Total engineering fees for the .huge system which will dispose of wastes for the City, St. Joe Paper Company and Glidden- Durkee, will come to approxi- mately $363,000 by the time the job is completed. The engineering fees are be- ing paid for on a basis of pro- posed use of the system, with St. Joe Paper Company paying: about 96% and the City and Glidden-Durkee sharing the re- mainder. Plans for the system are. ex- pected to be ready for bidding in December, with present time- table calling for letting of the' contract near the first of Jan- uary. The City has instructed its en- gineers to apply to the State De- partment of Pollution Control' for, permission to empty waste' water from\the plant into the Gulf County 'Canal rather than pipe it to. St. Joseph Bay. '' + * The plant is being, designed to treat waste to meet standards set forth by the State Pollution Con- trol Board for elimination of pol- lution problems. !v Miliview Addition Water Commissioner, Bob Fox told the Board Tuesday night that all material has arrived for installation of water and sewer service to the new Millview Ad- dition Unit m in North Port St. Joe. Clerk Brock stated that the liens on the property for financ- ing the project had tentatively been sold and the sale should be consummated within the next few days. \ Tuesday night, the City Com- mission took final steps to se-_ cure ,the property on which to place a sewage lift station for the area and to obtain proper easements for locating sewer and water mains, , Bid Accepted The Board tentatively accepted the bid of-Perfection Cobey Co., of Lakeland to furnish a new 23 cubic yard garbage packer truck Two Young Children Drown While On Holiday Outing 20 yrd pass from Ken Whittle to Stye Atchison. Coah Wayne Taylor said the Shark defense looked good, but the ofense was shaky. "This is only o be expected after only threeweeks of practice", Taylor baid. "The defense normally gets agether before the offense does. We normally have four week to get ready for the jam- bor -s This year the date was changed allowing us only three week of preparation. We have work d only on fundamentals thus ar and really weren't rea- dy to do any playing". Nekher Marianna nor Chipley were able to, move the ball againstt the Shark defense. . Gulf County added wO- deaths' to the national toll of .the Labor, Day holiday wheh. two young children drowned- Monday after- .noon at Ope San .Blas Point. SVeima Mason age 14 and Ricky Mason, age 9,: children of Mr. and Mrs. Alfonso Mason of North Garrison Avenue, Port St. Joe, were the victims, according to the Gulf County Sheriff's De- partment. Toni Thomas, age 12, daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. George Tho- mas 105 Robbins Avenue, .near- ly met death also, in an attempt to save the two drowning youths. Witnesses say the children were playing in a pool near the beach when Ricky Mason fell off into a hole over his head. His sister went to his;"rescue and also began 'to struggle in the water. Toni Thomas 'then went to the Maid of the' boy and girl and nearly drowned herself be- ;fore she was pulled, out of' the water by Jimriy Demmings, 18. The Thomas. girl was taken to Municipal Hospital for treat- ment. * -Aecording to Demxnmngs, the accident' occurred at about 3:15 pn.m Neither of the three involv- ed in the accident could swin.

After the bodies were found, resuscitation efforts were made, but the two were pronoun-' ced dead on arrival at Munici- pal Hospital. Survivors of the two children include their parents; grandpar- ents, Mr. and Mrs. Nero Hopps, all of Port St. Joe and Mr. and Mrs. Elbhers Mason of Mobile, Ala.; two brothers, Kenneth and Danny of Port St Joe; three sis- ,ters, Debrai Grace and Angel all of Port St. Joe. % Funeral services will be, held Sunday afternoon, at 1:00 p.m.. from the Apostolic Over A Com- ing Holiness Church with Elder A.

Parade Salutes Organized Labor Approximately 300 men, women and children marched in a parade in Port St. Joe Monday morning, in what was labeled a "Salute To Labor on Labor Day". The parade started at headquarters of the Paper Makers and Paper Workers Union on Sixth Street and marched to the railroad overpass on Highway 98 then back to the City Park on Fifth Street and Highway 98 for refreshments. Featured in the parade was a coffin bearing the inscription, "Don't Kill Labor" and a large sign tell- ing of labor's role in providing the money that keeps industry .and business going through its buying power. Union members and their families from all Port St. Joe organized labor organizations took part in the affair. --Star photos I NUMBER Application Made With Corps of Engineers for Dredging, Bulkhead QWarterback Club Hosts to Sevi team Grid Jamboree Here Toni a L A ' a THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Flride THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1971 PAGE TWO EDITORIALS....

We do agree that each child should have an WayPontiac I Way baek in o ur Americi('jptrywep.ad thq Boston Tea Party, which expressed, explicitly, how some Ameri- cans felt about a, certain tax. Last week we had the Pontiac, Michigan Bus Party (or bus burning) to express how most Americans 'feel about busing children miles to and from school every day when there is a school right in the neighborhood. Just for the record, Governor Askew has urged the people df Florida to accept federal busing orders. Sev- eral Florida school districts are defying the orders. The South accepted school integration, reluctantly, while the Nortlyhgot by without this turmoil in their way .of doing'things.:, Hardly anybodyy will give you an argu- men#t .n the ,South anymore, when you admit that the former Negr -' schol r r standard.

It has been proven, however,, that money spent doesn't necessarily guarantee quality education. For this reasoon, we con- tend that an equalization of dollars spent. per pupil -in each county will not necessarily mean that each is getting the same education. Some schools are more costly to op- erate than others. Volume, producers can manufacture goods cheaper th-n smaller enterprises even .though the smaller enterprise doesn't have: as much overhead as his larger competitor. Thus, larger schools should be able to operate quality education plants at a cheaper per pupil- rate. We don't believe it's at all a good idea to remove all property taxes from school financing. When people are. pot required to pay directly for something, they tend to think of it as being free, 'and that is when their demands begin to get unreasonable. Another thing that causes us to nause is the question of what kind of a tax would be levied upon us to replace the property tax?- There is a good possibility this new tax could be considerably more obnoxious. There isn't a question but what some source of reve- .ue would be required to replace the property tax. 5 3us Party ' Negro children.' But busing just for the sake of satisfying the opinion of Supreme Court judges will and is .causing' the South to receive support from their Northern cousins. The people of Pontiac expressed their opposition to their children being used as pawns so some politician could sit back in his swivel chair, rub his belly arid say, "Now ain't that nice". Those' affected by the busing orders don't .think it is so nice that their small children must ride 'from 20 to 50 miles a day to get to -and from schools when there is one within walking distance right down the road. While propqnentd of integration hadr a valid argiimeht .in-their favor, whether people liked it 'br not, thie proponents for busing-cannot ,for..th -life-of themn,_give a convincing ar- gument for such' insanity. -/ / -- -Just you wait and see, Wll. hae' a the biggest '"bus- ing party" in this country you ever saw before this is all over with. , Youth Here? open.

Too Late To Classif By Russell Kay The sun was shining through feecy puffs of lightclouds when we left home for a 'dinner party at 'the, famous 'Kapok Tree 'Inn on North'Haiies Road, Clearwa- ter. As, we made our way through the Sunday traffic through- Olds- mar and Safely Harbor we noted heavy black clouds forming 'in the "area of our destination, mounting into the sky as a gi- gantic thunderhead. Our only concern was that we would find a parking space close to the Kapok Tree entrance. We were fortunate. We arrived just as another car was pulling away from a parking space a short distance from the door. Congra- tulating ourselves on our luck, we made it just as the rain start- ed. The heavy dark cloud still hovered above as the wind pick- ed up. 'Ours was a dinner party for relatives who were leaving for the North shortly. We were in gay spirits as a hostess seated us comfortably in the main dining room near a window where we had a. delightful view of the famed tree and surrounding landscaped gardens. Service, as usual, was prompt. A pleasant young lady took our cocktail or- der while a waitress provided delicious appetizers and awaited our dinner or er. The rain' 'as now coming down hard an!i a stiff wind bat- tered. the tre sand foliage but we were dr'y and cozy at our table. Our' drinks had just been served when it happened. A "crash of j lightning with a tremendous plap of thunder struck the building. A portion of the roof came smashing down a short distance from where we were seated hs the rain came pouring in., No one was injured, Man Is Stil "Finding TI Rev. Ellii Rev.

Guests of the club wee Bud Fowler of Monticello an,- Fred Jablin of Albany, Georgi fortunately, but it was a arrow- ing experience that left -is tem- porarily dazed. What impressed me even more than the storm itsdf was the immediate action of tie man- agement and their well rained employees. Our hostess aid wait- resses quickly reached occupied tables, assisting guests fr m the damaged area. Dining 'Room manager James Lucas an wait- ress supervisor Mrs. Tiptox quickly directed us to ta les in an adjoining section of tie res- taurant. They did so with ut de- -lay or confusionn as though they had been drilled in such an ex- 'ercise: It was really an amazing performance and a credit o the ,organization. I particularly noted Mr Tip- tox's concern for an elderly lady ,ho had difficulty walking. Tak- ing her gently by the armn, she moved' her 'over the rain clicked floor until she could seat her at her new table. She cbuld not have shown more concern if it had been her own mother. I have witnessed other 'emer- gencies on other occasions of one sort or another where all was confusion and no one seem- ed to know what to do, leaving patrons to shift for themselves. It was a remarkable demohstra- tion of capable management and direction. I extend my compli- ments to assistant manager James Lucas, manager Fearra and all who participated. In a matter of minutes we were enjoying our dinner as if nothing had happened. The famed Kapok Tree seemed to wave a cheery good-by as we left. - ".,. '.....

RAMSEY I think it's time the sportsmen of Gulf County did something about the people of Bay county coming over re and ruining our hunting and fishing.> t's realize the beginning that all Bay county sportsmeit-are not this sort, but many of them are causing hunting and thing lands to be removed from the use of our people. STwo weeks ago, Gulf Timberlands put their lands off ts to hunters. An official of the company explained e that bird hunters from Bay County came over here a ran vehicles over their fields, tearing up the crops, so ey had to post the land. 'Many Gulf County dove hunters enjoyed themselves la year oh the fields of Gulf Timberlands and First A nrican Farms. If Gulf Timberlands has found it neces- sar to post their lands, can First American Farms be far behind in posting theirs? e had a run-in with some of these Bay County" sportsmenn" last week end. Our young men's Sunday__ Schcol class of the Long Avenue'Baptist Church took-an overnight fishing trip to the Chipola River. We werd campd on the banks of the river and about 3:30 in the morrmg, !three Bay County pick-ups pulling boats came roari g up to our camp-site; made all the noise in the work with no regard to our party trying to get some sleep- They violated the law by putting their boats in the water and took off downstream with head lights and guns 41 their boats.I Ve might add that they stole part of our equipment while they were unloading. There was nobody else at the si^ where we were, so Vwe saw no reason to worry abouttheft. I this is normal with these people, it is time the peo- ple of Gulf County band together to do something about it. W* trust that no Gulf County sportsmen come roar- ing iniq a Bay County campsite in the wee hours of the mornir*, slam down truck hoods waking everyone up, shouting and laughing in a !loud voice when others are trying o sleep, and then carries off everything that isn't locked ip. .* * r, I AJWL A.IL P.x P.x P.M.

The satisfactorily grown in many parts itic nematodes must of the state unless nematodes are' it hosts and they often controlled. mary causes of poor Since nematodes are microscopic, ary causes in Florida. In fact, and cannot be seen by home own- asses, zoysia.grasses ers, diagnosis of -the problem is de grasses cannot be not easy. What symptoms. should, a home gardener look for when a nema- tode problem is suspected? First, A, Iobserve the above ground portion Sof the turf. The grass leaves mpy A R IN appear off-colored, usually yellow- ed, stunted and dying back. The turf will usually be thin and in an unthrifty state of growth. The grass often appears to be suf- ferjng from lack of fertilizer or water and will not respond to ap- plications of either of these two L essentials. Second, the roots 9of the grass should be carefully examined for signs, of abnormal growth. The parasitic nematodes attack the root system, .feeding on the young roots and. often causing severe stunting of the entire root system. Affect- ed roots appear shriveled, black- ened and stubby and there gen- erally will be an absence of white feeder roots. Unaffected plants have deep, well-developed root systems and healthy looking white 'S '"'feeder roots. CESSORIES Since nematodes reduce roots, turf cannot obtain sufficient wa- ter and fertilizer elements. It TO Rslowly declines, yellows and be- comes thin. The weak turf is eas- ily invaded by weeds. All of our common lawn grasses are affected by nematodes. Bahia grasses appear to be least affect- ed. Also, there are many different -s e types of nematodes which parasitze these grasses. Generally two or more types are found in lawns and in many cases seven or eight types may be present in a single lawn. This makes nematode control a difficult problem since one type S' may be easily killed while another type might be extremely difficult to control. Chemical control of nematodes will be covered in next week's ar- Sticle. . Meanwhile, in another matter dealing with registration of young people, the Secretary and Dorothy Glisson, director of the Division of Elections in the Sec- retary of State's Office have sent a memorandum to county supervisors of election with sug- gested guidelines to be used in determining proof of qualifica- tions for registration. The suggested guidelines, in- tended to be helpful to supervi- sors, are the result of a work- shop of supervisors and review by the Secretary of State's staff and the office of Attorney Gen- eral Robert Shevin. "There are many items of proof which may be accepted," the memorandum said. Mrs. Glis- son said some of these items of proof can include telephone book listings, leave agreements, library cards, driver's licenses, draft board cards, credit bureau information and many others.

Many of these lands are very difficult to effectively drain. This is one of the prin- cipal types of land being devel- oped here for this crop. After a few years of experienc- ing the usual Gulf County rain- fall conditions and the resulting crop failures from poor drainage conditions, it now appears that the prospects are bright (barring lots of hurricane water, etc.) for a better production this year- resulting from the manner in which the rains came in the rel- atively unusual fashion. Possibly this will afford the planters a respite in which to recoup some. __ I PAGE FIVb P~ME. STH~AR, Poii Str. Jeft Fh6 34" THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1971 Carrots and Kilowatts ]PAW-,= by.

Lee Metcalf, D-Mont..Jisted Florida Power as one, of-100 electric utilities that are already making too much money. Metcalf's charge, inserted in the Congressional Record, was considerably off base, as events proved. But the news media trumpeted it all across the na- tion, and it's pretty hard to sell a rate boost when somebody says you're rolling in dough already. The Senator alleged that all three of the state's big power producers Florida Power and Light Co., of Miami, Tampa Elec- tric Co., and Florida Power Corp. -had far exceeded a 6.95 per cent "profit limit"' set by the Florida Public Service Commis- sion. Well, thqe is no such animal. David Swafford, director of PSC's rating division in Talla- hassee, quickly responded that regulators' don't and can't go : .by the familiar "profit margin" -the ratio of profits to sales- in judging utilities. "The. law says they're enti- tled to a 'sufficient rate, of re- turn' on any. property used and useful,' but there's no set rate-- 'that's what we have all these rate hearings, about,'"- said Swaf- ford. Metcalf was correct in report-, ing Florida Power's profit mar- gin, which was 19.79 per cent last year-if you go by the ac- counting method used at the cor- ner grocery store. Tampa Eiec- trie's was 18.63 per cent and Florida Power and Light's 14.24. But grocery store can start up with maybe a building and; some shelf stock-say a $100,- 000 investment in all-and do a, $500,00 annual sales volume with it. His profit may be low, per- haps $10,000 or $15,000, for a' "profit margin" of 2 or 3 per cent But he has paid his employees (and.possibly himself) wages, and Ssttled- his bills with the whole- salers, so 2 or 3 per cent in pro- fit margin might be a cause for celebration with him. Suppose, however, he had to invest' $500,000 to start the bus- iness. Suppose he took the $100,-' 000 he had and put it with $400,- 006 borrowed at 9 per -cent to build a really classy., food mart. And suppose he still pulled in only $50,000 in sales for a profit margin-, of $1,0,000-$15,000 or 2-3 per cent. He would be wiped out in no time. The interest cost on his $400,000 borrowing would- run him $36,000 the first year.' That, in a nutshell oversimpli- fipation for purposes of clarity, .explains the, utilities' predica- ment. Florida Power last year had a whopping $31-million in profit out of the $158-million col- lected in .revenues,, for the "pro- fit margin" of 19.79 per cent- that Metcalf grumbled about. But its. total investment in plant was something like $685- million. Aid the "capitalization" behind that-the money accumu- lated to build a 32-county elec- tric company-was $588-million (5& per cent long-term borrow- ing, 44 per cent common and preferred stock) Looking at last year's $158-mil- lion in revenues, you find that after paying $57-million in oper- ating expenses, $30-million in taxes, $17-million in interest (borrowing costs), $17-million in. stock dividends (the 3.05 per cent yield on common isn't much to brag about), and $23-million in assorted, other. charges, the big fat utility ended up with about $14~-million in income it could play around with. 7 That was promptly plowed into a $700-million construction pro- gram needed to keep up with Florida's explosive growth. By reinvesting this in the business, the company avoided that much more high-cost borrowing and earned a good bond rating on Wall Street (where it still must borrow $150-million in 1971-72). With inflation slashing at utilities no less than at thee and me, Florida Power's net in- come has been slipping lately- but this essay isn't intended to defend its rate boost plea. The merits of that will be weighed at PSC public hearings next winter. But there is a difference be- tween carrots and kilowatts, and this is aimed only at explaining how Sen. Metcalf confused his grocery store with his electricity company. And how it happens that you're seeing an. amiable untheatrical .engineer named Joe Perez performing on the TV tube these days. *DODS A college-livel but non-credit techniques needed to create de- course on "The Art of Decoupage" coupaged wood, ceramic and me- will be offered by Gulf Coast Corn- tal art items. munity College on Thursday evej Course instructor will be George nings, beginning September 16 at Kaeding, manager of Mary Carter 7 p.m. in the Art Laboratory of Paint Center.

BROCK 8-26 City Auditor and Clerk 4t Many Plants Are Poisonous Many gardeners and homeown- ers are not aware that several of our common landscape plants con- tain poisonous substances. The types of toxic substances vary considerably. Some can result in skin irritation similar to ivy poi- soning while others are only dan- gerous if eaten. Most of these plants have a very unpleasent taste and it is not likely that any- one but children would chew or swallow the plant parts. However, most youngsters will put practi- cally anything in their mouths and with some plants severe poison- ing can occur. Susceptibility to poi- sonous plants varies among indi- viduals so you might be affected by a certain plant while your neighbor is not bothered. Several !of the poisonous plants found i- Iround the home are described in the following paragraphs. Skin irritation occurs in many persons if they contact the Aap o1 Crown-of-thorns, Milkobush. (Pen- cil eaetus), Poinsettia, Top Prim. rose, Mango and Ligustrum (pri. vet). Even the foliage of 'these plants car cause dermatitis in some individuals. . Several common- plants have seeds which are toxic Barbados- nut, Castor bean, Rosary pea, Jimsonweed, Pokeweed and Tung tree. The Rosary pea (Crabeye, Jequirity pea) is extremely toxic. One seed if chewed and swallowed can be fatal. The foliage of the Tung tree, Pokeweed, Jimsonweed and Rosary pea can also be dan- gerous. Dieffenbachia or dumb-cane is toxic if chewed or swallowed. The toxin causes irritation and swel- ling of the throat and temporary loss of speech; thus the common name "dumb-cane." Practically all plant parts - leaves, stems, and flowers of Yellow allamanda, Crape-jasmine, Hydrangea. Carolina jessamine, Gloriosa lily and Oleander are toxic. Tubers of the Gloriosa lily are especially dangerous as are all parts of the common and yellow Oleander. One leaf of the Oleander is reported to be sufficient to kill smoke from burning Oleander stems and leaves has caused poi- soning. The plants mentioned above are just a few of the poisoning species found around the home. Others such as poison ivy and oak occur in fields and woods. Most of these plants are not considered to be very dangerous except to child- ren who would chew or even swal- low the plant parts. If children are taught not to put leaves, flowers, etc. in their mouths, acci- dental poisonings can usually be. avoided.

Berwin Williams. Executive Director, Region I, Florida Gov- ernor's Council on Criminal Jus- tice told the, Board Tuesday that Congress had appropriated $600,- 000 for 16 Northwest Florida. - counties to establish a uniform' radio system, which would be tied into one system. Berwin said the federal money would pay for .75% of the system with the coun- -ties to pay the remainder. Gulf's share would 'be $5,000, but this was not known at budget time when Parker set up,$10,000. to 'get involved in the project. The County Board had cut this item to $4,000 two weeks ago. The proposed system would also bring the Cities of Port St. Joe and Wewahitchka into the network, with the county footing the bill, along with the federal grant. . The County gave its approval for Sheriff Parker to enter into the program. , Flood Insurance County, Attorney--William J. R i s h introduced Richard' T.

Buses Carry Most Precious Cargo TALLAHASSEE The most priceless cargo on Florida's high- ,ways is carried in chrome-yellow vehicles labeled "School Bus", re- ,minded the,; Florida Highway Pa- trol this week. "Stopping, for a school bus may cause drivers to lose a little time,", said Colonel Reid Clifton, Direc- tor of the Florida Highway Patrol, "however, life is worth more than time. This rule is designed to pro- tect the lives of our youngsters when travelling to and from school." (i , More than 400 traffic crashes in- volved school buses in Florida last year. One out of every four resulted ininjury. Florida's' school buses have sig- nal lights both front and rear to warn other drivers. Yellow flash- ing. lights indicate slowing down and ied flashing lights with' the red arm extended from the bus is the signal' for other vehicles to stop while', the children load or unload. ' When a school bus displays a stop signal loading or unloading, Florida law requires all drivers going in the same direction to stop.. Traffic moving in the oppo- site direction must also stop un- less the highway is divided with an unpaved space at least five feet wide or a physical barrier. School buses are required to stop at rail- road crossings and motorists should use' caution while follow- ng a bus when approaching cros- sings. "Drivers should reduce speed when meeting or overtaking a school bus and be prepared to stop at any time," concluded Clif- ton.
