"The Safest Beaches In the World Are In Gulf County"


THIRTY-FIFTH YEAR


Storm Shelter

Improvements

Are Discussed

,: "We know our storm shelter
* arrangements could be improv-
ed on and we're going to work
.toward that end", Civil Defense
Director Richard Lancaster told
the County Commission Tuesday
4 eight.
Discussion of needs for the,
shelters took up nearly a third
f the meeting, with Lncasterl
Snorting that the experience gain-
ed from "Agnes" would make a
smoother operation in the fu-
ture.
Commissioner Lamar Davis
'said a suggestion from Wewa-,
hitchka was that the school be
Used as a shelter rather than
the old,. Courthouse. The old
Courthouse has always been used
in the 'past, but someone recog-
nized that facilities at the school
could' better take care of the
'numbers-of people seeking shel-,
tar than, the old Courthouse.-
h ouse.
A letter to the Board from Dr.
Shirley Simpson gave some prac-
tical suggestions for supplies
to. be stockpiled for shelter use.
She especially cited the lack of
medical supplies pointing out
the only medical supplies at the
high school shelter here in Port
St. Joe were what she had in her
medical bag. Dr. Simpson said,
"Should'a hurricane strike, there
will be no transferring people
-to the hospital. They. will have
to be treated on the site with
whatever is available"..
.* Lancaster pointed, out that
"Civil Defense made' the mistake"
of depending on those coming
to the shelters to bring food and
water. "We can't depend on the,
water and sewage services if a
storm strikes", he said.'.
As a result of the conversa-.
tion, the County and the Civil
Defense will delve deeper into
the matter and try to be better
prepared to care for the people's
needs when the next storm
strikes.


Faulty Clothes Dryer
Causes Fire Alarm

A faulty clothes dryer caught
fire at the W. S. Quarles, Jr.
home at 209 Ninth Street yes-
terday at 1:00 P.M.
Quick action by the Port St.
Joe Volunteer Fire Department
limited damage to the home to
the vicinity of the dryer.
Some smoke and water dam-
age was reported.
The Fire Department was call-
ed to Mexico Beach Monday'
night to extinguish a blaze in a
mobile home. The department
was stopped en route and turned
back when the fire was put out
;by the occupants of the home.


F. R. (Rudy) Pippin, Jr., Coun-
ty Commissioner, District One,
announced this week that he will
seek re-election to a new four
year term in the September pri-
maries.
Pippin is finishing his first
term on the board this year and
offers a promise of "fair and im-
partial representation for all the
people".
In making his announcement
for re-election, Pippin said, "I
am the same person and feel the
same way I did when elected to
this office. With good manage-
ment, the people get more for
their tax dollar and the county
budget stays out of the red."
Pippin called attention to the
fact that the county faced a cut-
V back from 14 mills to 10 three
years ago. "We have dropped the
millage to 10 mills and still held
the county budgets in the black."


The Commissioner expressed
appreciation that "the men I
have served with on the Board
have shown confidence in me by
appointing me to serve as head
of every department during my
term, and this year I have had
the honor of serving as chair-
man of the Board."'
"I have tried very hard to
solve all the problems that have
come before me", Pippin said,
"but it has been impossible to
solve them all and please all the
people. I assure you the deci-
sions I have made were because
I felt they were the right deci-
sion at the time they were made.
I can only promise the same
type of representation-honesty,
and loyalty. I will continue to be
at your service".
Pippin said he believes in the
future of this county and would
like very much to continue serv-
ing its people.

More Families Are Eligible


For Low Cost Home Loans


Many additional families in
Florida are now eligible for ru-
ral housing loans ,from the Far-
mers Home Administration, FHA
State Pirector Claude L.. Greene,
Jr., *of Gainesville announced
this week.
"In families where both hus-
band and wife are employed,"
Mr. Greene explained, "The new
policy permits half of the wife's
gross income to be excluded in
determining whether the total
family income is within the max-
imum limit for loan eligibility."
For example,' the husband is'
the principal source of income
with $6,000. His wife earns
$4,000. His entire income, plus
half of his wife's, or $2,000, to-
tals $8,000. This is within Flor-
ida's moderate income level of
$8,000, so the family may be eli-
gible for a Farmer's Home Ad-
ministration loan.
James V. Smith, National Ad-
ministrator of Farmers Home
Administration emphasized that
. newly-eligible families must de-
monstrate that they otherwise
-merit FHA financing, and that
credit is not available from regu-
lar commercial sources.
"The new policy will assist


families in which the wie's in-
come is needed tol improve the
, standard of living. Note that if
'the wife -is the principal bread-
winner, the rule does not apply.
This change will in no way affect
our expanding service to low-
income families," Mr. Smith said.
Loans may be made to fami-
lies that will buy or build homes


in open country ,, town of up.

to 10,000 population, and who
:are not able to secure credit
from regular comiTercial 'sour-
ces. Complete information is
available from4 Chester H. Smith,
County- Supervisor, Agricultural
Center, Highway 90,. Ohipley,
Florida, or from any of the 26
FHA offices in Florida.'


Man Escapes While Being 'Put In Jail

Gulf County Sheriff's Depart-
ment searched for an escapee
Tuesday night before recaptur-
ing him in the vicinity of Ave-
nue A and the Apalachicola Nor-
thern Railroad tracks.
Sheriff's Deputies were bring-
ing Michael Dunn to jail on a

FPulpwood Truck,
Overturns Monday
Horace Brown of Panama City
narrowly escaped death Tuesday
morning when his pulpwood
truck overturned on Highway 98
in Highland View.
Brown was headed toward St.
Joe Paper Company with his
tractor and trailer loaded with
pulp logs when an outside wheel
-came off the rear of his tractor
causing the other tire to blow
out.

which rolled over in the parking
area of Roberson's Grocery, lay-
ing the trailer over on its side

ley and Dr. Shirley Simpson of-
fered their thanks to the Board
for a contribution and discussed
a possibly expanded program for
next year which may take more
funds than in the past.
Most of the suspected expan-
sion of services, which would in-
clude working with alcoholics is
brought about by laws passed in
the last session of the Legisla-.
ture.
The Board was invited to meet
with the Guidance Clinic person-
nel to discuss the new programs
on Thursday, July 6.
This evolved into a long gen-
eral discussion of what could be
done with the old Washington
High School building and. the
many Federal programs which
could be utilized for the build-
ing. Most under discussion was
the creation of a day. care cen-
ter, training of the physically,
me.itally and scoially handicap-
ped to hold a job and the oper-
ation .of a job placement cen-
ter for 'the deprived.
Andy Thomas, Gulf County .di-
rector of Family Services then
*injected into the 'discussion that
*the County .needs some sort of:
emergency fund to .help people
in immediate trouble. "It's at
least three' weeks before we can
get unforthfiates anfi id through
Family Services and it takes up
to six months to tart Social Se-
curity checksafter a person lie-
comes disabled. We' need some
source of immediate aid."
. Commissioner Leo Kennedy
said that in his opinion the Coun-
ty should set up some program of
financial aid for those in need
since the County does not now
have to finance the commodity

Perspective

On


Education

by DR. BOB M. THORNTON
Professor of Education
University of West Florida


What is education? Some cy-
nics here in Gulf County have
said that education enables you
to go through life without intel-
ligence and intelligence makes
it possible to 'go through life
without education. While cynics
are not always wrong, the impor-
tant consideration is not when
or whether intelligence and edu-
cation may be replaced or inter-
changed, but what is the rela-
tionship between them? Is edu-
cation imparting truth and know-
ledge? Is it molding people to be
like one another? Or is it the art
of ,developing differences of
mind?
Education does not have the


same meaning for everyone and
as suggested in last week's col-
umn, perhaps this is one of the
basic problems the American
people have in understanding
their schools..
Many of today's interpreta-
tions of the meaning of educa-
tion which were perhaps devel-
oped by those without the know-
ledge of wise men, range from
training the young in the tools
of knowledge, character cultiva-
tion, and the art of awakening
curiosity, to economic life pre-
paration, or preparation for ci-
tizenship, or just preparation for
life. In spite of its sound of real-
ism the last is indeed a meaning-


196 Years


-honor without perseverance and a willingness to
stand on principle. It is time that a respectful salute
to a passing U. S. Flag came back in style.
Let July 4,1972, serve as a reminder to each of
us that the ideals of freedom, liberty and justice,
upon which this nation was founded, are not to be
taken lightly. They remain' now, as always, the
pillars of our strength. But, they are only as strong
as they are secure in our hearts.


Communists to conquer us because we would not have
been able to defend ourselves or anyone else.
Brinkley, along with the rest of the doves, feels we
are fighting because we are making weapons. He can't
possibly draw the conclusion that we are manufacturing
weapons because we "are forced to fight. to save our-
selves from the "burying" which Nikita Krushchev prom-
ised us right here within our own borders.
We are Christian and believe in love for one's brother.
But we are also realist and not too blind to see that if that
love is expressed by one brother, and the other brother'
has hate in his heart, he is going to do his dead-level best
to stomp on the first loving brother. /
Mr. Brinkley should look at the realism of the sit-
uation and realize that he should be thankful this nation
has kept itself ready for 25 years. We believe this readi-
nless has held our warfare to 10 years. Had we been, less
prepared, that period of warfare could have been more
or-perish the thought for our own existence-even less.
'Mr. Laird no doubt is asking for too much money.
All. departments do. But this doesn't justify the,, extent
by which Mr. Brinkley would erode our capability to de-
fend ourselves.


less idea of the function of edu-
cation. Preparation for life, if
set as a goal, is such a broad and
undefinable concept that it elim-
inates convergence or if viewed
from another perspective is so
narrow as to be archaic.
Would it help us to look at
the word itself? Etymologically,
education comes from the Latin
word EDUCARE: to make a plant
grow. 'Even though the two
words, are distinct, there is a
philogical correlation with EDU-
CERE: to lead out.
When Eroebel began his kin-
dergarten in 1837, he had in
mind making plants grow and
the metaphor of gardening, if
we are careful, may be helpful.
Our comparison is distinct when
we recognize the fact that no
gardener ever makes a plant


grow; he can only aid its growth
by placing it in good soil and by
watering, feeding and cultivating
it. All of this is done by the
gardener in order to assist the
plaqt in achieving its inner
growth potential. Perhaps the
most understanding to be gained
from our metaphor is that of
completeness or individuality;
i.e., the gardener's attention is
not given to only one part of the
plant but to it as a whole in his
attempt to aid in its growth. One
plant may have more colorful
flowers, one may grow faster
than the rest, and there are oth-
ers who may be taller; and yet
none of these dissimilar individ-
uals are bewailed or hindered by
the gardener. Each plant is en-
couraged to develop and grow
in its own fashion.

L.ETTERS

TO THE EDITOR


Dear Mr. Ramsey,
We have heard so much talk
from experts concerning what
happened to "Agnes". I am cer-
tainly not an expert. But I would
like to give my opinion as to
what happened, if I may, as this
side of the picture has been ad-
vertised.
I was at the Courthouse with
my children when it was ru-
mored that "Agnes" was to hit
the Cape in 10 to 15 minutes. My
children and I went back into
the room we were sharing with
several other families. We all
joined together in a prayer.
Some time later, we heard that
"Agnes" had bounced back and
forth, and circled, broken up,
and was finally lost. One of the
Civil Defene workers was over-
heard to say that they couldn't
understand it. But I feel I do.
Old "Agnes" just hit a brick wall
of prayers. She went crazy from
the lick and finally fell into pie-


ces like humpty dumpty.
Later that evening, we saw
prayers answered again as it
looked as if the homes would be
taken away at Simmons Bayou
by a fast rising tide. This high
tide was down to almost puddles
in an hour and a half.
:Pott t. Jod's history is rid-
died with destriuction from
things of this, nature. But God
has been blessing us in the last
few years.
I would like to think this. is
one of God's ways of showing us
that He can help us in times of
trouble if we will ask and then
let Him.
I would like to thank the Ci-
vil Defense workers and wea-
thermen state-wide for keeping
us informed and helping us pre-
pare.
Thank you,
MRS. VIVIAN BATEMAN

Too Late


To Classify

Russell Kay


I grew up in a world that was
more or less stable and perman.
ent. A time when yesterday, to-
day and tomorrow were much
closer together than they are
today.
That world ,was changing but
at a much slower pace than is
the case today. The changes as
they occurred were much easier
to understand and accept.
Friend-were- easily mnde- an&
appreciated. Neighborliness was
a common virtue. People were
brought up to help one another,
share problems. There was no
social security, no public welfare.
There were poor, ill and af-
flicted people and charity was
taken care of by churches, be-
novelent organizations, lodges
and the helping hands of rela-
tives, neighbors and friends.
There were more small towns
where everybody knew just about
everyone else. People expected
to work for a living and give
value received for their labor.
Communities were made up
primarily of homes, no matter
how humble, and folks for the
most part took pride in them.
Shops were small and privately
owned. There was the corner
drug store, the bakery, the but-
cher shop, the candy store, the
ice cream parlor and, yes the
saloon. Doctors for the most part
were general practitioners and
made house calls day or night.
There were few medical special-
ists.
The nation's population was
mostly rural. There were only a
few metropolitan areas. It was
the ambition of every commun-
ity, every industry to become
larger.
As the cities grew, private
homes gave way to flats and
tenements, then slums. Ice boxes
gave way to refrigerators, the
ice man and his wagon disap-
peared. The small store became
part of a national chain. The au-
tomobile took over from the
horse and wagon. Dirt roads
were paved and, as motor cars
increased, became highways and
throughways.
As more and more people
flocked, to the big cities in
search of opportunity problems
increased. More and more taxes
were needed to provide more
paved streets and highways,
more sewage facilities, more
schools, more just about every-
thing. Crime increased and be-
c am e syndicated. Municipal,
state and federal government
was hard pressed to meet the
need.
Pollution entered the picture.
Fresh air and water became a
serious problem. Wild life began
to disappear. Individual homes
and cottages with their well kept
yards gave way to the high rise


our environment.
Yes, everything is bigger t
day. But is it better? And, whel
do we go from here?


Panama City Beach seems to be upset with the Wea-
ther Bureau because they warned that Agnes was headed
in that direction and due precautions should be taken.
As a result, the Beach feels it lost $1 million worth of
revenue during that week end, and since the hurricane
didn't come their way, they feel (or say they do) that the
Weather Bureau should pay them that $1 million they
missed out on. &
Later on, a story in the paper asked the question of
whether or not Panama City was immune to hurricanes
--especially potent hurricanes. I guess they are intimat-
ing the Weather Bureau should not warn people out of
the Panama City area since a major hurricane hasn't
struck the area since 1900.
I have a cure for the hurricane publicity the people
at Panama City Beach are receiving. All they have to do
is pick up their operations, kit and kaboodle, and move to
Port St. Joe. We never get any of that adverse hurricane
publicity over here.
Take Agnes for example. When the storm began to
swerve from its Panama City Beach course, the Weather
Bureau issued bulletins for several hours that the storm
was headed on a course between Panama City and Apa-
lachicola. Either Port ;St. Joe is located somewhere else
or it is immune to hurricanes and the Weather Bureau
knows it. Only on local newscasts was Port St. Joe men-
tioned. Bill Lyles brags about how far his radio station
covers, but it sure enough doesn't go far enough to put
the bad mouth on us from hurricanes headed in this di.
reaction. Past experience shows us that we need not worrM
about the Weather Bureau mentioning our name, for which
we should be thankful., Hurricanes never hit here.
There is one little iub. ,Should a hurricane ever hil
in Port St. Joe6 the Weather Bureau may be forced to men.
tion the fact that a big blow had been here, and the Pan.
ama City Beach people who move over here to avoid sucl
publicity would be right back where they started from.
We don't say Port St. Joe is immune to hurricanes
We say our geographical location makes it unlikely foi
one to hit here, but certainly not impossible. The Weathei
Bureau, however, may continue with their same reporting|
style, since we know Port St. Joe is situated between Pan
ama City and Apalachicola and thus we are duly warned
People who aren't here can remain blissfully unaware tha
a hurricane, on rare occasion, does take a little more thai
a side-long glance at Port St. Joe.'

I saw mention the other day of the Beauceau Rive
over in Louisiana. Beauceau is pronounced boo-coo. Th,
question is, if Beau is pronounced Boo, why isn't Cou]
spelled C-e-a-u?
One of life's little mysteries.
*
It was refreshing to see the business-like manner i
which Civil Defense carried out their duties during th

(2) In blender container or
bowl, place 3 cups watermelon

turn 2 or 3 trays of watermelon
into chilled bowl; quickly beat with
hand beater or mixer until smooth
but not melted; return to ice-cube
trays; freeze. Repeat with riest

About 20 minutes before serv-

the necessary precautions for
safety. Our local County Com-
missioners were highly concern-
ed about this hurricane and the
safety and security of the peo-
ple whom they represent. To
them we offer our praise and
many thanks for their deep con-
cern.
Our Civil Defense Director,
Mr. Richard Lancaster, with his
very capable voluntary assist-
ants, was on the. scene immedi-
ately to set up the necessary sur-
vival technique. We are fortun-
ate indeed to have an individual
like Mr. Lancaster at the head
of st~ch a 'much needed service.
He is very much dedicated to
such a task of-looking out for
our welfare. We commend him
and his entire staff for a job
well done.
Let us also speak most highly
cf our local Radio Station,
WJOE. They were on the air
around the clock in the interest
of the entire: community in the
Panhandle. We. certainly apprec-
iate their much needed efforts.
We want to also thank all the
law enforcement officials for
their continuous service during
this storm. In fact-we should
all rejoice and send out a great
sound of praise for our having
survived this ordeal. Our com-
munity is the greatest and let's
all strive to keep it that way.
Very truly yours,
CHARLES DAVIS,

A high school diploma had been
awarded to the majority of the,
population aged 25 and over by
1970, while the 1960 census showed
an educational level of only 10.9
years for this age group. A college
degree was attained by 10 per cent
of the persons 25 years and older
in 1970, while in 1960 this figure
was 8 per cent.
"Of the 6,789,443 state residents
in 1970, only 2.3 million or 35 per
cent were actually born in Florida,"
Spencer added. "The rest come
from other states in this order -
southern, northeastern, north cen-
tral, western, or from foreign coun-
tries."


JACKSONVIILE-If you are the
"average" Florida resident, odds
are that you've reached the age of
32, you .are female, unmarried, a
high school graduate and you were
born somewhere else.
This is the picture of the average
Florida resident today as portray-
ed by the Florida State Chamber
of Commerce in its Weekly Busi-
ness Review, based on recently re-
leased census bureau reports.
"When the census was taken in
Florida in 1970, the median age
for the total population was 32
years. The median age for females
was 34 years and for men, 30
years," noted Ronald S. Spencer
Jr., Executive Vice President of
the State Chamber.
Female Floridians make up 52
per cent of the state's population
with a total of 3.5 million in 1970
while male Floridians numbered
3.3 million, representing 48 per
cent of the population.
Approximately 3.2 million Flor-
idians were married, that's 48 per
ent of the population. However, of
the 2.7 million women aged 14
years and over, 61, per cent were
married; and, while there were
only 2.4 million men in that age
bracket, 67 per cent were married.

gins at 6:00 p.m., Friday, June

day, July 4.
Colonel Eldrige Beach, direc-
tor of the Florida Highway Pa-
trol said, "Because our exper-
ience shows that intensive'traf-
fic law enforcement efforts have
a substantial impact on drivers,
the Patrol will be mustering all
of its resources for a maximum
effort during the holidays."
Drinking drivers and drivers
with, an "in-a-hurry attitude"
,will be special targets for troop-
ers.
"Lives can also be saved if
motorists will use safety belts
at all times and exercise caution
by driving defensively to avoid
the errors of others," concluded
Beach.


New officers have been installed by the Port St. Joe Jayceettes

program.
This idea brought a howl of
objections from those, present
. who remembered the last time
the County offered this sort of
service.
When it was all over with, the
visiting committee agreed to try
and come up with a group of in-
terested citizens who would band
together to form a corporation
to manage any possible social
welfare programs which might
be secured for the area. Mean-
while, the Commission is to ap-
proach the School Board for
permission to lease or use the
building. As Commissioner La-
mar Davis said, "We can't do
anything unless we can get that
building".
Hospital Request
Port St. Joe City Commission-
er Tom S. Coldewey asked the
Board to consider a contribution
to the Municipal Hospital here
in Port St. Joe in its next bud-
get.
Coldewey pointed out that
"City tax payers are subsidizing
the hospital by about $50,000 a
year, but 47% of the patients
live outside the city:" Coldewey
said he didn't think it was pro-
per for Port St. Joe taxpayers
to maintain a facility used by
citizens in the entire county. He
asked the County to consider a
contribution of $25,000.
The Board also:
Offered a letter of intent to
pave streets in Millview Addi-
tion in Port St. Joe after sewer
and water was installed. The re-
quest was made by Builder's
Homes so financing could be ob-
tained for homes to be built in
the area.
Received notice that the
County's contribution to the for-
est fire protection fund would be
reduced from $10,110 to $9,960
since some forest lands had been
converted to agricultural lands.
Agreed to stabilize a park-
ing area at the proposed Sunland
Training Center park on St. Jo-
seph's Peninsula so work can
begin on the first two buildings
of the facility in July.
Made a written request to
the Farmers Home Administra-
tion for a grant of funds to in-
stall a water and sewer system
for Oak Grove.


The Recreation Program con-
tinued to have many participants
this week.
In North Port St. Joe, Robert
Thompson and Terry Larry won
the horseshoe tournament in the
11 and 12 year old bracket. Her-
bert Caphart and David Pace
won the 8, 9 and 10 year old
