Increased budget voted as session ends in flurry By JEFF NELSON NtmiMn Btaia Wrtt.r RICHMOND-The Virginia General Aseembly passed a $28 billion two-year state budget March 7, after amending it to include $80 million for educational disparity and restoring cuts to several state agencies. The action was among a wave of activity in the capital before the session was adjourned. Many Republicans voted against the budget in both the House and Senate, saying their “no” vote was a protest against the budgeting process. The budget compromise between conflicting House and Senate versions of Gov. L. Douglas Wilder’s original budget was hammered out by a six-member conference committee comprised of three Democrats from each house. Republicans, buoyed by their increased numbers in the Assembly following last November’s election, persuaded House Speaker Thomas Moss, D-Norfolk, to increase the size of the committee and include Republicans. The Senate killed that proposal. The final version of the budget passed with little fanfiure or debate. Gov. Wilder commended the lawmakers for adding more than $90 millioq to the original budget “without a general tax increase. ” y Rappahannock schools get $24,033 more than the original budget proposed. The county gets $1,513,806 in ’92-’93 and • $1,549,352 the following year. The extra money for the budget was accomplished by lowering the state payment into the Virginia employees’ retirement system, transfering money from the state lottery and defering for two years a tax break that was to halt the imposition of sales tax on nonprescription drugs beginning this July. Gov. Wilder pushed the drug tax break and threatened to veto House and Senate bills designed to defer the tax break. Gov. Wilder changed his mind on the veto threat late last week, telling the Assembly budget writers the deferment was fine if the more than $30 million generated was used for disparity. The disparity plan is designed to boost the state payment for students at risk of dropping out of school. This was defined as students with mental disabilities, who take English as a second language or whose parents are on federal or state financial assistance. The disparity plan does not hurt the wealthier counties but the bulk of the new disparity spending goes to poorer school districts. ; Vi V , • ’; i '}* . Scaled-down road bond package The General Assembly, last week, passed a scaled down version of a transportation bonds package that will be put before the voters in November. 1 XI, • 8m ASSEMBLY, p. A-f 4 State school funds for county dwindle By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Although the budget passed by the General Assembly last Saturday was supposed to include an additional $80 million for education statewide, Rappahannock will get no increase. In fact, School Superintendent David Gangel told the School Board Tuesday night, state aid for education in Rappahannock was cut nearly $12,000. He said the state had estimated the county would get an additional $5,900 in sales tax revenues but added, “I don’t have faith in the sales tax estimate.” The county government will be required to contribute an additional $8,200 for education, and the total budget was increased by $2,800 over the budget Dr. Gangel presented last week. On the expenditure side the budget was also increased $2,800. Funds for administrators’ salaries and fringe benefits were decreased, reflecting the fact that $800 rather than $1,300 is needed to give administrators the same benefits for master’s degrees as teachers. On the other hand, funds for services to buildings were increased $6,300 to work on controls for heat at the elementary school. Dr. Gangel reported that one firm estimated it would cost almost $18,000 to repair the heating controls. Nearly half the thermostats are not working. Some classrooms become so hot that teachers open the windows during the winter. Dr. Gangel also found that the elementary school had used fewer gallons of heating oil during the last five See BUDGET, p.A-6 Space use examined at RCES By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New, Staff Writer The School Board members toured the elementary school Tuesday night and received a detailed description of what programs are offered in each space. They heard that one of the former storage closets across' from the cafeteria is used for in-school suspension, physical therapy, private testing and work space for school volun- . teers. One of the temporary classrooms located behind the >' school will have to be divided * to provide for an additional * special education classroom. ! Of the two rooms that could be converted to regular classroom use, one is used by four different teachers for art instruction and also for chorus for fifth through seventh grades. The other is used already as a homeroom and for science instruction one period a day. It is also used for art instruction two days a week, for occasional testing and for math instruction for fifth and sixth graders one day a week. Sm SCHOOL BOARD, p. A*6 Softball coach has high hopes for coming year By MARKSCOLFORO Rappahannock New* Staff Writer After last year’s 12-4 finish and trip to the four-team Bull Run District Tournament, the Rappahannock High varsity softball team exceeded many people’s expectations. Not content to rest on their accomplishments, however, this year’s squad is “the most coachable and the most positive group ... of all the teams I’ve had,” according to Coach Renee Leake. She may have cause for optimism. First baseman Sherron Boddie, a senior, and pitcher Susan Payne, a junior, are both coming off being voted second-team all-Bull Run District. And the Lady Panthers also return third baseman Angela Pullen, another senior, and two junior starters: left fielder Lori Par store and shortstop Emma Swatman. Swatman was honorable mention all-Bull Run last season. Four sophomores are also on the team after starting last year as' freshmen: catcher-pitcher Dietrich Beaver, second-team all-district center fielder Marcia Freeman, DH and outfielder Bonnie Jewell and right fielder Leah Marlett. Add to all that experience five fireshmen: outfielders Janet Hitt, Amy Payne and Lisa Pullen; second baseman Susan Jewell and second baseman Cyndi Welch (the only freshman projected to start). Winning 12 games last spring was a new school record, but the coach said hitting was identified as a team weakness, and so far this year, she has been trying to improve it. Sm SPORTS, p.

Teachers attend conference Five English teachers from Wakefield School in Marshall attended the Virginia Association of Teachers of English (VATE) winter regional conference at the Loudoun County High School in Leesburg. Attending the conference were faculty from grades seven to twelve. These included Lee Buratti of Haymarket, Julie Duggan of The Plains, Janet Jones of Edinburg, Tutt Stapp-Harris of Huntly and Suzanne Wolfe of Front Royal. The topic of this year’s conference was “The Energy of English: The Variety and Vitality of Communication.” Among the workshops geared to middle and upper school concerns were such topics as interdisciplinary studies of Arthurian legends, collaborative learning in the writing conference, found poetry, and using computers in process writing. Two enriching speakers provided inspiration for the teachers representing members of NATE (the local affiliate of VATE): Henry Taylor, the Pulitzer Prize winning poet, read from his work “The Flying Change," and Betty Jean Steinshouser performed her onewoman show, “Willa Cather Speaks.” Faculty member Janet Jones said that she thoroughly enjoyed the conference. It was an opportunity for teachers to compare notes and examine different teaching methods. Ms. Jones was questioned about the success of having students role-play characters from their reading and literature assignments. This week members of her seventh grade English class each posed as their favorite character from “Ivanhoe.” Ms. Jones commented that with assignments requiring students to act out portions of the literature that they read, the students had a better understanding of the works. Watching the class role-play characters from “Ivanhoe,” it was evident that the students enjoyed the book and the assignment. Alex Kelly of Castleton and Jed Davies of Warrenton were a superb Black Knight replete with chain mail, swords, and black capes. Each pulled passages from the book to describe this mysterious knight yet to reveal his identity.

Sunny Slope: Dream becomes a reality By LISA G. CURRIE Rappahannock New* SUIT Writer Wilma Burke’s lifetime dream has come true. The state licensed Sunny Slope Retirement Community, a 12-bed facility located on the outskirts of Flint Hill, this year. Its owners and operators are Mrs. Burke and her husband James, Flint Hill residents. “Since I was a young child I’ve wanted to do this,” said Mrs. Burke, sitting in a cozy room in the huge Victorian home which looks out across the hills and valleys of Rappahannock County. “As a child in school I would go from home to home to care for the elderly,” she said, a faraway look coming into her soft eyes. The tall mother of six said that over 10 years ago she and her husband began looking for property to build a retirement community. Property was purchased but building denied by the planning commission in Rockingham County, Mrs. Burke’s homeplace. Her dream lived on. When living in Sperryville, she tended to elderly neighbors near their country store, F.T. Valley Grocery located on Route 231. One day she noticed the old Chandler property just off U.S. 522 was for sale, but Mrs. Burke said she didn’t even bother to look, just imagining the price beyond their budget. In April 1991, they bought the property—25 of the 63 acres and the house—for $295,000. Soon after the purchase, the couple began renovating the 10-plusroom house with new furnaces, new plumbing, new wiring, a sprinkler system and fire alarms. Following state regulations for icvu ciucia tuiiuuuiutics, uic installed bedside lighting and bells at each bedside. A paved drive circles the grand home. A new well was dug. “We had to re-do all the walls,” she said, pointing to new wallboard and paint. Today the white walls are freshly painted with solid oak picture railing trimming each room. The added ceiling fans in each spacious room reflect in the gleam of the polished solid oak floors. The huge windows are draped with colorful fabric offering a glimpse of the countryside beyond. Residents live in the downstairs while the upstairs offers apartment accommodations for the Burkes. The downstairs has two full baths and one half-bath, a spacious kitchen, five bedrooms and one dinLongwood student earns 4.0 average Elaine Jessica McCabe of Flint Hill earned a perfect 4.0 grade-point average during the fall semester at Longwood College in Farmville.

Long front windows allow the sun to stretch across the room, opening onto a porch that runs the full length of the house. “We decided what we wanted and we hired an architect,” she said, adding that in addition to inside renovations, a corridor with two additional baths, bedrooms, and a basement area were added to the home. Trying hard to keep with the Victorian style of the home, the new rooms offer large windows and plenty of floor space. Railing around the outside porch was added; an additional exit from the Burke’s upstairs home apartment was tacked on and an additional ramp for handicapped residents was a must. At present, the Burkes care for four residents, sharing duties with Sylvia Steel and their daughter, Teresa Eppard. ‘Teresa helps during the day and when she is not working” at Automotive Industries in Strasburg, said her mother, adding the young woman helps with paper work and errands—“a real go-fer.” Ms. Steel works daytimes, relieving Mr. and Mrs. Burke from duties at the home to attended to duties at their store. The Burkes are not newcomers to the county and their general store is much relied-upon by neighbors and travelers alike. Moving from Front Royal, where they owned a sandwich shop, the family relocated to Sperryville and purchased the store in 1983. Work in the retail has prepared the couple for whatever requirements the retirement community may bring. And being parents to a large family has prepared the Burkes for caring for several more in the house. Adding large freezers and additional washing machines were part of the requirements that 12 guests mandate. Running the home is “a lot of common sense" said Mrs. Burke. “As far as taking care of people, you just make them feel like family and give them love and care like you BLEU ROCK INN V.kVt BONJOUR , eta A Bientot J Hours Dinner Wed. to Sat. 5:30-9.30 Sunday: Brunch 11303:00 Dinner 530-9:00 Wednesday & Thursday 4 Course Menu $19.95 Changes Weekly & Regular Menu US 211 Washington, Va. 703-987-3190 WE'LL GIVE YOU $75 TO RETIRE YOUR OLD MOWER.

Sunny Slope aims to please each resident by providing all the luxuries of home such as comfortable wing-backed chairs for viewing television, activities, games, nourishing meals three times daily and comfortable beds in spacious bedrooms. “I’ll be happy when we are filled,” said Mrs. Burke. While Sunny Slope Retirement Community does not take residents not able to exit the building on their own, or non-ambulatory-wheelchair residents, Mrs. Burke said she is not selective and some residents are there on auxiliary grants from the state. The cost for care at the home depends on residents’ ability to care for themselves. “I look at each individual case,” said Mrs. Burke.

The topic of the essay contest was “Famous American Women of the American Revolution. ” Wesley picked Molly Corbin, and the title of his essay was “Margaret Corbin, a Woman and a Soldier." Wesley’s essay tied for first place in the tri-county contest; the counties were Culpeper, Rappahannock and Madison. A tea was held Sunday, March 8 in Culpeper, given by the Culpeper chapter of the D.A.R., and Wesley received a metal and a certificate. The next step is the statewide competition. We wish him a lot of luck. If you have a chance, stop by the front lobby at Rappahannock Elementary and look at the wonderful octopus’ garden made by the sixth grade art students taught by Lilo Wolfe. They were working on unreal, underwater, sea worlds. First they listened to music called “The Octopus’s Garden,” then they made models with paper mache. What a great job. Margaret Lee’s fifth and sixth grade reading classes are holding caucuses for the presidential election. Seven students in each class volunteered to be the candidates. They are reading newspaper articles on the candidates’ positions on im IT’S ELEMENTARY What's Happening at RCES by Diana Corbin portant issues. Each candidate will give his campaign speech to the class. Other members of the class are doing research on the candidates in preparation for their state’s vote to be held after hearing the candidates’ speeches. The following students are candidates: Fifth grade: George Bush, Dax Carney; Pat Buchanan, Erin Platt; Jerry Brown, Falon Banker; Bill Clinton, David Yowell; Tom Harkin, Mia Grisholm; Bob Kerrey, Amanda Brown; Paul Tsongas, Lauren Sharp. Sixth grade: Bush, Jessica Lawyer; Buchanan, Todd Tomlinson; Brown, Wesley Welk; Clinton, A1 Payne; Harkin, John Paolicelli; Kerrey, Tim Deal; Tsongas, Mike Baader. What a terrific class project.

Faced with dwindling revenues and a 10 percent increase in expenditures for next year, they’re playing Santa Claus by floating bonds to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars. Virginia’s bond rating is 'high, but given the size and scope of the bond referendums we’ll be voting on this year, it probably won’t be for long. The transportation bond, which would be financed by a two-cents-a-gallon gasoline tax, will go before the voters in July. It has the greatest chance of passing, as the Commonwealth’s' citizens have always endorsed improving our roads. Then, in October, the governor’s pet project will be on the ballot, asking for hundreds of millions to finance capital projects in higher education, mental health and public recreation. Floating bonds in this economic climate has both good and bad aspects. Interest rates are low, which is good, but the future is uncertain, which makes adding any financial burden to the state risky at best. And any fiscal solution that depends on the voters to tax themselves is on flimsy ground, at. best. The $443 million road package is designed to benefit, largely, the counties and cities of Northern Virginia. The cost: $70 million a year in new taxes. Whether the other five million Virginians will want to swallow the cost remains to be seen. Proponents and opponents of the bonds will have plenty of time to make their case before the voters get the last word. ^Ve’ll be listening, but advocates will have to state some pretty compelling arguments before we can get beyond the sense of apprehension created by Richmond in the opening days of this session—you remember, when they were threatening the Extension Service, public library spending, the Virginia Commission for the Arts, school finances, etc. Was it all a ruse to push through unpalatable tax hikes via the bond route? Very possibly. We urge voters to follow the fates of these bond issues very closely. If those elected to govern want to abdicate their authority, the voters will have to take up the slack. 1 OFF TO A GOOD START ? HtY; I thought WE HAD PRACTICE TODAY ?// RAPPAHANNOCK LITTLE LEAGUE "■ear" VWElL TRY AGAIN SATURDAY, MAR. 14™ .etters to tl itor Wood was instrumental To the Editor I'd like to express my sincere appreciation to Del. Jerry Wood, DRappahannock, for his leadership role on House Bill #71. The citizens of the 31st District can be proud of the excellent work Del. Wood has done in his first term. H.$. 71 is a consumer bill calling for a one-line prescription drug form that will allow for the dispensing of generic drugs unless specifically requested otherwise by the physicians. The American Association of Retired Persons, which endorsed the bill, has calculated the savings to consumers in the first year alone is approximately $70 million. This bill will be especially helpful to senior citizens on fixed incomes. Del. Wood’s testimony before numerous committees was factual and instrumental in making this bill a reality. DEL. SHIRLEY F. COOPER Yorktown Facts are elementary To the Editor: On Saturday, Feb. 29, the PTO took a tour of Rappahannock County Elementary School’s facilities. Despite the fact that many parents are in the school every day to drop off our children, we have little opportunity to get the overview which the tour afforded us. Among the sights we saw and the facts we learned are: 1. The office of the guidance counselor, which measures 16-by-8, is used for groups of two-to-eight children, as well as individual counseling. 2. The library is used every period of the day, including the librarian’s lunch period. All 636 students now have weekly access to the 14,000 volumes. Increased enrollment will mean less access to the library, which is being used to capacity now. Because of space shortages the TVs, opaque projectors and laminating equipment are also stored in the library, where students must move around them to get their books. 3. Another classroom will be created soon by dividing a classroom in two in order to make room for a federally-mandated new special education class. When the school was built 23 years ago, the school did not have to provide classes for students with learning disabilities, emotional problems, and mental and physical challenges. Now it is the law. The help these young people receive means they will be more independent and self-supporting in adulthood. Both the beauty and difficulty of public education is that is is mandated to serve all children, unlike private schools, which can be selective about their student body. 4. The fourth grade currently has 27-30 students to a class. With another teacher, class size would be reduced to 22 or 23. 5. One third-grade classroom is four feet shorter than the other two, which means it can house five less students. The class size is 21 in that room, while the other classes have 25 and 26 students. 6. The mobile units are used to the maximum throughout the day. It was pointed out that children must go out in the weather—rain, snow or shine—to get to classes m the units. 7. The four kindergarten and first-grade classes mean that an additional second grade teacher and classroom will need to be added each year. 8. Some tutoring and in-school suspension takes place in a room six feet by five feet. 9. Art and music share a room which is occupied by two desks, 30 chairs for music class, music equipment, art equipment and tables for art projects. 10. Third and fourth graders receive art instruction from a certified art teacher. The rest of the grades are taught by other school personnel, who have taken on this additional responsibility due to funding shortages for a full-time art instructor. 11. When music is being held in the music/art room, art must be held in the classrooms. With 40 minutes to set up, complete the work and clean up, only simple projects can be carried out. Paints and paper mache, for example, cannot be used, except when space is available on the stage. 12. The cafeteria now serves lunch from 11:15 a.m. to 1:40 p.m., after serving breakfast until 8:40 a.m. One hundred and eighty students are in the space at one time. Kindergarten students eat at 1 p.m. Despite having snack at 10:30 a.m., many of the kindergarteners complain of being hungry well before their time in the cafeteria. As with the library, increased enrollment taxes this public space, which is currently being used to its maximum. 13. The sewage lagoon is beyond its maximum capacity now. 14. According to actual enrollment, Planning District 9*8 projections and the birth rate, enrollment is increasing and will continue to do so. This increase affects the high school as well. Ideas were presented at the meeting about building a new middle school, building a middle school with a vocational center (we give Piedmont $250,000 per year for approximately 44 students) and adding mobile units. The suggestion was also made to examine the possibility of building a K-3 primary school, and keeping the present elementary school as a 4-8 intermediate school. Dr. [David] Gangel shared that, pending budget approval, an architect will be hired to give shortterm and long-term cost projections of the various possibilities, so the public can better make decisions. The members of the PTO acknowledged that these are tight times, locally and nationally, and the concerns of 650 petition-signers who don’t want rising taxes. Appreciation was also expressed for the large landowners, the farmers, the retired people with no children in school and the weekenders who support public education through volunteer time, donations to projects and willingness to pay a little more taxes for the sake of our country’s ftiture. The PTO asks that those who signed the petition; the Board of Supervisors; business owners, including farmers; and all Rappahannock voters tour the school. Seeing the problems first-hand may spark new solutions. The task of educating the children falls upon all of us who have an interest in the survival of economic prosperity and democracy in America. Young Americans will be competing in a global economy in the 21st Century. Without excellent, high-quality public education, the American Dream is in grave danger. The PTO is proud of the dedication our teachers and administrators have to preparing our children for the challenge of the future. And in this limited, imperfect world, the PTO invites the voters of Rappahannock to work together to creatively solve the problems before us. Please call Rappahannock Elementary School at 987-8259 if you are interested in a tour. LAURIE MARSHALL DIANA CORBIN School PTO Notification precedent To the Editor; We thought the arrogance of your March 5 editorial on parental notification of abortion was amazing. What is the basis for your presumption that the majority of families cannot communicate with their teenage daughters? Shouldn’t we give them the benefit of the doubt? Are you aware that a school nurse cannot even give a child an Aspirin without written permission from their parents? Is abortion some kind of special case? There is lots of precedent for parental notification. JOHN REYLAND DIANE REYLAND Sperryville Fan of RAWL canine photos To the Editor. I was distressed to hear from the Rappahannock Animal Welfare Lei^ue that you are not consistent about publishing the Pet of the Week photo. You are generally so good about public affairs and I encourage you to make a greater effort to keep this record up to the highest standard by publishing the photo every week. It has been demonstrated that the photo is a major factor in the adoption of pets from the shelter. In addition it is a good reminder to us all of the shelter’s existence and needs. Thank you for making sure we can see the Pet of the Week every week. AILEEN H. LAING Amissville Central to his life's work To the Editor: I would like to respond to recent letters concerning the debate over public funding for the arts. I’ll never forget the time a good friend confessed to me the central sadness of his life. I was taken aback by what I heard from this person of firm position and established background. He had a high paying position in the high-tech end of a weapons developing firm. “How much different would the world be if there was no war? Well, I certainly wouldn’t have a job! And also,” he said to me, “how much different would the world be if there was no music?” This was a question that took my life as a musician and my awareness of that life to a new level. I was awakened by a sense of responsibility. No longer did I create just for myself. I cannot say that I express anything for anyone else. I can only hope I can express what it is like to be alive here and now and my heartfelt desire to be valued by my country. How many different questions arise when we think of where our tax dollars and our life’s force are spent. TOM ESPINOLA Washington, Va. Inaccurate editorial To the Editor: Your editorial of March 5 inaccurately presents the parental notification bill passed by the Virginia General Assembly. The bill does not “force young women... to get their parents’ permission” for an abortion; rather, it requires that the physician notify one parent in advance of the scheduled abortion. If the child fears her parents, she can ask the juvenile and domestic relations court to authorize the abortion, bypassing the notification requirement. The intent of the legislation is to involve the family in the abortion decision. It protects children from abusive parents. It is good legislation, and Gov. Wilder should sign it into law. ROBERT M. DARBY Woodville Taking out the knife To the Editor: Hoowhee! Ron Frazier certainly has his bowie knife out! (Glad to see NEA attacked, March 5.) When Mr. Frazier says we should get rid of the National Endowment for the Arts because of a few questionable artistic endeavors, he’s saying we must penalize thousands of well-established, highly-respected, and much-loved orchestras, museums, theaters, dance-places, galleries and individual artists as well as those in the forefront of artistic experimentation. He’s also saying that he thinks the millions of us who get nourishment from the arts should be impoverished. Since its inception 26 years ago, the NEA has vastly enriched our nation’s cultural life while costing us a tiny amount. Who would argue that without the arts this country would lose much of its richness and flavor? To quote Nancy Hanks, NEA chairman in the ’70s: “Nurturing the broad range of the nation’s creativity is far more important than the few tempests that arise. . . . The cornerstone of any culture is the nurtured talent of its creative artists.” In truth, our government has supported the arts since the nation’s capital was established in Washington. Art frees our emotions, our imaginations, our intellect. Art restoreth our souls. Why, oh why, Mr. Frazier, should we cut the heart out of a program this nation needs and can be proud of because you want to stick it to a handful of artists? JOYCE ABELL RICHARD ABELL Woodville Delegate's voting record To the Editor. The importance of a strong two party system was demonstrated at this year’s Virginia General Assembly. As reported in Sunday’s Washington Post, many legislators felt that a stronger Republican presence changed the way that the General Assembly operated. The Post article said, “They pressured Democratic lawmakers to do more of their busi ness in the open, away from private huddles where important deals were cut in the past.” A less fortunate side of the two party system is the stubborn uncompromising partisan politics that sometimes leaves important issues unresolved and prevents legislators from voting their conscience. The “drunken-driving” bill may have failed to reach a compromise for this reason. In Rappahannock County, news of the General Assembly trickles in a lackluster fashion. As we welcome our freshman delegate Jerry Wood back from Richmond, many of us are curious how he voted on several budget items. Democratic supported amendments continue to bloat our state budget. The State Liaison Office in Washington, which costs $500,000 a year to operate, a proposal to increase the lieutenant governor’s expense account by $86,400 and a failed amendment to cut $44 million from the state lottery’s advertising budget are a few of the amendments that strike our curiosity. Since Jerry Wood is a member of the health care industry, we wonder why he supported Gov. Wilder’s “Sick Tax” bill. Through cost shifts, this bill would have placed a greater burden on the patient to pay for health care needs. We hope that partisan politics did not get the best of Mr. Wood. Many of us would welcome and look forward to reading how he voted on these and other important issues. JOHN LEKANDER Sperryville What was most scary To the Editor I read Ron Frazier’s letter last week with the same degree of interest as I would an announcement of a book burning or an inquisition. It was a difficult choice deciding which aspect of his letter was most scary. The viewpoint that creating art is not legitimate work, his suggestion that he would applaud the dismantling of the National Endowment for the Arts, or the lumping of all arts and artists in one category of “they” were all disconcerting. I think what I found most amazing is that Mr. Frazier would be happy to see funding cut for thousands and thousands of hard working artists because he finds one or two of them personally offensive. That would be the result if the NEA were “dismantled.” In the past 25 years the NEA has awarded nearly 90,000 grants with only a very small number (20 or so) creating any sort of nuqor controversy. With a wave of his righteous indignation Mr. Frazier would have many of our symphonies, theaters, ballet companies, operas, design studios, writers, poets, sculptors and painters go out and get Teal jobs. Perhaps we should knock off this silly notion that we are trying to create a culture and knuckle down to some honest work. “Hello, welcome to the Burger Pit. I used to sing opera but our funding was cut.” This is not the first time this “fig leaf’ mentality has reared its ugly head in a society. Many Renaissance writers, painters and sculptors, who are considered masters today, were subjected to vehement censorship and scrutiny in their own day. Works were later either destroyed or painted over because they were considered “offensive.” Censorship is quite a tricky subject. Once turned loose it tends to take on its own character with all of the stick waving, teeth gnashing, frantic, outof-control screaming and shouting of a mob. Most of the people do not even know what they are yelling about. Where would censorship stop and who would say so? Even our own great Mark Twain is, at this moment, in the process of being banned from our schools. I may even agree with Mr. Frazier on the works he finds offensive but I certainly do not agree with his solution. The amount of “wasted taxpayer money” he is talking about is less that one dollar per taxpayer a year. If one hundredth of one of my pennies goes to one of these “fringe artists” then so be it. I do not have to go to see their work if it offends me. At least I know I can go see a Brahms Concietto or one of Shakespeare’s plays which are being supported by the rest of my dollar. Our culture is having a hard enough time as it is. The idea of having to live without the solace of the arts in unacceptable. Some people specialize in creating things and some people specialize in stopping things. If those who prefer to stop things are turned loose on the arts, then we are in for some exciting times. Perhaps we will call it “Renoir meets Godzilla.” BILL WATSON Washington, Va.

Ruling means suit will be conducted in Rappahannock By MARK SCOLFORO Rappahannock New* Staff Writer LEESBURG—A hearing that was supposed to be a preview of the upcoming Wakefield-vs.-Wakefield lawsuit turned out to be anti-climactic last Wednesday, as the presiding judge said he needed more time to read and digest the latest paperwork filed by parties in the suit. But a few new developments did result from the 1 Vi-hour hearing in front of Circuit Court Judge Thomas Horne in Leesburg, including his ruling that future hearings will take place in the Rappahannock Courthouse, where the suit was filed. Wakefield School-Marshall has sued its co-founder, Pamela Lynn, its former landlord, Clydetta Lynn, and its successor at its former building in Huntly, Wakefield Country Day School-Huntly, for $14 million in papers filed about three weeks ago. Although the suit dates back to the summer of 1991, the recentlyfiled “amended bill of complaint” greatly expanded the suit in a 70page document. Pamela Lynn has responded in a 30-page pleading, and Wakefield CDS-Huntly is expected to file its response within days. The size and scope of the latest filings served to delay the alreadypostponed litigation even further last week. Judge Horne opened the hearing by rhetorically asking lawyers for Wakefield School-Marshall and Pamela Lynn, “Did you expect the court would be able to read and digest all of this paperwork?” Rock Mills resident and Wakefield CDS-Huntly attorney David Konick arrived shortly after the start of the Leesburg hearing to inform the court he will be acting as the school’s counsel. He said, “I want to make it very clear my client has the very strongest objections to being dragged into this suit at this time. ” Although he said he hoped Judge Home would rule against bringing Wakefield CDS-Huntly into the suit, no such decision was made during the Wednesday hearing. “It is a gross miscarriage of justice to allow my client to be dragged into it,” said Mr. Konick, a Wakefield CDS-Huntly parent who was active in the formation of the new institution. “If there is a claim against [Wakefield CDS-Huntly], it doesn’t belong in this case, ” he said. He asked that the school be dismissed from the case, but before the judge ruled or responded to that motion, Mr. Konick said, “I might add, your honor, we’d like to defend it in Rappahannock County, Virginia.” The judge said he “forced no one in this case to have hearings” in Leesburg, and offered to end the Wednesday hearing immediately and transfer the venue to Washington, Va. at a future date. He emphasized to Mr. Konick that the hearings had been held in Loudoun as a convenience to the various attorneys involved—not to him. “You’re the first person who’s ever raised an objection,” he said to Mr. Konick. Fourth-graders bring history to life with play A Rappahannock Elementary fourth-grade class is bringing the past to life by researching, writing and producing a play about the area’s schools in bygone days. Cynthia Brandt’s class began the project last month by breaking into teams that interviewed older people to get their memories of the old schools. The result were nine stories that the kids worked together to write themselves. Some of the stories dealt with local schools such as Sperryville and Forest Grove; others were tales from relatives who attended oneroom schoolhouses in other parts of Virginia or other states. Ms. Brandt’s class is now in the process of combining some of the stories into a play that they will rehearse before putting on in front of some of their schoolmates. Fourth-grader Joshua Phillips said he found the past interesting, but he wouldn’t want to have lived back then. Jerry Thomas interviewed his great-grandmother, who was on the girls’ basketball team at her school in Tazewell, Va. She was among 50 students crammed into a one-room building. Jerry and Adam Rogers wrote the story together after Jerry’s interview. Crystal Grigsby interviewed 60year-old Minor Dodson, who was born and raised in Rappahannock. “They did not have a lot of things in their classrooms as we do today, but their subjects were pretty much the same as ours, such as spelling, math, health, English, geography and history.” Glen Sedam, Wakefield SchoolMarshall’s attorney, said that Leesburg was acceptable to him, and Clydetta Lynn’s lawyer Wiley Wright and Pamela Lynn’s lawyer Thomas Logie both said they had no objection to the Loudoun Courthouse. Mr. Konick apologized, then said there is “a perception in Rappahannock County that this case is being conducted in a star chamber,” and that the “Rappahannock newspaper doesn’t have the staff or the resources to cover this case.” Mr. Konick has previously criticized the Rappahannock News for biased coverage in the case. The paper had a reporter at the hearing, and has covered other hearings in Leesburg and Washington. “If you want to have this case heard in Rappahannock County, clearly the statute says it should be heard in Rappahannock County,” said Judge Home. The judge set a schedule for upcoming trial hearings. Wakefield CDS-Huntly was given until March 12 to file its response to the $14 million suit, and Wakefield School-Marshall was told to file its next documents by the end of March. Legal briefs from all sides are due March 26, and a hearing on the legal issues (including demurrers, motions and special pleas) was slated for April 24. Judge Home also heard from Wakefield Schodl-Marshall that a set of library cards that correspond to their library books has not been handed over by Pamela Lynn, Wakefield CDS-Huntly’s acting headmaster. In fact, Wakefield School-Marshall argued that all of the school’s cards belong to them, as they were supposedly manufactured or purchased with their resources. The judge ruled that the cards that correspond to Wakefield School-Marshall’s books must be returned to them within two weeks. If not, he said he will appoint a special commissioner to dig through them and separate them, and the costs will be charged to Pamela Lynn. In an interview this week, Mr. Logie said his side would be willing to settle the case, but he did not hold out much hope that such a resolution will take place. “If the other side is ever willing to come up with a reasonable position, we’ll look at it,” he said. “I see very little prospect at this point, but I could be proved wrong.” He said the library card issue demonstrated that Wakefield School-Marshall’s Board of Directors “is intent on doing anything they can to destroy Wakefield Country Day School Inc. And you can quote me on that.” Mr. Logie also revealed that Fanners and Merchants Bank began selling $55,000 worth of Pamela Lynn’s bank stock to pay off a note on Feb. 27. 30 YEARS AGO March 15,1962 iTl he possibility of the conX struction of a large industrial plant in this area was announced this week by H.S. Barksdale of the Rappahannock Industrial Development Association. According to Mr. Barksdale, the plant, when erected here, will eventually employ over 250 persons and would “bring an opportunity for better economic security and business improvement for the entire area.” In making the announcement, Mr. Barksdale said this company now operates five plants in Virginia and is a nationally recognized garment manufacturer. The decision to open the hew plant here, he stated, will depend in part on whether local residents will be willing to invest an amount which will cover a portion of the total plant Medical supplies arrive at school Students in Cheryl Alexander’s third-grade class at Rappahannock Elementary saw their labors bear fruit recently when a truck from the Ansell Pharamceutical Co. pulled up to the school and dropped off 50 large boxes filled with surgical gloves, As part of a class project, the students had written to a variety of companies and businesses asking for medical supplies to help the new countries of the old Soviet U nion. In addition to the shipment from Ansell, the students have also received support from The Plains Pharmacy. The 50 boxes are being shipped via Baltic Lines through New York. They will be going across the Atlantic with a ship full of humanitarian aid from the United States. is was the news bygone Rappahannock times \.

Budget Continued from page A-1 years than were used in the first five years the building was open. He guessed that might be due to milder winters recently. The revised $4.79 million budget is up 7.86 percent from the current year’s $4.44 million. The state’s share is up 0.3 percent or $3,700. Federal funds are up 33.1 percent from $240,000 to $319,000. Miscellaneous revenues, chiefly the sales tax is down .76 percent from $497,000 to $493,000. The county’s share of the budget is up 10.95 percent from $2.46 million to $2.73 million. This would be the county’s minimum share for an enrollment of 1,010. Dr. Gangel reported that parents of 65 children had made appointments to register for next year’s kindergarten. “We’ve never gotten all ...-■■■■— i— ■ ——- " ' »' ■' "■ t AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY* our children to pre-register,” he added, saying that in the past when pre-registration was in the 60s, fall kindergarten enrollment has been in the 80s. He said that he was projecting enrollment for next year of 1,030, but that the budget was based on an enrollment of 1,010. With the county contributing only the minimum to cover 1,010, the school system would not be able to turn to the state for more funds if enrollment is the projected 1,030. PTO President Greg Robertson suggested that the School Board consider adding funding to purchase four more temporary classrooms. “Everyone is aware of the overcrowding with fourth-grade classes of up to 30 students,” he said. He added that eight special education classes are being taught in four divided classrooms. “We even have students in the closets in the hallways for testing,” he said. Mr. Robertson said the four additional classrooms would not take the place of the need for a middle school, but would “give us some breathing room.” The School Board has scheduled a work session on the budget for next Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. in the School Board office. Huntly senior honored The College of William and Mary has named Kathleen Mary O’Neill of Front Royal a James Monroe Scholar. Miss O’Neill, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert J. O’Neill, is a 17-year-old senior at Wakefield Countiff Day School in Huntly. Selected as one of this year’s top 150 applicants, she will be eligible to take honors courses as a freshman at the Williamsburg college and, after her junior year, will receive a $2,000 grant for study abroad. Miss O’Neill is also a National Merit Hispanic Semin-finalist. Bom in Paraguay, she spoke no English when she started pre-kindergarten at Wakefield Country Day School. She credits her success to “the courses at the school, Mr. and Mrs. Lynn, my parents, and my teachers.” Especially interested in languages and planning to eventually work with the United Nations, Miss O’Neill is off to a good start. She speaks English, French, and Spanish, her first language. The well-rounded Miss O’Neill was co-captain of the girls’ volleyball team and will play on the girls’ soccer team this spring. In the past, she has performed with the Northfem Virginia Academy of Ballet. She is co-editor of Wakefield Country Day School’s yearbook and its literary magazine.

It is a time when music education becomes the focus of students, teachers, parents, and community members everywhere, in an effort to raise awareness of the importance of music education. Music in Our Schools Month (MIOSM) encourages students to develop a sense of pride in their school music programs and in their own musical achievements. The Rappahannock Elementary School chorus kicked off the month on March 5 by participating in the world’s largest concert. The WLC (World’s Largest Concert) is a national PBS broadcast that unites voices of millions of children. The Rappahannock High School band performed a pre-festival concert and received excellent ratings from the District Band Festival. The Rappahannock High School talent show will begin at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, March 13. Donations will go toward a sound system for the high school auditorium. The Rappahannock High School choir will perform a “Mostly Webber” concert at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, March 18. With the exception of a few pieces from “Les Miserables,” all of the selections are taken from Andrew Lloyd Webber’s famous musicals: “Evita,” “Jesus Christ Super star,” “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat,” “Cats,” “Song and Dance,” “Aspects of Love," “Tell Me On a Sunday” and “Phantom of the Opera. ” Two days following the “Mostly Webber” concert, the Rappahannock High choir will perform in the District IX Choral Festival in Loudoun County. But performances will not end in March. The Rappahannock High Chorus will perform in the National America Sings! Festival with John Jacobson in Washington, D.C. on April 24 and 26. The chorus will be raising hinds to participate in the festival and to make a financial contribution to the homeless children in the U.S. As you can see, the Rappahannock School performing arts is busy and they invite the public to attend performances. The following are some dates those interested may want to mark on their calendars: Friday, March 13, 7:30 p.m. Rappahannock High School Talent Show; Wednesday, March 18, 7:30 p.m. Rappahannock High School Choir “Mostly Webber Show"; Thursday, May 7, 7:30 p.m. Rappahannock Elementary Choral program; May 8 and 9, Rappahannock High Drama production; May 14, 7:30 p.m. Band Gala; Thursday, May 21, Rappahannock High Choral Concert. EMS council's services Establishing uniform pre-hospital care for everyone in PD-9 is one of the main goals of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Emergency Medical Services Council. The RR EMS Council also works closely with police, sheriff and fire departments. Director Leilani Stanley also arranges disaster drills with mass casualties, search and rescue drills, water safety, and other community events demonstrating rescue techniques. Since every minute counts in an emergency, communications are the nerve center of the EMS system. The RR EMS Council owns and operates a radio communication site. It provides vital communications between rescue squad members in the field and the emergency room doctors. When necessary, there also are communications between squads, helicopters, and the hospitals. After a lightning strike, Ms. Stanley said, “We installed new improved equipment. I also appreciate Rappahannock Electric for repairing the road and for keeping us informed about the site.” The 20 rescue squads and the first responder units in PD-9 are highly trained volunteers. The RR EMS Council schedules classes and maintains a Training Resource Center for instructors who also are qualified volunteers. For class use, mannequins, projectors, slides, films, a TV, a VCR, and illustrated materials are stored in a central location. Better rescue equipment is being developed and it costs more. Ms. Stanley explained, “For example, the new Sure Seal mask for CPR fits infants, children, and adults instead of adults only.” The courses offered are CPR, multimedia standard first aid, first responder, emergency medical technician, early defibrillation, shocktrauma technician, endotracheal intubation, cardiac technician, basic and advanced trauma life support. Specialized courses include emergency vehicle operation, vehicle extrication, incident command, and EMS hazardous materials. In addition to training the RR EMS Council does the administrative work for the five counties and updates training to higher levels. The Virginia Rescue Squad Assistance Fund provides hardship grants, 50/50 and 80/20, for volunteer rescue squads to help purchase urgently needed equipment. State funds collected when autos are registered, Two-For-Life, are also used by state and local EMS. The RR EMS Council forwards requests for funds by PD-9 rescue squads to the state committee in Richmond. Transportation of patients in customized ambulances becomes more expensive as local rescue squads move from basic life support to advanced life support with cardiac units. According to Ms. Stanley, “I attend the state financial meetings and every time I have to remind them that both our old and new ambulances must travel many thousands of miles on rural roads and rough terrain.” The limited state funds for equipment are helpful but do not meet the operational needs of local rescue squads. Financial support for rescue squads and the RR EMS Council depends primarily on the PD-9 county and town governments as well as corporate and individual donations. School Board Continued from page A-1 Before taking the tour the board studied figures supplied by former elementary principal Mary Quaintance Snead for enrollment in the public schools since 1967 when the elementary school opened. At that time the elementary school had 845 students in first through seventh grades. Mrs. Snead said, “We had all kinds of room. There were not so many special classes.” Mrs. Snead said there were two special education classes in regular size rooms. There was a full room-sized teachers’ lounge and a separate music room. “We had a whole dental set up. All those rooms that have been divided are used for more special classes. I think that’s what has taken the space,” she added. The figures show that between 1967 and 1976 enrollment at the elementary school dropped steadily to 717. At the high school during those years enrollment increased gradually from 325 tro 463. The following year, when kindergarten was added, enrollment at the elementary school increased to 770. The following year, enrollment at the high school peaked at 476. After that enrollment at both schools decreased, dropping to 359 at the high school in 1989 and 556 at the elementary school in 1988. Since then enrollment has picked up at both schools, to 367 at the high school and 632 at the elementary school this year. School Superintendent David Gangel is expecting enrollment at' the elementary school to be essentially unchanged next year, but he expects an increase of approximately 30 at the high school with a senior class of 55 graduating and an entering eighth grade of about 85. The School Board also saw a video made by the staff showing kindergarten students working with their seventh-grade “reading pals” in kindergarten teacher Susan Bauer’s room. Mrs. Lauer said that two other kindergarten classes were paired with seventh-grade classes for reading activities once a week. She said she started the program so the children would have one-onone reading experiences and because they were somewhat frightened by the size of the seventh-graders they saw in the cafeteria. The board agreed to add two days to the spring vacation if they are not needed before then because of bad weather. The school calendar had five extra days scheduled. Two have been used for snow. With the new schedule, school will be closed for spring break from Thursday April 16th though Tuesday the 21st. The board approved the special education plan with a revised evaluation form sugggeBted by the Special Education Advisory Committee. The board approved an admissions policy that would deny admission to students suspended or expelled from other schools until they are eligible to re-enroll at their former school. They learned that sixth grader Wesley Welk had won the regional DAR essay contest and that senior Chris Sutton had won the DAR Good Citizenship Award. They appointed Martha Hall as a part-time special education teacher and Gary Settle as a volunteer assistant baseball coach.

Sports Continued from page A-1 Freshman Hitt has already shown real promise behind the plate, said Coach Leake. “The weather has kind of taken its toll on us,” said Coach Leake, “but we’re still getting a lot accomplished.” “I think we’re probably going to be picked to be in the top four. That’s positive and negative,” she said. The softball team opens play 4 p.m. March 18 at home against nondistrict foe Luray. Williams named to all-Bull Run team Rappahannock basketball team forward Michael Ray Williams was the only junior named to the All-Bull Run District team by a vote of the . league coaches following the justcompleted season. Williams led the district in rebounding with an average of 12.2 boards per game, and was third in . scoring with 17.1 points per game. The 6-2, 195-pound player needs to average 22 points per game next I season to become just the third person in school history to score 1,000 points in a career. “I think Michael was definitely one of our team leaders,” said Coach Gary Leake. “Definitely his Lions to test kids' hearing By BOB SCOTT Rappahannock Neva Contributing Writcr For many years, March has brought a familiar sight to Rappahannock County—the brightly colored Mobile Sight and Hearing Screening Van operated by the Li“ ons Clubs of Virginia. The unit provides free vision and hearing tests to all the children in the county’s schools; all the testing is free. It is equipped with a soundproof booth for hearing testing as well as the latest vision-testing equipment. The van will be at Wakefield Country Day School in Huntly from 9 a.m. until noon on Monday, March 16; at noon the operation will move to the Rappahannock Elementary School where students will be screened starting at 1 p.m. until 3 p.m. Testing will continue at the elementary school from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. the next day, Tuesday, March 17. On Wednesday, March 18, the van will move to the Rappahannock High School, where students will be screened from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. Lions Club spokesman Bob Anderson, who is organizing the van’s visit this year, emphasized that there is no charge for the tests. The costs of operating the mobile screening unit are borne by the Lions Clubs of District 24-A. He explained that the proceeds from community projects such as the Rappahannock club’s annual auction, apple butter sales, light bulb drives, fruitcake and nut Mies are contributed toward making this service available to the students of Rappahannock County, as well as the rest of Northern Virginia District. Parents whose children are found to have suspected hearing or vision problems through the screening unit will be notified by the school administration, Mr. Anderson said. The parents are then responsible for any farther diagnostic testing or correction of the problem. Parents who wish additional information about the screening program should call their child’s school, or Bob Anderson (987-8206), Mike Maasie (675-3637), or Kermit Weakley (675-3246). W strengths were his jump shot and his rebounding ability.” “Michael has a tendency to play as well as his teammates play. When everyone played well around him, he had a very successful game,” he added. After averaging more than 20 points per game early in the year, opponents resorted to double- and triple-teaming him, but the points kept adding up. Gary Leake predicted that Williams, Clarke County’s Casey Childs and Brentsville’s Bobby Hogan will be the district’s premiere players next season. With nine players returning, more than any other district team, the coach said the prospects for ’92’93 look good. Several team members are planning to attend an indepth team camp in North Carolina this summer, said Gary Leake. The school will sponsor the All-Net Basketball Camp again this June as well. Baseball season opens next week The key word to describe the Rappahannock High baseball team, again this year, is youth. Last year the freshmen pitching team of J.C. Welch and Hunter Foster took the bulk of the work on the mound, and as sophomores this year the same is expected. But Coach Mike Tupper said some other players have stepped forward and shown pitching ability, and this season a key ingredient to the pitching game may have been found: a number of possible lategame stoppers. t Leading the team offensively last year was All-Bull Run District designated hitter Kevin Daymude, who averaged about .400 and hit four home runs, including one game-winning grand slam. Daymude, a senior this year, was the team’s catcher last season but is projected to play third base, first base and pitch this season. Other returning seniors are center fielder Justin Ferrance, who hit about .350 last year; and outfielder James Roy, a three-sport athlete coming off a tough basketball season that left him somewhat banged-up. Utility infielder Richie Lillard and pitcher-outfielder Leroy North are the squad’s returning juniors. A new 11th grader this year is Kevin Jolliffe, and Coach Tupper said he is a projected starter in the outfield. Junior catcher Mike Jenkins is also expected to contribute. Left-hander Welch and rightie Foster are both coming off freshman seasons that saw them emerge as the backbone of the pitching squad. Both are strong hitters and expected to be team leaders in this and coming years. A1 Kellert, another returning sophomore who saw playing time last year (as a pinch runner mostly), will be playing infield and doing some pitching this year, said Coach Tupper. Chris Digges, a new player, is the only other sophomore. Freshman Paul Brown, another three-sport athlete, has been seeing practice time at catcher and in the infield. Other freshmen: infielder James Eastham, infielder Daniel Dodson, third-baseman and pitcher Luke Zindel, and promising prospect Barry Tummeyer. Statewide Search MBS, AMEBBCil i GO FOR IT!

Assembly Continued from page A-1 * * .• IT The $443 million package was pushed by Northern Virginia legislators as a means to step up road building in the heavily congested region and as a measure to put people back to work. * The package contains a provision fbr a two cents per gallon increase in the gasoline tax to pay for the debt on the bonds as well as generate extha revenue for other roads projects. The tax increase is expected to generate $70 million annually, while the debt on the bonds is estimated to cost between $40 million to $50 million per year. “ Gov. Wilder hinted March 7 that he is still uneasy about a transportation bond proposal and may veto the measure. In an impromptu press conference, the governor said that the state is already planning to spend more than $5 billion on roads over the next five years. ; Sen. Richard Saslaw, D-Fairfax, the sponsor of the transportation bill, argued that bonds are needed to begin work right away. Sen. Saslaw also claimed the gas tax increase is necessary to ensure that transportation revenues exceed the amount needed to simply maintain the state’s road network. “We are two to three years away from the point where we were in 1986, when maintenance needs reached the same level as revenues,” Sen. Saslaw said. Opponents of the bill argued that the voters would not be willing to approve transportation bonds at the same time they are asked to approve three bonds proposals for higher education, parks, and mental health hospitals. “If you believe the people of this Commonwealth are ready to approve a billion dollars in debt at one time—and I don’t believe they willthen have at it,” said Del. Franklin Hall, D-Richmond. Key components of the bill are: • $5.6 million for improvements to Route 7 east of Leesburg to Route 607 and improvements to the Route 7-U.S. 15 Leesburg bypass on the eastern end of the town. • $5 million for Dranesville Road in Fairfax County. • $6 million toward a computerized traffic signal system in Fairfax County. • Up to $80 million for the Fairfax Parkway. * • $47 million for the Franconia Metro station. • $2 million for U.S. 1 in Fairfax County. • $10 million for a parallel lane on the Route 7 Hamilton-Purcellville bypass. • $2.5 million for the Algonkian Parkway interchange with Route 7 in Loudoun. School Board votes on hold Gov. WUder said last week that he would like to delay the first election of school boards untfi 1995. , The General Assembly passed legislation this session calling for local referendums on the issue of elected school boards in November.

PIEDMONT PRESS Orders taken at XUppafjamtocb iittas 703/675-3338 the direct election of school board members until 1995 by requiring that school board members’ terms run at the same time as members of boards of supervisors or city councUmen. The governor characterized his amendments as beneficial to the bill, saying the changes give voters a chance to elect supervisors and school board members with “like philosophies.” “I like the idea of having the terms run concurrently. That way you can have them (supervisors and school board members) campaign and serve at the same time. But, I hate to see us have to wait until 1995,” said Sen. Charles WaddeD, DLoudoun-Fairfax. The General Assembly will vote on Gov. Wilder’s proposed amendments at a one-day veto session on April 15. The Assembly may accept or reject the amendments, but runs the risk of having the bill vetoed if the amendments are rejected. Historic area bill is passed A bill that allows landowners to vote to veto a new historic district as well as two existing historic districts passed the General Assembly last week. The bill was delayed while the House and Senate reached a compromise on the scope of the bill. At issue was language allowing the owners of a single building or small group of buildings to opt out of a state historic district. The Senate wanted to keep the language while the House did not. The Senate prevailed and the bill easily passed. Gov. Wilder now has the option of signing or vetoing the bill. Abortion bill gains approval Both houses of the General Assembly have now passed a bill requiring that the parents of girls under the age of 18 be notified before the girl may get an abortion. Proponents of the bill immediately expressed delight and hope that Gov. Wilder would sign the bill. “The law is a teacher. The law now says to a child that you cannot WESTERN SHIRTS Long & Short 1 .

Loudoun St. Mall ON THE CORNER Downtown Winchester be manipulative and deceitful and keep things from your parents. The law now says parents have a God given right to care for their children,” said Anne Kincaid of the Family Foundation of Virginia. The bill requires that doctors inform at least one parent of a girl age 17 or younger 24 hours before performing an abortion. If the doctor does not inform a parent, he or she may be charged with a class III misdemeanor, which carries a line but no prison sentence. The bill includes a judicial bypass that would allow a juvenile court judge to waive the parental notification requirement if the girl appears to be mature or if waiving the requirement is found to be in the girl’s best interest. “It’s an irony that we decide that for whatever reason she is too immature to get a medical procedure, she is mature enough to be a mother,” said Sen. Janet Howell (D-Fairfax). Sen. Howell led the opposition to the bill in the Senate. Parental notification bills have been introduced and passed in the House for 10 years, always to die in the Senate. The bill died in one committee of the Senate this year but was revived in another committee and sent to the Senate floor. The Senate voted earlier last week to reduce the age in the bill from 18 to 16. The House rejected this move and the Senate concurred March 6. That vote meant the bill passed. In Virginia, 82,363 abortions were performed in 1990. Of that total, 7,187 were performed on girls' age 17 or younger, according to statistics kept by the state Department of Health and Human Resources. Opponents of the bill claim it has serious constitutional problems as well as a financial impact on the state. Those arguments, said Karen Reschke of Planned Parenthood, should force Wilder to veto the bill. “The state Supreme Court estimated it would cost $331 for every bypass case just in court costs, . which the bill requires the state to cover. That alone could cost the state $3 million and the money is not in the budget,” Ms. Reschke said. She argued that by not providing money for judicial bypass the state may face U.S. constitutional challenges to the new law if it is signed by Gov. Wilder. Ms. Reschke said she is not threatening such a suit now. The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear a Pennsylvania case this spring that proponents and opponents of abortion say could be an impetus to discard the 1972 Roe vs. Wade decision on abortion. That decision granted a constitutional right to abortion. Ms. Reschke said that parental notification bills are attempts to “chip away at that right.” Supporters of the bill disagreed. 'This is a parental rights and family rights bill," said Sen. Joseph Benedetti, R-Richmond. Terry's DUI bill killed in end Attorney General Mary Sue Terry personally witnessed the defeat of her bill to allow magistrates to immediately take away the driver’s licenses of persons accused of drunk driving. A version of the bill passed both houses of the General Assembly but was killed in the last minute crush of legislative action on the final day of the Assembly session. The bill died when the House and Senate could not reach a compromise on the measure. Miss Terry, after learning of the last minute wrangling, appeared outside the Senate chambers to lobby lawmakers personally. “I think her being there may COOP 50/50 SPECIAL Save Your Green on Seed & fertilizer BUY 50 lbs of 5-10-10 FERTILIZER for *3.50 WITH 50 LBS OF KENNEBEC SEED POTATOES FOR *6.45 = $9.95 Sole price when purchased together.

The bill nukes such crimes a felony rather thah a misdemenor. • Sen. Waddell engineered a last minute compromise with lawmakers from the House of Delegates to increase the fees for vehicle registration by one dollar. Waddell’s bUl originally called for a $3 increase in the fees to pay for the expansion of Department of Motor Vehicles offices in Fairfax and elsewhere in the state. The compromise also sets a one-time $10 fee for special license plates residents may choose to get if they wish. There are two versions of the plates, dne featuring the Blue Ridge Mountains and one featuring the Cardinal — Virginia’s state bird. • Del. Linda Wallace, K-Loudoun-Fauquier, raised the hackles of several lawmakers this year by introducing a bill requiring that police officers, rescue workers and fire fighters be notified if a person whose blood they have come in contact with has the HIV virus. The bill at first drew fire from opponents worried about medical confidentiality. The bill passed, however, in the final week of legislative action. “There was a compromise worked out that protects both the patients confidentiality and safety officers. It will give the public safety officers some peace of mind,” said Del. Wallace. The bill still requires that officers be notified if they have come in contact with someone who has the AIDS virus. • The General Assembly created two new state departments this year. The departments were created without requiring the state to hire more employees. The state now has a Department of Environmental Quality, that will combine the work of the existing Water Control Board and Department of Air Pollution. The state also has a new Department of Rail and Public Transportation. The department is intended to “focus” state efforts on rail and mass transit according to the new department’s chief legislative sponsor, Sen. WaddeU. • In the final throes of the legislative session, the General Assembly killed a bill requiring that motorists turn on their headlights whenever they use their windshield wipers. • Lawmakers created the crime of stalking, the act of following someone with the intent to harm them or harrass them. The bill is seen as a new tool in the fight against domestic violence. • Lawmakers passed a bill allowing cameras in the state’s courtrooms except in juvenile or some sex crime cases. lovers made out well in the session. The Assembly restored funding for the horse breeders fund and passed a measure allowing off-track betting in an effort to attract a horse racing track. • Another bill passed by the Assembly grants landowners immunity from liability suits when allowing fox hunters to cross their lands. • The Assembly killed a bill calling for sales tax on boarding, training and riding lessons. • The Assembly approved a bill requiring a $7.50 salt water fishing license. • The lawmakers killed a bill allowing landowners to keep fishermen from wading upstream through their property. Recycling center is open The recycling drop-off center at the Washington Fire Hall is now open daily during daylight hours to all town and county recyclers. The center accepts all the recyclables that have been picked up in the town curbside collection pro* gram and that are accepted at the recycling shed at the Amissville landfill: clear, green and brown glass; tin and aluminum; and plastics. Newspapers, however, are not accepted at the Washington site. Town and county residents who recycle at the fire hall drop-off center are asked to take their newspapers to Amissville, although town residents can continue to have their newspapers picked up at curbside onr the third Saturday of each month, at a part of the monthly town trash collection program. Newspapers picked up in town will be taken to the recycling trailer at the landfill and not dumped as trash. Town residents without cars or other means to get their recyclables to the fire hall can call Ray Gooch at 676-3474 for a helping hand. The drop-off center is a white “roll-off’ container with five marked bins for bottles and cans. It is now located at the rear of the Fire Hall garage at the edge of the graveled parking lot for easy, all-weather access.

Hume sculptor shares vision in 'Exchange' By MARK SCOLFORO Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer Sculptor Frederick “Rick” Hart brings his involvement with a variety of communities to the third installment of the Ki Theatre “Exchange” series, to be held at the sculptor’s home studio at Hume, at 7:30 p.m. March 15. First, there are communities such as those who performed restoration and renovations to the National Cathedral during the time Hart was putting up a monumental work on the west facade. And he became involved with a group of Vietnam veterans that he met through his now-famous memorial statue. Then there’s the Rappahannock-Fauquier community, which he describes as “peppered with artists,” and of which he recently became a member. And the artist cites membership in the world community as being important to himself and of relevance to his work. This, the second year of Ki’s Exchange, is designed to explore the relationship between artists and their community (however they choose to define it). Mr. Hart said, “I plan to interpret it in a couple of different ways; show some slides of my work and talk about a lot of different kinds of community.” Mr. Hart feels very strongly about what he calls the “moral obligation of artists to society—something I’ve been harping about for some time.” The recent elevation of the issue of federal arts funding to the forefront of the national debate has a good side, he says: it has brought the questions of “what is art, who’s it for, whether it should be funded, etc.” into the lives of average Americans. “It’s an irreconcilable error for public monies to be spent on private art,” he said, an error that the federal government has committed. Two years ago he penned an article for the Washington Post that argued that a lot of the problems the National Endowment for the Arts is having today have been “brought on by the artists themselves.” He’s not in favor of dismantling the NEA, he said, but feels that the current scrutiny is a good thing for the long-term direction of the agency. “I think what’s lacking in the NEA and the arts community is any sort of guiding philosophy,” he charged. But aside from the national controversies swirling around the federal government’s art-funding policies, Mr. Hart will bring his unique experiences as an artist to this weekend’s installment of the Exchange. His sculpture draws its subjects from what he calls “internal fables. I would be doing what I’m doing if I were here or in New York.” Feedback from the Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial statue he created has been, he said, “humbling.” Although he is not a veteran himself, creating the national monument has brought him into the community of Vietnam veterans. “I have been really humbled by the degree to which the Vietnam Memorial statue has affected people in a positive way and the way it affects people to have it there (on the Mall),” he said. “The response from veterans has been very touching and gratifying. It sort of puzzled me at first, because veterans took such delight in the details of the work,” which were researched at ^pngth. The details, he added, serve as an “acknowledgement of what they went through.” Sm RICK HART, p.B-7 Rappahannock Newt Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Rick Hart in his studio. Finding modem approaches to motherhood, family roles By LISA G. CURRIE Rappahannock New* Staff Writer At a time when many families are grappling with child-care deci' sions, some have turned to the traditional family role of the mother: staying at home and nurturing the children. In Rappahannock County, a group called the Mothering Cooperative was formed in 1990 to help mothers at home build social contact with other parents, develop and maintain a self image, create discussion groups for family care, network skills, babysitting networks and playgroups. The group started with just 22 members and in two years has grown to number nearly 40 with mothers coming from as far as Culpeper, Gainesville and Warrenton. “Some are career women and some are not,” said co-founder and present co-chairman Carol Lucking of Woodville, a mother at home with three young children. “This group offers supportive assistance for women in their childbearing years,” she said, explaining mothers of various ages and diverse backgrounds meet monthly to offer support as well as converse with other mothers. Developing their group bylaws from a nationally based group, The Mothers’ Center in Rhode Island, Mrs. Lucking said the cooperative “allows personal growth for mothers at home” as well as forming a network of friends for mothers at home in rural areas. Sperryville mother-at-home April Heddleston said her mission is to pass the word and offer necessary support to encourage other mothers at home. Her recent publication in “Discovering Motherhood,” an 80-page paperback on the wonders and enjoyment of mothering, explores the importance and challenge of breastfeeding. “Basically, my mission is to support mothers at home with an emphasis on the importance of mothering,” said Mrs. Heddleston, a mother at home with three children ranging in age from 2 to 12. A petite blond woman in her mid-30s, Mrs. Heddleston plays tea party with her youngest, Joy, as she speaks. Though this is the first time she has been published in a book, she said she is familiar with the publication process. Her monthly articles have appeared in a Northern Virginia based magazine, “Welcome Home,” for which she has served as “Early Years” department editor for four years. The book was published by the magazine, a non-profit publication written by mothers at home in support of mothers at home. “They needed an article on breastfeeding,” Mrs. Heddleston said, adding the informational article appeals to both the emotions and intellect of the reader. The article uses personal information and facts and details from outside resources. “I breastfed my own children,” she said, explaining she feels strongly about the importance of breastfeeding, not only for health Rappahannock News Staff PhouVUtaO. Currie April Heddleston at home with 2-year-old daughter Joy . and economic reasons but for the bonding it builds between mother and child. She said she spent several hours preparing the article, reviewed and approved by the Le Leche League and several other mothers, before it went to the editors. The book offers illustrations, poetry, features on making the move from office to home, adjusting to a child, emotional support, transitional times, ways to economize or build networks with other mothers at home and reminds mothers tp enjoy the specialness of children. It was published in December 1991 and can be ordered by sending $8.50 plus $2 postage to 8310A Old Court House Road, Vienna, Va. 22182. Writers from around the United States participated in the publication. Using personal stories, experts and consultants and statistics, it “is focused more for the mother at home but can be beneficial to mothers the second time around” who have decided with the second child to leave the office for motherhood, said Mrs. Heddleston. “It definitely can help a new mother,” she said, explaining the book is very supportive and covers such topics as sleep loss, getting fathers involved and adoptive parents. With more mothers leaving the workplace for their homes and children, such a publication can be enlightening and is much in demand. “The latest Department of Labor statistics show a slight increase in mothers staying home,” Mrs. Heddleston said, adding “this is the first trend upward, showing a reversal of the trend in the late 1970s and ’80s,” when more women chose the career and its paycheck over motherhood. Women around Rappahannock are making the trade. Witness stained-glass artist Patti Mullin and travel agent Sheila SimmsWatson. Another woman to trade in the paycheck for full-time motherhood is Angie la Van way of Flint Hill. A newcomer to the county and a new member of The Mothering Cooperative, Mrs. la Vanway left behind a position as executive director of the Rockingham Chamber of Commerce to be with her young son, Phillip. Alter three months of maternity leave, Mrs. la Vanway said she liked the experience of being with her son and the “challenge of motherhood.” She said she felt being at home with her son where she could offer one-on-one attention was better for his development and more agreeable for her. When making the decision to stay home, she “wanted to do some kind of work at home” and figured her background could enable her to do bookkeeping, conSm MOTHERS, p.B-7 Photographer to share African experience By MARKSCOLFORO Rappahannock Now* Staff Writer Shortly after National Geographic published «T series of his photographs in the May 1990 issue, Sperryville’s Chris Johns went to work on a book. He shot more than 830 rolls of film during the 18 months he spent in the Great Rift of Africa, and the magazine used about 20 with the article. A friend suggested compiling the remainder into a book, and the result is “Valley of Life: Africa’s Great Rift,” published in October. Mr. Johns will hold a slide show, lecture and booksigning at the Rappahannock Library at 8 p.m. Saturday, March 21, sponsored by the library and Cabin Fever Books. His fascination with Africa dates to his childhood, when Mr. Johns’ grandfather in Oregon would convey a love of the continent to his grandchild. When Mr. Johns, a contract photographer for National Geographic, was offered an African assignment, “I just jumped at the chance,” he said during an interview this week. The Great Rift of Africa is a 3,600-mile geologic split in the Earth that runs from Djibouti in the north east through about a dozen countries of east-central Africa: Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Zaire, Tanzania, Zambia, Malawi, Rwanda, Burundi and others. In the north is passes through some of the hottest (135° Farenheit in the summer), most inhospitable climate on the planet. The outline of the rift can be more or less followed by tracing the line formed by a series of elongated lakes both north and south of Lake Victoria. The photographer said getting the photos he needed could be dangerous. The Afar tribesmen of the northern desert can be a violent, severe people, and the climatic differences over the length of the rift were radical. “You learn to be careftil. You come to the environment over there on the environment’s terms. . . . People die out there all the time; they have car trouble, all kinds of things can happen.” Mr. Johns wrote the five chapters of the book and took all 112 hill-color photographs. The introduction was penned by Patrick Hemingway, son of the great novelist. The Charlottesville publishing house of Thomasson-Grant took a look at some of Mr. Johns’ prints and “right there said they wanted to do the book,” he said. “They felt it would not only have a U.S. audience, but also a European audience.” The first U.S. printing was 7,800, the English printing was 7,600, and the book is out in France and Italy as well. Mr. Johns said negor tiations are under way to come out with a German edition. Thus far, he said, sales have been strong and several major publications have printed favorable reviews. Mr. Johns said the time he spent researching and photographing the rift was “the experience of a lifetime, it was incredible. What made it all the better was a I met my wife over there.” His wife, Elizabeth, was working for the U.S. Information Agency at the embassy in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. They were married in Africa and now have two children: Noel, 18 months, and newborn Katherine. He works at the Geographic’s headquarters in D.C., so living ip Rappahannock is not impractical. Mr. Johns was familiar with the county, having spent some time on the Appalachian Trial for another assignment. Copies of the hardcover book will be available during the slide show/lecture at the library next week (139.96).

CURRIE Rappahannock N*wa Staff Writer Joan Platt and Frances Dodd talked about starting their own business for years. With the dawn of 1992, their talk became action and the two friends opened Business Support Service in Warrenton. Located on 9 North Third St., in Suite 100, Office A on the upper level, and sporting one of Warrenton’s new telephone exchanges— 703-341-4310, the two specialize in the printed word to the customer's desire. Whether it’s resumes, birth announcements, wedding invitations, newletters, flyers, brochures, graphics with logos, checkbook reconciliations, typing forms, letters or papers, or just general correspondence, the tiny one-room office with two computers, one laser printer and two dedicated young professionals can oblige. Using IBM and Macintosh computers that offer more than 70 styles of type, providing various paper qualities and forms, laser printing smoothness and professional guidance, the two “try to be personal with each client,” working to accommodate their schedules, desires and timeframes into the Anal project, said Ms. Platt, a Rappahannock resident. “Our work can be customized to the client’s needs,” said Mrs. Dodd, a Warrenton resident and former government employee. Through word-of-mouth advertising and “cold calling” of clients, the two have found an “incredible m Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Lisa O. Cunie Joan Platt, right, and Frances Dodd of Business Support. amount of business” in Rappahannock and Fauquier counties. “We want to be able to grab tl)e business sector as well as the individual client," Ms. Platt said, sitting next to her Macintosh computer in her new office—a tiny one-room space brightly lit with sunshine. A long desk/table covers one wall, offering workspace to the two women. Job cost is based on an hourly wage with exceptions for re sumes, which are a set fee. While Business Support Service is new in Warrenton, it’s not new in the making. Ms. Platt started the business over a year ago in her home at Massies Comer. She divides her time between Rappahannock and the Warrenton office, where Mrs. Dodd is stationed five days a week from 8:30 a.m. until 5 p.m. Flint Hill residents travel uuuney naxuuun, rai oaunon and De De Salmon motored to Amherst last Thursday to visit L.B. Burford and Ann Hill. Margaret Eastham visited Mr. and Mrs. Aubrey Lillard on Thursday. Moe and Evelyn Walker returned to their home after a trip to Florida. The Walkers visited their son, Doug Walker and family at Rome, Ga. They visited among other - friends and relatives in Florida. Mr. and Mrs. W.A. Nuckols at Jacksonville, the Frank Good family at Orlanda and Mr. and Mrs. James Day at Titusville. They attended the Strawberry Festival in Plants City and spent some time at Daytona Beach. Paula Howell of Madison Heights spent the weekend with her mother Mrs. Paul Miller. They visited with Frances Eubank at Washington on Sunday. Helen Wright and Richard Looney of Woodstock visited their sister Christine Vest on Sunday. 03004601Mr. and Mrs. James Cameron of Front Royal were Sunday visitors of Mr. and Mrs. Grady Vest.

Leon Lillard of Broad Run, Edith Graves of Luray and Mrs. Franklin Hawkins visited their parents Mr. and Mrs. Aubrey Lillard over the weekend. A speedy recovery to all those on the sick list. The Flint Hill United Methodist Church will have worship service at 9 a.m. on Sunday, March 15. The pastor the Rev. Merlin Shorb invites the public. Mrs. Dougie Bywaters and children Matthew, Angie and Joshua, Jennifer Bywaters and Mary Frances Bywaters visited Mrs. Wade Pullen on Sunday. Joan Patton and Helen of Stephens City spent Sunday with her parents Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Lillard. Mrs. Lillard is reported to be recovering nicely after surgery last week. She was visited daily by members of her family. Also visiting in the Lillard home on Sunday were Mr. and Mrs. Stevie Lillard of Marshall. Visiting with Ethel Lillard and Chris on Thursday were Jackie Lillard and Crystal of Front Royal and Ronnie Lillard of Warrenton. They were celebrating Mrs. Lillard’s birthday. The Administrative Board of the Flint Hill United Methodist Church met on Monday evening with Louise and Clarence McCulloch. Those present were Merlin Shorb, Thelma Crane, Artis East, Evelyn Walker, Moe Walker, Mary Frances Bywaters, Mary Curtis, Jack Curtis, M.H. Brady and Libby Wharton. Junks' home in mag The Sperry ville home of Tom and Danielle Junk is featured in the current issue of Country Victorian Accents magazine. In an article, titled “Echoes of Empire,” the Junks’ Main Street home is featured in a six-page, seven-photo spread. A paralegal and a legal secretary by trade, Ms. Platt decided to leave the law office and someone else’s employment behind for two reasons— to be more available for her young daughter, Erin, and the obvious need in Rappahannock County for such services. “I’ve been running other people’s businesses since I was fresh out of high school,” she said, explaining the time was right in her life to start her own business. Purchasing her own Macintosh and laser printer for her home office, she started the business while working at other part-time positions available. “I saw a need in Rappahannock,” she said, adding while the need was great for many small businesses, the need was not great enough for a fulltime person at any one particular site. By offering one-time, one-day service to many clients, Ms. Platt is available to Rappahannock clients with a one-time need as well as small businesses that require printing services on an irregular basis. Mrs. Dodd, leaving the Northern Virginia commute behind to spend more time with her two children, worked as a legal assistant in Warrenton for some time before contacting Ms. Platt about working together. “It’s not that we work less now,” Mrs. Dodd said of her work with Business Support Service, “but it ajlows us to be more flexible.” “We probably work more hours,” echoed Ms. Platt, saying often work is done late into the night or on weekends—at home amidst the family- ily is also a lot more responsibility when you are working for yourself instead of someone else,” she said, adding the business has been successful because the two women complement each other, each offering a strong point the other lacks. With Mrs. Dodd in the office, walk-ins and unscheduled work can be attended to in Warrenton. For those needing assistance in Rappahannock County, contact Ms. Platt at 675-3049. Answering machines in both offices are checked regularly. Hurricane exercise set The Rappahannock Emergency Management Agency is taking part with similar groups across the state in a mid-Atlantic regional hurricane exercise code-named Integrated Exercise Zelda during the first three weeks of March.

The day of heaviest involvement by state and local emergency management officials will be March 18.

The nature of it varies according to one's character and personality. An artist may dream of creating a masterpiece-not yet painted-which will inspire many people. Another person may aee a vision of how he or she can make life happier for others. Everyone must believe in his or her dream in order to go forward with patience. Jesus hoped that the world would hear His message through the uneducated fishermen He chose as His close companions. He did not give up His dream that the disciples would carry on His work .,. even when Peter denied any connection with Him. His dream came true.

Bite into a healthy lifestyle By HELEN W. SMITH KaMPMannock Newt Contributing Writer The grapefruit diet, the drinking man’s diet, the Beverly Hills diet. . .and the list goes on. These have all been passing fancy “miracle diets” promising health at the end of an illusory nutritional rainbow. The only sensible way to eat and meet our nutritional needs is to eat a balanced diet that provides the protein, vitamins and minerals, fiber, and water for our bodies. Therefore, variety, moderation, and balance continue to be the keys to healthy eating. Dietary guidelines Nutritionists in the federal government have developed a set of guidelines that can help many Americans improve their eating habits. The guidelines are a joint effort of the Departments of Agriculture and Health and Human Services. Based on what we know today about the relationship of diet to good health, the guidelines recommend that we: • Eat a variety of foods. • Maintain ideal weight. • Avoid too much fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol. • Eat foods with adequate starch and fiber. • Avoid too much sugar. • Avoid too much sodium. HOME ECONOMICS • If you drink alcohol, do so in moderation. The guidelines helpt us make informed choices about our food. The object is to get the right balance of vitamins, minerals, and fiber without overdoing the salt or calories, especially calories from fat and sugar. Many adults, especially women, fall short of recommended levels of some nutrients like iron. In my nutrition column this week, I will briefly explain each recommendation. If you need more detailed information, call the Extension Office at 675-3619 for the publication on Dietary Guidelines or information on other nutritional topics. Eat a Variety of Foods - Vari ety is not merely the spice of life, it is essential for a healthy life. Good health relies on a steady supply of essential amino acids, vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, energyyielding nutrients (proteins, fats, carbohydrates), and water. No one food can supply the over 40 nutrients needed daily in the amounts required for healthy growth and repair of tissue. Maintain a Healthy Weight - Both being too fat or too thin are related to health problems. Obesity is a risk factor for coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, and certain types of cancer. Thin women my be prone to osteoporosis and the quest for thinness my increase the incidence of eating disorders. Choose a Diet Low in Fat, Saturated Fat and Cholesterol - Health authorities suggest we get 30 percent or less of our total food energy (calories) from fat and less than 10 percent of our total calories from saturated fatty acids. Zero-fat intake is not the goal since some fat is needed for fat-soluble vitamins, for energy and to supply essential fatty acids. Watch out for fat-laden convenience foods and chips, doghnuts, cookies, snack crackers, cakes, pies, and fried foods. Choose a Diet with Plenty of Vegetables, Fruits, and Grain Prod ucts - Vegetables, fruits, and grain products provide complex carbohydrates and dietary fiber, which promote a healthy digestive tract. These nutrients, along with vitamins A and C from fruits and vegetables, may help reduce the risk of certain types of cancer. Use Sugars in Moderation - Sugars and foods that contain large amounts of sugar supply food energy or calories but very few nutrients. Sugar also contributes to tooth decay. Choose fresh fruits and fruits packed in own juice, not heavy syrup. Go easy on candies, sweet desserts, and soft drinks. Read the labels; it may not always say “sugar.” Words that end in “ose” (glucose, sucrose, fructose), honey, syrup, and molasses are all forms of sugar. Use Salt and Sodium in Moderation - Using less salt and sodium benefits consumers whose blood pressure is sensitive to salt intake. Although some sodium is necessary for health, in general most Americans need less than what they eat now. In place of salt, use herbs, spices, a squeeze of lemon, a dash of pepper, a clove of garlic. Taste before you add salt, and then only sparingly. Go easy on high-sodium condiments such as soy sauce, cat US DA Choice Beef LONDON BROIL/ !

If You Drink Alcoholic Beverages, Do So in Moderation - Drinking alcoholic beverages contributes to some health problems and to accidents. Although an occasional drink is usually not harmful, women who are pregnant or trying to conceive should not drink in order to avoid birth defects. Others who should avoid alcohol include those who plan to drive, who are involved in activities that require attentive skill, who operate equipment, or who are on medication. Moderate drinking for women means one drink a day; for men, two drinks a day. Count as one drink: 5 ounces of wine or 12 ounces of beer or 1-1/2 ounces of liquor. No guidelines can guarantee health and well-being. Health depends on many things, including heredity, lifestyle, mental health and attitudes, and environment, in addition to diet. But good eating habits can contribute to your health. This week’s recipes are from The Mothering Cooperative. They’re an assortment of snacks, main dishes, soups, and desserts.

She works evenings, early mornings and during her son’s naps, she said. Going into it she had no preconceptions about how easy or how difficult the job would be, but after months of mastering the job it is getting easier. “We’ve become so career oriented that we’ve left mothering out,” said Mrs. Heddleston, who gave up teaching when her first son, Jonathan, now 12, was bom.
