Signs

Wrong

Name

A Highland View man was
arrested Tuesday in Ana-
hauc, Texas by local officers
and charged with four counts
of passing forged checks,
according to Gulf County
Sheriff Raymond Lawrence.
Sgt. Tom Berlinger and
Deputy Richard Lancaster
extradited Donall Holland,
age 22, after he was released
from jail in Texas charged in
a similar offense.
Holland is alleged to have*
-passed four checks on his
step-father's account and
cashed them at local busi-
nesses about a month ago,
before fleeing local officials
and being arrested in Texas.
Holland is presently being
held .in the Gulf County jail
under $4,008 bond.


Heads Up

Children's

Campaign

Mrs. Tom (Dawne) Ford of
Port St. Joe has been
selected to serve as Chair-
man of the 1973 Retarded
Children's Friendship Cam-
paign in Gulf County. The
Friendship Campaign, spon-
sored.by the Florida Associa-
tion for Retarded Children,
will be conducted Tuesday,
November 27, from 5:30 to
7:30 p.m.
"A Friendship Campaign,"
states Dawne, "is a tremen-
dously effective way of
having entire communities
focus their attention on the
problem of mental retarda-
tion. Just recently the Special
Olympics for retarded child-
ren were held and created a
great deal of interest in
retardation in our towns
throughout this area. We
need to keep that interest
high, and I feel a Friendship
Campaign is the most effec-
tive way to do this. The
money raised will be used to
develop programs and ser-
vices in Gulf County.
"Gulf County participated
in the Friendship Campaign
for the first time last year
under the direction of Mrs.
Beth Lawrence and approxi-
mately $1,190.00 was raised.
Only 15 percent of these
monies were retained for use
in Gulf County. This year "all
of the monies received will be

Developer Tell s of Plans


For Peninsula Building


Harlan G., Allen, Jr., President of
Realtract, Inc., ,of Atlanta, Georgia,
Georgia, told The Star on Monday of this
week his firm has purchased and has plans
to develop a portion of St. Joseph Peninsula:'
Allen, who was in Port St. Joe Monday
to meet with several local people concerning
his plans, also used the visit to assure local
citizens his interests in the Peninsula 'was
one of preserving as much as possible of the
natural beauty of the area, while
constructing condominiums, individual
dwellings and recreational facilities such as
a golf course, swimming pools and other
game courts.
"We do not plan to construct a concrete
jungle", Allen said. "We will leave the sand
dunes as they are as nearly as possible and


will strive to be good stewards of the
beaches area."
Allen gave no date for his development
to begin, but he said it would' be within the
next few months. "We plan to announce our
intentions and outline our plans to the public
before we get started so they will know what
we plan to do in the area," Allen said.
The developer stressed the fact
everyone in his firm came from small.towns
and were interested in preserving the small
town atmosphere in their development.
"We're selling a return to the open spaces,"
he said, "and cannot afford to make our
area crowded."
The firm owns approximately 1,000
acres on St. Joseph Peninsula in the Pig
Bayou area.


Energy Crisis Strikes


Oil Shortage Knocks



Out Christmas Lights


"When The Lights Go On Again
All Over the World" was a hit tune
back during the days of World War
II and may become a familiar pop
tune again in the very near future
with the request made by Florida
Power Corporation at the City
Commission meeting Tuesday
night. The firm made the request of
the City that it not burn Christmas
lights this year. The firm said it is
making the same request of all
cities on its lines.
The utility made the request
due to the fuel shortage for
generating power. Shut-off of oil
deliveries to the U.S. by the Arab
nations has created a shortage of
fuel and diesel oils.
The request came at the time
when the City had its crews busily
engaged in putting up Christmas
decorations all over the City in
anticipation of turning them on the
week end of Thanksgiving.'
Florida Power didn't -say it
would refuse to furnish power for


the lights, but they requested the
City to voluntarily refrain from
using the energy. "We can
generate .the power", Florida
Power said, "We have the
facilities, but we don't know if we
will have the oil."
The Commission was reluctant
to abandon what has become a
tradition in. Port St. Joe and
decided not to leave the lights ,off
entirely. After consideration of the
request by Florida Power, the
Board agreed to turn the lights on
during the week before Christmas,
and leave them, off the remainder
of the time they ordinarily burn.
In the meantime, City crews
are continuing with their project of
putting the lights and decorations
up. Most of the City's lights are
included in decorative pieces, so
some of the color and beauty of
Christmas will still be seen in Port
St. Joe, even if the lights will
remain off most of the month of
December.

Three Arrested on


Charge of Vandalism


The Gulf County Sheriff's
Office has arrested three
juvenile minales, and charged
them with malicious damage
to private property, accord-
ing to Sheriff Raymond
Lawrence.
In an investigation conduct-
ed by Lt. David Rogers, Sgt.
Tom Berlinger and Jim
Buchanan of the Sheriff's
Office, it was found that
some heavy equipment which.
was left on, the road between
White City and Overstreet
had been vandalized. Hyd-
raulic lines were cut, lights
were broken out, and dirt
was placed in the mechanism
to such an extent, that the


expense to the owners in
repairs and "down time" will
exceed $10,000.
The equipment was owned
by St. Joe Paper Company
and two other firms from
outside the county.
"In dollars and cents, this
has been the most expensive
vandalism our office has
investigated this year",
Sheriff Lawrence stated. "We
were most fortunate in being
able to apprehend the van-
dals."
The three boys were
referred to the Division of
Youth Services for court
action.


Want Bar Opening Hours Extended


City bar room operators
petitioned the City Commis-
sion Tuesday night to allow
them the option of staying
open until 1: a.m. at night
rather than being forced by
law to close at midnight.
Charles Lowry, acting as
spokesman for the group, told
the Commission, "It's very,
unlikely any bar will be open
at night beyond 12:00 as a
regular thing. There just


aren't any people out and
about in Port St. Joe at that
' time of night arid we usually
close around 11:30."
Lowery went on to explain
the request was being made
mainly for the times there
are ships docked in the
harbor. "These men have
nowhere else to go and,
frankly, it would mean a
little extra business for us to
help with rising expenses",


Lowry said.
Also present and making
the request were Lowry and
Harry Lowry operators of
St. Joe Bar; E. M. Walker,
operator of Little Red's Bar
and Nathan Peters, operator
of the Cozy Bar.
It was pointed out by the
operators that county law
allows bars operating outside
the city to stay open to 1:00
a.m.


The City Commission was
reluctant to give a definite
answer on the request at
Tuesday's meeting, prefering
to wait until the next meeting
on November 20 in order to
give time for any objections
to be voiced if there were
any. Mayor Frank Pate told
the delegation they would
have their answer at that
meeting.
The change in operating


hours would necessitate
changing a city ordinance.
Lowry also asked that the
City pass an ordinance or
amend the present liquor
ordinance making it illegal to
purchase and open a bottle of
liquor inside a bar.
The Board instructed At-
torney William J. Rish to
look into the legality of such
a law.


Deputy David Rogers checks for fingerprints.


Health Department Sees A

Need for Plant Expansion


It has been so long since
the City has received any-
thing but glowing reports
.from the Division of Health,
that it was with alarm the
Board received word last
week that the water treat-
ment plant is becoming
inadequate for the City's
needs.
Several years ago this
situation was becoming a
possibility and the City then
constructed a 100,000 gallon
storage tank to allow the


treatment plant to run 24
hours a day and fill up
storage during the night for
use during the day when the
demand was heavy.
The State has told the City
expansion of the treatment
facilities are now needed and
suggests engineering on the
project get underway in the
very near future-within six
months.
The report also suggested
some changes in the filter
beds of the existing facilities.


Sharks Muzzle Dogs

game against the Marianna Bulldogs. (Star Photo)


The Port St. Joe Sharks
rolled up 198 yards rushing
and 131 through the air last
Friday night as they chalked
up victory number spven
against the Marianna Bull-
dogs. The Sharks have only
one loss for the year.
against only one loss for the-
season.
The win dropped the
Sharks from number six in
the state to number 10.
The Shark offense racked
up 17 first downs as they
scored in every period except
the third.
The Bulldogs took the
opening kick-off, but couldn't
move against the home town
team. The Sharks took the
Dogs punt on the 41 yard line
and in six plays Robert
Dickens was galloping across
the goal line from 13 yards


out. Jim Moore then kicked
the first of three extra points
to put the Sharks ahead, 7-0
with 6:43 left in the first
stanza.
But the Sharks didn't have
the Dogs tied to a post yet.
Quarterback Larry Hill un-
loaded a 32 yard pass to
Larry Basford who suddenly
found themselves on the
Shark 31 yard line with a first
down. A 15 yard pass to
Willie Mack and the Dogs
were close enough to smell
the goal line. Six plays
later, Mack plunged over
from the four then kicked the
extra point to tie the score.
But the score didn't remain
tied long. The Sharks took the
Dog kick on their own 32 and
after three runs of six, five
and 11 yards by Robert
Dickens and a 41 yard pass


from Steve Owens to Martin
Adkison, the Sharks had
scored again in the opening
seconds of the second quar-
ter. Jim Moore kicked the
extra point and the Sharks
had their winning points on
the board.
The Sharks second TD in
the second period started
after two big defensive plays
gave them the possession of
the football.
The Bulldogs' Larry Hill
had faded back to pass when
Bruce Nixon decked him for
an eight yard loss. The Dogs
were set back four more
yards and they then had to go
for the long pass. John
Shackleford picked it off and
the Sharks were pointed for
me goal line once again.

Hunters Foul Own Nest


b Ab usin.


E. ...Saturday marks the .beginning
of hunting season in this part of
Florida. I- ; -


Just prior to the beginning of
the current season, c.-one paper
company with large holdings in the
favorite hunting grounds in Gulf
County announced they would
require a permit for hunters to use
their lands. The permits cost
money. Another land owner, also a
paper company said hunters could
,_,use, their unposted lands for
,, hunting. There is a hitch to the
-,offer, however. The firm, St. Joe
Paper Company said in their
,,statement allowing use of their
.land, "no new requirements or
restrictions will be imposed this
season, as long as protection of the
company's lands and timber are
nhsprvpd. .


Property


the proviso placed in SJPC's offer'
of use of their land.
Hunters are a peculiar breed.
Some of them have no thought of
the fact they are using property
owned by other people when they
hunt. They are also prone to be
some of the most damaging
creatures on earth (some of them).
We hear stories of livestock shot,
fences torn down, forest fires set,
etc., all by careless or not caring
hunters.
A few years back, dove hunters
of this area had a ready-made field
provided for them north of Port St.
Joe with the huge farming
operations going on there, but some
foolish hunters ruined the oppor-
tunity for everyone. Reports are
that some hunters hunted the grey
birds over cultivated fields in

and how it is taking hunting lands is no more dove hunting on these
away from use of the sportsman. fields without special permits.
There isn't really aniy complaints What we're trying to6say is,
valid; though, since th- land is hunters, have a little respect when
being, used by' its owriner. Regard- you venture forth Saturda#Fso more

As we see it, the Rutssians and
Chinese are probably most happy
over our internal problems here in,
the United States today.
: True, they don't like Richard
Nixon and his declining popularity
id threatening disgrace probably
Stakes them as happy as anyone..
:. As pleased as the Communists
must be over the situation, they are
probably more pleased about the
inevitable long-range results fromny
the situation.
Richard Nixon was the best
hope the: conservatives of this
nation have had in quite some time.
While the true conservative would


;ts Happy


have preferred someone a little
more to their line of thinking, at
least President Nixon ,started a
swing away from the ,impaging
socialistic trend being let in our
nation.
With the disgrace of President
Nixon, it will probably be next to'
impossible to get a conservative-
maybe even a moderate-elected to
the Presidency for some 'time to
come. This means a steady diet of
liberals and their philosophy of
providing utopia for everyone in
the world. :
The Communists should be
happy about this.

TALLAHASSEE (AFNS) -
Last week we noted that no
completely foolproof ventilation
system has yet been developed.
However, some form of
adequate ventilation is required
by law, and we explained a type
of ventilation that is most
frequently used. Another type
used, and principally on larger
boats is the wind activated
Rotary Exhaust Head. This
type exhaust system is similar
to the other system except the
rotary is stationary on top of the
cabin. The intake cowl on the
side of the boat forces air into
the lower compartments of the
boat, and the rotary exhaust
head draws it out. Again this
system depends on forward
motion of the boat or a good
breeze blowing from bow to
stern. All flexible pipes should
be, at least two inches in
diameter. Special vapor and

explosion-proof electric fans
can also be used. If you choose a
power blower, or decide to
switch to a power blower make
sure you select a spark-proof
electric switch to turn it on.

A well ventilated boat is a
safer boat, because gasoline
vapor is heavier than air and it
will flow into pockets in the
bilge of your boat. This vapor
must be drawn out or forced
out, for a very small amount of
gasoline vapor when ignited by
a spark can cause a deadly ex-
plosion. Always operate your
blowers, open engine hatches or
boxes, before starting an in-
board or stern driven engine.
Make sure to check all gasoline
connections frequently, since
vibration caused by the engine
or rough weather can loosen
connections. The entire fuel
system must be free from leaks:


PAGEE TWO


Timber Owners Should


Study Purchase Offers


A recent study by the
Florida Division of Forestry
showed that most people who
have timber to sell do so
almost on the spur of the
moment-usually consulting

only one buyer, and seldom
setting "Do's" and don'tt"
as to the manner of cutting.
Most every timber land
owner desires to receive full
value for his timber. And
most every landowner under-
stands that such value has to
do with immediate return
from harvest and sale of
forest material as well as
repeated returns on the long
term... .later harvests, ,*.
County foresters w iththe
"b)ivision of Forestry suggest
a series of guidelines useful
to the landowner and tree
farmer:
Determine need for cutting.
As with other agricultural
crops your timber should be
harvested at the right time.
Cutting too soon will reduce
future income and cutting too
late may result in an
unnecessary growth loss.
Designate area of timber
sale. Maps or aerial photos
are good tools for helping the
seller and buyer to clearly
understand the boundaries


and limitations of the area
involved in the timber sale. If
an individual selection of
trees is to -be made, then the
individual trees should be
clearly marked for cutting.
All boundaries should be
clear.
Know what you have to
sell. The seller should have a
good idea of what he has to
sell. Study the local timber
market. Tree size and quality
are of prime consideration
also at -selling time. Will a
little delay in cutting mean
greatly increased returns?
Know the standards of
measurement -. -
Select type of sae'. Timber
is, generally sold in two wars-
(1) lump sum of (2Y. product
scale of the buyer. In lump
sum sale the seller should get
sealed bids and the seller
should receive a cash settle-
ment in advance on measure-
ment after the trees have
been cut for a specific
product.
Use a contract. A written
contract should be used in
any type of timber sale. A
contract will protect both
buyer and seller.
Making the sale. Secure a
list of buyers of the various


products for which you have
a sale. Notify buyers of the
availability of your timber
and solicit bids. Make the
timber sale area available to
the inspection of all prospec-
tive buyers.



From The Living Bible
So Eliphaz the Temanite,
and Bildad the Shuhite,
and Zophar the Naama-
thite did as the Lord com-
manded. them, and the
Lord accepted Job's pray-
et on their behalf. Tht,
when Job prayed for his
friends, the Lord restored
his wealth and happiness!
In fact, the Lord gave him
twice as much as before!
Then all of his brothers,
sisters, and former friends
arrived and feasted with
him in his home, consoling
him for all his sorrow, and
comforting him because of
all the trials the Lord had
brought upon him. And
each of them brought him
a gift of money.

Green 'N Grassy


A Research Report


By Mike Beaudoin
An article in The Tallahassee
Democrat quotes a woman junior
executive who says, in effect, that
many working women use sex as a
means to promotions and pay
raises.
A few days later
several local people,
men and women, are
quoted as disagreeing
with the woman junior
executive
It was a ridiculous ,
thought to begin with.
Imagine women using k >
their sex appeal, what- L
ever that is, to influ-
ence a man's thinking?
To further refute the unfounded
charges about women, the Green
and Grassy Research Foundation
began a crash survey of major
offices in the Capital City which
completely disapproved the theory.
In one state office there were
12 women who appeared to be
doing essentially the same thing.
Eleven of the 12 were what would
be classified as "attractive" while
the 12th bore a close resemblance
(face and figure) to Phyllis Diller.
Upon checking salaries it was
found that Phyllis was the lowest
paid of the bunch and her desk,
stuck away in a corner, was the
fartherest from the water cooler.
Oddly, she seemed to be typing
much faster, and:. more accurately
than the other 11, but the personnel
director assured us that all the
women were rated strictly on


ability.
In another office it was found
that many of the girls frequently
come in late in the morning and or
leave for home early in the
afternoon without penalty. Upon
checking their looks, it was found
that any one of them could pass for
a movie starlet.
Then there was the wife of a
corporation executive who married
her husband while working as his
secretary. She is quick to stress,
however, that "we would probably
have met anyway. We were
destined for one another."
In a survey of women who held
the highest paying and most
prestigious jobs, it was found that:
99 percent of them had on more
than one occasion had lunch with
the boss; 97 percent had worked
after 5. p.m. on "several"
-occasions; 98 percent did personal
things for the boss, like balancing
his bank statement and the like.
Of course, all of them denied
anything more than a working
relationship. They even took their
steno pads with them to lunch. A
few complained of having to hire
baby sitters (at their own expense)
to make bothersome out-of-town
trips with their bosses.
But, don't fret ladies, or Ms's
or whatever you are called this
week, this trumped up charge isn't
anything new. It's been around for
awhile, in fact the first chauvinistic
male to make that charge was
some guy named Adam!

Accidents

High In

Darkness

TALLAHASSEE-With the
time having changed October
28 from Daylight Saving time i
back to Eastern Standard.
automobile crashes are likely .
to increase said the Florida
Highway Patrol today.
Patrol Director- Colonel
Eldrige 'Beach said, "The
period of time from 5:00 p.m.
to 8:00 p.m. has almost twice
as mahnyrashes as the 5:00
a.m. to 8:00 a.m. period. The
accident rate is higher during
darkness hours and with the
time changing, there will be
more hours of darkness when
traffic is heavy."
Beach suggested clean
headlights and windshields to
improve night driving as
dirty windshields can distort
motorists' vision, which is
already reduced at night.
Dirty headlights cut down on
night vision and it is also
harder for approaching
motorists and pedestrians to
see the car. Taillights should
also be kept clean.
Colonel Beach concluded by
saying, "Since your home-
ward trip may be made
during darkness and you will
possibly be tired and irrita-
ble, make a determined
effort to drive safely and
Arrive Alive."

'I


SAY YOU SAW IT IN THE- STAR!


Brother Will came down from Chattahoo-
chee Saturday and came by the office for a
short visit.
Brother Will was making foolish noises like
Chattahoochee was all set and primed to beat
Port St.. Joe in football tomorrow night.
Something like that has never happened before
and is not likely to happen in the future. We
make this rash statement even in the face of
Florida defeating Auburn in Cliff Haire
Stadium for the first time in history Saturday.
The statement of Brother Will was made in
a moment of vertigo or something, I think. He
is supposed to know something about football.
He knows what to look for other than what
shows on the down marker, the score board
and the distance being made by the lad who
happens to be carrying the ball.
I can't lay claim to such knowledge. I only
know what shows up in the aforementioned
obvious results. But I know better than Brother
Will what is going to happen Friday night, even
if I know from nothing about the fine points of
the popular game.
Brother Will has been in Chattahoochee for
about nine years now. All this time he has
fooled those people into believing he truly
belongs on the outside. Should he keep on
making such foolish statements as the one last
Saturday they will surely cart him off into the
free room and board section.


BIG BELLIES AND BIG FANNIES
I read the other day where most women
are most concerned about their big fannies and
the men are most concerned about their big
bellies.
The article was a reporting of a poll taken
to see what part of their bodies people were
most worried about that part they would
change if they could.
Personally, I thought it was the other way
around the men were worried about the
women's big fannies and the women were
worried about their husband's big bellies
(notice I didn't say the men were worried
about their WIFE'S big fanny).
i'm -glad 'these'poil people didn't ask-me
ab p by, pdy.and,. what part I was most
concerned with. I couldn't really give them an
answer. I'm concerned about my own fanny to
an extent. I'm concerned about the infrequency
it gets to come into contact with my, big chair
at home and just cool it. Then I'm worried
about my feet, which get to aching something
fierce along about 4:00 or 5:00 in the afternoon
and get to asking me to take my shoes off and
prop them up. That's a legitimate worry since
my feet don't get their way in that respect and
this worries me as much as it does my feet.
I'm not particularly worried about my
belly. It serves me in good stead. It will accept
almost anything I like to eat without growling
back. The only problem I have with my belly is
sometimes I will get to tasting something real
good and it says it has had enough before I get
enough.
I'm not regular, I guess, since my belly
doesn't bulge enough to worry me. Not saying
it doesn't bulge a tad, mind you, but not enough
to worry me.
I didn't pursue this piece in the paper
further than to just make my own conclusions.
I didn't take the poll further and ask my wife if
her hips were too big. Nor did I ask her if. my
belly was too big. I just didn't feel like listening
to the obvious answer.

A BRIGHT FUTURE
If I know my pastor very well-and after a
20 year association, I think I do-when he
opened the session of Congress with prayer last
Thursday, he prayed that the members of that
body'would let God guide them in these trying
times in our government. I know, also, that he
prayed for God's hand to be upon the members
and give them the wisdom to do what is
necessary to once again to establish faith in the
government of our nation.
There is no doubt in my mind but what God
will answer that prayer if the individual
members of Congress will be more concerned
with seeking the guidance of God than they are
concerned with making points for one of the
two political parties. If the Congress becomes
concerned with the future of America,
primarily, the future of America will be bright.

Over 32 million women are
earning social security pro-
tection for themselves and
their families through their
own work, according to
Robert Latta, Social Security
Representative for Gulf
County.
"The working woman has
both disability and survivors
protection," Latta said. If she
becomes unable to work for a
year or longer because of a
disabling accident..or severe
illness, she, and her depen-

Hostesses will' 'be Mrs.

All members are asked to
bring flower arrangements
suitable for Thanksgiving
using fresh plant material,
flowers, fresh or artificial
fruits and vegetables. Each
arrangement should contain
some fresh plant material.

dents may be eligible for.
monthly cash payments from
social security."
If a working woman dies
prematurely, monthly cash
payments from social secur-
ity can help her children
through school (until they're
22, if they remain full-time
students and unmarried).
"If a working woman's
husband is, 62 or older_ and
dependent upon her for his
support, he also can be
eligible for monthly social


'security payments on her
work record," Latta said.
Even though her husband
may be working at a full-time
job, her children are still
eligible for benefits on her
work record.
On her own work record,
the working woman can
retire at 62 with reduced
monthly cash payments. Or
she can wait until she's 65
and get full monthly cash
benefits, Latta stated. But, if
she could collect higher
benefits as a wife on her
husband's record, she will
collect the higher benefit.

People can eat their raw
oysters and raw scallops with
confidence, according to in-
formation given to the Rotary
Club last Thursday by
John Taylor, chief of the
Marine Laboratory of Apa-
lachicola.
The duties of the Labora-
tory, are to inspect the water
in which shell fish are

harvested for human con-
sumption and to test waters
used for public bathing.
Taylor said half of the
oysters harvested in the
states of Alabama, Georgia
and Florida 'come from
Apalachicola Bay. "It's our
) job to ,see that,.those oysters
are safe to eat", he said.
Taylor ,said an oyster will


eat anything and waters,
where human waste is
expelled and run-off from
organic farming is found is
subject to carry Coloform,
from which the disease of
cholera comes.
Another duty of the labor-
atory is to check areas of
public bathing for the same
organism.
The laboratory is operated
by the Federal Government.

IN MEMORIUM
In sad but loving memory
of our beloved mother, grand-
mother, and great grand-
mother, Mrs. Floyd Dickens,
who entered upon this earth
on Feb., 21. 1889, and kindly
answered her masters call on
Nov. 9. 1970 at her home.
Loving Memories
Mother, you were so
beautiful in o'so many ways.
You were a cheer and solemn
comfort sent down to share
my days' (17 yrs. Oct. 14).
With every question asked,
Mom. you had the key, and
within your sunny smile
Mother stars seemed to
dance for me.
They say Time heals all
sorrows and helps us to
forget. But Time so far has
only proved how much you
really meant.
Your 'gentle face and
patient smile with sadness we
recall: you had a kindlyword
for each and died beloved by
all.
If we had our life to give.
we'll give it yes and more, to
hear your voice, to see your
smile. and greet you at the
door.
From now until the days of
'i iiy. 1 say to you. Mlom.
you t.ilc the dearest, sweet-
est grandmother in all thel
world lo me.

The military airlift com-
mand flew approximately
11,000 U.S.-based soldiers and
more than 1,000 tons of
equipment to three different
airfields in Germany in
preparation for the event.
Iminediately after arriving
overseas, the redeployed
units drew combat gear and
vehicles from propositioned
storage sites in Germany and
moved to the exercise area to
begin the seven-day, field
maneuvers.
Pitted against the airlifted
forces were Europe-based
elements of NATO forces of
the U.S., Germany / and
Canada.
The exercise, conducted by
the joint chiefs of staff and
NATO, focused on the pro-
cedures and techniques for
receiving, equipping, assem-
bling and employing units
after they arrive, rather than
on rapid deployment of
troops from the U.S.

Rambles

The way most people manage to live within their
incomes is partly.

Hip huggers: belly jeans.

Nowadays, the only time children are seen and not
heard is when they're on the other side of a plate glass
window.

It's nice to have the highest standard of living in the
world. Too bad we can't afford it..

Pity the. poor politician-he's either being sworn in
or sworn at!

Keep Your Ornamentals Warm


Heating is still the most
widely used means of pre-
venting cold injury in com-
merical plantings- of 'orna-
mentals. Most of these
methods of protecting .plants
growing in the open or
around the home are too
expensive and inconvenient
to set up and operate. A
simple method of heating
ornamental plants around the


home is to use a light bulb
under an opaque cover such
as a sheet, black plastic or
similar covering.
Covering plants with an
opaque cover without the
addition of heat is more a
protection against frost than
against extreme cold. Proper
use of covers for plants
usually reduces cold injury
by reducing heat loss from


the plant by-;raoiation and. can be protected agait

effective as long as the water

any reason the supply of
water is cut off or if too little
water is applied freeze injury
may be increased. It is very
important to continue the
sprinkler application until
thawing occurs.
The value of watering
plants before a freeze is
debatable. A wet soil is a

some water.
Again, the best way to
avoid severe winter damage
is to have your plants in the
best possible health. This
means they should be well
watered. fertilized and other-
wise cared for during the
entire year. A healthy plant
is always more cold hardy.

divided the running chores
and Danny Tankersley and
Russell Chas6n hauled in 13
and 15 yard passes, before
Bailey plunged over from the
one yard line for the score.
Moore again kicked the extra
point to give the Sharks a 21-7
lead at half time.
The third period and the
first portion of the last saw
the Sharks lose the ball four
times due to errors and
the Dogs once from a fumble.
The Dogs Frank Bondurant
intercepted two Owens passes
and recovered two fumbles to
stop drives. Bruce Nixon fell
on the Marianna fumble and
then did himself a little
running for the first time this
year, returning the ball for 12


yards.
The Sharks last scoring
drive started on a Shark
fumble. Owens lost the ball in
the hand-off deep in Shark
territory. The Dogs could
manage only four yards,
though, and the Sharks took
over almost where they had
lost the ball in the exchange.
Carl Bailey then ripped off
gainers of 10, 10, seven,
.seven, four and eight yards to
put the Sharks on the four.
yard line. Robert Dickens ran
right through 'the middle of
the line to get the Sharks last
score of the game.
With only- 47 yards rushing
and 97 yards passing, it was
easy to see the tough Shark
defense was in high gear

Of the 200,000 mentally
retarded people in' Florida,
five percent live in residen-

serves people in the local
community.

Kitchen

Chatter
Buy and serve good meat
for your families. Meat
makes the meal, so plan your
menu with appetizing cuts of
meat and remainder of
menus comes easy with
variety in color, texture, and
flavor. The fame of each cut
of meat depends upn the way
you cook it. For instance, a
Porterhouse steak would be
quite tasteless if it were
braised and a low grade
round steak would be un-
chewable if it were broiled.
ROAST OF BEEF
4 lb. Sirloin Tip or Rump
Roast
1 teaspoon salt
is teaspoon black pepper
1 can Campbell's onion
soup or Lipton onion soup
(dry)
Garlic clove
Wipe off roast with a damp
cloth; rub salt and pepper
into roast. Pierce roast and
place peeled garlic clove into
meat so that garlic is not
visible on surface. Place
roast in heavy duty foil and
put in shallow baking pan.
Pour can of onion soup or
package of Lipton's onion
soup directly on. roast; fold
and seal foil. Bake at 325
degrees F. for three hours.
Meat thermometer will regis-
ter 170 degrees. This recipe
will yield 21/2 to three cups
gravy and roast servings for
six to eight.
Food Quickie-Broil grape-
fruit halves with two tea-
spoons of brown sugar
