THE USPS 518-880 FIFTY-FIRST YEAR, NUMBER 25 STAR Industry-Deep Water Port-Fine People-Safest Beaches In Florida PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 16,1989 250 Per Copy County Joins Nation's Space Program Gulf Named Part of "Spaceport" Governor Bob Martinez announced Monday he will ask the Legislature to approve actions and ex- penditures in its spring session to lift Florida off into space on commercial ventures. Gulf county will be right in the thick of this new: venture, as space partners with Cape Canaveral, when he announced a proposed new commercial probe rocket launch site would be located at Cape San Blas, near Port St. Joe. Governor Martinez announced the local instal- lation, which is officially known as "Spaceport Flor- ida", is designed to be a part of developing the na- tion's first commercial launch facilities here as well as on Florida's Space Coast at Cape Canaveral. In his announcement, the Governor announced he will recommend legislation creating a Spaceport Authority to oversee the project and will include $10 million in his budget proposal for costs asso- ciated with the spaceport. The announcement was made in ceremonies at the Kennedy Space Center Monday. "When America enters the space commerce in- dustry, it should be from Florida," Martinez said. "Here in Florida, we are uniquely positioned to serve as America's launching pad. We have the time, we have the place, we have the talent and we have the resources. SUB-ORBITAL LAUNCH FACILITY The installation designated for Port St. Joe will certainly be no Cape Canaveral, but it will be the first step for the state to get into the commercial utilization of space technology. The Gulf county in- stallation will be a small sub-orbital launch facility for sounding rockets at Cape San Blas. _Governor Martinez directed the Florida Department of Com- merce to begin steps necessary to develop the facili- ,ty. Also in the plans is development of a primary Spaceport Florida facility to launch larger, orbital payloads in the Cape Canaveral area. The sub-orbital launches will be smaller rock- ets which will not be placed into orbit. The facility at Cape San Blas will also be small at first. Estimates from the Governor's office are that the site can be developed for approximately $200,000 and could be operational within 9 to 12 months. The site to be developed is on Eglin Air Force Base property, and will utilize former Air Force launch facilities, which are now idle. TWO YEARS OF PLANNING The Governor's announcement comes almost two years after he created the Governor's Commis- sion on Space to explore the feasibility of a Florida facility for commercial space launches. Federal space policy has since taken the government out of the market for launching commercial payloads into space, although federal funds may be available to cover a large portion of the costs of developing a commercial spaceport. Governor Martinez, who served last year on the federal Commercial Space Advisory Committee, met on Friday and discussed national space policy with Vice President Dan Quayle, who serves as chair- man of the National Space Policy Council. In an ad- dress to Congress Thursday night, President Bush reaffirmed his commitment to commercial uses of space. The Governor noted that Florida and the na- tion's space program have been closely linked for three decades and the state should move quickly to take the lead in the emerging commercial space in- dustry. The action Monday, committed the state of Florida to getting in on the ground floor of the com- .tiMercial space industry and placed Gulf county on not be very large at the outset, but it is on the the leading edge of the new industry, ground floor, so to speak, to grow with the commer- The facility to be built here in Gulf county may cial space industry in Florida and the nation. :- LIBERTY COUNTY K~.J CAPE " SAN BLAS Map of Gulf county coastline shows location of proposed space probe launch site. "Euranjo" comes in after arrest by Marine Patrol Clam Violations Two clam boats were appre- hended by the Florida Marine Pa- trol Sunday morning and their crews charged with illegally tak- fig clams from St. Joseph Bay, according to Marine Patrol Cap- tain Mike Sweet. Arrested were Timothy E. Watford, 221 Ninth Street, Port St. Joe, captain of the "Euranjo", a, 33-foot clam boat, along with his crew and Henry E. Darna, 115 Second Avenue, captain of the "Blue Eyes II", a 35 foot clam boat, and its crew. I The "Euranjo" is owned by Euranjo and Company of Port St. Joe and the other boat is owned by Harry C. Lawder, also of Port St. Joe. According to Captain Sweet, both boats and their captains and crews have been charged by the Marine Patrol with clamming in protected waters in St. Joseph Bay, taking clams illegally. The two boats had a total of 3,832 clams on board which were photographed for evidence and returned to the waters of the bay. Both the boats have been placed under constructive survei- lance by the Marine Patrol.

The new ordinance requires that pets be vaccinated for rabies and sets up a method of holding animals and fining owners who disregard the ordi- nance. The emergency ordinance re- sulted from a bone of contention which has occupied Commission- er Ed Creamer for the past three meetings.

Car Strikes 7-Year Old Girl at School A seven-year-old girl was in- jured Wednesday morning as she crossed the parking lot at the Port St. Joe Elementary School and was struck by an au- tomobile. According to Police Chief, Carl Richter, Patricia Hall of 209 iola Street, dropped her son and daughter off at 7:55 a.m., in the Elementary School parking lot. Richter said Mrs. Hall still had ,three children in the van with her, distracting her attention, when the accident occurred. The children had walked be- hind the van when the seven- year-old girl dropped her valen- tines. She bent over to pick them up. Mrs. Hall started to drive off, not noticing the little girl kneel- ing down near the rear of the ve- hicle. The van struck the child, but did not run over her, ac- cording to the police chief, who refused to release the name of the young girl at this time. The little girl sustained mi- nor cuts, bruises and scrapes and was taken to Gulf Pines Hospital where she was exam- ined, treated and released. No charges were filed in the incident. Fire Destroys Unoccupie Fire of an undetermined origin, completely destroyed the Good Spirits II lounge on Highway 98, west of Port St. Joe Saturday af- ternoon. According to Gulf County Sheriffs Department spokesman, Captain Jack Davilla, there is a possibility of arson in the after- noon fire which swept through the building, after starting from mysterious circumstances. Investigators from the State Fire Mar- shall's office were on the scene investigating early this week, but had not arrived at a determination as to how the fire started or if it was arson, at press time Wednesday. d Building on Hwy. 98 Davilla said appearances were that the fire started in the attic of the large building, which was last used as a lounge, but has been sitting idle for several months. Originally, the building was built for a bowling alley which operated for several years. Both natural gas and electrical service to the building had been cut off. The building was owned by Bruce Husband of Wewahitchka. The blaze drew the services of four county fire departments to keep the fire from spreading by protecting near-by buildings. Units from Highland View, Port St. Joe, St. Joe Beach and White City, re- sponded to the alarm. Editorials and Comments Against What? We suppose, that with some people, it hasn't quite regis- tered that 25 years ago a channel was dredged in St. Joseph Peninsula, on the shores of the bay and doesn't appear to have harmed the bay during these passing years. But, it is a fact for all to see. We must consider, also, that when channels were dug 25 years ago, there wasn't thought given for taking care of the en- vironment or the immediate surroundings. If you wanted a channel dug, you brought in the cheapest, most effective tool you could put your hands on and went to town, letting the spoil fall where it will. What we're saying here is that the channel was dug under very crude conditions, in contrast to the way channels are dug in this day and time. Still, we have a very productive bay here; one that a lot of people, including this writer, is interested in seeing remain pro- ductive. This writer doesn't necessarily think isolating the bay from all use is necessary to maintain that productivity, however. Again, we're not sure allowing unbridled entrance and use of the bay wouldn't harm it. We're no biologist, no engineer and no botanist. Neither do we belong to the Sierra Club. We're not at all interested in allowing anything to happen which would damage our bay. But, given the track record of the past 25 years, we thought those opposed to dredging out a boat channel in the bay had just as well forget the claim that it would damage the ecology. It hasn't in the past, so there's no reason to think it would in the future. Now, the damage more people coming to the bay would cause might be a viable argument and one which could be pur- sued. Everyone knows people are slobs when it comes to foul- ing up their environs. It would be hard to guarantee that people would take care of the waters of this bay or any other. The only point to consider, as we see it, is should we allow Langdon Flowers to provide another means of launching boats in the bay. Considering Flowers' past track record, we feel he would be as gentle with the bay as anybody could be if he were granted a permit to dredge the channel. He would certainly be more gentle than many other developers in the vicinity of the Big Bend. We need to make up our minds as to whether or not we're ever going to have another boat entrance to the bay. If we in- tend to at some point in time, we had rather give the permit to Flowers and let someone with proven environmental integrity do the job than to put it off and have some rascal get hold of one at some time in the future. So, if we're going to attack the idea of another boat slip in the bay, let's attack the idea and not Langdon Flowers. He has shown he is not here to rape our coastline and bay and doesn't deserve to have that reputation thrust upon him. Jim Looks Shady Did you see President Bush's address on television Thurs- day night of last week? Did you witness the honeymoon with ;the Congress still in force? Did you get the idea the president. 'was telling us he wanted America to become America again and not remain as something foreign to the past moral tone of this nation? Did you witness his determination to restore law and order to our land, punishing the evil doers and protecting those who behave themselves? Have you heard these things before? Nobody wants to be a pessimist this early in the game. But, all realists see a real need to adopt the national lifestyle the President was proposing. It IS time the nation became number one in the world once again, in commerce, living standard, manufacturing, production of vital goods. We have lived off the world too long. If we continue it much longer, the world will own us, body and soul. Of course, there was the obligatory follow-up message from the opposing party. This time House Speaker, Jim Wright and Senator Lloyd Bentsen did the honors, and were surprisingly conciliatory in their offering to work with the President to re- store this nation to its former glory. The only thing whick bothered us was Speaker Jim Wright. He seemed about as sincere as Yasser Arafat. Actually, we had rather buy a used car from Daniel Ortega than from Jim Wright, but maybe his words will bear more weight than his ap- pearance or the new reputation he is getting.

YOU LIVE WITH someone for a long period of time and you think you know them pretty good. Really, you know a friend for a long period of time and you have an idea you know his or her habits, likes and dislikes, dispo- sition, etc., almost as well as you know your own. One of the biggest surprises I ever had was to find out that my little brother really was conning me into doing something I wasn't supposed to be doing when it was my day to ride our joint bicycle. He was doing it because Momma would penalize me a day for mis- behaviour and let little brother have the bike for an extra day. All little brother had to do was to suggest going somewhere where the fun was going on, even though Momma had given the understanding it was beyond our range limits and he knew, since I had the wheels, I would go and later on, be penalized for it. I was set up in this manner time after time. After a while I realized little brother was more interested in having the bike an extra day than he was in me having a good time on the day it was my turn to ride. I HAVE LIVED wvth Frenchie now for some 43 years, give or take a few months, and I thought I knew her pretty well. I know that if somebody wants to get her undivided atten- tion, he or she merely has to mention flowers, or bushes, or trees, or shrubs, or vines, or any- thing that grows, and he has her listening to every word. I know that come spring, she will buy flowers and bushes, etc., by the dozens. Almost every day she will cart in something to plant and watch grow. We've long since run out of planting room, but that makes no difference. It's a flower, so buy! buyl buy! I know that on the dot of six in the a.m., regardless of what time she went to bed, Frenchie is going to hit the floor, running for the kitchen to light a fire under the coffee pot. She's a caffeine fiend. That's just part of her ritual. If the clock goes off, that's fine by her. But, if it doesn't go off, that makes no difference. Come six in the morn- ing, and her feet start swinging toward the floor. Don't you agree with me that there's something wrong with someone who gets up early, with no urging? I'M SURE YOUR wife [hus- band] is just as familiar to you. After a few years of being mar- ried, you get to know where the warts are, as well as the more en- dearing qualities. Sometimes. I get the Idea Frenchie thinks I'm more wart than I am endearing qualities, but that's another story. I know, for instance, that if we start on a trip, Frenchie will lie back on the passenger side and go fast asleep until the car stops. This is particularly irritat- ing from someone who barely sleeps six hours at night and never naps during the day. I know, that just as sure as I get in the shower to take a bath, it suddenly becomes necessary for her to wash dishes. She never washes dishes without lots of turning hot water on and off and you know what that does to showers. And to those trying to take warm showers. I also know she never forgets a birthday, or a special event. She is one of these people who knows when to remember anoth- er person with a special service, a little gift or some other example of special attention. IN SPITE OF knowing Fren- chie pretty good after all these years, I was, nevertheless, sur- prised by something which hap- pened the other day. Actually, I was flabbergasted and shocked. I saw an official-looking enve- lope lying on the table the other day, addressed personally to Frenchie and since we keep no secrets, I picked it up to see what it was, since I didn't recognize the return address. I opened it up and saw it was addressed to Frenchie Ramsey, and our address. Then the letter went on to say, "Dear fellow beer drinker of America ." I didn't even know Frenchie drank beer, much less belonged to the Beer Drinkers of America. I thought, all along, she felt as I did. They can pour all the beer back in the horse, for all I care. This letter was asking for Frenchie's help in influencing her Congressman to vote against a new tax being levied on beer. It went on to point out just how ex- pensive it would be to purchase a six pack or a case or two of beer "for those friendly parties" if this tax should pass. I have since been assured by Frenchie, herself, that she does not belong to the Beer Drinkers of America, nor has she changed her mind about the inappropri- ateness of ingesting beer. "They just got my name from some- where and I'm going to write my Congressman and ask him to SUPPORT the tax, just to get back at them for mailing me something like that!" I told you I know Frenchie af- ter 43 years, give or take a few months, of marriage. I figured she would do something like that.

As a matter of fact :it was at Ebbets Field where the good folks of Brooklyn out of re- spect began to refer to him simply as "'The Man". Good fans. When we took the field down by the pajama factory we were near about always Cardinals. You know what I mean? If I was the third baseman for the day, I'd be Ray Jablonski. If I played 2nd,: I was Red, of course, and if: I played 1st I was Stan. Listen, when I was Stan I even put my glove on the other hand and threw with my left. We were seri- ous about our baseball. When I moved to right field was the only time I wasn't a Cat- dinal. Shucks, everybody knows that in the early fifties St. Louis never had an outfielder who could throw worth a flip. When I took my position in front of that old wooden fence I became Carl Furillo. I use to work at it. When cotton was in and all the older boys were picking, Ricky Gene would hit balls off that wall, I'd race back, pick up the ricochet, wheel around and fire a one hop strike to Bobby at second base. We'd start about 9:30 and play until it got so dark Bobby couldn't see the throws coming in. As Carl Furillo I threw out routinely the likes of Richie Ash- burn, Eddie Mathews, Del Ennis, Ted Kluszewski me and Carl got'em all. And if I misplayed one and Mays tried to take an extra base, Ricky Gene would drop the bat, grab his glove and we'd nail Willie at third. I knew that wall like the back of my hand. Playing college baseball some 15 years later my coach often talked about how I threw so strongly and accurately from arty position on the field. God gave me the ability and Carl showed me how to use it. I'm eternally ri- debted to both of them. Now, Mrs. Furillo, as you must known, I never had the privilege of meeting your husband and I only got to see him play oir T.V. a few times when ya'll met' the dreaded Yankees in the World Series. But Harry Caray via radio' brought every Cardinal-Dodger game into our living room. What stars those "Bums" were Hodges at first, Robinson at second,Cox at third and "Pee Wee" at short. Campy was behind the plate and Snider in center. Shucks, they even had songs about "The Duke". The pitching staff had Don Newcombe, Erskine, Meyer, Loes, Preacher Roe and Clem La- bine. Roger Kash immortalized them as 'The Boys of Summer". Carl never got the "press" that most of the other fellows got. He wasn't first like Jackie, he wasn't the captain like "Pee Wee" and he didn't possess the grace of Snid- er. He wasn't colorful. But I'll tell you what he did he got the job done. His .344 batting. mark led the league in 1953, he ended up with a .299 lifetime average and the Dodgers won seven pennants while he was there. I respected Snider, Robinson and the rest, but I loved Carl Furillo. Remem- ber that time in September 1953 when Leo Durocher got to getting' on him from the Giants' dugout? Leo went too far. Now Carl didn't shout, finger point or jump up and down putting on a show. He (See KESLEY Page 5) THE STAR, PORT ST. JOE, FL THURSDAY, FEB. 16, 1989 PAGE 3A Shad SPhantry By Wendell Campbell To Men, Happiness Is... Some years ago happiness was relatively easy to find. Most men had rewarding jobs and loved to work. They also loved to participate in various hobbies such as fishing, hunting, playing golf and such. And there was always time, it seemed, to just relax and en- joy doing nothing but visiting with family and friends. Today things are somewhat different. Stressful jobs, high and complicated finances and a fast-paced society makes it dif- ficult to enjoy the finer things in life. Still, there is hope. Men today-at least some of them-still know how to enjoy life and what it has to offer. To some of the men today, happiness is: Coming home from a vacation rested. Catching fish on a rainy day. An income tax refund check that his wife doesn't know about. Shooting a bad score in golf and winning money. Gas left in the tank after his son or daughter has used the car. Eating cake and ice cream after dinner and not worrying about his weight. A nap after lunch. Wake up feeling good in the morning. Hot coffee and a good newspaper on a cold., winter day. Someone saying his son looks just like him. Someone saying his daughter looks 'Just like her mother, thank goodness!" Having a wife that catches other men's eye because she looks better as each day goes by. Someone raising the bet when he has four-of-a-kind. A pretty, sexy young lady telling him that she likes older, sophisticated men. Enjoying his job, the town in which he lives, loving his family and friends and being at peace with the world and him- self. With a few of these things, could a man not be happy? and especially the last one, how Explains Monument's Position Dear Editor. During the Sesquicentennial Celebration Ceremonies at the Monument, several people asked why the,Monument faced East in- -' stead of West towards the bay. When the Monument was erected in 1922, it was thought it should .face the road (Old Shell Road) that went from Port St. Joe to Ap- alachicola. Highway 98 was not built at that time. Monument Av- enue is on that .roadbed. While driving South on Monument Ave- nue when you cross the bridge on Patton Bayou, if you look straight ahead on thq Catholic Church property you can see an opening in the trees that was ,Old Shell Road. It passed in front of the Opposes Marina Dear Editor: As a property owner on St. Joseph Bay and a. lover of God's gift of this beautiful bay and the life within it, we wish to raise our voices loudly (scream if you wish) in opposition to the proposed building of a marina and golf course thereon. Several years ago we discov- ered this area and fell in love im- mediately because it seemed to be the last virgin bastion on the en- tire Florida coast. We thought it would so remain because of its delicate state and importance as a "barrier island". Please, please don't allow man to continue to spoil this for a few bucks and .a moment's pleasure. Rather, consider the long- range implications for the area and not only this geographic area but ,the world as this bay is the "nursery of the sea" and spawns billions of offspring that travel to the sea making food and many qther useful purposes in our sys- tem. Listen, please listen to the documented scientific studies which have already been made and cases proved time after time. Look at history. Don't let this area become the "cesspool of the sea". Sincerely yours, Herbert Law, Jr. and Margaret Raughton Birmingham, Ala. Monument and continued on thrQugh what is now Oak Grove and on to Ap'alachicola. The George Patton House where Tal- madge Kennedy now lives wasithe_. only house there at that time, 1922. Further back North on Monu- ment there is a drainage ditch on the South side of the Florida Na- tional Bank Building. This was the drain from a spring that is under Monument Avenue be- tween the bank and Hardees and was known as Knight's Spring. People travelling through this area would try to reach this spring to camp so they could have water to cook with and wa- ter for their horses or oxen. Chances are this spring had some influence on Mr. T.H. Stone building his turpentine still near- by in 1904. My great grandfather, William Sanders Maddox and some of his friends would come over here from Apalachicola and camp at Knight's Spring to hunt deer, wild turkey and fish for speckled trout in the bay. During this time there were wild chickens on Black's Is- land and they were referred to as Knight's chickens. Occasionally people would go on the island to shoot the chicken for food. Un- doubtedly, there was a man named Knight who had lived in this area many years before. Sincerely, Dave Maddox Misunderstood Dear Editor: In the February 9 issue of the Star, your article on the proposed boat channel either missed my discussion with the Planning Council and Mr. Ross McWil- liams, or misunderstood the point I was trying to make. Surely, Mr. Flowers and Mr. McWilliams doesn't think the peo- ple on the Planning Council or the people of Gulf County be- lieved that story about them building a boat ramp to accom- modate a couple of boats a week- end for his friends and guests. I was merely' pointing out that there is already a boat ramp lo- cated, less than a mile from the City Appreciates Planners Presented with Plaques Mayor Frank Pate presented plaques of appreciation to Mrs. Charles Clardy, center and Mrs. Charles Brown, right, at the City Commission meeting last Tuesday night. Mrs. Clardy and Mrs. Brown were presented plaques for directing the Sesquicentennial celebration here in Port St. Joe in December. Mayor Pate remarked that Mrs. Clardy did most of the*"planning almost single-handedly and deserved the thanks of the city and its residents. The Sesqui- centennial marked the 150th anniversary of Florida statehood. City Commissioner Emily Roche, center, and Rev. Ennis Sell- ers, right, were also presented plaques of appreciation Tuesday of last week for their active part in the city-wide Beautification Com- mittee during the past year. Rev. Sellers is chairman of the com- mittee and led his group in several projects designed to clean up eye-sores in the city and keep them clean. Mrs. Roche played an active part as a member of the committee and also in personally directing much of the clean-up activities in the downtown area. Citizen's Federal Is A Sound S&L Declaring that Citizens' Fed- eral Savings and Loan Associa- tion isn't one of the thrift associa- tions causing the federal government trouble these days, Greg Johnson, president of the proposed marina site, and it doesn't need dredging because it's a natural deep water harbor. I find it hard to believe a man would spend the amount of mon- ey it would take to dredge a chan- nel just to accommodate a couple S.of boats a, weekend unless there was some payback involved. I know it would be less trouble and a lot less expensive to use the marina located in the State Park. Surely Mr. Flowers has other plans in mind. So why doesn't he let us see them? As for the statement fewer landings discouraging the influx of boaters to the bay. Why build more boat ramps when eventually you're going to have. to regulate the boat traffic or size of motors in order to preserve the bay which is the main problem. As I'm sure you well know, a boat will only hold a certain load be- fore it sinks. The Bay is no differ- ent, it will only accommodate so much before harm is done. Jimmy Cox 'Poor Wendell!" Dear Editor. With reference to the "Shad Phantry" column in the February 9 edition of your newspaper, the first comment which came to my mind was "POOR WENDELL"! His humorous suggestions re- garding establishing reverse roles at his home were thought provok- ing if not pathetic. Perhaps his ir- rational thinking can be attribut- ed to the "professional cologne" he was wearing at the City Hall on Tuesday, the 7th. I got a whiff of it and can guarantee if he splashes, himself with it to greet "Mrs. Wendell" when she arrives home, she won't be able to grumble. In fact, it could take her breath away - permanently. For the record, may I add - we like the Campbells. As south- erners say, "they are good peo- ple." Yours very truly, Marjorie Parker Port St. Joe local institution told Rotarians what was causing the problem across the country and his opin- ion of steps being taken to solve the problem, at their regular meeting last Thursday. Johnson said most of the problem thrifts were in Texas, Florida .and Colorado, and their problems were due to a multitide of reasons. "First let me say that of the 3,000 savings and loans -in the United States, 90% are sound and solvent. Only about six insti- tutions are causing one quarter of the problems to the country and about 25 are accounting for half the problem associations. The rest are sound and looking out for the interest of their inves- tors." He said the sound thrifts are responsible for making $1 trillion in home mortgages, accounting for 44% of the family dwelling loans made in the nation. CAUSE OF PROBLEMS There are two basic causes for the much-publicized problem Swith- thrifts today; "These prob- lems didn't start yesterday," Johnson said. 'They started back in 1979 and have been allowed to go unattended until just recently. Now, if the problems aren't solved, they can amount to some serious financial trouble in our nation." Johnson said the prime caus- es for problem thrifts is lending practices which resulted from de- regulation. "In this situation, thrifts which were failing, made wild deals -for savings money, paying unrealistic interest rates. They didn't care, since they were failing anyhow, and would do anything to keep money in their accounts." He said the situation also made it possible to make margi- nal loans on projects which should have never been ap- proved. "Out in Texas, there are whole communities standing va- cant, which were financed by S&L's. They were foreclosed and sold at ridiculously low prices to members of the S&L's, relieving them of the foreclosure on their records in the process. Other loans just shouldn't have been made and have resulted in failure Aof payment schedules in the pro- cess." The other prime cause of fail- ure was fraud. Johnson said the president's proposal contains $50 million to be used solely to prose- cute those'who were responsible for shady dealing with S&L de- positor's money. NO SURPRISES Johnson said he could fore- see no catastrophic things hap- pening to S&L's in the near fu- ture. "First, the president's bail- out package must be approved by Congress to become law and who knows what Congress will do?" Johnson said he felt a tight- ening up of rules and regulations under which the thrifts operate would become a reality. "Nobody 55 and retired? Allstate announces discounts on home and auto insurance. Allstate believes that retired people, aged 55 and over, are better insurance risks. That's why we now bring you a 100% discount on home (Homeowners, Renters, Condo) insurance, and another discount on auto insurance.

"For your information, Citizens' Feder- al has better than seven percent of equity on hand." The local thrift president of- fered the opinion that just the at- tention being called to the failing thrifts will cause people to be more choosy about which insti- tute they trust with their money. Card of Thanks We, the family of the late Da- vid Barfield, would like to express our many thanks for the thought- ful expressions of sympathy each of you showed during the recent loss of our loved one..

KESLEY COLBERT PROPERTY APPRAISER Office: Gulf County Courthouse 1000 Fifth Street Port St. Joe Telephone: 229-6115 12 A lt 92 A I THE STAR, PORT ST. JOE, FL THURSDAY, FEB. 16, 1989 County Opposes Permit at White City late last week. when a shrimp boat tied to the dock, sank, causing an environ- mentally dangerous oil spill. The shrimp boat, owned by Dennis Walden and Charney Best of Carrabelle, drew Creamer's at- tention even more forcefully, when he realized the two com- mercial boats presently tied to the docks were owned by out-of- county people. Creamer re- marked, "They just pulled them up to our docks, tied them up and went homer " The Carrabelle boat was still In: the water Tuesday, even though the DNR and the Coast Guard had enlisted the help of the owners to clean up and con- tain a quantity of diesel oil escap- ing from the sunken vessel, which is lying in the edge of the canal with about four-fifths of its hull under water. .. Salvage operations were started Tuesday, but the boat ias still sunk at press time Wednesday. The emergency ordinance would make it illegal to tie up a commercial boat at the White City park unless it is an emer- gency situation. Boats have historically been taken to the White City basin duringg pending hurricanes, which, apparently, form the 'emergency" clause written into s i the ordinance. CABLE TV FRANCHISE Multi-Vision Cable TV. which has been under fire under present and former ownership for what has been termed as failure to provide proper service and give prompt attention to complaints, had its 15 minutes before the Commission Tuesday. Terry Messner defended his company, saying it was respond- ing to complaints since it as-* sumed ownership late last year and has spent "a lot of money" in making changes and upgrading the system. Messner identified his compa- ny as one of the "30th largest cable TV companies in the nation with a good reputation industry- wide" said granting another fran- chise to ACT of Mexico Beach, S would cause the area to be over- sold and result in higher prices for cable service. SMessner was using a sched- S uled public hearing as his forum for defense of his firm, claiming his company was not invited to S the hearing. i One of the main complaints S o f MultiVision and its predeces- S, sqrs is that it has befuiunrespon- sihe to complaints or in answer- ing questions in the past. One of ACTs biggest selling points in their request for a fran- chise to operate in Gulf county has been that they will have peo- ple stationed in the county to an- swer complaints and give service. Owner Frank Briggs and at- tmrney Allen Hess, speaking for ACT, again said they would im- niediately put up a service from the Bay county to the Franklin line and would move into the We- wahitchka area if they had en- couragement and ,a franchise ap- proved by the Wewahitchka City Commission. , Briggs emphasized, "There will be a 'warm body' for you to tlk to in case of a need for ser- vice." The Board tabled their deci- sibn on whether or not to grant S.

Fees During the decades since World War II various Navy wom- en's organization have been formed on a local basis around the U.S.A. Then in 1979 three for- mer Navy women in California chartered the non-profit organiza- tion of Waves National, so called to honor the more than 150,000 Navy women who proudly bore that name. Since then, they have chartered more than 57 Units and have over 4,000 members across the country. Their objec- tive for the next two years, 1988- 1990 is to form 100 Units with 10,000 members, and Units in every state.

And especially to enjoy the camaraderie of being the 'Women of the Greatest Navy on Earth." Through their national maga- zine, The White Caps, they keep in touch and locate former ship- mates, as well as share mutual concerns and information. Through their local Units they participate in activities such as sponsoring newly enlisted Navy women, giMing service to women veterans in VA hospitals, nursing homes or at home and socializing at luncheons and on day trips.

FL THURSDAY, FEB. 16, 1989 It seems to be a well documented fact that the Father of the United States, George Washington, had to make do with an uncomfortable set of wooden teeth. But, in those bygone days, most all dentistry was a hit and miss proposition and a trip to the dentist was truly an unwelcome experience. Modern dentistry is something else, and during the month of February the public spotlight is on the maintenance of good dental health.

Child Passenger Safety Week The Florida Highway Patrol announced that February 12-19 has been designated as "Child Passenger Safety Awareness Week". The program is cospon- sored by the National Passenger Safety Association and the Na- tional Highway Traffic Safety Ad- ministration. The focus of this week long campaign is to increase public awareness of the need to properly restrain young children. The goal is simple: reduction of trauma re- lated deaths and injuries of chil- dren over six months of age, proper use of child safety seats could save as many as 500 lives each year and prevent another 53,000 injuries. Director Bobby R. Burkett of the Florida Highway Patrol said, "By taking a few minutes to prop- erly restrain small children, Flori- da motorists can clearly prevent many of the tragedies associated with traffic accidents." "Violations of Florida's Child Restraint Law will be strictly en- forced by members of the Florida Highway Patrol," added Burkett. Anyone seeking further infor- mation concerning the proper use of child restraint devices is en- couraged to contact the nearest office of the Florida Highway Pa- trol. Rams winning, 84-60.

JOE, FL THURSDAY, FEB. 16, 1988 Give Some Thought To Seeds For Wider Varieties In Your Spring Gardening Activities By Roy Lee Carter County Extension Director Don't sell seeds short! Espe- cially if you're planning a large vegetable garden. In past articles I have talked about the pros an cons of beginning a garden with transplants, which give you a faster start, but can be expensive if you need a lot of plants. In this article I will discuss planting seeds first directly in the garden. .My information was provided by Extension Vegetable Specialist, Jim Stephens, of the University of BIBLE STUDY. ....... MORNING WORSHIP . CHURCH TRAINING.. Florida's Institute of Food and Ag- ricultural Sciences. Besides costing less than transplants, a major advantage of starting a home vegetable garden directly from seeds is that you can choose from a wider selection of varieties. A garden center may have several varieties of seeds for a given crop, but only one or two varieties of transplants. Also, some crops such as beans, corn, cucumbers, and turnips don't transplant very well. It's best to start these from seeds. On the We Want You To Be Part of the Friendly Place 9:45 a.m. EVENING WORSHIP ..... 7p.m. 11:00a.m. WEDNESDAY ......... 7:00 p.m. 5:45 p.m. Roy Lee Carter other hand, many crops do trans- plant well. They include things like tomatoes, broccoli, collards, and lettuce. If transplants are available for such crops they're probably a better bet than start- ing from seeds unless you're planning a very large garden. While most vegetables can be grown from seeds, there are ex- ceptions such as sweet potatoes, Irish potatoes, and strawberries. For specific recommendations on crops you want to grow, check with your garden center, Or see. your County Extension Agent. If you decide to start from seeds, get the best you can find. Seed quality could mean the dif- ference between success and fail- ure in your garden. So, always buy good seeds from a reliable dealer. For a few crops, you can save seeds from your garden. But, for many others that really isn't practical. Since most seeds are relatively inexpensive, you're probably better off buying those you need, if they're available. You should buy tested seed varieties. IFAS scientists test most crop varieties, and recom- mend only those which do well here. You'll have the best chance for success if you plant varieties with some resistance to common Florida pest varieties recom- mended in Extension Circular 104. "The vegetable Gardening Guide." It's -available at your County Extension office, and many garden centers have refer- ence copies. Of course, you can plant anything you like. But, many gardeners cheat them- selves by continuing to plant infe- rior types, without even trying those that grow best in our state. There is one note of caution to keep in mind when handling seeds. Most of the seeds you'll find at garden centers have been treated with chemicals, to. re- duce injury and decay caused by insects and diseases. Usually, you can tell seeds have been treated, because they're coated with brightly colored dye. It's a good idea to use treated seeds. In fact, you should always use them, when they're available. But, remember that the chemi- cals on such seeds are poison- ous. So, treated seeds should never be eaten by people or ani- mals. They should be handled with care; and be kept out of the reach of children and pets. Finally, follow the planting di- rections on the seed packet. If you plant too deep, the young plants may not be able to reach the soil surface after sprouting. If you plant shallow, the seeds may be washed away by rain. DANIEL W.

A Portrait of Paul Revere By Brigette Elizabeth Godfrey In April of 1775, the British General Gage ordered Francis Smith to gather seven hundred British soldiers. They were to bomb all supplies gathered in Concord by the colonists and to arrest Samuel Adams and John Hancock. Smith's orders were suppose to have been kept a se- cret but the colonists found out about them. Paul Revere and Wil- liam Dawes were sent to warn Concord, Samuel Adams and John Hancock of the danger. A signal was to be given by Revere; two lanterns in the Old North Church meant the British were coming by water and one lantern meant they were coming by land. Paul Revere then rode to Lexing- ton to warn Hancock and Samu- el. He then continued with Wil- liam Dawes to Concord. However, Revere was captured before he could reach Concord, but his oth- er companions escaped. He was soon released and fled to safety with Adams and Hancock. Revere would then return to Lexington to rescue Important papers of John Haneock. Thanks to the efforts of Paul Revere, the Minute Men were waiting at Lexington when the British arrived on April 19. Paul Revere has contributed much to the building of America. From his silversmith talents to his midnight ride, he has always exhibited love and courage for his country. Paul Revere has been immortalized by tl low. Listen my ch you shall hear Of the midnight Paul Revere.

My last two articles on the modern translations of the Bible brought out some very interesting comments and correspondence. Those responses could be cate-, gorized as having their origins in Fundamentalist, Conservative, or Liberal philosophies. That gave me the idea for today's theme. To- day I want to ask, "Where are Christians coming from?" Modem fundamentalism has its roots in a book by Hunnius in 1623. Hunnius was a German who wrote on the fundamental differences between Lutheran and Presbyterian theology. His staunch stand for Lutheran Or- thodoxy created an ecclesiastical split. "In the heart of downtown Simmons Bayou" Everyday Our Goal Is to Low Prices Serve the Public Fundamentalistic controver- sies are not new to Christianity. St. Paul had a few things to say to the Judaizers of his time con- cerning their unyielding attitude toward his generous relaxation of Jewish fundamentals. Other primitive Christian writers influ- enced the subject as well (see Acts 15). Somehow, the Church has survived all of our differences of opinion. The basic idea behind funda- mentalism is that there are cer- tain doctrines, or teachings, which are mandatory for salva- tion. And that there are other doctrines that are incidental to salvation. Some theologians who thought this was an important is- sue got together at the Niagara Conference in1895 and agreed on five doctrines that were seen as essential to salvation. They were the total inspiration and inerran- cy of scripture, the deity of Jesus, the virgin birth, the substitution- ary atonement, and the physical resurrection along with the pre- millenium second coming of Christ. Since that time different con- ferences have made ,different lists of necessary doctrities. As I un-. derstand'lt, the one thing that all of the contemporary fundamen- talists agree on is that liberalism is wrong. It is obvious to the experi- enced reader that I am writing aphoristically, so I will recom- mend that you read books like The Fundamentalist Phenome- non, by J. Falwell or Fundamen- talism and The Word of God, by J.I. Packer to get the complete, authoritative view of the subject. Conservatives are a little harder to reduce to a simple aphorism because they don't go around having conferences and authoring doctrinal statements. For the most part they are folks who are happy with the way things are and they are not going to support change. They don't want, to change because they see themselves as being among the privileged. For them it would be dreadful to slip a notch or two, so they struggle to maintain the status quo. Yet, they are not rig- id. They will accept change if they think it is pragmatic or practical, and if it does them some good. Liberalism may be defined as an appeal to humanity. It does not relate to classes, religions, property interests, or racial groups. That is why the fabulous- ly wealthy, Roman Catholic, Ted Kennedy can campaign for a black Baptist preacher like Jesse Jackson. Religious liberals, like political liberals, argue that indi- viduals have natural rights sim- ply because they are human. These philosophies are not al- contact lenses?

Space allows me only one example of how these world views control our thinking, but you can apply the principle to nearly every contro- versial issue. Here is an example of how our thinking is conditioned by these philosophies. The Funda- mentalist says that abortion for any reason is murder. The Con- servative says that abortion should only be allowed for incest,, rape, and life threatening situa- tions. The Liberal says that an unborn baby is not human but the mother is, and she has a right to do as she pleases with her own body. In my opinion, none of these groups are entirely trustworthy because they are all prone to ob- scure the facts that do not sup- port their personalized views of ; reality. ' - None, of these philosophical a stances is Christian. They all can be traced to intellectual concepts that were around before Christ appeared on earth. They are polit- ical and ethical statements. They belong to the realm of sociology more than they do to religion. Even so, every modern religion' has devotees to each of the three viewpoints. The amazing thing .is that Christians often defend ' these worldly mind-sets, even when they cause schism within the family of God. If I prciperly grasp the words of our blessed Lord in John 17, this is contrary' to his will. My question remains 'unan-I swered, "Where are Christians , coming from?"
