County Commissioners are then required to order an election to be held countywide with all 'persons who are qualified under the gen- eral election laws allowed to vote. The names of any town, 'village or city located in the County may be placed on the ballot for selection as County Seat by filing them with the Clerk of Circuit Court, and the two Towns, Cities or Villages re- ceiving the largest number of votes shall be voted on in a run- off election, with the one receiving the largest vote in the run-off elec- tion designated as the County Seat for the next ten years. Costin poin- ted out that this method would do away with the need for Legisla- tive action in the matter and keep the action strictly local. Senator Tapper was not avail- able for comment at press time, but at the Town Hall meeting held recently,' he stated that if the peo- ple wanted the Courthouse moved to Port St. Joe he would do every- thing in the form of legislation. that was in his power to see that the Courthouse was moved. Costin stated that he would hold another Town H-all meeting at the Courthouse in Wewahitchka on March 31st at 7:00 o'clock p.m. (CST) with everyone invited to dis- cuss local' or general legislation.

This agreement was reached af- ter Cecil M. Webb, of Tampa, and Walter Warren, of Leesburg, heard the recorded discussions on' Tues- day's hearings at Tallahassee and Blountstown, which were held by SA. F. Rich, of Tallahassee, and Mil- ler V. Joiner, of Jacksonville. Webb and Warren were unable to attend the previous meetings, because of business reasons. After hearing the record, the Commissioners voted* on the com- promise agreement because of two reasons: 1. because of the split opinions of the people themselves who were just about evenly divid- ed. on this issue and 2, because of the financial hardships :affecting the camp operators who have al- ready .-spent considerable money getting tBeir camp readildfor' t -it' many rE ervations made for t.. month of April.

The Commission also decided to send two biologists to Dead Lakes to begin an investigation in an ef- fort to measure the catch of sport fishermen and to make population surveys on the famed Northwest Florida fishing spot. 'Funds to 'pay for such an investigation will be taken from the- profits derived from the Commission's controlled seining project.

The scope puts out a radar beam and as a car crosses the beam the scope records the speed at which the car is travelling. The machine is so sensitive that-it will even record the velocity of the wind blowing against it. Patrolman Randall stated that soon the entire State Patrol will be equipped with the scopes in teams of two. A patrol car sets with the scope and records the speed of passing cars and radios ahead to a waiting patrolman a description and tag number of the speeder for apprehension and the patrolman then passes out safety literature to the offender and a booklet of penalties for not obey- ing the Florida highway laws. ana sala ne fiau iusL WILRU56UU IM5 PAGE TWO THE STAR, PORT ST..JOE, GULF COUNTY, FLORIDA I Social Activities 1 Personals Clubs Churches d 2 Mrs. Ocyle Munn, Editor Phone 166 i FIRST METHODIST CHURCH PTA Will Meet Friday PaImn S.uni Se vicea.

A YOUNG MAN'S FANCY TURNS After a thorough investigation in the mat- ter and after having examined the evidence both pro and con and from the back to the front, we are whole heartedly of the opinion that the season of Spring is definitely here. The appearance of this delightful season of the year is usually the harbinger of many strange and delightful actions and feelings in people of both sexes and all ages. Usually, without a single exception, at this time of year, an older man's attention and inter- ests are almost invariably turned and looks for- ward to many pleasant afternoons in the warm sunshine just sitting and soaking up all that free vitamin "D" and watching the wonders of na- ture unfold before their eyes. The middle aged men usually get out the fishing tackle about this time of year and get it oiled and ready for use. We know that most of the men around here keep their fishing tackle ready and in, practically constant use the year 'round, but those few that don't, begin getting ready to drown a few worms. The younger men renew their vigor in pur- suing the fairer sex and'look forward eagerly to long walks in the cool, fragrant twilight hours of these spring e enings. The young men-t6-be and women-to-be start wearing a path to the old swimming hole. Now comes the rub, there's no swimming hole around here to wear a path too, except the bay and the gulf and one doesn't do much swimming there, just floating and coughing salt water. Around about this. time of the year it is brought out forcefully that Port St. Joe is in dire nseed0of a swimming pool to provide a lit- tle something for the boys and girls to do dur- ing the spring and summer months. We have looked into the matter, and have found that a swimming pool around here would cost a nice piece of change; about $75,00pi0 in fact for a real first class pool, and who wants a second class? That's a lot of money to sink in one project., But, the amount of money is not as great as the need. There are several ways that a swimming pool could be financed here and we are going to try a few of them. If you have any sugges- tions and want a pool here for your children how about giving us a: little boost and a few suggestions. We're serious. What with the in- creasing influx of tourists and tourist traffic, not to mention the need to our own boys and girls, a swimming pool would be a definite as- set for our town, instead of a liability. Give the matter a little serious thought and let us know how you feel. ETAOIN SHRDLU by WESLEY R. RAMSEY We found out last week that there are a few people who read this rag. Long about 10:00 Wednes- day morning, we were loping gent- ly along with our old Cotrell "98" (98 loose pieces) when all at once she sounded like an old Essex throwing a rod, then coughed once and stood still. Well, we looked at the coating on the rollers,. check- ed the revolutions (pulse in hu. mans) and looked at the forms for loose quoins aind nary a suspicious looking varmint did we find. Then came Ihe only thing to do. Get out and get under. So get under we did and found a drive gear in fif- 'te64 pieces. S:o we sighed a sigh of. despair and mentally chalked up a six hour op hour t ''wo rs to get- the press, apart, two hours to get our .friend and master fixer; An- drew Martin to put the wheel back together and braze it together. 'Then another two hours to put it all back together again. We finally got the part off in just a little 'over two and'a.half hours and carried it around to Andrew upon which he made the discovery that the three inch thick steel drive shaft was cracked bad and bent and had been so for some few years be- fore it finally, gave way. By this time it was dark and there was nothing to do but wait til Thurs- day morning at which time we prevailed upon Mr. 'Hobaugh at the paper mill to allow us to enter our ailing part in the paper company machine shop. He in turn took the matter up, with Hisrry Saunders and they ,graciously agreed to let us' take the part to the machine' shop to be fixed. Well they had to take the full day on it and cut off the ailing section of the drive shaft and welded on a new'one and turned it down to size and made a part as good as new. It was a struggle, but we got 'the paper out. We feel we received our mon- ey's worth in telephone service Thursday and Friday morning by people calling up to say "Wheah's my papuh, bud". We went down to the city hall Tuesday afternoon to watch the display there of the electronic device to tell how fast a car is GIVE TO THE RED CROSS travelling on the road. You know1 it's right amusing. 'There sat these two patrol cars demonstrating the gadget and up the boulevard these cars would come burning the road up, but just let the drivers catch sight of those patrol cars and back they'd. haul on the reins and se- dately creep by at a modest 20 miles per. We suppose you read of the lit- tle escapade around at Costin's De- partment Store las' Sunday night. Well, it seems that our local po- lice have practically solved the; crime and they are certain that the perpetrator of the crime wa* a teen-age boy. So we see that ugly, demon "juvenile delinquency" lift- ing his head in our town. Once started, like anything else, it is hard to cope: with and stop. In ref- . erence to this we are pointing toi: the above editorial as a possible partial solution of the problem. We cUd not have this in mind when We wrote the editorial as it was written the first of last week and this only happ med Sunday. We made mention of the fact that the $75,000.00 'needed to construct a pool was a lot of money but felt reasonably sure that it would be worth the amount in attractions to tourists and convenience to the lo- cal populace. Now, happenings force us to come to the conclusion that the price is cheap: and that a swimming pool and other means of diversion for young folks are needed urgently. Hre we go again with that age !old argument, "I didn't have all that when I was a kid". Also Mr. and Mrs. Citizen, there were more natural attributes in the country to give you sources of diversion. Now, all we have in our towns are places to lie, stores to purchase what we- want and a hike of many miles before one can even enjoy walking through the woods. What can a child do in an "asphalt jungle" such as our cities today have become? Study this matter carefully and just remem- ber, this boy in question came from a "good" family, and as far as we know, had the right upbringing, but he just put his energy in the wrong direction. Don't ever forget, it might be your child next. It would be to your benefit to get behind a swimming pool and any other project that comes to light for the benefit of our children and for their recreation. $4.95 to $5.95 ocosnut Croam Egg I: a ond ac 9 Marapslo Ep is Tray later t!,uE ou$W st~p iam*T49 I~ma dmm41 frcWt a~eer~it4 S Butter Cream Eggs 3 flavors. each 10c Easter Eggs Nested in Beautiful Basket. 98c arshillow Rabbits TeK Wrap. each 49c For fit, for wear, for value... your best bu5 in children's shoes...

"There were three big trucks ahead of me on Route 41," he grumbled to .the counter man,. "traveling so close together I couldn't pass. They hog our highways; bust up our roads, and who pays the bill-? We do-the little motorists." He went on that way for about five minutes. I finished my coffee and then I turned ..to him. "Look, Mister," said, "you're pulling my cork but we, truck drivers can't afford to lose our tempers. But'let me steer you straight 6n a few points." He swallowed some coffee and looked at me, sort of surprised. "In the first place," I said, "those three trucks, traveling close together, were 'tailgat- ing'. It's strictly against regu- lations and drivers who con- tinually practice tailgating are soon washed out. "In the second place-we're more than paying our way. The average passenger car pays annual road taxes of $44.56 while the larger truck pays an average of $3,551.10 --as much in one year as a passenger car would pay in 79 years. .... .'As% for busting up high- ways-each state has truck size and weight laws. The American Association of State Highway Officials set up these standards in 1946 and by golly, we truckers have to abide by these laws. "And for your information, pal," I added, "right here in Florida we have nearly 200,000 trucks and more than 100,000 truck drivers who are ...doing a terrific.job, if.you'll pardon my modesty. Think it over-everything you eat, wear or use is carried at least part of the way by motor truck. Happy driving, Mis- ter." WHITE CITY NEWS by MRS.
