Ini announcing his candidacy, Whitfield stated, "I feel the most important statement I could make at this time is to explain 'why I am running and just why I feel I am qualified. "I would like to be in a position- to assist the other County Com- missioners in seeing that all mon- ey spent is done wisely, with spe- cial attention toward getting value received. It would be my desire to so arrange projects -undertaken by the Commission to see that as many citizens of this county as possible would derive benefits frmin each. "Taxes have become a burden Sto people of this county, and as a commissioner I would feel it my: duty to see that the present taxes are reduced if possible and see that taxes are kept at a minimum. "For a number of years I have been employed by the U. S. Corps of Engineers. I have had experi- ence with labor and supervision .in this Department of Government. I feel that in many ways this exper- ience would be of great assistance to me in handling the affairs of this county and facing the diffi- cult problems that arise. "I am a life-long resident of Gulf County and I feel that I know the people and their needs. If you, the citizens of this county, feel that by electing me County Commis- sioner of District No. 3 I could help make this county a better place in which to reside, I would sincerely appreciate not only your vote on May 7, but your earnest support. Did you ever notice that when a woman criticizes you and you promptly admit she's right, she gets still madder and says you're not serious? Dixie Youth's Annual Barbecue The annual chicken barbecue with proceeds going to the Dixie Youth League, will be held Sat- urdqy, according to Lamar Moore, league president. Servi will begin at 12:00 .Noop this year rather than later n; the afternoon, and continue until 5:30 p.m. At 5:00 p.m. team rosters will be announced for the coming season and trophies will be awarded for last year's achieve- ments.

The barbecue chicken plates will be $1.25 per plate. Tuesday Deadline for Candidates to Qualify New'Process Promises Business Boost For St. Joe Paper Container Division St. Joe Paper Company is a pio- neer in and one of the nation's few producers of a new wax-im- pregnated board, according to Flo'e Brewton, sales: manager of thej 'SJPC Container Division. Brewton revealed the new process to .the Port' St: Joe Rotary Club last Thursday and said that the new process has promises 60 being a boost in business for St. Joe',S 17 container plants. The new process' impregnates hot wax into the fiber and pores of the kraft board made by the paper company, making it virtually wa- ter proof. When the sheets of kraft are laminated into a .box making board, it is again coated with wax to increase the water proofing of the box to be manu- factured. "This gives St. Joe a product to sell to produce packers, chick- en and meat packers, fish,'pack- ers and many other uses where a wet product is packed or ice is used in transportation", Brewton said. These products have been packed in wooden boxes in the past but wood is getting scarce and the wooden boxes high in price, the sales manager, leaving a wide open market for the, new water roof paper boxes. 1 I Brewton said-that the market for containers by the wet packers is almost unbelievable and the paper board product is beginning 'to "catch on". Containers used by Florida produce .and chicken pack- ers, alone, amounts to billions of boxes each year, he said. 'Paper Mill Will 'Resume Operations.Monday At 7 The St. Joe Paper Company mill will resume operations Mon- day morning at 7:00 A.M., ac- cording to information received from the office of Tom S. Colde- wey, vice-president in charge of operations. The mill has been down for a two. week period due to a lack of orders. BIG BASS BITING Francis Kirkland and his daughter, Peggy, hold up two fine bass caught last Wednesday in the Canal near Lake Wimico. The two bass weighed seven pounds and four and three quarters pounds. Mrs. Kirkland actually caught the fish. Francis just went along to run the motor, paddle the boat and hold the fish up for this picture to be made. -Star photo Large Crowd Hears Conner Speak At Annual Chamber Banquet Monday High School Band Makes Ready for A Busy Week End The Port St. Joe High School Band has an unusually heavy sche- dule for the remainder of this week. Tonight, the band is playing a concert in the High School Gymna- sium beginning at 8:00 p.m. Tick- ets are 50c for students' and adults. Saturday, the Band travel's to Tallahassee for the second phase of their contest judging on a re- gional basis.. In: Tallahassee! the, band will present pre-selectedlpie!! ces of music before a group of judges. They are also required to, play music they have never 'see#' or heard before another group of' judges in their sight-reading test. The band has been practicing its. ability to play strange pieces of music since the end of football season, in order to sharpen up their music reading ability. Earlier in the school year the band was judged on its marching abilities, also in Tallahassee. The Tallahassee events are open to the public and bandmaster Hugh Jones asks all that can, attend the testing events to give the band moral support. Player Announces His Candidacy Silas C. Player, Highland View merchant, qualified to run for the office of County Commissioner in District Three this week. Player graduated from Kinard High School in Calhoun County in 1939. He has been a resident of .Gulf County for 27 years. He was employed by the St. Joe Paper Company for nine years. He has owned and operated Player's Sup- er's Super Market in Highland View for 21 years. Player said, "If I am elected, I will do all in my power to make Gulf County a good commissioner". Invitation Extended To Local Historians Invitations were extended March 18 to members of the St. Joseph Historical Society, Gulf' County Historical Commission and Mrs. Ned S. Porter by Governor Claude Kirk to attend the Governor's con- ference on the Development of Florida's Historical Resources in Tallahassee on March 29 in the Student Union Building at Florida State University. Attending from Port St. Joe will be Mrs. Charles Browne, Mrs. R. H. Brinson, Mrs. Fred Maddox and Mrs. Ned Porter. Mayor James Daly will attend from Apalachicola. One hundred twenty-five peo- ,ple were present in the Centen- nial Building Monday night to attend the annual banquet and installation of new officers of ,the !,Port St. Joe-Gulf County Chamber of Commerce. i Retiring president, Silas R. S tore; served as master of cere- i "onies, introducing, the distin- iuished guests present and in- - (rodided the guest speaker, the f Hon'drable Doyle Conner, Com- 'issidner of Agriculture of the iState of. Florida. Conner spoke glowingly of the future of Florida.based on man- ufacturing, tourism and agricul- ture. "Gulf County has all three of these mainstays of our econ- omy" the Secretary said. He pointed out,that Florida's diversi fied economy had served it well in times of recession and would promise a continuedcstrong econ- omy. Conner stated that Florida is attracting more and more indus- try every day industry of' high quality' personnel . clean industry. that is compatible with the state's booming- tourist industry. Conner stressed two main points which are attracting peo- ple and industry to the state- adequate recreation' space and facilities and plenty of fresh wa- ter. He predicted that the Port St. Joe area would become one of ithe major chemical complexes of- the state. He based his pre- diction on the fact, that Gulf County has plenty.of water, a fine deep water portt 'and&' ade- quate recreation facilities of all types. The speaker said that Gulf County and Florida should not take its water: resource for granted however. He predicted that by the year-2000, Fldrida in- dustry would require four times the fresh water now being used. "This calls for close examina-' tion by the area and the state to avoid water and air pollution", he said. Conner is a member of the State's Air and Water Pol- lution Commission. Conner spoke briefly of a new crop being experimented with in Gulf County. In the past year or two large acreages of soy beans have been planted. This crop is in much demand through- out the world and could make Port St. Joe a major "grain port" if it continues to grow in import- ance. NEW OFFICERS Stone introduced the directors for the past year including B. G. Buzzett, Jim Cooper, Jim Cos- tin, Ken Cox, E. F. Gunn, James McDaniell, Ed Ramsey, Ted Can- non and W. C. Roche. Directors retiring from the Board, Ted Cannon, E. F. Gunn Ed Ramsey and Jim Cospin were introduced and presented with certificates of 'appreciation by Stone. The retiring president then introduced the president for the coming year, R. H. Elzey. Ellzey ' then introduced his new officers Charles Brock, treasurer; Mrs. Jean Atchison, secretary; Silas R. Stone, vice-president and di- rectors Frank McDonald and Bob Fox. ElIzey presented a plaque to Stone for his service during the past year. In his address, Ellzey stated that the Chamber during the coming year would be a "mem- ber" chamber rather than a "Board of Directors" chamber. The new president proposed a morning coffee break meeting of members on the first Monday of each month for members to ex- press themselves prior to meet- ings of _the Board of Directors that evening. Ellzey made two requests of those present. "If you're going to be a member, how about sup- porting the Chamber. The Cham- ber needs you and you need it." His second point was, "Don't hang our dirty linen out in pub- lic. Let's keep our image clean. If we have any gripes or com- plaints, let's settle them among ourselves." In his closing remarks, Ell- zey stated, "Support us we are going to be supporting you." Distinguished guests for the affair included Senator and Mrs. Dempsey Barron, Representative and Mrs. Ben C. Williams, Rep- resentative John Robert Middle- mas and Dr. Richard Morley, president of Gulf Coast Junior College.

Faliski and C. Emmett Daniell recently attended an unusual program at the Northwest Regional Library System headquarters in Panama City. The program was "An Eve- ning in Old Pensacola", a slide presentation from the Pensacola Public Library. Slides had been made of ac- tual old photographs and post cards of downtown areas, homes, forts, streetcars, business build- ings, ships, planes, etc., of Pen- pacola before the turn of the cen- tury. Two collections of slides were shown, each consisting of approximately 80 slides and 23 minutes of taped narration. Mr. and Mrs. Hunter Pfeiffer of Pen- sacola presented the program in the multi-purpose room of the Bay County Library. The Gulf County Library Board has voted to sponsor simi- lar slide collections for Port St. Joe and Wewahitchka. Anyone with old photos, post cards, pa- pers, etc., who would like to con- tribute information and help to the historical program should contact the Port St. Joe Public Library or the Wewahitchka Public Library or one of the Gulf County Library Board members: Mrs. Sam Britt, Mrs. F. B. Red- fern, Mrs. W. B. Simmons, Mrs. Robert J. Faliski or C. Emmett Daniell. An organizational meeting for the Gulf County historical pro- grams will be held in the near future according to the Library Board members. They urge in- terested citizens to watch for announcements concerning t'ese projects. Silas R. Stone, resiring president of the Cham- ing president, R. H.

THURSDAY, MARCH 28, 1968 Your Home Deserves Your Support And so begins another year of operation by the Chamber, of Commerce. New officers were installed Monday night; reports were heard on last year's accom- plishments; and the usual "go get 'em messages" were. heard.' This is not to say, "Ho hum, a new year, new officers, so what?" This is to say that.a new year calls for a new start; renewed effort. The new start and the renewed ef- fort must come from everyone of us. We cannot sit idly "by and expect the officers of the Chamber to work won-' ders for our City. The new Chamber officers no doubt have visions of what they wish to accomplish. The last slate had visions 'and they accomplished much. We often hear the attitude: "What has the Chamber done? We can't see a thing they have accomplished". This is probably true if you are not a member and supporter of the'Chamber. We mean that is probably true that you can't see what has been -accomplished!. But if you were a membgr-a working member-you would be a part of the team, and could easily see the immensity of the Chamber's activities every day of the week. We think that the biggest job the Chamber could undertake during the coming year ... and the one which would do the most good for our community .. is to sell 1the community to the people. Salesmen tell us that the trick to selling is to have something to sell. We firmly believe that the Chamber has something to sell our local residents. We. believe-' in this town, and we believe in supporting it. We think that persuading everyone to be- lieve in, and support this community is a worthwhile pro- ject. A few years back we lived in the city of Warner Rob- ins, Geqrgia. The people there were a transient people. We recall one advertiser in the' paper for which we work- ed had a slogan in his page ad every week: "This is my bme, I have no other!" Corn?. Sure, in the purest sense. But isn't it true of you?, Isn't it true of me? I wouldn't think of defacing my home or doing some- thing that would cause it to be scarred or torn down. The- same holds true for my greater home: my home 'town. If the Chamber of Commerce can spend the year 'instilling in everybody that lives in Port St. Joe that this is now ;hme, and we should treat it as such, they will 'have accomplished a great deal. But, as we said before, the officers can't do kit alone. Everyone who considers Port St. Joe "home" will have to become members of the Chamber, and help with the work. The Chamber has a place for everybody. Their lack of accomplishment in the past has only been mea- sured by the lack of support by the citizens of our com- munity. Join the Chamber boost Port St. Joe and see how fast you will come to realize that Port St. Joe is your home and deserves your support.

The spoke word is lest; the printed word remains. CHARACTER IS NECESSARY a Almost everyone looks forward to the day when t society will be so organized that all will be happy, and t free from worry and burdensome responsibility. . Almost everyone looks back occasionally and won- ders whether the easy-going ways of former days did not bring a sense of peace and well-being that is lacking in this modern age. d In short, we look forward and backward, realizing that today's tension is uncomfortable. Can we expect that the day will ever come when life will be easy, quiet and beautiful, and when all will enjoy economic security? Impossible! L. P. Jacks, an English philosopher, says that society is like an individual. The higher the climp, the less se- cure is our position. Jacks believes that character is necessary today more than ever before. The world of tomorrow is not going to offer an easy life, even though it may mean shorter work- ing hours 'and longer vacations. Our obligations will in- crease as our position improves; any failure to do our duty will be quickly followed by an inevitable crash. There is no alternative. Honesty, fairness, and honor are essential. They must be cultivated in the home and in the school. The good things of life do not long remain in the control of those who are unfit to use them. HAPPY 'BIRTHDAY, MR. 'BALL Today, Mr. Edward Ball is 80 years of age. If you were to meet the man, you would say he carries his age well if you knew how old he was. If you did not know, you wouldn't believe that he has 80 years behind him. There's one thing for sure these past 80 years were not idle for Mr. Ball. He has accomplished much. He has been, and still is, a man of action .. a man for getting things done. Besides being a man of action, Mr. Ball is not a man of faint heart. He goes after the task of the day with all his might, and doesn't waver. We admire that in him or any other man. Mr. Ball catches a lot of rhubarbs sent his way. But anybody who does anything receives the same attention. The thing that we think stands rost in his favor, is that he refuses to let the rhubarbs bother him, but we believe he has learned what is rhubarbs and what is true earnest criticism and is guided by this fact. He will not waver in the face of rhubarbs. and we admire this. We noted an article in the Tallahassee Democrat Sunday that stated, "everybody addresses Mr. Ball as Mr. Ball. Nobody calls him Ed". But Mr. Ball returns the 'courtesy and addresses everybody by his proper name. Not many men reach the age of 80, still active. Fewer menr reach the heights reached by Mr. Ball at all. We say again, we admire him,; and wish him many more birthdays and a continued active life ahead. are looking for them today and will buy them if you happen to have what they want. You will recall that grandfather used to wear a watch fob or chain. Try to find one today. Now they are collector's items and in de- mand. Old clocks and watches are in demand. While cuckoo clocks are still available they are not the same as those of an earlier day and those made in the 1700's in Central Europe. Old fashioned button hooks and shoe horns are popular collectors items. Both items were popular as advertising items given customers by shoe stores and general mer- chants. Most of the kitchen utensils you would have found in your grand- mother's kitchen have disappeared in favor of modern day devices such as electric knives, blenders, can openers and the like. While these old items won't bring a lot of money collectors interested in them will pay much more than their original cost. Among items in demand are old fashioned bread boxes, canisters, milk pails, fruit and jelly presses, apple parers, dippers, cookie cutters,. coffee grinders and many other things. Many items familiar to patrons of the old time country general store are becoming hard to find today and often bring good prices on the collectors market. Do you remember the twine or string cages that used to hang about the wrapping desk with string hanging down so it could be conveniently reached by the merchant when he wrapped your package? Replaced today by sealing tape these old gadgets have become collectors items along with numerous other items-water coolers, paper dis- pemigers, scales, merchandise eases and racks, cigar lighters for the convenience of customers, scoops for flour, sugar, meal and other products that came in sacks or bar- rels. In his interesting book Mr. Me- bane shows hundreds of illustra- tions of these earlier day treasures that are now in demand. Many of them, long considered worthless can be picked up for a song and they are to be found everywhere, in attics, cellars, barns, trash bar- rels and so on. Y Joe, Florida Misunderstanding Of License Law Colonel H. N. Kirkman, Director f the Department of Public Safe- y, this week corrected some mis- .nderstanding about Florida's new -river re-examination law by say- ng that no driving test, traffic aw test or medical examination will be required. In response to many inquiries about the law which was passed n the 1967 session of the legisla- ure but does not become effec- ive until 1971 Kirkman said, "Dri- 'ers must pass tests on eyesight, Learning and the ability to read and understand highway signs only." "Even with these limited tests valuable results are expected from discovering and placing under cor- *ective restrictions the drivers with vision and hearing defects," Kirkman said. In Florida deafness is not grounds for rejection. Deaf per- sons are restricted to operating ve- hicles equipped with outside rear- view mirrors. Under the new system, which starts January 1, 1971, it will take four years to re-test the state's drivers. Each driver 'will then be re-examined every four years thereafter. "While this is a limited program in some respects," Kirkman con- cluded, "it will help keep unquali- fied drivers from renewing and holding licenses." State Banks Show "Healthy Gains" Fred 0. (Bud) Dickinson, Jr., Comptroller of Florida, this week said the state's 246 commercial banks and trust companies showed "healthy gains" during 1967 with total assets exceeding $3.6 billion. Statements from the institutions showed assets at $3,605,247,922, for a 12 month increase of more than $555 million. "Florida's banking community continues to show an outstanding solidarity with healthy gains stead- ily expanding the overall economy of the state," Dickinson, who serves as State Banking Commis- sioner, said. Liabilities listed for the state banks and trust companies totaled $3,336,983,924 at the end 'of last year, Dickinson said, while capital accounts totaled $268,263,997. State chartered industrial sav- ings banks dropped from five to six during, the past year. Assets listed for the five banks at the end of last year totaled $31,847,- 818, a decrease of $6,267,041 from 1966 totals. Total liabilities at the five banks were $29,089,731 and capital ac- counts totaled $2,758,086. Social Security Rep. Now In Courthouse Beginning in April the Social Security representative will be at the home demonstration room in the new Gulf County court- house. There is no change in the visit schedule, which is every other Thursday beginning April 4. Any Gulf County resident hav- ing Social Security or Medicare business can see the representa- tive in Port St. Joe or come to the Social Security office in Panama City. As a rule we take the editorializing of Huntley- Brinkley "news" presentations with a grain of salt. We do watch the program, regularly, for its news content, and have been able to sift the news from the editorial with little difficulty. Their attempts to hide editorial under the heading of "news" is ill-disguised. A "news" article the other night (Thursday, I think it was) sort of miffed us, raising our dander and turning our nose and ears red. In reporting the incident where the Dallas County, Alabama Sheriff, who happens to be Negro, arrested two white policemen for allegedly beating up a Negro prisoner. Huntley-Brinkley seemed to think it was beyond belief that a Negro sheriff could arrest two white policemen in the South and get 'away with it. They minced over the fact that the South was "progressing" finally to the point of civilization-living under the law. - But what Huntley-Brinkley and ,others like them fail to realize, nor have they investigated, the South has been law abiding for years. Another thing that might cause H-B to sit up and take notice, is the fact that the nation's only Negro sher- iff is in the South; and we have two of them. We personally resent the implication by H-B that the South can not fairly administer justice. We resent the program's implications that the South fails to .treat the Negro fair. We resent the fact that the implication was that the South would impair anyone from performing his duty, under the law, regardless of his color. But when we consider where Mr. Huntley and Mr. Brinkley live and the way things are conducted there, may- be we can have a mite of understanding for the wonder- ment of Mr. H and Mr. B. Things don't work where they live, like they do in the South. When we have demonstrations in the South, we try to take measures to see that the demonstrators don't break the law by evolving into destructive riots. When crime gets so that innocent people can't walk the streets in Southern cities, we equip the police to cope with the situation at hand. In the South, we believe in protecting the majority of our citizens, who are decent law-abiding citizens. We do not coddle those who would prevent this pursuit of happiness this right of innocent citizens to be pro- tected. We would invite Mr. Huntley and Mr. Brinkldey to visit the South and see for themselves, that we are truly civilized Americans which is more than we can say for parts of New York and Washington. an Office Size SKeyboard-, Pre-Set Tabulator and many other full-size features in the SMITH-CORONA LOW LOW PRICE Quick-set margins ' LOW, LOW PRICE Super-strong Cycolac body SLightweight-a mere 9 pounds $ 56 alf-spacing for error control --THE -STAR- TH CHEVROLET CO.

Tew normally carries an average of 155 but he blasted the pins with a 175, a 194 and a 211 for a scratch series of 580 and a handicap total of 679. It's mighty hard to stop a doubles head. The singles championship went to Clyde Whitehead. That big hook of his was really working as he' blasted the pins for a 626 series. Billy Joe Richards found the pock- et in this match and wound up a close second with 618. Clyde Whitehead put together scores of 618 in the team event, 575 in the doubles and 626 in the singles to give him thi'all-events championship with a score of 1811. Bill Tew's big doubles series put him in second place in the all events with a score of 1727.

Pridgeon Offers Tips to Citizens Tax Collector Harland Pridgeon told the Port St. Joe Kiwanis Club Tuesday that now is the time for property owners to check val- uation placed on their property in the Tax Assessor's office, and de- clare proper values for real and personal property for tax purposes. Pridgeon said this was especially necessary where a person has sold or bought property during the past year, to make sure the proper per- son is charged, for taxes. . Pridgeon pointed out that coun- ty taxes would be delinquent on April 1, after which time a three percent delinquent penalty would be applied to all tax bills unpaid. If the taxes are not paid, they will be offered in a tax sale on June 3. The Tax Collector said new auto tags would go on sale May 1 of this year with the tag purchasing deadline June 30. The new tags will be good for 13 months and prices are the same as last year. Pridgeon's office is mailing out tag registration slips this year, so that car owners may ascertain if they are buying tags for the same car as last year before coming to the tag office. Pridgeon said that the registration mailed out by his office must be brought in to pur- chase a new tag or change owner- ship on an automobile.

By. law, the voter registration books will close in all counties on April 6, Adams said, and they will not reopen until after the May 7 and May 28 primaries are over. "I urge all Floridians who are eligible but not yet registered to vote to make every effort to do so during the coming week," Ad- ams said. "It's your last chance if you want to help select your par- ty's .nominees in the November 5 General Election. "If you don't bother to register and vote, you certainly won't have any grounds for complaining about the direction which our govern- ment takes during the next few years." Adams pointed out that the voter rolls have been completely purged in all 67 counties, and "many voters will find that they are no longer registered if they failed to return their re-registra- tion cards." The Secretary of State, who is Florida's chief elections officer, ex- plained, "The registration purge is required, by law, and re-registra- tion cards were mailed to the last known address of every .voter in Florida. The ne w registration books in each county were made up from those cards which were returned. "If you are in doubt about your voting status," Adams said, I sug- gest you immediately contact your County Supervisor of Elec- tions." Adams estimated that nearly 2,- 500,000 voters will be registered for the 1968 elections. Adams said the forthcoming elections are among the most im- portant in Florida's history. "We'll not only select a new United States Senator, and the membership for our entire State Legislature, but as well we will choose slates to represent Florida with are repealed. SECTION 5.

Campaign,, speeches near it is time for the student were made during activity per, body to choose their leaders for iod yesterday and elections were Gulf County Cancer Unit Preparing to Launth Annual Educational C-amnaian With emphasis centered on can- cer's seven warning signals, the Gulf County Unit of the American Cancer Society is preparing to launch its 1968 educational and fund-raising Crusade'.on March 28. Once again, April has been set aside by Congress as Cancer Con- trol Month and President Johnson is expected shortly to make the period officially Cancer Control Month by proclamation. According. to William J. Rish, Gulf County Crusade .Chairman, the Crusade 4Aill focus attention on the-fact that' f66 many peopleJ are not familiar with just which early signs could indicate cancer. "While ,the public "is, slowly ac- quiring knowledge of the signals," Mr. Rish continued, "surveys show that too many cannot name most of the signals..=A recent study, sponsored by the American Cancer Society, revealed that 69% of those sampled could identify a single warning sign. Yet, in a sim- vi tc J( Champion Washington High Tigers Washington High's North Florida Class "B" basketball champions are shown above. From left to right, in the front row are, Clar- ence Davis, trainer, Charles Beechum, Charles Givens, Noris Langston, Cecil Webb and Coach David Jones. Second row, left to right are James Anthony, Thomas Sims, Willie Smi. ley and George Williams. The Tigers won the championship, which they share with a South Florida team, last week in the state tournament. Coach David Jones Tigers have won six championships since he became coach in 1955. -Star photo ilar survey in 1955 the figure wa: 60%, while a Gallup poll taken ir 1948 showed only 51% could name a correct signal. "A nine percentage point gain in awareness of this vital informa- tion is most welcome, but it is a slow step forward over an 11-year period. That's why the, Cancer So: city is stressing the value of knowing these signals. "The basic, yet simple, warning signals that could mean the pres- ence of cancer serve'as an alert to aid in early diagnosis; when cancer is in its earliest and most 'curable stage," Mr. Rish said. Plans for the all-out April Cru- sade, Mr. Rish explained, include nationwide distribution of 40,000,- 000 leaflets listing the seven warn- ing signals of cancer. Every fam- ily in Gulf County will receive this leaflet, most of them to be distrib- uted in person by Cancer Society volunteer workers during April. The seven warning signals of cancer,, as itemized by Mr. Rish are: 1) Unusual bleeding or dis- charge. 2) A lump or thickening in the breast or elsewhere. .3) A sore that does not heal. 4) Change in bowel or Ibladder habits. 5) Hoarseness or cough. 6) Indiges- tion or difficulty in swallowing. 7) Any change in a wart or mole. Should any of 'these signals last longer than two.'weeks, Mr. Rish urged an early visit to the doctor. Only he can, tell if cancer is pres- ent.. The 1968 April Crusade will beat the slogan,.M. Rish concluded, "It nakes sense to know the seven warning signals of cancer. And it makes sense' to give to the Ameri- can Cancer Society." Donald C.
