III ii nr MMMifewm 1 School Test Scores Present 'Mixed Bag' Community Members Suggest Better Vocational Offerings f By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Rappahannock’s students did better on standardized tests this year than last year, but their Literacy Passport passing rates were lower. Assistant superintendent Mary Ann Biggs presented some test results to the School Board at their Tuesday night meeting. She said there are many wonderful things that go on in the schools that standardized tests cannot measure, but “You don’t find things in there you would not want children to know.” She said students could probably score better if county schools had good scores as their “sole goal,” but other things are important also. “There are some good scores and some we don't feel good about. It’s a picture of where we are now.” She presented only the reading comprehension, math and science scores for fourth, eighth and eleventh graders, but she presented charts showing these scores since 1988. Fourth graders scored 49 percent in reading, 54 percent in m-ath and 65 percent in science. These scores were an improvement in each category over scores in 1994. Kighth graders scored 55 percent in reading comprehension, 46 percent in math and 62 percent in science. These scores were higher and science and about the same in reading and math as last year. Eleventh graders scored 60 percent in reading comprehension, 63 percent in math and 62 percent in science. These results were all higher than scores in 1994. The state’s three Literacy Passpost Tests are first given to students in sixth grade. Students must retake any test they do not pass and may not enter ninth grade unless they have passed all three. This year 77.3 percent of sixth graders passed the writing test compared to 90.4 percent in 1994. In reading 79.5 percent passed this year See Schools, Page A-6 Old Rag Bulletins New Area Code All telephones in Rappahannock County will be switching to the new 540 area code July 15.

Jay Katzen and Rep. Frank Wolf, Rappahannock County was added to the list of localities declared major disaster areas as a result of floods June 26 and 27. This will enable county citizens to qualify for various forms of federal aid. A large amount of private fundraising to help flood victims is also underway. The Piedmont United Way is trying to raise S30.CQ0 from the community to meet a challenge from several area businesses. According to Betty Roberts of the United Way, if the community share can be raised the Piedmont United Way should be able to give $80,000 or more to the Culpeper chapter of the American Red Cross for Rappahannock News Staff Photos by Cindy Mahan At John Burns’s Goat Hill Farm 6,000 tomato plants, along with red maple trees, basil, chili and squash plants, were swept away. Theft Sentence Suspended Grand Jury Indicts Fire, Trial Dates Set By CINDY MAHAN Rippikunack Newt Staff Writer In Rappahannock County Circuit Court on Monday, Michael G. Robinson, 19, of Gainesville, was sentenced to five years on a charge of grand larceny. He had pled guilty to stealing 19 knives from the home of Larry Kommes, where he had been working as a painter. The sentence, however, was suspended .by Judge Selwyn Smith, and Mr. Robinson was ordered to be on five years of supervised probation instead. Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke argued that Mr. Robinson should be given some jail time. He said that according to Mr. Robinson’s pre-sentencing report, he had accumulated quite an extensive criminal record in just slightly over a year. Mr. Luke said that Mr. Robinson had two prior concealed weapon charges, one in Fauquier and one in Prince William County. Both had to do with the knives which he had taken from Mr. Kommes; Also, Mr. Luke pointed out, as a juve nile Mr. Robinson had been charged with possession of alcohol and destruction of private property. While out on bond for the grand larceny case, Mr. Robinson was charged with disorderly conduct. Mr. Robinson’s mother testified that she felt her son had matured at a later age than most boys, and that this was the reason for his many run-ins with the law. Mr. Luke said that he didn’t feel Mr. Robinson’s criminal record could be attributed to immaturity. Jud Fischel, Mr. Robinson’s attorney, argued that he felt his client may backslide if he were incarcerated at this point. He said that Mr. Robinson had plans to attend air-conditioning and heating school in the fall. Though the sentencing guidelines showed that Mr. Robinson has had between five and eight adult misdemeanor convictions and a prior criminal record as a juvenile, the guidelines did not call for See Court, Page A-2 flood relief. Caroline Shultz, chapter manager, said the money will be used for “helping people get their lives back together.” She said the Red Cross would be prividing groceries, clothing, furniture, linens, stress counselling, funds for medical needs, and money for temporary shelter such as rent and rental deposits. The Red Cross has set up a service center in the Madison County Middle School , Ms. Shultz said. People need to come by and let them know of their needs or call 948-2213. There is also a toll-free Red Cross number to enable people to get help. It is 1-800-495-1211. All contributions to the United Way for this campaign will be used in the immediate area of Madison, Rappahannock, Greene, Culpeper, Orange and Fauquier counties for flood relief only and will not be used for overhead expenses, Ms. Roberts reported. Contributions to the Piedmont United Way flood assistance drive may be sent to: Piedmont United Way Flood Relief Fund P.O. Box 398 Culpeper, Va. 22701 Powell Priming in Culpeper is also offering to donate a replacement “starter set” of stationary to people whose business stationary was lost in the flood. Big K radio in Warrenton has also started a flood relief campaign called “Hands Across Virginia.” Contributions may be mailed to: Hands Across Virginia c/o WKCV Radio P.O. Box 740 Warrenton, Va. 22186 County Administrator John McCarthy said resident engineer.Robert Moore reported that VDOT estimated a cost of $2 million to repair roads in the county. VDOT has had heavy expenses with See Flood, Page A-6 Many people lost bridges at their entrances like this one.

Judge Smith told him that one of the conditions of his probation will be that he not violate any laws and does not have the privilege to own a gun. He also ordered Mr. Robinson to have a DNA test done at the jail. Also on Monday, the Grand Jury met and handed down indictments for five people. Carl James Snyder, Jr., 31, of Sperryville, was indicted for discharging a firearm within an occupied building, a felony, and brandishing a firearm, a misdemeanor. Mr. Snyder is in the Rappahannock County Jail, awaiting his next court date of July 20. Howard Clayton Jones, 43, of Flint Hill, .was indicted for two felonies, malicious wounding and attempting to use a firearm in a threatening manner, and a misdemeanor, brandishing a firearm. Mr. Jones is free on a $10,000 secured bond. His trial with a jury will be held on September 22. Jeffrey Allen Burke, 34, of Staunton, was indicted for possession of cocaine. He is out on a $2,000 personal recognizance bond. Otis Wilford Jordan, 39, of Amissville, was indicted for possession of cocaine, and is free on a $5,000 unsecured bond. Judy Kay Meredith, 34, of Reva, was indicted on two counts of credit card fraud. She is out on a $2,000 personal recognizance bond. Charles Richard Meredith, 33, of Woodville, applied to have his driver’s license restored. He was declared an habitual offender on November 13, 1989. Although Mr. Meredith has not driven since that time, he was charged with being drunk in public in 1990. Mr. Luke felt that he should be able to have his license reinstated, but that it should be a restricted license. Frank Reynolds, Mr. Meredith’s attorney, argued that Mr. Meredith now takes his responsibilities seriously, is holding down a job and has four children and a girlfriend. Judge Smith agreed to restore Mr. Meredith’s driving privileges, but cautioned him to not go out and get drunk and get behind the wheel of a car. He also told Mr. Meredith he should marry his girlfriend, especially since they had children. A jury trial will take place on October 19 for Thomas J. Zelko, 54, of Casanova. Mr. Zelko is charged with practicing a profession or occupation without holding a valid license from the Commonwealth of Virginia Board for Contractors. According to the court file, Mr. Zelko contracted with Frederick H. Kahler and Mary H. Speer in Castleton in 1993 to supervise and consult during construction on their property. Peter Luke asked that capies for two men who have absconded remain outstanding. Mr. Luke said that James C. Crawford, 21, took off while the court was awaiting a pre-sentence report. Mr. Crawford had been found guilty of petit larceny. John Joseph Messick, 31, has also absconded, according to Mr. Luke. He had pled guilty to a bad check felony in December, 1985.

New Businesses Open in Washington By SHARON KILPATRICK Rippahoaock Nrwi Staff Writer Charlotte Taylor is running two or three businesses out of the Crysalis Gallery at the corner of Gay and Porter streets. In the back is Venture Concepts her business management consulting firm, which specializes in small and medium businesses and particularly in businesses operated by women and minorities. She also offers training sessions on the road and runs a nonprofit offshoot, the Alliance for Women Business Owners. In the front is Crysalis Gallery, a joint venture with Ruthellen Pollan, an artist who lives and teaches in Utah. Ms. Taylor said her relationship with Ms. Pollan goes back 20 years when they met at an inn in Maine. Ms. Taylor had just finished writing a book on how to start and business and was “wanting to write more and be more artistic” and Ms. Pollan was working as an artist and wanting to sell more of her work. In 1986 Ms. Taylor bought a weekend place on the Fodderstack Road in Rappahannock County. Her business in Washington, D.C., was going well and her Rappahannock home was a weekend home for several years. Ms. Pollan originally from Long Island, N.Y., was teaching at the College qtf Eastern Utah on the edge of the Navaho Nation with most of her students Native Americans. This summer Ms. Pollan began work at the Maryland Institute of Art on a Masters of Fine Art in painting. She will return to Utah in the fall. Last winter Ms. Taylor decided to rent the space for a gallery' to show Ms. Pollan’s work and see if her hunch was right, that since she was spending about half her time on the road, with fax machines and computers, “I could operate the business out of here as easily as Washington, D.C. I’m not sure of that yet,” she said. “I’m in the process of finding out.” In April the Gallery opened. Besides Ms. Pollan’s watercolor and oil landscapes of scenes in Rappahannock, the gallery also carries “wearable art,” jewelry pieces in porcelain and clay with seed pearls made by Maureen and Rebecca Worth of Lexington, Va., and handpainted watering cans made by John Palmer of Sevema Park, Md. The galery also carries hand painted Victorian porcelain and glass Ms. Taylor has collected. She said she will also carry some antiques. Last Friday Ms. Pollan was visiting. “Our lives have been an interesting trip,” she said. “When we do meet it’s always at a different site.” She said the gallery was named crysalis for the butterfly’s cocoon. “It’s always becoming.” Her work has also been “becoming.” Earlier work in pen and ink gave way to work with pastels and more recently work with watercolors and oils. She said she intends to show primarily work she has done while visiting Rappahannock County in the gallery, but may also show some of her work from the American Southwest and even some of her students’ work if the demand is there. Theirs has been a “very natural, comfortable, good relationship Over many years,” she said. Opening a gallery was “natural outrowth” of that, she said. Traffic in the gallery has not been as heavy as Ms. Taylor had hoped for, and she wants to explore ways to get people to walk the extra block down Gay Street from Talk of the Town. She said she did a good business for July 4th especially in the “wearable art.” She has had varied business experience, but this is her first venture into a retail business she said. She hopes this combination of businesses gives her the opportunity to develop as a writer and sell more of Ms. Pollan’s art works. Accident Results in Charges On July 4, Steven G. Price Jr., 24, of Spotsylvania, was charged with driving under the influence (DUI), driving on a revoked license and hit and run. According to State Trooper Wayne Sumner, Mr. Price was driving eastbound at a high rate of speed on U.S. 211 near the Pine Knot Inn when he lost control of his 1986 Chevy 2-door and struck the guardrail on the left side of the road. He then careened back on U.S. 211 another 25 feet and struck the guardrail a second time. This time, though, Mr. Price’s vehicle spun around and showered a passing car with rocks and gravel damaging its paint job. James W. Allsberry of Flint Hill Three Earn Tech Degrees Three Rappahannock County residents earned degrees from Virginia Tech this spring. Holly L. Hensley of Washington earned a master’s degree, and Melissa E. Manuel of Castleton and Kristy L. Weatherly of Viewtown earned bachelor’s degrees. in a 1989 Honda 2-door was passing Mr. Price’s car on the right as this was happening. Mr. Price’s car then did a 360 and ended up in the median strip. According to the accident report, Mr. Price got out of his vehicle, removed the tags from it, and ran into the field near the Bleu Rock Inn. After a short foot chase by Troopers Sumner and Sean Knick, Mr. Price was apprehended in the vineyard. Mr. Price’s car sustained $1,000 damage and Mr. Allsberry’s had $500 damage.

Old Rag Mountain Reopened to Hikers The closure of Old Rag Mountain to hiking was lifted Friday for access by State Route 600 from Weakley or Berry Hollows. This area was closed from July 2-6 due to the floods in the area. The Park is assessing the condition of other trails. Most remain open; some are temporarily closed. With the re-opening of the Old Rag area in Shenandoah National Park, park officials are reminding visitors that this is a popular attraction that is heavily used on weekends and holidays. Parking is limited and often fills up early, and the trail to the top of Old Rag can be backed up with people waiting to reach the summit. Central District Leader Ginny Rousseau encourages prospective visitors to Old Rag to consider either coming on a weekday or using one of the park's other trails on the east side of the Blue Ridge. For further information on trail conditions, park-wide, or alternative hikes in lieu of Old Rag, visitors should check with visitor center or entrance station staff or contact the park at 999-3500.

Members need to get estimates of payroll costs before doing additional work on the budget and determining if they can grant raises to plant employees without raising sewer rates. They will meet again‘Thursday, July 20. Plant operator Donna Chabot reported that the Sperryville sewer plant did discharge solids during recent heavy rains. She said when she contacted Richmond about the discharge, they informed her that many plants were having the same problems. She said once the rains started within five to 10 minutes the discharge went from 17,000 gallons per day to over 100,000 gallons per day, and it stayed at that rate for two days. However, she reported the plant recovered quickly once the heavy rains were past and the discharge is currently clear. Member Carson Johnson said he had never seen the ground in Sperryville as saturated as it was last week. He said he has seen the Thornton River much higher but without the saturated ground. Ms. Chabot said she and Troy Jenkins tried to check on individual tanks during the heavy flow, but water was coming into some tanks faster than it could be pumped out. WSA members said it may be necessary to install vent pipes in the system to break up the siphoning effect that seems to come in heavy rains. Operators will be conducting smoke tests starting July 18 and continuing for two weeks. Ms. Chabot asked sewer system customers to make sure nothing is placed on the manhole lids and basin covers in the system so employees can have access to them. Members of the WSA hope the smoke tests will show where there are leaks in the system. Members agreed to try to develop a revised user agreement to be used for those reserving sewer rights without actually hooking up.

At both schools new principals and assistant principals plan for the next school year with an emphasis on teamwork. Test results announced this week show there is certainly still need for improvement. Standardized test scores are generally up while fewer sixth graders passed the state’s Literacy Passport. Comparing results from one year to the next can be risky. In a small school system classes differ markedly from one year to the next. Some classes have large numbers of very able students while others have large numbers of students with less academic promise. However, the standardized test scores have been trending downward this decade while the Literacy Passport Scores have been trending up. Was this year an anomaly? Again time will tell. However, now is the time to wish all these school administrators well as they prepare for the coming year in their new positions and the county prepares for its first School Board election. Support Flood Relief Most Rappahannock citizens escaped from the recent floods with little or no losses. However, several suffered severe and tragic losses. In neighboring Madison County many more people suffered dramatic losses. Many organizations are supporting flood relief. The organization that seems best suited to provide needed help to our neighbors in the county and in Madison County is the Piedmont United Way. The goal is to raise $50,000 from contributions from individuals and groups in the area. If this goal is reached, it will be matched with large contributions from area businesses. All the funds will be turned over to the Culpeper branch of the® American Red Cross to be used only in the immediate area and only for direct relief from the effects of the flooding. While the federal government has funds to help in certain situations, it tends to respond to immediate needs in a cumbersome way. Private relief efforts are likely to be more effective in the short term.

Letters to the Editor VDOT and Rappawan Thanked To the Editor: We would like to take this opportunity to thank VDOT for such prompt action is securing a contractor to repair Route 629 as well as commend Rappawan and its employees for the many diligent hours of hard work during the past few weeks following the flood. This group of individuals went above and beyond the call of duty working non-stop 12 to 14 hours a day. This was straight through the Fourth of July holiday and into the following weekend. What started out as an indefinite time without a “road” turned into a miracle after only a few short days. The residents of Route 629 in Flint Hill would like to say “Thank You” from the bottom of our hearts for * being so responsive to our needs. Our hats are off to you! RESIDENTS OF ROUTE 629 Flint Hill Sperryville Has Had Grocery Store To the Editor: Without intending to detract from the many compliments bestowed upon the new Mountainside Market by the writer in last week’s paper (July 5, Section B, p. 1), 1 do think it was a bit unkind of her to have referred to Mountainside as Rappahannock’s “first honest-togoodness grocery store.” "1 hear you're looking for a successful adventurer -to teach the Tech students about the real world! ^ UoOL ~~--- \ | -mV' — that was Entrepreneur, air/ It would seem that your writer had never set food inside Randolph Clater’s Sperryville Corner Store, which has been in business for many years in the very same village to which the Mountainside Market has only recently moved. Whereas Mountainside rates highly as a gourmet, “health-food” store, I give the Corner Store equally high marks as an “honest-to-goodness grocery store.” For the “meat and potatoes” man, woman, or child, Randolph Clater has what you’re looking for. Come to think of it, I don’t believe Mountainside sells either meat or potatoes. These two stores complement each other. They overlap here and there, no doubt, but we are fortunate to have them both, whatever “honestto-goodness” sorts of stores they are. JOHN CADWALADER, JR. Woodville Workers Thanked To the Editor: I wish to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to all the people affiliated with the Rappahannock Athletic Association for their generosity and hard work exhibited the past week or so hosting the 13-year old District V Babe Ruth Tournament. All of these people have demonstrated what Babe Ruth Baseball is all about. The hard work that goes into hosting a tournament was demonstrated by everyone involved. My hat goes off to the President, Mr. Dennis Fairbrother, Mr. Denny O’Neill, my assistance and Tournament Director, the folks in the concession stand, the umpires’who did a really good job of keeping the games going, the field crews and so on. One must also remember that all of this was done during a time of devastation during the recent floods — they never forgot the tournament that had to be played. I can’t forget a lady by the name of Gail who supplied me with a plate dinner July 4th at Madison with fried chicken. It was great, Gail. I’ll look you up again some time. I do not know all of the people’s names involved, but you know who you are, and my sincere thanks goes out to all of you and 1 look forward to seeing you again in the future. JAMES DAVIS Charlottesville District V Commissioner Virginia Babe Ruth League, Inc. Why Make Matters Worse? To the Editor: Rappahannock County could use “planned and zoned...clustered housing in the towns and villages,” to attract new residents, according to James P. Gannon. It could? Well yes, if you also believe that the Statue of Liberty could use a wart of her nose and a drooping hem on her robe, held up by a pin paid for by the citizens of Rappahannock County, to attract new tourists, it could. Otherwise, no. Why should a county that is perpetually faced with water supply problems, sewage problems, and school maintenance problems take any action that will hugely increase the demand for water, for sewage disposal, and probably a couple of new school buildings? May I mention the still touchy question of trash disposal? And that the county can not now afford to put air conditioning into the new auditorium in the high school we already have? And now we should go into debt, too, and “sell, say $1 million worth of tax-free bonds” to people who would like to start a small business here, never mind that there is not, as far as I know, any solid evidence that enterprise zones work the way they are supposed to. A steady increase in population brought on by the coming in of individuals and famil-ies who are not interested in handouts from the government is what we have, and what we shall probably continue to have, and that’s all to the good. A tax break here and there to encourage the hiring of local people is also not a bad idea, but for the county to go immediately into debt in order to increase the demand on all of its already inadequate facilities is as dangerous a proposition as I have ever heard. EDITH POND Sperryville Volunteers Thanked To the Editor: The annual Fourth of July Celebration in Washington was a huge success and we want to thank you, the community, and the dozens of volunteers, for making it one of the most memorable ever. A special thanks goes to those volunteers on the various committeeswho worked tirelessly to insure that this year’s celebration measured up of those of years past. We would be remiss if we did not note especially the volunteers on the committees which organized the vendors, publicity, parking, fireworks, and last by not least, the logistics. We can’t name each individual because the list is over one hundred persons, but you know who you are and how much the community appreciates all that you contributed. We also want to thank the Rappahannock County Sheriff’s Department for its special assistance throughout the day, as well as all those who made donations of materials and financial contributions to the events. Of course, the highlight of the festivities — the spectacular fireworks display — would not have been possible without the generosity of William Carrigan, who graciously allows us to hold the various entertainment events and fireworks display on his beautiful Avon Hall estate. As many of you know, this is the first time that the Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community (RAAC) has organized the Fourth of July celebration. We enjoyed the experience and the opportunity afforded us to assist the numerous non-profit organizations that benefited from the event. We also learned a lot about its organization and hope to make it even better next year. We would like to thank the Town Council, and especially Charlie Tompkins, who gave us the opportunity to help the community this way, and who worked so tirelessly himself to make it the enormous success that it was. Again our thanks to everyone in the community, and to the Rappahannock News, for helping us stage this successful event at a time when the community so needed something to uplift our spirits after the tragedies of the flood. We thank you one and all. BEV ATKINS and ELLEN MANSON Co-Chairs of the Fourth of July Celebration for RAAC Supporters Thanked To the Editor: Thank you all who participated in the Amissville Volunteer Fire and Rescue carnival — those who attended in spite of the weather, worked stands, donated money, purchased tickets or provided food. It requires much preparation and coordination. Special thanks to my “chicken fryers”: an elderly lady crippled with arthritis and walking with two canes; a lady who has recently had hip: replacement surgery; and a lady who had out-of-town guests to entertain. They are what 1 call Volunteers with a capital “V.” No less appreciated are those who baked beans or cakes, deviled eggs, made potato salad, etc. They are also! the ones called on often, for I know; they will respond and are dependable! • Monetary contributions were many and generous. Thanks. And to those who did not respond, if you have trouble, the firp and rescue volunteers will answer, your call anyway. ! SARAH LATHAM Amissville

Monarchs Lose Pitchers' Duel, Remain in First Place By BOB HOWARD Rappahannock New Contributing Writer On Sunday, Edinburg pitcher Mike Siers limited the Rappahannock Monarchs to two runs and six hits, as Edinburg topped Rappahannock 4-2. The two teams now have identical 8-2 records, but the Monarchs remain in first place in the Apple Valley Baseball League. Complex league tie-breaking procedures meant that Edinburg would have had to win by five runs to take over first place. Siers, the only pitcher to have beaten the Monarchs this year, squared off against Leroy North for the second time in a month. Once again, the two locked in a pitcher’s duel; and, as in their first meeting, Siers came out on top. Sires went seven and two-thirds innings, struck out nine, and walked one. He had complete command of all his pitches and alternately blew Monarchs away with his fastball and baffled them with his curve. North was equally impressive, striking out five, while walking two, and surrendering six hits and one earned run over seven and one-third innings. He was hurt by four Rappahannock errors, which led to three unearned runs. North showed granite-like determination as he pitched out of jams in the first, fifth, sixth, and seventh innings. The Monarchs scored first in the second. Luther Alexander lined a single to right, and raced all the way around from first to score when Edinburg misplayed Bill Atkins’ single. Atkins, who wound up on third, came home on Festus Clanagan’s suicide squeeze. The Monarchs kept this lead through the fourth inning, but in the Edinburg fifth, Timmy Palmer reached on an error. Todd Miller, Edinburg’s next batter, promptly laced a triple to center scoring Palmer. Miller later scored on a sacrifice fly to tie the game. Edinburg took the lead in the seventh. Palmer led off the inning and reached on an error, again. He scored the go-ahead run with two out on a single by Bobby Drummond. Edinburg added an insurance run in the eighth when Wayne Harper scored on Jimmy Harper’s triple. Siers kept the Monarch bats quiet until the eighth. With two out, Reggie Williams, who led Rappahannock with two hits, doubled into the woods in right. Alexander and Nils Aylor followed with walks to load the bases. Siers was relieved on the mound by Brian Chicalon, who faced Monarch’s catcher Andy Furr. Furr smashed three consecutive foul line drives, all of which were potential game-tying extra base hits, before grounding to third to end the inning. Both teams went quietly in the ninth to make the final score 4-2. According to the League rules, when two teams are tied in the standings, the season series is the first tiebreaker. Edinburg and Rappahannock split the season series two games each. The second tie-breaker is run differential in games against each other. Entering the day, Rappahannock was ahead of Edinburg by four runs, which meant that Edinburg needed to beat the Monarchs by at least five runs to take over first place. So, after going ahead by two runs in the eighth inning, Edinburg players were saying that they were “down by three.” Monarch’s coach, David Clanagan, had this to say about the game: “Siers was overpowering Puppets Bring Library Pizzaz By NAOMI SMOOT Rappahannock News Sommer Intern Have you ever wondered what would happen if a dragon was hired to play the role of Thomas Jefferson?

Day REALTOR OPEN LISTING LIMITATIONS An open listing is one in which you may offer your home to any and all real estate agencies or sell it yourself. Sounds pretty good on the surface, but let's take a closer look. If this type of listing looks too good, it may be just that. With an open listing, you are pretty much on your own as to pricing, how best to show, advertising, etc. Very few agencies will advertise an open listing because they are not protected if another agency sells the property. You will probabry end up doing and paying for the advertising-if any advertising is to be done. One other important factor-an open listing cannot be introduced into the multiple listing system. If an agency happens to show and sell your open-listed house, you still pay the full commission. In other words, you may end up paying a full commission even though you have missed many of the benefits of having hired a fullservice exclusive agent If there is anything we can do to help you in the field of real estate, please stop in at EILEEN M. DAY, Realtor, the Clopton House, Washington, Va., 22/47. Phone 6753033, We're here to help. library found out the answer to this very question when Puppets by Pizzaz performed for them Wednesday evening. The puppeteer called for a volunteer to play Thomas Jefferson, and a dragon volunteered. Their story follows. To begin with you make a damsel in distress even more distressed. Imagine waking up one morning and having a bad hair day. Then to make matters worse you trip on one of your brother’s toys on your way down the stairs. Could anything else probably go wrong? Well if you are a damsel in distress then you’ll obviously see a dragon somewhere along the line. Our damsel did just this. On her way to school she met a dragon whose breath smelled like “sulfur and old fish” and whose foot prints were “bigger than bread boxes.” A knight in shining armor would be very in vogue for a person in this situation, so another character, Little Artie, is found to fill the position. He meets most of the requirements. He makes straight A’s in school and helps his parents every day. He has one small problem though; he’s a coward. This shouldn’t have been a problem since his great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather was King Arthur, but it was. Actually he had inherited a gene with a kink and was the sort of guy who was “all brain and no brawn.” He couldn’t even throw a football or hit a baseball. Therefore there was a definite need for some help from the Wizard of the Hills. The wizard promised he would help if Artie “heeds the signs under the scarf.” The signs however can not be found until all of the clues have been received because the scarf is protected by a “magnetic electronic field” one of the Wizards own inventions. The sign under the scarf was a book which told the traits Artie needed to be a true Knight. These include being brave and true at heart. OBO came back at this point and did his best to scare Little Artie. However, he was no longer afraid and they become good friends. As Little Artie put it, they found out that sometimes the “things you fear the most are things you shouldn’t be afraid of at all.” The Library will continue hosting programs from 7-8 p.m. each Wednesday evening through Aug. 2.' There is also a story hour on Monday at 10 a.m. for children six and under and another at 11 a.m. for those in the program who are seven and older. NO $ Needed!!

He’s going to be real tough to beat in the playoffs. We didn’t play our best defensively, but Leroy did a great job on the hill to keep us close.” Assistant Coach Nils Aylor said: “We wanted to run and squeeze today, and we were able to do that effectively in the second inning. It wasn’t pretty, but the two runs we manufactured kept us in first place.” This Sunday, at 1:00 p.m., the Monarchs will close out the regular season with a double-header against New Market at Rappahannock County High School.

One residence was destroyed, 24 suffered major damage and 19 suffered minor damage, Mr. McCarthy reported. He said most of the minor damage was to driveways giving access to the houses, not the houses themselves. Many private bridges and fords across streams on driveways were washed out. He reported that the Natural Resources Conservation Service in Madison could provide grant funds to clear out stream or channel blockages where debris “poses an immediate threat to loss of life and property.” John Jeffries at (703) 948-4490 has information on this program which involves a cost share, Mr. McCarthy reported. In addition farmers and other property owners who wish to remove flood debris on their own that is creating a hazard should call the U.S. Army Corps of Engineeers for guidelines on working within stream beds. Contact Ron Stouffer at 948-4490. The Conservation Farm Service Agency (CFSA) is hoping to receive funds through the Emergency Conservation Program (ECP), which is a federally funded program. Molly Welch of the CFSA office said that if the funds are approved, farmers could receive help with fencing and debris removal on a cost-share basis. She urges farmers to visit her office and sign an application so that a spot check can be made of their property to verify damage. If funds are then allocated, their dispersal would be hastened if the application is already signed. The Rappahannock Health Department advises that people concerned that flood waters may have contaminated their wells or damaged their drainfields should contact the Health Department. They can take samples to test and see if the well was contaminated. They can also advise residents with contaminated wells how to chlorinate them. The Health department has a limited supply of chlorine and may be able to provide some for those in need. The Health Department is open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and can be reached at 675-3516. The Family Guidance Services clinic in Washington is offering three free one-hour sessions to all people who have been affected by the flood, according to Paul Regan, the Emergency Services Coordinator for the Rappahannock-Rapidan Community Services Board. The phone number at the clinic is 6753329; someone can be reached at that number 24 hours a day. Mr. McCarthy and local emergency coordinator Dieter Kneupfer attended a meeting in Culpeper Monday morning to find out about federal relief programs. Mr. McCarthy said the emphasis of that meeting was on assistance to local governments that had losses in the flood. The county government did not have any losses he said, except that some equipment was damaged that belongs to local rescue units, and they will apply for help in replacing it. He said the major county concern is that debris continues to block streams, making it likely that further rains will result in more flooding. Mr. McCarthy said he understood Warren County had received approval to clean out Gooney Creek under a program that requires the local government to put up 25 percent of the cost. He said Rappahannock would explore using county funds to match federal funds to clean up the Rush and upper Jordan rivers. The largest cost to government, Mr. McCarthy reported, was the cost to VDOT for repairing and rebuilding roads, and VDOT will be applying for federal funds to pay for a portion of that cost. Route 729 continues to be cut at the bridge over Battle Run, VDOT head Ron Marshall reported. In addition the road will be closed for one day next week two miles west of that point to replace a culvert. Also the road will be closed in Culpeper County between routes 628 and 646 for about a week beginning Monday July 17 to replace a drainage pipe. All of this is causing people to use detours, but no one is unable to get out, Mr. Marshall said. In addition the dead ends of some roads are not yet opened, but no one lives along them, he added. The Federal Emergency Management Agency has located a Disaster Application Center at the Madison County High School for private property owners seeking help. This agency will handle applications for help to rebuild. The center is staffed from 9 a.m. until 7 p.m. daily. The phone number is (703) 9483083. Private.property owners can report damage and apply for relief by calling the center, Mr. McCarthy reported. In addition FEMA has also set up two toll free numbers for people to call. Call 1-800-525-0321 for information or 1-800-462-9029 to register for assistance. ► Schools From Page A-l compared to 79.7 percent in 1994.

These scores are significantly higher than scores in the past few years, although in 1990 the scores were higher. For the past two years first graders were not tested in several areas. Kindergarten students scored 69 in reading and 74.5 in math in the Metropolitan Readiness Test. At the beginning of the meeting representatives from the fire and rescue squads suggested the fireman training offered at Carver-Piedmont Technical School is not preparing students for work with paid fire and rescue departments or for volunteer work with local squads. Frank Huff, president of the local Fire and Rescue Association and J.B. Carter, chief of the Amissville department said in the two-year program offered at Piedmont students should be able to pass Firefighter Levels 1 and 2 and get EMT certificates. They said since the instructor at Piedmont is not a certified teacher of EMT, students are only able to get the less demanding Red Cross First Aid instruction and CPR. Many also do not complete Firefighter Level Two, either, they said. Board Chairman Beverly Massie and Superintendent David Gangel suggested they take their concerns to the Piedmont School Board. During the period for public comment on the six-year plan Ellen Manson suggested the high school should offer a program for certified nurse assistants. She said this program can prepare juniors in high school for work that is in great demand. Ellie Clark supported this suggestion. Mrs. Clark also said the school system needs to offer more challenging classes especially in science for more advanced students. New elementary school principal Raye Tupper presented the program for Title One for the coming school year. She said that due to cutbacks in federal funding for the program changes had to be made, but she said the changes may offer many long term benefits. Most of the remedial work will take place in regular classrooms rather than in separate labs. Students will be able to participate in the regular music, art and physical education programs, and most work on remedial reading and math will be covered with team teaching involving both the Title One teachers and aides and the regular classroom teacher.

Community News Obituaries Rappahannock News • Real Estate • Classifieds WEDNESDAY, JULY 12, 1995 Baldwin's Grocery Attracts Locals for Lunch, Shopping Sandwiches, Videos, Lottery Tickets Available By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock Nrwi Staff Writer In September, 1984, Paul Baldwin and his wife Cucie took over his uncle Clarence Baldwin’s grocery which had been in the family for 26 years. The store has not been closed for even one day since that date, including Christmas and New Year’s Day. The store’s customers are 99.9 percent local, said Mrs. Baldwin. Because it is off the main highway, on Business Route 211 heading into Washington, the business remains mostly local. The Baldwins’ other store, the 211 Quicke Mart on U.S. 211 next to the Rappahannock Farmers’ Co-op, opened last December, and that store draws in more out-of-towners. The store was first opened in 1916 and was run by Henry Timbers. According to Mr. Baldwin, the store was the site of a tavern and dance hall in the 1920’s and 30’s, and was I 7 really enjoy working in the store. ’ — Cucie Baldwin called “Mack’s Place,” named after Mack Richards, who sold the store to Clarence Baldwin in 1958. Ed Bailey also ran the store for a while; his widow Ethel Bailey still lives in a house across the street from the store. Mr. Baldwin said that Clarence knew all his customers by name, and the younger Baldwins do nowadays. “I really enjoy working in the store,” said Mrs. Baldwin. It can get confusing in the store sometimes, though, because Mrs. Baldwin and one of the employees, Adlin “Cookie” Childrey, Coolers of several types line the back of the store. have names that are pronounced the same. The store is a popular spot for lunch, as the deli run by deli manager Brenda Jenkins offers plenty of choices of hot and cold foods. Every type of sandwich imaginable can be made on the spot, including Italian subs, or hot dogs, half smokes, or barbeque with cole slaw. There is potato salad too. In the deli case, all types of meats and cheeses are available by the pound, which are sliced while the customer waits. There is also fresh hamburger meat, homemade country sausage, pork chops, scrapple and chicken. In cooler weather, homemade vegetable soup, chili beans and pizza by the slice are big sellers. The store has all the standard country store items, including canning and picnic supplies, country ham for seasoning, garden supplies, and a ‘We have videos for convenience, not to make money. ’ — Paul Baldwin good selection of frozen foods including Pepperidge Farm cake, pizza and garlic bread. Fresh lemons, celery and carrots can be found in one of the coolers, along with night crawlers for fishing. Baldwin’s recently began carrying videos and has 200 available for $2 a night. “We have videos for convenience, not to make money,” said Mr. Baldwin. Mrs. Baldwin said that new titles come in every week. The selection is available at the front counter. Also available at the front counter are lottery tickets and money orders. The Baldwins’ children, Theresa and Tommy, also help out in the store. Doris Dommey is another employee. Baldwin’s Grocery is open from 7:30 a m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sundays.

Streapy's Orchard Has Many Peach Varieties By CINDY MAHAN RappabaaaocfcNm Staff Writer Peach season is just about here, and the crop at Ed and Betty’s Streapy’s High Places Orchards in Huntly will have plenty to sell from July 20 until early September. Most people in the county know Ed Streapy as Major Streapy of the Rappahannock County Sheriffs Office, where he has been working since 1980, but he and his wife Betty are also orchardists. Mrs. Streapy works as a nurse in Front Royal. The Streapys have carefully planned their planting of 13 varieties of peaches and four types of nectarines so that a new variety ripens when one has finished for the season. The first one to be ready, Early Red Frc, a white peach, should be ready to sell within the next week. The other peach varieties, in order of ripening, are Summer <31o, 1 ijsaaspgig pf»PR|eroi?a 1 Rappahannock News Staff Photos by Cindy Mahan ' This sign greets customers at the entrance to the orchard. Raritan Rose, John Boy, Cullman, Beekman, Loring, Can. Harmony, Cresthaven, Jersey Glo, White Hole, Belle of Georgia and Autumn Glo. The nectarine varieties which will ripen this season are Sunglo (around August 1J) and Red Gold (about August 29). Two new varieties recently planted are Earliscarlet and Eastern Glo. All of the peaches and nectarines are freestone Major Streapy said that in the last two or three weeks the peaches size up and their sugar content rises. He began planting his orchards in 1981 and now has seven acres of peaches and 13 acres of apples, for a total of 2,500 trees. The first crop of 320 red delicious and yellow delicious whips were totally destroyed by deer, he said. Now the new trees are protected from deer by hanging bags of dried blood and by surrounding the tender trees with a metal barrier at the base. He has recently added 25 plum trees, and is always experimenting with new varieties. Major Streapy said that the ideal peach tree will yield from four to five bushels. He sprays them every three weeks during growing season. This year he is using a new fungicide called Indar, which he-buys through the Rappahannock Farmers’ Co-op. Indar controls brown rot on the peaches. He buys most of his trees from Pennsylvania, New York and Michigan. He orders trees which are tolerant to brown rot and bacterial leaf spot. “They have to be as disease resistant as possible.” Major Streapy credits Herbert, Charles and Gavor Foster with teaching him almost everything he knows about growing fruit. And Gordon Thornhill at the Co-op has also been a big help with keeping him apprised of new chemicals, he said. Pruning the orchard is a huge job, which takes Major Sireapy, with the help of Mitch Hitt, from November to April. Because he is working full time during the week, weekends are filled up with working on the orchard. Orchard records are kept on the computer, using a software program provided by Zeneca, a chemical supplier. Records keep track of which chemicals are used on which trees at what time. High Places Orchards, which is located at 121 Winesap Lane, the second left hand turn off Route 662 in Huntly, going east, offers a pickyour-own business and also sells a lot to roadside stands and to fanners’ markets in Northern Virgihia. At the pick-your-own, the Streapys encourage customers to pick the best and biggest of the crop, and also to go ahead and mix and match varieties. They also provide containers, either bags or boxes, for the pickers and invite visitors to stay and have a picnic if they wish. Most visitors to the orchard learn about the place by word of mouth. The only, advertising the Streapys do is in the Sheriffs Office calendar. “We have people come from all over Northern Virginia and Maryland,” said Major Streapy. “We try to give high quality fruit for a fair price,” headded. Call the Streapys at 635-5537 for availability of peaches now and apples later on in the season. Their pick-your-own operation is open on weekends and evenings during the week. . \ When cooking with peaches, remember that 3 medium size peach* es equal about one pound, and one bushel equals 48 pounds. Peach recipes abound, with classic favorites such as peach cobbler, peach preserves, and brandied peaches. Peach Chutney 3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar 1/2 cup red wine vinegar 12 peaches, peeled and diced 1/2 cup golden raisins 1/2 cup minced onion 1/2 cup minced red pepper ' 2 tbsp. fresh lemon juice 1 tbsp. finely chopped crystallized ginger 1 tsp. minced fresh ginger 2 tsp. curry powder 1/2 tsp. mustard seed 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes * 1 1/2 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. pepper In a large stainless steel or enameled pan combine sugar, vinegar and 3/4 cup water. Cook over low heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Bring syrup to a boil and boil five minutes. Add the peaches; simmer 10 minutes and transfer peaches with slotted spoon to a bowl. Add to the pan the raisins, onion, red pepper, lemon juice, both gingers, curry, mustard seed, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Bring to boil and boil, stirring occasionally, for ten minutes, or until it is very thick. Add peaches and any juices which have accumulated in the bowl. Bring syrup to boil and simmer, stirring, for five minutes or until syrup is very thick. Transfer to serving bowl, let cool and chill, covered. Makes about four cups. The Streapys’ orchard covers a hillside. Probably the best way to eat a peach is by itself.

Yield: about 4 pints. Note: This recipe is not tested for canning. By HELEN W. SMITH Extension Agent Howe Economics Once upon a time in ancient China, there was a fruit that inspired poets, artists, and philosophers. It’s tree burst forth each spring with fragile, pale flowers — becoming a symbol of fertility. The fruit was creamy pink with a downy softness. It was thought to bring immortality to those who ate it. Coming To America Early in their history, peaches had their fling with the Persians and the Romans; and they were even found On the table of Louis XIV. But it was the Native Americans who took the peach from early settlers and planted it from coast to coast. It was their favorite fruit, and they made the American peach the best in the world. Peaches grow best in areas that have two months of cold winter. Georgia calls itself the peach states; and California grows big, red-hearted peaches. Peaches are grown in the Delaware Valley, through out Pennsylvania and northwest to Michigan. But many argue that the best peaches are grown here in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains right here in Rappahannock County. Consumer Tips On Pickling Peaches Peaches are divided into cling and freestone varieties. Freestone peaches range from the red-skinned Havens and Harknesses to the longish, golden, yellow-skinned Elbertas. They can be split in half by hand, and the stone can easily be removed. Freestone peaches are the most popular but actually tend to be a little less juicy and have a firmer texture than clingstone. Freestones are excellent for can 1 cup brown sugar 1 cup honey 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon cloves 1/4 teaspoon ginger 1/4 teaspoon allspice 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg Prepare home canning jars and lids according to manufacturer’s instructions. Peel, pit and chop peaches. Treat peaches with an antioxidant, such as Fruit-Fresh Fruit Protector, to prevent darkening. Cook peaches in a small amount of water, about 1/2 cup, until soft. Press through sieve or food mill. Measure two quarts pulp. Combine pulp, sugar, honey and spices in a large saucepot. Cook slowly over low heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Cook until butter thickens, about 30 minutes. Carefully ladle butter into hot jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Wipe jars rim clean. Place lid on jar with sealing compound next to glass. Screw band down evenly and firmly. Do not use excessive force. Process 10 minutes in boilingwater canner. Yield: about 6 half-pints. Peach Chutney 24 medium peaches 2 to 3 cups brown sugar 1 cup raisins 1 cup chopped onion 1 /4 cup mustard seed 2 tablespoon ginger 2 teaspoon salt 1 clove garlic, minced (optional) 1 hot red pepper, finely chopped 5 cups vinegar, 5% acidity Prepare home canning jars and lids according to manufacturer’s instructions. Peel, pit and chop peaches. Treat peaches with an antioxidant, such as HOME ECONOMICS ning and pie baking. They come in larger sizes than clings and are easier to prepare. They reach their peak in mid-August. In clingstone peaches, the pit is more difficult to remove, but their juicy, sweet flavor and soft texture are your rewards. Clingstones are excellent canning and jam peaches if you are patient enough to prepare them. Look for fruit with a creamy or yellow (not green) background color.A soft touch and luscious scent tell you that it is ready — as if you didn’t know. Under-ripe peaches can work well for baking, sauteing, broiling or even preserving. However, mealy peaches will never be good for anything. Once peaches are cut, the air will darken the flesh; so be sure to toss with lemon juice or one of the commercial antioxidant fresh fruit protectors. Here are three recipes that I just received from the Ball Company that are good ways to preserve your peaches this summer. Peach Butter 18 medium peaches Methodist Board Members Met The Administrative Board of the Flint Hill United Methodist Church met on Friday evening with Mrs. Barbara Gentry. Those present were Rev.
