Mrs. Purnell is not a member of Trinity Church, a resident of the town or a property owner in town. ' ’ Coifnty Administrator John McCarthy, who acts as the town zoning administrator, said the Historic District Ordinance does not specify that an “agrieved party” has to be any of those things. The ordinance reads, “Any applicant or other person or governmental body or agency agrieved by a final decision taken by the ARB on his or her application may make an appeal of the decision to the town council.” . it Mr. McCarthy said that when the “There was no direction from the ordinance to tell me that she can’t be an agrieved party.” —John McCarthy Historic District Ordinance was being reviewed the council and ARB wanted to leave the possibility open for a non-resident property owner to appeal and therefore the language was left broad. “There was no direction from the ordinance to tell me that she can’t be an agrieved party,” Mr. McCarthy said. At its April meeting the ARB voted 3 to 1 with one abstention not to consider the application. At that time they said an agrieved party did not necessarily have to be the applicant. The bulk of the discussion at the ARB meeting concerned the issue of whether or not a fountain should be considered ja “structure” under the terms of the Historic District Ordinance. ' The appeal was filed too late to be advertised and heard at the May meeting of the Town Council. It is rcheduled to be advertised for a hearing at the June meeting. In the meantime Trinity Church is barred from installing the fountain. Schools Consider Revised Grade System for Next Year Block Schedule for High School Possible for 1995-96 School Year By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Nm Staff Writer At Tuesday night’s School Board meeting School Superintendent David Gangel reported on the work of 1 one of the quality teams that is considering the grading system used in fourth through twelfth grades. Dr. Gangel said the committee had surveyed parents, teachers and students. It also gathered information on grading systems used in 13 other public school systems in the area, in five private schools, and in fourChristian schools. The committee discovered that the Rappahannock grading system, which requires a numerical grade of 95-100 for an “A,” 88-94 for a “B,” 81-87 for a “C,” and 70-79 for a D is higher than all but one Christian school for an “A” or “B” and higher than any other for a “C.” Dr. Gangel said this means that a student who gets a grade of 94 would get an “A” in most school systems but a “B” in Rappahannock public schools. He said the committee is leaning toward recommending a grading system where 93-100 would get an “A,” 85-92 a “B,” 77-84 a “C” and 7076 a “D.” A grade of 69 and below would remain an “F.” Dr. Gangel said he was not yet formally recommending the change yet, but wanted to get it into “public discussion.” Dr. Gangel said it is not possible to tell how much difference this change would make, but the committee is concerned that Rappahannock students are at a disadvantage compared to others when their grade- . point averages are compared by college admission officers. Chairman Beverly Massie said she agreed with the change.' “We want our students to be as competitive as possible,” she said. High school Principal John Toth said his faculty was studying block scheduling. Orange County High School has block scheduling now, and Madison County High School is planning to introduce it next year, he said. He said that various forms of block scheduling are being considered. All call for fewer classes per day but allow students to get in more classes per year. Most require a longer school day. A common schedule would allow a student to complete four classes in the first semester and four more in f the sceond semester. This would allow students to take more electives and would reduce the number of interruptions during the day, he said. He said some faculty members had visited Orange County and will visit Clarke County next week. 1 He said the school faculty would have a recommendation before the start of the budget process next year. ,, Prom Promise • Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Sharon Kilpatrick Melissa Dodson mans the SADD table while Adam Hasse signs his promise not to drink Saturday night.

Mrs. McNear has recently taken over the duties of being the Youth for Understanding (YFU) volunteer area representative for Rappahannock County. The former YFU representatives, Dick and Pat Helmer of Castleton, have moved to Florida. “I did not want to see the program fall apart. No one else volunteered to pick it up,” said Mrs. McNear. The Helmers had represented YFU for several counties, but Mrs. McNear is in charge of Rappahannock County only. “I know the people in Rappahannock County and what it is like to live here. I think that the foreign students have been received particularly well at RCHS because it is a smaller school,” said Mrs. McNear. Only one family, the Klatkos, has signed up so far to host a foreign student for the next school year. Usually five or six foreign exchange students come to Rappahannock County annually, so more families are desperately needed. Mrs. McNear said, “It has been such a nourishing experience for everyone. “The foreign students have been received particularly well at RCHS because it is a smaller school.” —Jeanie McNear. All the kids we have had have become as much a part of our family as our own kids. We have visited most of them and I hear from all of them often. The whole Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Jean McNear and Caddy hope to welcome foreign teens to county. basis of the program is the family experience. Jt makes my day when I go to the mailbox and get a letter from one of them.” The students arrive in the U.S. with their own health insurance and spending money. The host family is expected to treat the student just like their own children, providing them with meals, and lots of love and understanding. “The most important thing in their life is having a loving family. If you treat them as a member of your own family, they will be happy and adjust; they become comfortable with you and feel loved. They come to you for advice like your own kids do,” said Mrs. McNear. She says that it is not necessary for a host family to feel they have to take the student on extravagant trips. One of her previous student’s favorite things to do here was to jump in the Thornton River wearing cutoffs. Or they might want to go to the mall. “They love to get a taste of the American life. They want to participate and be included the way your own kids are,” she said. Mrs. McNear says a host family does not have to have children of their “It makes my day when I go to the mailbox and get a letter from one of them.” own. If a family does have children, it is not important that they be close in age to the foreign student, either. Her daughter Laura was six years old when the McNears hosted their first student, and everyone got along splendidly. Among her many responsibilities as the area representative, Mrs. McNear will recruit, screen and select host families for placement of foreign students. Once the students come, she will monitor, support and advise the students, host families and school personnel throughout the year. “One of the greatest things I like is “The most important thing in their life is having a loving family.” the motivation to have more fun. I think you get more out of it than you put into it. It is so rewarding to see relationships develop. There are so many kids who want to come to America.” School Board Settles Suit By CINDY MAHAN faMMtannock Newt SUIT Writer In Rappahannock County Circuit Court last week, the Rappahannock County Public Schools reached a compromise settlement with Erika Virginia Sinnott, a former student, and her parents, and paid $15,000 to settle the case. According to court records, of the $15,000, $7,021.76 will be paid out for medical and hospital expenses, $2,978.24 for professional services rendered by Ann M. Hayes, Esq., and $5,000 will be paid to Hugo H. and Catherine J. Sinnott, her parents. The case was brought about when Miss Sinnott claimed injury due to a school bus accident which occurred on November 9, 1990. Miss Sinnott is now 15 years old and attends Randolph Macon Academy in Front Royal.

Assault Charges Dismissed on Appeal By CINDY MAHAN K—Mhmnoch New* SUIT Writer At a misdemeanor appeal trial in Rappahannock County Circuit Court on Monday, assault and battery charges against Edward A. Wince, 44, of Flint Hill, were dismissed. The case was sent to Circuit Court for appeal, after Mr. Wince had been found guilty in District Court earlier this year. Mr. Wince had been accused of assault and battery by William H. James, Jr., of Flint Hill, a neighbor of Mr. Wince’s, on October 9,1993. Mr. James claimed that on that date he was standing by a brush pile • in his yard when Mr. Wince and his father, Robert Wince, came up the driveway in their pickup truck. The Jameses and Winces share a 20 foot right of way* and each enter their property through their own cattle gate. Mr. James testified that the night before, the Winces had called the Sheriffs Department to complain about a brush fire that Mr. James had in his yard, and that he could hear them cursing about him to the deputy who responded to the call. Mr. James said that he walked up to the cattle gate to speak to the elder Mr. Wince about the prior night s incident. Mr. wince nas a hearing problem and said he could not hear him. He said that Edward Wince got out of the truck, and “came toward me screaming in a rage. He called me an SOB and he backhanded me across the face.” Mr James’s girlfriend, Michelle Winters, testified that she heard Edward Wince say, “I’ll kill you, you SOB.” She also said that she saw Edward Wince backhand Mr. James over the top of the fence. Edward Wince testified that he did not strike Mr. James, that he was putting up his hand to defend himself from being hit by Mr. James. He also said that he was sticking up for his father who was being verbally abused by Mr. James. He said that when he drove up to the gate, he saw Mr. James run from his truck to the brush pile in his yard, then come over to the gate, “waving his fists and cursing and using all kinds of vulgar language.” Edward Wince said that Mr. James said, “If you don’t quit meddling in my business, you are going to bite off more than you can chew.” At this point, said Edward Wince, Mr. James lunged into the gate and tried to punch him. Mr. Wince said, “His face made con tact witn tne paun ot my nana. According to Edward Wince, Mr. James then said, “Now you have done it. You are going to jail.” Edward Wince said, “You are going with me.” Mr. James responded, “That is nothing new. I have spent many a night in jail.” The father, Robert Wince, testified that Mr. James “was hollerin’ and whoopin’. He cursed me, so my son heard him and got out of the truck.” Mr. Wince testified that his son had not struck Mr. James. Mr. Hugo Perez, a lawyer and former resident of Rappahannock County, testified to Edward Wince’s reputation in the community being one of truth and veracity, and peace and quiet. He had employed Mr. Wince when he lived in the county. Judge W. Shore Robertson said, “There is a question as to whether it was a defensive move. The evidence is highly conflicting. I do not believe the Commonwealth has proved assault beyond a reasonable doubt. There are two many conflicts and uncertainties. I cannot reconcile all of these statements as is necessary to convict.” 1 I! Loretta Kae uoraon laxa Turner), 36, of Fauquier County, was sentenced to 12 months in the county jail, but all but 60 days was suspended. She will also be under supervised probation for two years and must undergo alcohol and drug testing as required by her probation officer. Ms. Gordon had previously pleaded guilty to forging and uttering a check in the amount of $60 at Mayhugh’s Store in Amissville. Judge Robertson told her, “It is painful and difficult to have you here in this court. I have known your parents for twenty years. There is a future after this. I don’t want you back in here any more.” Timothy Duane Reid, 31, of Front Royal, received a five year sentence for the possession of PCP and cocaine. He had pleaded guilty to the offenses in January. He will be evaluated for CDI (community diversion incentive), but will remain incarcerated until his next court date of June 16. 1 A Rappahannock grand jury brought “true bills” on two indictments for grand larceny against Cana Deware also on Monday.

Local Squadsman Wins Volunteer Award By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer In October 1989 Chris Payne watched and waited helplessly when his younger brother brother Matthew lay in pain after suffering an accident on his four-wheeler. He had called the rescue squad, but it seemed to take forever for an ambulance to arrive, and he didn’t know what to do to help. When the ambulance finally arrived it was from the Washington Volunteer Fire Department although the Paynes live about one quarter of a mile from the Sperry-1 ville Rescue Squad building. There weren’t enough trained members of the Sperryville Squad available to make the call, he said. By spring of 1990 Chris Payne f was running rescue calls with the Sperryville Volunteer Rescue Squad as a junior member. Now Matthew at 15 is a junior member, and 19year-old Chris Payne is a regular member. He is a sergeant in the squad. Their mother Geraldine Payne, a kindergarten teacher, is also a member of the organization. Last week Mr. Payne was recognized as one of two winners of the J.C. Penney Golden Rule Youth Volunteer Awards for Northern Virginia for his work with the rescue _ / squad. He won a plaque, a Waterford Crystal sculpture of a flame and $1,000 for the rescue squad. Donald Gore, president of the Sperryville Volunteer Rescue Squad, saw a notice about the J.C. Penny awards in the Rappahannock New8 and decided to nominate Chris Payne. “He’s a fine upstanding young gentleman and very active in the rescue squad,” Mr. Gore said. “You can depend on him. He will do things when he is not asked because he sees the need.” Mr. Payne said he was surprised to win the recognition. He didn’t even know he had been nominated until after the nomination period was finished. He went to Arlie conference center last Tuesday knowing he was a finalist, but not knowing he was a winner. As a winner in Northern Virginia he is automatically entered in the national J.C. Penney Golden Rule Awards with a chance to win a $5,000 scholarship and another $5,000 for the rescue squad. What began as an opportunity to be of service has become a career goal for Mr. Payne. While he was still in high school he took training as an emergency medical technician so he could help in the rescue squad.

Shedding Light On THE BLMiriG CLOCK PHEnonEnon When you come home and your electronic clock is blinking, it can be a great inconvenience. You may not realize, however, that your clock is probably reacting to a phenomenon known as the "momentary outage"—which actually helps prevent greater inconvenience. Although momentary outages have always been a part of your power system's service, you may be more aware of them today because of modern appliances' sensitivity to even the slightest variation in power supply. Just a second's interruption is enough to make them blink. Momentary outages can be annoying, but they serve a valuable purpose. They help temporarily break the circuit when a problem occurs, such as when tree branches brush against electric lines. The momentary interruption allows the problem to clear, and the overall power supply is not subjected to major damage. This helps prevent longer outages. For many years, these beneficial momentary outages went completely unnoticed by most customers. But today's high tech appliances just don't miss a beat. They frequently react to a dip in the power that lasts only one second or so. To help eliminate this inconvenience, many home electronics now available offer built-in batteries. If a short interruption occurs, the battery takes over and keeps your device in operation. You may wish to ask for this feature when you shop for new home electronics. In the meantime, Potomac Edison will be working to detect problems in our system as quickly as possible and keep momentary interruptions to a minimum.

Superintendent David Gangel, representing a committee set up to improve the college preparatory curriculum at the high school, proposed that the letter grades assigned to \ numerical grades at the high school be changed to permit higher letter grades With lower numerical grades. 1 At first glance that appears to be heading in the Wrong direction, less rigor in class work. In fact, it won’t really make much difference. It probably makes sense to bring Rappahannock’s assignment of letter grades to numbers in line with prevailing practice in surrounding public schools, however, many teachers have dealt with the narrow band of passing grades in the county grading system by allowing extra credit. Rather than limiting “A”s to those who get from 95 to 100, they have been expanded to apply to grades from 95 to 110, or some such. We suspect that a committee set up to improve * preparation of students for college has more significant work * to do. The second proposal was to explore the possibility of * going to “block scheduling” at the high school. As Principal John Toth explained to the School Board what this means is , extended class periods. Instead of 45 to 48 minute classes, students would be in class for 85 to 90 minutes. Under those conditions students would take fewer classes at any one time, but they could theoretically complete . more classes in a year. Taking four classes each semester, for ; example, instead of six of seven a year. There is no conceivable way to do this that will not extend the school day. If the school day is to be lengthened for high school students, the school system will obviously have to consider how that will affect elementary school students. Young children definitely will need a change of pace if their school day is to be extended. < The alternative would be separate bus schedules for elementary and high school students. Many of the school systems that are going to block scheduling in high school already have dual bus schedules. There are good reasons for trying to accommodate longer class periods. Laboratory activities are particularly cramped by the usual class period. However, the school system is wise to postpone a decision on this until all the ramifications have been explored. WHY UFO'S NEVER LAND IN THE CIVILIZED WORLD Rappahannock Heritage 1 J | Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahaa Surrounded by new life, the chimneys remind us of life gone from the house that once stood here in Old Hollow. ; Letters to the Editor Wilder Should Not Run To the Editor ( Virginia’s former governor, Douglas Wilder, is considering a run for the United State’s Senate this November as an Independent. If he does so, he will be running against a Republican nominee to be chosen in a convention on June 4 and a nominee Chosen by the Democratic voters in a primary election on June 14. A Democrat can hardly win in Virginia without the support of the African-American voters. Justly proud of Wilder’s record in office and of the fact that he was the first African-American ever elected governor in the United States. Many black Virginians would probably vote for him againist the Democratic nominee. Since it will be almost impossible for Wilder himself to win against the official Republican and Democratic nominees, this could result in the election of Oliver North, who is leading in the Republican polls. Wilder was elected on the Democratic ticket five times to the State Senate and as lieutenant governor and governor. Many voted for him for his record and his qualifications, but others undoubtedly voted for him simply because he was the Democratic nominee. It would be a sad ending to his political career for Wilder to run against the nominee chosen by thousands of Democrats who had voted for him for governor in 1985 and throw the election to the likes of Oliver North. JANINE MOHL Reston Election Tactics Decried To the Editor: I am dismayed by the overt mud slinging and prevarication that hopefully came to a conclusion with the May 3rd elections in the Town of Washington. As a past resident and voter in Washington, I was always painfully aware that my thoughts, feelings, and concerns were not considered as important as those of the residents whose grandfathers (or their spouses’ grandfathers) were bom in Rappahannock. The recent election process is evidence that they continue to believe that they are “better” than others simply because they have chosen to live in the community where they were bom. For those of you who were elected by allowing your friends to csyole and badger the voters while peddling very personal and false information about your opponents—I wish to congratulate you on your “victory.” AlS a lifelong Virginian with fairly high ethical standards, I have never believed that winning through deceit could truly be considered “winning.” Perhaps, you, the victors, view this process differently; it certainly appears that some of the candidates believe the old ax iom that “the end justifies the means.” Politics in Little Washington has always been difficult. This past two months we saw politics at its worst! The losses to the residents of Washington are probably not going to be felt for a period of time because the changes will be subtle. However, the erosion of the positive social growth in the Town will be very real and sad. As someone who has always cared deeply for the Town of Washington, I sincerely want those who “won” by not being truthful with the voters to somehow, suddenly become honest and truly honorable at the July, 1994, Town meeting. I am aware that this is not the usual change process of human nature, so I have little hope that this will occur. Nothing in this election process has reflected positively on the Town of Washington specifically, or Rappahannock County in general. The “new” Town Council has a great deal of work to do, rebuilding the ethical reputation they have so efficiently torn down during the campaign. This is a waste of energy and time that would not have been necessary had the campaign been conducted honestly, fairly, and without malice. ELLEN MANSON Washington Supporters Thanked To the Editor: Tremendous community spirit was evident last week, in the efforts that were expended, to make the “County Suppers” a rousing success. Tireless efforts made by Rose Ann Sharp, Marion Sharp, Susan McCarthy, Rosa Crocker and committee chairperson, Kay Miller resulted in a much needed fund raiser netting $3,200 for the Child Care and Learning Center. It was most heartening to see that our community can support his worthwhile cause with such enthusiasm. In gratitude to all hostesses and participants, we hope that we may count on all of you to make this an even greater success in 1995. LOUISE VAN DORT Board Chairman Disney Development Healthy To the Editor: Concerning the debate in Northern Virginia about Disney’s proposed theme park in Prince William County, let’s step back and look at the big picture. First, the facts: Urban sprawl has been a part of civilization for thousands of years since when the first cities emerged. Urban sprawl has been a very real condition in the D.C. region for many decades. Rapid growth in Prince William and surrounding counties has been going on long before Disney announced their plans. The entire northern region of Virginia, and possibly stretching to Richmond will be The economic “Mecca” for the next 20-30 years (with or without Disney). There may be more quality orien-' tated developers in this country than The Walt Disney Company, but I cannot think of any. One of the many advantages to having the theme park arrive at this time is that given the observation of the growth that is already occurring, hopefully renewed citizen/govemment planning will focus on the total compliment of needs and recommitement to quality growth. While I do not personally know any of the representatives of the Disney organization, I do know a few professionals who have worked for them at their other facilities. They tell me of the professionalism of the company, and their expertize in planning and transportation is second to none. Of course there are issues that need to be addressed. However, working together, friends and critics, all of the challenges could be satisfied. Will the results be perfect? No! Can balance be reached between needs and wants? Yes! As an example, 1-66, east of Dulles airport is long overdue for widening (with or without Disney). There is too much vacacy in the office buildings in the area of Dulles and elsewhere in the area. As confidence in the local real estate market matures those vacancies will disappear. The result will be reassessments of their tax bases. In turn, such counties as Fairfax could come closer to balancing the tax burden between resident^ and commerical sources. The draw to the new theme park will spin-off tourists to the many other excellent attractions in Virginia as well as D.C., Maryland, West Virginia and Pennsylvania. There are many tourists that, once they arrive in any given vacation spot for, say three to five days, will visit other attractions within two to three hours of their primary location. Within two hours of the proposed theme park are such points of interest as Gettysburg, Harpers Ferry, Annapolis, Baltimore, Richmond, Mt. Vernon, the many features of Washington, Monticello and Kings Dominion to name just a few. Jobs have been a major point of discussion. As it should be! However, the projected job creation estimates I have read are vastly Under estimated. Already there are contactors travelling to this area from West Virginia, Pennsylvania, D.C., Maryland, and far southern Virginia to work on the sites already under development. This will increase, and as the Northern Virginia counties develop there are and will be more “sub-hubs” of communities developing southward. So, we are talking about short-term and permanent employment opportunities that if uninterrupted, could continue for many years. As one that has bedn seeking a relocation for my family to Northern Virginia for over two years, all of the above topics are of interest to me, with or without Disney. R. DAN RITCHIE 1 Riverdale, Md. North i * • * Supported 1 To the Editor: It is about time we cut through the smoke screen and get to the heart of the issues. Lt. Col. Oliver North has answered the questions which have been hurled at him time after time like javelins. We have listened to the same old broken record long enough! It is time we give equal time to the candidate and listen honestly to what he has to say. I am quite certain that when the people hear how Ollie wants to fight for what is right—such as: family values; education as opposed to indoctrination in the schools; spending cuts; balanced budget; welfare reform; pro-life—YES, pro-life (if ife do not respect life as it is forming in the mother’s womb, how do we expect to respect that same life dftfcr the child is born?); term limits; lifteitem veto for the President (no matter which party) to rid this nation.of the political pork that we cannot afford to carry as a millstone around our necks; waging a real war (jn crime; and last but not least on this short list is Ollie’s intent to protact our second amendment right. ; If people are given an opportunity to come to know Oliver North for who he is—NOT what the liberals paint him to be, they will find that Ollie stands for the same values they do. Let me tell you here and now that this is why they are so afraid of Oliver North! Are the memories of my fellow Virginians so short that they have forgotten what the atrocious Lies did to Mike Farris just last year? Have so many forgotten how 43 percent of this nation’s voters were duped 5n the 1992-Presidential election? It is time we wake up to the alarm that has been screaming loud and clear since 1992. If the people choose ribt to heed the warning, we all suffer! f It is time we started thinking for ourselves and reject the brain-washing from the Washington insiders. Jf you are truly disgusted with the pompous arrogance of the majority of the members of Congress—do something about it and vote for the poeple who truly care about our country—people like Oliver North, I am asking you to remember what a sacrifice Ollie and his family are making in his run for U.S. Senate. They knew the liberal media would dredge up the issues whijph had been settled so many years ago. Yet, they care more for this counSy and putting her on the right track than they do for their personal sacrifice! That, my friends, is what makes TRUE patriots! I want* a Statesman to represent me—not' a politician who is out for his own gain while representing himself rather than his Constituents. MRS. LOIS L. JOHNSON Centreville

[Baseball Team Wins Two More ;Softball and Soccer Squads Split Games ] By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer ' The baseball team won two more games last week while the softball and soccer teams were winning one each and losing one each. ; Against Manassas Park in an away game last Tuesday the baseball team had its most impressive ;win of the season getting an 11 to 1 ^victory. Coach Bob Howard said J.C. Welch pitched the entire game getting 12 strike outs while giving up . three hits and two walks. “Offensively we did a great job,” •he said. “We had season highs in irons, hits, and stolen bases.” The ; team had 12 hits and 13 stolen bases. • Willie Eastham scored three runs, '.had two hits, stole three bases and - scored two RBIs, he said. • In the Friday game at home ; against Clarke County the team struggled and was down 0 to 5 going • into the bottom of the seventh in; ning. With two outs the team managed to score six runs and get the win 6 to 5. Luke Zindel pitched the entire game and gave up only one earned run while striking out five batters. “The key play came with Rappahannock down 5 to 2 and the bases loaded,” Coach Howard said. Luke Zindel came up to bat in the bottom of the seventh with two outs. His line drive to the short stop was hobbled, but the throw to first was t on time. However, the first baseman dropped the ball. The first baseman then threw the ball past the catcher as runners came on around the bases, so Rappahannock “got three runs on a ground ball to the shortshop,” Coach Howard said. Later, with two Rappahannock runners on bases and the score tied, Paul Brown hit a double that scored Luke Zindel from second and ended the game. Coach Howard said the main difference in the way the team is playing now and the beginning of the season is that they “are able to regroup after an error...Before the whole team would get down. They’ve learned every play is a different play.” Friday, long before the baseball team managed its seventh inning rally, the girls’ softball team had defeated Clarke County 15 to 0 in a game shortened to five innings under the “slaughter” rule. Pitcher Leah Marlett allowed only two hits while striking out five batters. Coach Renee Leake said, “Laura McNear, Bonnie Jewell, Janet Hitt, Cari Kerr and Shamita Fletcher all had exciting plays on defense.” Marsha Freeman and Cari Kerr each had two hits, and Bonnie Jewell went three for four in hits. However, the team lost the game last Tuesday against Manassas Park. The baseball and softball teams i - Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Jessica Jacobs won third in the shop put Monday. will host their last regular season home games Friday against Stonewall Jackson. The soccer team had a 5 to 0 romp over Madison last Tuesday. Adam Kerr scored the only goal in the first half. During the second half Jonathan Maeyer, Adam Kerr, Willie Shanks and Eddie Sauce each scored a goal. On Saturday afternoon in the rain in a home game against Randolph Macon Academy the team suffered a 1 to 3 loss. Johnathan Maeyer scored the lone Panther goal. In an invitational track and field meet with Luray, RMA, and Page County at Page County High School Monday night Holley Gangel won the 1600 and 3200-meter runs and came in third in the high jump. Also for the girls Sarah Gentry had a second in the shot put, while Jessica Jacobs had a third and Dawn Havstad came in fifth. In the discus Dawn was first and Sarah fifth. Amber Early came in third in the 300 meter hurdles and fifth in the 100 meter hurdles, and Nancie Gallegos was fifth in the 800 meter run. For the boys the relay team of Mike Grimsley, Jason Grimsley, Mark Jenkins and Jason waters came in first in the 4 by 400 relay. Mike also won the 3200-meter run and Jason Waters was second. Jason got another second in the high jump, while Jason1 Settle came in third. Mark Jenkins came in first in the 1600-meter run. Willie Shanks came in fourth in the 100-meter sprint and fourth in the triple jump. Tucker Rogers was third in the 800-meter run. Jason Carter was fourth in the 200-meter sprint. Last Thursday the team faced Clarke County and Brentsville at Brentsville. Jason Waters was first in the 3200-meter run and second in the high jump. Mark Jenkins was second in the 1600-meter run, and Mike Grimsley got a second in the 3200.

Rappahannock News, Washington, Va Wednesday, May 11,1994 A6 CQ UO CULPEPER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL May 1994 / / 7 Pinebrooke-UVa is Psychiatric Partnership As Congress debates how to create alliances to improve and streamline healthcare, Culpeper Memorial Hospital and the University of Virginia Health Sciences Center have already created new lines of communication ai)d a joint effort. Using the academic and research resources of the University and the efficiency and compassion of CMH, the two hospitals are cooperating to provide psychiatric services at Pinebrookc-UVa Psychiatric Center. This is a hometown example of how healthcare facilities can work together to provide optimal care for their patients. UVa provides the medical director, Dr. Roy Stcfanik, board certified psychiatrist, plus occasional inservices for hospital staff. “We have the benefit of clinical research and many minds at the University,” commented Nancy Batiste, RN, CNS, clinical Dr. Roy Stefanik, Psychiatrist Pinebrooke - UVa Medical Director. i coordinator for PincbrookeUVa. “Wc have access to infor CMH Is Important To Our Community Ofien times we concentrate on the clinical services that CMH provides, and overlook other ways CMH contributes to the quality of life in Culpeper. Just this past year several new projects were established as community services. The Diabetes Education Program is designed to give new diabetics and their families a good start. The Prime Time Club is a network of activities and services for citizens over fifty years old. The Explorers group introduces young people to health careers. The child care program in Madison is also growing well. Other services we offer arc prenatal classes, monthly health forums, health screens, hospital tours for school children and community groups, meeting rooms for non-partisan groups, Lifcsteps weight management program, babysitter class, and Santa breakfast. For many years CMH has sponsored a Little League baseball team. Hospital staff participate in many community functions such as school career days, health fairs, CulpeperFcst. The community relations department offers a physician referral service to help residents find appropriate physician and a speakers bureau to provide speakers to community organizations. For Your Good Health is the hospital's quarterly newsletter and contains articles on health topics. CMH provided over SI.6 million in unreimbursed care to patients during the last fiscal year. CMH also provided $24,411 in charity care to patients sent to the hospital from the Free Clinic for services. Medical Care for All, the CMH Foundation's Annual Fund, provided over $ 15,500 this year to cover the medical expenses of patients who have no health coverage, do not qualify for government programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, or HillBurton, and cannot afford to pay. In addition, employees of Culpeper Memorial Hospital are active in their communities - in the Free Clinic, United Way, March of Dimes, Cancer Society, in churches, in community groups. The presence of high quality health care in Culpeper makes our area a better place to live and more attractive to industry. s All in all, Culpeper Memorial Hospital has a significant presence in our community and provides much more than acute hospital care. CMH Is A Bargain A study of hospital charges shows Culpeper Memorial Hospital among the best in Virginia. Data Advantage Corporation of Louisville, Kentucky, recently published the Hospital Pricing Report 1994 Edition which ranks Virginia's ninety acute care hospitals' average billed charges for the fifty most common Medicare admission diagnoses (DRGs). “This report documents our right to lay claim to the title of the least costly hospital in Virginia,” slated William A. Gravely, president of CMH. “Our charges are consistently low relative to other hospitals because we have an astute medical staff that works closely with the hospital staff in managing patient care at our hospital.” The Hospital Pricing Report is based on all actual bills submitted by hospitals to Medicare for payment. Data Advantage states that although the report is based on bills for Medicare beneficiaries who used inpatient services, the data is representative of what hospitals bill other patients. The charges are listed for the fifty most common diagnostic related groups (DRGs) which are Medicare's designations for patients’ admission diagnoses and the way the Prospective Payment System pays for hospital admissions in the United States. Culpeper Memorial Hospital is a fine example of the overall message that emerges from the Hospital Pricing Report. Based on this report, health care at rural Virginia Hospitals is a phenomenal bargain. CMH is the hospital most often listed with the lowest amount billed for an individual DRG. Ninety-five percent of the hospitals reporting the lowest amounts are rural hospitals, while 70% of hospitals that billed the highest amounts are urban hospitals. “This is big news because many people think all hospital costs are the same, and they aren't,” said Gravely, who is also chairman of the Virginia Hospital Association's Task Force on Rural Hospitals and Health Care. “Primary care is the specialty of rural hospitals, and rural hospitals deliver primary care at considerably lowercosts than in the urban setting.” With business and government searching far and wide for ways to reduce health care costs, rural hospitals jump off the page as the best choice for primary care. “As healthcare reform proceeds, those in charge must steer patients to the appropriate facilities if economic reality is to be a part of how the reformed system purchases health care. We can no longer pay for primary and secondary care in extremely expensive tertiary care facilities,” explained Gravely. The other half of the story is that Culpeper physicians' charges are also low compared with their peers. This fact was documented by data from Medirisk, an independent organization consulted by the Culpeper Physician Hospital Organization (PHO). The review shows that 92% of Culpeper physicians' undiscounted fees are equal to or below the discounted fee of Northern Virginia physicians and that 80% are equal to or below the discounted fees of Richmond physicians. Even compared to managed indemnity plans, Culpeper physicians' regular fee schedules look very look. “With physicians’ charges comparing well along with hospital charges, health care in our community is a very good deal,” said Jim Rutkowski, vice president of finance and chairman of the. newly-formed Culpeper PHO. * mation on any disorder and to new developments in psychiatry.” Culpeper Memorial Hospital provides nursing staff and houses the center. “Our nurses care about our patients, and our program is flexible to meet their individual needs,” said Batiste. “The length of stay and daily costs are low at PinebrookcUVa,” adds Dr. Stefanik. “This efficiency and the quality of care make Pinebrooke-UVa an excellent choice for inpatient care.” The program at PinebrookeUVa is designed for those who can benefit from short-term intensive treatment. “We treat pa tients who have depression, anxiety, chronic pain, eating disorders, suicidal impulses, schizophrenia, and dual diagnoses,” said Dr. Stefanik. “It is noteworthy that Pinebrooke-UVA has many clinical resources not typically found in psychiatric hospitals, so we can treat patients who have serious medical conditions along with emotional disorders,” continued Stefanik. / “This innovative arrangement brings together the expertise of both hospitals to provide high quality psychiatric care to our area,” said Batiste. Midwives Care For Women i Women’s health care by a nurse midwife is an ancient concept that has moved with the times. The word midwife means literally with woman, and this describes the unique care pro-' vided by these health care providers. Today's certified nurse midwife (CNM) is a registered nurse who has completed advanced studies in women’s health care and midwifery and passed a certification examination. A CNM is a skilled health care professional who provides primary health care to women. This care includes evaluation, assessment, treatment, and referral to a specialist if required'. Nurse midwives arc specialists in normal pregnancy and birth care. They believe that pregnancy and childbirth are enhanced through education, health care, and supportive intervention. Nurse midwives are trained and experienced in prenatal, postpartum, normal newborn care, and well-woman gynecology care. They consult with physicians when there are problems that may put a woman at risk. Nurse midwives are highly regarded for their fine-tuned communication skills and willingness to take time to listen to and to talk with their clients. Health care by a nurse midwife means understanding the unique physical, social, and spiritual needs of women. CNMs promote consumer choice and cncouragd women to make informed decisions about their health care and important 1 events in their lives. Midwife Joins Medical Practice Certified nurse-midwife Kathleen McClelland will join Dr. Matt Werner's private practice of obstetrics and gynecology in mid May. She will also work at the maternity clinic at the Culpeper County Health Department. A registered nurse who has completed a post-graduate program in midwifery and passed a national certification program, a certified nurse-midwife (CNM) is a primary care provider for normal maternity, newborn, and well-woman gynecological care. McClelland has a wide range of experience as a nurse, a family nurse practitioner, and a nurse midwife. After completing her bachelor's in nursing from Kent Stale University, McClelland worked for two years as staff nurse at University of Virginia Hospital. As part of the family nurse practitioner (FNP) program at UVa, McClelland did a four-month intership with the Indian Health Service in White Earth, Minnesota. After completing the FNP program, she worked on the White Earth Indian reservation for three years and focused on pregnancy, newborn and well-woman care. McClelland returned to Washington, DC, in 1983 and worked as a staff nurse in the labor and delivery unit at George Washington University and then as a FNP in the Student Health Service at Gallaudct University. For seven years, McClelland's primary care for deaf adolescents and young adults emphasized responsible sexual practices and general well-woman health care. McClelland found that she missed being with women as their primary care provider for pregnancy, labor and birth. In 1991 she received her master's in nursing from Georgetown University and passed the certification exam of the American College of Nurse Midwives. Since then, she has been working as a CNM for a large health maintenance organization in Northern Virginia and Wash Kathleen McClelland, certified nurse midwife, will join Dr. Matt; Werner's practice in May. ington, D.C. “Nurse midwife care is an option for women who want to spend more time with their health care provider during annual GYN and prenatal visits and who want to involve their families during pregnancy and childbirth,” explains McClelland. “Nurse midwives educate women about their options during labor and birth in order to empower them to decide how they want their birth to be. Some women who choose a midwife prefer to have natural childbirth; however, conventional pain control is also available. A midwife has numerous ways to suggest to women to help them cope with labor pain.” McClelland and her husband Dan Nellis live in Midland, Virginia. Nellis is assistant director for Hemlock Overlook Center for Outdoor Education in Clifton. McClelland and Nellis enjoy backpacking, canoeing, bicycling, and woodworking. Social Workers Help Patients Plan Recovery t uiscnarge planning is a tunction whose name is not well known outside the hospital, but it is as fundamental to health care as nursing assessment. Discharge planning is a crucial process of hospital admission today because insurance regulations allow patients to be hospitalized for only the acute phase of their illness or injury. Government regulations for Medicare and Medicaid and other insurance require patients to recuperate at home or in a nursing home. With the shorter hospital stays, planning for discharge may begin the day of admission when a social worker visits patients or their families or receives a referrral from the medical staff. “It is our job to identify the least restrictive environment that will meet patients' needs for recuperation acceptably,” explains Patti Gardner-Jackson, LCSW, director of social work at CMH. “We have a holistic view of recuperation. We look at what benefits patients physicially, emotionally, and spiritually. “We assess the patients' support systems and resources and how they would manage at home, and we try to match our patients' needs with appropriate services offered in the geographical area. “As patient advocates, we must be familiar with local re Patti Gardner-Jackson, director of social work, guides patients to resources they will need following discharge. sources and programs. We help to streamline access to these services for our patients,” added Gardner-Jackson. “Although sometimes all they need is someone to listen to them as they cope with medical crises.” Discharge planning often means searching for a nursing home, but it can also mean referrals to various agencies or serv Access to high quality, affordable healdtcsre k one of the mod important issues confronting our country.

Home health services, hospice, home delivered meals, Medicaid, and Family Guidance are just some of the options. “Often it is difficult for patients to begin thinking about discharge the first day they arc in the hospital. It is very difficult for patients to understand the shortened hospital stays and how quickly we have to make decisions,” said Gardner-Jackson. “We spend a lot of time explaining how Medicare and Medicaid work and what they cover. Unfortunately, many folks have the expectation that the government pays for extended care in a nursing home, and they are surprised to leam the very limited Medicare benefit for nursing home coverage.” Along with planning for patients' recuperation, hospital social workers help patients begin the process of coping with and accepting their illness.

Mr. Kater did all of the composing for this album, and produced the music with his Peter Kater Group. Harmonica player Howard Levy, who has also played with many other local musicians, also worked on this album. The album, an instrumental, has vocals on it but no singing. Mr. Kater will be in concert with Native American flutist R. Carlos Nakai at the Rappahannock County High School this Friday at 8 p.m. Tickets are $15, and part of the pro J : 1 Photo courtesy of Silver Wave Records Peter Kater and Carlos Nakai’s concert is set for Friday. Dinner Theatre Conning To Fire Hall in June The audience is in for a treat when The Rappahannock Associa* tion for the Arts and the Community presents Fauquier Community Theatre’s production of the hit musical “Pump Boys and Dinettes” on Saturday, June 11, at the Washington Fire Hall. Tickets are $20, and include a diner-style dinner with the show. Proceeds will benefit the Washington Volunteer Fire Department. “Pump Boys and Dinettes” serves up a slice of Southern Americana as the Pump Boys (gas station attendants) interact with the Dinettes (the Cupp sisters who own and operate the diner across the street) on Highway 57, which is located “somewhere between ” Frog Level and Smyrna.” Their songs range from country, rock and blues to gospel, and provide glimpses into the characters and life in the rural south. In FCTs production, directed by < Lois Ross with musical direction by 1George Sims, the cast is ably lead by \ ;Jack Stanton as “Jim,” co-owner of | the gas station. A professional musi| cian and vocalist, he has appeared at , major tourist attractions throughout I the country. Jim’s partner (the brains of the I gas station operation) is “L.M.,” i wonderfully portrayed by Chris I Mothershead of Culpeper, who plays •: a mean piano. Rob Devehing of I Broad Run, a regular guitar playerI /singer at Warrenton night spots, plays the character of Jackson, one of the hands at the gas station. As the not-too-bright mechanic, “Eddie,” Herb Edward just about steals the show with his number “Farmer,, Tan.” Across the street at the “Double Cupp Diner,” the Cupp sisters, “Prudie,” played by Holly Ross Haynes, and “Rhetta,” played by Gail Gilbert, are smart, sassy, flirtin’ Southern gals who serve up a song and dance. “Pump Boys,” which is the collaboration of the efforts of six writers, opened on Broadway in 1981 and was termed “Totally terrific theater” by the New York Post. Following a successful run, the show has been performed all over the country, appearing at the Kennedy Center in 1992. The FCT cast is coming off a sold-out run which opened to rave reviews last October. The cast suggests that to get into the spirit of the show, the audience should come dressed in casual, country-western attire. The eveing begins with dinner at 7 p.m. Seating is limited. Tickets are $20 and may be purchased at Mountainside Market and The Earth Gallery in Washington, Culpeper Music in Culpeper and the Natural Marketplace in Warrenton.

Hater and Nakai have collaborated on a new album which is due to be released in June, and some of the new music may be included in the concert this Friday. The album is the third which the two have produced together. Their last one, “Migration”, was an enormous success and was in the top 15 on Billboard’s New Age Chart. The Body Mind Spirit Magazine said of the album, ““Migration” is an intensely moving collaboration which exemplifies creativity, purpose and melody in music...pure pleasure. Mr. Hater moved to Rappahannock with his wife, Chris White, and one child (now two .children) four years ago. They could have lived anywhere they wished, but chose Rappahannock. “The land here feels very special. The energy is very different from surrounding counties. I like the community; your friends can have such a wide range of interests. ” Mr. Hater says that Rappahannock and Boulder, Colorado are his favorite places to put on concerts. “My friendships here are not about my career. It is great to feel the community spirit. It is fun to share that part of my life with the people here,” he added. u This past week, Mr. Hater travelled to New York to see two off Broadway plays that he produced musical scores for. The plays, “Poster of the Cosmos” and “Moonshot,” written by Pulitzer Prize winner Lanford Wilson, are currently showing at the Circle Repertory Theatre. Mr. Rater has also produced musical scores for the Discovery Channel’s Series How the West Was Won, PBS’s Wild America, and The United States National Parks Services 75th Anniversary. Mr. Rater and his wife comprise the musical group Flesh and Bone. They worked together to produce “Skeleton Woman,” which is a musical interpretation of the popular Women Who Run With The Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Ph.D. Cecil Hooker and Bobby Read also contributed to this album. Mr. Rater performs from 50 to 100 concerts a year, in concert halls, music festivals, historic churches and jazz clubs around the United States. He has opened concerts for Dan Fogelberg, Bruce Hornsby and John Denver. Ticket seekers for this Friday’s concert have been calling from Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Washington, D.C., and North Carolina. Rappahannock County is lucky to have him as a member of the community and as a fine musician and composer.

'Ivor' Provides Musical Delight By SEAN KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newt Contributing Writer In the first half of this century, especially between the two great wars, musical theater in this country was dominated by Cole Porter, the Gershwin brothers and Jerome Kern. Their contemporary in England was Ivor Novello. Although relatively unknwon in this country, he was a prolific contributor to the English stage. He not only wrote scripts, he composed the music and was an extremely popular actor. Nick Olcott of the Washington Stage Guild has done an excellent job of bringing Novello’s music to the stage with a musical biography called Forever Ivor. The show, which was first produced by the Interact Theatre Company in association with the Washington Stage Guild, is now playing at the Theatre in Washington, Va. Pedro Porro, Steve Cramer, Rosa Lamoreaux, and Catherine Flye team to bring Novello’s songs to life. They are aided by the joyous accompaniment of Alex Hassan as they relate Novello’s astonishing career in English theater—a career that spanned more than 30 years, and included an early film career in Hollywood. Only two of the songs heard at last Saturday’s production awakened faint memories among the audience: Keep the Home Fires Burning and We’ll Gather Lilacs. The first was written as a patriotic song during the early days of WWI and the second during WWII. Hearing both was a treat. Review Those of us who cannot carry a song in a bucket are eternally envious of those who can sing well. This quartet left me envious. Steve Cramer has a powerful baritone voice that can fill the building—any building. Rosa Lamoreaux adds her critically acclaimed operatic voice to the mix.; opening the show with a love song and stopping it with We’ll Gather Lilacs. She is joined by Pedro Porro on many of Novello’s love songs and his warm, rich voice adds much needed color to the ballads. But it is Catherine Flye who has the most fun on stage. Her expressive face and voice are matched by Cramer’s; the two delight in using voice and gesture to gift wrap Novello’s lighter songs. This quartet of engaging voices, plus the delightful accompaniment of Alex Hassan, makes an entertaining two hours of theater. They ably explain Novello’s view of theater: “I want to give people the chance to dream againand I want to show them that .there is an art beyond the reach of mechanical devices and black and white shadows chasing each other round a white sheet.” That’s worth remembering. Forever Ivor will be performed at 4 p.m. and again at 8 p.m. on Saturday, May 14. Call 675-1253 for tickets. Middle Street Show Offers Variety of Abstract Art By DIANA BIRD Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer “Enter Nature” is a perfect exhibition for spring time showing at the Middle St. Gallery. On display are works of four women whose art exemplifies the genesis of abstract art in nature. This is transparently shown in Lucile Swift Miller’s photographs which are largely pictures of water and stones. She has two human figures shown only partially, and one stone image that resemebles a person, but for the rest, her picutres are enlarged details of nature that exploit the movement and organic quality we find there, charging with emotive power the matter she focuses on. Ms. Miller has created too, a large wooden image of an oval, gray stone which can be opened, revealing two books of polaroid tranfers of tinted scenes in nature. The soft edges of her photographs here give them a romantic quality. One of her englarged black and white photographs called “God in a Tiny Detail” appears to be of dew drops standing on a piece of beautifully curved wrought iron. This picture, and her other englarged photographs, unlike the polaroid transfers, have sharply defined details, emphasizing distinct textures. She is clearly a superb photographers. Roberta Delaney has eighteen pictures in several techniques: etchings, mezzotints, oil on canvas, India ink drawings, and more. She is accomplished in all she does and it would be difficult to say where her principal talent lies. I especially liked the crispness of her etchings and the effective use of color in the mezzotints and gouache and pastel pictures. All of her work is abstract. At first, I felt the subdued colors and simple shapes of her oil paintings were not as attractive as her other work, but the longer I looked and the more questions I asked myself about them, the more appealing their designs and subtle color combinations became. The character of each picture is dictated by the particular techique Ms. Delaney employes so that you would not guess the same artist had made all of them. Elizabeth Knowles, a sculptor, has the fewest pieces in the show, but her work is original and strong. She seems to take several kinds of plastifc netting which she covers with a substance that allows her to mold the base into any shape she desires. One beautiful combination of three pieces suggets seaweed or Review other objects being moved by the action of water. There are a number of small pieces, variously shaped and colored, that can lie on a table or in a case like sea shells; but I didn’t find them as interesting as her larger structures that need a wall to carry them. She designates her work “mixed-media,” which leaves one entirely in the dark about what she has made her sculptures of and how she has done it. Linda Jones’ paintings are primarily oil, oil stick and graphite on paper. She seems to be focused on oval shapes of all sorts, some suggesting heads and others both outlined and solid images. Her colors are usually earth tones, augmented happily with white, blues and greens. She uses a strong, dark red in several of her works, especially in one, perhaps an Indian viewed from the back, working with or on a circular object. This is her only frankly human figure. One dramatic painting looks as if a piece of copper has been applied to the paper, but it is probably impregnated wax. Two small works of oil on paper, showing skates’ eggs, employ colors in a sophisticated and sensuous way. She also has a large painting on canvas that is memorable for its strong designs. This is not an easy show to discuss and it was my good fortune to see it after spending a day looking at the enormous exhibition of Thomas Coles, an early American painter, at the Museum of American Art, and the Egon Shiele and William de Kooning exhibits at the National Gallery of Art. While the value and interest of every artist depends on a combination of her or his personality and purpose (to say nothing of skill and talent), it is helpful to compare artists to clarify the impact of art work on oneself. Experiencing “Enter Nature” proved a good way for me to begin to reasses my feelings about abstract art, which I have not usually found a favorite form of artistic expression. I feel these four women have taught me things I need to know. I hope they can induce you to think about and respond with your feelings to the works which they have so painstakingly done and which'tell us important things about who they are. The show opened May 6 and will be at Middle Street until May 29.

In the center of the stream is an island, appearing to have a surface of only chipped rock and small stones. Yet, this -~ unlikely ground gives birth to the most delicate and colorful flowers. How can such beauty spring from this apparently barren birthplace? Yet, looking more closely, there is fertile soil hidden beneath the stones. When times are troublesome, one may say, “Life sure is rocky!” Sometimes, life appears barren, as if nothing beautiful can exist Search deeper~into the Bible. God has promised that He is there for us “till the wilderness is a fruitful field" (Isaiah 32:15). In each soul is fertile soil. When tended with trust in God. the beauty of serenity will emerge..even in the “rockiest" of times. Worship in God’s Garden this Sabbath. Delight in the essence of His eternal love.
