R. tmithi As President of Associatil p The Port St. Joe Band Boosters Association held its first meeting of the 1952-53 school year Thursday night of last week at the band house, .and at that time John R. Smith, retiring president, turned the gavel over to Wilbur L. Smith (no relation)., president for the en- suing year. Others officers named were Terry Hinote, vice-president, ,and Sidney Jammes, treasurer. A secretary will be elected at a fu- ture meeting, Mrs. Jammes serving in that capacity temporarily. The association laid plans for ways to assist the high school band in purchasing music, repairing in- struments and buying five more band uniforms. A committee was also appointed to distribute the uni- forms Tuesday night to members of the band. This will be the third season for the organization. Under Harry Mc- Knight, the first president, the as- sociation purchased 35 metal music stands, bought six majorette cos- tumes and purchased 'extra music for the band. The most important work of that year was laying the, groundwork-of raising the fund to' the music department of the' St Joe schools from the county board- of education from $50 to $1000 Last year, under the leadership of J. R. Smith, the organization bought 30 new band uniforms and? arranged for another $1000 from the school board for this year. The parents of the band members recognize how fortunate this school is to have such an able bandmaster as Daniel Temkin. Mr. Temkin at this meeting told of his- plaits to have a larger and better music de- partment for this school year. Residents of the city and ad- jacent areas are urged to stand be- hind the Band Boosters Association and offer any assistance required when called upon, since a first class school band is not only a great credit to our school but also re- dounds to the benefit of the entire community.

C. Belin. Some of her suggestions were to plant the bulbs' in well-drained soil, fertilize well with manure when planting, dig every two or three years and: divide. Some of the bulbs that can be planted now, she told her listeners, are .narcissus, Easter lilies, daffodils, amaryllis and 'Dutch iris. She said that the best way to grow. tulips in Florida is to put the bulbs in the refriger- ator for several weeks before set- ting out. She also said to dig cal- a'd'itms when foliage- turns brown, a'nd store' through the winter. Fifteen old. members and three n'ew memlters, Mrs. W. L. Thorpe, Miss Lois Milton and. Mrs. Wayne Ashley, attended the meeting and plants and projects for the year's work were discussed.

Our Country Right or Wrong NEW DATE FOR THE HISTORY BOOKS What may turn out to be the most momentous meeting in our history since a group of thought- ful and courageous Americans signed a Declara- tion in a meeting house in Philadelphia 176 years ago, took place in New York on Friday, Septem- ber 12th. It will probably be some time before we are fully aware of the area of agreement reached by Eisenhower and Taft on this historic occasion, but if there was a meeting of minds sufficient to enable Senator Taft to go all out for the man who beat him in the nomination fight, we have no fear of the voters' verdict in November. The two- party system will be saved. The Republican party will have repaired its mangled prestige. The na- tion will be equipped to hose out the halls of government and douse the purlieus of federal authority with disinfectant even those that have already been squirted with perfume. There will be respect for law in the land, and respect for the intelligence of the ordinary citizen . that have been so sadly lacking for 20 years. General Ike is steadily gaining in his command of the strange political terrain. He has told the people by radio that the nation has become "the prey of bare-faced looters," and his order-of-the- day to all Americans is to turn out November 4 and turn out "the fear-mongers, the quack doc- tors and the bare-faced looters." Otherwise, he warned, "it will be a long time before we get another chance." "We are not trying to win an election," he has said. "All of us are bound together in one great thing: To get this chance to show that during the next four years we can provide this country with a government that will lead toward peace, toward sanity, toward solvency, toward all those things that make an American's life worth living. That is what we are trying to do."

She had fallen In love with Loring Hunt when she was 12 years old. Maturity had father dampened her enthusiasm; at least she never betrayed the real depths of it. When told of Loring Hunt's pend- ing arrival Jerry had snorted. "What!" he cried disgustedly. "That sap coming here? To your house? Why, your mother must be out of her mind!" "Mother's far from out of her mind," Rose replied furiously. "It's only common decency that she ask Mr. Hunt to stay with us while he's intown. His father and mine were close friends. Since Daddy's death, the Hunts have been splendid to mother." She added spitefully: "We're giving a party 'in Loring Hunt's honor and I guess you'd bet- ter not come." V... yourself. Are you in love? I no- ticed a fine looking boy giving you a lot of attention." Rose was a bit overcome. She hadn't dreamed that her ideal was----was an old man! She started to speak, but a figure had glided up and was standing in front of them. It was Jerry. In the pale light she could see the set look to his jaw. "Ah," said torifig Hunt, rising, "here he is now.-We were just talk- ing about you, young man. Rose was telling me-- well, rather I was telling her that it was a pity her father couldn't have lived to see his daughter grown to woman- hood." "Yeah?" said Jerry. There was a pause, Rose leaped to her feet. "Mr. Hunt was ask- ing me if I'm in love and-- and I told him yes. I told him I was in love with you, Jerry." Slowly Jerry relaxed. Rose had taken his arm and was hanging on for dear life. It was a good thing, he told himself importantly, for Loring Hunt, that she had come to her senses.

"Try and keep me away," said Jerry. "I'm not letting the girl I'm engaged to run around unprotected with that lizard in the vicinity." "We're not engaged," Rose told him. "We're practically engaged," said Jerry. A week later Loring Hunt arrived. He was wearing a mustache and colored glasses, both of which he removed as soon as he was inside the house. "It's my defense," he smiled by way of explanation. "I'd be mobbed without them." Loring was all and more:than she had expected. There were a few grey hairs. about his 'temples, but what are a few grey hairs when the man of her dreams was here in the flesh and seeming to take a particu- lar interest in her. At least Rose imagined he was taking a particular interest in her. DURING the first of the evening Jerry assumed an attitude of aloofness.- He stood in a corner and tried to look disdainful and superior. But when this attitude failed to im- press Rose. he abandoned it, and took to following her around. Toward the end of the evening Loring Hunt asked her if she'd meet. him outside on the terrace in five minutes. "Quite a trick, getting away from that crowd," Loring. Hunt smiled. He drew her to a hammock and sat down. "I wanted to have a few moments alone with you before I left." "Yes?" whispered Rose. "You remind me so much of your father. He was a fine man.

Then I drifted away from the sport and hadn't been near a bowl- ing alley for about 20 years.. Last week my athletically in- clined young daughter and some of her equally vivacious girl friends inveigled me into joining them for a bowling party. Remembering the good old days, I visioned the old ball flying down the alley to smash out a strike or a spare. I even went so far as to do a little bragging about how I used to build up a score. Before I realized what was hap- pening, I found myself all diked out in a pair of rented bowling shoes, hefting the balls: to find one that suited. I expressed the opinion that I might be a little rusty, seeing I hadn't played for so long, ,but when my turn came I ap- proached the alley with complete confidence. My girl companions sat quietly watching to see how the old ma- estro did his stuff. I could tell by the expression on their faces that they expected a strike, or at least a spare. Holding the ball up level with my nose I took a good sight down the alley, then, in what I considered my :best professional style, I let her roll. I'm not exactly sure what happened, but it seemed that a whole fess of unused and neglected muscles, 'brought into play for the first time in years, just naturally refused to function. For a. minute I thought I wasn't going to get my fool fingers out to let the .ball go, and visioned myself flying down the alley with it like a tail, follow- ing a comet. The anticipated crash of the old ball hitting the bull's eye and send- ing the pins in all directions didn't occur. After skittering half way down the course, the ball rolled into the gutter and, while it may have been my imagination, it seemed 'that every single one of those tenpins stood there and thumbed their nose at me. Graciously my girls friends ex- pressed their sympathy, said they were sorry my foot slipped just as I was ready to go, and predicted I would get 'em all next roll for a spare. A ?few minutes earlier, 'be- fore I threw that first ball, I might have agreed with them, but inside my old carcass every bone and muscle disputed their statement. My left hip felt like it was un- hinged: There, was a very unpleas- ant twitch in my right groin, and my arm' felt like somebody had tied a knot in it. I should have 'bowed out and or- dered 'a nice big, dish of crow, then and there, but being a man of cour- age and fortitude, I reached.for the returned ball and taking it easier this time, managed to release it more or less gently on the side of the alley. It rolled leisurely down the center, hit the No. 1 pin dead on the nose and when the dust had cleared I found I had a score of 9! Talk about lucky accidents that was one for the book. - I envied the ease and grace with which the girls performed. While they didn't set the world on fire in building up a score, they made me look and feel like a total loss. Fortifying myself with a cokei, I stepped up for my second franme in fear and trembling, and 'brother,. that trembling was real! Disl'e.-uted gristle was protesting as loud- as: ever, :but ignoring it, I exerci4 a mind over matter like a Chri~mzan Scientist. With ,a mighty effort I" started the ;ball on itsv way and, knowing I' was "gutter happy,," I didn't have the, heart to look, but turned my, back on the alley. Th.n to my amazement I heard a bapig, crask, smash, and opened my eyes to find I had made a strike. A burst of applause arose from the spectator's'bench behind me and 1I realized that my charming com- panions actually thought I had done it on purpose-that it was the re- sult of skill and experience. .My chest expanded an inch or so, but at the same time I was grateful that this second accident enabled me to sit down again without hav- (Continued on page 7) THE STAR, PORT ST.

(Secretary of State Bob Gray had asked for Ervin's opinion, because state law requires registration of new voters to stop 30 days prior to any election. Mrs. C. G. Rish, supervisor of registration for Gulf county, had been wondering if this meant she would have to stop registering all voters on September 13. which was 30 days before the supreme court election. This would have had the effect of preventing anyone from registering for thle November elec- tion after last Saturday. Ervin said that, "We do not con- sider it to have been the legislative intent that a party special primary election occurring within the 30- day period prior to the general election should be permitted to cause a closing of all registration books for registrations for the gen- eral election." He told the secretary of state that Democrats registered before September 13 may vote in the spe- cial primary to nominate a succes- sor to Justice Roy H. Chapman, who died last month. Registrations for the November election may be accepted up to October 4, but those who qualify after September 13 will not be eligible to vote in the su- preme court election. Mrs. Rish states that she will abide by the opinion of Ervin and will keep her books open until Oc- tober 4.

For instance, you will not be re- quired to wade through a long list of presidential electors, but instead will vote directly for your choice for president of the United States. At the top of the ballot will be the names of Adlai E. Stevenson, Democrat, and Dwight D. Eisen- hower, Republican. You vote for whom you think is the man best fitted for the job-Adlai or Ike- and if you don't like either of 'em you can write in the name of your choice in the blank space provided for the purpose. Aspirants for vice-president will follow, and then candidates for U. S. senator, governor and other state officers. 'These will be followed by the county ticket, and then the 11 constitutional amendments to be passed on by the electors. The listing of these constitutional amendments will take more ballot space than all the names of. the candidates. Thus the ballot will be pretty lengthy and probably a little cumbersome to handle. In case you're interested in the subject matter of these constitu- tional amendments, they were pub- lished in full in the September 5 issue of The Star and are being reprinted again this week. Amendents five and six are of particular import to Gulf county, as No. 5 creates a new senatorial dis- trict to be ,made up of Washington and Bay counties, leaving Calhoun asid Gulf counties in the present district, and No. 6 creates a sena- torial district of Monroe county.

L. Monroe, chairman of the Florida petroleum industries 'com- mittee, has announced plans for a campaign to impress on motorists the hidden burden of the gasoline tax. 'So what you receive with your change may be a "Gas Tax Dollar." Monroe said the "Gas Tax Dol- lar," a small handout, printed in green and about the size and shape of a dollar bill, has added to it a red flap which shows the '.as tax paid by motorists in Florida comes to 45c on each dollar's .worth of gasoline. "You pay $1.45 for a dollar's worth of gasoline because state and federal taxes add 45c," he said, ex- plaining the organization decided to distribute these "Gas Tax Dollars" because surveys show few people realize how quickly the 9c com- bined state and federal tax on each gallon adds up on the average pur- chase. "The gasoline tax is perhaps the best-hidden tax there is because it's added right in on the automatic computing pumps and people pay it right along with the price of the gasoline. "If the motorist does know there is a 'gasoline tax, he thinks of it in terms of a few pennies per gallon- not realizing these pennies add up pretty smartly on the average pur- chase at the pump," he concluded.
