City Budgeting $2,230,692


City tax payers will be called on to pay
$24,000 more in taxes during the fiscal year
in the new budget drawn up in its final
stages this past Friday in a special meeting.
While the tax take is increased, the City has
established the same mill rate as last
year-7.5.
The new budget will be increased over
last years item r .. $45,838 for a total of
$2,230,692.00.
The General Fund will require
$654,364.00 for ..j,: Water and Sewer
Fund, $260,230.00 and the Wastewater
Treatment Plant, $1,316,098.00 for a grand
.total of $2,230,692.00.
A complete recap of the new budget can


be found on ;- : rire of this week's issue of
The Star.

increases in ,.cc ipts this-new year. In
addition to the I'"0.4C2 increase in taxes
there will be :,i,.000 r:R' in 4*,'.', taxes,
;:- ,. more .iredte taxes, $9,380 increase
in ;::''.- e::'r fees and ;, ..
in Revenue : r ir. t r, The C.7:, received
about t- '.' Re' en-e ..:r i last
year, but the indbm6ewas received after the
budget was *. '-:9 r and was not included.
All of this& increase '. :'. the small
increase in the overall budget is due to the
fact the City carried over i'7 in cash
last year and will hqve only $27,132 left at


the end of -: -. r'.- budget year.
S*' -: ".,". increases in revenue are
shown in the Water and Sewer receipts

pletely :'. .'. in out in short order along
with about $50,000 more. This year ,..


. .,-i, .,]'".:.r item will contain $119,000 and
could be a big source of carry-over cash for
the 1974-75 budget as the Hospital is now
back on its feet and o'r-"- igit in the black
with small deficits 'expected in some
months.
Other increases, in expenses are $500
more in the City Clerk's ,ffc'e. $11,000 more

Two Hurt As Car and


Truck Collide On 98


Two men and three young
boys narrowly escaped death
in an accident Friday after-
noon involving a log truck,.
and a sedan.
The accident occurred on
Highway 98 at St. Joe Beach
when a log truck driven by
Earlie Anderson about 60, of
Port St. Joe turned over on
the sedan driven by Jerry
Glen Thornton, 33, of Colquitt
Ga. Thornton had three
young children in the car
with him and one, his son,
Tyler Thornton age three was
taken to Municipal Hospital
with a brain concussion,
according to Highway Pa-
trolman Al Harrison.
Thornton was treated for
minor injuries and Anderson
was taken to Municipal
Hospital for treatment of
shock and other injuries.
Anderson was trapped in the


truck for about 45 minutes
after the accident before he
could be cut out. The Port St.
Joe Volunteer Fire Depart-
ment stood by until Anderson
was removed in case of fire
from the diesel fuel leaking
out of the truck.
According to Trooper Har-
rison, both vehicles were
travelling east on U.S. 98
when Anderson started to
pass the automobile. Thorn-
ton then attempted a left
turn, pulling into the path of
the truck. Anderson hit his
brakes causing his trailer
load of logs to swing around
and overturn his truck. The
load of logs slammed against
the side of the Thornton auto,
caving it in.
Trooper Harrison said
charges of improper change
of lanes will be filed against
Thornton.

Bargaining .Time


It's bargaining time in Port St.
Joe and reports filtering out of the
sessions between the town's largest
employer, St. Joe Paper Company
and the firm's operating unions, are
that, thus far, both sides have agreed
to disagree.
While this is a normal process
in collective bargaining, the first
thought which comes to the mind of
those not directly ir.'.-' ] .but al-
most totally 'dependent on the out-
,come of the 1,r;.(nin, is the me-
mory of the disastrous b.t.,,..r,'n

agreement over bargaining.
Such a r. 1I,,, '. isn't easy to for-
get, and any ,,.. r,ti.,Pa or h h,,,. .-hI that

Bend Boating Due Some

Navigational Improvements


l,'.:ri_ safety along the
"Big Bend" on Florida's west
coast will soon be improved
by installation of a system of
navigational aids along a
stretch of some 70 miles, an
announcement from U.S. Sen.
Lawton Chiles' office said
this week.
Six new steel-type aids will
tie 'in with three existing
buoys to provide navigational
assistance to boaters between
Cedar Keys and St. George
Sound off Carrabelle. The
,nine aids .encompass a dis-
tance of 110 nautical miles


called by boaters the "lone-
some leg."
Sen. Chiles was notified of
approval of the project by the
Coast Guard. He had been
working on it for about a
year since learning of the
need from Red Marston,
*-:.i:.:I: editor of the St.
Petersburg Times,
According to the Coast
Guard, the aids will be
located eight to 10. miles
offshore in 18 to 23 feet of
water with 10 to 14 miles
between them.
They will be on five-pile


steel dolphins, 16 feet above
water, will be lighted and will
display red triangular day-
marks. They will be visible'
for up to seven miles at night
under good weather condi-
tions.
Increased structural design
is required to accommodate
the offshore weather and sea
conditions of the Gulf of
Mexico, the Coast Guard told
Sen. Chiles. Installation bids
are being received and the
schedule for :;, .'...q : of
the project will be announced
later.

Everybody who has lived in Port St. Joe for'
any length of time knows Gus Creech. Gus and
his brother, Ke-.nh. have been in the laundry
and dry cleaning business in Port St. Joe almost
, since anybody could afford to have his pants dry
cleaned.
Gus is a jovial sort. As a result, he has prob-

Devane Williams, editor of the Holmes
r.,,t.. Advertiser, did something not many are
'doing these days he congratulated the Holmes
..',,. ,. School Board for increasing taxes to pro-
perly fund the school "operation.
One of the foibles of the State taking over
all these expensive operations. is coming home to
roost now. Whern the State takes over the finan-
cial i-2 .:-.. .i1itf: they also make the.rules by
which the game is played.
As editor Williams pointed out, the State
now has a new formula for financing schools.
The "catcher" is the "cost-of-living factor" which
makes one county eligible for more money than
others. Williams points out the state has pegged
Holmes' "cost-of-living factor" .at 91% (as they
did with Gulf County, also) while Dade County
has a factor of 110%. This means Holmes (and
Gulf) gets $526.89 per student from the State of
Florida while Dade gets $584.79. per student due
to this "cost-of-living factor".
The counties are left up to their own devices
to raise the rest. Williams praised his Board be-
,cause they dared to do so in spite of sure-to-
come opposition.

The Lucedale, Miss., "George County Times"
reports a sign in a window of a super market
which advertises T-bones for 59c a pound. But
in smaller letters at the bottom, it says: With
Meat, $2.08 a pound.

'ar career with the Florida
eark Service, now a division

.Her professional career
'ith the Park Service dates
ack to November 11, 1955,
when she became the first
urator of the new Constitu-
ion Convention State Mus-
-um. The local museum was
createdd by an act of the State
Legislature t :..:,,* a bill
introduced by State Repre-
sentative Cecil G. Costing, Jr.
The museum was opened to
the ,:.c;': December 16, 1955;
It contains interpretive
exhibits ie; r r the fram-
ing and signing of Florida's
first Constitution and the
contemporary -history of-the
famed city' of St. Joseph.
Coming to Port St. Joe in
1938, from her native state of
Georgia, Mrs. Brinson was
curator of the museum until
1959 and served as a part
time -Tp,,,.' until her
retirement. In addition to her
museum duties Mrs. Brinson
has been very active in local
'historical groups including
The St. Joseph Historical
Society and The Gulf County
Historical Commission. She
was instrumental in having
Dr. James 0. Knauss's
,, **I .. e. work, The Rise
and Fall of Old St. Joseph,

at the museum. She
assisted in -'.,,-r;T,:. mater-
ial for the pamphlet The

sion and i -.'.i1 ri. of the
museum. This .. ':' was
completed when, the museum
was. reopened to the public on
October 28, 1966 after being
closed for sii months to
accomplish .the work. As
curator she was responsible
for many artifacts being
donated to the state for
S[,\,', and- study.

Mrs. Brinson has been

'.:.r to an announce-
ment issued by the Game and
Fresh Water Fish Commis-
sion, the 1973-74 .season for
waterfowl '. open one-half
hour before sunrise on


pT,..".:- :. .- Day, Novem:
ber 22, and continue with'
S-i'i". u ,'-!;'.: "'. r Janu-
ary 10.
In addition to the regular
statewide season there will.
be a special scaup "bluebill"
only season in designated
areas. This special season
will open January 12 and
continue :.- January 27;
Florida hunters will again
be able to harvest migratory
waterfowl ;..:.-: r; to an
.'..: ..-t point system .
Hunters will be allowed a
total of 100 points per day
M...,. the ducks will be
assigned a poin-t valve
i ::..-1,r -:to species.
Point values are as follows:
100 points-Fulvous tree
duck; 70 points-Florida
duck, black duck, wood duck,
hen mallard, hooded mergan-
ser.
Ten points-Blue winged
teal, scaup, sea ducks,
baldpate and mergansers
other than the hooded mer-
ganser.
Twenty-five points-all
other ducks not listed above
except no open season on
Canvasback and redhead.
There will be no open
season for goose hunting,
however, hunters will be
allowed a bag limit of 15 coot
per day with a total
possession of 30 after the first
day of hunting.
According to the Commis-
sion the point system encour-
ages selective shooting and
provides a measure of
protection to the species that
are in low supply. The real
key to successful hunting
under the point system is the
ability to identify waterfowl
and hunters are urged to
brush up on their duck
identification due to changes
in the 1973-74 noint system
