'Arts as a part of daily life' By MARK SCOLFORO Rappahannock Nm Staff Writer In any community, artists help determine the character and fabric of their society, and Rappahannock is no exception. Washington musician Paul Reisler, perfomer, recording artist and musical director of Trapezoid, believes strongly in taking a proactive approach to promoting the arts in his own back yard. Mr. Reisler is being featured in “The Composer,” the second installment of the four-part “Exchange” series put on by Ki Theatre and supported by a $3,000 grant from the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities and Public Policy. Along with Trapezoid musicians Bob Read, Martha Sandefer and Cecil Hooker (this will be Mr. Hooker’s first live performance with the band), Mr. Reisler will perform a short set of his own music and then conduct a dialogue with the audience about his music and how the community influences his creative process (and vice-versa). Independent art curator and writer John Beardsley ,e£Amissville will serve. the moderator. ‘ * “My music is very much inspired by the land and the people around here," said Mr. Reisler during an interview this week. A walk in the woods or a drive in the country may awaken, his muse (as happened when he chaneed upon a baby turkey vulture in Gid Brown Hollow, the inspiration for the song “Hawk”), or a friend might Paul Reisler featured in Ki's Exchange series serve as the basis for a character in his lyrics. Mr. Reisler said he draws on concrete places and actual people for most of his material, as happened recently during a collaboration with musician John McCutcheon. He needed an actual person to start off a song about a calf getting stuck in a fence, and the name of the Rappahannock County sheriff came to mind. The song begins, “John Henry’s on the phone just now...” “Any song or any piece is actually a combination of lots of things together,” he ,t saiA, byt m«»st of those “things"- are real. ^ - In that feense, the people and land of Rappahannock weave their way into the patterns of his music. 'Another example: Recently Mr. Reisler composed the theme music for a 13-part PBS series about rural America, and he titled it “Rappahannock.” Sm PAUL REISLER, p. A-8 uuu. Student drugsiise mirrors nation's By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer Rappahannock students are as likely as students nationwide to use alcohol and illegal drugs. At Tuesday’s School Board meeting the school administration released the results of a survey of students in 6th through 12th grades that was given to Rappahannock students this past Dec. 17, comparing the results with a national survey given Aug. 29. Rappahannock seniors have used drugs more than the national sample for 10 of the 11 categories surveyed. 53.7 percent of Rappahannock high school seniors have used cigarettes compared to 38.1 nationally; 64.8 percent have used beer compared to 64.3 percent nationally; 61.1 percent have used liquor compared to 58.5 percent nationally; 28.3 percent have used marijuana compared to 21.7 percent nationally; and 9.3 percent have used cocaine compared to 4.4 percent nationally. For uppers the figures are 13 percent and 8.6 percent, and for downers they are 9.3 percent and 4.9 percent. Also, 9.3 percent have used inhalants compared to 4.5 percent nationally. For hallucinogens the figures are 16.7 percent and 6.3 percent and for other drugs they are 19.2 percent and 5.6 percent nationally. Only in using wine coolers do Rappahannock 12th graders rank below the national sample: 55.6 percent have used wine coolers compared to 62.5 percent nationally. Rappahannock 8th graders rank below the national sample in all 11 categories of drugs: 27.3 percent have used cigarettes compared to 29.1 percent nationally; 37.9 percent have used beer compared to 38.6 percent nationally; 36.4 percent have used wane coolers compared to .‘18.9 percent nationally; 20 percent have used liquor compared to 28.1 percent nationally; 1.5 percent have used marijuana compared to 7.1 percent nationally; and none of the 8th graders report using cocaine, dow'ners, inhalants, or hallucinogens compared to 1.8 percent, 2.8 percent, 5.1 percent, and 2.1 percent in the national figures.

A-8 Bill permits landowners historic veto By JEFF NELSON ArC'otit Nm^m auto Write RICHMOND—The Senate on Tuesday approved a bill that would allow landowners to veto at least two existing historic districts and vote to halt the creation of any new historic districts affecting their land. The measure succeeded easily, 32-8. A Senate committee had passed the bill Monday. * » Debate on the issue has been heated as property owners in historic districts claim their rights are abused when the Btate creates the districts. The historic designation, proponents say, frightens away developers because of the threat of new regulation. Opponents of the bill say the districts carry no regulatory burden; only the federal and local governments can restrict development in existing or potential historic districts. Virginia’s historic districts, according to preservation attorney George Freeman Jr., are merely recommendations by the state that an area has historic value. That recommendation, Freeman said, can be accepted or rejected by the federal andlocal governments, , The bill was originated fly Sen. Charles Colgan, DPrince William, who sponsored the legislation on behalf of landowners in the Bristow Station historic district in Prince William. Del. Jerry Wood, D-Rappahannock, co-sponsored a similar measure on the House side on behalf of landowners in the Brandy Station district. Only landowners in those two existing districts would be eligible to vote to abolish the districts under an amendment passed by the Senate committee Feb. 10. Any new historic districts in the state would have to have the approval of a majority of affected landowners under the bill, however. Most of the Brandy Station district is in Culpeper County across the Rappahannock River from Fauquier County. A small portion is in Del. Wood's district in Fauquier. Del. Wood couldn’t be reached for comment Tuesday afternoon. “This is a property rights bill,” said Sen. Frank Nolen, D-New Hope, the Senate committee chairman who pushed the Senate bill through. “We’re sending a message that they [the Virginia Board of Historic Resources] need to be more careful [when they designate historic districts] and they need not take such a broad swipe when they do it.” 8m RICHMOND, p.

Heart chapter campaign starts By BOB SCOTT Ravpahaniwch Ntw« Contributing Writer It was Super Bowl Sunday minus four and the Rappahannock County Unit of the American Heart Association team won the toss. They were ready to kick-off on Wednesday evening Jan. 22 at the Flint Hill Fire Hall. The major annual event drew a big crowd of firedup American Heart Association (AHA) team captains, coaches, contributors and fans, including proven veterans from previous campaigns. The AHA team had recruited eight captains all led by “Coach” Candace Lamma, who was confident that our local team would win by a healthy soon. So, enough of that stuff, although winning the Super Bowl did do our hearts a lot of good. But the continued health of all of our hearts, throughout the rest of our lives, is serious business and at least as important as the Redskins record. The local AHA unit has started its 1992 residential door-to-door campaign with Candace Lamma in charge, supported by co-captains Cheryl Alexander, Lillian Aylor, Liz Blubaugh, Ellie Clark, Maybelle Gilkey, Sally Thornhill and Peggy Woodward. They have recruited over 75 volunteers, your neighbors and friends, who will b# adding for your generous donatioig§. for this worthy cause. What you give comes back to you and to millions of others who suffer from cardiovascular diseases like heart attacks, strokes and high Mood pressure. The American Heart Assocation keeps on fighting for your life, so please welcome the \ AHA representatives when they come to your door. The Rappahannock Unit president, Paul Nichols, introduced the guest speaker, Kenny Pullen, from the Virginia Department of Health, who gave an interesting up-to-date presentation on the vital subject of CPR. Ann Miller covered the AHA educational programs currently active in our county schools. Special thanks were given to Helen Smith and Maybelle Gilkey for coordinating an excellent dinner contributed by the members of the Unit Board of Directors. Our special appreciation to all the good-hearted neighbors and friends who contribute their time, energy and good will donations so generously to this year’s fundraising drive.

Wainwright not guilty of arson Gary Steven Wainwright, 36, of Warrenton, was found not guilty of the arson of the Old Hollow Grocery by Judge W. Shore Robertson during a one-day trial in Rappahannock Circuit Court Feb. 6. Mr. Wainwright is the former owner of the now-closed grocery in Sperryville. Deputy Connie Compton discovered the building on fire the night of Aug. 22, 1990. She testfied having seen Mr. Wainwright’s vehicle behind the store minutes before making a U-turn on U.S. 211 and discovering the building aflame. Testimony during the trial was that the state forensics lab did not find evidence of petroleum products such as gasoline or kerosene in samples taken from the site of the fire at the rear of the one-story building. An insurance company witness said the cost to repair damage done by the blaze was $9,344. Mr. Wainwright had been indicted for “feloniously and maliciously, or with intent to defraud an insurance company, burn or destroy, in whole or in part, a building, to wit, the Old Hollow Grocery, of a value of $200 or more, when no person was in such building." Prosecution witnesses said the grocery’s financial condition had worsened and that Mr. Wainwright had tried to sell the building, which he had purchased less than three months before the fire. Ownership of the building has now reverted to its previous owner following a courthouse auction, but the store remains closed.

Volleyball clinches playoff with win By MARKSCOLFORO Rappahannock N»w« Staff WriUr The Rappahannock High volleyball team held off a late rally by Manassas Park Monday night to clinch at least a tie-breaker to decide if they or Clarke County will advance to the four-team Bull Run District Tournament this weekend. Clarke was scheduled to play Manassas Park Wednesday, and if the Eagles win they would force a tiebreaking game against the Panthers at Stonewall Jackson-Mount Jackson Thursday. Rappahannock’s varsity beat the MP Cougars, 15-8, 17-15 in a game that wasn’t as close as the score until the very end of the second game, and then primarily because the entire RCHS bench was put in to get some experience. “It was like our Super Bowl,” ' said Coach Paul Paratore. The largest crowd of the season showed up for the home win, which improved the team’s record to 9-5 overall, 4-4 in the district. Clarke was 3-4 in the district going into their Wednesday night game against Manassas Park. “They were under pressure, and they won under pressure,” said Coach Paratore. After the emotional win some of the Rappahannock players burst into tears. The nine wins is a new school record, beating last year’s mark of 8-5. Rappahannock has never made the district volleyball tournament. Assuming Clarke loses or the Panthers win the tie-breaker, Rappahannock will travel to Page County for the tournament, which begins at 10 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 15. The first- and second-place JV teams will also play the JV championship at Page Saturday, and district coaches will select their first, second and honorable-mention teams for the season. The regular season standings don’t count for anything except determining tournament teams, and seedings. Rappahannock, if they make it, will be seeded fourth and will have to play the top-ranked team, probably Page County. Basketball team drops to 16-1 Central The Rappahannock High varsity basketball team made its first eight shots Feb. 7, but the fast start couldn’t overcome the balanced offense put forward by Central, 1(5-1 and ranked first in the state for single-A. Seniors James Roy and Jason » Henry both had nine points in the i first quarter, as the Panthers built a It 23-21 lead. But the second stanza J ’ saw three Rappahannock starters get into foul trouble and the team !! committed nine turnovers. I 1 I I Central came back in the second quarter, outscoring Rappahannock 23-9 and building a 12-point halftime lead against the visiting Panthers. Central’s marquee player, 6-3 forward Jared Hoover, had been averaging 21 points per game, but Roy marked him man-to-man and held him to only 17 points. Roy led the Panthers in scoring with 22 points and pulled down 10 rebounds. “Central showed why they’re number one,” said Coach Gary Leake: six of their players were in double figures. Three Panters had at least 10: Roy, Henry (14 points), and Kevin Jolliffe (13). Michael Williams had eight. Williams continues to lead the team in scoring with 17.3 points per game, and in rebounding with an 11.5 average. Against Central, “Their depth was a key, but even in the third quarter we cut their lead to four,” said Coach Leake. Then, in the final quarter, Rappahannock was forced to foul, and Central’s players made 10 of 12 free throws to ice the contest. The Central loss and a Tuesday night loss at Strasburg (details not available at press time) dropped the Panthers’ record to 4-15 overall, 3-11 in the Bull Run District. This week Rappahannock has Parent’s Night against Manassas Park at home 6 p.m. Friday, Feb. 14. The final game of the season is at Stonewall Jackson-Mount Jackson, Feb. 18. The district tournament will be held Feb. 24-28 at Warren County High in Front Royal. Central and Strasburg are expected to be the top two seeds, with Stonewall, Clarke and George Mason in the three,through-five slots. JV basketball falls to Central, Strasburg Jason Settle scored 15 points, Ray Atkins had 12 and A1 Kellert 11 with five rebounds in the J V basketball team's 62-54 loss at Central Friday. Rappahannock played well in the second half, but Central had built an 11-point halftime lead and held it for most of the game. Against Strasburg Tuesday night, Atkins had 14 points and three assists in a 43-117 loss. Settle scored 12 and Raymond Williams had six. Both Settle and Williams had six rebounds to lead the team.

Junior Panthers end season with 7 wins The Junior Panther team led ‘2r>13 at the half of their season-ending game against Stonewall Friday, but couldn’t hold on. The final: Stonewall 44, Rappahannock 37. "They (Stonewall) didn't come alive, we went flat,” said Coach Leake. Rappahannock only made six field goals in the second half and not a single free-throw. Jon Butler led all players with 1<> points and Mark Jenkins had six—all in the first half. Tim O’Meara rounded out the scoring with five. “Their season has concluded. They won seven games and 1 think all the original goals set were achieved," said Coach Leake. Most importantly, he said, the players made great strides in improving their technique and basketball knowledge.

Hoops star attracts recruiters' attentions By MARK SCOLFORO Kappahannork Nm Staff Writer Trivia question: Which current Rappahannock high school basketball player is averaging 28.3 points and 10.6 rebounds per game this year, has scored more than 1,000 career points—and is still a junior? Answer: Bobby Nelson of Wakefield Country Day School in Huntly. Nelson, a varsity starter for Wakefield since he was a freshman, made the sports page of the Washington Post two weeks ago after scoring 51 points in a 86-59 win over Notre Dame Academy in Middleburg. Although there were several errors in the Post’s piece, it attracted a recruiter from national basketball powerhouse Georgetown University, who called Nelson’s coach Jim Harris for more information this week. Coach Harris said the Wakefield CDS offense is designed around Nelson, who is the oldest player on a team filled with sophomores. And on defense Nelson becomes a center, where the 6foot-1 player has an amazing 66 blocked shots. The 5-12 Wakefield CDS team is without a win in Delaney Conference play, but Nelson has provided plenty of highlights. In the Wendy’s Tournament at Randolph-Macon in December, a strong Bethlehem Baptist squad double-teamed him, but he still set a tournament scoring mark, getting 70 [mints in two games. In the Fredericksburg Tip-Off Tournament this season he had 71 [mints in three games—all on the same day. Nelson is the Wakefield CDS team captain, and an exceptionally unselfish athlete, said the coach. In the Notre Dame contest he was 22-of-36‘from the field, had 22 rebounds and nine blocked shots, but in the fourth quarter Coach Harris had to pressure him Bobby Nelson to shoot in order to break the 50point mark. “He’s just an allaround athlete,” said Coach Harris. In addition to making both alltournament teams, he was also all-Delaney this fall in soccer for the second time and was all-conference in basketball last year as a sophomore (he’s a shoo-in this season as well, and will probably take the conference scoring title). Coach Harris said he’s also an outstanding lacross player and an accomplished deep-sea diver. With his senior year still to go, his coach expects him to continue the scoring pace that has him averaging 19.6 points per game over his career." “He wants to get a scholarship," and is already talking to the Coast Guard Academy in addition to the Georgetown inquiry, said his coach. Coaches from Maryland have also contacted the school. Nelson is the son of Louis R. Nelson Jr. of Front Royal and Ruth Nelson of Winchester. The Junior Panthers’ .700 winning percentage furnished the highlight of what has otherwise been a disappointing season for Rappahannock basketball teams. Coach Leake said he saw the players were seriously dedicated early on this season. when, during conditioning exercises, “several of the players broke through the back doors to the parking lot to rid themselves of their lunches." “I predict that when these guys are juniors and seniors, Rappahannock basketball fans will be in for a treat,” said Coach Leake. ^vde RESJ^^j «V°^ & Gift Shop Vv AT LURAY — ESTABLISHED 1937 r/^ Bring your Valentine to BROOKSIDE for a Special Candlelight \\ ' ' 'I _ Dinner NXJ Wday, February 14th. 5-8:30 p.m. Free Gift for Ladies A-| Extensive Buffet and Steak Special 4 miles east of Luray or 4 miles west of Skyline Drive 703/745-5698 Your Hosts: Bob at CeCe Castle Thank You!

Thp Audit Bureau THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 13,1992 Transport problems Sometime in the next couple months a special committee will report to the Rappahannock School Board about problems aboard the school system’s buses. Once again the school administration deserves credit for identifying a growing problem, devising an inclusive approach to examine it, and moving to solve it before it worsens. Many readers will do doubt remember an incident this year in which a student reportedly brought a small-caliber handgun aboard a school bus. This paper also reported this year that transportation problems were considered the major issue of concern in a survey of Rappahannock Elementary parents conducted by the school system in the fall. Although most parents were satisfied that “the transportation services that are offered by the Rappahannock County School Board are excellent,” almost 50 strongly disagreed, and about 25 disagreed—the single largest area of parental concern in the 10question survey. There have been other reports: obscene exposure aboard a bus, racially insensitive comments by a bus driver, a student’s hair being lit on fire by another student. Superintendent David Gangel, while he would not confirm or deny the incidents involving pupil-personnel issues (in accordance with the school system’s written policy), has expressed his concern about the transportation system. “There are always problems in situations where you bring numbers of people together,” he said. Where problems have come to light, he said, they have been fully investigated. The exposure incident (or incidents, as we have heard) was looked into and there was “enough evidence of wrongdoing to take disciplinary action.” Given the students’ rights of privacy, we are satisfied with his statements on the topic. “Bus transportation is not a right, bus transportation is a privilege,” according to the superintendent, and we agree. If the schools’ tranportation committee finds a growing abuse of the privilege among students, we would suggest tightening the standards. Kicking a few problem students off the buses could be just the message that needs to be sent to the children—and their parents. Part of the problem, it seems, is that younger children and high school students all ride together on the bus. “We’re looking at the age issue right now,” said Dr. Gangel. “We realize that it’s a concern and ... I ktftw they have some recommendations.” The issue of racist statements and attitudes among staff members is another matter, and we are satisfied that the school administration will not tolerate them where they are found. Taxing power or not This could be the year that the General Assembly sees fit to grant Virginia residents the power that 49 other states have to directly elect school board members. We strongly support such a change in state law, and we go one step further and endorse legislative initiatives that will give the boards the ability to enact local taxes to support their programs. A good deal of space in the state’s newspapers has gone recently to the issue of taxing power, and schooL board members in other counties have said they would not run unless they get taxing authority. We think that shows a lack of thoughtfulness. Do county sheriffs offices have taxing power? No. Are they still effective? Usually. The same can be said for other constitutional offices. They all administer budgets without being able to set tax rates. In fact, appointed school boards are in that very situation as the law stands today. Richmond’s male-lawyer General Assembly has concocted the taxation issue as a specious smokescreen to maintain the current insider system of appointed school boards. Taxation is not the issue. The real question is whether local government should be directly responsible to their constituents—at the ballot box. With or without taxing authority, but preferably with, we hope in 1993 our school board members are popularly elected. We trust Virginia’s voters—does Richmond? v Rappahannock Heritage Katherine Riley, second from right, instructs quilting students at the Extension Office Tuesday.

Letters to the Editor Gid Brown road history To the Editor: At rhw February Board of Supervisors meeting I was given the credit/blame for Route 622 not being widened and paved like the first two miles into Gid Brown Hollow. I wrote a short piece on the advantages of keeping some of our dirt roads back in 1989 or so. The landowner that was referred to at the public meeting on the six-year road plan contacted me after she read the article. She indicated it was a “breath of fresh air” after apparently being heavily pressured by people trying to convince her to donate the right of way so the roadway could be widened and paved through her property. This person had been convinced to leave her farm the way she and her husband had enjoyed it for close to 50 years, long before I wrote the article. When she could no longer manage the farm after her husband passed away she donated an easement on it so the main part of the farm would be left intact in perpetuity. She indicated to me that she did not want this highway going through her property and asked me to look into the project to see why so much pressure was being placed on her. I talked to our county and Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) officials and they indicated that the problem was with dust and a sharp corner and the rest was included because the right of way was being donated. No other road “improvements” were planned in Gid Brown Hollow for the next six years. So it appeared that a compromise could be agreed to that would meet her wishes of leaving the farm intact and still meet the county’s concerns for safety. They agreed to the compromise and she and VDOT signed an agreement with her donating all the right of way that was necessary for this improvement. The 6-7 other landowners adjacent to her property were not required to donate their (ROWVand the entire widening and broadening of the curve was accomplished on her property. I feel that she was prepared to turn down the larger project even though she had let state officials proceed with working out an agreement. Her sincere love for her property, far outweighed the economic benefits of the farm improvement VODT promised if the donation was made. So, her only drive to let the project proceed was her concern for her neighbors. I feel the donation of an open space easement that keeps over 300 acres of her land intact into perpetuity provides much more for her neighbors than the improvement could ever provide. With some widening within the existing right of way, as was proposed at the meeting, the existing roadway will be safe and adequate. If all the other roads are eventually widened and paved in Gid Brown Hollow, even then this short section through the heart of her farm will be a welcomed relief, to go slower and enjoy the scenic beauty that makes Rappahannock so special. MARC MALIK Washington, Va. WE AGREE YOU HAVE THE QUALIFICATIONS FOR SERVING ON THE ARB - ARE YOU A RESIDENT-? Awakened in the night To the Editor: On Monday, Feb. 3, I was awakened at 3:15 a.m. by my dog barking furiously, alarmed children, and scared wife, all of this from a car driving around the property and shining a spotlight all over the property and in the windows of my house. As I was getting dressed to see what was going on and to get outside to stop this, I saw the car leaving the drive; this was a Rappahannock County deputy’s car. I then called the Sheriffs Office to find out what was going on. I asked the dispatcher, and she said, “I guess she was looking for something.” I asked, “What is she looking for at 3:15 in the morning?” She replied, “I don’t know, you can call the sheriff in the morning.” Don’t I have the right to know what this car was doing on the property, shining its spotlight around the outbuildings, vehicles', and driving up to the next house, alarming a 70year-old widow? I called Sheriff Woodward the same morning, he said, “There had been a breaking and entering in Fauquier County and they were looking for a blue truck.” And since I once was employed by the company [that was broken into] I was a suspect and Fauquier had asked them to check to see if my truck was there and get a tag number. I then called Fauquier County and they were, needless to say, very surprised that it had been at least 10 years since I had worked for this company and apologized for the inconvenience. They were also very concerned for the way this was handled in Rappahannock. My name was automatically cleared. I then sought legal advice concerning the matter in Fauquier County and also explained the actions of Deputy [Connie] Compton. It was then suggested I file a formal complaint with the sheriff. At this time I went to Sheriff Woodward to file the complaint and this is what happened: Sheriff Woodward said, “May I help you?” “Yes,” I replied. “I would like to file a formal complaint.” “File it.” he snapped. “Don’t I need paperwork?” I • asked. “No, just file it,” he snapped again. I started to explain to him again what had happened and he cut me off and said, “We were looking for your tag numbjer. Now you have made your complaint, there’s the door, GET OUT.” He was not interested in anything I had to say. My truck is parked under a pole light in clear sight of the highway and it is white. If they needed a tag number it was the first vehicle she came to driving down the drive. It would have been very easy to pull in behind the vehicle, get the number, back out and leave, but Deputy Compton chose to drive by the vehicle, by the house about 100 yards to the next house, causing havoc with the dog and waking everyone up by shining her spotlight all over the place. I went to the Sheriffs Office following advice from counsel to handle my complaint properly against the deputy. There is no reason for a citizen of Rappahannock to be treated in this manner from an elected official. A tax paying citizen that funds the Sheriffs Office and pays their salaries should not ever be told to get out with such an UNPROFESSIONAL ATTITUDE. Sheriff Woodward has left me with no alternative than to file my formal complaint with a higher official, only now there will be two, not one. EVERETT R. SMITH Jr. Amissville Where were the parents? To the Editor: I went to the monthly Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) meeting last night and I could have fit everyone there into my van! I’m wondering where are all the parents? The parents I see at baseball, soccer, church, conference night and the public hearing on the middle school? The PTO meets only once a month for 2-3 hours. It gives you a chance to find out what is going on and to show your support for your teachers. We are very lucky to have an open administration and teachers. I’ve heard different people with ideas and this would give them a chance to get involved. They can also find out information about (for example) the transportation committee findings: Bob Chappell gave a report. Raye Tupper would love to hear from anyone who would like to volunteer any amount of time at the school. This county has many untapped wonderful resources we could share with our children and help our over-burdened teachers. The spring meeting is coming up on Feb. 29 and children are welcome. So please come and listen or come and get involved. DIANA CORBIN Slate Mills Letters policy The Rappahannock News is your newspaper.

This company has for some time been interested in locating a plant in this county. The land is known as the “Robert Grimsley Farm” at Pullen Town and is now owned by M.R. Bradford Jr. of Flint Hill. Formerly the company had manifested interest in only 4 or 5 acres. They preferred the Flint Hill area for its central location and because it was not too close to their plant in Culpeper. This location will have to be approved by the New York office before further action will be taken. T.C. Lea Jr., son of Mrs. T.C. Lea of Washington, Va., was included in the list of candidates who passed the Virginia State Bar Examination held in Richmond in December.

As young as each year’s spring, Durant is full of new and better ideas, and carries them out faster than it takes most people to contemplate a problem. New on the card will be a hurdle race, a mile and a half over ten jumps. The course is twice around the field over five jumps, which are all in full view of spectators. Already installed is a new public address system and part of a new steeplechase course. A whole set of new flags for the race course has been made by the chairman’s charming wife Emily. Visits to the Shenandoah National Park totaled 61,900 last month as compared to 38,900 in January of last year, a 59.1 percent increase. R.

Cherokee Ski Area recently played host to Wakefield Country Day School’s Winter Sports Week program. The program, which lasted seven days thanks to Cherokee’s generous donation of an extra day to make up for warm weather earlier in the season, was a rousing success. The students, some of whom advanced three skills levels during their first week’s experience on skis, credit the creative teaching methods of their ski instructors Larry Shoud, Stephanie Handley, (a former student at the school) and Ray Johnson. Some older students were heard to say, “Last year we hated to go to classes, but this year we didn’t want classes to end.” Dietmar Tannheiser, ski school supervisor, announced that Mathew Kravitz had the fastest time in the races held Feb. 10, while Patrick Mulligan and Courtney Beeton placed second and third. In accessing the student’s technical skills, Mr. Tannheiser selected Welby Lynn and Patrick Mulligan as overall best girl and boy skiers.

Economist certified The Council for Certification at the American Home Economics Association has just announced that Helen W. Smith, Extension agent, home economics for Rappahannock County, has earned the Certified Home Economist (CHE) credential. As one of 8,500 CHEs across the United States, Mrs. Smith demonstrates continuing commitment to maintaining a current level of knowledge in the field of home economics. CHEs work in diverse roles internationally. A CHE might be found in San Francisco conducting research, in New York managing a hotel staff, in Dallas advising viewersfhow to invest, in Atlanta using a gtatre-of-the-art computer to design a bank lobby, in Paris buying a new fall line for retail, or in Omaha teaching family living courses. The common link of all these people is the multidimensional profession of home economics and a commitment to continuing education. By becoming a CHE, a practitioner validates attainment of a measurable level of knowledge in home economics and a commitment to expanding that knowledge-base. Certification requires a minimum of a bachelor’s degree from a regionallyaccredited college or university and a passing score on the national home economics examination. Mrs. Smith completes 75 professional develoopment units (PDUs) every three years to remain certified. The American Home Economics Association, which serves as an advocate for home economists and represents the field to external constituencies, was founded in 1909. As one of the oldest professional organizations in the United States, the association has spearheaded the certification effort: • To provide assurance to consumers that Certified Home Economists are well prepared for professional practice.

Rappahannock News Staff Photo/LisaG. Currie Vi Vierling’s back-up for sewing jobs is months. Her shop is on U.S. 522 in Flint Hill. Aunt Jane's sewing business is part of Flint Hill's fabric By LISA G. CURRIE Rappahannock N«w» Staff Writer Vi Vierling of Flint Hill has found her simple idea of a part-time job has turned into a full-time career. Mrs. Vierling owns and operates Aunt Jane’s Sewing and Alterations in Flint Hill, located on the southern end of the old packing house next to Settle’s Garage on U.S. 522. “I can’t remember when I was not making something,” she said, adding even as a child she made doll clothes. As an adult, she began to sew out of “necessity, though I never thought this would be a business,” said Mrs. Vierling, a small blonde woman sitting in a neat shop amid sewing machines and utensils of various descriptions. As a bookkeeper in Maryland, her talents, due to her finely tailored suits, were noticed. After several “favors” she closed the books and started sewing part-time while working in a fabric shop where she Wakefield * ~ honor roll announced The following students from Rappahannock County received first honors during the second quarter of the current school year at Wakefield School in Marshall: first graders Christina Luke, Ian Matthews, Adrianne Moore and Emily Yates; second graders Spencer Baumgardner and Maggie-Sinclair Ruisi; third grader Laura Yates; fourth grader Sarah Yates; sixth graders Robb DeBergh and Holly Wright; seventh graders Van DeBergh and Scott Updike and twelfth grader Alison Martin. Several Rappahannock students were named to the second-honors list: third grader Katie. Updike, fourth grader Jamie Harris, seventh graders Mary Beth Williams and Katie Zindel and eleventh grader Stephanie Tomeden. became familiar with textiles and fabrics. Today, her thriving business in the face of a national recession speaks for her work. Her two-room shop is made into three with a curtain of clothes hanging from one wall. The walls above her U-shaped workspace are decorated with a rainbow of colored thread. She admits to not enjoying nightly television. While others watch she finds time to do handiwork—not just sewing, but alterations of all kinds. “Alterations, sewing, mending, these are the things I really enjoy,” she said, adding that most other seamstresses do not like the “tedious jobs like these.” Known to mend a few horse blankets, create a dress or two, and alter just about anything, Mrs. Vierling has a few things she will not do— slipcovers, upholstery and picking and purchasing someone else’s material. “I prefer the smaller jobs,” she said with a quick smile. She also, prefers to alter men’s clothing and copy patterns from already made garments. “I love to take an old favorite and copy it," she said, explaining that then the customer has a garment “exactly like they want." While dressmaking is not her preference, she does oblige. At present she is three to four months behind due to demand. Through word of mouth, her talent has been advertised and business is busy for Aunt Jane’s. “1 was working 10-hour days before Christmas," she said. A mother and housewife, Mrs. Vierling has been in business for over 12 years, since she moved to the county with her husband, local chimney sweep Bruce Vierling, and daughter Jennifer. From the Eastern Shore area in Maryland, the Vierlings moved the county to live on a farm. With a bookkeeping background and her first sewing machine in tow, she started her business at the far end of the packing house. She says she did not expect much the first two years, but to her surprise the business grew. “I kept telling myself, ‘I don’t have to do this,’ ” she said with a smile. “Now, it would be terrible to do anything else,” she said with a shake of her head. With their daughter approaching teenage years, Mrs. Vierling decided to give up the shop and work at her home, which also served as a residence for female students at Wakefield. “I liked being at home but my concentration was not nearly as good,” she said. And, though working at home was successful, Mrs. Vierling found many people did not “like coming to my home.” A few years ago, her daughter went to college and Mrs. Vierling moved Aunt Jane’s into its present location. Her business, started with a few local clients, has grown to include clients from Warren and Fauquier counties. With the growth in business, Mrs. Vierling has found the need and resources for newer and more technological equipment. — She has invested in an electronic sewing machine, a hemmer and an overlock—three new devices to make the job more professional and much easier. “I’ve always dreamed of having a sewing machine like this,” she said with pride, running her hands over the machine. Emergency funds granted The Federal Emergency Management Agency has granted Rappahannock County $7,700 to supplement emergency food and shelter programs. A local board will determine how the funds awarded are to be distributed to county service organizations. Call Nancy Reeve at 675-3313 to apply; deadline is 4:30 p.m. Feb. 21.

The supervisors: • Delayed action on tax relief for the elderly.

Williams finishes course Thomas V. Williams, director of the Rappahannock County unit of the Virginia Cooperative Extension Service, was recently awarded a certificate of achievement for completing Class 3 of the Virginia Rural Leadership Development Program (VRLDP). Supported in part by funds from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, the VRLDP is conducted by the Virginia Cooperative Extension Service as a single, joint endeavor of Virginia’s land-grant universities—Virginia State University and Virginia Tech. i Mr. Williams received his award from Glen L. Sink, president of the program’s administrative board, and Lorenza W. Lyons, interim associate vice president for agriculture and Extension at Virginia State University. Mr. Williams had an opportunity to take part in each of the 16 sessions of Class 3 of the VRLDP. The pro gram included 14 three-day sessions held in different counties and cities across the Commonwealth, one fiveday session held in Washington, I).C., and one 10-day multi-state tour-conference through portions of four states in Central Appalachia. Participants in Class 3 learned how local government, and some aspects of the federal government, function. They also learned about selected aspects of policy Applicable to agricultural and forestry, how to conduct a survey of a small community, and many other practical things, including the role that ethics, justice, and religion have in leadership. The VRLDP is designed to enable participants to learn that the product of leadership is judgment in action and that the ultimate test of practical leadership is the realization of intended real change that meets the enduring needs of people.

Richmond Continued from page A-1 Sen. Charles Waddell, D-Loudoun/Fairfax, who opposed the bill in committee, claimed the bill sends a different message. “The message of this bill is clear: in Virginia, nothing is historic unless its owner wants it to be,” Sen. Waddell told the committee. It is still unclear what the House intends to do with the bill. Though a similar bill was introduced in the House, it was killed in committee while patrons on the Senate side debated amendments. The House action was not a vote against the bill, but merely a move to allow the Senators to work out the details, according to Del. William Robinson Jr., who sits on the House committee charged with reviewing the measure. Though opponents of the bill lost on the Senate side, they claim they will fight harder on the House side. “They haven’t answered the question of the fiscal impact of the bill. There is a potential for us to lose $600,000 in federal funding because of this,” said Sen. Waddell. Sen. Waddell said the state may lose federal grants for the two threatened existing historic districts if the bill becomes law and the landowners vote to abolish the districts. Off-track betting passed by House The House of Delegates passed a bill Feb. 11 that will, permit off-track betting on horse races. The bill allows the licensing of up to six off-track betting establishments in the state and is promoted as a tool to attract race track developers to Virginia. Off-track betting places carry televised races and take bets on each race. Parts of the proceeds from the betting go to the track, the state and the horse breeders fund. By a narrow 53-41 margin, the House agreed to the measure in a preliminary vote Feb. 10. It took two votes to pass the bill Feb. 11. On the first vote (50-48), the bill failed because it did not recieve more than 50 votes. The second vote, less than 10 minutes later, gave the bill a margin of 55-42 for a more comfortable victory. Some argued against the bill, saying it was an inroad for sin and another problem for the poor. Supporters argued that the measure is a sure way to boost the growing horse industry in the state. “[Betting] is a price of admission that makes it possible to have the races, which makes it possible to have the purses [payoff to winning horses], which makes it possible to have the horses, which makes it possible to sell the feed, which allows us to enhance the breeders fund,” said Del. Andy Guest, R-Warren. Del. Guest and the bill’s sponsor, Del. Lewis Parker, D-South Hill, said the measure would attract a large race track to Virginia. Del. Parker read from a letter sent by the owners of Churchill Downs track in Kentucky that supported the measure and noted that the firm may be interested in building a track here. Abortion bills being considered Bills requiring that girls under the a# of 18 get their parents’ permission before getting an abortion failed in a Senate committee but passed in the House last week. The parental notification bills have popped up in the General Assembly for several years. Most years the bill passes through the House easily only to be killed in the Senate. That is the probable fate this year as the House bill will be sent to the same committee that killed the Senate*version of the measure. That committee, Health and Education, easily killed the bill this year by a vote of 11-7. Special bond-issue session proposed The Northern Virginia delegation is sharply divided over a series of bond proposals floating around the General Assembly this year and might press for a special session to deal with the bond bills in depth. Proposals from Gov. L. Douglas Wilder, House Republicans and the House majority leader all have serious flaws, according to remarks made at two hastily called meetings of the delegation. Gov. Wilder is proposing a $640 million bond package without any money for transportation. Republicans are offering $700 million with $300 million of the money going to transportation.

He served as chief for eight years, turning over the reins in January, 1991. • Volunteer chief, Fairfax Co. 18 (Jefferson). • Member, McLean Fire Department since 1938, joining when he was only 15 years old. Mr. Poling is also very active in the Amissville United Methodist Church, where he is former Church Board chairman, a lay speaker, and for 25 years taught adult Sunday school. He retired after 33 years as a staff engineer with C&P Telephone. Mr. Poling, his wife Gertie, daughter Cheryl Taylor and her k .Paul Poling family attended the awards ceremony in Hampton last week. Paul Reisler Continued from page A-1 “When I write, I have to write from something that’s familiar to me,” he said. One of his songs draws on the work of Kentucky poet Wendell Berry. The theme is the “strength country people have that keeps them going," so he drew from his love of the rural life and firsthand experiences in Rappahannock and West Virginia. He plans to perform that piece, “Working in Remembered Ways,” during the Exchange program. Although he and Trapezoid have performed hundreds and hundreds of times all across the country, playing in his own community is “completely different. ... I’m a performer, but at the heart of any performance is my relationship to the community.” Listening to his work, those who also live in Rappahannock have more awareness of “what you’re talking about,” he said. “My music is very clearly music written of and from a rural environment. ... I’d be lost in a place like (New York City). I need peace in order to work. I need quiet, I need to be alone.” While isolation may help Mr. Reisler in the creative process, he’s no hermit, locking himself away in order to compose. He and wife Julie Portman are among the county’s most prominent artists, and they recently traveled to Richmond to protest cuts to the state arts agency, the-Virginia Commission for the Arts. ” “Arts in the community is important, so I’m willing to do whatever I have to do to encourage it in my state,” he said. The same could be said for his efforts to support and foster arts in Rappahannock County. “There are some very fine artists who are withdrawn and locked away, and then there are those who are part of the community. I happen to be part of the latter,” he said.' “It’s an incredibly strong arts community here. Per capita, it’s probably the strongest arts community I’ve ever even heard of,” he said. About eight years ago, Trapezoid was based near Keyser, W.Va., but they decided they needed to be closer to the D.C. area. He and Ms. Portman drew a 1 1/2 hour circle around a map of the city and visited most of the small communities, scouting them out. Rappahannock was the only one that had both a rural way of life, natural beauty and a large number of other artists. During Ms. Portman’s first day in Washington she met choreographer Sally Nash and attended a film and lecture about Carl Jung—the die was cast. “Nothing substitutes for arts being a part of daily life,” he said. Mr. Reisler said he looks forward to getting people’s questions about his work and their input about what they epjoy in his music during the Exchange Sunday. “People can always come see a concert, but it’s rare to be let in on the artistic process,” he said. Instead of simply telling an entertaining story about the individual songs and compositions, as he normally would, he will be able to “find out if my message is clear— if people know what I’m talking about.” The evening’s festivities begin at. 7:30 p.m. Sunday in the Ki Theatre building (old town hall) on pay Street in Washington, Va. Advance tickets are available at Mountainside Market in Washington for $5. They are $6 at the door, but the event is expected to sell out. For details call Ki Theatre at 987-3167. School Board Continued from page A-1 And 1.5 percent of the 8th graders report using uppers compared to 4.2 percent nationally. Finally, 3 percent report using other drugs compared to 5.6 percent nationally. Other classes present a more mixed picture. Fourteen percent of sixth graders report using cigarettes, 26.3 percent beer, 29.8 percent wine coolers and 15.8 percent liquor. Only 1.8 percent report using marijuana, cocaine, uppers, downers, inhalants and hallucinogens, and 8.8 percent using other drugs. These figures are above the national percentages for beer, wine coolers, liquor, cocaine, uppers, downers, hallucinogens and other drugs. They are below national percentages for cigarettes, and inhallents and the same as the national percentage for marijuana. Seventh graders are above national figures for cigarettes, wine coolers and inhalents and below national percentages for beer, liquor, marijuana, cocaine, uppers, downers, hallucinogens and other drugs. Ninth graders were above national percentages for cigarettes, beer, wine coolers, liquor, marijuana, uppers, inhalants and hallucinogens. They reported lower use of cocaine, downers and other drugs than the national sample. Tenth graders reported more had used six categories of drugs than the national sample and lower numbers using five categories of drugs than the nmational sample. More of Rappahannock’s high school juniors used three categories of drugs than the national sample and fewer used the other eight categories. “I thought I was a tough old bird, but this shook me,” Piedmont District representative Frances Thornton said. Chairman Beverly Massie said, “We think we live in a rural community and do not have the same problems as other areas. We’re only putting our heads in the sand. A I---1 American Heart Association number of these young people using beer and cigarettes are under legal age. They are acquiring these items, and the community is playing a role.” The survey also shows that fewer Rappahannock students than students nationally report that their parents, teachers and friends talk with them about the harmful effects of drugs. It also shows that fewer of them than the national sample “like the way” they look. Guidance counselor Joyce GoodEwing reported that a committee working on the problem is arranging parenting classes. The goal is to reduce the use of drugs 20 percent in two years. 'Hie School Board also heard a request from the junior class to hold the Junior-Senior Prom at Fauquier Springs Country Club. Class president Lori Paratore said the juniors did not want to hold the prom in the elementary school gymnasium. She said there would have been less interest in going outside the county if the students could have used the high school gymnasium for the prom. The board agreed to let School Superintendent David Gangel and Mrs. Massie make the decision on using Fauquier Springs. Dr. Gangel said he wanted to consult with high school principal John Toth and visit the facility himself. ^The board voted to hire an additional special education teacher on a part-time basis. The special education classes, especially for the learning disabled, are at or near the capacity allowed by state and federal guidelines and 10 more students are being evaluated for placement in such classes. Dr. Gangel pointed out that he would also have to locate a space for the additional class. The board adopted a policy barring weapons from school property and tabled until next month consideration of a policy to refuse admission to a student who has been expelled or suspended from another school until the student is eligible to re-enter the original school. The board heard a presentation by gifted 7th grade students who had worked on a project to relocate humans if the earth becomes uninhabitable. One group designed a colony for another planet. The other planned for settlement on the sea floor.

Furniture maker creates reproductions Slate Mills designer has Culpeper shop By LISA G. CURRIE Rappahannock N«w» Staff Writer The 18th Century reproduction desk that won the Middle Street Gallery Wood Show held in October was one piece of furniture creator Mark Pace found he was attached to. “I kept it around for a while,” the tall-broad shoulder woodworker said, running his fingers through his already tosseled hair, looking at a photograph of the desk. Standing amid wood shavings, patterns, nearly complete projects and large machinery in his shop located on East Street, Culpeper, Mr. Pace brushes sawdust from his sweatshirt and jeans and admits his attachment for the piece was “rare.” “I liked that desk,” he said of the tall, secretarystyle desk with three drawers in the bottom and several compartments in the top. The drawers were finished with inlay and brass fixtures. It was sold at the end of the show. “I like making furniture,” he said with a smile, brushing dust from a table. “More than cabinets.” Besides creating reproduction furniture, Mr. Pace is also a well-known cabinetmaker. “I would love to do nothing but build chairs,” Mr. Pace said, standing amid parts of a near-complete walnut chair. “But, there is no line for chairs,” he said with laughter. Though creating furniture is his true vocation, Mr. Pace does custom-cabinetry upon request. Explaining that while people enjoy fine furniture, few are willing to pay the price for its workmanship or wait for its completion. Thus, cabinetmaking, a necessary addition to many homes, supports Mr. Pace’s business. Preferring a picture or already designed cabinet space, Mr. Pace works in materials of the buyer’s choice. Originally of Richmond, Mr. Pace of Slate Mills has come quite a ways since his early days as an educator. After spending time making ends meet with Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Lisa G. Cumc Mark Pace took first place in the Middle Street Gallery Wood Show last year. renovations and cabinetry, he found he enjoyed the work more than the classroom. Taking his pregnant wife and young son, Mr. Pace entered a trade school in Boston for specialized training. “It was not a design school," he said of North Bennett Street School where he finished a 24-month program in just 14 months. There he learned a “very traditional style” of woodworking, thus his perfection in classic-style furniture for the modern home. But, selling furniture is as much science as it is art. “You’ve got to have a show room and a salesman to really sell furniture,” he said, alluding to his outof-the-way workroom with no showroom space and less room for a salesman. “It would be great to just build whatever I wanted and have people come in and buy it,” he said. Working toward his desire, he, presently, takes orders for select items like country-style kitchen tables, 18th Century chairs, woodboxes of slightlyShaker design, and kitchen cabinets. “I can basically do what people want," he said, adding often people are willing to wait and pay for traditional work, though many want bottom-line items with traditional features at commerical costs. Requiring a place with ample space that is able to support heavy machinery, Mr. Pace said he has always “found himself working in old buildings” like the one in Culpeper. His anticipated move in late February to Sperryville offers him some change though the building is still old. I 'Angels' author gives lecture Sophy Burnham, author of the bestselling religious book “A Book of Angels,” will give a lecture in The Theatre at Washington, Va., 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 15, sponsored by the Middle Street Gallery and Artists’ Cooperative. The lecture is part of a month-long exhibit at the gallery by Maryland artists Felicia BelairRigdon, a collagist, and Tatiana, a potter. The lecture will feature a question-andanswer period, followed by a book signing and reception for the artists at the gallery. There is a $5 admission fee for the lecture. Exhibition curator Laurie Marshall, a Middle Street member artist, met Belair-Rigdon at the Maryland Hall for Creative Arts in Annapolis. Her work incorporates angel imagery, said Ms. Marshall. Ms. Burnham, who lives in D.C., agreed to give the lecture when contacted by Ms. Marshall. Belair-Rigdon, who has a bachelor’s degree from Virginia Commonwealth University, studied paper-making at Pyramid Atlantic and painting at the Corcoran. Her work is shown at the Adam Whitney Gallery in Omaha, Neb. and Fitzgerald Fine Art Gallery in Alexandria. 1 hese recent works incorporate her own handmade paper with embedded images. She uses found papers, her grandfather’s marbleized papers, and museum reproductions. The finished product is worked with wax, oil pastel and charcoal to unify the elements. The works focus on a longing and reverence for the spirit. Tatiana is a musician by training. Drawn to the simplicity and light-heartedness of Mexican, Russian, and Turkish folk art, golden onion domes and gilded icons emerge in her work. With six books and four plays to her name, Burnham has most recently recorded and explored the human experience with angels in “A Book of Angels” and “Angel Letters.” She was recently interviewed on National Public Radio’s Diane Rehm Show. Cabin Fever Books of Washington, Va. will offer both books for sale, sijined by the author. The show by Belair-Rigdon and Titiana runs through Feb. 23 at the gallery.

Staff Writer Evelyn Dellinger has brought i new talent to Rappahannocl County. A newcomer to the Castletor area, Mrs. Dellinger and her husband moved to the county in 1989. Among the moving boxes were scrapbooks filled with photos of Mrs. Dellinger’s weddings. “I just love weddings,” she said with a smile. Making the wedding perfect, Mrs. Dellinger creates the perfect cake complete with her own round table and lace cloth. Besides making the cake and bringing the table for it to stand upon, she delivers the masterpiece, sets it up and stays to serve the guests. It’s not a business, she says, but a hobby, a pleasure. Mrs. Dellinger has been making cakes since her two grown children were just boys. It was not until 1974 that she really got serious. As a Fairfax County resident, she took a cake decorating class offered through the county. “It taught me how to do the frosting, make the flowers and decorate the cake,” she said with modesty, a tall woman with dark hair. Not only does she create masterpiece wedding and anniversary cakes, her sugar-plum cottages and gingerbread houses are picturebook quality. In 1977, her birthday cake for U.S. Rep. Claude Pepper, D-Fla., was featured in People Magazine—a cake able to feed 300 people with hundreds of yellow roses tumbling over its sides. Since that time, Mrs. Dellinger says she has make cakes for everywhere, from the “Capitol to a bam.” “I’ve never made, one” that was so beautiftil she could not give it away. “If it satisfies me, then it’s ready to be cut,” she said with a smile, opening page after page of elegant white wedding and anniversay cakes. She remembers every wedding detail like they were her own. Cakes with icing that looks like a glass crown—lace points—cakes with real flowers, cakes with silk flowers, cakes with motorcyles and cakes with icing that glistens like silk highlight each page. Looking at the scrapbooks, it's hard to tell the real flowers from her carefully created frosting petals. Each cake, with its shells, rufAL*.___ Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Lisa G Cume Evelyn Dellinger keeps scrap books of past creations. Each cake, with its shells, ruffles, Comelli lace or satiny-smooth coat of icing, is perfect fles, Comelli lace or satiny-smooth coat of icing, is perfect. uI’ve even taken all the icing off and started over again,” she said with a smile, emphasizing the need for perfection in her line of work. Her cakes are homemade with carrot, spice and fudge as popular favorites. She said most customers do not know what type of cake they prefer but come to her with an open mind. The scrapbooks and her suggestions help her customers to find the pcucvnanr iui uiru m*run. It usually takes about three days to create the masterpiece, with the cake being made on Wednesday, the smooth frosting added on Thursday, the decorations done on Friday with all ready for the wedding on Saturday. She prefers getting years of advance notice, but she'll accept just a few weeks. . “I need all the notice I can get,” she said laughing. When colors need to be matched and certain flower shapes obtained, the more time she has the more comfortable she feels. Mrs. Dellinger charges $1.50 per serving of any design except the lace points, because they require several hours in preparation. „ The bride’s cake is free. Birthday, anniversary, wedding and other cakes can be ordered by calling Mrs. Dellinger at home at 987-8145. An instructor once told Mrs. Dellinger that the most beautiful thing at the wedding, next to the bride, should be #ie cake. She’s taken it to heart.

Wilder announced last week that the Soho Center in Madison County will receive a $30,000 Innovation Grant from the Center on Rural Development (CORD). The Soho Center’s grant is the only one awarded by CORD to a child care group in all of Virginia. The CORD Grant follows the Soho Center’s recent receipt of a $20,000 Planning Grant from the Virginia Council for Child Day Care and Early Childhood Programs. The Soho Center is working with over 40 cooperating agencies, area employers, and community groups in a six county region that includes Rappahannock, Culpeper, Greene, Madison, Orange and Page. “We are obviously very pleased that the CORD Initiative chose us for this grant. In these economic times, it is a very strong vote of confidence for our approach of focusing on family day care—both as a way to better educate children and to help the economics of rural areas. “To the extent that people have affordable and quality child care, they are most likely to be able to hold jobs. And well-run family day care is a business that contributes to the economic stability of the region,” said Jeanna Beker, Soho’s director. The CORD funds will be used to complete renovations on the Soho Center’s regional facility in Haywood. Once completed, the Soho Center will start on the first phase of its child care training programs. “Besides increasing the quality of family day care* our efforts make real economic sense. For example, having training programs for family day care providers allows us to sign them up on our USD A Food Program, which is already bringing a considerable amount of new money into the region. Right now, we’re reimbursing nearly $3,000 per month and expect to be reimbursing about $10,000 per month by the end of the year. That’s new money that is being spent right here in the region, and that helps everyone,” added Mrs. Beker.

Agriculture program underway for 1992 The Virginia Agricultural Best Management Practices (BMP) Cost Share Program is underway for 1992, but tffyh several changes, according to Kenneth Love, conservation specialist of the Culpeper Soil and Water Conservation District. In past years, the cost share program has had a periodic sign-up for farmers interested in receiving financial assistance for installing soil and water conservation measures. For 1992 the sign-up is continuous, lasting the duration of the program. The Culpeper Soil and Water Conservation District staff will also actively seek participants for this year’s cost share program. The district is working with state conservation officials to determine land areas with the greatest potential for agricultural runoff pollution—a major threat to Virginia’s waterways. Nutrients from ’animal waste, commercial fertilizers and projected erosion on pasture and cropland are factors used to determine potential for agricultural pollution. Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation/Division of Soil and Water Conservation staff input this data to a computerized database as the basis for hydrologic unit planning, or HUP. For HUP, such data are recreated as maps depicting soil and water conservation districts as a series of separate hydrologic units.

Even with cost share program changes, SWCD staff anticipate that, as in years past, demand for cost share assistance will exceed the funding available. While some of the program’s conservation practices are paid at a straight per acre rate, others are cost shared on a percentage basis up to 75 percent. In some cases, the USDA Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service (ASCS) or Virginia Department of Forestry also pay a percentage. In addition to districts, ASCS and Department of Forestry, the Virginia Cooperative Extension Service and USDA Soil Conservation Service are involved in the cost share program. Landowners may obtain more information about the r propram from any local office of these agencies. Practices for cost share assistance in the 1992 Cost Share Program are: animal waste control facilities, stripcropping systems, sod waterways, grazing land protection, reforestration of erodible crop and pastureland, stream protection and no-till pastureland and hayland. Sign-up for the 1992 Cost Share Program is currently underway at your local ASCS or Soil and Water Conservation District Office. The first sign up period will end Jan. 31. Future sign-up periods will be announced. For more information contact the local District office in Culpeper, 702-825-8591.

Adapt your recipes for a heart-healthy menu By HELEN W. SMITH Rappahannock News Contributing Writer The Rappahannock Unit of the American Heart Association recently kicked off its annual dinner to begin “February is Heart Month.” The board members treated all the volunteers who will be collecting donations during Heart Month to dinner. Since we try to “practice what we preach,” Maybelle Gilkey and I, who were the volunteer coordinators for the dinner, selected several recipes from the American Heart Association cookbook and adapted several of our own to make a hearthealthy menu. Goals of the AHA diet The three most important contributors to heart attack are a high blood cholesterol level, high blood pressure, and cigarette smoking. Other important risk factors are diabetes, overweight, lack of exercise, and a family history of early heart disease. If you learn to control your risk factors now, you may prevent heart attack in the future. The AHA plan outlines wholesome eating for a healthy, active lifestyle, while reducing the amount of cholesterol in your blood to the level safest for your heart. The AHA diet recommendations are: • Meet your daily needs of protein, vitamins, minerals, and other W 9 HOME ECONOMICS nutrients. • Achieve and maintain your best weight. • Reduce your total intake to about 30 percent of calories. • Avoid eating too many foods containing saturated fat and cholesterol. • Make these changes gradually over a period of several months so they become a natural part of your permanent eating pattern. The menu at the Heart Association Dinner was: Chicken and Broccoli Casserole, Rice Pilaf, Tossed Salad, Strawberry Congealed Salad, and Refrigerator Rolls or Raisin Rye Bread with Cocoa Fudge Cake or Strawberry Cake Roll for dessert. Several people requested the recipes so I promised to put them in my foods and nutrition column this week. Elegant chicken casserole (Maybelle Gilkey) 2 10-oz. pkgs. frozen broccoli 2 c. cooked, sliced chicken 1 can cream of chicken soup 1/2 c. low-calorie mayonnaise 11. lemon juice 11. curry 1/2 c. shredded cheese 1/2 c. soft bread crumbs Cook and drain broccoli. Arrange stalks in shallow casserole placing chicken on top. Combine soup, mayonnaise, lemon juice and curry. Pour over. Sprinkle cheese on top with bread crumbs from day-old bread. Bake 30 at 350 degrees. Serves: 6-8. Note: To make this casserole “heart-healthy,” use low-calorie mayonnaise and a cheese made with skim milk like mozzarella. Also, use a reduced-sodium condensed soup. Simply scrumptious strawberry salad (Helen Smith) 120-oz. can crushed pineapple 16-oz. box strawberry jello 2 c. buttermilk 1 8-oz. container low-calorie des sert whipped topping 1/2 c. chopped nuts Drain pineapple well; put juice ir a large glass bowl. In microwave oven, heat juice 1 to 2 minutes or high (juice should be hot, but not boiling). Add and dissolve jello. Cool. Add buttermilk and pineapple and put in refrigerator until mixture starts to thicken. Fold in dessert topping and nuts. Pour in large pyrex dish or several small molds. Serves 16. Note: To adapt this recipe, use unsweetened pineapple packed in juice, low-calorie gelatin and lowcalorie whipped topping. You might be surprised that this salad has buttermilk in it. The tartness of the buttermilk cuts the really sweet taste of the gelatin. Quick and easy refrigerator rolls (Lillian Aylor) 2 egg whites, slightly beaten 1/2 cup oil 1/2 cup sugar 1 package yeast dissolved in 1/4 cup warm water 1 teaspoon salt 1 cup lukewarm water 4 cups unsifted all-purpose flour or whole wheat flour Stir ingredients together in the order given above.

Roll dough into your favorite shape on a lightly floured board and let rise 2 hours before baking. Bake at 375 degrees F. for 10 minutes. Yield: 3 dozen rolls. Raisin rye bread (Cindy Mahan) 1 package dry yeast 2 cups rye flour 11/2 cups hot tap water (120-130 degrees) 3/4 cup each light and dark raisins, plumped 1 tablespoon molasses 1 tablespoon cooking oil 2 teaspoons salt 1/2 cup warm water (105-115 degrees) 11/2 cups rye flour 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, approximately Glaze: 1 egg, beaten One baking sheet, greased or Teflon In a large bowl combine yeast, 2 cups of rye flour and water. Blend well, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and put in a warm place (80-85 degrees) until the sponge is light and bubbly - approximately 1 1/2 to 2 hours. It can be left longer .(up to two or three days) to improve and strengthen the rye flavor. In the meanwhile, plump the raisins in warm water for about 20 minutes. Drain and set aside. In a small bowl combine molasses, cooking oil, salt and warm water and pour into the sponge. Drop in the raisins. Alternately add about 11/2 cups each of rye and all-purpose flour to the sponge - first with a wooden spoon and then by hand. If the dough is slack and sticky, add 1/4 cup or more white flour. Sprinkle the work surface liberally with flour and turn the dough onto it. Knead until the dough is smooth and elastic. This will be heavier than normal dough because of the high rye content. Put dough back in the bowl, pat the surface with greased fingertips and stretch a piece of plastic wrap tightly across the bowl. Carry the bowl to a warm place (80-85 degrees) and leave until dough doubles in size. Punch down the dough, turn out on the work surface, diving into two pieces. Let rest 5 minutes to relax the dough before shaping either into round loaves, slightly flattened, or into oblong loaves. Place them on a baking sheet. vAJvei ludvts wim wax paper aim return to the warm place to double in size. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Brush loaves with beaten egg just before sliding them into the oven. When the loaves are well borwned and crusty and tapping the bottom crust yields a hard and hollow sound, they are done. Remove the loaves from the oven and place on wire racks to cool before serving, or freezing.

Non-service disability info One of the most misunderstood and little known programs under th< Department of Veteran Affairs is the non-service connected disabilit) pension. The pension is available for wartime veterans who are permanentlj and totally disabled from any disabil ity not related to service. The program, called the Improved Pension Plan, became effective Jan. 1,1979. It is based on a maximum annual rate, reduced dollar by dollar for any family income. As of Dec. 1, 1991, the rate for a single veteran is $616 monthly, a married veteran $807 with an additional increase of $104 for each child. There are provisions also made to increase the amount for veterans who are housebound and need Aid and Assistance. A similar program exists for widows and provides them $413 monthly. If you are a wartime veteran, or the widow of a veteran it could be to your advantage to check into this program.
