Rabies



at St. Joe Beach

A St. Joe Beach man was recently bitten
by a dog which was later found to be rabid by-
the Florida Division of Health officials. The
dog was confined for the normal 10 day in-
cubation period, but died on the ninth day. His
head was sent to the Florida Division of Health
Laboratory, where the dog was determined to
have rabies.
The man is currently undergoing a series.
(14) of painful rabies shots.
Rabies is almost invariably fatal without :
treatment. It is primarily a disease of animals "
and is transmitted 'to man, by the bite of a 7
rabid animal or rarely by the 'saliva of rabid
animals entering a scratch or other break in
the skin of humans.
An unusual number, of animal bites have,,
been reported in Gulf County this year. All
animal bites should be reported to the local -
health department, to check for rabies.
Dr. Gerald E. Butts, Veterinarian of :'.
Panama City, will be in Port St. Joe at the
Fire Station this Saturday,- July 19 from
two p.m. until 5:30 p.m. EDT to give
anti-rabies vaccinations to animals.

-The most; popular item in -
the county at this time seems 7
to be outboard motors. Some
person or persons with sticky
hands have been carting away
the outboards like 'they think
they are going out of style'.'
In Port St. Joe alone, over
the past two weeks, nine
motors have been reported ,-"
stolen and several have been '.
stolen in the Wewahitchka
area. V,
aThe method of theft differs,
however. In Port St. Joe, the
thieves have been entering
yards at night and removing
the motors from boats or
taking them from garages. In
Wewahitchka the thefts were
reported from boats tied at
anchor in the Chipola Cut-off.
The boats were then cut loose
and set adrift.
Police and Sheriff's investi-
gators have been working onr
the case since the first theft
was reported and have ga-
thered a few 'leads in the
cases.
Last Wednesday afternoon,
the first of the stolen motors
were recovered. Lamar Har-
dy, of 103 Allen Memorial Way
was practicing his golf over in
Constitution Park when he hit
a golf ball over into the bushes
across Gautier Lane. When he
went to retrieve the ball,
Hardy stumbled over two of
the motors in the bushes and
called police. The motors were
the property of Tommy Dixon
and Harry Murphy.
In Port St. Joe, police report
seven 20 horsepower, one six
horsepower and one 9.8 horse-
power motors missing. Patrolman Howard Rogers and Chief Buck Griffin inspect recovered motors


Test Shows Gulf County Students Up to State Average


Talk to most any parent of a
child in the Gulf County school
system and he will have
serious reservations about
how well prepared his child is
to go on to higher studies.
Does he get the basics needed
to improve on 'his education
and how far below the state
average is the local student
working?
If the results of a recent
state-wide test are correct and
offer a true picture of the
condition and quality of the
student's knowledge, Gulf
County students are running
along about the state average
in the basic skills of mathema-
tics and communication. That
word "communication",
covers a lot of territory such
as reading, word and letter re-
cognition, sounds of letters,.


comprehension of what is
read, how to use reference
materials such as dictiona-
ries, etc.
Mathematics covered a
wide area also, such as addi-
tion, multiplication, division
with and without remainders,
geometry, how to count mon-
ey, tell time, figure written
problems, etc.
The tests were given only to
third, sixth and ninth graders
in the school systems through-
out the state. The same ques-
tions were asked the students
on each grade level through-
out the state, thus testing the
knowledge gained by all on the
same subjects.
In Gulf County schools, the
weakest points were in long
division, especially with a re-
mainder, geometry, fractions,


understanding what has been
read and sentence structure.
By and large, the students of
Gulf's third, sixth and ninth
grades were on a par with
students throughout the state.
While they were deficient by
up to 15 percentage points
below the state average in the
areas mentioned above, they
were above the state average
in more instances than they
were below in other areas.
For instance, in the third
grade tests, the tests had
asked to select from a group of
words those words which con-
tained the letter "e" with the
sound such as made in the
word "be". The state average
on this question was some-
where around 93 percent while
the third grade class in We-
. wahitchka selected the proper


words 100 percent.
The Wewahitchka third
grade had by far the best
record in language arts of any
third grade tested in the
county. This class was well
above the state average, an-
swering about a third of their
questions 100 percent. In no
category was the state aver-
age above 95 per cent. In
language arts, Port St. Joe
elementary scored the lowest,
although they were not too far
off the state average. Port St.
Joe Elementary third graders
were 13 points below the state
average in being able to
alphabetize a group of words.
They were above average in
sentence recognition. Their
punctuation and capitalization
knowledge were poor.
Highland View third grade


was right at the state average.
They also had trouble with
punctuation and recognition of
sentence meaning. They were
slightly above the- state aver-
age in language skills.
The same trends of inability
to recognize what is said in
sentence and paragraphs, in-
ability to recognize sounds
and deficiencies in using ref-
erence materials such as dic-
tionaries followed the students
through the sixth and ninth
grades, with deficiencies
shown in about the same areas
as in the third grade.
Mathematics wps the strong
suit of the Gulf County stu-
dents, with all grades per-
forming at or slightly above
the state average. Results for
the Port St. Joe sixth grade
tests have not been received


as yet, but other schools
followed the same trends
through the three testing
grades and Port St. Joe's sixth
grade is expected to do so also.
Fractions, long division and
geometry gave all students
the most problem. Since Gulf
County schools do not offer
geometry in the lower grades,
it was expected the students
wouldn't do very good. State-
wide results in tnese areas
were not very good, either. In
the geometry section of the
test, the state average was 32
percent. Gulf County students
scored as low as 12 percent
and as high as 28 percent. A
surprising fact was that Gulf
County students did excep-
tionally well in the area of
solving written mathematical
problems when they had trou-


ble with the comprehension
phase of the language arts
tests.
In talking with Superinten-
dent David Bidwell following
an examination of the test
results, Bidwell said the lan-
guage arts score should begin
to improve next year. "We are
'introducing a unified language
program in the elementary
schools this year, teaching a
pupil to read by sound and
recognition of letters. Bidwell
said the new program will
eliminate the practice of each
teacher pursuing the goal of
teaching his or her students to
read in their own way. "We
feel this will cause our pupils
to have a better grasp of what
they see when they read a
printed sentence or paragraph
in the future and this will help


in the areas where this test
says our students are weakl
est".
The Superintendent said th6
math program seemed to be
getting the job done. "One
thing for sure", Bidwell said,
"Our kids can count money
and tell time". The students
scored very high in these
areas.
The purpose of the tests;
according to Bidwell is, of
course, to see where students'
need attention in the basic
skills. "The goal", Bidwell
said, "Is to have an average of
70 percent of the students
mastering 70 percent of th
skills presented in the tests";.
According to the results
received thus far, Gulf County
schools are already meeting
this goal.

Visitors from the West


Expressing Our Own


Warm Beauty W -
Sby CHARLIE WEBB
\


In the early 1920's, on an
automobile trip from Califor-
nia along the Old Spanish
Trail towards South Florida,
one would pass down our
beautiful main street.
Fronting our pretty main
street near the railroad tracks
,was a cafe that notables from
the far West would stop for a
lunch of hot pone bread,
smothered-fried, young spring
pullets and a bowl of fresh
peas, huddled around small
hunks of fat and lean salt
meat.
Among the great that stop-
ped at the cafe on our beau-
tiful street .was Brisbane, the
great columnist of former
years. He once commented
that a bowl of speckled pea
soup, mixed with hot corn
bread and a glass of butter-
milk, poured from a gallon jug
made the best meal that he
ever enjoyed in his world
travels.
All of us in town were
tempted to join with the
passing nobility in enjoying
the view of our street from a
table within the cafe. Such
urge coming from our slow
backing away from the drab

ment medicine. There are
limits of resources which must
be observed.
New York City is finding out
what happens when a munici-
pal government tries to do too
much. It is a hard lesson, and
it may be coming at the right
time to. warn other cities
against a similar course.
The British government
may be able to find sufficient
money to avert a collapse, of
the National Health Service.
About two billion dollars is
said to be needed to keep the
system in operation. If the
money can't be found, it prob-
ably will have to undergo
rather drastic surgery.
Unless Wilson's government
brings Britain's 25 per cent in-
flation rate under control,
however, any rescue opera-
tion is likely to be inadequate.
Forecasts of more turmoil
may be accurate.
Our health care services
may be inadequate in some
ways, but it should be quite
evident the British brand of
socialized medicine is a pitfall
to be avoided. We should im-
prove our present system and
keep the government out of it
as much as possible.

If You Remember, You're 50


You can tell your age by
today's column.
If you're under 45, chances
are you won't know.what this
is all about. You're pushing
50 or more if you can
remember when:
Mother used a rolling pin,
hand can opener and a
washing tub and board.
You kept your feet warm
on a winter night by heating
a brick on the wood stove and
wrapping it in old rags. (If
you were well-to-do, you
used a hot water bottle.)
Big families had a rented
house with three kids in
some bedrooms, one
bathroom and a great big
kitchen where they ate all
their meals.
You had to be rich to own
your own home, and the only
swimming pools were in
Hollywood and at the YMCA.
The kids walked to school,
sometimes wore the same
clothes two days in a row and
they let their hair grow down
over their ears and eyes only
if they couldn't afford 25
cents for a haircut.
There wei en't any parking
lots at school and no janitors.
The kids did the house and
yard cleaning.
The youngsters played


baseball in a vacant lot with
nary a single adult super-
vising them. They were
lucky if the rich kid (who
owned the ball and bat)
didn't get mad and go home,
thus breaking up the game.
For many, today's custom
of eating outside on the patio
and having the bathroom
inside was completely
reversed you ate inside
and had a bathroom outside.
You dressed each morning
and undressed each night by
the wood stove in the living-
room. The stove had a
whistling tea kettle on it.
Cars had running boards
and rumble seats.
Times have really
changed. Today everything
is modern and automated.
Some of today's modern
families with electric dish-
washers, vacuum cleaners,
etc. don't even recognize the
routine items of a generation
ago.
One modern housewife of
1975 came home one day with
one of those fancy, new shag
cut hairdos and when her
husband was asked how she
looked, replied:
"It looks like a mop!"
To which she responded
seriously: "What's a mop?"

3)r another as the best social-
ized medical care system. It
v'as founded in 1948 as the
embodiment of the socialist
ideal of free medical care for


everyone.
Medical care is basically
free for everyone. The system
provides virtually every con-
ceivable 'kind of treatment.
And therein lies much of its
problem: It tries to do too
much.
The British system-like the
French brand of socialized
medicine-has been plowing
deeper into financial trouble
for a number of years. Tax
increases haven't been sub-
stantial enough to keep up
with spending. A high inflation
rate has brought about a crisis


situation.
Of course, the money pro-

only i6e' of the British govern-
ment's current problems.
Prime Minister Harold Wil-
son's 'socialist government is
battling Britain's gravest eco-
nomic situation since World
War II. It is finding that
government can't be all things

to what it can do.
That is an important princi-
ple that America must keep in

By: WESLEY R. RAMSEY


There was a lot of interesting and thought-
provoking items in the news this past week which
could affect every man, woman and child in the
United States.
For instance, I see where Russia is trying to
make another big deal to buy U.S. wheat. The
word is that the current deal will make last
year's sale look like just a warm-up for the big
sale. The Agriculture Department says the deal
can be handled easily because of the projected
proportions of the current U.S. crop. After last
year's windfall of profits caused by the sale to
Russia and resulting shortages at home, farmers
are planting grain like crazy.
Remember, I told you last week about our
holiday trip up into what Harry Ford calls
"God's Country". I noticed, on the way up and
back, that nearly every cleared field was planted
in corn. It all seemed to be doing well, heralding
a bumper harvest in this basic grain. Corn took
the same upward trend as wheat last year
because of the demand for grain all over the
world. A year or two before, all one could see was
'soybeans planted in these same fields. Now it's
corn.
While we will probably have plenty of
corn this year, I wonder what the future will be in
cotton, peanuts, truck crops, nuts and fruits.
These same fields now planted almost exclu-
sively to corn supported a variety of crops in
years past, back when there were no shortages.

I wondered where the vendetta. against
Congressman Bob Sikes was coming from and
why. Sikes is well known in this part of the
United States, but he's not what one would call a
national figure such as Church, Proxmire,
Jackson, Baker, etc. Last week, the papers came
out with big stories saying Common Cause is the
organization after Sikes. It seems the liberal
organization wants Sikes out of Congress
because of his influence as a ranking member of
the Appropriations Committee.
It makes sense if you have a program you
are interested in such as Common Cause has, to
get the man controlling the money out of your
way especially if he doesn'tLhave the same
fiftdsophy4n*.regard id money priorities as:you
do. Regardless of what is proven or not proven on
the Congressman, it is an admitted fact that he is
highly interested in expenditures which will
bolster the defense of this nation. Common Cause
is not,.so inclined.
If Sikes has done anything illegal he should
pay the penalty for his mis-deeds. If he is guilty
of merely using good business sense, that is no
crime. If common cause or any other accuser
has any evidence of wrong-doing, let them come
up with it and place it where it will do some good.
This business of trying and convicting of public
servants in the news media has to stop
somewhere. It's already hard to get some good
men to run for office because of the smear
tactics they will face when they aren't warrant-
ed. No man or woman likes to be called a crook
just because he happens to be a good business-
man.
I don't know if Mr. Sikes has done anything
illegal or not. I just believe his accusers should
file specific charges of criminal action if they
can, or shut up.

A reporter from the weekly National
Enquirer made the news this past week for
hauling off Henry Kissinger's trash. When the
law came the reporter said the trash was placed
in a public thoroughfare and had, in effect, been
abandoned.
If that reporter would become interested in
some public figure in New York City he would
get a medal, or at least a commendation of
thanks from Mayor Beame for his penchant of
gathering trash. The trash men don't seem to
want to.

Governor Reubin Askew appointed Joseph
W. Hatchett to the Supreme Court last week and
he is credited with making the statement that
race was a consideration in the appointment.
Hatchett is a black man.
The Governor should be ashamed for letting
such a trivial thing as a man's race influence
him in selecting a man who will mete out the last
word in Florida justice. Had he picked a white
man, taking into consideration his race, he would
be just as wrong. It seems to us a man would be
named to the Supreme Court because he is the
best man for the job.
I'm sure even Judge Hatchett resented that
statement by Askew. He probably felt his
knowledge of the law was what earned him the
selection, not the circumstances which gave him
black skin at birth.

ual Greenery


Lush summer greens for
pots may include ferns, fatsia,
banana, English ivy, elephant
ear and aucuba. Unlike most
of the flowering annuals and
colorful foliage plants, the
greens demand a shaded loca-
tion in the garden.
Even though container
plants are easy to care for,
they do have their demands
for success. The major re-
quirement is that of watering.
The hot days of summer
quickly dry out the container;
therefore, they will need
watering at least three times a
week, if not more often. Use a
slow stream of water so as not
to disturb the soil or shallow
root area. Potting soil should
be loose and well drained to
insure good water penetration
and to prevent soil compac-
tion.
Plant foods in the potted
soils are quickly washed from
the soils with continued water-
ing thus need replacement
with a bi-weekly feeding of a
complete liquid houseplant


fertilizer.
The removal of faded
blooms of flowering container
plants is important, as it is
actually a slight pruning pro-
cess which encourages more
branching and more blooms.
Terminal shoots of young
plants may be pinched back to
form a more bushy and well-
branched plant in the contain-
er even before it starts flower-
ing and during early stages of
growth.
The wide selection of color-
ful summer and fall plants for
pots, and the portable aspect
of pot gardening which allows
for a change or rearrange-
ment 'in placement of pot
groupings, will guarantee fun
and attractiveness in home
landscaping. Pot gardening
also uses a limited amount of
room and a small investment
for such big rewards. The gar-
dener who will plan ahead
may add rich and vivid color
with potted summer and fall
annuals to grace the patio,
poolside, wall or doorstep.

embroidered heavy lace de-
signs completely covering the

She carried a bouquet of pha-
laenopsis orchids, tube roses
and daisy mums. The tradi-
tionally simple double-ring

in -their lapels:
Mrs. McGlamry chose for
her daughter's wedding a
floor-length gown of aqua
chiffon with sheer cape effect
and an orchid corsage. The
fothlier of the groom ,was ,t-
tired in a floor-length, pink
chiffon gown, with an orchid
corsage.

The hand flips a coin. Heads I win.
Tails you win.
The eyes light on the head of a

You can take the word of Mary
Brooks, Director of the U. S. Mint. She's

celebrate our country's 200th birthday.
"I know big decisions, like whether or
not to walk the dog in the rain, rest on
the flip of a coin," Mrs. Brooks says,
"and I want to warn the nation's big
decision makers about the coming big
change in their small change."
In all, the Mint is changing the de-

on each and every coin since the crea-
tion of the U. S. Mint in 1792."
Launching a national coinage was a
big step in the formation of our young
nation. "Now," Mrs. Brooks says, "we
are launching the most significant coin-
age change in the history of the Mint."
The new coin designs are expressions
of the patriotic sentiments of grassroots
America. Under the sponsorship of the
Treasury Department, they were
selected in a national $5,000 award
competition and each of the new de-
signs bears the winner's initials.
The winning design on the back of the
Squprter is the work of Jack L. Ahr of.
Arlington Heights, ill`. Seth' G Hunting-
ton of Minneapolis', Minir.', executed the
reverse on the half dollar. And Dennis
R. Williams, a sculpture student at the

reverse.

Film On

Germany

Available
The Northwest Regional
Library System will have.
available for patrons to bor-
row from Port St. Joe Branch
Library the film "Germany."
It will be available for use by
individuals and groups July
21-23.
Modern Germany, particu-
larly the Germany of city
sights and sounds, of art
shows and rock festivals, car-
nivals and gay night life, is the
subject of this tourist's-eye
view set to an excellent musi-
cal score. From Munich to
Hamburg, tourists to Ger-
many are seen in pursuit of
their own preferences for fun
and pleasure:
Subtly reflected throughout
is the engaging notion that
tourism in Germany today ac-
commodates all ranges of
budget. "Germany" doesn't
neglect the Germany of tradi-
tion nor its historic role as a
favored child of nature.
Scenes of 13th century towns
are matched by views of baro-
que castles *and churches,
sports in the Alps and the
classic trip down the Rhine.
This 30-minute color film
was produced by Lufthansa
German Airlines.


Record

Interest

Earnings

State Treasurer Phil Ashler
reports that his office pro-
duced an all time record high
of $71.6 million in interest
earnings during the year end-
ing June 30, 1975. These earn-
ings, lbe said, resulted from
short term investing of tem-
porarily unneeded cash bal-
ances in the Treasury.
Ashler pointed out that the
entire $71.6 million-goes into
the General Revenue Fund for
use in paying the State's bills,
rather than going into a spe-
cial trust fund for the benefit
of a particular agency or pro-
gram. Approximately three-
fourths of these earnings
came from interest-bearing
deposits in Florida banks,
with the remainder derived
from investments in U. S.
Treasury securities, Ashler
said.


Herring, supervising principal
of Port St. Joe Jr.-Sr. High
School, has been chosen as one,
of five hundred outstanding
American educators to parti-
cipate in a national seminar
this summer. The IDEA Fel-
lows Institutes are designed to
give participants a thorough
grounding in some of the new
and emerging problems and
practices affecting secondary
education.
The theme for the 1975 Fel-
lows Institute is "Educating
for Responsibility." The selec-
tion of this highly significant
topic is based upon recent
studies of school reform which
concluded that schools cannot
be reformed substantially un-
less individual rights, which
students have gained over the
past few years, are balanced
with individual responsibili-


ties to the school and society.
An analysis will be made of
the need for a new and more
vigorous emphasis on moral
and citizenship education, the
responsibilities youth have to
school and society, and the
need for students to assume
greater responsibility for their
own learning.
Sixteen outstanding educa-
tional and political leaders
making presentations will in-
clude such noted individuals
as: Dr. Leon Lessinger, Uni-
versity of South Carolina; Dr.
Edwin Fenton, Harvard Uni-
versity; and Senator Julian
Bond, Georgia.
The IDEA Fellows Insti-
tutes are the oldest, contin-
uing in-service program for
school administrators in the
nation. Over 3,500 elementary
and secondary educators from


Kenneth D. Herring
North America and overseas
have participated in this pro-
gram.

FISHING RODEO
The Fishing Rodeo is now in
progress at the time of this
writing, with the kids bring-
ing in some fine catches. Shell-
crackers and bream seem to
be the most hungry. Over 30

ing the fish" during the first
two days of the rodeo. Even
though the fish were fore-
warned, they have been out-
smarted by the eager fisher-
men. Look for final results in
next weeks's Star.
Youngsters in the North
Port St. Joe area are advised
to go hy the Washington High

'operation. Last year's budget
for the entire county was
$15,000 but was set up as only a
guess by the County Commis-
sion. There was no experience
:to base the operating budget
:.on.
Lamberson pointed out the
-vehicle would require more

coming year, there would be a
^squad room constructed to
!furnish and operate and state
'requirements make it man-
.,datory to provide more basic

provide a good, top quality

ifallow us to provide what is

next Monday night, and ,pre-

Dr. Conger Says


Clinic Offers


Many Services


Dr. Wayne Conger, director
of the Gulf County Guidance
Clinic told the Rotary Club
last Thursday, "You don't
have to be crazy to need our
services."
"As a matter of fact", Dr.
Conger explained, "The most
part of our patients come to us
simply to discuss their prob-
lems, both family and per-
sonal." While the number of
-patients using the Guidance
Clinic has grown over the past
few years, Dr. Conger said
there is still a great number of
people who could use the
service, but feel they should
be able to handle their own
problems. "As a result, many
live in misery", the psycholo-
gist said.
The main source of the
clinic's patients come from
the Gulf County school system
where they treat students who
have personal problems
bothering them which causes
them to have trouble keeping
up with the class, they are


behaviour problems or they
are having trouble under-
standing or getting along with
their fellow students or tea-
chers.
The clinic was established in
1971 with a staff of two people
working part time. The clinic
saw 23 patients that first year.
At present, the clinic is mak-
ing plans to move into its own
building and has a staff of six,
three of whom work on a full
time Basis. The patient load is
now from 600 to 700 patients
per year.
Dr. Conger is active in the
clinic two days a week, Tues-
days and Thursdays and-is
expecting to increase this
amount of time in the local
clinic in the very near future.
The clinic is operated on a
non-profit basis from federal,
state and local money with
fees levied to each patient
based on his ability to pay.
Guest of the club last Thurs-
day was John Lane of Walnut
Creek, California.


Man Charged


Carrying Gun


A Texas truck driver is
being held in the Gulf County
Jail on charges of carrying a
concealed firearm, reports
Gulf County Sheriff Raymond
Lawrence.
The incident began shortly
before noon Thursday when a
report was received that four
men in a car were attempting
to trade marijuana for some
gasoline at local service sta-
tions. A lookout was broadcast
for the vehicle and was shortly
spotted by Gulf County De-
puties and the Florida High-
way Patrol in Highland View.
The vehicle was stopped and
the occupants asked to step
from the car. One of the men
made a motion to reach for his
back pocket was warned by
the deputy to put his hands on
the top of his head. Upon being
searched the subject was
found to have a .22 caliber
pistol in his pocket. After a


search of the vehicle and a
check of their identities the
other three men were re-
leased.
Robert Earl White of Hous-
ton, Texas is being held in lieu
of $750 bond.

ward, Inc., to furnish a con-
tinuous automatic industrial
filter was approved for pur-
chase.
Two bids for a new 5
horsepower water pump was
tabled for further study. Bids
of $9,567 and $8,303.78 were
received for the pump.
The reason for the tabling
/ action was that the pump was
to replace one which was
installed in the spring and the
Commission wanted to see if
something couldn't be done to
require the manufacturer to
make the failing pump oper-
ate as it should. Operator Bob
Simon says the pump is the
one specified by the engineers
but that in his opinion, it is
operating, at too high an rpm
to do the job it is required to
do, which is to run 24 hours a

45 years ago,we were






the kind of banks that






Florida needed.






Westill are.









In 1930, when Florida and the nation were in the midst of a

financial crisis, the new president of the Florida National Bank

of Jacksonville believed that Florida lacked a sufficiently conservative

banking system. In an interview with the press he said:

"Banks are public trusteeships. Their primary object should

be the safe custodianship of the money entrusted to them.... If all

Florida banks had had this in mind there would have been no failures."

That's what our founder, Alfred I. duPont, said 45 years ago.

That's what the Florida National Banks believe today. No other banks

in the billion-dollar class have as high a capital ratio as we do. And

that's just one of the reasons that people call us "The Old Reliable".

Why-Mow the Lawn WheFuneral for
Mother of


You Can Go Fishing ?


Getting hooked on mid-sum-
mer fishing can mean contin-
' ued limits of bass and bream
as well as a chance to get
away from mowing the lawn.
The fish arestill there, they're
hungry and, fo ,matter what
-4 the weather, the chances of a
Florida angler catching fish
exceeds that of fishermen in
any other state.
The Game and Fresh Water
Fish Commission has noticed
many fishermen have a ten-
dehcy to slow up their fishing
activity during summer
months, thinking fish stop bit-
ing in hot weather. Actually,
it's not the fish but the fisher-
men that doesn't like the heat.
.John W. Woods, Commi-
sion fisheries chief, pointed
out the persistent fisherman is
the most successful fisher-
man, and suggested a series of
"things to do" to help insure a
successful, safe and enjoyable
mid-summer fishing trip:
-Hire a guide if you're not
familiar with the water, or
fish with someone who is ac-
quainted with local conditions.
-Talk with local anglers
and get their opinion of when,
where, how and what the fish
are biting.
I-Fish in the early morning
and late evening hours and
keep alert for any sights or
sounds of feeding fish.
S,-Try to locate sharp drop-
Offs, sunken logs, shoals or
grassy areas. Be sure to test
them all.
-Use several types of bait
or lures and check the sto-
mach contents of your fish to
find on what it was feeding.
-Try trolling or fishing in
deep waer of other methods
fail.
I -Observe all boating and
water safety regulations, pro-

tect yourself against sunburn
and keep a sharp eye on local
weather conditions.
When an angler is hooked on
mid-summer fishing, the key


to success may be to fish re-
laxed and with confidence,
and if an angler can stretch
his imagination, he should try
to think like a fish.


Increase In July


Soc. Sec. Checks


A cost-of-living increase in
monthly social security bene-
fits will be included in checks
delivered in July, according to
David P. Robinson, Social
Security Field Representative
for Gulf County.
The increase will amount to
eight per cent for most people
getting social security pay-
ments. It is the first benefit
raise under a ,cost-of-living
provision added to the social
security law in 1972.
"People getting social
security checks don't have to
do anything to get the higher
payments," Robinson said.
"The increase is added auto-
matically."
The increase is based on the
rise in prices from the April-
May-June quarter of 1974 to
the January-February-March
quarter of 1975.
With the cost-of-living in-
crease, average social secur-
ity retirement payments to
retired workers will go from
$184 to $200 a month. Average
social security disability pay-
ments to disabled workers will
go from $207 to $224 a month.
Average social security survi-
vors payments to widowed
mothers with two children in
their care will go from $439 to
$474 a month.
Social security pays month-
ly benefits to almost 31 million
people. The payments are
funded by social security con-
tributions from employees,
employers and self-employed
people.
Employees and employers
contribute 5.85 per cent each
of the first $14,100 of yearly


earnings from jobs covered by
social security. Self-employed
people contribute 7.9 per cent.
"Those figures remain un-
changed," Robinson said.
Under the law, future auto-
matic cost-of-living increases
in social security benefits will
be based on consumer prices
in January-February-March
of one year compared to the
same period in the next year.
The Social Security Admini-
.stration is an agency of the U.
S. Department of Health, Edu-
cation and Welfare.
