Deer Hunting

Season Set For

Nov. 0 To Jan. 5

Commission Also Sets Dates For
Quail, Squirrel; Government To
Set Date On Ducks, Geese

A state-wide uniform deer sea-
son from November 20 to January
5 was adopted Monday by the state
game and fresh water fish commis-
sion for the 1947-48 season. How-
ever, the days of the week on
which hunting will be allowed will
vary with the five conservation
districts.
Hunting, in the third district (in
which Gulf county is located) will
be allowed every day in the week;
the second and tifth districts' will
prohibit hunting on Mondays, Wed-
nesdays' and Fridays, while' the
first and fourth districts will pro-
hibit hunting on, Mondays, Tues-
'days and Wednesdays. The fifth,
or central Florida district, how-
ever, will allow consecutive hunt-
ing the first six days of the season.
The season on turkey is. the
same as. for deer in the first, sec-
ond and fourth districts, November
20 to January 5, and from Novem-
ber 20 to February 1 in the third
and fifth districts.
Quail and squirrel may be killed
from November 20 to February 1
in the first, second, fourth ana
fifth districts, and from November
20 'to February 15 in the. third.
The commission will recommend
that 'the federal, government set
February 'r.r as- t clctoshig date,
for dove, with the opening date
- fixed as. early as possible. The sea-
son on duck and geese also will be
set by the federal government, but
hunting will be allowed every day
in all districts during the season
on these fowl.
The staggered or alternate, days
in which deer may be killed in the
various districts apply to all game
except duck and geese.
'During the session of the com-
mission at Tallahassee, representa-
tives of the Florida Wildlife Fed-
eration and other sportsmen's or-
ganizations urged adoption of uni-..
form state'-wide laws for all game
and fish.
The commission chairman said
"all the districts want a uniforin
law, but th-ey want the other dis-
tricts to accept their law." 'He
added that because of local condi-
tions, it is impossible to have a uni-
form law until the people them-
selves want it.

Apalachicolan Meets
Captain of Sub That
Sank Tanker Of f Cape

According to a story in the Ap-
alachicola Times, 1st Lieut. Harry
A. Buzzett of that city, who just
recently returned from Germany,
while in Berlin ran into the captain
of the submarine that sank the
large British tanker in July 1942
about 15 miles off Cape San Blas.
The Times quotes Buzzett as
follows:
"While riding down Potsd'amer
Strasse two hours before I left Ber-
lin, I stopped to inquire -of a Ger-
man where Kaiserallee was .lo-
cated. When he answered me in
perfect English, I asked where, he
had learned to speak it, and nim
reply was, 'In a prison camp in
America.'
"While conversing with him fur-
ther, he told me that during the
war he was a submarine com-
nender operating in the. Gulf of
Mexic,o and the Caribbean Sea.
"I asked him it he knew where
Apalachicola was located and he
replied. "Why, certainly,' and took
me& into a bookstore and 'pinpointed
the location on a globe. Next I
asked him if he ever did any work
around home, and he described the
British tanker ,sunk near here by
name, class, weight, number and
exact location, including the (G'at.
that he sunk her.
"He stated also that after he
'sunk the ship he'proceeded up to
the six-mile bridge and submergedt
for 'two days, and that he slipped
out during the night,.
"Captain -Joparinfl ---Segree and
Dick Heyser state that the bay
will not float a submarine. Whether
he did come into the bay or s-ot, we
will never know, but it is an estab-
lishied fact that 'he did sink the
English tanker.
."He also stated that he had often
looked at Apalachicola through his
periscope, describing to me the
water tower, church steeples and
'other prominent features of our
town.',

second,, with Mitchell crossing tie

the side was retired by Harold and

on infield hits. Score 2-0.
It looked like more counters fjo

and' Hannon and Walters were hit
by the pitcher to load, the bases.
How.e.ver, Robbins was caught at
home far the second out after a

loaded when Mitchell was handed
a walk, but Navy came out of the
hole safely when Weeks' flied out
on a long hit to center field.
Aavy tied the score in the sixth
on a walk, a long hit to center'and
a sacrifice, and at that point Belin
and' McCall went in in an attempt
to remedy ,the situation.
Hinote was walked and McCall
struck out, with Hinote tagged at
second on a steal, casting a pall of
gloom over the local fans. Belin ,
was handed a deliberate 'walk, but
nianaged to mark up the winning
run as the catcher tossed the ball
away in a play for him at sec'
ond, allowing him to cross the
plate. This ended the scoring as
Robbins and Burke were walked
and the side retired when Robbins

The spoken word is given scant attention; the printed word
is thoughtfully weighed. The spoken word barely asserts;
the printed word thoroughly convinces. The spoken word-
is lost; the printed word remains.

Our Country Right or Wrong

SPENDING BOOM SLOWING DOWN
We don't believe it will come as a shock to
readers of The Star to be told that the great
postwar spending boom is but a shadow of its.
former lusty self. It has tapered off in all lines,
and in some fields it has practically come to
a halt. Many of the present speculations of
economists deal with the question of whether
we are approaching a depression or a reces-
sion (the latter is a sort of midget or pocket-
size depression). Opinion on this varies from
the optimists who think, business and employ-
ment will hold at high levels to the pessimists
who forecast darkly that what is coming will
make the '30s look like giddy prosperity.
Regardless of the guesswork, some of the
economic facts are worth- looking at. The na-
tion's families are going back to the good old
custom of living off next week's paycheck,
which means that the cash buyer is becoming
harder and harder to find. In other words,
folks are returning to the.dollar-down-and-
dollar-when-you-catch-me system of buying
what they want, and as is to be expected un-
der these conditions, savings are dwindling,
The volume o'f business is showing signs,.;f
suffering" from these trends, and as is to be
expected, businesses of the luxury character
have been hit hardest so far. And now semi-
luxuries are facing a steady drop in buying.
In more staple lines, business is still good,
but there are clouds on the horizon. Produc-
tiqn is rapidly making up the backlog in the
majority of lines, and has more than caught
up in some. Retailers are buying much more
carefully than in the past. Inventories are
growing rapidly in both wholesale warehouses
and on the shelves of stores. In fact, some
local merchants are becoming overstocked we
believe, for looking at last week's Star we
find the'Gulf Hardware & Supply Company,
Boyles Department Store and the St. Joe Sup-
ply Company offering big reductions on many
.articles. Once hard-to-get items (men's shirts
and nylon stockings are good examples) are
niow in almost superabundance.
The building boom, counted on to take up


the reconversion slack, has failed to live up to
expectations. This was one of the great fi-
ascos of the postwar economy. The experts
confidently figured that millions of homes and
other residential units, to say nothing of a
vast amount of industrial construction, would
be needed. It may still be needed-but people
just won't pay the current prices if there is
any way to avoid it. There has been consider-
able business construction in Port St. Joe and
some residential construction, but all of those
who have built or are building today admit
that their costs have been about twice what
they should be.
Some producers, such as the motorcar coil-
panies, still have big backlogs of orders, and
'sales are no problem. But that doesn't mean
that everything is rosy. Manufacturers and
dealers are definitely worried as to what will
happen once the backlog is wipe out. Many
a prospective buyer, including the editor of
The' Star, has shaken his head at, sight of the
price tags on the new cars, and orders have
been cancelled right and left, even as Otto
Anderson and C..A. McGowin can testify.
What it all adds up to is that the basic cost
of just plain living is absorbing most of-the
average family's income, and it has less and
less left for other things. That is the growing
problem we have not yet .been able to solve.

OUR NAVAL RESERVE UNIT IS BORN
The editor of The Star at every available
opportunity has been talking and writing about
securing a naval reserve unit for Port St. Joe,
and has been working with Tom Coldewey,
Vic Anderson and the district recruiting offi-
cer toward that end. And last; night our dream
was. realized when a number of young men
were sworn, into the reserve and our local
unit was born.
The'naval reserve provides an opportunity
to eligible men between the ages of 17 and
39 to perform a distinct and essential service
to their country-and to become proficient in
skills which are of value to them in civilian
pursuitss. ..
Reserve instruction involves spare time
courses not only in the milit-Ir sciences, but
in a long list-of technical subjects and trades.
Recreational activities are regularly sched-
uiled by reserve units, and those on the coasts
of the nation are assigned navy ships for short,
,training cruises in local waters.
We earnestly urge every young man in Port
St. Joe to consider joining onu local unit since
th'e reserve offers its members a splendid op-
porttunity to serve both the nation and them-
selves. War veterans will be given the grades
they held when on active service.

APPRECIATION
Dear Editor Bill-I -want to take
this method' of thanking the many
citizens ot Port St. Joe for tha
kindnesses' shown me during my
recent illness. It is quite wonderful
to realize how many friends one
has during periods of adversity..
I am happy to advise. that I am
now getting back to my office a
few hours a day. I hope to be back
on schedule soon.
Most important oIl all, I caught a
3-pound -pom'pano in front of my
house on June 24 in .20. minutes of
fishing time.
Sincerely,
Thos. R. L. Carter.
(Ed' Note: What "Alphabet" failed
to mention was that before he
landed! that pompano he caught a
small catfish that finned him in
th-e. hand, four times.)

THRIFTY THOUGHTS
To get almost twice as much juice
as usual from a lemon, steep it in
hot water a few minutes before
you squeeze it.
To satisfy big appetites at small
cost, choose ANN PAGE FOODS
at your A&P. You'll find every-
t' _.g from ready-to-eat main
dishes to easy-to-fix desserts in
this quality-famous family of pro-
ducts. And when you see the mod-
est prices on all the ANN PAGE
foods, you'll understand why
they're called "The Thrifty 33."
To freshen stale rolls, sprinkle
them with water, wrap in brown
/paper and warm in a hot oven.
LOTS FOR LITTLE
My favorite, day is WOMAN'S
DAY-that grand magazine you
can get at A&P Stores and no-
where else. It's filled with new
recipes, delightful, menu sugges-
tions, fashions and movie news, as


well as fascinating fiction. I'd cab
it'a bargain at five times the nickel
it costs. What's more, WOMAN'S
DAY saves me plenty with its
budget-stretching ideas. Get a
copy at your A&P. You'll love itt
CEREAL SWEETS
The nutty flavor of SUNNY-
FIELD WHEAT PUFFS from,
the A&P is delicious in cookies
made like this: Beat 2 egg whites:
with 14 tsp. salt till foamy. Add-
/4 cup sugar
gradually, beat- -pIlg// I
ing till whites
stand in peaks.
Beat in % cup
peanut butter.
Fold in 2 cups
SUNNYFIELD WHEAT PUFFS
and 2 tsps. 'grated orange rind.
Drop by teaspoonsful on cookie
sheet. Bake in moderate oven 375
