State Backs Down from Peninsula Purchase
Statein


Harmon Shields, Director of
the Department of Natural
Resources, reversed his for-
mer stand Tuesday and rec-
ommended to the Florida
Cabinet that they back down
on Their decision to purchase
920 acres of St. Joseph Penin-
sula. Shields was one of the
prime-movers in the decision
to purchase the property and
it.was a committee from his
department which made the
Recommendation for purchase
.to the Cabinet earlier this
month.


It was learned by the Cit,
Commission Tuesday nineh
that the City faces son*:

Hallowe'en

Carnival Sat.

The Port St. Joe Elemen-
tary Hallowe'en Carnival will
beheld this ,'.wi.d-'.', October
25, from one to seven p.m. The
carnival will be held. on the
grounds -..i...'rr to the ele-
mentary school cafeteria.
All types of fun and. games
will thrill youngsters and their
parents, too. Hot dogs, drinks,
coffee and. cake will be avail-
able in the cafeteria. There
will also be an oyster bar
open. ,
There will be no parade this
year.


Shields change of mind
came from the efforts of
Representative William. J.
Rish of Port St. Joe who
advised each of the Cabinet
members and Shields that the
proposed price of $5.4 million
was too much to pay for 'the
property. Rish's contention
was that while the property
may have been worth near
that price in 1973, the property
market in this area at this
time wouldn't justify the ask-
ing price. As a result of Rish's

At the meeting 7T.u .: -, the
new appraisal was presented,
setting the market value of the

The Cabinet had previously
made arrangement with the
bank to hold off on foreclosure
for two weeks in order for the
state to '. the pur-

the state buying the land

ed up'into waterfront lots and
sold off. Shields said the
property might be offered to
the state again at a later date.
"If it is," Shields said,,"we
hope it will be offered at a
reasonable price."
In his letter claiming the
asking price was too high,
Rish pointed out that even in
1973 when the property was
bought and real estate prices
were at an all-time high,
Partnership Investments
bought the 920 acres for $2.35
million and later in the year
sold 870 acres to t"... San

Families Gathered


On Doorsteps


By CHARLIE WEBB
- -- - - -


Most all pioneers had beau-
tiful doorsteps leading up to
the high front and back porch-
es of their homes. The steps
wer comfortable to sit upon
and the families that sat to-
gether on the doorsteps in the
evenings and on Sunday .: '
noons were ,- i t i [ .
families.
Public .- .. were often
held on the front steps of the
S. -, and we all knew
how to line up and sit on the
steps without being told. The
higher ups in town would sit
along the top steps and we
peasants would cluster around
on the lower ones.
We should have been
ashamed of ourselves for be-
ing so weak, but .:.- .
some of us peasants while
seated on the lower steps
could not resist the '--.-. -
to crawl up on top between the
aristocrats to experience the
- ; of : from the top
steps.
We never felt .much differ-
ence while on the top steps,
and would soon climb back
down, much to the relief of the
higher ups. We kind of liked
the idea of the higher and
lower standards of :- 2-- -
on the steps because it was
easier to chew tobacco and dip
snuff from down at the bot-

lar benefit.
Your past :.:': in
-'. -. releases on VA
benefits is very much appre-
ciated. We will continue to
provide you with copies of VA
news releases about new bene-
fits as well as important in-
formation about existing ones.
The target population of the
VA news release is large-ap-
proximately one-half of the
people in this great country
are affected. This includes the
veteran, his beneficiaries, and
family. With your help, we
hope to continue to inform the
veteran community of bene-
fits available to them so that
we may provide the best ser-
vice possible.
Sincerely yours;

stadium was somewhat soggy for Friday night's

me of my bathtub at home one day last week
when one of my grandsons poured a half bottle of
shampoo in it. Both were slippery.
We really need a little attention at the
football stadium. The quarterback club and the
School Board has gone to considerable trouble
and expense to provide nice rest room facilities
at the stadium, but they are unusable at game
time. Some how or other, whether accidentally
or intentionally, all the commodes are usually
stopped up and running over and there is usually
no bathroom tissue or paper towels in the
holders. At times, there are no lights in the rest
rooms.
If this condition exists due to lack of
maintenance, they should be repaired. If it is
done through oversight, then attention should be'
paid to providing the necessary materials and
seeing that the lights have bulbs in them and are
turned on.
If the condition exists through vandalism,
which I suspect is the case, those who do these
things to make the rest rooms unusable should,
first, be ashamed of themselves and second, be
banned from the stadium. If the problem is
vandalism, possibly the schools could have
monitors in the rest rooms for periods of time for
a few games and see if we can't stop it. It's
childish to wantonly destroy or damage public
property. It costs the tax payers money and is
inconvenient to those who must use the facilities.
Every man, woman and child in Port St. Joe
pays city, county and school taxes which go for
these and other purposes. The more things which
are torn up, the more tax money it takes to
repair them and the more it takes in taxes -
your money.

YEARS Y
Isn't It Time You Started?


If you're thinking of buying radial
tires, doesn't it make sense to
buy the most experienced radial on
the road? That's Michelin 'X', the original
steel-belted radial. It's the radial tire
that paved the way for the others. Michelin
'X' is the only radial tire you can buy that
has over 25 years of proven road performance
built in, plus millions of miles of world-wide
satisfied customer driving behind it. The smooth
ride, fast starts, short stops, easy-handling and
firm road-holding are the radial tire characteristics
that Michelin pioneered and perfected. So if you're
thinking Of buying radial tires start at the top,
with the original, most experienced radial Michelin.

Commended by every presi-

become a firmly established

Walsh continued with a brief

since.

He added that before the

were receiving about 10 cents

Two Burglaries, Shooting Solved


Sheriff Raymond Lawrence
announced that the Gulf
County' Sheriff's office had
been kept busy for the last
week or so. Two burglaries
were solved last week and four
subjects apprehended. Schef-
fer's Grocery at Beacon Hill
was broken into, and shortly
after a male juvenile was


'taken into custody and the
merchandise recovered.
Sim's Grocery in Wewa-
hitchka was also burglarized
and one adult and, two juven-
iles were arrested for com-
. emitting that offense. The adult
is presently being held in the
county jail in lieu of $1,000


bond and all of the juveniles
were turned over to the Divi-
sion of Youth Services.
SHOOTING
The Department investi-
gated a shooting which took
place Friday night at the
American Legion Club on
Main St. Lugene Parker of

missed its intended target and
hit Dixon.
DRUNK DRIVERS
Also, four arrests were
made over the weekend for


driving while intoxicated.
Sheriff Lawrence noted that
his department, along with
other agencies, is going to
continue to make every effort
to keep drinking drivers off
the roads. Under recently en-
acted laws, the r .- : for
DWI are severe and there are

ing 90 days in jail as a result of

Hospital Providing Special I

Training for Intensive Care


Municipal Hospital sent two
of its registered nurses to
Pensacola this week to begin a
four-week course in intensive
and coronary care.
Hospital Administrator,
Leon Winkler said Mrs. Gloria
Pippin and Mrs. Ruth Mc-
Clamma will be taking the
course at Baptist :-'.: :-:: in
Pensacola which will qualify
them as intensive and coro-
nary care technicians. "This
will give Municipal Hospital
the same calibre of intensive
and coronary care as is being
offered by any hospital in the
area"; Winkler said. He point-
ed out the hospital has had a
heart monitoring machine for
some time but the trained
personnel has not been what it
should be to gain the most
benefit from what is available
to work with. "We will also be
: more and modern


equipment in this area as soon
as we get through with our
training program", Winkler
said.
The program was started
this week by the -:<..:p",
Board in an effort to give the
best medical care r.: for


people in the Port St. Joe area,
As soon as the two nurses
finish their courses, more
registered nurses will be
trained in the same manner,
with those receiving the train.

living thing in existence.
In the valley of Gethse-
mane, there are gnarled olive
trees that botanists believe-
were growing there at the
time of the Crucifixion.
Closer home in Florida, the
"Senator", a 128 foot tall bald
cypress near Sanford is ap-
proximately 3,500 years old.
Tree chronologists still ar-
gue over the age of the Aus-
tralian baobab trees, some of
which have been used as town
iI'L: or churches. The trees,
usually hollow and v ..r ,i,,r,.:.
giant roots, were once thought
to be the patriarchs of the tree
world. When first encountered
by an % 3.41., -.r in 1794, one
baobab was calculated to be
5,150 years old. It is not un-
common for a baobab to have
a 30 foot diameter or for the
hollowed trunk to sleep 20
people.
However, in .rilf of their
illusion of '., ,. age, they are
probably only a ,..,'A.i..l 2,000
years old or so, botanists have
decided.
In 1912, the Austrapian cy-
cads were believed to be more
than 10,000 years old-a fact
brought out when many were
I, i.e, destroyed by van-
dals. Modern thinking is that
these small trees (which the
natives called burrawongs)
are only around 500 years old.
How do the life spans of
these exotic species compare
with those of American frees?
The two most important trees,
- ... i'. ,,,,,. i; F America are
the Douglas fire and Florida's
own southern pine.
For Douglas fir, the maxi-
mum age is often more than
600 years, but the average life
span is under 350-years. These
great northwestern trees at-
tain almost 100 per cent of
their full .. .. '. in their first
60 years.
The growth rate of the
southern pine is even more
remarkable.. Southern pine
.i.,, lives to be 150 to 200
years old. It reaches its maxi-
mum ,. i., after 80 years,
and attains 65 per cent of its

CONSTANT

ADVERTISING


One step won't take you very far,
You've got to keep on walking..

One word won't tell 'em who you are
You've got to keep on talking.

An inch won't make you very tall,
You've got to keep on growing.

One little ad won't do it all,
You've got to keep them going.

A constant drop of water
Wears away the hardest stone;

By constant gnawin', Towser
Masticates the toughest bone.

The constant, cooing lover
Carries off the blushing maid

And the constant advertiser
Is the one who gets the trade!

Watch for Spooks!


The Florida Highway
Patrol today asked par-
ents and drivers to help
protect the "spooks" that
will be on the .streets Hal-
loween night.
Colonel Eldrige Beach,
director of the Patrol
said, "Added pedestrian
traffic on Halloween
night, plus an increase in
pedestrian ... calls
for a review of safety
rules."
According to Patrol re-
cords, there were 2,091
pedestrians killed or in-
jured in 1974. Of those
killed, .21 percent were
under 15 years of age and
of those injured, 38 per-
cent were under 15.

ways comes first and said
their most important
tasks would be to ... off
of .the roadway, .
traffic and to cross streets
with caution.
Parents were encour-
aged to use makeup for
children's faces'instead of
masks because masks
might limit vision. Beach
also suggested costumes
made of .. colors, add-
ing '. by
making him easier to see
at night.
Beach concluded by
urging "drivers to use
extra caution on Hallo-
-ween because' of in-
creased pedestrian traf-
fic, r ..,.! residen-
tial areas." .
