40 YEARS AGO

May 31, 1962

It was a grand night for singing Friday when the Glee Club of Rappahannock County High School presented its spring concert. The 36-member chorus sang religious, patriotic and light selections before a background of roses with stars shining overhead.

May 31 is Teacher Appreciation Day at Rappahannock County High School and all students are “dressing up” in honor of the teachers. A faculty tea will be held in the afternoon and the ladies will be given corsages in appreciation of their long hours of “dispensing knowledge.”

Local people gave hundreds of items for the R.A.D. auction Saturday and over $300 was realized from the sale. Proceeds from the sale will go toward the publication of a brochure about Rappahannock which will b( widely distributed. Receipts will cover approximately half of the cost of the brochures. Items for the sale included a bit of everything from live boxwood and pigs to baby bottles and post hole diggers.

General Daniel Noce was nominated for Chairman of the Rappahannock County Planning Commission on May 24 by members of the Board of Supervisors. Captain L.B. Stuart was nominated as Vice-Chairman. Present at the meeting in addition to General Noce and Captain Stuart were H.S. Barksdale, C.E. Johnson Jr. and E.M. Jones.
