JOE, FLORIDA -THURSDAY, JANUARY 3, 1973 Fire Takes Life of John Mims Fire claimed the life of Johnnie L. Mims, 69, last Thursday night when his home burned. The fire apparently started from a faulty heater in the home which was located on Third Street in High- land View. The alarmwas phoned in to the Port St. Joe Fire Department at 8:45 P.M., Thursday and they assisted the Highland View Department. Firemen were not'aware-Mims was in the house until after the flames were brought under control His body was found in the rear part of the home when mopping up operations were started, . Setback Hearing Recommendations for the location of a coastal construc- tion setback line in Gulf County will be considered at a public hearing in the Gulf County Courthouse, located on Highway 71 in Port St. Joe, beginning at 7:30 p.m., Thursday, January 10. In announcing the meeting, Randolph Hodges, executive director of the Department of Natural Resources, stated the purpose of the public hearing is to take evidence for the establishment of this line along the Gulf front of the county.

Last Year In Gulf County Had A Little Bit of Every Kind of News It was a year of progress, a 'year of tragedy and a year of sensational news in Port St. Joe and Gulf County during the past year. The most sensational story of the year happened just as Father Time was packing up his gear in prepara- tion to moving out and leaving every- thing to the New Year. Christmas Eve, law enforecement agencies ap- prehended approximately 18 tons of marijuana on a farm near Overstreet, which made the news over the entire nation. Officials said the haul was the largest ever made in the nation. Tragedy stalked the highways of Gulf County in 1973 as six people met death on the 'roads. Records show only four died on the County's high- ways the previous year. Sad news, for those who revere the past, was the tearing down of two landmarks in Port St. Joe. The City's first school building, a two story brick structure on Long Avenue was razed. The building was con- structed in 1916 and served the School system continuously until the new High School was built five years ago. A second building, the old First Baptist Church, was also torn down during the year. On the political front, the County acquired its fourth Sheriff in 1973 as Raymond Lawrence was sworn into office, nosing out veteran Sheriff Byrd E. Parker, who had served in the office for 36 years. David Bidwell became the County's fourth Superin- tendent of Schools during the year. Gulf County received its regular decade snow in 1973 as the white flakes barely covered the ground on the morning of Saturday, February 10. Things didn't always run smooth in the County during the past year. The County Commission was notified during the year that the present system of providing ambulance ser- vice was no longer acceptable under new state regulations. The Commis- sion has been wrestling with the problem all year and has decided to tip-toe into the ambulance service with state aid. The gasoline shortage, which has plagued the nation for most of the ,year arrived in Gulf County in June of last year. But Gulf County immed- iately did its part in solving the problem when a genuine attempt was made to find oil in the Odena area. The attempt didn't meet with success however. An effort was started this past year to try and combat the weed problem which entomologists say is killing the Dead Lakes in Wewa- hitchka. Construction was started on a structure to drain the Lakes per- iodically and let the sun kill the noxious weeds. Pocketbooks of City dwellers were hit this past year when the City increased the amount to be charged for water, sewer and garbage ser- vices. The City Commission said the new rate structure would make the services self supporting. The good news? Well, there was some. St. Joe Paper Company and its operating unions signed a new three year contract without reverting to a strike. A developer announced he had purchased nearly 1,000 acres on St. Joseph Peninsula and had plans to construct 10,000 condominium apart- ments on the property. A new charter was applied for to secure a State Bank in Port St. Joe. Port St. Joe High School graduated 109 seniors. The-Star changed over to the offset method of printing. The new $9.2 million Wastewater Treatment plant was finally finished and should now be trying to start operations. TEN CENTS A COPY * "'-. * ~ . I ~I ~f Schools Changing Hours As DST Time Begins Over Nation Sunday morning, Gulf County and the rest of the nation springs ahead to Daylight Savings Time. This means we must set the clock ahead Saturday night by one hour. This is four months earlier than the usual switch to the early time, but has been decreed by the Government in an effort to conserve energy. The new time also has prompted the Gulf County School Board to juggle the starting time for school here in the Port St. Joe area. When school starts again Monday after the two week holiday vacation, classes will get underway at 9:10 A.M. at the Elementary schools and 9:30 A.M. at the High School. According to Supervising Principal, Ken Herring, the new starting time will not shorten the school day as the time for releasing the students has also been set up an hour. "We'll be starting school at the same time as always by the sun", Herring said, "But the clock will read an hour later when the classes start." Classes in Wewahitchka will start at the same time by the clock as they have in the past. Workmen got started last week on the construction of Port St. Joe's modern new fire station, to be located behind the City Hall, facing Williams Avenue. J. B.

" We could resolve to look for or ?wish for the opportunity ,to better jur financial standing in the new '!ear This would be a popular and .sought after position. -Everybody' wants to pile up more financial 'goods. As a rule; though, this only makes us impatient to earn and collectt more.

This, though, would !only bring on ,.the desire 'to take more time to play and would only sharpen -our eagerness to have the time pass faster so our days of play would get -ground more often. t: A new year could bring the resolve to spend more time with dur grandchildren, but they are so lively an hour or two with those wild horses makes our nerves get edgy la,.,ir' we are ic.,d. l,,'..

"J'ooA ,.i,,i a righ it takes too much time and we all get impatient to have the job done before -we even get started. We could resolve not to gripe too much when things don't move along as fast as we think they should. This is a very nasty habit and we know it. . Looking over the list, it seems the only thing we could resolved which would be worthwhile would be to resolve to be more patient. This. would take care of all the other resolves we probably couldn't keep. All are dependent upon that virtue of patience-a virtue which we have so little of and need so badly. We'll resolve it, but we don't think it's going to work. Mak Christmas Merry Port St. Joe HEgh School's Kec.

Kill er -::1'.ft > The talk of the town in Port St. Joe this past week, naturally, has been the big marijuana haul at Overstreet. These things always happen somewhere else, don't they? We are so prone to ignore the warnings and the list of things to look for in preventing crime put out by the police, the FBI and other law enforcement because this type of thing never happens here. It always happens to other people". It was almost unbelievable that this much marijuana could be brought to-iet her in .one :pAt That's probably the reason this particular spot was selected-because it was out of the way. One thing we noticed, though; Overstreet was listed by the wire services as being near Port St. Joe, not Panama City, as is usually the case. We made:, our usual Christmas telephone calls to the in-laws in Minnii '~,l and soittle. Washington last week. It hurt us to sit in the bedroom at the telephone with our shoes off and our s:tocki-eed feet perched up on the window sill where the cool breezes could blow between our toes while talking to relatives buried under the snow. It was near zero in St. Paul and freezing in W iii( ,,' . Who said the patent medicine show was dead? Have you watched television lately?

Just thought I'd throw in that little piece of information to sort of let you know we are starting a new year in pretty good shape after all. Usually I write this piece on Saturday afternoon after everyone has gone home and there's nobody around to disturb what little thoughts I may have. This week, with the holidays, the thoughts didn't come Saturday, so the writing was put off until Monday, when the thoughts still didn't show up. Last week, I picked up the Tallahassee Democrat and saw that Editor Malcolm Johnson filled up one of his columns on just such an occasion by going on for a full column about how a columnist should be prepared for those moment when the words just won't come. He did al pretty good job of it too. I'm not going to do that, though, I'm just going to turn everything off and go home to watdh Alabama win the Sugar Bowl. TUESDAY-H-m-m-m-m! They didn't do it did they! The easiest thing to do would be to just throw away the paragraph above and let it go at that. On second thought, though, I'll just leave it there and give Padre David O'Shea something to gloat over start his new year off right. Getting back to TV. I'm amazed at the Wisk commercial and its cure for "ring around the collar"., My Momma used to tell me she knew best and she used to call it "dirty collar". She would tell me to wash my neck better and I wouldn't have dirty collar. The question now comes to my mind as to whether "ring around the collar" and "dirty collar" are one and the same thing. If so, does Wisk clean one's neck as well as the shirt collar, or is this just another case for an examination of "truth in advertising"? I'm sure Momma was right because she said she was. To give her the benefit of the doubt, there was no such thing as Wisk then. We had to make do with Oxydol and Octagon and elbow grease.

Well, if you're looking for a grass for that npw 1974 hemp or a repl.areL r ,..-w ipr E ii..o old,. '. -. ..*'f ,-w., ,Ph., uP.ere's a brand new variety *~,,. ,r you should know about. Its name is 'Floratam'. It's fast growing, dark green, broad leafed and in several ways, superior to several older lawn varieties. If you're interested, read on. 'Floratam' is a L,. ,,:. released variety of St. Augustine grass for Florida lawns. This new addition was released ...,.i.E,. by the University of'. Florida and Teax A & M l,.-' *'., thus the name 'Floratam', which denotes Florida .l(..r..' and Texas A & M (Tam). But, why all the excitement about another lawngrass, -especially St. ,r i, S'f -' First of all, .,. are St. u'-' grasses so popular in Florida? St. Augustine grasses are the most versatile of Flori- da's lawngrasses. i ,.. thrive quite well on acid or alkaline soils, in soils very low in organic matter or on pure organic *-',i. in full sun or r...,:,'f'.,. shade, and on' Poorly drained or well drained soils. St. ., w i,; .'. grasses are. the most salt tolerant of our lawngrasses and have r,'i.,i' fewer disease and nematode prob- lems. As a result, they have a rather low maintenance requirement in comparison to many other types 6f lawn- grasses. All of these advan- tages have made St. August- ine grass the most commonly planted turf for home lawns in Florida and along the Gulf Coast area. Why is this new variety 'Floratam' any better than older ( ',,:,'. like common 'Bitter Blue' or 'Floratine'? First of all, 'Floratam' shows resistance to a disease called SAD virus and also has resistance to an insect called the chinch, bug. Of less importance, 'Floratam' is very vigorous, covering the ground rapidly, has -good color, fair tolerance to downy mildew and gray leaf spot diseases, and is well adapted to growing conditions in Florida. Perhaps the first two advantages need some ex- planation. St. Augustine Decline, abbreviated SAD, is a new mosaic Virus disease of St. Augustine grass first ob- served in Texas in 1966. It has caused extensive damage to lawns in Texas. SAD virus has not been found in Florida to date, but it has spread throughout southern Texas, .Ji,' f.' "J'i .,,, v. I. ,i '. ., .. ... . ," thar,',- ar.,,.e r. , : i f.. % ,, ., ] .' .. I ; .. .. : are very good. All of the older varieties of St. Augus- ,..", are .. ..* ', ', to the SAD virus, however, Flora- tam' shows resistance to St. ',...... '.. Decline. For this .reason alone, 'Floratam' becomes an extremely important .."-,.," *'. to the St. i,& .:.., 1n.1.. grasses commer- - ..r. available I.... -: now has.a strain of St. -\.'.>',-,r.... resistant to 'r.- virus should it ever be introduced ..-' - state. A resistant variety is * r'..-:il' important because there is no- other way to control this virus disease: At the present time, the biggest problem with St. Ar>,>.iir grass lawns in Florida is the chinch bug. These bugs cause severe damage .to .many lawns N '.[...,.-,a Florida and per- .- .- require expensive chemical control using insect- icides. Independent labora- tory and greenhouse trials in Florida and' Texas have shown 'Floratam' to be resistant to chinch bug injury. If this resistance holds true in p.i-. . [t,'..,r.' .,.wt the state, 'Flora- tam''will play-a major role in ..1 ; ...-1i.i or ,, -r ._ this insect pest which is the biggest problem on St. .. i..' .-a r.e lawns. 'Floratam' does have sev- eral problems as do many other St. A,,'.,. grasses so don't think it is the "cure-all" for all your lawn problems. It has broad leaves and a coarse texture; its color is not as blue-green as the varieties 'Bitterblue' or 'Floratine'; it grows 4 *e' rapidly and needs frequent mowing and possibly control of thatch; and it is suscepti- ble to damage by lawn caterpillars and gray leaf spot and brown patch disease, as are all St. August- ine grasses. If you are considering planting St. Augustine grass- es, the new 'Floratam' variety should at least be considered. It has advantages and disadvantages like all lawngrasses, but its resist- ance to SAD virus and resist- ance or high tolerance to chinch bug damage should make it an extremely import- ant addition to the St. August- ine grasses presently avail- able.

Patrol Director Colonel El- drige Beach offered the follow- ing tips to improve seeing habits even though a driver has excellent eyesight: -People in the northern part of Florida should clean the frost from their windows each mor ning before leaving home. -Do not wear colored, tinted or polarized glasses and face shields while driving at night as this positively restricts your vision. However, they may lessen eye strain when dri' i"n in bright sunlight. -Keep'headlights and tail- lights clear of mud and bugs as this can cut illumination in half. When driving at night and meeting another car, do not look at its headlights; try to look at the rightside of the road. -Replace windshieldwipers as soon as they appear to be deteriorating enough to reduce vision -When leaving a brightly lit restaurant or service station at night, remember that it takes your eyes several minutes to get their night vision back so drive accordingly. -If you have less than 20-20 vision, driveata reduced speed because you may not recognize stop signs or dangerous situa- tions in time to take action.

S3t 12-20 FLORIDA WILDLIFE COMMENTS ON THE OUTDOORS By Dr. 0. E. Frye,, Director 2.sS~qC J Jr. GAME AND FRESH WATER FISH COMMISSION TALLAHASSEE-Ask any fisherman and he will tell you that Florida bass grow big. In .the past, anglers from all points north, east, and west traveled to the Sunshine State with high hopes of catching the buglemouth tackle-buster that would erase the world record of 22 pounds, four ounces, caught in a Georgia lake in 1932, Today, it appears as thl.;-ih;t a Florida black -bass will, sometime during 1974, c.iI.'b i' a new world record. . While the bass will be Florida, the body of water will be far removed from the mocking- birds and orange trees and pf-'b.ibly be situated as a water supply reservoir near the City of San Ti, :'.: in Southern California. While the world record black bass has not been seriously challenged in some forty years, the record book has reported hearing foot- steps during the past few years and these footsteps were caused by a number of Florida black bass that were released in a certain Califor- nia lake in San Diego C'..unt, beginning in 1960. On June 23, 1973, a young gentleman of Clare- mont, California, caught a bass in Lake Miramar and the angler got so excited that he forgot to pull in his anchor before heading back to the boat dock. He dragged anchor and line all the way across the lake in his haste to weigh his monster Florida-strain bass. He did have good reason to be excited. The fish was verified by California fish biologist as a 20-pound, 15-ounce bass, the largest ever taken in Califor- nia and, quite possibly, one of the second or third largest bass ever caught in th' United States. The Florida-strain California bass fell only one pound and five ounces short of the world record. The footsteps being heard by the record keepers is the progression of big Florida bass being -: ,r.,; in the California lake. In 1968, it was 14 pounds, ?:' ..'.:,+ In 1969. (15 pounds, four ounces), 1970 (not official since a pbacher caught a 15-pound, seven and three- quarter ounce bass out of season), 1971 (16 pounds, 11 ounces), and 1972 (17 pounds, 14 r,'o '. The Florida fish released in the Ca..: .. 'lake grow short and stocky and feed heavily on the planted catchable-size rainbow trout. The 20-pound, 15-ounce catch was described as an overstuffed grotesque beadh ball with two eyes and a tail Not to be outdone, Okla- homa- anglers have started licking their chops, in an- :-. .'r .of some real tackle-bustin' experiences in a few years, as I1 ,\:) Florida black bass between four and eight inches long were recent- ly stocked in nine Oklahoma impoundments. The Florida bass has been widely acclaimed as a strain that achieves larger body size and weight than the large- mouth bass native to Okla- homa and it is expected that the Florida bass may live longer than native fish, con- tributing to the possibility the fish may obtain a heavier and larger body size during its life span. Yes, there is no doubt that the record largehnouth bass will soon tumble and the cause of the fall will be a Florida bass. The big question in the minds of Florida anglers-will it be a Florida bass, or a Florida-California bass, or perhaps a Flcrida- Oklahomc bass. Regcrdiess cf strain o r ocation, we don:t anticipate Florida anglers giving up the quest for the new record, as the real goal is in the fun of trying. -PAGE FOUR *YULIAPE P iU I Elio Mod I.. r I -- EA PAR TOW I A IMMO, ~i- Motorists Must Show Proof of Responsibility Motorists in Gulf bounty and elsewhere in Florida are -reminded that after January 1 they cannot pass auto inspections unless they show proof, of liability insurance Coverage. If motorists don't have such insurance they'll just have to go back and get it. The -state no-fault insur- ance law makes liability insurance mandatory after January I and the job of enforcing the law has been turned over to the Highway Patrol. The patrol will make an insurance check a routine ,part of every vehicle inspec- tion. Unless the motorist shows acceptable proof of insurance, he' cannot get a sticker. There is no penalty for drivers who fail to get insurance before they have their cars inspected, unless they are involved in an accident. Then they can lose their tag and driver's license. Auto inspection stations will accept four documents as proof of insurance: An insurance policy; An insurance policy binder; Certificate of insurance, usually issued to self-insured drivers or vehicles covered by fleet insurance; A uniform identification card issued by the insurance company and approved by the Department of Insurance. Mandatory liability insur- ance must provide coverage of at least $10,000 for death or injury to one person, $20,000 for death or injury to two or more persons and $5,000 for property damage. Highway Patrol figures show 14 percent of all drivers involved in accidents do not have insurance.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 3, 1973 Plowing Ruling Is Muddy Representative Billy Joe Rish announced that there was some confusion in recent news releases regarding the policy of plowing fire lines by the State Division of. For- estry, A recent release had indicated that all plowing for small landowners would be discontinued. Rep. Rish stated, "I have visited 'with John Bethea and others in the Dep.ir';e:.' of '-.- j.'.ur-.' and tb"'. have advised ":me that they will continue' to perform ; k-.:n services for small land- owners with small jobs at no cost to the landowner if the job has some connection with burning or fire 'r '.*er!...n After the first few minutes of plowing the landowner will then be required to pay for the services as has been customary in the past." "This is one of the finest services .'provided for our small landowners and I am grateful that the Department of Agriculture can readily see the value of this service." Rish was high in his praise of the work and ..;.ow "'.-.*. which the Division of For- estry had given in clearing up this problem. PAEFV SRoche Rambles By W. C.

Chief Warrant Officer Wil- laim L. Demetropoulos of the Mobile station told river users at a 'meeting here Fri- 'day, Dec. 28, that new mar- kers requested by the Tri- Rivers Waterway Develop- ment' Association are 'being manufactured. He said he would begin installing them in about two weeks, starting at the mouth of the Apalach- icola River, continuing up the Chattahoochee to Columbus, and then moving to the Flint. .He expects the change-over to take, about 30 days. Congress recently author- ized $17,500 for the project, at the request of Tri-Rive-s. Demetropoulos designed the new "day marks" and bouys after meeting with cap- tains and touring the river with working tug. boats to observe problems in the existing marker system. With the new system, Demetropoulos said, Coast SGuardsmen will be able to mQve a bouy immediately after a hazard is reported. Demetropoulos' said this would be the first trial for the new steering guides -but that another waterway system already had asked to be next -in line for them.

One of the latest demon- strations of environmental concern by a major agricul- tifral firm is the Asgrow Seed Company's decision to mini- mize the placement of their signs along public roads and highways. The company will place signs only to mark test plot locations, and .to identify dealers in the future, accord- ing to Bill Schapaugh, gen- eral manager of the firmn's agronomic division. Previously, salesmen! and dealers often placed signs where crops were planted with the company's seed along well-traveled thorough- fares, Schapaughl says. This amounted to thousands of signs around the country. "Although some states are taking, action to prohibit or limit placement of signs along public roads, such signs re- main legal in many areas," Schapaugh explains. "How- ever, we feel that the trend to scenic beautification is clear and we plan to help lead in supporting this cause on a voluntary basis." In the past`; Asgrow has used three types of signs, in- cluding Aealer identification signs, small signs for crop variety identification, and larger (40" x 48") road signs containing the familiar-com- pany trademark; In the fu- ture, these road signs and crop identification signs will be limited to educational crop demonstration locations. Only the dealer identification signs will be used as before. I think that I sh'211 never see A billboard lovely as a tree. Perhaps, unless the billboards fall, I'll never see a tree at all. --Ogden Nash These two drawings illustrate what has happened to the scenery along much of America's roadways and what the landscape could look like again if the road signs were removed. 0c02 iio- Z TO School Lunchroom Menus Port St. Joe High School Lunch Room Menu Monday, January 7 Sloppy Joe on bun, buttered corn, hamburger with bun, French fries, green salad, banana pudding.
