Supreme Court tax decision favors catalog, mail marketers Faith Mountain, Country Manor express relief SPCA, library get budget increases By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappthannocfc Newt Staff Writer Most of the people who came out for the Board of Supervisors’ public hearing on the county budget Monday night came to support increases in county funds for the library or the Rappahannock Animal Welfare League (RAWL) which manages the animal shelter. Ed Barton, new president of the Friends of the Rappahannock Library, said that the state contribution to the library will be cut by 10 percent. With the cuts proposed by the supervisors to hold the county’s share to this year’s levels this amounts to a budget shortfall of $6,500, Mr. Barton said. He offered the supervisors a deal. He said if the supervisors agreed to increase the county’s share by half of the difference in what had been originally requested and last year’s amount, the Friends would pick up the rest of the shortfall. The supervisors agreed to the deal and increased the county’s share from $34,451 to $36,834. Hampton District representative Mike Massie, who had proposed last month that the library try to live with the same amount next year as this year, agreed to the increase but insisted that the Library Board not come back to the supervisors requesting more money. “It’s important to us when we do a budget to set a figure and stick to it and not say if there is a shortfall, come back,” he said. “If you do that, you don’t have a budget,” he added. Paul Reynolds presented RAWL’s case. Currently RAWL is getting $400 per month to operate the shelter. The organization had requested that the contribution be increased to $500 per month. Mr. Reynolds said that the minimum cost if the county were operating the shelter would be $560 per month for a person to feed See BUDGET, Page A-8 By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer For Rappahannock’s two mail order houses a U.S. Supreme Court decision last week was welcome news indeed. In a case involving the state of North Dakota and a business supply catalog business in Nebraska, the ^ 'Suprente*'Cotirt rtflM 8 to«* 4ln* states could not require mail order companies in other states to collect their sales taxes. The court did leave the door open for Congress to pass legislation on sales taxes and direct marketers. Martin Woodward of the Faith Mountain Company said, “This decision is the best thing that could happen to the catalog industry.” He noted that not only are there 50 states wanting to have mail order companies collect sales taxes, but also some jurisdictions within these states want their taxes collected. He said that there are about 6,500 taxing jurisdictions all hoping to collect taxes from mail order companies. He said he expected legislation to be introduced in Congress. “The good news is we will not be liable for state sales tax in the immediate future,” Mr. Woodward said. “This takes it out of the legal arena and puts it into the political arena, where the direct marketers will get to tell their side of the story. ” Mr. Woodward said he hopes when the issue is finally resolved, Tight budgets have left states scraping for money, Ubutit would have been an <~&nmanUgable tax the way these states were trying to pursue it. ’ — Jimmy Swindler Country Manor the process will be simple. He suggested that the same percentage could be collected for each state. He said he had investigated how to comply if the Supreme Court had ruled in favor of North Dakota. He said there is a computer software program available that costs about $30,000 that would keep track of sales taxes owed by zip code. Besides the cost of the software, he said, there would also be the cost of an additional employee to make certain all the forms were filed correctly and checks sent out to the various taxing jurisdictions. He said many small businesses could not Perot supporters meet to plan local campaign By SHARON KILPATRICK Bafpahawiock Ncwi Staff Writer A small group of county residents got together last Wednesday to organize in support of Texas billionaire Ross Perot’s independent candidacy for President. Charles Glass of Front Royal, 10th District coordinator of Virginians for Perot, got the group together at the library to begin organizing for the campaign even though Mr. Perot has not yet announced his candidacy. Bob Smith of Washington will be chairman of the county organization. John Lekander and Julie Music will serve as co-secretaries. The group has already started petitioning to have Mr. Perot’s name included on the presidential ballot. Petitioning will continue through June 12. Supporters are required to get the signatures of one half of one percent of the registered voters. They are trying to get closer to 10 percent and are nearing that goal of 300 signatures in Rappahannock County. Mr. Glass said for the election they fhould try to have a captain for each of the county’s six precincts with two or more people working in each precinct at the neighborhood level. He also urged them to encourage ' contributions to help cover the ex 7 smell politics as usual/ — Walter Day reacting to request for donations to Perot presidential campaign penses of the Virginians for Perot, explaining that the organization has Jhad expenses in having buttons and bumper stickers made. They have also had to pay for telephone banks in Richmond and Northern Virginia. Mr. Glass said the contributions wouldn’t be going to the Perot campaign, since Mr. Perot isn’t officially a candidate, but strictly to the state organization. Walter Day of Flint Hill questioned the wisdom of requesting contributions. He said, "The thing making Perot stand out in my mind is that he would not owe anybody for anything. I smell politics as usual.” Mr. Perot has said if he decides to run, he will finance the campaign himself. He has also said people could contribute $5 so they feel they have a stake in the campaign. Mr. Day suggested contributions be limited to $5. have survived such costs. Jimmy Swindler of Country Manor said he was “thrilled” by the court ruling. He said the company had been receiving correspondence from the state of Texas for two years asking that its sales tax be collected. “We ignored it, knowing that this case was in the courts,” he said. He agreed that the mail order business would eventually have to collect sales taxes. He said he understood that retailers consider it unfair that they have to collect sales tax, while those in the catalog business escape it. He said he also realizes states are feeling strapped for revenues, “but it would have been an unmanageable tax the way these states were trying to pursue it.” Mr. Swindler said he hopes when the issue is finally resolved, the tax will be owed to the state where the order is filled. He said Virginia is in a good position because while its four and a half percent tax is higher than some, it is lower than most. He said Virginia has already attracted several large mail order businesses. “It would be a real boon to Virginia, if it can be done that way,” he said. County must tax tools, business No exemptions found By SHARON KILPATRICK < Nflmnwk N«wi Staff Writer - *. Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke told the Board of Supervisors at Monday’s meeting that he had received an ‘Informal” opinion from the Attorney General’s office that the county did have to adopt a machinery and tools tax and either a merchants’ capital tax or business licenses. Mr. Luke said that the Attorney General’s office did not want to issue a formal opinion that would become a part of the record, but he did get a two-page letter from Roger Wiley, senior assistant attorney general, saying that there was nothing in law allowing counties to exempt such property from taxation. “What happens if we don’t impose the tax?” Piedmont District representative Charles K. “Pete” Estes asked. Mr. Luke answered, “I can’t find anything in the code that imposes a penalty or indicates the state can take it out of other funds, but it could come back to haunt you.” Chairman Hubert Gilkey suggested County AdSee TAXES, Page A-8 Marching music Rappahannock Newt Photo/Cindy Mahan The RCHS Marching Band provides music for the Sperry ville Firelighters’ Parade, held May 28.

Walters returned, faces escape, B&E charges James Preston “Dickie” Walters was returned to Rappahannock County from Roanoke May 28 to face charges stemming from his escape last year, according to Sheriff John Henry Woodward. Walters was arrested in Roanoke for trespassing, and held when authorities there discovered he was wanted here for escape. He was convicted of trespassing, Woodward said, and sentenced to 12 months in jail. Walters will serve that time while in custody here. In addition to the pending escape charge, Walters is also charged with breaking and entering and grand larceny, and is awaiting sentencing on convictions on two counts of breaking and entering and two counts of grand larceny, Woodward said. The sheriff said that, including time for a parole violation in Warren County and the sentence from Roanoke, Walters is facing 4'/2 years in jail — plus any sentence he receives for the other offenses. In other police news: • A report of a possible plane - crash near Chester Gap was apparently unfounded, according to Sheriff Woodward. About 6:30 p.m. May 28, aChester Gap resident called the Warren County Sheriffs Office to report he saw a small plane he thought was in trouble. His description of the flight path put it somewhere in the area of Route 635 near the Fauquier County line, Woodward said. The area was searched from the ground and by a Virginia State Police helicopter with heat-sensing equipment, and nothing was found. • Stereo equipment was taken from two cars during the past week. On May 26, Lewis Compton reported that someone broke into his 1987 Ford Mustang while it was parked at the Rappahannock County Park. A cassette player, amplifier and equalizer were taken, Woodward said. Sometime during the night of June 1, Michael Brown’s 1991 Ford Explorer was entered while parked outside his house across from the Rappahannock Elementary School. A speaker and amplifier valued at $550 were taken, Woodward said. ,The truck was not locked, he added. • Chris Miller reported May 31 that thieves took two lamps at the entrance to his home on U.S. 211 near Hillsdale during the previous night. Miller said the lamps were valued at $200. • An accident with a deer May 28 left a Sperryville man with $1,500 damage to his truck, according to Virginia State Trooper R.J. Davis.

Philip Smiley wins at state competition By BRYAN CLARK, HISTORIAN and RON VICKERS, ADVISOR Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer* Early in May, several Rappahannock technology students attended the Technology Student Association state conference in Richmond. This year the event was called Technosphere ’92. The conference, which was held May 1st through 3rd, included elections of new officers, demonstrations, social events, and competitions. The students did very well in the competitions, which included contests similar to those at the regional TSA conference, as well as some group competitions which are not practiced on the regional level. Philip Smiley won a first place trophy for his humorous safety poster. Clint Carlson’s unusual design for his checkerboard caught the judges’ eyes and won third place in the Materials Processes competition. Jesse Rogers won third place in the Aerospace Technology contest for his balsa wood glider. In other events, Rappahannock entered a Technology Bowl team again this year, Joe Dunagan, Clint Carlson, and John Dwyer represented our school very well. Students individually took a written test and the top 10 teams with the highest composite score were ranked in the finals. Our team won the first round of the oral finals but lost a close match in the second round. We went on to place third in the state. A problem solving team consisting of John Dwyer and Clint Carlson solved the problem given but did not place. Students were to produce a working coin sorter with materials provided. In the Control Technology contest, students had to design a solution to a given problem using Lego bricks, motors, and gears. Solutions were judged and teams with the best designs went on to the finals. They used the Logo computer language to program their machine to be controlled by a press of a button. This year’s problem of making an enve Photo courtesy RCHS RCHS students, from left, Clint Carlson, Justin Day, John Dwyer, Jesse Rogers, Tucker Rogers and Philip Smiley competed.

Slayton Jr., State Coordinating Officer. “Doorto-door salesmen often use scare tactics and high pressure tactics. Check with your city or county officials. The best contractors are those in your area who have a reputation for good work. Mr. Slayton also suggested that you ask the contractor for the names of recent customers. “Call them to determine if the contractor’s work was satisfactory. Good contractors are usually working. You may need to wait your turn, but quality repair work is worth the wait,” he said. These suggestions can help you avoid being victimized by unscrupulous contractors. • Always question offers that seem too good to be true because they probably are. If a product or service is good and the cost reasonable, chances are it would be advertised nationally and available locally through established businesses. • When renting equipment, read and understand all terms and conditions. Know who is responsible for repairs or replacement of the equipment. Is the unit big enough to do the job? Is there are penalty if you keep the item longer than the original rental period? - >• • Cleaning such items as carpets, drapes and furniture can be costly and, at times, risky. Whether doing it yourself or having it done commercially, know the dangers. Is there a chance of fading, shrinking or odor? Who will be responsible for possible damage? • Who guarantees the product or service? What idoes the guarantee cover? For how long? Will you be able to contact the vendor a year from now? Make sure the guarantee is in writing and that you understand all the conditions. • You may be contacted regarding new, simple, inexpensive and easy methods of waterproofing basements. Most of those methods are ineffective. Check with several local contractors or a local building inspector to be sure <ff what you are getting. • Someone may offer to sanitize your basement by spray or other methods. Most of these applications are expensive and do little, if any, good. • Many different types of wood, metal, plastic and combination water barricades may be advertised. Again, few have been proven successful. • Get more than one opinion. Ask for estimates from reputable contractors who have established businesses in your area. • Make sure your agreement is in writing. Consumers have three business days to cancel a contract if they are solicited at home. • Never give anyone cash advances. A request for a cash advance is a good sign your work will not be completed or is not necessary. Those who believe they have been the victim of a scam are urged to call the Virginia Division of Consumer Affairs.

Rappahannock Jtetos 703-675-3338 Communication key to anti-drug battle By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer About 40 people came out for the first of a series of workshops on preventing drug abuse with State Trooper Gary Settle at the Washington Fire Hall Tuesday night. The series sponsored by the Community Coalition Working for Healthy Youth (CCWHY) will continue with another workshop in July. Trooper Settle brought with him a case of confiscated drugs and drug paraphenalia, including roach clips, small scales and various pipes. There was a display of several prescription pills and their illegal copies. He said that crack cocaine use is increasing locally as is the use of LSD. “Let’s not be naive; drugs are here,” he said. Trooper Settle defined drug abuse as “using natural or synthetic chemical substances for non-medical reasons.” He said drub abuse follows a pattern starting with experimental use, progressing to more frequent use, then to preoccupation with getting the drug, and finally to total dependency. He suggested four steps to prevent drug abuse. “It begins with communication,” he said. Secondly he said parents should help their children develop a healthy self impage. He said parents should teach a strong system jLets not be naive; drugs are here. — Trooper Gary Settle of values including giving facts to their children. Finally, he said parents should encourage their children to be in activities with a healthy atmosphere. “You can’t make a brand new start,” he told the group, “but you can start now and make a brand new ending.” Trooper Settle also showed a video of an FBI agent talking with parents about raising drug-free children. Anne Kerr, one of the leaders of CCWHY said she hoped the group would also get involved in finding activities to channel the interests of youth away from drugs. She suggested sponsoring more dances, a theater group, newsletters for youth, radio and video production as other activities the group could become involved with. “It will be a terrible waste if we let this continue,” Mrs. Kensaid. “The cost is astronomical.” Some of the people attending signed the networking agreement to ensure that parties in their homes are drug- and alcohol-free, and chaperoned.

On the administrative level, the number and types of grants the school division has received have supplemented the budget in these tight times, causing the schools to grow even as the economy has contracted. Although the six-figure RJR-Nabisco grant was the most dramatic (providing computers built into desks to make better use of sometimes cramped conditions), in fact there has been a series of grants coming into Rappahannock. The superintendent saw the potential, then motivated the staff to pursue the grants. This year saw the first graduations of the Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE) students, and the formation of the Community Coalition. Working for Healthy Youth (CCWHY) group, both of which are steering our children away from drug abuse. The Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) got new life this • year, drawing on the enthusiasm of elementary school parents to participate in their kids’ education. Both CCWHY and the PTO are tangible examples of parents being active in the schools—and that occurs less ,and less frequently these days, in most places. Scores on standardized tests continued to rise for county children this year, and part of that increase is due to a better and better educational system (and yes, part is due to changing demographics). Test scores aren’t the whole ball of wax when it comes to education, but when they’re going up as dramatically as they have been, someone’s doing something right. Teachers, administrators and the School Board continue to show a reasonable and responsible approach to the annual budget-making. With so few taxpayers footing the bill here, : it’s more important that the planning and budgeting - processes are handled well. Successful budget negotiations with the Board of Supervisors are the best sign that communication and realism are alive and well. The schools’ extra-curricular programs saw healthy • participation this year, and the numbers of high school students on varsity and junior-varsity sports teams rose . significantly. The girls’ volleyball and softball teams were the : highlight of the sports year, showing that Rappahannock’s tiny enrollment doesn’t mean it can’t compete with the ; valley’s perennial sports powerhouses. • i ARE YOU BETTER OFF NOW THAN YOO WERE POOR YEARS ASO 9 mmmmmmxmsammmw Rappahannock Heritage The county’s first DARE class was graduated last week.

Because of your participation it was a great success. A special thank you goes to the following: Washington Volunteer Fire Department for the use of their facility. Our waiters and waitresses, Jim Swindler (top producer), Doug McCabe, Pat Davis, Butch Zindel, Frances Foster, Diane Bruce, Frank Reynolds, Bob Scott and Brad Fisher, for all their hard work as well as their entertainment. All the area businesses who gave a contribution: Flint Hill Store, Laurel Mills Store, Baldwin’s Grocery, Flint Hill Public House, Four and Twenty Blackbirds, Country Cafe, The Inn at Little Washington, Bleu Rock Inn, The Appetite Repair Shop and Country Manor. Bill and Maurie Payne and Phil Irwin for their continued community support. To all the members of the Heart Association who contributed appetizers, salad, rolls, main dishes and desserts. As well as an extra special thank you to Barbara Burke, Jon Heddleston, Marie Davis, Sandra Jenkins, Lillian Aylor, Betsy Murray, Gil and Betty Webb, Pat and Charles Whorton and Helen Smith. We look forward to next year! BEVERLY S. ATKINS Washington Drama club a smash hit! To the Editor: If you saw the show you already know. If you missed it, why did you? It was such up-beat entertainment, so much good fun, and so well done. The RCHS Drama Club is setting standards of performance for our community that are truly hard to beat. What is very easy to improve on, however, is the community support. The opening night audience didn’t begin to fill the auditorium. The student cast that had worked so hard and achieved so much deserved the appreciation of a full house and the louder laughs and spontaneous applause that the fine comedy performance deserved. As a long-time professional actordirector I have to admit that I was pleasantly surprised. The actors, the director, the production and technical crew all did so much better than I could have hoped for, especially when you consider that everyone had so much else to do, so late in the school year. Believe it, cast and crew, I am so proud of you. But let’s be more specific. The play performed at RCHS on May 28 and 30 was the romantic comedy “Crossing Delancey” by Susan Sandler, the setting and the characters typical of Eastside New York City in the not too distant past. Faculty producer Lori Pfalzgraf followed last year’s success of “The Miracle Worker” with the Drama Club’s second hit in a row. She was fortunate this year to have Susan Estes back from college in time to assume responsibility for the final direction. Ms. Estes has not only proven herself to be a talented and dependable actress but she has fine instincts and creative insight to become a skilled director. We encourage her to keep up the good work. The two-act frill length play was given splendid interpretation by the five student actors, all of whom were given rewarding parts to perform. Jennifer Foster was confident and delightful as the igenue lead, Izzy (Isabelle) who finally was able to decide which man would be best for her to share her life. Her love scenes and especially her monologues were well played. Alice Reeve had the biggest acting challenge in portrayal of a middle-aged ethnic grandmother. Her characterization, folk-dancing and especially the creative contributions she brought to Bubbie were wonderful to witness. Heather Rossiter brought just the right balance of ethnicity and aggressiveness to the irritating marriage broker, Hannah. She worked very hard to be believable in a difficult role and she was, creating an effective foil for Bubbie. J Swofford was convincing as Tyler, the “other man,” a sophisticated, self-centered author whose intentions to Izzy are not always honorable. This was Mr. Swofford’s first acting challenge and we hope it will not be his last. Sam the Pickleman, the romantic leading man who wins Izzy at the end of the second act, was played by Jason Fox with quiet charm, good timing and a lot of real humor. Mr. Fox has grown so much in confidence and acting skills since last year that he was a joy to watch. The audience was rooting for him the entire evening. A word of appreciation must go to the technical crew, to Jeremy Tole, back from UVa. to take charge of setting the stage lighting, to Joe Dunagan, Justin Davis and Clint Carlson for the attractive and workable setting, to Maggie Rogers for fine help with the costumes, and to Katrina Lindholm, Tim Mahoney and Carrie Naramore for production assistance wherever it was needed. Special thanks to the good RCHS friends who loaned props and helped with a myriad of services. Finally, thanks to those wonderful neighbors who bought tickets and gave support where it was most needed, “out front” on both nights. BOB SCOTT Castleton 30 YEARS AGO June 7,1962 Tuesday, June 12 is an election day for the town of Washington, Va., when a mayor and six councilmen are to be elected. This will be a write-in vote for no candidates have qualified for the offices. Outgoing mayor, Mrs. Wallace Critzer, made a statement several weeks ago that she would not seek reelection and would not accept the office on any conditions. Washington has been ruled by “ladies” for the past 12 years. In 1950 an all-woman slate was voted into office in a write-in election. Pvt. Richard A. Brown, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul F. Brown of Rt. 1, Sperryville, has begun his basic combat training at Fort Jackson, S.C., where he has been assigned to Company C, 18th Battalion, 5th Training Regiment of the U.S. Army The time machine ..,v# ... . ' . *£V « •Ftom the Rappahannock News back when: Training Center, Infantry. During his basic training he will be introduced to a wide variety of infantry skills, along with intensive physical conditioning. He will attend classes in the traditions of the service, character guidance, and the role of the Army in the world today. 20 YEARS AGO June 8,1972 A Highway Department attempt to justify its plans * to replace an iron truss bridge in Rappahannock County came a crooper at last Thursday’s meeting of the county Board of Supervisors. But if Resident Highway Engineer James Skeens appeared slightly embarrassed, he got the Supervisors’ endorsement, anyway, for tearing down the old bridge at Laurel Mills and replacing it with a new, concrete structure. He had first wanted them to do it by a resolution including a “whereas” stating that “the bridge has questionable strength when used by a loaded school bus.” Chairman Newbill Miller expressed surprise. “I don’t understand the purpose of this resolution,” he l stated, adding that in all of his experience as a Supervisor, the Highway Department had never before asked for such a resolution. “I’m not an engineer,” Miller added. “I don’t know whether the bridge , is structurally sound or not.” “I don’t either,” said Skeens. 10 YEARS AGO June 10,1982 A family foundation has awarded a $20,000 grant to Sursum Corda School and Day Care Center, according to director Camille Harris. “It is survival money,” she emphasized. Harris added that the same foundation will provide another $20,000 toward the center’s operational deficit next year, contingent upon effective use of this year’s award and upon meeting local fund raising goals. “So what the grant has done is give us two year’s breathing space,” the director noted. The money will help replace the $55,000 lost by the day care center from budget cuts implemented by the Reagan Administration in the Comprehensive Employment Training Act (CETA) and other federal programs.

Democratic successes in Va. imperiled by feuding, scandal By JOHN GOOLRICK Democrats who gather in Roanoke June 5-6 for the party’s state convention aren’t apt to be a happy lot. The gathering will come fresh on the heels of Gov. L. Douglas Wilder’s extraordinary press conference in Washington when he angrily lashed out at U.S. Sen. Charles S. Robb and members of his staff for allegedly trying to destroy his presidential bid. It will also come at a time there is speculation Robb may be indicted by a federal grand jury since his former chief advisor and friend David McCloud turned on him in a plea-bargaining deal. McCloud, in effect, said Robb was not telling the truth about his knowledge of the famous Wilder tape when he testified before a grand jury. The presumption of innocence until guilty is proven is basic to the American system of justice. Yet that presumption doesn’t necessarily apply to politics and politicians, and Robb has suffered grave damage to his once flawless reputation. Nobody is saying it publicly yet, but there is certainly whispered talk going on in both parties about whomight be a suitable replacement for Robb should he be forced to step down before his present term ends. Or, for that matter, who might run in 1994 should he be able to serve out his term. A Robb resignation — not beyond the realm of possibility should he be indicted — is still a longshot because it would mean Wilder could Old Dominion Politics appoint his successor until someone could be chosen in an election. The thought of that occuring would be enough to make Robb gag and stand fast. One obvious Democratic choice might be former Gov. Gerald Balilies, though Wilder would not be likely to select him if presented with the opportunity. Wilder could even choose himself if he wanted, but that kind of move would surely doom him when general election time came. On the Republican side, Col. Oliver North of Iran-Contra fame is already testing the waters for a run against Robb two years hence. Marshall Coleman and State Sen. Mark Earley are among others who might be interested. When Robb was elected in 1988, everyone thought the Senate seat was his as long as he wanted it. Now that has dramatically changed. Should he survive through the present term, he would have rough going in 1994 should he manage to get renominated, since any Republican challenger would almost certainly make the character question the central issue. Virginia Democrats were euphoric when Robb won and a year later they again managed to win all statewide races. Now they are faced with the spectacle of the state’s two best known Democrats openly waging war against each other and one of them the target of federal prosecutors. Memories will also be fresh of the pounding Democrats took in state legislative races last fall. Of course, there’s a presidential race to get involved in this year, but the likely party nominee, Gov. Bill Clinton of Arkansas, isn’t doing well in national polls and hasn’t demonstrated any widespread following in Virginia. And, too, when Wilder complained about a memo written by a Robb aide saying that he and some close advisors were often petty and vindictive, he failed to point out this is precisely the way the Governor is viewed by some of the most powerful Democrats in the General Assembly. When Robb and Wilder started feuding, their primary motive was undoubtedly to wound the other politically. Instead, they have succeeded in ripping apart a party that came back from the dead in the 1980s but now appears more divided than ever. After all, who’s left to give the prerequisite unity speech in Roanoke, Widler? Robb? Or state Democratic party chairman Paul Goldman? You gotta be kidding. (Editor’s note: John Goolrick, a former political reporter, is now an aide to 7th District Rep. George Allen. Opinions expressed are his awn.) Random thoughts There have been some isolated thoughts through my head over the past week or so. None of it seemed to want to come out the end of my fingers. What thoughts? The spoiling of the ecology, the National Debt, fraud, riots, starvation in the world, communist collapseresulting needs, political corruption, those thoughts. Another thought that troubles me is that I am getting older, that doesn’t scare me from a mortal sense but in relation to all those other problems. It is getting a little late for me to do anything sustantial about them. There was a time, about eight years ago, when I retired that I fooled myself into a tranquil state. I had paid my dues, now I would at last be able to golf and fish and watch the children and grandchildren thrive and prosper. I would tell them how it used to be to walk five miles to school, work ten hours everyday on the farm, pain and deprivation and other exagerations. But thinking and reading have taken their toll. It has occurred to me that most of the troubles of the world, at least in this hemisphere have happened during my life Jime. The world was not in this bad a shape when I arrived. I am feeling guilty, those same children and grandchildren are going to pay the bills for the spoilage of my generation in search of comfort and Day By Day the don’t bring me no bad news attitude. My senior citizen generation has massive experience, most of the money, general fair health and not much else worth doing in comparison. What can we do? I am not sure but certainly getting angry would be a good start. Voting incumbents out might be constructive. Holding AARP’s feet to the fire might be good. AARP claims to be the defender of senior citizens. Perhaps we should get their supposed massive lobby force working for the cause. It seems to me that AARP doesn’t do much except sell advertising space so that money makers can sell the subscribers, that is us, the senior citizens, things we don’t need. A quick audit might tell us what they really do with the profits. They are a little like the Red Cross, when a cause is imminent they get volunteers to go out and beg for money, then distribute government donated PIEDMONT ENVIRONMENTAL COUNCIL Protecting The Environment Is Everybody's Business The Piedmont Environmental Council FAMILY FAIR at Airlie Warrenton, Virginia through the kindness of Dr. Head and the International Academy of Preventive Medicine Sunday, July 5,1992 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. Displays and guest speakers on some of our major Environmental Issues "Save America's Forests" •• Recycling •• Scenic Rivers and Waters •• The Fauquier Outdoor Lab •• Chesapeake Bay •• The Past is our Future (Civil War Society) •• Rainforest Issues •• Tree Care & Community Forestry w Virginia Native Plant Society •• Ozone •• Gypsy Moths •• Wildlife Center of Virginia - Featuring a Bald Eagle and a Peregrine Falcon j **Dr. William Sladen with his Endangered Swans ** And Much More!

I went to the performance of “Rythms” a one act play by Chris White at the Ki Theater. It was terrific, wonderful, great. There are two impressions for me at a live performance (providing that I can hear it), what was the message and how well was it delivered. It was about real life fear and loneliness. It was serious, poignant, provocative and really too complicated to discuss in my allotted space. I will not choose best actress for some obvious reasons but I would like to compliment Robin Herr for doing so well without the past credentials that many others have accumulated. Congratulations to all for a quality work so well done. A few days ago I was listening to an interview with an author. Unfortunately I have forgotten his name and the novel’s title. The following quote came from his book and it seems worth repeating. “Men talk to women so that they can sleep with them. Women sleep with men so they can talk to them” that would have been a good line for the play and pertinent?

Roy wins Rapp News award, Burke Memorial goes to Early Michelle Early, Janies Roy, Sherron Boddie and Amy Kellert got top awards at last Wednesday’s athletic banquet at the high school. This was the first year for the Neil Burke Memorial Award. Mr. Burke, who died last month in a traffic accident, graduated from the high school in 1987. While he was a student he participated in both the track and the cross-country teams. Rodney Grimsley, who was his teammate, said he demonstrated “perseverance, effort and dedication.” Michelle Early received the first Neil Burke award. In her high school years she has been active in cheerleading and track. James Roy received the Rappahannock News Athletic Award. He has played varsity basketball for four years. This past year he also tried soccer and played goalie most of the season. He has also been on the baseball team. Sherron Boddie won the Rappahannock High School Best Athlete Award. She has been played basketball and softball and been a cheerleader during her high school years. Amy Kellert won the Sportsmanship Award. She has been an active cheerleader since eighth grade.

The Madison team featured the fast ball pitching of senior Mary Damiser, who allowed no hits while striking out 14 and giving up five walks. In only her third loss of the season, Rappahannock pitcher Susan Payne allowed eight hits while striking out eight and walking five. Coach Renee Leake is proud of her team’s season. “To lose 5 to 1 to a team that is chosen to win the state isn’t bad,” she said. “Defensively we played fine/We just couldn’t hit her. We’ve come a long way this year.” Mrs. Leake said she really appreciates the support the softball team has had from the school and community this year. The Rappahannock softball team led the area in team hitting, and senior Sherron Boddie led in individual batting with a .600 batting average. The high school sports scene has ended for the year, but plans are underway for next year. Larry Carter, athletic director and assistant high school principal, said that the school will not field a soccer team in the fall. Instead, Mr. Carter said the school will try to organize a spring soccer team. George Mason is the only team in the district with fall soccer. This has meant that the rest of the schedule has been against private schools and club teams. Both those groups have their own heavy schedules, and getting a soccer schedule together has been difficult, he said. Mr. Carter said that both Brentsville and Central in the Bull Hun District have spring soccer teams, and George Mason has said it will switch to spring soccer if Rappahannock does. This will mean that only girls’ basketball and cross country will be offered as fall sports at the high school. It will also mean that the spring season will be quite busy with track, baseball, softball and soccer. Mr. Carter said that it should be possible to avoid conflicts between the use of the field for soccer and track. He said the fields at the elementary school may be needed for some soccer practices. Also the shot put and discus throw will have to be moved outside the soccer field.

Taxes Continued from page A-1 ministrator John McCarthy find out what revenues other counties receive from such taxes. The supervisors also agreed that Mr. McCarthy should explore with a firm from Florida applying for a grant from the EPA to construct an artificial wetland at the landfill to filter leachate. Mr. McCarthy said he and Jackson District representative Ellis Bingham had talked with the firm, which has been involved in creating such artificial wetlands mostly for sewer systems. The firm had suggested the main problem would be making the wetland small enough so it wouldn’t dry up because the landfill doesn’t produce much leachate. Currently the county is supposed to pump the leachate and truck it to Warrenton to be put through the sewage treatment plant. The leachate has tested cleaner than the requirements for groundwater, Mr. McCarthy said. Pumping and transportation of the leachate is very expensive. Mr. McCarthy said the Florida firm had suggested it would probably be necessary to divert storm water runoff and possibly streams on the property to insure enough water for a small wetland. Col. Bingham also urged the supervisors to consider accepting “fluff” at the landfill. He said the material is safe, but landfills without liners are not allowed to take it. He said the firm in Lorton which produces the “fluff” as a byproduct of brealdng down automobiles to recover the metal has been paying $400,000 per year to transport it to Richmond. When Col. Bingham first proposed that the county accept the “fluff,” he said that it could be used instead of dirt for daily cover. Since then, he has learned that it is not approved for daily cover. He said it would still benefit the county to take it because the money the county could get would help offset the cost of operating the landfill, and the “fluff” used would count towards the county’s goal of recycling 25 percent of total waste. Mr. McCarthy agreed that the money and recycling could help, but warned that taking “fluff” would shorten the life of landfill cells. The supervisors agreed to have Mr. McCarthy continue to explore the possibility and write to the Department of Waste Management to find out if the county could use “fluff” combined with dirt for daily cover. Mr. McCarthy also told the board the county would be affected by the Americans with Disabilities Act passed by Congress last year. He said even private companies are affected, since if they make changes to their buildings, 20 percent of what is spent must be used to increase accessibility for the handicapped. He said the county could be required to have equipment so people Roy Wheeler Realty Co.

He said the supervisors must appoint a Disability Services Board by November and at least one-third of the members must be people with disabilities or their families and at least two members must be from the business community. The supervisors added three new members to the Library Board bringing the membership of that board to nine. John Hartline, Frank Warner, and Steve Slade were appointed. The first two were appointed at the afternoon session. The supervisors had expressed interest in adding members from Jackson and Wakefield districts to the board. At the afternoon meeting Mr. Gilkey and Col. Bingham said they did not have representatives from their districts to nominate. Mr. Hartline and Mr. Warner were appointed. At the evening meeting Col. Bingham said he had heard from Mr. Slade, who is a retired attorney, that he is interested in serving on the board. Mary Jamieson, a Library Board member who was attending the meeting in support of the library’s budget, suggested it would be more appropriate for people interested in serving on the board to first volunteer in the library and work with the Friends of the Rappahannock Library. Col. Bingham said he felt sure Mr. Slade would be a positive addition to the Library Board. All three appointments were unanimous. At the public hearing to consider nominations for the School Board there were no nominations from the floor. Beverly Massie and Frances Thornton were nominated by their respective representatives on the Board of Supervisors for reappointment. Since they were the only people nominated, they will be reappointed. In other action the Board of Supervisors: • Agreed to meet Wednesday June 24 at 7 p.m. in the courthouse to appoint School Board members from Jackson and Piedmont districts, adopt a county budget for the next fiscal year and to pay end-ofthe-year bills. • Adopted a resolution in support of amendments to the Dillon Rule to give more authority to counties. • Appointed Lucy Ann Maeyer and Ronald Makela to the Recreation Facilities Authority. • Adopted the secondary road budget for the coming year. • Approved rezoning for the property next to the Amissville fireball that is now the More gasoline station to be used as a post office for Amissville. 1 WEDDING STATIONERY Beautiful Wedding Stationery INVITATIONS ANNOUNCEMENTS NAPKINS • BRIDAL BOOKS ACCESSORIES Stop by our office on Main Street, Washington, VA and we can help you plan your entire wedding. Rappahannock J^etosf 703-675-3338 Budget Continued from page A-1 the dogs and clean the shelter plus $224 per month for food. He said RAWL was actually spending $960 per month for the shelter operator plus the food bill. The supervisors agreed to the increase. “I’m not opposed to the county funding the minimum,” Piedmont District representative Charles K. “Pete” Estes said. “I am not in favor of passing the county’s burden off on anyone else.” Chairman Hubert Gilkey, Wakefield District, said the supervisors are concerned because the shelter is costing the county more than the county was paying before the shelter was built to keep the dogs in a private kennel. Kim Novak said this is because before the shelter was built, many people took dogs to shelters in neighboring counties. People are us mg the county’s shelter more than the private kennel was used, she said. Ruth Richards was the only member of the public to speak on other budget matters. She suggested the supervisors put back into the budget fluids for the shelter for abused women and children. She noted that none of the supervisors are women and suggested that it is important that the shelter’s budget have funds from each county that benefits from the program. The supervisors took no action on Mrs. Richards’ suggestion. The supervisors discussed the budgeted amounts for developing a central trash collection site to replace the dumpsters at Huntly and Scrabble and for trash hauling. Mr. Massie suggested the board cut those amounts from the budget and require all trash be taken to the landfill. “We need to shut the dumpsters down and no longer have open dumping,” he said. Jackson District representative Ellis Bingham said the public hearing last month showed that people want the dumpster sites to remain open. “The people in Jackson District, who take their trash to the landfill, are subsidizing the people in the rest of the county,” Mr. Massie said. Col. Bingham said, “I’d like to see the open sites closed, but I don’t think we can do it until we come up with a viable alternative.” He suggested that an alternative site be found and that a compactor be used to cut down on trash hauling costs. The supervisors agreed to look for a site to replace the dumpster sites at Huntly and Scrabble. Accountant Wally Cox said that he had learned the county would be spending funds this coming year for the E-911 system. He said he would prepare a final budget that would show the income and expenses for the system. The supervisors will meet Jund 24 at 7 p.m. to formally adopt a buch get and set tax rates. They have reached a consensus to support a 50 cent tax rate for real estate. Field Day, commencement Wakefield School in Marshall held its annual Field Day this week where the students, in teams of “Spartans” and “Athenians” battled each other through a day of games, races, and tests of skills. Throughout the day, the teams fought for the first place position and although the Spartans held the lead at times, the Athenians won the trophy at the end of the day. Parents, siblings, teachere, and students watched from the sidelines. The grounds were filled with chairs, blankets, and picnics with various students groups providing snacks, sno-cones, and even water balloons. Field Day is a favorite with all of the students and provides a break before the rigors of final exams. The 13th Commencement is scheduled for Saturday, June 6th at Belvoir Farms. Nine seniors will be graduated. The Valedictorian will be Justin Harrell of Haymarket and the Salutatorian will be Michelle Egan of Warrenton. Latin students competed in the Virginia Junior Classical League State Certamen held at the University of Virginia. Competition at this particular Certamen is usually fierce so only the strongest teams from the best schools attend. This year there were approximately 30 Virginia schools competing at the various levels. The Latin I team placed fifth in intense competition. The team was made up of four Rappahannock County students: Scott Updike, Van DeBergh, Alex Kelly, and Mary Beth Williams. The Latin I Advanced team placed fourth with Jody Waldron of Rectort own, Molly Chase and Trevor Herndon of Warrenton, and Amy Lightcap of Front Royal. The Latin II team with Kirsten Burton of Warrenton, Christina Cheney of Manassas, Suzanne Carrier of Viewtown, and Michael Viega of Winchester placed third. Finally, the Latin IV and V team with Matthew Durbin of Warrenton, Diana Fry of Catlett, Stephanie Tomeden of Flint Hill, and Colleen Harrell of Haymarket placed sixth.

Woodville astronomer studies England's mysterious crop circles By BOB SCOTT Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer It seems like part of some greater pattern, as if it were all meant to be. We’d received a notice in the mail, a flyer from RAAC that announced an event being held at Blackwater Homestead, Boston, Va. It was September of 1990. We were relatively new in Rappahannock County. We’d made a few friends among our closest neighbors but we weren’t at all sure where Boston was. We were yet to discover that we had been invited to share a unique experience at the Gottlieb’s beautiful home. How could we have imagined that we were about to have our “consciousness expanded.” Isn’t that something that only happens in the cities, those “centers of knowledge, culture and infinite opportunity?” But to come out to the “boonies,” to learn something new, at our age? Highly unlikely! Being new members of RAAC, anxious to get acquainted with the community, we read the mailed flyer with additional interest. The title was intriguing, hinting at secrets to be revealed: “The mystery of the Grop Circles in England.” Everything about the subject was a mystery to us. “Crop Circles.” Glancing briefly at the enlarged photo of the scheduled speaker we thought “nice looking guy, intelligent eyes,” maybe we’ll go, only $4 a ticket, good cause. So I turned the flyer over and continued to read: “Astronomer Gerald Hawkins is the author of ten books, including ‘Stonehenge Decoded,’ and the recipient of numerous awards from the Smithsonian Institution and the U.S. Information Agency”—U.S.I.A.?!? Turning back to the flyer front again, the “nice looking guy,” Dr. Gerald Hawkins, was “Gerry,” one of my closest associates from the years when I served as USIA’s director of motion pictures and television. Gerry Hawkins was the agency’s highly respected science advisor. We had spent scores of stimulating hours together reviewing science-related programs for technical accuracy prior to their distribution to the global audience. What would Dr. Gerald Hawkins be doing in Boston, Va.? Almost everyone knew but me. The Hawkins’ have a farm called “Hawkridge.” It’s in Rappahannock County. They get their mail in Woodville — and I live in Castleton, only 15 minutes away by the short cut. In other words, we’re “next-door neighbors” and we hadn’t known it. And what’s more, my friend Gerry had gone and gotten married and his wonderful wife is the former Julia Dobson (also from USIA) and now the Scotts and Hawkins are even closer friends than when I last saw Gerry, over 13 years before. Yes, I do believe it was part of a “greater pattern.” It was magical. Things like that really do happen in Rappahannock County. The story didn’t end in September 1990. That was only the beginning. So much has happened since then to Dr. Hawkins as he continued his scientific quest to solve the “mystery of the Crop Circles in England” and elsewhere. I can only touch on some of the highlights. First of all Dr. Hawkins is a real scientist. In my long career of working professionally with “scientists” in the atomic energy, ballistic missile and space programs I have learned the difference between the real and unreal. In today’s world it seems that the unreal kind get more notice, more recognition, fame, fortune and media power than the real scientists do. Just as he was devoted to discovering the truth in the “decoding of Stonehenge,” Dr. Hawkins is interested in learning what is real about the crop circle-pattern phenomena. He is careful not to say or write anything that he cannot prove, at least to his own satisfaction. Since 1990 Dr. Hawkins has discovered some intriguing things about these unprecedented phenomena and he has shared his findings with many other scientists. As a result he has attracted much national and international attention and has considerably increased the mail being directed to him in care of the Woodville Post Office. It is to be expected, as it has been many times before, that it is so much easier to doubt than to discover. It was not surprising that Time magazine listed the following item among “the best scientific achievements of 1991” in a January 1992 issue under the headline “crop circles demystified” - “It was a victory of skeptical scientific inquiry over tabloid headlines. For 13 years people had been concocting increasingly bizarre explanations for those mysterious circles and lines pressed into the grain fields in Southern England. Were they the landing sites of UFO’s? No, the crop circles — or at least some of them — were the handiwork of a pair of elderly British landscape painters who engineered the elaborate hoax (with string and planks) “for a bit of a laugh.” One of the two most prestigious scientific journals extant, Science News, dated Feb. 1, 1992, devoted its cover story to Dr. Hawkins’ unique investigations of the crop patterns. The article entitled “Euclid’s Crop Circles’* by Ivars Peterson includes an appropriate response to the “solution of the mystery” which Time magazine’s staff so readily adopted for the edification of its trusting readership: “Most crop deformations appear as simple, nearly perfect circles of grain flattened in a spiral pattern. But a significant number consists of circles in groups, circles inside rings, or circles with spurs and other appendages. Within these geometric forms, the grain itself may be laid down in various patterns. “Explanations of the phenomeon range from the bizarre to the unnatural. To some people, the circles - which began appearing about a decade ago - represent the handiwork of extraterrestrial invaders, or crafty tradesmen bent on mischief after an evening at the pub, or even hordes of graduate students driven by a mad Astronomer Gerald Hawkins and his wife, Julia. The painting of Stonehenge was done by Dr. Hawkins. He has written several books investigating the antiquity. professor. To others, the circles suggest the action of microwave-generated ball lightning, numerate whirlwinds, or some other peculiar atmospheric phenomenon. “These scenarios apparently suffered a severe blow late last summer, when two elderly landscape painters, David Chorley and Douglas Bower, admitted to creating many of the giant, circular wheat-field patterns that cropped up over the last decade in Southern England. The chuckling hoaxers proudly displayed the wooden planks, balls of string and primitive sighting device they claimed they used to construct the circles. ' “But this newspaper-orchestrated, widely publicized admission didn’t settle the whole mystery. Gerald S. Hawkins, a retired astronomer who now divides his time between an apartment in Washington, D.C., and a farm in Woodville, Va., felt compelled to write Bower and Chorley last September, asking how they managed to discover and incorporate a number of ingenious, previously unknown geometric theorems - of the type that appear in antique textbooks - into what he called their “artwork in the crops.” “He concluded his letter as follows: “The media did not give you credit for the unusual cleverness behind the design of the patterns.” That article by Ivars Peterson attracted international attention and the following March 7th issue of Science News printed many letters from readers in Texas, Massachusetts, Colorado, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, Washington, Maine and even one from England. Roger Dorr from Portola Valley, Calif, wrote, “I’ll bet your article on crop circles draws more correspondence than anything you have published in recent history. Geometry would be an excellent way for extraterrestrials to try to bridge the language gap.” At least that writer had an open mind. In explanation of the references to “geometry,” I’ll quote some exerpts from Dr. Hawkins’ recent article in the scientific journal Cosmos, Vol. 2, #1 (published by The Cosmos Club) entitled “Probing the Mystery of Those Eerie Crop Circles: “The first clue I found among the crop circles in November 1990 was a great surprise - the rations of music. This is a little complicated, but to put it simply, let us take the white notes on the piano. For middle C, with perfect tuning, the pitch is 264 hertz (vibrations per second), and for C\ the octave above, the pitch is 528, giving an exact ratio of 2:1. The 5th note above C - G - has a pitch of 396, and a ratio of 3:2, as compared with middle C. Each note in the major scale has an exact, simple, diatonic ratio. , "These diatonic ratios showed up in the crop circles in two different ways. Interestingly enough, numbers representing sharps and flats did not show up in the crop patterns. I analyzed the entire sample of circles accurately measured by P. Delgado and C. Andrews between 1981-1988 and out of a total of 18, 11 gave diatonic ratios. “Was the first point on the intellectual profile (of the ‘hoaxers’) a knowledge of the diatonic scale? They seemed to know of these fractions, taking care to encode them in the shapes so that they could be retrieved by someone studying aerial photographs. The accuracy required in a typical 20-meter circle is about 15 centimeters, and without the precisely-made edges, my analysis would not have been possible. “My scientific colleagues have checked out the mathematics and they confirm what I have discovered, but usually their interest stops there.” In response to the many letters inspired by the Science News article, Dr. Hawkins concluded with these comments: “The practical result of the geometry and diatonics is that we can eliminate all theories proposed for the phenomenon as a whole that depend on a natural science process. “There has been much jest and amusement over the crop-pattern phenomenon, but there is a serious aspect. Harvesting of the food supply has been interfered with for more than a decade in England, and increasingly elsewhere (Canada, Japan, U.S.) in the world, by an undetected intrusion into our environment. The jesting will be out of place if the phenomenon continues to spread.” It would seem that in this very modem age of revelation, with so much “information” being broadcast at the speed of light, that we are being urged to understand the purpose of the patterns, whether they’re impressed into a field of grain or upon a conscious human brain. If someone has been trying to get our attention perhaps it would be wise for us to look and learn to listen. If we don’t know how it’s done, at least we’d better know who’s doing it - and why. Virginia wine fest at Great Meadow THE PLAINS — “Vintage Virginia ’92: The 11th Annual Virginia Wineries Festival,” takes place June 6 and June 7 at Great Meadow Field Events Center. 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 festiv^ds 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 ex hibits, 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, j ( 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, Dixielandstyle jazz by festival regulars the Ponchartrain New Orleans Jazz Band and modern jazz by D.C. locals Ritmo Junction. The Fearless Airborne Copjury will also return this year with his unique mixture of comedy and juggling performances throughout both days. For the serious .wine enthusiast, Fern Street Gourmet (with locations and Alexandria and Burke) and the Greenbrier’s cooking school, La Varenne, (located in White Sulphur Springs, W.Va.) will team up to conduct seminars on tasting wine, pairing wine and food and cooking with wine. 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 $13 in advance, $15 at the gate. For everyone under 21 (who cannot be served wine), tickets are $3. Children under two are admitted free. A portion of the festival proceeds this year will benefit nonprofit public television and radio, WETA Channel 26/91FM.

A liquid pool of glistening gold floats in benign tranquility in the calm of a clear and sunlit day, developing an unexpected rush of strength only when forced to weather jagged rocks and harrowing heights while falling from the precipice which gives birth to the mighty power of the waterfall. How like the nature of humankind, who may complacently exist from year to year, realizing strength only when resources are invigorated by adversity. Faith and adversity, when coupled into the perfect pair, is one of the greatest tools which we may access in the building of the spirit of courage in our earthly experience. In the words of Eccl.7:14, “In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity tonsider." Prepare for the challenge of adversity.

Are you getting your share of SHARE? By HELEN W. SMITH Racpahaitnock New* Contributing Writer For my foods and nutrition column this week, I’d like to tell you about SHARE - a food-buying coop that has been in operation in Rappahannock County for almost 12 months, First, a little background information. . .SHARE stands for Self Help and Resource Exchange. It is a nationwide organization which began in 1983 in California by the Catholic Diocese. Credit for getting our local SHARE organization started goes to Tommy Williams, Agricultural Extension Agent. As part of a Rural Leadership Development Program at Virginia Tech in which Mr. Williams participated last year, he toured the SHARE distribution warehouse in Giles County which serves southwestern Virginia counties. The purpose of the tour was to show an example of how communities respond to needs. . .in this case the need was for a more economical way to buy food. The community responded by joining the nationwide SHARE food-buying coop. Mr. Williams shared this idea with our local Extension Advisory Committee which also thought it was a good idea. They felt it fulfilled a need locally not only to help families eat more economically but also HOME ECONOMICS as a potential market for produce grown in Rappahannock County. Local steering committee organized In Spring 1991 representatives of the Extension Advisory Committee and Washington Baptist Church visited the SHARE distribution warehouse in Washington, D.C. to be briefed on SHARE. Approximately one year ago a local steering committee was organized to “administer” SHARE locally. It’s a totally volunteer group that is very dedicated and hard-working. The SHARE philosophy is to keep the “administration” to a minimum, but realistically it does take a few people to get ev erything organized. Washington Baptist Church agreeded to be the Host Site for the SHARE Delivery Day each month. Even though WBC is the host site, it’s not a religious organization. Several churches participate as registration sites on the first Sunday of each month. These are WBC, St. Peter’s Catholic Church and Promise Land Baptist Church. In addition to these churches, registration sites include the Chester Gap fire hall and Senior Citizens Nutrition Site. Note: we still need sign up sites in Amissville, Castleton, Flint Hill, Woodville, Slate Mills and any community where there are people who want to participate. The steering committee is responsible for (1) registration of participants, (2) securing drivers each month to go to warehouse in D.C. to pick up food (to date we’ve had 18 people volunteer to drive so it’s a new pair almost every month; that way no one is burdened with driving every month), (3) publicity, (4) collecting vouchers for community service work performed each month, and (5) helping at Delivery Day. Who can participate SHARE is available to everyone! Even though it serves people in need, it takes lots of us “ordinary middle-class people” to participate to keep the volume of participants high to enable SHARE to purchase in volume and, therefore, pass the savings along to us. Besides, I’ve never met anyone - no matter what their income level - who didn’t want to save money on their food bill. How to participate Participants pay $13 in cash or food stamps to sign up each month. They also get a form to record their two hours of community service to be done that month. If someone has a larger family, they can purchase two orders for $26 plus four hours of community service and so on. Another idea for participation which we have not done yet, but which was done in Madison County by Hebron Lutheran Church, the host site there, is to ask people to make a charitable donation of $13 for one order of groceries that would be given to an individual in need identified by Department of Social Services. Hebron Lutheran Church collected over 20 donations this past Christmas to help families in need in Madison County.

Prices in this ad good Wednesday, June 3 thru Tuesday, June 9,1992. 28th edition of the Rappahannock News, there certainly is a need in Rappahannock County. A typical grocery bag of food An order each month consists of frozen meats, staple items like pasta, beans, jelly, pancake mix, and fresh fruits and vegetables. Almost every month we've had potatoes, onions and apples. The other vegetables vary depending on what’s in season and what the warehouse can get the best deal on. We’ve had cabbage, peaches, cantelope, carrots, celery, collard greens, tomatoes, etc. Regarding the meats, we’ve had chicken every month, fish or a second meat, usually some type of breakfast meat like bacon or sausage, and usually some type of deli meat like hot dogs, bologna, or pepperoni. Part of the anticipation is arriving on Delivery Day to see what’s on the menu this month. There’s also a certain degree of comradery amongst the regular participants and volunteers to swap recipe ideas and discuss how you are going to fix such-and-such this month. The reason we don’t get advance notice of what the groceries will be it depends on what the warehouse gets the best deals on. The staff at the warehouse in D.C. consists of one director and one secretary/assistant. The rest of the staff are volunteers who come in each month to “bag up” the groceries. Since SHARE deals in cash and little overhead, they’re able to keep the costs low. On the consumer end, everyone pays in cash (no bounced checks to collect, etc.) and on the purchasing end, since the director is paying cash for a tractor trailer load of potatoes, for example, he can negotiate a deal. The provider knows he will get paid in cash, no bills to send and collect, etc. That’s the basic principle. Overall, I’d say the food has been very good. It’s not “gourmet” (whatever that means!); it’s just simple, wholesome food. One person made the comment one month that all she had to buy that week was milk, eggs and bread. When I consider my own grocery bill some weeks (and I consider myself an economical shopper) I’d say that’s darn good to feed two people for $13 plus the price of milk, eggs, and bread! The order we received this past month in May was especially good. It contained a package of eight chicken leg quarters which I intended to cook outside on the grill, but due to a rainy weekend, made the oven-fried chicken instead. The order also had pasta, onion, cucumbers and tomatoes which were combined into a pasta salad. The order contained turkey link sausages, cantelope and peaches. I served these as a bowl of fresh fruit, sausages and waffles for Sunday breakfast. They were two menus I created from the May order. The rest is in the pantry waiting to be cooked. A challenge for June Maybeile Gilkey and I spoke on SHARE at the Fauquier Extension Homemakers Achievement day in April because they were interested in organizing a SHARE site in Fauquier County. Del. Jerry Wood was in attendance that day and after the program told us he’d like to know more about SHARE so we invited him to visit the Rappahannock site one month. He accepted and said he’d like to visit the Delivery Day 10-11 a.m. on June 27 at Washington Baptist Church. This is my challenge to you, my readers and residents of Rappahannock County: If you are not familiar with SHARE I encourage you to visit on Delivery Day on June 27. Or, if you have not participated, sign up to participate in June (see separate sign up article elsewhere in today's paper for locations) to learn about SHARE first-hand. We are certainly not trying to turn this into a “political event,” but if Jerry Wood is interested enough to drive out to Rappahannock County from Warrenton to learn about SHARE, I encourage all of our local citizens to stop by and learn about SHARE, too. For additional information on SHARE or if you’d like to volunteer to help call Mr. Williams or me at 675-3619, Rev. Darrell Bare at 6753336, Nancy Reeve at 675-3313, Maybeile Gilkey at 703-635-5472, Lillian Aylor at 987-8064 or Marie Riedel at 675-3638. P.S. I do know the meaning of “gourmet”. . .it’s not an adjective as it was used in the article, but a noun and means a person who is an expert at judging and choosing fine foods and wine. Had to add this postscript to restore my credibility with the Rappahannock News so they’ll let me keep writing this nutrition column each week.

DIANE RELF Rappahannock N*w» Contributing Writer Every gardener could use a volunteer to help out once in a while. Gardeners especially are fond of volunteers that taste as good as some that are commonly found in the herb garden. Parsley, caraway, and dill are three commonly used herbs that will return on their own, year after year, once you get them started in the garden. Dill is the easiest of this trio to start. Scatter a few seeds in a bare spot in the garden and you will soon be rewarded by the light green, lacy foliage, known as dill weed. It will be followed by seed heads for use in pickling. Plant dill in early spring and late summer for the best foliage growth; if started in summer the plants tend to flower quickly. Harvest dillweed for kitchen use by shearing the foliage. Wait until the seed heads begin to brown to gather them, and let a few heads remain to provide seed for volunteer plants next spring. Many times the plants sown by nature will outperform the plants carefully sown by the gardener. If they start in spots where they are not welcome, you can let them grow for a few weeks before harvesting the entire plant for dillweed. Because of its biennial nature, parsley doesn’t have quite the reputation of dill for voluntary seeding. Most gardeners remove the plants in the last garden cleanup of the season, before they have had a chance to bloom. Start parsley by transplanting seedlings and leave the plants over winter, and in the spring you can harvest the new growth for fresh use. The plants will soon flower and set seed which will sprout in the general vicinity and provide parsley for the summer and fall. Establish parsley in the garden by transplanting seedlings into the garden two or three weeks before the last frost of the spring. To have nice-sized seedlings at that time, sow the seed indoors 10 to 12 weeks beforehand. The seed is slow to germinate, but will eventually sprout if kept moist. Some gardeners use trick such as soaking the seed in water, freezing the seed, or pouring boiling water over the soil after planting the seed. These may speed up germination somewhat, but it is just as easy to start early and be patient. Parsley may be slow to start, but caraway can be slow and difficult. The seed is viable for only a short time and may not survive winter storage so germination is relatively poor from packaged seed. Freezing the seed for a few days before sowing can improve germination. This hardy plant can be seeded directly outside where it is to grow. One plant will produce a prodigious amount of seed, so unless you really like rye bread, raise just a few plants. Like parsley, caraway is a biennial and will only produce a rosette of leaves the first year of growth. The next season will bring the umbels of flowers with their abundant seed. If you leave just one seed head you will have plenty of volunteer plants. The seed that falls to the ground is as fresh as can be and will not suffer the viability problems of purchased seed.
