Tax Equalization

Decision Nov. 20

Gulf County's Board of Equalization will meet
next Wednesday, November 20 to decide on a hearing
date for receiving objections from those who think
their property is assessed unfairly according to
County Commission chairman Silas Player. At the
meeting, the committee will be instructed at to their
duties and how they will go about the equalization
process by a representative from the State Revenue
Department.
After the hearing date is set, those who have filed
petitions of objection will be given five days written
notice of when and where to appear before the
committee.
Chairman Player pointed out that only written
petitions for relief will be considered at the hearings.
"People may still approach, the Tax Assessor about
their property valuations", Player said. "The hear-
ings will be for those who failed to get the relief they,
felt they should have and hare filed petitions', of':
protest", he said.
According to the office of the Tax Assessor,
Samuel A. Patrick, 86 petitions have been filed
requesting: a hearing, with about 25 of the petitions
withdrawn after they were filed.
Attorney' William J. Rish said the petitions are
necessary since the hearings are an arm of the court
and all complaints going beyond the jurisdiction of
the Tax Assessor must be put in writing.


Copter

Crashes

A United States Army heli-
copter crashed last Thursday
afternoon at St. Joe Beach,
according to Sheriff Ray-
mond Lawrence.
SAt approximately 2 p.m.
Captain James D. Pepper
and Spec. 4 Richard Debb
were flying the test unit,
known as an AG-1C Cobra
Helicopter, over the St. Jos-
eph Peninsula when they be-
gan experiencing engine fail-
ure. Captain Pepper stated
that he did all he cbuld to
keep the "chopper" ,in the
air, and headed for the main-
land, in hopes of not having
to ditch the craft 'in St.
Joseph's Bay.
Reaching the mainland,
Captain Pepper then attempt-
ed to set the helicopter down,
but. with erratic engine, fail-
ure, was able to crash it
down on the "skids", breaking
ing one off and forcing the
copter to end up almost up-
side down. The helicopter
was determined to be a total
loss, according to Army offi-
cials.


The Gulf County Commis-
sion opposed purchase of
more property on St..Joseph
'Peninsula by the State of
Florida Tuesday and put
their disapproval in writing
in the fbrm of a Resolution to
the State Cabinet.
The Board has been in-
censed in the past by the
State's manner of operation'
of the present park on the
Northern half of the penin-
sula and their slow progress
in development of the proper-
ty as a park.
In their resolution drawn
Tuesday, the Board will offer
the voice of Gulf County as
opposing any further acquisi-
tion of Peninsula land to keep
it from being developed.
Wesley R. Ramsey made
the request that the Board
offer the Resolution saying,
"The State has drug its feet
in developing the land they.
now own and put such re-
strictions on its use as to
make it almost prohibitive
for people to have free access

State Committee Approves Point Acquisition


The southern half of the St. Joseph
Peninsula in Gulf County may have been
saved from development by last Wed-
nesday's action of the state Interagency
Planning Committee, according to a
story in the Tallahassee Democrat last
week.
The IPC.voted unanimously to quali-
fy the area for purchase under the
environmentally endangered ladds bond
program, after two citizens spoke in
favor of its preservation.
Jack Rudloe, a Panacea marine bio-
logist, told the committee that the bay


east of the peninsula supported a wide
variety of marine life and typified North
Florida marine habitat.
And another Panacea resident, Doug-
las Gleeson, said the peninsula was one
of the most beautiful places in Florida.
"I'm really proud to take visitors
there to show them what Florida is
really like," Gleeson said.
The.IPC voted to place all the pro-
perty not already owned by the state
north of the Cape San Blas lighthouse and
along St. Joseph Bay east to state road 30
on top priority for acquisition.


The northern half of the peninsula is
already a state park. But most of the
southern portion is owned by an Atlanta
group which has announced plans for a
resort development.
IPC Chairman James Pearce report-
ed however that the Nature Conservancy
in Atlanta has an option to purchase the
property, indicating an apparent willing-
ness on the part of the owners to sell.
Pearce said also a report to the com-
mittee at its last meeting, which said the
Cape San Blas lighthouse property and


another tract to the east had been de-
clared surplus, was in error.
He explained that the Coast Guard
had declared the lighthouse property sur-
plus to its needs but that the General
Services Administration has not yet
declared it surplus.
In addition, the Gulf County Commis-
sion has voted to seek acquisition of the
property if it becomes available, Pearce
said, and has had an application on file
with the Bureau of Land Management for
35 acres one mile east of the cape, which
are desired for recreational purposes.

U. S. Can't Feed World


U.S. farm and government rep-
resentatives had some tough words
last week for the World Food
Conference held in Rome, warning
that America's six percent of the
world's population should not have
to foot the bill to feed the world's
hungry.
Harold Steele, president of the
Illinois Farm Bureau, warned that
food problems "cannot be solved
with compassion alone". Someone
else said about a month ago in a
feature article that feeding the poor
of the world with hand-outs only
compounded the problem since it
encouraged the undeveloped na-
Stions to increase their populations
even more, thus increasing the'
Problem.
Nobody especially Ameri-
cans likes to see people in the
condition of a small baby on the
front page of an .area daily last
W: eek; nothing, but skin aind bones,"
too weak to take the offered breast
of its mother. It tears Americans
apart to think there are children in
this condition. But the fact is, we
can't save them all.


The Federal Government again
finds itself in the same predica-
ment which we suffer from each
and every year there will not be
enough money available to do
everything it wants to in the
current fiscal year.
But, unlike us, the Federal
Government is thinking of not
letting that situation bother them
too much, since they will merely
run in the red again. In our
situation, however, we must cut
back our desires and spending to
equal the income, which seems a
sensible solution to meet a crisis
caused by not having enough mon-
ey for all we wanted or planned to
do.
One official of the Treasury
Department remarked that, "Con-
gress will find it extremely difficult'
to resist big spending", even if it
doesn't have the money to spend.
It's unfortunate that Congress


Rather than look to America,
these people should look to their
own leaders who seem to fare all
right, even in times of famine. This
would cause one to suspect that.
leaders in the "have not" nations
are more interested in their own
condition than they are the condi-
tion of their people.
You may laugh at this, but the
leaders of America were interested
in providing for the people of this
nation. They encouraged develop-
ments which would help the people
to have something to eat and a roof
over their heads. If America and
its leaders could accomplish the
feat of providing for the needs of its
people, it seems only reasonable
that other nations could, too, if they
tried.
We applaud the leaders repre-
senting the United States at the
conference who have sounded the
warning that these nations .must ,.
* begin to learn to stand on their own :
feet. Perhaps if they had this
project to occupy their minds and
their time, they would have less
time to dream up new ways to hate
America.


doesn't have our creditors; they
help us in these matters by refus-
ing to sell if we don't have the
money to buy. This keeps us both
out of financial trouble. Thusly, our
dollar will still buy as much as
anybody's and our creditors are
still able to stay in business since
they are not burdened down with
our credit which we can't pay.
We think the greatest need of
the Nation today is a Constitutional
Amendment refusing to allow Con-
gress to spend more than the
normal taxing program can pro-
duce except in the time of war or
disaster. Even then, a time limit
should be imposed for the debt to
be paid.
If this were the case, those
dollars we manage to collect would
still be worth 100 cents here in
America and no telling how much
throughout the remainder of the
world.


Low Water Forces


River Traffic Halt


DOTHAN, ALA.-Low
water has forced a virtual
shut-down of transportation
on the Apalachicola, Chatta-
hoochee, Flint river system,
says Vice President Reid
Smith of the Tri-Rivers
Waterway Development
Association.
The interruption comes at a
time when a record soybean
harvest is jamming area
grain elevators and railroad
cars are in short supply. Just
as 'critical, said Smith, who

pany at Cedar Springs, Ga.,


is the need of fuel-consuming

Smith headed a group of
river users who conferred

Explains

Electric

Charges

Florida Power Corporation
representative Sam Scott of
Monticello showed the Port
St. Joe Rotary Club how an
electric bill is figured and
coded on the statement to the
customer last Thursday at
their regular luncheon meet-
ing in the St. Joe Motel.
Scott used a slide presenta-
tion to point how the bill is
figured from actual reading,
in cases where the bill must
estimated and how the codes
on the statement can be
interpreted.
Along with the slide pro-
gram on the bills, was infor-
mation about, why the bill
varies from month to month.
This is mostly d6e to the fuel
allowance figured into the
bill. Scott said the utility
fuels mostly with fuel oil,
along with some natural gas.
The oil comes from Venezue-
la. Scott said the oil was
costing Florida Power $1.68
per barrel in late 1972 and the
last delivered was $10.86. The
base bill is figured with fuel
costing $1.68, with the re-
maining $9.18 showing up in
the fuel adjustment.
Scott said a barrel of oil
will generate 535 KWH of
electricity. One KWH of elec-
tricity is the amount needed
to burn 10 100-watt bulbs for
one hour.
Scott said Florida Power
had cut back on expenses
everywhere possible in order
to provide service at a rea-
sonable cost, but that the
costs were catching up with
them. "If we don't get a rate
increase soon, we're in big
financial trouble". Scott said
most of the utility's financial
troubles stem from a pro-
gram of reducing rates just
before the present upsurge of
prices and fuel began. "Now
it's hurting us", he said. One
of the economies was in
laying off nearly 1,000 work-
ers at the firm's new atomic
generating plant now under
construction. "The irony of
this is that the atomic plant
would relieve some of the
burdensome fuel costs we are
now experiencing", Scott
said.
Guests of the club were
Carl Pettaway of Apalachi-
cola, David Carl Gaskin of
Wewahitchka and Jim Cox of
Port St. Joe.


ETAOIN SHRDLU
jr~, F by WESLEY R. RAMSEY


Maybe now, win me etectons over, things
will return to something like normal for the
next year and half at which time, we will begin
the favorite game of Americans all over again.
One of the things which needs to be done
now, is for the campaign workers to gather up
their signs and posters and dispose of them to
rid the city and its environs of the unsightly
clutter a used up, water soaked, torn and wind
whipped campaign poster can cause.
Jesse Stone came by the office Thursday
morning to show me a car load of Stone posters
he had gathered up. Jesse said that so far as he
knows he had them all. I hope others follow
your example, Jesse.

I surely don't know how I let it slip by me.
C. W. Roberts' broken arm, that is.
With C. W.'s occupation of heavy construc-
tion, it wouldn't seem too out of place to see
him walking around with his arm in a sling.
It's just liable to happen at any time, messing
around on construction jobs and operating
heavy equipment. Nobody thought to question
C. W. why he had his arm in a sling last month
and part of the month before.
You should have asked.
Do you know how he broke it? Jumping on
a Po-Go stick! No kidding, jumping on a Po-Go
stick!
I reckon C. W. to be in his middle forties.
Some may say his late thirties, but I'll say he
is in his middle forties. What is a grown man of
this stage of his maturity doing jumping
around on a Po-Go stick? Even if he wasn't of
his present sober years, C. W. just doesn't
strike us as Po-Go stick operating material.
They tell me a man or woman usually looks
for something entirely different from their
everyday events to relax with. Possibly C. W.
figured the Po-Go stick was at the other side of
the spectrum from what he was accustomed to
every day and decided to do a little relaxing
and try for a little enjoyment.
If his taste continues to drift in this
direction, maybe Santa Claus could bring him a
tricycle for Christmas.

I saw a reference in one of the area weekly
papers this past week to the ten cent candy
bar. I believe it was in brother Will's Twin-City


News, but I didn't clip it out so I can't be sure.
The article referred to something being all
gone like the ten cent candy bar. Has it been
that long since the five cent candy bar?
When we go to comparing things, we
usually go way back in our memory to get the
greatest extreme possible. I remember well
when a 20c candy bar was only a nickel, don't
you? Since brother Will is only a year younger
than I, his memory can reach back that far,
also.
He, like me, should be able to remember
when a package of chewing gum was a nickel;
that nickle candy bar was just about all a kid
could eat; a 10c stamp was only three cents
and an eight cent post card cost only a penny.
Admittedly that was back during the days
when they put natural ingredients in the candy
bars and chewing gum and prior to ZIP code.
That could have made the difference.

I thought the armed services were suppos-
ed to serve us citizens of the USA who pay
their salaries and expenses.
Thursday afternoon, we, like 500 others
went to the Beach to view .the downed
helicopter and take a picture for the paper. We
approached the beach where the chopper was
lying over on its side and some young punk (I
say 'Punk' because that's the way he acted)
with Corporal stripes on his arms and a big
pistol on his side, stuck up his hand and
shouted, "Stop there, don't come any closer,"
like maybe we had come fo haul the copter off
or something. No "Please stay behind th
marker", or "would you mind standing back
until the authorities get here", or any of those
similar requests which most people are glad to
honor.
We took a couple of pictures from this
vantage point of 50 or so yards away and the
"Punk" decided we shouldn't do that and con-
fiscated the film out of our camera saying,
"This may be classified no pictures".
Maybe it was classified, but our camera got no
closer that the 500 people who came to stare. If
he was interested in preserving the secrecy of
some component in the helicopter, he was
failing miserably. If he was trying to be
obnoxious, he succeed admirably.

A PERSONAL


"THANK YOU"


FROM--


JERRY THOMAS


My running mate, Mike Thompson, and I
wish to personally thank each of you -Democrats,
Republicans, Third Party, Independents for
your vote and enthusiastic support.
Our cause was right! The endorsement of
our fundamental moral and fiscal beliefs by the
citizens of this county is a clear indication that
rural America understands the internal dangers
facing our state and Nation.
We owe it to ourselves and future generations
to continue our fight to preserve constitutional
conservatism.









PD. POL. ADV. Paid for by Jerry Thomas Campaign Fund Rep.


Creek Indian words, ito opil-
wa, meaning "swamp tree."
Four kinds of tupelo grow in
Florida, two of which are
valuable as timber species.
One other, the white tupelo or
Ogeechee tupelo, inhabits
sloughs and swamps and sup-
plies and rare tupelo honey
for which Florida is famous.
Only one area of the world
grows extensive stands of
Ogeechee tupelo. This is Lhe
Big Bend area of Florida in
the Apalachicola River Val-
ley, extending to the lowlands
of south Georgia.
The Division of Forestry,
Florida Department of Agri-
culture and Consumer Ser-
vices, is studying the possi-
bility of outplanting the Ogee-
chee tupelo seedlings in
wider areas of the state.
This project could begin as
early as 1975, according to
Forester Wallace Milton.
Production of tupelo honey
-along with orange blossom,
palmetto and gallberry honey
is responsible, for a $14 mil-
lion industry for the Sunshine
state.
Tupelo blossom honey is an
exceptionally fine grade of
honey which never crystal-
lizes as "sugars". A small
amount added to other honey
flavors will prolong their
freshness and wholesome-
ness.
And get this, foresters say
it's the flowers of the
male tupelo tree that supply
the nectar for the remarkable
honey. Not the girl flowers!
However, the scientific
name "Nyssa" should con-
sole women's libbers. It
means "water nymph."
This botanical name ap-
plies to all tupelos, including
two which grow in the dryer
uplands of north Florida.
These two common forest
trees are the black tupelo (or
black-gum) and the water

tupelo. These are extremely
hard hardwoods, used com-
mercially as timber.
It is a further oddity of
tupelos that the black tupelo
has a tough but lightweight
wood that is in demand for
chopping blocks and railroad
ties. The wood of the water
tupelo near the hollow, flared
base is so soft it is used for
fish net floats and hollow
kitchenware!
Resembling sweetgum
from a distance, the black
tupelo has brilliant fall foli-
age of scarlet and purple
leaves. The fruit of the black
tupelo is tart and acid-like,
which explains the common
name for it-sour gum.
Black-gum honey is mar-
keted, although it is not of the
quality of white tupelo honey.
Like the sweetgum, black-
gum is a tree that is vital the
veneer industry and the fruit-
wood furniture market. Un-
like Ogeechee tupelo, it is
found across a wide segment
of the Eastern United States.
Its wood is often used for
berry crates, vegetable bas-
kets, flooring and as the
underlying core for more
expensive veneer woods.
Fossils of tupelo trees have
been found in all parts of the
world. But today only one
kind of tupelo grows outside
the United States.
Thus all four species of
tupelo found in Florida de-
serve to be prized and per-
petuated. Reforestation is
largely by natural propaga-
tion, although the Division of
Forestry offers seedlings for
one variety, water tupelo
(Nyssa aquatica).
The tupelo is a good choice
for areas subject to flooding,
where bird populations need
to be encouraged, where
speed of growth is not a
factor and where fall color is
an object.

ing seedlings, contact your

Many times we've seen an offi,
,cial's call proven right on instant'
replay. Sometimes they're wrong-'
but most times right. If ever -a
__|mgroup of officials were "bailed-out'"
J ~of a sticky situation, by the camera.-
men, it was in Saturday's Ohio
State vs. Michigan State game. The
film proved Ohio State could not:
have gotten off, in time, what
would have been the winning TD.
Can you imagine the uproar,
Woody Hayes and the O.S. alumni would have put up, if
the cameramen hadn't been there. The guys in th.e
striped shirts usually do a very good job and in this
particular situation, they're under pressure too you-
know, they were 100 per cent right.
I agree with Pepper Rogers, on James Michner's
comments, concerning pro football coaches being more
knowledgable than college coaches. It kind of turned me
off. The noted author is doing a book on the sport and
quite possibly wanted to create a little conversation
about it. Not taking anything away from the Shulas,
Aliens, Landrys, etc., they've pFoven they're great. But
so have the Bryants, Royals and McKays. And what Mr.
Michner apparently overlooked was that, by the time. a
pro-player is drafted, he has already had the benefit of.
four to eight years experience with the colleges and high:
schools. Some coaches,-regardless of their level of com-:
petition, consistently produce winning teams. I think.,
they would do so, no matter where they competed. But..
most coaches produce according to the material they;:
have to work with, sometimes that's good, sometimes..
not.. sogod


not so good.

estry Supervisor, discussed

urged the Board to contact
his office in Panama City if

vice Officer, presented, his

ported that his work load is
heavy and he would like to be

mation available. After fur-
ther discussion, Comm. Gra-
ham moved the Board nomi-
nate Albert Thames as a full

second. The Chairman direct-
ed Mr. Thames to present the

The Corps dredge "Guth-
rie" is working on the river
seven days a week.
"We are confident the
Corps of Engineer is doing
everything possible with what
they have to do with," Smith
said.
Rains that usually begin by
Nov. 15, appear to be the only
hope for short-term relief.
With rain, District Engineer
Col. Drake Wilson said, the
water level would "come up
fast."
Col. Wilson said it was too
late to stop filling the new
West Point dam on the upper
Chattahoochee and that re-
leasing more water from Jim
Woodruff dam at Chattahoo-
Schee, would lower the level of
the river behind, it.
River users and the Corps
officials agreed that a long-
range solution would be con-
struction of a low-level dam
near Blountstown and widen-
ing of the channel in the
worst trouble area from 100
feet to 150 feet.
However, the governor and
cabinet of Florida have gone
on record as opposed to a
dam on the Apalachicola.
The Corps also is consider-
ing raising the pool at Buford
dam north of Atlanta by two
feet and using that water to
supplement the Apalachicola
navigation channel in dry
periods. Use of water from

CHANGE MADE IN TIME
FOR CATHOLIC MASS
St. Joseph Catholic an-
nounces a change in its sche-
dule for holding Mass.
The new schedule provides
for the saying of Mass on
Saturday afternoon at 5:30
and again on Sunday morning
at 10:30 a.m. Coffee will be
served in the Halll following
the Sunday morning Mass.


Lake Lanier is as sore a sub-
ject in North Georgia as the
proposal for a dam on the
Apalachicola is in Florida.
Below Buford dam, engi-
neers have closed the gates
at the new West Point dam
and are allowing it to fill
gradually so they can top
trees at the proper height,

leaving stumps as fish habi-
tat.

Battle for Fund Control


Two government agencies
fought it out Tuesday mor-
ning for management of the
Manpower funds coming into
Gulf County.
At present the funds and
program are handled by a
committee appointed by the
County Commission, working
through a three -county dis-
trict composed of Gulf, Cal-
houn and Franklin counties.
The Northwest Florida Devel-
opment Council is trying to
persuade 11 area counties to
form a consortium with the
Development Council as the


management team for the
group and its Manpower op-
erations.
Currently in 1974-75 fiscal
year, Gulf County will have
available approximately
$123,324.00 in Head Start
money.
Mrs. Laura Geddie, who
heads the management com-
mittee here in Gulf County
and Mrs. Ann Sherry Herring
who is a full time employee
of the program argued for
leaving' the set-up as it is
now. Mrs. Geddie felt the
county was receiving more
attention under the present


program than they would
under an 11 county district.
Mrs. Herring said that at
present 44 positions are now
filled in the county. "This
program offers employment
for students while still attend-
ing school and discourages
drop outs',', Mrs. Herring
said. "As a matter of fact, a
student must remain in
school to be eligible for em-
ployment", she pointed out.
Richard Dunn made the
pitch for the consortium say-
ing such an arrangement
would provide more manage-
ment money (which would go
to the Development Council


or whoever provided manage-
ment services) would elimi-
nate state control and make
a committee composed of
representatives from every
county invblved. responsible
for allocation 'of funds.
Mrs. Geddie countered that
the present committee has
secured approval for every


program they have presented
to the state and the present
plan is working smoothly.
She urged the Board to leave 1
control over the program as
it is.
The Board voted to leave
control of the government
financed program under the '
county committee

Sharks Suffer Fourth


Season to Marianna Bulldogs, 6-0


Both the Port St. Joe evenly matched last Friday
Sharks and the Marianna night, as the Dogs handed the
Bulldogs seemed to be orettv Sharks their fourth loss of the


last year.
Florida attained 77.3 per-
cent of its 1974 sales goal
September 30 with yearly
sales of $114 million-a 3.1
per cent increase over the
first three quarters of last
year.
J. Ted Cannon, Gulf County
Volunteer Savings Bonds
Chairman reported Septem-
ber sales in the county were
$13,536. The county achieved
78.9 per cent of its 1974 sales
goal September 30.


Mark Wimberly cages running Dog


year, 6-0.
The Sharks seem, now, to
have a habit of threatening
their opponent in the opening
minutes of the ballgame, but
failing to push the pigskin
across the goal line. They did
it in Monticello, then against
Chipley, again in Blountstown
and again in Marianna last
Friday night.
Marianna took the opening
kick-off and fumbled on the
second play, with the Sharks
Ronald Daniels covering the
Bulldog fumble on the Dog 20
yard line.
Farmer moved the ball to
the seven yard line in four
plays but a penalty pushed
them back to the 13. Two
plays later and Farmer had
carried to the one yard line.
The next play, the Sharks
fumbled and a golden oppor-
tunity to put a quick score on
the board was gone. It could
very well have been the
winning score, since kicker
Mike Todd hasn't missed a
point after conversion this
season.
The Bulldogs seemed to
take a page out of the Sharks'
book and moved down field in
two giant steps. Kirk Hart-.
well ripped off a 55 yard run
and was stopped by Steve
Cloud, the last man between
he and the goal. The Dogs
then drove on to the seven


before a penalty pushed them
back. Their early drive was
stalled on the 31.
The Bulldogs had another
opportunity in the waning
minutes of the half when they
took a Bill Norton punt on
their own 46. The first play, a
pass from Ricky Hatcher to
Ronnie Myrick was good for
37 yards and the Dogs were
on the Shark 17. But the stout
Shark defense held and the
Dogs were foiled again.
With only 56 seconds left in
the game, the-Dogs started
from their own 34 and an-
other Hatcher to Myrick pass
put the Dogs on the Shark
where John Shackleford haul-
ed Myrick down on the 12 be-
fore he could score. But on
the very next play, Willie
Mack came boiling around
end to score with only 49
seconds left in the half. His
kick for the extra point'
failed.
In the second half, the
Sharks solved the pass threat
which had netted the Bull-
dogs nearly 100 yards in the
first half, by hard charging of
the quarterback by lineback-
ers Mark Wimberly, Steve
Cloud, and John Shackleford;
linemen Wayne McKiernan
and Tony Harrison joined the
crowd, making the Marianna
quarterback a mite nervous.

But still, the Sharks could

These thoughtful tributes also
