County Commission Begins Task of



Outlining New Budget for Next Year


Maiden Voyage

Officials of the Apalachicola Northern Rail-
road climbed in the cab of One of four new loco-
motives just delivered to the railroad for a dem-
onstration ride 'to Chattahoochee on the engine's
maiden voyage Tuesday afternoon.

for New Engines

eral Motors; Purvis Howell, conductor of the train;
Stetson Pridgeon, Master Mechanic; B. Roy Gib-'
son, Vice-President and' George Suber, Superinten-
dent.
The Apalachicola Northern has received de-
livery of four 1,500 horsepower GM diesels to
replace four 20-year-old 1,000 horse engines.


It's budget making time again,
and the County Commission ber
gan work Tuesday morning on
the spending guidelines for-the
new fiscal year which will begin
October 1.
E,6nomy in county spending'
seems to bb th'e theme again this
.year, with very little increase re-
port,ed thus fAr in the working
plans of, the budget. The main
itenmsof expenditures being c6n-.
s.idered'for, the coming year that
were not in -last year's budget
include an item of $5,000 to put
two way radios in the vehicles
driven by the Road Department
Superintendent and the Mosqui-
to Control Superintendent and
put a base station at the County
Road Shop in Wewahitchka.
Other new items of expendi-
ture being proposed include a
5'" salary increase for county
personnel and a $600.00 annual
salary for the Civil Defense.,i-
rector. The CD director has nev-
er received a salary in the past
but has a very time consuming
job, pow being done for free.

in the expenditure guidelines
set out by the State Comptroller.
Last year's original draft levied
too much millage and was struck
down by the Comptroller, who
required the Board to reduce its
village levy, to comply with state
law.
Cortractor Wants Mpney
Contractor'Bill Hunt of Guitin
and Hunl of Pensacola, appeared
before the Board requesting the
final $8,000 payment on construca-
tion of the new Courthouse. Hunt
stated that he had corrected all
items to the satisfaction of the
architect and that he couldn't
be held responsible for failures
of equipment due to lack of pro-
per maintenance.
Commissioner Graham said he
still wasn't satisfied that items
deemed faulty when the county
occupied the building had; been
corrected satisfactorily. He call-
ed special attention to the stains
on the terrazo floor at the court-
house entrance.
THunt said the sub-contractor
was responsible for this, and
that he and the architect both
recommended leaving the floor
like it is. Hunt said that to getI
rid of the stain would mean tak-
ing up the floor, and they felt'
such action would be more harm-
ful than good. He pointed out
that the floor was perfectly
sound with the' only fault being
slight stains around some of the
seams '
The County still hasn't made
the final payment to the contrac-
tor.
Taxes Collected
Tax Collector Harland 0.
Pridgeop reported that all taxes
had either been paid or tax cer-

Police Chief 'H. W. Griffin Doing Well

After Amputation of His Right Leg


Port St Joe's Police Chief,
'H. W. (Buck) Griffin, was report-
ed yesterday to be recovering
well from the amputation of his
right leg Tuesday afternoon.
A report from the hospital in
Pensacola yesterday morning
said that Griffin was still in in-
tensive care and is suffering
some pain. He asked for break-
fast yesterday morning and is re-
ported to be on the road to re-
covery.
Things' moved swiftly for Grif-
fin who entered Baptist Hospital
in Pensacola last week with what
had developed into a persistent
pain in the thigh of his right leg.
Doctors made tests and diagnos-


ed Griffin's ailment as a cancer-
ous tumor in his thigh. The ver-
diet was amputation.
Griffin has served as Port St.
Joe's Police Chief for 25 years
and is. well knbwn throughout
law enforcement circles in this
area.
Locally, he is known and re-
spected for his love of children,
his prowess with an out-door,
cook pot and his ability to main,
tain law and order in the city.
City Clerk Charles Brock re-
ported that the doctors are rea-
sonably sure the operation will
be successful in arresting the
cancer growth in Griffin's leg.

Investment In Present and Future


We're right down to the wire on getting the ball roll--
ing toward building a country club here in Port St. Joe
along with its attendant facilities such as a swimming pool,
18-hole golf course, shuffle board course, playgrounds,'
etc., which could mean as much to the future of Port,St.
Joe as anything that has happened in recent years.
Port St. Joe is, for all practical purposes, an indus-
trial town. Industrial workers are acquiring more and
more leisure time throughout the nation, and vitally need
something to do in this leisure time. A fine golf course
and country club in Port St. 'Joe would serve this need for
the present corps of industrial workers that-live here. It
would also serve the purpose of furnishing recreation, a
place to play and a place of social gatherings for future
industrial workers that might move to our city. This
would put the new country club in the position of being
a magnet to new industry wishing to move in this area.
Phrus the country club would be an attribute to future
growth of our city ... just as much a magnet to industrial
growth as sufficient power, transportation, markets, etc.
But while Port St., Joe is primarily an industrial area'
we are also growing and have prospects of more growth
in the tourist business. So, Port St. Joe is in the enviable
position of having two major drawing cards for growth.
Since tourists' main function is to spend a few days ,or
weeks at play and recreation, the country club fits even
larger into the long range picture of growth potential for


Port St. Joe through its attraction to present outsiders.
Let us not discount the service such a facility could
and would be to the people of Port St. Joe.. The present
population. The city's, population is presently hard-
pressed for entertainment. If you don't go6to the beach,
or surf fish, one doesn't find much to occupy his desire
for recreation in Port St. Joe. Nor do the many recep-
tions, parties, meetings, etc., have the proper place in
which to hold their formal and informal gatherings. The
country club would be a natural to fill, this need.
So, on the surface, what looks like it might be a luxury
item, something we would like to have, but can get along
just as well without, begins to change its complexion.
Port St. Joe -needs the facilities now. Port St. Joe's fu-
Sture can be shaped to a richer hue with a country club and
golf course. So, looking at it from this angle, Port St.
Joe will have a very substantial investment in the future
with a fine, serviceable country club at its disposal.
But, like everything else, a successful country club
venture needs -the .support of the citizens. Our country
club needs your support, your membership. Join today.
Send in your check'to Charles Brock or Bernard Pridgeon
for your membership. It's only $125.00 perhaps the
.best $125.00 you could possibly spend to insure the future
growth and prosperity of ,our city as well as enriching
the present.


We hardly see where Senator William Fullbright and
Teddy Kennedy and George McGovern have a leg to stand
on in opposing President Nixon's ABM proposal..
The three Senators have spent their public life being.
against the United States living up to its commitments --
committments at least two of the gentlemen were in on
the making of. They are now very indignant at the fact'
that the President proposes a system which would be pure-
ly a defensive weapon a most valuable weapon for a
nation that would make a career of turning the other
cheek; a course of-.action that the three. Senators are
championing. ,
Senator Kennedy may have given the ABM a shot,
in the arm recently when he publicly criticized the U. S.
armed forces in its pursuing an objective in the Vietnam
war namely the taking of "Hamburger Hill". Sena-
tor Kennedy almost called it murder of the' American
troops killed in the action. What would he have said,
had he been around at the invasion of Iwo Jima?
But, back to the subject. It is well known around the


world that the United States has never fired the first
shot in ariger. It is also well known that every war this
'nation has ever fought has been for freedom and its preser-
vation. Never has this nation fought a war to extend its
own borders or its philosophy of government. It is not
doing so now. Again this nation is fighting for freedom.
A nation so inclined to let its enemy get the jump on
it, is playing with fire in this age of' nuclear tipped missiles
that can reach our shores and do their dirty work within
a matter of minutes. There will be no "get ready time"
in the future. For this reason we think we need an effec-
,tive ABM system' to preserve pur own .existence. Other
nations in the world have no such compunctions as we
against firing the initial shot. We have too much at stake
to worry about what someone else thinks about our tak-
ing steps in order to protect our future. "I
Should we build an ABM? Certainly. Even though
it will preserve the philosophies of Kennedy, McGovern
'and Fullbright, as well as those who cherish what this
nation has always stood for.

Take Father


Fishing

Boys, who want to give some-
thing extra special for Father's
Day, June 15, should plan now
to take dad fishing.
The "take dad fishing" is a re-
verse of the old theme "take a
boy fishing", but this new twist
can provide pleasure and reap
dividends for both father and
son.
To make a Father's Day fish-
ing trip complete the son should
take the initiative and plan the
trip, get the tackle in order, se-
lect the body of water, anid if
necessary, with mom's assistance,
make, reservation for bait, bait,
motor .and other accommoda-
tions.
According to the Game and
Fresh Water Fish Commission,
proper plans for a fathers' Day
fishing trip should include mak-'
ing sure dad has his fishing li-
cense and writing the Commis-
'sion office at Talahassee, Pan-,
ama City, Lake City, Ocala, Lake-
land or West Palm Beach for a
copy of fishing regulations and
tips on how to catch fresh water
fish.
To help make the trip a suc-
cess don't wait until June 15 to
spring the surprise. Let dad
know in advance as he might.
want to help with the finances,
arrange, his business calendar or
cancel a golf game.
After the trip the son should
be responsible for cleaning the
catch.

THE STAP,'Port St. Joe, Flori~da


Saturday was just one of those days I should\ have stayed at
home. no matter how hard the "fishing bug" was chawing away
at my mind. Everything went wrong. First off, between here and
White City, we lost a fine ice chest, which apparently blew out of
the boat. We turned right around and came back to St. Joe hunting
it, but someone had apparently already come along and picked it
up in the 10 minutes or so it took to retrace our steps. I'll- give
$5.00 to any one who found the chest and returns it to us. It's a
red fibre-glass chest with "Coca-Cola" on the side.
After we got to the river, it was discovered the "0" ring in
my motor gas line was all cankered up and leaking. This made the
motor hard to start and I had to worry -with that thing everytime
we stopped at a new fishing hole. About 10 o'clock, my tongue
was hanging out to my knees from pulling on the crank cord.
On top of all of that, I had to catch four pollywogs and ,an eel.

Early last week, Police Chief Buck Griffin came by the shop
and gave us a mess of string beans, squash and new potatoes out of
his garden. Buck was saying then he was having a "little trouble"
with his leg, and was going to Pensacola to have it checked. He
thought it was maybe something like a varic6se vein. But it was-
n't. By now Buck has had his right leg removed, a victim of can- ,
cer. Buck's plight points out the need for early check-up on any
unusual disorder to the body. He said the leg, had been bothering
him for nearly a year. We're extremely sorry about Buck's los-
ing his leg, but we know that he has the intestinal fortitude to <,
learn tb live without it. He's that kind of guy.
C
We'd like to welcome Rev. Millard Spikes to our city. Rev.
Spikes is the new minister at the First United Methodist Church.
He's taking the place of Rev. 0. M. Sell. While we are very glad to
have Rev. Spikes in our midst, we also hated' to see Rev. Sell move
away. We believe he left much more than he took with him.
*
Sunday is Father's Day, and I know all you fathers will agree
with me that this is a mighty important day more important
even, than Mother's Day. As important as Mothers are, where
would they be if it wasn't for us fathers? Remember\ Pop Sun-
day, for he's a mighty important fellow. (It takes someone with
six kids to think like that, doesn't it?)

Probably one of the most enjoyable programs we have wit-
nessed at the Rotary. Club was presented last'thursday when He-
lene Farris tried to. convince the Rotariais they would be "good
looking" if they would get their hair styled, or even get a wig if
there should happen to be a member or two who.needed such. He-.
lene went on and on about how good men would look, if they would
avail themselves of hair styling, facials, manicures, etc., as the
women did. This may be so, and I would be the last to dispute the
word of an expert like Helene' on the matter of beauty. Maybe I
need something dohe to my eyes, or something, but I have never
seen the man who had the possibilities of pleasing the eye as much. ,
as the ladies from a trip to a beauty salon. I think it's a hopeless
case, myself.

"66" Station


principally a tangle of saw pal-
metto extending over several
acres. The city has given Florida
State permisison to dig up the
old burying ground and the Gulf
County Historical Commission is
sponsoring the dig. If artifacts
of historical interest are found
they will be turned over to the
commission.
The skeletons themselves will
be brought to Tallahassee and
studied and will become part of
\the collection of the Anthropolo-
gy Department for use in teach-
ing and research.
Already, Drs. Smith and Daily
said, about 12 of the unmarked
graves have been located. A
probe made of a car radio an-
tenna with a door knob on the
end has been used to pry into the
sand until the old hexagonal-
shaped coffins have been out-
lined.
The dampness and 'acidity of
the soil six feet underground
probably have preserved the skel-
etons intact, the scientists; say.
Some of, the coffins, built of yel-
low pine, themselves have been
found tobe "eiaird as nails."
None have, been dug up.
'Sxii'ith and Daily think it is
likely that' some corpses were
buried not in coffins but only
with a shroud and that there
were very likely mass burials in
a common grave during Ahe
height of the epidemic. Several
ships in the bay were under quar-
rantine and there were probably
some burials from these.
In another week or so th. ar-
chaeologists will be to fiad out
some of the facts. It is planried
to use earth moving machinery
to "strip-mine" some of the area
until. individual or mass buri i
sites-are spotted.
In addition to eight Florida
Stfat'e students who will be in.the
expedition, the archaeological
crew will include 10 from the
Port St. Joe community ..who
will also be students and will do
the work for graduate credit:.!t;

parts breaks down or a foreign substance attacks, the body
reacts to the blow In a way all its own. Chemicals In the dis-

these are not enough and chemicals from other parts of the
body are utilized. When this happens a chemical Imbalance
is caused. Your-doctor examines you to determine the

essary to add chemicals to your system in order to defeat
