Authority of Dead Lakes.Board



To Be Tested In Court Case


Over Decision As to Whetheror Not to Remove Dam


What started out as a temporary argument
the first of the year, to provide water south of the
Dead Lakes Dam now faces the prospect of
blossoming into a full-scale controversy over
whether or not all or a portion of the Dead Lakes.
Dam should be removed temporarily or
permanently or not at all.
In their first meeting with a full board, the
/Dead Lakes Water Management Commission
Shas ente~taihed the pi6ssihility of removing a
section of the.dam for a period of time to. alloW.
,'the lakes to flush themselves in hopes such an
action will restore the Dead Lakes to the fishing
-haven it has been for years.
This idea has met with opposition tothe point
where the Dead Lakes Commission is being
.taken o court by a group-of Panama City
residents, headed by Monroe Sullivan, to prevent.
removal of the dam until it can be determined
whether the Dead Lakes Commissiori actually
has the authority to remove the dam.
Sullivan and his group are asking, for a
temporary court, order to block the board from
dismantling any part of the structure.
The board has 30 days to respond to the suit'
with evidence concerning why the governor-
appointed -board should have authority to
remove part of the dam.
TO STUDY DAM REMOVAL
Jim Bozeman, one of the latest, members
appointed to the board by Governor Bob
Graham, told The Star Tuesday -that as he
understands it, the board has no intention of
. removing any part of the dam until the matter
has been studied thoroughly and advice received
from experts in the matter.
Bozeman said the board has no intention of
removing all of the dam, at least not at the ,
present' time. "What we talked about is going
down in the water and cutting three sections of
the sheet piling off just above the bottom and
removing the sections for a period of two or three
years to see what happens". Bozeman said,
"Right now, we are just asking the attorneys to
advise us if we have the legal authority to


remove any part of the structure.".
According to the board member, the
Northwest. Florida Water Management Board
has been brought into the picture and has made
five suggestions to .the Dead Lakes board."
Bozeman said, "They recommended that we
leave the dam as it is, replace the gates of the
drawdown structure which were removed in
January, remove the dam, and two bother
suggestioins'lii-ch av beenr dismissed because
of the expense involved with both ideas".
"We don't want to spend a lot of money in
whatever we do", Bozeman said. "There has
already been too much money spent in this
matter."
SBozeman said he felt something needed to be
done. "The fishing in the lakes is terrible'now
and the fish which are caught are undernourish-
ed to a great degree", Bozeman said. He pointed
out that when the water was so low the first of the
year, the fishing was good, because the lakes
were so low. "Even so, they were not in the best
of shape", he said.
Bozeman said the advice they have received
says the sediment which has collected in the
lakes behind the dam is the culprit in the matter.
"The fish will not bed in the silt. They need a
sandy bottom where they can fan themselves a,
bed." .
The architect which had a hand in design of
the dam has advised the Board that removing
three sections will not adversely affect the
stability of the structure..
JERRY GATES AGREES
Jerry Gates, secretary of the Dead Lakes
board agrees with the idea to remove a portion of
the dam. "I personally hope they will go through.,
with it, and nearly all of the people who live on
the lakes agree with the board in this matter",
Gates said.
Gates claims that the water level won't
fluctuate as much as many people think. "The
channel in the river is maintained at nine feet for
85 percent of the year and this alone.would keep
the lakes in good shape".


Like Bozeman, Gates feels that flushing of
the lakes by natural water action will
dramatically help the fishing in the lakes and
make them a favorite of sportsmen from miles
around once again.
OTHERSFEAR REMOVAL
Even as much as the board 'members are
sure removal of a section of the dam for a period
of time will help the fishing in.the lakes, there.
are those who are just as convinced that it will
damage the lakes. .
One of-the most outspoken of the advocates
of this idea is Harland Pridgeon, who worked
long and hard to get the dam built in the first
place. Pridgeon feels that ifproperly utilized, the
drawdown structure will adequately manage the .
lakes and preserve' its fishing for the future.
Pridgeon feels the lakes would dwindle down
to a third of their present size if the dam is
-opened up.
What started all of the concern over the
lakes in the beginning was the proliferation of
water weeds in the lakes, when their natural
mouth was shut off by the dam. The drawdown
structure was later built to control the weeds by
lowering the lakes to allow sunlight and cold
weather to kill the weeds.
The only time this has been effectively done
was the first of this year, when the gates were
tampered with.and finally removed to allow the
lakes to drop.
Gates said that even after that low ebb of the
water level, the weeds are already coming back
into the lakes as strong as ever.
The board members want to remove the dam
portion' so fish can migrate into the lakes to
spawn. Pridgeon says this can be accomplished
by leaving the drawdown gates open.
Before the matter is settled by removing or
leaving the dam as it is, there will probably be
many thousands of words said about the matter-
and more than likely some hot arguments. Both
sides want the same thing, to preserve the
fishing credibility of the lakes. Now, the only
thing both sides have to settle is how to go about
achieving this goal.


Jim Appleman, State Attor-
. ey announced this week that
three men were given prison
Storms, four entered guilty

New Trash

Collection

Site Opens
The Gulf County Mosquito
Control Department opened
another of their new garbage
collection sites this past week,
when a new operation was
opened at White City.
The new facility at White
City employs the new Swacar
trailers, placed behind a ramp
which allows those using the
site to drive to the edge of the
trailer and dump their trash
inside with a minimum of
Effort.
The facility at White City is
located at the site of the
former landfill operation,
which has been discontinued.
This is the second of four
planned trash collection sites.
A new garbage dumping site
has been established in the
last few daysiirr"the-'St. -Joe-
Beach area. The site' was
established to try and stop a
practice of people in the area
taking their trash out into. the
woods at the end of unfinished
streets and dumping it.
Those in the St. Joe beach
area can get to the new dump
area by going to the end of
Pine Street and taking a right
on Georgia. The dump is at the
end of Georgia, which is an
unfinished street.
The County is planning to
get strict with people who
dump their trash in other
areas on the beach and apply a
stiff penalty to those who do
so.


the two new plats to the City
Commission Tuesday for their
acceptance.
One of the new plats was St.
Joseph Addition, Number 12,
which contains 42 new build-
ing lots inside the City Limits.
The new subdivision is located
on Garrison and Marvin Ave-
nues between 20th and 22nd
Street.
The second subdivision was
the Old Town Addition, con-.
taining 30 lots located at the
south end of Monument Ave-
nue next to Oak Grove. The
subdivision lies between the.
street .going into Oak Grove
from the Centennial Building
and Highway 98.
Nedley said that if things go
as they have been planned, the
two subdivisions will be open-
ed'up for sale of lots by the last
quarter- of this year.
NEW CEMETERY
After a little more than a
year in the planning stage, the
City's new perpetual care
cemetery should be ready to
be put to use within two to
three months.
Street Superintendent Dor-
ton Hadden reported to the
Commission Tuesday night
that the property has been
cleared and graded and the
water people were now drill-
ing the well to supply water


for the facility.
Hadden was instructed to
get prices, specifications and
availability of items to put in a
sprinkler system before the
next meeting. Hadden said he'
could have the sprinklers in
and the streets laid off within
two months.
Tentative rates have al-
ready been set by the Coin-
mission, with tentative rates
at $300 on a pre-need basis and
$400 on a present-peed basis.
All money received from lot
sales will be placed in a
special account to draw inter,
est. All interest earned will be
used to pay for maintenance to
the cemetery.
The new cemetery, located
adjacent to Holly Hill, will
have strict burial regulations
which have been designed to
allow for a minimum of effort
for maintaining the cemetery.
Nothing will be above ground
level.
FINANCIAL REPORT
In viewing its financial
status Tuesday night, to see if
the City's income will be
affected as other governments
have been by a reduction in
the business activities this
year,'City Clerk Alden Farris
said the City would probably
collect as much money during

'.' the Sheriff's Department to
investigate the missing ob-

alarmed that the thefts were
becoming so large and often
.3 i 'that it was obvious something
was going on without taking
inventory.
When the Sheriff's Depart-
ment entered the investiga-
tion, they started following
leads which led to Kemp's

Last Wednesday, as Depu-
ties Bobby Bagby and Jack

released Kemp on his own
recognizance.
According to an inventory at
the Gulf. County Sheriff's
office, the material which
Kemp had on the truck was
valued at $1,505.90. The mater-
ial included tools, tool cases
and cabinets, parts, cans of

too much of a dangerous and illegal
drug combination in his system.
Noguchi ruled that the excesses in
all three cases were the cause of
death.
For his trouble, Noguchi is now
facing dismissal following accusa-
tions. that mismanagement and
mishandling of evidence had com-

There are also accusations that
Noguchi had made "sensationalized

Such a reaction, we feel, is read
by the young people to say that
society is approving drug use by
celebrities by punishment of those
who call attention to its dangers
while it appears to frown at the use
of drugs by common everyday folk.
Had Belushi's death been publi-
cized as an awful waste of life and

accident, we think the. nation's
disapproval of the. illegal use of
drugs would have been better
served.

The sales tax was sold on the

Taxes are taxes, whether they
are taken from the right hand or the

its tax picture when it came up with
those whopping homestead exemp-
tions.-
Not many people will agree with
us, because the salestax will be paid
a penny at a time and nobody will
miss it when it leaves their pocket.
We'll grant you, it may be an easy
tax to pay. When you consider that
"only a penny" on dollar will bring
in nearly 800 .million dollars, it is a
source of revenue to be viewed with
concern.
If there were a real need for the
money, we wouldn't utter a word of
protest. When the extra penny is
applied merely to keep some politic-
cally expedient programs going to
foster votes, we object, just like
Representative Hall did.

had budgeted. Farris said
investment of several City
funds in interest bearing notes
would earn more than esti-
mated this year, which would
make up for any short-fall in
revenue from other sources.
Farris told the Commission
that the City should suffer no
financial hardship this year,
other than the economies built
into the budget in light of the
financial situation which was
threatening at the time the
budget was drawn.
"We'll have to watch our;
expenditures", Farris said,
"but we should have no
problem making our revenues
last through the year".
ORDER FIREWORKS
The Commission, still grati-
fied by the public response to
last year's July Fourth fire-
works display, placed its
order Tuesday night for an-
other fireworks display pack-
age for July Fourth of this
year.
Commissioner Billy Flem-
ing said, "I hate to spend all
that money for something like
fireworks, but it drew such
good response last year, I
think it was money well
spent".
The fireworks display order-
will cost the City approxi-.
mately $2,200.
VARIANCE REQUEST
The Commission had a
request for a variance from
Mr. and Mrs. H. S. Lilius to
build a carport on the rear of
their home on Constitution
Drive. The carport would be at
the rear of the home out of
sight from the street, but it
would be closer to the proper-
ty line than is allowed in this
particular building zone.
The Commission agreed to
advertise for any objections to
the request as is their normal
procedure.

myself in active personal

what I thought was the
inevitable. It never came to

My target date was my son's
fourteenth birthday (thirteen

higher side). His birthday
finally came, and went- no

birthday approached, I studi-

that he had possibly also
grown in personal knowledge,
and I certainly didn't want to
run the risk of being upstaged
during or after my presenta-

to take him .on dates. He

It finally reached a point
where I began to snoop. I
would search his room hoping
I wouldn't find what I feared
most:, a tube of lipstick, a
skirt, bra, panties and high
heels. What I did find was
even more embarrassing! I
found the same things I had
when I was a boy: a couple of
knives, an assortment of rocks

Boy Scout badges, a crumpled
picture of a girl friend and a
copy of the Morse Code. It
couldn't be worse if he had
walked in and caught me red

i tBillion Still Looks Big In Spite of This Era ofHigh Finance Talk


-IN THESE DAYS OF high prices,
even a billion looks big to those of us
who are now getting accustomed to
talking in thousands, where we former-
ly talked iai hundreds.
I remember my late friend, Joe
Ferrell, who always carried a hundred
dollar bill around in his billfold and he
would cause young jaws to drop in
amazement when he would flash that
hundred dollar bill. That was a lot of
money. Now, a hundred dollar bill
doesn't last for very long.
S We now talk in billions when we
talk about state or national budgets.
Even the state of Florida approved over
a $10 billion budget the other day in one
2 of the quickest approvals of a budget in
:several years. For the past several
;-years, the Legislature has almost
matter-of-factly gone into extra days in
their session to struggle over a budget.
On the first vote last week, the House
approved their version of the $10 billion
plus budget. The Senate had their own
version, but it, too, was in the $10 billion
class.
The federal budget flirts in ,the
S'700f-800 billion neighhnrhood and we


can say it quickly, with no strain, and
accept it as a matter whichis just part
of the times we live in.
Our national debt has gotten into
figures which even sound big to all of us


who have become jaded into talking in
big figures.
The national debt is now over a
trillion dollars.
Just how much is a trillion? I can't
fathom a trillion of anything.
I read something in the papers the
other day which caused me to stare in
disbelief and shudder at the state of the
United States with its trillion dollar
debt.


That's a lot of money, too.
The article which prompted this
blurb was in the Readers Digest and
had to do with the natural gas deal
Russia is trying to put together with


into the billions of dollars.
Here is Siberia with enough natural
gas to supply all of Europe with the fuel
for up to 50 years or more, and their
known supply is only 34 times our


esley R. Ramsey


Europe, piping Siberian natural gas
into Europe to provide that area with a
needed cheap fuel supply.
According to the article, the
Russian natural gas reserves were said
to be around 34 trillion cubic feet.
Apparently, this reserve is enough
to supply Europe with natural gas for
several years, since their plans call for
a pipeline which will cost far more than
the Alaskan pipeline, which was well


national debt in units.
Boy! That's a lot of gas and a lot of
dollars.

IF YOU READ regularly, you find
out the strangest things.
The other day I was reading a
magazine and ran across this little
known fact which might interest you.
Epalog, the official publication of


the Environmental Protection Agency,
reported a recent study showing that
"ten cows burp enough gas in a year to
provide for all the space heating, water
heating, and cooking requirements for
a small house. Burping cows must rank
as the number one source of air
pollution in the U.S.", the article
concluded, adding that American cows
burp about 50 million tons of hydrocar-
bons into the atmosphere every year,
and that "there presently exists no
available technology for controlling
these hydrocarbon emissions."
Pass the Tums.
I DIDN'T KNOW Sheriff Ken
Murphy was camera-shy.
Wednesday afternoon, as we were
cranking up the press to run The Star, I
had a call from the Sheriff's office
informing me they had a pick-up load of
tools and equipment which had been
stolen from the County Road Depart-
ment barn up in Wewahitchka.
I high-tailed it out to the Sheriff's
office to take a picture of the recovered
loot, where Deputy Jack Davilla told
me to cool it for a few minutes. "The


Sheriff is on his way out to see what we
have before we take any pictures."
As you know Sheriff Murphy had a
new plumbing job done around his
ticker a couple of weeks ago, so I was
surprised to hear that he was coming to
the office.
Sure enough, in just a few minutes
here came Ken, being driven to the
office by his wife.
You remember back when Presi-
dent Lyndon Johnson had his gall
bladder taken out and made history by
having a picture taken of him showing
his scar?
I thought this was my opportunity
to make history, so I put in on Ken to let
me take a picture'of his scar for all the
world to see; at least this part of the
world.
"Uh-uh", said Ken, folding his
arms across his chest and backing into
a corner.
I guess Ken is a Sheriff and not a
politician. A good politician would not
have passed up that golden opportunity
to get a little sympathy from his
constituents.

Edwin R. Ailes, Executive
Director of the Gulf County
Guidance Clinic, Inc. has
announced that the Guidance.
Clinic is presently surveying
the community to determine
the interest and need for
conducting a "Weight Control
Program" at the Clinic. Ac-
cording to Ailes, the purpose
of this program would be to
offer behavorial or psycho-
logical technique for weight
loss and control of weight
gain.. No drugs or dietary fads
would be utilized and medical
clearance prior to initiating
this program would be re-
quired.
Ailes suggested that persons
who are interested in this
weight loss program should
consider the following: weight
loss for you should be medical-
ly safe; you should have a
long-term reason for weight'
control; you should be willing
to expend effort in the pro-
gram; you should have sup-
port from others; and each
person entering such pro-
grams must be willing to
accept that they have the
power to control their weight.
Without these conditions,
Ailes indicated that this pro-
gram is not recommended. '

THE GREATEST NEWS EVER PUBLISHED


"For God so loved the World, that He
' gave His only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in Him (Jesus) should
not perish, but have everlasting life.

For God sent not His Son into the World
to condemn the World, but that the World
might be saved (from sin).

He that believeth in Him (Jesus) is not
condemned; but he that believeth not is
condemned already, because he hath not
believed in the name of the only begotten
Son of God.

And this is the condemnation, that
Light is come into the World, and men lov-
ed darkness (sin) rather than light (Jesus)
because their deeds were evil."

are twice as high for subcom-
pacts and.small subcompacts
as for the largest cars.
The most important step
small car drivers can take to
save their lives and will not
cost anything is to use their
seat restraints. Belts are
already installed in nearly all
passenger vehicles.
Small cars are constructed
of lighter materials to reduce.
energy consumption, there-
fore, there is less protection
for the occupants when in-
volved in a crash..
Better defensive driving
Would also save lives. .How-
ever, many drivers continue
their same dangerous driving
habits until involved in a
crash. By then it may be too
late.
Colonel Beach concluded by
saying, "We know that using
seat restraints will save lives
and only wish we 'could
convince .more drivers to use
them.' "


to join him are Major Tom
Garrison, Northwest Region
Manager: Bill Bartush, biolo-
gist in charge of the Wildlife
Management Areas in the

The group will explain how
Game and Fish' manages the
several public hunting areas
and how it assists owners of
large tracts- such as the
holding of St. Joe Paper,
Buckeye and Southwest
Forest Industries- in wildlife
management of private areas
which are opened to hunters.
The group also will be able to
answer questions about the
acreages of the various types
of management areas located
in. the Basin, seasons and
types of hunting allowed on
them, and the management
plans and policies which guide
the agency.

EXTENSION NOTES:


IRegular Fertilization


._Is Lawn Essential
S B Roy Lee Carter (unty Extension Director


.' A. regular fertilization pro-
gram is essential for growing
healthy, dense and beautiful
lwn, Fertilization is especial-
,Iyjinportant in Florida be-
ifause of the infertile sandy
.ps, Fertilization can more
,4ftgn improve poor quality
lawns or maintain good quali-
..ty: lawns than any other
.qIanagement practice. Of
.course, mowing, watering,
thatch control and pest control
muypt be combined with proper
FWtilizatibn to produce a
top-quality lawn.
A lawn fertilization schedule
,fs easy to plan. Three basic
questions need to be answered:
tWhich essential nutrients need
.Xto be supplied? What type of
fertilizer should be used? How
Olnuch fertilizer should be
applied and how often?
All plants require certain
Chemical elements for proper
growth and appearance. Of
these nutrients or essential
elernLnts, at least 16 are
knovmn. All essential elements
except carbon, hydrogen and
oxygen are obtained from the
Soil Eand absorbed by plant
owt'. If limited nutrients are
Available in the soil, lawn
growth and quality may be
flimifed. However, essential
lenlints can be added to the
oil through fertilizer applica-
;tionfi
The basis of lawn fertiliza-
4 ion is thus the application of
3 .,


.1 I


sufficient amounts of all es-
sential elements to produce
optimum turf growth.
Lawns require the macronu-
trients nitrogen (N), Phos-
phorus (P), and potassium
(K) in greatest quantities.
They should be applied in
large quantities and frequent-
ly. Calcium, magnesium and
sulfur are required in smaller
quantities and less frequently.
The micronutrients iron, man-
ganese, zinc, copper, chlorine,
molybdenum and boran are
required in very minute qu-
antities and less often than the
macronutrients. Micronutri-
ents are as essential as the
major elements but are re-
quired in micro amounts
A soil test is the most
effective tool in determining
your fertilizer needs. Soil
testing is available from the
University of Florida through
your local County Agent of-
fice. The results of the soil
analysis will be returned with
recommendations for fertili-
zations.
Fertilizers are identified by
analysis and-or brand name.
Many common commercial
fertilizers are known by their
analysis number, such as
16-4-8, 10-10-10 or 8-8-8. A
complete fertilizer contains
nitrogen, phosphate and pot-
ash. The numbers indicate the
percentage of each of these
nutrients. A 16-4-8 grade, for

ate of Port St. Joe High
School, reported to. spring
training with the Atlanta
Braves Baseball Organization
on Monday, March 8. to begin
preparing for the 1982 profes-

er, who gained notoriety at
Florida State where .he pitch-
ed three years for the Semi-

Hatcher was placed in the

Braves farm team at Braden-
ton. Among his fellow team-
mates was Larry Aaron, son
of former Brave and homerun
king, Hank Aaron. Near the
end of the 81 season when the
baseball strike came to an
end, it was Hank Aaron who
was instrumental in moving
Hatcher up to the Braves AA

Hatcher is looking forward

RAILROAD CENTENNIAL


five Most of the residents of
per Northwest Florida are aware of'
the railroad centennial celebra-
n if tions that will be taking place
ver along the route of the Louisville
ded and Nashville Train Line later
be this year. In this week's column.
rti- I 'would like to add my voice to
yes those paying tribute to the men
,hly and women .who were in-
strumental in building the
railroad which has added so
much to the life of Northwest,
Florida.
Passenger service in the
Panhandle was discontinued in
1971; however, all but the
p youngest of is' can remember
C. when the railroad was a major
has ,source of communication and
at transportation for all of Nor-'
thern Florida. It is no
understatement to say that most
stu- of the towns in the Northern tier
Sin of the Panhandle owe their ex-
tap- istence to the building of the
ics, railroad.
ary The train line was built in
'my the early 1880's under the direc-
tion of Colonel W. D. Chipley,
and a colorful' character bornwin
esi- 1840 in Columbus, Georgia.
Colonel Chipley, for whom the
e of town was named, was a Con-
[igh federate officer during the Civil
War and entered the railroad
business in 1872. In 1876 he
w went to Escambia County to
manage the Pensacola Railroad,
a small company building a
train line from Pensacola to
Flomaton, where it would link
up with existing L & N lines ex-
tending from Mobile to Mont-
gomery. At the time Pensacola
had only 7,000 residents. bu as
the area grew, it became evident
that Northern Florida needed a
railroad. Colonel Chipley form-
ed the Pensacola and Ailantic
Railroad Company which merg-
ed with L & N on May 9, 1882.
The merger with L & N provid-
ed Colonel Chipley with the
capital he needed to build his
railroad across the Panhandle.
The rail link was to extend 163
miles from a place on the
Apalachicola called River .Junc-
tion (present day Chat-
tahoochee), where it would con-
nect with existing lines to
Tallahassee. Historians aren't
sure whether construction began
in 1881 or 1882, but the laying
of the railroad, a tedious pro-
cess requiring hundreds of men,
horses, mules, and.oxen, ad-
vanced reasonably quickly 'and
the line was finished in 1883.
Unfortunately, .Colonel
Chipley left no written record of
his experiences. Historians,
however, have found some
writings by an employee of,
Colonel Chipley named J. D.'


Smith. Mr. Smith documents
the lack of population in the
area at that time. In 1882,
Milton and Marianna were the
only two towns on the line
between Pensacola and Chat-
tahoochee. After reaching-
Marianna from Chattahoochee,
Mr. Smith said. "From that
point on westward, the railroad
did not go near a single house
until it reached Milton." Mr.
Smith alos remarked that few of
the settlers who came to gawk
at the construction workers had
ever before seen a, train.
although he did state that
"'Oirange' Hill and" Vernon,
south of (present day) Chipley,
and Campbellton on the north
were sections where intelligent
people lived."
After the train line was com-
pleted, a number of towns
sprang up along its edges.
Crestview, DeFuniak Springs,
Caryville, Ponce de Leon,
Boniifay, Chipley, 'Cottondale
Sneads, Grand Ridge, Chat-
tahoochee and many smaller
communities are all direct
results of the construction of the
railroad. Without the rail lines,
much of the growth and pros-
perity .in the Panhandle would
have been impossible.
And so this May, the towns
all through Northwest Florida
are planning to hold centennial
celebrations. The L & N Com-
pany will be running an old
passenger ,train along the line
once again from Pensacola to
Chattahoochee and the event
should certainly be worthwhile
and enjoyable. Anyone wishing
to know more about his com-
munity's celebration should
contact the local chamber of
commerce or centennial com-.
mission chairman. I urge you to
lend your community your
fullest support in its efforts to
make this celebration a suc-
cessful one.
CORRECTION
In my column on the new
Budget, certain statistics were
omitted and misplaced due to a
misprint. The column incorrect-
ly stated that for each tax dollar
spent 43' goes to pay interest on
the national debt, 11' to grants
to states and localities, arid 4' to
other federal operations. The
correct breakdown is as follows:
for each tax dollar spent, 43'
goes to direct payments to in-
dividuals, 29' to the national
defense effort, 13' to pay in-
terest on our national debt, 11'
to grants to states and localities,
and 4' to other federal
operations.

game Hatcher talked with the
master of deception, Gaylord
Perry, about his techniques
and antics on the mound.
Perry assured him that his
main pitch was the knuckle-
ball, not the spitterr", but
with a little deception on his
part he could have the batter
believing that the dancing ball
was something out of the
ordinary, and not a standard
pitch. Hatcher adapted his
own style of deception and
acute concentration during
the 81 season with the Semi-
noles and also with the Braves
in his first year.
After Spring Training, Hat-
cher plans to return to the
Savannah team where he will
refine his pitching skills even
further and wait for the
moment that all minor lea-
guers dream of...the moment
when he is "called up" to pitch
on the Major League mound.

By Rep. Leonard Hall


Hall Votes Against Tax Bill


This week the House passed
out both the sales tax increase
and the appropriations bill,
which was based on the sales
tax increase.
I voted against both.
Although the sales tax bill
partially addressed two of my
three objections to the in-
crease- one being the re-
quirement of property tax
relief and the other being a


more equitable distribution of
revenues to small, rural coun-
ties- the House failed to
address my third objection.
I do not believe we seized on
a great opportunity to reduce
the growth and scope of state
government, and to address
the matter of inefficiency of
spending in state government.
In view of these facts, I could
not accept this increase in


taxes.
I firmly believe we had a
great opportunity this year to
review the problems of waste
and growth because of the
major financial crisis this
state was facing as a result of
federal budget cuts. But, we
did not. As a result, I could not
go along with this tax in-
crease.
I am for good law enforce-


ment, for good education, an
efficient and effective judicial
system, and reasonable pay
for state workers who do a
full-day's work. But, I strong-
ly believe we could have
worked on cutting some un-
necessary spending and saved
sufficient monies to have
funded these priority pro-
grams.
I also voted against the
appropriations bill for the
same reason. It would have
been hypocritical of me to
have voted for a budget based
on a one cent increase in the
state sales tax, when I voted
against the sales tax.
Again, I firmly believe we
could have carefully reviewed


recognized and remembered.
This is the goal of the many
leading women's organiza-
tions, college alumni associ-
ates and public officials who
nominate deserving young
women to participate in the
program. Serving as chair-
man of the program's Advi-
sory Board is Mrs. Dexter Otis
Arnold, honorary president of
the General Federation of
Women's Clubs.
Mrs. Waller, along with
approximately 23,000 fellow
Outstanding Young Women of
America from across the
United States, will be present-
ed in the prestigious annual
awards volume.
In addition, they are now
being considered for one of the
fifty-one state awards to be
presented to those women who
have made the most note-
worthy contributions in their
individual states. From these
fifty-one state winners, the
Ten Outstanding Young
Women of America will be
chosen. The ten national win-
ners will then be honored at
the annual awards luncheon to
be held this fall in Washington,
D.C.
Paula is the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Joel Lovett. She is a
graduate of Port St. Joe High
School.

our spending and saved suffi-
cient money to have adequate-
ly funded the priority pro-
grams.
In other action this week,
the House passed the Senate
companion to my bill that now
allows principals to suspend
students without first employ-
ing alternative measures in
the event of a serious breach
of conduct. This same bill will
also now allow principals to
search the lockers of students
when the principal has suffi-
cient reason to believe they
may be containing weapons or
illegal substances. This same
bill also.provides for a state-
wide study of truancy and
discipline in the state's
schools.
