On this date.tomorrow, at 8:00 p.m. the Port St. High School Sharks will field their newest version of a football team. According to head coach Wayne Taylor, that new team will be laced with five regular starting veterans from last year. Returning are regulars, Martin Adkison at end, Bruce Nixon at guard, Ed Floore at guard and backs Robert Dickens and Ken Weimorts. The Sharks will begin their season against county rival Wewahitchka here in the local stadium. Wewahitchka made everyone in this area sit up and take notice last week in their jamboree with their scoring ability. Coach Wayne Taylor said, while he thought the Sharks were stronger than last year and had more scoring ability, he had to remember they' failed to score in the Jamboree in Crestview last week. "Defensively we will be rough as usual", Taylor said pointing out, "We hit real well in our practice sessions and we have the manpower" Taylor again recalled the Jamboree when he added, "We didn't hit as good in the Jamboree as we did in practice." Taylor said the team reminds him of what people were saying about the Miami Dolphins before last year, "We're, a - -no-nante' team. We don't have anybody outstanding, but we're strong and we have more depth than last year." Taylor said he suffered no delusions the Sharks would parallel the Dolphins of last year by going undefeated. "'We still have to play too many teams larger than we are in order to schedule games," the veteran coach said. He pointed out many AA schools in this area won't play Port St. Joe and this makes scheduling rough This year's scheduling is a little better, though, with five AA teams on the schedule, Class A Wewahitchka and four Class AAA schools. "We're looking for a winning season," Taylor said "and with our schedule, we believe the fans will see some interesting football." Port St. Joe is again in the West Coast Conference this year along with Crestview, Walton of DeFuniak Springs, Chipley and Marianna. Starting line-up for tomorrow night's game will probably be: Martin Adkison, left end; Steve Davis, left tackle; Bruce Nixon, left guard; Mark Wimberly, center, Ed Floore. right guard; Steve Lawrence, right tackle; Danny Tankersley. right end; Steve Owens, quarterback; Ken Weimorts, run- ning back; Carl Whittle, fullback and Robert Dickens, tailback. SCHEDULE This year's schedule is as follows: September 14, Wewahitchka, Home. September 21, Walton, Home. September 28. Perry, There. October 5, Crawford Mosley, There. October 12, Crestview, There October 19, Chi'pley, There. October 26, Blountstown, Home. November 2, Marianna, Home. November 9, Chattahoochee, There. November 16, Wakulla, Home. Admission at all home games will be $2.00 for adults, $1.00 for students, $10.00 for season reserve tickets and $2:25 for reserve single game tickets. company, Unions Sign Contract County Board Anxious to BPA Opens Calendar Drive The Band Parents Associa- tion is sponsoring their annual Band Calendar Drive. The purpose of the drive will be to fund the Band's activities and to upgrade uniforms. One of the major projects is to purchase a few uniforms due' to the increase in height and. number of the senior high band students. This year, the band director found it very difficult to suit all of the larger boys with uniforms due to the shortage of large uniforms. Another project in mind is to repair, and in many .cases replace, the necessary band instruments, which average in age 20 years old and many are much older. Forms will be passed out to all students to be taken home and if interested, please fill out and have returned to the Band. The prices for the calendars are $2.00 for the family plan which includes birthdays and anniversaries or $1.00 for a calendar and 25 cents for each entry. Cheerleaders. Sponsoring Dance The Port St. Joe Varsity Cheerleaders are sponsoring a dance Friday following the Wewahitchka-Port St. Joe football game, September 14. The dance will be held in the Commons Area of the high school from 10:30 till 1:00. Admission is $1.50 per person. Music will be provid- ed by Morning Glory. A settlement was signed Friday afternoon by three negotiatating unions and the St. Joe Paper Company, agree- ing on a three year pact at the local industry. Unions involved were the United Paperworkers Inter- national Union, the Interna- tional Brotherhood of Elec- trical Workers and the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, all affiliated with AFL-CIO. The new contract with its wages and benefits were all effective August 1. The total amount of' the package increase was in excess of $1.08 with moderni- zation adjustments to be discussed later. Negotiations were conduct- ed under the shadow of the memory of the last negotia- tions of the unions and company which resulted in an eight month strike. Strike talk during negotiations just past had the entire com- munity jittery and anxiously awaiting word that a contract had been signed. Spokesmen for the Unions were Donald Langham, In- ternational Representative, United Paperworkers Inter- national Union, Dothan, Ala- bama; L. M. Fisher, Inter- national Representative, IBEW; Russell Hall, Inter- national Representative, UPIU; H. B. Lister, Interna- tional Representative, UPIU; Charles Davis, President Local 379, UPIU; James Jones, President Local 875, (Continued on Page 8) Approve Property Roll The County Commission wanted to set a date at their regular meeting Tuesday, to hold their Board of Adjust- ment hearing so the property rolls could be accepted, the tax rate finalized and the business of preparing the tax statements for the next fiscal year cranked off. The hear- ing is ordinarily held the first part of September, but usually stirs very little to no interest. This year however, the property valuations have been hiked 18 percent in the words of Assessor Samuel A. Patrick and the Board feels there will be some objections to be heard. The Commission wants to get it over with. Season Tickets On Sale Now Season tickets for all home football games are available at the office of Port St. Joe High School. School officials urge those wanting the tickets to get them as soon as possible and avoid a last minute rush. The tickets are on sale for $10.00, which covers all home games. Regular admission tickets for tomorrow's game will be on sale at all three drug stores in town today and tomorrow. Clerk George Y. Core told the Commission they didn't have a roll to adjust as yet. Attorney Rish then said, "You can't have a hearing on adjustment until you get a' roll to adjust, even if it is time to do it." Clerk Core told the Board Patrick wasn't to blame for the delay. "The state people came in to make the adjustments and they're still making them every day, tho they know it's time to get on with the budget procedure." Core offered the opinion the state people were delaying the completion of their job as long as possible so the roll would have to be accepted as is and possibly adjusted next year for lack of time to do so this year. Attorney Rish then piped up and said, "That's not right. The courts have agreed this is his (Patrick's) duty and if he lets them continue to drag out the deadline it's his fault." Patrick was then called to the Board meeting and told them the assessment roll had already .been sent to the State Comptroller's office for ap- proval, as is the usual procedure, and should be returned this week. Patrick said, "The roll is now complete and has been submitted for approval." The Board then appointed Commissioners EldridFe Mo- (Continued on Page 8) Juveniles Charged With Forgery Sheriff Raymond Lawrence stated that two juveniles have been apprehended in Port St. Joe after cashing checks which were stolen and forged. Lt. David Rogers, who handled the investigation and made the arrests stated that one of the juveniles was found by Division of Youth Services Counselor Jim Boze- man, and the other was caught by one of the bank officials at the Florida First National Bank, while attemp- ting to cash another check. The juveniles had cashed $175.00 worth of checks before being caught. Sheriff Lawrence stated that "we were fortunate, in that we were able to catch the pair the same afternoon the first check was reported. We could have had a deluge of bad checks being passed." Both subjects were referr- ed to the Division of Youth Services for further action. I Fill% Foe Negotiators Sign Contract Documents I II I I Ir n THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla.

Controls Relaxed President Nixon has relaxed the rules and regulations of air pollution controls to give some relief to the pending heating oil crisis this com- ing winter. The ruling has the effect .of allowing the use of certain fuel oils by industry formerly prohibited due to their sulphur content. It may seem sort of far-fetched, Y but we believe the obsession of the -United States for wanting the entire ,nation cleaned up spotless overnight 'is one of the greater contributors to .our run-away inflation and shortages of many items we have always taken I- for granted as being cheap and plen- tiful. Take paper for instance-the "taken-for-granted" item we are clo- -sest too. Newspaper trade journals ,,- (not paper industry controled jour- ?:nals) point out that over 500,000 tons *. of newsprint production has been .- taken off the market, due to the *.-shutdown of several old machines, 'rather than install necessary pollu- tion control devices. The machines - would still produce good newsprint, :.but they were too old to warrant spending the kind of money needed to make them acceptable in pollution control circles. Everyone knows we couldn't continue as we were. The recent cholera outbreak in Italy is a good arguing point for pollution control. One must remember, though, Italy has been densely populated for cen- turies and is just now. getting down to pollution controls. The United States, on the other hand, is sparsely populated compared to some other nations, and, to our credit, we are beginning to worry about pollution before we really have to. The only argument we have is that we have reacted too violently. Let's be a little more slow, but me- thodical in a goal to keep our nation healthful while maintaining, at leats, the status quo., In a nation which is accustomed to life getting better each Year, the drastic shortages-being ex- perienced today may -ause a rise of popular objection to pollution con- trols and do the cause of clean air . and water more harm than a hurry- up program will do good. - Drilling Favored A recent survey by an area daily newspaper showed that the majority of the average citizens in the Bend area favors drilling for oil off the coast in the Gulf of Mexico. A sizeable percentage of those giving their approval stipulated the .drilling should be allowed only if adequate safeguards were employed in the process. The most powerful voice against the drilling has been Congressman Bob Sikes. We can appreciate his reasons for opposing the operation, .'but really wish he was on the other side. Sikes offers the argument the drilling should continue to be allow- ed off the shores of Mississippi and Louisiana and save the off-shore Florida oil until it is needed more. Florida needs this oil and gas now. and so does the nation. Too long Florida has paid the soaring prices of transporting every drop of petroleum products and natural gas we use to our state. And, of course, -the nation itself is in the throes now of an oil shortage and a dangerous balance of payments situation due to a lack of domestic oil. The Arabs are beginning to flex muscles they think they have to put us in a box with their oil supplies- a situation, we know, Mr. Sikes can- not tolerate. We say go ahead with the drill- ing. First-hand reports we have had from Mississippi and Louisiana say it does nothing but good for the state involved. WARNING Property protected by permanent marking... CAN BE TRACED! OPERATION IDENTIFICATION This Label On Your Door Will Warn Thieves Engraving Your NameOn Your Valu- -ables Makes Them Less Attractive To Thieves -The Constitution of the United States of America was adopted September 17, 1787, ratified June 21, 1788 and went into effect March 4, 1789. On January 5, 1956, Senator William F. Knowland intro- duced a Senate Joint Resolu- tion declaring September 17 to 23 of each year as Constitution Week. This week is being pro- moted locally by the St. Andrew Bay chapter, Daugh- ters of the American Revblu- tion. Mrs. Charles Brown of Port St. Joe, is chairman of the American Heritage Com- mittee of the organization. Mrs. Brown asked Mayor Frank Pate to proclaim Constitution Week in Port St. Joe, and he signed the following Proclamation on Monday of this week. ..WHEREAS, September 17, 1973, marks the one hundred eighty-sixth anniversary of the adoption of the Constitu- tion of the United States of America by the Constitu- tional Convention; and WHEREAS, To accord offi- cial ,recognition to tiifs memorable anniversary, and to the patriotic exercise that will form a noteworthy feature of the occasion, seems fitting and proper; and WHEREAS, Public Law No. 915 guarantees the issuing of a proclamation each year by the President of the United States of America designating September 17 through 23 as Constitution Week, NOW, THEREFORE, I Frank Pate, by virtue of the 'authority vested in me as Mayor of the City of Port St. Joe, in the State of Florida, do hereby proclaim the week of September 17 through 23, 1973, as CONSTITUTION WEEK in the City of Port St. Joe, Florida, and urge all our citizens to pay special attention during that week to our Federal Constitution and the advantages of American Citizenship. In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the City of Port St. Joe, Florida to be affixed at this tenth day in September in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and seventy three and the Independence of the United States of America, the one hundred and ninety- seventh. SEAL At Least One We notice in the papers Gover- nor Reubin Askew had the opportun- ity in recent weeks to name a new member to Florida's Department of Pollution Control probably the toughest in the nation. Governor Askew selected a lady from Miami for the job, whose name escapes us at the moment. The thing that hasn't escaped us is the fact she was selected because she was one of the best known conservationists and environmental protectionists in the State of Florida. It may not be so in this case, but each time we see this definition given we picture a little old lady in tennis shoes demanding we wave a wand over all our wastes and make it dis- appear. The point is that as long as humans inhabit this earth, they will have need of its resources to sustain and protect life. In the process they will create waste. The problem is to arrive at a method of using the re- sources to the best advantage and dispose of the wastes in the most ef- fective manner. The arch-protectionists method of protecting by not using can't be accepted by the people. It would seem to have been the better choice if Governor Askew had appointed at least one member to the Department of Pollution Control who is interested in the proper 'USE of our resources and adequate disposal of our wastes. Thus Americans could continue with the good life and the protection of their future. From The Living Bible n "Brothers! Listen! In this man Jesus, there is - forgiveness for your sins! Everyone who trusts in him is freed from all guilt and de- clared righteous-some- thing the Jewish law could never do. Oh, be careful! Don't let the prophets' wprds apply to you. For they said, 'Look and perish, you de- spisers (of the truth), for I am doing some- thing in your day - something that you won't believe when you hear it announced'."

PA:GE TWO The Gulf County Sheriff's Auxiliary is ready to begin "Operation Identification" throughout Gulf County, Cap- tain Emmett Daniell said Monday. For those of you who have yet to receive the pamphlets currently being distributed to all Gulf Countians, "Opera- tion Identification" is a concept designed to make burglary a harder crime to commit, by increasing the possibility of being appre- hended. It is a system whereby the citizen has his drivers' license number, social secur- ity number, or some other positive identifying marks on all valuables like televis- ions, stereo equipment and the like. This posts a warning for all potential burglars, in that if they get caught with property that contains these identifying marks, it will be a positive proof of ownership, and will make it easier to gain convictions when cases go to court. Sgt. Tom Berlinger, project coordinator for the Gover- nor's Help Stop Crime in Gulf County, stated that the program has been instituted in many heavily populated areas of the country and has met with much success. "We feel-that this project will hinder the potential burglar in Gulf County," Sheriff Raymond Lawrence stated, "he will know that it will not be easy to deal in stolen property which is so easy to idefitify later." Those persons interested in having their valuables en- graved free, may do so by calling the Sheriff's office at 227-2311 and making an appointment for any Satur- day in the future. p I was talking to a representative of MK Ranches the other day and he said the farming and cattle operation here in Gulf'County would begin the job of harvesting three-quarters of a million dollars worth of soy beans tomorrow off former Gulf County swamp land. If the weather is good, harvesting was to begin tomorrow on MK's fields West of Wewa- hitchka on State Road 22 and work its way down to the Howard Creek area holdings of the firm. The harvest will continue on until early De- cember. When you consider the soy bean operation is merely a sideline with the operation, one can see MK Ranches is making quite an economic impact on Gulf County, utilizing land that was considered practically worthless for years. In addition to the soy beans, the corn,-,thet winter wheat-and the feed grains, the firm is now:, grazing nearly 2,000 head of cattle in Gulf Coun- ty- and is busily building a breeding herd of its own of nearly a thousand young heifers. As time permits, we plan to get some pictures and do a story or two of this little-known "indus- try" changing the looks of middle and North Gulf County. If you need to find anybody Friday night after about 7:30, you'll probably find them at the High School football stadium. Friday begins the football season here in Port St. Joe, and nearly everybody goes to the football game when the Sharks are playing at home. And, a goodly num- ber follow them to wherever they are playing, as long as its not too far to get back to work by Monday morning. Almost everybody in Port St. Joe is pleased the football season is here again except per- haps, Mrs. Wayne Taylor, Mrs. Buddy Floore, Mrs. Bill Woods, and Mrs. Gerald Lewter. LETTERS To The Editor Dear Wesley, The Port St. Joe Jaycees would like to take this means of recognizing the boys who broke into the Little League Concessions Stand to help themselves to the drinks and candy. We would especially like to recognize the two boys who tore up the front d6or of the stand. We know who they are and actually we were sur- prised at these two boys. Why should they take care of the concession stand? After all, it belongs to them. The Jaycees are only building it. We have spent many long, hard hours to build this stand so they can enjoy it at their ball games. Why they want to destroy something which is for them we'll never know. If the two boys who damaged the door play ball as good as they tear up doors, they will be outstand- ing players. They did a good job and both of them play Little League ball. Hoping this letter will make them stop, think and appreciate what they have, I am very truly yours, ROBERT MONTGOMERY Dear Mr. Ramsey, The purpose of this letter is more or less to just say Hi to the Star and to the people of the Port. I miss the "Home of the Fighting Sharks" and it people very much. So far I have managed to keep in touch with St. Joe through the mail. Being stuck way up here so far from the area that I was born and raised in, one comes to know the true meaning of the value of friendship. Life at the Academy is quite demanding and is a drastic change from the life of a Florida Beach Bum but I guess I had to grow up sometime. I can assure you that Port St. Joe is on the map up here because this is one country boy who has ventured to the city and is proud of his origin. So here is wishing the people of St. Joe a wonderful year. Waiting on Christmas Leave, Midn. Robert L. Creamer, Jr. U.S.N. Sheriff's Department Offers New Identification Service Mayor Pate Proclaims Constitution Week Etaoin Shrdlu by WESLEY R. RAMSEY Lt. Governor Tom Adams was married last week end to his mountain lass of 23 years. By now Adams and his bride are well into their hon- eymoon. I don't know where they have gone or how long they'll stay. But I do know that with Adam's $30,000 plus state salary and his respon- sibility to do nothing will allow them the money and the time to go where they want to and stay as long as they like. You can't blame Adams for this, though. He didn't set the salary, nor did he divest himself of his duties. Adams had his duties removed by Governor Askew for alleged improprieties in of- fice. So who is being punished for these so- called improprieties? Certainly not Tom Adams. There have been rumors that Adams will bounce back next year and run for everything from U. S. Senator to Governor of the State of Florida. The prudent thing for him to do would be to hold on to the gravy train he now has; but, Governor Askew has already announced Adams will not be his running mate next year. One thing is for sure, though. You can look out for old Tom. Any 56-year-old man who has the courage to marry a 23-year-old woman has the determination to try anything. So, don't be surprised at what race Adams happens to turn up in during 1974. * THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. THURSDAY, SEPT. 13, 1973 PAGE THREE Historical Society Story One of Effort The story of the St. Joseph' Historical Soceity is one of dreams of long-standing finally brought to fruition through years of effort, appeal, study, investigation, and hard work. The beautification of the old cemetery, the building of the lovely gazebo, the install- ation of the fence surround- ing these hallowed grounds and the beautiful wrought iron sign above the,, entrance are only a few of the accom- plishments of this small body of dedicated citizens. Last week's issue of The Star carried the story of the "face-lifting" of the Museum in Constitution Park and the' installation of three new display cases. .This is the realization of another dream of long standing. For a number of years the St. Joseph Historical Society has kept in storage many relics and artifacts and other materials of great historical value simply because of the lack of display area. The group has been most anxious to put these articles on display and finally secured state appropriation for the construction of the most needed cases and changes in the museum to accommodate them to the best advantage. At last, they are ready for public view. .Among the things on displayin the new cases are household goods such as bone buttons, a milk glass drawer pull, 19th century table spoons, bottles and, part of a whiskey jug, a, preserve jar, a faceted tumbler, a ladle, bowls and plates and parts of a tureen cover, a small iron pot, a large iron pot and other things. There is also a whiskey jug found in Old St. Joseph and presented to the museum by Tomm Dees. Personal items include a gold ring found in:. this area'by Ted Richards of Highland View. A gold watch case, a U.S. penny of the 19th century used either as a watch fob or on a necklace. Many coins have been donated-an 1840 penny, con- tributed by Mrs. Herman Dean, and 1841 dime, the gift of R. D. Prows, and an 1822 .penny given by Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Harmon of Chicago. United .States coins (cop- per) presented by Jake Belin, an 1835 coin a very large penny given by St. Joseph Historical Society. Other pen- nies were dated 1838 and 1848. One of the new case is used for Spanish artifacts, including a Spanish brick. Mrs, Elizabeth K. Ehrbar, Supervisor of Exhibits of the Department of Natural Resources, who has been doing the work at the Museum, is hoping for more things for display-any relics, papers, maps, pictures, or other items pertaining to the Civil War, .any Spanish or Indian relics relating to this period, arrowheads. or any- thing else of interest. She is especially interested in securing items pertaining to the Signers of the Consti- tution or belonging to them. She is also interested in locating a table dating back to the early 1800's for the display of some most inter- esting articles-a gold ink- well, a scroll and other articles. Mrs. Ehrbar is planning to attend the next meeting of the society. Mrs. R. H. Brinson has been appointed by the St. Joseph Historical Society as representative to the Mus- eum and anyone in this area having any of' these items listed above is asked to call 229-4171. Any article given or loaned to the museum will be used in this museum only. Also on display is a picture of James Bennet Stone, father of T. H. Stone, first citizen of Port St. Joe. Mr. Stone was.,one of.. the. early legislators. FOOTBALL SEASON Ladies Pants Suits 65 Suits $8.49 to $19.49 S Original values $15.00 to $27.00. Sizes 7-241/V2.

O'Shea said the root of the problem goes back in history to the 1600's. At this time in history the British conquered the Irish when lords in the country began to get too strong for British comfort. The lands were owned in large parcels and the owners rich and powerful. The British broke up the large land holdings and passed laws making it illegal for an Irishman to own land and instilled several other harsh laws against the Irish, who were mostly Catholic, while the English were Protestant. The British turn- ed land ownership over to Protestants. This, naturally caused resentment. Early in the 20th century British subjugation was sof- tened and the Irish were then largely a contented people since they could see a gradual bettering of their situation. The people would not marry young and :stirt families because they could see no future in the largely agriculture economy. In the 1950's and 1960's things began to change again. Ireland began to attract new industry with its tax adva- tages and the economy changed to about half and half, agriculture and indus- try. The resulting better wages made the Irish restless again and they wanted more relaxation of the civil rights laws to allow them more of the good things of life including land ownership. The working class was now able to earn money and they wanted something permanent to spend it on. Even so, O'Shea said the troubles were caused by a small minority, the majority seeing continued progress children." THE BOARD ALSO -Agreed to build a short road at Howard's Creek when a right of way was available to enable Gulf Coast Electric to better serve several electric customers. -Instructed Attorney Rish and C. E. Daniell to contact Cook-Whitehead Motor Com- pany to see why a four-wheel drive vehicle, ordered in February, has not been delivered. -Agreed to grade the air strip at Jones Homestead. -Studied a recommenda- tion from the Department of Transportation that several bridges on dirt roads in the County needed repairs. -Received notification from the DOT that speed limits were being changed on U.S. 98.

LAND FILL AREAS Mosquito Control Supervi- sor C. E. Daniell has been telling the Board for some time they are running out of land fill area in which to bury the County's garbage and trash. We need fills now in order to begin preparing them for use", Daniell said. Commissioner Walter Gra- ham decided the Board could catch more flies with sugar than vinegar and offered the suggestion that the County erect appropriate signs at each fill area telling the public who had supplied the land for the fill area:. "After all", Graham said, "We have been in the land fill business a long time and we . haven't had to pay for a foot of land as yet for this purpose.

PLAN ORDINANCE, The County Board has been reluctant in the past to exercise its new powers of passing Ordinances under the new Home Rule law of the State of Florida. A problem at the last meeting of the Board prompted Commissioner Graham to call for an Ordinance against animals which are harmful to persons or property in the county. The Ordinance was prompted by a complaint of a dog in the Highland View area biting children, and there was nothing the County could do about it under their law. The Board instructed At- rorney Rish to prepare a sample for their next regular meeting. Rish said, "I'm ashamed to say the State law provides for the killing of a dog if it bites a sheep, but has no provi- sions for dogs that bite PAGE EIGHT New Coleman gasoline camp stove.

JOE, FLORIDA August 28, 1973 The .Board of County Commissioners met this date in regular session with the following members present: Chairman Lamar Davis, Si- las Player, Eldridge Money, Walter Graham, and T.D! ( Dooc,-Whitfield. The Clerk, Attorney, and Bailiff were also present. The minutes from the meeting of August 14, 1973 were read, approved and adopted. The meeting came to order at 7:30 P.M. The Attorney opened the meeting, with prayer. The Board received em- ployment applications .,from Dorothy Leonard Cain, Susan Elaine White, and Ernest Childs Harden (in person). The Board.d thanked Mr. Harden for his:, personal S appearance. S Mri. Henry Chason ap- peared i before the Board requesting $250.00 to be used in preparing a Gulf County float, anad exhibit for the October 6, 1973 dedication of the new courthouse in Cal. houn, County. The Board felt that since 'Calhoun County was, the mother county of Gulf County, this would be an appropriate advertisement : for the county. Commissioner Graham made and Commis- sioner Money seconded a motion, that $250.00 be provided to6 Mi. Henry Chason to, be, used for Gulf. County's participation in the ' October 6' dedication of the. Calhoun; County courthouse. The:' motion., passed unani,- mously. The Attorney informed the Chairman that the tax-adjust- ment board meeting cannot *be held- until the tax roll. is approved by the Department. of Revenue. The Board discussed the recent revalua- tions' of property in Gulf County and the general consensus was that the people want to know what basis is being used to appraise homes and property in Gulf County. The Clerk read a resolution from Okaloosa County oppos- ing. House Bill 1331, which has allowed the Department .of Revenue to take over the office of the Tax Assess. The Attorney informed the Board that the section of the resolution stating that the Tax Assessor has the author- ity to set County ad valorem- taxes was inaccurate. Com- missioner Graham said he felt the Board should take some actions to see that the. average person is informed about the' methods used by the Department of Revenue in assessing property. Upon motion by Commis- sioner Graham, seconded by Commissioner Whitfield, and unanimous vote, the Board accepted a right-of-way for a ditch easement from Roy Lister and Benny C. Lister in the EV20f the NE4 of Sec. 15, T 4S, R 10W as recorded in 0 R Book 54 page 690. Upon motion by Commis- sioner Graham, seconded by Commissioner Whitfield and unanimous vote the Board agreed to accept a ditch easement from J. F. Fenster- maker, in Meek's Subdivi- sion, as recorded in 0 R Book 54 page 688. .The Clerk informed the Board that it.might hold title to certain property next to Beacon Hill tract in Sec. 31, T 6S, R 11W, now being occupied by, others. This title was discovered during re- search of county owned property by the Clerk's office. The Attorney was instructed to research this title and determine the ownership. The Clerk read a letter from the Health Department requesting replacement of ,the' air, conditioning. system ,at the Health Clinics in Wewahitchka and 'Port St. Joe, to be paid. for from' money in the Health Depart- ment's budget. The Board . felt that proof of the availability of funds' 'should be furnished before the Board considers, bidding on this project; The Board received a statement 'from the. Division of Family Services .in the amount of $152.48 for Nursing Home and In-patient Care for July 1973. The Clerk was instructed to file this bill.' The Board was notified of a meeting on the subject of Emergency Medical Services Legislation at 9:30 A.M. on Thursday, September 6, 1973,. at Bay Memorial Hospitalin Panama City. . The Board received an annual property report from the Division of Forestry for the year'ended June 30, 1973. thM pople r e The Board received a request from .Joe Land to abandon a ditch easement in front of his home. After .discussion. Commissioner Graham moved that the Board advertise to abandon this ditch easement. Commis- sioner Whitfield seconded the motion and it passed unani- mously. The Board was notified of a public meeting on Prepared- ness for Natural Disasters to be held at 10:00 A.M. on September 13, 1973, at the' Conference Room of the Sheraton Motor Inn on Panama City Beach. The Board received a request from the Florida Kidney Foundation to provide funds in the 1973-74 budget for Gulf County residents with end-stage kidney dis- ease. The Board felt it would be unfair to provide funds for one type of disease without including funds to aid persons with all types of sicknesses. Mr. Arthur Atwell appea- red before the Board request- ing pavement of Ward Street in front of his home in St. Joe Beach., The Board agreed to consider this road during the development of next years 5 year program. After discussion, the Road Superintendent wag granted permission to hire an addi-- tional full-time employee.. Commissioner Player asked the Board the status of work on a project involving a contract between the Board and George Armstrong. Commissioner Graham said that as; soon as weather permits that portion of the contract requiring work by the Mosquito Control Depart- ment will be completed according to the contract. The Road Superintendent also agreed to compare the contract with work completed by his Department to insure compliance with the contract. Commissioner Player -said that he 'has received com- plaints from persons in Highland View having been bitten by dogs, and would like to know what the Board could do about it. The Board was advised that according to Chapter 767 F.S., owners of dogs are .responsible for all damage done by their dogs to livestock or to persons. Commissioner Money asRed the Board the status of the White City Fire Depart-: ment Pump. He was in- formed that the- pump was ordered and the company had not furnished a definite delivery date, but expected delivery to take 90-120 days. Commissioner Money added that other items for the truck were being requested by members of the Fire Depart- "ment. The Board instructed Commissioner Money to check the minutes of the Fire Department meetings for authorization for purchase and installation of these items. Commissioner Money said he had also received a request that the ditch be cleaned out on Long Avenue, between 14th and 16th Streets The Road Department Super- intendent was instructed to handle, this matter. Commissioner Player told the Board he had received a letter from Floyd Brewton containing a drawing pin- pointing an area requiring fill dirt on a County easement adjoining his property off Highway 98. The Chairman 'instructed Commissioner - Player to inspect this site and THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla.

Any boat that is mech- anically propelled by a motor in excess of 10 horsepower must be numbered and licensed in the State of Florida. A motor boat is numbered for the same reason your car is numbered, to identify it; and boats are registered and numbered in much the same manner that a car is registered. Just as the weight determines the cost of registering a car, the length and class determines the cost for .registering and licensing a boat. Once your proper forms are obtained from a state agency, fill out and return them with the appropriate fee, a certificate of numbers will be received, and these numbers must be put on the bow of your boat in a certain way. For further information on registering your boat consult your local Tax Collector. The numbers and letter must be permanently attached to the forward part of your boat close PAGE NINE Safe Boating rk^*' j No Accident Florida Department of Natural Resources 3rd in a series to the bow. They must be in block characters, in a color that contrasts with the background,, and not less-than three inches in height. Mount them on both sides of the bow, always reading from your left looking at the appropriate side, to the right with state letters first. Make, sure you leave a space between the first letters and numbers and the last number and letters. Fancy, and-or oddly placed letters pnd numbers will not be accepted by the Florida Marine Patrol, and would just delay you when you are on a very pleasur- able fishing or boating cruise. Always carry your certificate of numbers when you are using your boat, that's the first thing the Florida Marine Patrol will want to see when inspecting your boat. If you sell or transfer your boat, you have to turn in your certificate of numbers, and if the' boat remains in the same state, the same number is issued to the new owner. continued next week - You Are Cordially Invited To Attend LONG AVENUE BAPTIST CHURCH Corner Long Avenue and 16th Street SUNDAY SCHOOL ....................... 9:45 A.M.

BROCK City Auditor and Clerk It 9-13 *Read the Classifieds THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. THURSDAY, SEPT. 13, 1973 State Chamber Executive Urges Off-Shore Drilling be Allowed The Federal' Government's proposal to lease areas in the outer continental shelf off Florida's coast line for oil drilling purposes should be allowed as long as full and complete efforts are made to protect the environment and control any ..development which may come about as a result. This was Florida State Chamber of Commerce Ex-, ecutive Vice *President Ron- ald S. Spencer's advice to a panel of U.S.. Department of Interior officials who con- ducted a hearing into the question lasFC':week in Talla- hassee. "Certainly the importance of protecting Forida's coast- line from environmental damage must be of prime importance but the impact of producing oilwells and sup- port facilities ofithe economy, of Northwest Flbrida cannot be overlooked,"!'Spencer not- ed in his testimony before panel Thrusday He said "Th-e economic impact which-' would come about if oil 'explorations are successful in the offshore areas would create a need for new wharf facilities, tank farms, separators and pos- sibly Florida's first oil refinery. Effects of the new development would stretch from Tampa Bay to Pensa- cola with a good possibility for emphasis in the long depressed Port St. Joe area. "Some residents of Florida will view this prospect with delight while others will be quick to push the alarm button calling forth all forms of no-growth efforts," Spen- cer said. . "But the true question involved in this& proposal is not over the old growth-no growth problem. Rather, I believe it is one of survival.... can Florida remain at the end of the oil pipeline and still survive; 'can our country continue to increase purchas- es of Mideast'oil indefinitely withoutt increasing domestic reserves and still survive? In other words can we afford not to drill for oil offshore and still survive?" he added. In appearing before the federal panel, Spencer pre- sented a report prepared ;by Dr. William Johnson, Energy Advisor to the Chairman of the President's Oil Policy Committee. The report was in answer to ten 'questions about the offshore drilling problem prepared by the State Chamber following a symposium on the gasoline shortage in July. "This report does not hold the production of oil from offshore drilling up as a panacea for the gas and oil shortage. But it does point out the extreme importance it will have in answering the demand for petroleum which is increasing at a rate of four per cent a year in the United States," Spencer said.' Subscribe to The Star McLawhon, Quarles Enrolled at Bryan Dayton, Tenn.--Two Port St. Joe residents have return- ed to Bryan College .for the current school year. They are George McLawhon, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. George B. McLawhon,- 1202 Monument Avenue and William (Biff) Quarles, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Quarles, Jr., 209 9th Street. McLawhon, a returning sophomore, is a graduate of the Port St. Joe High School, where he received awards in band, math, science and won' rotary awards. He served as president of the senior class, the honor society, the execu- tive board and was a representative on the student council. At Bryan he was on the Dean's list and won an award for the best term paper in English in his freshman year. Quarles is a graduate also of the Port St. Joe High School, where he was a member of the honor society, was recognized in Who's Who In High Schools In America, was vice president of the Maranatha Bible Club, and participated in baseball and basketball. Bryan College is a liberal arts undergraduate school with an evangelical Christian commitment which offers bachelor of arts and'bachelor of science degrees. Its graduates are found in most of the states and in more than forty foreign countries as teachers, pastors, mission- aries, business administra- tors and social workers. Now in its forty-fourth year, Bryan is continuing' to expand its facilities for the student body of over 500 on its wooded campus, where a new chapel-auditorium with 1,000 seating capacity is the next major building project. Benefits Are Paid Residents Social security benefits were being paid to. residents of Gulf- County at a rate of $170,000,00 a month at the close of 1972, Robert M. Latta, Social Security Repre- sentative for Gulf County, said today. Of the social security benefif~iries living in Gulf -County, 761 are retired work- 'ers and their dependents. Another 410 are receiving benefits'-as the survivors of workers who have died, and 244 are getting benefits as disabled workers or, their dependents. Latta. pointed out that although most social security beneficiaries are older peo- ple, about one out of every four is under age 60. In Gulf County, 514 people under age 60 are' collecting social security payments father or mother has died or is getting social security disability or retirement benefits. Most of the 38 beneficiaries in Gulf County between 18 and 22 years of age, are getting student's benefits .under a provision in the social secur- ity law permitting the contin- uation of a child's benefits beyond his 18th birthday, and up to age 22, if the child is attending school full time. Also in this 18-22 age group, Latta said, are some other types of beneficiaries, illus- trating the broad family protection that the social security program provides workers of all ages. Some are children of retired, disabled, or deceased workers who became disabled before they reached 22 and who will probably never be able to work and become self-sup- porting. The monthly benefits of these young people, severely handicapped by physical or mental disabili- ties, will continue indefinite- ly. Benefits are also payable to the mother if the disabled son or daughter is in -the mother's care. Latta said that another relatively small but signifi- cant group of youthful social security beneficiaries are those who are receiving benefits as disabled workers. Want To Invest ' In Your Future?
