The 12 jurors and other prospects were all questioned by the attorneys in the judge's ,&chamber in the jury selection '"process. The selection took so long due to the fact that so many of the jurors knew Mayhann and the prosecution and defense went through a host of prospective jurors Hutto Is Coming for Visit U.S. Congressman Earl Hutto will be in Port St. Joe next Tuesday, visiting with his constituents. Hutto will be in the Commission meeting room in the courthouse at 6:30 p.m., and continuing his visit until around 7:00 p.m. Hutto will be available to talk with anyone who has a problem with the federal government during his visit. Light refreshments will be served during the social period. Degree before they finally arrived at a selection of 12 who they felt ,could arrive at an unbiased decision in the case. The first witness to take the stand, Carl McNeill, 19, of Panama City, a witness for the prosecution, finally went on the stand Tuesday after- noon at 3:40 and was question- ed until adjournment time at 5:00 p.m. McNeil was to resume his testimony on Wed- nesday morning when court, convened. McNeill told a tale of himself, the victim and three others who had spent a 24-hour period going from bar to bar drinking and finally wound up in Wewahitchka at a fish camp before going to Daves Bar in PE VMurder Wewahitchka to continue their drinking spree. The shooting allegedly took place outside in front of the bar in the early morning hours of January 18. Testimony had not progres- sed to the point where a reason for the shooting was revealed at press time Wednesday. McNeil had testified Tuesday that Berry and a group were "messing around" outside the bar, when Mayhann walked up and the shooting occurred. The trial is expected to last until Friday or possibly Satur- day of this week. A total of 30 witnesses have been called to testify in the trial. Judge Larry Bodiford is presiding over the proceed- ings. Interest Due On Taxes Monday Friday, May 22 at 5 p.m., is the deadline for paying real property tax bills in Gulf- County and taking advantage of the four percent discount. Taxpayers still have until June 22 to pay taxes before the tax rolls are advertised for tax sale, according to Tax Collec- tor, Eda Ruth Taylor. Those paying taxes between Friday, May 22 to June 22 must pay a three percent penalty. Those delinquent accounts which are not paid by June 22 can then be .put up for a tax certificate title sale. Tax certificates will be sold on the property in the arrears to pay the amount due for the 1980 taxes. That amount set for tax sales also includes cost, interest and prorated advertising as well as the taxes due. Certificates will not be sold if the property tax is paid by the date of the sale. Purchasing a tax certificate does not give the purchaser clear title to the property, however. What purchasers have after they buy a tax certificate is a lien against the property for approximately two years and not an actual -deed. After a two-year period, holders of the tax certificates may then file a tax deed (Continued un Page 3) Graduation exercises will be presented for the 178 seniors graduating from Gulf Coun- ty's two high schools, begin- ning Sunday and continuing through Tuesday, according to Walter Wilder, Superinten- dent of Schools.

A second primary election Tuesday, will feature a run-off election between Alton Fennell and David Horton for a seat on the City Commission. Horton and Fennell were the top vote-getters out of a field of three candidates in the first primary election held two weeks ago. The winner in Tuesday's run-off will serve on the board for one year, finishing out the term of the late John Robert Smith. Both Fennell and Horton are first-time candidates in city politics. Fennell is an employee of St. Joe Paper Company and Horton is an employee of the Apalachicola Northern Railroad. Both candidates have been active in civic services for several years. The polls will open at 7:00 a.m., on Tuesday morning and remain open until 7:00 p.m. The City Fire Station will be the polling place. Two weeks ago, nearly 1,200 of the City's 2,700 registered voters went to the polls in what had been a low-key campaign. More are expected to cast their ballots in the run-off Tuesday. SECOND QUESTION A second question of equal importance will be on the ballot Tuesday, when the electorate will vote on whether or not to give the City Commission the power to reduce or eliminate ad valorem taxes for any new industry moving into Port St. Joe or a present industry which expands substantially. The tax relief would be for a period of up to five years. The State of Florida recently gave local government this option, with approval by the people, to attract more jobs to Florida. Other counties and cities in the Panhandle have already given their governing bodies this authority to attract new industry to North Florida. Port St. Joe will vote on giving the same power to their Commission Tuesday and the county will vote on June 2 to give the authority to the County Commission on June 2. The approval of the authority does not mean an automatic tax deduction or elimination for any new industry which moves into the city or county. Approval of the measure gives the local government the power to give tax relief if it is deemed the proper thing do under the circum- stances. Approval of the measure would give the Commission the authority to give property tax relief in any degree up to 100 percent for a period up to five years or any portion of time less than five years. Bay and Washington counties have already given this authority to their boards and are already reaping results from the tax relief capability. The City Commission was concerned with vicious dogs and empty run-down buildings in its meeting Tuesday night. With several complaints from local citizens about several biting and otherwise vicious dogs on their hands, the Commission searched their dog ordinance to see what could be done about the problem. The ordinance was a bit hazy about steps to take in the matter, so Mayor Frank Pate instructed attorney Billy Joe Rish to meet with the state's attorney to see what powers the City might have in solving 'the problem. The Commission has had complaints from the Garrison Avenue area about dogs bit- ing, chasing people and gen- erally making vicious at- tacks on adults and children alike. Several reports were received of people being bit- ten. "We can't have vicious dogs running loose on our streets", Mayor Pate remarked. Police Chief Roy Robinson said some of the dog owners had been approached about the matter and advised to put them up according to the City's leash law which re- quires that all pets be kept under control or under re- straint. Robinson went on to say the dog catcher had tried to catch some of the dogs complained about, but that they successfully eluded all efforts to catch them. The Commission was unan- imous in wanting to find some legal way to either have the dogs restrained or take other measures. In the matter of run-down buildings, Mayor Pate report- ed a problem on Avenue D in North Port St. Joe and Com- missioner Wesley R.

Editorials and Opinions THE STAR PAGE TWO THURSDAY, MAY 21. 1981 Playing politics is a funny S game, but politics as it is being --played with the continuation of a 7 committee to manage the water levels in the Dead Lakes are being played funnier than we have ever seen them before. In this particular game, we S :ave a Representative in Tallahas- see, taking care of a strictly local problem and insisting on support- ing a local bill which local government officials tell him they want killed. Another strange political move about the same subject came when -.the Gulf County Commission asked the Legislator in the first place to .pass a local bill giving them complete' control over the lakes. ..Why they even want control over t::'the lakes is beyond us. It was so i-much more comfortable and politi- .,ally handy to have an independent "committee, free of political ties and -Iresponsiblity, running the affairs ;of the Dead Lakes. Control by the County Commission will give them .."4ust one more thing to catch flack or. But, the Commission did ask 5 the Legislator to pass the bill and it' was duly drawn up and advertised ' Jor the prescribed 30 days before !lthe bill was introduced. Then, another county, which has only a minimal acquaintance S Don't Sh SThe Way O All of us here in Port St. Joe are losing a good citizen at the end of :; this month. Reverend Johnie McCurdy, L" pastor at the Methodist Church is Being transferred to Alabama. For the most part, the Metho- dists have been blessed with good pastors here in Port St. Joe, but we 7 think we will get no argument to S the position that Rev. McCurdy has been head and shoulders above all the rest, so far as being a first class S citizen of our community is con- "' cerned. a The good preacher has been actively involved in the community and its affairs and has always expressed the spiritual aspect of 4. whatever he has been involved in. there has never been a time when it was not clear that Rev. Johnie has been concerned with matters spiritual when dealing with what- with the lakes decides they want the bill amended to give them equal authority over the lakes and their future. The Legislator, Leonard Hall, accepted the amendment and proceeded with his intentions of passing a local bill for Gulf County, but using a version Gulf County didn't ask for and doesn't want now. That's a strange way to handle a local matter. Representative Hall says he asked for an expression about the proposed amendment from Gulf County officials, but the sand they are raising now leads us to believe they hardly expressed a willing- ness for Representative Hall to add the amendment. Even so, the amended local bill wasn't the one advertised. Even if the local government did assent to the amendment, the people of Gulf County had not been notified of a change in the proposed bill in a legal manner and it shouldn't be considered until, next year at the earliest after public input could be considered. We think Representative Hall would better serve his constituency here in Gulf County if he were to kill the local bill, as hewas asked to do, until it could be considered further by the ones who asked for it in the first place. ow Johnie u of Town ever he happens to be inoledmn. We have had the privilege of having Rev. Johnie in our commun- ity for a long time: a long time for a Methodist minister's tenure. We hope Rev. Johnie has profited by his association with us just half as much as we have profited by having him here. Wherever he goes in the future, we hope he remembers Port St. Joe as Port St. Joe will surely remember him on the best of terms. Our only hope to keep Johnie here is in his much publicized affinity for losing his way when he starts on a trip. Maybe he will lose his way when he is scheduled to leave and somehow, wind up right here in Port St. Joe again. If he asks the way out of town, don't tell him. We need him here. Nearly Half of Gulf's Roads Bad Hall Supporting Unpopular Bill accounted for 18.6 percent of the state budget. By 1981 it had dropped to 10.2 percent. "When you make budget comparisons these days, Cobb said, "it is of little value to talk in terms of actual appropriations because the value of the dollar has been so deflated. The only accurate comparison is to talk in terms of real dollars-dollars measured by the cost of living index, in which the 1967 dollar is the starting base." Cobb noted that state appropriations for transporta- tion in 1971 were $526 million. But with an inflation index of 123 percent, that amounted to only $426 million in "real dollars". In 1981, the transportation budget was $878 million. But the inflation index of 260 percent reduces this amount to $338 million real dollars. "That's a drop in real transportation dollars of 21 percent in ten years," Cobb Chub Likes It Here Dear Wes: Please permit me to use your medium while I make noises like a charter member of the local Chamber of Commerce, and try to thank my many friends. I recently spent a period of some 11 days in Tallahassee Memorial Hospital for sur- gery on the arteries of my legs. I should like to thank all of the wonderful people of our city and county who were so vitally concerned about my well-being. I am personally convinced that the prayers and supplications of my host of friends have played a major part in my recovery thus far. The long distance phone calls, the personal visits and the many cards and letters are much enjoyed and appre- ciated. Wes, when I first came to Gulf County, a short 20 years ago I was given a welcome home greeting that has stuck through the years. Now that I have seen just a little more of that hospitality and love you can rest assured that there is no other place around the globe that I would prefer to live for as long as the Good Lord allots me. Thanks, Wes, for letting me write this little memo, and please good people, accept this as a way of saying thanks to you for being so wonderful to me. Sincerely and Respectfully, F. E. "Chub" Brogdon said. "Meanwhile, our popula- tion increased by 2.5 million from seven to 9.5 million". "Based on DOT estimates, our state urgently needs an additional $300 million-or its equivalent in 1981 dollars-for the foreseeable future," Cobb said. "That's our only solution". "It costs approximately $74,000 to provide one lane- mile of road-but in ten years inflation is projected to push the cost to at least $250,964." Cobb said. "When you look at how much our outdated trans- portation system costs us, you see we must do something now," Cobb said. "It is time for concerned citizens to join together to see that our transportation crisis is speed- ily resolved." The oldest letter is "0" un- changed in shape since its adoption into the Phoeni- cian alphabet C. 1300 B.C.. We Get Letters McCurdy Served Well Dear Wesley: The Methodist of Port St. Joe have done many things to improve the moral and spirit- 'ual tone of our community. One of the best things they have done was to bring the Reverend Johnie McCurdy here as their pastor and community servant for the past several years. Brother McCurdy will soon be leaving the local church to serve in another area. Many of us of various denominations have loved and admired him, we appreciate his friendly and loving spirit. He has been very cooperative and helpful to all of our area ministers. We will miss him and the service he rendered. Sincerely, J. C. Odum When Fh WHO WOULD HAVE ever thought that Florida would be telling its people to reduce their consumption of water by 25 percent? == Floridi is fabled to be a land abounding in water. Lakes everywhere. Rivers and creeks by the thousands. A land with an economy based largely on the provision of water sports and activities for millions of tourists every y. tear. Florida running out of water? That's like Rockerfeller running South of money. It doesn't seem possible. Here in our portion of the state, we are not affected so much by the water Shortage now spreading across the state because of the unusual drought. 2 Even the great expanse of water at -: A.ake Okeechobee in the Everglades are drying up because of lack of rainfall. Florida can't help a lack of rainfall. No laws in the legislature will help that situation. Still, Florida isn't accustom- 'e~l to running out of water. We have Always had plenty. Now, the central portion of the state is caving in as the limestone caverns oridians Have to Cut Back On Water Use, ItIs Surely Dry underground collapse because of a lack of water to hold them up. When a state with the abundance of water supplies such as exist in the state of Florida begins to feel the water ETAO1 pinch, it is dry, dry, dry! The next thing you know, we'll be raising horned toads. DID YOU HEAR the one about the ethnic minority member (of which there are a lot in Chicago but only one prime example here in Port St. Joe) who accidentally locked his keys up in the car? "No", you say, "I haven't heard the one about the ethnic minority member who accidentally locked his keys up in the car. What about him?" It took him three hours to get his family out. .. Or... .do you know why it is that this same ethnic minority doesn't eat M and M's? Again, you're supposed to say, "No, why doesn't this ethnic minority eat M and M's?" The answer is obvious. They're too hard to peel! The first bit of information is courtesy Bo Boyette and the second courtesy that same lone representative of the discussed ethnic minority whb lives here in Port St. Joe and doesn't eat M and M's. DURING THE PAST months while we have had to become use to riding the equivalent of one of those mechanical bulls every time we get out on Highway 71 driving or riding in a car, we thought no one else in the state knew or cared of our plight here in Gulf County. Like so many people who have problems, we thought the entire world was ignorant of our plight and cared less whether we made it to one end of 71 to the other all in one piece or not. But, somebody does care. The Citizens for Better Transportation care, or so they tell us. These citizens notified the world by a news release last week that Gulf County has more than 49 per cent (that's about as close to half as you can get without going overboard) of its highways either substandard or obso- lete. That's not news to us, but then we are responsible for riding on them, paying taxes to get them repaired and having that tax paid in gobbled up for some other project. These same citizens also say that . only a quarter of the state's roads are in the same unfortunate condition. That. makes us quite a ways below the state standards a position which should earn us some attention. At least it should get us some attention before 1985, when the DOT says it will take its first look at Highway 71. Back in the old days when the state and federal government took care of all the problems, Gulf couldn't get many of these "free" goodies because our per capital income was supposedly too high. Then, when the state school money allotment was changed to consider t cost of living, Gulf was penalized aga using the excuse that our county was the most economical county in the state in which to live. Now, our roads are in a mess and the DOT says there is no money to pay for repairs to the road. As rich as our county is supposed to be, it must pay a lot of taxes. And, if it is so economical to live here in Gulf County, the cost of road repair must be lower too, allowing the DOT to scrape up enough money to purchase a bargain. I didn't believe those fairy tales when they were told and I don't believe them now. The truth is that Gulf County is a small county nestled off in the lower bulge of the panhandle. We're easy to forget or put off till everybody else is taken care of. We seem right handy, though, when election time comes around and people start hunting votes.

"Gulf County is a prime example of the deterioration of our state transportation system over the past ten years," said Charles E. Cobb, Jr., president of the Citizens for Better Transportation. CBT is a newly formed coalition of state business leaders concerned about Florida's deteriorating road and bridge network. An analysis by CBT of Florida Department of Trans- portation. data shows that 84 lane-miles of Gulf's total 170 lane-miles are either structurally or operationally deficient. The unit "lane- miles" represents the length of the roadway multiplied by the number of lanes: ten miles of two-lane road would equal 20 lane-miles. "The problem of the road and bridge deterioration isn't confined to just Gulf County alone", said Cobb, chief ex- ecutive officer of Arvida Corp. "It is a statewide crisis of mushrooming proportions." He pointed out that: 7,163 miles of highway, more than one quarter of the state's primary system, are in need of repair or reconstruc- tion. More than 1,500 of the state road system's 5,100 bridges are in need of major repair or replacement. Florida is the last in the nation in completion of the interstate system with 310 miles uncompleted and her system may never be finished. Why have Florida's roads and bridges fallen in such disrepair? "The answer is simple", said Cobb. "In terms of real dollars, per capital spending on transportation has been cut in half during the last decade." . 'Qur,, research shows that perciita spendipg'fe.im ,. $60 in 1971 to opily $3,0 in 1981," he said.

THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1981 PAGE THREE 9Speaker Tells Rotary Local Treatment Is "Well Run" Rod Westall, a representa- tive of Russell and Axon, engineers, spoke to the Rotary Club last Thursday, telling the club of the problems of operation with the City's Wastewater Treatment Plant. Westall's firm has just com- pleted a two year study of the plant and its operation in preparation to making recom- mendations on how to correct the plant's problems. The speaker said the Port St Joe plant was unique. Built when the technology was still young, the method of treat- ment of wastes is good. The problem with the plant is that it has never functioned :as required by DER and EPA, most because of design con- cepts thought to work, which didn't when put together. "The most obvious problem is dthe incinerator", Westall said. "This piece of machin- ery didn't work from the first day it was installed and hasn't since." The incinerator was Dr. Eulogio Vizcarra Announces the Opening of His Office In Mexico Beach On Monday, May 18. The Office Will be Located On Hwy. 98 next to the Fiesta Shopping Center. OFFICE HOURS: He will have morning office hours from 10 a.m. to 12 a.m. and after 5 p.m. by appoint- ment. He will maintain his regular office hours in Port St. Joe from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Fridays. Phone 648-8274 or 229-8475 for Mexico Beach. Phone 229-8258 for Port St. Joe designed to burn up dry sludge from the treatment process. The sludge is currently being hauled off and spread through the woods and used as an aid to grow trees. The main problem with the plant is that it is having trouble meeting discharge permits, which are more stringent thao requirements of similar plants throughout the area. Although the plant meets its permits on an average figure, it goes over on occasion for a day at a time more than the EPA or DER would like for it too. Westall said this problem would take about nine or ten changes to correct, all of which will cost around a total of $2 million, "Which is cheap at the price", he said. Westall said that on the positive side, some of the problems the plant faces are already being corrected, not- ably testing a solution for the leaking dike and addressing the problem of accumulating sludge in the 70 .'cre settling lagoon. Westall told the Rotar- ians, "This is one of the better managed plants our firm has. ever worked with and we have worked with a lot of them". Westall went on to say that effluent from the plant has at' least met the original goal of the environmental people. "The effluent has not damag- ed the receiving waters in any way". Westall pointed out that according to daily records kept since before the plant was built, the quality of the bay waters has actually im- proved drastically since the plant went into operation.

Continued from Page 1 Vicious Dogs (Continued from Page 1) told of another falling down building on Avenue C, which needed the attention of either the owners or the City. Pate said the house on Avenue D had been unoccu- pied for a long time, was in a state of falling down and the property all grown up with weeds and other debris. The house on Avenue C had been partially torn down and the remainder just left to fall down. Attorney Rish was instruct- ed to write letters to the owners and instruct them to clean up the property, or the City would remove the build- ings and take out a lien against the property involved. Other than these two prob- lems, the Commission faced a very light agenda at its meeting Tuesday. After requesting the Depart- ment of Transportation to do something about the corner of Fifth Street and Highway 98, the DOT advised the Commis- sion Tuesday, they would paint some "No Parking" signs on the south side of the intersection beside the Motel St. Joe. The problem is that when cars are parked in the last place on Fifth Street, large trucks can't make the corner with safety. The Commission also grant- ed a variance to Mr. and Mrs. Gene Fowler, allowing them to encroach by a few feet on the side set-oack line of their property to build a garage on the side of their home. There were no objections to the variance. Several surplus items were Interest On Taxes (Continued from Page 1) application with the tax col- lector's office. But during that two-year period, the property owner may pay off the lien and the expenses and interest and retain their land. The tax collector then noti- fies the holder of the tax certificate of this and pays off the costs to the holder. If the tax certificate is held seven years without any ac- tion taken on it, the deed then falls back to the county. Property owners can avoid all this and interest too by paying their taxes by tomor- row. After that date, interest is applied against the tax bill by the Tax Collector in the amount of three percent until the tax bill is paid or the tax bill is advertised. approved for sale at bid. The items, located at the Waste- water Treatment Plant, inc- clude such items as two Jeep engines, a Cincinnati milling machine and miscellaneous metal equipment and sup- plies which have been declar- ed surplus. The Commission gave Clerk Alden Farris authority to advertise for the purchase of two new office model type- writers.

The Activity Center's Expansion has dictated the 'Ineed for additional facilities; but due to insufficient funds, the Association for Retarded Citizens has looked to the community for donated labor to renovate an adjacent build- ing. The building was obtained from the City of Port St. Joe through a rent-free lease agreement. The building will be used for offices, a grooming program, a health room and a job readiness training workshop. The Building Trades Class, under the instruction of J.T. Wood, has worked diligently to install windows and rough in the interior walls for the Association. The afternoon class students participating in the project are: Alan Griffin, Eugene Powell, Mitch Fortner, Tommy King, Joey Hewitt, Bryan Melton, Torch Wil- liams, Greg Hamilton, Rob Baker, Bertha Harris, Mark Mork,.and Gerald Shaerer.

THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1981 BB Buttrick Wins Ling Ding Run A few of the 107 runners who lined up for the start of the Second Annual Mexico Beach 5,000 Meter Run did not realize they would be running down on the beach sand until they arrived for registration. How- ever the majority know ahead of time that it was not the usual easy course encountered when they attended the usual week-end roadraces. They oad come to the beach to see what they really had left in those legs that had been recording from fifteen to over a hundred miles a week in training. Again, from the time Alford Ramsey pulled the trigger from the shotgun start, until his familiar blond hair could be seen bouncing in the wind on his way back to the finish line, Dave Butterick of Tyndall Air Force Base knew his 130 miles per week training has put him in position to take home the over winner's trophy. Dave was followed to the finish line by Jerry Black and Mike Nichols of Panama City. The top female finishers were Robin Moses who placed first in that category and Mary Jane Funk placing second, followed by Nancy Williams who took home the third place trophy. Place ribbons were awarded in 20 age groups, ten for male and ten for female and first through sixth place ribbons were presented. Rick Lam- berson, president of the St. Joseph Bay Road Runners who hosted the run presented the awards. . The race sponsor, the El Governor Motel, provided the club with the necessary front money to stage the run. The local club, and in particular the Race Director; Perry McFarland, is very .grateful for their sponsorship for the last two years. Softball Tourney In Wewa A "B" Class, A.S.A.

The race was run along the beach with approximately 100 runners in the race. alligators In the wild, alligators feed on a variety of animals including fish, frogs, turtles, snakes, water birds and small mammals. In areas close to human activity, large alli- gators have been reported to eat domestic pets and live- stock.

The first nationwide driver education program specific- ally designed for older motor- ists will soon be offered in Port St. Joe on June 10 and 11. Since 1979 volunteer in- structors throughout the state have offered 55 ALIVE- MATURE DRIVING to more than 6,000 motorists over age 55.

Research shows that older check to $1,000 to Superintendent of alter Wilder, as part payment for rms purchased recently for the. old". The Boosters are paying for rms with various fund raising -Star photo Tape Made of Spellers The Port St. Joe High School has a videotape of the 1981 Floriu4l;egional Spelling Bee on hand in the county staff development film library, if anyone should wish to use it for a civic club program or just to see it in order to see what happened at the bee. According to R. Marion Craig, staff coordinator for the spelling bee competition, the film was taken at the spelling bee finals here in the county and developed and printed by the Florida Times- Union, state sponsors of the spelling bee. Craig says the film should prove especially interesting to the students in grades 5-8 who are eligible for school and county spelling contests. Hope Lane, Gulf County spelling champ, survived the first round in the Regional by spelling "oasis". She was eliminated in the second round by missing "quench". Marie Kiffin, Duval County, won the 1981 regional by spelling "aphasia" and "over- weening", correctly. drivers are involved in more accidents than their middle- age counterparts when the record is based on actual miles driven. Due primarily to the physical changes of aging, many older drivers have difficulties in yielding the right-of-way, backing, turning,, changing lanes and entering and leaving express- ways. However, research also in- dicates that persons can im- prove their driving abilities through training, .attention and practice. That is the goal of 55 ALIVE-MATURE DRIVING.

The Board reviewed a re- uest to move Baccalaureate service, Wewahitchka High School for 1981 to the Glad Tidings Assembly' of God Church.

ADJOURN There being no further business, the meeting adjourned to meet again on May 5 at 5:30 p.m. B. Walter Wilder . Superintendent Gene Raffield Chairman Development and Transporta- tion. In the area of Education we provided $83.7 million, or about 10.8 percent increase in the weighed FTE (full time equivalency) for schools this year. Law Enforcement received an approximate increase of about 18.5 percent. This was to provide additional correction- al officers, increased monies for state attorneys and to provide salary increases for those law enforcement offi- cers considered to be in critical classes. Nearly $6 million was put into Economic Development in 1981-82, which provides, a revenue increase of about 62 percent. Transportation was kept at the same budget level with $740 million. I did introduce an amendment to the Appropri- tions bill that would insure the SAP monies (special approp- riations programs) were available for the four-laning of U.S. Highway 231 from the Bay County line to Kents Mill Road. This money had been appropriated during the 1979 budget deliberations, but had disappeared in the Governor's recommended programs. Hopefully, this will insure that this much needed project will be funded. This budget reflects no tax increases, but provides in- creased funding for the critical areas. As far as federal money losses, Educa- tionwas guaranteed at least 75 percent of the 1980-81 federal impact entitlement, less any revenues received in 1981-82. Otherwise, we picked up no ,federal programs that have been cut, which will amount to budget cut-backs in some areas. We did, however, pro- vide an additional $2 million in Community Care for the elderly and an increase of' about $31 million for commun- ity colleges, : Overall, we attempted to adequately proved for in- flation, but keep our expenses down to follow the mandate of the people for new taxes. Baldwin Sailor of The Year Navy Builder First Class David R. Baldwin, whose wife Marla, is the daughter of Robert L. and Zola Taylor of Route 1, Wewahitchka, has been selected as the Sailor of the Year for the Naval Am- phibious Base Coronado, San Diego.
