Dickson was selected for the honor bythre Florida Athletic Coaches Association. .Dickson coached the Port St. Joe Sharks to their first state basketball championship in his- tory in a tournament held in SJacksonville this past spring. Coach Dickson began to make his mark in basketball early in this area, playing on a Wewa- hitchka team which won the' State Class C Championship. He later played for Chipola Junior College and Troy State Univer- sity. Dickson began his coaching career at Greensboro where he fielded three strong teams. He was struck down by a stroke while in Greensboro which left him paralyzed. After a year or so of work and determination, Dickson partially overcame complete paralysis and now works a full schedule al- though he is still paralyzed on his left side. , After Dickson regained some use of his faculties, he came to Port St. Joe as basketball coach two years ago where he built the State Class B championship team. Dickson will attend the state all-star game in Gainesville next week end, where he will be rec- nized as the state's outstanding coach in Class B classification and will be presented with an award. Merchants Having Sidewalk Sale Several merchants of .Port St. Joe are cooperating-in a simul- taneous "Sidewalk Sale" event this week end. The 'summer sale event marks the beginning of the'summer cleN'-out season of spring and summer merchan- dise and marks the beginning of fall and winter emphasis. Port'St.- Joe merchants' intro- duced the "Sidewalk Sale" theme' to this area a few years back and the theme has since been imi- tated by area cities and shop- ping centers. The City Commission has al- lowed the merchants free park- ing for Friday and Saturday of this week to help promote the sales event. Read this issue of The Star and its advertisements to see where the "Sidewalk Sale" bargains are and what they are. Cheerleader Squad "Best" at Tampa Clinic The spirit of being "number one" at Port St. Joe High School has now invaded the ranks of the Cheerleading squad which will be performing at the ath- letic events during the coming school term. The varsity squad left Talla- hassee airport Sunday morning July 6, headed for the Univer- sity of Tampa with high hopes and spirited enthusiasm. They wanted to be the grand cham- pions of the University of Tam- pa Cheerleader Workshop, Sponsored by the International Cheerleading Foundation. Ac- companying the group was Joy Parker, a member of the new organization, Sharkettes. Making the trip were Char- lotte Graham. Carol Parker, Hol- ly Hendrix. Midge Howell, Bren- da Wall, Lynn Knox, Joy Peter- son and Laura Guilford. The girls reported a fine time eat- ing, writing letters home, sleep- ing, and. of course, practicing their cheerleading routines.' The girl's enthusiasm was wit- nessed by the greater Tampa area who had their peace and quiet 'shattered by the girl's ef- forts and routines. The cheerleaders received in- struction in partner stunts, indi- vidual stunts and squad practic- . ing during the week. On Friday, judging was held to select the top group for the. .week. The Port St. Joe squad was voted the best of the lot.- Carol Parker, Lynn Knox, Holly Hendrix and Brenda Wall.

The Port St. Joe team had lost their first game on Monday to Graceville, 4-3, and had to win every other game to stay alive in the play-offs. Port St. Joe defeated Marian- na's National League 6-2 on Tues- day and defeated Chattahoochee 6-3 Wednesday. Friday, the local nine trimmed Graceville 11-6 to make it to Saturday's finals.

We think there's more to be gained by the United States' placing a man on the moon than merely being the first nation to do so. We have proved to the world that, starting from a standing start, giving the opposition a lead, out system can catch and surpass anything another system can do ... ,and do it better. What J1 this ingredient that makes our country so great and our system, with all of its so-called imperfec-, tions, the best for the benefit to mankind? Is it our :reputation fpr working? Even though we have a corps of supposedly thinking people in our nation today who , regard work as a dirty word, our nation still has the repu- tation of being a nation of working people some of the workingest people in the world. Is it'our brains? We have an abundance of this com- modity too. In spite of constant attempts to renovate our school system on the lines of European education, we think our system does produce some of the best brains in the world. A look at the discoveries which have benefit- ted mankind during the past 100 years will show that the United States is far and above the most prolific producer of beneficial tools, medicines, scientific methods, and aids to mankind of any other nation in the world. Really, we believe it is a combination of these in-. gredients. Our system is flexible. We tend to change all the.time. And, our system being like it is, we are prone What's Behind Stud The reason that college students are doing so much demonstrating is that there is no one in class to teach them any more and the students have nothing else to do. Many professors are either writing a book, guest lecturing at another university, or taking a year off to, write a report for the White House. Therefore, the pro- fessor has turned over his course to a graduate assistant who is working on his Ph. D. So he has, in turn, turned the class over to one of the brighter students who is never there because he works on the college news- paper, or is a member of the Student Senate. When the students arrive at class there is no one at the front of the room, so usually a socialist student takes over the class and tells the students that it's about time they revolted against the system. The students pour out on the campus, heading for the administration build- ing to protest to the chancellor of the university, who unfortunately is away trying to raise money for a new business administration .building. The vice-chancellor, of course, is at the state capitol, testifying on new educa- tion bills, and the dean of men is at a convention in Phoe- nix. The dean of women is addressing a garden club in the next state, and the only one left in the administration building is the chief of the campus police who isn't quite sure what the students are yelling about. to thoroughly examine and consider all aspects of any anticipated change before it is made. We are quick to condemn any system which displeases us. Out of this has come the best governmental system in the world. We believe it is our bent to hard work that has made us great also. What makes us work? And, we do work, in spite of the common complaint today that people are looking for a hand-out rather than an opportunity to earn. We agree people are looking for a hand-out, but as long ,,as this element remains unpopular and is looked down upon by the backbone of our nation, we have nothing to worry about. Also, our system of competition has made us accustomed to meeting competition. We strive ,and compete every day in every way to get ahead, to take ad- vantage of the opportunity to make something of ourselves. This habit of competition has stood us in good stead in the competition we face throughout the world; especially from Communism. America, being what it is, cannot help but be first in every endeavor. We are not afraid to take the best of what we experience; to discard something that is not serv- ing its purpose anymore. We are pliable and can make drastic changes without upsetting our entire equilibrium. As long as we have these traits we will continue to be first to grasp opportunity and run with it whe- ther it's going to the Moon or making a more comfortable pair of shoes. lent Demonstrati ons! He arrests the ringleaders of the group-that's those' who are standing in front-and that plays right into the students' hands because now, with the arrest, they have something to demonstrate about. In the meantime, the chancellor flies home to see if he can settle the matter. The students present him with' a petition demanding the release of the arrested demoni- strators. The chancellor is about to do this when the board of regents holds an emergency meeting and votes to back up the chancellor who is 'meting out punishment to the ringleaders.' The faculty, which is made up of visiting professors from other schools, votes to support the students and the chancellor finds himself 'in an im- possible situation. He, therefore, resigns and accepts' a grant from a foundation to make a study of higher edu- cation. By this time, the demonstration starts petering out and the students begin wandering back to class hoping- that there will be somebody there to teach them some- thing. But even that socialist student who started the demonstration is not there. He's been booked on a lec- ture tour to talk about free speech at other universities. So everyone decides to go to Washington and! picket the White House over its policy on Viet Nam. -'-Twin City News lie information.

GARRETT District Conservationist: Two hundred pounds of fresh fish each year doesn't sound !bad, does it? You can harvest that much from your own one acre pond, if it is properly designed and man- aged. Before building a pond, on your. own, check with your Tupelo Soil and Water Conservation District. It takes only a short time for the profesisonal Conservationists of the 'Soil Conservation Service to make an "on site" survey, and offer sound engineering advice for the project. Horseback guesses, when building a pond may result in- flooding of useable land, damage to roadways, and even the loss of buildings. Mistakes can be costly in rebuild.- ing dams that are improperly de- signed with spillways too small to handle the summer rains. or ponds that silt up too: fast to be of any value. Ask your Tupelo Soil Conservation Service workers lo- cated in the County Courthouse in Blountstown for technical assist- ance it pays in the long run.

Assuming everything is just like it was written in the news- papers, Kennedy's reaction to his recent accident, in 'which a pretty .' former secretary was killed, showed less than a lack of judg- ment. One may go so far as to say he showed a complete absence of judgment It's kind of hard to accept the story that he had presence of mind to go back to his party and get someone to drive him to his hotel and forget to report the accident until the next morning. If all of this is true, Mr. Kennedy has proven the point that he cannot be relied on to make a reasonable decision in a crisis and has no business trying to guide this country and its millions of people.

(--- you can DEPEND oq1 THIS publication ) We were reading the other day where some people have begun the job of salvaging the reportedly valuable cargo of the Lusitania, sunk off England during the beginning of the First World War. When these salvage people fully realize that the United States left $1 million worth of equipment on the Moon, somebody will come up with a-plan to salvage it, too. The Moon shot, landing and walk were something weren't they? I stayed right there by that TV until the men did their walk on the Moon. I saw it I saw the landscape as the television camera was panned, but it was .still hard to believe that man had ac- .tually stepped on another planet. It was probably just as hard for the Spaniards to believe that old Chris Columbus had discovered another world, too. In years to come this feat will be just as historic and we all witnessed it. Like as not the people of Spain badgered King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella with the questions, "what are you going to do with that God-forsaken land? There's nothing there but wild forest and wild red men. Of what possible use can it be? How could we econ-; omically transport any products that the wild land may possibly produce back .to Spain?" These same questions are now being asked concerning our space program. As for me, I have no doubts whatever that the t space program will prove beneficial and profitable to man- kind. Frankly, I have never been able to' see what made Joe Namath so great. His looks are deceiving. When he plays football, he looks just like any other quarterback trying to pass' the ball and get away from possible tacklers. The only markedly difference was the hair, but that wouldn't make the difference in playing ability. So, we thought, it must be the rest of the Jets team are pretty fair football players and make Joe look good. I have now changed my mind. I think Joe Namath is a great football'player because of his faking ability. His opponents don't know what he is going to do next. His ability to sucker somebody into the position Namath desires is possibly unparalleled. .Joe has shown his hand in his recent dealings with his "Bache- lor's Three" bistro and the American football league moguls. The American Football League commission was the defensive line, run- ninglinterference while Joe made the opposing team think that the "Bachelor's Three" was a valuable enough property to abandon a $100,000 plus annual salary for. So, he was persuaded' to "reluc- tantly" part with his third interest for a mere $450,000. mmi m .'.i I .. cont |Legal Adv. f men IN THE FOURTEENTH JU- al se DICIAL CIRCUIT OF FLOOR. may IDA, IN AND FOR GULF $10.0 COUNTY subj MARIE NOLA WRIGHT, C Plaintiff, or " RILEY WRIGHT, oft ..

Am\e -- kI IWILt l %JIA M MgqjjV TALLAHASSEE Florida sportsmen will have additional doves added to their bag during the 1969-70 hunting season. Ac- cording to the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission the dai- ly limit for doves has been in- creased from 12 to 18 per day. Hunters will again have a three phase dove season as follows: First phase, October 4 through November 2; second phase, No- vember 15 through November 30; third phase, December 13 through January 6. Hunting will be allowed from 12 noon until sunset of each open day. According to Dr. O0. E. Frye, .Commission -Director, the in- crease in bag limit is actually one step in a continuing wildlife research program, and during the next twp years wildlife biol- ogists will study results of the increased limit to determine what, if any, effect the extra har"'est might have on the dove population. Previous research has 'indicat- ed a normal 70 to 80 percent an- nual mortality in doves whether they are hunted or not. The in- creased bag should provide addi- tional information without any damage to the overall dove pop- ulation. "The increased limit," Frye said, "is a two year study. The six bird increase was selected in order that effects might be mea- sured." "We don't feel one year study or a one or two bird increase would have provided sufficient data to measure effects of hunt- ing pressure and without this information it would be diffi- cult to determine future man- agement plans." The increased bag limit re- search is being carried out in states generally east of the Mis- sissippi. Other parts of the coun- try will have either a reduced bag linit or the same as last year. Frye pointed out that at the end of the study, the bag limit could possibl.k remain at 18 dqves per day, or it couli return to 12 per ddy, or if hunting pressure shows any great effect on the dove population there might be a reduced bag limit in the fu- ture. The mourning dove is classi- fied as a migratory bird and is protected by both Federal and state wildlife agencies. The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service establishes a general framework of open hunting days from which states may select open seasons. Both daily bag and possession limits and shooting hours are set by the Federal Agency. Other dates and bag limits for migratory bird hunting in- cludes the season for rails (marsh hens), gallinules and woodcock. The rail season opens Sep- tember I and continues through November 9. The limits for clap- per and king rails is 15 per day with a possession of 30. Sora and Virginia raios are limited to 25 per' day and possession. A total of 15 Florida and purple gallinules may be taken per day, the possession limit"is two days bag. ' The. woodcock hunting season opens November 1 and contin-. ues througli January 4. Daily bag limit is 5 with a possession lim- it of 10. THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY Hav you ow "supemark t".

Parker has two green houses. equipped to grow orchids which he and his wife give away to'friends, sick people, and for special occa- sions. "Some of my plants are 50 year i old",,Pa'rker said, "the plant never heeds replacing with the proper -care". To get. pther orchid plants, Parker said :h'e divides his pres- ent plants when they get too large.
