Longer Classes Proposed for High School On Septic Upgrade: 'We'll Do It Ourselves' By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer The School Board approved a plan to move into alternate-day block scheduling at the county high school for the 1996-97 school year. During the upcoming year time will be devoted to developing a schedule, estimating costs and training teachers. A committee of teachers, administrators and community members studied moving from the current schedule of seven periods a day every day to four longer periods each day. After learning about and visiting other schools, some with semester block schedules and some with alternateday schedules, the committee recommended the high school try the alternate day approach. Students take four classes one day and four different classap the next, for a total of eight classes. dpairman Beverly Massie noted that a semester plan, in which students complete four classes the first semester and four more the second semester, would have been very difficult during the 1993-94 school year when so many days were lost during the second semester. She said it will be very important to prepare parents for the change as well as the students and teachers. Stonewall-Hawthom District representative John Tole said, “I’m very hopeful about this approach....If you change the way you do things, you change the atmosphere so the substance can change.” He said it should provide more time for both teachers and students to prepare foi classes but added it will require more work of teachers. “You can’t just fake it for 90 minutes,” he said. School Superintendent David Gangel said he and othti members of the administration had met with representatives of Dewberry and Davis, the engineering firm thal designed the plans for modifying the elementary school sewer system. When bids were opened the lowest was $279,000, he ' ■At, >' See "SchoolV Page A-« -■ • *** r ■ -■ x" 1 a ' x' ■ . ~ 4 :4;.y- _ Old Rag Bulletins Old Rag Meeting The National Park Service has scheduled a public meeting from 5 to 7 p.m. on Thursday, June 29, at the temporary parking area near Nethers to discuss proposals for dealing with the overuse of the Old Rag Mountain area and trail. .

Weatherman Tells Graduates , ' . i -V » f - , V Many Scholarships Help College Bound ■ Weatherman Bob Ryan told 64 Rappahannock County High School graduates Saturday morning, “Treasure what you found here, and you will leave the world more beautiful than you found it.” He spoke of rainbows and starlight and Rappahannock County’s special beauty. No two people see exactly the same rainbow, he said. Each sees the colors refracted by different raindrops. The pieces of stars that people see more clearly here than other places may have started their journey at the time of the dinosaurs, he said. “This piece of a star is caught by you and is now a part of you.” He said he sees here a perfect balance between man and nature. ‘“This is God’s country’ is an overused phrase, but not in Rappahannock County,” he said. He said he grew up in the Hudson River Valley of New York See Graduate, Page A-6 Election '95 Many New Candidates Qualified f By CINDY MAHAN ’ Rappahanncxfk News Staff Writer ' ^ On Tuesday, the last possible day to add any names tc( the ballot for this fall’s elections, two more decided to ruii for the School Board and one more for the Board of Supervisors.

However, they went ahead with the public hearing on the recently advertised budget. Diane Bruce took them line by line through the budget, asking them what each line was expected to be used for and frequently urging them not to spend the money. In many cases Mayor Stewart Willis said the line items had been carried over from previous budgets and he did not anticipate spending as much as the budget included. See Council, Page A-8 VDOT Reopens Western Bypass Discussion f Miller Says Public Being Shut Out By SANDY HUME Rappahannock News StafT Writer The Virginia Department of Transportation is reopening public discussions of the controversial western bypass of Washington, D.C., a proposal that it put on indefinite hold five years ago when it drew heated resistance from area residents and only limited interest from Maryland transportation officials. VDOT officials consider the project, which in one of its original forms would clip southern Fauquier, necessary to relieve growing congestion around Washington. It would, they believe, free those traveling up and down the East Coast from heading into the metropolitan area, and relieve regional travelers of the same. “VDOT recognizes that there's a lot of congestion in Northern Virginia, a lot of suburb to suburb traffic — not all into D.C.,” said R.C. Lockwood, VDOT’s transportation planning engineer. “There's a greater need for travel around Washington, both inter-regional and interstate travel. This would be for the person going from Michigan to South Carolina, as well as for the person going, let's say, from Stafford to Dulles ... It would let you go around instead of going into Washington and out on a radial, like Interstate 66.” The difficulty for VDOT has been finding an acceptable route through western Virginia and a crossing of the Potomac. Maryland effectively killed a proposal for an eastern bypass in 1990, said Mr. See Bypass,Page A-8 Three From County in 1995 WCDS Class By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Three Rappahannock County residents were among the 10 boys and three girls graduated from Wakefield Country Day School Sunday evening.

She also received the school’s science award. jj-, Elizabeth Nugent a^R^received the advanced honors classical-scientific diploma. She will attend the College of William and Mary. jf Timpthy Inglis received the classical diploma. He will attend Washington and Jefferson College in Washington, Pa. A sudden storm drove the ceremony inside from the garden. Del. Jay Katzen, R31st District, the graduation speaker, said he had long wanted to be asked to address a graduating class at Wakefield. His middle son graduated from the school. “I have wonderful memories of this hall,” he said. The “common thread” of a Wakefield education, he said, is a “commitment to leadership and lifelong excellence.” He said one role of private schools is to offer flexibility, good student-teacher ratios and a broadened teacher pool. “There is no such thing as a value-free education,” he said, adding the education at Wakefield is based on “religious and moral principals and gentlemanly conduct.” He urged the graduates to be committed to service to others, to be true to themselves and have courage to withstand pressures and “choose the right side even if it may not be the ‘correct’ one” Welby Lynn recounted memories of the school that date back to her earliest ‘consciousness. She told of visiting the school as a toddler with her father and watching him kneel beside small children to listen to them and treat them with respect. “The lessons in life should be as dear as any facts we have learned,” she said. She said she owed the school and her parents "all my successes. From you 1 have learned excellence.” v } U ;— -----I Rappahannock News Staff Photo b> Sharon Kilpatrick Elizabeth Nugent, Tim Inglis and Welby Lynn await their gradua* tion from Wakefield Country Day School Sunday evening.

Sewer Line from Addition Reconnected By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Ncwj Staff Writer Last week' the school administration learned the sewer line from the new addition to the elementary school was inadvertently connected to a pipe designed to carry rain water off the school roof not the main sewer line. As a result sewage from the addition has been discharging into a small stream that runs behind the play area instead of into the sewage lagoon. According to Richard Smith, learning environment coordinator, last Monday Donna Chabot and Troy Jenkins had come from the Sperryviile sewer plant to the school to clean the sewer line, which was backed up. They found a manhole cover in the play area and checked it. They realized it was a storm water line not the sewer line but were puzzled because liquid seemed to be traveling through the it when there was no rain. They found the sewer line and cleaned it. Mr. Smith said Ms. Chabot returned Tuesday to explore further and found the sewage draining into a normally dry creek bed. The school system shut off use of the water in the addition, marked the play area off limits for children and contacted the state Department of Environmental Quality, State Health Department, architect and contractor for the project. On Wednesday notices were also sent out to parents. State officials told the school administration they had taken proper measures, but also to add lime to the areas where sewage had been improperly discharging. On Saturday Kenbridge Construction, contractor for the addition project, arranged to have an excavating subcontractor come to the school and dig up the line where it connects from the addition to the storm water pipe and also the sewer pipe. School Superintendent David Gangel said the storm water pipe did not show on drawings available to the contractor. However, it was about 10 feet farther from the main section of the school, it was much larger than the sewer line, and, of course, it shouldn’t have smelled like sewage. The connection was made while school was out last summer, but the school and its bathrooms are used to some extent all year long. There was some concern that there might not be enough drop for the gravity sewer line, but on Monday the school system was given the green light to connect the sewer line from the addition to the main sewer line. On Tuesday the lines were connected and only finish work remained, Mr. Smith told the School Board Tuesday night.

Autopsy Report Not Yet Ready On Tuesday, Commonwealth Attorney Peter Luke and Sheriff John Henry Woodward contacted the Medical Examiner’s Office in Washington, D.C. regarding the autopsy done on Ernie Fletcher in early March. They were told that it would be at least another 30 days before the “results of the autopsy are available. week’s meeting. The election took place because Mrs. Kevis’s term as chairman expired in March. The vote for Mr. Barton was unanimous. The board also voted to have Patrick O’Connell remain as secretary for the board. Two applications for signs were approved for Susan Parrish for Cabin Fever Books and Patti Mullan’s for her stained glass studio, Sundance. Both businesses are in the same building on Gay Street. Phyllis Marriott, proprietor of the Foster-Harris House, was not on the agenda, but ARB member Dwight Matthews said he felt that her existing application should be amended because he noticed mild discrepancies in a ne.w window in her house. He said that the window was different from the drawings the ARB had approved. Though cases pot on the agenda are generally not heard, the members decided to make the change on the existing application, and approved it.

June Brings Car Wrecks By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock News Staff Writer There was a rash of traffic accidents in the county early this month. Eleven year-old J.D. Wines of Chester Gap was run over by a trailer in the Sperryville Firemens’ Parade on the evening of June 1. According to his mother Debbie Wines, J.D. was trying to climb up onto the Chester Gap Hillbillies float, which he supposed to ride on, when his shoe apparently got caught and he was dragged under the float. She said the two tires ran over his back, left leg and ankle, and that he has tire tracks up his back. He also has a badly bruised chest and some neck and face bruises. An accident involving Clyde Lillard, 88, of Flint Hill and Greg Thomas Williams, 20, of Flint Hill, resulted in Mr. Lillard being charged by State Trooper Sean Knick with failure to give the right of way. The accident took place June 1, on Route 522 in Flint Hill, .2 mile north of Route 647. Apparently Mr. Lillard attempted to make a left turn which led his 1985 Buick into the path of Mr. Williams’ 1991 Ford pickup. Mr. Lillard was injured in the accident but no further information was available. Kevin Dewayne Jolliffe, 19, of Amissville, was involved in a one-person accident when his 1990 2-door Chevrolet ran off the right edge of the road on U.S. 211, .7 mile west of Route 612 in Sperryville, the night of June 2. Sgt. Fridley, of the Warrenton office, said that the vehicle skidded across the highway after running off the road, and ended up in a Field, upside-down. Mr. Jolliffe was injured in the accident. He was charged with reckless driving by State Trooper Charles Moore. Also on the evening of June 1, a female juvenile operating a 1993 Toyota 4-door ran off the road after swerving to avoid hitting an animal. The accident happened on U.S; 211 a half mile west of Route 626 near Washington. The car skidded across the highway and struck an embankment. On June 10, two vehicles collided on Route 626 in Rock Mills, .1 mile east of Route 622. According to Sgt. Fridley, the, vehicles, driven by William H. Laimbeer, 37, and a male juvenile, both from Castleton, entered a curve at the same time and struck each other. On June 11, Milton C. Hudson, 31, of Washington, was charged with failing to yield the right of way in an accident which occurred at the intersection of U.S. 211 and Route 626 in Washington. According to Sgt. Fridley, Mr. Hudson was pulling out onto U.S. 211 from Route 626 when he was struck by a 1989 BMW driven by Linden J. Vonezchel, 45, of Woodville. Ms. Vonezchel was injured.

This is a statewide program in which plumbers, electricians and heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) tradesmen, and gas-fitters within the trades of plumbing and HVAC, are required to meet established entry standards prior to being permitted to work for the public in those trades. This program will be mandatory' for tradesmen working in the Commonwealth. Helpers and assistants who work for tradesmen who are certified are not required to be certified. This is a significant change from the present administration of the program. Currently, tradesmen in some of Virginia’s counties and cities, including Rappahannock County, must have master or journeyman certifications to perform their work. These certifications have in the past been issued either by local government or the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development. Under the new law they will be required to have a master or journeyman card issued by the Board for Contractors, which is administered by, the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation, in order to obtain building or work permits from any local building official. ;All tradesmen who currently have a master or journeyman card issued by the Department of Housing and Community Development or their .local county govememt will need to exchange their current card for the new card issued by the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation. This “card swap” will extend through July 1. Anyone needing information on the new Tradesman Certification Program is urged to contact the Board for Contractors, 3600 West Broad Street, Richmond, VA 23230-4917 or call (804) 367-2945. -ATTENTION!!!

All county voters will have at least three choices on their ballots. There will be a hard-fought contest between incumbent Republican Del. Jay Katzen and Democratic nominee Sue Scheer for the 31 st House of Delegates seat. While Rappahannock County is a small proportion of that district, which includes most of Fauquier County’ and about half of" Warren County, Rappahannock voters might well make the difference. The local race for Sheriff promises to be extremely testy, but incumbent John Henry Woodward seeking his fourth term and challenger Gary Settle are keeping their gloves on for now. If county voters are lucky their supporters will follow their example. All voters will have at least two choices in the county’s first School Board election. It will be interesting to see whether or not some of these candidates attempt to run as a slate. In addition two of the county’s districts will have races between incumbent members of the Board of Supervisors and challengers. It would be reassuring if some of these candidates who have never attended meetings of the bodies they are asking voters to elect them to would start attending the meetings and listening to discussion of the issues they will be voting on if they are elected. Jackson District School Board aspirant Ron Makela has missed few meetings since the year began. This past Tuesday evening Elizabeth Whetzel, who is seeking the Hampton District seat, also attended. It is easy enough to have opinions when no facts interfere. Having informed opinions will take a little more work. * None of the other School Board candidates have attended meetings since the election process began, and neither of the challengers in the Board of Supervisors election have been regulars at the meetings. Frankly it seems strange that the process of deciding to seek elected office did not begin with finding out more about the procedures and issues confronting these boards as it did for Mr. Makela. The sudden influx of candidates for service on a public school board whose children attend private schools is also amazing. Seven Things To Do 1. Buy Lemonade from any kid who is selling. ■* 2.

Letters to the Editor Help Form The Vision To the Editor: I would like to encourage all community members who have an interest in the well-being of Rappahannock to participate in some way in the forthcoming “envisioning” process which is being initiated at 7:30 p.m. on June 21 in the county courthouse with the Planning Commission. If unable to attend’this event, please write and/or call members of the Planning Commission, the Board of Supervisors and the Zoning Administration office with ideas, concerns and,suggestions. I would also like to applaud the efforts of community members, organizations, elected and appointed officials and others from outside the immediate Rappahannock community who have, over the years and especially in recent weeks, put much of their time, energy, heart and soul into preserving the unique character of Rappahannock County. Thank goodness your heads have not been buried in the sand! Two “unofficial” event which are also taking place on the 21st and to which all are invited are an informal bring-your-own lunch at the park from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. to talk about envisioning ideas like bike trails, walking trails and other recreational and educational programs and a sunrise silent prayer and meditation for the harmony and well-being of the community on Red Oak Mountain at 5:30 a.m. Call or stop by the Ragged Mountain Resource Center for more information call 675-1879 HUNT HARRIS Castleton Support Settle To the Editor: I would like to take this opportunity to express my thanks for the many phone calls and words of support received in the past months as 1 considered conducting a campaign for this November Sheriffs election. Since my retirement in March I have enjoyed the extra time spent with my wife and family and have decided at this time not to commit myself to the time and rigors of conducting a campaign. However, this decision does not change my belief that our county needs a change of leadership in the Sheriffs Office. Several weeks ago 1 became aware of Gary Settle’s intention to challenge Sheriff Woodward. Gary and I recently met for lunch and it is clear to me that he and 1 share many views on positive changes needed in our Sheriffs Department. 1 am convinced that it will take an individual with Gary’s background, training and commitment to implement these changes. I encourage all those who had voiced their support for me to devote their efforts towards Gary’s election in November. It is my intention to assist him in any way I cap. Once again, many thanks for all your encouragement and support over the past months. ROGER L. CORDANI Amissville Rally Supporters Thanked To the Editor: Two years ago, 1 placed my son, Alec, at the Child Care and Learning Center. For me, it was a difficult time, both financially and emotionally. For Alec, daycare was a total change of venue. The Center warmly welcomed us into the fold — the staff provided tips and techniques on child rearing, assurances that my child was “normal” and sometimes just a shoulder to cry on — but most importantly, time and time again they showed that they loved Alec. For these reasons, I felt it was important to give something back to the CCLC, and conceived the idea of the Rappahannock-Rug-Rat Road Rally. This year’s Rally and FunFest was a great success! We had 29 cars. r over 70 participants and grossed over $1,000! I would like to thank the following Sponsors for their generous contributions of Rally and FunFest prizes: The Inn at Little Washington, Middleton Inn, Bleu Rock Inn, Howard & Lisa Swaim, Farfelu Vineyard, High on the Hog, 4 & 20 Blackbirds, Todd Carilse and the Berryville Roller Rink, Sperryville Emporium, Hackley’s Store, Faith Mountain, Skyline Treasures, Country Elegance, The Flint Hill Store, Baldwin’s Store and Quicke Mart, Settles Store, Pendleton Seafood and Catering, Cabin Fever Book Store, Country Cafe, Appetite Repair Shop, Videoland of Gainesville and Warrenton, The Pepsi Distribution Plant of Warrenton and Mark and Shirley Knowles. 1 would also like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the many volunteers who threw themselves into gear and helped out. Special thanks goes to the core members of the committee without whom this fundraiser would never have taken place: Christine Keller, Tom Pendleton, Sherry Hamill-Huff and Tammy Earhart. I appreciate ?" the hard work and hours that you dedicated to this fundraiser! PATTY McSWEENEY R5 and FunFest Chairman Gymkhana A Success To the Editor: I would like to take advantage of this forum to thank all those who helped make the Flint Hill Volunteer Fire Company’s 2nd Annual Gymkhana a success. Thanks first and foremost to David and Dudley Semmes for not only providing the beautiful grounds and a tent, but for performing as judge and ringmaster, too! Thanks to Julia for helping me put the whole thing together; to Kim for being coerced into being secretary; to Teddie for volunteering and for keeping statistics; to Frank for announcing; to Tom for doing the food; to Medora, John, Rebecca and Martha Lou for generously sharing their ponies; to all the by-standers who got cajoled into competing and of course, to all the regular entrants. We all had a great time and will certainly plan to do another one. We cleared better than $325 for the Fire Department I thank you all again so much. SHERRY HAMILL-HUFF Flint Hill Reflections At Graduation The big yellow buses reluctantly gave them up like Joeys coming forth from the pouches of mother kangaroos. Not new bom...but very young and innocent. They wiggled out, wide-eyed with anticipation, attired in brightly hued “back-to-school” clothes fresh off the racks of countless stores; their faces scrubbed so clean that they shone like a grandfather’s bald pate. Guardian angels with non-toxic markers took them under their wings, labeled them with bus numbers, and delivered them safely to the protecting arms of their teachers. Once gathered together, they started their trek down strange hallways, following along like ducklings all in a row. In bright rooms with lilliputian furniture and gaily colored decorations, their thirteen year odyssey began. Many have met the challenges of time. Their armor has a dent here and there, but nothing that can’t be hammered out. There is even an occasional spot Of rust... from tears, perhaps, or maybe even sweat. Like Jacks beanstalk, they have shot up toward the sky, transformed into young adults by magic genes instead of magic beans. They have sailed our seas, weathered our storms, mastered our waves, and ridden out our calms. And now we’ll give them back... but not to the big yellow buses that spawned them at our portals so many years ago. We’ll give them to the world... trusting that they are prepared to make a difference. Memories of them will haunt our hearts like friendly ghosts, and we will leave our hallmark on their minds and personalities as surely as fine silver is stamped by the craftsman... an invisible symbol of quality and excellence.

Scheer Meets With Citizens By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Both the candidates for the 31st District seat in the House of Delegates were in the county this past weekend. ■> Incumbent Republican Jay Katzen addressed the graduating class at Wakefield Country Day School Sunday evening. Democratic challenger Sue Scheer met with county citizens at a party at Bill and Linda Dietel’s Over Jordan Farm Saturday evening. Hers was the more partisan speech, which was normal given the different circumstances. She said she got interested in seeking elective office when the Disney Company proposed to put a theme park in western Prince William County. “I'm a conservationist,” she said. “I have a 30-year record of believing in sustainable growth. We need to help counties attract businesses that will employ people to the benefit of the community, not overwhelm it.” She said Del. Katzen voted against his district 60 percent of the time. She accused him and Gov. George Allen of leading an “assault on public education” including higher education. “Quality public education is the basis of our society,” she said. “Charter schools are not the answer,” she added, predicting they will be “right-wing religious schools that will not help society.” She noted that these efforts had been defeated in the 1995 session, but she said, “This will all come back next year, and who will you be represented by?” She said the governor “with the backing” of Del. Katzen has gone after the conservationists and the environment, libraries and historic buildings. “We have to be aware of what is happening and reverse it,” she said. Mrs. Scheer said the district needs someone who “will represent us. He represents the governor.” Public Transit Losing Out on Capitol Hill By JULIE HOLT 9 Associate Director Virginia Citizen Action A funny thing happened on the way to a budget bill in the House of Representatives last month when it came to the tussle over federal transportation funding. The promised “across-the-board” approach to spending cuts got tossed aside, and the highway lobby came out a big winner, while commuters, train riders and we, the taxpayers, ended up on the bottom. Road builders, the oil industry and the other highway interests have been smarting since passage of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Enhancement Act (1STEA) five years ago. Aimed at reducing traffic congestion and air pollution this bipartisan law wisely equalizes new federal investment funds for public transportation and highway construction. Yet the budget plan adopted by the House and now working its way through the appropriations process where Rep. Frank Wolf, R-lOth District, chairs the transportation subcommittee that will mark up the bill next Wednesday would undo that balanced, joint approach. Unbelievably, nearly 60 percent of all proposed cuts in transportation assistance would be taken from public transportation and Amtrak, even through such funding only constitutes 15 percent of the U.S. Department of Transportation budget. On the other hand, highway subsidies — which add up to 52 percent of the DOT’s funds — would end up absorbing just one-quarter of the $24.4 billion in proposed budget reductions. Those highway cuts that are included come mainly from “Highway Demonstration” projects, such as the ill-advised Corridor H — projects that Congress often imposes on local officials, whether they are needed or not. Rep. Frank Wolf, played a key role in putting the House on record in opposition to this longstanding pork-barrel process. Like many such business-as-usual deals in Washington, the special interest power-brokers won out at the taxpayer’s expense. Money cut from public transportation will only end up costing average Americans more in higher rail and bus fares, local tax hikes, and wasted hours in traffic jams spent sucking up car exhaust. Independent experts like Elmer Johnson, former executive vice-president of General Motors, say that our nation is losing at least $100 billion a year from traffic congestion. “The one policy we haven’t tried to reduce that,” Mr. Johnson notes, “is less auto use.” To do that, we need alternatives like buses and commuter rail; that is the only way to make our highways function more efficiently, and to cut economic waste and air pollution. • The House leadership’s plan would reduce the federal share of capital assistance for public transportation projects from 80 percent to 50 percent requiring state and local governments to pick up the rest. Highway projects, however, would still receive the full 80 percent of their funding from federal sources. Federal matching funds to Washington METRO, for example, could fall by 46 percent in one year, reducing service reliability and quality. • The House leadership’s plan would phase out all federal operating assistance to public transportation systems over four years, reducing assistance to Virginia by 25 percent annually. * The House leadership’s plan eliminates all federal support to improve our nation’s passenger railroads. Intercity rail is a very costeffective way to travel. For example, a recent Virginia Railway Express study found that, over 20 years, it costs $284 million less to build, maintain and operate VRE service than the equivalent lane of interstate highway mileage for people driving alone. Tight budgets require us to be hardhearted when it comes to spending our federal dollars. The most costeffective use of our transportation budget is a balanced policy that invests in trains, buses and public transit as well as new roads. Reduction in DOT funds should be spread equally among highway and public transportation assistance. Any other approach is simply penny-wise and pound-foolish.

Old Dominion Politics Robb Still Following Moderate Path By JOHN GOjOLRICK In a bit of overreaction, I wrote a column after last fall’s senatorial election saying that the coalition that was crucial to Charles Robb’s re-election would hold increasing sway over him. I must say from all indications I was WTong. The 104th Congress, of course, is just five months old and has been one of the most eventful ever. Yet based on the evidence of that quarter-year, Senator Robb has been voting pretty much in the same moderate-conservative manner of the past. Even as Governor of Virginia, Robb remained staunchly conservative on fiscal matters, but gravitated toward the center — and some would say the center-left — on social issues. For instance, he has been pro choice for years and has made no bones about it. He has also been among those Democratic Senators who favor a Balanced Budget Amendment. I did not expect Robb to go down the line with the Republican Contract with America because a number of its parts simply do not square with his philosophy. He sought re-election as a moderate-conservative Democrat running against Republican Ollie North whose political philosophy is rock bottom conservative on both fiscal and social issues of the day. I simply thought that the Senator in fighting for his political life might be far more beholden to a number of interest groups identified with liberal causes than he has been. I should have known better since during all of Robb’s political career he has never quite been accepted by either conservatives or liberals as one of them. He has always been a low profile senator who has worked diligently behind the scenes to protect the state’s military interests and the national defense in general. These days he has immersed himself more and more in the intricate business of foreign affairs. That is not very exciting to state voters, but it is critical work that has to be done in a world where geopolitical realities must be faced. Interestingly, Robb now has five and a half years remaining on his second Senate term and has survived some of the worst political bumps any politician could ever experience. He deserves to be judged now on the basis of the votes he casts as a member of the United States Senate from Virginia. While he is the junior senator from the state, if the groups that sought to defeat him last fall have their way and manage to beat Republican Senator John Warner he would become the senior senator. Once gain, the law of unintended consequences would come into play. 1 should hasten to add that there are thousands of Virginia conservatives who don’t like Robb’s votes on certain issues of a social nature or dealing with labor or education. But they are the kind of votes he was casting long before the re-election contest of 1994 and should come as no surprise.

Of vision, he said. You ve got to know where you are going. If you don’t know, any road will get you there, but where will you be?” Of mission, he urged them to have the mission of continuing to improve. He said parents, schools and the community are the bows and the children are the arrows. “Fly through, hit your mark, and may God bless you,” he concluded. School Board Chairman Beverly Massie told the graduates now is the time to reap the harvest of 13 years of schooling. She urged them to share the harvest. Salutatorian Derek Deczewitz said, “Ours is a class like no other. We can do it all.” He said graduates are wondering what their futures will hold, and wonder if they are “prepared enough.

Drive Safely Through Construction Zones High on the list of things that go together is the combination of warm weather and highway construction. Unfortunately, the type of weather that most people consider the best for highway travel also is the best for road construction and repair. With the amount of summer travel and ongoing highway work peaking during the next few weeks, the Virginia Department of Transportation urges motorists to drive defensively. After decreasing steadily over a seven-year period, the number of fatalities in highway construction and maintenance work areas rebounded dramatically in 1994. Last year, 22 people were killed and 308 were injured in traffic accident in highway work zones statewide. A total of 34 accidents occurred in work zones ip the nine-county Culpeper transportation district during 1994 resulting in injuries to 17 persons. However, there were no work zone-related fatalities in the Culpeper district during 1994. So far this year, no work zone fatalities have been reported. “Operating a motor vehicle requires full-time attention every second a driver is behind the wheel,” says David R. Gehr, Virginia’s transportation commissioner. “And, when a work zone is encountered, that means even more concentration is needed. At VDOT, we are constantly evaluating new safety equipment, warning devices and work zone designs. However, our best efforts cannot compensate for that split-second of driver inattention that often results in an accident. We can’t repeat our message to motorists often enough; work zones are dangerous so, when traveling through one, increase your level of alertness and decrease your rate of speed.” VDOT, with the third largest state-maintained highway system in the nation expects to have more than 600 highway projects under way this summer. These work zones will cause those familiar orange cones to appear on secondary, primary and interstate highways in every area of the state. There will be numerous construction work zones in the Culpeper district during this year, especially during the late spring, summer and early fall months and the associated warmer temperatures. Two long-term construction work zones in the district are situated on major highways. These are the U.S. 29 improvement project under way along a two-mile stretch of U.S. 29 immediately north of Charlottesville, and the just-beginning U.S. 17-spur project in the town of Warrenton and Fauquier County.

► Council From Page A-l Ms. Bruce said she could find about $40,000 in unneeded expenditures in the budget. “We are fortunate to have the revenues,” she said. “Everyone is saying they want taxes cut back. 1 hate to see the town finding ways to spend money because the tax money comes to us so easily.” She noted that most of the taxes the town receives are paid by customers of The Inn who do not live in town or even in Rappahannock County. “We have two choices,” she said. “Cut the meals and lodging tax, or if that is not palatable, put it in a reserve fund and not. spend it. It should be earmarked for something important. It could be used for an emergency, but it should be set aside for a sewer system.” Ms. Bruce- serves on the committee looking into the possibility of having a sewer system for the town. She said, “We have no idea what it would cost.” She said it could be as high as $3 million, and to borrow money for a sewer system the town would be expected to put up 20 percent. “If we save $40,000 a year, in 10 years we will have $400,000,” she said with additional funds from interest earned on the savings. She said her estimate of $40,000 in savings included some of the $13,000 designated for the Washington Volunteer Fire Department for capital expenses. She suggested the town put some money aside for purchasing a new fire truck; Mayor Willis said, “Every year we don’t spend the budget. We were able to put $72,000 into the water system up front for new meters and taps.” Members of council generally agreed they could put more into reserves. Member Ray Gooch said he agreed it is important for the council to commit to eventually installing a sewer system. He said sewer is “at the top of the list” of concerns Trinity Episcopal Church has about staying in town. By the end of the meeting council members agreed to cut various line items, to set aside $5,000 in a reserve for a new fire truck and ask the board of directors of the fire department for information on what they want an additional $8,000 for. They had agreed to set aside at least $15,000 in a reserve for the sewer system, and to put more in a general fund reserve. Following an extensive/discussion of the budget, the council adopted resolutions to seTl bonds and accept a grant for extensions to the water system. ► Bypass From Page A-I Lockwood, and its resistance to any entrance into Maryland other than on the U.S. 15 corridor at Point of Rocks, is complicating the western version. “Maryland has basically taken a very hard stand that they can only support a crossing at Point of Rocks,” he said. “Loudoun thinks that there should be a study of eastern entrances.” Now preparing a major new study of the entire concept, VDOT can explore a number of different alternatives, which could include a bypass terminating at Route 7 without ever crossing the Potomac. According to Mr. Lockwood, Maryland “is going to cooperate, but not contribute finan dally” to the study. j Critics of the first proposal are alarmed by what appears to be the quiet resuscitation of an old adversary. Speaking to the Times Community Newspapers Editorial Board last Friday, representatives of the Piedmont Environmental Council, Citizens for Fauquier County, the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection and the Surface Transportation Policy Project questioned both the viability of the project and VDOT’s methods in reviving it. It is a time, they said, of decreasing revenues for local governments and increasing transportation costs. Against that backdrop, the group cast VDOT as stealthily attempting to breath life into a project that could have grave environmental and financial consequences. The bypass, they said, could literally pave the way for further development in the Occoquan watershed without solving the core traffic troubles, all at a price tag in the billions. “I’m the first one to agree that we’ve got significant transportation problems. The question is, is what’s proposed going to solve them?” asked Chris Miller, formerly of the PEC, now the assistant director for federal affairs for the Surface Transportation Policy Project. “There’s never been a satisfactory demonstration of need that’s convinced anybody other than those who have proposed the project.” The driving force behind the new bypass campaign, Mr. Miller suspects, is a development community that senses the time is right. “They need significant investment in a new highway in order to open up areas that currently aren’t under intensive residential or commercial development — the western part of the Virginia suburbs,” he said. With a Republican governor and a Republican majority in Congress, "they figure that the current political Virginia Housing Development Authority Bonds coupon Kate •Aa-1 rated by Moody’s • AA+ rated by Standard and Poor's •Priced at par.

Then you have a situation where the transportation problems are significantly bad enough in the public’s eye that any solution is likely to be viewed as progress.” Mr. Lockwood admits that “publicly it looks like everything’s been on the back burner,” but he insists that the need for a bypass has weighed on VDOT officials for some time. “We’ve privately been concerned about it all along,” he said. “VDOT has never lost sight of the fact that we needed to look at both an eastern and western bypass.” VDOT initiated a review more than a year ago, according to Mr. Lockwood, and hired a consultant in January to begin poring over previous data. Still, to Mr. Miller it all smacks of behind the scenes maneuvering he considers typical of state transportation officials. The Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act — known as ISTEA, or “Ice-Tea” — explicitly requires among other things that the public be involved in the transportation planning process. Mr. Miller charges that Gov. Allen, Secretary of Transportation Robert Martinez and other officials in the Department of Transportation disdain the public involvement provi-# sions required by ISTEA and are “spearheading a national effort to repeal” the law. “VDOT has consciously withheld information and has directed its consultants to truncate public involvement,” he said, in explaining the slow response to the reappearance of the bypass proposal. “Nobody knows about it.” VDOT plans public information meetings around the area next week, beginning Monday, June 19 at P.B. Smith Elementary School on Route 605, from 4 to 8 p.m. “That’s when we’re restarting up the public participation process,” Mr. Lockwood said. ► Election From Page A-l Whetzel is a vegetable and fruit farmer who also works with the Literacy Volunteers.

The planned change will include drawing down the sewage lagoon, removing sludge collected there, installing a liner and then installing a Lemna system. The system uses duckweed held in place by a series of baffles over much of the lagoon to remove nitrogen from the sewage before it is aerated, chlorinated, and dechlorinated and released into a stream. The school system has about $250,000 available for the project, but the school administration had hoped to use those funds also for other school projects such as installing lights at the student parking lot at the high school and improvements to the high school track and soccer field. Dr. Gangel said the engineering firm did not think the low' bid could be negotiated much lower, so he recommended the School Board reject all the bids for installing the system and act as the general contractor for the project itself. He said, “I think we can do it for $175,000." The board approved his recommendation. Several parents of next year’s fifth graders attended the meeting concerned because plans for the coming year involved having only three sections of fifth grade. Assistant Superintendent Mary Ann Biggs reported that after studying the staff needs for next year it will be possible to hire a teacher for a fourth section of fifth grade. At the end of the school year there were 92 students in fourth grade. That class has been in four sections during all their years in elementary school. Dr. Gangel reported on his visit to the Edgecumbe Conference in Sitka Alaska. He said the conference was organized, by students at Edgecumbe High School, a boarding school for ^Native American students from throughout Alaska. He attended the conference as one of the speakers, but he said he was “humbled" by what he saw at that high school and eager to try to apply some of the concepts used there to the county high school. One project at the high school involves working with the business community to develop and market products. One year the class sold smoked salmon to Japan. Next year they plan to provide one-day delivery of fresh seafood. Dr. Gangel said he plans to pilot a similar class at the high school next year.

Among local artists, Jennifer. Greene will be showing her handmade jewelry and Indian jewelry and carvings; Eric and Davette Kvarnes will have on display handweaving, glass and watercolors; and Stephanie Nova will be displaying macrame jewelry embellished with semi-precious stones. Anne Newbold (Newbie) Richardson, a professional costume historian and textile conservator from Alexandria, said she is looking forward to being a part of this year's celebration. Her booth will have on display period costumes and furniture for dolls sized to Fit the popular 18 inch American Girl Doll Collection from the Pleasant Company. She said she offers “historically accurate outfits designed to teach as well as provide hours of creative play.” Each outfit, she explained, is individually handcrafted in fabrics and trims evocative of the period it represents. She has written a book entitled “The Clothes That Children Wore,” an illustrated history of costume for young people. In it, she tells and illustrates what children wore in 1774, 1854, 1904 and 1944. Richardson said she is a consultant to small house museums, historic preservation groups, and needlework guilds. She said she worked on various historic preservation projects, including the research and interior design of Woodlawn Farm in St. Mary’s County, Md. which won the grand prize for historic preservation from the National Trust in 1990. Also on display in Richardson’s booth will be custom crafted trunks, chests, beds and storage boxes which can be used for doll beds, doll carryalls, doll chests or, as Richardson said, as hobby chests for people like herself w ho do needlework. One of her boxes is the Pennsylvania Brides Box, circa 1760, which is an historically accurate reproduction storage chest which doubles as a small end table. This year’s Fourth of July celebration is being coordinated by the Rappahannock Association for the Arts and Community (RAAC). According to Eileen Day, co-chairperson of the RAAC vendor committee, nearly 40 artists and crafts people have signed up to display their work this year. “RAAC would like to remind our visitors once more that the S2 per car or $1 per person entry fee covers the expenditures necessary to stage this event,” said Fawn Evenson, a RAAC board member and manager of publicity for the Fourth of July event. RAAC must pay for all the things necessary to ensure a smooth running, large celebration. This fee covers everything from portable sanitation facilities for the thousands of guests, to the postage and publicity necessary to promote it for the many community-based, nonprofit organizations that will be raising money for their various causes that day.

Seventh Grade Grads Party By NAOMI SMOOT Rappahannock News Summer Intern After eight years of hard work and studying the RCMS class of 2000 has begun their venture into high school where they will work harder and study longer. To celebrate the end of their elementary school careers the parents of the 7th grade graduating class sponsored a party for them. The event took place at the Washington Fire Hall from 8-11 p.m. last Friday night. Those who attended enjoyed music provided by the OKs. The guests included 45 to 50 students, parents of students who will be in the eighth grade next year and three of their teachers from this year. There was also a mystery guest, a woman wearing pink stockings and a mask. The group did the hokey-pokey, the limbo, and some occasional head banging. A few students slow danced while still others found the need to return to the ‘80s and break dance. Some of the other students sat and relaxed. Chad Heddleston, one of the students at the gala, even received a ride upon the shoulders of one of the other guests. The festivities were a success and, according to Cheryl Fairbrother, one of the organizers of the event. “Everyone had a great time,” she said. Great Meadow 4th Planned A large Fourth of July celebration is again being planned for Great Meadow. Gates open at 2 p.m., and activities are planned through a fireworks show choreographed to music at dark. Hayrides, pony racing for junior riders beginning at 6 p.m., tethered balloon rides, a moon bounce, face painting, children’s field games, live bands, craft exhibits and the Fauquier County 4-H petting zoo are some of the activities planned. Foods including steak and cheese, pit beef and turkey, hamburger, soft fee cream, cotton candy and more will be on site to tempt every palette. Five air shows including sky diving by the U.S. Army’s Golden Knights, wing walking and daring aerobatics will thrill spectators beginning after 6 p.m. Admission is $20 per car in advance, $30 at the gate. Jefferson Boxes, reserved viewing boxes in front of Summer House, are available for $130 and include a 12 by 12 foot box with two benches and four chairs and a Members Hill car parking pass. Proceeds from the day go toward making possible free year-round use of Great Meadow by non-profit community groups. The Belle of Amherst Photo courtesy of Wendy Weinberg Arena Stage’s Tana Hicken plays America’s recluse poet Emily Dickinson at The Theatre on Gay Street. Showtime is at 8:00 p.m. this Saturday. For reservations or information call 675-1253. Music Man Tryouts Scheduled Windmore Foundation for the Arts is pleased to announce the dates for the upcoming musical production of Meredith Willson’s The Music Man. Audition dates are at 2 p.m. on Saturday June 24 and Sunday, June 25 and at 6 p.m. on Monday, June 26 at the Culpeper County High School. Auditions will consist of readings and singing from the Music man script. The performances will take place at the Culpeper County High School on Nov. 3, 4, 5, 10 and 11. For more information call 547-2555. “People have been stopping me on the street for months now asking about auditions, I’m glad we’ve finally set a date,” said Stafford. “The Music Man really touches a chord in people. No pun intended. It is the quintessential American musical. People walk out of the theatre humming and singing "76 Trombones” or “Marian the Librarian” or “Lida Rose.” That is why I chose to direct it.” Stafford has more than a passing interest in this particular show, “I come from middle American having been bom in Ohio, but interestingly enough my mother is from Iowa. I still have a lot of family there. Music Man takes place in Iowa. I even saw a cousin perform in The Music Man while I was visiting him in Iowa. So you can see show much it means to me on many different levels.” Stafford was last involved in a Windmore production when she per formed in Love Letters Valentine’s Day week with Jo Lenig. “I love to perform in dramas and some comedies and definitely period pieces, but I am not a singer so I don't have compelling reason to be in this. That helps. I don’t feel conflicted by my desire to perform. I can’t wait to get started on the directing of it. I expect I’ll be wanting to perform after I’ve taken a couple months off when The Music Man is finished. It takes a lot of energy to put something like this together. Just ask Grahame Henson!” Henson directed the last full scale musical Windmore had done in 1993. Oliver! was a huge success. “I hope I can repeat Grahame’s success. He was able to pull in performers and audiences from as far away as Manassas and Fredericksburg. Musicals have almost a cult following in that musical performers will go a long way to be in one and aficionados will go a long way to see one. They are very satisfying to both performer and audience member.” Anyone between the ages of 9 and 90 interested in working on The Music Man is encouraged to come to auditions. “We need lots of people to work on this show'. The cast alone consists of nearly 50 people. We’ll still need make-up people, stage crew, etc. Auditions were scheduled at the beginning of the summer primarily so the costumers can get started because they have such a big job. All I need is people who are willing to work hard and have a little fun too."

He had just left on a missions trip to Moldova, a small country bordering the Ukraine and Romania. Fortunately, the quake was not in his area. At a time when many wonder what kind of kids we’re turning out of our schools, it's refreshing to know that many are anxious to serve others — not all of them are selfish and selfindulgent. Sean's community is proud of him. He has dedicated his life to helping others. Wayland was graduated from Rappahannock County High School in 1988. He was senior class president and valedictorian. He played soccer and ran cross country. He was a member of the high school band. He received a Bachelor of Science degree in 1992 from Virginia Tech where he majored in Psychology and English. While at Virginia Tech he became interested in Campus Crusade for Christ. Upon graduation he joined the Campus Crusade staff at the University of Virginia, he has working with students there, sharing the good news of God’s grace to help them meet life’s challenges. He has spoken at different area churches of his work with Campus Crusade. Also, he has worked with Campus Crusade on special assignments in different places, including Philadelphia, Daytona Beach and Colorado on spring breaks and during summer. Sean looks forward to sharing his Moldova experience upon his return end of June. / Wayland’s first trip overseas was three summers ago when he spent six weeks in the Soviet Union, where the people had been oppressed for nearly 70 years by Communism. Several changes have occurred since then, including a name change, The Confederation of Independent States. Sean says, “Doors have opened up to the gospel and incredible numbers of people have responded by putting their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. With an intense enthusiasm, these people have embraced their new religious freedom. That’s why I want to go back, to disciple and encouraged these people in their new found faith.” Wayland left May 22 to co-lead a team of eight students for a six-week missions trip to Moldova, a tiny agricultural republic which broke away from Russia when Communism began to crumble. In order to go, Sean had to raise about $4,000 for the trip. He greatly appreciates everyone who helped him. both financially and prayerfully. Sean is endeavoring to fulfill the scripture in Act 1:8 “...you shall be My witnesses...and even to the remotest part of the earth.” To correspond with Sean Wayland, write to him at his home address: 39 Herman Judy Lane. Viewtown, Va. 22746 or in Charlottesville at 307 Glade Lane. Charlottesville, VA 22901-1372, where he returns in August. His family and friends are praying for his safe return and wish him a successful crusade.

They leave home early each morning and come back late, often tired. Their toil in the work places of the world provides shelter, food, clothes, education and a great deal of happiness...

Homemakers Share Recipes From International Dinner By HELEN W. SMITH ExteasMMi Agent, Home Economics The Rappahannock Extension Homemaker Clubs held their International Dinner on June 5 at the Amissville Baptist Church. Following dinner Marie Davis, who has hosted a high school exchange student from Spain in 1993 and traveled to Spain in 1994, presented a program on Spain, its history, geography, culture and customs. Modem Spanish cuisine has been profoundly influenced by the Moors, who occupied Spain for 700 years. The Moors, a cultured and sophisticated people, brought technological as well as culinary expertise to Spain’s primarily peasant population. For example, the Moors brought irrigation to Spain and introduced the cultivation of rice, now a staple in any Spanish the cultivation of rice, now a staple in any Spanish meal. Spain’s popular Arroz Con Polio (Chicken with Rice) is delicious served with an orange and onion salad, and caramel custard for dessert. r Typical Spanish food includes fresh vegetables, meat, eggs, chicken, and fish. Most fried foods are cooked in olive oil. Breakfast is generally a light meal of coffee or hot chocolate, bread and jam. or sometimes churros (a batter maddof flour and butter, HOME ECONOMICS deep-fried and sprinkled with sugar). A substantial meal is eaten at about 2 p.m. usually including soup, a salad, a dish consisting of some kind of fish, a main dish and fresh fruit. Adults usually drink wine with their meals and children drink mineral water or soft drinks. There is always plenty of bread (French style). At 5 or 6 p.m. Spaniards eat a snack (merienda), usually a sandwich (bocadillo), or sweet bread or crackers with tea or hot milk. Dinner is usually at 9 or 10 p.m. and is not as large as the midday meal. Common dinner foods include soup and a tortilla espanola (omelet with potatoes and onions). Each region also has it own specialities, including seafoods, ham and pork sausages, lamb stew, roasted meats, gazpacho (cold vegetable soup), paella (rich with fish, seafood and/or meat), Arros negre (rice with calamar ink), Cocido (Castillian soup), and a wide variety of other foods. Arroz Con Polio 1 (3 to 3 1/2-pound) chicken cut up paprika salt and pepper 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 medium onions, chopped 1 clove garlic, minced 1 bay leaf 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper 1/4 teaspoon saffron 1 (13 1/2-ounce) can chicken broth 1 cup rice 1 tomato, peeled and chopped 1 (10-ounce) package frozen green peas 1 cup sliced green olives 1 (4-ounce) jar pimiento, sliced Wash chicken and pat dry with paper towels; sprinkle with paprika, salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a 4or 6-quart pressure cooker. Brown chicken a few pieces at a time; set aside. Saute onions and garlic until tender. Return all chicken to pressure cooker; add bay leaf, red pepper, saffron and chicken broth. Close pressure cooker cover securely. Place pressure regulator on vent pipe. Cook for 8 minutes at 15 pounds pressure. Cook pressure cooker at once. Do not attempt to remove cover until pres sure is completely reduced. Remove chicken and stir in rice, tomato, green peas, sliced olives and pimiento. Return chicken to pressure cooker. Close pressure cooker cover securely. Place pressure regulator on vent pipe. Cook for 0 minutes (bring pressure cooker up to 15 pounds pressure and turn off heat). Let pressure drop of its own accord. Make 4 to 6 servings. Gazpacho Gazpacho is made in many ways, but always includes tomatoes and green peppers — both native to the Western Hemisphere. Some food historians believe the soup originated in Latin America (it is popular in Mexico today), but Gazpacho truly rose to fame in Spain, where each city takes pride in its own version of the dish. 6 servings (about 1/2 cup each) 4 slices bread, tom into pieces 4 large ripe tomatoes, chopped 2 medium cucumbers, chopped 1 medium green pepper, chopped 1 medium onion, chopped 1 cup water 1/4 cup olive or vegetable oil 1/3 cup red wine vinegar 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped 2 teaspoons salt 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper Mix bread, 3/4 of the tomatoes, 1/2 of the cucumber, 1/4 of the green pepper, 1/2 of the onion, the water and the oil in large bowl. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour. Place half the mixture in blender container. Cover and blend on high speed 8 seconds. Repeat with remaining mixture. Stir in vinegar, garlic, salt, cumin and pepper. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours. Place remaining chopped vegetables in small bowls. Cover and refrigerate; serve as accompaniments.

► Recipes From Page B-4 fasting as doughnuts are to Americans. For an invigorating winter refresher, try them with hot chocolate after an outing in the snow. About 24 cullers Vegetable oil 1 cup water 1/2 cup margarine or butter 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 cup all-purpose flour 3 eggs 1/4 cup sugar 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon Heat oil (1 to 1 1/2 inches) to 360 degrees. Heat water, margarine and salt to rolling boil in 3 quart saucepan; stir in flour. Stir vigorously over low heat until mixture forms a ball, about 1 minutes; remove from heat. Beat in eggs all at once; continue beating until smooth. Spoon mixture into decorators’ tube with large star tip. Squeeze 1 inch strips of dough into hot oil. Fry 3 or 4 strips at a time until golden brown, turning once, about 2 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. Mix sugar and cinnamon; roll crullers in sugar mixture. Spanish Potato Omelet The Spanish word for omelet is tortilla — but in Spain, the tortilla bears no resemblances at all to the Mexican tortilla. It is more like a fried “egg pie,” cut into wedges before serving. 4 servings 6 to 7 slices bacon, cut into 1-inch - pieces , 1 medium potato, cut into 1/2inch cubes 1 medium onion, chopped 6 eggs , 3/4 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon pepper Parsley Fry bacon in 10-inch skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon and drain, reserving 4 tablespoons bacon fat in skillet. Cook and stir potato and onion until potato is golden brown and tender about 10 minutes. Beat eggs with salt and pepper. Stir bacon into potato mixture; add eggs. Cover and cook over low heat until eggs are set and light brown on bottom, about 10 minutes. Cut into wedges to serve; garnish with parsley. Paella The pride of Spain’s Costa Brava (the rugged Mediterranean cost of southeastern Spain). Paella derives its name from the shallow two-handled dish in which it is served. 8 to 10 servings 1/4 cup olive or vegetable oil 1 to 1 1/2 pounds broiler-fryer chicken pieces 1 medium onion, chopped 3 cups water 1 1/2 cups uncooked regular rice 1 can (16 ounces) tomatoes 2 teaspoons salt 1 tablespoon paprika 1 tablespoon instant chicken bouillon 1/2 teaspoon pepper 1/4 teaspoon saffron or ground turmeric 1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper 1 pound clean raw shrimp 1 can (24 ounces) steamed claims in shells, drained 1 can (15 ounces) artichoke hearts, drained and cut up 1 package (10 ounces) frozen peas, thawed 1 jar (2 ounces) sliced pimiento, drained Heat oil in Dutch oven until hot. Cook chicken over medium heat until brown on all sides, about 15 minutes. Remove chicken. Cook and stir onion and garlic in oil until onion is tender. Drain fat from Dutch oven. Stir in water, rice, tomatoes, salt, paprika, bouillon, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, saffron on and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper; add chicken. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover; simmer 20 minutes. Stir shrimp and clams into chicken mixture. Cover and simmer 5 minutes. Add artichoke hearts and peas; cover and heat until hot, 5 to 10 minutes. Serve in paella pan or large shallow baking dish; garnish with pimiento. Caramel Custard (Flan) 4 servings 1/2 cup sugar 3 eggs, slightly beaten 1 can (13 ounces) evaporated milk (1 2/3 cups) 1/3 cup sugar 2 teaspoons vanilla 1/8 teaspoon salt Heat 1/2 cup sugar in heavy 1quart saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until melted and golden brown. Divide syrup among four 6ounce custard cups; rotate cups to coat bottoms. Allow syrup to harden in cups about 5 minutes. Mix remaining ingredients; pour into custard cups. Place cups in square pan, 9x9x2 inches on oven rack. Pour very hot water into pan to within 1/2 inch of tops of cups. Bake in 350 degree oven until knife inserted halfway between center and edges comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Immediately remove from water. Serve warm, or refrigerate and unmold at serving time if desired.

SMITH Extension Agent, Home Economics Rappahannock citizens can exhibit in many different areas in the Culpeper-Madison-Rappahannock Farm Show which is scheduled for July 20-24 at Culpeper Agriculture Enterprises. Now is the time to pick up a catalog and decide what you might like to show off in July. White primarily a youth show for 4-H, adults and other youth have a lot of opportunities to display items they have made or grown. Entries close July 1. In the open competition, which is Rappahannock's version of the county fair, exhibits are judged in food, clothing, arts and crafts, flowers, photography and garden vegetables. The open competition is sponsored by the Family Community Educators in the three counties and is open to anyone over age 19. Past exhibitors would generally agree there is a special thrill in seeing something you have created on display, and if it as a big blue ribbon, all the better! Many 4-H’ers are already hard to work on exhibits for the homemaking competition. The various 4-H clubs have had training sessions to prepare themselves and their animals for the shows. Beef steer projects have been weighed in, as have market hogs and market lambs. All will be sold at the livestock sale on Monday, July 24. Come by the Extension office and pick up a copy of the catalog.

Corn Pollination By DR. DIANE RELF Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Virginia gardeners anticipating enjoyment of fresh-from-the-garden corn, should be seeing the plants growing out in the garden. The early maturing varieties should be fairly tall. The ripening process will be later in the season and the pollen shed and kernel development in a com plant is a well-organized event. Pollen shed from the tassel, the male part of the plant, normally begins two to three days prior to silking of the ear, the * female pan. Silk Catches and Holds Pollen The silk has a large number of sticky hairs to he/p catch and hold the pollen. A silk is present for each potential kernel on the ear. Before the kernel will develop, the egg (ovule) at the end of the silk must be fertilized by the pollen grain. The pollen begins to germinate within a few minutes after it falls on a Silk. A pollen tube grows down the silk carrying the sperm with genetic material to combine with the ovule on the ear and develop a kernel. Each Curtis Family Adopts Daughter Robert and Sandy Curtis and Joshua of Tulsa, Oklahoma have announced the adoption of a daughter and sister. Tiffany, on Friday, May 26. Tiffany is seven years old.

"#*-• ' % ' ' m ; ■ ■ W Combo Real Estate Available In 14 Newspapers Call 675-3338 tassel produces about 250,000 pollen grains to complete fertilization on the 800 to 1,000 silks that emerge from each ear. Pollen shedding begins with the extension of the anthers in the middle of the center spike and continues over the entire tassel. Pollination normally occurs between 9 and 11 a m., but can occur earlier in hot, dry conditions and will be delayed in wet weather. The elongation of the stem holding the anther occurs rather rapidly and may require only 10 to 15 minutes. Once the anther has emerged fromt he tassel, the tip splits open, and a large number of pollen rains are released. Corn Pollen One of Largest Pollen Grains Com pollen is one of the largest pollen grains dependent upon being disseminated by wind. Most will fall within 30 to 40 feet, but some can be carried by the wind for long distances. Pollen shed from one tassel will continue over a period of five to eight days. If conditions are too wet one day, there may not be any pollen shedding. Often, there are several pollen grains germinating on the same silk. The one reaching the ovule first completes fertilization. After the silk is fertilized, food supply to that silk is cut off, and the silk dies. Silks continue to elongate until fertilized and remain receptive to pollen for about one week. After fertilization, about 50 days are required for the kernel to mature. Three Reasons for Poor Pollination Poor * pollination can occur because of hot, dry weather. This failure may be the result of several factors: 1) Dead pollen — Under magnification, the pollen looks around. Flat spots on pollen indicate dead or malformed pollen. 2) Silk emergence being delayed past the optimum or peak pollen shed. 3) The silk being too dry to cause the pollen to germinate. Poor pollination results in a scattering of kernels over the entire ear. Most often, the failure of kernels on the tip of the ear to develop is the result of stress to the plant (soil to dry, low fertility), rather than poor pollination.
