Chipley Takes

Port St. Joe 19-6

In Friday Tilt

Meet Graceville Here Tonight At
Centennial Field; Bainbridge
Next Friday Night

Coach E. M. Bailey's steamroller
Saints lost 19-6 to the light, speedy
Chipley eleven under the lights on
Centennial Field last Friday night
in the first home game of the foot-
ball season for Port St. Joe. It is
believed that one of the largest
crowds ever to turn out for a grid
tilt here was on hand to see the
local lad's go down to defeat.
The Saints took a 6-0 lead in the
second quarter when Gene Farris
snagged a pass on the St. Joe 40-
yar'd line and ran 60 yards for a
touchdown, showing exceptional
open-field running.
Chipley took a 7-6 lead at the
start of the second half, running
the ball back 55 yards on receiving
from St. Joe, making a touchdown
on the first play, and converting
for extra point.
Coach E. J. Moore's Chipleyites
chalked- up two more counters in
this third quarter, one by an ofr-
tackle run for 35 yards and; the
second' ahter working the ball down
the field from an intercepted St.
Joe pass.
The Saints worked the ball to
the 10-yard line in the last few minti-
utes of play and had a good chance
to- score, but lost the ball 'to the
visitors on 'h intercepted .pass.
. ,The,,Saints, tangle with. Graoe-
ville here tonight at 8 o'clock on
Centennial Field.

Attacks Redistricting Bill
In Florida Supreme Court

The state senatorial reapportion-
ment bill which a special session
of the 1945 legislature enacted af-
ter a 53-day struggle between
North and South Florida has been
attacked' in the state, supreme court
by Senator J. Graham Black of Jas-
per, who lost his senate seat when
the 30th district was moved out or
Hamilton county 300 miles south
to Broward county. The act put
Hamilton county into the 17th dis-
trict with Suwannee and Lafayette
counties. It had occupied, the, 30th
district by itself before.
In his suit, Black contends the
reapportionment act was unconsti-
tutional, alleging that the appor-
tionment act "constitutes a bold
departure from the constitutional


legislature for all state expendt-1
tures. a'nd would' acquaint the
legislature with all of those expen-
ditures over which the legislature
has no control at present.
, "Governor Caldwell is opposed
to this amendmentt" said Tapper,
"stating in effect that it would set
the state back, or hamstring the
state government. However, the
legislature feels that the passage
of this bill would make it possible
for each taxpayer, through his
representative, to have a voice il
the spending of state funds. Certain
lawmakers have said that such a
measure would tend, to retard the
growing tendency of the executive
department to completely dominant
the legislature."

Crowd Enjoys Amateur
Show Wednesday Night

While the "Standing Room Only"
sign was not hung out Wednesday
night at the Port theater when the
Band Boosters Association pre-
sented, its Amateur Night, the the-
ater was. well-filled, and the specta-
tors applauded freely the efforts
Made by the amateur thespians for
* their entertainment.,
Jimmy Greer acted as master of
ceremonies and started the show
off by introducing Hairy McKnight
and Wilbur Smith who played gui-
i tar and harmonica numbers and
i cracked jokes.
Geraldine Parker was, next on
the program and brought down the
house with her rendition of "Only
Five Minutes More," accompanied
.t the pialo by 'Mrs. 'S. L. Barke.
The "Happy Hollow Chorus,"
made up of nine bobby-soxers in
their usual outlandish apparel, gave
forth with entrancing harmony in
singing "Down By the Old Mill
Stream," "Let Me Call You Sweet-
heart" and a medley.
Piano numbers were presented
by Virginia S'watts and Alden Far-
ris, and the program concluded
with a short song skit by the "Sim.
Dirt Daubers From Overstreet."
All entrants were presented with
passes to the theater, and judging
for the $5 prize was done hby the
audience, with Geraldine Parker
receiving the heaviest applause.
Shortness of the program was
idue to insufficient advance pub-
licity, but the Banrd Boosters are
-planning on another' prerantation-
in the near future and anticipate
having a larger number of.entries,
including some topnotch numbers.


State Road Department
Completes Picnic Ground

Probably 'most everyone in Port
St. Joe has been wondering what
that construction work at Mexico
Beach (just beyond Beacon Hill)
was going to be. We personally
were of the opinion that it was
part of the beach development.
Now that the work is practically
complete (only thing yet to be done
is to run in the electric line to pro-
vide juice for the automatic water
plant) we have been informed that
it is a free picnic ground built by
the state road department for use
of residents of this area.
The project consists of concrete
tables and benches shaded by neat
alumninum-covered canopies, barbe-
cue grills, showers and toilets. In
Addition there is a concrete walk-
way down to the beach. At present
water is provided iby a hand pump.

The annual Parent-Teacher As-
sociation Hallowe'en Carnival will
be held tomorrow afternoon and
evening on the vacant lot at the -
corner of Reid Avenue and Fourth
Street, opposite the Port theater,
and from advance information this
year's festival will be a super-du'-
per affair.
Preceding official opening of the
carnival, a parade will start at the
school grounds on Long Avenue
and, headed by the high school
band, will march through the busi-
ness- section of the city, terminat-
ing at the carnival grounds. The
Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts will
follow the band, and the queen of
the. carnival and' her court will be
presented upon a float. She. will be
crowned at the grounds, after which
the various booths will be opened.
Various grades will sponsor the
carnival booths, as follows:
First Grade-Hamburgers.
Second Grade--Cakes, pies and
candy (trusting souls, these home-
room mothers).
Third Grade-Coffee.
Fourth Grade-Soft drinks.
Fifth Grade-Darts. -
Sixth Grade---Wheel 'of eortidne
and pony ride." .. *
Seventh Grade-White elephant,
Seventh Juniorettes-Basketball.
Eighth Grade-Spaghetti.
'Ninth Grade-Hot dogs.
Tenth Grade-Archery.
Eleventh Grade-Fish pond.
Twelfth and 3rd Grades-Bingo.
Teenettes-Fortune telling.
Everyone knows the enjoyment
and, fun they get out of these an-
nual festivals, so come out tomor-
row with a pocketful of change,
have a good time, get some good
food and assist the P.T. A. in carry-
ing on its' good work for the bet-
terment of our schools.


Issuing of Numbers
In City Completed

'City Clerk Mark Tomlinson re-
ports that the job of mailing out
some 1200 letters notifying prop-
erty owners of their street num-
bers has been completed.
There is a possibility that some
may have failed to receive a num-
ber, and if such is the case, they
are requested to call at the city
hall.
This 'is a project of the Junior
Chamber of Commerce, and as it
fills a long-felt need in the city,
everyone is urged to co-operate by
putting up the number assigned, to
them. B. W. Eells' Firestone store
has a few choice numbers, and
Alex Young phoned us yesterday
that he had received a supply at
his Goodyear store. At last ac-
counts, these were the only two
establishments handling the num-
bers, though Barrier's and McCoy'a
dime stores and the St. Joe and
Gulf hardware stores probably will
have them shortly.

By Hurdis Chestnut

The band played for the football
bame last Friday for the first time
in several years. We didn't do as
well as some. people expected, but
for a start we didn't do so badly.
Mr. Beckham promises that we will
improve wit h practice. Several
thiin'gs went wrong, such as get-
ting the music mixed up and for-
getting some items and having to
go back for them. The band will
play at the football game. this eve-
ning and, if possible, all the rest
of the season.
The football bleachers have a
seating capacity for 500 people.
Everyone is urged to come out

When we get through thanking the
'hundreds of wise shoppers who

ABLE, VALUES offered, don't know
if we'll have anything else to say

about how our team is doing than
anything else. But don't get me
wrong, because I like the rest of
the news, too. I would like to see
you back the high school football
team as you did the St. Joe base-
ball team this summer.
DON LINTON.
Dear Don-It isn't our genera*
custom to reply to any letters to
Ye Edi, but there are probably a
number of other former residents
receiving The Star who wonder
about the dearth of news anent the
football team, so we will give you
jur side of the story.
We informed Prof. W. A. Biggart,
Coach E. M. Bailey and Jack Wit-
liams (Jack is supposed to be the
promoter, or business manager, or
something) that we would like to
have the schedule for the season
and a nice writeup on al\ games,
and we were assured by each and
every one of the above named; that
this information would be forth-
coming.
Well, the opening game with Ap-
alachicola we couldn't even find
out what the score was, but we dlid
lTscov.,r a story in the Apalachi-
cola Times the following week giv-
ing an account of the game, whicD
satisfied our own craving for infor-
mation but didn't help our readers
a bit. Then on October 4 the Saints
played the Boys Industrial School
at Marianna and, we understand
(we never could find out for sure)
lost by a score of 54 6.
We don't know whether or not
it. Joe played on October 11; an
open date on their. schedule, but,
just to satisfy you and any possible
other readers interested in the
prowess of the Saints on the grid-
ion. we went out last Friday night
to Centennial Field and; covered
the game with Chipley, a lousy ac-
count of which you will find In this
issue.
We will endeavor to cover all
five of the home games, but unless
.ve get some co-operation, you wili
iust have to guess at what the lo-
cal lads do when they play away
from home.
Trusting this will answer your
query as to why we are not boost-
:ng the Saints' football squad as
you think we should, we remain,
:Sincerely yours,
EDITOR BILL.

Our Country ",- -- Right or Wrong

STUDY YOUR AMENDMENTS
The editor of The Star is not trying to tell
his readers how to vote on the amendments to
the state constitution which the voters will
pass upon on November 5, but we do suggest
that ever) otherr read over and study those
six amendments for, while but two of them
affect the state as a whole, eventually those,
other four, which deal with situations in spe--
cific, counties, may at some future time be
brought up in Gulf county.
Possibly some of our readers don't even
know what a constitutional amendment is,
and we can't blame 'em much when we con-
sider the legal,language with which they are
adorned by the laweyrs who draw them up.
However, we won't go into that now, for we
are interested mainly in resolutions five and
six on your ballot.
These two resolutions will set up a system
of strict budget control and require that the
legislature act on all appropriations, doing
away with continuing appropriations over
which the legislative body has had no control.
Number 4 cn..tl, ballot' wquld sht'u adr-
tor of the budget, who would'ile' responsible
only to the legislature; all state funds would
be under strict budget control. Number 5 on
the ballot would require that laws making the
appropriations for-salaries of public officials
and employes and all other expenses of the
state to be budgeted and passed on every two
years by the legislature and would do away
with all continuing appropriations.
Under the present system' only about 25 per
cent of the state's expenditures are budgeted
and passed on by the legislature. So many con-


tinuing appropriations have. been provided
over the years that it has reached a point
where the lawmakers we send to Tallahassee
have little control over the situation, and the
numerous boards, bureaus and commissions
that have been set up collect and spend as
they please.
Our advice to our readers is to study these
proposed constitutional amendments. Be sure
that you clearly understand them, and then
vote as your own good judgment dictates. But
be sure to vote!

HOW TO KILL YOUR PASTOR
The following article, "Thirteen Tried and
True Ways To Kill Your Pastor," is taken
from the Chicago Sun. It should give food for
thought to church members of Port St. Joe:
Stay awvay from church, especially when
you know only a handful will be present. Stay
away from the Wednesday evening prayer
services because there never is a large group
present.
When the sermon is over, leave the church
in a hurry without speaking a word of encour-
agement to the pastor. When you get sick.
don't let him know about it, and then criticize
hinm for not coming to see you.
Never invite hihi or his family out to din-
nor in your home. They never enjoy a social.
hour. Pay just as. little as you can to the
church. and then always. grumble about the
church wanting money.
Never give up your allegiance to your for-
mer pastor. Constantly quote him in all things
and keep him in contact with everything that
is going on and ask his decision in the matters
of the church. Never give your pastor any-
thing except what you promised. This might
make him think you appreciate him.
Always have some fool excuse when he
wants you to do something 'for the church.
That is what you pay him for. Never call at
the pastor's'home, but raise "Billy Cain" if he
does not visit you once or twice a week.
Don't ever ,offer to help iin any way, for he
might think you are "butting in." Act as cdld
and indifferent toward him as you can and he
will think you are dignified. Never bestow any
kindness upon him or his wife on their birth-
days, wedding anniversary, pastoral anniver-
sary, Christmas, etc. Just forget them en-
tirely, for they night think you love them.
These little remembrances would be too kind.
If these thirteen rules fail to kill him, they
will undoubtedly break him from preaching
and whip his spirit until he is forced to give
tiu. Are YOU killing your pastor?

On Playing


Fiddle Badly

-with nothing more exciting than
old songs, and a glass of moderate
beer or cider.
From where I sit, it's a heap
more important to be a poor fiddle
player, than not to play at all.
More important to be a part of the
American scene-with its commu-
nity music, home entertainment,
friendly glass of beer-than to
hold out for professional perfec-
tion. (Besides, I like to play the
fiddle-even badly!)

A favorite recreation in our town
is getting together in one or an-

There's somebody at the piano; a
guitar; a fiddle player; and Molly
Birtles even has a harp!
What comes out isn't the best
music in the whole world. In fact,
a lot of it is downright bad. But
nobody even thinks to question or

Here's a simple-to-make dessert that adds a party atmosphere;
to any meal.
Coffee Blanc Mange unmolds beautifully and there's plenty'
of good coffee flavor in this attractive cafe-an-lait colored dessert.!.
Of course it's important in .making a dessert of this type to start
with fresh coffee, preferably any kind that comes vacuum-packedl
in a glass jar which can be re-sealed to preserve flavor and
aroma. For 6 servings:
5 tablespoons cornstarch 1I cups bottled' milk --
'% cup sugar I/% cups strong brewed coffee\
. teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon vanilla
Mix together cornstarch, sugar, and salt in thle top part of
a double boiler. Stir milk in gradually, mixing until smooth.
Add coffee infusion. Place over boiling water and cook, stirring
constantly until mixture is thick. Cover and cook for five min-
utes longer, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat -and add
vanilla. 'Turn into a mold, or individual molds, which have been
rinsed with cold water. Chill until firm. Good servJ d!cw_
