Citizens League gets subdivision By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* SUIT Writer The Town Council had to carefully weave together elements of its agenda last Wednesday night in order to accomplish what everyone wanted to accomplish. In the process it left some members of the council and most members of the Rappahannock Citizens League baffled. The Citizens League had applied for a subdivision under the 1981 Subdivision Ordinance for property it owns on the Fodderstack Road across from the First Baptist Church. The group wants to sell off a lot and keep part of the property for parking for the church. It won approval for the subdivision this spring but had not been able to file the plat for the lot because it was required to post bond for installing curbs and gutters along the road. No one wanted the curbs and gutters built. In fact, it is doubtful the highway department would have allowed them to be built. However, other applicants, including three members of Town Council, had posted bonds for such unwanted curbs and gutters. Early in. the meeting the council opened a public hearing on an application by the Citizens League for relief from the requirement that curbs and gutters be built and the requirement that the plat be filed within 60 days—or at least relief from the bonding requirement. Peter Luke, representing the Citizens League, said the bonding requirement would cost his clients $11,000. He noted that if curbs and gutters were put in, they would be the only ones along the road and would create a water problem for property at the downhill end of the curb. He said he had been advised his clients could wait until the new subdivision ordinance was adopted because it didn’t require curbs and gutters, but it appeared to him that the new ordinance also required the curbs and gutters. “It seems to me this is an unusual situation because the subdivision doesn’t creSm CITIZENS, p.A-5 Washington's budget jumps 10 percent By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Town treasurer Brad Fisher presented the Washington Town Council with a proposed $113,900 budget last Wednesday, up nearly 10 percent from the current budget. To finance the budget, Mr. Fisher proposed that the meals and lodging tax be increased from 2.5 percent to 3 percent. He estimated this would bring in from $14,000 to $16,000 in additional revenue. Council member Newbill Miller said he opposed a tax increase during the recession. He said that even though town residents would not be paying much of the tax, the council should try to cut the budget instead. About 84 percent of the revenue for the town comes from the meals and lodging tax. Mr. Fisher noted that the Inn at Little Washington collects about 85 percent of the tax. Another 10 percent comes from The Country Cafe, and bed and breakfast businesses bring in about 5 percent. Reinhardt Lynch, co-proprietor of The Inn, asked the council to consider other taxes such as real estate, business or cigarette taxes. Mr. Fisher said he estimated that a business .ax would bring in at most $2,000. Residents would expect more services for real estate taxes, and no business within the town limits currently sells cigarettes. Between $12,000 and $13,000 of the budget goes to the Washington Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad. The town picks up the cost of telephone, electricity and heating, gasoline and oil, and repair of vehicles and other equipment as well as other smaller items on the department’s budget. A portion of the budget is to go into furnishing the old library building, now the Town Hall. The budget includes $2,600 for a conference table to be used for meetings, $2,500 for storm windows, and $3,500 to put in a new heating and air conditioning system. There are also funds to equip the balcony with an office for a town administrative assistant, and for a computer See BUDGET, p.A-5 Old Hollow burglaries said to be related A man who has broken into three homes in Old Hollow, apparently looking for food, does not appear to be dangerous or violent, but the Rappahannock Sheriffs Office is asking residents of that area to be on the lookout and to take extra precautions. The man has been spotted only once, but two other break-ins at vacant houses have been attributed to him, said Maj. Ed Streapy of the Rappahannock Sheriffs Office. He is believed to be living in the mountains around Old Hollow, possibly within Shenandoah National Park. Based on one woman’s encounter with him, he is described as a white male, mid-20s, average build with short, brown hair. He had been wearing a two-piece blue work-type uniform, said Mjy. Streapy. He is also described as neat in appearance. In the first incident, someone removed the screws from the hasps keeping the windows of a mountaintop cabin locked, then cut a triangular hole in the sash and entered the building. Taken were a kerosene See BREAK-INS, p.A-2 Carnival kicks off the season The Sperryville Volunteer Fire Department Carnival May 27-30 features, rides, games, a parade and the crowning of the queen. West Virginia Amusements, the same company that has provided the rides for the last two years, returns to the U.S. 211 fairgrounds. A new’ policy: all riders ride all night, all four nights, for only $5. The parade May 28 starts south of town on U.S. 522, heads north past the Comer Store, and turns left on U.S. 211 by the Rescue Squad building. The queen is crowned and the raffle prizes are awarded Saturday, May 30. There will be plenty of food for sale, and all proceeds benefit the fire department. The Sperry ville Volunteer Fire Department, founded in 1047, has about 25 members who answer close to 100 calls a year. The annual carnival, the county’s first of the season, provides 30-40 percent of the department’s annual operating budget. County roads on list of summer paving projects About 60,000 tons of asphalt will be used by a Richmond paving firm to resurface of sections of roads in Culpeper, Madison and Rappahannock counties. Resurfacing and shoulder rehabilitation is scheduled for primary Route 231 and secondary routes 620, 621 and 707 in Rappahannock County at a cost of $182,133. Lee Hy Paving Corp. started applying the asphalt to selected sections of primary and secondary roads this month. Besides the resurfacing, the contractor will also mill - remove existing - road surfaces in Madison County and complete shoulder rehabilitation along sections of roads in Culpeper, Madison and Rappahannock counties. In Culpeper County, approximately 15 miles of roadway will be resurfaced. Shoulder rehabilitation will be done on sections of routes 3,15 and 29 along with resurfacing, and resurfacing on sections of routes 617,620 and 685. Contract cost of the work in Culpeper County is $421,723. Sections of the northbound lane of U.S. 29 in Madison County from Route 626 to the Robinson River bridge and between routes 230 and 626 adjacent to the Virginia Department of Transportation Madison area headquarters are scheduled to be milled before being resurfaced. Some shoulder rehabilitation is scheduled along with the resurfacing slated for sections of primary routes 29 and 230 and secondary Route 609. The work Sm PAVING, p.

That occurred during the first week in May. On May 11 an Old Hollow woman found the subject in her kitchen after she left her home briefly to collect the mail. He was filling her fivegallon bucket with food, said Maj. Streapy. She told him he could not have the food, but made him a meal, and he left. The next day the same woman observed the man hiding behind a large boxwood, and called the Sheriff’s Office. She also called a neighbor, and the man was apparently scared off before police could arrive. Most recently, someone (thought to be the same man) broke into another cabin over the May 16-17 weekend and took some food. He also took a shower, said Mqj. Streapy. Authorities with Shenandoah National Park are also involved in the investigation. The man may be the same person observed in the backyard of a Rileyville home (in Page County). “We want people to take extra precautions,” said Maj. Streapy. “We certainly don’t want people letting him in their house. ” He said the man is not thought to be dangerous. “He hasn’t hurt anyone yet, and I don’t think he intends to,” said Maj. Streapy. “I believe he’s living in the mountains. In the park part or in the county part, I can’t say,” said Maj. Streapy. In other police and court news this week: • No charges were placed following a two-car accident on U.S. 211, two-tenths of a mile west of Route 640, at 7 a.m. May 18, according to Trooper C.M.

Both vehicles were completely destroyed. Trooper S.M. Knick investigated. • David P. Beck, 35, of Flint Hill, was sentenced to six months in jail plus costs and ordered to undergo a year of supervised probation by Rappahannock Circuit Court Judge W. Shore Robertson May 8 for ut taring a check worth less than $200. • Judge Robertson also accepted pleas of guilty to grand larceny and breaking into an auto from Ernest Lee Rooker, 23, of Washington, Va.

Horse business provides way for women to stay in county By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Near* Contributing Writer Rappahannock County extracts a high price for the privilege of residency. With few local jobs and local salaries that haven’t kept pace with increases in the cost of living, the county has earned the dubious distinction of being the leader in outcommuters for the RappahannockRapidan Planning District. Thirtyeight percent of its workforce— more than double the figure for neighboring Culpeper County and from 12 to seven percentages points higher than the rest of the district— drives over the county line for employment. “It’s gridlock in the stress lane for most of those folks,” said Heather Marsh. “I just couldn’t face that bumper-to-bumper highway grind five mornings and five afternoons, week in and week out.” The aversion to commuting posed a dilemma for Ms. Marsh, who was also bom and raised in Rappahannock. “It sounds corny, but my heart’s in the Blue Ridge,” she explained. “I’d have to leave my heart behind if I left Rappahannock and moved to the city to be closer to the big job markets. And remember the lesson from the Wizard of Oz—you can’t be happy if you haven’t got a heart!” So she followed the example of scores of others who’ve managed to have the best of both worlds: she went entrepreneurial and started her own business in order to live and work in Rappahannock County. Ms. Marsh and partner Dafna Laurie are the owners, managers and entire labor force of the new Mountain Springs Stables near Sperryville. “The size of our business may be small, but we’re big on service,” said Ms. Laurie. “And that’s the way we want to stay,” Ms. Marsh added. The partners prove that a small staff doesn’t have to limit the scope of services. Mountain Springs offers trail rides, riding lessons, breaking and training for pleasure and show Business operators Heather Marsh, left, and Dafna Laurie.

For an added plus to the two outdoor rings, there’s an indoor arena for lessons, conveniently located next door to their stable. (It belongs to Natalie Marsh, well-known dressage rider and instructor who just happens to be Heather’s mom.) Access to this facility lets lessons go on rain or shine, day and night, in comfort despite freezing temperatures or muggy, buggy humidity. The Mountain Springs partners come naturally to the horse business. Twenty-five-year-old Ms. Marsh has been fox hunting since she was eight and training horses since college in Providence, R.I. (“An awful place! Living there convinced me I don’t ever want to be in a major city!”) She’s worked for various stables in Virginia’s hunt country, and for the past four years she’s managed a bam for Elizabeth Haskell, former member of the State Water Control Board and currently Virginia’s Secretary of Natural Resources. “I’ve always been around horses and always had horses around,” Ms. Marsh said. Twenty-year-old Ms. Laurie arrived in Rappahannock in 1986 from Prince William County. “But if home is where the heart is, then this is my hometown too,” she said. “I’ve traveled all over the United States, and I’ve never seen any place as beautiful as this or a place that has the same wonderful sense of community.” Ms. Laurie, who graduated from Rappahannock County High School and attended Northern Virginia Community College, has been riding since she was four. She’s a show ring veteran, campaigning—and training—Arabians for Dr. John Aldren of Haymarket. Not only is Ms. Laurie accomplished in equitation and jumping, she’s also an expert in the mounted gymnastics of vaulting, with credits that include a fourth-place in the National Vaulting Championships. “Combined, we have 30 years of horse experience,” Ms. Marsh pointed out. Just as they’re naturals for the horse business, the partners are naturals at teaching, whether the student is a little one astride for the first time or an out-of-practice rider 20 years their senior. They’re quick to demonstrate what to do when telling simply isn’t enough. They’re patient but firm, demanding but never asking for -—.— ....mm.ini ..— Photos for the Rappahannock News by Daphne Hutchinson Mountain Spring Stables* Dafna Laurie gives riding tips to 7-year-old Meagan Towsie of Flint Hill.

This sensitivity sets them apart—all riding instructors are cognizant of hands, heels and knees, but only a few are equally aware of the psyche’s position. “Fear is the great enemy,” Ms. Laurie said. “It’s much easier never to let fear into the riding ring in the first place than to chase it out once it’ssnuck in.” While they hope to establish a local clientele for lessons and horse training, the two young women are also planning to offer special services for the tourist market. They’re aiming primarily at visitors to bedand-breakfast inns who want an upclose-and-personal look at the Blue Ridge foothills. “The best way to see the country is from the back of a horse,” said Ms. Marsh. “We've got the horses, both for novices and experienced riders, and we’ve got the country. Some of the views between Five Forks and Red Oak Mountain have’t changed in a hundred years.” And a unique addition to the ride lets Mountain Springs’ clients take the view home with them. When the partners escort a group on the trails, Ms. Marsh carries along her camera. Her photos are more than just snapshots—for eight years she worked as a professional photographer. “Another try at having the best of both worlds,” she explained. At present, Ms. Marsh and Ms. Laurie can accommodate groups of five, and while they’re still looking for a few good horses to add to their string, they don’t plan on growing by much. “We’re aiming for seven max— we want to be able to give impromptu lessons as we go along, and that’s about as many as we could handle,” Ms. Laurie said. It’s obvious that Ms. Marsh and Ms. Laurie love their jobs. As the partners work, their smiles are as big and as constant as the smiles on the faces of the two little girls who are—at last—achieving their dreams of learning to ride. “Sometimes, 1 have to pinch myself in order to prove this is real,” said Ms. Laurie. “It seems like only yesterday we were sitting around in the kitchen, brainstorming ideas for finding a career in the country. ‘We like horses. We’re good with horses. Let’d do it with horses,’ we told ourselves. So we did.” “And it’s working!” Ms. Marsh added. Mountain Springs Stables is located on Route 620 just east of Sperryville.

The Audit Bureau THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1992 Editorials Panther fever . With any luck at all, and with plenty of support from its home-team fans, the Rappahannock High girls softball team just may find itself in the state playoffs in a couple of weeks. So far the girls have managed the inconceivable this spring, losing only once in 16 games and making the girls volleyball team’s awesome season pale by comparison. Every time they take the field this year the girls were a threat to rack up 10 or 15 runs. They’ve got a first-round bye in the regional playoffs next week, and if they can win twice they’ll be in the state tourney. Being host of regionals can’t hurt the Lady Panthers’ hopes, as long as Rappahannock fans are there to cheer them on. This week the league announced that the Lady Panthers have the Player of the Year, the Coach of the Year and about half of the first-team all-Bull Run District nine. We’re sure Coach Renee Leake would tell you her husband and assistant coach, Gary Leake, deserves at least a small part of the credit for that they have achieved this season. But she gives the team its up-beat character and has made some excellent strategy decisions on the way to the 15-1 record. Congratulations to her and the all-District selectees. As the cliche goes, ‘It’s how you play the game,’ and the girls have shown themselves to be good sports on several occasions this year—situations that were definite tests of their collective character. So no matter how far they go (or don’t go, obviously only one team can win it all), this season has taught the team something about what they can accomplish together. Buckle up Virginia motorists can do their part to make the Commonwealth’s roads and highways safer in the coming months by putting forth an extra effort to keep their seatbelts fastened. The Virginia Department of Transportation is kicking off a summer campaign to increase safety belt usage to 70 percent in the state. The rate is now only 58 percent in Virginia, 59 percent nationwide. The summer campaign focuses on the 101 critical days of summer that include the heavily traveled holidays of Memorial Day, the Fourth of July and Labor Day, when fatalities are the highest. During the summer months, local law enforcement officers throughout Virginia and the State Police will conduct special safety belt and child safety seat enforcement efforts. The Department of Motor Vehicles will also be emphasizing public awareness through educational efforts. r Editorial Platform ‘Where the press is free, and every man able to read, all is safe.’ — Thomas Jefferson The Rappahannock News regards several bedrock issues to be of special importance to the character and heritage of Rappahannock County, and takes these consistent editorial positions on them. 1. Growth and development must be planned and controlled through strong, clear and fairly enforced zoning regulations sensitive to Rappahannock’s character, powerful beauty and the quality of life of its people. Development plans must be reconciled with the county’s Comprehensive Plan, which serves as the essential roadmap to our future. 2. Education standards should be steadily raised and facilities updated in recognition that education is the key to unleashing the potential of our youth. 3. New business and clean industry for economic expansion should be actively sought to provide new employment opportunities here for our residents and their children under conditions which ensure that these businesses are self-supporting, not a burden on the tax base. Tourism and the business that supports it should be strongly encouraged, since they provide revenue without the attendant major public services demanded by other industires. 4. Volunteerism, a hallmark of those who live in this proud and independent community, will be supported and encouraged as a continuing reflection of the strong timber and fierce spirit of the Rappahannock heritage. 5. Recognizing that none of these objectives may be realized without a vigorous, democratic local government, this newspaper will remain politically independent and independently investigage any abuse l of public trust by public officials. etter: School TV is no bargain To the Editor The high school’s proposed bargain with Channel 1 reported in last week’s News was shocking. As described in the article, Rappahannock students are to be compelled to be in their classrooms 10 minutes early, to see and hear eight minutes of sound bite hews and two minutes of ads, in exchange for which the promoter will lend the necessary TV monitors and satellite dish to the school. The news items to be shown will be of the promoter’s selection, previewed by the school' only to make sure they are compatible with the Family Life Education curriculum. The ads will tout “such products as snack food, sport shoes, and clothes that appeal to teenagers.” H is a Daa oargain ior several reasons. First, it is a compulsory pro* gram. The students will be a captive audience for the promoter. As Sharon Percy Rockefeller, CEO of WETA, said, in a recent column explaining the difference between commercial and public TV, “Commercial television’s primary goal is to deliver viewers to advertisers. Public television’s standard is programming that stimulates and informs.” Since Channel 1 is ineluctably commercial, the bargain requires that whatever the proprietor of Channel 1 wishes to say and sell for the 10 minutes must be attended to by the students, excepting only such matter as may be censored by the school’s preview. In a similar situation some years ago, it was proposed to have canned music, interspersed with ads, played on D.C. streetcars. By public outcry, the proposal was defeated, on the grounds that it was unfair to allow a promoter to profit by inflicting his ads and music on a captive audience. Second, it is suggested that the infamous 10 minutes will not come out of “instructional time.” But if the school requires students to enter the classroom early, it necessarily means that the 10-minute period will be instructional time, mandated by the school and supervised by teachers. Third, the bargain is justified by th$ argument that “other schools do it.” We should hope that one of the things our schools is not only able to teach but also to practice is the ability to make critical evaluations for which one is individually responsible. Fourth, the promoter proposes to lend valuable TV equipment to the school in return for getting his captive audience. In his “Modest Proposal” (1729), Dean Jonathan Swift recommended, in a famous bit of savage irony, that the poor of Ireland should alleviate their poverty by fattening their children to feed the rich. In a somewhat similar vein, Rappahannock Heritage Weigela in full bloom. Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan it is now proposed to educate our children to feed Reebok, Adidas, potato chip merchants and the proprietor of Channel 1. The students will know that they have been had. Fifth, the use of school property, and publicly paid teachers who will receive no pay for their extra work to supervise the promoter’s commercial enterprise, is also objectionable. One thinks of the sympathy one has for businessmen who don’t like it when the government turns them into tax collectors! Sixth, a recent book, entitled “Four Reasons to Abolish TV,” develops a case for the proposition that TV is detrimental to brain function. On this point, if it is thought desirable to have students keep up with the news of the day, the extra 10 minutes could be spent with greater profit to the students by having them read and discuss in depth one news iteam each day. Reading, framing an argument, and engaging in a disciplined discussion are all traditional teaching and learning activities. Ten more minutes a day of passive TV watching is something our teenagers don’t really need. Finally, the bargain which it is now proposed that we strike with the promoter appears on the close examination to be like the one Esau entered into with Jacob (Genesis, Chap. 25). Esau, it will be remembered, sold his birthright for a mess of pottage; should we sell our students’ intellectual birthright for a mess of Twinkies? DIANA BIRD LEE BIRD Washington, Va. 30 YEARS AGO May 24,1962 William Printz of Amissville, who is an agent for People’s Life Insurance Company, attended the Life Insurance Underwriters Congress held Friday in Washington, D.C. at the Sheraton Park Hotel. Over 1,000 agents were present for the meeting. Mr. Printz was the lucky winner of the door prize given, a week’s all-expenses paid vacation for two in Las Vegas. There’s music in the air, especially at Rappahannock County High School, where the choir is preparing and practicing for its spring concert. The program will be held on Friday, May 25 at 8 p.m. in the school auditorium. The theme is “A Grand Night For Singing,” and it will consist of religious, patriotic and light music. Admission is 50 cents. The concert offers residents of the county an opportunity to see and “hear” the progress of youth in one of the finer arts. The choir is under the direction of Mrs. Warren Wilbur. An “after theater” party will be held at the home of the Rev. and Mrs. Warren Wilbur for the choir members and their guests. John Amos, VPI’s bee specialist, will give a demonstration at 10 a.m. Thursday at the farm of Henry Wood in Woodville. He will show you how to find the queen; super colonies of bees and how to introduce a new queen, 20 YEARS AGO May 25,1972 Charles Thomas and Wade Frazier representing Rap The time machine From the Rappahannock News back when: pahannock County High School at the Virginia Track and Field Meet held Saturday in Lynchburg each captured a state title. Thomas, who has won every mile race which he has entered, again took his mile in a blazing time of 4:26. This was the first time he had been pushed with real competition. Kevin Cropp of Parry McClure High was second in the race only a few yards behind. After the race Thomas said, “I was determined he was not going to beat me.” This is the second state title for Thomas in the mile. Wade Frazier took the two-ile run to bring home a state victory. In the fifth lap, Wade passed Billy Ward of Vista High,who was the previous state champ in this event. Frazier said, when asked how he felt when he passed Ward: “He was just going too slowly for me, so I passed him.” This is the first state title for him. A public hearing on the budget for Rappahannock County for the fiscal year 1972-1973 will take place Thursday, June 1, in conjunction with the regular June meeting of the Board of Supervisors. The budget which totals $1,117,740 is an increase from a year ago of more than $86,000; however, the levy of $4.10 per hundred valuation was maintained. A carryover of $68,730 made it possible to hold the line. As is usual, education is the imyor item in the budget, with the total funds allocated for schools standing at $794,435. Another large category is public assistance, with $197,515 budgeted. Miss Linda Beth Yakim, an English teacher at Rappahannock County High School, has been named to the roster of “Socially Qualified Women of Virginia.” These women are selected for their “leadership and ability and their service to the community.” In addition to her participation in school sponsored events, she regularly visits patients in the Lynn Care Center, Front Royal, where she lives and helped with baskets for the needy, among other community service projects. 10 YEARS AGO May 27,1982 At a special meeting Thursday night, the Rappahannock School Board voted unanimously to offer Robert T. Chappell a contract as principal of the county high school for 1982-83. Chappell, currently assistant principal at Madison County High School, accepted the offer Friday evening, according to superintendent Robert Estabrook. A native of North Carolina, Chappell is a 1966 graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, earning his bsurhelor’s degree in political science. He was awarded a master’s degree in guidance and counseling from the University of Virginia in 1972, and in 1978 received an endorsement in secondary administration from U.Va. Chappell officially assumes his post on July 1 but will be working closely with Rappahannock’s administration during the preceding month, according to the superintendent. Dr. W. Neal Mayberry, of Luray, will be opening a dental office in Washington in the basement of the Miller building, the town’s former post office. Service will commence on Thursday, June 3, and Dr. Mayberry will see patients each Thursday afterward. As his practice increases, he plans to add Saturday as an additional office day. His reasons for coming to Rappahannock are numerous, not the least of which is that there is no dentist in the county. He feels that it will be enough to start with one day. “Other dentists attempted to set up here but there doesn’t seem to be quite enough need for five days a week,” he noted. Dr. Mayberry says that he is really looking forward to opening his practice next month and to getting to know the people of Rappahannock. Cadet William C. Nichols of Flint Hill, was among more than 200 Virginia Military Institute first classmen graduated in commencement exercises May 15. Cadet Nichols, a civil engineering major, received a bachelor of science degree and a commission as an ensign in the U.S. Navy. He will report to the Naval Nuclear Power School in Orlando, Fla., for further training.

Citizens Continued from page A-1 ate the need for curb and gutters,” Mr. Luke said. Council member Newbill Miller said, “We ought to go on and grant the request.” Mayor Dean Morehouse said that it would present a “problem with equity” since other applicants had been required to post bonds for curbs and gutters along state roads. Lewis Butler asked how long it would take to resolve the issue. He said the Citizens League has been trying to get the subdivision approved for two years.. Mr. Miller said, “I was one who posted the bond. I thought it was ridiculous. I don’t think anyone on the council wants curbs and gutters.” The council decided to continue the public hearing on the application until after the new Subdivision Ordinance was adopted. After considering some other items on the agenda, the council reopened the public hearing on the subdivision ordinance, which has been going on for months. They amended the ordinance to specify that curbs and gutters might be required but only on new streets created by new subdivisions. They also put back in language that says site plans approved under the 1981 subdivision ordinance will be approved under the new one for two years and such approval may be extended for longer by vote of the council. They took out language saying the council might require a study by an independent soil scientist for drainfield approval. They added language that covers subdivisions approved under the old ordinance but not recorded, giving the applicant up to six months to file the plat. Mr. Miller tried again to reduce requirements for site plans for single family dwellings. He said they would be too costly for many lot owners. Other members of the council said most future development in the town would be single family dwellings, and if they were exempted, the ordinance would not cover much. The council then moved to adopt the new Subdivision Ordinance. The motion was unanimous among the six members present. Mr. Miller Paving Continued from page A-1 Madison County will cost $427,055. VDOT inspector Wayne Henry is assigned to insure that the work conforms to contract specifications and he will serve as safety officer, overseeing compliance with work-zone safety regulations. The contractor will be working at various locations, said Larry Garber, Culpeper resident engineer. Motorists should exercise caution when they see the signs warning them of resurfacing operations. Slow down and be prepared to stop. Certified flaggers will provide traffic control at either end of the work zones, and pilot vehicles will lead travelers through the zones. Only short traffic delays should occur. “Please, use caution when driving through construction work zones,” said Mr. Garber. said he felt the time the council had spent on the ordinance had resulted in “a better ordinance.” They then adopted a resolution releasing the bonds for those who had had to post bonds for curbs and gutters. This resolution passed 3 to 0. Brad Fisher, Ray Gooch and Mark Bailey voted for the resolution. Mr. Miller, Mayor Morehouse and Susan Parrish abstained because they have posted such bonds for subdivision in the past. The council then reconvened the hearing on the application by the Citizens League. Mr. Luke withdrew the application and said the plat would be filed on Thursday. The council also set the June meeting for a public hearing on the new budget. They decided to hold a joint public hearing with the Planning Commission on the revised Comprehensive Plan at the commission’s June meeting with the hearing continued until the council’s July meeting. Budget Continued from page A-l printer and document binder. The budget also includes $5,000 to purchase new street lights. Potomac Edison wants to replace the town lights, which are old. Replacement parts are no longer available. The Town Council objects to Potomac Edison’s replacement fixtures. The company has agreed to install different fixtures if the town pays the difference in cost. The budget includes $3,400 for fireworks for the Fourth of July celebration and $1,200 for town decorations. The council will hold a public hearing on the budget at its June meeting. The tax increase will also be considered if the council can’t cut the budget enough to do without the extra half cent on meals and lodging. Career Day successful James T. Futrell Jr., director of guidance at Rappahannock High School, announced the successful completion of the 1992 RCHS Career Day program. This is an effort by the Guidance Department to see that the most up-to-date information concerning job hunting techniques and career opportunities are presented to juniors, and especially seniors. The annual program usually attracts about 25 to 30 skilled and professional workers from Rappahannock and surrounding areas.

It also is asking its employees for their ideas regarding the plan. The study responds to recommendations made last year by a VDOT employee study group alter Gov. L. Douglas Wilder called for a review of V DOT’S organizational structure. The employee study group recommended that the department move toward a structure that would better recognize the unique needs of urban and rural areas. It also recommended use of regional service centers to provide technical support functions for areas larger than a single transportation district. Currently, each of VDOTs nine districts has its own technical support functions. “Andersen Consultants, a division of Arthur Andersen & Co., is looking at those recommendations in depth,” said Commonwealth Transportation Commissioner Ray D. Pethtel. “We have asked them to help identify functions that can be regionalized cost-effectively and to develop an implementation plan. The plan is expected to be completed by the end of this summer.” The department is organized into nine transportation districts, with 45 residencies and 239 maintenance areas - a structure that has changed little since it was organized in 1922. The featured animal at the shelter this week is a 5-year-old female doberman-shepherd, black and tan. Spaying is free. She needs a home with a fenced yard in which to run and play.

VA Kindergarten performs 'Down on the Farm' On Friday, May 15 the kindergarten classes performed a wonderful play called “Down on the Farm.” The play was composed of four stories that the classes had read from their Whole Language Reading Program. The stories were “Mrs. Wishy Washy,” performed by Susan Laueris class; “Who Will Be My Mother,” performed by Geraldine Payne’s class; “The Farm Concert,” performed by Sherri Marquand’s class; and “One Cool Spring Night,” by Carol Atkins’ class. Margaret Ann Way land helped with the stage performances and Grace Caliando helped each teacher make their individual classes costumes. The classes worked very hard for two weeks practicing every day which resulted in a wonderful performance which was very well attended by many proud parents. Mrs. Payne’s kindergarten class is also busy with an interesting science project: hatching eggs. The project idea was suggested by the seventh grade class of Jim Rozak. The Rappahannock Extension Office donated the eggs to the 7th grade, which in turn turned them over to the kindergarteners. The class performed the classic float and sink test to determine which eggs had been fertilized, the results were nine floated and three sank which should result in nine hatching chickens. Since April 29 the eggs have been watched closely by IT'S ELEMENTARY What's Happening at RCES by Diana Corbin many eyes while they warmed in their hatcher, also donated by the Extension Office. Not only has this been an exciting science experience for the students but they have also used it as a calendar project, for math—adding and substracting and also reading. When the eggs hatch they will raffle them off among the classmates in the class, of course with a permission slip from home. Cheryl Alexander and four of her students Emily Bare, Zack Corbin, Drew Dennis and Jeremy Slack presented a report on their Russian Project to the Rappahannock School Board last Thursday evening. These nine and 10-year-olds talked very well to the members explaining their letters and booklets the children have exchanged. Mrs. Alexander’s class had a famous visitor this week, U.S. Rep. George Allen. He came to congratulate them on completing their Russian project. He heard about it and wanted to come and visit the children to express his admiration for a job well done.

Republicans anoint Wolf at convention By JEFF NELSON AiCom Nnapafm 8Ut* Writer Republicans in the 10th Congressional District May 16 in Front Royal selected James Rich of Fauquier County to lead their district committee. Mr. Rich was challenged by Frederick County political consul-tant Bill Wilson and topped Mr. Wilson 211.1 to 194.38 in the district convention. Mr. Rich called the 10th the most Republican district in the state and said the party’s top priority is now the re-election of President George Bush. “Congressman (Frank) Wolf (R10th) will probably be running unopposed. Our top priorities are definitely the re-election of Bush and > (Vice President Dan) Quayle. We also want to play a huge role in electing a Republican governor. We’re ' tired of (Gov. L. Douglas) Wilder and his party’s control of this state,” Mr. Rich said. The 10th District was newly configured, to include much of the Shenandoah Valley, during the General Assembly’s congressional redistricting last year. The changes in district boundaries moved Rep. Wolfs district to the west and virtually eliminated the old 7th District, captured by Republican Rep. George Allen in a special election last year. Rep. Allen is an unannounced candidate for governor of Virginia, having agreed not to run for re-election to Congress. The changes caused some concern among the party officers about how organized the 10th District group would be; the concerns were dispelled by the convention, according to Mr. Rich. “I think whenever you have a new district it takes a while to knit it together. But, I think we’re moving along, and the convention showed GREAT VALUES ON ALL THE POPULAR LAWN & GARDEN SUPPLIES A wide selection of FLOWERING TREES AND SHRUBS Available tor : your Memorial t Day Weekend , T ’ tDonl forget we have herbal Extended Hours Saturdays in our Garden Shop 'til 2PM I 3 Cubic Foot ▼ \ PINE OR 1 ,\HARDWOOD> MULCH $2“ Your choice1 40 lb. l\ • TOP SOIL Spotting soil i COW MANURE $4 88 4 Cubic Foot i PEAT lMOSS >625 «b$t 2000P 2 Gallon ^SPRAYER $2495 WARRENTON FARMERS C(M)P THE W GARDEN! COUNCIL AND GARDEN CENTER 143 Washington Street Memoer Virginia Nurseryman's Association LIFE NEWS were unified behind the president and Congressman Wolf,” Mr. Rich said. Rep. Wolf, who was given the official party nod for the 10th District in April, delivered the keynote address and received enthusiastic endorsements by all candidates for various party committees. Rep. Wolf pledged his support to such Republican legislative mainstays as a reduction in the capital gains tax, securing a line-item veto for the president in budget bills, and passage of a constitutional amendment requiring a balanced federal budget. Rep. Wolf also praised the work of former president Ronald Reagan and President Bush in the dissolution of communism in the former Soviet Union. He proceeded to say that Mr. Bush is on track in his domestic agenda and blamed the breakdown of the traditional family for much of the United State’s domestic ills. “Much of it isn’t because of federal spending, or lack of federal spending. It’s because of the breakdown of the family," Rep. Wolf said to the sustained applause of the more than 400 delegates to the convention. Rep. Wolf called on Congress to pass Mr. Bush’s domestic agenda, laid out in his State of the Union address this year, and singled out the need for an increase in the amount allowed exempted from federal taxes for children. “If the exemption for children had kept up with inflation (since its inception), it would be $8,000. That’s why we need the modest increase from $2,150 to $3,500 that is proposed,” Rep. Wolf said. Conventioners voted in district delegates to the state and national conventions, opting for a mostly moderate slate of candidates despite heavy lobbying for a more conservative slate. Conventioners picked Richard Hendrix, Paul Milo Jr., and Conrad Helsley to represent the district in the state convention. They picked Philip Drew, Jose Santaballa, and Michael Farris to go to the party’s national convention. Loudoun County Supervisor Steven Whitener was picked as the district’s electoral voter in the presidential election. Mr. Rich said the convention presented no evidence of a rift between conservative and moderate groups within the party, though campaigning for party seats was sometimes negative and close. “There is no conservative-moderate rift. I’m definitely a conservative person. There is a group (that) wants to control everything. If you don’t agree with them 100 percent, then they want you out of the party. That’s unrealistic. If they were in control, the party would be whittled down to about nothing,” Rep. Rich said. Democrats to convene in Warrenton The 10th District Democratic Committee Convention will be held starting at 10 a.m. Saturday, May 23 at Fauquier High School in Warrenton. Delegates from Rappahannock County are J. Kent Reeve, Douglas Baumgardner, William Dobrovir and Margaret White. Alternates are Dr. Werner Krebser and Raymond ' Johnson. The Democrats’ main order of business is to elect a candidate to oppose six-term incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. Frank Wolf. Delegates will also vote on party planks and will elect delegates to the Democratic National Convention this summer in New York City. The 10th Congressional District’s one elector for the Electoral College will also be elected. The keynote speaker will by U.S. Sen. Charles S. Robb, D-Va. After the business portion of the convention there will also be a barbecue dinner in the school cafeteria. WEEKEND SALE Saturday—Sunday—Monday ([NEW LEAF BOOKSTORE 20% 15 tl .''ft.

In 1990, nearly 50 million people visited Virginia, spending $8 billion, said Lawrence H. Framme III, Virginia’s secretary of economic development. “This spending directly generated 156,000 jobs for Virginians,” Mr. Framme said, “and contributed more than $600 million in state and local taxes." The 1991 figures are expected to be even higher, he said. In 1991, the Tourism Development Group of the Virginia Department of Economic Development fielded 528,000 requests for travel information, a near record, and advertising-generated inquiries for the first quarter of 1992 are up 10 percent over the last record quarter in 1989, he said. The 1991 combined attendance at Virginia’s attractions, parks and travel centers also grew by 3 percent over 1990. “Visitation increased despite the Gulf War, a recession, and state and local government’s - as well as private industry’s - budget restraints. “This was due to the state being able to capitalize on its proximity to half the nation’s population and to public and private-sector niche-marketing efforts,” Mr. Framme said. Such 1991 cooperative nichemarketing efforts included the Ski Virginia Program and a firstever Virginia golf promotion. Other state and private-sector cooperative efforts include the state tourism offic’s participation in Gov. Wilder’s Partnership for Rural Development. This includes the Tourism Development Group’s marketing of a farm tours publication and launching a Virginia Tourism Accreditation Program. International travel continues to be strong, Mr. Framme said. James Wordsworth, chairman of the Virginia Hospitality and Travel Association, discussed the impact of tourism on the lodging, restaurant food sales and transportation components of the travel industry. Total lodging sales in 1991 reached nearly $1.6 billion, a 1.9 percent decrease from 19k) resulting from the soft economy in 1991 and continued decrease in business travel, Mr. Wordsworth said. “Low room occupancy rates, coupled with stable average room rates and tight credit have produced a lackluster lodging building environment that is likely to continue for several years,” he said. In terms of food services, the retail sales of food in eating places, including restaurants, snack bars and catering services, totaled $4.7 billion in 1991, a 3.4 percent increase over 1990. According to the U.S. Travel Data Center, food services accounts for 26 cents of every travel dollar spent in Virginia. The travel industry also contributes heavily to job growth, Mr. Wordsworth said. Travel industry employment has grown from 4.3 million to 5.9 million in the last decade. The automobile transportation segment of Virginia’s travel industry accounts for 20 cents of every travel dollar spent in the state, which yields nearly a billion dollars annually in ftiel sales, Mr. Wordsworth said. According to the Tourism Development Group’s visitor survey, 83 percent of all Virginia visitors traveled by private motor vehicle. Approximately onefourth of all gasoline is purchased by travelers.

Although science journals are published by many colleges, Serendipity is perhaps the only science journal published by high school students. The journal was started last year by Art Zoebelein of Front Royal. This year department chair Fransi Dunagan of Boston took over the project. The Serendipity staff was led by editor Michelle Egan of Warrenton. The book is divided into five sections. There are numerous, serious articles, drawn from students’ Science Fair projects. The paper from Min Kim’s of Warrenton excellent project examining the velocity of a moth’s wing beat, is included under t*ie title “Night Flight.” Tiffany Kelsey of Warrenton investigated cloud chambers and Michael Irani of Front Royal studied sun spots. But the predominant theme weaving through the book seems to be the student’s concern for the en vironment. From the cover art by Andrew Spezial of Front Royal depicting a fir tree growing from the Earth, to the dedication of the book to faculty member Bonnie Williams of Flint Hill for her “continual efforts to keep the environmental club alive," readers are reminded of this growing problem that affects all of us. Michelle Paine of Delaplane writes on composting, Morgan Butler of Remington on acid rain and Holly Wright of Boston on an Earth devoid of trees. The centerpiece article, “The Environmental Wars,” is by senior Gregg Carrier of Amissville. The well-written and thought-provoking article examines the various dangers facing our environment today. Carrier notes, "Almost everyone agrees on one thing: that the perfect balance which has existed for so long is decaying, and the planet is being drawn closer to its demise.” However, the 52-page undertaking is not limited to serious articles. Serendipity is filled with interesting surprises: numerous cartoons and illustrations, a variety of poetry, and well thought out layout and typography. Kudos to all of the students who contributed articles, poems, and illustrations but especially to the dedicated staff and adviser Mrs. Dunagan. Addendum The name of a Washington, Va. boy was inadvertently left off the list of those Wakefield School (Marshall) students honored for their scores in the 1992 Johns Hopkins Talent Search. Scott Updike was awarded certificates of distinction in all three areas of the test: the SAT verbal and math, and the Test of Standard Written English.

t , ... j ' All-district squad dominated by Panthers softball team * Eight members of the 15-1 Rappahannock High softball team were darned to the All-Bull Run District team by a vote of the league coaches last week. (The district tournament was supposed to start Monday, but rain delays put it off until either Wednesday or Thursday. Call the high school for information on game times. The site is in Stanley, Page County.) * The Lady Panthers placed five players on the all-district first team, and the team had the Player of the Year in Sherfon Boddie and the Coach of the Year in Renee Leake. Making first-team were senior Boddie at first base (she hit .600), junior pitcher Susan Payne (15-1 record), sophomore catcher Dietrich Beaver, sophomore outfielder Marsha Freeman and sophomore designated hitter Leah Marlett. Junior Emma Swatman was voted second-team all-district at shortstop, and junior outfielder Lori Para tore was named to the third team. Second baseman Cyndi Welch, only a freshman, was named to the honorable mention team. After losing its last game of the year to Strasburg last week, a 6-4 disappointment that ruined the girls’ perfect season, the Lady Panthers head into the four-team Bull Run District Tournament as the heavily favored top seed. Regardless how the team does in the tournament, Rappahannock will still get a first-round bye in the regional tournament, and will host the second round game. That is by virtue of their regular-season finish. Rappahannock will host a game on Thursday, May 28, and possibly the regional final, Friday, May 29. The state tournament, if they make it that far, will be June 6-6. Baseball team places two on all-star team Senior Kevin Daymude made the Bull Run District's second team as a third baseman and junior secondbaseman Richie Lillard was voted to the third team in all-star balloting by the league coaches last week. Daymude hit .293 and led the Panthers in RBIs. Lillard had Rappahannock’s best batting average, .302. Panthers Coach Mike Tuppefr said the squad achieved every goal except one—to make the four-team district tournament. But the Panthers’ 6-10-1 record was a definite improvement on last year’s three wins, and many of the early-season losses were dose games. With only three seniors graduating, the baseball team promises to be even more competitive next year. “We’re still young, and we’re going to be young next year too,” said Coach Tupper. “I feel overall it’s been an improvement over last year.” The Panthers ended the campaign on an up note, crushing Strasburg 10-0 last week in a game that saw sophomore pitcher J.C. Welch one-hit the Rams. Welch finished the year with the pitching staffs best stats: a 3-0-1 record and a 3.75 earned-run average. This season the Panthers struggled at times at the plate, but the defense solidified and gave up dramatically fewer errors. “Our defense improved tremendously,” said Coach Tupper. “Errors weren’t the rule this year. We got consistent pitching. But we just didn’t hit the ball as well this year as we did last year."

The district had several good pitchers this season, and it seemed that the Panthers were going up against the other team’s ace every time. “The only goal we didn’t meet this year, and it was a pretty lofty goal, was to make the playoffs. We definitely were competitive, and that’s where we wanted to be,” said Coach Tupper. Seniors Daymude, James Roy and Justin Ferrence are the only players being lost to graduation. And the only juniors are Lillard, Kevin Jolliffe and catcher Mike Jenkins. For next year, said Coach Tupper, “I’d like to be at .600 and I’d like to make the playoffs. It’s up to the boys. If they play this summer, they’ll improve a whole lot.” Wakefield CDS splits in volleyball action Wakefield Country Day School in Huntly won a one-sided volleyball game against Wakefield School in Marshall May 4, 16-1, 16-6, 16-7, 1512.

Perot's organization not what it should be By WALTER DAY As you may recall, I was impressed by the thought of the independent Perot running for the office of president and therefore everyone else in Rappahannock County should follow my lead. However, after seven phone calls and two letters, I have not been able to obtain a petition to sign. I discovered two phony offices in D.C. set up to collect unauthorized contributions and several people who said they were heading up the Virginia and local efforts who promised me they would be in touch. I never heard from any of them again. So much for thinking politics could change. A bunch of volunteers jump to the fore hoping that it meets with success, then claim the reward without being encumbered by any real work. Although disappointed by the workers, I am still impressed with the idea of a candidate who can successfully get into office without owing a party or a special interest. Some folks sneer and say that Perot is buying the office. I say better that than have someone else buy the candidate and put him in office as a puppet. It is also said that a man with no public office experience cannot succeed. I say bull. I say that a person who spends his life with his head in the public trough is good at running for office and nothing else. I read a book once, actually I have read several books, the one I have in mind was titled “The Rich and the Super Rich.” There was a statement therein that claimed that there are five families in the United States that can get a president of their choice elected any time they so decide. Fortunately they spend their effort hanging on to the money they have or trying to get more. The real enemy of representative government is the press, which can determine public opinion. The press does this by ignoring facts and exaggerating facts. Sen. Eugene McCarthy probably has the best platform proposed among the candidates but has been ignored completely by the press. This is not impartial reporting. It is Day By Day blatantly biased. I have gone astray. My intent was to discuss Rappahannock County as the center of the universe and how this has recently been confirmed by the “big bang” theory. There is not enough room now for that discussion. I do want to mention that Richard Abel is about to celebrate a 70th birthday and so I have a poem for him. Richard’s 70th Year (and Mine) Environment Nature’s course, when charged by man Is not seduced by shame or sham, Nor any other whim of greed. The fates will go at random speed And when the forces all agree That they will then recycle me. An observation about humans and their ways: Revelations continue to cloud the reputations of candidates, former candidates and elected officials. If this keeps up long enough it will develop into a requirement. A man will have to be accused of having an affair and then lie about it. It is said that a man is an alcoholic when he stops bragging about how much he had to drink and starts lying about it. I don’t know what this means, but somewhere between 75 and 85 women stop lying about their age and start bragging about it. I have no idea how anyone can use the above information, or maybe I do and am lying. Question: What do you call a boomerang that doesn’t return to the thrower? Answer: A stick. (The opinions of Mr. Day are not necessarily those of this paper.—Ed.) 11th yearly state wine festival slated “Vintage Virginia ’92—the 11th Annual Virginia Wineries Festival,” takes place June 6 and June 7 at Great Meadow Field Events Center in The Plains. The festival features a unique blend of wine tasting, entertainment, arts and crafts, food and fun. It has grown to be one of the largest and most popular wine and food festivals in the country. “Virginia is home to so many great traditions. It is wonderful to see that Virginia wine is fast becoming one of them,” observed Julia Child, honorary chairman of this year’s festival. “Vintage Virginia” offers wine sampling from 35 Virginia wineries, 80 arts and crafts exhibits, regional food, music, grape stomping and more. This looks to be the best year ever, as “the quality of the 1991 vintage,” according to Tom Matthews of “The Wine Spectator,” “should confirm Virginia’s position as the most accomplished of America’s emerging wine regions.” Three stages of live music, sponsored in part by WJZE Jazzy 100 FM, will feature the folk-rock duo of Down Boy Down, the reggae gyrations of George Wesley and the Irietations, Dixieland-style jazz by festival regulars the Ponchartrain New Orleans Jazz Band and modern jazz by D.C. locals Ritmo Junction. The Fearless Airborne Coryury will also return this year with his unique mixture of comedy and juggling performances throughout both days. Tickets for the smorgasbord of wine, food and fun at “Vintage Virginia ’92” can be purchased by calling 1-800-277-CORK. For persons over 21 years old, tickets are (18 in advance, $15 at the gate. For everyone under 21 (who cannot be served wine), tickets are $3. Children under two are admitted free. Designated drivers get special status Diet Pepsi will sponsor a comprehensive Designated Driver Program for “Vintage Virginia ’92” - the 11th Annual Virginia Wineries Festival. A 1989 Gallup poll found that nearly two-thirds of adults who drink designate a non-drinking driver when attending Bocial events where alcoholic beverages are served - a responsible choice that will be promoted by Diet Pepsi with complimentary PepsiCola products for all designated drivers 21 years ami older at “Vintage Virginia *92.” All “Vintage Virginia *92” designated drivers will receive a brightly-colored plastic wristband as they enter the festival. The wristband will then entitle designated drivers to complimentary PepsiCola soft drinks at booths located throughout the festival site. Although designated drivers will not be able to sample wines at the event, they will be able to purchase unopened bottles and take part in all of the festival Ain - wine education seminars, jazz, folk and reggae music, arts, crafts and great food - the only catch is that they will have to wait to enjoy their fine Virginia wines. 'Rhythms' grew out of author's recent move By MARKSCOLFORO Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer Chris White, the Washington, Va. playwright, record producer, wife and mother, has “never met a weak character” in her life, “either male or female.” Her new play “Rhythms,” which is being performed in Washington, Va. at the Ki Theatre Building (the old town hall) at the end of May, features seven female characters, and none of them are weak. Ms. White started on the full-length, one-act play shortly after she moved with her family to Rappahannock County last year. It’s the first “straight play” (as opposed to a musical) she’s written in five years of marriage, and the topics reflect where she is in her life, she said. Set in Rappahannock County in 1991, the play explores themes of birthing, music, food, sex, nature—those elements of life that have rhythmic features. The setting, said Ms. White, "is the first time I’ve ever felt like I was in love with a place. It’s something I felt on a lot of different levels. [Rappahannock] feels for me very female in its energy. It’s one of the reasons this is an all-female cast.” On a basic level, “Rhythms” is concerned with the lives of the seven women, and how they live them. One of the characters, a 30-year-old writer named Gretchen, remarks early in the play, “I have my little pattern, you know; I plug in the coffee pot, take a shower, listen to the news, get a cup of coffee, feed the birds, feed the fish, get dressed, face, hair, all that, lock the locks, always in the same order.” Those patterns are the rhythms of life for Ms. White’s characters. Their speech patterns and the use of quasi-musical props add to the cyclical effect. The play isn’t all seriousness, however. It deals with many of life’s everyday aspects, so the audience is expected to see some humor and irony in the women’s lives. “I think what makes it so interesting to watch is the intimacy of it,” said Ms. White. “It’s very intimate and very real, I think. And the acting is very high caliber. We have some very exceptional women in the cast.” “Because it’s real, it’s funny,” she said. “There are definitely some funny moments. I don’t want people to think that it’s a big, heavy thing. It’s got that side, but it’s got some humor, too.” Diana Morgan, left, and Robin Herr rehearse last week. The cast may be all female, but there’s plenty of talk about men. “I think it would be as valuable or probably more valuable for men than women," said Ms. White. She holds a degree in theater from the University of Colorado and did further study at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute in Los Angeles. Her previous work has been produced in New York City at the 13th Street Theatre and the 18th Street Playhouse, and in Boulder, Colo, at The Guild. One of her other plays, ‘‘Paper Thin,” consisted of two men, living in New York City. Another play, “Skin Tight,” featured an anthropology student who falls in love with a bag lady. The musical “Dreams of Delivery” (composed with Mr. Kater) was “inspired by an environmental, feminine awareness.” She said the musical is most like “Rhythms” of all her other works. She has directed plays before, and produced her husband Peter Rater’s recordings, but this is the first time she has produced a play. “Producing is a special challenge. During the last couple of weeks things have started flooding in, all the details,” she said. The cast features local actors Dinah Pehrson-Day, Page Smith, Robin Herr, Sheila Simms Watson, Belinha Beatty, Diana Morgan and Stephanie Mastri. Tickets are $7 in advance, $8 at the door. They are available at Mountainside Market in Washington, the New Leaf Bookstore in Warrenton, Better Thymes in Front Royal, Culpeper Music, Feather on the Wind in Charlottesville, and Down to Garth in Sperryville. For more information call 937-3110. Rappahannock News Staff Ptartos/C'indy Mahan Page Smith and Belinha Beatty play two of the seven women characters in Chris White's 'Rhythms.' The cast was drawn from this area. Plunky concert kicks off season of RAAC shows In addition to this Saturday’s concert at The Theatre at Washington, Va. by James “Plunky” Branch, the Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community (RAAC) has scheduled three performers in the coming months, all with national reputations: Robin and Linda Williams, California and Freyda and the Atta Boys.

Ironically, John Kennedy ultimately answered his own question, as did all of those who died In dedication to our nation ... and each of their answers was written in blood. "... auk not what your country can do for you; auk what you can do for your country." Jcnpture* Selected by The American BdMe Society Copyright 1993. Keener William* Newspaper Service*. P 0 Boa BOOS.

As a result, therapy is, for the most part, short-term and intensive. Most stays are for no more than two to three weeks.

Used properly, bananas can be a nutritious and tasty addition By HELEN W. SMITH Rlffuannock New* Contributing Writer Did you know Americans consume over 25 pounds of bananas per person per year? . . . bananas are thought to be the earth’s first fruit?. .. there is no such thing as a banana tree?... bananas have almost no fat or sodium? . . . bananas are a good source of potassium? . . . bananas are available all year round - they are harvested every day of the year? The life of a banana Most people do not realize that bananas are not grown on trees but are actually grown on plants that are giant herbs, which are of the same family as lilies and orchids. The stalk of these plants is composed of soft, overlapping leaves and can grow as high as 25 feet, making the banana plant the largest on Earth without a woody stem. This perennial plant does not grow from a seed either, since sprouts form from the same root, called a rhizome, year after year. The banana plant thrives in tropical weather with an average temperature of 80 degrees and an annual rainfall of 78-98 inches. Moist soil with good drainage is a must. Bananas are bursting with good nutrition Bananas have a well-deserved reputation for their good supply of nutrients - but few people realize HOME ECONOMICS just how healthful they really are! Bananas are an excellent source of potassium, B vitamins, including a rich supply of vitamin B6, as well as vitamins A and C. Besides potassium, their mineral content includes calcium, magnesium, manganese, phosphorous and 100 percent available iron. They are 98.5 percent fat free, have no cholesterol and, contrary to old wives’ tales, are moderate in calories. Using and storing bananas Bananas come in different stages of ripeness. Green bananas are very firm, but as they ripen the green color turns yellow. As the fruit ripens, the starch in the fruit turns to sugar - so the riper the banana the sweeter it will taste. The dark spots that appear on a banana indicate the degree to which the conversion has progressed. Green tipped bananas are best for use in cooking, such as in a side dish or as a vegetable; full yellow bananas are excellent for eating out of hand or adding to cereal or salads; and brown specked bananas are best for baking in breads and cookies.
