April Heddleston made a presentation on the work of committees working at both schools to plan for teaching values. A survey of parents last year indicated that they favored having the schools teach values. Mrs. Heddleston said the committee had worked out plans to teach seven character traits at the elementary school. The year will begin with “Citizenship” in September. Mrs. Heddleston said the committee was recommending that the character education curriculum be integrated with the rest of the curriculum, particularly the study of literature, and not taught as a separate subject. Responsibility would be the featured virtue to be taught in October and Respect in November. Kindness would be emphasized in December and January. Honesty in February, Cooperation in March, and Self-discipline in April. The year would end with Appreciation of Learning in May and June. For each of the character traits to be taught, the curriculum includes suggestions for ways to teach it and suggestions for literature that reinforces it. Mrs. Heddleston said The Book of Virtues edited by former Secretary of Education William Bennett has many recommended readings, and copies of the book will be provided for each grade level. Copies of other recommended readings are generally available in the elementary school library. In addition each class is to select a “citizen of the month” who demonstrates the character trait selected for that month. These children will be recognized with a display of pictures of each class’s good citizen in the front lobby. They will also receive certificates at school assemblies. A resource kit has been developed with various articles and other materials to help teachers with the curriculum. It will be kept in the school library. The School Board also approved a new report card for kindergarten. Last month the board approved using the primary report card for first See Schools, Page A-6 Old Rag Bulletins u l High School Sports Starting Practices and tryouts for fall sports begin Monday, August 15. • 9 a.m. — Girls' Varsity Basketball —Laura Conklin, coach • 9 a.m. — Boys’ and Girls’ Cross Country — David van deGraaff, coach • Noon — Girls’Junior Varsity Basketball — Emily Wingate, coach • 3 p.m. — Cheerleading - Christina Delobe, coach.

Katzen Goes To Rwanda By SHARON KILPATRICK Hippihinnoek New* SUIT Writer Del. Jay Katzen, R-31st District, was unable to keep his appointment to meet with Rappahannock County constituents at the county library Tuesday afternoon because he left Saturday for a two-to-three week stay in Rwanda. Marge Van Deman, a legislative assistant in Del. Katzen’s Warrenton office, said that he had gone with a group of doctors and nurses sponsored by Operation Blessing, a Virginia-based humanitarian relief organization tied to Pat Robertson. The medical team will op- t erate from field hospitals inside Rwanda. She noted that Del. Katzen knows four languages of central Africa as a result of his career in the foreign service which began with tours in the area.

Man Convicted of Manufacturing Marijuana By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock Neva Staff Writer In circuit court last week, Jake Thomas “Tommy” Taylor, 35, of Castleton, was convicted of manufacturing marijuana not for his own use. Because he was tried without a jury, he has not yet been sentenced. That will happen on Nov. 14, when he could receive a sentence anywhere from five to 30 years, and be fined up to $10,000. This was Mr. Taylor’s second trial in Rappahannock County Circuit Court within four months. He was convicted in April of attempted rape, attempted sodomy, sexual battery and breaking and entering, and is currently incarcerated in the Rappahannock County jail. Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke explained that the case had evolved from an investigation involving another case. Mr. Taylor’s attorney, Roy Bradley, said that there was no question that Mr. Taylor was growing marijuana. “However, we are not talking about a forest of marijuana. The defendant has been a user of marijuana over a period of time,” he said. Major Ed Streapy of the Rappahannock County Sheriffs Department was the first witness to testify for the Commonwealth. He said that he had asked “The defendant has been a user of marijuana over a period of time.” —Roy Bradley Mr. Taylor for permission to search his residence in connection with another case, and Mr. Taylor told him that he would need a search warrant. He told Major Streapy, “If you search my house you are going to find something there illegal,” and admitted to him that he cultivated marijuana. Major Streapy said that when he obtained the search warrant and went to the house with Mr. Taylor, they first entered the main room. He said that under a day bed he found scales, two incubators (used for germinating seeds), a bag of green plant-like material, a 3-gallon trash container with fluorescent lights, several High Times magazines, a couple of pipes, two packs of cigarette rolling papers, three packs of little screens, and ajar with green plant-like material in it. Major Streapy said that he asked the defendant if he used the scale to weigh out marijuana, but Mr. Taylor told him that he just grew the marijuana for himself and his friends. In a storage room, Major Streapy said he found a closed box with lights and five cups with marijuana seedlings inside, totalling 15 seedlings. He also found 13 marijuana plants under a light. Deputy Connie Compton, who accompanied Major Streapy on the search, found a bag of green plant-like material on the premises. Major Streapy also introduced into evidence a bong (a device used for smoking marijuana) and several items which he felt were used for growing, such as fertilizer and Rootone. Leaves, one from each of the 13 plants, were submitted to the Virginia Forensic Lab by Major Streapy for analysis, and they were identified as marijuana. Special Agent* Hurst from the Virginia State Police testified that a crop of marijuana could be grown indoors to maturity within a period of two to three months. He said that the yield from one mature plant would range from one to three pounds of marijuana, and that the average weight of marijuana present in one joint would be about .0125 ounce, producing about 1,200 joints per plant. Agent Hurst also testified that he believed the street price of marijuana to be between $180 and $200 per ounce in October, 1993, the date of the offense. Two witnesses, Lewis Burke and Jimmy Wayne Nicholson, testified that they had purchased marijuana from the defendant on at least one occasion, that he had given them some on other occasions, and that they had smoked together at the defendant’s house. * Mr. Burke and Mr. Nicholson also testified that they had seen marijuana growing in the house. Mr. Nicholson claimed that he had bought a bag of marijuana from the defendant at least once a week from 1992 until October 1993. The defendant testified that he used to grow marijuana outside before moving into the house next to Laurel Mills Store. He said that he started growing them inside because of problems with bugs, snakes and people stealing some. He said that he had been smoking “herb” since he was 14, and that he was breeding plants to get out the genetic defects, and for the most potency. He denied having sold any marijuana to the two witnesses who said he had. He did admit that he had started a See Taylor, Page A-6

' Newbfll Miller of Washington was presented the 1994 Master Breeder of the Year award at the 47th showing of the All American Angus Breeder’s Futurity held in Louisville, Kentucky August 1-3. The award is sponsored by the American Angus Futurity and is presented to a person who has made a significant, long-range contribution to the Angus breed. The Miller family’s Ginger Hill herd is the Top Maternal Angus herd in America. They have bred the Number One and Two cows in the breed and nine of the top 50 cows in the United States for pure Maternal EPD. i i1 EPD stands for Expected Progeny Difference. A cow’s EPD is determined by a formula that involves pedigree, milk production, weights of calves at birth, at weaning, and as yearlings. It is an indication of how well the cow’s calves will do generally. The Ginger Hill herd also fccludes the Number One, Two and Three maternal sires of the Angus breed. These bulls will produce heifer calves, which in turn will be successful mothers to their calves. Mr. Miller and his sons Jay, Hodge and Brooke operate the Ginger Hill herd as a partnership.

I Peaches Are Scarce By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock News Staff Writer Peaches are downright scarce this year. .Most orchards produced ■ either a small crop or none at all. When asked how the peach crop was at Mountain Green Farm this season, Rose Ann Sharp responded, “We had 10 peaches.” And she was not talking about 10 bushels of peaches; just 10 peaches. Most of the peach growers also have apple orchards, which are expected to produce a much larger crop. Mr. Tom Lee of Lee’s Orchards reported that he has very few • peaches left, but does have Rambo . apples for sale now. His apples can be purchased at Lee’s Orchard on Fodderstack Road until Labor Day. After that date, the family moves the apples down to their stand on U.S. 522 near Massie’s Comer. Louis Moore, Sr. of Moore’s Orchards also reports a poor peach crop, but their first apples of the season are expected to be ready for sale around Aug. 20. Libby Whetzel may have one of the largest crops of peaches this year. Her pick-your-own business is located on U.S. 211, about one half mile east of Washington, on the north side. Right now she has Belle of Georgia peaches, which are white; Albertas will be available soon. "t Even though hers is a pick-yourown orchard, Mrs. Whetzel usually helps her customers pick, and points out the best trees for picking. She is open for business whenever her sign is out on the highway. Mrs. Whetzel also expects a late crop of tomatoes and Silver Queen com. She has 80 tomato plants, so will probably sell mostly by the bushel. i The Jenkins’ orchard, located on Route 621 in Woodville, has a limited supply of peaches, but they also have damson plums and Rambo apples. They are open every day from 9 a.m. until 7 p.m. but it might be a good idea to call ahead for availability. The phone number is 9878192. The Jenkins’ family will have pears and apples later on in the season. Leon and Betty Hutcheson, at Sunset Hills Farm in Washington have quite a few peaches for sale, many of them weighing nearly a pound apiece. Most of their peach crop is made into their brandied peaches and peach butter. The Hutchesons are located across the road from the Rappahannock County High School, and recommend calling ahead for availability, at 987-8804. The roadside stands between Sperryville and Amissville have varying amounts of peaches. Judge Denies North Permit for Guns By VAL VAN METER Rappahannock Neva Staff Writer BERRYVILLE — Clarke County’s Circuit Court judge was accused of playing partisan politics last week after he refused to renew a concealed weapon permit for Republican Senate candidate Oliver North. North lives on an estate along the Shenandoah River in eastern Clarke County. Judge James Berry, who approved the same request in 1991, turned down North’s March 24 application because, he said, North was not a person of “good character,” as required under the state law. Berry cited North’s ‘‘previous convictions for crimes involving moral turpitude.” In his order, Berry said he could not ignore those convictions, even though they were overturned on appeal because the government was unable to show that North’s testimony at joint hearings before the House and Senate Select Committee investigating Iran-Contra was not the source of the evidence used to convict him. North was granted immunity for that congressional testimony. A press spokesman for North, Dan McLagan, said Tuesday that the judge’s change of attitude “seems fairly politically motivated.” McLagan said Berry approved the same request earlier. “The only thing that has changed is that Ollie has become the Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate. Judge Berry is obviously a Democrat.” Berry said Tuesday that it would be inappropriate for him to comment on the matter. North requested the permit to carry a .38 caliber Smith and Wesson revolver, a Walther PPKS .380 automatic pistol and a 10 millimeter Colt automatic. His application cited a need to protect himself and his family from threats against his life as a result of his work for the National Security Council during the Reagan Administration, and because he has become a “high profile target” because of his political campaign. Several years ago, North traveled with a security detail. Now, a spokesman said, although he does have an entourage during his campaign appearances, there are no “official bodyguards,” around North. Corrections One ingredient was omitted from the recipe for Mary Williams’ pasta salad which ran in last week’s Rap' pahannock News. One can of tuna fish, flaked, should be added to the salaid. In the July 27 issue, it was reported that the Best of Show award for flowers at the Culpeper-Madison-Rappahannock Farm Show was awarded to Mary Bywaters. Due to a mix-up at the Farm Show, the ribbon was on the wrong flower, and the award was actually for a gladiola grown by Alice Pullen of Flint Hill. The Rappahannock News regrets the errors. North had been granted concealed weapons permits by other judges when he made his home in Northern Virginia as far back as 1987, but his permit was temporarily suspended in 1989 after his felony convictions. Clarke County Sheriff Dale Gardner, who is also a Democrat, filed an affidavit with North’s permit application, attesting to North’s “good character" in the community. “I don’t know anything bad about him. I can only go on what I hear,” Gardner said. North has 10 days to appeal the decision, and can ask to argue his case before Berry. McLagan said there are no plans to appeal the denial. Giving Blood Is Safe After more than a decade of AIDS education, nearly 50 percent of surveyed Virginians incorrectly believe they could become infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) through donating blood. HIV is the virus that causes AIDS. The findings are from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, an annual telephone survey gauging how Americans feel about behaviors that affect their health. The just released survey indicated Virginian’s fear of HIV transmission through blood donation increased from 38 percent in 1991 to 47 percent in 1992. This fear has caused a decrease in blood donations and can place blood banks in difficult situations. The risk of contracting HIV through donating blood is nonexistent according to Virginia Department of Health (VDH) officials. Blood donation centers use only disposable needles. Once the equipment is used, it is discarded, hence no person comes in contact with needles used for other donors. It is believed that many persons have confused donating blood with the risk of receiving blood transfusions. According to VDH officials, the Department is making efforts to reinforce the fact that it is safe to donate blood. “These survey results prompted us to reassure the public that there is no risk of contracting HIV infection by donating blood. We must ensure that blood supplies will remain adequate,” stated Dr. Donald Stem, acting state health commissioner. Marine Cited Marine Lance Cpl. Tremayne L. Allsberry, son of Anna L. and James W.

All persons are invited to attend a Wild-Simulated Ginseng Production Field Meeting on Sept. 9 at the Northern Piedmont Agricultural Experiment Station near Orange. A naturalized stand of American ginseng was planted in 1987 near that experiment station. Those plants are now seven years old and are ready to be harvested. ,At 10:30 a.m. on Friday, Sept. 9 we will dig up those ginseng roots and discuss various aspects of production and marketing of ginseng. This ginseng field meeting is sponsored by Virginia Cooperative Extension. There will be no charge for participation in this educational program. t The Wild-Simulated Ginseng Production Field Meeting will begin at 10 a.m. at the Northern Piedmont Agricultural Experiment Station. All participants must arrive before 10 a.m. The ginseng is planted at an undisclosed location several miles from the station. We will form a conr voy of vehicles and drive to the site together. Participants are advised to wear clothes and shoes suitable for hiking in the woods. Quite a pit of poison ivy is presently growing in and around the site. Persons who are allergic to poison ivy should not attend. The ginseng field program will conclude at 12 noon. The Northern Piedmont Agricultural Experiment Station is located on Route 15, one mile south of Orange. The station is located across from Colonial Square Shopping Center in between the Orange-Madison Farmers Cooperative and the Orange County Regional Jail. Turn right onto Research Road at the top of the hill to enter the station. Participants are not required to pre-register for the Wild-Simulated Ginseng Production Field Meeting.

We ran one letter to the editor praising the work of the Sheriffs office, and the next week we got one complaining about the workings of the office. When another complaint, not printed, came in this week, we realized there is a lot of misunderstanding about what the sheriffs office can and cannot do that needs to be cleared up. In the July 27 issue of the Rappahannock News there was a letter from Cory Koral praising the sheriffs office for its success in solving a “drive-by shooting incident.. .at our mailbox.” We assumed readers would connect the letter with a report on the front page that two juveniles had been charged with shooting at Mr. Koral as he got out of his car to pick up his mail. As the paper had reported in the July 20 1 issue, Mr. Koral was hit with a BB which is still in his neck. Earl Yancey’s letter last week complained that the i sheriff s office seemed to consider shooting a mail box more serious than shooting his sheep indicated that he did not realize the issue was shooting a person.1 But.there is more involved. Mr. Koral was able to give the sheriffs office a description of the vehicle used and most of the license number, something neither Mr. Yancey nor the unfortunate sheep was able to do. Perhaps the office should have given more attention to the sheep shooting. We’re not sure. But stationing a deputy to note what vehicles traveled the road on a later date during the half hour in the morning when the sheep was shot appears to us to be trying to respond to the complaint. This week the newspaper received a letter from a mother complaining about inaction from the sheriffs office when her 16-year old daughter ran off with an older man. The mother appeared to believe the man should have been arrested and charged with abduction, kidnapping or statutory rape. Since the young woman herself said she left willingly with the man there was no chance to charge him with kidnapping or abduction, the sheriff said. Statutory rape in Virginia applies only when the victim is under 15 years old, he added. The Sheriffs Office needs the cooperation of all lawabiding citizens in the county. While we do not experience the level of violence that exists in many jurisdictions, we have our shard of crimes to be solved. No useful purpose is served by attacking the sheriff and his deputies for failing to do the impossible.

And what a challenge to us all. The speaker was the Surgeon General of the United States, Dr. Joycelyn Elders. Her challenge to us all-—all races, rich and poor, female and male, elderly and young—was to open up our hearts, our homes, out churches, our places of work for the solution of our common problems— to do this together and in all ways. Dr. Elders was magnificent. In startling contrast was Delegate Katzen’s address. Choosing to ignore the theme of the breakfast, Mr. Katzen used his time only to state his opposition. He offered no concrete proposals. He could not find any common ground from which to reach out his hand from the other side. We found his address rude and disrespectful when he might have been sensitive to his surroundings; devisive when he could have held out the hand of brotherhood.

NOLPUTNAM SUSAN COVINGTON Flint Hill Support Robb To the Editor: There are a number of good policy reasons to support the re-election of Senator Charles Robb this November. All the voting tallys I have seen show him to be a generally positive force in the Senate. Rarely have I felt that a Virginia politician represents me as well as Senator Robb does. In this election, however, there is a greater issue than a partisan one. That issue is one of governmental process and the survival of our form of government. Today, from many directions, attacks of a wounding character are being leveled at the government as well as at the underlying assumptions our government rests upon. Those attacks must be recognized and defended against. When a majority of the people believe that government cannot represent them, cannot assure safety, justice and the general welfare, then the society is fundamentally threatened. A number of interests are working to bring about such a result and Oliver North’s candidacy is a factor in this undertaking. Oliver North’s candidacy for the Senate is based on his notoriety achieved during the Congressional hearings into the Iran-Contra scandal. That scandal arose because government officials in high positions undertook illegal actions. During the Congressional investigation into the matters in question, Oliver North became a prominent spokesman for what seems to have been a conspiracy to subvert not only contemporary laws but the Constitution itself. At his trial, Oliver North was acquitted on a majority of the crimes he was charged with because he was considered by a jury to be the tool of more important officials who were not subject to trial. In respect to the three charges for which he was found guilty, the convictions were overturned on technical grounds, namely, that they fell within the immunity that had been granted by Congress during the investigation. The facts on which the guilty verdicts were based were not challenged. Because the president himself was involved in the IranContra scandal, the political character of the situation enabled Oliver North to cash in on his TV-won fame. Oliver North’s political approach has been reckless and abusive; he has raised questions about the legitimacy of government as well as about settled government practices. Should he be elected, serious harm will have been done to the trust people can have in the due process of law. For many Republicans, Marshall Coleman’s independent candidacy doubtless reflects the sort of thoughts I have expressed. I believe both Marshall Coleman and L. Douglas Wilder have no chance to win. Charles Robb does have a good chance to win. Your support can enhance Robb’s chances. Vote for him. You may never have as clear-cut an opportunity to cast as significant a vote as you will have this November. DIANA BIRD Flint Hill Greenhouse Enjoyed To the Editor: Since my property adjoins that of Flint Hill Herb and Flower Farm, I would like to express my opinion of it. > A greenhouse is not at all likef a chicken house as quoted in your July 27 story. There are no noises, no foul > (or fowl) odors, no dust, no air or water pollution and no heavy traffic. , As I have no air conditioning, my windows are open, and nothing about that greenhouse has disturbed or annoyed me in any way. I fear no dangerous sprays because I see the owner and his family’ with three small children underseven years of age go in and out of the greenhouse freely, and all are In good health. No parents would allow their children in a place dangerous to their life. I am grateful for this quiet and ■attractive business, as it is quite an improvement over the pig pen, bam yani full of bawling cattle and pen of- • fierce dogs that we once endured . from that direction. . So far I have seen no large trucks entering or leaving the farm. I, for one, am glad to have the greenhouse for a neighbor. - , , MS. BARBARA GENTRY Flint Hill Labels Control Life at Yale By NEOMI M. RAO Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Welcome to the multicultural college campus. Here you will be defined by your race, gender, ethnicity and sexual orientation even before you enroll in classes. The labels come quickly and stick hard. Arriving at Yale three years ago, I thought diversity on campus would mean that racial and gender differences would be taken in stride. I through wrong. Through the diversity bean counters consider me a minority (Asian Indian, if you’re curious), I find myself in the awkward position of not considering my race and gender very important. To the “multicultural police” this means I’m a “traitor.” According to them, I’m supposed to be out there marching to “take back the night,” demonstrating for more Asian-American deans or throwing myself on the ground, covered with ketchup, to protect the mistreatment of Haitian refugees. Unfortunately, these preachers of tolerance apparently cannot tolerate a minority woman who claims an identity independent of race and gender. Today’s multiculturalists are the self-appointed heirs of the civilrights movement, but their message is worlds apart: divisiveness not togetherness. Rather than seeking to reconcile differences and focusing on the humanity common to all people, multiculturalism fans the flames of minority resentment against everybody else, including other minorities. Thus, blacks are taught to resent Latinos, because Latinos supposedly are taking away their jobs. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. dreamt that one day people would be judged by the content of their character, not by the color of their skin. | Opinion This dream has no meaning to the multiculturalists, who separate and classify everyone according to race, gender and sexual orientation. Those who reject their assigned categories are called names: So-called comforming blacks are called “oreos” by members of their own community, conservatives become “fascists.” Preaching tolerance, multiculturalists seldom practice it. Some people believe the multicultural movement exists only on the radical fringes, but it infects nearly every area of college life. At the administrative level, Yale has four “ethnic deans,” including separate deans for Puerto Rican and Chicano students. More than a third of all undergraduate organizations are based on race. Others are engaged in protects against American “imperialism.” Every year diming BGLAD week (that’s Bisexual, Gay and Lesbian Awareness Days, for the uninitiated) a publication called My Tongue appears, filled with pornographic pictures of homosexual couplings. The multiculturalists are not simply after political reform. Underneath their touchy-feely talk of tolerance, they seek to undermine American culture. They argue that culture, society and politics have been defined—-and presumably defiled—by white, male heterosexuals hostile to their way of life. For example, homosexuals want to redefine marriage and parenthood; feminists in women’s studies programs want to replace so-called male rationality with more sensitive responses common to womyn. It may be kinder and gentler, but can you build a bridge with it? Understanding your roots is important, but it can become a dangerous obsession. At Yale, as . elsewhere, ethnic fraternities and sororities make separation a requirement for membership. For example, pledges in the Hispanic fraternity are required to dress alike and talk only to their fellow brothers. Such groups teach students that racial and ethnic identity cannot coexist with the dominant U.S. culture. Members must choose one or - the other, but they cannot have both. To the multiculturalists, Dr. King’s message seems naive and idealistic. We actually were much more . comfortable and relaxed about these things in high school. Differences wer appreciated and discussed, but they were not the focal point of student activity. We appreciated diversity, but it was not the focus of our lives; people could identify with their race or choose not to. At Yale, on the other hand, we are forced to accept separatist identities—and watch out if you don’t 1 want to play their silly little game. * Instead of marching to “take' back the night,” reading My Tongue • or fasting in a cage for Haitians,' those truly concerned with tolerance. should be fighting for individuals who want to escape the multicultural nightmare.

Republicans Punish Defectors By JOHN GOOLRICK Democrats who openly back L. Douglas Wader’s independent bid for State Senate are likely to have an easier time getting back in the good races of their party than Republicans who go public for independent MarshaU Coleman. And that’s one major reason Wader has gotten significantly more normally Democratic activists to support him than Coleman has gotten activist Republicans. Coleman was hoping that his public endorsements by Senator John Warner, whose popularity runs high with state voters, and former Gov. Linwood Holton would give his candidacy a legitimacy enticing Republicans to join it in droves. Yet that has been far from the case. Indeed, there have been few people closely identified with the Republican Party willing to endorse him. The forces aligned with GOP nominee Oliver North have done so far an outstanding job in damage control despite predictions that if he won the nomination there would be many hundreds of defections from people who usually vote Republican. ! That’s not to say that sizeable numbers of people who backed Jim Miller for the nomination won’t yet opt to give some candidate other than North their vote this fall. But if thqy do, it will be for the most part done quietly in the privacy of the voting booth. / ‘For North that’s good news indeed since had Coleman been able to gather around him large numbers of Republican defectors it would have ■i i Virginia Through Both Barrels been very embarassing to the nominee. That scenario, one predicted by some pundits, seems unlikely to happen now. The basic reason is that any Republicans who publicly back Coleman will be likely targets of future retribution should they try to re-enter party politics. It would mean they would not be welcome at party committee meetings, mass meetings, at party sponsored fund raisers, picnics and the like. And with a Republican in the statehouse, it would also cut off their invitation to gubernatorial sponsored events and certainly to any possibility of a future gubernatorial appointment to some prestigious board or commission. Indeed, some Republicans who last year rapped their party’s nominee for lieutenant governor, Mike Farris, are finding fines of communication between them and GOP officials cut even if they did back George Allen for governor. Said one such defector, “I asked for an appointment to a certain board and thought I might have had a chance, but I’ve heard absolutely nothing.” He theorizes that some fellow Re " publicans who didn’t like his endorsement of Democrat Don Beyer have sent a strong message he should not be appointed to anything. With North’s most ardent supporters in control of the state party machinery and in charge or close to it at many local levels those Repbulicans who visibly desert the GOP Senate nominee may find themselves without a party for a long time to come. So even those who have no use for North, are generally keeping mum. By contrast, Wilder is gathering to his fold many who usually support Democrats and that is bound to hurt the Democratic nominee, incumbent Charles S. Robb. Said one party official when asked if defectors would be welcome back after the election, “Oh, this has happened before. We’ve always been a party of inclusion. I would hope all Democrats would support Chuck Robb, but if somebody doesn’t, I don’t think we’ll close the door on them.” State party chairman Mark Warner, who has close ties to both Robb and Warner, has said little on the subject. But state Republican chairman Pat McSweeney has made it clear that Republicans, especially those who took part in the nominating process, have a moral obligation to support the nominee and will be looked on with great disdain should they back Coleman oyer North.

J3ack in 1989, the county referendum asked voters: “Shall pari-mutuel betting on horse racing be perinitted in the County of Prince William in accordance with Chapter 29 of Title 59.1 (59.1-363 et seq) of the Code of Virginia?” In July 1992, however, the state legislature changed the wording of the referendum, shown as follows: “Shall pari-mutuel wagering be permitted in the County of Prince William at a licensed race track in accordance with Chapter 29 of Title 59..1 (59.1-363 et seq) of the Code?” “The Virginia Racing Commission cannot issue a license to any applicant without a valid referendum vote, within a five-year period,” said VRC executive director Donald Price from his Richmond office Monday. “However, according to our information, all of the remaining five racetrack applicants do have such votes on record.” In an apparent attempt to outgun any last-minute glitches in the Virginia Jockey Club’s application, a successful ballot referendum in 1994 would ensure Prince William County’s ability to overcome any challenge for the race track license its competitors may present as a result of legislative changes in the 1992 amended pari-mutuel bill. The same question was asked on an Aug. 2 referendum vote in Loudoun County. The pari-mutuel bill failed by a margin of 55 to 45 percent, negating the Old Dominion Jockey Club’s bid to build a track near Ashbum Village. The defeat of betting in Loudoun narked the fith loss for pari-mutuel operations in Northern Virginia. Off-track betting questions have foiled in Alexandria, Arlington, Falls Church and Fairfax City. •The Virginia Jockey Club’s James Wilson, a Middleburg businessman and successful racetrack operator in Puerto Rico, said after PLEASE keep rr DOWN. High blood peasore can be control led lb team how. call us American Red Cross the Loudoun failure that the opportunity still exists for the ODJC’s Joe De Francis and his Maryland racing circuit to consider an agreement for the Maryland tracks and the Prince William establishment, if it is approved, to cooperate on racing dates. The Virginia Jockey Club is the only remaining hope for a track in Northern Virginia, with the other applicants’ sites in New Kent County, Virginia Beach and Portsmouth. Wilson is also the only applicant proposing racing year-round, an idea he says is the only plan that can benefit the Virginia horse industry as a whole. Another track applicant, Arnold Stansley, is also poised to enter a racing circuit agreement with the Maryland Jockey Club, should his New Kent proposal be selected. Under an agreement between Stansley, a trotting track operator from Ohio, and the MJC, Joe De Francis would still run his Maryland-Virginia racing circuit. The racing in the Commonwealth would be limited to dark dates on the Maryland schedule, and year-round simulcasting profits from the site, which would remain open as a betting parlor year-round, would benefit the Maryland tracks’ purse structure. The Citizens for Horse Racing group has also enlisted the help and support of Friends of the Equestrian Sports Complex United (FESCUE), a grassroots citizens’ group. FESCUE, is promoting approval of the Virginia Jockey Club’s proposal to bu»| Dominion Downs Equestrian SportsHPark and International Race Course in Haymarket. “Not only would Prince William SHENANDOAH RIVERFEST '94 Saturday Augustl 3th,1994 ront Royal, Virginia •River Fun Games •Canoe Races •Fishing Tournament •Water Hodeo Events W •Historical Watercraft Rides ^•Balloon Rides (weather permitting) History Encar ment isplay -^7' ^Continuous Live Music i eln VA/otor Tiin r\4 VA/or •In Water Tug of War 'Arts & Crafts«Free Kids Corner •Canoe & Tube Rentals •Great Food & More! iM . /% \jT FESTIVAL INFORMATION 1-800-338-2576 1-703-635-311 Race info (7031636-1434 River Hotline (703) 636-4948 Friends of the i Chamber of Commerce & Area V Outfitters Riverside at Poe’s _V “ Shenandoah Campground, Front'Tj Royal, Virginia-Camping 636-6192 LXOirectiont: Take exit 6 off I Follow US 340£22 across 1st ' P Shenandoah River bridge, at 1st ‘ I Bght make a left turn, Follow signs i VjV balloons!

The tax dollars that are brought into the county by this track, and the development — that is what we want to confirm. ” When asked his thoughts on the recent failure of the same referendum question in neighboring Loudoun County, Ten Eyck merely said that “it increases our chances from one in six to one in five. I am truly sorry that any jurisdiction would vote against racing in this manner.” The Virginia Racing Commission is expected to have reached a decision concerning which of five remaining track applicants will be awarded the license before the November elections in question. A license should be handed out by Sept. 29.

On Aug. 1, the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) began adding a “ghost image” to its digitized driver’s licenses and ID cards as an extra security feature. The ghost image is a smaller version of the driver’s photograph and is positioned behind the biographical information on the license. Attempts to tamper with the license will result in a visible alteration of the ghost image and surrounding information. “Ensuring the integrity and security of the driver’s license is a continual process and an ongoing responsibility for DMV,” said Richard D. Holcomb, DMV commissioner. “The ghost image is an example of how use of the latest technology can better protect Virginia citizens against activities where fraudulent driver’s licenses are used in criminal activities. I believe the introduction of the feature to the license is an important part of Governor Allen’s criminal activity initiative to reduce crime in the Commonwealth. ” The digitized driver’s license and ID card, first issued in 1992, are produced using a video camera instead of a traditional camera. Known as digitized imaging, the process stores the driver’s image and other driver information in DMV’s computer. This information may be retrieved later by DMV and used to verify the driver’s identity. The new security feature bene fits law enforcement officers and Alcoholic Beverage Control licensees as well as DMV customers. “The new license should enhance officer safety to the extent it ensures drivers are who they say they are. However, officers must continue to approach each stop with caution and to verify driver identity when necessary,” said State Police Superintendent Colonel M. Wayne Huggins. ‘The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control welcomes any security measure designed to eliminate the production and use of fraudulent identification by minors for the purpose of obtaining alcoholic beverages,” said ABC Chairman Catherine H. Giordano. “The new security measure will enhance public safety.” ( t Monthly Payments Low As 27 9 Per Month Only 48 Months, Only $700 Down Low As $ 1 2,580 After Rebate Delivered Price Includes Freight Only Taxes & Tags Extra '94 ASPIRES DUAL AIR BAGS STANDARD * V.

I In his closing argument, Mr. Luke said “There is just too much here for this to have all been done for the defendant’s own use. He qualifies as an expert in the manufacture of marijuana. This is much more elaborate than you would see for personal use.” , Mr. Luke continued, “He has admitted that he gave some away. By his own admission he is in violation of the statute with which*- he is charged.” Mr. Taylor’s attorney, Roy Bradley, argued, “He is charged with the intent that it is not for his own use. How much is too much? This man is not a drug pusher. His intent was not to distribute; it was to use it himself. He has been trying to get the highest high he can get.” Judge W. Shore Robertson said, “There has been overwhelming evidence of his production efforts. Did he produce this for himself or for others? The quantity of marijuana belies the argument of personal use. I want the record to be very clear that the court does not find that he is a drug dealer.” Judge Robertson, however, did find Mr. Taylor guilty of manufacturing marijuana not for his own use. As pointed out by Mr. Luke, even if the defendant had not sold any of the marijuana, but had given some away, that was still not for his own use, and therefore he was guilty of the charge.

Social Security Manager, Culpeper - ' You may need to carry your driver’s license and credit card with you, but you can leave your Social Security card at home except when you need it for a specific reason, such as applying for a job or opening a bank account. It might be advisable to keep the card where you put your birth certificate, insurance policies and other important documents. This precau-. tion could prevent your card from being lost or stolen. And it is important to protect both your card and, your number. \ We use the number to record your earnings and, because your future benefits are based on those earnings, you should make sure your record is accurate. You can check your record by calling 1-800-7721213 and asking for a Personal Earnings and Benefit Estimate Statement. If your card is lost or stolen, you can get a replacement by calling or visiting a Social Security office. You’ll need to file an application and submit evidence of your identity. You also may need to prove your U.S. citizenship or lawful alien status. Also, if your card is lost or stolen, someone else may use your number, and that could cause you problems in the future. If you have evidence that someone else is using your Social Security number, contact us right away.

• Community News •Obituaries ■ t Rappahannock News Real Estate Classifieds WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 10,1994 7 Sunset Hills Farm Offers Variety of Products By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer Leon and Betty Hutcheson of Sunset Hills Farm are really getting into the gift basket business. They market their baskets as “A Basket of Virginia’s Finest,” and the name is registered in Richmond. This is the third year for their gift baskets, and the Hutchesons keep coming up with new and inter eating products to fill them with. This year they have added dilly beans and red pickles (yes, red!) to their growing list of products. The dilly beans have a kick to them, and that kick comes from habanero peppers. The habanero is reputed to be the hottest pepper in the world. The pepper looks like a little pumpkin, one inch in size, which starts out green and later turns to orange. It packs one huge wallop for such a tiny size. But don’t worry, Mr. Hutcheson puts just the right amount of the pepper in with his dilly beans. / Mr. Hutcheson said that all one needs to do is rub a habanero with your finger, put it to your forehead, and feel the bum. The peppers are flown up. from Mexico, and he . Rappahannock News Staff Photos/Cindy Mahan A gift basket of Virginia's Finest packaged at Sunset Hills Farm has apple butter, brandied peaches, and dilly beans all from Sunset Hills as well as Alpenglow and soup mix. , V Sculpting Attracts Children By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock News Staff Writer Sisters Jeanne Drevas and Nil'ia Moore taught classes in “shaping and sculpting” last week to 20 children. The classes were sponsored by Die Middle Street Gallery and took place at the Rappahannock County Park. ■ Both have shown their artwork in the Middle Street Gallery and other galleries for several years, and are well known artists in the area. Ms. Drevas also produces pottery which is for sale in the Faith Mountain Company catalog. On Thursday, Ms. Moore taught the children how to make paper. She" first had them make white paper, then added color pigments. Some of the paper was also imbedded with butterfly wings or other found natural objects. The childrens’ parents were also invited to join in the papermaking experience. Ms. Drevas taught the children to sculpt with clay during the other days of the week. On Monday, they made monsters. Each child worked on one monster for a while, then moved to another seat and worked on another monster. By the end of the work session, each monster had been molded by many pairs of little hands. ; The next day, the children made , plant imprints on flat tiles, and made clock faces. Wednesday was “self-portrait day.” Everyone brought a mirror and worked on clay self-portraits, constructing a head. Ms. Drevas said that this assignment was the most difficult for the children. They also constructed a road map of Rappahannock County, about four square feet, which included roads, streams, houses, even cows. She said that she hopes to do this project on a much larger scale at the elementary school one day. The rainy weather on Friday gave the kids a good opportunity to work inside. Class was held at Ms. Prevas’ house in Sperryville, and everyone had a chance to learn how ito use the potter’s wheel. Sheila Beals, a potter from Sperryville, assisted in the teaching. Also on Friday, all of the children’s work from the week was glazed, which made it ready for the final step of firing in the kiln. The second week of the “Great Summer Art Escape,” “Drawing and Painting Fun” taught by Laurie Marshall next week August 15-20, still has a few openings. Classes meet from 9-11:30 a.m. at the county park. The focus will be on making flip-it books, illustrating stories, comic character creations and painting. The cost is $40, with scholarships available. Call 675-3267 to register. Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Sheila Beals helps Sean Robertson throw a pot. Amphitheater To Host Big Band The Windmore Foundation for the Arts will present “The Kings Of Swing,” a big band from Richmond, Saturday August 27, as the first public performance in the new outdoor amphitheater stage at the Windmore Cultural Center, on U.S. 522, seven miles from Culpeper. The gates will open at 5 p.m. for those who wish to picnic, with the show beginning at 6 p.m. In case of rain the show will be at Culpeper High School. * Tickets are $10 for reserved seats and $5 for lawn seats. They may be purchased by sending a check to P.O. Box 38, Culpeper, VA 22701 or by stopping by a ticket outlet: Mountainside Market, in Washington; Old Dominion One Hour Photo, the Comer Shelf Bookstore, and Culpeper Music Store in Culpeper, and Sparks Grocery Store in Orange. For more information call Claudia at 547-2555. usually purchases five pounds at a time. The green dilly beans are packed with all of the beans standing upright, in a French canning jar, which makes for a very pretty presentation. The red pickles, also new this year, are made using cucumber spears, and are definitely bright red. They are sweet, with a hint of cinnamon, and are also canned in a French canning jar, as are the peach and apple butters and brandied peaches. The brandied peaches, which the Hutchesons began producing a few years ago, have been Extremely popular. They serve the peaches, apple and peach butters to guests at their bed and breakfast, and many end up purchasing some to take home. The Hutchesons have a store in a building on their property, where gift baskets and all of their other food products, including some from other parts of Virginia, are available. The Virginia-shaped baskets are purchased from a vendor in Rocky Mount, Virginia, and the Hutcheson buy them in three different sizes. The company also makes baskets for other states, and will make a basket in any shape desired. Their large gift basket is filled with brandied peaches, dilly beans, apple butter (sill from Sunset Hills Farm), a bottle of Alpenglow sparkling cider and a bag of Olde Shenandoah soup mix. The Hutchesons attend the annual Virginia Food Expo, which highlights Virginia producers of gourmet food. Mr. Hutcheson said that the Expo is a great place to make contacts, and he has had several gourmet food market owners contact him to sell his products in their stores. i ; They also advertise in some magazines, which brings in many orders for the gift baskets. “The gift basket business is growing. People like a lot of variety and quality that they can get in our gift baskets,” said Mr. 1 Hutcheson. The Hutchesons were lucky that their peach crop did not suffer too much from the cold weather last winter. Their rose bushes, however, did not survive, and there were dozens of them. They used to sell single roses, in all colors, fqr $1 each. Next month their mum plants will be ready, and they will have about 1,600 to sell. Mr. Hutcheson plans to retire from the insurance business in two years. He will then put even more time and energy into the gift basket business. “We are looking for a good year, and are excited about it,” he said. 1 Chrysanthemum plants are growing and will be ready for sale next month.

In a furious rage, he ordered his prime minister to cover his entire king Sunday Exodus 34:1-9 Monday Psalm 25 Wednesday Leviticus 4:13-21 Friday Matthew 18:15-17 Tuesday Leviticus 4:1-12 Thursday Leviticus 4:22-35 Saturday Matthew 18:21-35 dom with leather. “Your majesty," replied the wise prime minister, “let me cover your feet with leather, and wherever you go, you will be protected." And so the first pair of shoes was made! A child whose first pair of shoes appealed to our photographer has a long way to travel. His or her journey through life will not be free of thorns, and more than shoes will be needed to make that journey! > The child will need to develop that spiritual fiber which wilt do for his or her character what the first pair of shoes did for the king's feet. We can't carpet the whole world - but we can acquire the faith and courage which will enable us to climb life’s most rugged trails. Our churches and synagogues bring such qualities to the life of mankind. They point the way to happy, wholesome living - for the grown-up with the burdens of life on his shoulders - and for the little tot in his first pair of shoes.
