County Told It Must Provide




911 Emergency Nuber


Gulf County was notified
Tuesday that it will be re-
quired by the State of Florida
to get into the "911 program'"
of providing an emergency
communications within the
next four years.
.Bill Vanlandifigham, with
the state Division of Com-
muntications said a state law
would require the county to
come up with a plan by the
middle of June, 1976; order
the necessary equipment by
the first of 1977 and have the
program into operation by
1979 ..
The 911 communication
system would provide one
number for calling-any emer-
gency service. Vanlanding-
ham said the number would
'not replace present commu-
nications systems of present
emergency facilities but
would provide a number, eas-
ily remembered by persons
in a situation where they
were excited and couldn't
remember which number to
call. The 911 system would
allow persons to call for law
enforcement, fire depart-
ments, ambulance or any
other emergency service by
the one number, 911.
-Vanlandinghari said. he,
would be glad to work with a
local committee for setting
up a system. He suggested
-the natural- place -to- put the -
911 headquarters would be in
the Sheriff's office since this
office provides. 24-hour dis-
patchers. The expense in-
yolved would be in maintain-
ing open lines from the cen-
tral headquarters to each of
the emergency stations in-
volved. He said some coun-
ties were providing the ser-
vice for around $150.00 per
month and one county was
doing the job for about $30.00
a month.

HEALTH DEPARTMENT
For some time, the County
Commission has been want-
ing to question Dr. W. H.
Weathington of the County
Health Department as to
what the duties of the De-
partment consist of. The
.county operates the Health
Department' jointly with the
State of Florida.
The Board had that oppor-

Weathington appeared at a
meeting.
Of prime concern to the
Board was the fact that sen-

Port St. Joe area could not
get free blood pressure
checks while they could do so
in Wewahitchka. Dr. Wea-
thington said, "The answer to
that one is simple. There are
2,500 people in the Wewa-
hitchka area, no doctors and
no hospitals. There are 7,500
people in the Port St. Joe
area, four doctors and a
hospital. It's as simple as
tliat." The doctor went on to
say that the Department is
operating with the same staff
as it did 20 years ago and did
not have the personnel to
Scarry on more activities than
They did at present.
The Board requested the
blood pressure checks to be
made .in the Port St. Joe
clinic and Weathingtori said
that if a doctor requests
checks of retired persons on
a weekly or monthly basis
they would offer the service.

CD Will Simulate

Emergency Frida

Gulf County Civil Defense will conduct
a simulated emergency here in Port St.
Joe Friday, according to CD director,
Richard Lancaster. The exercise will
begin at 9:00 a.m., at the Port St. Joe Fire
Station and continue to 11:00 a.m.
Lancaster said state Civil Defense
officials will be in Gulf County for the
exercise which will include all personnel
on the disaster team as well as govern-
ment officials.
The exercise will include an examina-
tion of all disaster tools and equipment as
well as a test of the preparedness of the
personnel. Lancaster said the test is a
periodic examination of the county pro-
gram by state and federal officials to see
if the county is properly utilizing furnished
materials as well as maintaining an.-
operative force.


Two Arrested As


Theft Suspects


Two men--one from Port
St. Joe and another from
Apalachicola- have been
charged as suspects in break-
ing into the office of Dr.'Joe
Hendrix here in Port St. Joe
and Buzzett's Pharmacy in
Apalachicola for the purpose
of stealing drugs.
Shortly before one a.m.,
Monday morning, Port St.
Joe City Police discovered
that the office of Dr. Joseph

The car was parked at the
St. Joe Bowling Lanes Mon-
day night while Gant and
some friends were bowling.
At about 9:00 p.m., the sedan
was seen burning furiously.

nue had been broken into.
Meanwhile deputies were
dispatched to search for a
suspicious vehicle that had
been observed in the vicinity
earlier that evening. At three
a.m., Deputy Jimmy Wil-
liams discovered'the vehicle
and two white males in a
wooded area between Niles
Road and Highway 98.
Thomas Allen Humphrey of
Port St. Joe and Richard
Darrell Johnson of Apalachi-
cola were arrested and
charged with the burglary of
Dr. Joe's office. A search of
the area where the subjects
were apprehended produced
a large quantity of narcotics
and drug paraphernalia
which were traced to an ear-
lier break-in of Buzzett's
Drug Store in Apalachicola.
The two subjects were sub-
sequently charged with pos-
session of Schedule II, III and
IV narcotics and face addi-
tional charges in Franklin
County.
Sheriff Raymond Lawrence
noted-that a cooperative ef-
fort between Port St. Joe
police officers, Gulf County
deputies, and Franklin Coun-
ty deputies helped to wrap up
this case in such a short
period of time.

SHowAbout Tomorrow


Proof that government doesn't
know what to do about inflation or
recession is being shown to us
every day during these financially
troubled times.
While states, counties and ci-
ties are paring their spending to
come within the money available
the U.S. government is merrily
wheeling along trying to spend as
much as they can whether they
have it or not. A case in point is our
local governments here in Gulf
County, all of which have taken
steps to cut spending and the State
of Florida cutting back on its
spending while the United States
has set a goal of going into debt by
$t2 billion and feverishly making
plans to go even further into debt.
Then we could ask the question,
"What Lre you doing about reces-
sion? Are you making plans to go


A downstate legislator has

ing-and bullet biting for the

Rep. John Clark, a Lake-
laifdl Democrat, suggests

priitions and finance and

'then, the Legislature

The idea itself is not new.

agencies.


deeper into debt or are you trying
your best to live within your
means? What would you have your
government do--go further into
debt or do as you must do?"
Either the local of national gov-
ernments are goirg about this thing
wrong. If deficit"`4pending is the
answer, the state, the counties and
cities must change their ways and
get into the swing of things and
help right our finihcial boat faster
without depending on the federal
government to t~ke care of the
whole smelly canof worms. If the
local governments are correct in
their approach, the federal gov-
ernment should qdit borrowing and
spending as if there is no tomor-
row.
There is a tomorrow, you know,
and tomorrow those borrowed bil-
lions must be paid back.


The Legislature, with 600
full-time employees and per-
haps a hundred or so extra
for the annual sessions, has
been the fastest growing part
of Florida's government. Its
expenses for the current year
will run near $30 million.
State tax revenue, for the
first time in more than a
generation, is showing a de-
cline from the previous
year-a decline, not just the
familiar lessening of rate of
increase that came with prior
recessions. The Askew ad-
minsitration is preparing a
budget recommendation for
the 1975 session that-is. ex-
pected to reflect this lack of
increase in anticipated state
revenue. That recommenda-
tion will be made public before
fore long.
Rep. Clark points to num-


erous savings in government
work-some of which maybe
can also be translated into
actual savings of dollars--
if his plan for legislative ses-
sions is adopted: Some of
them have real merit.
First, Florida would go
back to a two-year budget
which gave way in 1969 to
annual budgets written by the
annual regular sessions of the
Legislature. In every big
state agency there are staffs
of workers who spend most
or all their time preparing
budget matters for legislative
committees or members, or,
particularly, for those large
staffs of permanent employ-
ees hired by most standing
legislative committees. Even
before one annual budget
goes into effect each July 1,
the agency workers are

b Curb Se vice
by CIIARLIE WEBB,


Our -first curb service busi-
ness in town had its begin-
ning at a drug store when a
man curbed up.in front of the
store in a new Model-T car
and sounded his magneto
horn for the store owner to
com eout and see the beauty
of the car. Later, most all car
owners with their families
would lark at the store.
The Model-T ignition,sys-
tem had a series, of little
wood boxes, called units,
which required frequent ad-
justments of the working
parts. Among the curbed cars
at the drug store there was
always an expert unit adjust-
er and his only charge for,.
such services was a free
set-up from the drug stor e,
consisting of a vanilla iilk


gathering information fcjr the
next.
Clark commented, "This

vantage of annual sessions

state agencies) in o their areas

correct in this.

these 600 permanent jobs and
their related expenses could
be phased out. After all,
"bureaucratic fat" creeps in-
to legislative budgets just as
it does all other public
agency operations.
House Speaker Don Tucker
and Senate President Demp-
sey Barron have already cut
out a lot of this overstaffing.
But they didn't eliminate all
of it, and the eyes of other
budget cutters could quickly
discover non-essential costs
still there.
Clark's bill ought to get a
fair and thorough examina-
tion, for it has a lot to recom-
mend it in this time of belt
tightening.


The ending of the curb
parking each day was a walk
around among the curbed
cars. The men would ex-
change bits of spark plug
news, the ladies would enjoy
looking at each others beau-
tifiul, home-millered hats,
while the young men would
admire the young ladies in
the popular V-cut white mid-
die blouses, worn at that time
period.
The foung ladies would en-
joy seeing the young men
walking by in bell-bottom
blue, sailor pants. There was
much beauty seen during the
curb parking at the drug
store in the long ago.
May we each observe the
beauty in everyone that we
meet today. The beauty that
we see could be a glimpse of
the warmth and reality of our
own wonderful inward
beauty, while the confusion
that'we see in others could be
the coldness of our own con-
fusion.

Many Hospitals Affected


Florida Recipient


Of Released


Federal Funds


TALLAHASSEE More
than forty hospitals, clinics,
and other medical facilities
throughout the state will
soon receive a share .of the
$12.5 million in federal funds
for modernization, altera-
tions and expansion that
have been held up for about
two years after impound-
ment by former President
Richard M. Nixon.
Officials of Florida's De-
partment of Health.and Re-
habilifative Services (HRS)
said the funds were already
committed and would be
made available to previously
approved projects that range
from $600,000 grants to the
County Health Center in
Rockledge, Jackson Memor-
ial Hospital in Miami, and
Florida Manor in Orlando to
modest $12,420 grants to
Soutel, Oceanway and Bald-
win Clinics in Jacksonville.
The list includes six grants
for a half-million dollars
each in areas throughout the
state.
Secretary O. J. Keller of
HRS said the release of
funds, formerly known as
Hill-Burton grants, would
spur building activity
throughout the state and
provide employment in
related trades.
"Many of these facilities'
expansion and moderniza-
tion plans have been una-
voidably delayed awaiting
release of these funds,"
Keller stated, "and in many


areas the medical services to
Floridians have suffered as a
result"

Bureau Chief Art
Forehand of HRS' Commun-
ity Medical Facilities said
the grants were mostly for
hospital modernization and
for expansion of out-patient
treatment capability since
Florida already has enough
in-patient hospital beds in
most areas.
Forehand's Bureau is
responsible under federal
and state laws for determin-
ing needs and setting priori-
ties for medical facilities in
Florida. The Bureau also
acts as a conduit in channel-
ing funds to these projects
under the Federal Health
Planning Act.
"Another aid to medical
facilities that is channeled
through the Bureau",
Forehand stated, "is the
guaranty loan and interest
subsidy program. Our 1975
allocation has not been
finalized but we will be
announcing it when Congress
acts on appropriations."

Weeds


With


Animals

Hydrilla, a plant introduced
to Florida waters from Indo-
nesia offers the worst threat
to the state's waters and
lakes, Dr. Alvah B'urkhalter
told the Port St. Joe Rotary
Club last Thursday. "The
menace faced from the water
hyacinth is minor compared
to the hydrilla and the Eura-
sian water milfoil", Burkhal-
ter said.
"The state of Florida has
spent millions trying to com-
bat these three weeds and to
date only the water hyacinth
has succumbed to manipula-
tion", Burkhalter said. The
other weeds are poisoned and
mowed but they come right
back. Water hyacinths are
controllable by manipulation
of water depths such as has
recently begun at the Dead

The speaker said the De-
partment of Natural Resour-
ces has recently focused its
attention toward biological
control of the milfoil and
hydrilla. It has been found
that no natural diseases or
pests exists in the United
States which attack these
water weeds, since the weeds
came from another continent.
Recently a beetle has been
found which attacks the hya-
cinth. It attacks the root of
the plant and destroys it.
The much-publicized white
amur seems to be the answer
to controlling the hydrilla.
The fish eats only the foliage
of the plant and has been
known to spawn in only two
places in the world outside its
native China. The fish grows
to a weight of about 60
pounds over a period of nine
to ten years and is used in
some countries to control wa-
ter weeds and for food after
it matures.
Burkhalter said the fish
eats only the top of the plant
which will grow again. But a
continued population of the
amur in the body of water'
witl'ikeep the-weed'cicntrolled.,.g
The'"tate executive sfid it
is now costing the state
around $200 to $300 per acre
to mow the weeds and costs
only $15 to $20 per acre to use
the amur as a controlling
measure.
The club inducted Harold
Quackenbush as a new mem-
ber.
Guests included Robert
Montgomery, Tom Coldewey
and Jerry Sullivan.


Other Editors Say:



Calls for Bullet Biting


Port St. Joe received some publicity in the
Panama City News-Herald Sunday morning.
,Both the history and the present state of things
were explored by the article.
By and large, the item was complimentary,
but there were a few things we disagreed with.
For instance, I must disagree with my friend,
the Mayor; Frank Pate. -The article reported
him as saying (and he could have been
mis-quoted) that the town hadn't grown in 20
years that there was less business houses
here now than 20 years ago.
Twenty years ago, there -was only a scant
half dozen houses south of 16th Street. Now half
the population of the city lives south of Itth
Street and there are no vacant houses for rent.
This means substantial growth.
As for the business population, Ican count
at least 13 new business houses which have
been built within the past 20 years, in addition
to the expansions and improvements which
have been made. Consider your plight, today, if
you planned to go into business. Where would
you put it in the business area of Port St. Joe?
If it wouldn't be compatible with the old
Wimberly Pontiac or Creech Laundry building,
you would have to pitch a tent, since these are
the only buildings vacant in the business
district. There are two which are rented as
storage which may be vacated, but they are not
vacant.
As usual, some of those interviewed took
their slam at the town and asked that their
names not be mentioned. One who had moved
from here said her young sons would "go up
the wall" for nothing to do here in Port St. Joe.
She has been gone a long time. A kid who is
hunting something constructive to do hardly
has time to stay home if he participates in all
which is available to him, We don't have a,
movie theatre, which we desperately need, btrt
we have playgrounds galore along with or-
ganized and spontaneous activities which ',will
keep anybody busy who wants to be.
I go along with Chief "Buck" Griffin. It's a
good place to live. We may not have the hustle
and bustle of city life, but we can still '.valk on
the sidewalks after dark. Padlocks aren't the
hottest selling item in town nor are thc. jails full
of murderers, rapists, perverts, etc.
Port St:. TJ6he :is a clean town_, with well
landscaped homes, beautiful ch'jrches, fine
buildings, public buildings which would be the
envy of larger places and the friendliest people
on earth. And, too, the people of Port St. Joe
get together and get things 'done when they
want to see something acconr polished.
Our. forrier Mayor, ..:J3e Sharit,. had a
saying which I have adopted d. "There are three
highways leading into Potf, St. Joe. If there are
those who canit: stand it I lere, those roads also

will accept travellers going in the opposite
direction."

Last Thursday, Mrs. Bob Ellzey came in
the office and said, "Le'e (their son) picked up
the paper today and said, 'What's happened to
The Star?' ". No dou bt you asked the same
question and if you didn't you're not very
cognizant of changes being made around you.
What happened was that we received
delivery of a second computer photographic
typesetter last week which had some new type
faces on it. Our new machine sets larger type
for the paper such as goes into the headlines
and ad "guts". Since we changed to offset in
our printing method two years ago we have had
one computer typesetter, but its sizes of type
were limited u'p to about three eighths inch in
height. Too, changing type faces and sizes took
a good bit of time and setting the larger type
tied up our machine for setting the smaller
"reading matter" type.
Before/you say we are contradicting our
editorial o' this week with making purchases in
these trifing times, we must tell you the
machine/was ordered seven months ago when
times were good. We just received delivery two
weeks ago today.
Before we received the machine you
wouldn't believe the way we were setting up
the 'larger type which goes into the paper each
we('k. In this offset business, you must have a
proof of the type to be used. In the old hot
rr etal system, we used the type slug itself to
r~rint from. We have no slugs now. If we use
slugs, we must put them on a letter press and
pull a proof before it can be used. This is what
we were doing before the new machine arrived.
Our new machine sets type from a quarter
inch to an inch in height. It saves us a good
deal of time and gives us a better looking
product.

Newspapers printed from hot metal aren't
the only thing which is bowing out to change.
Recently I learned that there was no more
linoleum being made. Most anyone 30 years of
age, and many of a more tender age, can
remember the linoleum rug which graced
e ;every'-kitchen.floor, A few. years-baeky it was
an unusual kitehe6Aivhi&h .didn^ liave, linolium
on the floor. The vinyl floor material and tile
have spelled the doom of the linoleum rug.
Just last week I read that the last
manufacturer of top hats has quit. No more top
hats. What will politicians and entertainers do
for a high silk hat now?
I suppose, the demise of the linoleum rug
and the top hat will make collectors' items of
these two familiar parts of the past.

Will Trees Power Your Auto?


By Ralph J. Edenfleld
County Forester
Don't laugh. The idea of
using wood alcohol to power
autos and supply home heat-


Snooker Play

Winners Named
The Second Annual Snooker
Pool Tournament was spon-
sored by St. Joe Bar recently.
.First place honors )which in-
cluded a trophy and record
player) went to Punk Ste-
vens. Joe Britt won second
place trophy. He also scored
the highest, 76, and won a
shirt for his efforts. Third
place trophy went to Ed
Wynn.
The record player and shirt
were donated by Sears Cata-
log Store.
The management of St. Joe
Bar extends itst thanks for
everyone's participation.


ing fuel isn't exactly new-or
unheard of. .
Because wood alcohol (or
methanol) is made from re-
sin which comes from ordi-
nary trees, it is encouraging
to see that scientists are ex-
ploring its worth as a serious
energy source, at last.
National television pro-
grams and a host of news
stories have recently touted
resin fuel as a good energy
solution.
Iri Maine, the energy offi-
cials are installing a pilot
plant which would supply
wood alcohol to be used in
state-owned vehicles and for
heating state buildings. Their
idea, isn't original. Both the
Japanese and Germans turn-
ed to .methanol during World
Waf II to divert pertroleum
for use as aviation fuel.
The source of Maine's wood
alcohol would come from mil-
lions of acres of diseased
timberland.


Florida is the home of the
slash pine tree and the high-
gum yield slash pine, as is
Georgia. Discovery of a tech-
nique to increase the produc-
tionof resin in pines by 20 per
cent was recently noted by
scientists at the U. S. Forest
Service's Southeast Forest
Experiment Station at Olus-
tee, Florida.
The two findings, concur-
rent with each other, could
insure the American public of
a "renewable source" of fuel
that is both cheap and plenti-,
ful. -
How clean-burning is
methyl alcohol?


This question must have
occurred to many readers
and viewers, who feel they
are being "hoaxed" by pub-
licity on manure and sea-
weed-powered contrivances.
And now tar pine!
The Division of Forestry,
Florida Department of Agri-
culture and Consumer Ser-
vices, has been encouraged
by reports they have received
and intend to pursue the
*:matter.
Six automobiles owned by
California's University of
Santa Clara have been run-
ning on methanol and gaso--
line for several months. In


spite of claims by oil industry
officials that methanol is in-
efficient and corrosive to-
auto engines, the six test cars
are reported operating with
improved efficiency.
According to one news arti-
cle,-Thomas B. Reed of MIT's
energy laboratory, said he
has driven 22,000 miles in his
1969 Toyota and 13,000 miles
in a Ford subcompact using a
10 per cent methanol blend-
gas.
A 15 per cent blend of
methanol with gasoline can
be used in regular automo-
biles. However, when more
than 30 per cent methanol is


used, the two fuels tend to
separate. Fuel system modi-
fications must be made to
tolerate the added methanol.
Several studiess have point-
ed up one surprising fact-
that normal engines can use


a methanol-supplemented gas
fuel. They get increased oc-
tane, longer mileage ands
lower smog emissions!
Could you call that another
tribute to man's arch-friend
and provider, the tree!

Outdoor Writers



SMeeting In Gulf


SA committee has outlined 21 activities for
the enjoyment of the Southeastern Outdoor
Press Association, who will hold their
annual meeting here in GulfCounty in April.
The outdoor writers' group has chosen
Gulf County over a: number of southeastern
locations which extended an invitation to the
Writers whose works are published in the
major daily newspapers and in numerous
periodicals covering the region.
Jesse Stone, chairman of the Gulf County
Golden Anniversary Commission, the spon-
soring organization, recently compiled a list
of activities in. which the writers may
participate.
Activities include every activity which
could appeal to outdoorsmen in this area,
including even a deer hunt on the Box R
SRanch, where deer are kept in a protected
-.-environment. The outdoorsmen must use
only cameras in their hunt, however.
Other activities planned include deep sea
fishing, a tour of the Peninsula, and a fish


fry as well as many other activities.
The writers will gather in Port St. Joe on
April 24 and stay through April 27. They will
not be bored as a tight schedule of activities
has been arranged for every minute they
are here. Even the nights are active, since a
night-time trip aboard a working shrimp
boat has been arranged.
The Chamber of Commerce will host the
writers Saturday night at a dinner.
Activities arranged for the writers include
fresh water fishing, deep sea fishing, a tour
of the Peninsula, fish fries, shrimping, etc.
In addition, arrangements have been
made to make facilities available for the
visitors to enjoy golf, tennis, bowling,
swimming, scalloping, trap shooting and a
dance while they are the guests of Gulf
County. .
The writers have been offered .the use of
the boys camp on Black's Island as a place
to hold their week end convention.

he was in Port St. Joe only a

enough time to conduct a
clinic at the jail. He'went on
to point out that the primary
purpose of the Health De-
portment was the control of
pestilence, not medical prac-
tice.
"A few years back we had
problems from diphtheria,
smallpox, polio, scarlet fever,
etc. The Health Department
is concerned with keeping
these diseases a thing of the
past and is our prime reason
for existence", Dr. Weathing-
ton said. More recently their
duties have expanded into the
fields of health education
mostly involved with family
planning and venereal di-
seases.
OTHER BUSINESS
In other business the Com-
mission:
-Accepted a bid of $7,905
to furnish the Road Depart-
ment with a sloping attach-
ment for one of the county
graders. Commissioner Silas


Player opposed the purchase
saying he thought this was a
time to economize, not spend
more money.
-Told building inspector
E. F. Gunn, the program of
building inspection would be-
gin just as soon as forms
could be prepared to admin-
ister the process of applica-
tions and inspection.
-Took under advisement a
request by Roy Rowan to
abandon two undeveloped
roads in the Chipola Cut-Off
Subdivision.
-Heard words .of compli-
ments from B. M. Janowski
for their stand on opposing
the purchase of St. Joseph's
Peninsula by the State of
Florida. Janowski also comp-
plimented the Mosquito Con-
trol Department, for their
work in controlling dog flies
on the beaches.
-Agreed to call for bids on
furnishing the county with
liability comprehensive in-
surance.

mous vote, the Board agreed

Jackie Willis in the amount of
$100.00 and Leland Gliem in
'the amount of $30.00. Mr.

several attempts he had been
unable to collect these bills.
Comm. Player said that dur-
ing the time the Board had no

lance service Mr. Comforter

Housewives, students, and
other people who plan to get a

for a social security number if
they don't have one, according
to David P. Robinson, Social
Security Field Representative
for Gulf County.
"You should apply for your
number several weeks before
you need it for a job covered
by social security," Robinson
said. "Applications must be
screened against central files
in Baltimore to make sure that
a second number isn't issued
to the same person. Screening
generally takes several
weeks."
More than nine out of ten
jobs are covered by social
security.
People applying for a social
security number for the first
time may be asked to prove
their age, identity and citizen-

WILDLIFE

\. COMMENTS ON THE OUTDOORS

D Or. O. E. Fry.e Jr.
Director

GAME AND FRESH WATER FISH COMMISSION
Omm*'-


"They shoot anything that
moves."
You've heard that phrase
before. It's a catch-all state-
ment. By prodding.the un-
suspecting non-hunter into
believing a sportsman knows
nothing about wildlife,
another environmentally con-.
scious person is cheated out
of a rewarding outdoor ex-
perience.
Let's take a good look at
the facts.
A true hunter-sportsman,
besides being a woodsman, is
a successful part-time bio-
logist. Take a dedicated duck
hunter.
To most people who dab-
- ble with environmental issues
a duck is, well, just a plain
ole' duck. To duck hunters
ducks come in approximately
17 species, most good hunt-
, ing prospects. Each one has
different characteristics dis-
tinguishing it from another.
Colorful patches or
speculums on the wings,
whether, he quacks or whistles
or how the duck rides in
water are all clues expert
duck hunters must learn to
bring the birds to the table,
but the biology lesson doesn't
stop here.
Setting the blind is an-
other skill practiced by the
expert. You'll find him out
before sunrise or in late after-
noon scouting the area
vegetation looking for the
right foliage to blend with
Natural surroundings. If it's
puddle ducks he's after he'll
build the blind near inland
marshes. For diving ducks he
knows the spot's in deeper
waters, but wherever it is one


cattail out of place or "a
distracting move can send a
flock of ducks whistling out
of range.
"But what about other
sportsmen," you say.
Sure, this goes for the deer
hunter right on down to the
week-end quail shooter. All
sportsmen talk about "sure-
fire" ways of bagging game,
but it took outing after out-
ing and a love for the out-
doors before the sport paid
off.
That big buck hunter who
spots tracks instantly when
others would walk on by, or
the turkey specialist who
chooses td hit the woods on'
Thanksgiving morning to
stalk the big bird rather than
buy one from the store;
they're all biologists of a sort.
' Of course, we're not say-
ing the hunter-sportsman is a
scientist in the purest form,
but what the sportsman does
experience by sitting long
.hours in a duck blind or
stalking through the hard-
woods on a cool fall morning
is an education that can't be
learned from an hour tele-
vision special or an editorial
news column.
With valuable game habitat
falling to development cor-
porations and anti-hunting
sentiment pressuring would-
be sportsmen, maybe it's time
to let the sportsman-hunter
"speak his piece."
He's heard ducks whistling
overhead and seen the white-
tailed deer flagging its way
through slash pines. Let the
sportsmen's experiences tell
the real story.

Vets Corner


ST. PETERSBURG, FL.
The Vietnam Era Veter-
ans Readjustment Assistant
Act of 1974, now extends re-
employment rights to.veter-
ans who held jobs with state
or local governments as well
as others says W. B. Mack-
all, Director of the State of
,Florida's Division of Veter-
ans Affairs under the De-
partment of Community Af-
fairs.
Veterans who held state or
local government jobs before
military service, are now
sure of federal assistance in
obtaining their old jobs back.
This Act gives the Labor De-
partment authority to en-
force those reemployment
rights. In general, the em-
ployer is required to rein-
state veterans in the
positions they would have
occupied if they had stayed
on their jobs rather than go
into service. Reemployment
rights also protect the
veteran against loss of sen-
iority due to military service
and seniority or length of
service often determine job
assigAments, pay status,
vacation or other benefits.
In addition Mackall said,
the law provides job protect-
"ion and anti-discrimination
protection to the employees
who leave their position to
perform training duty.with
the Reserves or National
Guard.
Now, veterans who worked
for state or local govern-
ments and who were
separated from the armed
services on-or after
December 3, 1974, can take
up the reemployment rights
problems with the Office of
Veterans Reemployment
Rights in the Labor Manage-
ment Services Administra-
tion: If necessary, the Office
can at the request of the
veteran, through the Depart-
ment of Justice, seek court
action to enforce reemploy-
ment rights.
If you have any.questions
- regarding the above or any
veteran matter, contact


either your local County Vet-
eran Service Office, any
office of the Veterans Ad-
ministration or write
Mackall at Post Office Box
1437, St. Petersburg 33731
(including your Veterans
Administration Claim
number, Service Serial
number or date of birth).

Girl Scouts everywhere are
celebrating.
Sixty-three years ago, on
March 12, 1912, to be exact-
Girl Scouts of the USA was
founded, on very much the
same ideals that shaped the
birth of our Republic. Just as
our country has grown, so
has Girl Scouting: from 18
girls in Savannah in 1912 to
more than 3.3 million girl and
adult members in 1975.

Girl Scouts in these pictures enjoyed a Girl Scout
camping trip back in 1960. All are young ladies now, but
they remember Scouting.


Many changes have been
made to keep the Girl Scout
program timely and avail-
able to all girls through the
years. But, the principles on
which Girl Scouting is
based-honesty, fairness, and
respect for oneself and others
have remained constant.
From its beginning, Girl
Scouting has helped millions
of girls to grow into resource-
ful women.
To highlight this year's Girl
Scout Week, March ,9-15, Girl
Scouts across the country in-
vited all citizens to "Grow
With Us." They ask you to
work in partnership with
them as they prepare for
leadership roles. They ask
you to join their conservation
efforts, their work with han-
dicapped people, senior citi-
zens, the migrant commun-
ity, and hundreds of other co-
operative community service
projects. Whether six or 60,
say the Girl Scouts, "Grow
With Us" and have fun doing
it.
On this, the 63rd anniver-
sary of their founding, the
Girl Scouts and their leaders
are today reaffirming the
spiritual foundation upon
which Girl Scouting is based.

Vehicles In Shape

for Summer Fim
As signs of spring appear
many fishermen and campers
take to Florida's highways
and the Florida Highway
Patrol reminds drivers to
give boat and camper trailers
a close safety check before
summer use.
Patrol Commander Colonel
Eldrige Beach said, "Boat
and camper trailers that
.have not been used for sev-
eral months should be given
special attention. Safety
check all equipment to insure
safe operation."
The Patrol emphasized that
the law requires trailers to
have the following equipment
in good working order: tail-
lights and stop lights, two red
reflectors, white license tag
light, turn signals and safety
chains connected to the tow-
ing vehicle. While not re-
quired, a spare tire and a
jack can keep you from hav-
ing to leave your boat and
trailer on the side of the road
if you have a flat tire.
"When pulling a trailer,
drivers should allow more
room for turning, changing
lanis. and passing. Following,
distances should also be in-
