Port St.. Joe's Mayor Frank
Pate is one of seven candidates
for election, state-wide embroil-
ed in a test of the resign-to-run
law of the Sthte of Florida. "
The office of Attorney Gener-
al Robert' Shevin has; said Pate,
along with six other failed to
tender the# resignation for pub-
lic offices already held by the
July 1 deadline in order to seek
another office. In Pate's case, he
is a candidate for Judge of the
County Court.
Pate, through his attorney, fil-
ed, affidavits that he filed his
letter of resignation with the
City on June 24 and a confirm-
ing letter was sent by the City
to the Secretary of State on June
30, but it was claimed the notice
of resignation was never receiv-
ed by the State.
Pate's affidavit pointed out
that he verbally resigned in mid-
May and by writing on June 24.
Daniel Dearing, chief trial
counsel in the attorney gener-
al's office said he could not make
a judgment on whether Pate
was in compliance or not, so his
case is included in the group be-
fore the Supreme Court.
A decision is expected shortly
on whether the seven, including
Pate, can continue to pursue the
elected offices they seek.

The Port of Port St. Joe lost
241,582 tons of shipping last year
over the previous year, accord-
ing to figures released this week
by the Corps of Engineers Mo-
bile office.
Port St. Joe handled 689,180
tons of cargo across the docks in


1971 as compared to 931,762 tons
in 1970. Most of this drop in ton-
nage was due to the St. Joe Pa-
per Company strike which start-
ed the first of August in 1971.

Port St. Joe with the inland sec-
tion of the Gulf Intracoastal Wa-


In the process of pulling in its.
financial horns to comply with a.
state law limiting the County
Commission's taxing powers to
10 mills, the Board has both re-
duced taxes and village in its
proposed budget for fiscal 1972-
73. Using the ax to come within
the limits, the Board chopped!
$3,500 off the tax bill and re-
duced millage by ..one point, in
arriving at a 9.5 total for. the!
new year. The county levied 10.5
mills last year.
But even with the reduction in
local taxes and millage, the bud-
get for 'the :new year will be
slightly more than $100,000 over
last year's total of $1,373,781.55.
A total of all funds shows the
County will budget $1,473,743.66
for'the new fiscal year.
Certain new funds will be
available for spending this year
including the state's new reve-
nue sharing program which will
furnish Gulf with $58,000. But
this item is almost completely
offset with loss of other funds
and reduction in Others, such as
intangible and cigarette taxes
which accounted for $49,000 in
income last year.
Another new source of reve-
nue is, gasoline taxes from the
state formerly spent under the
states secondary road program
and now administered by the
county. "


This new responsibility also
helped swell the Road and
Bridge fund by almost $100,000
over last year. The County spent
$359,398.00 in the road program
in the last budget year (which
included some of the new sec-
ondary program, but not a full
year) to $444,965.00 for the new
year.
SLooking over the proposed
l'udget recapitulation, the Gen-
eral Fund shows a $50,400 in-
crease to $631,424.01; the Fine
and Forfeiture Fundi reduced by
$5,000 to $153,250.96; Road and
Bridge increased by $85,600 to
'$444,965.00; Certificate of. In-
debtedness Reserve up $4,400 t5
$71.707; C. of I., Fire Stations,
$3,727; Capital Outlay reduced:
$72,000 to $47,200; St. Joseph
Fire Control District, $11,400;
Tupelo Fire Control District,
$11,400; Certificate of Indebted-
ness, I. and 8., reduced $1,000 to

EDITORIALS...


Of all the encouraging signs of our times, certainly
the best is the "back to God" movenient among the youth
of the world. The mammoth "Explo 72" rally in Dallas
(and televised in this area last week) was just one of the
outside manifestations of a strong return to Christianity
and morality, after drifting so far in the opposite direc-
tion.
It is good news when "Amazing Grace", a gospel
song. first published nearly 200 years ago should now
become one of the most popular songs in Europe as well as
in America. "The Baptist World" reports that a bag-
pipe version of the old favorite was recorded by the band
of the Royal Scots Dragoon .Guards, a British regiment
stationed in West Germany and is now the number one hit
song on the Continent.
No less amazing than the present popularity of
"Amazing Grace" is the story of its 'author, Rev. John
Newton of London and Olney, England. Newton, born
in 1725, the son of a ship's master, went to sea as an ap-
prentice seaman at the age of 11. For six years he sailed
the seas between the British Isles and the Mediterranean,
and by the time he was 17 he had already gained the repu-
: station of a swaggering, tough, blasphemous sailor.
r Shanghaied and impressed into the British Navy in
1744, Newton, because of his seaworthy experience, was
quickly promoted to-the rank of midshipman. But just as
quickly the brash young man jumped ship, and for this
he was publicly flogged and degraded. Boarding a ship


We read Malcolm Johnson in the Tallahassee Demo-
crat religiously religiously, that is, until he starts writ-
ing about flora and fauna. Malcolm is knowledgeable in
this area; we are not. Since we don't know what he is
writing about, he gets passed up on those days.
An incident happened to us the other day, to make
us realize that we were the loser by not knowing what
editor Johnson was talking about in those special columns.
To most of us, a tree is just a tree, unless we happen
to know what kind it is. Around these parts, we are sur-
rounded by pines. But, they're not just pines, there are
several kinds of pines. When you begin to learn the
difference, you begin to appreciate them more. To go a
step further, we appreciate them far more when there's
not enough of them o'n hand to keep our paper mill running.

Perspective

On


Education

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


Public school administrators
have a duty to give and imple-
:ment orders. These orders affect
:students, school staffs, parents,
taxpayers, politicians, and the
general directions of education
and these persons and directions
often conflict. Any one of these
groups rightly claim a direct in-
terest in the course of educa-
tion, especially when they be-


come the object of an order is-
sued by"a public school adminis-
trator. Any one of these groups
can and often do raise a 'hornet's
nest' when the public school ad-
ministrator issues an order. No
public school administrator re-
mains long in office if he does
not learn to keep carefully this
reality in mind as he gives and
implements orders of administra-

Holland Graduates

From Bank School

Grover L. Holland, of the
Florida First National Bank of
Port St. Joe, -was among 264
banker-students from 42 states,
the District of Columbia and
Canada who were graduated
Friday, August 4 from the School
for Bank Administration at the
University of Wisconsin in Mad-
ison.
The school is sponsored by the
University of Wisconsin and the
Bank Administration Institute,
and is one of the more than 500
short courses apd conferences
held on the Wisconsin campus at
Madison throughout the year as
educational public services for
all citizens.
Subjects tackled by the bank-
er-students include bank ac-
counting, bank auditing and
bank operations. They also must
submit extension problems be-
tween summer sessions. Evening
seminars follow the regular day-
time classroom sessions, where
the banker-students get an op-
portunity to hear discussions on
supplementar subjects.


sailing for Africa, Newton next became a slave dealer,
trafficking in the selling of human flesh. In 1747 he went
back to sea, this time as captain of one of the notorious
slave ships. But in 1748, in the midst of a great storm
at sea, John Newton surrendered his soul to God.
Returning to England, he arduously studied Greek,
Hebrew, and the scriptures. It was not long before he
was invited to preach in the town of Olney, Buckingham-
shire; although it wps not until the year 1764 that he was
ordained as a full-fledged minister. Soon after that the
famous poet, William Cowper, took up residence in Olney.
He and John Newton became fast friends. It is undoubt-
edly through Cowper's influence and tutelage that New-
ton quickly learned the art of rhyme and rhythm and
began to compose some of the most beautiful hymns
written.
In 1779 the works of John Newton were published,
entitled "Olney Hymns", and by 1880 they were being
sung in America. In a modern hymnal in wide use in
the churches of America, no less than seven of John
Newton's hymns appear; and among them, "Amazing
Grace," whose verses reflect John Newton's own experi-
ences as one who had experienced the cesspools of human
society 200 years ago, and having been saved by grace.
How prophetic the words of Newton in another of his
beloved hymns (Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken),
when he speaks of that "grace, which, like the Lord, the
Giver, never fails from age to age."


Encouraging Signs


with me, or else he can draw his
pay check in Montana. I under-
stand it would be a struggle for
the principal to explain his posi-
tion to ignorant folks like us,
but any man that really knows
now a machine works can ex-
plain it to the least mechanically
minded person.
It is not infrequent that our
administrator captures the head-
lines in personal attacks against
politicians, claiming that the pol-
iticians are selling the schools
down the river with inadequate
funding or interference with aca-
demic freedom. Since we have
in our heart a special place for
the maintenance and continu-
ance of our schools, it is the pub-
lic school administrator who di-
rects hornets towards Tallahas-
see. The administrator's plea is
that existing lines of communi-
cation with the legislature are
adequate, or that the legislature
does not have an ear to hear the
cries of the schools. So it is the
call of duty and citizenship that
leads to a bitter contest for the
will of the people's realization
that we are making war upon
ourselves.
In a recent interview, Sen.
, John Broxson pointed 'to the
need and demand of the voters:
We (legislators and educators)
really seem to get things done
when we try to reach points of
agreement rather than attack
one another in areas of disagree-
ment. The people want positive
results not endless arguments. I
am continuing my graduate edu-
cation in school administration,
and I see educators becoming
more acquainted with the reali-
ties of the will of the people,
and the will of the people is
that we offer our children a bet-
ter and better education, but at
the same time lessen the finan-
cial burden on them as taxpay-
ers. I think we will make more
progress in this direction by a
cooperative effort rather than
making unfounded accusations.
We are coming to see that we
cannot say "impossible." until
we have tried and failed; the
truth is that we will try and we
will succeed."

recently, someone remarked, "Those pines will begin to
grow larger now and make this a much prettier place
than it is already." Jim McNeill, who has more than a
nodding acquaintance with pines remarked, "Those par-
ticular pines won't grow very fast, because they are long
leaf and long leaf pines don't do very good in this area
for some reason or other". He then pointed to another
stand and remarked, "Now those are slash pines, and
they'll begin to grow now with fertilizer in the area, and
proper drainage."
They looked alike to us until Jimmy pointed out the
subtle differences the shape, the difference in the con-
figuration and size'of the limbs and the differences in the
needles. Now, we spend our time looking at pine trees,
practicing our new-found knowledge of how to identify a
slash pine from a long leaf.
A tree isn't just a "tree" and a pine isn't just a\"pine".


tion. Thus, the effective public
school administrator issues and
implements his administration
only with adjustments which will
insure his survival, the survival
of his administrative structure
and workable continuity of his
previous administrative deci-
sions. It may be rightfully said
that every citizen participates in
school administration, or their
reaction is contemplated before
any notable administrative deci-
sion is made.
From time to time the admin-
istrator has to recognize he can-
not please all the people all the
time. If his decisions can be rea-
sonably expected to bring down
upon his administration political
hornetss', he pleads to all non-
politicians a supposed cardinal
rule of the universe, "let us
keep politics out of education."
We have dismissed this absurdity
in previous columns. In response
to any groups the public school
administrator may claim that his
decision rests on his technical
competence; for example, "if
you knew what I knew, and of
course you don't because you are
not trained in education, you
would know why I am making
this decision and agree with it.
I warn you that if you argue with
me I will embarrass you with
my expertise."
Let us use a current example;
you and I, private citizens of
Gulf County, drive past our lo-
cal sprawling air-conditioned and
often carpeted school plants in"
June, July or August. Our mind
considers how it is that these
monstrous plants stand empty
for more than 25% of the year
We think about teachers who
are paid on a nine-month basis
and recall our teacher neighbors
serving as service station attend-
ants in the summer months to
keep body and soul together.
Well, it just doesn't make sense
to you and I, so we go to our
local PTA meeting and ask our


principal why he isn't in favor
of Senator John Broxson's (Chmn
Senate Committee on Public Ed-
ucation) experiments in trying
to reach a year round school
program. We might well hear his
"technical competence" argu-
ment above.
Friends, when my school be-
comes so complex that techni-
cians who run it with my tax
money tell me I am too ignorant
to understand any explanation,
I feel like telling him in no un-
certain terms that maybe he
needs to attend some of his own
elementary. school communica-
tion courses so that he can talk

The big thing going on these days is the rage over the
ancient Chinese practice of acupuncture to cure all ills.
To hear the raves over the values of acupuncture, you'd
think it was better than Black Draught, Syrup Pepsin and
honey and molasses all rolled into one ball.
There's even acupuncture clinics in the United States
now, where patients may go and have themselves cut on
while they are lulled into an unfeeling state with. a long
needle stuck in their arm, leg or other parts of the ana-
tomy. Acupuncture may work. It may do all the things
claimed. It may serve the same purpose as an anes-
thetic while one is having various sorts of surgery.
The practice of acupuncture is for 'somebody else as
far as I am concerned. I really believe it would take more
anesthetic to put me in a state to where I would allow that
long needle to be pushed into my carcas than it would to
put me under enough to do the surgery the acupuncture
was intended to prepare me for. The thought of all those
needles leaves me cold and not in the least anxious to ex-
periment.
I know the Chinsee have used the method for
over 2,000 years, so it's tried and tested. I can't forget,
however, how those Chinese have died like flies over the
past centuries with the panacea of acupuncture at their
disposal while we Americans are the healthiest people on
Earth while having to depend on such primitive methods
as wonder drugs, ether, sodium pentathol and the skilled
hands of a trained surgeon.
I've been "acupunctured" by a needle filled with won-
der drugs many times over the past years, in the hospital
and the doctor's office and that's the closest to the an-
cient Chinese method of treatment I ever want to get.

If any of you see Jimmy Greer in the next few days,
ask him if these are dog days. Jimmy used to keep -me
informed on this important matter, but I haven't seen
him lately to get the official word from Jimmy and his
Grier's Almanac (no kin).
*
Sometimes we have to wonder what special qualifi-
cations it takes to run a government agency. The posi-
tion of the City of Port St. Joe today is one prime exam-
ple of a cat chasing his tail in circles.
The City was told about three years ago to upgrade
its sewage disposal system so that its effluent into St.
Joseph's Bay would meet certain requirements set out by
a government agency. The City was told what to build,
how to build and where to dump the residue. They were
even required to submit plans of the facility to the gov-
ernment agency for their approval.
So the City hired engineers, who drew plans, which
were approved by the government agency as a workable
system and meeting the required standards. So, the
City routinely applied to the Corps of Engineers to ap-
prove their method of introducing their effluent into the
bay, after being treated to 90% pure water. The Corps,
again routinely, sent out notices for anyone to object who
wished to. And who objected? That's right! The gov-
ernment agency who had told the City what to do and
how to do it. That's real organization!

like gangbusters on the TV
screen right from the start.
"Tom Who" was bound to pick
up a solid vote for the Demo-
crats just from his good looks-
and friendly manner with re-
porters.
Then they lowered the boom.
Somebody had to dig up the fact
that he was ill several years ago.
He visited a doctor and spent
some time in the hospital. After
experiencing shock treatments
he was completely recovered and
he developed a reputation of be-
ing a fine senator who was real-
ly going places.
Only thing going against Ea-
gleton was that his illness was
in the mental category. Not in-
sane, nor retarded, just suffer-
ing from overwork and mental
depression. It was an .illness,
simple and pure. And he was
cured of it just as if he recovered
from a gall bladder disorder.
But people refuse to look upon


a mental disorder in the same
light.
Then the columnist Jack An-
derson had to get into the act
and state he had been arrested
for drunken driving. His apology
on television later hardly served
to clear this point up, although
Eagleton proved he was a gen-
tleman in his attitude toward
Anderson.
Now the senator from Mis-
souri must return to the "Tom
Who" category. He is finished in
politics, and many people feel
the country will suffer in the
long run.
Whether they planned to vote
the Democratic or Republican
ticket in November I think many
Americans feel that a great dis-
service has been done to a fine
young man. The dropping of Tom
Eagleton, in the opinion of many
of the voters, was an unpopular
decision. It will hurt the Demo-
cratic cause.
I cannot help but feel sorry
for Senator Tom Eagleton.
Seems to me that a fine young
man who had the misfortune of
being ill several years ago was
shunted aside by politicians who
were afraid to stand behind him
when a crisis, blown out of pro-
portion, suddenly developed.

Tom who? Tom Eagleton,
that's who, brother.
During the Democratic Con-
vention in Miami Beach it was
a foregone conclusion that Sen-
ator George McGovern would be
the .standard bearer for his par-
ty. Major part of the speculation
focused on his running mate.
Who would it be?
Senator Ted Kennedy had first
crack at the slot, but he turned
it down. Florida's governor Reu-
bin Askew also had an offer and
he refused. Then the unknown
senator from Missouri, Tom Ea-
gleton, was selected and he was
so little known that even the
CBS commentator Walter Cron-
kite mis-pronounced his. name.
Even Senator Eagleton called
himself "Tom Who". That was a
month ago, however, and today
he is a symbol of every house-
hold.
Personally, I think Eagleton
was a good choice. He went over

Who's Who 'Book,


On June 17 at 6:00 p.m. the
United Pentecostal Church in
Highland View was the setting
for the marriage of Patricia Ann
Miller and Vince Efford Taylor.
The Rev. Richard Collins offi-
ciated.
The bride's parents are Mr.
and Mrs. Hubert Miller. The par-
ents of the groom are Mr. and
Mrs. James C. Graves of Port
St. Joe.
The traditional wedding' mu-
sic was played by Bill Rich, Jr.
He also accompanied Mrs. Rich.
ard Collins, who sang "Whither
Thou Goest" and "I Love You
Truly". '
The vows were spoken before
an altar decorated with a bridal
arch and a soft arch of candles.
On each side of the arch were
white colonial urns holding large
bouquets of pink and white glad-


oli, mums and carnations. The
pews were marked with colonial
nosegays of pink and white.
The bride was given in mar-
riage by her father, Hubert Mil-
ler. She was radiant in a formal
gown of white silk organza over
peau de soie. The victorian neck-
line and full length sheer sleeves
were finished with bands of lace
and pearls. The skirt flared to a
soft A-line. The detachable cha-
pel length train was silk and
finished at the back and waist-
line with a band of lace and
pearls. She wore an alencon lace
flower cap with veil of English
nylon illusion' which was elbow
length. She carried a colonial
nosegay of white carnations and
white sweetheart roses with
tulle trimmings with white
streamers.
The. bride was attended by her


sister, Miss Debbie Miller, maid
of honor, who was gowned in a
pale blue silk organza floor-
length dress. The round neck
and long sheer sleeves were
trimmed in blue and white lace.
The skirt formed a softly draped
A-line. The headpiece was a
band of lace holding a short veil
of blue illusion.
The bridesmaids, Miss Debbie'
Paul and Ann Peak were attired
identical to the maid of honor
in pink gowns. The attendants'
carried long stem pink roses with
pink and blue streamers.
The little flower girl, Paula
Ward, dressed as a miniature
bride, was gowned in white peau
de soie with- lace trim and veil
of white illusion. She carried a
white basket with blue flowers
and streamers.
The groom chose for his best
man his father, James Graves,
Candelighters and ushers were
Ray Miller, brother of the bride
and Roger Thomas. The ring
bearer was Bobby Dever.
The bride's mother chose an
ensemble of dresden blue silk
knit with lace trim at the wrist
and neck. The accessories were
bone colored and she wore a,
white orchid corsage.
The groom's mother selected
a gown of pale blue knit with
white accessories completing her
outfit. She also wore a white or-
chid corsage.
Mr. and Mrs. Miller entertain-
ed wedding guests at a recep-
tion immediately following the
ceremony. The .table in the re-
ception area was covered with
long white organdy cloths. The
five layer wedding cake, with
wedding bells and a bride and
groom on top,, was flanked on
each side by pink candles in
crystal hurricane lamps. The
lamp bases held delicate bou-
quets of pink carnations, pink
gypsophilia and ivy. The same
trim was used around the base
of the wedding punch.
The bride's book was on a
white covered table and was
highlighted by pink rosebuds.
Matching floral arrangements
were used throughout the recep-
tion area.
Hostesses for the reception
were Mrs. Keith Ward, Miss
Jean Kirkland, Mrs. Myrtle Fox
and Miss Charlene Hampton.
The bride's, going away dress
was beige knit with a yellow or-
chid corsage.
After the honeymoon, the cou-
ple is making their home at
517%2 Fourth Street in Port St.
Joe.
Some of the out of town
guests were Mrs. Mavis Kirkland
of Dothan, Alabama; Mrs. Mary
Ann Givens of Tallahassee; Mr.
and Mrs. Jake Rutherford of Or-
lando; ,Sgt. and Mrs. Millard
Paul, Mr. and Mrs. Robert bans-
by, Miss Pam Owens and Jerry

Flowers that decorate your Flor-
ida garden and can be cut for in-
terior use, offer a double delight.
Not only do they color ypur exter-
ior environment, but they can and
should be used more extensively to
brighten the indoors, where we
spend 80 percent of our time.
Cut-flowers can be used as fresh
bouquets-many lasting a week or
more--or as more permanent dried
arrangements.
Summer annuals which are ex-
cellent for use as cut flowers are
marigolds, cosmos, zinnias, coreop-
sis and the magnificent Gloriosa
daisy, the hybrid version of black-
eyed susans. Of course, many oth-
er summer blooming flowers can
be used. For example, celosia,
globe amaranth, tithonia and many
wild flowers. During the cooler
fall and spring months the selec-
tion of suitable cut flowers is
much greater. Ageratum, snapdra-
gons, calendulas, mums, dianthus
species, sweet peas, nasturtiums
and pansies greatly enlarge the
list of available cut flowers.
Many of the flowers we 'have
mentioned can also be used in
dried arrangements.


For hundreds of years, gardeners
have preserved flowers by drying
and used these for permanent in-
terior decorations. The so-called'
"everlastings" like statice and
strawflower have been most popu-
lar but many additional annuals
can be used. Blossoms are usually
cut when their color is at its peak,
leaves removed and bound togeth-
er in bunches for drying. The
flowers are hung upside down in
a dark, dry place for several weeks.
Flowers other than "everlastings"
have been air-dried or dried by
burying in materials such as sand
and borax. These methods are suc-
cessful for, certain flowers but un-
dependable for others. More re-
cently, a drying agent called silica
gel, has been used. This compound
has the capacity to absorb large
quantities of moisture and is used
to quickly dehydrate cut flowers.
Flaw v minus leaves are buried
in the gel in a closed container
and left for about a week. The gel
must be stored in an air-tight con-
tainer or it will absorb moisture
from the air and lose its effective-
ness. Flowers which can be dried
in this manner include: ageratum,
calendula, China aster, daisies, dah-

Prior to the people electing Leo Kennedy their County
Commissioner 12 years ago, road paving costs rang-
ed from $42,000 to $71,000 per mile. 10 years ago,
Leo Kennedy introduced the soil cement paving pro-
cess to Gulf County. The first paving done under the
s6il cement paving process was the Jones Homestead
road at a cost of $13,644.46 for a distance of 5,050
feet, just 230 feet short of a mile, at less than a
quarter the usual cost. Little or no maintenance on
this road.
Since the paving of the Jones Homestead road, Basic
Magnesia has made available lime reject from their
plant at no cost to the county that has caused a fur-
ther reduction to approximately $10,00 per mile. The
result was approximately a million dollars in savings
to Gulf County in the past ten years.

already overtaxed electricity
producing capability.
"All of these new citizens will
require lights, heat, air condi-
tioning, public facilities, cloth-
ing, recreation and many other
services-all of which 'depend
largely on electricity as a source
of power. Add this increase in
population to already increasing
demands on power by the people
already here, and you have a
power crisis in the making."
Another cause of power short-

While watermelon is plentiful
(during watermelon festival) you
might want to try the following re-
cipe:
WATERMELON ICE ON
THE HALF SHELL
1 medium watermelon
granulated sugar
lemon juice
mint sprigs
Early on day, or four hours a-
head:
1. Cut watermelon in half length-
wise. Carefully cut out all pink
meat to within about one inch of
rim. Cut rim into diamond pattern.
Now remove all seeds from meat;
break meat into 1-inch chunks.
2. In blender container or bowl,
place three cups watermelon
chunks, 1 cup sugar, and 2 Tsp.
lemon juice; blend or mix until
mixture is like apple sauce. Re-
peat until all watermelon chunks
have been used. Now spoon water-
melon mixture into ice cube trays
(you will need 4 or 5).
3. Freeze watermelon mixture
until frozen about one inch in
from edge of trays-about one
hour. Now turn two or three 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 rest of trays; freeze
till firm.
About 20 minutes before serving,
let watermelon ice stand at room
temperature about 10 to 15 min-
utes or until it spoons nicely. Then,
heap serving-spoonsful of it in wa-
termelon shell. Garnish with a few
mint sprigs. Makes about 20 serv-
ings.

Capture Snapper

Randy Walden, Methuselah Robinson and Larry Smith came by
the office last week with this "snapping turtle" they had caught.
Methuselah was an authority on snapping turtles and said this was
a big one. In Ithe photo, they are teasing the turtle with a pencil
trying to make him snap so we would make his picture. The turtle
wouldn't snap so we didn't make the picture. -Star photo

Would Make You A Good
Sheriff
Honestly!
(Paid Pol. Adv.)


I am taking this means of introducing myself, my wife Emmalyn, and our children,
Celia, Cynthia, and Glenn. Our home is at 4115 West 17th Street, Panama City.
My first message to the people of Bay, Calhoun, Gulf, Holmes, Jackson and Wash-
ington Counties is to express my appreciation for the privilege of seeking election
as one of your Circuit Judges.

Twenty-three years of experience in the law have pperared me, I sincerely believe,
to become one of the Judges of the Circuit Court, the highest trial court in our ju-
dicial system.

After you have studied my background and qualifications, I will greatly appreciate
your active support of my candidacy, and your vote in this important campaign.
