laws of the Dixie Youth Baseball
League, Inc., from which the lo-
cal program receives its fran-
chise, all teams, both major and
minor leagues, will be limited
to 15 players on each team. This
does not mean that any player
already in the program will be
dropped, but it will necessitate
a limit on the number' of new
players coming into the program.
Support Needed

Boy Scout Drive

Sets $3,000 Goal

Boy Scouts of America will
begin their amnnal drive for
funds here in Gilf County' with
a kick-off" breakfast Monday
morning at 7:30 a.m. in the Mo-
tel St. Joe.
Wes Thompson, chairman of
the drive this year, says that Gulf
County has been asked to pro-
vide $3,000 of the $163,531 need-
ed to operate the Gulf Coast
Council during the coming year.
Thompson says the goal is
more than has ever been set for
Gulf in the past, and is consid-
erably more than Gulf has ever
raised in Boy Scout fund drives.
"We have a big job ahead",
Thompson said, "but if: we con-
sider the importance of Scouting
in the lives ,of young boys, I be-
lieve our people: will be .gener-
ous in their donations"..
Workers will begin making
their contacts 'soliciting_ funds
next week, following the kick-.
off breakfast.


More information was present-
ed the City Commission Tuesday
night, by Hughey Williams on
the type garbage service he plans
.to provide for the City of Port
St. Joe if he is awarded the col-
lection contract by the Board.
Williams made a low bid of $35,-
000 to service the City garbage
collection needs, last month, but
a contract has not1iyet been ap-
proved or awarded. ,!
Williams and representatives
from the Dempster Dumpster
garbage collection equipment
firm presented a short film on
the "garbage train',' Tuesday. The
collection, method' utilizes small
vehicles towing up to four large
containers which collect from
customers and dump their col-
lection in a packer truck which
makes the trip to the dump.
After the presentation Com-
missioner Bob Holland noted that
S"There is some controversy for
and some against contracting, out
the service. I think it'll save the
City some money. At any rate,
we should either farm out our
collection service or revamp our
own methods. We also need to
make the service paypits own
way and give better service".
Commissioner Tom Coldewey
noted that "As far; as I can tell-
the only objection is fear that
the service will deteriorate. We
must keep an eye on the service
whichever way we go".
Mayor Pate urged, that "whieh-,
ever way we go, we should study
it thoroughly. We will not go in-
to the new contract until October
if we change, and rd like to see
us.take plenty -of time in.mak-
ing up our mnind".
The Board voted to table the
question of whether or not to
award the contract for further
study.
A plat of two possible locations
for location of Port St. Joe's new,
sewage disposal plant was pre-
sented to the Board .Tuesday
night by the Board's engineers. :
-One of the possible locations
situated between the present
plant and the Gulf County Ca-
nal entrance would need some

to the engineers. This would in-
volve getting State and Federal
approval which might be hard to
obtain at this time.
The second site is located East
of Highway 98 and straddles

Industrial Road to the Gulf

No action was taken on a fi-
nal decision of which site to
choose pending further informa-


tion from the engineers.
A request was made by Frank
McDonald for more street lights,
a fire plug and increased water
pressure for Hunter Circle.
The Board thought Hunter
Circle was included .in the cur-
rent street lighting program and
agreed to investigate the mat-
ter. Commissioner Holland re-
ported that necessary easements
were being signed to allow for
a correction of the water prob-
lem.


Teachers Asking for


Increase In Salaries


A delegation representing 5the
Gulf County Education Associa-
tion approached the Gulf county
School Board Tuesday with ,a re-
quest for an increase in teacher
salaries.
The delegation, made up of
Johnell Palm, Hugh Semmes,
Steve Hand and Zack Wuthrich
requested the Board to set the
minimum salary in Gulf County
at ,$6,600 per year. Gulf now pays
a minimum of $6,000.
The Board told the delegation
that the Board was now levying
the maximum millage allowable
by.,law, and unless the State of
Florida increase its contribu-
tions, chances were slim that
such a salary increase could bhe
considered for next year.
'The Board retained the serv-
ices of Sam Hand, a landscape ar-
tist of Tallahassee to lay out
plans for landscaping the new
high school buildings in Port St.
Joe-and Wewahitchka. Plans are
to have the Port St. Joe campus
landscaped before the 'building
is occupied in September of this'
.year.
The Board retained the Kinard
Service company of Panama City
for water treatment service for
air conditioning equipment' at
both' schools, to keep down scale
and growth in the water cooling
apparatus of the air condition-
ing' machinery. F. B. Summons
of Wewahitchka was retained on
an hourly basis to maintain the
equipment at both schools.
In other business the Board:
Re-appointed George G. Tap-
per as a director to the Gulf
Coast Junior College Board, to
represent Gulf County.


Gators Stop Sharks In' District Finals
Prs nr t na


For the second time this year.,
the Baker Gators erased Port St..
Joe's aspirations to-go to state,
tournaments last Saturday night
as they rode the shooting of Clint
Griffith and Billy Joe Gantt,
along with 16 free throw points
to defeat the Port St. Joe Sharks
66-50 in the District Class B.
play-offs held in Crestview.
The Gators jumped off to a
one point lead which they held
mid-way in the first quarter, un-
til Willie Clark put- in a" field-
goal to give the Sharks a slim
one point lead. The Gators pulled
out to a 15-9 lead by the end of.
the period.
James McGee put the Sharks-
ahead again with two and a half
minutes left in the second per-
iod, and the lead shifted back
and forth until the last ,period, -
when the Gators pulled away
from the Sharks. ,
With three minutes left, the
Gators had a 10 point lead, and -
the Sharks began to try just any- -
thing to get the ball and put
some points on the board. This
only resulted in Baker adding
six more points to their lead by'
the end of the game.
James McGee led the Shark at- Above left, Willie Clark blocks a shot by right, James McGee shoots over the outstretched

Beach Residents

Make Request for

Water Service

A delegation from the Beaches
area in Gulf County appeared be-
fore the County Commission at
their regular meeting Tuesday,
requesting some sort of action
to provide a water system for
that area.
The feeling seemed to be that
the peopleweren't too particular
whether the County granted a
franchise for the Mexico Beach
Water Department to extend ser-
vices to the Beaches or a system
put in such as presently being
planned for Oak Grove, just so
long as they received water.
Commissioner Leo Kennedy

on the possibility of considering
water, service from Mexico

Parker is using you folks. He is

After 15 Years...


After 15 years of wishing and three attempts over
this same period of time, it looks as if Port St. Joe has a
golf course and country club facility all wrapped up and
just about delivered.
Approval by the Farm and Home Agency of the loan
with which to build the course, solved the major roadblock
that has always met attempts to put in a golf course here
-lack of money. A large amount of cash at a reason-
'able interest rate is just what was needed to get the pro-
ject going. Now at last the money is available.
]ut don't think that all the problems are now solved
and we can merrily enjoy a nice country club and golf
course, and all the fringe benefits it will attract to Port
St. Joe. This facility must be supported. This will take
members and money. The more members, the better.
A lot of people have worked many hours to get things'
this far. They have not received any money for their;


efforts, nor will they. It seems that the leas: we as citi-
zens of the Port St. Joe area can do, is support this fine
new recreation facility. -.
This new golf course and country club will serve as
a fine drawing card to our area.' Other communities which
have golf courses, say they draw people like sugar draws
flies. If there's anything we can stand, it is something to
draw some new people.. something to draw some jobs.
We are not destitute as a community, by any means. But
we are in an awkward position. We are too big to be
little and too little to act big. Since nobody wants to go
backward, it is to our advantage to provide every incen-
tive which can cause growth.
We think the new golf course will provide one of
these drawing cards an "ace", if you please. We ap-
preciate those wfio were instrumental in getting the pro-
ject this far.

r Have you missed the "Frito Bandito" on television lately?
a- Well, that's because he has gone the way of the line "Old Black,&
e Joe" in the old folk song.
Mexican Americans have risen up and protested the use of
the "Frito Bandito" because ,they-sensitive souls that they are-
)r feel that this referral types them all as bandits.
n I think it is also time for the whites to assert themselves.
I disapprove of the commercials always using a white man in
the Brylcream commercial. The commercial makes it look as if
all any white man is interested in is becoming irresistable to the
girls.,
One would draw the- natural conclusion also that only white
men get ill enough to/need Nyquil or that only white people get
acid stomach and need Alka Seltzer. And, too, white people aren't
t. the only ones with leaky stomachs, psoriasis, etc.
t White people aren't about to fall apart, and I resent commer-
- cials that imply such.
h Silly, isn't it? So are the other claims by ethnic groups.

By using this same reasoning, we could take offense at Mr. Ag-
new's attacks on the "'news. media". Mr. Agnew didn't mean all
news media, and those he was not talking about, knew it, Thos9"
he was aiming at, winced. But taken at face value, a broad and
loose minded individual could take Mr. Agnew's remarks to mean
all news media and that takes in a lot of territory.
Probably one-of the things we are going to have to learn to W
do in this croGded world of ours, is to learn not to be quite so
sensitive.

) Paul Harvey quoted a statement made by an, Arizona Game
I and Fish Commissioner the other day concerning the present ten-
dency to over-act' on the pollution concern today. The statement
went something like this: "The pot might get to boiling soehoa-
Sit'll boil over and extinguish the -flame". -
Harvey went on to say that control of pollution is going to be
very, very expensive in our nation, and if we become overzealous.
and try to apply unreasonable controls, it may cost more than we
t are willing to pay, and do the cause of conservation irreparable
9 harm by causing pollution controls to be abandoned altogether.
s Meanwhile, on all but our six percent 'of the Earth's surface
the people are going merrily along, unaware that pollution is a
problem. At least, our part will be clean. h T i

t I Was delivering some printing to the Paper Mill office the
other day, and Myrtice Chason handed me this little piece that
might interest you.
It might be encouraging to many of us who worry about
the state ofur world and particularly about our youngsters
to remember that today's problems have existed a long time.
"Children now love luxury, they have bad manners, con-
tempt for authority. Children are now tyrants, not the ser-
vants of their households. They contradict their parents, chat-
ter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, tyrannize
their teachers." -Socrates (469-399, B.C.)


A recent press item from New York reports that as
a result of two 12-year-old girls challenging the require-
ment of pledging allegiance to the flag, court action has
led to a recommendation to principals of New York's 63
high schools that they suspend the practice.
There are 240,000 children in New 'York schools and
the desires of two are being considered over and above
the needs and desires of the vast majority.
It has always been a mystery to us why it is so nee-
essary to pledge allegiance in some instances and not'in
other instances. Why should an alien to our shores be
required to pledge ,allegiance to this county 'as a pre-
requisite for citizenship and a native-born does not.


One joins a club a

must pledge to abide by the


civic club, a country club, a
When he joins that club he
rules and regulations. Upon


joining he knows that ignoring the rules and repudiating
support means dismissal.
When a person joins a church he must agree to ac-
icept the covenant, ,learn the catecism or accept the do's
andc don't of a particular denomination or he doesn't
get in in the first place and some ,churches have been
known to expel members for breaking the 'rules.
When one goes to school, he agrees to make a pass--
ing grade or accept expulsion. He knows this upon en-
rolling' even if it isn't spelled out in a contract.
It's hard to find any group which people may join
or become an integral part of without pledging alleg-
iance and agreeing to abide by the rules except to
maintain one's citizenship in the greatest country in the
world the United States.

Figures are interesting things. They can show us
where we have been, how far we have come, and how
far it is estimated we will go. Of course, figures can be
arranged so that the story is. slanted just a little bit.
One of these plays on figures is coming up in the
United States this year, what with the decade census on
tap to count the men, women and children in this na-
Stion. The census is revealing in many instances.
One way the census is interesting is showing those
who think Gulf County is going backward, losing popula-
tion' and drying up on the -vine, that they are completely
wrong. The census figures tell just the opposite story,
A table on the census history of Florida counties dat-
ing back to 1830 was sent out this week,- which is very
revealing, if one studies the figures.
SLooking over in Gulf County's column we see that
the county had 3,182 people back in 1930, just a couple
of years after the county was chopped off Calhoun. Ac-
-' cording to the table, the county has steadily increased in
r population ever since. Calhoun, it is interesting to note,
lost only 1,500 people between the 1920 and 1930 census,
-even though this 3,182 people had been removed with the -
creation df Gulf County. Calhoun had 8,775 in 1920 and
7,298 in 1930.
From 1930 to 1940, during the years when St., Joe Pa-
per Company moved ,into Gulf County, the population
more than doubled-from 3,182 to 6,951. Since then, the
population growth has been fairly steady 7,460 in 1940,

TO THE EDITOR V


The University of Southern
Mississippi Jazz Lab Band play-
ing Sunday afternoon in Panama
City to a rain-decimated audience
woke up an elderly hell-fire and
damnation Baptist preacher and
kept him awake and smiling.
They had the nondescripts of
middle-age remembering when
but enjoying it much much
more and the under-thirties en-
thralled.
Remember the -loose, some-
times limp-wristed, sometime
hysterical beat and illiterate sim-
plicity of the old jazz bands, the
professionalism of the big-name
bands, the sloppy experimenta-
tion that covered up the inaili-
hties of the mop to bop era and
the -uredeeming filth of the
audio-pornography that merged
hillbilly and ghetto into hard
rock? Popular music seems now
to have come full circle and jazz
is back and it has been perfect-
ed. Not modernized, not mongrel-


two.

one desperately hopes this turns
out to be that "last for which
the first was made".
In early jazz the artist drew
a stick figure and. embellished it.
He mighti-with lazy rhythm,
burp an irregular scallop Around
his drawing, change over to rap-
id penmanship 'swirls or, frene-
tic zig-zagging but the end was
a stick figure embellished and
the embellishings were the ar-
tists' style. These youpg artists
have been taught perception,
depth and dimension. Their stick
figures are just a little differ-
ent, possibly stronger, their em-
bellishings may be subtler, may
be basically the same.
One heard neither the thin-
ness nor the harsh pounding of
the' weak, but wonderful, won-
derful control of the very good.
The sax was sometime sweet and
sometimes sleepy, yet under-
neath, the forceful perfection of
the rhythm gave the listener a
confidence not usually seen in
this age. Everyone pushed back
a little in his seat and relaxed
and enjoyed.
There were new sounds. Good
sounds. There was new music,
some of it composed by the jazz
lab band members.

GARDENING IN FLORIDAServe You



Vote for Plants That Will Serve You


Voting and gardening h a v e
several things in common.
' Choosing what to plant is like
choosing a candidate you've gd6f
to select the best for your district
of the state.
Some gardeners like to vote for
candidates who know gardening.
They ask each candidate what he
thinks about germander in his- dis-
trict.
If he never gets around to men-
tioning the qualities of the bright
blue flowering shrub, kt is assumed
that the candidate is talking about
gerrymander and favors the use
of the salamander's dirt piles to
lay out voting districts.
Regardless of how your candi-
dates pass your gardening test,
vote for plants that will serve you
and your community best.
A popular slate of flowers this
. spring include: aster, balsam, blue
laceflower, celosia, cosmos, floss-
flower, gladiolus, gourd, marigold,
.- morning-glory, nasturtium, rose-
moss, strawflower, sunflower, wisih-


bone flower and zinnia.
Most gardeners pick true and
tried plants over unproven varie-
ties. -
The ysay that sturdy, stocky,
healthy plants often survive best,
when moved to a new district.
Beware of plants that are the
fair weather variety.
You'll rue the day if you select
plants that won't stand the heat of
summer, or the chill of winter.
If you have no favorite flower
candidate this spring, try rose-
moss. It has good qualifications. It
will flourish under the most trying
conditions of heat, drought and
poor soil.
Rose-moss can be used in the
rock garden section of the patio
or in a window box.
The narrow, thick succulent
leaves are completely hidden in a
blanket of gay colors during the
morning when the flowers open.
Rose-moss comes in shades of
buff, salmon, pink and red. The
flowers are about an inch and a

Children Being Vaccinated to Curb German Measles


German measles is p threat
now in Northwest Florida, ad-
cording to Gulf County Health
Doctor Terry Byrd. While ger-
man measles is a mild disease
in children, it is dangerous to
mothers with unborn children. If
a mother contracts german mea-
sles early in pregnancy it is ex-
tremely likely her child will be
stillborn or born with a serious
birth defect.


U


The Gulf County Health De-
partment is striving to combat
this problem by vaccinating all
young children in the kindergar-
ten and first grade groups in or-
der to reduce german measles
in the community so that preg-
nant women will be less likely to
get the disease. This is an indi-
rect approach but the only feas-
ible approach. Contrary to the
practice in most other vaccina-


tions, the unborn children who
are the prime matter of concern
cannot be vaccinated.
Most children now in kinder-
garten and first grade have re-
ceived their german measle vac-
cinations. For the children who
have not received the vaccina-
'tions in these age groups, the
vaccine is available and it is
urged that the parents bring
their children to the Health De-

'Program Set On

Boat Handling

A television program on small
boat -handling stressing safe oper-
ating practices will be nationally
telecast over many television sta-
tions in the NBC network on Sun-
day, March 15, at 4:30 p.m. EST.
TV personality Ed Herlihy will
present 20 boating situations from
a helmsman's position and viewers
will be asked to identify the safe
boating practice required or the
unsafe' practice illustrated. All
that is needed td take the 30-minute
test is a pencil and sheet of blank
paper.
The television program will in-
clude situations in approaching an-
other boat head:on, overtaking,
identifying common bubys, signals,
and dangerous boating and water-
skiing practices.
Colonel Robert E. Snetzer, Army
District Engineer at Mobile, who
has jurisdiction over reservoirs
in Georgia, Florida, Alabama and
Mississippi which accounted for
over 25 million visitors in 1969,
urged all boaters and members of
their families to ,take the 30-min-
ute test. *
"Bbating is one, of the fastest'
growing sports in the nation," Col-
onel Snetzer said, "and everyone
owning a, boat or interested ,in
boating or other water *sports
should take this test. What you
learn may result in avoiding a ser-
ious accident this summer.


What with the advances made in medicine,
keeping abreast of new pharmaceuticals is a
"must" here!

Patrol Director Reid Clifton said,
"The cool temperatures of these
late winter mornings can create
condensation on car windows and
windshields. Drivers that don't take
time to clean their windows be-
fore they drive are creating a ha-
zardous situation on the highways."
Clifton called for drivers to
clean all windows and not depend
on the area of- the windshield

cause "complex traffic situations
mean hazards at all sides of us."
Clifton concluded by saying,
"The small amount of time taken
to insure unobstructed vision can
be a life saving factor. Take the
time to help see your way to safe

With an annual crop of 616 million ears, Florida easily keeps
its lead as the world's greatest. grower of prime sweet corn,
with far-off Los Angeles one of the three big consumers of

Too Late To Classify
by RUSSELL KAY


While fishing in the bay re-
cently I pulled in a White Fish.
He didn't resent being caught, in
fact,he had been waiting for my
hook for some time. He wanted
to talk to me'since I was a col-
umnist and might be able to help
him.
It seems he was disturbed over
an effort being -made to force
fishes to integrate their schools.
He pointed out that White Fish
and Black Fish had maintained
their own schools as long.as he
could remember. He thought it
was unreasonable to require
White Fish to swimi three or four
miles out of their way to join a
Black Fish school and equally
silly to expect Black Fish to at-
tend White schools. He said he
thought the King Fish were out
of their skulls in advocating such
a program.
Just then I felt a tug on my
line 'and a beautiful Black Fish
came tumbling into the boat. He
was militant and said nobody was
going to close his Black Fish
School and require him to join
a White Fish School. He said the
White Fish had been pushing the
Black Fish around for years and
he was tired of it. He blamed
the White Fish for, water pollu-
tion which he claimed was get-
ting worse every day.
My next catch was a hand-
some Blue Fish.' He said Blue
Fish had' their own private
schools and were not concerned
with the quarrel between the
White Fish' and the Black Fish
and he though' it was all a lot
of nonsense.
Then a terrific tug that nearly
pulled me out of the boat re-
sulted in my pulling in a husky
Jew Fish. He too was indignant.
He said the White Fish, Black
Fish .and Blue. Fish all tried to
"push Jew Fish around and some-
thing should be done about it.
My next catch was a Red Fish.
He said everybody knew that
Red Fish had' a better system
than any bther kind pf fish and
before it was all over the Red
Fish would either bury or drown

all the other fish and take over
the waters of the world. He cal-
led the other fish dirty, scaly im-
perialists and predicted their
ultimate destruction when the
Reds took over. He said he had
enough Shell Fish signed up to
take over when the time was
right., r
About this time a Sergeant
Fish and Flying Fish came along
They-were just back from Viet-
nam and the uproar they en-
countered on their return home
seemed ridiculous to them. They
had little sympathy for the pro-
testors and said if they had
spent five years in Vietnam they
might appreciate what a won-
derful privilege it is to live in
the United States.
My last two varieties were an
Angel Fish and a Devil Fish.
The Angel Fish, a beautiful crea-
ture, adjusted her halo and urg-
'ed all the other fish to love one
another and forget: their dif-
ferences. The Devil Fish pointed
a surly fin at the Angel Fish and
accused her of dumping oil oin
the troubled waters of Tampa
Bay.
I had had enough, so I pack-
ed my equipment and headed for
home.

One Beach resident retorted,
'We'd like to be used like that".
At a work session Monday af-
ternoon, the Board heard a re-
" port from their engineer, Max W.
Kilbourn who reported that the
most feasible way for the Beach-
es to have a water supply was
to have their own system and
either drill wells or purchase
bulk water from Highland View
or Mexico Beach.
S Kilbourn also made a report


on a study for a water and sewer
system for White City.
The Board instructed Kilbourn
to investigate FHA financing for
water and sewer services for the
two areas.
Joe Parrott, representing St.
Joseph Land and Development
Company, presented a plat of a
new subdivision for acceptance
by the Board. The plat, Bellview
Addition, is located adjacent to
Avenue A on the East side of
North Port St. Joe. The plat is
for dwelling purposes.
It was tentatively accepted by
the Board.
A Resolution from the Depart-
ment of Natural Resources was
adopted, asking the U. S. Corps
