In Paper Company Canal ..


16-Year-Old Boy Drowns



While Swimming Tuesday


With the muggy heat pres-
ent here Tuesday afternoon, it
must have seemed like a good
idea to the seven teen-age
boys involved to take a cooling
swim. What seemed like a
good idea to the seven, turned
out to be tragedy for one.
Rodney Stanley Chambers,
16-year-old son of Mr. and
Mrs. Alvin Chambers of 419
Main Street, was drowned
while frolicking in the St. Joe
Paper Company fresh water


canal at a point just above
where water is collected from
the canal by the City of Port
St. Joe and the St. Joe Paper
Company.
The drowning occurred about
4:30 p.m., Tuesday afternoon,
and the body was recovered
by the Sheriff's Department
deputies at 5:50 p.m.
According to witnesses, the
area is a favorite swimming
spot for youths of the area. A


railroad trestle crosses the
canal at this point and offers a
ready-made diving board.
According to the boys at the
scene, young Chambers, who
could not swim, dived off the
trestle into the water to at-
tempt to swim across the
canal. He couldn't make it and
two of his companions,
Charles Peterson and Paul
Wright, attempted to get him
out of the water but couldn't
manage to bring him all the


way to the surface.
While the Sheriff's Deputies
were waiting for divers to
arrive on the scene to attempt
to retrieve the body, young
Chambers was spotted on the
bottom of the canal by by-
standers and several young
men dove into the canal and
retrieved the body.
The canal was four to six
feet deep at the point of the
drowning.

K.E. "Ken" Murphy


Will Enter Race


K. E. "Ken" Murphy, 15-
year resident of Gulf County
today announced his intention
of seeking election as County
Sheriff.
The 40-year-old Murphy, a
native of Northwest Florida,
has been a member of the
Florida Highway Patrol for
the past 19 years. "My train-
ing and experience qualifies
me to offer Gulf County citi-
zens a professionally operated
Sheriff's Department-but,
not so professional we forget
about the people of the coun-
ty".
Murphy said that if elected,
"The Sheriff's office will be
open to everyone without an
appointment. I want to serve
all the people." He said "there
should be a full-time office in
Wewahitchka, not a some-
times effort on certain days.
This is something that has
been needed for years."
During nearly two decades
of law enforcement Murphy has
attended more than a dozen
training schools including
civil disorder prevention and
homicide investigation at
Florida State University, and
four F.B.I training schools.
While stationed in Gulf
County, Murphy has been
awarded a number of citations
and awards for meritorious
service, including a distin-
quished service award by the
Miami Beach Chamber of
Commerce. "A citation from

Murphy is a member of the
White City Baptist Church,
Port St. Joe Quarterback
Club, Port St. Joe Lions Club,
Police Benevolent Association
and Florida Peace Officers

year.
Dr. Conger pointed out to
the Commission that the Clinic
was set up to receive $1,200
from the County back in 1972,
when it handled slightly over
500 clients a year and today, is
still receiving $1,200 per year
from the county, but to date
this year, has offered services
for over 2,000 clients. In view
of the increased activity and
increased staff, Dr. Conger
put in his bid for county
funding at the rate of $3,00 for
next year.
Dr. Conger was questioned
at length about services pro-
vided the school system,
which he said were paid for by
the School Board at the rate of
$3,000 per year.

about students being treated

in Debate' in the Florida

of an issue than Billy Joe
Rish."
"Rep. Rish is one man
who, when he rises to
debate an issue, commands
the attention of his collea-
gues. His further effective-
-- ness -.is reflected in the
outstanding representation
that he gives the citizens of
his district and the State of
Florida. It is truly a plea-
sure and an honor serving
with him in the House of
Representatives," Tucker
added.

David S. Dunham has taken
over his duties as administra-
tor of the Municipal Hospital
this week. Dunham is filling a

vacancy left by the resigna-
tion of former administrator,
Richard Zyski last fall. During
the past several months, Mrs.
Jean Atchison, comptroller at
the institution, has been serv-
ing in the administration ca-
pacity.
Dunham has already moved
to Port St. Joe and purchased
a home on Long Avenue. His
wife, Carol, will be joining him
on August 1, after she com-
pletes her studies at the
University of Richmond, in
Richmond, Virginia.
The new administrator has
already reported to his new
duties in presiding over his
first Hospital Board meeting'
Tuesday afternoon.
A native of Washington,
Pennsylvania, Dunham has
served four years in the U.S.
Air Force and did his under-
graduate work toward a de-
gree in Hospital Administra-
tion at the University of
Tennessee. He received his
Master's degree from the
Medical College of Virginia in
Richmond. He has served a
year's residency at the Mc-
Guire Veterans Administra-
tion Hospital in Richmond.
Dunham says for relaxa-
tion, he likes to study birds,
photography, fishing and
camping.


Sheriff Raymond Lawrence
announced his intention to
seek re-election to the office of
Sheriff of Gulf County this
week, an office which he has
held since 1973.
Lawrence, a native of Gulf
County, has lived in Port St.
Joe 33 of his 44 years. He and
his wife, the former Edwena
Howell, also of Port St. Joe,
have five teenage sons and
reside at 114 Bellamy Circle.
Lawrence was educated in
Gulf County schools and at-
tended Ohio State University.
He is a Korean veteran, an
active member of the First
Baptist Church and the Gulf
County Volunteer Ambulance
Board. His involvement with
the youth of the county in
such organizations as the Boy
Scouts of America and Dixie
Youth baseball dates back 20
years.
The Sheriff says that one of
the areas that he looks to with
pride is the Volunteer Ambu-
lance Service. He was a mem-
ber of a small committee
which led the way in organi-
zing this outstanding service
for the people of Gulf County.
Lawrence says that the
"People's Office of Sheriff" is
the last office in the state
where the lonely, weary and
oppressed can find relief with-
out due process under the law.
Serving the people and being
able to help my fellow man
has meant very much to me. It


is the most rewarding part of
being Sheriff, says Lawrence.
He also states that it has been
his goal to bring the office of
the Sheriff closer to the people
and in doing sq has brought
about many necessary
changes in the office.
When he took office in 1973,
violence in the schools, drugs
on the streets and a rising
crime rate was the order of
the day, says Lawrence.
Today, he says, with the help
of dedicated personnel and
many other citizens of this
county, we are enjoying one of
the quietest times in recent
years. Lawrence further
states that the crime rate in

EDITORIALS:



Chalk One Up for



Nuclear Powier


We scanned the papers for
nearly a week before we learned
whether or not the voters of Califor-
nia had approved or opposed nuclear
power' plants in that state of the
earthquake.
At last, during the middle of the
week last week, we came across a
column by James J. Kilpatrick
stating that the-people of the home of
Ronald Reagan, Jerry Brown and
Gene Autry had voted more than two
to one to allow the construction of
atomic power plants.
Kilpatrick says this is a fantas-
tic vote, considering the fact that
California is also the home of the
:"giddy starlets, crazy professors,
.hippies, yippies, food nuts, nudists,
cultists, beach boys and the "Sons
and Daughters of I Will Arise" not to
mention, Jane Fonda, Robert Red-
ford and Abbie Hoffman.
The syndicated writer goes on to
say, "At any given daylight mo-
ment, more people are in their cars
than are in their homes. To contem-
plate lunacy, contemplate San Fran-
cisco: Nobody in his right mind
would have built a city on these
precipitate hills".
Kilpatrick said, "In view of this


cheerful madness, it was therefore
all the more ..encouraging that
California's voters last week reject-
ed 'Proposition 15' (banning nuclear
power plants) by a margin of two to
one. Those who supported the
proposition made no bones about
it: Their purpose was to halt the
construction of nuclear plants.
Ralph Nadar said he would rather
see the people go back to candles
than have their lamps lighted by
electricity from nuclear genera-
tion."
The experience of this episode in
California enforces the simple faith
that if the American people are
given both sides of the picture, they
will, in most cases, choose that
which is best.
European countries, notably
France, Italy and Germany will
have the bulk of their electricity
generated by nuclear generators by
the mid-1980's. In this era of fading
fossil fuel and the national trend to
steer clear of polluting fuels such as
some coal supplies, it is only natural
that a highly industrialized nation
such as the United States rely on
nuclear power, at least until some-
thing better comes along.


Senator Jesse Helms offered
some thought-provoking comments
recently in a communication to his
constituents in North Carolina con-
cerning the news media.
Said he: "I talked the other day
with a prominent Washington cor-
respondent who expressed great
concern at what he described as the
growing emphasis on 'advocacy
journalism.' As he put it: 'Objective
news reporting is almost a relic of a
bygone era. Too many people in the
business are no longer content with
reporting the news; they want to tell
the American people what to think,
instead of setting forth the facts and
letting the people make up their own
minds.'
* "I suspect that' he may be
correct-certainly insofar as the
major news media of the country are
concerned. Very often, the major
television networks can be found
operating almost in unison, twisting

Open House
The Gulf County Adult Act-

house this Friday, June 25, at

A and B. The open house will
be from 10:00a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Everyone is cordially invited
to attend.


Dear Mr. Ramsey:
As another school year ends,
I would like to take this oppor-
tunity to thank you for your
continued support of the Girl
Scout program. From recruit-
ing efforts in the fall right on
through the cookie sale, we
have been most pleased with
the assistance that you have
given us.
Over this past year, our
Council served 4,500 girls. We
helped to organize troops and
recruit leaders so that Girl
Scouting could be made avail-
able to girls who wanted to be


the emphasis on a news event,
emphasizing one side of an issue
while ignoring the other. The same
is true with many big-city news-
papers.
"The smaller newspapers and
local broadcasters seldom fall into
that format. They make an honest
effort to give both sides, limiting
their personal. views to their editor-
ials."
Senator Helms might have ad-
ded that one factor today is that
many schools of journalism teach
and promote "advocacy journal-
ism". Now smaller newspapers not
only have the job of teaching
journalism grads to write news
articles, they have the added task of
teaching them to be objective.
As we see it, Senator Helms'
Washington correspondent friend is
not only right, but he has paid a
long-overdue compliment to the
"small" grass-roots newspapers.

ETAOIN SHRDLU

By WESLEY R. RAMSEY


Dr. Tom Gibson, our retired resident
Optometrist (removed from Huntsville, Ala-
bama to Port St. Joe) was presiding at Rotary
Club last Thursday for the first time since his
recent throat operation. Dr. Gibson had a hickey
in his throat which he wished the doctors to take
care of.
In his report Thursday, in a whispered voice
(he didn't show his scar) Dr. Gibson said just as
he was on the operating table waiting for the
anesthetic to take affect, he asked his surgeon,
"Doctor, this operation will it impair my
throat in any way... will I be able to sing after it
is all over and healed up?"
The doctor assured him, "By all means,
you'll be able to sing like a bird after we patch

however, would be possible

Post Office Tries Sale
When merchants in Port St. Joe need to raise a little cash to pay invoices, pay
taxes, take a vacation or various and sundry other things, they run a sale: sometimes
they run a half price sale, just as this sign says the Post Office is doing.
This sign cropped up in the lobby of the local Post Office last week,
advertising a half price sale on various items. If the sales gimmick works for private
businesses in the area, it should help the Post Office see through its recently
publicized cash flow problems. Maybe the half price sale promotion could be worked
across the nation to once again make the Post Office a sound business.
Like all half price sales, the Post Office version was offering the local version of
an ice box sale in Alaska in the winter time. There were no stamps, money orders or
post office boxes being sold at the bargain rate. -Star photo


you up".
"That's good", said Dr. Gibson, "I'm
looking forward to the future; in the past I
haven't been able to sing a note and I always
wanted to".
That joke's an old groaner, but Dr. Gibson
said it for an actual happening.

Around at the director's meeting of the
Florida National Bank last Thursday afternoon,
during a break, Dick McIntosh said his wife had
put the word on him to buy her a new car, so he
was looking for a new Cadillac with which to
appease Miss Sarah.
Mac was a little put out that manufacturers
were going to begin making all cars shorter next
year. "I don't like small cars," Mac grouched.
I looked him in the eye and said, "Mr. Mac,
you have plenty of money; you always pay cash
for your cars. Why don't you just buy four
Cadillacs this year and you will have enough full
sized cars to do you for the rest of your life."
M.r. Mac never blinked an eye or missed a
t'cue in'the coriversatibn Whe'n h shot back ith,
"Why is that, do I look sick?"
I give up on someone who is 83 years old and
thinks he can out-live four new Cadillacs.

I read in the paper Saturday morning where
researchers say the love-bug infestation this
year has been unusually light. The ones who
have nothing else to do but count love-bugs every
year say the robins have learned to eat their
larvae in the bahia grass pastures where they
reproduce and the armadillos are even being
given credit with helping to keep the familiar
bugs in check.
I hadn't thought about it, but I don't think I
have seen but a very few love-bugs this season. I
looked at the front of my car and it is reasonable
clean. Of course, it hasn't been washed since
Thanksgiving, but the presence of love-bugs is
notably missing.
I sure hope the ecologists don't get
concerned about the waning population of
love-bugs and go on another vendetta to "protect
a fading species". This species can go ahead and
become as scarce as a left handed pitcher pump
so far as I am concerned.

It was interesting to me to note last Tuesday
in the historical talk by Charles Smith to the
Kiwanis Club, that the English had a national
debt of over 350 million pounds back prior to
America's Revolutionary War. In present day
dollars this would probably amount to as much
or more than the current national debt of the
United States. England came out of her debt,
then and went on to become the most powerful
and far-flung nation in the world, with influence
in every corner of the globe.
I'm not saying that I have come to accept the
national debt of the United States, in its current
astronomical state, but it would seem that there
is at least hope of paying it off and continuing to
be a vibrant, powerful and active nation. I think
we have much more going for us now than
England had going for it back then.
It's also interesting to remember that
England came out of her debt through maintain-
ing the largest fleet in the world and through
active trade. We here in America are now
soul-searching whether or not to enlarge,
maintain or allow our navy and shipping to
regress. A look at England's history would bear
witness to the fact that we need to maintain and
enlarge our position on the seas.

The "Chuckle" in the Tallahassee Demo-
crat, the other day, was telling about the new
invention; the solar powered clothes dryer. It's
called a clothes line.
It's companion is a washing machine which
has all its parts guaranteed for life. It's called a
scrub board.
Both have been tried and tested by their
users but never proved to be very popular.

Seat Restraints Protect

Children In Auto Crash


Children under 15 years of
age are least 'likely to be
injured in an automobile crash,
if restrained and in the back

the Florida Highway Patrol

Colonel Eldrige Beach, Pa-
trol director said, "Recent

Puppet

Show At

Library
A Bicentennial puppet show,
"Happy Birthday, America",
will be shown at the St. Joe
Public Library, Tuesday,
June 29, at 10:30 a.m. Admis-
sion is free and all age chil-
dren are invited.
This is one of the activities
that the Northwest Regional
Library System is sponsoring
during the summer reading
program which runs through
August 14. Theme for the sum-
mer reading program is
"Happy Birthday to U. S.",
with reading folders, puzzles,
story hours and other activi-

involving 26,971 passengers
less than 15 years of age
.indicated that children are
most likely to be injured in a
crash if they are in the right
front seat and have no re-
straining equipment such as a
seat belt to keep them from
hurtling forward and striking
the windshield or dash."
The study proved that just
by keeping children in the
back seat reduced the injury
rate by 28 percent. The use of
restraints such as seat belts or
child restraints reduced the
injury rate by 39 percent in the
front seat and 31 percent in
back.
Colonel Beach concluded b3
saying, "Compared to the cost
of insurance, the simple act of
seeing that your children are
properly restrained while tra-
veling in a car may be the
greatest bargain of your life."

sant recreation, states Hal
Summers, District Conserva-
tionist. If you like to fish
and own property that is suit-
able for a pond site, then
you're missing out on an ex-
perience of your life if you're
not putting this valued com-
modity to use.
Fishponds are successful! if
they are managed well. Such
fish as largemouth bass, blue-


gill, redear sunfish and catfish
are best suited for ponds.
Management of your pond
requires more than building,
stocking and fishing the pond.
Fish quality is influenced by
such natural water -qualities
as temperature, oxygen, acid-
ity or alkalinity and muddi-
ness. Pollution can also be a
hazard and a nuisance. The
amount of water that flows


through a pond is important
too.
Ponds are delightful and
greatly enhance the beauty of
your home as well as your re-
creational activities. In a suit-,
able site ponds make good use
of the land and have many
uses. If you are interested in
building a pond for recrea-
tional benefits, whether boat-
ing, swimming, picnicking or

"The cautious seldom err."
Confucius


our country has continued to
climb at an alarming rate, but
here in Gulf County the rate is
far below the state and nation-
al average. This, he says, is
due to crime prevention tech-
niques employed by his de-
partment. Lawrence says that
the crime solution rate in our
county is better than anytime
in its history.
The Sheriff says that one of
his goals in these last four
years has been to give the
people better and faster re-
sponse to complaints. This has
been accomplished by putting
more patrol deputies on each
shift. Many new services are
now being enjoyed by the
people of Gulf County through
the efforts of the Sheriff's
Auxiliary. This organization
was formed by Sheriff Law-
rence to give added support to
his department in upholding
the law and to give the people
a variety of other services at
no expense to the taxpayers.
Sheriff Lawrence says that
he and his family have enjoy-
ed serving the people of Gulf
County these past four years
and that he wishes to continue,
to serve as Sheriff the next
four years. "If the people
should see fit to re-elect me,"
says Lawrence, "I will strive


to enforce the laws of this
state and our nation impar-
tially without regard to race,
color, creed or financial posi-
tion."

Listen Closely

A group of Port St. Joe sixth graders

program held at the White City Fire Center in

mon (not shown) explains the many danger
of forest fires to the students and as Ranger
Redmon's imaginary fire grew larger. .so
did the bubbles! All ended well with a softball
game and dinner on the grounds. Plus, the
"fire" was suppressed and the bubbles re-
ceded.

S." summer reading program

Voting GARC Training Retarded


Machine to Take Care of Needs


wI


Lessons
Instructions in the use of
voting machines are now be-
ing offered in the office of Mrs.
Dessie Parker, Supervisor of
Elections. She will be giving
daily instructions along with
Canty Jones, Deputy Super-
visor, on basic mechanics in
the use of the machines.
The time allotted for these
instructions will be from June
23 to July 24, during regular
office hours. Anyone who is
not familiar with the use of the
voting machine may contact
Mrs. Parker or Jones.
Transportation to the Super-
visor's office in the courthouse
will be arranged by L. C.
Clark of North Port St. Joe.


Retarded persons who are
clients of the Gulf Association
of Retarded Citizens are ei-
ther trainable or educable,
Miss Carol Tate, director of
the GARC program here in
Port St. Joe told the Retail
Merchants Association mem-
bers last Friday at their
monthly program meeting.
Most retardation is due to
birth accidents, improper diet
in youth, illness and accidents,
Miss Tate told the merchants.
She said many are trainable to
meet their own everyday
needs, but will need the guid-
ing hand of someone for the
remainder of their lives. Oth-
ers, who she termed "edu-
cable", can be trained to hold
certain jobs and can become
self-sustaining. "It's a slow


process which takes a lot of
patience", she said. "We take
it one step at a time with as
little confusion as possible".
. The local GARC center re-
ceives clients 18 years of age
or older from Sunland in
Marianna. Their purpose is to
keep the trainable people in a
sheltered environment and
train them to meet their daily
needs. She pointed out there
are currently two foster group
homes in the Port St. Joe
area-one at Mexkco Beach
and 'one at Money Bayou
which give the clients the
benefit of a home-like atmos-
phere. The client's care is paid
for by a portion of their Social
Security disability benefits.
At present, the center is
located at 113 Main Street here

There being no further busi-
ness, the board adjourned.
May 21, 1976
The Gulf County School
Board met in special session
at 4:00 p.m., May 21, with the
following members present:
Herman Ard, Chairman;
Gene Raffield; J.K. Whitfield;
Wallace Guillot; and Fred
Greer.
The Superintendent and
Board Attorney were present.
On motion by Greer, se-
conded by Raffield, the board
unanimously granted profess-
ional leave to Karen Price for
June 2 through June 14, 1976.


Motion was made by Greer,
seconded by Guillot, that the
property adjacent to the base-
ball field be appraised as the
City of Port St. Joe desires to
purchase this property from
the board for the construction
of a water tower. All voted
YES.
On recommendation of the
Superintendent, motion by
Raffield, seconded by Whit-
field, all voted YES to accept
the best and lowest bid of
Williams Construction Com-
pany for-the Physical Edilca-
tion Complex at Wewahitchka
High School. The Superinten-
dent was directed to notify the
successful bidder and to re-
quest that the project be
expedited in every way.
The Superintendent pre-
sented a list of members that


were recommended to repre-
sent administration during
negotiations.
Board Member Raffield's
statement was that the ap-
pointment of the members
was the responsibility of the
Superintendent and did not
need board approval. Board
Member Guillot's statement
was "not having seen the
names of the negotiating
team, I concur with Mr. Raf-
field's statement." Board
member Ard also concurred
with Mr. Raffield's statement.
The recommendation failed
with Greer and Whitfield
voting AYE; and Ard, and
Guillot and Raffield voting
NAY.
There being no further busi-
ness, the board adjourned to
meet again June 8, 1976.

Threatens Roses


By Cubie Laird
County Extension Director
Be prepared to save flowers
from diseases that can cut
short a show of color around
the home.
Keep the bifocals adjusted
for a glimpse of black spot on
roses. It's caused by a fungus.
The ailment is E(specially
troublesome during rainy
weather, but it may strike at
any time.
Symptoms include black
spots on leaves showing irre-
gular or radiating margins.
The larger spots often are sur-
rounded by a yellow halo.
In a severe attack, defolia-
tion occurs, followed by
severe weakening and possi-
bly death of the rose bush.
Spores of the fungus are
spread by splashing rain or by
mechanical contact when the
leaves are wet and air move-
ment when they are dry. In
warm weather, spores often
germinate and infect rose
leaves within a six-hour
period.
It's best to prevent black
spot rather than try to cure it
after the plant is infected.
Some gardeners apply protec-
tive dusts or sprays at weekly

payments," Robinson said.
"The increase will be added
automatically."
The increase is based on the
rise in consumer prices from
the first three months of 1975
to the first three months of
1976.
With the cost-of-living in-
crease, average social secur-
ity retirement payments to
retired workers will go from
$210 to $224 a month. Average
social security disability pay-
ments to disabled workers will
go from $228 to $242 a month.
Average social security sur-
vivors payments to widowed
mothers or fathers with two
children in their care will go
from $479 to $510 a month.
Social Security pays month-
ly benefits to over 32 million
people. The payments are
funded by social security con-
tributions from employees,
employers and self-employed
people.
Employees and employers
contribute 5.85 percent each of
the first $15,300 of yearly
earnings from jobs covered by
social security. Self-employed
people contribute 7.9 percent.
"Those figures remain un-
changed," Robinson said.
The Social Security Admini-
stration is an agency of the U.
S. Department of Health, Edu-
cation and Welfare.
