Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan ( Council Sets Policy On Town Hall Use Ij By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock Ncwa Staff Writer Over 25 concerned citizens attended the Washington Town Council meeting last week, which was the largest audience for a council meeting in over a year. After much discussion, the council approved a policy for rental of the Town Hall. The Town Hall will not be rented out, however, until the septic system is checked out; the liability regarding open flames, such as candles, is discussed with the insurance company; and ADA regulations regarding handicapped access are looked into. Also, the policy is open to amendment by the present members of the council, or new members elected to the council, who will begin their new terms July 1. One of the most discussed items was the number of people who will be allowed in the Town Hall at one time. It was decided that 70 persons would be allowed for theatre-style seating, 50 persons for reception-style seating and 35 persons for dinner-style seating. These numbers are less than numbers allowed for maximum occupancy by the BOCA and Virginia Fire Codes. , The hours available for rental will be 9 a.m. through 11 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays; from 9 a.m. through midnight on Fridays r : . i 1 Treasurer Candidate Explains Tax Lien By SHARON KILPATRICK 1 Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Copies of papers are circulating in the Town of Washington that show the Internal Revenue Service filed a lien in the Rappahannock County Courthouse on property “and rights to property” belonging i.o Louise van Dort, candidate for treasurer in the town council election^ | Copies of the lien were mailed ■anonymously to several town citizens Tuesday. The lien is for $61,193. It was for withholding taxes that were owed to _1 the IRS on employees of Then Maintenance, a company that operated in Maryland. Ms. van Dort said she was a vicepresident of the small firm and had authority to sign checks, but she is not responsible for the debt to the IRS. A bookkeeper employed by the company did tax returns for private individuals also. The bookkeeper used checks written to the IRS on the company’s account to pay income taxes owed by these outside individuals taking their money in cash, she said. Ms. van Dort said the book on nag Bulletins t ‘S-teasr Office will haTexSr^ReVenue’e tm-to 5 P- ™. tWM? h,°UrS free, 8 taxpayers with in«fm » y 1 to assist "formation. e texes or to provide AJsn q ».— , ' —«*auon. —° to provj fcS 67^,&rihtmaii °r * • 1 ( formation. — «<cr AtSa'^Ava,-,a6te register to vote in 1^,SO peoP,e can for absentee baIiotin^T„^,pn'maries or Council election frojjfo"the May Town &SdW^yPm' AP"'23 and “Pen Saturday f°r additional in/„’r^"'f Ca»675-' ®°wniiBeiit At A Glance 'f4-.?5 school Library. nday, Apnj 25, RCHS APffi£5** 10»m., Thursday, &„tLPm'"0”4M^2,Ud8et-2 keeper managed to get other company funds, and when this was discovered at about the same time the IRS came around looking for its money, “the company folded with me the only peon staying in the area.” The lien was filed in May 1991. It replaced another lien filed in September, 1987, which had lapsed. Ms. van Dort said the earlier lien was allowed to lapse because the IRS thought it could serve papers on another person higher up in the organization, but he agai i left the area and could not be reached. The amount of the lien did not in Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Philip and Alexander Strange raced to the finish in last year’s Fodderstack. crease between the two filings, and interest has not continued to be assessed after 1987, she said, but about two-thirds of the amount is interest on the original debt. She feels that the lien was filed on her simply because she was an officer in the company and still lives in the general area. “They’re just looking for warm bodies,” she said. “I was not the treasurer; I was not the bookkeeper.” „. “I signed checks made out to the IRS that were used to accompany other people’s tax returns,” she said. “A number of us signed them. It never occurred to me to question backup for checks made payable to the IRS. All I had was canceled checks to the IRS. I couldn’t prove anything. It was my failure not to see that our account number was not listed on these checks.” She said the IRS is not pushing the case and is content to leave the lien out there. She said she cannot afford to pay off the lien and does not feel it is her responsibility to do so. “I have paid all my taxes since I first stepped foot in this country,” she said. Of the lien, “It’s one of the things you know is out there, and you try to put it out of your mind because you can’t do anything about it,” she said. “It has taught me to cross all the T8 and dot all the I’s. I never send out a check without some identification of what the check is for, and I make a photocopy. I keep meticulous records of what are and are not my responsibilities, and I have done so since 1983 when that fell on my head,” she said. She said she was running for treasurer in the same spirit that she has volunteered for many projects in town. She noted that the treasurer’s position requires more hours than any other town office. “I volunteered because of the pleasure of living in this town,” she said. “I really like it.” and Saturdays, and from noon to 10 p.m. on Sundays. The ending times include clean-up time. After a vote by the Town Council, it was decided that no alcoholic beverages will be allowed in the Town Hall. Mayor Dean Morehouse said, “When we acquired the building, the Town Council accepted certain deed restrictions. The main one was that the Town Hall was to be used for public purposes. We do not want it used strictly for town meetings. We want it to be a nuyor asset to the community. Most of the problems voiced recently have had to do with parking and septic.” Two committees drafted proposals for rental of the Town Hall. The first one consisted of Brad Fisher, Susan Parrish and Ray Gooch. The second group was Susan Parrish, Janice Moffett, Newbill Miller, Diane Bruce and Steve Critzer. Council member Ray Gooch said, “At the first meeting about this topic there were only six people here. I am heartened to see this many people out tonight.” Mayor Morehouse read several letters from people regarding rental of the Town Hall. The first was from Louise van Dort, putting See Council, Page A-8 Rappahannock Newt Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan There were peach blooms on trees at Blue Rock Inn. Peach Crop Is Mystery By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Many Rappahannock peach growers say they expect a very small crop this year, but a few are expecting a large crop. The extreme cold of the past winter killed many buds. Others may survive and bloom but still not produce fruit. Manfred Call raises both peaches and nectarines to sell at his roadside stand. He said he expects to have only about 10 percent of his normal crop. “It looks pretty slim,” he said. He added, “It’s spotty. Some trees will have none at all.” Woodville’s Jerry Jenkins said he will have some peaches, “but not too many.” He said that he has crop insurance and wants to wait for the adjuster to look at his trees before trying to estimate his crop. Bryant Lee, whose family farm is off U.S. 522 and the Fodderstack Road said that he finds different situations depending on which block of trees he looks at. “A couple of blocks are very thin, and one block is doing all right,” he said. He said he could easily eat all the peaches himself that some trees will produce. He added that later varieties of peaches seem to be doing better than the earlier varieties. He said that it is still too early to tell, since some blossoms may look all right but still be damaged. He said it will be necessary to see how many peaches remain on the trees when the fruit is around 15 milimeters long, since damaged fruit can drop even after it starts to form. Leon Hutchinson has some peach and nectarine trees at his house on Jenkins mountain. He also takes care of the peach trees in the orchard owned by the Blue Rock Inn across from the high school. In both places the trees seem to be doing very well, he said. Fodderstack Race Heads Weekend Activities By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock New* Staff Writer As of April 15, 120 runners had preregistered for the 16th running of the Fodderstack 10K, scheduled to run at 10 a.m. this Saturday. ' Registration at the starting point, the warehouse near Settle’s Grocery in Flint Hill, will be permitted until 9:45 the morning of the race. The cost is $17. Transportation by bus will be available from Washington to Flint Hill. The bus will leave from in front of the courthouse promptly at 9 a.m. Several of last year’s winners have pre-registered for the race, including Eva Smith Memorial winner Jason Waters, and Mark Jenkins, both in the 13-18 age group. They are both Rappahannock County residents. Many Rappahannock families will be participating again: Dennis, Cheryl, Megan and Michael Fairbrother; Philip, Merrill, Lily and Alexander Strange; and Brian, Adam and Austin Bouffard. Frances Foster will be returning. She has been in the race for over ten years. This will be the 16th time that Lowell Owsley of Jeffereonton will be running. He has been .in every race since the beginning. Andrea Dukakis, first last year in the 19-29 age group, will be running. Also returning for the women will be Catherine Lee and Linda Garlet, both in the the 36-39 age group. Last year's first place runner in the 30-34 division, Brian Brown, has also pre-registered.

A large yard sale will be held, and plenty of kids’ games, costing 25 cents. Environmental information will be available, as will food and drink. RLEP president Hunt Harris will be leading a hike to White Oak Canyon this Sunday. This will be the first of a series of hikes to local sites. Interested hikers should meet at 3 p.m. at the county park or at 3:40 p.m. at the White Oak Trailhead. Call Mr. Harris for more information at 636-3066.

Mayor Candidates Discuss Town Issues .By CINDY MAHAN Baf*^iaiumck New* Staff Writer .Both candidates for mayor of the >/ Town of Washington were interviewed this past week. When asked if the town of Washington needs a sewer system, the present mayor, Dean Morehouse, responded, “I definitely think we need to assess this. The town does have sewage problems. I have a few grant applications for studies to do this. I hope to use community block grant funds to do it. A sewer project would be much like the water project. With the cooperation of the Council, we can assess and implement a program that comprehensively addresses this critical need. We need to plan, identify the problem, cost the problem and look for the funding. I am not thinking of a septic system; I am thinking of more of a passive system. Maybe we can get Health Department approval to do a regional drainfield for the town.” In response to the question “Do you liave any suggestions about any specific changes needed in the ordinances or comprehensive plan?”, Mayor Morehouse said, 1 am really happy with them. The Town Council has done a really good job on that, maybe the best job in the town’s history* It was evident in the meeting last week that people have been educated about the zoning in this town.” When asked if he thought the presence of The Inn is good or bad for the town and why, Mayor Morehouse responded, “The Inn is good for the town and the town is good for The Inn. They provide employment. They are the most charitable organization that I know of in the county. The tax base now saves each home in town about $1,300 a year, and it comes from the meals and lodging tax. That money comes primarly from outside the community. It has allowed us to create a real conservative financial plan for the town. The Inn is a world class restaurant and I am not sure many of us appreciate that.” Regarding his residency here, Mayor Morehouse said, “It is a parttime job and I am a part-time resident. My heart is in Washington as well as my commitment to the town which is displayed by the countless hours and time I spend each month on the town. I spend at least ten hours a week on town business, and I am doing all the administration for the water system. The budget for the town has gone from $13,000 to $130,000 and I think that is quite an accomplishment. The town has $71,000 in the bank.” “The town allocates about $12,000 a year for the fire department. We pay for the 4th of July fireworks display, which costs between $3,000 and $3,500. Both these amounts are budgeted for. The town pays bills for the fire department di in tCANCER soomri moker Help a friend quit • Minor work done on site • Reasonable ' Rates Sail Jay Chlldrey 703-675-1684 | Real Esfaifce Eileen M.

We have kept good physical controls on our budget,” said Mayor Morehouse. Mayor Morehouse said that he has no vision of growth for the town right now. He said, “I see no current need to expand the boundaries right now. It is more of a county issue. If the county expands and we have more development around Washington, then the county and town will jointly decide what the best course would be. I do not see a need right “The Inn is good for the town and the town is good for The Inn.” Dean Morehouse now. We were a town of 250, 50 years ago, and now our population is 198. “I believe there should be a definite separation of church and state. The church should not get involved in town issues and vice versa. You should not use government to control church issues,” said Mayor Morehouse. Regarding the job as mayor, Mayor Morehouse said, “I take my commitment seriously. It is not just for the two month political season we are going through now. I have been mayor for eight years, and have missed only two meetings.” Mayor Morehouse was first elected mayor as a write-in candidate in 1986. He ran unopposed, and was re-elected in 1990. He says, “I am pleased to have had the opportunity to serve with my fellow council members for the past eight years. During these two terms, council has accomplished a great deal for the town in an open and frank environment.” Stewart Willis has been a full time resident of Washington since 1983. He has been a long time member of the Planning Commission, and served as Chairman of the Board of Zoning Appeals. Mr. Willis drafted the town’s Comprehensive Plan. He said, “I believe members of the town government should live with the consequences of their decisions. I therefore believe that the members of town government should spend sufficient time in town to feel those consequences. ” About the subject of a sewer system for the town, Mr. Willis replied, “Yes, we absolutely need a sewer system. We really have not changed since the Inn installed their drainfield ten or fifteen years ago. I think that some people who have moved here recently have increased the level of concern. It is becoming an increasing important issue. Septage from the town ends up in my pond and in Ed Barton’s pond. Now we have an opportunity to do something about it since other things are out of the way.w Mr. Willis added, “We have to -fairy Qodmotfitri FORMAL GOWN RENTALS Large Selection Sizes • Colors • Styles BY APPOINTMENT (70S) 675-342* Evenings | DAWN FISHER I Washington, VA 22747 f explore the interest the county has in sewage problems too. We have to develop the relationship with the town and the county. I want to change that; we need to get along with the county. We need to work together to try and solve our problem and the county’s at the same time.” Mr. Willis said that he has written a lot of grant proposals for the government. He said, “A sewer system would be a lot more expensive than the water system, and getting free money is becoming increasingly difficult. In answer to the question "Do you have any suggestions about any specific changes needed in the ordinances or comprehensive plan?”, Mr. Willis replied, “It is premature to do that at this stage of the game.” When asked “Do you think the presence of the Inn is good or bad for the town and why?”, Mr. Willis said, “I think it is good. The town began an evolution of revitalization in the early 1970’s before The Inn arrived on the scene. I do not agree with everything they did. They are a vital organization that has reached their high point and I think they feel the need to grow. If they do I hope they do it in a conservative manner. The northern end of town feels some pressure because of the traffic on those small roads. I plan to listen to the town and make decisions in the best interest of everybody.” When asked about the possibility of the town expanding its boundaries in the future, Mr. Willis replied, “I “Yes, we absolutely need a sewer system...It is becoming ah increasing important issue. Septage from the town ends up in my pond and in Ed Barton’s pond.” Stewart Willis wrote the last comprehensive plan. The policy of the town has been status quo. I know that we have the potential in future years of having increasing pressures of growth in the community and the county as a hole. I would like to get some people involved with the first level. It is not just housing. If we do expand as a community, there will be increased demands on government. We need Challenger Stewart Willis Mayor Dean Morehouse to address those issues and resolve them. So many areas of potential expansion of this town do not have easy road access. You really have to think it through.” About the subject of the town’s financing of the fire department, Mr. Willis said, “I would have to understand the real issues before I comment further on it. Mr. Willis said, "I I believe we must actively seek to retain the Episcopal Church in the town at its current location. We must work with the vestry to seek solutions to their problems of growth. We must not simply wait for them to come to us.” * He added, “I view the Town of t Washington as having many aspects and interests which must be balanced by its government. For a town of such small size, the diversity is incredible. We are a residential center, both for full time residents and those who seek on their weekends escape from the crowded Washington, D.C. area. The town should run itself, not with outside folks no matter how generous they are. This is really the reason I took on running for mayor. I L HTJRRY, LAST CHANCE I A Celebrity *">is Coming to Town!

We do not need any more in Washington’s election for the Town Council. 1 r In the slightly less than two weeks left before the election we hope the candidates and their supporters will concentrate on their dreams and hopes for the town’s future and the reasons they support one or more candidates. We hope they can keep their reasons for not supporting other candidates to themselves. We believe that all of these candidates, at the most basic level, want what they perceive as best for the town. We are satisfied that none of them pose a threat to the town’s fiscal health. i We consider the effort to discredit Ms. van Dort disgraceful. Let’s have no more of this sort of thing. ( REC's Powerline “It’s fun to win one once in a while.” That is what County Administrator John McCarthy said leaving the press conference called by the Rappahannock Electric Cooperative to announce that REC would not pursue a new power line route from Sperryville to its Rixeyville substation. ^ We agree with him. Organized opposition by the Board of Supervisors, affected landowners and county environmental groups caused REC to choose instead to take power from Potomac Edison at the Hazel Switch in Culpeper County. Rappahannock citizens have been spared the sight of another electric transmission line running through some of the county’s loveliest land. We are particularly fortunate that Piedmont District supervisor “Pete” Estes is familiar with electric utilities generally and the specific history of electric power in Rappahannock County. He knew of the Hazel switch and was able to suggest it as an alternative source of power.

He was vigorously defending Oliver North’s "telling a white life lie to a blackguard, lying bunch of politicians in Washington.” The reason he supports Oliver North is the reason I am against Oliver North. A candidate for public service should not himself be the main focus in a campaign, rather the candidate should be merely the vehicle to put a focus on th$ issues he hopes to press once elected. Regardless of whether or not one believes Mr. North was justified in , his actions toward Congress, his candidacy and his term in office would always be characterized by he being the issue rather than by the issues he may support. J. MICHAEL SHARMAN Culpeper N. Miller Supported To the Editor: Washington voters are fortunate to have a candidate of Newbill Miller’s caliber and experience seeking government service. Over years spent covering local government for the Rappahannock News, (watched Newbill as a super visor, county planning commissioner, planning district commissioner, school board member, mayor and councilman. We weren’t on the same side of every issue, but we agreed far more often than we disagreed. And always, I found him to be interested, honest, well informed, well intentioned and willing to listen. While I might have quarrreled occasionally with his votes, I never doubted his deep commitment to and love for the political subdivisions he represented-Rappahannock County and the town of Washington. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could say the same thing about every elected and appointed official? DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Washington Problem Is Discovered To the Editor Thanks to Ieesha Bulin, I’ve been made aware of the more recent studies available with the truth about treated lumber. Since my husband, Rick, and I organized the building of the pirate ship at the Rappahannock Recreation Center we would like to do what we can to protect children (of all ages) who play there from the harmful effects. Basically, we have learned that treated lumber is “treated” with chromium, cooper, and arsenic. The studies particularly focus on the ar senic. This substance never diminishes. At any time, regardless never diminishes. At any time, regardless of the age of the structure, the arsenic one rubs on his hands from touching it is above acceptable levels by the EPA. What leaches into the soil is worse. And burning the wood is very highly toxic. You can find these facts and more in Organic Gardening (Jan. 1994). 1 Some coutries have banned its use, others “highly discourage” its use. What we can do now is to apply a water sealant on the wood to protect our children and to minimize its harmful effects I am calling on the community for help to raise the money for the sealant and to come out and join in a painting day to apply it. Please call me at 937-6146 if you wish copies of these sources of information or if you wish to donate time or money. The Mothering Cooperative has some money in the treasury. Would members please call me with their opinions about using the money for this project? Thank you again Ieesha for your relentless efforts for the good of us all. KAYE KOHLER Amissville Community Thanked To the Editor Members of the Sperryville Volunteer Rescue Squad would like to thank the community, the judges, our MC, the contestants and their sponsors, and the group sponsors for their continued support of the Miss Rappahannock Pageant. This is our major fund raising event of the year. The group sponsors this year were John’s Barber Shop, Bill Payne’s Auction, Child Care and Learning Center, F.T. Valley Grocery, Blueridge Technologies, Inc., Culpeper Farmers’ Cooperative,'and the Rappahannock National Bank. Special thanks to the Inn at Little Washington and the following local businesses for their donations for our raffle and door prizes: Country Manor, Four & Twenty Blackbirds, Shaw’s Services, Inc., Sheppard and Grandson Maintenance, the Sperryville Emporium, Appetite Repair Shop, Choose and Cut Christmas Tree Farm, Country Cafe, Faith Mountain, Flint Hill Public House, Flint Hill Store, High on the Hog, Mr. and Mrs. Carson Johnson, Long Mountain Nursery, Northern Fauquier Joycees, Ochs Foods, the Church Mouse and the Sperryville Antique Market. The appearance of six former Miss Rappahannocks was a highlight of the evening for the large audience, and will be a continuing feature of the pageant. Again, our sincere thanks to our community and friends for their support; your participation contributes greatly to or efforts to better serve you. GERALDINE PAYE and ANN MARKHAM Co-Chairmen, 1994 Miss Rappahannock Pageant A Parent Responds to Virtues Survey By ROSE ANN SHARP Rappahannock News Contributing Writer I received a questionnaire soliciting parent input in the development of a character education program. Answering the questions of the survey left me with a lot to say. I think that an underlying base for any “Character Virtues Education” will be a strong focus on modeling by the staff. I do not feel that character development needs to be “taught” or “tested.” I think that learning to treat each other with respect and sensitivity and kindness can be more naturally influenced by modeling and rewarding. Unfortunately, many of our children do not have appropriate role models at home. They certainaly do not have appropriate role models on television. The constant sarcasm and cynicism modeled for them by our television families has served to sharpen their insluts and disrespect as they look for their applause in the classroom. In our schools as well as our homes, modeling appropriate behavior and rewarding appropriate behavior is the key. It is my opinion that all staff, including poaraprofessional aides and substitutes, needs to have comprehensive group training in a program similar to STEP (Systematic Training for Effective Parenting). This program would teach (or review) communication with children, teaching young children to cooperate, fostering responsible behavior, child development, identifying and re sponding appropriately to misbehavior and logical consequences of misbehavior. By having 100 percent of the staff attend the same workship and have a common language and vocabulary in behavior management and an underlying philosophy based upon mutual respect, every adult would begin to accept the responsibility of being models for all of our students. After this training, I suggest that a very specific list of do’s and don’t’s be developed, signed off on by each staff person, and remain in their file. These might include: 1. “Shut up” will not be used under any circumstances. 2. “Stupid,” “idiot,” “jerk” and other derogatory names or nicknames will not be used. 3. Children are not to be dealt with in anger, but only after a cooling-off period. Dealing with rude and disrespectful children is a daily occurence for teachers, and it is a challenge to not respond in kind. 4. Staff is not allowed to use their bodies in a physically intimidating manner toward children (poking, pushing, pulling, jerking, etc.) Touch is to used only in a positive manner (pat on the back, hug, handshake, handhold). 5. Sarcasm is not to be used with children. 6. Children are to be spoken to in a respectful tone of voice. 7. Disciplinary action will be a logical consequence of behavior whenever possible. (Clean up messes made, scrub walls they dirtied, leave the class until they can behave appropriately, replace damaged property, ask forgiveness for a rude remark, etc.) 8. Communcation will be individual as often as possible. Reprimands will be made privately with children in the same way that good supervisors reprimand their staff in private. 9. “Please,” “Thank you” and other common courtesies are expected at all times and under all conditions. In other words, children will be treated as we expect them to treat us. Behavior that is not allowed by children should not be allowed by adults. This will begin our teaching by modeling. One way to teach by rewarding would be grade-level weekly assemblies that would be used to highlight outstanding achievements. These achievements might be in the area of academics (the highest math teat grade, the spelling bee winner, the highest science test grade); in sports (the fastest mile time, the most situps, a home run in kickball, etc.); in creativity (the best social studies project, the most interesting play, the most creative rap song, the greatest idea about a solution); and in good citizenship (helping a classmate up after a playground fall, returning lost money, helping a fellow student with a problem, opening a door for a teacher, keeping control in a volatile situation). The rewards at these assemblies need be nothing more than applause and a handshake as their names are called out in the public assembly, I don’t hink that weekly certificates are necessary.: These assemblies could also be used as a forum for students concerns to be voiced and addressed in a formalized and socially acceptable manner. There could be a procedure for getting on the agenda of the grade level assemblies. It could also be an opportunity for teachers to voice some concerns and ask for student input in some creative problemsolving. After several months of such assemblies, perhaps chairing these assemblies could be turned over to class officers. These assemblies could then be used to reinforce appropriate behavior in public functions by allowing a grade-level, freeplay time to follow for thirty minutes. All children who exhibited respectiful behavior during the assembly would be able to join the others outside for some wellearned free-time. Children who were rude and disrespectful would go back to their classroom to tvdrk on an assignment. This would begin our program of recognizing and awarding character virtues. Another way to reward character virtue and strong morals would be to institute a court system at e$ch grade level. The sytem could be as complex as the grade level of the children would allow. Court could be See Virtues, Page A-5

Voters Can Sound Off Often By JOHN GOOLRICK The bizarre twists and turns that have marked Virginia politics these past few years may make it possible this year for those who don’t want either Charles Robb or Oliver North in the U.S. Senate to vote early and often against them. Robb, the incumbent, is in a three-way primary race for the Democratic Senate nomination. Republicans will choose between North and Jim Miller at a Richmond convention a week or so earlier. I If no suitable independent comes forth should North win the nomination, them some Republicans who detest North and don’t want Robb might be tempted to go into the Democratic primary and vote for either State Sen. Virgil Goode or Sylvia Clute. Since there is no party registration in Virginia, anybody who wants to vote in the primary just has to show up. Republicans who don’t want either Robb or North might figure that by nominating Goode (or less likely, Clute) they would have at least a candidate with no whiff of personal scandal to vote for in the fall. Many who felt Jim Miller was gaining some momentum were discouraged when a campaign ploy to cast light on North’s treament for emotional problems blew up in his face at a press conference when he said he had consulted a psychiatrist for a mood disorder of some kind. That incident may have been the straw that broke the Miller campaign’s credibility and put the North Virginia Through Both Barrels o campaign back on track. Though the GOP convention will probably make last year’s contentious gathering look like a Sunday school picnic, North remains in the position of being a heavy favorite. All sorts of questions can rightfully be raised about party loyalty and a moral obligation to support the nominee, but the plain fact is that many Republican, thousands in fact, vow they’ll never vote for either North or Robb. The state’s senior senator John Warner, a Republican, has said he might back an independent over North if it comes down to that. State Sen. L. Douglas Wilder has hinted he may seek the senatorial seat as an independent if Robb and North are nominated. Wilder is reportedly backing Goode for the Democratic nominations so his timing would have to be exquisite to run as an independent. There are rumors that former Secretary of the Navy Jim Webb or former U.S. Attorney Richard Cullen also might consider running as independents if Robb and North are the nominees. While Robb is the favorite to win the Democratic nominations, Goode’s candidacy cannot be discounted, particulary should Wilder urge his constituency to support him. Interestingly, some moderateconservative Democratic leaders, those who have been closely aligned with Robb in the past, have been squiring Goode around as he seeks signatures on petitions to get on the primary battle. Just when nobody thinks things can get any more curiouser and curiouser in state politics than they already have, something happens to disprove that notion. For instance, it is conceiveable that two years from now both of Virginia’s Senators could be independents. If an independent such as Wilder, Webb and Cullen won this year-and it's within the realm of possibility-Wamer may well run an an independent in 1996 since rightist elements of the party despise him and are likely to attempt to deny him the nomination. And North must be a bit concerned by the notion that some fellow Republicans who don’t want him under any circumstances might get three shots at him—first the the GOP convention, then in the Democratic primary trying to nominate a stronger opponent for him than Robb, then again in the general election by voting for an independent.

The Good Citizen of the Week could sit as - judge. The jury could be selected at random from a group of well-mannered children in the classroom.

Both sides will have the opportunity to -prepare and state their case, present "their witnesses, and be heard. ComWinication and public speaking will be'taught without formal lessons! Court could be videotaped and replayed later to critique the process and individual performance of the lawyers. Having the Good Citizen of the Week sit as the Judge reinforces the import we place on people exhibiting strong moral character. Having a jury of peers is yet another way to empower our children to learn how to behave responsibly as stellar citizens in our community. We recognize that many children do have selfdiscipline, are interested in being fair, and are good listeners. The power our young students will feel as they participate in this process will be a wonderful motivator for them to exhibit good moral behavior. In‘Conclusion, I think there are many ways that we can “teach” character virtues in the public school, but I am opposed to a specific “Character Virtues Class” that would have a set curriculum, tests at the end of each unit, and them probably a standardized test at the end of the year. I am adamantly opposed to anything like that. I do feel that by modeling respectiful behavior to and for all of our children-including the rudest and most challenging childrenand rewarding our model students in public assemblies as well as allowing them to participate in a court system of their peers, we can SHOW our children how we behave at Rappahannock Public Schools. We don’t just tell them what we expect-we SHOW them everyday, in every way, without exception. Program On Preachers Offered Jon Heddleston will be the guest speaker at the regular quarterly meeting of the Rappahannock Historical Society to be held at the Rappahannock Library, at 3 p.m. on Sunday, May 1. Mr. Heddleston’s topic will be “Itinerant Colonial Preachers.” Circuit riding preachers were used by almost all denominations to reach churches and congregations in the valley and on this side of the mountain. When the preachers arrived in the neighborhood, he would marry, and baptise, as well as have an allday meeting before moving on to the next church, which would be as much as 40 miles away. Mr. Heddleston’s great-greatgreat-grandfather was just such a preacher in West Virginia. His diary is the basis for Mr. Heddleston’s study. He has researched further into the activities of such preachers. Captain Howard Holschuh, President of the Historical Society, invites all interested persons to come to the meeting and to participate in the program. There will be time for questions and reminiscences after the program. A social time and refreshments will follow. • Invitations • Napkins • Bridal Books • Accessories • Announcements \ Come in and see our beautiful collection of contemporary wedding stationery.

Summer Quest Offered Again Summer Quest, a Regional Governor’s School, sponsored jointly by the Culpeper, Fauquier, Madison and Rappahannock county school systems is for identified gifted and talented students in grades five through eight. It will be held in the Culpeper County Middle School from August 1 to 12. Hours are from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. One class, “The Mountains,” will be offered at Rappahannock County High School. The theme for this summer’s program will be “Connections: Bridges to Understanding.” The program offers intellectually challenging and enriching experiences. The four courses offered during the program provide learning experiences which will challenge the students’ abilities and encourage creative and productive thinking and expression. A depth and breadth that often cannot be achieved in the regular classroom will be emphasized and facilitated by a low teacher-pupil ratio. 1 . Classes will include Musical Theatre, which emphasizes choral music, dance, basic acting, set design and construction, costuming ami publicity; “The Mountains,” a hands-on approach that allows students to learn about the unique area in which we live; “Investigating Your Future,” which encourages students to use imagination and creative abilities to become an active part of their future; and Art, where students will create oil paintings and 3-D works. Students must be identified as being gifted in the area of the class. Although neither grades nor credit will be given, the curriculum and reports on individual student participation will be sent to each student’s school. Costs for the program , are paid for from state and local funds. Students may be transported from RCES to Culpeper, or they may be transported by parents. Students provide their own lunches. Applications, available from Maggi Piper at the Rappahannock School Board Office (987-8773), must be returned by May 6. Notification of acceptance will be made by June 6.

Highway Environmental Study Could Delay Disnev Proiect By LOU HATTER BiHUhworfc New* SUIT Writer Statements by Walt Disney Co. executives apparently made the best case for a full environmental impact review of proposed improvements to Interstate 66, a federal official said this week. Virginia transportation officials met with representatives of the Federal Highway Administration Monday in the FHA’s Richmond office to “go over the details and the logic behind the decision,” according to Mark Tumlin, the FHA’s division administrator in Richmond. Tumlin said the complete environmental review is necessary because the next lower level study, called an environmental assessment, requires a finding of no significant impacts. “The general feeling was that with all the issues involved here,” Tumlin said, “that a high-level document was appropriate. There’s a feeling there anil be some significant issues involved — that’s not to say they are insurmountable — but significant.” The full environmental review means the transportation improvements, and their impact, will be scrutinized by a variety of federal agencies, interest groups and the public. The process, including public hearings, could take from six months to more than one year. The FHA became involved, Tumlin explained, because federal approval is needed for the new interchange planned to serve the Disney’s America theme park. “That is considered a major federal action by all of our rules, and we have to address the consequences of that action.” Since Virginia is financing the improvements, he added, if the 1-66 upgrade had been limited to additional lanes the FHA approval would not have been required. When an access point is added, however, “you add a new funnel and you’ve already got a congested situa f # tion on 1-66. We’ve got to look at how to mitigate that impact,” Tumlin said, adding that he and other federal transportation officials are “reasonably sure” that the additional lanes will help mitigate the impact of the interchange. “But we won’t know for sure until we get the study.” At a meeting last Wednesday at the FHA’s Washington, D.C. office, Tumlin said Disney’s own statements led officials to decide to mandate the full environmental review. “There were statements made on several occasions by Disney, about how critical the package was, and statements ... that there was no deal if they couldn’t get the transportation package.” Both Disney Co. chairman Michael Eisner and senior vice president Mark Pacala threatened to move the theme park elsewhere if the General Assembly killed Gov. George Allen’s $163 million financial aid package, which included $131.5 million in transportation bonds. Although both the House and Senate initially slashed Allen’s plan the full package eventually passed, including $49.1 million in improvements specifically earmarked for the Disney project. Any delay in opening the park could affect the state’s ability to pay the annual $6.7 million in debt service on the bonds, which it plans to recoup from increased gasoline and sales taxes paid by Disney’s America visitors. Disney has guaranteed the $3.8 million in debt service for the bonds directly benefiting the park, but expects state tax revenue will more than cover the costs of the aid. Disney spokeswoman Mary Anne Reynolds said she had no comment on the connection between Disney officials’ remarks and the FHA decision. She said it is “highly unusual for this kind of a decision to occur so early in the process.” Ms. Reynolds said Disney’s plans remain unchanged. “It is not clear what the review i will entail,” she added, uso it’s not clear what kind of delay might be in* volved. But any delay means a delay in desperately needed road improvements.” Tumlin said state and federal officials have been talking for some time. “We knew we had a role in the access point [interchange] approval, we knew we were going to be involved.” Since the transportation improvements require an interchange, and federal approval, “what that does is it ties us ... if we don’t take this federal action you don’t have Disney — and if we take it you have Disney.” Taken at face value, Tumlin said, “There’s a direct link between our federal action and Disney being there, and we decided a full impact statement was warranted.” The environmental review represents the first serious hurdle for the $650 million project, which Disney hopes to open in 1998. State officials said, when the package was approved, that they felt the lowerlevel environmental assessment would be sufficient to gauge the project’s impact. l Disney — Take a Second Look, one of the groups opposing the park’s Haymarket location, said the FHA decision is good news. “We think it reflects everything that we have been saying, that this has some significant impacts that will affect both national and regional resources,” said spokesman Chris Miller. Unlike the state and local approval process, Miller added, the National Environmental Policy Act, which mandates the review, “encourages public participation.” Even the scope of the review can be shaped by comments received from agencies and the public, he explained.

Library Program Demonstrates Grimness of Situation in Bosnia By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newa Staff Writer The picture of conditions in Sarajevo presented at the library Sunday by members of the medical team which went there from Warrenton was grim indeed. Dr. David Clark began by recounting a history of the region. The Serbs are Eastern Orthodox, while the Croats are Roman Catholic and many of the Bosnians are Muslim, he said, but they are all decendents of Slavic tribes who migrated into the area between the Sixth and Eighth centuries j “There is long-standing bad blood between the Croats, Serbs and Muslims,” he said. Dining the Second World War the Croats, who often were allied with the Nazis, “committed a series of masacres that spawned rebellion.” Following the war the Serbian nationalists lost out to the communists, he said. But under Marshall Tito the area had 35 years of peace. Dr. Clark said that he frequently saw Tito’s portrait on the wall during his stay in Sarajevo, and Tito is “viewed fondly.” He said that during that period Bosnia was transformed from an agrarian to a “modem industrial society.” Sarajevans belonging to all three ethnic groups lived in harmony. Thirty-five percent of the marriages were of mixed ethnic heritage, he said. When Bosnians voted for independence from the remainder of Yugoslavia most of the Army was Serbian. There was a “mass exodus” from the Army barracks. They headed for the hills around Sarajevo “with tanks, guns and artilery,” he said “Within a few days they were shelling Sarajevo, and that has continued for the last two years,” he said. In Bosnia now the Serbians control 70 percent of the country, while the Bosnians control about 20 percent “mostly little safe zones,” and the Croats control about 10 percent, he said. The Serbs had guns and armaments, and the Croats can easily get them. “The Bosnians had no such luck,” he said. “The Bosnian soldiers don’t have guns. They say, ‘Give us guns to defend our homes and children,”’ Dr. Clarke explained. He said the slaughter of Bosnians, which the Serbs describe as “ethnic cleansing is genocide in my mind. We’re witnessing again what we witnessed 45 years ago.” Dr. David Snyder agreed saying, “This is not random fire. They’re Arundel Named Racing Vice-Chair Arthur W. Arundel of The Plains has been named to the new post of Vice Chairman of the Virginia Racing Commission. The action came at the Commission’s meeting in Richmond on April 13 at which the body set its major three-day June conference. The VRC plans to approve this summer one of six license applications for Virginia’s first race track, including one proposed site in Loudoun and one near Haymarket in Prince William County. Mr. Arundel is publisher of the Times Community Newspapers including the Rappahannock News. targeting pregnant women and children.” He added that they also torget mosques and the city’s libraries with documents that chronicle the history of the area. They also destroyed the Maternity and children’s hospital. Dr. Snyder described the process of getting the team into Sarajevo. They received almost no assistance from the United Nations, he said. In fact, the UN bureaucracy interfered with their mission. Dr. Snyder showed a series of slides, showing the damage to the city, injured and dead people, especially children, and the doctors at the hospital where they lived and worked for two weeks. He said there is virtually no money in the dty and American cigarettes have become currency. He said the only real source of food is what can be brought in by the United Nations. Most of the people are malnourished, he said. They keep constantly moving when they are outside so they do not become targets. He said young people keep communication going with an underground radio and smuggling mail in and out. “They are incredibly honorable people, and the family is everything,” he said. He visited a hospital that specializes in vascular surgery and was very impressed with the quality of work being done there in spite of a lack of heat, water and almost anything considered esential. He said the doctors they met did not ask for things but showed the Americans around so “we’d see what they need.” He showed a slide of a poster. ; “The Serb says goodby to his son and goes out and kills a child his son’s age,” he explained. “Only recently are people waking up to the insanity of this behavior.” He said the Bosnians are waiting for American help. Since the team returned to the United States, they have been working on organizing help. They have received publicity which is helping. They have been speaking to groups, particularly in schools. He said Rep. Frank Wolf, who has been to Yugoslavia three times, has been very helpful. He said one way to help is tp make contributions to the Bosnian Relief Mission, IAPM, Arlie, VA : 22186.

A Mother Gives Blood ilium By REGINA CRAM I was still chuckling as I left the Red Cross blood drive today with my two younger children in tow. As I’d gathered our coats, someone has turned to me and said, “I hear you have four young children. Why do you give blood?” “Are you kidding?” I laughed. “When I donate, the volunteers watch my children for me, they feed me, they tell me how wonderful I am, and I get to put my feet up for twenty minutes. It’s a great deal!” Left unsaid was my other reason for giving, the reason which still chills me when I allow myself to remember. It was eighteen months ago at what was supposed to be the routine delivery of another healthy Cram baby. My obstetrician used to joke that his coffee was still hot after he deliverd my babies. But this baby was different. Just moments before birth, something went terribly wrong; I suffered a rare amniotic embolism which callapsed by blood’s clotting system. As the baby made her rapid appearance into the world, medical personel scurried around with worried looks and hushed voices. My husband stood by helplessly as he heard, “Not much time...extremely critical...prep more blood...can’t promise we can save her...” Grueling hours later, after emergency surgery and transfusions, he heard the sweet news that I was one of the lucky ones, one of the fourteen percent who survive this complication. It had taken the speed and skill of eight doctors, and the availablity of twenty-five units of blood to save me. A year and a day later I became eligible to donate blood again, and I could scarcely contain my excitement. My husband was baffled. How could I explain it to him? Somewhere out there are twenty-five people who bared their arms, fliched for £ brief moment, then watched (o<2 didn’t watch) as a pint of their life’g* blood was freely offered. All they re*« ceived in return were some kin<£! words and a cup of coffee from RedC Cores volunteers. Those twenty-fiv£ people did not donate because it wa$* convenient. They had to leave wor»» early or juggle a carpool schedule oiS miss dinner that night. It’s not thajjj they had nothing better to do; thejJJ donated blood because they knewr* that their pint of blood could make £ difference, and maybe even save £ life. £5 Mine is the life they saved. Yqu’<tj never know it if you saw me. I unj* just another overwhelmed mother? who looks healthy and exhausted;*; but those twenty-five people help&jjjj to ensure that a baby will grow ujjj knowing her mother, that a yopnqg. father could bring his wife home teZ grow old with him. Somewhere ouC there today, in some hospital corri^ dor, is another terrified young hUe£, band, or parent, or sister, or friendg! desperately hoping that his loved* 1 one survives, and that loved oh£ looks an awful lot like me. £ So I gave blood today, and faf* toddler and preschooler came t<£ watch to see if Mama’s blood is red& just like last time, or if this time it iff. i green. They got Band-Aids on then I arms to match mine, and stickers,* 1 and a glimpse of the gift of life. yfjil ate cookies and drank our milk, and £ left with a little less blood and ; much fuller heart.

Coach Howard said, “Their pitcher, Ritenour, pitched a no-hitter through six innings.” Page County defeated RCHS last Thursday, with a score of 22-6. “This was a game I wanted to win. We were both winless teams, and we could have won it,” said Coach Howard. Jason Brown was the starting pitcher, through nearly three innings. Coach Howard said, “He did a nice job, and this was our best game offensively. We got six runs.” J.C. Welch, Paul Brown and Jon Diggs all had two hits. J.W. Welch also had two RBI’s. Brentsville’s team is undefeated, and continued their success by beating RCHS 23-3. “They are the best team in the league,” said Coach Howard.

►Council , From Page A-l forth her ideas about the rental policy. He also read letters from Page Anne Smith, President of RAAC, Mi trie and Bill Young, and Diana and Lee Bird, all supporting the idea of the Town Hall being rented for public uses. Town resident Frank Scott of Heritage House B & B spoke next. He said, “I would like to have small seminars and meetings here. I think the number of 90 (as the maximum number of people allowed) would be more logical than 70.” Local realtor Eileen Day said, "I was surprised about the problems with this. How do you arrive at the number of 35?” Mayor Morehouse responded, ‘That number goes along with the fire code.” / Ms. Day remarked, “All the years it was used it was not a problem. I would like to see a broader t use. I think the Town Council should have the final say regarding alcoholic beverages.” Town resident Fran Eldred noted, “I would like to see the original policy adopted. I think it should be at the Town Council’s discretion to okay the alcohol based on the application. There are almost 35 people here tonight and it.is not a crowd.” Phyllis Marriott, proprietor of the Foster-Harris House in town, said that the town should demand a hefty deposit when renting out the hall. Mr. Scott added, “You might need a schedule of fees for different events.” 1 Page Smith, president of RAAC, spoke next, saying, “I really did appreciate using the building. We did like having candles, and I think you should leave it up to the Town Council to decide what is allowed for each event. I urge you to have a waiver when non-profit groups ask for it.” Dan Lewis added, “I was at Waldron O’Connor’s birthday party and the RAAC coffeehouse here. It was not crowded. I would like the hours II changed to midnight and it might take an hour to clean up.” Town resident Skip Giles said, “The number of 35 probably came up because of the drainfield. I do not like the idea of drinking in the building. Things can get out of hand.” Mrs. Day noted, “Since the alcohol business makes people nervous, maybe you should not sell it.” Mayor Morehouse responded, “I think it will be a sticky, thorny issue, decided on a case by case basis.” Mrs. Smith said, “I think having the option of someone else to clean the building is a good idea.” Diane Bruce, a town resident, spoke to the members of the council. “Our committee did not make a significant change. The original suggestion was a maximum of 80 people, and we changed it to 35. We did not change the fee schedule, but we changed the security deposit to $50. We reduced the advance booking to six months. We suggested that alcoholic beverages be prohibited. I asked my neighbors to come to the meeting about this. There are very few residential sections of town any longer. I believe you also realized there was concern. Since the last meeting we have heard other concerns. Once people find there is a building to be used, it might become heavily used, such as the rec center. I am still concerned about the parking, septic and deterioration of the building. It was not a problem when the library had events here.” Mayor Morehouse responded, “When we purchased the building for $150,000, one of the primary issues was to protect the exterior of the building. The Town Hall is a meeting space by definition and we do not want it used just one night a month. We own the building and we have to be good stewards. I do not think it will get out of hand.” Council member Newbill Miller added, “The Town Hall should be used for the community and town, and I think we should adopt a policy that will be compatible for both uses. This will be a better policy as a result of the discussion tonight. The library was here for 20 years, and its uses were grandfathered. We need to remember that this is a residential neighborhood.” ! Treasurer Brad Fisher said, “I appreciate all the work the second committee did on this. They did a fine job. I have problems with a couple of things. Maybe we need some middle ground between the numbers. The Town Council needs to have the ability to decide on the application based on what the application is.” Mrs. Moffett said, “I live in very dose proximity to the Town Hall. I have spoken to my neighbors and they are all concerned. I think it is something we need to move into slowly to see what does and does not work. We can change the policy later on. We need to have a work session and work this out.” Mr. Gooch added, “You cannot think of every eventuality. You can always change it but you need to have some basis to start with. We should establish a basic policy. Under the policy of the second committee, Colonial Christmas would not have happened. We would not have been able to have people come in to see the dancers because of the 35 people limitation. We passed the hat after each performance to make money to fix or buy new colonial dress. The Inn’s bakeshop is for a scholarship fund for CCLC. The Town Council sponsored the Colonial Christmas for two years and I wish they still would. I do not think we need to adopt that kind of policy like the second committee came up with. We should encourage some sort of off-street parking. If you start off with a restrictive policy, word will go around town,‘Do not try to get the Town Hall.’ I urge that we develop a policy tonight. The restriction in the deed was broadened because we did not want to buy a building for $150,000 for one use a month.” “I think it is good to have public comment on this. None of these regulations are etched in stone and they can be amended,” said Mayor Morehouse. Regarding handicapped access to a building, Mr. Fisher said that the ADA says handicapped access is required if someone complains. The council took a vote among its members and passed the rental policy. Mr. Gooch said that he would like to see some limitations on the treasurer’s duties. Amanda Clark was Principal for the day last Friday. Student Enjoys Being Principal for the Day By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Amanda K. Clark, sixth grader from Rappahannock County Elementary School, was “Principal for the Day” last Friday. A student in Mrs. Rudolph’s class, Amanda was granted the honor of playing principal because she sold the most magazines as a fundraiser for the school. The funds from the magazine sales will go for school supplies and various repairs needed around the school. Obviously proud of being dubbed principal for the day, Amanda described her day. She had to do cafe teria duty, and visited classrooms on her own. The high point of the day was when she played the tambourine in the pre-school class. Amanda was certainly popular with Mrs. Capello’s class when she awarded the students free ice cream and extra recess time. Mrs. Capello in turn gave Mr. David Smith, the actual principal, a homework assignment. Amanda also was invited to eat her lunch with Mrs. Kidwell in the teachers’ lounge. i Second grade teacher Mrs. Ebom said of Amanda, “I was so proud of her today.” RCES Announces | Honor Roll f * ss Rappahannock County Elementary School announces that the fofc lowing students made the honor roB during the fourth grading period: $ Fourth grade all A’s: Amanda Weakley and Betsy Welk; A-B: Jonathan Clatterbuck, Tracy Clatterbuck, John Everett, Kristy; Fletcher, Kate Hutchinson, Whiner Keys, David Massie, Tony Payne* Lea Pyne and Brian North. v i Fifth grade aU A’s: David AndeiJson, Emily Bare, Dana Caldwell, Cohn Nichols, Chris Payne, Jeff Simeon, Amanda Sims, Jesse Smith and Colin Treaner; A-B; Lacey Adams, Samantha Breeden, Steven, Clark, Jamie Cox, John Davis, Ashley Dunn, Frances Gatewood, Chris Graves, Jennifer Green, Julie John; son, Cara Levick, Brant Marlettr Aaron Price, Kenny Robinson, Manx Russell, Jenny Waters, Ambef Welch and Joaimee Williams. ■ ~ •Sjj Sixth grade all A’s: Sonya Anderson, Lainie Morgan and Frank Paratore; A-B: Summer Alexander?

/ I* Community News • Obituaries , Rappahannock News • Real Estate • Classifieds WEDNESDAY, APRIL 20,1994 Glassblower Finds Booming Business With Suncatchers By CINDY MAHAN Vippahonnock N«w» StaffWriter Business has really picked up since Eric and Davette Kvames decided to sell their suncatchers in the I Faith Mountain catalog. Last year they sold over 4,000 of their cobalt blue suncatchers through the catalog alone. When Martin and Cheri Woodard, proprietors of Faith Mountain Company, first visited the Kvames in the fall of 1992, they asked for 48 suncatchers to start with. Within two weeks, an order came for 48 more. Then it became 48 a week. In the most recent catalog, Eric Kvames is one of the artists included as one of the “The Best of the Blue Ridge.” Mr. Kvarnes said, “I have carried these since 1985 and it has always been a good seller for me. It is the only way I can make a piece of glass that retails for under $15.” To produce the suncatchers for the cat Rappahannock News Staff Photos/Cindy Mahan Eric Kvarnes presses the mold into molten blue glass while Davette Kvarnes stands ready with the torch. Marshall's Show Offers Images of the Artist I By NED BITTINGER Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer Laurie Marshall’s portrait show supports the old adage that an artist paints a portrait not only of her subject but of herself as well. Laurie Marshall’s presence fills these rooms as much as her sitters do. Her genuine love for and interest in these people and for Rappahannock County is self-evident in the care and attention paid to the painting and presentation of these works. “River Children” a delightful portrayal of three children playing in a stream is framed with fish salamanders and crayfish circling the painting. Mythili Nakkisan the subject in “Resurrection Door” is surrouned by imagery from her life, water falls from her native India, baskets of fruit and even flames, the cause of her untimely death. The provocative titles of and imagery in her work give us tantilizing hints of a strong underlying spititual current in her life and work. Her father crouches down with extended hands by a glowing river in “Return Review ing the Gift.” In the “Vision of Blanche Doss Kennedy” one almost misses the ethereal figure in the background. Now that our curiosity about Laurie Marshall is piqued, more is revealed by her written composition accompanying the show, “Stories from the Dust in thi^ Comer. ” She writes, “The title comes from the fact that ultimately, after a short and precious time, we are united by a relentless transformation into dust. The portraits are painted and the stories told to extend the love of these lives beyond the dust.” The following stories are fascinating accounts of the lives of her subjects which are depicted with love and warmth and leave the viewer with the feeling that he has had an intimate view into the lives of local people and into the life of the painter herself. \ WCDS Schedules Arts For This Weekend A combination of art, music and theatre, the celebration will begin with an art show opening at 4 p.m. on Friday, April 22. The work of the school’s students since the beginning of the school year will be showcased. Included will be drawings in a number of media, works in pen ink and wash, paintings in acrylic and oil, along with sculpture and pottery, said Art Teacher Anne Underwood. The Weekend of the Arts, to be presented April 22 and 23, is an annual event at Wakefield Country Day School at Huntly. The Show will continue from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, April 23 in conjunction with Wakefield Country Day School’s yearly yard sale. Also, at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, April 22, the fifth, sixth and seventh grades will present the spring Musical, “Aladdin and His Wondful Magical Lamp,” directed by WCDS Music Teacher Robert Lauffer. First Community Hike Scheduled for Sunday On Sunday, April 24 the first in a i series of hikes and walks to special \ local places will take place. The series is entitled “Step-by1- Step,” and will be conducted by local educator Hunt 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. This is a special place indeed with numerous waterfalls cascading through mighty oak and | hemlock stands in the Shenandoah j National Park. Hopefully spring wildflowers such as trillium, jack-inthe-pulpit, bloodroot, bluet and geranium will be visible, and the additional magic of the waxing full moon will make this a particularly memorable event. Meeting times(s) and location(s) are at 3 p.m. at the county park and 3:40 p.m. at the White Oak Trailhead. The cost is free, though hikers should provide their own food and transportation. A flashlight and raincoat are good gear to take. Children are welcome with adult supervision. Contact Hunt Harris for additional information at 636-3066. alog has become full time work for the Kvarnes’, and he sells many other glassworks at craft shows during the year. The largest one is the Kutztown, Pennsylvania show, which runs for ten days. Mr. Kvarnes not only sells his wares, but does glassblowing demonstrations too. Mrs. Kvarnes draws the original designs for the suncatchers. The two designs in the catalog now are the sun and a heart. The design is cut into a linoleum block, which is then pressed into casting sand. Melted aluminum is poured into the impression left in the sand. This aluminum piece is called the stamp, and it is pressed into a blob of melted glass, leaving its impression in the glass. Mr. Kvarnes does most of the handling of the glass from the propane furnace which he uses, and will place a blob of melted glass on a table for Mrs. Kvarnes to stamp the design into. After she does this, she pokes a hole near the top edge so the suncatcher can be hung. The hole is then smoothed out with the help of a propane torch. Using a metal spatula, she transfers the piece to the annealer, which is a cooling oven which lowers the temperature of the glass very gradually to avoid cracking. The suncatchers spend about 10 hours in the annealer. Once the suncatchers are cool enough to handle, they are wrapped in paper and boxed, ready for delivery to Faith Mountain. If everything goes right, the team can press 75 suncatchers in four hours. It then take eight hours of work for Mr. Kvarnes to tend to his furnace to add glass, cook it down and get it ready for the next day. The temperature of the melted glass will be around 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit when Mr. Kvames dips out a blob for a suncatcher. Mr. Kvames’ brother Jensen also helps out a lot with the suncatchers, and is learning to blow his own glass. With his help, suncatchers can still be produced if his brother Eric is off at a craft show for a few days. Or, he can help Eric and give some time off to Mrs. Kvames to be with her three daughters. The whole project is set up at the Kvames’ business, Molten Media Glassworks, at Oldway Craft Village on U.S. 211 in Sperryville. Other artists rent space in the village, working on sculpture, woodworking, handmade paper, and painting. Because Mr. Kvames’ occupation is so unusual, he has become somewhat famous in the Mid-Atlantic art scene. He always does glassblowing demonstrations at craft shows in which he participates. He was on the Channel 4 news in Washington, D.C. earlier this year, and has appeared on CBS’s “This Morning” show. Last Friday he and another artist from Oldway Craft Village, who were participating in the Sugarloaf Craft Fair in Gaithersburg, were included in the morning news show on Channel 5 in Washington, D.C. He bills himself as “America’s most famous unknown glassblower.” Mr. Kvames said, “Faith Mountain has put several local artists in the catalog and that is to their credit. They have been a vital part of the community.” Mrs. Kvames added, “It is nice that they have tapped into the local market.” i J The finished suncatcher is ready for sale or packaging. \ 'Forever Ivor' Scheduled For Four Performances The Theatre at Washington will present Interact Theatre Company’s production of “Forever Ivor” by Nick Olcott, on May 7 and May 14. A musical journey though the glamorous career of Ivor Novello, a phenomenon of the British stage'for four decades, “Forever Ivor” takes the audience for a nostalgic ride back to a time when musicals were filled with glorious melodies and plots were drenched in overwhelming romance! The production comes directly from its world premiere performance at The Washington Stage Guild in Washington, D.C. Ivor Novello was a world-famous composer at 21. A film star at 27. A hit playwright at 31. He was the number one box office attraction of the British stage for twenty years. “Keep the Homes Fire Burning,” the unofficial anthem of the First World War, launched his career. He went on to captivate London’s theatre world with witty and melodic songs that rival Noel Coward’s best efforts. But Ivor easily surpassed all his contemporaries with his lilting, haunting, intoxicating love songs, hailed as the “Rudolph Valentino of Britain,” he was the greatest attraction the West End had ever seen. “Forever Ivor” is a musical review scripted by Nick Olcott. Twice nominated for a Helen Hayes award for his original work, Olcott delights in getting to know Novello. “Discovering Ivor Novello is like finding a wonderful, and totally unknown restaurant in a city you thought you knew very well,” he explains. “His lush music and clever plays come as a glorious revelation even to those well-acquainted with the theatrical gems of the heyday of musical theatre.” “Forever Ivor” is directed by John MacDonald, producing artistic director of The Washington Stage Guild. MacDonald, in addition to directing works by Ivor Novello’s com temporary, Noel Coward, directed both of Nick Olcott’s Helen Hayes nominated plays. Larry Vote, Interact’s resident musical director is directing the music, and Helen Hayes nominee, Linda Gamer Miller is choreographing the show. The cast for “Forever Ivor” includes Steve Cramer, a Helen Hayes nominee who captivates Washington audiences with his magnificent voice; Catherine Flye, a Helen Hayes nominee beloved for her tour de force performances in “Lettice and Lovage,” “ Shirley Valentine” and “Joyce”; Alex Hassan, a master of syncopated piano music if the 1920’s and 30’s; Rosa Lamoreaux, hailed by The Washington Post as the finest operatic talent in Washington; and Pedro Porro, a Helen Hayes winner for his outstanding performance in Sondeim’s “Sweeny Todd.” Interact Theatre Company, founded by Artistic Director Catherine Flye, is a collaboration of professional artists dedicated to integrating the performance arts in special high quality entertainments. Interact has become recognized for its fresh and innovative interpretations of Gilbert and Sullivan, as well as being a showcase for classic British comedies including the company’s 1993 hit productions. Curtain times for Forever Ivor are 4 p.m. and 8 p.m. on Saturday, May 7 and Saturday, May 14. Tickets are $12 and $10, with children half price and group rates available. For reservations and information call 675-1253.

From art works by high school students including the amazing senior Philip Smiley, to wondrous animal masks used to reenact French fairy tales, to clothing made from recycled materials, to elementary students enacting stories in Spanish written by high school students for young children, to Dr. David Snyders observations on the connections between the natural world and all its denizens, it was a fascinating evening. ( Pictured here are two small pieces of the evening. The top photo shows Teresa Hudson’s “Mystic Dragon.” Under that are Ashley Dunn and Emily Bare, who acted out a story of a trip to Mexico.

The annual Walk for Life to benefit the Charlottesville Pregnancy Center will be held at 9 am on Saturday, April 30. Culpeper is one of three walk locations. The one and one-half mile walk begins and ends at Culpeper Baptist Church. '•There is no money to collect. Walkers obtain pledges and the donors are billed directly. If the date and location are not convenient, the walk may be done at another time and place convenient to the walker, and mail Sponsor Pledge Form to CPC. All proceeds go to the Center as they offer all services free of charge and are currently serving approximately 100 women per month. • Walk Mission Statement: To raise funds to support women in a crisis pregnancy. The walk is not about any political statement nor is it a demonstration. The Center offers alternatives in a loving, caring, Christian way that is non-judgemental, and all of its services are confidential and offered free of charge. It is a heart-to-heart encounter. No signs allowed during the walk. Some services provided include: free pregnancy testing, confidential counseling, post-abortion counseling and support groups, 24-hour hotline at 804-979-8888, shepherding home and maternity home referrals, support groups, and Abstinence Program and School and Youth Groups. The need is great. CPC is a nonprofit organization and depends solely on support from the community. The walk is one of two major fund-raisers. Other services provided to women in crisis pregnancy situations include factual information about pregnancy and fetal development, practical alternatives including adoption planning, and material assistance such as formula, cribs and other furniture, clothes, housing, etc. Anyone having items to donate to the Center may drop them off at 2244 Ivy Road, Suite 1, Charlottesville. CPC does no promote or sponsor abortion blockades, marches, or pickets on abortion clinics. The Walk is not and “anti-abortion” demonstration. It is a celebration of life and a statement of support and compassion for women facing an unplanned pregnancy.

Foodbourne Illness And Prevention By HELEN W. SMITH Extension Agent, Home Economies Improper storage, inadequate cooking, and unsanitary conditions can cause food spoilage. Unfortunately, you cannot see, smell or taste the culprits - Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium perfringens, and Botulinum. Nonetheless, these bacteria can cause mild-to-severe intestinal flu-like symptoms. Careful attention to food handling can prevent potential illnesses. Common Bacteria There are four common bacteria that can cause food bourne illnesses if foods are not handled properly. These include: Salmonella - The susceptible foods are meat, poultry, fish, eggs and milk - what we call high protein foods. To prevent salmonellosis you need to thoroughly cook meat, poultry, and fish. Keep raw food separte from cooked food to prevent ! cross contamination. Do not drink raw or unpasteurized milk. btapnyiococcus aureus - commonly called “staph.” The susceptible foods are meat, poultry, cheese, egg products, starchy salads, meat and poultry salads, custards, and cream-filled desserts. Be sure to wash hands and utensils before preparation. Do not leave prepared food at room temperature over two hours. Clostridium perfringens - The susceptible foods are larged portions of foods that cool slowly, chafingdish foods not kept hot, poultry, gravies, stews, and meat casseroles. When reheating foods, heat to 160 degrees F and hold at 140 degrees F or above. Keep cold foods cold-below 40 degrees F. Keep refrigerated. If serving a buffet, serve perishable foods on ice. Or put out a small bowl of potato salad, for example, keeping the remaining salad in refrigerator. Replace the first bowl with a chilled HOME ECONOMICS one from refrigerator. Cool foods quickly. Divide a large quantity into shallow pans to cool quicker. Botulism - The suscpetible foods are home-canned foods and commerical canned foods. Use only reliable recipes. Don't use canned goods with cloudy liquids, loose lids, spurting liquid, or goods in cracked jars. Discard any swollen or dented caiis and lids. Personal Hygiene • Always wash hands before preparing food and after handling raw meat. If you have a cut or infection, wear gloves. Between preparation steps, wash, hands, countertops, acrylic cutting boards, and utensils using hot, soapy water-especially when working with raw meat and poultry. 1 • Clean wooden cutting boards with a mixture of 1 part bleach to 8 ‘ parts water, then rinse. Wash kitched linens often, and discard dirty and mildewed sponges. Time and Temperature Rule The temperature danger zone is between 40 degrees F (refrigerator) and 140 degrees F. Do not leave food in the temperature danger zone for more than two hours. Room temperature is approximately 70 degrees F; therefore, do not leave food at room temperature for more than two hours. The high temperatures used when boiling, baking, frying, and roasting kill most bacteria. Cook meat and poultry to the recommended temperature (pork 160 degrees, poultry 185 degrees), using a meat thermometer for accuracy. If not serving food immediately, keep it safe at a holding temperature of 140 to 165 degrees; do not leave hot food at room temperature for more than two hours. Refrigerate leftover immediately. Bacteria don’t multiply as fast below 40 degrees F. When shopping, select refrigerated and frozen items last, and quickly take them home. Read food labels for special storage requirements. Wrap and store meat items in the coldest part of the refrigerator one or two days; do not let meat juice drip onto other foods. Thaw frozen meat and poultry in the refrigerator overnight. For faster thawing, place the frozen package in a watertight plastic bag under cold water, changing the water often. Do not thaw meat and poultry under warm water or at room temperature. Other Tips i Do not store food near household cleaners or leaky pipes. Store frozen foods below 0 degrees F, perishable foods in the refrigerator, and canned foods in a dry place. Germs are more common in foods handled often during perparation, such as stuffing, potato salad, meat salads, and cream pies. Treat these foods with care. Marinate food in glass or plastic contianers in the refrigerator. (Marinades contain add, which reacts with some metals.) Before serving, boil all homecanned vegetable in a covered saucepan for 10 minutes, but boil spinach, com and meat for 20 minutes. If food has been sitting at room temperature too long or leftovers got pushed to the back of your refrigerator, you forgot them, and you think the food is on the borderline of being spoiled, throw it out! Remember the rule, “if in doubt, throw it out!” It’s better to be a little wasteful than take a chance of getting sick. Coyote Control Program There is a cooperative coyote control program between Virginia Department of Agriculture and Con sumer Services and the United States Department of Agriculture. The Animal Damage Control program of USDA will assist livestock producers in stopping coyote predation on sheep, goats, and cattle. The one wildlife biologist works with Check the Classifieds for the best deals in town! livestock producers by providing information on fencing, guard dogs, husbandry practices, and the removal of problem coyotes.

By ROGER CORDANI B«g»uh»ni»ork Newt Contributing Writer Amissville Ruritan Club is seeking community assistance to complete the 40 ft by 70 ft. Community Center building located at Stuart Field. While most of the exterior is complete, costing approximately $20,000 thus far, much remains to be done, at an additional cost of approximately $45,000. The club is hoping someone would be willing to loan them the funds at a low rate of interest. Once the building is complete, the club hopes to make money by renting out the facility and through money-making events. The club appreciates everyone’s participations in all their fundraising activities, since all of the money goes toward completion of the community center, after meeting community obligations. The club also deeply appreciates everyone’s contributions and the volunteer work on the building by club members, community residents, and RAA members. The club has endeavored to help the community since it was char tered in 1961.

There are five R’s to follow: Reduce-eg. less plastic is being used in bottles and when disposing of them, flatten them; Reuse-eg. sharing magazines; Reject-eg. don’t but if too much packaging material used; Respond-eg. call a company complaining or complimenting; and, of course, the fifth, Recycle. She urged those whose counties were not doing much in recycling to get involved. The Registrar, Mrs. Dale Metzinger, welcomed a new member and reported that the papers of three others were being processed for acceptance.

Bargain Membership Offered By HENRY ALTMAN B«Wh«i»noth New* Contributinf Writer Remember Sandler and Young, the velvet-voiced duo-one singer, Belgian, the other, American-who were a hit on network TV shows and in nightclubs between the late ‘60s and early ‘80s? One of them is still singing, and he will be a highlight of the next Community Concert Association season. Tony Sandler (bom Lucien Joseph Santele in Flanders, Belgium) will be at the Culpeper County High School auditorium at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 25 singing songs of Cole Porter and Irving Berlin. Sandler, whose former partner, Ralph Young, retired in 1983, will appear with guest singers and an ensemble headed by pianist-composer Greg Theisen. Community Concert Association members always get a great deal for their dues, but next season offers what may be their biggest bargain ever. Sandler’s performance will be the second of six in the Culpeper auditorium for the CCA’s 25th season. The CCA, which customarily offers four Culpeper concerts and this season is presenting five, will celebrate its silver anniversary with a “six for the silver” theme but will not increase dues. In addition to Sandler, the 199495 concerts include: Carl Peterson, singing Scottish / songs, at 3 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 25; Canada’s Lenny Solomon Trio, in a tribute to the jazz violin, at 8 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 31; the Aspen Wind Quintet, performing chamber music, at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 11; the New York Ballet, presenting “The Magic Rose,” at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, March 30; and the Russian State Chorus, 45 men and women, at 8 p.m. Wednesday, April 19. Members of the nonprofit CCA, run by volunteers from Culpeper, Fauquier, Madison, Orange, and Rappahannock counties, will also be entitled to attend eight concerts offered by other associations in Fairfax and Manassas. Dues are $25 per adult and one $9 payment covering all kindergartenthrough 12th-grade students in a household. That means a couple with four youngsters could see 14 performances for $59, or $9.83 per person. On a per-performance basis, assuming all family members went to all performances, that cost would be 70 cents. Compare that to Washington, D.C., theater prices! Some CCA members say that going to just one or two performances can be worth the full cost of dues for a season. Better, adults dues are only $22 if paid by May 1. Checks, accompanied by names, address, and made out to CCA, should be sent to HC 72 Box 231, Locust Grove, Va. 22508. Early birds who sign up at or before this season’s final Culpeper concert, by pianist-composer Peter Rater at 8 p.m. Saturday, April 9, may attend that concert free. For information cal Dot Mank at 987-8248. On a reciprocal basis, CCA members will be able to see four performances at Manassas’ Stonewall Jackson High School and four at Fairfax High School in the 1994-94 season. Manassas: Imperial Chinese Acrobats, 3 p.m. Ort. 2; Stephen and Carol Kechulius, baritone and piano, 3 p.m. Jan. 8; Max Morath, ragtime, 8 p.m. March 4; Dutton Family, country classics and pop songs, 8 p.m. April 28. Fairfax: Mischa Dichter, classical piano, 3 p.m. Oct. 9; Moscow Boys Choir, 40 voices, 3 p.m. Dec. 18; Russian Seasons, Moiseyev dance stars, 8 p.m. Feb. 12; Bai\jomanis, 8 p.m. March 4. Every years dozens of people join CCA in special membership categories that afford special privileges. Patrons (contributions of $75 to $124) and benefactors ($125 and up) are entitled to special seating in the Culpeper auditorium as well as two adults cards, students cards as requested, listing in programs, and tax deductibility for the amount contributed above applicable regular dues. __ / „ Spring Browning Indicates Winter Injury on Evergreens Browning of evergreen foliage at this time of year is a sign of winter ii\jury due to low temperatures, fluctuating temperatures, and drying out. Extreme temperature fluctuations probably cause more damage to plants in Virginia than low temperatures. Sunny Location More Hazardous Plants in sunny, protected locations tend to warm up more often in winter making them more susceptible to this type of injury than plants in shaded or exposed locations. Drying out, or desiccation, is another major cause of winter injury on evergreens. When soil is frozen, plants cannot take up moisture, but they continue to lose moisture. Ex posure to wind and sun increases the chance of this type of injury. Winter damage normally occurs on the south or southwest and windward sides of plants, but in severe cases the whole plant may be affected. Yew, arborvitae, and hemlock are the most susceptible of the evergreens commonly used in landscapes, but winter browning can affect all evergreens. Shallow-rooted Plants Get Lose from Soil Small, shallow-rooted plants are often injured when alternate freezing and thawing of the soil heaves the plants from firm contact with the soil and exposes the roots to drying winds. New tranplants are particularly sensitive.

The brown foliage is dead and will not green up, but the buds, which are more protected than the foliage, will often grow out and cover up the brown. If all the leaves fall off and no life is evident in the stems, prune back to live wood. Fertilize the shrubs after pruning and water well throughout the growing season. Provide Protection Around Tree To minimize browning next winter, prop pine boughs of Christmas tree green^ against or over evergreens to protect them from wind and sun, and to catch snow for natural cover. Or construct a barrier of burlap or similar material on the south, west, and windward sides of the evergreens. If a plant has been showing injury on all sides, surround it with a barrier but leave the top open to allow for aeration and light penetration. Keeping evergreens well watered throughout the growing season and into the fall is another way to reduce winter bum. Watering during mild spells in winter when the soil is dry and not frozen also helps reduce iiyury.
