JOE, FLORIDA THURSDAY, AUGUST 7, 1975 Citizens Air Problems With 15 Cents Per Copy Water As expected, several citi- zens approached the City Commission Tuesday, offer- ing complaints of drainage problems. About a dozen citi- zens told tales of water en- croaching on their. property during the recent heavy rain- fall and threatening to come in homes.

Sikes - Asks for Federal Aid Congressman Bob Sikes has announced from Washington that he is conferring with local, state and federal offi- cials on emergency, programs for prompt repair of roads and bridges destroyed or made impassable by recent heavy rains, land for assistancee for homeowners and farmers who alfo suffered serious damage. The State Division Office of Disaster Preparedness, De- Funiak Springs, is working with the County Commis- sioners in 'preparing damage assessments and in drafting resolutions to the Governor requesting that he ask the federal government for a Dis- 'aster Declaration in order for federal aid: funds to be made available to the counties. those present had water inside their homes and told stories of others who had the same problem but who had not come to the City with their problem. The Board heard expres- sions of concern from Al Smith, Milo Smith, Ed Frank McFarland, Grady O'Brian, J. C. Stoutamire, Mrs. Fred, of the highway where water is backed up over the culvert, unable to get through fast enough. In the photo at right, water is shown gushing through the culvert, but about two feet of Sutton and Mrs. W. I. Carden.. The complaints and reports of damages came from the area in and around Forrest Park from Fifth Street to Tenth Street and from the east side of Garrison Avenue. McFarland said the water. came into a portion of his home and gave reports of the culvert headwall is still showing above the water, indicating that water was piling up on the Port St. Joe side of the culvert faster than it was able to run through.

Chief Justice Adkins is chair- . man of the committee. Core is Clerk of the Circuit Court of Gulf County. His primary interest over the past 20 years has been directed toward improving the image of the court system in the eyes of the public in an economical and efficient manner. Because of his interest and R.H. ELLZEY Board Hikes SchoolLune Prices In Action Tuesda) The Gulf County School :Board met in' a six hour -session Tuesday afternoon and on into the night, with the bulk of the meeting being taken up with examining bids for services for the coming year and personnel matters. Rustlers Active Cattle rustlers are active on Gulf County cattle ranches, according to Sheriff Raymond Lawrence. In the photo above, Sheriff Lawrence and Vann Maraman, foreman of MK Ranches examine what was left of a steer somebody butchered near the ranch. The Sheriff's Department is investigating the theft. In personnel matters, George Cooper, Jr., of Wewa- hitchka asked the Board for some clarification of his posi- tion with the system since Thuro-Clean, Inc., has taken over the custodial duties in the system. Cooper was a main- tenance man and bus driver for the schools in Wewahitch-' ka. His job had been abolished in an economy move prior to the contract with Thuro-Clean and he is presently working with the firm. Cooper's ques- tion was what his position was with the Board if the firm's contract is not re-newed next year. Cooper wanted clarifica- tion of his seven years senior- ity with the system. The Board told Cooper he would be considered for re- employment in the event the contract is not re-newed, just as the other former mainten- ance and custodial personnel. In another personnel mat- ter, James Wood an instructor in the industrial arts program at Port St. Joe High School, asked for employment under continuing contract status. Woods has worked in the system for a year. Gulf County normally doesn't grant a con- tinuing contract to an instruc- tor until he has served in the system for three years. Woods said he had the continuing status in his former service in Wakulla and felt he should be eligible here. The Board decided against offering this type contract to Woods at the present time. The Board decided to in- crease the prices of milk, lunch and breakfast d the coming school year. All inches were hike increasing. K-6 lunches t and 7-12 lunches to 50c adults will pay $1.00 for dinner, an increase of Breakfast, which is offer the Wewahitchka school only, will be increased from 25c to 30c. Students purchasing milk to drink with their meals this coming year will pay 10c for a' half pint carton. Walter Wilder, director of the county recreation depart- ment reported to the Board that in its six' months of operation, the recreation de- partment has provided activi- ties for 1,200 people. "This doesn't include mass activi- ties such as softball, movies, special olympics and related activities", Wilder said. He pointed out the program would be within its annual $26,000 budget when the year ends, "with the help of organi- zations which have cooperated with us during the past few months". He pointed to a need for an area in which to give swimming instruction and ad- ditional softball facilities in Port St. Joe. "At present, there are 18 softball teams trying to use one softball field in Port St. Joe", Wilder said. The School Board was sche- duled to begin work on its new budget in the Tuesday session, but delayed the matter to a special session Thursday, Au- gust 14, due to the length of Tuesday's meeting. public represent the-Clerks, and Re- t rec- orders of the United States on en to a National Committee for drafting the "Records Pre- servation" legislation that was later enacted by each state. He recently served as President of the National As- sociation of County Recorders and Clerks. "' eagerly look forward to working with you and the meinbers of this Bicentennial Committee," Core said, as hle accepted this appointment from Chief Jus- tice Adkins. Ellzey is Superintendent of the Apalachicola Northern Railroad Co. He has been interested in the history of the nation and area for some time and has served as president of the St. Joseph Historical So- ciety as well as being a h long-time member of the or- ganization. A native of St. Augustine, the first settlement in the new America, Ellzey has a natural { interest in the history of the Nation. Adkins wrote both Core and Ellzey, "I am delighted that luring you have accepted the invita- tion to serve as a member of the Supreme Court's Bicenten- d 10c, nial Committee and I am to 45c looking forward to working c. All with you. Your participation Their will enhance the stature of the f 25c. Committee and will help in- red in sure its success."'

To be fair about the situation, we feel no drain system which could be constructed in the Port St. Joe area would have prevented some flooding in such a deluge. We do feel that some attention given to a few key areas might reduce some of the water back-up in future floods. Port St. Joe is in the position "that when the tide is in during such ,downpours we can expect flooding conditions. Our drainage goes into Sthe Bay and when the tide 'is higher Ethan much of the elevation here in .the City, the water will not drain off. ;z It was evident also that several s main drains serving the city had \: bottlenecks which wouldn't allow the water to run off as fast as ,it could, had the drains been adequate..

A few weeks ago, one of the' pipes carrying drainage through Forrest Park collapsed and should be repaired. It was evident'that one drain pipe in the area isn't enough to carry off the water. Too, several existing drainage facilities in the city and area were stopped up. Only periodic inspection will keep this from really becoming a problem in time of excessive rainfall. Since most of our heavy rains occur in the same seasons each year, perhaps a routine inspection just before this season begins would help. At any rate, even though we had more rain than any drain system could handle, we feel some relief can be- given which- will even further, ' mi nimize -flood&i g of ho'm'es and buizdingsin future lownpdours. We hope cessation of the rains doesn't also cause cessation of concern over drainage problems we have in severatl;areas.

Hands Across the Nation A Chicago attorney, Marvin J. Rosenblum, had a unique idea for next July 4: a human chain of millions of Americans holding hands :- from sea to sea. Nothing like this has ever been ; done in this nation before. We have seen the building of a trans-conti- nental railroad being used as a symbol of a united nation; the - crossing of the nation by telegraph wires, then telephone communica- tions, for the sake of drawing the country closer together. -* With the idea being born to cross .the nation with Americans joining. S.hands, we now have our best idea yet of the symbol of a nation pulling together to further the freedom of ,; mankind. -.:: Attorney Rosenblum compares the idea with a Mt. Rushmore, a Great Wall of China, in expressing the concept of hands across the nation. Rosenblum figures it will take about four million persons, or rough- ly two percent of the nation's population, with. 1,320 persons per mile, each standing four feet apart to form the chain., Even though such a project faces formidable obstacles, such as getting around natural barriers such as the Rocky Mountains, deserts and great bodies of water, it can be done. Just getting the people into position could be a monumental organiza- tional problem. There is no doubt that, despite the problems involved, such a human chain would be a sight to see. We feel its impact would be well worth the effort. t . 'f .- / g u.s,PRESS A0>CIATIOM , It's a shame HE doesn't have a Congress to answer TO..."

Keep Kids In School William Smith explained how a program operated by the Gulf County schools keeps kids in school last Thursday. In speaking to the Rotary Club, Smith said approximate- ly 30 kids were kept in school last year, who otherwise might have dropped out. "We teach employable skills, help the kid find a part time job and help him with his studies", Smith said. The instructor. said there are two factors which cause a kid to drop out of school: not able to keep up scholastically and not able to keep up with the other kids financially. "If a kid can meet the normal standard with his grades and feel he can com- pete with the others, he will usually stay in school", Smith said. The speaker asked for the help of the club members in locating jobs for his charges. "We need jobs for boys and girls", he said, pointing out that'his present students had good work records. ETAOIN SHRDLU by WESLEY R. RAMSEY BEN ADAM AND THE ANGEL (A Fable) Once upon a time there was a man named Ben Adam, who, like most members of The Older Steamboats Once Were Busy by CHARLIE WEBB I am indebted to Orsen B. The first to do so was Dr., Spivey, a historian and'news- -Edmund Jones, who-built a paper publisher, for informa- barge of logs hewed on both tion about the first attempts to sides, and with the crude raft navigate the Choctawhatchee made many trips to Milton River in Florida and Ala- from Geneva, Alabama.

By GULF COUNTY CIVIL DEFENSE The best way to get ready for hurricanes is know what they are, the weather conditions associated with them, how often they occur, and the safety precautions to take. To put it simply, they're a lot of wind, waves, and rain and this is probably good enough for most folks who have weathered many a big blow. But, in a hurricane watch or hurricane warning, area, especially in coastal areas, a hurri- cane can be a threat to human life if preparations are not made before one strikes. Thanks to modern detection and tracking devices, the National Weather Service can usually provide plenty of ad- vance warning so residents can batten down their hatches. Hurricanes are born in the Caribbean Sea, the Gulf of Mexico, and the tropical Atlantic Ocean. About two-thirds of them form during August and September but they strike Florida and Gulf States most frequently in September and October. Hurricane season officially begins June 1 and ends November 30. Most tropical storms form in existing disturbances called easterly waves. A squally easterly wave can develop into a storm if conditions are right, and wind velocity increases as it intensifies. The winds spiral inward in a counterclockwise direction toward a relatively calm eye about 5 to 25 miles in diameter. A tropical tempest officially reaches hurricane status when its sustained surface winds are 74 miles an hour or more. Winds of 90 to 100 miles an hour are fairly common in mature hurricanes. It is estimated that sustained winds in a few of the most severe hurricanes have exceeded 200 miles per hour, although such extreme velocities are rare. Generally, heavy rainfall accompanies a hurricane. The average amount varies from 5 to 10 inches, but rates in ex- cess of 20 inches over a 24-hour period have been observed. The "Cedar Key" hurricane of September, 1950, poured nearly 39 inches of rain in a day and night on Yankeetown, a community located on Florida's Gulf Coast. The coastal land fromin Yankeetown to Tampa was flooded-for several weeks. This was the greatest 24-hour rainfall on a small area ever known in the U.S. The most dangerous single element of a hurricane is the accompanying high tides and rough seas as the storm moves across a coastal area. Tides from 3 to 10 feet above normal are common. In some cases, tides may rise even higher and flood low-lying inland areas. The climatologists remind us that hurricanes can cover a large area. Roughly circular in shape, the storms may generate dangerous squalls as much as 500 miles from the center. Winds in these squalls can be very destructive. A hurricane has two types of motions: one is the rapid rotation around the center where strongest winds blow; the other is the forward motion of the entire system, usually at about 12 to 15 miles an hour. The combination of the two will usually produce the strongest winds in the storm's right front quadrant with respect to its direction of motion. The weakest winds are usually found directly opposite this zone in the left rear quadrant. Hurricanes initially move on a west to northwest course from their birth place in the tropical seas north of the equator. In this area of the world, their direction is toward North America. Frequently, they veer northeastward before encountering any land mass. If this curvature is delayed or deflected by a high pressure area, the hurricane may roll inland along the U.S.' eastern seaboard or Gulf Coast. back up.The voyage took ,about four: ;weeks.... It wasn't until several years later that steam -boats began to make trips to Geneva from Milton, Pensacola and Mobile. Some of the early boats were the Julia, the Eight of Janu- ary, the Boston and the Mary Clifton. The Eight of January was sunk about four miles above what is now called Caryville, then called Half-Moon Bluff. The location of the sinking has been referred to as The Eight of January Cut-Off. The owner of the boat at the time of sinking was David H. Keith. The Boston was sunk on a place on the river known as Boston Cove, which is three miles above Cerro Gordo. In the 1880's, five boats are best remembered. The five boats were not on the river at the same time, but one began to run as the others wore out or left the river. The captains of the boats were: CoonS, Kol- metz, Phelps, William Bar- row, and Bob Martin. The boats were: The Sunflower, The Dove, The Little Annie, ,and The Falcon. The Clerk of the Peerless, that' famous steamboat that carried 600 bales of cotton on one trip, was George H. Ste- wart, referred to by old-time rivermen as Amos. Another of the early boats was The Brooklyn, a stern-wheeler, 100 ton boat built in Geneva in 1848, registered in Pensacola. It was on the river until 1854. The G. G. Little was wreck- ed in a storm in New Orleans and her hull has never been found. The boat was built in 1887, registered in Mobile and at one time carried the name Niobrara. The last of the steamboats on the river included the Mary. This boat was one of the last to carry freight and pas- sengers and was owned by the riverboat captain J. D. F. Ray. The Lena C. was another of the last boats to ply -the river and was run by Captain Z. T. Morris, Sr. who spent some 20 years on the Chocta- whatchee and Pea Rivers. Captain Morris died in 1898.

She visit- ed with friends and relatives she hadn't seen in many years. Generation, had little hair and overwhelming guilt feelings. He also had a son named Irwin. Like most members of The Younger Generation, Irwin had lots of hair and an overwhelming contempt for anybody over 30. "Man, what a mess your generation made of things," Irwin was fond of saying. "Because of your bumbling, we face a society that's racist, militaristic, polluted, overpopulated and terrorized by the hydrogen bomb. Thanks a lot." "I guess we're about the worst generation that ever lived," Ben Adam would say, nodding guiltily., "I'm sorry, Irwin." And Irwin would shrug and go off with his friends to smoke pot. Ben Adam couldn't help feeling that he was ,,Jnfor a~ bit of. divine wrath in return for his sins. He was therefore somewhat shaken on-swaken- ing one night to find an Angel at the foot of his bed writing in a golden book. e "I have come, Ben Adam," said the Angel, "to grant you one wish." "Me?" asked Ben Adam with surprise. "Why me?" ."You have been selected by the Heavenly Computer as typical of your generation," said the Angel. "And your generation is to be rewarded for its magnificence." "There must be some mistake," said Ben Adam with a frown. "We've been awful. We created a racist society ." "But mankind has always been racist," interrupted the Angel. "You were the first to admit it and attempt a remedy." "And we militarized our democracy. Why, when I was a boy, we had an army of only 134,000 men." "You built an army of four million men in hopes of bringing freedom and democracy to all the world," said the Angel. "Truly, a noble goal." "Well, maybe," said Ben Adam. "But you can't deny that we polluted the water and the air and scattered garbage far and wide." "That is so," said the Angel. "But the environment is polluted solely because you constructed the most affluent society the world has ever seen." "I guess that's right," said Ben Adam. "Yet look at the population explosion. Famine 'and pestilence thi'eaten mankind." "Only because your generation cured diseases, increased the food supply and thereby lengthened man's life-span," said the Angel. "A tremendous achievement." "And we live in terror of the hydrogen bomb," said Ben Adam gloomily. "What a legacy." "Only because your generation unlocked the secrets of the atom in its search for wisdom," said the Angel. "What a glorious triumph." "You really think so?" said Ben Adam, sitting straighter and smiling tentatively. "Yes," said the Angel, reading from the golden book. "Your motives were excellent, your goals ideal, your energies boundless and your achievements tremendous. In the eons of mankind, the names of your generation lead all the rest. And therefore, Ben Adam, by the authority vested in me, I grant you one wish. What shall it be?" "I wish," sighed Ben Adam, the heavenly chosen representative of The Older Generation, "that you'd have a little talk with Irwin." THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla.

The bill; -Realigns the language of the law. -Authorizes 14 and 15 year olds to operate farm tractors in the course of farm work if they have completed a recog- nized training course 'in trac- tor operation. Such recognized courses are those offered by a recognized agricultural or vocational agency. -Removes provisions which discriminate on the basis of sex for minors who wish to engage in "street trades"-selling newspapers, magazines, periodicals or peanuts, or polishing shoes in a public place or from house to house. The only controlling factor for such minors is hours during which the work may be performed. -Requires that each minor of compulsory school atten- dance age working on a farm during school hours must have a work permit. This provision requires *hat migrants .and crew chiefs get work permits for all workers under 18. -Provides that minors 15 years or younger may work until nine p.m. and 14 and 15 yearl olds may work until 11 p.m. on nights 'preceding a non-school day. Minors 15 years or younger are still re.- stricted to a 40-hour, six-day week. Sixteen and 17 year olds may work until 11 p.m. and one a.m. on nights preceding a non-school day. -Lifts restrictions on work certificates and hours for married minors 16 and 17 years old. However, proof of marriage is required. -The bill passed the House by a 110-2 margin and in the Senate 35-1.

Under Age Child May be Allowed to Enter 1st Grade During the month of July, .the Gulf County Volunteer Ambulance Squad El (the Port St. Joe Unit) answered.a total of 21 emergency calls and treated a total of 18 patients. The 21 ambulance runs were as follows: Three dry runs, one indus- trial accident, two violence related, two automobile acci- dents, three motorcycle acci- dents, three heart related, six miscellaneous and one OB delivery (the squad's first). The ambulance logged a total of 1,073 miles for. the month of July with an on-the- road time of 32 hours. The members of the Volunteer Squad donated to the county a total of 2,232 man-hours for the month, excluding meetings and training classes. In order to better serve the people of Gulf County, the Squad began another 71 hour Emergency Medical Techno- logy course on August 4, which will continue through October 10, 1975. During this time, squad members will be trained in rendering advanced first aid at the scene of an emergency as well as efficient transportation of patients to a medical center. Upon comple- tion of the course and passing the state board examination, these persons will join the 11 Certified EMT's now donating their time and skills to fellow citizens of Gulf County. If you should need the ser- vices of the squad at any time, 24 hours a day, phone the Gulf County Sheriff's Department at 227-2311 Mrs. Frances Martin of Sul-' phur Springs, Texas, died in an accident :Tuesday night. Mrs. Martin, a former resi- dent of Port St. Joe, was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Weeks of Port St. Joe. Survivors include her hus- band, George Martin; two daughters, Merita and Toni Martin; and a son, Paul Mar- tin. Funeral services will. be held Saturday in Blountstown with Martin Funeral Home in charge. Parents of a child who be- comes six years old between the dates of January 2 and June 30 of the 1975-1976 school year may enter the child in the first grade at the beginning of the term if the child can -demonstrate his readiness for a first grade program. Under most circumstances Florida Statutes require regu- lar school attendance between ages of 7 and 16; permitted at age six. In addition Section 232.01 (1) (g) establishes early ,entrance to first grade as fol- lows: "Any child who will attain the age. of six years subse- quent to January 1st and during the school fiscal year of any school year or at any time during the first month of the school year to the first grade in accordance with uniform Scriteria,as established by the jStlae Board of Education '8ch'ol districts are required to follow the Florida Depart- ment of Education procedure for evaluating the readiness of children whose parents re- quest early admittance for them. Steps to accomplish *actual enrollment include fil- ing with the school principal .completed application and medical forms-these are pre- requisites to preliminary screening; the school admini- sters a standardized test on which the child must make an acceptable score, as well as school evaluations of the child in the areas of physical deve- iopment, social maturation and perceptual-motor coordo- nation. Parents whose children qualify according to age and who want their children to go through the evaluation proce- dure should see an elementary -school principal immediately for application forms and other details. DOE guidelines state, "All early admissions evaluations shall occur within one month prior to the beginning of the school year for the students and the 20th day of the school iiIli 117'5 VALUE SPORT KIT Handsome zipper tote con- tains two high-quality 1-qt. vacuum bottles plus roomy sandwich/food box with self-hinged cover. 209/10 Hurlbut Supply 306 Reid Ave. year for students." For Gulf, this means between August 1 and. September 24. However, because of the time it takes to administer the individual readiness evaluations to chil- dren who pass the preliminary screening measure and since all evaluations must be com- pleted by the 20th day of the school year, applications must be filed with the school princi- pals on or before September 8. To help parents make the best decision for. their chil- dren, the Department of Edu- cation points out that early entrance is intended only for those children who can show that they are ready for first grade and should not be pre- vented from doing so just because they are "too young." However, DOE feels that most children entering first grade should be six years old on or before January 1 of the school year-a requirement that has been in effect for many years. Further, it suggests that for the child who will be six after January 1, a kindergarten program will foster his educa- tional progress and address his learning needs more ap- propriately than placement in a program for which he is not sufficiently mature.

Know Your Onions Onioh may hold the distinction of being the only vegetable capable of making anyone cry at any time despite their mood. But there are a few other onion "personality traits" grandma may have never revealed. For instance, did you know that tin objects can be polished to a bright sparkle by rubbing with a raw onion? Or that brass ornaments will glow when polished with a soft cloth dipped in the juice of a boiled onion? Whether or not you try these tips, there are some important onion-facts-you should know: Pungency of flavor is not entirely related to variety; growing locations and soils make'the difference. Dry storage is desirable since humidity encourages root growth and decay. Don t store onions near potatoes. The onions will absorb moisture from the potatoes. Nutrition facts: One raw onion 2 1." in diameter provides 50 calories, and acts as a good detergent food for dental health. One cup of cooked onions equals approximately one-fourth of the daily recommended allowance of Vitamin C. 'We Owe You More Than Just Food 'SUPER-RIGHT' HEAVY WESTERN ..-.

St. Joe BOWLING Lanes Now Under New Management East Highway 98 Two archery hunts and one muzzle gun hunt for white-tail- ed deer, wild pigs, raccoon and opossum are scheduled on St. Vincent Island during the 1975 .fall hunting season. According to information re- leased from the St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge headquarters in Apalachicola, the dates set are October 30 - November 2 and November 20 - 23 for.the two bow hunts, and December 11-14 for the muzzle loading rifle hunt. Buck or doe white-tailed deer may be taken during both bow hunts; only legal bucks will be permitted on the muzzle gun hunt. The white- tailed deer limit will be one per day and two per season. There will be no limit on wild pigs, raccoons and opossums. Guns permitted for the De- cember hunt are muzzle load- ing percussion cap or flint lock rifles with single or double rifled barrels of a minimum .40 caliber and maximum .58 caliber *ith a minimum bar- rel length of 20 inches. A hunting permit issued by St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge will be required to participate in these hunts. Permits for the two archery hunts will be issued on a first- come, first-served basis to each hunter as he checks-in on the Island. No application is needed to obtain an archery permit this year. A maximum of 650 archers will be allowed to hunt on the Island at any one time. Three hundred per- mits for the primitive gun hunt will be issued those appli- cants whose names are drawn at a public drawing to be held at the Apalachicola office on November 5. The designated permit application form must be received before Noyember 5 to apply for the 1975 primi- tive gun hunt on St. Vincent Island. No charge is made for the permits issued by the Re- fuge. The permit system is in- tended to provide high quality controlled hunts and avoid ex- cessive overcrowding. The applicable Florida Game and Fresh Water Fish- ing Commission hunting li- cense is required for all hunts at St. Vincent National Wild- life Refuge. Also, a Florida Archery Season Permit is re- quired for the October 30- November 2 bow hunt. St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge consists primarily of a 12,358 acre island near Apa- lachicola in Franklin County. Hunting will be permitted on the entire island during the 1975 hunts. No bridge or cause- way connects St. Vincent Is- land with the mainland. No public transportation facilities are available. Participants must arrange for or provide. their own transportation across, coastal water to the Island. This service may be obtained from some of the Indian Pass or Apalachicola commercial boat operators. Two rough, unimproved campsites, one on either end of the Island, have been desig- nated for those sportsmen who wish to remain on the Island. For those not planning to camp on the Island, motel and restaurant facilities are avail- able in Port St. Joe, Apalachi- cola, East Point and Carra- belle. Leaflets providing informa- tion, hunting regulations and a letter-size map of St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge and the primitive gun application form may be obtained by writing the Refuge Manager, St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge, P. 0.

VV- -.-- ----Wednesday Morn ing Is .ecoras show that there are fewer traffic accidents be- tween the hours of four and six a.m. on Wednesday than at any other time said the Flor- ida Highway Patrol this week. Colonel Eldrige Beach, Pat- rol director said, "While some people are unable to plan their starting time for trips due to other circumstances, knowing the most dangerous hours and days may help drivers plan their driving schedules for maximum safety." - The records also show that the four to six p.m. period has the greatest number of traffic crashes, with Friday leading the way. However, the hours between seven and nine p.m. are the most deadly. With less than half as many traffic crashes than the four to six p.m. period, there were al- most one-third more people killed from seven to nine p.m. He continued, "While Sun- day has the least number of traffic crashes by far, the number of people killed is almost as many as Friday and Saturday. The. periods bet- ween 10 p.m. and three a.m. o on Friday and Saturday nights have more fatal crashes than any other nights. "Even if you could plan your driving time," concluded Col. Beach, "drive extra carefully late in the afternoon and es- pecially around midnight on' Friday and Saturdays if you want to continue to Arrive Alive."

The meeting, did then ad- journ. 45 years ago, we were the kind of banks that Florida needed. We still are. In 193Q. 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".
