THIRTY-EIGHTH YEAR, NUMBER 9 Industry Deep Water Port Fine People Safest Beaches in Florida PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA THURSDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1974 S, Over Evaluations, Expenditures People Are Surely Disturbed Expressions of Buck Alexander and N. G. Martin reflect concern of people at meeting Star Photo There's no doubt about it; the people of Gulf County are disturbed about their property valuations and the amount of money being spent by local government. If the temper of the some 200 people who attended the tax payers meeting at the Port St. Joe High School last Thursday night is any indication, they are more concerned about expenditures of tax money than they are about the amount of their new valua- tions. Almost to a man, the dozen or so citizens who spoke during the evening were disturbed about the amount of money which was being spent in Gulf County and the things some of the money' was being spent for. Before the meeting really got underway, chairman Bob Nobles asked Harold Quack- enbush to explain just how taxes are levied and how millage is arrived at by the taxing bodies. Some samples of some of the complaints aired during the hour-long meeting were these: Ralph Nance asked for a ruling on whether or not it was legal for the county to build roads in subdivisions and whether or not it was legal to revert a portion of a subdivision back .to acreage for taxing purposes. Merrill Sherrill said he was concerned about how money was spent by the County Board. He asked if it was necessary for all County Commissioners to have a two-way radio in their cars at county expense. He was also concerned about the inequities in the value of property. David Barfield felt the county should spend more money. He asked why water and sewer couldn't be provided in unincor- porated areas. William Hall echoed this sentiment. N. G. Martin said his house was 50 years old and was probably formerly a "turpen- tine still shack until I fixed it up". He felt his assessment was too high. Bob Lange asked the question "can anything be done about what has already been foisted upon Os?". He felt a different manner of arriving at valuations should be employed and planning for future land use be accomplished. Dr. Bob King suggested the County Commission serve without pay. Max Kilbourn echoed this suggestion for School Board members. David Carl Gaskin suggested some economy in expenditures could be affected. "Prices, taxes and everything else have gone up", he said. "At home, we have to cut our budgets if we can't afford what we want. It is time to reduce the expenditures of our government to an amount we can afford." Gaskin said "We have a recourse on assessments of property. We have a way to legally object and get our valuations chang- ed if it is wrong. We nave no recourse on the budget." Gaskin went on to say, "People don't mind paying for good, clean, efficient government, but even that has its limits on what they are willing to pay for." The Wewahitchka attorney went on to suggest that a committee be appointed to serve as a watchdog over the various budgets in the county. He suggested that the citizens adopt a spirit of cooperation with officials. "They are all good men", he said. "They don't know what you want unless you tell them." Wesley R. Ramsey noted that in 22 years of attending government meetings in the County he had seen very few in attendance who came merely to observe how their government operated. "After the fact is too late to act", he said. "To affecto:a proper balance of expenditures to ability to pay, we must, as citizens, show an interest in our government and become informed i-: what is happening." As a result of the meeting, a committee of 25 citizens was appointed to study -_tWe various.budgets in the county and maki- recommendations. The committee wil: be chaired by Robert Nobles and consistsiiEf Larry Bateman, J. H.Pridgeon, Dr. Bob King, George Wimberly, Ed Creamer, J. L. Miller, J. W. Bouington, Jim McNeill, Lane Newberry, Max Kilbourn, O. M. Taylor, Robert "Trawick, George Tapper, Mrs. Frances Chason, Ed Frank McFarland, Frank Griffin, Silas R. Stone, Ralph Ma- comber, Bill Altsteatter, Alton Fennell, Damon Peters, Jr., J. C. McArdle, Archie Floyd and Mrs. Ruth Hammond. The committee met for the first time Monday night and divided into teams"t,. begin a study of each tax supported budget- in the county. New Council Would Attempt to I Assure Proper Medical Facilities B Gulf County has been plac- ed in the Comprehensive Health Planning Council. of.. the Big Bend Area of Florida, Incorporated, who has the Sduty to see, that adequate medical services are provid- ed for the people of the, Council area. The organiza-. tion is also charged with the responsibility of seeing that a duplication of medical facili- ties is, not duplicated in a service area and that no particular community invests in medical services and facil- ities it does not need or 'is provided at another point in the area to better advantage. The new organization, sponsored by the Federal Government has several du- ties in its scope of operation. These include defining future health system needs and aid- ing a particular area in ob- taining necessary items; de- termining priority health prob- lems -in any given area; describe the health delivery system to the people in their Jurisdiction and develop stra- tegies and tactics to influence decisions. Already the council has started on a program for determining the additional health priorities in the Gulf County area. At a. meeting in the Court- Shouse Monday night, a list of five priority items were drawn up by the citizens and medical personnel there from a list of some 15 suggestions. The five health priorities in- clude: school dental 'health, strengthen the County Health Department services, secure more physicians for the coun- ty, improve drainage system as a preventive measure, care for elderly, full time guidance clinic and hospital emergency service. Don Gregor, Coordinator of the Panhandle Sub-Council of the Big Bend organization said the Council had already made a survey of county medical facilities. He pointed out the county already has the number of doctors re- commended by the National Health Services but pointed out that health deficiencies of some doctors and the com- plete lack of a doctor in the Wewahitchka area makes a need for more. The recom- mendation is one doctor for each 4,000 people. He re- commended another dentist for the area. Presently there are two and the recommend- ed average is one dentist for each 5,000 people. Gregor was aided in his presentation of information by Constantine Contis of Tal- lahassee, a planner-evaluator for the Counil. .. The Big Bend. Council is made up of 15 counties from the Big Bend area. The Pan- handle Sub-District is made up of six counties including Gulf, Waltori, Honlm.s. Wash- 'ington, Bay and Franklin. Each county has represena- tives on the council made up ^*^'.jS^ ^' of "providers" and "consu- mers" the "providers" being medical people and the "consumers" being those who use the medical services. Gulf County has four men ..^ ' Don Gregor and Constantine Contis examine a list of medical treatment improvement ideas. Cast Gulf County voters will go to the polls for the last time this year next Tuesday to cast their ballot in the gen- eral election. No local candidates are on the ballot, since no local primary candidates had op- position from another party's Your Vote candidate, but several state offices are on the ballot. Questions to be decided Tuesday are United States Senator, Governor and Lieu- tenant Governor. Secretary of State. Comptroller, State Treasurer, Commissioner of Education. Commissioner of Agriculture. Commissioner Florida Public Service Com- mission and seven Constitu- tional Amendments. Candidates for United States Senate include. Demo- crat Richard (Dick) Stone, Republican Jack Eckerd and American Party candidate John Grady. For Governor and Lt. Gov- ernor of Florida, incumbent Reubin Askew and his run- ning mate J. H. "Jim" Wil- liams will represent the Dem- ocratic party against Repub- lican candidates Jerry Thomas and Mike Thompson. The Secretary of State race will pit Democrat Bruce A. Smathers against Republican James A. Sebesta. Democrat Gerald Lweis will face Republican W. H. (Bill) Munfzing in the contest for Comptroller. For State Treasurer, it will be Democratic incumbent Thomas D. O'Malley against Son the Council. These repre- sentatives are B. Roy Gibson, who chaired the meeting Monday night, George G. Tapper, Dr. Bob King and .Dr. Joseph P. Hendiix. While the organization is just getting into the business of providing medical care, they will play an important role in future services. The Council will be charged with guiding, any enlargement, improvements or establishing new medical services 'in the future. The Council will guide the placement of treatment facilities in their area and aid local representatives in seek- ing funding for future pro- grams. The aim of the Council is to provide adequate medical fa- cilities and treatment centers in each of the given areas with as little duplication as possible.

Griffin reminds motorists there will be many small children outside tonight doing their thing with the "Trick or Treat" activity so popular on Hallowe'en night. Chief Griffin said, "Many of these children will be dressed up in dark costumes and will be hard to see if they are walking on the street Too,. many of them will be tod excited to take normal precautions when walking around near or on the roads after dark, so we must watch out for them," The Police Chief urged that, if at all possible, parents accompany their children on their "Trick or Treat" adventure to see that they observe safe pedestrian habits. He also urged that all children stay on the sidewalks where sidewalks are available and. try to refrain from darting out in the streets. "We want the kids to have fun tonight", Griffin said. "But we also want to be able to enjoy them in life and good health tomorrow morning." So, watch it kids; traffic is dangerous to cope with as a pedestrian especially at night.

The answer is-the interest on the national debt. The interest costs are at a record level, nearly $30 bil- lion, by virtue of a big boost in the debt ceiling in May. The total debt is now at an astronomical $495 billion, just under a half trillion. The increase, requested by the Nixon Administration was necessary so that the govern- ment could borrow money to meet its oncoming obliga- tions.

In the interest of public service, a synoposis of the proposed constitutional changes are reproduced here. NO. 1 Constitutional Amendment ARTICLE XII, SECTION 9 Proposes an amendment to Section 9 of Article XII of the State Constitution to: Continue today's school construction program at area vocational-technical centers, community col- leges, and universities, and extend the program to include the K-12 public schools, supported by bonds payable from the gross receipts taxes, pled- ging the full faith 'and credit of the State. Oil Rigs Attract Fishes Offshore oil drilling rigs attract fish by the millions, according to a film shown to the Rotary Club last Thurs- day. Produced by Standard Oil Company, the film showed the highlights of a study made by scientists around the oil platforms to determine their effect on marine life. Entitled, "The Steel Reef", the film showed that nearly all species of fish in the Gulf of Mexico congregate around the platform, which house up to a dozen wells digging into the ocean floor. The film showed that even new species of fish are attracted to the platform areas to feed off;the food chain which is attracted to the underwater structure of the drilling platforms, which h sometime extendfor hundreds or -eet ...unldr nhe after r before se"illeig on'he floor of the Gulf. Guests of the club were am Scott of Monticello, Carl ettigrew of Apalachicola, ,avid Carl Gaskin of Wewa- hitchka, Oren Segrest of Port Gibson, Miss., and Jack Greene of Birmingham, Ala. NO. 2 Constitutional Amendment ARTICLE XII, SECTION 9 An amendment to Sec- tion 9 of Article XII of the State Constitution to: 1. Extend the life of the "second gas tax" to Jan- uary 1, 2025. 2. Extend the purposes for which bonds may be issued and reve- nues may be used to all transportation facilities. 3. Permit the bonds to be secured by tolls, portions of the "second gas tax" and any other legally available revenues. NO. 3 Constitutional Amendment Article VIII, Section 1 Change the name of the office of "Tax Assessor" to "Property Appraiser". NO. 4 Constitutional Amendment ARTICLE IV, SECTION 9 The Resolution makes the appointment of game commission members sub- ject to senate approval; provides that the commis- sion's planning, personnel, purchasing and budgeting shall be provided by law; and, that the legislature may appropriate funds to the commission. NO. 5 Constitutional Amendment ARTICLE V, SECTION 12 An amendment to Sec- tion 12 of Article V of the State Constitution to per- mit the judicial qualifica- tins commission to investi- gate and recommend to the supreme court the removal or reprimand of any justice or judge whose conduct, during term of office or otherwise occur- ring on or after November 1, 1966, demonstrates a present unfitness to hold office or warrants a repri- mand, to provide a pro- cedure for the removal of members, to permit the commission to adopt rules It wasn't surprising to find out there are a number of people dissatisfied with property assessments last Thursday night at the meeting held in the Port St. Joe High School. It appeared to me as if about 200 people were present and not a single soul took the stand to say he was satisfied. Several expressed their unpleased position over taxing and spending in Gulf County. As much as we hate to admit it, the people of Gulf County can blame nobody but them- selves if they are displeased over property valuations and spending of tax money. I don't remember seeing a single one of those at the meeting Thursday night at the Commission ~i mje tgs resting over programs adopted by the county, the school board oi either city in the county. It takes no genius to figure out that every time :one of these, governing bodies undertakes a new program it must be paid for. The only source of revenue for public works is from the tax payer. What hurt most of all is that many who have had a free ride for years are now having to cough up a few dollars to pay for these things we have been convinced we need. As long as the tax bill was distributed among a very few, not much was said. Since practically every property owner can now expect to pay some taxes, the worm has turned. We are now concerned. Too, we have sat back silent, while our Tax Assessor did what most people wanted him to do keep valuations low so the tax burden would be on somebody else. By doing so, we invited the state of Florida to step in and enforce the fair valuation law. If we had insisted on it here at home, we would have had our property valuations increased gradually instead of the great leap upward of this year. Too, with a gradual increase, we feel a more equitable assessment would be evident. The haste with which the present valuation was made was responsible for most of the present inequities. But, it's only human nature not to insist on FLORIDA WILDLIFE COMMENTS ON THI OUTDOORS I SBy Dr. O. E. Frye, Jr. / Director fr",' GAME AND FRESH WATER FISH COMMISSION - f.. ' TALLAHASSEE-If you think all hunters need guns to pursue their sport, let me tell you of a growing group on non-consumptive style Flori- da hunters. These fellows are making a change in the out- door scene in Florida. While the woods still ring with hound music, the boom of rifles and shotguns is missing. ,. :The fox hunter is a tradi- tional style hunter with a new wrinkle; Gone is the mad chase of horsemen through village and woodlot as de- picted in the movies. Instead you now see family groups at well organized field trials bragging about their hound's voice and style. There is close attention paid to game laws, sportsmanship and family fun by the serious, modem fox hunter. By their own choice, the organized fox hunters have successfully petitioned the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission for protection of the animal they hunt. As a result, red and grey fox are not considered pests or ver- min in the State of Florida. Fully protected with a no kill hunting season established by law and well enforced, Flori- da's foxes are honored mem- bers of the game population here. regulating its proceedings which rules may be re- pealed by general law en-. acted by majority vote of the membership of each house of the legislature, or by the supreme court, five justices concurring, to re- quire all proceedings be- fore the commission to be confidential until a recom- mendation is filed by the commission or unless the supreme court suspends a justice or judge as recom- mended by a vote of seven members of the commis- sion concurring, then all proceedings shall be pub- lic, further permitting the commission access to all information for all execu- tive, legislative, and judi- cial agencies, and requir- ing the commission to make available informa- tion for use in considera- tion of impeachment or suspension when requested by the speaker of the house of representatives or the governor, respect- ively. Also provides for appointment of a new commission. NO. 6 Constitutional Amendment Article VII, Section 10 Authorizes a municipa- lity, county, special dis- trict or agency of any of them to become a joint owner of, giving or lend- ing or using its taxing power of credit for the joint ownership, construc- tion and operation of elec- trical energy generating or transmission facilities with any corporation,. association, partnership or person. NO. 7 Constitutional Amendment ARTICLE I, SECTION 2 The resolution provides that no person shall be discriminated against- be- cause of a physical handi- cap. paying for something we can get out of. The new valuations, after they are equaliz- ed, can become one of the best things that has happened to Gulf County. It will make our citizens constantly aware of how our tax money is spent and collected. We probably won't demand as much and if we do want something, we will go after it with the full knowledge that everyone is going to pay part of the bill. It was interesting to note that even though all of the people at the meeting Thursday night were indignant over huge spending by our local governments and were dissatisfied with proper- ty assessments, a very few wanted even more services, in the way of water and sewer; in unincorporated areas. If this were to come about, you would see a' sizeable jump in county taxes, or else they will be faced with a bill each and every month for the services. A good example of what is involved can be seen here in Port St. Joe where the City has a value of some $3 million invested in facilities and an operating budget of nearly $300,000 a year. That's money paid by the people to own and operate their water and sewer system and those who do not live in the city cannot expect to get these services without either moving into the city or paying for the same services in their area. The new valuations will not allow them to have them for free. I personally welcome the new interest in government and where it spends our money. I just hope the interest doesn't wane or that the new substantial tax payers will not become so numb to their annual tax bill that they will fall back into the old routine of letting someone else take care of their business. I feel that if this interest continues and is passed on to our government officials we will see considerable improvement in our govern- mental bodies in Gulf County. As they have done so many times in the past, or- ganized sportsmen are again the leaders in protecting a wildlife species. Fox hunters, at their own request, must possess a hunting license to participate in their sport, but may not kill their quarry. Foxes may be run with hounds, but may not be taken by trapping or shoot- ing. It is this fact which al- lows a good fox area to be used again and again. The growth of non- consumptive hunting of fur bearers in Florida has impor- tant implications for other hunters who thrill to hodnd music in the woods. A much longer season with associated recreational values with no harm to the game resource is a positive result of a no-kill hunting season using dogs. That the running of deer or foxes by dogs does no harm to the animal is well estab- lished by scientific research. Scientists using tracking radios or live traps have estab- lished what hunters have known for years. A deer run by dogs today will be back on its home range tonight and in its home range tonight and in the absence of other factors will be as healthy as any other animal on similar range and feed. Without illegal kill- ing of doe or short-horn deer, merely running the animal with dogs has little or no effect. The effect of these studies has been for us to become more lenient in opening game areas to no-kill hunts with dogs. Increased revenue from license fees, more available person days of outdoor recre- ation and no harm to the game population is a good bargain in anybody's lan- guage. For more information on fox hunters clubs in your area or where to run your dogs, contact the nearest of- fice of the Florida Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission in Panama City, Tallahassee.

With just over half the season gone I S\ thought it might be fun to do a little projecting, as to what we'll be watching over the holidays. Bowl committees traditionally base their selection on record, past S bowl history, team location (geo- graphically), and of course confer- ence commitments. They make their selections early, in order to get, what they hope, will be the most attractive match- ups. Sometimes this will "back-fire". Teams with games remaining on their schedules are sometimes picked and what originally looked like a real winner, turns out to be something less. With that in mind and feeling sure we won't be consulted anyway, we think this line-up would be a good one. Rose Bowl-Ohio State vs. So. Cal.

Support Local Merchants Shop at Home Jeanne Pruett - David Rogers Headline Show at Auditorium Two of Country's top per- formers will be featured on the country segment of Coun- try Good Times when the show appears at the Panama City Municipal Auditorium. Friday. November 8. Billed as the top Country show of the season with Jeanne Pruett. David Rogers. Jim and Jesse and Grandpa Jones. Country Good Times brings together the best of country music from its original form of bluegrass to the present favorite style of American Country. Jeanne Pruett is one star whose vocal talents reflect her own personality, warm. friendly, understanding. This is why her many top hits like "Hold To My Unchanging Love". "Love Me". "Satin Sheets". "One More Time" and her latest release "Welcome to The Sunshine". keep her among the top recording artists in Country Music When you think of David Rogers. one thinks of the quality of his music. Whether its his smooth country ballad style. or the up-tempo rhythm it helps establish him as one of the finest singers in the Country Music field. Hits like 'Just Thank Me". "It'll Be Her". "Loving You Has Changed My Life". and his latest top ten record "Just Can't Help Believing". all have the undeniable David Rogers stamp etched upon the song. One of the most suc- cessful groups to bridge the gap between Bluegrass and Modern Country has been Jim and Jesse and the Virginia boys. Long a favorite S .. /- - S., in this part of the country. Jim and Jesse McReynolds won acclaim with the larger na- tional country music au- dience after joining the Opry music staff. Their hit songs such as "Freight Train". "Snowbird". "Rocky Top". prove they justly deserve to be classed among the top elite of bluegrass groups in the nation, and also rated one of the most talented and versatile acts in country music. Special Guest Star of the show will be the undisputed Number 1 Grandpa in the whole country. Grandpa Jones. of the smash hit televi- sion series Hee-Haw.

Quarterly Wage Reports Due Quarterly wage reports and social security contributions for household workers are due by October 31, according to David P. Robinson, Social Security Field-: Representa- tive fop'Gulf County. . "If -you pay a household worker $50 or more in cash wages in any three-month calendar quarter for work around your house, you must send a report of the wages and the social security contri- bution to the Internal Reve- nue Service within one month after the end of the quarter," Robinson said. Quarters are January-Feb- raury-March, April-May-June July-August-September and October November Decem- ber. Wage reports and social security contributions for the third quarter of 1974 are due by October 31. The reports may be filed on a form available at any Inter- nal Revenue Service office- "Employer's Quarterly Tax Return for Household Em- ployees (for Social Secur- ity)." Under the current social security contribution rate, the employer and the em- ployee each pay 5.85 percent of covered wages. "Or the employer can pay the full 11.7 percent contribution," Robinson said. Social security contribu- tions help build retirement, disability, survivors, and Medicare protection for 11/ million household workers, including maids, cooks, cleaning women, gardeners, handymen, and babysitters, according to Robinson. People who employ house- hold workers can get a free copy of the leaflet, "Social Security and Your Household Employee," at any social security office.

Charter No. ......14.902 B : Ms. Pamela Marshall Ornamental Horticulture University of Florida As lots become smaller and yards are being fenced in, more people should consider the use of espalier, Espalier is the training of a tree or shrub against a wall or fence. Although an espaliered plant requires periodic pruning it is. well worth the effort. The use of espalier against a fence can help diminish the hemmed in feeling and give the illusion of more space. Espaliered plants used in foundation plantings can be trained around windows thus allowing for a tall plant that will not obstruct the view, or they can be used in narrow beds or small areas where an untrained plant would be too large. Citrus, ligustrum, Confed- erate jasmine, podocarpus, loquat and magnolia may be used throughout Florida for espalier. Camellia, holly, photina, pyracantha, dogwood and euonymus make good es- paliered plants in north Flor- ida, .while allamanda, bou- gainvellea, poinsettia, lan- tana and star jasmine are excellent choices for south Florida. Plants not included in the above list may be used if they produce many lateral branches and can be severely' pruned. An espaliered plant must be first pruned to obtain the proper shape then pruned to maintain the shape. Plants to be espaliered should be planted six to eight inches from the wall in well drained soil. It is best to start with a young plant. Pruning will depend on the type of espalier wanted and the num- ber of laterals on the plant. Remove all unwanted lat- erals or branches. If the laterals are badly placed or there are not enough to pro- duce the design you want cut them all back to the main shoot. Do not cut the top of the main shoot until the de- sired height is reached if you want to achieve a design with a dominant main shoot, such as a pyramid. If you prefer a design with pronounced late- ral growth, such as one of the U or T forms, the terminal should be cut at the level of the first cordon or branching, usually 15 to 18 inches from the ground. If no special design is desired the branch- es may be tied in their natural position as long as no branches cross. If a design is being followed carefully bend the branch into the desired position and tie it into place. Do not use wire to tie the branches because it may gir- dle the stem, outdoor twine that will not rapidly decay may be-used. Branches should be tied so that they are six to eight inches from the wall. This allows for better air circula- tion. less disease and insect problems, and increased depth. When the desired height is reached cut the ter- minal and continue to prune the plant to the desired shape. Espalier not only allows for National Bank Region No. b plants to be grown in areas where other types of plants would be unsuitable it also brings out the natural beauty of, the plant. The stem, which is usually covered, can be ex- posed to reveal interesting patterns, bark color and tex- ture. Leaf color, texture and shape are more noticeable as well as the flower and fruit which may be increased in size due to the added care. Engagement Announced H. M. McClamma of Wewa- hitchka and Ruth McClamma of St. Joe Beach announce the approaching marriage of their daughter, Kathryn Eve- la, to Richard McRae. The prospective groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Lamar Mc- Rae of Manchester, Ga. The marriage will be solemnized December 22 at 2 p.m. in the Beach Baptist Chapel, with a reception fol- lowing at the church. All friends and relatives of the couple are invited to attend.

Trick or Treaters Tonight Drive Carefully! THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. TiURSDAY, OCTOBER 31. 1974 PAGE F'VE Horse Club Enjoys Playday The Gulf County 4-H Horse Club held a playday Satur- day, October 19 followed by a cookout. Judge for the show was Mary Frowiss. Winners in each class were: Halter Geldings: Sheila Kent, Cindy Murdock, Tam- my McMillian, Tammy Homemade Treats For Tricksters Pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters -- they all added up to more than $3 million last year when young Trick or Treaters collected coins for UNICEF in neighborhoods throughout the United States. These contributions helped provide food, medicine and educational assistance for millions of youngsters in developing nations. Even more is needed this year when up to 500 million children are threatened with severe malnutrition and even starva-- tion by the world's economic crisis. Some Kids Will Enjoy Halloween Aiding Others For some children, Hallo- ween is child's play. For others-in the poorer coun- tries of Africa, Asia and Latin America-the fun this fall will be in deadly earnest. Across the U.S.A., in homes and communities every- where, children will celebrate "All Hallow's Eve" with par- ties and costumes, tricks and treats, ghosts and goblins- and with UNICEF, the United Nations Children's Fund. Through UNICEF their ef- forts to collect funds for the world's needy children will be transformed into material signs of help, hope and health for some of the millions of children struggling to stay alive in the developing world. American children's 'evening of excitement, games and good deeds will become food for young Africans caught in their country's seven-year siege of drought and famine. It will help provide insur- ance, in the form of Vitamin Acapsules, against terrifying vitamin deficiency blindness .for., youngsters in wartorn. 4ndochina. It will help supply clean-watei"' wkellfs to t''ti sickness in India, emergency aid to flooded and beleaguer- ed Bagladesh, and a teacher, a school and education sup- plies for illiterate children of a Bolivian village. Through UNICEF, the Halloween fun of children here at home will mean a new lease on life for desperate children in coun- tries around the world. Help for these children can't come too soon. The same conditions making Americans pay 40 cents for a loaf of bread and over half a dollar for a gallon of gasoline are turning the existence of children in already poverty- stricken nations into a nearly impossible feat. World-wide shortages of fuel, food and fertilizer have caused prices to soar. Global inflation is so severe that governments must trim their budgets, and social services for children and mothers are often the. first to be cut. Every day famine pushes its path further around the equator, threatening up to half a billion Third World children. These children face the most basic dangers to human life-malnutrition, disease, starvation and death. To alert nations to their ex- treme situation, UNICEF has, for the first time in its 28-year history, declared' a State of Emergency for Chil- dren in the Developing World. UNICEF already is ship- ,ping and...distributing, high- protein food and intravenous rehyd.riiBofi' h'ad" feeding fluids to children and mothers in drought-stricken West Africa and Ethiopia. It is also supplying well-drilling equipment to these areas to provide desperately needed. clean water for drinking. The Children's Fund can help governments establish nutri- tin programs, train parents and community leaders to in- crease local food production, elect as Governor JERRY THOMAS Why not a successful businessman for Florida's biggest business?

But UNICEF must find an addi- tional $80 million in the next 12 to 15 months to meet the emergency needs. It is fitting that the world's youngest and neediest should be helped by their peers here at home. On or around Octo- ber 31, children and young people will "Trick or Treat for UNICEF", ride bikes for UNICEF, arrange block par- ties, "hunger" banquets and even Bobby Riggs-Billie Jean King-style tennis matches for UNICEF. Such activities will assume greater importance this fall as reports of world- wide child tragedy mount and the need for funds becomes increasingly apparent. Last year over three and a half million young people in 50 states and' on military bases in Europe and Asia raised over $3 million at Hal- loween-time, having fun with a purpose, mixing games with good will, making magic for mankind. This year the 'lI be' out ringing 'door- bells'agrn Thd ktrew Hallo. ,ween's for children-a-ll around the world.

Candied Apples 1 cup sugar 1 cup water % cup light corn syrup 1 envelope unsweetened soft drink mix, any red flavor 6 to 8 medium apples Wooden skewers Combine sugar, water, and corn syrup in saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Continue boiling without stirring, until mixture forms brittle threads that break easily when removed from cold water, (or to a tempera- ture of 290F.). Remove from heat; blend in soft drink mix. Place pan over hot water to help prevent syrup from hardening. Insert skewers into apples at stem end, and dip, one at a time, into syrup; turn to cover evenly and let excess syrup run off. Place on tray or wax paper to harden about 30 minutes. Makes 6 to 8 apples. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH Corner Third Street and Baltzell Avenue REV. DeWITT T.

The Sharks took the kick- off, only to have to give it up after six plays gained only 19 yards. Bill Norton lofted one of his several fine punts of the night to the Tiger 11. Five plays later and Ray. Law- rence tossed Dilly Webb for a five yard loss forcing the Tigers to punt. With six min- utes left in the first period, the Sharks started operations from the Tiger 39.

Willie Nellums had scored from 13 yards out, but a clipping penalty nullified the score and put the Tigers back on the 23 yard line. Nellums then ran for seven yards.

Nellums regained the lost 15 vards in two runs, then Golf STeam Travels o Representatives of St. Joe Paper Company trekked to Blakely, Georgia Saturday to take on representatives of Great Southern Paper Com- pany in a golf tournament on the Blakely course. The match was enjoyed by over 54 golfers. Port St. Joe matched 23 of their players with approximately 45 points on the losing side. The Great Southern golfers had around 400 points with Port St. Joe 355 points. The Great Southern golfers had the advantage over the Port St. Joe team since they were more familiar with the course. Everyone enjoyed the com- petition so well they want to play a return match on the Port St. Joe course. Of course local players are anxiously awaiting this match when the Blakely players get their first look at the formidable traps and water holes at St. Joseph Bay Country Club.

Carry Over Deductibles Under the "carry-over" rule of the medical insurance part of Medicare, doctor bills for October, November, and December may in some cases count toward the $60 annual deductible for both 1974 and 1975,.:according to David P. Robinson, Social Security Field Representative, for Gulf County. The medical insurance part of Medicare helps pay for doctor bills and a variety of other medical expenses of al- most everyone 65 and over. Before payments from Medi- care begin, the patient must meet the annual deductible, the first $60 of covered medi- cal expenses accumulated in a calendar year. "The carry-over rule helps the Medicare patient who might otherwise have to pay the $60 deductible twice in a short period of time." Robin- son said--once at the end of one year. again at the begin- ning of the next year. Under the carry-over rule, doctor bills for October. November and December. which can be counted toward your $60 de- ductible for 1974. can apply to the deductible for both 1974 and 1975." Even if a Medicare patient hasn't met the 1974 deducti- ble before October. he should send in all of his medical bills for covered services for the last three months of 1974 ac- cording to Robinson. The bills should be sent in with a Request for Medicare Payment form. available at most doctors' offices and all social security offices. They should be sent to Blue Cross- Blue Shield. Jacksonville. the health insurance organization that handles medical insur- ance payments in Florida.

We don't have forests to burn. Think about it. Next time you burn anything. resume normal care. Cacti .an be grown from seed and many seed com- panies offer packets of mixed varieties. These can be fun to grow if you can stand the suspense. Some cacti seed take a year to germinate and it may take a few years to see what your young cacti will look like. Cacti may also be propagated from branches By: Ms. Pamela Marshall Ornamental Horticulture University of Florida Cacti are a group of plants that are not only easy to grow but offer a variety of shapes, color and form. They can be grown in any sunny. well drained area and require little maintenance. They make excellent house plants and many hardy varieties may-be grown outside. True cacti belong the fam- ily Cactaceae with 140 genera and over 1.700 species. Most cacti have fleshy. condensed. spiny leafless stems and often have large showy flo- wers. Some of the smaller cacti have blooms larger than the plant, while the larger plants may flower so profusely the entire plant is hidden in bloom. Flower color ranges from pure white to pastels to intense reds. yellows, oranges, purples and pinks. Cacti require a sunny loca- tion with good drainage. They should be potted only in pots that-have drainage holes and a layer of gravel should line the bottom of the pot. Replac- ing the top inch of soil with gravel is not only decorative but may also keep the plant from rotting at the base. A potting media of equal vol- umes of coarse sand. peat and perlite is suitable for most cacti. Vertical plants should be planted in a con- tainer which has a diameter I- the height of the plant and round cacti in containers with a diameter two inches great- er than that of the plant. Care should ba taken to pre- vent rot from developing on recently potted or repotted plants. Be sure the pot is dry before transplanting and transplant into dry soil. Wait a week" before watering to allow for the damaged roots to repair. Cacti do need to be water- ed and fertilized but not so frequently as other plants. Water the pots when they dry out. Unglazed clay pots re- quire more frequent watering than glazed clay or plastic pots. small pots require more frequent watering than large pots. SMainy eacti. but not all.

A five-pound bag of refined sugar that sold for 81 cents in August of 1973 now sells for around $2.09-and prices are ,still going up, says Mrs. Mary Harrison, consumer ed- ucation specialist, Florida Cooperative Extension Ser- vice. Last year prices soared for raw sugar, so it was inevit- able that consumers should be feeling the pinch at the retail level now.

Pate Stationed at Homestead Lt. i'rank Wayne Pate, son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Pate of Port St, Joe, has arrived for duty at Homestead AFB, after a 12 month tour at Nakon Phanom, Thailand. While in Thailand, Lt. Pate served with the 621 TAC Con- trol Squadron, controlling air- to-air intercepts and tanker rendezvous. At Homestead, he will be serving with the 644th Radar Squadron with head- quarters at Richmond Air Station. Joining him at Homestead are his wife Jae, and daughter Meredith Ann. the film "The Gospel Road" to be shown on Sunday, Nov. 3 at Long Avenue Baptist Causing ugar Pr both cane and sugar beets, retail sugar prices are ex- pected to continue to be high. Also affected will be prices for candy, baked goods, soft drinks, and desert foods such as gelatins and puddings, Mrs. Harrison points out. What is behind this great de- mand for sugar? First of all, sugar was involved in many speculative deals on the world market early this spring. Trading was particu- larly heavy in the Middle East, where oil-rich buyers were investing in sugar. Another important factor is that the world demand for sugar is steadily increasing as standards of living im- prove in developing coun- tries. In the U. S. the large segment of the population under 35 provides a very strong market for soft drinks and candies Also, the gov- ernment food stamp program now makes it possible for many families to buy sugar- coated cereals and candies, formerly considered luxury items, and not offered through welfare programs. The restricted use of artifi- cial sweeteners, especially in soft drinks, has restored much of the demand for nat- ural sugar, Mrs. Harrison points out. The soft drink in- dustry consumes about one- third of all the industrial sugar we have. The Federal Sugar Act has Sr g Church. The showing will begin at 7:30 p.m. "The Gospel Road". distri- Those *ices? been an artificial stabilizer for the sugar industry during the past 40 years. But it will expire this coming December 31. The acreage allotments provided for by the sugar act assured farmers minimum prices for their beets, even before the beets were plant- ed. However, starting in 1975, growers will be free to in- crease their plantings in hopes of receiving higher prices. On the other hand, they may reduce their acreage because they expect prices to climb. And since beets are the source of about 30 percent of our raw sugar, beet far- mers may drastically change the supply situation by decid- ing to use their land for other crops. Corn, wheat and, soy- beans, for instance, are very profitable, crops to grow right now. Sugar .cane growers can't change to other crops as easily as beet growers, since a warmer climate is invol- ved. However, the cane pro- ducers are faced with limited grinding facilities. It costs about 45 million dollars to build just one\grinding mill. Investors are not anxious to spend that amount of money without assurance that prices will continue high. So-what's the story of sugar? Mrs. Harrison thinks consumers can expect high prices for some time to come. buted by World Wide Pic- tures, was conceived and pro- duced by Johnny Cash and his wife, June Carter Cash, whose desire was to tell the story of Jesus Christ in a realistic and meaningful way. The film is a unique blend of scripture-based narrative, an abundant supply of spe- cially written songs, and a series of in-depth character portrayals, with Israel itself as the mixing bowl. You are there, walking be- side the Jordan and the Sea of Galilee; you are there, seeing Him in many human situations that establish a practical and personal rap- port with every viewer. You are there, being introduced to the disciples, and gaining in- sights into their varied per- sonalities. You are there, ex- periencing the highly charged emotional impact of the trial before Pilate, and becoming so personally involved that you feel sympathetic pain when Robert Elfstrom, in an outstanding portrayal of Christ, suffers the physical attack that precedes the Crucifixion. Adding to the effectiveness of "The Gospel Road" in its endeavor to convey reality for this day are: the fascinat- ing treatment of the Cruci- fixion, making this tragedy an event of significance that reaches from its own time across the years to take on meaning for all men of all ages; and the songs and background music of Johnny Cash and other outstanding musicians, whose contempo- rary style is not out of keep- ing with the story. .a story that reveals that His darkest day has become our bright- est.
