USPS 518-880 FORTY-SEVENTH YEAR, NUMBER 10 THESTAR Industry-Deep Water Port-Fine People-Safest Beaches in Florida PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA 32456 THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1983 20* Per Copy discrimination Notice Sent City Government Form Comes As Surprise to Commission, Clerk, City officials were startled at their regular meeting Tuesday night, to learn that a notice charging the City with employment discrimination had been filed against Port St. Joe by the Equal Employ- ment Opportunity Commis- sion office in Miami. Clerk Alden Farris told the Commission the first notice or evidence of the charge his office had seen was the notice which arrived Friday, in the mail, stating the City was being charged. "There was no specific incident on the notice nor have I received any notice of any incident or reasons for the ,filing", Farris said. "This notice tells you all any of us know about the charge. We don't even know if it is an actual charge or not." The notice, which is a form notice from EEOC, has two checks affixed to a multiple choice section as the reasons for the discrimination char- ges. According to the form,' the City is being charged with discrimination in hiring. and promotion. The complaint lists, Voters League c-o E. L. Fleming as being the complaining party. The order is signed by Federico Costales, District Director of the Miami office of EEOC . Attorney William J. Rish was instructed to find out what he could about the charge and find out if it is valid or not. The City had a similar charge filed against it by the Revenue Sharing Program a little over a year ago, but this charge was successfully de- fended by the Commission. Rish said there is a possi- bility the latest charge has stemmed from the charge a year ago, except that it is coming from a different federal office. INCINERATOR E. F. Gunn told the City Commission he had gone about as far as he could under his own expertise in determining whether or not the City's idle incinerator at the Wastewater Treatment Plant would handle the gar- bage disposal problem of south Gulf County. "I need some professional advice and help now and I need your approval to spend the money to get this help", Gunn told the Commission Tuesday night. Gunn said his findings have all been to the favor of the City and County having the answer to their disposal problems in the incinerator, but the final word and how practical it would be to adapt the piece of machinery to its- new task would have to be answered by an engineer familiar with the operation of incinerators. Gunn said he would like to secure services of an engin- eer he has worked with in the past to come look at the- facility. "I can get him for expenses, which shouldn't run over $1,000", he said. Gunn said such an inspec- tion could answer such ques- tions being asked by both boards concerning cost of operation, volume, amount of labor to be involved and other technical questions he can't answer. The Commission authoriz- ed Gunn to get the answers the boards and Gunn are looking for. SUMMONED The City Commission re- ceived a notice from the United States Environmental Protection Agency a week ago, instructing the Commis- sion to appear in their office in Atlanta next week to explain what was going on at the Wastewater Treatment Plant. The City has been under orders from EPA for the past three years to make certain changes in the plant's opera-- tion and some of these changes are currently near- ing completion. Another phase, dreding sludge from the settling pond, is about half finished. The letter from EPA says: "We are also aware that the city is making efforts to correct the problem but we Agreement was reached last Thursday between the City Commission of Port St. Joe and the Gulf County Commission on a price to be charged for treated water to supply the proposed Beaches system. Engineers have told the County Commission the cheapest and most depend- able treated water supply could be purchased from the City of Port St. Joe to supply the new million dollar system to be built next year. The County Commission is asking for a price to be charged for treated water in order to give residents of the Beaches area some idea of how much treated water from a central supply will cost the customer. Commission chairman, Everette Owens said it looks like the Commission will be able to offer up to 5,000 gallons of water in a system atia' c.st of .approximately $15.00 to $18.00 per month. "It'll all depend on how we handle the financial end of the project", Owens said. Port St. Joe clerk, Alden Farris told the County dele- gation their Oak Grove sys- tem is penalizing property owners since there is no provision made to require property owners of rental units to pay the monthly charge made to retire the construction bonds when the property is standing empty. "This means those who own their own homes must pick up the slack when it exists", he,said. Farris suggested the monthly bond payments be applied to the tax statement to require payment when the annual tax bill is paid. "This way, everyone would pay his fair share", Farris said. Owens and Commissioner Billy Branch said the Com- mission would definitely con- sider this avenue of payment but had not come up with a definite way of financing as yet. The system is to be built with a loan and grant pro- gram from the Federal Gov- ernment. WATER COST In the Thursday meeting, a representation from the Port St. Joe City Commission told the County group the City would give them a selling figure of $1.60 per thousand gallons of treated water; delivered to a master , meter. op.htsygte,,., Mayor Frank Pate told Owens, "If we can sell you water for less, we will do it. The figure are quoting you today is a maximum figure and could possibly be the figure in effect by the time you start buying water. We would rather give you a price we can reduce later rather than give you a price we would have to raise in a short while". The Commission just re- cently completed a cost survey of the expense of treating water in view of giving the Beaches system a price on water and for arriving at a realistic charge for city customers of the water system. Farris told the County group this figure came to $1.15 per 1,000 gallons for water at the plant. "By the time the customer gets it, that cost has increased to $1.45 per 1,000 and could go higher in the near future", Farris said. Mayor Pate told the County the City could not sell water to the Beaches for the same price as paid by city custom- ers since part of the system was built with ad valorem tax dollars and it wouldn't be fair to those who pay taxes in the City to subsidize water for those living outside the City. Pate advised the County Commission the City has requested an evaluation of the City's production poten- tia}, future needs. and plant capacity from the Northwest Florida Water District. ''Their report on our position to furnish treated water will have a big bearing on our dealings with the county", he said. Pate said he felt the report would be favorable, but to be on the safe side, any final decision would not be made until the report is in.

City Street Superintendent, Dorton Hadden said it appears as if the entire pier area will need to be shut down in the near future for some extensive repairs. "The whole area is getting pretty ram-shackled", Hadden said. "We need to do some repairing soon or the area could become dangerous." Cheerleader Bus Driver Hurt Port St. Joe's cheerleaders Were involved in an accident while returning home from the football game in Talla- hassee last Friday night. According to Superinten- dent of Schools, Walter Wil- der, there was one confirmed injury resulting when a bus carrying the cheerleaders overturned about 10 miles this side of Tallahassee. \According to Wilder, the Cheerleader sponsor, and driver of the mini-bus which was carrying the 14 students, received a broken arm. Mrs. Cliff Sanborn's arm was broken in two places. She was taken to Tallahassee Memorial Hospital for treat- ment after the accident. Wilder said Mrs. Sanborn was released from the hospi- tal and returned home Mon- day of this week. One student was suspected to have a cracked bone in his arm, but this had not been verified as a break at press time. Wilder said the accident report to the school reported the bus was meeting a truck on Highway 20 when the accident happened. The truck suddenly left the road and came to a stop on the shoulder with its lights shin- ing straight at the bus driver. Mrs. Sanborn started bring- ing the mini-bus to a stop and had nearly stopped when she saw a horse standing in the road. Braking and swerving the bus to miss the horse,' caused it to roll over and. settle on its side. The horse: was hit a glancing blow. All the students in the bus were given medical exami- nations following the acci- dent, but none were found to be hurt, with the exception of Mrs. Sanborn. Wilder said the bus was damaged but it can be repaired easily.

SEditorials and Comments THE STAR THURSDAY, NOV. 3, 1983 PAGE TWO Can't Borrow Out of) :" The news media has been running stories on the financial crunch which faces the "Third .World" and the affect this debt 'crunch will have on the rest of the world. The smaller and emerging countries are feeling the pressure Which falls on all of us when we are just starting out to develop a family, a home, or a nest-egg. It's bard and it takes all the money we ahn make to make ends meet until We get over that hump. One of the things which gets many of us into trouble is also getting some of these Third World nations into trouble. Their eyes and wants are bigger than their pocket- books and their ability to pay. : So, they borrow. And now that Inflation has been brought some- *hat under control, the ability to pay is not so good as it was once. -' We read statistics such as ~tazil owing some $90 billion' to foreign banks. Argentina is in hock . the same banks for $40 billion. Jirael owes $21.5 billion; the Phillippines, $18 billion; Chile, $21 llion; Venezuela, $35 billion; and Mexico, $15 billion. =" These are big figures, but &'thing like the figures we as &knericans are accustomed to walking about when we refer to the |- Signs , Crisp mornings and cool nights ae a sure sign that summer has iin its course in the Panhandle. Winter is standing in the wings just Waiting to catch us in its grips for a few months. Each and every year, we get plogriostications.,s ato just how serious, how cold or how mild the winter season will be this particu- i r year. We read where every sign is ied from the thickness of the bark ki the chinaberry tree to the color of the hair on the woolly bear Caterpillars. The caterpillar theory seems to draw the most believers. Next cmes the thick fur on squirrels, an increased frenzy of storing up food by wild critters and the thickness of the moss on the south side of trees. There are two guys from up in Lancaster, Pennsylvania by the name of Sam Taylor and Arnold Lueck whose pastime it is to look at all these signs of nature and follow the lore of the Indian to tell us we will have a wild and woolly winter ahead. They say the woolly 9ebt debt of our own nation. Just last week, it was an- nounced our TUnited States of America ended its worst year ever for operating in the red. We borrowed $202 billion to operate on for just last year. Add it up. The United States borrowed nearly as much money just last year, as all of these nations owe put together. There is one little difference. The money our nation owes, it owes to itself and to its people. Most of the national debt came from borrowing trust fund money, sell- ing bond, and money market certificates. The money owed by these Third World nations came from banks of other nations and is owed to them. In all likelihood, if you examine back far enough, most of the money owed by Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Brazil, Israel, Venezuela, and the Philippines, is owed to us, also. So, is the financial picture for the Third World nations dangerous to the United States? We think so; even more so that the increasingly large debt we owe ourselved. You can never borrow yourself out of debt, nor can you remain solvent while you carry a lot of notes for someone who cannot pay. of Fall bear caterpillars are the sure sign that a hard winter is on its way. According to Sam and Arnold the woolly bear caterpillars (or at least the Pennsylvania variety of woolly bear caterpillars, (have developed a furry coat which is Black at the ends with a brunette midriff, which is a sure sign of preparation for a hard season ahead. We think, from what we read of Sam and Arnold's predictions, that is was the brunette midriff which was the clincher. It seems that a brunette midriff is as sure a sign of a hard winter as one can get. If you see a woolly bear caterpillar here in Port St. Joe, look and see if he (or she) has a brunette midriff. We would like to know if our winter here is going to be tough enough to make extra special precautions for; such as buying a toupee to cover our -increasingly bare head. Or maybe we will just catch us up a mess of woolly bear caterpil- lars for warmth since they are already ready for what is to come. A MAN'S WORLD No Place Like Home BY SHAD PHANTRY I was having lunch with, man one day in Mobild; Alabama when the subject turned to the respective towns we lived in. He had recently moved to Mobile and I asked him how he liked living there. His reply was short and to the point. He said he liked it all right and his wife enjoyed the shopping malls and conveniences. He closed by saying that it was a heck-of-a lot better than living in Port St. Joe. After I cussed him out for the last two courses, I made him pay for the meal. And, I never invited him to lunch again! I'll be the first to admit that living in a small town has its disadvantages. In the same breath, let me say that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages by about a cord and a half of chopped oak wood. I don't believe I could ever be happy living in a large town again. Let me explain why. Shortly after moving to our town, our air conditioner went out. As luck would have it, it was on Friday night and just about the middle of July. The next morning I went to the local hardware to pur- chase a window unit, I thought, would sustain us through the hot week-end and, later, act as a back-up unit if the central unit went out again. When I made my selection, I was distressed to learn that it would take special wiring to run the unit. It was about eleven-thirty a.m. and the hardware closed at noon. The salesman-owner tried to find someone to wire it in for me but was unsuccessful. Final- ly, at noon he handed me a set of keys and told me if I could find someone to wire it in for me, I could just come by and pick up the unit and bring the keys to him on Monday morning. Can't you just see something like that happening in Mobile, Ala- bama? Late one night, sometimes later, my youngest son sud- denly became ill. After we had done all we knew to do, I called our doctor and asked him if he would meet us at the hospital or his office and examine him. "No," was his instant reply. "I'll be right over there!" And he was. If you can get a doctor in Mobile to make a house call, I'll buy you all the cocaine in Miami. There are other things, to be sure. I can call our druggest in the middle of the night and get prescriptions filled. The local police will watch my home while I am gone for prolonged periods of time; if Itask them to. I have never had to ask because I don't have anything worth stealing. If I ever do have anything, they will watch it for me. I certainly don't want to forget the local' bankers. They have been very gener- ous 'and -kind to me. As a matter of fact, they have been too generous. I don't know how I will ever repay them. They are probably wondering, too. There are many other Malone Named Florida Hospita Gulf Pines Hospital, Port St. Joe, a subsidiary of Baptist Medical Center is pleased to announce that Richard H. Malone, Execu- tive Director, Baptist Medi- cal Center, Jacksonville, was installed as Chairman of the Florida Hospital Association October 20 at the annual meeting of the statewide association of 220 not-for- profit, investor-owned and advantages we enjoy living here in Port St. Joe. The main one is our friends. Our town is like a large family; we have our disagreements but we are all in this thing together, and most of us love it. For those of you who enjoy the fast life and excitement of the big city I say, "more power to you and may you stay right ,here you are!" If you all moved to our town, we wouldn't be small anymore. And, there is always the chance that you might bring some Yankees here with you. P.S. I do not work for the Chamber of Commerce. Chairman of 1 Association governmental hospitals.

May Not be Best Place to Live But It Sure Beats Many Others ONE OF THE reasons a person can never live in Port St. Joe without atleast having fond memories about the place and what it has to offer those of us who live here, is the simple and unhurried life. Port St. Joe and Gulf County is just a good place to live and offers beauty and leisure activities which are unparalleled anywhere else if your taste in leisure happens to be just that ... leisure. .. Of late, we have started being 'discovered" by those who are loo g for exactly that leisure. It is beginning toseem as if there are more people looking for the leisure type life than there are looking for life in the fast lane. The numbers seem to be growing of those who desperately need to find a place where the traffic is numbered in hundreds of vehicles per day rather than thousands of vehicles per hour. Like Orlando. Or Atlanta. Or Miami. We will be very generous and let yqo have them if you want them. Even though the people there might make morvr money than we do here in Port St. Joe, we have more fun going it and more fun with what time we have left after we have earned our living. ++++ for the Gainesville, Georgia, "Times" who wrote a column in the September 11 edition of that paper entitled, "Port St. Joe Is A Better Place Than Panama". ETAOIN SHRDLU By: We BACK TO "BEING Discovered". Almost every week, there are new people moving into the area, building homes, buying property, looking for a little hide-away or a peaceful place to settle down. Some people are just looking for a place to relax, temporarily, while they spend time off the job. One such person who has "discov- ered" us is Don Otey, Outdoor Writer place to relax, unwind, pick up a scallop or two, enjoy some beautiful sunsets and look along a beach which hadn't been whipped to a frenzy by thousands of feet pounding up and esley R. Ramsey That's pretty plain language. Of course, we knew it all along, but likely those folks up in Gainesville, Georgia didn't know it until Don Otey told them so in his column. They had probably been coming to Panama City right regular, thinking it was THE place to go in the Florida Panhandle and just the right distance from Gainesville to be a fair drive. It seems Otey was looking for a down it all day long. We have just such a place right now. If people like Otey keep writing about us, telling what a beautiful and peaceful place it is, our beaches are likely to be one mass of footprints before long, just like the one at Panama City. OTEY STARTS OFF his column by saying, "I knew there had to be a better place. The night in Panama City had been miserable and depress- ing. It was a night spent in an asphalt paved campground and a morning heralded by exhaust fumes and the raucous sounds of rock music, the boardwalk, and tens of thousands of people crowding toward a minute strip of beach". "This was not the vacation that I had envisioned and the vacation was too brief, too precious, to be wasted. I knew there had to be a better place." "We drove the Gulf Coast until we reached a small town called Port St. Joe where the atlas indicated a state park nearby. The park was situated on a long narrow peninsula which jutted out from the mainland like a curving slender thumb. The road to the park seemed to end only half way out on the peninsula so it seemed like a good bet." a"When we reached the park, I got out of the car and crossed the dunes to the beach. Here the gentle 'surf caressed powdery white sand. There were perhaps a dozen people scatter- ed about the immediate vicinity and beyond them a seeming infinity of empty beach and limpid blue water. We had found a better place." Otey goes on to sum up his column by saying: "This area is truly a better place for those who treasure natural areas, but it is seeing the pressures of expanding population and other in- fluences of man. For sale signs have sprouted along the peninsula like Burma Shave signs, but the message they give is bleak rather than amusing. Paradise is soon to be lost." Otey may be taking a shot in the dark with this observation and just expressing his own desires in a vacation place, but evidence other than the sprouting signs say, he's right. Joe Crook, assistant administra- tor at St. Joseph State Park, the one which Otey is writing about, told the Rotary Club two weeks ago that St. Joseph had claimed to the fourth most used overnight camping state park in the state. That's a pretty good indication we are being "discovered". Ready or not, others are coming in droves to help us to enjoy our "better place".

Board Wants Action Would Force Treasurer to Write Expense Checks * The Dead Lakes Water Management board is just as determined to force secre- tary-treasurer Jerry Gates to carry out his duties as Gates is determined he will not act in the capacity of financial officer of the board until the courts decide whether or not they are a legal entity. Gates declared a few months ago he would not attend any meetings of the board or write checks for their expenses until it could be determined whether or not they were an official board. This fact came into ques- tion in July of this year when County Judge Jim Godwin of Calhoun County ruled the statute which created the board was unconstitutional. Gates has since asked for a court ruling on the matter, pledging to withhold any funds until the decision is made. Gates'. status is also in question since he is secre- tary-treasurer of the board under the same act which created the Dead Lakes to begin with. Under the act, the Circuit Court Clerk of Gulf County is the secretary- treasurer of the board, au- thorized to handle the finan- ces of the Dead Lakes Board. Three members of the board, Forest Revell, Har- land Pridgeon and William Linton, are at odds with Gates and the other two members of the Board, Tom- my Williams and Dr. Ray- mond Layne, about whether or not the Dead Lakes Dam should be removed perma- nently. Gates insists he will write no checks until the court acts and the three members are determined to take action to turn in an audit report on force Gates to pay for past expenditures. expenses of the board and to The fight goes on. State Will Buy MK Ranch Land A 1,063 acre parcel of MK Ranches has been added to the state's shopping list for the purchase of sensitive lands in the state. In drawing up a list of 28 items, the MK tract was number 16 on the list and has been added to some 7,700 acres already spoken for in the ranch tract, which is located in the Howard Creek area. The state and owners of the Ranch, signed an option contract Friday of last week for purchase of the additional land. Under the contract the state would purchase some 8,868 acres in three parcels which lie along and adjacent to the Apalachicola River. The purchase price has been set at $335 per acre. The MK Ranch lands be- came a target of state purchases some four or five years ago, when the state rescinded a permit and or- dered MK to tear down retaining dikes which kept the River from flooding the property. At that time, MK gave an ultimatum to the state to either allow the permit to remain in force so the land could be farmed, or the state should purchase it. The state has agreed to purchase the low-lying por- tion of the Ranch. The entire package should- cost the state of Florida some $2.97 million. MK has agreed to donate an additional 3,000 acres to the state if the main purchase is made through the CARL program, which would give the Ranch owners a tax benefit. The ranch property is- owned by Murff and Com- pany of Memphis, Tennes- see. OBITUARIES Mrs. Lillie Garrett, 79, Dies Curry Infant Taken by Death October 21 Allison C.

Notice (Continued from Page 1) construction and the prob- lems it is expected to correct had been filed with EPA for permits to proceed, so the City is at a loss to determine how EPA can fail to know what is going on. The letter gives the Com- Smission an audience wth John C. Lank, Environmen- tal Engineer with EPA on November 8. The request was turned over to the City's engineers, Jones, Edmunds and Asso- ciates of Gainesville, who answered by asking for a delay of the meeting until EPA could be informed by letter on what is happening at the plant. Jones, Edmunds was suc- cessful in securing a post- ponement of the meeting, .but not a cancellation. Rod Fuller, an engineer with Jones, Edmunds, said, "We will write them a full history of the work in pro- gress, what started it in the first place and what we hope to accomplish. Hopefully, this will answer enough questions that EPA will not require the trip to Atlanta." Fuller said the main rea- son for the letter, in the first place, was probably because a new man has taken over in Atlanta.

Prophetic Films to be Shown at First Baptist First Baptist Church has scheduled a "Prophetic Film Revival" for November 6-9, 7:00 P.M. each evening. There will be four feature length action packed films shown on consecutive nights. For the full impact one would need to attend all four, however the films are such that each gives a flashback from the one proceeding. "A Thief In The Night" will lead off Sunday, November 6. A very popular film viewed by millions deals with the coming of Christ. Thousands have been saved because of the witness of this motion picture. "A Distant Thun- der", a story of tribulation and the end times follows Monday, November 7. Then "Image of the Beast" Tues- day, and the very latest, "The Prodigal Planet" is scheduled for Wednesday evening. Everything is being done to make the showing of these films as effective as possible. Dual projectors will be used to eliminate changing of reels midway. The sound will be beamed through the sy- stem in the church allowing better quality. A nursery will be open for children through three years of age. A reminder that each of these motion pictures are feature length (ranging from one hour 18 minutes to two hours 17 minutes), so sche- dules can be made accord- ingly. Everyone is invited to attend each of the showings.

"America remembers and reveres her war heroes but forgets her peace negotia- tors. Yet what would it profit a nation to win a war and lose the peace?" Mrs. Nobie Stone questioned St. Joseph Bay Daughters of the Ameri- can Revolution in her ad- dress on the Treaty of Paris given Wednesday, October 19, at the Garden Center. This treaty, signed Sep- tember 3, 1783, ended the Revolutionary War. More than two years after the peace negotiations began (the Americans refused to compromise) on January 14, 1784, the treaty between the United States and Great Britain was ratified by Con- gress and the war formally ended. "The treaty gave the United States practically everything asked during the eight years of fighting. Bri- tain recognized the Ameri- can claim to territory as far west as the Mississippi, as far north as Canada and as far south as Florida. Ameri- can fisherman were to keep the right to fish off the coast of Newfoundland and the Mississippi River was to be open for navigation," Mrs. Stone explained. "Of all international settle- ments the 1783 Treaty of Paris has been the most lasting and has produced the greatest blessings for civili- zation. It gave America the opportunity to prove that a constitutional republic based on God-given rights can flourish and endure in a changing world- 'blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God' ", concluded the speak- er. Mrs. James B. Roberts gave the National Defense report reminding members that while the news media does not control what view- ers think, through the news programs and articles, talk shows, etc. they can control what is thought about. She deplored the number of states no longer teaching Americanism in the public schools. Florida schools do require courses in America- nism vs. Communism and Mrs.. Roberts requested members individually to urge legislators to see that these continue. Matrons Slate Installation The Matron's Auxiliary of Philadelphia Primitive Bap-, tist Church will hold its installation service on Sun- day, November 6 at 11:00. A.M.

R. Helm. Some types of seedlings sell for only $14 per 1,000. "We don't want to have a single seedling left implanted at the end of the winter because timber is a money maker for the landowner now and looks certain to be in the future." In recent years, the timber market has been a lucrative one for tree owners, with annual returns on investment of 15 or even 20 per cent being fairly commonplace. "There is money to be made in timber, for the heads-up landowner who pays attention to his busi- ness," Helm said. State nurseries near Chief- land and Pensacola have already sold more than two- thirds of their trees but have some 21 million left for landowners. These include some 12 million rapidly grow- ing improved slash pines, which will give a 15 per cent faster growth rate than regu- lar slash and are regularly sold. out year after year. Another much-demanded pine is the rust resistant loblolly, of which two million remain available. One mil- lion sand pine seedlings, an increasingly demanded tree, remain available, nursery operators said. The State Department of Agriculture nurseries also still have about three million' regular slash pines, three million regular loblolly pines and about 100,000 laurel oaks. Unexpectedly good germina- tion also resulted in a large inventory of more than one million dogwoods, planted as a major wildlife food tree in wildlands and a landscape tree in urban areas and on public lands. Sold out are red maple, sweet gum, sycamore, red cedar, live oak, and Virginia pine, which is grown for Christmas Tree farm plant- Trauma Care Seminar Gulf Pines Hospital of Port - St. Joe will offer a one day Seminar on November 19, from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (one hour lunch break, fur- nish your own).

Whatever Mike Pittman did on the day before the game with Florida High last Friday night, he should do before every game-and share his secret with the other members of the suc- cessful Sharks. The secret should make the Sharks unbeatable this year, as a team. Pittman was a one-man wrecking and scoring crew against the Florida High Demons in Tallahassee last Friday night, as he scored every one of the Sharks' points in their 20-13 win over the Demons. Pittman ran for 80 yards on 14. carries, scored three touchdowns, one two-point conversion play, intercepted two Demon passes-one for a touchdown-had three punt returns for a total of 95 yards and had 70 yards of returns called back (including a touchdown on the opening kick-off) by what both coa- ches agreed was some sloppy officiating. Pittman, who normally plays flanker and back-up runner for the Sharks, was pushed into the number one running post Friday night, while Coach Shaw Maddox had running back Josh Jen- kins'resting a tender ankle, injured the week before. Pittman made the most of the opportunity. In a preview of what was to come all night long, the officiating started off having an adverse effect on the game right from the outset. Pittman fielded Florida High's opening kick-off and returned it for a touchdown, only to have the score nullified when one of the referees said he saw one of PUT ON THE LIFETIME ROOHNGAND TAKE OFF $3.00 PER SQUARE.

Pittman then ran the ball across for two extra points. The Demons came back mid-way in the last period and pushed six points across on a busted play by Hunter Hughes. Quarterback Ronnie Mason juggled and dropped the ball on a snap from center. Hughes picked the ball up and galloped 63 yards for the final score of the night, giving the Demons 13 ' points for the evening, while the Sharks had 20. The Sharks had a scare with a little over two minutes to go and the Sharks with . fourth down on their own 48 yard line. The Sharks appar- ently had the down confused.

Willie Brown, Chris Con- nelly and Andrew Lee scored for the Tigers in the final period. The Gators' score came in the fourth period, when Todd Sterzoy squirmed through the line with a six-yard run. The Gators had one of their better offensive nights, with 11 first downs and 172 yards of offense. The Tigers had 364 yard 'of offense, but, had trouble putting their yards together in scores.

They .were described as 30 feet in width and three stories tall, with heavy use of granite on the first story. The long row of warehouses along the riverfront was an impressive first sight of the town to arriving visitors. Yet all these massive warehouses were inadequate to handle the volume of cotton passing through Apalachicola before the Civil War, and frequently the main streets were piled high with the overflow of bales of "white gold." Only two of these warehouses remain today. The Raney House- An impressive example of the Greek Revival style, built by cotton merchant David Greenway Raney in 1838.

A. 20/20 vision only means that you can see an object clearly from a distance of 20 feet. A good athlete needs many other visual skills as well, including clear near vision, depth perception, speed of recognition (how fast the' visual image is processed by the brain), quick visual reaction time, and good peripheral (side) vi- sion. A recent study of athletes and sports officials has shown that many athletes whose distance vision is clear are deficient in the other visual skills. How- ever, many of these skills can be developed. Some outstanding athletes have : done so! Q. Will wearing glasses interfere with playing baseball and tennis? A. If you see clearly with your glasses and are com- fortable with them, they should not inhibit your sports activities. But, as a safety precaution, make sure that the lenses are either scratch-resistant plastic or impact-resis- tant glass, in case you accidently get hit in the eye by a stray ball. Many athletes prefer wearing contact lenses. They don't steam up in hot weather, slip down your nose, or feel heavy. Contact lenses often provide clearer vis- sion than eyeglasses and, since there is no frame, there is nothing to in- terfere with peripheral (side) vision. Consider one of the new types of sports goggles for extra protection if you wear contacts or no glasses at all. Brought to you as a community service by DR.

It was sold after her death in 1914 to a doctor, who added an office on the north side. He sold the house in 1939, and it served as a boarding house until 1972.

Soldiers of the Confederacy are buried here, seven of whom served with BY ROY LEE CARTER County Extension Director Florida is one of the few places in our nation where it's possible to maintain green lawn year-round. But, to do this, we have to use special winter grass. This is because most of our perma- nent lawn grasses fade and lose their color in late fall. By the time the first frost occurs, most lawns have turned brown. So, to keep the lawn green, we must "over- seed" it. In this article I will address, overseeding your permanent lawn with a temporary grass, how to get it established and how to maintain it. My information for this article was provided by Extension Horticulturist Dr. Robert Black. Several cool-season gras- ses can be used for overseed- ing. But, the best one for Florida is ryegrass. Annual ryegrass is most popular because the seeds germinate rapidly, it grows fast, is ' fairly- inexpe i'and -is adaptable to a variety of growing conditions. It does well in sun or shade and it tolerates close, frequent mowing. If seeded heavily, annual ryegrass can provide a dense, beautiful winter lawn. Establishing a winter rye- grass is fairly. simple. The best time to do it is after the permanent lawn has been turned brown by frost. You'll have less trouble with plant diseases late in the fall, when temperatures are cooler. Start by mowing the perma-, nent lawn extra close and raking up all debris. Dethat- ching at this time is a good idea. But, if you can't de- thatch, at least remove as much of the dead. grass as you can with a rake, then the leaves, not the runners of the roots. Next, spread the ryegrass seeds. You'll need between five and fifteen lbs. 'per one-thousand sq. ft. If possi- ble, buy seeds that have been treated with a fungicide. And be sure they're fresh and weed-free. Apply the seeds with a fertilizer spreader. To get the most uniform stand of ryegrass, divide the seeds into two applications. Sow half the seeds in one direction over the lawn. Then, go back and sow the rest at right angles to your original path. After you spread the seeds, GOOD SEASONS to see your good neighbor agent CAR HOME LIFE HEALTH BILL WOOD 411 Reid Ave. 229-6514 or 229-6103 Like a good neighbor. State Faorm is there.

Chapman was also a botanist of inter- national eminence, whose most important work was the classics botanic cataloging, "Flora of the Southern United States," published in 1860. Sponge Exchange- In the last quarter of the 19th century, Apalachicola bene- fitted from a growing Florida industry: sponge harvesting. Although Apalach's sponge trade never approached the magnitude of Key West's, it was ranked third in the state. CARTER rake the lawn lightly, to help the seeds get through the permanent grass and make contact with the soil. Now it's time for watering one of the most important steps. The newly seeded lawn should receive light watering once or twice a day, until the seeds germinate. Keep the seeds moist, but be careful First Hunt Season Is Opening Shotguns, rifles and rap- tors will get a workout as. three hunting seasons open in the state on Saturday, No- vember 5. As the snipe season opens, hunters are to be reminded of the regulations for taking migratory birds. Shotguns must be plugged to a three- shot capacity. The limits on snipe are eight per day with a possession limit of 16. The snipe, season will close on February 19. Steel shot is not required for snipe hunting. Crow season also opens on Saturday, November 5. Hunt- ers may take crow with shotguns, rifles, pistols, bow and arrows and crossbows. There is no bag or possession limit. The season will close on January 8, reopening on weekends only from January 14 to February 19 and May 19 to October 21. Crows may also be taken out of season, without a permit, if they are causing damage to trees, crops, livestock or wildlife. Raptors (birds of prey) will be flying as the falconry season for snipe opens No- vember 5 and closes Febru- ary 19. Falconers may also take: mourning doves, white- winged doves, rails, galli- nules, woodcocks, ducks and coots during the regular open seasons. By 1895, between 80 and 120 men were employed in the sponge trade, and the city had two warehouses for selling sponges, one of which is still standing. John Gorrie Museum- Dr. John Gorrie settled in Apa- lach in 1833. One of his main tasks was caring for malaria patients. In an effort to cool the rooms of the fever-ridden patients, he built a "cold air machine," the forerunner of the compression refrigera- tor. By 1845 he had built a small machine that would produce blocks of ice. Dr. Gorrie obtained a patent on the ice-making machine in 1851, but never made any money on it- it sounded too fantastic to interest manu- facturers.' However, in 1914 the State of Florida, in recognition of his achieve- ments, placed his statue in the Statutory Hall of the Capitol in Washington, D.C., and his original ice-making machine is on display in the Smithsonian Institution. The Gorrie Museum in Apalach, opened in 1957, contains a replica of his first ice ma- chine, and clothing and arti- facts of Dr. Gorrie's time. Sea Dream- A 40-foot cruiser built in the 1920's, owned by W. F. Randolph of pot to overwater. Overwater- ing can wash the seeds away, and it may add to disease problems. Once the grass is well established, water as needed. The disadvantage of estab- lishing a ryegrass lawn. is that you'll have to fertilize' about once a month. The first time, use a complete fertili- zer, an 8-8-8 or 10-10-10. For all other applications use a nitrogen fertilizer. If you fertilize properly, the ryegrass lawn will grow quickly and you'll need to mow about twice a week. Begin mowing as soon as the grass is tall enough to be cut about one or two inches high. Finally, watch for a di- sease problem known as pythium (pith-ee-um), also called dampling off, or cot- tony blight. It seems to cause the most trouble on over- watered and over fertilized ryegrass, especially during spells of warm weather.

As usual, they have demonstrated their "JAWS" potential, and we are very, very proud of them. Port St. Joe's Junior High 7 football team defeated Apa- lachicola's Junior High team last Thursday evening at Shark Stadium by a score of 12-0. They will play Blounts- town this Thursday here at 5:00, so everyone try to come out and support our boys. We're proud of these fellows, as well, and all need to come out to support them this Thursday. The 9th grade has recently chosen homeroom represen- tatives. They are as follows: Laurie Butts, Teresa Can- non, Paige Johnson, Teresa Jones, Carrie Moore, Randi McClain, Nancy Stoutamire, and Tim Wilder. Congratulations are in or- der for the following Junior magazine salespeople: An- ette Minger, $50.00 prize; David Whiting, $25.00 prize; Richard Jackson, $15.00 prize.
