R. E. Downs Dies


From Attack


At approximately 12:15 a.m.
Saturday morning, a 1974
Chevrolet pick-up was dis-
covered three miles west of
Port St. Joe, on U. S. 98, off the
north side of the highway in
the woods, by passing motor-
ists. The vehicle lights were
on, and the motor was run-
ning. The vehicle had stalled
in the sand, against a small
pine tree. Upon investigation,
the passing motorists discov-
ered Itobert E. Downs slump-
ed over in the front seat.
Downs was driven to St. Joe
Municipal Hospital and was
pronounced dead on arrival.

Smith Honored

by Kiwanians
Long-time Kiwanian John
Robert Smith was honored by
his fellow club members
Tuesday at their regular noon
meeting.
Smith was given a hand-
some scroll in a gold frame
extolling his many years of
service to the club and com-
munity. Smith's continuing
efforts to encourage the beau-
tification of the entrances to
the city were especially noted
on the document. He has been
especially active over the past
years in trying to get the Fifth
Street median beautified and
equipped to make mainten-
ance a permanent fixture.


Due to the small amount of
damage to the.vehicle, Troop-
er K. E. Murphy, homicide
investigator for the Florida
Highway Patrol, asked for as-
sistance from the County Med-
ical Examiner to determine
the cause of death. The pre-
liminary report from the
Medical Examiner indicates
Downs' death was attributed
to a heart attack.
Murphy was assisted at the
scene by Deputy Sheriff Ray-
mond Watson of the Gulf
County Sheriff's Department.
Robert E. Downs, age 60,
was a resident of St. Joe
Beach. He was a native of
Sylacauga, Ala., and had lived
in the Port St. Joe area since
1955. He was an employee of
St. Joe Paper Company.
He is survived by his wife,
Mrs. Katie M. Downs of St.
Jeo Beach; two sons, Robert
E. Downs, Jr. and Clark
Downs, both of St. Joe Beach;
one granddaughter, Kimberly
Downs of St. Joe Beach; a
brother, J. T. Downs of Pen-
sacola and a sister, Catherine
Downs of Sylacauga, Ala.
Funeral services were held
at 3:00 p.m. Monday at the
Church of Christ, Port St. Joe,
with the Rev. James Cullins
officiating. Interment follow-
ed in the family plot of Holly
Hill Cemetery.
All services were under the
direction of Comforter Fun-
eral Home of Port St. Joe.

Memorial Week


End Is Safe


Memorial Day with its rec-
ord number of traffic deaths
each year, proved once again
this year, that Gulf County is
one of the safest places in the
world to be during a holiday.
Gulf, which normally girds
with the rest of the nation, to
be extra careful of accidents
during a holiday week end,
came through without a
scratch-as usual. Local po-
lice and Highway Patrol re-
ports there wasn't even a
'"fender bending" reported
over the three-day holiday.
Highway Patrol Trooper
Ken Murphy had to report the
accident and death of R. E.
Downs, of St. Joe Beach, since
his pick-up truck hit a pine
tree and dented the front as he
was evidently trying to get to
the. hospital early Saturday
morning. Trdoper Murphy


said Downs evidently felt an
attack coming on and pulled
off the road, striking the pine
tree.
Most holidays which are a
safety threat due to many
people being on the roads,
pass just that way in Gulf
County:. plenty of enjoyment
of the days off with no tragic
accidents.

Measuring for

ROTC Uniforms
Port St. Joe High School
Principal Ken' Herring said
this week that Commander
David Humphreys will be at
the High School at 11:00 Mon-
day and Tuesday of next week
to measure candidates of the
NJROTC course next year for
their uniforms.

View; a son, Lee Ralph Watts,
Jr. of Jacksonville; a daugh-
ter, Mrs. Melba Jean Barbee
of Port St. Joe; five grand-

Watts of Chattanooga, Tenn.
and Johnnie Watts of Pontiac,
Mich.; and two sisters, Mrs.

when a woods fire broke out in
the vicinity of the county

EDITORIALS:



OUR BEST


It's almost without fail that
graduating seniors, speaking before
-their matriculating classes, will get
ujp,.and spell out 'what a--mess--the.
world is in and proclaim that they
will add their voices and energy to
the society of adults and get about
the business of straightening things
out as they should be.
When.these words are uttered,
we adults tend to secretly smile to
ourselves and think, "You'll find
out, my son, that the world is not so
dreary and troublesome a place in
which to live once you understand
things a little more". We feel that a
living experience will change the
minds of these bright-eyed young-
sters after a few years and they will
come to realize the world is a pretty
good place in which to live. It's the


people who mess it up, with their
crazy ideas and-actions.
Now we, like those annual
graduation, speakers, are fearful of
the state of the world. If this
graduating crop of seniors can,
truly, change things for the better by
being better people, we will be glad
to see them 'get to work.
You live in 'the United States of
America and that alone puts you
leaps and bounds ahead of young
men and women in other parts of the
world toward realizing a good life.
There is plenty left for you.
As for us adults, we hope the
season of the young adult who goes
into seclusion "to find himself" is
over and done- with. We cannot
.afford to have a sizeable portion of
our energetic young adults putting
their heads in the sand. We desper-
ately need those who will put their
backs to the wheel and push.
As we look at the graduating
seniors of Port St. Joe High School,
we see what seems to be the largest
percentage of good solid, Christian
young people going out into the
World than we have seen in some
time. And, that's what it takes-
young people who can be honest,
work hard and try to. accomplish
things. We still have our drop-outs,
but their number seems to be
diminishing. For this we can be
thankful.


ReliefNeeded


As the week ended last week, it
appeared as if the Florida Legisla-
ture was going to agree on a medical
malpractice bill which would give
some relief to the sky-rocketing
'insurance rates for that coverage.
While the House and Senate were at
odds about some of the contents of
the bill, they seemed to agree on
certain portions which would drasti-
cally reduce the ridiculous rates now
being charged.
Some of these agreements were
that any insurance carried by the
patient would be reduced from any
malpractice award; court costs and
attorney fees would be assessed to a
-patient if he lost his suit; to define
malpractice and require hospitals to
do some of the policing of practices
where malpractice suits might ini-
tiate.
It .would seem to us that some of
these items should be considered in
the auto insurance bill also. While
the malpractice rate is high, and is
passed on to the patient in charges,
it isn't felt by the man in the street,
individually, as much as the auto
insurance rate is. The auto owner
must have the insurance to operate
his car and he is catching it in the
neck with rates which are jumping


by as much as 100 percent a year.
It would seem to us, that if
medical insurance could be reduced
from suit awards on the part of the
injured and if the person filing suits
would be responsible for court costs
if he loses his suit, these items would
also serve to reduce auto insurance
premiums. It would also reduce the
number of suits being filed by those
who are trying to take advantage
and really deserve no compensation
based on the merits of the case.
There are many who would and do
try to line their own pockets when it
isn't really deserved and it costs the
rest of us.
We feel that the suits filed which
are not deserved have as much to do
with our increases in automobile
-insurance rates as any other one
item.
The operator of an automobile
should have the opportunity of
purchasing protection for accidents
he cannot avoid at a reasonable rate.
If the law were written to protect the
insurance company from undeserv-
ed suits and assessed damages, we
feel we would once again see an
insurance rate which would protect
from damages and from bankruptcy
from paying the premium.

ETAOIN SHRDLU

By WESLEY R. RAMSEY


Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Hildbold, operators of
the local Piggly Wiggly took a week-long trip to
London a couple of weeks ago on a tour arranged
and subsidized by the Piggly Wiggly organiza-
tion. In talking with Maurice and Mai, they say
they have fewer gripes about high prices in
America after their trip, which was the first one
abroad for either of them.
Maurice was telling me that a gallon of
gasoline in England costs $1.75 a gallon.
Consequently, there were less than few 15-miles-
per-gallon gas guzzlers zipping up and down the
roads. As a matter of fact he said there was no
zipping up and down the road. "It's too crowded
for that", he said. rPeople were everywhere. A
pair'of just plain rubberibttom shboescosAt$8.00
a pair and Mai said an ordinary ladies blouse
also costs bout $80.00. To top it all off, the
average Englishman makes about half what the
average American makes in salary. Their taxes
are als6 higher.
They exchanged their American dollars for
pounds at the rate of $1.80 per pound. A week
later, when they left, they changed their money
back and the pound had dropped during the
week, giving them only $1.77 back per pound.
That's what Socialism will do for you. Here
in America, despite our high prices and high
taxes, the American workman has more of his
dollars left after taxes and purchasing the
necessities than anywhere else in the world.
One thing the Hildbolds said which would
sour me on England in just a little while was that
there was little to no beef to eat. The English,

and their visitors, are fed on lamb and mutton.
"It tastes all right," Mai said, "after you get
used to the smell if you ever do".
They don't serve you with a glass of ice
water at the restaurants in England. The
Hildbolds and their party took a one-day trip to
Paris while on their tour and the same thing
prevailed there, also. Mai said if you wanted
water at a restaurant, you had to-ask for it.
"Then they would bring you a bottle of distilled
water, take the cap off it and you had to drink it
warm or not at all". Even the smallest of
restaurants here in the United States has the
waitress greet you with a glass of ice water when
you .are waited on ..
These little things mnke the difference abd
we're all for the'difference.

I see where Southern Bell Telephone
Company has installed a telephone in an
outhouse in Havana. For those of you who have
never seen an outhouse, that's a little house
behind the big house where one performs his
daily ablutions at the mercies of nature, perfume
and chickens.
Southern Bell made much of their installa-
tion, claiming a first in such services. I can't
see anyone wishing to remain esconched in an
outhouse (from my memory of those happily
passed days) to make or receive a telephone call.
Certainly this would not be the case when the
frost was on the pumpkin and the tail was cold.

I told you last week we were up to our
eyeballs in alligators since the federal govern-
ment and state has designated the 'gator as an
endangered species, but I never expected
something to happen such as happened last
week. A lady entered the powder room of a
restaurant down in Englewood the other day and
was met by a four foot 'gator, also endulging in
the comforts of that comfort station.
The lady, naturally, was not at all pleased
with her companion in the powder room and took
a powder herself. Game officials took the 'gator
to a nearby lake and released it. The lady? I
don't know what happened to her, but I suspect
she forgot just what it was she went into the
powder room for, or else she had no further need
for its services after finding the 'gator staring
her in the face.

Congressman Wayne Hays must be a jewel
of a fellow.
After the scandal which broke last week
concerning him and a woman formerly on his
staff, there have been all kind of news articles in
the papers about his escapades. One Friday of
last week said Congressmen call him the "Marco
Polo of the House" because of his numerous
junkets taken all over the world also at the
expense of the taxpayer.
There have been suggestions made that
Hays should resign his positions on several
House committees, due to the scandal.
The scandal of Hays has raised some
eyebrows and made people even more leery of
the moral character of their law-makers, but
even so, the furor hasn't been near what the
rumble was over England's Lord Porfumo and
his Christine Keeler affair several years ago.
Have we become more tolerant or more
jaded?
I don't know about Congressman Hays, but a
scandal like that would shame me beyond words.
I wouldn't have the brass to even appear in
public, much less make a public denial of the
entire affair then have to eat those words later.

missioners of Gulf County,

proved and adopted.
John Dill informed the
Board that Paris Carter has
dug three ditches across the

vised by the Attorney, the
Chairman directed the Clerk
to write a letter to Mr. Carter,

this road is next on the county
paving list and that the paving
should commence soon after
the Roberts Cemetery Road is
completed.
The Tax Assessor presented
three certificates of correc-
tions on the 1975 tax roll. The

missioners to pay the-Florida

THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. THURSDAY, JUNE 3, 1976


Port St. Joe Lodge 111; Free
and Accepted Masons made
presentation of an American
flag which had been flown
over the national capital, a
Florida state flag which had
been flown over the state cap-
ital, along with a framed copy
of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence to each of the local
schools, during ceremonies
held recently.
The American flags were 5'
x 8' nylon, and were accom-
panied by a letter of certifica-
tion stating that they were


flown over the national capital
in Washington, D. C. on May
12 of this year. The Florida
state flags were accompanied
by a certificate of the same
nature.
The master of the local
lodge gave credit to Billy Joe
Rish for his kind assistance
and guidance in obtaining the
flags for this ceremony.
The flags are of a size suit-
able for use either indoors or
outdoors and are to be used as
the schools see fit. The framed

A letter from Sen. Bob Saun-
ders advised the Board that if
SB 22 passes the Legislature,
ti would have a devastating
effect on Gulf County as it
would return 41.675 miles of
roads to the county for main-
tenance, which would cost the.
county $108,505.47. The Board
went on record opposing this
bill.
The Board entered into a
discussion with reference to
securing a supervisor to re-
place C. E. Daniell, upon his
retirement as Mosquito -Con-
trol Supervisor. Comm. Whit-
field told the Board that it
must select a person that can
continue to qualify the county
for state-matching funds.
Comm. Player told the Board
that Mr. Daniell would con-
tinue his employment until
May 21. He then made a
motion that if a new super-
visor has not been selected by
May 31, that a member of this
Board take over active,super-
vision of the department for
the month of June, that if a
superintendent has not been
selected by July 1, that C. E.
Daniell will resume full super-
vision of the department for a
reasonable length of time to
allow time for the selection of
a new supervisor and also to
allow a breaking-in time; that

applications for this position

Rev. Gosnell Resigns Pastorate


THE GOSNELL FAMILY-Left to Gosnell and Timothy Scott. They are leaving
right: Karen Michelle, Mrs. Gosnell, Rev. Port St. Joe for Tallahassee.


Reverend James Gosnell
has resigned as pastor of the
Pentecostal Holiness Church,
Garrison Avenue. Effective
June 1, he assumed pastorate
of the Copeland Street Pente-
costal Holiness Church in Tal-
lahassee.
Rev. Gosnell has served as
pastor of the local church for
the past 11 years. During this
time the church has grown
considerably. Among the out-
standing things accomplished
are: final payment of church
bond program, erection and
payment of a new fellowship
annex, and instigation of a bus
ministry during Gosnell's
leadership. The church was in
its early years when Gosnell
assumed duties as pastor, but
during this time it has become
fully self-supporting and in
June, 1975, Gosnell became
full time pastor of the church.
The Gosnells have lived in
Port St. Joe for 16'2 years.
During this time, Rev. Gosnell
accepted his call into the
ministry and attended Holmes
Theological Seminary and
University of West Florida for


'Best Lawns Mowed Often


An attractive lawn is largely
the result of regular cutting at
the proper mowing height. A
properly mowed lawn is more
vigorous and will have fewer
disease problems.
It is natural for the home-
owner to want to cut the grass
as'short as possible in order to
lengthen the time between
cuttings. However, "scalp-
ing" the lawn can seriously
injure the grass. Removal of
large portions of the leaf re-
sults in reduced carbohydrate
production, because, the leaves
are largely responsible for


photosynthesis. Reduced car-
bohydrates will weaken the
turf and allow it to be invaded
by weeds and injured by
disease and insects. Loss of
large portions of the leaf will
also cause severe reduction in
root, rhizone and stolon
growth.
Starting with a sharp mow-
er, the homeowner should
avoid removing more than
one-third of the leaf surface of
his grass at a cutting.
Mowing height is fairly well
established for Florida lawn-
grasses. Bermudagrasses and

zoysiagrasses can be mowed
at 1/2 to one inch; centipede-
grass and carpetgrass at one
to two inches, and St. Augus-
tine grasses and bahiagrasses
at two to four inches. There
are however, exceptions to
these guidelines. 'Argentine'
bahia is quite attractive when
maintained at two inches, and
'Floratine' St. Augustine grass
has been maintained satisfac-
torily at one inch.
A high mowing height is
suggested for grass in shaded
areas. This increases the leaf
area for capture of the limited
light energy. Higher mowing
height will also benefit a lawn-
grass when weakened by pest
injury, traffic or environmen-
tal stress.
Mowing frequency is deter-
mined by the growth rate of
the grass. The rate of growth
will depend on temperature,
light-and moisture conditions,
and nitrogen levels. Since the
Seamount of moisture and ferti-
lizer 'applied differs .greatly
from one lawn to the next, it is
not correct to say that all
bahiagrass lawns must be
mowed every seven to 10 days.
Frequency depends on how
rapidly the lawn is growing.

The "rule of thumb" is to
mow often enough so that not
more than one-third of the
total leaf surface is removed
at any one mowing. If it is
desirable to maintain St.
Augustine at two inches, mow
when the grass is 2V2 to three
inches tall. If you return from
vacation and the lawn is six
inches high, reduce the height
gradually through several
mowings a few days apart.
Another factor which is not
as critical as cutting height
and frequency is mowing pat-
tern. In successive mowings,
try varying the pattern in two
or three directions. This will
distribute the mower wear
more uniformly over the lawn
and improve the quality of the
cut. Also, to minimize wear on
the turf, try making your
turns on the sidewalk or
driveway. When turning on


the grass, make a wide,
sweeping arc rather than a
sharp, rapid 360 degrees turn.
Rapid, spinning turns can
bruise and tear the turf.
Avoid mowing wet grass.
Dry grass cuts easily, does not
clog the mower, reduces the
chance of spreading disease-
causing organisms and gives a
more pleasing, finished ap-
pearance.


his formal training. Mrs. Gos-
nell remained in Port St. Joe
during this time and was em-
ployed at St. Joe Paper Co.
Container Division for 10
years.
Gosnell taught at Port St.
Joe High School as building
trades instructor become be-
coming a full-time pastor. He
serves his state denomination
as Christian Education Direc-
tor. Mrs. Gosnell also serves
on a state level as Girl's
Auxiliary Director.
They have two children,
Karen Michelle, who will be a
high school senior next school
term, and Timothy Scott, who
will begin the first grade.
The local church gave a
farewell supper this past Fri-
day evening for the Gosnells.
Church members and friends
gave them a love offering in
appreciation. The Woman's
Auxiliary presented Mrs. Gos-
nell with a crystal cake saver.
The Gosnells will not be
leaving Port St. Joe complete-
ly until the school term is over
next week. Both Rev. and Mrs.
Gosnell wish to express their
love and appreciation for their
many friends in Gulf County
and extend an invitation to all
to visit them at 2608 Nez Perce
Trail, Tallahassee.


Removal of clippings is
another factor that merits
consideration. If the lawn is
mowed frequently, the small
amount of clippings may not
be detrimental.
Short clippings decay rapid-
ly and usually do not contri-
bute to thatch formation. How-
ever, accumulation of exces-
sive amounts of clippings may
smother the lawn.

Shields said pleasure boat
owners should register their
boats at their local tax col-
lector's office, bringing their
prior registration certificate
and evidence that a title has
been issued for the boat.
Most of the larger counties
' in the state send out renewal
forms for boat owners. The
boat owner can save time and
effort by simply renewing
registration by mail.
Commerical boat owners
should re-register their boats
with the Department of Nat-

be receiving their renewal
applications by mail.
Any new commercial boat
owner may obtain applica-
tions from any of the District
offices of the Florida Marine

Working?


Get Card

Students and other people
planning to get summer jobs
should apply without delay for
a social security number if
they don't already have one,
according to David Robinson,
Social Security Field Repre-
sentative for Gulf County.
"Some employers won't hire
yop unless you have a social
security number," Robinson
said. "Delaying your applica-
tion might prevent you from
being hired or cause you to
lose time and money."
People can get information
about applying for a social
security number by calling or
writing any social security
office.
"You should apply for your
social security number at
least several weeks before you
need it for, a job," Robinson
said. "When you don't recall
having had a social security
number before, your applica-
tion is screened against cen-
tral files in-Baltimore-to make,
sure a second number isn't
issued to you. And screening
takes time."
A worker builds disability,
survivors, retirement and
'Medicare protection by work
and earnings credited to his
social security number. He
gets credit if he's paid $50 or
:more in a three-month calen-
*dar quarter in work covered
-'by social security.
More than nine out of 10 jobs
are covered by social security.
"Your social security num-
::ber is yours alone and remains
the same for life," Robinson
, noted. "When you get a job
Covered by social security, be
,:sure your employer copies
:your name and number cor-
rectly from your social secur-
ity card to his records."
The Panama City social
.!security office is located at

Phone number is 769-4871.

Interest in the recently pub-
lished efficiency rating of Gulf
County schools has produced
many questions and a search
for adequate answers. The
answers are complex and
branch into many contributing
factors.

In 1975 the Florida Legisla-
ture placed into law (Section
237.35 (3), Florida Statutes) a
requirement for the Commis-
sioner of Education to develop
and implement an integrated
information system for public
school management. This sys-
tem is to include a provision
which produces information
concerning the relationship
between costs and effective-
ness.
Section 236.081 (1) (c), Flor-
ida Statutes, establishes 26
educational programs for
funding and accounting pur-
poses. Each subject or grade
level is included in the list of 26
programs. Each program is
given a category number and
a numerical weight. Each
"full time equivalent" student
times the numerical weight
produces the funds generated
by the categorical program.

Each school district must
maintain school-by-school re-
ports of all expenditures by
categorical programs. The
Department of Education has
available in its central cost
reporting data base, informa-
tion concerning the cost of
'each of the approximately
2,000 public schools in the
state.
The above information
briefly outlines the cost ac-
counting and reporting sys-
tem. However, this only helps
in explaining the efficiency
rating.

The Educational Accounta-
bility Act passed by the Flor-
ida Legislature in 1971 esta-
blished a state-wide program
of assessment of student per-
formance. This program is re-
quired to include annual test-
ing in reading, writing and
mathematics.

Within this assessment pro-
gram is the capability of deve-
loping a predicted score for

Retires At '39'

George McLawhon, one of the few
'remaining original employees of St. Joe Paper
Company, retired Friday, May 28, as a shift
foreman at St. Joe Paper Company. McLaw-
hon said he was taking "early retirement" so
he could enjoy life. He is the first employee to
retire from St. Joe Paper at the tender age of
39(his figures). George, or "Lead Dog" as he
was known by his shift personnel, was given a
retirement dinner by his shift, which featured
the two cakes shown in the picture with the
grinning retiree. McLawhon was presented
with several gifts by his shift at the dinner.

John Leonard Yadon grad-

High School, Bloomington, Ill-

Mr. Yadon attended elemen-

Fort Lauderdale, Augusta

During the summer, he will

He is the son of Dr. and Mrs.

GCCC Board of Directors

Meeting Today In Courthouse


The regular June 3 meeting
of the Gulf Coast Community
College' District Board of
Trustees will be held in the
County Commission Meeting


Room in the Gulf County
Colirthouse today.
The Port St. Joe meeting is
scheduled to begin at 10:00
a.m.


more rapidly than either of the
parents, reaching a size of
eight pounds in three years.,
While not reaching as large a
site as the Stripped Bass, the
Sunshine Bass feeds on a
greater variety of foods,
thereby making them much
easier to catch.
Research on this particular
fish began about seven years
ago and had continued year
after year until the questions
posed of all new fish have been
answered.
Being a hybrid, reproduc-
tion is almost nonexistent
allowing for controlled num-
bers that do not exceedrtheir
food supply. Controlled num-
bers also eliminates serious
competition with the prized
Largemouth Bass.
Rish said that recent releas-
es of the hybrid by the Game
and Fresh Water Fish Com-
mission in other lakes and the
Apalachicola River prompted'
him to request the fish for the
Dead Lakes and the Chipola
River. Numbers of fish and
release dates will be announc-
ed in the near future.

Childers said.
In addition to the reports on
