Should St. Joe Paper be struck Glidden would be forced to close down since they depend on SJPC for steam. The Papermakers Union gave the company 10 days notice of a pending strike which becomes effective at midnight tonight if an agreement cannot be reached. Union members met last night to consider the latest offer of the company and compare it with their requests. Federal mediator, L e 1 a n d Dean said Tuesday that some progress in reaching agreement was made both Monday and Tuesday. In anticipation of a possible strike call today, St. Joe Paper Company began the 24 hour pro- cess of shutting down last night.

Taylor ;i "Outstanding Young Man" Port St..Joe High School Athle- tic Director and head football coach, Wayne Taylor, has been chosen for inclusion in the 1971 edition of OUTSTANDING YOUNG MEN OFAMEDICA, ac- cording to the First United Methodist Church. Nominated by the organization earlier this year, Taylor was chosen for the annual awards volume in recognition of his pro- fessional and community leader- ship, a spokesman said this week. Sponsored by leading men's civic and service organizations, OUTSTANDING YOUNG MEN OF AMERICA honors men be- tween the ages of 21 and 35 whose demonstrated excellence has marked them for future lead- ership in the nation. "These young men," according to Doug Blankenship, Chairman of the Board of Advisory Editors, "OUTSTANDING YOUNG MEN WAYNE TAYLOR SOF AMERICA", "are truly out- standing because they have dis- Stinguished themselves in one or more aspects of community and professional life." Blankenship was U. S. Jaycee President in 1962-63. Nominations for the awards volume are submitted each year by civic organizations, Jaycee chapters, college alumni assoc- iation, and military comman- dants. President Nixon, compliment'- ing the awards volume, has said, "OUTSTANDING YOUNG MEN OF AMERICA presents a most fitting testimonial, not only to the success of many of our young people, but also to their aware- ness of the debt which they owe our free society." Publication date for the 1971 edition is November. SThree residents of Washington State are in Gulf' County jail on four charges of. possession :'of illegal drugs and paraphanalia, According to Gulf County Chief Deputy Hi T. Dean. Arrested were John S. Wesse- link, 27; Lloyd Joe Tyler, Jr.;, 23 and Diane P. Heyne, 18. All are .being. held on $4.004 bail ,and are .charged with four counts;' ,pos~sion of barbituate drugs,:' ;posssion of devices and para- phabalia for use of smoking and injecting drugs, possession of amphetamines and possession of LSD. , Dean said the trio was arrest- Graveside 'Services for 'Infant Daniell Raffield Graveside services were held Monday afternoon at Holly Hill Cemetery for infant Daniel Ma- thew Raffield. The baby boy was the two-month-old son of Mr. and Mrs. William M. Raffield of White City. The baby was pro- nounced dead on arrival at Mu- nicipal Hospital Sunday morn- ing. Services were conducted by Sister Jean Shoots, Pastor of the Church of God, Highland View. Survivors include the parents, Mr. and Mrs. William M. Raf- field; two half brothers, Johnny Ray and James Edward Raker, all of White City; maternal grandfather, Fairo L. Aman of Oak Grove; great grandmother, Mrs. Mattie Barnes of Fitzgerald, Ga. ed Thursday night of :.last week at ~th'e Boy Scout camp ground .in the Overstreet area. Dean said the two mpen and a woman were camping on" the site and apparently had been there only a day or two Dean said he 're- ceived a tip that the three were in the area and were carrying the illegal 'drugs. SThe Sheriff's Department also impounded a 1969 van. bond sale instructing him to pre- pare for up to a $6 million sale. The Board, on advice from their engineer, lhink thep project will cost in the neighborhood of $4 million and will sell the bonds piece-meal, selling only what is needed to finance the project. NUMBER 48 Smith was also granted author-': ity to ,go ahead and purchase through bids much of the ma- chinery for the project in the name 6f the City to take ad- vantage of lower prices now and relief fr6m having to pay sales tax. ' * ^ Gulf Library Board Makes Request for Financial Help from City; Want $1500 Port St. Joe City 6mmisison- ers were presented "preliminary plans Tuesday night for the new proposed waste treatment plant to. be. built in the old Kenney's Mill area. The system will treat waste from the City of Port St. Joe, St. Joe Phper Company an'd Glidden-Durkee, bringing a ll three ihtq compliance with pol- lutioni laws. David B.. Smith of David B. Smith Engineering, Inc., of Gainesville delivered the plans and was authorized by the City to. present them to tlhe State Air and Water Pollution' Control Bpard for their approval. Smith :was also instructed, to proceed with final drawings of the new multi-million dollar system. Preliminary discussion was held for financing the project. Commissioner Tom Coldewey suggested to the Board that the financing period not be for more than 15 years. "We'll save a pile of mondy this way"; he said. He went on to say that if the financ- ing is for, only 20 years,,interest will amount to as much as prin- cipal. The Board had been think- Sing in terms of 30 to 40 year fi- nancing. . Coldewey made a strong point and the 'Board went along', with him since St. Joe Paper Com- pany .will be paying 96% of the' .payments through use charges. SRepresentatives of St. Joe Pa- per and Glidden-Durkee met to- day to discuss the financing and *their individual use of the sys- tem yesterday morning. , Attorney William J. Risli was instructed to begin laying the grouidwork for financing ..y a Rail Strike Closes Basic Magnesia' Strikes and threats. o~ strikes throughout the nation /caused Basic Magnesia to losee down Operations here Monday. . Basic, which manufactures -'e- fractory products primarily used 'in steel mills ',was forced .to shut down for an indefinite per- siod due to railroad strikes apd shut down of steel ills caused - bv.threat of strikes. Robert Freeman, manager if the local plant, said strike' against the Southern Railway has stopped shipment of dolo- mite into Port St. Joe, vital to the firm's manufacturing pro- cess, Freeman said that with settlement of steel and rail dis- putes Monday, $Basic should be able to restime operations with- in about two weeks. He said the inventory stock piles both at the plant and at'steel mills will. be the deciding factor for starting up operation. , Last Rites ield for Mrs. Vanlandingham Funeral services were held Monday- afternoon from the First Baptist Church for Mrs. Alma Gertrude VanLandingham, 70, who passed away Saturday night 'in a Tallahassee Hospital follow- ing a lengthy illness.

Bate- man and D. M. Lewis. Comforter Funeral Home was in charge of arrangements. Correction The Star made a "no-no" in last week's paper, and hastens to correct it here. We put the wrong figure on top when sub- tracting and came up with the wrong answer, naturally. In the story concerning the school budget, we should have stated that the 'new budget will contain $50,000 less for teacher salaries and not $50,000 more. We'll report to the office for that little gem. for a total of $3,101.28 for the year. St. Joe Hardware was awarded a bid on 1,000 feet of 4" cast iron pipe and supplies. Their bid was $960.50. _-J--_s ( Dixie Youth Still Winning Port St. Joe's enter4 in the state Dixie Youth Tournament has put two wins under their belt and are now half ray into the contest for state championship being held in Milton this week. .

JOE, FLORIDA S2454j THURSDAY, AUGUST 5, 1971 Plans for Sewer Plant Delivered ree Arrested SDope Count : : C. E. Daniell, chairman of the . Gulf County Library Board, Mrs. Bill Simmons, a member of the Board and Mrs. Jane Patton, area librarian, asked the City Tuesday night for some financial help for the Port St. Joe Branch. Daniell stated that the Gulf County system needs $4,000 to meet its budget and asked the City to help out by paying the rent on the library building or furnish them a "home". Daniell said the rent is $125.00 per month here in Port St. Joe. Mayor Frank Pate told Daniell the City would consider the re- Squest and give an answer at the 'next Board meeting on August -16. SThe Board has set a special Budget meeting tor next Thurs.- day, at 9:00 a.m. and will prob- ably consider the request at that' .time. - SSeveral bids were received at.

Gulf Setting Record Gulf County ip. well on its way to setting a record- a record we don't really need or want. Let just one more person be killed on Gulf County highways this year and we will have set a record. According to Florida Highway Patrol Trooper Ken ,Murphy, Gulf has set a record in the past of nine traffic fatalitiepin a. years. The death of Dewayne Neel last Wed- nesday afternoon in White City, brings the number of traffic deaths this year, in Gulf County to nine. One more highway fatality and we will have set a new record. There's really no excuse for Gulf County, withits traffic count, to have such a fatality record as we have. There's not enough of us who pay attention to the traf- +fic regulation signs. True, disobeying these regulations hasn't caused all the traffic deaths we have experienced, but heeding them would have trimmed our record con- siderably, If only one life had been 'saved by everyone adhering to the speed limits, stopping at the proper' signs, etc., it would have been worth the trouble and the imagined delay. We have killed as many on our streets this year as has populous Bay County. This is a sad enditoment of our driving habits and the use of our traffic arteries It's worth a try for us to be more conscious of our driv- ing habits. This is a plea which we see daily and im mediately dismiss as being applied to someone else. I applies to everyone. While eveyone4likes to have the most, the best, or the most elaborate, this is one superlative we can dp with- out-the "distinction" that would come from setting i new traff!A fatality record. ."' We're quick to blame our law enforcement officials for such records,' when the blame properly belongs t< 'each of us as individuals. The police can't waih every car that moves for improper driving practices. Then, too, if we're caught ,disobeying traffic rules, we're quick to castigate, the police for stopping us when, "we were driving only five or ten miles over the speed limit and besides, there was nobody else on the road". Let's try a little harder NOT to set a record. a of r. s D. spoiled, but still the high rate of public service should be continued without gouging the tax payer any more than he has been in the past. Even though we receive a lot of services from our tax dollar, we can still count on the fact that there is some "fat" which could be trimmed. This is what the public wants. We don't anticipate that in Port St. Joe and Gulf County, anyone will be so brash as the Englishman and pay their taxes with a check written on a concrete slab. We do foresee the day when the tax paying public will vote the present law makers and administrators out of office should the. past trend continue, tax increases on a scale which hhirts, and hurts bad. ,The office holder as well as the tax payer are well aware that there are more people paying local taxes than ever before and their number is now probably at th6 point where 'they wield enough power to curtail or continue ,a maIs tenure in public office. There's nothing like a sensible tax bill and sensible spending of tax money to maintain a seat in local or county government. The revolt of tax payers isn't confined to te. United States it .seems. In a short article with a Buckingham, England dateline, a citizen of that .city was perturbed because he was paying high taxes and the money wasn't being used to perform na simple task like keeping the sidewalks in usable condition. The man expressed his dis- pleasure by finding a broken sidewalk slab and writing Out, his tax check on the concrete and dumping it at the town hall. Nobody here in Port St. Joe has gone so far, but most have expressed their displeasure at continuing ris- ing taxes on every level and have been faithful to let their displeasure be known. As a result of local displeasure and the effect of the financial pinch, it appears that our local governments- City, County and School Board-have decided to take the course of at least slowing down the rate of increase in tax payments. It appears to us that our local governments.,are re- ceiving enough money to offer competent and sufficient governmental services. We have so much more from our public dollar than do other counties. We may be a might Strikes seem to-be paralyzing the nation in every endeavor from farmers to doctors to candlestick makers. Before we go any farther, let's set the record straight by declaring that we are against strikes. True; they may be necessary at times, but we can't see where any benefits they might bring to the striking workers can offset the damage done to them, their employers and innocent peo- ; pie whose livelihood depend on what the strikers pro- iduce or move. Everyone in Gulf County is aware that a strike :threatens the St. Joe Paper Company. We know those planning to strike dread it. We also know that those who depend on ,the, mill operating for their livelihood dread the prospect even more because most of them, don't have access to strike funds or unemployment compensa- tion in many instances. So they are left out in the cold, the victims of something they didn't create. A prime example of this effect from strikes can vivid- ly be seen in the case of Basic Magnesia. Basic is not on strike, but they are shut down because others are. Rail- / THSE STAR Published Every Thursday at 306 Williams Avenue, Port St. Joe, FloridW By The Star Publfshlng Company WESUzY R.

Threatened steel strikes have all but shut down the steel industry and Basic's production goes primarily to steel mills. So, through no fault of their own, Porti St. Joe has approximately 50 families out of work today because of strikes. We know workmen are desirous of permanence, fair pay and the growing popular fringe benefits. We know that some strikes are necessary. But we would ask them to consider if their getting a little more is worth the hardship it will throw on innocent people in many cases, their own friends and next door neighbor. Film Is Shown To Kiwanians A film of the Master's Golf Tour- nament held in Augusta, Georgia this past spring was shown to the Kiwanis Club Tuesday by Rev. Mil-. lard Spikes, program chairman. In the tournament, a young pro- fessional by the name of John Mil- ler nearly bragged the champion- ship from old pros Jack Nicklaus an& Charles Coody, who were-bat-, tling it out in the final four holes. Miller actually took the lead with three holes to play, then got into trouble on the last holes to lose by two strokes to Coody. The ,young golfer tied Jack Nicklaus with seven under for second,'place. Coody finished nine under. Guest of the club was Dr. David B. Smith of Gainesville, \ ener and lather with something else. Get a check up and send a check, take a laxative, shampoo with a baby lotion and don't for- get the turtle oil. I must put out fires, kill ants, mosquitoes and roaches.

Support me- dical research, write my con- gressman, see my friendly bank- er, install a burger alarm, stay out of dark alleys, go to church and stop littering. While I am a normally peace- ful person I am constantly urg- ed to fight. I must fight fire, fight cancer, fight pollution, fight arthritis, fight poverty, fight inflation, fight pnemploy- ment. Fight just about anything and everything.' If you ask me, I am fighting and have been for sometime. Fighting to keep the wolf from the door, my head above water S and make both ends meet. I am fighting to pay my taxes and my bills and it gets tougher every day. As a good citizen I am sup- posed to support the aims and ambitions of a half a hundred charitable organizations and foundations to say nothing of my church and my chamber of com- Smerce. Goodwill, the Red Cross and save a buck a day for my old age are included. If I had access to the press and air waves I could advance some public service announcements of my own. Like "stop wasting our tax money." "Stop paying weathy farmers from receiving millions of dollars for not rais- ing crops." "Stop the boon dog- gling andrwaste of public funds." "Stop favoring tax-dodging mil -lionaires." "Stop making laws and regulations that coddle and protect the criminal" plus a good many others. CLASSIFIED ADS Midget Investmnts with Giant Rtunrml Too Late To Classify By Russell Kay It is bad enough being con- stantly warned, threatened, ad- monished and screamed at hour after hour and day after day in radio and TV commercials. Now, the so-called public service spots are adding to our misery. If I were a timid soul I would be inclined to stay in bed with the covers pulled over my head or hide in the closet with a spray gun in one hand and a re- peating rifle in the other. The day is not long enough for all the things to happen to me that I am warned about. I wonder on arising, if I am cou- rageous enough to do so. Is this the day my hair will start fall- ing out? Will my eyes turn red, my dentures come loose, my teeth develop cavaties, my feet start swelling and aching, my fingers start to stiffen, or my back begin aching? Nor is the day long enough for me to do all the things I am told to do if I would ward off these dangers. I must see my doctor, visit my dentist, brush my teeth with that, anoint my hair with this, breakfast on a cer- tain cereal, bathe with a special soap or throw the soap away and use a cream, apply a beard soft- *0I, Etaoin Shrdlu I by WESLEY R. RAMSEY All these years... all these many years... I have adhered to the popular belief that I must wash my hair regularly, massage the scalp, use the brush liberally, stim- ulate with the comb and use the right kind of shampoo to keep my hair from falling out. All these things have I done from my youth up . and still my hair falleth out at a faster rate than it grow- eth in. Like many others, I have psyched myself to look., ing forward to the day when it would all be gone and no longer would I have to shampoo (with the correct sham- poo) regularly. No longer would the regular brushing or massage be necessary. Like so many others, I could look forward to the day when a damp wash cloth once over lightly in the morning would do the trick. But, now, according to an article written by Robert Musel in Science Today, based on information vouched to by Dr. P. J. Hare (appropriate name) we have been doing everything wrong; everything that would hasten the exodus of the hair rather than encourage its hanging around a while longer. Dr. Hare has been assigned by the family doctor unit of the British Medical Association to report on the state of skin and hair in today's world. He says, in part, "Many people massage the scalp or rub in hair-restorers when they are going thin and this friction itself can aggra- vate the loss of hair. Honest trichologists or hair experts will confess that they make their money through per, suading people to stop doing things to their hair which is harming it rather than by positive forms of treatment." In other words, it takes an expert to convince you not to do something to prevent your hair falling out, when the sit- uation obviously calls for action. Dr. Hare also said hair care could be too thorough. "Physical damage to the hair can be caused by over- enthusiastic brushing, particularly with nylon bristles. Nylon is hard and makes good pot scourers and studs for football shoes, but is not a proper instrument with which to massage the head." * I shouldn't mention something else Dr. Hare said, since we're selling sunshine here in Florida, but the good doctor said, "Most people enjoy exposing themselves to warm sunshine but the amount of good it does is doubt- ful". He said the skin turning brown from sun exposure is really a damaged skin trying to defend itself. Dr. Hare warned against bathing too rigorously and too often. Every small boy knows this is bad for you. Dr. Hare says daily washing is necessary but he warns that scrubbing the skin, bathing or swimming too often removes the protective scale of the skin allowing it to be susceptible to fungus infection. Here's good news for the men from Dr. Hare. He said that the surface of the skin, the hair and the nails are dead, and no fancy solutions will make them "alive" and "pliable". Lard or olive oil will do just as good a job as that $5.00 a bottle face cream. Tell that to your wife! '*" . FIRST UNITED METHODIST CHURCH Intersection Monument and Constitution REV. R.

Corps of Engineers office in Mobile, Ala., water shipping reached an all-time high during 1970. Port St. Joe harbor had prob- ably the biggest increase in ship- ping,' on the Gulf Coast; record- ing nearly twide the tonnage re- ported during the 1969 fiscal year. Port St. Joe's po t handled 931,762 tons of shipping i& 1970 compared with 465,602 tons in 1969. The Gulf County Canal, which colfiects Port St. Joe .to the Gulf I*acoastal Waterway "six-'niles' north, also reported nearly a 106 percent increase in tonnage. The Engineers figures show that the Gulf County Canal handled 408,73 tons in 1970 and 240,801 ** 240,-0I tons in 1969. Port St. Joe's port compared favorably with 'other Northwest Florida ports on the Gulf Coast. Panama City reported 1,634,958 tons; Pensacola 1,002,174; Carra- belle, 48,398 and Apalachicola, 43,591. Waterborne commercial traf- fic moving over the Apalachi- cola, Chattahoochee and Flint Waterway hit an all-time record last year and the Gulf Intercoast- al continued its growth The three rivers serving major portions of Florida, Georgia and labaiha, carried 913,871 tons of commercial traffic in 1970 com- pared to 677,259 tons in 1969. The 236,612 ton increase rep- resented a 35 per cent hike and fulfilled expectations that it is one of the nation's fastest devel- oping waterways. Port St Joe has been designat- ed as the deep water harbor for the Three Rivers System, since it is the first deep water port along the system. The busy Gulf Intracoastal Wa- terway on Florida's "Big Bend" continued its year to year growth. Traffic in the Apalachee Bay to Panama City reach amounted to 2,122,284 tons in 1970 compared to 1,810,815 tons in 1969. The section from Pan- ama City to Pensacola Bay ac- counted, for;,.4,193,130 tons in 1970 versus 4,162,459 tons in 1969, while the section from Pensacola to Mobile Bay account- ed for 5,480,784 tons in 1970, a substantial increase over the 4,- 991,933 tons for 1969.

A terrarium is a mini-garden en- closed in a glass container like a round glass globe, aquarium, large- mouth bottle or another type of glass container. Terrariums are ideal for growing plants indoors since they create ,a near ideal at- mosphere for plants which nor- mally could not stand the dry con- ditions in most homes. The glass enclosure produces an atmosphere of high humidity, protects deli- cate foliage and allows you to grow many plants which would normally not do well indoors. Terrariums are simple to make and once planted are easy to main- tain. The plants will usually thrive with only minimum care. Choose a container suitable to the inter- ior decor. Second, select a con- tainer which is easy to plant. A bottle terrarium is certainly a con- versation piece but it is difficult to plant unless the opening is large. After selecting the container, place at least one-inch of small pea gravel in the bottom of the unit. This produces a water reservoir in the bottom but allows water drainage from the media above. The gravel prevents overwatering problems. On top of the gravel place three to four inches of a good organic soil mixture. One part peat and one part sand is a good mix. The soil mixture can be Florida Garden Notes by SHANNON SMITH Home Grounds Specialist University of Florida leveled or molder into slopes an depressions of various shapes to produce a natural looking minia. ture landscape. Select plants which are of suit- able size for the container and ones which will not grow so fast that they have to be removed too quickly. Small foliage plants and ferns are ideal but flowers like Af- rican violets add color and inter- est. Set the plants at the same depth they were growing in the wild or pot. A glass cover for the terrarium top is used to keep the humidity high and to prevent it from drying out too rapidly., When moisture condenses on the glass, remove the top to ventilate the terrarium. Wa- ter only when the soil surface be- comes dry and add only enough water to re-moisten the soil. The terrarium should be kept in a shady spot so use plants which naturally thrive in such an area. The plants will survive for a long time wtihout fertilization. Do not over fertilize or the plants wil soon outgrow the container. With a mininium of care you' should be able to grow lush plants: in your terrarium and the lustre and reflection of plants inside glass will add a great deal to the beauty of your interior design.

I / Florida First National Bank at Port St. Joe Member, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation T Listed for 'Pulling Trailers Trailers attached to family ve- hicles during the summer give dri- vers added responsibilities, said the Florida Highway Patrol this week. Colonel Reid Clifton, Director of the Patrol said, "The state has experienced a growth in the num- ber of trailers used for summer- time travel and week end recrea- tion. Drivers should be aware of the special driving problems and equipment required when pulling trailers." Last year in Florida, there were 1,079 traffic accidents involving passenger cars pulling trailers. The Patrol listed the following tips for drivers towing camper trailers, house trailers and boat trailers: Use a strong frame mounted hitch. Make certain turn signals, brake light sand trailer lights are checked periodically during a trip to see that they are working pro- perly. ' State law requires safety chains attached from the retailer to the towing vehicle. These chains must be of sufficient strength to maintain a connection under all conditions. Brakes are required on all trailers of a gross weight of 3,000 pounds or more and they must be designed to be applied by the dri- ver of the towing vehicle. The law prohibits --a person from .riding in a house trailer when it is being moved. "When towing a trailer always remember the extra weight and length and allow an extra margin of safety", Clifton concluded. M. B.
