This service will be made possible through the efforts of the newly formed Gulf County Com- mittee for Guidance afid Counsell- ing, Inc., with services provided by staff members of the Bay Coun, ty Guidance Clinic of Panama City. Officers of the new corporation are James T. McNeill, president; Rev. Henry Hoyt, vice-president; John P. Howard, secretary and James E. Costin, treasurer. The Board of Directors consists of R.

Mrs. Larry Davis, 1004 Garrison Avenue. :'Miss Barbara Culbreath, 801% 16th Street. Miss Margaret Chambliss, 1505-B Monument Avenue. Mr. and Mrs. Robert E. Brunner, 4127 Hunter Circle. Mr. and Mrs. Walter Robinson, 607 Highway 98, Highland View. Mr. and Mrs. A. W. McDonald, 507 Seventh Street. One hundred fiftr, people of the expected 200 showed up Sunday af- ternoon at three stations, to have their blood typed for filing in Port St. Joe's walking blook bank, ac- cording to Miss Minerva McLane Municipal Hospital administrator. The one-day program, sponsored by the Port St. Joe Jayceettes and the Hospital Medical Staff was de- signed to bring the blood bank, inaugurated some 10 years ago, up to date with records of possible blood donors. Emphasis was placed on securing possible women donors, since most of the present list of donors who have been typed, are industrial workers.who have to be called off the job when blood is needed. The emphasis was-noted, since approxi- mately 90% of those having their blood typed Sunday wpre women. The Municipal Hospital staff op- erated four testing stations Sun- day: one at the Hospital, one at Washington High School, Highland View Elementary School and at the Mexico Beach Methodist Church. The Jayceettes and Medical Staff were assisted in the blood typing operation by Ann Johnson, Kayanna Bateman and Jo Hobbs, members of the Theta Rho girls organization. The girls directed people at the stations, washed slides and assisted in other ways. Error In Report of Automobile Accident In last week's reports of the three accidents occurring .in one day, we had a slight error in one of the accident stories. We interpreted the accident re- port of the Police Department to say that Mrs. Kennington was tra- veling North on Williams and was struck by an auto driven by Joseph D. Brooks, traveling on Fourth Street. We had the occupants of the cars reversed. Brooks was on Williams and Mrs. Kennington failed to heed the Stop sign on Fourth Street. S'cuse, please.

For Water Plant Expansion Mayor Frank Pate announced at the meeting of the Port St. Joe City Commission Tuesday night that the City has been awarded a $38,400.00 grant from the Housing 'and Urban Development group of the U. S. Government for expan- sion of the City's water treatment plant. T ! The grant was made after sev- eral months working with HUD by Commissioner Robert Fox, who is in charge of the Water and Sewer Department of the City. Announcement of the fund grant came to Pate from Congressman Bob Sikes and Senators Spessard Holland and George Smathers. Estimated cost of the project which will include additional fil- tering capacity at the water treatment plant, is :$90,400 to- tal cost. The City's share of the program is $52,000, which is on hand in the present City' budget. The expansion of the water treatment plant will make it cap- able of serving 10,000 people. Mayor Pate announced at the meeting Tuesday night, that it had taken one year to secure the Fed- eral grant. Pate announced that the City would begin taking immediate steps for the final process of com- pleting construction plans already available through the City's con- sulting engineers, Smith & Gilles- pie Engineers, Inc., of Jacksonville. Final plans will be sent to Atlan- ta during the next two weeks for approval by HUD and contractor bids will be called fpr immediately upon approval. Construction will' begin as soon as. possible on, the addition- al filtering capacity so that it will:be in'operation by Spring of 1968 to,1 accommodate the de- mands of summer water usage. / Pate offered the thanks of the Commission to Congressman Sikes and Senators Holland and Smath- ers for their "fine and energetic support that has enabled the reali- zation and completion of a most necessary and important public project that will enhance the growth of this area for many years to come". Pate also complimented Commis- sioner Fox for his efforts in secur- ing the grant. The Mayor pointed out that this was only the first step in a pro- gram which will eventually mean major improvements to the sewer collection and treatment system of the City. City's Insurance Placed With Hannon Agency -After a two week delay, the City in his bid. Inclusion of this item Commission let two bids Tuesday made Tomlinson's bid high. night, one for the purchase of b hoe and end loader and the ot: to purchase the City's insura: needs. The City received several I two weeks ago on the back hoe end loader, but several of the chines didn't meet the specif. tions. As a matter of fact, only 9 machine, the high bidder, met specifications. The City took the item un consideration and found three chines that came near to be what was required. Revised sp fications were sent these th and the results opened. Tuesday Successful bidder was Square Deal Machinery Co., of lando, with a bid of $15,547. INSURANCE BID Two bids were filed with City Clerk for opening Tuesd night for the City's insurance nee during the coming year. Bids were filed by the Tomlin, Agency and Hanson Insuran both of Port St. Joe.. The Hannon Agency was. the s cessful bidder on the insurance package at a total of $10,647.00. Tomlinson was apparently I when the bids were read, but had not entered a bid on one it Which Hannon said was $2,500 St. Joe Motor Co., Showing New Fords It's that time of the year again, and St. Joe Motor Company is showing the new line of Fords and Mercurys this week end for 1968. - Despite the strike against the Company by the United Auto Workers, the local agency has several new 1968 automobiles to show for their model change. Several valuable prizes are be- ing awarded by the Ford Motor Company along with the new mo- del show. The St. Joe Motor Com- pany is giving a $50.00 bond as a door prize. Sharks Downed by Gators, 6 Three intercepted Shark passes' and a sputtering offense spelled defeat by the score of 6 to 0 at the hands of the fired-up Wewahitchka Gators here Friday night., The Sharks, had three passes in- tercepted at crucial times to stall their drives again and again. The Sharks put together only two. drives during the evening, but could get no closer than the 18 yard line before losing the ball on downs. In the first quarter, the Sharks received their first break when a Gator fumbled a Shark punt. The Sharks recovered on the Gator 45 and marched to the 18 early in the second quarter before they lost the ball on downs. * The Gators lone touchdown YARDSTICK Wewa PSJ First Downs ------ Rushing Yardage Passing Yardage Passes Comp. -------- Punts Fumbles Lost --- Yards Penalized 9 4 127 71 71 12 3-9 3-15 3-28 5-25 1 1 25 50 came on a 30 yard pass play in the second period, with only. 3:47 left until half time.

Well, we asked for information and we received it .. from three or four different directions. We wanted to know exactly what the FEA wants from the, people of Florida. We don't say "the Legislature" because the Legislature is only the voice of the people of Florida. So we will refer to the bargaining points between the FEA and the people of Florida. Not the Legislature, the Cabinet, the State or Governor Kirk. , We think the program leans a bit toward generalities and is not quite specific enough, but maybe that can't be helped. At any rate, the program, generalities or not, is in trouble throughout the state. This has come about by too much "demanding" and not enough "asking" or "confer- ence" by the parties of both parts. Both the FEA and Governor Kirk have said things about each other that are too harsh in a situation where both have the same desires. The only differences of opinion, that we can see, is the man- ner in which to go about securing "quality education" for the State of Florida., We say the FEA program faces trouble due to three things. First, the FEA rebuff of Senator Slade's idea of passing ,their program and letting the people decide in elec- tion whether they want to adopt it. Second is a statement made' by Democratic Representative Maddox' of Winter Haven this week in which he said that the FEA was wrong in the way which they are pursuing their desires. The third was a poll taken at a Director's meeting of the Florida newspaper editors two weeks ago in which the editors were almost unanimously behind Governor Kirk's method of go- ing about bringing "quality education" to the State of Florida. We see very little wrong with the teacher's desires and wishes. The only error we can see is their lack of a business-like manner in going about financing and bring- ing the program into being. While the education of our children is "emotional" and desirable, we must still look to the business aspect of bringing the program about. We believe this is the only area in which the FEA and the Governor differ. The Governor is going about this program in the way business operates. Determine the need by proper, pains-taking investigation, determine the amount of money needed and if it is available. Then take proper steps, that will not falter toward achieving the de- sired goals. The FEA members are not business men and cannot be expected to look at this problem from a busi- ness approach. And, the business approach is necessary, since financing is business. We will agree with the FEA that most of their pro- grain is desirable. Some of the demands may be too much for the State to accept. But, with a reasonable at- titude we can absolve these differences. We repeat, with the right attitude by both parties. But ... This is where the specifics come in. We can't, for the life of us see where implementation of this program is go- ing to cost an additional $500 million dollars during the next two years. We think this is what scared off Governor Kirk it scared us off! With $500 million, you could replace virtually every school in the State of Florida with a brand new, adequate, equipped building. We feel Governor Kirk agrees with this program also. He has said as much in his ideas for "quality education". If he didn't feel this way, we would be against him 100%. But, like the Governor, we can't see a $500 million price tag being spent on improvements as worthy as it is. We don't feel this much money is necessary to achieve our needs. The ,-Days of Autumn It always seems that summer has barely started when someone smells "fall in the air". Many people hate to see the leaves begin to burn. But, if they will look around them when fall is in "full bloom", they will find that they are in the midst\of one of the most pleasant seasons of the year. While there is a tang in the air, there is also a new fresh- ness. Crisp mornings and falling leaves tell us winter is coming. We will look to such things as winterizing and tidying up the premises. It is time to think about anti- freeze for the car and getting the heater ready. Autumn begins this year on September 23 Satur- day so those who have been smelling fall in the air will be vindicated on that day. Autumn marks the be- ginning of the challenging and busy days of the fall sea- son. Best of Everything Headline stories have followed a depressing theme of the failures and shortcomings of the U. S. Many good citizens are failing to look for the things that are right with this country as well as the things that are wrong with it. For these people, the remarks of Commissioner Willard Deason of the Interstate Commerce Commission should have special meaning. He lists the many complaints of the "cussers" which range from Vietnam to inadequate high schools and high food prices. , Mr. Deason says, "With all these tales of, doom and gloom, I was mildly surprised to learn of the thousands of scientists, doctors and engineers from other countries who are pouring into the United States each year. This so-called 'brain drain' annually involves as many foreign doctors as 30 medical schools can graduate. Five thousand foreign engineers and scientists come to America 'annually. And nearly 40 per cent of the physicists who received their Ph.D's abroad end up in the U.S.A." He then goes on to remind us that, "Americans are the best fed, best paid, and best educated people in the world," and concludes "That's what's right with America." As Herbert Hoover said on the occasion of his 90th birthday, "The critics say we seem to be in a very, very bad way, and engaged in our decline and fall. Criticism is no doubt good for the soul, but we must beware that it does not upset our confidence in ourselves. So perhaps the time has come for Americans to take stock and to think something good about themselves." In brief, our country is a good land and not the least of its virtues is that we have the inalienable right of cussing the government as loud and long as we please without being penalized, jailed or worse. papers, and a thirty minute lunch I period free from supervisory re- t RTETE L sponsibilities.

INCREASED SALARIES: 'lease: notice that I did not list his item as number one. I did this intentionally, because although, we s teachers like to consider we will be paid for services rendered . t is not foremost in our minds! Teachers do tend to be greedy I admit, however, they are greedy or the children they teach more han for their own pocketbooks. Many use money from their pocket- books to provide materials for their students. They want good books with enough to go around; ade- quate materials; enough desks and chairs, etc.; in a room that doesn't leak and attract dog flies . which fries them in the summer and freezes them in the winter! Like others, I put up with this be- cause I want to be a teacher. All the flowery adjectives I could use to explain why would fail to do so I'm sure. Why do you print a news- paper? Are your monetary profits comparable to the amount of work you do? No, as in my work, even the Governor's salary would not co- ver those many emotions spent worrying over Johnny and Mary. Yes, you're right! In this county we have received a raise. We're extremely thankful and fortunate that we have a school board who realizes they have to offer compe- titive salaries to attract teachers to come here and remain here. So, this is what the teachers want. These items are needed, NOW. I make no apologies for this program, regardless of the cost. And, I feel that deep in the heart of most parents they realize that schools cost money. Education is like everything else YOU GET EXACTLY WHAT,YOU PAY FOR! Sincerely, PEGGY WHITFIELD State law' allows the School Board to levy, without elections, up to 10 mills a year. They have have limits like every other branch of County government. The election is held to levy all over 10 mills, up to an additional 10 mills. Don't apologize for be- ing greedy; aren't we all? We agree with you 100% about the heating conditions at the local schools. They are deplorable. You ask why I publish a news- paper? I really don't know, other than the fact that I like it. It can't be the money since I make less money per hour worked than many school teachers in Gulf County. I guess we're both in the same boat.-ed.) - Dear Wesley: You asked what the Florida teachers want? The Florida teach. ers want a better educational cli- mate-statewide, not just for Gulf County. We realize that the teach. ers salaries have been increased in Gulf County, to a standard living wage, and the teachers are grate. ful to the School Board arid the citizens of, Gulf County for their efforts. I am personally more ap- preciative than anyone, because it is my responsibility to keep Port St. Joe High School staffed with the best teachers I can find. This is not easy when you have to sell your school' community to each teacher in one interview, and keep the salary in the background, as principals in Gulf County Schools have had to do in the years from 1961 through 1966. In 1957-1958, teachers were beg- ging for jobs in Florida and each Florida school system had its pick of the top teacher candidates of the colleges. Florida had some good teachers during those years and some of them are still with us. But, as the State failed to make continued progress in education, many were disillusioned and re- turned to other states, such as Georgia, which started low and worked its school system up to one of the'best in the South. Dur- ing the years 1961 through 1966, Gulf County principals, in most instances, had no choice in the the personnel they hired. They were glad to get a teacher to fill Efaoin Shrdlu By WESLEY R. RAMSEY P Another year has slipped by at The Star. The newspaper is now entering its 31st year of continuous publication. What real- ly made us sit up and take notice at this particular year was the fact that in two more months, we will have published The Star as long as the founder, W. S. Smith. He sold the paper to us on No- vember 10, 1952, after 15 years and two months of ownership. This November will mark our 15th year as publisher and owner. . We would recommend that you obey the highway laws for the next few weeks at least! We understand that Highway Patrol- men Murphy and Hilton, who serve Gulf County have been called on the carpet for the few arrests they have made in Gulf County during the past month. The FHP says that so many automobiles have traveled over Gulf County highways during the past month and statistics show that X number of arrests should have been made. The two patrolmen have made eight arrests during the time period for which they received the chewing out. The patrolmen explained that people in Gulf County were just naturally more law-abiding than anywhere else, which accounted for the low arrest number. The FHP officer didn't buy this. We'll buy it though. We might add our endorsement of the two officers. They do a good job. And perhaps their diligence in their jobs has something to do with their low number of arrests. But, if they want to up their quota to an acceptable standard, they can come to the street across from our house which dead ends at the High School and St. Joseph Bay, at about 1:00 to 2:00 a.m. on Friday and Saturday nights, they can either pick up their quota or keep themselves busy timing the drag, races. This is no criticism of their not tending to duty. Most motorists are off the streets at this hour of the morning in Gulf County, and we would assume the patrolmen are off duty at this time of day. I'll tell you one thing though, when the motors start revving up, and the tires start "digging off", we are awake until the races are over.

Bowling high for the losers, Pate's, were Gail Hinote with a 400 series Only months ago, Governor Kirk promised to make Florida the edu- cational showcase of America. ,Yet every move he has made-with the support of the minority, legislators-has resulted in lower educa- tional standards for our state. H'e has consistently vetoed or rejected every legislative opportunity that would have moved our state upward onx the educational ladder. And Florida remains 34th out of the-50 states in educational expenditures. With the Governor's help, we could be Number 50 in no time. Penny-wise and pound-foolish. The Governor seeks to "hold the line on taxes" and in so doing, he has taken measures which Swill cost the taxpayers more money in the long run. (But that will be the next administration's problem, as far as Governor Kirk is concerned.) Unfortunately, these measures will also seriously affect the state's educational programs during the next two years. And that's our problem. The Governor's vetoes. Governor Kirk has vetoed proposals to provide adequate funds for Florida's 1.4 million school children - thereby putting greater tax pressure on the already overburdened individual counties. Many schools will be forced to suspend certain important school services altogether, while cutting back drastically on others. Here's what you and your children face: e INCREASED COSTS OF SCHOOL LUNCHES IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS e ADDED COSTS FOR SOME SCHOOL SUPPLIES AND TEXTBOOKS OVERCROWDED CLASSROOMS EVEN MORE SO FOR THOSE ALREADY OVERCROWDED MORE DROPOUTS A MAJOR ECONOMIC AND PER- SONAL TRAGEDY CUTBACKS IN THE CRITICALLY NEEDED PROGRAM FOR EXCEPTIONAL CHILDREN (75,000 RETARDED AND HANDICAPPED CHILDREN NEED HELP NOW.) 0 CUTBACKS IN AN ALREADY INADEQUATE KINDER- GARTEN PROGRAM CUTBACKS IN VITAL SCHOOL LIBRARY SERVICES e INCREASED TUITION FEES IN JUNIOR COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES SERIOUS TEACHER SHORTAGES, DUE TO INADE- QUATE SALARY INCENTIVES Can we afford this continuing and accelerating educational de- cline? If you agree that we cannot, that the future of Florida and of Florida's future citizens depends on better education now, please join with the teachers of Florida in the struggle to stamp out this educational blight.

This band stand is one of the best in Florida and the band really appre- ciates it. * Tests and scholarships avail- able to seniors were explained, by Mrs. Katherine Ivey, guidance counselor, in English classes last week.

Wesley Ramsey The Star Publishing Co. SPort St. Joe, Fla. Dear Wesley: Please print this letter as my personal invitation to the people of Gulf County to attend a 10th Anni- versary Celebration at the Florida Sheriff's Boy's Ranch on Sunday, October 1. The Boy's Ranch is located on the Suwannee River, 11 north of Live Oak, and the celebration will start at 12:30 p.m., with a free bar- becue. At 1:30 we will have ceremonies dedicating the newest addition to the Ranch facilities-a $35,000 fire station and automotive repair shop built with funds donated by the Florida State Fireman's Assoc- iation. U. S. Congressman Don Fu- qua, of Altha, a Boy's Ranch Trus- tee, will present the dedication address. The Boy's Ranch is supported en- tirely by public contributions. It was founded in 1957 and has a cur- rent enrollment of 100 needy and worthy boys. It is not a "reform school" or correctional institute- just a good home for good boys who have had some bad breaks in life. In 10 years the Ranch has grown from a "wild idea" to a nationally famous institution and I want the people of this county-especially those who are supporting the Ranch--to see what has been ac- complished.

In addition, another separate card will be de- livered along with the kit which is a reminder to use ZIP Code on return addresses. On this card will be the local ZIP Code. Last year approximately 1,400 addresses were ZIP Coded by the Port St. Joe Post Office as part of a similar program by using only one or two cards with spaces for as many as 13 addresses, Postmas- ter Costin said. Nationally about eight addresses per card were returned during the 1966 project. The unit cost for en- tering the code onto each card will be less than the system used in 1966 because no lookup will be necessary. Every'card in the final post office will need the same code, so an experienced clerk will P be able to stamp it on the card and send the form on its return jour- ney. On an average day, between 175 and 250 million pieces of mail en- ter the postal system. It is not ex-, pected that more than 10 million of the ZIP-A-LIST cards will be in the system at any one time during the peak periods of mailing. Since they will be handled essentially as ordinary postal cards, and there will be no burden or dislocation of service. "The ultimate result will be an improvement in service," Postmas- ter General Lawrence F. O'Brien hae said about the project. "ZIP Code is the base upon which the modern postal service is being, built. But, it won't work and the modernization and efficiencies ZiP Code \fill bring cannot go into ef- fect, until there is more wide- spread usage of the five number code." 'The ZIP-A-LIST project is the most dramatic aspect of our conu tinuing campaign to make ZIP Code readily available to the pub- lic." Last year, approximately 17 per cent of the nation's householders icturned 96 million addresses for coding. The Postmaster Generl reported that many postmasters had informed the Department that the ZIP-A-LIST project was an im- portant aspect in making Christ- mas mailers aware of the import- ance of using the codes on their holiday mail and as an off-shoot encouraged early mailings of their in recent postal history. gifts and cards.

Fewer people are fishing this week on Lakes Jackson at Talla- hassee, and Deer Point Lake at Panama City, for example, but they are catching as many fish, and as big, as at any other time this year. On-the-spot reports are that shellcracker fishing in Deer Point Lake is "excellent". Bass in Lake Jackson (trolling) are "real good", bream "fair". Bass also are hitting fine in Lake Miccouskee, good in St. Marks Refuge on overcast days, fair in Washington County Lakes, good in' Lower Ochlocknee River, and fair in Ocheese Pond and Lake Seminole. Top water lures are best almost everywhere, more especially in Trees Means Bigger Payrolls More Jobs and Expansion of Industry Landowners who convert idle land into tree farming are adding to the development of their com- munity. Trees mean more jobs, bigger payrolls, expanding industry, and a strengthened economy. Trees especially the slash pine in Florida _- release working cap- ital. Trees mean business! County Forester Charles Reeves of Panama City, whose job is help- ing landowners get the maximum dollar return from their timber tracts, says trees in Florida can be likened *to green gold. Reeves said the day is not for distant when Florida forests and related industry will generate two billion dollars per year. Trees, which in many ways must be con- sidered an agricultural crop, are profitable for the landowner. But the benefits of harvested, market- ed, and processed forest raw ma- terial are not confined solely to the individual tree farmer. Entire communities in the Sun- shine State have been uplifted and re-vitalized by the healthy influx of forest dollars. Good forests properly man- aged forests mean watershed protection, !erosion control, anMl increased recreation opportunities. With sound forest management, the aesthetic values of a balanced nature are enhanced and wildlife prospers. Forest lands lIelp control' and regulate water flow.

AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY THIS SPACE CONTRIBUTED BY THE PUBLISHER where good conservation is the rule, the soil retains moisture and stores water. Forests also help Control water movement both on and beneath the surface. Moreover, the forest is a necessary part of nature's system for purifying air as well as water. One-third of the nation is for- est' land yet-as- a section the South stands even better: 40 per cent of 500 million southern acres are forest. Florida is especially favored, with some 60 per cent of its land in forest land. The southern states produce a- bout one-half the nation's total tim- ber growth and some 60 per cent of the total volume of pulpwood. The need for continuing refor- estation is pointed up by figures on the total cut of timber in the U. S., more than four billion cubic feet of timber and pulpwood in a single year. Key to expanding production of forest raw material in the South, and in Florida are the small wood- land tracts under private owner- ships. There are 93,000 such tracts in Florida. Many are barron or at best producing timber at a fraction of the possible rate. By 1985 and no later than 2000 before pines planted this year can reach maturity _- recent estimates are that demand for pulpwood for paper products will double. Secret to the 1.2 billion dollar forest industry in Florida '__ so important in jobs' and payrolls in the forest-geared community -__ is proper management of all wood- land acres. Increasing production is possible only through efficient and contin- uing processes which include planting pines where needed, thin- ning, timber already too thick, se- lective harvesting, and protecting the timber stand from fire, insects and disease. Florida Forest Service nursery- men now have 70,000,000 seedlings mostly slash pine for sale at cost to landowners. Soon these seed- lings will be lifted for delivery to Florida landowners for transplant- ing on idle or understocked land. Call Charles Reeves, your local County Forester, at phone 763- 5456 for detailed information. He will help get your site prepara- tion under way, if it isn't too late for what your land needs, and ad- vise which variety of pine may best be, planted for the quickest and most profitable return. Your forester can also help in the ad- vance ordering of seedlings from a Florida Forest Service nursery. One tree farm can hardly change the economic face of a community.
