TED's Don't Work!


Local shrimpers say a requirement
that they use the controversial turtle
excluder advice will not save sea turtles
from extinction and will have the effect
of virtually putting them out of the
shrimping business.
Edward [Buddy] Wood, told The Star
this week the devices are now required
on every practically every boat which
drags for shrimp in Florida's waters.
The only exceptions are those boats
which operate in enclosed bays, such as
St. Joseph Bay, with boats of 25 feet in
length and less. "This requirement by
the state of Florida is putting us out of.
the shrimping business, locally," Wood
said.
Wood and his family have operated
a wholesale shrimp business here in
Port St. Joe on the Gulf County Canal
for many years and are not novices to
what will work and what will not work
in the shrimping business. "These TEDs
will not save turtles and they will not al-
low the shrimper to catch shrimp,"
Wood said.
At the present time the shrimp are
running close to shore. 'We have tried
dragging 10 1/2 miles out, in waters
controlled by federal rules and regula-
tions, and there are no shrimp there to
catch at this time," Wood pointed out.
Federal rules and regulations are
different from Florida requirements.
Federal regulations will allow shrimping
in federal waters, without the TEDs,
linmting drags to 105 minutes to avoid
drowning turtles which may become
caught in the nets. Only Florida re-
quires TEDs at this time.
'That alone should prove to people
that TEDs are either useless or suspect-
ed of being so. Only Florida requires
-their use and other regulators of salt
water fishing have not approved their
use even though they have been under
pressure from environmentalists to do
so," Woods said. "If they were the an-
swer to protecting turtles and allowing
the shrimper to operate, everyone would
be requiring their use."
FILL UP WITH GRASS
The main gripe the shrimpers have
with the TEDs isn't that they reduce the
shrimp catch by five or ten percent. "In
these waters, they reduce the shrimp
catch to zero," Wood said. "Seagrasses
fill up the entrance to the TED and the
net pocket in just a few minutes and
will not allow either a turtle or .a shrimp
to enter."
As far as the need for any turtle ex-
cluding device is concerned, Wood said
he has men working through his
shrimp house, who have operated
shrimp boats for as much as 10 years
and have never caught a turtle in a net.
"None of our boats have caught a single
(See TED on Page 3)


'We have shrimpers who have worked these wa-
ters for 10 years and have never caught a turtle in
their nets. None of our shrimpers have caught a
single turtle all this year. .. We're willing to use
anything that works to protect the turtle."

Nelson Is First Up On Gulfs Political


City Is "Going



After" Proposed



Power Plant

Take Lead In Making Personal

Visit to Florida Power Brass


Port St. Joe will officially go
after the proposed Florida Power
Corporation power generating
plant which will be built on the
firm's system prior to 1997.
Mayor Frank Pate remarked
Tuesday night, at the City Com-
mission meeting, "Florida Power
promised Gulf County 12 years
ago that their next generating
plant would be built here and we
need to officially remind them of
that promise and make a promise
of our own to help them in any
way we can."
The Mayor and the City Com-
mission concurred that the thing
for the City to do is to make per-
sonal contact with the top brass
of Florida Power and express the
interest of the city and the
county in having the plant built at
a site proposed 12 years ago near
White City on the bank of the
Gulf County Canal.
'We need to get together a
delegation from both cities in the
county, the county commission,
the chambers of commerce and
make a trip to St. Petersburg to
meet with the top officers of Flori-
da Power and promote our
county," the Mayor said.
Attorney William J. Rish ad-
vised the Commission, "If you
want it, you need to go after it
and let them know you want it."
Commissioners Bill Fleming,
James Roberts and Edwin Wil-
liams were the only other com-
missioners present at the meet-
ing Tuesday night, but they con-
curred with the thinking of Mayor
Pate and offered to be a part of
the personal contact and pledged
to make themselves available for
the purpose of selling Gulf
County to Florida Power.
In effect, the Commission is
going to spearhead a drive to
turn the power on to Florida Pow-
er to secure their new power
plant.
In addition to the decision to
actively pursue the plant through
personal contact, the Commis-
sion also agreed to extend an in-
vitation to Florida Power execu-
tives to visit Gulf County and see
the proposed site first hand. The
Board also drew up a resolution
to the utility, expressing full sup-
port for the project in any way
the city could be of assistance in
the matter.
DISCUSS MAUSOLEUM
The Commission revived dis-
cussion for construction of a
mausoleum here in Port St. Joe
Tuesday night. The matter was
seriously considered about a year
and a half ago, with people in the
business approaching the Com-
mission about putting one adja-


cent to Holly Hill Cemetery.
Tuesday night, Mayor Frank
Pate said there still is a desire

City Ponders

Water, Sewer

Rate Hike
The Port St. Joe City Com-
mission took the first step to-
ward raising water and sewer
Kates Tuesday night, with Intro-
duction of an ordinance to alter
the rates.
Experiencing a steady in-
crease In chemicals, labor and
testing, as well as other -costs
which go into the production
and distribution of the city's wa-
ter supply, the Board felt a need
to Increase water rates by 25C
per thousand gallons, hiking the
rate to $1.50 per thousand gal-
lons.
Water rates have stood at
$1.25 per thousand gallons for
the past several years.
Sewer rates will also rise,
but only because the rate is tied
to water usage. Port St. Joe has
always charged a rate of 80% of
the water charge for sewer ser-
vice. The percentage will remain
at 80% of the water rate. but the
charge per thousand gallons will
increase the same percentage as
the water rate because of the
method used for billing.
TAPPING FEES
Tapping fees will also be in-
creased under the new ordi-
nance change.
Water connections, where
there is a tap already stubbed in
the main, will be set at $200,
with an additional $100 charged
If there is no tap in place. All in-
stallations over one inch in size
will carry a surcharge for the
price of extra materials used.
Sewer taps will be estab-
Uished at a rate of $400 for new
taps.
To locate and uncover exist-
ing sewer taps for connection
purposes will cost $100.
TAKE EFFECT
The new rates will probably
not take effect until around Oc-
tober, when the new fiscal year
begins.
Law requires that every cus-
tomer be notified, in writing, of
proposed rate changes before the
proposed ordinance authorizing
the change is read for the final
time.


Stump fc
Like the first robin of spring-
time, the first politician of the
new gubernatorial election sea-
son showed his face in Port St.
Joe Thursday afternoon of last
week, making election noises and
campaign promises.
U.S. Congressman Bill Nelson
said he's getting an early start in
the campaign to discourage pos-
sible other Democratic candi-
dates who might get in the race if
he didn't.
Nelson visited in Gulf County
last Thursday, on a swing
through Northwest Florida, say-
ing he could renew Democrat's
faith in their party with his phi-
losophy. "I'm not a liberal and I'm
not a staunch conservative," he
said, in saying he felt he could
appeal to both factions, as well as
the vast number of people whose
philosophy lies somewhere in be-
tween.
Charles Whitehead, former
chairman of Florida's Democratic
party, until he resigned to help
Nelson in his campaign, said,
"Democrats in Northwest Florida,
who have been disenchanted with
the party for the past several
years, are now seeking us out to
1 help with this campaign."
Whitehead escorted Nelson to
Port St. Joe and introduced him

FLO
CO'S TUTION

THE STAR
PAGE TWO THURSDAY, AUGUST 17,1989


Ostriches

Put us on the side of the many who have voluntarily ex-
pressed to us an objection to the county removing the solid waste
collection trailers from throughout the county.
These trailers are too handy and provide one of the most effec-
tive methods our county has seen to combat trashing up our
woodlands, lonely roads and deserted clear spots with trash and
waste of all sorts. At one time, if a spot was clear and could be ac-.
cessed by a pick-up truck, it had a heaping pile of solid waste
cluttering up the scenery. The installation of the waste collection
trailers has eliminated that problem to a great extent.
We feel for the County Commission and their attempts to re-
duce tax expenditures. We want them to continue in this manner
and accomplish more and more of what they set out to do in this
endeavor. We don't agree that removing the solid waste collection
trailers at this time is the answer.
And, neither do a good many other tax payers. All of these tax
payers expect the Commission to use prudence when they spend
our tax dollars, but they don't want to see our county trashed
again, either. In some cases, those opposing the removal of the
trailers face the possibility of having their property become an un-
willing dump.
We don't think dumping indiscriminately removes the respon-
sibility from the County Commission so far as DER is concerned,
for the proper disposal of our solid waste in an acceptable man-
ner. We think the Commission will still be responsible for seeing
that waste is handled by state guidelines. The only problem is,
that with removal of the trailers, there will be a necessity to go all
over the county and pick it up off the ground and haul it to their
two dumps.
The only way the Commission can safely remove the trailers,
in our opinion, is to make use of private, or preferably public, col-
lection services to pick up solid waste throughout the county, a
mandatory activity. If folks must use the service and pay for it,
they will use it. If it is voluntary, you can forget them using it.
We think DER will hold the Commission more responsible for
allowing the countryside to become trashed because they have
not provided a handy receptical to place waste in than they will
for failure to meet any time-table for building landfills to specifica-
tions.
Pulling in the collection trailers and expecting people to han-
dle their solid waste properly is a twin brother to an ostrich hid-
ing his head in the sand.



Living On Credit

Well, our government has taken the first step to pay off the
$20 billions of red ink incurred by shoddily run savings and loan
banks throughout the nation. Or rather, it has taken the first
step to allow you and you and you to pay their debts.
Last week, President Bush signed the bill, which has its good
and its bad sides. The good is that it will keep many trusting peo-
ple from losing the money they invested in these S&Ls. The bad is
that those greedy operators who lined the pockets of themselves
and their friends at the expense of their S&L will get off scot free
of any responsibility in theirlrriesponsibility.
Another bad thing about the whole situation is that solidly
and soundly operated S&Ls, such as the one here in Port St. Joe
must live with the stigma these few greedy operators have foisted
on them.
The S&L situation isn't fair, any way you look at it. According
to the news releases we read, every person in the United States is
going to be faced with the responsibility of paying $1600 to keep
these guys from having to go to jail, or worse.
We have always resisted putting the few dollars we have man-
aged to save in one of those institutions which make all those big
development loans. We don't know beans about financial matters;
what investments will make money and which ones won't; but it
doesn't take a financial wizard to see when someone is tossing
his, or someone else's money into a hole from which it can't be re-
covered.
In our way of looking at it, This situation, plus the $5 billion
loan the federal government made to ball out the first installment
of this mighty bill, hiking our national debt, is one of the things
which caused the S&L failures in the first place: spending money
they didn't have. Now, we're paying off those debts with money we
don't have.

Poet 'Lariat' of the


Common People


August 15 Today is one of
the few times that I wish I was a
real writer. I'd love to tell you
with lofty words, spirited phrases
and great poignancy about a very
special friend of mine. I truly
wish I could rope what's in my
heart and make it dance across
this page for you. But you and I
both know that I don't have that
ability. So with apologies to his
family, I'm going to tell you about
him anyway. Or as Will himself
might have said if he were still
around, "Kes, don't let your
shortcomings get in the way of
your story."
William Penn Adair Rogers
was born November 4, 1879 on a
ranch near Oologah, in the Indian


Territory, which was later to be-
come the state of Oklahoma. His
father was one-eighth Cherokee
Indian, his mother, one-quarter -
- a heritage that Will-Rogers was
extremely proud of. He often said
that his ancestors didn't come
over on the Mayflower but they
met the boat.
Young Willie didn't take to
school. 'Three years in McGuf-
fey's Fourth Reader, and I knew
more about it than McGuffey
did." What he did take to was the
outdoors, running free, roping -
he's still the best man with a lari-

Will Rogers "took" to people. First
and foremost he liked 'em. His


well known, "I never met a man I
didn't like" was more than just a
clever phrase he thought up for a
stage show. It was a way of life
that spanned his 55 years with
us.
How could a man start out
pushing cattle in the Indian Terri-
tory, drift to South America, Join
Texas Jack's Wild West Show in
Africa, play Madison Square Gar-

cus, appear on stage in vaude-

A POET ONCE SAID, It takes
a lot of living to make a home.
That's true. It also takes a lot
of time, work and regular chores
to keep a home functioning, too.
If a home is occupied by only
one person, I can't see how that
one person can ever keep up with
all that must be done to keep the
home functioning. It's definitely a
two man job and even then it
takes a .lot of time to do every-
thing which must be done to keep
everything running smooth.
Down here at The Star's print-
ing plant, it takes the efforts of all
of us to keep everything in place,
and running properly. If it isn't a
sink to un-stop, it's a floor to
mop, an air conditioner filter to
change, the coffee pot to clean
out, the refrigerator to wipe off,
the commode to clean, light bulbs
to change, trash to carry out, new
stock to put up, etc. There is no

operating a Home Is Too A


end to things which need to be
done.
It's no different at home and
it's no job for just one to tackle.
As I get nearer to the accepted re-
tirement age, I understand more
and more why people will sell an
established home with a picture-
perfect yard and get them a small
apartment or a smaller home. It
cuts the chores down to size.

WHAT STARTED ALL this
was last week end, Frenchie bor-
rowed my car, got number one
son, Ray, to drive, and she took
off to Warner Robins, Georgia to
check up on her mother, who
has been ailing for the past few
months.
The reports she was receiving
didn't fit with what she had seen
the last time she was there and
with what she knew of her moth-
er's condition, so she went to see
for herself.
I got to stay home for the
week end by myself.


Well. modlly that a little bit.
Rachel was there, along with the
cats.
But, they were more trouble
than they were company.
They added to the chore re-
sponsibility.
It was nearly 9:00 p.m., Fri-
day night before I got through
feeding the dog and cats, carried
out the garbage, picked up the
dirty clothes, went to daughter
Carol's house for supper, cleaned
out the bath tub, straightened up
the mess in the laundry room
and put away my clean under-
wear which had been washed but
was still lying on the couch, wait-
ing to be folded up.
That's too much for one per-
son to do after he or she gets
home at night. When you, move
slow, like I do, it takes a while if
you're doing it by yourself.

I GOT IT ALL done Friday
night, and then started all over
again on Saturday morning.


luch for a S
Frenchie's stock of cat food
ran out Friday night, so Saturday
morning, I had to go to the gro-
cery store to get more. That's a
simple thing, but it takes time.
By the time you magnify this sim-
ple chore by 10 or 12, you have
dug into a day pretty deep.
After working a dog feeding
into this cramped schedule, Ra-
chel wouldn't eat. All week end,
she left her food bowl alone. I
guess that dog food didn't taste
the same with me putting it out.
Rachel pesters me for drinks
of water. If she wants to go out,
she comes to me to let her out.
She'll wait until Frenchie puts
out the cat food, then come
bounding up to me to be let out.
She acts, at these times, like her
need is drastic, so I let her out.
I was reading the paper and
didn't see Frenchie go out the
door with cat food. All Rachel
wanted was to get outside and eat
the cat food!
Over the week end, she didn't
even try to con me into letting her

ingle House Husband


out to get cat food.

I HAD MY HANDS full all day-
Saturday, just taking care of
things which needed to be taken
care of in order for the system not
to come to a complete halt.
There was a trip to the gar-
bage collection center in our
neighborhood, with trash which
had collected and shouldn't go
into the garbage. The cat food trip
to the grocery store didn't fill the
needs of the day for everything. I
had to go back again.
I had to shop for something to
eat during those times I wasn't
eating at the home of one of the
kids.
Frenchie would have been
proud of my Sunday dinner,
which I ate at home. It wasn't a
sandwich. It was something
cooked. I don't really know what
it was, except that it said "Gour-
met Entree" on the label. It was
shrimp, scallops, fish flakes and
sauce on some pasta. or so


the label said.
So, the meal preparation
chore wasn't bad at all. One
meal, I dined on a Pepsi-Cola and
a package of peanut butter crack-
ers. Delightful farel
I could have gone to the res-
taurant to eat, but by the time I
got the chores done, the pets tak-
en care of, the trash hauled off,
some yard work done and some
studying done, there wasn't time
to go to the cafe.
Frenchie doesn't do all these
things when she is home. I have
-my little routine and she has
hers, to keep the home fires
burning. She is one of those peo-
ple who never sits down, though,
and she does a lot of things, all of
which I had to do while she was
away.
But the next time she goes
away. I just hope she shows me
where she keeps the microwave
popcorn. It's tough watching a
baseball game on Sunday after-
noon without it.

A Story For Kids

(Odie the Dog)
Hi there! My name is Odie. I'm a dog. A boy dog. What's your
name?
I live on Marvin Avenue in Port St. Joe. I haven't always lived
there, though. Not too long ago I lived at a house in Dalkeith with a
family who lived there.
Want to know why I don't live there anymore? Well, the reason
is the people I lived with moved off and left me there, all by myself.
Yes they did and at first I didn't know what was going on be-
cause they didn't tell me, but I knew something was happening be-
cause they loaded up all their furniture and stuff and left in the
middle of the night. I never thought they would leave me all alone,
with nothing to eat or drink, but they did.
And, know what else? I stayed there a long time waiting for
them to come back and get me because I loved them, but they never
did come back for me. I waited and waited and I got awfully hungry
and thirsty and the fleas were so bad I almost scratched myself to
death. And I waited and waited, but no one came back for me.
Want to know what happened? Well, one day, after they had
been gone for a long time, a man came by in a truck to do some-
thing to the house and yard. At first I thought he was the people
who left me and were coming back to get me, but he wasn't. Any-
way, this man came that day and sprayed something in the house
and yard. I don't know what it was, but the fleas didn't bother me
as bad after he left.
When he started to leave, he came over to me and patted me on
the head. I wanted to lick him but I was afraid he might hit me. If
he had hit me I couldn't run because I was too weak from not hav-
ing any food.
He didn't hit me though. He just patted me on the head and
said, "Good doggie, good doggie," and then he got in his truck and
drove away. But, you know what? The next day, as I was laying in
the grass wishing I had something to eat, this same man pulled up
in his truck and this time he had a woman and two children with
him.
When they got out of the truck, they came right to where I was
and the boy and girl rubbed my head and talked real nice to me. I
wanted to lick them and show them how much I loved them but I
was too weak to raise my head. All I had to eat since the other peo-
ple left me was two grasshoppers and a toad frog.
Then, you know what they did? They picked me up and put me
in the back of their truck and took me to their house. When we got
there, they gave me a big bowl of dog food and plenty of clean water
to drink. It was so good that I wagged my tail for three days. They
even had a dog house for me to sleep in.
The next day, when I was strong enough, I played with the boy
and girl all day long. I would run and "fetch" sticks for them and sit
real still when they said "stay!". We had such a good time!
I was so happy because they took me to the vet and he helped
make me all well and they gave me a bath and all the fleas left. Now
I'm such a happy doggie because these nice people brought me
home with them.
But now the people I live with are moving and I'm scared again.
I hope they won't move off and leave me or give me to the dog-
catcher. I don't want to be hungry again and I've heard what hap-
pens to dogs who go off with the dog-catcher, they don't ever come
back.
Will some little boy or girl please get their mommy or daddy to
read this to them and get them to come and get me? I promise to be
a good doggie and play with you, all day long if you want me to.
And, guess what else? I'm even house-trained. I like to stay outside,

turtle thus far this year, without using.
TEDs," Wood said.
"Catching turtles by shrimpers is a
very small danger to the turtles. If we
thought we were harming turtles and
the TEDs would protect them and allow
us to reap a harvest, we wouldn't mind
putting them on our rigs at all. We
wouldn't mind pulling anything which
would work, but the things just don't do
what their supporters say they will do.
That's from a practical viewpoint, not
from a theoretical viewpoint," Wood
said.
In the meantime, the local wholesal-
er said his and other large boats are
shrimping off Texas and Mexico, trying
to stay in business. The small shrimper,
however, who operates locally out of lo-
cal ports has been put on the hill until
he can get some relief from the new
state requirements.

Governor Visits
Rotary District Governor, Don Gregor, of
Lynn Haven, paid his annual official visit to the
local club last Thursday, telling local members
what Rotary International is planning for its
new fiscal year. Locally, Gregor said District
694, which includes Port St. Joe, is aiming for
sponsoring five Paul Harris student scholar-
ships, as well as maintain all on-going programs
presently underway.
Throughout the world, Rotary now has 1.2
million members in 157 countries, including two


behind the Iron Curtain. During the past year,
clubs were established in Warsaw, Poland and
Budapest, Hungary. Internationally, Rotary be-
came co-ed and now has 13,000 women in its
membership.
In the photo above, president, Dr. Jorge San
Pedro, left, and vice-president, Peter Rosasco,

No Feelings for a Pet?


Dear Editor:
Saturday night somewhere
between the hours of 10:30 p.m.
and 11:00 p.m., our pet poodle
went outside and was run over by
someone in his own yard. It is
really very hard for us to believe
that someone could possibly have
no more feelings for an animal
than to just run over him without
any thought as to what they did
to the family that loved and took
care of him, then we wonder what
that person would do to a child
that might be inside their yard.
Maybe if they would have just
had the decency to have called us
or stopped we might even have
saved the life of an animal that
we really loved and had never

manager of Raffield Fisheries here in
Port St. Joe, says the lowly mullet is
coming in for its share of attention from
environmentalists, also.
'We have been notified we can't fish
for mullet in the Panhandle waters
with nets of less than 3 1/2 inch mesh
and can keep only those fish which are
at least 11 inches long.
The mullet, considered a trash fish
in most parts of the United States, are
the backbone of fish fries here in north-
west Florida and considered a delicacy
by coastal residents who have access to
the fresh caught fish.
Raffield says it is too early to tell
how the new requirement will affect his
business. 'The real season isn't here
yet, but I can see where it could reduce
our catch by 20 to 25 percent."
Sportsmen, using cast nets, would
be limited to a daily catch of 50 fish un-
der a proposal currently being consid-
ered by the Marine Fisheries Commis-
sion.

been a bother to any one. We
spent endless hours teaching our
pet not to leave his yard so he
would not get run over.
To this person we would like
to say, "Did you notice our little
dog was under the brightest
street lights in this town and did
you notice, according to your
tracks, that he was well off the
road in his own yard? Did you
ha&e something against us bad
enough to take it out on our little
dog or were you just having fun?
Such a large truck and such a lit-
tie dog.
If little "Bear" had lived he
would have forgiven you in "15".
It will take us a little longer but
in time we will. We will continue
to pray for you every day.

among many citizens to have
some such facility built here.
Mayor Pate suggested possibly
the city could consider placing
the installation adjacent to the
Old St. Joseph Cemetery on
property owned by the city.-
Attorney William J. Rish sug-
gested the Commission may con-
sider having the city_build the fa-
cility rather than a mausoleum
operator. 'You could use the prof-
its from the installation to im-
prove and care for your other ce-
metery properties," Rish
suggested.
The project was only in the
talking stage Tuesday night, but
will likely come in for more seri-
ous consideration in the next few
weeks.
OTHER BUSINESS
In other business matters,
the Commission:
-Heard input from Commis-
sioner Roberts concerning com-
plaints about loud playing car ra-
dios. "I had a guy call me at 2:00
in the morning the other day,
complaining about the noise and
asking if there wasn't something
we could do," Roberts said.
-Instructed public works su-
perintendent Martin Adkison to
prepare a work schedule for uti-
lizing inmates from the Gulf Fo-
restry Camp which will be made
available to the city on a regular
basis in the near future. Adkison
said he has already met with all

"You wanna come over to my

head home for refreshments.
Are you ready for the on-
slaught of these hungry stu-
dents? Prepare a treat that's in-
novative and tasty and you'll
keep the troops happy. If that
same snack can easily be made
ahead and is wholesome to boot,
you'll be happy too. Can one
treat accomplish both goals? It
can, if the treat is Golden Har-
vest Bars with Pumpkin Filling.
These delicious bar cookies,
bursting with fall flavor, are a
creative twist on traditional
"store-bought" fruit-filled treats.
Serve them with a glass of

Langdon Flowers, a Thomas-
ville, Georgia developer, asked
last week that a dredging permit
he had filed with the U.S. Corps
of Engineers, be deactivated.


Flowers had filed for a permit
to dredge a channel from St. Jo-
seph Bay into 'Tapper's Hole" last
year, for the purpose of providing
a boat launching site into the bay


on St. Joseph's Peninsula.
Flowers' application met stiff
opposition from local residents
and environmentalists from other
parts of Florida, fearing he was

intent on constructing a large
marina development at the site.
Flowers had made appearanc-
es at several civic organizations
here in Port St. Joe, saying he
was just trying to provide launch
facilities into the Bay. He said
that if needs and demands called
for a full-blown marina project at
some time in the future, he would
consider the venture at that time.
His request for dredging was
to re-open an existing channel
into the sheltered cove at the par-
ticular location and some boat
mooring facilities. His request
didn't extend beyond the channel
which is still in the area, but is
partially silted-in and will not al-
low boats to approach close to
shore on low tide.
The Corps said it will still
keep the file open for two years,
in case Flowers wishes to apply
for a permit once more.
Flowers must provide draw-
ings which illustrate the total
plan of development with the"
Florida Department of Environ-
mental Regulation before he can
re-apply to the Corps of Engi-
neers.

himself. He was just Will. He did
what all men that rise to
preeminence claim but rarely live
up to he never forgot his roots.
He was just as content to talk to
Joe Smith in Blytheville, Arkan-
sas, as he was to dine with Calvin
Coolidge at the White House. And
the important thing here is that
Joe knew it. No matter what Will
did, he was one of us.
And he looked after us too.
Remember the flood in New
Orleans in May of '27? Will was
there, doing benefits, giving his
own money and urging America
to help. Eight days after an earth-
quake rocked Managua, Nicara-
gua, Will was there, again, giving
his money and time, and asking
the world for help. During the
Depression following the stock
market crash in 1929 he im-
plored the people to hang on. He
sought relief for them. He chided
the leaders to action. ".... the
unemployed here ain't eating reg-
ular, but we will get around to
them as soon as we get everybody
else fixed up O.K." On the
inauguration of Franklin D.
Roosevelt, Will urged the whole
country to support him. The
nation wants action. "If he
burned down the capitol, we
would cheer and say, Well, we at
least got a fire started, anyhow.'"
On August 15, 1935. a smile
disappeared from the lips of
America. Will, who loved to fly,
had crashed and died along with
pilot Wiley Post, near Point Bar-
row, Alaska. He had finished a
picture and was off to. "see some
more of this great land and meet
the people."
We will never see his likes
again. Once asked how he could
get by making jokes about all the
prominent people of his day, Will
replied, "When there's no malice
in your heart, there's none in
your little gags."
I wish I'd a'sald that. I wish
we'd all live a little more like that.
Yours,
Kesley

Whiteflies On Ornamentals Can Be Controlled


By Roy Lee Carter
County Extension Director
Whiteflies fly, but they're not
flies. .Adult whiteflies resemble
tiny white moths, but they're not
moths either. Actually, their clos-
est relatives are the scale insects.
Like scales, they attack and dam-
age many of our favorite land-
scape ornamentals. On rare occa-
sions, they'll Invade our homes to
feed on house plants.
Whiteflies infest many plants,
ranging from gardenias and cit-
rus, to ligustrum and a number
of annuals. My information on
whiteflies was provided by Exten-
sion Entomologist Dr. Dan Short,
of the University of Florida's Insti-
tute of Food and Agricultural Sci-
ences.
Adult whiteflies are quite
small, only a sixteenth to an
eighth of an inch long. Both the

wing and body are covered with
fine, white, powdery wax. The im-
mature stages are flat, round and
no larger than a pinhead. They're
light green to whitish in color,
somewhat transparent, and re-
semble tiny fish scales. After
hatching, each nymph inserts it's
beak into the underside of a leaf,
and never leaves this feeding
point until it reaches the adult
stage.
There are three major broods
of adult whiteflies annually in
Florida. In the Gulf County area,
these occur in late March, mid-
June, and late August. They ap-
pear two or three weeks earlier in
the south, and about a week later
to the North and West. When dis-


turbed, adult whiteflies emerge
from infested plants in swarms
resembling white clouds. But, in
spite of their numbers, they
cause little or no damage. Howev-
er, the immatures can seriously
injure plants by sucking out vital
juices. If their feeding is uncon-
trolled, upper leaf surfaces turn
pale and affected plants will de-
cline.
Live soft scales, mealybugs,
aphids, and whiteflies excrete
large amounts of honeydew a
sweet, sticky substance that pro-
vides an excellent medium of the
growth of sooty mold. Besides
being unattractive, this black
fungus may retard a plant's

A method of locating cancer
cells has been so successful that
clinicians may use the same tech-
nique for "seek and destroy" mis-
sions within a year. When inject-
ed into patients, radiolabelled
monoclonal antibodies attach
themselves to specific cancer
cells, revealing their presence on
a nuclear scan. Soon these same
antibodies may be used routinely
to carry anti-cancer drugs direct-
ly to cancer cells.

"I believe that radiolabelled
monoclonal antibodies are the
magic bullet we have dreamed
about," says Jon A. Kotler, M.D.,
a nuclear medicine specialist at
Cleveland Clinic Florida. "They
have already proven their value in
helping us find cancer hidden
deep within the body. By using
stronger labels, we can alter the
monoclonal antibodies to actually
destroy cancer cells after they lo-
cate them.
The techniques of labelling
monoclonal antibodies with nu-
clear Isotopes has been perfected
over the past eight years. To date,
the antibodies have been tried on
a variety of cancers, including
melanoma, liver, ovarian, pros-
tate and colon.
"Cancers can be defined by
specific, unique antigens on their
surface," says Dr. Kotler. 'We
know how to make monoclonal
antibodies to target these anti-


gens and how to produce them
infinitely in large numbers.

'We have made the first step
in turning this diagnostic tech-
nique into a therapeutic one. Ear-


ly results are very exciting. It ap-
pears to be safe, effective and will
enable us to perform treatments
on an outpatient basis.
'The magic bullet for cancer
is within our grasp."

THE STAR. PORT ST. JOE, FL THURSDAY, AUG. 17, 1989

Two Cars Collide
Grady O'Brian, of 513 Woodward Avenue,
stands beside his 1989 Ford, which had just
rear-ended a 1982 Chevrolet, being driven by
Denise Tanner of White City. The accident hap-
pened at the intersection of Monument Avenue
and First Street Wednesday afternoon of last
week.


According to investigating officers, Tanner,
who was travelling south on 98, had stopped to
make a left turn into First Street, when the
O'Brian vehicle hit the rear of her car. An esti-
mated total of $2,500 was inflicted on both au-
tomobiles.
No charges were filed in the crash and there
were no reported injuries. Officer Terry Carr in-
vestigated for the Port St. Joe Police Depart-
ment.


Did the sky fall on the dino-
saurs 65 million years ago caus-
ing their demise, or did the
Earth's plumbing overflow?
Challenging the current pop-
ular theory that a meteorite
struck the planet and felled the
prehistoric giants, researchers at
Florida State University have de-
vised a theory that uses a mecha-
nism within the Earth to explain
how the dinosaurs met sudden
extinction.
Dr. David Loper, a professor
of mathematics and research as-
sociate with the Geophysical
Fluid Dynamics Institute at FSU,
says that a "blob" of molten rock,
rising from deep in the Earth to
erupt through the crust, could
have caused the mass extinctions
evidenced in geologic findings.
Most scientists agree, Loper
said, that during a span of sever-


al million years both before and
after the dinosaurs' sudden dis-
appearance, the Earth experi-
enced cataclysmic changes: vol-
canism, a rapid drop in sea level
and mass species extinctions.
'They also agree that some-
thing sudden and worldwide hap-
pened 65 million years ago," the
geophysicist said. 'There's evi-
dence of a very distinct layer in
the rocks, which has unusual
properties, all over the world."
But scientists don't agree on
just what happened to create that
layer, which has been dated to
the time of the dinosaurs' disap-
pearance. 'The trouble is nobody
has a theory that explains every-
thing," Loper said.
The 1979 discovery of iridium
- a rare element on Earth, but
common in meteorites in the
layer gave rise to the single im-

Volunteer Needed


Volunteer In Service To America (VISTA) is a full-time vol-
unteer program for men and women 18 or older who are
committed to increasing the capacity of low-income indi-
vidualsto improve conditions in their own lives. In Gulf
County, the VISTA selected will work with a volunteer lit-
eracy organization recruiting volunteer reading tutors and
adults with low reading skill levels. Must be public rela-
tions oriented and have own transportation. Position re-
quires a one-year commitment. VISTA volunteers receive
a basic subsistence allowance of approximately $440 per
month, comprehensive health insurance, vacation allow-
ance, and job-related mileage. All VISTA allowances are
subject to taxes, however these benefits should not affect
VISTA volunteer eligibility for Social Security, veterans
pensions, or-other programs.
Applications are available Monday Thursday, 9:00 a.m. -
12:00 p.m. in the Literacy Office on S. Long Ave., behind
Port St. Joe High School next door to the welding shop.

pact theory that a meteorite hit
the planet.
But Loper and other scien-
tists argue that a single impact
does not.account for the cataclys-
mic changes that occurred before
the debated sudden event. He
and his research partner, Dr. Ke-
vin McCartney, a former FSU
graduate student now at the Uni-
versity of Maine, think the lowest
portion of the Earth's mantle,
that part of the planet between
the crust and the core, could be
the culprit.
The portion of the mantle
closest to the hot core becomes
less dense than the rest of the
mantle, melting like the bottom of
a block of butter on a hot frying
pan. Loper and McCartney sug-
gest that molten rock, or magma,
from this layer rises toward the
surface through the mantle's
plumbing system.
Experiments designed by Dr.
George Buzyna, a FSU associate
professor of mechanical engineer-
ing and research associate at the
Geophysical Fluid Dynamics In-
stitute, demonstrated how the
layer could bunch up to form
blobs of molten rock. The blobs,
called diapirs, could follow the
pre-existing path, or plume, of
previous diapirs, and erupt on
the surface as volcanism, Loper
said.
Loper theorizes that a diapir
not connected with a pre-existing
plume grows very large as it rises
at a slower rate over millions of
years. When it finally erupts
through the Earth's crust, it
causes widespread above-ground
disturbances. Such a phenome-
non, he said, could explain much
of the evidence scientists have
found about the time period, in-
cluding reversals of the Earth's
magnetic field, volcanism and the
rapid regression of the seas.
'The sea level fall itself could
explain a lot of extinctions," Loper
said. "Many marine animals live
on the continental shelf, and
when your home dries up, you're
in big trouble."
Although volcanoes that origi-
nate closer to the Earth's surface
show little or no signs of iridium,

Fortunately once the insects
are controlled, sooty mold usually
weathers away. you can get rid of
it faster by applying a copper
spray. In fact, by mixing copper
with an insecticide, you can solve
both problems at the same time.
Of course, you must apply
the recommended products cor-
rectly according to directions, and
with the right equipment, you can
use a pump-up, trombone, or
hose attachment sprayer. If you
use a hose attachment unit, be
sure it's designed for ornamentals
not lawns. Spray plants to the
point of runoff, covering the un-
dersides of leaves thoroughly,
and spray again about once a
week. This should solve your
problem until the next major
brood emerges.
Of course, you shouldn't
spray at all until you're sure
whiteflies are the real villains.
Many other problems can cause
plants to decline, so carefully ex-
amine the undersides of leaves
for the presence of the whitefly
nymphs we've already described.
If you confirm that whiteflies are
infesting your plants, don't try to
control the adults. After large
numbers of adults are seen, wait
about two weeks before spraying.
This two week delay will allow the
eggs to hatch. The small nymphs,

'There's good reason to believe
that there is iridium in the lower
part of the mantle," he said.
There is one major hitch in
the Loper-McCartney theory that
they must resolve they must
demonstrate that an eruption by
a diapir could have created
enough pressure to explain the
presence of shocked quartz near
the iridium-rich layer of rock. The
single impact theorists add these
microscopic fractures caused by
sudden and tremendous pressure
to their supporting evidence.
Though not usually associated
with volcanoes, scientists are
looking for evidence of shocked
quartz at the sites of large volcan-
ic eruptions.
"It might be that an unusual
kind of volcanism is needed to
produce this," Loper said. "The
last one of this type was 17 mil-
lion years ago. They don't occur
very often."

back to Port St. Joe. Ottis Lazlo stands behind his trophy catch.


Raffield Fisheries Spotter Plane


Crashes In Apalachicola Bay

Veteran pilot Nevin Stewart crashed Raffield Fisheries' Cessna 172 spotter plane into Apalachi-
cola Bay August 3. "I had just made my last pass over the fishing boat. I was trimmed out at 50
feet above the water doing about 100 knots, and all of a sudden I was in the water."
"I was thrown through the plane's windshield and then the plane bellied over and sunk within
seconds." It took about 50 stitches to sew up Stewart's hand, leg and mouth, but he sustained no'
serious injuries.
"I've been debriefed by the FAA and the National Transportation Safety Board and I still don't
know what went wrong. It was clear and the weather was good. I just couldn't believe it when I hit
the water."
A veteran pilot of 24 years, he believes that the crash was caused by either a downdraft from
the beach or a downdraft from a pair of fighter jets which had just flown over him.
The plane sank in 21 feet of water, about one mile west of Bob Sikes Cut and about one mile
offshore. The plane,was salvaged by Guthrie's Marine Construction of Carrabelle and taken to Port
St. Joe. The plane, valued at $20,000 according to Stewart, was a complete loss.
'"The only reason we salvaged it was because we do a lot of net fishing in these waters and we
don't need any more debris on the bottom."
'There's one thing I can tell you, I'll never forget the sound that plane made when it crashed."


A Fish Story


... Lady Lands


GOLDEN Large Mouth Bass


ROO AI
CONDITION


When Mattie Louise Anderson
told her friends about the fish she
caught in Lake Hatchineha, they
thought she wap delirious. When
she called the Florida.Game and
Fresh Water Fish Commission,
biologists suspected she might be
some sort of prankster.
When Mattie's friends saw the
largemouth 'bass, they couldn't
believe it. When Commission fish-
eries biologist Ken Denson saw it,
he couldn't believe it either, but
there it was. .gold, just like she
said.
'Mattle Louise had caught a
golden'black bass, one as gold as
any goldfish in any tank. But, ac-
cording to Denson, gold is just an
inadequate descriptive term when
describing any goldfish.
"Goldfish aren't really gold
but rather a bright orange," Den-
son.said. "That's exactly the color
of this bass, bright orange."
He said the very unusual col-
oration in this bass is due to a
simple biological phenomenon. Its
occurrence, on the other hand,
especially in largemouth bass, is
extremely rare.
Most fish are born with three
types of specialized color pigment
producing cells that give them
their unique color. These three
types. of cells are melanophores,
xanthophores and erythrophores.
When bass possesses all three,
you" catch a bass that looks like a
bass. But when a genetic muta-
tion occurs involving these pig-
ment cells, you catch a bass of a.
different color.
'The absence of melano-
phores and erythrophores and
the presence of xanthophores,
will cause, as in this case, a bass
to be orange," Denson said. 'This
particular genetic mutation is re-
ferred to as 'xanthicism'."
The improbability of a fisher-
man ever catching or even seeing
a xanthic bass is astronomical -
even if the fisherman goes fishing'
every day for' centuries. Only a
few biologists with the' Commis-
sion can even claim to have ever
seen one, much less ever handled
one. In fact, the Commission pro-
duces millions of bass every year
at its Richloam Hatchery and sci-
entists there have yet to observe a
single xanthic bass among the
fingerlings.
Although the likelihood of
ever seeing an orange bass is re-
mote, at best, catching a 2 1/2
q pound adult xanthic bass is even
more amazing, Denson said.


"Bright orange is not a good
color for a fish trying to live in a
world where survival depends on
camouflage and large numbers,"
Denson said. "An orange bass
certainly can't blend in with its
surroundings, and no matter how
many fingerling bass are in a
school, it's the orange one that
predators notice first.
"Even when they get too big to
be eaten by other fish, they still
stand out to larger predators like
eagles, otters and ospreys," Den-
son said. 'They just don't have
much of a chance."
As improbable as it is for a
xanthic bass to reach harvestable
size, it's. even more improbable
that a fisherman will hook and
land one.
According to Mattie, she had
seen the "gold fish" on an earlier
fishing excursion as it swam by
with a school of other bass.
Despite her surprise at the
catch, Mattie had planned to re-
lease her prize but the hook was-
too deeply imbedded in its stom-
ach for it to survive. Rather than
release such an unusual and
mortally wounded fish, she decid-
ed to have the "golden bass"
mounted.
"Besides, who would believe a
fish story like this without proof?"
she figured.
So, what bait does one choose
to go after a "golden bass?" Ac-
cording to the only one known to
have taken one in recent times,
Mattie Louise Anderson, a "gold-
en shiner."
Makes sense.

Shark 100 Club Is Organizing


The Shark Booster Club is currently getting the "Shark 100


NDa4


Club" underway for the second
year. It was established last year
to aid the total sports program at
Port St. Joe High School.
With proceeds from last year,
an 'ice machine was purchased
for the athletic department, and a
fish fry was funded for the athlet-
ic department. All ticket revenues
from the fish fry were given to
each sport selling tickets. Over
$2,813.50 was donated to the
various sports from the proceeds


of the fish fry. This year the Club
hopes to purchase a commercial
grade video recorder, along with a
monitor, editing machine and
VCR.
Each member, by donating
$100, receives reserve parking at
all home football games, a vehicle
tag, embroidered hat, listing on
all programs of sports, and listing
on a billboard displayed at each
sports facility.
Anyone wishing to become a

New Rules by Marine Fisheries

Mullet Rules Proposed


The Marine Fisheries Com-
mission agreed on all the major
issues of the proposed mullet
rule, but the Commission was not
able to decide on the rule's pre-
cise language.
The Commission tabled any
action, on the rule until it recon-
venes in September.
The mullet rule was jointly
drafted by the MFC, the Orga-
nized Fishermen of Florida and
the Southeast Fisheries Associa-
tion.
The proposed rule, drafted on
August 4 would establish:
mullet as a restricted spe-
cies, thereby repealing all general
and special acts inconsistent with
this designation.
an 11 inch minimum size
limit for commercial fishermen,
with a 10% allowance by weight
for undersized fish.
a 50 fish daily limit, per per-
son, for recreationally taken mul-
let.
a 3 inch minimum net size
limit during all times other than
roe season.
closed roe seasons in differ-
ent areas of the state. In the Pan-
handle, the commercial roe sea-
son will be from October 1 to
November 30 each year. During
this season, restrictions call for a
3 1/2 inch minimum net size and
prohibits weekend harvest be-
yond the 50 fish daily bag limit.
Commercial harvests will be pro-
hibited beyond three miles from
shore.
The Commission also passed
a controversial measure that
would allow commercial harvest-
ers to use power assisted gear
nets during roe season. Conser-
vationists and recreational fisher-
men have filed legal challenges
against that provision, claiming it
gives commercial fishermen an
unfair advantage.


However, the MFC decided
that power gears can be used
only in Manatee and Sarasota
counties while the Department of
Natural Resources studies the is-
sue.
No studies indicate that mul-
let, Florida's most plentiful fish,
is in any danger of being over


harvested. But, fisheries experts
maintain that the demand for
mullet roe in foreign markets has
put the fish in dander. The net ef-
fect of the proposed rule will de-
crease the mullet harvest by an
estimated 20%.
While mullet is the king of


Turtle Device In Effe


The Governor and Cabinet
approved an emergency rule Au-
gust 8 which requires the use of a
qualified turtle excluder device in
any trawl vessel 25 feet or greater
in length in any offshore waters.
The rule prohibits possession of a
trawl rigged for fishing that does
not have a qualified turtle exclud-
er device aboard any vessel 25
feet or greater in length in off-
shore waters. Any person operat-
ing a fishing trawl from a vessel
less than 25 feet in length in off-
shore waters will not be required.
to use a TED as long as each tow
time is limited to 90 minutes.
This rule became effective
Wednesday, August 9. However,
a legal challenge to the emergen-
cy rule is anticipated.
All sea turtles that occur in
Florida waters are listed as en-
dangered or threatened species
under the Federal Endangered
Species Act of 1973. Because of
the prevalence of sea turtles in
most areas of Florida during most
of the year, the Department of
Natural Resources recommended
that the Commission adopt a rule
requiring the use of TEDs in all
trawls in Florida waters, year-
round.

device" or "'TED" means: any one

Being Optimistic About Pessimistic Situations

Your Attitude Can Affect Every Part of Your Personality.. .How's Yours?


One day last week. the "Born
Loser" comic strip had a charac-
ter who said, "I am an optimist I
maintain that we live in the best
of all possible worlds." The sec-
ond character responded re-

'The sAme 'fActs, or sets or cir-

opposite attitudes.
An attitude Is a condition of
the heart that affects every part of


The positive attitude is enthusias-
tic; interested, and eager. The In-
different attitude is noncommit-
tal, inattentive, or apathetic. The
negative attitude is disapproving,
prohibiting, and denying.
In life, you must make each
decision on the basis of one of
these stances. Even when you

indifferent opinion. Attitudes can-

ine the attitudes of other people.
Try to determine which. categories
people are functioning within. Are
they positive, indifferent, or nega-

Are there occasions when
each of these attitudes is appro-

are counterproductive? What atti-

Next week we will look at
some of the things we assume to

used as the criteria for decision

I Toward Understanding I


your personality. Attitudes
change the way we see the world.
They literally alter the courses of
our lives.
There is only one world, and
we share it with a diverse horde
of others. Each member of our
race has a significant life to live.
Each of those lives will be en-
hanced or depreciated by the atti-
tudes of the individual.
Though we are all living in
the same global environment,
each of us has a unique environ-
ment of our own. Everyone has
his or her own way of looking at
things_- -
* There is only one you. And
you are responsible for the way
you see life. No one else can be
responsible for your decisions. No
one else can be given credit for
your achievements. And no one
else can be blamed for your mis-
takes.
Attitudes may be classified as
positive, indifferent, and negative.

The words you choose reveal
your attitudes. For instance, the
media prefer to, call the Pro-Life
movement the anti-abortion force.
It is clear to any perceptive per-
son that the commentators are
subtly using their linguistic skills
to influence the audience. They
do this because they have an atti-
tude which has already colored
their own opinions. Their desire
is to induce the listener toward a
specific conclusion. To be effec-
tive, they must do this without
appearing to manipulate.
