ARUNDEL Publisher Disney’s America at Haymarket. Four words which have fired warlike emotion in this rural Virginia countryside west of Washington like nothing here since the War Between the States more than a century ago. The proposed huge American history theme park is writing a new chapter of its own in Virginia history, its conclusion off in tho mist. _ Many see in Disney the end of the world as we have known it, urban sprawl destroying the classic, gentle beauty of the rolling foothills and pastures of the Virginia Piedmont, a national treasure. They view it as a threat to a way of life here. Arthur W. Arundel i Others see the Walt Disney Co. project as an opportunity for employment and new business; 19,000 new jobs, enthusiastically crows Virginia Gov. George Allen. They view it as improving a way of living here. » Few are those here who have no strong opinion on the issue, for or against Disney’s coming. I am no exception, with a secret passion for taking kids to Disney World and an equal passion for preserving this God-given open countryside.

At Monday’s meeting the supervisors began with a presentation on the proposed school budget for the coming year. School Superintendent David Gangel officially presented the $5.8 million budget. Included in that budget is $27,990, the first of 10 years payment for employees who took advantage of early retirement and received credit for five more years service than they had actually worked. County Administrator John McCarthy explained that the county could save $92,083 in interest payments by paying $187,817 in one lump sum instead of paying $27,990 per year for 10 years. The supervisors decided to see what the general fund surplus is likely to be before deciding whether to make the lump sum payment. The supervisors also received a letter from Theodore Chapman supporting continuation of funding for Operation Safe Haven, the program for at-risk students which has been funded by a federal grant. Funding to continue this program is not included in the proposed school budget. The supervisors agreed to hold the public hearing on the school budget on Monday April 25 in the high school library, with adoption of the school butget scheduled for their May 2 meeting at 7 p.m. in the courthouse. Other budget work sessions were scheduled for May 16 and May 23 at 7 p.m. in the courthouse. At those meetings the supervisors will consider other portions of the county budget with a public hearing on the whole budget scheduled for the June 6 meeting and June 21 scheduled for adoption of the county budget. The subject of the Disney theme park was first brought up by Phil Irwin, who urged the supervisors to consider tijghtening the county’s zoning and subdivision ordinances and “not let Massies Comer become Tysons Comer. Developers will be delighted to punch holes in the ordinances, and we need to know where we’re the weakest,” he said. The supervisors did not respond to this suggestion. Later they considered the impact of Disney’s America on local tourism. Jackson District representative Ellis Bingham had asked to have this put on the agenda. “It’s an emotional issue,” Col. Bingham said. “I want to compliment Jay Katzen for standing up and voting for this principal. He’s done an admirable job. I think the whole area is going to prosper from it.” He said training provided by the Disney Company could make high school graduates not planning on going to college “polished and competitive with anyone.” Col. Bingham suggested the county put out a “class act brochure” promoting such tourist attractions in the county as the bed and breakfast businesses, convenience to Luray Caverns and the Skyline Drive, and the “craft center” at Sperryville. Hampton District representative Mike Massie noted that Mr. Irwin had suggested the theme park will have an impact on county ordinances, and Col. Bingham said it would have an impact on tourism. He suggested the supervisors try to assess what impact Disney will have by going into the community and “from there develop a stratigy to deal with it.” The other supervisors did not rei See Board, Page A-6 Fodderstack Race Plans Underway Earth Day Activities To Enrich Weekend Fifty runners had pre-registered by late March for the 16th Annual Fodderstack 10KM Classic Saturday April 23. The race is organized by the Rappahannock Recreational Facilities Authority. Once again the principal sponsor of the event is The Inn at Little Washington. The first 250 runners or walkers to complete the course receive T-shirts. Trophies will be awarded to the first three finishers in each category with a fourth place trophy in the 12 and under categories. The trophies are made by Meryl Strange. Again the Eva L. Smith Memorial trophy will be given to the first man and first woman from Rappahannock County to finish the race. , This year the women’s race should be wide open, since Nina Stamer, who has won this trophy for the past two years has moved outside the county and won’t be eligible for it. High school senior Jason Waters, who has won the men’s division of the Eva Smith trophy for the past two years is expected to compete again, and he may well better last year’s time of36:56. Again the Virginia Savings Bank of Front Royal is offering a $300 cash prize to anyone who breaks the men’s record of 32:26 set by Steve Pinard in 1985 or the women’s record of 36:46 set by Kim Belyea in 1984. If both records are broken the cash prize will be split. Fees for pre-registration are $14. They may be mailed with a registration form to the Rappahannock Recreational Authority, P.O. Box 124, Flint Hill, VA. 22627, and must be postmarked no later than April 15, the same day federal tax returns are due to be mailed. If that deadline is missed registration may be as late as 9:30 a.m. the morning of the race at the starting point in Flint Hill. In that case the fee is $17. For further information call Bet Gehringer at 6753342. Evenings and weekends leave a message on the answering machine. Since Earth Day April 22 falls on Friday of the same weekend, RLEP’s president Hunt Hai^ is making plans to provide a full weekend of activities for county residents and visitors. “Here in Rappahannock, where we celebrate Earth Day everyday, there will be several activities worth noting that will be taking place on or around this date,” he said. The Rappahannock Elementary School’s newly formed Environmental Club will concentrate all week on Earth related topics, culminating in an open house at the school from 1-4:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 23. On Friday, April 22 from 4 p.m. until dark there will be an open community gathering at the Rappahannock County Park. Anyone wishing to join together for fun and fellowship, music and merriment in honor of the Earth is welcome. Peggy Shadier and the “Friends of Gaia” Earth Theatre Troupe will perform their latest skit at 5:30, and local groups such as RLEP will have information tables set up for updates on local and regional environmental issues, concerns and activies. Contact Hunt Harris at 636-3066 if you would like to participate. “Sorry, no vendors or sales of any kind,” Mr. Harris said. The Rappahannock High School Environmental Club has plans to take a field trip to the Rainforest Exhibit in Washington, D.C. at the National Zoo. Beth Gall is the club’s co-ordinator for the trip, so call her if you’d like to know more at 987-8575. Finally, on Sunday, April 24, the first in a series of hikes to special local places will take place. The series entitled “Step-By-Step,” will be conducted by Mr. Harris along with other community members and friends as a means of enhancing educational and recreational programs in our unique Rappahannock environment. The hike on the 24th is to White Oak Canyon in the full moon. Meeting time(s) and location(s) are 3 p.m. at the county park or 3:40 p.m. at the White Oak trailhead. Cost is free!

'King' Rules Brown Memorial 3 Topeador Adds Fourth Win In Ben Venue By BETSY BRANSCOME Times-Democrat Staff Wliter Trainer-rider Michael Elmore unleashed a devastating move from King's Galley at the head of the Thornton Hill Farm stretch to win the Elzy Brown Memorial open timber at Sunday’s Rappahannock Hunt Point-to-Point. “We didn’t get the lead until after the last [fence],” said rider Elmore following his victory with Mary Braga’s gelding. The 10-yearold galloped to open his ’94 account with a five-length score at the rescheduled Rappahannock races held April 3. The event’s original early March date met with frozen conditions, forcing the hunt to move back to Easter Sunday. Glorious holiday weather prevailed, a smaller than usual but enthusiastic crowd attended and a full, competitive racing program was offered at the Rappahannock County course. “This horse has really settled as he has aged,” said Elmore, a Middleburg resident. “This was his first time over this course . . . and he rated kindly.” A documented frontrunner, King’s Galley sped away to carry the target in the early running, but he raced at a reasonable pace in the first of the 2V£ miles. “Bay [Cockbum on Imperial Mom] actually led over the last,” Elmore said. “But we got to him on the turn into the stretch.” Elmore moved King’s Galley to the outside of the right-handed final bend into the straightaway, reeling in Imperial Mom’s lead and pulling off by five at the wire. In the day’s sub-feature, Redskins owner Jack Kent Cooke captured his second weekend score as his Big Estero made a winning ’94 debut in the novice timber. Twice a winner over the sticks last term following a stakes-winning career over hurdles, Big Estero is a homebred son of Big Spruce foaled at Cooke’s Elmendorf Farm in Kentucky. Don Yovanovich steered the winner for trainer Dot Smithwick. Topeador, ridden by Henry Wood, galloped to his fourth tri umph over the steep hillside oval, taking the owner-rider timber by a widening six lengths from a very game Moseby, Woods Winants up. “He jumped well today, even though we weren’t really racing that fast,” Wood said afterwards. “Topeador jumps much better at speed, but he really likes this course.” Mrs. Smithwick conditioned the winner. The ladies’ timber contest featured a trio of points-seekers mounted on three evenly matched jumpers — an exact recipe for exciting racing action. Michele Rouse’s sanctioned winner Political Angel took the early lead, shadowed closely by ’93 series champ Tom’s War, Ready Snodgrass up, and Duke Kahana Moku, Beth Newman. “I was a little worried about Duke in the early running,” Ms. Newman, the winner, said later. “He didn’t take a big hold like he normally does. He warmed up alright, but he was kind to rate . . , unusual for him. When we raced down the [very steep, final] hill, though, he picked it right up.” Local School Record Spotty In State's 'Outcome' Statistics iiitm. By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer There was not much good news for the local schools in the recently released Outcome Accountability Project (OAP) results for the 199293 school year. As previously reported, there was a dramatic increase in the percentage of 6th graders who passed all three parts of the Literacy Passport Test, from 72 to 83 percent. Statewide the percentages went from 63 to 69 percent. However, many measures of success on standardized tests showed a drop. One exception came in two scores the state uses to measure how well schools are doing in preparing students for work. Last year 90 percent of the 11th graders scored above the bottom 25 percent on the reading test compared to 86 percent in 1992, and 86 percent scored above the lowest 25 percent in math compared to 84 percent in 1992. In the meantime scores statewide were unchanged in this measure at 81 percent for reading and 79 percent for math. Scores to determine how well the schools are doing in preparing students for college include the percentage in the top 25 percent on composite scores. For 11th graders last year that dropped from 29 percent in 1992 to 22 percent and for 8th graders from 39 percent in 1992 to 29 percent. Statewise for 11th graders the percentage remained at 34 for See Numbers, Page A-6

High Speed Chase Ends in Wreck An Ainissville man who allegedly drove off from the Crown Service Station on Broadview Avenue in Warrenton at 3 a.m. April 1 was cited for a number of violations, including reckless driving, attempting to elude a police officer, and hit and run when officers finally got his vehicle stopped in Rappahannock County, reports filed with the Virginia State Police and the Warrenton Police Department said. Donald A. Settle, 24, reportedly entered the gas station and pumped $11.83 in gas into his 1986 Ford pickup truck and drove off without paying, Warrenton Police Chief Dale Koglin said. Employees of the store contacted the police and Officer D.L. Hensley responded to the scene and dispatched a description of the truck to other officers, he said. Trooper T.R. Fleming spotted Mr. Settle westbound on U.S. 211 and attempted to stop the vehicle, a report filed by Trooper Fleming said. Mr. Settle refused to stop the truck and headed into Ainissville where he rammed into the side of Trooper Fleming’s cruiser on Route 628 in Culpeper County, the report said. As a result of this act, he was charged with reckless driving and hit and run in Culpeper, the report said. Mr. Settle continued into Rappahannock County, followed closely by Officer Hensley, Trooper Fleming, and Cpl. B.S. Rogers of the Sheriffs Office, the report said. On Route 615 in Rappahannock County, the report said, Cpl. Rogers attempted to pass the suspect in order to effect a traffic stop, but his cruiser was struck in the side by Mr. Settle and knocked into a ditch, the report said. Mr. Settle then lost control of his truck and overturned on Route 615, the report said. i Once stopped in Rappahannock County, he was charged with driving while intoxicated, refusal to submit to testing, hit and run, driving on a suspended license, and failure to stop for a police officer, the report ! said. According to the report, no one was injured in the crashes, but the vehicles sustained damage. Trooper Fleming’s cruiser suffered $364 in damage while Cpl. Roger’s cruiser suffered $2,000, the report said, and Mr. Settle’s vehicle was totalled. Mr. Settle was being held in the Rappahannock County jail on $25,000 bond, Chief Koglin said. In District Court Tuesday the i charges against Mr. Settle were continued until May 17.

Day REALTOR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS AND TAX DOLLARS You can save thousands of tax dollars In the future by keeping accurate records of the money you spend on home capital improvements.

By keeping accurate records (cancelled checks and ‘ invoices), you'll save thousands of dollars when the day of reckon; ing comes with the IRS.

I Rappahannock News Staff PtwttVCindy Mahan Luke Zindel struck out three batters in the game with Manassas Park Monday. /> Soccer Team Wins First Match Baseball and Softball Teams Drop Another By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock New» Staff Writer “It was the strangest game I have ever coached, and I have been coaching soccer for 17 years,” said Coach Uli Maeyer of the game played last week between RCHS and Clarke County. In the first half, Clarke scored three times out of the five times they were in front of the goal. During halftime, Coach Maeyer had a pep talk with his players and told them that they could pull it out. jr' Back on the field, Jonathan Maeyer scored first. TTien Carlos Avelar, RCHS’s exchange student from Brazil, scored an incredible five goals within 17 minutes. “I have never seen anything like it. Each goal was different,” said Coach Maeyer. i He added, “Carlos is an absolutely unique player. I think he is a talent that I have not coached before. He is a striker and is still a team player, not at all arrogant. He is a great contribution to the team.” Coach Maeyer said that his team has character and self-confidence. ’’They were scheduled to play at Central Tuesday and at Brentsville Thursday. Both games are set for 7 p.m. The next home game will be against Quantico on Monday at 5 p.m. The RCHS baseball team lost to Manassas Park, 14-4, on Monday. f Coach Howard said his players are improving, however. “I am looking to win our first game by the end of this week. We are a better team than what we have been showing on the field,” he said. A1 Kellert pitched five solid innings and gave up five earned runsi “It was a gutty performance,” said Coach Howard. Junior James Eastham hit three for three. He scored a run, had one RBI and a stolen base. Luke Zindel hit one for three. He pitched the last inning and struck out three batters. Daniel Dodson and Barry Tummeyer also hit one for three. The next games on the schedule are Clarke County Wednesday and at home against George Mason Friday at 5 p.m. The RCHS softball team also lost their game on Monday. They were defeated by Manassas Park, 19-5. Coach Renee Leake said, “The hitting is fine but the defense is just not there. We were in the game until the last inning, when Manassas Park scored nine runs.” Amy Payne pitched the first five innings, and Dietrich Beaver finished the last two. Leah Marlett and Dietrich Beaver both hit triples, Bonnie Jewell hit a double, and Kari Kerr hit two singles. Cindy Welch and Marsha Freeman both hit singles.

Spring In spite of the cartoon below, it seems that wanner weather has indeed arrived. It is certainly welcome after what seemed like an endlessly cold and icy winter. j The coming of spring has brought the usual mixture of , good news and bad news. Apparently most of the county’s peach crop will be lost because extremely cold winter weather killed the flower buds. i * On the? other hand the extreme cold may have killed most of the pine tip beetle grubs that winter just beneath the bark of pine trees. These pests have been killing many of the yellow pine and loblolly pine in our area. Perhaps some other insect pests will suffer a setback , because of the below zero weather the winter brought. But many who battle gypsy moths seemed prepared to encounter an increased population of that pest this spring and summer. Grape growers are braced, waiting to see how their vines survived the winter. For some the losses may be severe. The community calendar fills with many more activities 1 than the most devoted activist can find time to attend, and we can be assured that at least those that take place ihdoorS won’t be canceled. It is too easy to try to do it all, hoping to make up for winter days when it was difficult to do anything. I But take the time to enjoy watching the fields turn green. Watch the parade of color as bulbs, shrubs and trees break out in bloom. Observe newborn animals find their legs %nd suddenly learn to play. Enjoy the relief of not having to scrape ice from windshields or bundle up before going out. Come out to the high school. Eat a hot dog and watch a ball game. April is the month to feel sorry for the vast majority of the earth’s inhabitants who don’t get to live in Virginia’s Piedmont. * « r IF THEY'RE PLAYING BASEBALL IT MUST BE SPRING r Rappahannock Heritage | Rappahannock News Staff PtaotoCindy Mah^,,, Hornet, owned by Kelly Corbin, won the hound race at the hunt races Sunday for the third year in a row. 1 f .A' Letters to the Editor .1 Library Book Sales Take Work To the Editor: Despite weather frustrations, the Friends of the Rappahannock County Library Winter Book Sale was a success, raising $1,200 over two days during the Washington’s Birthday Holiday. % The sale required over 130 man hours to pull together. Donated books had to be sorted, priced and placed on shelves in the basement of the library. Volunteers and staff often had to fight the awful weather to get in and then had to work in cold, dusty conditions. The Friends of the Library would like to thank all those who contributed their time and effort and all the generous persons who donated books and materials. FOL Book Sale Chairperson, Dr. Halle Morgan would like to thank especially Marshal Boarman for helping to determine which books might be rare and valuable despite not feeling well and Frances Thornton for her dedication throughout the process. I The Friends will be setting up a bookshelf in the foyer of the library with used books for sale. We are always accepting good quality volumes, videos, and so forth to be sold to benefit the library. We would like to remind the public that the staff goes over the donations carefully hoping to add books to the collection. Cookbooks, children’s books, and “best seller’s” are particularly helpful. The next Book Sale will be held on the Fourth of July upstairs in the Community Room and outside on the porch. Any and all help is welcome! Please contact the library at' 675-3780. sus^n McCarthy Washington Gasoophers Blamed To the Editor: With the Democratic Party in firm control of both houses of Congress, it seems a bit strange of Mr. Johnson to blame the Republicans for holding things up, but maybe I can straighten things out for him. The country is fighting a number of brush fires right now: Mr. Johnson names them: “jobs, health care reform, campaign reform, welfare reform...a crime bill”—the administration is galloping in to douse these flame with buckets of gasoline and the American people do not want them to get anywhere near the flames. That’s the problem for the “Gasoopher”—the rest of the Congress is listening to the American people, most of whom, let us remember, did not vote for Mr. Clinton. It may be bother the “Gasoopher” that the Clintons are not only dishonest and arrogant, but inefficient, dishonest, and arrogant, but it does concern some of us, and we have no obligation under God, the Constitution, or the rules of good taste not to make our case every chance we get. “Gasoopher”—guh-ZOO-fer—Collective noun, from Grabbers And Spenders Of Other People’s HardEarned Resources, usually to be thrown away (they say “invested”) on programs that either do not work at all, or make matters worse than they were. Individuals are known as “liberal Democrats.” EDITH POND Sperryville Support Appreciated;To the Editor On behalf of the Flint Hill Volum teer Fire Company I would like to thank everyone who supported the car wash and bake sale on Saturday; April 2.

Council Candidates Respond To Questions on Town's Future By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock Newi 8tafT Writer ! The eight candidates running for the five Town Council seats were ,“asked to respond to three questions this week: The first one was “Do you think the town of Washington needs a [sewer system? If yes, how do you think it can be funded?” ; The responses were as follows: < Doris Critzer: “We probably Iwill, if the town keeps expanding. [Otherwise we don’t need one. I [would say it is okay for now. It would probably take a long time to pay for.” Steve Critzer: “There are areas i .‘in the town where the soil quality for the amount of effluent being generated overwhelms the soil. We should work toward a sewer system in the ■future, but I do not know how we [will pay for it.” Charlie Eldred: “I think we need J ,to study it. I think we need to determine the extent of the problem. I 'think there is somewhat of a problem. “ If a way can be found to solve it ;in an affordable manner, such a sysjtem should be tailored to our fore•seeable needs without overbuilding •to the point of encouraging roughshod development.” ; Reinhardt Lynch: .“The elected officials need to listen to everybody, Istudy the facts, see if there is a •need, what it will cost, etc. I don’t [think anyone should enter into a town meeting with the preconceived notion of what should be. The whole point of the Town Council is to listen tffthe people, talk to the folks and go from there. “ You have to look at how serious the problem is. Regarding the funding of a sewer system, it reminds me oFfhe water system. It will have to be looked at. It would be nice to get as much as possible from the state.” Newbill Miller: “I don’t think any decision should be made until it is studied. The new Town Council should appoint a committee of someone in favor of a sewer system, someone opposed, and someone undecided. We could take the county add map and maybe do some borings tgrsample the sod. “ The town will be more intensely (developed if we get a sewer system. .Several landowners in town now -fiduld then break up their land into -several lots. “' Maybe a partial system for the town would be better than a full sysBasically the majority of the [problem is between the post office ‘anti the Foster-Harris House. We need to take care of it. We would have to get grants to finance. A central system would cost millions of dollars.” Janice Moffett: “We need to look into a sewer system. We have real problems in this town. I think we vngj have nugor problems; it is not something we can put off much lo£&er. There have been problems wjfli septic on Main Street.

I hear some fields uptown are not working correctly. What is it going to cost residents on fixed incomes? Will the state be able to help us out? I would have to study it with other members of the council. ” Mary Updike: “I would suppose it does, but we have gotten along without it for a long time. We need to study that. I don’t know how small towns afford it. I don’t think you can decide if it is needed until you study it and get some figures.” The second question was: “Do you have any suggestions about any specific changes needed in the ordinances or comprehensive plan?” Doris Critzer: “No. I am not too familiar with them.” Steve Critzer “We just updated the zoning ordinance and comprehensive plan. Both are very workable. At the Planning Commission meeting last month, we discussed that we may need only minor revisions when it comes time to update them again.” Charlie Eldred: “I don’t think so at this point. They have been recently amended and updated. I think for the time being they are in pretty good shape. I am sure we will find ways to improve them as we go along.” Reinhardt Lynch: “The past council has spent a lot of their time redoing them and they have all been revamped. They have made some important changes. I think they did a thorough job. The new town council could go back at any time and amend anything.” Newbill Miller “The town just revised every one of the ordinances in the past four years. I don’t think we need any major changes. I think we are in pretty good shape.” Janice Moffett: “No. I was just in on the rewriting of those. Any suggestions I had were already discussed.” Florence Tupper: “I am not up to date on any of it. We need to have structure since we are a historic town. With Disney moving nearby we want to make sure that we do not lose the farms and that everything does not become plastic and cement.” Mary Updike: “I would have to study them first.” The last question was: “Do you think the presence of The Inn is good or bad for the town and why?” Doris Critzer: “I do not really have any objections to them being there. I think what they have now is probably enough. It does bring in trade for the town. Everyone should have access to the streets and sidewalks in town.

I think we need more population and less business in the town.” Steve Critzer: “I think the Inn plays an important role in the town. With the passage of the meals and lodging tax several years ago, the income from the Inn alone is a large sum of money. When combined with the other restaurant and B & B’s, it enables us to fund many projects.” Charlie Eldred: “I think it is definitely good. It certainly brings people to the town of a respectable nature who have money to spend in the shops as well as at the Inn. This certainly benefits the economy of the town in addition to the restaurant and lodging tax which they pay to the town, which is directly beneficial to the town.” Reinhardt Lynch: “I think The Inn brings several things to the town that would not otherwise be here: a clientele that supports other businesses, such as B & B’s and shops. The meals and lodging tax is without question good for the town. The individual’s taxes and property taxes are kept lower because the funding is actually coming from outside. ” Newbill Miller: “I think it is good. It is a tremendous gold mine for the town’s treasury, provides employment and helps the economy and shops in town. As it exists right now it is fine.” Janice Moffett: “I have the utmost respect for the blood, sweat and tears that goes into building a successful business, but I think that any business in that position has to be very careful to balance the best interests of the business and the best interests of the community.” Florence Tupper: “I think it is good. It brings in money for the town. It is good if they consider the residents that are here. The residents’ ancestors have lived here and are responsible for keeping the small town beauty. They have worked hard doing so. I hope my grandchildren can come back here or will it be too expensive? Will it be another Williamsburg or Middleburg? We do not want to push out the natives. Do people come here to just go to the Inn or do they want to visit little Washington?” Mary Updike: “I do not think it is bad if they would contain it and they would not want to get bigger and bigger and bigger. I am sure we need the money from the taxes they pay.” 1 ★CHAMPION'S^ top teh yr A, '93 PONTIAC GRAND AM Auto, AC, AM/FM cassette, #P266 13.425 A '93 OLDS CIERA Auto. AC.

RCHS Spanish Students Share Bi-lingual Books With RCES Students i * . The high school Spanish classes took on the project of creating bi-Ungual picture/story books for the elementary school this year. This past Thursday they took the books to the elementary school and shared them with primary school students, but they did not want to give them up. Spanish teacher Liz Blubaugh said, “We will have to figure some thing out, but the Spanish students were so proud of their books.” They felt the books should not be given away. . The primary students were interested in learning how to say things in Spanish and enjoyed having the older students visit. Most had the opportunity to see three of the books and hear the stories. BZA Grants Variance By CINDY MAHAN Bawahannoek New* Staff Writer Last week, the Board of Zoning Appeals approved a variance for a setback of 16 to 18 feet for a house to be built by Mike Fewell of Huntly. Mr. Fewell plans to build a 26 by 40 foot house for his family, on a lot which fronts on a private road. According to the zoning ordinance, the front setback should be 100 feet, but Mr. Fewell said that without a variance to that requirement, the house he wants to build would be too small for him, his wife and two children. Instead of being 100 feet from the road, the variance for a setback of 82.5 feet was granted. A previous owner of the property had applied for a variance, which was denied. When this was brought up at the meeting, BZA member Jennifer Matthews noted that that was for a "dream house”, which would have been much larger than the proposed Fewell house. Two neighbors, the Corbins, were present at the meeting and stated that they had no objection to the variance being granted the Fewells. Another neighbor, Patricia Noll, also showed up at the meeting to inquire as to how far the house would be from her house. She was told by John McCarthy that her house was across the street from the Fewell’s land, not adjoining their property as she had believed. ; a RAA Organizes To Begin Season There will be an RAA baseball coaches meeting at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, April 8 at Amissville fire hall.

►Notes From Page A-l night to meet in separate homes, firehouses and churches to organize for the fight. The only common denominator in this fight is that both sides want healthy economic growth and both want to preserve the visual order and unspoiled beauty of northern Fauquier and southern Loudoun counties. Each in their own way want to preserve the good lifestyle and each wants, the way of living here to improve for all. They just differ at the point of 1 drawn swords over whether Disney’s America should be built at all on this glistening meadow at the foot of Bull Run Mountain. Fundamental to all of this is that while Disney’s America might trigger a rolling firestorm of ugly and environmentally degrading surrounding development, we the people would license that, not Disney. The Disney Co. has never erected a strip mall, a roadside souvenir stand or a cheesy motel outside of its reservation. Characteristically, it surrounds its theme parks with land left in a natural state or landscaped. Florida and California officials are quick to concede they were outmaneuvered and outgunned by Dis ney people to get their project built, but no one says Disney did anything illegal or even unethical. The Disney Co. followed the laws that those same officials had written, or rather that they failed to write to prevent the ugly plastic sprawl they now hate. Disney didn’t rezone for roadside strip development and strip malls in Florida, or even have a piece of the action. Local people, local governments, did that. And that is where the giant issue lies here in Virginia. There is an axiom of real estate speculators: Buy land along the road where it stops selling by the square foot and starts selling by the acre. Not long ago that epicenter of open roadside land selling by the acre in this region was a 180-acre place called the Storm Farm, asking price $900 an acre; it is now named Tysons Comer. Moving only 30 miles west from Washington in the 1990s, that epicenter is at Haymarket. If not Disney’s America, this sweeping, open land will sooner or later become some other commercial/industrial fantasy land. Even before Disney arose, Prince William County’s population was projected to grow 95 percent from 1990 to 2020, largely in this western open country which its county fathers, like it or not, regard as their breadbasket. Disney’s America by itself could be a good neighbor and employer. Interestingly enough, the most rei cent such local conservation battle stopped an industrial park on the historic Brandy Station battlefield near Culpeper — a Pyrrhic victory, for proposed there now is sprawling development around a huge motor raceway. The problem here for our times is not Disney’s 3,000 acres, it is what Joel Garreau so well has termed this next Edge City, swallowing hundreds of thousands of acres in this Haymarket corridor. If Disney is driven away, we will still inescapably have to answer to what comes next in western Prince William County. The Disney proposal has now fired the Edge City boiler. If our local representatives in fact represent our best interests here and in Prince William County, they have now got to put the hard teeth of law in our comprehensive plans and zoning to permanently block permits for the hucksters and strip developers to come. The Disney Company itself has urged such laws here. If this test ends with our time and energy burned out bashing the lead player, Disney, and without laws blocking that future agony, we will have missed the real target — urban sprawl licensed by our own state and local governments. We will have shot ourselves not in the foot, but in the heart, and destroyed this great beautiful countryside forever. With or without Disney, the raw future of this area faces the marching drumbeat of Washington edging m ISiisinoss cV Sei vieo .

As measures of how well the schools are doing in increasing the graduation rate the state uses composite scores above the bottom 25 percent. For 4th and 8th graders last year those scores were essentially unchanged at 89 percent in 1993 compared to 90 percent in 1992 for 4th graders and continuing at 89 percent for 8th graders. Statewide results dropped from 86 to 85 percent for 4th graders and remained at 82 percent for 8th graders. One measure the state uses to determine how well schools are doing at educating elementary school students is the percentage of 4th graders in the top half of composite scores. For the local elementary school last year that dropped to 54 percent from 74 percent in 1992, while the state percentage remained at 63. As a measure of how well schools are educating middle school students (those in 6th, 7th and 8th grades) the state uses the percentage with composite scores in the top 50 percent. For Rappahannock last year that dropped from 65 percent in 1992 to 56 percent, while the state percentage dropped from 59 to 58 percent. As a measure of how well schools are educating secondary school students the state uses the percentage in the top half on the composite score FAUQUIER LIVESTOCK EXCHANGE, INCORPORATED * Regular Sales!

Last year there was a slight increase locally, 69 percent compared to 68 percent in 1992. Statewide that figure remained unchanged at 61 percent. Statewide those percentages change very little from year to year. Locally, especially in a small school system like Rappahannock’s, fluctuations can be expected and probably reflect the relative strenths of particular classes more than educational practices. Other gains for the schools reflected in the OAP include an increase from 21 to 67 in the percentage of those taking Advanced Placement tests who scored 3 or higher, a decrease in the drop out rate in grades 7-12 from 4 to 2 percent, a decrease in dropouts in grades 9-12 from 6 to 3 percent, a decrease in dropouts among special education students from 9 to 3 percent, and an increase in the special education students between 16 and 21 years old who have paid or nonpaid work experience from 6 to 70 percent. Attendance was off in 1993 compared to 1992. The OAP uses the percentage of students who missed 10 or fewer days from school. For the local public schools as a whole that dropped from 81 to 60 percent, for special education students it dropped from 43 to 26 percent, for kindergarten through 5th grade from 97 to 68 percent, for 6th-8th grades from 92 to 59 percent, and for 9th-12th grades from 54 to 48 percent. Statewide those percentages in 1993 were 70 percent overall, 52 percent for special education students, 76 percent for elementary school students, 70 percent for middle school students, and 63 percent for secondary school students. Other measures in which the schools did less well in 1993 than in 1992 were the percentage of graduates earning the advanced studies diploma, which dropped from 46 to 37, the percentage of graduates who had completed a typing or keyboarding class, from 66 to 62 percent, an increase in the percentage of “overage” students in 4th and 8th grades and a decrease in the percentage of elementary and secondary students who passed all four tests of physical fitness.

Bingham’s suggestion that the theme park would be s boost to the local tourist industry, but Piedmont representative Charles K. “Pete” Estes did comment, “I can’t see spending tax money on a brochure at this point ill time. I don’t know of anything we can do but look at our ordinances,. and we ask the Planning Commission to do that.” r Stonewall-Hawthom District representative Robert Anderson noted that Culpeper County is doing many things to attract business^ “There are some factions that wish' we’d closed the gate on (U.S.) 211 when they moved out here. I’d hate to see us advertise,” he said. “I don’t mean advertise to live here,” Col. Bingham said. “There are only 2,700 homes paying the freight for the county...We’ve got to come up with some way to bring money in and take the pressure off the real estate tax.” He suggested the county explore the possibility of passing a “meals and lodgings” tax. County Administrator John McCarthy said that for a county to pass such a tax, it must be approved by the voters in a referrendum. * With little discussion the supervisors approved an update to the emergency operations plan and adopted the six-year secondary road plan. VDOT resident engineer Robert Moore said improvements to a> bridge on Route 637 had been taken', out of the six-year road plan would be handled with the mainte-; nance budget. He said the state was estimating more money would bi»available for road projects. He alsd said he expected most of the work OH. the four-lane project on U.S. 522-211' would be completed by the end <rf April and eastbound traffic would beT separated from westbound traffic, . Z The board asked Mr. McCarthy to write to people at Virginia Teclr responsible for the Extension Service budget urging them to continue to fund an agriculture agent for Rappahannock County. They postponed until the May meeting appointing a replacement for Allen Stokes as a member of the Planning Commission from Piedmont District. Mr. Stokes, who served as chairman for many years, has asked not to be reappointed. The board signed a resolution thanking him for his service.

Open Theatre Set For This Weekend By KAREN HENDERSON Rappahannock Ncwa Contributing Writer Actors and performers from a four-county area are joining forces to be part of Ki Theatre’s spring production, Open Theatre. This coming Friday and Saturday, April 8 and 9 will be the focal point for the talents of many different community members in two different evenings of rollicking and unusual mini-plays and readings, all offered for pure entertainment. The brainchildren of Ki Theatre Artistic Director Julie Portman, Open Theatre will provide an expanded forum for local actors and directors, showcasing their particular talents in each respective field. Participants range in age from toddlers to seniors, and each night’s selections will offer something for the entire family. Friday evenings, the hilarious parody on marriage, “Marred Bliss” (spelling correct) that has been performed at a number of local weddings will be seen, along with a scene from a play by Sam Shepherd. Two quite different variations of the same piece, “Bread,” will be featured to illustrate the subtleties of good direction, along with other dramatic and fun goodies filling the bill. Saturday night is the best for children, with an altered playbill that includes a musical puppet show, a reading form the T.S. Eliot poem, “Journey of the Magi,” and original musical clowning selection, along with “Rupert’s Birthday,” a monologue about the birth of a cow, and a reading with accompanying pantomine. Both Friday and Saturday nights, 24 young homeschoolers whose parents belong to HEAR (Home Educators’ Association of Rappahannock) will present “The Snowman Who Overstayed,” a melting saga. Rappahannock County neighbors featured in Open Theatre include well-known herbalist Kathleen Maier in “Madwoman of Chaillot,” Beth Levick and the Eclectics in “Frou, Frou,” Chris White and Howard Coon in “Lie of the Mind,” along with Tutt Stapp-Harris, Virginia and Bob Scott, Cathy Kiley, Linda Heimstra, Joyce Abell, Jean Goodine, and former resident Stuart Eiland. Look for performances by these folks on both nights. Tickets are just $6 for adults and $2 for children, and are available by calling 675-1616. Seating is limited, so reserve early. Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Home schooled children rehearsed for “The Snowman Who Overstayed,** to be presented both nights. II Program To Celebrate Artistic Activities On Friday, April 15 a Celebration of Student Creativity will be held at Rappahannock County High School. The Celebration will feature a culmination and sampling of the year’s arts activities including projects that Artists-in-Residence, Laurie Marshall and Sharon Wyrrick, have created with students and teachers. The exhibit will open at 6:30 p.m. in the Commons Area of high school and be followed by a performance in the Auditorium at 7:30 p.m. The exhibit will include a showcasing of Harriette Rosenblatt’s art students at the high school. This is a wonderful opportunity to see the range of visual art works that the students have produced over the year and to meet Ms. Rosenblatt. Liz Blubaugh’s Spanish classes will exhibit storybooks that they have produced in Spanish. Also featured in the exhibit will be “aliens” from Beth Gall’s Earth Science class, “computer dances” from Vicki Eastham’s Problem Solving/Computer Lab class, animal masks from Ms. Rosenblatt’s art classes and a mural from Jeanne Grimes’ Geography classes. The performance will exhibit the “Web of Life” mural produced by the students at the elementary school under the direction of Laurie Marshall and serve as a backdrop for a performance directed by Ms. Wyrrick including: Cindy Wayland’s French 4 students dramatizing fables of La Fontaine (and wearing the animal masks produced by the art classes), dramatizations and readings from the storybooks from Liz Blubaugh’s Spanish classes, an interpretation of the “Web of Life” mural, Ms. Wyrrick performing a dance theatre work that features costumes designed from recyclable materials by the Art 4 students and more. A special treat will be the feature guest speaker, Dr. David Synder, orthopedic surgeon. Dr. Snyder is well known in addition to his medical practice in Warrenton for his humanitarian work all over the world. His thoughts and comments about the “Web of Life” will bring an inspiring focus to the connections between us all. The residency of Laurie Marshall and Sharon Wyrrick in the public schools this year has been generously supported by the Virginia Commission for the Arts, Drug-Free Schools and private donors. Mathews Arm Campground To Remain Closed for Years Mathews Arm Campground in Shenandoah National Park will remain closed for the next five years due to continued funding deficiencies parkwide, Superintendent J.W. Wade announced this week. The 180-site campground, located at Milepost 22 along the Skyline Drive in the Nroth District of the park, has not opened for a full camping season since 1989. “We continue to have to make difficult operational choices in light of our overall needs,” said Supt. Wade. “We still have limitations on staffing and financial resources to operate the park.” He said that, although a muchneeded funding increase in 1994 will allow restoring some operations that had been curbed in recent years and filling vacancies that had been left open longer than normal, there are still continuing deficiencies. *We are completing an analysis of our projected needs and future funding outlook, and we’ve concluded that our infrastructure is deteriorating faster than we’ve been able to keep up with it given the funding sources normally available. “The number of leaky roofs is increasing, utility systems are breaking and our aging motor vehicles are becoming unsafe and expensive to operate,” he said. Supt. Wade explained that as in the private sector, deferring investment in infrastructure repair and replacement significantly increases the expense and probability of failures. “We plan to use the estimated $500,000 in savings from not operating Mathews Arm Campground for the next five years to directly re-invest in our infrastructure needs,” Supt. Wade said. “This will give us a start in reducing the deterioration, but we may need to take further actions in the future.” According to Larry Hakel, North District Leader, Mathews Arm is a self-contained campground that can be closed entirely without affecting any other part of the park operation. “Under current legislation, only a small portion of the camping fees collected comes back to the park, and it doesn’t come close to offsetting the expense of operating the campground,” Mr. Hakel explained. “If the equation changes, and we are able to retain revenues to directly offset the expense to operate it, we’ll reconsider our decision to keep the campground closed.” Supt. Wade said park staff will continue to work closely with local visitor bureaus and Chambers of Commerce to inform visitors of the availability of privately-owned campgrounds adjacent to the north end of the park. A listing of nearby campgrounds has already been prepared in cooperation with the Shenandoah Valley Travel Association and the Foothills Travel Association. Tennis Lessons Offered Local tennis professional Hunt Harris, in co-operation with the Rappahannock Parks and Recreation Association, will be offering a series of tennis clinics in April at the county park. Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday afternoons and evenings are available times for Hunt, and final scheduling will be based upon public response. A minimum of three students per class is required.

Talk of the Town, A New Shop Opens By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Talk of the Town, the new gift and accessories store at the comer of Gay and Jett streets in Washington opened officially last Saturday, but shopkeepers Mary McCabe and daughter Elaine Kramer held a preview opening, complete with plenty of food and beverages, on Friday evening. Many friends and passersby stopped in to see the newest shop in town, brimming with new inventory. Mrs. McCabe and Mrs. Kramer first seriously discussed opening a store together last October, shortly after Elaine’s marriage to local cabinetmaker Peter Kramer. Mr. Kramer provided a space for them in the front of his building on Gay Street, and helped with the construction. After looking at other businesses and doing research into what type of store and inventory would be good for Rappahannock County, they began visiting trade shows in New York, Atlanta and Washington, D.C. “It was hard picking merchandise that is affordable but different and unique,” said Mrs. McCabe. “Our goal is to make it very easy to shop with us,” she added. Neither woman has had her own store before. Mrs. Kramer has a college degree in biology. Mrs. McCabe has a background in marketing, and that, coupled with Mrs. Kramer’s artistic flair, is the combination they hope will bring them success as storeowners. The store offers “something for everyone” and yet does not give the feeling of being cramped. The back wall is mirrored completely, giving the feeling of a wide open space. Prices range from $4.50 to $100 for jewelry, and there is a large variety. Some inexpensive pins have farm scenes, flowers and animals. Rappahannock Mudworks wind chimes, plant hangers, and other ceramics are stocked here. They are produced by Flint Hill resident Ken Welk. The inventory includes sweatshirts with Washington or Rappahannock County embroidered on them. The same designs will be available soon on short-sleeved polo shirts. Hand puppets are already popular. Talk of the Town offers free gift wrapping, and is open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahaif Shop keepers Mary McCabe and Elaine Kramer show off the inventory in their new store, Talk of the Town.

You can touch God.” “Can I see God?”, the tiny voice went on. “Yes, my child; with each morning’s dawn. As the birds in the heavens swoop and sail along... You can see God.” “Can I hear God?”, the little one then wondered. “Yes, you can; in every clap of thunder His voice rings out casting any doubt asunder... You can hear God.” “Do I know God?”, the innocent one then mused. “Yes, my love; you need not be confused. For if your senses you wisely use... You will know God.” God is waiting to speak to a child in your life this Sabbath. “Let the little children come to me” (Matt 19:14).
