Bald eagle poachers still sought By MARK SCOLFORO Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Authorities have renewed their appeal to the public for information about the malicious killing of two bald eagles near Sperryville two weeks ago. One male and one female eagle, who apparently were a mated pair, were found dumped on a farm near the village of Sperryville, leading to an investigation by the Virginia Game Department’s Enforcement Division and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. A total of $7,000 has been offered as a reward for information leading to the conviction of whoever killed the eagles, which are an endangered species. Virginia Game Warden Jim Bankston, who is investigating, declined to release any additional details of the killings, except to say that he is absolutely certain the birds were killed on purpose and that he knows exactly how they were killed. “They were the first two bald eagles I’d seen in Rappahannock” that had stayed the winter, he said. Other bald eagles have been seen migrating through the county, but the pair was the first to make the county their home. The female eagle had been tagged as part of a West Virginia effort to re-establish bald eagle populations in that state, according to Ed Clark of the Wildlife Center of Virginia. The female was about five years old, the youngest age at which bald eagles can procreate, according to Mr. Bankston. “Unfortunately, they See EAGLES, p.

Postal Service may close in Huntly to save money By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Neva Staff Writer The U. S. Postal Service is likely going to close the Huntly Post Office sometime soon. In April 1989 the Board of Zoning Appeals granted the Postal Service a special use permit to place a temporary trailer for the Post Office in Dorothy Lewis’s front yard. Mrs. Lewis was the former postmaster at Huntly. When she retired she closed the post office that had been in her home. ’ The special use permit for the trailer was supposed to be for one year only. In February 1990 the BZA granted Arland Welch a special use permit to construct a building to be used as a permanent location for the Post Office. Mrs. Welch’s son Dale said he had been approached by the Postal Service to build the Post Office building on his mother’s land. The special use permit specified that the permit was contingent on approval from the Health Department and the Virginia Department of Transportation. It also required that a site plan be submitted before a building permit could be obtained. This past January County AdSee HUNTLY, p. A-8 ' ' --1— / ■ 1 New district would oust Guest, Miller Tom Michie would be county s senator By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newa Stiff Writer J Under redistricting plans now being approved in the General Assembly Rappahannock will no longer be represented by Front Royal Republican Raymond FL “Andy” Guest in the House of Delegates and Harrisonburg Republican Kevin Miller in the State Senate. Most local officials reacted to this news with genuine dismay that Rappahannock will lose Del. Guest’s representation. . [ “I hate to lose Andy as a delegate,” Hampton Disr trict Supervisor Mike Massie said. “He’s been wonderful to us. We’re the smallest county is his district, but' he’? always responded to anything we’ve asked.” Rappahannock will be included in the 31st House District along with the eastern half of Warren County and the southern and central parts of Fauquier County. There is no incumbent living in that area now. In the Senate redistricting Rappahannock is ii> cluded in the 25th Senatorial District with Madison, Greene, Albemarle and Nelson counties and the city of Charlottesville. This district is represented by Demo*crat Thomas J. Michie, Jr. of Charlottesville. Sen. Miller’s 26th Senatorial District will be made up entirely of localities in the Shenandoah Valley. ‘ ! Piedmont District representative Charles K. “Pete” Estes echoed these sentiments. “Andy Guest has royally helped us out on a number of occasions,” he said. “I feel Andy Guest has represented Rappahannock’s interests in the General Assembly to the very best of his abilities. We’ve been fortunate to have someone like him.” Even local Democratic Party chairman Douglas Baumgardner said, “Andy Guest has been an effective delegate for Rappahannock County. I have a lot of respect for him.” See DISTRICT, p. A-3 Spray program goes south but moths are here to stay By MARKSCOLFORO Rappahannock Neva Staff Writer The only spraying for gypsy moths in Rappahannock County this season is being paid for by private landowners since a federal spray program has pulled out of Rappahannock. Last year a few thousand acres in Stonewall-Hawthome District were sprayed under the Appalachian Integrated Pest Management Program, but this year the program has been cut back and the scientists have chosen to focus their efforts further south, near the line of infestation in Greene and Albemarle counties, according to Rappahannock County Adminstrator John McCarthy. The county has never had a cost-share program that would spray for the pests, and last year the federal program was the only way landowners could avoid footing the bill themselves, said Mr. McCarthy. Adding to the always-difficult task of fighting the moths is what Mr. McCarthy terms the “knife in the back”: the decision by Shenandoah National Forest managers to allow the moths to run their course except near campgrounds and along Skyline Drive. As a result, as long as there are moths in the park the wind will be driving them back into Rappahannock. “Locally, gypsy moth infestation is immense, as large as it gets,” said Mr. McCarthy. “It varies from area to area, especially given proximity to the park.” The federal program got mixed reviews last year, depending on which of three methods to combat the moths was used, said Mr. McCarthy. See MOTHS, p. A-5 Schools to offer early retirement to workers Rappahannock joins state program By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Ncwa Staff Writer The Rappahannock School Board voted to participate in the Early Retirement Program adopted by the General Assembly this year and to offer eligible employees the opportunity to sign up for the program by June 30. At Tuesday night’s meeting the board also accepted an employee’s application for early retirement. Transportation supervisor Allie Huff, who announced his retirement earlier this year, also will be eligible for the program, Superintendent David Gangel said. Under the program employees who are at least 50 years old and who have at least 25 years employ ment under the Virginia Retirement System are eligible to retire now and receive credit for an additional five years of work in computing their benefit. They will also receive an additional $100 per month until age 62. Under the regular retirement system an employee had to be 55 years old and have 30 years employment covered by the retirement system to be eligible for full pension rights. The school system will be required to pay additional monies into the retirement system for the next 20 years to pay back the additional retirement the former employees will be receiving. See SCHOOLS, p. A-5 Softball team wins first-ever on new field By MARK SCOLFORO Rappahannock Neva Staff Writer The Rappahannock High girls’ softball team had a memorable week: besides winning two district contests by one-sided scores, they also recorded the first-ever victory on the team’s new field. They beat Stonewall Jackson-Mount Jackson 19-4 Tuesday in a game that was ended after six innings under the district’s “slaughter rule.” Whenever a team is up by 15 runs after the fifth inning, the game is called. On Monday the Lady Panthers travelled to Falls Church to take on district foe George Mason High and won that game too, by a score of 16-5. Together with a loss Friday to Clarke County, the team is 2-3 in the Bull Run District, 2-5 overall. “We have had the lead in four of the five games we’ve lost in the fourth inning,” said coach Renee Leake. “My big word all week was intensity, and I honestly think that intensity can carry us to a lot of victories.” Coach Leake said that this week, at least in the two wins, that intensity was there. Susan Payne, who has pitched every inning of the Lady Panthers’ seven games, got both wins this week. “Susan is holding most teams to about four or five hits,” said Coach Leake. “I think she’s definitely doing her job.” See SOFT, p.

Police activity listed Rappahannock Sheriff John Henry Woodward said the Ben Venue horse races went off without a hitch Saturday. He estimated the crowd at 8,000-10,000 people and about 2,000 cars. Sheriff Woodward also reported the trend in alcohol and DUI offenses continued this week. Over the weekend, he said, troopers and deputies arrested six people on charges of drunk in public and made five driving-under-the-influence charges. “I don’t know why this is happening,” said the sheriff. “I guess springtime has brought out the drunks.” These sibling shepherdchow mixes, a male and a female, are about four months old and very sweet. They and many other adoptable dogs are available at the Rappahannock Animal Shelter in Amissville. The shelter is open from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday and from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. on Saturday. The lost animal registry can be found in the Classified Section of the Rappahannock News. To reach the lost and found registry, or the shelter, call Tracey Clark at 937-3283 or 937-3336. Shelter manager resigns Tracey Clark, manager of the Rappahannock Animal Shelter in Amissville since it opened in November, is leaving at the end of the month. Her husband, Shenandoah National Forest park ranger Steve Clark, is being transfered to New Jersey, Mrs. Clark said this week. “She was great, she got us off to a great start. She was really energetic,” said Kim Novak, vice president of the Rappahannock Animal Welfare League (RAWL). RAWL is advertising for a new shelter manager, and hopes to conduct interviews for the job before Mrs. Clark leaves so that she can help with training, said Ms. Novak. Mrs. Clark said that she enjoyed living and working in Rappahannock. “I definitely loved it. I’m not ready to leave, but you have to go where your career takes you,” she said. Ms. Novak credited Mrs. Clark AN ORDINANCE PROVIDING FOR THE DECENNIAL REAPPORTIONMENT OF ELECTION DISTRICTS IN RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY, VIRGINIA 1.

Judge denies Allison motions; case nears April 29 trial date By MARK SCOLFORO Newa Staff Writer Several pre-trial motions by Kenny Allison’s defense attorney Jonathan Shapiro were denied by U.S. EHstrict Court Judge Claude M. Hilton during a hearing in Alexandria last Friday. Shapiro filed motions in preparation for Alhson’8 trial, starting April Allison, 36, of Washington, Va., and Marshall, and his sister, Thelma Knowlton, of Marshall, are in jail in Alexandria awaiting trial on «ocame distribution and conspiracy and firearms charges. Assistant U.S. Attorney Jay Apperson, the prosecutor, said this week that he expects to call as many as 50 people during the trial, which he said will take about four days. He said there is no indication that either Allison or Mrs. Knowlton intend to plead guilty in the case, as several co-conspirators already have done. Apperson has said that it is the policy of U.S. Attorney Henry Hudson that Allison would have to plea to the “primary” charge and at least one other charge. In Allison’s case, that would be the so-called Kingpin Statute: operating a continuing criminal enterprise employing five or more persons. In Mrs. Knowlton’s case, the primary charge would be conspiracy to distribute five kilograms of more of cocaine. Motions that were denied last week include a motion that the wiretap application, previously unsealed, lacked probable cause to be issued, said Apperson. Another denied motion would have made the government disclose a “bill of particulars” that would have provided the defense with exact dates for the alleged conspiracy, said the prosecutor. Apperson said the defense also challenged and tried to suppress the search warrants for Allison’s two homes, which was also denied by Judge Hilton. The trial of Allison and Mrs. Knowlton will begin at 10 a.m. April Corrections The correct name of the new store opened by Sammy Foster is the Hilltop Sport and Pawn Shop. Also, Jim Marangoni is a member of the Castleton Volunteer Fire Company. And Emily Henry has joined Rainbow-VIP Realty in Warrenton. 29 at the U.S. District Court on Washington Street in Old Town Alexandria. Unlike county Circuit Court, where jury selection often takes half a day or more, Apperson said the jury will be picked within 15 minutes and the trial will begin with opening statements. Apperson said that under federal law the prosecution does not have to reveal who it has subpoenaed before the trial begins. Instead, the court issues blank subpoenas. Also, any exhibits that will be used, including photographs taken from Allison’s home by federal agents during the November raids on his homes, won’t be made public until five days before the trial. Since their names obtained from court documents and published in Arundel Newspapers, both Warrenton real estate agent Jennifer Jackson and Middleburg flower shop o^ifier Sally Bolton have instructed their attorneys to issue statements denying any involvement with Allison’s alleged conspiracy. Asked about their statements, Apperson declined comment, saying only that both women were the subjects of an ongoing investigation. Apperson would not reveal who has been subpoenaed to testify in the case, but it is likely that some of those testifying will be the six persons who have already pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute five kilograms or more of cocaine: Henry Payne, 42, of Washington, Va.; Jimmie Willard Melvin, 40, in prison on cocaine charges; Ronnie Kendrick of Marshall; David Moore of Upperville; Randy Shirkey, 26, of Marshall, and Ian Nicholson, 27, of Marshall. Apperson has stated that two anonymous witnesses have entered “pre-indictment sealed pleas” and agreed to cooperate as a condition of their plea bargains. Allison is charged with conspiracy to distribute five kilograms of more of cocaine, the Kingpin Statute, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, the use of a firearm in a drug trafficking crime, possession with intent to distribute cocaine, distribution of cocaine to a person younger than 18, attempting to employ a person under age 18 to distribute cocaine and money laundering. Mrs. Knowlton is being charged with the same offenses except she is not charged with the Kingpin Statute or with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. District Continued from page A-1 County Administrator John McCarthy said, “It’s a real loss to Rappahannock that we will no longer be served by Andy Guest. He has been a real friend to Rappahannock.” School Superintendent David Gangel said, “Andy has been one who has always listened. I’ve appreciated working with Andy Guest.” Del. Guest himself is furious about the redistricting plan. “Because the Rappahannock News is a family newspaper, you can’t print what I think,” he said. However, he did manage to find a few words to describe the redistricting plan. “I think it’s outrageous, blatant partisan politics, unnecessary, a sleazy plan,” he said. He said the Democratic majority, which developed the plan, showed “a callous disregard for the rights of citizens in the furtherance of their own political agenda.” Del. Guest’s former district included Rappahannock, Warren and Clark counties and parts of Fauquier and Culpeper counties. He now lives in a district made up of the western part of Warren County, parts of Shenandoah, Frederick, and Rockingham counties and all of Page County. First Signs of Spring...

Phoebe Orebaugh, a Republican incumbent, also lives in the new 15th House District. “So, in addition to slicing up the counties, they also have put two incumbents in the same district,” Del. Guest said. “I don’t know if the plan will meet the requirements of the Voting Rights Act,” Del. Guest said. He said in his capacity as leader of the Republicans in the House of Delegates he will seek legal advice on “whether it can be challenged in court.” Del. Guest said he had been told by a senior member of the Democratic leadership that Governor Wilder had agreed that if the House of Delegates approved his budget amendments as a package he would support their proposed redistricting plan. He said two other Democratic delegates corroborated this story. He said he did not know if a similar offer had been made to the Democratic leadership in the State Senate, but “the Senate did not adopt the budget amendments.” “This is the worst side of the political process,” Del. Guest said. ‘To Life support & Rappahannock News Staff Photo/C'indy Mahan FIVE MEMBERS of county rescue squads were recently certified as Cardiac Technicians, and are licensed to provide advanced life support.

Guest described the Senate redistricting plan as “real illegal.” He said the plan is required by the Voting Rights Act to produce as many districts in which minorities have the majority of votes as possible. Census data show that four such senate districts can be drawn, but the plan only includes three. “I doubt either the governor or the Justice Department or the courts will sign off on that,” he said. Del. Guest added, “I’ve enjoyed very much the opportunity to represent Rappahannock County. Over the years I’ve had wonderful support from the people of Rappahannock. This is a sad and unfortunate time.” The open 31st District seat intrigued both local party chairmen. Mr. Baumgardner said he thought the new delegate would probably be from Fauquier County since nearly 46,000 people in Fauquier County will be in the district compared to a few more than 12,000 from Warren Riverside Dining RESTAURANT Built entirely of logs on five riverfront acres, you can listen to the Shenandoah River from our porch and enjoy a spectacular view of the Massanutten Range while you dine on our varied menu.

But he thought the district would be a “community of interests” similar to Rappahannock’s. “In the past our area of the northern Piedmont has been Balkanized to provide filler for valley districts,” he said. Walt Longyear, chairman of the county Republican party, said the open seat might offer an opportunity for someone from Rappahannock to serve in the legislature. “No one has in the past because Del. Guest has been such a strong representative. Maybe we ought to start recruiting candidates,” he said. Most local officials welcomed the change to the new Senate District but were not familiar with Sen. Michie’s record. “This puts us in with counties that are more like Rappahannock,” Mr. Massie said. Mr. Estes said he felt Sen. Miller “well represented Shenandoah Valley interests during the time of his representation of Rappahannock County.” He was concerned, however, that someone “representing a THEE ECD BABY WEEK SALE Thursday to Saturday April 11th-13th 20% OFF All Baby Clothes Infant - 24 months CNIdren sites Infant to 14.

He noted that Sen. Miller showed “skepticism about the exercise by localities of their zoning powers.” He said Sen. Michie “has a track record of listening to local government officials. ” Sen. Miller was busy in committee and caucus meetings and not available for comment. Mr. Longyear said he was concerned that Rappahannock might get lost in a Senate seat that stretched through Nelson County.

Published by the Rappahannock News, a division of Arundel Newspapers, Inc. Member. Audit Bureau of Circulation. Th? Audit Bureau THURSDAY, APRIL 11, 1991 Editorial Recycling About one year ago, Rappahannock residents joined with the rest of the country in celebrating the 20th anniversary of the first Earth Day, and like the rest of the country, resolved that things would be different. The environmental problems facing this county are smaller-scale than most other places, but that does not make them less real or any less urgent. It only makes their solutions a little more practicable. Perhaps the most obvious ecological disaster in the county is the brainless habit of throwing trash from vehicles or the even more puzzling use of illegal dumps. We’d like to think of those as vestiges of the past, but unfortunately that’s only partly true. Although it’s very infrequently used, the county code provides for up to a $1,000 fine and up to 12 months in jail for throwing your trash anywhere except in a trash receptacle or in the Amissville landfill. If you see someone throwing garbage from their vehicle, report the license number to the Sheriff’s Office or the State Police. There’s really no excuse for that kind of senseless abuse of our natural resourses. Recyclers got some good news from the county last month, when after the Fredericksburg-based contractor pulled out of servicing the landfill’s recycling bins the county hired a new firm, out of Charlottesville, which expanded the types of materials it will recycle to include milk-jug plastics and two-liter soda bottles. Tin cans are also now being taken. The down side of that is that the new company will be charging the county a certain amount every month, but that expense will be made up for by lengthening the life of the county landfill. Tin and aluminum cans may be mixed together; magnets separate them at the point of remanufacture. Tin and plastic should be rinsed, but labels need not be removed. The town of Washington has established a progressive recycling system that seems to have achieved a high degree of participation already. On the third Saturdays of every month (April 20 this month), crews pick up separated materials at curbside, and the response has been great. A survey recently undertaken by the town indicated that 30 of 31 respondents were taking advantage of the curbside pickup. In a town of only 188 residents, that’s more than respectable. You could add the Rappahannock News to the list, although we take our recyclables directly to the landfill because of the volume of newspapers we go through. Earth Day brought the myriad of environmental issues to the forefront of many people’s minds. It’s good to see how that one day has effected real change in people’s living habits. mo DOLLARS REWARD FOR THIS FEARLESS BIG GAME HUNTER Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Rappahannock Heritage THE WARM WEATHER this week brought people outside to garden, exercise or just to visit, as Nancy Buntin and Janie Pullin did in Washington. Rain is expected toward the end of the week, however. Letters to the Editor Letters that make sense To the Editor: Finally, letters I can make some sense of. It’s all so obvious, now that Diana Bird has explained it to me in complete sentences. And to think, if she hadn’t traveled to Cambridge, Mass., to learn from nine academicians that war is a calamity, we yokels and rednecks here in the county would be still thinking that war, death, and destruction are good, wholesome things. Dang. We better git them yaller ribbons down. Now we can see that, as Ms. Bird points out, the invasion of Kuwait, the instability in the Gulf, and Saddam Hussein’s deplorable behavior are really our own fault. The poor man is a victim. First we invented him and then we encouraged him. I mean, we even sold him weapons. What else was he to do? I don’t know about you folks, but I feel just awful. Of course I agree that war, any war, represents a failure of diplomacy; that in hindsight any war could theoretically have been avoided, although the appeasers must then be prepared to accept the alternative situation, which might not automatically be better. The Civil War, I’m sure, was unnecessary,. but still I’m glad that the Union was preserved and slavery was eliminated. World War II could have been avoided, I suppose, but I’m glad we put an end to Germany’s extermination of the Jews. Viet Nam I could have done without. I wonder why John Kennedy couldn’t see what he was doing when he sent in the Green Beret “advisers?” He was probably just another one of those guys who loves war. The bottom line is that, while I understand and sympathize with the pacifists, we are well served by the assumption that not every adversary will submit to compromise in every situation, no matter sophisticated our foreign policy. Moreover, I have known many honest, honorable, dedicated Marines and others in the military who are trained to kill, but nevertheless sincerely believe that their service to their country is also working for peace. The police carry pistols and night sticks, but, the L.A.P.D. notwithstanding, their job is to keep the peace. To dismiss their efforts, and those of the military, as nothing more than serving the cause of war and violence, is gratia tious, and does them a grave injustice. I agree with John Stuart Mill, who wrote: “War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature, and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. BILL FITZSIMONS Flint Hill One-world government To the Editor: While the attention of the American people remain riveted on the situation in the Persian Gulf, the administration that sent our troops there is leading our country into socialism, helping to keep communist tyrants in power, and plunging the nation into the clutches of a U.N.-directed, socialist, one-world government. Socialism can be defined as economic control of the people by government, leading to steadily rising taxes, skyrocketing indebtedness, more federal controls and regulations, and a mushrooming bureaucracy. Anyone who fails to realize the daily increase in government power over the individual is fast asleep. If it continues, all of us will soon be slaves of government. Everyone in America should be concerned about the well-being of our troops in battle, everyone also should realize that a major goal of this use of our military is President Bush’s frequently stated desire to reinvigorate the anti-American, anti-God, and pro-communist United Nations and bring about a “New World Order.” Our troops should never be used for such a purpose. The cozying up to Gorbachev, Assad and Deng Xiaoping during the war is bothersome. Why has our government overlooked the USSR’s invasion and destruction of Afghanistan? Why do we sweep under the rug the recent Soviet atrocities in Lithuania and Latvia? Why are we ignoring the long history of terrorism committed by Syria’s Assad? And why is nothing being said about more tribunals in China to deal out harsh punishments to the freedomseeking survivors of the Tiananmen Square massacre? War always means more government; war distracts people from being properly concerned about government’s other activities; and this war might end up bringing about the loss of our national sovereignty to the United Nations that Mr. Bush praises so highly. I urge all Americans to never end their vigilance about all activities of our government. JAMES B. HUTTJR. Warrenton Wonderful debate To the Editor: How wonderful to come home from Rabbinical School for spring break to find that the soul searching and the dialog, so painfully missing in New York, is taking place here in Rappahannock County. In our elevator at the Jewish Theological Seminary there is a poster with a quote from the Talmud: “He who saves a single life, it is as if he saved the world. ” What has happened to us that we choose not to see or to feel the enormity of what our country had done, the lives, and through them the worlds, that our country has destroyed? For every U.S. soldier we lost, our military killed not two or five or 10; but from 500 to 1,000 Iraqis. The numbers alone should give us pause. Yes, Saddam Hussein was, and still is, a terrible problem; but one we should not compound by more violence, by sowing more chaos and bitterness; and by selling still more arms to that troubled region. As Nol Putnam said (March 28 issue), the issue of violence is complex. It derives from many planes. I’d like to mention two. Psychologist John Bradshaw has been drawing our attention to the wounded child probably within each of us. When we learn how to heal the inner child the need to participate in violence dissipates. On a societal plane, the expanding economy - to which every nation in the world is committed - makes both war and planetary pollution inevitable. As long as we work for wages and profits, the economy must expand. If, with a guaranteed income, we were free to work only to benefit each other, or to develop our special vocational talents, the economy would not have to expand. In Rappahannock County there is an unusual number of people who value what they do and how they do it above the dollars they make or the power they acquire. This is the direction we need to go. CARLA THEODORE Woodville Cordani group gives thanks To the Editor The members of the Cordani for Sheriff Campaign Committee express our thanks to the more than 300 county residents who turned out to support our fundraising dinner at the Amissville Fire Hall on April 6. Special thanks also to Eugene and Barbara Daymude, Ginny Pierson and Juanita Marlett for their help in the kitchen and to Gerri Kestner who baked the “official” Cordani for Sheriff sheet cake. JACK ATKINS Chairman KEITH LAMM Treasurer The time machine From the Rappahannock News back when: 20 YEARS AGO April 8, 1971 The annual road hearing was conducted in conjunction with the regular meeting of the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors on Thursday, April 1. Petitions and requests were made by residents concerning secondary roads in the county. Resident Engineer James K. Skeens, James 0. Fitzgerald and Maintenance Supervisor Douglas Bywaters were present to note proceedings. With the arrival of spring, con artists are not far behind. People are warned to beware of anyone offering a service, especially septic tank cleaning and exterminating, and charging an exhorbitant fee when the job is supposedly done. Older people are usually the target of such activities which have already begun in the local area. 15 YEARS AGO April 8, 1976 At the suggestion of James Kilpatrick, Rappahannock’s Board of Supervisors is asking the County Historical Society to help restore historic old names to county roads and highways, which now are known mostly by their state numerical designations. J. Floyd Clatterbuck of Sperryville, better known as Dick, has retired after working with the Virginia Department of Highways for 41 years. He has worked out of the Washington, Va. headquarters and for the past seven years has been in charge of the prison labor force. 10YEARSAGO April 9,1981 The Rappahannock County Garden Club will plant a pink dogwood in memory of Mrs. Hugh Chrisman at the Historical Society Building, Friday, April 10, at 2 p.m. Mr. and Mrs. Howard Holschuh will plant a white dogwood at the same time in memory of their son, Steve. Margie Menefee of the Rappahannock Chapter Future Homemakers of America was a delegate to the sixth annual Leadership Conference held April 2-4 in Richmond. She was among the 500 delegates representing 20,000 members across the state and was accompanied by her advisor, Mrs. Betty B. Wood.

Wakefield students in talented search uver une-uura oi tne current seventh grade class at Wakefield School in Huntly participated in the 12th Annual Center for Talented Youth search sponsored by the Johns Hopkins University. The purpose of the search is to seek seventh grade age students with exceptional mathematical and/or verbal reasoning aptitude and then provide them with a variety of opportunities that challenge the young students to excel. ’ To participate in the search, students must already have scored at the 97th percentile on nationally standardized achievement tests. Students then register to take SAT, which is a test designed for collegebound juniors and seniors in high school. The SAT Test is divided into math and verbal sections. The maximum possible score on each section is 800 for a combined total of 1600. In 1990, the nation wide average for high school juniors taking the SAT was a combined score of 900, the average for the state of Virginia was $94. The Wakefield seventh grade students who participated had a median score of875. In the verbal section, the median score (of 800 possible) for Wakefield students was 446 compared to the national average for college-bound seniors of 424. In the math section, the Wakefield median was 430 and the national average in 1990 was 477. Four Wakefield students earned scores which were among the highest in the state. Lorraine Barrett of Sperryville, Molly Chase of Warrenton, Christina Cheney of Manassas, and Welby Lynn of Washington have all been invited to the awards ceremony to be held at Johns Hopkins. In addition, Jennifer Blount of Middletown, Kirsten Burton ofWarrenton, Suzanne Carrier of Viewtown, Joshua Payne of Jeffersonton, and Scott Racer of Berryville were awarded certificates of distinction^*^ for their outstanding scores. Other participants in the program who received Certificates of Participation were Peter Culley of Summit Point, W.Va., and Luke Zindel of Amissville. In all, 34 percent of the seventh grade class had distinguished scores on the test.

Where Bt (a biological agent) and Gypcheck (a new, organic method) were used the reports were less positive. Mr. McCarthy said there was some private spraying in the town of Washington, a good deal around Red Oak Mountain and some aroiyid Amissville. Mostly, however, private spraying efforts in the county are spotty, he said. He said that if an area is stripped one year, and sprayed the next, the trees will probably be saved. Much of the private spraying goes on in places that were devastated the prior year. The cost of spraying for a private landowner, said Mr. McCarthy, “is incredibly expensive.” He said the county is getting fewer inquiries about spraying this year than last year. The county’s only effort to comat the moths this year consists of offering county residents a list of companies that will do contract spraying for private landowners. “The county makes no recommendations in favor of any of these firms, nor is their presence on the list intended as a license to conduct spraying activities, or a judgment as to their experience, technical qualifications, or fee structure,” according to the county’s document listing them. Those companies, and their phone numbers, are: • Agrotors Helicopter Services, Inc., 717-334-6777. • Cordoba Helicopter Enterprises, 609-448-0031. • Lemar Termite and Pest Control, 703-338-7477. • Loudoun Pest Control, 703-7777050. • Lyttleton Wood, Sperryville, 703-987-8403.

Using these calculations he said it would cost the school system some to participate, but that basically participating “would be a wash.” Dr. Gangel said the General Assembly had adopted the program with the idea that it could save some localities money by having employees retire whose positions would not be filled with new employees. He said that the school system would not be able to take advantage of that because retiring employees will have to be replaced. Dr. Gangel also announced that the Average Daily Membership for March was 947. The March ADM figure is used to compute the state’s contribution to the budget. When the current budget was prepared, it was based on an ADM of 904. Dr. Gangel said he was hoping that the higher figure would increase Rappahannock’s funding, but that cuts announced earlier in the year in sales tax revenue and in basic aid wiped out the gain based on attendance and left the county with $9,000 less in state aid than had been included in the budget. The board voted to authorize Dr. Gangel to seek bids for an aboveground vault and tank for the elementary school’s fuel oil to replace the underground storage tank. Dr. Gangel said there is at least one firm that is building such tanks and selling them on a five-year “lease-purchase” basis. The underground tank must be replaced soon since it will not be possible to insure it against leaks after this year. Mr. Chappell reported that after an incident March 26 when a tractortrailer had nearly skidded into a school bus stopped to unload children on U.S. 522 between Huntly and Chester Gap, he had arranged to have the bus pull off the road for this 8top. He said that letters went out to the four parents who have children getting off at that stop informing them of the change on April 3, and the change took effect April 4. In other action the School Board: • Appointed Beth Gall to teach physical and Earth science at the high school. • Accepted the resignation of David Orth as elementary and high school band instructor. • Approved textbooks for English, social studies and foreign languages. • Accepted the low bid from A&F Associates to audit the activity funds at both schools. • Approved a list of teachers and administrators to be reappointed for next year. At the elementary school Molly Bailey, Betty Ebom, Mary Horvath, Nina Norman, Linda Owings, James and Pamela Roszak, and Amy Wolf received tenure. At the high school Vicki Eastham, Joyce Good-Ewing, Susan Henry, Mike Tupper and Renee Leake received tenure. Bird study course taught by Betsy Thomas this month A bird study course will be given starting on Monday, April 15. The course will consist of three one-hour class sessions on Mondays from 9 a.m.-lO a.m. at the Trinity Episcopal Church in Washington. Alternating with the classes will be three field trips of three hours each to a variety of birding habitats in Rappahannock County and nearby. The course is designed to help with the field identification and enjoyment of Rappahannock County birds, with emphasis on field techniques for seeing birds well. Appropriate springtime bird behavior such as pair-bonding, territory, vocalizations, and migration will be discussed. Betsy Trent Thomas, an omitho logist, will teach the course. She is a recent research associate of the Smithsonian Institution, and a holder of a master’s bander’s permit from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Mrs. Thomas is a field researcher whose principal work has been in avian behavior of South American birds, on which she has published a number of scientific papers. The course is open to both men and women who have an interest in birds. Beginners as well as advanced students are welcome. The group maximum will be 15 and a fee of $25 will cover the classes and field trips. Call Mrs. Thomas to register at 937-5063.

Dancer-choreographers give last in series of 'Exchanges' Three women expand into new dance fogns By LISA CURRIE Rappahannock News Staff Writer Opening to a packed house, three dancer-choregraphers concluded the final part of the “Exchange” series for Ki Theatre last Sunday evening in the Washington Town Hall. Rappahannock’s Sally Nash presented a new group piece for the Rappahannnock stage, “We always spent our summers in Wisconsin,” an autobigoraphical sketch of preadolescent and adolescent summers spent at a summer vacation spot. Another Rappahannock County artist, Sharon Wyrrick, presented a solo-performance, “On the Cutting Room Floor.” This is the third in a three-part series of solo-presentations by the artist and explores material cut from film — or life — and its effect on the remains. The last presentation, by Charlottesville’s Denise Read, was another solo-presentation, entitled “Sea Baby.” Using movement so detailed and precise it portrays slowmotion, Ms. Read gives the story of the baby, though not linear and told by several people at one time. Together, the three dancers and choregraphers captured the audience with dance, theater and sound. With each performance, dance movement became the modifier for text and facial expression, characterization and visual details. “Each performer created outside the realm of tradional dance,” director of Ki Theatre Julie Portman said. “This was beyond the inmobile face and the gracefully mobile body.” Sunday night each graceful mobile body performing for the audience blended body movement with facial expression, creating a new form of dance theatre. Using six dancers to represent family members of the past, Sally Nash’s psychological examination of childhood summers in Wisconsin moved quickly and professionally across the floor. Common childhood preceptions and phrases become qued responses — emphasised as they become chants and verbal misconceptions. “We Always Spent Our Summers In Wisconsin” examines the ability of a family to “articulate” though there remains a terrible “failure to communicate.” Perfecting facial expressions, detailed movement, and phrased chanting, the performers ‘Each performer created outside the realm of traditional dance. This was beyond the immobile face and the gracefully mobile body. ’ — Julie Portman Ki Theatre personified the frustrations and feelings family members represented. Like a haunting drama unfolding with characters molded by dress ana expression, the 15-minute dance captured the audience with detailed movement, quick and necessary expression, and pronounced rhythm embrodiered by the shadows, lurking around the floor-stage. “Try to remember an image from the performance,” Ms. Portman said to the audience, directing them to close their eyes and in reflection to make the image with their hand or hands at the conclusion of the first presentation. The hands of the audience made shapes of various sizes and contours as each “responded to the piece nonjudgementally and non-intellectually, but allowed the audience to speak with the performers in images,” Ms. Portman said. The visual images of Ms. Wyrrick’s “On the Cutting Room Floor” remain in the judgment and intellect after the lights have risen and the floor swept clean of overturned flowerpots, destroyed vegetation, film strands and controversy. Arising to the beauty of flowers, Ms. Wyrrick’s body movements dramatize her gladness then dismay at one baren soil. The shadow of the shears grows larger as the shears go from snipping to destruction. The chanting voices of schoolchildren ring around the darkened room. The swaying movement the dancer creates across the canvas is highlighted by the projection of light and rhythm is established with text moving from casual to near chanting. Her face is surrounded by the ball of light as she discusses the insurance necessities with a frozen fetus; the pounding of her body against the whitened canvas as she pulsates with blood pumping through an artifical heart; her hand reaching toward hope as it SPRINGTIME SALE Thursday to Saturday ‘ 13th April 11th, 12th, & 20% Off Spring Fashions All Winter Items now 70% OFF •VA^^«r-v-YAV>>vrVrWfaMiMflMM^^vx^xAga:A^v^v^^^^v.vAv.v.%v-v:v>x->>x-;v:-ww:w>: The Second Look, inc. 29 South, Madison Va 948-6716 Hours Mon-Sat 10-5 THERE’S NO TRADE-OFF WITH THIS TRADE-IN.

Ms. Wyrrick’s piece uses text and visual technicalities to emphasize the controversial materials she weaves into her performance, leaving the audience to sort the pieces in their mind. “Someone brought up the fact that there was an heightened terror, a sense of unease,” about not just this performance but about the others, Ms. Portman said, referring to the question and answer following the three pieces. “It’s almost black humor,” she said of Ms. Wyrrick’s piece. “It’s odd to talk about insurance necessities to a frozen fetus but that’s the way our society is moving. It’s rather absurd to think of it but only when it’s out of context,” she said. One question that Denise Read asked of the audience during the question-and-answer session was if they needed more information to un derstand her story-dance. Switched from earlier plans, Ms. Read appeared last in the set of three. Darkness was a necessity for the Read dance. Dance does not define the movement Ms. Read makes as she floats across the stage. The haunting sound of the sea and gulls and her near-suspended appearance as she whisped through the curtains captured the audience until they were spellbound — unable to move for fear it would break the spell she wove with the story of her “Sea Baby.” Seeming to move backward and forward within one step, Ms. Read’s petite frame, clothed only in illuminated white, portrayed the illusion of the sea, ebbing and flowing into infinity. The haunting sound of the baby’s murmur against the lyrical sound of the sea and the cry of the gull added to the illusion — only darkness was needed to create the spell of a dream. Telling the story, hearing a story, living a story, she looked lonesome beyond the only visual aspect on stage — an isolated curtainless window'. With such realness, she picks the baby from its place on the sand and hurries back to shore. The feeling of haste and terror holds the audience as she slowly swims across the Town Hall floor. The audience can almost feel the water encase her body, swirling her round upon the sand. With stillness and perfect silence, the audience awaits the end of the tale, not wanting the minute to conclude, the sea to Slow its ebb or the gull to slience its call as wim eacn pan oi tne Exchange, the audience participation was essential for the unity of the program. “There was a period when the performers asked questions of the audience about their work,” Ms. Port man said, adding this interaction between audience and stage “established the dynamics between the two. Someone asked if this period was important to the artist, and the answer was only if the artist believes the audience adds quality to the work in that case, the dialogue is important.” MS walkers MUL2f)k O fxj Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan THREE RAPPAHANNOCK women raised more than $500 for multiple sclerosis during a 15-K walk in Charlottesville Saturday.

Ben Venue races see veteran horses take victories in stride By LOUISA WOODVILLE Arundel Newspapers Staff Writer Unseasonably warm weather challenged runners at the Old Dominion Point-to-Point April 6, but veteran winners Topeador and Alpha Wave took it all in their stride for owners Henry Wood and Leigh Louria. Sanctioned runner Mihmaz with Graham Alcock proved fastest over open hurdles, with Blue Rocket taking his second timber race of the season with Loudoun huntsman Bay Cockbum. Jean Sutula of Leesburg won her first race aboard her mother’s Honey’s Fuel in foxhunters’ timber after Missy Monocacy and Leslie LeGore went off course. Sutula’s horse is trained by her stepfather, Harry Wight. Venture One was an upset victor when he took the Ben Venue ladies’ timber race by 4Vz lengths over favorite Crab Apple, winner this year at the Rappahannock, Warrenton and Piedmont point-to-points. Dawn Dugan put Crab Apple out in front right away, and she continued to widen the distance between her and Charles Town rider Susan Runco on Venture One. Diamontaire, Michele Rouse up, and Reasono with Leigh Louria followed behind. By the third to last Crab Apple had lengthened his advantage to ten lengths, and a turn in the winners’ circle looked like a sure bet for the pair. Then Runco unleashed Venture One up the hill at the second to last, and the Laura Whitney-trained horse was at the last fence first. Crab Apple failed to fire up the hill, and by the stretch Venture One had secured his advantage. “I knew there was no way that they were going to go three miles at that pace,” said Runco, who trains race horses at Charles Town. “I’ve been at the race track all my life — if you don’t know what a 2'/a lick is, you’re out of luck. They were going way too fast — they had to come back.” Runco was aboard Raymond Moffett’s Venture One last fall when they took the Last Chance point-topoint as well. “He was a lot easier to ride this time — he was a real pain at Morven Park,” said Runco. “He was hard to rate, but today he was perfect. He didn’t lug in until the end.” Topeador surprised no one when he took the Old Dominion Hunt Cup, but Brian Fitzgerald’s Dr. Brice impressed the crowd with a late-rushing attempt to catch Wood’s horse, closing up four lengths to one down the stretch. Dr. Brice, however, had to settle for second, with Midnight Moves and Bill Osier third. Wood said the initial pace was faster than he wanted. “Speedy [Smithwick, the trainer] and I had talked about the heat, [to see if] maybe if we could slow it down like we did at Piedmont. But my horse just didn’t want to do it much slower than he went,” he said. “He ran well-in-hand, like he always does,” continued Wood. “I knew the other horse [Dr. Brice] was a length or two behind me, so I kicked out my stick at the next-tolast fence. “When Brian made a move, I asked my horse for a little bit, and he went on nicely,” he said. The Mairhead Carr-trained Nordic Jove crossed the finish first in the first division of maiden hurdles, but jockey Peter Walsh missed a beacon, as did second-place finisher Jimmy Stewart with Graham Alcock. The jockeys’ omissions left Michele Rouse on Complete Rhythm with first-place honors and the Jeremy Gillam-trained Frustrator second. “He’s the nicest ride I’ve had in a long time,” said Rouse about Complete Rhythm, owned by Mede Cahaba Stable and trained by Speedy Smithwick. “She was ready to do another turn at the end. She just motored down that hill.” Barcalaric, a horse owned and trained by grand prix rider Rodney Jenkins and ridden by David Bourke, won the second division of maiden hurdles. Barcalaric took the early lead but was hard-pressed to Whirlpool No-Frost Refrigerator 7T1 • 18.0 cu. ft.

Stefanie’s Dancer jumped the sixth fence awkwardly, giving the advantage to Barcalric. But Worrall got Stephanie’s Dancer up again by the eighth but fell at the last, leaving Bourke to fight it out against Wisp ’0 Wind with Peter Walsh. It was Barcalaric’s win, however, by ten lengths at the wire. “He’s a strong-running horse; He likes to run on the front end. I would have liked to slow down, but Stefanie’s Dancer kept coming up besides him so he just kept picking up the speed a bit more,” said Bourke about his ride. Foxhunters opened the day at noon going 2Vi miles over 14 fences. Though Leslie LeGore on Missy Monocacy crossed the finish first, LeGore missed a beacon, giving Jean Sutula on Honey’s Fuel a fitting 18th birthday present. Honey’s Fuel, a 13-year-old mare, is a horse whom Jean’s mother, Susan Sutula-Wight, used to race in ladies timber. It was the young Sutula’s first win. Sutula, who hunts with Loudoun, is steeped in the sport. “My stepfather is the huntsman and my Mom is a whip,” said Sutula of her family’s involvement. Rambunctious Mickey with Joseph Hardiman of 'Rolling Rock Hunt was officially second, and Trish Clooney on Bugs Maloney third. Leigh Louria and Alpha Wave added five more points to their 12 in the owner-rider hurdles when Alpha Wave took the Big Cobbler by 10 lengths over Tom’s War with Ready Snodgrass. Alpha Wave set the pace throughout the race, leaving Height of Passion and Tom’s War to fight for second at the wire, where Tom’s War prevailed over Height of Passion by a nose. “I let him ride his own race. The horse is a professional race horse. I just go along for the ride,” said Louria, a cook at the Coffee Exchange in Charlottesville.“He ponies for me and cuts the cows,” she said. Graham Alcock piloted Kinross Farm’s Mihmaz to an open hurdle victory over Hot Rodder and Peter Walsh. AlcocK rated the rat Myertrained horse at the back of the 8horse field until the sixth of 13 fences, when he moved up to third. Then, with a quarter of a mile to go, he unleashed him further, zooming to the front and taking the last three fences first. Hot Rodder was second by seven lengths, and Pacific Mail with Neil Morris third. Mihmaz, owned by Kinross Farm and trained by Pat Myer, won two sanctioned races last year with Alcock in the irons. In the novice timber race, Dr. Joe Rogers’ Blue Rocket sailed to the front at the drop of the flag to enjoy a wire-to-wire victory. At one point, though, it looked as though Zohar Ben-Dov might return to the winners’ circle when Peter Walsh got Kinross Farm’s Oakbum up to challenge Blue Rocket. Down the stretch it was a twohorse race, but Blue Rocket sustained his pace to the wire, taking the race by half a length over Oakbum. Quick Print and Patrick Cooney took the last race of the day, giving trainer Doug Fout and owner Beverly Steinman a win.

Local real estate market looking up By LISA CURRIE Rappahannock News Staff Writer Realtors and real estate insiders say the hoped-for economic turnaround seems to have arrived, or at least their industry shows signs of picking up. The turn-around neatly coincides with American Home Week, being observed by the Culpeper Board of Realtors, April 21-27. Offering a bit of the country, a taste of small town Americana and drive from our Nation’s Capital, Rappahannock County real estate offices are joining in the celebration of the American home. From homes snuggled in 157 acres of rolling woodlands to property with waterfalls and gentle slopes at mountain bases, Rappahannock Realtors offer the best of both worlds. Isolating just a few of the pieces on the market today: Eileen M. Day’s listing, “Stonehaven,” a stone, three-story home on 157 acres. Roger Batchelder Real Estate One has listed 20 acres at the foot of Red Oak Mountain, complete with waterfalls. Roy Wheeler Realty Company offers a 70-year-old 10-room home finished with fine oak trim and floors. “Sunny Slope” is surrounded by 63 gently rolling acres of pasture land and orchard space. Things are really picking up, broker and owner of Eileen M. Day Realtors, Mrs. Day, said. “Since about the first of February, things are looking up.” When the cold of winter settled across the nation, American soliders marched to war and recession became a common word with financial analysts. The United States housing market plunged to an all-time low. As spring brings new growth to field and fauna alike, the housing market, a viable financial variable, finds itself budding with new possibilities. “Since the war started, people started to look and buy,” broker Butch Zindel of Buyers Agency in Washington said. “Prices have come down since the recession and are holding their own. This is good for the economy and good for the market” he said. Lord Fairfax offers nature photo class A three-credit nature photography course is being offered by Lord Fairfax Community College at the end of May.

But, not only looking. We have people writing contracts. ’ — Eileen Day Eileen Day Realty Mr. Zindel said in the late 1980s land and home prices saw an increase. “Land prices were about 10 to 15 percent overpriced while homes were about 15 to 30 percent overpriced,” he said. The recession brought things more into perspective. “Residential prices have come down 10 to 15 percent,” Alvin Henry of Mount Vernon Realty in Warrenton said. Mr. Henry spends nearly 70 percent of his time appraising property for sale and resale and is familiar with land and residential values. “Land prices have remained constant,” he said. “Things have really picked up,” he said, explaining that for several months advertisements were going unanswered, but after the first of the year, an advertisement was responded to by three to five clients. “We have people looking and property selling,” he said. Mr. Henry said he anticipates Rappahannock County home assessment values to remain constant or show a slight increase when they are announced in the fall. “Residential property assessment should be up little,” he said, adding farm land value should show a greater increase though still slight. “We have people looking,” Mrs. Day said. “But, not only looking. We have people writing contracts.” She said she has written six contracts since early February. “In the past two years, there was a buying frenzy,” Mrs. Day explained, adding this tended to elevate home prices in the area and create a selling glut. -These inflated prices tended to deter many homebuyers, and James Leake of Sperry ville Realty said this tendency seems to prevail. “Prices are too high and I have people going to Madison and Page counties,” he said. His clients tend to look for acreage and building lots as present homes are so expensive, new homes prices are more resonable. “The prices are on the decline,” he said, but not enough to encourage buying. Once the recession of late fall settled, “buying just stopped,” the 27year-veteran Rappahannock Realtor Mrs. Day said, adding, even though “there is no average” for buying and selling of property in Rappahannock, “this recession was one of the hardest.” “Basically, people here do not have to sell,” she explained, adding, when the property did not move, “it was taken off the market or the price was reduced.” “It was really bad in other places,” she said, adding quite often if a contract written during the recession period was contingent upon the sell of a home elsewhere, it fell through. Now, Eileen M. Day Realtors finds itself busy with finding “second homes” for clients. “There really is not the demand for land,” she said, adding people are looking for new homes or weekend retreats. Long-time Washington Realtor and broker Mr. Batchelder echoed Mrs. Day’s words. “People are looking for homes,” he said, adding, “land is second.” . .Probably half of the people shopping in this area are from the metropolitan area around Washington D.C. with a few older or retired citizens from Fauquier County.9 — Roger Batchelder Realty One “We’ve seen quite an increase,’ he said. Mr. Batchelder said not only are primary homes at the lower end of the financial spectrum selling but those more expensive are as well. Mr. Batchelder said “probally half of the people shopping in this area are from the metropolitan area around Washington D.C. with a few older or retired citizens from Fauquier County” cossing county lines in search of solitude. “One thing that really attracts those buyers is the 25-acre minimum,” he said, adding those looking for space and quiet range in age from young to middle-aged. ‘In the past two years, there was a buying frenzy,' resulting in overpricing. — Eileen Day Eileen Day Realty “We have had a great deal of activity," Jean Lillard, broker and Realtor of Roy Wheeler Realty Co. in Warrenton said. “Activity in the sense that more are responding to advertisments in local newspapers and we have more serious prospects,” she said. Ms. Lillard referred to the latest recession as a “leveling part of the typical real estate market,” adding the “inflated prices of 1987-88” are coming down. “Smart money is investing in real estate,” she said, adding as sure as the prices come down, “prices will go up.” “A smart buy is to take advantage of today’s market,” she said. County farmers can withhold land Farm program participants who underplant their maximum payment acreage for wheat, feed grains upland cotton and rice could receive deficiency payments on the underplanted acres, according to the Rappahannock Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service (ASCS). To qualify forthe payments of up to 92 percent of the maximum payment acreage, farmers should devote all or part of the land to conservation use. ' ’/!

Young baseball squad struggles in three losses By MARK SCOLFORO Rappahannock New* Staff Writer When Rappahannock High baseball coach Mike Tupper watches his team compete against the older, more experienced Bull Run District teams, he sees a lot that’s positive. Unfortunately, the young Panthers have struggled to put the pieces together, losing three district games this week. The baseball team lost Tuesday to Stonewall Jackson-Mount Jackson, 14-6, in a game that was called on account of darkness after six innings. Highlights for the team were catcher Kevin Daymude’s grandslam in the first that gave the Panthers the lead briefly and standout pitching efforts by freshmen Hunter Foster and J.C. Welch. “The highlights of our team right now are my ninth-graders. We don’t have a JV program right now, so to pitch these guys against seniors is a real test,” said Coach Tupper. Second baseman Justin Ferrence, another underclassman, is leading the team at the plate, batting about .400, said the coach. Against George Mason Monday, the Panthers lost 11-1, and other loses have come against Strasburg, 16-9; to Page, 14-5; and on Friday to Clark, 18-5. “We just haven’t been able to hold a lead or to deal with not getting down on ourselves early,” said Coach Tupper. “Fielding has been OK, but that’s where we need our work,” said Coach Tupper. The team plays at Brentsville Friday and away at Central Monday and at Strasburg Wednesday. The baseball team’s record is now 1-5 overall, 0-4 in the district.

They really killed about 20 over the life of the pair,” which is about how many the pair might have hatched. Mr. Bankston said he has “searched and searched” for a possible nest that might have included any eaglets. Nesting sites for eagles are higher-elevation ridges, rock formations and large pines. He said the eaglets, if left unattended, would have died several weeks ago. However, he and other scientists have concluded that the birds most likely did not have a nest. Mr. Bankston was the last person known to have seen the birds, which were sighted in the F.T. Valley all winter. He most recently tried to photograph the pair at the end of February. The Game Department has not come up with any solid leads on the killings, but Mr. Bankston said there are theories. “We have other things to do, and we don’t have much to go on right now,” he said. “We have theories and we’re working on those. There’s no concrete evidence yet. The only way we’re going to do anything is if someone comes forward” with information about the killings, he said. Mr. Clark said, “The only people we’re hearing from right now are media. The case has attracted national attention; Fox News picked it up. A lot of people know about it.” Mr. Clark, whose office is in Weyer’s Cave, is a native of Rappahannock, having grown up in Flint Hill. He said that at the Ben Venue races last weekend the eagles were the subject of much concern. “The question people are asking me uniformly is, ‘Why would anyone do something like that?’ There are as many reasons as there are people committing crimes, none of which are acceptable,” said Mr. Clark. He called whoever killed the birds “beneath contempt” and “undeserving of our sympathy. The penalties are severe, but that was a serious crime against the community.” Killing or in any way harming a bald eagle is prohibited under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act, the Endangered Species Ac? and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, as well as some state laws. Conviction brings fines up to $25,000 on each count as well as jaQ time. Because they feed primarily on fish, most of Virginia’s 300-plus bald eagles live in the Tidewater area? where the rivers are wider. 2 Mr. Clark said that when crime$ such as the bald eagles’ killing arg discovered, they are sometimes considered “folksy mischief.” However? he said, “You can’t just buy anothefi bald eagle. What has been stolefg from the people of Rappahannock and Madison counties can’t be re^ placed.” * Z Anyone with information abou£ the killings should contact Mrr Bankston at the Rappahannock Sheriffs Office, 675-3332 or the Viiw ginia Department of Game and In? land Fisheries at 800-237-5712; Anyone wishing to add to the re« ward should call the Wildlife Center of Virginia at 703-234-9453. Informal tion will be kept confidential. * Most bald eagles in Virginia reside along tidal rivers near the Chesapeake Bay. The pair found in Rappahannock is thought to be the same pair seen periodically through out the winter along the eastern slopes of the Blue Ridge. Mr. Clark said there are abou& 120 nests and a population of300-50(1 in Virginia. * Eagles feed primarily on fish£ though they will supplement their diet with carrion. The large gray and white birds stand 24-30 inches tall and have a wing span of more thaff six feet. The male and female eaglesr weighed approximately eight and ten pounds, respectively. The wide use of DDT throughout the United States during the 1940» and 1950s contaminated many food sources upon which bald eagles de» pended. ? The insecticide caused egg shelf thinning in bald eagles and other birds.

He suggested Mr. McCarthy contact Delores Tokasz of his office if he had further questions. Mr. McCarthy spoke with Ms. Tokasz and received a letter from her dated Jan. 21 requesting another one-year extension of the special use permit. Her letter said her division “had undergone a management change and budget review process. Before the new manager of the Northern Virginia Division will authorize the expenditure of funds for any new building a review of the area plan is being performed by his staff,” the letter continued. At the February BZA meeting the board approved the one-year extension, but required that progress be shown within six months. Mr. Welch said he had a letter saying everything had been put on hold.

Dreams, light combine in performance piece By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newi Staff Writer A large and enthusiastic audience attended Laurie Marshall’s multi-media “Dreaming and the Pursuit of Light” Saturday evening. The production at The Theatre at Washington involving modern dance performed by Ms. Marshall and members of the Sunday Dreamers singing: Tutt Harris, Carol Lucking, Dancing Reed, and Chris White. The performance, including a slide show of Ms. Marshall’s visual art, was a benefit for Save the Children. It was followed by a procession to the Middle Street Gallery for the opening of her show of oil paintings that were inspired by dreams. The first part was an “opening prayer,” a dance by five women stretching and yearning upwards, followed by a circle dance with tugging and pulling while Ms. Marshall intoned, “In the beginning there was light.” Slide images of the earth in space were projected on curtains behind the dancers. This was followed by a dream of Ms. Marshall’s father Stanley Marshall, in which he found himself holding light in his hands and found a river of light and gave his light to the river. This segment was titled “Returning the Gift” and ended with the singing of “Happy Birthday” for Mr. Marshall, who was not able to be present for the performance. At the gallery is a portrait of Ms. Marshall’s father, and the portrait opens to reveal three more paintings. In the middle is a picture of him giving the light to the river. On either side are smaller pictures of him holding the light in his hands. The next segment was one of several based on Native American tradition. It was a dance about a hunter preparing for the hunt and then calling a deer. The deer first runs and then returns choosing to give its life “to sustain the life of the hunter.” The group then sang the old Shaker hymn, “ Tis a Gift to be Simple.” That was followed by “The Dream of Five Moons.” In this dream Ms. Marshall was riding in the back seat of a car. She saw another moon smash into Earth’s moon, creating five moons. She saw a stag who told her, “Humans must learn from the animals. Animals and people are sisters and brothers.” Then came a segment on a dream of Nan Reddick’s. In this dream she was driving an invisible sports car and just managed to stop it before hitting a stag, who then blew her a kiss. The next portion was supposed to be a true story from ‘The Education of Little Tree,” by Forrest Carter. Little Tree’s grandfather Brown Hawk told of the time when the a band of Cherokees were living in the Great Smokey Mountains in North Carolina. They had hidden in the mountains to escape the removal to Oklahoma, known as “The Trail of Tears.” A group of lumbermen were going to cut down the white oaks in the forest. At night the Indians would dig up their logging road. By day the lumbermen would repair it. The lumbermen posted guards. But the Indians would find an unguarded section and dig it up. The Indians were becoming weary. An oak fell, smashing the lumbermen’s wagon and killing two mules. The lumbermen gave up the effort and the Indians danced in celebration. According to the story the oak was healthy and should not have gone over. The oak gave its life to save the other trees. r LAURIE MARSHALL This was followed by “The Angel Dream.” In this dream Ms. Marshall was in the elementary school. A storm was brewing and everyone rushed outside to look at the clouds. There in the clouds was a substitute teacher, an angel, who told them, ‘To each of you new powers will be revealed.” They went inside where the floor was buckling, and from the floor an unborn rabbit and unborn frog rose up to become new teachers teaching the ability to fly. At the gallery are paintings of the substitute teacher as an angel and the buckling floor with the rabbit and tadpole emerging. The description of this dream was followed by the singing of “May the Circle Be Unbroken,” which continued through the next segment, a tape of Blanche Doss Kennedy (who is the great aunt of Ms. Marshall’s husband, Rex Slack), telling what she expects in Heaven. “Life on Earth is just the beginning. Afterwards we keep giving,” she said. The next segment was based on an Eskimo story of a hunter, following a group of blue whales that were being chased by killer whales. One old whale turned and swam toward the Orcas, “giving himself as a gift.” The singing of the hymn continued while images of Michaelangelo’s “Pieta” appeared amidst scenes of destruction and images of the earth in space. This was followed by “The Devil Dream.” Ms. Marshall and her husband were in a hotel lobby and “evil incarnate had come to claim a soul.” An elderly man came out struggling with ~ two suitcases. He fell face-down on the floor. Ms Marshall and her husband put their hands on his back and “The devil disappeared. Evil cannot live in the face of love.” Next came a dance “Transformation of Evil,” based on a Yaqui Indian ritual performed at Easter. At the end the dancers were joined by many children and some of their parents. They sang “Step by Step,” a union song, ’ and continued that out of the theater and to the gallery. There the paintings showed many scenes from the dreams. Projected on the curtains at the theater, the images weren’t clear. At the gallery they were, and most powerful of all was a painting, “Mother, here is your son.” The Plains' Grace Church calls for art contestants Grace Episcopal Church in The Plains will hold its 44th annual Neighborhood Art Show May 10-12.

Yet, even as the sun shines, a fine mist of rain continues to fall. Then, magically, the reflection of the sun upon the rain transforms each drop into a prism of color. As if painted by the Master’s hand, storm clouds are replaced by a rainbow. There is an old cliche which tells us that “into each life some rain must fall.” Yet the radiance of God's merciful love allows us to change the rain into rainbows, brightly colored by faith, hope and trust in Him who made us. 1 John:5 assures us that “. . . God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.” Let the light of God's love deliver you from darkness into the light as you worship Him in His house this week.

People love potatoes By HELEN W. SMITH Home Extension Agent There’s no vegetable like them. Potatoes are the hearty part of the menu, solid and satisfying. They’re the anchor food. The Irish potato is high in solids, cooks up fluffy and light, never watery or waxy. The oval somewhat flattened shape makes the ideal baking potato, famous ‘round the world. For main dishes, side dishes, meal stretchers, casseroles, these are the potatoes that do the job best. And do you know how good potatoes are for you? And how modest in calories? If you’ve heard that potatoes are high in calories, it’s just another old wives’ tale. The truth is that there are only 90 calories in a five-ounce Idaho baked potato, and 63 calories in one-half cup potatoes mashed with milk. In other words, it has about the same calories as a large apple or less than a half cup serving of cottage cheese. HOME ECONOMICS , Don’t forget the potato tuber is the plant’s energy storage tank which gives you an idea of the energy it has for you. A five-ounce Idaho baked potato baked in the skin has about the same amount of vitamin C as in one-half cup of tomato juice. Potatoes contain no fat or cholesterol, only a trace of sodium, and lots of dietary fiber and potassium. Simply put, potatoes give you an excellent nutritional return for the calories. Types of potatoes: Basically, potatoes can be divided into two categories, waxy potatoes, and mealy potatoes. Mealy potatoes have a dry, crumbly texture. In other words, they crumble or fall apart when you cook them. Russet potatoes are a mealy potato. They are commonly used in restaurant operations for baking and for making mashed potatoes. Because of their texture and oblong shape, they are also the potato of choice for french fries. Waxy potatoes, on the other hand, are moister in texture and retain their shape when they are cooked. Round red potatoes and long white potatoes would fall under this category. If the shape of the potato is important to the success of your recipes (i.e. scalloped potatoes, sal * Prices in this ad good Monday, April 8, thru Sunday, April 14, 1991.

Round white potatoes, a very common variety of potato found in the U.S. is considered an all-purpose potato. They’re suitable for baking, boiling, mashing, frying, just about any way you can imagine er\joying potatoes. New spuds on the block: Several specialty varieties of potatoes are finding their way into the supermarket produce section. One of the most common is the yellowfleshed potato. You may be seeing yellow-fleshed potatoes marketed under such names as Yukon Gold, Finnish or Bungie. Whatever the name, however, yellow-fleshed potatoes are not a new variety. As a matter of fact, they’ve been common throughout Continental Europe for hundreds of years. Why are whitefleshed potatoes so common in the U.S. then? Because we were introduced to potatoes primarily by English and Irish settlers who grew white-fleshed potatoes in their homelands. Another variety popping up in the supermarket is blue-skinned, blue-fleshed potatoes. First developed in South America, a small number of U.S. farmers are now growing this specialty variety. They vary in color from a soft greyish blue to a brilliant purple color. These blue potatoes have a stronger, slightly nutter taste and are excellent for steaming or microwaving. Just for the fun of it, you might want to try an au gratin recipe using blue potatoes and a hint of blue cheese. Blue potatoes are marketed under such names as All Blue, Peruvian Blue or Delta Blue. The Blue Shetland potato has a purple skin and a creamcolored flesh. The following recipes use Irish potatoes or potato products. Try them in your spring menus.

I miss you Just as much today as 1 did when you first left. Last Sunday was Easter Sunday and as we did the last Sunday you were here, we went to Sunrise Service at Hopewell Baptist Church. As 1 sat there with tearflUed eyes, 1 could see your face filled with pride and hear your voice say 'AMEN' In agreement with the minister's message. 1 remembered that evening when you said to me, "You know, one day that boy Is going to be a preacher". Yes, Dad that boy (Forrest) was the minister in the pulpit. 1 longed so much for you to hear his message. Maybe you did. We all miss you so much. Dad. LovcYal!
