The trio was to leave Howard's

delayed the start-of the ride by
an hour. Some doubted they
could make the trip in the al-

they had to kill time along the

It was a rugged ride.
The three riders, fQllowed by
a pick-up truck driven by Charles
Wall carrying the cheerleaders,
a car carrying the rider's wives
and Highway Patrolman Ken
Murphy, arrived at the half-way

* The Gulf County Board of
Public Instruction 'was notified
over the week end that the
county school system had been
approved for a grant of $10b,-
671.75 in government funds for,
the current fiscal school year.
The notification was made by
telegram from Senators Spessard
L. Holland and George Srihthers
and Congressman Bob Sikes.
The grant has been approved.
by the U. S. Office of Education
under Title 1. Public Law 89-10,
under the Elementary and Sec-
ondary Education Act of 1965.1
According; o -o16cal school of-
fials, the size of the grant came
as a :surprise. The Gulf County
Board of Public Instruction had
included $72.000 in its current
budget for this item. Upon the
budget being sent to the State
Department of Education in Tal-
lahassee for approval, this item
was trimmed to $62,240.
The reasons for the increase
in funds under this law, after
a cut had been made by the
State are still not known to the
local Board, and .probably will
not be known,for several days
yet.

Shark Cagers Open Season Here Saturday


Saturday marks the opening of
the basketball season for Port
St. Joe's Sharks, according to
head" basketball coach Bill Dix-
on. The Sharks will meet the
Rutherford Rams on their home
court with the varsity game be-
ginning at 8:00 p.m.
The Sharks have customarily
opened their season with Ithe
Altha Wildcats, but 'Altha dIp-
ed Port St. Joe from its sche-
dule because, "that's too far t6
drive just to take a drubbing".
Two other teams, Marianna and
Perry have been dropped from
the Shark schedule at the re-
quest of the other teams. Port
St. Joe adds three tough oppo-
nents to its schedule this year
in Chattahoochee, Leon High
and Rickards, both of Tallahas-
-see.
The Sharks are scheduling five
tournaments in their schedule
this year. The first tournament
play will be in Blountstown dur-
ing the Christmas holidays on
December 26,. 27 and 28. Febru-.
ary 13, 14 and 15, the Conference
Tournament will be held in:
Quincy. February 27. and 28 and,
March 1, the Sharks will enter
the district tournament and- on
March 7 and 8, the regional tour-
nament. On March 14 and 15, the
Sharks have included the state
tournament in their itenerary.
Nothing like confidence!
The Sharks will begin the sea-
son with a seasoned "backbone"


to their squad. /High point pro-
ducers Charlie Lewis -and David
, Langston are back; Lewis for
his third year and Langston for
his second. Guard Johnny Ford
adds experience as he returns
for his second year as a varsity
eager. Other lettermen return-
ing to this year's squad are Larry
Morgan arid Buddy Boyette.
Coach Dixon said that this
year's biggest handicap is the
lack of height. Charlie Lewis is
the tallest man on the squad at
6' 3". Buddy Bdyette is close be-
hind at 6' 2". David Langston is
a "short". 6'1", but proved last
year that, "lack of height" is
no deterrent to making points.
Two other young men, Adrian
Gant and Tim Griffin are an even
six feet.
New members on the varsity
squad this year are Tommy
Knox, Charles Smith, Greg Knox
and Tommy Smith.
The Sharks had a 20 win and
eight loss season: last year and
hope to better their season this
year, even in the face of a tough-
er schedule.

"
THANKSGIVING"


,1V-.E V1 El V"


Someone has defined Thanksgiving as -"our annual
time for saying grabe at the. table of eternal goodness."
Just as some people neglect to say grace before their meals,
so some have forgotten the meaning of thanksgiving.
It is godd to remember that "'think" and "thank" come
from the same root. We need only to think in order to
be thankful. Yet ingratitude is one of the most common
sins of our nime.
The inability to feel and express gratitude shuts off
blessings God would otherwise freely give. As Dwight H.
Small writes:
"How can God lavish His .blessings and power upon
the heart that is so dominated by self as to be incapable of
reciprocating with proper gratitude? Grave indeed is the
sin of ingratitude which withholds the blessing of God
from oneself and from others."
Wlen George Washington issued the first Thanks-
giving Proclamation, he said: "It is the duty of all nations
to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey
His will, to be' grateful for His benefits, and humbly to
'implore His protection." This is a good summary of the
duty of .all nations today.
We. can all be thankful for what we acquire, and thank-
ful for what we experience, and thankful for what we
escape. We can be thankful for what we have,, and thank-

In past months and years, the Panama City News,
-Herald has written some pretty r6ugh stuff abodt Gulf
County partly, our own faMilt We, and others, have let
the News-Herald' know we didn't appreciate it.
Last week, th4 Panama City newspaper wrote a very
complimentary editorial about Gulf County which we think
bears repeating in these columns..

GULF COUNTY LOOKS AHEAD
Neighboring Gulf County is building a school system
that will be the envy of Flbrid& if not the nation.
New high schools are being' constructed at both Port
St. Joe and Wewahitchka that are as modern as tomor-
row and tomorrow is exactly what Gulf officials .had
in mind when they launched their bold new school improve-
ment plan. '
T6t1l cost of thd two school complexes amounts to
something like '$3.2 million, and from what we've seen
Gulf County'will 'be getting its money's worth plus.
The circi]lar-type school complexes embody the latest
in school design and nothing is being spared. In addition
[ to the many other innovations, the new high schools will
have individual offices for each classroom teacher.
Some of the other fine features of the pod-shaped
school complexes will include central air conditioning and '
heating throughout with 'provisions tor closed circuit tele-
oion, 'moveable walls to provide large areas for team
teachingg the latest in 'audio-visual teaching aids and alum-
um window shades that can-' make classrooms totally
lack for showing movies, slides, etc.


"The Rise of Communism In U.S.A."


luriing the 1930s, when condi-
fions in the United States were
Atf a low ebb due to unemploy-
Inent, and war raged in Europe,.,.
the. Communist Party gained"
inany members. Many front or-
ganizations' who carried slogans
as "Against Fascist Aggression"
won supporters. The majority of
these new recruit, many young
knen and women recently out of
School, failed to realize that the
CPUSA was behinA all these
front organizations. Also, the
Communist Party came out with
' slogans which were appealing to
the masses, such' as demands for
"benefits for veterans," "food for

the hungry", "stop Hitler", etc.
-The people were innocent dupes.
They did not realize that Moscow
wag directing the show and that
a foundation was being laid for
future activities of the Commu-
nist Party..
Communism feeds on confu-
sion, discontent and misery.
People, any people, when under
strained circumstances, especial-
. ly financial, will, dike a man
drowning, reach for any straw.
The Slogans were bait, and peo-
ple took 'the bait. The Commu-
nist Party exploited real, manu-
factured and imagined gievances
then, as they are doing today.

ful for the blows which do not come.
But let us not make the mistake of tying our thanks-
giving to material blessings alone.
The annual' fall observance of Thanksgiving did not
begin in the midst of luxury and ease. It began with the
gratitude of a hardy Pilgrim band who had come to hew
out new homes in a wilderness and who lived-fifty of
them-in eleven small houses along a village street;
The basis'of a true spirit of thanksgiving is not mater-
ial at all, but spiritual: It is based on the love and mercy
of God, on the joy of the Lord, on forgiveness pf sins and-
cleanness of heart. It grows out of freedom from corrod-
ing care, and the peace of God which keeps our. hearts and
minds.
No portion of our Bible is more full of expressions of
praise and thanksgiving than the Psalms. Yet these spark-
ling anthems of praise were written by men who suffered
bitter persecution, who risked and at times lost all they
had, who lived in a little kingdom constantly skirting the
edge of disaster, and whose standard of living would make
the poorest or our day seem almost like millionaires in
comparison. Still they offered "the sacrifice of thanks-
giving" from full hearts.
Let us then be thankful and make sure that in approp-
riate ways we say "grace at the table of eternal goodness."
-W. TJ Purkiser


Is Thrown


Both schools were so designed that they can be enlarg-
ed to take care of a much bigger student body than now
enrolled. This future planning is good, sound economics.
Gulf County is meeting its school needs for 'at least 20
years in the future. .
When it became evident that an earlier bond issue
would not' cover the :cost of building the t4o futuristic
high schools, Gulf County taxpayers approved an addi-
tional $1.1 million' bond issue in order to assure their
children the very best in educational physical plants.
This was a wise investment and we congratulate Gulf
County freeholders on their willingness to pay the price
for first-class educational facilities. Also deserving of
the highest. commendation are School Superintendent R.
Mari.n Craig and members of the Gulf County Board of
Public Instruction.' They had' the, foresight, and courage
to propose the additional bond issue and fight for its
passage.
p Gulf County has a.hother public baciitiyof which it
can be just as proud of as' its modeiiiristic school plants.
We, are referring to the beautiful new $1.2 million court-
house at Port St. Joe.
These fine public facilities can bring nothing but pro-
gress tq Gulf County, which is planning and building now
with the future in mind.

We thank you, Mr. Editor, for these. kind words. Gulf
County lis, indeed, thinking of a progressive future. We
may argue 'once in a while about what route to take, but
we think it: speaks well for the County as a whole, that.
it is definitely future and progressive minded.

At that time many Communists

During the 1930s, Laurenti Be-
ria's star was rising as a top. in-
telligence agent .for Russia. His
Communist activities dated back
to the period before the .Rus-,
sian Revolution. He fought in the'
revolution against the Czarist
regime. One of the theories of
Beria, that it wAs better to use
non-Communists in espionage
work rather than Party-.mem-
bers,,was accepted. In 1939 Beria
-was appointed to head the So-
viet Intelligence Service. Soviet
espionage reached a new high.
The U., S.'was a major target.
In October, 1940 the Voorhis
Act became effective. This act
made it mandatory that every
organization engaged in politi-
cal activity, and under foreign
control, had to register with the
U. S. Government. Because the
CPUSA had in their constitution
that the CP was affiliated with
the Communist International,
this definitely indicated foreign
affiliation. To circumvent the
Voprhis Act, the CPUSA called
a special convention and adopt-
ed a new constitution. In the
new constitution it dropped all
references to the Communist In-
ternational and added that "The
Communist Party' of the U.S.A. is.
a working class political party

ditions of Jefferson, Paine, Jack-

Soil Conservation

Assist Farmers

by WILEY C. GARRETT


.


Etaoin


Shrdlu


For more than a quarter of a
century the Soil Conservation Ser-
vice has been assisting the Nation's
farmers plan and apply soil and
water conservation practices. These
practices are protecting the land
upon which both rural and urban
'people depend for food; clothing,
shelter and much of the raw ma-
terials that run our factories.
The applied programs 'of the
Soil Conservation Service have
.ong contained bonus benefits for
individual 'and groups-both rural
and urban, such as increased rec-
reational facilities in soil conser-
vation districts and' small water
shed projects. Less silting in our
streams that are used for fishing,
boating, skiing, swimming, as well
as industrial and municipal water
supplies. .
Still another 'Soil Conservation
Service program containing non-
agricultural benefits is the Nation-
al Cooperative Soil Survey, the ba-
ic tool of our profession. The soil
survey used to guide land use ad-
justments for orderly planning and
application of soil and water con-m
servation on farms, ranches and
watersheds is now paying dividends
for nonagricultural users as well.
Many soil survey interpretations
that aid in establishing soil and
water conservation measures on
the farm can be used equally well
for nonagricultural purposes, such
as locating soils" for housing, sew-
age disposal, industry, highways,
airports, etc. ,
The application of soil and water
conservation measures aid both
rural and urban people by fur-
nishing employment for men and
equipment. Approximately 96,000
pieces of equipment valued at
more than $1 billion use an esti-
mated $41 million worth of fuel,
oil, grease and tires, in installing
soil and water, conservation prac-
tices on the nation's farm and
ranch lands each year.,

IN MEMORIUM
In memory of my dear mother,
Mrs. Susie Walker. Your passing
has grieved us beyond .words. But
we know you were chosen because
God needed another angel. I
know you are happy in heaven
with your loved ones and Jesus.
The sky will be brighter at night
with you shining down upon us so
bright. We miss you, mother, as
well as all your many friends in
Port St. Joe, whom you loved so'
dearly.

riches for you were so very rich.
You had all the riches a woman
could possibly need, knowing your
gracious .kindness to everyone. And
your devotion to your children.
Bless you for loving all of us so
good. Thank you mother for your
loyalty and kindness to us all. Ydu
were always ready when anyone
needed you. It was an omen to
have a mother as you and we thank
God for giving us a mother like
you all those wonderful years,
.So mother, .farewell. You will
linger in our hearts forever and
ever.
A daughter who misses you' so
very much.

I ran into Mark Tomlinson in the post office Saturday morn-
'and and Mark said, "Good morning, Wesley be sure you go to
the Methodist Bazaar today."
"I won't be there", I replied, "but Frenchie is planning to go."
"That's ll right be sure you give her some money before
she goes", he said.
"Give her money! She gives me money", I was forced to reply.
"I figured as much", he said, "but I thought I would make you
feel good this early in the morning by giving youthe benefit of the
doubt".
He's a kind ohe, that Mark.

Sir Bernard Lovell, the Englishman in charge of the Jodrell
Bank Observatory in Merry Old England said this past week 'that
America's proposed manned space' trip to the moon and back was
"dangerous, wasteful and silly'b.
Wasn't it the English who introduced "socialistic government"
to the world? Look who's calling who's actions silly!

And speaking of spending more money than you have (a
grand old American custom) Uncle Charlie DeGaulle is having to
come with outstretched hand to the governments he was trying
to bankrupt last year. And they are coming to his aid. The Weht
Germans have promised aid even after France pulled out of
NATO; Britain has promised aid after France vetoed her inclusion
in the European Common Market and the United States is going
to ante up, even after DeGaulle tried to bankrupt us on the gold
market recently. .


One columnist said recently, that we cannot base our rela-
tions with France on the actions of DeGaulle. He won't last for-
ever and France has, through the years, been one of our best of
friends.
We don't want to see France go broke any more than the
Frenchmen tdo. But we do' hope that our money lasts longer
than does DeGaulle, so that we may come out ahead after all.

An issue 6f the New York Sun, dated July 14, 1835 was brought
to us last week by Calvin Jacobsen, who has many old newspapers
and documents documenting America's .history. Jacobsen present-
ed some of his papers in a historical exhibit at the High School"
lst week.
In this issue of The Sun, we found the following article:
"WHOLESALE EMIGRATION-The Apalachicola (Florida)
Paper of the 15th of June says, that the citizens of that place
have 'all, without, a single exception, resolved to abandon it,
en masse, and remove to 'St. Joseph's,' which as respects its
harbor, local situation and salubrity, is regarded' as a much
more eligible site. They have been induced to take this deci. ,
sive step by what the editor calls the child's play and quibbling
course of the proprietors, who appear to be non-residents. The
harbor of St. Joseph's is described ;to be excellent, and it is
announced that Apalachicola will have to bow to it in silent
submission." .
St. Joseph did, indeed, begin an unprecedented growth during
this year, 1835,. and, captured many of the citizens of Apalachicola.
But the old City died away due to circumstances and Apala-
chicola did not.
For those of you who complain about the amount of advertising
in these days in newspapers, magazines and television, the old New
York News bad about half of its front page reserved for advertis-
ing (something you never see today) and better than three fourths
of the inside pages were advertising. The paper sold for a penny.

It's getting so you can't believe anything any more.
Here we have been accepting all along that Lady Bird John- -
son's real, honest to gosh name was Lady Bird. It was just a
coincidence that she and he had the same LJB. It had to be.
One just doesn't go around changing his wife's name so her ini-
tials will be the same as his. But LBJ didl Here's the shocker:
Lady Bird's real name is Claudia. We found out this little tid-
bit in one of the articles explaining how LBJ made his fortune
while he was "serving the people". He fooled a lot of people
about a lot of things Including Lady Bird's name.

Dr. Joe Hendrix had his bad neck operated on last Monday in
Atlanta. The most recent report is that Dr. Joe will be home for
Thanksgiving and that he is recovering very well.
But Dr. Joe's procrastination in his need for the operation will
,give his patients fuel for denial and resistance for carrying out the'
good Doctor's orders.
I cab hear it now. Dr. Joe will tell one of his patients, "Go
home afd go to bed for a week and take this medicine four times 'f
a day 'every day of that week."
The patient will probably come back with, "But Dr. Joe, when
you had a bad neck and needed an operation you put it ."
"Never mind what I did! You do what I tell you to if you 'I
want to get well!"
Good Doctors are notoriously bad patients. '

Young trees should be set early
during the dormant period so the
roots will become partly establish-
ed before leaf growth starts in the
spring. When this is done, he said
growth will start more vigorously
in the spring than with later plant-
ings.
Sharpe, who is a (professor of
fruit crops at the University, rec-
ommended the following varieties
of pecan trees: Desirable, Curtis.
Elliot and Stuart. He said trees
should be planted in well-drained
soils with at least 36 inches of sand
or sandy-loam at the surface. Trees
growing in shallow soils may. be
damaged by excessive moisture.
Four to five foot trees are prob-
ably the best size to plant. Plant
the young trees no closer than 25
feet from the nearest building and
40 or more feet from the next tree.
Holes 20 to 30 inches in diameter
and 24 to 36 inches deep are neces-
sary for the root systems. Mixtures
of peat and top soil are recom-
mended for better moisture hold-
ing capacity and' root' growth.
Sharpe said the tree must be
pruned back at planting time.. Re-
move approximately one-third of
the top of the tree. Keep the trees
watered and don't allow grass or
weeds to grow around young trees.
No fertilizer should be used at
the time of planting, but the tree
may be fertilized during June with
one, pound of 8-8-8 spread evenly
over the soil six inches from the
trunk outward to a distance of-
three and one-half feet. The sec-
ond year, repeat this process in
February and July, be said.
For. more information on plant-
ing pecan trees, see Circular 280
prepared by the Florida Agricul-
tural Extension Service. For infor-
mation on insect pests and diseases
affecting' these trees, see Experi-
ment Station bulletin ,619A. Both

Over four million cords of pulp- in replanting pine seedlings for

tion.
Shown in the film was an -en-
tirely new concept of planting and
harvesting trees in Florida's for-
.ests which comprise over half of
the land area of the state. The
forests, which are referred to as
"green gold" provide raw mater-
ials for the paper industry, wood,
veneer and crate business and for
the naval stores operations of
which Glidden-Durkee is a part.
Wirth pointed out that Florida's
revenue from trees is second only
to tourism as the greatest single
generator of revenue in the State.
The industry is. now a multi-bil-

of jobs to the state's citizens.
In the film were scenes of new
methods now developed for har-
vesting trees. One machine could
strip a tree of limps, fell it, and
cut into pulp wood length in less
than 40 seconds.
Worth pointed to Glidden as one
of the state's naval stores operators
which generates many new dollars
in the Florida economy each year
since most of their products are
sold outside of the state and na-

Be Sure of

What You Shoot

TALLAHASSEE "If it's not
game don't aim" is the watchword
issued by the Florida Game and
Fresh Water Fish Commission in
an effort to guide hunters to a
proper target and prevent the kill-
ing of protected and exotic birds.
Dr. O. E. Frye, Commission Di-
rector said, "With the opening of
hunting season there will be many
sportsmen in the fields and for-
est and we would remind all hunt-
ers that 6nly game birds and cer-
tain unprotected species may be
legally taken. All other birds are
protected. ,We ask sportsmen to
exercise extreme caution and be
sure their target is properly iden--
tified before pointing their gun."
Frye pointed out that the Com-
mission, in an effort to provide
additional game birds for Florida
sportsmen, had released a number
of exotic game birds at various lo-
!cations in the state. These include
Ithe Royal Duck, the Jungle Fowl
and the Francolin. The season on
these birds has not been opened
and shooting of such would be a
violation.
Frye concluded by sa ying.
"Game birds, on which there is an
open season, include quail, dove,
rail, gallinule, snipe, woodcock,
turkey, duck, geese and coot. All
eagles, hawks, owls, buzzards, wad-
ing birds, shore birds and song
--birds are protected. Unprotected
species are crow, starling and Eng-
lish sparrow.

Each year the drug industry Invests millions of dollars in
research to support the nearly 800 million prescriptions
filled yearly by pharmacists throughout the country. This
investment results in new "wonder drugs" which let us
live our lives longer, healthier. Of the 275 million dollars
invested last year more than 130 million dollars went for
quality control research. Improved precision measuring
and compounding instruments were developed to make
even more certain you receive exactly what your doctor
prescribes. And the investment also went for developing
improved methods of production. As the methods of manu.
factusing improve, the ,price of the bulk drug decreases.
This living is passed on to you in.lower prescription prices.
The "gold pill" of yesterday is purchased today for a nomi-.

Gulf Shows Big

Sales Tax Increase

According to a report from the
office of Comptroller Fred 0.
Dickinson, business is consider-
ably better in Gulf County this
year than at this same time last
year. Dickinson's report is based
on the amount of sales tax col-
lected as compared with last
year's collections.
According to Dickinson's re-
port,'Gulf County paid in $20,-
380.99 in sales tax during the
month of October of last year.
For October of this year, Gulf
paid in $52,901.39 for a 159.57%
increase. During the month of
September, Gulf paid in $37,-
814.58.
Even taking into consideration
the possibility of a heavy pur-
Schase by a local industry during
October, this year, and the in-
crease in the sales tax rate, Sep-
tember's report still reflects
growth.

utes later. There they stopped
for a Coke and talcum powder
break and a short rest period.
Seeing that they were far
ahead of schedule-in spite of
the hour's delay in starting-
another stop was planned along
the way at the Lion's Club tur-'
key shoot at the Gulf Rifle
Range. Gene Raffield won his
thanksgiving turkey at the hoot
and ,then the three set out on
the last leg of their journey.
A large motorcade met the ri-,
ders- at the city limit and escort-
ed them to town, up Reid Ave-
nue and down Monument to the
City Park where an even larger
crowd along with the High
School Band'was waiting to greet
them.
The riders broke the finish
ribbon at 3:10 p.m.
In interviews, Wilder and
Taylor insisted there was noth-
ing to the ride. "An enjoyable
trip", they said. "Not bad at all",
Gene Raffield closed the com-
ments by saying, "We ought to
ride to Panama City next year".
After the ride was over, the
crowd enjoyed a concert by the
band and a large fish fry put on,
by the Kiwanis Club.


The Port St. Joe Sharks closed
out one of their best football
seasons in several years Friday
with their eighth win of the
season against two defeats,' win-
ning over the Blountstown Ti-
gers 32-0. It was a cold night,
but still a largenumber of Shark
fans were. on hand to see the
season's finale.
The win put the Sharks in a
tie with Monticello for the Gulf
Coast Conference championship.
Each team had a 3-1 record in
conference play.
The Sharks were paced by the
running of Mike Burkett and
Donald Capps and the passing of
quarterbacks Ricky Lovett ard
Chuck Roberts in a game which
saw next year's Shark team get
a lot of game experience. Th.
Sharks racked up 254 yards on
the ground and 207 with their'
passing attack'. The Sharks su-
perb defensive squad held the
Tigers to 134 yards on the
ground and 34 in the air.
Burkett scored the first Sharik
touchdown on a five yard run
bout mid-way in the first per-
iod.
The Sharks apparently got
warmed up in the second period
,and unloaded their passing at-
tack. David Langston took a Lo-
vett pass for 37 yards and a TD.
Burkett pushed over from the
,one yard line for the other score,
in the second period.
