Burke Hertz relaxes at home in his living room in Flint Hill as he anticipates retirement. Custody, Abuse Cases Worry Hertz By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock News Staff Writer After a distinguished law career of 47 years, A. Burke Hertz of Flint Hill will be retiring on April 30 from the 20th Judicial District as a judge in the Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court. Judge Hertz has sat on the bench since 1980, when he replaced Judge Moffett, who retired. He started out being the only judge in the 20th District, but “The legislature was kind enough to appoint another one,” he said. Now, Judge Hertz covers mostly Rappahannock and Fauquier County cases, and Judge Jean Clements is based mostly in Loudoun. He attended Georgetown Law and graduated in 1948. After working briefly for a law firm, Judge Hertz decided to open his own law office in Falls Church where he resided. He practiced law there for 24 years and was also the Commissioner of Revenue. He said that he saw Falls Church grow from a small country town, which was a kind of resort area for people from Washington, DC. He grew up there with his family on 18 to 20 acres with horses, a garden, and plenty of fishing. “It was really way out in the country,” he said. And since he always wanted to get back to that country way of life, Judge Hertz and his w'ife Carole, a psy.-chologist, ended up moving to Rappahannock County in the 1970’s. He learned about Rappahannock from his friend Granville Eastham, who quail hunted with him, and sold him the land for his house. Another attnaction was the ski area in Harris Hollow, as Judge Hertz was an avid skier at the time. After commuting for a time from Rappahannock to Falls Church for his law practice, Judge Hertz moved his office into the Rappahannock Medical Center building in Washington. His wife Carole also moved her practice into there, and now works out of the Fauquier Counselling Center in Warrenton. Before being appointed a judge in 1980, Judge Hertz’s law practice consisted mostly of domestic relations and real estate work. As a Juvenile and Domestic Relations court judge, his cases may have to do w ith custody of children in a divorce matter (divorces themselves are handled in Circuit Court), juvenile delinquency , spousal abuse, or other problems related to family or juveniles (under the age of 18). A new Family Court is proposed to replace Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court next year. It would handle all aspects of divorce, instead of the divorce decree being done in a separate court. Judge Hertz, said that the bar associations in the state support such a court. Judge Hertz said that a surprising number of cases in his court involve assault and battery between family members — fathers and daughters, brothers and sisters, and husbands and wives. Many times, he said, it is a case of the woman hitting the man. 1 le said that about 80 percent of the assault and battery cases are related to indulgence in alcohol. A lot of •these people are directed to counselling, and a lot of them correct their problem in that manner. Some are directed to a Men’s Anger Group, where men go to learn about how to control their anger. At present there is no similar program for women. Judge Hertz believes that custody is one of the most difficult cases. He said that the subject of custody frequently comes as a harsh reality that the children will live with just one of the parents, and often one of the parents moves away. Both parents are investigated before custody is awarded, and often a guardian ad litem, an attorney whose job it is to look out for the child's interests, is appointed. The court also offers extensive mediation services, as some custody cases are very bitterly contested. “Unlike the general district and circuit courts, we try to change the direction of people. The most satisfactory feeling is to know you have changed someone'slife and given them the opportunity they might not have had,” said Judge Hertz. ] Sometimes, he said, the kids are put on probation to give them structure that they do not get at home. "The biggest factor why kids come into court is a luck of parenting, structure. Eventually, they can find it (that structure) in court, unfortunately,” he said. He believes that with so many families with two working parents it is hard to have that structure in the home, “it is a very difficult time,” he added. If the situation warrants it, some juveniles end up being tried as adults in circuit court. Sometimes those who commit v iolent crimes or already have a long criminal records are transferred to the circuit court at the request of the Commonwealth’s Attorney. They must be at least 14 years old. This must be done in order to keep the public safe, said Judge Hertz. One of the biggest problems in the present juvenile system is that most of the detention centers in the state are already full. Judge Hertz said that earlier this week in See Hertz, Page A-6 ' "r v* Mountains, Roads Concern Planners Committee Disbanded By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Mens Staff Writer Ridgetop development, roads and the future of the agricultural advisory committee generated much passion at the Planning Commission meeting last Wednesday, a meeting where most of the time was taken up w ith going over the second draft of the first four chapters of the new Comprehensive Plan. The meeting began with the reelection of Mike Massie, who represents the Board of Supervisors on the Planning Commission, as chairman and the reelection of Sharon Pierce, who represents Stonewall-Hawthorn District, as vice-chairman. Follow ing the review of the Comprehensive Plan and approval of the continuation of the special exception for Belle Meade Day Camp, the 'planners took up ridge top development. * Hampton District representative Susan Babcock had prov ided the planners with copies of restrictions on ridge top development under ’ consideration in Albemarle County. "I'd like to see us spend time on what we can do to protect our mountains, being creative, considering what's legal and what tools there are," she said. She had also provided copies of a studv on tools for planning available in Virginia. That study was prepared by the Piedmont Environmental Council. I Werner Krehser, who represents Wakefield District, noted that Albemarle County has three-acre zoning for building on mountainsides, while Rappahannock has 25-acre zoning. County Administrator John McCarthy said Albemarle County was considering the regulations both for aesthetics and for erosion control, but has not taken any action. He said Albemarle was considering controlling mountaintop development with the special use permit process, "something we don't do." He said no one was proposing any restrictions that would say someone could not build on mountain tops. Dr. Krehser noted that the Shenandoah National Park takes up most of the southwest part of the county. “Do we care about what is happening to our mountains?" Ms. Babcock asked. "Yes," most-agreed. “Then can we do something about it?” Ms. Babcock asked. Dr. Krebser said the only possible location for the house he recently built is where it is built. He asked if the planners want to say people can only take good farmland for houses and forbid housing in the mountains. “This ridge top See Planners, Page A-6 County Residents Oppose Treatment Plant in Culpeper f By SHARON KILPATRICK Rvppiihannnock News Staff Writer Several speakers from Rappahannock appeared at a public hearing held by the State Water Control Board in Culpeper last Thursday to consider a sewage discharge permit for a planned unit development called Longlea to be built on 859 acres belonging to the American Security Council near Boston. The development will have up to 1,000 residential units and employ up to 1,150 service workers, Bruce Clark, representing the developers, said the plan is for housing' for those at or nearing retirement age in a village setting w ith a golt course and shopping included. Although speakers from Culpeper were about evenly divided between those who supported granting the permit and those who opposed it, speakers from Rappahannock were overwhelmingly in opposition. The sewage treatment plant could discharge, up to 450,000 gallons of treated water into the Hazel River daily. Sally Mello of Rixeyville and others had nominated the river from its beginning in Rappahannock County in the Shenandoah National Park to its confluence with the Rappahannock River in Culpeper County for Tier 111 status. Environmentalists asked the representatives of the State Water Control Board to consider that application before acting on the request for the sewage discharge permit. They noted that the application for Tier 111 status had been Tiled first. The hearing was held as a result of a letter See Hazel, Page A-6 r: Old Rag Bulletins i Personal Property Taxes I Comm«ssioner of Revenue Beverlv ^ZTn lher°fficewil"« filing oUt Kg&a «afTS "* Wek' ™* *«■«-CSX“,ecifi'* and Xay^tdaTn f0™S "« “ added 675F3^rUSt bC retUrned ^ May 1.

P' ‘ edncsda> Point-to-Point Races Scheduled Saturday By BETSY BRANSCOMB Rappahannock Nt»» Staff Writer Renewed rivalries and rolling mountain views will punctuate the Rappahannock Huht Point-to-Point races this Saturday, with more than enough of both on tap for the annual event. With post time set at noon, a full program of eight timber and flat races are scheduled on the mountainous course. Thornton Hill Farm in Sperryville is considered by spectators and horsemen alike as one of the most picturesque venues on the 18-race spring 'chasing schedule. Railside parking and infield picnic revelers alike are ensured a compelling view of the 3/4-mile, figure-eight course. The owner-rider, ladies’ and foxhunter’s series events over timber are expected to be command performances by those who competed at Casanova last Saturday. In the 2 1/2-mile race for owner-riders over timber, Henry Wood and his Bijg Nado will go for two wins from two starts in two weeks. Winner by default at Casanova, when a loose horse interfered With dead-certain winner Lone Star Lester and Bay Cockburn, Big Nado is a former winning hurdler who was converted to timber just this spring to fill the shoes of Mr. Wood’s recently retired timber star Topeador, who won the Rappahannock race six times in his long career. Second, again by default at Casanova, Fluorite and owner-rider Wiltiam Russell and third-place finisher Courageux with William DuPont are also entered. A joker in the pack could be Chronicle publisher Rob Banner and his Body Music, an experienced jumper who ran in the ’93 Mary land Hunt Cup. Likewise the foxhunter’s series race will feature a septet of familiar faces, fresh from Casanova competition. Winner last week and series champion last year, Bradley Gable and his Roman Tent just nosed out Golden Reveille and Robin Rounseville at Casanova. Third place finisher last Saturday, Could Be Dandy was disqualified for going off course but will make another try at Rappahannock, as will fourth place finisher Leave Me Out, who was moved up to third with Could Be Dandy’s disqualification. It will be a great race — “friendly” wagers are encouraged and some generous odds may be available with such a richly talented field of hunters. “New this year is a one-mile foxhunters’ Hat race, open only to hunters which were regularly foxhunted this season. Although noon is the time for the first race for junior ponies, timed pair races for foxhunters begin at 9:30 a.m. and the gates open at 9 a.m Competitors in this event can try for either fastest time or for time closest to the ideal foxhunting pace. As usual the races will conclude with the hound race, an event unique to the Rappahannock Hunt races. Regular admission is $5. Some choice parking on the hill overlooking the course and in the infield is still available. For more information call 547-2810. * Photo b> Douglas Lees Will Henry Wood on Big Nado, right at last Saturday’s races, win the timber race at the Rappahannock Point-to-Point Saturday? ■1; . ‘ : i

Four Juveniles Charged In Baldwin's Break-in By CINDY MAHAN Kappabannock News Staff Writer Juvenile petitions have been issued for four males in connection with a burglary at Baldwin's Store last month. Three of the boys, two 17 yearolds and a 15 year-old, have Warren County addresses, and the fourth is a 17 year-old from White Post in Frederick County. All four have been charged with breaking and entering, grand larceny (both felonies), and possession or aid ing and abetting in the illegal possession of food stamps (a misdemeanor). In addition, three of the four have also been charged with possession of burglars' tools, which is a felony. The four are due to be in Juvenile and Domestic Relations court Wednesday, March 1 for a detention hearing before Judge Burke Hertz. Commonwealth's Attorney Peter Luke is expected to ask the court to allow him to try two of the boys as adults, as they have prior criminal records.

Wolf Pleased Corridor H Eliminated Rep. Frank Wolf (R-lOth District) praised the decision of the Virginia Commonwealth Transportation Board not to build Corridor H in Virginia. At a meeting last month the board voted unanimously not to build the road, which would have followed Route 55 from Elkins, W.Va. to Interstate 81 near Strasburg. Following that decision Rep. Wolf said, “Today’s decision by the CTB puts an end to Corridor FI in Virginia and an end to the fears of many that their homes, and way of life, would be threatened by the construction of Corridor H.” The estimated cost of completing the Virginia part of the roadway with 14.4 miles of new four-lane road had been as high as $ 1.1 billion. The transportation board also rejected a two-lane proposal called the Improved Roadway Alternative. Rep. Wolf opposed the building of both Corridor H and the IRA. “Corridor FI would have meant the destruction of scores of homes and businesses, but even the Improved Roadway Alternative in Virginia still would have relocated 23 homes and two businesses, increased traffic and congestion...” he said. In public hearings held in Virginia on Corridor H, 83 percent of respondents supported the No Build option, 12 percent supported the fourlane Corridor H, and only 5 percent supported the IRA option.

Library Board's Budget Seeks Extra $1,980 from County By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer The Library Board unanimously adopted a budget for the corning year that provides 5 percent raises to employees and adds eight hours to the library aide’s position but only calls for an additional 51,980 from the county, 3,9 percent. The board's executive committee, made up of the board’s officers, had previewed the budget before bringing it to the full board last Thursday. The total library budget would increase 7.4 percent from 584,300 to 590,500. The largest increase is in state aid, up 54,415 from the current year according to the best estimate head librarian Patti Holmes could get from Richmond. The budget amendments Gov. George Allen proposed would have frozen state aid to public libraries, but the General Assembly reinstated the increases originally scheduled to take place during the coming fiscal year. Up to 25 percent of state aid can be used for salaries. The rest is for books. Income from the endowment fund is projected to increase by 5500. “This.shows we are getting funding from other places, and not depending solely on the county,” board president Roberta Anderson said. Mrs. Holmes said she was asking for the additional hours so there would always be a staff person able to help out at the desk. Library volunteers are not always able to take care of reference questions, she said. Also since most work only one morning or afternoon a week, they sometimes need help with inter-library loans. New member Joy Sloane objected to the policy of having a staff person always working with volunteers, saying it could make the volunteers “feel useless.’’ Member John Hartline, who works as a volunteer at the library desk, said in the afternoons the library can become so busy one volunteer can’t keep up with all that is needed at the desk. Mrs. Anderson said she hopes the extra hours will eventually mean the library is open more on weekends. A separate vote on the salary line item passed 6 to 0 with Mrs. Sloane abstaining’. Vice chairman Frank Warner made the motion to approve the salary line item, noting it had the support of the library director and executive committee. Other line items in the budget produced little debate. Mrs. Holmes said most were based on doubling income or expenses from the first six months of this year. Mrs. Jamieson said she would develop an index to the board's policies. Last Tuesday Mrs. Jamieson and the board hosted a dessert for former members William Young and Grace Sims. “The library has always been blessed in having exceptionally quali AIM HIGH: Knowledge, Leadership & Character I “America s only fo-ed boarding school with Air Force Junior ROTC" • Small class sizes / college prep curriculum • Non-military Middle School in structured environment • Extended day program for grades six and above • Up to 26 hours of transferable college credit • Flight training program in school-owned aircraft • Full athletic, band, and fine arts programs • Computer training for all grades Randolph-Macon Academy Upper School 9-12 & PG ♦ Middle School 6-8 Front Royal, Virginia 22630 / Phone: (800) 272-1172 SPECIAL BINGO Front Royal Moose Lodge 55 East, 231 Chester St, Front Royal, VA 22630 Benefit of Warren County Chapter American Red Cross Saturday, March 4 Game Begins at 7 pm, doors open at 5 pm In case of bad weather, call 635-2333 or 636-6355 Paid ad by the American Red Cross fied people to step in and captain each of its development stages, starting with Mrs. Eric Severeid’s selfappointed mission to install the Dewey decimal system in our then haphazard book collection.” Mrs. Jamieson said. “Now some 30 years later, we honor Grace and Bill for being just the right, vastly qualified people to have guided our library’s most recent impressive expansion.” Mrs. Jamieson noted that Mrs. Sims had served as the library’s “first certified librarian” as well as a member of the board. “Grace was great with all kinds of emergencies, she just stepped in and did what was needed,” Mrs. Jamieson said. Dr. Young, as chairman, “had the ability to be an effective liaison with our county government and our Virginia State Library systetn...to increase our local and state funding and to obtain grants so sorely needed for the expansion of the library’s services and building program,” she said.

Two books are available so far. The first, written by the Warrenton publisher ot the series, Walter Nicklin, is on the Rappahannock River. The books, compact enough to put in a pockelbook or jacket pocket are stulfed with information. The Rappahannock River includes everything from the history of the river to the best methods for catching rockfish. A second book in the series is Virginia's Civil War Battlefields by Peter Lockwood, a retired British military officer currently living in Front Royal. Mr. Lockwood came to the United States in 1992. Since his retirement he has been creating Civil War Maps. The book contains maps as well as other information on the battlefields. The sheer density of militaryoperations in Virginia during the Civil War is extraordinarily- complicated for the tourist or student of history who wishes to travel through Virginia's historic battlefields. Mr. Lockwood's book, only 69 pages long, gives the reader interesting history, complete with vignettes on various generals, maps, directions, and chronological information. In short, it allows the individual with limited time and unlimited curiosity to soak it all in quickly and efficiently. “This book groans with information,” Mr. Lockwood said. He hatched the plan for the book after meeting Mr. Nicklin at a Civil War Society meeting last year. “These are in depth little books,” Mr. Nicklin said. “They will tell tourists or anyone who is interested where to go. how to get there and what went on there. They are handy for trips and to keep on your bookshelves.” He is at work on a third book in the series, one on Virginia’s haunted houses. “There is really no end to the ideas for these books,” he said.

Bureau WEDNESDAY, MARCH 1, 1995 Editorial General Assembly Adjourns Members of the General Assembly have left Richmond. They will return in April to decide what action to take on bills the governor vetoes or amends. The state’s budget for the coming year is fairly similar to what it was when last year’s session finished work on the two-year budget. Among other things this means that the Extension Service is : required to cut $780,000. The county lost the services of an Agriculture Agent last year for several months with a much smaller cut than that. Time will tell what the current cut will mean locally. The bill requiring counties to accept sludge in agricultural zones ; was withdrawn. The bill requiring the county to accept mobile I homes in agricultural zones survived. These bills called LULUs (locally unwanted land uses) by the Piedmont Environmental Council demonstrate the declining influence of rural localities in state politics. A welfare reform bill was adopted. Time will tell what affect it *- has. But if it achieves any of the goals of helping people move from the welfare rolls to productive employment, if will be amazing considering the partisan bickering and last minute compromises that produced it. The assembly adopted a bill which takes away from local judges discretion in approving permits-for carrying concealed weapons. Formerly an applicant had to convince a judge he had a need to carry a'concealed weapon. Apparently some judges were impossible to convince. Presumably this has no effect on laws barring weapons from school buildings and property. However, it means citizens and lawenforcement officers probably should assume people in cars and walking along the public roads are armed. Anyone who is not a convicted felon, a citizen of another country, or someone who has been judged mentally incompetent can get a permit to carry a weapon. This is not a comforting thought. Bills were passed putting car dealers in charge of regulating car dealers, granting immunity from prosecution to companies that report their own environmental violations, requiring sprinkler systems in hospitals, authorizing $96 million in bonds for prison construction, and allowing the sale of bottled mixed drinks, formerly only sold in ABC stores, in any store that sells beer and w ine. For now, citizens of the county can switch their focus from wondering what the state government in Richmond is doing to them to wondering w'hat the national government in Washington, D.C. is doing to them. In the meantime most organizations that are a part of county government arc developing budgets for the coming year. Actions in Richmond and Washington, D.C. have a heavy impact on these local budgets. "No* the for end feefhers ere settled down et the eep-ee-toh we can jit on book to brets fades here et home."

Letters to the Editor Citizens Rejected Allen Budget To the Editor: When a magician wants to fool an audience, he distracts attention from what his left hand is doing by waving his right hand. For a number of weeks I ha\e been wondering what sort of handwaving the Republicans would use to distract attention from the complete and total repudiation of Gov. Allen’s legislative agenda by the General Assembly. In last week's edition of the Rappahannock News the answer became clear. The Democrats had planned to destroy this agenda all along. The\ even asked help from a consultant. Sorry folks, but that isn’t what happened. What did happen was that Allen’s agenda was rejected by the people of Virginia before it was defeated by the General Assembly. Virginians took a look at what Allen proposed to cut (like spending on higher education, meals on wheels for the elderly, extension agents in rural areas) and what it would save them (S33 a sear per family) and decided that it just didn't make sense. Legislators recognized this fact and voted accordingly. This rejection was broad based and took many forms. Letters to members of the General Assembly ran ten to one against the proposed cuts in services. Led by Republicans like Til Hazel, business leaders across the state mobilized against cuts to education. Former Governors Mills Godwin. Gerry Baliles, and Linwood Holton issued an unprecedented joint statement against these cuts. Ordinary citizens were asking if it made sense to spend more for jails at the expense of education instead of the other way around. There was no way that any consultant could have come up with a scenario like what happened. In a sense Gov. Allen was a prisoner of his own rhetoric. In campaigning against big government, he failed to recognize that Gov. Wilder had instituted a major restructuring and cutting of Virginia’s state agencies. Remember that under Gov. Wilder, Virginia was chosen the best run state for two years by a major financial magazine. There was no real fat left for Gov. Allen to cut. Gov. Wilder had already cut that. All that was left for Gov. Allen to cut were popular and useful government services. And the people of Virginia overwhelmingly said not to cut them. As far as taxes go, many Virginians recognized that they pay less state and local taxes per capita than do residents of 44 out of SO states. They didn’t see a great state and local tax burden to warrant these cuts. When Republicans in the House of Delegates were given the opportunity of voting on Gov. Allen's budget, not one Republican voted for it, not one! Ten voted against that budget, and 37 abstained. No one voted for it. For Republicans to then claim that Gov.. Allen’s agenda was defeated by Democratic machinations is cynical handwaving, and insults the intelligence of Virginians. Gov. Allen’s agenda was defeated because it was a bad agenda, designed more for the governor’s ambitions to be a vicepresidential candidate than for the good of Virginians. It received the repudiation it deserved. We all should be thankful for that repudiation since we all had a part in it. In the months to come, it would be useful to remember who it was that stood for the needs of Virginians. The Republicans will surely resort to more handwaving. The Democrats will continue to work for Virginians. J. KENT REEVE Washington Videos Used Judiciously To the Editor: Since my article “A Mother Searches for the ‘Right School’” appeared on Jan. 25, I have become more familiar with Rappahannock Elementary' School through volunteering and talking with staff members. 1 have discovered that the teachers are more judicious in their use of videos than 1 had perceived in my first visits. In my article, I mentioned that I had seen four classrooms with TVs playing. 1 didn’t realize that these were all kindergarten classes watching the same 15-minute program on reading skills. The program is coordinated by the school librarian, as are all audio-visual programs shown at the school. The librarian, Aney Massie, says she ensures that no teacher uses TV to simply occupy children’s time — except in extraordinary circumstances, such as the teacher whom I found showing a Disney movie on the day that she was packing her classroom to move to the new wing. In fairness to that first-grade teacher (whom 1 purposely did not name), 1 did see her present a solid reading lesson after the movie. A parent-volunteer told me that she had requested this particular teacher for her child, because this teacher sets high standards and sees that the stu dents reach them. My apologies for unfairly tarnishing anyone with the snapshots I presented of my school visits. BONNIE PRICE LOFTON Laurel Mills' Movies Coming To the Editor: • We at RAAC are excited about the movies which return to the Theatre at Washington this Friday, March 3. March is the month of the Irish, with another film on March 17. Films will continue once a month through July. It has been announced that a six admission ticket is available for $25, a savings over the $5 single admission price. But it seems there is some confbsion over what that means. Six admissions to any film, means: come once and bring five friends; come alone to each film; bring a friend to three films; (then buy another for three more), and so forth. These tickets expire at the end of July, but even if you don’t use them all, you are making a contribution towards bringing films back to the county. If successful, we will continue in the summer and fall. BILL YOUNG For RAAC Buck and Millie Ponder State Politics By BRUCE SLOANE Rappahannock News Contributing Writer It uas far from dull in Richmond as Virginia lawmakers met in what was supposed to be an attempt to improve the lot of the citizens of the Commonwealth. And back home all over the state citizens have been scratching their heads at the events in Richmond as they attempt to understand just what is being improved. l et's look in on a typical couple as they discuss recent news. "Buck, 1 don’t see why those Republicans are so mad at Senator Warner. They blame him for everything! I heard one politician say that if Warner had supported all the candidates last November, there would never have been that horrible earthquake in Japan!” "No, Mildred, that was a landslide, not an earthquake,” said Buck. “They said if Warner had supported Ollie North the election would have been a landslide. But maybe all the fighting among the Republicans is as bad as an earthquake." “But how can Ollie North blame Senator Warner for losing the election'.’ Ollie had the best campaign money could buy. With all the money Ollie spent it shouldn’t make any difference whether Warner voted for him.” “He has to blame somebody, Milly, and it’s easier for North to blame Warner than to blame himself. After all, North has never accepted blame for anything.” “Both Farris and Miller also blame Warner for the election. How can they do that? Of course, Miller looks cute with that bare head — sort of like you, Buck.” “Thanks, Mildred. That is a point in his favor. Well, Warner kn *ws how to get elected and none of those others do. I guess they’re just jealous because Warner wins his elecTons and they don’t.” “Maybe you’re right. You’d think they would learn something from that.” “Don’t count on it, Milly. Many politicians never It am and others think they get special messages from abov% “1 see that the General Assembly refused to go along with Governor Allen’s budget cuts. No matter what he wanted to cut, it was somebody’s favorite program.” “They couldn’t even agree on mandatory sex education. But they finally decided to keep it. I guess even politicians agree that sex is here to stay.” “Many politicians in both Washington and Richmond would certainly agree to that" “Yes, Milly. But the governor didn’t want to cut everything. He wants to build lots of prisons.” “Maybe all the inmates can do the work state employees do now, Buck. That will certainly save money.” “Mildred, some state employees already feel like the governor treats them like convicts.” “The cities and counties were complaining that everything the Male pays for now would have to be paid for locally. Wouldn't that increase local property taxes. Buck?” “Yes, Mildred. The governor’s plan was to have leu and leu stale taxes and services. That way we’ll have to pay more and more local taxes. I guess the governor figures we’ll be mad at the local politicians instead of him. It’s the trickle down theory.” “Oh, I thought it was the governor’s Contract with Virginia.” “Milly, you’re confusing Virginia with Washington.” “If the governor is so much in favor of local control, why did he want the state to spend so much on Disney and build so many prisons? Is that local control?” “I don’t think so. But maybe it’s local control if he builds a prison in every county. That way each county cm control its local inmates.” “Does the budget include money for spittoons in the state house? After all, the governor chews tobacco so he’s entitled to maintain local control in that ana.” “I think that anybody who chews tobacco should maintain local control, Mildred. Originally the bill required all counties to maintain spittoons in their courthouses. But the General Assembly voted it down because it wan another unfunded local mandate.” “But Buck, perhaps spittoons aren’t such a bad idea. At least Spittoons would cost us less in income taxes than Disney or prisons. Any maybe you can use them later for sludge”

Coach Baltimore, right, puts his arm around Paul Brown after the season-ending loss to Central. Winter Sports Seasons End, Spring Sports Open Practice By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock \ch* Staff Writer The high school winter sports season came to an end last Tuesday, when the boys' varsity basketball team lost in a blow- out to Central in the first round of the Bull Run District Tournament. Central prevailed 80 to 53. They scored many three-pointers and out rebounded the Panther squad. Rappahannock trailed 14 to 10 at the end of the first quarter, and Central never subsequently had serious trouble. They took a 34 to 25 lead into the half, and increased the lead to 61 to 33 at the end of the third quarter. Willie Eastham led in rebounds, while Jason Settle led in points with 10 and Andre Fletcher had 9. Jeff' Atkins, up from the JV squad, got into the game in the final minute and scored two three pointers and a foul shot. The team came into the tournament ranked seventh in the nine-team district with a record of six wins and ,15 losses overall, four wins and 12 losses in district play. They played Central almost even in a game at Central near the end of the season, and Coach Baltimore felt his team had a chance if they could handle the pressure and make good decisions. He was disappointed with the effort the team put in the tournament game. The junior varsity boys’ basketball team finished with a record of 10 wins and eight losses overall, eight and eight in district play. It ended ranked in the middle of the district, but only the top two teams advance in JV. The volleyball teams finished their play without advancing to tournaments. The varsity ended with four wins and 16 losses overall, three and 13 in district play. The JV ended with six wins and 10 losses. Varsity Coach Laura Conklin said, “I think we had a pretty good season overall. 1 saw a lot of improvement. There were times I saw them play that I feel we could have beat "anyone in the district.” She anticipates continued improvement for next year with sev McNear Makes Fall Dean's List Susannah J.

KILPATRICK A couple of months ago I wrote a column about sentences I did not exactly understand. Several inspired readers sent in further Horrid Examples of the obfuscation art. This story comes from The Arizona Daily Star in Tucson. It appears that Guadalupe-S. Olivas, as health administrator of Pima County, irritated her staff by constantly going to conferences. They complained. She sent back a defensive memo: “Based on! my nationally recognized expertise in contemporary leadership roles, I have conveyed to you such concepts like the ‘service management' and the inverted pyramid, and ways to view and operationalize the concepts that have been articulated, so that we can indeed 'walk our talk.”' 1 more or less understand what it means to operationalize an articulated concept. I believe it means to put an idea to work, but who knows? It was the Department of Commerce, if I am not mistaken, that sent out instructions last October for answering a survey of foreign transactions. One definition was remarkably lucid: “‘Affiliated foreign group' means (i) the foreign parent, (ii) any foreign person, proceeding up the foreign parent’s ownership chain, which owns more'than 50 per centum of the person below it up to and including that person which is not owned more than 50 per centum by another foreign person, and (iii) any foreign person, proceeding down the ownership chain (s) of each of these members, which is owned more than 50 per centum b\ the person above it" The Journal of Commerce report The luck cf the Irish During the Month of March in Historic Harpers Ferry, WV.

He wanted an agreement on certain trade issues. He said: “If we are not successful in this area as well as the macroeconomics and global areas, we would have to reassess the currency of the framework.” Mr. Kantor’s efforts, alas, were not successful. He is now reassessing the currency of the framework. A few years ago the National Council of Teachers of English awarded its Doublespeak Award to a spokesman for the National Aeronautics and . Space Administration. The gentleman was asked it NASA’s performance had improved with each launch. He helpfully replied: “I think our performance in terms of the liftoff performance and in terms of the orbital performance, we know more about the envelope we are operating under, and we have been pretty accurately staying in that. And so I would say the performance has not by design drastically improved. I think we have been able to characterize the performance more as a function of our launch experience as opposed to it improving as a function of time.” Not all the Horrid Examples come from government agencies. One came from a professor of English at Purdue -who was writing in College English, a publication of this same National Council of Teachers of English: "It is true that some rhetorics have denied their imbrication in ideology, doing so in the name of a disinterested scientism...More recently the discussion of the relation between ideology and rhetoric has taken a new turn. Ideology is here foregrounded and problematized in a way that situates rhetoric within ideology....” The Washington Post asked two “celebrated linguists” to explain why teen-agers sprinkle “like” throughout their conversations. Said the experts: “The grammaticalization of ‘like’ as a quotative complementizer is a natural historical development for the spoken channel, which allows the speaker to retain the vividness of direct speech and thought while retaining the pragmatic force, but not the syntactic complexity, of the indirect mode.” Isn’t that, like, you know, the imbricated conceptualization of a rhetorical ideology? I think so. Copy right 1994 Universal Press Syndicate Dominion _ Water, Inc.

► Hertz From Page A-l juvenile court in Fauquier County, a juvenile had to be brought up to court from the detention center in Bristol, which is on the border of Tennessee in southwest Virginia, because that was the only detention center in which the juvenile could be found a bed. Juveniles are not atlowed to be held at county jails (for more than six hours, so detention centers are in critical need. Judge Hertz said, “It is not only inconvenient but it can be dangerous if the child has committed a serious crime. So far we have been able to come up with some way of handling it, but it is getting to the crisis situation.” Judge Hertz feels that some juveniles may feel they are getting away with something, because they cannot be jailed at their age, but he believes many are reached by what the court does, too. He told of a juvenile who recently came back to court after being on probation, and that child had "changed 1 &0 degrees," said Judge Hertz. His grades were good now, he did volunteer work, and looked and dressed like he felt good about himself. The judge looks forward to spending more time at hisweefc^nd home in Reedville on the Northern Neck, and on his 46-foot yacht which is docked in the U.S. Virgin Islands. His two yellow labrador retrievers, Sam and Casey, go along on the trips to the Northern Neck, but not to the Virgin Islands. Named "Therapy, Flint Hill, Virginia," the yacht has three staterooms, and is fully air-conditioned. When he and his wife Carole are not on the boat, it is out for charter. They pilot the boat all around, discovering tins islands and uninhabited beaches. On a recent trip, they found some petroglyphs on one of the small islands. Local Rappahannock attorneys agree that Judge Hertz has been especially good with the youngsters in his couM. Commonwealth's Attorney Peter Luke said, “He usually takes the time to try to impress upon the juveniles the seriousness of what they may have done and their need to obtain an education, to abide by the Photo Courtesy of Judge Hertz' Judge Hertz anticipates spending more time on his yacht. rules of society and the law, and he impresses upon them that when they are 18 they will be in an adult court. He seems to take an interest in the welfare and best interest of the juvenile.” Attorney Frank Reynolds commented, “It has been a real pleasure practicing in front of Judge Hertz. 1 think he is particularly sensitive to the needs of young people who do not have a functional family at home.” Pat Davis, clerk of the Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court and General District Court, who has worked with Judge Hertz since 1979, said that she has never seen Judge Hertz raise his voice, and she feels that he cares a lot about the kids who come before him. “He has been a joy to work with. He will be missed immensely,” she said. This past weekend the General Assembly approved the nomination of Dudley Payne of Warrenton to replace Judge Hertz on the bench. ► Planners From Page A-I thing is a big bugaboo,” he said. “This is something we should discuss again,” Ms. Pierce said. “You don’t need to get defensive about it.” Tom Junk, Piedmont District representative, said the only way to control mountainside development would be to adopt an overlay district with greater site plan requirements. He suggested greater site plan oversight with commercial property also, saying the new Mobil gas station would look much better with a sloped canopy over the tanks instead of the current flat oqe. Ms. Pierce said, “Right now there is lots of mountain land that is not built on. People may want to build on it. It does affect us. Route 211 between Washington and Sperryville looks real different than it did. There's more than one place. There are several places. It starts feeling busy.” 1 Dr. Krebser said the greatest eyesore is junked autos. Ms. Babcock said people in the communitv are talking to people who own mountaintop land that is not built on and even some that is already built on. "I’m asking us to spend more time on this. It is important,” she said. Mr. Massie asked if the planners want to revive the ridgetop development subcommittee. He asked Dr. Krebser if he would be willing to serve on it again. Dr. Krebser said no, and Mr. Massie appointed Ms. Pierce, Ms. Babcock and Mr. Junk to the subcommittee. "Conte back to us with concrete recommendations and present them for us to vote up or down," Mr. Massie said. “As we've seen this is a sensitive subject.” On roads, Mr. McCarthy noted that the roads plan prepared by a consultant calling for possible six-laning of U.S. 211 and four-laning of U.S. 522, is part of regional planning for No Membership Required f 7“ Time To Think SPRING!

He said that none of the widening projects arc in the state’s plans now. The planners were unhappy with predictions for road use in 2010 included in the plan. They wanted to know' if the numbers came from VDOT Mr. McCarthy said the supervisors will hold a public meeting on the road plan March 6. Mr. Massie said the planners could discuss it after that meeting. Earlier Mr. Massie noted that the Agricultural Advisory Committee, appointed by the Planning Commission a few years ago, had completed its work, updating the study of the relative tax contribution and cost in services of agricultural land, and surveying farmers. “The committee did a good job," he said. “It was set up to give us information for the Comprehensive Plan review. I thank Alex (Sharp) and everyone on the committee for their work, but the Planning Commission should not be appointing a committee to do our work for us. It takes planning two steps from the voters. I also think it’s best for the agricultural community to speak for itself. The Rappahannock Farmers’ Association has done an excellent job of presenting itself to the community. 1 don’t think we should tie the hands of the board by.having a standing committee.” “You’re saying they should disband?” Dr. Krebser asked. “It would keep things more at arms' length when we get a recommendation," Mr. Massie replied. Ms. Pierce said, “1 agree with the concept. There are too many steps. We base appointed subcommittees to deal with issues. I'm uncomfortable with appointed standing committees with a fuzzy mandate." Dr. Krebser asked if the committee could deal with applications for agricultural and foresta! districts. Mr. Massie noted that the committee that considers these applications is appointed by the Board of Supervisors. Mr. Junk said, “I wouldn't be for appointing any kind of committee. That's up to the supervisors." He added the survey of farmers was a "great study.” Dave Tannon, who represents Jackson District, said the committee could stay in business separate from the Planning Commission and advise the planners. Ms. Pierce made the motion to thank the committee for its work and disband it. She said her motion was not to indicate “any problem with their work.” The motion was approved unanimously. ► Hazel From Page A-l writing campaign by those opposing location of the plant on the river. Also as a result of that campaign, lower limits were set for fecal coliform bacteria in the discharge, and the water board required ultraviolet, rather than chlorination and dechlorination, treatment for the effluent. Those changes fn the plant specifications did not satisfy environmentalists who insisted a precious resource could be lost forever if the plant is allowed to discharge into the Hazel River. Tom Faha, regulatory services supervisor of the Department of Environmental Quality, which includes the water board, said granting the sew age discharge permit would not affect the Tier 111 nomination, but most in the audience did not believe that. He tried to reassure the audience that the plant wbuld not lower water quality in the river and said fishing could continue in the river but fishermen should use their own discretion in eating fish caught there. Some people expressed concern also about the traffic the development would generate on U.S. 522 and the effect the. demands for water at the development would have on neighbors who depend on well water. Supporting the sewage permit were Norma Dunwoody of the Culpeper Chamber of Commerce, John Coates of the Culpeper Board of Supervisors, and Culpeper planning director John Egerston. They generally said Culpeper wants to establish a center for growth near Boston and is depending on the Longlea development and its sewage treatment plant to become a center lor that develop ment. Hunt Harris asked the water board representatives to consider Tier III status first. He said allowing the plant to be built in that location would be “irresponsible with respect to all residents of this bio-region, human and non-human.” He read a letter from Sharon Saari of “Hazel Environmental and Legal I Protection” opposing the plant. The f letter notes that rare species of dragonflies, damsel flies and mussels are found in and along the river. It notes that four other discharge permits are proposed for the Rappahannock River system above Fredericksburg and calls on the DEQ to “stop this piecemeal consideration of projects one by one, and consider the ‘bigger picture” of the effects of all these new discharges into a limited water supply.” The letter concludes that the Hazel Environmental and Legal Protection organization will join the Chesapeake Bay Foundation in asking the federal EPA to remove DEQ’s authority to issue discharge permits “unless you start to take into account these issues, and look at the whole system, not just one permit at a time.” Chris Moyles said, “It frankly scares me that we have boards that regulate the amount of pollution we put in our water...All watersheds are intrinsically linked.” Richard Abell said, “1 hope my son and my grandchildren will be able to see where a pristine river commences and follow it to the Rappahannock. There are few unspoiled streams...The land is being gobbled up by development. The Hazel is one of the rare rivers whose freshness and wildness can still be preserved." Janet Kerig said, “It is an abomination that the American SecurityCouncil Foundation would consider ruining a pristine river.” The State Water Control Board will take action on the permit later this month. WCDA Students Visit Richmond Last week a score of Wakefield Day School history and political science students spent Monday in Richmond visiting with Del. Jay Kat/eh. R-3lst District. The students were eager to see first hand the legislative process which they have been studying in their classes. The students were alj^ to speak briefly with Del. Kat/en before proceeding to the chamber’s gallery to view the House of Delegates in action. Hveryone was impressed with the complex and wide-ranging debate raging on the floor of the chamber. There was even a Wakefield Country Day School graduate on the assembly staff, who took time out from his busy schedule to meet with his alma matter. When the students left, they took away a much greater appreciation of the debate process and of the spirit of our state government at work. The group topped off the afternoon with a tour of the capitol designed by Thomas Jefferson.

• Community News • Obituaries Rappahannock News • Real Estate • Classifieds WEDNESDAY, MARCH 1 ,1995 Dennis Store Has Changed with the County Videos Replace I Livestock Feed By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock News Staff Writer Dennis Store in Scrabble is a tiny building at the junction of routes 626 and 680. It is a family run business, begun by Clifford R. Dennis 70 years ago. His son Robert Dennis, Sr. and his wife Doris have run the store half of \If fwasn 7 here in the store I was in the fields, or taking care of the cows, horses, pigs and chickens. ’ - Robert Dennis that time, since 1960. Robert Dennis is a native of Rappahannock County, and his wife was raised in Culpeper. Mr. Dennis said that back in the days when his father ran the store, a part of the store was designated “The Ware Room,” where locals could purchase hog food, chicken food and other farm supplies. People brought in chickens and eggs to trade for other goods. Mr. Dennis said, “If I wasn’t here in the store I was in the fields, or taking care of the cows, horses, pigs and chickens.” There also used to be a chicken house on the back of the store, but that area is now for storage. The store is more modernized now, with 120 videos for rent for $2 a night, a kerosene heater instead of a woodstove, and a large selection of soda pop instead of just Coca-Cola and Nehi. Besides antique advertising signs on the walls, there-is a digital wrap-around sign which says “Welcome to Dennis Store where people babble at Scrabble.” Mr. Dennis said that he can program the sign to say anything he wants. Proudly displayed is a painting of the store by local artist Maggi Morris, who lives right down the street with her husband Andy and son Eston. She said that she feels like part of the family when she goes in Dennis Store, and that, like parents, the Dennises are always concerned about what is going on in her life. Also, if she needs an item which is not on the shelf in the store, the Dennises will order it for her. An antique glass case houses the candy selection, and the store has two cash registers. Mr. Dennis’s favorite is the antique one, which he thinks is actually older than the store. At the other end of the counter is a modern cash register, purchased just last year! Mr. Dennis also drives a school bus for Rappahannock County, and comes in to take over the store duties from his wife when he finishes his day on the road. He said that it is surprising how many tourists stop by the store. Some stop by who have gotten lost too, something that Rappahannock residents know can easily happen in the Castleton area. The store offers a selection of microwave sandwiches and a coffee machine for visitors who would like to stay awhile, and the front porch offers an inviting view of the countryside. Dennis Store is open from 7 a.m. to .7 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sundays. Dennis Store at Scrabble now promotes its videos. Reston To Discuss Galileo at Library By DIANA BIRD Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Galileo, James Reston Jr.’s ' biography of Galileo Galilei ' 1564-1642) seems to document when modern times began — when Galileo’s first looking through a telescope at the moon may have been the initial act antic„ ipating other men arriving upon it. Galileo devoted his life to sci; entific investigations as a mathe;I-matician, astronomer and physi-‘•cist, but Mr..Reston’s biography does not explicate his professional achievements. The biography, rather, takes us into the times and places of Galileo’s work: Pisa, Padua, Venice, Florence and Rome, showing us the relationship of science and a Renaissance life to pol• itics, religion and society in gener1>Z The many issues Galileo’s -^career raised prove as interesting I^as any novel or mystery story. The • role of science in war, status or prestige, its relationships to secrecy and self-agg’randizement all appear. Galileo was tried by the • Inquisition for heresy in 1633 when he was 70 years old. His fame and political support spared him execution but not condemnation. In 1992 the Vatican decided that a mistake had been made in the Inquisition’s judgment, which decision Mr. Reston consider^ grudging. This event may have been the inspiration for Mr. Reston’s compelling book, but the story he tells would be intellectually stirring whenever it was published. The issues of religion’s truth and the state’s role in it, and the politics of science are as alive and well today as thev were in 1633. Mr. Reston will discuss his work at the Library at 8 p.m. on Friday, March 10. 1 James Reston Jr. n ■ J n l Rappahannock News Staff Photos/Cindy Mahan Dorris and Robert Dennis are welcoming to customers and lost visitors. They have been running the store since 1960. Cristofori Trio Returning to Theatre For people who missed the February concert by The Cristofori Trio at the Theatre at Washington and for the large audience at that concert, there is another opportunity to hear the trio’s spirited playing of works by Mozart this Sunday, March 5 at 3:30 p.m. All six of the trios which Mozart wrote for piano, violin and cello are played during the course of the two concerts. The Cristofori Trio is part of the Washington Cristofori Ensemble which was formed in 1994 by Martin Berkofsky, its artistic director, and is resident at The Theatre at Washington. The members of the trio are Martin Berkofsky, piano, Judith Spokes, violin and Kang Xia, violoncello. The all-Mozart program on March 5 includes the trio in B flat, K. 254, the trio in G, K. 496 and the trio in G, K. 564. Mozart was occasionally asked to improvise on the piano in front of his audience, and this he did w'ith great gusto. The Cristofori Trio will revisit this tradition, and add to it a unique twist. At the conclusion of the last work to be played in the program, Berkofsky will improvise a cadenza on the piano. The audience will have been invited earlier in the concert to join this impromptu, music-making by voting on whether Berkofsky should improvise in the style of baroque, classical, or of 19th century romantic music which is his speciality.” Martin Berkofsky is well known as a piano soloist. He has performed at the Marlboro Festival and was cofounder of the Long Island Chamber Ensemble. He currently resides in Fauquier County. Judith Spokes and Kang Xia, who moved to this country from China in 1989, are professionally based in New York and are in this area especially to establish The Cristofori Trio and to perform the two Mozart concerts at the Theatre. “Chinese Music and the influence of the West" is the subject of a talk to be given at 3 p.m. by Spokes and Xia prior to the concert. Xia is a graduate of the Shanghai Competition. Xia and Spokes gave the 1992 premiere o.f new Chinese works at Carnegie Weill Recital Hall in New York. Tickets for the concert on Sunday, March 5 are SI 3.50 with advance reservation, $15 at the door. Children are half price. To make reservations or for more information about these or other programs at the Theatre at Washington, phone 675-1253.

Churchwomen Plan for Fall Quality, quantity and color of flowers were the subjects for the first meeting of the flower arrangers and growers who are members of the Episcopal Churchwomen of Bromfield Parish, Trinity Church, Washington. They met to plan the 39th Annual Rappahannock County House Tour and Dried Flower Sale, scheduled, as always, for the third weekend in October. Starting with selecting varieties of flowers to be grown from seeds, planning and working toward the event will cover the next nine months, and involve many people in the Rappahannock County area. For the Dried Flower Sale itself volunteers will be growing, gathering, drying, arranging, pricing and selling flowers. For the House Tour there are jobs for hostesses in the houses and car parkers outside. This annual fall event brings many visitors to the county.

Completing the work, the frame surrounds it, transforming it from eye-pleasing to eyecatching...from scenic to sublime. A mood is set, warmth is enhanced, or perhaps the entire scene becomes I more connected by that one “per~r feet” halo. The “Spangled Heav’ns” provides the ethereal surroundings that we connect with God, though He needs no frame. Yet, when the spirit of the Creator surrounds us, our entire being is at peace and others are moved by the warmth of our demeanor. Worship each week in God's holy presence. As you depart, you will be surrounded by a halo of serenity. Framed by the spirit of the Creator, His masterpiece is now complete.

March Is Nutrition Month Time To Eat "Five A Day" By HELEN W. SMITH Retention Agrnt, Home Economics “Discover Nutrition...Anytime, Anywhere” is the theme for*1995. March is Nutrition Month. It is also a good time to evaluate your family’s diet to be sure everyone is eating five servings of fruits and vegetables each day or “Five A Day.” The dietary guidelines established for Americans recommend that we need three to five servings of vegetables and two to four servings of fruit each day. For most of us, we can say that we need at least “Five a day” total servings of fruits and vegetables for good health. This emphasis on fruits and vegetables is being done because evidence shows that the nutrients and fiber in fruits and vegetables may help reduce our risk for heart diseases and cancer. Thirty-five percent of all cancer deaths can be attributed to the typical American diet which is too high in fats and too low in fiber. So it makes sense that we should do something to help ourselves by adjusting our meals to include more fruits and vegetables Cor good health through our eating habits. The federal government has approved three health claims dealing with cancer prevention: a low fat diet may reduce your risk for cancer; high fiber foods may reduce your risk for cancer; fruits and vegetables may reduce your risk for cancer. You can expect to see these health claims on food packages. Five Tips For “Five A Day” 1. Eat five servings of fruits and vegetables every day. 2. Eat at least one vitamin A rich food every day — like tomato, tangerine, winter squash, apricots, cantaloupe, peaches,.sweet potatoes, car rots, and greens. 3. Eat at least one vitamin C rich fruit or vegetable such as kiwi, orange, broccoli, cabbage, asparagus, green peppers, strawberries. 4. Eat at least one high fiber fruit or vegetable every day such as oranges, broccoli, beans. 5. Eat vegetables from the cab HOME ECONOMICS bage family several times a week — cabbage, brussels sprouts, cauli-, flower, broccoli. Get in the habit of preparing fruits and vegetables with little added fat — like bacon drippings, ham, butter, salad dressings — salt, or added sugar. On that next baked potatoes try a lot-fat ranch dressing rather than butter and sour cream. Tips To Increase Fiber With Fruits And Vegetables 1. Eat fresh fruits or stewed fruit (like prunes) instead of drinking fruit juice. 2. Eat vegetables and fruits with their peels or skins — apples, peaches, potatoes, zucchini, cucumber — and with seeds like berries. 3. Add cooked or canned dry Waylands Have Houseguests Mr. and Mrs. Glen August and children, Jessanma and Kocla of Japan are spending some time her with Mrs. Augusts parents, Mr. and Mrs. Larry Wavland.
