Reports of Discs Coming In From
Other Sections of State, But
Nary a One Here

The editor of The Star, who also
reports items of interest to the As-
'sociated Press, has been hovering
over the telephone all this week
expecting to receive a report that
someone, in Port St. Joe had seen
one or more of the sensational fly-
ing saucers that have not only the
nation but the world agog.
But nary a single saucer has 'been
reported, not even a teensy wee.hsy
one,, in spite of the fact that citi-
zens in Tampa, Gainesville and
Clearwater have proudly informed.
the world via AP that they have
observed the mysterious objects
skimming through the sky at un-
believable speed.
They're even seeing 'emn in Eng-
land and Australia now, and here
in Port St. Joe we haven't the
faintest idea of what they look
like. Won't somebody please do a
bit of sky-gazing and discover us
one or more saucers?
We ain't a bit particular as to
size, any old saucer will do. There

by the 'Gators, the Saints held the
Wewahitchka team to twvo scores
in the return game played Wednes-
day at the county seat city, mean-
while chalkiing up seven counters
behind the hurling of Adams.
The Saints took an early, lead in
th e. second when Jenks' walked
Burke with the bases loaded to
move Herring over the home plat-
ter. Th.e 'Gators promptly rallied
and in the last of the second made
two scores on a walk, a hit, a stolen
base. a long fly to right iield and
an e.rror.
St. Joe made-it 2-all in the third
as Belin led off with a single thru
short, Weeks and "Walters sacri-
ficcd him to third and he came
home on an infield hit by Herring.

and 0. McDaniel beat out a throw

bases with but one out. However.

in the sixth, shoving over four
counters after, Adams and Burke
had been put out. Hannon singled
and went to second on a wild pitch
by Jenks and Mitchell hit through
third, for one bag, Hannon going,
to third. With Belin coming. up,

and going to third on a single thru

ended as Cox flied out to short.
Williamis took the mound for We-
wahitchka in the seventh and but
six Saints faced him in the next
two frames..But in the ninth the
St. Joe boys got to him for a final,
counter as he walked Walters who
was sacrificed to second by Her-

A BIT OF SHOPPING IN PANAMA


Naval Reservists on a training cruise of the USS Wisconsin spend
part of their liberty ashore In Colon, Republic of Panama, selecting
presents for the folks back home. They are among 600 Reservists from
the Third, Fourth, and Ninth Naval Districts recalled to active duty
'voluntarily, for two weeks of training aboard the "Wisky." The cruises
'give theiReserve sailors a chance to learn of the latest development
aboard this mighty warship. As a part of the Wisconsin cruises thera
are two days of liberty in Panama for sightseeing and shopping. Mani
of the men bring back perfumes, lingerie, alligator skin luggage, white
shirts, summer suits and other items which are obtainable at.prewai
prices. : (Offimial avv Photorravh'


On ,'arm days, rise before the thermometer does, and
you'll shine 'as a cook without getting all hot and bothered!
Just serve dishes you can fix early in the morning and
heat up .at mealtime. Here are a few that will help you
'keep cool, calm and collect compliments:


BEANS AT THEIR BEST
Add 1 tbsp. prepared mustard to
I can ANN PAGE BEANS
WITH PORK. Saut4 1 medium
onion (finely cut) and 1 medium
apple (unpeeled and chopped)
In 1 tbsp. fat, and mix with
beans.' Bake in
casserole in \\ //
moderate oven, -
375SF., 20 min-
utes. This recipe
makes enough for
4 servings, but
'ANN PAGE BEANS make you
want more ... they're so tender
and tasty. Better buy 'a few ex-
tra cans next time you're shop-
ping at the A&P.
DANDY FOR "DOG DAYS"
It's never too hot for "hot dogs"
at my house. I split them, spread
the cut side with mustard, and
fill with cubed American cheese.
Then I wrap a piece of bacon,
around each one, fasten with a
skewer and broil until the bacon
is crisp and the cheese melted.
Come roll call, I tuck them into
toasted MARVEL FRANK-
FURTER ROLLS from the
A&P, which are so fresh and
delicious my family tucks them
away by .the dozen.


APPETITE PAIT
Ftsh is so light and digestible I
serve it often in summer, vary-
ing the sauce like this: To 1 cup
of medium white sauce I add a
tbsp. of ANN PAGE PRE-
PARED MUSTARD or 6 to 10
sliced SULTANA OLIVES or a
tbsp. of ANN PAGE GARDEN
RELISH. I always keep these
thrifty"pepper-uppers"fiom the
A&P on hand, so I'm never at a
loss for a sauce.

ICY AND SPICY
Ice and spice make tea mighty
nice especially when it's as
invigorating as the famous,
Flavor-Tested teas sold only at
the A&P: OUR OWN, NECTAR
and MAYFAIR. Try serving ond
of these fine \N1 /,q
blends over spiced '
tea cubes made t $
this way: Add 3
cups briskly boil-
ing water to 1%
tbsps. tea, 1 tbsp.
whole cloves and 3 lemon slices.
Steep 3 to 5 minutes; strain; add
14 cu'p orange marmalade.
Freeze in ice-cube trays, place
in 5 glasses' and pour freshly
made tea over them.


AIN'T IT SO?

street with their noses stuck higher than Boyles' sale
signs, are now the- lowly "BEATEN BY WEWA" team.

Our Country T-- Right or Wrong

-REPUBLICANS CAN BE USEFUL
We don't hold much with Republica,.s, but
as the first Republican congress in 15 years
.draws to a close andt we take a look at what
has been accomplished, we can at least say
.that the GOP has joined with the Democrats
in helping this country present a united front
to the world. Incidentally, the way we see it,
the program which the Republicans have
started will provide the campaign. issues for
next year's presidential race.
Biggest domestic issue in the Republican
program was a labor bill. It may be imperfect,
;but it is difficult to see how a better piece of
legislation could have been written on so con-
troversial a matter. It is apparent that Tru-
man plans to use the labor issue as a major
campaign argument when he runs next year.
The Republicans' promised a .tax reduction
bill, and even though the first was vetoed, it
looks like the next one will go through even
if the president vetoes it. Some believe Tru-
malan vetoed the first bill so that he could pro-
pose a tax reduction measure of his own next
year -and gain whatever political profit may
be involved
With Truman's nomination by 'the',Deii6o-
,_crats a seeming certainty, the various forces
-within the Republican party are getting down
,to cases in growing candidates. Dewey
is out in the forefront, but Senator Taft seems
-to have increased his lead over most of the
other prospective candidates. The opposed
Taft and Dewey forces could conceivably
eliminate each other at the convention, and
'that gives us the possibility that neither may
ibe the GOP candidate.
In the meantime, talk of a third'party seems
-to be growing. Its advocates say that the Re-
publicans are hopelessly recationary, and that
the Democrats are, weak, ill-disciplined and
vacillating. Some curious third party tickets
have been proposed, one of them being Heniry
Wallace with Elliot Roosevelt as second man
,on the ballot.
After gazing into our crystal ball for long,
weary hours, we see no hope of Truman being
returned to office, nor can we see ,Dewey or
Taft wearing the presidential toga, so of ne-


APALACHICOLA HAS \
BIG HOLIDAY CROWD
An estimated 6000 visitors were
in Apalachicola last Friday for the
Fourth of July celebration.
.A work boat parade, outboard
motor boat races, water 'skiing and
other features 'were staged. An air
show with parachute jump was i.elc
in the afternoon. Fifty-two planes
from Georgia, Alabama and Flor-
ida flew in for the day's events.
Dr. A. S. Ham of the Oyster City
was presented an airplane by the
junior chamber of commerce.
As part of the festivities at the
airport, a seafood dinner was
served to more than 2000 visitors.
Here Over' Fourth
Jack Frost, Charlie Erickson, Roy
Evans, Dick Mabry and, John Hop-
kins, .all employed at the new pa-
per mill going up at Macon, Ga.,
were here over the Fourth of July
week-end to enjoy the fishing and
visit with friends.


cessity we are forced to conclude that a black
horse as yet unnamed will head the nation
during the ensuing term.

LUXURY OR NECESSITY?
Representatives of nations where there is
no freedom of the press and where the people
enjoy no privileges of personal liberty: have
often remarked that the American system of
individual freedom is a luxury only a rich na-
tion may afford. This is a flimsy excuse for
the brutalities of dictatorship. But would we
be so different from these other nations which
are tobogganing back into the dark ages if we
were haro-pressed by economic chaos? Not it
we are to listen to some of our most notable,
self-styled liberals who claim with fearful
urgency that should another depression de-
scend upon America, she too would abandon
the "luxury" of freedom. Some of them would
even jump the gun by setting up a planned
state now-fixing prices, rigging supply and
demand to artificial standards, controlling
production and, in effect, establishing govern-
ment as a spurious god.
When this country was founded, the going
was tough. Freedom was' the first goal of life.
It was not achieved easily. The privilege of
going to the church of one's choice was not
considered a luxury, nor were ownership o0
property and the right of assembly and free
speech. These things were as vital as air.' To
infer, no matter how indirectly, that they have
become luxuries at a time when millions of
people over the whole world are looking to the
United States to keep alight the torch of
civilization, is inexcusable.
Very likely there will be depressions .In this
country in the future, as in the past. They can
either be short pauses in the march forward
of a great nation, or any one of them can be
the jumping-off point for state socialism and
the subjugation of the people. It will depend
upon our point of view-whether our freedom
is a luxury or a, necessity.

After delving- heavily, and lengthily into
the matter we feel absolutely certain that Pat
and Mike never said all the things that are at-
tributed to them-they wouldn't have lived
long enough to do it.

What the editor craves toknow is where
and how a fountain pen picks up all those fuz2y
little woozles which it is always dragging
around in its teeth.

If the enormous number of people who are
always riding around in their cars, going no-
where, ever get there, there will be quite a
congestion.

Roads to happiness-all over Florida, if y)ou
have a good car, plenty' of gas and the where-
withal.

was weak, worn out, headachy,
swollen with gas' and terribly con-
'stipated. Recently ie. started tak-
ing INNIE-AID and says the feel-
ing like a brick in his stomach dis-
,appeared the second day. Bowels

aches are gone. and he feels like a
new man.

Saints Trim Milton

In Exhibition Game

Inter-State League Leaders Taken
Here July Fourth By
9-2 Score

Behind the five-hit hurling of
Terry Hinote, the. Saints defeated
the Milton nine, leaders of the In-
ter-State League, 9 to 2 in an ex:
hibition game played July Fourth
on the local diamond.
The Milton boys started off in
grsat style, chalking up two runs
in the first inning oiff two hits anac
two errors, but from there on they
garnered nothing but goose eggs.
St. Joe made three counters in
the first frame on three hits and
two errors., Herring, Mitchl.ll '1nd
Belin accounting for the scores.
In the fourth it looked as though
Milton would overcome the one-run
lead of the Saints when Hinote
walked the first three mue-n to load
the bases. However, he came out
of the hole when he fanned the
fourth batter, the runner on third
base was caught out in a hot box
and the. fifth man up flied out to
Weeks in right ifield..
The game rocked along with no
scores being made, until the last
of the seventh, when Manager
'Clayton Mapol1es took Jackson from
the mound and sent in Lynn. Her-
ring started the. ruckus with a
three-base hit to the. rignttlev4
fence, Mitchell, socked a sizzler to
left field, to drive In Herring, ana
Belin took a two-bagger through
Short, Mitchell going to third. Dal-
las Weeks was out on a drive. down
the first base line and Walters was
walked to load the bases. "Slugger"
McCall belted out 4. long drive to
right for two bases, bringing in
Mitchell and Belin, and D. Hinote
hit through the pitcher, with Wal-
ters and McCal' crossing the. plate.
The hitting 'spree ended as T. Hi-
note struck out and Burke failed to
beat an infield hit to first.
Final score of the game was
made in the eighth 'by St. Joe as
Mitchell was safe. on a slow roller
down the 'first base' line, Belin took
two -bases on a drive to left, and
Mitch came home after the cat'cc
as Weeks polled out a high fly to the
right field fence.
'Box score. follows:

St. Joe -- 300 000 51x-42 9 15 5
