New building has support, opposition By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Ntw> SUIT Writer Most of the roughly 200 people who came out for the public meeting on school expansion last Thursday questioned the need for a separate building to house a middle school. Several speakers said that alternatives such as expanding the elementary school and using modular classrooms to take care of a “temporary spike” in enrollment hadn’t been explored enough. Some suggested that the county not get involved in building a middle school without going to the voters with a referendum. School Board Chairman Beverly Massie opened the meeting by thanking people for coming out and saying eveprone would have an opportunity to speak. “Nothing is engraved in stone,” she said. “In the past we waited until push comes to shove to get the things we needed,” she said. “We waited from 1975 until the end of the ’80s to get the expansion here at the high school that was needed for a long time. The population figures have dwindled in the school system; now they are on the rise again. It’s not something that needs to be done tomorrow, but we need to plan for the future.” School Superintendent David Gangel presented the data the expansion committee used in its study, including information on the cost of providing vocational education at Piedmont Technical School and preliminary cost estimates of providing vocational education locally. - He had added information on the number of regular classrooms that have been converted to other use since 1977, effectively reducing the capacity of the elementary school that once held over 800 students and now is approaching capacity at about 620. Four classrooms are used for kindergarten, which was added in 1977. One classroom is used for vocal music and art and will be converted to a regular classroom before expansion. Another classroom is only used port time because the teacher teaches most of the day in the computer room. That will also be converted to regular classroom use before expansion. Sm NEW SCHOOL, p. A-6 Wilder outlines Draconian measures By JEFF NELSON Anindcl Newspaper* State Writer RICHMOND—Gov. L. Douglas Wilder proposes 9 percent cuts in all state agencies but also calls for new spending for education and child health care in his budget released Wednesday. The new budget calls for more than $350 million in, new spending for education, money that will be subject, however, to a possibly new form of distribution. Education Sec. James Dyke said the administration’s plan to deal with disparity in education funding will be unveiled Jan. 9 in Richmond. To make up for the new spending and to cover a budget shortfall of $1.1 billion, some agencies will be drastically cut. The Center for Innovative Technology, based in Loudoun County, faces a one year $13.7 million cut and may lose all state funding in 1994 subject to further study, according to the budget. The center had bean getting approximately $20 million a year in state funding. The new budget proposes one new tax and rescinds tax breaks the General Assembly put in place in earlier sessions. Gov. Wilder is proposing a new user fee for hospitals to cover $68 million of the estimated $300 million in new money for Medicaid payments. . Gov. Wilder plans to delay additional withholding allowances, corporate depreciation, a self employment credit and a low income housing credit. The initiatives are expected to raise $123 million in new revenue for the state. The tax breaks are planned to be reinstated in 1995, after the last fiscal year of the new biennial budget. That proposal runs counter to a initiative proposed by Lt. Gov. Donald Beyer that would cut taxes for businesses in order to spur the state’s sagging economy. The governor proposes to make up for this by adding new spending for housing and to establish a discretionary $5 million economic development fund to be used to attract business to Virginia. He also proposes to expand Virginia’s port facilities and to fund a commercial laser research project in Tidewater. The remaining budget cuts will hit the pockets of most state residents as well as local governments. This year, each agency will be Sm RICHMOND, p.A-6 Science Fair approaches Students at Rappahannock Elementary and Rappahannock High are busily getting their science projects ready for the Rappahannock Science Fair, which will be held Feb. 20-21. Students are investigating every imaginable topic. For example, Sherron Boddie is investigating the levels of radioactive radon in various types of houses. Jason Fox is pursuing his interest in wildlife by observing the effect a predatory threat has upon bird behavior. Amy Kellert is investigating how well ZIP codes speed mail on its way. Christian Phillips is determining whether certain metals protect iron from corrosion. Other projects investigate topics such as the effects of odors on psychic ability, paper airplane do* sign, ground cover and erosion, and using electricity to juice fruit. On Thursday, Feb. 19 students will put the results of their investigations on display in the RCES multi-purpose room. Lower grade levels are entering group projects. Students in grades 6-8 compete as individuals , within the Junior Division. Students from grades 9-12 enter the Senior Division competition. ' , Local winners will receive plaques, small awards and invitations to the Piedmont Regional Science Fair to be held in Charlottesville in March. Senior Division winners at Charlottesville continue on to the State Science Fair and possibly even to the International Science Fair. Across the country, science fairs provide opportunities for students to actually do science themselves, and to show off their achievements. Students begin by writing a background research paper. Then they plan and carry out an experiment, collect data, and interpret the results. The fair is the culmination, as students explain their projects to the judges and the general public. The 1991-92 Rappahannock Science Fair is jointly sponsored by the RCES ParentTeacher Organization, by the Gifted and Talented Program, and by the schools’ science departments. • * ? : The public is encouraged to visit the Rappahannock Science Fair from 3 p.m.-5 p.m. on < Feb. 19 or from 10 a. m.-noon on Feb. 20. , ■ f' - •.

Wood By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Jerry Wood, Rappahannock’s newly elected representative to the House of Delegates, came to the Board of Supervisors meeting Monday and left with a short wish list. Chairman Hubert Gilkey said the county was most concerned that the county’s new index for school ftmding would cost the county about $200,000 in reduced aid from the state for education. He also questioned the state’s $17,500 fee for an application for approval of a new cell for the landfill. Finally he said the compensation board had said the state would no longer pick up any office expenses for constitutional officers and that would cost the' county an additional $224,000. “I understand everybody’s trying to cut, but we have to raise taxes to fund these things,” Mr. Gilkey said. uI’m not sure what we can do,” Del. Wood said. UI hope you’ll jump in with a leave boot Mr. Gilkey had taken a any tax inhut he prek increases ay. He said he had signed up to supports bill to allow local referendums on imposing impact fees. "We have to be careful that the funds don’t end up in the general budget for operating binds but are protected to support the infrastructure,” he said. County Administrator John McCarthy said he was particularly concerned that the higher fees charged by the Department of Waste Management for the landfill application did not include any guarantee that the department would act within any specified number of days to review the application. The supervisors also received: strange news from Commissioner of Revenue Beverly Atkins on the tax front. She told them the state said the county must impose taxes on machinery and tools and either merchants capital taxes or business licenses. She said the state had offered to send someone to the county to help set up the tax structure. The supervisors expressed concern that the cost of administering the program might equal the tax revenues it would generate. Hampton District representative Mike Massie said he wouldn’t want to enact taxes that would hurt the business community, but the taxes would have to cover the cost of administering the program. During the evening meeting the supervisors^also approved an ordinance to control vicious and destructive dogs. Several people spoke at the public hearing on the , new ordinance. Many of them esmplained about problems they have with uncontrolled dogs chasing livestock and bothering their own dogs. Some asked if the county couldn’t enact a leash law. Mr. Gilkey noted that Rappahannock is a rural county and that the citizens would not support a leash law. Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke said the county had had an ordinance in the past that could not be enforced because the enabling legislation had been changed. He said he received more complaints about dogs than any other county problem. During the afternoon session the supervisors went into executive session to discuss acquiring real estate. Following the executive session they voted to authorize Mr. McCarthy and Mr. Luke “to proceed with site investigation of certain properties for future educational and waste transfer purposes and to spend an amount not to exceed $2,600 on such investigation.” In other action the supervisors: • Elected Hubert Gilkey as chairman, Charles K. “Pete” Estes as vice chairman, Mike .Massie as representative to the Planning Commission and Ellis Bingham as representative to Planning District 9. • Voted to adopt the design by Stephen Wagner for the new county seal.

SM COURT DOCKET, p. A-5 Three hurt in head-on Three people were injured in a head-on accident near Fletcher’s Mill on U.S. 522 at 2:30 p.m. Jan: 2, according to Sgt. D.S. Adams of the State Police. Christopher Edward Gannon, 20, of Vienna, Va. was operating a 1985 Ford southbound about two-tenths of a mile north of Route 620 when he apparently came into the path of an oncoming 1989 Isuzu Trooper, operated by David Ashbury Rish, of Easley, S.C., said Sgt. Adams. Both drivers and a 15-year-old girl in the Gannon vehicle were injured. Both vehicles were destroyed. Sources said both of those injured in the Gannon vehicle were taken by Fairfax Air One helicopter to Fairfax Hospital.

In other police and court news this week: • An elementary school student apparently brought a handgun aboard a Rappahannock Public Schools bus before Christmas, according to Superintendent David Gangel. Officials found out about it after the fact, said Dr. Gangel. He said the gun was apparently not loaded, but the matter has been handed over to the Rappahannock Sheriffs Office. The School Board, said Dr. Gangel, has already addressed the matter. “We deal very harshly with that kind of situation,” said the superintendent. “We take it very seriously.” The gun, believed to be of small caliber, was apparently seen by some of the other students on the bus. Dr. Gangel said, “To the best of oiir knowledge, this was not done in malice in any way.” • A Sperryville woman was injured in an auto accident on U.S. 211 at 8:15 a.m. Jan. 2, 200 feet west of Route 622, according to Sgt.

Library asksfat^morefunding By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newi Staff Writer At Monday evening’s meeting of the Board of Supervisors William ¥oung, chairman of the Library Board, asked for an additional appropriation of $13,760 for the library. He said the Library Board had prepared its current budget without mowing what it would cost to operate in the larger new library. Hampton District representative . Mike Massie said he had decided that the county would have to contribute more to the library. He said fears ago the county only contrib Correction The Inn at Little Washington received Five Star ratings for both, its restaurant and its accomodations in the most recent Mobil Travel Guide, the second year The Inn has Achieved the unparalleled two Five Stars. A headline last week incorrectly stated The Inn was given Four Star ratings. uted a few hundred dollars to the library and contributed nothing for fire and rescue operations. Now the county is contributing about $100,000 to the fire and rescue association, he said. “The use of the library is going up, and we have to recognize that,” he said. “I thought the new library would save money. I thought when we built our dog pound it would save money. I was wrong on both counts.” Stonewall-Hawthom representative Robert Anderson said, "I have problems with the way money’s handled. I don’t see a record of where the money is spent. We’re spending the taxpayer’s money.” Dr. Young said, “When I first came on the board I felt it was us coming to you to ask you to do something for us. I don’t feel that way any more. It’s your library.” The supervisors appointed County Administrator John McCarthy to the Library Board last summer. He said he also had problems with the way the library’s money is spent. “It’s true the Library Board has put in a prodigious effort in getting the library built and managing it,” he said. “There was no way to predict the cost overruns.

Nothing that was done is illegal or immoral, but it is not an orderly procedure.

It limits my ability to resolve the problem.” He said that three different people write checks on the library’s account. “The librarian should spend the money. The process is important to me,” he said. “I’m responsible to so many people. I have to say I know where your tax dollar goes. The Library Board is more and more a part of the county; you have to become part of normal bookkeeping.” The supervisors said that Mr. McCarthy should get together with the Library Board members and return with a recommendation. Panthers take 4th in tourney Basketball team devastated by string of injuries By MARKSCOLFORO Rappahannock New* SUIT Writer The Rappahannock High varsity basketball team finished fourth among eight teams in the Northern Virginia Daily Christmas tournament last week, beating AA Courtland 51-48 in the opener before dropping the next two games. More importantly, according to Coach Gary Leake, the Panthers improved their defense, cut opponents’ scoring, increased their own shooting percentage arid reduced turnovers, all team goals for the tournament. In the Dec. 26 opener against Court land, the Panthers employed a balanced scoring attack and extreme pressure on defense, forcing Courtland to commit 31 turnovers. The j Panthers only turned the ball over 16 times. \ “This game A as far as I’m concerned, was textbook,” said Coach Leake. “The guys deserved their first win.” James Roy had 15 points to lead Rappahannock, followed by Jason Henry with 12, Michael Williams with 8 and Kevin Jolliffe with 8. Courtland’s leading scorer, Jamal Williams, had been averaging 14 points per game, but was held scoreless by the Panthers’ defense. The Court land win guaranteed the Panthers a fourth-place finish, and the Dec. 28 game against Warren County would have propelled Rappahannock into the championship game. But Warren County, defending tournament champs playing at home, won a one-sided contest, 76-44. The score was 12-8 in the first quarter before Rappahannock got in serious foul trouble. By halftime the score was 36-13 and the Panthers were no longer in it. Henry had 19 points and Williams 10 to lead Rappahannock. Playing two days later against Eastern Mennonite for third place, the Panthers had to contend with the opponent’s featured player, 6-10 senior center David Ellison. Getting most of the work defending him were Williams and Roy, and they held the big man to 18 points and 10 rebounds (five in the first quarter). The Panthers kept it close, but lost 53-49 to end up in fourth. Williams had 15, Henry and Roy each scored 13 and Jolliffe netted 8 points. Warren County repeated as champs, and AAA Centreville High took second in the eight-team tournament. For Rappahannock, Henry was named all-tournament with 44 total points. “1 felt that the tournament served its purpose,” said the coach. “I was glad to see James and Jason return to our offense. Michael has been our leader all season long,” he said, drawing double coverage from opporients that has freed Roy and Henry. In another game this week, the Panthers Went into overtime against Page in Luray before losing a close contest, 64-63. Henry had 23 points for Rappahannock, Williams 19, Damian Muriel 9 and Roy 8. ~ The lead changed hands about 20 times and the score was tied at the end of all four quarters. Rappahannock struggled late from a lack of players. Nine players dressed, two were injured early on and one fouled out.

Rappahannock Sports .8.a «-. --■■■■ am.i - Daniel Deal, who started at guard for Jolliffe, suffered a severely sprained ankle during the game. Deal’s sub, sophomore J.C. Welch, then went down with a chipped bone in his ankle, leaving Coach Leake with only six usable players late in the game, and two of them had four fouls each. Aggressive defense, which marked the team’s tournament play, suffered as a result of the injuries and foul trouble. Still, the Panthers were “a six-second breakdown on defense fthat] allowed them to score the winning basket” away from beating Page. Both Deal and J.C. Welch are expected to miss one-to-two weeks.

The Audit Bureau High noon in Richmond Like gunfighters facing each other from opposite ends ora dusty Western town, the Wilder Administration and the General Assembly’s majority party prepare this week to fight a no-win battle: the campaign to keep the state fiscally solvent. Budget reduction plans sent in by each state agency show that the cuts to make up an estimated $1.6 billion twb-year shortfall will hit the pockets of most state residents as well as local governments. ' f • The community college system will lose 85 people, including 30 teachers and will close programs in nursing, welding, and other classes. \ • The forestry service will layoff 15 people (for a total of 34 over two years) and will cut out fuel firewood services to the poor. • The state will cut half of its aid for video and film services to local libraries and will cut six percent from its overall funding to local libraries. • Funding to constitutional officers will be cut in the areas of equipment, direct funding, training, and mileage. Most cuts affect the local commonwealth’s attorney’s offices and will have to be made up by local governments, according to the State plan. • State labs will shut down, making farmers pay for feed and fertilizer testing and police agencies pay for film processing for crime scene and forensics photography. Gov. L. Douglas Wilder’s budget last year was sharply criticized for using one-time transfers from such areas as the lottery,' the literary fund and stock sales to make up a $2.1 billion shortfall, a plan he says he will not follow this year. Gov. Wilder said, at a November presentation to both House and Senate money committees, that he will not cut funding to local school districts, an area that lost more than $150 million last year and sparked a storm of protest. He has also stated repeatedly that he will not introduce any general tax increases in the budget, although a Richmond newspaper has quoted confidential sources in government about a planned administration proposal to' impose a user fee on hospitals to counter some of the estimated $300 million in new spending needed to cover Medicaid programs. The governor has also backed off on his statement that he would not present a plan to address disparity in education due to a suit filed by a coalition of poorer school districts in thq state. Education Sec. James Dyke said that plan will be released Thursday, Jan. 9 and will affect the distribution of education funds. The suit was dropped this week as result of promised action. r v I SEE EUGENE M«CARTHY IS RUNNING AGAINST OS THIS TEAR! Iyea.' nothing to WORRY ABOUT THERE RAPPAHANNOCK'S CONTRIBUTION TO PRESIDENTIAL POLITICS IN fflZ £*■i p t, _ Photo courtesy Miss Ruby Jenkins Rappahannock Heritage Townsfolk peruse the old Blue Ridge Guide on the porch of the old Washington Post Office circa 1917. j Letters to the Editor Wakefield coverage (cont'd) To the Editor: I have tried to restrain myself from writing this letter for several months. I can no longer. One of the sad events that took place in Rappahannock County last year was the upheaval and eventual division of Wakefield School at Huntly. Another was the Rappa- ( hannock News’ loss of its editor of five years, Lou Hatter. Unfortunately, the effect of the latter was magnified by the former. The still green-behind-the-ears News editor, lost no time, once the conflict at Wakefield became public, in smearing the dirt all over our family newspaper in Washington Post fashion. He was also quick to take a side editorially with those who would excise the Lynns from the highly accredited institution that they have chosen to devote their lives to building here. After the division into two schools took place, the News soothed its regrets (which obviously had different origins than mine) by running as much coverage as possible on. events and developments at the renegade Wakefield School at Marshall. We could not have news of events at Wakefield Country Day School of Rappahannock County without a companion article about WnkofiolH School rtf Pannnipr County. In at least one instance, the coverage on Wakefield-Fauquier was inserted into the middle of a story about Wakefield Country Day School. The name of the newspaper is RAPPAHANNOCK News. It is subtitled “Rappahannock County’s Family Newspaper since 1877.” I would suggest that the editor ponder this. In the 15 years that I have subscribed, it has never been the policy to give coverage to schools’ events except those located in Rappahannock County. If the Fauquier Times-Democrat chooses to cover events at Wakefield of Marshall, I think that is appropriate. For lack, however, of a policy of giving similar coverage to the many other schools outside the county that are attended by Rappahannock resident students or that employ Rappahannock residents as faculty or staff, this coverage of a Fauquier school is obviously intended to irritate wounds rather than heal them. Like any other person or institution that chooses to leave our midst, we should simply wish them well, and then get on with our lives. If the News chooses to run a small piece (as it frequently has dope) on honors received by a local student who is studying elsewhere, great! I don’t, however, see lengthy stories about events at Highland School or Fauquier High School. Jan. 2, however, we have 22 column inches devoted to Wakefield, Fauquier with a mention of only one Rappahannock-resident student. Who are we kidding? I think that the editor needs to learn that Wakefield Country Day School is a Rappahannock institution. It is indeed one of the jewels in the crown that is Rappahannock County. The goals and accomplishments of the Lynns who founded it wnd the school they founded rep resent some of the finest of stuff that we have here. To put this into context, let me say that none of my children ever attended Wakefield. Also, although the Lynns are nearby neighbors, I have never really felt particularly close to either Pamela or her late husband Bill. Somehow, though, I have always felt that they were my friends. I expect that many others share similar feelings. To close, let me say that unless petty journalism is put aside, I do not intend to renew my subscription when it expires. It is shameful to see the Rappahannock News as a traitor to its Rappahannock families. CHARLESJ. ELDRED Washington, Va. tmergency help thanks To the Editor: I, Ann Spieker, an EMS cardiac tech on Washington’s Medic Unit, would like to thank all the people who helped out at the accident on U.S. 522 near Sperryville on Jan. 2. The other rescue units were a welcome sight: Sperryville, Castleton and Amissville. Fire company of Sperryville, I thank you for your quick arrival and assistance with patients before the other rescue units arrived, the assistance in removing patients from the cars and in landing the helicopter. The people who get the most praise are those of you who stopped by the scene and helped. Especially, the people who were staying with the young man who had the multiple fractures on his legs. It must have seemed like an eternity while the other two patients who were in more critical condition were being attended to. Things were tricky getting all patients out of the cars. When you bystanders were asked to help, it was relieving to see you come running to help. Yet you handled the patients with care and helped us get the job done. I do not know who most of you were that were helping, so I can not give you a personal thank you. I thank you. ANN SPIEKER Beauty is in the eye To the Editor “One man’s trash ... Is another man’s treasure.” Whether a person rummages through “trash” or not, the maxim is still true. Your article last week in the News touched a responsive chord. I have been a scavenger all my life. I eiyoy it. It has made me the proud owner of one of the finest old-time record collections extant, and I began by visiting the local dump several times a week toting home rare 78s of A1 Jolson, Eddie Cantor, Kate Smith, the Carter Family, Jimmifc Rodgers, etc. Only trash someone1 threw away. In this modem day many places have deemed this an illegal act. Well, to this old scavenger, an ill-eagle is just a sick bird. I betcha anybody who spies a twenty dollar bill in a dumpster would be right in there after it. . . .And few people would say him “nay.” Did it ever occur to the powers that be that an old A1 Jolson record would be an equal to that twenty dollar bill... or an old iron or telephone? (Or even more to the right finder?) So let him have it! What’s the big deal? Why illegal? to collect the fine, of course! Authorities may tell you it is for sanitation and safety. Now, what makes me think they are more interested' in your money than your health? There’s no fine to collect if it is legal. (Some say I’m paranoid. Perhaps so, but . . . ain’t I right?) Tell you what . . . Nowadays a good modem dump is equipped with separate bins for plastic, bottles (both colored and white), aluminum, etc. How about a special recepticle for “re-usables” free to those who wish? Good ideas? You bet! But then there’s no fine to collect so don’t expect it to happen. C’mon people, lighten up! Here’s another maxim for you: “Live and let live.” In the words of the great Mark Twain, “Nothing needs reforming so much as somebody else’s habits.” Happy hunting, scavengers. Take away what you will. May our right to do so never be taken away! (P.S. I scavenged this typewriter.) DICK PIERSON Amissville Reading into the numbers To the Editor: Your recent description of the in-t formation on file at the office of Planning District 9 (“The numbers tell story of a changing county”) was a treasure chest of facts—providing^ not surprises so much as confirmation in figures of what we already knew or suspected. Let me explore one comer: per capita income and per capita sales taxes. You state that in 1989 Rappahannock’s average (i.e. per capita) income was $17,648—second highest among the five counties of the district even though only about threefourths as high as the leader, Fauquier. Evidently Rappahannock's per capita income ranks at least moderately well among other counties of the state. This is important because, as your readers will know, per capita income is one of the nuyor parameters (along with assessed value of real estate) in the formula determining state aid to school districts despite the fact that per capita income has no direct influence on county revenue. Sales taxes, on the other hand, are no part of the formula but do provide some revenue to the county as 1.0 out of the 4.5 percent sales tax is sent by Richmond back to the county where it was collected. Now if there were $42 billion in taxable sales in Virginia in 1990 as you say, that is about $7,000 in taxable sales for each of the roughly six a ■million Virginia residents, or about n, $70 per person to be sent back from Richmond to the “average” county, if such there be. If Rappahannock were “average” in this respect, about $462,000 would have come from Richmond(~tq the office of Frances Foster, our good treasurer. Actually, as you report, Rappa hannock’s merchants, innkeepers and other “dealers” achieved $15.5 million in taxable sales, so that pre^ sumably only $155,000 was sent back* to our county, about $24 per resi-« dent. Note that this is $307,000 less! and barely one-third of what woul(£ have come if Rappahannock were* “average” in this respect. Why, thatj is enough to cover the debt servica on a middle school, to pick an exam-! pie that comes to mind. J What to do? We could patroniz^ our local merchants as much as pos-* sible, and encourage our non-resi-. dent friends to come to the county tcS buy furniture and apples, and havtf breakfast at bed and breakfasts. But; we are doing that already. • How about asking our represen! tatives in Richmond, who all prom-J ised to help constituents in th^ recent campaign, to get the formula changed so state school aid per pupif is a function of each county’s sales tax revenue rather than its per capita income? Then the amount of state financial help for local schools would have some relationship with the ability of each county to fund the remaining costs. I If, however, the Virginia govern* ment can’t change the formulaj maybe it should draw the logical con* elusion from that formula and sendH part of what it collects through personal income tax back to the county of the taxpayer. THEODORE A. CHAPMAtf Washington, Va.i Praise for i Piedmont To the Editor: 1 On Jan. 2, I attended a School Board meeting where plans were in-! troduced for a vocational prograrri here in the county. ; 1 am a 1981 graduate of Rappa* hannock High School and Piedmont Technical Education Center. Thi two years of training I received iij office services was exceptional, ij, enabled me to find work within the county. Office services is one of many courses being excluded front the proposed plans. j In 1981 Piedmont offered 1£ courses. Twenty-three senior class members were enrolled in 12 6i these courses. Seventeen of thosfe graduates are living in the county tc|day. At least seven work here. Piedmont is an excellent edufelitional opportunity and investment!. The 90-minute bus ride to and frorfi Culpeper was a topic of discussior}. Forty-five minutes of that time served as our lunch break. That bus ride is rewarded with great facilities, dedicated teachers and top-ofthe-line equipment. 1 Piedmont is funded by Culpeper, Madison, and Orange, as well sis Rappahannock. My vocational trailing was expensive. I have been |a registered voter and taxpayer for 1|0 years now. I’ve paid the county back. I’m one of several who have, f It was stated this new prografr would save tax dollars. It doesn’t bfgin to offer the quality or variety of training I received. My tax dollars are well spent at Piedmont. I ask that vocational education remain there. ; The figures presented don’t save much when you consider how many opportunities are being thrown away. | MISTY L. HOT WoodviQe

In a Jan. 3 game against Page (Jkmnty, Rappahannock had too ipany turnovers and not enough rebounds to keep it competitive, losing 63-40. > Lambert, the JVs’ leading rellounder, grabbed nine boards and Scored nine points for Rappahannock. Atkins led in scoring with 11, fettle had 9 and Jordan 8. “What I feel is hurting us is our defense,” said Coach Corder. “We 4an score whenever we want, we just can’t stop them.” | Adding to the JVs problems was jhe promotion this week of three team members to the varsity, which ms been decimated by injuries and other problems. Hunter Foster, Jordan and Brown are all on the varsity squad now. “These guys are not just bench fillers,” said varsity Coach Leake. “I expect them to contribute.” _ The JVs record is not 0-4 in the district, 1-5 overall. Statistical leaders include Atkins, with 7.8 points per game; Settle, with 8.2; Jordan, with 7.7; and Lambert, with 6.8. Settle is shooting 58 percent from the floor. Junior Panthers open competition The eighth-grade-and-under basketball team, the Junior Panthers, opened their season against Page Jan. 3, losing in overtime, 42-40.

Volleyball team drops close match The Rappahannock varsity volleyball team dropped its record to a still-strong 6-2 by losing to Stonewall Jackson-Mount Jackson Jan. 6, 12-15,15-17. Coach Paul Paratore said that despite “some of the best practices we’ve ever had” over Christmas vacation while the schedule was idle, the team “wasn’t in the game mentally.” The JV team lost as well, 15-8, 11-15, 6-15. Coach Paratore said the JVs have been showing steady improvement. Court Docket Continued from page A-2 Kevin F. Fetherstonhaugh, 67/55, $36/24. James Patrick Foresman, defective equipment, $20/24.

Horne has delayed for about six months a hearing on the status of several loans in dispute following the breakup of Wakefield School in Marshall and Wakefield Country Day School in Huntly. The judge granted a motion by Wakefield School of Marshall to continue the case because, he wrote, “A number of issues remain to be addressed in this case. Preliminary motions need to be disposed of prior to trial. The Court does not believe this case can be bifurcated. While there is a suggested urgency to hearing the matter of the Farmers & Merchants loan, it would appear that any such hearing might affect collateral findings which may be binding upon the parties....A hearing in this case scheduled in six months would seem to satisfy the need for hearing preliminary motions, completion of discovery, .and proper preparation for trial.” Whirlpool Dryer * |A Model LE5800XSW Electric \A/1 • lorge Capacity • 6 Drying Cycles • Gentle Heat System • FINISH GUARD'*’ Control • Automatic DRY-MISER* Control •‘"Infinite''Temp.

New School Continued from page A-1 Several classrooms have been divided into two spaces. They are used for special education and remedial reading and math. There are four additional special education classes and three additional remedial classes taught in such divided classrooms. In all 10 and a half classrooms hold programs that were not offered when the school had over 800 students, he said. These include three modular classrooms located in the back of the building. Dr. Gangel also supplied estimates of the cost of a middle school building. At 100 square feet per student for 500 students and a cost of $60 per square foot, the building would cost $3 million, he said. If the county paid for the building by selling bonds through the Virginia Public School Authority at the current rate of 6.14 percent, the first yearly payment would be $289,000, with the amount declining over the 20-year life of the bond. At the current tax rate, that would add about 7.2 cents to the tax rate, a 9.4 percent increase, he said. “We have to take care of the students, but the taxpayers are our customers too,” he said. “We need to find a solution everyone can live with.” E.P. Luke, the first speaker from the public, said he was speaking on behalf of several people from the Sperryville and Woodville areas. Many are retired or unemployed, he said. He added that when he sat on the reassessment board, many people came who complained about taxes. “Real worsened economic conditions exist,” Col. Luke said. “The timing is bad. The citizens of Rappahannock do support education. I cannot think of a time they have not. The discussion of a middle school has hit a sensitive nerve. People are up in arms. People are not convinced a new separate building is needed." Tony Dunagan, who teaches electrical construction at Piedmont Tech, questioned the figures on Piedmont and asked Dr. Gangel if he was familiar with the work Piedmont does to prevent dropouts. Dr. Gangel replied that most of the information came from Piedmont. He added that using Piedmont is very expensive and making vocational programs available locally would make them options for academic students who can’t afford the time involved in the Piedmont bus trip. Lee Bird congratulated the committee on the work done and added, “It’s important to do advance planning. We shouldn’t wait until the last minute when the expense is greater.” He noted that attending Piedmont takes an hour and half out of the school day for throe who attend and added a local vocational center would be a “lasting asset.” He urged the county officials to at least buy land for the middle school now. “We should get in on the ground floor so we’re not caught short later on,” he said. “Over and above that, education is something we shouldn’t spare the horses on. We must make sure the younger generation is prepared to take its role with adequate training for college or work,” he added. William Young also supported the committee report saying, “In an increasingly complex technical world we will have to pay increased costs to educate children. I hope the county will support the programs that seem in the best interests of the school system and move on." Werner Krebser also supported the committee recommendation, noting that one reason for the increased enrollment is that women 35 to 45 years old are now having children. He noted that the state of Oregon requires that all high schools provide both academic and vocational education. He said that inflation can be expected to increase in the next several years. “At least buy the land,” he said. Greg Robertson, elementaiy PTO president, who also served on the expansion committee, noted that the statistics don’t show the reality. He said in the divided classrooms ‘children are sitting on top of each other.” He noted that sometimes closet space is used for testing and tutoring. Newbill Miller said he questioned the estimate that the school population will continue to increase at the rate of one and a half percent per /ear. “Projected populations are never accurate,” he said. He said the committee did not have the advice of ‘an expert on facilities use.” He said that the cost of the building is “only the tip of the cost of another school.” He said the middle school would also cost more for heat, electricity, insurance, administrators, and duplicating a gym and cafeteria. He urged the county government not to proceed with planning a middle school without going to the voters in a referendum. “There are a group of people who are violently op 1992 GE9 TRACKER THE FRUGAL 4X41‘' #T2075 513424 -496 Country Savings 12,925 _ycQ Chevrolet Your Price *12,178 Cash Back 1992 CAVALIER VL COUPE ‘BETTER THAN EVER FOR '92!‘ #2068 *10,916 -390 10,526 -900 Your Price $9626 Country Savings Chevrolet Cash Back ; 1992 S-10 : pickup a With Tahoe Value Package #T2063 £ Your Price S11,463 -771 Country -' ' 1 Savings 10,692 -1 non Chevrolet 1 'UUU Cash Back *9692 1992 GEO METRO "Number One In Fuel Economy #2033 s9,020 -428 8.592 -750 Your Price $ 7 842 Country Savings Chevrolet Cash Back 1988 Lincoln Signature Continental Loaded, leather roof *10,500 1986 Plymouth Reliant AutO.

Jposed,” he said. “Their blood presI sure is raised,” he added. “If it goes to referrendum and passes they | can’t say anything.” Allen Stokes also questioned the projection. He presented a chart that showed that if school population had been grqpring at one and a hall percent a year, the county would now have over 1,400 students in school. He said the recent enrollment increase is a “fluke with the overall trend way down. If we built a school every time there is a fluke, we would have built four schools,” he said. “Something is wrong with the projection.” Lucia Kilby said her family has always supported education. “Farm income is not what it used to be, and taxes are going up,” she said. “I would love to see* new school tomorrow, but the time is not right. We might not be able to pay for it. The majority of our people are not high income,” she added. Jimmy Swindler said the committee had not studied the alternatives enough. He also questioned having a-£ vocational center locally and added£ that among his friends who had at-^ tended Piedmont, “the bus ride was-*; the highlight of the day.” ^ Frank Warner said he would” want to see a cost-benefit analysis. ** “I would like to see all the options ^ laid out with their consequences,” he^ said. He added that the county” might purchase land and then find”' that “some hummingbird, or snail” darter or hoot owl was living there ? can you can’t do anything with it.” X John Marocchi said that the local-t per-pupil cost for education hadT doubled between 1980 and 1990 in,, addition to the increased cost of in-!* flat ion. “In 1980 we were a little be-"* low the state average, and in 1990”* we were a little above the state av-T erage,” he said. “We have gotten” something for it, but we haven’t got-”; ten double.” ■*» He also suggested the school sys-” tern “take another look at the alter-”' natives” Richmond Continued from page A-1 asked to cut 9 percent from its budget, a cut that most state agencies say will affect services to state residents. The cuts will have far ranging ef-" fects from raising tuition at colleges by 9 to 15 percent, to closing state commissions and buildings. Local libraries will face a loss of $10.3 million in state funding. Virginia Tech’s vaunted Cooperative Extension Service will lose $12 million. Grants to the arts will be severely restricted or eliminated altogether. The Commission on Local Government will be absorbed into the Department of Housing. The budget also proposes closing an Agriculture Department laboratory in Warrenton, suspending state payments for gypsy moth spraying, closing the Northern Virginia regional consumer affairs of :x ro FAT CATTLE I .Every Month ,JUler sales on the nd Tuesday erf each month, we will ave a State Graded Feeder Cattle Sale -Consignments Welcome.

I have asked the paper to put a different photo of me into this - issue. Not because it shows the new cut but because I did not like the old one. This one makes me look like Walter Brennan. I guess when you get old and craggy (ugly?) you start looking like people that are old and ugly. Just change hats and be somebody else. Some wise person at the Cafe commented on my haircut. “What is the difference between a good and bad haircut?” Answer “About two weeks.” I will settle for that. Which brings to mind the town Cafe, where everyone looks in after a Post Office call, wise ones gather and I have become famous. I am getting requests. Where I had originally planned to announce my annual predictions for the New Year we will have a list of requests and my reactions to them; besides, I don’t get paid enough to make predictions. About predictions I missed last year, local Aileen stock went from 2V4 to 20.1 bought at 6Vi ' and choked, sold at 6Vi. 1. Why don’t you—Research and report on those people in high places, including the Board of Assessors, who have obtained reductions on their tax appraisals? Answer No thank you. It sounds like too much work. When this column gets to be work, I quit. And will not miss the money. There is also the potential of having my tires slashed. 2. Why don’t you—Discuss why women are like that (and all alike)? Answer. Sounds like fun. A conditional maybe. This also« might lead to tire slashing, especially if it is done right, but well wprth it. It has been my experience that activity involving SDay By Day women always seems worth it in advance. Right back where this began: “WJiy are they like that?” 3. Why don’t you—Discuss the phenomena “that as Rappahannock goes, so goes the nation?” or “Why the daily operations of government work perfectly if the elected officials stay of out town?” As an old farmer said, “We gotta elect more people that keeps their noses outta our business!” Answer: I’m thinking. I’m thinking. 4. Why don’t you—Report on why the sheriff’s department doesn’t give more citations for littering? No thanks. I do not poke fun at law enforcement folks. I am ;? reminded of an interview last Sunday of Molly Ivens, a Texas reporter, her comment that a newly discovered statistic revealed that more people had , been killed by handguns than by auto accidents. Since they refuse to change gun laws, the only corrective action available was to raise the speed limits. I expect eventually to hear from a critic on my statistical accuracy. The only thing I expect of my stuff is that it be readable, accuracy is by accident Old government maxim: ? Anything not worth doing is not worth doing well Keep those cards and letters coming! Rare Finds, rare bargains Washington shop opens for business By LISA G. CURRIE Rappahannock News Staff Writer Rappahannnock County is known for speciality shops and antique dealers. Eve Willis and her staff have added a rare and interesting touch to the idea. Rare Finds, located next to the Post Office and Country Cafe in Washington, is Mrs. Willis’s first retail shop. A Washington resident, Mrs. Willis has been in business for over 20 years—the interior design business. From Chapel Hill to Holland to the Hudson Valley, Mrs. Willis coordinated homes from supplies kept in the trunk of her car. When it came time for the shop, she knew what she wanted. “Something quietly elegant with a look for everyone,” she said with a wave of her hand. More than anything, she wanted to keep the shop small and personal. What she wanted was what she got. It’s a shop filled with items of many dimensions whether the customer is looking for something for as little as $5 or something as expensive as a several hundred dollars. Entering names and ideas on the gift register is a unique addition to the shop. Those searching, those desiring, those buying can enter their names and items which interest them in the guest register kept by Susan McCarthy, the store clerk. The list is always available for the shopper when birthdays, holidays, anniversaries or just special days arrive. For anyone entering, there is something to attract the eye. “It’s new things and old things,” Mrs. Willis said sitting with gracious ease at a small reception desk just inside the door of the completely renovated house. She and her husband, Stewart, have owned the grey house for years, using it as rental property. Last summer, the couple decided to renovate the space, turning the downstairs area into a shop. Calling upon Mrs. McCarthy, a longtime friend who expressed interest in such a shop, Mrs. Willis and her staff opened in October. r CCLC auctions donated house A cedar-sided modular home now in Harris Hollow has been donated to the Child Care and Learning Center in Washington, Va. to be auctioned off. Proceeds from the auction will pay off the last $13,000 of the mortgage taken out by CCLC to build its pavilion. The 832-square-foot house was signed over to CCLC by its previous owners, Richard C. and Katherine Bull, in December. The structure has two bedrooms, a bath, kitchen, living area, deck and screened-in porch. It is only a few years old. Tours of the house (and information about the sealed bidding process) are available fay calling CCLC Director Rose Ann Shalrp at 703-675-3237. Limited financing is available, and during the bid openingth^re will be two companies on hand that will offer to move the house. Mrs. Sharp said moving will cost approximately $6,000. The Bulls, of Washington, D.C., are building a new home on the property, said Mrs. Sharp. “The (CCLC) board saw it as an opportunity for someone to have a dream house,” said Mrs. Sharp. After the auction, CCLC will hold a mortgage burning party to honor donors to the pavilion as well as all former and present CCLC board members on Feb. 14 at a site yet to be determined. “It was the House Tour weekend,” said Mrs. Willis said. Since then, the door has been opened by a steady stream of customers. And, while many of the first visitors were weekend guests or customers from Northern Virginia, Mrs. Willis wants the local residents to remember her shop for “wedding gifts or just for a special thought for someone." Rare Finds has flexible hours—it’s usually open during business hours several days a week though by appointment, if necessary. Mrs. Willis or one of her employees, Cheryl Petot, will oblige. The shop is three rooms—filled with variety, era and style. Decorated in a style somewhere between Georgian and Williamsburg, the walls in their deep shades of red and blue accent the potpourri of items inside. There is new china and old, museum quality and kitchen quality. There are Oriental rugs ranging in price from $30 to thousands of dollars. There are lamps and children’s items and candle holders and European and American antiques and jewelery and jams and preserves and baskets and walking sticks and wall hangings and many more items, arranged with style and taste. “It’s been so fun,” Mrs. Willis said, adjusting an item on display, “like open house without the cooking.” “I’ve never given it a second thought,” she said with pride, glancing around the shop. “This is so fun and so much more fun than driving,” she laughed. “This has been learning on the job,” she said of her shop, adding that she hopes to add what people request and things she finds along the way. A future addition would be a grandmother’s corner and other unique items, though Mrs. Willis said it will be at least one year before the fabric and wallpaper samples arrive. “I want to dedicate all my energies to this, first,” she said, adding if design assistance is needed the shop is available. “Our customers are our best teachers,” she said with a smile, adding through them, she hopes to learn. Wakefield CDS student earns merit honors Headmistress Pamela W. Lynn of Wakefield Country Day School in Huntly announced that senior Kathleen O’Neill has been selected by the National Merit Scholarship board as a Hispanic National Merit Semifinalist. Miss O’Neill, whose mother is a native of Costa Rica, has been a student of the school at the Huntly site for all 13 of her school years and credits William Lynn, founder and headmaster at the school for 16 years, for her academic success. “He used to go around the room in sixth grade and pat each one of us on the head saying 'You’ll be a National Merit Student and you will and you will’? He was so encouraging that none of us wanted to let him down. Mr. Lynn was, without a doubt, the most inspirational teacher I have ever had." With his urging, Kathleen has added five years of French, four years of Latin and two years of Homeric Greek to the Spanish she learned as a child, maintaining a fluency in each of the modern languages. Kathleen hopes that her college education will help her learn to use this facility with language to help others as she feels she has been helped. Winners of the award will be in the spring. / "1

Jennifer Torneden Torneden ranks among state's top NASTAR (National Standard Race) has awarded a Flint Hill resident fourth place among Virginia’s 16-18 year old skiers. Jennifer Torneden received the ranking because of her outstanding ski racing performance during the 1990-91 ski season, according to NASTAR Commissioner Bob Beattie. Skiing at Blue Knob Ski Area, PA, Torneden posted a personal season-best handicap of 31. A handicap is the percentage difference between a skier’s race time and that of the fastest NASTAR racer in the country, U.S. Ski Team member Nate Bryan. Torneden’s handicap means she raced within 31 percent of Bryan. “Jennifer has already proven to be one of the best young skiers in the state,” said Dennis Agee, U.S. Skiing’s Alpine Program Director. “Coca-Cola Jr. NASTAR exposes young skiers to the thrill of racing, and may very well be shaping the future of American ski racing,” he added. Coca-Cola Jr. NASTAR ranks the top 10 boys and girls in six age categories in all 50 states. The topranked skiers are listed on special rankings posters, and receive a state leader patch, and a certificate of achievement. First place winners also win a pair of I SKI sunglasses. NASTAR is the world’s largest recreational ski racing program. Jennifer is the daughter of Karen Rodgers of Flint Hill. It's a girl! Wanda Fuller and Jarvis Fletcher of Sperryville announce the birth of their daughter, Christina Marie Fletcher, bom Dec. 20 at Warren Memorial Hospital.
