Miller and Robb willing to adjust district libes^ By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer . When State Sen. Kevin Miller, who represents most of Rappahannock in the 26th Senate District, came to Rappahannock last Wednesday, Ed Allen representing Ed Robth the senator who Represents Stonewall-Haw— thorn District in the 25th Senate District,^ came too. They agreed that Rappahannock County could be put entirely into Sen. Miller’s District if the people represented by Sen. Robb want that. At the Board of Supervisors meeting earlier this month County Administrator John McCarthy said an amendment to the redistricting done two years ago will be presented in this session of the General Assembly. Mr. McCarthy said the amendment would bring the lines between the districts into agreement with the lines that the county adopted when it redistricted. This would mean that the current lines for Stonewall-Hawthorn District would be used instead of those drawn following the 1980 Census. w Sen. Miller pointed out that his district is over the recomrrtended number of people while Sen. Robb’s district is under, but he said if the whole county were put in his district it would not make enough difference to make either district greater than the variation allowed. He said people of Rappahannock should let him and Sen. Robb know if they would prefer the whole county to be in one senate district. The county has never been split between two districts in the State Senate or House of Delegates before 1991, when it was split in the Senate but not the House. Mr. McCarthy said he thought the county would prefer to be in one senate district. Sen. Miller and Mr. Allen said they had come to hear from citizens about their concerns before the start of the legislative session this week. Representatives from the library and the extension service let them know they want funds restored to at least 1992 levels. See Miller, Page A-8 Supervisors to get conditional letter By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer After lengthy discussion the School Board decided unanimously Tuesday night to send a letter to the Board of Supervisors backing a middle school if a series of conditions can be met. If these conditions cannot be met, the board wants the supervisors to'agree to an addition for the elementary school. The letter was not in its final form, and School Superintendent David Gangel will seek approval of the letter in its final form from each School Board member before sending it to the Board of Supervisors. In order to save costs the board agreed to scale back the size of the middle school from 500 students1 to 400 students, but to design a school that can be expanded to hold 800 students. Also the board agreed that the school will not increase the number of administrators employed by the school system. The elementary school currently has a principal and assistant principal. Dr. Gangel said there would be a principal at the elementary school and at the middle school, but no assistant principals. Dr. Gangel said that would save nearly $1 million in building and staffing costs. “ If the supervisors agree to the. middle school, the School Board wants them to buy land and agree to hire an architect by July, 1993, and. agree to use the Virginia Public School Authority to sell bonds. That See Schools, Page A-6 Money problems still haunt park By Ml SEAN KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer ELKTON — What happened to this year’s budget is going to happen again next fall. That’s the message from the Shenandoah National Park. Bill Wade, superintendent of Shenandoah National Park, delivered that warning here last Thursday night at a meeting with an informal group of officials and citizens from the counties that surround the park. Moderated by David Jones of the Madison County Board of Supervisors, the meeting was held on the stage of the Elkton Middle School. (The park’s budget shortfall) “is not unique to this fiscal year. I think we will be faced with this for the next few years to come,” Wade said. He admitted he does not yet have his final budget for this fiscal year from the National Park Service. “We will have about $250,000 less than last year,” he said. “With dedicated funding and fixed costs going up the rest of the money — the discretionary area of the budget — will b^ not much more than one half of last year’s,” he said. Wade also pointed out that the National Park Service (NPS) is part of the Department of Interior and that budget is being squeezed by Congress every year. “I do not think the fiscal situation is going to get any better any time soon,” he added. Wade then turned to his other problem: “Do the decisions (on how to cut the park’s budget) continue to be made based on short term local interests or on the other interests of Rappahannock Newt Staff Photo-Sharon Kilpatrick Sen. Kevin Miller and Ed Allen (standing in for Sen. Ed. Robb) listen as county residents plead for funds for libraries and the Extension Service during a pre-Assembly visit to the courthouse. a I the rest of the nation? he asked. Wade urged the restive crowd to understand that the NPS has a mandate “to protect the resources for future generations and make them, available to visitors. Referring to the demand from surrounding communities that portions of the Skyline Drive not be closed from December through May, Wade said, “when managemenmt favors short term local interests rather than long term national interests, then there is some danger to the parks.” “We may have to consider in the future short term closing or whatever to maintain the long term interests for the National Park Service. If we continue to make decisions based on the short term (three to five year basis) we are not doing our grandchildren a favor at all,” he said. See Park, Page A-8 Walters sentenced forescape By M. SEAN KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* SUIT Writer While the Grand Jury heard evidence against four men Monday morning, Judge Shore Robertson cleared several pending criminal cases off the docket, including James P. Walters. He was before the judge to be sentenced following conviction on two charges of breaking and entering, one charge of grand larceny, one charge of petit larceny and one charge of escape. Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke pointed out to Judge Robertson that Walters was awaiting sentencing when he escaped. “We ask that he receive more than the minimum sentence on escape and that he be sentenced according to the jury verdicts,” he said. Speaking in his own behalf, Walters insisted he was not guilty of these particular crimes. “Your honor, I have always made mistakes. No one is perfect. I have always admitted the things I have done wrong,” he said. “I do not know what got set in the minds of the jurors, but if I had done those things I would have pleaded guilty and saved the court the time and frustration. I would have pleaded guilty and taken my time. ' “I guess I will have to do my time. I admit to my escape. As the court knows I have drug problems. I was not rich enough to turn myself in to a drug program. “But what I am here for today I did not do and the good Lord knows I did not do. I can take the time for the things I have done, but it is hard to take the time for something you know you have not done. See Court, Page A-2

Wood began his fund-raising for the 1993 election with a reception at Oasis Vineyards Friday evening, Jan. 8: More than 135 people from the neighboring counties braved the rain and threatening forecast to join the delegate at Dirgham and Corinne Salahi’s Vineyard in Hume. Speaking to the crowd, Delegate Wood thanked the hosts and the many sponsors of the event and said, “We will be very busy this year, doing eight weeks of work in a sixweek session, but I enjoy being your delegate and thank you for allowing me to represent you.” Discussion during the evening revolved around specific legislation concerns, and the promising possibility of a stop in Warrenton by President-elect Clinton.

I hope you take some mercy on me,” he said. Following the jury’s recommendations, the judge sentenced Walters to three years for each conviction of breaking and entering, two years for the grand larceny, 12 months and a $1,000 fine for the petit larceny, and two years for the escape. Judge Robertson ordered the sentences for the B&E’s and the larcenys to be served concurrently, but the escape sentence to be served consecutively. He also ordered the fine suspended upon payment of court costs within one year of his release. *> As a result Walters is facing a total of five years in prison, plus whatever additional time he is sentenced to for probation violations in this and other courts. Vicky Blaylock Taylor Vina, 29, of Stephens City came before Judge Robertson for violating probation. She had been found guilty of shoplifting twice in Winchester and once in Frederick County last year while free on probation from a 1989 conviction for check fraud. Luke told the judge “a step by step approach with this lade has not worked. She has been through CDI (Community Diversion Incentive program) and out on probation.” The judge ordered her to serve the balance of her five-year sentence and gave her seven days to deal with her three small children. Robert Lee Hall, 38, of Tampa, Fla., came before the judge on a bond hearing. He has been charged with sexual battery, rape and attempted rape of a 16 year old girl in August, 1991. After listening to testimony from Hall and his wife, Judy, Judge Robertson set bond at $5,000 cash on each charge. The Grand Jury returned to the courtroom before noon and its foreman Randall Updike handed to the clerk eight indictments against four persons. Raymond Ralls, Sr., 72, of Sperryville was indicted for abduction and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. County animal warden Johnny Ray Pullen has charged Mr. Ralls held him at gunpoint on Nov. 1,1992. Romeo Wilmer Ferguson, ,35, of Jeffersonton w’as indicted for making a false statement on Virginia Firearms Application. Edward Curetis Lambert, 21, of Elkwood was indicted on four charges stemming from an incident near Peola Mills last October. He has been charged with assault, attempted abduction, attempted robbery and tampering with a motor vehicle. James Franklin Butler was indicted by the jury for receiving stolen property belonging to David and Helen Smith, while knowing the property was stolen. Last Thursday in circuit court a jury found Loretta Zimmerman, 50, guilty of shoplifting, a third offense. She w'as accused of stealing a pair of boots from the Farmers’ Co-op.

Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Jon Butler drives around a Strasburg player during the Panthers last home game. JVsguad wins close game Rebound woes sink varsity By M. SEAN KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Rebounds, especially offensive rebounds, are a critical part of the game of basketball. That lesson was hammered home last Friday night when the Rappahannock Panthers hosted the Strasburg Rams. The jayvee squad picked up the tempo in the closing minutes, caused turnovers, hustled for rebounds and came from behind to win the game, 55-52. It was a good exhibition of desire, drive and teamwork on the part of the young Panther team. ' It was obvious from the start of the varsity game that the Rappahannock squad would sorely miss the leadership of senior guard Kevin Joliffe, who has been out sick for more than a week. In the end, however, what mattered was offensive rebounds. “They got them and we r>V didn’t,” said Rappahannock coach Gary Leake. With two and a half minutes left in the third quarter, the Panthers had cut the Rams six point lead to two when Shane Lambert sank a layup to make the score 37-39. When the quarter ended the Rams had regained their six point lead. Again in the fourth quarter the Panthers cut the lead to three points when senior Michael Williams banked one home off the glass to make the score 45-48. Then Strasburg took control of the offensive rebounds and scored the next eight points on putbacks from under the basket to make the scqre 45-56 with less than four minutes to go. “When cut their lead to three points there in the fourth quarter I thought we had a legitimate chance to pull the game out. But three times down the court we could not limit them to one shot. They simply outhustled us on the boards,” Coach Leake said after the game. “Two bright spots.in the game were Ray Atkins and J.C. Welch,” Coach Leake added. “They both played their best games of the season,” he added. For Rappahannock Jason Settle led all scorers with 16, including four for four shooting from the foul line. Also scoring in double figures were Williams with 15 points and Welch with 10. The Panthers will host Manassas Park this Friday night and Brentsville on Saturday. The Saturday game is a makeup for the home opener that was postponed because of bad weather.

The varsity record is now six wins to three losses (3 and 1 in the district), and the JV record is four wins and two losses (also 3 and 1 in the district). \ The JV got off to a fast start Monday night winning the first game by a score of 15 to 2. The second game was a different story. After getting a 9 to 0 advantage, the team saw the lead whittled away until the teams were tied at 10 each. The Rappahannock team went up again only to see the score tied again : at 14. The Panthers finally won two more points and a 16 to 14 victory. The varsity squad also ran up early leads only to struggle to hang on to the victory. After gaining an 8 to 3 advantage the serve changed hands six times in a row with neither team able to score points off serves. The final score of the first game was a Panther victory 15 to 11, The second game was not as close, and the varisty won that one 15 to 8. The teams will travel to Manassas Park Thursday and return home to face Central of Woodstock next Thursday.

The Audi! Bureau WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 13, 1993 Talk now or cry later The Virginia General Assembly opens the 1993 session this week. The odd-year sessions are “short” in time but not in work load. Our representatives in Richmond will try to consider nearly 2,000 bills during the next four weekg^ • Fortunately most of these bills will die a quiet death in committee; only a few will face hard-fought debate on the floors of the House and Senate. We can affect the final votes, but only if we take the time to contact our representatives and let them know our opinions. Governor Wilder plans to introduce legislation to restrict the sales of handguns to one per month for Virginia residents. Should the Assembly go along? What about changing the residence requirements fora driver’s license to make it more difficult to use a fraudulent license to purchase guns? Rappahannock County now has an agricultural extension agent who really understands direct marketing. His knowledge and skills are sorely needed here as local farmers ' change their practices to meet the demands of consumers. If . the General Assembly doesn’t add about $3.4 million to the Extension Service’s budget, his position, among others, will be cut. His job is guaranteed only through June 30. We will be forced to share an extension agent with a neighboring county if Wilder’s ax stays buried in the service’s budget. If we want to keep him we must say so. Loudly. Wilder has whittled away at the state library system as well. If funds are not restored by the General Assembly our local library will see its state contribution cut in half to about $6,000. There will, of Course, be no corresponding cutback in state mandated requirements for libraries. Members of the General Assembly have been bombarded on this issue across the state. The hue and cry should continue. If it doesn’t, lawmakers in Richmond will be tempted to cut libraries to save some other pet program. One issue affects only Rappahannock. The county is now divided between two senatorial districts. Most of the county is part of the 26th district, which is represented by Sen. Kevin G. Miller of Harrisonburg. The Stonewall-Hawthorn magisterial district, however, is part of the 25th district of Sen. Edgar S. Robb of Charlottesville. Both men are willing to have the entire county moved into Sen. Miller’s district if we so desire. Although he carried his district easily in the last election, Sen. Miller did not carry Rappahannock County. Since then he has made several visits to the county and seems much more willing to listen to our concerns. The county is probably better served if all its voters are in the same senatorial district. For that to happen the residents of StonewallHawthorn District must let Sen. Robb know. Another hot issue before the Assembly this year will be restrictions on abortion. Should parents be notified before a minor child obtains an abortion? What other restrictions, if any, do you support? ; These men and women in the General Assembly can not represent us unless we take the time to tell them'what we think.

This is the way it should look. The Writer's Art Three rules of good writing c By JAMES J. KILPATRICK Universal Press Syndicate The first rule of good writing, to vhich all other rules are subordilate, is this: Pay attention! The secrnd rule , is: Learn, from your gnorance! The third is: When in ioubt, ask! Well, guess v^ho grossly violated Rule No. 1 last month? Who do you suppose wrote a column in which he referred to Eisenhower’s famous remark about Justice William Brennan: “worst damn mistake I ever made.” The quotation was accurate, but Eisenhower wasn’t talking about Bill Brennan. He was talking about his nomination of Chief Justice Earl Warren. The sad thing is that I knew the Avoiding combat I have been carrying a lot of guilt around lately. It was all brought about by the recent presidential campaign. , I had previously felt I had rid myself of perpetual guilt by going broke several years ago. Forced back upon myself, I had sought counseling as part of my poverty recovery. After relating my guilt to the counselor, and having paid a substantial fee, I was assured that I was a good and decent person. I was not convinced at first but she (the Counselor) explained how' much money phase if would cost. I then and there became a believer in my goodness and my sanity. In short, I did not have the money. This new onslaught of guilt was that I related to Presidentelect Clinton in his avoidance of the draft and going to Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar. Now hear this combat avoiding story. On Dec. 8, 1941, I enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserve. I was 19 years old and flunking every subject my first semester in college. It seemed to me that the war would be over before anyone would get to shoot at me. I was written up in the year book as an authenticated hero off to save the world from the facist dogs. By July the 1st of that year my enthusiasm for' combat was waning even though I was a sharpshooter and a tough Marine. The newspaper stories about Japanese killing a lot of Marines were telling on me. My daddy had some political clout back home so I suddenly felt an urge to become an Officer and a Gentleman by going to the Naval Academy at Annapolis, Md. I asked daddy to call the Senator and see about this new opportunity to serve my country. I was lucky. Orders arrived on July 8, 1942, detailing Pvt. Day to the Naval Academy Prep School in Norfolk, Virginia. Everyone else in that group went to Guadalcanal where most of them were wounded or killed. I never again failed an academic test. Many of my classmates at Navy were just like me. Other than me, the class was filled with Day ' By Day over achievers - men who already had academic degrees. We had eight All American Footballers, Notre Dame had one, but we got him the next year. . A great .number .of these people were doing what I was doing. I was not saving the world for democracy, I was saving my skin! And I would do it again. I stayed in the service untiM got through the Korean Campaign which eased my conscience. I heard a few rounds fired although they were not filled at me. Many of my classmates went on to distinguished military careers; one became President. Some may not even have had my motives. But every one of them was glad he was not on some remote Pacific Beach being exposed to enemy fire. What really inspired this confession is that I attend class functions occasionally. We had one the day after the election. * Most (probably 85 percent) of these guys are rabid republicans and they were in deep depression regarding the future of the country. They were mumbling things like: “This country is in grave danger. The Commander in Chief is a draft dodger who chose to take advantage of a Rhodes Scholarship at Oxford University than to have gone to Viet Nam." I would ask them what would they have done, but I know, because I know what they did. I would say the same*of any person out there who makes noise about the draft dodger: they would have done the same under the same circumstances. I hope that no one will attack me for this admission. I promise I will not run for any office above that of County Supervisor. -$----— crack had to do with Warren, for I had used the quotation before. Why did I foul up? I wasn’t paying attention. Another of my goofs of the year also violated Rule No. 1. A reader in Seattle asked about “one of the best” or “one of the richest.” His point was that “best” is an adjective in the superlative degree. How may we grammatically have more than one who is the best or richest? To this injury I responded by agreeing that “logically, sir, we cannot have but one that surpasses all others.” Several reproachful readers wrote in to say that I had it wrong. I did have it wrong. I should have said “can have but one” rather than “cannot have but one.” I goofed. Last spring I scoffed gently at a classified ad promoting a house for sale. The house was “sprinklered.” It was a new verb on me. I couldn’t even pronounce it. Then came a letter from John K. Vitas of Tualatin, Ore., instructing me that ‘“sprinklered’ is a common term in building construction, fire protection and insurance.” I flunked Rule No. 2 in September, when I identified Sen. John Glenn of Ohio as “the first man to orbit the Earth.” John T. Bird of Birmingham, Ala., was the first of several readers to set me right. Glenn wasn’t the first man to orbit the Earth; he was the third. Two Russian astronauts preceded him. nuie ino. 6 says, wnen in doubt, ask! In September I began a column by quoting “old Iron Pants Johnson,” a senator from California, as saying that when war comes, the first casualty is truth. The quote was right. Sen. Hiram Johnson said it in a speech on the floor jn 1917. But he wasn’t the Johnson who was nicknamed “Iron Pants” Johnson. That was Gen. Hugh Johnson, administrator of the National Recovery Administration in the 1930s. It’s embarassing to admit it, but most Rule No. 3 violations are the work of newspaper writers. We are supposed to be a tough bunch, unaf-. raid to ask questions, but often we're so afraid of looking ignorant that we keep our mouths shut. Several months ago columnist Ellen Goodman remarked upon the old political rule “that a political ticket ought to look like a Triptik.” Ms. Goodman is a fine writer, a Pulitzer > Prize winner, but she couldn’t spell ‘‘triptych” for beans. She should have asked. Fealty to Rule 3 would have saved a reporter from The Palm Beach Post last month. The reporter was writing about a local judgeship contest. An unidentified lawyer said that a Judge Wessel would never be elected. “He described Wessel as Too tonic’ with attorneys in his courtroom.” Five will get you 50 that the judge was Teutonic, not too tonic. The reporter didn’t understand the word, and didn’t want to look dumb so he didn’t ask. When in doubt, ask! And stay in doubt!

7op ofjjis class * Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Sean Kilpatrick Wayne Dodson of the Rappahannock County Sheriffs Office recently completed a six-week course at the regional Criminal Justice Academy in Fredericksburg and won the top academic award in the class. Trio of GOP rivals takes aim at Terry By Patrick Graham Rappahannock News Special Writer One has experience. One has top party support. The other has lots of money. Such are the claims to fame for the three Republicans vying for their party’s gubernatorial nomination. Apparently, the next two months will decide whether the party nod goes to Del. I. Clinton Miller, former U.S. Rep. George Allen or former business executive Earle C. Williams. » ^ “This race will be decidea by March,” said Fairfax County GOP Chairman Patrick Mullins, who is supporting Williams, a fellow North-, em Virginian. Republicans from all over the state converged on Reston last weekend to show their support for the three candidates, to trade predictions and to show the Democrats that, despite intra-party ranglings, the GOP will be prepared to battle Attorney General Mary Sue Terry, the likely Democratic candidate. The strategy for each candidate is to get as many people to the June convention in Richmond, but the winner will be the person who brings people from all over the state to vote. “These contests are hard to predict,” said former Attorney General J. Marshall Coleman, who lost to Gov. L. Douglas Wilder in 1989. “All three men are strong candidates, and they can defeat Terry.” But Republican officials and party faithful are concerned that a bruising nomination battle could weaken their candidate. Williams, who has been touted as the Ross Perot of the Virginia Republican Party, said he offers the best chance of victory. But party officials said Allen holds the lead. Allen, a former state legislator from Charlottesville before being elected to Congress, decided not to seek re-election to Congress after redistricting put him in the same district with another incumbent last year. Allen has captured the support of about 80 percent of top party officials statewide, and his party’s active right wing, GOP leaders said. , Party officials said Williams’ support is centered in Northern Virginia, while Allen’s is more widespread. Miller’s support is soft, party officials said. A state legislator for more than a decade, Miller entered the race officially Jan. 2. “Allen’s got the party leaders,” said state Del. Jay O’Brien (R-40th District). “I like George, but the question i6 winning. If we nominate Earle, I’m convinced we can beat Terry.” y Party officials said Allen has weaknesses,^ saying his pro-life stance will cost him votes when compared to the pro-choice Terry. Wilder’s pro-choice stance played a pivotal role in his victory over Coleman. E 51“* I 1111 sg*» m fg * m liili mm From the Rappahannock News back ** 30 YEARS AGO January 17,1963 Arlis E.

Daughan of the Luray architectural firm Baughan and Baukages appeared before the board to present the bids. “The good news is that we received 11 bids - the most I ever remember receiving for a job,” Daughan said. “The bad news is that all the bids were well over our projected cost of $100,000.” The low bidder was Daughan Construction Company, a firm owned by the architect’s brother in Luray. Their bid was $138,871, followed by bids of $143,771 and $146,637. The architect said that the number of bids and the range they covered indicated that the builders’ cost estimates were fair and realist. He offered the board several changes in the originalplans that would reduce the building cost. After a brief discussion of the changes, the board voted to accept the low bid.

►Schools From Page A-l will mean a referrendum will not be necessary. The letter to the supervisors also will state that the board believes keeping good teachers is more important than buildings, and the board feels it will be necessary to give teachers raises to keep good ones. The School Board does not want the county to invest in a middle school at the expense of compensating teachers. At the beginning of the discussion members Paul Nichold from Wakefield District and John Tole from Stonewall-Hawthom District supported the middle school. Members Bryant Lee from Hampton District, Frances Thornton from Piedmont District and Beverly Massie from Jackson District expressed reservations. The board members said they had not received many comments from citizens 'about the expansion alternatives. Mr. Nichols and Dr. Tole $aid the few people they had talked to supported the middle school. Dr. Tole added that he thought building a middle school would save money in the long run because building one in 10 years would cost twice as much. Mr. Lee said, “The biggest concern I get is the taxes. A lot feel ihey are already too high. They don’t want to see them jump too much.” He estimated building a middle school would add 11 cents to the tax rate. Mrs. Thornton said most of the people she had talked to preferred the additions. She expressed concern about the cost of acquiring the land.” Mrs. Massie said, “I had to solicit input. I thought people would call, and it was not that way.” She said the people she talked to split between those who were primarily concerned with what is “educatiohally best” and those most concerned with the cost. Mrs. Massie said some people don’t expect much growth in the county. She said that people expect an increase in gasoline taxes and think people may move back closer to their jobs to save on the cost of commuting. She said her main concern was time. She said she thought a middle school would not be approved without a referrendum, and it would take four years *to get the school built. “I’m mostly concerned with how the teachers are going to teach the year after next when push comes to shove,” she said. Dr. Tole said, “I think the publicity given the topic has been confusing, a mix of figures on what the county can or cannot afford. This board needs to make a decision on what is best educationally and present it to the supervisors and have them react rather than speculating about what ifs.” “What’s best educationally is we need space now,” Mrs. Massie said. Mr. Lee and Mrs. Thornton also agreed that it would be very difficult, if not impossible,~to have a middle school in place for the 1994-95 School year. “We talk about what’s educationally best for the studeiits,” Mrs. Massie said. “What’s most important is to have good teachers, the best teachers we can. We’ve gone through hard economic times. This year we couldn’t even give a step increase. I’ve seen it happen; the supervisors cut the budget, and the only place We can cut is salaries. We can’t get so grand we’re not going to be able to pay the most important person in the education of the child. The best educational decision can’t just focus on buildings.” Dr. Gangel said he agreed with most of the remarks that had been made. “I personally feel the guilding perspective for our decision should be what’s best educationally, and*let the Board of Supervisors decide what’s financially feasible,” he said. “In the end the supervisors have the responsibility to make that decision.” He suggested sending a letter with the conditions listed. “Additions are add ons,” he said. “They will be taxing our facilities. If that’s what we can afford, I’m committed to it.” He also supported scaling back to a 400-student middle school and commiting not to add to the number of administrators. After a great deal more discussion the board agreed to support the letter if it also spelled out concerns about salaries. “Send the letter,” Mr. Nichols said. “They will understand we will take whichever we can afford considering we need salary increases for the staff... If we can’t afford the middle school with salary increases, we have an alternative.” In other action the School Board: • Learned that there has been a problem of cars passing school buses when they are stopped with their lights flashing to let off or take on students. There have been three cases in the past three weeks. Hjdden away_ but not forgotten Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Blanketed in snow Mt.

Con victions.refunds sought Social Security offices must fight fraud One of the main missions of the Social Security Administration is to pay the right benefit check in the right amount to the right persoij kt the right time. "** Social Security accomplished this mission, but their efforts are occasionally hindered when dishonest people attempt to commit fraud. In Fiscal Year 1991 there were 1,066 convictions of Social Security fraud, said Bruce Hundley, Social Security manager in Culpeper. These convictions ranged from individuals attempting to collect the Social Security checks of beneficiaries who had died to persons who file false claims for Social Security benefits. Acts of fraud affect each Social Security program differently. Hundley provided the following examples: The Disability Insurance Program and the Retirement and Survivors Insurance Program are Call now! There are only 299,999 pairs of starglasses left!

For example, a Wisconsin man was investigated for concealing his work earnings so he could illegally collect disability payments. Further investigation showed that the man worked under his son’s Social Security Number and earned $20,000 in wages while receiving disability benefits. After conviction for concealment, he was sentenced to 12months in prison and ordered to pay $72,462 in restitution. The Supplemental Security Income Program is defrauded by persons who file false claims, conceal assets or resources, or make false statements and conceal events affecting entitlement. A North Carolina man was investigated for concealing his mother’s death and forging her signature on her SSI benefit checks. A furniture store reported that someone attempted to cash an SSI check issued to a woman who they knew had died.

Social Security Number (SSN), fraud occurs when individuals submit false applications for SNNs file,false benefit claims, misuse SSNs to conceal earnings affecting entitlement, or use SSNs to establish false identities. Four members of a Massachusetts family were investigated for misusing SNNs and filing fraudulent benefit claims. They collected more than $100,000 in unemployment benefits. Investigations showed that they also collected $58,000 in SSI benefits. They pled guilty to charges of SSN misuse, mail fraud, and SSI fraud. Research funding is high at Tech j BLACKSBURG - Virginia Tech is still in the top 50 among all universities and colleges in the na-r tion in research expenditures during, fiscal year 1991, according to an an-, nual report of the National Science Foundation. Total research and development expenditures climbed from $121.4 million in 1990 to $125.3 million in 1991. However, the university dropped from 42nd to 44th in the nation, despite increasing from 26th to 19th in funding from private industry, and remaining 67th in funding from federal sources. “The drop in standing despite the increase of $3.6 million in funding for research reflects the competition, that exists for this form of support; as other funding, such as the state’s resources, decline,” said Tom Hurd,, director of sponsored programs at Virginia Tech. The only other Virginia universities in the top 100 are the University of Virginia, 59th with $96.7 million in research funding from all sources, and Virginia Commonwealth University, 94th with $65.6 million.; U.Va. was 54th last year with $96.8 million, and VCU was 90th with $62.7 million. “The role of research universities to Virginia’s economy and business competitiveness is substantial. lit addition to pushing on the frontiera of discovery, Virginia’s three leading research universities added alw most $300 million to that state’s economy,” said James D. McComas, president. Among public universities and> colleges, Virginia Tech is 30th/ U.Va. 39th, and VCU 65th. ; Virginia Tech ranked 19th in in-; dustry-funded research with $12.4 million, up from 26th in 1990 with almost $11.4 million.

Statistical picture of county Rappahannock real estate continues to climb in price ' By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New« Staff Writer ' Rappahannock has the most expensive real estate in the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District (PD-9), according to information gathered by the Piedmont and Fauquier Board of Realtors and distributed by the planning district. The average price of residential real estate sold in 1991 was $201,700, more than double the 1988 average of just under $100,000. Next highest was Fauquier at $183,000 up from $133,000 in 1988. The average for Culpeper was $118,700, for Madison $88,900 and for Orange $103,700. ( Other data provided by PD-9 $hows information on housing gathered during the 1990 Census. ; According to this information the county has 2,964 housing units and <!,496 households. This leaves nearly 16 percent of the housing units unoccupied. That figure is higher in this county than others in the planning district, and may reflect the fairly large number of weekend homes in the county. More than 90 percent of the housing units in Culpeper, Fauquier and Madison counties have households. Orange County is most like Rappahannock in this respect. Nearly 88 percent of the housing Jinits hold households. ! Rappahannock has the fewest people per household: 2.65. This compares to 2.79 in Culpeper, 2.89 in Fauquier, 2.83 in Madison, and 2.67 in Orange. Owners occupy most of the housing units in the county. This is true of all the counties in the planning district. However, 27.8 percent of the households are renters, lower than Culpeper’s 32.7 percent, but higher than Fauquier at 26.7 percent, Orange at 23.7 percent or Madison at 22.9 percent. The Census also provided information on sources of water and methods of sewage disposal for housing units. Only 4.9 percent of Rappahannock houses are served by public or private water systems, primarily the water system serving Washington. A somewhat higher 5.9 percent are on public sewer: those served by Water sources 60 0 JJ Housing units ■ Systems □ Drilled Wells □ Dug Wells □ Other Sewage disposal io< 81 21 the Sperryville sewer plant. Individual drilled wells serve 71.6 percent of Rappahannock households, the highest percentage in the planning district. Another 8.6 percent are served by dug wells, and 14.9 percent have another water source, presumably springs. Septic tanks or cesspools serve 85.6 percent of Rappahannock housing units, while 8.5 percent have “other,” presumably outhouses. Orange County has the highest percentage of its housing served by public water and sewer systems. Madison is closest to Rappahannock in the small percentage on such systems. The census also produced data on housing conditions. In Rappahannock County 8.5 percent of the houses lack complete plumbing. This compares with 4.1 percent in Culpeper, two percent in Fauquier, 8.6 percent in Madison, and 2.7 percent in Orange. In the county 4.4 percent of the housing units lack complete kitchens. The figure is identical in Madison. For Fauquier and Orange counties this figure is 1.6 percent and 2.8 percent in Culpeper. Hudson chairs ethics panel Robert C.

Let it snow This house sits nestled away on the Poor Farm Road overlooking the F. T. Valley. From Page A-l ►Park Responding to questions, Wade said that the Matthew’s Arm Campground, which will be closed all year to save money, represents about 23 percent of the camping spaces at the park. Another cost-cutting measure the park will take this summer, Wade said, is to give the administrative load for Big Meadows campground over to the consessionaire. “He has raised the camping fee $2 a night per space to cover the added cost,” he said. A major item on the agenda was a discussion of the ongoing Related Land Study. This is a resource study of the land adjoining the park and near it on both sides of the mountain. The study has been completed for Rockingham and Albemarle counties and the park is planning two open houses, one in Rockingham County on Feb. 6 and the other in Crozet on Feb. 13, to display the maps and solicit comments. The purpose is to identify those lands that might be suitable for inclusion in the park and those that are not suitable because of development. “We are dealing with dynamic data. We intended all along to make this an ongoing project subject to change. Nothing will be written in stone,"Wade said. Sandy Rives, the park’s public information officer, told the crowd that the maps being developed show the resources in the area, including soil types and related data. “It is the kind of data counties use when they are working on comprehensive plans,” he said. “These are not about actions that the park service may . - * f: \ | PONTIAC | PONTIAC | GRAND AM SE CPE . #33254 MONTHLY PAYMENT GRAND PRIX LE SEDAN #33415 *274 MONTHLY PAYMENT' BONNEVILLE SE SEDAN #33151 $336 MONTHLY PAYMENT TRANS SPORT SE MONTHLY PAYMENT #33339 3 IN STOCK ABS, AC, power locks, tilt, cassette 3 TO CHOOSE ABS, sport pkg, full power equipment KEYLESS ENTRY & MORE Air Bag, ABS, full power equipment LOADED! 3800 V6, ABS, Dual AC ■ BOdsmoDiie The powc i Or inteu.igent Engineering ACHIEVA S SEDAN #33021 MONTHLY PAYMENT 234 ACHIEVA S CPE #33260 MONTRfc,Y PAYMENT CIERA S SEDAN #33034 MONTHLY PAYMENT • *9% ir;uvv EIGHTY-EIGHT SEDAN #33248 *342 MONTHLY PAYMENT 2 AVAILABLE ABS, AC, auto, PL, cast wheels, cass 2 TO CHOOSE V6, ABS, AC, power windows & more 6 TO CHOOSE Air Bag, V6, auto O/D, tilt, cass, PL 5 TO CHOOSE Air Bag, ABS, all power equip, loaded SONOMA P/U $ 191 #33507 MONTHLY PAYMENT f’r=\% SIERRA SPECIAL P/U #33264 MONTHLY PAYMENT .

I ■ The criteria used to measure land are the same ones used when the park was created, he said. He added that the park does not always agree to accept parcels of land that are offered to the park. , * Wade offered as an example one parcel south of Criglersville that lies between the park and a Wildlife Management Area. Although hg agreed to accept the parcel if offered to the park, Wade suggested to the conservation groupworking on the deal that the parcel was more suitable for inclusion in the WMA. ' * These areas are managed by the State’s Game and Fisheries Commission for public hunting. Wade favors such areas on the edges of the park to help control the deer and bear herds. * < “I can tell you that legitimate hunting seasons are an appropriate way and desireable way to help corvtrol populations of bear and deer,” he said. * Responding to a question about bears, Wade said the park’s heap herd is stable at about 600. Although gypsy moths have severely reduced the acorn crop in certain areas oj the park, the bears seem to be coping rather than leaving the park for local apple orchids,he said.

Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Sean Kilpatrick sparkling coat on every branch. Williams highlights experience By Patrick Graham Rappahannock Neva Special Writer Businessman Earle C. Williams, one of . three candidates seeking the Republican nomination for governor, sets himself apart from rivals by emphasizing that he has the business experience to encourage economic growth. In an interview with editors of the Times newspapers last Friday, Williams criticized the administration of Gov. L. Douglas Wilder for failing to promote economic development throughout the state. “We’ve been soft-pickings for everyone,” said Williams, referring to the flight of , businesses from Virginia to other states. / “This governor doesn’t have a clue about business. It’s madness.” Williams linked Attorney General Mary Sue Terry, the likely Democratic gubernatorial candidate, to the Wilder administration and portrayed Wilder and his economic advisers as inept and passive about recruiting and keeping businesses in Virginia. The state Economic Development Authority, Williams said, focuses more on tourism than on economic development. “You can’t build an economy on tourism,” he said. “That’s third world.” He cited, for example, the experience of a European pharmaceutical firm that was prepared to build a plant in Virginia but chose to move to South Carolina after a meeting with Wilder. According to Williams, Wilder kept the company’s chief executive waiting for 55 minutes and arrived for the meeting unaware of the nature of the ven wire. Williams extended his criticism to Terry, and to his two GOP challengers, former U.S. Rep. George Allen Jr., and state Del. I. Clinton Miller (R-26th District). Terry “doesn’t have a clue about what to do with the economy,” Williams said, saying Terry and his two GOP opponents are three ambitious lawyers “who have never done anything but run for office.” The former chairman of BDM International of McLean, a company that specialized in contract work for the federal government, Williams makes remarks that underscore the image he is attempting to present to voters: a successful businessman and civic activist who ’ - has never held public office, like Ross Perot, intending to run the government like a busi• ness. “I’ve met a payroll and paid salaries. I’ve ; built a company and I brought companies into ’ • Virginia,” Williams said. “I don’t reject the parallels (comparing Williams) with Perot. I reject the non-parallels. I’m not getting out of the race.” As governor, he said, he would devote 1 “the appropriate amount of time” to recruiting businesses and developing the state’s r economy while giving equal attention to education and transportation matters. “Businesses know what is wrong. But tHey feel no one will listen to them,” he said. Williams questioned the current value of the Center for Innovative Technology in Herndon with Wilder’s political appointees to the CIT board of directors. See Williams, Page B-5 Diplomat gives personal view of Russia By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Jon Purnell Has lived through some interesting times as a representative from the U.S. State Department to the Soviet Union and Russia, and he shared his impressions with a full crowd at the library Friday night. Mr. Pumell was in the U.S.S.R. from 1982 to 1984 stationed in Moscow and from 1989 to 1992 in St Petersburg, which was still called Leningrad when he arrived. He showed slides from both tours, saying they conveyed a sense of what has been happening for the past seven years. Early slides showed banners honoring Lenin and Leonid Breznev. Of Brezhnev he said, “This individual personified stagnation. He represented the dead end of the Soviet system.” Other slides showed a Russian village he visited this past summer. He said dur ing his earlier tour foreigners would not have been allowed to visit such a village. The Soviet authorities considered such a village “too primitive to let a westerner visit,” he said. Other slides showed meat being deliv- • ered to a store in the same building as his apartment. A side of beef was dropped from an unrefrigerated truck onto the parking lot outside the store. Other slides showed Russians selling whatever they could on the open market. Mr. Purnell said such pictures are even more typical now than before. “Things have not improved for the Russian peasantry,” he said. ‘They are even tougher now than before.” Mr. Purnell said Michael Gorbachov “will go down in history as a truly great reformer. Re dismantled the system of political crimes and labor camps. He instituted basic human freedoms” of speach and reli gion. He brought in the secret ballot and multiple candidates. He also allowed private labor. “It’s fair to say that Gorbachov and the people around him Were not naive,” he continued. “It had become clear to the Russian leadership that without renewing society, without tapping into individual initiative the Soviet Union would become a third-rate, if not fifth-rate, country.” He said Gorbachov’s mistake was believing “the soviet communist system could be salvaged...Gorbachov believed that once you got the people engaged, the system would function. What happened is that once they got the people engaged, they discovered the people hated the system. As a whole the people rushed to vote out the old guard...In the republics this took the form in independence movements.” He said soviet rulers decided in 1990 that things had gone too far and tried to crack down on the Baltics. “The only rea- r son they failed is they came to appoint beyond which they were not prepared to go,” he said. “They were not prepared to kill more than a handful of people. Thousands set up a 24-hour vigil so the govemmemts could not be taken without a tremendous loss of life.” Mr. Purnell said the process became ireversible. “Gorbachov became a man whose time had passed,” he said. At the time when Gorbachov was welcomed as a hero in the United States “in St Petersburg the Russians saw that on Soviet TV and turned it off. ‘Don’t Americans understand this man is holding us back?’ they asked.” . In response to dozens of questions, Mr. Purnell said he would not recommend something like a Marshall Plan for the Russia. Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Sharon Kilpatrick State Senator Kevin Miller heads for Richmond with one issue already settled: he and his wife will support Jack Kemp for President when the campaign battles begin in 1996. Assembly is ready for budget battle By Patrick Graham Rappahannock News Special Writer The 1993 Virginia General Assembly session opens today, with lawmakers poised to battle each other and Gov. L. Douglas Wilder over gun control, abortion, highway funding and taxes. N. Facing the 140 lawmakers, will be Wilder’s proposals to raise state employee salaries, to require cleanerrunning cars in Northern Virginia and to close loopholes in theWyte’s conflict-of-interest laws. ''O' With members of the House of Delegates facing re-election and Wilder facing retirement, delegates and the governor said they hope any fights during the 45-day session will be rather bloodless. “I don’t think you will see any major initiatives from the legislature,” said Del. Vince Callahan (R34th District), the senior Republican from Northern Virginia. “A lot will be put on hold.” In contrast with previous sessions, the lawmakers face a rebounding economy and a slowly ebbing fiscal crisis. During the last three years, lawmakers and Wilder together have confronted a $2 billion budget shortfall without raising taxes. They have made up the difference with spending cuts, tuition hikes and raids on government trust funds. ' ‘The good news is that Virginia seems to be improving and tax revenues are up over last year,” said Sen. Charles L. Waddell (D-33rd District). The most controversial issue this session will be Wilder’s proposal to limit gun purchases to one a month. The National Rifle Association and other critics have pledged stiff and vocal opposition to the idea, arguing that it won’t keep guns out of the hands of criminals and will only hurt gun dealers. “The governor has a full-court press on this as a panacea for the whole problem," said Callahan. Lawmakers do not expect Wilder’s proposal to pass, given the gun •lobby’s well-organized opposition. Gun-control supporters, who are seen as poorly organized compared to the gun lobby, are planning to argue that Virginia’s reputation as a gunrunning state is driving or keeping business away. “We need to get the state Chamber of Commerce and businesses behind the gun control effort,” said Del. Kenneth R. Plum (D-36th District). Lawmakers also anticipate that another Wilder proposal—imposing tough car emission standards on Northern Virginia motorists—will not pass. Critics contend that it would be best to coordinate tougher emissions standards with other states. In a slap at Wilder, legislators will examine the Virginia Retirement System (VRS), which'has been the focus of a heated disagreement ^ between Wilder and Attorney General Mary Sue Terry. Some lawmakers want to remove the $14 billion system from government control. Others want to get the system out of , the real estate business in a reaction to Wilder’s ill-fated attempt to build the Washington Redskins stadium on VRS-owned property in Alexandria. On social issues, a bill requiring parents to be notified when an unmarried child seeks an abortion-^ which Wilder vetoed last year—will come up again and is expected to pass. Some lawmakers said Wilder’s plan to tighten conflict-of-interest laws and limit campaign contributions in statewide races will pass. Repeating last year’s agenda, Northern Virginia lawmakers will propose a $181 million transportation bond package and will push to get $20 million in real estate filing fees. They will also ask permission to impose an Additional 15-cent cigarette tax and 5 percent hotel tax.

(Passes for the service available 9 a.m, Thursday). No matter what our political affiliation may be, we should pray for the new administration that God will give them wisdom to lead our nation. Personally, I believe it will take a return to Biblical principles upon which this nation was founded to turn us around. I love American History and I just reviewed the videos by historian David Barton on “Education and the Founding Fathers” and “Our Godly Heritage.” The Founding Fathers were prolific writers. Some excellent resources are “Madison’s Notes of the Constitutional Convention” the “Northwest Ordinance” (requirements for a territory to become a state) and the “Federalist Papers.” It was clear “religion” meant “denomination.” They did not want the government to establish one denomination over another. The Bible was the primary text book in schools for ma^y, njany years. The Founding Fathers based the establishment of three branches of government on Isaiah 33:22. Concerned Women for American V (CWA) invites the public to join them for a trip to the state capitol on Jan. 18. (CWA has approximately 600,000 members.)

Resolutions need not fail The New Year’s resolution has become an American tradition for promises of improving lifestyles at the end of the holiday season. One of the most popular is the New Year’s diet. Unfortunately, many resolutions are broken in the first weeks of the new year. And people who try “crash dieting” are often discouraged when their efforts don’t last or don’t result in significant weight loss. But don’t give up hope. Excess weight can be lost and kept off by following a regular American Heart Association eating plan pf reduced calories, and by following an exer„ cise plan that includes a 30-minute aerobic workout at leat three times per week. The American Heart Association says being overweight can lead to high blood pressure, a major risk factor in the development of diseases of the heart and blood vessels. In addition, overweight individuals tend to have increased levels of cholesterol in the blood, "which is another risk factor for heart disease. So your New Year’s resolution to take off weight and keep it off will not only help you look great, it can help you live a healthier life. Consult your physician before starting any weight reduction or exercise regime. He or she canjylp you determine the amount of \4R;ht you should lose and any special considerations you need to keep in mind. Once you have established your best weight, how do you get there? Determine what, other ^fan hunger, makes you eat. Do you eat^ompulsively to relieve anxiety or depression? Try keeping a written record of what and when you eat, to identify your eating habits. Then avoid those situations when possible. Talk to your family,. Let them know you want to lose weight and that you need their support. Encoifrage them to eat the same foods you da After all, you’ll be eating healthful foods, but in smaller quantities. Your spouse and children can benefit from your new eating habits as well. Next, decide the number of calories you will need per day to lose one to two pound per week. That’s a safe number. Most women can accomplish that by consuming 1,2001,500 calories a day. Men can usually lose at the same rate by consuming 1,500-1,800 calories a day. When buying and preparing foods, remember to limit your intake of meat, seafood and poultry to no more than six ounces per day. Use chicken or turkey (without skin),or fish in most of you main meals. Choose lean cuts of meat and trim all the fat you can see. Limit your consumption* of cholesterol to no more than 300 mg. per day. If you choose to eat eggs, which is the most concentrated source of dietary cholesterol, limit them to no more than 3-4 per week. Limit your consumption of shrimp, lobster and organ meats. The AHA recommends that total fat intake be no more than 30 percent of total calories. So if you are eating 1,500 calories per day, only 450 of those calories should be in fats. To help you measure your fat consumption, remember to multiply the number of grams of fat per serving by nine. That will tell you the total .number of calories of fat. • Set realistic goals. Concentrate on each five pounds you want to lose, not on your goal. Plan your meals,.aB4L*8*grcise schedule ahead of time. That way you’ll be less likely to make up an excuse for not sticking with it. For more information on healthful eating, contact your local American Heart Assocation or look for the American Heart Association's LowFat, Low-Cholesterol Cookbook in local bookstores.

There is a great difference of opinion about the worth of a piece of art. One man thinks it the worthless scribbling of a child while another may find it to be a masterpiece. There is a similar difference from one person to another regarding personal values. One may^rize honesty above all other virtues. Another may feel that loyalty is more important. The kind of values one holds is strongly conditioned by one's upbringing. Churches and synagogues play a vital role in shaping these values for those who are fortunate enough to have been reared to attend regularly. Just as it takes education to appreciate art properly, so it takes religious education to make moral choices. Don't leave such matters to chance. Make sure youi children receive the kind of religious education of which you approve. Attend the church or synagogue of your choice this week. * Sunday Matthew 20 29-34 Monday Matthew 22:1-14 Tuesday Ephesians 5:1-20 Wednesday 1 Peter 2:18-25 Thursday Revelation 3:7-13 Friday Revelation Saturday -John 1:35-42 uopyrigni 1993.

What's for dinner? Beef in 30 minutes or less By HELEN W. SMITH “What’s for dinner?” That one question can make the most streamlined, efficient, time-managed schedule come to a grinding halt. * Let’s face it. Gone are the days when you have hours and hours to prepare the evening feast. The thing is, you probably have never lost the desire to sit down with your family at the end of the day and share a simple, homecooked meal. In fact, it seems more important than ever to people these days. Here’s help. The following recipes are from the Virginia Cattle Industry Board’s new brochure that I just received entitled “Beef, It’s What’s For Dinner in 30 Minutes or Less.” These new recipes all use beef, but not the way it used to. Beef has never been leaner or simpler to prepare, although it still tastes every bit as good as you remember. HOME ECONOMICS The recently released USD A Food Guide Pyramid recommends 23 servings of beef or another meat per day because meats are a good source of protein and iron for building strong muscles. The following recipes will help you experiment with some beef cuts you may never have tried. And they will teach you some new tricks with old favorites, too. So, enjoy. And the next time someone asks you the biggest question of the day, you’ll have the answer: Beef, It’s What’s For Dinner!

Look for windy conditions, flurries, very cold 12, 13 with fair, quite cold 14, 15. There’ll be more snow 16, 17 then rain 18, 19 and more snow 20, 31. Days should be fair, windy, cold 22-27 with rain or snow 28, 29 the month ending with fair, rather cold temps 30,31. Full moon: Known as the wolf moon according to Indian Lore, it occurs on the 7th at 7:37 a.m. Observe national holiday, in most states, Jan. 18, honoring civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. What’s in a name? Our first month of the year is named after Janus the god of Roman mythology with two faces and the guardian of portals and patron of beginnings and endings. With Inauguration Day this month it is an important opportunity" for our country to look to the future and support President Clinton in his efforts to lead our country economically, socially and morally. Twelfth night: According to an old English tradition, Christmas greens and decorations were taken down and burned on Jan. 6 or “Old Christmas” to avoid bad luck in the New Year. Actually the custom began when farmers lit bonfires on that night to, scare off witches threatening their homes and crops. Garden planning: When those new seed catalogues arrive, start making plans for this year’s garden. Try some new varieties. “Those too concerned about what tomorroiv might bring often forget the lessons learned yesterday or today's opportunities.” ►Williams From Page B-l “The board doesn’t have any business people from the technology sector,” Williams said. “It’s crazy.” Williams said one way to expand Virginia’s economy would be to reorganize state government itself. Several departments such as the Virginia Department of Transportation could be revamped, and certain state services could be contracted out to the private sector, he said. “We have to reform government,” Williams said. “We also need to make some changes in people’s perceptions that they don’t "have an interest in government.” Aside from business and the economy, Williams also fielded questions on abortion and gun control. “I’ve been concerned about abortion for years,” Williams said. “I don’t like the idea that it should be used for sex-selection and birth control,” he said, Williams said he would not support efforts to restrict abortions in the first trimester of pregnancy, but he opposes federal funding for abortions, except in cases of rape or where the life of the mother is at risk. He said he Supports parental notification, a 24-hour waiting period and informed consent. “My position puts me at odds with the take-no-prisoners”—the extremists— “on both sides of the issue,” he said. On gun control, Williams said he does not support Wilder’s proposal to limit gun purchases to one a month, calling it “unduly restricti I. I Bertines 9{ortfi Tuesday thru Thursday 3 Course Dinner s14.95 | International/Caribbean • J Cuisine ■ | South Main, Madison, Va. | I Tucs-Sat 12 Noon-9p.m. I |_703^948^DINE J ve.” “I believe in the Second Amend-, ment,” Williams said. “But (people) j don’t have the right to have armies,”/ he said. He said a compromise could include limiting gun buys to three or five a month. As an alternate way to curtail gun sales, Williams said he supports revising the way motorists get a Virginia driver’s license, the usual form of identification given to gun sellers to prove residency. Currently, a motorist does not have to show proof of residency to receive a driver’s license. Williams said he is certain he hs» ^ the best chance among Republican^ to win the the GOP gubernatorial nomination. He said Allen “peaked in November” despite receiving support from about 80 percent of the GOP leadership across the state. Williams attributed party leader support for Allen to “loyalty. ” Williams, who said he made a lot of money when BDM was sold, said he is sure he will spend $1 million of his own money on his campaign. He predicted his race will cost $10 million. He said will stick to his pledge to fund no more than 10 percent of the campaign with his own money. “I don’t have enough money to buy the election,” he said. He said he mailed 19,000 videocassette tapes of an advertisement directly to potential voters.
