Sawmill, Kite Festival Win Planners Nod By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer The Planning Commission recommended approval of a custom sawmill in Old Hollow and the Ben Venue Kite Festival before moving to a discussion of the fifth chapter of the Comprehensive plan and a discussion of what is the next step following the public hearing on roads. Tom Taylor had applied for a special use permit to operate a custom sawmill on a 35.8-acre parcel he owns off Route 612. At last Wednesday’s meeting he said he would be using a portable sawmill with a capacity of 1,000 board feet a day with one operator or 1,500 feet a day with two people working. His brother Bill Taylor said he now sells logs out of the county and would be supplying most of the lumber for the sawmill. John McCarthy noted Mr. Taylor’s application requires a special use permit, while a recent one in Huntly for a commercial sawmill required a special exception, because Mr. Taylor’s is a smaller operation, with no more than five employees. Mr. Taylor said his sawmill runs off an electric motor, which is quieter and less polluting. He said his would be a small operation, more like a hobby. Stonewall-Hawthorn District representative Sharon Pierce expressed concern about logging trucks using the narrow road. County Administrator John McCarthy said if the planners are concerned abotit the intensity of the use, they could limit the hours of operation or the size of the building the mill is in. Hampton District representative Susan Babcock asked if they could reconsider the application if traffic becomes a problem. Chairman Mike Massie said the ordinance uses the number of employees for making the distinction between custom and commercial sawmills, and if members want another way to control such opera tions, they should deal with the ordinance rather than Mr. Taylor’s application. Wakefield District representative Werner Krebser said a sawmill supports the county’s agricultural industry. “I don’t understand the argument about all these trucks," he said. ”We should support the efforts of people who are making use of the resources of the county. We shouldn’t stymie them.” Piedmont District representative Tom Junk made the motion to recommend approval, which passed unanimously. Heidi Eastham applied for a special exception to hold an annual kite festival at Ben Venue. Mr. McCarthy said the use came under the recently adopted regulations for field parties. Such parties don’t require special exceptions if they are held,no more frequently than once in three years, See Planners, Page A-6 Wood Drops Out, Scheer Joins Race Katzen Still Optimistic By SANDY HUMF. Rappahannock News Staff Writer Only eight weeks after kicking off his campaign, former delegate Jerry' Wood has abandoned his bid to recapture the 31st District House of Delegates seat. Mr. Wood’s withdrawal leaves Sue Scheer, the former Cedar Run planning commissioner who announced her candidacy Monday night, without a challenger for the Democratic nomination. Though he did not rule out a return to the race as an independent, in an interview Tuesday he described the chance of that as “remote.” Mr. Wood was evasive about his reasons for dropping out, saying that several of the “10 to 12 factors” were personal. He did, however, say that he made his decision after lengthy discussions with “people in the know” about the composition of the 31st District and his chances of ousting incumbent Republican Jay Katzen. “In most cases it wasn’t very encouraging,” he said. “Beating Katzen would be tough. It’s a Republican district and he’s an incumbent. Yeh, people are maybe angry at him and angry at the governor. But will they be angry when November rolls around?” He estimated that Del. Katzen’s odds of winning would be 55-45 percent. “I don’t get in races to lose them," Mr. Wood added: The ability to raise money did not concern him. He already held a fundraiser that raised nearly $6,000, See Scheer, Page A-6 Board Concurs On Budget Cuts By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer The School Board agreed Tuesday night on a budget for the coming school year that cuts $178,-000 from the $6.3 million proposal. It would reduce raises for teachers and teachers’ aides from the 5 percent originally proposed by Superintendent David Gangel to 2 percent. That cut saves $81,700. Other cuts include $33,700 for a grant writer, $10,000 to rebuild the fence around the baseball. Held, $3,000 to rebuild the fence behind the bus garage, $9,500 to install lights in the student parking lot at the high school, $2,000 for plumbing, electric, and heating repair, $1,400 from supplies and equipment, $12,500 for teachers’ aides to ride school buses, and $5,270 to make the library aide position at the high school full time. Another $12,100 will be saved by hiring a licensed practical nurse instead of a registered nurse to serve in the schools. Dr. Gangel said. He said he would try to squeeze this year's budget to get the parking lot lights installed. The board also voted to forgo raises for themselves, saving the school system $98. Together with several other, mostly smaller cuts, these amounted to $93,000. Dr. Gangel said he estimated about $3,300 could be saved because superintendents from the four jurisdictions using George Washington Carver - Piedmont Technical Center have asked that board to cut its budget. The School Board will meet again next Tuesday evening to formally adopt the budget once all the line items have been adjusted to account for decisions made this week. The proposed $6.15 million budget will still require an additional $437,200 in local funds.

For Payne Discusses Future as Juvenile Judge By LOU HATTF.R Rappahannock News Staff W riter For several days, Dudley Payne said, his appointment to the bench of the Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court really hadn’t sunk in. Then, one day Earlier this month he met Circuit Court Judge W. Shore Robertson on the street in Warrenton, and Robertson said in greeting, “Good morning, judge.” “It really floored me,” Mr. Payne recalled. That simple greeting, from a man he tremcncfously respects, brought home the magnitude of his appointment: Judge Robertson’s greeting joined the gentle kidding and congratulations he’s received from fellow attorneys, friends and acquaintances since his appointment by the General Assembly Feb. 25. Looking back on his career, Mr. Payne views his appointment as “a kind of graduation into a new position where you can practice law in a completely different way.” Rappahannock News Staff Photo Scott Ferrell Future Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court Judge Dudley Payne considers his future responsibilities and juvenile crime. After an intense two-month transition, including wrapping up his law practice and attending what can best be described as judge school, Mr. Payne will begin hearing cases May 1. He succeeds retiring Judge A. Burke Hertz. “There’s no doubt that being a judge is an honor. . . but I don’t think it makes you any smarter, I don't think it makes you any better, 1 don't think it makes you a better lawy er,” he said. Judges are a part of the legal system, “and they’re not a better part, or a worse part, than the lawyers who come before them. They are simply lawyers serving on the bench who wear a robe. It’s all part of a process that is designed to serve the community.” That service, Mr. Payne continued, started when he received his license to practice law in 1973. "I see the judgeship as yet another way to continue doing that.” The same traits that make good lawyers make good judges, according to Mr. Payne. Skili and effort, he said, are what clients expect, and is now what the public expects from him as a judge. “I’m not the smartest guy in the world, but generally speaking 1 wjH outwork you. And 1 hope I can bring those same qualities to the bench,” he said. His professional experience has shaped Mr. Payne — both in the way he practices law and the way he looks at his new duties. He gives his law partners at Walker, Jones great credit for his professional development. “I have been surrounded by superb lawyers in a firm that has contributed two judge-, and a commonwealth's attorney, “And the thing I’m proudest of is that we have done it with an unspoken creed that you will do it ethically, and that you will do the very best you can on behalf of every client. Being a gentleman or a lady in the practice of law in this building is very important, and it always has been. That’s not always true in the legal profession any more.’’ The formative experience in his young legal career, however, was his three years in the Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office. “You see just about everything. One day you’ll be prosecuting a murder case in front of 12 men and women, and the next day you’ll be in traffic court. It kept you humble. “It taught us our way around the courtroom, it taught us who were the key people in the criminal justice system,” Mr. Paynesaid. “When you do that all day, every day, you create in yourself a certain confidence, a certain amount of ability, and if you can’t turn yourself into a good trial lawyer in that environment, you don’t have it in you to start with.” His legal experiences have also taught him the importance of involving the other participants in the court, as well as those who deal with defendants and victims outside the courtroom. He plans to meet with all the agencies with responsibilities in his court: the sheriffs office, juvenile probation, court clerk, commonwealth’s attorney; as well as other agencies like social services that deal with troubled youth, to solicit their ideas.

Sex Abuse Charges Dismissed By KELBY HARTSON Rappahannock News Staff Writer WARRF'NTON — A judge on Tuesday dismissed charges that Little Johnnie Jenkins sexually abused a 6year-old girl three times in February of 1992. The three counts of aggrav ated sexual battery against Mr. Jenkins were dropped in the middle of his jury trial. Mr. Jenkins, 26, of Washington, was indicted by the Fauquier County Grand Jury last year. After assistant commonwealth's attorney Kevin Casey presented his case, Mr. Jenkins’ attorney, Daniel Flynn, made a motion that the charges be dismissed. Mr. Flynn argued that the prosecution’s case relied on a taped confession Mr. Jenkins made to police on Aug. 10, 1994. Citing other criminal cases with similar circumstances, Mr. Flynn told the judge that the Commonwealth must prove that a crime had been committed. Judge Carleton Penn agreed, saying that under Virginia law, a person cannot be convicted on a confession THE FLINT HILL VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT announces an OPEN HOUSEl irtrirtrfrirhrirtrtrk DATE: Saturday, April 1st, 1995 TIME: 3:00 PM - 7:00 PM PLACE: Flint Hill Vol. Fire Dept.

Before the case was dropped, Fauquier County Sheriff’s Office investigator Gar} Healy testified that Jenkins had confessed when Mr. Healy was questioning him regarding the alleged crimes. The taped confession was played in court, in which Mr. Jenkins admitted to every element of the crimes for which he was accused. Mr. Jenkins said on the tape that he was spending the night at a coworker's home near Warrenton in which the alleged victim resided. When the girl walked up to kiss Mr. Jenkins good night, he rubbed the clothing which covered her genitals, according to his confession. He said this occurred over three weekends when he stayed at the home. “I'm really, truly sorry,” Mr. Jenkins said on the tape. “1 just wish I’d have come forward sooner.” During a court hearing in January, Mr. Jenkins said that he only confessed after three and a half hours of questioning by police. “I was shaken up, scared. 1 didn’t know what was going on ... It was getting late. I wanted to go home,” Mr. Jenkins said at the hearing. Judge Penn ruled at the time that “the confession was the product of a rational mind." With the charges now* dropped; Mr. Casey said after the trial that Mr. Jenkins can never be retried for the allegations.

Mare Continues To Win By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock News Staff Writer Dazzlin’ Bonnie, a three yearold paint mare owned and trained by Susan Lee of Sundown Farm in Boston, was named the High Point Combined English/Western Champion for 1994 by the Prince William Horse Association. The young horse has won many other awards, including Champion Grooming/Condition (English); Champion Novice English Pleasure; High Point Western Performance Horse; Champion Grooming/Condition (Western); Reserve Champion Walk/Jog; Champion Western Command; Champion Novice Western Pleasure, and Champion High Point Western Pleasure Horse. Dazzlin’ Bonnie is in foal to a black/white paint horse and is due to foal this April. According to owner Susan Lee, her foal will be for sale, as will others at Sundown Farm. Wetlands Rules Changing The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), formerly the Soil Conservation Service, will begin providing wetlands determinations for agricultural land and send the information to USDA program participants. Lue Waiters, district conservationist for NRCS in Rappahannock, Culpeper, Madison and Orange counties, said until last year, farmers and landowners had to check with more than one agency to determine the presence of wetlands on their property. Mr. Walters noted that in January 1994, NRCS, EPA, Fish and Wildlife Service and the Corps of Engineers agreed that NRCS would have authority to identify wetlands on agricultural land, and the other three agencies would accept the identification. A new definition of wetlands may mean that land previously identified as wetlands no longer meets the definition, he said. While NRCS will be using criteria similar to what they have used since 1989 in agricultural situations, there is now more and better data avail• able to identify wetlands than in the past. This data includes climate records, .hydrology data, and more years of Consolidated Farm Services Agency aerial slides of fields, he said. Any previous wetland determination may not be valid, he said. For further information call 825-4200. Anderson Will Seek New Term Robert Anderson said he will be a candidate for another term on the Board of Supervisors in November’s election. Mr. Anderson said he feels there are things that remain unfinished, and he wants to see them through. He especially mentioned school expansion, and finding a central location for trash disposal. With Mr. Anderson’s announcement, all five members have said they will be candidates for reelection, and no one has announced as a candidate in opposition to any of them.. State Seeks Comments On Planned Curricula By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer The state Board of Education will solicit comments on proposed new standards for mathematics, language arts, science and social studies at a series of meetings scheduled for the rest of March and early April Endorsed by the Governor’s Commission on Champion Schools, these new standards, called Standards of Learning (SOLs), were developed by four different school systems around the state. The Newport News system developed the standards for social studies. Language arts standards were developed by Virginia Beach schools, and Fairfax schools developed the new standards for mathematics. Prince William schools developed the new standards in science. „ “This is an effort to lift expectations,” said William C. Bosher Jr, Superintendent of Public Instruction. “It’s a tremendous undertaking with significant consequences for the young people of Virginia. The two closest of the meetings on these new standards are at Falls Church High School on March 29 and Loudoun County High School in Leesburg on April 6. Both meetings start at 7 p m. Those who wish to speak must sign up. The sign-up period begins at 6:30 p.m. If the SOLs are approved in their current form all students will be required to take Algebra I. Currently algebra is not required for students earning the regular high school diploma. A further class in Computer Mathematics will be offered. For mathematics from kindergarten through eighth grade, the SOLs list standards in “Numbers and Number Sense,” “Computation and Estimation,” “Measurement,” “Geometry/’ “Probability and Statistics” and “Patterns, Functions, and Algebra.” For each grade level there are 21 through 26 statements of what students in that grade are expected to be able to do. Under Measurement for seventh-grade students, for example, the standards state “The student, given appropriate dimensions, will estimate and find the area of polygons by subdividing them into rectangles and right triangles.” The proposed standards in social studies have caused the most comment in the press so far. They include requirements from kindergarten through twelfth grade The lower grade requirements that kindergarten students “will identify by name, picture, and deed interesting people in American and world history (e.g., George Washington, Johnny Appleseed, Harriet Tubman, Walt Disney, Mahatma Gandhi)” and that first graders will learn about ancient civilizations in Egypt and the Fertile Crescent have caused the most controversy.

Currently students study American history in fifth, seventh and eleventh grades. They have world history and geography in sixth and ninth grades. Under the proposed new SOLs many of the fifth-grade requirements would be pushed down to fourth grade. Fifth graders would study world history. American history would be a two-year course divided in 1865 and taught in sixth and seventh grades. Eighth grade social studies would require a class in “the role of the citizen in the American political and economic systems.” The purpose of the course is to “foster patriotism, respect for the law, and a sense of civic duty.” Students would study world history and geography again in ninth and tenth grades with the subject split between the grades at the middle of the 15th Century. Currently no social studies courses are required in eighth or tenth grades. In language arts, requirements are provided for oral presentation skills, reading and the study of literature and composition for all grades. §eniors woqld be required to produce a research paper of approximately 2,500 words and give a 15 minute speech. Seventh graders would be required to produce compositions using a computer word processor and spelling and grammar checkers. Science requirements stress safety and hands-on investigations. Most standards begin by stating "The student will investigate and understand...” In third grade, for example, one of ten standards states: “The student will investigate and understand the water cycle and its relationship to life on Earth. Key concepts include: The origin of energy that drives the water cycle, Processes involved in the water cycle (evaporation, condensation, precipitation) and Water supply and water conservation.” Copies of these proposed Standards of Learning have been distributed to the schools and the public library. Secretary Bosher said the hearings around the state are intended to “give citizens an opportunity to comment and make suggestions on the proposals. Following the public hearings the Board of Education will revise the proposals and will adopt final standards for distribution to all public schools in Virginia.” Community Calendar Saturday March 25 • Volleyball Tournament, sponsored by Drug Free Schools Team (987-8575) • Open Theatre, at Ki Theatre - 8 p.m. Sunday March 26 • Open Theatre for families, at Ki Theatre - 4 p.m. Friday March 31 • James Reston Jr., author of Galileo, at the Library - 8 p.m. (675-3780) Saturday April 1 • Blitz Building Weekend, Habitat for Humanity, at Shanks job site - 8 a.m. • Open House at Flint Hill Fire Hall • Spring Mountain School Benefit Auction - I p.m. silent auction, 3 p.m. regular auction 5 p.m. Peggy Schadler and Friends of Gaia in “Persephone and Demeter” (675-1458) • Julie Portman with Paul Reisler in “My Sister’s Sister,” at Ki Theatre - 8 p.m. (675-1616) Sunday April 2 • Blitz Building Weekend, Habitat for Humanity, at Shanks job site • Opening Reception at Middle Street Gallery for “Where We Live,” show of works by Christopher Stephens - 3-6p.m. (675-3440) Friday April 7 • “Murders of 1940, WCDS musical comedy - 8 p.m. Saturday April 8 • Old Dominion Hunt Point-to-Point, at Ben Venue Farm - noon • Chicken Dinner at Chester Gap Fire Hall - 5-8 p.m. (635-5482) • “Murders of 1940, WCDS musical comedy - 8 p.m. Sunday April 9 • Mark Jaster in “The Maestro,” at The Theatre - 2:30p.m. (675-1253) Friday April 14 • “Stories from the Dust in the Comer” with Laurie Marshall, RCHS auditorium - 7:30 p.m. Saturday April 15 • Breakfast with the Easter Bunny - Washington Fire Hall - 7-1 la.m. • “Stories from the Dust in the Comer” with Laurie Marshall, RCHS auditorium - 7:30 p.m. Friday April 21 • “Red,” rated R, RAAC movie at The Theatre - 8p.m. Saturday April 22 • Fodderstack 10K Road Race - 10 a.m. ' • Earth Day Kite Fly, at Ben Venue - noon-5 p.m. (675-3444) • Ensemble Five/One, music from Henry Purcell, at The Theatre - 3p.m.(675-1253) • Miss Rappahannock Pageant, RCHS - 7 p.m. (987-9144) or (987-8303) INTERNET NOW !

Volunteers in the county will be building the first House, of perhaps several, to be built under the auspices of Habitat for Humanity. This organization has been building houses in this country and around the world for a number of years. Its most famous volunteer is former president Jimmy Carter. Most volunteers are little known outside their communities, but they have enabled many people to become homeowners who otherwise would not have been able to. There has been a chapter of Habitat for Humanity in Fauquier County for several years. Woodville’s Bob Darby was involved in that chapter before he moved to Rappahannock County, and he continued to be involved after making the move. : Thanks to his efforts and those of others in the county, Rappahannock may soon have its own chapter, but the first house will be built as a Rappahannock project with the sponsorship of the, Fauquier chapter. : The first house will be erected for Barbara Shanks and her family oin Piedmont Avenue. Mrs. Shanks, a widow who has raised four children, has a house, but it is in poor condition. The new house will be built on the same lot and then the old house will be dismantled Like other recipients of Habitat houses, the Shanks have assisted in building other houses; 500 hours of sweat equity are required to be eligible. I We are living in an economy in which too few jobs pay well enough to support a family. Housing has become an especially expensive part of living costs. Habitat provides a way to overcome that for some families. With donated labor and some donated materials, the house can be built for about half its normal cost. Habitat families acquire an affordable mortgage. I About 25 people, many with considerable construction skills, have volunteered. They need the help of many more who do not have to be skilled, although skills will certainly be welcome. Building will begin at 8 a.m. Saturday April 1. Organizers are hoping most of the work will be completed by 5 p.m. Sunday April 2; Volunteers are welcome to help for as much time as they can. A gfill will be set up on site to provide hot dogs for lunch. * Plan now to give at least part of the weekend of April 1 and 2 to volunteering to help with this project. If that is not possible, this time, the organization will be building other houses. Let Louise van Dort or Peter Kramer know of your interest so you will be contacted When the next project gets underway. Of course. Habitat can always also use financial contributions to help pay for the materials which must be purchased. Rappahannock County is in desperate need of more affordable housing. Habitat for Humanity can become part of the answer if enough people are willing to help. Say we'd better dib our corner.. before those Flickers find out about this!" a.

Letters to the Editor Seniors Thank Supporters To the Editor: The Class of 1995 can honestly say that no obstacle is too hard to overcome. Despite several setbacks and bad weather, we were able to sponsor a concert featuring Robert Glasker and The Blue Hawks to benefit the Senior Class. At this time, ue would like to give an extra thank you to Robert Glasker and The Blue Hawks, who so graciously volunteered to perform for us. We would also like to thank our administrator for the evening, Mike Tupper, as well as our chaperones: Mr. and Mrs. Grimes, Maggie Rogers, Pat Lawler, and Jon Heddleston. Mr. Heddleston also participated in our program with several songs, including one written for the Seniors. Last, but not least, we would like to thank all of you who supported this event. THE CLASS OF 1995 Rural Life Threatened To the Editor: I'm afraid that our pastoral way of life in Rappahannock that is here today, could easily be gone tomorrow alter hearing the sales pitch by Kellerco on proposed roads given to the Board of Supervisors, Planning Commission and public. Long ago, Rappahannock took a great measure towards the preservation of its villages, farms and community, by implementing the 25 acre zoning law. I'd like to keep that courage alive and in the forefront as we are confronted by new growth issues. I believe that the proposed road plan is actually a residual from the big Disney scare, but at the same time a grand opportunity for voices across the community to come forward and speak their concerns and ideas regarding development. Sinqe growth is a reality that should not be ignored, 1 suggest that we take out time to finely review this proposed plan and look at some alternatives for problem solving. Just as this expert was so readily available to tell us how and why to expand our “corridors’Vroads with the suggestion of future traffic lights, bypasses, enlarged corridors,” etc . l am sure that there is also an expert that can help us look at alternative ways. If Kellerco’s plan is based on “20-30-40 years from now” it does not need a decision today. Our neighboring counties are certainly feeling this “squeeze,” but I truly wonder whether Culpeper citizens were an active part of the decision making for the new Walmart or the 1,000 home sub-division planned for Boston (which borders Rappahannock)? Or if, the folks in Warrenton are concerned about both an extravagantly large K-Mart and a Walmart occupying space in their town? How about the new concert arena (second largest on the East Coast behind RFK Stadium) opening in Manassas/Gainesville in May? Or is everyone just accepting the “inevitable traffic and growth” story? Rappahannock looks mighty profitable to developers, but we don't have to be “Manassased," we can say “NO" just like did with Disney. 1 suggest that we hold a public meeting to discuss the roads issue and other environmental concerns now, so that we can continue to preserve this beautiful countryside, we so proudly call “Rappahannock.”. BRENDA VAN NESS Washington Builder Recognized To the Editor: I enjoyed reading your story on the work of Dwight Matthews in and around Rappahannock County. I am a great admirer of his talent and feel _M._ confident that his future as an architect in the county is assured. I would ask, however, that you make one correction. You stated that he had built a kitchen addition to The Conyers House Inn. In fact, he designed the addition, and we are extremely pleased with it. The construction was actually undertaken by Richard Brown of Harmony Design and Construction and 1 feel that this point should be clarified. NORMAN CARTWRIGHTBROWN The Conyers House (Editor's Note: The Rappahannock News regrets the error.) Supporters Thanked To the Cditor: 1 would like to thank everybody who helped so much at our recent Valentine’s benefit dance. The Wafers were fabulous — Julie Coon and Lisa Leftwich howled and crooned, Kevin Weisgerber and Les Nichols were born to be bartenders, all of the bouncers were strong and good-looking, and what a clean-up crew. The Washington Fire Hail was a terrific host, and we thank you. Finally, I am delighted to announce that Kathy and David Gilliam were the winners of the Most Romantic Couple Award. STELLA RICHARDS For Spring Mountain School ■I * Spring By WADE H. MASSIF JR Spring is coming I afn glad. Spring is coming I guess every one is glad to think that Spring is coming. I like to see the little buds burst and peep out and soon bloom, and see the leaves grow and to see the grass grow and see the animals eat it. They seem to enjoy it; they can eat it so close and it will grow again and not die. Every thing is pretty and green.

" Old Dominion Politics Warner in Election Battle By JOHN GOOLRICK I can hardly think of anyone I have personally admired more than Senator John Warner over the years. I met him while I was a political reporter and he was seeking the nomination for U S. Senate in 1978. He has been enormously popular in Virginia and, from all accounts, is one of the hardest working Senators in Washington. With only a couple of exceptions, his voting record has been steadfastly conservative and he has been a champion of a strong defense for America. Why then, one might ask, will Warner face a stem challenge from his fellow Republican Jim Miller in a primary to be held in June of 1996? The answer is that from the moment Warner'decided he could not support the candidacy of Mike Farris for lieutenant governor in 1993, there was no doubt that someone would challenge him for the nomination. And that became even more obvious last year when Warner not only refused to support party nominee Oliver North for U.S. Senate but actively recruited a candidate to run against him as an independent. Miller, a man of impeccable credentials and a former budget director under President Reagan, is a conservative who holds many of the same views that Warner does on economic and military issues, though he is somewhat to the right of Warner on some social issues such as abortion and school prayer. The foundation of his campaign will most likely rest on support of the party’s so-called right wing dominated by the Pat Robertson element It was that group that was largely responsible for North’s nomination. Miller has already proclaimed the basic theme of his campaign, namely that Warner does not deserve to run for re-election as a Republican because he failed the test of party loyalty by refusing to support two GOP nominees for major offices and was largely responsible for their defeat. That theme may resonate well with not only supporters of Farris and North miffed by Warner’s defection, but a number of Republicans who did not like those particular nominees but felt morally bound to work for their election These are Republicans who think no party can be successful unless after its nominees are selected in a fair process, all party members gather under the same tent in unity. Warner will certainly retain the backing of many thousands of Republicans who feel the state party has been taken over by extremists and that Farris and North were: extremist candi dates who did not deserve to win. He may also be able to attract many inde-, pendent voters into the primary . The senior senator from Virginia is at times almost eager for the coming flight. When angry elements of the' party threatened to work for his defeat following his decision not to endorse! Farris, Warner said he would be pre-* pared to take on all comers. And he has, a powerful ability to raise money, the mother’s milk of politics. Earlier this month former President George Bush, to the consternation of many Republicans allied against Warner, appeared at a fund raiser in his behalf in Richmond. State party chairman Patrick McSweeney has said he is considering running against Warner, but if he did and Miller stayed in the race it would be the best news Warner could he given because it would probably split the antiWarner vote. Miller will be a formidable opponent for Warner and the race could be a. close one, particularly since members of the party s right wing have a big grudge against. Warner and will be highly motivated to vote, l ook for lots of political action in Virginia next year.

Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Yoshio Korenaga kicks a soccer ball in practice last week. They're Playing Ball By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Wonderful weather last week enabled high school baseball and softball teams to get in their first full week of practice. They will open at home in games with Central Friday afternoon at 4 p.m. They will face Strasburg at home Tuesday. Coach Jason Gochenour said it is too early to predict how well his team . will do this year. “We lost several key players to graduation last year,” he said. However he has some starters returning and is counting on James Eastham and Paul Brown, senior cocaptains, for leadership. Besides those two, Jon Digges, Willie Eastham and Jon Digges are varsity players returning to the team this year. Willie Eastham, James Eastham and Jon Digges will be pitching. Griffin Ward will catch, Coach Gochenour said. The team had a scrimmage with Madison last week. Coach Gochenour said he was pleased with the hitting in that outing and reasonably pleased with the pitching. However, fielding and base running troubled him. “Our realistic expectation is to be competitive in every game,” he said. The team has three seniors, four juniors, six sophomores and one freshman. “It’s a young team without a lot of varsity experience,” he said. Although Coach Gochenour has experience umpiring and managing baseball teams, this is his first year as a varsity coach. Coach Carl Payne is also in his first year coaching softball. “It looks pretty good, so far,” he said, but added, “It’s hard to tell when you don’t know how good the other teams in the district are.” He has Cyndi Welch, Amy Payne, Susan Jewell and Janet Hitt returning to the varsity as seniors. Juniors Cari Kerr and Courtney Welch will add experience also. Junior Sandra Kludasch is an exchange student from Germany who has one year experience at home. Coach Payne is not sure how much she will be able to contribute, “but she’s fast,” he said. He is expecting pitching from Amy Payne, Kylene Wolf and Cyndi Welch. Angie Atkins will be catching. He is also expecting Keirsten Kerr to get a lot of playing time. Coach Payne said he has a number of freshmen out for the team, and while they may not get a lot of playing time, they will gain experience. “Our goal is to end up in the top four, to make the playoffs,” he said. Coaches Decry State of Track, Field By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock News Staff Writer Soccer and track seasons are underway at RCHS, but coaches of both sports are frustrated with the conditions of the field their athletes must put up with. Soccer coach Uli Maeyer still calls the soccer field at the high school a “potato field,” and he said, “1 will quit after this season because of the lack of support from the school system. I think I have built something in four years and did it without support. I am not willing to do it any longer.” He said that having football played on the field also made it worse, and nothing was done to the field to put it in good shape. He pointed out the brown strip down the middle of the field where grass had been worn away during football. The track coaches, Dave van de Graaff and Tammy Snider, are not only upset with the condition of the track and field, but they are sorry that once again the track team will be the only team in the district unable to host any track meets. Ms. Snyder said, “We can’t practice hurdles here at all. Hurdlers need a secure footing when they hit the ground.” The cinder track at the school is uneven because it has not been taken care of, said Mr. van de Graaff. He said that two students have had injuries already this season. “We need more resources available to make the facilities safe and usable. When you don’t have facilities that are up to par you are putting kids at risk,” he said. Not only does the track team need a better track, they need to do weight training, and that equipment is not available. The lack of weight training puts Rappahannock atudents at a disadvantage, according to Coach van de Graaff. - Ms. Snider said that a lot of students seem really interested in the track team at first, but the lack of facilities puts them off. However, there are still 32 on the team, but this New Baby Seminar Offered Fauquier Free Clinic is sponsoring a free four program series for mothers to be, new mothers, or anyone who is interested in having healthier babies. The programs will be held on four consecutive Mondays, 10 a.m. to noon, starting April 3. Free childcare will be provided during the programs, which will be held at Warrenton United Methodist Church, 341 Church Street, Warrenton.

Weingarten, Certified Massage Therapist. • April 17 — We Are What We Eat: The Importance of Good Nutrition, with Wendv Dodson, Certified Nurse Midwife and Kathleen Maier, Herbalist. • April 24 — Breastfeeding and What Next? with Diane Wood, birth consultant, and mothers from the community. Complimentary gifts for the baby and mother will be offered each week. Participants for all four sessions will receive free Lamaze birthing classes. These programs ha\ e been made possible with support from the March of Dimes Birth Defects Foundation. Space is limited. For questions and to register call the Fauquier Free Clinic at 347-0394. Clark Shines in Regional Fair, Again By BEA MOOK Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer For the second time in three years James S. Clark IV has won best of show at the Piedmont Regional Science Fair. As a result, Jim, now a junior at Rappahannock County High School, will attend his second International Science Fair, to be held this year in Hamilton, Ontario, May 7-13. Jim and best of show co-winner, Robert Rowley of Spotsylvania High School, were among more than 250 students who attended the regional science fair at Piedmont Virginia Community College on March 15. Sponsors included Virginia Power, GE Fanuc, the U.S. Army National Ground Intelligence Center and PVCC. Jim’s project was “The Traveling Salesman Problem-Phase III,” which also won first place in the computer science category and a special award from the Yale Science and Engineering Association as most outstanding exhibit. The 17-year-old showed computer solutions to determine how a traveling salesman can most efficiently travel from 15 to 300 different cities. When he won in 1993, he used humans to solve the problem. “I loved going to the international fair the first time and I’m really looking forward to going again,” he said. At the first international fair, Jim, then a ninth-grader, received a third place special award. He is the son of James S. and Elbe Clark of Washington. A goalkeeper for the school varsity soccer team and an active Boy Scout, his goal is to study electrical engineering or computer science in college. Robert Rowley of Spotsylvania High School was the other best of show winner. His “Superlift” design was for an airplane wing that uses its own power to climb faster and carry more weight through the air than current wings. Rowley’s project also won two. special awards and first place in the engineering category. Twenty-four Rappahannock County students attended the science fair. They included both high school and elementary school representatives. Nathan Flinchum won first place in the senior division Medicine and Science for his project “The Naked Tooth.” He will automatically advance to the state science fair in Richmond. In his project Nathan painted fluoride on egg shells and showed it does protect them from acid. In the junior division Lauren Sharp won third place in Environmental Botany for her project “Battle of the Mulch;" Candice Dennis won an honorable mention in Organic Chemistry for her project “Colors and Heat”; Chris Antony won third place in the Earth and Space Science division for “Radiation and Convectional Heating,” and Brady Wolfe-won third place in Physics B — Electricity and Magnetism for “Energy Efficient Lighting.” He also won the U.S. Department of Energy award for the best energy related project. In the senior division Mike Wolfe won third place in Behavioral and Social Sciences for "Feeling Comfortable with Computers”; Michael Wharton won third in Botany for “How Can Different Temperatures Affect Germination Rates?” and Tano Gomez won third place in Engineering for “The Design, Construction and Testing of a Go-Go Cart.” He also won the U.S. Army Engineering Award. includes a lot of eighth graders. Coach van de Graaff said that he,., thinks five or six students will make alf district status: Mark Jenkins, Holly Gangel, Eddie Sause, Dawn Havstad, Tomeka Carey and Caroline Baumgardner are the list bets at this point. Athletic Director Jack Raines said that he has been checking around with other schools to see what track faciliKindergarten Registration Scheduled All children who will be five years old by September 30, 1995, are eligible to enter school in the fall of 1995. Registration for children who are entering kindergarten for the first time this fall will be held at Rappahannock County Elementary school on Tuesday, April 4, Wednesday, April 5 and Thursday, April 6. The hours are from 9 a.m. until noon and from 1 until 3 p.m. by appointment. All children must be accompanied by an adult. In order that proper planning be done for material and staffing, it is essential that all prospective kindergarten children be registered on April 4, 5 and 6. Parents are requested to bring birth certificates and social security numbers to registration. Please contact the elementary school at 987-8259 with any questions or to arrange appointments for registration. Real Estate Eileen M. Day REALTOR DOOR, WINDOWS & ENERGY Windows and doors can be a big source of energy loss if they’re not properly treated. If you are looking to buy with an energy-efficiency eyev consider the following: Are the casings wood or metal? Because of their conductivity, metal window casings are less energy efficient than wood unless there’s a thermal break between the two layers of metal. Are the windows single-, double-, or triple-glazed for better protection from radiant heat? Are there storm doors or weather entries that buffer heat or cold? Is there a lot of glass on or near the southern and western exposure? This could lead to higher cooling bills in the summer. Are cracks and crevices around the windows and doors sealed and is there weather stripping? Weather stripping is easy to see. These items may seem minor, but could save you future monthly expenses.

Coach Maeyer expects his team to go to the regionals this year. “These kids are trying extremely hard. My expectation is that this should be the best year. This is the first time we have a bench of more than two. Physically we should be able to keep up with other teams now.” One thing that makes the team stronger is that seven or eight of the players have been playing together for two to three years now. Coach Maeyer said he can build the team with these experienced players. Some of the soccer players are also on the baseball team, which creates a dilemma, said Coach Maeyer. Many of the baseball and soccer games are scheduled on the same days, so players are forced to make a decision as to what team they wish to play on. Luke Zindel has already decided that he will play soccer instead of basebaH this season.

VIRGINIA DEALER RICK HUNT FAUQUIER’S LARGEST DEALER LINCOLN - MERCURY 703-3471234 WARRENTON, VIRGINIA 800-8684660 ► Scheer From Page A-l and said “you never drop out of a race because of money.” The $6,000 </an be returned, saved for a later race, or given to charity. While Mr. Wood said he expects to run again someday, he plans to give the donations back to anyone who wants'them, and to give the rest to charity. Mr. Wood said without pause that he did not think Mrs. Scheer could unseat Del. Katzen. And he won’t be endorsing her, either. “I have no idea what she stands for,” he said. “She has no name recognition, and she's a lot more liberal.” Mrs. Scheer is, admittedly, not a politician, and she claims to have “no political ambitions.” But she’s running anyway. As a delegate she hopes to protect funding for education that she considers endangered by Gov. George Allen’s program of tax cuts and spending reductions. She wishes to promote environmental issues that she ' believes Republicans in Richmond disregard. And to that end, she said, the first order of business is to flush incumbent Republican Jay Katzen from office. “One of the reasons my decision to run was made easier was what happened in the most recent General Assembly,” reads the statement she circulated at the county Democratic committee meeting Monday night. Del. Katzen “totally disregarded his District and cast his votes not with the District but with his patron, the Governor. The Governor’s program was the most damaging ever offered by a Chief Executive. It was rejected by the General Assembly, but Sue Scheer embraced by Mr. Katzen. Clearly the Governor is out of step with Virginians and Mr. Katzen is out of step with this District,” the statement continued. Del. Katzen said Tuesday that he believes district voters side with him on the issues of‘‘big government and big budgets," and will run confidently on his voting record. Democrats in Richmond, he said, “felt that every dollar of the state budget was perfectly spent. I don’t think there’s a single family in this country that can say that.” i Mrs. Scheer’s comments on education, he said, “are clearly not a reflection of reality. Fauquier County got in excess of $600,000 as an increase in funding from the state,” he said. And the majority party refused to consider a Republican initiative to dedicate lottery proceeds to localities that would have bolstered education funding. While he believes that “man and the environment can and should be protected together,” Katzen disagreed w ith an effort to create a new agency what he considers another level of bureaucracy — to do it. “I think that does reflect a clear difference in philosophy,” he said. A county resident for 30 years, Mrs. Scheer’s community activities have ranged from the vice-presidency of the Cedar Run Volunteer Rescue Squad Auxiliary to Brownie Scout leader. Her political background includes service as a legislative aide to Rep. Robert Barry in the 1960s, and later work as a congressional liaison for the Agency for Economic Development, a foreign aid division of the State Department. “1 have lobbied for conservation causes in Richmond and I know how the system works,” she wrote. “And I have weathered the rough and tumble of local politics.” A staunch preservationist who belongs to the Piedmont Environmental Council and Citizens for Fauquier County, Mrs. Scheer lost her planning commission seat when Cedar Run Supervisor Wilbur Burton declined to reappoint her in 1994. The two had disagreed over several issues. Mr. Burton was particularly unhappy with her opposition to the Auburn Dam and a plan to provide conventional sewer systems for Catlett, CTalverton and Midland. The platform of her delegate bid, as outlined in her announcement, focuses almost entirely on the local issues that have dominated Fauquier County politics. She discusses the need to support public education, agriculture, clean industry “that will meet the needs of our citizens,” “conservation and open spaces,” as well as “tourism and historic preservation.” She stresses environmental issues because “clean air and clean water are basic to human survival.” Her statement does not touch on issues of welfare reform, or funding strategies for parole abolition initiatives, or taxes. Perhaps the lone plank related to broader state issues is her professed “support of fiscal responsibility along with social responsibility.” From Page A-l ► Payne has been called the most important court in the justice system, Mr. Payne said, because it deals with impressionable youngsters in court for the first time, “and it has a legitimate shot at turning them around.” Other cases include custody disputes, domestic violence, child abuse and abuse or abandonment of elderly relatives. “A lot of what you see coming into that court is pretty unpleasant stuff,” he said. There are some “good news cases” as well: serious first offenses by juveniles with no prior problems with the law. “If the system works right, and the parents are working with you. you'll get that youngster into that courtroom and you’ll make it an experience where he never wants to come back in there again.” Mr. Payne said he feels strongly that judges must be given discretion to deal with offenders on a case-bycase basis. And, he said, new approaches must be considered. One Midwestern judge has imposed two requirements on young offenders: they must stay in school, and they must do well. Until they perform to his satisfaction they must return to his court each month for a progress report on their schooling. “If you don’t get your grades up, you’ll be coming back to his court forever ... A simple idea like that is working.” . . Mr. Payne said his own judicial philosophy is still forming. “I have every intention of reading as much as I can in the field, to try new ideas. I think this education idea is a terrific idea. “I think it’s a good idea, given the ability of the local community to handle it, to implement considerably more community service. “Again, you take that first-time offender who broke into the Pepsi plant, you send him back down there on a Saturday and tell him to wash trucks all day, he might think about not breaking into another building — unless he wants to give up another Saturday. “It’s an immediate punishment for what he did. It’s not draconian, he hasn’t been caned, he hasn’t been hung, but he’s been made to think about what he did for a full day — which is forever in the life of a 15year-old.” ► Budget From'Page A-1 tions along with a recommendation that the board grant at least a 3 percent raise. Hampton District representative Bryant Lee said the supervisors might not approve more than I percent. Board Chairman Beverly Massie suggested cutting S5.334 and eliminate payment for administrators who have at least 15 credit hours beyond a master’s degree. Dr. Gangel opposed that cut saying that supplement had already been granted to teachers this year, and pay scales for administrators are the least competitiv e of all the pay scales in the school system. Stonewall-llawthorn District representative John Tole suggested granting at least the 3 percent raise. Dr. Gangel noted that although all teachers will get credit for one more year of experience, for some of them that does not mean a raise without the increase to the salary scale. That is because teachers with one, two or three years of experience are paid the same. In the end Mr. Lee made the motion seconded by Dr. Tole to accept the cuts with the two percent increase. The motion passed unanimously. Dominion .Water, Inc. Since 1972 Wells, Pumps, Water Treatment r BUILDING A HOUSE CAN GET COMPLICATED WITH ALL THOSE DIFFERENT CONTRACTORS!

Me added that the point-topoint races are also field parties, but are grandfathered in. Mrs. Eastham said the kite festival will be a low-keyed affair with an emphasis on involving the county. It will be held in conjunction with Earth Day activities April 22, she said, and local Girl Scouts will benefit. She said she had been visiting schools in the area to teach kite making. Dr. Krebser asked if she could guarantee wind, and she said her husband Lindsey could provide it. At that point Mr. Eastham asked when opponents could speak about the application That application also won a unanimous recommendation for approval. The fifth chapter of the Comprehensive Plan deals with land uses and county services. The planners asked for a complete listing of properties under scenic easement and in agricultural and forestal districts to be included. Phil Irwin suggested they also include lists of subdivision lots plated but not built on that could be developed. They agreed that might help counter arguments that very little land in the county is available for building. They noted that both public schools and private schools in the county have excess capacity. On roads, Mr. McCarthy suggested they determine approximate routes for bypasses of Flint Hill and Woodville to prevent these areas from being developed. He said if they receive an application for development in the area, they can insist a way be kept open for the bypasses. He said he would meet with Richard Keller of Kellerco to develop further plans and they could then schedule a further public hearing.

Look out for the worms. There is a separate refrigerator just for worms. It is situated just under the “Hunting and Fishin’ News,” at the end of the main counter. Worms are also listed for sale in a chest freezer: $6.19 a foot for smooshed worms, and $5.49 a foot for unsmooshed worms. It can also be one of the toppings on your pizza, along with mushrooms and banana peppers. The sign on the coffee machine promises free refills for Redskins’ fans; Cowboys pay double. Right next to it,Mad magazine is for sale. Owner John Wiese says, “If you get to be a regular customer we will name * something after you.” All of the sandwiches are named after someone, and many candy bars are too. He’ll also name a food because of what someone reminds him of. He added a little girl’s name to Jolly Rancher candy because she is always jolly when she comes into the store. Every available space is filled with something, be it an antique, children’s artwork, an old Western saddle, a hornet’s nest, an old camera collection, newspaper articles about local friends and customers, and even an old set of Encyclopedia Bri^tanica. A collection of old bottles lines many of the shelves. 7 get more out of this store than I do out of the Wall Street Journal every day. -Harry Purdy It seems as much a museum as a store. Even the restroom is decorated with artwork and newspaper articles. There’s never a dull moment at this store. Last summer the store sponsored a “Viewtown Day,” and they offered free pizza and soda to all comers. It was a party which brought out many locals Brian Nestor records the weather forecast on chalkboard. roastmaster Barbara Thomas awaits customers. Spring Mountain Auction Will Have Bargains and Fun The Spring Mountain School’s annual fundraising auction, to be held Saturday, April 1, on the school front lawn (indoors in case of inclement weather) is a combination of festival, fundraising, and fun. According to auction chairperson Stella Richards, “it’s the place to be — it’s in the stars.” Ms. Richards, who is also an astrologer, cites the unusual planetary occurrence called a “Grand Trine” which favorably influences the fiery action of the live bidding which will begin at 3 p.m. and continue until approximately 4:30. Offered for the live bidding auction is a bounty of useful, pleasurable, and desirable delights such as antique furniture donated by Rush River Gallery, a Peter Kramer mirror, dining at Four and Twenty Blackbirds and Fiddler's Green, Great Meadow season Polo tickets, a truckload of manure or hay, tennis lessons with Hunt Harris, a session at Rappahannock Chiropractic Services, an astrological reading, organic beef roasts from Jordan River Farm, organic produce from Goat Hill Farm, an original handmade art dress by Julie Coon and Kim Doyle, a case of Welsh ale from Mountainside Market, aerobics classes with Beth Levick, massages with Kathleen Maier and Sherry Tweed, tree pruning from Trees Works, a children’s vitamin basket from The Natural Marketplace, designer fabrics, tools, vacation getaway, a wooden walking stick, and original art work by Jeff MacNelly, Robin Purnell, Jeanne Drevas, Dart Lewis, Sandra Forbush, Chris Stephens, Barbara Sherwood, Palmer Smith and Eric Kvarnes, among many other offerings. A wide variety of silent auction items will be on display and up for bids in the afternoon from 1 until 5 p.m. “Silent” indicates generally lower priced collectibles with a visible bid sheet. At 5 p.m. the auction activities will come to a crescendo with a free performance by the highly acclaimed local performing arts group, Friends of Gaia, which will premiere its story of Percephone and Demeter. Friends of Gaia delivers riveting, uplifting and energetic performances incorporating dance, music and the costuming of Peggy Schadler’s unique masques. Checking the starry charts shows that the April 1 auction is a peak time for such festivity, as well as for acquiring one-of-a-kind art work, furniture, and gifts at far below market value. “Last year people walked away with unbelievable bargains,” says Ms. Richards. “This year people can expectan even greater selection to pique their interest.” Proceeds from the auction directly benefit Spring Mountain, the area’s only Waldorf school. Currently consisting of nursery, kindergarten, and grades one to four, Spring Mountain will be offering a fifth grade next year. Bill Payne of Amissville will serve as auctioneer. Refreshments will be available throughout the day. and others. Mr. Wiese said that Santa Claus makes the store one of his stops too. Mr. Wiese said, “I really do enjoy the store and there are a lot of nice people out there.” Viewtown Store is the last store in the county to also house a post office. The Viewtown post office, zip code 22746, has been in the same building since 1890, according to Mr. Wiese. Barbara Thomas is the postmaster; she took over the job from Mary Priest. The post office is open from 10:30 a m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, and from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturdays. The store also offers a selection of 250 videos and has a copy machine. A sign invites you to “copy worms here.” There are picnic tables outside, and stools inside, for customers to relax and visit with other friends. The front of the store has a big wide porch on it too. Customer Harry Purdy said, “I get more out of this store than I do out of the Wall Street Journal every day.” Another customer, George Colvin, said he lives nearby and has been coming to the store since he was two. He runs the repair shop next to the store. F.ach day the weather report is listed on a blackboard behind the counter.

No one felt her shame as she slid her bag of belongings under the pew. When the minister asked if there was a special need, no one could hear her praver, for it was a silent plea. As the minister prayed, no one could taste the salty tear as it traveled the worn path down her cheek. The last hymn played. No one could know the scent of fear that permeated her soul as she remembered the dark night that lay ahead. As the church bells rang and she quietly slipped out of the pew and down the steps into the street, no one could see the angel on her shoulder... but God could...and He smiled. Worship this week.
