THIRTY-SIXTH YEAR, NUMBER 50 IHE STA Industry Deep Water Port Firie People Safest Beaches in Florida PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA THURSDAY, AUGUST 16, 1973 * I TEN CENTS A COPY ,County Approves -Purchase of Swamp The County Commission was petitioned Tuesday to officially request the State of Florida to purchase a portion of the MK Ranches property on the Brothers River as endangered wet lands. The petition, signed by several men of the county requested the move to protect the game breeding areas of the River . -, p and to provide a Tag Deadline Monday Gulf County Tax Assessor Samuel A. Patrick said Tuesday taxable property in the county will be assessed at a .higher valuation in the tax year starting in October of this year. Patrick said that, at the direction of the ,'State Revenue Department, Gulf's property valuation is being raised by about 18 percent :over last year. Cards stating the higher \aui:tAi .'.,f property have been sent out to the property owners during the past week. He pointed out that a team of assessors from the .lat. Revenue office have been in Gulf (Cournt,' or the pa..t mrontih goirip o'.-er '9 P1 s'.es_-, meri rolls mneasur g bilildi .. airnd homes and assisting him with the new assessments to be placed against taxable property. Dead Lakes are dying. Even though the famous lakes in North Gulf County have been, known by that slightly morbid name for as long as the white man has known of their existence its name came from the many thousands of cypress stumps in the water which, according to lore, died from flooding centuries ago. But the lakes are really dying now to match their famous name. - Weeds are killing the lakes for anything except as a bed Port St. Joe's Dixie Youth All-Stars are the second best Dixie Youth team in the State of Florida. The All-Stars lost their first game in the State Tourna- ment held in Pensacola last week then had to win all the way to stay in contention for the State crown. They went right down to the finals before losing 5-1 to Ferry Pass in the finals Friday. Port St. Joe's first game and loss was to West Pensacola Monday of last week. Thursday, the All-Stars met West Pensacola and squeezed out a 2-1 victory in a thriller. Pensacola's catcher, Tou- art, gave his team a quick lead in the second when he singled and scored on an error. In the bottom of the second Port St. Joe's left fielder, Paul Mispell got on base when he was hit by the pitcher and scored on an error. Duane McFarland, shortstop, collected a single and came home on a sacrifice fly by the pitcher, Craig Weimorts. for the last and deciding run. Patrick said the re-assessment of real property was necessary before the State would accept Gulf's tax rolls this' year. "I feel sure they will 'accept our rolls as they are presented because they made the assessments", Patrick said. Last year Gulf County taxable property had a valuation, of $53 million. This year Patrick said 'the valuation, will be around $63.5 million. "A definite figure hasn't been arrived at yet", Patrick said, "because there were several errors on the rolls when the' addition was done and ,all of these -:oiri-t.:. haven't been made as yet.", "Still Golf Counti is .rit o6 The rolh 'at 100 percent of value", Patrick said. The full value is the target of the State Revenue Department for every county in the state. to grow more weeds. The lakes have always had weeds in the past, but just enough to enhance 'the growth of the shell cracker, bream and bass which used them for a hiding place in which to grow and feed. Nothing like the- choking mass of weeds that are now choking the lakes, making them unfit for the game fish and certainly unfit for running a motor and boat through the water. I . Where did the weeds come from? Studies have been Port St. Joe had two runs off two hits and left two men on base. West Pensacola scored their run on four hits and left six on base Friday night the All-Stars jumped off to a quick lead in the second inning with two outs when Chuck Pollock singled, he was brought home by Paul Mispell's single. Danny DeWitt.was tagged out at home to end the inning. Ferry Pass exploded for four runs in the bottom of the fourth off two hits, both doubles, and Port St. Joe errors. They scored again in the fifth inning to earn their 5-1 victory and the state championship. Port St. Joe had one run off five hits and left five on base. Ferry Pass scored five runs off six hits and left six on base. Each player on the Port St. Joe team received a trophy as 1973 Dixie Youth State Runner-up and a special T- shirt. The team trophy was presented to Coaches Daryal Strickland and Archie Wei- morts by State Director Bill Mizell. made by the Florida Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission and. engineers hir-ed by the Dead Lakes Water Management Com- mission. Their theory is that the weeds have -always been there, but periods of high water have washed them on down river before they could gain hold and begin multi- plying to the point where they would completely choke the stream which flows through the lakes.' With the installation of the Dead Lakes Dam some years back, .the weeds can no longer wash down stream. They are staying in the lake and completely stopping it up. So what to do? On the advice of those who have made studies of the Lakes problem, the Dead Lakes Management have borrowed money and re- ceived grants from the Federal Government and the State of Florida to construct a by-pass around the dam at a cost of around a quarter million dollars. The by-pass will allow the lakes to be drained periodically to allow the sun to get to the weeds, left high and dry by the receding water. It seems the pesky weeds can't stand sunlight, like the vampire they are proving to be. Plans now are to, drain the Lakes in the fall, when the Chipola and Apalachicola Rivers are at their lowest ebb and fishing activity in the Lakes also at a reduced rate. The Lakes are fed directly by the Chipola River and indi- rectly by the Apalachicola River during times of high water. Now under construction is a giant drain with a gate at .the lower end which will do the job--of 'draining the Lakes at least. The device (Continued on Page 7) Gulf County Tax Collector Harland Pridgeon said this week, county motorists have until 5:00 -p.m. Monday to purchase their new 1974 license tags. "Tags for cars, trucks, trailers and mobile homes must be purchased by this date or owners will be in violation of the law", Prid- geon said. "Some parts 'of the state have not yet received their tags", Pridgeon said, "but this is not the case in Gulf County. We have plenty of tags". The Collector said he knew of no extension of the deadline for any reason, including the tag shortage. "Monday afternoon will be it", he continued. Tag buying purchases'were brisk this week and Pridgeon said, the pace would go from brisk to hectic the latter part of the week and on Monday. "Those who wait until the last minute will wait for several more minutes, in all Increase 18/o Patrick pointed out that last year county real property was assessed at approximate- ly 76 percent of full value. This year it will be assessed at about 85 percent. The Tax Assessor pointed out that in the assessing process, several homes were put on the tax rolls which were not taxable in years past because of homestead exemption, "All home owners will still get the advantage of the homestead exemption", .Patrick said, "but the increasing valuations makes all homes more valuable for taxing purposes, thus increasing their values above the $5,000.00 exemption limitil" "" The increase- 'in' valuat' i ill be' reflected in a reduction of millage, since Florida law requires a reduction in millage by the same percentage as the increase in The Gulf County School Board revealed their new budget this week for fiscal 1974 which shows an increase over last years total and a very slight decrease in millage levied. The School Board will have a total operating budget of $2,462,218.80. Last year's op- .erating budget was $2,351,- 227.00. The millage levy will be reduced by four tenths of a mill in the new year. A bigger tax bite will be placed on County tax payers in the new budget due to a reduced contribution from the state of Florida from what was expected. Local taxes will finance $608,640 this coming year as opposed to $489,680 in the year just completed. Other sources of income are: $108,776.90 cash on hand, down $102,000 from last year; State and Federal, $1,679,- 791.90. up $79,000 over last year and $65,010 from other sources. valuation. While this doesn't ne':-io;.J. mean a reduction in tax dollars collected, the County Commission did accomplish that feat in their budget for the new year by reducing the millage and the amount of tax dollars to be collected. 'The School Board, however, had to tax the legal limit because of a reduction in state funds because of a new "cost of .... formula adopted by the State Department in. their formula for distributing the state funds. An equalization has tentatively been set for Thursday, Aug;ui ."R8 l. to.,e '.vho wish ''to protect their aiu iions to ,be he,r~ Makipg up the Equalization Board will be three members of the County Commission and two members of the School Board. On the expenditure side of the ledger, the Board will spend $75,000 more for instructional salaries in the new year. This is due to an increase in salary of about five percent for instructional salaries. Non-instructional personnel also received a five percent raise. The next highest increase was in Food Services which jumped $33,- 600 to $135,000. This, of course, was due to an increase in the price of food. Administration was increased $18,000 to a total of $111,- 534.82. There were some reduc- tions in the budget also. Health Services were reduced by $3,000 to $3,500 and reserves were cut to $45,- 274.82 with $85,070 set .aside for reserves last year. The debt service budget is about the same as last year. This' fund is used to pay off bonds sold to construct two new high schools in the county three years ago. All of this fund is paid for with Race Track funds plus a 1.595 levy of millage. .Capital improvements will take $162,916.01 to finance in the new year. Last year an additional $111,713 was plac- ed in this budget item. The Board will levy a maximum 10 mills in the new year for the operating budget and 1.595 for Debt Service. The 10 mill levy is the maximum allowed by law and the Debt Service millage was voted on by the tax payers during the school construction. likelihood" Pridgeon pointed out. He also said tag purchasers would face a longer wait if they fail to bring their pre-typed regis- tration sent out in the mails last month. "When you bring this T. :i ,,'..,, with you, all we have to do is take your money and give you a tag", Pridgeon said. If the slips are left at home, the tag office must write out a new one and this holds up the line and delays the purchaser.

The Board discussed this project some time back but never -ffk ih v requested the state to make the move. As a result of the petition jogging their memory Tuesday they agreed to petition the state to purchase the property. Commissioner Eldridge Money also requested the Board to ask the state to purchase beach front proper- ty in the St. Joe Beach-Bea- con Hill area under the same program. The Board agreed to Money's -,,f^'.. A",iVf t-, William J. Rish said he was doubtful if their state would purchase the beach property as Gulf C.,.-dt. does have some public beach and there are .h..

The Governor said last week in a l, ier to the Port St. Joe' i'ty ,...n,,, v i'i,,. there was no money available for the repairs. Attorney William J. Rish told Money the Port St. Joe City Commission had this maneuver in mind and would probably call on the County Commission for support. "Right now the city is just sitting tight until more organizations have time to get their letters of concern to the Governor before paying him a visit", Rish said. DOG FLIES Mosquito Control Supervi- sor Emmett Daniell told the Board something should be done about the St. Joe Paper Company's freah water canal. "It's raising dog flies faster than we can kill them", Daniell said. The Supervisor went on to say grass cleaned out of the canal by the Company is being piled on the bank and is "an 18 mile breeding ground for the flies", Daniell said. He went on to suggest the county try to work out some plan where the grass could be hauled to a county land fill area and buried periodically.

We think it's time fo r a little les- son in government., As an example, we'd like to cite the people! of Apalachicola. For many years they have depended on Apalachicola Bay for the backbone of their economy. The continued good health of that economy, they will tell you, depends on a delicate balance of salt water flowing into the bay from the Gulf of Mexico and fresh silt-laden water flowing down the Apalachicola River and meeting with the salt water in the bay. Those who make their living di- rectly from harvesting: Apalachicola Bay will tell you that harvest was curtailed: some with the construction of Jim Woodruff Dam. They say the oyster beds have retreated due to a lack of silt and nutrients, which they claim is being trapped by the dam. When the Corps.of Engineers re- cently came up with a proposal to Sput more dams on. the jlwer Apalai Schicola River. the Ssurnras throirgh past ex.pe'rnnrt. tit t- oysterr beda and shrimp p',pui6-n.ar w~ridi retreat even further. Apalachicola probably has more factions than any oith-r uw. ;l town in this area, but wiiLen their bay was threatened, they got together as one body. It didn't matter that practi- cally all of South Georgia 'and Ala- bama wanted the dams to enhance river shipping and industries in their states along the river. Even over this combined economic force, the voice of Apalachieola was heard be- cause they all shouted ri-ithir as one voice. The lesson is this. We have a drawbridge on U. S. Highway 98 at Highland View which is causing a great inconvenience to the people in the Southern half of Gulf County. The State of Florida says they have no money a; n;s,. lf to make the substantial repairs ne- ,'.-.-r, to make the bridge depend- able. So, we get patch-work repairs which do not do the job. It would seem to us, from the experience of. Apalachicola, that if the people of th.- Port St. Joe area wudI go to.

From The Brooksville Sun-Journal Florida Supreme Court Rule Flouts Constitution The Supr-T.r.e Court of the state of Florida, with .:an incredible burst of strained logic, has rendered a decision that flies in the face of the First Amendment to the Constitution and muzzles a free press. It is our hope i .t. the court, in its infinte wisdom,, -will reverse itself on motion to rehear or-in the ;2'Tri tive-the decision will :,be overturned by the United States Supreme Court. . On the surface the Florida court's 6-1 decision seems fair and logical: Newspapers must give candidates whom they criticize in editorials; a chance to reply. It is only when one cuts r.,".--d.., the surface is r-..r realization that: 1. The court says news- papers in Florida "must" print .*.-..: which fair and .'':*.-..; newspapers p: -, rint, within reason: Namely, both sides of a controversy. (The Sun-Jour- nal has a long-standing J,,'o*..,, for instance, in i15' rr full rl ..,i not only from candidates criti- cized but from any r,.u "n, or citizen so i." :. - 2. The law, as 'r-,,.'.J now -by the court, .,.., compel a newspaper to publish "any. : that 'a candidate for office may ..make if the newspaper has v: .'] statements of .,',.-r' attacking the candidate. The reply'would not have to be ..' . : 1- -' 1 '. ,-, responsive. The reply could contain libelous and personal and slanderous attacks-and there would be no civil or criminal protection afforded the newspapers from legal action.- 3. Some large newspapers in metropolitan areas could cra,:l publish during politi- cal campaigns because they would be taking up their space ; r;n';.,; charges and replies :from hundreds of candidates, some of them real candidates and others just people who get their names on the ballot with no chance of winning or even affecting the -1'>c:":n,. THE RULING cameon an old state law, long considered ,... '. .: -." -*": ; .: and so ruled by two lower courts when "a _.-';.- candidate tested it in a lawsuit against the M:. :,, Herald. Too, the statute which the court' upheld goes far beyond mere replies to editorial comment. The Florida stat- / ute says that if a :.,:.. ' : another free space for such purposes" *' is, ",p r.c a ...i' '.., or his record-that politician must be given equal space to reply. S Thus, if, for instance, a candidate for county com- missioner attacks his oppo- nents in a campaign speech,. each opponent must be given equal space to answer and the answer must be displayed exactly as the original story was Ji 7Liai,' . That's patently ridiculous and is an alarming stand aimed directly at freedom of the press and the public's right to know. ALREADY TOO MANY newspaper editors have been cowed into submission and timidity by the threat, of expensive lawsuit, by the fear of economical reprisal, and by the failure of the .i :!.,'1 system to protect the news sources of reporters. And without a free press, Heaven'help this nation. Of course r.,: k. p~ -' could simply stay out of contro-' versy, stop attacking politi- cians, and "..' r... avoid having anybody invoke the force law ..,'ir them. This already is happening on television, as Gene Patter- son, editor of the St. Petersburg Times, so elo- ,u '.:' put it in his Monday column. But, like Mr. Patterson, we hope the Florida court in S-..-r ,. will go back and read the '..i.; words, of Thomas' i, ': , "I deplore... the putrid state into which our news- .q.' have passed, and the 1e -. --,., the iL: .,' '. and the mendacious *.;wl of 'i..*. who write them It is however, an evil for which th,.r.. is no-remedy. Our ,to'. depends on the freedon of the press, and that cannot, be limited without 1 -,, ost. " A Good Deal The State of Florida, through its Pollution Control Board is giving Hamilton Kenner fits in his efforts to develop his property in the swamps of central Gulf County. They say his development of the property through clearing of the land and .turning it into pasture lands is en-- dangering the ecology of the, Bro- thers and Apalachicola Rivers. Kenner, on the other hand, pur- chased the land :which was only a liability to other owners ;and felt he should be able to capitalize on his investment through development. Not wishing to appear, to. be a person who didn't care what happen- ed to the rivers, Kenner made a pro- position to the State, He offered to sell a portion of his property, along the rivers to the State at the price of his land purchase plus, clearing costs -and let the State maintain it as a watersh'-d for the rivers. The' S.tltr c-ouldt it.h.'e the land under its .ndang r.-d wetlands program. In view of h i.-. we think Kmrin-r's proposition is fair both for him and for the Sut.t. of F lr,,i; Since M K Ranches has made the fair offer, the State should take him up on his deal or leave the firm alone. If the rivers are going to be maintained in their present state, the State of Florida must do some- thing such as this. The private pro- perty owners cannot afford to just continue to pay taxes on land which can be ,;.i.rni in the eyes of the Pollution Control Boaid as- .-Aul'. land. With the price of land today and the taxes levied, this is a luxury no private land owner can afford. Valuations Climb Notices were put in the mail last week notifying property owners of their valuations for the coming year. Many noticed increases in their valuations. In Gulf County, Assessor Sam- uel A. Patrick has maintained a prac- tice of assessing property at about 80% of cash value. This practice, combined with State millage limits, has maintained a reasonable tax structure for property owners in the county. Recently, though, the State of Florida has had assessors in Gulf County changing Patrick's valuations and bringing them up to their idea of 100% in valuation. There is a revival going on in our country today to do away with property taxes as unfair and, sup-. posedly, coming up with a "painless" method to pay in the same amount of dollars in another way. This la- test maneuver is no doubt a form of squeeze play to pinch the property tax payer and gain his support in doing away with the property tax. We think the property tax should remain. If a person, pays out a chunk of money at a certain time each year, it's going to smart, sure, but it's also going to make that tax- payer be informed about where his money is going. Too, we can see where taxes by the "painless" method could take more of our money each year than property taxes. At least with pro- perty taxes we have the controls of the property's value and mill limits to sort of safeguard us from a tax bite becoming a tax gobble. Visit Old St. Marks Light On less than a tank of gas, Big Bend residents and visitor-s may make the roundtrip to one of the oldest and most picturesque light- houses in the southeastern United States, situated 30 miles south of Tallahassee. The St. Marks Lighthouse was built in 1831 from limestone blocks originally used in construction of Fort San Marcos de Apalache by the Spanish. During the War Between the States, Union soldiers landed at St. Marks Light in an effort to capture Tallahas- see, the only capital east of the Mississippi that had not surrendered to the north. The Union forces were defeated in the Battle of Natural Bridge and Florida's capital was saved. Visitors may walk the grounds of the lighthouse and, during low tide, stroll the sandy beach to the mouth of the river. The lighthouse is situated in St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge, one of Florida's most beautiful natural settings. Covering more than 67,000 acres, the subtropical virgin marshlands contain many species of oak, magnolia, cabbage palmetto, sweet and black gum, bald cypress and Florida holly. In the sawgrass ponds throughout the refuge, Can- ada geese, bald eagles, anhingas, great blue herons and many other waterfowl, as well as alligators are seen. The St. Marks Lighthouse and National Wildlife Refuge offer Big Bend visitors a glimpse of history in the setting of a wildlife sanc- tuary. SEtooin SWShrdlu by WESLEY R. RAMSEY BARE STEAK A headline on the front page of the Talla- hassee Democrat Friday night proclaimed, "Beef Price Ceiling Termed Successful". I'd say that was 100" correct I know, at our house, we're spending less for beef now than ever before. In the past our Friday night steak, Sunday roast, and hamburger and stew beef during the week has taken a good chunk of our meat budget. This isn't the case anymore. We spend hardly any mi:ne.y for beef any more. I wasn't real sure what the reason was, but it must be the beef price ceiling which is doing the trick. Surely the fact that the markets have hardly any beef to. sell has anything to do with our re- duction in expenditures for beef. The point is, we'd buy if it was there to buy and since we're not spending as much, the price ceiling must be working. . One thing about the beef price ceiling and its :,i nipa.mn'inig attributes, more people are eating their steak rare these days. 'BLAME YOUR PARENTS All you -bhubby people take heart. It's not your fault you're on the portly side. In a recent report which came out in the papers last wc,.-k, scin.tiit. have found you have *more fat cells than slender people.

I always have the blahs on Thursday, after the pressure of getting the paper out the first three days of the week; but Harry cured them Thursday. He came on strong with, "I'm always glad to get the paper. It's such a relief to read a good paper after a week of putting up with the one that serves our town". Talk about handing a starving fox hound a biscuit! Words like that can make my day any day -regardless of the day. It's funny how a few kind words will perk up our spirits while the det- rimental mutterings only excite our defensive me- chanism. Things like what Harry told us and the fact we have had to increase our press run over 200 1 in the past two months make life worth living. Deputy Gives Tips On Robbery Protection Sgt. Tom Berlinger of the Gulf County Sheriff's office gave Rotarians tips on how to discourage robberies in bus- iness houses at their regular meeting last Thursday. First, one tries to discour- age robberies with the install- ation of alarms, lights, mir- rors, cameras and other deterrants of crime. "If a robber knows he will attract ,undue attention through setting off alarms, getting his picture taken or having people seem him in his act, he will likely stay away", Berlinger said. As suggestions on how to discourage robbery, Berlin- ger suggested the installation of an alarm system with the premises marked as being protected. Installation of a camera or mirrors in the business will discourage rob- beries and pilferage. Keep the windows clean in the business so people outside can see inside and see what is going on. "This will go a long way toward discourag- ing robbers," the Deputy said. Berlinger recommended that if even after all these precautions have been taken, a business is still robbed, "give the man what he wants without resisting. This way you minimize the chances of your being hurt." The speak- er cautioned those being robbed to study the robber in order to be able to give a description. "Especially note anything unusual about the robber, such as an accent, a scar, unusual markings or appearances." Next, call the police and let them catch the robber after you have given him a complete description before *you forget any details. Guests of the club were Harry Babbitt of Thomas- ville, Ga.,Alfred W. Mack of Jacksonville and Jim Fem- som. lM r The Gulf County School Board met in regular session on July 3, 1973.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 16, 1973 Signal Device Changed (FPR)...New hand signaling devices called Stop- Slow paddles are being put in use by the Florida Depart- ment of Transportation to replace the red flags previously used in guiding traffic around highway construction, maintenance and utility operations. The new signs will be used by DOT maintenance per- sonnel and are required of any other governmental authority or contractor performing work within public highway -i,' of way. The Stop-Slow paddle sign is a 26 inch wide circle of .-..i.i- rt durable plastic attached to a six foot plastic. pole. One side displays a STOP sign with white letters and border on a red Octagon- shaped background. The reverse side says SLOW in black letters and border on an orange diamond-shaped background. Stop-Slow paddle signs provide more warning and guidance to the motorist. He should have little cause for confusion due to uncertain hand signals or improper usage of a flag. Paddle signs spell out the message loud and clear and are considered an added safety factor for both the motorist and the flagman. Specifications for the signs also are spelled out loud and clear in the DOT Manual on Traffic Controls and Safe Practices for Street and High- way Construction, Main- tenance and Utility Operations. This manual was adopted by the Department last year to establish uniform traffic control measures and standardize procedures throughout the state, The DOT's first 500 paddle signs were shipped this week to district maintenance offices where they will be issued to .,'iit-,, assigned to work projects. The signs were produced by the DOT Sign Shop in Lake City. In the future, red flag will be used only in emergency situations. Red Cross Applauds New Blood Policy (FPR)...Washington, D.C. -- The American National Red Cross will give its full support to the Federal Government's new national blood policy, George M. Elsey, the organization's president, said. The new policy, aimed at securing blood for tran- sfusions from volunteer donors instead of those who sell their blood, was an- rounced by Caspar W. Wcinberger, Secretary of Health. Education and Welfare, at a July 10 White House Symposium for science writers. Secretary Weinberger told' reporters the new system will help to reduce the threat of liver disease hepatitis. which is more apt to be transmitted by donors "at the bottom rung of our economic ladder" who sell their blood. The new policy also will provide a more uniform system for blood collection, the IIEW secretary said. and will require more complete federal regulation of blood banks and processing Cciitcis. Mr. Elsey said today that. for 2( years the Red ('ross has advocated all-volunteer blood supply for the nation based on a regional pattern, but that its efforts to achieve these goals have met with vigorous op- position during these years. Stating that Red C('ross welcomed secretary Wein- berger's action in calling for the "fullest possible cooperation of the private sector in implementing the national blood policy." Mr. l'lsey said the organization's national board of governors earlier this year approved Iced Cross participation in the formation of the American Blood Resources Institute, a proposed corporate agency which could be -a beginning point for such cooperative action.

The rGStar photo Port St. Joe Right In Middle of Gulf Oil Exploration Plans This chunk of wood was dug from the ground next to the Dead Lakes Dam last week in dredging operations to install a lake draining device.

If all goes according to schedule, several tracts of land in the Gulf of Mexico will be leased for offshore oil and gas development in late December of this year. The area contains some 886,458 acres and is located offshore from M1 *,-.r?,pi Alabama and Florida, with the bulk of it off the Florida coastline south of Pensacola-Ft.. Wal- ton, south of Apalachicola and west of Tampa-St. Petersburg.. An estimated 925 to 1,490 wells will be drilled and in operation when this tract is fully developed. The ... - will be located on 100 to 300 platforms. Some 400 to 800 .i- of undersea i.,p-i'p will be required to transport I e r ,. i ; :, 3.2 billion >,- ,1 '."' r.,f6] 2.4 to 3.0 trillion cubic feet of gas which will be s.. -, ' F- -'.-,,",,. the lease sale will require 5 to 8 onshore terminal storage facilities and 12 to 15 ,' ,..'' and supply facilities to be I i .i" Water depths in the area range from about 100 feet to :-,:. over 200 feet.

There seems to be general concurrence',-,that the most unavoidable and predictable of the environmental impacts resulting from the drilling for and ;:'ro .i, and gas off Florida will be a result of shoreline and- shallow water construction operations. Oil spills, of'"course, are a distinct plsibility-ranging from almost daily discharges of very low quantities to catastrophic spills resulting from a platform accident, a ruptured"' [ r. e ,-e' an at-sea collision and7terminal activ- ity. ' "Sooner or later a spill will occur", b;he report said. It points out however, that these proposed lease areas are a considerable distance offshore and that generally Gulf of Mexico winds and currents -are such that oil should be kept from the beaches.

Rish hear Apalachicola Mayor Jimmy Nichols explain how Star photo River Dams Appear Dead hearing in which the proposal to construct navigational dams on the lower reaches of the Apalachicola River was overwhelmingly opposed. Rep. Pat Thomas, D-Quin- cy, chaired the session. Rep. Gus Craig, D-St. Augustine, who heads the House Com- mittee on Natural Resources, also attended. "We -just wanted to give you folks around Apalachi- cola Bay a chance to be heard loud and clear," said Thomas. He added that the testi- mony and a tour up the river Thursday. was to gather background information so ." *;.i. i.-'.,' can take a posture on the issue. Rep, Paul .-'..'- tt.'L D - Miami, told the audience Biscayne Bay and the Miami River in South Florida are long since dead. "Before the Woodruff Dam was built, our oyster beds extended further into the Gulf." said Varns. "But since they stopped the fresh water flow. the i,.' grounds have shrunk. Any further damming would kill us. The Engineers now have a ;.*."- ',in i. study under- way on the i r' i,1 of more dams below Chattahoochee to provide a year-round channel for the river traffic.

At', this worksession, called especially for consideration and change of the tentative budget presented by the Clekk and considered proposals for items to be added and subtracted from the tentative budget. After a considerable work session, the Board tentatively approved all budgets, except the. Sheriff's ,budget and he was requested to submit another proposal at the next regular meeting of the Board. S There being no further 'business, ; the meeting was -adjourned.

Cornrn. Money said in a previous meeting that the Board had voted not to bIild-anyn m')re streets in ubdiivisJons until the CouP- ty had developed' .. : .. tions. ie added thaI in other areas the developers or buyers have ,t bring roads up to spe(ificatio.ins ber[re the ;Read is accepted. Comm. Graham said t-he Board did vote not to accept any subdivision .roads until the roads w.re of a cln"tain grade and he ie't t nia miaion had hurt the. little m-an and he was against that. Conni.' .Davis said he opposed d.'evop.ieit of pri- vate prope-,riy Y i;)e Board bu, a' 'hen 20 25 property owners as, in Riverside S: Estates n-e.ded a road he was not opposed to building it as the County would benefit in the- lonigrun. After furliher earlier acopted police on subdivision' road building, Commi. .. -, vei. that the Board's (.io c:ncern- ing this matter, of March 13, 1973 recorded on page 4604 look 8 of the sn.mi..tes oe rescinded. Connmi. Graham seconded the motion. The motion passed as Comm. Whitfield, Graham, Davis, and Player voted aye. Comm. Money nay. Comm. Whitfield then moved the Board accept no plants of new subdivisions until the roads in that subdivision are brought up to County specifications. Comm. Graham seconded the motion. Comm. Money said he feels all streets should be brought up to grade where the road department would have nothing to do but grade the road as it was needed. After further discussion, the motion passes unanimously. Comm. Graham then moved that :the road in Riverside Estates be completed, pro- vided. Mr. Charley Gaskin supplies the needed fill dirt. He added this road is needed so the lot owners can begin home construction. The mo- tion passed as Comm. Whit- field seconded the motion and Comms. Graham, Davis, Whitfield and Player voted aye and Comm. Money voted nay. William- Linton, represent- ing the School Board, pre- sented a road work request listing four items that needed work at Port St. Joe High " School. Comm. Player said the work could.be handled by the Road Department. Com- missioner Graham moved that the Board help on these items,' provided the ,School Board pursue some relief from their .contractor on patching holes in the parking lot area. Comm. Player seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. - John Dill, Wewahitchka, appeared before the .Board, requesting, the Board pave the road to the old Stokes Fish Camp. Comm. Whitfield urged the Board to pave this road as there -are 'a lot of permanent residents living on the road. Comm'.. Graham, said the road was not on the Board's priority list and could not be paved presently. Common. Graham then moved the road be put on the priority list so it could be paved in the near future. Comm. Whitfield seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. Mrs. Marqueritte Brogdon told the Board the present diking project underway on State Road 38, is going to deprive her and perhaps other property owners from access to their property and she wonders if the Board intends to remedy this situa- tion upon completion of the project. Comnm. Graham said the-Boprd has failed to act on, this matter because they were unaware there .were other property owners -,! ...-o- ing the dike. Comm. Player said in the final analysis the. Board would provide access to the property but he understood the Board's :ig rr.nit with M K RPoiePS "w.iu~d' noid that firn m :-.., sible. Commissioner Graham then asked the Attorney if the agreement calls for M K Bandhes to provide access to those property owners affected by, the construction. The Attorney answered that, according to the agreement, M K Ranches would have to complete this project accord- ing to the Board's specifica- tions and' the Board could hold, them responsible for providing this access. TheI Sheriff asked the Boa'id who was ,'..* ,' -.!.:, f9r acquiring a letter of agreement with the cities of P( ka concerning the chajr, .:. ' housing the municipal pri- soners.

A hunting dog, or other animal used to plenty of exercise can be rendered almost invalid by heartworm. Dogs have died as a result of the para*i#.', and even a light case in any dogs can cause irreversible damage to heart and liver.
