Mrs. Fletcher: 102 and still going strong By MARKSCOLFORO : PnwMhnnmmlt M.-,. Qt „ pf 11', One of the first childhood memories that Martha Ball Fletcher has is of riding to Sperryville on horseback as a 4year-old girl from her family home in the F.T. Valley. The horse bucked and threw her into the creek on a chilly morning, leaving her shivering and seared. That story, perhaps not exactly fascinating on the face of it, takes on a new dimension when you consider that it happened 98 years ago. Mrs. Fletcher, “Mattie Ball” to her countless friends and neighbors in Rappahannock, will celebrate her 108rd birthday on Nov. 23 this year. She’s the kind of lady who makes you think See FLETCHER, p.A-e School budget proposal supported at hearing By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer The School Board’s $4.4 million budget was supported by the few people who came out for the public hearing on it last Wednesday. Superintendent David Gangel said in putting the budget together he had set as his goals “to continue to provide quality service even in a poor fiscal year, to continue improvements and to reduce the local share of the budget by $150,000.” He said that under the proposed budget Spanish would be added at the high school, cooperative learning would be emphasized as a teaching strategy, and whole language would be extended to “second and third grade. He said the school system also hoped to continue to improve through partnerships with the Potomac Edison Company and Xerox. “This budget is not my first choice,” hel said. “We had to make choices to keep the integrity of the program. This is a bare bones budget. If the unexpected happens, there are very few contingencies,” he added. He noted that the budget includes an increase in the supplement for those with master’s degrees from $1,500 to $1,800 for teachers and from $500 to $1,000 for administrators. He said the teachers’ salary schedule also had been modified. “In past years we tried to work on the front of the schedule, and we are much more competitive than we were,” he said. “Now we gave the most attention to the upper end of the salary schedule.” He said if more money became available he would like to use it for repair and replaceSee SCHOOL, p.

Miller reinstated as county's rep in Va. Senate By JEFF NELSON Arundel Newapapen State Writer The Virginia Senate, in a contentious four-hour debate Tuesday, returned Sen. Kevin Miller of Harrisonburg to Rappahannock County after earlier plans had moved Rappahannock to a district represented by Thomas Michie of Charlottesville. Sen. Miller will represent all of Rappahannock County as well as central and southern Fauquier and Warrenton. Sen. Miller’s district extends south and west to Harrisonburg. Sen. William Tru ban’s district (R-Woodstock) will emcompass northern Fauquier an$ include all of Warren and Clarke counties. Sen. Truban’s new district remains unchanged from its present lines, except for an exchange of precincts in Fauquier County with Sen. Miller, he said. The Senate’s first plan was vetoed by Gov. Wilder because it created only three black-mqjority districts. The plan Gov. Wilder wants will have a shot at creating See SENATE, p. A-3 County districts nearly redrawn Review reveals old flaw By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Two Jackson District voters and the Rappahannock County Registrar were the only members of the public to attend the public hearing on redistricting plans. The Board of Supervisors adopted Plan One and voted to send it to the U.S. Department of Justice for approval. Under this plan voters in Stonewall-Hawthorn District who live west of Route 231 and north of Route 707 will vote in Piedmont District this fall. Voters who live south and east of routes 729 and 610 in Jackson District will vote in Stonewall-Hawthorn District. And a few voters in Piedmont District, who live between the Covington River and Routes 622 and 621 near The Shade, will be voting in Hampton District. In drafting the ordinance to change the voting districts, Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke found that the written description of the current districts does not match those shown on the current highway maps in See DISTRICT, p.

Langer wins Fodderstack By LISAG. CURRIE Rappahannock New* SUIT Writer Braving the heat, more than 200 runners and walkers surged forward at the sound of the shot, beginning the 13th Annual Fodderstack 10-K Classic last Saturday morning. While no records were broken, Falls Church’s Greg Langer led the pack with a time of 36:03, a full minute ahead of the next finisher. “This is the first time I’ve ever run this course,” the 28-year-old runner said. “It’s a good run and a tough course, but it’s fair,” he said, receiving his trophy for first in the open category for men. Close behind Langer was Charlottesville’s Donal Day, son of local Realtor Eileen M. Day. The 41-year-old runner finished his first, course on the Fodderstack Road in 37:17. “I’ve been running for a long time,” he said, adding in other years, races in Charlottesville have prevented his participation in this race. “I really enjoyed it,” he said. Finishing just seconds behind Day was Annapolis’s Mike van Beuren, with a time of 37:37. “This is the first time I’ve ever done this course,” he said. “It’s fantastic. It’s one of the most beautiful courses I’ve ever run,” the 38-year-old avid runner said, adding he has participated in runs from East to West coasts, in Bermuda and in several well-known marathons.

Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Bank vice president and head cashier Mary L. Payne welcomes new CEO John Conry. Rappahannock National Bank names John Conry new CEO John Conry Jr., 48, was named Executive Vice President and Chief Executive Officer by the directors of Rappahannock National Bank this week. Mr. Corny, a career banker who most recently was vice president of CorEast Savings Bank in Richmond, began work in Washington last Tuesday. He said that the Rappahannock National Bank job was just what he was looking for: an independent, community bank. “It’s a very community-oriented bank. It’s goals are to serve the people of the Rappahannock County area and the directors believe very strongly in that philosophy. He has been a banker for 25 years, many of them “in a community bank environment.” He holds a bachelor’s degree in business administration with a banking and investment rmyor from Kent State University. In 1975 Mr. Conry received the professional designation Certified Commercial Lender, and he attended the American Bankers Association’s commercial lendinggraduate school at Oklahoma University. Local banks, said Mr. Conry, “can serve the local constituency better. We take the people’s depos* its and loan it out locally. ” Mr. Conry is living “in various motels” in preparation for moving permanently to Rappahannock. “Everywhere you look is some kind of bucolic scene up here you can’t believe. Coming from a metropolitan environment, you really appreciate the clean air.” He has already attended a meeting of the Rappahannock Lions Club, which he called “a super experience. I met some wonderful people at the meeting and I thoroughly enjoyed it.” He encouraged bank customers and all county residents to stop by and introduce themselves to him at the bank on Gay Street in Washington. “I’m delighted to be here and become part of the Rappahannock County community. One of my main goals is to get out in the community and call upon you folks,” he said. Mr. Conry has two children attending Louisiana State University. Rappahannock National had filled his job with temporary CEOs previous to hiring Mr. Conry. He was informed about the opening through a consulting firm in Richmond that has done work for the bank, he said. His banking career has included being president and CEO of community banks in Biloxi, Miss; Pensa cola, Fla.; and Springfield, Ohio. He has also been employed by the U.S. Department of the Treasury in the bank examination division. He has been active in community and civic affairs, including the Chamber of Commerce, Rotary, and the United Way. Senate Continued from page A-1 five black-majority districts. The new plan also makes Fauquier County whole again in the senate. Fauquier had been split into three districts that extended from Interstate 81 to the Chesapeake Bay under a plan that was vetoed by Gov. Wilder two weeks ago. The new plan also removes one of two new Senate districts created in Northern Virginia in the plan vetoed by Gov. Wilder, a fact that has Northern Virginia legislators angry. The issue is the population in each district. The plan adopted yesterday puts many Northern Virginia districts right at the limit of population extremes allowed by the courts. b Mother's Day Specials c.oco-moss la oasKet, wmre ' with scroll details, rust free.

Of two captured, one was to be hanged. Willis was offered chaplain’s exemption but refused to doom his companion, a married man ‘with five children!’ Professing his Christian readiness to die, he prayed for his executioners.” Chaplain Willis’s body is buried in the comer of the small cemetery back of the Flint Hill Baptist Church (erected 1854, closed 1968) on U.S. 522. A small headstone marks the grave and a lovely, but faded, picket fence, built by the Rappahannock County Scout troop about 20 years ago, is still standing. The 10- and 11-year-old girls from the Sunday School class of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (the Mormons) in Front Royal decided such a local hero deserved a living memorial. The girls received the help of their teachers and donated services of Judy Woodsworth, Front Royal Garden Club president. Children’s Organization president Lisa Sessions, who painted along with the girls, said: “We encourage our children to be aware of their community ties and find ways to give back and make them better. Chaplain Willis died as he lived: loving others. We all need such heroes and it is wonderful to acknowledge and remember him.” Those present for the painting project last weekend were: Jessie Harrison, Katherine Pierce, Jenny German, Susie Peachey, Rachel Glaettli, Julie Hamilton, Laura Yates, and teachers Rosalie Lysaght and Rosemary Yates. Restoration of Confederate soldier’s grave in Flint Hill was a Sunday School project.

Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation The Audit Bureau THURSDAY, MAY 2, 1991 Census The Census Bureau recently released more tabulations of information from the 1990 Census of Population and Housing for Virginia. It marked the second major release of 1990 census data - the first was redistricting data. State highlights from the tabulations include: • Virginia’s 1990 population reached 6,187,358 persons - 51 percent of whom were female. • Median age was 32.6 years. • Eleven percent of the state’s population was 65 years old and over. • Households averaged 2.61 persons in 1990. • Median value of all housing units was $91,000. Information from the tape, as well as other census data, will be distributed through the Virginia State Data Center. This network consists of the Virginia Employment Commission, Center for Public Service at the University of Virginia, the state’s twenty-one planning district commissions, and the Virginia State Library and Archives. Census results will be pored over during the coming decade as demographers and other social scientists try to come to a better understanding of who we are and how we’ve changed. The Census, willed to us by our forefathers, truly is democracy at its best. Kids' project A group of Rappahannock boys were recently thanked for a project some readers participated in and one we think all should know about. Jeremy Slack of Washington received a letter last month from Millard Fuller of Habitat for Humanity in Americus, Ga. Jeremy and his fellow Pack 123 Cub Scouts, with help from leader Mike Dunigan, collected $154 from handmade wooden donation boxes they placed around Rappahannock. They sent the proceeds in to the international group. “I know that God is very pleased with what you and the fellow members of your pack have done,” wrote Mr. Fuller. “The Bible tells us to love one another, and that love must be expressed in very specific and concrete ways. You have surely expressed your love and concern in a beautiful way and what you have done is so deeply appreciated by all of us at Habitat for Humanity.” To those well-chosen words we add our own congratulations to Jeremy and the other Cougar Cub Scouts.

Elmer Jenkins. It was approximately 20 years ago that I first went to the old Jenkins Garage before the dual lane highway was constructed through Amissville. When I first met Elmer, he greeted me with his familiar, “can I help you,” and he did! He did not know me from Adam, but nevertheless he made me feel like he had known me for years. As time went on, and I got to know Elmer and his family, I found out what a fine human being he was. His quote, “can I help you,” was part of his daily life. Helping everyone anywhere he could, he never questioned you as to “are you going to pay for this” or “what am I getting in return.” Anytime Elmer’s name was mentioned in any conversation around the county it was with great fondness for him. On the day that Elmer was laid to rest on the beautiful knoll on his farm, everyone spoke about the enormous loss to this community. It is truly a loss for us all, but I would like to think that Elmer’s contributions and selflessness have made this a better community in which to live. Thank you, Elmer. We’ll miss you. May we all live up to your role model! EMIEL K. SMET Amissville Support Lions' benefit auction To the Editor: The Lions Club is a group of community-minded men and women who pool our talents in behalf of local' needs.

MAYBELLE GILKEY County Chairman Heartfelt appreciation To the Editor “Home is where the heart is.” Trite but true. Evidence of this has appeared recently in your paper’s “Letters to the Editor” section. This, combined with the photograph of the multiple sclerosis walkers, only exemplifies the support and love given to my family and myself by many unsung Rappahannock folks. We all need to give of ourselves. It doesn’t cost a dime, but the rewards are enormous. My thanks to so many. SAMVANNEMAN Culpeper Your share of America To the Editor Bill FitzSimons (March 11) seems to have absorbed various propaganda lines. He ought to try a little history. For instance, the War Between the States was not fought over the issue of slavery and did not “end” it. George Bush and his cronies (masters?), the CIA, promoted the Iraq/Kuwait massacre for a number of reasons, but “freedom” was pretty far down on their list. Those folks manipulate politics and emotions to further their secret agendas. Lincoln did that as well, and his policies created race problems for over 100 years that could have largely been avoided. What will stir up in the Mid-East and for how long is anybody’s guess. But we act like this because we are only semi-civilized. What kind of culture can you expect from a bunch of semi-barbarians? Look around —* you got it! And we become civilized only to the extent that we recognize and begin to live out our positions as children in God’s family. Destiny provides that some day everyone on the planet will be won to this truth, providing a divinely loving social environment from the womb to “translation” into children of light when death has been overcome ... a thoughtful world! Along the way, however, someday the United States will have to turn its sovereignty over to an international federal body - a representative, planetary government holding all war-making powers - or expand our union to include every nation as a state. The United Nations, however, is not such a body as presently organized. This is the only way to ensure political peace on Earth. It’s not illegal to move forward in social destiny, is it? What’s your share of America (plus GNP) worth, anyway? PETER B. HOLLEY Boston, Va. The time machine From the Rappahannock News back when: 20 YEARS AGO April 29, 1971 Emory C.

Allison Continued from page A-1 —»-— lison Knowlton, entered guilty pleas on Monday morning to conspiracy to distribute five or more kilograms of cocaine and the use of a firearm in a drug trafficking offense. Allison himself also pleaded guilty to two charges before testimony began: two counts of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. He is on trial for the “Kingpin Statute,” operating an ongoing criminal enterprise employing five or more persons. He also faces charges of conspiracy to distribute five or more kilograms of cocaine, two counts of the use of a firearm in a drug trafficking offense, attempting to employ a person under age 18 to distribute cocaine and eight counts of money laundering. Testimony during the first two days included the following: Henry Payne, 42, of Washington, Va., who was the “caretaker” of Allison’s second home in the Harris Hollow area of Rappahannock County, testified that five kilograms came through the house within one week and was buried on a neighbor’s property nearby. He told the six-man, eight-woman federal jury that Allison also distributed heroin, which he called “Mexican Mud.” Payne said he first met Allison while Allison was building his “cabin” home in Marshall. He testified that Allison would reward him and others working on the cabin with cocaine. Payne is among several people who testified this week that Allison would “front” them (supply them and expect a pay-back) quantities of cocaine, usually priced between $1,600 and $2,000 per ounce, on a regular basis. Payne told the court he also purchased two firearms from Wolf Mountain Traders in Washington, Va., for Allison. Allison was convicted of felonious assault 10 years ago in Loudoun County and therefore cannot own firearms. Payne said that his friendship with Allison was rocky at times. He said Allison would “get strong in his speech towards me once in a while . . . and beat me up one night when I was drunk.” He also alleged that Allison “once put a shotgun up to me.” In opening statements, Assistant U.S. Attorney Jay Apperson told the jury that “it was always party time with his lines of cocaine” at Allison’s homes in Ada (near Marshall) and Rappahannock. He charged that Allison provided cocaine to his then-underage daughter Angela “on a regular basis.” Defense attorney Jonathan Shapiro said the government was basing its case, in part, “on the word of an acknowledged liar.” Allison, said Shapiro, “does not deny” that he has ever seen, used bought “or even distributed” cocaine. He said Allison was not a “godfather” figure in the drug ring, but that “many people have been involved in cocaine in this neck of the woods for many years.” He said those who have already pleaded guilty and were going to testify “aren’t the lieutenants of a drug family,” and that some of the witnesses “aren’t credible,” and that a number of them “have significant drug problems.” First to testify were Marshall residents Randy Shirkey, Ronnie Kendrick, David Moore and Ian Nicholson, all of whom entered guilty pleas last month to conspiracy to distribute five kilograms or more of cocaine. They each told basically the same story: that Allison would front them ounces of cocaine and they would pay him or his brother, Jerry Allison, or Thelma Allison Knowlton when they had sold it. Arthur “Junior" Pullen Jr., formerly of Amiss ville, was next to testify. He said that he has not been charged yet, but told the jury he anticipates being charged in state court at some point for related cocaine offenses. He said he would purchase ounces from Allison at the Rappahannock house, and sometimes from Henry Payne. Payne was next on the stand, followed by Wayne Leonard of Sperryville. In 1982, said Leonard, Allison first talked to him about selling cocaine. Allison told him, testified Leonard, “sell and keep your mouth shut.” Leonard has entered pre-indictment sealed plea with the court, and has been cooperating with the prosecution, according to Apperson. Allison’s brother, Jerry Allison, has also entered a sealed plea, the prosecutor revealed Monday. Jerry Allison is expected to testify Wednesday or Thursday.

CURRIE Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Ada Alexander has found shopkeeping at Boston Store a bit more than what she bargained for. Just over two weeks ago, The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) found “a trace of gasoline or some subastance in the side of the creekbank,” Mrs. Alexander said. The store fronts U.S. 522, south, sitting high atop the hill. The State Water Control Board has requested Boston Store gasoline tanks be pressurized — a test performed to determine if the tanks leak. Mrs. Alexander rents the store and gasoline tanks from Boston Store owner and retired proporitor Hilda Winkler. “It was just a trace,” she said, adding the substance found could have been from a vehicle over the bridge, from when days when oil was poured on the roads to keep dust and dirt from blowing, or from several other sources. “Just because I have gasoline, they blame me,” she said, explaining the door of the store is nearly 1,000 feet from the finding. “They found it the last day of construction on the bridge,” just below the intersection of Route 707 and U.S. 522. ‘This has really put a worry on me and Mrs. Winkler,” the storekeeper said. “It’s been a terrible two weeks.” The VDOT office notified Mrs. Alexander of the “trace” found and the State Water Control Board notified her of the need for a pressurized test on her three-year-old tanks and pumps within seven days. “I missed the first deadline,” she said with exasperation ringing in her voice. “I just could not get information. There is no one around this area that tests tanks and I was at a loss trying to get answers,” she said. After securing a company from ‘This has really put a worry on me and Mrs. Winkler. Its been a terrible two weeks.' — Ada Alexander Boston Store Richmond to perform a May 2 pressurization test, the results are sent to the State Water Control Board. Meanwhile, the family waits for a decision on the findings. Boston Store has two 1,000-gallon three-year old number three tanks. “These are supposed to be good for 20 years,” Mrs. Alexander said, adding she did not know if a soil test was completed when the tanks were replaced three years ago. Just 18 months ago, Mrs. Alexander and her daughter and son-inlaw took over the business in the store. “We love this business,” she said of her store, filled with everything from videos and craft goods to fresh deli items and dog food. Gasoline was an extra that encouraged customers. “We have not even pumped gasoline since the first of the year,” she said, adding the internment of gasoline at Boston Store had nothing to do with the “trace found by the highway department.” Anderson Oil Company Inc. of Fredericksburg delivered gasoline to the tanks when Alexander took over as shopkeeper 18 months ago. Due to less demand and rising cost, the company stopped servicing Culpeper area, including Boston Store. For sometime after Anderson ceased services, Alexander’s tanks were serviced by Southern States. “They wanted be to purchase the tanks and the pumps,” Mrs. Alexander said, outlining reasons the company terminated delivery to her Boston Store. “I just could not afford that and expect to see any return,” she said. Since January, the Mrs. Alezander said she has contacted several gasoline supply companies to no avail. “I guess these tanks are not worth their effort,” she said. With all the pressure of the newly found “trace,” Mrs. Alexander has given gasoline pumping little thought. “I’m worried to death,” she said of the situation, though she feels “gasoline is necessary out here. It’s too far for people to go for gasoline for their lawnmowers.” While the Alexanders rent the store and the tanks from owner Hilda Winkler, who still lives on store premises, Mrs. Alexander does not know who is responsible for a clean-up if one is required. “They said if no leak is found, then that is the end of the whole ordeal,” Mrs. Alexander said, adding she prays for a quick solution. “When I came into this business, I heard a little rumor of the tank problem and I tried to get information from gas companies all around,” Mrs. Alexander said, referring to the 1989 law concerning the removal and replacement of underground storage tanks. Now, Mrs. Alexander faces extreme cost. “I talk in nickels and dimes and these people talk in millions of dollars,” she said of the cost involved with the leak. Pressurization of the two tanks will cost over $1,000. Clean-up, if a leak is found, could cost hundreds of thousands. ®bc &appat)annocb iletos offers FAX MACHINE SERVICES To send information: Any U.S. destination $5.00-first sheet $2.00-each additional sheet To receive fax information: $4.00-first sheet $1.00 each additional sheet )t Happafjannocb ilrtos Main St. Washington, VA. 703/675-3338 Fax: 675-3088 MOUNTAIN TRAIT RIDE and BEEF BAR - BQ Saturday, May 18th, 10 a. m.

Softball team wins two to claim fourth place In Bull Run District softball and baseball, coming in fourth in the regular season means getting the final tournament slot and a chance at going further in the state playoffs. The Rappahannock High girls softball team beat district foes Central 5-4 and Manassas Park 6-4 to improve their record to 6-6 overall, 6-4 in the district. Going into Tuesday night’s game against Clarke the Lady Panthers were alone in fourth place behind Page (11-1), Strasburg (9-2) and Clarke (7-3). In the Central game last Wednesday, Heidi Maeyer hit a double and a single, scoring the winning run in the fifth inning on Marsha Freeman’s RBI single. In a defensive contest the Lady Panthers only collected four hits to Central’s five, but they capitalized when runners were on base, said Coach Renee Leake. Against Manassas Park Friday, Angela Pullen went 3-for-4 at the plate and had three RBIs. Emma Swatman was 2-for-3 with one RBI. The Lady Panthers play Central away on Wednesday and George Mason at home on Friday at 5 p.m. Leading hitters for the team so Baseball season opens The Rappahannock Athletic Association began play this week.

Her record is 6-6. Baseball splits two contests The Rappahannock High boys baseball team lost a close game to Central last week then rebounded to beat Manassas Park 7-2 for their third win of the season. Against Central the Panthers were leading 7-6 going into the top of the seventh behind the pitching of freshman Hunter Foster. Four defensive errors later and Central had won, 10-7. One highlight: junior catcher Kevin Daymude clocked a two-RBI home run, continuing his team-leading hitting pace. On Friday the other freshman pitcher, J.C. Welch, went the distance in collecting the win for the Panthers. Rappahannock jumped out to a five-run lead in the first inning and never looked back. Welch had seven strikeouts and threw only 99 pitches the whole game. “He threw strikes and he threw a lot of ground balls,” said Coach Mike Tupper. Some outstanding defensive play saved the win, said Coach Tupper. They play at Central Wednesday and home against George Mason at 5 p.m. Friday. Track squad has off meet The Rappahannock High track team finished third in tri-meet against George Mason and Central at Central last Wednesday. Only freshman runner Sherri Thomas could muster a first-place finish, winning the mile with a time of 6:34. Scoring for the Panther boys were Chris Stringfellow, third in the shot; Jeremy Tole, third in the 100 hurdles and fourth in the 300 hurdles; Matt Eidson, second in the mile and third in the two-mile; and Randy Earley, who was fourth in the 800 meters. For the girls, eighth-grader Jessica Arnold was third in the mile, Ane Zorrecheta was fourth in the 300 hurdles and Amber Earley was third in the 400.

If you ask her, she credits her family. Others have made it into their 90s, she says, but none as far as she. Her father was Aylette Hawes Buckner and her mother “a Burt from Talladega.” She grew up “a mile up in the mountains” outside Sperryville as “a real mountaineer” in “an old stone house.” Going back a few years from then, she counts as direct ancestors Charles Washington, George’s brother. Her greatgrandfather married Martha Dandridge, President Washington’s grand-niece. As a girl she attended private schools, including one in Front Royal. Pressed for the name of the “academy” in Front Royal; Mrs. Fletcher demonstrates her legendary sense of humor. “I don’t know what it was called. You might find someone who kept better records but I don’t know if you’ll find anyone much older.” She was married at age 21 to Judge William Meade Fletcher, a U.Va. Law School graduate who taught law for a few years at the University of Chicago. Judge Fletcher wrote “Fletcher on Corporations,” among other legal texts. They lived for about 10 years in Richmond while he was with the State Corporation Commission, then settled permanently at Thornton Hill Farm. He practiced law and continued to do research and write in Sperryville until his death in 1943. She raised two children, then more when her daughter passed away. Her son, J.W. “Jim BUI” Fletcher, now lives at Thornton Hill Farm, Mrs. Fletcher having moved to a home on Main Street in Washington 25 years ago. He followed his father into the legal profession, as have two of his chUdren. Nowadays Mrs. Fletcher is weU looked-after and her biggest worry seems to be who wUl put in her garden this spring. “I’m trying to get it done. Somebody’s promised to do it,” she said. An avid gardener and cook, her recipes were even featured in Gourmet magazine and “An American Folklife Cookbook.” After an hour-or-so of conversation, a visitor prepares to leave, but not before Mrs. Fletcher graciously tells him to stop back by soon. It will be a pleasure. Shed applicant rejected By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Neva Staff Writer The Board of Zoning Appeals denied Roy and Betty Thomas’s application for a variance from side yard setback requirements to build a 24 by 24 foot storage shed on their property in Old Hollow. According to the zoning ordinance, to qualify for a variance the applicants must demonstrate that denial would constitute a hardship “approaching confiscation.” Their two-acre property is in an agricultural zone, and side yard setbacks are supposed to be a minimum of 50 feet in that zone. The Thomases requested that the minimum be reduced to 15 feet. They wanted the closer setback so the shed would not block the view of their house and to make the building closer to the road for their handicapped son to get on the school bus. However, the Thomases are living on William and Linda Dietel’s farm outside Flint Hill, not on their property in Old Hollow. Their 15year-old son, who has muscular dystrophy, uses a motorized wheelchair. “You could be staying at the Dietels until the school issue is over,” member Sid Gottlieb said. “I’m par tial to helping the handicapped, but there is uncertainty whether this would ever be used for that. How much of a hardship would we be alleviating by granting the variance?” After deciding unanimously that they could not make the finding that the variance was necessary to alleviate hardship, the BZA members told the Thomases they could build a smaller shed, no higher than 10 feet, without having to meet the setback requirement. The BZA voted to approve a special use permit for Don and Mary Neilsen to build a kennel with up to 15 runs to hold up to 30 schipperkes on a 25-acre parcel near Huntly that the Neilsens have contracted to buy from Alfredo Pestana.

This plan calls for the county to add $7,484 to the upcoming county budget for its share of the costs of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District and for recycling services. The plan was prepared for the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District Commission. PD-9 contracted with Dewberry and Davis to prepare a plan for Fauquier, Madison, Orange and Rappahannock Counties and the towns in them. The town of Culpeper was also included in the plan, but Culpeper County was not. County Administrator John McCarthy said the county and town will be able to amend the plan, but must adopt it or write their own by July 1. One potential benefit to the county will be in recycling rather than burning brush and construction debris. The plan calls for PD 9 to purchase a “tub grinder” to shred wood waste to be used as mulch. The tub grinder could be moved from landfill to landfill within the Plan rung District to shred wood on site. In meeting the state mandate that 10 percent of trash be recycled by December 31 this year, 15 percent by December 1993 and 25 percent by 1995, mulched wood would counts as recycled, but incinerated wood trash does not. The firm that prepared the plan assumes that Rappahannock County’s trash is typical of trash in northern Virginia. Typical trash in the area is 1.8 percent aluminum, 8.6 percent glass, 10.5 percent newsprint, 6.3 percent corrugated cardboard, 23.3 percent other paper, 19.2 percent yard waste, 4.0 percent ferrous metals, and 18,3 percent other. The plan would require Rappahannock to reduce the total waste by 10 percent by the year 2011. This would mean that the rate would be reduced from 5.31 pounds per person per day to 4.78 pounds. This is to be done by persuading homeowners to leave grass clippings on the lawn and compost leaves and other backyard trash. Mr. McCarthy said very little of Rappahannock’s trash is yard waste. Most Rappahannock households already are following these practices. So no appreciable reduction in trash can come from this. That does mean, however, that it is likely a higher than average percentage of Rappahannock’s trash is paper, cans, glass and recyclable plastic, he suggested. The plan calls for Rappahannock to increase recycling by developing a second drop-off point for recyclables near the town of Washington by next spring. The county’s Capital Improvement Plan called for a place where residents could take ordinary trash and recyclables to be located between Sperryville and Washington to be ready to replace the dumpster sites at Huntly and Scrabble when the contract with Community Trash to service the dumpsters expires. This center would be manned when it is open and locked otherwise, so trash from out of county could not be dropped off and hazardous material could not be left. There is little control of such things currently at the dumpster sites because they are available to the public 24 hours per day. However, no funds for such a center are included in the proposed budget, which covers the 1992 fiscal year from this July through next June. The solid waste management plan also recommends that the county purchase a scale to weigh trucks bringing trash to the landfill. The cost of such a scale and scale house is estimated at $64,000 plus $12,000 for a computer and program to handle data on different types of trash collected and recycled. District Continued from page A-1 one place. The written description says the dividing line between Hampton and Piedmont districts north of U.S. 211 is a surveyed line from the edge of the Shenandoah Park to the Covington River bridge at Rediviva. The highway department map shows the line east of that point. Registrar Nancy Leake said the people involved were registered in Hampton District, following the description not the map, and the supervisors decided to keep the description and to ask that the map be changed to conform with the written description. That line was not changed by the current redistricting. Mrs. Leake will not send out notices telling those voters whose voting place has been changed of the change until after the Justice Department has approved the plan, but she will begin the process of indentifying who those voters are.

Family vineyard growing old, growing grapes (despite deer) By LISA G. CURRIE Rappahannock Neva Staff Writer (Editor’s note: This is the final installment in a three-part series on wineries and vineyards in Rappahannock County.) Snuggled into the countryside along Route 647, outside Flint Hill, is Farfelu. .Owned by Charles “Chuck” Raney, it’s one of Rappahannock County’s oldest vineyards. It is also the county’s first farm winery. Mr. Raney carefully attaches labels to bottles of a dry white picnic wine, made and bottled in his bamtumed-winery — for a special order. “We are a small winery,” his wife Jinnie Raney said, wiping the sticky glue from the bottle as she helped him label bottles. “We sell most of our wines right here, at the winery,” she said, setting the bottle aside. “Maybe some are sold in stores, but we don’t market it that way,” she said. The long bam — about 130 years old — is built into the hill behind it. Over the years, the Raneys have converted the cool earthen building into a winery. In the back of the bam, grapes are fed into an overhead shoot, dropped into the presser and later sent to storage tanks or holding tanks. In the comer, under the hill, the Raneys have put in a cold storage area, nearly complete, to store grapes and aging wine. The tasting room and small storeroom act as a foyer, with Raney’s own laboratory off one side. The bam was extended in this area, windows removed and insulated to be kept cool. Beyond the laboratory is the labeling room. Nearly all the work is manual. The farm-winery is found fourand-one-half miles from Flint Hill. The red gate and sign invite curious guests to tours of the hillbam winery and into the tasting room at any time. “Just call to make sure we are here,” Mr. Raney said from his laboratory. The retired United Airlines pilot moved to the county in 1967 and planted his first vines up hill and down across the vast expanse of his property. Hence, the name Farfelu. “It’s an archaic French word that means strange or peculiar,” Mr. Raney said, explaining he always liked the word. “Besides, it was coincidental.” He added at the time, 16 years ago, You write down every move you make with the wine. What you did, how you did it and what was the temperature.' — Charles Raney Farfelu Vineyards “that’s what people called us. What were we going to do with all these grapevines.” " The vines bear grapes and therefore wine — an example of one of Virginia’s fastest growing industries right here in Rappahannock. His are some of the oldest vines in the county, the older the vine the more desireable as the vine winters better, becomes less susceptible to disease and the sugar and acid content stabilizes. His first grapes were made into wine in 1975. “It is a family business, mostly,” Mrs. Raney said, adding that while the Raney children grew up, their help was vital for the care vineyards require and production demands. “Now, we use teenagers for pruning and other management works,” she explained, adding when harvest arrives the Raney family hosts a “harvest party. We invite our friends to help.” The family harvests six or seven types of grapes each year — providing the local deer do not harvest the grapes first. “It’s so discouraging,” Mrs. Raney said. Last year the deer “harvested” 85 percent of the chardonnay grapes and 90 percent of the cayuga. “You work just as hard for a crop that produces as for one that does not produce,” Mrs. Raney said. Six-foot-tall electric deer fences are in the making around the seven acres of grapes. “We just don’t want to compete with the deer,” she said with a smile. The Raney winery produces a variety of wines — from the dry white or red picnic wine to aged chancellors or chardonnay. “The trick is to do it right each and every time,” he explained, adding ledgers and journals are kept so each step is documented. “You write down every move you Colette R.

Many wines age for a year in a barrel, for several more months after bottling and then maybe months on a shelf. “Some wines — like my dry red and white picnic wines — are ready to drink six to eight months later,” he said.

School Continued from page A-1 ment of equipment, a category in the budget that was sharply cut. “Eventually things do break,” he said. School Board Chairman Beverly Massie said the board had given primary consideration to the needs of the children. “A lot of things were cut out,” she said. “We can’t burden the whole county with all the things we feel are necessary for education.” She said personnel had been shifted so “we have portions of people in various educational programs. We have brought a very conservative budget. It is not only tight; it is gasping in areas.” Mrs. Massie said that in past years she had assured the Board of Supervisors that if the budget were approved, the School Board would not come back later in the year asking for more money. “I wish I could again give that assurance, but this year I can’t,” she said. r She reminded the supervisors that they needed to start looking for another piece of property to purchase for a middle school. Teacher Helen LaCava said the superintendent’s budget is “the best example of fiscal responsibility.” She said all the staff had been involved in finding ways to cut the budget. “We all had to prioritize our needs and wishes for next year.” Mrs. LaCava said, -“Despite the fact that things are tough, there is an enormous sense of optimism in Rappahannock.” She cited the new library and plans for new churches as evidence that “people are optimistic about Rappahannock. We do the best we can,” she said. ‘We’re going more than that.” Elementary school assistant principal Raye Tucker said she was speaking as a former student in the school system and as a parent of children who would be graduating in 16 and 18 years. She said she and her husband had found “There’s been nothing but improvement since we graduated. We are gratified by the improvement in 15 years and thank you for your role in that.” Greg Robertson, a parent of children starting in the school system, said the superintendent’s budget is a “creative act of responsibility. It’s resourceful and frugal. I urge you to adopt the budget.” Supervisor Chairman Hubert Gilkey closed the public hearing when there were no more people wanting to comment and asked if board members had any questions. Hampton District representative Mike Massie reminded Dr. Gan gel that he had said the schools might be getting an additional $9,311. County Administrator John McCarthy asked to comment. “I have spent only marginally less time than Dr. Gangel on the budget,” he said. “I would be the first in line to say the budget is frugal and responsible. There is not another Board of Supervisors in the Commonwealth that has had a better response from its school administration and board.” He said, “The problem comes from the state’s unwillingness and inability to deal with its own, for the purpose of providing the governor with the aura of fiscal responsibility.” Don’t weight anymore.

The supervisors finished the meeting with a work session on the budgets of constitutional officers. They were to meet again this Wednesday to adopt the school budget and hold a work session on the budgets of other agencies.

Runners Continued from page A-1 With an opeh bid for the coveted Eva Smith Memorial trophys — beautifully designed ginger jars crafted by Merrill Strange of Viewtown — 18-year-old Matt Eidson took home his first. A 12-year veteran to the race, Eidson said he was surprised that he earned the trophy. “I just ran like I always do,” he said, adding he followed fellow Rappahannock runner John Borgens most of the race. “I just sprinted past him at the end,” the youth said. Eidson finished the race with a time of 39:21. Merrill Strange was awarded one of her own trophies, taking the Eva Smith Memorial for women. “I have done this every year,” the 42-year old runner said. “And, I ran the whole way,” she said with pride, finishing with a time Moveable feast Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan * Kerri and Stephen Wagner serve the first course at the Moveable Feast last weekend, which was sponsored by the county bed and breakfast association. of 52:09. “I’ve done that every year too.” Leading the women from Flint Hill was Alexandria’s Terry Sweitzer.

Gold Cup * » S By LOUISA WOODVILLE Arundel Newipapen Stuff Writer Fair weather is expected for Saturday’s 66th running of the Virginia Gold Cup and a scheduled -natchup of the nation’s top three timber horses, including Fat Chance Farm’s Tom Bob attempting a historic backto-back win from the Maryland Hunt Cup last weekend with rider Sanna Neilson. Race officials said tickets will be available at area ticket outlets through Saturday morning but that no tickets will be sold at the gates on race day, May 4. Up to 50,000 race fans are expected. The featured four-mile Gold Cup timber classic, sponsored by BMW, is expected to provide one of the most riveting races in its long history. Heading the field of 12 horses for a purse of $35,000 will be three of this year’s top winners over the big post-and-rail fences: the undefeated Dr. Blase, who has won four races out of four starts this year under jockey Colvin “Greg” Ryan; 1990 Timber Horse of the Year Joe’s O.K., who won the International Gold Cup and the Maryland and Pennsylvania Hunt Cups, and Tom Bob, who only last Saturday won the four-mile Maryland Hunt Cup. The last horse to win the Hunt Cup and Gold Cup back to back on successive weekends was the great Billy Barton in 1926. No Hunt Cup winner has even attempted the feat since 1942 when Blockade, a son of Man O’ War, was killed at the 17th fence in the Gold Cup. The Virgnia Gold Cup heads a seven-race card of timber and brush races for a total of $120,000 in purses at the Great Meadow course near The Plains. • Gates will open at 10 a.m. for pre-race events.

It is scheduled for two hours, starting at 4 p.m., in the Theatre at Washington, Va. “This area has so much to offer visitors. In addition to its natural beauty, we have a thriving arts community and offer wonderful country hospitality. It’s time to learn more about how to get the word out to a larger audience,” said Nancy Thomasson, FTA board member. The seminar will focus on product/service “positioning,” media relations, special events, partnership building and direct mail. Participants will receive a detailed “howto” kit to enable them to target and personalize their efforts. “The great news about public relations is that it requires creativity* selling skills and follow-through -» but it’s not expensive. A little goes ft long way, because messages are amplified through the media,” said Ms. Hartz. Advance registration is required. The registration fee is $20 for FTA members, $30 for non-members.

For over one hundred years, the telephone has transformed the invisible energy produced by our voice into an intelligible form of communication. Whether we phone next door or around the world, we expect to make that connection. Now let us consider another invisible, more ethereal form of communication. . . prayer. Each time we come to God with faith and the acceptance of His will, we should expect to connect with Him, our Source of all that is wise and good. Mark 11:24 confirms this as we read. . . “Though I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them and they shall be granted you.” What an incredible impact prayer can have upon each day of our lives! As we worship God this week, may we remember to thank Him for the divine communication of prayer which is truly the ultimate connection.

If you didn’t make it out to the Opening-Day ceremony for the season’s youth baseball Saturday you missed a great time. It was the largest crowd to date I’ve seen. Rappahannock Athletic Association (RAA) president Jerry Brown welcomed the ball players, family, friends, all the fans, and community leaders. United Methodist Pastor Peter Weems delivered the invocation, praying that all the games be conducted in an atmosphere of fun and fairness. A since of real pride and hush came over the crowd as Jon Heddleston sang the National Anthem followed by the release of red, white, and blue balloons as “Old Glory” waved gently in the morning breeze. Accolades were given to many who helped the dream become a reality. Special recognition was given to Mrs. May Belle “Mickey” Stuart for donation of the property for use by the ball teams. (Unable to attend, Mrs. Stuart will be presented with a videotape of the event.) Also, special thanks was given to the Ruritan Club for their support. Club president Buddy Samuels expressed his gratitude to so many young people who don’t need drugs but instead are learning good character traits through the spirit of friendly competition, molding them into fine leaders of tomorrow. (With most area kids involved in baseball it’s no wonder AmissviUe area enjoys an almost crime-free reputation.) So many area residents donate countless time and energy to make baseball a success. Mr. Brown also gave special thanks to all the coaches and board members. Henry Diggs and Billy Paolicelli were applauded for building the concession stand. Cheryl Diggs was praised for her many years of fundraising, Lorraine Early for her many years as Treasurer. (Also, John and Lorraine Early were praised for their work in establishing and sponsoring the baseball teams some 15 years ago.) Ernie Deal was presented with an inscribed sign to be hung at the field for his many years of maintaining the fields. (He is president of I-Deal Lawn Service.) J.B. Himmer was recognized for her work on registration and publicity. Mr. Brown also announced that a father’s softball game will be held at Stuart Field on May 11 (during craft show.)

To play, call Chele Hardin, 347-1959 or Connie Dowell, 825-5529.

Handle fresh spinach carefully when preparing By HELEN W. SMITH B——Wnock Newt Contributin* Writer It’s springtime and time for fresh spinach to pop up in your garden. Fresh spinach is delicate, so treat it gently to retain its flavor and texture. Remember that spinach wilts easily and shouldn’t be washed until just before it’s used. The easiest way to prepare the leaves is to dunk them in lukewarm water, then blot with paper towels. Never let leaves stay in water long because they become limp and flavorless. Cook quickly to preserve nutrients Cooking spinach quickly preserves its color and quality as well as valuable nutrients - vitamin A, vitamin C, and iron. Although the body can’t use iron from plants as easily as iron from meats, you can get more benefit from iron in spinach and other plants by serving them with a food high in vitamin C such as orange juice or a tomato. home economics Spinach recipes Besides being nutritious, fresh, tender spinach is tasty, too. Try some of these recipes when the spinach pops up in your garden this spring!

GE believes that when a thermal fuse used in certain GE drip coffeemakers fails to function as intended, the units could overheat and pose a potential fire hazard. GE has received approximately 400 reports of coffeemakers overheating. In some instances the coffeemakers caught fire, and there have been serious injuries, and allegations of substantial property damage and a few deaths. Consumers may call 1-800-4439000 to confirm whether their drip coffeemaker is being recalled and, if necessary, to receive a prepaid mailing package to aid in returning the product. Consumers are offered $10 as a “thank you” for returning the old coffeemakers. “Consumers will need to give GE the catalog No. and Three Digit No. off the plug,” according to Ellen Mustoe (675-3888).
