Seven members from each group represented in the con- tract matters met in the Garden Center building on Eighth Street for their first session, which resulted in ian agreement to disagree on a system of procedures for the contract talks. Representing the school management for the contract talks will be: Harold Hollo- way, spokesman; Barbara Shirley, Harry Herrington, Howard Blick, Kenneth Her- o ring, Edwin Williams arind Temple Watson. Representing the GCCTA will be: Bill Barlow, spokes- mnan; Jerry Taunton, Peggy Cash, Jacque Price, Doug, Kent, Winston Wells and Faye Wood. The teachers have polled will try to get accepted by the management team in the ne- gotiations. The top three items on their agenda include: Some increase in salary (the tea- chers received no increase last year), improvement of guidelines to allow a teacher to maintain discipline in the classroom and a better pupil- teacher ratio in the classroom. The management team will be trying to maintain the contract as near to the one worked out last year as pos- sible. According to Barlow, the GCCTA represents 139 of the approximately 160 classroom teachers in the county. Monday's meeting broke off in a disagreement over proce- dures. The next session will be called by the management team. SCHOOL TEAM-Left to right: Ken Harrell Holloway, Herring, Howard Blick, Barbara Shirley, Edwin Williams.

The committee presented their recommendations to the regular meeting of the Board last Tuesday night and asked that curriculum requirements be enlarged to provide more language arts, mathematics and social, studies for gradua- tion. They recommended at least three years of language arts in grades 10-12. Require- ments are now two subjects in this field. New stipulations would have a student earn two credits in math rather than one.as is now the case. Gradu- ates would also be required to take at least two credits of social studies for graduation. Graduating seniors would still be required to earn 15 credits in grades 10 through 12 to graduate, but the number of required courses would be increased, he The recommended regula- tions would also require ninth graders to successfully pass five subjects before he could matriculate on to the 10th, grade.

They were presented with handsome plaques. OUTSTANDING JAYCEE The top award at the instal- lation banquet, the Outstan- ding Jaycee award went to retiring president Jim Cooley. The Outstanding Jaycee is selected by ballot by the members of the club. The members selected Cooley. The award was presented by ex- hausted rooster, Jim Beaman. Vice-President, Larry Mc- Ardle outlined the projects of the .club for the year past, '.which included: prayer break- fast for the senior class, Arrive Alive safety program, Christmas parade, Toys for Tots, Garden Club project, bicycle rodeo, fair sponsor- ship, Junior Miss pageant, circus sponsorship and pre- sentation of a $250.00 schol- arship to Junior Miss Cheryl Hatcher. The City Commission took an unusual step Tuesday night in their regular meeting, when an ordinance was introduced for a first reading, requiring all employees of the munici- pality to live within the city limits. The new ordinance, of course, applies to new hires. Any employees who may now live outside the city will not be affected by the new ordinance, but any new hires will be required to live within the city. The new ruling calls for new employees to be hired from within the city limits, except for specialists, who may not be available at the time they are needed. These specialists, when hired, will be expected JOEL GASTON ... State Secretary Representative William J. Rish, a Methodist lay leader will give the address, entitled, "American Heritage". Spe- cial music will be provided by the Praise Choir of the Long Avenue Baptist Church and Rev. and Mrs. David Fernan- dez. The Bicentennial worship service is being sponsored by the Port St. Joe Ministerial Association. Area ministers on the program will be Rev. Howard Goins, Highland View Church of God; Chaplain Lt. to move to Port St. Joe as soon as possible. The Commission felt that, if a person is to be paid a salary from city tax money, the community should receive the benefits of his residence. The new ordinance will be read again and adopted at the meeting of July 6. GRANT INCREASE After considering a change to an ordinance for the past month, the Commission al- lowed an alteration, Tuesday night, in an ordinance which would dictate changes in the ruling governing the Gulf Cable TV franchise within the City. The change allows the service to increase its service rates by $1.00 a month, and allows the firm to assess an installation fee of up to $25.00. The firm says it does not plan to make the $25.00 charge except in extreme cases. As a condition for granting the rate increase, the Com- mission wanted the service extended to North Port St. Joe. The owner, Robert New- man, said he was already making plans to do so when he can reach a pole agreement with Florida Power Corpora- tion for attaching his cables to their poles. HOUSING UNITS The City was advised by HUD, a government agency, this week, that as a condition of receiving any future Block -Grant money from their de- partment, the City would have to get into or authorize some- one else to furnish low rent housing, under the Housing Assistance Plan. Mike Wright, new City Clerk, said he had checked the edict out with the Northwest Florida Planning and Advi- sory Council and learned HUD expected the City to furnish 24 Col.

HUD has already approved approximately $90,000 for im- provements of recreational facilities in minority pand un- derprivileged areas, but that the funds would be held up until some positive action is taken on the housing matter. In December, the Commis- sion named its clerk, Charles Brock as Housing Director, when told by HUD such a director was needed, but the Board had no intentions their of getting into the housing business. Attorney William J. RisIk advised the Board not to gel into the program if they didn't want to.

In the first -place, he tried to secure the nomina- *tion, even though he was a south- "erner. This hadn't been done before; but Jimmy did it. Carter must be pretty sure of himself now that he has enough delegate votes and pledges under his arm to secure his nomination in the convention next month. With the winning vote in your pocket, we suppose a person can afford to be a little independent. With Hubert Humphrey and Teddy Kennedy in the wings, we think Carter should continue to 'deport hiniief just at if he were looking for that first vote., Evidently he thinks this, too. It appears to us to be the move of a politician to publicly make the statement he would consider a woman or a black as his running mate. When he mentions the name of a couple of black women, he has displayed a stroke of genius; to some people not to us. Mind you, we don't oppose a woman or a black being vice president. We just deplore the fact that a candidate may be chosen by the miracle of birth which decided his or her color or sex. We think Mr. Carter should look for the best possible man or woman for the position. We know it just isn't done in political circles to disgard all other criteria other than ability when choosing a candidate. The vote attraction is the magic ingredient which causes a running mate to be selected. We don't like that. The office of vice president is too important to our nation to be filled by a popularity poll. Carter's thoughts in selection of a running mate will no doubt draw approval from both the blacks and women. However, if we perpetuate this method of selecting a vice presidential candidate ye will take turns. Next term, it will be the Indian's time; next it will be the Mexican-American's time, and so on until all the minorities and ethnic groups have had their turn. This type of selection is akin to the method by which this part of Florida formerly selected its State Senator, with each county in the district having its turn in Tallahas- see. The Supreme Court ruled this was illegal.

We like to see our neighbor enjoy- a good life and achieve happiness and success. To this end, we all do what we can to help our neighbor and protect his rights. That is to say, most of us feel this way. We also have our element who aren't concerned with anything ex- cept destruction. The more they can tear down, the better. The more people who want what they decide to tear 'down, the greater the thrill. These people have been toller- ated too long around here. We have let it go, gritted our teeth and replaced what has been damaged or destroyed and uttered unkind things about those who did the dirty deed. Just within the past few weeks, the City of Port St. Joe has launched upon an ambitious plan to construct a fine recreational complex in North Port St. Joe on the old Washington High School site. Work got underway a few days ago, with rehabilitation of the old gymnasium as the first project. This would give the kids a place to play with a fine basketball court and a building repaired to upgrade the neighborhood and give a center for other games and activities. Know what has already happen- ed? The contractor had barely got to work when someone knocked a hole in the wall of the old gym, gained entrance to the building, stole all the contractors tools and defecated all over the floor. There is something like $80,000 going into this project. If it is allowed to become the victim of vandals, it will probably be a cold day in August before anyone can be found who will be willing to go through the expense of building it back. Etaoin , Shrdlu WESLEY R. RAMSEY b O isn't bragging if the proof is there. The I Letters. to the Editor year term. This commission I have in my possession. As I see it, my concern presently in regards to the state of my term of office depends upon whether I be- lieve the Governor of the State of Florida, the Secretary of State, my official commission bearing the seal of the State of Florida on the one hand or the editor of the Star and street gossip on the other. Mr. Ramsey, I respectfully request that you print a re- traction for those statements appearing in your recent edi- torial that were obviously incorrect. May you, in the future, exert the high degree of diligence required of one in such a responsible position to assure that no one is inten- tionally misled or unnecessar- ily slandered. Sincerely, David L. Taunton (EDITOR'S NOTE-Judge, you evidently read something in our article (not an editorial) of last week which we didn't intend to impart. After re- reading the article, we still cannot find basis for any objection on your part. Our article clearly stated that what was written was conjec- ture. We admit to the mistake of saying you were the only judge to run in the "small" election, if your statements concerning the other three judges are correct. All judges we have heard of seeking election, did so in the "big" election year. You intimate in your letter (paragraph 4) that the editor of The Star says you do not have four years to serve. The editor of The Star did not, nor has not said that, either in private conversation or in an article in this newspaper. We said "There is a cloudy spot in the law about whether he will have to run again. HIS OP- PONENTS SAY he has to run; Mr. Wesley Ramsey, Editor The Star Port St. Joe, Florida 32456 Dear Mr. Ramsey: In a recent editorial (6-10- 76), you apparently were ill Sadvised as 'to certain facts about which you wrote. Being the editor of a newspaper is a tremendous- responsibility. Readers depend to a great extent upon our newspapers to be enlightened. For the two hundred years of our nation's history, newspapers have ad- mirably served the vital func- tion of searching out and revealing the truth to the American public. Editors dur- ing this time have set high standards for themselves in order to earn and retain the confidence and respect of their readers. Your statement in a recent editorial that I would be the only County Judge within the State to run in the "small" election year is totally without merit. The fact is that Judge Flack of Wakulla County, Judge Nichols of Santa Rosa County, Judge Hunt and Judge MacCalla of Polk County, to name a few, will be running two years from now. Judge Hunt has been running in the "small" election year for over 20 years. As to your statement that I am claiming that I have been elected for a four year term, please be advised that when I paid a full qualifying fee in 1974, the Secretary of State informed me that I was run- ning for a four year term. Upon being elected by the good people of Gulf County, I received a letter from the Chief Election Officer of this State, verifying that I was elected for a four year term. I then received my official com- mission from the Governor's Office bearing the Governor's signature and the signature of the Secretary of State, stating that I was elected for a four A week ago this past Sunday, all us Ramsey boys got together and gave our parents a reception for the occasion of their Golden Wedding Anniversary. Usually, it's the ladies of the family who get together and give the receptions, plan all the doings, make the little sandwiches and come up with the punch recipe. They say who will stand where and who will do what and just how the room will be arranged and etc., etc. We had a problem in our family. All our girls turned out to be boys five of us. I don't think there is two ounces of reception planning technique in all five of us. You consider that along with the fact that we had never given our parents a golden wedding anniversary reception before and you come up with the un-popped kernel in the box of crackerjacks. We didn't know what to do, so we just did it. All the brothers came down from "Hot-Lan- ta" and from Chattahoochee, along with their wives and offspring. The brothers put on their - coats and ties in the hot weather and the girls put on their long dresses (saving the short ones for the chilling days of winter) and we had a reception doing what none of us do naturally and trying to appear as if we were.. Momma and Daddy were in the same boat. They weren't use to having us boys do things like this for them, but they tried to act as if it were an everyday occurance and did a pretty good job of it. Vho's going The thing which was surprising to me wasn't ey begin to that Momma and Daddy have actually been Star photo married for 50 years, but that my brothers have aged so in the past few years. They're beginning ,w *--. to look definitely middle-aged. Maybe they should have stayed in Port St. Joe, like me, rather than roam all over the South. he claims he doesn't". Since there is doubt enough about your position for those wishing to seek election to your office to question the Attorney General about it, asking for an official opinion, we .think we are on firm ground when wesay "There is a cloudy spot in the law " As for 'gossip on the street" deciding whether or not you have to run, that "gossip" is very real and is the very reason the paragraph was written in the first place. If you would go back again and read the first three words in the paragraph which alludes to your position, you will find the words, "There are rumors . ." If you aren't aware of these questions of the people, we would suggest you just put your ear to the ground. We know we err on occa- sion; everybody does. We are glad to correct ours. So if you will forgive our error con- cerning judges being elected in "small" election years, we'll forgive yours for insin- uating that we would inten- tionally mislead anybody.) On Tour In Mediterranean Navy Personnelman Second Class Graham S. Ellis, 30, son of Rev. and Mrs. Sidney G. Ellis of Port St. Joe, has de- parted Norfolk, Va., for an extended deployment to the Mediterranean as a member of Attack Squadron 176, em- barked aboard the aircraft carrier USS America. His squadron, homeported at the Naval Air Station, Oceana, Va., will operate as a unit of the U. S. Sixth Fleet during this deployment. A 1964 graduate of Hillwood High School, Nashville, Tenn., he joined the Navy in July, 1964. I told you I would report to you about how Jimmy Greer's "secret formula" did in the growing of the tomatoes he gave me earlier in the spring. I couldn't swear that what he gave me did the trick, but the trick was certainly done. I have tomato bushes with up to 50 tomatoes to the bush. and still putting out.. Several of the plants are just killing-themselves,- putting out so many tomatoes, they are breaking off the limbs. Those tomatoes are bearing fruit in clusters like grapes and causing untold anguish for the vines. I have taken to propping up the clusters rather than resort to the usual practice of tying up the limbs. I don't know what the main ingredient was in Jimmy's miracle fertilizer he gave me with the plants, but I have an idea. I know you have read stories of these couples who seemingly cannot have babies and the doctor puts the woman on fertility pills? The first thing you know she is pregnant with three, four and five babies being commomplace after using the fertility pills. I think this is what Jimmy put in his miracle tomato fertilizer fertility pills! We print the Weekly Spokesman of Lynn Haven each week in addition to our own paper and others. Last Wednesday morning, the editor, Jim Rogers came in with his copy, looking wrung out and about ready to fall on his face. I asked him what was wrong and he replied, "Oh, you know how hard it is to come up with a subject for a column each week. This week I couldn't generate a subject until about 10:00 last night and by the time I got it written and made up in the page, it was late-thirty when I finally got to bed". I gave him the benefit of my sage advice and told him he just had to stare at the wall all that much harder when the subject wouldn't come. He said, "Man, I even considered writing a column about staring at a blank wall trying to think of something to write, but I thought I better. save that one until I really get desperate." Then I became jealous. If you would look at the wall I have to stare at while trying to come up with something to fill this column each week, I haven't even got enough there to make it a standby to fall back on. My blank wall just wouldn't be good grist for a column. It was made only to stare at. Does "Big Business" Really Run America? (Reprint from Santa Ana Register) "Big business runs Ameri- ca." It's an oft-repeated charge, seldom challenged. But it should be challenged. Richard L. Lesher, president of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, tells how. Lesher suggests that you ask yourself the following questions. If you were running America would you: -Allow consumerists to call you nasty names? -Allow the environmen- talists to hold up your con- struction projects? -Allow politicians to legis- late against you? -Submit meekly to needless investigations by the Federal Trade Commission, the Sec- urity and Exchange Commis- sion, the Internal Revenue Service and others? -Put up with instructors actively hostile to capitalism? -Allow wild charges against you to be spread across front pages and TV screens? -Capitulate time after time to the demands of labor unions? Not if you were "Running America" you wouldn't. Lesher acknowledges that American business does have economic power, "and it is en- tirely legitimate for society to inquire whether it is being used wisely." The principal problem, he says, is that people are con- fused about what they want out of business-as a social in- stitution. Lesher suggests we consi- der, for example, only one segment of business, the big companies that operate in more than one country, usual- ly called "multinational cor- porations." These are some of the spe- cial problems confronting the multinationals: -If a U. S. multinational builds a factory overseas in more than one country and provides jobs for the people in the host country, that's good. But when it does so, it is ac- cused of "exporting" jobs from the United States and that's bad. (It's also untrue. Overseas operations tend to expand employment here too.) -If a multinational pays workers in the host country the prevailing local wage (low), it is accused of "ex- ploiting" the foreign workers. But if it pays the foreign workers more than prevailing local wages, it is accused of competing unfairly with the other local employers. -If a multinational obeys local laws and customs when operating in a foreign country, it may engage in some prac- tices there that are not per- mitted in the United States. On the other hand, if it tries to impose U. S. values on the host country it is accused of arro- gance and "cultural imperial- ism." As a simple test for a "Big Business" hater, Lesher sug- gests asking, "Which big busi- ness is running America?" And "How is it running Amer- ica?" and last, "And how did it get all the other big busi- nesses to sit still for that?" You may be astonished to find that the haters are very emotional people.

TH TR otSt oFa HUSAJN 7,17 AEFV England's Oppressive War Debt Triggered Revolution Oppressive taxes led to the rebellion of the American colonists against England, lo- cal historian Charles Smith told the Kiwanis Club Tues- day. Smith said the seeds of the rebellion were sown as early as 1763 when England was just coming out of the Seven Years War with France, which re-. sulted in some of the French and Indian War skirmishes here on the American main- land. England ended the war with a national debt of nearly 150 million pounds and King New Voter Drive Is Under Way A voters: registration drive is now under way and is being conducted by Canty Jones, Deputy Supervisor of Elec- tions. The site is located on Main Street in North Port St. Joe. The purpose of this drive is to get more youth involve- ment in government and cre- ate a better image for our political system. This program is by no means intended to exclude anyone but we must empha- size the importance of youth voting in a Democratic Sys- tem.

BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Sellers announce the birth of their son, Victor Love born on June 7, weighing 10 lbs. and 3'/4 ounces. Proud grandparents are Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Seers... of Wewahitchka, GraceWeeks of Port St. Joe and Bruce Weeks of Chatta- hoochee. George looked to the Colonies to pay for a major portion of the debt. England inflicted the Navigation Act, Molasses Act and numerous acts forbidding manufacturing in the Colonies in an effort to foster the sale of. British goods and collect bur- densome taxes from their colony in the new world. Most of the taxes were abolished by the early 1770's, but the Tea Tax remained so King George could assert his right to assess taxes in his colony. The Americans felt they were taxed unjustly with- out representation and so re- sorted to smuggling, sabo- tage and acts of rebellion against the King, which even- tually erupted into the Revolu- tionary War. Smith said that, while the war lasted for eight years, it might have been over in a short few months if more of the colonists were sympathe- tic to the cause of revolution. More than 40 percent of the Americans were still loyal to the king when the war began and seriously' hampered the revolutionists in their efforts. George Washington, a Vir- ginia southerner, was selected to lead the army made up largely of northern colonists because of his reputation as a soldier, a gentleman of means and a moderate. The leaders of the revolution wanted to avoid the reputation of a mob of zealots led by still another radical. Washington's army was small throughout the war and never numbered more than 25,000 men. When the war began there were only three cities in the colonies with populations of 25,000. It was 37 years after the revolution before New York City attained a population of 100,000. Florida's part in the revolu- tion was largely one of provid- ing sanctuary. for the Tories who were hounded by the patriots who wanted freedom. Florida had been turned over to England by Spain during the Seven Years War and did not revolt. Left to right: Minnie ,Likely, honoree Drucilla Henderson and the honoree's mother, Eloise Henderson.

The ;6 million acres of productive forest lands make major contributions to the state's economic, social and recreational well being. An estimated $1.9 billion is contributed annually to Flor- ida's economy from the har- vesting, primary and secon- dary manufacturing, trans- portation and marketing of timber, according to the Flor- ida Division of Forestry, De- partment of Agriculture and Consumer Services. The Division is charged by the Florida Legislature with the protection, .promotion of. proper management and utili- zation of forest resources. In carrying out that man- date, the local county forester stands ready to assist private and public users with help on their forest questions. Land- owners in Gulf County can contact him at 715 West 15th. Street, Panama City, Florida 32401. More than 1,000 Division employees with a variety of skills are dedicated to the single goal of obtaining the 'maximum use of the forests for the good of Florida's residents. They handle such diverse duties as fighting wildfires and forest pests, growing tree seedlings at three state nur- series, .managing four state forests and providing informa- tion to Florida's citizens and timber processors. In addition, foresters assist in urban areas with city developmental planning. They often make tree canopy analy- ses, street tree surveys aind help promote community beautification programs. There are 17 district offices with personnel ready to serve the public located throughout the state. A check of the telephone book under State of Florida will list the number and address of the office nearest you. Pamphlets, booklets and films dealing with forest and environmental subjects are also available to the public from the Division's headquar- ters in the Collins Building in Tallahassee or your *local county forester.

I think the public needs to be aware of, and in support of the fine work being done there. I have felt impressed to write this report of my obser- vations, by no means com- plete.

TRAINING CENTER For 13 years, it is a facility for care of mentally retarded citizens. But much more it is 663 programs, individually de- signed to help each client reach his greatest potential. It is 700 employees serving, presently 663 clients through four main departments. The ultimate goal of all Sun- land, is to allow, encourage, aid the, clients to progress to optimal levels of development and if possible to return to the community at a functioning level. Therefore training is geared toward normalcy. Education in four areas, food, shelter, clothing and bodies, is covered each week with each client, in some way. The way may be in school, by domestic skills, or by Suntown Mall experiences in daily liv- ing. This education is provided consistently and with rein- forcements by certified spe- cial education teachers. The interdisciplinary client program (ICP), seeking to make clients less dependent supervises from afar when clients are ready to practice making their own choices pre-, paratory to moving-back into the community. Vocational training with 25 full-time staffers, directs in- dividual programs for 400 of the clients. The philosophy is to build up self confidence. For many this. is their first opportunity to succeed. Being paid for real work, they can feel proud and important, needed as human beings, through such jobs as farming, horticulture, building, rug- making and ceramics, hotel services and many others. The recreation department involves every client during the year. It is not just play- time. but a therapeutic ap- proach, teaching basic skills of play, progressing to group activities and hopefully pro- gressing to individual ability in play participation and choice of leisure time activi- ties. The medical services in- clude four doctors and two dentists with a 30-bed infir- mary, clinics, labs, pharmacy and nurses. Each client and employee is given annual phy- sicals and -clients are treated for illness or injury. Total medical records and client drug profiles are kept. Ser- vices in the surrounding areas are secured for clients who need them. Social Services call their three social workers, Case Managers, a more descriptive title. They stand as advocate for the client and link with the family, encouraging the new- er focus goal "Return to home as soon as possible". The key is assessment and abilitative programing, then reassess, over and over, as the program is implemented. The "habit of failure becomes the habit of success" as this group does everything to meet the needs of the clients. Cottage life in 26 units em- ploys 300 workers. The clients are arranged according to composite factors of sex, age, and functional level and are provided with basic care and reinforcement for self-care. ,Cottage life provides stimuli, consistency and the "Mama" figure, allowing each client to give and receive expressions of love and respect. As a student, I have seen another side of life to view; one where the cards seem not -to have been dealt fairly, yet SFFREE.

For I saw,. the enthusiasm and faith of their' teachers, and each worker I met considered themselves teacher. I saw the skill and knowledge and compassion each worker brought to his task. I saw the client's eyes as they interacted with their teachers.

THURSDAY. .INE 17. 1976 PAGE ELEVEN * Kenneth BowmanRides 2,000 Miles On Bike In this day and time, when a young man or woman can't walk a half a block, Kenneth Bowman decided he would take a little bike ride and shun the modern convenience of the automobile. Kenny left his home on Wescott Circle May 9 on his bicycle, bound for Canada and on to the college in Vermont he would attend in the fall. He arrived in Canada on June 4 after buying nine new tires (at $10.00 a tire) and a lot of pumping those bike pedals. Kenny is shown in the picture (right) in Bowmansville, Pennsylvania where he took a rest stop to visit an uncle who owns a store there. He is now on his way to Plainfield, Vt., still riding the bike, where he will attend Goddard College. His trip will take him approximately 2,000 miles. Little "Kojak " There's nothing like the first warm days of summer to bring out the original ideas in the mind of a boy and there's nothing like having a few willing friends on hand to help carry out these ideas. Last week Danny McDermott and his pals thought it would be great fun to shave the head of one of their number. Danny drew the short straw and was selected to have his first shaving job performed even before peach fuzz showed up on his chin. Danny's buddies pitched right in and before you know it, Danny was doing a "Kojak" number and will be for a few more weeks to come. It's obvious which' boy is Danny. The others who held him down, wielded the shaving brush and razor are, left to right: Tim Montgomery, Mark Kilbourn, David Sullivan, Greg Wood, Tim Stutzman and FrankieWilliams.
