Students from kindergarten through the 12th grade displayed all sorts of amazing creations and investigations. Projects in the exploratory division (grades K-5) were judged by the high school physics class. Judges for the junior division (grades 5-8) and senior division (9-12) included administrators and Bcience teachers from both schools as well as numerous community experts, including Diane Wood, Maggje Rogers, Tom Von Fange, Sid Gottlieb, Robert Darby, Greg Robertson, Marion Eastham, Pauli Nichols, Tom Blount, A1 Kellert, Bill Oliver and Lucy Oliver.

Sw SCIENCE FAIR, p. $ -—.V V —iw.wni i \ \ f House, Senate appoint group to end impasse By JEFF NELSON AiCaa Ncwapapcn State Writer RICHMOND—The Virginia House and Senate agreed to disagree on their respective versions of the state budget Feb. 24 and appointed three members of each house to settle the differences over the next week and a half. The House version of the budget tacks another $110 million onto Gov. Wilder’s proposed $28 billion budget while the Senate added nearly twice that much. House members praised the ease with which they were able to amend their money committee’s version of the budget on the House floor. Amendments to the budget have traditionally been handled nearly exclusively by the Appropriations Committee. “This is the first time the House has been able to vote on block amendments to the budget since 1954. It certainly is a good start,” said freshman Del. William Mims (R-Loudoun/Fairfax). The House used its new found freedom to slash the advertising budget of the state Lottery department by $21 million. The House also voted to cut senators’ salaries by $340 per year to match the delegates’ salaries of $17,640 per year. The money saved by the maneuvers is to be spent on education. The House version is likely to be the winner in most of the budget disagreements because it killed a Senate proposal to increase the income tax on the wealthy. That move alone took away $106 million the Senate had added to its version of the budget. Both houses are seeking 2 percent raises for state employees and plan to restore many of the cuts to state agencies included in Wilder’s original budget. Among the agencies likely to get back some of the money cut in the original budget are: • The Virginia Tech-operated Extension Service. • The Virginia Commission for the Arts. • The Center for Innovative Technology. • Mental health and social services agencies.

' ;c Aidotti Ntwgpapera Staff Writer A Virginia tradition continues on Saturday, Feb. 29 as steeplechasing comes to Sperryville for the Rappahannock Hunt Point-to-Point. Held at Thornton Hill Farm on U.S. 522, the full day of racing will begin at 10 a.m. with hunter pace events. Timber and flat races make up the card of eight races (splits are expected). The day’s grand finale will be the ever-popular Jack Bruce Memorial Hound Race. Racing fans can watch horses and their jockeys battle to the finish from atop the hillside at the spectator-friendly course. General admission is $5 and reserved parking is still available. In the featured owner-rider timber race, a test of about 2V-i miles, a top field of seven was attracted, all pursuing Seven Corners series points. Unquestionably, Henry Wood’s Topeador is the one to catch in the headliner. The Chilean-bred horse carried Mr. Wood with distinction last year, when he won. Racing insiders pause, however, to consider rumors of splint-bone problems of the 11-year-old campaigner. Named Timber Horse of the Year with six *91 triumphs, Topeador tuned-up on the flat at Casanova Feb. 22, running an undistinguished eighth in a field of twelve. / EV—tal mwkmmhrfPtrnimm —M coming off a bang-up race at Casanova, and Captain Nevarre looks to be one tough hombre with rider Bay Cockbum. Seven Comers 1987 champion News Special, William Russell owner-rider, may also prove serious competition for the popular Topeador. The ladies timber race is co-featured at Rappahannock and could provide the day’s top finish. Jill Waterman and her Nomoniker ran stride-for-stride with Ready Snodgrass and Tom’s War at Casanova last week. Nomoniker proved strongest at the wire, but Tom’s War was knocking at the winner’s door. Miss Waterman, though, might instead bring out her “hole card” in Worthy Key, who is also entered. Worthy Key was the 1991 foxhunter’s series champion, though he has not run yet this season. Spoilers of a repeat duel in the ladies’ heat include 1991 ladies champion Dawn Dugan on Oliver’s Tiger and Sara Laimbeer on her Courtly Bee. Miss Dugan said that trainer Oliver Brown actually trains his horses over the Rappahannock course. She reasoned that Oliver’s Tiger thus has the tactical advantage of knowing how to handle the tight, right-handed bends. The open timber event over 2Vz miles drew only five entrants, but the field is evenly matched. Standout runners should be Palace Party with Michael Traurig up and Friendly Retreat with Don Yovanovich up. race, will carry a heavy load in this open event, 170 pounds. Friendly Retreat, a CasanoVa winner, also totes 170 pounds but will enjoy the services of crack veteran trainer-rider Yovanovich. In the maiden timber race, Sea Dent, who raced third two weeks ago, and Duke Kahana Moku head the field of nine non-winners. The foxhunter’s timber race also drew nine entrants. Last year’s foxhunter’s timber winner Roman Tent, under then-owner Nicolas Schweitzer, will race for new owner James Whitner. Veteran Harry Wight, who just missed winning at Casanova, has entered his Fire’s Transition in the 2,'A mile 'chase. Two flat races are offered on the full Rappahannock card. In the five-furlong dash, English-bred Lanhydrock with owner William Russell up, may be at a disadvantage over Thornton Hill’s speed-favoring strip. Saturday’s races will have everybody looking skyward to determine which hand mother nature will play. If the weather remains clear and the track fast, it will be hard to pick between multiple winner Lanhydrock and the other 23 entries. The foreign runner won only once in 1991, in the hock-deep mud at the Piedmont Point-to-Point in March, possibly showing a liking for deep going. See HORSE RACES, p. 3 Washington ARB passes changes. to Inn's facade By MARK SCOLFORO Rappahannock News Staff Writer The Town of Washington Architectural Review Board (ARB) approved two changes to the front of The Inn at Little Washington during its monthly meeting Thursday night. Chef and co-owner Patrick O’Connell submitted applications to replace three lights above the front entry way and to install doors on the second-floor porch facing Middle Street, v « * Mr* O’Connell excused himself from the ARB, of which he is a member, to present the two applications before ARB members Eve Willis and Donna Kevis. He brought an example of the brass-and-glass octagonal lights that he plans to put up in place of three ' can-style lights. The application passed 2-0. On the second-floor porch of The Inn, Mr. O’Connell requested permission to install custom-milled louvered bi-folding doors to replace canvas curtains. The curtains allow individual room occupants to isolate a portion of the porch for their own use, if they wish. The doors will serve the same purpose. Mr. O’Connell also said he would paint the doors to match the color of the rest of The Inn. The doors were passed 2-0, contingent on Mr. O’Connell providing dimensions and specifications to the Zoning Office within a week. Wendy Weinberg also made an application to the ARB; her’s was to add a stairwell at the end of a side " porch on The Theatre at Washington, Va. building. At present there are four offices on tha side of the building, and the porch that serves them dead-ends af8m INN FACADE, p. 10 RAA baseball registration The Rappahannock Athletic Association’s annual baseball registration will be held from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Feb. 29 for children ages 6-18 at the Ami88ville Fire Hall, the Flint Hill Fire Hall and Rappahannock High.

'Workspace' gets nod after planners' review By MARK SCOLFORO Rappahannock New* Staff Writer The Rappahannock Planning Commission affixed a number of restrictions to Sally Nash’s request to build a structure on her Sperryville property that would house visiting dancers, then unanimously recommended approval to the Board of Supervisors Wednesday. Ms. Nash said the choreographers who have stayed at her home and dance studio, Workspace for Choreographers, often bring their dancers with them, and she wants to build the new structure for them. In recommending approval for the special exception, County Administrator John McCarthy said that the “retreat,” as it was classified, would be a “good fit for the area, and compatible with the very rural nature of that portion of the county [Route 600 at Jenkins Hollow].” Members of the Planning Commission expressed concern about the number of persons who would stay in the house at one time, the nature of live performances, if any, and the classification of the structure as a “retreat.” Mr. McCarthy said his first impulse was to call the building a guest nouse, but the facts that it was some distance from her home and that it coukl potentially be rented as a sepa rate house both disqualified it from that category. Ms. Nash said it is her intention to deed her home and the proposed building to a 501(C)3 IRS taxexempt foundation she is in the process of setting up, so the new building would probably not be rented separately. The choreographers and dancers who visit Workspace are not charged and stay no more than a month, she said. But some of the details concerning the foundation are still in “a process of development,” Ms. Nash told the planners. Commission member Sharon Pierce said that in her mind, “The only real issue I see is the perfor- * mances . . . and how many people are going to be at the performances.” Mr. McCarthy added that the “construction of the guest house is going to facilitate more performances.” After a discussion about the level of use, Ms. Nash agreed to restrict attendance at performances to no more than 30 people and frequency to no more than four times a year, keep occupancy in the guest house below eight persons and residence there restricted to 80 days at most. She also consented to ban outdoor 8m WORKSPACE, p. 3 ■

Woodward. Vicki Rankin, 21, of Waynesboro, and Howard Beverage, 21, of Staunton, were arrested on the Foster property by Deputy Chris Williams and Trooper Chuck Moore of the State Police. Capt. Jeff Brown interviewed them later that evening and placed formal charges. Two weapons and two deer were confiscated by the Sheriffs Office, Farmers' group meets Director of farmland trust speaks By MARK SCOLFORO Rappahannock N«w» SUIT Writer Members of the Rappahannock Fanners’ Association filled the Rappahannock Elementary School gym Friday night for the group’s second annual meeting. Besides the delicious meal of county-raised roast beef, RFA members also heard a talk by Ralph Grossi, national director of the American Farmland Trust, the group selected by the RFA to conduct a pending survey of county farms and farmers. Mr. Grossi said that his organization hopes to use the information from the Rappahannock survey to perform similar services to other counties in Virginia. The first part of the survey will be conducted in the coming weeks by telephone. The second part will follow later in the year. The evening began with remarks by RFA president James F. Massie Jr., who outlined the many activities undertaken by the 180-member group during its second year of operations: the Livestock Club, the Farm Show, the hay donations for Clarke County farmers, land-use advocacy, and a lecture at the county library last month. He stressed that a major goal of the RFA has and will continue to be supporting the county’s land-use taxation policy. “It’s vitally impor tant that they [the supervisors] support land use in this county,” he said. He also encouraged RFA members, both producers and non-producers, to express their concerns and ideas about farming in Rappahannock and the RFA’s activities. “I feel we don’t have an open line of communication with our members,” he said. “We need to hear from them—good and bad.” “Communication is vital to any organization, and I want to express to you all that this is your organization,” he said. Mr. Grossi’s half-hour talk focused on the American Farmland Trust and its study of Rappahannock farming, which he said will be a “pilot project.” He told the crowd, “You are not alone in facing land-use issues,” and said Rappahannock’s strict agricultural zoning has held up for more than a few years—a “remarkable record,” he said. But he warned them not to feel safe, that a 3-2 vote could reverse what many of them have worked for. The RFA also distributed a questionnaire that explored possible support for a farmers’ market and for allowing slude application on farmland. The RFA has 100 producer members and 80 non-producer members.

Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Senior Ryan Welch goes for the block. Central ends season for basketball team By MARKSCOLFORO Rappahannock New* Staff Writer FRONT ROYAL—Despite a third-quarter comeback effort that erased what had been an 18point Central High lead, the Rappahannock varsity basketball team was eliminated in the first round of Bull Run District Tournament play Tuesday night. Playing at Warren County High in Front Royal, the Panthers went way behind early, losing star forward Michael Williams in the first five minutes because he collected two technical fouls. The Central Falcons hit the court running, building firstquarter leads of 17-2 and 24-6 on strong outside shooting and a fast-break offense that found Rappahannock flat-footed. Rappahannock Coach Gary Leake went to his bench early in the game, and the underclassmen responded, cutting the deficit to 36-27 at the half. In the second half the Panthers were able to tie it at 43, but Central, led by standout forward Jered Hoover, a 6-3 senior, ended strongly by hitting a string of free throws. Final score: Central 70, Rappahannock 51. Jason Henry led Rappahannock in scoring with 16 points; he also had eight steals and eight assists. Ryan Welch had nine points, nine rebounds and four blocked shots; Kevin Jolliffe and Damian Muriel had six polints each and James Roy had eight points and eight rebounds. Central had been ranked first in the state for single-A much of the season, and beat Rappahannock in regular district play twice this year. Rappahannock finsished with six wins this year. Central’s win Tuesday increased its record to 16-1. Williams ended the season leading the Panthers in scoring with 13.1 points per game. Henry was second with 11.8, Jolliffe averaged 10.3 and Roy 9.7.

Also sure to be a winner in the budget debates are local schools and libraries. Both houses would increase the amount of money going to school districts, particularly for atrisk children. Gov. Wilder restored much of the money cut from funding to local school districts over the last two years but did not add any new money for at-risk children. Boosting state aid for at-risk students is one avenue by which the state is attempting to address disparity in education. Both houses also would return some of the $10 million Gov. Wilder proposed cutting from the state’s share of local library funding. The six-member conference committee will meet, traditionally in near secrecy, until March 5 to hammer out exactly which department gets how much. The full Assembly will then have two days to approve the budget and send it to the governor for his signature. Though the income tax increase failed this week, both houses did agree to impose one new tax and defer one tax exemption. The Senate and House have agreed to have the state begin charging sales tax on liquor sales. Both houses also agreed to continue collecting sales tax on non-prescription drugs for at least two more years. Bonds held up by Assembly The Virginia House and Senate opted, Feb. 24, to strangle the last breathing proposals to issue general obligation bonds for construction projects throughout the state. Two conflicting bond packages quickly escalated into a confrontation and deadlock between House and Senate majority leaders last week after the Senate Finance Committee killed a $1.5 billion House-approved bond package. In retaliation, the House voted down a series of bond proposals totaling more than $613 million introduced by Gov. L. Douglas Wilder and passed by the Senate. “Politics is the art of compromise and there was no compromise on this. I’m going to go home with an empty feeling (without a bond package),” said Sen. Charles Waddell (DLoudoun/Fairfax). Gov. Wilder, in a press conference Feb. 25, announced that he is working with both the Senate and House leadership to revive his own bonds package. This could be done by reconsidering the failed bond packages in the House but would require more than a simple majority of votes on the floor to do so. Gov. Wilder said he sees no need to include transportation in any bond package. Northern Virginia legislators say they cannot support a bond package without one but may be mollified as talks between the Assembly leaders and Wilder continued Feb. 25. The call for a bond issue this year, especially for construction at colleges and universities, has been supported by both houses of the General Assembly and Wilder. State studies predict a 70,000 student increase in Virginia colleges and universities by the year 2000. The House bond package incorporated nearly all of the Senate package but added $300 million for road construction. The House package also called for a statewide referendum on a one-half percen? sales tax increase to pay for the bonds and provide more than $100 million annually to fund Wilder’s disparity in education plan. Debate in the House was focused into a battle of wills between House Majority leader C. Richard Cranwell (D-Vinton) and Senate Majority leader Hunter Andrews. “If you vote for this (the Senate package) you are abrogating your responsibility to the Senate Finance Committee (headed by Andrews),” Del. Cranwell told his colleagues in the House. Sen. Andrews masterminded the defeat of the House plan by not allowing the Finance Committee to vote on the measure before the deadline for action on revenue bills.

Excellent!” This was a sincere expression of appreciation from one of the professional judges at the Lion’s Club Bland Music program Sunday afternoon. We must wholeheartedly concur. Eleven student musicians entertained an audience filled with family, friends, faculty and fellow students in the high school auditorium at the successful consummation of this years Lion’s Bland Music Competition. It was much more than a contest. It was a real “live” concert that shared talent and music that held the attention and stimulated enthusiastic applause. The judges on the distinguished panel said they were pleasantly surprised at the quality of performance. Two of the students premiered original compositions: Jason Fox sang his attractive song “Little Man” and accompanied himself on guitar; Matthew Payne, the youngest musician at 13 years, performed “When I Look Through That Window” on piano. We applaud their creativity and would eryoy hearing more from them in the future. The first place “gold” for vocalist went to Jennifer Foster, last year’s Bland winner, who applied her clear soprano voice to “Bring Him Home.” First place for instrumentalist was awarded to Diana Wise for her skillful rendition of Grieg’s “An den Fruhling.” Silver in the two categories was earned by Alice Reeve, alto, who sang “On My Own,” another winner from last year; and by Matthew Payne, the eighth grade composer. Bronze third place awards went to Heather Rossiter, soprano, who sang “Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again,” and to Teresa Hudson, who played “Bergermask” by Koepke, unaccompanied, on the flute. Most other songs were accompanied very skillfully by Melinda Russell at the piano. Certificates and prizes were awarded to these young musicians at the regular dinner meeting, hosted by the Lion’s, on Wednesday evening at the Washington VFD. Official Lions Club Certificates of Rappahannock Newt Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Jason Fox played and sang an original composition, ‘Little Man,* at the Bland Contest Sunday. Participation will be given for "recognized musical ability” to all students who contributed so much talent and effort to the success of the program; to Shannon Cordani, soprano, who sang "Somewhere Out There,” to Tracy Hitt, soprano, for "Music of the Night,” to Melanie Moffett, soprano, for “Castle on a Cloud,” to Emily Pierce, soprano, for “Vergebliches Standschen” by Brahms and to Jason Fox for his song “Little Man.” To all who were involved with this excellent student performance, our respect, gratitude and a very “well done.” Workspace Continued from page 1 performances. Dancer Sharon Wyrrick said that she has used Workspace before and found it very valuable. She was the. only person to speak for or against the special exception. The Planning Commission’s other business item was consideration of a special exception for Dr. and Mrs. B.L. Rish’s Fox Creek subdivision.

'■ i A.A : ■ A’ A/> wAJi ,* A: 1 ■ State rankings The uproar over funding construction of a new school building goes to the one government issue that most voters would say is at the top of their list: maintaining a reasonable tax rate while still providing basic educational services. On one side, those against the building cite skyrocketing real estate taxes in Rappahannock that threaten to kick them off their land. The other side says that the county’s historical unwillingness to adequately fund education is a short-sighted and outdated attitude. The Virginia Education Association, the state’s de facto teacher’s union, has just released a publication that provides hard numbers on the state’s educational spending for 1989-90. "Virginia’s Educational Disparities’’ is comprehensive ranking of Virginia’s 138 school divisions on numerous criteria, and we find some of the data very, very disturbing. The one figure that county residents are sure to dispute is the most unsettling: Rappahannock ranks eighth in the state in "ability to pay,” which is determined by 1989 real estate and public service corporation values. In “effort” of payment, defined as the amount of local funds expended for education for every $100 of taxable property value, Rappahannock ranks not ■■ inftth , W tbftt was before the most recent assessment, Which increased that taxable property value 80 percent. But the county’s taxpayers are kicking in 52 percent of the school system budget, 26th highest in comparison with how much of other county and city school division budgets is locally funded. The state only contributes 33 percent of the school budget here; 109 other school divisions have a greater portion of their education expenditures picked up by Richmond. Rappahannock ranked 117th in average salary of instructional personnel, $25,459, and 115th in teachers’ salaries, $24,947. Yet this county was eighth in Virginia in density of instructional personnel: There are 83.6 positions per 1,000 students (the state average is 68.8). The study also ranks the percentage of graduates who continue their education. After leaving Rappahannock High, only 43.5 percent of graduates stay in some form of school, 125th in the state, or 13th from last. The good news is that the drop-out rate here is also near the bottom. The VEA report should be examined by every member of the School Board and Board of Supervisors prior to studying this year’s budget. We have misgivings about going forward with a middle school at this time, but the need for greater school division funding seems clear. v> \r PRESIDENTIAL TIMBER IN N. VIRGINIA. The time is now to set farm goals By JEANIE McNEAR Last Friday evening I was fortunate to attend the second annual meeting of the Rappahannock Farmers’ Association (RFA) for dinner and dancing, music with the Freestate Ramblers, and fellowship with fellow farming folk and other residents of our county who Waftt to see farming preserved and the rural character and pastoral beauty of Rappahannock maintained in years to come. Everyone attending was asked to complete a questionnaire dealing with the RFA’s vision of Rappahannock two decades hence in 2012. We were treated next to an excellent talk by Ralph Grossi, president of American Farmland Trust. Afterward Col. Dale Metzinger, a longtime county resident and member of the audience, felt moved to stand and praise the new Rappahannock Farmers’ Association and encourage its membership to work toward its goals. Sunday afternoon I was fortunate indeed again, this time to find an empty seat at the National Theater in Washington, D.C. to see the intensely moving drama “Man of La Mancha” about the quest of Don Quixote. People see or hear in its most powerful hit song, “The Impossible Dream,” what they need to in its stirring and noble message of hope. Sophisticates may sneer at it but not the audience— they overwhelmingly loved it, myself included. I was personally reminded again of the goals of the Rappahannock Farmers’ Association: • To preserve the county’s farmland. • To promote the economic viability of its agriculture. • To encourage only that developmental growth which is compatible with farmland preservation and agriculture. I, too, salute the efforts and quest of this new organization and challenge all county residents, farmers and nonfarmers, to remember the reason why they chose/choose to make their homes here and to watch and work to see that Rappahannock keep its rural qualities alive and well. I hope and pray RFA’s vision of Rappahannock in the year 2012 is not an unrealistic impossible dream. Cervantes’ message of Don Quixote is almost 400 years old, after all, and going strong as ever. I encourage Rappahannock residents to ask themselves what their vision for 2012 would be. (Jeanie McNear lives in Gid Brawn Hollow and is a member of the Rappahannock Farmers' Association. —Ed.) Letters to the Editor Arts are under siege To the Editor: I read with great sadness in the Washington Post of the resignation of John Frohnmayer as chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts. Apparently, he was forced from office by the president’s handlers, who were afraid that Patrick Buchanan might score some political points by attacking the Endowment and President Bush’s appointee, Mr. Frohnmayer. The arts, and they who stand for freedom of expression, have been under attack in this country for some time now. It is not really about funding for the arts or one’s definition of artistic merit or obscenity, although that’s where the battle lines have been drawn. It’s really about our values as a society. In his staff meeting to announce his resignation, Mr. Frohnmayer summed it up clearly, “I leave with the belief that this eclipse of the soul will soon pass and with it the lunacy WW artists as “enstmes amt ideas as demons.” Artists and ideas as the enemies of society—a chilling thought. I came of age in the ’60s. A confusing time at best, but a time when being an artist was a noble profession. For it was the artists who gave us hope and a vision of something more enduring than the buck in this land of the bottom line. Now we live in a time that suffers from a great callousness of the heart. It is a time when money and power are what are valued. It is a time of plague and of dead poets. A time when the dream has been revealed to be a nightmare. So let’s shoot the messenger. The Post quoted Republican presidential candidate Mr. Buchanan as calling the NEA “the upholstered playpen of the arts and crafts auxiliary of the Eastern liberal establishment.” Another critic stated that the NEA should be dismantled, adding that “we don’t have a national endowment for the rodeo or a national endowment for scuba divers.” He’s right, we don’t. We do however, have ^National Endowment for Con Artists\ Crooks and Merchants of Greed. Ht’s called the savings and loan bailout. And there are a bunch more of those endowments that cater to the greedy and the powerful. I assure you these endowments cost each of us a lot more than the 22 cents per capita we will spend in Virginia next year on the arts. I am struck by the paradox that I experience living in this county while living in this country. Last weekend, as part of Ki Theatre’s Exchange series, I performed some of my music that was inspired by this community, by the land around it and the people within it. I was moved and encouraged by this exchange with the community to find that this land and these lives that give image to my work are in turn nourished by that work. In a small way it was like the farmer, taking from the earth and then replenishing—part of the great cycle of giving and taking that has gone on in healthy communities. I imagine Mr. Frohnmayer must feel some of this same baffling paradox as he shuttles back and forth between his front line job in Washington, D.C. and his weekend home here in Rappahannock County. Mr. Frohnmayer stated that he expects to work “in the private foundation legal world for the growth and enrichment of our society—for quality art, for less hate and for a generosity of spirit that allows us to live with our differences in real community.” William Butler Yeats said it well: i “We make out of the quarrel with others rhetoric, but out of the quarrel with ourselves, poetry.” Mr. Frohnmayer made poetry out of his leaving. I am afraid that our politicians have made rhetoric out of our poetry. For that we are all cursed and with little hope. Hope does come, though. It comes from the knowledge of this small place—Rappahannock County. Here it seems possible to participate in a community that respects the land and values the arts and education. In our small way, we can work to build a rich artistic community locally no matter what the plague of ignorance that rages around us. Perhaps Mr. Frohnmayer might care to join us. PAUL REISLER Trapezoid Ki Theatre Washington, Va. 'Dead as a mackeral' ^Wthe Editorr* f • • f Concerning the charges that Dr. William Lynn’s academic qualifications are questionable, it is hard to see what purpose is served by this sort of character assassination. The fact remains, Dr. Lynn ran an exemplary school, probably the equivalent of the well known British “public” schools, and many scores of young people were abundantly prepared for later life in the process. We have heard this over and over again. Clearly, the Rappahannock News article on this sordid controversy demonstrates that the age of “chivalry,” i.e., sportsmanship, is dead as a mackeral. When a fellow is dead and gone, some people think that it is time, if not to respect his memory, at least to leave it alone. SALLY L. SHARP GEORGE H. SHARP Washington, Va. 'With horror and disgust' To the Editor: It was with horror and disgust that I read your article on the suit being brought against Wakefield Country Day School, my mother Pamela Lynn, and my grandmother Clydetta Lynn. The article describes a suit whose entire purpose appears to be the emotional harassment of my family and the degradation of its hard earned achievements. Particularly disturbing are the allegations that my father, Bill Lynn, fabricated his credentials and had people address him as “Doctor.” Because they have no bearing on the suit (and are patently untrue), these allegations appear to be the desperate attempt by a vindictive rival to shore up its failing credibility by casting aspersions on a dead man who is unable to defend himself. The supreme irony of the whole nasty mess is that they claim to espouse and teach the educational program of the same man whose educational background they denigrate. If they truly believe their own allegations will they take the twofaced approach of claiming the 1972 founding date? Will they continue to say that they are the inheritors and teachers of my father and mother’s immensely successful classical program? In a way I suppose that I can almost thank them for making these allegations as it forces them to forever separate their school from my father’s (and my own) name. As an aside I would like to point out that if they truly had any memory or knowledge of my father they would know that he always actively discouraged people from calling him “Doctor” out of deference to the memory of his own father, Dr. William Lynn Sr. They would also know that any charges of the unlawful enrichment of my family are ridiculous; my father did not even take a salary until the last five years of his life. For all. those years of work he took home only $55,000 total. There is one more inconsistency in the article. At the end of the eleventh paragraph it states that the “staff and parents at Wakefield-Marshall have said that moving from Huntly has been worth the considerable sacrifice”; you failed to point out in your article that in this very suit they also seek readmittance onto the property in Huntly. If they are so happy in Marshall, why do they ' want the Huntly property so badly? My own guess is that they are tired of paying $50 a day to rent their gymnasium in Marshall and want to reacquire the very same gymansium which they are suing my mother for building. It is unfortunate that in their desperation to discredit my family they must trample the reputation of a dead man. I trust that those who knew my father are well aware of the absurdity of these charges. It is a shame, however, that those who did not know him must now be forever misinformed as to his moral character. To me and many others he will remain a great man who has opened doors and given me many opportunities which I might otherwise never have had. MATTHEW LYNN Washington, Va. Diapers were the worst To the Editor: My husband and I didn’t spend our Sunday afternoon the way the typical Rappahannock County resident might, and after reading my letter, I think you will agree. We ventured out down our hollow’s dirt road with rubber gloves, plastic trash bags and a determination to have our road look a little better, by picking up trash that was becoming a great eyesore, to us at least. We had planned to pick up the usual: bottles, cans, paper, etc. What we now know is what the etc. was, disposable diapers, some put in bags and some just thrown from the window, please note that these had been used. We picked up trash alongside the road from our house for approximately one half-mile and back again. In that stretch of road we were unlucky enough to find three of our diaper foe’s. What I hope to accomplish with this letter is that whoever threw these out will feel guilty enough to not do it again in the ftiture, and if they don’t maybe the next person will think twice before they do it. ELLEN O. PULLEN Washington, Va. Cruel and irresponsible To the Editor It was gratifying to see in'the last issue of the Rappahannock News photos of dogs available for adoption at the Rappahannock Shelter. It is very important that your readers realize how many dogs are abandoned by irresponsible and, in fret, cruel people. One wonders which action is worse: to “dump” puppies unable to live without protection, or to get rid of a faithful companion animal because he has become too old? People who do that are treating a living, trusting creature as a broken tool to be thrown on the garbage heap. The photos in your paper have helped the Rappahannock Animal Welfare League (R.A.W.L.), in several instances, to find owners for these discarded innocents. We hope photos from the shelter will be featured regularly. FRANCINE D. NADLER Rappahannock Animal Welfare League Board of Directors Washington, Va. Trail entrance is closed To the Editor: We sincerely regret having to close that portion of the Big Devil Stairs Trail that crosses our property in Harris Hollow. This was never an existing trail or right of way. Years ago we opened a logging road into the area to remove logs, wood, and locust post. After that a few hikers started using the old road to reach the park. However, recently the volume of hikers has increased dramatically. With the increased use, many problems have developed. People no longer stay on the trail. They trespass all over our property, camping anywhere they choose, littering, building fires, and releasing their dogs, which chase livestock or wildlife. Vehicles are constantly blocking our gates. Parking has been a problem. This has also been an entrance for hunters, trappers, and people looking for ginseng and mushrooms. These items are not usually found in the road. Our final and most important reason for closing this access is the fact that someone may be hurt or injured while crossing our property. There are many ways a person could get hurt, such as: stepping on a rusty nail around the old buildings, falling in livestock ponds, being injured by livestock. There are always cows with young calves and bulls in the area. Neither take too kindly to strangers in bright clothing. There’s the possibility someone could become ill from eating fruits, nuts, berries, or mushrooms that have been sprayed with pesticides or herbicides, even though it has been applied properly and according to Environmental Protection Agency guidelines. We can no longer leave our tractors unattended even for a lunch break. It’s so easy for someone to turn the drivewheel on a mower and cut off their companion’s fingers. The public can still reach Big Devil Stairs via Harris Hollow Trail, (Old Brown town Road), or Mount Marshall fire road at the end of Route 625. 9 Our decision is final. In today’s society the liability issue can no longer be ignored. JOHN M. CLARK Jr. Washington, Va. JOHN M. CLARK Sr. Sperryville

Her application "WwM' ancwttM '■ onto the Main Street side of the building. Building a stairway and handrail as well as moving some gas tanks a few feet were both passed unanimously by the ARB. According to board chairman Donna Kevis, the application also mentioned a footpath, but she said the ARB could not determine exactly what was being asked for, and as Mrs. Weinberg was not present, that part of the application was not acted upon. In other business, the ARB gave Newbill Miller permission to remove a chestnut fence that immediately surrounds his home and for Mr. O’Connell to paint shuttfers, trim and clapboard on the old Byrd Jones house on Gay Street cream, light green and tea. The ARB was also updated on the status of town streetlights. Potomac Edison has now agreed to allow the town to pick a mutually agreeable alternative to the power company’s fixture. The Lighting Committee has chosen its fixture, as well as a back-up.
