RJR Grant A Hit By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer As tiie school year is drawing to a close, so is the first year of the RJR/Nabisco project. Fourth-grade teachers say their students are very enthusiastic about learning on computers, but converting the curriculum to computer use is taking longer than they expected. Lynn Gaines reports that even her most reluctant students are excited about lessons on the computer. “We’ve seen a lot of enthusiasm,” she said. “They are highly motivated to do anything on the computer.” Cynthia Brandt reports that many of her students are starting to write stories on the computer. With a limited number of computers “they’re taking turns” using them, she said. She added that some of her students “are sorry they’re moving on to fifth grade next year. They would like to see more” of the computer lessons. The students feel they have been part of the process this year, she added. The RJR team has tried out newT lessons with the students and taken their advice as well as that of the teachers on what works and w'hat doesn’t. “They have been helpful,” she added. “They know they have made changes.” Next year her classroom will have a full complement of computers, enough for each student, and that classroom will be used for all the math classes. The other two fourth grade classes will split the 14 computers already in another classroom. A significant part of the project is having the computers built into student desks so that the desktops will be free w'hen the computers are not being used. After building two prototype desks to hold computers, the school system learned that the concept of computers built into desks is copyrighted, and they must order the desks from one company. RJR team members are eagerly awaiting a sample. This first year, the project team expected to write the programs to teach fourth-grade mathematics on computers. That job is only about half done, Lynn Beahm, the team’s programmer reports. The lessons use graphics, even animation, and sound. Each lesson takes longer than expected, she said. Starting this summer another programmer will be hired for the project. Ms. Beahm expects that to speed up the programming process and to have 80 percent of the mathematics done by the start of school next year and all of the lessons done that will be used in the first part of the year. Then the rest can be finished before it is needed, and the programmers can begin programming language arts lessons. She said the team is not yet certain how to proceed with the lessons in language arts and will use the summer to make plans, “but I don’t expect it to be as computer- intensive as the other subject areas,” she said. Also this summer the fourthgrade teachers will be getting lessons on using “HyperCard,” the program used for programming, so they will be able to write individual lessons for their classrooms, Ms. Beahm said. Another goal of the program has been to teach the fourth graders touch typing on the computer keyboard. The students have a 40-minute lesson each week during their “pull out period.” Some of the students have picked that up quickly and some haven’t, Lelo Wolf reports. Those with computers at home are especially fast at picking up the “Type” program, she said. As a result Layne Vickers, the curriculum specialist with the team, has also been working with third graders on the computers in the fifth and sixth grade computer lab during their 30-minute “pull out period,” she reported. She believes this will enable them to pick up the “Type” program faster next year when they are fourth graders. No 'Done Deals' as GOP Delegates Convene By PATRICK GRAHAM Rappahannock News Stale Writer About 15,000 Republican activists are expected to gather at the Richmond Coliseum in Richmond this weekend to select their slate of nominees for governor, lieutenant governor and attorney general. The 1993 Republican State Convention will end a bitter and costly intra party fight for the gubernatorial nomination between former U.S. Rep. George Allen and millionaire businessman Earle Williams of McLean. Republicans hope their largest convention ever will unify members and add momentum to their slate needed to catch a Democratic ticket outfitted with low negatives and strong name recognition. Allen apparently leads Williams and a distant third challenger, state Del. Clinton Miller, in delegate support. But party members and political analysts say convention dynamics could cost Allen a far from assured victory. “It’s not a done deal at this stage,” said Mark Rozell, a political scientist with Mary Washington College. “But for the other candidates, it will be difficult to overcome Allen’s presumed front-runner status.” The Republican nominees will face a Democratic ticket headed by former Attorney General Mary Sue Terry for governor, and including incumbent Lt. Gov. Don Beyer of Alexandria and William Dolan of Arlington for attorney general. Besides the gubernatorial aspirants, See GOP, Page A-3 Library Board Urges Public Budget Support; Summer Hours Listed By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Library Board members decided to try to get more members of the general public to lobby in support of the library’s budget with their individual supervisors and at the Board of Supervisors’ public hearing on the county budget Monday evening June 7. They also agreed that they would not make suggestions as a board but as individual members for a replacement for Lucia Kilby, who has resigned from the board. Member Mary Jamieson asked why the board could not make sug gestions as a board. “I’m not comfortable with us feeling we should not make a recommendation,” she said. “We’re in a much better position than anyone else to make recommendations. We shouldn’t leave it up to the Board of Supervisors entirely. They have many other things to worry about.” She noted that in the past the supervisors have considered the recommendation of the Library Board. Other members said they would prefer to make suggestions as individuals. Librarian Nicki Lynch suggested that the library change its hours for the summer and return to the 9 a. m. opening time. Starting June 14 the library will be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday and from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Wednesday. Saturday hours will remain from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Mrs. Lynch also said the on-line catalog should be ready by the end of the summer. The board voted to send a letter to the Fauquier library asking for “reciprocal” borrowing privileges. That would mean that users of the Rappahannock Library could also use the Fauquier Library without paying $15 for an out-of-county card.

Mr. Payne ran cross country in the fall and track in the spring. In wrapping up the evening’s recognitions, nigh school Assistant Principal and Athletic Director Larry Carter gave special thanks to the RCHS Booster Club, which raised over $6,000 during the past year and used the money to buy new uniforms and equipment for many sports teams.

McCoy Ponders Effect Of Gun-a-Month Rule I he Virginia State Police recently released regulations governing handgun purchases in accord with the state’s new one-gun-per-30days-law, which goes into effect July The statute, proposed by Gov. L. Douglas Wilder and approved by the General Assembly this year, makes it “unlawful for any person not a licensed firearms dealer to purchase more than one handgun within any 30-day period” unless the purchaser completes an enhanced background check by special application to the Department of State Police. Quentin McCoy, owner and operator of Wolf Mountain Traders, a gun shop on U.S. 211 between Sperryville and Washington, expressed some doubts about the law and how it would touch upon his livelihood. “I’m opposed to any more gun laws,” he said, “but I ..don’t know how this will affect my business.” “The one-handgun-per-30-dayslaw will have little or no effect on Virginia law-abiding citizens,” said Col. Carl R.. Baker, State Police superintendent. The new law permits gun buyers to purchase one handgun every 30 days. Names of purchasers and the date a gun is purchased will be recorded in a calendar data bank to ensure that 30 days have elapsed between gun purchases. Trooper Joins Force Trooper C. Wltfne Sumner, a recent graduate of the Virginia State Police Academy, has been assigned to Rappahannock County. "He has already started working,” said Trooper Charles “Chuck” Moore. “We’re very pleased to have him with us.” Trooper Sumner is a native of Carroll County in southern Virginia. He has spent the last six years with the U.S. Marines in Hawaii, where he served as a corporal with the military police. He is a graduate of Emory and Henry College in Emory, Va. The State Police Academy recently graduated 73 troopers, including Sumner, who have completed the 89th Basic Session at the Academy. The new troopers received 32 weeks of training in subjects ranging from laws of arrest and search and seizure procedures to police professionalism and testimony in court. Capt. Don Martin, commander of the State Police Academy, says the program requires complete dedication on the part of every trooper. “The training builds- character and focuses not only on the academics of criminal justice studies, but also oti excllence in the delivery of police sendees,” Capt. Martin said. Trooper Sumner, ^0, is single. “For the next few weeks I’ll be getting oriented, learning about Rappahannock County and meeting people,” he said. “I hope to find a place to rent very soon and move into the county,” he added.

B&B Guild Has New Members, Plans Second Moveable Feast By SANDRA CARTWRIGHT-BROWN Rappahannock Ncwa Contributing Writer At a recent meeting of the Bed and Breakfast Guild of Rappahannock County two new B&B’s were inspected and approved for membership in the eight year old guild. Both new members, Fairlea Farm and Heritage House, are located in Washington. The total membership of the guild is 11. Since its inception three members have closed operation and five others have changed owners. Four others have continually operated with founding owners. The first and oldest bed and breakfast is The Conyers House, which opened in 1981 and continues to be owned by Sandra and Norman Cartwright-Brown. The second B&B to open was Gay Street Inn founded by Joyce Kramer, and owned since 1987 by Robin and Donna Kevis. The third B&B was the FosterHarris House, founded by Pat Foster and Camille Harris, presently of Richmond and now owned by Phyllis Marriott. Caledonia Farm in Flint Hill was the fourth B&B in the county and continues to be owned and run by Phil Irwin. Heritage House opened next and was owned first by Nan and Jim Thomasson, secondly by A1 and Polly Erickson and presently by Jean and Frank Scott. Since the bed and breakfast industry began in 1981 with The Conyers House there have been 25 such establishments owned in the county, 15 of which are still operating. A logo was approved for use by the guild. It is based on the county seal and therefore was approved by John McCarthy, zoning administrator. A Added to the handsome county seal is a pineapple representing gracious hospitality since the 18th century. Ship captains returning from island ports returned to America bringing pineapples which were considered generous, if not exotic, fare for those guests lucky enough to be served by the Captain. This pineapple has additional history dating from 1720-50 when it was designed and used by Moses Eaton, a Connecticut stenciller. The guild will also follow its successful Moveable Feast, held May 23, with a second event July 4. Popular during the past few years, the “feast” is a progressive dinner involving four courses at four different B&Bs. A third “feast” is planned for Sept. 12. Each day there will be a 1 p.m. or 3 p.m. seating. Guests should plan on approximately five hours for the meal; the cost is $60, including wine, gratuity and tax. Reservations may be made by calling 675-3757, or 9879454. Participating in the Moveable Feasts are Blue Knoll Farm and The Conyers House for libations and appetizers; sbup and salad at the Foster-Harris House and Gay Street Inn; the entree and wine at the Public House in Flint Hill; and dessert and coffee will be served at Thistle Hill and Apple Hill Farm.

The Rappahannock County Water flc Sewer Authority at the meeting on May 20, 1993 adopted, by resolution, a preliminary schedule fixing and classifying such rates, fees and charges. The proposed amendment to the schedule of rates, fees and charges are as follows: 1 Each owner of the residential and/or non-resdentlal low proved property which shall be connected to and/or served by the Sewer System shall pay sewer rentals or charges at a rate of $64.50 per quarter per equivalent dwelling unit. This notice is being published once a week for two (2) successive weeks In the Rappahannock News, a newspaper having a general circulation in the County of Rappahannock, Virginia, at least sixty (60) days prior to the date of the above described hearing. A copy of this notice is being mailed to the Clerk of the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors. Upon adoption of these amendments, with appropriate modifications, if any, a copy of the same will be filed In the Office of the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors of Rappahannock County. also the flower designer for Airlie and her work has been featured in many newspapers, on television, and in such respected magazines as Southern Accents and Garden Design. Ms. Newton’s primary message was to “break the rules” and “arrange from the heart” when creating floral arrangements. She suggested using glass containers because the flowers last longer. Other tips included allowing the cut flowers to sit in water for up to 18 hours prior to using them, applying a bleach solution to the stems, adding warm water to the arrangements every day, and - most importantly - to listen to the flowers when arranging. As she made her presentation she was creating what turned out to be a breathtakingly beautiful ar-< rangement which stood nearly six feet tall. Her creation included rhododendron, lily greens, iris, hostas, wheat stalks, pom-poms, and peonies. * DeBergh On Honor Roll Randolph-Macon Preparatory School announces that John DeBergh has been inducted into the National Junior Honor Society.

Park Marks Trail Day Shenandoah National Park will observe America’s first National Trails Day on Saturday, June 5, to commemorate the 25th Anniversary of the National Trails System Act. Shenandoah National Park has more than 500 miles of trails, making much of the Park accessible to hikers. The trails vary in length from short leg-stretchers to a 95mile segment of the Appalachian Trail that runs the entire length of the Park.

Will GOP Conclave Surpass '78? Rr IAUV PAAI Dl/ur — w ^ Rappahannock New. Special Writer In my days as a journalist I went to numerous political conventions, including eight national political gatherings, and quite naturally I have lots of memories associated with that attendance. In 1972 I was among a group of media folk inadvertently tear gassed at the Republican National Convention in Miami Beach. In Kansas City in 19761 watched as Ronald Reagan almost beat out incumbent President Gerald Ford for the party nomination. In 1980 President Jimmy Carter seemed out of sorts at the Democratic convention in New York City. On reflection, I think he knew he was doomed to defeat in November. But of all the conventions I ever attended, I think the most exciting and electric was the 1978 Virginia Republican convention held at the Richmond Coliseum. I was part of the working press then and there had been a real dogfight for the nomination for U.S. Senate to succeed William L. Scott, whose name is seldom heard in political circles these days. The front runner from the beginning had been Richard D. Obenshain, the former party chairman whose conservative leadership had helped build a two-party system in Virginia. John W. Warner, a former Secretary of the Navy, who was married to actress Elizabeth Taylor at the time, had made great strides in a delegate hunt that took him and his wife around to every area of the state. Behind them in the chase were Lin wood Holton, who had become the state’s first Republican Governor in 1970, and State Sen. Nathan Miller. A vivid account of that historic convention is told by Frank Atkinson in his book, “The Dynamic Dominion.” The man who presided over it was Herbert H. Bateman, then a state senator and now a member of Congress, who won praise from all sides for his evenhanded performance. As I recall, around 9,000 delegates and alternates were on the convention floor, making it in those terms the biggest political convention ever held in the history of the country. It was a long day’s journey into night with all sorts of floor fights over rules, and much balloting. But the one thing, strangely enough, that I remember more than anything else is the sight of Elizabeth Taylor in a sailor suit leading a throng of Virginia Through Both Barrels Warner supporters in cheers while a band played “Anchors Away.” Warner came close to winning, but no cigar. Then Obenshain was tragically killed in a plane crash weeks later and the rest is history. Now Warner will be among those returning to Richmond for what promises to be a new, record-setting in attendance, political convention in the history of the world. It happens this weekend when between 12,000 and 14,000 Republicans, depending on various estimates, show up to choose nominees for governor, lieutenant governor and attorney general. Forget about who will be nominated for a moment and think about the sheer logistics of putting on such a humongous convention. Delegates must be registered and seated. Arrangements must be made by candidates for the obligatory hospitality suites. Rules of order must be drafted, passed and enforced. The responsibility of insuring a memorable convention that will be regarded as fair to all rests on the shoulders of Pat McSweeney, who will undergo his test of fire as the state party chairman. In 1978, though the fighting was long and hard between the various factions, the convention somehow turned out remarkably well. When Obenshain was nominated, everyone rallied behind him and when Warner was named as his successor nominee, a spirit of party unity was the key in his narrow victory over Democrat Andrew P. Miller. The coming show in Richmond will get its place in the “Guinness Book of World Records”. The question is not whether it will be remembered, but whether it will be remembered by Virginia Republicans 15 years later fondly, as the 1978 convention is, or with bitterness.

Day REALTOR NEGOTIATING THE SALE When either selling or buying a home, negotiating the best possible price and terms is an art, and it is one that often times takes much training and experience. Usually, a third party, such as a real estate agent, can act as a buffer between the two principals and work out the differences that would be hard to overcome by both buyer and seller meeting face to face and not trained in negotiating. Also, someone not involved in the actual transaction can take a more distant and realistic look at the two sides and offer solutions that a buyer or seller who are emotionally involved would not think of. Some of the largest and most sophisticated corporations in the country regularly hire negotiators for Important projects because of their expertise, so it's only natural that someone buying or selling a home, which usually represents one's largest financial investment, would have an agent negotiating on their behalf.

Zoning Board Rejects, Approves By SHARON KIL iCK Rappahannock New* tar When the Board ng Appeals considered twe ise permit applications * -d and breakfast businesses on private rights-of-way last Wednesday, they approved one and denied the other. Attorney Frank Reynolds represented both applicants. The first application by Joan and Robert Herrema for a three-room bed and breakfast in their home off Route 626 in Tiger Valley had been tabled from the April meeting at the applicants’ request. Mr. Reynolds noted that he had looked into the titles on both the Herrema property and the Blue Knoll property. The BZA approved a special use permit for a two-room bed and breakfast business at Blue Knoll in June 1989. Mr. Reynolds noted that when the Planning Commission recommended that the Herremas’ application be turned down they were told that the right-of-way to the property was 15 feet wide and that the one for Blue Knoll was 30 feet wide. Mr. Reynolds said his research showed that most of the right-ofway to the Herrema property is 30 feet wide with a section at the beginning that is 18 feet wide. He said the right-of-way to Blue Knoll is 20 feet wide. BZA member Sid Gottlieb said, “The thrust of the argument in relation to the Blue Knoll that I am hearing is that since we made an error then, we should repeat the error now.” Mr. Reynolds said that wasn’t his argument. “The Blue Knoll is on a 2tyfoot right-of-way. Has that created any problem? The two roads are similar,” he said. Mr. Reynolds said he had learned that if all three bedrooms were rented that would add an average of 12 car trips a day, and that the Herremas could only expect about 20 percent occupancy. He said that would add about three car trips a day. He said the Herremas were willing to repair any damage to the right-of-way caused by traffic to the bed and breakfast, that they would be willing to have a temporary permit to be reviewed after two or three years, and that they would agree to put down calcium chloride to hold down dust and to plant trees and bushes to shield his neighbors from the road if they wanted the plantings. The right-of-way serves s^eral properties. One property is used on weekends. Terry and Karen Waggener and Lois Manookian are permanent residents. Another property has a house which is rented to a fulltime resident. All together eight or nine properties are served by the right-of-way that could become full time residences. Lois Manookian said that she did not really object to the number of trips as much as the having people she didn’t know using the right-ofway. She said there had already been one accident on the road. She added that she was concerned that other lot owners might build houses and ask to have bed and breakfast businesses using the road. Terry Waggener said sometimes cap travel too fast on the road. He said one of his cats had been killed on the road. When the time came for a vote Alex Sharp and Jimmy Swindler Jr. voted for the application. Sid Gottlieb, “Butch” Zindel, and Jennifer Matthews said they could not make the finding that “The proposed use shall be such that the pedestrian and vehicular traffic generated will not be hazardous or conflict with the existing and anticipated traffic in the neighborhood and on the streets serving the site,” so the application was denied. The BZA later approved an application by Leon and Betty Hutchinson to have a three-room bed and breakfast in their home on a 50foot right-of-way off U.S. 522-211 across from the high school. In that case, not only is the right-of-way wider, but there is also a maintenance agreement among the property owners using the road. Also none of the other property owners opposed the application and two wrote letters to the BZA supporting the Hutchinsons. The BZA also denied an application for horse trailer sales. Carol Quaintance had applied to have up to four trailers for sale on her property near Flint Hill. No one appeared at the BZA to either support or oppose the application. The application was denied because members said it was not a suitable location for a sales business. ►GOP From Page A-l GOP delegates will pick between lieutenant governor hopefuls Loudoun County attorney Michael Farris and former White House aide Bobbie Kilberg of McLean, and between attorney general candidates Del. Steve Agee of Roanoke and Henrico County Commonwealth’s Attorney James Gilmore. For much of the past year, Williams has launched a attack on Allen’s tenure on Capitol Hill. Allen left Congress after losing his 7th District seat due to redistricting in 1991. Williams has charged that Allen used his congressional budget to run his gubernatorial campaign, taking advantage of perks such as mass mailings and long-distance phone calls. Allen in 1992 had the third largest budget —$666,194 —out of Virginia’s 10 congressmen, even though Allen was not running for reelection. Williams said this contradicts Allen’s published statements from his congressional campaign that he would fight against such abuses. Allen, who has lost some support because of publicity about his congressional budget, said his spending reflects the sprawling size of his old district. Allen has responded to William’s attacks, saying the millionaire founder of BDM International of McLean is trying to buy the election. So far, Williams has invested more than $2 million of his own money into the campaign. As for issues, Allen is at odds with both Williams and Miller over gun control, taxes and abortion, all considered litmus test issues for Republicans. In the race for governor, observers and party officials say Allen must win on the first ballot with a 51 percent majority. If he fails, some delegates may perceive Allen as weak and could throw their support behind Williams or Miller. “A second ballot is essential for Williams who cannot win on a first ballot," said John Goolrick, a former Allen aide who now works for U.S. Rep. Herb Bateman (R-7th). “Just talking to people around the state, it seems that George Allen will win on the first ballot.” s Spcrryvillc Volunteer Fire Department's AMUAL t t j.

The 6 Audit Bureau WEDNESDAY, JUNE 2, 1993 Tourists Are Big Biz Many residents and businesses in Rappahannock County depend on outside visitors — tourists, that is — for their livelihood. Outside money supports Rappahannock. Tourists spend money. At the Spring Festival in Sperryville last weekend, several thousand tourists were handing out the green for food, gifts, souvenirs, artwork, gasoline, catalog sales, pony rides, overnight accommodations, and much more. They were being treated to free music, exhibits, store displays, and our natural beauty. Even businesses that have little direct contact with outside visitors benefit from them. They sell to the establishments that sell to tourists. This diverse group includes, for example, farmers, insurance agents and suppliers and services of all all kinds, even the Rappahannock News. Thirty years ago when the Sperry ville Emporium was a school house and the Inn at Little Washington was a garage, Rappahannock County was not a tourist center. Travelers stopped here for gas and apple juice on their way to Skyline Drive and Shenandoah National Park. Skyline Drive is still the primary destination for most tourists. But more and more folks linger for a while. They come for the Spring Festival, Fourth of July celebration, or ;the Apple Harvest. They linger to enjoy our unique shops, ;uncrowded mountain springtimes, brilliant autumn foliage and .‘softly gurgling streams. The future of Rappahannock County does not lie in heavy industry or manufacturing. Our future destiny lies in what the land and its people itself can give. We offer visitors a way of life that is fast disappearing. We offer them what may be a final chance to see the land, the mountains, the streams, and the forests in a near pristine and unspoiled state. Some residents feel that Rappahannock County should be for day visitors only, and we should not encourage overnight guests. Let them look and leave. Why should they stay longer? We feel this is short-sighted. The Rappahannock experience is more than a day trip. We should encourage ; visitors to stay longer. It’s good for them, and it’s good for us. To do this, we need to make the special features of Rappahannock County so attractive to visitors that they will want to spend their limited vacation dollars here and not someplace else. Both visitors and residents will benefit. The tourists receive full value in the unique and enjoyable vacation they are •seeking. We, the residents, can make an adequate living ^without smoking factories or two-hour commutes to the city. * If we don’t keep our special features, our Rappahannock way of life will erode away. Eventually we will become just another extension of the D.C. metropolitan area, an exurb -With strip malls, department stores, and chain motels, as is .happening today in Warrenton, Culpeper, and even Front -Royal. If you want this to happen, do nothing. In a few years you’ll get what you want. Clinton's First 140 Days President Bill Clinton has been in office a little over four months. Even he admits he has made some mistakes. Presidents Ronald Reagan and George Bush were in office for eight years and four years, respectively. They both made some mistakes, too. Clinton still has more than three-and-a-half years left on his term. Let’s withold judgment for now and give him some time. To All, A Beginning Good beginnings do not guarantee happy endings.

Many of us have been concerned for quite some time that there are so few constructive activities for teenagers here in Rappahannock County, especially during the summer. Now the staff of Ki Theatre has come up with the Summer Program in the Performing Arts for Teenagers which offers teenagers a chance to have a great time while working hard at something exciting, rewarding and fulfilling. After talking with Sharon Wyrriek, director of the summer program and a long-time professional in the performing arts, we are convinced that teenagers will have a wonderful opportunity to gain new’ skills in communication, self-discipline and cooperation. We were delighted to find out that The Summer Program for Teenagers is structured to welcome young people of all levels of experience, including those who have never been involved in the performing arts before. I he summer program is not about stardom. It is about accomplishment, working together to create something that others can then enjoy and be enriched by. This program will demand a daily disciplined approach to working with other teenagers and a staff of professionals to produce a culminating production, to be presented to the public on July 31 and Aug. 1. This is the first year for The Summer Program in the Performing Arts for Teenagers. As with all new programs, it needs the support of the community. We would deeply appreciate it if all Rappahannock News readers would spread the word to teenagers, the parents of teenagers, and your neighbors, so that everyone knows about the program both here and in the surrounding counties. The tuition seems to us amazingly reasonable but there is also a scholarship fund for those who may need financial assistance. We applaud those businesses and individuals who have come forward to contribute toward these partial scholarships so far but Ki Theatre still needs many more contributions to be sure that every teenager who wants this opportunity can have it. If we want such great opportunities to be available to our young peo pie this summer and in future summers we need to pull together and support this unique and superb program for teenagers. JOYCE and RICHARD ABELL Woodville Telephone Thoughts To the Editor: The petition for expanded local area telephone service for 675-exchange customers in Washington gathered, in less than one week, four times the amount needed to begin the process. It has been sent to the State Corporation Commission in Richmond, which will over the next three months do a cost study. By Labor Day the second step should begin. All 950 “675” customers will receive a letter from the commission asking if they would be willing to have an exact anount, probably a few dollars, added to their bills to be able to call toll free tc all the Culpeper exchanges (937, 547, 825, etc.) We will be given 60 days to respond. at least half of those who respond vote yes, the third step will begin. All 14,000 Culpeper customers will be sent the same sort of letter asking if they would be willing to pay approximately 30 cents more per month to be able to call “675” toll- free. In most large counties like Culpeper such as Fauquier, Albemarle, and Rockingham, the outlying areas such as Marshall, Scottsville, and Bridgewater have their own exchanges. But out of Culpeper the outlying areas of Amissville, Castleton, Boston, and Richardsville are all considered part of the same exchange as the town of Culpeper. Here, I believe, lies the problem with step three and why past attempts at this have failed. Most people in the distant parts of Culpeper County have no need or desire to call Washington, Va. If 937 and 547 were their own exchanges as in other large counties, I feel the majority of customers in Amissville, Castleton and Boston would vote yes and this would pass easily. So, in five months, when the Culpeper customers vote it will be a struggle to get 50 percent to vote even if it only cost them 30 cents. During comversations with the helpful people in Richmond, Mr. Wickhan commented on how, in looking at his detailed map of all the exchanges in Virginia, Culpeper appeared to be the largest in the state while the Washington exchange barely shows up. He also gave ne some interesting figures comceming the number of lines different exchanges can call lo cally and how much basic service costs before other fees and taxes are added. Madison (948, 923, 543): 22,000 lines; $11.91 Culpeper (937, 547, 825, etc.): 19,000; $10.89 Sperryville (987): 16,000; $11.57 Front Roval (635, 636): 13,000; $9.77 Washington (675): 2,000; $8.45 I asked them to try and have Centel and C&P run a simple aver-, age monthly telephone bill amount of residential customers in the 675 (950 lines) and 987 (1,100 lines) exchanges. Of the six separate exchanges in Rappahannock County, these two are adjacent, of similar geographical size and number of lines and are the only two entirely in the county. If feel it would present to all parties concerned a very graphic example of the inequity of the situation here. Heck, in my neighborhood three miles outside Washington we have 675, 987, and 937 numbers. Also, in talking to them I found out who has power controlling the telephone franchises. The governing body in each jurisdiction can revoke a franchise if the level of service is inadequate. But then I was told that the level of service and the size of local calling area are considered separately. It is my opinion that a small county separate exchanges, having a toll boundary in the center of the county, and a situation where a town in the east can call a town in the west but not halfway there to its own county seat, but is able to call free two other county seat constitutes a very low level of service. bo, it next tall the customers in another county, Culpeper, who can already call 21/2 counties free decide we in Washington and Flint Hill don’t deserve to call more than half of our own county, than I truly hope our elected officials will take on the responsibilty to change what only they can and demand from both phone companies answers to why they can’t or won’t give Rappahannock county-wide local service. Many people here pay more for telephone service than for real estate taxes. I’ve heard some say their monthly bill is bigger than their mortgage or rent. If the Board of Supervisors and Town Council aren’t interested in correcting a very expensive situation affecting their constituents, than I ask, When is the next election? Congress, after many years of discussion, is about ready to let phone companies and the cable TV industry into each others’ business. Adelphia Cable TV is right now wiring the more populated areas of the county with high-capacity fiber optic lines. Perhaps they would be interested in going to every residence in the county with both cable TV as well as county wide local telei phone service! ! TOM WILKINS Washington Library Seeks Help i To the Editor: J Next Monday, June 7, the Boarjl of Supervisors, in the last meeting of this fiscal year, will finalize the budget for the next. ! This is always a difficult job, an{l since the library (a county facility which is also a part of the Virginia State Public Library system) is again asking for an increase ih county funding, the Board of Trustees is asking that the users of the ljbrary speak in support of this very important educational and cultural facility. * Volunteers provide almost half (JJthe time spent by staff in running the library. They are skilled in the various chores required by a modern library — checking, cataloging, rtjsearching, filing, advising, etc. anfl provide the equivalent of over half the money budgeted for staff. We could not operate without them. f Another quarter of the budget goes for the purchase of new book.'L magazines and audio-visual materials which must be constantly repleiji ished and updated, despite thy further addition of many iteir*; which are given to us by our patrons. ► Outside of the regular budget, the state has provided a grant for ug to computerize our collection and tjo gain on-line access to other collections. This should be in place by th£ end of the summer. r The rest of the budget goes to operating and maintaining our lovely new building. There is really no “fat” in the budget. Thanks to the generosity of hundreds of donors, there |s no debt. The building is completely paid for. The county has been generous m its financing to operate and to heft) modernize. As the county funds ipcrease, the state increases its funding to match, and becomes more sensitive to our requests for grants! Thus we can add to and diversify our collection and provide a significant supplement to our public ai|d private educational systems, to our disadvantaged and under-educate!d adults, and to those temporarily copfined under the sheriffs care. We hope that those of you wtio are concerned (our statistics show that the number of users is still ipcreasing) will contact your supervisor and/or come to Monday’s board meeting.

GROGAN Rappahannock News Contributing Writer The Culpeper Minute Men Chapter, NSDAR, met at the Fauquier Springs Country Club in Warrenton on Tuesday, May 11 for a luncheon and meeting to celebrate the 70th birthday of the founding of the Chapter. Presiding was the Regent, Mrs. Thomas Eastham, who welcomed all and introduced the impress vie list of guests, comprising National, State, District and Chapter officers and members of neighboring chapters. Of special interest was the 70 year old hand painted flag, the original Culpeper Minute Men Chapter’s flag, brought in by Mrs. Claude Guinn to be displayed on this occasion. The President General’s message was read by Mrs. Dieter Kneupfer. In it, Mrs. Blair spoke proudly of the DAR accomplishments over the years in the contributions and programs of the Society and stressed continued energies to promote and preserve the ideals of the United States. The National Defense report, read by Mrs. Edward Barton, consisted of a Resolution passed at the Continental Congress in April, titled “I am an American” which encourages the use of English as our national language. To celebrate the birthday, a skit, perpared by Mrs. Woodruff Kearns, was presented, called “Leaving Our Mark.” Ex-Chapter Regents taking part spoke of the special events surrounding the marking of graves by the chapter starting with that of Betty Washington Lewis, originally marked in 1928 and rededicated in 1973 as a 50th year anniversary of the Chapter. Pictures of the graves, dedicated and marked with respect and love, were shown and described. Mrs. Eastham introduced the speaker, Mrs. Robert S. Lipes, State Regent, Virginia Daughters of the American Revoluntion. The title of her message was “What it means to be a DAR.” She spoke of the ideals of the DAR - which all members promised to support and which are all under attack in this country. She asked how far should members go being a DAR. It is necessary to learn how one stands in order to support the organization. Honorary President General Mrs. Eldred Yochim gave a special thank you to Mrs. Lipes for what she said and reitereated her comments. Special thanks were given to all who made the celebrations a success, especially Mrs. Edgar F. Puryear, Jr. who served as chairman and Mrs. Woodruff Kearns who wrote the skit.

International Science Fair Trip Left Finalist Elated, Exhausted Judges' Grilling Showed Interest; Knowledge By JIM CLARK IV Rappahannock News Contributing Writer I left for Biloxi, Miss., and the International Science and Engineering Fair, with my father on Saturday, May 8. We met Zee French, of Greene County, the other winner of the regional fair, and his dad at Dulles. We took a jet flight from Dulles to Atlanta where we transferred to a 31-seat prop-plane. This plane took us to Gulfport Regional Airport, 1015 miles west of our destination in Biloxi. A bus service took us the remaining distance to the Gulf Beach Resort. .This hotel was only 50 feet from the beach. For the rest of the day, we relaxed. The next morning, Zee and I took our information to the Mississippi Coast Coliseum, where the exhibits were to be displayed. We registered, and then spent the rest of the day on the beach. On Monday, we completed registration and began to assemble our projects. At 3:30 p.m., we boarded buses for the opening ceremonies. The ceremonies were held at NASA’s Stennis Space Center, about 40 miles west of Biloxi. We arrived at Stennis Space Center and had a barbecue dinner. At 7 p.m. the opening ceremonies began with the presentation of flags from all countries represented in the . fair. Next we heard speeches by the head of Stennis Space Center and by the pilot of two space shuttle Discovery flights. We then boarded the buses for the Stennis Space Center Engine Test Complex, where we waited 30 minutes while a new space shuttle main booster engine was prepared for testing. At 10:15 p.m., a sudden rumbling noise filled the air and steam from the water cooling system began billowing out from the test tower. It felt as if we were being pounded on the chest. The test continued for five and a half minutes, and when the engine finally shut off, the air was filled with a huge mushroom-shaped cloud of steam. On Tuesday, we returned to the Coliseum for photography and final safety checking of our projects. Both Zee’s and my exhibits passed without trouble, and we were free for the day. I spent the afternoon jet-skiing. At 5 p.m. a beach party began with the arrival of the Navy SEALS. Six SEALS jumped from a plane and parachuted to a soft landing on the beach. Dinner Was provided by the Coliseum staff. Wednesday was a full day. Finalists faced over seven hours of judging. Despite the long hours, we found that the judges were knowl edgeable, interested, and open. Thursday morning, I was required to be at my project to greet the public and answer questions. Hundreds of school kids visited the Fair. At noon, I convinced Zee and his dad to jet-ski, and all four of us went out. That evening the Special Award Convocation Number 1 was held. Neither Zee nor I won a thing at this ceremony. Friday morning, Special Award Convocation Number 2 was held. The IEEE Computer Society presented me with a thrid-place special award. This was a plaque, $150, and membership in the IEEE Computer Society. Later, at the ISEF Grand Awards Banquet, Zee won third place in his category winning a plaque, and $200. The two winners of the entire fair were presented an all-expensepaid trip to Stockholm, Sweden, to attend the Nobel Peace Prize Awards Ceremony. The winners were also presented a four-year $8,000 scholarship to the college of their choice. That night we took down our projects. Saturday morning at 5 a.m. we awoke to catch the bus that took us to the Gulfport Airport and eventually back to Rappahannock County. Pholo courtesy of Jim Clark James S. Clark IV represented Rappahannock High School at the International Science and Engineering Fair. Clark Takes 3rd In Fair James S. Clark IV, of Washington, received a third place award in the 44th International Science and Engineering Fair held recently at Mississippi Beach, Miss. Clark, a student at Rappahannock County High School, was presented with a $150 award and a plaque from the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineerss (IEEE) Computer Society. He also received a free membership in the IEEE Computer Society. More than 800 students the United States and several foreign countries competed for top prizes of scholarships, trips to Europe, cash awards, computers and educational equipment. Clark’s project, “The Traveling Salesman Problem: Modeling Likely Human Problem-Solving Performance” involved using a computer to determine how a person would solve the problem of visiting some 20 different cities while travelling the shortest possible distance. “The judges were great,” said Clark, “There were almost as many judges as competitors. They knew what they were talking about, and asked intelligent questions. At one point there were 15 or 16 judges looking at my exhibit at the same time:” “The beach was great, too,” he added.

A native of Chile, Margarita has been living with Mr. and Mrs. Kent Reeve of Washington as part of the Youth For Understanding (YFU) international exchange program. Local YFU volunteer representative, Katherine A. Earley, gave heartfelt thanks to the residents of Washington and Rappahannock County, as well as the students and teachers at Rappahannock High School for welcoming Margarita so warmly into the community, and showing her wThat American life is all about. Special thanks go to Margarita’s host family, the Reeves,” said Early. “They welcomed her as part of their family, treating her as a daughter. The Reeve family provided more than a home and meals; they also gave love, guidance, and the experience of what life is like in an American family,” she added.

Under the terms of the award, Larrieu is to spend the academic year conducting an independent study of a subject which relates to her teaching; she has chosen to analyze the complete Iliad and Odyssey in the orginial Greek. She will translate all 34,000 lines of the original text; read ancillary works about the epic in general, about Homer, and about echoes of Homer in Western literature; and meet regularly with her mentor, University of Virginia Professor Jenny Clay. “For some years now,” Larrieu com merited, “I have had desire to consider the epics of Homer in their entirety rather than in the bits and pieces which must necessarily be the grist of textbooks. The teacher-scholar program is thus a dream come true." With this grant, the National Endowment for the Humanities has honored Larrieu and Wakefield Country Day School, WCDS board of directors chairman William Beeton noted. ‘‘The board is extremely pleased that Mrs. Larrieu has received this sabbatical grant. “This is something for Wakefield Country Day School to be very proud of,” Mr. Beeton added, “and the board is pleased to be able to cooperate with Mrs. Larrieu to schedule her sabbatical.” Wakefield Students Take Top Prize in Math League Contest The sixth grade team from Wakefield Country Day School at Huntly won first place in the region in the Virginia Math League Contest. Jacob Konick of Washington made the second highest individual score.

Nearly 250 Virginia schools competed in the contest. The top five scores together, from all the scores of the sixth grade contestants, comprised the team score. Every one of the WCDS sixth grade contestants in the Virginia Math League Contest had a score of 23 or more, in a contest in which a score of 15 or more is commendable, according to Ms. Todd.

There are many forks in the road. Even basic decisions can become difficult. Yet, when we shape our lives with God at the center, "impossible" dreams become possible. L.od nas designed a divine destiny tor eacn or us i ne t>ioie nas toid us wnat it is . . . and what it is not. "For God has not destined us for wrath ..." (1 Thessalonians 5:9), "He destined us in love to be His sons [and daughters]" (Ephesians 1:5). However, God has given us free will . . . the freedom of choice. When aligned with His will, it is positive, but unaware of His plan, our lives can become a muddle of mediocrity. May we design our lives around God's divine destiny. Worship each Sabbath. You will reap the wisdom of His Word, the serenity borne of faith, and the strength for untold tomorrows.

Spinach is a Favorite for Spring Meals By HELEN W. SMITH Extension Agent, Home Economics The arrival of spring signals warmer weather, budding trees, and garden-fresh spinach. Even though we’ve had a wet season so far and •people are late planting their gardens, hopefully we’ll have fresh spinach and lettuce coming up soon. Preparation * You’ll need to wash spinach several times since sand tends to cling to its crisp, curly leaves. To make the job easier, dissolve a little salt in the first wash water, or use warm water if the spinach is to be cooked. Continue washing with clean, cold water until sand no longer settles to the HOME ECONOMICS botom of the sink. Drain and pat the leaves dry if the spinach is to be used raw.

The trick in preparing fresh spinach is to guard against overcooking. Cooking it quickly preserves its color and quality as well as valuable nutrients (vitamin A, vitamin C, and iron). You won’t have to add extra water to the pan - the water that clings to the leaves after the spinach has been washed and drained provides sufficient moisture to steam the vegetable.
