THIRTY-EIGHTH YEAR, NUMBER 23 Industry Deep Water Port Fin dPeople Safest Beaches in Florida PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1975 Group of Parents Blast Lack of I Discipline In PSJ High School "E:-": Discipline-principally the lack of it-was the concern of about a dozen parents at the Gulf County School Board, meeting 'Tuesday afternoon. The parents seemed to be more ,concerned about chil- dren not being disciplined sternly and severely, enough rather than complaining of discipline which. was too harsh: The discipline problem seemed to be centered in Port St. Joe High School. where parents ang teachers alike clailhed students were allowed to roam the halls and grounds at all hours of. the day and many seemed never to be in class where they should be. .Board member Kenneth Whitfield stated he knew of the, discipline problem and was concerned. "Some. tea- chers lead a hairy life"', Whitfield said. - Chairman Wallace Guillot stated, "Every Board Mem- The Port St. Joe Baseball team is sponsoring a fish fry February 17. 5 p m. through eight p.m. at the high school The price of a ticket is $1.00 and can be purchased from '''"' mebfiers' 61F '" bi,. baseball team.

One parent, Mrs. John Kra- mer, was up in arms because her child hadn't been disci- plined strongly enough when he found himself in trouble with the school officials re- cently. "He did something which" was bad enough the Principal decided he needed suspending for a few days and another principal came along and lifted the suspen- sidn. That wasn't right; if he deserved suspending, the sus- pension order should have stuck," she said. "Rather than. suspending, he was giv- en an extra hour at school doing something he dearly loves to do. That's, punish- ment and discipline?" she asked. A teacher, Mrs. Jacque Price.told .of discipline prob- l9ms in the school telling of noise in the halls during class periods, disrespect and class.

"Parents will take care of discipline if they are told what their child is doing, but this isn't done in so many instances," she said. After the discussion of nearly ah hour, the School Board felt the parents wanted something done to maintain 'discipline at the school so their children could get an 'education. The Board said they would take the neces- sary steps to see that it was maintained.. SCHOOLS ACCREDITED Superintendent David Bid- well announced to the Board Tuesday that the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools has accredited both Port St. Joe and Wewahitch- ka High Schools for the cur- rent school year. The schools must apply for the accreditation each' year after an inspection to.see that the standards are maintain- ed by the school.

Teacher Bargaining Representative Is Approved by Board Gulf County's classroom teachers are now represented by a bargaining organiza- tion, following action by the Gulf County School Board Tuesday afternoon. .Winston Wells/representing the Gulf County Classroom Teachers Association notified the Board his group had complied with all state regulations to represent the' county teachers in, bargaining situations under the new Publit Employees Relations Commission law. Wells said the group had Been approved under PERC regulations and asked for recognition by the School Board. Wells said CTA had 104 members in Gulf County, but 125 of the 145 teachers in the county had requested the organization to represent them in collective bargaining. PERC rules say a ..organization must hWe _at least '51 percent of the personnel' involved agreeable before any organiza- tion can be recognized as a bargaining agent.' All school instructional personnel will be affected by the collective bargaining right except supervisory personnel who spend all or most of their time in administrative duties. Wells said no other groups have applied for or expressed a desire to be the bargaining agent for the teachers in Gulf County. ' The Board accepted CTA's petition and collective bargaining for public em- ployees has come to Gulf County. Mike White-Made Sergeant Gulf County Sheriff Ray- mond Lawrence announced the promotion of Deputy M. T. White to the rank of Ser- geant. The promotion became effective February 1.

Governor Automatic Pitcher Port St. Joe High School Baseball Team members (left to right) Bruce May, Mark Wimberly, Jay Stevens, John Owens, Keef Pettis, Sandy Sanborn and Steve Cloud are shown with the pitching machine purchased recently by the Quarterback Club. The Sharks are now in Spring practice getting ready for the baseball season which begins in March. Prior to the opening of regular season, the Sharks will journey to Lakeland later this month to play several teams in the Lakeland area. Star Photo The Port St. Joe City Com- mission were told Tuesday night they may expect a further reduction ,in their Revenue Sharing Funds from the State of Florida during the current fiscal year. The City had been notified back in November there would be a reduction of $2,- 200.000.in the state fund used for sharing with municipali- ties due to a decrease in the eight cent motor fuel tax receipts. The latest reduction was for $800.000 to be equally divided among all cities re- ceiving Revenue Sharing Funds in the state. Clerk Charles Brock said the reduced revenue sharing funds have already affected the City's payments by about 10 percent and he looks for even greater cuts in the months to come. At its last meeting, the Board had decided to assess property on a front footage basis for two blocks on Cy- press and Juniper Avenues east of 20th street for instal- lation of water and sewer services. At the meeting Tuesday night, the Board decided to extend the system on Cypress for another block, extending the street behind the Elementary School to within a block of Niles Road. There is no right of way for the street beyond this point. The City Commission was anxious to close out a land swap deal with the Gulf County School Board Tuesday night, and get started with construction of a recreation center on the old Washington High School site. Several members of the School Board said they wanted to look at the map and description the City had given on the base- ball park site being swapped to the School Board to see just what they are getting before signing the deal. The School Board is expected to inspect the papers .and sign the trade agreement next Tuesday. Attorney William J. Rish alerted the Board of pending regulations by 'the Depart- ment of Pollution Control re- garding run-off of storm water and its treatment. Rish remarked, "Now they are going to get into the business of regulating God and how much rain water he can allow to fall at any one given time. Let's see how far they get with that one." The Board received three bids for the purchase of a crawler-loader machine but put off awarding the bids until they could be studied for compliance with specifica- tions and determine which would be the cheapest and best deal for the City. The Board tabled a request of Bob Simon of the Waste Water Treatment Plant to buy an oil purifier for $3,425. Simon said the purifier would pay for itself within three years as well as conserve considerable oil.

No doubt the Soviets and Chinese were unaware of the good their refusal of a wheat purchase will do for our nation or they surely would have taken delivery and demanded more. The President's foreign oil tax went into effect on Sunday morning. This, along with a predicted glut of oil on the market as a result of the crash exploration program should make the price of foreign oil come down since the supply and the price will surely reduce the willingness to purchase at the price the Arabs are asking. The President's program naturally met opposition. It would have met opposition if he had proposed demanding the Arabs send us oil in repayment of their lend-lease debt they owe us.

I remember the gas rationing during World War II and it was anything but pleasant. If it had not been war time, the gasoline rationing program'alone' would have probably sparked intense unrest in our nation. As it is, if a person wants to go somewhere he can, if he wants to spend the money on gasoline. Even those who can afford it will be discouraged from traveling to a certain extent, resulting in savings of fuel. Marlon Brando is taking that old Indian saw literally which says one should walk in the moccasins of a person for a day before criticizing what he does or says. Brando has joined the Menominee Indians up in the cold country to demand whatever they are demand- ing. Governor Reubin Askew told a group of Blacks who went to the Capital on Friday of last week that there was nothing illegal about the shooting of a man in Pensacola recently by an Escambia County Sheriff's Deputy. He pointed to the investigation by the Grand Jury which failed to find any dereliction of duty on the part of the Deputy. This must mean the Grand Jury is satisfied the Deputy shot in the line of duty and for a justifiable reason. The Blacks, however countered with threats of people walking in blood in Pensacola and of more shootings to come if the Deputy is not released. Such a threat in itself seems illegal to us. Certainly no person interested in justice or seeing the law properly applied would threaten such action. But, if one isn't interested in law and order-only in chaos and confusion-he will foment civil disorder and protest the shooting of criminals by law officers when the circum- stances demand it. Law officers carry guns to protect them- selves and the public. When criminals come to realize the public is going to demand this gun be used when necessary, then the streets will once again be safe to walk on after dark.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1975 PAGE THREE Sharks Make Serious Bid for Conference SChampionship but Settle for Runner-Up Port St. Joe's Sharks had to settle for the runner-up slot iu i West Coast Conference last week end, as the Sharks lost in the final game, 55-59 to Crestview. The Sharks won in the opening round here in Port St. Joe last Thursday eve- ning, defeating Marianna, 58- 54. Then in DeFuniak Springs' Friday night, the Sharks ad- vanced to the finals by down- ing a tough Walton' High team, 57-50. Walton had de- feated the Sharks twice dur- ing the regular season. Sat- urday night, Crestview took the championship from the grasp of the Sharks. .'e ' Darrell Ward, with 18 points, led the Shark charge against Marianna, aided by Ernest Pittman's 15 points and Johnny Jenkins' 12 re- bounds, Ronnie Myrick paced the Bulldogs with 29 points. The Sharks jumped off to a substantial 17-8 lead in the first period and then held off a Bulldog charge in the last half to win.

Friday night, the Sharks traveled to DeFuniak Sprii.gs to test themselves against a Walton High team which had already defeated them twice during the regular season. But the past record didn't make any difference to the Sharks as they started off behind, 22-8 after the first period was over. A 22 point spurt in the second period put the Sharks right back into the game and a 17 point fourth period iced the victory for the local five. Ernest Pittman hit for 27 points in the game, with Robert Lewis adding 13 and Darrel Ward, 10. Gibson was the big man for the Braves with 22 points.

Saturday night, the Sharks fell behind six points in the first period and could never make up the difference, as Crestview took the Confer-, ence championship. The Bull- dogs had also defeated the Sharks twice during the regu- lar season.

JoEs, forida 32456 Better Freshmen Until recently college freshmen were allowed to participate in baseball, track andewhat are consider- ed the "minor sports". It was thought that they were not experienced or mature enough to move right into football or basketball at the varsity level. It's been three years and no one questions it now. The idea of an 18 year old, starting for Notre Dame, Ohio State, Alabama or Oklahoma was ridiculous, v until it happened. They not only started, but excelled. Certainly a tribute to their individual talent but also an indication of other factors. Namely, better high school programs which resulted from the increased standard of living for the average family. This year the pros took a page from the college rule book and drafted a high school senior. His name is Moses Malone and he joined Utah of the ABA right out of high school. Plenty of eyebrows were raised and much was made over his by-passing college. But he can still go to college and if a kid gets the chance at that kind of money, all things considered, who can blame him. There won't be many Malone's to come along, but when they do we're for them. At last report he was holding his own in the pro ranks. We wish him nothing but good luck.

Following the announcement of President Ford's proposed income tax rebate plan for individuals, I recommended an alternate plan to both the President and Congressional leaders. I believe my plan is more equitable and would maximize the economic impact. Here's how I compare the two plans: THE FORD PLAN: 1. Would give flat 12 percent rebates totaling $12 billion. 2. Would give a maximum $1,000 rebate to those with an income tax of $8,333. (Most taxpayers with incomes of $40,000 or more would receive a $1,000 rebate.) 3. Would give the largest rebates to those who are least likely to spend the money. 4. Would base the tax rebate on the amount of the 1974 tax paid. THE BLOCK PLAN: 1. Would give graduated declining percent- age rebates totaling an amount to be determined by Congress. 2. Would give a maximum 40% tax rebate at lowest income levels declining to zero for those with an Adjusted Gross In- come in excess of $40,000. 3. Would give the largest rebates to low and middle income persons most in need of tax relief and most likely to spend Sthe money. 4. Would base the tax rebate percentage on Adjusted Gross Income and then apply it to the tax...eliminating addi- tional tax advantage to those already benefiting from tax shelters. WHAT SHOULD YOU DO? WRITE THE PRESIDENT, YOUR REPRESENTATIVES AND SENATORS Make your views known, whichever plan you prefer. They are the ones who will pass and approve such legislation. FILE EARLY The Internal Revenue Service is urging taxpayers to file their returns early. It is likely that the sooner the return is filed the sooner the taxpayer will receive any rebate permitted by new legislation. And, if you are entitled to a regular tax refund the sooner you file, the sooner you will receive it. If you have any questions about your income taxes visit or call any one of our more than 7,000 offices nationwide. There is never a charge for tax information or for answering your questions.

Simpson Completes Studies Shirley Simpson, M.D., of Port St. Joe, has completed continuing education require- Sments to retain active mem- bership in the American Aca- demy of Family Physicians, the national association of family doctors. The Academy formerly was called the American Academy of Gen- eral Practice. The requirements call for members to complete a mini- mum of 150 hours of accred- ited continuing medical study every three years. Members become eligible for re-elec- tion at the. end of the third year following their election to membership. The Academy, the country's second largest national medi- cal association, is the only national medical gruop that requires members to keep up with medical progress through continuing education. The Academy, founded in 1947 and headquartered in Kansas City, Mo., was instru- mental in the establishment of a new primary specialty in family practice in 1969. The new specialty is expected to increase the numbers of fam- ily physicians available to ,. serve the public in the future. The. Academy's continuing education program is the foundation of eligibility for family doctors now in prac- tice who apply for certifica- tion in the new specialty. ,Subscribe to The Star LEGAL ADS REGISTRATION OF FICTITIOUS NAMES We the undersigned, being duly sworn, do hereby declare under oath that the names of all persons interested in the business or profession carried on under the name of FUN IN THE SUN CONSTRUCTION at Port St. Joe, Flor- ida and the extent of the interest of each is as follows: Elmer Chester Plumb, Owner 100 per cent.
