But that opportunity came to the people of Port St. Joe this week end, when this'big railroad irane, of St. Joe Pa- per Company, was laid over on its side in the Mill's woodyarl. The story we have is that the crane operator went to pick up a bucket- full of wood from off a railroad car. The bucket hung on the car and the combined weight of the car and the wrood was just more than even this huge crane could handle. Over 'it went. Nobody was hurt just embarrassed.

For- mer State Senator Edward Fra- Sserof-..-Macclenney gave -a very f entertaining 'talk oi "Be Your- self'. Fraser regaled the Rotar- ians by recalling some of his campaign experiences as well as Ssonie of his experiences while serving in the House and Senate. S The speaker used his humor to point out that one gets ahead by being himself and through humility. He also. dwelt for a short time on the necessity of taking an interest in our State Government. Fraser pointed out that Florida's government, made 1up of a wheel with three spokes, had served the state very well and faithfully for 145 years. The three "spokes" are Legislative, Judicial and Executive. , Guests of th e club were Jim Berrett of Jacksonville, Gene Kline of Tallahassee and R. H. Ellzey and W. C. Roche of Port St. Joe. County Board Tentatively 0 K's $1 Million Budget Gulf County's Board of Coun- ty Commissioners tentatively ap- proved its second $1 million bud- get for the county Tuesday at the regular meeting of the Board. The new budget is tentatively set at $1,034,080.00 for the 1970 fiscal year. The current budget is $897,424. Thus, the new bud. get, as now planned, will be P137,000, in round figures, more than the 'current budget. The 'new budget will require less mil!ape than 1-st year q bud- frt Last year, County taxpay- ers paid d levy of 14.11 mills to finance the county operation. As things now stand, the mill levy for the new tax year will be 13.82. Monday, the Board accepted a statement of assessment from Tax Assessor Samuel A. Patrick which reflected a slight increase in property valuations over last year. Patrick's assessment li sted $47,500,407 in taxable property. Patrick's rolls showed a total pro- perty valuation in Gulf County of $61,554,207, the remainder be- ing exempt for various reasons. Of the new budget. Gulf Coun- ty's ad valorem taxpayers will foot the bill for $604,167.00. The remainder will come from other sources. Everything is tentative thus far with a budget hearing scheduled for August 12 at 9:00 a.m. be- fore final adoption of the budget. A Light Agenda Outside of work on the new budget, the agenda was tight at Tuesday's meeting. One item which .was discussed and will affect budgets in the future, was the County's role in the new M dicaid bill passed by the Florida Legislature and sche- duled to begin the -first of next year. Information to the Board is that the Coutity will have to finance 35% of the program with the Federal and State govern- ments financing .the remainder. The Board has -no funds budget- ed for this item in the new fi- nancial program. In other business the Board: Was asked by the Welfare Department to provide money for burial of paupers. The Board Chairman, Leo Kennedy, stated that this practice was dropped when the commodity program was adopted. The Board was informed by the State Road Department that Main Street in North Port St. Joe did not have sufficient right of way for repaving, under new SRD rules and regulations. They also said that obtaining neces- sary right of way would be a major undertaking. The SRD was advised to stop plans on the pro- ject until the County could meet with the City Commission of Port St. Joe. A deposit was accepted from the School Board for paving work around the two new Gulf Coun- ty high schools. The School Board is paying the paving bill with the County doing the work. Approval was given for re- appointment of C. E. Daniell to the Gulf County Library Board. Commissioner Rudy Pippin asked that community identifi- cation signs be installed at Dal- keith along with speed limit signs. This request was referred to the State Department of Transportation. District Cubs Gather 'Here for Track Meet The annual Lake Sands Dis- trict Cub Scout track meet will be held in Port St. Joe Saturday, according to Edward Creamer,' Cub Scoutmaster. The track meet will be held at Centennial Base- ball stadium. The track meet will begin at 2:00 p.m .with Cub Scout Packs' from all over the District parti- cipating. Port St. Joe's Jaycees will op- crate a refreshment booth at the meet. The general public is invited :. to come and watch the young boys try for first prize in the various events. There will be no admission charge. School Board Approves Plans for Two New Rooms . The Gulf County School Board, Tuesday accepted plans for con- struction of two kindergarten classrooms on the site of the present Port St. Joe High School. The plans were prepared by Ar- chitect Norman P. Gross of Pan- ama City. The Board is calling for bids to construct the two classrooms. The classrooms are being built at the High School' site, because that area will house the Port St. Joe Elementary school at the be- ginning of the 1970-71 school year. The rooms will not be rea- dy to begin the Kindergarten program this fall. Temporary classrooms are being arranged for to house the kindergarten classes as the Port St. Joe school for this first year. Furniture Purchased Several bids for furniture for the Wewahitchka High School were let Tuesday. American Seating Company was low bid- der on $4,952.13 worth of fur- nishings; School and Business Supply, Inc., received $7,605.40 worth in the bid letting; South- eastern Seating Company will furnish $459.90 worth of supplies and Business and School Pro- ducts, Inc., was issued a purchase order for $7,099.23 in equipment. The new Wewahitchka School will be ready for occupancy with the Fall term of school. New Teachers Several new teachers have been employed for the new school year throughout the coun- ty. Along with the new hires were several resignations and transfers between schools in the county system. Teachers hired for Port St. Joe High School include: Melvin Moore, science: Miss Linda Ro- zier, English: George Kelly, math; Kenneth Hurlbut, math and Kesley Colbert social, stu- dies. Other new teachers appointed were: Henry Lillius, III, Wash-. ington High; Mrs. Susan Reckna- gel, Highland View; Mrs. Fred- ericka Smith, Washington High; Mrs. Sherry Hurlbut, Highland View; Larry Mathis and Robert Smiley, Wewahitchka. The Board accepted the resig- nations of R. C. Maddox, attend- ance officer, who resigned after 25 years in the Gulf system. Mrs. Katherine Ivey tendered her res- ignation as guidance counselor at Port St. Joe High School. Albert Wynn was transferred from Washington High School to teach manual arts at the Port St. Joe High School. This sedan turned over Thursday afternoon on a rain-slick road on Avenue A. The driver, Roy Simmons, wasn't hurt. None Hurt In Two Automobile Accidents Inside the City During the Past Week Two automobile accidents oc- curred in the City during the past week with one of the wrecks occurring during the July Fourth long week end. Nobody was re- ported to be nijured in either accident. The first accident occurred during a heavy downpour of rain last Thursday afternoon, prior to the holiday week end. Local police report that an auto driven by Roy Simmons, 103 Robbins Ave., skidded on wet pavement and overturned on Avenue A near the Highway 98 intersection. Police say Sim- mons was meeting another car on the street, when a wheel slip- ped off the road. The car start- '.. ed skidding on the wet pavement, and rolled over on its top. The second accident occurred Sunday morning about 9:00 a.m. , when a 1969 sedan owned by Robert Shine of Detroit, Mich., struck the 1966 sedan of John Rainy Brinson. The Brinson auto was parked in the edge of the ' yard of his home at 132 Avenue' D. About $600.00 damages was done to both cars. Free Chest X-Rays Offered In County Mr. and Mrs. Gene Abrams and Mr. and Mrs. Frank Pate of Port St. Joe are welcomed to the 1969 Daytona Medal of Honor Firecracker 400 au- tomobile race by Bill' France, President of NAS- ,CAR and the Daytona 400. . The Abrams and Pates were given the red car- pet treatment at the races, including a ride around the banked track at 80 miles per hour. They also attended the Medal of Honor dinner 'the night of July 4, at which time all holders of the Congressional Medal of Honor were honored. Senator G. Mendel Rivers of South Carolina was the featured speaker. The local 'couples sat at a table with 'sev- eral of this nation's astronauts and came home with plenty of autographs. The dinner was- held at the Desert Inn in Daytona Beach with 750 present. The mobile X-Ray Unit of the' State of Bohrd of Health is now in Gulf County providing a.iree chest X-ray service for any who wish to have a free check-up for respiratory diseases. The free service is being spon- sored jointly by the Florida State Board of Health, the Gulf Coun- ty Health Department and the' West Florida Tuberculosis and Respiratory Disease Association. The X-ray unit will ;travel throughout the County until Saturday, July 19. A schedule of locations and times available for X-ray service are printed below. The chest X-ray program is de- signed to check for tuberculo- sis, lung cancer, enlarged heart, emphysema, chronic bronchitis, and other chest, ailments. The program is sponsored partially by purchases of Christmas seals. The Gulf County Health' De- partment stresses' the fact that there is no embarrassment, charge or discomfort involved in receiving the X-rays. You are not required t6 undress. There is no charge and no pain. Citizens will be notified by mail if their X-ray shows any problems in the lung cavity and will suggest that you see your physician. The X-ray program is designed to locate the problems before they are large enough to cause real trouble. Most of the disea- ses sought in the X-ray can be located while they are still in the beginning stage and treat- able. Most, of these diseases can- not be detected other than by X-ray until it is too late for ef- fective treatment. The schedule for the mobile X-ray machine is as follows: Today-July 10, Smith's Phar- macy, 10-1 and 3-6. Today-July 10, Wewahitchka State Bank, 11-2 and 3-6. July 11, Smith's Pharmacy, 10-1 and 3-6.

'1 I Receive "Red Carpet" Treatment At Races I I THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Florida SPALqE TWO ,:Editorials Sixteen years ago a riot was something which oc- curred every now and then. Sixteen years ago sniper '. fire on policemen and firemen performing their duties was unheard of. Sixteen years ago there was respect for the law, and while there was some crime, most of it was committed in alleys in the dark of night. If a criminal killed a law officer, no rest was taken by peace officers all over the nation until the murderer was caught .and brought to justice. Sixteen years ago, it was a S' privilege to attend college, and students went to prepare themselves for professions and skilled jobs after grad- uation. Sixteen years ago the courts and public opinion tried the law violator, condemned the criminal and praised the p policeman. Sixteen years ago a policeman would have batted the ears- off a draft-card-burner, and a veteran would have salivated the man, he saw burning Old Glory. Sixteen years ago the man who refused to serve his country was considered to be a coward and a slacker. A little more than sixteen years ago Ethel and Julius Ros- ezberg died in the electric chair for treason against the people of this Republic. Twenty-one years ago Harry Truman and Alben Barkley beat the ears off two men by the name of Tom 4 Dewey and Earl Warren. Sixteen years ago the late President Eisenhower sent out to California and got the the repudiated politician, Earl Warren, and made him Chief Justice of the highest court in the land. This so-called great Liberal immediately made Con- gress a lackey boy of the courts, and turned the criminal element into Canaan, a land qf milk and honey for all rapists, arsonists and murderers. Probably the most effective action against the col- lege rioters taken to date was the step taken last week by a Texas radio station. The station published full page ad- vertisements in area newspapers stating that henceforth no publicity will be given the assaults against the halls of learning on this station's airways. The college riots started as a more or less localized thing, with California leading way at the University of California at Berkeley. This second great state exported the dubious product throughout the nation until a state is now unique if it hasn't had at least one college riot or sit-in. The move has spread like wild-fire with the unruly students (or reasonable facsimiles thereof) getting reams and hours.of publicity throughout the world. The fact -V -- -^ b Too Late To Classify Jby Russell 'Kay Louise and Vernon Lamme took time out of their busy lives to seriously research historical records of Stephen C. Foster who has been labeled "The Florida Minstrel". While there have been num- erous books, and articles deal- ing with the subject, the Lam- me's have succeeded in digging up some interesting facts not found in other records and these .have been recorded in their new . booklet entitled "Stephen Foster- A .Florida Minstrel" recently published. They ask, "What is the appeal in a song that makes it popular?" "Why are some songs heard to- day from every radio and TV pro- gram and from millions of hi-fi sets so soon forgotten while songs like "Oh Susanna" and Jeanie With the Light Brown Hair" seem to live forever?" More than 100 years ago Ste- phen Foster wrote the words and music for "Old Folks at Home" and it will be sung a hundred years from now when most of our so-called music will be long forgotten. Foster gave America its first real "folk music" and it has lived in competition with everything that has been offered since. Foster was born in Lawrence- ville, Pennsylvania, which is now a part of Pittsburg, on the Fourth ot July in 1826. He was the 10th child in a family of 11 children and the death in infancy of a younger' brother James made Stephen the baby of the family. While he received a good educa- tion, his only interest was music- his music. He was not interest- ed in the professions, politics or business which disturbed his family and at their urgence be- THURSDAY, JULY 10, 1969 ABM 3-C Young Serving Aboard USS Enterprise USS ENTERPRISE (FHTNC) - Aviation Boatswain's Mate Third Class Robert D. Young" USN, son of Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Young of 209 Duval St., Port St. Joe, and husband of the former Miss Marsha B. L. Loo of Honolulu, returned to Alameda, Calif. aboard the nu- clear powered aircraft carrier USS Enterprise. The carrier returned to its home port after her fourth combat tour in Vietnam. She is scheduled to leave shortly for the Newport News Shipbuilding and Drydock Company, in Virginia for an ex, tensive overhaul. Wlhile off the, coast of Vietnam she helped provide air support for U. S. and Allied ground forces. Criminals run wild in,the streets, and they rape, rob and burn without fear of reprisal. The .streets of no big city in the nation are safe to a woman after dark, and few of them during the hours of light. Rioters shoot policemen and firemen who are called upon to put down disturbances and put out fires which are caused by the same criminals. The guilty are never punished. Insurrectiopists are praised, and law officers are charged and tried. So much red tape has been put on peace officers that they are too confused to do their duty for fear they will have to go to jail instead of the crim- inal. Mobs tear up property, burn down buildings and kidnap college Presidents. XEducators either quit or fold up, and yet, the mobs roll on to bigger confrontations and greater destruction. Cowards spit on, and tear up the flag of our country, and punks burn draft cards and attack veterans who have spilled blood on the soil of Vietnam. The Supreme Court has become known as the friend, and the haven of refuge for the criminal. Perhaps it cannot be said that Earl Warren is respon- sible for all these things, but he was there to promote the deterioration. The news media can publish all the lauditory edi- torials they desire in praise of Earl Warren, but to us of this newspaper, we will be glad to sing a parting verse of "I'm Glad You're Gone, You Rascal You". We are truly glad he is gone. -Bainbridge (Ga.) Post-Searchlight the nozzle, the more Like a hose, the smaller can block the washing action; .every item in both racks is totally washed and rinsed. Model SRU-80 Etaoin Shrdtu by WESLEY R. RAMSEY I'd like to write an open letter to our representation in the State Legislature. What with the re-organization of State govern- ment after the last session of the Legislature, we have to make our wants and wishes known in this manner. Contacting our local dele- gation is as close as we can get to "personal contact with our gov- ernment" since the advent of "one man, one vote". Messrs. Chapman, Middlemas and Bishop, we would like to call to your attention the million dollar plus investment the state and county has on St. Joseph Peninsula here near Port St. Joe. I am not knocking the investment. The money went to establish a fine facility which is finding increasing acceptance and use by the public. A personal visit to the installation last Friday showed this new playground full of people enjoying themselves. The state park on the peninsula is being used more and more every day. What I'm writing about is the deplorable condition of the road one must travel to get to this million dollar state park. It's not much more than a pig trail in width and most pig trails have fewer pot holes in them than does this road-at least as far as the Coast Guard site. I might point out also, that this same road serves two gov- ernment installations that employ several men who must drive to and from work everyday, over this same pig trail. A few weeks back, my wife and I were going to the Park to have supper with some friends spending the week end there. We were following a camper trailer pulled by a car into the park, just East of the Vitro installation. The camper met another camper and the road wasn't wide enough for both campers to pass com.- fortably and one camper had a wheel drop off the road. The camp- er started swaying and nearly caused the driver to lose control, and, had he been meeting two campers or even a second vehicle, he would surely have hit &he second vehicle. But, had the road been in acceptable repair and widd enough, he would have had no problem in the first place. Y Since we have no direct communications with a road board member any more, we thought maybe you might 'take care of this little problemfor us. It seems a shame to have a million dollar State Park and two 'installations where people go to and from work every day and not have a decent access road. v , *, * It seems that every city and town about us prided themselves this year on observing an "Old Fashioned ,Fourth", with parades, speaking, recreational events, picnics, etc. Port St. Joe tried to get in on the bandwagon, too, with the Council, of Presidents try- ing to work 'up Fourth of July activities. But they started too late and couldn't get the thing together in time. It was too late to get fireworks, which would have been the centerpiece of the at- tractions. But just you look. forward to next year. No doubt the Council will start vWork in time; fireworks will be ordered in plenty of time and Port St. Joe will have a huge celebration next Fourth of July. SOne thing we mariaged to accomplish though; we had a safe and sane Fourth. No one was hurt seriously.

He loved study- ing the music of Negroes who worked on, the river boats of the Ohio, understood and sympathiz- ed with them, and made them subjects for many of his best known songs. Later in life he took to drink. He had failed to copyright most of his work and others did/ so. He died in poverty in the New York Bowery considering him- self a failure. He was found by a friend with a song poem, "Dear Friends and Gentle Hearts" writ- ten by his own hand on a dirty piece of paper and with 38 cents in his pocket and taken to Bel- Ivue Hospital. His family took possession of the body and ,he was buried in the family plot in Allegheny, Pa. The booklet,.

The thirst for publicity is a heady wine for some, and if the actions of the Texas radio station can spread as rap- idly and as completely as did the urge to riot, then the main ingredient for creating unruliness will be long gone. We applaund the actions of this station and urge that its example of rebellion against the rebellers will be copied, throughout the nation.
