Candidates Go

Into Home Stretch

At Mad Gallop


McCarty Has Good Lead In
Governor's Race, Adams
and Odham Follow

By W. S. SMITH, RUSSELL KAY
and JOE ABRAMS
With election day but five days
away, candidates for state office
are swinging into the home stretch
in a mad gallop. With tallies in for
the final Abram's political poll, it
appears that Dan McCarty, with an
estimated 52% of the total vote ex-
pected to be polled, is still high
man on the totem pole.
J. Brailey Odham has been com-
ing up fast since the start of his
talkathons, but still is in third po-
sition, although he claims he has
ousted Alto Adams from that place.
Indications are that he has cut
into both McCarty and Adams, and
it depends on what happens dur-
ing these last few days of the cam-
paign whether he can squeeze into
a runoff with McCarty.
Adams is still in second place,
according to the Abrams- oI1, and
his supporters throughoutthe state
are working feverishly.
All candidates have stepped up
their pace with increased newspa-
per and radio advertising and
door-to-door solicitation in matly
areas.
While the names of Bill Hendrix
and Dale Spencer will appear on
the ballot in the gubernatorial race,
Neither has shown any 'eiden,-e of
strength so far and are expected to
draw only a smattering of votes.

Port St. Joe Is Clearing House for

'Cuba' and 'Numbers' Racket, Says

Bay County Citizen of Panama City


-- -
WHERE THOSE 'CUBA'
AND BOLITA TICKETS
REALLY COME FROM

The editor of The Star learns
from authoritative sources that
the "Cuba" and: "bolita" tickets
that are sold in Port St. Joe come
from Panama City.
The Panama City distributors
receive their tickets from Jack-
sonville, where they are printed,
by express.
So it looks like we toss
the "Clearing House" charge of
the Bay County Citizen right ker-
plop into Mayor Carl Gray's lap.

Asserts That Necessary Pro-
tection Given By Big
Political Power i

The Bay County Citizen of Pan-
ama City has announced in seven-
column screaming headlines., that
"Port St. Joe Clearing House For
'Cuba' Numbers Rackets," basing
its information on the word. of a
negro arrested in that city for the
possession of lottery tickets.
Everyone knows that both bolita
and "Cuba" tickets are sold here
and in Panama City, despite the
pontificial announcement by Mayor
Carl Gray that no bolita tickets
can be found in his bailiwick, but
such stories as these can be harm-
ful to any community. However, we
seriously doubt that much damage
has been done by the Citizen, since
it is purely a political sheet and.
probably has a very limited circu-
lation.
The Citizen says: "Two of the
negroes arrested for possession of
lottery tickets said that the city of
Port St. Joe was the clearing house
for all 'Cuba' or 'bolita' books or
tickets in this area.
"One of the negroes said that he
couldn't remember where the place
was in Port St. Joe, but that it was
a big room and the colored folks

Automobile Safety
Program Launched
Garraway Chevrolet Company Joins
In Drive To Promote, Safety
On Our Highways
The Garraway Chevrolet Com-
pany is announcing participation in
a nationwide .automobile safety
program sponsored by the Chevro-
let Motor Company. This program
launches for the. first time in the
automobile industry a continuous
routine of car checks in order to
.eliminate defects that might lead
to traffic accidents.
"Indorsed 'by national safety or-
ganizations, we feel this is one of
the soundest projects of its kind
every undertakenn" said Charles
R. Garraway. "Over the years it
will do much to reduce traffic a-.,
cident rates in Port St. Joe and ad-.
joining communities."
As explained to the editor of The
'Star by Charlie, in the future all
passenger cars and trucks enter-
ing his establishment for service
will be given a free 10-point inspec-
tion. This examination will cover
the mechanical items frequently_
involved in accidents-tires, steer-
ing, brakes, front headlamps, rear
lights, horn, body glass, Windshield
wiper, rear vision mirror and ex-
haust system. The owner will then
be given a report on the condition
of these features.
"The program was inspired by
findings that virtually one-third of
all cars on the highway are below
safety standards," quoth Charlie.
"In. many cases the owners were
not. aware of the defects in their
:cars, and in a great majority only
a slight adjustment was necessary
to correct the :fault.
"Whether or not' the car owner
decides to authorize repairsin my
shop or elsewhere, we will at least
bring'deficiencies to'his attention."

Our Country I Right or Wrong

WHICH CANDIDATE ARE WE FOR?
In the gubernatorial race, a lot of local sup-
porters of McCarty, Adams and Odham have
been asking the editor of The Star why he didn't
come out editorially for their particular entry in
the rat race.
We tell 'em all the truth that we don't
believe there is any gubernatorial timber in the
lot. Personally, we're going to vote for
Brailey Odham, though we don't believe he will
be our next governor.
In the runoff-if there is one-we will be for
Odham if it's between he and McCarty, and if
it comes down to McCarty and Adams in the
second primary, we'll be for McCarty as the
lesser of two evils.
Now, we hope that answers the queries of all.

We're' continually hearing people kicking and
griping about this and that. The editor of
The Star has only one leg to stand on but he's
not kicking.

A man who is puffed up over prosperity prob-
ably would be doubled up over adversity.


WHO IS GIVING WHOM IDEAS?
In Buenos Aires (which is not so far from
Washington as you might think) President Juan
D. Peron of Argentina has announced that he
will round up rumor mongers "in groups of 200
and send them to build roads in Patagonia so
they can work at something useful."
And at this moment his federal police are "in-
vestigating" the personnel and operations of all
news agencies and foreign correspondents in the
country. These include the Associated Press, the
United Press, Reuters, New York Times and
Time Magazine coxrespondents..The police say
they don't know the purpose of their inquiries,
but perhaps you can put one and one together.
Your friend (he ain't ours) President Truman,
however, who told newsmen that he could, in an
emergency, seize the nation's newspapers and
radio stations, assured them this week that he
wasn't intending to do so. So it's nice to know
where we stand in this "land of the free and
home of the political: grab." Or do we?

Five thousand embattled Daughters of the
American Revolution, in their 61st annual con-
vention in Washington, rejected the plea of Pres-
ident Truman that they support the United Na-
tions, approved resolutions condemning world
government and demanding a "personal" inspec-
tion and tally of the gold in Fort Krnox by a con-.
gressional committee. Apparently the D. A. R.
is too old-fashioned'to think world-citizenship
offers more than our own, and also have a sneak-
ing suspicion that perhaps, with all the crooked-
ness being uncovered in the Truman adminis-
tration, that politicians have been dipping their
greedy paws into the nation's gold reserves.

Uneasy rests the head of the man who can't
remember what he did the night before.

Time was when a fool and his gold were soon
parted. Today it happens to everyone.

Because you can't kiss a girl the way they do
in the movies is fno excuse for quitting.


ST. JOE MILL WORKER GETS
$100BOND FOR NAMING GOAT
Principal door prize offered at a
joint meetingof the southern and
southeastern divisions of the Am-
erican Pulp and Paper Mill Super-
intendents Association held recent-
ly at Jacksonville was a goat, which
was won by Mrs. Ernest Newman,
wife of the president of the Bailey
& Blendinger Company of Union,
N. H.
Newan was the butt of a number
of jokes about the goat won by his
wife, including suggested names.


So he offered a $100 war bond to
the person submitting the best
name for the animal.
Joe Johnson, oiler at the St. Joe
'Paper-Company mill, read of the
offer, jotted down the name "Agi-
tator" and mailed it in. Imagine
'his surprise he other day when he
.received the-$100 'bond and a con-
gratulatory letter.

Spotting Tower Arouses Interest
Much speculation as to just what
the airplane spotting tower being
erected near The Star office is to
be used for has been heard. Those
"in the know" say the 6x6 timbers
already erected are test pilings in
preparation for erection of a rayon
mill; others speak knowingly of
"oil interests" preparing to put in
a test well, while still others say
the county seat is to be moved to
St. Joe and that a new courthouse
is to go up in the block:
P.-T. A. Elects Officers
'The Port St. Joe Parent-Teachers
Association, in the last meeting of
the school year, elected the follow-
ing officers: Mrs. E. C. Lewis Jr.,
president; Mrs. Roy Evans, vice-
president; Mrs. Franklin Jones, sec-
retary; Mrs. Basil E.' Kenney Jr.,
treasurer.
Promoted To Captain
Word was received here by Mr.
and Mrs. B. H. Dickens that their
on Gaston, who is stationed at
Camnr Gordon, Ga., has been'pro-,
moted to the rank of captain.
County Registration Is 563
The local selective service board
announces that 563 men registered
in Gulf county during the 45 to 65-
year registration.
Legion Auxiliary Elects Officers
The American Legion Auxiliry
last Monday night elected the fol-
lowing officers for the year: Mrs.
Madeline Whitaker, president; Mrs.
Ruby Pridgeon, vice-president; Mrs.
Annie Cook, secretary; Mrs. Mil-
dred Johnson, treasurer; Mrs. Sara
Morgan, historian; Mrs. Winona

nor at the rally to be held in, St.
Joe Saturday at 5 p. m. in the va-

tween .stes Kefauver and Richard
B. Russell in the Democratic cor-
ner and :Ike. Isenlower and Bob
Taft in the Republican corner. Ke-
fauver and Russell are both able
and energetic campaigners with ac-
tive organizations in the state, but
Russell is the favorite by about
three to one over Kefauver, and in
the Republican race Eisenhower is
running about two to one over Taft.
'Senator Spessard Holland is a
sure winner. His opponent is giv-
ing him no trouble and it appears
a first primary walkaway in his
case. The same appears to hold for
Tom Bailey in the race for state
school superintendent and for B.
K. Roberts, candidate for the state
supreme court.
Richard Mack, incumbent, seems
to be the No. 1 bay in the race for
railroad and public utilities com-
missioner, although indications are
that Tom Ferguson of Miami is
gaining in strength :and probably
will be in the runoff.
If favorable weather prevails on
election day, the heaviest vote in
the state's history is expected. Nu-
merous organizations spark-plugged

Matter of Closed or

Open Fishing Season

Is To Be Discussed

The question whether there will
be a closed fishing season in the
Third District during the forthcom-
ing 1952-53 season will definitely
be decided by the state game and
fresh water fish commission at a
special meeting to be held at Pan-
ama City next Monday morning at
9 o'clock SCST in the city hall.
"We've been deluged with hun-
dreds of pro and con letters con-
cerning this controversial subject
during the last week," said Ben L.
McLauchlin, commission director.
"This subject, the only one to be
heard by the commission, will be
settled by the five-man board."
Monday's meeting was scheduled
after several recent attempts to
close all Third District fresh wa-
ters to fishing during April and
May met with wide controversy
among conservationists and sports-
men.
"Persons wishing to -be heard at
the meeting must make prior appli-
cation to the commission's office
in Tallahassee," said McLauchlin.
"Only those who make an applica-
tion will be scheduled on the meet-
'ing agenda."

Call Me 'Mister'
Gale Traxler Jr., has received his
.discharge from the armed forces
.and he and his wife recently re-
turned to Pensacola from Califor-
nia. They were guests this week of
Mrs. Traxler's parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Chester Edwards.

distributors can go down there and
get them.
'"The weekly play here in Pan-
ama City is running well over $2,-
000 per week on the 'Cuba' alone
(Saturday) and the entire play at
Port St. Joe is estimated to be well
over $50,000 weekly."
Of course, the Citizen has abso-
lute proof and can verify the total
"take" here and- in Panama City-
or has it? Personally, the editor of
The Star, knowing that chances in
the two rackets were available in
the city, has tried on various oc-
casions to buy a ticket or two, but
to no avail, the sellers being too
cagey to sell to a newspaper man
and have it spread over the front
page of the paper.
We'd like to suggest that Sheriff
Byrd Parker and Chief of Police
Buck Griffin look into this matter
thoroughly to find out just who the
"big political power" is and just
where the "big room" is located.
We'd like to know might want
to buy a book or two of tickets for
speculative purposes.

Promoted To Corporal
Earl McCormick, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Barney McCormick, who is
serving in Alaska with the U. S.
Air Force, writes that he has been
promoted from private first class
to corporal.


DEMONSTRATION CLUB

(Continued from page 1)
baking, vegetable, milk and meat
cookery, budgeting, clothing, poul-
try, home gardens and orchards,
making of soap, vinegar, lard and
perfume, home improvement and
beautification of home grounds.
Most of the homes in the county
were helped with these improve-
ments. Anyone who knows the dif-
ference in the looks of the homes
and grounds'now and the way they
looked 18 years ago will certainly
praise home demonstration work.
In 1943 the school board gave the
Overtstreet community the old
schoolhouse thwe for a commun-
ity building. Since it contained two
large rooms, one was used for a
church and the other for the Home
Demonstration Club's kitchen. In
1944 the county commissioners as-
sisted the club in fixing up the kit-
chen with necessary tables, chairs,
cabinets and equipment.
Our county joined the state coun-
cil in 1949, and we now have a
county council delegate and one
delegate from each club who goes
to the state meeting in Gainesville
each year for valuable training.
They then, in return, teach their
fellow club members the new skills


learned.
Gulf county celebrated the first
National Home Demonstration
Week in May bf 1945, along with
the other counties of Florida. This
week the clubs are celebrating the
seventh Home Demonstration Week
with store window displays, by
placing flowers in public buildings
in Wewahitchka and in the St. Joe
hospital, and with their annual
Achievement Day next Monday at
the American Legion building in
Wewahitchka, which includes a
dress revue and luncheon for the
county commisiqners.

Sammy Patrick has served the
people of Gulf county long and
faithfully In his capacity as Tax As-
sessor and his many acts of- kind-
ness and helpfulness outside the
regular duties of his office has
practically. made him an institu-
tion in the courthouse at Wewa-
hitchka. Being adept at drawing
up minor legal papers and doing
other services for the people of the
county, along with his proven abil-
ity to serve as Tax Assessor, he is
considered the friend of everyone
in need of assistance who calls
upon him. The homeowners of the
county especially should remember
him next Tuesday at the polls, for
he has shown them every consid-
eration and allows no one entitled
to homestead exemption to have it
lapse.
Taking all of these matters into
consideration, the many friends of
Sammy should return him to of-
fice as Tax Assessor, since they
know they will continue to receive
the same courteous and friendly
service they have received during
the many years he has been in
that office.
