ROBERT MOSS


County Commisisoner Walter
Graham insistedagain Tuesday
night that the County Board
take immediate action to widen
and improve the road from State
Road 30-A to the U. S. Coast
Guard site on St. Joseph Penin-
sula. The road also serves as an
access road to St. Joseph's State
Park..
Graham- stated- that it was his
desire to see the road complet-
ed before next summer's tourist
,season and made -a motion, which
was passed by the Board, to bor-
row against the' county's future,
secondary road funds and im-
prove and re-surface the road.
Graham asked that the County
attorney, William J. Rish and the
Clerk, George Y. Core begin tak-
ing necessary steps, immediately
,to make the loan.
OAK GROVE WATER
Commissioner Graham present-
ed information furnished by
county engineer, Max W. Kil,
bourn, which he felt would now
make-a water and sewer system
'for the community of Oak Grove
feasible.
This project had more or less
been static for several months
because of the high cost- involv-'
ed. Kilbourn has located a new
water' treatment system now on
the market, which he thinks will
make the project feasible.
About 15 citizens of Oak Grove
Were on hand to hear the an-
nouncement, including the chair-
man of the Oak.Grove Water and
Sewer District, James Hanlon.
.Graham said that engineers
figures show that, based on a
50% federal grnnt and a '50%
FHA. loan the average water
bill would be $6.37 per customer
per month and sewer charges
were estimated at $3.19 per cus-
tomer.
Hanlon was presented with the
new report to show to the citi-
zens of Oak Grove for their re-
action. Hanlon said he would'
present the community's feel-
ings in the matter back to the/
Board at an early date.


The system proposed 'by Kil-
-bourn would produce 200 gal-
lons: per minute of treated wa-
ter from two four inch wells.
STAMPS, or .COMMODITIES-
*Discussion wame up again Tues-
day night on whether :to inves-
tigate the. attributes or liabilities
- of fo6d stamps as opposed to the
commodity food program now be-
ing used by the county.
Commissioner Rudy Pippin,
who is in charge of county wel-
fare programs, said he wanted
to see'what stamps had to offer
before going further into the
commodity program. The county
is contemplating construction of


freezer facilities to store perish-
able items in the program. Pip-
pin asked that people from the
welfare department be invited
before the board to explain the
stamp plan. Commissioners Silas
Player and Walter- Graham con-
curred with Pippin, but Chairman
- Leo Kennedy said he was not in
favor of .the stamps, because the
groceries purchased with stamps
could be too easily traded for
whiskey. Commissioner Player
retorted that there is some bad
in everything and he pointed out
that he had seen commodities
thrown away in the garbage.

Stolen Car Found by Swimmers Last "

Saturday In Waters of St. Joseph Bay


A stolen late model sedan was
located by swimmers in the wa-
ter at St. Joseph's Peninsula Sat-
urday afternoon, according to
Deputy Sheriff H. T. 'Dean.
Dean told The Star that the
auto, owned by Henry Moore of
St. Joe Beach, had been report-
ed stolen on July 18.


The car was located in about
eight feet of water in what is -
known locally as "Tapper's Ma-
rina".
Dean said the car, which was
completely covered with barna-
cles was completely intact with
nothing stripped from it. He said
the person or persons who stole
the car have not been found.


"Operation Help" Draws Whole-Hearted Support of St. Joe Citizens


Virtually all of Port St. Joe
joined hands last Thursday to
provide "Operation Help" for the
hurricane Camille victims of
Gulfport, Miss.
Carl Goodson, a driver for the
St. Joe Paper Company Container
Division, and C. E. Daniell, sup-
erintendemt of the Gulf County
Mosquito Control here in Gulf
County, pulled out Friday eve-
ning at 7130 pAn., on a Ryder
system truck 'headed for the


storm-ravaged area with '20 tons
of food,' medicine and dcldthing,
all donated Thursday afternoon
and'Friday -morning 'by Port St.
Joe citizens., I
Tuesday, Radio Station "WJOEE
began calling fur ifadhing cdona-
tions for the Imurricane victims.
Members of several of -the IPort
St. Joe civic clubs decided to or-
ganize: and do- Me job Tight--by
going from door to door -solicit-
ing aid for- the victims. Jimie;

Pre att volunteeredd to head up
the program, and 'it got under-
'way.

'to contact and enlist ^their -mem-
bers 'in a door to door-program

, nue and before one coudild realize


what had happened, a large trai-
ler van was loaded with cloth-
ing, $3,500 worth of groceries and
medicines. /
St. Joe Paper Company furnish-
ed boxes for the sorting and pack-
ing which allowed more mater-
ials to be placed on the truck
and easier sorting at the desti-
nation.
A Small army of citizens-most-
ly women-gathered, at the col-
lection depot and did the tedious


job of sorting and labeling.
Goodson arrived at Gulfport at
4:00 a.m., Saturday and said that
crews of military, Salvation Ar-
my,- Red Cross and volunteers
were working around the clock to
unload truck loads of donations
pouring into the stricken area.
Both Goodson and Daniell re-
ported that people in Gulfport
were organized to properly 'han-
dle and dispense all of the arti-
cles as they arrived. .

Incredible!


Incredible!
That's a mighty weak expletive, to use in describing
the response of the people of the Port St. Joe area to the
plight of the unfortunate people of Mississippi who were
numbed by the destruction of hurricane Camille, but it
will have to do. Maybe, if you use a magnifying glass on
'that word, it will grow to the proportions that is needed
to describe the situation.
It's hard to imagine -a town the size of the City of
Port St. Joe getting together in less than eight hours and
contributing enough clothing, food,' medicines and essen-
Stials together to pack solidly and fill a large trailer van.
i It' hard to imagine enough people volunteering their time
to collect, sort, pack and load this many items'in this short
a time.
Operation "Help" was born as an idea in Port St. Joe
Tuesday. A meeting Tuesday afternoon, late, set up the
,machinery that would try to enlist .enough people to carry
it out.. AH the civic clubs pledged their support, but it
was still unthinkable to dream that the results would be
as great as they were.


Thursday, the operation got in high gear. People
began to bring in their donations to help the unfortunate
in Mississippi. The City Commission met for an emergen
cy meeting and voted to provide $1,000 worth of groceries
for the hurricane victims. Thursday afternoon at 4:30
members of the civic clubs began to tour the city collect-
ing items to be taken to Mississippi. Many collection
teams had to make several trips to the loading point on
Reid Avenue because of the generosity of the people in
helping the unfortunate.
Nobody was particularly asked to help with the sort-
ing and the packing, but a large and ample labor force
was on hand at all times to adequately take care of the
flood of donations.
It was an effort such as this townhasn't seen in a
long, long time. We believe the people of the town wil
benefit from Operation "Help" just as much as. the peo-
ple of Mississippi.
Too, one has but to look at a map tracking the hurri
. cane, and he can well see that we. could very well have
been the recipients rather than the donors of this aid.


We never knew there were such smart people in this
S world. We knew we had plenty pf brains brains to
accomplish most everything we wanted to do, but the
brains exhibited last week at a meeting in Panama City
tops them all.
We would like to meet the person or persons who
Scan look at a piece of bark, that has admittedly been in
the water for years and definitely say where it came
from. When one considers that lumber operations have
operated on the waterfronts of Bay and Gulf counties
since before the turn of the century; when one takes into
consideration the fact that International Paper Company
has operated on 'the shore of St. Andrewy Bay since 1932
and .St; Joe Paper Company has operated on the shore
of St. Joseph Bay since 1937 all using pine logs and
definitely say that one particular firm out of at least a ,
'* half dozen is responsible for piling pine bark on the bea-
ches, to this editor is an incredible feat.
We would like to see these brains go to work and
clarify one more matter.
The State's pollution people examining the beaches
report that only 10% of the debris found on the beaches
was pine bark. The other debris was sea grasses, cans,
paper, bottles and inany sorts of residue from humans

Since the brains are so adept at placing the blame
for the source for a commodity as rare as pine bark tc
this area, we would like them to go further and place the
source of pollution and the blame for its being there -
on the other 90%. Let's don't leave a job half done
(Excuse our arithmetic) 10% done.
Representatives Joe Chapman and Jerry Melvin, mem-
bers of the State's special committee investigating pollu
Stion, pointed out here in Port St. Joe that "the people are
responsible for most pollution not industry.'",
Now, let's really get to the "meat of the coconut" in
our outrage at this pollution business. Who's willing tc
pick up their bottles, their cans, paper napkins, 'plates, food
scraps and other debris when go to the beach, camping
or on a picnic and bring it back home to our garbage cans
If you really want to get rid of pollution,' this is what you
will do.
Pollution has rightfully become a concern of the peo-
ple after so long a time. We, as individuals have allowed
pollution to get to the point it has now reached. But let's
not get on a "witch hunt" as to ihe cause. Man-you and
I-individually and 'collectively is the cause of pollution.
He will also be the remedy.

Rev. Abernathy took his mule-
train to-Cape Canhveral in pro-
test and deplored our expendi-
tures on space flights when
thousands here on earth are
starving or undernourished and
ill-housed.
An animal lover thinks that if
we are going to honor the men
who reached the moon we should
provide equal honor to the mon-
keys who sacrificed their lives in
earlier flights to make success
possible.
A youngster asks why so much
concern over bringing back germs
from the moon. Haven't we got
plenty of wouthwashes and germ
killing deodorants to take care
of any situation? Or are these TV


ads- a lot of hooey?


A colored man watching the
moon lands says, "Oh, oh, there
goes, the neighborhood."
A moon native hiding behind a
rock and watching the landing
rushes to the sheriff and tells
him he saw a flying saucer land
and three men in funny clothes
embarked. Of course everybody
said he was as 'nutty as a fruit-
,cake and they sent him to the

Letter to,


the Editor

Dear Wesley:
I am writing to ask that you
put this letter of thanks to the
citizens of Gulf County in your
e paper.
e Wesley, when I was asked to
be the chairman of "Operation
Help", for all the civic clubs, I
s had. no idea it would turn out
to be so big. As you know, we
filled up the large truck with
food, clothing and medical sup-
plies,
Thursday morning, I needed
help with the packing and I put
out a call for women to come
down and help. Boy! Did they
become! They worked from 10:00
a.m. til 9:00 p.m. The truck
e would have been held up at
least another day if they had not
volunteered so readily.
Also, the police department,
l city employees, Vitro and all the
civic clubs in town and a number
of just good citizens off the
streets and a host of young peo-
ple saw the need and pitched in
e to help.
It does your heart good to see
all the people working together
like they did Thursday and Fri-
day.
The people of Gulfport, Miss.,
with whom I have talked, thank.
ed us very much and stated this
Swas the only shipment they had
received which had the articles
I- separated and labeled.
Again, thanks to all the ,fine
e citizens of Gulf County, and may
o God bless all of you.
e JIMMIE PREVATT,
Chairman,
''Operation Help"



Rain Causes Heavy

e Damage to Fields

Recent heavy hains caused se-
o vere erosion damage in many
fields.. Neglected water disposal
systems, in most cases brought a-
bout by some extended dry periods,
? will allow, surface, water to rush
across barren Lfields and long
slopes taking the- pay dirt to the
river and out. Land without water
disposal systems will also suffer.
Be sure to keep the outlet ends'
of your .terraces open and the
Ssainded-in places dug out of the
terrace channels. Keep weeds
mowed. in your grassed waterways
,and the grass fertilized. It is an
excellent idea to fertilize water-
ways and .other vegetated areas
when you fertilize a crop within
the same field. A job of water dis-
posal and soil protection' of this
kind doesn't just happen; it has
to be made that way by careful
'planning, good layout and con-
struction, and a proper mainten-
ance program.
Technical assistance for applying
conservation' practices is available
through your Tupelo Soil and
Water Conservation District in the
county courthouse in Blounstown.

I never thought I would live to see the day when a supposedly
normal-thinking newspaper, circulated every day as an organ of
the people and not a dispenser of an idea or ism would make such
editorial statements as "Rule 'By People' Myth", referring to the
government of the United States. I never thought -I would see
the day when a newspaper would editorialize: ". people are vir-
tually reduced to making use of the vote, the ballot, as their only
form of protest; not realizing, of course, that their vote and their
very participation in the process, they are sanctioning the idea of
the Divine Right of Kings in the form, of the Almighty State and,
thereby, helping to perpetuate the very system that is oppressing
them".
And further we read in the same editorial: "When were 'the
people' who supposedly, are 'the government, ever allowed to vote
on the question of war or. peace? When were 'the people' ever
permitted to cast their votes on whether their sons, husbands, bro-
thrs and sweethearts were, to be drafted or not? When were
'the people' ever allowed to indulge in\ the democratic process on
whether taxes (not just justsome taxes, or some particular form and
degree of taxation, bat taxes per se) were to be. abolished or not."


We must answer these questions, "Every Aday".
Such questions as these are the same'questions that are being
asked by the rebellious of our. nation. And anyone with his head
*placed right on his shoulders would know that if all people were
allowed to decide for himself what he, personally, would do in a
given situation,' we have chaos, more politely described as anarchy.
The people are ruling this nation. They make their wishes
known periodically (usually every even-numbered year) during the
month of November. The will of the people is changing our way
as a nation. They are effective as a voting/ individual and force.
Our government is the people and run by the people, no matter
what the kooks say.
If we are forced to entertain such questions, we must also face
the questions of our children and allow them to ask, "Why do I.
have to' do what you tell me why must I ask my parents if I
can do certain things?" "The principle is the same.
We must have authority we must have taxes we must
have the means to; protect ourselves and we must back up our
commitment and our word to our 'friends. If we do not like the
way our leaders do these things, we change leaders. We, the voters
still have the last word in our country.
I thought I would never see the day when a columnist of the
stature of Mak Lerner would make such a statement as .he did,
either.. In a column last week, Lerner stated, "When the older
generation grasps the fact that the legal banning of poi is in-
effectual 's well as unwise, that 'the use of it is widespread and that
a monster crowd of young people passing it around, listening to the
music they like, doing the thing they like together, can find a r
sense of serenity in the face of discomfort and' even hardship".
-If we accept this type philosophy we might as'well wonder why
it is illegal to steal objects out of stores. Many are doing it and find
a "sense of serenity" in taking something they didn't pay for or
that doesn't belong to them. We might as well legalize driving with- '"'
out a license, so many are doing it. We may as well abolish the
compulsory attendance of school because it interferes with the
"serenity" of many youth.
'What's wrong with cultivating a sense of responsibility rather
than catering to a sense of "serenity"? ,

Bill Would Divert
Tax to Interior Dept.

Hunters and shooters would re-
ceive an extra $5,000,000 a year if
Congress passes bills introduced in
the House and Senate, according to
the Game and Fresh Water Fish
Commission. *
Dr. 0. E. Frye, Commission Di-'
rector, said, "The bills H.R. 1048'
and S.670 are identical and would
divert the ten percent tax on hand-
guns from general revenue to the
U. S. Department of the Interior."
Half of the funds would go to
the states on a fifty-fifty matching
basis for hunter safety programs.
The other half would go to the
federal aid in wildlife restoration
program, for improving Florida
wildlife through research and man-
agement.
At a recent meeting of the Game
and Fresh Water Fish Commission.
the Commission went on record as
supporting both the Senate and
House bills and urged all Florida
sportsmen and conservationists to
offer similar support.

An adequate spray program is
essential to produce higher qual-

pointed out. The peach spray
program recommended by the

Thick Meats Better
For Outdoor Broiling

GAINESVILLE ;- The thicker


the meat, the better for outdoor
broiling, says Extension meat spec-
ialist Dr. Bob Reddish, Florida Ag-
ricultural Extension Service.
If it's steak, make it at least an
inch and a half.- or -preferably
two inches thick. The meat will
be juicier and more flavorful. Thin
cuts, Dr. Reddish says, dry out too
fast over the charcoal heat.
This.. doesn't mean a two-inch
steak for each member of the fami-
ly. Instead of a steak apiece, carve
a thick steak to feed two, three, or
four.
The thickness principal applies
to other quick-cooking meats over
an outdoor grill. Make your-ham-
burger patties thicker. Cut pork
chops and lamb chops thicker. And
slabs of ham won't curl and dry
out if they're left one to one and
a half inches thick instead of a thin
half-inch slab. -
. Be sure to handle your meat
tongs or other equipment ,that
won't pierce the meat as it cooks.
This helps keep the juices in, Red-
dish says.

New Schedule

Outlined by Wilder

..... Port St. Joe High School Princi-
pal Walter Wilder outlined a new
schedule for high school students
to follow during the new school
year at the Tuesday meeting of
the Kiwanis Club. "This is the only
school in this area that will be us-
ing this new scheduling", Wilder
said.
The principal pointed out, that
there are two primary reasons for
the new schedule: 1) to provide
i free time for individual help for
I students in every subject and-to-
prevent interruption of class per-
iods.
Wilder said thel new schedule
concept will provide six class per-
lods a day, rather than five as in
the past. The new periods will be
55 minutes long, with 55 minutes
ifor lunch. -
The new program will provide a
free period at the beginning of the
school day for half- of the teach-
ers and students, and a free period
at the end of the day for the ,oth-
er half. "This isn't a' 'run-around'
time for students", Wilder empha-
This sized. All students will :use the
that periods for study, individual hel
from teachers, or to take -an extra
hotos subject, with special permission.
Another innovation' is a floating
two hour -period in each week to
be used for special activities, in-
St ramural sports, clubs, testing or
making up lost class-work, Wilder
said. "At present, there isn't a
w eek goes by without a class or
two being interrupted by special
events and activities", he said "We
= plan ,to eliminate this situation
g| .with this two hour period".
"The beautiful part of the whole
plan," he said, "is that is adds only
15 minutes to 'the school day while
giving more time for lunch (and|
the all-important individual help to
all students who need it."


Wilder said the program has
been verbally approved by the
State Board of Education and has
received the endorsement of the
Gulf County School Board.

FHP Predicts 20

Holiday Deaths
TALLAHASSEE -- Asking
drivers to prove them wrong,
the Florida Highway Patrol to-
day predicted that 20 persons
will die in traffic accidents dur-
ing the Labor Day weekend peri-
od in Florida.
Colonel Reid Clffton, Director
ur the Florida Highway Patrol
said, "We are making this pre-
diction with' the hope' that drivers.
will prove us wrong this year
by an even greater margin than
they did last year. If can be done
if every driver will display a con-
scientious effort to drive safely."
Last Labor Day the Patrot pre-
dicted 20 deaths for a 78-hour
period but the death' toll was,
held at 13. "This was better than'
we had anticipated but still much,
too high," said Clifton. "This;
year we want to be proven wrong
by a much greater margin."
This year's holiday' periodl is

Jack Mickelson, climatologist with
the University of Florida's Insti- lG GER TIH-AN
tute of Food and Agricultural Scien- F ... ...
*ces (IFAS).
Lightning kills up to 15 people in'
Florida each year and injures many
others. The number of casualties isi
so high because of the state's heavy /


tnunderstorm activity, ne explained.
Lightning is always present in
thunderstorms, and the annual
death toll is higher for lightning.
than. for tornadoes or hurricanes.
SProperty loss caused/by lightning
fire and other damage to struc-
tures, aircraft damage, forest fires,
livestock deaths and other injuries,
disruption of electrical service,
and other effects -7- is estimated-at
more than $100 milliop-a-year in
this country, Mickelson said.
"Lightning is the' result of a com-
plex series of energy exchanges
within clouds, and no completely
acceptable: theory explaining its
cause has yet been advanced," Mic-
kelson asserted.
Current peaks in lightning may:
reach, 200,000 amperes or' more.
These peaks produce forces which
have a crushing effect upon c'on-
ductors, and ,often, cause non-con-'
ductive materials like wood and
brick to literally explode. The cur-
rent also produces lots of heat, and
this is responsible for many fires.
In fact, a national survey for one
five-year period showed an average'
of 27,000 fires a year are caused
by lightning. Another 6,000 fires
are started in forests by lightning
every year.
Although aircraft are rarely
brought down by'lightning, it can
cause severe damage to planes.
[Generally, occupants of planes are
unaware- of the lightning strpke,
he said.
Persons struck by lightning: re-
ceive 'a' severe electric shock or
I burns, or both. Contrary .to pop-
ular belief, people don't carry an
electrical charge after they've been
struck, and they can be handled
safely. Artificial respiration -and
other first aid measures can some-
times revive lightning victims.
Mickelson offered the following
safety tips when lightning threat-
ens:
(1) Stay indoors and don't ven-
j,ture outside unless absolutely ne-
cessary.
(2) Stay away from open doors
or windows, fireplaces, radiators,
stoves, metal pipe'l: sinks, plug-in
