Need Stressed for


Current Blood Bank


T.he local, medical association,
assisted by the Port St. Joe Jay-
ceettes, will conduct a much
needed drive to replenish Port
St. Joe's Walking Blood Bank.
Aall-out effort has been set
for.,Sunday, September 17. Typ-
ing stations will be set up from
2:003toYi,4;O in the afternoon at
the .oi|lwing locations: the Mu-
niciial .Hospital, the Highland
View Elementary School lunch-
o i, | the; Washington High
ahooli auditorium and the First
)AOtoS;st Church at Mexico


will be no charge for
'bne's blood typed, and
. Joe's doctors and the
tes urge everyone to take


advantage of this free service to
learn his own blood type.
No blood will be taken at the
typing stations, and typing is
done quickly and painlessly. A
doctor or nurse will stick the
end of a finger for a blood sam-
ple.
There is no obligation, but
Port St. Joe's need for an up-to-
date Walking Blood Bank is very
real. A person whose name ap-
pears on it may never be called
upon to give blood but, on the
other hand, might someday be
privileged to' save a life.
. Everybody -in the area may
justifiably feel.more secure when
the needs of the Walking Blood
Bank are met.

By Two Votes

By the slim majority of two
votes, Mexico Beach voted to be-
come an incorporated community

At the close ofthe polls Tuesday,
most of the races, including the

close to be decided without count-
ing the 13 absentee ballots. The
Bay County Commission confirmed -
the vote yesterday morning and
counted the absentee ballots, giv-
ing 63 votes for incorporation and
61 against.
Charles Parker, developer of the

first mayor. Parker polled 66 votes
in gaining his victory. His near-
est opponent, E. E. Crooms polled
52 votes. Gerald Strobel received

ly Hayes, who had 61 votes.

%dams, Officials Meet


socially for Conversation
A


Secretary of State Tom Adams
met informally with a group of
local civic and government leaders
at the Motel St. Joe yesterday,
just before Adams was to speak
at the dedication of the T. H. Stone
Memorial State Park on St. Joseph
Peninsula.
Adams held an informal ques-
tion and answer period, in which
he expressed his hopes for the fu-
ture of the local park and explain-
ed some of the points in the new
proposed Constitution.
Adams said that chances are
very good that more money will
be spent on T. H. Stone State
Park during the present biennium.
He said that the U. S. Government
is expected to abandon its docu-
mentary stamp tax the first of the
year and that the Legislature has
decided to pick up this source of
revenue, if the U. S. abandons it,
and use the money for acquisition
of sites and development of state
parks.
At present the state receives
money for park development from
a sporting goods tax. Adams said


the Legislature decided to drop
the sporting goods tax if the new
source becomes available. The new
source would provide twice the
money now available.
Adams said "a few years ago, a
state park or historic memorial was
a place with two or three benches,
where people went to sit and while
away a little time. Today, camping
and park recreation is a big busi-
ness and will mean as much to this
area economically, as any other
source now available."
Adams said that the local park
had more to offer than any other
state park because of its long beach
front. He said the state will move
forward as rapidly as possible for
development of parks such as the
local facility in view of the nation.

In matters pertaining to the new
proposed state constitution, Adams

out several activities now interpret.

Life Ends At Twenty Five?


While the FCC is berating television for its cigarette
commercials, we wish it would look into another aspect of
TV ads aimed not at corrulfting the youth but at demoraliz-
ing the adult. In TV commercials, nothing good happens to
anyone past the age of discretion. Life not only doesn't be-
gin at 40, it ends at 25.
Watch the people in these ads for a while. Teen-agers
invariably have great, glistening teeth. Adults have den-
tures and bad breath. Boys switch hair grease and girls
are glad. Men don't have hair. If they do, it is full of
dandruf. Boys douse themselves with shaving lotion and
wait to beat off the women, like traps full of cheese. Older
people go to a nearby movie and have to leave because their
stummick is killing them. Girls have yards of blonde hair,
full of body and boys nuzzle it. Wives have gray hair and
their husbands won't take them dancing. Men work hard
'and get ahead, only to have some pimply assistant tell
them they have bad breath. The teen-age wife makes a
cup of coffee and turns her husband into a sex maniac.

By WESLEY R. RAMSEY


During the past years, we have trained quite a few boys here
at The Star, to do certain chores about the printing office. Some
of them were better than others. all were industrious and didn't
mind the hours or the work. Most have turned into fine young
men. Whether this was due to or in spite of their "printing" ex-
perience, we do not know.
None earned the present minimum wage, until recently .
and this said minimum wage has slowed down the troupe of boys
through The Star's back shop considerable. At least three of the
dozen or so boys who have worked here will follow or are following
the newspaper and printing trades. Shops such as ours are the
breeding grounds for future printers and newspaper men. Inter-
ference by the Government has slowed this flow to a trickle.
One of the boys who have "matriculated" through The Star-
the first, in fact-was Walter H. Wilson, who lived with his parents
at the former St. Joe Lumber and Export Company. Walter is
now the Associate Editor and Publisher of the Gilchrist County
Journal. He is doing well. He also writes a good column. But
his column is all too irregular.
Here's a sample of his "Once Over Lightly", which we thought
could serve everyone ...
"These clods who throw out trash on the highways are unfit
creatures, to say the' least.
"But those folks who wait until they get into town to deposit
their garbage on someone's well-kept lawn deserve some sort of
special reward-like having their gall-bladder removed with a
crowbar."
Blood-thirsty wretch, isn't he?
*
We hate to disappoint Principal Allen Scott, but I just don't
have the "pull" with Governor Kirk which he attributes to me. I
checked back, and he hasn't listened to a one of my suggestions
where I have disagreed with him. He still insists upon exercising
his prerogative of being Governor, and "doing it himself!" Bob Ell-
zey says his power is sort of limited too, and I strongly suspect that
M. F. Kershner supported Robert King High, so his influence would
naturally be sort of limited just like the teachers.
But, regardless of the amount of influence we could bring to
bear, I, personally, will not do one thing, until I see spelled out
just what the teachers want. As far as Gulf County goes, it can-
not be the salary. I was one of the chief of those who desired more
pay for our teachers. We have made head-way in that department
-at least here in Gulf County.
I frankly don't know whether I support the teachers or not,
and I have talked with several of them about this, including FEA
!representative Frank Barnes. I don't know what their points of con-
tention are. I try to read the papers daily-four dailies-and I have
yet to see their demands-or desires-in print. I cannot go along
with a blind endorsement from the teachers or the, Governor. I
have not endorsed his stand either, since he hasn't stated it yet. I
will know his plan Tuesday (this is written prior to Tuesday) but
even then I will not have the teacher's side with which to draw a
comparison.
If the teachers want sympathy for their cause, I would suggest
that they outline a plan of the improvements they want and make
them public, so people may have a basis upon which to base sym-
athy for one side or the other.

It's Time To 'Howl!

The Panama Canal was opened in 1914, four hundred
years after Balboa first sighted the Pacific from the heights
of Panama in 1513. It was the Mexican War of 1846 that
first impressed upon this country the urgent need for a
canal. Railroads did not provide coast-to-coast transit. Cor-
nelius Vanderbilt organized a survey of the feasibility of
digging such a canal. In 1872, President Grant reported
that an investigating commission he had appointed had
unanimously recommended Nicaragua as a site for such a
canal. But it was the war with Spain that inspired a pub-
lic clamor for a canal.
For more than half a century the United States-built
and United States-owned Panama Canal has been the life-
line of our national defense and the backbone of our ocean

Shark Notes I
by SHARON DAVIS


As school opened this year, there leave of absence.


was the familiar ring of the old
school bell, the same crowded halls
and many of the same teachers
from the year before. Many stu-
dents were seen renewing old ac-
quaintances and making new ones.
Among the many changes that
have been made this year is the
new split lunch schedule. There is
a ten-minute homeroom period
and a thirty-minute lunch period
during noon.

St. Joe High is one of the few
schools in Florida that started
without any vacancies in the fa-
culty this year. Mr. C. Alien
Scott, Principal, says this is due
to an early start in recruiting
them.
*
There are many new teachers on
the faculty this year. They include:
Mr. Gerald Lewter, social studies
and coach; Mr. Steven C. Hand, so-
cial studies; Mr. Joseph D. Bousley,
math; Mr. James P. Kilbourn,
science and health; Miss Betty
Jean Patterson, commercial; Mrs.
Mary Jo Patterson, home econom-
ics; Mr. Theodore J. Runkle, math;
Mrs. Mary McLeod Roberts, math;
Mr. Gerald Strobel, science, social
studies and biology; Mr. Walter B.
Trikosko, shop; Mrs. Maxine Gant,
special education and Mrs. Elaine
Runkle, art. Mrs. Billy Jean Guil-
ford returned this year after a


Three majorettes, C a t h y
Boone, Debbie Sykes and Nancy
Richards attended "American
Youth on Parade" -at Ole Miss
in Mississippi this summer. They
studied parade marching and
modeling.
Karla Strobel, the band's drum
majorette, attended the Casavant
Clinic for Drum Majors at Middle
Tennessee State University in Mur-
freesboro, Tennessee. She studied
precision drill, field conducting,
struting and arm swing. These
summer camps should add much to
our band this year.
The cheerleaders also attend-
ed a one day camp in- Marianna.
They were taught by Mr. Bill
Hearndon from the American
Cheerleader Association. They
feel that this camp will be of
great benefit to them this year.
*
The senior class elected their
top officers for this year. Joe
Hendrix was elected President and
Fred Anderson was elected Vice-
President.
*
All students and faculty mem-
bers are looking forward to a
good year at Port St. Joe High
School as it begins to come into
full swing.

BEFORE RECORDED HISTORY
Several thousand, years before
the European's flag was flown on
St. Joseph Bhy,.it was inhabited by
prehistoric Indians. The natural re-
sources afforded ample food for a


coon and rabbit. Also plentiful
were turkey, duck, sea birds, fish,
turtle, alligator, clams, crabs and
conch. This diet could be supple-
mented in season by wild prim,
blackberry, persimmon and swamp
chestnut.
One of the largest conch sheP
middens in the state of Florida is
located at Richardson's Hammock
near the southern extremity of St.
Joseph Bay. Surface yields of ax-
tYacts indicate Indian occupation
as early as the Depthford period
wlich began in 1,000 B.C. Black';3
Island in St. Joseph Bay and Conch
Island located in the tidal flats of
the bay also yield artifacts com-
parable 'in antiquity to the Richard-
son's' Hammock midden.
THE COMING OF
THE EUROPEAN
.The deep, landlocked waters of
St. Joseph Bay early attract,!e both
the Spanish and the French to se-
cure it. Any port opening on the
Gulf of Mexico "capable of receiv-
ing warships held importance for
Spain. All colonies of the Spanish
empire in the New World except
Buenos Aires sent their riches to
Europe through this Gulf.
After an inspection of St. Joseph
Bay, the Governor of San Carlos
established on the bay a Spanish
outpost as early as 1701. The co-

Peninsula History....


lonial records of Spain again men
tions the post of St. Joseph Bay in
1704.' Apparently due to adverse
living conditions, among these the
lack of fresh water, the Spanish
abandoned the post between 1704
and 1718.
In May 1718, Lemoyne de Cha-
teague, younger brother of Jean
Baptiste Le Moyne, Sieur De Bien-
ville, the French founder of both
New Orleans and Mobile, reported
that he had built a fort on the
mainland just opposite what is now
St: Joseph Point. Bienville, how-
ever, did not think the entrance
to St. Joseph Bay capable of-be-
ing defended due to its extreme
width and'deep water in the en-
tire bay, yet he dared not disobey
orders from the Western Company
in Paris whom he represented.
Bienville pointed out also the lack
of fresh water on the shores of the
bay and the poor soil.
The Jean Beranger map of May,
1718, entitled "Plan De la Baye de
St. Joseph" places "Le fort de
Creve coeur", "the fort of broken
heart", on the mainland directly
opposite "Pointe aux Chevreuil",
"the point of the roebuck or deer",
now known as St. Joseph Point.
The stockaded fort consisted of
Eour bastions and was garrisoned
by a company of 50 men. The Span-
ish were strong in their protest

CAPE SAN BLAS
LIGHTHOUSE
Now in its present third location
due to the constantly eroding shore
the Cape San Blas Lighthouse has
been in almost continuous opera-
tion since 1847. Severe gales and
hurricanes damaged the lighthouse
in 1851, '56, '82 and '94. The light-
house was seriously damaged dur-
ing the War Between the States
by a Confederate raiding party.
The object of the raid. was to ex-
tinguish the light thereby inflict-
ing damage to Union ships and to
protect the vast salt works located
on St. Joseph Bay and the Gulf
Coast. Priorto to the erection of the
lighthouse, the treacherous shoals
of Cape San Blas were called the


June 21, 1965 to August 7, 1965.
Many Spanish artifacts of the 1700-
1720 period were unearthed dur-
ing the excavation.
ST. JOSEPH LIGHTHOUSE
This historic lighthouse was
constructed in the mid 1830's. It is
located just north of the Spanish
*site. Its purpose was to guide sail-
ing,' ships in and out of the busy
port of the city of St. Joseph. The
lighthouse is shown on the Lieuten-

Scout Executive

Speaks to Rotary

Jim Moore, new District Scout
Executive for this area of the Gulf
Sands District appeared before the
Rotary Club last Thursday, more
or less just introducing himself to
the sponsoring club of Scouting in
Pori St. Joe.
Moore emphasized the import-
ance of Scouting in the life of
young men. He said that 33 million
of the 190 million population of
the United States, either are or
have been enrolled in Scouting.
He said that 22% of the boys in
the Lakes Sands District are being
reached by Scouting, and pointed
out a need for an expanded pro-
gram. "We have the boys", he said,
"all we. need are the sponsors and
the adult leaders".
Moore said that although the Ro-
tary Club is doing a fine job with
Scouting in Port St. Joe, there
should be another Troop here with
another sponsor. He asked the help
of Rotarians toward enlisting an-
other sponsor so that Scouting may
provide a more complete program
to Port St. Joe's eligible boys.
Guests of the club were Dunn
Miller, Field Director, Boy Scouts
of America; Jimmy Hentz of Pan-
ama City and Bob Brunner of Port
St. Joe.

F. Willard Vickery, Scout Exec-

we can find responsible leaders,

Hardy Says It's
Time to Plant Pines
Landowners with stands of long-
leaf pines should now make pre-
parations for reproducing their
stands, according to H. A. Hardy,
County Ranger. I
One of the easiest ways of estab-
lishing a good and yearly reproduc-
ing stand is by natural reproduc-
tion-that is by letting the present
stand of trees produce their own
seeds. However, a helping hand
can be given by preparing the area
so that it will be receptive to the
seed requiring two main ma-
jor activities.
First, make sure that there are
enough trees of seed producing
size to provide enough seed. Usu-
ally a good seed tree is a healthy
one some 11 to 15 inches in dia-
meter. Only ten to fifteen such
trees are needed per acre to sup-'
ply enough seed.
Second, make sure there is a
suitable seedbed. If the ground is
covered with a heavy layer of pine
straw or grass, the seed cannot
reach the soil to germinate. There-
fore, this heavy ground cover must
be eliminated and controlled burn-
ing is one of the best and least ex-
pensive means of accomplishing
this task.
When using a controlled burn
for this purpose, the fire must be
kept low so as not to damage the
cones on the trees. The Florida
Forest Service fire control person-
nel have the equipment to prepare
fire lanes and the experience to ad-
vise on the proper time and tech-
niques of burning. A small fee is
charged for plowing the lanes, but
no fee is charged for lending ad-
vice and encouragement.
Now is the time to prepare your
seedbed since October is the month
of falling seed. Contact your local
Florida Forest Service for assist-

This year, they will give par-
ticular attention to reaching
parents in low-income areas.
One of the many valuable
services any PTA provides, Mrs.
Hendryson believes, is "the op.
portunity for parents and teach-
ers to know each other in a social
situation. They are the people
most important in a child's
world, and the child can't help
benefiting from their friendly
collaboration.
"In poor areas, especially,"
she notes, "this friendly relation
between home and school is of
particular value because it's
where children most need help."
,PTA's can work to improve
educational opportunity, to pro-
tect dependent or delinquent
children, to improve health care
and to provide the leadership for
vibrant community programs
that will serve all children, Mrs.
Hendryson points out.

PUBLIC NOTICE
'The City of Port St. Joe will
receive sealed bids at the office of
the City Clerk until Tuesday, Oc-
tober 3, 1967, at 2:00 P.M., E.D.T.,
for the sale and delivery of one
1967 model three-wheel "scooter-
type" vehicle for water meter
reading and repair.
Specifications and other infor-
mation pertaining thereto may be
obtained at the office of the City
Clerk.
Bid shall be based on outright
straight sale, F.O.B. Port St. Joe,
and delivery date should be includ-
ed in bid.
Bids shall be sealed in ah en-
velope and plainly marked 'BID
ON THREE-WHEEL VEHICLE".


Because every child counts
with the PTA, its activities
cover all the varied needs of
children-for kindergartens, ad-
equately financed schools, well-
trained teachers, along with the
proper nourishment, good health
and favorable emotional climate/
in which to 'learn from them.
"We need many members to
cover such wide-ranging pro-
grams," says Mrs. Hendryson.
"So our task this fall is to per-
suade every parent and every
teacher that he too counts, with
the PTA."
As PTA's start their "count,
ins" this fall, Mrs. Hendryson is
urging them to demonstrate that
"PTA is where the action is."
She has suggested, for exam.
ple, that local units take the lead
in sponsoring "cultural happen-
ings" for youngster's. Some
branches of the National PTA,
she notes, have developed art-
mobiles, comparable to the
popular bookmobiles, which
bring traveling exhibits of paint-
ing and sculpture to school chil-
dren in remote areas. Other
PTA's regularly sponsor musical
concerts or provide tickets for
theatrical productions to chil-
dren who would not otherwise
attend them.
"With something as simple as
a folk festival," says the PTA's
national president, "we can do
much to enrich the lives of chil-
dren."


The City reserves the right to re-
ject any or all bids, waive any in-
formalities, and to choose the bid
it deems to best meet the require-
ments of the City.

Both humans and animals reac
It strangely to coming events. I
seems that we have been warne(
time and time again of coming dis
asters, whether it is an earth
quake, the death of a president or
the passing of a loved one.
The subject of ESP has been
laughed off and kicked around by
scientists for years but it persists
in demonstrating its existence.
Numerous people reported a
mental warning prior to the as-
sassination of the late President
Kennedy. A number of cases are
reported of warnings of the San
Francisco earthquake and fire.
Animals seem to sense coming
disaster and there are several re-
ports of strange behavior of ani-
mals, both domesticated and in
zoos, to the Alaskan earthquake.
If our country is making any
effort to learn the truth and un-
derstand the workings of ESP, it
is very "hush-hush". But reports
indicate that Russia is going all
out in this direction.
Why do dogs howl pitifully prior
to or immediately after the death
of a beloved master even though
it occurred thousands of miles
away? Why do birds and wild life
seek refuge and- flee from areas
where earthquakes, floods and
other disasters are soon to occur?
Why do humans sense the passing
of a loved one at the hour of their
death although far away and not
considered in any danger?
How does the salmon find its
way back to its birth location,
fighting its way up stream to
spawn and die? How do dogs and
cats return to a home they knew
and loved over hundreds of miles
of strange and dangerous terri-
tory?
What is the force or power be-
yond our understanding that rea-
ches from the beyond to warn and
guide us when peril or danger
exists?
Why should the countless reports
of such strange and unexplained
occurrence remain taboo? Why
should we not try to learn more
about the human and animal mind
and its relation to life?
Will our knowledge of condi-
tions on the moon or the bottom
of the sea give us more valuable
knowledge than might come from
an understanding of the amazing
power of the human mind?
Must we wait for Russia or
some other country to find the an-


swer?
