THE STAR WITVNTNM lliiiliIIIIIII fiiiliii IIIIIIi lIIIIIIIIIII llIIIIIIIII MISSED HIS STAR Baltimore, Md. April 7, 1945 Dear Editor Bill-Just a few lines to let you know my address now, so that I can get The Star, and believe me, I sure am looking forward to receiving some. It. has been some time since I have seeh a copy. I have made two voyages over and back since I got a Star. The only news I have received from St. Joe has been extremely ead and heartbreaking. May those who sacrifice themselves for t'e peace that is coming to our great nation find'the leaves of grass be greener and God ,bless them whe;- ever they went.- - The two trips I spoke of were to Greece and Italy. It's not so baOf in there as it was in '43 when 1 was there last. TOM M PRISON. SS George1 H. Dern Seas Shipping Company c/o Postmaster New York, N. Y.

"Our contributions will mean more information centers and de- tection clinics, better care for can- cer patients, and will help the so- ciety to' carry forward its program of research and education.

"Military Escort," Just How Many Governors Have Served Florida? Opinion Differs As To Actual Number Holding Office During 100 Years By R. W. PATRICK Member of Governing Board, P. K. Yonge Library of Florida History, Univ. of Florida Is Governor Millard F. CaldweQl the 29th governor of Florid.a? Accounts of his inauguration on January 2, 1945, listed Governor Caldwell as. the state's 29th gov;- ernor, but historians and public officials are not in agreement as to the actual number of governors who have served the people of Florida in the state's 100 years of life. ,Caldwell is the 25th man who has been elected governor of Flor- ida and the 29th man who has ex- ercised the executive power since the state was admitted to the Union in 1845. This is established historical knowledge, but. Gover- nor Caldwell may be classified as the 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th, 29th or 30th governor, according to the de- termination of several questions. He is the 25th governor if only the men who were actually elected to the governorship are included. William D. Bloxham, however, was elected to the governorship twice and served from 1881 to 1885 and again from 1897 to 1901. Ac-' cordling to United States precedent a man who serves a one consecu. arranged in five way psed Fillm'ore. First it was played in its original form, then in the! style of "Cavaleria Rusticana," by Mas- cagna; third;, as Strauus, the com- poser of "Blue Danube," would have written it; fourth, as a mod- ern orchestra leader would have written it, and lastly as played by a military band passing in review. Other numbers on the program'r were: "United) Nations," march ....King "Ponce de Leon," overture .... ........... ..... J. Olivadotl '"La Paloma" ............ YradleT' "By the Light of the Silvery SMoon" .............. Edwardls "Aide," overture .... McCaughe7 "Sophisticated Lady" .. Ellington Medley, "Victor Herbert Favor- ites" .............. -. Herbert time of his service, is counted as one, president, but a man who serves two non-consecutive pe- riods, as Grover Cleveland did, is counted as two official presidents. On the basis of this precedent Bloxham would be, listed as two governors of the state. The National Cyclopedia of Am- erican Biography follows such a policy and counts Bloxham as thu 12th and 16th governors of Flor- ida. Governor Caldwell becomes the 26th governor when Bloxhain is counted twice. Four other men who were never elected but did exercise executive power complicate the problem.

Our Country Right or Wrong GIVE THE BOYS A BREAK It 'has been brought to our attention that those organizations which have been sponsor- ing the Saturday night dances at the Centen- nial Auditorium for the servicemen from Camp Gordon Johnston have, withdrawn their sponsorship (with exception of the American Legion) on the grounds that a lot of the boys now get three-day passes and stay in Port St. Joe 6ver the week-end. So what? The members of these various ,civic groups were all highly enthused when .these dances were first started and many ,provided overnight accommodations for those .boys who wanted to stay over until Sunday. In fact, a list of homes with a spare bed or two was compiled and provided the hostess in charge of the dances, who saw that as many .hloys as possible were provided overnight ac- commodations. It looks as though the novelty has worn off and since it has become a rou- tine job everyone has lost interest. Remember, we have a lot of boys from-Port St. Joe scattered all over the nation and the world and from extracts from letters of some of our own- boys tob their folks' here at home most of them are being, from time to time, 'entertained in private homes at whatever -place they happen to be. Can we do any less Tor these boys from Camp Gordon Johnston who, too, are far from home? They are fight- ing our battles for us while we sit snugly at home and go about our daily affairs, most of -us apparently not realizing or not carilfg that there is a battle to the death raging over the "greater part of the globe and that these boys are preparing to risk their lives for us. Many ,of them- already have been under fire, and many more of'thiem carry scars of battle; Sure, we buy bonds and contribute to the Red Cross and the USO, but there are a lot more things than money that we owe these boys, and-.if we can 'give them a little recrea- tion and-pleasure -in their hours off from camp, for God's sake let's give it to themr- we owe them more than we can ever repay. -NrE OUT OF "IX Statistics compiled by the American Cancer Society reveal that cancer today ranks sec- ond in cause of deaths among the fatal dis- eases. Grimmer still are the facts that one out of every six human beings alive*'and'well today is doomed to an agonizing death from cancer, 'while one out of every three women between the ages of 35 and 60 is earmarked by the grim reaper as a cancer victim. The pitiful thing is that these deaths are needless.. Science and research have already proven that when caught in time cancer can be licked. Ignorance and apathy on the part of the general public alone is responsible for the terrible death toll from this fatal malaay. To offset this, the'American Cancer Society during the month of April, which has been 'officially proclaimed "Cancer Control Month" by proclamation of the president and' author- ity of congress, is 'conducting a nationwide campaign to raise $5,QQG,000 for research, ed- u'cation and care in thf fight against this great national scourge. It is imperative that every man, woman and child volunteer in ti-his fight. You can hejp as a volunteer in the field army and as a con- I tributor to the fund. The Florida division of the field army of the American Cancer Society urges your co- operation and support in this worthwhile et- fort. The invisible reaper is no respecter ot persons YOU could be the unfortunate SIXTH.

During April they can clean house two ways at once-when they clear out the old clothes they can allevi- ate the desperate disorder left in the wake of the Axis scourge. For every man, woman and child in .Port St. Joe there is a double, a human shadow of yourself in ravaged Europe or Asia. But whereas we have thus far enjoyed the comfort and safety of distance from 'the world's battle- fields, your double, wrecked by the receding tide of war, is now among the "statistically naked." Think of it. For each one of us, working, shopping, tending our chores, there is another human being "statistically naked." It is a phrase to remember. It means that your double shares a shirt with six other people, takes turns wearing a pair of shoes. The need is multiplied by millions. All over the world, wherever the blighting hand of the Axis has touched the human race, there is a scar-quivering, naked. During April the United National Clothing Collection for War Relief wants your help in gathering 150,000,000 pounds of practical clothing-the nation's hand and yours, reach- ing out to aid a stumbliing world in a step toward a newer, firmer hope. Think as you collect, -as you houseclean. Warm, sturdy garments. Shoes tied in pairs; plain shoes. Knitted hoods and stocking caps. Any sort of clean bedding. Clothes and more clothes; any kind, every size, but practical. Make up your bundle and take it down to the collection center at the Florida Power Corporation office. And remember, when you tie up your bundle you're not only houseclean- ing your home-you're housecleaning Hitler and Hirohito! MORE PULPWOOD-LESS BLOODSHED Suppose we could move battle schedules ahead all over the world by just one day. Suppose Hitler and his fellow-murderers could be made to surrender 24 hours earlier. And suppose our soldiers, sailors and ma- rines could march up the streetss of Tokyo just one day ahead of schedule. Think of what it would mean in the hearts of America! Think of the i;ninumbered thou- sands of American boys who would riot have to die on that last day of: the war. Perhaps we can save that extra day: Battle schedules depend' on supplies. Vic- tory depends on supply. And supply depends to a gieat degree on pulpwood. Pulpwood- and a great deal of it made right here in Port St.. Joe-makes, wraps or packs more than 700,000 war items. An extra cord of pulpwood means more am- Inunition, more parachutes, more shell con- tainers, more boxes of plasma-and the means of getting them to the front lines where they count. An extra cord of wood cut in Gulf county today may save a life. Every failure of those of us on the home front to do the things that will bring Victory one day earlier will be spelled out in blood on some tinnecessary battlefield on a needless extra day and chances are some of that blood will be that of boys from our own com- munity. For a Full Life: Do more than touch- feel; do more than look--observe: do more than read-absorb; do more than think-pon- der; do more than hear- tHstn; do mo'e'than listen-understand; do more than talk-say .oci"i thing-. .. ..,.- IIIIIIIAllifli liff oflilfilf lllIII IIll l l lIlllllllll IIIIIIlllll LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Blllllltiflllu lliltlllllinlllllillnllltfliimfillllllllll 'i Wildwbod, N.

Fund 3-16 4-13 The game, started promptly at 8 o'clock with,, a fairly large crowd on .hand, andr it was fast all the way through the entire seven inn- ings. The Rotarians came out on to,p of the heap by a score of 15 to 12, with the Kiwanians battling desperately the final three innings to overcome a six-point lead to no. avail. Batteries were Floyd Hunt and Horace Soule, for the Rotarians, with Hunt-doing the heaving and Soule the receiving, and Tommy Owens.pitching for the Kiwanians and Peck Boyer catching. BothT batteries played the full game, but the hurlers were weakening in the .final frame. Outstanding features of the tilt were made by Lamar Miller, Doc Ward knd Jim Bounds. Miller hit a pop fly to Opp Moore at first and when Moore dropped the ball Miller, who was running to first, ,picked it up and handed it to Opp and was promptly tagged out. He made an assist for his opponents, much to his, chagrin. Jim Bounds,' a Kiwanian, in the role of specta- tor, tossed 'back a passed -ball to Joe Mira, who had missed it at *first, 'and thereby caused Ed Ram- se.,, a Kiwanian, to be put out at second. Doc Ward's, contribution to the evening's entertainment was a belly--flopper at third which resulted in his being put out (and lie, was "put out" about it, too).
