Big Weekend Planned By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock News Staff Writer Homecoming this Saturday, Oct. 23 at Rappahannock County High School has plenty of events planned for everyone attending the soccer game and festivities. Led by coaches Wayne Dodson and Jeremy Tole, alumni will play against RCHS allstars. Alumni Gary Leake requests that all alumni playing in the game wear dark shirts, preferably navy blue. The game begins promptly at 2 p.m. Alumni players who have not preregistered may show up on time and play anyway. This has been Spirit Week at RCHS, kicked off with a very enthusiastic pep rally held in the gym Monday afternoon. Faculty judged the spirit (cheering) of each class, and decided that the juniors won. Also on Monday, students wore blue and gold to show their support. Tuesday was “hat day”, Wednesday “imitation day," the students imitate teachers and vice versa, Thursday is “()0’s day”, and Fridav is “college or pro sport day," wear clothes in support of your favorite team. Each class has been decorating a section of the school, selecting their representatives for the homecoming court, and preparing floats for the halftime parade. Beginning at 2 p.m. on Friday, there will be two student-faculty basketball games. The first will fea ture the women faculty against the girls and the second the male faculty versus the boys. Each game will last 20 minutes. The RCHS cheerleaders and Varsity Club will be sponsoring an Autumn Carnival following the homecoming soccer game. It will take place on the baseball field. A ticket good for one try at each of ten events costs $1.00. These events include a dunking booth with mostly faculty and some student victims, football toss, soccer kick, dart game, softball toss, apple bobbing, basketball shoot, baseball throw, and guessing how many candy corn fill a jar. Caramel apples will be for sale. All prizes have been donated by local merchants. Halftime will be highlighted by floats built and entered by each grade at RCHS, the crowning of the Homecoming Queen and introduction of her court and escorts, and entertainment by the RCHS Marching Band.

JO a. i Thursday, Harrup Starts New Position at High School Fills Assistant Pn By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Kurt Harrup, the new assistant principal it the high school, is used to coming on the scene in a school once the school year has started. At his last position as Principal of Luray High School he started in April of 1992 and worked through the 1992-93 school year. Before coming to Page County he did graduate work at Virginia Tech and has a certificate of advanced graduate study in school administration. He has completed most of the work for a doctorate in education, but does not have the degree. Most importantly he lacks the dissertation. He said that he does plan to finish work for the doctoral degree, “maybe after retirement.” Earlier he worked in elementary, middle, and high schools as a teacher, guidance counselor, assistant principal ncipal, Athletic, and principal. He lives in Luray with his wife, who is a guidance counselor at Central High Schoolin Woodstock, and a son who is a sophomore at Luray High School. They have another son completing work on a doctorate in chemistry at Emory University. He says he will continue to live in Luray, “since that is a central point for us. ” Mr. Harrup said he is happy to be in a small rural high school. “I graduated from a high school with about 500 students in eighth through twelfth grades," he said. “I like working in a smaller school because you get to know more of the kids better.” Part of his position at the high school is serving as the athletic director. He has not had such a position before since there was someone else working at that job at each of his previous high schools, but he worked closely with those Director Slots athletic directors, he said. He also has some experience as a volunteer coach. “My approach in working with any kids is to treat them like they’re my own,” he said. “You need to be fair, to be consistent, to listen and to help. Our main goal is to help them to grow, not only to learn, but to be responsible adults. We need not only to instruct them academically, but also to be models for them socially." Mr. Harrup started at the high school last Thursday, but his official duties started this Monday. For the rest of the week he will work with Larry Carter, who will leave at the end of the week to begin his work as principal of Madison County High School. Mr. Harrup said he had found a “wonderful, warm, caring atmosphere” at the high school among the staff and at the central office. Kurt R. Harrup Town Council Debates Intersection Changes Spring Mountain School Expansion Unanimously Approved By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer The intersection at Main and Middle streets was the subject of heated debate at Wednesday’s Town Council meeting. The debate began when council member Newbill Miller said, during consideration of the minutes from the September meeting, that during the public forum portion of that meeting he had “voiced opposition to the four-way stop at the post office and reducing the curve on business 211.” At a meeting last spring council voted to change the intersection, creating a four-way stop and making the turn from Main Street to Middle Street past the Trinity Episcopal Church parking lot sharper. Over the years that has been made a gradual curve by taking land from the church parking lot. Townspeople who live in the area, particularly those who live along Main Street past that intersection have expressed concern about speeding. The stop signs and sharper turn were planned to reduce that speeding. Mr. Miller said he believes the measures make the intersection “less safe" by “impeding traffic.” Planning Commission Chairman Louise Van Dort asked council to adopt a resolution requesting the Virginia Department of Transportation to take the stub street of Middle Street between the post office building and Washington House into the state system. Charles Eldred, whose family lives in Washington House, objected to any plan to allign the stub street with Middle Street across the intersection. He said the water fountain in the street, which has not worked in years, is over one of the six original town wells. “You can’t relocate a historic well,” he said. “The residents of our household object to its destruction or removal. If the highway department requires that, forget the whole deal with the highway department. That is the town’s history. You can’t destroy history in the name of so-called progress.” He maintained that there is room for two lanes of traffic on the other side of the fountain and well if parking is forbidden on the post office side of the street. Mayor Dean Morehouse said, “The issue is do we want the street in the system. There is an objection that an artifact would be destroyed. It is not a significant artifact in my eyes. It’s in disrepair, and it’s not likely to be restored. We could answer the cry to save the well as a historic element, there are lots of historic elements that are not significant artifacts...We can save it, but the well has no redeeming value, and it’s probably a liability.” Ms. Van Dort suggested the site could be commemorated with a brass plaque placed in the street. Mr. Morehouse said he thought the town could petition to have the stub street taken into the state system and still control what changes are made. Mr. Miller said, “When the state takes a road, they assume the liability. They’re not going to allow an offset street.” The council decided to table consideration of the resolution on the stub street to allow townspeople to have a say at the November meeting. Tom Zumwalt, representing the Washington Business Council, said that organization was concerned about the work on the water system extending into December with the Colonial Christmas celebration. He said they were also concerned about the barrels in the intersection during the fall tourist season. ■-^—Maacit ^goa - aaa Rappahannock News Slatt Hholo.Sharon Kilpatrick Town well sits beneath fountain. “They’re unsightly,” he said. Mr. Morehouse said the work on the water system could not be halted. “It has taken five years” to get the improvements to the system underway, he said. "These guys are doing a responsible job. They cover up their work every day.” “Could we move the barrels for the weekend?” Mr. Zumwalt asked. “I don’t think so,” Mayor Morehouse said. Council member Ray Gooch said the barrels were placed to “establish a new' traffic pattern.” He said there is no sixmonth period for repairs to the water system that wouldn’t interfere with some event in town. Phyllis Mariott, owner of the Foster-Harris House said, “It seems like the barrels are moving.” Mr. Miller agreed. Then Mayor Morehouse agreed also, saying the barrels were gradually being moved closer to the white line painted on the road surface marking where the new turn w'ill go. Ms. Van Dort said the highway department would be prepared to install the curbing in two weeks but was holding off pending a decision on the stub street. Mr. Miller suggested the council wait and hear from the people about all sides of the intersection at the November meeting. Evelyn Willis said she thought trucks w'ere having trouble negotiating the turn. “I’ve not observed that,” Mayor Morehouse said. Mr. Eldred said that trucks get See Council, Page A-8

Slate Mills Businessman Witnesses Moscow Melee Crouds Grow in Strange Street Scene By JOHN KISER * Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer II is Saturday, Oct. 2. While much of the world is riveted on the political standoff between Boris Yeltsin and Alexander Rutskoi, Muscovites are calmly going about tlieir everyday business. I had spent the day in the country visiting friends and had been dropped off in the late afternoon at Pushkin Square by my driver, Anatoly, who had given me his 25 cents worth of political wisdom during our drive. Born in Ulyanovsk, Lenin’s hometown, his survey of the political situation had been simple: “No one bejieves politicians anymore, no one Knning the country, and no one 's what to do.” He supports .Yeltsin as the lesser of two evils but believes there will be no real change until the Communists are gone. “Yeltsin won respect with the people because he tore up his party card publicly, but the whole lot are bred to the bone Communists: YeltIron Mari' had transformed himself into a Molotov cocktail, an apt metaphor for Russia today. siii, Rutskoi, Khasbulatov and the rest.” Thus spoke Anatoly. My walk from Pushkin Square tpok me past McDonald’s whose lines and attendant gawkers have provided local street merchants with a steady market: Pepsi for $1, Mars bars for 50 cents, and T-shirts — the one with Lenin’s head under the golden arches summed it all up. I made my way to the Hotel Belgrade via the New Arbat Street, formerly Kalininsky Prospect. Muscovites were enjoying the first decent weather in days, exercising their pent-up consumerism as best they could. The density of kiosks on ! the New Arbat had diminished over ‘ the past six months, and the chosen 5 few that remained were of a distinctly upscale quality with upscale ■ New York prices. ! ; Arriving at the intersection of { New Arbat and the Garden Ring, ; 200 yards from the U.S. Embassy to • my right and a quarter of a mile from i the White House, as the Russians ! call their parliament building, I en! countered a police line. Off to my left ! on the Garden Ring road near my hotel was smoke. I asked an officer what had happened. He shrugged. An explosion? You could say that. I explained that I lived down there and showed him my hotel card. I could see people were coming out of the area I wanted to enter. Could they not let me through? . No, I had to go around to the Arbat Street which paralleled the New Arbat but brought me closer to my hotel on r 'bingo I Monday 1 JACKPOT I *1000 CASH I GUARANTEE ■ Cookie Jar 700 Plus, Monday, Oct. 25 • Specials • *75 Regular - '40 I Doors Open 5:30 p.m. Food Service I Early Birds 6:45 p.m. ' Regular Game 7:00 p.m. I Winner Take All & Quickie Games | AMERICAN LEGION HALL J - Smoking & Non-Smoking Sections I 14222 Rixeyville Rd. (Rt. 229N) I Culpeper, VA I Smolensky Square across from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the new McDonald’s. The old Arbat Street, a name of Mongol origin, was celebrating its 500th birthday. It had been cleaned up since my last visit, indicating that someone, at least, was in charge of the sidewalk traffic of Moscow. A plague of vendors, drug dealers and trash had afflicted the historic old Arbat and it looked like it been temporarily put into recession. I entered the Arbat from a connecting side alley that took me past the composer Scriabin’s house and joined a crowd of people who were looking at some street entertainment. This turned out to be an “Iron Man” act. A bare chested, muscular blond man in his forties with pink Aladdinlike pantaloons was jumping up and down on shards of glass in his bare feet. Not overly impressed, I started to leave when he brought out a bunch of kitchen knives. He walked over to an onlooker and recruited him to drop the knives onto a pine plank to demonstrate their sharp tips. He then asked the man to hold the same knives as high as he could and drop them onto his stomach. The knives landed three in a row on his stomach bouncing off as if they had just hit a rubber band. This Russian “Iron Man” earned his keep in the next act. He proceeded in rapid succession to drink five pint size glasses of kerosene, walk on his hands a bit afterward to settle it in, and then lit a small kerosene-soaked rag torch, From a storage reservoir in his gullet he spewed out a fine kerosene spray onto the torch, turning himself into a human carburetor, and fuel tank at once. “Iron Man” has apparently revealed the secrets of the human fire dragons of magic lore. At least 10 times a plume of fire came from his mouth until he emptied his fuel-injected stomach. “Iron Man” had transformed himself into a Molotov cocktail, an apt metaphor for Russia today. I heard the blaring sound of rock music coming from a side street which turned out to be a mini concert in an abandoned dirt lot--probably a party for the 500th birthday celebration. I walk back to the main Arbat at the end of which there again was a police line blocking my way. “How do I get through?” I asked an officer. “Over there behind the ministry building,” he said. “Yes, but I’ve heared that before. Isn’t there a ring around the whole area?” No. He promised I could get through. He was right. I came through the alley behind the ministry that led onto Smolensky Square. There was the other end of the police line to my right and the Belgrade hotel straight ahead.

Soldiers with shields and bulletproof vests had formed their own blockade around a political demonstration of some kind. There were several hundred people circulating around the fires inside the barricades. I asked a soldier what was going on. Were these people good guys or bad guys? “Good,” he prompltly answered. He explained that earlier in the day nationalists had been allowed to have a political demonstration, but the OMON - special riot police - had roughed up some of the participants, which had led to the “explosion.” It turned out my friendly soldier was from Stravropol. He was slightly ashamed when I asked if that was not Gorbachev’s hometown. Yes, it was. His unit itonically had been brought up to Moscow to help deal with the crisis that had its roots in the political activism of one of Stavropol’s very own. Planks from the wooden sidewalks had been set aflame, and primitive barricades had been made of metal sheeting and pipe from the grand stands that had that had been constructed for what was supposed to have been a peaceful meeting on the Russian territory political rally. 'Russia is without law, without constitution. There is still one valid constitution and that is the constitution of Brezhnev/ The nationalist, Zherenovsky, was blaring away into his loudspeaker exhorting his followers to carry on the struggle. A red banner was draped over some debris that read “We are Russians-God is with us.” The nationalists had thoughtfully built an “open” barricade that provided a narrow passageway between the comer where my hotel was located and the area that w as supposedly under their control. Press cameras were freely admitted and much general milling around made it difficult to figure out who were the demonstrators and who were the onlokers. The rest of the occupied zone - about 2 acres of the Garden Ring Road from Smolenskaya Metro to Smolensky Square - was like a small battlefield after the shooing.

No one cares about the poor people. I have a pension of 20,000 rubles a month. A kilogram of meat costs 10,000 rubles. What can I do? How can people live? Everybody was better before.” We headed towards the Smolenskaya metro entrance where they was a gathering of people singing with religious fervor the Russian national anthem. The emotion with which they sang - men and women, old and young alike - made their small numbers seem unimportant. On their faces £nd in their voices was the moving expression of something beloved and painful. As we got closer to the Russian choral singers, she dissolved into mystic serenity, and I headed for another group of people. A heated debate was taking place between a young man attempting to defend “free trade” and a long-haired older man with the look of a dissipated Left-Bank artist. The older man was on the offensive. He had a slight, avuncular you’re-too-voung-to-understand demeanor. Land, and living by Christian principles were at issue. “God gave us the land, air and water. What God gave us is for everyone.

The Audit Bureau WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1993 Editorials i" I? " i ; . m Terry, Beyer; Dolan Too much of the rhetoric in this year’s statewide races for governor, lieutenant governor and attorney general has been negative, focusing on personalities rather than issues. That’s too bad, because the Democratic ticket has much to offer Virginia, both in terms of experience and in its vision for the future. Former Attorney General Mary Sue Terry, making a bid for the state’s highest office, has a breadth of experience in both her private law practice and her years as an elected official. During the deep recession that has gripped Virginia during the past few years, the Wilder-Beyer-Terry administration has cut spending and kept the state budget under control, leading Financial World magazine to rate Virginia as the best-managed state in the nation for the past two years. Ms. Terry has been at the forefront of efforts to combat drugs and crime. She established the CADRE anti-drug training program which has been emulated by other states, fought to increase penalties for drunk drivers, and supports strict regulations on the purchase of handguns. Ms. Terry’s critics have charged that she is soft on crime. The fact is that, like the rest of the country, crime is up in Virginia. That trend cannot be blamed on Ms. Terry. She has a reasonable plan to crack down on violent criminals while using high-tech methods like home incarceration to punish less dangerous offenders. This will make the streets safer, but not bankrupt the state treasury with new prison construction. Ms. Terry also plans to continue the economic development initiatives begun by her predecessors, as well as to create a publicprivate partnership through a Board of Trade that will not just seek new jobs — but will create and administer the economic development policies of the Commonwealth. Donald S. Beyer Jr., seeking a second term as lieutenant governor, has put his considerable business experience to work for Virginia. Beyer has also carried his message of personal responsibility across the state, urging Virginians to take charge of their lives and rely less on the government. Beyer says he will spearhead a review of the entire state bureaucracy, looking to streamline both programs and personnel. For those affected by such “streamlining,” both in government and t private industry, Beyer advocates retraining programs and support of new business opportunities. William D. Dolan III, a Northern Virginia attorney and former president of the Virginia Bar Association, brings 22 years of legal experience to his bid for attorney general. Dolan supports Ms. Terry’s plan for a five-day waiting period on handgun purchases, and also advocates leaving family planning decisions in the hands of the family — not the state. Dolan also supports a change in state law to allow juries to be informed about the prior criminal history of a defendant prior to sentencing. That one change, more than some of the radical reforms proposed for the justice system, would ensure that career criminals spend serious time in prison — and that first-time offenders are offered a chance at rehabilitation. Mary Sue Terry, Don Beyer and Bill Dolan will work for Virginia, and they will put Virginia to work. Political campaigns may be won on style, but effective governing requires substance. Terry, Beyer and Dolan have proven that they have the experience and expertise to govern Virginia. Wood for Delegate In the 31st District race for the House of Delegates, incumbent Democrat Jerry Wood has faced a tough campaign from Republican challenger Jay Katzen. Mr. Katzen has seemed to spend more time in Rappahannock. Both men are affable and out-going. The Rappahannock News tried unsuccessfully to get either candidate to promise to introduce a bill that would make all calls to and from the county seat in Washington toll free. If either one had done so, the choice would have been easier for us. Both candidates promise to hold the line on taxes, and both oppose the five-day waiting period for handgun purchases. Although Del. Wood comes to the abortion controversy from a pro-choice point of view, while Mr. Katzen comes from a pro-life point of view, their stands on specific proposals are not very different. Both say they would support bills requiring parental notification, a 24-hour waiting period, and giving a woman seeking an abortion information on alternatives. We prefer Del. Wood’s proposal for parental notification, w’hich would expand the list of adults who could be notified to make certain a young girl has some adult support without requiring that her parents be told. We frankly don’t suppose that any woman or girl seeks an abortion without knowing that she could instead carry the pregnancy to term and either keep the baby or give it up for adoption and without considering it for 24 hours. . Rural areas have less and less influence in the Virginia General Assembly. In the Decmocratic-controlled legislature most Republicans have even less influence than rural legislators. We support Del. Wood’s proposal to get a portion of lottery profits returned to the county for education. We believe that he is, in general, likely to be more successful in seeing that county taxpayers get some benefits from the taxes they send to Richmond, and we urge our readers to support him Nov. 2. Letters Insert Not Authorized To the Editor: As a member of the Republican Party of Virginia, a member of the Rappahannock County Republican Committee since 1978, past secretary and vice-unit chairman of the Rappahannock County Republican , Committee, past county coordinator of the campaigns of J. Kenneth Robinson, John D. Obenchain, and John W. Warner, I am writing to apologize to any readers who may have been offended by a portion of an insert placed in last week’s edition of the Rappahannock News that took a “below the belt” potshot at the lieutenant governor candidate of the Democratic party. The offensive material consisted of a reprint of a letter to the editor apparently published in The Warren Sentinel in which select portions were circled. A number of vitriolic handwritten editorial comments suggested that the Democrat candidate is “anti-Christian” and supports narcotics abuse. While I do not support, and shall not vote for, the Democratic candidate on election day, those innuendos were in extremely poor taste, unwarranted, and I do not think they are true. Moreover, the publication of this material was not sanctioned or authorized by the Rappahannock County Republican Committee. On the contrary, the committee met in September and authorized certain advertising inserts, but only after assurances were given that published material w’ould be limited to reprints of offical campaign materials issued by various Republican candidates. A single member of the committee took it upon himself to create and publish the offensive material in direct contravention of our county committee resolution. This material does not represent the official views of the candidates, the Republican Party of Virginia or the Rappahannock County Republican Committee. There are many good and positive reasons to vote for the Republican candidates this year, most of whom I believe would join me in condemning the publication of such scurrilous material. The Republican Party, founded on the Jeffersonian principle that “the government governs best which governs least,” stands for the preservation of individual liberty, limiting the certralization of power in the hands of state and federal bureaucrats, and keeping taxes as low as possible. Unfortunately, our party has in recent years become a haven for a number of misguided “whackos” whose zealotry tarnishes our principles and undermines its candidates’ chances of winning elections. It’s time for the good people that constitute the majority of the Republican Party to get their “sludge” together and send a clear message to the guttersnipes that their evangelical negativism has no place. “Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein; and he that rolleth a stone, it shall return upon him.” (Proverbs 26:27) The best way to win elections is not by spreading mean-spirited lies and innuendos about the opposition, but by articulating a positive, uplifting message that limited constitu tional government is what made this a great country, and that continued unrestrained growth of local, state and federal government spending coupled with anything-goes, centralized bureaucracy always leads to slavery and tyranny. I again apologize to any offended readers and hope that you will not let this incident dissuade you from supporting any Republican candidates for whom you might otherwise have been inclined to vote. Thankyou for the opportunity to express my views. DAVID L.

COOPER Athens, Ga. Rappahannock Heritage Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan As autumn closes in, a tranquil pond on Piedmont Farm reflects the season’s hues. Wasted Tax Dollars To the Editor: Concerning the op-ed article in the Sept. 22 Rappahannock News, regarding Superintendent Wade’s attempted closing of portions of the Skyline Drive, the following should be noted. Facing a budget shortfall, Superintendent Wade spent nearly $80,000 on road signs directing tourists to the park. These signs were co-located and remain so today, with other signs giving the same information. Meantime, the roof over the dining room at the Big Meadows Lodge appears near collapse. On a recent visit to the park, I discovered that, in the Park Service, it apparently takes six men and two very large trucks to remove a tree from the road. Having lived for the last 20 years on a mile-long mountain driveway, which runs entirely through forest, I have yet to find an instance where it takes more than “me” (1) and my “poor ol’ pickup,” to remove a fallen tree. It is obvious that the tax money continues to be wasted by bureaucrats. The waste begins well above Superintendent Wade, as I am sure he has little to say about how his money can be spent. This is due to the archaic method our federal government continues to use in dispersing money. Superindent Wade has $80,000 burning a hole in his budget which most likely could not be allocated for roof repairs, but only for road signs. The Superintendent can not even dictate the manner in which a tree will be removed, as a bureaucrat in Washington, who probably never before in his life cut down a tree, outlined the procedures for such activities. The question then for Congressman Wolf is, “When will we ever correct this horrid waste of tax dollars brought on my incompetent bureaucrats and a system which refuses to change?” Not only does it not change, it continues to grow worse. This is true in the halls of Congress where tremendous waste continues in its day-to-day operations. If we can not take care of the park land that we already have, why did the federal government purchase the Hazel-Marsh Development at the Manassas Battlefield Park at 10 times its accessed value? These are questions which need to be communicated to our representatives on a daily basis. They must be aware of an informed and concerned constituency. JOHN LEKANDER Sperryville Republican Ticket Radical To the Editor: The Allen/Farris/Gilmore ticket is not what it would have us to believe. It is obvious that the moderate conservative Republican Party of the past has been evicted by the radical extreme. As an example, consider the liberal lenient multi-billion dollar spending spree advocted for the construction of new prisons as part of Allen’s promise to end parole. If you listen, you will note that his plan is, for the most part, a reaction to crime after it has taken place, not a real crime prevention plan. Is such massive spending in the conservative tradtion? On abortion, whether you agree with Mary Sue Terry that the decision sould be made by the patient and doctor or with Allen that it should be a decision by government, Allen’s plan will certainly inject more and more government into the lives of Virginia’s families. Is this conservative? In education, Allen’s promise to remove funds from the public school system, giving them to private schools, could not come at a worse time. With tight budgets, we simply can’t take taxpayers’ money away from schools where they need every penny they can get. Is this sort of public spending for non-public schools conservative? Mary Sue Terry knows that we must live within tight fiscal restraints. That is why she, unlike Allen, has refused to promise large new expenses for taxpayers. Mary Sue Terry is the real conservative in this campaign. As she says, “I can’t out promise them but I sure can outsmart them.” She knows that there are no simple answers to complex problems. Anyone that says so is simply not being honest with the citizens of the Commonwealth. I encourage you to reject the Allen plan to represent the special interests and elect Mary Sue Terry, who will represent all of us, and do so effectively and honestly. JOHN W. NEWELL Ashland Republicans Supported To the Editor: George Allen, as Governor, will fight for legislation to reduce lenient parole for prisoners. He will also support legislation to allow juries to be informed of a convicted felon’s previous record before sentencing. Allen will work to restore integrity by prohibiting the state from granting government contracts to business in which legislators or their immediate family members have a financial interest. Allen has a proven record. He was recognized by the National Taxpayer’s Union as the “5th (among 439) most Fiscally Repsonsible Member” of the entire 102nd Congress. Allen was awarded the “Golden Bulldog Award” from the Watchdogs of the Treasury for his “efforts to eliminate wate, reduce the deficit, and contain unnecessary government spending.” Allen was also presented with the “Guardian of Small Business” award from the National Federation of Independent Business. For lieutenant governor, Mike Farris is a Constitutional lawyer dedicated to the protection of the rights of individuals. He won a unanimous victory in the U.S. Supreme Court which makes educational choice constitutionally possible. He will fight to implement choice for all parents in Virginia. Farris believes tax credits would allow parents to economic ability to choose a different public school, private school, or home school. He believes that competition would be good for the school children. Farris will w ork to improve education. Virginia ranks 16th in spending for education but only 38th in SAT scores. He w'ants to eliminate waste, like the hiring of 14,783 new staffers for 16,000 additional students between 1988 and 1990; less than 3,000 w ere teachers. Farris has shown fiscal responsibility by running a debt-free campaign. He will work to cut taxes, reduce spending, eliminate government debt, and raise the personal exemption if Virginia to match the federal level. This would mean a family of four could earn $9,200 per year tax-free (beyond the standard deducation), versus the current $3,200. . Jay Katzen can best represent the 31st District (Rappahannock, Fauquier, Warren). Katzen will work hard for families and communities. He also has a proven record on global issues while working writh the State Department, United Nations and several U.S. Embassies. Katzen is challenging Jerry Wood for the 31st seat. According to the Virginia Family Council Report Card for Virginia Legislators, Jerry Wood’s pro-family grade was only 13 percent (A grade of 100 means legislator voted pro-family 100 percent of time). It’s time to put Republicans in control of the state house — vote Republican Nov. 2! CATHY SMITH . Amissville Benefits Are Taxed To the Editor: Many Democrats still insist fhat Social Security and Railroad Recrement benefits are not taxed in Virginia. Social Security benefits are not included in income on Form ,760. However, House Bill 1116, signed by Governor Wilder April 4, 1990, provides that the “age subtraction” be reduced dollar for dollar by' SS benefits received in arriving at taxable income. So the net result is that your tax is greater in direct relationship to the amount of benefits received. rity retirement benefits has any doubts as to whether the benfits affected their 1992 state income tax, they can easily find out for themself. Here is a simple approach to use: Pull out a copy of your 1992 State Income Tax Form 760 and recompute your 1992 tax as if you received no Social Security benefits for 1992. (Simply change line 30, page 2, to show $-0- and redo the rest of the computations). If you don’t like the results you find, you can lay the blame directly on Majority Leader Richard Cranwell and the Democratic majority in the House of Delegates. During the 1992 session, House Bill 144 was amended by the Senate to eliminate Social Security benefits as a factor in determining state income tax. Del. Cranwell killed HB 144 by causing it to be referred back to his Finance Committee where no further action was taken. During the 1993 session, Sen. Hunter Andrews, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, summarily killed Senate Bill 818, which I introduced, by referring it to a subcommittee which never met. SB 818 would have eliminated Social Security benefits as a factor in determine ing state income tax. " SENATOR KEVIN MILLER If anyone receiving Social SecuHarrisonburg Supported To the Editor: The people of Virginia are about to hire the chief executive of a $16 billion industry — their state government. This executive will strongly affest our lives for the next four years. Mary Sue Terry, the Democratic candidate, has practiced law as'the head of her own firm, served as a local prosecutor, been an officer in her family farm and farm-supply business, been chairman of an independent bank, served about eight years as a member of the Virginia House of Delegates, where independent observers rated her service outstanding, and has served about 7-1/2 years as Attorney General of Virginia: As Attorney General, Terry built and directed a staff of 130 lawyers. She served essentially as general counsel of the state government. She was the responsible attorney for almost every agency of the government, learning its operation arid its problems inside out. Her fellow Attorneys General across the country chose her as their Chairman. After her first term, the people of Virginia re-elected her with 63 percent of the vote, giving her. more votes than any other candidate for statewide office has ever received. George Allen, the Republican candidate, is an ambitious young man who talks a conservative line very convincingly. He has practiced law and served about nine years in the House of Delegates and one year in the U.S. Congress. Independent observers rated his performance in these jobs as mediocre. He has never directed anything larger than his congressional staff. . - Thoughtful Virginians will Vote for Mary Sue Terry on Nov. 2. ' JANE VITRAY Vienna See Letters, Page A-5

From Page A-4 Vote Republican jfdthe Editor: *, * Elections are closer, tempers are Shorter, and minds are probably in a jwfiirl of confusion. It is truly amazing how candidates say things that ‘jSeem” to carry the correct message to the people who are going to be casting votes during elections. I'' During the recent debate beJ\£een the candidate’s for governor, JJary Sue Terry and George Allen, one couldn’t help but notice the fleeting efforts by Ms. Terry to maintain Her level of qualification for the position by slandering her opponent, Mr. Allen, for his acquaintances and associations with preachers, and accusing him of introducing religious hatred into the campaign. Enough of “ that mudslinging. The truth of the matter is that while there are some “preachers” and “religious” people who have messed up, there are many many more who have not and who will not. Yes, the publicity has hurt those of us who are honest, decent, hardworking, Christian America-loving citizens but it should not be used as a crutch by any candidate to win a political victory. n ut: vjiirisuaniiy uoes noi maKe us less of a citizen but rather it makes us better citizens. Whoever wins this election for governor of Virginia will probably find themselves in need of more than just a few prayers. Another matter that seemed to really bother Ms. Terry when she whs questioned about it was her “unmarried” state. While it should not be held against her, it certainly could become a handicap when the time comes for decisions regarding the families which make up the Virginia population. Our nation is made up of families and what happens to the family as the result of laws made by our leaders does determine what will happen to our nation. So goes the family — so goes the nation. It is very important factor in the leadership of Virginia, Ms. Terry. I urge everyone to really think about what has been said by all of the candidates for the upcoming election. Once you have weighted their words and what they plan to do for us, our children, our families — I’m confident you will agree that conservative is right and that George Allen, Mike Farris, Jim Gilmore, and Jay Katzen do have the right focus for Virginia. Let’s take Virginia back from the liberal Democrats — vote Republican! Your vote could be the most important vote cast in this election, so don’t forget! PATRICIA A. WHORTON Castleton Democrats Observed To the Editor: We are now late in the campaign, and I have made some observations of my own. I have seen Democratic candidate Mary Sue Terry go from 18 points ahead in the polls to 17 points behind Republican candidate George Allen. There are many reasons for this turn about not the least of which is George Allen’s shared values and principals with mainstream Virginia voters, but also Mary Sue’s attempts to campaign against the entire Republican ticket, several conservative ministers and possible future candidates. Mary Sue and Don Beyer have tried to run from the Clintons. Bill Dolan, Democratic candidate for Attorney General, is frantically looking for someone to hold on to so he won’t be exposed as one totally inex penenced tor the ottice he seeks. Our delegate, Jerry Wood, is running from Jerry Wood. The voters of Rappahannock are facing an election where two incumbent candidates have previous voting records. Don Beyers’ Senate tie-breaking votes have been anti-business, antifamily, pro big government, and liberal on criminals. . . Jerry Wood’s record got him a rating of 13 percent by the Virginia Family Foundation. Nine delegates (all Republicans) received 100 percent ratings with our previous Del. Andy Guest getting 73 percent for bis votes. In the Senate, Kevin Miller received 88 percent for his voting record. The criteria used for making these evaluations were the Candidates’ votes on spending bills, taxes, education, parental rights, and the expansion of government into our daily lives. . Wood’s record is totally unacceptable for a community such as Rappahannock to tolerate. We need to elect Jay Katzen to the House of Delegates this year. I feel confident he will follow in the balanced approach to representation that Del. Guest used when he represented the .31st District. Jay is a hard worker who with his . wife has successfully raised three sons and has the desire to bring sanity back to Virginia government. I can’t say he will net 100 percent two years from now, but he will be nearer the top. Jay will need your vote, and he needs a decent governor, lieutenant governor, and attorney general to lead the attack on out of control spending and crime. So when you go to the polls vote against radical extremism and vote for Allen, Farris, Gilmore and Katzen. RON FRAZIER Amiss ville Opposing J. Wood To the Editor I am writing to inform voters of the 31st Delegate District why they should not re-elect Jerry Wood as their state delegate. First, Mr. Wood voted against the parents of the 31st District when he voted against the parental notification bill (HB 958). This bill would require that one parent be notified before an abortion could be performed on his or her minor daughter. Out of 100 delegates, Mr. Wood was one of only 35 who voted against the bill. According to the Gallop Poll (June 1992), 71 percent of Americans support parental consent/notification before a minor can have an abortion. Supporters of parental notification note that in other states where similar laws have been enacted, the teen pregnancy, birth, and abortion rate have fallen dramatically. For example, Minnesota experienced a 32 percent decline in teen pregnancies, a 23.4 percent reduction in teen births, and a 40 percent decrease in teen abortions — within 18 months of enactment of a similar law. Proponents also argue that minor girls need the help and support of a parent to handle this crisis. Testimony before committees has revealed that girls sometimes regret hasty/abortion decisions, and periodically experience complications. Dr. James C. Anderson, a Virginia emergency rodm physician, testified that he treats girls who are having complications from legal abortions. These include fever, infections, severe pelvic pain, and unstable blood , pressure. Ironically, the parents must give consent for treatment, although they may not have known about the abortion. The parents are also responible for the medical bills and will be involved with potential long-term complications. Dr. Anderson says that since parents must give consent for all other surgery performed on minors, it is illogical that the state of Virginia would regard this surgery as sacrosanct. Second, Mr. Wood followed the liberal spending habits of the bereaucrats in Richmond by voting to authorize the state (our taxes) to build a $19 million Lottery office building in downtown Richmond. Opponents noted a 25 percent vacancy rate in commercial office space in downtown Richmond. How can Mr. Wood justify a $19 million waste of our money? It’s time for Mr. Wood’s chickens to come home to roost. For these reasons, I am supporting Jay Katzen for delegate. DAVID SISSION Midland Honest Leadership? To the Editor: George Allen, the Republican candidate for Governor of Virginia, labels his TV spots with the line: “A Honest New Generation of Leadership.” One of his commercials carries a heavy attack on Mary Sue Terry, the Democratic candidate, blaming her for an increase in violent crime while she was Attorney General. Allen knows that in Virginia the Attorney General is not responsible for prosecuting violent crime. That jpb belongs to the local Commonwealth Attorneys. When a man brags of how honest he is, hold onto your wallet! AUGUSTUS C. JOHNSON Syria Say Whatf To the Editor: Jerry Wood denies that he said what he said (Letters, Oct. 13). It’s no matter; Jerry says a lot of things. Jerry is a friendly sort, and he likes to please people, voters especially. If he knows what you want to hear, that’s what he will tell you. Inconsistency doesn’t concern Jerry. He holds no strong beliefs. No great issues burn in his heart. Except one: keeping his job. He waited 25 years to get a seat in the House, and he just wants to hold on to it. But things have a way of catching up. Jerry, we hardly knew ye. ROBERT M. DARBY Woodville Don't REC County To the Editor: The Rappahannock Electric Cooperative (REC) is still very much considering building a high voltage power line and cutting a 100-foot swath through Rappahannock County. While REC has discussed possible routes form Sperryville to the Rixley Substation outside Culpeper, no definitive route has been decided upon, therefore, no property owner in that corridor, or the rest of the county, should feel confidant that they will not be affected by the power line. In fact, all Rappahannock residents lose if the power line is built. It is critical that residents of Rappahannock County inform REC, the State Corporation Commission (which will have the ultimate say over whether there is a need for the line), and the Board of Supervisors (who, thankfully oppose the line) of their opposition to this power line. Please write the following individuals and let them know: • that you strongly oppose the power line; • that there are alternatives to building the new line through Rappahannock County; and • that you resent that Rappahannock residents will have to suffer the power line’s ill effects and get no benefits from the new line so that Culpeper residents can benefit from the line. The addresses of the involved parties are: • Rappahannock Electric Cooperative, P.O. Box 7388, Fredericksburg, VA 22404-7388; Lee S. Estes, Chairman; Cecil E. Viverette Jr., President; William A. Alphin, Region One Director. • State Corporation Commission, P.O. Box 1197, Richmond, VA 23209; The Honorable Theodore V. Morrison Jr., Chairman; The Honorable Preston C.

HAROLD J, CREEL, JR. wooavuie Terry's Real Record To the Editor: The Republican candidate for Governor of Virginia is running a TV ad saying that when a politician is running for another office, we should ask her what she has done in her past offices. Fair enough, let’s look at just a few of Mary Sue Terry’s accomplishments. In the House of Delegates, Terry, now the Democratic candidate for Governor, was the leader in Virginia’s fight on drunken driving, forcing the blood level for drunkenness down to 0.10 percent. She was chief sponsor of a law that raised the drinking age from 18 to 21. She developed the highly successful CADRE program to combat children’s drug use. Seventeen other states have copied this program, which won an award from the National Council of State Governments. As Attorney General, Mary Sue Terry proposed 83 bills that became law, a record in modern Virginia history. She forced the Ford Motor Co. to recall 11,000 ambulances across the country and fix them so that they would not burst into flames. She required insurance companies to base their rates in Virginia on Virginia’s experience, not the nation’s, saving millions of dollars for Virginians. She convicted political extremist Lyndon LaRouche, nine of his followers and ten corporations of defrauding the elderly of millions of dollars. Her office handled about 5,000 active cases at any one time; it won eight out of 10 cases before the U.S. Supreme Court, the best record for any Attorney General in 40 years. Terry’s Republican opponent has no accomplishments, legislative or otherwise, to compare with hers.

Panther Football Fun; Good Learning Year By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer The Rappahannock Panther youth football team finished the regular season Saturday without a win, but coach Tony Hoffman feels it has been a very successful “learning year” for his young squad. The team will face the Culpeper Fighting Bulls in a playoff Saturday in Culpeper. “We had a lot of young players,” Coach Hoffman said. “They have learned a lot this year, and we can build on that for next year.” He expects most of this year’s players to return for the season next year. He notes that many of his players have never played organized football before while players in Fauquier County start playing football when they are 6 and Culpeper players start when they are 8. Although leagues in those counties will accept players from Rappahannock only a few of his players had that experience. By helping to organize the Skyline Travel League this year, Mr. Hoffman has made it possible for a Rappahannock team to be formed. The league for players from 12 to 15 years old was mostly started from scratch. The Culpeper team had equipment, but the other three teams, including the Rappahannock team had to purchase new equipment. The players pay a $50 registration fee, but the cost to put a player on the field is about $450, he explained. The league had some help from sponsors but the players and fans have also engaged in various fundraising activities, and those activities will continue, he said. Coach Hoffman hopes that the youth league will eventually lead to Skyline Playoffs Begin Saturday The Skyline Travel Football League opens its playoffs Saturday at YoweU Meadow Park in Culpeper. At 10:15 a.m., the Culpeper Fighting Bulls (6-0) will play the Rappahannock Panthers (0-6). At 12:15 p.m., the Southern Fauquier Storm (3-3) will play the Warrenton Running Rebels (3-3). The Finals will be Saturday, Oct. 30. a high school football team. “We are trying to show that there is interest in football,” he said. “We had a lot of people really behind us and supporting it.” Among the backers was a cheerleading squad coached by Linda Dodson. Mrs. Dodson said that her squad of 14 girls, like the players were 12 to 15 years old. She said many of the girls were really shy when they first tried cheerleading, but they have had fun and the experience has helped them overcome their shyness.

Mike Grimsley was 16th at 17:58, Mark Jenkins 29th at 18:37, Mike Wolfe 73rd at 21:08, and Nathan Flinchum 89th at 24:01.

Out of the nine teams competing in the district meet, the top 15 boys, top 15 girls and top four teams will go on to the regional meet, which will be held at Piedmont Community College in Charlottesville on October 27. 19 girls’ basketball Coach Leake believes that our varsity Lady Panthers should have w'on their game against Page County on October 12. Following a successful first half, in which Rappahannock scored 15 points to Page’s nine points, the lady Panthers apparently became too overconfident and scored only one point to Page’s 16 points in the third quarter. Due mostly to missed shots, our team fell to the Page team for a final score of 44-32. Rappahannock’s star player was Leah Marlett, w'ho scored 12 points and completed eight rebounds. The junior varsity team also lost. The next home varsity game will be played on Thursday, October 21 versus StonewTall Jackson. Real Estate fi Eileen M.

►Council From Page A-l around the corner from Middle Street to Main Street beside The Inn, which is tighter than the proposed turn from Main Street to Middle Street around the church parking lot. “What is council’s pleasure?” Mayor Morehouse asked. “Should we accelerate putting in improvements?” Member Mark Bailey said he did not like the stop signs but agreed there is a speeding problem. “I feel it is a law enforcement problem,” he said. Mayor Morehouse made a motion to ask VDOT to go ahead and install the improvements except for the stub street. The motion passed with Morehouse, Mr. Gooch, Brad Fisher and Janice Moffett voting for the motion. Mr. Miller voted against it, and Mr. Bailey abstained. Mr. Fisher said the work on the water system will not be a problem for the Colonial Christmas weekend, since the company will be finished installing the lines in the center of town and working on the lateral streets by then. Earlier the council approved an amendment to the special use permit for Spring Mountain School. All current restrictions will continue but the school will be allowed to use more rooms within the building and to take up to 60 students. The council met in executive session with attorney Frank Reynolds to discuss pending and potential litigation and the acquisition of real property. No action was taken. Patients' Voices Not Yet Heard Answers Will Determine Success of Reform B- DR. GEORGE E. BROMAN Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Like most of my patients I watched our President outline his six principles to reform health care in this country. Like President Clinton, we all can agree that the health care system in America is ailing. As practicing physicians, doctors are trained to cure what’s ailing, and we intend to work side-by-side with the President and with our lawmakers in Virignia to cure the ills in the way health care is delivered. There’s someone in this debate over health care reform, however, who has yet to be heard, and that’s the patient. This debate affects every Virginian — every American. It will be the most expensive social initiative since the New' Deal. Patients must be heard, and my patients will have quite a few questions after hearing the President’s speech about the way their health care may be changed. 1) “Will I get the health care I need?” It’s very important that my patients feel secure that the health care they need will be available to them. It’s essential that this be guaranteed in the President’s plan. My patients will not settle for second rate care wrhen it comes to their health. We have to guard against putting dollars ahead of the needs of my patients. 2) “Will it cost me more than it costs me now?” The biggest unknown in the President’s plan is what it will cost and who’s going to pay the bill. We all agree that health care costs too much now. To pay thousands of dollars a day for a hospital stay is exorbitant. Insurance claim forms are hard for me and my employees to understand, not to mention how confusing they must be to many patients. If it’s not an insurance company adminstrator looking over my shoulder as I practice medicine, it’s a lawyer. President Clinton seems to recognize these concerns. Hopefully, the system will get better, and physicians across Virginia are committed to see to it that it does. We have to make sure, though, that the cure is not worse than the disease itself. We have to guarantee that things will be better in the new system, and that reform will not cost my patients more. 3) “Can I go to my own doctor?” It’s important for my patients to be able to see me if they need to. The President recognized the importance of this issue. Some Virginians, like state employees, already know that this may not be so easy under a new system. The concept of managed care, however, often means that someone that you have never met will develop a list of doctors whom you have never met, and require you tQ see physicians from that list. Insurance companies tell us that this saves money. What they don’t tell us is that it also creates insecurity. It’s not comforting to be told that you have to see a doctor you don’t know, especially when you’re perfectly pleased with your own doctor whom you may have seen for years. We physicians and the President seemingly agree that it’s important for our patients to know that they can continue to see their own doctor. Ther are many other things that will be discussed over the next year or so about the President’s plan and the many alternatives that will be offered to it. Physicians will be a part of that discussion, both nationally and in Virginia. Patients must to be a part of that discussion, too. Patients and their physicans have worked together to cure illnesses before, and we will do it again in this health care reform debate. The three questions I raise here go to the very heart of the President’s plan. If they are answered correctly, the plan will work. If they are not, the plan will fail. It’s important for everyone that health care reform be successful. It’s a matter of life and health for us all. Trooper G.T.

Utilizing f Residual i Nitrogen f By KENNER LOVE Culpeper soil and Water Conservation District Droughty conditions during thp summer reduced com yields in many areas of the Northern Piedmont. Significant amounts of residual nitrogen from pervious fertilizer applications should be available in thp upper soil horizons for small grain crops. * Fields that are likely candidate^ are the ones that received high levels of fertilizer, manure, or sludge nitrogen and have produced low yields. * Small grain crops can be used tb conserve soil and utilize residual soil nitrogen. If com is to be planted in the same fields in 1994 the small grain can take up the residual nitrogen and store it for the next year$ com crop. The nitrogen will be released once the cover crop in incorporated in the soil or killed for crop residue use. Small grains should bb planted as soon as possible after thf com is harvested to ensure the maximum amount of residual nitrogen is utilized by the small grain. » Small grains grown for cash cab also effectively utilized residual nitrogen. Pre-plant nitrogen may be omitted if significant levels of residual nitrogen are available in the surface horizons. Fields should b£ tested for nitrogen levels with nitrogen testing kits to determine the amount of available nitrogen. Since nitrogen can quickly move out cjf surface soil horizons with rainfall, the test should be conducted just before planting. ' ‘ Significant levels of residual soO nitrogen exist in many fields. Careful management using small grain crops and soil nitrate testing can help growers to effectively utilize this resource and protect water quality. The Culpeper Soil and Water Conservation , District offers a BMP Cost Share Program which enables farmers to receive and incentive payment to plant small grain cover crops for nutrient management.

Community News Obituaries Real Estate Classifieds WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20,1993 Children Cherished at Spring Mountain School By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock News StalT Writer "Spring Mountain School is the best kept secret in Rappahannock County,” claims Jan Makela of Amissville. Her son Josh, 4, is enrolled in the nursery there. “Josh can’t wait to go to school in the morning. He has no separation anxiety at all. I have found Spring Mountain School to be a very warm and nurturing place.” Spring Mountain School was started as a play group in the home of Bethany and Arthur Craig in Sperryville in the spring of 1987. Now it is a Waldorf-type school located in the old Washington High School on Mt. Salem Avenue in Washington. The school has an enrollment of 30 students, up from 10 students in the fall of 1991. Last week Ms. Craig approached the Washington Town Council and asked for permission to increase the enrollment limit from 40 to 60 and received approval. Bethany Craig is a very dedicated educator. Her background includes a degree in teaching grades K-12, substitute teaching, and employment at a day care center and the Child Care and Learning Center-She has several duties at Spring Mountain: President of the Board, nursery school teacher, and office worker. Most days of the week her nursery school students play in a sandbox which is in her classroom. Some carry large whelk shells full of water and pour it into the sand. Others transfer some of the sand and play with it on top of small tree stumps nearby. This of course makes a mess, but no one is admonished or asked to clean up. Teachers in this school do not scold or even raise their voices; they prefer to get at the root of the child’s problem by conversing with them quietly and listening. This method must work here. There was not one child out of control or in need of discipline. Everyone seems to work well together, and there is a sense a deep respect for the teachers and students alike. The first Waldorf school was designed by Rudolf Steiner, and opened in Germany in 1919. Steiner was asked to design the school by Emil Molt, who desired a school which would encompass the whole human being, including his spirituality, not just the body. According to a pamphlet on Waldorf education provided by Spring Julia Craig, front, Ryan McPherson, Andrew Kohler and Josh Makela play with sand in the classroom. Mountain School, Steiner felt that people had a much too materialistic view of the world and that this was harmful to peace and harmony. His theory of education took into account the nurturing of a being’s physical, intellectual, moral, emotional and spiritual needs. Waldorf education places as much emphasis on art, music and handicrafts as on reading, writing and arithmetic. Spring Mountain School follows these guidelines. The children spend much time on activities other than the basic three. Each child will learn how to knit, sing, sew, model with beeswax, paint, dance, read music, play the recorder in early grades and another musical instrument in later grades, work with wood, and more. Beth Craig stated, “Everything I had read about Waldorf education resonated with what I knew to be true with my son’s development. This seemed the best way to go for my son.” You will find no textbooks in this school. Students construct their own workbooks, interspersed with art. The act of putting together the workbook is just as much a learning experience as the studying of it later on in the classroom, according to Paige Noel, who teaches the older children. There are no written tests in this school. Students are tested verbally every day. At least twice a year there are parent-teacher conferences, at the beginning and middle of the school year. Conferences can also be scheduled as needed either by the teacher or parent. Each grade begins the day with a “circle” attended by all students and their teacher. In this circle, many experiences can take place: singing, dancing, poetry, free-form movements, or games. A candle is lit to signify unity. It will burn until the class leaves the building for recess or a nature w alk. In the nursery school classroom the children have a lot of hands-on experience. After the sandbox episode, everyone washed up and ate snacks on a table set with cloth placemats and fresh flowers. Next came the big excitement for the day, making applesauce from apples the children had picked themselves. There was a wonderful scent of the apples cooking all morning in the classroom, and the kids could hardly wait their turn to “squish" them into applesauce. Actually, they used a food mill, and each had a turn. Eyes grew large when they saw' the applesauce they had made. These children also make yeast bread once a week to take home with them, and soon they will be churning their own butter with cream from Miriam Harris of Jordan River Farm.

She moved here from Richmond where she taught crafts and creative movement. Her son, who now attends the third grade at Spring Mountain, began in a Waldorf school in Richmond. Ms. Day believes that a lot of the philosophy of Waldorf schools makes sense, and she and her son are both happy to be involved in one. As with the other classes, art is very prevalent in Ms. Day’s class. “The process of making art is a great tool for learning,” she said, more important than the piece of art itself. In Ms. Day’s class the children make bread dough sculptures and masks, take nature walks, sing, play house, recite poetry and dance. Paige Noel has been with Spring Mountain since the fall of 1990. Ms. Noel previously was in charge of the children’s library in Front Royal and has an A.A. degree in early childhood education. She teaches a class with one first grader and four third graders. They all share the same classroom and several lessons, but not all. While the third graders are working on their workbooks, the first grader may be working on some sewing at the same time. Ms. Noel stated, “As a teacher, I learn much more about the human experience. Teaching at Spring Mountain has been very nurturing for me.” She has a great intimacy with her students with such a small class. Skyler Walker and Lakota Coon watch as their teacher, Ms. Day demonstrates how to make a mask. In the lower grades, expression of the imagination is foremost, then comes written expression. Grimm’s Fairy Tales are studied in the first grade, Aesop's Fables and saints in the second grade, then creation. The Bible and world literature in the third grade. Handicrafts are taught once a week, art every day, housebuilding in the fall, and farming in the spring. The grade teacher follows her students all the way through the eighth grade, when the students then change over to different teachers for different subjects. School hours for the nursery at 9 a.m.-l p.m. For kindergarten and the grades, hours are 9 a.m.-2 p.m. Costs range from $840 per year for two days in the nursery per week to $3400 per year for children attending grades one and higher full time. Spring Mountain is planning an exciting Halloween party for students and faculty during the day on October 29. They will enjoy hearing and telling stories, bobbing for apples, singing, listening to and playing music, eating goodies, and exploring a crafts bazaar. Elementary School Highlights Events By DEBORAH FINCHUM » Rappahannock News Contributing Writer ‘ The students and teachers of Rappahannock County Elementary School have started the 1993-94 . school year with many exciting and educational activities. Kindergarten rooms have been -ve£y bright the first month of school !as the children study colors. Kindergarten rooms also look differnt because of their newly formed developmentally based curriculum. The curriculum continues to maintain the high standards of learning .but'.more emphasis is put on the • process of learning. " Teachers and students are involved and excited about their learning - as shown by Kindergarten teacher Marti Cannon when she exuberantly popped to her doorway looking for someone with whom to share a student’s success. Her students were “playing” with toothfpicjss. A girl had spelled her entire nanie using toothpicks. Try it, it’s not as easy as it sounds. Fun? Yes. Learning? Definitely! •first graders have been seen outside with bags gathering signs of fall to continue their studies on Harvest Time. A class full of Johnny Appleseeds, pots and all, traveled to the nature area in the back of the scliqol and planted apple seeds on Johnny Appleseed Day. Honored guests visited first grade classrooms. Grandparents were invited to >isit their grandchildrens’ classrooms in celebration of Grandparents’ Day. They were entertained with a story that the children read to them and a snack prepared and served by the students. Tecldy Bears were visitors, too. They enjoyed bear activities with their owners. Ted E. Ruskpin took the teacher’s place during story time. Some very interesting first grade ecosystem science projects are on display in the front hall show case. Drop by and see them. Second graders have started the new year with a splash as they delve in underseas study. The smell of tuna fish drifted down the halls as they culminated their unit with a seafood feast. Neighborhood and community drawings show that second graders are learning about their surroundings. The drawings were so realistic that parents were able to identify their own home in the drawings. Third grade classes have been reading Amelia Bedelia stories, exploring ocean life, and studying apples. Some most unusual ocean creatures have been spotted on the third grade hall-so beware. Fourth graders have learned about rocks and minerals, Virginia, and writing letters. Computers play a big part in their education this year; however, they use their textbooks as reference and resource tools. Yes, fourth grade still does use books. The fourth grade classes attending the Virignia State Fair in Richmond. Not only did they enjoy tasty “fair food” but they saw many of the industries of Virignia which were represented. They especially enjoyed seeing the animals, the pizza garden, and the souvenirs. The fifth grade science classes have been studying the structure and function of plants. Officer Brown from the Rappahannock County Sheriffs Department has begun the DARE program in fifth grade. DARE is a drug prevention program which tries to prevent the use of drugs through education about drugs and their effects. Fifth grade social studies classes are concluding an extensive an fascinating study on family histories. The purpose was for the students to make a connection between themselves and the history of their country. Each student questioned family members about their ancestors. Some discovered that they were related to famous people which they had read about in their history book. It was discovered why their ancestors had made the move from their native land and that many names had been “Americanized” when they came here. Even though not every student was related to a “famous” American each shows great pride in their own heritage. The fifth, sixth, and seventh grade gifted/talented students look forward to their visit to the Holocaust Museum, Nov. 4. The sixth and seventh graders have studied WWII and have background information which will be helpful during their visit. The fifth graders have busily been gathering information on Germany’s role in the war and circumstances leading to the Holocaust. Sixth grade English classes wrote, shared and displayed stories about their best summer memory. They listened to the story “Tuck Everlasting” and have produced many drawings of the story setting. Mrs. Lee’s sixth grade Reading class has been doing a study unit on inventions and great inventors. Now the students are working on their own inventions to present to the class.

Committee Plans Library Schedule By BOB SCOTT Kappahannock News Contributing Writer Once a month, at ten in the morning, a group of volunteers gathers to critique the most recent “Friday at the Library" program, comparing the audience size and response, evaluating what went right, considering what could be improved and planning, scheduling and making arrangements fpr a variety of future programs. It is the Library Program Committee, increasingly aware of responsibility to provide meaningful opportunities to community audiences about the cultural and educational mission it is serving. The committee has decided upon program subjects through February of next year and has tentatively discussed other program ideas that could provide continuity for the “Friday at the Library” series until the Summer hiatus. How could we successfully follow the Civil War or the Fox Hunt that follows the hounds? It was decided to try to overcome “computer illiteracy” by helping the audience to understand some basic computer language, to become familiar with simple computer vocabulary and to have the opportunity for “hands on” exposure to the new “public access” library cataloguing system currently being programmed for community users at the Rappahannock Library. I The speaker for the November program, a primary “technical resource” for this library application, is Jim Small, a computer programmer for Blueridge Technologies in Flint hill who will describe and demonstrate the library’s new computerized cataloguing system. He will be supported by the library staff who have been working for months to transfer the card file to the electronic “public access” inventory and will help demostrate the computer hardware with visual display. There will be time for questions and a discussion period prior to the usual refreshments. So come to the library and “Meet the Computer” at 8 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 5. As alwasy this unique experience is free to those attending. The December program, set for the second Friday, the 10th, due to other community programs, is both educational and entertaining. The theme is “Christmas the World Over.” A group of foreign exchange students will describe how the festive season is celebrated in their native lands, revealing both traditional differences and similarities. The January program will feature Bruce Sloane who, prior to his recent tenure as editor of the Rappahannock Neu's wrote about the Luray Caverns. The subject will be “Spelunking,” — exploring and studying the nature and lore of caves.

The Inaugural Great Meadow Polo match will feature Joe and Charlie Muldoon, known for building and operating the Potomac Polo Club in Potomac, Md. as well as Qary Leonard, a veteran Virginia polo star and captain of the Middleburg Polo Club. . . “Arena polo is faster and closer to spectators than grass polo,” said ■Peter Arundel, who has spearheaded the polo project. “Because the enclosure is much smaller than the traditional grass field, a player needs only one or tow ponies and the crowd can more easily follow the game,” he said. The arena measures 150 feet wide by 300 feet long, about one third the size of a grass field. Gates open at 1 p.m. and the polo match begins at 2 p.m. The public is invited to come early and spend a colorful fall afternoon tailgating with friends and family while enjoying polo at Great Meadow.

Virginia Apple Products Available By HELEN W. SMITH ' Extension Agent, Home Economics Virginia’s climate is ideal for growing apples - warm days, cool nights, and rich soil nurtured by consistent rainfall enable our state to grow many crisp, juicy varieties. Red and Golden Delicious, Stayman, Winesap, Rome, Jonathan, and York are just some of the varieties that prosper here. Due to the abundance, diversity and flavor of fresh apples in Virginia, major companies have developed thriving business processing apples into such popular items as apple juice, apple cider, apple sauce, apple pie filling, apple butter, and frozen apple slices. These products are known nationwide for their quality and can be found on your store shelves under various brand names. On a smaller scale, many state apple growers process locally grown apples into cider and apple butter for sale at local roadside markets and specialty stores. The natural sweetness and freshness of Virginia apple products make them a consistent favorite on shopping lists for use straight from the package and in many mouthwatering recipes. And did you know...a half-cup serving of unsweetened applesauce contains no fat and only about 60 calories. To make it even more appetizing, try this on for size. The next time you reach for your favorite cake mix, just grab a jar of applesauce and leave the cooking oil on the shelf. Use apple in any cake mix instead of oil for a health alternative. A one-third cup of applesauce instead of oil will save 648 calories and 72 grams of fat! On Your Way To Five A Day Today’s consumers are seeking lighter, healthier, more convenient foods to fit their active lifestyles. Processed apple products make quick, healthy, invigorating drinks, snacks, side dishes, topping, and desserts in an assortment of styles and sizes to suit every taste. A quick trip to the supermarket will find a variety of apple products on display. HOME ECONOMICS Look for... Applesauce-plain, chucky, or seasoned with spices, in the jar or individual-servings packs. Apple Chips-great snacks with several flavors to choose from. Apple Butter-an all time, oldtime favorite. Apple Slices-enjoy the convenience of this already prepared ingredient. Apple Juice-a popular thirst quencher any time of the day. Sparking Apple Cider-with a touch of elegance, it’s refreshing any time. Recipes Using Applesauce If you want to try using applesauce to replace some of the oil in baked goods, try one of the following recipes. The Whole Wheat Applesauce Cake is taken from the American Heart Association Cookbook, and the recipe for Applesauce Gingerbread is from the Virginia Apple Commission. The third recipe is an easy way to make apple butter using homemade or canned applesauce if you don’t have a large copper kettle and the time and manpower to make it outside “the old-fashioned way.” Whole Wheat Applesauce Cake or Cupcakes 1/2 cup oil 3/4 cup granulated brown sugar 1 cup applesauce 1 1/2 cups unsifted whole wheat flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon cinnamon Oil and flour an 8-inch rounds of square baldng pan, or muffin tins. Cream the oil and sugar together and mix in the applesauce and baking soda. Add flour and cinnamon, blending thoroughly. Pour the batter into pan, or make individual cakes in muffin tins. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes for an 8-inch cake, about 20 minutes for cupcakes. Apple Sauce Gingerbread 1/2 cup apple juice (or skim milk) 1 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup molasses 1/2 cup fat-free egg product (like Egg Featers) or 3 egg whites, beaten 1 cup apple sauce 21/4 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking soda 2 teaspoons ground ginger 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 large apple (Rome, Beauty, Stayman, or Winesap), peeled, cored and chopped fine. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and lightly spray a 7 x 11-inch glass baking dish with oil. In a large bowl, beat together the apple juice, sugar, molasses, fat-free eggs and apple sauce.

Most are easy to grow and care for but, most importantly, many have wonderful fragrances. Herbs make beautiful, groundcovers and interesting landscape plants. The trend towards smaller lots makes it necessary to get the most out of increasingly smaller spaces. Herbs used as groundcovers make that possible by providing practical as well as aesthetic benefits. In general, herbs need less water and fertilizer, and some are almost immune to pests and diseases. Because they require less time and effort, herbs can be very useful in the landscape. The herbs listed here are a few that are particularly useful. Thej have good habit and appearance with little or no maintenance. ? Some Useful Herbs for Landscapes Lady’s-mantle (Alchemilla vul garis) - Grows approximately 15 inches high by 12 inches wide and tolerates full sun or partial shade with moist soil. A hardy perennial with handsome 3-to-4-inch leathery leaves that collect water droplets which sparkle in the sun. Small greenish-yellow flowers form in July. Lady’s-mantle is often used an edging for perennial borders or walkways. Roman Chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile) - Growing 4 inches high by 12 inches wide, chamomile is a fragrant perennial, sweetly fruity, with bright green foliage and small daisy-like flowers. Chamomile forms a dense mat that withstands drought and occasional mowing. Sweet Woodruff (Galium odoratum) - Grows 8 inches high and has an unlimited spreading capability. Sweet woodruff prefers full shade and likes moist, well-drained soil containing orgainic matter. Deep green leaves form star-shaped whorls around the stems. It blooms in May and June with clusters of white flowers. When it is dry, it has a fragrance like new-mown hay. Catmint (Naptea mussinii) 7 Grows 1 foot high and wide and is best suited for full sun and moist, well-drained soil. It forms a delicate textured, spreading clump of gray green foliage with a sharp fragrance and lavender-blue flowers in June and July. Creeping Thyme (Thymus spp) - Grows 4 inches high by 12 inches wide. These hardy perennials form carpets of soft, fragrant foliage They prefer full sun and w’ell drainei soil. Their fragrances makes them ideal for planting among stepping stones, along a path and in the crevices of a stone wall or pavement.
