Star photos better thanB $4,000 over the Phone CompanyCuts In New Dial System through the installation of complete new Direct Distance Dialing equipment which al- lows the customer to dial all types of calls. The Port St. Joe exchange was actually cut into service on January 28, in an effort to give the central office technicians an oppor- .tunity to check out the equip- jnent before phasing in the -6ther exchanges." The first 0+ type call to be dialed through the new equip- ment was made at 6:42 a.m. by State Representative Billy Joe Rish. The change will provide more efficient service with a minimum of operator assist- ance, according to H. Higdon Swatts, Commercial Mana- ger. "The expanded Direct Distance Dialing facilities will mean that long distance cus- tomers will encounter fewer 'busy conditions' and will al- low the dialing of person-to- person, collect, credit card and calls charged to another number by the customer." According to Swatts, popu- lation growth and an increased usage in long distance calling has caused the older equip- ment to be simply strained beyond its capacity. "It was a half-ton truck carrying a one- ton load," Swatts said. The new operator console equipment pro ides a cord- less. computerized operation which will completely elimi- nate the old operator switch- boards The computer will make a complete record of all telephone transactions, will automatically record time and charges and will provide direct dialing from paysta- tions. / Instructions for dialing all types of calls are as follows: -For station-to-station calls within the 904 area, simply dial 1 + the number. -For station-to-station calls to an area outside the 904 area, dial 1 + area code + number -For person-to-person, col- lect, credit card and calls charged to another number within the 904 area, dial 0 + the number. -For the same type calls to an area outside the 904 aera, simply dial 0 + area code + number. Swatts said, "St. Joseph Telephone & Telegraph Com- pany is proud of this new addition and will continue to endeavor to provide fast, effi- cient service to our custo- mers." Kiwanis Begins Ticket Sales for Navy Band Port St. Joe Kiwanis Club began an emphasis this week on their drive to sell tickets for the performance of the official United States Navy Band here in Port St. Joe on March 1. The band is touring the country to aid in the nation's Bicentennial celebration and are coming to Port St. Joe under the sponsorship of the Kiwanis Club. The band will give two performances here in the High School Coliseum at 1:15 and 7:30 P.M. The afternoon performance is being arranged mainly for students in the Gulf County area who wish to attend. Special emphasis is being placed on making arrange- ments for band students from Panama City to Apalachicola to attend the performance. Tickets are available from all Kiwanis members. New Super Market Opens A new super market opened for business here in Port St. Joe this week, with the open- ing of the Saveway Food Store at 510 Fifth Street by George Duren. Duren has leased the build- ing formerly occupied by the A&P, which closed in Novem- ber. He is operating an inde- pendent super market. Duren has been in the grocery business for some few years, operating the Fiesta Food Store at Mexico Bedch with his father I. W. Duren. The new super market op- eration has employed some of the former A&P employees. Duren is announcing the opening of his new market in a two-color page ad on page 12 of this issue of The Star. past months in an attempt to stop the leak. Bidwell said, "The main: problem is that the material which covers the roof is not: made anymore and roofers: are having trouble getting some other material to bond to the old roof. The architects now suggest replacing the entire roof sur- face. As a -result of the leaking roof, the hardwood basketball. floor inside the building has. been damaged and will need repairing after the roof leak is stopped. - Bidwell said the damage is: covered by insurance. " FUNDS AVAILABLE The Board received word this week that more matching money is available to increase the size of the' vocatiofinal education department here irn Port St. Joe. Bidwell said thel Department of Education has said over $100,000 in matching money is available. The Boairt is aiming toward providing facilities for the auto mechan- ics and building trades de- partments and removing them from the main high school building. "This will give us room to expand junior high vocational subjects," Bidwell said.-- NEW LIGHTS The School Board agreed at their meeting Tuesday after- noon to call for .bids for lighting fixtures for the base- ball stadium, hoping to have bids received, material on the ground and installed by the baseball season in March. The Board is already under way with extensive repairs to the grandstand at the baseball park and the addition of the lights would put the facility in excellent shape. In other areas of construc- tion, the School Board is getting close to the date when they will approve the plans for a new gymnasium at Wewa- hitchka. Superintendent Bid- well said the plans for the building are scheduled to be completed within a week or two and a special meeting will be called at the time to examine the plans and for- ward them to Tallahassee for approval. Bidwell said plans for the Port St. joe vocational school expansion are now underway and the Board hopes to call for bids and let contracts on both projects at the same time. Treatment Plant Charge Schedule Under Study George Wimberly, repre- senting Sylvachem Corpora- tion asked the City Commis- sion Tuesday night to call a meeting of the tripartite par- ties to discuss the formulation for billing for Wastewater Treatment plant charges to the three parties involved-St. Joe Paper Company, Sylva- chem and the City of Port St. Joe. Wimberly stressed that he wasn't challenging the charge made to his firm. "I think the charge is fair," he said. He fees the formula used for dividing the operating costs is out of date and inaccurate. Charges are levied against the three parties involved based on three criteria; the volume, amount of suspended solids and the amount of bacteria laden material plac- ed into the system. Wimberly says the percent- ages for each party were first estimated by the engineer for the first year 6f operation and are still being used to compute charges. He said he felt even a re-computation of the percent- ages of use the charges would be virtually the same as they are now. "We need to know what is the proper figure, however, since just a small percentage change will make a considera- ble difference in the charges made," Wimberly said. Commissioner Gerald Sulli- van said an accurate assess- ment of where to place the charges couldn't be made unless a system is drawn up to measure the three flows through the plant and where they come from. Bob Simon, manager of the plant, said he is now measur- ing flows partially on a guess- ing basis. "Every customer of the plant is putting in more effluent than the meters will measure", Simon went on to say a meter is placed at the receiving end from each cust- tomer, but they will not mea- sure the proper volume. "As a result". Simon said, "we are figuring volume, based on the highest reading on the meter. even though they are higher". Sullivan suggested a book- keeping method be set up to accurately disperse the char- ges for different operations in the plant under the three categories: volume, suspend- ed solids and BOD. The Com- mission agreed to Sullivan's suggestion. Wimberly suggested that a quarterly look be taken at the use and charges of the plant in order to keep the charges more current. The members of the tripar- tite were to meet again yes- terday afternoon to further their agreement talks. Last Rites for Arnette Gipson Arnette Gipson, 78, a resi- dent of 261 ,Avenue C, died Monday at Municipal Hospi- tal. He had been a resident of Port St. Joe for the past 30 years, was a member of the New Bethel AME Church, and a member of the Masonic Lodge 123 of Caryville. Survivors include: his wife, Mrs. Christine Gipson of Lake- land: a son. Earl Gipson of West Palm Beach; a daugh- ter, Mrs. Lorraine Carr of Lakeland; eight grandchil- dren, 10 great grandchildren and two sisters, Mrs. Mattie Broxton of Caryville and Mrs. Susie Hodge of Tacoma, Washington. Funeral services were held at the AME Methodist Church Saturday morning at 11:00 a.m., with the Rev. Colvin Griffin officiating. Interment followed in the family plot of St. Mary's AME Methodist Church Cemetery of Cary- ville. Comforter Funeral Home of Port St. Joe was in charge of all arrangements. Commission Asks for 16th Street Paving Repairs The City Commission agreed Tuesday night to re- pair 16th Street at the bridge, work up specifications to bid for a new fire truck and set up a meeting to determine flood insurance rates for the city. Mayor Frank Pate asked the Commission to negotiate with the contractor presently resurfacing roads in the Port St. Joe area to repair the dangerous condition of 16th Street where it crosses the canal in the middle of Forrest Park. Pate said the repairs would cost about $4,000. Attorney Rish suggested the Board call for bids on the project, stating that the con- tractor would probably get the bid and get the work done immediately since he is al- ready working in the area. The area in question is plagued with a muck condition under the pavement which keeps sloughing off and caus- ing dips and waves in the road surface. The condition of the road at this point has reached a very dangerous condition. NEW FIRE TRUCK The Commission assigned Commissioner Ramsey to in- spect a set of specifications to call for bids for a new fire truck in the near future. The last pumper purchased by the city is now over 10 years old. Fire underwriters will not certify a fire fighting appara- tus which is more than 10 years old. Bids for the vehicle will probably called for in the near future, with purchase prob- ably deferred until next year's budget. FLOOD INSURANCE The Board will meet on February 12 in a special meeting with representatives of the Federal Insurance Ad- ministration to discuss the results of a Flood Insurance study prepared by the agency. The purpose of the meeting is to consider a rate for flood insurance for Port St. Joe. The present rate was set by the agency under the temporary plan for a short time only. The February 12 meeting will probably update the rates now charged based on experience and the study. The meeting will be held at 3:00 P.M. in the commission meeting room. CHANNEL MARKERS In an answer to a request from the Commission to plate navigational aid lights on the channel markers in St. Joseph Bay, a letter from the US. Coast Guard this week inform- ed the Commission that the Coast Guard will conduct a survey of the bay and its markers to see what the navigational needs are. The request was made for all-directional lights to be placed on the channel mark- ers to alert boaters operating at night of their presence and avoid a collision with the marker structures. The pirob- lem was pointed out to the Commission by Dave Maddox. - PAGE TWO THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla.

Charles 0. DeWitt, IRS Dis- trict Director for Florida, said that 10 percent of the returns received to date have been without the claim for the $30 credit for each personal exemption. He also reported that more than 15 percent of DOT Lets Bids for Paving Bids totalling $17,665,680.07 on 38 road and bridge con- struction projects were open- ed last Wednesday by the Florida Department of Trans- portation in Tallahassee. In .Gulf County, a 'project totalling $93,846.38 was award- ed to Evergreen Construction Co., Inc. of Chipley, to pave .764 mile of road. The work consists of light grading, sand- clay base with sand-asphalt hot mix, a surface course, ditch pavement and construct- ing small drainage structures at two points: Mitchell Road, from S.R. 22-A in Wewahitch- ka easterly to S.R. 71, and on sary to complete our call anywhere Chipola Ave., from East 4th in the United States if we need the Street in Wewahitchka east to . call recorded for. charges or extra East 7th Avenue. service.

Bank Earnings Down Florida National Banks of Florida, Inc. announced Fri- day net income for the year 1975 of $9.2 million or $0.93 per share, after giving effect to a tax benefit of approximately $4.3 million, compared with $15.7 million or $1.59 per share in 1974. Net income for the fourth quarter of 1975 was $1.1 mil- lion or $.10 per share as com- pared to $3.8 million or $.39 per share for the same period in 1974. Management noted that the .-rdecline in earnings for the year was primarily due to a write-down to market value in the investment securities and bond trading accounts in the total amount of $4.0 million and management's decision to increase the provision for loan losses to $10.4 million, of which $5.2 million was pro- vided in the fourth quarter, as compared tco$.9 million in 1974 with $.4 million being provided in the fourth quarter. The val- uation portion of the reserve for loan losses was $8 million at December 31, 1975, or 1.34 percent of the total outstand- ing loans as of that date. On December 31, 1975 total assets of Florida National Banks of Florida, Inc. were $1,548 million, an increase of 2.7 percent, compared with $1,507 million on December 31, 1974. Net loans were $580.2 million on December 31, 1975, a decrease of 13.7 percent, .compared with $672.3 million a year earlier. Gross deposits were $1,305 million and $1,264 million at December 31, 1975 and 1974 respectively, repre- senting an increase of 3.2 per- cent. the taxpayers who appear to be eligible for the new earned income credit are failing to take advantage of it. Under the provisions of the 1975 Tax Reduction Act, tax- payers are entitled to a $30 credit for each exemption claimed on their tax return. This credit is in addition to the regular $750 allowed for each exemption. However, the new credit does not apply to exemptions for age or blind- ness. The Act also specifies that workers earning up to $8,000 a year and maintaining a house-' hold with dependent children are able to claim an earned income credit. The credit is 10 percent of a worker's earn- ings-up to a maximum of $400-and decreased as in- come rises above $4,000. Mr. DeWitt said that failure to claim the credit for the per- sonal exemption is slowing .down the processing of tax returns and delaying issuance of refunds. "I strongly urge persons who are now complet- ing their tax returns, not to overlook the line for this credit". On Form 1040it is line 16b and on the Short Form, 1040A, it is 13b. Mr. DeWitt said that tax- payers who have already filed their tax returns' and neg- elected to claim the credits need not take any further action at this time. "If a per- son failed to complete the per- sonal exemption credit sec- tion, it will be corrected auto- matically at the IRS Service Center. Persons who appear to be entitled to the earned in- come credit are being con- tacted by our agency to deter- mine if the provision applies in their cases," the Director added. SETAO.INSHRDLU By WESLEY R. RAMSEY L Last week I was reading an article written by a man who re-visited his old home town and came upon a new subdivision which had been built in the town. The new subdivision stood in . the site where an old barn formerly stood in the . middle of a field, abandoned, run-down and a perfect place for a group of little boys to play. This particular author recalled the days when he and his friends had wars and shoot-outs in the old barn with rubber guns. I hadn't thought about rubber guns for years, but I remember them well and the hours of fun and play we had with them as a boy. What has happened to rubber guns? I see a pair of stilts Goats and High Life Unkindness By CHARLIE WEBB --------- -W Wl^. never hurt anyone, because most of us were doing nothing more than mud-cat fishing at night and checker playing during the day. We had be- come fair country checker players, after loosing all in- come, including a good twoo mule farm, while practicing the art of checkers. About sunset the goats in- side of an abandoned store building would put on acro- batic acts by jumping around on the store counters. One small goat from a ceiling-high shelf would jump across the store and land upright on a round, three-legged, meat cut- ter's block. This was the finale of the acrobatics, the goats then began to bed down for the night. Duty, Priviledge Since Americans started casting their votes 200 years ago, the largest number, of eligible voters who have cast their ballots at any one time has been two-thirds of those registered, Steve Cloud told the Port St. Joe Kiwanis Club Tuesday at their noon lunch- eon meeting. Cloud revealed this statistic in his address entitled, "The Right to Vote". The high school senior de- clared voting was a duty, an obligation and a privilege. "If we are to remain a strong nation, we must exercise this privilege intelligently and se- lect men who are honest and capable to speak for us in government". Cloud gave a short history of voting in the United States and how it started. In the begin- ning, selecting governmental representatives was inaugur- ated because of transportation problems. Since it was so difficult for the people to get to the seat of government in Philadelphia, the practice of choosing a man to represent each area began and has continued through the nation's history. The speaker explained how the Electoral College oper- ates. Each state has an elec- toral vote for each representa- tive in Washington. In 1800, the system gave the candidate with the most votes the office of president and the second highest was vice-president. In 1800 Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr received the same number of electoral votes. The decision then went to Congress and Jefferson was elected president since Congress felt it was the will of the people that Jefferson lead the nation. Several changes have been made since that time in our voting laws and each time, the change made the vote avail- able to more citizens. .Guests of the club were Bob Roseen of Albany, Ga., Billy Buzzett of Monticello and Key Clubbers Sandy Sanborn, Jeri Lewis and Pam Smith. A young father came to see me. He needed someone to confide in. "I've got some trouble," he said. "But don't worry about me. The Lord and I can handle it." He was triumphant in trou- ble. And so was David. He spoke of "my trouble" in Psalm 142:2. He-was in dis- tress; and those who were with him were in debt, and everyone was discontented. What a crew. What did David do? Did he sulk over his troubles? No! Like a rocking chair, brooding keeps you moving, but it does not get you any- where. Worse than that, it tortures your mind without solving the problem or cleans- ing the conscience. One night, in what we thought was fun, but in reality unkinidness, "high life" was poured on the goats. "High life," was a chemical that produced intense burning sen- sations. In great pain the goats bolted from the store to- fiever return with their won- derful goat acrobatics. I never understood why we felt guilty for so long about being unkind to the goats. Perhaps the image creating by mistreating any living creature is difficult to erase from the heart. Maybe in our unkindness to the simple, but living goats was an unforgettable guilt. Lasting forever and forever. Artifacts Class On Thurs. Nites Offered by GC A course on Indian artifacts, conducted by Gulf Coast Com- munity College will begin classes Thursday, Feb. 5 from seven to nine p.m., EST. at the high school. The course will include a four-hour field trip. James Haisten will be the instructor. The course will cover locating, collecting and identifying Florida anthro- pological specimens. The course will last for six weeks, with a fee of $14.00. Did he give in to self-pity? No. A self-pitying person is a pitiable person. The more you complain, the more you will have to complain about. He called on the Lord. He said, "I showed Him my trou- ble." So did a young wife. She was crippled by disease, but not by despair. She was a happy Christian. "What is your secret?" said a friend. "I have God's tele- phone number," she said. "I can call on Him anytime. His line is never busy. He always answers. It's Jeremiah 33:3, 'Call unto Me, and I will an- swer thee, and show thee great and mighty things which thou knowest not'." Why not call Him now! .. .. now and then, but the rubber gun seems to be a thing which vanished into history. I remember when us boys used to haunt the service station in our little town back in Oklahoma, scrounging for an old blown-out automobile inner tube with which to make our rubber gun ammunition. When rubber gun season would come around, Momma would try and keep a sharp eye on her clothes pins, since a clothes pin is a vital part of a rubber gun and hers had a way of vanishing when the boys started making the guns. She never did complain too much unless we started taking too many clothes pins. I guess she knew there were worse things we could be doing and as long as we were occupied with rubber guns, we were leaving something else alone. There was an art to making a really good, potent rubber gun. You took a board about a foot long and sawed it in the shape of a gun. Then, a strong clothes pin was nailed to the back of the handle and wrapped with one of the inner tube bands cut for ammunition. Some boys made guns as long as two feet long and had so many rubber bands wrapped around the top of their clothes pin to give it strength enough to hold the rubber band in place that it took both hands to mash the clothes pin enough to release the rubber band. Some boys would get real artistic and cut four notcdes in the barrel of their gun just in front of the clothes pin, put a nail in front of the last notch with a string attached. They would then load rubber bands in the notches, to be released by pulling up on the string underneath. Then a rubber band would be put in the clothes '1 ptingriiand another stretched across the back of the clothes pin to be released by pushing up on it with the thumb. Thus, he had a six shooter. If you didn't have the money to buy a B-B gun or, cag pistol, the old trusty rubber gun had to mak do. In a lot of ways it was a lot more fun. I was reading an editorial in an area paper the other day in which the editor was telling about a report from some American travellers who had visited China. The Americans gave 1 glowing accounts of how the Chinese have the right to food, shelter, clothing and medical care. All were employed and there was no inflation. The people were healthy and were provided with medical care. Whoever was making the report gleefully gloated, "The people there are freer than we are". Hogwash! My poodle has all the advantages the Chinese do and so does virtually every pet in the United States. Would we aspire to be like they are, pampered and petted but still told what to do and given only what the master wants them to have? I wonder how many Chinese would choose, if he had the choice, to be eating steak instead of rice or living in the middle of a one-acre field rather than in a crowded apartment house with only two rooms to a family of 10. How many i would rather travel by automobile rather than walk or ride a bicycle. How many would just as soon go where they wanted without passing through check-points? How many would choose to select their own vocation rather than have it selected for them? How many would like to attend church in the open? How many would* actually like to tell their leaders they are doing wrong and cast a vote against them? How many would rather have their government officials ask them for their vote rather than be told who they , would vote for? Free? Those who gave the report might do well to look up the word in the dictionary and see what it means. I have been anxiously awaiting some of the villifying attacks against the Soviet Union and Cuba for their role in Angola just as they appeared when the United States was trying to save Vietnam.

Guidance Clinic to Study Area Needs The Gulf County Guidance Clinic, located at 311 Williams Avenue, is a local community health center that has been serving Gulf County's mental health needs since January, 1972. Prior to that time mental health problems were handled on a part-time basis by indivi- duals coming over from the Bay County Guidance Clinic. Dr. Wayne Conger has been serving as the Director of the Clinic since July, 1973, and is Most everyone knows the value of a dollar, but what's a credit card worth? A lot of grief, if you lose it. Those' little pieces of plas- tic that make doing business both cashless and conven- * ient, can become a costly lia- bility if you don't know ex- actly what to do when they become lost or stolen. Thanks to federal law, the day is past when you could be forced to pay for literally everything that might be charged on a lost or stolen credit card. That law doesn't, however; eliminate all the risk of carrying credit cards. It could still cost you a sizeable amount of money if you fail to act quickly and properly when one turns up. missing. Basically,: the law now limits a card holder's liabil- ity to $50 if the card is lost and someone else charges merchandise on it. That may not sound like a lot, but if you're like some of us who carry a -half dozen or more credit cards, your lia- bility could easily add up to several hundred dollars if they fall intq the wrong hands. Here are a few pointers that just might save you a lot of grief and money: 1) Immediately, if you haven't already done it soon- er, make a list of all the credit cards you carry, in- cluding company names, ad- dresses and account num- bers. 2) Destroy any cards that you don't need or don't use. Why risk losing $50 by carry- ing around something that you don't even need? 3) If you do lose your cards, get out your list and get busy. Your liability for charges made on your credit card stops the moment you notify the issuing company that it is lost. If the card is issued by a local company, go to their of- fices and notify, them imme- diately, IN WRITING, that the card is lost. If the company is out of town, send them a telegram with the bad news. You could write the company a letter, of course, but the mails take time and a lot of charges might be put on your card before your letter was delivered. The cardinal rule should be, don't lose your card in the first place. Treat credit cards just as you do cash. But if they do become lost, know what to do and do it im- mediately. (AFNS) now in the process of expand- ing its service. Dr. Conger feels it is very important that the Clinic gets the help of the individuals within the com- munity in order to both im- prove and expand the services in the most beneficial way. In order to determine how best to meet the needs of the Gulf County residents, he feels it is important to go directly to the residents land receive input regarding their ideas. Thus, the Gulf County Gui- dance Clinic will be conduct- ing a needs assessment survey to allow the residents to give direct input into the develop- ment of more adequate men- tal health services for them. The Gulf County Guidance Clinic will be surveying ap- proximately 500 residents of Gulf County as a means of finding out what services the Clinic needs to provide. It isexpected that the entire study will take approximately three months with the first questionnaires having been mailed on January 29. If you are one of the .families that received a questionnaire from the Clinic in the mail, you can help greatly by filling in all of the blanks and returning the questionnaire in the envelope provided as soon as possible. It is important for the indivi- duals receiving the question- naire to realize that the Clinic is not interested in knowing their names and would prefer that they do not write their names anywhere, on the ques- tionnaire that is going to be returned to the Guidance Clinic. The individuals who received, the questionnaires were selected randomly from the population of Gulf County. The Board of Directors of the Guidance Clinic, as well as Dr. Conger, hope that you will help them serve you and 'the community better in the future by completing the ques- tionnaire and insuring that it is returned to the Gulf County Guidance Clinic.

Port St. Joe and Wewa- hitchka are included in a request recently submitted by both the West Florida Re- source Conservation and Dev- elopment Agency and the NWFPAC to the USDA Soil Conservation Service for soil surveys. Acceleration of soil surveys in coastal county municipalities in Northwest .Florida has been requested. Soil surveys are needed by these towns and urban areas in their planning for residen- tial growth and expansion of community facilities, declare leaders of both regional or- ganizations. Soil surveys can help com- munity planners determine the most appropriate areas for urban expansion, notes Barry Boswell, executive director of the NWFPAC. Soil surveys show areas that are subject to flooding and describe the soil .properties that affect septic tank absorp- tion fields. The soil data can help planners in zoning flood plains, in determining the suitability of areas for various uses, and in applying the soil and water consideration of sub-division regulations and building codes to specific developing areas, Boswell ex- plained.

David Bidwell 2t2-5 Kiwanis Clubs Are C o-Sponsors Naval Lab Hosting Science Fair The Naval Coastal Systems Laboratory will again be the setting for the 15th annual Region 2 Science and Engi- neering Fair. and Talent Search on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, March 18-20. This marks the llth consecu- tive year NCSL has hosted the event. Although the fair is still some two months away, com- mittee members have bden / busy the past few months and plans are well underway to make this the biggest and best event in its history, according to Fair Director Tom Coggins of the. Diving and Salvage. Department at NCSL. Serving with, Coggins are committee chairman Max Lippitt, talent search; Ed Hig- don, finance; Cas Callahan, judging; Don Taylor, registra- tion; Charles Dickson, awards; Kitty Clark, publi- city; Billy Boyette, facilities; and Dick Lovejoy, monitors. The Region Two fair is a major stepping stone to higher honors for students from the six-county area of Bay, Gulf, Calhoun, Holmes, Jackson" and Washington who aspire to be scientists and engineers of the future. Preliminary hur- dles they must first pass are the individual school science fairs, followed by respective county competition to decide participation in the tough regional event. The key to the success of the event at this stage is the science coordinator in each school. Working closely with the Fair Director, the co- ordinators are responsible for publicizing, distributing nec- essary forms, answering ques- tions, and creating interest at their respective schools to en- stire that maximum partici- patiori is encouraged ahnd deadlines are met. At the county level science competition, respective coun- ty science fair coordinators are tasked with choosing the best to compete in the Region Two event, from where win- ners are sent to state competi- tion 'and eventually to the International Science and' Engineering Fair. The Florida State Science Fair and Talent Search will be held this year in Panama City, on April 22-24. This marks the first time Panama City has hosted the state event. The 27th Inter- national Science and Engi- neering Fair will be held in Denver, Colorado, on May 9-15. Coggins pointed .out that another "first" has been scored in Region Two history. This year, for the first time, the Navy Laboratory has a co- sponsor, Region Two Kiwanis Clubs, who will shoulder a large portion of the financial burden. Last year's fair attracted over 170 contestants in the science-engineering junior and senior division, and nine competed for honors in the talent search for senior high students. Held in conjunction with the science fair, the talent search offers students a chance to give oral presenta- tions of technical papers des- cribing their own investiga- tions. The regional event is a huge undertaking. Its success is dependent upon support, co- operation, and hard work from science teachers, county coordinators, communities, the students themselves and many others. Coggins pointed out that money donated by merchants and sponsors is used for prizes for the students anol to pay some of their travel expenses to the state and international events. None is used for administration or overhead, with all people in- volved donating their time and personal efforts, Coggins added.

I am very con an alcoholic? rood, hat so many different defini- in alcoholic is? .tl one person,- ng an alcoholic nd when I talk person, he gives other different infused. What is Sincerely, H. M. to stop drinking. The "why" you think is right may even be the wrong reason. Ma ny times you hear people say. "If he * only-kne why he drin ,then he would probably stop drink- ing". This does not help be- cause the "why" cannot take away the addiction. Knowing "why" doesn't help the alco- holic from drinking, but :per- haps after he stops the drink- ing, knowing "why" may help him stay sober. The only thing I can say to your husband is that maybe he should visit his local Alco- holism Counseling and Infor- mation Center and find out if he really does have a problem. I also think you should go with your husband, or by. yourself if need be, in order for you to understand more about the disease itself. Sincerely, Mr. Norwood Any questions concerning alcoholism, submit to Dexter Norwood, Panhandle Alcoho- lism Council, 321 Reid Ave., Port St. Joe. The phone num- ber is 229-3515. CARD OF THANKS We wish to take this oppor- 'tunity to thank everyone for the food, flowers, cards and other acts of kindness extend- ed us at the time of the death of our mother. Al Smith & Family Dear H. M.: People have different defini- tions as what an alcoholic is because of the contacts with alcoholism in their lives. If they know, of a person whom they consider to be an alco- holic, their idea of what an alcoholic is comes from that contact. Most people's defini- tion of an alcoholic stems from their attitudes toward alco- holism and these attitudes are formed by the contacts they may possibly have had in their lives. An alcoholic is a person whose drinking interferes with some part of his life. If it interferes with his social life (family, friends, etc.), his eco- nomic well being (loss of job, spending needed monies on drinking, etc.), his health (falling down, heart trouble, cirrhosis of the liver, etc.), and-or his loss of control over the use of alcohol, then we consider that that person might possibly be an alco- holic. If a person does have any one of those problems with his holism. Sincerely, Mr. Norwood Dear Mr. Norwood, My husband has a drinking problem. I feel that he is an alcoholic. Many times I have tried to tell him why he drinks but he doesn't listen and doesn't believe me. Could you please explain to him why he should listen. Sincerely, T. S. Dear T. S.: If you know the reason why your husband is drinking, then it will help only you to under- stand. I must caution you though, that even profession- als don't know why a person drinks. They have many ideas, but the "whys" don't help the alcoholic. Knowing the reason "why" does not help most alcoholics fast, and Special Milk Pro- grams for the remainder of this school term.
