Gulf's traffic fatalities thus far
this year, have involved local
' people.
Spence apparently went to
sleep at the wheel about seven

Davilla said all the injured


were riding in the same vehicle
which was driven by Luther
Whitaker of Carrabelle. Whita-
ker was traveling West on Fifth
Street. When he approached the
intersection, a car driven by
George S. Coody, 53, of North
Adams, Mass., came out of Wood-
ward Avenue into the path of
the Whitaker vehicle. Whitaker
veered to the right to avoid a
collision, but Coody's car hit
Whitaker's in the left rear. The
Whitaker machine then veered
to the 'left into the median and'


turned over twice.
Coody was charged with fail-
ure to yield, right of way.

Pig Island, located in St. Jo-
seph Bay, in Gulf County has
been added to St. Vincent Na-
tional Wildlife Refuge by Pub-
lic Land Order 5233. The 45.33
acre Island formerly under Pub-
lic Domain was transferred to

Ramsey Clark Naive


Former Attorney General John Mitchell said Ram-
sey Clark was "duped" by the North Vietnamese in his
recent trip there. Mitchell goes on to label Clark as
"naive". That's diplomatic talk for "stupid".
Clark made a big thing out of coming back to the
United States before he made his report about what bad
guys we 'were to continue bombing North Vietnam and
what sweiU guys the Viet Communists were in the treat-
ment of our prisoners.
Clark had a lot to sa, about the bombing of the dikes
which has become the battle cry of the left wingers. The
bpmbing of the dikes most be what it will take to bring
the North Viets to their knees, what with all the world
opinion they are busily stirring up against such a move.
The North Viets have cried to high heaven during
the papt month that the U. S. has bombed the dikes and
our parade of stars to' Hanoi have verified that the dikes
have been damaged and cry out about what a crime against


man and nature it would be if they were bombed. Do
see it? The bleeding hearts say with one breath that
dikes have been bombed and then weep all over the p
about how it would wipe out, the Vietnamese popular
if they' were bombed.
We see one of two things as being the truth. Na
ly: if bombing the dikes would indeed, ,inundate
nation of Vietnam inder water and drown millions of
people either (1) that's a lie or (2) the dikes have
been, bombed, since the nation, of North Vietnam is
parently alike an kicking.
Columnist William Buckley says we shouldd go al
and bomb the dikes. He offers the option that if
dikes are as vulnerable as the Vietnamese say they
it would be the more humane thing to do in the long
to destroy them and end this no-win war here and no
As for Ramsey Clark: aren't we lucky he isn't in
thority in our nation any more?


Stop That Noisy Muffler


Enforcement of Florida's new muffler law has start-
ed. The Florida Highway Patrol says. the law will be
enforced strictly,- and drivers with mufflers that aren't
reasonably quiet may be in trouble.
Mufflers are being added to the check-list at motor
vehicle inspection stations throughout the state. A safe-
ty sticker won't he issued unless a vehicle's muffler is
in good condition.
The new law is designed primarily to reduce noise
pollution. It is in the auto owners'interest to observe it
also to protect passengers from dangerous, perhaps fatal,


fumes. It is a good law even though it may cause m
drivers an inconvenience in getting -faulty mufflers
paired or replaced.
Rusted and coroded surfaces probably will give
most trouble for auto owners who feel their exhaust
tern is in fairly good shape. A large number of cai
expected to fail the initial inspections.
Once the public becomes fully acquainted with
new requirements, however, it is likely that exhaust
teams will be kept in better shape and everyone will b
fit T '

Sland View drawbridge after all. An inspection two weeks
ago turned p the fact that the biggest problem is with
electrical fuses blowing and said fuses being located in
:such a place where it isn't just:.a matter of reaching up,
to put in a new one. ,
As ,A the state engineers pointed out, their only contact
with the bridge is through the tender's report which re-

problems with changing the fuses. The engineers were
aware the bridge electrical system was blowing too many
fuses and had this item on their periodical routine main-
tenance sheet to try and find the cause.

People tend to underestimate the
monthly benefits social security
can pay. According to a recent sur-
vey, only one person in 25 gave
the correct answer to this ques-
you tion:
the
lthe "Let's take a man 35 years old,
?lace with a wife and two young chil-
,tion dren and average earnings of
about $500 a month. If he became
disabled, and couldn't work any
ime- more, about how much do you
the think he and his family would get
her from social security? Or.if he died,
not how much do you think his wife
and children would get? (Just a
a- rough guess'.1'
The question was put to a samp-
head ling of people 18 and over across
the the nation. The correct answer is
are, about $400 a month, according to
run David Robinson, Social Security
run Field Representative for Gulf
ow. County. Effective with the Septem-
'au- ber 1972 increase this would be
close to $500 a month.
"But three out of four people
guessed the social security pay-
ments would be $350 a month or,
less," he said. "More than half
guessed $250 or less. One out of
four guessed $150 or less."
; Social security pays monthly dis-
ability benefits to eligible workers
and their families if the worker is
iany severely disabled and cannot work
re- for a.year or more. Survivors ben-
efits are payable to certain family
members if the worker dies. A
the worker's benefit amount is based
sys- on his average earnings covered by
rs i social security over a period of
years.
"If a 35-year-old worker becomes
the disabled in 1972," Robinson said,
sys- "he and his family could be eligi-
ene- ble for disability payments if he
had worked in jobs covered by so-
icrat cial security for five of the ten
years before he became disabled."
If the worker died, Robinson
said, his wife and children could
start getting payments from social
security if he had worked one
and a half years during the three
years before he died in work cov-
ered by social security.

One thing I found out for sure, I have a lot of com-
pany in objecting to the change of WJHG-TV from NBC
to ABC. The phone has rung off the hook for the past
week with pepole voicing their own personal objections.
One group of teen agers called Friday evening and said
they had clipped out the piece and sent it to the televi-
sion station.
One guy even called up at 7:30 one evening here at
the plant, cussing and raising sand because it meant the
end of his football watching. I should have .been a lit-
tie hot at that. Some people think we never close up shop
and go home.

One thing about operating a weekly newspaper; you
get all kinds of fringe benefits. Like last week for in-
stance. We have a subscriber up in Tuscaloosa, Alabama,
by the name of Mrs. Minnie Evans. Mrs. Evans is a for-
mer resident of Port St. Joe and we played with her boys
back in the "good old days". Mrs. Evans sent me a gal-
lon fruit jar of home-made vegetable soup she had can-
ned and put up for the winter. Mrs. Evans may be saving.
her soup until winter, but mine's already gone.

Praises be! I'm back in the fashion business.
An article in the paper the other day pointed out that
men's pants would be cut with full legs, have pleats and
take a narrow belt in the spring. That's perfectly all
right. I still have several pair with the wide legs, the
pleats down the front right smack dab in the middle.
of the fashion trend.
I won't be completely in vogue, however, since I have
a few pairs of pants with no pleats and cut on the newer
styles (to a point) and as long as they can be worn, I'll
wear them. 1

First Jane went, then Ramsey went, then Pierre went
and now Bob wants to go.
Jane Fonda, Ramsey Clark and Pierre Salinger all
went to Hanoi and came back to report our prison-
ers of war in fine, robust health and the Viet Cong wants
nothing better than to stop fighting. Personally, I think
this is a bunch of bull. The Communists want nothing
but complete control over the Indo-Chinese peninsula and
don't care how many of their people they get killed in the
process. I
Congressman Bob Sikes says we have heard the re-
port from "their" side, now he wants to go and see what
the story is from "our" viewpoint. That seems only fair.
Personally, I think it's a fine idea that Sikes--or
someone who supports the war plan of the president-go
to Hanoi and try to evaluate, from a clear eye, just what')
the Viets are showing off to all of the pinks who have
made a regular trail to and from Hanoi in open defiance
to the laws of this nation.

led and fertilizer costs have
steadily risen. Cities burdened
with demands for every type of
civic service see money for beau-
tification an item that can be
trimmed, after all garbage and
trash disposal, sewage treatment
and law and order .should come
first, they reason.
In an effort to meet the prob-
lem the city of Los Angeles re-
cently turned to artificial flow-
ers and shrubs on one main bou-
levard. With a flourish, a two
mile strip of center strip of plas-
tic flowers and foliage was op-
ened. Park department officials
and municipal leaders pointed
out that the new beautification
was ideal. It would never need
water, fertilizer and labor could
be substantially reduced for
years to come.
Motorists travelling Jefferson
Boulevard had to admit that the
new center strip was a marvel-
ous display. The only way they
could tell whether the flowers
and plants were real was to
stop their cars, get out and feel
them.
There were ;brightly colored
flowers of' every description,
beautiful evergreens, p a 1 m s,
magnolias and other greenery.
No sprinklers were in evidence
pouring water on them. Even the
beautiful green grass was plastic.
Nothikig wbtild ever have to be
replaced.
While budget minded officials
were pleased, along with most
citizens, the nature and flower
lovers were upset. They protest-
ed it was a crime against Nature.
One irate protester even suggest-
ed that the city provide plastic
bees and butterflys to complete
the illusion.
Why stop with the center
strip, they screamed, why not
replant city parks with plastic?
Another' said he thought only
God could make a tree, and he
still thought so in spite of the
paik department's effort. A park
official responded, "Alright. you-
figure out some plastic qr arti-
ficial money that will enable us

afford to go to sleep too.
One~of the facts of life j ti.t their is no way in
the world we can store up large amounts of .
electricity. Somedaymaybie, but not yet
So when it's time for you to start cooking, or
a turn on the air conditioning, it's time for us to
start producing. To generate the power you
need right then and thqre.
-Now, it's another fact of life that Florida is
growing. Andthat by 19$0 our customers will
be needing twice the electricity-they're using
today.
Which means we'll be needing twice the
generating capacity. $880 million worth of new
plants, equiprenttrucks and people over the
next five years alone. We'reiplanning for this
and are working to provide it, right now.
It's a big job. That's why none
of us, not Florida and not

to use nothing but real flowers
and be acceptable to the budget
board, and we will be happy to
go back to the real thing."
In Florida, Tampa might well
find itself forced to turn to plas-
tic grass and flowers unless the
water shortage can soon be sol-
ved. This summer water use re-
strictions have stopped watering
of many public areas. Steadily
rising labor costs along with cost
of all materials and supplies is
making old methods a real prob-
lem.
Unless costs of home beautifi-
cation stay within reason a lot
of private citizens may turn to

to $10.00 to get your lawn mow-
ed today. Plants and shrubs die
and their replacement is costly
both in purchase price and laibr.

On July 8 at 8:00 p.m. the
Long Avenue Baptist Church
was the setting for the rainbow-
candlelight wedding of Miss
Judy Faye Adkison and Wendell
Larry Whitaker.
The Rev. J. C. Odum officiated
at the double ring ceremony.
Pre-nuptial music was pre-
sented by Mrs. Helen Britt, or-
ganist and Mrs. Virginia Arnold,
soloist. The music chosen by the
bride and groom was "Because",
"0 Perfect Love", and "The Wed-
ding Prayer".
Vows were spoken before an
altar decorated with an arch of
white candles against a back-
ground of wedding palms. White
urns holding traditional white
bouquets flanked each side 'of
the wedding scene. Two small
palms graced each side of the
vestry. The family pews were
marked by white nosegays with
'long satin strainers. In 'each
window was placed a candle, to
bring out the setting.
Clio Adkison, father of the
bride gave her in marriage. Miss
Adkison was gowned in a Span-
ish style, full-skirted wedding
dress of alencon lace and silk or-
ganza over peau de sole. The lace
bodice featured a bateau neck-
Iline and long lace sleeves com-
'ing tq points over her hands.
"The full skirt, with deep tiers
of ruffles, ended in a full ca-
thedral train, also formed of
deep lace ruffles. The bridal, veil
of illusion was held by a seed
pearl mantilla. The full length
veil was edged in wide alencon
lace. She carried 'a bridal, ar-,
rangement of white orchids,
white carnations, white roses
and stephanotis on a white Bi-
ble, a gift from her parents. The
onlq jewelry worn by the bride
was a strand of pearls with
matching pearl earrings, a gift
from the groom.
The attendants selected by the

Adult Education Fighting Illiteracy


"The demand for physical
common laborers. is diminish-
ing", James McInnis told the Ki-
wanis Club Tuesday, "and with
that diminishing demand comes
a need for more education to be
prepared for the more technical
jobs". McInnis, director of the
Gulf County Adult Institute,
which provides educational op-
portunities for those who missed
it earlier in life, says the state-
wide program is successfully do-
ing this job and at the same
time reducing the number of il-
literates, in the state of Florida
while the state population is ex-
panding by leaps and bounds.
In Gulf County, Mclnnis said
adults have accepted the pro-
gram as an effective means of
furthering education. "Over 200
adults have received high school


forest capitals, of the world, slash
and other conif rs have to be im-
ported and ca fully hursed, to
mna in Thot InPQm 1tv


diplomas in the past three
years", he said.
The adult education program
provides a curriculum from the
first grade through high school
as well as several specialized
courses in consumer education,
citizenship, math, and vocation-
al subjects.
McInnis reported. that there
are 5,274 adults in Gulf County
over 25 years of age. "Of these,
164 or 12.5% cannot read or
