, husband, family. I Wish to express to my neighbors, relatives and friends sincere appreciation for the acts or kindness, prayers, beautiful flowers, cards and food given to me since my return home and also during my stay in the hospital. God bless each and everyone of you. -Mary Hickerson Flint Hill One Call Does It All!

Interview Continued from page B-1 ing when she arrived in the United States nearly three months ago, she did not imagine she would ever say * those words. “Now, I think in English, dream in English and speak in English,” she said with pride, adding speaking her native German is much harder as she must translate from English to German, first. Amid the sounds of the entire world via radio, Juliana was in awe. “It was like a united world in this building,” the young German said, sitting in her Washington home, saying there, people from nations around the world were working together. After a tour of the building and a short film on Voice of America, Juliana sat down for her interview. One important aspect of the interview was her scholarship to the United States, sponsored by the former East German government. This is the first year former East German students have participated in the Youth For Understanding Exchange Program, (YFU), the progam which sponsored Juliana’s visit. She explained the former East German government, working with YFU volunteers, agreed to sponsor 15 students in their exchange year. Thirty-five students from the country arrived in the United States this past year. Juliana said the other 20 students were sponsored by West German families. “Now, of course the former East German government cannot sponsor students next year and the program may, hopefully, get others involved,” she explained. “The radio program will, hopefully, help other students around the world in their decision to make an exchange,” the young girl said, adding the 20-minute interview will be played on-the-air at a later, undecided date. “We talked about life and how it is different, what I do here with friends and family, and places I will visit,” Juliana said, adding the entire interview was conducted in English and will be translated to several different languages before it airs. She said the difference in schools and academics was a major part of the interview. “You can’t compare two such different systems,” the young German said, adding in her native country she learns many facts while here, she learns details and discussion. “I can never remember watching a film in class in Germany,” she said. “ But, here, you do then you discuss it. It’s a new way of learning.” Juliana said a tape of the program will be sent to her Washington home with notification of its air time. Heus Continued from page B-1 plained. That texture, he feels, is “staccato, a smattering of light. This medium allows me to try to capture that — at least.” Mr. Heus’s show, his first in the county since 1985, will be 44 paintings and etchings, mostly done around the county, though a few are scenes of coastal South Carolina. It includes a series of a dozen paintings he has done during the months he has lived in Old Hollow. Those works include the Covington River and various places in and around the hollow. For Mr. Heus, living in Rappahannock County has been a tremendous bounty for his artistic urges. In Old Hollow, for example, “go outside .. . it’s right outside my doorstep.” And during the past week, with the clear fall skies and brilliant sunshine playing against the lush hues of the autumn leaves, “how beautiful it’s been, ... if you’re involved with a visual medium.” Mr. Heus described his painting style as continually evolving, “a contingency. You never stop — it keeps expanding. The more you do the more you see you have to do.” As for his painting, he added, “it speaks for itself — I hope.” Mr. Heus’s show will open at the Rush River Company on Saturday, Nov. 10 with a reception for the artist from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. The show marks the first exhibition at the store by its new owner, Mary Simmons. The paintings will hang through the end of November. Correction In last week’s recipe for Impossible Lasagna Pie, several steps were omitted. After the last paragraph which appeared, the following should have been included: Beat milk, eggs, baking mix, salt and pepper 15 seconds in blender on high or one minute with hand beater or until well blended. Pour into plate. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Return to oven one to two minutes. Cool five minutes. Sprinkle with parsley. Serves six to eight. Real estate course set A new Virginia law requires that all real estate agents, both active and inactive, complete six hours of a state-prescribed continuing education course. The training must be completed prior to the expiration of their current license. Officials of the Real Estate Board in Richmond report that many agents are not aware of this requirement and that they should take action to complete the required six hours as soon as possible. The six hour course covers recent developments in real estate law and related subjects. If the training is not completed prior to the license renewal date, agents will have to complete education and testing requirements the same as a new applicant. The National Institute of Real Estate (NIRE) has announced they will offer the required course at its new Dumfries Education Center at 17207 Jefferson Davis Highway (Rt. 1 and Va. Route 234) on Monday and Wednesday evenings, Nov. 5 and 7, from 7 to 10 p.m., and again on Tuesday, Dec. 18, from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Tuition is $60 for all six hours and group discounts are available. Real estate agents and brokers should register for classes by calling the National Institute at (703) 8930655 or 1-800-277-NIRE. Real estate transactions The following real estate transfers were recorded during the past week: Robert Jerry Brown to Jefferson Homebuilders, Inc. 2.502 acres, Hampton District. $18,000.
