JUL1991 ' \ xpansion committee issues report By MARKSCOLFORO Rappahannock N*wi Staff Writer The Inn at Little Washington embarks on a new chapter in its already colorful history following the release of a 13-page report by the Citizen’s Advisory Committee on The Inn’s planned expansion. The committee report includes results of a survey of 122 people who work, live or own property in the town of Washington as well as recommendations to both The Inn and the Town Council about the project. “The majority of persons surveyed were ‘concerned’ about The Inn’s proposal and favored moderate, sensitive expansion. ‘Balance,’ ‘scale,’ ‘compatibility,’ ‘appropriateness,’ ‘in character,’ and the like were expression recurring in responses” to the survey, according to the committee’s report. x The 10-member committee took about 14 months to complete its survey and report, releasing it late last week. “The report ends up being very broad and very balanced and I’m delighted it’s achieved the kind of objectivity we wanted to get out of the process,” said committee chairman Jim Thomasson. Other committee members were Joyce Kramer, Dr. Werner Krebser, See INN, p. A-5 Court asked to prevent Wakefield's eviction By MARKSCOLFORO Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer Both sides were waiting to hear the decision by 20th Judicial Circuit Judge Thomas Horne late Monday after a two-hour hearing Friday in which the Board of Directors for Wakefield School requested a temporary restraining order to keep Clydetta Lynn from evicting them. Judge Home heard arguments Friday from lawyer Glen Sedam, representing the board, and attorneys for Clydetta Lynn, Pamela Lynn and William Beeton Jr. Pamela Lynn co-founded Wakefield School in Huntly with her late husband, Dr. William Lynn Jr., almost 20 years ago. Following his death two years ago Pamela Lynn served as acting headmaster. She conveyed control of the school to the independent Board of Directors in Spring 1990, at which time Dr. Alan Saunders was hired as the school’s president (equivalent to the old post of headmaster). Pamela Lynn taught seventh grade this year, and served as vice president for curric ulum until January, when she was stripped of that authority. Clydetta Lynn, the late Dr. Lynn Jr.’s mother, signed over the deed to the school and about seven acres to Educo, a trust administered by Warrenton attorneys William Bassett and Robert Miller, on April 26, 1989, prior to the selection of the current Board of Directors, * But the deed has never been recorded, and Clydetta Lynn acted to evict the school from what she maintains is still her property effective July 1. To stop the eviction, Mr. Sedam filed the injunction late last week, leading to the hearing on Friday at noon in the Rappahannock County Courthouse. Judge Horne said he would mail his decision to the two sides on Monday, but at presstime that decision was still unknown. Together with the request for an injunction, Mr. Sedam also filed an affidavit by H. Lynn Hopewell of Warrenton, chairman of See WAKEFIELD, p. A-6 Building fees increased 15 percent hike now covers costs By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Neva SUIT Writer The Board of Supervisors voted to increase building permit fees at their meeting Monday afternoon. The basic rate of nine cents per square foot for houses was increased to 10 cents. Also fees for electrical, plumbing, and heating and air-conditioning inspections were increased from $15 per unit to $30. A new fee of $25 was adopted for temporary occupancy permits. Fees for industrial, commercial, and institutional properties were also increased from 12 cents per square foot to 15 cents. Also fees for such inspections as plumbing and electrical for these properties were increased from $25 to $50 per unit. The board had asked County Administrator John McCarthy to propose a fee schedule that would increase income from fees by 15 percent to make the building office self-supporting. Mr. McCarthy said these new fees would accomplish that goal if applications picked up. A proposed fee of $100 for a permit to move a structure, an increase from the current rate of $25 was amended to leave the rate at $25 for small buildings and increase it to $100 for buildings with more than 500 square feet. The fee for renewing a building permit when construction is not completed in six months was increased from $15 to $25, See SUPERVISORS, p.

JOHNSON and JEFF NELSON Arundel Newspapers Staff Writers U.S. Rep. D. French Slaughter Jr., R-7th Dist., announced Monday that he will resign from Congress because of poor health. “While it has been a great privilege and honor to serve, I have reluctantly concluded that the recent impairment to my health prevents me from continuing my service,” Mr. Slaughter wrote in a letter dated July 1 to Virginia Gov. L. Douglas Wilder. Slaughter's Washington office confirmed reports Monday that Mr. Slaughter, 66, has been diagnosed as having recently suffered from a series of mildly debilitating strokes. The major effect of the strokes has been to reduce the four-term congressman’s ability to articulate, according to the release. The resignation will take effect Nov. 5, allowing Gov. Wilder time to call a special election for the Seventh District to coincide with the general elections already scheduled for that day. By law, interim members of Congress may not be appointed but must be elected in a special election. Mr. Slaughter, whose district includes all of Fauquier County, said that he will have no trouble representing the district until November, according to Carter Comick, See SLAUGHTER, p. A-3 Broker markets fruit from Washington office By LISA G. CURRIE Bappahannock New* 8taff Writer (Editor’s note: This is the fourth and final installment in a series on marketing farm produce in Rappahannock.) There are apple fanners in Woodville, peach growers in Sperryville and blueberry producers in Amissville. Their market is usually local, extending beyond the county borders to Northern Virginia, Maryland and even Pennsylvania. These growers are businessmen, knowledgable about their product, forecasting what consumers want, meeting needs and selling at competitive rates. James “Jimmy” DeBergh of Washington, owner of Haoris Hollow Frozen Fruits, is the businessman first, then the knowledgable agriculturist — He is a fruit broker. He does not grow fruit. He does not manage a farm that produces fruit. Jimmy DeBergh sells fruit. “Sorta like a real estate broker,” he said of his work. “I buy fruit from growers, sell it to major companies looking for that fruit,” he said. While most business is done in the office via telephone calls, facsimile machines and computers, Mr. DeBergh said his business only flourishes due to complete and comprehensive knowledge of his business — fruit.

BMW, tractor collide Two women were injured when their car struck a farm tractor on U.S. 211, one mile west of Route 622, at 1:10 p.m. June 28, according to Sgt. G.A. Morris of the State Police. Gertrude Fouse, 72, of Culpeper, was operating a 1989 BMW eastbound on U.S. 211 when a tractor pulled out of a private drive into her path, according to Sgt. Morris. The tractor was being operated by Charles Bruce, 46, of Washington, Va. Mrs. Fouse and a passenger, Barbara Wyville, were iryured in the collision. Trooper S.M. Knick charged Mr. Bruce with failure to yield the right-of-way. In other police activity this week: • Charges are pending against a motorcyclist following an accident on U.S. 211, 2.2 miles west of Route 667, according to Sgt. Morris. David Martin, 19, of Catlett, was eastbound at 2:45 p.m. on June 29, operating a 1981 Suzuki motorcycle, when he ran off the right side of the road, lost control and skidded across the parking area at Buck Hollow Trails, hitting some trees, said Sgt. Morris. Mr. Martin was injured and the bike was destroyed. Trooper S.M. Knick is investigating. • Authorities are looking for the driver of a white Ford Taurus who was allegedly involved in the hit and run of a bicyclist on U.S. 211, 3.2 miles west of Route 677, at 7:50 p.m. June 29, according to Sgt. Morris. Bicyclist Matthew Lands, 18, of Reston, was pedalling his 1990 Schwinn on U.S. 211 when he tried to pass the slow-moving Taurus on the right side of the far-right lane of traffic, said Sgt. Morris. As he attempted to pass, the car and Mr. Lands collided, sending him into the shoulder. The Taurus stopped, according to Sgt. Morris, then drove away after being confronted by Mr. Lands and another biker. Mr. Lands was transported to the hospital for treatment. Trooper C.A. Moore investigated. A partial license plate number was obtained, said Sgt. Morris. Schools wrap up year with bill-paying session By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer After the School Board finished paying the bills at a special end-ofthe-year meeting this week there was $289 left to be returned to the county’s general fund. Actually there was another $21,298, but that was unanticipated revenue for Piedmont Technical School, and it will be carried over for Piedmont until next year. With the end of the year, the board paid for gasoline and coal to fill the storage areas, stamps and $10,000 for the cafeteria to start up next year. The board also paid for a new freezer for the elementary school cafeteria and three new computers, two for primary grades at the elementary school and one for the math department at the high school. They also cut a check for the first payment on a lease-purchase agreement for a concrete vaulted above-ground fuel oil storage tank for the elementary school to replace the underground tank that has been used since the school was built. Superintendent David Gangel told the board members that there are still details to be worked out in the lease agreement, and that he hopes with the advice of Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke to have them worked out soon. The check will be sent after the superintendent is satisfied with the lease agreement and chairman Beverly Massie has signed the lease. Dr. Gangel said the lease provides for buying the tank over a five-year period, but he hopes to include money to purchase it in the 1992-93 budget. The board also voted to transfer funds among categories to balance those categories that had leftover funds and those that had gone over budget. Almost $87,000 was trans Sperryville sewer goes up 10 percent By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer Rates for users of the Sperryville sewer system may increase 10 percent. The Water and Sewer Authority voted 4-1 to increase the rate from $14.10 per unit to $15.50 per month at a special meeting set to work on the budget last Tuesday. Since then, member Charles K. “Pete” Estes said the authority may be required to hold a public hearing before increasing the rate, so the increase is only tentative. Member Carson Johnson voted against the increase, recommending a rate of $15 per month instead. The rate has remained at $14.10 for two years after starting at $12.85 when the plant first opened. The budget adopted for the year calls for $43,000 in operating expenses and an estimate of $5,000 in capital improvements fpr purchasing a dechlorinator. The new rate will bring in about $51,000 with another $3,500 of estimated income from interest on certificates of deposit held by the authority. ferred from instruction for this purpose. After checking out a bus, assistant superintendent Robert Chappell had driven to the board office from Madison County, the board voted to buy two school buses from Conaway Bus Sales in Pennsylvania. The buses have International chassis and Carpenter bodies. The bid for the buses was $28,112 per bus compared to $31,106 from Salem Equipment in Salem, Va. for the International chassis on Blue Bird bodies that the board has bought in the past. Following an executive session the board approved Bobbie Brochu’s request for early retirement. Mrs. Bruchu taught the remedial reading lab for second through seventh graders. The board also voted to accept Eleanor Dietz’s request that she be released from her contract. Mrs. Dietz taught sixth-grade science and reading. The School Board also voted to appoint Gretchen McCue to a position as part-time school psychologist. The authority members are trying to build up the funds invested in order to be able to replace major equipment at the plant as it wears out. They have approximately $50,000 in investments now, but $40,000 of that was left over from the original funds for building the system. They plan a more thorough study in the next year, but estimate that equipment that will have to be re, placed in the next 15 to 20 years will . cost at least $400,000. At that rate they would need to set aside $17,500 per year, not counting interest being earned. “If we don’t do something about building up funds to cover costs, v we’re going to leave the people who follow us a tremendous problem,” Chairman Gene Leggett said. Mr. Estes said, “We have a $1.5 million physical plant, but a substantial chunk of that is truly depreciating. Gene and I are in agreement. It is our responsibility to put in place a fund to cover depreciation.” “We need to look at each piece - and see what its replacement will cost,” Mr. Leggett said. “It’s a fair assessment that there will be changes, and that the changes will increase our costs.” New member Mark Bailey agreed. “Pete’s absolutely right. We’re going to have a serious situation in 20 years,” he said. “A 10 percent increase won’t do the job, but it’s a step in the right direction,” Mr. Estes said. “Can’t we keep it at $15?” Mr. Johnson asked. “I hate to see it raise this much. The plant was put in with grant money for the low income pep1 pie of Sperry ville.” “I hate to see it go up as much as anyone,” James Swindler said. “My family pays about 10 percent of thisi I don’t think we are putting it out of reach of the common man. It may be painful now, but it is a heck of a lot less painful than any alternative.” “We pretty much promised thfc people of Sperryville we would keep it under $15,” Mr. Johnson said. “I believe we can do it for $15. You all have your opinions, and the majority will rule. ” Mr. Swindler’s motion to increase the rate to $15.50 per month passed, and then a motion to adopt the budget passed unanimously.

Fourth of July events A full slate of activities is planned in Rappahannock County during the Fourth of July holiday. The day of events in Washington is capped off with a grand display of fireworks at the Carrigan’s at dusk. The annual events in town associated with the day’s festivities include the Rappahannock Library book sale at the old library from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., ice cream and used goods at Trinity Church, crafters, music, food and drink and children’s games. At noon Waldron O’Connor will read from historic American documents in a costume of the colonial period, followed by a performance by the Rappahannock Colonial Dancers. Trinity Church will also sponsor a Christian puppet show in front of the church throughout the day during ; the Fourth of July celebration. Just before the fireworks, William Carrigan will give his annual speech * along with a ceremony, which will mark the transfer of the old library, now the Town Hall, from the county’s possesion to the town’s. Gulf War soldiers and their families will also be recognized during the day. The following businesses and county offices will be closed on Thursday, July 4 for thr holiday: The Rappahannock National Bank in Washington and the Farmers and Merchants Bank in Flint Hill, county government offices ana the Rappahannock Social Services Department, Family Guidance Services of Rappahannock, The Rappahannock Health Department, area post offices and the Rappahannock News will be closed on the Fourth. Slaughter Continued from page A-1 Mr. Slaughter’s press secretary at the Capitol. “He’s operating at 98 percent right now instead of 120 percent,” said Mr. Comick. Mr. Slaughter handily defeated Democrat David Smith of Winchester last November amid speculation that his health was suffering. He refused to debate Mr. Smith and he or his staff limited his campaigning to controlled party affairs. In fact, Mr. Slaughter didn’t actively campaign until near the election. He granted few interviews, if any, to the press. When he did speak at events, some observers noted a halting and sometimes confused delivery. One of Mr. Smith’s campaign tactics was an interview Mr. Slaughter had granted a Winchester radio station. In it, the Culpeper Republican gave often rambling and sometimes befuddled answers to questions and at times was difficult to understand. During the campaign, Mr. Slaughter’s staff and supporters dismissed questions raised about his health even after his confusing and inarticulate statements were made to the press. Queries to the congressman this week were referred to Mr. Cornick and chief of staff Rich Holcomb. Mr. Cornick said Mr. Slaughter had been given “a clean bill of health” during the spring of the '90 campaign. He said Mr. Slaughter was in “surprisingly good health” at that time, but that he was diagnosed at the University of Virginia Medical Center as having suffered a series of light strokes late last winter or early in the spring. In his press statement, Mr. Slaughter said he based his decision to quit after the diagnosis by his personal physician and consultation with family members. Mr. Cornick said Mr. Slaughter wasn’t hospitalized, has suffered no paralysis and had been “enjoying very good health.” “He’s used to always giving more than 100 percent,” said Mr. Cornick. “He holds himself to such a high standard that at 98 percent he’s concerned. . . .” that even that’s not good enough for his constituents, said the aide. Nevertheless, said Mr. Cornick, Mr. Slaughter will delay his departure until after the Nov. 5 election because he still feels capable to serve his district. “There’s not a shadow of a doubt that he can effectively and with integrity serve until Nov. 5,” said Mr. Cornick. According to his letter to Gov. Wilder, Mr. Slaughter apparently will step down immediately after the election in favor of the election’s victor, some two months before the next congressional class is sworn in during January. That would give the new congressman a couple of months seniority and a bit of experience over his fellow classmates. Stressing constituent services and rarely showing legislative leadership, Mr. Slaughter has served the Northern Piedmont and central Virginia as a politician for more than 30 years, beginning with his election to the state House of Delegates in 1958. He was first elected to Congress in 1984, replacing fellow Republican J. Kenneth Robinson, who retired. Mr. Slaughter consistently placed constituent service as his most important goal. “I have served my constituents for the past seven years to the best of my ability and been witness to, and participant in, many of the great national issues of the day,” Mr. Slaughter said. The announcement creates a new choice for those already considering their political future in light of Virginia Sen. William Truban’s recent resignation announcement.

I J SHARE participation increases Plans being made for July delivery of food By HELEN W. SMITH Rappahannock New» Contributing Writer Participation in S.H.A.R.E. increased in June, according to Nan McEvoy, chairman for the S.H.A.R.E. Host Site at Washington Baptist Church. “We had 33 participants, up from 27 in May. All of the same people signed up again, which speaks well for the food received and for the purpose of S.H.A.R.E.,” she said. “I’m anxious to get S.H.A.R.E. really rolling, because the benefits to the community will be great,” continued Mrs. McEvoy. Each month the S.H.A.R.E. food basket contains $30-$35 worth of groceries for which participants pay $13 and contribute two hours of service to their community. The June food basket included: chicken franks, chicken leg quarters, McLean beef patties, turkey Kiev, cabbage, green peppers, lettuce, onions, radishes, sweet potatoes, grapefruit, oranges, cantaloupe, pineapple, popcorn, margarine, potato side dish, and Sara Lee muffins. Maybelle Gilkey, who is on the local S.H.A.R.E. committee, stated, “If you can buy one week’s groceries for $13, it’s worth it! I haven’t been to the grocery store this week; I just bought milk, eggs, and bread to go with the S.H.A.R.E. food. That’s very economical for one week.” The S.H.A.R.E. Host Site at Washington Baptist Church invites all Rappahannock County residents to participate in S.H.A.R.E. in July.

Wednesday, JullSl ,m li W: Opposite the Post Office in Old Town Sperryville 703-987-8547 By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Ncwa Staff Writer A fairly small crowd came out for a public hearing at the Flint Hill firehall on realigning Route 729 where it crosses Hickman Run slightly east of Flint Hill. The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) is proposing to move the bridge and its approaches about 50 feet downstream from the current crossing. This would eliminate several curves in the road. Larry Jensen, who owns two parcels of land that will be divided by the rebuilt part of the road, objected to the proposed route and offered to donate land for a different alignment that would involve rebuilding a larger portion of the road. Mr. Jensen owns one 15-acre parM along with Rose H. Jensen and another of about 59 acres in only his name. The proposed road will cut off about one-fourth of an acre from the smaller parcel and about 1.25 acres from the larger parcel. William Jenkins from VDOTs department of location and design in Culpeper said the improvement to Route 729 is included in the six-year secondary road plan. He said the road is currently 19 feet wide and narrows to one lane to cross the bridge. There are several curves approaching the bridge and one after it. He said that last year the traffic on the bridge was measured at 380 vehicles per day and that VDOT expects that to increase to 777 vehicles per day by the year 2003. He said $340,000 has been set aside for acquiring right-of-way and constructing the new road and culverts. The project is scheduled to begin during the summer of 1992. Douglas McCabe, representing the Flint Hill Fire Department and Rescue Squad, said he has gone on numerous rescue calls for accidents on that section of road, and that many other accidents that end with cars in the ditch are not reported. He said that the area is dangerous because of blind spots approaching the bridge, people driving in the middle of the road, flooding at the bridge in high water, and poor traction in winter weather for cars coming into Flint Hill. He said he also lives along the road. “The residents would like to see a speedy solution to this dangerous situation,” he added. Flint Hill road plan discussed

Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation. over 2 years - $3.00 (if available]! T-'P Bureau THURSDAY, JULY 4,1991 Editorial Impaired incumbent The resignation of U.S. Rep. D. French Slaughter Jr. due to ill health should not come as a surprise to those who have watched him closely during the past several years. Though his staff maintains that the congressman is still functioning at “98 percent” after a series of minor strokes earlier this year, we have to wonder about the wisdom of his decision to remain in office until his successor is selected in a special election on Nov. 5. Reporters who followed Mr. Slaughter on the campaign trail last year remarked on the often rambling and sometimes confused answers he offered to questions. The perception that his health was failing was not abated by his decision to eschew debates and campaign appearances except in controlled circumstances before partisan crowds. Even there, he sometimes had problems. Though the explanation offered was the pressing business of the budget negotiations in Washington, suspicions ran high that Mr. Slaughter was being kept off the campaign trail for other reasons. Mr. Slaughter’s staff insists that there was no problem during the campaign, and that the series of strokes that precipitated his decision to resign are a recent development. Though the main result of the strokes has been, according to his staff, some inability to articulate, that difficulty seemed to predate the election. If that problem, which seemed evident then, is worse now, we have to wonder if the congressman is indeed capable, as his aides insist, of adequately representing his constituents until November. How, for example, will he represent the interests of his constituents in committees and on the House floor if he is unable to articulate his thoughts? Though we recognize and applaud Mr. Slaughter’s long record of devoted service to his constituents, we think that perhaps he should step down immediately. It would be no blot on his long record of distinguished service for him to do so. Rr'tar A u ,r*vH YEVHAN KS T0 THE BIG JOB - YOU ARE LUCKY If SHERIFF AND HIS TO &ET SO MUCH HELP. /J FRIENDS.

Letters to the editor Legislative overkill To the Editor: Congratulations Virginians, we’ve been had again. As of July 1 we’ve been handed 600 new laws to abide by. (That’s just in Virginia alone.) Six hundred laws we knew nothing about . . . laws never voted for or against by the public . . . 600 which, I am sure, all are accompanied by fines aimed at the unwary wrong-doers. Six hundred things we cannot do today that we were perfectly free to do yesterday. For example: When I went to repair my grandmother’s lovely old spectacles (the old frameless style) I was informed of a new law prohibiting holes from being drilled in glass lenses. A good law, I suppose, if you’re a legislator. The idea, perhaps, is that holes weaken the glass. Who knows? The bottom line is that it restricted my personal freedom, not to mention my grandma’s vision. Of course she could buy new frames. Maybe that’s the idea. Six hundred new laws a year. Can you imagine where that will put us by the turn of the century? Not to mention where we’ve come from since 1891. How could you remember them even is presented with the volume it takes to write them down. “Ignorance of the law is no excuse . . .’’except for that “Miranda” thing about not being told your rights . . . (a relatively new law) in that case criminals are free to go. When a legislator is elected, he (or she) feels that they must legislate . . . whether we need it or not. After all it’s their job, isn’t it? And another election will soon be along. I remember a Congressman running for election not long ago whose main claim to fame wasl how many new bills he had gotten passed. He lost me right there! Will Rogers once stated that in his opinion Calvin Coolidge was the best president we ever had. When reminded that Mr. Coolidge didn’t do anything Mr. Rogers replied that during that administration we didn’t need anything done. Legislators, take notice! C’mon, somebody run on the “do nothing” ticket. Can you imagine a politician actually keeping his hands out of things for a whole term? Not only could he win an election by promising no new laws and thus no new infringements upon our freedom, but he could look into the validity of thousands of old ones. Then, after a good laugh and sev eral tears he could put forth his energy into undoing what generations of no-gooders have done for us. Now don’t get me wrong, some laws are good. I can think of nine or 10 right off. But beyond that things tend to get “hairy.” How about this: All new laws enacted should be subject to review and/or repeal... or at least a re-vote. After, say a year, if the law proves itself ok, vote it back in. If it doesn’t, it becomes void. Didn’t work ... no good . . . dead law. The way it now works every law is a locked door. After a few years these antiquated laws become stumbling blocks. (Remember grandma’s glasses?) There is a volume dedicated to such laws published for its humor. But it really isn’t funny when one of these statutes reaches out and grabs at you. Now reviewing the validity of all current legislation every year (of course now they’re all current) would be quite time consuming. So much so that our beloved legislators would be devoting much time and good tax dollars to just that. In fact, they possibly wouldn’t have so much time on their hands to levy new ones . . . say, now, there’s an idea. RICHARD W. PIERSON Amissville Inn thanks community To the Editor: We would like to express our gratitude to the individuals who volunteered their valuable time to serve as a Citizens Advisory Committee, headed by Jim Thomasson', for The Inn at Little Washington. Their involvement will be invaluable in creating a resolution to The Inn’s plans for expansion which will benefit the entire community. Few communities in the world would have been able to conduct such a comprehensive survey of citizens’ concerns. It is encouraging £b learn that in spite of different points of view we all share the common go&l of protecting and preserving what makes this community so special. £ Thank you also to all those who took the time to fill out the questionnaires. We look forward to continuing our plans with the benefit of your input. * PATRICK O’CONNELL REINHARDTLYNCH Proprietors The Inn at Little Washington Steve Johnson, a victim ofRobb-ery iliillll By JOHN GOOLRICK Steve Johnson is an old friend and colleague, a man who was one of Virginia's best political reporters. These days Mr. Johnson is slowdy twisting in the wind. Last August he became press secretary to U.S. Sen. Charles S. Robb, D-Va. He did that after returning to school and getting a doctorate. The job seemed ideally suited to Mr. Johnson, one that would allow him to transmit Sen. Robb’s thoughts about critical domestic and international issues to the news media, so he thought. But like those who got caught up in Watergate in previous times, the forest couldn’t be seen for the trees. A private detective and a national television show resurrected with some new angles the old story that Sen. Robb, while governor of Virginia from 1982-86, had secretly partied in the fast lane. There was talk of cocaine, prostitutes, beautiful women, a possible police cover-up. When Steve Johnson became press secretary, hidden somewhere in the office was a tape recording passed along to the Robb camp by an old friend. The tape was of an illegally recorded conversation in which L. Douglas Wilder, who is how Virginia governor, made some disparaging remarks about Sen. Robb. The two have been feuding for years and now the feud has resulted in kamikaze attacks against each other that have made national news and threaten both their political futures. If press accounts can be believed, David McCloud, Sen. Robb’s chief of staff, and Robert Watson, an aide he named to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, felt Mr. Johnson was not being aggressive enough in rebutting the rehashed and enhanced allegations about Sen. Robb’s lifestyle. Somehow a transcript of the tapped Gov. Wilder conversation found itself to a Washington Post reporter. The resulting story set off a firestorm of recriminations and investigations. Sen. Robb suspended with pay Mr. McCloud, Mr. Watson and Mr. Johnson. As oj[ this writing they remain on suspension pending various investigations. However, Sen. Robb has implied that Mr. McCloud, a man he has come to rely on heavily since gubernatorial days, is blameless while pointing a finger of suspicion at Mr. Watson and Mr. Johnson in the tape leaking accident. Mr. Watson’s lawyer has charged Sen. Robb in seeking to make his client a scapegoat. Bobby Watson is a normally genial fellow. He rose to prominence in state Democratic circles when he was the right hand man of Richard Davis, the state Democratic chairman back in the 1970s who more than anyone deserves credit for putting the party back in control of moderates who were able to sweep three statewide elections in the 1980s. Mr. Watson at various times has worked for the Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission, been a lobbyist and served as Sen. Robb’s state director. He is a skilled politician now embroiled in one of the state’s most heavily publicized political incidents in its history. Mr. McCloud has a reputation of being a tough guy in the Haldeman mold. But chief of staffs to governors, senators, etc. are supposed to Old Dominion Politics be tough, efficient guys. While serving as Sen. Robb’s strong right arm in Richmond, Mr. McCloud commanded the respect of members of the Virginia General Assembly. That was one of the reasons why when Gerald Baliles became governor he asked Mr. McCloud to stay on as chief of staff. I am trying to get at the human tragedy of what is unfolding, the wreckage beyond the sensationalism. It seems unlikely, though I have no certain knowledge, that Mr. Johnson or Mr. Watson will be returned to their former posts and it may be even too late for Sen. Robb to salvage Mr. McCloud as much as he’d obviously like to. We have talented people whose careers have certainly been badly damaged by the extraordinary publicity and who will have to suffer in coming months through the continuing investigations. Sen. Robb emerges tarnished. He can forget any future presidential ambitions and, indeed, very possibly any thoughts of seeking senatorial re-election in 1994. Gov. Wilder, who always proclaims himself blameless, looks increasingly petty and vain. Not only that, but there? is a distinct impression he used the State Police for po litical ends and that won’t set well with the public. The State Police superintendent William Corvello was less than forthcoming in giving reasons why his department initiated a probe into alleged threats against several persons who gave the media infomfetion about Sen. Robb’s activities. And once again old allegations were dredged up that Sen. Robb’s partying at Virginia Beach more than once compromised State Police undercover investigations of illegal drug use and sales. , Such allegations have been vigorously denied by Jay Cochran Jr., who then headed the Bureau pf Criminal Investigation. But though Mr. Cochran is a man of integrity, the rumors persist. , ’ There is more than enough tar In this whole sorry mess to go around. The guilty should certainly be puhished to whatever extent their transgressions merit. But there ia a danger some who are innocent, or ht least not all that guilty, will suffer. This, after all, has the smell of becoming Virginia’s own “Watergate]” There is no questions, either that both the Wilder and Robb camps have played the game badly during the evolutionary stages of the brohaha. They have repeatedly been caught in their attempts to be evasive. But history repeats itself. There was the same pattern in WW&S tergate, but eventually it all cahw^ out. (Editor’s note: John Goolrick ' , former political reporter, is now a aide to 7th District Rep. D FreZ Slaughter Jr., R-Va. OpinimZTet pressed are his own).

Asked for comment on what is certainly the report’s primary recommendation, the scaling down of the project, The Inn’s co-owner and chef Patrick O’Connell responded, “We have just received the report and are still studying it along with the individual questionnaires. It would be premature at this time to make specific comments on a survey which took more than a year to compile.” Mr. O’Connell and partner Reinhardt Lynch requested that the Rappahannock News submit written questions about the report. “We can’t possibly know how much increased tax revenue any expansion will yield the town without knowing how many additional rooms the town will approve. The more it approves, of course, the more lodging taxes the town will earn and the more viable it will make this project. We are extremely grateful to the citizens who served on the committee and know that the report will be very helpful. We were very pleased by the number of citizens who welcome a tasteful expansion of The Inn,” wrote Mr. O’Connell. The report suggests “intelligible and mutually satisfying compromise,” tells both sides in the controversy to “end the petty bickering and nastiness’ which has characterized so much of the conversation on this issue,” calls for “continued and increased community support and interaction” and tells Mr. O’Connell and Mr. Lynch “to listen clearly to the expression of concern.” The Inn’s owners’ written responses suggest they may not wait long to continue to pursue the project, reveal their frustration with the negative reaction the expansion has engendered and leave open the possibility they may leave the town. “Having already received the necessary zoning, the next phase Correction Fanning Baumgardner’s name was misspelled in the story last week on architecture consultant William Remington. will be a special use permit, followed by approval for the design by the Architectural Review Board,” according to Mr. O’Connell. He confirmed that The Inn has been approached by at least one other town to relocate, but he would not elaborate. “We love this town and county very much. For the last 20 years it has been our home. Our business has been growing and expanding for the last 14 years and will need to continue to do so if we are to remain interested in running it here,” he said. The report’s other findings and recommendations: • The “important, legitimate concerns which must be addressed” include “water and septic, traffic and parking, scale and design of the proposed structures in relation to the abiding scale and character of the village, and social relations between The Inn’s owners and the town community.” • Compromise points called for by the committee were “better design,” “location of parking and tennis courts,” “avoidance of one massive, unbroken facade,” and “placement of reception areas to minimize parking or traffic congestion.” Mr. O’Connell wrote, “We not only feel we can solve the problem of parking but significantly improve the present situation by creating a more effective and harmonious screened parking and arrival site.” • Town residents are concerned about the fate of two structures, the Sisk and Almond houses, that would have to be destroyed or moved under the proposed design. The committee recommends moving them, perhaps to other town property owned by Mr. O’Connell and Mr. Lynch. • Negative aspects of the expansion, according to the committee, are an increased demand for services, stark overdependence of the town on one business as a source of revenue, increased cost of housing, inflated land values and little or no employment for local residents. • Positive aspects the committee listed: Expanded tax revenue, increased tourism, establishment of a broadened business community, “solidified” property values, less likelihood of other taxes, and increased employment opportunity. • The committee also made three recommendations to the Town Council, including making a study of the present parking situation, exploring the future of the town’s sewage disposal as a whole and investing “some of the tax proceeds in endowment for the future in order to avoid overdependence on single-source revenues.” THE 1991 * ROARING 4th OF JULY I at GREAT MEADOW The Plains, Virginia Celebrating the Bicentennial of the American Bill of Rights SPONSORED BY Arundel Newspapers &.

Last week Robert M. Darby of Woodville told local Republican party officials that he is definitely interested in being the candidate to run for the seat to represent Rappahannock, most of Fauquier, and four precincts in Warren County. Richard McNear of Gid Brown Hollow is also considering a run for the Republican nomination. Local Republican Party chairman Walter Longyear said there are no other candidates interested from any of the three counties. Mr. Darby, 54, moved to his home in Woodville, where he lives with his wife Trish and daughter Ann, in 1987. He has two grown sons and a daughter from a previous marriage. He lived in the Bellevue subdivision of Fauquier County from 1978 to 1987. “1 have a number of ties to Fauquier County,” he said. “We have a number of friends there, and I continue to be interested in county affairs. I never lost contact with Fauquier and my desire to be a part of it.” Mr. Darby is an elder in the Warrenton Presbyterian Church and is on the steering committee that is trying to organize a Fauquier chapter of Habitat for Humanity, an organization that uses volunteer labor to provide moderate-cost housing. He says he has friends and business associates in Front Royal, but he has fewer contacts in Warren County than in either Rappahannock or Fauquier. Mr. Darby graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1959. He served eight years in the Navy, four years on destroyers and four years on a nuclear-powered submarine. After leaving the Navy he worked for a ship building company in Maine and then for a management consulting firm in Washington, D.C. Along with four others he founded Advanced Technology, Inc., with headquarters in Reston. The firm provided engineering and com puter services to industry and government. It grew from the original five people to 2,300 employees before the firm was sold in 1988. At that time Mr. Darby retired. Since moving to Rappahannock County Mr. Darby has worked on the local Republican committee. He was precinct captain in French Slaughter’s 1990 campaign for reelection. He has also been involved in the Friends of the Rappahannock Library, and worked to get federal and state support for new library building. He is also providing fundraising advice to Windmore Foundation, a local arts organization in Culpeper County. He sponsors the Rappahannock math, science, engineering scholarship that awards a $1,000 renewable scholarship to a Rappahannock High graduate each year. Mr. Darby said he does not now want to state positions on such issues as development, the state’s financial problems, abortion, or elected school boards. “I have ideas of my own, but I want to talk with others,” he said. Monarchs split doubleheader The Rappahannock Monarchs split a doubleheader Sunday, losing the first game to Woodstock 10-6 and taking the nightcap 10-7. The Monarchs are now 5-4 in the Apple Valley League, battling for first place with the tournament coming up in three weeks. In the first game Sunday Larry Freeman hit a homer, a triple and a single to lead the Monarchs at the plate. Shawn Fardrell was the losing pitcher. In the second game, Reggie Williams had four hits, including a double and a triple. Philip Daczewitz was the winning pitcher, and had nine strikeouts. The Monarchs play their home games in Sperryville behind the Pine Knot Inn.

Wakefield Continued from page A-1 the school’s Board of Directors. In the affidavit, Mr. Hopewell goes into more depth on the relationship between the board and Pamela Lynn, who hand-picked Mr. Hopewell and the other members. Mr. Hopewell states in the affidavit that the school was in “danger of financial collapse” during the winter of 1988-89, and that was a major factor in Pamela Lynn’s decision to establish an independent board. He states that “all continued ami cably until January, 1991. Dr. Saunders and the Board began receiving reports from parents, during the end of December 1990, and in early January 1991, concerning Pamela [Lynn’s] intemperate behavior with students, during rehearsals for a school play which Pamela [Lynn] directed.” Mr. Hopewell said that Dr. Saunders met with Mrs. Lynn about the complaints, and the situation deteriorated from there. “After that meeting with Dr. Saunders the amicable environment at Wakefield began to crumble. Pamela [Lynn] began spreading rumors among the parents and faculty that the curriculum was being changed, that the Board and Dr. Saunders were trying to eliminate the school’s tradition of a classical education, and that the Board was attempting to destroy the Lynn legacy. . . .In addition, Pamela [Lynn] began to write letters to the board, informing the Board that parents, students and faculty members were angry and upset over the changes in the school and the school’s curriculum, and had come to her requesting that she do something to save the school. She discussed these matters in the classroom, and read copies of her letters to the students. She circulated material denigrating the president [Dr. Saunders], the board and fellow RAPPAHANNOCK ■■mm 703/675-3338 Only $3.95 per week for a i inch space!

The affidavit also reviews other correspondance sent by Pamela Lynn and her attorney, William A. Beeton Jr., leading up to the June meeting of the Wakefield Parents Association when Pamela Lynn announced the school’s eviction and her intention to start a new school on the site. Pamela Lynn, refused to comment Monday, saying she preferred to wait until Judge Horne issued a decision on the injunction. During the hearing Friday, attorney Sedam told Judge Home, “It’s in everybody’s best interest that the status quo be preserved until we can have an evidentiary hearing on the issues.” Speaking of Pamela Lynn, Mr. Sedam said, “Most employees who had exhibited her behavior would have been forced out some time ago.” He said the board has granted Mrs. Lynn “nearly every demand,” but “like a spoiled child she changes her demands.” As Mr. Beeton is a party to litigation over the school, Mrs. Lynn Regular Sales Every Tuesday f HORSE SALE 2nd Sat, 10 a.m., Every Month STATE&riADt FAT CATTLE * tstTues., 1 p.m. Every Montti In addition to our regular salesbn the 2nd Tuesday of each month, we will have a State Graded Feeder Cattle Sale •Consignments Welcome.

Mr. Logie said that Clydetta Lynn, “as the owner of the property, has made the judgment that this corporation [the Board of Directors] is not a suitable tenant. Right or wrong, she has the power to make that judgment.” He called the temporary restraining order “a desperate effort to try and hang on to the property,” and accused the board of “trying to use the court process to hang onto property which they no longer have a right to.” About Pamela Lynn’s discipline problems, Mr. Logie said the board had another option to take — dis ■f missal. “They could have fired her,5 he said. Mr. Hopewell said the board has “bent over backwards” to avoig firing Mrs. Lynn, largely becaus# she is a co-founder of Wakefield. « n On the issue of the deed, Mr. Log gie echoed statements made over and over in recent weeks by princi* pals in the controversy when h& said, “Eventually, one way or th® other, there will have to be a trialg to determine if Educo or Clydettij Lynn owns the property. jm One of Clydetta Lynn’s attoiS neys, Kevin Burke, addressed thgg issue when he told Judge Horne thag “the substantial probability of su<® cess lies with Mrs. [Clydetta] Lynn on the question of who owns thS property.” ;;;J Fruit Continued from page A-1 “I know strawberries,” Mr. DeBergh said, sitting in his brass and leather office nestled behind the old packing house in Washington. He does not wear a suit and tie but is casually dressed. Besides his knowledge of strawberries, he’s learned a great deal about raspberries, blackberries, peaches, apricots and several other fruits. “If I don’t know it, I find out,” he said with a smile. Each fruit brings new customers to his business, which was started in 1982. During the busy part of the year — May through August — Mr. DeBergh often works days similiar to a farmer’s day — 16 to 18 hours in length. “I’m eating, thinking and working fruit,” he said. He talks fast and is constantly interrupted by telephone calls. The facsimile machine rings in the other office during an interview.

The 4-H Day Camp, which was conducted by the Rappahannock Extension Service, was held at the Northern Virginia 4-H Educational Center near Front Royal. “The purpose of 4-H Day Camp, as well as all of our 4-H activities, is educational,” stated Tommy Williams, Extension agent. “Day camp provides the opportunity for local youth to learn skills in the classes they take each morning.” “This year we were able to offer 11 classes because we had 16 wonderful adults who volunteered to teach the morning classes,” commented Helen Smith, Extension agent. Each child took three of the following classes: archery, cooking, crafts, art, painted Tshirts, sewing, wildlife, Indian folklore, fishing, softball, and first-aid. “We also had 16 very dedicated teen 4-H members who served as Teen Leaders for day camp, plus one who volunteered to babysit in the morning for three pre-school children so their mothers could be instructors,” continued Mrs. Smith. “The Teen Leaders were great, too. They assisted with the classes, were song leaders, and worked with the younger children to prepare tribal songs, cheers, and skits.” These were performed on Friday when the campers’ parents came for a picnic lunch and program. Each day following the morning classes, campers enjoyed a swimming period followed by lunch. Each afternoon camp ended with a special activity or program. On Monday, campers took a hike on the Appalachian Trail, which crosses the 4-H Center property. On Tuesday, Jean Falk-Morgan, a local dancer and actor, presented a program on storytelling and improvisational drama. Laurie Marshall, a local artist, presented a program entitled “Portraits, Landscapes and Dreams” on her art work on Wednesday. On Thursday, Lorraine Espinola, a local musician, presented a music program for the campers. She accompanied herself on her harp and mandolin. In addition to the instructors, teen leaders, and guest performers, several other people donated their time to make 4-H Day Camp possible. One mother served as camp nurse, several mothers organized the picnic lunch on Friday, and another mother conducted the land and water Olympics on Friday morning. “There are too many people who helped to name them all,” said Mr. Williams. “But the 1991 Day Camp would not have been successful without all of them.” Rappahannock News Staff Photos/Cindy Mahan Amy Joback strains to catch egg during egg toss.

After the reception, Mr. Gusler will lead a slide presentation at the Town Hall in Washington on period furniture from the Shenandoah Valley, wood carving and sculpture. * The cost is $5 and tickets can be purchased at the door or at the gallery. “Last year a couple of local craftsmen requested we do a show of this type,” Mr. Lewis said, adding the gallery has worked with those artists and crafters to organize and present the event. “This is not just for furniture,” he said, adding the show title — “Artistians Working In Wood, Wood Art and Sculpture” — includes “a spectrum of artists.” “We are expecting a very good turnout of work,” he said, adding many items will be for sale, though some are not for sale. Artists can enter up to three pieces. The gallery will decide the number entered in the show. “It depends on space,” Mr. Lewis said, adding already there are several large pieces of furniture. “We’ve no idea the number of sculptures or artworks we will get,” he said.

Bill is a retired 58-year-old diagnosed with lung cancer several years ago. Bill’s hobbies are gardening and woodworking. “I will always be grateful to Hospice. You are a great group of persons. I would like to mention the loving kindness of your nurse, social worker, and volunteer. In all aspects, staff and volunteers respected oUr wishes, beliefs, and values. You did an excellent job of promoting comfort.” Bill’s wife, children, neighbors, and church family were very supportive, allowing him to remain at home during this precious time. As with many people, Bill and his family were afraid of pain. To alleviate this concern and potential problem, Bill’s physician and the Hospice nurses kept Bill com fortable with pain medications and oxygen. This also allowed Bill to continue his daily routine. Hospice provided such nursing care as checking vital signs, assessing liquid intake and output, ordering necessary medical equipment, assessing pain, instructing on medication changes, and administering catheter care while infrequent contact with Bill’s doctor who worked closely with Hospice. Any person with a limited life expectancy living in Culpeper, Madison, Orange, or Rappahannock wishing to remain at home with the support of a caregiver is eligible for care through Hospice of the Rapklan regardless of ability to pay. According to Executive Director, Tina Hackney Weaver, hospices traditionally are reimbursed for only onehalf of patients served. A call to Hospice allows your loved one the advantages of remaining at home in the hands of pain treatment experts. An assessment is often made within 48 hours of your initial request. To initiate Hospice care, family members, friends, doctors, or clery may call. Call 703-8254840 for more information. Hospice’s availability 24 hours a day seven days a week gave patient Bill and family reassurance that they would never be without help. Bill was assisted with shaving, bathing, and hygiene by Hospice’s certified nursing assistant. This allowed Bill’s wife a break from this daily responsibility. Bill’s wife continues, “You gave our daughter the special attention she needed during this time.” The Hospice volunteer soon became friends with Bill’s daughter, who needed support and information regarding Bill’s declining physical condition. With much encouragement from Hospice’s social worker, nurses, and volunteer. Bill’s daughter assisted with caring for her father. Bereavement support is given to Bill’s wife, children, and grandchildren for up to one year. This includes emotional support as well as counselling about financial matters. of Mrs. Wade Pullen.

Mrs. Atkins' use permit passes BZA The Board of Zoning Appeals voted unanimously to approve a special use permit for Sallie Atkins to build a family apartment on her 3.1 acre lot for her daughter and grandson pending approval from the Health Department for the additional septic system. The 800-square-foot apartment is to be built over an 800-square-foot; unfinished basement. Chairman Louis G. “Butch” Zindel asked Mrs. Atkins about her plans for the basement. She said it would have a cement floor and would hold the furnace. “You are limited to 800 square feet,” Mr. Zindel said. “With the basement you could increase the size, and that wouldn’t be right.” Mrs. Atkins said she understood. County Administrator John McCarthy said he would be preparing a zoning amendment for the Planning Commission which would restrict auxiliary space for such applications in the future. — SHARON KILPATRICK jEEfeffiftcs RAYMOND B.

In a period of more than one hundred years, the American colonies had grown to thirteen in number, maturing into a nation possessing religious and political views differing from those of Great Britain, culminating in our War for Independence. The colonists would tolerate oppression and injustice no longer. They would govern their own, retaining their rights, including that of religious free dom. for which they had stru tilled so lone;, and settle for nothing less than iheir claims to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." Thus, the Declaration of Independence was conceived, forming a new nation. . .“the Thirteen United States of America.” She would soar on eagle wings, an enduring panorama of freedom and democracy spread out before her.

Summer is time to do canning By HBL.BIN W. SMITH Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer Canning season is finally here. You’ve done everything perfectly to prepare, from carefully tending your fruits and vegetables in the garden to replacing worn out equipment and clipping new recipes. Now it’s time to start canning. The trick to summer canning - something experienced home canners have known for years - is to stay cool while spending the day in the kitchen. Experienced canners get the most out of their canning by following some simple guidelines: • Instead of canning alone, share the rewards by having a friend or your children pitch in. The time will flyby. • Be efficient. Plan ahead and group fruits, vegetables and meats according to the way they’re canned and types of equipment used. Schedule jams, fruit butters and conserves in one group and pickled vegetables and relishes in another. With a little preplanning, you’ll have your preparation time down to a science. • Don’t go overboard trying to do everything at once. Estimate carefully (and honestly) how much time you’ll need to prepare, process and cool. • Start early in the morning. By beginning the day’s canning tasks when you’re fresh and the kitchen is cool, you’ll get the most accomplished. If canning with a friend, use the kitchen with the most stovetop and counter-space so things will run smoothly. • Set out all equipment the day before. Check your jars for nicks. Make sure screwbands are unbent and lids have a complete ring of sealant and that you have enough new caps and lids for your canning needs. You don’t want to find out at midday that you don’t have enough sealable jars in which to put the food you are processing. • Don’t overpack foods when filling jars; this allows for expansion HOME ECONOMICS and formation of a proper vacuum seal. Food forced into the sealing surface while expanding, or undergoing rapid pressure drops, can break the seal. Make sure the rim of the jar, lid and ring are immaculately clean before placing lid on jar and processing. • Test lids. Always perform this test to check seal. Press down on center of lid; if it stays down, you have a good seal. If not, it can be reprocessed, only if within 24 hours of original processing. Remove contents and prepare as if fresh. Examine jar for cracks or nicks. Use a new lid. Process for original processing time and method. This may cause some loss of quality. Otherwise, refrigerate and eat within a few days. If more than 24 hours since original processing, you must throw the whole thing out.
