Wood war d%tefted by2-to-1 margin; mix-up at the polls By MARK SCOLFORO Rappahannock News Staff Writer Incumbent Sheriff John Henry Woodward will return for a third term in office following a 1,536-to791 victory over Roger Cordani. In what was the most closely-watched election in Rappahannock, Sheriff Woodward won five of six precincts and collected 66 percent of the votes tallied. Also, confusion at two precincts early Tuesday caused a handful of county voters to cast ballots in the wrong state senate race. Mr. Cordani won Chester Gap by one vote and came within 31 votes of taking his home precinct, Amissville, but Sheriff Woodward won decisively in the other four precincts, even winning Scrabble by a 251-vote margin out of 463 cast there. “I’m very happy, and I’m grateful to all the people of Rappahannock who helped elect me again,” said Sheriff Woodward after the final results were in Tuesday night. He said the results meant he should “keep providing the services I’ve been providing and improve where I can.” Mr. Cordani said late Tuesday < night he has no regrets. “All I can say is we gave it our best shot and came up short,” but conceded that he “thought it would be closer.” “I’m going to take more than a couple of days off, rest my leg and spend some time with my family,” said Mr. Cordani. He left the door open to possibly return to challenge Sheriff Woodward in 1995. “In four more years we’ll see what the county looks like. I’ll be keeping a close eye on how things go,” said Mr. Cordani. Sheriff Woodward said that as a result of the election he will make at least one change, instituting regular community meetings starting in January. In other election results from Rappahannock, all five incumbent supervisors, Bob Anderson, Pete Estes, Ellis Bingham, Mike Massie and Hubert Gilkey, were returned to office after running unopposed. The other four consitutional officers ran unopposed as well: Commissioner of the Revenue Beverly Atkins, Treasurer Frances Foster, Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter See ELECTIONS, p. A-3 Sen. McCarthy outlines his blueprint to win presidency Launched in county, campaign takes off By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer With one political season winding down, the next is getting under way. As President George Bush was gearing up for his reelection campaign, former Sen. Eugene McCarthy announced that he would join the growing field of candidates for the Democratic Party nomination. Mr. McCarthy first ran for the presidency in 1968 when, in opposition to the Vietnam War, he challenged then-President Lyndon Johnson for the Democratic Party’s nomination. He had unexpected success in that campaign, prompting New York Sen. Robert Kennedy to enter the race also opposing the war. By the time the 1968 election was over, Lyndon Johnson had with "drawn from the race, Sen. Kennedy had been assassinated, Hubert Humphrey had received the Democratic nomination and Richard Nixon had been elected president. In 1976, with the Democrats nominating Jimmy Carter, Mr. McCarthy decided to run as an Independent. That campaign concerned itself mainly with opening up the process to Independents and third parties. In 1980 Mr. McCarthy urged his supporters to vote for Republican nominee Ronald Reagan instead of President Carter. “Jimmy Carter ran against the Democratic Party,” Mr. McCarthy said in an interview at his home. Although Mr. McCarthy has a house outside Woodville, his voting resi dehce is in Minnesota. “In 1976 I was more in the tradition of the party than Jimmy Carter. I thought Carter was a disaster. He lost control of foreign policy and the Pentagon. Inflation was 13 percent. He was not even able to get SALT II through. I thought Reagan could do something about nuclear disarmament." Mr. McCarthy said he feels current moves toward nuclear disarmament are due to Reagan and the Iceland summit, when for the first time a goal of not merely freezing nuclear weapons at some future level but reducing them was announced. He said he also thought Reagan See SEN. MCCARTHY, p. A-6 Jerry Wood wins election in 31st District By SEBASTIAN SMITH and MARK SCOLFORO Arundel Newspapers Staff Writer Democrat Jerry Wood, a Warrenton pharmacist, took the 31st District House of Delegates seat Tuesday, with about 1,200 votes more than Republican candidate Robert Darby. Unofficial results showed Mr. Wood winning with 53.8 percent of the vote over Mr. Darby with 46.2 percent. Mr. Wood got 8,792 votes and Mr. Darby 7,544. The 31st District was created in the last redistricting process and includes all of Fauquier, except the precincts of Upperville and The Plains, all of Rappahannock and most of Warren. Mr. Wood, a lifelong area resident, had a base of support in Fauquier, where about 70 percent of the disrict’s population lives. He showed See DELEGATE, p.

Cable TV expected to be hooked up by end of '93 By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer The Board of Supervisors learned Monday that the county could have cable TV for most of the villages and nearby areas by Christmas 1993. County Administrator John McCarthy said that a committee made up of representatives from the county, Town of Washington, and Adelphia Communications had met and agreed on a francise, but the final draft of the agreement is not yet ready. Mr. McCarthy said the agreement called for the county and town to receive 3.5 percent of the gross revenues the company receives from providing service to Rappahannock. The funds would be split between the town and county according to the number of subscribers in each, he said. The area to be served would include Chester Gap, Flint Hill, Washington, Amissville and Sperryville. Several of the roads near those towns would also carry cable TV. The agreement calls for the company to expand into other areas when the population density justifies expansion, Mr. McCarthy added. The supervisors agreed to appoint members Robert Anderson, Charles K. “Pete” Estes and Ellis Bingham to a joint operating committee to oversee compliance with the agreement. The town would also appoint two members to the committee. The supervisors set 7 p.m. Monday Dec. 16 for a public hearing on the francise agreement. The supervisors received bad news from School Superintendent David Gangel. For the coming budget year, Rappahannock’s “Local Composite Index (LCI)” will be increased to See SUPERVISORS, p. A-2 New bypass in Sperryvilie is proposed By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer The Board of Supervisors agreed to postpone for a month consideration of a VDOT proposed route for a partial bypass of Sperryville. Piedmont District representative Charles K. “Pete” Estes asked has fellow members to table the plan. “In fairness to the people in the area, I’d like to hear what they have to say,” he said. The bypass would be for U.S. 522 and Route 231 traffic. Currently most of the cars travelling west on U.S. 211522 turn left and follow U.S. 522 through two left turns, at the Sperryville Exxon and Corner Store. The bypass would separate from U.S. 211 just east of Sperryville with a left turn and follow a curving path to rejoin U.S. 522 at a shallow angle just before Route 231 turns right. The proposed plan shows the bypass as a four-lane road at the intersection narSee BYPASS, p. A-2 /

Wilder has issued an order banning all outdoor fires in the entire state of Virginia, and there are reports that he may postpone hunting season at the end of the week unless it rains or snows. According to forest technician Ed Kowalski of the Madison office of the Department of Forestry, is it a misdemeanor to bum outdoors within 300 feet of a field containing grass or within 300 feet of woodland or brushland. He said the ban was put in place out of concern for what has happened in West Virginia, where fires have destroyed thousands of acres in recent weeks. The ban remains in effect until specifically lifted by the governor. Several major landowners in Rappahannock have closed their land to hunters. Hunting season for rifles is scheduled to begin Nov. 18. According to Sperryville attorney Bill Fletcher, farms closed to hunting include Thornton Hill, Montpelier, Mount Vernon Stock Farm, the Shade, and Pleasant View. The Rappahannock Hunt has postponed fox hunting indefinitely as well. Also this week: • The Saturday night Masquerade Ball at the Washington Fire Hall went off without a hitch, according to Rappahannock Sheriff John H. Woodward. Procedures for holding dances were altered last month after a series of fights broke out inside and outside the fire hall during and after a dance. Felony charges were filed after one man was hospitalized. But the last two dances have been peaceful, and Sheriff Woodward said he was satisfied with the new procedures. “If they go like it did Saturday they can continue as far as I’m concerned,” he said. • A Culpeper woman was injured in a two-car accident on Route 729 at 12:15 p.m. Nov. 3, according to Sgt. G.A. Morris of the State Police. Shirley Settle, 49, of Culpeper, was operating a 1988 Dodge pickup southbound on Route 729, 30 feet north of Route 640, when Donald Southerd, 30, of Castleton, pulled his 1978 Ford pickup out into her path, said Sgt. Morris. Ms. Settle was transported from the scene by helicopter. Southerd was charged by Trooper W.E. Walther with failure to yield the right-of-way. The Dodge was destroyed and the Ford sustained minor damages. • Eric Stamer, 30, of Sperryville was charged with reckless driving after a two-car accident on U.S. 211-522 at 10:30 a.m. Nov. 2, according to Sgt. Morris. Christine Parker, 21, of Warrenton, was operating a 1985 Volvo westbound when Stamer pulled out in front of her from the median strip, said Sgt. Morris. The Volvo sustained $4,000 in damage; Stainer’s 1990 Honda sustained $4,000 in damage also. No one was iryured. Trooper J.L. Mullins charged Stamer. • State Police are looking for the driver of a 1979 Ford pickup who fled the scene after an accident at 2 a.m. Nov. 2, according to Sgt. Morris. The pickup was on Route 729, one-half mile north of Route 638, when the driver lost control going around a curve and struck a fence belonging to Mary Williams of Flint Hill, said Sgt. Morris. The truck belongs to Eugenio Sanchez of Flint Hill, but he was not the driver, said Sgt. Morris. The pickup was destroyed and the fence sustained $400 in damages. Trooper Mullins is investigating.

Sijaature ii, r?ii Date Supervisors Continued from page A-1 .699, he said. This year it had been .6368. The LCI is the state’s formula for computing a locality’s ability to support public education. The new figure means that Rappahannock will be ranked 10th highest in the state in ability to pay for education, assistant superintendent Robert Chappell said. Using the new LCI the state will be contributing 30 percent of the cost of funding the “standards of quality” instead of the 36 percent it would have paid this year if the budget for education had not been cut. Mr. Chappell showed the super visors how the formula works. Figures from 1989 w ere used to figure the composite index for the coming year, he said. The major component of the index is the “true value of property.” In 1989 the state had a figure of $678 million for the value of property in Rappahannock. That works out to about $736,000 for each of the 921 students in Rappahannock’s schools that year, or about $104,000 for each person in the county. In comparison the state as a whole had $323 billion in “true value of property” that year, which works out to $330,000 per student and about $53,000 per person. The figures for adjusted gross income per student and per person also show Rappahannock above the state average, but not as much as the figures for property values. Only the figures for taxable retail sales per student and per person show Rappahannock below the state average, but those figures only account for about 10 percent of the Ld. Dr. Gangel said that he won’t know until after the General Assembly meets how' the new LCI will affect Rappahannock, but he added he believes it will mean another cut in funds from the state. Mr. McCarthy offered one piece of good news to partially counter the news on the LCI. He said that Del. Richard Cranwell had offered to introduce legislation in the next session of the General Assembly to allow localities to charge impact fees to help pay for new school construction. Mr. McCarthy said Del. Cranwell had indicated he would introduce such legislation if enough localities indicated they would support such a bill. The supervisors adopted a resolution supporting impact fees for school construction on a local option basis. The supervisors considered tax relief for the elderly. Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke explained that they could either exempt or defer a portion of taxes due for homeowners who are 65 or older and whose household income is less that $30,000 and whose net worth, excluding a house and one acre is $75,000 or less. He explained that they could lower those amounts, but not raise them. He said that homeowners who are disabled would also qualify for the tax relief. He added that if the UIFTRK1S5?

Col. Bingham indicated that he would prefer to exempt a percentage of taxes due. Other members said they would prefer a system for deferring the taxes. Mr. McCarthy and Commissioner of Revenue Beverly Atkins said they would look at ordinances from surrounding counties and make a recommendation at the December meeting. The supervisors also agreed to advertise a “request for proposals (RFP)” for the Enhanced E-911 system. Mr. McCarthy had prepared a RFP to be advertised for competitive negotiation. Bypass Continued from page A-1 rowing to two lanes shortly thereafter. However, it also shows that it could later be expanded to four lanes. The plan also involves cutting off through passage on Route 1002. A new bridge over the Thornton River would be built for the bypass, and the current bridge on Route 1002 would be taken out. The two sections of Route 1002 would end with cul-de-sacs. “I think 1 oppose closing 1002,” Mr. Estes said. “It would split Sperryville into two towns.” Supervisor Chairman Hubert Gilkey noted that if the bypass is truly a limited access road it would also cut the road that leads to the Sperryville sewage treatment plant. ihe plan would also involve extending the four-laning of U.S. 211 almost to the Sperryville Exxon. The supervisors asked Mr. Estes to bring back next month his recommendation on the proposed plan. If the supervisors endorse the plan they will pass a resolution in support and send a representative to the primary road hearing in Culpeper this spring to ask that it be included in the state’s plans for improvements to the primary roads. It would be several years before the road could be built, since it would probably be put at the end of a long list of road improvements in the state. Last year Mr. Estes spoke at that hearing in favor of the state doing preliminary design work on a plan for a bypass for U.S. 522 and Route 231. With all such traffic currently coming through the main intersection in Sperryville, traffic at the intersection in front of the Comer Store can be very heavy. Tractor trailors coming north on U.S. 522 have a problem negotiating the right turn and need the entire intersection to complete the turn. Mr. Estes said that he had a new “high water mark” on the concrete barrier beside his house. A truck left black tire marks only a few inches from the top of the wall over the past weekend.

Seventy percent of the 3,355 registered voters cast ballots, for a total of 2,360 voters participating this year. There was some confusion at the Scrabble and Sperryville precincts early in the day, as some of the voters who were supposed to cast ballots in new Virginia Senate districts were instead given ballots for their old districts. An undetermined, but certainly small, number of voters cast incorrect ballots before Mrs. Leake called down to the State Registrar in Richmond and got the problem straightened out. She said between 22 and 26 voters voted in the wrong district. Because of the margin of victory for Mr. Robb and Sen. Miller, the mix-up is not expected to throw their elections into doubt. The confusion came about because the General Assembly used the county’s old supervisor districts when redrawing lines this summer following the 1990 Census. Until an amendment is passed to correct the discrepancies, which occurred across the state, both Sperryville and Scrabble are split between the 25th and 26th districts. However, early in the day all voters in Sperryville were casting ballots in the HaynesMiller contest and all Scrabble voters were casting Robb-Michie ballots. Mrs. Leake said Wednesday morning that she was awaiting word from Richmond about the status of the voters who cast incorrect ballots. i&i Orchard .

As is our custom, we remember and honor our late farm foreman at this time of year on the anniversaries of his birth and his death. His skills and productivity were so admired that they have become almost legendary. What uniquely marked his work, however, was the joyfulness with which he did it. Often we have to pause to wonder: what might he have achieved in the nine years taken from him? At the farm, we try to maintain what he created.

Allen rides state GOP wave in sweeping to victory in 7th By MARKSCOLFORO and ROGER BIANCHINI Arundel Newspapers Staff Writers State Del. George Allen easily beat Democrat Kay Slaughter Tuesday night for the 7th District Congressional Seat being vacated by retiring incumbent D. French Slaughter Jr. Del. Allen, who currently represents Albemarle County in the House of Delegates, collected 63 percent of the vote to Ms. Slaughter’s 34 percent after 70 percent of precincts had reported late Tuesday night. John Torrice Jr., an independent candidate on the ballot, received about three percent of the vote. Complete results weren’t available at press time. Ms. Slaughter won the city of Charlottesville, where she sits on the city council, but not much else as Del. Allen cruised to victory. Del. Allen is widely viewed as a rising star in state GOP politics, and had been considered a favorite to win the Attorney General’s Office next year before Rep. Slaughter’s announcement this summer that he was retiring due to ill health. Del. Allen was a major organizer of Rep. Slaughter’s re-election campaign last year over Democratic challenger David Smith of Winchester. Del. Allen forced Rep. Slaughter’s son, D. French Slaughter III, out of the race early for the GOP nomination. Rep. Slaughter strongly endorsed Del. Allen, helping counter confusion among voters about the fact that Kay Slaughter and he are cousins. Del. Allen was able to raise about half-again the amount that Ms. Slaughter was over the course of the campaign, spending it most recently on attack ads. He will be up for re-election next fall, following the congressional redistricting, under which the 7th District is almost certain to be changed considerably. The 7th District election might be over, but the ads that Del. Allen used against Ms. Slaughter are harbingers of the GOP’s message to come. Television commercials that Del. Allen used depicted what he con tended was Ms. Slaughter’s anti-war stance late last year before the Persian Gulf War. The Alien-Slaughter race was a special election. The entire House faces a regular election a year from now, and if Democratic members were anti-war in 1990-91 the Allen victory may show that they’re going to hear about it in ’92. U.S. Rep. Guy Vander Jagt, RMich., who is chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee, which created the ad for the Allen campaign, said that he believes the Allen ad was right on the money. He asked during a recent appearence with Del. Allen whether or not Ms. Slaughter had attended a rally protesting the president’s deployment of troops in the Persian Gulf. “That’s the fundamental issue,” he is quoted as saying. Rep. Vander Jagt added that Americans would see similar ads run against Democrats in many congressional districts during next year’s regularly scheduled elections. Del. Allen also enlisted the help of Virginia Sen. John Warner in recent days to defend his controversial television ad placing his opponent Ms. Slaughter in proximity to an anti-war sign reading “Victory to Iraq,” a sentiment Ms. Slaughter vehemently denies having ever embraced. In an Associated Press report, Sen. Warner is quoted as saying, “There appears to be a technical sit uation where the footage of the actual rally in which she marched is not used. Otherwise it is a clear message to the voters of the 7th District.” Sen. Warner is a former Secretary of the Navy and makes his home in Middleburg. Though he defended Ms. Slaughter’s right to march in a peace rally, he said he was upset that the rally was held on Dec. 7, Pearl Harbor Day. Del. Allen said last week in Front Royal that the pulling of his television campaign ad linking his opponent to support of Iraq during the Persian Gulf War debate was simply a coincidence of timing. The ad, which the Slaughter camp says was lifted oh Nov. 1, was switched as a part of the regular cycle of advertising for his campaign, Del. Allen said. Sen. Warner, the current ranking Republican on the Armed Services Committee, was Senate floor manager of the resolution authorizing the use of American troops to oust Iraqi forces from Kuwait. During her appearence in Winchester to protest what she called the distortions of her position presented in the ad, Ms. Slaughter told reporters, “I don’t know how I would have voted if I had been in Congress.” Del. Allen said that Ms. Slaughter’s protests against the ad were nitpicking. Burke grave honored The Culpeper Minute Men Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution will hold a special ceremony at the recently discovered grave site of Revoluntionary War soldier William Burke.

The Audit THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1991 Editorial Unfinished business Election Day passed Tuesday, and with it went one of the most congenial local elections imaginable. There are, however, several loose ends that need to be tied up before we turn our attention away from the political arena. First of all, our biggest beef with those running for election has to be the tacky roadside signs that plague the countryside like a cancer. It is ironic that the very same men and women who solemnly tell us they will work to preserve the beauty of this area don’t think twice about planting a crop of ugly campaign posters on every square inch of open real estate in the county. It may say more about the character of those people than do their speeches to see how long it'takes them to remove said signs. Regardless of who puts them up, we will hold the individual candidates responsible for making sure they are taken down in a timely fashion. Another issue is the redistricting that took place this election season. In terms of priorities, the first principle ought to be uniting communities of interest, not sustaining political advantage. We no more belong in a state senate district with Shenandoah Valley counties or with Stafford County than does Tidewater. The Democrats should have begun by determining ideal boundaries based on which areas have issues and values in common with each other, and from there gone on to adjust according to voting patterns. Redistricting was poorly organized in another way, one that became an issue in Rappahannock on Election Day. There are local, state and national districts, but the state chose to use the county’s old supervisor districts in setting its state senate districts. When Gov. Wilder decided to push for black-majority districts, the old boundaries were used. That led to confusion at the polls Tuesday morning, and before the question could be straightened out, dozens of county voters probably cast ballots in the wrong district, which ought to bother anyone who thinks these things ought to be done in a precise fashion. The other “loose end” involves the general direction of the county government. Local elections serve many purposes, not the least of which is the process itself. By debating the various strengths and weaknesses of political candidates, a kind of public dialogue takes place that tends to provide legislators with an idea of what we want. The Board of Supervisors, all members running unopposed, won’t have the benefit of that dialogue for the next four years, and we think that’s too bad. There are plenty of other ways to make your voice heard, but with no debates, no opposition, we lose one of the best ways. By the time the next supervisors’ race comes around it will be eight years between that kind of debate. r V THE AMERICAN WAT THE DAY AFTER AN ELECTION 'MORNING AL 1 rM0RNINC JIM rcappananrux.* ixcwn aian riRnu/\_uiuy ivianan Rappahannock Heritage A healthy crowd cheers on the Panthers’ Homecoming victory in Sperryville last week. Letters to the Editor Frazier was off the mark To the Editor: Although the elections are now over and the voters have made their decisions, I hope you will consent to run yet another (and hopefully the last for a while) election inspired letter. I have seen and read with growing distaste the political ads in print and on the airwaves over the last few weeks, many of which have a common theme of negativism and outright viciousness. The letters to the editor however, have been fairly enlightening and educational simply because they state basic opinions of why certain readers prefer certain candidates and for the most part these writers tend to list the positive attributes of their respective favorite candidates. It was, then, with quite a bit of disappointment and more than a little disgust that I read the vitriolic attack on this paper, the Democratic candidates, the Democratic Party, and several local individuals who are highly and deservedly respected in our community. And who wrote this wonderful letter that characterizes so well all that is wrong with politics today? None other than the esteemed chairman of our local Republican Party. My, what a wonderful example to set for those of us who have some aspirations of becoming involved in the political process. Let me state that I have recently been actively involved with the local Democrats and have also in the past been supportive of Republican candidates, this being an extension of my personal belief that we as voters should support whomever we feel is the best man or woman for the job, regardless of their or our own political party preferences. And not being completely naive, I know that the Dems have been involved in their fair share of mudslinging in the past. However, it has become apparent that the Republicans have, in recent years, lowered this art to deeper and more insidious depths. The jabs by Mr. Frazier in his letter illustrate this all too well. This is a free country and free elections are one of our basic cornerstones. Has anyone ever thought that two opposing candidates might have their own particular plusses and minuses, as opposed to the Republican line of thought, which is that their candidates are ideal and everyone else (including the other side’s supporters) has only half a brain? 1 thought the News’ endorsements were fair and well-supported, although in this case they happened to coincide with my choices. However, I know that the News won’t always support my choices (check out the editorial cartoon a few weeks back) and when that happens I take my lumps and go on to the next issue. Unfortunately the Republicans have resorted to name calling and whining, a set of actions that will soon be changing the “Grand Old Party” to the “Grouchy Old Pouters” if they’re not careful. In closing, I think that the multiparty system has given this country the best leadership in the world. I hope that the animosity that has recently pervaded relations between the parties will soon subside so that the average voter can once again feel proud to participate in political discussions and actions without fear of becoming part of the seemingly sordid cycle of accusations and recriminations that some people seem to favor. A step in the right direction would be to remove the vengeful acrimonious people who seem to currently be in charge and replace them with some of the outstanding rank and file members who I know are out there. It is my hope that something short of looking death in the face (as was the case with Lee Atwater) will convince these dirty tricksters of the wrongness of their ways. If, after thousands of years, the Arabs and the Israelis can finally sit down to work out their problems, then maybe, after only a few years of deteriorating relationships, the Republicans and Democrats can at least become civil towards one another again. Oh well, at least I can dream. JAMES E. SWINDLER II Sperry ville Wood voices appreciation To the Editor: I am writing to express my thanks and gratitude to all the people who supported and worked for me and my campaign over the past four months. Being part of the democratic process has been an enlightening and invigorating process, and one that I am glad to participate in. Again, my thanks go out to all those that have given their support. JERRY WOOD Warrenton Homeschooler clarifies To the Editor: In reference to the article on homeschooling which appeared in the Oct. 24 issue of the Rappahannock News, I’m glad that your paper is interested in those in the county who are learning at home, but disappointed in the way in which we came across in the story. A couple of us feel concern about the way our children were presented in the article. The negative tone misrepresented our attitude toward Rappahannock’s public school sys tem. Finally, some important points were left out. As a homeschooling “mom/teacher" I’m used to explaining my lifestyle, so please allow me to once again describe the events that led to our decision to learn formally at home. Britton Wood is a normal, funloving eight-year-old who began kindergarten three years ago with an eager attitude. He jumped off the bus that first afternoon, shouting, “I love it!” It was only as the weeks went by in his class of 30 children, that he began to tire of the barrage of worksheets. He always liked his teacher, and even though her philosophy of teaching was different from mine, I completely sympathized with her as she faced the daunting task of working with so huge and varied a group. I volunteered one day a week to help a child in Britton’s class who was learning English as a second language—hoping that this would free his teacher to provide more interesting work for Britton. The situation did not improve and Britton was becoming more unhappy. Finally we decided to teach Britton at home after the Christmas break. We’ve been a homeschooling family ever since. We enjoy learning without worksheets or a rigid schedule defined by bells or groups of students coming and going to remedial labs. We love having our children with us for that big seven hour chunk of each day. Of course, it’s not always easy. We are sacrificing a second full-time income. (In some Rappahannock homeschooling families, Mom teaches and mothers all day, then goes to part-time work at night. These women deserve all of our respect.) Because of the stresses that are inherent in managing a home, planning lessons, and choosing curricula, a group has formed in the county. Home Educators’ Association of Rappahannock, or H.E.A.R., provides support, friendships, and ideas for field trips each month. It is through this group that Spanish lessons and music seminars have been established this year. We do not feel that we have cut ties with RCES. We participate in fund-raising efforts, special events, the book fair, and last spring, the wonderful science fair. For my chil dren testing week is a special time for us to visit the schools, look at the art work in the halls, and have lunch in the cafeteria. We are enriched in the process and we hope that others will be enriched by finding out what we do at home. Our community is very small and very precious to me. A former teacher myself, I have many friends still teaching in the public schools, as well as at Spring Mountain School, Wakefield Country Day-Huntly, and Wakefield-Marshall. Each of us has the same basic goal: to raise children who are happy, who love learning, and who will be able to function well in their adult lives. One of the first things to happen in the newly freed Eastern Bloc nations has been the establishment of a variety of schools—public, Jewish, Christian, and many Waldorf schools are taking root. It is a basic freedom, this choice to teach our children in different ways. Thus, here in Rappahannock County, our diversity is our wealth. In a time when education is under attack from within and without, we must build bridges, not burn them. DIANE WOOD Washington, Va. No headline is needed To the Editor: I have received so many compliments about the “Cat’s Tale” I feel compelled to file a status report. The cats have all been adopted. The yellow one was the last to go. The couple who picked it up was undecided, whether to name it “Sticky or Walter. ” Col. Maurice Biddle, a forever Rappahannock neighbor, wrote congratulating me on a fine piece of writing and suggested that from time to time I submit a column to the Rappahannock News with “Trenchant observations about this-n-that.” - At one time Col. Biddle and I played golf regularly. His generous interpretation of winter rules and use of meaningful Mulligans left me’ with warm affection and great respect for his opinion. I will then now make some trenchant remarks and questions about “Letters to the Editor.” These remarks are aimed at the Rappahannock News editors, past and present, and not to editors in general. 1. Why do the editors never reply to these letters addressed to them? Very often the letters beg for a reply and since an editor is supposed to possess a prolific pen he (she) is passing up a golden opportunity. For instance, a letter states “I like J.W. for Sheriff.’’ The editor could say at the end of the letter “Well, their editor does not agree.” This does not take even much creative thinking or writing. 2. Why do they (I shall refer editors as they hereafter) edit letters to the editor? The first line in my letter about cats was “What this county needs is a cat disposall. They took one “1” out of disposall and changed the meaning completely. I believe the creation of the writer should be left in the original and not messed with as long as it doesn’t get the newspaper sued. 3. Why do they put titles on letters. If they feel creative there are plenty of other columns they can mess with. If a letter writer wants a title on his work he will put one on it. 4. Last but not least, why do they include letters from some other county, state or outer space in our newspaper? So often a letter from Jane Doe of Battlecreek is expounding the virtues of some politician. They are either naive or lazy to accept this obviously political propaganda that, if it should be printed at all it, should be under classified advertising. I would go on but there is a deadline. If anyone doesn’t know what trenchant means look it up. The above remarks are quite trenchant. WALTER DAY Flint Hill

Miller, RHarrisonburg, swept the 26th District race Tuesday by a two-to-one margin over Democrat challenger Margaret Haynes, taking 64 percent of the vote. Also, longterm incumbent Sen. Thomas Michie was upset by Republican challenger Ed Robb in the 25th Senate district. Mr. Robb campaigned against Sen. Michie’s voting record. “I’d like to think that people looked at the qualifications of the candidates and made the right choice,” said Sen. Miller, 61, after the election. “In 1983 and 1987, I won by 58 percent of the vote, and I was hoping I would do as well this time,” said Sen. Miller, who has served in the Virginia State Senate since 1983 and in the House of Delegates from 1979 to 1983. Sen. Miller took 64 percent of the vote of a district that includes almost all of Rappahannock, while Ms. Haynes took 34 percent. In Rappahannock, unofficial results showed Sen. Miller losing the county, collecting only 847 votes to Ms. Haynes’ 896. In Fauquier County, Sen. Miller had 4,113 votes to Ms. Haynes’ 2,723 votes. In Culpeper County, Sen. Miller accumulated 3,821 votes to Ms. Haynes’ 1,846. Mr. Robb, a retired FBI agent, garnered 272 votes in Rappahannock to Sen. Michie’s 127. The GOP picked up eight senate seats statewide, narrowing the Democrat’s majority from 30-10 to 22-18. “I am even more excited by the [results] statewide, on the Republican side. It is now going to be a new ball game, a force to reckonned with. . .” Sen. Miller offered. “I think there has been lot of dissatisfaction in the state with the Wilder administration.” Ms. Haynes, also of Harrison burg and a district representative for U.S. Rep. James Olin, D-5th, made education the primary plank on her campaign platform. During the campaign, she has also called for greater use of public-private partnerships in education, higher salaries to attract the most qualified teachers, and lower teacher-student ratios to improve the individual instruction received by each child. She was unable to be reached for comment after the election. Miller, the senate’s only certified public accountant, campaigned on his conservative record as well as his experience in Richmond. “I am looking forward to between now and January. We need to reorganize the Senate. . . .1 am looking forward to the Senate following the rules. The Democrats ignored the Senate rules. (Mark Scolforo and Hilary Scheer contributed to this report.)

i iiui >uajf, McCarthy Continued from page A-1 would be able to do something about inflation and 20 percent interest rates. “Inflation is worse than debt," he said. “But 1 didn't think Reagan would take us into debt as much as he did.” As a candidate for the 1992 election. Mr. McCarthy said part of his program would be to make those who benefitted from the debt and the Reagan tax cuts “pay it back.” Mr. McCarthy has filed as a candidate with the Federal Elections ' V. 1IIUVI / , 17 7 Committee. He announced his candidacy at the F.T. Valley Grocery, at the Rappahannock Democratic Party fundraiser, in Washington at a children’s show, and in New Hampshire, which he visited earlier this month. He said he would propose, as he did in 1976, import taxes on the goods of “any country we are under contract to defend," such as Germany, Japan, Taiwan and Korea. “We’ve spent $200 to $300 billion for their defense and they’ve spent nothing," he said. “It’s like lending them defense." He is also advocating a “capital accumulation tax.” He explained that anyone who has had assets of $10 to $15 million or more for 10 years or more would have to pay taxes of 20 percent on those assets. “It would be like a capital gains tax on great accumulations of wealth in this country,” he said. - He said such a tax would bring in .about $2 trillion the first year to reduce the national debt and lesser amounts in later years. “I was working on this when I left the Senate,” he said. “Things were not nearly as bad then." He added, “If we taxed the Vanderbilts and Morgans to the point where they had to go back to work instead of buying horses and paintings, the Japanese wouldn’t know what hit them, with all those acquisitive genes turned loose.” Another theme of Mr. McCar Sen. Eugene McCarthy thy’s program is covered in a book he expects to publish early next year. The point of the book, he said, is that the United States has become “a colony to the world. “We have lost control of our foreign and military policy,” Mr..McCarthy said. “We had a chance with Gorbachev to get back into history, but George (Bush) has taken us out again. We have lost control of our economy. We export raw materials and import manufactured goods. We have lost control of our borders to drugs and immigrants, and we have lost control of our culture. * “These deficiencies are the marks of classical colonialism,” he continued. “We have even allowed Castro to send us his criminals the way the British did in Georgia and Australia during colonial times.” As an example of lack of control over the military, Mr. McCarthy pointed out that major contractors for the B-l bomber are located in 30 states. “That means that there are 60 senators under economic pressure to support it,” he said. “That is by design.” He said that the United States was justified in going into Saudi Arabia to protect Saudi oil fields. He is concerned, however, that Desert Storm showed the U nited States can deploy 500,000 men “before there is any effective way to pass judgment on whether the deployment is proper. We need to be sure that the fact we can do something doesn’t become justification for doing it,” he said. Mr. McCarthy favors adding health insurance for catastrophic illnesses and long term health care tc Medicare and Medicaid. He said on the environment and energy “most of the things that need to be done have been identified.” Mr. McCarthy believes President Bush can be beaten in 1992. “The Middle East build-up is a weak platform, and it gets worse every day,” he said. “But the real area where he is vulnerable is his abuse of the Constitution, his use of real or latent prejudices in the country, and his almost complete surrender to the multinationals. Can he pull off increasing antagonism toward the poor, blacks and the unemployed?” Mr. McCarthy believes he is in a good position to challenge the president. He said governors don’t make good candidates because they lack foreign policy experience and “anyone who has been in Congress these past 10 years has a lot to answer for.” He said he expected to spend the campaign developing these ideas and conceded, “Of course, we couldn’t solve all these problems in our first term.” At the AHA Virginia affiliate awards luncheon at the Richmond Marriott last Saturday, from left: News editor Mark Scolforo, Marie Davis, Ethel Bailey, Lillian Aylor, AHA Charlottesville coordinator Jane Lienesch and Bob Scott. Heart awards granted Five Rappahannock residents travelled to Richmond Saturday to pick up statewide awards from the American Heart Association’s Virginia Affiliate. “A Day for Heroes” was the theme for the annual awards luncheon at the Richmond Marriott, and the guest speaker was the AHA’s national president, Dr. Virgil Brown. Marie Davis accepted awards on behalf of the Rappahannock Unit. The awards were for program achievement and for meeting the Over the Top Challenge. Mark Seolforo, editor of the Rappahannock News, and Robert Scott, publicity director for the Rappahannock Unit of the AHA, received the 1990-91 Outstanding Media-Weekly Newspaper award for their efforts on behalf of community education. Lillian Aylor attended the luncheon as a delegate, and Rappahannock Unit volunteer Ethel Bailey attended as well. Scouts are collecting canned food donations For their part in one of the nation’s largest volunteer collection of food, more than 1,500 members of the Shenandoah Area Council, Boy Scouts of America will be distribution food collection bags this weekend. The canned food collected will be used to help feed the hungry in Rappahannock and surrounding counties. This year’s Scouting for Food drive kicks off Saturday, Nov. 9. Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts and Explorers will go door-to-door, leaving food collection bags. They will return the following Saturday to pick up the filled bags, which Scouts are asking residents to place outside their doors by 9 a.m. Food collection will then be donated to food banks for local distribution. According to Charles Huntsberry of Schenks Foods the local Scouting for Food Chairperson, anyone who does not receive a bag may still contribute by calling (Boy Scouts of America—703-662-2551 or Lord Fairfax Area Food Bank—703665-0770) or by dropping off food donations at Lord Fairfax Area Food Bank, 1011 Fort Collier Rd., Winchester or Boy Scouts of America, 2300 Roosevelt Blvd., Winchester. “The greatest need is the nutritional canned food items, such as baby formula, soup, chili, fish, meats and vegetables,” said Mr. Huntsberry. Last year, Shenandoah Area Council Scouts collected more than 35,000 cans of food for hungry families in the local nine county area. Nationally, the drive is expected to collect about 89 million cans during this year’s drive. For more information on tW Scouting for Food Good Turn, call the Shenandoah Area Council at 703: 662-2551. Delegate Continued from page A-1 particular strength in southern and central Fauquier. Mr. Darby, a retired businessman who lives in Woodville, won Rappahannock by a 1,128-1,053 margin, and swept Warren County, with about 500 more votes than Mr. Wood. “I made up a lot of ground, clearly I didn’t make up enough,” said Mr. Darby late Tuesday night. “My thanks to my supporters— there were a lot of people involved.” Albert Pollard, Mr. Wood’s campaign manager, said that Mr. Wood’s support came from a “combination of friends and neighbors and issues votes.” Mr. Wood said that being a Democrat in a traditionally Republican area was not a problem in his race. “We talked about the issues. People respect you for knowing your position,” he said. Many of Mr. Wood’s stances were close to Mr. Darby’s conservative philosophy, and Mr. Wood says he felt all along he could carry the race. But he added Tuesday night that it was closer than he thought it would be. “I thought the margin would be more, but not much more,” said Mr. Wood. A major contributor to Mr. Wood’s success was his early start, Darby campaign manager Jeff Parker said Tuesday. Mr. Wood started campaigning about three months ahead of Mr. Darby and his campaign signs and literature were long a fixture by county roads and in business windows before those of Mr. Darby. He also raised considerably more money than did Mr. Darby. Mr. Darby’s strength in Warren County was generally attributed to the presence of an established Republican organization there that has supported Del. Raymond R. “Andy” Guest in past campaigns for the 31st District seat. He also had strong showings in conservative northern Fauquier and in the areas east of Warrenton. Mr. Wood won all 14 Fauquier precincts, but had the greatest margins in southern Fauquier and in the town of Warrenton. • Large Capacity • Genfle Heat System • 3 Automatic Drying Cycles • Automatic DRY-MISER* Control' • End-of-Cyde & Lint Signals • DURAWHIIE™ Interior • Mini Hamper Door • Interior Light WEEKENtf SPECIAL -ims* * RAPPAHANNOCK FARMERS CO-OP Sperryville, Va 703-987-8555 RAPPAHANNOCK Business & Service ;:t IMrcctory- ^£ • 703/675-3338 Only $3.95 per week for a 1 inch space! _ ... _ ' __• ARCHITECTURE WILLIAM B.

Store getting 'down to earth' Sperryville shop opened its doors in July By LISA G. CURRIE Rappahannock News Staff Writer Everyone on the planet is getting “down to earth” about ecology, saving endangered species and recycling. Now, there’s a store in Sperry - ville that offers a little education, a little help and a little in return for those concerned. Down To Earth, replacing Touch The Earth, has new owners, new stock and new ideas. “We are trying to show a friendly side of change,” said co-owner Connie Crossgrove of Madison. The tall-dark haired woman has joined forces with ex-Rappahannock citizens Bruce Wetteroth-past proprietor of the Earth Shop in Washington—with this idea. The shop, once a thrift store, located next to the old hotel on Main Street, is one room lined, stacked, hung, arranged and packed with ecological and conservationally inspired items. There is natural bath soap or cologne. There are toilet paper and paper towels made from recycled paper, as well as cards, note paper and other items. There is literature from various groups on endangered species, recycling, ecology. There are books on herbs, fossils or rocks-for.the beginner or the professional. There are T-shirts and buttons and bead necklaces and cloth bracelets. There are baskets or pottery from around the globe. There is natural food, natural tea, music and rocks. There are blankets, rugs and posters. “They are things that I’ve seen through life," said Mrs. Crossgrove. She said she has always been a “tag collector. I would save them. I don’t know why but they sure have come in handy.” Via these tags and other natural cooperatives, her stock has flourished. Owning a store has been a dream of Mrs. Crossgroves’ for years. Down to Earth was not her idea. “My friends are shocked,” she said, laughing. They expected a gourmet deli. “I love to cook,” she said, adding she always had dreams of owning a deli or restaurant. “I don’t know what happened,” she laughed. “This wasn’t really planned,” she said of the store. It’s been coming for some time. Over 10 years ago, Mrs. Crossgrove and her husband moved to the area from Northern Virginia and settled in Madison County. “I’ve always been conservation minded,” she said, explaining her first and present Down to Earth Shop in Madison started as dried flower arrangement shop. Visiting Washington one day, she encountered Mr. Wetteroth. . At the time, Mr. Wetteroth was operating the Earth Shop. Mrs. Crossgrove said she “liked what I saw and thought the idea was wonderful.” “We were like minded,” she said. With little knowledge of the other, the two became partners. “This isn’t work. This is fun,” Mr. Wetteroth said. Customers visiting the store from Northern Virginia keep his attention. While Mrs. Crossgrove owns the shop in Madison, the two have joined forces with the shop in Sperryville. The first time they spent together was the trip to Potomac Mills to get shelves for the Sperryville shop, which opened in late September. “He knew the place was available and he made it all happen,” she said. Even on such short notice, the two “knew we had the right thing,” said Mrs. Crossgrove. The tiny store is a combination of their efforts. She has used her connections with trade and mercantile companies and he has provided natural rocks, minerals, fossils and music information. During business hours-Friday through Sunday 10:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. and often on Mondays--the store is busy and crow’ded with lookers and buyers. “It’s all about surival,” said Mrs. Crossgrove. Photo b\ Ross Chappie Trapezoid, from left: Martha Sandefer, Paul Reisler, Bob Read, Cheryl Hurwitz. Trapezoid plays RCES benefit The internationally acclaimed music group Trapezoid will be appearing in concert at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 16 at Rappahannock High School. Trapezoid is based in rural Rappahannock County, but their travels over the past 17 years have taken them as far away as Japan and to 46 states in the U.S. According to Trapezoid founder Paul Reisler, “We always try to make our concerts at home into special events. We’ll have several surprise guests perform a few songs with us for this concert and we'll have the world premiere of several of my new songs. We have such a great time playing at home that we love to try out some new things and bring back some old friends to Dlavwithus.” The concert will also celebrate the release of “Wisdom of the Wood,” a new collection from Narada/MCA records that features Trapezoid performing one of Mr. Reisler’s original compositions, “Big Salmon." This collection honors the art of the musical instrument maker. Mr. Reisler, who built all kinds of string instruments for almost 25 years, wrote part of the introduction for the booklet that accompanies the collection and served as a consultant on the whole project. The concert is sponsored by Ki Theatre and Rappahannock Elementary School. Proceeds will benefit the school’s field trip fund. Tickets for the concert are available at various locations throughout the area. Advance tickets are suggested as most of the Trapezoid concerts in the area over the years have sold out. There will be a limited number of tickets available at the door the night of the performance. Call 675-3728 for more information. Comedy comes to Theatre Anyone who enjoyed the highly successful “Pirates of Penzance" at The Theatre at Washington, Va. last summer, as well as anyone who relishes an entertaining evening of theater, will be interested to know that Interact Theatre Company that performed “Pirates” is returning with a different show. For its second production locally. Interact will bring “Joyce” to The Theatre at Washington, Va. at 8 p.m. on Nov. 16. “Joyce” is a delightful entertainment of words and music, featuring witty songs, amusing monologues, anecdotes and reminiscences of the legendary beloved British comedienne, Joyce Grenfell. Grenfell is probably best remembered by American audiences as the lovelorn police sergeant in the wonderful movie comedies about St. Trinian’s School for Girls. But she was also a singer and composer and a writer of witty, lighthearted lyrics and monologues. She was a popular performer on stage and television. The insights revealed in her lyrics were remarkablykeen and clever, but always totally without malice. Washington, D.C. actress Catherine Flye, who directed Interact’s performance of the “Pirates of Penzance” will play Joyce. Flye graduated from London’s Guildhall School of Music and Drama and worked in repertory theater in England. She has appeared in films and has directed and performed in many stage productions. The Washington, D.C. area theaters in which she has acted principal roles include the Kennedy Center’s Terrace Theater, the Shakespeare Theater at the Folger, Olney, Ford’s and Round House. Also featured in the performance of “Joyce” will be Brian O’Connor as the narrator and Alex Hassan as the musical director and accompanist. Tessa Dunning is the director. Tickets to the Nov. 16 performance are $10 for general admission, $8 for seniors and $5 for children. Advance reservations are recommended. Checks should be made payable to The Theatre at Washington and mailed to: The Theatre, P.O. Box 322, Washington, Va. 22747. Tickets may also be purchased at the box office on the day of the performance. The recently refurbished theater is located at the comer of Gay and Jett Streets in the town of Washington, Va.

Low-fat foods, pork are 'in' these days By HELEN W. SMITH Rappahannock Ncw« Contributing Writer Lean is in, fat is out. Loweredfat, the nutritional buzz word of the 1990s, is one of the many nutritional benefits fresh pork can offer. With fresh pork’s new and improved nutrition profile, you’ll be happy to discover that it’s leaner than ever before, and lower in calories and cholesterol. Pork is even referred to in recent advertisements as the “other” white meat. This is because of so much emphasis on the light meat from poultry producers. e Nutrional bargain Pork is indeed a nutritional bargain. Fresh pork is an outstanding source of many vitamins and minerals essential to the human diet. Pork provides high quality protein and is a primary source of other essential nutrients like vitamin Bl. It is also an excellent source of vitamin B2, B6, B12, iron, and zinc. With pork being as lean as it is today, one could easily enjoy it frequently. To give you an idea of how the leaner pork profile stacks up against what we used to think of as “pork,” note the following facts: In 1983, a three-ounce serving of roast pork would yield 11.7 grams of fat compared to today’s 6.4 grams, which is a 45 percent reduction. Presently, the same serving of pork would yield 160 calories, when in 1983 it had 280 calories, or 23 percent more fat. This information and other findings have proven that pork is lower in cholesterol, lower in fat, and lower in calories. This is because of the way pork is fed and grown by the producer. Another interesting fact that I discovered when doing my homework is that pork is not marbled as some red meats and the visible fat can be trimmed. This greatly reduces the amount of calories, cholesterol, and saturated fat. Remember, that the visible fat on a piece of meat is usually the main source of saturated fat. Think pink Today’s leaner pork cooks quickly! Overcooking will rob pork of tenderness, juiciness and flavor. The age-old fear of trichinosis is simply unfounded today. This type of infection in U.S. hogs is a clinical rarity. To assure wholesomeness and good flavor and texture, cook pork to medium - an internal temperature of 160 degrees F. A slightly pink color in fresh roasted or grilled pork provides tender, juicy eating and is safe. Pork scallopini (David Harvey) 1/2 stick (4 T.) margarine, divided 1 medium onion, thinly sliced 1/2-1 cup sliced mushrooms 4 pork cutlets (boneless) --1 lb. 1/2 tsp.
