Washington High Class 'C Runner-Up


The "Wild Bulls" of Howrd of Ocala.charged into the ring. Saturday afternoon only to be. met by "matador" Da-
vid Langston and his able "picadores" Buddy Boyette, John Ford, Charlie Lewis, Larry Morgan, Adrian Gantt and Greg
Knox. The local "bull fighters"' parried, picked and punched away at at pawing "Wild Bull" in Jacksonville's Colliseum
.until they brought the bounding "Bulls" to their knees for the final victory lunge. The prize wasn't a "Bull's" ear, but
the state basketball class 'B' championship. .
S"The Sharks didn't get by-unscathed however, as the."Bulls" badly nicked the Sharks, putting Lewis and Morgat
out of the game for a long period, in foul'trouble. The wounded Sharks, like their -namesake of the sea, reacted -to thei
wounds by fighting harder to overcome their adversary.

from mis-cues, to gain the victory.


That left only David Langston,
and Buddy Boyette of the Sharks
potent defense to combat the big
iHoward aggregation.
Langston won raves over the
state with his antics on the court
which resulted in 38 points and!
some of the fanciest ball-hand-
ling the Collisdum saw from all
four classes-C through AA-for
'the entire tournament.
Langston dribbled the ball
from one side to the other, left
and right handed, behind his
back, through his- legs and pulled
every stop qut to keep the ball'
out of the hands.of the "Bulls'.
The "BubsI" ,.congregated in
numbers under the backboards
but Boyette, Langston and, in
the second half, Lewis. nailed
more than their share. Langston
picked up 22 rebounds to lead
'bo1Th team.

The Sharks took advantage of
25 fouls by the "Bulls" to pick
up 27 free throws from 38 at-
tempts. They made 21 of 65 field
goals.
About mid-way in the last
quarter, the Bulls'made their last
serious'bid for the lead (which.
had been close all along) and
came to within two points of the
Sharks. Greg KIox, who had
gone into the game for Morgan,
calmly pushed I two points
through from just beyond the
foul line, and the Sharks just
held on for the rest of the game.
Scoring for the Sharks were:

noon caused slight damage to the
boiler room of the two story
building.
The boiler, located in a lean-

causing a vibration which shook
..the flue loose. Hot gasses and
flames from the broken flue set
, some of the framework of the
boiler shed on fire.
Local firemen quickly put the
fire out before it could cause
extensive damage,

Local Lions Club


Seeks Eye Donors


The Port St. Joe Lions -Club
announced this week that' he
Club has joined with the North-
-Florida Eye Bank- for'Restoring
Sight, Inc., of the .J. Hills Mil-
ler Health Center, Gainesville,
which was founded by theLions"
Clubs of Florida and the Univer-
sity of Florida Hospital.
The purpose of the -organiza-
tion is to secure donors who iwill
leave their eyes, at death, for
use in corneal transplants and
other sight-restoring operations
on -the blind.-The program also
provides the corneal transplants
and other eye surgery needed to
*restore sight.
It is estimated that almost ten'
per cent of the blind persons
in the country could receive- vi-
sion immediately,, if there were
just,enough) eyes available for
a modern miracle known as the
corneal transplant.
Glen Williams, local Lions'
Club chairman for the program
said that the list of those wait-
ing for transplants is long, great-
ly exceeding the supply of avail-
able eyes. Williams stated that
a person need not have perfect
eyes to leave them to the Eye


Bank. The parts of the eyes used
for the corneal transplant are
not usually affected by the nor-
mal impairments of vision that
make the use of glasses neces-
sary.
"Even those eyes that cannot
be used for transplant, can be
used in the giant research pro-
gram into eye, ailments", Wil-
liams stated.
Wesley R. Ramsey, editor of
The Star, became the first donor
Monday, to sign the permission
slip allowing his eyes to be taken
at death for the eye bank.
The Lions Club -has arranged
for the Municipal Hospital to
have on hand necessary refrig-
erated containers for transport-
ing donor eyes to the Eye Cen-
ter in Gainesville. All three local
doctors, Dr. Wayne Hendrix, Dr.
Joe Hendrix and Dr. Shirley
Simpson are also cooperation'
with the Lions in this program.
The operation for replacing a
cornea, damaged by injury or di-
sease, with tissue from a donated
eye, is the result of a century
and a half of research and exper-
iment. The parent eye bank, The

first donation of eyes to be received by the Lions
in their new program. Looking on at left is Glen

School Having Good Year


It was close, but we're number one!
Port St. Joe's Sharks rose to the occasion in Jackson-
ville Saturday afternoon, against a big, rough, strong team
from Howard. of Ocala, very aptly named the "Wild
Bulls". The Howard team was big, heavy, fast and ag-
.gressive. They probably, knocked the Port St. Joe team
around as much as any team they have met this year, but
determination, training, condition, and surprise play every
once in a while spelled victory for the Sharks.
With the rebounding and shooting of Charlie Lewis
all but snuffed out by foul trouble and the ball handling
abilities of Larry Morgan sitting on the bench with four
fouls' beside his name, it looked like a lost cause for the
'Sharks. But the Shark reserves pulled up some extra
adrenalin from their shoe soles, had just enough effect to
keep the Howard 'Wild Bulls" off balance and allowed
David Langston, Buddy Boyette and John Ford to do part
of "their thing" on the basketball court and pull the game
Iut of what looked like sure defeat.
Buddy Boyette was completely out-manned under
the basket by the big Bufls, but he still snatched some
rebounds and got in some fine shots to balance the Shark
attack in spite of tremiendous odds. John Ford held down


his side of the court well enough to allow big gun D
Langston to play a superb game, drawing attention
every sports writer in the Jacksonville Cdlliseum.
Langston was the big gun, there is no denying
fact. But Langston will be the first to tell you that it
a team effort that whipped the Wild Bulls and bro
home the state basketball trophy for the first time in
tory. Like the Regional victory over Baker,'it was a.
effort that got the job done.
One has but to recall about three months and rer
ber the Sharks taking co-champions in the Gulf Coast
ference with one of the best football records in sei
years. Add to the past two victories the fact that
St. Joe has excellent opportunity to win Conference
ors in baseball this season, and it can't help but make
proud. .
As good as it is to be winners, we believe this t
second place to the cooperation, the pride that is b
evidenced in our kids in their town and thegi school.
should welcome this feeling with open arms.
As long as we can keep this feeling alive in our sc
we'll be number one ... in everything.


We think Washington High School deserves credit for
their showing in the tournament. They deserve credit
for their entire season which saw the Tigers go undefeated
for the entire year, only to meet their first defeat in the
final game of the State Class C tournament.
'Watching the tournament, one could easily see why
they were so successful during the regular season -
they never gave up.
Washington had the slimmest of leads over a good
Greensboro team in the waning seconds of the game. Their
big rebounders, James McGee and George Williams, fouled


A Magazine Publishers Association advertisement ap-
pearing in Farm Journal leads off with the observation,
"The Russians have good athletes because they compete
and dull clothes because they don't". The rest of the ad-
vertising message deals with the advantages to consum-
sumers of. the competitive, free choice, free market econ-
omy in the United States-an economy that is in sharp
contrast to ,the noncompetitive, state-directed economy
of the Soviet Union.
We most assuredly do not have to look far to see the
advantages of the competitive U. S.-system of' production
and distribution. Nowhere is this more evident than in
the great retail institutions that during the last century
have become household words--merchandising institutions
that 'have grown and prospered under the spur of com,-
06tioh. These institutions constitute the foundation of
mass-retail distribution in the United States--high volume
movement of goods at minimum prices. This merchandis-

ing philosophy has been largely responsible for our


stantly rising standard of living.
But the successful merchandiser, large or small, chain
or independent, will prosper only so long as he continues
to win public adeptance in the marketplace.' One of the'
.nation's largest retail variety stores, whose name is as
familiar to Americans as the Statue of Liberty, is a far
different operation today than even ten years ago, and it
recently celebrated its 90th Anniversary. Ten' years ago,
it was still operating its chain of variety stores.. Today,
it has also become the world's largest purveyor of food,
prepared and served on the premises, through 2,000 fobd
service installations. It has branched into shoes and
sportswear. Somd 90 of its stores carry everything from
refrigerators, to diamonds and stand for "competitive
prices and high-quality national brand merchandise."
Like the Russian athlete, the U. S. distribution system is
good because it competes.


various programs
What has all this frantic, cost.
ly effort accomplished? Are we
as a nation happier, more con-
tented, more cognizant of our
blessings? Has love 'of country
been advanced? Has pride in ci-
tizenship increased? What have
the vast amounts we have spent
really accomplished in advanc-
ing the welfare of our country
What have these dollars bought
in terms of peace and satisfac-
tion? .
Any sane, thoughtful person
must admit our effort, no matter
how worthwhile its .intent, has
failed miserably. The answer io
clear, We are, less happy, less
content, than at any time in our
history. We enjoy greater, pros-
perity, less unemployment, great-
er opportunity for the individual
than ever before. It is evident
that deficit spending has accom-
plished little in solving our prob-
lems. On the contrary, it has
steadily increased them.
Never have we been 'o un-
happy, so discontented, so fear.
ful of the future as we are to-
day. Our'faith in the old tried
and true values that nade our
country great have'gone.with the
wind. The old courage and fight-
ing spirit, the independence of
the individual, the desire to ad-
yance. by our own. effort, seem
to have disappeared.
Respect and confidence in our
nation throughout the world has
deteriorated. The- value of the
American dollar is questioned, in
spite of the billions we have
' spent i to create international


goodwill.
Parental control of our chil-
dren has broken down. Author-
ity, discipline and personal re-
sponsibility have become, dirty
words. The home, the church and
tHe school have' failed to assert
any control over our youth.
This is not all the fault of
government. The responsibility
rests equally on parents, our ed--.
ucational system and our church-
es. If our' homes are broken if
our adults' display loose morals:
and our churches themselves are
divided, what can we expect? We
have become a nation of liars,
cheaters and crooks. We think
nothing of shop-lifting. We in-
dulge in drunkenness and hate.
'We flaunt the law when it ap-
.plies to 'us, and professing tol-
erance display only intolerance.
Greater, more powerful, na-
tions than ours have gone down
the drain because they did not
see the "Handwriting on the
wall." It can happen to us.

FBI Performs

Host of Tasks

FBI special agent in charge of
the Jacksonville District, Bob Geb-
hardt, spoke to the Rotary Club
last Thursday, outlining some' of
the' duties of the FBI and some of
the misconceptions of their duties.
>avid Gebhardt said that the FBI has
from jurisdiction over 175 matters, but
these do not include narcotics, in-
come tax evasion and many other
that matters commonly considered as
. was their line of work.
ught The FBI is concerned with car
thefts, if the vehicle is transported
his- across the state line. Gebhardt said
team that over 650,000 automobiles were
stolen in the United States last
year. "The majority of those stol-
mem- en were unlocked and had the keys
Con- inside", the speaker said.
veral The FBI enters the case of threa-
Poit tening letters, if they are sent thru
the U. S. mails.
hon- Bank robbery is another crime
one which is investigated by the bu-
reau. Gebhardt said that over 99%
of .the bank robberies are solved.
akes He pointed out that this crime is
Xeing increasing rapidly over the nation
We with a 146% increase reported for
last year.
Kidnapping is another crime in-
;hool vestigated by the FBI. The speaker
said that the bureau waits 24 hours
to see if a kidnapping has actually
taken place befor-e entering in on
a case. "Our primary concern is
the safe return of the victim", the,
speaker said, "then we proceed
with recovery of the ransom mon-
ey and apprehension of the kid-
igers nappers."
re The FBI also spends much of its
Ire- ,lime investigating the background
rhich of individuals who are seeking em-
and ployment in sensitive positions
rang with the U. S. Government. Alqng
with this type of investigation is
gave the search for people who threa-
they ten' the internal security of the
nation, plan or commit acts of' es-
pionage, etc.
btt On a local level, the FBI offers
"be" it laboratory facilities to aid any
'law enforcement agency in the in-,
vestigation of crimes. The bureau'
also ,conducts special classes, for

-Monday, March 17, St. Patrick's Day, marked the 31st anniver-
sary of the big Paper Company which has been the life-blood of
our City ever since it started operations in 1938. We hope the
Company has many, many more birthdays in the years to, come, and
that they will all be happy.
When we realized that St. Patrick's Day was the anniversary
of the mill, like a brick-bat it hit upon our. thick brain that Mr.
Ball, the head of it all, wears a Shamrock on his tie all theiTehe.
We couldn't' help but wonder if the opening of the mill was
regulated by Mr. Ball's affinity for the "green" -or if he wears
the Shamrock because that is the day it all started?
f : *
The-talk of the town is the feat of the Sharks bringing home
the state basketball trophy for first place position. Everywhere
you go, people are talking about the superb way the team played-
and especially of the victory which they didn't quite believe could
be won. "Port St. Joe always chokes up in a tournament", some
said. "We have had good teams enter tournaments before, only
to come apart when the chips were down", others said. Everybody
was proud of the team for making it to state, but very few really
believed they could bring home the whole ball of wax. .
The radio announcer recognized the 200 to 300 Port St. Joe
fans present in Jacksonville for Friday's games. When. we got
there Saturday, we were fearful for the town. We didn't know if
there was enough people at home to hold things down. But when
we got back, it was still here.
The entire Port St. Joe cheering section (which was plentiful)
cheered their hearts out for both 'the Washington Tigers and the t
Port St. Joe.Sharks. Some of the fans were Negro and some were
white, but when the whistles blew, they were all from Port St. Joe.
*
Representative Joe Chapman, speaking to the Lions Club Mon-
day noted that the State of Florida was seeking to make St. Joseph
Bay one of 29 aquatic preserves throughout the'state because the
plan would preserve the natural fish' hatchery in the Soitth end
of the Bay and would perpetuate the esthetic element along St.
Joseph Peninsula where the State Park is located.
Looking at the esthetic values in the Park vicinity, one can
hardly see the need for any preserve, to guarantee preservation of
the shoreline in its natural state. The fact tat so much shoreline
is included in the boundaries: of the Park will guarantee that it
will remain in its natural state. The fact that the Park is there win
maintain that portion of the Bay and the Gulf as it is now.
As for the fish hatchery values in the South, end of the Bay,
people in this area are cognizant of the fact that the fishing indus-.
try adds mTany dollars to our economy. We are not going to will-
fully cutt off that source of revenue. Besides thai, there are now
laws on the book which wil 'sufficiently protect that hatchery.
The remainder of the Bay can and should be exploited by the'
City and County. It is our main asset. Waterfront property and
its wise use is what has made Florida grow. We think that Gulf
County should,not be penalized of the chance to grow by putting
all of our waterfront property off limits to exploitation and wise
use. We still remember the new definition to conservation given
by a, Floridf forester recently, "Conservation is the wise USE of "
our attributes, not putting them on a shelf just to look at."

Your Trees Need Food Too


In spring tiees are like flickled
young ladies both take on an-
nual rings.
But trees are different because
they can't become engaged, quarrel
and .return their rings.
However, trees can become un-
happy and sigh if they can't get
food to sustain their annual growth
rings. So to keep trees engaged in
growing rings, feed them.
Like humans, trees need a hearty
breakfast after a long winter nap.
Feeding trees is simple. Start the
job with'a crowbar or a length of
% inch pipe.
For trees with trunks less than
six inches in diameter, punch holes
under the entire canopy 12 inches
deep at 18-inch intervals and apply
./, three pounds of a garden fertilizer
in the holes. Two applications per
year are- recommended. One now
and another in -the fall.
For frees larger than six inches
'. atunk diameter apply five
pounds per tree.
For azaleas, camellias, crotons,
hibiscus, gardeilus, shrubs, hedges
and other ornamental plants, make
four applications per year. Apply
one to one and one-half pounds of
fertilizer to 100 square feet of
planting per application in late
spring, summer, winter 'and early
spring. The late spring application
i. due now. Water plants, spread
the plant nutrients, and then
water the plant food materials in.
Azaleas and camellias need spec-
ial acid type fertilizer, so'be sure
-to feed them the right formula or
they may become fertilizer sick.
Annuals and perennials need
three applications of ope to one
and one-half pounds of 6-6-6 ferti-
lizer per year for each 100 square
feet of plantings.
Make one application at planting
time and two during the growing
season. Nitrates of soda or other
v sources of nitrogen, are needed in.

Killing Weeds
Controlling weeds with chemi-
cals is easier than dancing the twist
because it takes only one turn.
This is the turn of a spray nozzle.
. Chemical weed control adds a
touch of professionalism to the task
once performed by the hoe. It re-
quires less work and little or no
sweat.
But don't become overconfident
in using the chemicals. This could
spell doom to beautiful ornamen-
tals as well as the undesirable
plants.
Growth regulators such as 2,4-D;
2,4,5-T and MVP, even in very
small amounts, may injury suscep-
tible plants. These materials are
weed killers. But remember, they
cannot distinguish between weeds
and non-weeds.


Do not aply 2,4-D within several
feet of 'sensitive plants such
as most garden plants, flowers and
ornamentals. Cover flowers and
shrubs with paper or plastic be-
fore spraying. Use extreme care to
prevent the chemical from reach-
ing ornamentals through drifting,
leaching into the soil or by run-
ning on the surface during a heavy
shower of rain.
Apply weed killers on a calm day
because wind-blown chemicals can
;njure plants all over the neighbor-
hood.
Even on calm days use low pres-
sure --"20 to 40 pounds per
square inch and nozzles with large
openings that put out coarse sprays
rather than fine mists.-
Before using any chemical -
weed killer, insecticide or fungi-
cide, be sure to read and follow
the instructions on the chemical
container.

Mexico Beach Scouts and Cubs
Conduct Clean-Up Campaign On Beach


Cub Scouts from Mexico Beach
Pack 307 and Scouts from Troop
303 were entertained with a wei-
ner roast at Wayside Park on
Mexico Beach after their day's
work in a clean-up campaign in
compliance with national "Clean-
Up, Paint-Up,. Fix-Up" month.
The Scouts put in a full day's
work along Highway 98 and on
the beaches where they collected
nine loads of litter and hauled
it to the dump. They moved gar-
bage cans away from the high-


way and streets to the back side
of the lots. There were a few
which would require reconstruc-
tion that the Scouts could not
move, but it is the belief that the
owners will have them moved.
Mexico Beach residents gave
a special thanks to leaders
Claude Tate, Wallace Tillery,
Wendell Stockton, and George
Hunter who worked with the
Cubs and Scouts in the clean-up
program.

U. S. Uses More
Than Anyone
There has been more increase in
production capacity for electric
power in the past 10 years than in
the previous 100 years, according
to th6 film, "The Constant Miracle"
viewed by the Kiwanis Club Tuet

day.
Another interesting bit of infor-
mation was that the United States
uses more electric power annually
than any other nation in the world.
Along with this is the fact that the
U. S. has a higher living standard
than any nation in the world. But
in spite of this tremendous increase
,in generation capability, and the
fact, that generation facilities are
expected to be doubled in the next
10 years, it is still not enough.
Today, water power generates
one-fifth of the power for the U.S.
By 1980, over half of our power
will be produced in nuclear reac-
tor plants.
Guests of the club were Rod Fer-
guson of Jacksonville and studentI
guests Jimmy Davis, Tim Griffin,
Kay Holland and Nancy Richards.

Waterway Now

At 125x12 Feet

Work was completed last Wed-
nesday afternoon on dredging op-
erations being performed on the
Gulf County Canal. The Canal
runs Eastward from St. Joseph
Bay connecting the Bay with the
Intracoastal Canal near White
City.
The. half' million dollar dredg-
ing contract made changes in the
Gulf County which made its di-
mensions the same as all water-'
ways shipping arteries. The Gulf
Canal has been 100 feet wide and
niInefeet deep since1 it was dug'
in the late 30's. The dredging op-
erations just completed brings
the Canal dimension's to a 12' foot
depth and .125 foot width; the
same as all U, S. Government op-
erated inland waterways.
Shippers are using larger tugs
and barges which'use 'the inaxi-
mum dimensions of waterways.
This had all but put the Gulf
County Canal out of business in-
sofar as coastal shipping :was'
concerned. .,
Port St. Joe was designated as ,
the outlet port for' the three ri-
vers navigation project several
years ago. Local officials immed-
iatery began work on increasing
the size of the canal to handle' -
any trafficc generated by' the' i
three..rivers system. The work
completed last Wednesday puts
the Gulf Canal in a position to,/
handle any coastal shipping.
Hendry Dredging Company of
Tampa was the contractor on the
project which began last June.
The work was authorized and
paid for by the U. S. Corps of En.
gineers.

Gamble went on-, to say that even

A forest fire is a savage, terrify-
ing thing as it burns out of control.
It destroys everything in its path --,-'
trees, buildings, wildlife, livestock,
and sometimes human beings.
Fortunately, most forest fires are
controlled before they run wild,
but, they sometimes rage out of
control for days or weeks. The job
of, the Florida Forest Service ran-
ger is to stop them. The good ran
ger, and the alert citizen, stop them
before they start. Always remem-
ber that you are helping to protect
a multimillion dollar industry in
the State of Florida.
The forest products industry is
the state's second largest, topped
only by one other industry, and
furnishes jobs and income to many
thousands. of people.

Forest


Notes

by CHARLES REEVES
County Forester


Lumber is Florida's oldest in-
dustry. And forests within the
state are said to :be the only "re-
newable" resource.
As conservation becomes a more
important topic nowadays with in-
creasing dangers in air and water
pollution, the forester finds he has
more than a casual interest.
Healthy forests are a key not
merely to lumber, pulp and paper
production -- but to conservation
and anti-pollution.
The forest and wood products in-
dustry in Florida today ranks se-
cond only to tourism, in annual
dollar value. Actually forest in-
dustry within the Sunshin-e State
is now the largest single industry
converting a natural resource.
While tree farmers in Florida
note a near 200 per cent ine'ease in
dollar return from their trees dur-
ing the past 20 years, it is estimat-
ed the demand for forest raw ma-
terials will again double within the.
next two decades.
With some 4 million cords of tim-
ber now removed from Florida for-
ests annually, reforestation -
planting-of more seedling trees -
must not be relaxed. The 100 mil-
lion new trees planted yearly' in
Florida are but a step toward three
future needs of conservation,
economy, and industry.
Do not take your forest for
granted!

At the beginning .of the ,sec-
ond half, Charles Beechman be-
gan to hit and he nearly shot the
Tigers way into a championship.
- During the first Lhalf it-seemed
that George .Williams was the
only one who could hit consist-
ently. He collected 22 points, but
had to leave the game. Beech-
man collected 18 points and the
shafp-shooting Norris Langston
was hand-cuffed to only 11. Lang-
s. ton was the last regular to
leave the game in the second
overtime period.-
As the game neared an end,
the Tigers had a seven point lead
but were now playing with small
reserves. ,The' Bulldogs would
commit a foul on the reserves,
grab the missed rebound and go
for a goal. In this way they man-
aged to tie the score as the buz-
zer sounded.
The Tigers could have won it
in the last two minutes, but mis-
sed six foul shots and two easy.
layup attempts. The Tigers still
had a four point lead with one
minute left, but two free throws
by GreensborQ's Bryant and a
field goal by Pace tied it up.
With all the regulars on the'
bench shortly after the second
overtime period began, the Bull-
dogs racked up a six point lead,
to take-the game, 87-81.
