S Virgil Jewell says he dmws the line at ripping open plastic trash bag$ -■£ jji Mi&S ■ w I Sen is Section Washington revis historic ordinance By MARK SCOLFORO Rappahannock New* Staff Writer After deciding to make a slew of changes to the Washington Historic District Ordinance two weeks ago, the town’s Planning Commission and Architectural Review Board scheduled one more work session on the controversial legislation. The recent work session was held during an official meeting of the town Planning Commission, but the ordinance was the only order of business. The next work session will be held Monday, Jan. 6, and the Town Council will hold a public hearing on the proposed new ordinance before it is adopted. The most contentious issues that the group addressed dealt with ARB membership, special meetings, the two districts within the town, regulations governing paint colors and the difference between renovation and demolition. The group also changed the fine structure for Historic District Ordinance violations. Board membership Discussion on the membership issue focused on provisions that permit people who aren’t town residents (or property owners) to sit on the ARB. The reason those provisions were originally passed is that the Council of Local Governments (CLG), which certifies town ARBs, strongly prefers for towns to have architects or planners on their boards. With Washington’s population of just under 200, the number of residents with those credentials is very small. Whayne H. Haffler, an architect who owns property in the Flint Hill area, had been sitting on the ARB before resigning in protest over the renovations to the Byrd Jones house by the Inn’s owners, Patrick O’Connell and Reinhardt Lynch. He at-; tended the work session. Mr. O’Connell, who is also an ; ARB member, said the ARB wanted • to make residence in the town a requirement of board membership. ‘ He said that the feeling among * the remaining board members was • that anyone passing a law ought to; be subject to it, and that there was 1 “a certain unfairness that would Jbe; perceived.” Eve Willis, an ARB member, • said the ban on non-residents was a * political, not a practical, decision. “I; like having an architect around. I think politically the town doesn’t* want us to have a non-resident.” - Ray Gooch, one of four Town * Council members to attend the work 1 session, argued that having an ar- * chitect on the board has been benefi- ' dal. He said Mr. Haffler asked good * questions, could read blueprints and * was familiar with other technical as- i pects of architecture. ) Mr. Gooch also said a non-voting * architect on the board would not be ' workable. He said that the county, has a stake in the future of Washing- ‘ ton. “We’re the county seat ... we; owe the county a responsibility for ’ keeping the town the way both the town and the county want it to be,” he said. - * "Town Attorney Frank Reynolds ‘ said the CLG only asks localities to make their best efforts to have an . architect on the ARB, and that there - are certified boards without architects in Virginia. Mr. Haffler said he “would urge! i you all to make every attempt to - have an architect or a planner on the board.” “I think it was a healthy thing, Sm ORDINANCE, p. 2 Federal payments cover social services cuts By JEFF NELSON Arundel Newspaper* State Writer County social services programs are unlikely to be affected by state budget cuts due to increased federal aid, according to a memo from the state Department of Social Services. Counties are getting little information about the effects of the 6-percent cuts in all state agencies Gov. L. Douglas Wilder says he will impose in the 1993-94 fiscal year budget due Jan. 8. State agencies and depart-'1 ments have turned in budgets reflecting 3-, 6-, and 9percent cuts. The effects of those budgets is slowly making its way to local offices. Only the county social services departments are reporting memos from their state offices. According to a memo from state Social Services Commissioner Larry Jackson, new federal money will replace funds lost to the 6-percent cuts. The governor’s word on the subject will not come down until Jan. 8 with the presentation of the budget and the State of the * Commonwealth address. Those social services not affected by the cuts are Aid to Families with Dependent Children, foster care payments, auxiliary grants and transitional day care. Cuts in state funding for day care and social services block grants were included in the budget-reduction plan. Jackson noted that a cut of $296,000 from the block grants program may lead to layoffs at some local offices, but that the state anticipates federal funding increases will prevent layoffs. The state is proposing to shift the block grant program to the federal government. State and local social services organizations could not be reached for comment by press time. Talk focuses on Inuits Canadian Eskimos known for their art The Rappahannock Library will oner an evening dedicated to the Inuit—or Eskimo— people of the Canadian Arctic, their history, the harshness of the climate and land in which they live, and above all, their art at 8 p.m. Friday, Jan. 10. Judith Varney Burch of Richmond, a docent for 20 years for the Virginia Museum of Fine Art, will show slides, sculpture, drawings, prints and wall hangings of the Inuit that she has collected in her annual visits to the Canadian Arctic over the last six years. v What first attracted her to Inuit art, says Mrs. Burch, was its “sense of authenticity and honesty.” In her visits, she has become friends with artists and families, sometimes relying on children to act as interpreters when communicating with older Inuits. From the start, she collected only the finest examples of Inuit art. The subjects which the artists portray include animals, birds, seals, walrus, whales and narwhal, as well as human and spirit figures. She likes to share her knowledge and love of arctic art through museums and gallery lectures, and as curator for a number of exhibits. With the assistance of the government of Canada’s Northwest Territories, she has helped bring several of the leading contemporary Inuit artists to the United States. Since all Inuit live above the tree line, one of the artists said that watching the leaves fall in Richmond was ence. As Mrs. B Inuit art illusi the natural and si ronment...

They will hold a public hearing again on the submissions at their January meeting next week and perhaps select a county seal then. Stephen Wagner submitted a design with corn and apples in the foreground, and cows, a hone and deer in a pasture with mountains * in the background. Musical notea are in the clouds above the mountains and pasture. Four of the constitutional officers wrote the supervisors suggesting that the county seal feature the county courthouse. Commissioner of Revenue Beverly Atkins, Treasurer Frances Foster, Cleric of the Court Diane Bruce and Sheriff John Henry Woodward wrote suggesting the county use the picture of the courthouse that appears on the county automobile decal or another similar one with i the words “Rappahannock County, Virginia, 1883“ surrounding it. Their suggested entry did not include camera-ready art.

County library hosts lecture on resources Rappahannock County has many outstanding resources close by. The Rappahannock Library First Friday Series will focus on some of them in its next program at 8 p.m. Friday, Jan. 3. An anticipated speaker will be Lee Capps of the Northern Virginia 4-H Educational, Retreat, Conference and Camping Center near Chester Gap. Purposes of the 4-H Center include providing summer camps for the region, hosting Camp Fantastic and other, conferences. It is a private, non-profit but publicly assisted organization. Ed Clark, who is from Flint Hill, will be discussing The Wildlife Center of Virginia, which is in Weyers Cave, near Waynesboro. Mary B. Lowe, a park ranger and supervisor of fee collection, will! be speaking about the Shenandoah National Park. Dr. Sam Wasser will be discussing the Smithsonian Institution Conservation and Research Center near Front Royal. It is anticipated that some participants will be bringing visual aids. The program, which is free of charge, will be held at the new Rappahannock County Library located on U.S. 211, east of Washington, Va. Babysitting will not be available for this month’s offering. The First Friday Series will continue on Feb. 7 with a second program on Living and Working in Rappahannock County. Ordinance Continued from page A-1 the time I spent on the board,” he added. The issue was left with Mr. Reynolds promising to draft new language that will allow one nonresident, including some wording that the ARB should consider those with similar qualifications (planning, architecture, etc.). Special meetings The ARB has held two special meetings in recent months, most recently to address possible violations of the Byrd Jones house Certificate of Appropriateness. As a result of criticism about the special meetings, tiie work session group addressed the question of when and how special meetings should be called. Mr. Reynolds pointed out that the ARB should not call meetings because of apparent violations. The correct procedure, he said, is that the Zoning Administrator (for the town, John McCarthy) should issue a Stop Work Order if needed. Because of that procedure, he said, Your Certificates of Appropriateness should be extremely detailed.” The work session group decided that either the ARB chainnan or a majority of its members ought to be allowed to call special meetings, but decided to add “discouraging language” as well. Also, the group’s consensus was that notice of special meetings should be published in the newspaper a week in advance.

The Rappahannock News it published every Thursday by Rappahannock Newt, a division of ingly to take out reference to the socalled Avon District, which was differentiated to allow separate rules to apply on Mount Salem Avenue, where the homes are newer. The original intent was to be able to treat older homes different, but Mr. Reynolds pointed out that changes in t^ordinance allow for each indivufiial structure to be examined imependently. Paint colors The group also wrestled with the issue of paint colors. Because the ARB reviews paints and paint combinations, the public perception is 'that the board is arbitrary and is trying to “dictate taste.” Removing reference to paint colors, said Mr. HafDer, "is one way you could take your foot off the public’s neck.” I ARB members said paint colors > are rejected very infrequently, but it does happen. To allow town residents to bypass the ARB on paint colors, it was decided that members of the work session group would come up with a comprehensive chart of hundreds of acceptable colors and color combinations, and only those who wish to use colors not on the chart will have to' get ARB approval. A straw vote to drop any reference to colon passed 6-4, but then the group decided that the comprehensive chart will allow the town to avoid the truly tacky (pink polkadots were used as the example). Demolitions Mr. Reynolds said the issue of . when a renovation becomes a demolition ought to be addressed when the ARB writes its Certificates of . Appropriateness. “The certificates should specify what is important and ought to be preserved,” said Mr. Reynolds. Regular Sales | Every Tuesday \ HORSE SALE I 2nd Sat., 10 a.m., Every Month !

Rappahannock County Public School Enrollment September 1979-September 1991 Public school enrollment has started to climb again after a decade of decrease, one reason for a committee recommendation that the county build a middle school. Note that elementary school enrollment has climbed faster than overall enrollment, and that other factors contributed to the committee’s decision. An information exchange and presentation regarding the proposed middle school will occur at Rappahannock High, 7:30 p.m. Jan. 2. Superintendent Dr. David Gangel will present the background information and the reasons why a middle school is needed. Garden Club honors members The Rappahannock County Garden Club honored Helen Fairfax and Christine Johnston in a surprise ceremony at their Christmas luncheon held at Bowling Green Country Club recently. Christine Johnston, a 1979 inductee of the Garden Club, was awarded State Life Membership in the Virginia Federation of Garden Clubs for her service to the Rappahannock County Garden Club. Helen Fairfax, past president of the club and State Life Member of the Virginia Federation of Garden Clubs, was awarded National Life Membership in the National Council of State Garden Clubs for her many years of dedication to the Rappahannock County Garden Club since joining the organization in the eariy ’70s. Mrs. Fairfax continues as an active member and has just commenced a three-year stint on the club’s Scholarship Board. Judy Halle and Helen Bridges hosted the beautifully arranged luncheon and it was served before a , roaring fire in the ballroom of the ■'dub. “ Scarves, hats, gloves and mit► tens were wrapped in gay Christmas [ paper and donated by the mem► bership for distribution by Social ’ Services to the less fortunate.

The first half of each evening of “The Exchange” features selected excerpts from the works of Tom Davenport and Sidney Platt, Paul Reisler, Frederick Hart, Dinah Pehrson-Day and Ted Pugh. The second half of the evening is a dynamic discussion with the audience members . . . their questions and insights, reactions to the works and topics such as the interactive relationship between culture and community. This year, in addition to the fea-' tured artists, four members of the community, scholars bringing years of professional insight into the relationship between art and the community, will help focus and direct the discussions. The discussion leaders for this year's “Exchange” will be John Beardsley, a consultant, writer and curator, Jane Coon, a career diplomat and former Ambassador to Bangladesh; William Dietel, the former Assistant Dean of Amherst College, instructor of history and former president of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund; and Julie Portman, anObie-Award winning theater artist and Fulbright Scholar to India. “The Exchange” will begin with an opening night event on Jan. 12 for subscribers and members of Ki Theatre at “The Meadows,” home of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Barton, Washington, Va. Subscription cost is $25 (or $20, for Ki Theatre members) and covers admission to each of the Sunday eve* ning “Exchange” programs, as well as the opening night event.

JBPm Audit Bureau Editorial Editorial Platform *Where th&press is free, and every man able to read, allissafe.’ — Thomas Jefferson The Rappahannock News regards several bedrock issues to be of special importance to the character and heritage of Rappahannock County, and takes these consistent editorial positions on them. 1. Growth and development must be planned and controlled through strong, clear and fairly enforced zoning regulations sensitive to Rappahannock’s character, powerful beauty and the quality of life of its people. Development plans must be recon- * ciled with the county’s Comprehensive Plan, which serves as the essential roadmap to our future. 2. Education standards should be steadily raised and facilities updated in recognition that education is the key to unleashing the potential of our youth. 3. New business and clean industry for economic expansion should be actively sought to provide new employment opportunities here for our residents and their children under conditions that ensure that these businesses are self-supporting, not a burden on the tax base. Tourism and the business that supports it should be strongly encouraged, since they provide revenue without the attendant nuyor public services demanded by other industries. 4. Volunteerism, a hallmark of those who live in this proud and independent community, will be supported and encouraged as a continuing reflection of the strong timber and fierce spirit of the Rappahannock heritage. 5. Recognizing that none of these objectives may be realized without a vigorous, democratic local government, this newspaper will remain politically independent and- independently investigate any abuse of public trust by public officials.

Critzer of Washington, "Ya^Jias tendered his resignation as sheriff of Rappahannock County, effective January 15. He has held this office for eleven and a half years. Mr. Critzer was appointed by Judge J.R.H. Alexander on May 18, 1950, to fill the unexpired term of James Lilian!, ending December 31, 1951. He duly qualified before the Clerk of the Court, James M. Settle, and took the oath of office the same day. Mr. Critzer was opposed in the November ’51 election by Robert W. Brown and was re-elected by a great majority with the vote at 541 to 268. In the Democratic primary of July 1955, Mr. Critzer was opposed by Joel Jenkins and Jake Keyqer and again he was reelectechtb office with a landslide vote. The election of .1959 brought Frank Huff as a candidate in opposition to Mr. Critzer and though the count was closer than at any other time, the incumbent was re-elected for a third term. Charles K. Estes of Sperryville has been appointed to fill the unexpired term of Mr. Critzer. Miss Barbara Louise Jones of Portsmouth, Virginia, and presently employed as Assistant Home Demonstration Agent in Dinwiddie County, will assume the duties of Home Demonstration Agent in Rappahannock County on January 16, 1962. This position has been vacant since November 16, due to the is was the news resignation of Miss Anna Ruth Barnette to be married. Edward F. Clatterbuck of Arlington, Va. killed an albino deer in Gid Brown Hollow in December. As far as is known this deer is the first of its kind killed in the county. 20 YEARS AGO January 6,1972 Officials for Rappahannock County elected in November have been sworn in and assumed duties the first day of the year. The Board of Supervisors will hold the first meeting of the s new year today (Thureday). Mrs. Virginia D. Smith, newly elected to the post of Commissioner of the Revenue, has selected Mrs. Merle Scoggin as her deputy. Everett Estes of Washington has been selected by incoming Sheriff John Walker Jenkins as his deputy and Jonas Alther will remain as Jail Custodian for the county. Ray Jackson remains, also, as an unpaid deputy; Mrs. Dorothy Leake of Sperry ville will continue as secretary for the Sheriffs department and for the Commonwealth’s Attorney George H. Davis Jr. who continues in this office. The Rappahannock Panthers won their second game of the season Tuesday night by outscoring the Central High School Falcons 44-41. The game was close all the way, with neither team acquiring more than a fivepoint lead. Central led most of the first half with their fine guard Sonny Jackson. However, center Harry Jordan of Rappahannock tipped the second half opening top-off to Ronnie Myers who laid it up to put the Panthers ahead 22-21. Central later rallied but could never overcome the tough defense. Standard and Advanced First Aid Classes will begin Tuesday, January 11 at Flint Hill firehall. The 26-hour course will be under the direction of Mrs. Bertha Armel and will meet twice weekly, on Tuesday and Thursday nights, from 7 until 9 p.m. Anyone wishing to take the course is extended an invitation. 10 YEARS AGO January 7,1982 County dog tags for 1982 must be purchased by January 31 and this year, dog warden Jack Bruce warns that he’ll begin issuing summones after that deadline if the tags aren’t dangling from the collars of local canines. “All the wardens in this area are having one heck of a time getting people to buy licenses,” said Bruce. “People know the law and they still won’t buy their tags. I try to be nice about it and go to them and remind them that they have to license their dogs. They say they’re going to do it and then they don’t. I bend over backwards to give them breaks and they lie about it and still don’t do it,” the warden complained. In the past, Bruce noted, he’s been hesitant to write summones but he warned he’ll take enforcer ment action this year. ; Washington cabinet maker Peter Kramer played Santa Claus to the county the day before Christmas, offering the board of supervisors a new courthouse clock. If accepted, it will replace the old Coca-Cola timepiece that was hung over the scales of justice in the upstairs court room since time immemorial. The impetus for designing a clock came some time ago, Kramer explained, when real estate agent Roger Batchelder volunteered to buy a clock for the courthouse. “I said not to do that, that I’d make one.” In response, the supervisors authorized $75 to be Spent on “works” for a clock. That was in 1978. “The moods of an artist are funny, Kramer joked in explaining the lapse between commission and completion of the project. “I finally got the design in my head and found the time to do the work.” There will be a student-faculty volleyball game on Friday, January 8th, beginning at 8 p.m. at the Rappahannock County High School. Proceeds will benefit the annual 7th grade class trip to Williamsburg. Admission is $1.00. Suthard leaves, sadly, under a cloud By JOHN GOOLRICK It is sad to see a long and distinguished career end the. way that of Robert L. Suthard is ending. Not once in all the years of public service had the slightest breath of scandal ever touched Bob Suthard. If there was any man I regarded as a model of ethical behavior, often under tough circumstances, it would be him. And yet regretfully, Mr. Suthard, a former State Police superintendent, picked by Gov. Douglas * Wilder to be his Secretary of Public Safety, resigned under a cloud. I don’t have to go into all the details for they have been widely published and broadcast. Certainly, under the circumstances, Bob Suthard did the right thing in submitting his resignation, the governor Wisely accepted it and Attorney General Mary Sue Terry very propeny undertook an investigation, j I have admired Bob Suthard for ids decency, his good humor and his contributions tolfcw enforcement. I believe him when he says he at no time had any intention of keeping any of the money he was given while in Japan. Yet in this day and time the public will no longer tolerate even an appearance of impropriety in public officials, and that’s as it should be. . In resigning, I think Bob Suthard recognized that, though he pays an awful price in being the first Vir ginia cabinet member to leave office under such conditions. • The Christmas card mailed out by Senator Charles Robb shows, as usual, a phonograph of Robb, his wife, Lynda Bird, and their daughters, Lucinda, Cathy and Jennifer. The simple message says, “With the hope that 1992 will be a better year for all of us—we wish you a joyous holiday season.” Certainly, one hopes, no matter of what political persuadion, the next year will be a better one for Sen. Robb than the politically and personally devastating year just passed—a year full of media attention to his Virginia Beach lifestyle while governor and the now famous tape recording of Gov. Wilder. Two of Sen. Robb’s top lieutenants who resigned under fire, David McCloud and Bobby Watson, are working elsewhere now, while a third, former press secretary Steve Johnson, is reportedly writing a book about Robb. All three aides remain under scrutiny of a grand jury investigating release of the Wilder tape recording. It’s hard to see how 1992 could be any worse for Robb, though it could get considerably worse for the three former aides if the grand jury hands down indictments. • Who understands redistricting? Apparently only a handful of people do. With congressional districts drastically revised, members of Con gress and their staffs are reporting that most people they come in contact with think the district changes will become effective immediately and that they will lose overnight their present members of Congress. Actually, the present lines will hold through all of next year, though some members of Congress who will have to seek re-election in revamped districts will be keeping an eye on those new lines while continuing to represent constituents they’ll no longer have after election. “It’s like doing double duty,” said an assistant to one Virginia conr gressman. “You don’t want anybody accusing you of ignoring constituents just because you’ll be losing them, but you also want your future potential constituents to know who you are and that you’d welcome the opportunity to represent them. We’re going to have to work twice as hard this coming year.” (Editor’s note: John Goolriek, a former political reporter, is now aide to 7th District U.S. Rep. George Allen, R-Va.

Dumpsters y Continued from page A-1 board has stopped short of asking him to stop tiie practice altogether. Scavenging is, however, actively prohibited at the landfill in .Amissville. "They figure the more they cany away, the less that goes into the ’landfill,” said the sheriff. Deputies still patrol the sites, looking for cars without county stickers and checkling, to make sure that only the permitted types of trash are deposited. I Virgil said he mostly looks for aluminum cans and old car batteries—both are worth cash to dealers (in Culpeper and Front Royal. The day after Christmas his find was •more bountiful than usual, consisting of a partially damaged cane basket, an old rotary telephone, a clothes iron of questionable mechani,cal reliability and a child’s tote bag with Disney art decorations. > The container overflowed with (Christmas wrappings, boxes and Mother holiday remnants. ‘ Virgil doesn’t give the trash the going over that some do, he said. ^“There’s one group from down (around Charlottesville, when (they’re through it looks like a bunch lof chickens done picked through it,” ;said Virgil. Himself, he draws the •line at ripping open plastic trash bags and pokes at the pile with a '.metal rod he recovered some time ago. The dumpster sites are sometimes referred to as "Tysons Corner” or the "Scrabble Mall,” and some patrons go out of their way to leave items that are marginally usefill on the edge of the dumpster, although regulations prohibit it. Virgil said he sees the sense in it, having found some of his best items outside the container. Last Thursday he wanted to bring home a "perfectly good” double-bed mattress that was kind of grungy but basically sound. "I don't have nowhere to keep it without the rats gettin’ to it,” he said. So the mattress stayed, at least for the time being. The Huntly site is more regularly picked-over, drawing whole families from Chester Gap and Front Royal. Not too long ago I went to throw a plastic bag into the container in Huntly and barely stopped myself when a little head popped up from inside. That was the same week a woman in another state was crushed to death when she couldn't escape the compacter. There have been fires at the dumpster sites, said the sheriff, but he attributed them to people dumping partially extinguished trash barrells in the containers, not vandalism. And there haven’t been any reported accidents yet, but some might say it’s only a matter of. time. Myself, I’d be much more worried about the germs, but Virgil said he doesn’t give it a second thought. "I wear gloves,” he said. The Inn collects 4-star guide honors The Mobil Travel Guide announced last week in USA Today that The Inn at Little Washington again earned the guide’s highest awards—Five Stars for its restaurant and Five Stars for its accommodations. The Inn once again becomes the only establishment in Mobil’s history to. ever receive two Five Star ratings. Eleven restaurants and only eight hotels in America received Five Star designations this year. More than 20,000 establishments are listed in Mobil’s guide annually. “Five Star Award winners epitomize the best possible experience in dining and lodging across North America,” says Peter A. Spina, vice president, public affairs, Mobil Corporation. “Each restaurant and lodging winning Five Stars truly is one of • the best in the country.” The American Automobile Association also announced 1992 winners of its coveted Five Diamond Awards. Again this year The Inn received Five Diamoncirv for its restaurant and Five Di- ’ amonds for its guestrooms, mak- / ing it one of only 16 restaurants in America so honored by The AAA TourBook. The Five Diamond Awards will be presented during ceremonies on Jan. 31 at The Pan Pacific Hotel ip Vancouver, British Columbia. The Washington, D.C. Zagat Restaurant Survey for 1992 was also released this month rating The Inn at Little Washington the Number 1 restaurant in the Nation’s Capital again, giving The Inn the highest rating in all categories and the highest scores received nationwide. Proprietors of The Inn, Chef Patrick O’Connell and Host Reinhardt Lynch, were “thrilled” with so much good news in one week.

Wakefield School puts on Science Fair Michelle Egan, a senior at Wakefield School in Marshall, won “best in show” for her Science Fair exhibit exploring* various environments of brine shrimp. The Science Fair featured 40 exhibits by prep school students in addition to exhibits by students in the pre-kindergarten through grade 7. The four divisions of the show were judged by experts in the various fields. Gary Fillmore, a biology teacher at Woodson High School in Fairfax County, judged the biological sciences exhibits. Linda Daniels, a doctor of radiology with Virginia Radiology Associates, juried the medical and health sciences displays. It was her first time as a judge for the Wakefield show and spent over two hours finalizing her decision. The chemistry and physics exhibits were judged by Brian Patterson, an instructor of chemistry and physics at Rappahannock High School and a representative to the Piedmont Regional Science Fair. Finally, in the earth and space science division, former Science Department Chairman Art Zoebelein acted as judge. Best in show winner Michelle Egan’s detailed study of brine shrimp tested the hypothesis that all species migrate to an environment of choice. Egan provided three envi ronments: hot and cold, light and dark, and add and base. She painstakingly recorded the shrimp’s movements over a period of time and subsequently proved her original hypothesis to be false. In the medidne and health category. Stephanie Harre of Warrenton won first place for her ambitious study of dental caries and how sugar and add contribute to the demineralization of tooth enamel. Several judges commented on the excellent study conducted by Harre. Kirsten Burton took second place with her entry on natural and chemical face cleaners. Burton discovered that regular witch hazel cleaned most effectively, even when compared to far more expensive products. Several students appear to be budding consumer reporters. Jody Waldron of Rectortown examined which mouthwash works best using smears made on culture plates to assess the amount of remaining bacteria. Waldron took third place for his study. 0 In the biology division, Britt Krividch of The Plains won first place for her impressive “Enquiry into the Effects of Electricity on Plants.” Krivicich began the study for her Science Fair project last year subjecting plants to six volts of current, which had a positive effect on the growth. This year’s plants were subjected to 12 volts, which in fact stunted the growth. At the project's end, Krivicich went away on vacation and was surprised upon her return to find that the damaged plants were able to recover once the electrical current was removed. Second place in biology went to Min Sang Kim of The Plains and Fairfax. Kim undertook a very complicated and sophisticated study to find the relationship between the wing speed and flight direction of moths. Physics instructor Charles McGlothlin complimented Kim on the ambitious and well-executed project. Alison Martin of Flint Hill won third place in the division of her study of “The Mystery of Memory and Intelligence Unlocked.” In physics/chemistry/engineering, Diana Fry of Catlett won first place with her study of enzymatic catalysis in fruits and vegetables. Second place was awarded to Peter Culley of Summit Point, W.Va. for his display and study on magnetic pull. Celine Senseney of Charles Town, W.Va. was awarded third place for her testing of chlorine levels in tap water in Virginia and West Virginia.._' Finally, in the earth/space science division, Mika Irani of Front Royal won first prize for his study of sun spots and their effect on AM ra dio waves. Irani’s presentation was very polished. Virginia Yount of Wairenton also had an excellent presentation on mineral identification which earned her second place. Third prize was won by Trevor Herndon of Warrenton for his study of plate tectonics. Several honorable mentions were made. These included Willie D’Angelo-Horvath of Linden, Colleen Harrell of Haymarket and Scott Racer of Berryville. Members of Wakefield’s Science Department were impressed with the quality and sophistication of the projects; more students undertook more difficult enquiries. In addition, even students who do not take a course in science participated; showing how science effects all aspects of life. &appaf)attnock JJetoS now has direct lines for CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING 1 -800-852-4797 USDA Choice Beef Top Or Bottom Round Or Crisp ICEBERG « LETTUCE Head Prices in this ad good Wednesday, Jan. t thru Tuesday, January 7,1992.

But there are certain elements usually found in significant measure in persons of character. One is belief; and not Just belief in one's self. The men and women we most admire generally have strong convictions which influence their daily lives. Another is commitment . . . far beyond meE*«jBVolvement. Those who stir our admiration devote their time and talents unselfishly to worthwhile causes. And there's usually a third element; but It's never boasted of or paraded about. That's sacrifice. People of character are always willing _its to deny themselves something to achieve something greater. Nearby are plenty of "laboratories" where belief, commitment and sacrifice combine to produce character. They're called churches and synagogues. *>~n H“ -1 i "i m »i in r O b 1005.
