Rappahannock News Staff Phoio/Mark Scolforo Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Social Services workers put together Christmas food baskets for needy. County answers the call Basket donations pour in at last minute By LISA G. CURRIE Rappahannock New* Staff WriUr Rappahannock County residents have a great deal to be thankful for this Christmas season: They have the generous spirits and kind hearts of their neighbors. Several weeks ago, the Rappahannock County Department of Social Services extended a plea to the community for food supplies and monetary donations to support the annual Christmas baskets for the needy. In mid-December of each year, the office provides food baskets to those the office feels demonstrate a need for such supplies. Food items for the baskets are purchased through donated funds and filled with donated goods. This year, funds were at a minimal. Food boxes were unspoken for and the picture for many needy families was bleak. But the community answered the call and i deluged the office with everything from tea bags and toothpaste to spaghetti sauce and packaged oatmeal. * Donations poured into the office from several civic groups, businesses and churches, bringing the total donation to one of the highest ever received. “In a very short period of time” Rappahannock County citizens helped to provide “the largest number of baskets this office has ever provided,” said Social Services office manager (and organizer of the drive) Marie Davis. Monetary donations “provided around |3,000,” she said, adding the money was spent at Cooper's IGA in Front Royal, where everything from turkey and stuffing to vegetables and cake mixes were purchased. “This has been one of the best years ever,” she said. The Trinity Episcopal Church in Washington was the first large donor, followed by the Rappahannock Lions Club and several other civic groups. Sm DONATIONS, p. A-3 When his friends are asked * about J. Maurice Ollaimon, the .» Rappahannock County Citizen of f the Year for 1991, the most common reaction is, “He has a big heart.” Of course, Mr. O’Bannon, the ’ owner of businesses That Sperryville Emporium and Parkway Gift 'J Shop, is a big man. He'd have to have a big heart just to pump ; blood, but that’s not what these people have in mind. JJ The Rev. L. Starke Jones, J pastor of the Woodville Baptist | Church, where the O’Bannona ; have been members for genera- ; tions, said, “I hear generally see- | ond hand. I doubt even his family knows how much he does for 6th- f ere.* *: Mr. O’Bannon is a trustee of the church, partly responsible for i business that relates to church ’ property. He is also chairman of } the deacons. “They take care of whatever comes up,” Rev. Jones said. “They will visit somebody j with a special need.” The Rev. Jones said he has been at Wood* | ville Baptist for 3 Vi years, but he knew Mr. O’Bannon before he came. “I bought apples from him at his house in Woodville,” he « said. “He’s very deserving, a very SmO’BAMNON, p. AHI J The year that was 1991 's top news stories reviewed • • By MARKSCOLFORO Rappahannock Ncwi Staff Writer The year started with a war in the Persian Gulf, and ended with the Bush Administration declaring a war on the recession. But for the 6,600 residents of Rappahannock County, 1991 will be remembered for a variety of less auspicious events that occurred here. A number of Rappahannock’s sons saw combat in the Persian Gulf during the shortlived war, and by December it hardly seemed less than a year since the battle was fought. In the first months of the year Superintendent David Gangel, County Administrator John McCarthy and various department heads struggled to cut their budgets to the bare bones, and to a large extent were successful. The 77 cent tax rate this year was no larger than last year’s, despite a dramatic drop in the amount of money the state is sending to counties. March also saw the departure of five-year Rappahannock News editor Lou Hatter, who left to become managing editor of the Fauquier Times-Democrat in neighboring Fauquier County. Mark Scolforo, formerly assistant editor of the Times-Democrat and a native of Fauquier, was named to replace Mr. Hatter. Also in March, the seventh grade class trip to Richmond was surprised by an unexpected audience with Gov. L. Douglas Wilder at the State Capital. And March was the beginning of Kenny Allison’s trial in U.S. District Court for cocaine trafficking. Mr. Allison, whose home in Harris Hollow was raided by federal authorities, was sentenced to more than 30 years without parole. A tragedy made headlines in Aprils a mated pair of bald eagles that had been seen all winter in the F.T. Valley were discovered killed See 1991 REVIEW, p. A-2 Planners question middle school details By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer School Superintendent David Gangel brought the expansion committee and the School Board’s recommendation that the county build a new middle school in time for the 1995-96 school year to the Planning Commission and met with limited success. Dr. Gangel told the planners the elementary school will need an additional section of second grade next year, but will not need four sections of seventh grade. If enrollment supports those estimates, he said, he would not need an additional regular classroom next year. However, the following year, 1993-94 an- additional section of third gratis will be needed, and in 1994-95 another section of fourth grade will be needed. He said he had two rooms that could be converted to regular classroom use, one by “putting art on a cart." After that he said he would need to have classrooms in the cafeteria or on the stage unless a middle school is available. Hampton District represents tive John Clark Jr. asked if it would be possible to convert two classrooms to three by putting in \ new partitions. Dr. Gangel invited the planners to visit the school and see the students in their chain. “We’re wall to wall already,” he said. Stonewall-Hawthom District representative Sharon Pierce recommended that the planners take Dr. Gangel up on his offer and visit the elementary school. Wakefield District representative Werner Krebeer asked if the different behavior of middleschool aged children was a consideration, and Dr. Gangel said that was one reason for recommending a middle school. Dr. Gangel also went over the reasons for studying the possibility of providing vocational education at the high school instead of at Piedmont Technical School. With tuition payments, federal and state flow-through funds going to Piedmont that would come to the county if vocationaleducation were available locally, Sm PLANNERS, p. A-5

1991 Review Continued from page A-1 near Sperryville. They had been poisoned. Despite a reward that quickly grew to $10,000, the case has never been solved. Later in April the General Assembly performed its State Senate redistricting, splitting Rappahannock between the 25th and 26th districts. In the following months the county was also put into the .'list House of Delegates District, the 10th Congressional District and had its magisterial districts redrawn. John Conrv was named CEO of the Rappahannock National Bank in May. an in another May milestone David Smith was appointed principal of Rappahannock Elementary. Larry Carter, formerly at Madison County High, replaced Mr. Smith as Rappahannock High principal and athletic director. James P. “Dickie” Walters climbed the 20-foot fence around the exercise area, negotiated the concertina wire and escaped from the Rappahannock .Jail on May 12. Seven months later the convicted felon was still at large. In spring sports news, Merrill Strange and Matt Eidson won the Eva Smith Memorial awards for being the first county residents to finish in the annual Fodderstack 10-K race. Mr. Eidson was also named Rappahannock High athlete of the year. The Lady Panthers softball team set a new school record for victories during the spring season, going 12-5 to better the previous mark of 7-9. It was also a year for building projects, most notably the Rappahannock Public Library on U.S. 211522 east of Washington. That building opened during the summer, then was formally dedicated in September. Circulation, new library cards issued and donations were all at record levels this year. 703/675-3338 Only $3.95 per week for a 1 inch space! ARCHITECTURE WILLIAM B.

The plans by Adelphia Cable to service parts of Rappahannock were in the news on and off all year—in December the town and county governments finally signed contracts. Some areas around Chester Gap already have cable service; for others it will be 1993 before the lines are installed and ready to go. During July a citizens’ committee studying The Inn at Little Washington’s expansion plans issued its longawaited report. The major finding was that the project should be scaled down from what was put before the town two years ago. Inn owners Patrick O’Connell and Reinhardt Lynch said they will be using the study to formulate new7 plans. In July the county’s congressman, U.S. Rep. D. French Slaughter Jr., announced he was retiring due to ill health. His son, French III, lost the Republican nomination to Va. Del. George Allen of Earlysville. Del. Allen also beat Rep. Slaughter’s first cousin, Kay Slaughter, in the General Election, and was subsequently gerrymandered out of representing Rappahannock County after this year. The local elections in November were low-key; only Sheriff John H. Woodward faced any opposition, and he beat opponent Roger Cordani by a 2-to-l margin. The four'other constitutional officers and all five incumbent supervisors ran unopposed. State Sen. Kevin Miller, R, easily beat Democratic challenger Margaret Haynes; but the other incumbent state senator, Thomas Michie, was upset by retired FBI agent Ed Robb. Warrenton businessman Jerry Wood was elected to the 31st District seat over Woodville reap, dent Bob Darby. ^ All summer an ongoing dispute over Wakefield School boiled over, with multiple lawsuits, an eviction, a libel suit, and the eventual departure of 150 students, most of the faculty and equipment for a new site in Marshall. The school’s co-founder, Pamela Lynn, founded a new institution on the Huntly grounds, WakeSee 1991 REVIEW, p.A-3 Basketball team plays in tourney By MARK SCOLFORO Rappahannock Newa SUIT Writer The Rappahannock High varsity basketball team enters the Northern Virginia Daily Christmas tournament this week hoping to use the tournament to get on track for a tough slate of Bull Run District games in January. The eight-team tournament begins for Rappahannock at 9 p.m. Dec. 26 against AA Courtland. All teams are assured of three games, and the Panthers will also play on Dec. 28 and Dec. 30, but game times depend on whether they win or lose their earlier games. The Northern Virginia Daily wall be running complete listings. At the conclusion of each tournament game there’s an added bonus: free-throw and three-point shooting contests between two players chosen by each coach. Last year Rappahannock players Daniel Deal and Jason Butler placed second among the eight teams in three-pointers and free throws, respectively. Other teams in the tournament are: Stuart’s Draft, Brentsville, Warren County (the defending tournament champs), Eastern Mennonite, Shenandoah Valley Academy and Centreville. “We’ll use the three games of the Christmas tournament to help identify wher£ we are and what we’re doing,” skid Panthers Coach Gary Leake. To get to Warren County High take a left at Jack Evans Chevrolet on U.S. 340 in Front Royal. Rappahannock’s record is 0-5 after losing twice this week, 59-52 at home against Clarke and 89-61 at home against Central. Against Clarke junior forward Michael Williams was the only player in double figures, with 26 points. The scoring was a good deal more spread out against Central: Williams had 16, Kevin Jolliffe 13, Damian Muriel 10 and Jason Henry 9. The young Panthers continue to struggle with turnovers, low' shooting percentages from the floor and defensive lapses, said the coach. The good news is that Rappahannock has out-rebounded every team it has played, and the team’s freethrow percentage has been high. Coach Leake said that inexperience has hurt the Panthers—only two players have varsity experience—so the tournament will provide much needed court time. He also expressed disappointment at the level of community support. The Friday night home game against Central saw the lowest crowd at For information leading to the arrest of a person or persons responsible for a threatening letter written to a Rappahannock County resident and postmarked August 24,1991.

He added that the team is “hearing a lot of negative things from people. . . .We need the school and the community to rally around this team.” “We’re capable of putting the ball in the basket; it just comes down to confidence,” said Coach Leake. Jayvees beat Luray at home The JV basketball team lost to George Mason, 50-38, last week before bouncing back to beat Luray, 54-45. Against George Mason, said Coach Tim Corder, “They didn’t look that great—we just looked terrible.” Jason Settle had 11 points and Ray Atkins had six. Rappahannock lost much of its rebounding strength when Hunter Foster broke his thumb in the first half. He was lost for three weeks. In winning the Luray home opener, Shawn Jordan had 22, Shane Lambert scored 12 with 7 rebounds, Ray Atkins had six and Paul Brown scored six with six rebounds. The Panthers led 22-17 at the half and never let up.

The Lady Panthers won the first game, 15-10, lost the second, 7-15, then won the third and deciding game, 153. Coach Paul Paratore said the team had to shrug off a lapse in concentration early on. “In volleyball, if ] you’re not in the game with your J head, I don’t care what your skill ? level, you’re going to get beat,” he i said. He said the team showed more competitive fire in the third game than they’ve had all season. “It was the first time they’ve been upset out there,” said the coach. The squad has off until Jan. 6, but during practices over Christmas break Coach Paratore said he will be making some adjustments. “I’m really optimistic for the rest of the season,” he said. The jayvee team lost to Clarke’s jayvee, 3-15,15-1, 5-15. Coach Paratore said despite the loss that game constituted a “big step forward” for the Lady Panthers. “I. think I’ve got some good kids there,” he said.

Tickets for the Yale Russian Chorus are $8, $5 for students and seniors. Additional costs drive Library deficit By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer The Library Board learned that the library is facing a $30,000 operating deficit this fiscal year. Treasurer Helen Platt said she had about $4,700 left in the operating budget and December bills would absorb that. She said the library would receive $3,200 in January as a quarterly payment from the state <jvith one more such payment due. She added that the state was talking about cutting back. Mrs. Platt said expenses had been running about $6,000 per month. Some of these expenses were for one-time purchases such as chairs for the meeting room and a computer, but most of the extra expenses have been for utilities, cleaning service and salaries. “So, how can we cut back?” Chairman William Young asked. Member Grace Sims suggested that the library is open 47 hours per week while only 40 hours are required by the state. The board decided to cut Wednesday hours. The library has been open from 9 a.m. until 9 p.m. on Wednesdays. It will be closed Christmas Day and New Year’s Day. Starting in January, groups using the meeting room to make contributions for the use of the space. Mrs. Platt will check with James P. Jamieson about what help might come from the Friends of the Rappahannock Library. “It’s going to come to punting all the part-time hours,” John McCarthy said. “The answer is obvious but unpleasant, let all the staff go but Nikki.” Mrs. Platt replied, “But then we’d lose Nikki.” The board agreed to try cost savings without reducing staff and to have Dr. Young approach the Board of Supervisors about an additional appropriation. The board also learned that more patrons are using the library and more volunteer hours are being donated. They decided that new books would no longer be checked out for three weeks. New books will be checked out for one week and cannot be renewed unless there is no reserve on them. Wednesday hours will be 10 a. m. until 8 p.m. The board also agreed to charge postage for interlibrary loans. They also decided to cut back on heat and lighting. Librarian Nikki Lynch suggested they could hold an additional book sale. The board also agreed to try harder to get 1991 Review Continued from page A-2 field Country Day School, with about 70 students. By the end of the year a major issue—who owes thousands of dollars in loans—was still before Rappahannock Circuit Court Judge Thomas Home. The libel suit against Mrs, Lynn, filed by Warrenton attorney Rob Miller, is also pending. The only good news out of the whole controversy was that both schools appear to be off to a good start—Wakefield CDS has even been given donations totalling in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, and the Marshall school reports high morale and expects enrollment to climb next year. The drought that hit much of the surrounding area this summer was not as severe in Rappahannock, so 29 county farmers participated in a donation of hay to Clarke County farmers. The donation was organized by the Rappahannock Farmers Association and the Clarke Extension Office. In October county property owners were up in arms over their assessments, which increased on average about 80 percent. The Board of Assessors heard a record number of appeals, but an unofficial study by the Rappahannock News showed that actual sales in October were only about three percent below assessed values. The county also has a presidential candidate. Former U.S. Sen. Eugene McCarthy announced this fall that he was running for president on a campaign that was designed to attack President Bush. Tale Russian Chorus performs The Theatre at Washington, Va. will begin 1992 with a New Year’s Day concert that celebrates the musical cultures of the Russian republic and its neighbors. The concert will be presented at 4 p.m. by the Yale Russian Chorus, an a capella men’s choir from Yale University. The songs in their repertoire span more than 1,000 years and include folk songs, liturgical hymns, opera choruses, and soliders’ songs, in Rus sian, Ukrainian, Georgian, Latvian, Macedonian, and Armenian. The Yale Russian Chorus was founded in 1953. In the 38 years of its existence, the chorus has made a dozen European tours, including concerts in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kiev, Tbilisi, Paris, London, Oxford and Berlin.

The chorus has broadcast nationally on “A Prairie Home Companion” and “Morning Pro Musica.” The chorus remained an all-male group even after Yale became coeducational in 1969 because most of its songs in its repertoire were written specifically for male voices. The emotional depth of Russian songs and the vocal range from profound bass to soaring tenor make a spectacular musical combination. The recently refurbished Theatre at Washington, Va. noted for its good accoustics, will provide a fine setting for the New Year’s Day concert.

The Christmas basket project began over 13 years ago offering seasonal cheer to just 10 families. It has grown over the years to number more than 65. “It’s been bad all along but it has gotten worse,” said Mrs. Davis, adding the success of the annual drive belongs to the county. “It depends on the generosity of the people,” she skid.

The Audit Bureau THURSDAY, DECEMBER 26, 1991 A new middle school We urge all interested parents and Rappahannock taxpayers to attend the public information exchange and presentation regarding the proposed middle school construction at Rappahannock High at 7:30 p.m. Jan. 2. Superintendent Dr. David Gangel, whose study^6ommittee recommended the new school, will present the baejcground information and the rationale for a middle school. In these lean times, we suspect many in the county are reacting suspiciously to the need for a multi-million-dollar project, but the superintendent has wisely had a citizens’ group study the plan (however, committee membership was not a cross section of the county, but was dominated by school system insiders). An opposition group is already circulating a petition against the new school, and plans to be at the Jan. 2 meeting in large numbers. They say there aren’t enough students in the school system (about 1,000 this year) to justify the new building. A public meeting is the perfect place to put the two perspectives on the table. It should be an informative and useful forum. The Christmas wish (Where's Grandpa?) By WALTER DAY 'Twas the day after Christmas And there on our floor Were papers and ribbons From the can to the door. The children are fighting Over what somebody got And we are just about ready To beat each with the mop. And now your correspondent will tell you how to deal with Christmas when you are old and gray. When you have reached my age, 69 summers, and you are male (women either have more heart or a stronger guilt complex) you should have had enough. Your children’s children range in age from 1 to 17. You have met with triumph and disaster (and you never treated those two imposters just the same). You have been wet on, bitten, slobbered on, cried on, picked on, reviled, loved, and even laughed at and with. You have gone into debt and worked through the night. When it’s added up the day after Christmas, what have you got, besides exhaustion, frustration and the flu? Several years ago I tried to get all the givers and receivers to make all the presents themselves. The receivers vetoed the idea. So this year I sat down and planned a different Christmas Day By Day very carefully. I borrowed several costumes, including a Santa suit, and made a 20 minute video. It was a very good performance that included a thank you for saving me money, my undying love, respect, pride and admiration. Right now as you are picking up paper bits, separating screamers, hoping everyone will go home soon, perhaps thinking you are breathing your last, I am on a golf course a little south and west of Albuquerque.

He explained that a recent Supreme Court decision approved the roadblocks, providing for a number of stringent requirements to reduce the possibility of abuse by enforcement officials, and he took the time to explain those requirements to me in detail. These, presumably, are things that any law enforcement officer should know, and I am still uneasy about roadblocks; nevertheless, it gives me a warm feeling to know that in our county we have a sheriff who is not only aware of the legal constraints of procedures, but who also understands and is sensitive to the reasoning behind those constraints, and who will take the time to explain them.

BILL FITSSIMONS Flint Hill Support Pilgrim's Way To the Editor: The Christmas season will soon be over and people will have to get back to the reality of making ends meet; that is, by trying to make their money last from one pay check to the next. Some will not even have Christmas. For many this is going to be very difficult because many people have lost their jobs due to these financially hard times. 1 Regardless of the lack of money, children continue to grow. They need food to grow healthy, strong bodies and minds, and they outgrow their clothes. When times are hard food is hard to come by and new clothes suddenly become priceless treasured items. We have for many years depended upon the government to take up the slack when a family is down on its luck. Our government is the best in the world, but it depends on tax dollars to supply its services.

The result may be a cut back in the charitable welfare grants to families in need. The months of January and February are considered to be the most difficult, bleak time of the year for some people. This is the time of the year we are into now. If predictions hold true, we can expect to see an increase in emotional depression, suicide and thefts during these winter months. Soon the economic recession will be over, but what are we doing in the meantime? There is something that can be done. During good times people often accumulate more clothes, more tools, more toys and household things than they can use, and perhaps in some cases will ever use.

Commissioned last April, the Kitty Hawk is the first carrier in the world to be armed entirely with guided missiles. 20 YEARS AGO December 23,1971 Trooper R.A Baines Jr., Virginia State Police, reported for permanent duty in Rappahannock County on Monday, December 20, 1971. He fills the vacancy created when Trooper J.B. Willis of Sperryville requested a transfer to Culpeper County. A resident of Bald wins ville, N.Y., at the time of appointment, Mr. Baines graduated from Suffolk High School in 1962 and the following year studied at Elon College in North Carolina. He won high school letters in basketball and football and is interested in fishing and sports. As a result of redistricting Rappahannock County following the action of the 1971 General Assembly, the Rappahannock County School Trustee Electoral Board vacated all positions on the Rappahannock School Board and made new appointments. A member for each election district was named as well as one member at large which was authorized by the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors at its December meeting. This action was taken Tuesday night at a meeting of the Trustee Electoral Board which had been recessed from the prior Monday, December 13 meeting. At the Monday evening meeting a representative group of Citizens Association members appeared before the Trustee Board and presented recommendations from which selections might be made.

Washington Volunteer Fire and Rescue Company will receive $20,000 in a 50-50 match for a basic life support ambulance to replace the old unit that has been broken down for much of the past year. “This is entirely state money that was appropriated for this purpose by the General Assembly,” Rosson reported. In addition, the county’s fire and rescue association was awarded an $11,600 grant to assist in procuring a disptach communications system. The money is allocated as an 80-20 percnent hardship match.: The Piedmont Environmental Council Board of Directors voted at its December meeting to activate the Piedmont Land Revolving Fund, which PEC describes as “a bold new tool for preserving the landscape of Piedmont Virginia.” A drive is underway to raise an initial $500,000 with which to commence operations. The purpose of the Fund is to purchase key Piedmont tracts threatened with conversion to unsuitable uses, and to resell those properties to private parties after easements or covenants have been placed on them. The primary focus of the Fund will be the preservation of farmland in strategic areas. Already, PEC has received $100,000 for the Fund. The afghan given away Monday evening by the Rappahannock Mental Health Association went to Mrs. Edna S. Haines of Warrenton.

O'Bannon Continued from page A-l modest person,” Rev. Jones said. “I’ve noticed most natives of Rappahannock are very closed-mouthed about what they do.” He spent 22 years on the Rappahannock School Board, and is known in the county as a generous supsf porter of just about every group and fundraising cause in the school system. Some of Mr. O’Bannon’s employees can be more specific about his character. Marlon Haggerty said he’s a “fantastic” man to work for. She said any school group that comes in gets a substantial discount on merchandise. He also provides space for them to sell their fundraising merchandise. “He shows his employees kindness and generosity,” she said. “He’s a very good-natured, down-to-earth person.” Diane Grigsby agreed. “He’ll help the poorest person there is,” she said. She added that poor and handicapped customers often buy merchandise at or below cost. “Well below cost,” Mrs. Haggerty said. Mr. O’Bannon eats lunch with his employees when he is at the store. He buys the food, and they cook it. “Anything we eat, he eats,” Mrs. Haggerty said. She said recently they had been eating a lot of pinto beans, since Mr. O’Bannon had bought several pounds. Perhaps the person who has known Mr. O’Bannon the longest is Allen Stokes. Their mothers were roommates, and they were born only a few months apart. Although Mr. Stokes grew up in the Farmville area, they visited often, and “as soon as I was old enough to leave home,” Mr. Stokes started spending his summers at Clover Hill, the O’Bannons’ family farm. The Olivers live there now, occupying the house as headquarters for Eldon Farm. As boys they helped with the haying and making silage. They drove a team of mules to bring the com to the silo. They also drove a mule to bring water and lunch to the Democrats elect officers The Rappahannock County Democratic Committee elected a slate of officers for 1992 at its December meeting. Kent Reeve was elected chairman after serving as vice chairman last year; and last year’s chairman, Doug Baumgardner, was elected vice chairman for 1992.

For fun they swam in the river at Rock Mills and went to the “all day dinner and meetings on the church grounds on Sundays.” In later years they went into partnership to breed Charolais cattle. Now Mr. O’Bannon hs given up farming except for a large garden. Jimmy Falls rents the land that came from Mrs. O’Bannon’s family. ; “He’s a very outgoing person and he’s not looking for a lot of recognition,” said Mr. Falls. “He’s just a good fella, that’s all.” “He’s one of the best givers in our little church down here, and one of the best friends a person can have,” said Woodville farmer Raymond Johnson, a longtime friend. “I don’t know of any person I have more respect for than Maurice O’Bannon.” Supervisor and former Sheriff Charles K. “Pete” Estes travels sometimes with Mr. O’Bannon on buying trips. “He knows all the good places to eat between Atlanta and New York on the East Coast and west to Ohio,” Mr. Estes said. “He’s basically a farmer at heart,” he added. He said Mr. O’Bannon constantly comments during the trips about the livestock and crops they see along the way. He notes that Mr. O’Bannon provides employment for many local people. “He provides a second income for families that enhances their standard of living,” he said. He notes that customers attracted to the Emporium also add to the tourist business in Sperryville. “He has a knack for knowing what people will buy,” he said. “He holds it up to his imaginary yardstick and says, ‘That will sell.’ ” He adds that usually Mr. O’Bannon is right, but sometimes it doesn’t sell. “There is a certain amount of risk in buying all that stuff. It might sit on the shelf and have several birthdays,” he said. When they take off on a buying MORE MUSIC!

He’s good-natured, always in a very good humor, and that’s the secret of his business success.” Mr. O’Bannon was bom on Independence Day, 1923, an only child. He attended grade school in Woodville, survived the Woodville tornado of May, 1929, and went to high school in the building now occupied by the Emporium. After finishing at Sperryville High in 1941, he spent two years at Virginia Polytechnic Institute before getting a farming deferment from the draft. Meanwhile his future wife, Louise Rudasill, was attending Madison College and Richmond Polytechnic, getting a nursing degree. She graduated and worked for two months before they were married. The couple have four children: John Maurice III, a Richmond neurologist; Robert Hill, who is with C&P Telephone; Rappahannock High librarian Elizabeth Catherine O’Bannon Scott and Martha Louise O’Bannon, who works at the Emporium. Planners Continued from page A-1 and the cost of using two buses for round trips to Piedmont each day, Dr. Gangel said Piedmont was costing $3,950 per student. He said he had only very rough figures for offering vocational education locally, but felt it could be done for less money. He said with such programs available locally, college-bound as well as vocational students could participate. Mr. Clark asked if the program at Piedmont could be altered so students would go there full-time some days and stay at the high school on others. Dr. Krebser added that an additional cost of Piedmont is that stu . dents spend one and a half hours of their school day riding buses. Dr. Gangel said he estimated the middle school would cost between $3 million and $3.5 million. Jackson District representative David Fannon estimated that would mean another $250,000 to $300,000 to service the debt. “Where is that money going to come from?” he asked. The Planning Commission is currently working on an update of the Capital Improvements Plan. It includes $100,000 to purchase land for a new school in the 1993 budget year but no funds to build a school. County Administrator John McCarthy said he would not add funds to build a school to the plan “unless I am told to do so.” He also said he would have to add funds to the plan to raise the tower 20 to 40 feet for the radio equipment at the Sheriffs PUBLIC HEARING COUNTY SEAL CONTEST The Board of Supervisors of Rappahannock County will hold a Public Hearing on Monday, January 6,1991 at 7:00 p.m. ot tha Courthouse in Washington, VA, to elicit public comment on the submissions for the County Seal contest.

AYLOR Merry Christmas to everyone. Frances Thornton honored Frances Thornton of Sperry ville was among three women honored by the Rappahannock-Rapidan Community Services Board (RRCSB) at its annual Christmas luncheon and board meeting on Dec. 10. Mrs. Thornton, Carolyn Henry of Culpeper and Ruth Anne Paisley of Orange were recognized for their many years of service to the board and to their communities. Mrs. Thornton was a charter member of the Chapter 10 Board (a precursor to the RRCSB) from Rappahannock County and has been on the RRCSB since 1974. Two years ago the RRCSB honored Mrs. Thornton and Louise Aylor for their years of dedication and service on the board by naming the Aylor-Thornton Building after them. She was a member of the board's executive search committee in 1990 that interviewed more than 270 applicants before hiring Eldon Taylor. Mr. Taylor is the fifth executive director to serve under Mrs. Thornton. Due to state regulations, Mrs. Thornton is taking a sabbatical from the RRCSB (required after two terms). Mr. Taylor said he hopes she returns after a year. “Frances Thornton is a truly outstanding human services professional. Her dedication, caring, and wisdom have well served the citizens of Rappahannock County .and the RRCSB and its clients and provided an excellent example for others to aspire to achieve. She is an ideal member of a human services board of directors. Frances understands her responsibility as a member of the governing board, always did her homework and acted in the longterm interests of the citizens of (Planning District 9),” said Mr. Taylor.
