ETAOIN SHRDLU
by WESLEY R. RAMSEY


It would look like the mem-
bers of the County Commis-
sioners committed political ."ui-
cide as far as Port St. Joe voters
are concerned by rescinding
their resolution opposing the
Niles Road spur. Maybe they
should be told that the people
down here were bitterly against
that.
In looking over the minutes
of that meeting we are wonder-
ing if it was even a legal meet-
ing. According to the'way the
minutes read, there were no
written notices of the meeting
sent out. Maybe the County
doesn't require written notices.
we won't get into that until we
find out for sure.

It was a hard matter for us
to be against the spur, since we
personally like George Tapper.
What we couldn't figure out
was why he didn't make plain
to the people why he wanted
the spur. We understand that
it was to open up the property
for sale as lots. (This is strictly
hearsay, so please don't quote
it as facts). If this is so and he
had made it public, we believe
the citizens of the town would
'have gone along with him. We
know this citizen would have.
But the Garrison residents were
just naturally "gun-shy" and we
could understand their situation
especially when the other side
of the matter said nothing ex-
*ceiptthat "the spur is going to
go through". Such attitude just
doesn't go with people. You
can't blame the people for the
fact'either. Anything done in a
veil.,of secrecy smacks of a dirty
deal' Again you can't blame the
people for taking this attitude.
Now that we are going to get
the-spur anyhow, we sincerely
hope that worst of the Garri-
son Avenue residents fears are
not realized.

We went dove hunting for the
first time in our life. Saturday
afternoon. Now we aren't brag-
ging, but we got two out of
three. It wasn't good shooting or
accident. Nobody told us that
doves are hard to hit and one is
lucky to get the limit out of a
box of shells. We don't know
that fact so we just got this good
record on our first time out.

No doubt you have noticed
that the police chief is on a diet.
His name is now "slim" Griffin
instead of Buck. We asked Buck
about how much weight he had
lost. Buck replied, "Oh, I've lost
about 61 pounds and 13 and a
half ounces".
"About" he says.
I'll bet that'rascal has a chart
in the bathroom and he can
tell you day- by day how many
pounds he has lost since he star-
ted his diet.

Lose Fight To Halt

Spur Construction

Tapper Company Wins The
Contract. To Construct
Highway Cut-off

SThe residents of Garrison Avenue
lost their fight against a proposed
spur connecting Niles Road with
the new Apalachicola-Port St. Joe
short-cut highway last week when
contracts were let for the construc-
tion of the .road from the Gulf
County line to a point to the South
of Oak Grove where the short-cut
will connect with Highway 98.
included in the contracts for the
road was the specifications for the
construction of the disputed spur.
Garrison residents fought the spur
because they feared that at a later
date it would be turned into a
highway and that traffic would be
routed down Garrison Avenue. The
Garrison residents drew this opin-
ion from the fact that the Apala-
chicola-Port St. Joe was slated to
enter Port St. Joe by way of Gar-
rison Avenue before the residents
objected vigorously to the route
and had its location changed to a
point South of Oak Grove.
After the acceptance of -the new
route, the City of Port St. Joe took
steps to get Garrison Avenue ex-
tended to the Niles Road and pav-
ed for an access to the new Holly
Hill Cemetery.
Then the "spur" sprung up. The
Garrison residents, thought that it
would be an easy matter later on
to route the highway down the
then-javed Garrison Avenue and
on over the new spur to the new
highway.
The Garrison residents appealed
as a last resort to State Senator
George G. Tapper to sGO7p :he r1a"'
Tapper stated that he was unable
to do so.
The contract for the remainder
of the Port St. Joe-Apalachicola
short-cut highway and the connect-
ing spur was let to the George G.
Tapper Company.

Sharks Defeat Bay

High 'B's' Friday

By 26 Point Edge

The St. Joe Sharks went on a
scoring rampage against Bay High
"B", Team. Coach Craig employed
his bench as the Sharks coasted to
an easy 46-20 victory.
John Henry Pope started off the
scoring with an 8-yard sprint around
left end. Frank Dennis kicked the
extra point. Bay High came back to
score on a 31-yard pass play. Wal-
ler Wilder and Wayne Taylor
teamed up on some beautiful run-
ning and on the first play of the
second quarter Wilder scored on
an eight yard dash. Frank Dennis
again applied his magic toe for the
extra point. Later in the quarter,
Joe Adams passed to Wilder who
again went 16 yards to a touchdown.
The Sharks capitalized on a blocked
punt by Charles Smith and worked
the ball to the three-yard line
where John Henry 'Pope went over
for the touchdown. Adams passed
to Ronnie Chism for the extra point.
Bay High scored their second time
against the Shark reserves on a
15-yard pass play. Point attempt by
Bay was good and the Sharks were
in front at the half by a 27-14 score.
Walter Wilder took a lickoff la-
teral from Joe Adams on the half-
time kickoff and returned it 40
yards, to Bay High's 20. The Sharks
moved the ball down to the two
yard line where Joe Adams went
across 'on a quarterback sneak.
Gene Anderson joined in the scor-
ing spree to go 11 yards off tackle
for a touchdown as the third quar-
ter ended.
Wayne Taylor edded his talents
to the fracas to bull across to pay
dirt from the six yard line in the
iast quarter. Adams passed again
to Chism for the point. 'Bay High
made their final score to end the
game with the Sharks out in front
46-20.
The whole Shark backfield turn-
ed in some fine running with Wal-
ter Wilder leading the pack with
130 yards gained. Defensive stand-
outs were Charles Smith, Bert Munri
and Gene Raffield.

What a wonderful existence mankind
would have if all the troubles and prob-
lems of this word could be dumped into
a magician's hat-and then with a "presto,
change" they would all vanish.
Or, if you had such power, wouldn't it
be marvelous to rid ypprself of all per-
sonal worries?
But by our very nature, we are imper-
fect. While going it alone, we are incap-
able of perfect deeds and decisions.
Fortunately, there is a Greater Being
than ourselves who stands ready and
anxious to help us. To' Him we must 1,pk
for guidance and faith. And it is through
His Church, here on earth, that we can
best come to understand His will.
Attend Church this Sunday and every
Sunday. Here, in spite of all our weak-
nesses, we will become stronger men and
women. Here, we will learn to face the
future with a surer understanding of right
and wrong.


THE CHURCH FOR ALL .
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the QTo.e;i Fac-
tor on earth'for the tuldn of
,character and good citizenship, It
is a storehouse of spiritual values.
Without a strong Church, neither
democracy nor civilization can
survive. There are four sound
reasons why every person sholdI
attend services regularly and sup-
Port the Church. They are: (1)
For his sae. (2) For his
children's.cake. (3) For the sake
ol his community and ,tion.
For the sCke of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and mao-
terial support. Plan to go to
church regularly and read your
Bible daily.

"The sums for expansion can
come only if individuals are free
to save, if corporations are free to
earn a profit commensurate with
the risks involved, and if a fair
share of the earnings can be re-
tained without penalty from taxes
that are inequitable. These free-
doms must be jealously guarded,
for if they are not we may destroy
an economy that has brought plen-
ty to so many."
In addition to the climbing pay
scales, the booklet points out, "a
$7 billion benefit package is tack-
ed onto the paycheck of workers
in the U. S." The Du Pont Com-
pany alone "spends $12 million
year on its medical and benefits
programs; just one facet of it-
disability wages-meant the expen-
diture of $3.2 million by the com-
pany last year, and $35 million in
the past 17 years. On a nationwide
basis, 38 million people have some
protection against off-job disability,
and the benefits paid out in a typ-
ical year now total $475 million."
The booklet says that of tech-
nology s many contributions, none
has meant more to industrial em-
ployees than development of more
and better machines. Today, indus-
try provides each worker with
enough power-driven equipment to
equal the help of 236 human assis-
tants.
It dramatizes, too, the fact that
better tools mean more jobs. "The
past century, for instance, has been
one of mechanization. 'The crafts-
man's toolbox of 1854 has given
way to vast and intricate plants
and equipment that represent an

Accident Cause

TALLAHASSEE The. Florida
Highway Patrol this week pointed
out two frequently violated traffic
laws that cause a large per cent of
all wrecks and kill many people.
,Patrol records show that 2,295
wrecks last year were caused by
improper passing at intersections,
on hills and curves and other types
of improper passing violations
which accounted for 18 accidents
which killed one or more persons.
The laws which the driver vio-
lates when he passes on a curve,
approaching a hill, at intersections
and so on are:
The law against passing impro-
perly at ny of the previously men-
tioned places under any circum-
stances, and passing under such
conditions when the locations are
marked with yellow double lines
on the highway.
"There seems to be a lot of con-
fusion". declared Patrol Director
H. N. Kirkman, "about what the

The double solid line is used in
many places, such as some school,

railroad crossings, street and road
intersections, narrowing of four


lane highways to two lane roads,
at hill approaches, on curves and
in any other place where improper

Can't you tell just by looking that Chevrolet and General Motors
have come up with a completely new idea about the low-priced car?
The idea is this: to build a car that offers the very newest thing in
styling, the most modern features, the finest kind of performance
and the highest quality of manufacture-all at a modest price. It's
something that took a lot of doing and that only the world's leading
car builders could do. Everything's new in this Motoramic Chevrolet
from its lower top right down to its tubeless tires. Come in for the
most fascinating visit you ever made to an automobile showroom!

Santa Rosa Man Fined
For Causing Wild Fires
"Farm operators in this area will
be pleased to learn that their So-
cial Security reports have been
greatly simplified," Harry Scott,
manager of the Dothan District
Office announced this week. "Ef-
fective with January 1, 1955, the
qualifying quarter and the 60-day
rule are dropped as a requirement
for farm workers."
These changes became law with
the approval of the amendments
to the Social Security Act in Aug-
ust. 1954.
The old provision was cumber-
some and required the operator to
keep track of the number of days


a worker was employed in each
quarter. Now any farm worker who
is paid $100.00 or more in cash
wages per year by one employer is
covered by social security after
December 31, 1954, without res-
pect to the number of days worked.
This change will result in consider-
ably more farm workers getting the
advantage of coverage.
Additional information may be
secured from the Dothan District
Office at 109 W. Burdeshaw Street.

Washington seems dull and quiet
after high-spotting all sorts of pub-
lic activities throughout Florida
during the past two weeks. Some
of these meetings, dinners and ga-
therings were political. Some were
non-political. But, it is funny how
politics and the talk of politics al-
ways seems to come up wherever
we go. Take for example the ex-
citing Boat-a-cade which traveled
from Kisimmee to Lake Okeecho-
