In Monday's opening ceremonies, Jaycee Robert
Montgomery presented the keys to a new concessions stand
built by the Jaycees, to Mayor Pate. Montgomery is shown

Stone Beating Bushes Here

Flood insurance for Gulf
.County was a topic of discus-
sion by the County Commis-
sion Tuesday night. In order
for the County to have the
insurance available, there
are certain things the County
must do. The question is
whether or not they want to
do them in order to make
what they fear will be a
government controlled ser-
vice for the people.
The subject was brought up
. by a letter' from the North-
west Florida Development
Council which has pointed out
that a portion of the current
work by the County Planning
Committee would pave the
way fo& completing require-
ments for the flood insur-
ance.
Commissioner Walter Gra-
ham seemed to express the
feelings of the Board when he'
stated a fear that restric-
tions of the insurance would
make unreasonable demands
of property owners. He re-
ported he had received sev-
eral complaints from the in-
surance service in Franklin
County.
Several of the things re-
quired before the insurance
could be made available
would be a building code for
the county which would out-
line property which could and
could not be built on in the
county without the danger of
flooding in every instance of
high water.
Because of the feared con-
tirols and requirements which
the Board felt "would erode
the rights of the property
owner", the matter was put
off for further study.
FIRE CONTROL
DISTRICT MONEY
Distribution of the St. Jos-
eph Fire Control District
taxes grew a little complicat-
ed Tuesday, when the Board
learned the Tax Assessor had
erred some $800,000 in his
estimate of taxable values in
the district, resulting in re-
ceipts of $2,000 less than
anticipated.
The problem came when it
was learned the County had
already paid the City of Port
St. Joe its share for last year
(50 percent of the total) but
the take was $2,000 short,
resulting in an overpayment
to the City..
This year, the Board
thought it had $7,000 on the
books, but actually only $4,-
124.54 was billed to tax pay-
ers.
The Board had already ob-
ligated a part of this money
for improvements to the
Highland View and White
City Fire Departments. New
trucks were purchased for
the new departments to be
amortized over a period of
years from the fund. In addi-
tion, .-White City had bills of
$1,760 for a pump for their
truck and $2,503.68 for a
water tank. The money will


now have to be paid out of
revenue sharing funds.
The Board agreed that
what has put 'the fund in a
bind is the assessment given


by the County Tax Assessor
from which the budget was
drawn. As a result of the
financial confusion, the

Judge Moore
Plans Course
County Judge Robert M.
Moore announced this week
he would hold a seminar on
April 24 to acquaint persons
with the operation of the
Summary Claim Court (for-
merly the Small Claims
Court) in order that people
may use it properly without
the services of a lawyer.

It's The Season For


New Life


The most important event ever
to happen to mankind will be
observed this Sunday, when all
Christendom will pause to view
again the resurrection of Jesus
Christ from the grave as a symbol
of his triumph over death and
offering a new life to man. Like
Christmas, which marks the birth-
day of Jesus, even those who do not
claim to be a Christian will have
"observed one of the most important
events of Christianity.
It's always a wonder to us how
everything which is recorded in the
Bible has a meaning to mankind as
a whole as well as to the person to
whom the particular event is hap-
pening. The Bible is filled with
truths for mankind from one cover
to the other using the example of
the effect of belief or disbelief
toward God upon one person or the
other.
We're all amazed when -we&
study and see the double and even
triple meanings of each event.


Everything happens in its own
season and for a definite purpose.
Even the Resurrection of Jesus
from the dead happens in the
proper season. Spring is the time of
year for the beginning of new life
for things controlled by 'nature
(nature being the hand of God). In
the spring the plants put forth new
life; the earth begins to bring forth
fruit which is necessary to sustain
life in man, thus bringing new life
to man also.
Easter, the time of the year in
which the Crucifixion took place, is
set in this season of new beginning,
of new life.
Jesus has said in his many
ministries, "I have come to bring
life and to bring it more abundant-
ly". It's fitting that his act of
guaranteeing this "new life'?; should
happen at the "new life" time of
the year.
See you in church ,;Sunday,
' 4where'"-we can all join together oin i,
study of this new life and the one
who offers it freely.


Buy and Enjoy


We received a letter to the
editor here at The Star last week
wanting something done about pre-
serving the beaches in the Cape
San blas area. Our writer was
disturbed at the thought of the
property being sold and built upon.
On the surface this sounds real
good especially to those of us
who do not have a dime invested in
that expensive beach property. The
thought of being able to go to the
beach area and look at expanses of
sand dunes, vegetation peculiar to
only the beach front area and the
undisturbed view of the water
sounds appealing. It is expensive
property. You can buy property in
downtown Port St. Joe about as
cheap as you can purchase water
front property in Gulf or any other
county. Those with their money
invested deserve a chance to be
able to reap some benefits.
We are opposed to destroying
the beaches and we feel some
construction does just that. We
have come to learn that most ot
those with this property are aware
of these destructive forces and wish
to maintain their good fortune at
owning the water front property
and don't wish to see it destroyed.
There are the other kind, too, and
these are the ones who strike fear


There are all kinds of bars..
They say that iron bars do
not a prison make but they
surely do their part. Then
there are captains' bars that
signify accomplishment. I al-


into the hearts of most men.
The only way we can see for
maintaining our beaches in their
present state is for the government
to buy it up and set it aside. But,
until just a few years ago the
Government owned the property
referred to and man couldn't enjoy
it because he couldn't get to it. Now
the Government has released- it and
it is being snapped up.
It appears that the only hope
we have for preserving the beaches
is through zoning and building
restrictions which would allow de-
velopment without destruction.
This is possible, even though some
don't believe it. Here in Gulf
County we have taken only the first
child's step toward this type control
and we can only hold our breath
that the zoning is completed before
the beaches are ruined by the few
unscrupulous people who would do
just that for a buck.
In the meantime, if the writer,
or anyone else, wishes to maintain
an unfettered view of the wild
beaches as they have been for
centuries, the only solution we can
offer is for those people to contact
those who have the property for
sale: buy it and enjoy its view for
as long as you please. Fortunately,
there is no law against this.


so heard that Davy Crockett
killed one when the bar was
only two, but that's not the
kind of bar I'm thinking
about.
In and around Port St. Joe


there are several nice ones.

them you can drown your
sorrows, celebrate your vic-
tories or just sit and sip and

EDITOR

Dear Editor:
The Girl Scout Council of
the Apalachee Bend would
like to thank the entire com-
munity of Port St. Joe for
your generous support to our
Annual Cookie Sale.
Funds generated by this
sale make up most of the
money available to troops for
any activities they might
wish to participate in. Part of
the money also goes to camp-
site development which this
year.means "A Camp for All
Seasons", our beautiful new
facility located on Lake Tal-
quin. This .new camp will
give more girls than ever
before the opportunity to take
part in resident camp pro-
grams. Camperships, also
funded by cookie money,
offer girls who may have
otherwise been financially
unable to attend, a way to go
to camp. k
A successful cookie sale
means a healthy Girl Scout
program. Thanks to your
support, the Apalachee Bend
Council can better serve the
more than 4,500 girls involved
in Scouting this year.
Sincerely,
Mary T. Sinks

"You have to understand
that the Apalachicola is a
way of life and Floridians are
not prepared to sacrifice it to
get barges up and down the
river," Shields said.
Shield's reaction to the pre-
sentation made by Col. Wil-
son was the mildest. Dr. Ver-
non Keys, Florida Health offi-
cial presently studying the
river, said the engineers
should build a ditch from
Savannah to Atlanta, Ga. if
that state wants an inland
seaport.
Corps Chief Wilson said the
engineers now have an eco-
nomical and ecologically
sound plan to provide a year-
round navigational channel
on the river which conects
the Chattahoochee and Flint
Rivers with the Gulf of
Mexico.
He said the new plans call
for one "run-of-the-river"

with and then we figured up
what 16 times 35 cents
amounted to and as this
came to five dollars and sixty
cents, we gave her that. The
drinks were supposed to be
mixed and as we liked it
straight, she would drop one
piece of ice into each one. We
always tried to get in an
inconspicious booth as the
A.P.'s were always hanging
around. We were drinking
imitation bourbon made out
Qf some part of a sugar cane
and it tasted like a cross
between cane buck and black
strap molasses.
After 16 shots things began
to look better and I asked the
Wahini waitress if she'd be


it to contain the river in the
low areas.
Col. Wilson said the new
plan would flood only 600
acres of swampland com-
pared to the 6,000 acres pro-
posed in the two dams pre-
viously recommended.
He said the dam which
would provide a nine-foot

Under what amounted to a.
cross-examination from Asst.
Attorney General Ken Tuck-
er, wilsoni revealed 85 per
cent of the benefits of the
economic benefits of the dam
would go to Georgia and Ala-
bama.
"There is only one port in
Florida on the river," Wilson
said, "and that one at Sneads
might realize a 15 per cent
increase in earnings."
Tucker said Atty. Gen.
Robert Shevin had not
changed his mind on the dam
which was proposed last year
at a Marianna meeting.
He suggested teh engineers
should be examining the feas-
ibility of discontinuing dred-
ging on the river, not pro-
posing a new dam.
Dr. Skip Livingston, Flor-
ida State University biologist
who is also 'studying the
river, debated point by point
Col. Wilson's: contention the
upriver dam would not en-
danger the nutrient content of
the bay. '

free at eight o'clock and she
said, "Meno be free but me
no costa much," so my buddy
and I decided to hunt some
fresh air.
We waltzed on out and got
by the S.P. and started on a
tour of the downtown part of
Honolulu after dodging the
taxi drivers going to Wakiki
Beach.
We were passing by a
beautiful church and Coul-
ambe looked up and said,
"By Godfrey, there's a Cath-
olic church and I'm going
in." I said, "By Judas Priest,
I'm going with you."
I did every thing that he
did on the way in and we took
a seat and Antoine must have
given the priest the high sign


for he went over to a little
room on -the side and3 the
priest came over too. They
stayed there for several min-
utes and when my' buddy
came back I went over and
stayed in the room quite a
while, but the priest didn't
come so I gave up and went
on back. Well it was about
over so we crossed ourselves
two or three times and put
our hand in the holy water
and came on out. I never had
been in a Catholic church
before but I've always highly
respected it because they
seem to be in earnest about
what they believe and do and
some of my best friends were
Catholics.
Some how I felt more relax-
ed and humble when we got
b'.k .u-.t on the street and


things looked a little cleaner
and brighter. I asked Coul-
ambe what went on in the
little room and he said the
priest asked him, "How long
has it been since you confes-
sed, son?" When he told him
seven years, he asked, "My
God, why so long son?" and
he told him, "Ah, Father, you
know how it is."
Coulambe asked me what I
would have said in the little
room if the priest had come
and I said I was going to tell
him I was a poor boy a long
ways from home.
When eight o'clock came
along I was jammed into the

across the harbor to Iriquois
Point where my barrack was.

I think Baseball Commissioner Bowie Kuhn
was off base in his ruling that Henry Aaron
must play in Cincinnati Sunday. I don't think
it's Kun's responsibility to dictate the line-up
for the league managers.
It was proper, ILthink, that manager Eddie
Matthews should try to reserve for his Atlanta
fans the possible setting of a record which isn't
likely to be broken for many years.
By' now Aaron has likely hit his record
home run. Possibly he hit it on the Monday
night televised game) and he can now get back
down to normal again. The pressure of this
thing must be tremendous on Aaron. One
couldn't tell it though, from appearances at the
plate hit first at-bat of the season, when he hit
a four-bagger to tie Ruth's record.
I read Red Barber's account of Babe
Ruth's last three home runs in the Tallahassee
Democrat Sunday. Ruth hit his last three
homers in his last big league game. He was
with the old Boston Braves at the time and had
a rough night the night before. He was
scheduled to play on a Sunday afternoon and
didn't show up at the park.
The manager sent back to the hotel for
Ruth who was still in the bed hung over. The
manager asked Ruth to come dress out and
make at least one appearance at the plate for
the fans. Ruth was finally persuaded to come
to the stadium and play. His first trip to the
plate he hit a homer, became inspired and went
on to play the game, hitting three homers and'a
single in his last game in the majors.
If that manager hadn't been persistent,
Aaron would have set a new record last, year.

Speaking of records, the Legislature is'
setting a record .for getting down to business.
Already a bill has been passed in the
Senate to forbid smoking in public buildings
except in designated areas., One Legislator who
is a doctor from Miami and a regular
pipe-puffer, countered with a bill to make it
illegal to over-eat. The doctor reasoned, "It's
accepted that over weight causes heart prob-
lems and over weight comes from over
eating."
Now just a minute there, doc. Just because
.people don't. like to smell the stifling smoke
whicI4,p.Jten fills publicbuildings is no reason


Alady streaker became indignant over the
week end when Denver police made her sit in
the police station awaiting processing in her
streaking suit. The lady said it was embarras-
sing.
I suppose she didn't consider it quite so
embarrassing to run around naked in front of
hundreds of people on a crowded street.
No doubt it will be a long time before that
young lady goes streaking again.

We've got a tobacco spitting contest com-
ing up in Monticello, Arkansas on April 23. This
contest follows on the heels of the cow chip
tossing contest, held each year in Texas.
That ought to be quite an interesting
contest. After all, there is nothing more down
to earth than a group of tobacco chewers
spitting on the ground. Nothing more stimulat-
ing or appealing than watching a master
spitter at work.
We have some potential entries for, the
contest here in Port St. Joe. A fund should be
started now to send Kesley Colbert and Buddy
Floore to the tobacco spitting contest. They
have had the practice and come from a long
line of tobacco spitters.
I understand some of their charges on the
baseball team might be good entries in the
junior division. My impeachable source told me
the other day that, Bubba Harmon had held
back a spit from the mound for nearly an
entire inning. He had a batter at the plate and
just had to spit. He couldn't wait until he got
back to the dug-out. Harmon let loose toward
home plate and the umpire ducked, calling it a
strike. The spit (called a strike) retired the
opposing team's most dangerous batter and
won the game for the Sharks.
Bubba ought to go too.

By Sarah A. Riley
Guidance Counselor
Port St. Joe High School
Seniors and their parents
are encouraged to follow cer-
tain guidelines in choosing
commerical institutions
beyond the high school level.
Students considering enrol-
ling in commercial institu-
tions should be aware of the
school's accreditation
agency. If a child plans to
attend a commercial school,
be sure it is approved by the
accrediting agency in the stu-
dent's chosen profession or
occupation or the child may
not be able to practice such
occupation or obtain a job in
the occupation. If the occupa-
tion is one that requires a
license, make sure that this
is available and approved
upon completion of training.
Be aware of the following
"pressure tactics". A large


trol Supervisor could take
over the road patching crew
and equipment without over-
loading him; that in the event
this plan cannot be worked
out, that the Board consider
giving the Superintendent an
assistant. This matter. was
tabled for further study.
Commissioner Graham re-
quested permission for the
Road Department tq load dirt
on the School Board's trucks
at any time the County is
loading their trucks. This was
authorized.
Commission Graham made
a motion, second by Comm.
Whitfield and carried, that
the County pave the remain-
ing unpaved portion (175') of
First Street in Highland
View.
The Board authorized the
Gulf Coast. Electric Cooper-
ative to move 11 utility poles
from the west side, to the east
side of Saul's Creek county
road.
Commissioner Davis asked
about the duration of the
lease on Willis Landing. The
Attorney reported that this
lease is for five years.
Commissioner Davis dis-
cussed the drainage project
near the Jim Bagby property
on SRI'38r The 'Mosquilto
Control Supervisor advised
that the ditch draining the
pond at this site has been
completed; however, two
parcels of right of way must
be acquired before the entire
project is completed.
The Attorney announced
that there will be a free fish
fry Saturday, March 30, 1974
beginning at 12:30 p.m. in
connection with the official
opening and dedication pro-
gram of the Dead Lakes Re-
creation State Park. He
urged the Board to attend.
The Civil Defense Director
reminded the Board that the
Civil Defense generator con-
tinues to be stored in its
shipping crate out in the
weather and that it has now
reached its limit of moisture.
He said that something must
be done to get this equipment
in a building. The Board said
the architect is now working
on plans for a building for
this purpose.
The Mosquito Control Su-
pervisor reported that he has
attended two meetings for
fuel allocation officers as
directed by the Board.
E. A. Bandjough, City Com-
missioner, City of Wewahitch-
ka, requested the County to
replace the 18" pipe on the
Cochran Landing Road with a
pipe of sufficient size to han-
dle the additional flow of
water created after the con-
struction of the new high
school and the paving of the
road. The Road Department
will check on this request.
The Chairman urged each
member to attend the meet-
ing with the Department -of

Port St. Joe High School
has attained the status of
having its name in two
national magazines, thanks to

guidance counselor, and Grey

December to appear in an

two school-oriented maga-
zines, Scholastic Teacher and
School Shop. The two-page
spread endorses only the
Navy, but Miss Sanders says
that she personally endorses
all the armed forces. Who
knows-this. could be the,
start of something big for
your nationally recognized
high school!
The Poo't St. Joe High
School Band is suddenly very
interested in washing cars,
particularly your car. The
Band needs money (and who
doesn't?) and is willing to
work hard for it. The magni-
ficent musicians will clean
your go-buggy inside and out-
for a mere buck and a half.
The car wash will be held in
the vacant lot beside City
Hall on April 13. My car is
very grateful to the Band.
The Baseball Sharks are
still holding that great win-
ning streak. We are proud of
you, Sharks!
The FAMU Choir, and Jazz
Band that appeared before
the student body last Wednes-
day was warmly welcomed
by all of the students. The

E. L. Antley. Robert, who
graduated P.S.J.H.S. in 1965
is now on the FAMU teaching

and: Mark Valdes-Dapena;
Jim Moore was 'third place
winner:
In the third period 'Mass
Media class, the winners
were: Stan Kennedy," first
place; Tavia Copenhaver,
second place; Pat Jamison,
third place. Honorable men-
tion went to Robert Malcolm.
,The prom was a blast! The
Junior Class exceeded all my
expectations for "Moonlight
and Roses." The decorations
were very good, and the
band, "Eli," from Tallahas-
see, was fantastic. Miss Eva
Maddox, escorted by Martin
Adkison, president of the
Senior Class, led the Grande
March. Congratulations, Jun-
iors. Now I have at least one'
good memory of my senior
year.
A lot of credit for the great.


Social Security A Good

Investment Latta


Social Security is a good
investment, Robert Latta,
Social Security Representa-
tive for Gulf County said this
week.
In recent months, many
people have been raising the
question as to whether they
will pay a lot more in social
security taxes than they can'
ever expect to receive in
benefits, Latta continued.
There have been many
magazine and newspaper art-
icles that have statedthat an
individual can take the same
money he pays' in social
security taxes, invest it and
receive much more for his
money. In reaching this con-
clusion they compare the
amount that can be received
from such an investment to
the average amount an indi-
vidual receives' from retire-
ment benefits.' One'"bf:, the
flaws in this conclusion is
that a low percentage of
workers would actually

prom should go to Pam Par-
ker, Dawn Anchors and Cuy-
ler King for their many long
hours of hard work-so say
their classmates.
The Haiku is a form of
Japanese poetry which, the
Creative Writing class is
working on now. Debby Ben-
son, a sophomore, wrote the
following haiku:
The Sea
Foaming white breakers
Wash away my impressions
Sparkling blue waves roar.
Debby's haiku embodies
what is on everyone's mind
nowadays-the sea. In fact,
when 1the last bell rings
tomorrow afternoon, -spring
holidays will begin and the
call of the sea and the beach-'
es will be answered by ,hun-
dreds of students.

Crystal River 1,2 and 3.

Three reasons things

are going to get better.


Through the years, Florida
Power has been looked upon
as a leader in preserving the
quality of our environment as
well as the comfort of our
customers.
This, along with economic
reasons, caused us to convert
our coal-fueled Crystal River
units to oil.
When units 1 and 2 were
converted to oil, we might
have dismantled our coal
facilities.
We didn't.
And because we didn't,


we are prepared today.
with oil prices becoming
unbearably high, to restore
Crystal River 1 and 2 to coal
burning units.
What we need is an assured
supply of low sulphur coak..
In addition, nuclear
powered Crystal River 3 will be


coming on line in
early 1975.
It will help
hold the line
against the
pressure of
rising oil costs.

invest this much money; plus
they overlook the fact that
retirement is only one of four
different types of benefits
that social security pays.
If only retirement benefits
are considered, their conclu-
sion would be correct. But,
social security also pays
monthly survivors benefits,
monthly disability benefits
and Medicare benefits. This
means a worker and his
family have protection from
loss of income throughout
their lifetime and health in-.
surance at the time the
individual most likely needs
it.
When all the different types
of benefits are considered,
social security is worth much
more than most people real-



Search On

For SSI

Subjects

A planning, committee,
headed by Mrs. Jayne Sears
of Panama City, will soon
meet with local volunteers to
begin Project SSI Alert. The
purpose of Project SSI Alert
is to attempt to locate per-
sons in Gulf County that
might be entitled to the new
Federal Supplemental Secur-
ity Income payments.
The committee hopes the
volunteers can locate an
estimated 1000 persons in
Gulf County who might be
eligible. Contact the Social
Security Office located at
1316 Harrison Ave., Panama
City.


ize, Latta pointed out. The
average person receives
much more than he pays into
social security.
Latta concluded by inviting
anyone having a question
about social security to get in
.touch with the social security
office.
The office for this area is
located at 1316 Harrison Ave.,
Panama City. The telephone
number is 763-5331. The office
is open Monday through Fri-
