Gun Taken From 12-Year Old Girl Sheriff's Office Called In and Parents Notified By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer A 25 caliber semi-automatic weapon was taken from a 12-year old girl at Rappahannock County Elementary School last Thursday. The girl, a student at the school, also had with the weapon a clip with two bullets in it. The clip was not in the gun, but was in a bookbag with it. Rappahannock Sheriff John Henry Woodward reported that the girl had apparently also brought the weapon to school Wednesday and showed it to other students on the bus ride home. Some of those students reported the incident, and administrators were waiting for the girl when she got off the bus Thursday morning and brought her immediately to the school office. When they searched her bag, they found the weapon and notified the sheriffs office. Captain Jeff Brown took posses sion of the weapon and interviewed the girl. Her mother was called and she took the girl home. The School Board was scheduled to consider the case Tuesday evening. School Superintendent David Gangel sent a letter home to parents Thursday evening that said “a student was discovered possessing a firearm on Rappahannock County Elementary School grounds.” The letter notes that School Board punishment for such an offense can be as severe as expulsion. “The School Board views weapons in school as an extremely serious violation of policy,” the letter notes. Dr. Gangel said there had been other incidents involving weapons on school grounds. Some involved knives, some ‘look alike” guns (toy guns), one incident involved a gun that did not work. In one case the student was expelled. He said this See Gun, Page A-8 i - I Old Rag Bulletins Commissioner of Avenue Office Hours Extended with Lt ^5p m to assist taxpayers deotph:r r Wolf's Rep.

April 25, RCHS WSA Debates Sewer Needs By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Members of the Water and Sewer Authority considered what to do about what they see as increasing problems with sewage in the county. i Chairman Eugene Leggett said the county needs to do a study on the waste disposal needs of the county now and what they are likely to be in the future. He said then an engineering study of how those needs can be met would be the next step. Member Charles K. “Pete” Estes noted that the school system will have to have a package treatment plant for the elementary school by 1997 and that the School Board is investigating the cost of a 15,000-gallon system to handle just the elementary school, a 25,000gallon system that could handle both schools, and a 50,000-gallon system that could handle a third school or that the county could reserve part of for the general commercial district. He said it was not yet clear whether this would be a school project or be assigned to the WSA. v “It would be up to the Board of Supervisors to assign it to the WSA,” member Carson Johnson commented. “Is the Planning Commission taking this into consideration in setting up the commercial zone?” he asked. “I’m not concerned about egos; I’m concerned about the economic health of the county.” Eugene Leggett “It seems the county is not approaching this in a systematic way,” Mr. Leggett said. “The pieces are emerging, the schools, the commercial district the Town of Washington. There are going to be more of these things. We’ll probably do it the most expensive way. I’m not looking for this board to get a new challenge, but everyone knows the Town of Washington is a sewage nightmare. There are at least a dozen houses that would flunk a test. “Maybe it’s cheaper to expand the plant we have and keep the number of employees at a minimum than to build three systems,” he continued. “What the school is doing is a step in the right direction,” Mr. Estes said. “No one will do it until they are forced to,” Mr. Leggett said. “It’s just a matter of time if the Town of Washington is going to continue to function,” Mr. Johnson added. “We’ll end up with two independent organizations each with 200 customers trying to support these,” Mr. Leggett said. “We know how hard it is with our 150 customers.” “There is an economy of scale,” Mr. Estes said. “You need one plant operator per shift.” “One plant operator is half our budget,” Mr. Leggett noted. “Should we take the initiative and approach the Board of Supervisors, perhaps with a letter?” “I don’t think it’s our initiative,” Mr. Johnson said. “It’s up to the Board of Supervisors to assign it to us.” He added that the WSA’s primary responsibility is to take care of the Sperryville plant and that the state and federal government are going to take a hard look at that because the plant was built entirely with federal and state funds. “It’s not inconsistent for us to make a recommenSee WSA, Page AS Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan At the Old Dominion Hunt Races Saturday, Ben Venue Farm owner, Louise Eastham, left, presented a trophy to Emily Day, right, who won “The Ben Venue”a 3-mile race for lady riders. In the center is Ms. Day’s mother W.E. Mackay-Smith. 'Squire' Wins Timber Race Over Disqualified Competitor Topeador Wins, Goes to Pasture By BETSY BRANSCOME Rappahannock News Start Writer In just his second try over timber, Edge Hill Squire made the most of a 10-pound weight allowance and a strong ride by professional jockey Patrick Cooney to win the novice timber feature at the April 9 Old Dominion Hounds Point-to-Point. A capacity crowd of more than 3,000 poured into the Ben Venue Farm gates on a sunny Saturday. Racegoers were privy to some of the spring’s finest competition yet, with no less than 11 races taking place. In the day’s feature, Edge Hill Squire had many obstacles to overcome before his owners accepted any silver, not the least of which were 18 imposing post and rails on the threemile Ben Venue oval. “It’s just his second start over timber,” said rider Cooney. “But he jumped super for a [youngster.]” Held steady in the middle of the 13-horse pack early on, Edge Hill Squire moved into contention racing downhill to the second last fence. Front runner Big Boo Boo, Arch Kingsley Jr. up, was joined there by five others, including Warrenton winner Dumbarton Street, Peter Walsh up, and Edge Hill Squire. Experienced professionals Walsh and Cooney whipped and drove to the fence, with both fortunately meeting it in stride. A gutsy Dumbarton Street pulled away up the short stretch, however, putting five lengths between him and Edge Hill Squire at the wire. The real drama, though, unfolded as the riders dismounted to weigh-in before the trophy presentation. Cooney crossed the scales first, with the dial tipping to 155 pounds, as expected. It was when winner Walsh stepped on for the digital read-out, that the steward’s inquiry began. The number read “158.7,” 1.3 pounds less than the assigned weight of 160. “It is a tough way to win a race, but that’s racing,” said a pensive Cooney as officials checked and rechecked the accuracy of the scale. Following lengthy discussion, the stewards ruled Edge Hill Squire the race winner, disqualifying Dumbarton Street for carrying the improper weight. “I’m sorry the horse’s real owner was not here to see this exciting race,” said Alex Copson, father of Edge Hill Squire’s 11-year-old owner, Toby. “This is actually our first racehorse. “I am so pleased with the wonderful training job that Gus [Brown] and his fiance, Linda McGrail, have done,” the elder Copson continued. “We would hope to have him right to race at the Virginia Gold Cup meeting” on May 7. “Alex may be thanking us for all of our work, but all of the credit really should go to my dad,” explained Brown later, refering to his father, Dennis K. Brown, the former trainer of Edge Hill Squire who died earlier this year. “This horse literally wouldn’t jump at all when dad first got him. We count this as his last big project. I am so glad to see him win . . . for dad.” Though the Old Dominion Hunt Cup for owner-riders over timber shaped up as the form suggested, racing fans got their full money’s worth in witnessing the final lifetime start by the nearly indominable Tope ador. In his sixth consecutive Old Dominion start, Topeador had little trouble dishing out a 20-length beating to Fluorite for his fifth victory over the rolling course. “There is no way anyone in the division can beat us for [our sixth] series championship,” said rider Henry Wood Jr. “I decided that if Topeador won here, that . . . this would be his last start. He’s done everything I have asked him.” Millwood’s Emily Day won the ladies’ timber, her first victory, aboard her mother’s Sea Fighter. The Group I turf winner in Europe turned ladies field hunter led wireto-wire and jumped brilliantly, prompting his rider to say, “It’s just like riding a show hunter course at racing speed . . .”

Smith, Extension Agent. “One of the requirements after the Master Gardeners finish their course is that they donate 50 hours of volunteer service helping their local Extension Office,” continued Mrs. Smith. “This year the Master Gardeners decided to establish regular hours to work in the office answering phone calls and requests from local citizens,” said Mrs. Smith. One Master Gardener will work two hours each day. “This should really help us since Mr. Cunningham, our agricultural agent, recently resigned,” she added. “This is the busy season for gardening and home horticulture questions.” The Master Gardpner hours will be 10 a.m.-12 noon on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday and 2-4 p.m. on Wednesday afternoon. If! county residents cannot come to the Extension office during those hours, they can call or come by anytime during regular hours to leave a message or bring in their plant specimen for diagnosis. “This year’s Master Gardeners have a broad spectrum of interests,” commented Mrs. Smith. One person’s specialty is herbs, and another person’s is boxwoods. Several of the Master Gardeners are experienced growers of annuals, perennials, and vegetables. /' Pet of the Week: The featured dogs at the Shelter in Amissville this week are Lab pups, four-month-old males, found on U.S. 522 in Boston, very cute and friendly. • Hound/birddogs, one male, tan and white and one female white with tan ears, about eightmonths-old, found on Route 615 in Castleton. • Samoyed, eight-month-toone-year-old male, white, found on Route 681 in Sperryville. • Bull Mastiff/cross, Hooch is a five-to-eight-year-old male, tan, found on Route 231 in Sperryville.

REC Won't Build New Power Line By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer The Rappahannock Electric Cooperative made it official Monday in a press conference—they will use the Hazel Switch to get power from Potomac Edison for the Rixeyville substation and will not try to construct a new line from Speryville to the Rixley substation. Frank Andrews, Culpeper District manager, said the new proposal was “developed at the request of the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors.” He said the new route is “the most cost-effective alternative” and will have the “least environmental impact.” This plan is expected to cost REC $1 million, according to Nevins H. Wilburn, manager of engineering, who was present at the press conference. The work will involve upgrading the Hazel Switching station and installing “a double circuit” from there to an automated transfer swith closer to Culpeper. He said REC would also try to purchase the line from the automated swith to the Rixeyville substation from Virginia Power, and that cost is included in the $1 million. Mr. Wilburn said the work should be completed by October 1995. The route uses existing power line rights-of way, and following this route no new rights-of-way will be needed, Mr. Andrews said. “This will provide a new source with better service reliability than we had before,” he said. When REC approached the Board of Supervisors this past August, Mr. Andrews said the proposed new transmission line that wodld have passed by Red Oak and Bessie Bell mountains would carry 100 killovolts of electricity. The Potomac Edison line to the Hazel Swith carries 34.5 killovolts. Nevertheless, Mr. Nevins said that line will take care of REC’s needs “well into the future.” Mr. Andrews noted that the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors “made it crystal clear to us they wanted some other solution.” Piedmont District representative Charles K. “Pete” Estes suggested REC explore using the Hazel switch. Besides the opposition of the Board of Supervisors, REC also ran up against organized opposition from landowners along the proposed line from Sperryville to Rixeyville.

They urged REC to sell the service area in Rappahannock to Potomac Edison. Some landowners in the area are in the process of donating scenic easements on their property to the Virginia Outdoors Foundation. The original proposal to install the new line was made by REC in response to many complaints about power outages received from customers served from the Rixeyville substation. Mr. Andrews agreed that those customers had experienced more power outages than most customers served by REC and said most of the problem was with the line from Virginia Power coming into the station. / County Administrator John McCarthy, who was present at the press conference in Culpeper Monday, thanked Mr. Andrews for working out a solution that meets the needs and desires of the people in Rappahannock. “We appreciate it,” he said. Junior Garden Club Studies Bluebirds / By KATE MAY Rappahannock Newt Contributing Writer On Tuesday, March 22 the Rappahannock Junior Garden Club gathered together for their meeting.

Most of society’s problems land here eventually. It is, however, somewhat unsettling to learn that last week’s incident is not the first, and that others were not reported to the public. It is even more unsettling to realize that we will not know how this or similarly serious cases come out. If the School Board votes to expel the student who brought a gun to the elementary school last Wednesday and Thursday, the minutes of the meeting will read something like this: “The School Board voted to accept the Superintendent’s recommendation on Pupil Personnel case Number 147.” If the girl is sent to juvenile detention, that will happen in a juvenile court hidden from the public. If the judge orders the school system to accept the student back into school, that will also be hidden from the public. New laws do require that such a record go with the ( student to another school but keep knowledge of such a situation hidden from public view. We have watched the increasing frustration of school authorities, Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke and the Sheriffs Department with a juvenile justice system not equipped to deal with the seriousness of today’s juvenile crime. Laws to keep the names of juveniles out of the record were enacted when many juvenile crimes were for things like playing hooky and running away that wouldn’t even be crimes if they were committed by an adult. Now juvenile murderers are protected from public exposure. The intention was to keep juvenile offenders from becomming adult offenders. It is increasingly obvious that this isn’t working. Juvenile offenders learn that their actions won’t have serious consequences. Unfortunately their offenses tend to becomed more and more serious, until eventually they do have consequences. Perhaps the entire system should be scrapped and juvenile offenders should be publicly identified. However, even if the names are kept out of the record, the incidents should be reported to the public. In the meantime, parents, the school administration and sheriffs office deserve commendation for the handling of this case. They have treated it as the serious matter it is without over reacting or causing panic. EARTH DAY APRIL 22 , (<?<?* Teacher Appreciated To the Editor This is to express our concern and appreciation for Mrs. Henry, our English teacher at Rappahannock County High School. Everday she’d make us laugh about something. It would usually be something that happened in our 4th period English class or something that she had experienced in life. She was always there for us when we needed to talk about things...about anything. She would always have an open ear and mind. We want her to know that we are here for her and we hope that she and her family are doing well, and wish her good luck in Montana. Mrs. Henry, we will miss not seeing your smiling face in the hall and hearing your laughter from the classroom. You are a very strong person and may God be with you. FRAN OVERDORF and friends from the 4th period English class Boston Heart Support Groups Form To the Editor: The recent death of NBA Celtics star Reggie Lewis has sparked an interest into what constitutes a healthy heart. Unfortunately, maybe now there will be more research as to what makes the heart beat properly whether heart disease is present or not. 1 Millions of people suffer from benign palpitations and the like. The symptoms-and uncontrollable twitching sensation, much like a muscle spasm in your arm or leg, and dizziness-are very frightening. Ironically, many physicians call this a “human condition” because there is no heart disease and, in turn, they send their patients home telling them not to worry. But, how do you not worry? i I’m currently in the process of setting up support gorups via tele-1 phone on a national level. However, because of my kge (29) I’ve been questioned about my credentials. I tell these people that I have more thkn eight years experience living with this condition and that I’ve written a book on the subject. This satisfies their curiosity every time!

Box 556, Tiverton, RI 02878. And, I’ll be in contact with you. - PETER JOHN RAPOSA Tiverton, RI Robb Supported To the Editor: The media have had a field day telling us everything Chuck Robb has done that was wrong. Virginia Democrats should be reminded of some of the things he has done that were right. When Robb was elected Lieutenant Governor in 1977, the Virginia Democratic Party was deeply divided and dispirited. In that same election, we elected our third consecutive Republican Governor. We had one Republican and one Independent U.S. Senator. Five of our ten Congressmen were Republicans. Robb led an effort which brought former Democrats back into the Party and led to three consecutive races for statewide offices in which the Democrats between 1978 and 1992 won. Seven out of eleven of our congress members now are Democrats, including our first woman and our first African-American. Governors Baliles and Wilder brought their own strengths to their superior campaigns and administrations. Chuck Robb gave them a head start. Doug Wilder in particular made history by being the first African-American governor ever elected in the United States. As governor, Robb developed a lean bureaucracy and directed over a billion dollars of new money into education without raising taxes. Students in Virginia scored the highest in the South on SAT’s, surpassing the national average in every category for the first time. Robb is endorsed in 1994 by the Virginia Education Association. He brought women and minorities into high positions in state government. Robb was a leading founder of the Democratic Leadership Council, which did for the country what he had done for Virginia-brought Democrats back into the Party. It is likely that Bill Clinton would not be President toda^without the help of the DLC. Robb served as chair of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee in 1991 and 1992. He raised more money for the Committee than Rappahannock Heritage Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan This tulip poplar bud unfurls as April brings warm Spring weather. n had ever been raised before. Democratic senators were increased from 56 to 57. Democratic women senaotrs increased from one to five. JANE VITRAY Vienna Safe Haven Supported To the Editor: I write in support of Operation Safe Haven (OSH), a program designed to prevent County students from dropping our of high school before they complete the requirements for graduation. As one who has been involved in the County’s literacy program (LVA Rappahannock) for a number of years, I am keenly aware of the importance of preventing school dropouts. It is very difficult for adults, with all their adult responsibilities, to subject themselves to the discipline and tedium of learning the subject matter which they were exposed to and rejected as teenagers. In this case, prevention is far more effective and less costely than the cure. Adults who have completed eight years of schooling or less are considered functionally illiterate. This means that their reading comprehension, their ability to write, their use of language, and their math skills are limited, which in turn limits their job opportunities to low income levels. Statistically, there are many such people in our county. The pattern of functional illiteracy will be repeated from one generation to the next, unless steps are taken to break this generational cycle. This is where OSH comes in. I understand that OSH has operated successfully for three years under a federal demonstration grant. Faculty members and others at the high school are supportive of the program, which provides a teacher advocate as well as counsellors to students who have problems adjusting to the various disciplines of school and are for this reason considered to be “at risk.” Such students include those who are shy or inarticulate, lacking in self esteem, suffering from a non-supportive home environment, or affected by other factors that make successfiil high school work difficult. If we terminate OSH now, and let our “at risk” children fall behind in their work and drop out of school for lack of timely help, the result will be not only a life-long deficit for the children, but also a false economy for the county. This is so because undereducated citizens with minimal job skills are likely to make greater demands on the county for social serv ices later on. LVA Rappahannock helps some adults each year who seek to remedy their lack of education, but it can never reach all those who will remain undereducated if OSH is permitted to die; One final thought. LVA Rappahannock has epjoyed continuing broad support in the communty, both in dollars and volunteer services, since it was established four year ago. If the community is willing to support a cure for “Functional illiteracy,” which involves hard work for the learners and is often difficult of fulfillment, I should think it would jump at the opportunity to support a preventive program that would not only make possible a better life for the less advantaged young people in our midst but also save the county money in the long run. : The dollars we spend on our public schools should be regarded as an investment in the future—long term, not short term. Strong public schools are basic to our county’s social and economic well being, as they are to any community. And OSH is basic to the strength of our high school, given the endemic problem of “functional illiteracy.” When our taxes are devoted at the local level to the welfare of our children, as they would be if OSH is continued, the entire community benefits, both new and into the future. For these reasons, I urge our governing body to act prudently and vote the necessary funds to continue Operation Safe Haven. LEE BIRD Washington Candidates Supported To the Editor: My family and I have been residents of Washington for ten years. Our life and that of our children have focused on this lovely, historic town. Unfortunately, because we live just outside the town limits, we are unable to vote in the upcoming mayoral and council elections. Our lives are intimately affected by the town and the decisions made by the council yet we have no voice. Thus I am taking advantage of the letters column in this newspaper to express my views. I have often wondered how a town like ours, so small and personal, can have a mayor who resides in West Palm Beach and Alexandria? The day to day life of our community, the concerns and problems that residents must deal with cannot be truly understood from afar. The future, whatever it holds, will affect the people who live here now and the mayor and town council will direct our course. I, for one was delighted to learn that Stewart Willis, a full time resident, was willing to ati tempt to take on the arduous and demanding task of being mayor. I hope . everyone in town will give him their * support. We need a mayor whose life - is affected by the decisions he or she ' makes. 1 My second concern is the continuing conflict between business and residential interests. Our town is in real danger of being controlled and its destiny determined by a very powerful business, namely, The Inn. The Monopoly Game now going on and the race for control of the town council by candidates who would directly profit from decisions made by the council represents to me an unhealthy situation. In order to maintain a balanced and well rounded council I wish to support the candidacies of Janice Moffet, Steve Critzer and especially Newbill Niller, a life long resident of the town and one of our most successful farmers. His efforts to preserve the farmlands and rural character of our county as a supervisor began 30 years ago and he has been actively involved as a leader in passing our protective zoning ordinances. My husband and I have tremendous confidence in Newbill’s ability to make fair and balanced decisions and we know how much he loves and cares for our little piece of America. It is an example of the best this country has to offer. Newbill’s past tenure as mayor and as a member of the town council for many years is awitness to his care. Just compare; our town and county with what you* see around us. i Most important of all, use your! vote that I envy so much and think; of the future of this unique and liveable town. ; ROBIN B.

Draft'County Budget Has 69 Cent Tax Rate w v By SHARON KILPATRICK ■UpiMhannock New« Staff Writer ' A draft of the county budget members of the Board of Supervisors received last week calls for a 69 cent tax rate on real estate, an 11.3 percent increase over the current rate of 62 cents. Other tax rates, including the personal property rate show no increase. The budget projects a total of $8,995,829 in revenue and $9,125,453 in expenses, a difference of $129,624. “The budget includes no new spending initiatives, no new programs nor any additional or re-classified employees than are funded in the current year’s budget,” according to County Administrator John McCarthy. ; The draft budget includes full funding for the School Board and Library Board budgets, which do include new positions. Three percent pay raises, effective December 1, are included for county employees, including those whose salaries are set by the state. No raise is budgeted for Mr. McCarthy. In fringe benefits the budget proposes to pick up the cost of the state’s Group Life Insurance for employees. This will add about $5,000 f to the budget, according to Mr. McCarthy. The cost for health insurance for county employees is / projected to drop to $2,580 for a single subscriber, down from $2,797 this year. Trash collection is projected to drop from $400,000 this year to $250,000 next year, but maintenance of the county landfill, a category that includes improvements to the site is projected to increase from nearly $389,000 to about $551,000. Also in the public works budget is maintenance of county owned buildings and grounds. That is projected to drop from $890,700 to $879,500. In the Health and Welfare part of the budget there is a new category for the “Comprehensive Services Act.” The amount in that budget is $94,584. It replaces funding included for children in the welfare and school budgets. County social services director Beverly Bowen explained in the last meeting with the supervisors that the state is requiring each county to set up committees with representatives of various agencies to handle “at risk” children on a case by case basis. She said this approach has been helpful, with the efforts of the various agencies which handled such cases in the past better coordinated. ;/ i The supervisors will hold a public hearing on the school budget Monday April 25 at 7 p.m. in the high school library. A public hearing on the entire county budget is scheduled for 7 p.m. June 6 in the Court House. School Board Decides Not To Schedule More Days By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer The School Board voted Tuesday night to request a waiver from the state for a total of 12 days that were missed due to weather and not to schedule additional make-up days. The board also learned that state funding will be reduced an additional $22,400 because the average daily membership dropped tro 983 for the year through March. The budget was based on an ADM of 1,040. Once school started this fall Superintendent David Gangel said he expected an ADM of 997, and the board planned not to spend about $62,000 of the budget. With the additional reduction, Dr. Gangel said he was freezing spending for supplies and instructional materials. Elementary Principal David Smith presented the board with a plan for using the classrooms that will be freed up once the addition is completed in the fall. The band will continue to use a modular unit in back of the school. Remedial math labs will also be located in modular units. The plan calls for removing the dividers in two classrooms making them into regular-sized classrooms. A third classroom that has been divided will remain divided and the two speech therapists will use the smaller rooms. Those rooms, are however, considerably larger than the spaces they have been using. "Check the Classifieds for the best deals in town! Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Sharon Kilpatrick ‘Doctor’ John Toth delivered babies to waiting students. Students Learn Parenting Skills Principal John Toth dressed up in hospital “greens” delivered two dolls to students in the Child Care and Parenting class who were waiting to adopt them last week. Teacher Linda Robinson had prepared the class, taking them through chapters in the textbook on child care. They had also cared for eggs for a week, to try to prepare them for how demanding babies can be. Once the children arrived, the class chose next to name them. A democratic process resulted in the selection of Devin Deshaun and Kendra Lataye. They competed over who was to hold the babies, sometimes offering criticism of one another’s methods. Mrs. Robinson and Mr. Toth hope the class will persuade students to delay childbearing until they are ready and prepare therh to be better parents when that time comes. ^aCduHst 4. ^t&c&ttf wishes to announce that from April 15 to April 29,1994 y i we will donate to the Washington Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad a portion of our proceeds from the Sale of High Quality Chevron Gasoline.

Approximately 70 other 4-H and FFA members attended the conference. Prior to the conference, one of the requirements to attend was for each participant to do an interview at local cooperative. Then each one wrote an essay on what they had learned from the visit. Each member was sponsored by a cooperative. These include, Rappahannock Farmers Cooperative, Culpeper Farmers Cooperative and Rappahannock Electric Cooperative. The first day was filled with educational lectures, a 50 question truefalse test, and free recreation time. On Saturday the teens learned to manage a cooperative. By using a computer simulation program, they could rapidly receive results allowing each one to theoretically see how much profit or loss they would make in one year. All teams got something out of this program. “Becky said all participants on her team agreed that managing a cooperative is not an easy job,” commented Helen Smith, Extension Agent. On Sunday they competed their “who’s minding the store project” followed by another written test. Both tests combined with the interview work sheet and essay, helped determine who will represent the State of Virginia at the national conference. Becky Gallegos was amoung the 24 choosen. She will be traveling to Washington, D.C. in July to represent not only the state of Virginia but, Rappahannock County. “All three 4-H’ers made a positive impression for Rappahannock County. They have each learned valuable leaderhsip skills that will prepare them for any career,” commented Mrs. Smith.

T-, Coach David van de Graaff said, ‘‘Stonewall Jackson and Strasburg are really strong track teams, and it was a really good showing for the School.” Z Because the RCHS team does not have anyone running the 300 meter hurdles and 110 meter hurdles, they did not have the opportunity to pick up any points from these events. The meet finished with 58 points each for Strasburg and Stonewall Jackson, and 41 points for RCHS. The next track and field meet will be on April 13 against Clarke and Page at Page County. The RCHS softball team won one out of two this past week, defeating George Mason last Friday, 12-6. Clarke County beat them on April 6, 10-7. The RCHS baseball team did not have a good week. They lost both games by the slaughter rule, which states that if a team is already ahead by 15 runs after the fifth inning, the game is over. , Unfortunately, this was the case in both games last week. The Panthers lost to Clarke County on April 6, 2-19. At home, on April 8, George Mason beat RCHS 19-1. In both games, the first innings were devastating for RCHS. Clarke scored 15 runs in the first inning, and George Mason scored six. Coach Bob Howard said, “We are an exceptionally young team. Pitcher J.C. Welch has tendonitis in his shoulder, so we have been using young pitchers.” J.C. may return to the team this week. “I feel we are far better than we played and I am confident that we will turn it around,” he said. The soccer team had another victory at home Monday, defeating the Quantico Dependents School 2 to 0. They also played to a 3 to 3 tie with Central in an away game last Tuesday. Carlos Avelar and Eddie Sause scored the goals in Monday’s victory. Following the game Coach UK Maeyer said, “We have now a mature team that can play 80 minutes at full speed. The major factor is that they do not make any stupid mistakes any more. They don’t give goals away.” “This was a perfect team effort,” he said of Monday’s game. Coach Maeyer said that he will work on teaching his players how to bring a game when they have the lead “to an end safely.” In the Central game, Rappahannock was ahead 3 to 1 at halftime and still had the lead with five seconds to go, but Central scored in the waning seconds. Coach Maeyer said his team managed to hold on to the tie during overtime, but his players were tired. “It was a great game played at a high level,” he said. The soccer team was to play a home game with R.M.A. Wednesday and another home game with Central Tuesday.

All of these rates are lower than for last year, when the unemployment for Rappahannock was 5.8 percent in February, 8 percent in January, and 6.9 percent in December. The statistics for January were delayed about a month “by the annual benchmarking of the base fig ures and the implementation of a new statistical methodology to gather and compute the rates,” according to the VEC. The “new statistical methodology” resulted in 1,022 more people listed in Rappahannock’s January work force than were included in the December 1993 statistics. There were 979 more working and 43 more unemployed. The county’s workforce was listed at 4,069 in January, compared to 3,047 in December, with 3,994 employed and 149 unemployed, compared to 2,941 listed as employed in December and 106 unemployed. There was another much smaller increase in the work force in February for a total of 4,085, 3,907 employed and 178 unemployed. The VEC attributed the increased unemployment to the winter weather. Robert Hale-Cooper, job service manager in the Culpeper VEC office said, “I have no idea,” when he was asked about why the numbers increased so much. William Mezger, statistician for VEC in Richmond, said that numbers from the 1990 census were included in their statistics for the first time with the January report. Before that the statistics were based on the 1980 census, he said. *> 1 ; l' THE FIRST S AT UR DAY Officio! 1994 Virginia Gold Cup Pointing (datoil), "Ovor Third F»nc«", by Roy England THE 69TH RUNNING OF TOE VIRGINIA GOLD CUJP SATURDAY, MAY 7, 1 994 • GREAT MEADOW • THE PLAINS, VIRGINIA RACING , FEATURING THE RICHEST TIMBER RACE IN THE g WORLD, BROADCAST LIVE ON ESPN NETWORK TV 1 r 9 A FULL DAY OF CHAMPIONSHIP STEEPLECHASE RACING IN THE SPRING VIRGINIA COUNTRYSIDE ACTION ADVANCE TICKETS OIMLY • CALL 703-347-1 2 1 S FOR TICKETS AND RESERVED PARKING NO TICKETS SOLD AT GATE • CALL 1 -SOO-69-RACIS FOR TICKET OUTLET INFORMATION GATES OPEN 10 OO AM • OPENING CEREMONY 1 OO PM • FIRST RACE POSTTIME 1 :30 PM Car Passes, $50, which admit your car with up to six people, are available at the following locations.

He said normally a juvenile is released to the custody of a parent, but the Commonwealth’s Attorney could seek to have the girl placed in detention if a place is available. He said in cases of murder or rape, the state has to provide a place in detention. He noted that in surrounding counties there have been cases of juveniles brandishing weapons on school grounds. “Fortunately here so far everything is show and tell,” he said. Elementary school Principal David Smith said reaction from students and parents to the incident has been “surprise and shock,” but he said, “Reaction to the note was positive. They appreciate our sending out the facts so everyone knows what’s going on and knows that no one is taking the issue lightly.” Dr. Gangel said that there is a “heightened concern ’’about weapons in school because of incidents in other areas.

The Board of Supervisors has to deal with it. They can delegate it to us or whoever they see fit. Is there anything we should do but! sit and wait?” i “I don’t know,” Mr. Estes mused. “I’ve brought it up more times than I care to mention. No one wants to look down the barrel, of high taxes, but it will take one cent on the tax rate to run a sewer system at the school.” 1 “No one likes taxes less than I do, but treating it as it arises is going to be very costly,” Mr. Leggett said. “It will be if they contaminate the well at the school,” Mr. Estes said. Nothing was resolved in the meeting, but as it ended, Mr. Estes said he was leaning toward suggesting that Mr. Leggett formally present his concerns to the Board of Supervisors. • The WSA considered again what additional capacity there may be at the Sperryville plant without reaching any conclusion. They decided to start work on the budget for the coming year, agreeing, if possible, to adopt a budget that will not require a rate increase. m * \ #K *1 J ^There's never been a gift quite like this.

Open Theatre Provides Delight By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Ki Theatre provided a wonderful weekend of'theater for the county this past we'ekend. “Open Theatre” was a two-night celebration of the variety of talents available here and in surrounding counties, but it was far more than a two-night talent or variety show. i Both nights included a performance of “The Snowman Who Overstayed” by Claire Boiko, directed by Carol Lucking and Hallee Morgan, and acted by home schooled children from the county. The children were delightful, and the costuming, particularly of the dandelion chorus, was outstanding. Another highlight was surely “Marred Bliss” by Mark O’Donnell, directed by Cathy Kiley and performed by 'Stuart Eiland, Tutt Stapp-Harris, Linda Heimstra and Howard Coon. Nearly every line was a spoonerism, and double entendres were flying. A viewer was left amazed wondering how actors had managed to memorize such lines. Review [ Fauquier’s improvisation group taking off on the theme of gossip provided another Friday night highlight. i Saturday night brought Virginia Scott and Bob Scott with puppets in “A Southern Mountain Musical.” All three parts of this program were of high quality, but perhaps “How to Make a Puppet,” during which one puppet made another on stage was most enjoyable. “Frou Frou” was somewhat confusing, but the blended voices were delightful, and the audience enjoyed the participants clowning before the show and during intermission. Undoubtedly the highlight of the two nights was Joyce Abell in Ken Jenkins’s “Rupert’s Birthday.” Mrs. Abell began her stage career as one of the shepherds in Ki Theatre’s first production of “The Shepherds’ Play.” After performing in that role for two seasons during Washington’s Colonial Christmas, she added the role of the devil in “The Kings’ Play” this past December, a performance that caused this reviewer to comment, “She was bom to play that role.” However, her nearly 20-minute monologue portraying a woman remembering her 13th birthday, which also brought the birth of her young brother Orville and the peed for her to deliver the calf Rupert, was indeed theater as high art. Mrs. Abell also tried her hand as a director for “Open Theatre,” directing Kathleen Maier, Diana Morgan and Laura Crowe in a scene from Giradoux’s “The Madwoman of Chaillot,” a totally zany production. “Open Theatre” played to packed houses both nights. Rappahannock County is fortunate that Ki Theatre’s artistic director Julie Portman provided this opportunity for members of the community to perform. If our luck holds out, this will be the first of many such weekends. Library To Host Bosnia Program The Rappahannock Library will present a program on Bosnia at 2 p.m. on April 17, specifically a vist by three local medical men to the hospital in Sarajevo.

By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Margy White of Sperryville put 13,000 miles on her Subaru last year to volunteer for a job she loves. This is Ms. White’s second year as the chairwoman for the 1994 Garden Fair at the State Arboretum of Virginia at Blandy Experimental Farm in Boyce. Last year the fair drew 6,000 people during the Mother’s Day weekend, and it is expected to draw even more this year. It is the Blandy Farm’s largest public event. The fair will take plaice on May 7 and 8 and admission is free. Preparing for the garden fair is a full time job for Ms. White during the fall and spring. She coordinates with many other volunteers to raise new plants, mostly perennials, from seed, cuttings and grafting. One of the greenhouses is hers for four months in order to raise the plants for the garden fair. Besides the enormous quantity of plants for sale provided by Blandy, nearly thirty vendors will be set up to sell plants and other items related to gardening. Viewtown residents Jackie and Pooh Baker will be on hand with their classic perennial favorites, cutting garden plants and unusual day■; lilies. Lyt Wood of Tree Works in Washington will be another exhibitor. Rappahannock volunteers for that weekend will be Renate Chapman, Maggie Bracewell, Katherine Bull, Vivi Liverman, Celine Siira and Carolyn Emerick. Some of the more unusual plants which will be available are dwarf pomegranate, azalea Magnifies (white with pink stripes), yellow flag iris, Chinese toon tree,. jujube tree, golden chain tree, and hyacinth bean. Speakers at the fair will be Adrienne Cook at 11 a.m. Saturday, talking about “What’s New in Vegetable and Backyard Gardening.” Ethnobotanist Jim Duke will speak about “Herbs and Your Health” at 2 p.m. Saturday. “The Human History of Shenandoah National Park” will be the topic of Darwin Lambert’s talk at 11 a.m. on Sunday. His wife, Eileen Lambert, will discuss “Seeking Mushrooms and Other Wildlife in the Blue Ridge Mountains and Hollows” at noon on Sunday. At 2 p.m. Sunday, Phillip Watson will discuss “Perfect Scale and Exciting Detail: Recipe for a Successful Small Garden.” Other exhibits will include or chids, boxwood, bonsai, day lilies, and azalea. Children visiting the fair will have the opportunity to “plant a face” in a pie pan or make a topiary. Food vendors will also be on hand, including High on the Hog from Sperryville. Ms. White began volunteer work at the arboretum three years ago at the garden fair. She had signed up to work a half day, and ended up being there all weekend. “They needed people to help. The chairman of the next year’s garden fair asked me to help with that, and this year I am the chairman. You cannot help learn while you are here. It is just so much fun,” said Ms. White. Ms. White now attends classes at Lord Fairfax Community College. “There is so much knowledge for me to get a hold of. Working with the plants and experts here at Blandy I have learned a great deal. The people who work here are absolutely wonderful and knowledgeable.” During the garden fair, attendees are requested to bring their old plastic nursery pots, flats and multipacks for recycling. Hours of the fair are 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The state arboretum is located on U.S. 50 in Boyce.

L J Book on War Wrecks Enjoyed By JESSE POND Rappahannock Neva Contributing Writer Robert Balland is well-known as the discoverer of Titanic and Bismarck and as the author of two books about those spectacular wrecks. Dr. Balland’s latest work, written with Rick Archbold, The Lost Ships of Guadalcanal: Exploring the Ghost Fleet of the South Pacific, required two expeditions to the Solomons, the enthusiastic cooperation of the United States Navy, the Australian Navy, and the Government of the Solomons. It shows the successful coordination of many other organizations and people. The list of acknowledgements and credits is far too long to reproduce, however, it is gratifying to see a long-time friend included as one of the two “ships experts”: Chuck Haberlien of the Naval Historical center in Washington, D.C. The expeditions discovered and photographed 13 wrecks, and identified 12 positively. Ntimber 13 is either Little or Gregory, ex-four-piper destroyers that had been converted to fast traqnsports and had been lost in a “minor night action” in September, 1942. Poor Little and Gregory deserve more than just a footnote in a book that details some of the mqjor mistakes that put some of the major ships down in Iron Bottom Bay. My personal cavil about wreck Number 13 aside, this book is a masterpiece of fine underwaqter exploration and photography, with some outstanding fold-out paintings of the wrecks that were too large for the camera work. The text is smoothly whtten and merges unobstrusively with the magnificent photographs. Without a lot of bombast it details the fast-paced night action that brought out the very best in the men of both navies, Allied and Imperial Japanese. The Lott Ships of Guadalcanal, available at the Rappahannock Library, brings a lot of detail and focuses on a period of time when the “issue was in doubt.” A remarkable piece of work. Well done.

God has given an innate instinct to the birds so they will bond and keep their family-to-be warm; and when the babies hatch, one parent will guard the nest while the other searches for food to nourish their little ones. Eventually, however, the babies will be encouraged to fly from the safety of their nest to survive on their own...or to perish. Likewise, we are protected and nurtured as infants and youngsters, and when grown, face our future with some trepidation. Yet, we need not chance to perish. We can return to God's nest, for each Sabbath, as we worship in His house, our spiritual family is waiting-patient, warm, and nurturing as we all commune with the Creator, nestled in the love of God.

Sugar - Are Our lives Too Sweet? ; By HELEN W. SMITH i Extenaion Afent, Home Economics J At least 21 different forms of pimple carbohydrates are identified >s sugars. All provide calories but few nutrients. Sugar is a necessary ingredient in many products because Jt provides sweetness and bulk. Pealth Concerns Related To Sugar , Sugar has been dubbed a killer and accused of causing everything ‘from heart disease to diabetes to hyperactivity and hypoglycemia. The /act is that none of these accusations can be supported by sound scientific reserach. The only health problem strongly linked to sugar is tooth decay. Even here it is not the total amount of sugar that matters as much as when and how often sweets are eaten. Sweets frequently consumed between meals and those that cling readily to the teeth are more likely to promote decay. It’s especially important that teeth be brushed after each meal so that sweets don’t cling to you teeth. Why, then, should we worry so much about sugar? First, a very large number of sweet calories can get packed into a very small amount of food, making it easy to eat too many calories before your hunger is satisfied. 1 Second, sugar is a false pick-meup that soon lets you down lower than yoti started out. Third, at the same time that insulin processes blood, sugar, it also promotes that storage of fat. Thus, .every time you eat foods that require a large outpouring of insulin, you fatten yourself up a little bit. So sweet snacks between meals add more than just their caloric contribution. Fourth, it’s easy to get hooked on the sweet taste. The more some people have of sweets, the more they want. Finally, while sugar is not a direct cause of killer diseases, it can be -a health hazard of people already afflicted. For example, 10 million people with diabetes cannot safely consume large amounts of sugar without jeopardizing control of their disease. l • Sugar Substitutes Sugar substitues have few cal'bries and no nutrients. They provide sweetness but don’t have the functional properties of sugar and are adversely affected by heat. Fruit juices, honey, and molasses are offered as sugar substitutes for baking and cooking. However, the sugar they provide is no more nutritious than other forms of sugar. To Reduce Sugar To cut down on sugar try new recipes or adjust old ones by using one-third less. To add flavor, use more vanilla or spice. Satisfy your longing for something sweet with fruits for snacks and desserts. Eat baked sweets and candies less frequently and/or in smaller portions. Sugarless Blueberry Muffins 13/4 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon salt, if desired 1 tablespoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg 2 eggs 1/4 cup vegetable oil 3/4 cup orange juice 1 teaspoon grated orange or lemon rind 1 cup blueberries, picked over, rinsed, drained and lightly tossed with 2 teaspoons flour 1. In a large mixing bowl, sift or stir together the flour, salt, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg. 2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. 3. In a small bowl, beat the eggs lightly, add the oil, orange juice, and grated rind, and add this mixture to the flour mixture. Before the flour and liquid ingredients are fully combined, fold in blueberries, stirring gently. 4. Fill 12 or more well-greased muffin tins about two-thirds full with the batter. Bake the muffins for 20 to 25 minutes. Oatmeal-Raisin Muffins Oats give muffins a lovely texture as well as important nutrients. These are my family’s favorite oatmeal muffins. 1 cup buttermilk 1 cup rolled oats (regular or quick) 1/2 cup raisins 1 cup flour (either half wholewheat and half white, or all white) 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon salt, if desired 3 tablespoon wheat germ 1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened 1/4 cup packed light-brown sugar 1 tablespoon honey legg 1. In a small bowl, combine the buttermilk, oats, and raisins, and let the mixture stand until the liquid is absorbed, about 1/2 hour. 2. In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and wheat germ.1 3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter or margarine and the sugar until the mixture is light. Beat in the honey and the egg. 4. In alternating batches, add the flour mixture and the oat mixture to the butter mixture, stirring to moisten the dry ingredients after each addition. 5. Divide the batter among 12 well-greased muffin cups. Bake the muffins in a preheated 400 degree oven for 25 to 30 minutes.
