' THIRTY-EIGHTH YEAR, NUMBER 36 0 * Industry Deep Water Port Fine People Safest Beaches in Florida PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1975 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.

The Commission reach- 'ed an agreement with the successful bidder Tuesday night to negotiate the genera- tor part of the project. The City Commission felt it could secure a surplus generator at a much less cost to serve the same purpose. Other bids for the police station project included, $34,- 650.00 from Griffin Construc- tion Company and $36,500.00 from Kolmetz Construction :Company. This project, also, is expect- ed to get underway in the next few days. 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. The First Baptist Church of Port St. Joe will begin Revival services Sunday, May 11 going through Friday, May 16. The pastor of the church, Rev. Dr. Leroy Benefield Highland View Church Sets Revival The beginning of Spring-Re- vival services for Highland View Baptist Church have been announced for May 18 through May 23. The Rev.

We have had good city government for so long people seem to feel that it will continue on and .on without Fending to it. This isn't so, of course. The best way to have our city "...government deteriorate is for people to continue to ignore it and not be 'concerned when election day comes a...around. -. Everyone has their complaints. : Things aren't going to suit everyone S-most anywhere you look. They never Z-V:will. If, however, things are going to .-suit the majority, they should at' j,.jleast say so with a vote of confi- -" 7' dence. '. : Too, if the n majority is not satisfied, 'they should study the ;matter and come to the polls on 0 0 0 yourself. 0 7ote Tuesday 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 spoken word is lost; the printed word remains. 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. Sincerely, Cathy Hanlon Coordinator, Port St. Joe Greater Florida Chapter Cystic Fibrosis Foundation May 1, 1975 Dear Mr. and Mrs. Ramsey: Thank you so very much for making it possible for my mass media class to visit The Star on April 29.

Your continued cooperation with our school, our students and our teachers is deeply appreciated. Thank your for the timeand.., effort you and your staff ghve. for our benefit. Sincerely, Margaret Biggs (Mrs.) April 28, 1975 Dear Mr. Ramsey: Our fifth grade class (Group A) wishes to express their appreciation to you for letting us tour The Star. Please give. our special thanks to Mrs. Shirley Ram- sey for being our guide. Sincerely yours, Fifth Grade Class, Group A April 29, 1975 Dear Mr. Ramsey: ; Thank you for letting our class come and visit The Star. We enjoyed it very much. Please thank Mrs. Shirley Ramsey for showing us a- round. Maybe one day we can come back and see the press working. Yours truly, The Fifth Grade Group B Aid Students In Finding Work The members of the F.H.A., along with their advisor, are making an all out effort to help Home Economics students im- prove their earning power. The group has a number of persons available who are willing to work at most home related jobs. Persons volunteering to work will do such tasks as baby sitting, light housekeep- ing, yard work, short order cook and many others. Any interested person wish- ing to hire someone for jobs as mentioned, contact Port St. Joe High School at 227-5281. Leave a message with Mrs. Cooper, or if she is not availa- ble, let Mrs. Kirkland know of your interest and proper con- tact will be made. 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. -Tallahassee Democrat THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1975 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.

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, $300 Pair of Shoes N Etaoin 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.

Cadette Troop 144, with Sally Malone serving 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. THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla.

To protect the gains labor has made and to make even further improvements in the future, members must parti- cipate in government and the election of the nation's politi- cal leaders.

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.

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."

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.

Edenfield, County Forester 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 Trmr- 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. Baldwin brings his West Florida farming Left to right: Principal Edwin Williams, Terry Brown, Robert Capps, Janet Murphy and Becky Gable show awards. Star Photo DCT Class Presents Awards to Students The DCT Class of Port St. Joe High School had an awards presentation cere- mony Tuesday of this week. Certificates of Merit were presented to Janet Murphy, Robert Capps, Becky Gable and Terry Brown by Edwin G. Williams, Principal of the high school.

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.

SUnless you have documen- tation you'll get nowhere pro- testing as Will Rogers once did: "I can't prove I was born, but you can't deny I'm here." A total of 320,899 persons in the United States who found themselves in that predica- ment in 1974 turned to the U. S. Bureau of the Census for help. (The Bureau is part of the U. S. Department of Commerce's Social and Economic Statis- tics Administration.) More than two-thirds of ap- plicants receiving help from the Census Bureau in 1974 lived in 11 southern states: Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, Loui- siana, Virginia, Arkansas, Florida and Texas. 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- 14.0 cu. ft. Capacity Frost-Free Refrigerator-Freezer with Adjustable Shelf $369 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.

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.

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." We don't have forests to burn.

Marshall 7.05 2.40 Horticultural Writer 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- Acres; Lots 1, 4, 10 orig. 69.06 4.80 S32T5R8; 1acrein SE corner.

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 1 '-I 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.
