City Lets Bids On Projects


Rish Gets $659,000 St


Funds for Sunland Pa


An Appropriation of $659,000 for construc-
tion at the Sunland Recreation Park for the
handicapped on St. Joseph Peninsula was
approved Tuesday.of last week by the Senate
Committee on Health and Rehabilitative Ser-
Svices.
The $659,000 for the summer beach camp
and park for the handicapped on the Gulf of
Mexico near Port St. Joe represented a slash
from the $2.1 million Rep. William J. Rish,
D-Port St. Joe, had sought in the bill.
It would provide for construction of four
camper cottages, five family residence cot-
tages, a caretaker's residence and office and
contingency costs.
Two 'camper cottages now at the park can
accommodate 32 children.
"They're always full during the camping
season," Rish told the committee. "Doctors

'ed an agreement with the
successful bidder Tuesday
night to negotiate the genera-
tor part of the project. The
City Commission felt it could

tion Company and $36,500.00

This project, also, is expect-
ed to get underway in the next

CLOSE ALLEY
SThe Commission granted a
petition from Dr. Tom Gibson
and Cecil G. Costin, Jr., to
close the alley behind the St.
Joe Natural Gas Company
building after.no objections to
the request were received at
the meeting Tuesday night.
Mayor Frank Pate told the
two that the closing would
have to be with the stipulation
that the City have ingress and
egress to the alley to make
any needed repairs to utility
lines which lie underground in
-this space.
Costin said he would pre-
pare the quit claim deed for
the city and include the stipu-
lation. Costin then asked the
City to put off a final decision
,on the .matter until the next
Smeetingw-hen he could pre-
sent the deed for inspection by
the Commission.
PASS RESOLUTION
Hospital administrator
Richard Zyski asked the
Board to officially oppose
House Bill 1705 and Senate Bill
173, which would bring the
hospital under the regulation'
of a new state agency, setting
charges, wages, services, etc.
Zyski said the new law would.
take control of the hospital
from the hands of the Com-
mission and would dictate
virtually every facet of its
operation.
The Commission agreed to
adopt a resolution opposing
the bills and send a copy to the
Gulf County delegation in both
houses. Mayor Pate also
asked Zyski to appear before
the County Commission next
Tuesday and ask them to
adopt a similar resolution.
.TERMINATE ENGINEER
The Commission terminated
the services of Sverdrup and
Parcel Engineers (formerly
David B. Smith Engineers)
Tuesday night after agreeing
to pay a negotiated bill for the
firm's services.
The head of the firm, David
B. Smith had billed the city
several thousand dollars over
.the contract price for design of
the Wastewater Treatment
plant and the City objected to
the latest extra charges which
amounted to $21,900. Smith
claimed the City owed the
money for extra services and
the Board contended much of
the extra work came from
systems which didn't work in
the original plan.
Mayor Pate, Clerk Brock
and attorney William J. Rish
met with Smith in Tallahassee
last week and negotiated the
engineer's latest bill down to.
$8,000. Mayor Pate recom-
mended the Board pay the
negotiated bill and terminate
Smith's services. The Com-
mission voted unanimously to
follow Pate's suggestion.
OTHER BUSINESS
Other items of business
included:
-Instructing attorney Fred
Witten to send out letters to
Joe Rehberg, Ray Brant and
Charles Johnson ordering
them to clean up nuisances on
their property. The Board
asked Witten to allow the
minimum time in the letter
before the City could legally
take action if the orders were
not followed.
-Agreed to apply for a state
permit to clean the silt and
debris out of the channel at the
boat launching ramp at the
end of Fifth Street.


Thieves


Enter


City


Barn

Thieves broke into the City
warehouse on Highway 71
some time Friday night and
broke into a cold drink ma-
chine, according to Patrolman
Howard Rogers of the Port St.
Joe Police Department.
Rogers said, the thieves
apparently approached the
warehouse property from the
back side through the woods
and climbed over the fence.
Evidence at the scene of the
crime showed the thieves
broke into the drink machine
and tore out the coin changing
mechanism, entered all the
trucks stored at the compound
and possibly entered the ware-
house itself.
Rogers said apparently the
only thing which was taken
was a small amount of money
from the drink machine and
possibly some small, hand
tools which might-have been
left lying in one of the trucks.

Tuesday is election. day in
Port St. Joe and we feel people tend
to be sort of apathetic about it. We
have had good city government for
so long people seem to feel that it

The best way to have our city

to continue to ignore it and not be
'concerned when election day comes

voting day and cast their vote for the
one they think will most nearly
reflect their wishes on how things
should be run. To cast an uninform-
ed vote is worse, by far, in our way
of thinking, than casting no vote at
all.
Our city is :in good shape
financially at tie present, but it
wouldn't take much to reverse this
situation. Every day, the city and
county is required to do certain
things for the, people, even though
they.haven't specifically asked for
them, which costs money.
Too often we tend to forget that
when we ask the government to do
something, we are, in reality, asking
ourselves to do these things, since
we as individuals must pay the bill
for them.
Express yourself Tuesday by
going to the polls.


We witnessed two happenings
last. week as being related to one
'another and served as good exam-
ples as to why we have a rampaging
inflation these days which is causing
prices to rise continuously, even in
this day of a slumping economy.
During the past week, the
.Federal money people announced
they would print an additional
supply of money for the coming
year. This move directly on the heels
of the only thing the nation's
economists agreed upon last year;
: ,that the printing of money in times
Such as these adds to rather than
subtracts from the effects of infla-
tion.
The other significant event was
scanning through a 1902 Sears,
Roebuck catalog at the antique show
at the Florida Bank Friday. Scan-
ning through the catalog we ran
across a 5-piece "parlor suite"
which sold for $14.95. That's fourteen
dollars and ninety-five cents. Do you
- believe it? A pair of men's dress
.:shoes sold for $2.95. 'Today the
"parlor suite" sells for $300.00 and
up and the shoes go for around
$30.00. That is what inflation has
Done.
S There's no way we would advo-
cate reverting back to the days when
a "parlor suite" sold for $14.95,
-because most men didn't earn this


much for a week's work. Mostly
prices are in line with wages, but in
time of inflation this ratio gets out of
balance and the more you try to
control it artificially, the worse it
gets.
To be a thing of value, some-
thing must be limited or scarce. A
pebble could serve as money just as
well as a dollar bill except that no
one would go out and work for a
pebble when he could get one by just
picking it up off the ground.
To serve as money, the dollar
must be of liinited supply. The
results of expanding the money
supply in excess of any increase in
tangible total national wealth are
absolutely inescapable. More dol-
lars representing the same amount
of tangible national wealth means
each dollar is worth proportionately
less. This is inflation.
Government cannot create
wealth; only working productive
citizens can do that.
As we say, we are not for
reverting to the $2.95 pair of shoes;
neither do we look forward to the
day when we'll be paying $300.00 for
a pair. We are for the dollar being
worth a dollar and resent the
government cheapening the few we
manage to collect to carry around in
our pocket.

the section of curves and rocks
are making it dangerous for
barges and tugs to navigate
this particular section for a
distance of six miles.
The Chattahoochee business
man said the Corps of Engin-
eers has plans to put a low
level dam across the river just
below the rocky shoals, which
would rise 14 feet above the
bottom of the channel and
allow free flowing of the river
water across the top of the
structure. Other construction
would be a lock to allow
barges to go past the dam and
a 600 foot levee on the east side
of the river. Gissendaner said
about 600 acres would be
flooded in the plan, which
would provide flood protection
for other property in the area.
SGissendaner said, "The only
objection we have had is that
the seafood production at Apa-
lachicola would be affected."
He 'showed records which
stated that oyster production
in the bay has increased
steadily since the dam was
placed at Chattahoochee. The


report shows there are now
five times more oysters har-
vested in the bay than before
the dam was built.
The speaker also pointed to
the economic impact of regu-
lar shipping on the river.
"There are now over five
million bushels of soybeans
now being grown in Florida
counties alone served by the
river, all of whom wish to ship
by water", he said. Other
shippers wanting water trans-
portation include producers of
oil,. fertilizer, paper, and
many other products up and
down the river. "Most of these
products would come through
Port St. Joe for re-shipment,
since Port St. Joe is the sea'
outlet for the river system",
the speaker said. He pointed
South that such activity would
make many high-paid jobs for
Port St. Joe and Gulf County.
Guests of the club were Mrs.
Addie Middlebrooks of Do-
than, Ala., with the Tri-Rivers
organization and David Carl
Gaskin and Joe Alligood of
Wewahitchka.


Letters to theEditor


Dear Mr. Ramsey:
I am a 17-year-old girl who
is somewhat disturbed by
what is happening in our com-
munity. I guess it's every-
where and always will be, but
I feel that the few people who
feel as I do should speak up.
My letter pertains to our
Dixie Youth baseball season,
which is going on at this time.
You know, it's really sad to go
to the ball aprk and see some
of the small children exposed
to what goes on there. I guess
some people say that it. all,
comes back to "spoiled and
disrespectful kids and teen-
agers,"-at least-that is the.
names given to us by mo
parents and elders. But, par-
ents, let's think, why are we
like that?
The majority of the coaches
out there, are there for win-
ning, and that's good, but isn't
it more important to teach our
children a feeling of fair play
and how to be confident of
themselves on as well as off
the field. Coaches have a
bigger influence over boys
than they sometimes realize.
As for the umpires, it was
really a shame to see the fans,
players and their coaches run
off some of the men of our
community who tried to help
out by refereeing the games,
some men didn't even have
children. Now, the City has
recruited young boys to act as
umpires, and the fans, players
and their coaches are going to
eventually run them off also.
"If the adults can't please the
adults, how do you expect
these young boys to?" I can
honestly say that.I don't think
any of the boys care enough
for one team to deliberately
make bad calls. They all try to
call them as they see them.
Even though their calls don't
always please everyone, don't
crucify them!
As I think back, I just don't
recall all of this criticism, al-
though I'm sure that it went
on. I don't ever remember
seeing the batters turn around
and tell the umpires they were
wrong (even though they may
have felt that way), or the
coaches and fans criticize and
embarass the umpires as they
have this year. Think about it,
do we honestly realize what
we are doing to our children?
Do someone a favor and tell
them that they've done a good
job, even if maybe in your
eyes they haven't. It does so
much more for the betterment
of a person to commend them
occasionally, instead of con-
stant criticism. If adults are
going to criticize the youth of


today, they need to.be setting
some sort of an example for us
to follow, and if these adults I
hear in the stand are the same
adults who say, "The kids
have gone to the dogs," I think
they might better take another
look!
Name Withheld Upon Request

Dear Mr. Ramsey:
On behalf of millions of chil-
dren who suffer from lung-
damaging diseases, I want to
say "thank you" to the people
in Port St. Joe who contributed
so generoulsy to the Breath of
Life Campaign, and to the
volunteers who gave their val-
uable time and untiring efforts
in all the campaign activities.
We also heartily thank the
newspaper, radio and televis-
ion stations in Port.St. Joe and
Panama City for their interest
and excellence in reporting the
plight of these children and
our campaign to help them.
All of these people have
shown they really care about
lung-damaged children. They
have helped raise a total of
$150.95 in the Port St. Joe
area, which will support the
Cystic Fibrosis Foundation
programs for diagnosis, treat-
ment, research and public
education.
Research is accelerating to
find a control or cure for Cys-
tic Fibrosis, one of the most
serious genetic diseases. Re-
cent advances have also
brought us closer than ever to
developing a practical test to;
identify the carriers of this in-
herited disease. About one in
20 people is believed to carry
the recessive gene for C-F.
The medical care now pro-
viding over 117 Cystic Fibro-
sis Centers is lengthening the
lives of our C-F children and,
in many cases, relieving or
curing the conditions of chil-
dren suffering severe asthma,
chronic bronchitis, bronchi-
ectasis and a condition some-
times called "childhood em-
physema."
We are encouraged by this
progress, and we thank our
friends here in Port St. Joe; a
special thanks to the Florida
First National Bank, the First
Baptist Church, Dixie Seafood
Market, Mr. Charles Brock,
the Pepsi Cola Company, and
the Dixie Youth League. At
the same time, we ask every-
one to renew their dedication
to the continuation of this fight
against lung-damaging di-
seases in our children.

Other Editors Are Saying:


Proposed Gas Tax Unfair


The gasoline tax proposal
put together by the U. S.
House Ways and Means Com-
Smittee is undesirable in most
respects. It would work direct-
ly against present efforts to
curb inflation and get the eco-
nomy moving again.
-The committee proposes to
- ~a:::'ise the federal tax three
cents a gallon Jan. 1. Further
increases would become effec-


tive, starting in 1977, as gaso-
line consumption rises about
1973 levels. Within a few
years, the tax coulOUgo as high
as 23 cents a gallon.
The purpose, we are told, is
to encourage gasoline conser-
vation. That is a worthy goal,
but the penalties may be too
high, the consequences too
great. Besides, the poiver to
tax should be reserved for


financing government. It
should not be used to mani-
pulate the economy. We have
gone too far on that course
already.
Addit -o1l gasoline taxes
should not be imposed at any
governmental level without
careful consideration of the
impact on the economy. A
higher tax is clearly inflation-
ary, and as such, the effects on


the econom~-w~i 'e pro-
found.
It is true the congressional
plan contains a tax rebate pro-
vision for individuals and a
tax deduction plan for busi-
ness to cover what the com-
mittee members figure is
essential driving. But the
figures being used are hardly
realistic for individuals who
have no alternative ways to


get to work other than an auto-
mobile or who must rely on a
vehicle to produce income.
The plan is essentially un-
fair because the driver who
makes a conscientious effort
to conserve fuel pays the same
tax as the individual who reck-
lessly wastes fuel.
Penalties in the form of
higher taxes should not be im-
posed until the nation has had
the opportunity to adjust to the
need for conservation. The
auto industry should be given
time to produce vehicles
which use fuel more efficient-
ly.


When penalties are design-
ed, they should be against the
,wasteful driver and not in-
clude those who try to con-
serve.
Most important, there
should be careful calculation
of what these penalties might
do to the overall economy,
particularly as they might
concern jobs. We don't think
the Ways and Means Commit-
tee has given any considera-
tion to the economic impact of
its proposed tax hikes, which
is reason enough to pull back
the bill for a complete over-
haul.

Rish Gives Aid


In Fuel Rebate


TALLAHASSEE Repre-
sentative Billy Joe Rish, (D)
Port St. Joe, announced Fri-
day that Public Service Com-
mission Chairman William J.
Mayo, has assured him that no
refunds have been made to
Gulf Power Company by its
fuel suppliers, and that any
possible refunds will be pass-
ed on to the company's con-
sumers.
"Both the Public Service
Commission and the Federal
Energy Administration are
investigating overcharges
made by fuel suppliers," said
Rish. "Mr. Mayo explained in
a recent letter that any re-
funds found due Gulf Power
will be passed on to the con-
sumer."
Mayo's letter was written in
response to an inquiry made
by Rish, in conjunction with


Lynn Haven officials. The in-
quiry questioned the policy for
distributing funds allegedly
received by Gulf Power from
its fuel supplier as reimburse-
ment for fuel over charges.
Rish stated that he would
follow up on this matter to
make sure that any over-
charge found due the custom-
er of Gulf Power would be re-
funded to the customer.

Damming of the Apalachi-

has helped the seafood pro-
duction in Apalachicola Bay,
J. C. Gissendaner told the
Rotary Club last Thursday.
Gissendaner, of Chattahoo-

Rivers Development Associa-
tion, was plugging for a low-
level dam to be constructed
near Blountstown to aid navi-
gation on the River.
"We have one big problem
on the River", Gissendaner
said, "which is keeping ship-
ping operations off the river
nearly 60 percent of the time."
The speaker said the big
problem with the navigable
channel is a series of curves in
the River north of Blounts-
town which have an enormous
amount of rock in the river
bed. "If we could get adequate
water over these rocks, river
shippers would have it made
and would be able to operate
with a great deal of consisten-
cy." Gissendaner said that at
present, in times of low water,

By Shrdlu


By: WESLEY R. RAMSEY


I thought you might like to know that after
being in session for 30 days, half of the regular
session, the Florida Legislature has sent its first
bill to the Governor for his signature.
You might be interested in knowing this bill
designated the Atlantic sailfish as the state's salt
water fish and the large mouth bass as Florida's
fresh water fish.
I wonder how much this meaningful bit of
legislation cost us?
I can readily see why it took 30 days to get
this important matter out of the way. When one
had to argue over the merits of the mullet or the
red breast bream or the shellcracker, he had a
debate on his hands. It took some powerful
politicing to overcome the attributes of the
mullet in choosing the state's salt water fish.

I saw my first complete high school baseball
game Friday afternoon when the Sharks played
Florida High for the District championship. I
saw part' of another one, but this was the first
complete game. Once again,.I was encountered
by what I had missed by not making it a point to
see more of them. The Sharks play a good brand
of baseball and since they are right up there in
the thick of the play-offs each year, they prove
they are consistent winners.
You couldn't beat the thrill of some of the
Sharks' games. When Bruce May slammed a
triple against the right field wall, those who were
there shouted just as they would on the
completion of a 50 yard pass. When John Owens
homered over the left field wall with the bases
full, it was as exciting as the Sharks pushing over
the winning touchdown. There was Mark
Wimberly, who was evidently bushed in the last
inning, following through on every pitch so far
he was touching the ground with his throwing
hand on every delivery, but he reared back to
throw again. His tiring arm allowed three men to
get on base, then he just threw harder and blew a
third strike past the tying run to end the game.
The thrills were there. That last out strike-out
was as exciting as any goal line stand on the one
yard line.
I'm glad I went to the game Friday, even
though, my reason for going wasony to,.,make
some pictures of the tournament game. My only
regret is that I didn't go to more.
I know the small attendance is because the
Sharks usually play during the middle of a work
day. Hope you do like I'm doing right now, and
make a resolve to make it a point to try and see
more games next year.

That period of time in the spring of the year
has arrived when the fishing is better than great
here in the Panhandle. All the perch family is
trying to bed which leads to good catches almost
anywhere a man (or woman) wishes to go.
Fishing isn't an activity left strictly for the men
and we can prove it here in Port St. Joe. We have
several women in town who can out-fish most
men any day of the week.
We keep getting reports here at The Star
about this party catching 90, or that one a
hundred and so forth, with no visible results to be
produced as yet. Everybody wants to talk about
numbers of fish, but nobody wants to show them.
I suspect the reason is just as "Cat" Sylvester
told me at the ambulance service banquet
Saturday night. "Cat" said he and his wife had
been to Lake Wimico all day and caught about 90.
"There were some as big as grows and some as
little as grows", "Cat" said. I suspect there are
more "as little as grows" caught than there "as
big as grows". This is the reason you hear rather
than see evidence of these big fish catches.
Even so, I'd like to be able to tell such a tale
just once. As long as I have lived in Florida and
as many times as I have been fishing, I have
never fished on a bed.














SHolding the Sack,


Pioneer Snipe Hunts


Baffled Understanding

by CHARLIE WEBB
.<,,. --.-w.wwI


The snipe hunts of pioneer
boys were played by one group
of boys that knew about snipe
hunts and another group that
did not know about the game.
The boy selected to hold the
corn sack for catching the
snipe was carried deep into
the river swamp. The other
group of boys were supposed
to run the snipe into the bag,
but would usually go home and
leave the poor victim holding
the bag alone, listening all
night long to the fear-produc-
ing, hollow swamp sounds of
hoot owls.
How one group of boys knew
about snipe hunting, while
another group knew nothing
about the game of snipe in the
peace and quiet of the valley,


year after year, was difficult
to understand. This could
indicate some of the eccen-
trics of knowledge within the
same environment.
All the boys had hopes that
were seldom fulfilled of own-
ing the Black Beauty bicycle,
illustrated in the mail order'
catalog, its little leather tool
box neatly attached to the
back of the bicycle seat.
We spent about equal time
at the head and tail end of the.
spelling match held each Fri-
day afternoon at the school
house.
Also, we drank the same
spring-head, or well water,
while enjoying- the taste of
soft-fried white side meat,
produced from the acorn-eat-


ing razorback hogs. On Sun-
days there was always a slice.
of jelly cake prepared by the
best cook and mother in all the
world.
Perhaps in the beautiful
vastness, the ever advancing
and somewhat peculiar irreg-
ularity of most all human
knowledge there will always
remain a wholesome respect
for the mellow.. 'knowledge'
within all elderly people in the
twilight of their lives, and a'
hesitant, but deep apprecia-
tion of the vibrant and baffling
knowledge of the ever increas-
ing hordes or. new humanity,
that could never know about
the pioneer game of snipe
hunting.

as camp director.
When the girls arrived Fri-
day afternoon, the first order
of business was to set up sleep-
ing areas. The Brownies slept,
on mats in the main lodge and
the Juniors and Cadettes slept
in tents in the primitive area.
After a bag lunch, some troops
built campfires for the even-
ing sing.
Early Saturday morning,
after raising the U. S. flag, the
girls built cook fires and cook-
ed breakfast. After clean-up
most of the girls hiked the
Nature Trail provided by the
residents of Magnolia Beach.
All took a well deserved rest
after cooking and eating
lunch. Next came a splash
period in the bay, after which
the girls enjoyed skits pro-
duced by Troops 187, 114 and,'
`'248 Upon coripletfibt'61 the"
evening meal, all'99 Scouts
gathered beneath the flag and
had a Bridging Ceremony for
the eligible Brownies and Jun-
iors.
After dark the campfires
were cozy places to congre-
gate to sing, pop corn, and
make some mores. With a full
day behind them, all the
Scouts crawled into their
sleeping bags and fell fast
asleep while listening to the
trill of the whiporwills.
Early Sunday morning after
posting the colors and eating a
hearty breakfast, the girls


held a religious service with
each troop leading a part.
Mrs. Malone. thanked God for
providing this opportunity to
all present to enjoy a safe
camp and asked His blessing
to see all safely home. There-
upon everyone cleaned up
camp, packed up their gear
and left for home.
With the cooperation of
many people, fathers who
kept other children and par-
ents who provided transport-
ation, this week-end was a tre-
mendous success.

To protect labor's interests, as
workers and union members,
then members, too, must be
active. It has been learned
through bitter experience that
gains won at the collective
bargaining table or through
sacrifice on the picket line
can be wiped out by anti-
labor politicians.
To protect the gains labor
has made and to make even
further improvements in the
future, members must parti-
cipate in government and the

cal leaders.

Dorthey Williams


She's "Girl of the Year"


Since, corn meal first appeared at Jamestown, Virginia, in 1608,
maize-based quick-breads have continued to gain popularity.
In this recipe, corn meal's appeal is augmented by a savory
combination of Cheddar cheese, tangy mustard, crunchy green
pepper and crisp bacon. Cheesy' Corn B.read is an easy-to-prepare
accompaniment for any meal delightful with fish, chicken or
ham.
America's early colonists would have been envious of the mod-
ern convenience of enriched self-rising corn meal and flour. The
preblending of baking powder and salt eliminates time-consuming
preparation. Enriched self-rising corn meal and flour also provide
three essential B-vitamins niacin, thiamine and riboflavin plus
the minerals, iron and calcium, all vitally important in maintaining
daily good health.
Cheesy Corn Bread
6 servings
2 cups enriched self-rising 1 cup Cheddar cheese,
corn meal shredded
2 tablespoons.sugar teaspoon dry mustard
Se b cup green pepper, thinly
2 eggs, beaten sliced
1 cup milk 3 slices bacon, fried and
cup oil crumbled
Stir together corn meal and sugar. Blend eggs, milk and oil. Add
liquid all at once to corn meal mixture, stirring until'smooth. Pour
into greased 9 x 1'/2-inch round baking pan. Combine cheese and
mustard; sprinkle over batter. Top with green pepper and crumbled
bacon. Bake in preheated 425 oven 25 to 30 minutes, or until
cheese is bubbly and mixture is golden.

Career Activities


Put In Program


Thirty plus teachers, in Gulf
County schools, have fused.
one or more career related
activities into their regular
classroom program this year.
t.To aid these teachers, indivi-
duals, who are proficient in
their field, have shared their
time and experience with
many groups. Several groups
have participated in other
activities such as field trips.
"Bad decisions 'are due
more to the lack of informa-
tion than to poor judgment."


Through these experiences
students are able to gain in-
formation which can aid them
to.prepare for a meaningful
and satisying life.
These activities help stu-
dents build desirable concepts
and values concerning dignity
in value and interdependence
of work and play. Those who
.develop these, values and
attitudes, are better prepared
to participate in intelligent
decision making.

How often have I quoted
dollar signs and inner peace
to someone uneducated in
the field of game manage-
ment and found only deaf
ears or preconceived notions
rebuffing my words?
Is it possible that a person
who does not hunt or other-
wise enjoy Florida's great
outdoors does not know that
hunters' financial contribu-
tions have helped all wildlife,
not just game birds and
animals?
A recent discussion before
a local civic club brought out
the dollars behind the 1934
Migratory Bird Hunting
Stamp Act and the several
million acres of marshlands
m acquired through this hunter
supported program. In turn,
the similar funding of
millions of additional acres in
Canada, through Ducks un-
I limited, added to the avail-
able nesting and breeding
areas needed by all water-
fowl.
As the clincher, I once
again reminded these men of
the community that refuge
managers did not send out
teams of biologists to break
the eggs of nongame birds
which nested there by the
millions nor did a crew of
workmen spend their time
posting signs reading "Game
birds only, all others find
someplace else to nest."

Guf County Deyeloper Touring the


Nation with Saudia Arabian Sheik


It seems that Florida is
currently a favorite spot for
mid-eastern royality and dig-
nitaries. Shortly after a visit
by King Hussein of Jordan, to
the Capitol in Tallahassee a
few days ago, it has been
learned that Sheik Ghalid
Mansur Refae, of Saudi Ara-
bia, is to come to Florida on a
combined business and good-
will tour.
The Sheik arrived in New
York several days ago from
Paris via Air Frace, and is
currently on the West Coast at
un undisclosed location. Tra-
veling by private jet in 'this
country; he has visited Okla-
homa City and Wichita, Kan-


sas, where he inspected the
Lear Jet Mfg. Company plant.
Among those traveling with
the Sheik are former Okla-
homa Congressman Victor
Wickersham and Eddy Shel-
ley, President of Shellbuilt
Construction Company of Port
St. Joe, and New York. Shell-
Built Construction Co. ;is
developing a new subdivision,
Christie's Beach, near Indian
Pass.
The Sheik's trip to the Sun-
shine State will include sev-
eral business conferences with
some of Florida's leading road
building and heavy construc-
tion companies. The purpose
of these meetings is to set up

and bluewing teals benefit
from the hunters' dollars even
more than the game birds,
simply because they are more
numerous in species.
But let a casual bird-
watcher fail to see his or her
share of various birdlife and
the old line about hunters
decimating the flying popula-
tion promptly surfaces.
And I begin to wonder if
presenting the facts about
hunters paying for conserva-
tion is reaching any further
than the sound of my own
voice.
Apply the same arguments
to big game herds and their
proliferation, or the normal
mortality rates of the dove or
quail and, once again, facts
seem to be ignored by minds
already made up.
My license money, duck
stamp dollars and 11 per cent
excise tax on every sporting
dollar has in the past, is
continuing in the present and
will hopefully be permitted in
the future to pay for and
support conservation.
This doesn't win many
arguments. But, perhaps, it is
the one way the sportsman of
Florida and this country can
continue to enjoy their great
outdoors. Hunters pay for
conservation and I am a
hunter.
I'll continue to save all
wildlife as I have done for so
many years, but wouldn't it
be nice to have some help.
What have you done for
conservation lately?

Thousands of products can
be made from wood as wood.
However, we haven't begun to
scratch the surface using
wood as a raw material!
Wood products research is a
booming field. This research
is concerned not only with
using high quality wood, but
also lower quality tree species
and wood waste products.
One of the earliest and prob-
ably best known methods of
utilizing wood as a raw mat-
erial is manufacturing pulp.
Florida produced 3.01 mil-
lion cords of pulp in 1973 and
claimed the two leading south-
ern counties (Taylor and Nas-
sau) in total pulp production.
Pulp production is usually
thought of in'terms of paper.
Although this was the.first use
of pulp, it is by no means the

Doug Baldwin holds the evidence that one
can grow rutabagas on the sandy soil in and
around Port St. Joe. Baldwin has proved you
can grow most anything else you want to.
Baldwin is shown with some of the fruits
Sof his labor and Dr. Bob King's advice after
their rutabaga harvest last week. Baldwin
"share crops" with Dr. King on three lots
: adjacent to the dentist's office and they raise
about all the vegetables they can eat.

Pulpwood has been convert-
ed into rayon and "Arnel"
fabrics, sponge hair rollers,
kitchen sponges, plastics, imi-
tation leather and sausage
casing. Wood cellulose ia a
main constituent of diet foods
on the grocer's shelf, and is a
bulk additive in toothpaste.
Chemicals from wood are
used in chewing gum, as the
base of imitation flavor ex-
tracts and perfumes.
The utilization of residues
from wood products is under
intensive research:
Sawdust from mills has
been used as bedding for dairy
cows. It has also been made
into artificial wood, linoleum
filler and briquettes and cattle
food on which cows' showed
better weight gains and health -
than on hay.
Surplus bark has many


techniques to the partnership, and Bob King
adds his South Alabama-farm life heritage to
the truck crop. Dr. King gives the benefit of
his past knowledge to Baldwin and Baldwin
goes ahead and does what he wants.
A tip of good advice though: when they
begin to divide up the crop get a safe distance
away. They disagree over who did what and
.who gets what. No blows have passed, but an
occasional head of cabbage is cast wildly
when the discussion gets lively.

Game Reserve


Hunters will


Need Quota

Florida hunters will be faced with something new this
season. For the first time, all hunters who hunt on wildlife
management areas will be required to have a special "Quota
Hunter Permit" if they plan to hunt on a wildlife management
area during the opening days of the 1975 hunting season. This
permit will be required for the period November 8 through
November 16.
WHO NEEDS A FLORIDA HUNTING LICENSE?
A hunting.license is required to take or attempt to take wild-
life in Florida, and all hunters are required to have a license
except children under the age of 15 and residents age 65 and
over.,Hunting licenses are issued on or around the first of June
and are valid through June 30 of the following year.
WHAT IS A WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT AREA PERMIT
STAMP?
This permit stamp is required to hunt on a Florida Wildlife
Management Area and allows a hunter to hunt on areas
administered by the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission.
This stamp is a small permit with gummed backing and must be
attached to the hunter's license. Each stamp contains an identi-
fying number.
WHO NEEDS A WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT AREA PERMIT
STAMP?
All hunters hunting on a Wildlife Management Area are
required to have a Wildlife Management Area stamp except
residents age 65 and over.
WHAT DOES A WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT AREA PERMIT
STAMP COST?
A Wildlife Management Area stamp costs $10. Stamps for
hunters under age 15 cost $2.50.
WHERE DO I PURCHASE HUNTING LICENSES AND
PERMIT STAMPS?
All licenses and Wildlife Management Area stamps are sold
by County Tax Collectors and their authorized license agents.
License agents are frequently found at sporting goods stores and
fishing and hunting camps.
WHAT ABOUT LICENSES FOR SENIOR CITIZENS?
Any citizen who has resided in.Florida for one year, and six
months in the county, may obtain without charge a Senior
Citizen Certificate from his County Tax Collector.
DO I NEED ADDITIONAL PERMIT TO HUNT ON WILDLIFE
MANAGEMENT AREAS?
Ifyou hunt on a Wildlife Management Area during the first
nine days of the season, November 8 through November 16, you
will need special Quota Hunt-Permittohunt on a specified and
designated area during this period.
WHERE DO I GET THIS QUOTA HUNT PERMIT?
You must apply for this permit on a special application form
available at the offices of County Tax Collectors and license
agents. Application forms will be available on or around the first
of June.
WHAT IS THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS PERMIT?
The Quota Hunt Permit will limit the number of hunters on
individual Wildlife Management Areas during the first nine
days of the season. Limiting the hunting pressure (number of
hunters) on a wildlife area will improve the quality of hunting
and probably extend the wildlife harvest for a longer period.
Research indicates that about eighty percent of the legal deer on
a wildlife area are harvested within the first two weeks of a
hunting season.

HOW MANY HUNTERS WILL BE ALLOWED ON A
WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT AREA?
This will depend on the individual area. The factor
determining the quota of hunters on an area is determined by the
area size plus the quantity and quality of wildlife and habitat. A
big area with low wildlife population and poor habitat will not
support the same hunting pressure that a similar size area with
good game population and excellent habitat.
WHO DETERMINES WHICH AREA I WILL BE ALLOWED TO
HUNT?
Sportsmen have the opportunity to select their own pre-
ferred areas. Each hunter must indicate on his permit applica-
Stion a choice of area or areas.
HOW IS THE PERMIT SELECTION MADE?
Quota Hunt Permits are issued on a first-come, first-served
basis. When your permit application is received by the Game
and Fresh Water Fish Commission at Tallahassee, it will be
stamped with date and time received, and if the quota for your
first choice wildlife area has not been filled, you will receive a
permit for this .area. If the quota is filled, you will then be
considered for your second choice.
HOW MUCH DOES THE QUOTA HUNT PERMIT COST?
The nine day Quota Hunt Permit is issued without charge.
WHAT ABOUT MY HUNTING BUDDIES?
You may submit as many as five applications in one
envelope and the five will receive consecutive numbers. If one
receives a permit, all will, or if the first choice quota is filled, all
will receive a permit for a second or third choice area.
CAN -I SUBMIT MORE THAN ONE APPLICATION?
No. A word of caution for you and your hunting buddies is
that duplication of permit applications will result in all applica-
tions being rejected. Each application must contain the name
and address of the hunter and the number of his Wildlife
Management Area Permit Stamp. The applications will be
processed by computer and will reject all duplicate numbers.
WHERE CAN I HUNT AFTER THE FIRST NINE DAYS?
After the first nine days, you may hunt on any open Wildlife
Management Area. All you need is your hunting license and
your Wildlife Management Area Permit Stamp.
WHAT ABOUT SPECIAL STAMPS?
The Quota Hunt Permit has eliminated the necessity of
special stamps previously required for the Ocala, Camp
Blanding, Avon Park, Fisheating Creek and other Wildlife
Areas.
WHEN WILL I KNOW WHERE I WILL BE PERMITTED TO
HUNT?
Much will depend on you and when you submit your Quota
Hunt application. Permits will be issued every 30 days starting
July 1 and continue through October 1. After October 1, all
permits not issued will be available on a first-come, first-served
basis at the five Regional Offices of the Game and Fresh Water
Fish Commission.
WHAT ABOUT SENIOR CITIZENS AND YOUNG HUNTERS?
Senior citizens should identify their Quota Hunt application
with the number on their Seriior Citizen Certificate (available at
offices of County Tax Collectors). Young hunters (15 and under)
should use the number on their underage Wildlife Management
Area Permit Stamp.
WILL EVERYONE HAVE A CHANCE TO HUNT ON A
WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT AREA?
Probably not everyone will be able to hunt on the area of
their first choice but everyone will have a chance to hunt on at
least one area of his choice.


Persons unable to obtain a
birth certificate may have
been born before 1920, before
birth registration became
mandatory in every state. Or
their birth record may have
been accidentally destroyed
by flood or fire, or simply
never recorded. Or they may
have been unable to obtain a
delayed birth certificate be-
cause they couldn't lay their
hands on acceptable evidence
of their birth such as a baptis-
mal certificate, a family Bible
in which their birth was chron-
icled, or an affidavit from the
attending doctor or midwife.
Every 10 years in years
ending in zero, as you know,
the Bureau of the Census takes
a population census, gathering
facts about every human be-
ing in the country. Realizing
how valuable this information
might be to anybody called
upon to prove his existence,
the Bureau wisely established
its Personal Census Service
Branch, more commonly
known as the Age Search
Branch, which will send any-
one who applies for it a trans-
cript of his own census record
from the census year that will
best serve his needs. '
For example, a man born in
1905 who wants certification of
his age would probably be sent
a copy of his census record
from the decennial census of
'1910. The record would not
contain his birth date, but it
would show him as having
been five years old in 1910,
which is just as good. He can
then present this record as
supporting evidence when ap-
plying to the State in which he
was born for a delayed birth
certificate. Or he can use it in
lieu of a birth certificate. Cen-
sus records are now accepted
as a substitute by all Federal
and State agencies and by vir-
tually all of private industry.
Since 1920, when the Age
Search Branch was establish-


ed, nearly 10 million persons
have taken advantage of this
unique service. Currently, ap-
proximately 350,000 requests
are received annually, a total
that comes to about 1,300
daily.
SPeople write in for docu-
mentary evidence of age for
reasons of employment, re-
tirement, driver's license, in-
surance, military service, in-
come tax, marriage, voter
registration, welfare benefits,
even Little League baseball-
anything that requires evi-
dence of age. The Social Se-
curity Administration and the
Railroad Retirement Board
Agency both place great reli-
ance on census records, and
they assist many persons each
year in obtaining acceptable
evidence of age through cen-
sus records.
Census records can also
give evidence of citizenship
for passport purposes, of occu-
pation (for example black
lung benefits for coal miners),
and of relationship for estates
or inheritances, insurance,
DAR membership, family re-
cords, and other genealogical
purposes.
All information in census
records is confidential by law.,
The Bureau of the Census and
every one of its employees is
prohibited by Federal law
from disclosing any informa-
tion contained in the census
records except to the person,
himself, or for a proper pur-
pose, to a legal representa-
tive.
Information about a minor
child may be obtained upon
written request of either
parent. For records pertain-
ing to a deceased person, the
application may be signed by
a blood relative in the immed-
iate family, the surviving
spouse, a beneficiary, or the
administrator or executor of
the estate and in all cases, a
death certificate must be fur-

nished.
A fee of $7.50 is charged for
a search of two censuses and a
transcript of the information
found. Additional copies-of the
transcript cost $1.00 each.
Service general requires two
to four weeks. A fee is charged
because the Age Search
Branch is fully self-support-
ing. It does not receive any tax
monies.
Persons needing proof of
age for Social Security pur-
poses should apply to their
local Social Security office.
Others should write to the
Personal Census Service
SBranch, Bureau of the Census,
Pittsburg, Kansas 66762, for
an application form.
CARD OF THANKS
I would like to take this
means to express my heartfelt
thanks to all the wonderful
people in the area for their
cards, flowers and prayers
during my recent stay in Bay
Memorial Hospital following
surgery.
May God bless all of you.

Safety Tips for


Motorcycles


The tremendous increase in
motorcycles in Florida is prov-
ing three things about their
nature: One, they are fun to
ride, two, they are economical
to operate, and three, they can
be deadly if not handled pro-
perly said the Florida High-
way Patrol this week.
Colonel Eldrige Beach,
director of the Patrol says,
"National statistics show that
the mileage death rate
(Deaths per 100,000,000 miles
of travel) is 16 for two-wheel
motor vehicles but only 4.3 for
all motor vehicles. Deaths in-
volving motorcycles in Flor-
ida have increased for the last
three years, from 158 in 1972 to
171 in 1973 and 186 in 1974. This
should tell us that riding
motorcycles requires proper
training and handling techni-
ques."
The Patrol offers these safe-
ty tips for motorcycles:
-Don't start with the most
powerful models. .
-Check schools, etc., to see
if anyone, is, teaching the'


center.
Kenneth herring, Principal,
Port St. Joe High School,
presented the proposed pro-
gram for Port St. Joe High
School for the 1975-76 school
year. The school class sche-
dule will be made available to
each parent. A copy of this
schedule is on file in the Super-
intendent's office.
The proposed budget for
Port St. Joe High School was
presented by Kenneth Her-
ring, Supervising Principal.
Funds in each account num-
ber were discussed. A copy of
this budget is on file in the
Superintendent's office.
On motion by Whitfield, sec-
onded by Greer, the Board
voted unanimously to apply
for federal funds for the
1975-76 school year.
On motion by Raffield, sec-
onded by Ard, all voted Yes to
approve a Resolution to be
sent to the legislature request-
ing that the school board be
removed from the list of agen-
cies required to publish the
board agenda seven days
prior to board meetings. A
copy of this Resolution is on
file in the Superintendent's
office.
Laura Geddie, Director of
Instruction, gave a detailed
report on the Exceptional
Child Program, and described
the program for the 1975-76
school year. The program will
be basically the same as last
year. The philosophy of the
program and the services ren-
dered were discussed.
On motion by Raffield,
seconded by Greer, the Board
voted unanimously to accept
the bid of Tarpon Dock &
Metal Company for a chiller
replacement for the air condi-
tioning system at Port St. Joe
High School. Copies of all bids
are on file in the Superinten-
dent's office.
On motion by Whitfield,
seconded by Greer, ail voted
Yes to accept the bid of Gulf
Restaurant and Supply Com-
pany on equipment for the
lunchrooms at Port St. Joe
High School and Wewahitchka
High School. Copies of all'bids
are on file in the Superinten-
dent's office.
On motion by Ard, seconded
by Greer, the board voted
unanimously to advertise for
bids on two used school buses
at Port St. Joe High School.


Motorcycle Safety Founda-
tion's Beginning Rider Course.
-Start out slowly, 20 per
cent of the accidents happen
with riders who were on their
first or second ride.
-Evening hours-4:00 p.m.
to 10:00 p.m. are the most
dangerous.
-Do not carry passengers
unless your motorcycle is
equipped with a saddle and
footpegs for two persons.
-Take out proper insur-
ance.
-Use an approved helmet
with face shield. Bright color-
ed ones or.reflective tape will.
help.
-Heavy clothing, boots and
gloves will help protect you
should you spill or have a.
crash.
-Check your motorcycle
visually before each ride.
-Excessive noise from your
muffler can create a negative
attitude from the public.
Colonel Beach concluded by
saying, "The most important
factor in motorcycle safety is to
make sure othei drivers see
you. Burn your headlight in
the daytime; when riding at
night, wear bright clothing,
and use reflective tape on the
back of your helmet, gloves,
jacket and motorcycle."

Home Owners Fancy Turns.

By: Pamela A. Marshall

University of Florida
In the spring a young
man's fancy may turn to love
210.06 320 but most homeowners begin
to worry about their lawn.
Lawn care is a year round
job in Florida. However, as
1,561.55 3.20 warm weather approaches
the growth rate of the grass
increases which means mow-
ing frequency also increases.
13.33 2.40 Mowing is an essential part
of lawn care. The height to
108.72 1.60 which the lawn is cut and
how often it is cut are import-

in the proper cut- rect height for common Ber-
Cutting height for mudagrass, and '~4 to one-
third inches, the correct
height for hybrids.
The correct cutting height
6281 1,795.41 2.40 is important to the health of
your lawn. The leaves must
produce enough food to allow
5 4.25 2.40 the plant to survive and
grow If too much of the
leaves are removed the grass
will starve and your sod will
62 4.25 3.2 become thin, look bad and be
more susceptible to invasion
by weeds and pests. Mowing
too high causes the buildup of
2.010 27.71 2..4 thatch (a spongy layer of
plant debris) and produces a
650 5.58 1.60 ragged looking lawn.
The frequency of mowing is
dependent on the type of
665 9.20 2.40 lawngrass, the maintenance
program and. the weather.
Warm weather and heavy
fertilization will increase the
growth rate of grasses, as a
733 43.47 4.00 result they will need to be

mowed more often. Your
lawn should-be cut frequently
enough that no more than
one-third of the leaf surface
is removed at a time. Carpet-
grass and Centipedegrass
may not need to be cut more
often than once every 10 to 14
days while hybrid Bermuda-
grasses may need to be cut
every three days. Most lawn-
grasses fit within this range.
The important thing to
remember is leave twice as
much leaf surface as you
remove at any single mow-
ing. Or, if you want to main-
tain your lawn at two inches
cut your grass when it, is
three inches high.
It is important to follow
good mowing practices. Keep
your lawnmower sharp and
clean. Dull blades will tear
the leaves giving an uneven
ragged appearance and often
cause the lawn to look gray
or brown. Cutting grass when
it is wet clogs the mower and
often causes an uneven cut.
Remember, proper mowing
is one of the most important
factors contributing to an at-
tractive lawn. Proper mow-
ing means that the grass is
cut at the. optimum height
and often enough to keep it
healthy and attractive.
