With Election Day less than a week away, the Reston mechanic is having a hard time choosing between U.S. Sen. Charles Robb, Republican challenger Oliver North and independent Marshall Coleman. All three men seem to stir little in Fernandez, except for North’s more colorful career. ' Count Fernandez among the tens of thousands of undecided voters who are dissatisfied with this year’s Voting Polls will be open Tuesday from 6 a.m. until 7 p.m. None of the polling places has been changed since the last election. Voters will get two ballots. In the national election they will be asked to choose a U.S. Senator and member of the House of Representatives for the 10th District. A separate ballot asks for “Yes” or “No” votes on three proposed amendments to the Virginia Constitution. i choices in a brutal and highly-personal campaign, where character attacks have all but replaced frank discussions about issues. But the wavering of the undecideds has turned them into the race’s most coveted wildcards. For Robb, North and Coleman, winning over voters like Fernandez in the race’s final week could mean . success or failure for their campaigns. Locked in a dead heat, Robb and North need those votes to break a tight race open. Both campaigns plan to go after that undecided vote — estimated at 15 percent in most polls — with a combination of negative attacks focused on character and personality and positive ads stressing accom- j plishments and ideologies. The Coleman campaign, which needs virtually all the undecided1 vote to win < is looking to pick away at lukewarm Robb and North support. Mark Rozell, a political scientist at Mary Washington College said the best strategy to court undecided votes is to run positive ads. Negative attacks do little to move undecided voters because they already have unfavorable views of the candidates, he said. “There are still a substantial number of voters who will likely afi See Senate, Page A-8 Old Rag Bulletins . .v . ■ !

Habitat for Humanity To Build County Homes By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock News Staff Writer Habitat for Humanity is about caring and having respect for others in the community, and a branch of the Fauquier Habitat is just starting up in Rappahannock County. Bob Darby of Woodville headed up a meeting at the library last Thursday night to introduce the new chapter of Habitat for Humanity. Over forty people attended, and signed up on the volunteer sheets passed around the room. Many local contractors, builders, and carpenters were present. Mr. Darby said that Habitat is an ecumenical Christian ministry that seeks Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Barbara Shanks and her family will be the first ones in the county to receive a house built by Habitat for Humanity. to eliminate poverty housing in the world. “It is being a good neighbor,” he said. i “The organization works worldwide. It builds and rehabilitates houses with volunteer labor, contributions of money and materials,” explained Mr. Darby. “It sells the homes to the partner families at cost in return for a non-interest mortgage over a fixed period of time,’' he added. The mortgages are usually for 20 years. The partner family must come up with one percent of the mortgage as a down payment at the time of closing. Habitat helps people who have shown their ability to be responsible and are looking for a helping hand. The prospective homeowners participate heavily \ in the building of their new home. They are required to donate 500 hours of labor or some other activity for Humanity, and those hours must be donated by the family. The first Rappahannock County “partner” family to be approved to have a new home built for them is Barbara Shanks and her family, who live on Piedmont Avenue just outside of Washington. Ms. Shanks has brought up four children in the same house she was raised in. Her two youngest children, Willie, 18, and Jennifer, 20, still live at home with her. Her oldest son Herbert is in the Navy, and daugther Edna will be graduating from Radford University in May. Willie attends RCHS and is studying carpentry and masonry at Piedmont, so he will be helping to build the house. Ms. Shanks worked at the Aileen plant in Flint Hill for 16 years, and her last day was last month. She is now employed at CCA in Boston. Ms. Shanks gives credit to Laurie Marshall, who told her about the Habitat for Humanity program and encouraged her to apply. That approval came about a year ago. In the next couple of weeks, the area for the new house, which will be behind the present house, will be cleared. i The new house, designed by architect Dwight Matthews of Flint Hill, “The organization works worldwide. It 1 builds and rehabilitates houses with volunteer labor, contributions of money and materials.” —Robert Darby will have three bedrooms, a kitchen, living room, laundry room, and one bathroom. Bob Darby is both the coordinator and fund raiser for the project, and Peter Kramer is the building manager. Other volunteer slots which need to be filled are for a volunteers coordinator and administrator. Mr. Matthews said that he met with Mr. Kramer and Mr. Darby to look over the drawings, so that they can be done soon and given to the building inspector. As building manager, Mr. Kramer said that after the site is cleared, he wants to get the footings and foundation and septic down before winter. He hopes to begin building in February or March, and wants to get the major portion done over a weekend. “It is not just for the experienced but for novices too. We can use all the help we can get. It would be nice to see people work together,” said Mr. Kramer. After the new home is built, the old one will be demolished. Part of the old house was built in 1740, with additions put on in 1968, according to Ms. Shanks. Mr. Darby said that fund raising needs to begin right away. Businesses can make contributions through the Neighborhood Assistance Program, and that entitles them to a state tax credit. He said that Habitat for Humanity is a (501)(c)(3) non-profit corporation. “I think we have the resources, and plenty of people with homebuilding skills here. We very definitely have a need in this county,” said Mr. Darby. His goal is to raise $35,000 a house. A second family has also been approved for a new home. They are Dawn and David Fry of Tiger Valley who started a construction project three years ago but Were unable to finish. A lot of support for Habitat comes from covenant churches. The churches provide prayer, finaincial aid, materials and volunteer hours. Ms. Shanks’ church is the First Baptist Church in Washington. Ms. Shanks remembers something one of her former teachers, Dorothy Butler, used to say, “Everything works good for one who has faith and believes in the Lord.” Ms. Shanks added, “With the Lord’s help this will be just fine.” 'Gang' Activity Concerns School Administration . V By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Neva Staff Writer The school administration is concerned about possible “gang” activity in the high school. A letter was sent out to all parents Tuesday. School Superintendent David Gangel said only a small number of students are involved. Some have been suspended for unrelated actions, he added. There were rumors of a rival gang, but nothing has come of that so far, he said. The letter states, “The Rappahannock County School Board is committed to safe schools and a positive, productive learning environment. To this end, any ’gang’ activities that relate to student threat, harassment, harm, or school disruption will result in swift disciplinary action to the maximum extent allowed by school policy and Virginia law.” It adds, “At this point, to the best of my knowledge no student has been harmed by the ’gang.’ It appears that the ’gang’ may be dissolving as a result of administrative and parental involvement.” However, it asks for cooperation from the community and sharing information. The letter notes the school system is cooperating with the Sheriffs Office “to ensure that our children have a secure setting in which to live and learn. ” Dr. Gangel said, “I’m taking it very seriously. The School Board will not tolerate any threat or harm to any of our students.” He said the administration is working with parents of some of the students involved and with the students themselves “to deter gang involvement or gang activity.” He said he feels this approach is achieving success. “Our kids expect a safe learning environment and a decent education. I’m 100 percent committed to seeing the learning environSee Gangs, Page A-8 Appreciative Customer Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Sharon Kilpatnck Pat Davis enjoyed her visit with Postmaster Linda Butler during Customer Appreciation Day at the Washington Post Office last week.

Mr. Hornbostel travels to Brazil frequently in the course of his practice of law specializing in Brazilian affairs. After college, he worked there for several years and is fluent in Portuguese. Few Americans have .the depth of knowledge of Brazil and the up-to-date information that Mr. Hombostel can bring to a discussion of that country. Brazil, the largest and most economically developed of the South American countries, has an increasingly important role in international affairs. It is neighbor to all but two of the other nations there and its Portuguese colonial background sets it apart from the others in interesting ways. Mr. Hornbostel will discuss some of these. Questions will be taken and refreshments will be served at the Library, as usual. Everyone is welcome. Do you agree, or disagree? Tell the editor what you think! "Letters" P.O.

Washington Business Council Sets Organizational Goals During the last Washington Business Council meeting held on Oct. 25 at the Flint Hill Public House the following suggestions were made: First and foremost that the matter of the needed brochures be addressed immediately, as the supply is nearly depleted. All current members will receive a notice reflecting the current listing of their business, allowing for space to mdke changes or alterations. The notices will be accompanied by a request to enclose an estimated assessment of $50. To help expedite the brochure, there will be a cut-off date for the returns noted on the card. On the matter of officer elections, it was suggested that more than one nominee should be listed for the various officer positions within the Business Council’s board. This is to avoid the appearanace of polarization among the officers. Also the entire membership is requested to cast votes or make additional nominations. Conrad Koneczny was appointed to contact possible officer candidates. He has done so, and a ballot was mailed to all current members of the Council Tuesday. A motion was made that a charter be established stating the purpose and goals of the Washington Business Council. The next meeting is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 8 at Ki Theatre.

Board Hires New Library Director By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Patricia Holmes of Warrenton will be the new county librarian. Mrs. Holmes will begin work November 14. She has given two weeks notice at her current job as a research librarian with Prince William County. She is also responsible for the vertical files at the Bull Run Regional Library. She earned her MLS degree from Catholic University in December 1998 while working at the Fauquier County Library, where she worked as a reference librarian and created displays for the children’s floor. ’ Mrs. Holmes has also been an elementary school teacher and veterinary technician. In the 1989-90 school year she taught English to Koreans at Camp Humphries, South Korea. Her undergraduate work was in elementary education at Southern Illinois university where she received a BS degree in 1985. • She has experience working with a variety of computer systems through her work as a research librarian. Mrs. Holmes Said she had long been interested in library science but did not pursue that career goal until her husband got a job in Warrenton. “I was looting for a career I could really eiyoy,” she said. “I love to read; it’s a life-long hobby. I have felt an extraordinary sense of peace in A' *ies, and I don’t know any other place where I have felt that.” She said that what appealed to her about the position in Rappahannock is that as the librarian in a small public library she can do a variety of jobs every day, “wear several hats,” she said. Of her new job, Mrs. Holmes said, “I’m looking forward to it. I hope we can get everybody in Rappahannock County to use the library. It’s a wonderful resource.” The Library board voted to offer the position to Mrs. Holmes following an executive session last Thursday. At that meeting chairman William Young said the library now has nine computers, three Macintosh and six IBM compatible. He said they have not all been installed and decisions still have to be made on where to place them and how to make the Internet accessible to the public. He said they could move stacks in the reference section closer together to make room for study carrels on the back wall. He said progress is being made on getting cartons of books in the basement onto shelves. Treasurer Helen Platt reported that at the end of the first quarter of the budget more than one quarter of funds had been spent. She said that salaries had run over and electricity had run over. She said she expected the salary line to stabilize once positions are filled. Electricity has run nearly $500 per month, she said, but Middle Street Auction Nets $2,500 for Gallery By CINDY MAHAN . Rappahannock Newa Staff Writer The Middle Street Gallery in Washington grossed $11,000 from its second annual art auction held last weekend. i After paying participating artists their share, printing and postage costs, the auctioneer, and other miscellaneous expenses, the gallery will end up with at least $2,500 in its bank account. The auction is the gallery’s main fund raiser of the year. According to gallery spokesman Dan Lewis, the money goes to keep the gallery running dining the year (piostly for rent and utihties). He said, “We depend on a fund raising letter in the early part of the year, the auction in the fall, and artists’ sales, for our main support to keep the gallery open. We need the support, and this is important to us.” Nearly 100 pieces of art, including paintings, sculpture, photography, jewelry, handmade baskets, and pottery, were entered in the auction, from about 40 artists. Most of the artists were local, and 20 were members of the gallery. Mr. Lewis said that over 70 percent of the art entered in both the live and silent auctions was sold.

Artwork by Mary Brownstein, Todd Siler,: Lynn Beaver, and locals Jeff MacNelly, Laurie Marshall, Dan Lewis, Sandra Forbush, Jeanne Drevas, Robin Purnell, Peggy Schadler, and Davette Kvames, also brought in substantial bids. Art lovers visited the gallery on Friday and Saturday to view the work to be auctioned off. Because some could not be present at the live auction, they left bids with the gallery to be made in their absence. Mr. Lewis said that an auction may also be planned for next spring.

STEWART WILLIS, Mayor that was during air conditioning season. The finance committee will meet this week to make recommendations on library investments. The board members asked to have reports on income on outside investments reported on a fiscal year rather than calendar year basis. Grace Sims said the policy committee had not met in several months. She said there had been complaints of too much loud talking in the library. The board adopted a policy stating, “The Rappahannock County Library Board is committed to providing a quiet environment for reading and study. Staff and patrons are asked to speak quietly and to keep personal conversations and telephone calls to a minimum. ” / Several board members said such a policy should not be necessary but admitted they themselves were sometimes guilty of talking too loudly. Ed Barton, president of the Friends of the Rappahannock Library, said when he came to the library to prepare the mailing for the Friends annual request for funds, he noticed a group of people who came by bicycle and had to leave the bicycles all over the lawn. He said someone suggested a bicycle rack for the library. The board members enthusiastically endorsed the idea and asked Mr. Barton if he could arrange for the Friends to donate it. Board vice president Mary Jai , ' mieson suggested the board reconsider its recently adopted personnel policy. She said the Library Board rather than the librarian should be responsible for hiring the assistant librarian and that the grievance procedure should allow for both parties to appear before the personnel committee. Roberta Anderson said the policy had not been in effect very long and should be given longer to work before it is changed. Mrs. Jamieson said there are only two or three things that need changing, but she felt with only three part-time employees the library did not need such a bureaucratic structure. “We can still be personal and have solutions that fit the individual case,” she said. The board should not receive all its information only from the librarian, she added. She said the board needs an assistant librarian who can think for herself. “When one person hires, evaluates, judges, all you, are is a gofer. We want an assistant librarian,” she said. Mrs. Jamieson’s suggestions were referred to the personnel committee. The personnel committee met Tuesday morning and decided some revisions in the personnel policy may be needed, but the issue will require further study. They decided to readvertise the assistant’s position because so much time has passed since the job was originally advertised. ll Halloween Sights Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Kristina Ryan doesn’t seem too sure about this character found at Marshall Boarman’s in Washington.

Unfortunately too many : Americans take it so much for granted they can’t be bothered. Next week probably once again only about half the registered voters in our nation will bother to vote. Only about one half the people old enough to vote are registered. In a close race this means that only a few more than one-eighth of adults vote for the winner. Yet these winners cast votes that affect the other seven-eighths of the people. Complaining about government is the national pastime, far in front of baseball and second only to complaining about the weather. We can’t do anything about the weather. Voting is our one big chance to do something about the government. In Rappahannock County those not happy with their electoral choices have an easy time expressing their displeasure. Write-ins are simple with paper ballots. Those votes count too even if they are unlikely to produce winners. What if the only people allowed to complain were those who had taken the time to vote? "Look here kids, if you're bullish about grouping... wouldn't it be easier to call yourselves a herd?" Rappahannock Heritage I Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Strange characters were seen in great numbers roaming around Washington Monday night. <• r ._ . ; Letters to the Editor North Supported Tothe Editor: Before we blast apart the same old tired lies about Iran/Contra and Oliver North and without delving into Chuck Robb’s partying past, let us look at Chuck Robb, the Senator. Senator Robb is a former Lt. Governor and Governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia and a six-year veteran of the U.S. Senator. One ; should feel responably confident that this man knows something about elected representation, yet his behavior is to the contrary. The only bill he seems to have introduced was one ot eract a monument to Geroge Mason. He has voted for every congressional pay raise since January 1989 and made a comment in a recent televised debate that he “would take food from widows and orphans to bring down the deficity.” He voted for a defense budget that included millions of pork barrel spending for budget committee members’ hometowns or alma maters, $4 million for the World Cup, and $2 million for the 1996 Olympics; but not enough money for emmunition or armor for the boys in Somalia. Chuck Robb is real budget and defense hawk. Ha! Chuck Robb has voted for dispensing contraceptives to children in school without the parents’ knowledge or consent. On abortion, Chuck Kobb has stated he has never supported abortions on a “fetus” that could survive outside the womb on its own. Yet the Freedom on Choice Act of which he is a co-sponsor would allow abortions the day before natural birth and would prevent states from imposing parental notification requirements or 24-hour waiting periods. He has voted for each and every cabinet appointee of President Clinton, support sending our troops under U.N. leadership, voted for each tax increase since 1989 and, until the last couple months, was still pushing the 50 cent a gallon gas tax he wanted in 1988. In fact after six years in the Senate, the one bill Chuck Robb boasts the most of is the crime bill which is unconstitutional with the gun ban included, federalizes the local police, and requires the locality to raise half the amount they are receiving in federal grants, thereby, precluding the locality from receiving these funds at all. But, what really gets me the maddest is that, when Chuck Robb voted for this bill, he did not even know what was in it as there were only four copies available; and it had notes penciled in the margin and stick-on notes affixed to the pages. On Chuck Robb the “Education Governor,” it seems to me that the blame for the falling SAT scores of the last several years should rightfully be laid on Chuck Robb and his Democratic successors, Gerald Baliles and Doug Wilder, for their “social engineering,” such as family life education. The Chuck Robb gang now tries to bring drugs into the campaign— openly suggesting Oliver North was a drug trafficer. How sad that he has to resort to lies because he cannot stand on issues. On the past and always present issue of character, Oliver North was a junior staff officer on the N.S.C. staff and according to his superiors “a very able and capable man,” “a \ rarity in government,” and “someone you put to work on the difficult problems.” He is being criticized even today for actively pursuing the policy of these same superiors, while any character flaws Chuck Robb demonstrated were for his personal and political enjoyment or to protect his own hide. Oliver North has earned our respect and trust while Chuck Robb has blown it. Oliver North will wprk to block President Clinton’s disastrous policies, limit government spending of our money, and will watch the defense budget like he watched the communists. Oliver North did not convert the sales from any arms to his personal gain. The security fence was a gift from General Secord so Ollie could protect himself and his family from terrorists. While at the same time Chuck Robb had to make sure he checked his pockets before spending his suit out to the cleaners. Oliver North like Chuck Robb is not a native to Virginia; yet, on the issues, he is aligned with Virginia’s voters and will be a Senator who will engage in debate on the floor unlike Chuck Robb who always takes the careful, fashionable and good for the image approach. Im not naive, I know that Republicans are not the solutions to every problems, but lately they have been. Most surely in this election the Republican candidate, Oliver North, is by far a beter choice that Chuck Robb. The Democrats are desperate to win this election, and they are using the same strategy that their candidate for Lt. Governor used last year—lies! They are having problems since Ollie has raised more money and he already had name recognition. Ollie has received the endorsement of the Fraternal Order of Police, the NRA and the Richmond Times Dispatch and many other organizations, all of which also endorsed George Allen last year. So let’s keep up the “taking back government” movement we started when we elected George Allen last year by electing Ollie North to the U.S. Senate. RON FRAZIER Chairman Rappahannock County Republican Party Support To the Editor: I want to respond to Augustus Johnson’s letter last week. This is my first time responding to the numerous letters he has written recently, with which I disagree. He asks, “What does a president have to do to get a little credit?” Yes, a crime bill was passed, but it did not include funding for 100,000 cops, only 20,000. Yes, an education bill was passed; at over $12 billion a year; how much improvement will there actually be in educating our kids; time will tell. The federal government has no business mandating education at the state and local level. I wonder how many congressmen actually read the 1,000-page document. Former education secretaries William Bennett and Lamar Alexander, in a joint letter faxed to senators urging them to reject the bill, said HR-6 “is the kind of pernicious legislation which, if is is enacted, wfil make American education worse, not better,” reported in “World” magazine, Oct. 15. “World” further wrote that the final bill “doesn’t touch schools that use materials depicting homosexuality as an acceptable lifestyle, but ignores hot school reform topics like school choice, vouchers, and charter schools.” Alice Rivlin, who took over the Office of Management and Budget from Leon Panetta, is opposed to federal financing of schools, “World” further wrote. Ms. Rivlin said the federal government should leave reforms up to the states. (See her 1992 book, Receiving the Amencan Dream: The Economy, the States, and the Federal Government. ”) Johnson accuses the Republican of “obstructionism.” Thank God they were able to stop the lobby bill; sounds like a good bill, but in actuality it was an attempt to silence citizens at the grass-roots level. Had it passed, conservative organizations like Focus on the Family would have to register and turn over their mailing list to the government. Beware of another bill before Congress called the Fairness Doctrine that is really an attempt to silence conservative radio and TV programs. Also, thank God the Health Care bill didn’t pass in its present form. Yes, we need reform, but does anybody really believe the federal government can effectively manage a health care system which represents one-seventh of our economy? The Democrats were trying to force Republicans to accept the 1,300-page document without having ample time to analyze it. Vote for Ollie North Nov. 8 to stem the tide of hypocrisy in this Administration. CATHY SMITH Amissville Robb Supported To the Editor: One June 20 of this year I submitted my resignation as Secretary and Treasurer of the Loudoun County Democratic Committee to work as the Tenth Congressional District Coordinator for former Governor Doug Wilder’s independent campaign for the United States Senate. Regrettably, my candidate withdrew from the race. I have always been a Democrat, and Senator Chuck Robb is the official nominee of the Virginia Democratic Party for the' United States Senate. At a luncheon in Leesburg on Oct. 14, I told Senator Robb that he has my whole-hearted support, and that I would do whatever I could to secure his victory on Nov. 8. This race for the Senate is very important to Virginians of all polticial persuasions. Virginia has only two seats in the United States Sen ate. It is one of the top polticial offices we have. Oliver North, the Republican candidate, has held no prior elective office. This is not a race for town council or board of supervisors, positions in which Mr. North would have a chance to prove his mettle. The U.S. Senate seat is for six long years, during which our second United States Senator will be representing us on some of the most crucial issues facing Virginia and the nation. This is no time for political experimentation. * ' I believe that Senator Chuck Robb has shown that he can be trusted to represent all Virginians Doug Wilder’s army of supporters has now committed itself to Ghuck Robb’s campaign. Chuck Robb is the best candidate in this race, and I-will vote for him, and I urge all Virginia voters to do likewise. GALEN BROOKS Leesburg See Letters, Page A-5 The time machine From the Rappahannock News back when, i 30 YEARS AGO Nov. 5,1964 As Rappahannock County went, so went Virginia!

Why Chuck Robb? To the Editor: If you have already decided to vote for Ollie North, then you shoidd stop reading here. There is nothing here for you, and what you may read will only ruin your digestion and raise you blood pressured If you may be leaning towards Ollte North or may have, decided to vote for Marshall Coleman, or do not yet’ know for whom you will vote, then please read on. I want to present the case for Chuck Robb. Most people look at three things when choosing a candidate: character} ability and issues. During this campaign, the question of character hag been deliberately blurred and distorted, so it is important to examine it closely. ien years ago Chuck Robb betrayed himself and his family. He recognized his mistakes, confessed his sins to his wife and close friends, and repented. He has not repeated those mistakes. This is important. This is not a continuing pattern of behavior, but something that happened over a decade ago. 1 Oliver North’s character withers by comparison. Many people are willing to accept and excuse his lying to congress as justified, either because they accept his explanation that lives were at stake, or because they feel that congress doesn’t somehow deserve the truth. But in fact, Ollie North has a pattern of telling lies which started before he began to work for the Reagan administration and still goes on today. It is a dangerous and foolish habit. Dangerous because it indicates a less than complete contact with reality. Foolish because North must surely know that, given his lack of credibility, people are going to check up on anything he says. And yet he continues on. It’s almost as if he cannot stop telling tales. If a senator is going to effectively represent Virginia in the senate, . other senators must believe that his word is his bond. They must be able to trust that senator. Chuck Robb has recognized that truth, and has never lied even when it would have been to his short term benefit* Ollie North does not recognize that truth, wid because of that, so very many people who have worked with him do .not trust him. The list of people who knew Ollie North, and have publicly stated that they don’t trust him starts with former president Ronald Reagan, his wife Nancy, and in low senator. It is hard to believe that many Republican Senators or that any Democratic Senators could ever trust Ollie Nroth. Virginia would suffer if he were in the senate. When it comes to ability, there is no comparison. Ollie North excels only in his ability as a public speaker. As governor of Virginia, Chuck Robb was able to reduce the crime rate in Virginia by 15 percent, and as senator he was able to use that experience to get a stronger eludes a former secretary of defense, a former secretary of state, a former national security director and a former secretary of the Navy along with many, many others. Chuck Robb has earned the trust of his feland tougher crime bill than was originally proposed. Ollie North’s only experience with crime is as a convicted felon. As governor of Virginia, Chuck Robb raised the standards of education while not raising taxes. In the senate, he was able to use that experience to make college loans more affordable. Ollie North wants to take tax money from public schools and channel it to private schools. As governor of Virginia Chuck Robb streamlined state government, and did not raise taxes. In the senate he has worked tirelessly to reduce the deficit (which is going down), and has been named to the Concord Coalition’s Honor Roll for his deficit reduction work. Ollie North would raise the deficit by his poorly conceived batch of economic proposals. Ollie North has no experience as the leader of the executive branch or the legislative branch of anything even as small as Rappahannock county. His experience as a bureaucrat in the Reagan administration prepared him only for selling guns to terrorists, and shredding documents. He is not prepared for the task of representing the interests of Virginia in the senate, and Virginia would suffer for it. When it comes to stands on the issues, there is again no comparison. Ollie North has embraced thfe extreme, while Chuck Robb has always represented the mainstream of Virginia’s thinking. On issue after issue, public education, fiscal responsibility, crime prevention, and civil rights, Ollie North’s positions appeal to a small minority of Virginians. Chuck Robb has fairly represented the rest of Virginia, and has shown that his ideas work. When Ollie North gets free of his handlers, you hear of some of his extreme thinking. His comments on U.S. military readiness didn’t impress Saddam Husseim who retreated when he saw the U.S. forces. His latest comments on social security being optional are also typical. Were he to become senator, there would be six years of this off-the-wall thinking in the senate. Were he to become senator, we would have a six year mistake to regret. ' If you agree that Ollie North is Wolf Recognized by Business Group „ Rep. Frank Wolf, R-lOth District, has been named “Guardian of Small Business” by the nation’s largest small-business advocacy organization, the National Federation of Independent Business. NFIB, which represents more than 600,000 small and independent firms in all 50 states including more than 13,000 in Virginia, honors U.S. lawmakers who provide consistent support for free enterprise by voting favorably on key small-business issues a majority of the time during a two-year session of Congress. Among crucial issues for entrepreneurs this session were legislative proposals dealing with balancing the federal budget, reducing government regulation, protecting small businesses from unfair bankruptcy laws. not fit for the senate, then you need to vote for the only candidate who can stop him from being in the senate. You need to vote for the candidate who was one of Virginia’s most able governors and took that experience to the senate. If you don’t vote for Chuck Robb, then you are voting for Ollie North. There is no other choice. J. KENT REEVE Chairman, Rappahannock County Democratic Party Credit and Blame To the Editor: Will somebody please tell Augustus Johnson (Oct. 24) that in the last Congressional election, the Democrats won majorities in both houses of Congress, and if the president, who is also a Democrat, can’t get his bills passed, it is because the members of his own party will not vote for them. Why on earth should the Republicans? In order to help the whiny Mr. Clinton get his way legislatively, the Republicans, the minority, would not only have to stand foursquare behind him, they’d have to fight for him. Get real, Mr. Johnson. As for everything else he is claiming credit for, the credit either belongs to somebody else (try Ronald Reagan for the freedom from nuclear aggression), or well, as for the rest, the jury is still out. You don’t get credit for situations in which even people on your side, like Mr. Johnson, say “cross your fingers.” EDITH POND Sperryville North Supported To the Editor: Most thinking Virginians face a difficult choice next week: which principal party candidate for the U.S. Senate to support? Clearly neither is perfect. Probably not as bad as pictured recently, both certainly seem flawed. Is a choice impossible? No! We have the same reasonable and logical basis for selection we’d use to pick between two perfect candidates: the principles and policies each supports. Among major issues: • Do Virginians need and want more government and higher taxes? • Do we want openly practicing homosexuals in our military? • Do we want nationalized medicine, governments in control of 14 percent more of our “free economy?” • Do Virginians oppose term limits and prefer to keep Congress just as it is? Answer these questions for yourselves first, fellow Virginians. Because Senator Robb and his party want all of these, and Robb has voted for most already. Then you too will support and vote for Oliver North Nov. 8. i JOHN L. MAROCCHI Sperryville Re-elect Wolf To the Editor / Frank Wolf has only been our Congressman for two years and yet it feels like he’s been with us a lot longer. Maybe it’s because he understands the district and spends so much time here, away from Washington, D.C. Maybe it’s because he’s a conservative like most of us, and understands what is really important. Maybe it’s because he does his homework and has a really good staff to respond to his constituents. Whatever the reason, I’m glad I get the chance to vote to re-elect Mr. Wolf Nov. 8. These days, with all you read and hear about polticians I feel that we’re really lucky to have someone as honest and sincere as Frank Wolf as our Congressman! ' BOB DARBY 'i Woodville / The Conservative Media and Ollie North Ollie North blames the criticism of his character on the "Liberal Media". Let's see what the "Conservative Media" say about Ollie North. The Readers Digest says, (June 1993 Issue) "Thanks to those shredded records, for much of the Iran-Contra story we have only North's word to go on. Too many past discrepancies hive shown us that Oliver North's word is not always enough." The Wall Street Journal says, (October 6,1994) "And interviews with a score of former colleagues, from the military and the Reagan administration suggest 1 instead that many who know him best are horrified that Oliver North seems headed to the U.S. Senate. They oppose him not because of his idealogy or what today he professes to believe. They oppose him not because they see Sen. Robb or independent Marshall Coleman as an attractive alternative.

Rep. Frank Wolf, Ready For Election Day By HEATHER DuVALL and marsha McAllister Rappahannock New* Staff Writers Rep. Frank Wolf (R-lOth) said he sees a great future for a health care bill and a rocky road for negative advertising. In the weeks leading up to the congressional election Wolf said negative ads have tarnished reputations and left the public wondering which candidates can be trusted. “Congress has problems because they all trash each other so badly and people remember that,” Wolf said. “Coke doesn’t say Pepsi will make your teeth rot out and Pepsi doesn’t say that Coke will make you sick, so you wonder why in the political process it goes on all the time. People don’t forget that on Nov. 10.” Wolf said he doesn’t know how to change the negativity. “Maybe if people stop rewarding the negative ads it could make a difference,” Wolf said. “It would be wonderful if you started a campaign without saying anything about the opponent.” “I will not be criticizing anyone because I am not that kind of person,” Wolf said. “It just is not my way.” Other issues on the Hill are positive, said Wolf. Wolf said he is optimistic about a health care bill that he predicts will be passed in the first session of Congress this year. “I think we can pass a good bill,” Wolf said. “The best thing the president can do is to get with the Republican leadership and say This is what we need to do.’ We need to get together.” Wolf said he could approve a health care bill with a few changes. “The problem before was the president had universal coverage,” Wolf said. “He threw down the gauntlet then. But if he compromises and works with the Republicans, then I believe it will go through quickly.” Another issue Wolf said he will favor is term limits. “I have mixed feelings about term limits because on the one hand you have term limits already every two years. At election time you can limit someone’s term,” Wolf said. The other side the feeling has been against the situations we have now like Rostenkowski. But if it came up for a vote I would support it. ” / Wolf said he won’t vote against assault weapons. “I voted for the Brady bill, but I voted against the crime bill because frankly, I don’t think it would accomplish anything and could make innocent people out to be criminals,” Wolf said. “The Brady bill doesn’t ban weapons, you just have a waiting period to get them,” Wolf said. “The Brady bill has caught people, and I think it will help the crime situation, and it has already helped it. The crime bill won’t do that.” i RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL HONOR ROLL FIRST ADVISORY Brought to you courtesy of 1 Rappahannock National Bank ALL A HONOR ROLL SENIORS s Jessica Arnold Shannon Eastham 1 Cyndi Welch ■ i JUNIORS Julie Bankston SQmOMQRES .

"This came up in 1985 and it is hard to say what can be done about it,” Wolf said. “If they were going to do anything then building a tunnel under Pennsylvania Avenue to prevent a drive-by incident could be the bfest thing.” “It is very difficult to protect the president, but the Secret Service has been doing a good job,” Wolf said. , Wolf said no matter what the issue, citizen involement is the best answer. “I don’t think you can do anything, nor should you, without citizens’ approval,” Wolf said. “I think it serves as a lesson when you hold public hearings.” “Watch what happened to Disney and the race track issue. You have to let people know and you have to involve citizens,” Wolf said. Wolf said one thing he steera clear of are local issues. “I didn’t get involved with Disney because it was a local issue and I don’t tell the local board of supervisors where to put things,” Wolf said. “Where do you stop once you get involved in local matters. Pretty soon I would be involved in school zoning and that should be left to the local people.” Wolf said he is ready for the election and the chance to serve his voters again. “I really enjoy helping my constituents,” Wolf said. “I will make some calls if someone is having a problem and I will try to take care of it because these things have an impact.” !] Young Model Photo courtesy of Deborah Flinchum Bruce Flinchum tries on an outfit from First Years he will wear Sunday in the Alpha Delta Kappa Fashion Show.

The pavilion at the Rappahannock Park was crowded with Cub Scouts and their families eager for an afternoon of fun. After the opening ceremony, the schedule of upcoming Pack Meetings was announced. The Scouts in Pack 123 can look forward to a Turkey Shoot in November, followed by an early winter hike in December. The dreary days of January will fly by as Scouts carve, sand and paint their model racing cars in readiness for the annual Pinewood Derby in the last in the month. Next on the meeting agenda was the presentation of achievement badges. In the Webelos I den, Artists Activity Badges were award to David Reidel, Andrew Burke, D.J. Frye, Arlen Sherwood, Jeff Scroggin, Joey Pullen and Joseph Peregory. Three Scouts received badges ii i : - for completing the Wolf Cub Scout Achievement Trail—Andrew Burke, Nate Martin and Daniel Pierson. The Bobcat Badge, the first badge of rank a Cub Scout earns, was presented to Jeff Scroggin, Joey Pullen, !. Joseph Peregory, Mike Weiss and; Michael Thiel. Congratulations Scouts, for a job well done! Following the awards ceremony, Scouts and their families got to know one another while eiyoying a hot dog roast. The well-fed crowd then settled down to listen to a scary tale expertly told by storyteller Mike Dunnigan. Not a sound was heared*; from the rapt audience—a highly unusual occurrance in boys this age. The last half-hour of the gathering returned to more active things with apple bobbing, a bowling game, and Scouts and siblings making full* use of the center playground. 1 Keep your fingers crossed for good weather for our next Pack Meeting—the Turkey Shoot on Nov. E Town Planners Work on Ordinance Definitions By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock New* Staff Writer The Washington Planning Commission met on Oct. 24 to discuss definitions of “aggrieved party” and “structure,” as they relate to the Town of Washington ordinances. Mayor Stew Willis had requested the Planning Commission look at the Historic District Ordinance in particular to see if the definitions needed clarification or needed to be more specific. Members present, Chairperson Susan Parrish, Louise van Dort, Mitzie Young and Steve Critzer, voted to recommend the following definition be used for “aggrieved party”: “In order for a person to be ‘aggrieved’ it must affirmatively appear that he had some direct interest in the subject matter of the proceeding that he seeks to attack. The petitioner must show that he has an immediate, pecuniary and substantial interest in the litigation, and not a remote or indirect interest.” This definition was included in a letter from Town Attorney Frank Reynolds to the Washington Town Council dated Oct. 12, and is a principle stated by the Virginia Supreme Court. . The members also voted to use the definition of “structure” as listed in the definitions behind the Zoning Ordinance in the book of the Town of Washington 1993 Ordinances, which reads “Anything constructed or erected, the use of which requires* permanent location on the ground,^, or attachment to something having a^. permanent location on the ground." This includes among other things', dwellings? buildings, signs, etc.” ; They also voted to remove the, words “his or her,” and replace them _ with “the,” as suggested by County^ Administrator John McCarthy, froml the second sentence of Section 5.11 of the Historic District Ordinance having to do with an appeal of a deci- - sion by the ARB. That sentence-* would then read “Any applicant, or. other person, or governmental body,, or agency, aggrieved by the final decision taken by the ARB on the application may make appeal. Also included in the recommendations to the Town Council will be one which states that the same set ofdefinitions used for the Zoning Ordinance should be used for all town or-* (finances. ™E Jglack Pemtg; Phone (703) 837-2150 P***-«*'* V.

The team finishes the season with six wins, five losses and one tie. David Brandt scored 23 of the team’s 39 goals this season. AThe girls’ volleyball team finished its regular season by defeating Seten School of Manassas three games to two in a five game match.

Coaches from Seton taught the girls how to swing dance, i WCDS senior Coleen O’Donnell and sophomore Bridget Hickson were named to the All-conference team. Coach Pam Henry was named coach of the year for the western division of the conference. The team ended the season with a six win to two loss western division record six and four overall in the conference. By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock News Staff Writer RCHS’s cross country team placed a respectable fifth in the Bull Run District meet held near Stonewall-Jackson last Wednesday. Of the eight members of the team who had qualified to compete in the meet, Mark Jenkins and Caroline Baumgardner placed high enough to be named to the All Bull Run District team. They will compete at the regionals which will be held in Charlottesville on Nov. 2. Mark finished ninth with a time of 16:57:30, and Caroline was 14th with a time of 21:58:94. Eddie Sause came in 20th at 17:50:46; Jeff Atkins came in 33rd with a time of 18:36:62; R.J. White was 43rd with a time of 19:15:40; Mike Wolfe was 44th with a time of 19:24:69; Jason Brown was 55th with a time of 20:50:87, and Ray Atkins was 57th at 21:06:25. Coach David van de Graaff said that Eddie had a “side stitch,” a sharp pain in the side, that kept him from finishing with a faster time. For the first time this season, RCHS beat Page, and did so by 20 points. In the meet, RCHS had 149 points and Page had 169. Central won with 20 points; Strasburg had 64; Stonewall Jackson had 92; and Brentsville 97. The first four boys over the finish line were all Central students, and the winner was Adam Bennett with a time of 15:44:38. The Lady Panthers lost two more basketball games this past week. Clarke teat them last Wednesday night, 32-60. The high scorer was Jessica Arnold with eight points; Susan Jewell and Janet Hitt each made six points. Strasburg also defeated the varsity, 25-64, on Monday night. Hope Dunn had an amazing 17 rebounds. “I think that’s very commendable,” said Coach Laura Conklin. Janet Hitt was high scorer with 13 points. The girls finished out their season with a home game against George Mason on Tuesday night. Boys’ varsity basketball coach Eugene Baltimore said tryouts will be held on Nov. 14 and 15, with cuts being made on the 15th. He is so excited that he wishes they could start playing tomorrow. “They are ready,” he said. Lucas Stanley will be coaching the junior varsity, and Jason Gochenour will be the 8th grade coach.

SEE WHAT THE ONLY GOVERNOR ELECTED AS BOTH A DEMOCRAT & REPUBLICAN HAS TO SAY ABOUT OLIVER NORTH... ********* Virginians for North Mills E. Godwin, Jr., Chairman ' Governor of Virginia 1966-'70 (D) 1974-'78 (R) J. Clifford Miller, Jr., Co-Chairman former Chairman, 3rd Dist. Dem. Comm Maurice B. Rowe, Coordinator Hon. Geline B. Williams former Mayor, City of Richmond November 1, 1994 Dear Fellow Virginians: Ten thousand and more Virginia voters have identified with Virginians for North, and among them are Republicans, Democrats and Independents who are supporting Oliver North for the United States Senate. We ask for your help in electing him. Talk to your neighbors and friends and urge them to vote for him on November 8. I held public office in Virginia over a period of 30 years as a member of the House of Delegates, the State Senate, Lieutenant Governor and twice as Governor. I am confident that Oliver North embraces the values most Virginians cherish, and he will give Virginia a strong voice in the United States Senate. We support him because of the principles to which he is committed, and are shared by the clear majority of Virginians. We desperately need a change in Washington. We need a Congress that is fully aware of the threat to our country posed by the Clinton Administration which Robb so ardently and consistently supports. Colonel North will be a leader and bring about this change of direction. Olhe is on the conservative side or all the important issues. He supports term limits for Congress, a presidential line-item veto, strict sentences for violent criminals and the freedom guaranteed by our right-to-work law in Virginia. His opponent supports none of these positions. On the other hand, North opposes statehood for the District of Columbia with two new senators, a socialized version of medicine, and the hypocritical so called anti-crime bill which ten of Virginia's thirteen members of Congress voted against. By contrast, Robb supports these outrageous and liberal propositions and recently cast his vote in the Senate to help emasculate Virginia's sacred right-to-work law. Nothing can be worse for Virginia than the continuation of the status quo as represented by Robb. Simply put, we need a different sort of man in the United States Senate. Oliver North is that man. Able, energetic and committed, he will help restore the faith of our people in their government. With your help Ollie North Will be elected on November 8, and we look forward to a splendid victory. Thank you for all your help. Most Sincerfely ^-A Mills E. Godwin, Jr. The following list shows a small number of the over 10,000 individuals who have affiliated with Virginians For North.

The widely-respected Mason-Dixon poll and other polls show that North has higher unfavorable ratings than Robb, indicating that undecided voters would likely favor Robb over North. “We are going to be appealing to the undecided voter,” said Bert Rohrer, Robb’s campaign spokesman. Rohrer said Robb will zero in on North’s “extremism,” namely North’s links to controversial religious figures like Pat Robertson and his campaign donors who gave to former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke. Trying to appeal to moderate voters, Robb also will stress North’s opposition to abortion and gun control. Rozell said those issues have faded in importance with voters, but invoking them will help Robb shore up his Democratic base. Rohrer said the campaign also will target those voters now backing Coleman, which include moderate Republicans, military retirees and disaffected independents. “If those votes break away from Coleman, they would break 3 to 1 to Robb,” Rohrer said. Rozell predicted that Coleman’s support should fade by Election Day, which usually happens to independents. “That’s good news for Chuck Robb,” he said. No matter what Robb or Coleman do, Robb has been getting some help from North himself. In the past few weeks, North has gone underground and into tightly controlled public events after saying he would make Social Security voluntary and charging that budget cuts made the military ill-prepared for war. Adding to North’s woes, several Republicans have downplayed North’s military service and charged that he has a penchant for fabricating stories. North has beten haunted by allegations that he knew some of his gun-running pilots had smuggled cocaine into the United States during the Iran-Contra effort. The drug-trafficking allegation is one of the strongest indictments against North. But North contends that he passed information about the drug smugglers to federal authori ties. He has characterized publicity about the issue as proof that the“liberal media” are bent on destroy-' ing his political career. Flushed with a $17 million war chest from mostly out-of-state donors, North campaign officials say they will continue negative TV ads that remind voters about Robb’s personal life as Virginia governor,his close ties with President BUT Clinton and a lackluster congressional record that Robb himself said is nothing to brag about. Dan McLagan, a North spokesman, refused to comment for this story. ; Responding to charges that North is a fringe candidate, North himself has portrayed Robb “as the extremist in this race,” saying that “the guy who raises taxes, slashes defense spending and throws thousands of Virginians out of work is the extremist.” While Robb and North seek to break their deadlock, the challenge for Coleman appears more daunting. His campaign lacks the money for TV spots, and media interest in Coleman trails that for the main party candidates. Recent polls show support for Coleman dropping to the mid-teens. Eric Peterson, Coleman’s spokesman, said the campaign won’t adopt new strategies and expects to stay positive while Robb and North conduct “character assassinations.” Monster Muncher A monster praying mantis was observed on Halloween as it hungrily watched human traffic on Route 622 in Castleton. V ►Gangs From Page A-l ment here is maintained,*^ he said. Sheriff John Henry Woodward said the situation in Rappahannock is much less serious than in several surrounding counties. Nevertheless, he said, some students had gotten the idea to start gangs, adopting names from gangs that started in Los Angeles. He said that those gangs have enforcers to make sure no group uses those names that is not authorized to do so, but Rappahannock students seemed unaware of that. “Any talk of gangs is a concern to me,” he said. “But my biggest concern is a group in Sperryville, and I’m not labeling that a gang.” He said that people in.that group are adults and dropouts, only two or three are current students, he said. He added that he does not believe that group is connected with the school group that was calling itself a gang. “What happened at the school, the school has taken care of,” he said. No criminal activity was involved and the school administration has kept him informed, he added. In what may be a related matter, the Sperryville Emporium was broken into between 6 p.m. Wednesday night and 8:30 a.m. Thursday morning, Sheriff Woodward said. He said thieves took $100 worth of coins, $100 worth of beef jerky, 87 knives and six cartons of Marlboro cigarettes together valued at $355. The knives included “defensive knife sticks, bone handled knives, hunting knives, knives with lock blades and Swiss army knives,” he said. As far as anyone knows none of these materials has turned up at the school, but Sheriff Woodward said his department believes the thieves were probably juveniles. He said he would welcome information from anyone in the community about that incident.

Blessing the Rappahannock Hunt s Riders, horses and hounds gather for the blessing before the opening meet in front of Montpelier in the Impressions Gained Crossing Siberia on the Railroad By DIANA BIRD Rappahannock Newt Contributing Writer Browsing in Terry’s Japanese Empire-A Guidebook for Travelers published in 1919, I found a supplement on the “Trans-Siberian Railway.” The author, while thorough with relevant facts, doesn’t hesitate to convey his opinions where he believes them to be facts too, and his advice is not to take the railway trip. I cite just one of many remarks: “Trains make long stops at stations and are started by the triple ringing of a bell at short intervals. The third warning follows the second almost immediately, and the train pulls out forthwith. As to be left at a Siberian station is almost equivalent to falling overboard from a steamship in midocean, travelers should not stray too far from the train.” Weighing this somber warning and others as dire, I nonetheless hoped that the seven days’ journey we proposed to undertake between Mongolia and Moscow would give me a sense of conditions in Russia that might help me to understand news from there with new insight. In that respect, but not in others, I fear my trip was disappointing. The view from the train is too fragmentary and confined to make anything I might seem to have learned more than suspect. A non-Russian speaking person looking out train windows and stopping in cities from time to time is like a deaf-mute trying to communicate through sign language with someone who knows nothing about it. The overarching impression I had of the Siberian landscape was one of great beauty. As the countryside opened up to us for the thousands of miles we traveled west, we were more or less constantly in rolling hilly land covered with birch, spruce, Siberian pine or other sorts of evergreen and deciduous trees. Valleys of pastures and grain growing fields stretched toward hills everywhere, especially green owing to ' Photo courtesy of Joyce Abell and Sharon Wyrrick Sharon Wyrrick and Joyce Abell prepare for their program at Ki Theatre in mid November. Program of Monologues Scheduled for Ki Theatre An upcoming program at Ki Theatre has the intriguing name “Frogs, Toads, ’Coons and Cows.” Joyce Abell and Sharon Wyrrick will demonstrate the varied forms monologues can take. Joyce Abell will perform two monologues: “Elderberries” and “Rupert’s Birthday," both written by playwright Ken Jenkins. “Elderberries” is the story of a girl, an old man, and the white raccoon he gave to her. “Rupert's Birthday” presents an independent woman reminiscing about the epiphany of helping a calf be bom and its aftermath. Ms. Abell’s performance of “Rupert’s Birthday” was greeted with great enthusiasm at last spring’s Open Theatre pro gram at Ki Theatre. Sharon Wyrrick will perform her newest solo, “Bufo americanus (The American Toad).” This will be the premiere performance of this work that uses dance, theatre and visuals to combine autobiographical stories, stories about amphibia, and social statement. The figures of the toad and other amphibia have been chosen because of their relationship to the environment as indicators of environmental health. The evening promises to be entertaining and thought provoking. For information and reservations call Ki Theatre at 675-1615. Advance tickets can be purchases at Mountainside Market. 1, recent rains and perhaps the effects of melted snow. As we saw more and more handsome and alluring open country and forests, it was hard to understand how Russia could be poor and need to import wheat. Only at Lake Baikal on the north face of a mountain did we see a patch of snow remaining, but we were told that in that region there are only 72 frost-free days a year. Our journey did not pass along a route south of Irkutsk, which is at 51 latitude. In our part of the world that latitude is near the bottom of Hudson’s Bay and north of Winnipeg, Canada. The northern tip of Maine is 47. Familiar wildflowers growing near the train track delighted us. The weather was warm to hot every day. In some places, a crop seemed ready to harvest even though in others, land had recently been plowed for sowing, exposing a dark chocolate colored earth. The grandeur and lushness of the countryside belied the underlying problem of cold. Coming upon Siberia at the end of June when rain has been favorable suggested to us that more could be done there than has apparently occurred. I recalled Khrushchev going home from a visit to our midwest believing he could revolutionize Russia’s agriculture with com. In many places cattle grazed and to our surprise there were often leftover haystacks. We saw no bales of hay. The contrast we had to grapple with was the sameness and poverty of the villages located near the train tracks and otherwise isolated from contact with the outside world. The villages were made up of small wooden dwellings, usually one story high, unpainted or painted long ago, lined up in rows facing a mud street. Our journey took us through Siberia’s back yards. These yards were picturesque, no piled up junk cars or dead washing machines, but it was picturesque poverty, not prosperity. Only in cities and on their outskirts did we see paved streets. Each house was surrounded by a small paling fence. Large stacks of wood were already anticipating winter. Most of the garden area around the houses was devoted to rows of potatoes. Often we saw potato patches planted outside the villages too on what seemed to be railroad property. Shrubs and trees around the houses produced berries and fruit. Plastic-covered frames were used to start and protect other vegetables. We did not see chicken coops or pig pens, but they may have been about, only a scattering of geese. Living close to train tracks Theatre To Present Schubert Concert “An Evening of the Intimate Schubert” comes to The Theatre at Washington at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 12 with a recital of songs and piano music by Rosa Lamoreaus, soprano, Richard Kennedy, tenor, and Betty Bullock, piano. Rosa Lamoreaux’s performance of this concert during a music festival in Carmel, Ca., earlier this year was a “selj out.” She performs throughout the United States and abroad to high critical acclaim. In this area, she appears frequently at the Kennedy Center, the Washington Cathedral and the Smithsonian Institution. This will be Ms. Lamoreaux’s third vist to the Theatre at Washington. New to the Theatre will be tenor Richard Kennedy, who has an exceptional background in the music of Schubert. After graduating from the Indiana University School of Music he studied at the Franz Schubert Insitute in Austria, where, in 1981, he won the Franz Schubert Prize for Singers. He has given recitals in this country, including the Spoleto Festival USA, and Carnegie Hall, and abroad. Pianist Betty Bullock will play two solos, from Moments Musicaux, opus 94, as well as accompany the singers. She won the Austrian Franz Schubert Prize for accompanists and is head of the accompanying staff of the American Institute of Musical Studies in Graz, Austria. She was formerly associate dean of the Oberlin Conservatory of Music. The appeal of Schubert is not hard to understand. “Franz Schubert transformed a world of poetry into music,” according to Fischer-Diskau, probably the best known interpreter of Schubert in recent times. As a biography of the composer explains, “One of the reasons for the abiding popularity of Schubert’s songs is simple: whatever other element may or may not be present, the primary essential...an attractive and singable tune, is rarely absent.” The recital of music by Schubert will be held at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 12. Tickets are %\2 and children are half price. Seating is reserved. For reservations or more information phone 6751253. where noisy carriages passed frequently in both directions might seem of questionable comfort, but in the desolation of that remote part of the world, the train may be a life line and a principal hope for access to civilization. We were told many leave the villages for the cities every year. “As to be left at a Siberian station is almost equivalent to falling overboard from a steamship in midocean, travelers should not stray too far from the train.” Terry’s Guidebook At Ulan Udi, the capital of the Buryat Autonomous Republic, east of Lake Baikal and our first Siberian destination after leaving Mongolia, we visited an opera house, built in 1968 and although closed in June, as are theaters usually, we were assured it is properly employed and filled for all sorts of entertainment most of the time. The seating is arranged in a circle, modified by the stage,' and the latter is so large it would accommodate the most demanding theatrical and operatic productions. In, this far out-back Siberian outpost no one would have anticipated finding so accomplished a theater, and one of our nostalgic guides reminded me that this building was evidence that the old regime was not all bad. The Buddhist monastery we looked at outside the city of Ulan Udi where the Dalai Lama had visited on several occasions and is ex pected soon again, the structures do not look substantially constructed. There are two unlikely plaster cast, yellow and black, grinning tigers guarding the way to the principal temple. Inside this building is brilliant with painted figures and banners. One monk chaperoned us as we strolled around. The ceiling in places reaches up three floors and perhaps because it was empty of worshippers, in spite of lavish and colorfiil decorations of all sorts, it is subdued in spirit. Several small white stupas are located among the seemingly recently erected and minimal-in-character auxiliary monastery buildings. One of our group asked me what I thought as we walked away. The question stemmed from the foreignness a Westerner feels in the presence of Tibetan Buddhism. I said perhaps for the devotees, here at last is unfettered Buddhist practice possible, the end of a long drawn-out battle with communism. I thought of the Black churches that arose in the South of our nation once the slaves were freed—organizing vehicles for the oppressed and out-cast, a means for self-validation and orientation as they face a precarious future. If the Dalai Lama knows they faithfully exist in Ulan Udi, where you and I don’t exist, there is a present and perhaps a beyond. Buddhism will probably never be a major force in Russia. It is the religion of the orientals, the buryat and Mongolians, living in that part of the world. At Ulan Udi I began to feel disoriented. I had no assimilated understanding of where I was. I seemed “an island castaway” as Robert Louis Stevenson described himself at one point in his Travels with a Donkey. Analyzing this feeling as we went along, I decided it was a consequence of believing I would never be there again. When I have traveled before, I have always felt I should be just where I was and that I would return. There was something about entering Russia from Mongolia that left me hanging. I did not believe I would ever get back to Ulan Udi, possibly because I didn't hear that place calling me. I blame myself, not Ulan Udi.

Can we deal with these situations without becoming bitter and discouraged? There must be a way to make sense of it. We must accept the fact that there will always be times that try us, but we can be comforted that God knows of our frustrations. “When my spirit is faint, thou knowest my way!”, exclaims David in Psalm 142:3. Our Heavenly Father knows the tribulations of humanity, yet through tribulation we grow strong when we have faith that God is in control even when we are not. Life is not an exercise in futility. It is a lesson in faith. When life doesn’t seem to make sense, you can count on God^ Worship Him this week. It all adds up.

The next time you go by Sycamore Park School take time to view the lovely mountain scene, with trees, stream, wildflower field, pond with lily pads, etc. It is located in the main entrance, on the right side, from floor to ceiling, about 30 feet long. I took her over three days to paint the scene. 1 The backdrop Judy painted for United Methodist’s passion play which had been used for a couple of years, also was used at Sycamore Park School as backdrop for a reading program in which kids were in a boat and sang “Row, Row, Your Boat.” Judy is also a substitute teacher for Culpeper County. I understand she studied art in Germany during the period her husband Bob was in the Air Force. While house-sitting recently for daughter Julie Davis in Staunton Judy painted the several mountain ranges viewed from Julie’s house. With all these activites, Judy still finds time to ei\joy babysitting grandsons, Jason, 2 and Joseph, 7, children of Joe and Grace Davis.

The Amissville United Methodist Fall Festival, which was held on Sept. 23 and 24, was a huge success. We would like to thank each and every person, who donated food, time and the variety of items to be sold. We couldn’t have done it without you!!

The last official count showed total proceeds of ; $1,280.41; however, additional funds have been received and have pushed the total well over $1,300. This additional money is from the continued sale of calendars and prints, which are from an original painting by Miss Phoebe Green, done some year ago and depicting the Amissville United Methodist Church as it looked at that time. Many thanks to Miss Phoebe for allowing others to enjoy and benefit from her talents. For questions call Margaret at 937-4672 or Mary at 347-0072. Mr'. McWhirt recently underwent surgery.

Pumpkins: A Tradition By HELEN W. SMITH Extension Agent, Home Economics Do Americans have a penchant for pumpkin? You bet! Over 145,000 tons of the lucious, golden orbs are processed each year in the U.S. (That’s equivalent in weight to 644 Statues of Liberty!) Pumpkin Nutrition Pumpkins are a dark yellow vegetable and a rich source of vitamin A. One cup of pumpking cooked or canned, has 80 calories - one slice or one-sixth of a 9-inch pie has 300 calories. 9 Cooking Pumpkins These recipes can be made with either fresh or canned pumpkin, so you can pull a can from the shelf when in a hurry, or use a pumpkin from your garden or local roadside stand. One 5-pound pumpkin yields 4 1/2 cups cooked, mashed pumpkin. One HOME ECONOMICS 16-ounce can of pumpkin can be substituted for 2 cups of mashed fresh pumpkin. Fresh pumpkin has a lighter color and more water than canned pumpkin, so you may notice a difference as you make substitutions. If you use fresh pumpkin, wash the pumpkin well and cut it cross "UPCOMING AUCTION" LAUQHLIN AUCTIONS ESTATE AUCTION Paul J. Dodson Shenandoah-Frederick County SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 12TH, AT 10:00 A.M.

CANNON Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer In the spirit of health reform and efficient delivery of services, Culpeper Memorial Hospital and its medical staff have formed the Culpeper Physician Hospital Organization, Inc., (PHO) to provide health care services within a managed care framework. The Culpeper PHO is a network of area primary and specialty physicians, allied health professionals and Culpeper Memorial Hospital. Their goal is to provide high quality health (are at reasonable costs to business and industry in our area to contract with managed care providers t6 enable network access for their benefits. “Our PHO can offer employers and their health plans more efficient and comprehensive health services with increased coordination and management of care between physicians, hospitals and other providers,” said Jim Rutkowski, chairman of the PHO. “The PHO physicians and providers are dedicated to managing care locally in our market while simultaneously promoting wellness,” added Dr. Peter Godfrey,, vice chairman. “This perspective helps maintain the health of our community and lowers health care costs to employers and their employees.” i “One of the most beneficial features of our PHO is that patients are guided through our health care network and referred to the most appropriate providers,” explained Rutkowski. Those providers are carefully selected and provide a comprehensive array of services which emphasize utilization management and thus control cost. Quality of care is monitored by the PHO, and utilization reports will be provided to employers. Beginning this month 580 employees of Kloechner Pentaplast of American, Inc., located near Gordonsville will be the initial group of access the Culpeper PHO through a contract with Great West Life and Annuity Insurance Company and the New England Life Insurance Company. “We are agressively pursuing contracts with many other managed care organizations within our service area,” said Maria Bird, marketing manager. “We are positioned to offer an alternative to employers who already contract with managed care organizations or who have traditional insurance products. We are also positioning our PHO to assist employers who may be considering self-insuring their benefit plans.” Besides Rutkowski and Dr. Godfrey, the executive committee of the PHO includes Mark B. Gloudeman, M.D., secretary; and Johnanna Estes, treasurer. Members of the PHO’s elected board are Benjamin E. Allen, M.D., Morton P. Chiles, / M.D., J. Bryon Cook, M.D., Auby Curtis, Clara S. Eden, M.D., William A. Gravely, Peter E. Nielsen, M.D., Oliver R. Price, Charles A. Stein, M.D., and George N. Stergis, M.D. All participants who have a vested interested in the local health care network have a voice in steering the PHO in appropirate directions to serve our community’s needs. As more emphasis is placed on containment of health care costs, the PHO will be able to draw on welldocumented facts showing that CMH and its medical staff are some ol the least costly health care providers in the state. “As employers review where their healthcare dollars are spent, it makes no sense to use more costly facilities for care they could receive locally at significantly lower costs,” said Oliver Price of Rappahannock Electric Cooperative. Data Advantage, Inc., of Louisville, Kentucky, recently published cost data for 1993 that compares charges at all 90 Virginia hospitals for the 50 most frequently encountered diagnoses. Hospitals were listed from highest cost to least costly, and CMH ranked as the third lowest facility. “This factor plus the competitive pricing strategy adopted by the PHO physicians could save employers significant health care dollars,” explained Rutkowski. s I I Eappafjannocfe Jittos gift subscriptions are enjoyed 52 weeks a year.

Free Mulching Materials By DR. DIANE RELF Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Leaves comprise the greatest volume of organic plant wastes in the fall. Remove leaves from lawns to reduce turf problems, but don’t toss them in the landfill. Leaves are an invaluable garden resource - whether whole, shredded or composted. You should have no trouble putting those from your lawn and even your neighbor’s lawn to good use. Chop leaves and lightweight plant wastes by putting them through a power shredder, by running over them with a lawn mower, or by shredding with a string trimmer. To shred with a string trimmer, confine lightweight materials in a large garbage pail. Make sure to wear protective equipment when operating any pow7er tolls. Coarse plant residues, such as com cobs and branches, need to be chopped in a chipper/shredder. Rent or borrow7 one if this is too big an investment. Chop Mulch Ma'terials To Fine Consistency When time and w'eather prohibit plowing or cover cropping in fall, let your garden lie under a mulch of com stalks or shredded leaves from healthy plants. Be aware that a layer of heavy plant material may become matter and keep the soil cold and wet long enough to delay tilling in spring. Chop the materials finely enough to decai’ during the winter. Leaves are great for mulching vegetable gardens during the hot summer months. Save leaves in a pile to use next year’s mulch. During winter, a leaf pile becomes compressed and layers form. In spring, just lift off mats of leaves approximately 3 inches thick to mulch around transplants. Perennials benefit greatly from mulching. During winter, a one-inch layer of chopped plant refuse will help conserve soil moisture, protect root systems from rapid temperature fluctuations, and reduce plant losses caused by the soil heaving up and down. In summer, the mulch conserves soil moisture, keep the root zone cool, and adds nutrientholding organic matter. Mulch Over Potatoes Make Harvest Easy When planting seed potatoes, try November According To The Almanack November’s temperatures according to the Hagerstown Town and Country Almanack should be below average with average precipitation. Weather Watch: Expect fair, i cold days (1,2) with rain, or snow showers (3,4). It should be fair, cool (5-7) with more rain, or snow (8,9). Then, fair but cool (10-14), with more rain (15-17). Again fair, cool (18-20), but snow or rain (21,22). Fair, cold (23-25), followed by more rain or snow and winds (26,27). Look for cloudy, cool conditions (28,29) but more snow or rain (30). Tornado watch: No such activity expected in the area during the month. Full Moon: Occuring on the 19th at 1:57 a.m. EST, it is known by some as the Beaver Moon, by others the Frost Moon. Eclipses: While the total eclipse of the Sun on the 3rd will be visible in our area, you can view the Penumbral Eclipse of the Moon beginning at, 11:26 p.m. EST on the 17th18th.

The potates grow clean above the ground and are a breeze to harvest. Needle-leaf evergreens such as pines naturally shed their interior needles in fall. Rake up the needles and use for mulch. Pine needles are good insulation - full of air space. They insulate the soil and make an ideal winter mulch for perennial flowers, small fruit plants, and acid-loving shrubs and trees. Pine needles prevent alternate freezing and thawing which may heave shallow-rooted plants our of the ground, a problem especially serious on heavy soils. Remove weak or crowded branches of evergreens in the late fall, as a strong framework deters snow damage. The boughs you glean from pruning can first be used for holiday decorations then recycled as winter mulch on perennial beds. One inch of pine needles or shredded leaves spread over strawberry plants makes an ideal overwintering mulch. Small branches laid over the mulch will keep it in place over winter. Wood Chips Great as Year-Round Mulch . Using a chipper, chop spring and summer prunings into wood chips for pathways and under woody ornamentals. Wood chips, as well as pine needles and oak leaves, work great as year-round mulch under acid-loving plants such as azaleas and rhododendrons. Renew mulches under woody ornamentals each fall to give the plant root protection. i Decomposed lawn clippings return valuable nutrients to turf grass and should be left on the lawn whenever possible. Rake up lawn clippings only when the grass has growr unusually tall between mowings.
