Industry Deep Water Port Fine People Safest Beaches in Florida PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA THURSDAY, APRIL 24, 1975 * 15 Cents Per Copy Low Bid of $288,821 Made for Sewer Work This car demolished in accident Five Hospitalized Following Auto Accident Early Saturday Morning Five people were injured in an early morning accident here in Port St. Joe Saturday, when an the automobile in which they were riding plowed into the rear of a parked semi-trailer truck. According to Port St. Joe police records, the driver of S, the -car was Helen Knox .. Sinclair of Apalachicola-Pas- sengers were Ella Richard- son, Sarah Sinclair and Henry Rochelle, all of Apalachicola .. and Bobby Clay Martin of Port St. Joe. David Ambus Smith of Apalachicola was the driver of the parked truck. Investigating officer, Bobby Lightfoot, said the truck, .used to haul wood chips to the St. Joe Paper Company mill was parked on the side of the road , in front of Troy Gay's Stan- dard Station on Monument Avenue when the Sinclair car approached from the north, striking the truck in,the rear. All five of the occupants were. Taken to Municipal Hospital by Gulf County Emergency Am- bulance Service, where all but the Sinclairs were found to need more-specialized treat- ment and were transferred to Schools Announce Registration The Port St. Joe Elemen- tary School announces regis- tration for boys and girls who plan to enter kindergarten or first grade in the fall of 1975. It Swill be held in the kindergar- ten center from 9:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. on May 2. To be eli- gible for enrollment, kinder- garten children must be five years old and first grade chil- dren must:be six years old on' or before January 1, 1976. Those children presently at- tending kindergarten at Port St. Joe Elementary School will not come to school on May 2 as they will be tested and regis- tered during regular school (Continued on Page 2) Panama City. The Sinclair automobile was totally demolished. Lightfoot said no charges have been made at this time, but that charges probably will be made later on in the week. Assisting in the investiga- tion were officers M. A. Kel- ley, Oscar Jones and Gulf County Deputy Jim Bucha- nan. Mechanical and Chemical Equipment Company of Bran- don was the apparent low bidder for the City's planned rehabilitation of sewer lift stations and force mains. Bids were received Tuesday night at the regular meeting of the Commission and then turned over to the engineers for, inspection and recommenda- tions. The engineers will have their recommendations for the Commission at their next reg- ular meeting on Tuesday, May 6. The project, which encom- ,passes considerable work on the City's sewage collection system, attracted a field of eight bidders. The bids ranged I from a low of $288,821 to $451,675, before considering any alternates or reductions to the size oi the project planned. START SECOND PHASE The Board immediately in- structed their engineer, Smith and Gillespie of Jacksonville, to begin working on the second phase of the proposed $2.8 mil- lion program of completely re- habilitating and extending the City's water and sewer ser- vices. The project may even expand to the point where it will furnish water and sewer services to Oak Grove. Projects involved in the second phase of the program will be doubling the capacity of the water treatment plant to a two million gallon a day plant, construction of a new 500,000. gallon storage at the tank site on Long Avenue and removing the oldest of the two tanks now there and construc- tion of a new 10 inch water, main from the treatment plant to the storage facilities. Commissioner Tom S. Cold- wey was charged with the responsibility of making ap- plication to the Farmer's Home Administration to bor- row the money needed to finance the entire project. POLICE RETIREMENT' After several weeks of study in the matter, the. City Com- mission agreed Tuesday night to transfer the police. depart- ment retirement system over to the state.operated system. The retirement system for police had been financed and administered by the Commis- sion and the police and had been in effect for several years. On shifting the accumulated funds to the state program, a surplus .of $14,530.48 was left, which the Commission decid- ed to put in escrow-to make up any differences which might arise in the future in what retirees would have received under the old plan and what they will receive under the new program. Several of the officers have in more years of service than is being allowed to their credit under the new program. OTHER BUSINESS In other items of business, the Commission: -Agreed to install summer water rates for the months of May through August. -Were'notified that police patrolman Jack Davilla had resigned and gone with the Gulf County Sheriff's De- partment.

Wewa Man Jailed On Murder Count Sheriff Raymond Lawrence noted that his department was kept busy this past weekend with a number of cases, all of -which were solved or cleared by Sunday night. In addition to several cases of driving while intoxicated, possession of nar- cotics, and lesser infractions, one homicide was investi- gated. John Henry Jackson, 49, of Methodist Hill in Wewahitch- ka is being held in the Gulf Two More Seeking City Commission Posts May 13 Two more have thrown their hats in the race for the three City Commission seats to be decided upon May 13, since last week. Two candidates have quali- fied to seek election in Group SII for the City Commission; the seat being vacated by Commissioner Bob Holland. James Hanlon paid his quali- fying fee Tuesday of this week and-Wesley R. Ramsey quali- Sfied last Thursday to seek election to the post. In the other positions, in- cumbents Mayor-Commis- sioner Frank Pate and Com- missioner Tom S. Coldewey have decided to seek re-elec- tion. Pate is opposed by Anais Lilius and Robert Montgom- ery. Coldewey has no opposi- tion. The qualification period ended yesterday afternoon at 5:00 p.m., but the Star had gone to press before the deadline and it was not know if there were any last minute candidates to offer themselves for election to the posts. County Jail in lieu of $20,000.00 bond, and is charged with the murder of'his wifeMeomia, 48. The incident apparently took place sometime in the early morning hours Sunday, and at this time evidence indi- cates that thevictim died as a result of injuries caused from being severely beaten with a board. SheriffLawrence, Chief De- puty White, Sgt. Williams and Investigator, Buchanan con- ducted the investigation. In the midst of the homicide investigation a call was re- ceived that the kindergarten in Wewahitchka had been broken into. Deputies immedi- ately went to the scene and apprehended two male juven- iles. The two had used a poc- ket knife to force the lock on the back door. Their "loot" consisted of two bags of candy and a bag of cookies. The Sheriff's Department and Civil Defense personnel have also been busy the past week assisting people who were having difficulties due to the high water in the Wewa area. They have also been patrolling the camps in the area. It took the Gulf County Commission two hours Tues- day night to convince a dele- gation from Highland View that the county could not legally take over the operation of the Highland View water department. Also during the two hour session, which dom- inated the Board's meeting, the Commission said they were not interested in taking over the system, which seems to be plagued with dissention among the citizens of High- land View. As a matter of fact, the relationship between the water department directors, appointed by the Governor, and some of the citizens seem to be cloudier than the water of which they are complain- ing. In two meetings in the past, the group of citizens,. seem- ingly headed up by Albert Whitfield, 'Jackie Reagan and Mr. and Mrs. Billy Branch, has been that the water has been cloudy and a little hard. They wanted something done and felt the board of directors were not doing enough to correct the situation. Now the theme seems to be that the same group wants the county to take. over the operation or aid them in replacing the board of directors. Their first choice Tuesday night seemed Last Iites for Vera Kimmell Funeral services for Mrs. Vera Olive Kimmell, 74, of Mexico Beach, who died Tues- day, April 15, were held at 11:00 a.m. Thursday in the St. Clair Funeral Home Chapel, with Rev. James Gosnell, of the Pentecostal Holiness Church, officiating/ Interment was in the Na- tional Cemetery at Wilming- ton, North Carolina. Mrs. Kimmell was a native of Washington state, and had been a resident of this area for the past four years, moving here from Wilmington, North Carolina. She is survived by two sons, Ralph Kimmell of Mexico Beach and Karl Kimmell of Jacksonville; five grandchil- dren and two great grandchil- dren. St. Clair Funeral Home of Pot St. Joe was in charge of all arrangements. to be for the county to take over the operation. Attorney Fred Witten ad- vised everyone present that the Highland View Water Dis- trict is' a constitutional body created by the Legislature and can be abolished, paving the way for county take-over, by the Legislature. He pointed out that the directors were appointed by the Governor and could be removed and replaced by the governor. Emory Bailey, chairman of the water district's board of directors, asked the County Commission to take over the operation or leave the board alone td'correct the problems at the water system as they can. "We have problems", said Bailey, "but we're not going to rush into fixing them without getting expert advice from the State Board of Health as to just what we need. We have been promised that a man will be here in the next few days to completely exam- ine the system and make recommendations for its re- pair." Bailey went on to'say they had been advised by the Board of Health of certain repairs which would probably be needed and the directors have made arrangements to secure the money for the work and made plans to repay the borrowed money. Still some of the citizens 'at the meeting called for a new board while others asked them to be patient and let the directors do what they had to do in order to make repairs before calling for their re- placement. The Board finally ended the discussion on the note that they would not take over the operation, but would assist the board of directors if they asked for help in securing financing or contacting the proper -people to do the work at the system which was needed. NEW SUBDIVISION The County Commission ac- cepted a plat for a new subdivision in the County Tuesday night. The subdivi- sion, Christie's Beach, is lo- cated near Indian Pass and consists of nearly 4,000 acres. Steve Nations of Florida Engineers Associates pre- sented the first phase of the subdivision which consists of a plot of 325 acres, divided up into 196 lots. He said the development would comply with all Gulf County subdivi- sion regulations and even surpass them in some in- stances. Nations said the de- velopers were ready to let contracts on clearing roads, digging drain ditches 'and canals and laying out the subdivision. The subdivision is being developed by Shellbilt Con- struction ,and Development Company of Fishskill, New York. In presenting the first phase of the development, Nations pointed out that the develop- ers had provided two five acre plots for parks in the first phase of development and had plans for light industry and business areas in the over-all plan, which would, in effect, create another city in Gulf County. The first phase of develop- ment has pretty stiff restric- tions, calling:for homes of at least 1,000 square feet, with only one single family dwel- ling or one duplex dwelling allowed to the lot.

Mexico Beach's new system of jetting sand by the mouth of their canal where it empties into the Gulf of Mexico is a completely new concept for this type project, Charles Guilford told the Rotary Club .last Thursday. The system, developed by the U. S. Corps of Engineers was designed for a completely different opera- tion, but a test by the Engin- eers has proven that it can do the job Mexico Beach wants done and cause no damage to the ecology. "As a matter of fact, the system helps nature along by nourishing the bea- ches below the canal", Guil- ford said. The system is placed in the water at the level at which the people at Mexico Beach want the canal entrance to remain. Two pumps jet water at the sand which is drifting into the mouth of the canal and create. a vacuum around a second hose which vacuums (thW'U-:' wanted said out, suspeified in water, and deposits it at the water line below the canal mouth. "This pump system will maintain a certain depth and cut itself off when the sand has been removed.i It takes the place of a dragline operating full time", Guilford said. Cost of the installation is expected to be in the neigh- borhood of $70,000, "But that will be cheap compared to what we'have been spending", Guilford said. The problem at the canal has been caused by the tides moving the sand from east to west and depositing it in the mouth of the canal as it washed by to the tune of several hundred yards per day. "This new pump system will merely help the sand by the canal mouth and deposit it on the other side where it will continue merrily on its way", Guilford said. Bids 'were ti be'recetved-Jast week on the project which has received a pledge of $25,000 from the State-of Florida and $12,500 from the Bay County Commission. The City of Mex- ico Beach must come up with the remainder of the money. "We're going to do it some- how", Guilford said.

Supreme Court says they won't make the death penalty constitutional because there is the chance the penalty will be abused by applying it to some and withholding it from others, able and powerful enough to conduct extensive hearings on their behalf. In the meantime, the lack of the death penalty continues to cause senseless murders and killings such as the murder of the two women in Panama City over the week end. The murderer didn't even remember to take the money he had stolen with him after committing his second killing of the Lord's day. We beg to differ with the attorney who argued that there would be favoritism shown in application of the death penalty that those who could afford it would merely delay the penalty year after year while making appeals in the courts. There's no more familiar case to those of us here in Gulf County than the tactics which have kept Wilbert Lee and Freddie Pitts out of that hot seat. They were not privileged citizens just ordinary men who got caught for committing a crime and yet untold'thousands have been spent in keeping them from the execution chamber. Looking back on the application of the death penalty we would have to come to the conclusion that if there has been any wrong use of the penalty, it would have to be that it wasn't used as often as needed rather than with favoritism. While we are on the subject of crime, I see where Senator Pat Thomas has co-introduced a bill in the current session of the Florida Senate which would mandate at least a three year sentence in jail for committing crimes with the use of a gun. Thomas would skirt the present practice of using the probation option extensive- ly and decree a mandatory jail sentence when a criminal uses a gun in committing his dirty deed. It seems the sensible thing to do for law makers to draft laws which would punish the person who misuses the firearms rather than dreaming up laws to take the firearms away from those who own them for protection. Of course the second law would be the easiest to pass since that law-abiding person who bought his gun for protection against kooks who are allowedto,roam;arpund will surrender his gun i,,,readilyisinaee;the law says to do so. The person who has a gun to rip off some innocent citizen will probably be prone to hide his gun and not turn it in like the law says to do. I can't see how I could have overlooked the anniversary of Paul Revere's ride which warned the Colonists that the British were coming. Paul's parade through the New England countryside was the introduction to the shot which was heard around the world, sounding the beginning of people wanting to govern them- selves rather than being subject to the whims of a king. Paul's ride and the decision by the Colonists caught on and has been repeated time after-time since that day, 200 years ago. I read one paper the Washington County News, which gave the "true" story of Paul's ride. The editor, Maurice Pujol, said he had letters handed down from an ancestor which "proved" old Paul was a drunk and a moonshiner. Pujol went on to say, his letters said, Paul was at his still on the night in question, sampling his wares along with some of the British army, who were customers of his distillery. The news version went on to say that Paul looked up and saw two lights in the church steeple when there was only one. Of course, the signal was to warn the people if the British were coming by land or sea. Paul started out telling some of his friends the British were coming by land when they were, in reality, coming by sea. On the way, he met a friend and they started drinking and spent the night in the woods passed out. Being a naive patriot, I'll go on believing the version in the history books since there is more evidence that Paul was an upstanding citizen and a silversmith of quite some accomplishment and' only the so-called authentic letters to a relative to say he was a drunkard and no-good.

The film dealt' with the problem of juvenile delinquency, what causes it and how it is treated. The film was made at the Fairfield School for Boys in Fairfield, Ohio where juve- niles are rehabilitated. Narrator, Joe Garagiola said that when a child is having trouble with his par- ents through rejection or mis- treatment, "He has two ways to go-run away or fight back". Juveniles account for 750,- 000 cases in the courts each year. Over two percent of youths between the ages of 10-17 appeared in court last year on one charge or another. "Juveniles can be rehabili- tated", Garagiola said, "But he must want to be rehabili- tated." The film pointed out that it costs tax payers an average of $2,500 a year to furnish detention facilities for. the juveniles. Garagiola summed it all up by saying "Prison systems aren't particularly effective .. . they never have been. It takes the love of a parent and the desire of a juvenile to have him effectively rehabilitated to society." Guests of the Club were Key Clubbers Becky Gable, Janet Murphy, Eddie Creamer and Steve Cloud. Pvt. Bolden -In Hawaii Army Private William A. Bolden, son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward L.

At that time they will board a commercial airliner to Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio where they will undergo six weeks of basic training. The Port St. Joe natives have successfully completed a series of tests which qualified them to enter the administrative and elec- tronic career areas respec- tively. Both Airmen are 1975 grad- uates of Port St. Joe High School and were enlisted into the Air Force by Sergeant Jim Musgrove of the Panama City Recruiting Office. summer vacation." Burch stressed. Already 334 Panama City high school students have par- ticipated in the testing and application program conduct- ed at their schools; and sev- eral Gulf County students have visited the -Gulf Coast campus. College counselors and faculty will return to local schools this month to advise those students who have al- ready been tested regarding major study areas and career goals. Students still needing test- ing may report to the Student Services Building on any school day at either 8:00 a.m. or 1:00 p.m., CDT. Students will receive tests according to their needs, high school grades and Florida twelfth grade test score. Up until May 1, students completing these steps may make appointments -to see their faculty advisor regard- ing the scheduling of fall classes. Advisors will be un- available from May 2 through August 12, just prior to fall registration. "Students must complete all admissions procedures before receiving a registration ap- pointment," Burch empha- sized. FRESHMEN BRIEFING-Prospective Gulf Earl Cochran, vice-president of instructional Coast Community College freshmen from Port affairs. St. Joe High School are welcomed to campus by Mexico Beach Kicks off Festival "Ling Ding" sounds like, something a poet might say while trying to establish a rhyming scheme. "Spring Ling-Ding" would almost guarantee it. That's not what it refers to, though. Actually, it describes the annaul Mexico Beach fishing tournament that is presently underway, and which will end the day before the Ling-Ding -Fiesta winds the whole affair up on June 14 with a fish fry, sailboat races-and an awards presentation. Previous to that, there's a motorboat race on June 11, and a water skiing contest on June 13. The Ling-Ding has gained national attention in recent years, and top tournament anglers are participating in the competition. The ling-a common name for cobia- is a strong fighter that ranges in the 30-50 pound class, al- though the world record stands at 102 pounds, and it is considered by many fisher- men to be one of the best sport fish found in Gulf of Mexico waters. This year's Ling-Ding festi- val will coincide with Gulf County Golden Anniversary nine day celebration, June 6 to June 14. PAGE EIGHT v AN 1 I Local students planning to. attend Gulf Coast Community College this fall are urged to complete the admissions pro- cess by June 1. According to Director of Admissions, Ivie Burch, stu- dents who meet this deadline will be assured of a place in the 1975-76 freshman class. "Our first priority is to meet the needs of the students in the local area," Burch said, "and so we are asking for their -cooperation in filing applica- tion forms and completing the necessary placement tests early." Burch added that, although the college was not anticipat- ing serious enrollment pro- blems for the coming year, admission after the June 1 date would be on a first come- first serve basis. "Naturally, we cannot pre- dict how the legislature will respond to the needs of educa- tion state-wide for the coming academic year, but we can guarantee places to those Bay and Gulf County students who apply for admission before the Two Youths Enter Air Force eARCEL POST A. 0:%( .Ism THE STAR, Port Joe, Fla. THURSDAY, APRIL 24, 1975 PAGE NINE Dr. Hendrix Witnesses the Signing of Medical Bill Governor Askew is shown signing House Bill 3363 author- izing $1.5 million for the residency programs in family practice through the state. This also established an on- going training program for family physicians and pro- vided full funding for the first three years of all new pro- grams in family practice. Because of the financial sup- port the state has given to the program, between 12,and 15 programs in community hos- pitals will be in operation by mid-1975. These programs will provide family physicians for those 'areas, particularly in rural Florida, in need of pri- mary care physicians. Shown in the photo are left to right: Dr. E. G.

Hen- drix of Port St. Joe, President Sheriff Lawrence Says "Irish Travelers" Bilking Area Residents A group of "gypsy-type" people are travelling through Florida, most of them hailing from South Carolina. They have posed as painters, exter- minators, social security workers and as representa- tives from large carpet and Involuntary treatment is available for someone close to yo'Wi itfh' 'aV'i6ui drihiRitig problem. At last 300,000 people in Florida are alcoholics. They are not to be blamed for their -P illness any more than the fat person 'who suffers a heart attack or the smoker who gets cancer. Because alcoholism is now officially recognized as an illness, it, is easier for a person to admit that he has a serious drinking problem. But :at the same time, it has also .become easier for him to rationalize doing nothing about it. Some alcoholcis are able to recognize their problem early and form a firm resolve to get help frotn competent com- _munity resources. This is the ideal solution, of course. The earlier a drinking problem is detected and treated, the bet- ter the chances of arresting the condition before it takes a heavy toll on a person's life. In fact, two out of three alco- holics who receive competent help return to a life of mean- ing without the regular use of alcohol as a crutch. Often, however, it is char- acteristic for an alcoholic to continue to deny his problem long after it is obvious to everyone around him. In fact, it is this unwillingness to face reality that may well have Started him on the road to drinking in the first place. In this common situation, it is imperative that family and friends have access to a method of introducing the Reluctant alcoholic to treat- mernt and rehabilitation before he destroys himself and-or his loved ones. This is now possi- ble in Florida through court- ordered Involuntary Treat- ment. A physician concludes that the person you wish to receive help is an alcoholic who has lost the power of self-control with respect to alcohol and, (i) is likely to harm himself or others unless he is treated, or (2) the examining physician determines that the person needs treatment and care and that by reason of chronic alco- holism his judgment has been impaired to the point that he is not capable of making a rational decision "Persons who can begin the process are a patient's spouse, legal guardian, any next of kin, a physician, the head of any state treatment and re- search center, the sheriff of the county in which the patient resdies or is found, or any three Florida citizens may file a Petition (DMH-MA-4) which can be obtained, from the Clerk of the Circuit Court. The Petition must be duly tile companies, in order to gain entry into rural area homes to commit thefts. The whole group is working under an occupational license ob- tained in Port St. Joe under the following name and ad- dress: authorized or sworn to before the Dcpurf Clerk"of'the Co'ftt .and dp,6ie 'dis rbui.ed ttP the patient, his guardian (if any) and, if the patient is already confined to an emergency treatment resource, to the ad- ministrator of that resource. The petition must be accom- panied by a Certificate (DMH- MA-5) also available from the Clerk of the Circuit Court, signed by a licensed medical or osteopathic physician who has examined the person with- in the previous 48 hours. No Certificate is required if it is noted in the Petition that the patient has refused to submit. to a medical examination. The Court fixes a date for a hearing no later than 10 days after receiving the Petition. Notice of the hearing is given to the person who initiated the Petition, the prospective pat- ient, his next of kin other than the petitioner, the patient's parents or legal guardian (if he is a minor), the head of the facility if the patient is al- ready confined, and any other person the Court deems ap- propriate; If the patient has refused to be examined by a licensed physician, he. is offered that opportunity by a court-ap- pointed physician. If the patient again refuses an examination and there is suffi- cient evidence that the allega- tions in the Petition are true, the Court may issue a Pre- liminary Order committing the patient to an appropriate treatment resource for not more than five days for a diag- nostic examination. If the Court then-determines that the proof- is clear and convincing, it will order the patient to a treatment program at or through an appropriate re- source. The Involuntary Treatment Order entails an initial order for 30 days, unless patient is discharged earlier. After that the patient is automatically discharged unless the treat- ment resource has filed a new Petition and received a fur- ther court order for an extra period up to 90 days. Further orders, each for six months, may be obtained if the pat- ient's condition warrants it. By law alcohol abusers and alcoholics may not be discri- minated against by any pri- vate or public hospital which receives support in any form' from any program supported in whole or in part by funds appropriated to any Federal department or agency. Information concerning in- voluntary commitment can be obtained from the Alcoholism Information Center at 321 Reid Avenue, Port St. Joe. GORMAN BROTHERS, 420 Luverne Avenue, Panama City and McNALLY & SHER- LOCK, 1221 Land Street Road, Apt. 2252-54, Orlando.' These travelling criminals are known to law enforcement agencies as "Irish Travelers" because of their use of six basic family names: Gorman, Carrol, Sherlock, Riley, Mack and O'Hara. They are white, but will hire blacks to assist them. They usually travel in groups of three or four truck- loads throughout the southern states in late model pick-up trucks (usually Ford or Chev- rolet) mainly in rural areas. The Irish Travelers usually select elderly people as their victims. They ask to be paid for their.services in small bills and I ifi take"the victim to the bank if necessary. Various schemes used are: -The Irish Travelers pose as electrical inspectors. After an "inspection", the victim is advised that .his wiring is faulty. "Electricians", who are also Irish Travelers, are called in to correct the electri- cal circuits. The same method of operations is used by the group posing as extermina- tors. *The Irish Travelers will go into a victim's home, pos- ing as social security workers. When in the home, they sug- gest that the victim be exa- mined by the social security doctor, whom they'have with them (another Irish Travel- er). The victim is led to believe that the Irish Travel- ers might be able to get the victim more benefits on his social security. The victim is told to go into another room and undress. While the "doc- tor" examines the victim, the rest of the Irish Travelers take valuables from the victim's house. -The Irish Travelers pose as representatives from a large company selling high quality carpets and tiles. The materials are usually good enough to last about a month, by which time the IrishTrav- elers are no longer in the area. -The Irish Travelers do paving work for victims, using a cheap paring compound which will not hold up under an automobile's weight.
