At last month’s meeting Brian Ross, appeared before the WSA and asked to reserve 7 1/2 for a building he plans to construct on property that is now the ballfield next to High on the Hog. Mr. Ross said his building will have a health foods store with deli counter downstairs and living quarters for himself and his family upstairs. In addition the downstairs will have space for a physical therapists office, a hair cuttery and a separate office space. \ Mr. Ross and his wife Raye own the Mountainside Market in Washington in a building they rent from Roger Batchelder. WSA member Carson Johnson wondered if Mr. Ross really needed to reserve so many EDUs, a measure the authority uses meaning “equivalent to a dwelling unit.” Most municipal systems provide both water and sewer and meter the water to determine a customer’s bill. Since the Sperryville plant treats sewage but does not provide water, another method of charging customers for the service had to be determined. A residence is charged for one EDU. Apartments are charged one for each unit. Most businesses are charged a minimum of two, with extra charges for those that have restaurant seating or a larger area. Mr. Ross said he needed the guaranteed EDUs in order to get a building permit. With the WSA action, they are reserved for six months. If he is not ready to hook up at the end of six months, he can request an extension or agree to start paying the monthly charge if another extension is unlikely. Next Tom Taylor asked to reserve three EDUs for property he has a verbal contract to purchase. He came to the WSA to get guidance on when to actually apply to reserve the EDUs. WSA members advised him to go ahead and ask to reserve them since it does not cost anything. The WSA agreed to reserve three EDUs for Mr. Taylor. Currently the WSA does not really know how much excess sewage capacity it has. The plant is licensed for 55,000 gallons per day and usually operates with between 17,000 and 18,000 gallons. However, several customers are paying for EDUs but not using them, or producing minimal waste for the authority to handle. Any of those houses and businesses are entitled to the full use of their EDUs. Finally the WSA had a letter from Paul Baldwin asking for a six month extension of his reserved EDU for a dwelling in the village of Sperryville. He wrote that bad weather had kept him from constructing the house. The WSA agreed to a six-month extension. Earlier the authority heard a report from John Orr See WSA, Page A-6 Town Council Elections Draw Several Candidates By CINDY MAHAN and SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock N*w« Staff Writer* There should be a hot election for Mayor of Washington, town treasurer and the Town Council this May. ; Mayor Dean Morehouse has decided to run for re-election, and he will be opposed by Stewart Willis, who has not previously sought town elective office. Louise van Dort will be running for treasurer of the town. Tomas L. Zumwalt has filed to oppose her. Neither has previously run for elective office in town. Eight people will be vying for the five seats on the town council. Newbill Miller and Janice Moffett are the only holdovers from the current council. The six other names on the ballot will be Doris Critzer, Steve Critzer, Reinhardt Lynch, Florence r Tupper, Charles Eldred and Mary Updike. Mr. Lynch and Mr. Eldred have previously run for seats on the council but been unsuccessful. Mr. Morehouse had said that he was undecided on whether or not to seek re-election. When he filed Tuesday, he said that he had received “a bunch of calls over the weekend” asking him to run again. “That tipped the decision,” he said. “It was pretty gratifying to have that. People felt I had done a reasonable job.” [ He said the main issue for the council in the next four years will be “the failing septic systems.” In the past two terms he felt the town should work first for a “safe water supply.” Now that work is nearing completion on improvements to the water system that should make “safe water” a reality, Mr. Morehouse said, ‘The next thing is a sewer system.” Col. Willis said he decided to seek office to get “new blood into the system.” He said he will be retiring from his full-time job working on energy contracts with TRW in Merrifield, and that will enable him to give more time to town business. Col. Willis said the town should be “forever grateful” to Mr. Morehouse and treasurer Brad Fisher for “the work they’ve done.” However, he said Mr. Morehouse “has been away from town so much, it’s appropriate that somebody living here should be the mayor.” Write-in votes for all these offices are acceptable also, and a write in candidate could be successful in an election with such a small electorate. The election will take place on Tuesday, May 3. j I Kappanannocit incws Man moto/Miaron Kilpatrick The top section is neither falling nor floating. It is being held by a guy wire to another pole across U.S. 522. The bottom section lies on the ground. To the right of the leaning middle section, Potomac Edison workers prepared a hole for a new pole. Accident In Sperryville Causes Power Outage A tractor trailor took out a line crossing Route 1002 in Sperryville, breaking a power pole on U.S. 522 and causing Sperryville and points west to lose power for most of the day Tuesday. Gary Charles Martin of New Holland, Pa., was driving a tractor trailer owned by Raven Division Inc. of Lancaster, Pa. traveling west on Route 1002 at 9:45a.m. There was a cable stretched across the road belonging to Adelphia that was not high enough for the trailor to clear. Mr. Martin struck the cable with the top of his trailor, causing it to snap. The pressure broke a power pole beside U.S. 522 to which the cable line was also attached. The pole broke in two places shutting off power to most of the town of Sperryville and west almost to the Shenandoah National Park. The top of the trailor was damaged slightly according to investigating state trooper Charles Moore. No charges were filed, and Mr. Martin proceded on his way. Officials from Potomac Edison said that they had recently raised the height of the pole and another beside Route 1002 carrying the cable, but the cable company had not in turn raised its line. A replacement pole was installed in the early afternoon, and then workers for the power company reinstalled their lines returning power by about 4 p.m. Later Tuesday night workers for Adelphia were at work restringing the cable lines to restore service to their Sperryville customers. Rappahannock Hunt Point to Point Races Set for Saturday Weather Leaves Traditional Event Uncertain By BETSY BRANSCOME Rappahannock New* Staff Writcr The Ben Venue owner-rider timber race at the March 5 Rappahannock Hunt Point-to-Point in Sperryville is certain to offer plenty of drama and suspense: the question is whether or not Henry Wood’s ’93 series champion Topeador can notch his fourth victory at the Thornton Hill Farm course. Post time is set for noon at the hillside oval, with seven horse races, a pony race and the Great Rappahannock Hound Race slated to fill the varied card. A full day of timber and flat racing action will prevail if the snow doesn’t force postponement of the event. The owner-rider timber headlines the card, and Topeador wall undoubtedly have a big box office draw — with his fans lining the rails to see if the old man do it again. A 13-year-old Chilean-bred gelding, Topeador has skipped his way to four consecutive year-end series titles for his Atlanta-based owner. He was defeated by a surprisingly fit Lone Star Lester at last Saturday’s Casanova races, but Bay Cockbum’s entry is not slated to run at Sperryville. The toughest competition for Topeador’s mantle should be William Russell’s Fluorite, a former hurdler who looked to have come into his own when he ran third to Lone Star Lester and Topeador on Saturday. Also shaping up to be a showstopper this Saturday is the Elzy Brown Memorial open timber race. Six are entered to contest the 2'/zmile course. The final hill at Thom ton Hill has for many years ruthlessly exposed the limitations of all pretenders to greatness. The long pull from the second to last fence to the wire challenges all but the fittest. Everyone will be looking upward to see what hand the skies will deal, but whether the weather holds or not, the foxhunter’s timber series drew a competitive bunch with no prejudices about muddy or soft going. Brown’s Thornton Gap, winner at Casanova, and runner-up Roman Tent, are both proven on yielding turf. A pair of flat races and a pony race — probably to split into two divisions for the range of sizes —round out the race card.

Tax Checkoff Benefits _ . / Transportation for , Elderly and Disabled i This year’s Virginia State Income Tax return again* allows Virginians to donate their tax refund to1 a special fund that pays for transportation for over 500,000 Virginians who cannot drive because of age or disability. Contributions made on Line 27-i of the state tax form go to the Specialized Transportation Incentive Fund. The Fund has awarded grants totaling almost $200,000 to area agencies on aging and other .human service organizations to serve both elderly an disabled people in many of the 100 counties and cities without public transportation. Commissioner Thelma E. Bland, Virginia Department of the Aging, said “There is a tremendous need to expand transportation for over 500,000 Virginians who cannot drive because of age of disability. Every where I go, the elderly, the disabled and their families say they need help with transportation. It is their critical link to a job, to their doctor, their bank, and their grocery store. This tax check-off is a way for all Virginians to contribute to a solution.” According to Mrs. Bland, “The Americans with Disabilities Act doesn’t solve the transportation needs of most persons who are old or have a disability. It definitely helps those near fixed-route bus lines, but most of Virginia doesn’t have ttyat. The Fund is administered by the Virginia Department for the Aging.

Lynn as Headmistress. Mrs. Lynn and her late husband, William E. Lynn, founded the school in 1972. Following Mr. Lynn’s death in 1988, Mrs. Lynn served as interim headmistress until 1989 and again from 1991 until Feb. 1994 after the school was reincorporated as a nonprofit, tax-exempt membership corporation. a Wakefield Country Day School, with its internationally recognized classical curriculum, has a growing student body in grades pre-K through 12th, and recently was formally recognized by the Internal Revenue Service as a tax-exempt organization. Increased fund raising, development and recruitment activites, together with growing administrative responsibilities led to Mrs. Lynn’s decision to step down. Mrs. Lynn indicated to the Board that she found it increasingly difficult to handle these duties as head of the school while maintaining a full teaching load. The Board accepted Mrs. Lynn’s resignation with regret, citing her dedication and many contributions to the School in its 22 year history. Mrs. Lynn will continue to teach and act as head of the drama department, and will retain her seat on Wakefield County Day School’s Board of Directors. As such, she will help maintain the school’s rigorous curriculum and historic traditions of academic excellence. Both Mrs. Lynn and the Board are very pleased with the selection 3 of Malcolm Schantz as the Interim Headmaster.

The computer program was • written by Jack Dunford, an Extension Farm Management Agent in Virginia. The program assists farmers in determining what nutritional requirements are needed for their livestock, and saves money for the - farmer by calculating exact amounts . to be fed, so farmers won’t overfeed their animals. Cattle farmers need to feed their animals varying amounts depending on whether the animal is going to pasture or market. The computer program will give the farmer information about what is needed for a particular animal in the way of DM (dry matter), CP (crude protein), TDN (total digestible nutrients), and many other nutrients. The first step in the program is to enter information about a particular animal’s weight, daily weight gain desired, frame size, and sex. Amounts and types of feed are then entered, and the program computes percentages of DM, CP, TDN and other nutrients for each type of feed. The farmer strives to have the percentages add up to 100 percent each for DM, CP and TDN. The 100 percent represents the exact amount of nutrients and feed the cattle needs to gain a certain amount daily. The farmer can experiment with different types of feeds and different amounts in order to have each column add up to 100 percent, or as close as possible to that amount. The reason for this is so the animal’s diet ' will contain the optimum amount of nutrients for him or her to gain weight at a specified amount per day. Another major reason for the program is to allow the farmer the option to use alternate feeds which can provide the same nutrients at a lower cost. When the farmer decides which feed he wishes to use, he should send a sample of it to VPI for testing of nutrient values. Those figures are then entered into the computer program. Mr. Welch gave an example of his cattle operation and how he uses the program. He has a 600 pound medium frame steer which he wants to gain two and one-half pounds per day. Working with feed that he has grown himself, and soybean oil meal, which he must purchase, he has determined the daily amounts required by this animal. Feeding him 22 pounds of com silage with 32 to 40 percent dry matter, two pounds of orchardgrass hay, five pounds of ground com, and one pound of soybean oil meal, called 44 percent, will provide the animal with all the food he can eat, and needs to eat, to gain two and half pounds per day. The program will also calculate the feed cost per animal per day. For the 600 pound steer, the per ton prices for the com silage, orchardgrass hay, and ground com were estimated, since Mr. Welch grows this feed on his own land. Mr. Welch purchases the soybean oil meal for $255 per ton. At $15 a ton for the com silage, $15 a ton for the orchardgrass hay, and $140 a ton for the ground com, the amounts needed by the steer daily total 66 cents. This amount can be multiplied by the number of head of the same weight to figure total daily costs for each weight group. 11 Jeremy Turnbull also makes use of this program. He tends to 25 heifers in Huntly, not far from Mr. Welch’s farm, and normally feeds them hay and com. He purchases Two Day Conference on Emu Ranching Offered in Reston An educational conference for landowners who want to learn about emu ranching is scheduled for Friday, March 18-19 at Sheraton Inn in Reston. .

Katy Paralore, Albert Payne, Dean Payne, Stacey Payne, Melissa Zim the com, and because of the floods in the midwest last year, prices are very high. Mr. Turnbull feeds his heifers only enough com and hay daily for them to gain one and a half pounds a day, because in the spring he will artificially inseminate them and turn them out to feed on grass. Mr. Turnbull and Mr. Welch both keep their cattle separated by weight, so they receive the correct amount of feed. If different sizes were mixed together, some might receive too much protein, and others too little dry matter. It makes it much easier to feed them when they are all together in the same lot. Farmers Welch and Turnbull could be the only ones using this program in Rappahannock County. Once a month they update their feeding amounts according to the weight of their cattle. They both recommend the program very highly. “Being efficient is the name of the game,” said Mr. Welch. “Not everyone is misfeeding their animals. This program is just a tool to see what their animals are using and to try to save money through proper feed utilization,” said Scott Cunningham, Rappahannock County Extension Agent. Mr. Cunningham has the program for the office computer, and farmers can contact the extension office if they are interested in learning more about the program or using it themselves. 1 Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Jeremy Turnbull and Dale Welch check on computer program for mixing cattle feeds to promote ideal growth. B & B Wins Approval By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock News Staff Writer The Rappahannock County Board of Zoning Appeals unanimously approved a special use permit for Susan Hoffman to run a bed and breakfast at Belle Meade Farm on Rt. 231 south of Sperryville. Ms. Hoffman has also applied for a special exception to operate a day camp at the farm during the summer. The Board of Supervisors is to consider that application next week. Ms. Hoffman said she plans to have five bedrooms available for guests. Four would be in the house and one in a guest cottage. She said, “I am looking at the bed and breakfast for the fall, winter and spring, and the day camp in the summer.” She does not plan to have both operations going on at the same time. When asked by one of the members of the BZA if she would have parents of campers stay in the bed and breakfast at the same time, she adamantly replied, “No.” Ms. Hoffman said that some serious work will have to be done on the house. The septic and well have checked out. She said the house will be renovated and added to. f) BZA member Jimmy Swindler said, “My only concern was the driveway. It seems like the homeowners are as concerned as we are.” A drawing of changes to be made to the property show that the driveway will be moved northeast of where it is now, at the Virginia Department of Transportation’s recommendation. It is now on a curve, which can be a dangerous situation. Ms. Hoffman also stated that there is plenty of parking, and it will be screened from the road. She hopes to open the bed and breakfast this fall. The BZA’s representative to the Planning Commission, Sid Gottlieb, remarked that he only wants to be on the Planning Commission for one more year. “I think the same people have been fon the Planning Commission for long enough,” he said.

He added, “Rappahannock County, without question, is going to grow. How, when and where is what we can discuss.” He said that the Disney America proposal comes because “Prince William County has been Hell bent to grow in any way shape or form.”He said that growth in Prince William started in the 50s and now that county “is trying to attract more growth to pay for the growth they already have and can’t afford to service...” “Rappahannock County has yet to be thrown into the fray of what it takes to maintain some semblance of a rural environment,” Mr. McNear said. “We have to become much more pro-active. We need to put tax dollars at stake to do what needs to be done. Citizens must make the hard decision to trade some property rights to maintain the quality of life.” He said, “The more the county succeeds in maintaining a rural environment, the harder it gets to succeed. That’s what attracts people to it.” ; He noted that the county’s Comprehensive Plan is due to be reviewed this year. “I think this plan needs attention,” he said. “There needs to be more rational discussion of alternatives backing the zoning ordinance. We need to pay more attention to the villages and village planning.” He said, “If we’re trying to keep the countryside, we must be sure to have areas adequately designated for housing in and around the vil-> jages. One of our biggest challenges is to try to meet housing needs of our elderly and young people. This is, tough, especially in this county where the villages don’t have the infrastructure to provide cost-effective housing, such as town houses, apartments and duplexes.” In response to a question from Aileen Day on how more farmers could be involved in buying the farms that come on the market, Mr.; McNear said, “The value of the land for farming has long since been exceeded” by the market. He said some program to transfer development rights might work, but there is no market yet. l COMPLETE INTERIOR DESIGN SERVICE si* Architectural Inception 4s Lighting He Kitchen and Bath Layouts He Floor/Space Planning IN HOME DECORATING SERVICE H* Furniture H* CarpetingAVall Coverings *ie Window Treatments He Original Art/Accessories 1 \\ RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL Bit O' Green Interiors (703) 987-9432 Washington.

[ Sewer Z Suddenly most county boards, are discussing the i ^possibility of providing sewer service to the schools, proposed ■General Commercial Overlay Zone) and possibly the town of •Washington. , £ These discussions were sparked by the cost the schools jire encountering in meeting new state requirements for 1 jjsewage treatment with present facilities, possible problems •with soils for septic tanks and drainfields in the commercial jarea, and retiring Treasurer Brad Fisher’s comments about ^Washington’s future. m I A sewer system to serve all these areas presents problems because the town is in the Rush River watershed, ■while the schools and the commercial zone are in the jCovington River watershed. n Z If a plant is to serve both areas, sewage must be pumped Srom one watershed to the other. That may well cost less than separate treatment plants, but surely some study of the feasibility of such a project needs to be done. Such a study Should also consider which river the plant will discharge into. Z Timing has become essential because the school system is involved in using funds from Virginia Public School Authority ponds. Those funds can be used to acquire land for Educational purposes. They can be used to provide sewage for ihe schools. They probably cannot be used for a multi-user pewage system, and the school system has less than a year to Spend the bond money or request an extension. ; There are certainly other educational uses to which the Inoney can be put. The halls at both schools are once again filing with trash cans set out to catch water from leaking poofs. The high school needs more classrooms now, and the Seed will become more critical. : However, the school system needs to know that its sewer peeds will be met at the elementary school by August 1997, or It must go it alone in meeting sewer needs now while bond monies remain. • The school administration has used a figure of $200,000 to provide a “package sewage treatment plant” for the Elementary school. Environmental Systems Services of Culpeper has been advising the schools on how to comply with ptate rules for sewage treatment, and that figure was Apparently an ESS estimate. It seems low to us. » Many options must be explored before a decision is peached, and time is running out. v WHILE l WAS FIGHTING IN VIETNAM MV OPPONENT WAS GETTING ADVANCED EDUCATION... / GOSW A HIGHLY EDUCATED,, SENATOR." 1 HE®*, PRIMARY CAMPAIGN NORTH vs MILLER Rappahannock Heritage Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan According to huntsman Oliver Brown this course for Saturday’s races was in ideal shape earlier this week. Music Supporters Thanked To the Editor On behalf of the Rappahannock County Music Boosters, we would like to thank all of you who supported the citrus fundraiser. Our program is growing rapidly and proceeds will go toward new music, instruments, and uniforms. There are many people without whom this venture would have been1 impossible. Foremost, we would like to thank Mr. Gordon Thornhill and the employees of the Rappahannock Farmers’ Cooperative. They unloaded the shipment, directed our customers to the warehouse, and “kept and eye” on the fruit when we could not be there. Liz Blubaugh, Roger Flinchum, Harald Havstad, and Sally Havstad made our distribution process smooth even when the pace was hectic! Also, there t were many students who cheerfully lifted and passed out the heavy boxes in the cold weather. Our thanks go to Christy Beach, Chris Beck, Ian Blubaugh, Shannon Cordani, Dawn Havstad, Bonnie Jewell, Susan Jewell, John Paolicelli, Sherry Jo Shaw, and Trey Smith. We believe that this year’s sale was very successfully and we hope to make the next citrus fundraiser even better. Thank you for your support! WENDY L. WHITFORD, Band and MELINDA RUSSELL, [ To the Editor: When I walk downtown with my mother we always stop at the Country Cafe to get ice cream. I don’t really know many people who work at the Cafe but it the best place to eat at in town. Acutally it’s the best place to eat in the whole state. When my mom says its time to go for a walk. We immediately scream “No!” But when she says I will get you an ice cream at the cafe we change our minds. I hope that when I am old and gray The Country Cafe is still there. RUTH PURNELL, age 10 Washington Hazel Tier III Needs Help To the Editor I am writing to report to the citizens of Rappahannock and Culpeper counties on the issue of the Tier III nomination of the Hazel River. The completed nomination was sent in early in December, and will be in the review process in the next few months. Thanks to all who joined in the effort so far, we have a nomination in with many beautiful letters and photos. While the nomination has gained much support from many miles of Director Choral Director Supported riverfront land owners, and others who use the river for recreation; there is still time and it is very important that any citizen who wishes to make their feelings known, write to the Water Control Board. Research on the river has brought to light that The Hazel has already been identified as meeting the minimum criteria for potential inclusion into the National Wild and Scienic Rivers System, by the Department of the Interior. This inclusion of the Hazel on the updated Nationwide Rivers Inventory affords the river an extra measure of protection, in that there are procedures to get consultation on any adverse effects the river might undergo. I mention this to point out that it is not only the Tier III nominating group of citizens that has found the Hazel to be a wonderful resource. What does Tier III mean to the average citizen and land owner along it’s banks? It means that the Hazel will flow on as it has in ages past, as a wonderful wildlife habitat and recreational resource. Land owners will be able to build on their land, however they will not be able to put a sewer treatment plant on the river. There is a formula for effluent ot be introduced through a tributary stream with the proper mixing zone for water aeration. Water may be withdrawn in the future for a municipal water supply. This measure of protection for this vital resource will also show our respect for our neighbors downstream who drink this water. Growth will come to our area and clean water will be our ultimate need to sustain quality in life. Now that all the data is gathered and sent in for the nomination it is still only a nomination. The staff of the Water Control Board then reviews that data and makes a recommendation to the Water Control Board. If they agree that is qualifies for Tier III status it goes to public hearing. There are all sorts of serious reviews, and hurdles to get through and in the end local governments can have the final say, by proving economic hardship. This Tier III programs is not about stopping growth, but rather, about saving expceptional environmental and recreational resources. We should have growth in the right places and at a pace that will preserve our resources such as our rivers. In Rappahannock County the Hazel comes off Hazel Mountain and drains a large area of the Shenandoah National Park. It flows under State Scenic Byway, Route 231, and runs through woods and farmland. It’s banks and waters support all kinds of plant and animal life. The Hazel River runs through agriculturally zoned land and the ties between our clear), rivers and our farmland are so critical to our future. There are a few things we can be sure of in the future and one is that there will be less prime farmland, and little pristine water, and more people needing both. In the next few months the Department of Environmental Quality will be reviewing the Hazel River nomination. If you believe that a Tier III river flowing through our counties will greatly enhance our way of life, protect a resource for our children’s future, and show our respect for our neighbors downstream, please take the time to write a letter of support for the nomination. Topics to address in your letters are the recreational opportunities the river gives us, it’s scenic beauty, and the ecology of the river; that is the wildlife sanctuary and diversified plant ecology it preserves. Students, citizen groups, riverfront landowners, please think about the Hazel River as a Tier III, exceptional waters river, the river needs your support. It is extremely important to guard and exercise our right * to take part in environmental protection as individual citizens. Write to: Richard Burton, Director, D.E.Q. Water Division, P.O.

MEL^O Rixeyville Bragg Family Information Sought To the Editor: I am researching my ancestors of the Amissville area in Rappahannock county. I am hoping your readers may be able to help me in my research. My great-great-great-grandfather, John Bragg was bom between 1810 and 1820, possibly in Fauquier or Culpeper county. (Was he the son of Joseph Bragg and Triphena Poe, married in 1808 in Fauquier county?) John married Lucy Ann Rollins, daughter of Thomas and Eleanor RoUins. Two children were bom to John and Lucy Bragg: Thomas Joseph in 1839 and Sarah in 1841. In 1840, John Bragg lived with his family in Rappahannock county, but I can find no trace of him after this. Lucy died in 1891. Thomas Joseph Bragg enlisted in the 49th Regiment with the Rappahannock Rifles during the Civil War and served four years. In 1867 he married Rachael Creel, daughter of David and Delilah Creel. Children bom to this union were: Sallie, Anne, David, Lillie, Martha, Charles, John and Rachael. Thomas Bragg died around 1912 and Rachael Bragg died around 1922. There are many descendents of these families living in this area today. I would appreciate any information anyone may be able to give me: 12315 Porter Rd, Orange, Va. 22960 or 672-5994. JEANNE BRAGG COX Orange Cheerleaders Missed To the Editor: On Feb. 24, Junior Varsity teams from four Bull Run District School’s played in the Semi-Final Round of The District Championship Basketball Tournament at Clarke County High School in Benyville. Three of the competing teams, Bentsville, Central and George Mason, were accompanied by cheerleadings squads which did their best to inspire their players. Rappahannock was not. I thought the fundamental purpose of having cheerleaders was to lead cheers,, ad the name implies, and I felt that the lack of participated by the group (for the second time this year at a J.V* game) was shameful. Rappahannock High School does not send teams to District Championship Tournaments on a routine basis, and the Cheerleading Squad’s failure to support the team Thursday night indicated a lack of respect for this team and its accomplishments. Fortunately, a pep bus full of students, as well as the Varsity team and many adult fans, did attend the gameand did cheer the J.V. on to a dramatic 1-point victory. The section of stands reserved for Rappan hannock supporters was packed*, energetic, vocal and inspriational to the athletes, who played their hearts out to defeat Brentsville for the first time in more than two years. “ Congratulations and thanks to Coach Gary Leake, the J.V. Panth-r era and the supporters, faculty and fans who have supported the team, through this exciting season. If the School Board is still seeking ways to reduce next year’s school budget increase, they might want to discuss the need to fund a cheerleading squad that doesn’t lead cheers. TREVOR W.

)■ ■ JV Panthers Make Championship Final But Lose to Central's Strong Comeback Spring Warning Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Jon Butler heads upcourt with the ball in the game Friday. i Library Board Works On Next Year's Budget By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer The Library Board struggled with its budget at last Thursday’s meeting, trying to close a nearly $8,700 difference between expected revenues and planned expenditures. • Included in increased expenditures were a 31.2 percent increase for salaries of library staff, a 111.8 percent increase for repair and maintenance, and a 46.7 percent increase for telephone service. The large increase in salaries was to include an additional assistant for 24 hours a week at $7 per hour. Betty Smith has been working for the library under a state grant for developing the computerized public i access catalog. Library director Nicki Lynch hopes to be able to keep the position once grant funds are used up. The salary category also included increases for two other part time li- i brary employees and a 5.5 percent increase to the library director’s salary to make it more comparable to salaries for directors in surrounding counties. Twenty-five hundred was included for repairs to the library driveway. Frank Warner, reporting for the buildings and grounds committee said this was a token amount to cover paving the driveway and parking area. He said he estimated completing the job would cost between $12,000 and $15,000. \ When the board went over the problem of funding the budget, Mr. Warner suggested that $2,000 be dropped from the maintenance category, but he said the need would remain. He said he had analyzed the board’s options, and “the situation with the road for long term maintenance is very serious.” Library Board member John McCarthy said he had originally opposed paving the driveway, but continued problems, particularly with the section at the beginning had convinced him “I was wrong.” The increase for telephone service would mean an increase in monthly fees from $24.49 per month to $74.62 per month. It would include a second line and intercom. Member Mary Jamieson objected to this increase. “This is typical of government,” she said. Mrs. Lynch said now people at the front desk have to holler to her to get the phone when she is in the staff office. “We’ve operated with this almost medieval system,” member Roberta Anderson said. The library has received a donation of the equipment for the twoline system with intercom, The board voted to ask the Friends of the Rappahannock Library for the funds to install the equipment. The only remaining cost is the monthly operating cost from the telephone company. The board agreed to meet again this Thursday morning for more work on the budget. Halley Morgan reported that the book sale over the Presidents’ Day weekend netted about $1,200 for the Friends. She said she would also coordinate the Fourth of July booksale, and said that she felt future sales should be during tiihes when there is an event in Washington that the library can coordinate with. Mrs. Jamieson asked if it would be possible to have the booksale upstairs in the community room. “Above ground is much more inviting,” she said. With the narrow stacks in the basement, “It was a fanny to fanny operation,” she added. Mrs. Morgan said she felt this would be possible if the number of books for sale could be weeded down first. By CINDY MAHAN Bappahannoek Newi SUIT Writer On the bus on the way home from losing to Central in the junior varsity basketball tournament last Friday night, the team members said "Next year that is going to be us.” The junior varsity panthers were defeated by Central 50-43. “Our goal was to finish in the top two this season, and we did. They worked toward that goal the entire season, and stayed focussed for each game. I am real proud of what they accomplished,” said Coach Gary Leake. The JV team finished the season with 15 wins and five losses. The JV beat B rents ville 30-29 last Thursday. This allowed them to advance to the'finals on Friday. Jon Butler was the leading scorer in the game Thursday, and he and Jeff Atkins were shared as leading scorers. in the game against Central. Coach Leake said, “Although the Central game was lost that was not an indication of the season. Of the 24 minute game, we won 20 minutes of it. “We had a couple of events that Youth To Make Movies ii Mark your calendars for: Lights? Action! Camera! Let’s make movies!

Kevin Miller Says Next Term May Be Last By PATRICK GRAHAM Tlmca-Democrat Staff Writer RICHMOND — Sen. Kevin G. Miller, a 14-year Richmond veteran and the Senate’s second ranking Republican, may soon call it quits. Miller, 63, said he will seek reelection in 1995, but will step down after serving in the General Assembly’s 1999 session. The quiet and unassuming certified public accountant and former James Madison University business professor has represented Rappahannock County and most of Fauquier County since 1983. In an exclusive interview last Monday with the Rappahannock News, the Harrisonburg resident for the first time revealed his desire to retire. “If I run for re-election next year and win, it will be my last,” he said. “I want to spend more time hunting and 'fishing. I want more time to ride my motorcycle. ” Miller’s decision to retire, based upon re-election, comes at time when the Republican Party appears on the verge (the party is three seats shy) of taking majority control of the Senate. Miller said such a scenario could force him to rethink his retirement. “That may change my perspective a bit,” Miller said in his third-floor office overlooking the historic state capitol. As the second highest-ranking Republican in the Senate, Miller would have his pick to be chairman among five Senate committees should the GOP push the Democrats into minority status. Miller said he would like to chair either the Senate Transportation or Privileges and Elections committees. “Politics is hard to predict,” he said. “It will all depend on how the public perceives Gov. Allen and what happens at the national level.” Miller, who also served in the House of Delegates from 1980 to 1982 along with his younger brother Del. Clinton Miller of Shenandoah, said he has seen many changes come to Richmond, not just new faces. He said the legislators have become less provincial and more sophisticated. “There is less partisan politics than is perceived by the majority of the people,” he said. This year, with the election of Allen as the first Republican governor in 12 years, Miller expected the session to be marked by partisan bickering. “It is a much calmer session than last year when the issue was gun control,” he said. “There has been a lot less emotion. The climate is different. I’ve noticed a marked improvement in the relationship among legislators and agency heads.” The only fighting Miller can cite has been over whether the state should subsidize the Disney’s America theme park in Prince William County. Miller endorsed both the project and the state aid plan. In a letter to constituents he penned: “We simply cannot let this opportunity go by without making every effort to make this project happen ...” Miller noted that he received dozens of palls and letters on the issue. An affable Miller describes himself as a champion of Republican simplicity: less government and taxes. To prove his point, Miller read from a poem he found in a 19th century book one of his students gave him while he taught college In the Portsmouth area years ago. His translation of the rambling verse: “Giving does more harm than good. I think government engages in too much of that.” This core philosophy of minimalism and restraint is quite evident by the fact that he only submitted three bills and two resolutions this year. Moreover, on the less taxes front, Miller’s cornerstone legislation sought to improve the lot of Social Security beneficiaries under current tax laws. A subcommittee this week tabled the legislation to study and hold public hearings. Under current state law, those 62 or older, which includes Miller himself, are allowed a deduction on their taxable income. Social Security is subtracted from that deduction. Miller’s bill would have given a lower deduction but no longer subtract Social Security. 1 In addition, Miller submitted two resolutions that would have limited the General Assembly’s power to raise taxes. One called for a twothirds majority in both chambers to raise new or old taxes. In looking back at his track record, Miller had trouble citing his proudest accomplishment. He did point out that he authored legislation while in the House that cracked down on Medicare abuses. But to Miller his legacy is more attitude than having pushed through a slew of bills that expand government and complicate the lives of Virginians. “I’ve been trying my best to bring about efficiencies in government and to hold down the growth in government, and to keep taxes at a minimum,” he said. _ .

Mr. Orr said the operations and maintenance manual calling for treating septage with lime and aerating it probably wouldn’t work and would be very expensive. Environmental Systems Services of Culpeper rewrote the O and M manual over the summer. Revising the manual was part of the agreement the WSA reached with the State Water Control Board after violations at the plant were revealed in the summer of 1992. ESS had bid $5,000 to design the system to handle septage. That work would not have included actually building the system, and WSA members sought other bids on designing a system to meet requirements of the manual. Mr, Orr expressed interest in the problem but sajjd he felt it would be better to alter the manual than to try to design a system to fit its requirements. He was invited to attend the meeting. He said as a part of preparing for the meeting, he visited the Remington plant owned by the Fauquier Water and Sewer Authority, and learned that the plant is being upgraded specifically to handle septage. He suggested WSA members Check tEfje fcappafjannocfe iietosi to find out who’s getting married or who has tied the knot in your neighborhood. explore hauling their septage to Remington. He said if they cannot reach an agreement with that plant, he could revise the manual to specify gradually feeding septage into the sludge digestion tank rather than the beginning point of the plant, without treating it with lime of aerating it. Mr. Orr asked how sludge from the plant is handled. Member Charles K. “Pete” Estes said Recyc Systems of Remington hauls it away. Mr. Orr asked if it was land applied, and Mr.Estes said, “I don’t know.” Mr. Estes said probably most of the septage would end up as sludge, and the WSA should explore the cost of having it hauled directly to Remington as opposed to the cost of having it become sludge and then paying Recyc to take it. WSA members agreed to contact the Remington plant. As the meeting was winding down, Mr. Estes said the authority and county should look at putting in a second treatment plant to serve the schools, general commercial district and possibly the town of Washington. He said building a plant to serve the elementary school might cost up to $50,000 per year for operations. The county would have to pick up that operations cost, and Mr. Estes said the county would benefit from having private businesses share the cost of sewage treatment. He said the county also has an interest in seeing that septic systems serving businesses in the general commercial area do not contaminate wells that serve the schools.

• Community News • Obituaries Rappahannock News Real Estate Classifieds Press Enjoys Washington Inn's Relais Anniversary French Chef Samples Fare at Another County Restaurant By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock Newi Staff Writer Two of the best chefs in the world provided a sumptuous feast for 47 members of the press at the Inn at Little Washington last Thurs day. Visiting French chef Bernard Loiseau and Chef Patrick O’Connell of The Inn spent months devising a menu to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Relais & Chateaux. A similar dinner was served to paying guests that evening. The theme of the menu was La Fete de Pomme de Terre (The Festival of the Potato). Last Thursday, 36 such meals were prepared at Relais & Chateaux establishments in the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean. With the help of the New York French Consulate, each North American chef collaborated with a French chef to produce a celebratory menu. Relais & Chateaux is an organization of high quality hotels and restaurants throughout the world. Both The Inn and Messr. Loiseau’s establishment, Residence de la Cote d’Or in Saulieu, France, have received many of the most prestigious awards attainable for their restaurants and accommodations. In 1991, Messr. Loiseau received his third star from the Michelin Guide, an honor bestowed on only about 20 restaurants in France. He received his first star in 1977, and his second in 1981. It takes an enor mous amount of hard work and dedication to earn any stars from Michelin, but earning three is the ultimate achievement for a chef, and is definitely something to be proud of. It also greatly increases the earning potential of a restaurant. Once Messr. Loiseau had received his third star, his clientele nearly doubled. Messr. Loiseau visited here with his wife, Dominique. This was his first trip to the United States. Before serving lunch to the press, he cooked lunch for Mattie Ball Fletcher, who is 105 years old and lives one block from The Inn. The Inn has been delivering lunch to Mrs. Fletcher for several years. The Loiseaus personally delivered the lunch to Mrs. Fletcher, along with Patrick O’Connell, Reinhardt Lynch, Inn employee Beverly Burke, and a few members of the press to document the event. After visiting with Mrs. Fletcher for a short while, everyone returned to the kitchen at The Inn to check on sauces, etc. for the luncheon. 'During the hour allotted the press to meet and speak with the chefs, waiters and waitresses bustled around offering home smoked oyster canapes, barbecued rabbit turnovers, and caramelized onion tartlettes, served on silver platters and accompanied by Per rier-Jouet Brut “Relais & Chateaux Cuvee” champagne. Sparkling apple cider was also available. Once seated, the first course of Caviar Potato Sandwiches was served. This is a signature dish of Patrick O’Connell’s. It consisted of two baked lengthwise potato slices, with caviar and creme fraiche inside and on top. It was as delicious as the presentation was beautiful, served on a black plate splattered with capers, bits of cooked egg yolk, chopped chives, and red onion. The second course was Roasted Freshwater Prawns in a Pistachio Crust with Tomato Vinaigrette and Crispy Sweet Potato Salad. It also arrived with a beautiful presentation, and the prawns were succulent. Next came a recipe from Messr. Loiseau, Rockfish on Shallot Fondue in a Cotes du Rhone Sauce with a Puree of Garlic Potatoes. At Messr. Loiseau’s restaurant in France, he usually serves pike perch instead of rockfish. The red wine sauce was thickened with carrot puree. Messr. Loiseau is known for using lower fat sauces than most French chefs. Domaine J. Vidal-Fleury Cote Rotie “La Chatillonne Cote Blonde” 1988 was served with the rockfish course. A Sip of Oxtail Consomme Perfumed with Fresh Black Truffles and a 1954 Armagnac arrived next, and everyone at the table agreed that it had an exquisite taste. The main dish was comprised of meats from a local purveyor, Summerfield Farm in Culpeper. The mignonettes of Virginia venison, veal and lamb were served in a lacy potato nest with wild mushrooms and lingonberry salsa. The meats were as tender as could be, and the lingonberry salsa was an excellent counterpoint to them. This course was served with a 1986 Silver Oak cabernet sauvignon, Alexander Valley, a wine which is very popular but nearly impossible to obtain. To end an- already spectacular meal, Chef Loiseau’s chocolate cake was served along with two of Chef O’Connell’s recipes: Grandmother’s rhubarb pizza with ginger ice cream and a warm custard bread pudding with Wild Turkey sauce. All were incredible, especially the chocolate cake. Its center was a chocolate mousse. Gold dust in a fleur de lis design decorated the top of the mini cakes, and a sparkling birthday candle stuck in the center added to the festivity. Coffee was served, and a large platter of several other goodies was delivered to each table. Meringues, chocolates, tiny marzipan apples and potatoes, candied grapefruit rind Rappahannock News Staff Photos/Cindy Mahan Chefs David Shannon and Bonnie Moore help steady the Relais & Chateaux cake for the anniversary celebration. Patrick O’Connell, Bernard Loiseau and Beverly Burke took lunch to Mrs. Fletcher. and poppy seed cookies were some of the goodies. While dessert was being served, an enormously tall chocolate cake with eight tiers separated by gold columns, was wheeled into the dining room to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Relais & Chateaux. It was so tall that sous chef David Shannon had to stand on a ladder in order to reach the top to cut the first piece. After the press left, and before preparing the meal for dinner guests, the Loiseaus left with friends to have lunch at one of our other local restaurants, High on The Hog in Sperryville. Sperryville resident Alice Nordin was their waitress, and she was employed as the receptionist at The Inn in 1978-79. Messr. Loiseau was served a pulled pork and ribs platter, complete with cole slaw, baked beans and combread muffin. The three women at the table ordered hoppin’ john, red beans, greens and hush puppies, which were passed around and shared by all four. After dining, Messr. Loiseau walked into the kitchen and indicated, in French, that he had enjoyed the meal. Ms. Nordin had no idea who she had waited on that day until she read about it in The Washington Post on Monday. Bill Allyn, otherwise known as Wacky the Clown, entertained during dessert.

Share-the-Fun Show Is a Success The 4-H Share-the-Fun Talent Show is an opportunity for youth to participate in a creative and performing arts program. “One evening each year is set\ aside to celebrate the many talents of youth in Rappahannock County,” commented Helen W. Smith, Extension Agent. “After several rehearsals where they are coached on their acts, they present a talent show for parents, grandparents, 4-H leaders, and the general public who enjoy watching the children perform,” she continued. The 1994 program was held Friday, Feb. 25 at RCHS under the direction of Hazel Zinn-Day, 4-H Volunteer Leader. ‘This year for the first time we had our 4-H Cloverbuds (children ages 5-8 years, pre-4H age) perform,” commented Mrs. Smith. “Hazel Zinn-Day is the volunteer leader for the 4-H Colverbud Club, and she directed them in performing “Puff the Magic Dragon.” The 1994 winners were: Seniors: Blue ribbon - Matthew Payne -piano solos “Again” by Janet Jackson and “At the End of the Sea,” which Matthew composed himself Red ribbon - Bonnie Jewell, Jon Heddleston, Theresa Hudson and Susan Jewell -a percussion instrumental “Comedian’s Gallop” Red ribbon - Joy Adams - dance “Halleliyah.” Juniors: Blue ribbon - Lauren Thornhill - piano solo “Bells are Ringing” Red ribbon - Berkeley Hobson and Kate May - skit “The Papers” Red ribbon - Elaina Thornhill - a dramatic reading “Of Death & Immortality” White ribbon - Amber Welch, Emily Bare, Brant Marlett, Dana Caldwell and Colin Treanor - skit “Comic Romeo and Juliet.” The cloverbuds performers received green participant ribbons for singing “Puff the Magic Dragon.” Dawn Havstad served as Mistress of Ceremonies, and the stage crew was: Jon Heddleston, Johanna Tole and Theresa Hudson. moio courtesy oi 5ean Kilpatrick Cloverbud Nate Martin posed with Magic Dragon. nniuve interlace Detween tne art community and the community-atlarge. This will never be more evident than at this Sunday’s opening of “Artists and Friends,” a show designed to allow a look at some of our area’s seldom-shown artists. As the name of the show indicates, a Gallery artist invites a friend to exhibit alongside him or her in the Gallery. Interestingly, the interpretation of “friend” has been as wide as the appreciation of art forms. Lois Manookian has invited one of her students to exhibit watercolors with her. Superb wood sculptor Sandra Burton’s “friend” is her 25-year-old son, whose mounted rider painting reflects his passion for hunting with the Rappahannock Hunt. This coupling of friends and art make for what show curator Nina Moore calls a “warm and fuzzy” show. Try not to miss the official opening from 3 to 6 p.m. this Sunday at the Middle St. Gallery. Local Dancers Recognized Ruth Purnell participated with other dance class members of the Northern Virginia Academy of Dance in Front Royal in an “I Love Dance” competition Sunday at the McLean Hilton. The group won first place for “Waltz of the Flowers” from the Nutcrackers^knd second place for the “Spanish Dance” also from the Nutcradsefs. Ruth is the daughter of Robin and Jon Purnell of Washington.

March Is Nutrition Month By HELEN W. SMITH Extcmioa Agent, Home Economic! The American lifestyle has become increasingly hectic, with everyone from youngsters to seniors Bpending their day going from activity to activity. Many people don’t have time to plan or eat healthy meals, although a recent Gallop poll, co-sponsored by the American Dietetic Association, showed that 83 percent of Americans realize that what they eat may affect thenhealth. This March, during National Nutrition Month, here are a few tips to develop good eating habits to last a lifetime. A small amount of time spent planning meals and snacks can go a long way in improving your eating habits. Fitting more healthy foods into your lifestyle is far easier than trying to change your lifestyle to include three sit-down meals a day. Healthful, low-fat options can be found no matter where you are when it’s time to eat. For example, some of the best low-fat lunch bets can be found on a fast food menu. Grilled chicken sandwiches (without mayonnaise), small hamburgers, chili, and frozen yogurt tend to be lower in fat and still earn high marks for flavor. Order sauces and dressings on the side, and use them sparingly. And watch out for fat-laden convenience foods-chips, doughnuts, cookies, snack crackers, cakes, pies and fried foods. Other simple tips can help you and your family adopt a low-fat lifestyle. Trim the visible fat from meats and choose lean cuts. Choose from the wide selection of low-and non-fat dairy products,. including milk, yogurt and cheese. Nibble on pretzels instead of chips, a bowl or a HOME ECONOMICS small box of cereal in place of cookies, or a frozen bar or Italian ice rather than ice cream. When you choose to eat a high-fat food, simply eat less of it. Variety, moderation, and balance continue to be the keys to healthy eating. Choose daily from the major food groups, eat more fruits, vegetables and grains, limit calories and dietary fat, especially if you’re overweight, and put together an overall diet that meets your nutrient requirements and your lifestyle. The following muffin recipes are from Jane Brody’s Good Food Gourmet. They are made with whole grains and are low in fat to make a nutritious breakfast or snack food.

Eastham Eulogy By JANE E. ROTTIER timmmct New* Contributing Writer Services were held for Margaret (Peggy) Harty Eastham on Feb. 12 * at the Flint Hill Methodist Church with Rev. Merlin Shorb officiating. Peggy was killed on Feb. 7 in an auto accident on Route 647. A eulogy was given by Jane Eastham Rottier, her sister-in-law, which was followed by a solo on a penny whistle by her cousin, Heidi Eastham. Due to the icy roads, many would-be mourners could not make it to the funeral and have requested that the eulogy be printed in the Rappahannock News for their benefit: We are here today to commemorate the life of Margaret Harty Eastham - dear to most of us as Peggy - my sister-in-law, she was a model mother, devoted wife, dutiful daughter, loving sister, aunt, cousin / and friend. Peggy was bom in Georgetown, D.C. to Thomas F. and Ida Harty, October 30, 1934. She was one of four children-in order of appearance: Thomas, Peggy, Barbara and Catherine. She was working for the Marriot Corporation when she met my brother, Granville-Tom to her family. Actually, they met at a Little League Baseball game in Falls Church. They were married in Falls Church and Peggy became an important help to Granville in his jewelry shop and when he became mayor. Their son, Tommy, was bom there. They retired to Rappahannock County where they spent many happy days together. It was then that Peggy got to know her sister-inlaw, Janet Eastham, well; they became fast friends and confidantes. Janet has been a strong thread in the weave of Peggy’s later life. In recent years, her close association with Lindsay and Heidi Eastham and their two children, allowed her to joy in being a part of a young family. Peggy wrote her own eulogy upon the hearts of everyone who i knew her. Our family’s lives were enriched by her integrity, strength, love and courage in the face of almost insurmountable trials placed before her. Peggy had a great respect for human worth, whether it was the workman on her farm or friends or family, or professional people whom she encountered along her journey. She also had a love of animals and did not have the heart to turn away the many cats that were dropped off at her farm. She doled out huge amounts of food to them as she called each by name. She always took a negative and turned it into something positive - even the monies awarded her upon the tragic death of her son, Thomas Harty, by a drunken driver. She established a scholarship in his name at VPI where he excelled. It was she who helped her son’s friends through their grief. Also, as a result of Tommy’s death, she became active in Mother’s Against Drunk Driving. Soon after Tommy’s death, she lost her husband and made the long trip back to the Veterans Hospital in Martinsburg many times to comfort families who were yet to finish up with pain of Alzheimer’s. One does not have to put Peggy’s life down on paper for those among whom she lived. She was witty, with a laugh that made you find joy in her mirth, aside from the initial humorous remark. ,Peggy had tremendous help in her short journey of life. Her faith was unshakable and remained with her as a source of power through more hardships then most people ever experience. There was the tensile strength of her mother, Ida Harty. She has been with her in spirit and body as her challenges appeared to view. God kept Ida’s pattern and fashioned her daughter after her. Her other chil-j dren still have her inspiration to draw upon, for Ida is strong and philosophic whenever the arrows assail. / Tho’ Peggy lost her most treasured possessions, it did not keep her from turning her interest toward the lives of other families and their children, and extending that interest whenever visited or called. She loved her brother and sisters-and enjoyed her nephews and niecesErica, Robin, Marlene, Tommy and David. She never felt a problem was too hard to gfolve. One of her familiar sayingSjWe all remember is “no problem.” / Peggy had a quick mind, with sharp business acumen - a curiosity about how things work and why. Henry Van Dyke said: “There is only one way to get ready for immortality, and that is to love this life, and live it as bravely and faithfully and cheerfully as we can.’’-and so she did! One of her physicians put it so well when she said to me: “That lady could teach us all how to live.’’-and so she did! ...And now, dear, beautiful Peggy, our lives are impoverished by your leaving, but our love goes with you on your final journey and we visualize the joyful reunion with your precious family in Heaven.
