EDITORIALS...


There's hardly a one of us adults
who don't envy the 109 seniors grad-
uating from Port St. Joe High School
Tuesday night of next week, as well
as the thousands of other seniors
who are receiving their diplomas all
-over the nation.
We don't particularly envy them
their youth, although that would bp
'nice to recapture. We do envy them
their opportunity. It's almost a trite
expression each year to pump the
. -graduates up with the opportunity
Which awaits them in our world to-
.- day. We can see, however, that the
S',tatement is not so trite anymore.
Even in this day of automation,
the space age, the age of machines
'doing the work supposedly, it will '
' still be necessary for the graduates
ato put forth an effort to grasp the

We don't know whether to pinch
ourself to see if we're dreaming or
don't do it and live on in bliss.
The Legislature-both houses--
have come up with state budgets
which show no new taxes and even
a surplus at the end of the year.
SThe unbelievable part is the propos-
ed budgets have plenty of "whipped
cream" in them to go along with the
beans and bread
The present financial condition
of the state is so good, the Legisla-
tors are even apologizing for not cut-
ting taxes in this budget year of plen-
ty. I we can believe what we read
about our Legislators, though, a tax
cut is in the wind next year.
Not all the Legislators think

S Well, it looks like the Russians,
did it to us again. First they carted
off all of our wheat, at' bargain
prices some say. And now it devel-
'ops that they apparently hoodwinked
us at the bargaining table on the mat-
ter of arms limitations..
Columnist Joseph Alsop ob-
seryes that the U.S. agreed to, limit
itself to 600 submarine-launched
nuclear missiles. The Soviet Union
will be permitted to have 950 such
missiles, because at the time of the
talks the Soviet missiles were said to
.be shorter-ranged. This presumedly
made them less effective. After this
agreement was reached, the Soviet


plums offered them by our changing
technology and way of life.,
Pe ole say it's impossible for a
person to become a millionaire in
our day. They say taxes prevent
this. But there's so many more ex-
citing things to do and accomplish
in our time and our future, that be-
commin a 'millionaire is almost an
anticlimax. "
SWhen one stops to, think that
the average citizen right here 'in our
present hour has so many /more lux-
uries than even millionaires had 20
or 30 years ago, it really gives us
a sense of excitement to imagine
what's ahead. /
And today's graduates will be
right in the midst of a good part of
these exciting things.

v Taxes ?


alike, .however, \as Marshall Harris,
the liberal from' Miatmi says he sees
a need for new taxes next year.
With the budget, which will
range somewhere from the $2.275
billion planned by the House' to the
$2.65 billion advocated.by the Senate,
will finance the state's needs, give
pay raises to employees, provide
for more employees, give more money
for the schools, provide a large chunk
of money for Interstate highways
and several other "one shot" capital
expenditures and leave a little in the
kitty for the following year.
That's the way it ought to be.
While we have the money build what
we need, then when money gets tight
give us a little tax break boys. We'll
appreciate it.


Union tested a submarine-launched
nuclear' missile with a range of 4,500
miles-longer than .ny in the U.S.
arsenal.
It doesn't look like Uncle Sam
is a very good poker player, and the
stakes ate about as high as they can
get. Add to this\the powerful congres-
sional opposition to proposed levels
of defense expenditures, which in-
clude the development of such things,
as a new and more effective nuclear
striking force at sea, and you've got
a worsened combination of foolish-
ness. It is time we got .our heads
screwed on straight while we still
have them.


After the launching of the
first Russian satellite', our
schools began to gear up to
provide, a newer emphasis on
'scholarship. However, in the
rush to provide- special
instruction for the gifted,
some schools have not
bothered to make certain,
necessary distinctions.
Actually: there are all
types of "gifted" children.
Roughly speaking, their
talents fall into three cate-
gories: academic aptitudes,
,creativity, and leadership.
Although some fortunate
%youngsters excel in all three
areas, a great number are
outstanding, in only one. It is
a halfway measure, there-
fore, to set up one program
for all talented children.
The budding musician who
has no proclivity whatsoever
toward science needs a
different type of handling
from the mathematical
genius '/with a high I.Q. And
the well-liked boy who is
running for president of the
student council, but is not
particularly brilliant or crea-
tive, needs another kind of
program to suit his talents.
To underscore this point,'
many business executives
confess that they hated
school and some even
proudly declare that they
never finished high school. A
study by Dr.1 V. H. Goetzel
former president of the
National Associaiton for.
Gifted Children, bears this
out. With the assistance of his
wife,' Dr. Goetzel has been
looking into the childhood
adjustments of 500 celebri-
ties. He notes that such gifted
people as Mark Twain,
Grover Cleveland, Winston
- Churchill, and scores' of
others disliked school and
misbehaved in the classroom.
-Obviously there has always
been a problem in meeting
the' peculiar needs of the
talented nonconformist.


But many believe that the
schools can do so, if they
overhaul their conventional
programs and set up chal-
lenges for creative thinkers.
It is claimed, for instance,
that educators put too much
store 'on I.Q. tests, thus
depreciating the truly crea-
tive child who becomes so
bored by these examinations
that he does poorly 'on them.
J. O'Conner the well-known
specialist in aptitude testing,
has some interesting observa-
tions on the "brilliant fail-
ure." In studies conducted at
the, Massachusetts Institute
of Technology, he and his
aides discovered that student'
success increased as the
number of strong aptitudes
went up, until a maximum of
four or five was reached.
'After that, they had increas-
ing difficulty.' The theory is
that the seeds of later failure
are planted early in school
when "the child who suc-
ceeds easily at everything is
highly praised and never
learns to work." Perhaps,
too, the difficulty is due to
the pull of so many interests
in so many different direc-
"tions on tlhe proverbial
jack-of-all-trades.
Thus, the problem of
providing special education
for the gifted is most
complicated. Very few public
school systems have ever
met this challenge adequate-
ly. At best, they have settled
for either of two broad
answers-acceleration or
enrichment. In actual prac-
tice neither method has ever
been completely satisfactory;
but more on this subject, in
next week's column.

For do-it-yourself garden
ers, here are a few simple
ideas you can use at home foi
propagation of your orna
mental.
The beds, benches anc
seedflats used for commer
cial plant propagation are too
large for home use but man3
small units can be set-up
using materials you probably
have hidden in your garage.
Aquariums make' idea
propagation units. Place al
least an inch of gravel in th(
tank bottom for "drainage 0o
water from the overlying
media. A 3-4 inch layer ol
coarse sand, sphagnum moss
or a half and half mixture ol
peat and perlite or othei
propagating. ;medium is
placed on top of the gravel
Moisten the medium and
insert your, cuttings or sew
seed. A glass or plastic covei
on top of the aquarium will
keep the' humidity higlI
within. the container and
prevent wilting of cuttings.,
Plastic, of polyethylene
bags can also be used as pro-
pagating units. Wrap damp
sphagnum moss 'around the
base of cuttings, insert into
the plastic bag and tie the
top. A few small holes in the
bag will insure air exchange.
Don't disturb until the cut-
tings are rooted.
The plastic bag can also be
used to enclose an ordinary
clay flower pot in which
cuttings have been stuck. A
couple of sticks in the pot will
keep,the bag from collapsing
on the cuttings.
Almost any type of large
container can become a
propagating unit. A 1-gallon
or 5-quart oil can is a good
choice. Remove the top and
wash out any oil residue.
Punch a ring of 6-8 holes in
the side halfway between top
and bottom. Fill the can with
small pea gravel to within 1
inch of the holes then cover
the gravel with a 1-inch layer
of sphagnum moss and fill
the remainder of the can with
sand. Wet the mix until water
drains from the holes in the
side of the can. This unit has
a built-in water reservoir.
Moisture will evaporate from
the surface sand but water
from the lower reservoir will


Rep. Hutto Urges Approval of Bama Turnpike


State Rep. Earl Hutto of
Panama City has urged Gov.
Reubin Askew to meet with
Alabama officials concerning
their plans for a proposed
turnpike which would run
from Northwest Alabama to
somewhere in Southeast Ala-
bama.
Hutto, after meeting with
Askew, said the Governor


promised that the Depart-
ment of Transportation would
be in close consultation with
Alabama authorities.
Alabama Gov. George
Wallace said recently that his
state is losing millions of
dollars annually because it
does not have a major traffic
artery from Northwest Ala-
bama southward to Birming-


ham and from Montgomery
through Southeast Alabama
to the Florida line.
State Sen. Larry Register
of Dothan, Ala., chairman of
the Alabama Turnpike
Authority, was quoted as
saying the north-south route
could intersect the Florida
line anywhere from the
Chattahoochee River to


Bonifay.
While the .exact routes of
the proposed new toll roads
have not been determined, a
corridor has been planned
which would parallel High-
way 231 from Montgomery to
Dothan and Highway 80 from
the Mississippi line to Mont-
gomery.
Hutto said it is incumbent


upon the state of Florida to
work in cooperation with
Alabafna to see that the
traffic is channeled into
Northwest Florida instead of
heading tourists in the
direction of central and south
Florida. '
"We want. to be brought
into the mainstream of the
sunshine state and it is


mandatory that we take steps
now to see that we are not
bypassed," Hutto said. "The
spot where the proposed
Alabama turnpike intersects
the Florida -line is of utmost
importance to our section of
the state."


It was right interesting to note a statement
by County Commissioner Walter Graham at the
regular meeting of the County Commission last
Tuesday night.
In discussing the financing of ambulance
service for the county, Graham made the state-
ment that if public funding is needed to perpet-
uate ambulance service, he thought the municipal-
ities in the county should pay a share since peo-
ple who reside in the cities would be using the
service. To Graham's credit, he thought the ci-
ties should not pay a' full share, since county tax-
es paid also by city dwellers would go into the
county's payment, as well as taxes paid on rural
property. The Commissioner felt (at Commis-
sioner Player's suggestion) that a per-capita
figure should be arrived at for ambulance costs
with the cities being responsible for only a half
share for each person in their limits.
What was so interesting about Graham's rea-
soning was the fact it wasn't too long ago that
Port St. Joe City Commissioners appeared before
the County Commission and used Graham's same
argument in trying to convince the County Board
they had an obligation to help finance hospital
deficits since approximately half the hospital
patients live outside the city. The City Commis-
sion argument got nowhere, except to get the
promise of a loan from the County.
What's the difference, is what we'd like to


know!

Jerry Thomas, former president of the Flor-
ida Senate, was in town Thursday meeting people.
Mr. Thomas seems to be an unusual fellow.
Not pnly did he have the convictions to change
his registration from that of Democrat to Repub-
lican (and he can give you definite reasons why
he did), but he made no bones about why he was
here. "I'mi trying to meet people and d6 a little
politicking so I can run for Governor next year",
he said.
e Most politicians, when they start out this
r early come up with an explanation 'like, just vis-
iting friends over the state, or, getting a first
hand report from the people or some other such
- excuse., Few ever come right out and say,
I'm running for such and such an office.
Y Thomas said the state is tdo big to wait uh-
P til next year to begin his politicking. So he has
started early.

it Our good friend Walter Dodson, former Flor-
f ida Bank president. here, and now president of
the Florida Bank in Titusville, sent me a gift last
f week. Walter attended a Chamber of Commerce
s, meeting where the Gannett Newspapers (The
f Star of Central Florida) passed out. favors of
cuff links and key chains made from an old lino-
type. matrix, 'all polished up and gold plated.
d Walter sent me a set.
I may not get around to writing you a letter,
Walter, tilt thanks for ,the gift. I appreciate it.

l This year puts me out of the secondary school
business. My last one graduates Tuesday. night
and,. for the first time in umpteen years, leave
p Frenchie and I without a child in school
S The feeling will change somewhat in the fall
when our last graduate becomes our last pupil in
college. The bills for college will help erase the
emotional upheaval which might result from not
having a kid in high school
It is nice to have your children all grown,
though, while you are young enough to enjoy
life alone. Take it from one who knows.
h


move upward by capillarity
like oil up a wick. Under
normal conditions this unit
will require water every 10-14'
days. Such a unit will hold
about twenty, 3-4 inch cut-
tings of azalea, holly, hibis-
cus or similar plants. This
unit can be covered with
polyethylene to reduce mois-
ture loss but keep the unit out
of full sun because it .can
become extremely hot under
the plastic.
Numerous other containers
such as pans, boxes or
baskets can be used similarly
to the units described. Make
sure the containers have
sufficient drainage so that
the mix is not continually
saturated with water. All of
these units should be placed
in partial shade. The cuttings
must be prevented from
drying out as would quickly
occur in direct sunlight.
Also, if cuttings are enclosed
in plastic, temperatures in
full sun will become so high
that scalding will occur and.
cuttings can die.
Experiment with these and
other propagating units you
make-up yourself. You will
be rewarded with plants to
use around your home and
they will cost you nothing
except for the materials
needed to build the propaga-
tion units'.

In Gulf
Sales of Series E & H
United States Savings Bonds
in Florida during April were
$13.2; million-up 3.8 per cent
over April 1972.
Florida residents pur-
chased $54.6 million in Bonds
the first four months of this
year-an increase of $6.6
million over the same period
last year. The state attained
41.2 per cent of its 1973 sales

is an increase of $3.4 billion

- )


rages over the issue of big
government v. individual
rights-usually about once a
day-there is inevitably a
cluster of whispering legisla-
tors surrounding the desk of
Rep. William Rish, Democrat
from Port St. Joe.-


"A few of the boys, both
Democrats and Republicans,
come by wanting to know if I
will support their view," Rish
says. "My vote's worth only
one like everybody else's but
if they think it's worth more
then I feel flattered,"


.Bandmaster Thomas Odadzin tells his banquet given band mnebers Saturday.
Senior band members "Goodbye" at a (Star photo)


When the 40-year-old Meth-
odist lay preacher rises to
speak for the cause, oppo-
nents often have found, to
their dismay, his- one vote
carries quite a few others.
One reason Rish speaks
with such convincing convic-
tion is he knows his
constituents in the Panhandle
counties of Gulf and Bay are
applauding every word.
"My constituents are just
hard-working, honest people
who don't want the govern-
ment regulating every min-
ute of their lives," he says.
"They want to make a living,
raise a family and worship
God or not worship God as
they see fit in their own
way-and be left alone."
A former milkman who
Worked his way through the
University of Florida 'Law
School at the age of 30, Rish
first won election to the
House in 1970. "I suppose I
decided I wanted to be a
state representative when I
was a little bitty boy," he
says.
His easy re-election last
year was apparent proof his
constituents like his stand for
the little man.
"If I can ascertain the
wishes of a majority of my'
people on a very important
issue, then I try to adopt that
position as mine," he ex-
plains. "But I usually don't
have to adopt it because
usually it's mine already."
Rish says he had' no trouble
determining his people's
pulse on "gut issues" like the
Equal Rights Amendments
and 18-year-old drinking. He
voted against both.
"We don't always know
what thh people are wanting
on small matters but we
usually know what their
general philosophy of life is,"
he adds.
Although the representa-


tives of a metropolis like
Miami might find it difficult
to glean one philosophy of life
in their districts, in Port St.
Joe life is not so complex.
It's a "Company town",
with more than half of the
work force employed by the
huge Port St., Joe Paper
Company.
In neighboring Panama
City, which also falls partial-
ly in Rish's district, the
largest industry is Internat-
ional Paper Co.
"In a small community like
mine, we don't have a caste
system," says Rish. "The
richest man in town takes his
kid to the same park to play
ball with the kid whose daddy
works at the other end of the
machine."
Rish won the devotion of
many of his constituents, in
1971 when he insisted 4he
state Commerce Department
try to settle a community-
stifling eight-month strike at
Port St. Joe Paper Co.,
owned by Ed Ball's Dupont
estate.
"The state came in and did
more good in a week or two
than the federal mediation
service had done in months,"
recalls Rish. The strike was
soon over and mill workers
who had been forced to
commute as far as Biloxi,
Miss., to find work could
return to their jobs and
homes.
Law and order are import-
ant to the people of Port St.
Joe, Rish says, and he makes
sure their concern is voiced
in Tallahassee.

School

Personnel


Named
In a special meeting held
last week the Gulf County
School Board appointed ad-
ministrative personnel for the
four schools in the county. .
For the most .part present
personnel were retained. The
most glaring exception was
the elimination of the Curric-
ulum Coordinator for Port St.
Joe High School which was
held by Zack Wuthrich during
the past year.
Principals employed for the
coming year include: Howard
Blick, Highland View Ele-
mentary School; Harry Her-
rington and assistant Allen
Scott, Port St. Joe Elemen-
tary School; Ken Herring and
assistant- Edwin Williams,
Port St. Joe High School;
Hugh Semmes, Wewahitchka
Elementary School and Har-
rell, Holloway, Wewahitchka
High School.
Another move made by the
Board was the elimination of
12 teaching positions thruout
the system. Supervisor of
Schools David Bidwell said
the county was employing 117
percent of its teacher alloda-
tion as prescribed by the
State Department of Educa-'
tion.
"This meant Gulf County
was paying the entire salary
of some 25 teachers with no
state money to help carry the
load. State allocation for each
teacher amounts to around
$13,000 per year, so this will
lighten the county's financial
load considerably".
The Superintendent pointed
out the county system will
still have 12-13 teachers over
the quota set by the state.

Right Foods Can Help Your Heart


In the spring of life, a
young persons fancy should
be turned towards foods that
will help his heart later on,
says Florida Heart 'Associ-
ation.
In,a springtime message to
mothers and young people,
-your Heart : Association
advises setting a table that
serves less fatty foods with
an eye to calorie intake so
that overweight is prevented.
While this is good advice for


every member of the family,
it is' particularly important
for young' people, many of
whom have high levels, of
fatty substances in their
blood, or who have one or
both parents with this condi-
tion.
Atherosclerosis-a disease
of the arteries that is closely
-linked with heart attack and
stroke-is caused by deposits
of cholesterol and other fats
found so abundantly in
snacks favored, by -young
people-hot dogs, fatty ham-
burgers, oil-soaked French
fries and potato chips, ice
cream and other rich des-
serts. Every year, heart
attack is reaching, down to,
younger age groups, says
your Heart. Association.
Many studies have shown
that this disease can start
early in life, so a sound
eating pattern developed in
the early days can do, a great
deal to lower the risk of
dying from coronary artery
disease irn the prime of life.
in most cases, moderate
changes in food serving can
achieve the goal of helping
young hearts. Generally,
these are the points for young
people and homemakers to
follow, says Florida Heart:
Eat more meals with fish,
chicken, turkey and veal. If
beef, pork, ham or lamb are
served, make sure that they.
are lean, and the portions
moderate. /
Most hot dogs have a high
percentage of fat. You can
continue to eat hamburgers,
if they're made from lean
ground meat and broiled so
the melted fat drips out.
(Hamburgers fried or done
on a griddle cook in-and
absorb-their own fat.)
Avoid fried foods, except
those made with a little
polyunsaturated oil or mar-
garine.
Substitute margarine for
butter as a spread and in
other, uses, including baking.
Be sure to use a margarine
that lists liquid oil as its
major ingredient. This would
be the first item mentioned
oh the label and should be
corn, sunflower or safflower
oil. Avoid coconut oil; it is
high in saturated fat.
Cut back on use of luncheon
meats, sausages and salami.
These, like hot dogs, are high
in saturated fats, the kinds


CARD OF THANKS
I would like to take this-
means to thank the people of
the Long Avenue Baptist
Church -and the other
churches of our community
for their prayers, flowers,
kindness and concert during
the illness and death of my
father.

Navy Has

A New

Program
WASHINGTON, D.C.- The
Navy has. implemented a
pilot program wherein cer-
tain Navy veterans who
reenlist under broken-ser-
vice conditions, can- be
guaranteed duty assignments
3 of their choice. The program,
known as PRISE, recognized
the advantages of' gaining
R) trained and experienced
manpower from the commun-
ity of former servicemen.
Under the Prise Pilot
Program, guaranteed assign-
ments will be offered to
broken service Naval vet-
erans who reenlist in the
Regular Navy for 4;. 5 or 6
years. Applicants opting for 4
or 5 years will go to sea and
will be given a choice of
geographic location (such as
port, country or coast) as
well as type of ship. Those
reenlisting for 6 years will
have the additional option of
an initial tour of shore duty
in the i geographic area of
their choice. All applicants
S riust be ready to reenlist
9C within 48 hours once the
availability of a billet match-
ing their preferences is
p onfirpmed.
To qualify for the program,
Naval. veterans must have
Sc been separated from active
9C duty for more than 3 months
but not more than 4 years,
must be eligible to reenlist as
i petty officers or designated
C strikers, and must have
reenlistment code RE-R1 or
ars) RE-1. They must also be
00n reenlisting in a rating and
paygrade CREO category A
er or B of the current Open
Rates-Skills list.
Another new reenlistment
option is the PRISE II
(Second Chance) Program.
The PRISE II program is
essentially an extension of
the Navy's School Guarantee
Program to broken-service
ex-navy reenlistees or
enlistees from other services.
Those signing up under
PRISE I' program enter at
-paygrade E-3 and attend "A"
school in a rate other than
that held during their last
period of active duty.
The PRISE programs are
an attempt to offer a broad
package of reenlistment
incentives to both Navy and
other armed service vete-
rans, as the Navy continues
to seek highly qualified
personnel to man its highly
sophisticated and complex
ships 'and stations.

Paroled

Prisoners

Perform

The increasing tendency to
release prisoners on parole
'and probation in the State of
Florida is swelling the'
number of people being
released from prison, under
supervision by nearly 8,000
people a year, Ernest Lang-
ford, Parole Officer for this
area told the Rotary Club
Thursday.
Of the 38,492 prisoners on
parole and probation thruout
the state, Gulf County has
eight out on parole and 21 on
probation.
* "Actually, the program
saves the tax-payers money"
Langford said, "As well as
giving the released prisoner a,
chance to go, straight and
support his. family". The
speaker went ,on to say "It
costs about $11,000 a year to
keep a man in prison,
Prisoners on parole last year
paid enough taxes from their
earnings to pay .for his super-
vision costs while he is being
rehabilitated".
Supervising, parolees and
probationers isn't the only
jobof the parole officer. Thbev
also conduct pre-sentence
investigations, pardon board
investigations and post-seri-
tence investigations. Every
person sentenced by the
courts receives either a post/
,or pre-sentence investigation.
As, an interesting side-
light, Langford. said that over
half of his "clients" are
between the ages of 17 and 22
and have less than a high
school education.

Talks to

WFU Class

Superintendent of Schools,*
David Bidwell was invited
over to Panama City at West.
Florida University, Tuesday
afternoon, May 22 to speak to
a class of 25 taking Adminis-
tration of School Personnel.
The topic was on "Power
Structure" in our schools.
Mr. Bidwell's speech was
well accepted by all mem-
bers present.
The class wishes to thank
Mr. Bidwell for his time,
speech, and question and
answer period. Most of all for
being available and willing to
share with the class new
development within the sys-
tem. Our educational pro-
grams are expanding and
changing rapidly and the
'class feels that all educators
have a duty as well as a
great responsibility to keep
updating the educational
program. Mr. Bidwell h'as
great plans for Gulf County'
and was voted as being a
dedicated person to his
profession.


David Langston, a 6-2
guard from Drake, signed
Tuesday with the Memphis
Tamns of the American
Basketball Association.
The terms of the contract
for the club's third-round
draft choice *were nqt dis-
closed. '
"David's quickness is very
impressive?" Tamns Coach
Bob Bass said. "He has very
good anticipation on defense.
He has the ability to sense
loose balls and cause turn-
overs by harassing the oppo-
sition. And his outside
shooting was good in the
games in which I scouted
him."
Langston played at Port St.
Joe High School, where he
led the Sharks to.a State
Class B Championship. He
played at Gulf :Coast Junior
College on an athletic Yscho-
larship before transferring to
Drake." He averaged 15.7
points per game for the
Bulldogs last season and was
the eighth round choice of the
Philadelphia 76ers in the
NBA draft.

CONSTANT

ADVERT RISING


One .step won't take you very far,
You've got to keep on walking.

One word won't tell 'em who you are
You've got to keep on talking.

An inch won't make you very tall,
You've got to keep on growing.

One little .ad won't do it all,
You've got to keep them going..

A, constant drop of water

Wears away the hardest stone;

By constant gnawin', .Towser
Masticates the toughest bone.

The constant, cooing lover
Carries off the. blushing maid.


And the constant advertiser
Is the one who gets the trade!

-record, the Florida State
Chamber of Commerce said
yesterday. -
The State Chamber's Week-
ly Business. Review said that
'.ti irp, spig,/ lobster, mullet,
menhaden, pompano and
other commercial species
were marketed at $54.7
million in 1972-27 percent or
$11;' m4'lhon, more than the
all-time record of $43.1
million in 1971.
The volume of Florida's
catch was 168 million pounds,
only' slightly higher than
1971's 165 million pounds
which had been the lowest
volume, for the state's com-
mercial fish catch in fourteen
years.
"However, the state's com-
mercial fishermen did land a
greater volume of :,*,-.,r-
spiny lobster and other of the
more valuable p-.;: last
year. And, at the same time,
there was an increase in the
-market price of most species
of finfish in response to
increased consumer
demands," said Ronald S.,
*- Jr., Executive Vice
;. -. 1..- t of the Florida State
of Commerce.
The Review said that
.. i, to a U.S.. Depart-
ment of Commerce report,
shrimp was, the most valu-
able catch, $21 million for 27
million :.,. .n2 This repre-
sented -an increase of one
million ; ..- -: and $4 million
over 1971's catch. Florida
spiny lobster landings
amounted to, 11 million
pounds, valued at .'.'.
over $11 million .last year,
increasing by three million
pounds, and $4 million in one
year.
Other than shrimp and
spiny lobster, Florida crabs,
oysters and other shell fish
came to $5 million for 23
million pounds. This was a
loss in volume of 4 million
pounds, but an/ increase of
$105,000 in value.
Florida finfish-pompano,
mullet mdehaden and others
came to $16 million for a total
of 106 million pounds.
The leading Florida
Franklin County had $3
million in their commercial
fish catch value for 1972.
Other leading Florida
counties were: Monroe, $13
million; Lee, $6 million;
Dade, $6 million; and Bay, $2
