Four candidates remain in House By MARK SCOLFORO Rappahannock Neva Staff Writer The sudden announcement last month by 7th District Congressman D. French Slaughter Jr. that he is stepping down has sent political parties and potential candidates scrambling. During the weeks since the race was added to the November ballot, at least 15 names have surfaced as potential candidates, but by this week the field had narrowed to only four. Competing for the Republican nomination are two Charlottesville lawyers: D. French Slaughter III, son of the incumbent, and George F. Allen, member of the Virginia House of Delegates from the 58th legislative Elementary PTO sees new changes for coming year By LISAG. CURRIE Rappahannock Ncwi Staff Writer As summer draws to a close, parents, teachers and students around the nation prepare for the the opening of a new school year. This year, there is a change in Rappahannock County. The Rappahannock Elementary School Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) has a new chairman, new committees, new policies and new goals. “It’s a new year, a new group and a new initiative,” chairman Greg Robertson said. The first change the group has made concerns membership dues. “There are none,” Mr. Robertson said. “If you are a parent or a teacher at Rappahannock Elementary School, then you are a member.” The 1991-92 goal for the group is to build membership through involvement of parents and teachers in the county. “Last year, we thought people did not sign up due to the $5 membership fees. This year, we have eliminated the dues,” Mr. Robertson said. See PTO, p. A-6 County to buy schools oil tank Purchase saves $11,000 By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer The Board of Supervisors voted to purchase a vaulted above-ground fuel-oil storage tank for the elementary school at Monday’s meeting. The school system needs to replace the underground storage tank by October when insurance on it runs out, Superintendent David Gangel explained to the supervisors. The School Board had accepted a contract from Eco Vault and was trying to negotiate a lease-purchase contract to buy it over time from a financing firm. Because one board cannot go into debt obligating a subsequent board without a referendum, the contract had to allow the School Board to drop out of the agreement. The contract being negotiated would allow that, but provided that the School Board could not then buy equipment to replace it for one year. Dr. Gangel said the board could not sign such a contract because it might mean they could not heat the school for a year. “I come before this board asking for help,” he said. The price for the tank is $40,900. Dr. Gangel said he already had $10,400 of that set aside for the first year of the five-year lease purchase agreement, and he See TANK, p. A-6 district. The two have split delegates during the district’s first few mass meetings. Kay Slaughter, a first cousin of Rep. Slaughter Jr., is the sole Democrat in the race. She is a staff attorney with the Southern Environmental Law Center in Charlottesville. The fourth candidate is conservative John A. Torrice Jr., a Fredericksburg banker and contractor whose main interest in running is his desire to implement a tax credit program that he claims will double the gross national product within 10 years. He is an Independent. Marie Ridder of Hume, an environmental activist and former journalist, considered running but announced Monday that she was stepping aside and would work for Ms. Slaughter’s campaign. In a series of interviews this week, the four candidates expounded on their views about a variety of na-; tional issues — from abortion and education to foreign, policy and the nomination of Clarence Thomas to the Supreme Court. On the issue of the environment, Mr. Allen called for “a balance” between environmental legislation and “how the laws would affect humans, their businesses, their property.” He would require beneficiaries of public assistance to do community service work in areas such as recycling.

CURRIE Rappahannock News SUIT Writer , ' In July 1988, Mary Frances Fannon opened Laurel Mills Store in Laurel Mills — very quietly. “It had to be quiet,” Mrs. Fannon said with smile, sitting in the newly renovated basement, soon-to-be-gallery. “I didn’t know how to work the cash register,” she laughed. In the last several years, Mrs. Fannon has learned not only how to work the register in her store, but to stock the shelves, order the inventory, keep the books and price the goods. Today, the red brick store located on Route 618 just behind Ben Venue (or just below Rappahannock News Staff Photo/C'intly Mahan The Flint Hill Carnival parade, the county’s largest, drew hundreds to U.S. 522 last Thursday, including beauty queens and fire trucks.

A-8 Injunction lifted^ school faces eviction: By MARK SCOLFORO f Rappahannock News Staff Writer Circuit Court Judge Thomas Df Horne on Monday cleared the way for Clydetta Lynn to evict the cup* rent Board of Directors from the six*, plus acres and buildings of Wakefield School in Huntly. Judge Horne dissolved the month-old temporary injunction that had kept Mrs. Lynn from evicting the school, making it “just a matte£ of time” before the board is officially evicted, according to Walter Longyear of Washington. .,! Mr. Longyear said Tuesday that he will be chairman of a committee overseeing the establishment of a new school, perhaps on the Huntly site. Attorney David Konick said this; week that he and Pamela Lynn,; school co-founder and former head- • master, would be involved in setting-! up the new school, to be called Wa-! kefield Country Day School Inc. ; Mr. Konick also said that Judge • Horne has sustained a motion to dis- • miss attorney William E. Beeton Jr. 1 from one of the pending lawsuits in ' the dispute. ; Judge Horne scheduled a “man-; datory settlement conference” in' Leesburg at 1 p.m. Aug. 20, the! time that had been reserved to hear! arguments in the suit to quiet title. ; Judge Home’s action to dissolve • the injunction last week came after! an hour and a half of arguments, andL!. followed the depositions last week of| Educo Trust trustees William Batf-^ sett and Robert Miller, both War-1 renton attorneys. ! Clydetta Lynn refused to com-; ment on the developments. In a related matter, a member of the Wakefield Board of Directors,Dr. Douglas Clarke of Warrenton, announced that the board has nar . rowed its search for a new site for! the school to three, and said plans; are moving ahead to open doors atone of the three sites on Sept. 9, the ‘ school’s annual first day of classes.! He said a majority of teachers were; planning to move with the board,; and that 249 students’ parents had • sent in reservation deposits. Last ! year’s final enrollment at Wakefield"! was 292 students. ; Mr. Longyear called the board's; plans “wishful thinking,” and pre*! dieted that much of the faculty! would stay at Wakefield Country! Day School, probably in Huntly. .; See WAKEFIELD, p. A-8 Six years in office won't let Beverly Atkins quit By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer Commissioner of the Revenue Beverly Atkins jokes that she is running for reelection because her deputy, Betsy Murray, won’t let her quit, but then she adds., “I enjoy my job.” She appreciates being able to live and work in Rappahannock. “I don’t like living in cities, and I don’t like to commute,” she said. “Most of the time I enjoy the people." Ms. Atkins, 33, is a Rappahannock native. She has been the Commissioner of Revenue since December, 1985. She had been working part-time in the office and was appointed when Merle Scoggin resigned. She was elected in 1986 and again in 1987. Herp is an office where laughter is heard frequently, but where a lot of work is accomplished. The year starts in January when she gets information from the build ing inspector on all the building per-; mits that were issued in the last* year. The land books have to be changed to include the increased va-! lue of properties due to building. . -I She relies on a booklet from the; assessment company that lists va-; lues for buildings based on area, use' and building materials. She said she' sometimes goes out into the field to' inspect the properties. Once she has determined a value for the building or addition, she sends a letter to the property owner, who has two weeks to challenge the assessment. The information is sent to the firm that provides a computer print-out of the land books. From February through April her office deals with state income taxes and personal property taxes! Taxpayers can send their state income tax forms directly to Richmond, but they are encouraged to See REVENUE, p. A-8

Darby, Slaughter III speak at GOP event By SEBASTIAN SMITH Arundel Newspapers Staff Writer The Fauquier Republican Committee endorsed Robert Darby as its candidate for the House of Delegates in the 31st District and re-endorsed a number of other Fauquier Republicans at its meeting July 31. French Slaughter III, a candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives from the 7th District and the son of the retiring incumbent Rep. D. French Slaughter Jr., R-Va., spoke at the meeting in the Warren Green Building. He said, “I would be standing in front of you today if my name were not French Slaughter.” Mr. Darby and incumbent Fauquier Treasurer Bitsy Lineweaver were the only Republican hopefuls without the GOP’s endorsement until the meeting. Fauquier GOP Committee Chairman Betty Quigley said that Mr. Darby, from Rappahannock, who faces Fauquier Democrat Jerry Wood, had called her to “request I get you all to reconsider” a previous decision to leave any endorsement in that race until the Mass Meeting, Aug. 31. The committee voted 14-6 to back Mr. Darby and was unanimous in endorsing Ms. Lineweaver. Mrs. Quigley said it did not matter that the vote on Darby was less than unanimous since it was a majority. The committee then reendorsed all its candidates in a blanket motion. Mr. Slaughter, whose competition in the GOP for the congressional seat comes from Republican Del. George Allen, said he would be the most effective person to fill the shoes of his father, the incumbent who is retiring because of poor health. Although he has a career as a Charlottesville lawyer and is not “a professional politician,” he would be “someone fresh” in Washington, D.C., Mr. Slaughter said. “Maybe a little youth and vigor would push them (in Congress) a little harder,” he said, adding that he was no stranger to the politics and concerns of the 7th District. “Everyone knows I’ve been deeply involved in that — not in the limelight, but working hard,” he said. Furthermore, he said, ,he would quickly warm to political life in the capital. “I know a little bit about our current congressman ... I don’t have to sit down and read a briefing book somewhere — I’ve lived it. You need someone’s who’s going to hit the ground running,” he said. Mr. Slaughter later said he thought Del. Allen, the other Republican contender, would “take time to learn.” Mr. Slaughter said that transportation, education, fighting tax increases and balancing the national budget were his major concerns. “The other guy running for this office (Allen) disparages” transportation problems, Mr. Slaughter said. Later he said that Mr. Allen’s opposition in the State House to transportation bills for Northern Virginia showed he was “not up on total needs” of the area.

Congress Continued from page A-1 Mr. Slaughter III would encourage more public awareness of environmental problems. “I’m not a Scientist, but myself, as a citizen and family man, you see increasing sensitivity to environmental concerns. I think that’s a healthy sign.” He added, “Regardless of party lines, people are going to do what’s right When it comes to protecting the environment.” Ms. Slaughter is taking a leave of absence from her job as an environmental advocate. She said the environment is a “crucial” issue in the 7th District. She said her approach would be one of protecting the “beautiful and rich environment,” including historical resources in the district’s countryside and towns. . She said she would be “pro-active” in obtaining federal funds for the district’s environmental problems. “I know the committees on the Hill that work on these issues, and I know how the laws can be changed,” she said. Mr. Torrice said, “I think we’re wasting entirely too much money for what we’re getting.” Government, he said, including environmental clean-up, “ought to be structured in such a way as to be cost-effective. I’d spend less money and I’d get more done for it.” Turning to the issue of education, Mr. Slaughter III, whose two children attend public schools, supports “some measure of choice,” but not “throwing money away” by needlessly funding wasteful educational programs. “The federal government needs to foster education. Congress can target resources in specific areas,” he said, such as establishing science and technology scholarships. Ms. Slaughter said she favors “putting more money directly into the schools.” The two Republican candidates favor leaving decisions about abortion policy to the states. Mr. Allen has worked for parental notification during his time in the General Assembly, and Mr. Slaughter III said federal funds should not go to support abortion clinics. “It’s not a federal decision,” said Mr. Slaughter III. He declined to state his personal opinion on abortion. Mr. Torrice would not restrict abortions, but added: “It should be left up to the mother, and if it’s murder she should have to suffer for it. If a mother decides she should have it aborted then the state should have nothing to do with it.” Ms. Slaughter said, “I’m definitely opposed to the government interfering with personal decisionmaking about family planning.” With the economy’s putative recovery on everyone’s minds, the candidates offered their various approaches to economic policy. Perhaps the most unique is Mr. Torrice’s tax credit plan, which forms tne basis for his entire campaign. He would provide tax credits of $1,000 per year for goods or services purchased for one’s residence (whether owned or rented), $1,000 per year up to a total of $4,000 for buying American-made cars, and “non-business individuals will be able to purchase a new home and be able to deduct $60,000, regardless of cost, over a 40-year period.” “Once you raise (the gross national product) to six or seven trillion dollars, it’s going to take care of all of those ills. When the money’s 'there you can do just about anything. We’ll have a virtual Utopia in 10 years,” he said. Real Estate ® Eileen M.

Ms. Slaughter wants “to put more money back into the middle-income pocketbook.” Energy conservation alone, she said, would go a long way toward solving economic problems. Mr. Slaughter III said that “all national indicators are showing a turn-around,” and to continue the recovery “we have to be careful not to enact any recessionary tax increases.” Mr. Allen favors a capital gains tax cut that would be indexed to the inflation rate for investments of five years or more. The main issue, he said, “is how can we get people working?” Three of the four candidates favored some form of handgun control. Mr. Allen has the endorsement of the National Rifle Association. He would have supported the Staggers “instant check” Bill instead of the Brady Bill’s waiting period. He called Virginia’s instant check system, the first in the nation, “fast, fair and efficient.” Mr. Slaughter III would have voted for the Staggers Bill as well, but said that the Brady Bill constituted “an appropriate compromise.” Ms. Slaughter said she comes “from a family of hunters,” but doesn’t see any problem with criminal background checks. However, she said, the idea of having to register weapons might have the “unintended consequence” that if handguns were outlawed the government would know who owned them and might attempt to seize them. Mr. Torrice cautioned against the government “infringing on our liberties.” “The fear I have is that in history every nation that ever fell, the government took their weapons,” he said. On the larger issue of crime and drugs, Mr. Torrice suggested what he called a “radical” plan: “I’d post National Guard troops in every town of this nation for 60 days and I’d dry it up.” “Law enforcement has shown they can’t take care of it,” he said. Ms. Slaughter said she was “very involved on a local level” with the problems of crime and drugs through her work on the Charlottesville City Council. “Many sheriffs offices (in Virginia) are really struggling from state cuts,” and she would work to increase the federal government’s allocation for crime prevention and law enforcement in the district, she said. She wants more money for drug treatment and advocates putting more policemen on the sidewalks, as Charlottesville has done. Mr. Slaughter III, a former trial attorney with the U.S. Department of Justice, “spent a lot of time working in federal efforts on drug eradication” while assigned to Operation Greenback in Southern Florida. “It takes a lot of resources, but it must continue to be a priority,” he Katherine E. ‘Kay’ Slaughter Residence: Charlottesville Age:51 Political party: Democrat Education: B.A., UNCChapel Hill; J.D., U.Va.

He is a member of the General Assembly’s Courts of Justice and General Laws committees. He has worked to increase the amount of information that juries in Virginia are given on a defendant’s criminal history. In general, Mr. Allen said, he has ‘a solid law enforcement record,” including endorsements by the sheriffs n his General Assembly district. In a split along ideological lines, the three conservatives all favor Judge Clarence Thomas’ nomination, while Ms. Slaughter does not. She said his qualifications “are not of the caliber to be appointed to the Supreme Court. ” All four candidates are opposed to any kind of government quota. All four also support a Constitutional amendment to force the federal government to balance the budget. Mr. Slaughter III would go further, instituting a “flexible freeze” on government programs “to tie spending down.” Mr. Torrice wants to cut five percent from government programs across-the-board, and his blossoming gross national product would cure much of the deficit problem, he said. Mr. Allen favors a line-item veto to combat pork-barrel votes, as exists in Virginia. None of the three conservatives would increase taxes, least of all Mr. Torrice, whose massive tax credits are designed as a “trickle-up” tax break for the workingman. Neither would Ms. Slaughter, who says “what we need to do is look at some relief for the middle class,” and wants to cut payroll taxes. She would put an end to the Bush Administration’s method of calculating the deficit by counting Social Security proceeds. Mr. Allen would slash government bureaucracy, not raise taxes. “Of all times to not increase taxes, this is it,” he said. Also no friend of tax increases, Mr. Slaughter III said, “We saw last year how the Democrats cooked up the biggest spending program in history. In Washington today, if you increase taxes it doesn’t go toward the deficit,” but simply increases spending. “Tax increases are recessionary, and as this part of the country is just recovering, a tax increase would be a disaster,” he said. On the foreign policy front, Mr. Torrice’s massive tax credits would play an important role. He would close many of our overseas military bases, and then hire the veterans back in the states when the economy begins to churn toward his $7 billion GNP. Mr. Slaughter III termed the foreign policy efforts made by the Bush Administration “a superb job,” and although he is “encouraged” by warming relations with the Soviets, he would not pour money into their economy. “I think America has regained confidence as an economic power in the world, and I am satisfied that under the president’s guidance we will do the things we need to do to keep America competitive,” he said. Mr. Allen called for a “realistic” approach to foreign policy, especially when dealing with tyrants. He would be more conservative with aid to other countries and would force the Soviets to cut their own defense and their aid to Cuba before asking the United States to rescue their economy. Ms. Slaughter said in the area of foreign policy she would solicit input from 7th District constituents. One area she finds “very encouraging” is the conversion to democracy by Eastern European countries. “Democracy really works and free enterprise really works,” she said. Mr. Slaughter III and Mr. Allen are locked in a race to amass as many delegates as they can prior to the 7th District Republican conven tion Aug. 25 in Charlottesville. Mr. Allen holds a lead in delegates, but only a handful of counties and cities in the district have held their mass meetings. With Mrs. Ridder out of the race, Ms. Slaughter will be able to concentrate her efforts on the three other candidates. At any rate, the 7th District Democratic convention is Sept. 7 at Culpeper High School. The Rappahannock Republican mass meeting for the 7th District is 7:30 p.m., Monday, Aug. 12 at the county courthouse. Everyone may attend, only registered voters may vote and those who wish to be delegates must contact county party chairman Walter Longyear by mail by 6 p.m. Aug. 10 at P.O. Box 124, Fairlea Farm, Mount Salem Avenue, Washington, Va. 22747. The Rappahannock Democratic Committee will hold its mass meeting at the county courthouse at 7:30 p.m., Wednesday, Aug. 28. Delegates will be selected for the 7th District party convention to nominate Ms. Slaughter and to send delegates to the 31st House of Delegates District convention, according to county party chairman Doug Baumgardner. All Democratic Party members may attend. District-wide mass meetings will be held in Charlottesville for Sen. Thomas Michie and in Luray for Margaret Haynes as well, said Mr. Baumgardner.

The Audit Bureau THURSDAY, AUGUST 8, 1991 Editorial Political consensus It took the resignation of U.S. Rep. D. French Slaughter Jr. to put a little spice into the current election season for Rappahannock voters. With three U.Va. lawyers and a political outsider just getting down to business, life out here in the hustings may prove more interesting as November approaches. The Republicans have held the seat for many years, and have two formidable candidates in the field, but the Democrats are united behind Kay Slaughter and Independent John Torrice promises he’ll run an aggressive campaign. It’s a good thing the 7th District Congressional seat opened up, because this county’s elections are as bland as baby food. Not that the candidates aren’t qualified — but in every case but one the incumbent is running unopposed. Rappahannock’s version of “politically correct” is to do your job quietly and well, then run an Independent, low-key campaign. If it doesn’t produce great oratory, or even any, at least there’s no question about who’s watching the store. Even the one contested race, for sheriff, lacks animosity, more resembling a inter-family squabble than a world war. Challenger Roger Cordani said this week, “I don’t want to slam anybody. I just want to go out and tell the people what I can do for them.” Sheriff John Henry Woodward is equally loath to engage in anything that could be construed as negative campaigning. Wherever the national parties developed attack ads and opponent bashing, it certainly wasn’t in Rappahannock. Voters in most neighboring counties, especially Fauquier, may complain that they need a scorecard to keep track of local politics this year — six people are still in the race for Fauquier sheriff. So it’s being left to George Allen, D. French Slaughter III, Kay Slaughter and John Torrice to remind us that there are some serious ideological differences among voters in the world outside Rappahannock in terms of how this country ought to be run. But inside Rappahannock, the consensus is clearly that the county is being run well enough. WHY MUST YOU KEEP INTERFERING IN 0// PRIVATE AFFAIRS W/ i ii'in."ly - WE RtALL'Y HATE l.

I appreciate the comments of Ellis Bingham, supervisor for Jackson District, reference my actions in connection with the tar spill on Route 640 on July 18. However, the real credit goes to J.B. Carter, Co. 3, Amissville, the commander on the scene, his people from Co. 3, responders from Co. 1, Washington; Co. 4, Flint Hill; and Co. 1, Warrenton. They diked the ditches, dammed the small stream and kept the tar from moving into Mr. Liverman’s pond. All this was done in a very short time and under trying conditions of terrain and heat. These people are to be commended for their quick and effective response. D.C. KNUEPFER OES Coordinator Rappahannock County Thanks for 'Art in Park' To the Editor: For two weeks, beginning July 15 and ending July 26, Windmore Foundation for the Arts conducted its “Art in the Park” program for children 5-12. Approximately 80 children participated in the program', which was to culminate in an art show at Yowell Meadow Park in Culpeper on Saturday, July 27. Saturday turned into a mixed blessing — for while we were blessed with badly needed rain, but it precluded our having the art show in the park. Fortunately for us, Culpeper Presbyterian Church and Rev. Wayne Bernardo allowed us to have our art show in the basement of their church. They also permitted Windmore to hold the art classes there throughout the two week period. Although the work was not shown in the park as originally planned, the important thing was to display it for the public and that we were able to do. Children excitedly escorted parents, grandparents, siblings, and friends into what became a colorful and varied display of the children’s creativity. In putting together this or any other Windmore project, many volunteers are needed and many donations of time and/or equipment are needed as well. We have been fortunate to have our needs met in the past and I would like to thank those who helped “Art in the Park” meet our and the children’s expectations despite the rain and change of location. I apologize in advance if I inadvertantly exclude anyone, it is not intentional. My sincere and heartfelt thanks to: Culpeper Presbyterian Church, Linda, Rev. Wayne Bernardo, J.A.

New vacation rules have altered politics By JOHN GOOLRICK Rappahannock News Special Writer In summer of 1971, five or six months after he’d taken office as governor of Virginia, Linwood Holton created a stir by vacationing in Wright’s Beach, N.C. Critics protested that Holton, though he’d been going to the North Carolina beach for years, was consorting with the enemy and ignoring the fine beaches of Virginia. As head of the government, they contended, he should promote the many virtues of the Commonwealth, includings its sandy sun-drenched shores. Recently eyebrows were raised again when it was disclosed that Gov. L. Douglas Wilder had gone on vacation to Switzerland for a week where he apparently attended some events with Patricia Kluge, separated spouse of John Kluge of Albemarle County, one of the world’s richest men and a big-time Wilder campaign benefactor. Not only that, but the governor had used a state plane to fly him to New York’s John F. Kennedy Airport and back - flights costing $2,680, according to records. Though the Governor’s Office has said he would repay that money to the state, his fiscal conservatism might be questioned since the roundtrip commercial fare from Richmond International Airport would have been considerably less. The Holton and Wilder incidents have in common only the fact that there is always a question about how much the public should concern itself with the private lives of public figures. Of course, it’s clear that people enter public service voluntarily and knowing that they can expect to live their lives in at least a partial fishbowl. In Gov. Holton’s day, however, the media didn’t try to follow him to the North Carolina beach or even make any big fuss about the card games some friends regularly played at the Governor’s Mansion. But the Chuck Robb story has probably guaranteed that future governors and other public officials in Virginia will be under much tougher media focus both in their public and private existences. Looking back, it is difficult to believe that word never leaked out of Sen. Robb’s weekend activities at Old Dominion Politics Virginia Beach where he often attended parties with a fast crowd of affluent developers and real estate speculators. In those days I was covering state politics and regularly fraternizing with fellow reporters. Everyone regarded Sen. Robb as somewhat of a “square” who was doing an excellent job as governor. Only after he left office did rumors start floating about the parties where cocaine was used and about the indictments for cocaine-related crimes of some whom Sen. Robb considered personal friends. Despite all the stories, there has been no indication Sen. Robb ever used the stuff himself or knew it was being used until well after the fact. There are probably many members of the media who have gone to parties where illegal substances were used without their knowledge. I don’t know that for a certainty, but given the culture of the 1980s and 1990s it is likely true. When the Robb story started to break a few years after he’d left office, some observers started to question whether the Virginia political press had been asleep at the switch. Why hadn’t reporters tried to find out how the governor spent his offduty hours and who he had been consorting with? There were implications the state media was less than aggressive when it came to examining aspects of lives of public figures that related to their friends and campaign contributors. As a result, in my opinion, a much broader adversarial relationship between political reporters and the politicians they cover has grown up in the past four or five years. (Editor’s note: John Goolrick, a former political reporter, is now an aide to U.S. Rep. D. French Slaughter Jr., R-Va. Opinions expressed are his oum.)

Rev. Darrell Bare, left, and Judge Rayner Snead worked on the Lake Sunapee (N.H.) Baptist Church building. Local Baptist church aids N.H. brethren By APRIL HEDDLESTON Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Why did six men, two women and three children travel over 1,200 miles to hammer, saw, spackle and paint walls? They were on a mission, a church building project of the Washington Baptist Church Brotherhood. The crew from Washington included organizers Rayner and Lois Snead and Rev. Darrell Bare, Kent Reeve, Sam Snead, Bill Welch, Jon and April Heddleston and their children Jonathan, Chad and Joy. Most of the group arrived Saturday, July 20 in order to attend church services at Lake Sunapee, N.H. The 22-member congregation there has been meeting in a mobile chapel lent them by the Baptist Home Mission Board. In October, 1990 they voted to build a new church building. They made a “step in faith” when they decided to build without financing actually in hand, but as Rev. Albert Perry says, they “trusted God to provide all they needed.” Willing workers, as well as donations, soon were forthcoming. A grant from the Cecil B. Day Foundation (of Days Inn fame) paid 50 percent of the remaining mortgage on their land and helped with funds for .building materials. However, the $50,000 invested in building would have needed to be at least tripled to cover costs if the labor had not been volunteered. The Brotherhood from Washington Baptist, whose president is Garry Charles, was one of four working teams that responded after Rev. Perry let the Baptist coordinator of summer mission trips know they were ready to build. The Washington crew spent a week doing drywall, painting and finish carpentry. Mixed in with hard work they had fellowship times of cookouts and a special treat, a trip for Wednesday night services to sister church, Washington Baptist of Washington, Vt. There, in a prayer meeting,, familiar names were listed; each week the congregation of the Vermont church prays for members of Washington Baptist of Virginia. Working alongside the Washington group was part-time pastor A1 Perry, who used vacation time from his mechanical engineering job. Two members of his congregation, Dave Ellis and Tom Prieskines, and Walter and Bobby Warden from Kissimmee, Fla., also worked. After the Washington group left the Wardens, members of a Campers on Mission team stayed on to work for another week. Several groups had proceeded the Washington team. In May, a group called “Carpenters for Christ ’ from Alabama constructed the church’s shell. Next came eight adults and 14 teenagers from Woodbridge, who worked on insulation and sheetrock. They led Vacation Bible School as well. A congregation from North Carolina donated pews, and a small local Baptist church made a donation because they were so excited “to have a new Baptist Church in [the] area. Following the Washington team will be a sister-church group from Harrisonburg, scheduled to arrive on Aug. 6 to paint and hold revival services. Why are Virginia Baptists helping build churches in New England? Judge Snead, an organizer of the trip, is coordinator for the VirginiaNew England Baptist Partnership. He explained that during the World War II era many soldiers from the South were looking for Baptist churches in New England, but couldn’t find any. At that time an effort to start Baptist churches in that region was begun. The effort is still building, from less than 100 Baptist churches in 1983 to over 150 in New England today. The new 2,000-square-foot Lake Sunapee Baptist Church, housing a sanctuary, four Sunday school rooms, and fellowship hall, should meet the needs of the church for a while. But meantime, members of the Washington Baptist team headed home through the beautiful hills of New Hampshire and back to their regular jobs of data communications programmer, plumber, real estate agent, pastor, teacher, homemaker and retired judge. They had grown closer to a new church family and were leaving behind a rapidly progressing church building built on faith, with money and muscle power contributed by many. ^ Michie's opponent blasts incumbents By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Republican Ed Robb, challenging Democratic State Sen. Thomas Michie for the 25th District seat, is blaming the state’s fiscal woes on the “Wilder/Michie team.” i The 25th District includes Stonewall-Hawthom District in Rappahannock County, Madison, Margaret Haynes Ms. Haynes campaigns in the county Margaret Haynes brought her campaign for the 26th State Senate District seat to Rappahannock County last Wednesday. Speaking before a small crowd at the courthouse, she said she was seeking the Democratic Party nomination for the seat because with Republican Kevin Miller representing the district, “We haven’t been getting our money’s worth for the past eight years, and I want to change that.” The 26th Senate District includes all of Rappahannock except for the area that was Stonewall-Hawthom District before the most recent redistricting. She said with “unbridled” growth in the Northern Virginia and Tidewater areas of the state “the more rural regions of Virginia must elect strong, knowledgable and capable representatives to carry their message to Richmond.” She said as a Democrat she looks forward to being a member of “the team of the majority party,” but she added: “I think Virginians are fed up with bickering and backbiting within each party and between the parties.” Ms. Haynes was traveling throughout the district Wednesday announcing her candidacy. She visited Page County before coming to Rappahannock. She left Rappahannock to go to Warrenton, Culpeper and back to Harrisonburg. Ms. Haynes is an aide to Sixth District Congressman Jim Olin, DVa. She is in charge of his Harrisonburg office. She faces no opposition for the nomination.

Sen. Michie has represented the district for 13 years. Mr. Robb said that Sen. Michie is not an effective representative because even though he has seniority, he is not on the prestigious Finance Committee, and he is not chairman of any of the committees he does serve on. Mr. Robb blames the Democratic controlled statehouse and legislature for the state’s budget problems, saying “The Republicans warned them. They should have cut back long before it became critical.” He said as the campaign goes on he will make specific suggestions for cutting out agencies and programs that aren’t necessary. “I have a plan to resolve the budget problem,” he said. One thing the state did when it appeared that revenues would be below projections was eliminate a scheduled raise for state employees, but Mr. Robb attacked that decision also. “Why are state employees the first to have their pay raises cut?” he asked. “Some are not that well paid to begin with, and the governor gave pay raises to high administration people.” He said that as he meets with citizens he finds their major concerns are about education and crime. He said the country needs an “all-out war against drugs." On education, he said that Virginia’s students don’t need to compete against each other; they need to be able to compete with students from Tokyo and Bohn. He said he favored total “local control” over education, and cutting back on the “cost of the bureaucracy of the state’s Department of Education.” Mr. Robb, 53, is retired from the FBI. He worked for the FBI in Charlottesville from 1969 to 1989. He is also a former teacher, who taught in Warren, Ohio. He is married and has three grown children. He said he expects to spend the campaign out meeting people. He has visited Rappahannock. “Sen. Michie calls that gladhanding,” he said. “I call it democracy.” Sen. Michie is on vacation and w'as unavailable for comment. Jack Home, chairman of his reelection committee, disagreed with Mr. Robb’s comments. He noted that all of the chairmen of major commitees have more seniority than Sen. Miehie, but added that with several state senators retiring “Sen. Miehie will move up substantially in seniority.” He said that Sen. Michie’s success in running for the state senate and before that the House of Delegates shows “the people think he is effective.” He said Sen. Miehie had been particularly effective in getting help for the University of Virginia. As to the “Wilder/Michie team" and its effect, he said Sen. Miehie had supported Gov. Wilder in some things and opposed him in others. Mr. Home said the budget problems were part of a national problem and that “Virginia is coming out of this as strong as any state.” He said Sen. Miehie has the reputation of being very knowledgeable about proposed legislation and that others come to him to help them understand laws being proposed. Mr. Home said, “We feel good about the campaign; we feel he will be reelected.” He said Sen. Miehie will be visiting Rappahannock County during the campaign. WAKEFIELD COUNTRY DAY SCHOOL, INC.

Literary magazine named All-South Wakefield School in Huntly has been notified by the Southern Interscholastic Press Association (SIPA) that the literary magazine, Talisman, has earned an All-Southern, or first-place, award in the annual competition. Magazines are judged in six categories with 100 points being a perfect score; Talisman was awarded 93 points. The six categories are divided in various sections with a magazine’s strengths and weaknesses noted. In the display typography category, the judge gave Talisman the maximum score and noted that the typography “looks great!” In the content category, the magazine received 34 of 35 possible points with a comment from the judge that the content was very good with a nice reliance on fiction. The judge wrote additional comments about numerous individual pieces of art. Jamed Stephens’ (of Front Royal) illustration of a tube of paint spilling its contents was cited as was a decorative illustration of flowers and the spider’s web by Paul Mitchell of Warrenton. Willie d’Angelo-Horvath’s (of Linden) delicate pencil illustration of a moon over a surreal landscape was also praised. Several pages were commended for their professional layout. Additionally, several pieces of prose and poetry were singled out by the judge for special recognition. For poetry, Matthew Buratti of Haymarket was praised for his poem “The Hard Road” and John Viega of Winchester was commended for “Just Another Image." Britt Lawrence of Warrenton wrote a charming story entitled “The Perfect Gift,” which was commented on by the critic. Katie and Marcy Lynn of Washington were commended for their choice of “The Bibliomaniac” as a title for their interview with Marshall Boarman. Tim Roberts of Paris was praised for his descriptive piece entitled “Skateboarding.” The 1991 Talisman, with the theme “Stones and String,” was the 11th edition of the magazine to be published. Since 1983 the magazine has garnered awards from both SIPA and the Columbia Scholastic Press Association in New York. Students in Wakefield’s publications classes will begin work on the 1992 edition of the magazine when they return to school in September. Children learn reading in library is 'dino-mite' Approximately 80 children and their parents are attending the weekly “Reading is Dino-mite” summer reading program at Rappahannock County Library. The children are reading a record number of books - even checking out 344 books in one day. Seven to nine prizes are given out each week during the random drawings. These prizes have been made possible by the generosity of local businesses and community groups. These groups include the Washington Baptist Church, the Mothering ..Cooperative, the Church Mouse, Country Heritage, the Trading Post, Country Manor, Cabin Fever Books, Chipmunk Hollow, RAAC, Mountainside Market, That Sperryville Emporium, Roger Bat chelder, the Theatre at Washington, Va., Faith Mountain, Trinity Episcopal Church, St. Peter’s Catholic Mission, the Country Cafe, Eileen Day and Rush River. The weekly programs have featured Virginia Scott, a folk dramatist, who kicked off this year’s program with her wonderful rendition of folk songs. Eileen Day captivated her audience with her tale of Paul Bunyan, who with his blue ox, Babe, performed various super-human feats; Cindy Andreoni entertained the children with a varied program of stories, poems, and songs. Everyone is welcome to attend the programs, which will continue at 10 a.m. Aug. 7 and Aug. 14. The closing program will be held at 7 p.m. Aug. 21. PTO Continued from page A-1 He added that besides goals of expanding their membership base, the group has changed meeting times, sites and the group’s structure. “Parents and teachers are invited to attent the monthly meetings,” the chairman said, though for parents and teachers unable to attend the meetings, two annual family-style picnic conferences are planned for their benefit. Working with 10 committees and volunteers, the PTO plans to conduct monthly executive meetings. Besides chairman Greg Robertson and co-chairperson Joan Platt, new to the PTO are the enrichment and cultural committee, chaired by Jean Falk-Morgan; the resource committee, chaired by Laurie Marshall; the hospitality committee, chaired by Margaret Baumgardner and co-chaired by Janet Smoot; new secretary Sandra Antony; newsletter chairperson Kay Robertson; bulletin board chairperson Peggy Shadier and treasurer Helen (Holly) May. The group has already elected this year’s officers, but it still needs volunteers to help with the various events held throughout the school year. Parents and teachers interested in helping with any committee can volunteer on fee day or contact the committee person from the list enclosed in PTO packets available on fee day. “We always need volunteers,” co-chairperson Joan Platt said, adding “volunteers need only give their time and it usually just a little bit of time.” Donating a few hours of time to bake goods, help with the teacher dinner, sell items at a bake sale, assist with a school dance or party, offer help at fee day or provide assistance during a PTO function is part of volunteer duty. “We have some terrific volunteers,” Kay Robertson said, adding some do not have children in the schools, just a desire to help. “We need many volunteers,” Mr. Robertson said, adding “the more volunteers, the better the group functions.” Helping with the county’s elementary school fee day on Aug. 29, PTO committee members and volunteers will be on hand to talk with parents about committees, volunteers and volunteering.

Another change this school year is in delivery of bi-monthly PTO newsletters. Newsletters will be mailed this year instead of being sent via children from school. Parents and teachers need to sign-up for the newsletter delivery on fee day. “One difficult thing in the past was getting people to attend every meeting,” he said, adding this year the new schedule calls for two family-type meetings at Rappahannock County Park in the form of a picni^ with guest speakers from the schools and the county government agencies and games for the children. ‘There will be one in the fall and one in the spring,” he said, adding the first conference is Saturday, Oct. 5. School superintendent David Gangel is guest speaker. Families are invited to attend, bring their own meals or buy food on the grounds. “We need the ideas of parents and teachers in this community,” he said, adding “we are all part of the same educational system. We all have a stake in the education in this county. “The cornerstone of any PTO organization is communication and it works both ways,” he said, explaining teacher participation is important “because parents are the outsiders. We need feedback from the teachers who are the educational professionals.” “In this way, we can learn to support the teachers by learning what they do,” enrichment and cultural chairman Mrs. Falk-Morgan said. The day in the park includes a presentation by Dr. Gangel, a question-answer session, discussion on school topics of concern, such as the need for a middle school in Rappahannock County. While parents and teachers participate in discussion and listen to speakers, children can participate in games, such as relay races and sackraces, listen to storytelling, have their faces painted, take a hay ride around the park or play on the park equipment. “This is a time to gain knowledge and become more actively involved with your children and their school,” Mr. Robertson said.

Janet Lynn Jenkins-Dodson is working this summer for the Rappahannock County Historical Society. Society hires intern The Rappahannock Historical Society has hired Janet Lynn Jenkins-Dodson for the summer. Miss Jenkins-Dodson has been spending long hours on the Society’s computer compling the cemetery inventories for the county, as well as filing, meeting the public, and other necessary chores. Miss Jenkins-Dodson is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles E. and Linda Dodson. She is a 1991 graduate of Rappahannock High School and plans to attend Bridgewater College as a freshman in the fall, with an accounting-business major. Tank Continued from page A-1 needed another $30,500. Buying the tank all at once would save $11,100 in finance charges, he said. Earlier Treasurer Frances Foster noted that $21,600 had been returned to the county from last year’s school budget. She suggested that it be set aside in a school construction fund for a middle school. The supervisors favored using this fund to cover capital expenses for schools, expenses such as the tank, but Dr. Gangel said he believed most of that money was carryover of funds for federal programs and flow-through money for Piedmont Technical School. The supervisors voted to appropriate money to buy the vault, and Dr. Gangel said he would come back with information on how much of the surplus from last year’s budget would be available for it. Hampton District representative Mike Massie said Mrs. Foster’s idea was a good one. “We need to think about setting money aside for that day when we have to think about getting a new school,” he said. The supervisors also voted to adopt new fees for those applying for land use taxation. The fees are designed to cover the cost to the Commissioner of Revenue’s Office to process the applications. The filing fee, which is paid at the beginning of each assessment period, has been $5 per applicant per year. Under the new fee schedule it will go to $6.50 per parcel per year. This higher fee is also supposed to cover a portion of the cost of computerizing the records in the Commissioner of Revenue and Treasurer’s offices. Following a joint pu’ lie h aring with the Town Council in the evening the town and county adopted a resolution to include two parcels from the LOMP subdivision entirely in the town and to add a portion of a parcel owned by Newbill Miller if it turns out to be split by the towncounty boundary. Mr. Miller said he thought the maps were showing at least one concrete monument in the wrong place. He said he believed his lot was already in the town, but if a portion of it is outside, he wants it in the town. Claybert Smoot said that the Town Council had told him it could not guarantee that if he moved his land inside the town he would get another building lot. He said if he couldn’t get a lot, he preferred to leave part of his land in the county. No other landowners spoke at the hearing, and the board and council agreed not to add portions of lots to the town unless the owners request it. Also following the evening public hearing the supervisors decided to wait another 60 days before voting on a county seal. Thomas Tepper’s design with a tractor as the crown of a shield had gathered the most support at a straw poll in Amissville. The state seal is currently used on county stationery. It is the size of a quarter. “If you are trying to depict any one of these in a seal the size of a quarter, you will lose some detail,” board chairman Hubert Gilkey said. The extended time period will allow others to submit entries and those who have already sent in designs to modify them if they wish. At Monday’s meeting the supervisors also learned that the Justice Department had replied to the county’s redistricting plan saying that the Attorney General has no objections at this time. ‘That’s as close to approval as you’re going to get,” County Admin istrator John McCarthy told the board members. The supervisors also decided to deny a claim by Frank R. McGhee for the county to pay to repaint his house because dust from trucks carrying debris to an illegal stump dump had defaced it. Mr. McGhee had sent estimates ranging from $700 to $1,360 for the painting. “I don’t feel it is a matter of concern to the board,” Mr. Gilkey said. “If Mr. McGhee has a claim, it’s against the hauler or the owner of the stump dump.” Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke agreed and added, “In my opinion even if you wanted to pay it, I don’t find any authority to advise you, you can legally pay this claim.” The board asked Mr. Luke to wnte Mr. McGhee explaining the board’s position. The board learned that reassessment notices will be mailed out in late September or October and that the cable TV francise will be ready for public hearing by the September or October board meeting. The September meeting was changed to Wednesday Sept. 4 because the normal meeting date would be the Labor Day holiday.

Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Coming computerization will speed job of Commissioner of Revenue Beverly Atkins. Revenue Continued from page A-1 file them with Ms. Atkins’ office, and she says about 75 percent do come through her office. In order to get county stickers for their cars, residents have to bring their registration cards to Ms. Atkins’ office. In that way her office has information for personal property taxes. The vehicles are assessed according to values published by the National Automobile Dealers Association. She gets print-outs of that information also cross-referenced with computer tapes supplied by the Division of Motor Vehicles. By mid-July her office is ready to send off new information to be included in the land and personal property books. By mid-August the books are back and are checked. Any changes that were missed are noted and the firm than prepares the tax bills. Then she starts noting changes in land ownership recorded in Circuit Court Clerk Diane Bruce’s office. Her office has completed land transfers through the end of June, but they will continue to note changes in land ownership to see that the bills go to the new owners. Soon her office will start processing applications for landowners w'ho want to participate in the land use program. Since this is a reassessment year, new land use values will be used and landowners must reapply. These applications must be in by Nov. 1. Once the reassessment is finished, the Board of Assessors and the assessment company’s appraisers will take over a portion of Ms. Atkins office to hold hearings. Ms. Atkins said December is “catch up” month, making sure the office is ready to begin the new year. Once she and Treasurer Frances Foster have their new computers, the middleman firm will be eliminated and it will be possible to keep records more current, but Ms. Atkins believes the office may lose some of its personal touch, as more information is transferred electronically. Most of the year the work keeps Ms. Atkins, Mrs. Murray and a halftime assistant busy. “Four years have come and gone rapidly,” she said. “I can’t believe it’s election time again. I appreciate the support the citizens have given me and hope they will continue to support me.” Wakefield Continued from page A-1 “It’s not very likely that there could be two (Wakefields),” said Mr. Longyear. But Dr. Clarke said, “We still have a full complement of dedicated teachers,” and put the figure at about 75 percent of last year’s school faculty. New teachers have been hired to replace those who have resigned, he said. The three new sites, he said, would serve “at least 90 percent” of the students, and a majority would have a shorter bus ride, he said. “The Wakefield School we had last year will be opening on another site, barring [a] settlement,” said Dr. Clarke.

Dr. Clarke, spokesman for the Wakefield board because board chairman Lynn Hopewell has been hospitalized, said that the coming year will be a “time of transition.” Dr. Clarke said that one donor has offered the current board a free 75-acre site on which to build a new school. “Nobody said it was going to be easy,” he added. Both Mr. Longyear and Dr. Clarke conceded that they expected to lose students at the two planned Wakefields. Mr. Longyear blamed the board for alienating as many as half of the parents. Neither would speculate as to how many students their Wake* field would have. “We felt all along that Mrs. Lynn would be running the school when it opened in the fall," said Mr. Longyear. Asked about funding, Dr. Clarke said “It won’t be easy,” and Mr. Longyear said, “I just don’t have the answer right now. Wakefield School just doesn’t have a wealthy population, it’s never had enough money.” - New vet's practice focuses * efforts on large-sized livestock! By LISA G. CURRIE Rappahannock News Staff Writer Rappahannock County horses, beef cattle, sheep and goats can welcome a new doctor to their sick beds, Flint Hill veterinarian Todd Burdick. While his practice is new to Rappahannock, his name and face may be familiar to many. Bom in upstate New York, Dr. Burdick attented Cornell University for undergraduate work receiving his doctorate in veterinarian medicine from Virginia Tech. After a period of time in Florida, he worked in Warrenton before taking a position as state veterinarian for West Virginia. He has lived in Rappahannock County for three years. He began his practice here in June, operating from his home, Skyview Farm, and from his truck which has been converted into a mobile infirmary. He plans to specialize in large animals, horses, sheep, goats, and beef cattle. “We will use the library at home as a supply area but most of the work will be with large animals so the practice is pretty easily mobile,” he said, between calls from local livestock owners. While Dr. Burdick plans office hours from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. MondayFriday, he also understands the need for emergency services and plans to respond around the clock. “Anyone can leave a message on my telephone machine,” he said, explaining the emergency number, 1800-388-3470, is answered by a service and contacts his pager immediately. Other service calls should be directed to 675-3149. “I will try to work with others schedules,” he said, adding veterinarian hours are like a doctors, nights and weekends are necessary. Until mid-August, Dr. Burdick is only part-time in the county, as he presently is finishing his position as state veterinarian in West Virginia, working at the Charleston Race Track. Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Todd Burdick specializes in treating large animals. “I love horses and cattle,” he said, explaining he was raised on a large farm and became familiar with care for them at a young age. “I enjoy caring for animals and becoming a vet was a good way to mesh the two together,” he said. Presently, he and his wife share their home with five horses, five head of cattle, three dogs and one black cat. * Mrs. Fannon Continued from page A-1 “I didn’t know the first thing about running a store,” the petite woman with greying hair and laughing eyes said. Mrs. Fannon chuckles softly remembering her first days on the job. She remembered the first day after spending many months on renovation, when the store was ready to receive its first customers. jRappafjannotfe J2etos offers FAX MACHINE SERVICES j To send information: j Any U.S. destination i $5.00 first sheet i $2.00 each additional sheet \ To receive fax information: $4.00 first sheet $1.00 each additional sheet Rappahannock Jietosf Main St. Washington, VA 703/675-3338 Fax: 675-3088 ^2 WEDDING STATIONERY INVITATIONS • ANNOUNCEMENTS NAPKINS • BRIDAL BOOKS ACCESSORIES ftappafjannocfe J^etos Stop by our office on Main Street .Washington, VA and we can help you plan your entire wedding. 703-675-3338 “The men came from delivery and gave me the order forms,” she said, adding, “I handed them back unopened. I did not know what to order or how.” “Everyone was so patient with me,” she said, adding after a few rough spots things began to run more smoothly. Mrs. Fannon’s one desire is to see the store run smoothly. Born in Washington, D.C., Mrs. Fannon has roots far into the county’s family tree. Her great-greatgrandfather was Posy Wayland, superintendent at the county poor farm. Her mother was from Culpeper County and her father from Madison. “I was a wife and a mother,” she said with pride, adding she moved to Rappahannock, and Laurel Hill, in 1967. “The store was always here,” she said, remembering the nights she would dash in at closing for a loaf of bread or a bottle of milk. In 1987 she got a chance to purchase it. “First the buyers were going to leave it a store,” she said, adding after a change in fortunes, they decided to renovate the store into apartments. “I just couldn’t see the place go,” she said. And she didn’t. Within the year, Mrs. Fannon wasowmer. “And I love it,” she said, spreading her arms wide to encompass the whole building. Starting with the renovations, Mrs. Fannon’s work began. The store had rotted beams and flooring in need of replacement. New plaster added to the interior and landscaping as well as new gas pumps outside took time to complete. “I wanted to save as much of the original as possible,” she said with a smile. Laurel Mills Store has a cornerstone that dates 1877. Once a thriving wool mill, the store is documented as “one of the only surviving brick and stone stores in the Piedmont area in Virginia, as w ell as one of the oldest stores, still in use, in Rappahannock County.” “I’m so proud of what I have,” she said of her store, not a supermarket but a stopping point for those who need an item or two, gasoline and deli items. “I’ve learned a great deal since that first day,” she said, adding her total the first night was near $150,000. “Boy, I did not know how to void my mistakes so I just kept ringing things up,” she said with laughter. Since those early days, the store has grown. Nowadays clerks have been hired. Distributors have become familiar faces. Customers come from far and wide. With the upstairs running smoothly, Mrs. Fannon is ready to open the gallery, “Down Under Laurel Mills Store.” Sitting in the stone basement or\ a newly-laided brick floor replacing the original brick floor, she explains the work involved in renovation. “My husband, Bill, sandblasted the walls,” she said, describing a process that removed the old lime whitewash. Photos show the place before renovation resembled an abandoned storeage areaReorganization came next. The original wide-wooden lowclearance door will remain, new windows were added; steel beams replaced the rotted wooden posts. It’s ready for antiques, reproduction furniture, sculpture, oil paintings, cotton blankets and silver jewelery, dried flowers and wrought iron items. “It’s going to be one of those places where people can stop when they forgot to get a gift while in town,” she said, adding “it’s more or less country items.” The basement of Laurel Mills store was once a bar, the cement trough in the comer remains a witness to their bottles placed inside before the cement was dry. Leaving the remains intact, she hopes to rqjstore the trough to its original and use it as display. “I want to put a card table in the comer,” Mrs. Fannon said, so if someone stops by, they “can play cards.” “Since it’s so totally out of the way, I don’t expect a great deal of walk-in traffic,” she said with laugther. “But I want people to come see.” The gallery’s opening will be in October. “It’s been so much work,” she said looking around her store with pride. “f don’t think anyone believed I would do it,” she said of her family. “But, I did. And, I think I am doing everything all right,r she said.

Cuttin' the rug Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Dancers jammed to the sounds of Cross Country before the town birthday fireworks. Learning center art project gives kids hands-on learning Child Care and Learning Center (CCLC) students, staff and classrooms have quite a bit to show for their summer work. The school’s, attendents, ranging in age from three to 11, with the help of local sculptress Maggie Morris, artist-in-residences, have nearly completed a statue for the school, a soapstone bird and triptych, a framed relief-form wall hanging. Working at the school for four hours daily, Ms. Morris has accomplished several different activites with the children. “The children have been really excited and have liked the idea,” CCLC executive director Rose Ann Sharp said. Ms. Morris is funded through a grant by the Virginia Commission for the Arts and through CCLC. “What the grant has allowed for us is to have a professional artist working here,” Mrs. Sharp said, adding through this not only have the students benefited but the “staff has learned to teach art through a variety of npediums. ” Since June, the artist has completed art exercies and conducted field trips to her gallery in Castleton and to Middle Street Artists Cooperative in Washington. “The kids have been great,” Ms. Morris said with pride, adding during field trips the children were given experience with using such items as a air hammer, chisels and small drills. “Even the little kids were given a chance,” the artist said, explaining the exercise gave them “a feel for the tools for later work.” Since her work began at the gallery, Ms. Morris has conducted several different types of sculpture with the students. The large soapstone bird perched upon the piano was chiseled and shaped by three-year old hands and minds. “They said the stone looked like a bird,” Ms. Morris said, adding for this reason they carved a bird. With her guidance the children took turns* working on the bird until its final shape was made. The bird was mounted by Kramer and Eiland in Washington. Framing another of the children’s work, the woodworkers will frame the complete triptych. “It’s a series of things,” Ms. Morris said, explaining each group of children worked on the triptych — a series of tiles combined to form one piece — at different levels. Masks, animal shapes and abstract colors and forms complete the triptych final shape. “The five-year-old children did the abstracts,” she said, explaining the second group of children did animal shapes and the oldest children made masks. The clay shapes are then cast into form. The child receives one and one will accent the final form, set on bronze inside a wooden frame. The triptych will be on display in Ms. Morris’s upcoming October show at Middle Street Artist Cooperative. “My show will be in the front room and this piece will be on the back wall," she said with pride. After the show, the piece will return to the center. The final project the children made with the artist is a two-foot tall statue, created in clay but casted in bronze. “I took a poll of what was important to the children and the school,” Ms. Morris said, adding together they decided hugging, family and animals wrere important. Thus, the figure shows two faceless characters, one standing above the other, sitting, while the one sitting cradles a rabbit. “It was what the children wanted,” Ms. Morris said, adding “they did the work on this piece. I smoothed some of the rough spots but they really did the work.” “They really enjoyed the work,” she said, adding several times when the activity was over the children would want to continue the artwork, not wanting to run or play at the swings. “The final casting will be displayed at the school,” the artist said, adding the mold will be kept if anyone is interested in buying another for themselves. Ms. Morris continues her artistin-residence position until the first week of August. From there, she begins her work with children at Camp Fanstastic in Front Royal at the 4-H Education Center. It's curtains for Olde Towne Company leaves Washington; job move cited The Qlde Towne Theatre Company has severed all connection with Washington and The Theatre at Washington, Va. The theater group was composed of several local artists - such as Dinah Day and Howard Coon -as well as those from Warrenton, Front Royal and other areas. It was directed and produced by Frank and Sheree Kren, previously of Washington. Leaving their Rappahannock County home behind, the Krens have relocated their family and thencompany in Manassas. “We’d thought about leaving for about four months” before the early June move, producer, director and teacher Mrs. Kren said. Working with her husband, Mrs. Kren conducted twice-weekly acting classes as well as acted in, produced and directed two plays in Rappahannock County. A third production allowed acting students to act before an audience. The theater duo came to Rappahannock County last year hoping to Strange Snow [was] one of our best performances. Dinah Day and Howard Coon were fabulous and we hope to re-open the show in this area in the future. ’ — Sheree Kren Olde Towne Theatre establish a professional theater group as well as bring theater professionals from New York and Washington, D.C. to the familiar Rappahannock stage. “We were real disappointed and dissatisfied with several things,” Mrs. Kren said, adding low theater turn-out was not the only thing that “convinced us to move back to Manassas.” Contributing to their decision to move was Mr. Kren’s new position with Watergate Hotel in D.C. “The move has helped to get us closer to Washington and Frank’s new job,” Mrs. Kren said. “We will continue our theater efforts here,” Mrs. Kren said, adding while turn-out was low for their final production, “Strange Snow,” it “remains one of our best performances. Dinah Day and Howard Coon were fabulous and we hope to re-open the show in this area in the future.” “We are in the process of scouting out a place” for theater production in the Northern Virginia area, Mrs. Kren said. According to Wendy Weinberg, owner of the theater, no lease was required from the company and future productions are planned at the theater. Talent show ; benefit draws i on local talent ! ■ " i . ; By MARK SCOLFORO ! Rappahannock New* Staff Writer i The entertainment fare being cooked up fori the annual benefit variety show for the Rappa-i hannock Association for the Arts and the Community (RAAC) will have a slightly different flavotf this year, but the goal hasn’t changed: to raise money for the association. ' ; In past years the variety show held open au-i ditions, but this year event coordinator Bob Scott opted to solicit performances from those who have proven to be popular entertainers on RAAC stages in the past. .: For example, scenes from Shakespeare’s “As You Like It” will be rendered by county actor’s Susan Estes, Howard Coon, Dinah Pehrson-Day, Jody Carbone, Jimmy Foster and Mike Mahoney; “We wanted to pick people who have given good performances and to develop some youngeii actors,” such as Miss Estes and Mr. Foster, said Mr. Scott. The benefit will be held at 8 p.m. Saturday* Aug. 17, in The Theatre at Washington, Va. Tick-! ets are $5 for adults, $2.50 for students and chil-i dren and are available at Mountainside Market} and RAAC’s office on Gay Street in Washington. J Other performances include Waldron O’Con-i nor as George Washington in the opening scene,' conveying a message to the people of Rappahannock County. Charlie Tompkins, said Mr. Scott, “was called out of retirement to play some bluegrass guitar and sing.” Mr. Coon and Mrs. Pehrson-Day, in addition to the half-hour of Shakespeare, will also do a scene from a Neil Simon play. Mrs. Pehrson-Day pleads for her life during a scene from Shawls “Saint Joan.” Lyric soprano Lisa Johnson, with a piano accompanist, will sing a medley of show tunes written by composers such as Gershwin, Cole Porter and Leonard Bernstein. Virginia Scott’s dramatized folk songs promise to captivate the audience, presented in an enchanting, sometimes humorous, always original fashion. Bob and Virginia Scott will provide the comic relief during a humorous sketch.

No doubt, however, they will soon return to their comfortable spot on the beach, protected by the shadow of their umbrella, where the sand cannot scorch their feet, nor the sun burn their skin. No matter what the season, we need a place of comfort... a place of solace ... a refuge from the pressures of everyday. Enter God's house knowing that you shall find a place of comfort and relief. In Isaiah 25:4-5, we are assured that God is our "shade from the heat". . . and Isaiah praises God as he further proclaims "thou dost subdue the noise of the aliens as heat by the shade of a cloud." Seek your solace in the shadow of the protective love of our Almighty Father. Worship Him this week. You will find comfort in His house.

Advent of peach season brings smiles By HELEN W. SMITH Rappahannock Neva Contributing Writer “Pretty as a peach”. . .“Peaches and cream complexion”. . .“Peachy keen”. . .Many more quotes have equated the peach with beauty and goodness. A “peach” is a dear friend or a good day is just “peachy.” According to my co-worker and agricultural agent, Tommy Williams, this year’s local peach crop should be a bountiful and good quality one. Mr. Williams also said that this year’s peach and apple season should be a week early because of the early spring. Peach nutrition Fresh peaches are beneficial to a healthy and active lifestyle. Plan to have plenty of fresh, juicy and nutritious peaches during summer’s warm days. For only 50 calories per five ounces, a peach is packed with nutrients, such as carbohydrates. Almost HOME ECONOMICS 100 percent of the calories in a peach are from carbohydrates. Carbohydrates provide a quick source of energy. Fructose, the natural sugar in fruits, and fiber are the carbohydrates in peaches. Peaches are a source of vitamins A and C. They are also high in potassium and very low in sodium. Selecting peaches Look for peaches with fresh creamy or golden undercolor. A rosy blush is pretty, but “red” does not mean “ripe” and the varieties’ blushes differ. Avoid peaches with wrinkles, brownish spots, or traces of green on their skin. There are two types of peaches: clingstone and freestone. A clingstone peach does just what its name says - the flesh (fruit) clings to the stone (pit). Clingstone peaches are grown primarily for processing. In freestone peaches, the predominant fresh variety, the fruit does not cling to the pit. More than 25 peach varities are grown in orchards throughout Rappahannock County. Some of the most popular ones are sunhighs, rio-oso-gem, lorins, marqueens, and redhavens.

Peach pointers Peeling: If a recipe calls for peeled peaches, submerge peaches into boiling water about 20 seconds, remove from slotted spoon and plunge immediately into cold water. The skins should slip right off. Preserving color: To keep peaches bright and fresh looking, dip or sprinkle with citrus juice or commerical ascorbic acid mixture. Pureeing: Halve and pit fresh unpeeled peaches, slice into blender with dash of lemon juice and whirl. Use as a base for drinks, sauces and other recipes. Freezing: Savor fresh peach flavor for long winter months. Freeze peeled and quartered peaches. Stir one quart fruit with 1 to 1-1/2 tablespoons commercial ascorbic acid mixture. Mix gently but thoroughly. Pack peaches in plastic freezer bags. Freeze in single layer until frozen, then stack. The following recipes are from some local ladies. Enjoy them during peach season!

Weather watch: Both the 1st and 2nd will be fair and warm, followed by storms the 3rd and 4th. A period of fair, pleasant days arrives 5-9, with 10-14 partly cloudy, cooler. Then look out for showers and storms 15, 16 and again 20, 21; 25, 26 and 31. The days in between will be quite warm and humid, typical August heat. Tornado watch: In our Mid-Atlantic region be on the lookout for severe thunderstorms and high winds 3,4; 15, 16 and 20, 21. The Dog Days which traditionally began July 3rd, end just as traditionally Sunday, Aug. 11th. Full moon: Full moon this month rises at 5:07 a.m. D.S.T. on the 25th, and is known as the com moon inasmuch as ears are now in full tassel. The heavenly fireworks known as the perseids, commonly called “shooting stars” and averaging one per minute, put on their display in late July and early August as the earth passes through the tail of comet swift-tuttle. In the garden: Be sure to “recycle” as much as possible, putting all ugust 8,1991 DO garden refuse into the compost pile for replenishing the soil. Enjoy the sun-filled last days of summer as we head into the Labor Day weekend, but be sure not to overdo in the heat of the day. Rest occasionally. J.

Main St. in Culpeper is tucked away in one of the town’s older buildings and is conspicuous only in its simplicity. Several small rooms house a computer or two, a good number of law books and some old furniture, certainly not up to standards displayed in most offices. However, lack of opulent surroundings doesn’t faze the office’s staff of five, who work long hours for meager pay to provide legal services for the poor. The Culpeper office has seen some dramatic changes over its 11 years of operation. It appears that with the increase in numbers of poor people over the last decade, their legal problems have grown as well. Yet, legal aid offices, burdened with growing caseloads ever year, have been consistently denied increased federal funding. The situation came to a head recently when the Virginia Commonwealth Survey Research Laboratory published a survey with some overwhelming statistics, which came as no surprise to veterans of the legal aid field. According to the 1991 survey, 84 percent of indigent clients still lack the legal help they need, despite that 70 percent of all Virginia lawyers are already providing legal services to the poor. The survey also states that only oneTourth of the low-income respondents were aware that some free legal services are available and nearly half of the attorneys surveyed said they thought legal aid offices in their area were not able to meet the legal needs of low-income people. The growing crisis of lack of adequate legal help for the poor has prompted Virginia Supreme Court Chief Justice Harry L. Carrico to approach every member of the Virginia State Bar to deliver the message of the new' Virginia Pro Bono Initiative. In his letter, Carrico relates that the State Bar Council has unanimously adopted a definition and standard for pro bono (the waiving of free or agreement to charge nominal fees for legal services) legal services that encourages Virginia lawyers to donate approximately two percent of professional time to performing pro bono legal services. Carrico goes on to ask Virginia attorneys to join in this endeavor and volunteer, either through their local bar-sponsored program, or the legal services office in their area. The severe recession in many parts of the country over the last 18 months and a decade of federal financial neglect has left the pro bono program facing budget cuts and subject to the vagaries of politics. Funded by the Legal Services Corp., which, in turn, is federally funded, Rappahannock Legal Services extends its. long arm of assistance all the way to the Chesapeake Bay. The main office is in Fredericksburg, with branches in Culpeper and Tappahannock. The Culpeper office, which opened in 1980, is responsible for Planning District 9, (Culpeper, Fauquier, Orange, Madison and Rappahannock counties.) Culpeper’s managing attorney, Jamie Aliperti, has worked in the field of legal aid since his graduation from William and Mary Law School some 10 years ago. Besides Aliperti, another attorney, Monica Chernin, paralegal Katherine McCartin, secretary Susan K. Neelands and part-time probono coordinator Elizabeth Van Wambeck round out the busy staff. In 1990, the Culpeper office served 1,137 clients, of whom 294 ' were from Fauquier County. According to Aliperti, Rappahannock Legal Services handles only civil cases that generally fall in seve ral categories: housing, health, consumer cases, family and income maintenance. To qualify for the program, incomes must be at or below 125 percent of the federally defined poverty line: $15,875 annually for a four-person household. “People who need legal help the most are very rich or very poor,” said Aliberti. "The rich can afford it, and the poor cannot.” While some believe that free legal aid for the poor is an extension of the welfare state, in reality, explained Aliperti, it is just the opposite. “Our goal is to make people independents so they don’t have to apply for welfare,” said Aliperti. “Actually, less than one-third of our clients are actually receiving some sort of welfare,” he added. “A typical client here is a woman with two or three small children, who is holding down several jobs and is spending 50 percent of her income just for rent," he said. “Our goal is to get income into a household to stabilize it by getting this woman’s husband to pay proper child support or getting them established with Aid to Families with Dependent Children,” he said. Almost half of the Culpeper office’s cases are family cases and almost 80 percent of the clients are women. “The feminization of poverty is very much with us today,” said Aliperti. “There is a popular conception that the poor are generally unemployed men riding the rails. That is not an accurate picture of who the poor are today.” Aliperti predicts that Rappahannock Legal Services is on its way to serving 1,500 clients in PD9 this year. “These 1,500 are just scratching the surface of the numbers of clients who need our assistance,” said Aliperti. “Plus, we are already swamped with just the one-fifth of the poor population who know about us.” Rappahannock Legal Services has an annual budget approximately $500,000. “Our costs keep going up, yet we receive the same amount of money every year,” said Aliperti, who personally earns $110,000 a year. “Our small staff cannot possibly handle the work. One way we are able to give some level of service is through our pro bono panel.” Currently, 59 attorneys in PD9 serve on the pro bono panel of Rappahannock Legal Services, mafiy of whom take three or four referrals a year. A large number of these attorneys are from Fauquier County. Attorneys donating time are eligible to receive state tax credits through the Neighborhood Assistance Act equal to 50 percent of their donated hours times at an hourly rate that was increased to $100 per hour July 1. Ms. Van Wambeck heads up the accelerated pro bono effort for PD9. She is recruiting more attorneys to take pro bono cases, in addition to trying to get every attorney in the PI)9 to take at least one case a year. “If we had all these attorneys taking one case a year, service to low-income families could be expanded by more than 150 cases per year,” said Ms. Van Wambeck. Legal services to the poor in this country dates back to the 1600s, and throughout the years has evolved in fits and starts. Famous legal minds such as Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry felt strongly that lawyers had a duty to represent clients who were otherwise unable to pay, but it wasn’t until the late 1800s that the first legal aid society was formed in New York City. Historically, during times of prosperity, legal aid to the poor has been perceived as unimportant. Conversely, during difficult economic times, the concept and the need gathers enormous momentum. Loan closet concludes annual fund campaign The Rappahannock Loan Closet concluded its annual summer fundraising campaign with the awarding of prizes last weekend. The first prize of $50 went to Kent Reeve of Washington. Second prize, a framed watercolor donated by Lois Manookian, went to Clydetta Lynn of Huntly. A framed oil painting by Eloise Coates went to Mary' Beth Williams of Flint Hill, who also won the healing touch massage, the contribution of Dan Lewis. 1 Sarah Davidson of Culpeper was given the Clore walnut footstool. Susan Laing of Amissville received the patchwork bear from Chipmunk Hollow and Teddy Smoot of Chester Gap got the two azaleas from Long Mountain Nursery. The wash bowl and pitcher, donated by That Sperryville Emporium, went to Ethel Bailey of Washington. James Stringfellow of Amissville was given the split basket and decoy from Country Manor. Cindy Wharton of Amissville was given the $10 certificate from Mountainside Market and John Schultz, Washington, received a case of oil from B&B Service Center. The Loan Closet members appreciate the support of area citizens as well as contributors, and declared the event a great success. This non-profit organization uses all funds realized for the purchase of additional equipment to be loaned free of charge to county residents. However, contributions are accepted.

4-H reps attend first Congress Amissville’s Jerri Mallory, 13, and her mother Linda were the first Rappahannock 4-H representatives to 4-H Intermediate Congress in Harrisonburg July 18-21. “I don’t think anyone from this county has ever gone before,” extension agent, home ecomnomics, Helen Smith said, explaining the three day congress at Eastern Mennonite College in Harrisonburg is patterened after 4-H Congress attended by teens though competition is not part of the program. “This year the workshops and programs are centered around an international theme," Mrs. Smith said, adding each year the congress takes on a new theme. “The World Around Me” features workshops on international culture, foods from around the world, music from various nations, and international exhibits and Speakers. “This is an educational program for intermediate age groups,” Mrs. Smith said, explaining the workshops or activities help to build a student’s self-esteem, make friends not just from another culture but from other parts of the state, build confidence and educate. “The congress objective is to expand the vision of 4-H opportunties,” she said. 4-H Intermediate Congress is for students 11 to 13 years in age.
