In action at the meeting of the County Commission Tuesday, the County Com- mission decided to take the State to court over a threat to withhold funds the county would normally receive from. state sources. The State has set a deadline after which they will withhold the funds if the county doesn't pay some $20,000.00 the State Comptrol- .'..,-4. - ,.:,.-'.x :-, . RICK TAYLOR Advances In PPK Contest M Rick .Taylor, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Taylor was the, winner in his age group in the Punt, Pass and Kick District' competiti n held in Marianna last Saturday. Rick wil go to Jacksonville Saturday 'to compete in the next step toward the national competition finals which will be held inmthe Super Bowl. The contest for youths is sponsored' annually by the Ford Motor Company, ler says the county owes as its part of Medicade and Medicare of indigent patients in nursing homes throughout the state. For the past three years the state has been billing the county regularly each month for the indigent payments. The patients are. in hospitals and nursing homes through- out the state and have given Gulf County as their home. The County Commission has just as regularly refused to pay the bills since they haven't authorized the ex- penditures nor are they asked if it's agreeable with them if the patients be hospitalized. This is the defense the county will use in their suit. In a letter Tuesday from Larry Levy, General Counsel in the Comptroller's office, the county was notified the state funds will be withheld until the county "debt" is paid if payment or arrange- ments have not been made by Mrs. Gay Is Taken By Death Mrs. Callie Gay, aged 69, passed away Wednesday at Municipal Hospital following a lengthy illness. Mrs. Gay operated Gay's Fish Market in Port St. Joe with her husband, Les Gay, who proceeded her in death in 1960. / She was a resident of Highland View. Survivors include three brothers: Lonnie Gay of Oak Grove,-aliff -Gay' of--Alford:; and Luke Gay of Atlanta, Ga. Funeral services for Mrs. Gay were held Friday at 3:00 p.m. from the Oak Grove Assembly of God Church with the Rev. Clyde Bowers officiating, assisted by Rev. Jean Shoots. Interment fol- lowed in the family plot of Holly Hill Cemetery. Comforter Funeral Home of Port St. Joe was in charge of all funeral arrangements. Multi-Million Land Sa e Recorded in Gu If A multi-million dollar land sale was consummated in Gulf County last -week according to records in the office of Clerk of the Court, George'Y. Core. The ,sale was for nearly 1,000 acres of land in the Pig Bayou area of St. Joseph's Peninsula. The property was sold by Partnership Invest- ments of Florida, of Bloom- ington,, Minn., to Northwest Florida Realty, Inc., of Ft. Walton Beach. The Fort Walton Beach concern appeared before Gulf County Commission in July asking about restrictions for building condominiums. What their actual plans for the land are, nobody knows. the county by October 16. The "arrangements" language of the letter indicates the county evidently can make a partial payment if they wish to. Clerk George Core remind- ed the Board the money for such expenditure is not in the county budget. "If the state withholds funds", Core said, "Our budget will just be short in the funds they take funds from." The county has never' budgeted the item in question. Attorney William J. Rish said the easiest method might be to pay the partial payments. "After all", Rish said, "You are now earning interest on this amount of money. If they withhold funds, you will have to cash in interest-bearing certifi- cates to finance your opera- tions. Forcing the lump sum collection will cos'Tthe county interest money." Commissioner Walter Gra- ham said, "It may be easier this way, but I'm going to be stubborn and make them come get it. We didn't ask for this program and they didn't ask us if we wanted it." Clerk Core reminded the Board the Welfare Depart- ment had advised the county some time back to put their indigent medical money into the commodity program and the Welfare Department would take care of these medical expenses. Commissioner Graham thenmade the motion to file the injunction against the state and received a unani- mous vote of approval for his motion.

An added attraction will be presented tonight and Friday night with the officially set the county millage for the coming fiscal year Tuesday at 7.75 mills. This is a reduction of the previous estimate of 8.7 mills which was 'advertised with the budget for the coming . year. The change was brought about after the State Revenue Office finally ac- cepted Gulf's property valua- (Continued On Page 6) Injuction Filed To Stop Beach Building A suit has been filed in the Circuit Court here in Port St. Joe by Mr. and Mrs. Frank Lull of Beacon Hill to stop construction of a house on the Gulf side of. Highway 98 at Beacon Hill. The house was the topic of discussion at the last meeting of the Board of Commission- ers. The Lull's, along with other residents of the area, contended the house was be- ing built on a dedicated alley. The County agreed at the time to .have a survey made of dedicated property in the area to see if the building was on public property. Also at the earlier meeting, the Board was to contact the owner of the new house, Lavernon Lanier of Wewa- hitchka, and ask him to halt construction until the matter could be settled. Chairman Lamar Davis said he con- tacted Lanier and he had agreed to stop. Later, Lanier contacted Davis and advised him his attorney and en- gineer had assured him he was on his property and had advised him to continue with his building. Lanier said he would follow this course and move the house if it was found to be on public property. The Lulls then filed their suit on October 2, seeking an injunction against the build- ing. A hearing on the injunction has not been set as yet. Jr'. A-'- 1~. 47~ Members of the Machinists Local and SJPC representatives sign contract. From left are: Tom S. Coldewey, R. E. DeLoach, J. W.

This is the way we fail to. clean up, repair or Generally refurbish our surrundings. They have, grown moldy, dingy and in dis-repair gradually and we didn't notice it. Like the other day for instance. A fellow came up to us and said, "you know, the sidewalks in this town are in bad shape. Also, there are several places where sidewalks are needed". i ; i these strolls more pleasant and less dangerous. The need for sidewalks in cer- tain areas in the City is obvious., The high cost of sidewalks is also obvious so it's understandable if the9i4y just doesn't run and build sidewalks here and there just because they're need- ed. While the need may not be as obvious in the area of repairs to ex- isting sidewalks, it is just as real. Many of the sidewalks on both sides of Reid Avenue are in bad shape. .We knew there were places Many of those in the residential areas. "where sidewalks are needed.

Paper Shortage Cause As the ecology movement's 1973 scenario draws toward an end, we are faced with an outrageous decision: 'Do we want perfectly clean water and iair or our favorite newspaper? In their relentless pursuit of zero pollu- .tion, environmentalists are actually forcing this nation into a paper short- age. The paper industry (or many .other industries) cannot afford to 'buy and maintain all the costly pollu- tion abatement controls demanded of it and still operate its mills and build the new ones necessary to meet the 'insatiable cry for its products.

Preserving the environment is a highly-commendable goal whether there is a future at all for our des- cendants depends upon how we treat the Earth today. But when idedica- tion turns into destruction and our Constitutional right to a free and di- versified press suffers, it is time to examine our path to environmental protection and see if it is truly the proper path.

We also requested assistance from the Board to help aid in the music education and comfort of our band students. It was not our intention to ask that anything be taken away from any school organization and be given to us, only our fair share and to be treated equal for we are a 1'.l1y credited program of the Port St. Joe High School. Without proper instrumenta- tion and music education, we cannot produce a superior band. Our high school band travels a lot to promote the City of Port St. Joe, and we want the city to be as proud of them as the Band Parents Association is, in spite of the conditions under which they perform. The Band students put in a lot of extra time on the practice field and for this they receive one hard earned credit per year and very little consideration. Due to this the morale of the band is very low at this time. On behalf of the Associa- tion. our thanks to the City of Port St. Joe and to the School Board for the help and support in past years. We strongly urge the School Board to vote to give the Port St. Joe High School Band the help they need to have the music education they want and deserve. Many thanks to you, Wes for your support for how many years 20? Sincerely, Virginia Arnold, President Band Parents Association October 8, 1973 To,.The Edi.tpr;...,, r .- 1 . We are highly disturbed over the speed limit on Highway 98 in Mexico Beach being increased from 45 miles per hour to 65 miles per hour. This increase of speed is causing a very dangerous situation to the many school children and to the older citizens who cross the state highway to go to the beaches. We contacted the State Department of Transporta- tion in Chipley and were assured by Mr. Fuller who stated that an inspector would be sent to Mexico Beach the first part of the week of Oct. 7, 1973, to invest- igate the traffic and speed limit and if required were assured the speed limit would be adjusted.

"Traffic congestion before and after football games can be expected. Motorists should not be impatient in such heavy traffic and should assist their fellow drivers whenever possible," said Colonel Eldrige Beach, direc- tor of the Patrol. Motorists were reminded by Beach that driving is not a competitive sport but that courtesy and fair 'play are essential to safety on high- ways. Every year in Florida 20,000 to 30,000 traffic acci- dents are caused by following too closely. Rear end colli- sions are common in football traffic and drivers are cautioned to be patient and allow extra room between cars. At 60 miles per hour, it takes about 366 feet to stop under ordinary circum- stances. "Although driving is not a sport, there is a winning side to driving. Winning is staying alive," concluded Beach.

JOE. FLORIDA 32456 a E Here it is World Series time again. But no- tice how the World Series attitude has changed. I remember, not tood many years ago, the World Series almost invariably meant radios were put in places 'tey w"re never seen or tol- erated before. Later, television firms made the series a vehicle for selling sets to watch the ser- ies on. One could walk up Reid Avenue, ducking into the various business places along the way and not miss a play of the Series, since a TV set could be found in, almost all the stores, tuned to the World Series. Things came to a standstill each day when the series game came on, so peo- ple could watch the game uninterrupted. That isn't so any more. There are still many baseball fans, and many of these',go out of their way to watch the Series while they are on. But the wholesale interest seems to have gone. Of course, there's so much football on the airwaves now ... and of course it's football sea- son and weather. It's only natural the Series should take a second rate position in favor of the h in-season sport. But it's sad. The Series have been a national institution for so long. Baseball is such a good game. It's painful to see interest wane. I'm wondering what effect it will have and a- what sport of interest will come along when the of football fad begins to pass away. - ii- , rt- Almost the same thing can be said for dove a shooting. The firstday of the season came Sat- !d urday with hardly a murmur. Just a few years ago, one could see small groups of men gathering a at all the gathering spots in town, getting ready ill to take off for Calhoun or Jackson county on a r- dove shoot. If a person didn't particularly know m where to go he had but to get to the gathering ie spots before the group left and tag along.. ie I don't know whether lack of interest; chang- t- ing interests or lack of places to go in these times s has served to change the dove hunting habits of ee the South Gulf County male. v- Every year more and more lands have been denied use by the hunter. More and 'more lands are being planted in crops or put to use not .con- ducive to dove. Then, too, in the past *ew ydars, the bird population just hasn't been there. Peo- ple apparently just got tired of riding a l a l 'miles r i tb-hoot birds, only to hav.t e a'1tds not show up. )t All of these things have probably helped to reduce the numbers of the avid dove hunter. It's a shame too. It was a good life. ble * aber- r, on Did you ever buy something and not get what fiber, you thought was satisfactory service out of the Iters article? Did you ever have repairs made and feel the you were charged too much, or maybe the job On [1 be wasn't satisfactory and you were 'unable to get all it done over again? any Most everyone has met with these problems On at one time or another and since almost everyone s of is basically honest, most consumers have honestly fire wondered whether or not they were justified in ghth making a complaint. And if you want to make a sa- complaint, who do you make it to in order to the get action? here ring The Chamber of Commerce is attempting to t is take care of that last question by creating a first and cousin to the famous better business bureau The mit- Chamber is in the process of setting up a means of receiving such complaints, passing the'com- plaint on to the merchant or service in question for settlement. If, after a certain time, no at- a tempt at reconcilement is made, a second notice we will be sent. If this also fails to initiate settle- ks ment of the dispute, the problem will be placed es. before an unbiased committee for judgment as )n nt- to whether the complaint is legitimate or not. If no the complaint is legitimate, the offender will be ith asked to correct the problem. If he makes:Uno is effort, his name will be placed on a warning list w. for others in the area, who call the Chamber ask- lill ing where to get certain goods or serviced. Pros- ks pective customers will be warned of thli offend- do ing firm's attitude toward satisfactory service for ese a customer.

The powerful Sharks could have made the score even more lop-sided if they had wanted, but chose instead to let next year's team play a good portion of the game to gain experience. The Sharks ran what is now their favorite play in starting the game. For the third week in a row the Sharks forced a fumble on the kick-off and converted for a score. Last Friday night, Mark Wimberly grabbed the -ball for the Sharks after the Dolphins were jarred loose from the kick-off. Starting from the Dolphin's 33, the Sharks used five plays before quarterback Steve Owens snaked over from eleven yards out to put the Sharks on the board with only a minute and a half gone in the game. Jim Moore kicked his first of four extra points for the night. The Sharks defense let the Dolphins smell of the ball a little bit before they forced a punt. Russell Chason: fielded the punt and brought, the crowd to its feet with a weaving 20 yard return to the 50 yard line. Little Carl' Whittle surprised everyone by scoot- ing up the middle at the end of the drive, with .a 33 yard run for the Sharks' second TD. Again, Jim Moore kicked the extra point. The Sharks got their third scoring .opportunity in the first period when Eddie Rich chased down Dolphin quarterback Sammy Rauker- son on his own 18 yard line and forced a fumble. The period ended, however, be- fore the Sharks could score. Port St. Joe started the second period on the eight yard line and Robert Dickens carried the ball oivr the goal in two carries tV give the Sharks a 20-0 lead; With just a little over four minutes left in the second . ' I~~.aukersoQnanloadb.a, pas-s,butJim Moore stepped"' in and made the interception on the St. Joe 40 and scooted down the sideline- for the score. The Sharks went in for their half time rest with a 26-0 lead. The Sharks took 'the second half kick on their own 34 and marched down the field in eight plays before Dickens bulled over from the one. The drive was sparked by a sneak by quarterback Steve Owens which went for 30 yards. Moore's kick.. -was good, giving the Sharks a 33-0 lead. Dexter Andergon then took over Mosley's quarterback spot and moved his team down field with passes to Mike Durden to 'the Shark four. But the Shark defense of Mark Wimberly, Eddie Rich, Bruce Nixon, Ronnie Kirkland, Bonnie Garland, Ed Floore and :Martin Adki- soni came back in the game and slammed the door in the Dolphin's face.' The Shark defenders had; been resting after holding the Dolphins for practically no gain the first half. - The Dolphins':were again getting into scoring position with their paying attack against the Shark reserves when Mike Rich stopped the TH TR otS.Je l.TURDY C.1,17 AEFV lins - drive with an interception. The Dolphins made their lone touchdown with 2:23 left in the fourth period. Ander-, son threw to Durden from the 18, but Durden had gone out " of the end zone to make the catch. A Shark penalty then' put the Dolphins on the six yard line. The Dolphins fullback Comer scored on the first play by sliding around end. The Shark first string then went into the ball game to get one last score as the game was coming to an end. Robert Dickens took the ball on the 15 and ran all the way back to- the Dolphin 41. A pass to Martin Adkison was good for,. 28 more yards. A second pass to Adkison put the Sharks on the Dolphin one with 21 seconds left. Robert Dickest. then scooted over with 14 seconds left. Moore kicked his extra point and the Sharks had won 40-6.

Like those handed Moses for the Jews, Beaudoin had ten commandments designed to guide a man toward a satisfying and successful relationship with 'his fellow man. The commandments in- cluded the admonishment- ments to: like people, be willing to share knowledge with others, adopt the "we" attitude, learn from mis- takes, be decisive, have confidence, de6ilip a sense of proportion, hEa an ability to. compromise;,"develop a sense of humor and be an optomist. In developing his theme, Beaudoin said probably the most serious deterrent to success is having no interest in people. Another is' the habit many have of just "busy being busy". The speaker said our efforts should amount to something when they are expended. The primary ingredient to success is getting things done, Beaudoin said. "The best way to accomplish this goal is to be more interested in seeing something accom- plished than in receiving credit for its accomplish- ment."

The millage assessment means property owners living in a fire control district in the county will pay on a rate of 7.45 mills while those living outside the districts will pay on a basis of 7.15 mills. 7.35 RIVER ELECTRICITY Alfred Whitfield, manager of the Gulf Coast Electric Coop asked the Board what their decision was on secur- ing a road right of way to the Brothers River so they could use the right of way to run their power lines to service the many camps on the River. It was pointed out the camps had received electric service for seven years but -this was interrupted recently :by logging operations in the vicinity of their lines. The electric lines were removed for the work because of the k ;^*^ danger involved. Now REA says it wants to put the lines back, but unless they can get some sort of permanent utility space .in which .to locate their lines they will not. "It is expensive to keep moving these lines," Whit- field said. The Board had agreed to inspect the site in question but all members had not done so. They suggested REA seek a utility easement from the land owners and said they would help in this endeavor. In the meanwhile, they will continue to consider the road possibility. OTHER BUSINESS The Board requested Health Department Doctor W. E. Weathington to contact them about a proposal to put new air conditioners in the" County's two Health Depart- ment buildings. In an earlier meeting, the Board was given the impression the Health Department had the money to pay for the new units. Now this matter is unclear and they want to be certain where the financing will come from before calling for bids. Port St. Joe City Water Superintendent G. L. Scott notified the Board they Aptitude Tests Set On Tuesday, October 23, sophomores, juniors and some seniors at Port St. Joe High School will have the opportunity to join over one million other students around the world in taking the Preliminary Scholastic Apti- tude Test-National; Merit.

This is nearly 10 percent of the entire City consumption. Needless to say the Commis- sion was disturbed over this news and instructed their people to begin looking for the cause of the excessive use immediately. The Board approved a bill of $2,316.25 for overhauling the electrical system of the ol the electrical system of the old Courthouse in Wewa- hitchka.

Star Photo Representatives Robinson and Tolton File Resolution Against Offshore Drilling Two state representatives from Northwest Florida today filed a proposed House Resolution urging the Depart- ment of Interior to withhold leasing some 880,000 acres of land under the Gulf of Mexico for oil drilling. Citing the threat to Flor- ida's military and tourism economy as well as to the environment, State Repre- sentatives, Grover Robinson (D-Pensacola) and Jere Tol- ton (D-Fort Walton Beach) submitted the resolution to House Environmental Protec- tion Committee Chairman, Guy Spicola (D-Tampa) for a showdown vote at the com- mittee's regularly scheduled October 30 meeting in Talla- hassee. If passed by the House committee, the resolution will be immediately forwarded to Florida's congressional dele- gation which has already taken a strong stand against 15 ft. Fishmaster, 50 hp.

Robinson explained that state opposition to the federal offshore oil wells was prompted by a heretofore secret congressional report released three weeks ago stating that the offshore wells would interfere with the operations of five (5) Florida military bases located along the Gulf Coast. The 63 page congressional report said that the proposed drilling would probably force. at least partial closing of military operations at Eglin Air Force Base near Fort Walton Beach, Tyndall AFB in Panama City, McDill AFB in Tampa, the. Navy Coastal Systems Laboratory in Panama City and the Naval Air Station in Pensa- cola.

With this resolution by the Environmental Protection Committee, Robinson and Tolton hope to lend further credibility to Florida's con- gressional delegation's fight against the offshore wells. "Is it worth laying off some of the, more than 37,000 employees at Pensacola NAS and Eglin AFB alone, in addition to threatening our tourist industry and our ecology in order to tap a maximum of 4-6 months supply of oil today?", Robin- son asked.

"The threats to our economy and environment don't merit drilling for the oil at this time off of Florida's coast. Tolton added, "That oil will still be there five years from now. In the meantime, we should tap all on-shore oil potentials and fund techno- logy to remove the sulfur content from coal- and to harness solar energy." Tolton pointed out that the resolution also called for a delay in leasing until a more detailed Federal Environ- ment Impact Study can be made of the effect of the offshore oil operations. "If we are only buying 4-6 months time in the oil crisis with these leases, then the risk is not worth it," Tolton concluded.

Crusade music leader, John McKay and a portion of the James Robison evangelistic Mrs. Morrison are shown abqve as they crusade. Mrs. Morrison has made many participated in a television taping session of records and tapes on her own "Gosple Queen" Singing At Crusade For Christ Forth Worth's Francine Morrison, hailed as the successor to the late Mahalia Jackson, has been invited to appear with the James Robison Crusade for Christ here in Port St. Joe Wednes- day, Thursday, and Friday of this week. Mrs. Morrison has appeared with numerous James Robison crusades throughout the nation and has achieved national recognition for her gospel singing. When planners for the 93rd annual National Baptist Con- vention began looking for a soloist to fill the place of the late Mahalia Jackson in Los Angeles Convention Center, they turned to Fort Worth's Francine Morrison- a young gospel singer who refuses to be sidetracked by blues or soul rock but can bring down a house with a spiritual or a happy gospel shout, It was Mahalia Jackson's accompanist, Gwendolyn Cooper Lightner, who had met Mrs. Morrisori 10 years Cylinder Head Reclamation Service * Valve grinding * Valve seal, guide and seat installation * Disassembly * Testing * Cleaning * Head resurfacing * High Performance Services Precision Work Fast Delivery ST. JOE AUTO._PARTS 201 LONG AVENUE Port St. Joe, Florida - Phone 227-2141 ago in Los Angeles, who "found" Mrs. Morrison and asked her to be soloist with the 1,000 voice choir in the Los Angeles center. Francine sang, "God Bless America,". as Fort Worth audiences have heard her sing.it, with love, fervor and a set of vocal chords that can shake an audience to its emotional shoe soles. Then she sang "He Looked Beyond My Faults and Saw My Knees," the kind of song to which Francine can given an impact that has listeners caught up in her exuberance and charm. Music reviewers gave her high points as the new "queen of gospel sing- ers." So far, Francine's career has been "uncornered" in a spectacular fashion. She was the first soloist to sing in the Houston Astrodome, the first black woman to open with song the Texas State Demo- cratic Convention (by invita- tion of then-governor John B. Connally) and was named to the Women's Division of the Forth Worth Chamber 'of Commerce. She has sung with gospel groups as far away as Moscow and Jerusalem. Mrs. Morrison has taped a new album, "Standing on the Promises," to be released shortly by Bob Cline of Rainbow Sounds, Inc. Of her last album, "Sweet, Sweet Sound," Francine says, "The musicians who accom- panied me were secular, but something happened during the recording. We all said a little prayer at the start. Afterward, they told me that they felt moved by this recording session \as never before." Those who have worked with her say Francine has a way with a lyric that makes people want to laugh and shout. She can trill a pianissimo like an opera diva or wail like a clarinet-but her message is the sweetness and exultance of faith. For this reason, she shuns night club engagements and rock sessions. "When I'm standing up there, I'm not just trying to entertain people," she says. "I feel that the Lord gave me a voice for a purpose." Wife of Fort Worth busi- nessman Jury Morrison, Francine has a teenage daughter, Wilda, a senior at Paschal High and president of Future Homemakers of America, who was named "most talented" by FHA at their last state convention in San Antonio. Whether she is singing "Gloria in Excelsis" with a massed choir or "Go Down, Moses" or one of her happy hand-clapping gospel shouts, Francine has people "with her." Hendrix Attends Assembly DENVER, COLO. Dr. Joseph P. Hendrix, of Port 'St. Joe attended the Annual Scientific Assembly of the American Academy .of Fam- ily Physicians in Denver. The medical meeting began Octo- ber. 1 and ran through October 4. More than 3,500 family doctors participated in this once-a-year continuing education conclave. The local physician, who is a member of the Academy, heard fifteen nationally- known speakers discuss up- to-the-minute health care topics. He also had the opportunity to attend his choice of clinical seminars on 36 different topics and visit 115 scientific and 250 techni- cal exhibits. Subjects covered in this four-day scientific session are of immediate interest to family doctors both in their everyday practices and in their continual endeavors to keep abreast of the latest advances in medicine. This year, topics include current Chinese medical procedures, drug therapy, shock, genetic counseling, diabetes, the coronary prone patient and breast surgery. The Academy, headquar- tered in Kansas City, Mo., is the nation's second largest medical association and the only national medical organi- zation that requires its more than 34,000 members to keep "going back to school." All AAFP members must com- plete 150 hours of continuing education every three years. A balance with any Florida National Bank will weigh in your favor. FLORIDA FIRST NATIONAL BANK AT PORT ST.

THURSDAY, OCT. 11, 1973 PAGE NINE Rish Bill Aids Pulp Haulers Florida's truck-tractor license plate law, sponsored by State Representative Billy Joe Rish has resulted in big savings for those vehicles hauling forest products exclu- sively within a 150 mile radius of their home base. The new state law is based on gross weight, and, without the amendment from Rish, would have made the aver- age pulpwood producer who owns a tractor-trailer pay approximately $450.00 for a tag. Representative Rish amended the new law to exempt all haulers of forest products and placed this special category under the lowest license fee-about $240.00. Thus, the new tags, rather than increasing more than 100 percent in some cases, actually remain at about the same level. Representative Rish, who fought for the amendment on the House floor, stated, "This new law, as amended, will help the people who need it most-the little man with one or two small rigs who hauls timber within 150 miles of where he lives." "Sometimes," Rish contin- ued, "we pay too much attention to big businesses and corporations. This provi- sion gives the small business- man a break he really deserves, and needs." Florida Forestry Associa- tion Executive Vice President William Carroll Lamb, com- menting on the new law, added that "Members of the forest products industry, particularly the small opera- tors in the woods whose role is so critical in getting the raw material to the manufac- turing site, owe a debt of gratitude to Representative Rish for his leadership and interest in forestry." Persons with questions concerning the new law can CARD OF THANKS I want to take this oppor- tunity to thank everyone for their many deeds, thoughts, flowers, ,and prayers during my recent illness and stay in the Municipal Hospital and Tallahassee Memorial Hospi- tal.
