the Oak Grove Water and
Sewer system drawing to a
close, the County Commission
wantsItd get with City officials ;,
of Port St. Joe and come up
with a final agreement for
Furnishing treated water and
handling sewage collected
from the community in the
new system. The City has.
agreed to provide these ser-
vices at a fee to drastically i
reduce the cost of installing
the services in the 135 family,
community., The distribution
and collection system is being
installed and financed by a
50-50 federal grant and loan.
All the County Commission- :
ers with the exception of
Commissioner Leo Kennedy
Expressed themselves Tues-
day at the Board's meeting as
feeling the City has made a
fair offer for the services they
are to provide. Kennedy feels
the charge is "way too"high".
The City has agreed-to furnish
the water and collect and.treat
the sewage, as well as main-
tain the system, read the
meters and collect the bills,
handling all the bookkeeping.
for a flat fee'of $8.50 per
customer; plus 'a charge for
water and sewage at the same
rate as City customers over-
the minimum water bill.
The County has long since
agreed to the billing charge,
but Kennedy now says the
charge is too high. He wants it
lowered.
Commission' Chairman'
James Gortman is one of the
majority on the Board who
feels the charge is reasonable
but still wants to meet with the


an understanding as tp just
exactly what the City will
-furnish fn its charge and just
what is expected of the county.
In calling for the special'
meeting Gortman stated, "In
previous deals we have had.


they are talking about."
The City and County repre-
sentatives will meet Friday
afternoon at 6:00 pim., to
inform both sides just what
the'other is expecting in the
deal.


"City has their game plan prepared.

We walk in cold and don't know

what we are doing".
Gortman


with the City of Port St. Joe,
the City has arrived with their
game plan prepared. We
walked in cold and didn't know
what we were doing. This
time, I want us to do a little
preparation before we put our
name on the line."
;, In order to do this, Gortman.
decided to appoint a team
consisting of Commissioners
Billy Branch, Everette Owens
and Financial Officer Jerry
,Gates to meet with a commit-
tee from the City to get the
City's proposal first hand.
"Then I want this committee
to come back and report to the
Commission as a whole before
we get into a contract-signing
session".,, Gortman _said.
'That way, we will know what


'In addition to furnishing
water, sewage' treatment,
maintenance, and record
keeping for the system, the
City of Port St. Joe also
purchased and' 'installed the
master meter which meters
water flowing from the City to
Oak Grove, saving the system
some $8,000 on their original
installation costs.
The County is' using this
savings to expand the services
to a new subdivision at the
edge of Oak Grove, being
developed by David and
Michael Roche. This area,
containing 16 building lots,
wasn't figured in the original
plan for Oak Grove. The
Roche brothers say the pro-
perty will be developed im-


sewer is installed.
CREDIT UNION
Bud Poucher, development
director for the City of Wewa-
hitchka put a proposal on the
table at Tuesday's meeting
that the County allow its em-
Sployeesto join withemployees
of the City of Wewahitchka in
forming a federal credit union.
The county employees have
been wanting a credit union
for some time, but didn't 'have
the membership among them-
selves to form one and could
find no existing organization
which would or could accept
the county employees as
members.
Poucher said that with the
County and the City of Wewa-
hitchka joining together, they
would have approximately 100


in.-


County Attorney WillianJ..
Rish asked Poucher if it didn't
take at least 200 members: in
order to form a credit union.
Poucher said a charter cold
be filed listing the potenffal
of 200 people. "We have the
potential, but we don't have
but about half this number at
the present time", Poucher
Said.
The developer suggested
that the charter could be
written in order to allow small
businesses or manufacturers
to participate in the uhlon if
they wanted to do so.
With their people already
wanting to get into such an
organization, the County Com-
mission agreed to look into the
matter and see if it wouldide

Man Charged In Two-Car Accident


Last Week In St. Joe Beach Area


S Two men were injured and
another, Quincy Limber, char-
ged with failure to have his
vehicle under control in an
accident last Wednesday af-
S ternoon.
The accident occurred on
Highway 98 near the Canal
Street intersection on St. Joe
Beach, according to Florida
Highway Patrol Trooper Bill


Godwin.
According to Trooper God-
win, Limber, of Apalachicola,
was travelling east on High-
way 98, following a car pre-
paring to make a turn into
Canal Street. Trooper God-
win's investigation showed
that Limber failed to slow
down in time and had to brake
quickly to avoid hitting the car


in front of him. When he
braked, his compact car skid-
ded sideways into the path of
an approaching car.
Richard E. Scully of Tyhdall
Air Force' Base was driving
the compact car headed west
on Highway 98. The impact of
his car with the Limber auto
knocked the approaching car
backwards for 15 feet. The


Limber vehicle came to rest
on the westbound shoulder of
the highway.
Gulf County Volunteer am-
bulance took Scully to Tyndall
Air Force Base hospital for
treatment anrl brought Lim-
ber to a Panama City hospital.
Both cars were severely
damaged by the crash.

Finishing

Touches
Workmen of Gulf Asphalt
were back in town this peat
week putting the final finished
cap on the four streets being
resurfaced under the State
Secondary Road Program.
The streets will be finished
this week if weather doesn't
prevent it.
The paving was started
nearly two months ago, but
delays in putting on the final
surface has kept caution signs
up in the City for some time.
These paving projects are
probably the last Secondary
work the City will receive as
the program is being aban-
doned after nearly 30 years of
improving the state's second-
ary roads.

Everette Owens in a short ceremony. Serving


This week marks the first full week following

something can start happening again and end the

All that is left is the Super Bowl, and even
that will be over by Sunday week.
We're glad to see things get back to normal
here at The Star, since such activities as we have
witnessed during the past two to three weeks do

ETAOIN SHRDLU

By WESLEY R. RAMSEY


.,'- ''


iust a matter of getting the facts straight.
During holidays, news stories are almost
non-existent. We have had it fairly easy to get
together a newsy front page for the past two or
three weeks, since it seems each week there has
been a good story breaking which gave us
something to interest our readers with. The
inside pages have been something else. We try to
put at least one good local news story on each
page and we haven't always been able to do that
for the past couple of weeks.
Another victim of the holiday weeks is this
page. Coming up with a subject to write about
each and every week gets to be agony for us at
times. Some writers seem to be able to sit down
to the task of getting out a column or editorial
and the words will just flow like a stream rushing
down to the ocean. Not here. Our words seem to
be trying to run uphill ... when they will run at
all.

Take this week foi ':nstane't here was
nothing which would come to mind which would
make a good column of local interest.
There was the Mayor's suggestion that the
City try to purchase property for an industrial
park. but that's still in the suggestion and
thinking stage and really can't be developed into
a discussion as yet, except to speculate on what
each individual feels would be a good move for
the City to make. This one will take a little more
thinking before we start anything in print about
this subject.
There was the fact that Pete Miller, Roy
Gibson, George Tapper, Joe Hendrix and Bob
King are going to the Super Bowl in New
Orleans. They didn't want their wives to know
where they were going, so we can't write about
that. It would get them in trouble at home.
The usual warm today and cold tomorrow
Florida winter is upon us and keeping the
hospital full with sick people, but who likes to be
reminded there is a lot of sickness around.
I heard the other day that Dr. Wayne
Hendrix has had a by-pass operation in an
Atlanta hospital, but I don't know enough about
that at this time to write about that. We did hear
that he was doing well.
The paper mill is back at work after
probably its shortest Christmas holiday shut-'
down in the past 10 years, but nobody mentions
that for fear of bringing down a hex which will
cause it to close down for lack of orders in a short
while.

The only thing we can do is look at the
headlines on the daily newspapers and give you a
few quips about what has happened during the
past week.
I see where President Carter pledged to
protect Europe during his little trip last week.
After reading of some of the editorial comments
about his trip and the things which weie said and
left unsaid, I can't imagine why he should offer
to defend the Continent.
Then there was the three-part series in the
Tallahassee Democrat about Governor Askew
and his past seven years as Governor. The
article dredged up all the promises made by the
Governor to cut the state budget and number of
personnel on the payroll. Both jumped dramati-
cally. The article went on to point out that one of
Askew's biggest drawbacks was that he wasn't
one of the boys. Neither is Charo, but she seems
to attract friends rather than enemies.
Senator Howard Baker let the other shoe
drop. then caught it. before it hit the floor in
Panama last week. He said the canal treaty can't
pass the Senate if it takes his endorsement to do
so. Then he went on to say he might be able to
support the treaties if certain language was
spelled out in the documents.,-So, finally, 'the
Senator clears the air. He is definitely against
the treaties .. unless he decides he is in favor.

FIRE DEPARTMENT
The County may have an-
other active fire department
in the near future.
A delegation from St. Joe
Beach headed by E. R. Wil-
liams and Bo Boyette, ap-
peared before the Commission
.Tuesday asking for their help.
in getting,.tarted. Principally, ,
what the men wanted was* to.l
be able to use the clout of the '-
County Board with the Fores-
try Service to get a surplus
pumper, tank truck ,or any.
equipment they might use to'.
get into the fire fighting"
business.
The representatives; said
they had a source of water
pledged and said they needed
a pump of some sort to get the'
water out of a well and into a,
truck,or tank.
After making their pitch,
Williams then said, "What we
want mostly is a word from
you about what we should do
next in getting started. We feel


we have done about all we can
do without some official san-
tion or help".
Commissioner Leo Kennedy
made a motion, unanimously.
approved by the Commission
that the County make an
official request to the Forestry
Service to furnish any surplus
equipment which might be
available for the new fire
department. He also'suggest-


ed that the County try to find a
pump needed by the Depart-
ment to fill its trucks and
tanks with water.
At the present time, St. Joe
Beach is serviced by fire
protection from the Pbrt St.
Joe Fire Department under
the St. Joseph Fire Control
District agreement. In the
agreement, property owners
south of Cypress Creek be-


tween the Bay and Franklin Joe is paid an average of
county lines are taxed for fire $4,000 a year for the fire
service and the City of Port St. protection service.

Plenty of Time Allowed fo



ood Stamp Eligibility Re
' t .ap..- :, :.-' ,


SThe U. S.- Department of
'Agriculture (USDA) -is
making sure people using food
"stamps are given enough time
.to renew their eligibility
before it runs out, Assistant
.Secretary Carol Tucker Fore-
man said.
SAssistant Secretary Fore-
man said new USDA rules will
require local welfare agencies
S.to give people using food
-stamps advance written
notice that their eligibility is
rending. These- notices must -
Sarrive in time fr people to 4e-
: {.apply for-their s'am ps without
an interruption in benefits, she
said.'
The assistant secretary said
the department is issuing
these rules to settle a nation-
wide class action lawsuit,
Basel v. Butz, which- chal-
lenged USDA's food stamp
re-certification procedures'.


Ms. 'Foreman said the new
rules will make the re-certifi-
cation process fairer by re-
quiring state and local
agencies to take more respon-
sibility for keeping food stamp
users informed about the
status of their eligibility.
When a household is ap-
proved for food stamps,
Assistant Secretary Foreman
explained, it is certified fora
Specified length of time, and
must re-apply when this certi-
Sfication-period.ends;.Periodic-.
re-certification is necessary.
t shk said. because.it gves local
agencies an opportunity to
review changes in family
income or resources.
Under the old rules, house-
holds were told at the time of
application when. their 'eligi-
bility would expire, and no
further notice was given.
Basel v. Butz was filed in


October 1974 in U: S. District.
Court for the District of
Columbia. The District Court
ruled in USDA's favor, but the
U. S. Court of Appeals
reversed the lower court early
in 1977. On May 13, USDA
agreed to settle.the case by-
issuing new regulations.
To give interested parties a
chance to comment, the
department published pro-
posed rules on June 3. USDA
received 63 comments on the
proposal...39 from staie.._ad
local welfare agencies and the
rest from legal:, aid groups,
interest groups, and interest-
ed individuals.
The proposed rules would
have allowed people who
appeal food stamp cutbacks or
cutoffs to get full benefits
pending a hearing decision.
But,.because of a conflict with
the recently-enacted :Food
Stamp Act of 1977, this provi-
sion was dropped from final
regulations.
Under the final rules, local
agencies must notify house-
holds in writing between 30
and 45 days before their
certification periods end.
Expiration notices will tell
households they must re-apply
for food stamps by a certain
date to continue receiving
their benefits without inter-
ruption. People who are certi-
fied for one month, or less will
be given .their expiration
notice when they apply..
Notices must be mailed
early enough sp households
have at least '15 days to.


respond. Households, who
meet the re-application dead-
line will have to be told by the
end of that month whether
they will be re-certified, will
have their food stamp benefits
cut back, or will be. dropped
from the program.
Recertified households must
be able to buy their .food
stamps without interruption.
for most, this means getting'
ah Authorization to Purchase
food stamps (ATP) card by
the first of the next month.
People ,who .miss their r-
application deadline without

Treasures


Seen By


Rotary

The Port St. Joe Rotary
Club didn't have to go to New
Orleans to see the treasures of
King Tutankhamun. The awe-
some sight was brought to the
Rotary Club and was shown to
them following their regular
dinner meeting at the Motel
last Thursday,
Rotarian Bill Lyles, anxious
to show off some of the
services of the local library.
borrowed the film. the narra-
tion. the projector and tape
player from the library to
show the slide program to the
club. Lyles pointed out that
anyone could use these .and
many other services provided
Sby the library at no cost.
S The treasures were discov-
r ered by two English archeolo-
gists in 1922 after an eight
year search.
s King Tutankhamun reigned
!300 years before Christ and
w as buried with a treasure of
Swearing apparel, jewelry, ar-
tifacts, urns, vases, utensils.
games and other valuable
objects such as had never
been found before.
Buried along with the young
king were several replicas of
the dead king done in ivory,
gold and, precious jewels. A
full death mask of the king
was found in the tomb made of
pure gold and thought to be a
perfect likeness of the dead
Sruler."'

however. I DID make the

agement Act as to public
meetings now being held to
receive public comments and
recommendations. Commis-
sioner Branch reported that
he attended one of these
meetings and he urged other
Commissioners to attend the
meeting tonight in Panama
City. Commissioner, Kennedy
said he. would attend.
Commissioner Branch said
that some of the senior citi-
zens of Wewahitchka are re-
questing the County Service
Officer to go to Wewahitchka
at least once each week to.
assist them in their service
connected problems. The
Chairman. reported that the

D. E. Johnson of Overstreet

accept this offer. .
Commissioner Branch re-
quested the Attorney tolook
into the matter of having a
study made to determine the
best possible .method, of
supplying water to Beacon;
Hill and St. Joe'Beach.
Commissioner Branch dis-
cussed a request from the U.
S.. Corps of Engineers for
some additional work on the
retaining dikes of the Gulf
County Canal. It was deter-
mined that the Road Depart-
ment now has at least two
years of emergency type road,
bridge, and culvert work and
that all of this planned work is
more important to the citizens
of Gulf County than the work
requested by the U. S. Corps of
Engineers. The Chairman
instructed- the Road Superin-.
tendent to inform the En-
gineers that it would be at
least two years before their
request can be included in the
County work program.

structed firebreak road just

cussed the change in time for

Mosquito Control employees
and asked why this change
was, made. Commissioner
Branch said that the Board
had heretofore voted that
these employees' ten hour
working day be during the
.daylight hours and that the
change was made according
to this decision. Commissioner
Kennedy made a motion that
these employees observe the
automatic .time change. No
second. Commissioner Branch
then moved that the starting
time for these employees be
7:00 a.m., EST the year
around. No second.
Commissioner Kennedy
said h.e is receiving com-
plaints about the Overstreet
streets, being too narrow for
two cars to pass and that this
condition is caused by the
ditch maintenance operations.
C. E. Daniell informed the
Board thai it is time to appoint
the Library Board for 1978.
The Chairman' said he will
attend to this at the next
. meeting. :
The Chairman discussed the
need for a second'ambulance

reported that the communi-
cations system in the Wewa
Ambulance has never worked
satisfactorily. The Board

onded by Commissioner

carried, that the Wewahitchka
Ambulance place an order for

bulance Reporting System.

nounced by the Director of the

torney was instructed to set up

ton on this matter.

Lake Erie during the War of
1812. She will be homeported'
