County Approves Road Requests The Gulf County Commission met in special session last Friday evening to lay out their secondary road fund requests for the 1963-64 fiscal year. The County .Board had previously met with the Cities of Port St. Joe and Wewahitchka and discussed their requests for paving from the state funds. The County will have some $185,- 000 to spend on secondary work in Gulf County during the next fiscal year beginning July 1. The county then drew up resolu tions requesting the following pav- ing to be accomplished in Gulf County next year: PRIORITY ONE New Paving In Wewahitchka: River Road from Second Street to 7th Street, with five foot concrete sidewalk on South side. Pine Street from SR 71 to 2nd Street. In Port St. Joe: Avenue E trom Hodrick to Battle Street. Avenue B from Main to Battle Street. Mar- vin Avenue from 16th Street to 20th Street. Robbins Avenue from Avenue A to Kennedy Street. In White City: Horse Shoe Circle at Baptist Church. These above items were ap- proved for the current 192-63 budget and are due to be let next month. The entire program is to be let for bids in one unit. Trou- ble with right of way in Wewa hitchka and the changing of a drain ditch in Port St. Joe has held up their letting. Since in all likelihood these items will have money paid for their construc- tion until after July 1, the 1962- 63 funds have been carried over to next year, along with the pro- jects this current money was to finance. PRIORITY 2 Resurfacing In Port St. Joe: Williams Avenue from 1st Street to 5th Street; Sec- ond Street from Long Avenue to) Monument Avenue; Third Street from Monument Avenue to Wood- ward Avenue; McClellan Avenue; Woodward Avenue from 5th Street to 10th Street; Marvin Avenue from 10th Street to 16th Street; Eighth Street from Woodward Avenue to Bay County Requests Joint Land Fill Operations In The Beaches Vicinity Gulf County was formally re- quested by the Bay County Com- mission to join in with that county in a garbage land-fill program for the Beaches at their meeting Tues- day morning. John Pitts, County Commissioner and Ansel Messer, Mosquito Control Supervisor, both of Bay County appeared before the Board requesting the cooperative effort. The area to be served would be from St. Joe Beach to Tyndall Air Force Base. The proposed land-fill area would be in Bay County near .he Overstreet road. The Bay County delegation ask- ed Gulf to dig the original hole with their dragline and Bay Coun- ty would then service the area. The matter was taken under ad- visement by the County Board. Emmett Daniell, Gulf County Pest Control Supervisor told the Board that a new land-fill area had been decided upon to take the place of the Highland View land-fill. The new area is located on the Industrial Road just North of Mi- chigan Chemical Corporation. Approval of the new area was given by the County Board, but approval of the area must now be given by the State Board of Health before the move can be made. Jail Discussion Sheriff Parker reported that Garrison Avenue; 15th Street from Long Avenue to Monument Avenue; First Street from Oil Dock to Monument Ave- nue;14th Street from Long Avenue to Monument Avenue; 16th Street from Long Avenue to Woodward Avenue; Palm Boulevard from 16th to 14th Streets; 10th Street from Palm Boulevard to Monument; and Ninth Street from Monument to Woodward Avenue. All of these streets appear in the order in which they will be con sidered. something was going to have to be done about the Gulf County jail. He stated that the facility is about to be condemned. Trouble in the jail lies in bad plumbing, improper bathing facili- ties, rusting steel work and other items. Considerable discussion was held on whether or not to try and re- novate the present jail or to build a new jail. Discussion will be held at the next regular night meeting of the Board (next Tuesday). To Pave Roads The Board moved to call for bids for 1500 barrels of cement Tues- day, night to pave several streets in White City and one street in Oak Grove, with their soil-cement method of paving. Some 1200 barrels of the cem- ent will be used in White City with the remainder used in Oak Grove. The Board also agreed to call for bids for a self-propelled roller to use in their soil-cement paving activities. There is no money in this year's budget for this item, but it was discussed in reference to making payment in next year's budget. Estimated cost of the machine was in the -neighborhood of $6,000 to $8,000. Mother of H. C. Brown Dies In Orlando Mrs. Flora A. Brown, age 83 of Orlando passed away Tuesday of this week.

RED CROSS DRIVE UNDERWAY Philip Chatham, Fund Campaign Chairman of the Gulf County Red Cross Chapter, announced that this week Gulf County joins in a na- tionwide campaign for members and funds. The success of this campaign is essential to the con- tinued health and welfare of mil- lions of persons in America and around the world. "This year The American Red Cross and some 90 sister societies mark the centenary of the world- wide Red Cross movement. During the fund and membership cam- paign, American Red Cross Chap- ters will offer Americans the op- portunity to become a part of the century-old tradition of mercy", Mr. Chatham said. In the past 100 years, the Red Cross on a field of white has be- come one of the most widely known and respected symbols of hope for the hopeless and help for the help- less. To carry on its share of this tra- dition of mercy, The American Red Cross Chapter relies on the voluntary fund contributions of the people. This year the Chapter's goal is to enlist every home and business establishment as mem- bers of the American Red Cross for 1963. Mr. Chatham says that the campaign aim is for a Red Cross membership sticker on 100% of our buildings in Gulf County. These funds, backed up by the freely given time and talent of trained volunteers, enable the Chapter to help: Solve the personal and family problems of American servicemen and their dependents, through friendly counsel and guidance and emergency com- munications and financial aid; Ease the suffering of disas- ter victims with food, shelter, clothing, medical and nursing care, and with aid in returning to normal living; Restore the health of the sick and injured with whole blood and its lifesaving compo- nents-gamma globulin, serum albumin and fibrinogen; Keep American families safe by teaching courses in home nursing, first aid, water safety, swimming and lifesaving. Mr. Chatham announced The Gulf County Chapter aims to com- plete its local campaign March 18, and asks for every citizen's coop- eration in this effort. Chairmen for various divisions are as follows: Port St. Joe Business, Dave May. Wewahitchka Business, Kenneth Whitfield. Port St. Joe Residential, Rev. Harry L. Babbit and Fead Ether- idge.

The charges were: Insubordination, Dereliction o f Duty and using profane language at school athletic events. Several people, including teach- ers at the high school testified at the hearing that the Coach had us- ed the profane language and of- fered the opinion that this use should be curtailed as not befitting a teacher and not acceptable in school functions. A number of people, mostly for- mer students of Craig, testified in the Coach's behalf. They admitted to the bad language but all de- nied that they had been personally cursed by the Coach, as had been charged. For the most part, those speaking in behalf of the Coach pointed to his work among the youth of the school, his intense concern with the welfare of all children of the school, regardless of whether they were on the athletic teams or not, and regardless of age. Several of those testifying stated that Craig had been instrumental in seeing that they stayed out of trouble and went ahead to finish their educa- tion. After the testimony had been given, Bowdoin then offered his charges again and gave several spe. cific instances backing up each of his charges. Craig then spoke for some 45, minutes in his own behalf stating that most of the charges were pro- ducts of strained relations with the principal and, for the most part, were products of agitation rather than intent. Craig denied that he had allowed his classes to go unsupervised or that he had ever been insubordinate to the Principal. "I carried out his direc- tives, even though in several in- stances I thought they were un- fair." Craig admitted that he had used unbecoming language at athletic contests "in the heat of battle." "I know it is wrong, and I am over- coming the habit and will strive more to do in time to come", the Coach said. Craig ended his defense by stat- ing, emotionally, that "If you can find one boy I have ever taught that would say he wouldn't want me to teach his boy, I will walk off now and never come back". Closed Session The hearings, which had begun at 10:00 a.m. recessed at 2:15 p.m. for lunch. After lunch the board went into closed session with Bow doin and Craig to discuss the testi- mony and decide on proper action. After studying the problem for another hour, the Board agreed to remove Craig's continuing contract placing him on a year to year ba- sis. The Board also admonished the two to try to straighten out their differences and continue with a harmonious operation. Monday of this week, the entire faculty met at the high school and after airing the situation among themselves, agreed to have a har- monious operation and cooperate with each other in all phases of the school's function. -K Dixie Youth Baseball Officials Will Meet There will be a meeting of the sponsors, officers and managers of the Dixie Youth Baseball, Inc., to- morrow at the St. Joe Paper Com- pany main office building confer- ence room. The meeting will begin at 4:30 p.m. and all interested parties are invited to attend. ___ THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. THURSDAY, MARCH 14, 1963 St. James Women's Auxiliary To Hear Miami Social Worker Among Latins Mrs. Carmen Ibanez, social work- er for the Episcopal Latin-Ameri- can center in Miami, will speak to the Woman's Auxiliary of St. Jimes Church on Tuesday, March 19, at 2:30 p.m. at St. James Episcopal Church. Mrs. Ibanez is a Cuban who came to this country about 16 years ago. She is married and has two chil- dren. When the Cubans began coming to Miami, Mrs. Ibanez made her own home a center where she tcojk cai e of a great number of refug- ees. She also worked closely with her parish in organizing a program for Cuban refugees. When the Dio- cese of South Florida opened the Episcopal Latin-American Center, Mrs. Ibanez was already so involved that she was the most natural per- son to take over as the social v oik- er for the center. She has become one of the best known women in Miami among the refugees because of her great understanding of the needs of her people and her will- ingness to deal with each individ- ual's problem. Mrs. Ibanez is prob- ably more intimately acquainted than any other person in this coun- try with the whole refugee pro- gram and the work of the Episco- pal Church through the Episcopal Latin-American center in Miami. Mrs. Roy Gibson, Jr., president of St. James Woman's Auxiliary, invites all persons interested in the Cuban refugee work to hear Mrs. Ibanez. Coffee and cookies will be served following the talk in the Parish House. Week End Guests Miss Betty Joyce Cook and Miss Ruthie Kenzie of Pensacola were the week end guests of Miss Lila Dockery.

The business period was called to order by the president, Mis. Gladys Brown. The roll was called with everyone giving their favor- ite color. The minutes of the pre- vious meeting were read and the treasurer's report was given. Both reports were approved by the group. All various committee chair- men were presented. It was decided during the business meeting that the members would sell hot dogs and drinks during the band festi- val on April 6. Following the business, a social hour followed.

Get Cars Ready For Warm Weather TALLAHASSEE Now is the time to get your car ready for warm weather driving to minimize the chances of a highway mishap, says the Florida Highway Patrol. Although Floridians have exper- ienced an unusually cold winter, the patrol said that "spring and the increase of automobiles on our highways are both just around the corner." Warmer days will mean an extra number of week-end pleasure seek.- ers on the highways of the state and those cars will add to the con- fusion on roads that are already over-taxed with traffic. "One of the safest things to do right now," declares the Patrol, "is to get your automobile in first class running condition for the spring days ahead so that you can enjoy a full measure of fun in- stead of the unpleasantness of an unnecessary breakdown. "Thousands of people who have been holed up at home during the winter will get the desire to hit the pleasure trails when it warms up and they should see their favor- ite mechanic now and let him check over their automobile to see if it is really ready for the road," the Patrol said. A few minor corrections now of m any mechanical defects that may have developed during the winter months can make your automobile much safer for the road and save possible injury or death. "The year 1963, so far, has been a lot less deadly than the first two months of 1962 Let's tryI and keep it that way," said the Pa- trol. ---------- Sixth Grade Completes Art 'Project Right in step with Children's Art Month-which is March-pu- pils in Billy Barlow's Sixth Grade, Port St. Joe Elementary School, have completed an art project which involved several weeks work in paper-mache.

Danny Maddox and Ruel Whitehurst shot 453s to pace Vitro. Daryl Collier's 508 was backed up by Bill Banks at 468 and Bill Whaley at 465 to lead Paper Mill over Electric Meter. Sonny Counts at 459 was the best Electric Meter had to offer. The Box Plant had blood in their eyes for Laboratory. Yank Zim- merman went ape with a 569, his high for the year, to set the pace. VYank was assisted by Big John R,-own's 489, Lee Taylor's 465 and Goober Dunlap's 427. Marvin Bear- den showed signs of greatness as he turned in a 360. Tom Thornton, one of the better bowlers in the league, put three good games together to lead the Laboratory. Beyond Tom, there wasn't much bowling going on for the chemists. Glidden had to get real sorry to out-sorry the Pulp Mill. This they did, as they shot a 2018 series. Wayne Smith had the worst night of his career as did Winton Ferrell for Glidden. Pulp Mill tried real hard to give the games away as they had three men under 400. La- mar Moore's 485 was the best they had to offer. Leo Shealy was a good bit of help with his 416.

But, as it turned out. the three Michigan bowlers could only take one game. But they were close all the way. Ruel Whitehurst led the Stevedores with 502 fol- lowed by Clyde Whitehead's 479. Grady Dean had 497 and Frank Dennis had 421 to lead Michigan. 'Costin's kept their head above water for the first time in eight weeks and edged out a split with Basil's. This is the first time in eight weeks Costin's had done bet- ter than win one game. Two of Costin's shotguns got their plugs out, but the rest of the team still seems to have trouble with new balls. Jake and Waring rolled 562 and 528' to lead Costin's. Tom Thornton rolled 504 to again lead Basil's followed by Sam's 484. Roche's pulled out of their nose- dive by soundly trouncing Florida National Bank for three points. Wayne Smith led Roche's with 573 followed by Strobel's 480.

Williams stated that he was vi- tally interested in upgrading tea- cher salaries in the state.

Williams said that he was in- terested in improving Gulf County's port facilities. He said that Gulf has more mileage of water shipping lanes than any other county in the state and that he wanted to see the deep water port here commensui- ate with water traffic through the county. "We have everything to of- fer industry except a deep water port", the Representative said, "and I will promise to do all I can to provide this much needed facili- ty'. Williams quipped, "I have very little experience in the Legislature but I have a lot of experience in running-having sought the office five times."

And if ever a cause had a conquering hero, fire prevention has just that, with Smokey. Children cheer him-and listen to his admonitions against shame- ful forest fire. In fact everybody seems to like Smokey, a bear with a message. When the Florida Forest Fire Prevention Committee met in Tal- lahassee recently, Smokey Bear got quite a vote of confidence. The committee in special action con- firmed its belief in the effective- ness of the famous Bear as a means of teaching forest conserva- tion. Although the Florida Forest Ser- vice has several Smokey bear cos- tumes, which are used frequently, a motion was passed recommend- ing that the committees purchase additional Smokey Bear suits. This fall-if committeemen have their way-Smokey will make his appearance at many high school and college football games, as us- ual passing out fire prevention THURSDAY, MARCH 14, 1963 nal Symbol Of Forest popular Chap pamphlets or waving to thousands of new admirers and old friends. Any citizen, especially if he has a bear-like profile, may find him- self dragooned by his County For- est Fire Prevention Committee in- to borrowing a 30-pound Smokey Bear costume and on public occa- sions playing the part of the Lov- able Bear who Hates Forest Fires. With a little practice, previous actors report, anybody can learn to growl like Smokey. Strange thing about the famous bear, his fame preceded his actual existence by nearly 10 years. During World War II a symbol for' national forest fire prevention was needed. Could the emotional appeal of an animal be combined with the ruggedness of a firefigh- ter? A cover artist for a national mag- azine then drew a small fat bear, wearing a ranger hat and dumping water on a fire. The name came easy, and "Smokey" hasn't stop- ped since-fighting forest fires, or teaching the waste and tragedy of forest fire. Actually following a bad blaze in 1950, forest rangers found a small scorched black bear cub. They rais- ed him and dubbed him Smokey. This is the bear, now 13 years old, which has an honored stall at the Washington, D. C. zoo. He contin- ues to attract thousands. Since the Smokey idea was start- ed, forest fires nationally and in Florida have been reduced as much as 250 per cent! Smokey didn't do it all, but he sure helped. And as his marching song would have it, "He can find a fire-before it starts to flame-that's why they call him Smokey, that was how he got his name."

Records Assure Fast SS Payments Social Security claims can be paid faster if certain records are presented when the claim is filed, John V. Carey, District Manager of the Panama City Social Security Office, said today. The records needed depend on the individual case, but certain proofs are need- ed in all Social Security claims. The individual, age 62 or age 65, who is filing a retirement claim should bring an old record of his age and a record of his 1962 earn- ings, Carey added. An original birth certificate is the best proof of age, but, because most people e in this area do not have original - birth certificates, many other old s records may be used to establish - age. Old insurance policies, fam- - ily Bibles, voter registrations and the like, may be used to establish e, If you're unable to "sight" a straight row, use stakes, string and a yardstick. Stretch the cord be- tween two stakes. While the cord is in place, use a hot handle to make the furrows for large seeds. Planting depth is important. In moist soil, cover small Iseed such as mustard less than one-half inch deep. Cover medium-sized seed such as radishes no more than three-quarters inch deep, and cov- er large seed such as beans from one to two inches deep. Prior to planting, treat seed to prevent decay and other ailments. It takes only a couple of minutes to treat a packet of seeds. All you do is tear off a corner of the packet, toss in a small pinch of seed pro- tectant such as Spergon, Arasan or Semesan and mix the chemical with the seeds by shaking the pack- et.
