THE STAR The Home Newspaper of Northwest Florida's Future Industrial Center VOLUME IX PORT ST, JOE, FLORIDA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1946 NUMgBER 491 Oystermen Again Fall Before Saints In Labor Day Tilt iln Spite of Series of Losses To St., Joe, Manager Demands Five-Game Series In an exhibition game played here Laibor Day the Apalachicola .Oystermen for the umpteenth time went down to defeat at the hands of the Port St. Joe, Saints, chamn- pions of the Gulf Coast League, pas Lefty Thomason held them to! eight hits and he and his team mnates nicked Rutherford' for eight hits to make the final score 4 2. The visitors took the lead in the second inning when they managed to shove one run across the plate, and the joy of the Apalachicla fans who crowded the grandstand was unconfined. But the Saints evened things up in the third when Frank Hannon streaked home from sec- ond base on a two-base hit to right field by Thomason Neither team scored in the fourth and fifth, but in the sixth Apalaohi- cola marked up another counter. Not to be outdone, and just to keep things even, the Saints proceeded to do likewise when Leonard Belin came in from second on a two-base hit to center field, by Dallas Weeks. The seventh was uneventful, ana in the eighth St. Joe cinched the game by chalking up two runs. Tommy Mitchell was walked, Be- lin was safe on a sacrifice when the third baseman fumbled., Weeks slapped-a low one over second to send Mitchell home but was caught out at second, with Belin going to third; Bert Cox hit a long one to centerfield allowing Belin to come home' after the catch, and W. J. fHerring retired the side when he s rnuck out. Apalachicola failed, to score in their half of the ninth, although. (Continued on Page 2) County Farmers Making Progress Agriculture Coming To the Fore, Says County Agen.t, With Inter- est Shown In Reforestation Substantial- progress is being made *in Gulf county agriculture, according to County Agent C. R. Laird. One example of progress cited by" Laird is the Increased pro- duction of corn andl chufas for live- stock feed, the larger acreages and yields indicating a definite trend forward more production of feed on the farm for hogs and cattle. He also reports that more farmers than ever are having their hogs immunized against cholera. Other significant developments. as reported by the county agent: More and better home gardens are being cultivated; many farmers are ordering seed oats to plant for win- ter grazing; at least 30 acres will be planted to blue lupine, the top- notch winter cover crop, this- fall, as compared with no plantings last year; 30 acres of white Dutch clover will be planted in October- wniore than twice the acreage planted last-;year; three farmers recently bought 100 pounds of Pensacola ba- hia grass seed' for planting as permanent pasture next spring-35 acres of permanent pasture that were planted during the summer are-now developing a good grass sod. Laird also reports that Increas- ing-interest is being shown in re- forestation throughout the county. HERE WE GO AGAIN! With the war ended, the publisher of The Star, along with a lot of other newspaper publishers, believed that the newsprint situation would improve rapidly-and it did for a time. But now the situation is shaping up far worse than it was during wai;time, and not only ,tlat, but there has been a steady increase in the price. During the past year we have put quite a number of new subscribers on our mailing list, but now we find ourselves in the position of having too many sub- scribers. Consequently, beginning this month, those sub- scribers who fail to renew their subscriptions within two weeks after receiving their expiration notice : will be dropped from the list and will be unable to renew until the newsprint situation clears up. We have studied the situation carefully, and be- l* eve that if we can eliminate two hundred subscribers we can continue to get out six and eight pages each week. It hurts us to do this, but rather than cut down on"the size' of our paper we prefer to lose some subscribers in order that those remaining on the list may get their money's worth in reading matter. So, when you receive a notice that your subscrip- tion is about to expire it will behoove you to send or bring in the money for its renewal if you would continue to get your Star. BR'ER STORK HAS HECTIC WEEK Silas S. Stork, local deliveryman for Storks, Inc., "Purveyors of Better Babhies," stopped in at The Star office yesterday in order to make an appeal to the 'better nature of residents of this area. "It's getting terrible," he said, "the way people are hAving babies, around here. They have no consideration for us Storks at all. In order to abide by union regulations, we've been- ruling three shifts to the Port St. Joe Mti- nicipal hospital the past week, and, since it is off the regular delivery route, we've been hard-pressed to arrive on schedule. What I am asking 'is that the people in this, section space their additions to the family farther apart-let 'em get together and cuit it down to about four de- liveries a week-we could 'handle that without a bit of troublee" So saying, Silas gave us' the following list of arrivals at the mu- nicipal hospital, tipped his ha-t with his, left leg, clacked his bill a couple cof times and took off into the wide blue sky.

This was made known yesterday by E. Clay Lewis, .Jr., chairman of the Gulf county chapter of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. I "So 'far this year," Lewis said, "according to 'the U.

In our county no cases of 'polio have been reported thus far in 1946. "The Gulf county chapter," Lewis continued, "has this year to date spent $160.20 in providing for the crippeld children's survey and as- sisting in the establishment of a 'treatment center' in North Flor- ida, at Talalhassee, where GuM county patients will be sent. "We cannot tell how severely we may be hit, but the national foun- dation andl Its chapters are pre- pared as never before.

In Washington there are men to argue both ways, says Wesley Price in his profile, "Pink Pepper," in the August 31 issue of The Sat- urday Evening Post. "When he first came to the senate, Pepper followed the straight Roosevelt line. People said he was a stooge, a mere loud mouth from the South," Price reports. "Now he is taken seriously. Senators who know the po- litical facts of life in Florida are outraged when Pepper lectures them on liberalism. They detect a note of self-righteousness. His technique is guaranteed to make enemies. It explains in part why Pepper is unpopular in tlh\esenate; why his influence there is small for a man of his abilities." Victims of Senator Pepper's oratorical su- periority fear him; others are mistrustful be- cause he is aloof, elaborately courteous and watchful, according to the article. Outside of Washington, the senator has many supporters-union members, Roosevelt Democrats, many liberals and "plain Joes who like politics with a wallop." Price asserts. "The Communist press whoops it up for Pep- STARDUST and MOONSHINE 'Woe is me! And that's about the way we feel after making a Labor Day week-end trip to Tuscaloosa, Ala., and back in our '38 Plymouth and not daring to drive over 40 or so for fear the old jaloppy might fall to pieces on us, even as the wonderful one-hoss shay that ran for a year and a day. Only excitement on the trip was two bee stings suffered, by Ye Ed. You know, in all our 46 years ot life, we'dl only been stung once 'by a bee, and that was when we were about six years old and plucked one of the varmints off a flower to show to our grandmother (gullible little cuss, weren't we?) Now, 40 years later, we. get two stings in the course of a few hours. While driving along above Ozark we ,put our hand down on the seat and an Italian honey, bee promptly stung us in the finger probably haat been lying in wait for us for some time. Then, just south of Wewa- hitchka, a bumblebee came storm- ing in through the open window and stabbed us In that part of our anatomy which would stick out farthest north if we were facing s0uth .. and is the reason we are standing up to write this. But speaking of-Tuscaloosa, it is a beautiful little city surrounding the state college. It has extremely wide streets in the business sec- tion and the city commissioners, apparently in a devilish mood at the time, set the traffic lights to change at 10-second Intervals. . Pedestrians, waiting for lights to change to red', must be all set like splrintars and start their dash as per because he has been taking Russia's side in international disputes." "Pepper's ultra-liberal policy is a blend of political expediency and deep conviction," Mr. Price writes. "He has been a laborer himself" . He favors government relief for anyone who is out of luck. He wants cradle-to-the- grave security and would make Uncle Sam a professional wet nurse, charged with the re- sponsibility of looking after an unfortunate critter he pleases to term "the Common Man." "Without a. friend in the world-except Senator Pepper, of course, and Secretary of Commerce Henry A. Wallace the Common Man is in a hell of a fix," writes Price. "He has a toothache, a psychoneurotic twitch, a pregnant wife and no money for the doctor. His children suffer from vitamin deficiencies, the eldest girl is a juvenile delinquent and the youngest boy has a bad squint. The Common. Man lives in a trailer, drinks contaminated water, doesn't. understand birth control and has been fired from a job at starvation wages for speaking to a union organizer. The organ- izer was beaten up and chased out of town. The Common Man wrote. his congressman but got no answer because he had been robbed of his vote by the poll tax. "That seems to be the Pepper view of the Common Man. Consequently he fights to abol- ish all poll taxes, to widen the base of social security, and give unions more and more power," states Price. "Pepper won't admit that Communist par- ties in the United States and other countries are connected with Moscow," the article says. " .-. In this position lie is far to the left of left-of-center New Dealers. He has sailed more and- more to larboard since Roosevelt died. Liberals are still within hailing distance, but middle-of-the-roaders can barely make him out, hull down on the pink horizon. The conservatives can't see him at all. They're trying to locate him with radar." With the opening of the Port St. Joe pub- lic schools next Monday, the outlook is par- ticularly bright for a most successful year, since capable teachers have been secured and their salaries substantially increased. soon as the color changes, since! motorists seem to take a-delight in ' near. misses, and as soon as the green signal flashes, dive their cars at those unfortunates who have been a bit tardy in getting started across -the street. At times large groups are caught half way across and huddle together for mu- tual protection, looking like a bandt of sheep caught in a snowstorm. S. And, Just to add a sporting touch as it were, police officers crouch behind parked cars and pounce gleefully on unsuspecting pedestrians who haven't quite com- pleted the marathon' at the color change and hand them tickets fot jaywalking. It is indeed real exciting, not to mention the sport- ing and' gambling angles, to be a pedestrian in Tuscaloosa. We went to that 'Ala.bama city to visit Mr. and Mrs. Bill Coody, and the first thing we noticed as we entered their apartment was a picture of Ye Ed and. frau proml- enntly displayed. f Looks like Bill and his wife. are like most young couples who have rich rela- tives coming to visit-they place pictures of their expected' guests in prominent places to impress them with hopes of being remembered in the will except that we aren't rich.
