44th Year, No 38 12 pages BiaMau>oTcircuiaiion THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1992 Washington, Virginia Phone 675-3338 50 cents 'Musical office' idea is tabled on a flat note By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock N*w» Staff Writer The Board of Supervisors started playing musical offices last Wednesday and then decided to stop and wait a month. The county received a letter from District Court Judge Charles B. Foley and A. Burke Hertz, judge of the juvenile and domestic relations court, last month asking if more rooms could be made available for witnesses in the court house. Currently witnesses mingle in the hallway and in the one waiting room. For juvenile and domestic relations cases this is particularly difficult and potentially dangerous. County Administrator John McCarthy recommended that once the reassessment is finished, the registrar move into the back room of Commissioner of Revenue Beverly Atkins’s office building. He had written a letter to the judge saying the registrar would be moved out of the courthouse and the magistrate’s office would be moved into the registrar’s office. Also the room used for the breathalizer and two days a week by the juvenile case worker would be moved to the same side of the building next to District Court Clerk Pat Davis’s office. That would have freed up two additional rooms to be used by witnesses. At last week’s meeting Registrar Nancy Leake and Electoral Board member Pearl Clark appeared to protest this move. They said that when the move was first proposed they were told they would have the room Ms. Atkins uses for her office also. Now they had been told they would have only the long room the Board of Assessors used for meetings. Mrs. Leake said she would not be able to put all her records in that room and that she needed a separate room for those casting absentee ballots. A letter from the Rappahannock Electoral Board noted that the location in the courthouse is convenient for people wanting to register. The letter points out that one week 23 people registered to vote. Seventeen of them had come to the courthouse on other business and were reminded to register when they saw the office. Ms. Atkins said she could not give up the room she uses for her office, but she could give up a small room with a separate door that adjoins but has no door to the room the Board of Assessors used. The supervisors adjourned to look at the offices in the courtroom and in Ms. Atkins building. They returned and voted four to zero to move the magistrate’s office and juvenile case worker and breathalizer to the space in Ms. Atkins building after renovations are made to See Office, Page A-3 Old Rag Bulletins RLEP annual meeting The Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection Inc.

Easthams file assessment suit By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer Louise and Thomas L. Eastham have sued the county over their assessments. A petition filed by attorney Douglas Baumgardner on behalf is the Easthams asks that the assessments be set at the level set by the Board of Assessors, not the level set by the Board of Equalization. Another suit against the Board of Supervisors was filed Tuesday by attorney James W. Fletcher III on behalf of Richard Settle, executor of the estate of Flor- ence Settle^-' " -- ’srrsnrrrawaiMswsn This suit does not mention the Board of Assessors or Board of Equalization. It questions the assessment itself. The assessment on several Settle properties was set at $833,400. The suit alleges that the assessment is “excessive and represents a Value far greater than 100 percent of its fair market value.” It says an independent appraiser “has established the fair market value of the property as of Dec. 31, 1991 to be approximately $600,000.” The suit asks the court to order a new assessment. Mrs. Eastham owns the 2,497.5-acre Ben Venue Farm. Mr. Eastham owns 296.1 acres nearby. The Board of Assessors set the assessment on Ben Venue at $4.7 million and the assessment on Mr. Eastham’s land at $938,100. The Board of Equalization held hearings on the See County, Page A-5 School is granted permit By FRANCES BISHOPP Rappahannock News Staff Writer Spring Mountain School on Mt. Salem Avenue in Washington, Va. was granted a new special use permit by the • -Owirt mt, Uat week’s meeting. The school had asked to increase the number of children in attendance during normal school hours from 20 to 40.

Ms. Craig was granted the use of two classrooms instead of two, however she does not have rights to the auditorium. Ms. Craig will also be allowed to rent classroom space after See School, Page A-3 Miller says no new taxes State Sen. Kevin Miller, R-26th, came to the Board of Supervisors meeting last week to discuss the county’s legislative agenda. Sen. Miller said he agreed with most of the agenda, but wanted to discuss the issues in person. He said he supported giving counties the same taxing and borrowing power cities have. He said he supported the proposals that the state not issue additional mandates without funding them. He supported the proposal that the state encourage regional recycling efforts. He said he would also support the proposal to return 25 percent of the lottery revenues to the county based on school-aged population, but said he did not expect such a proposal to pass. Sen. Miller also said he expected increased pressure for higher state taxes, especially if the bond referendums pass, but said he would not propose any increase in state taxes. He did suggest that the half a cent sales tax that is earmarked for transportation See Miller, Page A-2 Bulldogs top Panthers, 48-33, in girls' hoop test By ALICE REEVE Rappahannock News Special Writer The Luray Bulldogs topped the Rappahannock Varsity Panthers in Monday night’s game. After a quick 10 points for Luray, Rappahannock came back to get oq^the board, but many referee calls went against them and the Panthers were trailing 13 to 24 at halftime. By the end of the third quarter, Rappahannock was still behind 14 points, but as their passing game increased, so did the points scored by Rappahannock. With 81 shots this game, Rappahannock finished with a score of 33 to Luray’s 48. Two three pointers by Emmdar Swatman added to the offense push. Coach Mike Tupper said the main See Hoop.

Light debate continues By FRANCES BISHOPP Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Approximately 15 to 10 people attended the Town Council public hearing last week which focused on design alternatives for replacement fixtures for street lighting in the town. The meeting was held at the new Town Hall. Donald Fentress, of Hadco, the company that has erected the Acorn Globe fixture near Trinity Episcopal Church, was present at the meeting to answer questions about the fixture and to present additional information. Also present was Rick Bowman of Potomac Edison. According to Mr. Bowman, if the town decided not to use the standard Cobra Arm light fixture put up by Potomac Edison and chose a nonstandard fixture, a sodium vapor light bulb would still be required. Also required would be a “safe fixture” and easily assessable for maintence. Mr. Bowman also explained that the company only stocks General Electric light bulbs in 100, 200 and 300 watts and any other type of light bulb chosen by the town would have to be special ordered. Several members of the audience complained that the light bulb now in the Acorn Globe fixture, (a TOO watt bulb) was too bright. Several remedies were suggested: using a lesser wattage of light bulb, which would mean the town would then be responsible for the cost of the light bulb, using a color corrected bulb, which would cut down on the color and the glare or sandblasting the interior of the plastic globe which would reduce the glare as well. Mr. Bowman of Potomac Edison informed the group that Potomac Edison is under mandate from the State Corporation Commission as to their rate schedules. However, there is a period when they can be petitioned to change their stock. There was some discussion as to petitioning Potomac Edison to change their stock to include a 50 watt bulb. Mr. Bowman said that there were a number of small towns that were interested in the lesser wattage bulb. Mr. Bowman also said that if the town used the 50 watt bulb, it would be charged 50 watt service. However if Potomac Edison stocked the 50 watt bulb there would be a possibility that the rate would be lower. Charles Eldred, owner of Washington House Reproductions, told the council that he had contacted a Edwin K. Robinson, a lighting engineer for the National Museum of American History and a Fellow with See Light.

According to Mr. Eldred, Mr. Robinson’s research revealed that the Acorn Globe fixture is not historically appropriate for the town. “The first street lights originated around 1919,” said Mr. Eldred. “These street lights were radial wave fixtures, similar to the Trimble House fixture erected near the Health Department.” “In rural Piedmont areas of Virginia, there never had a streetlight like the Acorn Globe fixture,” he continued. “It would be historically incompatible to erect this fixture. ” At a prior ARB meeting, the Inn at Little Washington had requested that it be allowed to erect its own lights. It had chosen either the Acorn Globe fixture or another Hadco fixture not approved by the Town Council. Mr. Eldred said that he felt that the streetlights in town should be maintained by the town and that there should be continuity. Mr. Bowman told the Town Council that the cobra arm fixture would be put up by Potomac Edison at no charge. Mr. Bowman was asked if the town could use a 50 wjitt bulb in the Cobra Arm fixture. He said he did not know, but he would find out and get back to the council. There was no decision made on the lighting and last week’s meeting. A request for more information was made and the council said there was a strong possibility it would reopen the public hearing on this issue next month. ' . ►Miller From Page A-l projects be given to the localities for school use and that gasoline taxes be used to fund highway construction. “That would take some of the pressure off real estate taxes,” he said. “The federal government hasn’t raised taxes, and the state government hasn’t raised taxes, but by golly, we’ve raised taxes,” Mr. Massie said. Mr. Massie pointed out that the state requirements for the landfill have put pressure on taxes. "The sky’s the limit with all we have to pay,” he said. Sen. Miller said he would support impact fees for the county “as long as it’s done fairly.” He noted that the right to impose impact fees has been extended mostly to the fastest growing counties. Chairman Hubert Gilkey said, “Our biggest concern is that it be extended to all jurisdictions. If it gets passed for the more populous jurisdictions, but the time it gets to us, we’ll be so far behind, we’ll never catch up.” Sen. Miller said he did not think transferable development rights would be given to all counties. ‘To pass at all, it has to be for a specific area,” he said. Sen. Miller said he would agree to modifications to the Dillon rule but he would oppose any move to repeal it. The Dillon rule gives control of everything to the state govern ment except those powers specifically given to localities. “There are many things the localities could do without having to go through the process of getting them written into the code of Virginia,” he said. "I would favor amendments.” Mr. Massie asked Sen. Miller, “Would it be a fair assumption that the longer you have been in Richmond, the better the Dillon Rule looks?” “That would probably be a fair assumption,” Sen. Miller said. “Also the longer I’ve been in Richmond the worse term limits look.” The supervisors asked Sen. Miller his views on the proposed football stadium for Potomac Yards in Alexandria. Sen. Miller said he opposed that because the citizens of Alexandria oppose it and other localities want the stadium. “So long as there are reasonable alternatives, I’m opposed to shoving it down the locality’s throat,” he said. At last month’s meeting Mr. Gilkey proposed that the county add an objection to the proposed stadium to the legislative agenda. This did not pass unanimously, so the board opted to table the matter until this month’s meeting. The supervisors adopted an addition to the legislative agenda opposing “the expenditure of any state resources for the construction and operation of an athletic studium in the Potomac Yards area of Alexandria.” The motion to add this position passed four to zero with Mr. Massie abstaining. —By SHARON KILPATRICK AUCTION BENEFIT: WASHINGTON VOL.

Entrances to Madison County High School, the Madison County school bus stop and Madison Primary School are on the section of raod to be improved. The contractor, Haymes Brothers Inc. of Chatham will construct the improvements under a $366,309 contract awarded by the Commonwealth Transportation Board in August. Two-way traffic will be maintained throughout the project, said Culpeper resident engineer Larry Garber. However, said Garber, during the construction, it would be to a motorist’s advantage to use Route 230 and Route 29 between Madison and Pratts rather than Route 687.

This is in addition to the $995 million disaster assistance for 1990-91 crops announced by Mr. Madigan Jan. 2. The application period for disaster claims for fall seeded program crops planted in 1991 and harvested in 1992 began Sept. 8 and will end Oct. 2. The application period for producers with losses on other 1992 crops and for producers with losses from 1990 or 1991 who did not previously receive disaster payments for those losses, will begin on Oct. 13 and end Feb. 12,1993. Disaster assistance is available on a per farm basis for any two years of 1990, 1991 or 1992. The original program provided $995 million for either 1990 or 1991. Now, relief will also be provided for fall seeded program crops planted in 1991 for harvest in 1992. Producers will be eligible to apply for assistance for 1900, 1991 or 1992 losses; however, if producers received assistance for any of those years they may not receive further assistance for that crop year. Producers who receive payments for fall seeded program crops will only be eligible for assistance for 1991 crop losses. Producers with qualifying gross revenues of less than $2 million per year may file claims for losses of participating and nonparticipating program and nonprogram crops. Producers with crop insurance must have had losses greater than 35 percent. Producers without crop insurance must have had losses greater than 40 percent. Producers with 1992 crop losses may be required, under certain conditions, to purchase crop insurance for 1993. Mr. Madigan said producers intending to file for assistance should begin to assemble their records now, so they will be ready when the official application period opens. For more information, come by the local ASCS office on the comer of Gay and Jett streets in Washington or call 675-3616. Programs will be conducted on a nondiscriminatory basis without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex, marital status or disability. ►Office From Page A-l the building. Hampton District representative Mike Massie abstained. Later Chief Magistrate Francis Eldred and county magistrate Dieter Kneupfer came to the meeting and protested that decision. They said they had agreed to the move across the hall to the registrar’s office but not the move to the other building. Mrs. Eldred protested that she had not been notified the supervisors were considering such a move. She said she frequently has to deal with domestic disputes and can separate people. She said that would not be possible in the Commissioner of Revenue’s building. Col. Kneupfer said, “The issue is security. The people we deal with are not all choirboys. I can’t think of anything worse than having a half a dozen characters in that little room.” Mr. Massie suggested the board “vacate” its previous motion and table the matter for another month so all the people involved could be present. This motion passed unanimously. Ms. Atkins said she would consult with a builder about how the rooms in her building could be modified. The supervisors approved some changes in the contract with Davis Industries to take fluff the company produces from shredding cars. The company suggested the contract be modified to pay the county $24 rather than $25 per ton. The company also asked that the contract say that the county would also take approximately 4,000 tons of fluff that have been stockpiled at the company’s Lorton grounds since the contract was proposed and that the county agree to give the company 60 days rather than 30 days notice if the county wants to terminate the contract earlier than Jan. 1,1994. The supervisors agreed to the last two changes but decided to hold out for $25 per ton. The board authorized Mr. McCarthy to explore extending the contract with Updike Industries to collect trash from the dumpsters on a month-to-month basis or for another year.

He also spoke of the excellent defense by Rappahannock, in particular Susan Jewell. “We played even with them for three quarters," said Coach Tupper. “I’m proud of them.” The Rappahannock County High School Junior Varsity Panthers fought a hard game against the Luray Bulldogs Monday night but came up short in the end. At the end of the first quarter, the score was seven to four with the Panthers in the lead, but Rappahannock lost its edge by the end of the first half. In the second half, the girls took about the same number of shots as the Bulldogs but only made two compared to the Bulldogs four. “Our defense was fairly good, our offense was okay,” said Coach Tupper, when asked to comment on the game. Coach Van de Graff added that the JV girls tired easily, but tried to push it more. The final score was Panthers 12, Bulldogs, 25. The Rappahannock High School Lady Panthers have had a slow start to their season. Although the bas ketball team has lost their first three games, the team is very positive, and optimistic. The two teams faced the Page County Panthers in a difficult away game. The J.V. team played hard, but failed to come up with a win. Their lack of experience might have hindered their play, but the teams excellent leadership skills have not affected their attitude. “They are a good, hard working team,” says Coach Tupper. Coach Van de Graff added that they give 100 percent all the time. The varsity team played an incredible game against Page, with the lead shifting between the two all evening. The low number of players, however, left the girls in a tight situation, and Page went in to win the game by nine. With two new coaches, the girls have experienced a change of pace. When asked how coaching girls differed from boys, Coach Tupper responded by commenting on the different emotional level. “With girls, it is easier to discover problems, and easier to solve them," replied the coach. The girls have set many goals for themselves, but “the sky’s the limit,” said Coach Van de Graff. “We want to play well and earn the respect of our opponents. They are the best I’ve seen Rappahannock play in a long time, and I’m very proud of them,” he said. ►School From Page A-l school hours to certain groups with certain stipulations. The groups will consist of no more than 20 children and or adults and a teacher. The group or groups will meet no more than four times a week. These meetings wil be either weekday afternoons or evenings or Saturdays. Evening meetings will go not later than 9 p.m. Also stipulated was that noise after sundown should not go past the boundaries of the property. The Town Council also brought up as old business the objection by Mayor Dean Morehouse to inclusion of the Wheeler Street roadbed in the plat approved for boundary adjustment by Fredette Eagle to her lot on the northwest eorner of Wheeler and Gay streets. Town attorney Frank Reynolds said the current owner nor any of the previous owners have any historical claim to the roadbed. However, said council member Susan Parrish, there is no historical record that will show in writing what the intentions are. The Town Council is currently exploring various options as how to correct the situation. Ponds useful in many ways Ponds can be useful in more than one way, according to John Jeffries of the Soil Conservation Service. “Ponds are now serving a variety of purposes, including water for livestock and irrigation, fish production, field and orchard spraying, fire protection, wildlife habitat, debris basin, recreation, and landscape improvement.” There are three major concerns to consider before building a pond. A good pond site contains: a topography (lay of the land) that provides for economical pond construction, a water supply that provides adequate, but not excessive amounts of water, and a soil type with sufficient clay content to hold water.

To bring readers up to date, the town is currently looking at three different styles of lights from which to choose its final light selection. The Cobra Arm, which is the standard fixtures put up by Potomac Edison at no charge, the Acorn Globe fixture, made by the Hadco Company and the Trimble House fixture, made by Trimblehouse Corp. of Norcross, Ga. While it is obvious the most economical decision for the town would be to choose the Cobra Arm, aesthetically it would be a most unattractive addition to the town. The Acorn Globe fixture, while the most ornate of the three, appears to belong in a more formal environment than the streets of our rural country town. The third fixture, the Trimble House, according to research by lighting experts, is the fixture that is historically compatible to the type of lighting put up originally in small, rural towns in the Piedmont area. In comparison to the Acorn Globe, it appears to be simple and unadorned, however, what is the goal here? To change the basic character of the town by constructing a fixture that has no historic significance or erecting fixtures that do? Remember you are only looking at one fixture now, you must imagine what that fixture will look like multiplied by many more throughout the streets of our small town. The Inn at Little Washington has requested that it, at its expense, be allowed to erect one of two choices around its property in the town. Its final selection is the Acorn Globe and another fixture, the Victorian III, (not approved by the Town Council). The Trimble House was not among its final choices, nor understandably the Cobra Arm. The Architectural Review Board, of whom the request was made, chose wisely to wait until the final decision on the lights is made, hopefully to avoid a situation where the town chooses one light and the Inn another with an end result of a myriad of streetlight designs throughout the town. While the more ornate Acorn Globe fixture is undoubtedly a more appropriate style of fixture for the Inn and the Inn can obviously choose whatever light they want for their property and at their expense, let us hope that, if the town comes to a different decision, a compromise of some sort can be worked out. Our small town festooned with a number of different styles of streetlights could look ridiculous and ultimately defeat the purpose of this endeavor in the first place. And if an unattractive culmination to this long ordeal is what is in store, why not put up the Cobra Arm fixtures — they come at the best price. According to the Courthouse Cat ‘This town is going nuts with culture. Classical music concerts every weekend it seems. This Saturday some Smithsonian guys are playing at The Theatre who only use cat gut strings on their instruments. Think I will lay low over the weekend. Anyway what about a little rock and roll entertainment for us lowbrow types?’ — Calvin (Editor's note: Calvin’s opinions do not reflect any individual opinions outside of this newspaper.) Rappahannock Heritage Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan The mist from the mountains slowly rolls down over a field off U.S. 211 in Rappahannock. Teen Dance was success To the Editor: Thanks to “Stir Fry” members Mike Shotton, Stevie Jeffries, Phillip Smiley and Joey Dunagan for providing an entertaining evening of music and cameraderie for CCWHY’s Teen Dance on Aug. 29 at the Washington fire hall. Door prizes were graciously supplied by Cabin Fever Books, Country Heritage and Faith Mountain. Your support is appreciated. Chaperones Marilu and Jim Bane, Susan and Harvey Fox, Anne and Tim Kerr, Linda and Perry Smiley, Linda Mock and John Tole were on hand to supervise and supply great eats. Providing positive, substancefree youth activities and community awareness workshops is a challenge and a vital ingredient in the lives of our children. It is CCWHY’s goal to continue sponsoring alternate youth activities, but this goal can only be accomplished with the commitment of the entire Rappahannock County population. Please read our paper for future workshop dates and join this valuable effort to assure success of our youth population. Thank you again to all who participated in success of CCWHY’s Teen Dance. I hope you all had fun. Any groups willing to provide entertainment for future dances are encouraged to volunteer and contact me at 937-5850. JUDYTOLE Woodville Conspicious consumption To the Editor: JYour Sept. 3 article “Power Plants Pollute Park,” on the front page of the Rappahannock News, has prompted me to address another type of pollution that is directly related. ® Some time in mid-July, a row of bright lights appeared in Tiger Valley, probably along Route 626. At first glance, illumination for a party came to mind, but now that we are into September and the lights continue to burn ALL night - every night - it is clear that someone has installed 10-15 high intensity street lights. What is the purpose of this conspicuous consumption? Security can be achieved with a less offensive alarm system or one good dog. I personally feel safer in Rappahannock County, in the dark, than I ever did in well-lighted cities. So neighbor, give the park, the power plants, your pocketbook, and the night sky a break. Turn on your street lights only to guide company to your home but shut them' off at a reasonable hour. If you miss bright lights, move back to the city. I think you will find most people here are more interested in the night sky being filled with the moon, stars, and milky way, as-it should be - not light pollution. STEPHEN R. WAGNER Washington Sperryville Rescue Squad says thanks To the Editor: On behalf of the Sperryville Volunteer Rescue Squad we would like to thank everyone for their contributions and donations to our fundraising letters and activities. We are now able to order an automatic Life Pack monitoring defibrillator for our rescue unit. Without your support this would have never been possible. We hope to continue updating our equipment and advancing our members’ training to better serve our community. I would also like to take this opportunity to invite anyone who is interested in volunteering some of their time to join us. New members are always welcome. If you are interested please call us at 987-8085 or contact a member. Once again, thanks to everyone and we hope that you will continue to support us. SPERRYVILLE VOLUNTEER RESCUE SQUAD MEMBERS Sperryville The cure is education To the Editor: The cure for the education mess is competition. As long as the present monopoly by government continues, the deterioration will continue. That government schools are not providing quality education is clearly shown by the yearly decrease in SAT scores. They are also quite expensive, and the cost per student is considerably higher than most good private schools. We say we live in a free country yet we are forced to pay for school systems that many find repugnant. Morality cannot be taught; prayer is forbidden; but the child is subjected to courses in sex, drugs, death, or other forms of “values clarification.” Not only are the schools doing a poor job of teaching the basics (reading, writing, arithmetic, etc.) but they are driving a wedge between parents and child. Parental values are being driven out and replaced by attitudes that are without any religiously based morality. What’s the answer? In a truly free country those who want prayer in school ought to have their schools and those who don’t want prayer should have theirs. Similarly, those who want phonics instead of look-say or whole language concepts should each have their schools, and so on. This way no one would be forced to pay for someone else’s idea of education. Government schools should be paid for by those who wish to use them. They would either shape up or close down. It’s as simple as that. If this method of financing education were adopted there would be a tremendous upsurge in the quality of education nationwide. For more information on this subject, call or write me at 381 Sluyvesant St., Warrenton, Va. 22186, phone 703347-0474. A society where there is no competition is not free. Monopoly and compulsion lead to shoddiness and slavery. The educational system must be freed from government mo-| nopoly. To continue on the present? course is to invite inevitable total di-* saster. 1 JIM HUTT* Warrentoi> Letters should be brief, typed and must bear the writer’s name and signature, address and daytime phone number.

From Page A-l kSuit properties on July 1 and July 31 to Consider assessments on the Eastham properties. They visited the property and raised the assessments to $7.2 million for Ben Venue pnd $963,100 for Mr. Eastham’s property. < A final letter from the Board of Equalization to Mrs. Eastham said that following the hearings and a jour of the property, the assessment on 100 acres described as “other” would be increased from $1,000 to l I • $1,200, not $2,000, which was the original proposal from the Equalization Board for the property. The other categories of land were raised as the Equalization Board had originally proposed: 50 acres of tillable land from $1,000 per acre to $3,000, 663.89 acres of pasture land from $2,000 to $3,000 and 1,679.6 acres wooded land from $1,500 to $2,500. The Easthams had not appealed their assessments to the Board of Equalization. That board took the action to raise the assessments on those properties and on property belonging to Thomas B. Massie after other property owners, who were appealing their assessments, said their property was assessed higher than property belonging to the Easthams and Massies. The Board of Equalization wrote' to the Easthams and Massies saying they proposed to increase the. assessments and gave the Easthams and Massies an opportunity to appear before the board and present evidence showing why their assessments should not be raised. Following those hearings the Equalization Board voted to increase the assessments as they had originally proposed except in the case of the “other” land on Ben Venue. The petition filed on behalf of the Easthams asks the Circuit Court judge to “reverse or modify” the actions of the Board of Equalization. It claims that the assessments set by the Board of Assessors “reflected the uniformity and equality required by the Constitution of Virginia,” and that the assessments set by the Board of Equalization “failed to equalize petitioners assessments with other, similar properties...were contrary to the weight of the evidence before the board...were arbitrary and capricious...are discriminatory and are tantamount to a constructive taking of petitioner’s property without due process of law and a denial of equal protection of the laws...” Last Wednesday the Board of Supervisors met in executive session to consider what action to take on the Easthams’ suit against the county and other potential suits. Following that executive session the supervisors voted to hold a special meeting next Monday night to meet with an attorney and the members of the Board of Equalization in executive session to decide what action to take on the suits. County Attorney Peter Luke will not represent the county in these case since his father served as chairman of the Board of Assessors. The assessment on the Eastham properties will not affect the real estate tax they pay since the land is assessed for tax purposes at its land use value rather than “fair market value.” This Monday the Board of Equalization met for the final time to hear Whirlpool Electric Range Model RF365PXXW Weekend • Self-Cleaning Ovsn • Automatic MEALTIMER'I Clock with Minute Timer • Custom Broil Control lER^ Special .$509”* • Iwo o , Iwo 6 High-Speed Plug-In Surface Units , • Lift-Up SPILLGUARF Cooktop • Black-Glass Oven Door with Window (optional white or almond glass available) • Full-Width Storage Drawer RAPPAHANNOCK FARMERS CO-OP Sperryville, Va 703-987-8555 FREE!| *1001 SAVING!

They noted that they are not allowed to consider recent sales in making their decisions since the assessment was based on 1989 and 1990 sales. Nevertheless, recent sales for 1992 have averaged fairly close to the assessments. However some sales have been considerably higher than assessments and others have been considerably lower. Of the 102 cases the Board of Equalization has considered, the assessment was unchanged in 69 cases. It was increased in nine cases and decreased in 24 cases. Equalization Board Chairman E. Franklin Warner said at the Monday meeting he expected to explain to the attorney and Board of Supervisors the process his board had gone through in deciding to increase the assessment on the Eastham properties. He denied that the board had been “arbitrary or capricious” in reaching its decisions. He thanked his fellow board members, Eileen Day, John Ralph and Henry Hudson for their cooperation and hard work and also thanked the staff of the Commissioner of Revenue’s office, particularly Frances Dodson, for her work with the board. “In every action we have been very careful to take into account the things we can take into account,” he said. “We cannot take into account inheritance taxes, land use, or the other responsibilities of landowners. Those things the statute says we should do, we did. Those things it says we cannot do, we didn’t. We have been diligent, and I hope the Board of Supervisors will support the actions we took.” Looking for Bargains Read the Classifieds!

DAR Culpeper Chapter | commemorates signing ofU.S. Constitution By SARAH M. CHEATWOOD Rappahannock Newt Contributing Writer In 1787, 55 men met in Philadelphia to draft what was to become one of the greatest documents created by the hand and mind of man. This document was the United States Constitution. Our founding fathers studied ancient, medieval, and contemporary methods of government. They knew the results of governmental experiments throughout the ages. The Constitution produced the first republic of its kind with separate, co-equal branches that established checks and balances on one another. This revolutionary concept meant that the state was not the giver of power but the recipient. Power was alloted by the people to the government. How fortunate we are that these men penned a document that guaranteed the blessings of liberty for all people in this great nation. We need only to look at today’s headlines reporting world news to find reason enough to eher ish their work. The freedoms unleashed by our Constitution permit us to live free from tyranny and develop our talents and abilities to the fullest. Countless Americans tend to forget how precious the priveleges given to them by the Constitution are. The oppressed in many nations courageously struggle for the basic rights we have been granted with for over two centuries. Last week commemorated the 205th anniversary of the signing of our United States Constitution. The same document that served 13 frail states now serves a world power. Our Constitution is the oldest one still in use today. It is a model many countries attempt to emulate. Let us remember that the responsibility to defend and preserve the Constitution belong to us all.

With 110 students the school is experiencing a significant increase from last year’s enrollment of about 68, according to Walt Longyear, vice chairman of the board of directors. There are five students in the pre-kindergarten class, 34 in the primary school in kindergarten through third grades, 30 in the grammar school in fourth through seventh grades and 41 in the prep school in eighth through 12th grades. Fifteen of these students are from Rappahannock County with the others coming from 10 other counties in Virginia and West Virginia. Mr. Longyear reported that a settlement of all outstanding legal issues was reached with Wakefield School in Marshall and presented to the judge Sept. 8. The terms of the settlement are confidential, he said. Mr. Longyear said he expected more students to enroll in the next few weeks and added “it’s reasonable to expect another 30 to 40 next year. It’s going along with projections,” he said. “We’re starting the year on a positive note.” Twenty-three students were enrolled in Spring Mountain School when it started this Monday. Bethany Craig said the Waldorf school had 12 students in the class for three and four year olds, seven in the class for five and six year olds and four in the class for seven and eight year olds. In the public schools Superintendent David Gangel continues to watch enrollment in kindergarten and first grade closely. On Monday there were 100 students in kindergarten, the maximum for four sections. There were 71 students in first grade on Monday. Dr. Gangel said he would call a School Board meeting for next Monday evening to present recommendations for dealing with the large kindergarten enrollment.

• Community News • Obituaries Rappahannock News • Real Estate • Classifieds THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1992 LVA group marks its 2nd year By LEE BIRD Imitinirti Neva Contributing Writer Members and volunteers of the local literacy group, LVA Rappahannock, will gather at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 3 at the Courthouse to mark the completion of its second year of operation as an affiliate of Literacy Volunteers of America Inc. Rose Ann Sharp, executive director of the Child Care and Learning Center, will address the group on the subject of family literacy, which makes the joy of reading and learning a family enterprise to the benefit of parents and children alike. The public is invited to this meeting. In its first beginnings, the local literacy effort was centered in the old library, where tutors and learners crowded in among the surrounding bookshelves, with dim lighting, to teach and learn both basics and high school fundamentals. This past year, the group moved into larger, well tarnished, and amply lit quarters in the basement of the new county library - space made available through the generosity of the Library Board. With the volunteer effort of Ted Chapman, John Hartline, Ethel Bailey and Lee Bird, the walls and ceiling were painted, the window curtained, and furniture, both donated and surplus, installed. And when the directors at the first board meeting in November complained of the cold rising from the cement floor, a committee, with delighted unanimity, selected carpeting which was promptly laid, putting an end to the problem of cold feet. Also, during the year, a grant application was submitted to 7-Eleven Stores, which resulted in a grant of Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Tutor Libby Whetzel,left, works with Shirley Phillips. $1,500, to be used for the purchase of a computer. With the aid and advice of Helen Williams (formerly Helen LaCava), we selected a computer, printer, computer work station, and related equipment, to which was added instructional software - in the form of floppy disks - contributed by Leonard Cowherd of the Piedmont Technical Education Center. This equipment and software is nqw in place and ready for use. As a matter of interest to those who are not computer-literate, the equipment includes a microsoft compatible serial mouse and mouse pad. With the mouse, one can play solitaire - but the computer will simply not tolerate cheating. Students using reading and math software will be in charge of their own learning and receive the reinforcement and immediate feedback they need to make steady progress. Computer literacy will put them in a forward position in today’s technological society. With the opening of school, LVA Rappahannock’s program of instruction begins. We have about 20 tutors and nearly 25 learners ranging in skill level from basic to high school fundamentals. This spring, two of the candidates for the high school equivalency certificate (GED) passed their exams and earned their certificates. Their success brings joy and inspiration to tutors and learners alike. Besides instructing members of the general public, LVA Rappahannock has an ongoing program at the jail for inmates who are interested in improving their skill levels. Margaret Gottlieb and Ted Chapman have led this effort, with the kind cooperation of Captain Hitt of the Sheriffs office. All of the instruction offered by LVA Rappahannock is performed by volunteers, who are supervised by Libby Whetzel; there is no charge required of learners other than a commitment to learn. The GED (high school equivalency) students and tutors meet every Monday night from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the county library.

'Mindwalk' explores unusual ways of looking at the world Four-star film to show at theater on Sept 30 By DIANA BIRD Kappahtin nock Ncwa Contributing Writer “Mindwalk,” the four-star film is coming to the theater at 7:30 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 20, is set at Mont St. Michel, in France, featuring Liv Ulman, Sam Waterston and John Heard. It is a conversational exploration of unusual ways of looking at the world and our society. Its purpose is to provoke us to reconsider some of our most basic rssumptions. “Mindwalk” is based on “The Turning Point, Science, Society and the Rising Culture,” by Fritjof Capra, a physicist and philosopher. ‘All of us have had insights that prepare us to see ‘Mindwalk’ because we have noticed anomalies in our existence and the world around us that conventional thinking and science don’t take into account.’ — Diana Bird In “The Turning Point” Capra summarizes the history of physics in Western culture, showing how discoveries in what branch of learning have led the scientific revolution and have shaped scientific concepts in all other areas of investigation. He says that discoveries in modern atomic research point to a theory that the universe is an organic whole. He thinks that many advances in science in the future will depend upon approaching the unknown holistically, rather than by isolating and breaking down everything into smaller and smaller parts. Capra traces, in “The Turning Point,” the history of many aspects of our society affected by the scientific revolution, which began in the Renaissance. He shows how major scientific themes developed in the early days of physics research have been successfully employed to organize work, our thinking and the transformation of society from a handicraft one, so to speak, to a robot view of almost anything. He postulates that we have exhausted this approach as a means to address most of the problems confronting us. For instance, science and the scientific approach haven’t touched poverty, the threat of environmental degradation, including over-population, the likelihood of war and what hunger and disease are doing to people in vast areas of the world, to say nothing of homelessness, illiteracy, crime and lack of opportunity at home. Science hasn’t made human relations or cooperation easier, and prejudice and hatred are as rampant today as in the Dark Ages. All of this is true in spite of the growth of the many social sciences, including medicine. Today, convential thinking, invoking science, discounts social issues (“You can’t change human nature”) and ridicules the notion that human beings can be better than beasts of the jungle, preying on one another, unconscious of our part in a universal system of being. Conventional thinking, determinist in many ways, would urge us to resign ourselves to extinction as if we were dinosaurs, to deny that possibility, or to work for another world - in space! Some people recently have been suggesting that we look for solutions to crime by investigating human genes. Taking off from Capra’s work, “Mindwalk” asks us to imagine that we inhabit an inter-connected universe that functions like a great organism. It challenges us to entertain ideas, suggested by the discoveries of atomic physics, that may be as strange as subtraction or multiplication would seem if all we knew about was addition. All of us have had insights that prepare us to see “Mindwalk” because we have noticed anomalies in our existence and the world around us that conventional thinking and science don’t take into account. Plan to see this film on Sept. 20. You will be gripped by it as well as delighted by its beauty. Castle Trio: authentic music, instruments By FRANCES BISHOPP Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Rappahannock County will be treated to an unusual concert this weekend at The Theatre in Washington when the Castle Trio, from the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History, will perform music from the early classical period. What sets this concert apart, however, is that not only is the music from another century, the instruments are as well and the overall effect is to bring to the audience a most authentic musical experience. A blend of historical and musical research has enabled the Smithsonian to duplicate the 18th century musical experience. And the artists have learned specific techniques in order to play these instruments which were the predecessors to modem instruments today. The concert is the first in the new “The Smithsonian at Little Washington” series which will bring musical groups from the Smithsonian to perform in Washington, Va. The Castle Trio with members Lambert Orkis, Marilyn McDonald and Kenneth Slowik perform music that is considered standard repertoire to classical musical audiences, yet their approach to the music and the use of period instruments offers most listeners a unique concert experience. The Castle Trio is unusual for many reasons, but its efforts to present classical music as authentically Kenneth Slowik as possible, sets it apart from many other musical groups. The group uses only antique instruments and reproductions of antique instruments. The piano, built by Thomas and Barbara Wolf of The Plains, is a replica of a late 18th century instrument (1788) built by Johann Dulcken in Munich, Germany. Mr. Slowik, in a recent interview with The Rappahannock News, explained that the National Museum of American History has a collection of 3,000 musical instruments from the 16th to the 20th centuries. “For about 25 years, we have been working with those instruments to take a fresh look at a lot of European and, more recently, American music,” said Mr Slowik. The Dulcken piano is part of the Smithsonian collection of more than 250 keyboard instruments. The fiveoctave piano - modern pianos are seven and a half octaves - is typical of the grand pianos that Mozart composed on, explained Mr. Slowik. The program planned for Washington, said Mr. Slowik, is one of the pieces by Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven that were written in the last 15 years of the 1700s. The Dulcken piano is a copy of the piano that was used during that period. “This piano has a bit of a different sound,” said Mr. Slowik. “It actually looks more like a harpsichord than a modem grand piano.” The trio pianist is Lambert Orkis. The violin is played by Ms. McDonald and Mr. Slowik plays the cello. Ms. McDonald’s violin was made in 1665 and Mr. Slowik’s cello was made in 1748. Both of these intruments bring a unique quality to the work, said Mr. Slowik. He explained that to find people in modem orchestras playing instruments that are this old is not that unusual, however, the trio ’s instruments have been changed in two different ways at two different times. Most recently, around the time of the first world war, people switched over from playing cat gut strings to metal strings. “This made a big difference,” said Mr. Slowik. “Metal strings were better in certain ways, they didn’t go out of tune as easily. But they had certain disadvantages too.” Both Mr. Slowik and Ms. McDonald use strings made with gut and their bows date from the late 18th or early 19th century. “This type of technique carries a vital musical impact,” Mr. Slowik explained. “Playing a Mozart sonata on a modern piano is an entirely different experience than playing it on the Dulcken.” “A modem piano never uses its own range, so you get a picture of Mozart as a very polite, retiring fellow,” he said. “The same piece of music played on an instrument from the same period uses its whole range, therefore creating a much bolder piece. The personality of the music changes.” The Castle Trio has been together for eight years. They perform at the Smithsonian on a regular basis as they are a “trio-in-residenee.” They also record for the Smithsonian label and for an English company called Virgin Classics. The trio tours abroad as well. In addition to his performing, Mr. Slowik is the director of the Chamber Music program at the Smithsonian. The Castle Trio will perform at 3:30 p.m., with a talk scheduled at 2:30 p.m., on Saturday, Sept. 19. “The Smithsonian at Little Washington” series will continue throughout the year. Ingenuity is key to cheating at golf Cool Carl’s concert went well at the theater last Saturday night. If I thought I could get that much applause, I would have had one of my own. If there is anything that reminds me most of how unfair life is, it is my golf game. Last Friday I sliced my usual slice into the tall grass of the rough. My partner reminded me that you could not move the ball to a more acceptable lie when the ball is in the rough. (He had a wager on the outcome of this particular game). A few moments before he had placed his ball into a better position in the middle of the fairway explaining that with the rules we were playing, this was acceptable in the fairway. Who needs to move a ball in the fairway, for crying out loud? In the rough or in the sand trap is where you need some help! Unfair, it’s another instance where the rich get richer. The disadvantaged has to take the biggest whippen. That is why I have always advocated cheating at golf. That takes a lot more ingenuity and certainly adds a lot more excitement to the game. It is like buying a new car. A rich guy goes in and the owner of the dealership sells him a car and takes a hundred dollar loss just because the guy is rich. The dealer bows and scrapes and whimpers. The rich man doesn’t even need a break, it’s the poor guy that needs a break, but oh no! I go into the same place and the assis Day By Day tant to the assistant’s assistant won’t give the time of day until I furnish my social security number so he checks my credit rating, after that he tries to sell me a car listed in the ads at $7,000 for $12,500. The Flint Hill Fire and Rescue Squad announced in this paper last week that they were going to give away a gun a month starting in November. It would make more sense, if a rescue squad was trying to cut expenses and raise money, to raffle off a good first aid kit. But a gun? I believe I mentioned before that in Texas they found_ statistics showed more deaths were caused by guns in the home than by automobile accidents. They decided to correct that by raising the speed limit. 1 have an uneasy feeling about the above, since I live about 200 feet from the Flint Hill Fire and Rescue Squad. It might take a pretty big fire to attract any significant notice. Just joking fellas! Roundabout Auditions for play Auditions for The Shepards’ Play/ a 14th century Nativity drama, are scheduled at Ki Theatre, Old Town Hall on Gay Street in Washington, Va. at 2 p.m. on Sept. 27 and at 7 p.m. on Sept. 28 and 29.

Information Is sought Scott McBride, a resident of Sperryville, is doing historical reearch on the Hawkins family builders. Beginning in the 1870’s, three generations of Hawkins’ constructed many of Rappahannock’s finest homes, churches and public buildings. Anyone with interesting stories about these builders, including owners of Hawkins’ houses, is requested to contact Mr. McBride at 987-9550. Mr. McBride is a carpenter and a journalist. He is especially seeking any old photographs or documents such as bills or contracts that might be relevant. 'Mlndwalk' Is movie “Mindwalk,” rated PG, starring Liv Ulmann, Sam Waterston and John Heard 1 will be shown at The Theatre at Washington, Va. on Sunday, the weekly RAAC-sponsored movie. Based on the non-fiction book “The Turning Point” by futurist and Green Party theorist Fritjof Capra, the film is basically an extended vignette about two old friends. One of which is a failed U.S. presidential candidate, (Sam Waterston) the other an expatriate poet (John Heard). The politician is going through a particularly troubled time when the two meet in Northern France. They accidentally meet a somewhat disillusioned physicist (Liv Ullmann) while touring the islet of Mont St. Michel.
