Castleton Dump Cleanup Begins Criminal Probe Continues By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Jack Downey of the Environmental Protection Agency estimated the cleanup at a site where barrels were abandoned in Rappahannock County off Route 619 between Rock Mills and Laurel Mills could cost the federal government as much as $100,000. Mr. Downey was in charge of the workers at the site last week. EPA contracted with the Roy F. Westin Corp. for technical assistance and with Environmental Technology Inc. of Richmond for the labor to do further testing on materials in the barrels and to repackage the barrels in larger barrels for shipment out of state to approved disposal sites. He said the materials were separated into three categories: “flamables, corrosives, and base neutral” materials. Some of the materials in the barrels had a pH of 12, he said. That measure of acidity and alkalinity means that the material was extremely alkaline and corrosive. A pH of 7 is neutral. The corrosives were put in large plastic containers. Other materials were put in larger sound steel drums. Empty barrels were flattened and piled with other debris on plastic tarpelins for later removal. * Mr. Downey said the EPA will next seek bids from licensed haulers and disposal sites before the new barrels are removed. He said he expected the barrels and debris will be removed by the end of August. Workmen from Environmental Technology Inc. wore special protective clothing, gas masks and breathing apparatus for working at the site. Mr. Downey said the workmen are “medically monotored” to make sure they do not suffer ill effects from working with the contaminated materials.

Along with the classic and show cars it will include a model car contest, door prizes, music, bingo and raffles. The event will be held rain or shine, for details, call Scott Chamberlain, 937-4577. Carnival Next Weekend The Sperryville VFD will hold its annual carnival next week, June 2 through June 5. The carnival features a parade beginning at 7 p.m. Thursday, June 3, plus rides, amusements and food every evening. The highlight of the carnival will be the crowning of the queen at midnight Friday, June 4. The candidates are Jennifer Brown, Samantha Smoot and Shanbay Fuller, and the winner will be determined by the number of tickets sold. She will be crowned by Amy Grigsby, last year’s queen. “We hope to raise enough money to buy a rebuilt motor for our old fire wagon,” said Roy Jenkins, the company’s president. Last year, the parade attracted 75 units, and Jenkins said the volunteers hope to have an even bigger turnout this year. Taylor Resigns C. Eldon Taylor, executive director of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Community Services Board, resigned effective May 5. Taylor, who had been director of the agency which provides mental health, substance abuse and aging services to the five counties of Planning District 9 since 1990, cited political changes on the board as the reason for his resignation. The CSB’s board of directors has named an interim director, and a search for Mr. Taylor’s replacement has begun, according to a spokesman for the agency. Weekend weather The extended forecast from the National Weather Service calls for mostly sunny skies for the holiday weekend, with daytime high temperatures in the mid 80s. Cooler temperatures will arrive toward Memorial Day, with daytime highs in the high 70s. Nighttime lows will hover in the 50s during the period. Sewer Rates Will Rise Sharply Mandates, Overhead Blamed for 39% Hike By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer The budget adopted by the Water and Sewer Authority last Thursday for operating the Sperryville sewer plant will require a monthly rate of $21.50 per Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU). This represents a $6 or 39 percent increase over the current rate of$15.50per EDU. The total budget of nearly $73,100 is up 44 percent over the current budget of $50,900, but the authority has not been able to live within that budget. The authority has spent nearly $61,800 this year through April with two months yet to go on the fiscal year. In addition the authority paid a $4,000 fine to the State Water Control Board for violations at the plant last spring and summer. As a result the savings account accumulated to help pay for replacing equipment as it wears out has been reduced to less than $39,100 from a ballance of over $61,600 in the beginning of July. The WSA must hold a public hearing on the rate increase before it can take effect. The proposed budget includes $6,000 in capital expenses for the coming year. Members hope this will cover the cost of modifications at the plant to control surges and readying an extra tank to treat septage so the authority will not have to pay to have the contents of tanks on the system pumped and taken to the Remington sewage treatment plant. The budget does not cover all of that cost. Recovering the cost of the capital expense will be spread out over at least two years before the savings account can begin building again. Member Mark Bailey missed the meeting last week. The other four members were unanimous in recommending the $21.50 rate. Members also decided to send a letter to customers explaining the reasons for the rate increase. The cost for the plant operator and back up help increased in the proposed budget from a total of $18,300 to $32,600. The other category that increased sharply is plant supplies from $12,000 to $17,000. The cost of tablets for the dechlorinator accounts for most of the increase in supplies, and authority members said the increased complexity of operating a plant with dechlorination accounted for the cost of having to go from a part-time to a full-time operator. A few costs of operation will be lower next year. With plant operator Donna Chabot able to do more of the chemical tests at the plant, the cost for lab tests was reduced in the proposed budget from $2,000 to $500. Also the authority will no longer be paying to have samples shipped for testing, saving $150 in that category. Member Jimmy Swindler Jr. warned, however, that new’ SWCB rules in coming years may require the plant to remove amonia as well as chlorine from the water discharged into the Thornton River. Memorial Day Festival Promises Fun There’s something for everyone at Sperryville’s Memorial Day Festival. The “something” includes basket weaving, pizza, bluegrass music, discount shopping, craft demonstrations, festive foods, folk music, children’s games, homemade food, catalog closeouts, pony rides and more. This annual event, sponsored by more than a dozen local establishments, draws 3,000 to 5,000 people to the streets of Sperryville. “It’s a celebration of local arts 'It's a celebration of local arts and crafts, plus a smorgasbord of culinary delights.' — Jimmy Swindler II and crafts,” said Jimmy Swindler II, proprietor of the Country Manor Outlet, “plus a smorgasbord of culinary delights,” he added. r Continuous live entertainment featuring bluegrass and folk music by The Hazel River Band, Grim Pickers and Domel Pratt will be sponsored by the Faith Mountain Company. Many local civic organizations, such as fire departments will be serving food, so there should be something to eat for every stomach and palatte. The festival runs from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m: on Saturday, Sunday and Monday of Memorial Day weekend. ■"m Students Return Questions Remain By BRUCE SLOANE Rappahannock News Staff Writer “Students are resuming their normal routines at Rappahannock County Elementary School,” reported School Superintendent David M. Gangel earlier this week. Two weeks ago fumes from a cleaning fluid that workers of the John T. Morgan Roofing Company were using to clean windows sent 39 students to hospitals in Warrenton and Culpeper. The workers were cleaning up residue from a roofing project at the school. “To my knowledge, no one is hospitalized,” Dr. Gangel added. “A few children with asthma or other respiatory problems may still be under treatment, but I have no way of knowing if this is connected to the roofing incident. I’m not a doctor." Dr. Gangel said he feels that students were not unusually concerned or upset over the incident. Counselors were available at school last week to talk with any worried students, but few took advantage of this service. Identification of the specific substances contained in the cleaning fluid has not yet been received. In last week’s Rappahannock News it was reported that the fluid contained gasoline and toluene, but this has not been positively confirmed. “We’re pretty sure it contained gasoline,” said Dr. Gangel. “We’ve asked OSHA [Occupational Safety and Health Administration] regulators to look into the incident.” The school will act as a clearing house for the collection of relevant medical bills, said Dr. Gangel. He is asking anyone who thinks they will receive a medical bill to call his secretary, Ms. Jeanie Dwyer, at 987-8773 by June 3, so they will have as complete a list as possible. When medical bills are received, parents are asked to send copies of them to assistant superintendent Robert Chappell, Rappahannock County School Board Office, P.O. Box 273, Sperryville, VA 22740. Mr. Chappell will send the bill to the Morgan Company, and send confirmation of the mailing to the parents. See Fumes, Page A-6 4-Lane Section Finally Opens ByBRUCESLOANE Rappahannock News Staff Writer Love it or hate it, two more miles of four-lane highway opened in Rappahannock County last week. The section opened is the two east-bound lanes of U.S. 211, between the Covington River at Rediviva and the already completed highway at the Washington bypass. Still to be completed is the western section of the construction on U.S. 211 from the Covington River to the Thornton River just outside of Sperryville. The entire stetch of four-lane road, from the Washington bypass to the outskirts of Sperryville, is slated for completion by August. County residents have mixed feelings about the highway. Some think the county already has too marty miles of four-lane road. Others applaud the improvement in transportation. After the most recent four-lane section was was opened, highway workers began repaving the present, west-bound lanes. This will not require routing traffic to the new stretch. Instead, one lane at a time of the westbound road will be closed for paving until the overlay is complete. uppui tuiimsv IV .'l. w 3 JUUI I UUlUf IlKiy See 4-Lane, Page A-6 A crane steadies a cross-beam as workers ease it into place on the Thornton River bridge. ± T ■%

Planners Pass Hutcheson B&B Permit Request for Trailer Sales Lot Denied By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer For the second month in a row the Planning Commission was faced with two applications for special use permits, and again it recommended to the Board of Zoning Appeals that one application be approved and one be denied. Carol Quaintance had applied for a special use permit to have up to four horse trailers for sale on her 14; acre property on Route 628 near ; Flint Hill. Ms. Quaintance was not ■ present to speak on behalf of her application, but neighbors on either side were present to oppose it. * Elsie Dodson said she opposed having a commercial business in the • agriculture district. “It’s a nice neighborhood,” she said. Freddi Kumli said, “The county spent money developing a Comprehensive Plan. If you keep giving special use permits every time someone applies, you don’t have to spend the money.” Sid Gottlieb asked Mr. Kumli if he owned property nearby. Mr. Kumli said he did not, but his friend William Remington lived next door to the property. Mr. Remington said he opposed granting the special use permit, but he would prefer to put his objections in writing instead of speaking at the hearing. Mike Massie, who represents the Board of Supervisors on the Planning Commission, was chairing the meeting since Chairman Allen Stokes and vice-chairman David Fannon were absent. Mr. Massie said granting special use permits or permits for special exceptions was not “an exception to the zoning ordinance.” He noted that the language “special use permit” and “special exception” was required by state law. “Otherwise they would have all these uses by right and wouldn’t have to come here and apply,” he said. The ordinance allows sales of agricultural equipment in an agricultural zone with a special use permit. Mr. Kumli asked who would enforce the requirement that no more than five trailers including one belonging to Ms. Quaintance would be allowed on the lot. County Administrator John McCarthy said he would be responsible for enforcing the restriction. Mr. Kumli said, “Suppose someone trades in an old one. Before long you have a junk yard.” After first considering delaying action on the application until Ms. Quaintance could present her case, the planners decided to go ahead and vote on the application. Werner Krebser, who represents Wakefield District, made the motion to recommend denial because the area is predominantly residential and the road is narrow. The motion passed 4 to 0 with Mr. Massie abstaining. API* AHA Business & Service ,rfc;yaf Pirectory , I 703/675-3338 Only $3.95 per week for a 1 inch space!

Leon and Betty Hutcheson had applied for a threeroom bed and breakfast in their home on a right-of-way behind Fanning and Ruth Baumgardner’s Christmas tree farm off U.S. 522211. Frank Reynolds, representing the Hutchesons, said they would rent only to adults and non-smokers. The planners had letters of support for the application from John Hartline and John Baumgardner, who also use the right-of-way, and from Jean and Bernard Campagne, owners of the nearby Bleu Rock Inn. The right-of-way is 50 feet wide, Mr. Reynolds noted. Last month the planners recommended denial of Joan and Robert Herrema’s application for a bed and breakfast on a right-of-way off Route 626. In that case other owners using the right-of-way objected because the road is narrow. Stonewall-Hawthom District representative Sharon Pierce said she was concerned because the road to the Hutchesons is narrow even though it is on a 50-foot right-ofway, but she joined the other members in voting to recommend approval. The Board of Zoning Appeals is due to consider these applications and the Herrema application, which was tabled from last month, at their meeting this Wednesday. Mr. Massie appointed Ms. Pierce, Brooke Miller, and Dr. Krebser to a subcommittee to consider adopting stricter erosion and sedimentation control requirements for steep driveways in mountainous terrain.

From Both Barrels Spin Doctors in Control By JOHN GOOLRICK Rodger Provo, who signed on to Linwood Holton’s historic 1969 gubenatorial campaign, recalls that only two of the people associated with that campaign were professional types used to making their living off of politics. Provo, who served in the Holton Administration after Virginians elected the first Republican governor of modem times, says he is put off by the great proliferation of spin doctors into the state’s political bloodstream since those days. He notes that the folks waging a hot war in various battles for GOP nominations for statewide office this year are those who flit from candidate to candidate to keep gainfully employed. “I’m not a purist,” said Provo, “and I recognize that the political scene in this state has changed dramtically. Even so, it turns me off that the candidates apper to be so tightly controlled by their professional handlers...the hired guns are in control.” Indeed, hundreds of thousands of dollars will be spent this year in Virginia. From Democratic and Repubican candidates alike rain fees to consultants whose duties run the gamut from scheduling apperances to arranging radio and television commercials. These same consultants help set much of the campaign agenda using sophisticated survey techniques to determine which issues or themes will play best with the voters. There is scarcely a politician in a contested election on a statewide or regional level who won’t contribute money in various amounts to spin doctors who specialize in manipulation of the electoral process. Certainly, the political consultant has become the almost indispensable factor for those seeking election to public office in Virginia or anywhere else. And they become even more needed in an era when voter distrust of politicans keeps rising and the process grows more volatile all the time. Mary Sue Terry, who has al ready been nominated for governor, will have lots of consultants giving her advice. Some of those advisors may have winced a little during Ms. Terry’s acceptance speech which, as Dr. Larry Sabato pointed out, was bland and short on message content. The University of Virginia professor commenting on television, said that while Ms. Terry’s strategy may be to run a safe dull campaign and rely on her name recognition and popularity to win, going too far in that direction will pose a danger of looking too stodgy if the Republican Party’s candidate comes across as charismatic. My guess is that at least some of Ms. Terry’s hired guns are bound to be thinking the same kind of thoughts and may urge her to jazz things up, particularly if the polls being to tighten as they inevitably will. If I were a spin doctor — Heaven forbid — I would certainly pass on that advise to her; just as I believe very strongly a Republican candidate for governor cannot beat Ms. Terry unless that nominee is willing to take some risks. Those who argue that a GOP nominee will be criticized for “beating up on a woman” if he takes hard shots at Ms. Terry’s public records are correct in that there would be a risk involved, yet should understand that unless holes can be poked in the Terry record then the game will be up anyway. As one politican seeking reelection told me a few years ago, “I just look at the schedule, go where they tell me and say what I’m told to say.” And since he was easily re-elected, he has no reason to change the modem way of doing political business with computerized mailing lists, electronic gadgetry, message manipulation and blue smoke and mirrors. (Editor’s note: John Goolrick, a former political reporter, is now an aide to 1st District Rep. Herbert Bateman. Opinions expressed are his own and not necessarily those of this newspaper.)

General John A. Logan, Commander in Chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, designated May 30 as a day to decorate the graves of soldiers who died in the conflict. Originally known as Decoration Day, the holiday eventually became a day to honor the memory of all war dead. Today Memorial Day is known for its festivities and fun, a three-day holiday marking the beginning of the summer season. There is nothing wrong with that. But we hope that sometime during the long weekend every person will take a few moments to reflect on the true meaning and spirit of this day. Is Our County Safe? When we hear about oil spills, industrial pollution and other disasters that seem endemic to urban areas, it’s hard not to feel smug about Rappahannock County. After all, we live in pristine, unspoiled natural beauty. Things like that don’t happen here. Well, things like that have been happening here. First there was the barrel dump that turned a verdant foest into a repository for chemical waste. Then came the toxic fumes at the elementary school that sent 39 of our children to the hospital. These two unfortunate happenings, especially the events at the elementary school, have caused inner pain, anguish, and suffering. This inner hurts will take much longer to heal than any actual physical damage. And all of us, whether we are directly involved or not, are left with vague feelings of uneasiness and anxiety. Is Rappahannock County no longer a safe place? Is this the start of a slow decline that will turn us into just another D. C. suburb? We think not. Both incidents are isolated happenings. Each was the work of one or two individuals: a reputed careless working condition in one case, and an alleged criminal act in the other. It is unfortunate that they occurred. It is unlikely that this is the beginning of a trend. Accidents can and do happen. Some can be prevented, and some cannot. Often there is little anyone else can do to prevent another from acting in a reckless or criminal manner. The events of the past few weeks are not harbingers of future disasters. Let us be ever vigilant to prevent future mishaps. But let us not view the recent happenings as the end of the Rappahannock way of life. What Road Are You On? If you do not know where you are going, any road will take you there. — Ancient Chinese Proverb Rappahannock Heritage Rappahnnock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan -u The Rappahannock River flows placidly between verdant banks near Route 645 in Amissville. "j * Answers Wanted To the Editor: Concerning the incident May 13, at RCES where our children were exposed to the toxic chemical “Jelled Vandalism Mark Remover” from the roofing project. I need to ask these questions: 1) Why w as I not informed before the roofing project began? I need to know when my child is at risk. 2) Why is the interest of saving money more important than children’s health? 3) Was the roofing company used investigated before being hired for the job? Did they use the safety precautions necessary? 4) Should the roofing company be sued? (Someone knew that toxic chemicals were being used!) I find it impossible to make a decision about my children’s education in this county, especially when grave mistakes are made concerning the physical well-being of our children in the Rappahannock public school system. KIM MCLAUGHLIN Washington Hearty Thank You To the Editor: On behalf on the Rappahannock Chapter of the American Heart Association, I would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to this community for the support we received with our “Celebrity Celebration for Heart.” Our celebrity waiters included the top tip-raising team of Vinnie Carvey and Tut Perrins, as well as Jenks Hubson, Doug and Mary McCabe, John McCarthy, Barabra Slater, Philip and Merrill Strange, and Helen and Emerson Williams. Each of them worked very hard to serve and entertain their guests as well as benefit the American Heart Association. The evening was backed by a crew of extremely hard workers including Rosa Crocker, Marie Davis, Hazel Zinn Day, Cynthia Lawson, Cindy Mahan, Carol Miller, Paul Michols, Gil Webb and Pat Vest Wharton. We had a very successful auction and I would like to thank Phil Irwin and Bill Payne each for manning the microphone in such an entertaining manner. Our gracious contributors to the auction included Richard and Joyce Abell, Bertine’s Resturant, Black Horse Designs, Doug Baumgardner, Country Heritage, Country Manor, designs by Rosa Crocker and Susan McCarthy, Earth Gallery, Faith Mountain Company, Farfelu Vineyards, Flint Hill Public House, Four and Twenty Blackbirds, Jenks Hubson, Laurel Mills Store, Cindy Mahan, Doug and Mary McCabe, Northern Virginia 4-H Educational Center, Rare Finds, Tanya Richey, Barbara Slater, Tralee Farm, and Washington House Reproductions. I would like to give a special word of thanks to Jeff MacNelly for donating the highest money-making auction item, which was an original hand colored and signed “Shoe” cartoon. In addition to the workers, waiters, and auction contributions, I would like to thank Skyline Cold Storage, Meredyth Vineyards, Richard and Joyce Abell, Beverly Atkins, Lillian Ay lor, Rachel Aylor, Frances Dodson, Heidi and Lindsay Eastham, Janet Hofer, Aline Johnson, Pat McCarthy, Kay Miller, Betsy Murray, Lucy Oliver, Becky Parish, Susan Parish, Marion Sharp, Helen Smith and Pat Vest Wharton for their food contributions. And I would like to thank the Washington Fire and Rescue Company for allowing us to have this event in their facilites. Our Planning Committee included Roberta Anderson, Susan McCarthy, Bob Scott, Barbara Wayland, and myself — but above all I want to thank Susan McCarthy for her neverending hard work during each stage of this event. She was my right hand and my sanity through it all and I could not have done it without her. With everyone’s help we had a lot of fun and were able to raise nearly $6,000 which will be used towards research, community services, public health education, and professional education throughout the community. Thanks again for your support .and I hope we will see you next year. ANN H. MILLER Vice President, Rappahannock Chapter, American Heart Assn. Schools Need Help To the Editor: Over the past months, or years, our county like our nation has been deeply concerned with questions which pertain to our children, and our schools. There have been debates over the purchase of property, construction of a middle school and a host of other issues. The dilemma our community is currently facing is the physical condition of the elementary school. The incident which occurred Thursday, May 13 is the type of event which brings terror into the hearts and minds of parents. As a parent I know that no amount of cost saving can rationalize endangering or seemingly endangering my children. Further, I am concerned that as a general rule the attitude of our school system seems to be to emphasize cost saving over children’s welfare. The specific question I pose to the community is: are we being penny wise and pound foolish in our maintenance programs? The general question I wish to pose to the community is: are we in our planning and implementation of programs being penny wise and pound foolish? I am professionally trained as an educator, but I am also trained as an economist. As a taxpaying parent I wish to make several observations which I hope my fellow residents will consider when debating school issues. In first year economics we are taught there are special categories of goods which do not respond efficiently to market pressure. These goods are what we call public goods, and education is one of these special goods. Public goods are characterized by the way their costs and benefits accrue. The benefits of public goods are not concentrated on the individual or individuals who produce the goods. The classic example of how the benefits of a public good accrue is the lighthouse which is built and maintained to guide freight-carrying ships. Now we all know that many more ships benefit from the existence of lighthouses than freighters. Another public good example is the public park. Parks are provided to produce for relaxation and recreation in otherwise gray and automobile-ridden cities, but parks also we have found produced beneficial pollution control. A final example of a public good is the national defense system. We all have different view’s of the benefits of this orgainzation so I will not categorize them. -1.. „i„„ J. vvuku v/* ^ v/v/ vt t' U1UV UV not accrue only to those people who “purchase” them. The classic economic example is the highway system. All people who use our roads pay for the construction and maintenance of the same. The taxes we pay to maintain the roads usually come in the form of higher gasoline prices, but we also pay general road taxes. The significant fact in this case is that the people who benefit most from the existence of the highway system; i.e. the trucking industry does not pay taxes which equal the benefits which they, the truckers gain from the highway system. In fact the average family is subsidizing the trucking industry by the road taxes which we pay. Education is a public good. The benefits of education do not accrue solely to a student, nor to the student’s family. Rather, the benefits of good education spill over into the community at-large. Well-educated citizens were the foundation of our county, and the hope of our founding fathers. As a member of a democratic society I depend on the knowledge and thinking of my fellow citizens to debate, consider, and make the best choices possible for my county and country. By the same token I do not bear the entire financial burden of paying for the education of the children of the county. As my parents and grandparents did before me, I pay something to the state for the provision of education to members of our community, and I will continued to pay for the school system after my children have left it because I wilf still be reaping the benefits of that' school system. ru0Economists generally agree that' the problem with public goods is that public goods are under-provided. The classic examples are the lack of pollution controls on industry, and the failure to protect wildlife. ,J I believe that the school system! of Rappahannock County is suffering from this phenomenon. We ai^e, not providing enough education tpj our students. I am concerned that’ our county may be on the road to developing a second-class school sySI tern, similar to those of th£ segregation era. * I hope that our community con" siders the theory of public goods an<|[ the implications that it carries foi» our school system when they debatal the problems our school system. ANNE KERR ~ Castletoni Wood Blasted To the Editor: ! Last week’s story on the Repub-! lican Convention quoted me saying1, that Mr. Jerry Wood has broken all; three of his promises from his last* campaign. Here is how he did it. ! As far as I know, he took no ac-1 tion on his promise to cap property* tax increases in Fauquier County at! five per cent per year. ; In his first year in Richmond he! did nothing to fulfill his second, promise, which was to obtain impact; fee authority for Fauquier and Rap-' pahannock Counties. During this! past session he introduced a bill, which had no support because he made no effort to develop it. The bill; failed in committee, just as Mr.* Wood figured. The breaking of his third promise; was quite revealing. The promise was that he would not support any! new taxes or tax increses. He actu-! ally said, “Read my lips!” ; Among his first acts as our dele-! gate was to declare his sponsorship! for Doug Wilder’s “Sick Tax,” which; was to be a sales tax on health prod-* ucts and services. Fortunately, it! didn’t pass. ' ! A reporter for this newspaper* asked Mr. Wood why he would spon-! sor such an initiative. His reply:! “I’ve been asking myself the same; question. Why would the governor* want a little old delegate from War-! renton on the health provider bill?! I’d already told him I wasn’t going to! vote for it.” •* < • Mr. Wood is a big asset to the,' party leadership because he dofes{ what he is told. To the purest of lib-* eral Democrats, this is a virtue. ! The rest of us, who want! thoughtful, assertive representation! in Richmond, will vote for Mr. Jay! Katzen in November. ROBERT M.

Panthers Advance In District Tourney r By SHARON KILPATRICK iUpiwhannock News Staff Writer ! The Rappahannock baseball team made the semi-finals in district tournament competition last week With a 5 to 2 victory over fourthdeeded Strasburg Friday. The team was due to play top-seeded Brentsville at Stonewall Jackson Tuesday. ; The Panther squad came into the tournament ranked fifth in the district with a record of three and a half wins to four losses. The half win came when a makeup game scheduled with Stonewall Jackson last Wednesday was called because of rain after six innings with the score tied 1 to 1. J.C. Welch pitched that game. It was a dramatic improvement over an earlier game with Stonewall Jackson which did not count in district standings when the local squad was badly beaten. ; In Friday’s game Leroy North pitched getting 16 strikeouts while K'ng up only three hits. Richie Lilhit a home run scoring three of Rappahannock’s runs. J.C. Welch, Paul Brown, Jason Brown and Luke Zindel also got hits. The softball team seeded third in their district competition did not fare as well losing to sixth-seeded Central at home Monday 22 to 18 in a quarterfinal game. 1 Deitrich Beaver started as pitcher for the Panther squad, and both teams scored two runs in the Wild Animals on First Friday Kids and parents!

Neither team scored in the second inning, but in the bottom of the third inning Rappahannock scored five more runs including four on a grand slam home run by Deitrich Beaver. Central closed with four runs in the top of the fourth. Beaver gave up three walks in a row, and Susan Payne came on in relief. In the bottom of the fourth Rappahannock added two more runs on Lori Paratore’s home run and led 9 to 6. The top of the fifth inning Central added seven more runs and led 13 to 9. Beaver had returned to the pitcher’s mound and gave up several walks and hits. Rappahannock added two more runs in the bottom of the fifth when Paratore nearly gained another homer, getting called out at home after two runners scored ahead of her. Payne was back on the mound in the top of the sixth inning and easily retired the side, but Central still led 13 to 11. Then the Panther squad added another six runs in the bottom of the inning on several Central fielding errors and led 17 to 13 going into the seventh and final inning. With Payne on the mound, Rappahannock was one out away from victory with no one on base when the pitching collapsed and Central added nine runs to their score. Rappahannock added one more run in the bottom of the seventh, but it was Central which advanced to semifinal competition Wednesday. Jason Waters ran fifth in the 3200-meter race at the regional track meet Friday in Charlottesville and will run in the State meet at VMI Saturday. Sari Pellinen came in 12th in the 1600-meter race. 4-H’ers pose before the Washington Monument 4-H'ers Visit D.C. 4-H’ers from Culpeper, Rappahannock and Fauquier Counties recently visited legislators at the Nation’s Capital as the culmination of a seven month citizenship program known as Communities for Creative Learning Experiences or CCLE. Participants from Planning District 9 worked to develop a fuller sense of responsibility and privilege as they studied local, state, and national governments and how they function. CCLE is a 4-H citizenship enrichment program open to 12-19 year olds. It is not necessary to be a current 4-H member in order to participate. The program goals are to develop an understanding of an individual’s role in government, create an appreciation for the freedoms which we possess, and to express opinions on issues of concern to young people through discussion with local, state, and national elected officials. This year’s program culminated in a trip to Washington, D.C. where 4-H’ers met with Congressman Thomas Bliley, Congressman Frank Wolfe, and a representative for Senator John Warner.

Asparagus: Everyone's Spring Taste Favorite By HELEN W. SMITH Extension Agent, Home Economics One of the favorite and most delicious vegetables of spring is fresh asparagus. Asparagus starts to appear in the grocery stores around the end of February and is available through the summer months. The peak months are April and May for asparagus in local gardens. Most of the asparagus that is available in the grocery stores, local vegetable stands, and pick-your-own farms is green asparagus, although some of the fancier grocery stores will sometimes have the white asparagus. Selection When selecting fresh asparagus, choose straight, bright green stalks of uniform size with tight tips and moist bases. When figuring howT much to buy, allow 8-10 stalks - about 1/2 pound - per person. Bundles usually average 2 to 2-1/2 pounds, containing 3-4 dozen stalks. r HOME ECONOMICS To prepare To prepare asparagus for cooking, snap off the tough stem ends and wash asparagus well in tepid water. Remove the scales because they harbor grit. If the skins seem coarse, you may need to peel with a vegetable peeler.

County's Finest Fetes Beard Foundation Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan The kitchen staff of the Inn at Little Washington admires the miniature Washington Monuments for the James Beard House dinner in N.Y. Clockwise, from top left: David Shannon, Matthew Trottier, Robert Fasce, Amy Dencler. Not pictured: Jeff Waite. Inn's 'Spring Fever' Dinner Is Toast of New York City The Inn at Little Washington relocated temporarily to New York City recently to create a benefit dinner for the James Beard Foundation in honor of the late cooking teacher and author James Beard’s 90th birthday. The event took place at Beard’s home in Greenwich Village which has nqw become a culinary center and shrine through the efforts of noted chef and cookbook author Julia Child and other friends of James Beard. The dinner’s theme, “Spring Fever in a Country Kitchen,” involved hauling as much of Rappahannock County to New York as could fit into a rented moving van, according to chef and owner Patrick O’Connell. Inn staff members Tom Petot, David Shannon, Bob Fasce, Barb Wilbur, Amy Dencler, Jeff Waite and Matt Trottier and proprietors O’Connell and Reinhardt Lynch made the journey. They brought a bounty of local products, including the season’s first fresh asparagus from Butch Eastham and Marta Irmen’s garden, and country ham from Tom’s Meat Market in Culpeper. The Sperryville Emporium loaned its famous apple for a visit to its city cousin, the Big Apple. That display from the Little Apple attracted a crowd of curiosity-seekers outside the event. George Washington’s portrait and other props were generously loaned by Arthur and Peggy Smith of the Sperryville Antique Market. Local master cabinet maker Ed Luebke crafted miniature replicas of the Washington monument for each table as well as two fivef foot models which graced the entrance to Beard’s home, surrounded by cherry blossoms. Huge colors photos processed by David Moore of The Inn’s suppliers and local celebrities, including Mrs. Mattie Ball Fletcher, were displayed on easels loaned by artists Tonya Richey and Dan Lewis. Bruce Wetteroth of The Earth Gallery provided sounds of crickets chirping. Elizabeth Pierson raised a bumper herd of rabbits which became the main course braised in fresh pressed cider (the Emporium’s last gallon ’til next year) and the season’s first wild merkles (known in New York as morels) supplied by John Jenkins. Naturally, only Virginia wines were poured, generously donated by three outstanding nearby wineries. Misty Mountain of Madison offered their 1989 Vinter’s Reserve Chardonnay. Prince Michel’s 1991 Cabernet Sauvignon, Cask 91, accompanied the rabbit and a Linden Late Harvest Vidal was showcased as a dessert wine. The dinner proved to be one of the most successful fundraisers ever held at The Beard House, according to O’Connell and Lynch. The money raised will support the ongoing efforts of the James Beard Foundation to further the culinary vision of the man known as the Dean of American Cuisine. As for the dinner, O’Connell said, “Those blase New Yorkers were certainly surprised with the bountiful harvest produced from our area.” 1 Wakefield CDS Honor Roll Named to the honor roll at the Wakefield Country Day School in Huntly are the following students.

Rambler Casts Spells Robin Williamson, musical warlock, caster of spells and roguish rambler through the untamed territories of the centuries of song will be playing at the Theater in Washington at 8 p.m. on June 5. Williamson, founder of the Incredible String Band, one of the ’60s most original and eccentric groups, has transformed himself into a multi-talented Celtic bard, adept at all manner of traditional instruments wrhich he uses to help bring to life ancient, and wildly poetic stories and tales. In the forefront of the storytelling revival, Scotland’s master story teller is unique in drawing not only on the oral heritage of Scotland, Ireland and Wales, but also in having developed a performance style inspired by early Celtic literature and mythology, the Bardic Heritage of the Dark Ages. A versatile multi-instrumentalist and harp virtuoso, his performances combine sarcasm with sidesplitting humor to effect spell binding and enchantment. Tickets for the performance are $10 and are available at Mountainside Market in Washington, 514 in Front Royal and Natural Marketplace in Warrenton. Another Gat Tale By WALTER DAY Rappahannock News Contributing Writer I was doing some home work, research, for this column, re: Rappahannock people and taxes. For natural reasons this subject comes over me every year during rthe spring. While I was submitting my own state taxes and getting the annual assistance from the Commissioners office, I was keeping my eyes and ears open for spicy subject material. There was a cat sleeping in the “In” basket. The most relaxed animal in the room. As everyone must know by now cats are not my favorite animals! So I threw my tax return on top of the cat, hoping to disturb it. The animal opened one eye and from beneath my tax return, impaled me. My immediate thought was to run! I recovered and stood my ground. The cat slowly got up, stood on the return in the basket, arched into the classic cat stretch, yawned, sharpened claws on the return, lay down and went promply back to sleep; or so it appeared. I was instructed to go to the conference room, sit down and some one would be with me in a minute. The room serves also as a kitchen of sorts. There is a sink, a microwave and a tiny refrigerator. « I am not the nosy type so' I did not inventory the refreshments. I did look in the refrigerator but only an academic reaction. At one time I did research at a defense facility on refrigeration so you can understand how one would automatically look inside. When any of my children come to my house, before they say hello even, they look in the refrigerator. Some sort of a spiritual ritual. But not me, it was academic. You know, checking temperature, humidity, frost build up. Day By Day I did notice something unusual. There were 67 boxes of opened edibles, all marked, no cholesterol, no fat, and no calories. The cat food cans were not so marked. The cat looked fairly slim. I was waiting for help with my return, starting to doze, the cat walked in and slowly nudged the door closed. I felt intimidated but was quickly relieved once the cat started talking. He said, “My name’s Calvin T. Cat, you can call me Cal. I just finished checking your return and it looks okay. I note that you write articles for the Rapp News. I used to have a column called, The Court House Cat. The Editor would not print it because it was not signed. I don’t know what was wrong with him, I left foot prints all over it. Anyway I want to tell a little tax story that you might want to use. It happened right here in Rappahannock County.” You cannot imagine how impressed I was with the perfect diction Cal was using. It was, as best as I could judge, a New England accent. I was not surprised that the cat talked. As a matter of fact many years ago when I was drinking I talked to cats and dogs quite a lot, especially when no one else would talk to me. Cal continued, “Several years ago a local farmer was audited, and later charged with making a fraudulent statement. It seems that he was in domestic difficulty and his unhappy wife, hoping to send him to jail, had turned him in. The facts of the case was that, in running the farm business he raised calves for the market. In so doing he bought corn for feed as farmers do. But he also had 12 chickens that produced 12 eggs a day. These eggs were used in his kitchen and the surplus given to friends.” By this time I had an idea who he was talking about. This particular farmer had given me a dozen eggs one time. That was before he knew me very well. He hasn’t offered any since he found out howr high my colesterol count was. Cal interrupted my thoughts by going on, I did not let on that I knew who he was talking about. “Well,” he said, “the farmer was hauled before the judge and the charges were read. These charges were that he had knowingly filed a false tax return. The prosecution addressed the court and explained how they would produce witness (the farmers wife) that would prove how he had fed ground com to the chickens and at the same time deducted the costs from the operation of the farm.” Calvin was getting his second wind by now and rushed to finish the narrative. “The judge looked angry. He stood up and raised his right hand. His voiced boomed out, “this is a frivolous charge. Case dismissed. YOU ARE TALKING CHICKEN FEED.” As Calvin walked out the door he looked at me slyly and said, “I’ve got a million of them, come see me again.” I asked him if he would help me write the column from now on. He said, “No, I’m busy enough just holding that stuff down in the ‘IN’basket!” Wakefield Finds New Home By JESSICA FALK Rappahannock News Staff Writer MARSHALL — Robert Roberts, chairman of the Board of Directors of Wakefield School in Marshall, announced May 18 that Archwood Farms in The Plains is to be the school’s new home. Wakefield has signed a letter of intent with Charles Seilheimer, trustee for Archwood Farms, to eventually purchase 50 acres of the 1,376-acre farm, which includes a 1920’s manor house to be renovated and possibly used for administrative purposes. The terms of the sale were not disclosed. The property is located just outside The Plains, at the intersection of Interstate 66 and Route 245. “The location will provide an easy commute along 1-66 from Rappahannock, Warren and the western counties as well as Prince William, Loudoun and Fairfax Counties to the east and north. All of Fauquier will be within easy reach via U.S. 17,” Roberts said. Seilheimer said that Wakefield and Archwood have been in negotiations for about six months, and Roberts said Wakefield decided on this site two weeks ago. The last two weeks were dedicated to legal arragements, Roberts said. Seilheimer projected that the final settlement of the property will not be for several months, because Wakefield needs to work out some key details, such as architectural feasibility studies. In addition, although the land is zoned for agricultural use, which allows for a school, it will require a special exception permit. While Roberts said that he does not anticipate any friction from the Fauquier County Board of Supervisors and Planning Commission, he estimated that the procedings will • take between six and seven months. Wakefield’s building committee has been searching for a permanent home for eight months, according to Roberts, and Archwood Farms was one of approximately 30 parcels up for consideration. Wakefield School was evicted from its property in Huntly, in Rappahannock County, in August of 1991 after almost 20 years at that location. The eviction by property owner Clydetta Lynn was the result of heated conflicts between cofounder of the school (and Mrs. Lynn’s daughter-in-law) Pamela Lynn and the school’s board of directors during the spring and summer of 1991. Pamela Lynn intended to open a new school, called Wakefield Country Day School, in the same location. However, the board of directors attempted to block her plans. Pamela Lynn filed, and subsequently lifted, a lawsuit against school attorneys Robert Miller and William Bassett for misrepresentation. She said they advised her to convey the property into a tax-exempt trust fund, called Educo, with Miller and Bassett as trustees. In addition, she said they told her to give up her position on the board of directors and control of the school in order to be elgible for registration in the Virginia Association of Independent Schools. The’attorneys never recorded a deed to the property conveying the property to Educo, however, greeting Mrs. Lynn’s eviction notices with questions of who actually had ownership of the property. After several weeks of deliberation, Circuit Court Judge Thomas Horne ruled in favor of Mrs. Lynn, and Wakefield School closed its doors Aug. 12,1991. In less than 30 days, Wakefield had found a temporary home — a wing of the Marshall Manor, a retirement home in Marshall, plus use of its manor house. The lease with Marshall Manor will end in June, 1994. This is when the new school at Arch wood Farms is slated to open. The first phase at Archwood will include renovations of the manor house, Roberts said. In addition, a 20,000-25,000 square foot building housing classrooms and a gymansium will be a part of the first round of construction. These “phase one” facilities will be able to accomodate 300 students. However, Roberts said that plans so not stop there. He expects there will be three or four phases of construction, depending on enrollment increases over the next few years. He projected that subsequent construction will be such that Wakefield will be able to accomodate an expected 500 students in the not-toodistant future. The school’s current enrollment, grades kindergarten through 12th grade, is 177 students, and Roberts projects an enrollment for next year of 210. More than 160 students have already registered for the 1993-94 school year, and he said that he more than 70 parents have expressed interest in sending their children to Wakefield. To compare Wakefield’s future enrollment with those of two prominent private schools in the area, Highland School in Warrenton and Hill School in Middleburg, Wakefield is soon expecting enrollements that are almost double the size of the other two schools. Highland’s enrollment for kindergarten through eighth grade is currently 181 students, and Hill School, also kindergarten through eighth grades, currently enrolls 181 students. In addition, while Hill School, with a 134-acre campus, will have more land than the proposed Wakefield site, Highland falls short with 13 acres. Roberts estimated that the school will raise between $600,000 and $700,000 for phase one construction. He said that Wakefield is starting a new group, called Wakefield Brick by Brick, for fundraising. He added that last year, Wakefield received an anonymous matching grant for up to $500,000. Roberts said that the new fundraising group intends to raise $300,000.
