Meharg Blanks Oysterinen 5-0 In Second Playoff Game To Put Saints In Gulf Coast League Pennant Tilt County Health Survey Showing Good Results While the four-way county-wide health test being conducted by the state board of health apparently will not exceed last year in the number of tests given, health au- thorities are well pleased with the showing. As The Star went to press Thurs- day morning there had been 1,896 blood tests given and 2,184 X-rays. This compares with 2,348 X-rays given in 1950; 2,201 in 1948, and 1,776 in 1947. Blood tests, in a search for anemia, diabetes and syphilis, were not given previous to 1952. . The survey was to end Thursday afternoon, and it was hoped that those taking advantage of the tests will equal or possibly exceed the 1950 total.

To quote: 'ia'was a cwelE show while it lasted, but what followed on the loyalty business was as sur- prising as if I had been hit over the head with a West Florida light'rd knot." Ed Ramsey, who accompanied George to Chicago, phoned his wife that he was having the time of .his life and was ensconced in a suite reserved for Bob Sikes on the,41st floor of a hotel overlooking Lake Michigan. ------- ------- Return From Vacation Mr. and Mrs. Don Birath and chil- dren returned home Saturday from a week's vacation spent in Acme, N.

Tommy Mitchell flied' out to cen- ter, Leonard Belin singled to left field and Bert Cox was safe as J e Worden at short fumbled his infield hit. Jimmy Philyaw placed a neat hit to left for a single, driving Be- lin in from second. Fish Herring singled to load the bases, and Clay- ton Fewell then proceeded to slam one to the left field fence for two -bases, driving in Cox and Philyaw. Herring crossed the plate as El- more Maxwell, backstop for the Oystermen, let the ball get away from him on the throw from the field. The final score was made in the bottom of the fifth' when, with two gone, Mitchell was walked and Be- lin sent him home with a three-base hit to the left field wall. From then on neither team scored, although St. Joe threatened in the seventh and the Oystermen started a rally in the ninth. Sunday's Game In the first tilt of the three-game playoff, St. Joe defeated Apalachi- cola 9-6 at the neighboring city, scoring five runs in the third inn- ing to overcome a two-run lead held by the Oystermen, and went on to win. Fish Herring chalked up a homer in the third to set the pace for the Saints. Salamona, on the mound for St. Joe, gave up 12 hits and four walks, and Cottie Hendels allowed the Saints 12 hits and one free pass in eight innings, and D. Bloodworth allowed one hit and a walk in the ninth canto. Tallahassee defeated Tyndall 11 to 2 Sunday at Blountstown in the first of their three-game series. --------- Patient At Hospital D. C.

Don is one of the 817 college-stu- dent ROTC men who are there to take intensive study in army ord- nance subjects, drill and physical training. During the busy weeks of camp, Linton, who is a student at Florida State University, has received de- tailed instruction from technical in- structors, using the development and testing areas of the proving ground.

BUZZETT'S DRUG STORE YOUR PRESCRIPTIONS EXPERTLY COMPOUNDED PHONE 50 PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA I WHY SWELTER IN THE HEAT?.. COOL OFF AT BOYLES! Everyone who likes adventure and excitement, who thrills to the beauty of scenic splendor, who has a feeling for drama, romance and suspense will find great reward in "Lure of the Wilderness," Twenti- eth Century-Fox's glowing Techni- color hit playing at the Port Thea- ter Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. "Lure of the Wilderness" takes you into k land that defies the pen- etration of time and man -Geor- gia's danger infested, spectacular Okefenokee Swamp, bringing to the -screen a new background of natural grandeur, a region which rivals the jungles of Africa and Brazil for treacherous underfooting, discern- ing sounds and primitive wildlife, a place in our modern time where men disappear and are never heard of again. Against this unusual background is woven an unusual tale of primi- tive emotions and rugged adven- ture, a story of a man and his daugh-, ter, fugitives from the law, who have lived in the swamp for eight years until their sanctuary is in- vaded by a young Georgian. Before the narrative winds its course, you are treated to a death-defying un- derwater battle between man and alligator, the onrushing charge of a black panther, the sting of the deadly cottonmouth and the pul- sating hunt for otter and black bears. Jean Peters is perfect as the -un- civilized girl who darts through the foliage with bow and arrow. Jeffry Hunter, as the youth who wanders into the swamp, comes into his own with a fine portrayal of a native Georgian. You would not believe it if some- one told you such a place existed in modern America. But it does. Don't fail to see this picture playing at the Port Theater. Have Guest From Panama City I Mrs. M.

Coincident with the navy's announcement that one of their rockets has traveled at a speed of 1,238 miles per hour, thus smashing the sonic barrier like a baseball going through the school- house window, comes word from the air force that no less than 60 flying saucers have been re- .ported within a two-weeks period. Among these observers were two veteran pilots who saw "eight glowing, red-orange discs" traveling, they said, at 1000 miles per hour. Far from disparging any such expert testi- mrony, we are passing on this information for the benefit of readers of The Star so that, if you wall into your kitchen some morning and find a Mar- tian with a pointed head and four arms foraging for breakfast, you will keep calm and show him how to use your orange juicer and electric perc- olator. After all, it pays to be a good neighbor. A court in New Mexico awarded a store clerk $309 in compensation, damages and medical ex- penses for injuries suffered in fitting a girdle on a customer. The plaintiff received a sprained wrist and finger. That's what she gets for trying to make a molehill out of a mountain. Stay on your job, work hard and pay your taxes, think how many people working for the government are depending on you.-North Platte (Nebr.) Lincoln County Tribune.

County In Gas 'Buffer Zone' Gulf county has been included in a "gas buffer zone" of 162 counties lying west of the eastern seabord rationing area created by the War Production Board, and gasoline de- liveries here have been cut 25 per cent. The cut in supply is designed to prevent rationed motorists from crossing the boundary line to get unlimited motor fuel. Service sta- tidns in the zone can operate only '72 hours per week and not more than 12 hours daily. Personals Pvt. William J. Edwards of this niture store. Chief of Police M. O.

Since the turn of the century, when oil drillers discovered sulphur beneath the Gulf Coast in Texas and Louisiana, America has become the world's major producer of this indispensable mineral Sulphur, pumped in molten form from great underground salt domes, is over 99 per cent pure as it comes from the wells. A Boon to Engineers A new iron is now available -for . industry. Unlike ordinary cast-iroi it is not brittle and can be bent or twisted. The new material, known as Ductile Iron, can be made readi- ly and economically and at the same time has several times great- er strength than ordinary cast iron with greater ductility and shock re- sistance. I OLD STUFF The editor of The Star has just received a re- lease from the U. S. Department of Agriculture and if the prognostications of their statisticians turn out correct, by 1970 the American farm, nostalgic centerpiece of song and story, will be about as romantic as the St. Joe Paper Company mill or Frank Hannon's insurance office. There will be 400,000 less farms, a total of a bare 5,000,000, and 34,000,000 more people to feed. In the meantime, the rush of farmers and farm workers for town will continue, 6,000,000 having left in the last four years. But-we're not going to starve, they tell us- nor will we have to live on synthetic foods. By 1970 the 5,000,000 farms will be business insti- tutions, the old-fashioned family-farm merely a tender memory. On these highly-mechanized, precision-operated farms every cow and chicken, pig and sheep will have a production quota to meet, and the mere handful of supermen who will run them will be too busy to go fishing or waste time going to town or reading the mail- order catalog or shooting a deer or a quail in or out of season. Somehow, 1970 seems a bit too soon for all this. It will take a lot of doing to stop the spring song of the meadow lark, the enticing siren song of the brook over the stones, to stifle the perfume of fresh-cut hay or the urge to pet a starry-eyed calf, to say nothing of the narcotic delight of just lying on your back in a clover patch and watching the clouds roll by. The CIO wants union barbers to put in a good word for labor while chatting with customers. Well, when a barber has a razor at one's throat, the customer cannot do much except listen. Which reminds us of the one-armed customer who got into the chair and the barber asked: "Haven't you been in my chair before?" "No," replied the customer, "I lost my arm in a saw mill."-Coatesville (Pa.) Record. The admonition that it is unwise to swap horses while crossing a stream has its origin in venerable folklore. Lincoln first gave it political significance, using the expression several times in his campaign of 1864. A contemporary ob- server opines: "One good reason for swapping horses is that it takes the new ones a little longer to find the feed box."-Chicago Northwest Times OTTO- By Charlie Garraway We have cars that fit any family or any cir- cumstance.

The best season, the experts say, is early fall when nights are cool, days warm and there is frequent rainfall, the ideal growing combination They Loved Beauty, Too At the time'of Louis XVI, highly polished dark woods were used for the large pieces of furniture. The lighter pieces were often painted or enameled in white or paletints -or lacquered in the Chinese man- ner. Even the quaint harpsichords of the dhy were often painted a pastel tint overlaid with delicate garlands and Watteau figures.

Right now several Florida cities are consider- ing the proposition and some pretty hot debates between proponents. and opponents have developed. Those favoring the use of fluor- ine contend that it will protect the teeth of children and prevent tooth decay. Many dentists advcoate its ise, as do some doctors aid health -authorities. For the most part, the general public is completely in the dark on the subject. Stop the average citi- zen on the street and ask him if he thinks it would be good or bad to add fluorine to his drinking water and he will give you a blank look and ask: "What the heck is flour- ine?" Most of the supporters of the fluoridation advocates come from so-called authorities, and this has been publicized and commercially exploited by those who would profit from installations, supplies and equipment that would have to be installed at the taxpayers' expense once the city council gave the pro- ject the green light. Not all medical or dental authori- ties. are in-favor of the fluorine pro- gram, and some are very much op- posed to it. Private citizens who have' studied 'the proposition are questioning either the necessity or wisdom of including an inorganic chemical, know. to 'be poison, in public drinking water. Whether. fluorine does or does not benefit a person hy;t e trn, tooth decay, when w- .?' ,-m t.,r 1 to include it in our drinking:water we are compelling every citizen to subjecf'himself to this toxic chemi- cal whether he wants it or not. The case for fluorine is far from definitely determined. Its use in drinking water has not been prac- ticed a sufficient -length of time to learn whether in the long run it will prove beneficial or not. While it may help prevent tboth'decay in children, no one knows what the accumulation of this poison in a person's system over the years may do to a person in later, life. The average American citizen is already consuming day after day quite a considerable quantity of toxic, chemical substances whose lohg-range effects on the human 'body are not known. To add an- other chemical (which may or may not have certain ,anti-tooth-decay factors for young children) might prove to be a costly and colossal 'blunder, since the full effects of such action will not be known until these children reach middle age. In a letter to the editor of the New York Times an eminent doc- tor, Ludwik Gross, pleads for cau- tion and delay. "The tests thus far performed db not indicate any im- mediate toxicity," he says, "Long- range studies, however, are still needed4,and'these require prolonged observation." Dr. Gross reminds us that many chemicals that were thlough.,to be harmless were later discovered to be toxic and dangerous over a pe- riod of time. Urethane, for instance, was fre- quently used in sleeping pills until thle National Cancer Institute dis- covered that adding 'a very small quantity of a dilute solution of ure- thane to the drinking water of rats I - fects may *be over a long period of time. It is not necessary to inflict fluor- ine on an entire population just 'because some so-called health au- thority or medical group endorses it. Anyone wishing to experiment with this toxic chemical is free to do so on his own. They may obtain fluorine and, put it in their chil- (Continued on page 8) Your vote for Clyde .Bozeman for Tax Collector will be sincerely ap- preciated. .adv.
