here in Port St. Joe has been Basic, Inc., which has
been mostly down for the past six months with a
large segment of its employee force furloughed for
an indefinite time.
This week, Bo Boyette, manager of the firm,
said his plant is recalling all employees to report
to work on Monday morning of next week. "We're
going to start up with a full operation", Boyette
said.
Basic, which manufactures, a product used
primarily in fire brick used to line blast furnaces

like the steel industry has been.


Boyette said the firm. had 90 employees back
in June, when it started cutting back on its
operations. "We got down to only 19 employees at
one time", Boyette said. "We hop that doesn't
happen again".
During the past six months, the.lpcal plant has
averaged 30 to 40 employees at work. By
November the number was down to 19 and in
December, the plant started to recall their
.employees. "We're calling back 80 to report for
work on Monday", Boyette said.
PRODUCTION DOWN
During the past six months, the plant has


operated only one of five kilns used to make their
periclase product. At one time in November, there
were no kilns operating. "We're going to fire up all
five of our kilns on Monday", Boyette said. "We're
going for full production. I don't know how long it
will last, but we're hopeful it will continue for the
,remainder of the year. It will all depend on the
how the economic situation in the nation gets
along". n gets'

The economic situation with Basic employees
has been tough during the past six months.
Hopefully it will improve in the next 12 months.


City Objects to EPA's




WWP Plant Limits


Asks for Same Emission Levels As Others


After being on the receiving
end of demands and objections
from Environmental Protec-
tion Agency and Department
of Environmental Regulation
ever since its Wastewater
Treatment Plant started op-.
eration, the City Commission
decided "enough was
enough" this week and decid-
ed to do some objecting and
* demanding on its own.
The City's second five year
. permit from EPA is up for
,re-newal this month and EPA
-'waits to re-new it. with' the
same limitations which have
given the plant troubles ever
since it opened some eight
years ago.
In' a 'letter to John T.
Marlar, Chief Facilities Per-
formance Branch of .EPA,
Mayor Frank. Pate officially
expressed the decision of the
Commission when he signed a
letter stating the permit limi-
tations "are not, justified".

In the-meantime, the City
agreed Tuesday evening to
send out bids on January 15
to get prices on the remov-
al of accumulated sludge in
the 70-acre settling pond at
the plant, in an effort to
reduce the suspended sol-
ids emission from the
plant.
The dredging project
would take some six to nine.
months to complete at a
cost of nearly $1 million.-
The sludge will be pumped
under the Gulf County
canal to a field where it will
be spread out for drying
and plowing under.

The Commission has felt the
lirhitations are too stringent


for some time, now, ever since
they learned about four or five
years ago that other similar
plants have less restrictive
limitations than the Port St.
Joe plant has. As a matter of
fact, plant manager Bob Si-
mon says, "If we had their set
of limitations, we would be in
compliance every day, even
now with our lagoon in need of
removal of settled solids".

FPeninsula Property Is


On State's Shopping List


A portion of St. Joseph Peninsula is one of
several coastal tracts of land being consider-.
ed for purchase by the State of Florida; in its
"Save Our Coasts" program.
One of 'four tracts of coastal property in
north Florida, the Peninsula property is
presently nuniber eight on: the list of some 25
possible purchases. The information sheet
which released this "information Tuesday
didn't specify what property on the Peninsula
was being considered, nor. did it specify how
much property was under study by the State
Cabinet for purchase.
This does not mean the Peninsula property
will -be purchased, nor even survive the cut
when selections for definite purchase' are
made. Those 25 pieces of property currently
on the list, will be, considered by the State
Cabinet in its regular meeting on Tuesday;


January 11, to sort out the definites from the
.probables.
One of the biggest controversies in the land
purchases is whether or not to go after
expensive south Florida lands and spend al1
the available $200 million on a little bit 'o
land, or go after the larger parcels available
at a lesser price in north Florida, where
quantities of acres can be obtained with the
same money. If the emphasis is placed on the
south Florida property, there is a good
possilibity the St. 'Joseph Peninsula won't
even survive the cut by the cabinet even
though it is number eight on the list.
Other coastal lands of interest to the state in
northwest Florida include; Shell Island in
Bay County (number 9 on the list); Grayton
Beach, in Walton County (6); and Dog Island
in Franklin County, (12).

man is going to insist, again,
that the City remove the light ;_._.,
which has been in operation
ever since the post office was
built at its present site nearly
30' years ago. DOT keeps
pointing out that the traffic
count on the street at this point
is not enough to warrant
installation of a traffic control
signal.
The Commission keeps in-
sisting right back, that the
light is necessary for the
safety of pedestrians who
cross 'the street at this point
many times a day. In effect,
the light is in position and in
operation primarily for the
pedestrians and not for the
convenience of vehicular traf-
fic, which is a bother to DOT.
With DOT expected to con-
tinue their insistence that the
light be removed or either
up-graded to specifications set
out by DOT, the City is
expected to be just as ada-
mant that the light remain in
its present operation, blinking
out its signal during the day
and being shut down by City
police as the day draws to an
end. The light is usually

People of Gulf Want


-No More of That


With the record the State of
:Florida has here in Gulf County in
"their stewardship of public lands in
.our area, we think they will find
little e support in their announced
plan to possibly purchase even more
Gulf County land.
,The State has announced it will
consider purchase of acreage on St.
$ Joseph Peninsula "to preserve it for
, the public" in their Save Our Coasts
- program. How much land was being
considered for purchase wasn't
K announced. It really doesn't matter,
* we don't think the people of Gulf
SCounty would support any more
7 purchase of land which was of any
use whatever.
SIn years past, the State of
Florida purchased a large parcel of
,E land on the Peninsula for the
E purpose of construction of a state
park. The park was built all right,
and the people can go use it `by
paying a small fee. We don't knock
that. The state has put up some nice
facilities at the park and those who
Suse it should pay some small fee for
S the privilege. When you consider it,
-I the fee probably isn't enough to
- cover expenses of those who use the
- park facilities.
Then, the state purchased many
more acres of land beyond the park
and placed it off limits to people.
Things may have changed re-
cently, but in years past, the number
uf.- peoplee who went on that piece of
p-_kid were limited each day. The way

governed so tightly that hardly
anyone took the trouble to go on the
Peninsula. For all practical pur-
poses the Peninsula was inaccess-
ible to even those of us here in Gulf
County.
In years past, the Peninsula was
a favorite spot for adventurers in
four-wheel drive vehicles who want-:
ed a secluded and new place to surf
fish. No more. Put a motorized
vehicle on that land now and you're
breaking state law.
It's ours to use, but don't you
dare get on it unless you meet
certain criteria, which many people
can't meet.
Then the state purchased the&
land along the river, all the while
swearing sportsmen could use the
property as they.had in years past
and enjoy it. What was the first thing
which happened? The 'state told
those people who had leased the land
for years, to clear their camps off
the property, later amending the
deadline to 10 years hence.
Even though the grace period
was given, the order to move was not
lifted..,
People will not be able to use the
river swamp land as they have in the
past, as was promised.
These are only two instances. In
every other instance of state pur-
chase, use of the land by the people
of Gulf County has been prohibited
or severely restricted.
We think the people of Gulf
County want no more of that.

This Young Fellow Knew How to Get the Best of A Christmas Vacation


A MAN'S WORLD



The Golf Fairy

: I/ BY' SJ. D PHANTRY
i-~~~ fly ** '


Golf is a game that takes
years of practice before one
can become proficient at it. It
is a time consuming game, to
say the least, but a person that
doesn't practice will never
enjoy the benefit of being a
winner. It is unfortunate, but,
there are those who will never
excel at golf no matter how
much they practice. That is,
unless a miracle occurs. ,
The following example is a
case in point. This is the story
of'a man who loved the game
of golf but could never seem to
,become even reasonably good
at it. It seemed that the more
he practiced and the more he
played, the worse his score
was. He took lessons and
practiced more but when he
hit the'"links" it seemed his
game fell apart.
Although he started playing


relatively late in life (at about
.age thirty), he was an instant
addict and played often. Like
most golfers, he. had his
"group" he played regularly
with and they would play, on.
the average, three times a
week. More 'often than not,
however, he would play or
practice two more times dur-
ing the week because he
wanted, more than anything,
-to be known as a "good
golfer."
For years he played and
practiced and practiced and
played but he never won. He
took lessons and practiced
more but the results were the
same. He could not get his
handicap below a twenty-one
and it was extremely frustrat-
ing. It was also embarrassing
because the group he played
with had an average handicap
of about twelve.


One day while he was
playing and having one of his
most frustrating rounds, he
happened to hit a drive that
hooked into an extremely
dense thicket of pine trees and
high foliage. When he found
his ball he was not surprised to
find that he had an unplayable
lie. He would have to take a
penalty stroke, drop his ball
and hope he could get through
the trees and brush.
It was at this point in his golf
career that he seriously consi-
dered, for the first time,
giving up the game. As he
reached down to pick up his
ball, a little man, about six
inches tall, suddenly materi-
alized and perched on his right
shoulder. It was the "Golf
Fairy!"
"Having trouble?" the Golf
Fairy asked.
"Why, ya-ya-a, yes, I am!"


was his startled reply.
"Would you like to play good
golf?" the Golf Fairy asked,
"I mean real good golf?"
"Yes, I would," he answer-
ed, "more than anything, I
want to be able to play good
golf."
-"Well,, I can .help you, play.
.goodigolf," the Fairy continu-
ed, "but you must sacrifice!
something in return for my
helping you."
"Anything," he quickly
agreed, "I'll sacrifice any-
thing to be able to play good
golf!"
"All right," the Golf Fairy
continued, "your sacrifice will
be related to your sex life. Are
you agreeable to that?"'
"Yes," he quickly agreed,'
"if that's what it takes, it's
O.K. with me."
From that day on his golf
game was like coasting down-
hill on a ten-speed. He could do'
no wrong. His handicap soon
dropped to eighteen, then to
fourteen and soon he had
surpassed the members of his
group and was playing at a
very respectable handicap of
four. In less than a year he had
won the club championship.
He was seriously considering


.trying out for the P.G.A. tour.
It was at about this time that
the "Golf Fairy" made his
next appearance. He had just
finished a spectacular round
and was riding home when the
"Golf Fairy" suddenly ap-
peared on the dash of his car.
"How is your golf game
going?" the Fairy asked.
"Great!" was his enthusias-
tic reply.-7
"I have done my part," the
Fairy continued, "do you
remember the rest of the
agreement?"
"Yes, I remember," he
replied, showing no emotion.
"Well," the Golf Fairy said,
with a smile on his little face,
"tell me, how has your sex life
been, say, for the last six
months?"
"Not that great," he an-
swered, "but considering I'm
a Catholic Priest in a small,
Protestant town, it hasn't been
that bad either!"
Some people are just born
lucky.....

Industrially, Basic, Sylvachem and
the paper company are all bullish on
the future of the new year here in Gulf

increased activity for their concerns.
From what I have learned in the
last few days, the Material Transfer
operation could conceivably become a
gigantic operation; even as early as
this coming year.
With the cranking up of Seminole


Electric in Palatka, it will mean at
least a trainload of coal a day going out

the railroad, as well as MTI. On top of
that at least three large cities of central
and north Florida are looking at the
possibility of switching their power
plants to coal and using the if cility here
to import it from the coal fields and ship
it by rail to their plants.
That would step up the coal

'of the jobs given the engineers
by-the City Commission was to
find out if there was a
possibility of getting the emis-
sion requirements low ered
Frank Darabi, an engineer
with the Jones and Edmunds
firm has sinte reported that
the local limits were set
because the designing engin-
eer had said the plant could
achieve these emission num-
bers when he was designing it.
Darabi said the .local re-
quirements are not based on
EPA orDER requirements. "'I
think you have a good chance
to get the limitations eased
some", Darabi said.
With the engineering report-
ing good success on a project
to monitor water and bay
bottom qualities, the City
decided Tuesday to oppose its,
limitations and ask for a
relaxing of. their requirements
to meet the standards set for
other plants.
"If you: don't do this now,
you will have to live with these
same restrictions for another
five years i the duration of the
new permit) and maybe from
now on after that."
In closing out his letter to
DER, Mayor Pate stated, "We
hereby request a hearing to
consider a more appropriate
permit limitation for this
facility.",
Only one of two things can
happen. The City can be stuck


with the same discharge limi-
tations as it has had in the
past, or, it could just accom-
plish with a letter and a 20 cent
stamp what several hundreds
of thousands of dollars of
engineering work and millions
in plant changes have failed to
do in the past.

50 hours of community service work
along with mandatory attendance to a
drunken driver course.
Florida law is now. tough on drinking
drivers. If Gulf's defendants have been
up in court on this same charge before,
the sentence could. be much harsher
than this minimum penalty, including


mandatory time in jail.
.In addition to the two'DWI charges,
the County Court has two cases of
unauthorized use of a boat and motor,
and one case each of: disposing of
mortgaged property, battery, posses-
sion of a controlled substance, giving
alcoholic beverages to a minor, care-
less driving, battery, worthless check,
and possession of a controlled' sub-
stance..


Gulf County's County Court will
convene Monday morning at 10:00 a.m.,
with 12 cases on the docket to appear
before County Judge David L. Taunton.
The docket will feature two cases of
driving .while intoxicated to be tried
under Florida's new tough, drunken
driver law. Provided this is a first
offense for both defendants, they face a
mandatory sentence under state law of

The Town of Mexico Beach
has adopted an animal control
ordinance which requires in-

for a license tax, and prohibits
dogs from running at large on
the beaches and public lands
within the corporate limits of


Mexico Beach.
This ordinance became ef-

Police Chief Theo Harris.


Plantin

Not only is this the season wat
for pecan harvest in Florida, it vals
is also time to establish new irril
trees in your yard or home So
orchard. Pecan trees can be plan
planted from now until Febru- nuti
ary. hav
Before planting trees, you gen
should first select the appro- 10-1
private variety. While there are aroi
many varieties available, only after
a few are recommended' for Jun
backyard planting. This is Feb
because most homeowners do of 1
not have the necessary equip- trunk
ment to spray for the control foot
of destructive diseases, parti-
cularly scab. There are scab
resistant varieties available,
which have good production
levels and produce high quali-
ty kernels.
. Many pecan trees may be
unfruitful unless they receive
pollen from another tree.
Plant at least two varieties,
especially in areas where few
trees exist, to provide suffici-
Se n t' p o lle n .I '
The following varieties have
been recommended for the
homeowners: Stuart, large
size, excellent kernel quality,
scab resistant; Elliott, small
size, good kernel quality, very
scab resistant; Curtis, small
size, excellent kernel quality,
very scab resistant; and De-
sirable, large size, good kernel
quality, very scab resistant.
Purchase your trees from a-
reputable nursery or garden
center. Make sure that the
transplants roots have moist-
ure from the time of digging"
until planting. If possible,
plant your trees the day they
are obtained from the nur-
sery. Many trees are purchas-
ed through mail order firms
and garden centers and may
have been out of the ground
for several days. However, if
they have been stored and
handled with proper care they
should survive, .
Drying before planting is
one of the major causes of the
tree's failure to thrive and
grow. If the roots of your trees
have dried out, soak them in
water for several hours to
freshen them.. :
-Remove broken roots before s
setting trees. Dig a hole deep
enough to accommodate the root
system without bending it.
Because of the pecan's long
tap root, it is not unusual for'a
hole to be at least three feet
deep and from 12 to 24 inches
wide. .
Place enough topsoil in the
bottom of the hole so that the,
tree stands at the same depth
'or a little deeper than it was in
the nursery. Mix organic,
matter with the remaining
topsoil and add it in the hole in
layers so that lateral roots can
be spread horizontally. Firm
each layer of soil after it is
added to prevent settling.
Never add fertilizer in the
planting hole- it may damage
the root system.
Build a water holding basin
around the tree from leftover
subsoil. The reservoir should
be 24 to. 36 inches deep and
hold 10 to 15 gallons of water.
Apply a six inch mulch of
straw, leaves or old sawdust to
help conserve moisture and
reduce weed and grass compe-
tition.
It is important to prune one
half of the top of the new tree
immediately after transplant-
ing to bring top growth in
balance with the root system.
Young trees require more
attention than older establish-
ed trees. Watering is the
major chore for the first two .
or three years. Make sure
trees receive 10 to 15 gallons of *

It is particL larly gratifying to
me to be able 'to select such an
outstanding individual who also
has such deep roots in the
Second District of Florida.
In searching for a new ex-
ecutive direct or to replace Dr.
Harold Hanscon, who resigned
lat month to t becomee Provost at
Wayne Stal e University, I
reviewed rest times from dozens
of highly qualified individuals.
My choice e of Jesse Poore
was made pr marily because of
.hi outstand ng qualifications.
But the fact that I have known
and worked ovith him for years
certainly played a part in my
decision beca use I know that he
will perform ;n excellent job for
the committee a nd the country.
All oth-.r 'factors beipg
equal, the /fact that he' is in-
timately fa/ ilial- with our two
outstanding universities and is
known thr.bughcut the Second
District i4s an added bonus
whicn certainly' enhanced his
qualification in iny eyes.
1. *1*., .., .,

I vot ed last iNeek against a
Congre! sional piay raise.
An fautomaiic raise from
$60,.66'2 a year to approximate-
ly $77 ,000 a year would have
taken -place automatically if the
Hous e had not voted.
f a series of two votes I
vote d first to limit any possible
payj raise to 15 per cent
($66a,800), and then' toprohibit
an' raise at all. :
SI was on the losing side of
th e second vote which means
tf lie 15 per cent raise will
b becomee effective if the bill is not
E Amended in the Senate.

On Sex Charges


The City Commission is
considering purchase of a
large insurance umbrella
premium and re-fiewing an
electric franchise to Flo.'ida
Power Corporation three
years early.
The City thought it was
limited to $100,000 liability by
state law enacted some five
years ago. Cases in Florida
since that time indicates that
municipalities may not be so
exempt from liability after all.
One such., case is being
experienced right now by the
City of Port St. Joe in which
the fire truck was involved in.
an accident which resulted in
seriousinjury to a small child
and death to a man.,
. Prior, to passage of the state
law,' the City maintained a
large umbrella policy. to take
care of costly suits resulting
from liability to the city.

Either

Sex Deer

Hunt Jan. 9
.Hunters throughout Florida
are allowed to harvest "either
sex" deer throughout most of
the state on January 9.
The hunt will be allowed on
.all private lands within the
state except for the area of the
Everglades south of the Tami-
,ami Trail (U.S. Highway. 41)
lying east of the Everglades
National Park. Hunters using
land other than their own
should seek prior permission
from the property owner.
State wildlife management
areas are closed to the "either
sex" deer day in the Ever-
glades, Central, South and
Northeast Regions. In the
Northwest Region,. a' limited
number of management areas
will feature the hunt and
sportsmen are asked to con-
sult management area regula-
tions for details.
The 'daily bag limit for the
,deer (not including spotted
fawn) is, two, not more than
one of which may be an
antlerless deer or doe.
"The statewide antlerless
deer day is planned primarily
for people who do not have
access to antlerless deer per-
mits either because they have
small landholdings or cannot
for some reason hunt where
such permits are available,"i
said Dr. Allan Egbert, assist-
ant director of the Division of
Wildlife of the Game and
Fresh Water Fish Commis-
sion.
"The Commission already
has an antlerless deer pro-
gram. that deals with land-
owners 'who own or lease in,
excess of 150 acres," Egbert
said. He explained that the
special one-day hunt will be
allowed on any private land-
holdings without requiring a
permit. He cautioned that
sportsmen must obtain a
landowner's permission be-
fore going hunting.
The either-sex deer day is
scheduled January 9 as that is
the end of the white-tailed
deer season in the Everglades,
Central, South and Northeast
Regions of the state. Egbert
said that even though .deer
season will end January 30 in
the Northwest Region, the
either-sex deer day will be
held onh January 9 in that
region.
This is the first year the
Commission has sanctioned a
statewide "either sex" deer
day and it was important to
coordinate it with the date that
the season closed in most
areas of the state, the wildlife
official said:


Legally

Drive Carts
The Florida Highway Patrol'
has expressed concern for
underage drivers who will be
illegally and unsafely operat-
ing their newly acquired
Christmas, presents of. go-
carts, mini-bikes, mopeds or
motor scooters.
Robert A. Butterworth, Exe-
cutive Director of the Florida
Department of Highway Safe-'
ty and Motor Vehicles said;
"Florida traffic laws prohibit
the operation of such vehicles
unless both the driver and
motor vehicle meets all the.
legal requirements. This
means that your child cannot
legally drive a go-cart, mini-
bike, moped or motor scooter
on any road, parking lot or
other place open to motor:
vehicle traffic unless both the,
driver and. motor vehicle
comply with all traffic regula-
tions.".
To be legal, the go-cart
would have to be licensed and
equipped just as if it were a
full-sized car. The moped
must be licensed and meet all
the other requirements per-
taining to bicycles. The mini-
bike or motor sqootei must be
licensed and equipped .the
same as a full-sized motorcy-
cle and the driver of any
motorized vehicle must have a
driver's license.
"Parents or legal guardians
who knowingly permit their
child to operate a motor
vehicle illegally could be
charged with a misdemean-
or," said Butterworth, "but
worse than that, parents who
permit this may unknowingly
be contributing to the serious
injury or death of their child in
the event of a traffic accident
while the child is operating a
motor vehicle contrary to
traffic regulations which dre
designed to save lives ahd
prevent injuries."

ELECTRIC FRANCHISE
Jim Cox, manager of Flor-
ida Power Corporation office
here in Port St. Joe, asked the
Commission to consider re-
newing the utility's franchise
at a higher franchise tax rate
to the City.
"Cox said most of the fran-
,chises are now earning cities
six percent, while the Port St.
Joe franchise pays the city
only four percent. Cox said the
present franchise will expire
in 1986.
Mayor Frank Pate told Cox
the Commission would be glad
to hear the presentation by
Florida Power and consider
: placing the question on the
May municipal election ballot
for the people to express an
opinion on the new franchise.
Cox said he could have the
full package ready for presen-
tation at the February 15
meeting, which would give the
firm and the City Commission
time to ron out any problems
which may arise in plenty of

Important


Happening
In a poll of local Rotary
members last Thursday, the
opening of the Material Trans-
fer, Inc., plant here in Port St.
Joe was determined to be the
most important happening in
the county during the past
year. .
George Core, Mark Tomlin-
s"n, Bo Boyette and George
Tapper all said the coming of
the firm could mean consider-
able industrial activity for the
area in the years to come. "At
least three other large cities
-,who generate their own elec--
tricity are considering the.
switch to coal and using the
Port St. Joe facilities to' ship
their fuel into the state",
Tapper said.
Ohn the money side, Florida
Bank President, Ted Cannon,
said the interest picture for
1983 was just as uncertain at
'this' time, as it:was in 1982.
"Nobody knows' what it will
do: go up or down or both",
.Cannon said.
Dave May, the owner of a
new gray beard prophesied,
that we .would have a hard
winter, but his face would stay
warm. :
Guests of the club were

ama City and, Buck Fernan-
dez of Port St. Joe.

.7 ADD HAPPY 'NEW YEARS' W
TO YOUR LIFE A
There is really a double meaning in the old phrase-
"Happy New Year." For a new year can only be happy
if you are able to have good health. All other good
fortune is meaningless if illness prevents you from *
enjoying' it.
Happily you can do something about keeping up
your health. It is the simplest and easiest way to keep U'
any resolution you can possibly make. Resolve this &
year to consult your physician regularly. We resolve to
help by always having in stock the medicines he will
prescribe.
"A GREAT MANY PEOPLE ENTRUST UI
with their prescriptions, health needs and other
pharmacy products. We consider this trust a.
privilege and a duty. May we be your personal
