Then you are using Emacs 21. Type

(info "(emacs)File Variables")

This is a feature to enable some customization on a per-file basis, so
files that need slightly different treatment can have it.  It sounds as
though the file you have found has abused it to some extent though by
setting things up exactly as some particular person wants.
