TEN PAGE THE STAR 10c PER COPY "Port St. Joe--The Outlet Port for the Apalachicolc-Chattahoochee Valley" THIRTY-THIRD Y9AR PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA. 32456 THURSDAY, JANUARY 1, 1970 NUMBER 17 Scol Board Asked or Integration P 34 Will Die On Florida Highways In Weekend TALLAHASSEE---"Be a friend first and then a good host," re- minded the Florida Highway Pa- trol this week as they predicted that 34 persons will diei in traf- fic accidents during the New Year holiday period. Patrol Director Reid Clifton said, "As usual, alcohol will prob- ably contribute to many of the 34 traffic deaths we are predict- ing. If you plan a party, be a friend first and then a good host. Donrt let guests leave your home to drive to their death because Firemen NHeed Wewa Alarm Port St. Joe's volunteer fire department was called to Wewa- hitchka Monday night about 8:30 when fire was, discovered in the Smith's Sundries building there. The fire was discovered coming through the roof of the building and Port St. Joe was called due to adjoining buildings being, threatened. The fire was not as bad as it was first thought, being confined to the area where a flue from a cooking unit goes through the roof. Wewahitchka's department had the blaze out when Port St. Joe's truck arrived. Saturday night, two fires were reported in the City in the vicin- 'ity of 15th to 16th Streets in the alley between Constitution and Monument. Two piles of pine straw were burning-one at the 16th Street end of the alley and one pear the 15th Street end. No property damage was re- ported. ': .;i', hll., l l i i lil : .i 1!

Clifton urged ,hosts to have non-alcoholic beverages on hand for drivers or help make ar- rangements for transportation for those who might have too much to drink. The New Year's holiday period begins at 6:00 P.M., Wednesday, December 31, and ends at mid- night Sunday, January 3. If the Patrol's prediction is correct, one person will die every three hours during the long 102-hour holiday period. To help curb the expected .highway deaths Clifton said that all available troopers and auxil- iarymen will be assigned to traf- fic duty and will be working with aircraft, radar, VASCAR and unmarked Patrol cars during the entire holiday period. Mrs. J. F. Mamoran Talks to Soldier Son Mrs. J. F. Mamoran of White City talks to her son, James Ed- ward, stationed in Vietnam, dur- ing the Christmas holidays. The call was arranged and paid' for by the local Communications Workers of America, telephone operators. Delegation Going After Park Money A Gulf County delegation will attending a meeting in Tallahas- see Monday of next week in an attempt to get money released to begin construction of the Sun- land Training Center recreational park on St. Joseph's Peninsula. Money was appropriated in the last session of the legislature to start work on the facility, which will serve all Sunland schools in the State of Florida, but during revamping of State government the project has somehow become sidetracked. The project is now administered by the Department of Health and Rehabilitative Ser- vices, and must again win appro- val of that department. The old State Board of Health and Park Board had previously agreed on the project. The meeting will be held at 2:30 p.m. with Representative Joe Chapman, Hughey Williams, J. T. McNeill and Charley Davis sche- duled to appear in favor of go- ing ahead with the project. 40' Cruiser Found Adrift by Local Fishermen; Towed In Gulf Gridders On All-State Teams Gulf County came out well rep- resented on state class 'B' and"C, all-state football teams in selec- tions made Saturday. Two Port St. Joe players were named to the first team class B squad. Larry McFarland was nam- ed at offensive 'guard while Ad- rian Gant was picked at defen- sive end. Both have been valu- able members of the Sharks for two seasons. I Safety George Williams, a jun- ior was named to the second team and senior tackle Jimmy tancas- ter was picked for the third team. Buddy Boyett, received honor- ,able Imention at end. In the class C all-state selec- tions, Wewahitchka's offensive back Curtis Branch and lineback- er Joe Jackson were chosen for the first squad. Wewa's quarterback, Pat Pat- terson received honorable men- tion. Post Office Will Close Thursday Postmaster Chauncey Costin in- formed The Star this week that the local post office will be clos- ed for business all day Thursday, January 1, New Year's Day. There will be no delivery of mail on city or star routes. Holi- day collections from street col- lection boxes will be in effect. Mail will be boxed as usual for post office box holders and nor- mal holiday receipt and dispatch of mail will be performed. A snapper fishing boat owned and operated by Blake Thomason. and Gene Abrams' Dixie Seafood Company, found a yacht Satur- day. The snapper boat, Aspaisa, with Billy Watts as captain was heading for the snapper fishing grounds Saturday afternoon when they spotted the half-sunk 40 foot Chris-Craft yacht flounder- ing about 20 miles Southwest of St. Joe sea buoy. The boat was -up to its deck in the water, with a hull full of sea water, but it hadn't completely sunk. Watts threw a line on the boat and towed it back to the Dixie ,Seafood Company dock on the Gulf County Canal. Blake Thomason, one of the operators of Dixie Seafood said from what he can learn through the U. S. Coast Guard, the boat was being towed by a shrimp boat to South Florida when rough seas started it to sinking and the tow line broke. The tow boat evi- dently thought the boat was sink- ing and left it. Registration of the boat has still not been ascertained, but a radio registration on the boat is issued to a George Brewer of St. Louis, Mo. Officials are still at- tempting to locate the owner. This Accident Has Wilder In Hospital B. W. December Wilder is accident. Wilder received rib injuries in this automobile Saturday, 20 at the intersection of Niles Road and Highway 98. still confined to Municipal Hospital as a result of the -Star photo Must be Put In Writing No Later Than Dec. 31 had made every attempt to hire the suggested six white teachers for Washington High, but that they were able to hire only five. The Board has pointed out that all transportation facilities have been integrated as much as pos- sible The Board asked in its October letter that the situation be left as it is in Port St. Joe until.the beginning of the 1970 school year when proper facilities will be available to adequately care for the proper education of the students. The Gulf County School Board received a dubious Christmas present over the holidays in the form of a letter from the De- partment of Health, Education and Welfare, calling them on the carpet for riot meeting alleged time-tables for removing any sign of "racial identifiability" of schools in Gulf County. The letter gave the Board un- til Wednesday, December 31 to file their plan. The Board met in a special session Tuesday af- ternoon to reply to the letter, but The Star went to press about the time the meeting was to start, and the results cannot be reported here. The Board has stated to HEW in the past that they understand the Civil Rights Law and intend to adhere to it. Wewahitchka's schools have been completely integrated and the same is scheduled for Port St. Joe as soon as new facilities are completed. POINTS CITED The letter cited the Board for failing to: 9 Place six white teachers at Washington High School. The Board has five white teachers in this school and has been unable to hire a sixth, according to Sup- erintendent Marion Craig. 0 File plans for the ,elimina- tion of racial identifiability of Washington High School. 0 No definite plans filed for the actual organization of the Gulf County school system for September 1970. The biggest complaint in the letter, written by Dewey E. Dodds, Chief, Education Branch, Office for Civil Rights, seemed to be the lack of a formal plan plan filed by the School Board. PLANS DISCUSSED The letter noted several in- stances where representatives from HEW had visited the local schools and discussed plans for total integration of Gulf schools and were fully aware of the Gulf program, but they did not have it in writing. The letter complained that the integration of Washington and Port St. Joe High Schools, which had been tentatively set for De- cember, 1969, had been postpon- ed to September 1970. This was due to the building not being completed. NO DEADLINE SET The letter did not apply the February 1 deadline for complete integration as has been applied- to other school districts in the area, but it said, in closing, "In the event we do not receive the requested reply, we shall have no alternative but to recommend that enforcement proceedings as provided by law be initiated." BOARD WRITES HEW The Board wrote HEW in Oc- tober that several steps toward complete integration had been taken by the School district. It pointed out that already a con- siderable number of Negro stu- dents and teachers were in both Port St. Joe High School and Port St. Joe Elementary School. It was also emphasized that the Board Port St. Joe's Sharks entered a Christmas tournament held in Blountstown last week end, and lost again to Rutherford in the opening game of the Tournament 57-49. The Sharks went on to d e f e at Blountstown Saturday night to take the consolation vic- tory, 70-64. Rutherford built a 35-20 half- time lead over the Sharks, but then had to fight for their life as the Sharks came roaring back in the second half in their bid to pull the game out of the fire. The Sharks scored 18 points in the third period while holding the Rams to only nine points. Norris Langston paced the Sharks with 20 points and James McGee added 14. Mariel Rogers led the Rams with 24 points. (Continued On Page 10) Series of Petty Thefts Are Reported Port St. Joe Police reported a series of petty thefts from break- ing and entering during the Christmas holidays. Chief H. W. Griffin reported that the Lewis Garage was brok- en into the night of December 23 and some tools taken. Also, on the night of the 23rd the old Duren Super Market building on Main Street was en- tered and soft drinks taken. Wednesday night, December 24, Duren's Economy Store on Highway 98 was forced open and several cans of motor oil stolen. Police say they have some leads on the three crimes but no arrests have been made as yet, Harvests Grapefruit B. L. Presnell shows off the fruit crop on his three-year-old grapefruit tree. Presnell has the tree planted in his back yard at Simmons Bayou. Presnell said about a third of the fruit have been picked off the tree, and still it is loaded down nearly as heavy as a South Florida grove tree. Presnell has other bearing citrus trees in his yard, also. -Star photo Sharks Take Consolation Game In Tournament ----- r--&ArmES~~i!~~~i PAGE TWO THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. 32456 THURSDAY, JANUARY 1, 1970 Editorials... March of Dimes Month January is March of Dimes month. The older genera- tion remembers when the March of Dimes "reached for the moon" by setting the elimination-of polio as its goal. Now that polio is rarer than typhoid, the March of Dimes has set its sights on preventing birth defects. In/medieval times, superstition had it that birth de- fects were a form of punishment. Today, we live in an enlightened age. Scientists are showing us, again and again, the reasons why birth defects happen and how some birth defects can be prevented. In medieval times, children' born with crippling birth defects were shunned and feared. Now, everyday, doctors are making strides in treating children born with mental or physical handi- caps, and helping them to live full and useful lives. However, modern preventive or corrective measures will never be fully effective unless the public is made more aware that birth defects is a national health problem which affects us all. The public must be made aware in order for them to do something about the tragedy of birth defects.; One infant born with a birth defect is tragedy enough, but there are over 250,000 children born with physical or mental defects every year. Birth defects are not a tra- gedy that happen to someone else .. to some other community. It is a nationwide tragedy which has and is happening here in Port St. Joe. Unless we citizens of Port St. Joe do something about birth defects, the, prob- lem will expand and affect more and more of us. The March of Dimes is in the fight to prevent birth. defects. This newspaper believes that fight is a worth- while one and we urge you, the citizens, to help them . give to the March of Dimes. Prevent birth defects. For A World Free of Birth Defects Letters... Dear Band and Mr. Clark, Out of all my five years in the High School Band, this has been the most enjoyable year of them all. I know I haven't been the best of drum majors, but I have tried my best to be a good one, and I have tried to fulfill my duties as your drum major. This past Saturday (December 6) was my last performance with you as leading you in parades and half- times. I ask you to look over my mistakes I have made during this year. I have enjoyed and found it a great honor to be the drum ma- jor of the Port St. Joe High School Band, but only wish it hadn't pas- sed by so quickly. Sure, I have the rest of the year in concert band, but even that couldn't take the place of being out in front of you and leading you as you play your music and march. I will miss it in the future. This year, in marching contest, we made a Superior. I was more than happy to know that I was the drum major who led you down the field to and then past the judg- es as they rated you with your Superior. It let me know that all the year of practice, and those weeks before school, paid off and we were now on our way to State. I hope that I haven't failed in any of my duties. This note is written only for the reason to say, "thank you" Band and Mr. Clark, for letting me be your drum major forthe 1969-70 school term. I will well remember this last performance in leading our band down the streets of Port St. Joe for our annual Christmas parade. HAROLD BRAMTON Etaoin Shrdlu by WESLEY R. RAMSEY Christmas has come and gone, and by now, most of the left- overs should be gone and things nearly back to /normal. After all of that chicken, turkey, ham, dressing, cakes, pies, fruitcake, candy, ambrosia, nuts, and general junk with which we stuff ourselves at Christmastime gone, wouldn't a tall glass of milk with a-chunk of cornbread crumbled up in it taste good right now? Or maybe a pot of beans? * With the passing of Thursday, it will be back to the old schedule with a long stretch ahead until the July 4 holiday the next holiday when the work-a-day schedule comes to a halt for a rest. With the coming of a new year, we can't help but wonder what it will bring especially in these uncertain times. We understand that the paper mill officials have stated that the mill will operate at least 350 days next year, which is good news for people in this area. That leaves only 15 days for repair shut- downs and holidays. This means that good business is) expected. When the mill has good business, we can look for reasonably good times in this area. I Financial experts predict much the same kind of business for' , the entire nation next year a swing upward after a slight downward trend this last quarter of the year. * Things point to a softening of the cold war next year, and, maybe with a softening in this area, the war in Vietnam will begin to cool down. According to Congressman Bob Sikes news letter just before Congress adjourned for Christmas, the United States and Red China have just had .another informal talk in Warsaw, Poland. We have also noticed in the past few days a trend to soften trade embargoes with Red China and soften our line toward other nations trading with the giant of the Orient. Were the talks the instigator of the softer line? Will the soft- er line result in China helping to bring an end to the Vietnam war? Events of the past few days would point to the fact that the South lost a great deal when Judge Clement IHaynesworth was refused nomination to the Supreme Court of the United States. Since that time, the Supreme Court has taken over the prerogative of the President and the Congress and has gone into the law making ahnd edict passing business. It's real evident to everyone that most of these acts are perpetrated against the South. Last week the Supreme Court capped it all off with its order that certain school, districts in the South would end segregation and completely integrate by February 1. We accept the Supreme Court's proclamation that the schools should be integrated. We believe the Constitution has adequately set forth equal opportunity for everyone -especially should this be applied to children getting an education to see that they are properly equipped to bet- ter themselves, and by doing so, better the nation. The Supreme Court defined the Constitution of the United States, which is their sole responsibility, as we under- stand it. Nowhere in the Constitution will one find that the schools of the South shall be fully integrated on February 1, 1970. So, we say, the Supreme Court is out of bounds in its proclamation. It hardly seems to us that the Court is being com- Too Late To Classify by RUSSELL KAY While we are warned of the danger of cigarette smoking and the law requires such warning to be published on every pack, the internal combustion motor, used in automobiles, motorcycles, boats and airplanes, is fast be- coming a far greater danger.

While we believe integration in schools to be neces- a period of 100 years will take at least a generation to a period of 100 years will take at least a generation to change. As here in Port St. Joe, the Negro people want to maintain their schools. They have a legitimate reason. But, just as consolidation would have been best for Gulf County, so will consolidation in our City be better for the student and his learning opportunity. This should be placed above_everything else desires or whatever. The United States Congress said in 1965, "no steps could be required to correct 'racial imbalance' in schools free from official discrimination". What could be less discriminate than our "Freedom of Choice" plan -, letting a student go to school where he pleases. This also allows for a gradual, virtually pain- less change-over of a century-old habit. In conclusion, we believe the Supreme Court should either stick to its purpose and let us continue our orderly integration or give their same golden opportunity to all of the nation. comes off the assembly line. Ser- ious students of the problem warn us that unless some drastic effort is made to stop this air pollution our larger cities will become death traps for millions within the next 10 to 15 years. While cigarette lung pollution effects primarily those who use them, the automobile and other IC motor vehicles affect all life, including vegetation and live- stock. We have been led to believe that most air pollution was caus- ed by exhausts from industrial plants, but surveys have shown that 80 percent come primarily from automobiles and planes. Consider the fact that motorists of the City of Los Angeles con- sume 800,000 gallons of gasoline a day and you begin to under- stand what is happening. Cities suffering from this type of pol- lution include Tokyo, London, New York, Chicago and countless others. California lawmakers have be- come so alarmed over the situa- tion that they are requiring that all automobiles used in that state be equipped with devices design- ed to reduce pollution. Those on the market today cost the motor- ist about $200 to convert. In the meantime scientists, in- vestors and engineers are fran- tically working to develop a prac- tical steam operated automobile that will effectively eliminate most air pollution. Several con- cerns are promising practical steam operated cars within the next few years. In Los Angeles, the city po- lice department will use 200 steam propelled cars as soon as the manufacturer can deliver them. Detroit has so far shown little desire to consider anything but the manufacture of conventional IC cars. This is understandable, for to convert to steam cars would prove to be a tremendous engineering problem. It is difficult to conceive the chaos that would- result from a sudden change from IC to any other type of propulsion. It would be extremely difficult to convert present day service stations and would disrupt the automobile and oil industries to say nothing of the public. Yet it appears we cannot go on much longer unless we take steps to solve the vexing prob- lem. The question is, can De- troit come up with some sort of a conversion answer or must we completely revamp our transpor- tation industries? IV PI All of these things are mysterious in their happening, but one can see things going on, and things happening later that cause speculation about trades, agreements, etc. Maybe the talks are a good sign for moving closer to peace 0 in 1970. We hope so. The entire world is wasting too much man- power and money on war that could be better spent. Notice, we ' say "the whole world", not just the United States. And when the * whole world is engaged in such practices, the United States can- not very well do otherwise. * With signs of encouragement, with much optimism building in our heart, and the faith that things will get better, we wish you all a very Happy New Year.

Effective December 23, this means customer deposits in Florida banks will now be insured against loss up to a maximum amount of $20,000 by the FDIC. This is the fourth increase in the FDIC's maximum coverage of bank deposits during the Corporation's ,36 years of operation. The most re- cent increase was from $10,000 to $15,000 in October, 1966. Julian Fant, president, F i r s t Guaranty Bank and Trust Company, Jacksonville, commented on the in- crease this week, "The increase rec- ognizes the growing affluence ofi the American public. If also means' that individuals and corporations can maintain larger insured bal- ances in banks. With only one ex- ception, all of Florida's 474 banks have FDIC insurance coverage on their customers' deposits." answer to the Complaint on the Plaintiff's attorney, J.

Snipes, Manager of the Panama City So- cial Security Office. Beginning Jan- uary 1, 1970, the social security beneficiary will pay the first $52.00 of their hospital costs rather than $44.00 as in the past. The increase of $8.00 that a Med- icare beneficiary will pay in his hospital bill effective in January is a result of the long term trend to- ward increasing. hospital costs. It is also the result of the general in- flation that, has been taking place. Gulf Sales Tax Collections Down TALLAHASSEF-The steady in- carcas inF Tlorida's sale in Cuse tax collections continued for the month of November, reaching a new peak of more than $50.2 mil- lion, Comptroller Fred 0. (Bud) Dickinson, Jr., reported this week. The increase in the collections amounted to more than $7.5 mil- lion, or 17.7 per cent over the col- lections for November of 1968, Dickinson said. The increase in the November collections brought the fiscal year totals (July-November) to $251,286,- 129, showing an increase of nearly $36 million, or 16.6 per cent, over the 1968 fiscal year collections. Gulf County sales and use tax collections have been showing stea- dy increases over the past few months, but took a backward slide during November. Last year, Gulf County reported $42,723.93 in tax collections. During November of 1969, $37,598.75 was collected, re- flecting a 12% decrease. Gulf's splurge of increase has probably been due to construction purchases by contractors building the new Port St. Joe High School and in- dustry improvements currently un- der construction. Gulf County reported a whop- ping $79,469.11 collected during the month of October. The hospital deductible amount is intended to make the Medicare beneficiary responsible for expens- es equivalent to the average cost of one day of hospital care. In the event the beneficiary stays more than 60 days, then his share of the cost will be $13.00 -per day for all days over 60 days up to 90 days, Snipes advised. Before Jan- uary 1, 1970, this was $11.00 per day. - For more information about this increase in hospital payments or any other questions about Medi- care, call or write the social secur- ity office at 1135 Harrison Avenue, Panama City 32401.

Today 73 of Flor ida's airports are both paved ani lighted, twice, the 1958 figure, Spencer said , The numbers of. registered air craft and of active pilots in th state have also gained. Active pi lot certificates held by Floridian reached 30,000 last year, compared with 13,000 in 1958. Registered ail craft moved from 2,000 in 1958 t 7,100 last year. During the past 20 years a total of $94 million has been spent in Florida' under the federal aid pr gram, with slightly over half thi amount being supplied by local sponsors. This sum was spent t improve 60 of the airports in th state. Meanwhile, Port St. Joe still doe not have an airport in the mids of this tremendous growth in ai traffic.
