HAIL AND FAREWELL!

As editor and publisher of The Star for going on sixteen
years, I have written and placed in type thousands of items
ofn my townsfolk going on vacations from Timbuctoo to Kala-
mazoo and of the wondrous
sights they had seen and
the pleasure they received
from their trips. In those
same almost sixteen years
the longest vacation I have
had was six days in one "
chunk of course, I

and here lately have been .-
spending the week-ends at
Stardust Lodge. ... But
this is a big old world of
ours, and while I have seen
quite a bit of it in my 52
years, I'd like to see a lot
more of it, for I'll be here
a long time after the Grim
Reaper swings his scythe.
So it is indeed with pleasure that I announce the sale of
The Star to my one-timie helper, Wesley R. Ramsey, the one
individual whom I'd rather sell to than any I know, for I
feel that he will continue to operate The Star in the same
manner and tradition and continue to put out the best news-
paper published in 'Port St. Joe.
I want to, express my deepest 'thanks to the people of Port
St. Joe and vicinity for putting up with me for lo, these many
years, and I particularly want to thank those individuals who
aided in putting, out your paper by bringing or phoning. in
i news items, for without their help The Star would not have
been the paper it'vas. I trust that you gpod people will coh--
tinue to give your support to the new owner.

I also want to express my appreciation to the businessmen
of our fair city for their support, for without their advertis-
ing and printing The Star could not have existed.
While my wife and I feel some regret at leaving, we will
not be far away, since we will be taking up our residence at
Stardust Lodge, on the Dead Lakes, and will continue to be
frequent visitors to Port St. Joe. After all, we're getting to be
"old folks" (although I doubt that the wife will admit that
-:what woman does?) and it's about time we were turned
out to pasture. We extend all our friends an invitation to
visit us when they are in our neck o' the woods.
And that is that!

State Retailers Association Vote To

Support State Government Officials


Favor Business-Like Method
Of Streamlining Activities
For State Governnient

Support of state officials and
members of the 1953 Florida legis-
lature in a busines-like streamlin-
ing of state government has been
voted a major project of the Flor-
ida State Retailers Association, an
organization to which a consider-
able number of Port St. Joe mer-
chants belong.
Millions of dollars can be save
Florida taxpayers annual through
the economies of governmental re-
organization, the merchants' or-
ganization contends.
These include consolidation of
tax collection agencies, elimination
of duplicating state functions, co-
ordinated state purchasing, estab-
lishment of a state tax commission
and modernization of the state
constitution.


Tax Study Committee, authorized
by the legislature to study possi-
ble economies in the operation of
state government.
Recommendations of this group
resulted in 1949 in establishment
of -Florida's legislative reference
bureau and the abolition of many
continuing appropriations. '
Retail association executives also
have announced that they favor
opening of the state's welfare-re-
lief rolls to proper inspection.
They pointed to major reductions
in number of recipients in states
where secrecy of rolls already has
been removed.
The organization will be repre-
sented at state budget commission
hearings in January and will main-
tain headquarters in Tallahassee
during the 60-day session of the
1953 Legislature, under supervi-
sion of Dallas L. Hostetler, execu-
tive director.

Craig Rounds Out

One Of St. Joe's

Strongest Elevens

Playing Field Is In Sorry
Shape; Officials Of
Team Urge Action

by HARRY McKNIGHT
Coach Marion Craig has built
himself one of the smoothest foot-
ball machines, man for man, in the
history of Port St. Joe High School.
It takes experts to correctly
evaluate the merits of the individ-
ual players, statistically. Neither
time nor space will allow us to set
down everything I know and would
like to say about each man, but
many things must have been noted
by even the most casual observer'
who has followed the team as we
have, with the other fans and par-
ents.
Naturally, let us begin with the
quarterbacks. We have two, Wal-
ters, a natural leader, started a
very promising season this year.
Suffering a severely sprained ankle
in an early scrimmage, he was un-
able to continue as regular quar-
terback after the second game.
The full responsibility fell to Joe
Adams, one of the finest defensive
players on the field. After a shaky
start, during which Adams had to
gain the full confidence of his
mates, he has proven himself one
of the most versatile players on
record. He can pass well, handle
the ball. with precision ae plal a
good defensive game. Walters has
now recovered sufficiently to be of
tremendous help on line thrusts.
Other highly effective guards,
are Dennis and newcomers Gain-
ous and Jammes. There is de-
pendable Benny Hudson at center.
He is aggressive and another back-
field rusher. One of our fastest
men, Hudson hauled down two
ball carriers at Walton of De Fun-
iak who wel-'e headed for pay dirt

City Receives $2,404 From
Cigaret Tax for September

City Clerk Ben Dickens Jr., this
week tucked a' check for $2,404.58
into the city strong box for cigaret
taxes collected inside the city limits
for the month of September by the
state beverage department. This
brings the total received from this
source in the first nine months of
-the year to $18,797; or an average
of. about $2,089 per month.
Amounts received by nearby com-
munities were: Panama City, j15,-
91m.42; Wewahitchka, $472.21;' Ap-
alachicola, $1,501.81; Blountstown,
$1,436.29; Carrabelle, ,$482.51; Al-
tha, $284.08; Liberty county, $427.
Total collected throughout the
state for September came to $1,-
422,792,69 of which $336,337.28 went
'into the general revenue fund and
the remainder was distributed to
eligible incorporated municipalities.

in the wide open spaces. These
tackles spelled the difference. Smathers To Be Here For


Ends Roberts and Chism have
developed into a team themselves
and are a thrill to watch. Roberts
consistent pass receiving and
tackling have made him outstand-
ing. Chism is superb in every de-
partment, a very good pass re-
ceiver, a vicious tackler, and a
blocker who loves to throw his
160 plus pounds around.
With a well-rounded backfield
we have McCall, a rugged, charg-
ing. swivel-hipped runner who can
pick up long yardage with com-
parative ease. Richards, a tena-
cious halfback shows great prom-
ise and is developing well. Coker,
one of the seasons surprises, has
played a brilliant game against
our most powerful opponents. He
is fleet of foot and another line
/
plunger. Williamson, another prom-
ising runner, played his most out-
standing game against highly
touted Graceville. Two other fine
players who will see much more
action next year are Duperrouzel
and Wilder.
Captain Bo Bray, tipping the
scales at 240 lbs. has three full
years of experience behind him
and is, without question, one of
the most versatile tackles we have
ever had.. With an advantage of
tremendous weight. he can bowl
over all position, he is a surpris-
ingly fast runner, even receiving
forward pases when switched to
end position, and a very good de-
fense caller. Gailliard. rugged and
aggressive, rushes the opposing
backfield mercilessly and throws

George Smathers, will apear here
Monday and be honored with a

Funds To Be Used For War
Against Killer Disease
Tuberculosis

The red Doubled-Barred Cross,
which is featured with a lighted
candle on the 1952 Christmas Seal,
is today a half century old as the
international symbol of the war
against tubercu-
losis, Harry H. Help Fight TB
Saunders, Coun-
ty Seal Sale
chairman, point-
ed out yesterday,
-Gulf County
reside nts now
have a chance to
see the new Seal
which goes on Buy
sale to homes ChristmasSeas
throughout the county on Novem-
ber 17. Proceeds from the 1952
Christmas Seal Sale, which will
continue until Christmas Day, will
be used for the 1953 tuberculosis
control work of the Gulf County
Health and Tuberculosis Associa-
tion.
"The use of the red Dauble-
Barred Cross, an adaption of the
historic Cross of Lorraine, as an
emblem of the modern crusade
against tuberculosis, was first pro-
posed and unanimously accepted,
on October-, $83, 1902," Chairman
Saunders said. TThe proposal was
made during the first international
conference on tuberculosis in Ber-
lin, where medical and lay leaders
from 20 nations including the
United States, met to join forces
against TB, then the leading
cause of death in many nations.
Tuberculosis has b e en forced
down from first to sixth as the
cause of death in this country
since then, but TB is still the lead-
ing disease killer among young
people in this country between 15
and 35."
A brightly lighted candle in an
old-fashioned, brass candlestick the
Seal's second feature, glows slight-
ly to the right of the international
symbol, Saunders said, with both
Cross and candle standing out
against a green background.
"This yearoughout's Seal will make the
familiar insignia of the ceaseless
war against tuberculosis better
known than ever before," Saunders
concluded. "It willnjured point up the
fact orythat undeivision of the emblem of the
red Double-Barred Cross, tubercu-
losis associations in this country
and throughout the world will fight
TB until te Accordisease is no longerry Hi-a

"MIRACLES" AND TB
Each year at this time we are asked by
the Gulf Tuberculosis Health Association to sup-
port the annual Christmas Seal Sale. Port St.
Joe has always supported the sale generously,
knowing that Christmas Seals are-helping to lick
tuberculosis.
Sometimes, however, the question is asked
whether there isn't some drug which could cure
every case of tuberculosis and put a quick end
to this age-old disease.
Unfortunately, there is no "ihiracle" drug
to solve the tuberculosis problem. Fortunately,
however; there are drugs which' are extremely
helpful in the treatment of tuberculosis.
To understand both these statements, it is
necessary to understand something of the na-
ture of tuberculosis, the communicable disease,.
which kills more people than all other infectious
diseases combined.
Tuberculosis is a chronic, relapsing disease


which causes injury to lung tissue. It is com-
municable; that is, it is spread from the sick to
the well. If we had a "miracle" drug we should
undoubtedly expect it to cure any given case of
the disease promptly, completely, and perman-
ently; to make the lung whole again, and' to
render the patient non-infectious so that he
could not give his disease to anyone else.
The fact that such drug is not available does
not in any way detract from the drugs which
are being used in tuberculosis therapy. They are
not "cure-alls," nor are they a substitute for
other treatment. They are used in conjunction
with bed rest, to keep infection under control
while the body itself repairs damaged tissue,
or needed surgery can be performed.
Drugs have definitely taken their place
in the treatment of tuberculosis. But no case of
tuberculosis can be treated until it is found.
And one of the tragedies of tuberculosis is its
unobtrusive beginning. People may have the
disease, may even be spreading it to others,
without knowing they are ill. In fact it is esti-
mated there are probably 50 persons with
"unknown" tuberculosis in Gulf County today-
people -who either do not know they have the
disease or whose disease has not been reported
to health authorities. The majority of these are
not under treatment of any kind.
In order to treat these persons and stop the
spread of disease, it is necessary to find the un-
known cases. Our tuberculosis association, thru
education and through case-finding programs,
is aiding the search for the unknown tubercu-
losis. Such activities are essential to the ulti-
mate control of this insidious disease. We should
support, our Gulf County association in its
search for TB and we can do this by buying and
using Christmas Seals.
Sometimes -the greatest' miracles are to be
found in the simple, familiar things, like
Christmas. Seals. "

NINTH GRADE CIVICS CLASS
HAVE PANEL DISCUSSION
by Marhta Costin
The Ninth Grade Civics Class
held a panel discussion on "So-
cialized Medicine". Those arguing
for socialized medicine were ,Bar-
bara Dassinger, Janice Anderson,
and Sonja Blount Those arguing
against it were Pete and Paula
Duperrouzel, and Martha Costin.
Main points for Socialized Medi-
cine were that everyone can't af-
ford medical care, and that the
government helps develop new
medicine and should see that every
one has an equal chance to use
it. The main points against it
were that it does noot deal in
control of disease, and also it
works on the basis of quantity and
not quality. It takes away your
freedom of choice.

FOUR GET UNEMPLOYMENT
BENEFITS IN GULF COUNTY
Unemployment insurance pay-
ments declined '$19,981. during,'the
week ending October 31 to $172,719,
according to reports from the Flor-
ida Industrial Commission. The
previous week payments had' to-
taled $192,700. The number of re-
cipients decreased accordingly.
While the 'total of $152,582 paid
out during the same period in 1951
was considerably lower than the
amount the cii'rent week, there
was only a small difference of 239
in the number of unemployed.
In this county 4 unemployed re-
ceived $156 of the total amount
paid out in the state, with none
being paid out in Gulf County the
previous week.

Girls who know all the answers
are those who have been out with
questionable men.

Widespread interest is being Donough
aroused by the announcement of Enginee
the fifth Annual Harbor Day cele-
bration on Tuesday, November 18, -
1952, which is being held in Ap-
alachicola, Florida.
This historical city at the ter-
minus of the Apalachicola-Chatta-
hoochee-Flint river system, was in
1838, one of the three largest cot- c
ton shipping ports on the gulf. It
was also the home of Dr. John Gor- A
rie, a practising physician there, h,
who in 1850 invented the machine
for making ice. o
The river system, which runs tl
through Georgia, Florida and Ala-
bama, is one of the largest east of T
the Mississippi. Its development, b
by bringing cheaper transportation .
and more power will materially O
help in the development of these
states. TI
Harbor Day is the occasion when n
those who are interested in this
great river system, gather to plan
for the future. This year's celebra- B
tion promises to be bigger and bet-
ter than ever. Main events will be P
a free seafood dinner at 12 o'clock C

The editor of The Star is in re-

the University of Florida at Gaines-
ville which points out that Florida's
Seminole Indians, rapidly increas-
ing in numbers, eventually will
have to participate more or less
fully in the white man's way of. life.
The article says that a basic gov-
ernment policy is aimed to help the
Indians make a transition to more
participation in the white man's
world with a minimum of difficulty
by giving them necessary training
and education to compete with the


whites.
Covering the history of Indian

the article declares that one of the
main concerns of the government
has been to develop sources of in-

the current number of 823 Indians
will increase with the better health
facilities now available and the fact
that the Seminoles are among the

Sikes' statement said: "In Tues-

"The great.personal popularity of

Hunters Will Find

Turkeys Are Plentiful

For Hunting Season

Estimated Populatior of 45,000 In
State; Season Will Open
November 20


Wild turkey hunters will find an
abundant supply of birds this shoot-
ing season, according to the state
game and fresh water fish commis-
sion, which reports an estimated
population of 45,000 turkeys now in
Florida.
The turkey population has greatly
increased in the last five years
when there were only 26,000 of the
game birds in Florida. But it's a far
cry from the numerous =birds found
in the early pioneer days. and it's a
long way from the estimated num-
ber that the state can safely' ac-
commodate.
In pioneer days, writers described
Florida as abounding with count-
less gobblers, but the coming of the
white man with his plows, guns and
axes resulted in the turkey's ulti-
mate disappearance from all but the
most remote and secluded portions
of the state. But the turkey clan is
increasing again, due to the co-op-
eration of sportsmen, better law
enforcement, game refuges where
no shooting is allowed, and the
fencing of large areas of land.
One of the most important fac-
tors in retarding the turkey's come-
back has been the practice of a few
d-isreputable hunters who shoot the
.unwary "frying size" birds during
the summer.
Sportsmen will have the same
number of days to shoot turkeys
this year as they did last season,
with the season starting next Thurs-
day, November 20, and ending on
February 1.
Hunters are permitted to take
gobblers only in the Third (which
includes Gulf county and Second
Districts, while either sex may be
killed in the First, Fourth and Fifth
Districts. Turkeys must be tagged
immediately after being killed with
a tag from the hunting license.


Gulf Joins With Nine Other
Counties On Livestock Ban

Voters of Gulf county joined with
voters of nine other Northwest
Florida counties Tuesday of last
week in deciding to bar roaming
livestock from all their roads.
The measure, approved by 27,849
voters in the ten counties and op-
posed by only 9,563, tightens the
state-wide cattle fencing law by
making it apply to all county roads
as well as to state highways.
Other counties approving the re-
striction were Escambia, Jackson,
Santa Rosa, Bay, Calhoun, Holmes,
Okaloosa, Waltbn and Washington.

Florida Coast Might Be Sinking Or
Water Rising, Nobody Seems
To Know the Cause

,Florida is losing thousands of
acres of its beaches because of a
rise in sea level so gradual you
probably haven't noticed it. The
editor of The Star hasn't-in fact.
we didn't know about it until this
week.
The rise is present on both the
Atlantic and Gulf coasts. In some
places it is as much as three-quar-
ters of a foot over what it was 10
years ago. -It was 10 years ago that
the present heightening of the sea
level began. It has been noticed all
along the Atlantiic coast, and there
seems to be a rise on the Pacific
coast, too, but it's not nearly as
marked.
What's the cause? Nobody appar-
ently knows. The water itself may
be rising due to melting of the
polar ice caps, or the coast might
be sinking-or it might 'be a com-,
bination of the two.

Tall, Double Tulips Rival

Peonies in Size and Color


Late double tulips which blos-
som at the same time asithe Dar-
win, Breeder and Cottage types.
are the most recent creations of
plant breeders working on this an-
cient flower family.
Early double tulips have long
been known, and lovely they are.
Like the early singles, they i ere
bred for formal beds and borders.
j. b. planted as.a rule in. patterns,
;, fa.hicn which' prevailed in' this
country fifty years ago.
The early single and double tu-
lips are among the most highly bred
flowers known; excelling in the
brilliance of their coloring, the uni-
formity of height, and flowering
season. How they were produced
so long ago, in color, form and
habit so different from parent vari-
eties. is a puzzle to modern plant
breeders.
Tall, late tulips have appeared in
: manynarhed varieties for the first
lime, since the end of the world
Waf:r; They have much longer
: stems, and larger flowers than the
rarly doubles. They are not so well
suited to planting in formal beds,
but.fit gracefully, into the .informal
border arrangements which are in
fashion now. .
a They are called.-'.peony flower-
ing" because some varieties have
flowers large and beautiful enough

weeks later. Mount Tacoma, a
double white, is especially worthy
of this comparison, growing on
stems 24 inches tall, and bearing a
pure white fully double flower.
Many other colors are offered in
the late double group. Eros, a pink,
is one of the most popular, a deep
true pink with silvery highlights.
Other varieties give a wide range
of colors, including deep rose, car-
mine, cream, lilac, and maroon.
The late double tulips receive the
same culture as Darwins, and
blossom at the same time. They
are most effective when planted in
a group of considerable size at a
focal point in the garden display, as
they are definitely "head-line per-
foriimers."

Paper Company Awards

Twenty-Four Scholarships


Go To Children of Employees
of Company and
Subsidiaries
Mayor J. C. Belin announced
Th-rsday of last week that under
the Port St. Joe scholarship fund
.24 .awards have been granted in
the aggregate amount of $11,600.
Mayor Belin stated that 'the stu-
dents receiving the awards have
enrolled in 12 .different colleges but
that the majority of the students
are attending Florida institutions.
Each case where the student is at-
tending a school outside the state
is for some special reason or con-
.sideration.
This fund was established by the
St. Joe Paper Company on Decem-
ber -26,' 1951, by ai contribution to
,the city of $20,000 to provide
awards to boys and girls of the
,employees of the St. Joe Paper
iCompany and its subsidiary com-
cpanies.
'In :presenting the check to the
City of Port St. Joe, Roger L. Main,
president of the St. Joe Paper
(Company, said: "The fund should
:be for the purpose not only of pro-
viding direct help but furnish an


incentive to a student to acquire
an education, whereby he can make
a greater contribution to society."
The fund is administered by a
scholarship committee, appointed
by the Mayor, which is made up of
Mrs. Charles R. Garraway, Jr.,
William S. Quarles, Henry F.
Ayers, principal of the St. Joe
High School, and Joseph V. Dowd


chairman.

Eisenhower Is Top Man
Despite Truman's Efforts

A cold appraisal of election sta-
tistics today leads to the conclu-
sion that Presdent-elect Dwight
D. Eisenhower enjoys a nation-
wild popularity to which few, if
any other men in history could lay
claim.
The political fires which blazed
across this nation for four long
months have been reduced to em-
bers and it is easier to discard per-
sonalities and examine statistics.
Here are some things the statist-ics
show.
1. Eisenhower received more
votes than any presidential candi-

a


date in history--millions more than
any other. Too, the total vote was
the greatest ever recorded.
2. His immense vote-appeal swept
into office with him a majority of
Republican candidates for the Sen-
ate, the House of Representatives
and for governors of the several
states.
3. His electoral vote total was
the second highest ever piled up
by a Republican-just a shade un-
der the total accumulated by Her-
bert Hoover in 1928 when religious
prejudice against his opponent, Al-
fred E. Smith, figured prominently

(Continued from page 1)
CRAIG ROUNDS OUT
a bruising tackle. Creamer, a guard
who loves to block as well as
tackJe. more than affects his
lighter weight by his determinar-
tionl and line-busting tactics.
It's a great little ball team we
have and much, much more could
be said about them all, including
the second string. Craig has re-
9eived more support this year from
fans and especially has he been
able to make use of the services
,of Billy Fleming, a veteran of past
Shark history, Phillip Chatham,
another Shark star of '49 and '50
and Rev. Harry Douglas, a Suwa-
nee regular.
We have one of the poorest play-
ing fields in West Florida. We
must do something about it. Why
not work out a long range pro-
gram to develop a field worthy of
one of our finest and most popular
sports? Will you do your part?
It pays to advertise-try It!
