THIRTY-NINTH YEAR, NUMBER 31 HE STA Industry Deep Water Port Fine People Safest Beaches in Florida PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA THURSDAY, APRIL 1, 1976 t Library Site Selection Made Committee Recommending Corner of Courthouse Property Gulf County's ad hoc library committee will recommend to the County Commission at their meeting on Tuesday, April 13 that a new libi-ary for Port St. Joe .be built on county property near the Gulf County Courthouse here in Port St. Joe. The committee has been at work for several months getting the preliminary steps out of the way for construction of a new library building at the request of the County Commission. The committee will also recommend that architect Charles A. Gaskin of Wewahitchka be instructed to begin working up preliminary plans for a building of at least 10,000 square feet, to serve the needs of the citizens in the Port St. Joe area. For the past several months, the commit- tee has been investigating possible sites to put the facility, but prices asked for the property which the committee felt would be acceptable was too high in price, according to their thinking. The cheapest price quoted on property, which happened to be located on Long Avenue in the vicinity of Third to Fifth Street was $6,000 per lot. Since the facility would need several of the 30 foot lots in the area, the committee felt the price was too high. In a meeting Tuesday night, the commit- tee asked -County Commissioners Eldridge Money, Silas Player and Otis Davis, Jr., if the library could have part of the Courthouse property. The Commissioners gave their assurances the land was available at no cost, since the County owns more than 40 acres at the Courthouse site. Tentatively, the committee and the three Commissioners present are looking at a two acre plot of land at the intersection of Fifth Street and Knowles Avenue. GRANT APPLIED FOR County Clerk George Y. Core reported to the committee he had learned a state agency, the Department of State, Division of Library Services, rpay have some funds available for grant. Core reported, "It was one of those things where an application had to be turned in immediately", so Core said he filed an application for the County in the amount of $150,000. The County has a gift of a sizeable sum from a private citizen here in Port St. Joe to construct a new library building here in Port St. Joe. The gift isn't enough to foot the entire bill, but it will make a sizeable dent in the cost. The County has some federal revenue sharing money set aside for library buildings, but there is a possibility that with the local gift and a possible grant, the trust fund which has been set aside may not have to be touched for the new building. Committee Chairman Bill Simmons, said he was gratified with the progress made thus far in the working up of recommendations to make to the County Commission. "We can already recommend the place, the size and the possible financing of the building", said Simmons. "Now we hope we can recommend that bids be taken in July and the facility completed by the first of the year". Simmons may be rushing his "wishes" just a bit. Dennis Arnold presents DCT sponsor,.Lamar Faison with a gift following the annual banquet Friday. -Star Photo Witten Speaks to DCT Club Drawing from the theme of the Diversified Cooperative Training class, Fred Witten, guest speaker for the evening, stressed the importance of the Bicentennial year and our responsibilities to the nation as citizens. Witten was speak- ing to the students at their annual. banquet. held, in, the Commons Area of the High School Friday night of last week. Witten stressed the point that the people need to use the Bicentennial celebration as a means to get back to some of the "old ways". He pointed out that power to keep our nation great comes ultimately from the people. "We must re-dis- cover what patriotism means . . We need to put country above individual principals." The local attorney said it is important that the nation rely on its people and that they exercise their rights properly, be aware of what government is doing and express their opinions. During the evening, the DCT students honored their em- ployers with a steak dinner, prepared by the students. In developing the program for the evening, Dennis Arnold Environmental People Call for Meeting Friday with Commission Officials from the state De- partment of Environmental Regulation will meet with the City Commission and contrib- uting members to the Waste- water Treatment Plant Fri- day afternoon, to discuss whe- ther or not to issue an operat- ing permit for the treatment facility here. The DER is reportedly dis- turbed over an analysis report turned in for the month of February, which wasn't as good as it should be. Plant manager Bob Simon said a number of things contributed to the bad report including start up of St. Joe Paper Company, an increase in flow and overhaul of the areators in the system. Simon said the aereators were being taken out of the settling pond and overhauled and could have been a great factor in the report. The firm which made the components are re-working the machines after they proved to be too light for the job. Simon said the DER was just about ready to give the plant an operating permit after nearly a year of monitor- ing output and checking its chemical content. "Normally, they give a temporary operat- ing permit first for a period of time, but we were going to get our permanent permit if this bad report hadn't showed up", Simon said. Since the plant went on the has operated on the construc- tion permit until it was found if it would meet state require- ments for treatment. At the meeting Friday af- ternoon will be representa- tives from the DER office in Gulf Breeze, City Commis- sion, St. Joe Paper Company and Sylvachem Corporation. Simon said the plant could take care of what it was designed to do but in times of unusual circumstances such as happened in February, the report will not be what it should be. The influx of a high load of material to be treated with part of the plant down resulted in the bad report. Debbie Kelly Wins Spelling Contest Fred Witten gave the welcome, followed by the invocation, said by Scotty White. Dennis gave the DCT creed and Archie Shackleford gave the closing remarks. Cindy and Janet Murphy provided entertainment for the evening as they sang several songs of patriotic ori- gin. The class presented their director, Lamar Faison, with a gift at the close of the program. After nearly a two hour struggle with 26 other contes- tants, Debbie Kelly won the seventh and eighth grade spel- ling bee at Port St. Joe High School Friday morning by spelling "supersonic" and "lingo". Debbie, an eighth grade student and Joanne Freeman, the last speller left standing from the seventh grade, spell- ed it out in the finals, after a lengthy elimination contest. Joanne missed the word "sup- ersonic" and Debbie spelled it. She had to spell an addi- tional word correctly to win the match. When Marion Craig, who was calling out the word to the contestants, gave her the word "lingo", Debbie spelled it correctly to win the match. She will now represent Port St. Joe Junior High School in , the county spell-off. Joanne didn't give up easily. In the seventh grade elimina- tion contest, her final foe, Donna Bailey, had missed the word, "zoological". Joanne spelled it correctly and then spelled illuminablee" to get the chance at Miss Kelly, the eighth grade champ. Debbie Kelly and Ray Pence were the finalists in the eighth grade contest and fought it out for nearly 30 minutes before Ray missed the word "orbi- tal". Debbie spelled the word correctly then spelled "dob- bin" to win the contest. On four occasions, Pence missed his words, giving Debbie the chance to win, but she, too, missed the words and the contest proceeded. Pence mis- sed "armadillo", "glutton", "scapegoat" and finally "or- bital", before Debbie could capitalize on his mistakes. Both grades had a total of 27 contestants when the match started, but after the first Another Ambulance Delivered Gulf County received deliv- ery of its third vehicle this week with receipt of a modu- lar type ambulance mounted on a one ton vehicle chassis. The new vehicle will be stationed here in Port St. Joe and will serve as a back-up car for the entire county. The county has been served for the east year and a half with two vehicles, one station- ed here in Port St. Joe and one in Wewahitchka. Local squad chief, Dick Lamberson went to Orlando Tuesday to take delivery on the new vehicle from Starline Enterprises and drove the car to Port St. Joe Tuesday afte- noon. The new vehicle has several advantages over the present machines. The ambulance pod is a separate urit from the truck and can be removed and placed on a new truck when the present one wears out. It is a heavier vehicle, making it safer to operate and able to carry more equipment. According to Lamberson, the new emergency machine will be equipped with a port- able suction unit, an air chisel, AC inverter and extrication equipment. The new machine is the latest thing in ambulance equipment and brings Gulf County to a par with any county in the state as far as equipment goes. The new ambulance was purchased on a bid price of $17.725.50. It was financed with a $10,000 state grant and federal revenue sharing funds. Lamberson said the new piece of equipment will free the present ambulance for back-up duty and for transfer- ring patients. Plans are already in process to place equipment on the new unit to furnish field monitor- ing of heart, vascular or respiratory patients. Gulf County's new ambulance is shown in Tuesday afternoon from Orlando. The new vehicle willgo into the picture above. The vehicle was delivered -Star photo service immediately.

The arraignment and charges stem from an incident which happened nearly two years ago at the Gulf County Courthouse. At the time, news media made much of the case which was later dropped by the Florida Fresh Water Fish and Game Commission. At the time Lawrence and several witnesses to the act, said the alligator had been snagged on a large hook in a drain ditch adjacent to the 'Courthouse and was injured and bleeding internally. Law- rence said he shot the gator to keep him from dying a slow death from the internal injur- ies. He then reported the incident to the Game Commis- sion chairman in Tallahassee and no charges were filed. Lawrence said, "I thought I did the right thing for the gator at the time and I still think so." The gator was hooked by a trustee who had large hooks in the drain canal fishing for turtles. Revival Services Set The Highland View Church of God will conduct revival services beginning Wednes- day night, March 31, and con- tinuing through Sunday, April 4. Services begin nightly at 7:00 p.m., except Sunday ser- vices, which begin at 6:00. Rev. Earl Daniels of Fort Myers will be the evangelist. Pastor G. H. Goins extends a cordial welcome to everyone to attend. A children's church will also be conducted Wed- nesday through Saturday nights. round of words, including words like "filibuster", "en- vironment", "innovate" and "ulterior", only six seventh graders and two eighth grad- ers were left in contention. Last year's champion, and the student termed the best speller in Port St. Joe High School, Sherri Raffield, slipp- ed up on her first word and missed the word "abhor" by putting an "e" on the end. This was the second year of spelling competition for the local students, who are parti- cipating in a state-wide con- test sponsored by the Florida Times-Union of Jacksonville. Students participating in the spell-off were: Eighth Graders-Harold Caphart, Debbie Kelly, Sharie Mims, Laura King, Gay Ford, Charles Butler, Timothy Beard, Carl Fox, Sherri Raf- field, Kenneth Mason, Lisa Fadio, Parion Mims, Marvin Sewell, Kathy Yates, Mark Watts, Ronald Miller, Steve Sullivan, Gregg Jones, Ray Pence, Lavon Pace and Franklin Hodges.

Vicki Sapp, Linda Jack- son, Michele Russ and Otis Stallworth. All did not participate in the finals Friday. Paper Mill to Start Monday St. Joe Paper Company will resume operation of its paper mill here Monday, April 5, according to information re- leased from the office of Tom S. Coldewey, Vice-President in charge of operations. The mill has been down for the past 17 days due to lack of orders. Operations will re- sume with the 7:00 A.M. shift. 15 Cents Per Copy Plans Hearing On Legislation William J. Rish, a member of the Florida Legislature from this district, will conduct a public hearing Friday afternoon at 6:30 P.M., in the Commission meeting room in the Gulf County Courthouse. Rish said the hearing will be held to receive input from local and area citizens concerning proposed Legislation which will be introduced in the session beginning this month. "I want to know what our people think and wish done by their Legislature", Rish said. The popular law maker holds such public hearings before each session in Tallahassee to keep in touch with the people. Everyone is invited to attend the hearing and express themselves. _______~ PAGE TWO THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla.

S' *****S*3#M Biology Students Study Twenty-three high school students from Norcross, Geor- gia are shown in this picture, as they gathered here in the Port St. Joe area last week end to study marine life as part of their high school biology curriculum. The class is taught by Henry Janowski, son of Mr. and Mrs. B. M. Janowski of Indian Pass. The class stayed at the Janowski's beach camp grounds during the week end. During their stay here, they were honored with a fish fry Friday night and spent the day Saturday combing the beach and studying the various ma- rine life which abounds in the Indian Pass area. EDITORIALS: What this country needs - --most emphatically is exactly :what Secretary of State Kissinger -,says we shouldn't have: an election year debate on U.S. foreign and defense policy. Recently, in a speech in Boston, -Kissinger complained about U.S. -domestic divisions which, he says, -are frustrating his carrot and stick approach to the Soviet Union. His : approach has reminded us more of feeding a vicious dog a piece of hamburger meat with one's bare -:.hand. To us, this seems yet another - manifestation of Dr. Kissinger's :oft-repeated private fear that the *U.S. is in fact a declining world -power, but one must never admit it in public because to do so will only make matters worse. The recent Congressional re- fusal to support Kissinger and Ford in their requests for aid to the anti-Soviet factions in Angola may seem to be proof of a lack of U.S. will. However, we would point out that many negative votes were cast as protests against the other side of Kissinger's diplomacy his refusal to let Soviet adventurism in Angola interfere with the pursuit of detente. It is, in short, the whole philoso- America's famous Liberty Bell now has a new home. For many years it has been on display in Independence Hall, in Philadel- phia. But the space it was in was so limited that Congress appropriated a million dollars to erect a special building for it, so that the thousands of Bicentennial visitors who hope to see it not only can see it but even touch it-and have their pictures taken beside it. Most of the visitors who visit the bell will associate it with the American Revolution. But the truth is, is had nothing at all to do ;with our war for Independence. It had been ringing for twenty years -before anybody ever dreamed of such a war! In 1751, the Province of Penn- .sylvania decided to build a State --House that would add dignity to the -:Provincial Assembly, whose memb- .bers had heretofore been meeting - casually in the homes of private --citizens. They wanted to have a There are some white peo- ple who say that black people don't participate in the Dixie League, so why let little black -children play in the Dixie -League. I was the first black man to be an assistant coach, or I thought that I was an as- sistant coach, and I believe that the parents of the Vitro Team believed that I was an assistant coach, because I was treated like an assistant coach. I joined the League to be- phy of U.S. foreign policy which must be debated and closely ex- amined. Whatever the administration claims, the U.S.,is falling behind in relation to the Soviet Union both militarily and politically. It is ironic that this can be perfectly obvious to any school boy but can still escape a few supposedly "sophisticated" academicians. If there is any pre- tending going on, it is on the part of those who insist that all is well. Dr. Kissinger maintains that there is "no alternative" to his policies. He can hold out no alterna- tive to endless competition and irreconcilable ideological differ- ences between the U.S. and USSR. Dr. Kissinger labels himself as a fatalist by his maneuverings. The Secretary repeats his warn- ings to the Soviets and Cubans against further adventurism. Sup- posing that, next time around, he can get congressional support for U.S. counteraction, let him tell us how, if present military trends continue, the U.S. will still possess the necessary power to act. These are the kinds of funda- mental questions which must be faced and answered in this Bicen- tennial year. suitable bell to put in the new structure. accordingly, they in- structed their representative in London to have a bell, which would be about three feet high and weigh about 2,000 pounds, made for them. The Whitechapel Bell Foundry, which had been making bells in England for two centuries, was given the order. In 1752 the bell was finished and shipped to Philadel- phia. It had a very stormy voyage and, perhaps because of this, the first time it was tested it developed a crack which spoiled its tone. Two local workmen were hired to recast it but even though they recast it twice it never sounded right. Al- though the bell had no part in our struggle for Independence it has become for us a precious symbol of the liberty for which our forefathers fought-and an insistent reminder of our obligation to protect and pre- serve that liberty. -Copied come a head coach someday in the future, and to show white people that black people would participate if you give them a chance. I was not asked back as an assistant coach. In my opinion, it was because the head coach of the Vitro Team -would not be a minor league coach after this year (1976), and that would have made me head coach automatically in 1977. I was willing to contribute what was necessary to be a part of the league. Are the standards of the men who organize the Dixie League too low to try to help a fellow man who was willing to participate as a man on equal basis? There are blacks who are willing to participate only if they can feel like they are wanted. We must work to- gether. Nathan Peters, Jr. P. 0. Box 901 Port St. Joe, Fla. By CHARLIE WEBB The odors from air pollution in our river town during pio- neer times were refreshing. The height of air pollution was along about supper time and was caused by wood-burning stoves. During some atmospheric conditions there was also much beauty in the smoke slowly drifting up from the different stove chimneys and joining together to form a round canopy of smoke on top of the high swamp trees en- circling the town. The canopy seemed to form a white pro- tective covering from the dark evils that could attack the river people at the close of another day of work and love. Pioneers had deep-set con- victions about the kind of wood to be used for cooking. The wood used 'had something to do with the way the wood would smell. and within the odor was much of the delicious taste of the food. Some pioneers desired green oak, while others want- ed dead oak wood and would See Film Joe Garigiola and his "World of Baseball", was shown to the Rotary Club last Thursday, to mark the begin- ning of the baseball season. The film, narrated by Gari- giola, was a collection of some of the great plays of the national pastime, plus some of the top boner plays as well as a study in the art of bubble gum chewing and bubble blowing, as presented by pitcher Andy Messersmith. There's more to blowing a bubble than getting a sticky face. Continued from Earlier Issue Most of the tales tell of confrontation with a big rat- tler. One version is that the snake bit Tate and after four days of sickness and agonizing pain he stumbled out of Tate's Hell on the road to Carrabelle. Another is that the snake bit the dog and Tate sucked out the venom and saved his hound at the cost of getting sick and weak with hunger and that the dog howled so long and loud a turpentine Negro came in and rescued them both. Well, so much for conjec- ture. We entered in to the dark swamp in single file, Gib in the lead, then Mr. Rube and yours truly brought up the rear. I had old Sport on a leash. That's Mr. Rube's hound dog -a cold-nosed slow trailing black and tan male who wanted to be released and start smelling something up. After a 30-minute walk we were about a mile and a half from where we started. "You.take this stand and you may get a shot. Mr. Swan- son says if he comes this way, Air Pollution? Well, Not Really use no other kind for cooking. One man said that he loved to cook with a mixture of fat lightered wood because the smell of a hot pan of butter- -milk biscuits cooked with lightered wood made the taste of the biscuits come alive with any kind of old black strap molasses. he'll jump over that log over there," said Mr. Rube. "We'll go on up ahead a piece and turn the dog loosee" I gave him the leash and settled down to wait. There was not a breath of air stirring on the cold Novem- ber morning. All was so peace- ful and quiet, and I stretched out on my back and was soon asleep. I dreamed I was look- ing down the barrel of my 12-gauge automatic at a big 10-point buck and all of a sudden, all hell broke loose. , I heard a shot and moments later old Sport opened up coming toward me and I heard the deer break through a cab- bage palm. Reaching around wildly for my gun, I kept my eyes on where he should ap- pear. Just as I got my hands on it, the buck crashed into the open heading for the big log. Just as he went over the top I took a snap at him holding the gun with one hand, as his white flag disappeared. "Dad burn it," I said to my- self, "Mr. Rube and Gib will give me heck." Then I heard the cabbage palm again and I was ready for him. I put three buck shot in the top of his head and he fell in front of the log. Well to wind things up, my companions soon appeared. Gib had a buck slung from his shoulders and Mr. Rube had Sport on a leash. "How did you come out?" asked Mr. Rube. "Got one and missed one." We walked over to my deer and Gib unloosed and skinned the legs to make a sling. Sport sniffed around and opened up with his front feet on the log, and Mr. Rube looked over and said, "You didn't miss him, boy-here he is." We -all packed a buck apiece back to the truck. Tate's Hell was a vast al- most impenetrable swamp be- tween Carrabelle and Suma- tra. Mr. Rube (my father-in- law) was a peace officer for iqany years. Gib Swanson was a hardy pioneer who everybody liked. I was 18, just out of high school, and as Mr. Rube said, I was much of a man. All this happened in 1924. KILLER K. To walk down a street under a canopy of oak and fat pine wood smoke from the cook stoves was a journey of beauty and refreshing odors. To pass by a kitchen and get a whiff of black pepper from a pot of steaming fish chowder made from blue channel catfish, just out of the river, added light- ness to the journey. The aroma of rich black pepper with a fish chowder back- ground could. have always been the great liberator of a pent-up appetite. Perhaps in the visible physi-" cal beauty beheld by the eyes, I often miss and ignore the delicate beauty within the in- visible attribute of pleasant odors that if breathed deep enough would free a beautiful memory never before libe- rated within the heart. ETAOIN SHRDLU By WESLEY R. RAMSEY Education Commissioner Ralph Turlington must still think he's in the Legislature on the one hand and an education commissioner on the other hand. For the past month or so, Turlington has been filling his news releases with a need for more money for education. This makes him sound like the Commissioner of Education. The Commissioner is asking for a $1.64 billion education budget for the coming year, which will require about $150 million in additional state funds. Governor Reubin Askew is proposing a $1.5 billion education budget, calling for an addition- al $60 million in state funds. It isn't hard to see .the Governor's budget would call on the individual counties for more participation, than would Mr. Turlington's model. Commissioner Turlington is acting like he was still in the Legislature in that he has already stipulated where the additional tax money he wants would come from. He favors hiking the cigarette tax by three cents a pack and increasing liquor taxes by 22 cents a fifth. Turlington is meeting resistance from sources other than the Governor's office. Several members of the Legislature are chopping at the administration level of the education system saying the needed money can be realized by reducing the administration bodies. I don't buy or use either cigarettes or liquor, but it seems unfair to me to pick on these favorite whipping boys in the taxation circles when the same goal may be realized by reducing expenditures elsewhere. When we look at the private schools, we see them operating on tuition from each student of around $600 per student. The state operated schools, meanwhile can do nothing but cry for more money while expending close to $1,000 per student. I know there are arguments, good and justifiable for the need for more education money. The schools exist for educating children and the private schools seem to be doing a good job of it at less expenditure per student. On the other hand, we hear and read nothing but criticism on whether or not "Johnnie" is learning to read and write in the public schools. If Turlington succeeds in getting his money, I hope he also succeeds in putting it to good use for education and not more administration. Social Security and the Post Office are catching their lumps in the news and editorials these days. Social Security is going broke and the Post Office is having its problems delivering the mail and trying to make ends meet. Columnist John Chamberlain said last week that Ronald Reagan had raised a valid point concerning Social Security in his campaign in suggesting that Social Security funds be invested in bonds as a source of interest revenue rather than government manipulation of the funds which has placed it far into the red. Chamberlain also approves Reagan's sug- gestion that a worker be allowed to keep his retirement funds with a firm which invests in productive investments rather than the Social Security funds. He suggests the worker be required to invest in one plan or another, but that he be given a choice. This corner thinks a person who pays in his Social Security credits should be able to get them back in payments upon retirement age, regard- less of whether or not he retires completely. The money belongs to the depositor or so they tell us at Social Security. The Post Office is another matter. I see where there is now a proposal being aired to abolish the public corporation now operating the service and revert back to the old method of operation. Which ever method of administration is used, the service is still going to be faced with the cost spiral which is knocking every other company and corporation for a loop these days. The other method of administration did seem to offer better service. Secretary of State Kissinger has issued "ultimatums" to Russia and Cuba about their military interventions in Africa. The United Nations has been predictably quiet in this area. As James Reston of the New York Times Service puts it, "It would be helpful if he would tell the country how he proposes to carry his threats out." Since Vietnam and our refusal to become involved in the Angolan caper, the threats from the United States no doubt have about as much "scare" as a graveyard in the daylight. On the question of legalized gambling for Florida, Heywood Broun, he of the many-colored coats says, "The urge to gamble is so universal and its practice so pleasurable that I assume it must be evil." I "assume" right along with Heywood. Country Needs Debate On World Position Bell Has New Home Killer "K".

Most of them have to be fought again and again. We shape our lives by making choices and deci- sions. We become crea- tures of habit, and join the throng that moves along in a rut. Or we choose to be creative and launch out into new experiences and feelings of accomplish- ments. The kind of person we happen to be was largely determined by the way we have fought the battles of life, either through habit- or the adventures of crea- tivity. This is certain, too! Each of us is deciding today just the kind of per- son we "'ill be tomorrow. No person rises above his ambitions and neither does he sink below his darkest defeats.

He suggested that the adjoining land is suit- able if it is available. Comm. Owens informed the Board that the contractor now re-surfacing some streets in Port St. Joe is leaving piles of dirt and grass all along the streets, which is an ugly sight and also prevents some home owners from entering their drive-ways and parking on the edge of the right of way.
