Gates is expected to become a candidate before the week is over. INTERESTING RACES Incumbent Cora Sue Robinson and challenger Mildred Jones will meet in a re-match of four years ago, when Robinson won election to the seat vacated by Dessie Lee Parker. Kesley Colbert challenged two term incumbent Joyce Williams in the post of Property Appraiser. Both signed up and paid their qualification fees on opening day. Another crowded field is the three-man race for Sheriff. Ken Murphy will be putting his two terms on the line and challengers Al Harrison of Wewahitchka and J.E. "Eddie" Carnley of Dalkeith will be trying to unseat him. Harrison is a law enforcement veteran, having been a Florida Highway patrolman for sev- eral years. Carnley is an employee of St. Joe Paper Company. The biggest shoot-out is expected to be for County Commission, District 5, where four are already signed up and running and more have expressed intentions to run.

Gant and Shirley Jenkins questioned Gulf Cable TV owner, Robert Newman, at the meeting, as to why they .4. r I_ I 1 TT" couldn't get the service and asked the City Commission if Newman's franchise didn't require him to put the service in. Newman answered the question as to why tlie service wasn't available by saying, "I can give you pa short answer, 'money'. The longer answer explains why the project has been unfeas- able to this point." Newman expressed a willingness, however, to take another look at the project and see if the expansion would pay for itself. Newman pointed out there were only a few homes in the area at his last survey and a requirement that all utilities be placed underground in the subdivision, made it prohibi- tively expensive for his firm to serve Millville. Newman said the expense would be greater since hand trenching would be neces- sary, now, so as not to disturb present utilities already in place. The cable operator also pointed out several permits would be necessary before an installation could be made which would take some time and expense. Jenkins then asked how the company could serve Ward ' idge and not' Milhville, since both areas were about the same size. Newman said his firm is located in Ward Ridge and the installation was a part of his continued permission to operate in the area. "Too, Ward Ridge utilities are served by poles and I could get permission to attach to the poles. It was a relatively inexpensive installation". Newman stated again he would take another look at the Millville area to see if an installation there was now feasible. "I'll have an answer within about a month", he, told Gant and Jenkins. In other business items, thO Commission: -Agreed to hire former city clerk Charles Brock to serve temporarily in the place of Alden Farris who has taken a leave of absence to seek election to public office. -Agreed to send three employees from the Waste- water Treatment Plant to Gainesville to attend a short course being held there. -Heard a report from Bob Simon that the $1 million dredging operation at the plant settling pond. is now complete. Department of Transportation Secre- tary, Paul N. Pappas responded to a resolution filed with DOT this week in a letter to the. Commission, explaining the state agency's position in coming up with bridge priorities in Gulf County. It seems, according to Pappas' letter, the DOT has not abandoned plans to build an new high-rise bridge across the Intracoastal Canal at Highland View. According to Pappas, the DOT has plans to construct the bridge in fiscal 1988-89 unless the priorities are changed in the meantime. The City of Port St. Joe and the Gulf County Commission both petitioned the DOT to abandon plans for a high-rise bridge at White City and build one, instead, at Highland View, on Highway 98, when it was learned DOT had plans for a bridge at White City. Plans of DOT revealed earlier this year, pointed out that a new high-rise span would be placed at Overstreet, with construction to start possibly in the current fiscal year. A similar bridge was scheduled for White City, to begin construction in the following fiscal year. No indication was given for plans to place a new bridge at Highland View until Pappas' letter was received this week. Pappas said plans for a bridge at Highland View had been delayed until the Port St. Joe Port Authority commits itself to a port concept and sets the specifications for the new bridge. Contacting George Tapper, chairman of the Port Authority, it was learned the Coast Guard sets the specifications for such bridges as the one necessary for the Highland View location and the Coast Guard has been working on the specifications for a period of time. Tapper said port plans have been filed with the Coast Guard and the Port Authority-and DOT-are now waiting for their reply in the matter. Pappas' letter indicated that if port questions are settled before the White City project begins, "we can consider moving the Highland View project to an earlier letting date". Pappas said the three planned bridge projects for Gulf County will cost in the neighborhood of $25,000,000. Two local industries signed three year agreements with their operating unions during the past week, with both firms agreeing to modest wage and fringe benefit increases in labor negotia- tions. St. Joe Container Division workers, members of the United Paperworkers, Local 379, agreed on Thursday, after a short period of negotiation to accept a three year agreement from the company. The Container Division contract became effective July 15. An increase in wages and fringe benefits offered by the company, was agreed to by the Union after only a few days of negotiations. A last minute vote of approval on a new three year contract headed off a threatened strike at Basic, Inc., last Wednesday night. Acceptance of the contract by the United Steel Workers of America, Local 14963, agreed to a new work agreement which became effective Thursday, July 12 and runs until July 11, 1987. Workers at the local seawater magnesia plant, received an increase in compensation, with the largest por- tion of the increase coming in fringe benefits, such as increases in health insurance and retirement benefits. ; In addition, workers will receive an across the board increase in wages for the second two years in the contract.

L-- - I v I Editorials and Comments THE STAR THURSDAY, JULY 19, 1984 PAGE TWO Growth Is Coming to Gulf There are several indications that growth is slipping up on us here in Gulf County. We don't have to have people camping out in our backyards or be faced with fighting for a place to sit down, to see the facts which are becoming as plain as the nose on our face; which has been described as being pretty plain, at times. There were three indications in last week's paper, which are indisputable indications that growth is going on all around us, whether we see it or not. These three indicators can't be argued with as being authentic evidence. First, there was the release from Supervisor of Elections, Cora Sue Robinson, that the voter registration is climbing in Gulf County.. Even after a period of purging the lists, in which people who have moved away, or died, or haven't voted for the past two or three elections, have been taken from the rolls. Still, after this purging, Mrs. Robinson says the voter rolls in Gulf County are now larger than ever before. There are now more people registered on the voting rolls-all live, active, present people-than ever before in the County's history. This is indisputable fact that County we are growing in numbers of people. Property values are growing, as the result of improvements being made to property which was already there, according t9 Pro- perty Appraiser, Joyce Williams. What'does this mean? It means that we are in a year of almost stable valuations, so far as comply- ing with the state's "just value" law, so, any increase in values has to come from the fact that people are building homes or business buildings on property they already own. Increasing property values show a growth in construction which also reflects a growth in numbers of people. Another sure sign of growth. The third sign of growth in last week's paper was the announce- ment that the Post Office was extending mail service in the Cape San Blas area. We don't know the criteria for extending such mail service, but we are aware that the number of residents per mile must reach a certain number before the Post Office will offer mail service. Mail service being provided at Cape San Blas, then, tells us that the area has reached this satur- ation point. The area is growing. Just thought you might like to know. The Telephone Call For Ltiout six months I thought my son had a night brace he wore on his mouth. I walked in the other morning and found out it was a telephone receiver. Have you ever seen anyone sleep and talk on the phone? My son can do it! I've often wonder- ed why our phone never rang- now I know. A telephone was a sacred instrument when I was young. That was when there were party-lines and you had to call the operator to get , long distance. It was also the Time when children were not allowed to use the phone for any extended length of time. SThree to five minutes was '.about it for a teenage conver- sation in those days. Teen- agers today have their own phones, answering service and T.V. sets in case the conversation gets boring. Ain't that something, older folks? I walked into my son's room one night and he was, as usual, talking on the phone. He was obviously talking to a girl because he was all smiles and "honey- lipped" but suddenly hushed when I entered the room. He looked so confident and re- laxed, and seemed to be enjoying himself so much, that it reminded me of the horror I experienced the first time I called a girl on the phone. I was neither confi- dent or relaxed, and I guess that's why I hate cocky, confident kids today. The first time I called a girl from my house it took me five days. There was nothing wrong with the phone, but there was a lot wrong with the nerve that connected my brain with my tongue. I couldn't get them both going (Continued on Page 3) They're Off and Running In Florida By the time this week's paper is in print and you are reading it, 'the 1984 political race will officially be open 'in Florida, and the candidates will be rushing for the goal of election, harder than they have already been in the past few weeks. Elections and the coming of qualification day always remind us of a painting we saw once of the opening of the Territory of Okla- homa by the federal government. _ People wanting the newly opened land. were in a stampede toward their goal by every means imagine- able. They were on horses, wagons, bicycles, on foot, all rushing toward an unclaimed spot of land on which to place their mark. Monday, qualification time op- ened and the candidates were off *and running in whatever way they could to reach the goal of being approved by the people as the person who should fill some certain position in the county. The experienced runners knew what' to do and where to stand to begin their races, because they had been there before. 'Those who were novices at politicking, sort of stumbled around and fumbled the ball a little in deciding just what the first step for them should be. However the politicians started -fast or slow-by Friday, noon, they will all be stretched out, seeking success in their particular endeavors. The field will be firmed and the doors slammed shut on the hopefuls who still couldn't make up their mind, even at the last moment. Friday at noon, will make up their mind for them. So, get ready for the onslaught of handshakes, glad handing, back- slapping, baby kissing, greetings from people who haven't spoken to you in years. You are fair game for them. You have from now until November to put up with this semi-annual exercise. When A Coke Was A Coke & A Nickel The Rea BY KESLEY COLBERT Do you remember when a Coke-Cola was a real treat? They were about as scarce as hens teeth around our house when I was a'growing up. A Coke cost a nickel in those days, and was considered a luxury that we couldn't of- ten afford; besides' old "Bet- sy" provided all the milk that l Thing we could drink and it was "better for you son". And it didn't cost nothing except on those extra cold mornings when you were in a hurry to get out of the barn and back to the house, and "Betsy" wasn't in an obliging mood. But every once in a while, my mom would bring each of us a Coke back from the store. Boy howdy, let me tell you something- we didn't gulp it right down and go on about our business. We had drink- ing one of those things down to an art. The secret was to make it last. I'd put my Coke in a special place in the refrigerator so I wouldn't get "my drink" mixed up with my brothers. They'd do the same; and then it was anticipation time. Man, how sweet it was going to be, and so cold. Shoot, sometimes I'd leave "mine" in there five or six minutes before I decided it was cold enough and I couldn't wait any longer... About my favorite way to drink a Coke in those days (if I didn't have any peanuts) was to take an ice pick and jab a small hole through the cap. You take that cap off and your drink would be gone in two minutes- with only an ice pick hole in the top you could sip on that Coke for an hour or so. They only came in small bottles so you really had to plan the way you wanted to drink it. Like I said the key was to make it last. Sometimes we'd all save our Cokes till Saturday night. Hey, listen, have ya'll seen those commercials where they say "Man, it doesn't get any better than this"? Well, those people are wrong 'cause the guy that wrote those things never pulled up a chair just as close as he could get it to that' old stand-up Zenith radio in the (Continued on Page 3) What's Left THE DEMOCRATS ARE meeti- ing out in California this week, with their national convention. Again, this year, I didn't go. Nor, did I get an invitation to go, which is just as well, because, in all likelihood, I would have had to return my regrets as to why I wasn't going to be there. I'm trying, first, to figure out how they describe the frequency with which the Democrats meet in their annual convention. If one meets daily, it's a daily meeting, weekly is a weekly gather- ing, *every other week is semi-month- ly; once a year is annually; once every two years is bi-annually, and so forth. But, what is every four years?. Quadrennially? Considering the other important matters both the political parties take up and consider at their periodic conventions, I'm surprised they have- n't had a convention to determine what one would call a convention which occurs every four years. It's as worthy of discussion as some of the for the Democrats to Decide At the Convention This Week? other matters they consider at those( conventions. LIKE MANY OTHER things, they don't make conventions like they tion and something the nation was waiting for. Rep. Rayburn would bang and bang on the podium with the new hand-carved gavel carved from the sive move on the part of Rep. Rayburn and his mournful, sonorous "Or-dah!" "Or-dah!" "Let's have order in the hall and clear the aisles!" gave color to the convention which nothing else ETAOINSHRDLU By: Wesley R. Ramsey used to, anymore. I remember back when old Representative Sam Ray- burn, of Texas was chairman of the Democratic national convention. He would pick up that huge gavel, explain who made it and where the tree came from which furnished the wood for the gavel and just who presented it to the convention. That was all important informa- wood of a sycamore tree cut in Reginald Farnsworthy's back yard. He would pound and he would pound and the people would keep on doing what they were doing in the first place. Had it not been for the loud speaker system, nobody would have known Rayburn was pounding on the podium, as persistent as he was. But the pounding was an impres- L But, with the passing of Rep. Rayburn went the dignity and pomp of the convention. I REALLY DON'T know why they are even having a convention this year. Why not just call it off and use the money to pay off Jimmy Carter's still-remaining campaign debts which resulted from the last campaign? Or, better yet, put the money in the bank to pay for some of the expenses Walter Mondale is going to incur on his way to getting whipped at the polls? Mondale's getting whipped at the polls isn't an original idea with me. I read where a poll of all women doesn't give Mondale but a 36 percent approval-and that poll came along after Mondale had approved of a lady for his Vice-Presidential running- mate. But, back to the convention. Why are they having one this year? Walter Mondale says he is the "natural" be- cause he has so many delegates pledged to his campaign. Here he sits with enough pledged delegates to guarantee him the nomination and'he has personally hand-picked Represen- tative Geraldine Ferraro as his running mate. What's left for the convention to decide? One thing they can work on is a statement made by Florida's Demo- cratic Chairman, Charles Whitehead of Panama City. Charley has said, "Geraldine Ferraro was selected because of her ability and competen- cy, not because she is a woman". Doesn't that sound like a state- ment a former used car salesman would make? That's about as believ- able as the old time-worn sales pitch, "This car was owned by a little old maid school teacher who only drove it to church on Sunday!" I wonder how a man who used to make his living with such phrases is going to relate to a lady candidate for vice-president? Can't you hear it now: "Geraldine won't hurt the office; she'll only use it when the president is away!" Another hard matter to explain is going to be Walter Mondale himself, trying to explain away having to stay at the office, late, night after night, after night. It could get sticky. First, Mondale has to get elected and from this corner, that isn't going to be all that easy to do. Tides The tide action in St. Joseph's Bay is shown in the tide table below.

THURSDAY, JULY 19, 1984 PAGE THREE The Real Thing (Continued from Page 2) living room on a Saturday night listening to Little Jim- my Dickens singing "Sleep- ing at the Foot of the Bed" LIVE over clear channel 650 WSM's world famous Grand Ole Opry while sipping a Coke out of the small bottle, through a hole he'd jabbed in the cap with an ice pick. My dad always said that old Zenith was so good it would pick up the Grand Ole Opry a week ahead of time. I know it brought in WSM loud and clear. I'd usually start on my Coke about the time Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs kicked off the Mar- tha White sponsored portion of the Grand Ole Opry around 8:00 p.m. Then I'd try to be about half way through sometime during the middle of the Steven's Workclothes show and that way I'd finish at just about the end of the Jefferson Island salt (pure salt) part of the show at 9:30. You don't see much Jefferson Island salt these days. Well, after E. T. or Hank or Faron or whoever closed out the Jefferson Island show at 9:30 it was time for bed (we got to stay up late on Saturday nights) and the trick was to take your last sip just as the 9:30 show ended. Sounds kinda silly doesn't it?- but that's the way back in '55. And then the Coke people messed up. They came out with the King-size bottle, cost a dime. They also went up to six cents on the regular size bottle. Man, we were just barely able to pay the nickel. The drink machine across the street from our church at the Citgo station still would give you a Coke for a nickel, but they taped a box on the front that you placed the penny in when you got a drink. Many a Sunday be- tween Sunday School and church I couldn't get a Coke 'cause all I had was a nickel and nobody would lend me a penny. But the price wasn't the worst of it- the taste of the King size bottle wasn't the same as the small bottle. Still isn't. Today we've got Coke in cans, quarts, plastic liters, etc. Not the same taste as those old small bottle Cokes. I don't even know what a liter is but it sure doesn't sound American to me. In protest I have started drinking Dr. Pepper. I went to a meeting a couple of years ago in Dothan, Alabama and the Coke people had a booth where you could have all the Coke you wanted, anytime you wanted it, free. They were handing it out in small cups with ice. Well, I got in line and when I finally got up to the booth I asked the guy if he had a regular bottle and an ice pick...you see, you've got to be able to recognize the real thing and then ask for it by name.

A tactful plan, but not as easy as I planned. "Wendell, where on earth are you going so dressed up this time, of night?" my mother asked as I walked toward the telephone room. "To make a phone call," I answered, somewhat embar- rassed.. "Oh," was her understand- ing reply. You see, I had put on my very best clothes, brushed my teeth and hair, - and, shied mny shoes. I needed all the confidence I could muster. I carefully dialed Marie's number. It rang about three times and a man answered. "Her father!" I thought as I slammed the receiver down- almost scared me half to death. My heart was literally in my throat! I sat there for about ten minutes trying to build up my courage to dial again, but finally went to bed in despair. This love thing was turning out to be a lot more difficult than I had anticipated.

The next night I went through the same ritual, shower and all. This time, however, Marie answered the phone. "Hello," said her sweet, soft voice, just like I dream- ed it would be. My mouth moved to answer but no words came out. "Hello," she repeated, this time a little louder. "Hello, hello," she said two or three more times before finally hanging up. I went to bed almost in tears. "No backbone, Camp- bell," I thought to myself. The next night I found my voice. "Marie?" I asked. "Yes," she answered. "Do you know who this is?" I probed. "No," she answered. "Are you sure," I inquired further. "Yes," was her positive response. "Good," I replied as I chickened out and hung up the phone. The final night was virtual- ly the same questions except when I asked it she knew who I was, she surprised me and said, "Yes, I do!" with excitement in her voice. "You do?" I exclaimed, my heart in my throat. "Yes," she said excitedly, "you are James Hicks and I really like you!" That statement ended my romance with Marie Letter- less, and since then I have detested talking on the phone!

THURSDAY, JULY 19, 1984 Indian Mound on Peninsula Has 2, 00 I ~- __ At the last meeting of the St. Joseph Historical Society held Saturday afternoon, July 7, at the Corinne Costin- Gibson Library, a number of interesting subjects came up for discussion. President Wayne Childers was in the chair, and others in attend- ance included Miss Maurelle Cumbie, Jesse Stone, Mrs. R. H. Brinson, Mrs. Herman Dean, Mrs. James McNeill, and Mrs. Ralph Swatts, Sr. During this meeting, Jesse Stone presented to the Socie- ty a bag of very interesting Eye Openers By: Dr. " Wesley Grace IS GLAUCOMA INHERITED? Q. If a parent has glaucoma, is it likely that a son or daughter. would have it too? A. Glaucoma itself is not in- * herited; however, the ten- dency to develop the con- dition is greater for those patients with a family his- tory of it. If someone in your family has glau- coma, be sure to tell your optometrist when he is taking your case history. If glaucoma exists in your family, your visual fields and a tonometer test (which measures the pressure in your eyes) should be a part of your complete eye examina- tion regardless of your age. The health of the in- side of your eyes will be checked thoroughly in the ophthalmoscopic part of the examination. Q. Can a young person deve- lop glaucoma? A. Glaucoma can be deve- loped at any age, but it does not often occur in pa- tients under forty. In a younger person, untreat- ed glaucoma can cause permanent damage to the i eye, just as it does in the older patient. Treatment is the same at any age. If you have any reason to suspect that you are deve- loping glaucoma, or have fears about developing the condition because of a family history, call for a complete eye examina- tion.

CARDOF THANKS We would like to thank everyone for their prayers, kindness and the food they gave to us during the loss of our husband and brother, Enoch F. Humphrey. Our special thanks to Rev. and Mrs. Earl Capps, Dr. Imber, Jimmy Pat and Tim- my Whitfield, Oscar D. Redd, the Wewa Ambulance Squad, 'and the nurses of the I.C.U. at Bay Medical. We regret that we could not have a small service on his behalf in Wewa. May God bless each and everyone of you. Hattie Humphrey Don & Martha Kinard d Pottery ment on the peninsula has not been authenticated, but many articles have been found through the years which are definitely of Eng- lish origin, and the society will make every effort to prove that such a settlement did exist and to authenticate the date. Maurelle Cumbie, report- ing on the old cemetery project, said that much work needs to be done within and around the grounds, replac- ing trees and shrubs, fertiliz- ing, etc. She also reported that people had been dump- ing trash just outside the fence behind these sacred grounds. For many years society members have work- ed for the preservation and beautification of the burial place of our forefathers, and it is always a shock to learn that people would desecrate such a place. This is an appeal to the civic pride of the people in and around Port St. Joe to honor and respect this hallowed area, and all other such places- in the county, the state, and the nation. Stern Wheeler In Port The Florida Belle, a beauti- ful, 150-passenger sternwheel vessel, constructed in 1982 on the pattern of a period i sternwheeler, but with the very latest, modern equip- ,', ment and completely Coast Guard ,approved, will work on the Apalachicola, Chatta-. hoochee and Flint Rivers in the near future. Captain Buck Smith, after several reconnaissance trips along the waterways, has decided that, with sufficient " local support from the vari-,: ous communities in the ACF valleys, there is a potential use of the Florida Belle by' serving numerous communi- ties rather than a fixed port of operation. The Florida Belle will be in Port St. Joe for charter July 22, 23 and 24. Passage will be available to Apalachicola with return bus connections. Working with several tour companies, Capt. Smith' plans heritage cruises, which would emphasize the rich history of the rivers and the communities that, in the 1800's, found the rivers their vital transportation link with the Gulf, both for passenger travel and freight. Capt. Smith is contacting Chambers of Commerce and other groups that have festi- vals and other special events, so as to make the Florida Belle available. Capt. Smith says that he wants to make the Florida Belle available in the entire region as an attraction, and another re- source to add to the already- increasing tourism industry.

Port St. Joe lost out in a rout to Lynn Haven, 18-3 in a game w' ;ch was called at the end of the fifth inning by the 10-run rule. Lynn Haven batters clob- bered three Port St. Joe pitchers, getting five homers; and a grand slam by Brian Kilpatrick in the fourth in- ning. Bill Ramsey started for Port St. Joe and before the. slug-fest was over, Patrick Freeman and J. J. Ray also took turns on the mound. Blaine Adams provided the only spark for Port St. Joe,, poling a three run homer to-, score Port St. Joe's only, runs. Port St. Joe's All-Stars were hosts to the Dixie Youth Major League Sub-District Tournament last week. The local team took second place in the tournament, losing to a strong Lynn Haven team by one run after going into extra-innings. Port St. Joe won their opener, with a 4-1 win over Blountstown. Blaine Adams started on the mound for the locals and allowed one run in the four innings he worked. Bill Ramsey came on in relief and hurled the final two innings, holding the Blounts- town team scoreless. Ken Monette paced the offense, going two for three at the plate, driving in two runs. Dale Evensen and Tracy Stansel each drove in a stand and James Hanlon, who served as president of the league for the past two years. KEEP YOUR CHECKING ACCOUNT Blaine Adams pitched a three-hitter against Mid-City of Panama City, going for the complete game for Port St. Joe and picking up a 12-2 win in the third game of the tournament. The win was high-lighted by four homers for Port St. Joe, with Reggie Larry getting a two-run shot in the second inning and a three run blast by Tyrone Hamilton in the fourth. Ad- ams helped his own cause with a solo round-tripper in the sixth. Little Patrick Freeman was the hero of the day, slamming a grand slam homer in the sixth for his first of the entire season. Port St. Joe won second place standing in the tour- nament in the most exciting game of the entire series 'last Thursday night. Lynn Haven scored first, with a run in the third inning. Port St. Joe struck back in the fourth on a homer by Blaine Adams. Port St. Joe took the lead in the fifth inning, pushing across three runs. The lead held until the sixth inning, when Lynn Haven knotted the score. After a scoreless seventh, Matt Dean hit a lead-off homer in the bottom of the eighth inning to win for Lynn Haven. Bill Ramsey went for seven innings before he was forced by the pitching time rule to leave his position. Jim An- derson relieved. Port St. Joe's scoring came on a solo homer by Blaine Adams, a two run single by Bill Ramsey and a run scoring single by Willie Smith.

After a discus- Watch Out for Poisonous Plants BY ROY LEE CARTER County Extension Director ' Summer is a great time to enjoy things like hiking and' camping. But before you go tramping off into beckoning woods, you should familiari- ze yourself with some of the more common poisonous plants. A little preparation could save your days of uncomfortable after effects, resulting from contact with such noxious weeds. Usually, we think of poi- sonous, plants as species found only in the woods. | Actually, they're every- where. I will describe three common poisonous plants- poison ivy, oak and sumac- and tell you where you might find them. My information for this article was provided by Extension Horticulturist 4 Dr. Robert J. Black. Now is a good time to be discussing poisonous plants, because the sap of these leafy enemies is most abundant during the summer. And, it's usually the sap which causes the problems. Poisonous plants can be divided into two /- The House of Represen- tatives completed action on the budget and tax bills for the coming fiscal year. Although I had misgivings about the in- creases in Medicare taxes and. the provisions affecting the ability of communities to issue Industrial Development Bonds, I voted for the measure because it takes steps to reduce the deficit by $60 billion over the next three years and will demonstrate to the American people and the world that the U.S. government is :'serious about reducing ourdeficits and will ultimately have a balanced budget. It should be noted that this bill contains no new taxes for the general public and, for the most part, raises revenue by closing tax loopholes. I am con- vinced that the American public wants Congress to reduce government spending and believe we have taken positive action in that regard. * In other recent action, the House of Representatives has passed the Military Construc- tion Appropriations Act for FY 1985. Included in this important measure are funds totaling $699,000 for construction of a helicopter landing lane at Camp Blanding in Clay County. In past years, Camp Bland- ing has not received the con- sideration for funding which it deserves. I was pleased to note that the Committee gave serious attention to my request for these construction funds. Further, the Committee report which accompanied the bill noted my request for con- sideration of future funding for construction projects at Camp Blanding by stating: "The Com- mittee has been made aware of the need to move forward sion, this matter was tabled until the July meeting. There being no further business, the meeting ad- journed to meet again on July 10, 1984 at 5:30 PM. groups: those which cause skin irritation; and those which cause internal dis- tress, and in rare cases, even death. Many factors influence the poisonous nature of a parti- cular kind of plant. The poison may be dispersed throughout a plant, or it may be localized in a specific plant part such as the roots, berries, or seeds. The nrniLUU5IL US jJU in a1 1a uail soil. Also, reactions vary among people, depending on their health, age, and sensi- tivity to the poison. Now I'll describe three of the most common poisonous plants, those I mentioned earlier- poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac: Poison ivy may have a variety of leaf shapes. But one identifying feature re- mains constant. The leaves always come in threes, with two of them directly opposite each other. White, waxy flowers may be found on smaller branches. These sometimes stay on the plant, even after the leaves have fallen. Poison ivy commonly grows as a vine, climbing P.D.

This supercomputer will be one of very few in the United States and we expect it to be able to tackle large-scale, real-world problems.

How- ever, in open fields, poison ivy may look like a shrub. Poison oak usually has the appearance of a lowgrowing shrub. As the name implies, the slender, upright branches bear leaflets which resemble oak leaves. Poison oak also grows in trees, like poison ivy. Usually, the undersides of the leaves are lighter in color, because they're cover- ed with fine hairs. Poison sumac grows as a woody shrub, or small tree. It never has the vinelike appearance of many other poisonous plants. Poison sumac is often found near swamps, and ranges from five or six feet to as much as 25 feet in height. The leaves are divided into seven to thirteen leaflets that grow in pairs. A single leaflet is found at the end of each stem. 'In the spring, the leaves are bright orange and velvety in texture. Later, in the summer, the upper leaves become dark green and glossy, while the lower leaves turn a paler green. These are Florida's most common poisonous plants. But there are many more that you 'should learn to recognize and avoid. It is especially important to keep, you children away from such dangerous species.
