After teaching elementary school for six years, Dr. Racey became minister of a local church Nan£T"~served there until he enlisted in the army. For the n^t two years he served as an nxmy Chaplain, leaving the serv­ ice with the rank of Major. During his tour of duty, Dr. Racey decided that he wanted a career in educa­ tion. That decision led him to take a teaching position at Shenandoah College, a job he held until he was elected » president of the school in 1956. "I'm one of those fortu­ nate people who know early in life what they want to do," Dr. Racey said. "I just wish there were more time. If there's one thing I've complained about all my life, it's the lack of time. I don't think I'll ever change in that respect."

Unemployed property owners are allowed to work for the city for a specified period and are then "for­ given" up to $,2000 worth of property taxes. In the first year, one-third of these city "workers" were over 65. Ask 10 people to define retirement and you're likely to get 10 different answers. To 77 year old Dr. For­ rest S. Racey of Winchester, Virginia, retirement is still only a word and not a state of being, for even though he has officially "retired," he is still as active as ever. In 1969 after stepping down as president of She­ nandoah College and Con­ servatory of Music, Dr. Racey continued to teach Economics at the college. He also remained chairman of the Planning and Build­ ing Committee and has su­ pervised the financing and building of two new build­ ings on the campus. A firm believer in change and improvement, Dr. Racey is involved in sev­ eral renovation programs throughout the Winchester area. Recently, he initiated a renovation plan for the city's public library. "There is so much that needs to be done," Dr. Racey told a writer from the National Council on the Aging. "I have the time and energy so I do as much as I can." Along with his responsi­ bilities at the college, Dr. Racey is also serving as pas­ tor of the two churches comprising the Winchester Circuit of the United Meth­ odist Church. The churches have under­ gone extensive additions and renovations under his supervision and financial support, including his sal­ ary, which he donates to the churches' building funds. These are only a few of the many activities under­ taken by Dr. Racey since his "retirement." In recog­ nition of his good works, he was named Winchester's "Educator of the Year" in 1973. Dr. Racey attended ele­ mentary and secondary school in Virginia. Upon completion of undergrad­ uate studies at Shenandoah College, Brainwater College and the University of Vir­ ginia, he went on to receive - | STM£ ^6^ What is the connection be­ tween dew on the ground and the dewpoint. Does dew form on the ground when the dew- point is reached? The dewpoint is that tem­ perature at which the air would condense or precipitate. It's that temperature, lower than the actual temperature of the air, at which the moisture in the air would become visible or precipitate. Thus, there's no direct con­ nection between dew on the ground and the dewpoint. As we have learned, dew on the ground forms when earthly objects cool the air to the dewpoint, but above the sur­ face of the air, where physical. objects don't come into contact with the warmer air, the tem­ perature must reach the dew- point to cause visible moisture or precipitation. We can have dew on the ground, then, when the dew- point is many degrees below the actual temperature of the air. ? f ™" ™o™n™aT !o1™ ™ Niteljr. and Sunday* from 2pm GENOA THEA TRF: G f N O A C I T Y W I S • ***' 11 50 "**'• n< CMd JUSl AND ENTIRE Aft ICAA ADMITS out PERSON* I DUC J«n. 23 29 I ^ T "PrWi under 15 »y»t tit with parent f »ay A4m.
