SUNTERS 0DO THE DABNDEST THINGS


Hunters are a sub-species of
the two legged mammals which
inhabit this earth and are called
man. They come in assorted. sizes
and colors. Their range is from
the South or the North pole and
back again. They are good and bad
big and little, thin and fat, ricli
and poor and their skins are red
white, black and yellow. In cer-
tain respects they resemble ordi-
nary human beings, but don't let
that fool you, there is a big differ-
ence.
When a man grumbles and
mumbles at buying a car license,
but happily digs down in his jeans
and deposits a fistful of green-
backs for a hunting license, he Is
a hunter. His dress suit may be
a little tight and somewhat frayed
and threadbare here and there, but
his hunting clothes,? Ah, they are
the best, the very best. Five dol-
lars for a white dress shirt is
downright robbery, but ten bucks
for a hunting shirt? Well, that's
something different.
*Getting up at six o'clock in the
morning to mow the. lawn or hoe
in the garden is ridiculous. Didn't
Lincoln free the slaves? But rol-
ling out at 4 a. an. on a frosty
morning to go duck hunting, now
there is some sense to that.
He picks up a little sparrow with
a broken wing and tenderly nurses
it back to health. Florence Night-
ingale had nothing on him. Then
he grabs hi's terrible instrument of
destruction, the twelve gauge shot-
gun, and goes utterly berserk, mur-
dering phesants, ducks and geese
and what-have-you that is unlucky
enough to get in his way and in
the range of his weapon. It isn't
'Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, it's Mr.
,Hunter.
The little woman's washing ma-
,chine is in pretty bad shape. She
should have a new one by all
means. But a little welding here
and there and a new part or two
put's it in fairly good shape again.
At least she can use it for a while
yet. But when the old shotgun be-
gins to go haywire, plunking down
,$76 for a new one is just a mat-
ter of course. A fellow has to have
a gun doesn't he?
-Mr. Hunter you rave and tear
your hair at the sight of the pneat
bill. Those butchers should carry
blackjackss and wear masks. Just
think of the saving on the meat
bill when you bring home game
bird's to eat! Beefsteak at the lo-
cal market is fifty cents a pound,
(but, brother, those ducks cost you
;at least five dollars a pound and
you know it! !

the mound, Thomason also was in
there wielding a hefty bat, getting
three bingle.s out of four trips to
the plate, one being a near homer
for two bags that lacked about a
foot of going over the left field
fence. Dallas Weeks and John
Lane were also credited with three
hits each in four and, five times
at hat respectively. In all, the
Saints nicked the two Marianna
moundsmen for 12 safeties, while
Thomason gave up five hits.
The first two innings were un-
eventful, but in the 'third, Port St.
Joe chalked up two runs when
Thomason hit his two-bagger, Lane
got a one-base hit to send, him
home, John Dendy sacrificed to ad-
vance Lane, Tommy Mitchell was
out on a low fly to second, Leon-
ard Belin was hit by a pitched tali
for a walk, Dallas Week got a' one-
base hit to drive In Lane and then
stole second, andi the side was re-
tired as Bert Cox flied out to cen-
ter field.
The Saints really sewed up the
game in the fifth with four runs.
Lane took two bases on a long fly
to left. field, Dendiy was walked.
Mitchell sacrificed to advance Lane
and Dendy, Belin was deliberately
walked (much to the chagrin of the
loca l fans) to load the bases.
Weeks socked a two-bagger to cen-
ter field to drive in Dendy and
Lane and Belin stole home on the
play for Weeks at second, Cox tooc'
two bags on a double error by the
shortstop who fumbled -the bair
and made a low throw, to first, W.
J. Herring struck out and Frank
Hannon retired the side on, a pop
foul to third.
The local team was euchered out
of a couple of scores in the sixth
when, with Thomason, Lane and
DendWy on base, and but one out.
Belin hit a long fly to left field
which was caught and Thomason
sped' home from third' after the
catch with Lane going to second.
The Marianna manager cla'me'd
that Thomason left the sack be-
fore the catch and therefore was
out when the ball was tossed to
the third baseman. In order to
avert an argument, Manager Rich
Porter conceded the point.
The final score for the Saints
was made in the eighth when
Thomason took one base on a hit
to left field Lane was out on .
long, high fly, Dendy was walked,
Mitchell was out on a fly to cen-
ter fields Belin hit through short
for one base to send Thomason
home and then executed a double
steal with Dendy; McCall was out
at first to end' the scoring.
The Saints trekked to Marianna

this was printed Wednesday), anat

they have not won three straight
games, the fourth tilt will be held

it will be played, in Port St. Joe or

Our Country Right or Wrong


"I'LL SPIT ON YOU," SAYS THE BREEZE
in an editorial last week referring to the
page one story published in The Star anent
the placing of1 a 1an on sports with Wewa-
hitchka schools by the school trustees of Port
St. Joe. the Gulf County Breeze has this to
say, in part, in an editorial headed "You Spit
On Me and I'll Spit On You":
"The Breeze dislikes to 'wash dirty linen'
in its columns, and we only reprint the above
from St. Joe because The Star seems to take
.delight in keeping a stink up between some of
the people of the two towns. It referred to an
.nnpleasantness which occurred here some
weeks ago, and which all our citizens regretted
verve much therefore there is no call
for the local newspapers of the two towns to
appease the hot-heads by publishing the bick-
erings in such untoward happenings as oc-
curred here, and which evidently brought forth
the action of the trustees of the Port St. Joe
schools.. We want to call on the editor of The
Star to act with us in turning thumbs down
on printing things of no great importance"
which han i:l f..-r their purpose the estrange-
ment of ti_ g..... people of. the two towns."
Now, Brother Hanlon, you shouldn't, jump
to such hasty conclusions. For your informa-
tion, the school trustees requested that the
item you refer to be given prominent display.
Seems the reason, was that if the parents of
the kids cut up the way they do. the kids prob-
ably would follow in their footsteps, and the
board didn't want a bunch of St. Joe pupils
returning from Wewahitchka beat up with
pop bottles and slashed with knives.
We know the good people of Wewahitchka
regretted the incident, for we talked with sev-
eral of them right after the fracas and stated
in the article: "A ccrcerted sigh of relief has
been heaved by respectable citizens of Wewa-
hitchka over the fact that there are no more
games between the 'Gators and Saints for the
remainder of the Gulf Coast schedule, for they
think too much of their home town to have its
reputation muddied up by such disgraceful ex-
hibitions as featured Wednesday's game."
Now, as to the "dirty linen." that belonged
strictly to 1,Wewahitchka, and we have a feel-
ing, Brother Hanlon, that the reason it was
not "washed" in the columns of The Breeze
was that orders were issued not to have it
mentioned. The editor of The Star will allow
no one to trample on him, and when someone
runs roughshod over a resident of Port St.
Joe, the editor of The Star is going to stand
up for that person and let the world know
what's going on.:
You "raised the stink" this time. Brother
Hanlon. with your "You Spit On Me and I'll
Spit On You" editorial in which you referred
to the incident as "of no great importance."
It may be of "no great importance" to somet
people, but when knives, blackjacks and pop
bottles are wielded at a public gathering, we
consider it cif mighty great importance.


The worst thing about history is that every
time it repeats itself the price goes up.


An alibi is proof that you weren't where
you were and didn't do what you did.


JUSTICE TO ALL
There are alarming similarities between the
current deliberations over peace treaties ani
the Versailles agreements which followed the
first world war and did so much to sow the
seeds of World War 1I.
Again the great powers are fighting for
spheres of influence. Again the dark shadow
of "balance of power" politics hangs over tli,.
ineetiings. Again the work of the delegates is
hampered 1)bysecret commitments made dur-
ing the war. And again- many of tile smaller
powers are living in fear of being sold out to
the Big Four.
\What seems to have been largely lost is that
space is of sImall importance to a nation's se-
Cunrityv-- bolmbling plane call fly anywhere in
the world in a matter of hours, and a strato-
sphere missile can do it in minutes. A fragile
peace, based upon llforce and fear, will be only
a breathing space between the last war and
the next and from the behavior of Russia,
the breathing space may be' mighty short.
The tremendous problem before the world
is to establish a peace which will be fair to all
nations, which will respect the r-ights of all
nations, and which will make it possible for
all nations to live together in the world with-
out need of resort to arms. That kind of peace
cannot come from deals between the great
powers which use the small powers as trading
material. It can only be built upon the sound
foundation of justice to all.


WAR SCANDALS COMING TO FORE
We'd be willing- to bet anv reasonable sumt
that there would lie a big demand for fumi-
glants in 1Washing-ton next vear if a Republli-
can congress should be returned and start
probing into government records, war con-
tracts and accounts.
Consider, for instance, the current case of
nuitnition-maker Murray Garsscon and his sat-
elites who, with New Deal aid. wangled $78,-
000,000 in war contracts for his "war muni-
tions. empire" existent only on paper.
And another fascinating series of scandals,
if they are ever exposed, are said to have their
roots in the inefficient, haphazard, trick ac-
counting systems developed by federal bureau-
crats who, for a decade or more, have revelled
in the greatest spending binge in the history
of mankind.
Comptroller General Lindsay Warren, tes-
tifying before a senate committee, stated that
U. S. taxpayers have been bilked out of untold
billions of dollars because of waste, ineffici-
ency and the low moral standards of some of
the personnel connected with the letting of
war contracts. Some agencies have so little
information on their war contracts, he said,
that "a ten-year-old moron could complete the
audit in tell seconds."
And things like these are merely the cur-
tain raisers. There's more to come.


INTERNATIONAL GRAB BAG
We are always hearing something about
what America must sacrifice to preserve the
peace of the world, like giving up some of our
sovereign rights, making huge loans to for-
eign countries, feeding hungry throughout the
world, but we haven't seen anyv signs of alny
.other nation making any sacrifices. Recently
it has seemed more like a huge grab bag i)
which it is mostly every man for himself.-.
Sanford Herald.


T -erybody's doing it! Doing v-hat? Get-
ting pensioned for life. That is, everybody but
the taxpayer, who has to pay all the pensions.
We understand there is a plan underway to
have a pension lawt passed for John Q. Tax-
payer. Under it anyone who has paid taxes
for twenty years would go ion the pension rolls
at $100 per month. Well, we can dream, can't
we?N
