"If we don't have some sort of plan drawn up within 120 days, the present land fill operation can be forced to shut down by the state.

Pridgeon said Tuesday that all of the 1974 tax bills have been put in the mail, after nearly a three month delay. Pridgeon said that in the rush to get the bills out, 'someone may have been mis- sed. If so, they should call the Tax Collector's office to get their bill sent out. The four.per cent discount will prevail through' the month of January, after which, the full tax bill will be due. The tax bills become delinquent in March. County Recreation Sponsors League The Gulf County Recrea- tion Department is sponsor- ing a Biddy Basketball lea- gue for boys in the fourth through the sixth grade. Reg- ular league play will begin Thursday, Jan. 16, and run through Feb. 18. A tourna- ment is planned for February 20 and 21.

Gulf County experienced its first traffic death of 1975. A Mobile man was pronounced dead on arrival at Bay Memorial Hospital Sunday afternoon, after wrapping his 1969 sports car around a pecan tree in Wewa- hitchka. According to Florida Highway Patrol Homicide Investigator Ken Murphy, Thomas G. Hardy, 34, of Mobile, Alabama, was the victim of the- one car accident which happened at 2:00 p.m., Sunday after- noon. According to Murphy, Hardy was driving at an excessive rate of speed on the old Panama City Highway when he failed to negotiate a curve and left the road on the left side. The car slammed sideways into a The rear of the car remained at the pecan tree while the forward section travelled another 236 feet. Michael Charles Garrett, 19, of Wewa- hitchka was thrown out of the passenger compartment as it skidded away from the site of the impact and was taken to the hospital with a skull fracture and other injuries. Hardy's body was lifted from the wreckage where it came to a halt. Both were taken to Bay Memorial by Gulf County Emergency Ambulance Service. Wewahitchka Police Chief, J. H. Glass investigated the accident, assisted by Troop- er Murphy. Exemption homestead exemption from $5,000 to $10,000 and to in- crease homestead exemption for those 65 and over, totally or permanently disabled or blind from $10,000 to $15,000 dollars. Mr. Patrick thought 'this petition was necessary due to the State law that states that property should be assessed at 100 per cent market value. The homestead exemption has not kept pace with the increase in land value and construction cost. Mr. Patrick feels this is an effective way to show state legislation the concern of growing property value and taxes. Go by the Assessor's office between 9 a.m. and five p.m. to sign the petition. There will be copies of the petition circulated throughout the county. If you have any questions concerning the petition con- tact Joyce Lester of the As- sessor's office. to meet requirements. Daniell seated, "They're really on me. It's terrible. I've been trying to conform with their law and so far I have managed to keep up, but it's getting worse every- day". The Board must now come up with a solution for solid waste disposal which will meet the requirements of the new law. The recent study made by the Gulf County Planning Commission also touched on this situation and recommended a compacting center with hauling and bur- ial of wastes in an approved site. This is the most popular solution at the present time with the Commission. ACCEPT PLAN The Board formally ac- cepted the plan drawn up recently by this same plan- ning commission and reacted favorably to a letter from Barry Boswell, director of the Northwest Florida Plann- ing and Development Com- mission for offered aid in implementing some of the needs recommended b3 the planners. From conversation by the Board members, it appears as if the first attention will be given to drawing up some sort of regulations governing subdivisions in the count\ This matter earned the atten- tion of the Board since a group is now attempting to get approval of a new subdi- vision in the South end of the county before they come up with a final plat. The subdivision would de- velop 365 acres in four stages .over period of seven to 12 years. 'The documents pre- sented to' the Board thus far do not contain provisions for sanitary needs of such a development, according to the Board. The developers say they will provide these services as they are needed, but the Board emphasized there is nothing to require them to do so at the present time. Boswell 'said the county needs to implement some of the suggestions for the coun- ty's protection in the future. The first suggestion in the plan was completed Tuesday when the Board adopted a building code. The Southern Standard Building Code was adopted which would apply to all buildings constructed in the county with the exception of non residential farm build- ings.. Fees of $1.00 per $1,000 of value were set for inspec- tion fees, with a minimum fee of $3.00 set. INSURANCE PLAN The County's insurance co- ordinator, Frank Graddy told the Board Tuesday the coun- ty is now liable for suit for damages and should consider insurance to cover any such probable damages. Graddy said, "The county is no longer immune to suit as of the first of the year." He had applied for such a policy for the Board until he could present his information to them, but it was void after Tuesday of this week if they decided not to take out the coverage. On Graddy's in- formation that the premium for such insurance would probably be around $8,000, they decided to hold off until more definite information could be obtained. Graddy said he would have definite information in just a very few days and would get it- to all Commissioners for their study. The Board will make the decision as to whether to purchase the insurance or be self insured at the next meet- ing. Graddy said the new law sets the county's liability at $50,000 and $100,000 bodily injury and $50,000 property damage. AMBULANCE REPORT The Gulf County Volunteer Ambulance Service presented a quarterly report to the Board which showed the ser- vice had served 52 patients in 45 call-outs in their first three months of operation. The squad had logged 120 hours per squad member per month; had travelled 1,631 miles at an operations cost of $506.00. Commissioner Silas Player observed that the ambulance service 'was receiving kind words for their services. He pointed out that Emergency Medical Technician training would begin in February for all squad members. OTHER BUSINESS In other items of business, the Board: -Refused to maintain roads in the Red Bull Island Subdivision since it is in the City of Wewahitchka and does not meet standards re- quired by the county. -Contracted with a laboia- tory to perform county au:' topsies with 60 per cent of the expense to be borne by the state. -Received a right of way deed from John Dill for Bud Brockett Landing Road for paving. The paving will be done by the county road crews. -Heard a request from Walter Stafford for drainage relief at his home in White City and agreed to see if some arrangements could be made to give him relief. -Agreed to put the Road Department and Mosquito Control. Department em-. ployees on a 10. hour a day, four day a week work sche- dule for a period of 60 days to see how the plan would work out. John Dill presents road right of way County Commission. deeds to the Star Photo Food Stamps Being Changed, Re-Issued The U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will re- place the current 50 cents, $2 and $5 food stamp series with a $1, $5 and $10 series on March 1. USDA's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) said that the larger denominations were prompted by the volume of coupons needed to meet in- creased food stamp allot- ments, paper shortages, and increased production and shipping costs. The new food stamps- brown ($1), purple ($5), and blue-green ($10)-use a more sophisticated design to deter counterfeiting. They are in- corporated into redesigned, revalued coupon books. All current coupons not issued by February 28 will be collected and destroyed. FNS said that food stamp recip- ients must spend their cur- rent food stamps by June 30 since retailers will not accept any old coupons after that date. Authorized food stamp stores will use the $1 coupons for making change instead of the current 50 cent coupon and credit slips of 99 cents or less for change under $1. FNS advised retailers to redeem the current food coupons :as soon as possible; banks will continue to accept them for redemption until August 1.

Circuit Court Keeping Up With Work Despite Heavy Case Load Operations of the circuit and county courts of the six- county Fourteenth Judicial Circuit compare favorably with courts in other circuits throughout the state. SInformation compiled by the Supreme Court for the first 10 months of 1974 shows the 14th Circuit ranks seventh ;in the state in the number of cases filed per circuit judge, .'although this circuit is 18th in population and 17th in the :number of circuit judges. -iThere are 20 circuits in the -state. : Of the 20 circuits in the 'state this circuit is third in geographical area to be .covered by each circuit judge, and sixth in the amount of population per judge. "Even though our circuit ranks above the state ave- rage in case filings per cir- cuit judge," according to Bob Brown, 14th Circuit Court Administrator, "we are well below the state average on pending cases per judge, indi- cating our circuit is handling cases expeditiously and avoiding undue backlogs and delays." Of the 39 counties in the state with single-judge county courts, Jackson County has the highest' ranking in the state in case filings. Indeed, the case filings in Jackson' County county court for the first 10 months of 1974 ex- ceeded those of two counties which'have two judges each. All county courts in the cir- cuit are below the state ave- rage in pending cases per judge, with the exception of Jackson, indicating again, Brown. said, cases are mov- ing through the local courts at least as well, and gener- ally better than the state's average courts. * PAGE TWO Training Session for Big Bend W&S Oper; Water and sewage works operators from the Big Bend area will gather in Tallahas- see for a two-day training session next Tuesday.

St. Joe Beach SJan. 11, 1975 SDear Editor:- For a number of years, I have had the distinct and unhappy pleasure of having to read most of your racist-right wing- conservative editorials. Much to my dis- - pleasure, you have consistently and sys- tematically employed this three page "nightmare" to further exploit existing red neck minds, which constitute 80 per cent of this town's population. You have, by way of the free press, declared your- self Judge and Jury on many issues which you have improperly researched for salient facts-or is this another method or ploy to further placate your red neck constituency. Perhaps you need to begin, once in your life, to do some token good. Why not upgrade your "three page night- mare" by publishing factual, intelligent, vital and relative local national issues with some slant of moderation. Historically, racfsts demagogues and red necks have always attempted to dis- allow justice because of inate ignorance and prejudicial backgrounds. The cases of Pitts-Lee and Knowles are no less examples. Pitts and Lee were forced by "system" red necks to confess to a crime which they did not commit-and you know it! A black woman, a suspect- ed accomplice, was "acquitted" and paid by polluted politicians to lie for the prosecution-was later forced by the same pollutants to leave town. The pol- lutants are still paying her money to remain "quiet". ($6,000 in a Havana, Florida bank) Let's stop the coverup' Knowles, however, was "lynched" by the same kind of pollutants-without trial before jury. Clearly, it appears that non-good-do'ers, demagogues and red necks like yourself preclude our jury and court system from exercising its responsibilities to the American public- white, black and all others. By the way, lynchers, racists, dema- gogues have always been analagous with the term mob-not good-do'ers. Yours truly, Michael Moran P.S. Like most demagogues and red necks, you deplore criticism and I know I will not see this in,"Letters to the Editor." Regarding this, I have told my friends of this letter to you and to watch for your yellow stripe. (You flatter us by saying 80 per cent of the people of this area agree with us. Either we have persuad- ed the people or they have persuaded us. Since we put our opinion in black and white here each week for over 7,000 people to read. can you still classify us as yellow? Our opinion on this Pitts, Lee matter you refer to, was molded by personal interviews of the investigating officers reporting the incident when it happened, several sessions in court during the trial and the opinion of two juries. We might add that the two men had some of the best lawyers in the nation at their last trial. If you have any new information by which you have drawn a different opinion of their guilt we're sure Gover- nor Askew's special investigating com- mittee would like to have it. From what we read they are having no success at all in discovering any doubt as to their guilt.-Ed.) A TRIBUTE TO PORT ST. JOE I am a visitor to this section of Florida and I must say all of the people are so friendly and helpful. This is not true of many sections of our country. People here seem to be more thoughtful. of others. I have been at our little house at Overstreet. My husband, James J. Walsh, loved this place. He spent many happy hours fishing in Wetappo Creek. He is now deceased, but our memories of Port St. Joe and the beaches will still linger. Thanks for thoughtfulness, we need more of this in this old world. We are all in this old world only a short time. It behooves us to do all we can while we are passing through. "And at last when we are program- med to stand before the Great Computer in the sky, may we hear the final read out say that though we may be spindled and mutilated, at least we did not fold." Mrs. Clara Walsh Rt. 1, Crossville, TN 38555 Visiting with me was my grandson, Dan Williams. Former Resident Dies Following Surgery Samuel Floyd McCalvin, 16, died-December 31 in Don- alsonville as a result of heart failure following minor sur- gery. He was a native of Port St. Joe and attended schools here until two years ago when he and his family moved to Donalsonville, Georgia. Funeral services were held Thursday, Jan. 2, at Union Missionary Baptist Church in Colquitt with the Reverends Hubert Moss and J. W. Miller officiating. Prayers were led by the Reverends Don Butler of Huntsville, Alabama and Robert Cary of Tampa. Inter- ment followed in the church cemetery with Evans Funeral Home in charge of arrange- ments. Survivors include his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Her- man McCalvin; a sister, Eliz- Sammy McCalvin abeth McCalvin; a brother, Tommy McCalvin, All of Don- alsonville; paternal grand- father, J. T. McCalvin of Colquitt, Ga.; maternal grandparents, Howard Pick- ren of Blountstown; Mrs. Vera Pickren of Donalson- ville; and great grandmother, Dora McCullough of Donal- sonville, Ga. Board Saves Money Parolees and those on pro- bation in the State of Florida have increased from 20,000 to 62,412 in only four years, according to Jim Howard,. Parole and Probation officer in Gulf County. "There are now 13,500 incarcerated in a prison system designed for 10,000", Howard said. Howard said Florida at- tracts criminals. "There are 15 agencies of organized crime operating in our state" he told the Rotary Club last . Thursday. Many of those in trouble with the law came from out of state. "The parole and probation system saves the state money since those, un- der supervision of the agency would cost the state much more per day in jail than they are costing under super- vised freedom. Howard said the -new re- quirement of pre-sentence in- vestigations for all convicted criminals takes up 70 per cent of the officers' time. "The board made 130,000 pre- sentence investigations last year", Howard said. Guests of the club were Dr. Richard Morley of Panama City and Jack Peebles of Jacksonville. Pvt. Jackson Gets Training Private Anthony J. Jack- son, nephew of Mr. and Mrs. Capers Allen, 171 Avenue E, Port St. Joe, completed eight' weeks of advanced individual training at the U. S. Army Armor Center, Ft. Knox, Kentucky. During the training, stu- dents learn the duties of a tank crewman, including the firing of the tank's armament and small weapons. They also receive instruction in field radio operation, map reading and tank mainte- nance and repair. Letters to the Editor ETA -- I spent a few minutes last Sunday reading Tallahassee Democrat editor Malcolm John- son's capsule form of what had happened in the world during 1974. Editor Johnson gets up this retrospect of the proceeding year each January and prints it in the Democrat as well as delivering the newsy items to area civic clubs. I like to read Johnson's capsule of the previous year since he always includes some small insignificant item others miss, which make the piece entertaining reading as well as being informative. In his 1975 edition of the annual piece, Johnson noted that apparently the practice of "streaking" has faded from the scene. He also noted that probably Florida State University could claim the dubious distinction of "invent- ing" streaking. Johnson should have gone beyond his clip- pings of the year before to find the origin of streaking. Florida State students merely put a new wrinkle on an activity which was first recorded during Jesus' days on the earth. If Editor Johnson had picked up his Bible and turned to the book of Mark, chapter 14, verses 51 and 52, he would have found these words: "A certain young man, dressed only in a linen cloth, was following Jesus. They tried to arrest him, but he ran away naked, leaving the linen cloth behind." (From the Good News for Modern Man translation). So there you have it: the first recorded incident of streaking. Tomorrow is Arbor Day in Florida. That means it's time to begin ,planting trees. My wife has already had me at work with this chore, even if it wasn't Arbor Day when we started. Last week, she found what she said was a magnolia tree growing out behind the house and put in for me to go get it and move it into the yard. Needless to say, this chore took about a week-six days and 20-hours getting me to get started and three hours and 45 minutes for me to get in the frame of mind, then 15 minutes to move the tree. After a project of that magnitude, I had to ,Joe OIN SHRDLU by WESLEY R. RAMSEY sit down and rest for a while. Any job that takes a full week to accomplish just plain tires me out. I still don't think the tree was a magnolia, though. Most of this week-long project was spent in trying to convince her it wasn't. After I got it in the ground last Thursday evening, I came up with what I thought was the last word when I said, "I still don't think it's a magnolia." Frenchie ended the argument by observing, "Well if it isn't, it's a bay, and that's just about as good." You can't argue with logic like that when what you wanted in the first place was a magnolia tree. The Super Bbwl is over and Pittsburgh is the football champions, after a two year reign by the Miami Dolphins. The Super Bowl, as usual, drew unprecedented interest. Nearly everybody I talked to was planning a Sunday afternoon at home to watch the "big game". That's right where I was. Terry Bradshaw, the Steelers' quarterback swore he would- not shave or get a haircut until the Steelers won the Super Bowl. I guess the hair and beard had a sort of Samson-like effect on him, since he was certainly "super" in the Super Bowl. If the players in the league get in their minds that the hair and beard is what gave the Steelers the power, we can expect to see a beard and long flowing locks on every professional, college and high school football player next season. At a time when the long hair seemed to be fading out, the Steelers just may have given it a new shot in the chin. Now that the Super Bowl is over, does that mean we can expect no more football games on TV until July? A parting word. I noticed this past week reading about the resignation of the Postmas- ter General that he predicted the Postal Service would probably have to go up to 13c for mailing a first class letter in the near future. And here you were worried that the bottom would fall out of everything during the coming year. THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla.

Three million, seven hundred thousand dollars. Not a bad contract for a working ballplayer. That's the report-- ed amount "Catfish" Hunter got from the Yankees for signing; after being granted' "free agent" status from 1the Oakland A's. Not all in cash of course and not for just one year. The contract is.supposed to be for five years at $200,000 per year, with the rest in bonus and benefits. Even in these days, it's hard to.believe any one man can be worth that much to a ball club. Obvious- ly the Yankees think he is. You can't help but wonder however, what the effects will be on the players around the league. For one thing; the owners have certainly lost any sympathic ear they may have had concerning player demands. If a 20 game winner is worth that much- how much is a 10 game'winner worth? Half as much? And what about the reliever who bailed him and others out of half their starts; or the .300 hitter or the 100 RBI man. To say that the other players on the team or around the league, won't resent it if their paychecks and .benefits aren't increased a like amount, is wistful thinking. They're pros, but they're also human. The Yankees didn't just make that as an opening offer-they were bid up that high, so the other owners were equally a part of it. On the other hand, it does prove one thing. If the preserve clause is deleted from baseball, without a doubt, the wealthier franchises will dominate and any pretense of a balanced league will go down the drain. You can't blame the players. The owners left the door open. My guess is there will be some very inter- esting contract talks this spring.

Telephone Complex Installed for State A huge telephone system connecting more than 500 State government offices in 88 Florida cities is scheduled to go into service March 1, to provide efficient, economi- cal instrastate long distance service. , The 42,000-telephone system_ has" been named SUNCOM, an abbreviation of Sunshine Communications, by the State's Department of Gene- ral Services. The unique system is ex- pected to reduce the State government intrastate tele- phone toll costs by 30 per cent. Florida telephone compan- ies have cooperated to design and build the system which reaches into practically every state government of- fice in Florida. Completion of the "com- mon control switching ar- rangement", known in the telephone industry as CCSA will be in, time for the cut- over March 1. It will be one of the 10 largest telephone systems of the kind in the country. Most of the others are owned by huge industrial corporations. Switching centers are being located in Tallahassee, Orlan- do and Miami. They will allow a state employee in any agency ird dial directl ton an:, other agency, eliminating intrastate long distance charges, over a network of telephone lines dedicated ex- clusively to State use. The network compares in number of telephones served with the total of seven ex- changes serving the entire, city of Fort Myers. It will be operated by State employees who are now undergoing training. Maintenance will be provided by the telephone company in whose area the, equipment is located.

Edenfield, County Forester Wood is one of the most environmentally provident of all man's building materials. There is a substantial dif- ference in the energy re- quired to produce a ton of lumber, a ton of steel and a ton of aluminum. H. R. Glas- cock, Jr., writing in the November issue of the Amer- ican Journal of Forestry, has found that it takes 453 kilo- watt hours of electricity to produce the ton of lumber, 2,700 hours to produce that much steel and 17,000 kilo- watt hours to produce a like amount of aluminum. Even aside from this fact, many people profess a liking for wood for it seems to come with a wide variety of capa- bilities and appreciable quali- ties. For instance, America's giant sporting goods industry looks to certain kinds of woods to create products of rugged strength and pleasing design. Superior golf clubs demand a head of wood-usually do- wood or persimmon-to wield the force for long drives from the tee (also usually of wood). The price of a set of golf clubs is determined, in part, by whether real wood is used or whether the head is simulated of plastic. Bowling alleys wouldn't do much business without the maple forest. For lustrous bowling lane floors, northern hard maple is regulation equipage. It dresses to a non- porous, smooth finish. Since the bowling craze struck Japan, that country has been a major importer of American maple. Now, Tokyo's favorite night spots are ten lane, multi-storied bowling alleys. Wood is also elastic. The lignin that binds cellulose fibers together provides wood with resiliency. This is why wood floors are less tiring to stand on than concrete. With all its other attributes, wood is a replenishable source. The sporting goods industry has made good use of the sage advice of today's forest- er..Use more wood and save energy!

It's Easy to Signal, Just Move the Lever Auto manufacturers make it easy for drivers to signaJ when turning but many people fail to use this simple safety device said the Florida Highway Patrol this week., Colonel Eldrige Beach, Pat- rol Director said, "Many motor vehicle crashes are caused by drivers not using their turn indicators. When not too many years ago, dri- vers had to make turn sighalas by hand, they sometimes tried to justify not doing it because it was cold or rain- ing and the side window was rolled up. While this was no excuse, today's drivers can- not try to use the same ex- cuse because all they have to do is move a small, lever.": He continued, "Think of I e times that other drivers have made sudden turns in front of you without signalling or you were sitting at a side street trying to get into the flow of traffic when an oncoming car slowed and suddenly turned into your street without sig- nalling. Then it was too late for you to pull out because of more oncoming traffic." The director concluded by saying, "The law requires drivers to signal their inten- tion to change direction of travel and drivers should get in the habit of using turn signals, not only for safety's sake but as a courtesy to other drivers.
