iows in the air, with the bottom
iw' of seats, placing' spectators
ven feet above te th playing
oeld. The bleachers will 6oi an
additional six rows in the air, be-
tween the 35 yard lanes, with a
press box placed at- the top of
she structure. '
The club has.enough money on
"tehd to buildthe foundation and

towbuild the bleacher framework.
'Plans are toplace pro-cast pro-
stressed concrete bleacher stabs
on the block framework with
possibly a wooden or aluminum
seat on ,the concrete depenAing.,
on how the money holds out'
"We're starting onfaith", Rob-
arts said, ."because.we don't have
all the money yet. We're going
to .put on projects and try to
borrow some of the money soo
we can have the belachers' fin-
ished by football season.":'
The Club's. plans t shown oight
b0omh, under the' bleachers ,to
S ue used for, concessions; rest
rooms and as a meeting place for
the teams at half time.
Cost of the new seats will run
in the neighborhood of $20,000.
The Club has receivedpermission
of the school board to attach an
extra 25c to the price of theOot-
all tickets to pay off any mon-
ey smhch has to be borrowed for

Like the football stadium it-
;self, the construction of the.
bleachers will be a community-

terback Club planning many ac-
tivities over the next 'few years
to help pay for this major in-
vestment.

Miss McLane said the Hospital
has been lax in these areas, in
the past, but patient load and
obstructions for treatment by

timated flow and rise of the,
plant.

met the approval of.,the Commis-
sion, assessed St. Joe Paper Com-
pany with $35,040.21 of the en-

Five Vehicles Involved In Three


Acdents During the Past Week-

I Five Vehicles were involved in
three traffic accidents, resulting
in an estimated $2,300 in dam-
ages during the past week in the.
Port St. ,Joe area, according to
Florida Highway Patrol trooper
Ken Murphy. No injuries were
reported in either of the three _
accidents.
The first in a series of wrecks
occurred last Wednesday night
at about 8:00 p.m. when a wheel
,came off a loaded pulp wood
truck as it was approaching the -
Eastern .city limits of Port- St. -
Joe. The truck, driven by Alfred
Yarrell, Jr.,. of Port St. Joe,
swerved when the wheel came
off and crossed to the opposite
side of .the highway, where it
turned over, spilling its load of
wood.
A 1970 sedan driven by Paul
William Gant of Port St. Joe was -
meeting the truck at the time of I ,,-
the accident and struck the wood
as it spilled onto the road. "' -

Fire Damages hIside

Of Dairyburger

Two fires were reported to thi
Port St. Joe Volunteer Fire De
apartment during the past week
The first alarm came Sunda:
afternoon about 3:00 p.m., whei
an unattended trash fire at Sim
mons Bayou spread to the nearby
woods burning'several acres be
fore finally being stopped by thE
Port St. Joe department and the
Florida Forest Service.
The second blaze occurred
shortly after midnight Sunday
when the Dairyburger building
on Highway 98 and Third. Street
was gutted by fire.
According to Fire Chief R. H.
Ellzey, the blaze appeared tc
have started at a deep fat fryez
in the place of business. A range
hood over the fryer funneled
much of the flame out of the
building and prevented further
damage.
Even with this stroke of luck,
the building was almost totally
destroyed inside by fire and
smoke, which ruined the walls
and ceiling.
Harry Murphy, owner of the
business, said he felt much of
the equipment could be salvaged.

Week Of Concern


In a joint resolution passed unanimously by both
houses, the 92nd Congress has designated this week-
March 2-, 1971 as "National Week of Concern for Prison-
ers of War/Missing in Action". Sixty-five members of
the Senate and 170 Congressmen co-sponsored the legis-
lation.
The dates of March 21 through 27 are significant as
they mark the anniversary of the time the first U.S. ser-
viceman was captured in North Vietnam six years ago.
fToday, nearly 1,600 young Americans are held in brutal
captivity by the savage rulers of Communist occupied
North Vietnam.
Senator William Brock of Tennessee, in bringing the
resolution to the floor of the Senate, declared, "Many,
many thousands of Americans are looking forward to
this especially significant week to speak out in one voice
to try to persuade the North Vietnamese to abide, by the
Geneva Convention in their treatment of our men.
"I would point out that if there are those who ques-
tion the strength of character of this Nation, they have


only to lobk at these wives and families for an examp
of hope and integrity and love of Nation that would bet
us all," he said. "We must not let these families we
alone, without help."
Let churches, schools, veterans groups, civic orgai
zations'and all individuals speak out, loud and clear. D
mand that the Communists abide by the Geneva Conve
tion. Demand that the International Red Cross be allow
to visit the prison camps and bring food, medicine al
clothing to the captives. Demand the immediate relea
of those who are ill and wounded. Demand that the wive
parents and children of the American POWs be allow
to communicate with their loved ones who in vain ha
waited for even a scrap of information as to the welfa
of our men.
Make your demands known to Dictator Ton D
Thang, Hanoi, North Vietnam; to President Richard Ni
on, the White House, Washington, D.C.;, and to the N
tional League of Families of American Prisoners MissiF

Spring officially came on the scene Sunday of this
week, to give promise of warmer, days, flowers blooming,
grass growing, fish jumping and the blood to start pump-
ing 'faster. .
We note throughout the City that the street depart-
ment has its entire force at work preparing for a color-
ful Spring and early summer by pruning, fertilizing and
tending to flowers growing in road medians, in utility
areas and parks. Top dressing has been applied to grass
in the median of four-laned Fifth Street and the City's
green-thumbed Joe Badger has been coaxing his flowers
back to life.
All of this bee-hive 'of activity on the part of the
City-crews is designed to make Port St. Joe a prettier
. place for its people and its visitors. Malcolm Johnson, a
naturalist of renown' in Northwest Florida visited Port
St. Joe a few years back and exclaimed over the flowers
the City annually plants .. especially on Fifth Street.
The editor of the Tallahassee Democrat stated that
Port St. Joe was a very lucky small city to have someone
concerned .with the way the city looked.
All of this brings to mind a "hand-out" piece we re-
ceived this week from/ Tallahassee, on the subject of litter
on state highways. It might shock you to know that dur-
ing the year 1970, every highway in the State of Florida


Too LateTo Classify
I By Russell Kay


I read an article in Reader's
Digest recently entitled, "It
Pays to Increase Your Worry
Power." It set me to thinking
on the subject of worry.
I asked myself, "Am I a wor-
rier?" I decided I wasn't. I used
to worry a lot more when I was
younger. But I learned that there
is no sense in worrying about
something you can't change or do
anything about.
Anyone prone to worry is in
a bad fix. Worry and imagina-
tion go together. Without a vi-
vid imagination a person could-
n't get very far as a professional
worrier.


My wife is a worrier. She wor-
ries if the cat. fails to come in
for breakfast. Maybe he .was hit
by a car, or a dog killed him, or
he was poisoned.
I read the papers and listen to
the news on radio and television.
But I seldom worry. I know that
there isn't much I can do about
the threat of the atomic bomb,
pollution, the increasing crime
rate or the race question. I some-
how believe that all these pro-
blems will be worked out sooner
or later. I do what little I can.
I write letters to congressmen,
pay my taxes and try to be a

Some folks read in the paper
that a youngster drowned while

they vow they will never take

They see on television where a
man fell off a ladder and got a

Bombarded with pollution pro-

hesitate to take a drink of water
for fear it will bring on some hor-

They wouldn't think of flying,
although statistics prove it is
the safest form of travel. They
sit, in the car clutching the arm

Cattle Fattening

Promises Rosy

Future for Gulf

"Gulf County has a promising
future, not only in small grains
including corn and soy beans,
but in the winter feeding of
South Florida cattle for fatten-
ing purposes", David Carl Gas-
ple kin told the Rotary Club last
fit Thursday.
ait "We have experimented this
past winter in Gulf County, with
S growing rye, barley and clover
for fattening South Florida
)e- calves, rather than ship them to
Mn- the mid-West for fattening, and
ed have met with success", Gaskin
nd said.
se The speaker pointed out that
es, the South Florida grasses don't
ed have the nutrients to fatten the
cattle to market weights, nor do
they have cold enough tempera-
re ,tures in the winter months to
grow the traditional "fattening
grassess". Gaskin said this is the
uc reason the cattle are shipped out
x- for fattening, rather than ship-
'a- ping in the grains to do the job.
ng "We have found we have
1g- enough cold weather here to
raise the winter wheat, rye, bar-
ley and clover here in Northwest
Florida to do the job and realize
a nice profit in fattening beef".
Gaskin pointed out that this
area of Florida has another. ad-
vantage over the traditional fat-
tening areas of Texas, Oklahoma
and Kansas. "Out in these areas,"
he said, "you can only put one
?er 350 pound cow to five acres of
nk grazing cover. Here in North
ile Florida we can put five 350
,ur pound cows to one acre of graz-
nd ing cover".
Gaskin said that supplement-
ing the recently-introduced soy
iw. bean and small grain crops with
a a. cattle fattening operations will
give the county a year-round ag-
ricultural economy.
ow "We have had our problems
ng with the grains", he said, "every-
thing from too hot a temperature
for corn to too much water for
ng the soy beans." Gaskin promised
rn- that the new agriculture econo-
ay. my would change the face of
his Gulf County in the next few
te- years however- because, "We'll
harness our water problem and
ice develop grains to withstand the
ich temperature".
Gaskin said that already-great
strides have been made in small
by grain farming. "Don't judge our
he- success by what you see beside
his the highway between here and
to Wewahitclka. You wouldn't rec-
ognize the old swamp flats in
the area away from the high-
way."
Gaskin said that in the early'
pen. phases of grain introduction, "all
often kinds of records have been set,
ften from the worst to the best".

If I were a well man, I could sit here at this linotype
and write one of my longer dissertations for this space
based on just the happenings of last week. But, in keep-
ing up with "the Joneses", I have the flu or I should
say, I'm just getting over the flu, which is almost as lMad
as having it. When one is getting over the flu (or having
it) there isn't much ambition present to write columns,
or anything else for that matter.
And this was such an historic week!
During this past week, number one son and his wife
presented us with a grandson. Also during this week,
a favored uncle died. A favored brother-in-law challenged
our claim as the champion relaxer. And, a daughter rea-
lized a 10-year ambition and bought herself a horse, only
to find it was almost ready to foal, so she still couldn't
ride it. A fellow ought to be able to work up a whole page
on material like that.
The grandson wasn't our first, but we thought it 9
would be the first to cost us a son in the borning. Ray
tried to pretend everything was just as it was every day,
but he's acted like he- had stepped in a fire ant nest for
the past month. After six children and two previous 4
grandsons, we're almost accustomed to it almost.
Since most of our uncles live in Oklahoma and Ar-
kansas, we seldom see them. Since we left that area at
age 13, we haven't seen any of them too many times in
our life. Still it's a sad shock when one dies. This par-
ticular uncle was one I especially enjoyed listening to, the
few times I've seen him. He was a college professor and
sounded .like it. He was an interesting man.
As if all the rest of the week wasn't enough, what
with birth, death and being ill to contend with, we also
had to contend with a smart-aleck brother-in-law who is
trying to claim our relaxing championship. Brother-in-
law Jack Williamson from out in Spokane, Washington
does have plenty of experience of relaxing. After all he
spent 20 years in the Air Force before retiring a year or
two ago, and he has plenty of practice at relaxing. But,
now that he is off the government payroll and has had
to go to work for a living, I figured he'd come apart at
the seams. But, apparently he is still hanging in there.
He'll never make it to first base taking over my cham-
pionship, though. He's good at playing poker, and a per-
son can't be good at two things at once.
Then the last item. Daughter, Catherine has wanted .
a horse ever since she was 10 years old. The first of the
year she went to work and the first thing she bought was
that horse she's been wanting so long. She bought a Ten-
nessee Walker, or Trotter, or something like that and put
her up at Carl Lee Williamson's stables. Carl Lee cast
his experienced eye on the horse and said, "That horse is
pregnant". A check with the vet, and sure enough, Carl
Lee was right. Any day now the horse will foal, and so
in the meantime, Catherine gets to care for her without
the remuneration of a nice canter or two every once in a
while.

This past week two teen agers
in Panama City were convicted
of a felony possession and
selling dope.
The following remarks quote
the statement made by a district
judge to two youths (not the two
in Panama City) convicted of a
felony before passing- sentence
on them. The judge's lecture con-
tains a message of such timeli-
ness that we reprint it without
additional editorial comment.
"You come from good homes,
both of you. Yet now you have
been convicted of a felony a
crime for which you may be sent
to the penitentiary. In this case
I do not have to send you to the

With Galaxle 500... the quiet Ford with LTD looks and
comfort. A little less luxury, a lot lower price.

give you a parole. But even if
you never see the inside of a
penitentiary or jail, you will not
have escaped the penalties of
your crime. The record of your
conviction will be here as long
as the courthouse stands. No
amount of good conduct in the
future can ever erase it.
"Next year, or 10 years from

if you are ever called to be a
witness in any court of law, some
lawyer will point his finger at
you and ask: 'Have you ever been
convicted of a felony? You will
hang your head and admit that
you have, for if you deny it, the
records of these proceedings will
be brought from the vaults and
read to the jury. The question
will be asked for the sole pur-
pose of casting doubt on your
testimony. Convicted felons are
not believed as readily as other
persons.

chance to work in one of those

America, and you will apply for

will allow you to become a resi-
dent. Your world is so much
smaller than it was. Someday you
may seek a position in the civic
service of your state or nation.
On the application blank you will
find this question: 'Have you
ever been convicted of a felony?'
Your truthful answer will bar
you from appointment. An un-
truthful answer will be detected
because appointments are made
only after investigation. The re-
cord is here to be found by any-
one interested.

Have You Had Your Annual Health


Check Up Yet?., It Helps Fight Cancer


Have'you had your annual health
check-up yet, Mr. and Mrs. Port St.
Joe? Do you know cancer's Seven
Warning Signals?.
These questions will be asked
about 45 million times across the
country and about 10,000 times
here in Gulf County, according -to
Mrs. Gerald Sullivan, Crusade
Chairman for the American Cancer
Society, as she told of the special
leaflets for its 1971 educational
and fund raising Crusade begin-
ning April 1.
The leaflet squarely puts the
question of health safeguards up
to each individual. Its aim is to
persuade those 37.6 percent of
Americans who have never had a
check-up to go for one. It lists the
warning signals of cancer and
urges a visit to a physician if one
discovers he or she has one. For
easy recognition they are listed

Tax Case Could Affect Timber Owners


A property tax case which ul-.
timately could cost the St. Joe
Paper Company and other tim-


ber producers millions of dollars
was taken; under consideration
last week by the State Supreme


Court.
During arguments, St. Johns
County Tax Assessor Harold
Wayne cautioned that a ruling
in favor of the firm-which owns
one million acres in Florida and
Georgia-could .wreck Florida's
ad. valorem tax system.
St. Joe is appealing lower court
rulings upholding Wayne's re-
moval of preferential "greenbelt
law" agricultural exemptions on
500 acres of riverfront property
in St. Johns County.
St. Joe attorney, William L.
Durden, Jacksonville, said the
firm was treated, unfairly when


Wayne raised the assessment to
$539,400 in 1968. It is part of a
larger, 4,300-acre tract assessed
at only $251.480 in 1967.
"A lot of people can remember
when the land in north Florida
wasn't on the tax rolls at all,"
said Durden. "The companies
were invited to 'come in and buy
the land, build pulp mills, and
put people on the payrolls. They
did this."
A central issue is whether the
500 acres of unmanaged land
bounding the St. Johns River was
held primarily for timber use or
for speculation. Tied into that is


the question of whether unman-
aged woodlands qualify for the
"greenbelt law" exemptions.
Only three millions of 16 mil-
lion acres of timberland in Flor-
ida is managed, according to the
Florida Forestry Association,
and the ruling in this case should
affect some 93,000 landowners.
"Evidence shows," said Delbert
Gibbs, co-counsel with Wayne,
"no use of the land for ten years:
no cuttings, no bull-dozing, no
forestry-just mother nature let-
ting it grow. In fact, it is deter-
iorating because of the failure

to cut."
Tax Assessor Wayne said a rul-
ing in favor of St. Joe, "would
mean that anybody who bought
' land with timber on it was en-
titled to a greenbelt exemption."
Gibbs said the riverfront land
could, sell for "a hundred dol-
lars a front foot for first rate,
$50,000 homes."
Fred H. Kent, Jr., another
Jacksonville attorney represent-
ing St. Joe, said the firm bought
the land in 1942 solely for timber
purposes. He said there have
been limited cuttings from the
land, but stressed it was covered
with merchantablee timber" and
therefore met the test.

for speculation if there's any
speculation, it has been done by

(the tax assessor) not us", Kent
added.
He also charged Wayne was
applying a double standard by
denying greenbelt exemptions to
the 500 acres west of State Road
13, while granting it to the re-
maining 3,800 acres in the "Hal-
lows Tract" east of the highway.
Both were used for the same pur-
pose, he said.
Wayne argued St. Joe had cut
a limited amount of timber in
the larger portion, but "no
stumpage" was in sight on the
smaller portion.
The court gave no indication
of how or when it would rule,
although Crief Justice B. K. Rob-
erts observed the greenbelt law
was interpreted so broadly by
the court that it once upheld low-
er assessments for a low-produc-
ing, 40-year-old coconut grove se-
questered on Key Biscayne.
He said three dairy farmers
were once forced out of business
because of escalating land assess-
ments, and the greenbelt law was
designed as "an indirect subsidy"
to the farmer.

the total litter problem, however.
"The average amount of lit-
ter that accumulated annually on
any mile of highway would ap-
proximate 27,000 pieces of which
beer and soft drink containers
comprise 20 per cent of the to-
tal litter," the report said.
"Twenty-seven thousand piec-
es of litter per mile multiplied
by the total number of miles of
interstate, 4-lane primary, 2-lane
primary, 2-lane secondary and
urban highways .existing in the


State of Florida equals a lot of
litter," the report understated.
A 1970 law required the de-
partment to study litter and re-
port back t othe 1971 Legislature.
Without' proposing specific
laws, the department said the
following five-point program "ap-
pears to be an effective approach
for solving or minimizing Flor-
ida's litter problem:
Continue and expand exist-
ing anti-litter educational pro-
grams. '
Strengthen litter laws, with
special emphasis on laws pre-
venting litter' of waterways.
"None of the present laws ex-
tend. authority for litter viola-
tions in fresh water bodies ex-
cept if the fresh water lake or
stream lies within, or adjacent to
a, state park", the report said.
Develop methods to discour-
age use of non-returnable, n.On-
degradable .beverage containers.
In a separate section, the report '
suggested the possibility of a
non-returnable container tax.
"This tax would' tend to dis4
courage use of one-way contain-
ers," it said. "If they do become


litter, however, it would provide
a supplemental source of reve-
nue for removal and correct dis-
posal."
Encourage development of
collection and disposal systems
to dispose of waste materials that
would otherwise become litter.
Recycle waste products to
reclaim reusable resources.
The department said it had
examined records of littering ar-
rests and found little effective
enforcement of litter laws.
"Apparently, there is not much
incentive for the law officer to
enforce the litter laws," it- said.
One step that could make it a
little easier to make litter arrests
would be to hold the owner ire-
sponsible for anything tossed out
of his car, the department said.
"Conviction after arrest- is
somewhat difficult because the
arresting officer must accurately
determine the person throwing
the article from the car," it said.
