RAMSEY 'T It's that time of the year again when the automobile dealers are sprucing up their show rooms, keeping everything veiled in secrecy and planning to give you the big surprise of better than ever auto- mobiles to tantalize and tempt you. Coming up Friday is the show- ing of the new Ford line. Next Friday, the Chevrolets, Pontiacs Sand' the new Ramblers will be unveiled. They are all beautiful, dependable automobiles. We would just urge you whb have the, "fever" to own a new 1966 auto to at least give the local dealers a try at trading with you. It won't hurt you. a bit to give them a chance and you might even save a buck! The Star marked another birthday two weeks ago and the occasion slipped by before we noticed it. We are now in our Twenty-Ninth year of publication. And never an issue has been missed. To top it all off, every issue has'been in the post office 'on time, despite the occasion of several storms and near storms that have virtually had this part of the state paralyzed on our nor- mal press day. Crowing over a 29th birthday seems sort of bleak in face of J the birthday celebrated last week when W. C. Forehand reached 'the century mark, but we must doif. Mr. Forehand had thanks to offer to those who had given him aid for the success enjoyed during his long career and we must not forget the faithful supporters we have had through the years who have made it possible to bring you thenews of Port St. Joe and Gulf County week after week. Our-Port St. Joe-Gulf County Chamber of 'Commerce has born the brunt of some harsh words during the past weeks. We believe these words' were undeserved and feel that the Chamber is due some public defense of their position. We must remember that the Chamber of Commerce is a tool for the building of Gulf County. This is uppermost in their plans and their only reason for existence. We believe they have fulfilled that charge with no exceptions. We believe their actions have been in the interest of the county even though some of us wish something else. It is not a matter Sof right or wrong in the case they involved in. It is a case of which the citizens of Gulf County would rather have. Chamber of Com- merce and governmental meetings in the county have been working v.in the dark long enough. They want to know'your wishes. They "are all run by reasonable men who desire to do your wishes. When you don't agree with a decision, let them know in a gentlemanly ,manner without "cussing" them out up and down the street and in - public. Differences of opinion are bound to crop up', but are certainly no basis for harsh words on the part of anyone, unless the expressed wishes of the public, after all facts have been made public, are con- tinually ignored. We do not think that the wishes of the people, where adequately expressed, have ever gone unheeded in Gulf County. Sharks Lose To Big Marianna SBulldogs Friday Play First Home Game Tomorrow With Rickards The inexperienced Shark football team took a shellacking at the hands of the Marianna Bulldogs in Marianna, last Friday night, 45-0. The Bulldogs chalked up 20 points in the first quarter, six in the second and 19 in the third. The Sharks held the Bulldogs score- less in the last period. Despite the heavy scoring ,and the inability of the Sharks to move the ball, Bulldog reserves were not sent in the game until the middle of the last period. The Bulldogs picked up 353 yards on the ground to 31 yards for the Sharks. The Sharks little sparkplug runner; freshman Don- ald Capps was tackled after picking up 4 nice gain in the first period and received a broken shoulder. -Coach Taylor said that Capps prob- ably will be lost for the season. In the Sharks opener, with Apalachi- cola, lineman Knapp Smith receiv- ed a leg injury which later proved to be a cracked bone. Big fullback Jimmy Cox re-injur- ed a sprained ankle in the Apala- chicola game, and Coach Taylor said that a sprain needs at least two weeks ta Jeal.

The clinic is a State Board of Health Dental Unit and is being conducted by Dr. William A. Thom- ason of the State Board of Health. The clinic will be in progress for about two months and will exam- .ne every child in Gulf County in he first three grades of school whose, parents are considered un- able to pay for such treatment. Ne- cessary .dental work will be per- formed free of charge. Already some 60 children have been examined and treatment sche- luled for about 30 of these. OVER $1,000 SPENT ON PROGRAM Since the beginning of the pro- gram in the early part of last year, over $1,000 has been spent by the Rotary Club on the program. Early last year, a State Board of Health Unit was provided and checked and treated all needy chil- Iren at Washington and Carver Schools. This past spring, local dentist, Dr. Robert E. King furnish- d his services when the club was unable to secure the dental unit rom the State Board of Health. Over 450 fillings and- extractions 'ere made in the project during' he last school year. It is estimated that the program ow underway will cost in the neighborhood of $350. The program is financed by the nuual Rotary Club sponsored harity Ball, which will be held his year on December 4. Cecil Curry is Rotary Club chair- nan of the project. Week End Burglars Hit Businesses Burglars were busy inPort St. didn't take a thing as far as the Joe business houses over the past owner, Maurice Hildbold: could tell. week pnd, according to Chief of Police, H. W. Griffin. Friday night of last week, burg- lars entered the Gene McCormick Gulf Service Station by a rear win- dow and broke into a cigarette ma- chine in the station. The amount Hildbold said that he was in the store around 11:00 but the burglars hadn't been there as yet. The thieves tipped over the safe of the Super Market in an apparent attempt to load it on a buggy to transport it to the rear of the store. The safe stood in the front of money taken was not known, but window,of the market. the haul wasn't expected to be very Chief of Police H. W.

Piggly Wiggly Super Market, but, A file cabinet in the office had been forced open but nothing ta- ken. All of the cash registers had some money in them, but it hadn't been bothered. Late Monday afternoon, the A & P Super Market discovered that it also had been an intended burglary victim over the week end. Manager R. F. Maxwell said that indications showed someone had broken into a "trash room" in the rear of the store, but were unable to get into the store. This market was burglarized last year through this same "trash room" when burglars knocked a hole in its concrete block walls to get into the store. This time they were not success- ful. Dr. William A. Thomason is shown above working on one of his young patients during the past week at the Port St. Joe Elemen- tary School. Dri. Thomason will examine all elementary students through the third grade and provide treatment free of charge where needed and where treatment cannot easily be borne by the parents. Sen. Tapper Tells University of Florida Students He Doesn't Like Apportionment Gainesville "Reapportionment is coming whether we like it or not . and personally I don't," State Sen. George Tapper said last Thurs- day night at the University of Flor- ida. Sen. Tapper, representing the Fifth District, said in his opinion the ruling of the Supreme Court was not in accordance with the Constitution and will upset the bal- ance of political power now exist- ing in the Legislature. "The one-man-one-vote philiso- phy works fine in theory," con- tinued the outspoken senator from Port St. Joe, "but when put into practice, it just doesn't work that way. "But reapportionment is here and we might as well establish a fair and adequate means of doing t,' he said. Tapper declared his fight against provisions in the pres- ent state bill was not an effort to stymie' the Legislature but to achieve fair representation for all people in the state. "I know my knowledge of the Dade County district would not qualify me to represent those peo- ple adequately and I am just as certain senators from that district are not qualified to give just rep- resentation to mine." Economy and problems differ greatly in the two districts, he said, and sufficient representation for both areas must be established. Education also is affected indi- rectly by the apportionment bill. "There is no reason why a child in a poorer county should be deprived of a good education just because his county does not have the means to provide it," he said. Tapper was involved in the strug- gle for reapportionment in the re- cent special session of the Florida Legislature and is chairman of the Appropriations Subcommittee on Higher Education and a member of the Committee on Elementary and Higher Education.

Such comment, all agreeing with us, should serve no- tice that the rank and file of the people in the county are tired of this situation too. We feel that-should these com- mnents be expressed to our civic leaders, our governments, both city and county, and those who mold our everyday ac- tivities, then our county will surely get on with progressing. As we said last week, we have a good county. We have two fine, hospitable towns in our county. We have some good people,. as good as you will find anywhere. There is no reason why we should have anything but good things to report from our activities. We havebeen pictured in the past. and some of it is .deserved like a cartoon that hangs in the office of Dick Lamberson at the St. Joe Auto Parts. The cartoon pictures two mules tied together, each trying to reach some green grass in a different direction. Neither is budging an inch, so both are consequently starving to death. There is plenty of green grass for both mules in both directions, if they would but pull together. We have a pine tree and sports economy in our county, sprinkled with a little beach tourism economy. The latter is growing by leaps and bounds. This leaves us three sources of income from which to make our place in the sun. There is room enough for every- one. The ironic situation is that if we do not pull in the same direction, we will each cut the other's throat, so to speak. It is time for us to realize, as any growing area must, that it is imperative that we forget petty jealousies, likes and dislikes and petty bickerings in order to nurture the goose that will ultimately lay the golden egg. A BASIC RIGHT .The battle to save section 14 (b) of the Taft-Hartley Act -the section which authorizes states to pass Right-to-Work laws forbidding compulsory union membership as a condition of employment-has not been lost, even though repeal has passed the House. Every legitimate effort isbeing made to save this essential protection of the worker in the Senate. At the same time, if 14(b) is repealed and workers can be forced to join and pay dues to a union or join the hungry ranks of the unemployed, Congress should at the very least .add another stipulation to the law. This has to do with a -tightening up of union certification procedures. That should only be done through secret elections conducted by the National Labor Relations Board. Certification which is ,gained through the signatures of workers on cards is totally satisfactory. Investigations have shown that, at times, signatures are forged or fictitious or have been obtained Through fraud, misrepresentation, coercion or other such methods. What is at stake here is the Right-to-Vote. As the Mem- phis Press-Scimitar puts it, "If a contract is to bind every Semploye to pay union dues whether he likes it or not, is it too much to ask for a secret ballot to make sure the union at least has majority support?" There is nothing antiunion in this. It would make it ac- curately and truly known whether any group of workers w Want or do not want union representation. This'is, beyond cavil, a basic right, and so is the right of choice to join or not join. HOW TO KEEP OUT OF TROUBLE If children were taught in the home by their parents and in the schools and Sunday schools by their teachers, one simple little rule of action, think of the sorrow and suffering it would save, not to mention the countless millions of dollars. This rule of action wouldn't require any new laws, it wouldn't cost a dime of taxpayers money, and it would re- duce the cost of law enforcement and court trials. Respect for the rule would eventually become automatic with most children as they, grew up. There wouldn't be so many news reports of murder, rob- bery, kidnapping, rape, purse snatching, automobile stealing, etc., etc. And what is the rule of action that would reduce our vicious crime record, if it became part of the thinking of children when it was taught to them daily by their parents and schools, along with suitable illustrations of what it meant? Rule-"Keep your hands off other people and other people's property." It's that simple to keep out of trouble. THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. m Im Sw-m "We've been very concerned about developing enough well- trained manpower to serve the needs of Florida's dynamic and growing agriculture," insisted Dr. E. T. York, Jr., provost of the In- stitute of Food and Agricultural Sciences. "With the progress we've made in these past few years, we are well on our way toward more ade- quately meeting those needs" York concluded. TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY By Russell Kay I haven't had anything to say about radio and television commer- cials for a while but I have been watching them and the more I watch the madder I get. In my book the darn things con- tinue to insult my intelligence and lower my respect for whoever is responsible for them. Maybe some folks believe 'em and rush out to buy this .or that otherwise they wouldn't continue to keep pouring out such drivel. Take the idiotic 'detergent com- mercial that has your washing machine' bounding up in the air like a rocket or something while that long suffering announcer screams, "It makes your washer clean like it was 10 feet tall." Who the hell wants to climb on a shaky stepladder to reach a beserk washer and what has 10 feet tall got to do with washing clothes. And then there is the screwy commercial about the product that gets you out o fthe kitchen fast. Some poor woman is cleaning her sink and accidentally pours a cer- tain leaner in the think. Whoops, she is swept off her feet and flies through the air with the greatest of ease. If she doesn't die of heart failure I miss my guess. And the guy that gallops through 'the countryside on the white horse jabbing his lance into whoever he meets. The poor sap doesn't even stop for a red light, why should he? He can jab it with his toad stabber and turn it white. Then there is Arlene Francis and Joseph Cotton both parroting ex- actly the same lines about their ter- rible headaches and how they take a certain product and can turn somersaults or walk down stairs on their hands because their head- ache has gone with the wind. And the faithful dog who walks 10 miles in the broiling sun to bring his master a package of cig- arettes and all the guy has to do is add a little love. And the poor woman who hesi- tates and stammers and stutters as she tells you how she suffers from arthritis and can hardly move her fingers until she takes a certain remedy then she can wiggle every- thing from her ears to her toes and it doesn't .hurt a bit. And the dumb children who re- fuse to brush their teeth. What is a poor mother to do, she tried to obey the commercial laws, but the rest of the family don't give a continental damn about their teeth, so she says, we brush every chance we get with you know what and thanks for the check mister. I'll be back tomorrow to scare your cus- tomers with warning about what will happen if they don't sprain their ankles rushing to the drug store for this or that remedy. They kid Los Angeles about air pollution, but brother it is a na- tional affliction and it is getting worse.

State Treasurer Broward Wil- liams, who has served in many capacities of the Reunion, headed the committee this year that raised the money to replace the old tab- ernacle with a modern steel struc- ture. Under the spreading live oaks around the Methodist church that was founded by a Williams, the family will gather from many states and many.walks of life. A traditional one-hour program will begin at 11 a. m., followed by "dinner on the ground," the noon- time highlight of the festive day. The 250-foot-long table, 5 feet wide will be piled with tons of food prepared by some of the best cooks in the Florida Panhandle. This famed reunion draws politi- cal bigwigs from Washington to Tallahassee. Congressman Bob Sikes estimated a few years ago that he had 10,000 Williamses in his First District. Judge Alto Adams, a member of the clan and former Chief Justice of the Florida Supreme Court, will be the speaker this year. As all other speakers are charged to do, he will speak on the Williams fam- ily. So as the sun comes up on Satur- day morning, Oct 2 ,it will again be their day at Galilee. < a v c ) i r J. tNW 00 PH I LCOI 2020 COLOR TV ' IT SWIVELS! permits viewing from anywhere in the room Philco Automatic Color Lock Control lets you move or turn the set In any direction without disturbing the Color picture.

The speaker, P. W. "Bill" Eckey, Assistant State Highway Engineer of planning, chose as his topic, Governor Burns "All Florida Road Improvement Program." His full knowledge of the subject made a very interesting speech on a sub- ject that few of our citizens know about. For instance, Franklin Coun- ty ,as well as Gulf, Liberty, Cal- houn and Wakulla, will not have any four-lane projects. However, when the bond program is activat- ed, it will provide $75,000,000 each year for four years to convert pres- ently heavily traveled two-lane roads to four-lanes. This will cause some forty to forty-three million in regular primary funds to become available for budgeting to improve less heavily traveled two-lane roads. In response to questions, Mr. Eckey asked Mr. Kilbourn to com- ment. Mr. Kilbourne stated that he could not commit the Road Board. However, such projects as the re- alignment and widening of U. S. 98 between Apalachicola and Medart, with a new bridge at Carrabelle and similar needed projects in other counties will move up on the pri- ority lists. The bridge at Jackson Bluff, in Liberty County, State Road 20, in Calhoun County; Fifth Street in Port St. Joe, and others will be given careful and construc- tive consideration, when the addi. tional funds are available. Mr. Kil- bourn further urged his fellow FranklinCounty taxpayers to sup port the bond amendment, on No- vember 2nd, for personal selfish reasons as well as for the con- tinued growth and progress of all Florida.

THE PHYSICIAN: AN IMPORTANT MEMBER OF THE ATHLETIC TEAM The medical care of athletes has been improving with the years. Team physicians have a responsibility not only to treat the injured player in a manner to get him back into play as soon as possible, but to protect him from getting injured. A careful physical examination and a consideration of the history co past illnesses and injuries are considered necessary. Vision and. hearing have a great deal to (;. with the perfect coordination. necessary in preventing acci- dents among athletes. Team physicians can do much to urge personal cleanliness and hygiene in the athlete, for it is a well known fact that athlete's foot, boils and carbuncles are common ad disabling in ath- letic programs. The ideal ar- rangement for high s c h o o I athletics is to have a full-time trainer regularly present in the athletic area. This person should be well informed on the pre- 'vention of injuries and illltesses among athletes and able to take proper care of such athletes un- til they, are seen by the team physician. One of the difficult decisions a team physician must make is when to permit an injured play- er to return to practice. The coaching staff is anxious to have the player back with the team, and the player usually feels this way too. The team physician's first concern is the welfare of the injured athlete and his dan- ger of being reinjured by re- turning too soon to the game. While physicians are not usu- ally experts on athletic equip- ment, they do know the anatom- ic parts to be protected and can be of valuable help in selecting the best equipment. The team physician should play an im- portant position in the game. nd and PINES ary Stand Tall by est- In Florida's ty, Future!

HERE ARE THE FACTS AND A PROPOSAL AS TO HOW THE QUES- TION MAY BE SATISFACTORILY RESOLVED. The question is not whether a park or private' development will be more benefi- cial to the economy and interest of the county. Both arie extremely important. We have the park, consisting of 671 acres already purchased. The access road is h under costa ru ion. Tha park is a fact No one opposes the park-we are all fur it. But there are no plans whatever for developing the northern area of the present site. It will be left in its natural state, which'is good. But the park as now constituted, according to the park commit- tee, has 81/ miles of white sand beach. Does it need, or could it reasonably use, an additional 1747 acres with an added 20 miles of water front property? Accord- ing to the park committee, there would be 14 miles of Gulf frontage and another 14 miles on St. Joseph's Bay. Can we honestly 'say that adding this vast additional acreage to the present park would cause even one extra or additional person to visit the park? EXAMPLE OF ST. ANDREWS STATE PARK Investigation of St. Andrews State Park has shown that it has 1022 acres, of which only 300 acres can be utilized as camping ground. Nevertheless, only 150 acres have actually been developed, and there are no immediate plans for further development. The vast majority of visi- tors to the park are local people and visi- tors to the beaches who enjoy the fishing along the jetties. Unfortunately, we do not have such an attraction as the jetties. The point is that the size of the park, if it is initially adequate, has no effect upon at- tendance. How many thousands upon thousands of people could enjoy 671 acres and 8/2 miles of beach, without being crowded; or even being near one another? We feel that the present park area is more than adequate to provide park facilities to all of the potential visitors within the fore- seeable future. COUNTY TO BENEFIT FROM PRIVATE PURCHASE On the other hand, how much benefit would Gulf County and it's people receive if this large attractive 1747 acre tract was permitted to be purchased by private enter- prise for development? First, the unimproved property would immediately be placed on the tax assess- ment roll at a figure approximating its cost, which we believe, now that the pro- perty will be accessible by paved road, will not be less than $750 per acre. (Some 50 surplus acres just south of the park area was bid in several years ago at a price of $300: per acre, when this property could only be reached by boat or jeep). This is equal, tax wise, to a new industry locating in our county with taxable assets of $1,- 310,250, and the beautiful part about it is that we already have it, if we don't forfeit it and let it go by default. EXISTING PRIVATE HOLDINGS DUE TO BE REVALUED Mention has been made of the approxi- mately 1500 acres of peninsula land own- ed by Mr. Ed C. Wright, lying on the sou- thern half of the peninsula, which has not been developed, and which is on the tax roll at a low figure.- We have no control over Mr. Wright's affairs, nor his land, but think carefully for a moment. If the land lying to the north of the park is purchased at $750 per acre and placed on the tax roll at such an approximate figure under the present policy of 100% valuation that Tax Assessor Sammy Patrick has announced will be effective in 1966, doesn't it stand to reason that under the new 100% policy, Wright's 'land must be assessed on the same basis as other private property locat- ed on the peninsula? This means that we will be collecting practically new taxes on approximately 3250 acres assessed at a total value of over $2,400,000. At the pres- ent millage rate of 51.8 mills, this property would have brought in $122,880 this year in taxes to Gulf County, over $50,000 of which would have gone to the schools for possible raises in teacher's salaries. REALISTIC VALUATION WILL RESULT IN RAPID DEVELOPMENT Let's look further. The high cost of the land, with its continuing, tax burden, will make it necessary that the owners, Mr. Wright included, develop and dispose of their holdings without undue delay. Otherwise, the taxes will eat up their pro- fit. The present tax burden will, of course, be lightened by virtue of thh 100% valua- tion policy, which will put thousands of homesteads on the taxable rolls. Never- theless, good business judgment would re- quire that development of peninsula land not be delayed. Home owners, becoming advalorum taxpayers for the first time in 1966, should take note that private develop- ment outside the park on the peninsula in i a om. ana me refrigerator section deirosts itself auto- - WJ a matically. See it now at... WSt. Joe MA.W Hardware o.diCoa.oA St. Joe Hardware Co. will result in yearly reduction of their tax- es, as these, lands develop and more im- provements are placed on the tax rolls. THE WHOLE COUNTY WILL BENEFIT Can we really anticipate that the addi- tional acreage will be developed, and if so, what effect would it have on the rest of the County? Let us look at neighboring Bay County. After World War II, the people of Bay County became aware of the real potential of their beaches. They advertised and promoted. Today, Bay's greatest industry is the tourist trade at- tracted to its fabulous resort area. Mil- lions upon millions of dollars have been invested in hotels, motels, courts, amuse- .ment areas, shopping centers and private summer homes, all now appearing on the taxable rolls of that county. Naturally, it didn't happen overnight, nor will our beach area blossom overnight, but it paid off for the far-sighted people of Bay Coun- ty, and it will just as surely pay off for us, if we protect what we are indeed fortunate to have. BEACHES CONTRIBUTED TO BAY COUNTY'S FAST GROWTH Look at Destin Beach, 100 miles to the west of us. It developed even faster than the Panama City Beaches into a de- luxe motel area. What happened to Pan- ama City as a result of this new county industry? In 1940, Panama City had a population of 11,610. By ,11950, it had grown to 25,814. The. no'Ibim., in 1965, a population of close to*tCA4 The pro- moters of Panama City v.*i'it to the beaches for their explosive iwth. And these Panama City people 'doq( .''go home in the winter, they are permanent residents. Between 1950 and 1960, Bay County's pop- ulation increased from 42,689 to 67,131. Will property values continue to rise in Gulf County as a result of the develop- ment of the beach area? Ask the people in Panama City. An undeveloped strip ly- ing between U. S. 98 and the Gulf of' Mex- ico, in West Panama City Beach, was val- ued at $2.4 million by the Chairman of the Planning and Zoning Board of that City. Private ownership and development of that' part of St. Joseph's Peninsula not used as' a park is the greatest industrial potential, this County could ever have. Did you know that Mexico Beach property, at this stage still a relatively small development, is on the tax rolls of Bay County at 35% of value at a figure of $1,090,000, representing in- .vestments of roughly $3,000,000.? Can Gulf County afford to lose this type of tax revenue so badly needed by the schools for operation expenses and increased teachers' salaries, and by the county commissioners to keep pace with other progressive coun- ties? We think not. CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AND COUNTY COMMISSIONERS BACK PRIVATE OWNERSHIP Your Chamber of Commerce, it's Board of Directors, and the Committee on Industrial Development, in particular, are charged with the responsibility of attract- ing new industry into the county. This is the primary purpose of the Chamber. The members of the Chamber's Board of Direc- tors, after considering the facts presented here, agreed that it was their duty to the members of the Chamber and to the citizens of the county to take immediate action to see that Gulf County did not lose by de- fault the most prized potential it had. They recognized that it would be difficult to attract industry to Gulf County unless we could get the millage lowered substan- tially from 51.8 mills. They realized that if the additional 1747 acres were placed upon the tax roll, our millage would be low- ered considerably, and local taxpayers, in- cluding those home owners who will pay advalorum taxes for the first time next year, would be greatly benefitted. They knew that additional taxes could in this way be raised for schools and county pur- poses without unduly burdening the indi- vidual tax payers. The Board of County Commissioners, following a public hearing, adopted a Re- solution by majority vote, also favoring public ownership of the surplus peninsula acreage. They shared the feeling of the Chamber's Board of Directors that we can- not afford to forfeit the greatest potential asset our county possesses. IS THERE A MIDWAY SOLUTION? Now, what can be done to consolidate the efforts of both sides of this issue, and work for a common cause beneficial to our county-and still satisfy the most adamant supporters of an enlarged State Park? While in Tallahassee, we discussed this mat- ter.at great length with the State Park and Recreation Planning Board. They said the Park Service would much prefer that St. Joseph's Peninsula State Park be located at the northern tip of the peninsula, if all of the area was not to be included in the park. Their reasoning is sound. As many do not know, the park will not be free. There will be an admission fee of probably seventy-five cents, and there must necessarily be a gate and toll house. If an access road ran through the park to the area of private development, there would be the problem of collecting tolls. While this is not insurmountable, and could be handled, it would, none the less, create somewhat of a problem for the park officials. A PROPOSAL TO PERMIT BOTH PARK EXPANSION AND PRIVATE DEVELOPMENT In fairness to. the Park Board, the local park committees, and those who have supported the operation, it is respectfully suggested that all parties get together and come to an agreed common purpose for the benefit of our county. The following proposal is put forward in the hope that it will provide a meeting ground for all points of view: 1. Petition the State and Federal Governments to trade the 671 acres as now described in the park area for a like number of acres beginning at the ridge line of St. Joseph's Spit as a northern boundary. 2. Request the State of Florida to purchase an additional 329 acres on the ':south end of 'said property,, to make a park area of 1,000 acres, not including the ex- 'treme end of the sand spit. 3. Sell the remainder of the excess property at public auction. Now, this will give the Park consider- ably more than the present 8% miles of beach front, over 1,000 acres in area (equal in size to the State's average large park), an area not crossed by a public road, an area which will include the site of the old Spanish, settlement discovered last year, the saf it we all take so much pleasure in i.rjnj'd a natural cove on the Gulf side of~' t. I am W d:rised that no structures have been erected by the Park Service on. the original site,: and clearing work is all that has been accomplished, due to lack of ac- cess road; therefore, there should be no problem there. While there may be other problems, by a concerted effort of all in- terested in the Park and private develop- ment, we can work them out together. I am ready to go to Tallahassee or Washing- ton anytime at my own expense for the purpose of furthering this proposal. Those of you who favor this proposal, and want to protect Gulf County's future, will you please call 227-7161, Port St. Joe, and let us know your thoughts and ideas. We do want and need your help. SILAS R. STONE The foregoing has been presented in the pub- lic interest by Silas R. Stone, Port St. Joe attorney and businessman. Mr. Stone acted as spokesman for the Board of Directors of the Port St. Joe- Gulf County Chamber of Commerce and a majority of the Gulf County Board of County Commission- ers in appearing before the State Cabinet on Sep- tember 21, 1965. He requested the Cabinet not to place the additional 1747 acres of prime penin- sula resort area beyond the realm of private de- velopment and beyond the taxing power of the County. At the conclusion of thU~ ea ing, the Cabinet directed that the questioA f,p Rchasini the 1747 acres be set aside until he oi the Park Board could reanalyze and rieapB^ th( situation in view of the facts presenak further recommendations on its fin Declared Surplus By The Federal Government.

One touchdown run covered 54 yards. RICKARDS HERE TOMORROW NIGHT Tomorrow night, the Sharks will play their first home game, taking to the field at 8:00 p.m. against Rickards High of Tallahassee. The Sharks met Rickards for the first time last year and lost a heart- breaker. The Rickards team is reported to be larger and more experienced this year than last. Lack of game experience has played havoc with the Sharks this year, and they have yet to score. THE YARDSTICK St. Joe Mar.

William Cullen Forehand, foun der of Highland View, was honor ed by the population of Gulf Coun ty Saturday afternoon at the High. land View Elementary School on the occasion of his 100th birthday. Hosts for the giant party were the officers of the Wewahitchka State Bank. During the afternoon, Forehand told some of his recollections of his life over Station WJOE and to the assembled crowd. His many friends and guests at the party enjoyed a free fish sup- per and sampled the giant birthday cake baked for Mr. Forehand by. Mrs. Nils'Millergren of \\'Weahitcbi ka. W. C. Forehand was born on a farm in Grant County, Indiana. on September 26, 1965. His father was Lewis Forehand, the son of a pioneer who had come from. near Raleigh, North Carolina, in a cov- ered wagon about 1823 and located in this section of Indiana. : When Mr. Forehand was ,12'ears old he quit school and went to work in a general store in'Klokomo to help the family finances which were bad during the great "panic" of 1873. He earned 50c a week at his first job. During his early career, Mr. Forehand was noted as quite a horse trader (as some in these parts had already suspected). He was always scrupulously: honest, while being a sharp- trader. Most of Mr. Forehand's life be- fore coming to ,Gulf County has been spent in various real estate and merchandising enterprises. At one time he abandoned his forte, that of real estate dealing and went to Seattle, Washington where he was promptly chased back to Koko- mo by the climate and winter wea- ther. Once again he and his family, moved to central Washington where he tried sheep ranching, but soon moved back to Kokomo. Only on 'one other occasion did Mr. Forehand desert his knack of dealing in real estate and merchan- dise-iand moved to Wisconsin to '-it^fto th: !::d mine prospecting ,.< ., * - business.- He didn't dq so well at - this either, and so moved back to - Kokomo..:.,.: In 1936, now a widower, and 71 :years old,- Mr. Forehand heard Sof the p'per mill to be built here in Poi t St JJe and came to Gulf SCounty, His tilht move was to pur- chase pait of what is now Highland View, plat it, and develop it as real estate. I i December 1939, he married Mrs. AMary. Brooks- Kennington and the couple are still living in their home in Highland View. "., foehand has one son, by his ;Jst marriage, Harry V. Forehand .',ib also' lies in Highland View. :He has two grandchildren, Mrs. Florence E\el.n Ewing of Arling- ton Heielht-. Illinois and William Cooper Forehand of Seattle, Wash- ington. He also has seven great- grandchildren ranging in ages from eight months to 21 years. In spite of little schooling, Mr. Forehand who was largely self-edu- cated, acquired a great deal of knowledge. He was at avid reader and acquired quite a library which included Ridpath's History of the world and many other serious works. He was also a student of the Bible and was familiar with Bible history and doctrine. During the early of his first marriage, he and ,his wife belonged to the "Friends" church. When they went to live in Pennville, Pa., there was no Friends church there and they at- tended the Methodist Church. When he came to Highland View, he joined 'the Methodist Church here and has been a faithful mem- ber, participating in its activities, giving of his time and substance and contributing to the Christian fellowship of his community. At the age of 100 years, still physically active and mentally alert, his active influence in the community is felt and acknowledg- ed; and he can look with satisfac- tion not only on the accomplish- ments and successes he has achiev- ed, but may also look forward to continuing activity and service to his fellow men. ful Gymkana Court at Florida State!

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1965 as soon after the first of the year Dccr ,hw Covered By Social Security Act By Nbw Changes In Amended Law Doctors of medicine are covered by Social Security as self-employed people for the ta xyear 1965, John V. Carey, Distict Manager of the Panama City Social Security Office, said today. Prior to the 1065 amendments, the medical doctor could not get Social Security credit on his income from the private *practice of his profession. most that any person can pay on for the tax year 1965. Doctors who do not have Social Security account numbers should obtain one before they file their 1965 Federal income tax return. Doctors who were born before January 2, 1891, will qualify for monthly Social Security payments effective for September 1965 as Doctors will make their reports soon as they file their first self- along with their Federal income employment tax return, Carey con- tax'return, the same as all other tinued.

This can be done as the doctor gets his 1965 tax re- turn filed. He should bring proof of his age with him to file the So- cial Security claim. If such a doc- tor is married and his wife is at least age 72, she should come in, bringing proof of her age, to file her Social Cecurity claim. Younger doctors will establish survivor protection for their fami- lies if they live through April 1, 1966, even though they hod no So- cial Security credits prior to tax year 1965, Carey further stated. Many younger doctors, however, have Social Security credits from active service in the Armed Forces or from working in their profes- sion as an employee. For full details, contact your nearest Social Security office or call us and ask for free fact sheet, No. 7, Social Security for Physi- cians. All doctors should be sure to file a proper tax return for 1965, and doctors born before January 2, 1891, can make a claim for bene- fits early in 1966.

FIRE PREVENTION WEEK OCTOBER 3-9 Announcing: Mercury for 1966 Tallahassee The special bear \hunts being held in the Apalachi- cola and Osceola National Forests are off to a very successful start. The managed hunts which begin September 20 have accounted for three bears after four and one-half days of hunting. The first bear recorded on the Apalachicola hunt was a 350 pound male bagged by Lloyd Gilmore, a 28 year old hunter from Bay Coun- ty. The bear was shot on Septem- ber 22, the final day of the first three-day hunt. On the same date three hunters were in on the bagging of the first bear of the Osceola hunt, a 160 VETS CHECKS CAN BE SENT Florida Dove Hunters Take to FieldsDIRECT TO BANK FOR DEPOSIT Saturday for First Phase of Season Tallahassee-Florida's dove hunt- ers will take to the field at 12:00 noon Saturday, October 2, when the first phase of the 1965-66 mi- gratory dove hunting season opens statewide, according to W. B. Cope- land, Chairman, Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission. Hunting- will be allowed every day from 12:00 noon until sunset through November 7, except in that portion of Franklin County known as Alligator Point. Dove hunters will be allowed a a bag limit of 12, with a total pos- session limit of 24. Hunters must possess valid hunting licenses, available from all County Judges. Shotguns must be plugged to three- shell capacity, and rifles are pro- hibited for taking migratory birds. The second phase dove hunting starts November 20 and continues through December' 5. The third season opens December 18 and closes January 3. Copeland said, "There will be strict patrolling on early dove and marsh-hen shooting by both State and Federal law enforcement offi- cers to see that all regulations are enforced. We urge all hunters to abide by all hunting regulations and to hunt safely at all times. Hunters should remember that when they hunt on the lands of another person, they are guests. Respect the owner's rights and property. Good manners keep down posters which keep you out." Twenty-Two Public Dove Fields Set Up To Serve Hunting Public Tallahassee Florida hunters will have an opportunity to hunt dove on twenty-two public dove fields managed by the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission dur- ing the 1965-66 hunting season. The fields are located in sixteen coun- ties and will require a $2.00 daily hunting permit with the exception of fields in the Third Conservation District, according to W. B. Cope- land, chairman, Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission. Public dove fields are located in Polk, Highlands, Charlotte, Duval, Suwannee, Franklin, Jackson, Bay, Gadsden, Palm Beach, Indian River, Broward, Dade, Collier, Orange and Seminole counties. Other public dove fields are located on the Eg- lin Military Reservation in Oka- loosa, Santa Rose and Walton coun- ties and in the Apalachicola Na- tional Forest in Leon, Wakulla and Liberty counties. Public dove fields in the Third Conservation District will require a regular $5.00 public hunting per- mit except for the field located in Franklin County which will require a special $3.00 seasonal permit.. The fields located on the Eglin Military Reservation require a $1.00 daily permit. The dove fields lo- cated in the Apalachicola National Forest require no special permit. In addition to dove field permits all hunters must possess valid hunt- ing licenses and abide by both statewide hunting regulations and special dove field rules. Dove field permits, special regulations and in- formation may be obtained at the fields or at any of the five Com- mission regional offices at Panama City, Lake City, Ocala, Lakeland and West Palm Beach. According to Copeland, the pro- gram of public dove hunting fields was originated several years ago as an experimental operation and serve a two-fold purpose. They pro- vide additional public shooting grounds for the hunter and a prov- ing ground for managed public hunting on small areas. Over the past seasons, the dove field pro- gram has proven to be highly suc- cessful and popular with the hunt- ers. It is hoped that more private landowners may follow this exam- ple and open their lands for a similar controlled hunt in the fu- ture. St. Petersburg-M. T. Dixon, of the Florida Department of Veter- ans Affairs, stated today that bene- fit checks 'from from the Veterans, Administration may be sent direct to the beneficiary's bank for de- posit to his account. This arrangement is convenient for veterans who travel, or fort those who have frequent changes" of address, Dixon pointed out. A complete explanation of the arrangements may be obtained by. contacting any Veteran County Service Officer, or by writing to Dixon at P. 0. Box 1437, St. Peters- burg. Contrary to former legal require- ments, checks may now be for- warded to a beneficiary who has moved, provided the addressee has left a forwarding address with the Post Office, Dixon said. pound male. The third bear recorded was a 180 pound male bagged on the Apalachicola hunt by H. G. Starl- ing of Panama City. Starling col- lected his trophy on the first day of the second special hunt. On Sep- tember 24, hunters in the Apalachi- cola area missed an opportunity to raise the total when one hunter shot at but missed the fourth bear. The special bear hunts will con- tinue through November 6, for a tptal of twenty-eight special three- day hunts. Reports from both areas indicate an abundance of bear and the 1065 hunts are expected to ex- ceed last year's total harvest of 29 bears. a new definition of driving pleasure Moving ahead in the Lincoln Continental tradition This is the year to move-ahead to the new.

PHONE 227-2471 The Florida Forest Service is seeking 250 high school dropouts for 26 weeks of in-the-job training under the federally-financed Neigh- borhood Youth Corps program. According to State Forester C. H. Coulter, the program will in- clude six hours a week of adult education classes and 32 hours of work-and-training with the forest service. Age limits are 16-21. En- rollees must be a dropout for at least six months before becoming eligible. Also, he or she should be from a low-income family. It's ex- pected that 10 women will be hired in the program. Trainees will be taught clerical work, carpentry, painting, opera- tion of heavy equipment, aircraft maintenance, forest fire fighting, and forest management techniques. They will receive $1.25 per hour. Those who qualify will be consid- ered for regular positions as open- ings occur. Persons interested in joining the program should contact their local state employment office. The Florida Forest Service re- cently completed a summer pro- gram employing 400 in-school youngsters. The new program will include more vocational training. It's expected that trainees will receive their six hours of weekly classroom instruction from county school systems. The Florida Board of Forestry has applied for $285,000 in federal funds to finance the winter pro- gram. The state proposes to match this with in-kind services equal to 10% of the cost of the program. GREAT LIPE. Say, is this any way to run a household? You bet it is... in a Medallion home.

GRAVY DINNER ... 49c By MICHELLE ANCHORS Many important events have caught the senior class up in a whirl of activity during the past few weeks. There are probably few seniors who realized that this year would hold so many wonderful ac- tivities. Last Thursday, Jake Belin and Christie Coldewey were elected Mr. and Miss St. Joe High. The entire class joined in congratulating them on this high honor. Ann Belin and Jake Belin were elected senior favorites, another high honor. The senior class has also an- nounced their gift to the school. New curtains will be bought for the auditorium stage. Any money left in the class treasury will be given to the library fund. Tonight at 8:00 Mr. Otis Pyle will honor the senior class with a party. It is to be held at the St. Joe Motor Company on Monument Avenue. The seniors will be given the first local preview of the 1965 Fords. At this party Mr. Pyle will present the seniors with $100 for the class treasury. This is a very generous gesture by Mr. Pyle and the senior class is extremely grate- ful to him. Saturday, September 18th, mem- bers of the Key Club attended a rally in Marianna. The boys were advised in effective club procedure and told of coming Key Club events. All boys, reported a profit- able day. The Key Club will be sell- ing popcorn at the home football games and would greatly appreci- ate you support in this project. Last week the Key.Club also held an important election.

Friday night our band gave an entertaining half-time show in Ma- rianna. This was the band's first performance for the year and it added much to the evening's activ- ity. ----- ---- FLORIDA'S AIRPORTS SHOW INCREASED FREIGHT TRAFFIC Through Florida's airports pass- ed imports and exports valued last year at $212 million and weighing 126 million pounds, the Florida State Chamber of Commerce re- ported in its Weekly Business Re- view released recently. "The value of this trade with foreign countries was 18 per cent ,over 1963 and the volume was up 19 per cent. "A breakdown of totals into ex- ports and imports shows that the former is far in excess of the lat- ter. "During the year, exports worth $180 million weighing 99 million pounds left Florida by air. The in- creases over 1963'were 27 per cent and 19 per cent respectively. "Imports airlifted into Florida were valued at $32 million and weighed 27 million pounds. This value was up 13 per cent over 1963 while the volume dropped 5 per cent. "Virtually all of Florida's foreign trade carried by air is with coun- tries in the western hemisphere. Waterborne foreign commerce is not included in these tabulations." SAY YOU SAW IT IN THE STAF CARD OF THANKS I would like to thank my many friends for their thoughtfulness during my recent illness. Would especially like to thank each one for their prayers, visits, cards, phone calls and the beautiful flow- ers, the doctors and St. Joe Hos- pital staff for their kindness, and watchful care. May God ricshly bless each of you is my prayer. Thanks, William Roemer. Cancer Society Offers Popular Pamphlet Again Because of a wide public interest and demand for the free educa- tional pamphlet, "Things You Should Understand If You Want a Cancer Examination," the Florida Disvision of the American Cancer Society is again offering without cost a second printing of this in- formative piece of literature. The pamphlet emphasizes how early detection of cancer and prompt, proper treatment of cer- tain types of the disease can help save many lives that might other- wise be lost. Among types of cancer discussed in the pamphlet are: cancer of the breast, prostate, cancer in males, cancer of female genital organs; cancer of the skin, nose, mouth, throat, and rectum. It also lists "Cancer's 7 'Danger Signals" for quick reference to certain symp- toms that might be noticed in the human body. The pamphlet has been approv- ed by the Florida Cancer Council, Florida Medical Association and the Florida State Board of Health. It is the consensus of many prom- inent specialists on cancer that this pamphlet, if read and referred to by every citizen in Florida, could provide a source of information which could help retard the rising cancer death rate in Florida. Last year, cancer was the cause of death of 9,668 Floridians of all ages. Free copies of the pamphlet, NEW BOATS See the ex- citing news in boats for 1966. New comfort. New beauty. New value.'

ENGLISH LEATHER Toiletries for Men By Mem Company, New York SMITH'S PHARMACY Drive-In Window At Rear ASTRONAUT-PHYSICIAN J. P. KERWIN HEADS SEAL DRIVE Jacksonville Astronaut-physi- cian Joseph P. Kerwin, 33-year-old Navy lieutenant commander, who recently was called from duty as flight surgeon at Cecil Field Naval Air Station in Jacksonville to be- come an astronaut in training at NASA's Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston, Texas, has been named Florida's Honorary Chairman of the 1965 Christmas Seal Campaign. The announcement of Dr. Ker- win's appointment was made this week by Tom S. Coldewey of Port St. Joe, president of the Florida Tuberculosis and Respiratory Dis- ease Association. Dr. Kerwin, in accepting the as- signment to head the fight against tuberculosis and other respiratory diseases, said that as a practicing Navy doctor he has had the oppo- tunity to diagnose and treat some cases of tuberculosis. "TB remains a difficult problem today," he said, "although tremen- dous progress has been made in the past fifty or so years, both in diag- nosis and treatment. Its cure, its prevention, and its eventual eradi- cation are possible only through generous public support of a con- tinuing first-class scientific effort. "The National Tuberculosis Asso- ciation and its affiliated associ- ations represent such an effort. Tho annual Christmas Seal C2m- paign both symbolizes this effort and makes it possible. If I can in any way, however small, contribute to its success, I am fortunate and grateful."
