The block in question lies between Third and ,Second Street and Long and Williams Avenues. It appears as if proposed development of a new subdivi- sion in the vicinity of the St. Joseph Bay Country Club is a serious venture. On June 4'the developers asked the City to consider serving the subdivi- sion with water and sewer in its present expansion plans, at the subdi Vision's expense. The developers said they wanted services for 150 homes by the end of 1976 and up to 2,000 by the end of 1980. Tuesday night, further com- munication from the develop- ers asked for permission to confer with the City's engine- ers, Smith and Gillespie about the project. Commissioner Benny Rob- erts said, "It's alright with me, if the developers pay the engineers. for their time and not expect the City to pay these costs".

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 City of Port St. Joe Police Depart-7- ment, the Gulf County Health .Department, and the Gulf County' Sheriff's Department urges all residents to bring their pets for this important vaccination. - Andy Anderson turns ambulance files over to Dick Lamberson Lamberson Appointed Ambiilance Squad Chief Dick Lamberson became the second squad chief of the' Port St. Joe' unit of the 'Gulf County Ambulance Service this past week. Lamberson succeeds H. L. "Andy" An-' derson, the first squad chief of the volunteer, service, who tendered his resignation due to health reasons. I Under Anderson's guidance, the service was organized in September of last. year and has since received basic and advanced first aid training and graduated a class of: 18 Emergency Medical Techni- cians. Lamberson was chosen 'by the squad to serve as squad chief until he could be con- firmed by .the committee which 'guides the county ser- vice. The committee affirmed Lamberson's appointment in a meeting Tuesday night.

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. Outboards Found Ir i I bUUYUL 4 PAGE TWO THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla.

Star photo 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. -Tallahassee Democrat mail order catalog type of knowledge to one more color- ful and action oriented.

Green 'N Grassy By, Mike Beaudoin 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?" . If the diagnosis of doctors is accurate, the British National :Health Service may be close to collapse for lack of money. :'What happens to the British health system should be watched carefully by the EUnited States because this :system is the type some peo- ple want us to embrace. : The National Health Service 3ias been described at one time 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- blems of the health system is 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 all people. There is a limit to what it can do. That is an important princi- ple that America must keep in mind as attempts are mode to push into a system of govern- Etaoin Shrdlu 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. -f ".

Captain and Mrs. John Thomas Park 'A.1I 1 Have the Time e Preparations 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. Mrs. IKoberts.',,. Hosts Group I The July meeting of Mission Group I of the First United Methodist Church met in the home of Mrs. Floyd Roberts July 15 at 9:30 a.m. Refresh- ments were served to the eight members.

Heads I win. Tails you win. The eyes light on the head of a colonial drummer. Did you win or lose the toss? You won! That head is really a tail. You can take the word of Mary Brooks, Director of the U. S. Mint. She's our nation's coinmaker and says the colonial drummer was chosen in a national design competition to appear on the back of the new Bicentennial quarter. George Washington, she in- sists, still heads the coin over a new Sdatef-1776-1976-and it was all done to 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- signs on the backs of three coins in honor of the Bicentennial.

By July 7, 1975, your friendly neigh- borhood bank should have begun re- ceiving the first of the circulating Bicentennial coins to be released- the Kennedy-Independence Hall half dollar. Before the end of the year, the Fedeal Reserve System will have had the time to supply the nation's comn_, mercial banks with the. newly- rede-" sighed quarter and dollar. "To me, 'these coins-like all our coins-are symbols of our nation's 200 years of freedom," Mrs. Brooks says.

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 Columba College of Art and Design, Columbus, Ohio, designed the dollar 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.

There was no experience :to base the operating budget :.on. Lamberson pointed out the -vehicle would require more ?maintenance and supplies this coming year, there would be a ^squad room constructed to !furnish and operate and state 'requirements make it man- .,datory to provide more basic .services than are now offered. iLamberson said, "If we can't provide a good, top quality emergency service, we want 2:no part of it. This budget will ifallow us to provide what is necessaryy" The committee agreed to look over Lamberson's sug- gested budget, go over it again next Monday night, and ,pre- msent the suggestion to the County Commission next Tuesday night.

THURSDAY, JULY 17, 1975 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.

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 day, seven days a week. The "present pump is a 25 horse machine and the bids called for. a 50 horse model.

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".

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.

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. R.H.
