City Due 108,827 In Revenue



Sharing Funds In Fiscal Year '75


The City of Port St. Joe will
receive approximately $108,-
827 in Federal Revenue Shar-
ing Funds, it was learned
TI;,'. night at the regular
i,--itr., of the Board. The
money will be received dur-
ing fiscal 1975 which begins
on July .1 'of, this year..
'The Commission set up pri-
orities for use of the money
Tuesday night with nearly
half of the money set
. aside for 'the pending project
of rehabilitating the sewage
collection systein. This pro-
ject is expected to cost
around $300,000, since the
Commission 'is planning 'to.
take care of the estimated
sewage needs for the next 10
ye.rs
The C:r\ had set aside
$42,516 from last year's Rev-
enue Sharing money for tlie
sewer work and are adding
. $50,000 to the fund in the
corning year.
The Board also. set aside
$35,000 in the new budget of
Sharing funds to finish pay-
ing for the new fire station
and $20,000 for renovation of
the Police Department of-
fices.
CITATIONS GIVEN
A look at the Port St. joe
police report for the past
month gives evidence that
the City Commission meant
what it said when it ordered
a strict application of the law
in regards to the operation of
motorcycles.
According to the report for
last month, the Police De-
partment made several ar-
rests on charges of improper
use of a motor vehicle. Of the
arrests made, fines were le-
vied in 10 of the cases.
The City Commission re-
luctantly took the step be-
cause of the number of bikes
now being used in the city
and the dangers involved to
the riders and other motor-
ists.
Fines levied ranged from
$12.00 to $32.00.

Alligator

Evicted


Port st. Joe is a good place to
,live-- even for alligators and this
reptile left his city home with great
reluctance, according to Police Pa-
trolman James 'Graves and Street
Superintendent Dorton Hadden.
The six foot gator was located
in a storm sewer' in. front of the
Long Avenue Baptist Church Tues-
day by a group' of kids playing. The
police were called and Graves
came to the rescue. When he saw
the size of the beast, he quickly
called to Hadden for help..
SGraves and Hadden roped the
animal, with both staying away
from his business end, and remov-
ed him from his place in the storm
sewe', where the gator was merely
enjoying a sun bath.
The gator was, taken to St.
Joseph State Park by park.rangers
where he was turned loose in a
pond at the park.

Reduced Rates for


Summer Sewage


Port St. Joe water and
sewer customers will receive
a break in their sewer rates
charged by the City during
the summer months again
a this year.
The City Commission
agreed Tuesday night to in-
stall a modified sewage
charge method during the
summer months, to allow
customers a more free use of
water.
Sewage charges are made
in Port St. Joe by charging a
percentage of the water rate.
The summer charge method
will calculate the customer's
average sewage charge over
the past seven months. The
average monthly charge is
the one which will be applied
during the summer months.
"This allows people to use
City water for lawn and
flower watering without be-
ing 'penalized for the extra
sewer charge", Commission-
er James B. Roberts, who is
in charge of the Water and
Sewer Department, said.
The only catch in the deal
is that those water customers
who wish to take advantage
of the reduced sewer rates


must call the City Hall and
ask to be included in the
special billing method.

Funds Set

for Camp

At Park
Rep. William J. Rish noti-
fied The Star this week that
funds have been budgeted for
construction of a youth camp
at St. Joseph State Park.
The State Park now has no
facilities for youth groups to
camp at the site. Rish said
there was a demand for such
facilities for Boy Scout,
school and church groups
which would now be met.
Rish said he was notified
by letter by the Department
of Natural Resources this
week the funds had been
budgeted by the DNR.
The site for the youth 'camp
has been selected and con-
struction should be started
about mid-summer with
completion scheduled by
early fall.

Beverage Issue On Ballot



Voters Will



Go to Polls



On Tuesday

Port St. Joe voters will go to the polls
Tuesday to cast their ballot for two City
Commissioners and to express their
wishes in the matter of expanded sale
hours for alcoholic beverages within the
city limits.
In the Commission race, James B.
Roberts is on the ballot, unopposed, for his
second term as Commissioner in Group
Three. In Group Four, Paul Ramsey and
Gerald Sullivan are opposing each other
.for the seat being vacated by George
Wimberly, Jr.
Both Commission seats are for two
year terms which will begin with the first
meeting of the Board in June.
STRAW BALLOT
While voters will cast their ballots for
City Commission candidates on voting
machines, a paper straw ballot will be
provided for voters to express themselves
on the question of expanded sale hours for
alcoholic beverages in the city limits.
There are three questions on the
ballot, which will merely get a sampling of
the opinion of the people. The Commission
is not bound by the Charter to endorse and
make into law, any decision reached on
the ballot.
All three questions were posed by the
dealers in beverages and bar, operators in
the city. The beverage merchants are
bearing the expense of the straw ballot.
One question would allow bar rooms to
remain open until 1:00, a.m., Monday
through Saturday. City ordinance now
requires them to close at midnight, while
state law allows the bars to remain open
until 1:00 a.m. throughout the county.
A second question would allow bars to
open for business at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday
arid remain open until 1:00 a.m.. They are
now required to close all day Sunday.
A third, option would allow grocery
stores now selling beer and wine to sell the
beverages on Sunday.
POLLING HOURS
Polls for the Tuesday election will be
located at the Fire Station in the City Hall.
Voting hours will be from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00
p.m.
A sample ballot of the straw ballot
may be inspected on page two of this
week's issue.

Sure Way to Kill


Ambulance Service


It shouldn't take a genius to
figure out that the action by ,the
County Commission last week con-
cerning ambulance service for Gulf
County means that we will have no
ambulance service after Comforter
Funeral Home is forced by state
regulations to quit offering his
equipment and men for county use,
We say the county will have no
ambulance service because we are
almost certain the people of the
county will not vote for a mill' and a
half in taxes to support an ambu-
lance service. It's too much money
to begin with and too much service
planned in the second place. Gulf
County cannot justify a $100,000
annual budget for ambulances.'
We believe the County Com-
mission has something else up their
sleeve in case the question of extra
taxes is disposed 'of-something
which won't beb so elaborate 'but
will be adequate. The problem is,
after the results of the vote are
known in September, it will be too
near the January 1 deadline for
people of the County to be gparan-
teed a continuity of service. The
application of a new plan into "6
working program will take too long
and in the meantime, the present
service will have been ended.
We, don't envy the. County
Commission their job in this prob-
lem. The Legislature limits the


amount of millage the county may
levy and is, threatening to reduce
even that amount. People cry for
more and more government ser-.
vices every day, apparently in the
deluded opinion that someone .else
is paying the bill for them, .Any
way you cut it, ambulance service
is going to cost the county several
dollars-dollars that. are not now
just lying around loose, merely
waiting to be used.
We don't appreciate being.
teased about this thing and made to
,think it is our' fault' the county
doesn't have the proper facilities
for the care of the injured. But if
i(and it surely will) the referendum
fails to give the Board authority to
levy extra taxes for ambulances
and operators,.those of us who vote
againstt it will catch the blame for
no service, :, ,
If our memory serves us \cor-
rectly, it was Commissioner Walter
Graham who observed when the
question of the referendum came
,p, "The people elected us to make
those decisions, and now we are
trying to give them the job they
elected us to do." Those are our
feelings. We elected the Board tq
olve these problems and we expect
them.to do so in a manner we can,
live.. with. We cannot live with a
$100,000 annual bill for ambula ne
service.. : "'""i .
'"


On Second Thought


Most of us beleaguered tax
payers probably sighed with relief
over the current move in the
Florida Legislature to reduce the
number of mills the state will allow
the county, the school board and
the various cities to levy in proper-r
ty taxes. Currently, this limit is 10
mills for each of the political
subdivisions. One thought would
reduce this amount to eight and
another seven. .
At first blush this sounds like
*the finest kind of an idea. Everyone
is in favor of reducing their tax
load or passing it on to some-
one else, or anything to keep it
from coming out of the pocket of
old number one.
On second thought, we had
more than, a second thought. It
wasn't until th6 mill cap of 10 mills
was established that we really
began to pay through the nose for
property taxes. The application of
the mill cap served one good
purpose, it caused the valuations
against property to be raised to q
realistic level and all of a sudden it
was learned the easiest way to
bring in a few more tax dollars was
to raise the valuation by a couple of
percentage points.
And waiting in the wings were
the bureaucrats-the "phantom


government" we hear so much
about abolishing now-adays--and
the regulations 'began to. pile up. If
a county didn't do this, they. didn't
get these state tax monies. If they
didn't provide this service, they
couldn't get matching funds: for
that one. On and on it has gone,
until all control over local. matters
have mostly been surrendered as
well as the financing responsibilj-
'ties.
Maybe we're getting cynical in
our advancing years, but it seems
to us the trend isn't to providing a
better service than we are able to
finance locally so much as it is
placing the power of administra-
tion and veto power over the
application of funds to the state,
rather than keeping it right here at
home where we can rub elbpws
with our keeper of the purse.
(You'll recognize that the' hand on
the purse strings is the most
powerful.) It's easier for us to vote
a servant out of office on a local
level for failure to do our wishes
than it is to rid ourselves of one
who must be voted on a state-wide'
level.
Like we say; at first blush the
reduced taxing power soundsgood.
On second thought, we're'" nt so
sure.

.LETTERS
to the

EDITOR


Dear Editor:
i In the past few weeks there
fhas been a lot of criticism of
'the Sheriff's Auxiliary:
SIf these people who are
,critical of these men would
just talk to the Sheriff or his
j.staff they would find out that
' these men do not get paid for
'*what they do. It is all volun-
tary, with no strings attach-
ed. It is for the people of our
'county that they. work for,
helping in any way possible.
The critics don't know how


many hours the men are
away frpm their families and
how many hours of sleep they
lose again for the people of
the county, voluntarily.
When these men are need-
qd they don't ask, "is he rich
or poor, black or white, or
what religious faith". As long
as the need is in the county
they just go and help in any
way they can and stay' as
long as they are needed.
When any one or all of the
Auxiliary is called upon they
don't ask how much is this
going to cost me or what am
I going to get out of it.
because when they were or-
ganized, it was voluntary and
still is.
The county should be proud
of their Sheriff and his staff
for helping to organize an


'Auxiliary to help them be
cause they are .only 'humai
and cannot be everywhere i
all times.
What the auxiliary does, it
dlops through the Sheriff'
office and is up' an4 aboy
board for 'the people of op:
county with no .strings at
tallied and'no pay' involved.
'opr the people'that criticize
the Sheriff and his staff and
the Auxiliary, I hope they
never have to call on them
But, if and when they should
they will be there to help an.
.way possible as lqpg as they
are needed voluntarily.
So please, critics, instead
of knocking these men, ask
how you may help them
make our county a better
place in which to live for us
?nd our children in the fu
ture.
The best way to help is
through prayer and moral
support.
Name Withheld Upon
Request.

TALLAHASSEE Secre-
tary of State Richard (Dick)
Stone announced today that
the annual list of corpora-
tions being dissolved by pro-
clamation will be released
shortly. The names of corpor-
ations on the dissolve list are
those that have failed to
comply with Florida law and
pay fees due..
This newspaper will be
publishing the list of delin-
quent corporations in its legal
section in the very near
future.
"Under state law these,
delinquent corporations will
have a specified ariount of


. 1


time to set things right with
the state before dissolution
becomes final," Stone said.
"However, it is the respon-
sibility of the corporation or
its representative to seek re-
instatement. Once the list is
published, the Department of
State and its Corporate Div-
ision have fulfilled the re-
quirements of the law," Stone
added.
"If your corporation should
appear on the list or any


questions arise, all questions
should be directed in writing
to the Department of State,

.President Nixon has released the tran-
.. rilpts o h@ .tape. and still those who say he is
Sg4ity of,~ yong-doing say there is no proof to
the contrary.
: h. havept read the transcript, so I couldn't
i p" rightly say whether they prove his innocence or
underscore his guilt, but they have at least
Given the daily press something else to write
about and the TV something to put on the tube.
One thing I have noticed, though, with the
.: reports thus far. I don't think those who are
offering opinions to the President's position
have read the entire transcript either. It
appears they have gone to the dates on which
Sthe investigation committee's claims for im-
pe'chment reason hangs, and even then, the
.ppiions of innocence or guilt are still different.
The problem is, the tapes probably don't
reflect what was said yesterday in the hall, or
S'arlir on the day in question before the
i *mneting .convened, etc. Words are said and the
gh expansive meaning is given by the media in
er parenthesis, which may be entirely wrong.
;p ."Personally, unless it says somewhere in the
r; tapes in so many words that the President
ea. actually did what is charged against him, the
pe language reported on the tapes is too ambigu-
rs, ous to convict a man on.
Even so, if the Constitution's guarantee of
a. man's rights had been activated in this
matter -months ago, the matter of the Presi-
dent's innocence or guilt would have been
resolved some time last year and the matter of
Watergate wouldn't have conveniently hung
with us until election time.

I was talking to Sheriff Raymond Lawrence
the other day about--the unpleasant task of
dragging for and recovering the body of the
man who drowned in Depot Creek last week.
Sheiiff Lawrence was full of praise for the
men who give up their time to retrieve an
object they will smell, taste and see in their
dreams for many days to come, only to receive
the satisfaction of civic duty performed.
He said the Sheriff's office could use a few
more men with the knowledge of search and
rescue, and the know-how with scuba diving,
ptc. '"The men we have perform a good job, but
they need some help and relief."
I gave him the name of Dr. Bob King to
contact.as one of his scuba divers.
I know. you didn't know it, but Bob is anr
accomplished scuba diver. At least, he has'
accomplished the matter of completing the
I purse: recently offered by Gulf Coast Commun-
ity College, taught in the swimming pool of
George Holland's motel at Mexico Beach. Bob
came very. near failing the course when he
"graduated" by attempting a dive on the old
sunken "lumber ship out in the Gulf. Bob got
down and had to come right back up: his air
, tank came loose and was slipping down his
n, back. Bob nearly failed when it turned out he
t was too chicken to go back down after that
Minor mishap.
s Anyhow, if the Sheriff gets a report of
e someone being drowned in a swimming pool
r. and the body can't be located, Bob is checked
t- out for that kind of duty.

S It looks as if the State of Florida is trying
Y to steal the thunder of the nation's Watergate
scandal. I guess the powers that be in the state
Sfee that if a mere scandal can make an
S apartment complex like Watergate a household
word throughout the world, think what four
k scandals can do for Florida in publicity! All
i those millions spent in past years through the
r old'Develppment Commission were just wasted
s when one considers all that was needed was a
juicy scandal to let people know about the joys
of living in the Sunshine State.
l .Not only has a grand jury indicted former
Education Commissioner Floyd Christian and
U,S. Senator Edward Gurney, but they are
working hard at searching out the dirty linen
which might be pushed under the beds of Fredt
0 (Bud) Dickinson, Comptroller and Insurance
Commissioner. Tom O'Malley. Just for insur-
ance, bank records of two former state
senators and a close friend of Lt. Gov. Tom
Adams, are also suspect.
It'll probably get more interesting before
we see any oil poured on the troubled waters.
But, oil on the waters of Florida cause even
more problems, don't they?

on record Tuesday against a
proposed dam in the Apala-

The resolution will be for-

corps wants to construct a
dam and levee in the river to
get it to a depth suitable for
vessel traffic.
Attorney General Robert

the Cabinet meeting but
submitted a letter outlining
his objection to the project.
The Apalachicola is "Flor-

Boaters Are
Warned On
Safety Rules
With the summer season
moving in rapidly, Sheriff
Raymond Lawrence wishes
to remind all boat enthusiasts
to operate their vessels in a
safe manner.
"Already this season, we
have received complaints
concerning persons operating
their boats in a careless
manner," the Sheriff stated,
"this past week two families
were nearly swamped when a
larger boat came charging
down the Intracoastal Water-
way completely disregarding
the wake it left behind."
In addition to being unsafe,

If you're getting


your home ready for


another Florida summer,

here's help.


If you're planning to buy air conditioning, or if
you already own it and are planning to use it.
here are some things you should know.
What type do you need?
This depends on whether you intend to air
condition your entire home. a major portion of
it, or one room.
For one room. you'll want a room unit. For
larger areas you can choose between a room
unit and a central system.
What size do you need?
This depends on a couple of things. Well
shaded, well insulated areas require
minimum cooling. As low as 20 BTU's per
square foot.
Unshaded windows a,-,.-
poor insulation can double 11ii.-
amount of air conditioning 4
needed. A reputable air
conditioring dealer will
check your home and
recommend the proper
size and type of '...
equipment for you. '-
Or. Florida Power will .
be glad to help you if you're
unable to get the informatico-,
What's most economical to ''
operate?
Just remember, the higher the efficiency
of a unit, the lower the operating cost.
There's a simple formula for this.
All air conditioning manufacturers
rate their units in terms of British Thermal
Units (BTU's). and the electricity required
for the unit in terms of watts
To find out the efficiency'of a unit. just
divide the BTU's by the watts. The unit that
gives the most BTU's per watt has the highest
efficiency ratio and is the most economical to
operate.
The more efficient units today produce
from 7 to 10 BTU's per watt. so make sure the
unit you're considering falls in this range. the
higher the better.
Selecting the right unit is just the
beginning.
Next, be sure the system is properly
installed. Keep the outdoor section clear of
plants and obstructions.
Also be sure that walls, ceilings and
floors are properly insulated. Insulation can
pay big dividends for a long time. Air
conditioning ducts should be tight and well
insulated.


Fan and thermostat.
A fan setting of "Auto" conserves energy and
gives best humidity control. "On" gives more
uniform air motion, sound level and
room-to-room temperature.
Thermostat: avoid using more electricity
than necessary by setting the thermostat too
low. For maximum economy. choose the
highest comfortable temperature.
Filters and return air grill.
Replace filters frequently. Clogged filters
make the unit work harder than it needs to
And don't block air flow with furniture
or drapes.


Doors and windows and wiring.
Close openings and seal cracks around
doors and windows as well as openings into
atrics and fireplaces
Use properly sized wiring
And place the condenser where it can
get free air flow Avoid putting it in your
garage or other improperly ventilated area
Away from home.
One day or more. turn the unit off or set
thermostat at 5 to 10 degrees above normal
summer setting with fan on "Auto" for mildew
protection and quick comfort when you
return
In these days of rising prices and energy
shortages, it's important that you use your
electric equipment as efficiently as possible.
So if you've any questions at all. just call or
come in to your Florida Power office

Kitchen

Chatter
For the second article in
the series of Energy-Saving
Ideas, please continue read-
ing for many useful ideas
regarding the usage of the
electric range.
1. Use proper cooking uten-
sils; the right size pan for
proper size unit, (a large pan
or small unit or vice-versa
gives poor results), flat-bot-
tomed, and tight fitting
covers gives heat distribution
and saves energy.
2. Plan menus ahead using
oven for several dishes at
once or electric housewares
for small portions or meal-in-
one dishes.
3. Use correct tempera-
tures, do not peek in oven
(lengthens cooking time),
and reduce surface tempera-
ture when possible.
4. Defrost frozen tempera-
tures (when possible) and
begin cooking cycle in cold
water rather than hot water
(from electric water heater.)
5. Use heat wisely, turning
units off to use stored energy,
plan preheating time and do
not heat kitchen with range
oven.
For a delightful oven meal,
serve your favorite meat loaf
recipe, herb rice, green bean
casserole and egg custard,
(oven temperature 350
degrees).
HERB RICE
1 Stick margarine or butter
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon minced onion
1 can of beef soup con-
somme
1 cup long grain rice
3 bay leaves
Into a quart size casserole,
place butter, onion and salt;
then into oven until butter
melts. Remove casserole and
stir together ingredients. Add
rice and beef of consomme
and fill can one-half full of
water and combine in casse-
role. Cover and bake one
hour at 350 degrees. Remove
from oven-arrange bay
leaves on surface and re-
cover for five to six minutes.
Serve hot. Will yield six ser-
vings.
GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE
1 can cream of mushroom
soup
t2 cup sliced almonds
2 pkgs. of french styled
cooked green beans
(barely tender)
'. teaspoon salt
1 cup french fried onions
Into a sauce pan, place '2
cup water, salt and green
beans and boil until beans
are barely tender. Drain and
add soup plus one can of
water, and sliced almonds
stirring all ingredients till
thoroughly combined. Place
into a 11 x 2 utility dish and
sprinkle with french fried
onions and paprika. Place in
350 degree oven for 35 min-
utes.

heat in the north may not
survive a summer month in
Florida so selection of proper
annuals becomes very im-
portant.
Luckily we have at least a
half dozen outstanding sum-
mer annuals which will with-
stand the worst our summer
has to offer with only a mini-
mum of care.
For summer color stick to
zinnias, marigolds, periwin-
kle, salvia, portulaca and
celosia. All of these flowers
will reward you with brilliant
summer color.
Madagascar periwinkle is a
perennial in south Florida but
is grown as an annual in
north and west Florida. This
attractive flowering plant
thrives where most plants
would soon perish. It with-
stands the driest sites and
full sun and is so well adapt-
ed that it easily escapes from
cultivation. Periwinkle re-
quires little attention and
provides a mass of white or
rose-pink flowers throughout
the summer. The foliage is
also attractive and the plant
can be used as a ground
cover. It can be easily grown
from seed or cuttings.
Another excellent summer
flower is portulaca, also call-
ed rose moss. This small
annual, hardly six inches
high, is unsurpassed for bril-
liant white, yellow, orange,
rose and scarlet flowers.
Flowers may be single or
double and resemble small
roses. Plants bloom for only
a few weeks so seed should
be sown every month for
,continuous blossoms.
For brilliant masses of red
or purple try salvia or scarlet
sage. The one to two foot
plants produce dense spikes
of scarlet or bluish flowers up
until the Fall. Plant red sal-
via in front of a dark green
or gray background for an
outstanding display of color.
Perhaps the most popular
summer annual is the zinnia.
Zinnias are now available in
a remarkable variety of
sizes, flower forms and
colors. Almost every color is
available-white, yellow,

rose, crimson, orange, sal-
mon, etc. and even a red and
white. Dwarf varieties only
six to eight inches tall are
available as well as the giant
types having flowers seven
inches across. Zinnias grow
well even on poor soils if
planted in full sun and water-
ed when necessary. The
major problem with zinnias
is a disease-powdery mil-
dew. If planted in full sun
where leaves dry out quickly,
the disease problem is mini-
mized.
Almost as diverse a flower
as zinnia is the marigold.
These plants are almost
trouble-free and are available
in dwarf six inch types to
giant four footers. Colors are
mainly, yellows and gold to
oranges. Marigolds make
good cut flowers and colorful
borders and edgings. Culture
is very easy as heat, drought
and pests are seldom a
problem.

CARD OF THANKS
I would like to take this
opportunity to thank every-
one for their flowers, cards
and prayers. Also thanks to
the nurses and staff at Muni-
cipal Hospital and to Dr.
Simpson for their concern.
Winnie Todd


Circuit Judge Larry Smitfi
spoke to the Port St. Joe
Rotary Club last Thursday at
their regular meeting,. using
as his subject the observance
of Law Day, which was being
noted in Gulf County last
Thursday.
Judge Smith stated he had
not been on the bench for
very long, but already he felt
impressed with the general
attitude of juries in his Cir-
cuit. "They give a good ac-
count of themselves and work
hard to arrive at a fair
verdict", the Juror said.
"When one considers the
method with which we select
juries, it is amazing at the
fine results we receive from
their efforts", the Judge said.
'In Florida, jurors are se-
lected at random. All are
registered voters and are
selected from the voting list
at random, by number.

The Circuit Judge admitted
there were some faults in the
system, but observed, "the
benefits far outweigh the
faults. ''
Judge Smith said the hard-
est problem which faces the
application of criminal jus-


Pursuant to Chapter 197.062, Florida Statutes, notice is
hereby given that on the 31st day of May, 1974, at twelve
o'clock noon, tax sale certificates will be sold on the following
described lands to pay the amount due for taxes herein set
opposite the same, .together with all cost of such sale, and all
advertising, sale to be held at the Gulf County Courthouse at
Port St. Joe, Countyof Gulf, Florida.


tice today is the problem of
criminal correction; what to
do with the criminal after
conviction. Smith said he felt
changes were needed in pen-
alty application. "Too many
of our punished criminals
return to a life of crime after


their stretch in prison. We
need a better percentage of
rehabilitation." He noted that
over 70 percent of those re-
leased from prison return in
a short while.
Guest of the club was Rod-
ney Herring of Wewahitchka.

Florida Has



Most Wildfires


MIAMI A lovely weight watcher is
Hillman' The 106 pound jockette from
Florida hopes to be riding her share
when Calder Race Course opens for
meeting


It is an awesome and dis-
turbing fact that Florida has
the highest incidence of wild-
fires in the nation every year
"The major reason is a.
combination of cii:'urru.
stances, including the slate's
unusually long dr, season
and the old story-people,"
said Ed Sweeten, Fire Con
trol Chief, Division of Fores.
try, Florida Department of
Agriculture and Consumer
Services. "People either
carelessly or intentionally set
fires '
Unincorporated small com-
munities suffer the most
through lack of any organized
fire protection agency This
is why the Dzvision iof For-
estry works very hard o set.
Pup, train and help equip

GCCC


In fact, in each county
some confusion must surely
arise as to whom to call to
outlying fires: municipal fire
units, volunteer, departments
or Division of Forestry? This
becomes a crucial problem.
when small communities are
not really within municipal
fire protection range. Rough-
ly 60 to 70 per cent of all
organized fire calls are to'
fight brush, grass and woods
fires.
A wise decision was made
by the 1972 Legislature which
allowed for the preparation of
a Comprehensive County Fire
Plan for any county that
would like to improve its fire
protection system. The pas-
sage of law creating the
County Fire Plan is found in
Florida Statutes 125.27, Sec-
tion 2.
This law authorizes the
Division of Forestry to enter
into separate agreements
with interested counties to
provide .for a centralized
communications and other
fire control services on a cost
reimbursable basis. The

shop facilities of the Division

'ties, provided they supplied
personnel to man the neces-
sary positions.
If. a county desires to enter
into an agreement with the
Do%. ior the first step. that
will be taken is to conduct a
comprehensive fire survey.
This survey is conducted for
the county by the Division at
no cost to the county.
The survey nfust include a
thorough fire hazard analysis
.reporting the number of
buildings in the county, the
,structural characteristics of
each and the cargo hazard
routes to each building. It
must be followed up by a,
Fire Extinguishing Resource
plan.
After the survey is comrn-
pleted, it is the Division's job
to submit a set of recommen-
dations to the Board of Coun-
ty Commissioners. This infor-
mation will have additional
value in helping the county
qualify for RFD Title IV
funds when Title IV is fund-
ed.
In any event, the Division's
recommendations would help T
a county establish unified fire n
protection for the first time.
"No county, of course,
could provide a model pro -
gram to begin with, but any t
county, utilizing existing
resources, can begin on a
.minimal basis, building onto
its fire plan as its economic
means permit," Sweeten
said.


A Team For Tallahassee

TALLAHASSEE Tom Adams won't be running alone during the next few
months as he campaigns for governor of Florida. His wife, Fran, was at his
side when he officially declared his candidacy, and he says she'll be beside
him right through election day. United Press International caught this shot of

Among the participants were Rep.
Wayne Mixson, chairman of the House
Agriculture Committee, Marianna,
and Rep. Billy Rish, Port St. Joe.
Conner explained that the weekend


been very busy for the past
few weeks preparing a num-
ber of dramatic presenta-
tions. The presentations were,
given on May 1st, 2nd, and
6th before an audience of 200.
Although the presentations
were necessarily a team ef-
fort by the class, each indivi-
dual was responsible for his
own costumes and props. The
speech class would like to'
thank those who contributed
to the productions, by lending
a piece of cloth or jewelry or
whatever else was needed in
the making of a costume.
The class would also like to
thank Christopher Davis for
assuming the responsibilities
of, Chief Stage .'A. ter for
all the presentations. No one
but him could have made the
change of scenes so fluid.
From out'of the chaos of the
backstage area Chris produc-
ed each scene as it was
needed by each different pre-
sentation.
The first dramatic presen-
tation was an excerpt from
THE MERRY WIVES OF
WINDSOR, by A.,- r.. .
Donna Richards and Janet,
Sutton gave, very convincing
performances as Mistress
Page and Mistress Ford, res-
pectively. Tad Matthews was
hilarious as the : :. r .
knight, Falstaff. ;:..-..
actors were Benjamin Gib-
son, as Master Ford; Chris
Davis, as Caius; David-
F. /r- as Sir Hugh Evans;
Mike i t.r.ti..."' as Master
Page; Lester Reeves and
Ricky Hamm, as servants;
and Carl Guilford, as Robin.
Katrina .:'.. as Mrs.
Jones, and Napoleon Hill, as
Roger, performed with vigor
their stage adaptation of the
shortstory, "Thank You,
Ma'am." Napoleon was pro-
perly subdued as the shamed
purse-snatcher, and Katrina
came through as the indig-
nant but motherly "victim."
The street scene was sup-
ported by Tavia Copenhaver,
David Player, Tad Matthews,
Larry Dawson, Mitchell Gar-
land, and Mike Register.
Perhaps the best known
and least understood literary
work in the world is HAM-
LET by Shakespeare, Carl
Guilford presented Hamlet's
Soliloquy with articulate, if
melodramatic, style.
One of the funniest shows
on television is "Sanford and
Son." Mitchell Garland, as
Fred Sanford, and Larry
Dawson, as Lamont, were
even more hilarious in their
stage adaptation of the pro-
gram than the television ac-
tors. The parts of Maria and
Julio were played by Donna
Pitts and Lester Reeves.
Another humorous (to say
the least) dramatic presenta-
tion was "Kill Class." Tad
Matthews played the suver-

tough soldier, Sergent Ben
son. David Player, as Private
Pryor, portrayed a reluctant
volunteer who put his foot in
his couth once too often
Supporting actors, the rest o
the volunteers, were all the
male students of the second
period speech class.
Tavia Copenhaver gave
spine-tingling performance as
Mrs. Stevenson in "Sorry
Wrong Number." Despite nu
merous technical difficulties
encountered in the production
of the one-act .play by Louise
Fletcher, the presentation
was a terrifying success.
The all-time favorite
CINDERELLA, was also
dramatized, with Salina Rob
erson playing the title role
and Christopher Davis as
John Elton (the modern
Prince Charming). Juanise
Griffin played Deb; one of the
hateful step-sisters, and Mir-
iam Harrison was Annie, the
other step-sister. Pam
Reeves, with a cackle on the
edge of her voice, was a
great evil step-mother. Cin-
dy's fairy godmother was
played by Jacque Ard. The
prom scene was supported by
all the rest of the second
period speech class.
In addition to the, dramatic
acting, Larry Dawson pre-
sented a dramatic reading.
The poem was entitled "King
Heroin," and was written by
Larry. It is the saga of a
slave to the great King
Heroin, a story that has
become so typical today. Per-
haps more people should lis-
ten to what Larry told of the
drug's evils.
After the presentations, the
speech class gave Mrs. Biggs
one dozen red roses. The
flowers are only a very small
token of our gratitude to the
Big Red Machine for all that
she has done for all of us.
The presentations were a
lot of work: rehearsals, mak-
ing costumes, getting props,
and all the myriad little
things that go into any pro-
duction of this type. But we
all have our own rewards,
and we all know that our
labor was justified.
There's always something
happening out here. Big
things and little things. Read
about them in The Star.
