MrCrea, toeing the mound for the Saints allowed the Chattahoochee team only 3 hits and three walks for the afternoon, which they con- verted to three runs. Two of the hits allowed were infield hits and were garnered together for effec- tiveness in scoring. McCrae went the route for the Saints. Harless scored the first run for the Saints in the fourth inning when he trotted home when Her- ring flied out to deep left field. The Chattahoochee pitcher then held the Saints scoreless up to the last half of the ninth when the Saints big row of batters came to the plate. Harless led off the rally by draw- ing a base on balls. Philyaw, who had previously laid one over the left field fence foul by about two feet, sent a long ball bouncing off the left field fence for a double, scoring Harless. Belin singled to left center and stole second when Dowden fanned out.

Costin, Jr., and sponsored by the City Commission of Port St. Joe. According to Hill, the building will be 30 by 40 feet and will be constructed so that it may be en- larged in the future. Plans are to house a replica of the old Lake'Wimico and St. Jo- seph's Railroad and other historical replicas of the old city of St. Jo- seph and documents, made here during the signing of Florida's first State Constitution here in 1838. kill stated that he did not know as yet what sort of material the building would be constructed of or just where it would be located but he did say that the building would be located on the State Park grounds and that construction would begin "aroiad fall". The Port St. Joe Ca:, Commis- sion sparked the drive for the pro- ject and had several hundred pam- phlets containing historical data "baseball knowhow" that has been of this vicinity published to pre- characteristic with Saint teams sent to members of the legislature down through the years. The Chattahoochee team, which was formerly the Tallahassee Capi- tols presented one of the strongest defensive teams in the league and held the Saints at bay with error- less play for the nine full innings.

Navy is now accept- ing applications from physicians in all priorities for commissions in the U. S. Naval Reserve. Immed- iate active duty is involved; Phy- sicians who have reached their 21st but not their 50th birthday may apply, This program has not been available to physicians in pri- ority 1, 2 and 3 for the past eight months.'

REPUBLICANS RAISE POST OFFICE BOX RENTAL FEE The Republicans have done it again! As of the beginning of this quarter, post office box rental has advanced.

The raise in box rent dues is nationwide. withdraw from the league and that other teams through th$ league were not meeting their obligations by showing up at every game. The Port St. Joe team, particularly had been left holding the bag on sev- eral occasions lately. The meeting was under the di- rection of J. Lamar Miller, presi- dent of the Gulf Coast League. ' Representatives were present from Blountstown, Chattahoochee, Navy and Port St. Joe. Several of thd members pres- ent were in favor of disbanding the league altogether and for a while it looked as if this might happen. League vice-president L. G. Buck of Apalachicola, advised the mem- bers against this action to insure a league for next year and future years. Buck pointed out that last year, the league had a difficult time in forming since the year be- fore the league had ceased to func- tion in the middle of the season. He predicted that if the league was allowed to die at this time, it might never be revived. Both Blountstown and Chattahoo- chee expressed their 'desIres to continue play and Port St. Joe finally agreed.to stay in'the league if the teams would hold up their standard and field good strong teams to create more fan interest. St. Joe also stressed the impor- tance of giving sufficient notice if a team cannot make a play date. Blountstown and Chattahoochee both made assurances that they now had good strong teams and Chattahoochee demonstrated this fact Sunday to the Saints with a thrilling and good performance at what was called the best ball game of the year here by many specta- tors. Navy representatives were told of several FSU boys living in Panama City who would be glad to offer their services to strengthen the Navy team so that they, too, would make a formidable opponent, A new schedule will be drawn up for the four teams remaining in the league. The first half, of the season was officially declared over with Port St. Joe as the winner. It was decided that the winner of the second half of the season would play St. Joe in a playoff to deter- mine league championship. The outcome of the meeting was that good baseball will be assured for. the fans for the remainder of the season. _____ ^ ____ --'*- ROTARY CLUB FEASTS ON GULF COUNTY CHICKEN Members of the Port St. Joe Ro- tary Club were royally fed at a fish supper Monday evening at the Cen- tennial Building barbecue pit as the outcome of a recent attendance contest conducted by the club.

The spoken word is lost; the printed word remains. IT ALMOST HAPPENED Yes sir, it sure did almost happen. We're talking about the Gulf Coast League. It just. about wasn't anymore last Friday night. The fans of this locality and other towns throughout the league just weren't supporting the home town ball clubs like they should and the league was going kaput as one broke team after an- other dropped from league play. The meeting was convened Friday night, with all but a handful of the league officials decided to call it quits and disband the league. L. G. Buck of Apalachicola reminded the offi- cials present of the struggle to get a league started last year after play had halted in the middle of the season the year before. Buck said if the members of the league shut down now, they could just kiss baseball goodbye in this section. We are inclined to agree. Baseball is America's number one sport and fans want to see a good game of it played on their home diamonds with their home teams, but as we have seen here, they will not support a half-hearted team playing in a half-hearted manner. Through much talking and cajoling, those supporters of quitting were grudgingly won over so we will have baseball throughout the remainder of the season. The responsibility is now on your shoulders. If you support the team with your presence in the remaining games to be played, there will be a better baseball team next year and a more solid league with rigid rules and some good ball playing. The Saints are still a winning team and a power throughout the league. They are not alone in this category now, Chatta- hoochee (formerly Tallahassee) is now on an equal with the Saints and any other team in the league. The Chattahoochee team is now on an equal or better than the Apalachicola team which dropped out of the league. Blountstown is another strong team that has defeated the Saints in recent games. The fourth team in the league is Navy. Navy has picked up some FSU boys who live in Panama City and are now reported to have a strong team. So there you have four evenly matched teams to offer thrilling baseball for the rest of the season.' Let's support them people, and they will give you your money's worth in entertainment.

With the exception of the Jack- Frankly, from all I've been able sonville and Miami area, Floridians to learn the future of television is have been more or less out of the television picture. While thousands of sets have been sold throughout the state, reception has not been very satisfactory. Last week the first station on Florida's West Coast, WSUN, went on the air with test patterns and expects to be televising regular programs shortly. It is doubtful if: any other station will be operating must pay *much more for time than he pays for radio. SFor example, station time alone for an hour long show on NBC's TV network costs $58,575 while an hour on the radio network can be bought for around $25,000. The Mil- ton Berle show costs $150,000 a week for time and talent.. That's not as rosy as the set salesman why big national advertisers are would have you believe.

The advertiser WHY GAS DOLLARS GO SO FAR NO SIX-CYLINDER ENGINL IN ANY CAR AT ANY PRICE S" 0 FORD SIX REDUCES GAS-WASTING ENGINE The main reason for Ford's high-compression Mileage Maker Six economy is that the pistons travel a shorter distance for every mile you travel.

The' local advertiser, of course, doesn't pay that kind of money.. He can get a spot for a fairly reason- able figure. With only one station in an area and everybody iisten- ing to it he may find it a profifable investment, but if four or five sta- tions are in the field the deal is too rich for his blood and he is apt to pull out of television entirely. Don't get me wrong, I'm not talking .against television. I have, a set and have had for some time, but I can only get a program about once or twice a week, and that is amazi-ag for I'm two hundred miles or more from Jacksonville and there is plenty of interference to contend with. When WSUN be- gins, operating on a regular sche- dule, 1 hope it will come in with- out difficulty, but I know I will have no choice of programs or no selection. I can look and listen to such programs as they have or turn off my set and go back to my newspaper. You hear a lot about color tele- vision. I understand it really has been perfected but it will be sev- eral years before it is available to you and me, and when it does c-ome we will probably have to shell out several hundred dollars for a new set capable of receiving it. Smart Florida publicists like Dick Pope of Cypress Gardens, Peter Schaal of Silver Springs, Bill Chambers of Marine Studios and SBeverly Grizzard of the Florida'Ad- Svertising Commission, realizing the tremendous demand for good tele- vision programs are getting plenty of excellent publicity for Florida by providing television stations with attractive feature films that they can use as fillers at nominal cost. 'At any event, it is a boon to Flor- ida and we should make the most of it. -------(_---- LOCAL RESIDENT IS PRIZE WINNER IN FOOD CONTEST A Port St. Joe woman, Mrs. Elea- nor Heath, P. O.

Landowners May Order Seedlings Farmers and other landowners in West Florida who wish to order pine seedlings from the Florida Forest Service may do so after July 1. According to District Fores- ter E. R. Howard, orders should be addressed to: Florida Forest Serv- ice, P. O. Box 188, Panama City. As was the casel'ast year, orders for 10,000 trees (or less) will be met completely. These orders should be accompanied by payment in full for the number of seedlings ordered. Howard urges each per- son placing -an order for trees to state 'when they want to receive them. A space is provided on the seedling application for this infor- mation. Applications for more than 10,000 trees may have to be cut, depend- ing on the total demand for trees, and the production of the two Flor- ida Forest Service nurseries. No payment should be included in or- ders for more than 10,000 trees. According to the district forester, notice of payment due will be sent out after September 1 on these or- ders. Again, a shipping date must be given on the application. Those wishing to pick seedlings up at the nurseries may do so if they state on their application the dates they wish to get them. Seedling orders will be accepted up to and including September 1., The price for slash pine seedlings is $3.00 per thousand, F.O.B. nur- in demand . .fil in value in sales Highway Patrol Urges Safe Holiday Driving TALLAHASSEE The State Highway Patrol yesterday issued an appeal for safe and careful July_ 4 driving to reduce what is already a record Florida traffic death toll list. Because the celebrated day falls on Saturday this year, there will actually be a shorter than last year's 4-day week end when 12 persons lost their lives in traffic mishaps. However, Commander H. N. Kirkman warns that just as many persons might lose their lives in a shortened holiday week end be- cause they will try to pack so much celebrating into such a short time. Kirkman said it was safe to as- sume that there will be accidents with probable casualties, but mis- ery and sorrow can be minimized by a safe approach to the day when we are supposed to celebrate our independence, not mourn on Mon- day at a funeral. Over the Independence Day week end last year-which started late Wednesday -and lasted until Sunday-12 persons lost their lives. The 1953 week end will be much shorter, but Saturday and Sunday each is a day heavily infested with express collect. Checks or money orders. should be made out to the Florida Board of Forestry.

The cities have mythical names and they in turn go to make up the total of four counties. Each county elects officers such as sheriff, judge and county commissioner.- On the city level, a mayor, four councilmen and a police chief ar' all chosen by ballot. On the state level, the city be- comes a legislative district and the citizens of each district are entitled to four representatives and two senators. The group also elects a governor, six Supreme Court jus- tices and the chief justice and the governor's Cabinet. A portion of the time is spent in legislative session at the State Cap- itol where the legislators actually draft, introduce and pass bills which they would like to see en- acted into laws. They do this with- out help other than the necessary provisions from senior counsellors who assist by showing them the legal procedure for making laws. The legislators elect a 'speaker of the House of Representatives and speaker pro-tem, president and president pro-tem of the Senate and other officers such as sergeant- at-arms, bill reading-clerks and sec- retaries for both houses. Debate is conducted to strict parliamenta- ry procedure. On the lower levels of govern- ment, the city officials enact ordi- nances and set up means of prose- cution for violators in courts of law which -are conducted according to actual municipal 'court rules. Class instruction in law, oivil and economic administration, civil serv- ice, peace officer organizations and community development was con- ducted today, in addition to city and county elections. Party caucuses were slated for the evening where the citizens will nominate their candidates to the State Legislature. -----+----- Mrs. Buttram Hostess To WSCS Circle No. 4 Mrs. Wayne Buttram was hostess to Circle IV of the WSCS of the First Methodist Church, Monday afternoon.

To augment his capital, he found stockholders among the business- men of Osage, who were willing to invest in his future payrolls and the business .they would create. ,:When:they first turned on the .power,, March 3, 1946, Marr ran the machine hJnrself. Within, a month or so he was able to hire his first em- ployees-five of them. One of the five today manages the factory. Only FJve Machines When the new employees went.to work, the factory boasted two circle knitting mracurtes, which form the tubular parts ofi-rittens and gloves, and three flat machines, which fash- ion, fingers and thumbs. Now 85 workers keep 15 "circles" and 40 "flats" clicking busily away two shifts a day,. turning out com- plicated argyles, soft baby mittens and sturdy olive drab for service- men. The modern one-story plant has a peak capacity of 2,000 dozen pairs of glovTes or mittens a week. Next year Marr expects to increase pro- duction about 25 per cent, putting his payroll up close to 100. At first Marr acted as his own distributor, selling direct to the re- tailers. Now he works through job- bers, and has outlets coast-to-coast. Likes Small Towns 'Marr is convinced the knitting business has stayed in the east more from force of habit than economic necessity. "Shipping costs are small, when you break them down to so much per pair," he comments. "Wool goods are light. We can ship east, and compete easily with companies which manufacture there." Ask him why he stays in Iowa, and he'll tell you he likes it there- it's home. Ask him how he likes being in a small town, and he'll say "Fine!" "I like the people who work for us here," he says. "I like them better, and I like the quality of their work better, than you'd find in a big city. "They take more of an interest in the business. They look on it more as if it were their own." For the benefit of those home knitters who have used four needles, the circle machines have a flat needle for each stitch around the garment. They somewhat resemble a group of flattened crochet hooks arranged in a circle, pointing in- ward. As the yarn is passed around the inside of the circle, the hooks reach out in quick succession, each one drawing a new loop of yarn through the stitch it has been hold- inn. Leave For Texas ,Mrs. J. B. Traweek and daugh- ter, : Carol Traweek, left the latter .prt of the ;week for an extended visit with ,Mrs. Jack Brazeal ,in Wichita Falls, Texas.

Paymore What for? // . Fifty Years Forward on the American Road You don't have to ycostly-car prices for costly-car comforts. Ford brings you everything [and we mean everything] you've ever wanted in a car, at a price that's well within your reach! And according to recent surveys, a Ford returns more of its original cost when sold than any other car at afy prices Here Pcra few of the "Wor1b More" advantages you'll find in the'53 Ford: I.
