City inhe



Electrical

The problem of creating a
workable electrical code has now
spilled over from the Cpunty to
the City, and Tuesday night's
meeting of the City Board was
monopolized'with a discussion be-
tween Board'members and Coun-
ty Commissioners 'Walter Gra-
ham' and chairman. S. C. Player
as to how the two Iboards could
come up' with a unified workable
code.
The City has an electrical code
_but it has been lying on the
shelf and hasn't been enforced.
Last week the County: tried to
adopt the same code and ran.into
a wall of objections, -since the
code and its stringent require-
ments would be unacceptable to
industry in the area. The unac-
ceptable feature was require-
ments that maintenance, repairs
and any change to an electrical!
system' must be inspected. In-
dustry says they cannot live with
such provisions.
Some objections have also been
raised to the effect that installa-
tion of wired in appliances will
also require inspection. City Com-


$350,000 Provided
For Hr.bor Work
CongreismaA Bob Sikes noti-
fied The Star eady this week
that COngress ihas approved 'an
expenditure of $350,000 for main-
tenapce work am the Port St. Joe
harheo.
Sikes said this was the first
Major erpenditre on the local
harbor since 1959, with only mi-
nor inaintenalnce workbeing per-
fornmed since 'that time.
The naimitenanee work will
probably bern 'the harbor itself
with some readingg work expect-
ed- near the :St. Joseph Peninsula
where the channel is plagued by
silting.


irits Its Share of



Code Difficulties


mnissioner Dan Sexton observed
that he sees this as one of the
reasons the state has required
passage and enforcement of the
infection code. "Too many hou--
ses have equipment installed
without proper capacity to carry
the additional electric load".
Player observed to the City
Board that he and Clerk of the
Court, George Core,. have talked
to' the state's Attorney General
by telephone and he interpreted
the law to be applied only to new.
,construction. "However", Player-
said, "We don't have this inter-,
prbtation in writing."
Commissioner Coldewey stated
that the City's code, which is be-
ing used as a model in this case,
is too stringent.
Graham agreed that the city's
code is prohibitive to industry
since they usually maintain a
competent engineering staff to
do work which the code desig-


nates to be done by an inspector.
Mayor Pate then suggested that
a committee be appointed to go
over the code 'and a state code
drawing out the portions that
would provide necessary protec-
tion to the home owner and not
work a hardship on those who
maintain competent electrical
staffs. Pate suggested a commit-
tee of Commissioners Sexton and
Bob Holland and Ferrell Allen,
Jr., an engineer of St. Joe Paper
Company. The committee was to
have met yesterday afternoon, to
work out an agreeable code. :
Graham said he felt the county
would adopt any reasonable code
and preferred that it be the same
as one agreed to by both the City
of Port St. Joe and Wewahitchka.
The two Boards agreed to try
and work out an agreement be-
fore Tuesday night, when the
County Board meets, so they can
adopt it then.


Officially,. it's labeled a "bas-
ketball" game, but any .resem-
blance between what you will see
tonight in the Port St. Joe High
School Colliseum and basketball'
will be purely coincidental.
Tonight at 8:00 p.in. the Gulf
County LIw Enforceiient Asso-
ciation "Pigs" will meet the Port-
St. Joe Jaycee "Bushy Tails", in
a basketball game, all for sweet
charity.
The. "Pigs" will feature such
cage stars as James "Red"
Graves, Ken Murphy, and maybe
even "ace" M. A. Kelly will.
make an appearance. They will


be managed by Police Chief H.
W..Griffin.
The Jaycee "Bushy Tails" will
be led by their president, five
foot, six Robert Montgomery and
will feature those'aces of the
hardwood, Robert Nedley "Light-
nin" John- Howard, Joe "Feath-
-ers" Parrott and the center, Vir-
gil Dariells .
All -proceeds from the game
will be used in charitable work
in this Irea by both the Law En-
forcement officials and the Jay-
cees.
Admission to the fiasco will be
$1.00 each for everyone.


Young Man of the Year


Higdon Swatts, right, received the Port St.
Joe Jaycees Outstanding Young Man award at the
annual awards banquet of the club last Saturday
night. The presentation -was made by Rev. Mil-
lard Spikes, one of the judges making the OYM
selection.
Swatts was chosen for the honor because of -
his outstanding work over the past three years
with the annual Christmas parade. Rev. Spikes,
in making his presentation, noted that Swatts


was one young man who did those extra things
which made him outstanding with no fanfare or
search for acclaim on his part. "He sees a job
that needs doing and does it", Spikes said. Spikes,
who is Swatts' pastor in the First. United Meth-
odist Church, said that he is an outstanding work-
er in the church "always working behind the
scenes with nobody noticing that he is even
around%" *.,

EDITORIALS...


Topic of Conversation


We were the topic of conversation in Atlanta, Geor-
gia and Tallahassee last week. We weren't alone in being
talked about, but we knew the conversation was aimed
right at us, along with several other million people in this
nation.
Vice-President Spiro Agnew worked us over in At-
lanta when he said we just didn't understand the situa-
tion when we opposed revenue sharing by the Federal
Government with the states and municipalities. That may
be. We tend to be against what.we don't know about to
keep ourselves.out of trouble. All we know about "revenue
sharing",is that there is some plan being devised to take
part of the taxes collected by the Federal Government and
give it to the states and cities throughout the land to ease
their financial burdens. This is all we've seen in the papers
on. the matter, so ,it's all we know about it,
On the surface this tells us that the Federal Govern-
Sniment is going to collect a dollar in taxes, let it'roam
around through the various channels and fifty cents of it
come back to- where it was collected from.
Wecan't see sharing revenue that isn't there by taking"
money the long way around until there is even less there.
With a projected deficit forl the coming year of anywhere
from,20 to 29 billion dollars, we fail to see where the Fed-


eral Government is going to get money .to "share" unless
they just take iore. Because we are so skeptical, the
Vice-President was talking about us.
We were also the topic of conversation in Tallahassee
at Florida State University by Jane Fonda. Jane stated
that there were some people in this nation who were so
blind to the fact 'that revolution was coming that they
hadn't even gone out to purchase a hand gun tp protect
themselves with. This statement hit us right, between
the eyes. We'have to admit, we don't believe revolution is
coming; especially froni those who can't seem to work any-
thing but their jaw muscles and from whom all the' talk
of revolution seems to be coming.
Nor have we rushed out to purchase a hand gun to
protect ourselves from the baddies. We'll just have to
rely on a shotgun which was purchased. for hunting, but
which will have' to double for a defensive weapon should
the occasion ever arise when we need one. Frankly, wb
had much rather trust the shotgun to keep enemies at a
distance rather -than a hand gun.
We can'-t figure people like Jane out. Are they really
worried about this nation falling apart by the shallow'rea-
sons they give or are they just talking up the hand gun
sales in order to get a'no-gun law passed?


Take Drunks Off Highways


U. S. Transportation Sepretary John A. Volpe takes
the position the highway safety problem can't be solved
until stronger measures are taken to remove the habit-
ually drunken driver from the highways. He may be
right.
-There has been a' stepped Ip, nationwide campaign
in recent months against ted drunken driver. The public
is reminded constantly that alcohol is involved in 50 to
'60 per cent of highway fatalities.
The highway safety people aren't aiming the cam-
paign It social drinkers. They want to get at the prob-
1em drinker, the .pe they say is the"'worst menace on the
highway. *..
Volpe says it,,is.a fact that seven percent of the
4riverm. who, cause 50 per cent of the deaths, can be identi-
fied, apprehended and controlled. But even if they are
'identified, not much is being done about keeping them off
the highways.
There is no excuse for not sweeping them off the roads
right now, Volpe says. He gives the highest possible pri-
ority to control of drunk drivers.
r; And he takes the position that the job isn't as diffi-

Oregonians are proud of their

it that way. Consequently, they
have taken steps to discourage
would-be settlers and industri-

promotion programs conducted


by chambers of commerce and
tourist agencies have been dis-
continued. '
Oregon's governor, in his talks
to various organizations, 'makes
it clear that his state,' while glad
to welcome visitors, is not. en-
couraging homeseekers or new

cult as some people think. Habitual drunks are well
known in their communities, he says. "They are bad em-
ployment risks; they are well known to their neighbors,
to welfare agencies arid to local traffic courts."
He proposes selective licensing and stiffer enforce-
muent to weed them out. To get the job done, he suggests
enlisting the support of the pace-setters, opinion makers
and trend-setters in our local communities.
It is a job that can't be accomplished by exhortations
or money from Washington, he says. And he is right in
that, of course; this is basically a job for local govern-
ment. .
When we stop tQ consider that alcoholic drivers de-
stroyed six times as much property last year as was lost
in all the robberies, arsons and burglaries put together,
not to mention the deaths, then we can get a clearer pic-'
ture of just how big this problem really is. We can better
understand why the Transportation Secretary and so many
others are concerned. "
What we must do now is get our local communities
concerned enough to apply the laws already on the books
to force the alcoholic to stop driving.

areas and frown 'on developers
who would bring more people in-
to the state.
A recent editorial in the Eu-
gene Register-Guard points to
Florida and California as horri-
ble examples of what so-called
progress is doing to them.
They see Florida losing 'its
charm, beauty and other advan-
tages just as a good part of Cali,
fornia' has. They point- to the
ever increasing smog, the pollut-
ed rivers and streams, destruc-
tion of farms and forests to make
way for bigger towns and cities.
'They, cite the problems, waste
and garbage disposal, contaminat-
ed water supplies, waterfront
erosion and the like.
The question Floridians have to
face is \,"How much can Florida
grow and develop before it de-
stroys itself?" Florida's popula-
tion increased 35 per cent. in the
last decade and is now 6.6 mil-
,lion. It's chambers of' Commerce
and developers continue to seek
new settlers and more industry.
We are told that when Disney
World begins operating we will
attract thousands of additional
tourists and visitors, many of
whom will decide to become per-
manent residents. To accomo-
date the steadily increasing pop-
ulation and increased number of
visitors we will have to find
money for new highways, more
schools, more sewerage disposal
plants, more garbage disposal
units, more water, more power,
more welfare, more jobs, more
housing and more everything..
As a former Californian, I pre-
dicted 20 years ago what would
happen to Florida if she didn't
mend her ways. Now it is hap-
pening.
What we need is signs on our

Letter to


the Editor



Editor, The Star,
Port St. Joe, Florida
Dear Mr. Ramsey,
I received The Star in today's
mail as I do every week. I read
the part where the Jaycees are
asking citizens of Port St. Joe to
cast a vote for the Outstanding
Young Man of the Year.
You might not believe this, but
my Daddy says he is only 39 (and
holding!). So therefore it is hard
to believe I am 20-
1 know Daddy is not under 30,
but in my book, he will always
be in my heart as a "distinguish-
ed young man".
I don't know how old Daddy is,
but I will tell you and all the
people in St. Joe that he will al-
ways have my vote-
Sincerely,
Karen (King) Nastally
(Ed note-Dear Karen, I read
your completely unbiased nomi-
nation for Young Man of the
Year, nominating your father,
Dr. Bob King, tooth dentist.
Honey, I hate to be the bearer
of bad news-it's almost like tel-
ling a kid there is no Santa Claus
-but your daddy Ais indeed over
39. He has "held" entirely too
many of them to even be consid-
ered as Port St. Joe's Young
Man of the Year. The age limita-
tion is 35 years of age and not
30, but even this easing of the
restrictions completely eliminates
your daddy.
I hope 'you will forgive us this
unpleasant task of breaking the
bad news to you, but it just had
to be done sooner or later. Like
many of us, your daddy is just
too old.)

The report is out that preacher Millard Spikes is turning back
his salary to the Methodist Church so he can be allowed to stay here
in Port St. Joe where he can go fishing regularly and frequently.
The preacher does like to fish for things other than men. Of
course, he does his share of fishing for men too.
He's so addicted to fishing that it affects him sort of like nar.
cotics affect an addict. Fishing has grabbed Preacher .Spikes to
the point where he can't read a gas gauge or a thermometer.
The preacher and Tom Fleming Smith (and I blame Tom Flem-
ing for part of this, because is a fisherman from way back) took
off fishing last Thursday in the cold spell we were having at the
time. They went to Depot Creek and were wetting a hook when
Smith decided they ought to cross Lake Wimico and go to Indian
Bayou. "How much gas do we have", he asked the preacher. Spikes
cocked his good eye at the gauge and reported, "we have plenty,
at least three quarters of a tank" when, in truth, they only had a
quarter tank.
Off they roared for Indian Bayou, noting all the while that
there was only one other boat out in the cold fishing. About the
time they arrived at the spot where they wanted to fish, the motor
sputtered and died out of gas! By this time, the preacher was
able to read the gauge correctly. So they broke out the paddles
and started paddling from Indian Bayou to White City for gas.
About the time they were one third of the way up the canal, the
other boat they had seen earlier came by and stopped. Upon ex-
plaining their predicament, the other fellow remarked he didn't
have enough gas to share or to pull their boat to White City, and
inade ready to crank up and go off leaving our two heroes to their
"misery sticks".
Tom Smith happened to remark, "Well preacher, back to the
paddle". The operator in the other boat perked up at this and said,
"Are you a preacher? I'm a preacher, too". Then he proceeded to
pour. a:ffee can of gas out of his tank for the paddlers. A coffee
can of gas to get them six miles.
Preacher Spikes said he didn't know the other "gentleman" and
didn't find out if he was Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, or what.
All he knew was that he wouldn't share more of his gas and he still
had to paddle about three miles to the landing. The other preacher
didn't send help, either. These preachers are rough on one another.
Reminds one of the man set upon by thieves beside the road and
not even the righteous man would lend help. Here we have a min-
ister trying to make himself more like the Apostle Peter and he
can't even get assistance from a fellow purveyor of the word.
Preacher Spikes is now taking lessons on how to read a gas
gauge and Tom Fleming Smith has purchased a gas can to carry
along on future fishing trips.

The latest issue of 'T"Family Circle" magazine says: "The new
woman is really the old ladyin disguise"!
You wouldn't kid a fella, would ya?

One of the most interesting
drives in Florida is the 165
mile, sight filled journey from
Miami to Key West.
Many a tourist will boast of
record shattering speeds in
reaching Key West, but the
Keys should be savored and
enjoyed. A person could spend
a week driving from Miami to
the Southernmost tip of the
continental United States and
still not see it all.
During the journey from
mainland Miami to Key West,
the traveller crosses 42 bridges
from 37 feet long to one bridge
which is just a few feet short of
seven miles in length. On your
left is the Atlantic ... and on
your right is the GulfI '
In the middle of this network
of islands on Lower Matecumbe
Key is Port Antigua, a newly
developed community of over
300 homesites, and the site of
some of the best fishing in the
world. Over 600 varieties of
fish-from the exotic to the pan
type-abound in the clear, un-

-polluted waters surrounding
the homesites.
< Port. Antigua has one of the
few sandy beaches in the entire
Florida Keys. In addition to
swimming and fishing, scuba
diving, sailing and shelling are
great all along the Keys.
* At Key Largo, the first island
in the chain, is the Keys Wel-
come Station, a must for every
visitor. Here the staff offers
advice ab6ut what to see'and
'has complete information on
motel reservations. There are
accommodations for every price
and taste.
One of the highlights of the
Keys drive is a visit to Penne-
kamp State Park, the only un-
derwater park in the United
States. It lies in the Atlantic
Ocean just off Key Largo.
Large glass bottomed boats
take you on a tour of the park
and the reefs.
People come to Port Antigua
looking for a vacation or retire-
ment home in one of the few un-
spoiled paradises remaining in
America today.

Remember, scalping is for the
Indians, or the professionals. So,
scalp with reservation or you might
turn your lawn back into a sand
bed again. If you have already made
this mistake, then consider planting
a new lawn.


WHAT TO PLANT
There is no ideal grass. The
zoysias have won acclaim for tex-
ture, but require much care and
good soil. Centipede is "poor
man's" grass that does well on
sandy soil with little fertilizer and
few imowindgs.
,.St. Augustine rates good, but is
ravaged by chinch bugs. Common
Bermuda is fine textured, tolerates
salty spray but requires much
work and. considerable fertilizer.
The Bahia grasses form a loose
turf that takes constant mowing
to keep seed stalks down.
Try Floratine St. Augustine. It
was developed by the Florida Agri-
cultural Experiment Stations and
is available from most turf growers.

Notes Direct From The


Miami Merchandise


Mart

Dear Friends:
This is written while in Miami attending the Spring and Sum-
mer market. A special Show and Merchandise display was held by
the -Southern Apparel Exhibitors.. Of course, Mrs. B. does the
footwork and shops diligently, deliberately and thoroughly among
the hundreds of attractive and luxurious booth displays. It is
indeed a stimulating and rich experience even though it draws the
sap and slows the snap from one's head to toes. The Florida wear-
ables bought just for you (selected with utmost care) will be roll-
ing soon in Boyles back door. We predict it'll be taken out the
front door with gusto and smiling faces. Just keep your eye on
BOYLES in '71 for the most attractive and thrilling apparel and
footwear for the family ever shown in Port St. Joe!
We decided to spend another week since daughter Glenna (and
our three grandchildren) live in Miami Springs. Yes, it's a full
house at the William J. Holten's residence when the eight of us
tuck in! No, not a dull moment from dawn to later than dusk!
The comments below concern a few of the SPACIOUS STORES
and MAMMOTH SHOPPING CENTERS we visited in the Miami area:
It's a most interesting experience UNLESS you might be looking
for some special item or two Better -Look Out Thenl You
walk, walk and walk, just occasionally seeing an employee busy
putting up stock or hanging over a counter engaged intently in con-
versation with one or more standing, employees. Most of them
dislike being interrupted by a customer inquiry. THEN not
one in ten can give you the information you need. This rural and
humble writer GAVE UP after five or six (in five or six cold and
indifferent stores). Frankly, he'd just as soon try to shop in the
proverbial Wilderness of Judea! However, we partially understand
the numerous and difficult problems facing the management of the
giant stores in all- shopping stores. Our wish is that all may have
prosperity and success It's just that NO ONE could ran fast
enough toget one of those monsters off on us! (No one would think
of-trying either!) Well we wound up doing our little shopping (in-
cluding a few toys, etc., for the grandchildren) at a warm, friendly
home owned variety store only a block from the Holten home, in
the small Miami Springs shopping district. We were given prompt
attention by the owner along with an assistant. We came out happy
,and refreshed in direct contrast to the exasperating experience
in the Big Time, so-called BEg Value shopping centers!! We breath-
ed a prayer of gratefulness for the little, but BRAVE independent
merchants. BOYLES was included. Seriously, America cannot
afford to lose this friendly efficient SERVICE with a HEART, even
though it fails to cover the entire field in many instances. Shop-
ping would be far more difficult and regimented for millions of
common -people like us. We, who are small merchants i'hould pe
refreshed, renewed and inspired towards greater goals in our ef-
forts to serve and save (in many ways) our loyal and faithful patrons.
Citizens, friends and customers THESE ARE OUR SINCERE
sentiments. What they may be, or not be worth, is not important.
YOU are the judges.

And, speaking of demands that

that our wood supply will have to

The big question, of' course, is
to perform this gigantic task thru

Freeman Says New Products Being

Introduced. Promises Good Future


Robert Freeman, manager of
-Basic Magnesia said tbing. look
good in the future for the local
plant, which manufactures mag-
nesia oxide from sea water and
dolomite lime. Freeman was
speaking to the Port St. Joe Ro-
tary Club last Thursday, when
he said the needs of the parent
company in Cleveland, Ohio, was
^ra pretty good sign that the plant
'would operate regularly.
Freeman was quick to pint out
qtat all wasn't rosy, however.
Full poeration depends on the
quality of products now being
manufactured and of new pro-
dudts now undergoing experimen-
tation at the plant. "An almost
certain steel strike this year
could affect our operations also",
Freeman said. The products from
the plant are used mostly in the,
manufacture of furnace' liners for
steel mills.. .
Freeman said the plant has

Trees Improve
Our Environment
GAINESVILLE Trees are an
important factor in improving our
environment, according to Exten-
sion Forester Tony Jensen, Florida
Cooperative Extension Service.
Trees, whether in rural forests
or in city parks or hedgerows, make
valuable contributions of, many
kinds, he explains. In addition to
providing shade and beauty and
cutting down on noise pollution,
they also improve the quality of
the air by removing carbon dioxide
and giving off oxygen.
Mulch formed by leaves and twigs
helps to conserve water for drink-
ing, domestic and agricultural pur-
poses, as well 'as for recreation and
water power.
Jensen points out the forests are
essential for good hunting and
fishing.
In certain areas without forests,
water would be too warm for good
fishing. And trees add to the quan-
tity and quality of wild game.
Tree buds and fruit, and even
young trees themselves, serve as
food for many birds and animals.
Many types of game use older
trees for cover aid concealment.
Forests also provide a beautiful
and often essential setting for
many outdoor recreation activities.
"It will pay us in many ways to
manage our wooded areas wisely
both rural forests and city shade
trees," Jensen says. "Without our
trees, we'd have less air and water,


a less enjoyable environment,; and
fewer outdoor activities."


sea shells to dolomite as a source
of lime for their operations. "The
dolomite costs more, Freeman
said, but he pointed out that
there were economies realized in
operation' which offset some of
the extra costs.
Freeman said the plant is ex-
perimenting with by-products
from its plant, which he said
would determine future growth.
The main product being made at
.the plant is a trade chemical
"Magox" which is used in agricul-
ture. "We're trying to decide
now how far to go with this pro-
duct", Freeman said.


By and large, Freeman said
the outlook for the plant is bet-
ter this year than last, and if new
I


products can be brought up to
standard, the plant should have a
good year. i
