The Oyster City boys, who had been climbing right on up in the league standings, ,had high hopes of knocking the bark off the Saints a la Tyndall Field, what with their imported Mississippi State players, but the foreign blood didn't phase the St. Joe lads a particle, for HOW THEY STAND Team- W L Pot.

The visiting fans went wild as Apalax'e.iscored one run in the first inning on two singles and' a walk, but their joy was short lived as the Saints came to bat in the last of the fourth to mark up four runs and 'put the game on ice. Bennie Burke, leadoif man, struck out, much to the delight' of the Oyster Citian's,. for wasn't their Mississippi Stater, Rutherford, a humdinging pitcher of the hum- dingst sort? Frank Hannon took a single over thirdM and the slaughter was on. Tommy Mitchell got a two- bagger to right field, Hannon go- ing to third-and then, Belin lofted the first pitche'.l ball over the f'nce for his, i'icst homer and three counters. Bucky Walters hit a line through short, as did Jim McCall, Walters being caught out at home for the second out and' McCall go- ing to third on the .play for Bucky.

But again their ardor 'was dampened as Mitchell got to !first and Belin brought him home with his second circuit hit. The fifth was another big inning for the Saints, with five runs being (Continued on page 5) To Attend Ball Game Mrs. Verna Smith, Mr. and Mrs. J. D.

Jimlmlie Adams did the hurling for the Saints, giving -up seven scattered hits. Hendels was, on the mound for Apalachicola and. turned in a bangup job, giving up six hits and walking four. 'It is hard to un- derstand why the managers of the Apalachicola team import outside pitchers at considerable expense when they have this boy Hendels right on their doorstep. .Apalaohicola made the first run in the third' inning, and up to the seventh frame it looked life the winning run. The first batter up took two bases when Bennie Burke handled the infield' hit anid threw wild to first. The second man was safe on a grounder to To-m Mitchell and Bert Cox let in the. lone run when he threw the ball away in an attempt to catch the runner steal- ing to second., allowing the man on third to romp home., .. It was three, up,.and_ ~yree down for Iboth teamis'up to the seventh. Hannon led? off in that fateful inn- ing, flying out to left field. Mitchell ,was walked and Belin, whom the pitcher endeavored to deliberately walk every time he came to bat, managed to h9t a liner down the third base line for a single. Bucky Walters took two bags on a hard one to left field, driving in Mitch, with Belin stopping at third. Jim McCall hit to the second baseman, being safe at first on the unsuc- ce'ssful play at lome for Belin and going to second on the next pitch, (Continued on page 8) Thomason To Oppose Ace Adams In Ball Game Today The big game of the, season for Blountstown fans will be played at that city this afternoon when the Donalsonville 'semi-pros will seek revenge for an 8-7 defeat handed them by the Blountstown Bucca- neers on June 3. Donal'sonville will call on "Ace" Adams to do the pitching honors, while the Buccaneers have secured the services of "Lefty" Thomason of the Port St. Joe Saints to hurl against the strong Georgia nine. Thomason has built an excellent record as a mnound'sman with the Saints, and with these outstanding pitchers the game should, prove to be an exciting one."

Belin took his four circuit clouts in five times at bat, and on that fifth time was handed a deliberate walk by the pitcher. In addition to the four runs credited him on the four-base hits, he drove in four counters, thus accounting for' eight of the 12 runs made Sunday by the St. Joe team. As one. Apalachicola fan said: "All the team St. Joe needs is Belin and Thomason." , Addition of these tanks ,brings the total to 15 with a combined storage capacity of 986,910 barrels, placing the Port St. Joe terminal up among the largest in the state. --__--'--- - Spend Weelk-end In Georgia Mr. and Mrs. J.

Both men were em- ployed- at the lumber mill. Massey's body was found lying in the road, in front of the Todd home, when Chief of Police Buck Griffin wia.s called to the scene. His head had almost been severed from his body and he apparently 1had died within a few seconds af- ter being slashed with a knife.

Parker, who iwas called in on the case, states that Mrs. Todd told him that one of her sons told her that he heard Todd and Massey in a loud argu- ment in the yard and that s-he left her home. to go to a neighbor's house. From that point on no one knows: exactly what occurred. The body was taken to the Com- forter Puieri T Horife and. services were held 'Wednesday afternoon at 5 o'clock at the graveside in Jehtu cemetery, Wewahitchka, conducted by Rev. W. B.

Nearly 700 Legislative Acts Are Now Effective The last official echo of the 1947 Florida legislature died away Mon- day when nearly 700' of the acts it left behind when it adjourned be- came law without Governor Cald- well's signature.

Most of the 700 new laws applied to purely local affairs of the coun- ties and cities, including several pertaining to Port St. Joe and We- wahitchka, but among them were general laws which: Provide, a state-wid-e closed sea- son on mullet fishing.

Right or Wrong THE STRENGTH OF A COUNTRY e The basic strength of this country lies in its philosophy of life and government-not in its natural resources and its industries and its wealth. These -last, vital as they are, are but the consequence of the first. They are the na- tural development of a system which places maximum freedom for the individual above all other considerations. Other nations have great resources--greater in some particulars than our own. Russia is a case in pdint. But other nations have not be :n able, despite grandiose "five-year plans" and, similar schemes, to put them to full use for the benefit of the people. Super-government, which robs the individual of his freedom, like- wise robs him of his ingenuity and his ambi- tion. The individual is simply the tool of the state. .He is denied much, and often most, of the fruits of his labors. Results are gained by -mass action. -by driving and terrorizing the people. 'But the individual, save for the man in the saddle, never benefits. This country grew great under the consti- tutional idea of a government of limited -powers-a government which maintained tlh' army and navy, the courts and other essential .services. and acted as an arbiter in the eco- -nomic affairs of the country but never as a -competitor or participant. This is the kind, and -the only kind, of government under which the Tights and freedoms of the people can be pre- served, and it must not be undermined here. Keep smiling-and buy U S Savings Bonds. KEEP THE SECRET! A loud chorus of "realists" urges America to "keep the secret." Keep the atomic bomb an American monopoly! Oh, if we only could! There is obviously no sense in disclosing gratuitously the American production secrets. All misrepresentations to the contrary, no reputable American scientist, and no organization of atomic scientists have ever advocated such a "gesture." Why should we do an3) thing to accelerate the Soviet advance towards atomic arma- ments ? But tn fortunately, we cannot delay it. ['hose who live the best knowledge oL out nuclear techllology, and the best appreciation of Russian science and engineering, gicve from three tu fifteen years as the time the Soviet Union 1ill need to acquire its own atomic bombs. Even the longest suggested term is much too short to give us any comfort. Those who preach that we have onty to tighten the secrecy around our atomic labora- tories and plants to make us safe are the worst deceivers of the Atmerican people and traitors to American security.-From the Bul- letin of the Atomic Scientists. PLOWING Good husbandmen go forth to plow with faith in their hearts. Since that epochal day of long ago when man learned he could stir the soil, put in seed, and in due time harvest the grains, plowing has been an act of faith. When spring's miracle has come to earth andi the higher-climbing sun has dried the soil enough, the soil is .made ready for the seeds. Plowing is work, yes, but many a country- man feels a kinship with the forces of-life as he goes back and forth, back and forth, across the field. The brown, moist slices of soil curl from the glistening share and lie like rows of sy.iine't-- rically placed brown ribbons. The sun's warm rays dry the tops of the slices in a few min- utes and small bits of dried earth fill from the crests to the hollows below. Robins and crows come to the field and walk along the furrow, hunting for food. From the brushy edges of the field pheasants fling their' hoarse greetings to the spring day, and partr, Ige drum rolls echo from the pasture swamps. -New York Times.

FLORIDA FRIDAY, JUNE 20, 1947, PAGE FOUR o %Amwpwl4A FRIDAY, JUNE 20, 1947 Legislature's Expense Hits Highest Mark The 1947 legislature cost Florida taxpayers more money than anyI other regular session in history. Figures from the office of the state comptroller show $416,254 al- ready has been spent, and vouchers are on hand for an additional $49,800. Bills for other expenses, such as printing the final day's journal oil both the house and athe senate, special acts and bound vol- umes of -general acts and legisla- tive journals are expected to add about $40,000 more. The legislature first passed a hill appropriating $400,000 fo r ex- penses. A s-pecial act later was passed appropriating $47,880 to give eaeh legislator $6 a day extra for expense-s. Even in the closing days of the session, an additional $75.000 appropriation was voted to cover increased expenses. Governor Caldwell allowed the last appropriation to become law Monday without his approval and estimated tho. total legislative ex- penses would exceed $500,000. The 1945 session, including the 53-day extra session, cost $421,000. The regular 60-day session of 1943 cost $278,606. Besides voting themselves an ad- ditional $6 a day for expenses, the legislators 'also gave attaches in- creases ranging ,from $2 to $4 a day. Costs of printing and supplies also were greater this session than before. A proposed! constitutional amend- ment increasing the salaryy of the legislators from $6 to $10 a day, authorizing- 'subsistence and four round trips a 'session between-their homes and the capital will be sub- mitted, to the voters in the 1948 general election.
