For now. Judge Joshua Robinson ruled Wednesday, after three days of mostly boring, highly technical testimony on the merits and demerits of sludge, that the county’s Board of Supervisors did not act in an arbitrary and capricious manner when it banned the spreading of sewage sludge on county farmland. First the judge congratulated the attorneys for both sides:”I appreciate your skill. You have made sludge interesting.” Then he quoted from an essay in the Virginia Law Review by Clayton P. Gillette on the design and practice of state and local government law. “It is tempting,” the judge read, “to inject the judiciary, with its ability to make determinations 7 am of the opinion that the county has the power...to adopt ordinances regulating or prohibiting the spreading of sewage sludge.... ’ - Gerald Baliles on an ad hoc basis, into each instance of perceived injustice. “Certainly that is the case where the perceived injustice emerges from governmental action, because the failure of courts to provide a corrective typically leaves little in the way of alternative forms of redress. “Yet judicial decision making provides no panacea, insofar as it involves a process that is not only costly in its own right, but that can only imperfectly determine whether a perceived impropriety constitutes an actual one.” Ms. Patricia Saltonstall, a joint plaintiff with Dale Welch and John Harrison Powers, had raised the separate issue of how the ban should be applied within Agricultural and Forrestal Districts. State law carefully restricts a county’s ability to interfere with normal farming practices within an Ag District. Judge Robinson ruled that “It would not be appropriate to treat her property differently than other property in the county.” The judge appeared to base his ruling in part on the General Assembly’s failure to take action after Attorney General Gerald Baliles issued an opinion on just this question for Caroline County in May, 1984. That opinion concluded, “I am of the opinion that the county has the power under Section 15.1510 to adopt ordinances regulating or prohibiting the spreading of sewage sludges and other wastes on farmland in the county.” “I have seen no change in Virginia Law to that opinion since 1984,” Judge Robinson said. At this year’s session of the General Assembly a bill passed the Senate that would have prohibited counties from banning the application of sludge. However the sponsors of that bill went across the hall and “picked up” the bill from a House Committee, thus killing it. In his closing argument for the county, Neal L. Walters referred to the General Assembly’s action and Virginia Supreme Court decisions, which suggest that when the Assembly fails to take a specific action, the reverse holds true: that is, the county must have the right to act as it did. Although both sides in this case presented technical experts to buttress their positions, the most telling testimony occurred Wednesday afternoon. One of the county’s last witnesses was Valerie A. Ford, senior environmental engineer for the Department of Environmental Quality at its northern regional office in Woodbridge. She told the court that she is the permit writer for all sludge applications within the 12 county area that includes Rappahannock, Loudoun and Fauquier counties. , She stressed that her department does not consider sludge a contaminant and does not test the stuff, instead relying on the haulers to provide the analysis. In earlier testimony, Jane B. Forste, who is a technical vice president for Bio-Gro (a sludge hauler), admitted that her firm does not test sludge for heavy metal concentrations or for its Nitrogen/Phosphorus/Potash ratio. Instead BioGro relies on private testing labs and the sludge provider, normally the Blue Plains Sewage Treatment Plant in Washington, D.C., for analysis data. Ms. Ford also told the court that her department inspects the sludge haulers once a year, and these inspections “are not surprise inspections ... the haulers are usually notified in advance.” Ms. Ford had difficulty identifying forms and reports from her own office files when they were presented to her by Mr. Walters. She appeared unsure of her duties as the only person responsible for ensuring that the complex rules and regulations concerning the manufacture and handling of sludge are followed. She also appeared unsure about the history and followup on sludge spills within her area. The other key witness was brought in for rebuttal by the plaintiffs. Dr. Rufus Chaney, who has been with the U.S. Dept, of Agriculture in its Environmental Chemistry Laboratory for decades, is known throughout the country as the pre-eminent expert on sludges. A large man, he filled the witness booth in the courtroom as he firmly explained why heavy metals in sludges do not pose a significant health risk. “In fact,” he said, “If you have urban soils heavily contaminated with lead, you will actually reduce the amount of available lead in the soil by adding sludge to it. The metals in the sludge will help bind up the existing lead in the soil so it is less available to be adsorbed by young children.” Dr. Chaney believes firmly that properly prepared Class I and Class 11 sludges can be applied See Sludge, Page A-6 Road Opponents Pack Courthouse Public Forum Cut Short By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Several hundred people packed the Courthouse for the Board of Supervisors public forum on a road plan presented by Kellerco under a contract with Planning District 9. After a few had an opportunity to express their unhappiness with the plan. Sheriff John Henry Woodward said the crowd violated fire safety codes, and the meeting was terminated with the possibility that another meeting may be held at a later date at the high school or that no meeting will be held. The entire area normally occupied by the judge, attorneys, defendents and jury^ was packed with people as were the stairs, and seats. Extra seats had been brought out. Many people were standing or sitting on the floor. County Administrator John McCarthy said the county has been trying to “beef up” its Comprehensive Plan, primarily by developing plans for the General Commercial area between the Toll House and the Shade Road on U.S. 211. He said the road plan offers choices for the county- tyChairman Hubert Gilkey said, See Roads, Page A-6 Schools' Budget Cut by $127,400 By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer The Board of Supervisors cut the school budget by $127,404.60 before adopting the $6 million budget for next year. The proposal was made by Piedmont District representative Charles K. “Pete” Estes who added that the supervisors would be willing to add $47,000 if indeed the number of students in the pre-school handicapped class requires the addition of another teacher and teachers’ aide. The discussion of the budget included long periods of silence as supervisors indicated indecision on what to do. Stonewall-Hawthom District representative Robert Anderson started the discussion by asking Superintendent David Gangel what could be cut without damaging education. Dr. Gangel said the budget includes $41,000 to replace the roof See Budget, Page A-6 Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindv Mahan Don Chamlee and Willie Shanks worked on the front porch of the Habitat for Humanity house Sunday. Habitat House Almost Done At the end of the second weekend of work the Habitat for Humanity house being built for the Shanks family is ready for paint inside. Project manager Peter Kramer said rain Sunday kept the oiltside from being completed, and a work day this Saturday starting at 8 a.m. is planned for painting and final outside work. “We almost did it in two weekends," he said. “It’s just great. There’s a warmth that is incredible. It’s wonderful to see all of that blend.” He said work on the septic tank and drainfield will be completed in the next 10 days, and following the completion of the outside work and painting, all that will remain is flooring, carpeting and vinyl. He said he expects the house to be ready for the Shanks family to occupy by May 15.

Manson To Seek Seat on School Board By CINDY MAHAN Rappihsnnock Non Staff Writer Ellen Manson will be running for the Wakefield District seat on the School Board this fall. She will be up against Paul Nichols who has been on the school board for 32 years. Mr. Nichols had earlier decided not to run, but when contacted on Monday, he said he will be running. Mrs. Manson has three children (including two'step-children) who •^attend the public high school, and lives in Flint Hill with them and her . husband Wayne Wilson. Though she has not been a member of a school board before, she feels well qualified to do so. She said, “I think it is a good school system. I believe in community service and I believe we should participate.” Two of the concerns she would like to see addressed are to build on the current strengths of the programs and to have open communication in the school system. She said, “1 would like to see more of everybody being able to have some input into the schools and being able to ask questions without fear of being given a hard time.” She said she is really concerned about safety and health issues in the schools, including how safe the buildings are. Also, she believes the students should receive as much health education as possible, especially with AIDS and drug problems being so prominent nowadays. “It would be good to have someone in the school be able to handle emergencies,” she said. Mrs. Manson said that she fikes being direct, open and honest and feels that people should talk about their problems. She has heard that ' there have been some sexual issues on some of the school buses. “We can’t let things get out of control,” she said. She would like to see more availability of the vocational programs and hands-on skills taught so that the kids can earn a living when they get out of high school, because many of those who graduate from RCHS do not go on to college. “Working at McDonald’s is not a living,” she said. Mrs. Manson has a strong background in nursing and has a Masters of Science in Nursing from the Catholic University, with a major in psychiatric/mental Health nursing clinical specialization and a minor in nursing administration. Currently, she works as a part-time private practitioner providing counselling for children, adolescents and families with an office in her home; is a parttime relief nursing supervisor at the Northern Virginia Mental Health Institute in Falls Church; is an on-site visitor of nurse aide education programs for the Virginia Dept, of Health Professions and Board of Nursing; is the Clinical Coordinator for the Rappahannock-Rapidan CISD Team in Culpeper; and is a volunteer consultant for Critical Incident Stress Debriefing Teams and other groups in the areas of stress management, problem solving, disaster management, project management and conference planning. As a nursing administrator, Mrs. Manson dealt with budgets up to $10 million. On a volunteer basis, she works as an EMT for the Flint Hill Volunteer Fire Department; the Red Cross; Hospice of the Rapidan; and is a Rappahannock County representative to the Rappahannock Rapidan Community Services Board.

Instead, two committees will be appointed. The Building Committee will be charged with bringing plans to solve the church’s immediate needs by making changes in the basement level of the parish hall and constructing another building on the lot across Gay Street next to the building that houses Mountainside Market. The Acquisition Committee is to seek out a 10 to 15-acre parcel of land near Washington that could be used for a new church home or sold if it is not needed and plans to purchase the property.

The classic event, celebrating its Bank Wants To Relocate Officers of the Rappahannock National Bank are considering moving out of Washington. Chief Executive Officer John Conry said no decision has been made on a site, but the bank is exploring options for another location. He said sometime in the future the bank may want to add a drive-in window or cash machine, and the old building they are currently in is not conducive to such alterations. 70th anniversary, is often referred to as the Kentucky Derby of Steeplechasing on the same First Saturday in May as the flat race at Churchill Downs.

Hundreds of people packed the Courthouse Monday evening. Most wished to deliver the message to the members of the Board of Supervisors that they should “Just Say, No” to the Kellerco proposals for county roads. “Just Say, No” wasn’t a very helpful approach to the issues of drug use and teen-aged pregnancy, and it is not likely to be particularly helpful in dealing with current and future traffic problems in the!county. Burying our heads in the sand and hoping the 18-wheelers will go away is not much of a strategy. No one wants to see U.S. 211 widened to six lanes, but if the county wants to keep that from happening, it must insist that VDOT not allow more and more cuts to be made onto the road for businesses. The two additional cuts for the 211 Quicke Mart and the pattern of lane crossings that have resulted illustrate the sort of problem that leads to congestion and the demand for more lanes. It would have been far better if the entrance to the new business had been off an access road across from the crossover point. There is currently no need for four lanes for any section of U.S. 522 in Rappahannock County, but if continued development on our borders increases traffic, and decisions by VDOT in surrounding areas cause more and more trucks to use the road, the day may come. Most of the proposals in the Kellerco plan are not on any VDOT plan, but funds for planning a Sperryville by-pass are included on the primary road six-year plan. So far two horrendous routes for such a by-pass have been proposed. One would leave about a dozen residences outside the town and cut the through road for them. The second would line the by-pass up with Route 231, a state scenic highway, thus encouraging traffic to use Route 231, rather than U.S. 522. Pressure on the supervisors to “Just Say, No” prevents any intelligent discussion of more palatable alternatives. While many oppose any bypasses of our villages, others believe intelligently done bypasses could improve village life. However, it is unlikely anyone wants a Flint Hill by-pass to divert traffic from U.S. 522 onto Route 729 going past Ben Venue. A “Just Say, No” approach prevents that distinction from being made. 'The mail brings an intriguing suggestion from Pam Lynn that the county seek to have both U.S. 522 and Route 231 barred to through truck traffic. Since U.S. 522 is a U.S. highway and part of the state’s arterial road network, it is unlikely any such thing could ever happen. However truck traffic could indeed be discouraged by frequently employing portable scales. ;Route 231 is another case entirely. Since it is a designated scenic highway, it seems that such a proposal is a possibility. However, that leaves the question of who is going to follow trucks from Sperryville to Madison to check and see whether they indeed go through. Some of these issues will be raised again at a forum sponsored by RLEP on Thursday, May 11 at The Theatre. With luck county residents can move from protesting about what they don’t want to discussing what they do want with the realization that no matter how much they may want everything to just stay the same, that is the only thing that cannot happen.

Letters to the Editor Keep Out Trucks To the Editor: Anyone who lives in Rappahannock County knows that the proposed Kellerco road widening plan benefits only the truckers who are either, one, avoiding weighing stations, thus tolls on Interstates 66 or 81 or, two, using Rappahannock County as a shortcut to Charlottesville via Route 231, a designated scenic highway. I suggest that rather than widening our roads, thus accommodating and encouraging further truck congestion, noise and pollution, that the following sign be posted at both ends of U.S. 522 and Route 231. THIS ROAD IS CLOSED TO ALL THRU TRUCK TRAFFIC; VIOLATORS WILL BE FINED $1,000; RESIDENTS WILL REPORT VIOLATORS. I further suggest that a petition stating this proposal be circulated immediately and sent to all pertinent parties at the local, state and federal levels of government. Widening U.S. 211 is also ridiculous as it dead ends into a National Park road that can’t handle the traffic generated by the existing four lane highway and which, by its nature, should not be changed to accommodate more. This may be food for a separate petition. I’m pretty sure that the feeling is widespread that we don’t want Rappahannock County to become just an alternative truck route. If it did, it would lose that charm which attracts the tourist dollar. This charm is far more important to the local economy than the passing trucks, which leave only fumes. PAMELA W. LYNN Washington Community Thanked To the Editor: We are writing to express thanks to the members of the community who took the time to attend the (attempted) meeting of the Board of Supervisors on May 1. This type of community involvement and concern should be applauded as a sign of an active and concerned community. Unfortunately, it seems that many people came away from the meeting more confused than educated on the matter. Suburban sprawl is heading toward Rappahannock County at an alarming rate. One only needs to look at our borders; on 211 east toward Warrenton a housing development stands literally on our border, on 211 at Boston a 1000-unit housing development has obtained its sewage discharge permit and will probably be built on our border, and the development just over the mountain in Chester Gap is obvious. We, as a community, seem to have met the challenge of the Kellerco report, but the battles are only beginning. We, as a community, must continue to leam about the tools available to us to plan our future as a county and as a community. Communication is the first step in the process of public empowerment. Toward this end, the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection is sponsoring a series of Public Forums in the county. On May 11 the first meeting will take place at the theatre in Washington at 7 p.m. This forum will include a variety of speakers with information on transportation planning and land use, water issues, citizen empowerment, and other issues of local and regional importance. Also at this meeting there will be a discussion and clarification of the Kellerco report and what it means to Rappahannock County. Included in this discussion will be definitions of many of the terms and methodologies used by various planners. The objective of this community forum is to help educate and empower county citizens. Please join us in learning about how to sensibly plan our county’s future. For more information, contact RLEP at the Ragged Mountain Resource Center at 675-1879.

There are so few really good programs that all the family can enjoy, whenever we do see one, the producers need to hear from viewers if it is CHRISTOPHER MOYLES and HUNT HARRIS Castleton Lets Kee| 'Christy' to continue. Yes, we can made a difference! Last year when we were at Dolly wood in Pigeon Forge, Tenn., we met an elderly couple who proudly told us they had grandchildren in the live play “Christy,” playing nearby which used locals for the play. “Christy” is based on one of America’s best-loved literary classics by Catherine Marshall. “Christy” stars Kellie Martin (“Life Goes ON”) in the title role; four-time Emmy Award winner Tyne Daly (“Cagney & Lacey”) plays Miss Alice, her mentor, who in 1912, encourages young Christy to forsake city life and move to a poor community in Appalachia. Her mission was to teach school, making a difference in the lives of the poverty-stricken children living in the mountains. “Christy” also stars Randall Batinkoff (“School ties”) as a young minister who becomes Christy’s soulmate, and Steward Finlay-McLennan (“The Road Warrior”) as the community’s doctor. Tess Harper (“Crimes of the Heart,” “Tender Mercies”) plays Fairlight Spencer, a local woman who helps Christy understand the customs and superstitions of the mountain people. Although designated a novel, “Christy” is, in fact, a thinly veiled biography of Catherine Marshall’s mother, Leonora Wood, who volunteered to teach in a mission school in Del Rio, Tenn. and was forever changed by the experience. (In the show, Del Rio becomes “Cutter Gap”) The novel, first published in 1967, is now in its 84th printing. It is estimated 30 million Americans have read the book, which the Baltimore Sun said “overflows with real-life happenings and the spirit of a frontier community where a young woman first encounters life’s real meaning and challenges.” CATHY SMITH Amissville No Offense Intended To the Editor: Regarding a quote from the article that was done about me, 1 would just like to stress that in no way had I intended for it to be offensive to any of the past players or coaches of the last seven years. I was only comparing the Rapp team that 1 remember playing against my senior year in high school to the present one. COACH BALTIMORE Front Royal Justice Denied To the Editor: Regarding the trial, Welch versus the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors; I would like to commend the following; Dr. Greg Evanylo from VPI, Dr. Rufus Chaney from USDA, Dr. Carl Sawyer form the State Water Control Board and Jane Forste from Bio-Gro. From their testimony it was inspirational to realize that the institutions that they represent are in exceptional hands. As for the trial: The Rappahannock board should not gloat nor be jubilant over their victory, because they received one of the most lopsided shellackings I have ever witnessed in a court of law. When we look to our courts for redress, and are dished this type of justice, is it any wonder the American people have disdain for the judicial institution? The litigants may be better served by the Virginia General Assembly and the Right to Farm Act to rectify and make impotent the verdict. DR.WILLIAM D.

Baseball Team Gets First Win By CINDY MAHAN and SHARON KILPATRICK Rapp*k<n»ock Niw» Staff Writer! The baseball team chalked up its first win last week beating Page County 5-2 on Tuesday. Then the team dropped a game to Luray Friday 9-7. Meanwhile the softball team lost to Page 14-8 and roared back defeating Luray 20-6. In the game with Page Tuesday Willie Eastham pitched the whole game giving up two runs on nine hits with only one walk and six strikeouts. Rappahannock took the lead in the first inning when Jon Digges doubled in James Eastham. Page tied the score in the top of the third inning, but Rappahannock got another run in the bottom of that inning when Paul Brown got a single and scored on James Eastham’s double. A single by Jason Brown in the bottom of the fourth added two more Panther runs when Adam Bouffard and Griffin Ward scored. Page got another run in the top of the fifth, but in the bottom of the sixth Rapp added the insurance run when Jason Brown’s single scored Griffin Ward. Jason Brown led the hitting going 3 for 4 with three RBIs. In the Luray game Luray got out to a 4-1 lead in the first inning. Rapp got two more runs to bring the score to 4-3, but then Luray added another three runs and led 7-3. Luray added another in the fifth inning and one in the seventh and led 9 to 5 going into the bottom of the seventh. The Panthers added two more runs but could not make up for falling behind in the beginning. Coach Jason Gochenour said allowing nine walks in the first three innings contributed to the loss. “The team did a good job of battling back,” he said. Jason Brown, James Eastham and Paul Brown each had two hits. “Tuesday we played the best baseball we could play. We stayed focused and outhit them. Today we just got ourselves in a hole,” he said following Friday’s loss. In the softball team’s loss to Page Tuesday Amy Payne pitched the whole game giving up one walk and getting four strikeouts. Cyndi Welch got two singles. Janet Hitt and Angie Atkins each had a double, and Amy Payne and Courtney Welch each had a single. Luray ran into a buzzsaw in the bottom of the sixth inning against the Panther squad Friday. With Rappahannock leading 11-6, the home team got virtually everyone on base at least once in that inning, and most managed to score. Rappahannock added another nine runs to the score. Kylene Wolfe started for the Panthers and pitched four innings getting credit for a win in her first start. The team gathered in 17 hits. Cyndi Welch had three singles. Janet Hitt had two singles. Cari Kerr led the batting with three doubles and a single. Kati Paratore and Tiffany Keys had two singles each. Julie Atkins had a single as did Courtney Mauro. The baseball and softball teams return home to host George Mason next Tuesday. The track team had a tough time against George Mason and Central on April 26, with only one team member placing first in any event. Holly Gangel outran everyone in the 1600m run with a time of 6:08. Caroline Baumgardner finished fourth. Holly finished second in the 3200m run; and Regan Nesmith came in fourth in the 200m run. In the girls’ field events, Dawn Havstad placed second in the shotput, and Sarah Gentry came in fourth. Sarah also placed fourth in the discus. In the boys’ track events, Willie Shanks again proved himself in several events, placing third in the shotput, long jump, high jump, and the 100m dash. Mark Jenkins placed second in the 1600m run, and placed fourth in the 3200m run. Heplace fourth in the long jump. Jason Carter finished fifth in the shotput, and Ozzie Villar came in fourth in the 800m run. Soccer coach Uli Maeyer said he and his team are very upset about their loss to Central last Wednesday. He really felt that some bad calls by the refs caused Rappahannock to lose the game. Rappahannock was leading 1-0 at the end of the first half, and “the team played absolutely excellent. I was convinced we would win,” said Coach Maeyer. His team, though, ended up losing 2-1.

Well, let me reassure the elder citizens out there that age alone has very little to do with a lender approving a mortgage. It is not unusual for mortgage terms to exceed life expectancies. It is done all the time. When you think about it, basing a mortgage loan on age alone would preclude many of today’s buyers from getting the average 30-year fixed mortgage. The primary consideration of the lender is the value of the underlying asset being given as security. In other words, “How much is the property worth?” The other major consideration is the ability of the borrower to meet his or her repayment obligations. If the property to be purchased is of reasonable value, a reasonable down-payment is made and the borrower shows the financial ability to make the monthly payments, elder buyers should not experience any unusual difficulty in arranging a mortgage.

► Budget From Page A-l over the gym and cafeteria at the elementary school. He said the ceiling is discoloring, indicating it is absorbing water, but so far the ceiling tiles are not disintegrating and water is not getting on the floor. He said it might be possible to delay replacing the roof. Hampton District representative Mike Massie said he thought it was a good idea to replace the roof as part of a continuing program of maintenance. Jackson District representative Ellis Bingham suggested the supervisors approve only a $300,000 increase in county aide for the schools instead of the $431,000 requested. “I’d hate to see a tax increase,” he said. “Things in the economy are only going to get worse.” Mr. Massie said he felt this school budget had a great deal of support in the community. Following the decision to cut the budget, he noted that it still represented the greatest increase in county funds for school operation in the county’s history-. Mr. Anderson noted that Rappahannock County is not far behind Fairfax, in per pupil spending for education, and ahead of Loudoun, Prince William and Fauquier counties. Having saved about two cents on the potential tax rate, the supervisors next considered a request by the Fire and Rescue Association for $275,587 in funding to cover operating costs for the fire and rescue squads. Frank Huff said this could be supported by a “fire tax” on real estate. Unlike the regular real estate tax, land use is not considered in the fire tax. County Administrator John McCarthy said. As a result one penny raises about $75,000, and a four-cent tax could cover the request. The supervisors agreed to advertise a public hearing for next year’s budget that would include a rate of 71 cents on real-estate and a 4-cent fire tax for their June meeting. If the tire tax is adopted, two cents could be dropped from the regular real estate rate, since the fire association’s request includes the funds the county has been providing from the general fund to cover insurance and some / training and capital expenses. If the county adopts a fire tax, the supervisors would also appoint a commission to decide how the funds are spent. The supervisors heard a long presentation by Dennis Purschwitz on installing an artificial wetland to treat leachate at the landfill. Mr. Purschwitz of Post, Buckley, Schuh and Jernigal said that most existing artificial wetlands are being used for sewage treatment, but they could treat leachate. The county is currently paying between $38,000 and $40,000 to haul leachate and storm water run-off to the Warrenton Sewage Treatment Plant for treatment and disposal. Mr. Purschwitz estimated the cost of installing an artificial wetland at, $45,000. He said it would be “low tech and easy maintenance.” The supervisors agreed that Mr. McCarthy and Mr. Purschwitz should explore this option with the state Department of Environmental Quality. Following an executive session the supervisors appointed James Preston Leake as the new animal warden. ► Roads From Page A-l “This is not a proposal to build these roads. The Board of Supervisors did not put any money into this.” Later he retracted that statement, saying that the county had contributed $2,001 to the cost of the study. Richard Keller of Kellerco said the county needs to consider the plans “to prevent problems we see in developed areas.” He said some of the reasons for highway congestion are traffic volumes that exceed road capacity, strip commercial development, incremental site plan approval, a lack of interjurisdictional cooperation, and a lack of coordination between land use and transportation studies. Melinda Alexander asked how such plans could be justified on the basis of highway counts that are suspect. Lyle Alexander asked the supervisors to drop all plans for bypassing the villages after saying that neither of the two businesses in Woodville could survive without through traffic. Someone asked for a show of hands on those who opposed the roads, and most of the people in the room raised their hands. Conversations continued on the Courthouse grounds for nearly an hour after die meeting ended. ► Sludge From Page A-l safely to farmland when all the rules and regulations are followed. Those rules are laid out in the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Part 503 Regulations. This is a large tome that requires an aditional two volumes to explain it in simpler language. These regulations, which have been adopted in the main by Virginia, lay out how sludge is to be created, handled and distributed back into the environment. Dr. Chaney displayed a vast knowledge of the current scientific literature in the field of sludge. He has written a lot of it. He was directly involved in the studies and risk assessment that led to the 503 regulations. He does not believe there can be any reasonable debate on the safety net provided by the regulations. Those who disagree with him, “have not read enough of the literature,” he said. His primary purpose on the stand was do rebut the testimony of Dr. Stanford Tackett, a chemist from Indiana, Pa., who has studied the effects of lead contamination, especially on young children. Dr. Tackett’s position is that sludges contain lead and that it is a mistake to introduce any additional lead into the environment as some minute amounts will be adsorbed by living organisms. Dr. Chaney’s steadfast belief that sludges are absolutely safe when all the rules are followed was matched by Dr. Gregory K. Evanylo, who is a crop and soil scieritist at VPI in Blacksburg. Testifying for the plaintiffs on Tuesday afternoon, Dr. Evanylo confidently supported the assumptions embodied in the regulations. a n d values Mother's Day is 9.99-14.99 MISSES' T-SHIRTS.

• Community News • Obituaries Rappahannock News / • Real Estate; • Classifieds WEDNESDAY, MAY 3,1995 Three Generations Have Run Hackley's Store By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock Ncwa Staff Writer Hackley’s Store in Amissville bills itself as “the country store for the 90’s, from feed to fax.” It’s true. The store is much, much more than just a place to pick up groceries. Besides groceries, owners Jan and Ron Makela offer Purina feeds, UPS shipping services, work pants, flannel shirts, womens’ denim jumpers, boots, straw hats, pet products (including cockatiel food), hardware, farm and gardening supplies, garden seeds, bedding plants, Natural Guard fertilizers and pesticides, copy and fax services, propane, gasoline, canning supplies, fishing supplies, and more. The store was built in 1934 by Graham Hackley, and was taken over by his daughter Jan and her husband Ron just four years ago. The original store was actually built on the comer across from the present store in 1908. When that one burned down, the new one was built on its present site. Mr. Hackley’s parents owned the store before him, so it has remained a family business throughout its history. Graham and his wife Dorothy Hackley still live in the house to the side of the store, where Mr. Hackley was bom and has lived his entire life. “He still visits the store every day,” said Mrs. Makela. And up until a few years ago, Mr. Hackley made at least one trip a week into Washington, D.C. or Baltimore, leaving at 4 a.m., to buy fresh produce. He said it was better quality and was cheaper. Years ago he would take in chickens, turkeys, eggs and other items from his customers to trade for produce. “After everyone started shooting down there I stopped going,” he said. Now instead of taking care of the store all the time, he takes care of his cows and pigs, and enjoys spending time with his grandson Joshua, who is in kindergarten at RCES. Back in the 60’s, said Mrs. Makela, she remembers signs in the front window of Hackley’s advertising groups that were playing at Morgan’s, a segregated nightclub east of Hackley’s on U.S. 211: the Supremes, Temptations and B.B. King. Upon graduation from high school, Mrs. Makela left Rappahannock and moved to Virginia Beach. She met her husband Ron there, and they moved back to Amissville four years ago to take over the store. She said that when she left Rappahannock, there was no arts community, no restaurants, tourism, or four lane highway through Amissville. It is more than full time for both of them, and they have help from several peoplo, including some high school students. Some of the students attend Culpeper High School, but one, Daniel Hitt, attends RCHS. The store owners are very adamant about recycling. On the Graham and Dorothy Hackley ran the store for years. RCHS Play Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Amy Hathaway rehearses for “The Glass Menagerie.” front porch are two large receptacles for recycling bottles and cans. They sell several recycled products, including re-refined automotive oil. Sierra coolant, a safe antifreeze which will not kill dogs, is also on the shelves. They use 100% recycled paper for the copy machine. As far as they know, they are the only country store in the county to sell organic gardening products. Mr. Makela said he doesn’t see the sense in recycling things if you don’t also purchase items made from recycled goods. Mr. Makela plays selections from his 300-CD collection during the day, such as old jazz, old blues and big band. “It is an old store; we play old music,” he explained. The hardware department, located toward the back of the store, is probably larger than any in the county except for the Co-op. It includes all sizes of nuts and bolts, painting supplies, sandpaper, chain, tools, tool belts, chain saw oil, and even hog scrapers. The clothing department is also well stocked, with mens’ work pants, denim jackets, boots, shoes, socks and even underwear. It also has Rappahannock and Hackley’s Tshirts, sweatshirts, suspenders, and denim jumpers. They have a full line of animal feed (the sign hangs from the ceiling behind the checkout counters). Plenty of birdseed is available too. They have thistle seed (especially good for attracting goldfinches) for $1.12 per pound; cracked com for 25 cents a pound; and sunflower seed ranging from 40 to 49 cents a pound. The toiletries section carries Equine shampoo, which Mrs. Makela says is outstanding. It was developed Rappahannock News Staff Photos/Cindy Mahan Hackley’s Store in Amissville has been a landmark for three generations. for horses, but is very popular with human customers at Hackley’s. Bag balm is another popular product, especially for gardeners at this time of year. The deli offers chili and soups in cold weather, and year-round offers barbeque, country ham, and many other types of sandwiches. The country ham sandwich is a good two inches thick, reminiscent of a New York deli style sandwich. Otis Spunkmeyer cookies are for sale too. Look here too for the Wisconsin Purnells' Work at Library By DIANA BIRD Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer Robin Purnell’s ten paintings and drawings hanging this month in the Rappahannock County Library make up a representative group for those unacquainted with her work. On the other hand, her admirers will be pleased to see familiar faces among recent examples of her art. Three pictures of her daughter, Ruth, stand out, first because one of them, small in size but monumental in conception, displays how much virtue can be concentrated in a little place. Ruth’s expression is intensely alive, while the simplicity of the picture has been made to show an elegant person. Her red hat, concealing her hair, an unexpected earring, and the stand-up collar of her green blouse all contribute moving lines that complement the freshness of her face. The cleanness and clarity of this image reminded me of some outstanding Renaissance portraits. The color of Ruth’s eyes in the small picture is a mystery solved when we turn to the large painting, “Ruth in a Winter Landscape.” This picture takes us to St. Petersburg where Ruth sits in a beautifully shaped wooden sleigh on snow before a forest. Older now, with a dreamy look in grey eyes, we are glad Robin has captured this pre-adolescent image of her child. The drawing for this picture is there for us to compare it to, and we have the pleasure of see Review ing Ruth in a merrier mood. A new painting of a matured Lyttelton Wood, holding a turkey feather, among trees and with a symbolic red-bellied woodpecker perched beside him, is another example of the finish and literalness of Robin’s technique. A pastel drawing of Sylvia Golubic captures a skepticism and a slight sadness one doesn’t associate with this vibrant, responsive person. A red pencil drawing, a study for a painting of Joyce Abell, brings out a dignity and pensiveness we recognize in this strong personality. To me Joyce seems to be thinking T.S. Eliot’s, “Time present and time past/Are both perhaps present in time future,/And time future contained in time past.” Each of Robin’s pictures is worthy of comment, including the four I have not mentioned. All of them display a distinct realism which, like a mnemonic trick, impresses the image in the viewer’s mind. I should also like to call attention to several handsome picture frames. We are lucky to have Robin’s interest in preserving for us some of the memorable citizens of Rappahannock. The paintings will be on display through the month of May. Bird Walk Set for Saturday As part of its ongoing series of educational and recreational activities for the community, RLEP and the Ragged Mountain Resource Center will offer an early morning bird identification walk with local naturalist Lyt Wood this Saturday, May 6. The walk will begin promptly at 6 a.m. at Lyt’s home, Singing Creek. To get there, take Route 231 south from Sperryville to the Hazel River bridge, take a right on 681 and go for one mile to Route 600. Take a right on 600 and then take the first driveway on the right, and bear right to the end of the driveway.

In the frozen section are salmon steaks, skinless chicken breast, rib eye and Tbone steaks, scrapple, Gomish game hens, and hamburger meat. Wine from the Gray Ghost Winery just down the road is sold in the store too. along with a good selection of other wines and beers. Near the checkout counter are jars of penny candies, sugar free candies, magazines, and unbelievably, disposable spittoons. One of the most popular canned goods is Betty Ann creecy greens imported from Tennessee. Mr. Makela said that one family from Florida picks up a case of the greens on their way through the county. There is also a large selection of Made in Virginia products, including jams, preserves, jellies and relishes. Some of them are made by Jessica Hall of View-town, with the Bounty From the Farm label. Hackley’s is also the store where people in Amissville can leave information to go in Cathy Smith’s social column for the Rappahannock News each week. There is a slot in the door if someone comes after hours. The store is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday. In the spirit of providing everything possible for their customers, both Mr. and Mrs. Makela are also notary publics. And they sell worms. Jan and Ron Makela keep old traditions and add new ones.

Marvelous Marinades in Minutes By HELEN SMITH Extension Agent, Home Economics The 17th century English word, “marinade,” comes from the Spanish word for the sea, or “marinade.” Originally, marinades were only made of salt (hence the sea reference) and served as a way to preserve foods before the days of refrigeration. Today, marinating is a culinary technique used to tenderize and enhance the flavor of many foods. Marinades are seasoned liquid combinations of cooking oils, acids (such as vinegar, soy sauce, wine, juice or buttermilk) and flavor agents. To marinate is to soak your food in a liquid combination for a certain period of time. The oil acts as a moisturizer, while the acid tenderizes the food. Sugars, herbs and spices are among the most common marinade flavorings, giving marinades a wide range of sweet and sour flavor intensities. Why Marinate? Today's busy lifestyles doesn’t leave much time for cooking preparation, and that’s where marinades work their magic. You can have a great tasting meal ready to cook in minutes just be marinating overnight or before leaving for work. Also, marinades add zip to today’s healthy diet of lessfatty meats and vegetables. On lean cuts of meat, marinades act as a moisturizer in place of fat. The flavor agents in marinades can add a splash to the vegetables you eat to meet your “5 a Day” requirements. Fresh bell peppers, tomatoes, artichokes, mushrooms and cucumbers can be turned into tempting and zesty chilled salads with the right mix of herb flavorings and oil. In short, you can’t beat the versatility of marinades! You can easily change the “theme” of a dinner by altering the marinade slightly or using a different marinade altogether! Time And Liquid Are Of The Essence Though marinating is easy, it requires a balance between time and ingredients, or your food may absorb too much or too little flavor. Judging marinating time depends upon the marinade’s flavor intensity and the food’s size and texture. As a rule of thumb — decrease marinating time and flavor intensity for any small portion or very tender, porous foods such as fish filets, mushrooms and eggplant; increase marinating time for any large portion or lesstender, thicker foods such as London broi! and round steak. Here are a few simple guidelines: • Marinate flaky fish filets in lightly-flavored marinades usually no longer than 30 minutes (thicker fish steaks, such as tuna or halibut, may be marinated for up to two hours.) • Pork ribs 2frid thick, less-tender cuts of beef should be marinated in a strong-flavored, moderately acidic marinade several hours or overnight. • Never marinate food longer than 24 hours or it will begin to break down and become spongy. • Expect to use 1/4 to 1/2 cup of marinade for every one to two pounds of food. Food Safety Considerations When you marinate, you are dealing with raw meat, poultry and fish, •vhich normally contain some bacteria. Therefore you need to remember ihese simple food safety precautions. • Always refrigerate food as they marinate. • Never use a metallic bowl to mix marinades. Acids in marinades may react with the metal. You can also use a plastic Ziploc bag for marinating food. • Boil reserve marinade before you use it as a basting or dipping sauce (or make additional marinade to use only as a sauce).
