Tells Chamber In Annual Report


The largest crowd ever to at-
tend a Port St. Joe-Gulf County
Chamber of Commerce meeting
-167 persons--attended the an-
n' ual dinner and officer installa-
tiofi in the Centennial Building
Thursday night of last week.
R. H. Ellzey succeeded himself
for another term in the office of
president. Treasurer Charles
Brock and secretary Mrs. Jean
Atchison were also installed for
another term. John Robert Smith
was the lone new face in the of-
ficer's corps, being installed as
vice-president.
President Ellzey presented
plaques of appreciation to out-
going directors E. F. Gunn, Ted
Cannon, John Robert Smith, Ed
Ramsey and Ken Cox. Ellzey was
also in the unique position of
presenting himself an out-going
president's plaque.
Ellzey pointed out that 1968
was a good year. He pointed to
continued good employment in
the city and county and cited the
fact" that a local industry, des-
tined to be shut down, was taken
over by a new concern -and is
now operating again full time.
The year of 1968 was also a
year of progress, Ellzey pointed
out, with the new Gulf Court-
house being occupied during the
- year, and construction 'started
on two new high school buildings
in the county.
CHAMPION SPEAKS
Dr. John E. Champion, presi-
dent of' Florida State University
(last Thursday) brought a very
timely and informative address
for the Chamber members.
Champion publicly recognized


the generosity of St. Joe Paper County. He said that already the
Company and Edward Ball for University has more students--
donating the Gulf-froit property 15,000-than was projected for
on which FSU's new Oceonogra-' the year 1972. The school now

Law at the University. p,_ ,,_.i

Champion, for the most part,
made his address a progresss re-
port" to the "many friends
and boosters" of FSU in Gulf


higner educatiuon in Fouiu a s
our Junior College system", he
said. FSU is limited to 2,000 new
freshmen a year, but the upper
classes are able to take care of


the "well qualified students that
come from our junior colleges",
he said.
Champion apologized for the
uinfav6rable' publicity coming
from the university in recent
days. "Don't let that fool you",
he said, "while less than 50 stu-
dents. were receiving this ad-
verse publicity, thousands were
working hard to get a good edu-
cation".

Make Your Dollar Go A Long


Way In Big Week End Sale


Legend has it that George .Washington, the
father of our country, once threw a dollar across:
the Potomoc River. If you have ever seen the
Potomnoc around Washington, you would be con-'
vinced that Washington made a dollar go farther
than anyone has before or Oince. The. Potomoc
River is a far piece from one side to the other. -
Port St. Joe merchants are trying to immu-
late George this' week end, on the occasion of his
birthday, by making a 'dollar go farther than it
usually does-maybe not as 'far as .George did
from his pitcher's mound on the bhnks of the Po-
tomoc-but farther than usual.
The occasion for this dollar saving, is the an-
nual celebration of Washington's birthday by

All of Bay Proposed

For Water Preserve
4f
Al Hargraves and Rudy Pippin
represented Port St. Joe inter-
ests at a hearing conducted by
the Internal Improvement Fund
of the State of Florida in Panama
City last Thursday night propos-
ing the establishment of 29 aqua-
tic preserves, throughout the
State of Florida.
Included in the proposed pre-
serves is all of St. Joseph's Bay
and the Gulf side of St. Joseph's
Peninsula to Cape San Blas.
An aquatic preserve is intend.
ed to 'set aside an exceptional
preserve of coastal water, its un-
derlying bottom and the water
column above for preservation
essentially in its natural or ex-
isting condition by regulating all
activities of m.rt wUIch might
have an effect on h fhniea. ,
It is not quite clear yet, just
how far the regulations will go
in curtailing use of the shore-
line in the preserves.


Mrs. Elder Whitehead
Killed In Accident

Mrs. Elder Rader Whitehead,-
56, of Port St. Joe, was killed
in a car-truck accident Tuesday
morning on State Road 388 north

and around the new high school
buildings now under construc-
tion in Port St. Joe and Wewa-
hitchka.
Although no solution was
found to the problemm of financ-
ing, considerable discussion was
entered into by all members of
the Boards represented..
County Commisison. Chairman
Leo Kennedy waited the Coun-
ty, City and. School Boards to
share equally in- the cost of the
streets. The City -and School.
Board members- rejected, this
idea as a last resort, since nei-
ther Board had this item in their
budget, nor did 'they have the
extra money that would be need-
ed for the project.
The City of Port St. Joe rep-
resentatives suggested re-arrang-
ing the secondary road fund
priorities to get the project in
.this year's letting of projects.
The County Board is due to pre-
sent its list of priorities for this
type paving work in Tallahassee
on March 11. If any changes are
to be made. they would have to
be made at this meeting.
Those present then agreed to
invite District Road, Board Mem-


ber, James Lee, for a conference
to see: what could be arranged
in the& secondary program or
even the primary program to get
the roads built.
The proposed projects include
extending Long Avenue along-
side the school property from
Niles Road to Highway 98- (a
Compromise would be to extend
Long the length of the school
property); construction of Cyp-
ress Avenue from 20th Street to
Niles Road and construction of
a short street in Wewahitchka.

Volunteers Will Visit i


You On Heart Sunday


This week end. local Heart Sunday volunteers will
be visiting their neighbors to distribute heart-saving in-
formatioi and to receive Heart Fund contributions.
In advance of their arrival, you may wish to ponder
the extent which cardiovascular disease is a local prob-
lem. Please consider these facts:
1. Here, as elsewhere in the nation,. the heart and
blood vessel diseases, are responsible for about
54 per cent of all deaths. ...
'2. In our county, like most others, about one peI '
son in nine suffers from some form of hea./
and circulatory disease. r /
3. The economic drain is staggering in terms of
hospitalization costs, medical expenses, physi-
cians' services, lost time and lost taxes.
In short, this is your problem. It is everybody's
problem. It is a problem, that can't be ducked through
indifference or by saying "let George do it."
So welcome your Heart Sunday volunteer with a ..
smile, and a generous donation. Surprise her by coi r
tributing more than the'amount you usually give. In
other words:. Give.. so'more will live! /


Port St. Joe merchants and observed with a
city-wide "Washington's Birthday Sale". The
"birthday present" is for those who shop in Port
St. Joe this week end.
Every year the "Washington's Birthday Sale"
.'gets bigger and more daring-bigger in the num-
ber of merchants participating and more. daring
in that even greater bargains are presented. than
ever before, in any kind of sale. .
Merchants participating in the big sale have
banded together and had their birthday bargains
included in a, tabloid insert, which is included
in The Star this week. Turn to the tabloid now
and get a load of the many savings being offered
especially for you. ,

Expanded Water Plant Operating


Pictured above is the new addition to the
City's water treatment plant. The addition, built
by E. F. Gunn Construction Company of Port St.
Joe, is now in operation and doubles the capa-
city for treatment at the plant. 'The addition was
put on to take care of summer months when the
plant is often taxed to capacity to provide enough
treated water 'for the City's needs. The- treat-
ment- plant is now more than ample to meet the


water demands of Port St. Joe.
The, new addition' is that portion to the right
of the verticle string of small windows shown in
the front of the plant. The coagulation tank seen
at the rear of the building is also new.
Total cost of the addition was $100,700.00
which was paid for by a $37,000 grant from HUD,

Disturbances Have Us Mystified


The disturbances on the campus have us mystified.
Outside jof the special pressure groups, wanting to
take oyer,.operation of the colleges and universities of

lectipg faculty. to teach black students.

tlhe FSU President several'questione on these, matters.
In regards to the. pressure gtiups, one of which rear-

when we have todusa.ds, of serious, hard-working students

Dr. Champion went .on to say that he has made a
study of disturbances*,at pther universities and finds the

much sameness of operation for. it to be coincidence", he

We have always tried to be moderate, but we cannot
p but draw the conclusion that much of the disturbance

segment of our American society in order to mak

seeking to embarras our Government's position of d(

Mr. Robert Finch, the Secretary of Health, Education and Wel-
fare may have turned over a "'Pandora's Box" this past week end
when he chided the Justice Department for "making cased" against
Southern school districts to the point of removing Federal funds
for failure to present HEW with a favorable plan for integration.
Finch said that his department didn't order such measures in-
yvoked and said, in effect, that the orders were given, without his.
knowledge and that "We're going to have to have a greater inter-
face between the two-Justice and HEW-in this whole compliance
area and across the nation".
The 'Secretary of HEW further stated that the Supreme Court
decision has prohibited "deliberate discrimination" but not segre-
gation as such. "If you look at the Supreme Court decision, seg-
regation, in fact, is not prohibited by law What is prohibited is
deliberate discrimination."
Either Mr. Finch or his predecessors since, 1954 have been in
error, since, "separate but equal" facilities have received the mas-
sive cold shoulder for,15 years, with nary a peep from the Supreme
Court 'about being misinterpreted.
If Sre-segregating would be as rough on our nation as integrat-
ing on such short notice has been, we hope Mr. Finch is very pure
of his ground before he makes any more such statements.
', ,. ,
We have noticed lately that the Florida Game and Fresh
Water Fish Commission is holding hearings about the state, getting
ready to set hunting ,and fishing regulations for next year. At
these meetings they discuss things like bag limits, hunting hours,
licenses needed, etc.
We are expecting at the next Federal game conference that'
a season and a limit will be put on U. S. ships. This ought to serve
as a little protection about what ships will be pirated away from
the United States and allow that ships may be taken only in
certain months.
It seems that United States ships are more prevalent,'and
thus more susceptible to the hunter, during the cold months:
witness the taking of the Pueblo by North Korea just over a year
ago in the cold month of December; the piracy of a United States
yacht off the coast of Macao by Red China and the capture of
a United States fishing vessel by .the nonentity of Peru off the
Coast of South America.
We think some sort of regulations are needed. These pirate:
nations are taking everything from a relatively small fishing
vessel to a huge sophisticated electronic behemoth like the Pueb-
lo. It is reassuring that the sport still seems to be to capture
the boats alive.
We don't recall right off whether the_"sports" that captured
these boats observed the classic hunting hours of between sunrise
and sunset but surely this ought to be included in the new regu-
lations.
Something ought to be said about hunting U. S. ships without
a license too.,'

We're going to have to take our crazy cat to a cat psychiatrist.
The blame idiot has gone to eating cheese.
In other ways, our cat is just like every other cat who likes
to lay on top of the TV set with her tail hanging in front of the
screen. She's still crazy about fried chicken and fish. (She is civi-
lized to the point where these delicacies must be cooked.) Frenchie
can cook up a mess of fried chicken or fish and "Lulu" will set up
a howl to get her portion But thisscheese bit .I don't know.
The only thing I can figure is that since she stays in the house all
the time, she figures that the closest she will ever get to eating
a mouse is to eat the "mouse-trap cheese"!

(Austin Scott, Associated Press
.dispatch, Aug. 30, 1966).
Almost immediately after the
July 1964 riots in Harlemn the po-
lidc 'and city officials produced
facts'that showed that'the Com-
munists had played a role in the
creation and continuation of the
riots.
" The FBI assisted the city au-
thorities in an investigation of
the riots and it was found that
for months prior to the riots the
Communists in Harlem had been
conducting a steady campaign
against the police and repeating
the phrase that it was going to
be a "long, hot summer". The
stage was set by protests, meet-
ings, rallies, picketing and har-
rassment of white merchants.
All of the various Communist or-
ganizations were involved in this
action, but the Communist Party
and Labor Party led the pack.
CPUSA leaders participated in
violence-inciting rallies in Har-
lem during the riots. William L.
Patterson, then chairman of the
New York State District Commit-
tee of the Communist Party,,and
Robert Thompson, the former
New York State chairman of the
party, attended a. rally where
identified Communist Jesse Gray
called openly for "guerrilla war-
fare" (New York Times, July 20,
lWf4, p. 16) to stop so-called '"po-
lice brutality". Gray, identified
as a Communist Party member
by another witness, invoked the
_ fifth amendment ;20 times when


The Progressive Labor Party
conducted a more militant cam-
paign to discredit the police and
inflame the people. The Progres-
sive Labor Party might accurate-
ly be termed the American arm
of the Chinese Communist inter-
national. It differs from the
American Communist Party over
the "means" to be used to estab-
lish the same end-Communism.
Just as there is an international
conflict over "theory" between
the Soviet Union and Communist
China, so there is a national con-
flict between the advocates of
the two positions throughout the
world.
The Progressive Labor Party,
in its short history, has built ,a
record of violence. Its members
have been involved in an attempt
to 6arry on, in Monroe, N. C.,
,the concepts of Robert Williams
_ after he fled to 'Cuba. They have
attempted to arm miners in Haz-
ard, Ky., during a strike. Progres-
sive Labor organizedthe t wo stN-
dent trips to 'Cuba in the sum-
mers of 1963 and 1964. Progres-
sive Labor, was responsible for
two riots in New York's Times
Square called to protest the war
In Vietnam. It has also been in-
volved in the "ghetto" riot in
San Francisco, stored firearms in
New York, and developed an "un-
derground" program., The role of
Progressive' Labor in the Harlem
riot is instructive because it
shows exactly how the Commu-
nists operate in a riot situation.

There is a strong likelihood that
at least some of these 50,000 bene-
ficiaries-nobody knows how many
or who they are-live here in Gulf
County.
Also deserving of mention is the
fact that the people of this county
have participated in many Heart
Fund Campaigns, and thus are en-
titled to share the credit for a
health achievement of dramatic
dimensions.
The Heart Fund, which is to be
conducted here and throughout the

It should be noted that the 18.4

NOTES FROM THE

GULF COUNTY

LIBRARY


The following are but a few of
the new books you will find for
your reading enjoyment at the Port
St. Joe Public Library.
NON-FICTION
"The Dark Side of the Market-
place" by Senator Warren G. Mag.
nuson and Jean Carper is an ac-
count of deceptive selling practices
and their pernicious effects on
modern day society. It explores the
need for bold legal reform to pro-
tect the public from goods hazard-
ous to health and life, fraudulent
selling practices and credit abuses.
"The Freezer Cookbook" by
Charlotte Ericlson 'is concerned
primarily with the time-saving as-
pect of owning and using a home
freezer to the fullest advantage. Re-
cipes range from cocktails to
,cakes and an invaluable aspect of
the book is the series of instruc-
tions,used in complex cooking, on
freezing heretofore "unfreezables"
arid on using the freezer as a
source of gourmet foods ready for
serving almost immediately.
"C. S. Lewis: Defender of the
Faith" by Richard B. Cunningham
inquires what it is about Lewis'
faith, his %iew of the world and his
apologetic methods that strikes
such. a responsive chord in the
hearts of unchurched people. It-
also shows how he made the old
ideas of traditional Christianity
"glimmer and glow. with simplicity
and attractiveness."
FICTION
"The Hurricane Years" by Cam-
eron Hawley is a gripping novel
artfully told and a thought-provok-


ing revelation of the strains and
tensions induced by a society that
is driving more and more of us to
become 'runners blindly pursuing
pointless goals-until we suddenly
stumble into. some eye-opening per-
sonal crisis.
"The Green :Gauntlet" by R. F.
Delderfield is a microcosm of the,
English experience from Dunkirk
to the present day, reflected in the
lives of the Craddocks, their rela-
tions, their children ,t-heir tenants.
This is the sequel to Delderfield's
"A HIorseman Riding By".
"Nightclimber" ,by Jon Manchip
White is a suspense story featur-
ing a hero with a compulsion to
climb, not mountains, buildings.
The scene shifts from Pari':to Ve-
nice to. the Aegean Sea and the
Balkan Peninsula. .
In your public library you wll
find books and information -'on
nearly exery subject. However,
should your library or bookmobile
not have the book or material you
request it can be obtained for you
through the Northwest Regional
Library System of which Port St.

Mobile homes have come a long way from
yesterday's cramped, utilitarian trailer.
They're spacious, decorator-styled,
S and all-electric... providing blean'safe,
flameless heating and cooling, cooking
and refrigeration, water heating and
garbage disposer. Therefore they give you
the utmost in-modem easy care, convenennce,
and comfort. That means built-in leisure...
more time to enjoy the beautiful settings,
recreational facilities, and congenial
neighbors of today's mobile htmne parks.

Isn't carefree living the key reason you're

PFC Cleveland Bailey
Earns Silver Star
- Private First Class Cleveland
Bailey, %with the U. S. Army, son
of Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland Bailey
of 239 Avenue "A", Port St. Joe
was awarded the Silver Star Jan-
uary 11. Private Bailey received his
commendation for gallantry in ac-
tion in Vietnam on December 22.
According to the citation, Private
Bailey was positioned in a listen-
ing post outside the perimeter. In
an attack, Bailey remained at-his
post, rather than withdraw to the
perimeter, and directed air and
artillery strikes on the enemy.
The award reads: "His military
mindedness while surrounded by,
enemy forces and in the face of
impending danger contributed im-
measurably to the defeat of the in-
surgents and the success of the
mission".
Bailey serves with' the 4th Bat-
taalion' of the '9th Infantry.

New Dimension for
Women In Air Force
A new dimension has been op-
ened for women in the Air Force,
especially for those young college
graduates who are quick to accept
a challenge. In today's modern Air
Force, according to Claude Cowart,
lpcal Air. Foi'ce recruiter, WAF of-
ficers are working side by side
with their male counterparts in
jobs ranging. from management to
complex astronautical engineering.
But there ismuch much more than
glamour in the Air Force for the
ambitious young woman college
graduate. For example: Women of-
ficers in the Air Force are quickly
given opportunities for profession-
al responsibility, more quickly than
in most walks' of life. They have
equality of opportunity with men
for executive positions. In other
words, women belong in the Air
Force. They play a vital role, not
in secretarial jobs, but as true
leaders and officers with the full
responsibilities of an executive.
Sergeant 'Cowart explained the
WAF officer role further by stat-
ing that through its technical
training programs, the Air Force
trains young college graduates in
numerous technical and non-tech-
nical fields. Each officer is select-
ed for a particular program, de-
pending upon Air Force require-
ments, correlated with the individ-

An artist's view shows where the new "computer room" wJll
be added on to the Glidden-Durkee plait control complex qere Jn
Port St. Joe. Computer operations are being moved here'from th49
Jacksonville plant. '


Glidden-Durkee Firn
Computer Controls t
One of the first applications of
data-processing by O.C.G., on
plant operations, was a tie-in to
Port St. Joe's plant of the Glid-
dbn-Durkee *Division of SCM
Corporation. During a plant
shut-down several years ago the
tie-in of computer-to-tall-oil-re-
fining 'was accomplished through
"transducing".
Numerous points of the opera-'
tion that read flow rates, temper-
atures, pressure, etc., put air
signals from the process into the
plant's central control room in-
struments. Each pneumatic sig-
nal feeding the control panel was
altered, so that it. also fed the
new transducer panel; this pan-
el converts eachof these air sig-
nals to an electronic signal to
ual's educational background, de-I
sires and aptitude. I
Young women who are between'
20% and 29%, who are college gra-
duates and who are interested in
this program, should contact Ser-
gent Cowart, local Air Force re-
cruiter, whose office is located at
Room 206, Post Office in Panama
City. He can furnish all the details
on the necessary prerequisites' that
enable the young college graduate
to embark on a life of adventure
and self-satisfaction as a woman of-
ficer in the United States Air'
Force. Sergeant Cowart can also
be reached by calling Panama City
763-1301.

be transmitted to the compute
machine.
-Sending these' signals (on
"batch" of signals every 40 sec
onds)' via a rented circuit to th(
computer in Jacksonville '
more than 300 miles via sever
transmission terminals .. ha.
been 'difficult for the company. "
MOVING COMPUTER
"ON SITE('
.Decision has now been reached
that the tall oil computations
will be done "on site", and great.
ly improve the system. A room
is'being constructed in the plant,
'connected on one side to the con.
trol room. This new room wiL
house a comptiter, to be deliver-
ed in several weeks. All of the
tall oil program that was done br
the Jacksonville computer, wil'
be done locally, at Port St. Joe.
The transducer panel will tut4
be sending IB signals only 39
feet instead of more than 300
miles. This computer is antici-
pated to be running by mid-1969.
Other advantages to O.C.G. op-
erations with this tall oil data
process installation are:
Removing the program off
the Jacksonville computer will
leave "space" on that instrument
to do more Jacksonville plant
data-processing.
,With the Port St. Joe com-
puter doing tall oil work only,
it can compute the data more of.
ten and in more detail.

Taxes Increase Fast

Federal tax collections in Flor-
ida have increased at a much fast-
er rate than has the personal in-
come of the people of Florida since
1960, the Florida, State Chamber
of Commerce pointed out in its
weekly business review released
this week.
This comparison is made be-
cause the great bulk of these tax-
es are on income. Corporation in-
come taxes are not well defined by
state boundaries and excise taxes
are paid to an unknown degree by
visitors to Florida.
During the fiscal year 1967-68
federal tax collections in Florida'
amounted to $2,986,346,000, a gain
of 117 per cent over 1960 and more
'by 22 per cent than in 1967. The
comparable national increases were
67 per cent and. 4 per cent res-
pectively.
The Florida collections total
last year wasj made up of1 $376,-

Many of today's "wonder drugs" are only adolescents
in the developing would of scientific miracles. The hy-
pertension drugs made their debut with Rauwiloid in
1953. And in 1954, tranquHizers were first released
for public consumption...the same year Jonas Salk
led the way for the dramatic breakthrough in polio con-
trol. In 1962, enzymes were Introduced to accelerate
tissue repair and reduce inflammation. Going back
a little further we find that penicillin... which has
proved so necessary to life... has been in use just 19,
years. It was only 14yea ago that the antihistamines
first appeared on yr Pharmacist's shelves. Bearing
these developments hi mind, the future of prescrip-
tion drugs promIes discoveries inconceivable to the
imagination.

Education Improvement Expense Report

Filed With State by Gulf School System


Gulf County Public School sys-
tem has sent to the State Depart-
ment of Educaltion its mid-year
Education Improvement Expense
Progress report. This document
detailed how the Annual County
Plan for Educational Improve-
ment, which was funded this
year in the amount of $118,815, '.
is being carried out.' .
Staff development, additional
:personnel, facilities, and supplies
are the main divisions of the ap-
proved project and activities
have been carried out in each
area.
A workshop to, update teach-
ers' knowledge in the instruction
of English, involving 52 teach-,
ers, has been completed. Other
activities already carried out un-.
der staff development include a,
Leadership Workshop for admin-
istrators and supervisors, a:
Teacher, Teacher-aide Workshop
and instructional personnel visi-
tations to innovative or exem-
plary programs in other loca-
tlons.


INSURAN CE Too.


Is An Exacting Science Too!


Additional personnel, added
this year to improve instruction-
al services and whose -salaries
,are paid from. ETE funds, are
four classroom teachers; three
physical education teachers and
pine teacher aides. About $16,-
000 has been budgeted in the
County Plan in an effort to elim-
inate most; student' fees and at
the same time provide student.
workbooks, classroom instruc-
tional supplies and art materials
and supplies.
The only facility included in
the plan is a small media-staff,
development center which is lo-
cated adjacent to the jail in the
Gulf County Courthouse Com-"
plex. Cabinets and shelves are
being added to this room, and it
,is being readied for in-service
training' activities.
A check on the expenditures
,shows that, as of January 31,
about half of the ETE funds have
been spent and most of the re-
mainder encumbered.
With much emphasis on staff:
development, components are be-
ing prepared by 'county person-
nel for next years' Annual Coun-
ty Plan. Specifically mandated
by the special session of the 1968
legislature, the ETE, as it is call-'
ed has provided the means for
Gulf County Schools to do some
long-range planning and has giv-
en a much-needed boost to its on-
going programs.
