Offer Help:to Secure Federal Funds



State DOT Says Dozen Streets will be Paved.



In Port St. Joe Area by the End of Summer


.Road paving, offers of help
in establishing.a list of subdi-
visidn regulations and who:is
.eligible for government fund-
ed labor took up most of the
four and a half hour session
at the County Commission
meeting Tuesday night.
Charles Dunn, district rep-
resentative of the Depart-'
ment of Transportation, told
the Board of several paving
projects which will be bid for,
Gulf County in March under
the secondary' paving pro-
gram. ,'
Of the paving projects to be
bid off in March, 12 of them
are in the Port St. Joe and St.
Joe Beach area.
SAccording to Dunn's report,
streets in Port St. Joe to be
paved this year include:
Westcott Circle, 13th Street
from Garrison to Marvin,
Peters Street from Ave. C to
Ave. F, Battle Street from A,
to F, Avenue D from; High-
way 98 to Peters St., Hodrlck
Street from D to G and
Avenue G from Hodrick to
Main.
In St. Joe Beach, streets to
be paved include DeSoto St:,
from Americus to Georgia,"
Columbus Street from Amer-
icus to Georgia, Coronado:
and Balboa. Streets from
Americus to Alabama and,
Magellan Street from Ameri-.
cus to Kenny Lake.
Dun. said the ..ounty i
about $250,000 to its credit'af\
the present time for paving'
and the DOT expected; this
amount to increase by about
$15,000 a year for the next
five years.
The DOT representative
also told the Board they
would be expected to update
their five year paving plain on
Wednesday,. March 19 at a
meeting in Blountstown.
The Board was notified that
the DOT was trying to get the
State Park system to assume
ownership of the road leading
to the state park. The DOT is
presently working on a plan,
to return ownership of all
roads in the county back to
the county with the exception
of Highways 71 and 98. Park
ownership' of this road would
relieve the county of main-
tenance responsibilities.

Mrs. Gussie Young


Management District here'
Tuesday.
Dams on the river system
have come in for their licks
during the past year or two
as being damaging to. the
river system. Currently a
study is being planned for the
Apalachicola River basin and
the Management District is
exploring a means of financ-
ing a complete study of the
river basin.
Jack Rosenau of the U.S.
Geodetic Survey pointed out
that the entire Northwest
Florida region is short of
data needed for making
sound decisions about water
availability. He said that
practically no data exists for
Gulf, Franklin and Wakulla
counties.
Quackenbush presented a
paper before the meeting giv-
ing information as to the
needs and the source of fresh
water for St. Joe Paper and
the City of Port.St. Joe.
The mill chemist pointed
out how the firm started
operations with 16 wells sup-
plying fresh water needs.
However, lowering water ta-
bles, a need for' more water
and pump maintenance caus-
ed the firm to seek a larger


source, which led to, the con-.
struction of the 18-mile-long
fresh water canal to the
Chipola River.
Robert Freeman said his
firm, Basic Magnesia uses
about two million gallons of
fresh, water per day which
comes through the Paper
Company's canal as well as
20 million gallons of sea
water. Their spent water is
placed back in St. Joseph's
Bay with only some trace
chemicals removed.
Other area paper manufac-
turers were to present infor-
mation at the hearing, but
failed to appear.
Panama City Port Author-
ity outlined plans for propos-
ed harbor work.
It was reported that a
scientific survey of the dis-
trict's water resources would
soon be published. It was
pointed out that water quality
in the area along the Gulf
Coast was not too good, and
the reason for this condition
was unknown at this time.
Tom S...Coldewey, Vice-
President of St. Joe Paper
Company was chairman for
the meeting. Coldewey is a
member of the Governor's
Water Management Commit-
tee.


Northwest Florida Develop-
ment Commission, told the
Board Tuesday they were
ready to offer'their services
to Gulf County in two areas.
The NWDFC offered to help
establish subdivision regula-
tions and to offer their aid in
securing some of the new
government funding for var-
ious projects which will be
available in the new fiscal
year. Bates said something
like $10 million would be
available for Northwest Flor-
ida for various projects. He
suggested Gulf county join in
with 12 other area counties in
making a block application
for some of the money, with
the NWFDC acting as the
county's agent.
Bates said filing procedure
and planning for use of the
money would require either a
professional consultant or
their office to follow through
with securing any funding.
The Board agreed to join in
the block application plan
and ask for funding to deal
with solid waste disposal
problems and purchase
hardware for this purpose..
Chairman Otis Davis, Jr.,
also asked the Gulf County
.Planning Committee to be-
come active again,,replacing
inactive members, and aid'
the Commission in providing
with the subdivision and


waste disposal needs of the
county.
Committee chairman, Hugh
White, was present at the
meeting and said his commit-
tee would accept the respon-
sibility.
SQUABBLE
Mrs. Laura Geddie, one of
three members of a Commis-
sion-appointed committee
which is charged with the
responsibility of administer-
ing federal money coming to
the county for unemployed to
have temporary jobs, pre-
sented the Board with a
problem met by the commit-
tee.
She said applications for
jobs through the program
have been received from sev-
eral state agencies operating
in the county and other com-
mittee members, Emmett
Daniell and Jerry Gates have
argued that these requests
should be denied. -
Mrs. Geddie said the appli-
cations were made on direc-
tion of state administrators of
the fund, so they must be
eligible.
Daniell and Gates argued
that the committee is charg-
ed with drawing, up priorities
for placing the' federally-
funded jobs and the. feel the
priority_ should: be given to
county municipalities, -the
County, itself, and the Gulf


County School Board. "We
feel the state can care for
their own needs," Gates said.
Mrs. Geddie said the big
problem was that guidelines
of the state say these agen-
cies are eligible for money
coming to the county, and the


committee needs clarificai{i
from the Board as to whether"
they wish these state agenT
cies to be included in- the'
priority list. .
The Board instructed :their;
representatives to consider

had been reported stolen in
Texas. He was found-to have

year for buildings.
"I don't know if .3e're
going to have enough'fioney
to build a gym at Wewa-
hitchka", Bidwell said, "But)
we're going to take a look at
it.
The Board borrowed $54,000

ding fluoride to tooth paste seems
to have met with success and no

If fluoride toothpaste can survive in

ing practically the same thing, on a

that the economists 'are looking at

while the politicians are looking at

cent cut in salary. For every
$2. billion surplus, congress-
men would receive a one per
cent salary increase," Collins
urged.
"Hopefully," he argues,
"this would provide the lib-
eral spenders in Congress
w:th enough incentive to keep
the budget in the black."
As an idea, it's wonderful
in theory. In practice, it
could indeed do more than
anything now being done (in-
cluding the new congression-


al budgeting system) to avoid
deficit spending.
On the other side of the
coin, consider the political
aspects. If this concept shad
'been in-practice since, say,
1960, what would have hap-
pened?
Of the 15 fiscal years in-
volved congressmen would
have taken the 10 per cent
pay cut 13 times, broken even
once ('60) and gained a 1.5
per cent pay hike once ('69).
Anybody want to bet on the
idea's chance of enactment?

No Local Support Given



Purchase of Peninsula


By JACK HARPER
S Tallahassee Democrat
The Florida Department of Natural
Resources is now eyeing the southern part
of St. Joseph Peninsula in Gulf County as
another purchase in the state's Endangered
Land Program.
Jim Pierce, chief of the Bureau of
Plans, Programs and Services for the
Division of Parks, said hearings would begin
in February on whether the state will begin
negotiations to buy that section of the
peninsula as a landbreak for the mainland.
'"The shoreline is' constantly changing,"
Pierce said, "and we feel if anything is done
to seriously disturb it, environmental disas-
ter will result."
He said the state must'maintain a
balance of nature both in St. Joseph's Bay
and the Peninsula itself.
The purchase has been initiated by the
state and several landowners have already
approached the department to negotiate,
according to Pierce.
"But there has been no support from the
general public in the Port St. Joe "area," he
said.,.
A hearing has been scheduled in the


Gulf County Courthouse at Port St. Joe
February 17 to assess the local feeling on
the purchase.,
Pierce said Florida has issued $200
million in bonds to purchase what are
considered endangered lands for environ-
mental protection. Already more than $90
million has been authorized for purchases,
including some 16,000 acres of the lower
Apalachicola flood plain.
"We don't know yet how much of the
Apalachicola River basin will be needed to
protect the seafood industry of Apalachicola
Bay," he said. "Studies on the first pur-
chase, a 15-mile stretch up the river, will
help determine the total needed."
Pierce said the department was against
a proposed dam on the river just north of
Blountstown.
"The river is responsible for the delicate
nutrient balance in the bay necessary to
preserve the seafood cycle which abounds
there. The bay is unique as the source of
food for sea animals."
He said the Apalachicola purchase
would be consumated as soon as a survey on
the river is complete to see if the state
already owns part of the river land.

Kiwanians Given
Glance Back into '74
A look at the year that was,
was taken by the Kiwanis
Club last Tuesday, as Wesley
R. Ramsey gave a synopsis
of what happened in the past
year in Gulf County.
The program consisted of
headline and unusual news
items which made up the
*happeningsof '1974.
Guests of the club were
Key Chibbers, Jim McNeill,
Mike Todd, Susan Dupree
and Cathy Gray.


I see where the FBI chief acknowledges the
fact that his agency has built files on Congress-
.men. Some think that is alterrible invasion of
privacy. I think that is a small guarantee that
we are getting what we voted for.
There should be no argument to the fact
that every Congressman should be investigated
by the FBI; at least as far as his loyalty to the
' nation is concerned. A Congressman or Senator
is in a position to be privy to all sorts of
privileged and secret information. If a Con-
gressman isn't investigated before he takes
office he should be shortly thereafter. They
should be given a security check just as surely
as any person who occupies a sensitive
position.
I hope the FBI keeps on checking on our
Congressmen. After the revelations this past
year as to their Arinking and partying habits,
we need assurance they are reliable in at least
one avenue.

I read the other day about this "cat" up in
Georgia who is suing the Gilman Paper
Company for violating his right of' free 'speech
and his 14th Amendment right not to be
deprived of life, liberty or property without due
process of law.
The suit resulted when Gilman Paper fired
the sue-er.
The sue-er claimed the sack was given him
because he advocated the company be investi-
gated for possible violation of federal pollution
laws and argues that the mill's taxes were too
low
The sue-ee said the sue-er was sacked
because he poured acid on a black man who
was using a formerly all-white rest room at the
mill.
If the mill's version is correct, and there is
no reason to believe that it is anything but the
truth, we have a classic case of what's wrong
-with the world today.
Everyone knows that it is now legal for
that black man to use the formerly. all-white
rest room. The courts have ruled that he shall
not be discriminated against. We go along with
that as the way it should be.
The sue-er, and others like him, seem to
-think .the.civild.ig htSgga.arntees should apply,
"only when he. ineeds- them ifor himself and"
should be ignored when they do not suit his
present state of mind. People like the sue-er


react when they see something they don't
particularly like and raise sand when such
"injustices" as being fired for throwing acid on
a person as being an invasion of his civil rights
and 14th Amendment guarantees of the right to
make a living.

I saw Jim Greer the other day, out bustling
around getting ready to get his Irish potatoes in
the ground. Jimmy is just as regular as the
Groundhog at Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania,
when it comes to getting going with his spring
garden.
The Irish potatoes come first and Jimmy
said he was on his way to haul some pine straw
to cover his potatoes with after he got them in
the ground.
Free-hearted as I am, I offered him all I
had at the house. All he had to do was to get it
up off the yard. There would be no charge.
Jimmy is an unusual man. He must be well
into his seventies, but he doesn't look nor act a
day older than he did 20 years ago.
Jimmy still never, seems to worry about
anything except maybe the bugs getting into
his garden. This attitude may be what's
keeping him so young and active.
In all the 35 years I've known him, I don't
think I have ever seen him sad or tired at
least he didn't look like he was sad or tired in
all that time.


I would make no fitting ad figure for
Nyquil. Last Sunday I came down with "it".
Monday, "it" had a firm hold on me. My throat
was scratchy and raw as a fresh wrung chicken
neck; I had a fever and a chill; I ached all over
-the ideal time to try Nyquil. It didn't work.
All week long I had that classic "you need
Nyquil feeling" and it just didn't do a thing
for me.
I sort of hate to get over the flu, though, as
I enjoyed that going to bed at 9:30 and sleeping
until nearly 8:00 in the morning, trying to
shake off the aches and pains, the cough and
general dragged-out feeling which comes along
with the flu.

Now that the'flu is flying'away:I must get
'back into iy old habits aiid stay on the go until
10 or 11 each night and get out of the sack at
7:30 in the morning.

Entertaining Sports Feature

The most entertaining sports feature to come
along recently, in my opinion, is the ABC presenta-
dion of "Superstars". It brings together top, profes-
sional athletes from all of the various sports fields.
They compete for points and prize money, but must
compete in events unrelated to their profession. The
atmosphere is generally one of just having a good
time, and undoubtedly that is true for most of them,
Needless to say however ABC has put up enough
prize money to make it worthwhile for the winners.
It also gives some of us a chance to compare the
various all around ability of one sport versus
another. Kyle Rote, Jr. won the contest last year and
the year before Bob Seagran. A soccer player and a
pole vaulter. Rote was best known, if at all, as the
son of the ex-Giant football great..And Seagran had
gotten some publicity as a world record vaulter, but
hardly could be compared to Rose, Simpson, Jackson
or Harris. For anyone who has watched Johnny
Bench work behind the plate or hit one out of the
park, it's a little disconcerting to see him nearly
drown in a swimming pool. I guess off the baseball
diamond, he's pretty much like the rest of us. Maybe
that's what is so entertaining; seeing the great ones
out of their element, and catching their reaction In
most cases they display the class that got them there
in the first place.
Oh yes, they've added the female Superstars to
the program this year. And if you saw that lady
nearly throw a softball out of the Astrodome the
other day, you'll find it hard to put them down.

THE
AWARE SHOPPER
By Barbara Sullivan
A&P Director of Consumer Affairs
Cutting the fat from
your food bill with milk
Milk is a big part )o alsmot eeryhbody's
food budget. Not only do children need
a lot ofit fir growth, grown-ups need it
too lor body maintenance. It's our main
source ot calcium and rich in protein
and ribfllavin.
But the more yo(u know about butterfat.
the more "lat"' you might be able to trim
from your lood hill each week. Because
we oiler you a wide selection ol
butterlat contents in the milk we sell
all at dillerent prices.
'Ihe average niilk-drinking family can
actually save up to a dollar or two a
week hby determining which butterfat
content is right for their needs.
Here are some guidelines tor milk that
may help )ou weigh (oi value against
the other.
I. Whole milk. It has approximately
3.25% butterfat present, evenly
- di~spe-red--4--ug4.t;.AS m, lik,.b, Ah--_ ......,
process ol homogenization. And all the
whole milk we sell is firtitied with
Vitamin I). You get about 160 calories
per 8-ounce glass.
2. Skim milk. It has all the nutrients of
whole milk except for fat, which is cut
to a maximum ol 0.5',.
An 8-ounce glass contains 90 calories.

;1. I milk. Our own Look-Fit brand
fortified with vitamin n A & D.
11 calories per 8-ounce glass.
4. 2% milk. When Iresh whole milk and
skimmed milk are mixed together you
get 2'. butterfat content. Like whole
milk. it is also lortilied with Vitamin LD.
5. Instant Nonfat Dry Milk. Using
n(nlat dry milk otters the greatest
possibility tor sa\ ing money. All the
protein, minerals, and most (o the
vitamins ol the fluid milk are retained.
and it is fortified with vitamins A & D.
It has the advantages o needing no
refrigerate in in dry lorm. ot easy storage
and ot mixing and measuring easily.
When reconstituted, it has 0.1'.
butterfat and contains 90 calories per
S-ounce glass.

Port St. Joe's Sharks turn-
ed things around this past
week and took two victories
in three outings. The Sharks
tapped Marianna and Apala-
chicola for wins and lost to a
strong Mosley quintet.
Last Friday evening, the
Sharks handed the Marianna
Bulldogs a .68-63 defeat here
in the home gym. Although
the Sharks jumped off to a
six point lead in the first
period, the Bulldogs had pul-
led ahead by one point at half
time. The Sharks bounded
back in the third period with
22 big points while the Dogs
were able to get only 12. The
Sharks were not behind
again.
Ernest Pittman paced the
Shark attack with 16 points.
Carey Daniels added 14 and
Robert Lewis, 12. Page led
the Bulldogs with his 20
points.
'The score by quarters:


Port St. Joe 14 24 22 8-68 the Dolphins with 20 points. chicola team easily, but had
Marianna 20 17 12 14-63 to scramble for a 77-76 win.

Sharks, 68-53 Saturday night,
for the Sharks' worst defeat
of the season.

ing Sharks were in the double

For nearly 20 years people
have been asking again and
again, "Where can I get a
copy of "The Great Tide"?
Today all of these people and
many others will be happy to
know that through the efforts
of the St. Joseph Historical
Society of Port St. Joe, with
Eunice H. Brinson spear-
heading the project, the pop-
ular historical novel is now in
its sixth printing and will be
released to the public in the
near future-hopefully by
March or April.
"The Great Tide", written
by Rubylea Hall, a former
resident of Port St. Joe, is
based on the history of the
area with much of its' setting
in the old city of St. Jospeh.
It depicts vividly life in Flor-
ida at .that time and espec-
ially in.this area. The book is
most interesting and beauti-
fully written. It was first
published in 1947 and copies
were sold so rapidly that


within 10 years there .were
five printings. Mrs. Brinson
was responsible for the 1957
printing and to her we owe
most of the credit for its
appearance for the sixth
time.
The new edition of "The
Great Tide" will be un-
changed except for the addi-
tion of 16 pages of pictures
which should add to its value


and also make the book more
attractive. Only 3000 copies
will be available and quite a
few of these have already
been reserved. Others desir-
ing to reserve one or more
copies may do so by contact-
ing Jesse Stone, Mrs. R. H.
Brinson, Mrs. Ralph Swatts,
Sr., or any other member of
the St. Joseph Historical Soc-
iety.

*TALLAHASSEE An es -

in Florida last year by new

Spert emergency medical ser-
vices, according to State
.:Health officials.
Dr. E. Charlton Prather,
:'who heads the. State health
program under the Depart-
ment of Health and Rehabili-
.tative Services (HRS), said
recently that Florida is the
first state in the U.S. to have
trained ambulance attend-
ants. available to answer
'emergency calls in every
part of the state. "Besides
this, 95 percent of Florida's
residents have access to ba-
sic emergency medical ser-
vices," Prather stated.
Almost every county in the
state now has the modernly
equipped, life saving ambu-
lances manned by emergen-
cy medical technicians who
have had college-level train-
ing, according to Prather.
Since September 1, last
year, a model ambulance
and crew has been touring
the state giving demonstra-
tions to county officials, fire
department and police per-
sonnel. The program is a
joint effort of the Florida
Regional Medical Program
and the Division of Health.

Approval

to Apply

for Funds
Approval to apply for
$214,455 in federal assistance
for a three-and-a-half-year
study of Florida's king
mackerel was approved two
weeks ago by the Governor
and Cabinet, Harmon Shields,
executive director of the
Department of Natural Re-
sources reported.
Shields said' the project
will be funded on a matching
basis, with the state provid-
ing 25 percent and the
government 75 percent. A
grant for $26,740 to cover the
first six months of the study,
from January 1 to June 30,
1975, will be requested initi-
ally, he explained.
Tagging king mackerel in
order to gain information on
the movement, migration and
an estimate of total popula-
tion of'the fish will be the
main subject of the study,
Shields said.
"This present study follows
several years of research by
the St. Petersburg Marine
Research Laboratory on both
King and Spanish mackerel,"
Shields: observed. "The fish
will be tagged and recovered
later, providing data to im-
prove fishery management
regulations. The program
will assure Florida of a con-
tinuing resource."
He pointed out that Flori-
da's king mackerel is an
important commercial fish,
yielding more than six mil-
lion pounds during an aver-
age year of fishing. The
director said mackerel also is
one of the most popular sport
fish, sought by anglers
throughout the nation, as well
as Florida.
