Club's Flower Show Is 'Spectacular' By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock News Staff Writer The Rappahannock County Garden Club produced a spectacular flower show, last Saturday, and it was well worth the trip to the Washington Volunteer Fire Hall to see it. ' The theme of the show was A Tribute to Rappahannock County. It was amazing to jee so many varieties of stunning flowers and arrangements, and the interesting categories. According to Publicity Chairman Helen Platt, the design division paid homage to 9even aspects of life in our county. Winner Review of Class one, for the novice exhibitors, was Ruth Baumgardner, with a “Tribute to Springtime in the Blue Ridge.” Class two, “A Tribute to Our Heritage,” was won by Breezy Gannon.

An Award of Horticultural Excellence and an See Flowers, Page A-8 Election '95 Activity Picks Up in Spring Supervisor■ School Board, Sheriff Challengers Arrive By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News SlafT Writer With less than three weeks to go to get on the ballot for the November state and local elections, candidate activity has picked up. Roger Welch has filed for the Wakefield District seat on the Board of Supervisors. He will challenge Hubert Gilkey. Sam Snead is planning to file for the Piedmont District seat on the School Board. He will be opposing Dennis Wingfield. Gary Settle will challenge John Henry Woodward for the Sheriffs office. He won't officially begin his campaign until after his resignation from the State Police becomes official June 1. Tuesday, June 13 is the last day to file to get on the ballot. Registrar Nancy Leake reported last week that so far only Frances Foster had qualified among candidates for the Constitutional Officers, only Roger Welch had qualified for a seat on the Board of Supervisors, and only Paul Nichols from Wakefield District and Dennis Wingfield from Piedmont District had qualified for the county’s first School Board election. She said she will be in the office June 13 until 7 p.m., but she expects most candidates to qualify in the next two weeks and not push that deadline. The State Board of Elections in Richmond will furnish a packet of information with all the necessary forms for anxone wishing to run for these local offices. A packet can be requested by calling 800-552-9745. Ms. Leake said she has one packet which she can copy for those who decide to run too late to receive a packet by mail from Richmond. Candidates for Constitutional Officers must get signatures from 125 voters supporting their position on the ballot. Board of Supervisors and School Board candidates need only 50 signatures. Ms. Leake said rural route addresses are acceptable, but post office box addresses are not. However, she said she has been accepting some signatures with post office boxes when she knows the people are indeed county residents. Those signatures could be challenged, however, she said. With no voting machines in the county she is anticipating a long night in November, County voters will be facing at least three ballots, one for the General Assembly, one for constitutional officers, and one for Board of Supervisors and School Board. There may be a; fourth ballot if there are referendums on amending the state constitution, she noted. Mr. Welch said he is seeking the Wakefield District seat because “I see a lot of changes in Rappahannock, and I'm not sure we’re going in the right direction.” He said he made up his mind to run when he read that none of the current members would be opposed. He said there ‘ When people stay in the job too long, they become part of the system. ’ — Roger Welch is too much "good old boy politics” in county government. "When people stay in one job too long, they become part of the system,” Mr. Welch added. He said he is personally friendly with Mr. Gilkey and that his decisibn to seek a seat on the board is not related to the sludge suit filed against the county. His brother Dale Welch was one of the plaintiffs in that suit. He said the county must be “very careful” in planning for growth. “I like the rural nature of the county,” he said. “I want to see it remain that way...If you look at Culpeper, Fauquier and Warren (counties) you see disasters. There hajs not been proper planning....We can’t deny people the opportunity to live here, but we have to be very careful about growth....A stoplight and See Election, Page A-8 Planners Seek Public's 'Visions/ Reject Kellerco Proposal By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer „ The Planning Commission wants to know what citizens want included in the revised Comprehensive Plan. At the next meeting, June 21, the public will be invited to provide its “visions” of what the county should look like in cojayng years. The planners also adopted a resolution opposing the Kellerco road plan. It says: Resolved; That the Rappahannock County Planning Commission feels strongly that the current road system of the county is safe, efficient and adequate for any foreseeable, reasonable time-frame for planning and analysis. Be it further resolved: That any consideration of local road projects in and/or around the villages of the county be a subject for local, intensive planning efforts over time. There was extensive debate before this resolution was adopted. Stonewall-Havvthorn District representative Sharon Pierce suggested the Kellerco plan should be simply thrown in the trash. County Administrator John McCarthy said the issue had become contentious because many believe the plan reflected what the county wants to do. Louis G. “Butch” Zindel, who represents the Board of Zoning appeals on the Planning Commission, said, “The Comprehensive Plan needs to take transportation into account....To see this plan and say throw it away or adopt it is ridiculous.” Chairman Mike Massie said many feel there is a “hidden agenda to secure the right of way for roads that are of no benefit to the people of the county....Is it reasonable to say to people you can’t build a house there because 20 years from now there is going to tie a road there?” Mr. Zindel said, "If you do proper planning, you’ll have the leverage to say where they go." Piedmont District representative Tom Junk said that U.S. 522 is now four-laned from Front Royal to Hancock, Mary land. “If it becomes a major corridor, it will be taken out See Roads, Page A-8 Old Rag Bulletins * Revenue Office ■.

Mrs. Leathers, as director of county social services, learned last Wednesday that Rappahannock will be one of the first counties to implement the state’s new welfare reform policies. The Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District (PD9), which includes Rappahannock, Culpeper, Fauquier, Madison and Orange counties, was selected by the state as the location where the program will start July 1, if Virginia gets a waiver from the federal government to implement its ambitious welfare reform proposal. Throughout the state certain policies are to be changed starting July 1. Teen-aged mothers cannot qualify for Aid to Families with Dependent Children unless they are living at home and attending school. Mothers requesting assistance will be required to name the fathers of their children so the state can try to get support from the fathers, and there will be no additional funds for additional children who are bom while their mothers are on welfare. In PD9, in addition, AFDC recipients will have 90 days to find a job or they will be assigned to community service. They will only be eligible for welfare for two years. Mrs. Leathers said she had not received any direction from the state in how to implement any of these changes. She said she expects to be involved in a teleconference next weekend with directors of the five counties in the See Welfare, Page A-8 Rug Rats at Work THE RAPPAHANNOCK RUG-RAT ROAD RALLY SAT JUNE 3 ' HERE Rappahannock News Staff Photo Cindy Mahan Wearing painting smocks children from CCLC decorate a car to promote the rally.

Store Opens for Archery, Black Powder ; By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Ken Carter and Bob Smith are planning the grand opening at their Trading Post Sporting Goods for this Saturday, but in fact they quietly opened two weekends ago. The store located just west of Washington on the north side of U.S. 522-211 will specialize in goods for archers and black powder shooters. . But they will carry much more. The store will have a full line of casual menswear. There is also some jewelry and watches moved to the Rappahannock store from Mr. Carter’s Hartman’s Jewelers in Warrenton and suncatchers and perfume bottles made by Eric Kvames. Mr. Carter said he has these things in the store “so a man can bring his wife in here, and she will have something to look at.” Mr. Smith said he and Mr. Carter have been “hunting buddies” for years. They have frequently talked about running a sporting goods store together. “We got the opportunity to get the building, and it went from there,” he said. Mr. Carter said archery and black powder shooting are not restricted to the hunting season. They are the “fastest growing sports in the U.S. Payne Wins Recognition RCES fifth grader Tony Payne received an award for scoring in the top 40 percent in the Johns Hopkins University Center for Talented Youth competition. . . To qualify fifth graders had to score at or above the average for eighth and ninth graders on the SATtype test. . The awards ceremony was held at Episcopal High School in Alexandria. Correction The quotation attributed to Ed Barton in the news of the ARB meeting reported in last week’s Rappahannock News was actually made by Ray Gooch. The Rappahannock News regrets the error. Every weekend there is a tournament within an easy drive from here.” He said often whole families participate in the tournaments and only about half the tournament archers ever hunt with bows. Mr. Carter said they will not be carrying modem firearms. “That’s not the business I’m looking for,” but he also said that scopes will be allowed on black powder weapons this hunting season, and he will be carrying black powder rifles with scopes. This is far from Mr. Carter’s first venture into retail merchandising. He had four garages, a beauty salon and the jewelry store. He said all were successful businesses, but the garages, particularly, “were killing me. I was working 60 to 75 hours a week, six and a half days a week and just surviving. I sold them one at a time.” He still has the jewelry store and beauty salon. He lives in South Wales. Mr. Smith, who has lived in Sperryville for eight years, also has business experience. He runs Smith’s Drywall out of Centreville. They bought the building for the new store from the American Indian Council. “This is the first business I’ve had where I haven’t had to pay rent. It’s the greatest feeling,” Mr. Carter said. “To me this is not work.” They have already enclosed a porch area to be able to display more merchandise. The store will offer complete archery service and repair, and lessons in shooting as well as equipment for sale. Mr. Carter said they will carry bows from five major manufacturers of high quality equipment and will try to keep 50 to 60 bows in house at all times to show people. However, getting in the inventory has been something of a problem since manufacturers have a hard time keeping up with the demand. Mr. Carter said his first weekend was very successful. They sold 38 belts before they opened, and both Saturday and Sunday were good days. “I'm really tickled so far,” he said. “I’m in it for the long term,” he said. “I want it to pay the overhead and pay the bills, and I’ll have a good time.” Mr. Carter usually starts off opening the store on weekdays, and Mr. Smith comes in for the afternoons. They are both at the store during weekend days. “We’re both used to long hours. It won’t bother us,” Mr. Smith said. Trading Post Sporting Goods is open 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. until 6 p.m. Saturdays, and from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. Sundays.

The Board of Supervisors is considering whether to provide operating funds of the various fire departments and rescue squads. The members want to know whether the public supports taking on this additional responsibility with taxpayer provided funds and if so how they want to be taxed to pay for this. The Planning Commission, having mostly completed work on the first five chapters of the Comprehensive Plan, wants citizen input before embarking on the chapters that cover goals for the next five years. The first five chapters are made up mostly of statistics on what exists in the county now and trends over the past decades. The real meat and potatoes of the plan is coming up next. The superv isors will conduct a public hearing on the county budget and various tax rates at 7 p.m. on June 5 in the Courthouse. The Planning Commission wants people to provide their visions for the county!s future at its next meeting, at 7:30 p.m. on June 21, also in the Courthouse. It is increasingly difficult for the members of the county's fire and rescue squads to get the training required to keep and upgrade their skills, raise funds for ongoing operation and raise funds for expensive equipment to provide the best service possible. With all these demands on their time, the squads are having a hard time attracting new members and even in keeping the ones they have. •A recent meeting showed that large numbers of people can be mobilized to turn out for a meeting to say what they are against. It will be interesting to see if equal numbers will turn out to say what they are for. Voting Machines One item is dramatically absent from the county's proposed budget. State law requires that when a precinct has more than 750 voters it must have voting machines. Hampton District passed 750 voters last year. Jackson and Stonewall-Hawthom districts are not far behind. .'Wakefield District has two precincts and is therefore not close to the limit. It is illegal to divide One precinct into two just to get out of providing voting machines, but it is legal to do so for the convenience of the voters. Election judges face a day that begins shortly after 5 a.m. on election day and does not end until all the votes have been tallied and checked. W'ith three or four different ballots in next November’s election, the judges in Hampton District may not finish until well into Wednesday. Unless the local Board of Elections intends to split Hampton District, with some people voting at the Washington Eire Hall while others vote in the gymnasium of one of the schools, for example, thev need to add the cost of voting machines to their budget. If they do intend to so split the district, they need to add the cost of additional election judges to their budget. Pretending that this situation does not exist is irresponsible.

MARIE RIEDEL MARIE DAVIS Co-Chairpersons, Bloodmobile Welfare Reform Not Thought Through To the Editor: Rappahannock County is part of the first area of the state that will require able bodied welfare recipients to work in exchange for the benefits. The program begins here July 1, along with Fauquier, Madison, Orange and Culpeper counties. The program begins in the D.C. suburbs next April, and is scheduled to be phased in statew ide over four years. Welfare reform (or workfare) is a pet project of Gov. George Allen that is strongly supported by Rappahannock Del. Jay Kat/en. At first glance it looks simple and appealing: within 90 days welfare recipients must find a job or do community service. If they don’t, they lose benefits. But the program has more questions than answers, and neither Allen nor his often-time clone Kat/en seem to ha\e a clue as to,how this program can or will function. 1. For example, where will these jobs come from? There are not that many jobs available locally, particularly for unskilled workers. The county’s two largest private employers (Faith Mountain and Blueridge Technologies) and the largest public employer (Rappahannock School District) predominately require highly trained or professional workers. There are few or no openings for unskilled workers. But most welfare recipients have minimal job skills and education. What can they do, and who will want to hire them? And if they can’t find a job, what will they do for public service? Will we have a horde of welfare workers doing make-work picking up trash? Another vital question is how will this program be administered? Current social service employees can’t do it. They are already deluged with work, and don't have the time or training to find jobs. Does the state or county plan to hire additional social workers, rehabilitation counselors or employment experts? Is job training included? The questions go on. A car is a necessity for workers in Rappahannock County to get to the job and back. Many welfare recipients can’t afford a car. Will transportation be supplied? Welfare mothers will need day care for their children. Who will pay for day care when the mothers go to work? How can someone working for the minimum wage make enough to pay for transportation, child care and job related expenses? All this costs money to administer. Who pays for it? What sort of a monstrous and expensive bureaucracy is needed? Who will keep the records and watch over the public service trash pickers, making sure they put in the required hours and do a passable job? How much in tax money will it cost to find one person on welfare one job? The local welfare office has been given no guidelines, instructions, increased funds or additional staff. How can they possibly run this program under these conditions? And suppose nobody will hire the welfare recipient. What happens then? Do they and their children starve and freeze? The questions go on and on with no answers. Has anyone in Richmond thought this through? Apparently not. Welfare reform is an appealing buzz word and Allen and Katzen love to grandstand. But real solutions for real people seem to be beyond their grasp. The best they can do is to presentslavish ideology that is totally out of touch with reality. BRUCE SLOANE Sperryville Career Day Successful To the Editor: The 1995 RCHS Career Day Program was successfully completed. May 11. This is an effort by the guidance department to see that the most up-to date information concerning job hunting techniques and career opportunities are presented to juniors and especially graduating seniors. I wish to express my thanks to the people in the community who participate in Career Day. This year’s program attracted 27 skilled and professional workers from Rappahannock and surrounding areas. Persons who would like to share information about their jobs during the May 1996 Career Day Program are asked to call me at 987-8575. JAMES T. FUTRELL RCHS Director of Guidance 'Allen' Budget Vote Misrepresented To the Hditor: I am writing to balance the scales on the “Allen Budget Plan.” Mr. J. Kent Reeve (Rappahannock County Democratic Chairman) displays an appalling lack of knowledge of the state budget process. Informed Republican legislators did not vote for the budget that was presented as the “Allen Budget Plan” by Mr. Dickie Cranwell (House Majority Leader) as it contained no tax cuts and millions of unappropriated funds. The Democrats allowed five seconds of "debate” on the budget. Democrats in Richmond planned in December '94, before the past session of the General Assembly started, to oppose Governor Allen’s plans no matter how adversely it affected the commonwealth. Their play book proves this. Likewise, the fact that a CPA, Sen. Kevin Miller, is not on the Senate Finance Committee because he may know too much or that Del. Jay Katzen if appointed to a House Budget Committee would ask the uncomfortable questions and expose their plans. Do they feel these men will be too fair and independent and show no fear of the Democratic leadership? I think so. It is unfortunate that we must reduce our energies to the equivalent af childhood squabbles constantly pointing fingers and saying, “he did it first,” but this is the play book of the local Democrats. The Democrats in Richmond never intended to vote on an “Allen” plan with its tax cuts to families, economic growth, increased educational spending, and giving parents and school boards greater flexibility and choices for local public education. They just said, “No!” Virginia’s governor and its General Assembly acted to abolish parole, and then the Democratic controlled General Assembly refused to build any more than 25 percent of the prison space necessary to house the expected growth in prison attendance thereby creating mdre problems for some localities with jail overcrowding. Mr. Reeve has also referred to the tax cuts to families as $33 per year. This may have been true for some, but a tax cut is always more important than the fluff and fat of a “Dickie Cranwell budget.” I happen to agree with Gov. Allen, Sen. Kevin Miller, and Del. Jay Katzen that families know best how to spend their monies. Mr. Reeve and the Virginia Democrats he supports like their cousins up in “Big” Washington can’t tell the difference between a “cut" and slowing of the growth of spending on the various programs. Actually the funding for localities would have increased. Some have questioned the need for the tax and spending cuts the Governor suggested and have even claimed that Virginia has always been a tight-fisted state; but the facts are that during the.’80s Virginia govern ment spending rose more than the rate of inflation, more than growth in population, more than the growth of per capita income of Virginians and faster than the growth of Federal spending in the same time period. Gov. Allen’s economic growth plans would have increased the tax base for the state and those localities that participated in attracting new business that employ them. And before I have to defend myself later, let me remind the readers that the farmers in Rappahannock County are small businesses too. For the Democrats in the General Assembly to call the four page document an “Allen” budget when in reality the Governor’s proposals were inches thick is a hoax, a joke and a sick one. As for your unsubstantiated claims, no letter to the editor can change the truth, Mr. Reeve. Virginia Democrats are more concerned with feeding their egos and maintaining control of the budget process than doing the will of the people. It is my hope as the full story of this past session of the General Assembly unfolds that the participants- and their supporters of these acts of despotism by the Democrats will be rejected again at the polls. Then the prospect for honest change will be much brighter under Republican leadership. RONALD L. FRAZIER Amissville . Chairman, Rappahannock Republican Party

Taxes Did Not Stop Slaughter By JOHN GOOLRICK Virginians have never taken kindly to tax increases and it is significant that one of the most debated taxes of this century was pushed through largely by two men whose political careers had been devoted to keeping taxes low. That thought struck home a few weeks ago when I attended ceremonies at Germanna Community College in Orange County honoring former Congressman D. French Slaughter Jr. A building on the campus was named in honor of Slaughter during the ceremonies and a portrait commissioned by his former staff was unveiled. It was a high powered gathering and those attending included former Governors Mills Godwin and Gerry Baliles, U.S. Sen. John Warner, former Sen. Harry Byrd Jr. and Congressman Tom Bliley. It was Godwin who put the matter of taxes in perspective. He had been elected Governor in 1965 and was appalled at Virginia’s low ranking among the states in education — particularly higher education. Godwin and Slaughter, two students of state history, recalled that Thomas Jefferson had once proposed that a statewide system of junior colleges be established in order to broaden educational opportunities for Virginians. Under his plan, there would be a junior college within an hour’s travel of most everyone. However, the legislature didn’t want to increase taxes to pay for the proposal and it languished and died. Godwin and Slaughter, both stalwart members of the Byrd Organization, felt the time had come to do something dramatic to lift Virginia’s status in education and give more of her sons and daughters a chance to attend an institution of higher learning. They proposed the creation of a community college system to be financed by a statewide sales tax. As Godwin recalled, the very mention of new taxes set off instant alarm and howls of protest. Merchants felt the sales tax would be an odious device that would hurt their businesses despite evidence to the contrary in other states. Aided by other supporters, Godwin and Slaughter criss-crossed the state in favor of grass roots support for the proposal. Because of their impeccable conservative backgrounds, it was impossible for opponents of the sales tax to brand them as fiscally irresponsible liberals. In the end, proponents of the community college system won the day and Germanna was the first such college established. As he spoke, Godwin clearly conveyed a sense that he considered his role in creation of Jefferson’s dream of a junior college system as the most important achievement of his two terms as governor. His biggest regret was that French Slaughter, who was in the House of Delegates when his bill passed authorizing the system, could not attend the ceremonies because of ill health.

'Pathfinder' Cows Listed Elisabeth Jones of Sperryville and Scott Updike of Washington have been recognized nationally by the American Angus Association for having registered Angus cows included in the American Angus Association's 1995 Pathfinder Report. Ms. Jones has two cows in the listing and M.. Updike has one. Only 1,487 of the more than 27,000 members of the American Angus Association are represented in this year’s report, according to Richard Spader, executive vice president of the American Angus Association with headquarters in St. Joseph, Mo. The Pathfinder Program identifies superior Angus cows based upon recorded performance traits that are economically important to efficient beef production. These traits include regular calving and heavy weaning weights, reports John Crouch, director of performance programs for the American Angus Association. All registered Angus cows that meet the strict Pathfinder standards are listed, along with their owners, in the Pathfinder Report which is published annually by the American Association. The 1995 Pathfinder Report lists 5,855 individual cows. It is published in the May issue of the Angus Journal and extra copies are available from the American Angus Association. The largest number of Pathfinder cows from a single herd this year is 71, and several hundred breeders have a single cow that qualifies for the exclusive listing. ^OTirF.

Three Violate Probation ji By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock New* SlafT Writer Three men were on the court docket for Rappahannock County Circuit Court last week for cases having to do w ith violation of probation. Jimmy Wayne Nicholson, 35, of Castleton, was denied entry into the CDI program, which is a supervised probation program entered into in lieu of jail time. A letter from the case manager of the CDI program, Katherine Heritage, explained that Mr. Nicholson was turned down for the program because of his past failure to benefit from probation, because of his extensive criminal record, and “sixteen years of non-compliance w ith the laws of the Commonwealth.” Because he has been turned down for CDI, Mr. Nicholson now faces the jail sentence of three years and nine months he was sentenced to in April for violation of probation.

Mr. Nicholson checked into the cost for the program, and said rt would cost him between $1,800 and $2,000. Mr. Reynolds felt that hiS client had met the two-prong test, which allows the court to modify a sentence, in showing that for Mr. Nicholson spending time in Boxwood would be in the public interest, and that mitigating circumstances had been shown by Mr. Nicholson taking it upon himself to check into Boxwood and pay for it himself. Judge Robertson said he felt that Mr. Nicholson had not shown mitigating circumstances, and said, “I question whether 1 have authority to modify his sentence at this time.” He said that Mr. Nicholson would hav^ tp serve his sentence in Rappahannock and then go to Boxwood. .MrNicholson has been transferred to,the Rappahannock County Jail to finish out his sentence from Culpeper. . ■' A capias was issued for Timothy Duane Reid, 32, of Front Royal and Tony Capies, 28, of Washington, D.C.

Cub Scout Pack Hosts First Raingutter Regatta By LIBET PIERSON Bear Den Leader Errant gusts of wind threatened to capsize the sleek sailboats as Cub Scout Pack 123 held their First Annual Raingutter Regatta on May 6. Preparations for the Regatta began weeks ago when each boy received a kit containing a block of balsa wood, a dowel, a sail, rubber and keel. The scouts were responsible for designing, building and finishing their own regatta entry. Their efforts resulted in a colorful flotilla, with many sails emblazoned with dragons, bears, the skull and cross bones or the captain’s name. The race course consisted of two close-ended raingutters set side by side atop a pair of sawhorses. Leveled and filled with water these narrow channels proved more challenging than they first appeared. The races Were run in heats with each boy providing the “wind” to fill the sail of his bdat. When the air was calm, the boats sailed smoothly along the gutters — but this was the exception, rather than the rule. Mother Nature livened up the proceedings by sending erratic breezes which made reaching the finish line without incident a rare occurrence. Cross winds capsized many boats, and strong headwinds sometimes blew the diminutive vessels backwards. Despite adversity, the novice sea captains showed great courage and determination in sailing their boats through the narrow channels to the finish line. The following boys took top honors in the dens: Tiger Den — 1st, Matthew Elliot; 2nd, Jeremy Miller; 3rd, Devin Sherwood. Wolf Den— 1st, Jonathan Miller; 2nd, Max Haynes; 3rd, Michael Thiel. Bear Den — 1st, Daniel Pierson. Webejos I — 1st, D.J. Frye; 2nd, Arlen Sherwood; 3rd, Joey Pullen. Webelos II, 1st, Jonathan Clatterbuck; 2nd, Philip Thomas. The first place boat from each dean them competed in a runoff for the Pack Championship. The final race results were: 1st, D.J. Frye; 2nd, Jonathan Miller; 3rd, Daniel Pierson. Monarchs Win Opener By DAVID CLANAGAN Coach Rappahannock Monarch* The Rappahannock Monarchs defeated New Market 23 to 4 on Sunday in the season opener. Rapp’s offense looked very good with Stoney Frye leading the way with a home run, two singles and seven RBI’s. Bill Atkins had three singles, and Vincent Aylor had two doubles and a single. If I had to pick an MVP for Sunday’s game, it would go to Leroy North who had a fine day pitching, going the distance and striking out 15.

Both runners qualified in the regional meet held last Friday at the University of Virginia. Holly qualified for both the 1600m and 3200m, but will be competing only in the 3200m run in the state meet, said Coach David van de Graaff, because of a much better time in that race. Mark Jenkins will compete in the 1600m run. The meet will be held at UVA this Saturday at 9 a.m. The soccer team claimed two more wins last week, defeating Clarke County on Tuesday, 7-1, and Brentsville on Friday, 1-0. This Tuesday night the team lost a heartbreaker to Central in the first Bull Run District Soccer Tournament. In the other game Brentsville defeated Clarke County and will face Central for the championship Friday. Of last week’s game. Coach Uli Maeyer said that after playing sloppy defense in the first half against Clarke, he gave his team a pep talk and that really helped. By the last 20 minutes of the game, he put in the players off the bench. He told the forwards to shoot only outside the box in the last ten minutes of the game, because he said he does not believe in driving up the score. The win over Brentsville on Friday was especially nice because Brentsville had been undefeated in the district before this game. “We played a very good game with tight defense. It was a well balanced game," said Coach Maeyer. With ten minutes left in the scoreless game, Jonathan Maeyep took the ball from midfield, got intd the box and fired a shot. It wa) deflected and Eddie Sause put it it) for the winning goal with an assist from Rob Reeve. J Following the Brentsville game, Coach Maeyer received gifts of over 100 potatoes from spectators, signify* ing the soccer field which he calls a “potato field.” “We had a great har* vest,” he said. The soccer team ended the season with a record of eight wins, five loss* es and two ties. The team was unde* feated on the “potato field” at home, i Check Out Our Specialists.

From Page A-l of our hands,” he said and suggested that rather than opposing such things as the western bypass, the county should be supporting it as a way to take pressure off Rappahannock. He said VDOT would probably just take out one side of Woodville rather than by-passing it. “ff we haven’t planned they will go the cheapest way,” he said. ;■* Ms. Pierce said the way to consider by-passes is in village studies. For several years the planners have intend ed to start studies of each of the villages, but that effort has not yet begun. Mr. McCarthy said the Comprehensive Plan does call for development in and around the villages to keep it out of agricultural land. Mr. Massie suggested the planners adopt a resolution saying there is no need for widening roads in the county. Mr. McCarthy said if the planners want to protect agriculture in the county they will have to accept growth near the villages and consider providing water, sewer and roads. “The choice will come. Do you want to wipe out one side of the village or keep the village.

Ms. Pierce suggested the planners adopt a resolution “that says we hated the map and w'e will deal with bypasses in village study plans.” Mr. McCarthy drafted the resolution that was unanimously adopted. Mr. Massie said the next step in the process of developing the Comprehensive Plan “is the good stuff. We’ll advertise for people to come to the next meeting and talk about what they want for the county. I think a lot of people say, ‘we like the county and don’t want it to change much.’ We’ve tried hard to get input, but we need to try harder.

What could be more important than • keeping kids in school?” He said, “We spend a lot of money in this county. I’m not sure we properly manage it.” He said he was concerned that most votes on the Board of Supervisors are unanimous. “I don’t want to critique specific issues,” he said, “but there are some things you can’t compromise on.” Mr. Welch works for General Electric as a technical instructor based in Charlottesville.

Mrs. Leathers noted that the coun-. ty has only about 30 cases on AFDC; and said it wouldn’t take a large number of changes to reflect a huge percentage of change. She said she plans to get together with local employers “to see what help we can get and try to develop I things.” ; She added, “I do think it’s kind of neat our planning district is one of the early birds. Usually we haven’t been in that position.” By SHARON KILPATRICK ► Flowers From Page A-*l * Award of Merit went to Frances Russell for a very large white iris.

' • Community News f' • Obituaries Rappahannock News • Real Estate • Classifieds WEDNESDAY, MAY 24, 1995 wmmmm t ri £ Mayhugh's Is County's Only Chain Store Varied Merchandise Includes Pet Foods> Hardware By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer ; Mayhugh’s is one of the newer Stores in the county, having opened its doors less than nine years ago. However, the Mayhugh’s family of stores began in 1912, when the original one was opened in Greenwich in Fauquier County. It was started by Frank Mayhugh, the great-grandfather of Michael Mayhugh, the manager of the Mayhugh’s in Amissville. When Frank Mayhugh died, his sons Gordon and David took over the business. This week Mayhugh’s is holding a grand opening for their fourth store, in Midland. They also have a store in New Baltimore. The store is large and employs many from the community: Lois Settle, Melody Settle, Sandy Sealock, Mary Magee, Etta Estes and Robert Grigsby. They are always pleasant and willing to help. •• Mayhugh’s is chock full of everything from fishing supplies and ammunition to pantyhose and sewing kits. For spring cleaning, there is a Rug Doctor carpet cleaner For rent, vacuum bags, and an aisle of cleaning supplies. It also has a decent-sized hardware department equipped with sandpaper, power saw blades, and much more. For gardeners there is garden hose and garden gloves, and of course, seeds for planting. If in the mood for a picnic, all the supplies are here too. Some helpful items for large picnics are the huge jars of mustard, mayonnaise, relish, sweet chips and ketchup. If having a pasta party, they have the # 10 cans of tomato paste for sale too. For that picnic or party, don’t forget the film; Kodak fun-saver cameras are here too. They also have a large supply of soft drinks, beer, wine and wine coolers. And Famous Amos chocolate chip cookies. The deli offers hot and cold sandwiches made to order all day long, along with breakfast sandwiches. There are also hot dogs, half smokes, sausage links, hot chicken sandwiches, cheeseburgers, and steak and cheese. Serve yourself coffee, and Mayhugh’s is the county’s newest country store. 'Rick' Hart To Present Stone Cutters Movie The Stone Cutters, by academy award winners Marjorie Hunt and Paul Wagner, will be the bonus feature film on Friday, June 2, starting at 8 p.m. in the Theatre on Gay Street in Washington sponsored by RAAC. Frederick Hart will present this splendid film that will make the visualization of the vanishing art of stone carving an unforgettable experience. It is especially appropriate for Mr. Hart to offer his comments and insights and show slides of his works, as he was an apprentice, in his early years, and acknowledges an invaluable training he received from these master carvers. Among others, the film chronicles the works of Master Stone carver *, Roger Morigi, who devoted 28 years of his artistically prolific life to carvings on the Washington National Cathedral. It will bring to life the enthusiasm and devotion that he and other talented artists brought to this country. A cadre of expert carvers such as Morigi, Vincenzo Palumbo, Plunkett, Frank Zic and Constantine Seferlis are single-handedly defying the notion that the industrial and post industrial age have totally extinguished the desire in people to build buildings by hand. Do not miss this once in a lifetime opportunity to see this academy award-winning homage to The Stone Cutters'. lit Shine' Benefit Free Clinic £ On June 10 at 7:30 p.m. the Fauquier Free Clinic will hold JEShine,” an evening of song, dance &nd fun for the entire family. “Shine” $5 the clinic’s second annual showcase jpf area talent and proceeds will benethe Free Clinic.

In previous years, the local volunteer fire department ran the event, but RAAC agreed that its charter to promote the arts and skills of the area, and its philosophy of service to the community, made this a perfect event for its sponsorship. In an effort to feature local artists with quality pieces, the vendor committee of RAAC has set new requirements for participation in the annual craft show on Gay Street. All artists must submit an application and photos of their work. All entries are being judged by the members of the RAAC vendor committee to insure that artists of the Piedmont area are given priority and that only homemade articles will be on display. RAAC is accepting applications until June 15 from artists who wish to display their crafts such as pottery/ceramics, lithography, jewelry, watercolors/oil paints aery lies, textiles/needlework and basketweaving. For application and additional information, contact Eileen Dav at 675-319. One of the artists already selected to display crafts is Merril Strange of Viewtown who handpaints designs on dinner plates, platters, pitchers, bowls, mugs and picture frames. Since 1988, Mrs. Strange has worked almost exclusively with handpainted designs on locally purchased pottery, which is decorated and then fired in her own large kiln at her home. Mrs. Strange is especially proud of her latest achievements — place plates for Topper’s Restaurant at the Wauwinet House of Nantucket, its only four-star restaurant. She recently completed an entire bathroom and shower for a client who “wanted to be entirely underwater” in her bathroom. “All four walls are covered with, schools of fish and marine animals, making it look like a cutaway of the ocean,” she said. This was a perfect project of Mrs. Strange, who likes to combine the practical with the whimsical. In addition to the newly-focused craft show at the Fourth of July celebration, other activities planned1 include: a special BBQ dinner, as well as other home cooked food during the day, performing artists, patriotic events, a bicycle parade for children 12 and under in mid-afternoon and a live band leading up to the spectacular fireworks at dark. The site for the fireworks, around the pond at Avon Hall on Middle Street and is the perfect ending for a very traditional Fourth of July celebration.

He was in his coveralls painting, but said he’d put his Suit on. This couple^ now here, with such a cause, Told the preacher to just marr> them in his coveralls. Vows now exchanged, the preacher done, Clyde and Lillie became one. . „ They journeyed back to the hollows again, This time though there were wife and man. Climbing the hills to his parent’s home to spend their first night together. Does love last forever? Well, Sixty Years should be prool that love can abide. Something’s been the glue between Lillie and Clyde. Now in their seventies, and wrinkled by times own hand, They’re here today in Flint Hill still wife and husband. Now, congratulations on youi Sixty Years, Coming this far together through joys and fears. Being companions for so long is indeed worthy or praise, Love...folks will see you through to the last days.

How best can we honor them? Certainly, it is important to hold ceremonies, to place flowers on the graves of those near and dear to us. These are public displays of private grief. There is another way that we can honor these great men and women, however, that is in upholding the principles that they gave “the last full measure" to defend. Study the Constitution - here we find j the principles upon which this nation was founded. Then make every j effort to live by these principles. j This Memorial Day pay tribute to the bravSHnen and women who have died for America and continue through the year to honor them by | upholding those values that they died to protect.

W r cuncsuaj, iviay Ap't, i 77J Grains of Truth About Muffins By HELEN SMITH Extension Agent, Home Economics Muffins are a quick bread made of batter, containing egg, often sweetened and served hot. Muffins are available from most bakers, grocery stores and restaurants as well as easy to make at home. One of the fastest growing products in the market are the vacuum-packaged mini-muffins sold at convenience and grocery stores. Storage .Store cooled muffins well covered or ;n closed container. To freeze, place completely cooled muffins in airtight container or wrap well in moisture and vapor proof material. Freeze up to two months. For defrosting, allow muffins to thaw for 15 to 20 minutes, then heat in slow oven (200 degrees) for about 10 minutes. To microwave, arrange frozen baked muffins in a circle on a dinner plate; use the defrost setting and check frequently so they do not become hot and tough. Nutritional Value Muffins are high in complex carbohydrates and B vitamins. They are often a good source of fiber if they contain bran, fruits, or vegetables. Many commercial and scratch recipes are high in fat, often contain five to eight grams per muffin. New commercial formulas for restaurants and hospitals contain little to no fat and will be advertised as such. Watch for recipes with three grams of fat or less. Make Them Healthier When making muffins from scratch, here are some pointers to make them healthier: • Substitute one halt of the all purpose flour called for a recipe with whole wheat flower or rolled oats; or substitute one fourth of it with bran. You will increase vitamins, minerals and fiber. And once you become accustomed to the healthier flavor and texture, you may want to use an even larger proportion of whole w'heat flour. • The use of eggs adds very little cholesterol to muffins (only about 25 milligrams per muffin). However, if this is still a concern, you may use two egg whites or an egg substitute for each egg needed. DEP'T STORE BUY-OUT! “Leading Maker” SWIMSUITS Values from *34 to *76 Hundreds of styles!

Preparation • Preheat overt and have muffins pans greased (including nonstick pans) or paper muffin cups in place. Grease top of muffin pan when filling more than three-fourth full. Once the batter is mixed, spoon into the cups and bake immediately. • Never over-mix batter. Combine dry ingredients and liquid ingredients separately but well, then stir together just until dry ingredients are moistened — about 20 strokes. Some lumps will remain. Gently and speedily fold in fruits or nuts. • Fill muffin cups half full, threefourths full or full, depending on desired muffin size. Use mini (1 1/2ounce), standard (2-to-4-ounce) or jumbo (6-to-8-ounce), standard (2-to4-ounce) or jumbo (6-to-8-ounce) muffin pans. Add a few tablespoons water to any empty muffin cups to ensure even baking. • Muffins are fully baked when center springs back when lightly touched or when a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 to 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and cool on a wire rack. Troubleshooting • Tops are peaked and not rounded: Muffins were baked too long or at too high a temperature. • Muffin is excessively shrunken or dry: Too little batter was placed in the tin; or, muffins were baked too long or at too high a temperature. • Muffin texture (inside grain) has tunnels: Batter was over-mixed. Also, oven or batter temperature may have been too high. • Texture is soggy: Batter was over-mixed or muffin was underbaked. • Tops are flat and smooth: Oven temperature was too low; not enough batter was placed in the tin; or muffins were baked in paper liners. • Crust is too light: Muffins have been under-baked or baked at too low temperature.
