VS - H.v* Gone, not forgotten O'Bannon ends Flea Market By M. SEAN KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer The flea market at The Sperryville Emporium has closed for the season, and its fate next year is undecided. In previous years the vendors have kept their tables up nearly to Thanksgiving, but not this year. The end came earlier than most had planned, following a nudge from John McCarthy, the county’s Zoning Administrator. He wrote to Maurice O’Bannon, owner and operator of the Emporium, in late October, informing O’Bannon that the existing use level on the Emporium’s lot did not meet the county’s zoning requirements. Specifically, McCarthy objected to overnight camping by vendors and others in the parking lot. “Overnight camping is not allowed in this Zoning District and must cease immediately,” he wrote. McCarthy did point out in his letter, however, that flea markets are permitted by right in Highway Commercial zones, and O’Bannon could submit a site plan denoting adequate parking, loading and related matters to his office. It was the tip point for O’Bannon, who delivered a copy of McCarthy’s letter to each vendor on his lot alongwith a notice to Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Sean Kilpatrick Shoppers float through the Emporium’s flea market for the last time. please clean up and leave by Election Day. His decision to close down the flea market several weeks early on short notice left vendors groping for words. One, who refused to give his name, said he had been coming to the Emporium for the past three years. “We are devastated,” he said. “It is most disheartening. It is kinda like a family breaking up.” he added. The vendors have been set ting up their tables shortly after Easter and then leaving them up throughout the spring and summer. Come Sunday evening, they have been covering their tables, still loaded with goods, with blue tarps and lashing everything down. Not one of the tables has been disturbed, except by the wind. When the wind has blown over a table or two, Emporium employees have picked up the merchandise, put it back on the tables and refastened the tarps. R. E. Safley of Charlottesville said he had been coming to the Emporium as a flea market vendor for about eight years. “I’ve met some mighty nice people here,” he said. Like other vendors interviewed for this story, he could not remember ever losing merchandise he had left out on a table during the week. “I did lose a See Market, Page A-8 Lost hiker is located on Old Rag By M. SEAN KILPATRICK and LOU HATTER Kpppahannock News Staff Writers NETHERS — A 12-year-old boy was found uninjured late Monday morning near the base of Old Rag Mountain, almost two days after he became separated from his hiking companions near the top of the mountain. Donald Wentz, of Partlow, Va., near Fredericksburg, was found walking along the Weakley Hollow fire road with an unidentified hiker by Park Ranger Robert Fleming. The ranger said the youth seemed so calm it took him a moment to realize he was the lost boy who more than 100 searchers, including five dog teams, were looking for. The youth was examined by rescue squad personnel and taken to the University of VirginiaMedical Center in Charlottesville, where he waskept overnight Monday for obser-! vation. A hospital spokesman said Wentz suffered from “mild hypothermia,” a lowering of the body’s core temperature caused by exposure, and a small cut on his right knee, but otherwise was in good condition after his 45-; hour ordeal. ! Searchers had feared for the' boy’s life after temperatures on the mountain plummeted below freezing See Search, Page A-8 One man shot at Pine Knot Inn By M. SEAN KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer A fight between two women grew out of control Saturday night at the Pine Knot Inn on U.S. 211 between Washington and Sperry ville. It ended, according to Sheriff John Henry Woodward, when an unknown man fired four shots through a window at the crowd inside, injur ing Walter Freeman, 62, of Washington. Freeman was hit by one large caliber bullet, which went through his arm and lodged against a rib, Woodward reported. Freeman was taken to Culpeper Memorial Hospital, where the bullet was removed Monday afternoon. A hospital spokesman said he was in good condition after the operation. Sheriff Woodward said the disturbance was first reported at 11:26 p.m. Saturday. According to witnesses, he said, one man reacted to the expanding disturbance over the fight by going outside to get a gun. When the bouncers saw the man returning with a gun in his hand they closed and locked the door. Woodward said. The gunman then went around the building and fired four shots through a window, Woodward said. One of those shots hit Freeman, after first chewing up a section of the window frame, Woodward said. The Sheriffs Department is looking for a Culpeper resident in connection with the shooting, Woodward added. The sheriff also said that on Nov. 5, Frank Strickler of Route 1, Huntly, reported that 20 locust trees had been cut down and stolen from his property. On Nov. 3, said Woodward, the owners of Hackley’s Store in Amissville filed a complaint against Samuel Berry of Washington, Va., for fraud. On Nov. 1, the county’s Animal Warden, Johnny Ray Pullen, had a See Shooting, Page A-8 Old Rag Bulletins Deer season begins Monday The big game season begins in earnest on Monday, Nov. 16, one-half hour before sunrise, when hunters take to the woods and fields looking for bucks.

Foreigners enjoy year By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Six foreign exchange students are sharing a year in the United States at Rappahannock County High School this year. They come from Europe, Asia and South America, and they are amazed to find many Americans don’t know where their countries are. Sari Pelliman from Finland is living with Pat and Dick Helmer in Castleton. She went out for cross country this fall and found herself the only girl on the team. “The guys treated me really nice,” she reported. She won a medal in the district cross country meet and narrowly missed Winning flne in re-’ gionals. Since coming to the United States she has tried water skiing, horseback riding, golf and weight lifting. She plans to play volleyball in the winter, and in spring she is faced with choosing between track and softball. She explained that in Finland she plays Finnish baseball, a similar game using a longer bat and much smaller ball. One of her favorite activities is shopping, and she says she wishes she had more money to spend “because things are so much cheaper here than in Finland.” She reported that when she wanted to cash a check in a store and showed her passport the sales clerk asked if Finland was a part of Canada. Kayoko Minouri from Japan is living with Jeb and Vinnie Carney near Woodville. She reports that although she knew bbfore she came that cars in the United States drive on the right side of the road, rather than the left as in Japan, she was still startled to find cars coming towards her on the left. She says it is surprising to find that students in high school drive cars. Kayoko says she finds school in the United States much less strict than in Japan and says at home she never had any choices about courses to take in school. "American students have a more relaxed time than students in Japan,” she said. She enjoys American food but sometimes misses Japanese food. “We h’ave American food in Japan, but there is no Japanese food here," she said. She also plans to play volleyball this winter. She says she sometimes misses metric measurements. Jurgen Venema from Germany See Exchange, Page A-8 Swatman shines in finale The Rappahannock High School girls basketball team closed out its season Monday night with a first round loss to George Mason. The lady Panthers were down by only two points, 20-18 at the end of the first half, but could not keep pace with the top-seeded team in the second half. George Mason was up by five after three quarters, 91-26, and pulled away in the final period to win 48-35. Last week the Panthers lost a hard-fought game to. Brentsville 46-44. It was the last home game for Emma Swatman and Susan Payne, both seniors. Swatman, who led all scorers with 21 points, kept the home team in the game, even though they were playing catch-up most of the evening as Brentsville led from the opening tip. With less than a minute to go, the Panthers managed to tie the game at 44 all.

Park will close parts of Drive Due to illegal hunting pressure which occurs along the Skyline Drive during hunting season, portions of the Drive will again be closed to vehicles for certain night hours during hunting season. Shenandoah National Park Superintendent J.W. Wade noted that several arrests were made last year, some for felony hunting-related charges. ' From Nov. 9, 1992, through Jan. 4, 1993, the Skyline Drive between Front Royal (Mile 0) and Thornton Gap (Mile 31), and between Swift Run Gap (Mile 65) and Rockfish Gap (Mile 105), will be closed daily between dusk and 8 a.m. The section of the Drive between Thornton Gap (U.S. 211) and Swift Run Gap (U.S. 33) will remain open 24 hours per day, weather permitting. Wade said, “By closing portions of the Drive, rangers will be able to concentrate patrols on problem areas and increase hunter contacts along the Park boundary.” “The Park has a reward program to assist in combating illegal hunting within the Park,” Wade said. A reward will be paid to any person who furnishes information that leads to the conviction of anyone who hunts, transports or attempts to transport illegally taken wildlife within Shenandoah National Park. The identity of all persons furnishing information will be strictly confidential, and a person does not have to reveal his/her name. If you have any information concerning illegal hunting activities within the Park, please call your nearest ranger station or Park Headquarters, 1-800-732-0911 (only in area codes 703 and 804) or 703999-2227.

Robert Hall was indicted for three offenses against a 16 year old girl in August, 1991. He was charged with attempted rape, sexual battery and with rape. The separate offenses allegedly occurred during the course of one afternoon. Sheriff John Henry Woodward said in open court that he believes Mr. Hall is living in Florida and will have to be extradited before he can answer the charges. While the Grand Jury was in session, Judge Shore Robertson worked diligently to clear some cases off hisdocket. Thomas Roy Berry, 22, of Winchester had been convicted earlier of grand larceny for the theft of a coffee wood tree. Judge Robertson agreed to a plea agreement and sentenced Berry to five years for grand larceny and 12 months for trespass, then suspended all but 90 days of the sentnece. Berry will have to serve two years of supervised probation and make restitution of $1,680 to John Dixon, the property owner within six months. Anthony Allen Sheffield, 20, was before the court to offer a plea agreement to four charges stemming from two break-ins last year, one at the home of Nancy Walker and the other at the home of Richard Raines. Judge Robertson refused to accept the plea agreement until he has seen a pre-sentencing report prepared by the Probation Office. The case was held over until February, 1993. The judge also delayed sentencing James Preston Walters for the theft of chain saws and for escape. Attorney John Margan, Jr., argued on Walters’ behalf that the convictions for theft of the chain saws should be overturned because they were based solely on the tainted confessions of convicted felons. After listening to arguments by Morgan and rebutals from Peter Luke, the Commonwealth’s Attorney, Judge Robertson delayed any ruling until Jan. 11,1993. He also delayed sentencing Walters for escape, to which he has pleaded guilty. Doris E. Ferguson got a break from the judge. She was before the court to be sentenced for possession of cocaine. It was brought out in court that she has completed a 28day treatment program for drug abuse, has a place to live, and is trying to get her life turned around. Judge Robertson decided to vacate the finding of guilt and placed her on one year of supervised probation (to include drug testing), even though she has more than 20 prior misdemeanor convictions. Herbicide leaching studied BLACKSBURG - Eastern Virginia farmers who use no-till planting techniques generally don’t increase the risk of leaching pesticides into surface and groundwater supplies, according to a recently completed Virginia Tech study. No-till or conservation tillage practices use special machinery to insert seeds into the ground, rather than plowing up turf. This greatly reduces soil erosion, but a higher level of chemical controls is generally needed to protect crops from weeds and disease with no-till operation. Some farmers and environmentalists have worried that any erosion control benefits from no-till would be offset by possible pollution increases from the additional chemical use. While “there is some increased leaching (of pesticides) with no-till, because we do have more water moving into the soil., .it appears notill does not represent a greater threat to groundwater,” said Dr. Conrad Heatwole, associate professor of agricultural engineering. “I believe this is good news for conservation tillage and for protecting our surface and groundwater1 supplies, he said. Mr. Heatwole cautioned that his study was only valid for Eastern Virginia farm soils. More tests are needed in other parts of the state, where clay soils are more prevalent. * t the Hog BBQ PIT Rappahannock News staff photo by Sean Kilpatrick Debbi and J. D. Hartman, outside their new restaurant west of Sperryville on U.S. 211. High on the Hog offers smoked meats, Cajun cookin' and more By M. SEAN KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer A new restaurant has opened just west of Sperry ville. J. D. and Debbi Hartman of Warrenton have found a new home for their catering business in the building formerly occupied by the Horseshoe Hills restaurant. High on the Hog will offer fresh cooked pork barbecue, as well as barbecued chicken and ribs with all the trimmings. The Hartmans have been operating a catering service for five years in the area, bringing their barbeque pit on a trailer to the party and cooking the food on the spot. That business will continue, say the Hartmans, but they hope more people will come to know their special brand of barbecue at the restaurant about a mile and a half west of Sperryville on U.S. 211. Inn's uencler studies during British exchange Amy Dencler, Chef de Partie at The Inn at Little Washington, made her first trip to England recently, where she participated in The Inn’s international culinary exchange program. Dencler, who graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in 1988, spent a week at two of England’s greatest country house hotels, Le Manoir aux Quat’ Saisons in Oxford and Gidleigh Park in Devon. Reciprocally, a young chef from Oxford, Stephen Bulmar, came to Washington, Va. to work at The Inn — his first visit to America. Outside of London, Dencler worked in the kitchen under the tutelage of Raymond Blanc, recognized as one of the world’s most talented chefs. The 15-hour days were “all worth it,” said Dencler. “Chef Blanc is inspiring. ” In many ways, Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons is self-sustaining, Dencler said. They have a small orchard and grow most of their vegetables. This made the experience of working there all the more special, she added. One of the highlights of the trip was to travel into London with Le Manoir’s driver, Colin, who picks up the daily shopping. Dencler saw a culinary insider’s view as they visited produce houses, fish distributors, a bakery and a flower wholesaler. After spending a few days as a tourist in London, Dencler boarded a train for a memorable trip through the English countryside, past storybook villages of thatch-roofed huts to the seaside city of Devon. Here she spent four days working in the kitchen at Gidleigh Park, where she said, she found the staff and local residents to be charming. At Gidleigh Park she studied the products particular to Devon, especially the cheeses and clotted cream that the area is so well known for. Joined by chef Chaz Greene and business manager Zack McKinney, the Hoffmans plan to open the restaurant throughout the week, except for Monday. Hours will be 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., except Friday and Saturday nights when they will stay open until 8 p.m. “If you can’t come and sit awhile,” said J.D., “we offer carryout service on all of our barbecue.” Greene said he enjoys preparing creole dishes. Formerly the chef at Napoleon’s restaurant in Warrenton, the menu already includes red beans and rice, and Hopin’John, and he expects to add weekend specials during the coming months. All of the meat is barbecued over cherry logs, which J.D. said he believes has a milder flavor than the somewhat traditional hickory. The restaurant also plans to feature smoked seafood, including trout and bluefish. Steamed crabs and shrimp are another favorite of the Hartmans and Greene. “We don’t do just fish and pork,” J.D. said. “We also smoke duck and turkey.” His pork barbecue is slowcooked for 12 hours and then cooled for two hours in the cooker before the meat is pulled off the bone. He smokes his ribs and chicken for four hours, he said. The Hartmans, along with Greene and McKinney, are looking forward to running a family restaurant with moderately priced meals. Although they plan to apply for an ABC license to offer beer and wine, the four are adamant that High on the Hog is going to be a friendly, pleasant, family-oriented restaurant.

SEAN KILPATRICK • Editor, Rappahannock New* Now that the dust has settled on the election, and the pace here at the Rappahannock News has subsided to its usual non-stop gallop, I thought it would be a good time to get acquainted. My background is in newspapers. I began with the Culpeper Star-Exponent in 1968 and returned there in 1974 after working for newspapers in Fredericksburg, Newport News, and Annapolis, Md. I started working for managing editor Bill Diehl in Culpeper as a cub reporter fresh out of college. Over the next several years 1 worked at general reporting, photography and editing, before coming back to this area to be managing editor. I left the daily newspaper grind to spend more time raising children. (Working for morning newspapers meant leaving for work before the children got home in the afternoon and waking in the morning after they had left for school.) My wife, Sharon, and I have long considered Rappahannock county to be our home. We moved back here permanently in 1974 and have lived in the F. T. Valley ever since. Our two children, Heather and Douglas, went through the County’s public school system and both have graduated. It’s good to be working at the keyboard again, but holy smoke have things changed. This computer keyboard and flickering green screen are a far cry from the typewriters of 20 years ago. Almost nothing is left of the older way of producing a newspaper. The old hot lead type was mostly gone from small newspapers, Of course, when I first met Walter Potter and Bill Diehl. But reporters still wrote their stories on typewriters, and editors still marked Up the copy with soft-lead pencils before passing it on to others who actually set the type. ? No more! Today I am forced to write on this computer with its clicking keyboard, and then the story is sent by telephone line directly to another computer that drives the typesetting equipment. It’s different. Some things haven’t changed for me, however: -- At the national level, I still believe Jefferson was right. That government is best that governs least. — Good public schools are vital to the health and wealth of our community. I have supported them and will continue to do so. -- Residential housing seldom generates enough tax revenue to pay for the services it requires. Which is a nice way of saying that more houses invariably mean higher taxes. Land use taxation is a way of moving tax liability away from farmland and onto residential housing, which requires the county services that cost so much money. w - Small towns and villages are helped by bypasses. When the highway department was planning to bypass Washington, many residents opposed the plan. They believed the town would wither away if the through traffic were diverted. The highway department didn’t listen and today the town is far more prosperous than before. Now the highway department is planning to move the Route 522 traffic around Sperryville on a bypass. It will be a nicer place and the business cMmate will improve when that bypass is built. (Where to put it is another issue altogether.) - Honest, open, vigorous debate allows those in a democracy to reach sound decisions on matters of public policy. A Newspaper should assist such debates by allowing the widest possible access to its letters column. (But letters that are typed, double-spaced, will tlsually gain quicker access.) If we miss reporting a story, please let us know. If you want to ft°P by and talk about history, politics, schools, landfills, town lighting, or whatever, please do so. We’re not planning to go anywhere. We like it here. Always have. Always will.

GOP chairman thanks volunteers To the Editor: On behalf of the Rappahannock County Republican Committee, I would like to thank all those that supported the re-election of President Bush and Congressman Wolf through your voting and donations of time, material and financial help. Although President Bush did not win re-election, Virginia was counted firmly in support of conservative principles. Again, many thanks. RON FRAZIER Chairman, Rappahannock County Republican Committee Avid Democrat corrects record To the Editor: In your Wednesday, Nov. 4, 1992, edition, in reporting on the election results in Virginia and Rappahannock County, you state that President Bush’s victory in Rappahannock marks .only the second time since Truman defeated Dewey in 1948 that a Republican has not won a majority of the votes for president in Rappahannock County.” You then go on to state that “The only other time was in 1964 when President Johnson carried Rappahannock County (and Virginia as well) against Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona." Lest your article become part of Rappahannock’s official political history, I ask you to note that the records of the State Board of Elections show that Rappahannock supported Stevenson, the Democrat, over Eisenhower, the Republican, in 1956 by a vote of 523 to 514; Kennedy, the Democrat, over Nixon, the Republican by a vote of 544 to 426 in 1960; and Carter, the Democrat, over Ford, the Republican, by a vote of 1071 to 881 in 1976. Additionally, in 1968, President Nixon, in carrying Rappahannock County, received 595 votes to 394 for Humphrey and 372 for Wallace, thus receiving substantially less than a majority of the total votes cast, A fair construction of past election results in Rappahannock holds that the county has followed the nation since 1948 with two exceptions, those being 1956, when Eisenhower defeated Stevenson nationwide but ..ost Rappahannock, and 1992, when Clinton won nationally but lost to Bush here. Admittedly, Rappahannock, which has a tradition of supporting Democrats in state races (the only Democratic nominee for Governor that has not carried Rappahannock was Wilder in 1989; even the liberal Henry Howell carried the county over Dalton in 1977), is becoming increasingly Republican, as is most of Northern Virginia. Thank you for allowing me to correct the record.

BUTCH ZINDEL FRANK REYNOLDS Grand Poobahs of FOB (Friends of the Bard) Resident pundit Sen. Eugene McCarthy relishes election results By SHARON KILPATRICK Kappuhannork Nm Stuff Writer Gugene McCarthy, Rappahannock’s resident political sage, was not surprised when George Bush carried the county in the election. He had spent a chunk of last Tuesday morning in his favorite country store and observed that only one of those coming in seemed inclined to vote for Bill Clinton, and the others gave him a hard time. < “You got a car?” one asked. I “Yes,” was the answer. I “You got a TV?” another asked. « “Yes.” < .'“You got a VCR?” ! .'“Yes,” again. ! “You’re doing pretty good. Why Jure you going to vote for Clinton?” he was asked. ; “Because I got all that stuff uniter Carter,” was the answer. ; The former Minnesota Senator relfched that story, and he was also pleased with the election result. He said he had decided a Clinton victory Would be the best outcome, but was also pleased that independent candidate Rosa Perot won a respectable percentage of the vote. Sen. McCarthy was himself a candidate for the Democratic Party nomination earlier this year, a campaign ignored by the networks and most of the major newspapers. In 1976 he ran as an independent candidate for the Presidency in another campaign widely ignored by the media. “I was glad he ran strong,” Sen. McCarthy said of Perot. “I had concluded it would be best to have Clinton win, and I didn’t want Perot to spoil that, but he raised issues the others didn’t face. It’s important the system be opened up to third and fourth parties. He’s demonstrated the only way to do it is to have somebody spend millions of his own money. The system should be opened up so persons don’t have to have that kind of money, and can organize a third party more effectively than they can now.” He noted that Perot almost got one electoral vote in Maine and he said, “I hoped he’d win that one elector so the public would know the electoral college doesn’t have to be the way it is.” Sen. McCarthy said the census determines how many electors a state has, but the states determine how the electors are elected. In Maine there are two Congressional districts. The winner of each district wins one elector and the statewide winner wins two more. Clinton won all four of Maine’s electoral votes, but Ross Perot came close to win* ning one. It is possible in Maine for three different candidates to win electors, Sen. McCarthy said. He noted that in the 1960s there were bills in Congress to have all electors chosen on that basis, but those bills were unsuccessful. “The states have decided they have more identity and power with the winner take all system,” he said. “It’s contrary to the whole trend of one person one vote.” Sen. McCarthy Baid he does not expect the election to necessarily end the “gridlock” in Washington. “I don’t see how Clinton can do all tbe stuff he’s been talking about,” he said. ”11)6 issues are so ill defined between what Congress ran on and what Clinton ran on. ’’ Sen. McCarthy was first elected to the House of Representatives in 1948. “In 1948 there were real issues, civil rights, the Marshall Plan. The Congress was committed to the same things the President was,” he said. But, more than that, Sen. McCarthy does not see the gridlock as the result of one party controling the White House while the other controls the Congress, as both the executive and legislative branches of government step all over each others’ Constitutional areas of responsibility. This was not so when Sen. McCarthy went to Congress. “Those were realy good years, between 1945 and 1970,” he said. “We didn’t have reform, a code of ethics, a budget resolution, or the Federal Election Law. “We paid for the end of World War II, the Korean War, the interstate highway system, the space program, and nuclear armament. We had reasonable foreign aid, and we paid for it. Inflation was about 2.5 percent and unemployment too high at 4 to 5 percent. The national debt increased at an average of $6 billion a year. Now that is the debt fora week.” “We voted to increase taxes a half dozen times; we voted to cut taxes too. There was none of this nonsense about no new taxes,” he said. “The House Ways and Means Committee had primary responsibility for taxes. The bills came out under a closed rule. That meant that the Senate could have one amendment and could modify it only slightly. Tax laws were written by Ways and Means, and they took responsibility, against the Senate, the executive branch and against the rest of the House. Now the Senate initiates tax legislation; there is scattered power and no real responsibility,” he added. Sen. McCarthy noted that the House Appropriations Committee had primary responsibility for the budget. He said the proposed lineitem veto is unconstitutional “because it denies the House its author ity over appropriations. Even in the present budget process there is too much executive power.” Sen. McCarthy added that the Senate’s primary responsibility in foreign relations has been eroded. In'the 50s and 60s most of the committees in Congress were controlled by Southern members with years of seniority. That system worked according to Sen. McCarthy. ‘Those Southerners had no ambitions for the Presidency,” he said. “They looked on the Senate as a place to end their careers. “Harry Byrd was the fairest chairman I had of a dozen or so. He was very conservative, but he ran an absolutely fair committee.” “The operation of Congress needs attention,” he said. “But I don’t see that Clinton has the idea of how it should be done. He sees it as if he had been elected Governor of Arkansas on a larger scale, as though he was the elected governor of the United States. Sharing the balance of powers as a concept in the Constitution has been confused.”

line macni the Rappahannock News 30 YEARS AGO November 15,1962 Raymond M. Johnson of Woodville, who has been employed part time with the Virginia Division of Forestry since 1948, was given full time status November 1, as Chief Forest Warden for Rappahannock County. In making the announcement last week, John Jackson, Piedmont District Format Fire Chief, stated that Mr. Johnson’s duties include reforestation, fire suppression and control, timberland examination and marking, forestry management, disease spotting, and keeping fire trails in condition for fire service use. There are over 64,800 acres of privately owned timberland in Rappahannock. Mr. Johnson is assisted when necessary by 16 local wardens and is closely associated with the six volunteer fire companies in this county. < Levi Atkins of Amissville brought a large turnip which he Had grown, to the News' office last week.

Criteria for selection are scholarship, participation and leadership in academic and extra curricular activities, citizenship and service to the college. Certificates of recognition will be awarded to the students later in the year. Miss Jean Carter Moffett, daughter of Judge and Mrs. William Francis Moffett Jr. of Washington, will receive an award. Angus cattle from Rappahannock breeders competed notably in the Eastern National Show and Sale Saturday in Timonium, Md. One animal from J.R. Latham’s Horner Hill Farm near Amissville placed second in his class. From Thornton River Farm, Viewtown, owned by I.L. Parrish, an Angus placed third in its class. These Angus were purchased from the local farms and finished and shown by the buyer. 10 YEARS AGO November 18,1982 In an attempt to recover from several quarters of below normal sales, Aileen Incoporated last week cut benefits for employees at the company's Flint Hill plant. Manager Wayne Walker acknowledged that workers at the garment factory, Rappahannock County’s largest single employer, will not receive their traditional Christmas -bonus. In addition, he said, holiday pay is being reduced. Employees will have two days off at Thanksgiving but will be paid only for Thursday and will not get compensation for the week the plant is closed at Christmas. Also, sick leave pay will be dropped at the first of the year, Walker confirmed. he declined to predict when the benefits will be restored but described the action as temporary. Walker attributed Observations on the election By JOHN GOOLRICK ; Rappahannock Newt Special Writer • This is the hardest column of the year because as I write this tomorrow is election day and yet all the papers I serve have a Tuesday deadline for receipt of the material. • That means, of course, ballots are still being cast as I mail in or fax the column and that I am unable to Continent on the results although by the time this appears the election will have been over several days. Apolojpzmg to you for such constraints, it is still possible to make some observations about the recent campaigning in Virginia. * We have heard for some time, for instance, pollsters and pundits indicting that people are simply fed up With negative campaigning and outright mudslinging. They have said that Willie Horton tactics will no lbnger work. ; Nice thoughts, in theory, and maybe the election proved them true. I believe from personal observation that there was more attack campaigning than ever in Virginia t^is year in the congressional races, not to mention the relentlessly negative spots seen night after night from the campaigns of the nominees fpr President of the two major parties. pecause of where I live, 1 had a good opportunity to observe the television advertising of the Democratic and Republican nominees for Congress in the new 11th District in Northern Virginia. It was vicious Virginia Through Both Barrels * and no holds barred on both sides with allegations of lies and sleazy tactics flying everywhere. The irony is that I have met and observed both of the candidates who in everyday life are pretty mild-mannered and civil. Obviously, their media gurus told them the best way to win in a district with no past voting history was to portray their opponent either as a crazed tax and spend liberal or a right wing kook. On reflection, maybe redistricting helped account for the proliferation of negative campaigning. It certainly muddied the waters. Right up until the last people were assuring me they were going to vote for the re-election of my employer, though because of gerrymandering he wasn’t running. In the Army they say there are always 10 percent who don’t get the word, but in politics the number may be considerably higher. And that might just be due to a system in Virginia that produces an election year after year after year. With one year-long campaign out of the way within a few weeks, candi dates for governor, attorney general and lieutenant governor and House of Delegates in 1993 will be formally launching their campaigns. And as 1993 draws to a close, we will get pronouncements from candidates for U.S. Senate and Congress in 1994. There are some good reasons for separating, as Virginia does, federal from state elections since it gives an opportunity to sharply focus on issues that affect the state interest and the national interest. Yet the downside, despite the record turnout of this year, is that the public is on an endless treadmill of politics with no relief in sight. Ho hum, another election. So what’s new? At the risk of heresy, I suggest that some consideration be given to shifting the election for governor and General Assembly to the evennumbered non-presidential election year. If we had that system now, We would sit out 1993, vote for statewide offices, U.S. Senate and Congress and House of Delegates and State Senate in 1994 and take another year off in 1995. Of course, in 1996 we would vote for President, U.S. Senate, Congress and, horror of horrors, House of Delegates and therein lies the rub. The party that controls the House is not going to like the idea at all. (Editor's note: John Goolrick, a former political reporter is now an aide-to U.S. Rep. George Allen, R7th Dist.)

Wit no opposition, the Washington town council voted at a public hearing last Wednesday, November 10, to grant the Board of Supervisors a special use permit to construct a radio dispatch tower at the rear of the jail. No one spoke either for or against the permit, although representatives from local rescue and fire crews were present. The tower, to be built at the northeast corner of the jail and standing about eighty feet high, will enable Rappahannock to take calls locally and respond with immediate dispatch of police and emergency workers. The deer season opened with a bang on Monday but judging by the animals turned in at checking stations around the county, it promises to be less than a record year for local hunters. “Rappahannock didn’t have anywhere near as many deer checked on opening day as in years past,” said County game warden Jim Bankston. “The economy has had an impact on hunting pressures. People are are working if they have work instead of taking opening day off to hunt.” He predicted, however, that hunting pressures and the deer harvest will pick up this weekend.

Ames workers pass petitions seeking to keep store open More than 1,000 signatures collected recently By STEVE CAMPBELL Rappahannock N**» Special Writer WARRENTON — Ames Department Store employees here collected more than 1,000 signatures Saturday on petitions asking Ames corporate officials to keep the Warrenton store open. The Rock Hill, Conn.-based company announced on Oct. 30 that it was closing 14 Ames stores in Virginia. The stores in Warrenton and Manassas were included in the list of closings and will go out of business in March of 1993. The Warrenton department store, located in the Town Centre shopping center, opened in 1986 and employs 51 people. The workers at the Town Centre Ames took matters into their own hands last week and began a petition drive aimed at saving their store, which they say has made a remarkable turn around and makes money for the company. Store manager Sandy Porubsky said she has been told that the store has improved it profitability. "That’s what I’ve been told. I got here at the end of July and this store was pretty bad,” she said. According to Ms. Porubsky the petition, of which she has no part in organizing, will most likely go before the company’s chairman of the board. Debby Poe, petition organizer, said many people Saturday hated to see the store close. For many, she said, the closing meant they would have to travel to Manassas to shop. “They don’t want it to close. Most of them feel there isn’t any place else to shop,” Ms. Poe said. The employees plan to continue collecting signatures the rest of this week and then mail the petition and a memo to corporate officials Friday. “We want to show them that the community is behind keeping it open,” Ms. Poe said. Food Lion reacts to ABC broadcast allegations Employees at store vow, 'It can't happen here' By STEVE CAMPBELL Rappahannock News Special Writer WARRENTON —Food Lion grocery store workers here denied that any of the unsanitary practices alleged in a “Prime Time Live” television program last Thursday happen at their store. The program, which aired at 10 p.m., Thursday on ABC, claimed that Food Lion meat and deli workers routinely passed off out-of-date and spoiled meat for good at stores in North Carolina. Program host Diane Sawyer told the TV audience that the show had obtained hidden-camera footage of Food Lion meat department workers re-wrapping spoiled meat, fish and poultry products. A former worker told Sawyers that they had taken spoiled ham and rinsed it in a Clorox bleach solution to kill the odor, chopped the meat and repackaged it as chopped ham. Another worker claimed to have taken spoiled fish and rinsed it in a solution of baking soda and lemon. Again the bad food was put on the shelf for consumers, according to the report. A deli department employee was filmed allegedly putting rice pudding, which had been returned by a customer because it was bad, on top of a batch of fresh pudding. Warrenton Food Lion manager Don Rouker said there was no way in the world those types of activities — if in fact they did occurr — could happen at his store. “I couldn’t live with myself," Rouker said. “I’ve got a family to feed and my wife shops here.” Beth Forry, who works in the store’s front office said, “we’re all upset. “We work long, hard hours here and we think we’re doing a pretty good job,” she said. Food Lion deli department manager Ruth Kesner said the program was an insult to all Food Lion workers. “I took it as a personal insult. They were saying we were lazy, didn’t do our job and were dirty,” she Raid. Food Lion corporate officials claim the “Prime Time Live” reporter who produced the program faked some of the “hidden camera” shots. The company also contends that the four former Food Lion workers were union sympathizers out to hurt the store for blocking unionizing efforts. United Food and Commercial Workers union (UFCW) has tried for years to organize the company’s 60,000 workers in 13 states. Those efforts have been rebuffed by the workers themselves, according to the company. Warrenton store manager Rouker said union people passed out leaflets at his store’s parking lot the night before the program aired. He said similar leaflets were distributed at a Food Lion in Fredericksburg the day of the broadcast. “I think it’s definitely union motivated,” he said. Rouker said there was no way he would force or allow any of the 75 full and part-time employees to do any of the things alleged in the “Prime Time Live” program. “If those allegations were true, I 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.

I couldn’t live with myself. I couldn’t go home and sleep," Rouker said. “I have nothing to hide. I couldn’t work for this company if I had to do something unethical. My wife shops here. I’ve got kids, why would I expose them to stuff like that. She shops right out of the case like everybody else,” he said. The ABC program alleged that the North Carolina Food Lion stores repackaged chicken which had sat on the shelf past the sell-by date. une scene showed a meat cutter removing the plastic from manufacturer-wrapped chicken and then taking the chicken, placing it on a new container, adding barbeque sauce, then wrapping it once more for sale in the store’s gourmet section. At the Warrenton Food Lion, chicken is not repackaged. If not sold by the date placed on the package by the manufacturer, then it is removed from the shelf, according to Rouker. ‘Theoretically this la package of chicken] could come to us bad. Ail I can do is apologize and refund your money,” he said. The employees in the meat department at the Warrenton store said the ABC program reflected badly on meat departments at all grocery stores. They say at their store, as long as they follow company policy, there is no way that the problems alleged on “Prime Time Live” could happen. “In my opinion we are in good shape in this store,” said meat cutter Isaiah Monterrozo.“I wash all the stuff every night and I try to do my best.” He said the claim about rinsing spoiled ham in bleach was “ridiculous.” Leroy Brown said he thought that some of the allegations made on the show may have been true, but both he and fellow meat cutter Tim Surface said they follow company policy at the Warrenton store. “As long as you follow company policy, you’re not going to have any problem,” Brown said. “Meat cutters take pride in what they put out there,” he said. “Our policy is if we won’t buy, the customer won’t buy it.” Rouker offered to give concerned customers a tour of the store. “I’ve got nothing to hide.” But, judging by the responses of the more than a dozen customers in the store Friday after the store, most had not seen the program. Those who did see it did not believe their store was affected. “I have never had any problem,” said Kathleen Cherry, who was loading groceries into a car outside the Warrenton Food Lion. “I think all the stores cut edges. It didn’t affect the way I shop. I’ve never had any EappatiannocfeJleto* offers FAX MACHINE SERVICES To send information: Any U.S. destination $5.00 first sheet $2.00 each additional sheet To receive far information: $4.00 first sheet $1.00 each additional sheet Rappahannock JJetoi Main St. Washington.

The calls were in response to the Prime Time Live program which alleged that Food Lion stores in North Carolina repackaged out-of-date meat and deli products for resale. The program claimed workers in the meat and deli departments of » Food Lion stores routinely disquised spoiled meat, fish and poultry and ,\ then repackaged the products for 4 sale with new “sell-by" dates. “I got 18 or 19 phone messages ■ and did 13 interviews with newspa- : pen?,” Tubbs said. The Dairy and Foods Division inspects businesses and organizations that handle food. Inspectors look for a myriad of * sanitation violations and then work ' with the offending company to cor- ^ rect the problem. If the company, after repeated ’ inspections, fails to correct the problem, the division will present the case to the state Commonwealth attorney for enforcement. Tubbs said the two Food Lion stores in Fauquier County — one in , Warrenton, and the other in Beale- * ton — have a pretty good sanitation record. Those problems that have been found were corrected, according to * Tubbs. Waters to run in state meet By ALICE REEVE Rappahann inock Newt Special Writer Jason Waters, Rappahannock County’s star cross-country runner, will be competing in the State meet Saturday in Charlottesville. Waters placed second out of 96 *• runners in the Region B meet last .*■ week. It was the first time in 20 *1 years that the Rappahannock run- •; ners have participated in that meet. Mark Jenkins placed 34th, Shane < Lambert 35th, Chris Payne 43rd, and Juergen Venema 52nd. Sari Pellinen placed 18th out of 89 girls. The team as a whole epded its season with 10 wins and three losses. The Panthers were fourth in the district and fifth in the regional competition. Jason Waters led the boys team throughout the regular season, placing first in every meet. Running against the girls, Finnish exchange student Sari Pellinen also placed first a number of times. Venema from Germany and Pepe Leal from Spain also were strong runners for the cross country team. Tim Corder has been coaching the cross country team for the past three years. Under his leadership the team has grown in size and ability. Corder and the team are grateful to the Bleu Rock Inn for the use of their property for the school’s cross-country course this season. »limit _. v. u.nii'n' w m From Family Value Wagons to Ultimate Luxury, CHRYSLER Minivans are the BEST Plymouth Grand Voyager IX #1015 Luxuiy Value Package, integrated CWW Restraint Seats PREVIOUSLY OWNED *93 Chrysler Town JL Country §1034 Quad Command, ‘Leather*, All Luxury Options U *86 CARAVAN LE 4 cyl, auto, AC, tilt, cruise, cass. #133C *4995 O ’87 CARAVAN LE 4 cyl, auto.

Stable vaults into gymnastics arena Horses, handstands> hard work combine Mountain Spring Stables, near Sperryville, hosted a day of vaulting for, Rappahannock youngsters and members of the Topaz Vaulting Team from Chantilly last Saturday. Vaulting, gymnastics on horse Alexei Van Buren balances atop Aaron, a 24-year-old thoroughbred while Patti Geyer and Brad Ramsden stand nearby. back, was introduced to the county at the stables in October. Stphanie Siemnes, vice-president of the American Vaulting Association, conducted an afternoon clinic for students from the stables and members of the Rappahannock Pony Club and judged a Medals test in the morning. Heather Marsh, co-owner of the stables, said there were 23 students for the clinic with about half from the Fairfax group. Students began with warm up exercises on the ground, then practiced vaulting moves on a barrel, and by the end of the day were performing on a trotting horse. “It was really fun, a positive good day," Ms. Marsh said. “This is a real teaching tool. It helps build confidence.” Ms. Marsh added that the stable is planning to develop a local vaulting team, incorporate vaulting in their instruction, and host a followup clinic in the spring.

RANCE LEE SPELLMAN October 29,1946—November 9,1982 Every November, we celebrate the life — and memory — of our fallen farm manager. He would be 46. This 10th year since his death is being celebrated as the the Year of the Woman. Ranee would have loved it. He held this notion that wom£i\could master any skill or job normally consigned to men and set about proving it. Upon the slightest flicker disinterest from a woman observing some job he might be doing, he became a teacher—whether he was welding a gate, shoeing a horse, pulling a calf or operating equipment from backhoe to bulldozer. He sought to demystify skills thought then to be the preserve of men alone. And upon discovering that a petite woman half his size was a skilled farrier, he lost no time drafting her to teach him farrier skills. , These attitudes, unusual in today's rural America, were rarer still ten years ago. Nor did he much observe the prevailing social customs toward women of opening doors or farm gates or holding coats or chairs for physically able women. He didn't regard or treat women as helpless children; they were his peers. This year, two talented (and beautiful) young women have won the Spellman Award in this Year of the Woman, Their pages of accomplishments and honors in agriculture and leadership led the interview committee to predief a future secretary of agriculture at least from among them. All life was devalued that day Ranee was slain. Remembering, the antidote to wrongdoing, heals, restores the truth and honors the victim. Memory: the powerful twin of time, fueled by events never to be forgotten and a man who made a difference. Ranee was a Viet Nam veteran. He hated that war, but he went and returned without a scratch. The Viet Nam Memorial celebrates its 10th year this week; Ranee was buried the day it was unveiled. Once more, we will place his picture and this tribute at The Wall—home to so much remembering and honoring and healing. Here at Points of View, we will plant a tree and a special rock that he excavated at his gravesite atop Hickerson Mountain. This magnificent spot with its stunning views has become a place where a visitor can rest awhile, remembering Ranee with his vibrant energy and the joy he found working on this mountain.

He said he misses being able to see a long distance as he can on his family’s dairy farm in northern Germany. He finds his American friends “busy, busy,” with after school jobs. “There is nothing like being able to go with your friends after school or in the evening to cafes,” he said. He says he misses tea, which he drinks every day, four times a day, as many as 16 cups. “It’s a time the family comes together,” he said. “You put rock sugar in the cup, pour on the hot tea and add cream. It’s like a ceremony.” Jose “Pepe” Leal from Spain is living with Tom and Karen Von Fange in Woodville. He agreed that it is surprising to find so many students with after school jobs. He said in his country parents pay for everything for their children until they finish school and go to work. “It’s like everybody has a car and everybody works,” he said. He said he sometimes misses life in a big city. In former years students from Spain found that Americans thought Spain was somewhere near Mexico, but Pepe says that because of the Olympic Games in Barcelona last summer everyone knows where Spain is. Pepe also ran cross country in the fail and plans to play soccer in the spring. He says it is surprising to find students from different grades in the same class. Margarita Cortez from Chile is living with Kent and Nancy Reeve in Gid Brown Hollow. She said she was told that Americans are cold and it would be difficult to make friends. She said she has found Americans warm, friendly and curious to know about her country. She has found that they are confused about Chile, however. They think it is part of Mexico and that all the food is flavored with chili powder. She said she thinks it is good that American students have jobs. “Students here learn independence/’ she said. “They have their own money.” She also said she finds religion more important in American families. “That’s something strong,” she said. “It is good to give values.” Margarita also plans to play volleyball in the winter. Nina Blicher from Denmark is living with Dick and Jeanie McNear in Gid Brown Hollow. She enjoys riding with the Old Dominion Hunt with Mrs. McNear. She tried basketball in the fall but gave it up because it took time from riding. She said she was surprised that America is so much like Denmark and she is amazed that her American family is so much like her Danish one. “It’s in little things,” she said. “My Dad here is exactly like my Dad at home."

Potomac Edison Part of the Allegheny Power System J i Ruby Frye returns, plans opening of sewing shop By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer Ruby Frye is getting ready for an Open House at M & R Alterations & Interior Designs this weekend. Mrs. Frye grew up in Rappahannock and graduated from the high school. She was living in Northern Virginia in January, 1992, when she and her husband, Matthew, decided to get out of the urban sprawl and return to Rappahannock so they could raise their children near family. Then she faced the problem of how they could support themselves in Rappahannock. f Mr. Frye found a job at Miller Honda in Winchester. Mrs. Frye tried commuting into Northern Virginia. “I'd get home at eight at night, and there was no time to do much more than go to bed,” she said. She decided to try her own business. With her husband’s help she started a sewing business. Orders didn’t come in very fast, so she started making decorative pillows, towels, placemats with napkins and blanket throws and selling them at the Emporium flea market. “I’m sorry it closed,” she said. “Sixty percent of my business came from there. I’d sell an item, and a friend would see it and call and order something.” They also went into the business of dressing windows. She makes curtains and valences, but they also sell and install “mini blinds.” Mrs. Frye explained that these are similar to Venetian blinds, but with smaller slats. There are three different vendors they can order from and the blinds come in many colors, she said; Mrs. Frye said most of her window business so far is people having curtains cut down to fit smaller windows. She has had a few orders for dresses, but most of her clothes sewing is people having old clothes repaired. “Rappahannock people are not going to buy anything new unless they have to,” she said. “That's verysmart.” Last week she was sewing up a storm, trying to get a large selection ready for the open house. She has sets of placemats with napkins tucked into a pocket on the placemat. She has pillows in fabrics with Redskins, wildlife, hunt country, and Christmas patterns. And she has the blanket throws, a blanket sewn between two layers of printed fabric. “I can make it as large as a king-sized bed,” she said. However, her most popular size is the TV wrap. “You wrap up in it to watch TV,” she said. “Then when you don’t need it, you throw it on the back of the sofa, and it looks nice.” Her Open House will be from 11 * a.m. to 5 p.m. in her house in Woodville next door to Burke’s Grocery Saturday and Sunday. She is planning to have other crafters showing their work also. Teddy Pellegatta will be selling protographs of local scenes. Plans for other crafters were not definite last week.

He was wearing only light clothing — a jacket over his hooded sweatshirt and a pair of jeans. Wentz told his rescuers that he had eaten the two candy bars he carried and drank two sodas. He said he slept under rock overhangs at night, covering himself with a layer of loose leaves for warmth. At one point, he said, he waved at a helicopter that flew overhead, but the search crew apparently didn’t see him through the dense forest cover. According to Shenandoah National Park spokesman Sandy Reeves, Wentz apparently got separated from the other three children and five adults in his hiking party, a group from Spotswood Baptist Church in Fredericksburg, shortly after they left the 3,268-foot summit of Old Rag about 3 p.m. Sunday. The boy was last seen, according to reports, by a group of hikers who saw him running down the Summit Trail. Members of his party said he ran ahead of the others in a race to the parking lot at the base of the Weakley Hollow fire road, which runs down the northwest side of the mountain. Apparently, after leaving his party Wentz got off the trail, which runs through dense stands of trees on the steep upper slopes of the mountain. Disoriented in the thick underbrush, he quickly got lost as darkness fell shortly after 5 p.m. Wentz told rescuers that he decided to stay put during the night, and got up the next day and began moving, although the inexperienced hiker apparently wandered in circles most of the time. By nightfall Saturday, there were about 20 searchers on the mountain, Reeves said. They abandoned the ground search after dark, but a helicopter with heat-sensing infra-red equipment flew the area looking for Wentz. On Sunday, the search resumed, and more than 100 people, including the Appalachian Search and Rescue Conference, local fire and rescue volunteers, Park Service rangers, dog teams from search organizations and sheriff’s departments and the Vhv ginia State Police joined the effort. The massive search yielded nothing, however, and was suspended again as darkness fell Sunday evening. At dawn Monday, searchers again fanned out, covering a wider area under the theory that the lost youth may have wandered far in the nearly two days since he disappeared. Searchers combed the few abandoned structures still standing in the park’s outback, as well as bams and other buildings on properties abutting the park boundaries. As the search continued, a'group of senior citizens hiking on the fire road saw Wentz pop out of the woods. They were aware of the search, Reeves said, and immediately “collared” the boy. ►Shooting From Page A-l confrontation with Raymond Ralls Sr., of Route 1, Sperryville. The incident occurred at 11:30 a.m. on Route 612 in Old Hollow. According to the complaint signed by Pullen, Ralls blocked his passage and threatened him with a firearm. Ralls has been charged with attempted abduction and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. He is free on a personal bond untii his first scheduled court appearance on Nov. 17.

They are headed for yet another job, on yet another ranch, not knowing the disaster that awaits them. Steinbeck drama to open The Rappahannock players make their reappearance on the local theatrical scene this weekend with an energetic production of John Steinbeck’s classic “Of Mice and Men. ” Set against the backdrop of a California depression era ranch, this powerful work dramatizes man’s inhumanity to man by chronicling the . personality conflicts swirling around the ranch bunkhouse and the itinerant workers (bindlestiffs). The timeless appeal of the play is endorsed by the rave reviews for the recently released new motion picture version. “Of Mice and Men” will be on -stage at the Rappahannock High School’s new and extremely comfortable theater at 8 p.m. Nov. 13, 14, and Nov. 20,21. The central theme binding the play together is the brotherly comradeship between two distinctly different down and outers - Lennie and George. Lennie, huge, strong, the archetype of childish innocence searches for his version of pie in the sky, a couple of acres, a little house and some rabbits he can tend. George, his imaginative partner, the brains of the pair, is a drifter and a dreamer. The total interdependence of Lennie and George, innocent and trusting, is both their principle strength and their fatal weakness. In the local production, Lennie is played by Ray Miller, Vietnam veteran, jack of all trades. Ray has been a carpenter, therapist, guitar maker and knows what it is to live on the Roundabout 'Mediterraneo' is movie “Mediterraneo,” rated PG-13, starring Claudio Bigagli and Vanna Barba will be shown at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 15 at the Theatre at Washington, Va. A little bit of M.. A.. S.. H, a dash of Cinema Paradiso and you have the bittersweet spirit of Italy’s Oscar winner. While occupying the Greek Islands in 1941, a worthless group of Italian soldiers lose contact with the War when their ship sinks and one of the men destroys the radio. Stranded in a village with only women and priests (the Germans took the men away), the soldiers spend the next three years playing soccer, painting frescoes, and taking scheduled turns with the local working girl. “Rescue” from this dazzling blue and white paradise (the Aegean Island of Kastellorizo) means a return to post-war Italy and the work of rebuilding a country. Progress, yes, but not the choice of all. In coming weeks, The Theatre’s RAAC movies series will feature: “Far and Away,” Nov. 22, “Pinocchio,” Nov. 29, “Thunderheart,” Dec. 6, “Batman Returns,” Dec. 13, “Christmas Program,” Dec. 20 and “Patriot Games,” Dec. 27.

George, his companion, is played by Will Arias, a theater student and a student of life in the broader sense. Rounding out the cast are other Rappahannock and Fauquier thespians including Bill Speidel as the nononsense ranch boss. Robin Days plays the bosses son Curley. Newly wed and insecure about it, Curley is lookin' for trouble anywhere he can find it. The cause of Curley’s insecurity, the lithesome bride who gives the guys the eye is played by Rappahannock sweetheart Dafna Laurie. The bunkhouse swamper, an aging cripple fearing the future, is impeccably played by Norman Gettsinger, retired foreign service officer. The reverend Ludwill Brown Plays Crooks, the black stable buck who creates glaring parallels between how the world treats him as a black man and how the world treats Lennie, the affable idiot. Sam Clifton plays Whit the easygoing ranch hand with a liking for “Susies place.” Sam has featured in past players production of “Bedroom Farce” and “Lion in Winter.” The leader of the bunkhouse gang. Slim, strong, kindly and dependable is played by Dave Gilman, an environmental engineer. The task of directing this assemblage has fallen on Howard Coon. Community actors prepare nativity play “The Shepherd’s Play” is in the third week of rehearsal at Ki Theatre for performances which will take place during Washington, Virginia’s annual Colonial Christmas weekend celebrations Dec. 5 and 6. The play has two traditions behind it, one ancient and European, another which is taking root in the community here. The play itself was created by the villagers of the island of Oberfeur, between the banks of the Danube. A theater historian named Karl Schroer discovered and recorded it in the 1840’s, transcribed from several family documents that were generations old when he found them. A century later, A.C. Harwood translated the play into English, part of a trilogy of ancient plays Schroer collected. This Medieval celebration of Christ’s birth is a particularly poignant and earthy portrayal of the nativity story, viewed from feudal farm workers’ perspectives - full of peppery comments on poverty, homelessness, and overtaxation; full of spiritual light transforming these endless human concerns. “The Shepherd’s Play” here in Washington is directed by Ki Theatre’s Julie Portman, with music direction by Beth Levick. Jean FalkMorgan is heading costumes assisted by Margaret Gottlieb. This year’s stage manager is Ellen Manson with Amelia Manson assisting. Assistant Director is Grahame Henson, a resident of Culpeper and an active member of Culpeper’s Windmore Arts Group. This year’s play employs the considerable talents of both Rappahannock and Culpeper residents as characters, singers and instrumentalists. On stage you will see Joyce Abell, Cindy Andreoni, Michael Alexander, Carolyn Alexander, Marge Atkins, Thomas Cottrill, Mike Dunnigan, Anne Furtick, Sid Gottlieb, Margaret Gottlieb, Grahame Hen son, Peter Hombostel, Susan Hombostel, June Jordan, Sean Kilpatrick, Beth Levick, Carol Lucking, Mike Mahoney, Lois Manookian, Ellen Manson, Amelia Manson, Nancy McBride, Jean FalkMorgan, Diane Reyland, Rob Spidel, Amie Wagoner, Lyt Wood, Robert Wright and Helen Ziemer. The benefactor of Washington’s Fourth of July fireworks festival, Mr. William Carrigan, has gener ously provided a matching gift of $1,000 towards the production this year. Donations of any size will be most appreciated to help match this contribution. Donors can send checks made out to The Shepherds’ Play Fund, to P.O. Box 203, Washington, Va. 22747. Ki Theatre needs plenty of volunteer help to stage the event. Call 675-1616 to sign up or for further information. Rappahannock News Staff Photo By Cindy Mahan Assistant director Grahame Henson of Culpeper works with Mike Dunnigan, playing Joseph, as rehearsals continue for the upcoming production of The Shepherd’s Play, playing Dec. 5 and 6 at the Ki Theater in Washington, as part of the town’s Colonial Christmas celebration. Culture Clash Production is raising questions By SANDRA L. PALMER Times-Democrat Special Writer I’ve been to some politically charged productions where I was nearly beaten about the shoulders with the point. It is refreshing to see a play that can raise questions without first screaming the answers. “Third Child,” now playing at the Theatre at Washington, Va., is a story, not an agenda. But even so, the audience was buzzing during intermission. What makes “Third Child,” a su Review perior story is that there is no saint vs. devil conflict here. Many authors have the unfortunate tendency to victimize their characters; something that breeds sighs, not questions. Charlotte Anker and Irene Rosenberg Wurtzel have writtten something more complex than that. Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Sean Kilpatrick Astrid Brinck, left, who plays a fiery Central American teenager in the production of ‘Third Child,’ now playing at The Theatre at Washington, Va., looks at the faceless portrait that figures in this drama about cultural clash and the American family. Peter Thornton, as diplomat Bruce Simmons, and Sarah Wolf as his wife Joan, tell Gatita some of the history of the painting. ‘Third Child’ will continue each weekend through Nov. 22. Curtain times are 8 p.m. Saturdays, Sunday matinees, 3 p.m. For information, call 67^-1253. As “Third Child,” unfolds, we become well acquainted with the Simmons family who is living in Latin America so that Bruce Simmons can further his diplomatic career. They discover a young girl, Gatita, rummaging through their garbage can for food. From the moment they let her into their house to the moment they adopt her into their lives, each of them is on a path of self-discovery. Most prominent in the play is the mother, Joan, and her struggles. She finds herself in a place where she would like to take everyone she sees as “less fortunate” into her life, and she uses all that energy and all those good intentions on Gatita. Determining whether the crew of a live production is superior happens in reverse: if you don’t notice anything going awry, you know that the people behind the curtain have done well. This was definitely the case here. There is a rythm about this play that I’m sure the writing dictates, and director Roland Reed interpreted it well. You know the actors are professional w-hen they come out for their curtain call and you have to remind yourself that they are not the family you have been involved with for the last two hours. I’m not much for re- ■ hashing credits, but suffice it to say. that Astrid Brinck is a poetic Gatita. She has the timing of a comic genius and the anger of a rebel. I was extremely impressed with each perfor- • mance, and on the ride home my husband asked me if we could go to see it again. That 21 inch screen in your living room is no match for the proscenium stage, especially at the Theatre at Washington, Va. It is, to say the least, charming, as is its manager, Wendy Weinberg, and it is small enough that you’re guaranteed a great seat. While I’m still working on the answers, I’m quite certain when it comes to recommending this play. “Third Child,” will be performed Nov. 14 and 21 at 8 p.m. and Nov. 15 and 22 at 3 p.m. Tickets are $10, with group rates and reserved seating available. For reservations and information, call 703-675-1252. -v»

Community invited to Thanksgiving service By HOWARD ZIEMER Rappahannock News Contributing Writer In spite of the many challenges facing the world today, Christian Scientists find time to be grateful, joyful, and expectant of good. As part of the Thanksgiving service to be held by First Church of Christ, Scientist, Warrenton, at 10 a.m. on Nov. 26, a Bible Lesson will be read by two lay readers which will include the following verse from Colossians: “And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.” Mary Baker Eddy, the discoverer and founder of Christian Science, writes in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, “Christ’s Christianity is the chain of scientific being reappearing in all ages, maintaining its obvious correspondence with the Scriptures and uniting all periods in the design of God.” In addition to readings from the Bible and Science and Health, time will be given for testimonies of gratitude by Christian Scientists.

Chili warms up the menu By HELEN W. SMITH Extension A*»nt, Homs Economics It’s almost impossible to get two people to agree on what makes good chili, although most would agree it’s a good cold-weather meal. Some people prefer chopped meat and some ground meat; beans or no beans. Plus every chili cook has some secret ingredient: hot sauce, red pepper, garlic, brown sugar, chili powder, red wine, etc. Some cooks use wild game, like venison, while other prefer a vegetarian chili. If you want to make chin a little “healthier” (i.e. lower in fat and sodium), use extra lean ground beef or ground turkey in place of red meat. Since chili is traditionally high in sodium, cut down or omit the salt and use no-salt-added canned products like canned tomatoes, tomato paste, or tomato juice. Canned beans can be rinsed under cold water to lessen the sodium, or cook your own beans from scratch, omitting the salt. Beans add complex carbohydrates, fiber, and nutrients to chili, as well as being more economical since less meat is required. If you garnish your chili with grated cheese, use one of the low-fat or imitation cheeses to reduce the amount of fat or garnish with vegetables like chopped onion, tomato, and shredded lettuce.

The Culpeper Memorial Hospital Auxiliary has kicked off the season with a bang. This year the Auxiliary celebrates Lights of Love’s tenth year. The proceeds of this year’s Lights of Love will be used to upgrade and renovate the Department of Medical Imaging’s waiting and reception area. “The medical imaging department is delighted to be the recipient of this year’s proceeds. Renovating our waiting and reception area will provide patients and visitors with a more comfortable and pleasing environment in which to wait before and during procedures,” said Debbie Clingempeel, director of medical imaging. “The new changes will also allow patients to speak privately with our staff in the reception area,” added Ms. Clingempeel. “We are pleased that the facilities enhancement project is winding down,” said Bill Gravely, president of CMH. “Renovating this department’s waiting and reception area will put the finishing touches on medical imaging which has some of the heaviest traffic of outpatient departments.” The Lights of Love give Culpeper a grand opening of the holiday season with the ceremony of seasonal carols and the lighting of the Lights of Love tree on the west side of the hospital. In celebration of its tenth year, hospital employees will perform in a live nativity scene that will be held adjacent to the tree. The festivities will take place at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 1. Refreshments will be served. The red and white lights on the 40 foot tree signify those who contribute $5 or more in memory or honor of friends and loved ones. Lights in the star of the tree represent contributions of $50 or more. The names of the donors and of those remembered with lights are recorded in books which will be open in the lobby of the hospital during December. Cards are sent to acknowledge the gifts. In nine years the Auxiliary’s Lights of Love has found its way into the hearts of people in our area and has raised over $88,300 in gross revenue to benefit projects chosen by the Lights of Love committee. In the past Lights of Love proceeds have renovated the pharmacy, purchased equipment for the physical rehabilitative services depart- * ment, furnished the hospital chapel, supported construction of the structural canopy at the front entrance of the hospital, purchased a multi-purpose surgical table, renovated the maternity department, established the Communi-Call emergency response system, and renovated the emergency reception and waiting area. This year’s committee members are Eula Henretty, chairman; Estelle Burnette, co-chairman; and Siegrid Cook, program director. Donations to the Lights of Love may be mailed to the CMH Auxiliary, 1216 Oaklawn Dr., Culpeper, Va. 22701. For information about the Lights of Love, call Eula Henretty at 8258840, or Jill Pegelow in the CMH community relations department at 829-4307, or 672-4322.

Dear Cousin Jennie re-established for me my personal determination to make it, for if she could (she being my senior in years and a woman!) then 1 must! Such a delightful person, who encouraged all of us. We made it to our destination. . .the Mary Frazier graveyard, high up in Frazier Hollow. This cemetery lies on a step knoll across from the old Fred Frazier place. To ascend its hill one must cross the “Devil’s Dancing Ground.” We all beat the Devil and came into the resting place of our kindred a little breathless. Those who had not been here before busied themselves copying names and dates from the markers. We took some refreshments among our quiet relatives, checked our watches (noting it was five minutes to one) and bet on how long it would take to get back to our respective vehicles. It was all down hill now! Well, we beat the devil twice that day. . .going and coming, but I sure felt like the devil the next day. Sunday, 10 a.m., Piney River Ranger Station, Shenandoah National Park, Rappahannock County, Virginia. I had left home in the rain, drove all the way there in the rain, and it was still raining when I got there. Foggy? Well, you could barely see your hand in front of your face (exaggeration), although it was quite gloomy. I put on my rain coat, gum boots, checked my bag to see if I had all the necessaries, leaned my walking stick against the car and waited to see what other “nut” would show up. I really wasn’t going to tell anyone Pd gone on this hike or even showed up if Pd been the only one. But. . .guess what? There waiting on me was Charlie Dwyer from Woodbridge, Prince William County, Virginia and his son, Buck, also from Woodbridge. We made our trip down to the ' Dwyer cemetery in good time and to my amazement discovered this was Charlie’s first trip. Herein lies his great-grandparents and his greatgreat-grandparents and other relatives. Again, we took nourishment among the dead (sounds like the , makings for a horror film). We tredged back to the Ranger Station, no one being left behind. However, sometimes Buck got ahead of us and as the fog was so heavy we thought he was already at the car. Charlie and I would catch up and we went on like that the rest of the way. Hope to see more of you next year! Seaman Butler deployed Navy Seaman Mark R. Butler, son of Douglas M. and Winifred P.
