Four Races In Run-Off


Supervisor ofElections, Cora Sue Robinson, Swamps Foes


Gulf County sent nearly 53%
of its voters to the polls in the pri-
mary election on a perfect day
Tuesday, with only one question
on the ballot being finally settled
with the first primary effort.
A total of 7,785 were regis-
tered to vote and 4,092 actually
cast ballots in the election.


Raffield Says Charges Still A Mystery


A federal grand jury returned
an 11-count indictment Wednes-
day against a Port St. Joe busi-
ness, Raffield Fisheries and its
manager, Gene Raffield.

Veteran McDaniel
Wewa Election Winner
Thomas McDaniel won re-
election for the umpteenth time
to the City Commission in Wewa-
hitchka, in balloting Tuesday.
McDaniel defeated Eric Ham-
mond in Hammond's initial bid
for elective office. McDaniel re-
ceived 308 votes, including ab-
sentees to win his victory and
Hammond polled 280 votes, in-
cluding absentees.
McDaniel will begin his new
term of office with the first meet-
ing of the Commission in Octo-
ber. The term is for two years.


The charges listed in a faxed
message to The,Star, included:
-Conspiracy to obstruct an
administrative proceeding before
the EDA, an arm of the U.S. Com-
merce Department;
-Conspiracy to obstruct a
federal grand jury;
-Conspiracy to use false
documents In a matter -before the
United States;
-Three counts of obstructing
an administrative proceeding;
-Obstructing a federal grand
Jury;
-Four counts of using false
documents in a matter before the
United States.
Raffleld told The Star Tuesday
afternoon, "I still haven't been
served with any kind of notice in
this matter. I don't know what it
is all about. I have never been
called by a grand jury. So far as I
know, I haven't been investigated


by any grand jury. The first I
knew of the matter was when the
News-Herald called me Wednes-
day evening."
When informed the U.S. At-
torney in Pensacola had sent out
fax messages to The Star and ap-
parently, the News-Herald
Wednesday afternoon around
5:00 p.m., Rafield said,' "They
never sent one to me."
Raffleld said he contacted his
attorney immediately when he
read the account in the newspa-
pers to try to get an explanation,
but his attorney knew nothing
about the charges either. Since
then Raffleld said his attorney
has been in touch with the U.S.
Court's attorney on Monday, to
get an explanation. "So far, we're
still in the dark about the charg-
es. So far as I know, I have done
nothing wrong," Raffield said.


The only clear winner to come
out of the balloting Tuesday, was
Supervisor of Elections, Cora Sue
Robinson. She won approval of
her third term in office by besting
opponents Phyllis Beaman and
Patricia Blaschum. Robinson had
2,590 votes, or 60.66% of the to-
tal votes cast in her election, to
934 for Beaman and 658 for 13as-
chum.
RACES UNDECIDED
All other local contests on the
ballot were headed for a second
primary on October 1.
All of the incumbent commis-
sioners, with the exception of
James Hanlon, has an opponent
breathing down their necks after
the first primary votes were
counted.
Hanlon missed facing a sec-
ond primary election by only 12
votes. Hanlon polled 484 votes in
'. th& Tuesday's election. His oppo-
nents, Helen Ramsey and Paul
Sewell garnered 246 and 250
votes, respectively. Sewell will
face Hanlon in the run-off.
In other elections, Jessie V.
Armstrong's 188 votes gave him
the lead in a field of six candi-
dates in the District 1 County
Commission race. Mary Ellen
Gortman, with her 169 votes will
be his opposition in October. Oth-
er candidates in the race were

mary election will face Indepen-
dent candidate, Bill Quarles, Jr.,

tween Bill Grant, Hugh Brother-
ton and Rob Quartel.

Gulf County Sends Food and Comfort

to Homestead/Miami Victims of Hurricane Andrew


Gulf County has been industriously answering the call for
help from the Miami/Homestead area this week; gathering up
supplies to be shipped to the devastated area to give relief to the
hurricane victims who survived Hurricane Andrew, as it
slammed across the state on its way to the Gulf of Mexico.

Last Thursday a collection of food was initiated by the three
civic clubs in the City and evolved into a community-wide effort
to fill a trailer van full of food, toilet articles, survival materials,
water and other necessities needed by a devastated people.
The Fire Station was the gathering place for the relief sup-
plies to be collected and packed for shipment. Volunteers
showed up to do the packing work and sorting. Nobody kept
schedules, but there was always a team present, every day, from
Wednesday until early afternoon Monday, when the trailer final-


ly was packed full and moved out for south Florida.
In their Sunday morning worship Rev. Dan Duncan, pastor
of Long Avenue Baptist Church, announced the church was col-
lecting food for south Florida and by the time for the evening
service, a 15-passenger van and a U-Haul trailer was filled with
supplies. After church, Liba Monteiro, Tommy Ford, Mrs. Mon-
teiro and Mrs. Bobby Jackson, took off to Homestead with the
load for a non-stop round trip. Oak Grove Assembly of God
Church sent their van loaded with food for the survivors. Port St.
Joe Elementary School filled a pick-up truck with canned food
and sent it south.
There were other acts of assistance by the people of Port St.
Joe to answer a call for help, but The Star was not notified of the
specific instances.
Nobody asked for recognition. They just helped.

4 and Tommy Simmons, load a trailer with food Monday.

Expert

The calling in of an expert to give recommendations on how
to most effectively handle, store, bale, or sell recyclable products
can be a big asset to Gulf County in days to come. We suggested
something similar to this a few weeks ago as a solution which
could save Gulf County money and make collections more effi-
cient for everyone.
It's obvious the County, Port St. Joe and Wewahitchka can't
all collect cans with any sort of economy. The same goes for
glass, plastics, etc. But, one government agency doing the bit for
recycling he is best suited to do and the program handled in this
way all over the County, Gulf County and its citizens can do its
part without an undue burden on anyone.
Thus far, only the City of Port St. Joe has gotten into recy-
cling with any effectiveness, and it's only scratching the surface.
They're meeting all sorts of roadblocks in getting rid of the mate-
rial. It's becoming a glut on the market. There are markets out
there; the trick is to find the best one to meet your needs.
The County Commission's hiring of a consulting firm to set
up a program can probably assist in getting rid of the product,
also.
The State of Florida is beginning to make moves like they are
going to take the recyclable products and get rid of them for the
entire state at one time. In that kind of volume, there is probably
a market ofut there somewhere eager to get scrap glass, alumi-
num, plastics, etc. Who knows, they might even find a use for
old tires and remove that problem from our waste stream.
When all this recycling gets into full swing, we can see the in-
cindrators over the state begin to woo the municipalities for their
garbage to burn. Most of them are depending on the steam the
burning generates to pay for part of the cost of burning.
In the meantime, Gulf and other counties in the state have
until 1995, which is just two and a half years into the future, to
remove at least 30% from the waste stream through recycling.
With the rate of Florida's growth, that percentage will probably
be nearer 50% of today's load by the time the deadline gets here.
When we were serving on the City Commission several years
ago, we were attending a League of Cities meeting in the vicinity
of Miami. As a demonstration, a company took us on a trip to
see a waste recovery plant in action, turning garbage into meth-
ane gas. That was at least 20 years ago, before recycle became a
buzzword or a way of life. That south Florida city had the materi-
al for the -recovery unit above aground--100 feet above-in a
huge pile which covered five acres. That was only part of that
county's solid waste. So you can imagine the problem solid
waste is becoming.
Let's hope Gulf is soon to recover some of the tremendous ex-
pense of handling the product, through not having to handle it
to the point of disposal.


A Helping Hand
Gulf County citizens remember "Kate" back In 1985 and the
misery and inconvenience it caused us. We remember being
without electric power for several days. We remember the town
Being in disarray for weeks afterward and the monumental
iclean-up process which followed "Kate's" visit. We didn't have
tthe destruction of property 'they experienced In south Florida
and for that we were grateful.
A house burned, several were damaged, high tides pushed
water into several homes, felled trees were everywhere.
But the thing we remembered most were the strangers who
came to help and sent food and assistance. They didn't know us
and we didn't know them. But those people responded and oper-
ated self-contained trailers to prepare hot meals for as long as
they were needed. People sent generators to keep freezers run-
ning and ice for parched throats and workmen to help get the
electricity back in operation. People helped us get through a dif-
ficult time.
This week, Port St. Joe and Gulf County repaid that debt of
kindness and unselfish aid toward the victims of "Andrew" in
the Homestead area. Churches sent vans loaded with food, wa-
ter, charcoal and toilet articles. Students of at least one school
collected a pick-up truck full with of food. The community band-
'ed together to completely fill a 40-foot trailer with food and items
iof necessity, to send to south Florida.
We know our contribution didn't heal the need and the suf-
fering in that unfortunate section of our state, but it did express
our sympathies for their plight and just possibly it was a wel-
come sight to several citizens of the Homestead and the Miami
area.
The Bible says doing good for others brings the giver a bless-
ing. It was a blessing to be able to repay kindness with kind-
ness.

ler Down with Kes \


Hats I Have Known


I don't remember my first
hat. I hope it wasn't that "little
slugger" baseball cap when I was
four months old. If Mother put
one of those things on me, merci-
fully, I have forgotten it. I see
grown-ups today that are having
a tough time adjusting to the nor-
mal practices of life as we know it
and I can't help but think, when
they were babies someone forced
them to wear one of those little
slugger caps.
A hat is a wonderful thing. It
sets the tone. It allows you to be
you. It's a statement about who


you are. It also, on occasion.
keeps the sun out of your eyes.
You can beat off mosquitoes with
t11. Ifa friend at the service station
tells you a good one. you can kick
your hat back and roar with
laughter. When the guy with the
knife attacks, you can throw your
hat in his face to confuse him
while you're working around to
get the sun at your back. If your
little brother has aggravated you
all day but your Dad has said
don't lay a hand on him, why,
you can whup him severely about
the head and shoulders by hold-
ing the brim firmly in your
hand......
Yes sir, you can't beat a good
hat. But you can't let your Moth-
er do your selecting. You know
what I mean? There's a hat for
every head. But selection ahh,
selection is the key. You've got to
find the one that works for you.
Clint Eastwood was just another


tall. strapping, semi-good looking.
run of the mill. going no where
actor until he put on "that hat"
back in 1967.
My favorite hal in the early
days was a black felt cowboy hat.
It had a lacing that went around
the outer edge and a drawstring
that I would snug up under my
chin when I had Trigger or Silver
or Champion going full out. I
loved that hat. I rolled over cliffs
in it, I jumped out of trees, I
cleaned up Dodge city, I rode off
into the sunset, I sweated pro-
fusely...... unless you've lived it,
you can't imagine how hot that
felt was in July and August. But
Roy didn't take his off so neither
did I............. And today is not the
first time I've thought of that old
hat.
"Next." My heart jumped six
beats. Mr. Bobby Jack was giving
out the new little league caps. It


was my first year. "Don't bend the
bill over too far. Kind'a get the
crown to stand up like this, put a
little crease across here, and
don't get it dirty or lose It. you
won't get another one."
"Yes, sir."
"And wear It proudly, you're a
Lion now."
"Yes, sir!"'
I turned that green cap with
the straight, plain "L" on the front
over and over in my trembling
hands. My first baseball cap. My
first real baseball cap. I'd made
the team! I smelled the cloth. I
still remember that new hat
smell. I cupped the bill just a lit-
tle, worked on my crease so it
would stand up and eased that
cap on my head with pride. What
a feeling! I was Joe DiMagglo, Wil-
lie Mays, Stan, the Man...........
Our high school caps were
made by New Era, good hats. If
you could get the crown like you
wanted it, it would stay there for-
ever. 'Course I guess the best cap
I wore in high school was that
batting helmet. I never will forget
the night that tall right hander,
pitching for Murray, Kentucky,
hit me on the side of the head.
That helmet caught most of the
blow. At least, that's what every-
body said when I came to. "Gosh,
Kes, you were lucky It's a good
thing you .were wearing
that.........."
I remember thinking, "If I'd
been lucky, Bobby Jackson would
have been batting."
I played four years in college
and never did have a cap that I
liked. I just couldrn't get one that
"fit". It affected my~play.
I had a Golden Flow Co-Op
hat years ago that fit just right. I
wore that thing 'til my wife near
'bout had a "fit" of her own. My
current "good one" is a Tampa
Bay Buccaneers cap. Now, I'm
not a Bucs fan and I don't really
like the colors but this hat "feels
good." I've got to stay with it.
I've probably got 25 hats. Ca-
thy allows it's more like a hun-
dred. Come by and see'em some-
time. I'll show you the one I'm the
proudest of--- t's a green one,-
.with a plain L ,and it's way too
small for me.
"Dad taught me years ago that'
you could actuallytell a person's
intelligence by the -hat they were
wearing. We were at the church,
it was Brother and Mrs. Hatcher's
anniversary or something. Dad
said, "Son, can you point out the
smartest person in this social
hall."
I looked'em all over good. "No,
sir."
"Look at Mrs. Quesenberry."
"Boy, Dad, she's got on the
ugliest hat I've ever no wait,
look at Miss Alice Faye Purcell
sitting right next to her, Dad.
Miss Alice is wearing the ugliest
hat in the history of the world. I'
think she must have It on upside
down!"
"Son, that's why Mrs. Que-
senberry is the smartest person
in this room. When you wear the
second ugliest hat ever made,
you'd dad-gum better make sure
you know who to sit next to."
Respectfully,
Kesley


Shannon Left Her Mark and Tonya Is Plowing New Ground


SCHOOL HAS started and
'even the college kids are mostly
all gone by now. It means chang-
es in our life-style and adjust-
ments at home and here in the of-
fice.
Grandsons have been around
to do the little chores it takes a
young, energetic man to do and
things are now all quiet on the
home front.
Here at The Star, we hire a
couple of DCT students and work
them all through the school year
and usually the summer following
their senior year. This year we
had a young man in the printing
department, helping on the press-
es, delivering printing, washing
down the presses, etc., and a
young lady in the front office
helping with the office supply
business. She checked in stock,
put it up, waited on people, did
little odds and ends and gossiped
with Carol when she was caught
up with her work.
The young people we had this


past year were both a pleasure to
have. We still don't know much
about Travis Ray, however, be-
cause Travis Ray has never spok-
en two sentences at one "talking"
since he came here last August.
Travis always had the same
cap on when he came to work
every day and his momma made
him wear the same clothes al-
most every day, to keep from get-
ting ink on another set of pants
and shirt. They got washed regu-
larly though, but that ink was
still there and by now he looks
like a Dalmatian with his spots
and all.


IT TAKES SOME getting ac-
customed to; working around ink
and presses. If you're not accus-
tomed to it, it seems like the
blobs of ink just jump off the
presses, onto your clothes, and
nothing you can do can prevent
it. But, after a while, you learn
how to hold an ink knife to keep
it from dripping on you and the
floor. You learn how to remove it
from an ink well on the back of
the press and you even learn how
to wash down the large ink rollers'
without getting it all over you.
Travis was just about to that
point. When he came here, I


could always find him by follow-
ing the ink footprints through the
back shop and at the end of the
trail, there would be Travis.

UP FRONT, WE had Shan-
non Smith. Shannon was a good
clerk and did her work well. She
was a cute little girl and helped
our business very much with the
young men who worked with the
businesses here in town. They
came after their office supplies.
Shannon was one of those ir-
ritating people who knows where
everything is located. You know
the kind. "Shannon, where are
the left-handed pencil sharpen-
ers?" She could put her hand
right on them.
"Shannon, where is the print-
ing ticket for job 709?" Shannon
could produce it in just a second.
The only trouble was, she also
put up the stock and nobody else
could locate it! That's the reason
Shannon didn't have too many
days off.


Shannon filled in as reporter
when something was happening I
was unable to attend. She made
pictures, periodically, and took
care of the peddlers on the
phone.
Now Shannon is attending
Gulf Coast College, studying to be
a dental assistant.
TAKING SHANNON'S place,
up in the office, is Tonya Plair.
We figured we should have some-
one in the office full time, now, so
we won't have a DCT student
there now.
I'm not real sure if Tonya is
going to work out though. She
hadn't been here two days before
she had done something to the of-
fice, which was a mystery to me
until I went up front to get some-
thing. Imagine my surprise when
it wasn't in the pile it always
stayed in. As a matter of fact, the
pile was even gone.
"Where's the stack which al-
ways stayed here?" I asked. "It


contained some important things.
What happened to it?"
Well, what happened to. it
was that Tonya had found a place
for everything and put everything
in its place. The organized may-
hem of the desk was gone!
Well to make a long story
short, Tonya is one of those "neat
freaks!" I don't know how this is
going to work. There has never
been a neat desk in this place in
all the 40 years I have been here.
But, there is nowl I'm going to
have to go changing my style of
doing things at my ripe old age. I
don't know if I can hack it or not.
I'M JUST BIDING my time,
however. Tonya 'may be a "neat
freak" and like to organize the top
of desks, but comes the day she
messes with Frenchle's desk,
there might be an explosion
which compare with Mount St.
Helen!
Tonya says she is not mess-
ing with Frenchie's desk.

Two Gone and


One to Go...
When my son left home for college a few years ago, I was
thrilled. At the time I saw reflections of my departure from home
and how happy I was that I would never have to milk another cow,
plow another field, feed another chicken or hog and never have to
split another block of firewood.
But it wasn't the work I was glad to get away from, I found out
later. Work was something I grew up with, so it was no big thing.
Besides, work gave me something to do each morning when I woke
up at five a.m.
Looking back, I now realize that the real reason I was glad to be
leaving home was I was ready to tackle this thing called "manhood"
and see what I could do with it. The jury is still out on that one.
From time to time during the several years I've written articles
for this space, I've mentioned this phenomenon (children leaving
home) and the effect it has had on different members of the family.
In one article (The Empty Nest Syndrome) several years ago, I even
made fun of parents who became depressed and despondent when
their children left the nest. I labeled them as weak and dependent
parents, while I vowed to be strong and unyielding. At the time all
my children were pre-teens and toddlers.
It has been my opinion that a man, if he is to enjoy any meas-
ure of success, must be tough. To me, the laws of the jungle dictate
and demand toughness. And, in my opinion, that goes double if he
is to be successful in business and family life.
Although I don't consider myself extremely successful by any
measure, I have managed to keep my head above the rising tide
thus far. I have always tried to be as tough as circumstances dic-
tate, but in doing so I have also tried to be fair.
But life has a way of keeping us on a more even keel than we
would like to be or think we should be. Let me tell you how Mr. Life
brought me down about 10 notches.
For many months, prior to August 24, 1992, I have known that
my daughter was going to leave home for college. As a matter of
fact, I probably knew it better than anyone because I spent a con-
siderable amount of time making financial arrangements for her to
go. Believe me, the financial part of'college will keep you running
and thinking, as you probably know if you've put one through col-
lege. '
For several weeks prior to her departure I had discussed her
leaving with my wife, several family members and a few close
friends. I related that I was sincerely happy that she was leaving be-
cause she was excited about going and looking forward to it and,
besides, it was that time and I knew it. She is a good girl and will
do well and enjoy herself.
I even bragged a little, stating that it will be nice to go to bed
and be able to sleep soundly before midnight because we wouldn't
be waiting up for her to come in. And maybe there wouldn't be that
terror that parents often experience when the phone rings late at
night when their children are out.
Life was going to be much easier for my wife and I with only one
left in the nest, I bragged.
On Sunday afternoon, the day before she left, I walked to her
bedroom door arid suddenly stopped. She was not home and as I
looked in I saw that her room was in disarray because she was
packing to leave. And there I stood!
At that precise moment the reality of her leaving hit me with all
the fdrce of an Andrew-type hurricane. My heart began to pound
and'a large timp rose nri my throat. A sudden feeling of loss con-
sumed me and mmyeyes began to tear.
Oh, I knew all the answers, that she would be back some week-
ends, holidays and maybe a summer or two, but a voice deep down
within told me the sad news: Daddy's little girl is gone from this
home and will probably never come back here to live. The reality of
it was overwhelming and devastating!
The next morning, the day she left, I waited until she was up
and called her to the kitchen table and told her just how I felt. I told
her I loved her very much and that I was going to miss her more
than she would ever know and if she ever needed anything to please
call; call me, day or night and that I would always love her without
reservations and to please keep in touch and let us know how she
was doing in school and on and on and on.............
When I. had finally finished, she looked at me and smiled and
said, "Awwww, Dad,,I'll be back before you know it. Pensacola isn't
that far away. Do you have some extra. money and a credit card or
two for me?"
Tharik goodness the last one in tfhe nest is a boy!

to the Editor

Commends

Committee
To the Editor:
I would like to commend the
Gulf County Democratic Execu-
tive Committee for conducting the
recent "Candidate Forums" held
in Wewahitchka and Port St. Joe.
The forums were worthwhile and
necessary in the effort to keep
voters of the county informed;
however, questions asked by the
committee were limited in depth
as well as scope. Overall it was a
great effort!
During the remainder of this
month and the entire month of
October, the Executive Commit-
tees of both parties have a chance
to contribute to the enlighten-


ment of ALL voters in a biparti-
san effort. On the November bal-
lot, there will be 10 Amendments
and Revisions to the Constitution
of the State of Florida, covering
such subjects as Suffrage of Elec-
tions, Finance and Taxation, Lim-
ited Political Terms, and Home-
stead Valuation Limitation. These
amendments and revisions are
not simply stated in layman
terms, but are indeed written in
legal jargon not at all common to
the every day voter and citizen.
This writer would offer., that
the Committees join together and
attempt to obtain experts or at
least highly qualified individuals
to objectively discuss the. amend-
ments and revisions in open for-
ums. The forums would certainly
contribute to a better under-
standing of these seemingly sim-
ple yet complex changes to our
state constitution. Of course, the
purpose of the forums would be
to simply describe the effect each
amendment and revision would
have on the state as well as the
citizens of this county. No at-
tempt would or should be made
to Influence a voter in favor of or
against any proposed amendment
or revision.
Wouldn't it be great to go into
the polling place on November
3rd totally aware and under-
standing the complex ballot that
will certainly face us? Imagine the


Police Chief Carl Richter said
his department broke up a three-
year-old outboard motor theft
ring with the arrest of three local
men this week.


Arrested, and facing multiple
charges for grand theft, dealing in
stolen property and organizing a
stolen property ring, were Mark
Andrew Gay, 26, of 123 2nd Ave-


nue, Oak Grove. He is charged
with three counts on each of the
charges except the organizing
count.
Charles Dewayne Brant, 602
Garrison Avenue; three counts of
grand theft and three counts of
dealing.
Cris Blankenship, 20, Port
St. Joe. One count of grand theft.
Richter said the trio had sto-
len at least eight motors since
June, 1989, valued at $31,600.


Chief Richter said more ar-
rests are expected and possibly
more charges will be filed.
The Chief said the men would
advertise their stolen motors in
an Atlanta, Ga., Shopper and de-
liver them when they received an
inquiry. "In some cases they even
gave a warranty on the motors,"
Richter said.
The FBI still may enter into
the investigation since the men
shipped the motors across state
lines to dispose of them.

Woman, Youth Bitten

By Rabid Raccoon


Gulf County is under a rabies
alert as the result of a woman


time that could/would be saved
in casting a vote!
The members of the Demo-
cratic and Republican Executive
Committees have a chance to for-
go politics and contribute to the
process of educating their fellow
voter. I hope this proposal would
be considered!
Sincerely,

Your Attention, Please!
Dear Editor:
As a 1991 graduate of Port
St. Joe High School, I would like
to submit the following poem for
your editorial.
May I have your attention?
There's something you must
know
Before making your decision
when to the polls you go.
We've heard enough trash, the
students have too.
Who reaps the benefit, the stu-
dents, me or you?
.Certainly not the students who
walk the halls each day,
And if not, what motivates to
conduct business this way?
Could it be grudges or. politics?
Regardless, we've had enough,
Instead of tearing down, -
what's wrong with building
up?
I know it may not warrant as
much attention from the press,
But who needs all the negative
trash? OUR SCHOOLS ARE
THE BESTII
There's been too much focus on
the negative for me,
Obviously, some aren't inter-
ested in the good I see.
Why not a pat on the back of a
child struggling with science or
math,
Or praise when one makes the
effort, yet still strikes out at
bat.
Our students sit back and ques-
tion, 'They're doing this for us?"
I can understand their amaze-
ment, after hearing all the fuss.
FOR KIDS' SAKE we need a
change.........someone who cares
all the time,
Someone to fight when things
are wrong, yet praise when
things are right.
Sincerely,
Matt Taylor


and teen age boy being bitten by
a rabid raccoon last Wednesday
night.
Doug Kent, County Environ-
mental Officer, said the bites
were reported to his office and
steps immediately taken to exam-
ine the raccoon for rabies. "We
sent it to our lab in Gainesville to
get a determination, even though
we positively suspected the ani-
mal was infected. The report
came back Monday, that the ani-
mal was positively infected and
the bite victims would be faced
with taking the anti-rabies
shots," he said.
Sheriff Al Harrison said the
victims, a housewife and a teen-
age boy of Highland View, were
attempting to control the baby
raccoon, after the housewife had
been given the animal to replace
a former pet. It nipped the wom-
an on the hand and the boy took
it and attempted to pet it into
submission. Instead, the animal
turned on the boy also and bit
him.
"Where there's one rabid ani-
mal, there's likely to be more,"
Sheriff Harrison said. He urged
people to be cautious around wild
animals.

Shark 100 Club Soliciting New Members


As the '92-'93 school year
gets underway the Shark Booster
Club is gearing up also, soliciting
members to aid the athletic pro-
gram of Port St. Joe Jr.-Sr. High
School.
The coaching staff and stu-
dent athletes recognize that their
level of success depends greatly
upon the community support
they receive. The Shark 100 Club
was formed several years ago to
do just that, provide support to
all 'of the athletic programs.
Through the Shark 100 Club the
athletic department has been pro-
vided with video recording and
editing equipment, weight equip-


ment, a washing machine for uni-
form care, and an automobile.
These items are available for use
by all of the sport programs. In
addition the Shark 100 Club pro-
vides a cook-out fund raiser in
the fall to provide direct revenues
to every minor sport.
In return for your $100.00
contribution to the Shark Booster
Club, you will receive a hat, seat
cushion, reserved parking at foot-
ball games and recognition on all
printed programs.
If you have any questions you
may contact Ralph Roberson at
229-6438, or Willie Ramsey at
229-8997 days, or 229-6343

Sheriff Al Harrison displays some of the marijuana plants
confiscated

Two Men Arrested On

Pot Cultivation Charge


Paul Dennis Wilson, 32, of
449 West Highway 98, Apalachi-
cola, and Charles Everett [Porky]
Thompson, 32, Bay View Drive,
Apalachicola, were apprehended
Saturday morning and charged
with cultivation of cannabis.
Gulf County Sheriff Al Harri-
son said the two had a marijuana
patch in the swamp near Lake
Wimico, which the Sheriffs De-
partment had staked out for a
few days before the two could be
observed working the plot.
"They had 250 healthy, thriv-
ing plants worth an estimated
$250,000 on the street," Harrison
said.


'"We observed them.coming to
the patch Saturday morning, and
took movies of them in action,
cultivating the plants, before our
officers revealed themselves and
made the arrest," according to the
Sheriff.
The plot was well concealed
in the swamp and was approach-
able from land and by boat. 'They
had come to the marijuana patch
by boat, Saturday morning," Har-
rison said.
The two were lodged in Gulf
County Jail on the cultivation
charges and were released on
$5,000 bond.

Coach Hicks Enlightens Rotary

Members About Football Team


Head football coach and Port
St. Joe athletic director, John
Hicks, spoke to the Rotary Club
last Thursday about his hopes for
the football team during the com-
ing season. Coming off a 1-9 year
and starting the season with a
new coach, Hicks said his main
job is to instill a sense of confi-
dence and faith in the young men
that they can win.
a'We can win against anybody
this year, if we play as hard as we
can every game. We will win a vic-
tory inside ourselves, even if we
do not score the most points," the
coach said. "The real winners are
the ones who lose. a game and
come back the next week and
play as hard as they can again."
Hicks said his staff is going to

and the best athlete they can be.
"In other words, we're going to
think 'success'."
WORKING ATTITUDE
'We're working on every
member of the squad developing
a positive attitude of approaching
the game," Hicks said. '"The team
is not going to be loaded with tal-
ent and not very much speed, but
we have some other pluses which
will overcome our weaknesses if
they.are utilized to potential."
The Sharks biggest asset this
year will be its offensive line. "We

AARP Meeting
September 9
The St. Joseph Bay AARP
Chapter 3425 will hold its first
meeting of fall on September 9 at
12:30 p.m. EDT in the Centennial
Building on Allen Memorial Way.
The meeting will start with a
covered dish dinner. Members are
asked to, bring meat dishes, vege-
tables, salads or dessert. Rolls
and butter, paper goods and
drinks will be furnished by the lo-
cal chapter.
A new board member will be
elected to replace Marvin Clen-
ney, during the business meeting.
If you like to think and talk
about the past, especially the
past in your lifetime, you'll like
the program to be presented by
Margaret Smith. Margaret has a
lifelong association with public
education in Port St. Joe and
elsewhere. Her topic will be, "Life
in Port St. Joe in the 30's and
40's." If you're an old timer in
Port St. Joe you can reminisce
along with Margaret and if you
are a new comer to the area, you
will be fascinated by the stories
Margaret relates.


that's a good size for high schc
football without being sluggish
and awkward. Our line can pro-
tect our quarterback a little more
this year and increase his effec-
tiveness tremendously. Our quar-
terback took a pounding last
year, and nobody can do their
best in that kind of a situation."
Hicks said the team would
still be forced to throw at least 20
times a game, but said the run-
ning game is improving. 'We are
good to adequate at most posi-
tions, but must play our best to
win against the tough schedule
we play this year.
"Our kicking game is good
and accurate, but not from long
distances. We can kick a field
goal with good regularity within
the 20 yard line, but we have
problems farther out," Hicks said.
'We're going to be working to
control the football in our games
this year. To be real effective, we
must keep the opponent from get-
ting the ball," Hicks concluded.
On the schedule this year are
Chipley, Wakulla, Rutherford,
Blountstown, DeFuniak Springs,
Florida High, Havana, Monticello
and Marianna.

ing up for the jamboree to be played Thursday night.

QUACK

DENTAL CURES


According to the American
Dental Association, Americans
spend an estimated $2 billion a
year on health quacks and
quack products. Denture (false
teeth) construction and repair is
one of the areas abused by
quacks.
Dentures fitted by unquali-
fied persons and mail order den-
tures, if not properly fitted, can
damage mouth tissues. Some
damage, such as excessive
bone loss, is irreversible. Con-
stant irritation from an ill-fitting
denture, if continued over a long
period of time, may contribute to
the development of open sores
and other serious lesions such
as tumors.
Persons in extreme discom-


fort from the ill-fitting dentures
tend not to use them. This is not
only a waste of good money but
could lead to shrinking gums
which will make the fit even
worse and eating without teeth
can lead to digestive problems.
Poorly-fitting dentures can
cost you more in the long run
when the damage they cause
has to be corrected. For your
health, comfort, pleasure and
appearance, go only to profes-
sionals when it comes to your
dental health.

Old St. Joseph: 1 of 2 Leading Cities

Lost Battle for Survival with Sister City ofApalachicola After Economic Struggle


THE RISE AND FALL OF ST. JOSEPH
On November 30, 1835, the "Saints" pe-
titioned the Legislative Council and again on
December 14, 1835, to move the county seat
to St. Joseph.
The Franklin Bank of St. Joseph was es-
tablished and Incorporated with a capital
stock of $1,000,000.00.
On December 14, 1835, the first sale of
lots began in St. Joseph.
From 1836 to 1841 THE ST. JOSEPH
AND APAIACHICOLA PEOPLES fought bit-
terly for supremacy as they were the two
leading cities in the TERRITORY OF FLORI-
DA and became known as 'The Twin Cities
of the Gulf' during their heyday.
When men of prominence and influence
engage in a costly undertaking and enter
into such bitter rivalries as did THE APA-
LACHICOLA LAND COMPANY and THE
PROMOTERS OF ST. JOSEPH the scene of
action will almost inevitably be at times
transferred to the political arena. The
"Saints", as they were popularly called, by
Legislative Acts and otherwise, immediately
attempted to retard the development of ,the
old town of Apalachicola.*
Capital for the development of St. Jo-
seph came primarily from the wealthy mer-
chants, planters, and business men of Co-
lumbus, Georgia, Marianna, Quincy, and
Tallahassee. As the city boomed, two banks
were chartered and several other banks had
branch banks located in St. Joseph.
The streets of Bay, Commerce, Palmetto,
Magnolia, Washington, and Columbus were
lined with wharves, business houses, ware-
houses, and spacious homes. Among the
large hotels built were the Mansion House,
Tontine, Shakespeare, Byron House, Ger-
man Ocean House, and the' Railroad Cot-
tage, the latter specializing in "La, Cuisine


Francaise".
Among the industries were a cotton
press, grist meal, brickyard, shipyard, and
an ice house to house thce shipped down
by sailing vessel from New England. Also nu-
merous were the cotton factorage and com-
mission firms. The city boasted of a race
track, "the Calhoun Course", with 35 stalls.
The race track was one of only four in the
Territory of Florida.
Without a peer In the promotion of the
new city of St. Joseph was the youthful edi-
tor of the St. Joseph Times, Peter W. Gautier,
Jr. Gautier bought the St. Joseph Telegraph,
established in November, 1835, by John
Baldwin, Publisher, in November, 1'836 and
changed its name to the St. Joseph Times.
With his clever wit and flamboyance The
St. Joseph Times soon became the most
quoted newspaper in the Territory and its
editor has been acclaimed as the best news-
paper stylist of the period. Gautier had
agents for the circulation of the Times in Tal-
lahassee, Marianna, Pensacola, and lola in
Florida, and Bainbridge and Columbus in
Georgia. It was largely through the efforts of
Peter W. Gautier, Jr. as an influential mem-
ber of the Territorial Legislative Council that
St. Joseph was chosen as the city -of Flori-
da's first Constitutional Convention. This ac-
corded St. Joseph a distinction no other city
in Florida can ever claim and assured it a
permanent place in the state's history.
Fifty-six delegates were elected to the
convention from every county in Territorial
Florida. The delegates assembled in St. Jo-
seph to draft a Constitution whereby the
Territory could be admitted to the Union as
a state. The Constitutional Convention be-
gan its proceedings on December 3, 1838.
The delegates labored diligently for 34 days
to draft the Constitution which was signed


Can Your Yard


Survive Hurricane?


It's hurricane season again
and time to take steps to reduce
the likelihood of damage to your
landscape should one of these
storms pass through your area.
The challenge of reducing storm
related damage to landscape
plants is compounded by the fact
that most sections of the state
4 haven't experienced a major
storm since the mid 80's..Many_
communities and their residents
have become too complacent. The
result is that little has been done
in the area of hurricane-plant
management in Florida.
The arrival of hurricane sea-
son signals the need to develop
some contingency plans to guard
our lives and property from pow-
erful winds and flooding rains.
Ornamental plants and other
landscape objects are especially
vulnerable. Our information on
this topic was provided by Exten-
sion Urban Horticulture Special-
ist Dr. Robert Black, of the Uni-
versity of Florida's Institute of
Flood and Agricultural Sciences.
During the 'storm season it is
especially important to keep roof
gutters clear of leaves, twigs, and
other debris. Drainage should be
at its best to cope with heavy hur-

ricane rains.
If you have hanging baskets,
tub plants, or large potted plants
on exposed porches or patios,
they should be moved indoors
ahead of the storm. Hurricane
winds can damage or completely
destroy both exposed plants and
containers. Other loose Items
which can be hurled about, such
as lawn furniture, garden tools,.
toys, and garbage cans, also
should be brought inside before
strong winds strike. In addition to
being severely damaged or de-
stroyed, such objects can become
lethal flying objects during a hur-
ricane.
While we all hope our state
avoids serious hurricane damage
this season, it's still very impor-
tant to be prepared. So, check
your home grounds thoroughly,
keeping our precautionary point-
ers in mind. If you detect poten-
tial dangers take corrective action
promptly.
When an area has been free
of hurricane strength winds, trees
can grow to a massive or unbal-
anced height and there is a possi-
bility of severe damage to them
and to structures near them
when a storm finally hits. Falling
limbs can cause considerable
damage to cars, house roofs, win-
dows or other objects they strike.
It may be necessary to reduce the
size of overgrown, neglected trees.
This will require severe surgery
and the tree will probably be ugly
for a few months whether or not
the storm hits. Gardeners who
have kept their trees thinned and
with a canopy in proportion to
the trunk will have only a minor
pruning operation. The order of

on January 11, 1839.
The St. Joseph Constitution became the
organic law of Florida when it was admitted
to the Union on March 3, 1845, as the 27th
state. Among the delegates were men des-
tined to influence the history of Florida for
the succeeding three decades. They included
the first Territorial governor, three future
governors, the first three United States Sen-
ators, five delegates to the Florida Secession
Convention, five United States Representa-
tives in Congress, and five members of the
Florida Supreme Court.
St. Joseph, prosperous as it was and of-
ten referred to as 'The Pearl of the Gulf' by
its promoters, was not without its many ad-
versities. The great economic panic of 1837
which swept the entire nation was a major
blow to the thriving young city. Yellow fever
brought in by a sailing ship from the West
Indies reached epidemic proportions in July
and August of 1841. The dread disease
plagued the city sparing neither rich nor
poor. Among the many to succumb were
prominent Florida statesmen, journalists,
and merchants. The city, almost depopulat-
ed, was struck by a severe hurricane later in
the same year.
The devastating hurricane of September
1844 completely destroyed St. Joseph.** Old
timers say there was an earthquake in the
Gulf causing a tidal wave that added insult
to injury.
It is ironic that the birthplace of the
State of Florida was depopulated and almost
abandoned when Florida was admitted to
the Union in 1845. By 1850, the once proud
and prosperous St. Joseph was completely
abandoned.

Extension Notes
By
Roy Lee Carter
Gulf County Extension Service


pruning is always the same, be-
ginning with the removal of dead,
diseased, and damaged wood,
taking out water spouts, cutting
out crossing branches and
branches that clutter the center
S-othe-tree, thinning out branches
to establish a well spaced frame-
work of branches. Keep In mind
that not all trees are amenable to
pruning because of their shape.
As a general rule, trees with co-
lumnar habits are less amenable
to pruning. The pine, sycamore
and Italian cypress are a few of
the trees that display this growth
habit. Pruning these trees will
cause major disfigurement.

Ware, who said the program will
augment and enhance the com-
pany's existing seismic database
on the 425-mile-long leasehold.
The company also has ap-
plied to Florida's Department of
Natural Resources for permits to
drill five oil and gas exploration
wells on the leasehold, Ware said,
pointing out that DNR is one of
several state and federal agencies
with regulatory authority over off-
shore drilling. The proposed drill-
ing sites are adjacent to Naples,
Manasota Key, and St. George Is-,
land in the Panhandle region,
where the objective would be the
Jurassic Smackover and Norphlet
formations that produce oil and


gas in northwestern Florida and
adjacent states.
Ware said Coastal has com-
pleted the environmental survey
required by DNR for the western-
most Panhandle location, Bob
Sikes Cut No. 1, and is nearing
completion of its response to
DNR's requirements and requests
for additional data on this permit.
He further noted he expects the
application to proceed from DNR
to the Governor and Cabinet for
consideration within the 'next few
months.
Coastal Petroleum Company's
offshore leasehold is a three-mile-
wide belt 7.4 to 10.4 miles off-

PROGRESS REPORTS
First progress reports should start showing up the latter part of
this week or early next week. If you don't receive one please call the
TAP office at 639-5394. Generally students start off well, so if your
progress report is indicating problems already, please follow up
with the teachers and attempt to. correct any early problems your
student might be having.
Of course, Friday, September 4, the '92 Gators take on the Lib-
erty County Bulldogs in the Jamboree at Apalachicola at 6:30 p.m.
CT. The Bulldogs are one of the strongest teams in our area this
year, so our rebuilding Gators will have, their hands full right away.
Then next week, the Gators open the season at home against Pana-
ma City Christian at 7:30. It may be a tough year, but stay behind
these young men -- they'll need our support more than ever this
year!
Last year's Axinuals are in, and if you ordered one and haven't
received it, you may contact Ms. Layton at school, 639-2228, and
we'll see that you receive yours.
Volleyball season is at hand, and this year the Lady Gators will
field a varsity and a junior varsity team. Please try to get out and
see some matches when their schedules are announced.
A new sport added at WHS this year is Cross Country. This is
distance running for boys and, irls that enjoy endurance running.
Coach Jay Bidwell has several who are working hard, getting ready
for competition.
The new fence closing the back of the school has managed to
upset a few people that use the track for walking. We regret that the
fence is necessary, but vandalism has forced us to take these ,pre-
ventive measures. A walk gate which is never locked is available
when the main gate is locked, and lights are being installed to help
provide security when walkers hust park outside the fence. While
parking outside may be a slight inconvenience, we expect the
amount of money to be savedby reducing vandalism to be several'
thousand dollars a year your:.tax dollars.
New staff members this year include Mr. William Monks, guid-
ance; Ms. Lisa Ingram, social studies; Mr. Eric Bidwell, Language
Arts; Misty Harper, exceptiIon. sudden educIonf anI Mr. Grady
Booth, carpentry instructor. jsget.to Jnow.theee saff members

WES Students Coming
to the Rescue for
Hurricane Andrew Survivors
WES wants to help the fami-
lies in Louisiana and South Flori-
da with hurricane relief. Please
send any non-perishable items to
the WES office. Let's all remem-
ber the hurricane could have just
as easily hit our area. WES will
be responsible for seeing that all
donations of cash or items will be
sent to the relief offices.
Thank, you for helping.
Memo to Those Who Ride Buses
If your child has to ride a dif-
ferent bus from which they usual-
ly ride, send a note to the child's
teacher. The note also needs to be
given to the bus driver. Thanks
for your help.
WES Ground Breaking
WES Principal, Jen-y E. Kel-
ley, would like to announce its
ground breaking for the new Me-
dia Center and ESE classrooms.
It will be held at 9:00 a.m. on
September 4. Board members,
the Superintendent, Architect
and other dignitaries will be on
hand for this much-awaited mo-
ment. The children have been all
excited since last week when the
heavy equipment came rolling in.
A few adjustments have had to be
made, but we know how to adapt.
Star Student of the Week
Britney Grice, the daughter of
Charles and Pamela Grice, is our
Star Student this week. She is in
Mrs. Nadine Whitfield's classroom
and her favorite subject in school
is 'playing.' When she grows up


Stevie is the son of Ed and
Lori Price, and Algy and Stepha-
nie Wade.
Supplies Donated
One of our former students,
Vanessa Rice Feltrop, stopped by
the other day to give us a lot of
useful stuff. We are always grate-
ful for supplies donated to our
school.
Vanessa's daughter, Amanda,
is a first grade student in our


she would like to be a nurse be-
cause "they help people get bet-
ter." Britney admires her Mama
and Daddy. Her favorite TV show
Is The Muppet Babies and 'the
Soaps.' Britney would like to go to
Disney World someday. Britney
said this about herself, "I'm a kid.
School is fun. I like school. It's
fun and all that kind of stuff."
Britney is fun, tool
Santa Claus Came Early
This Year
We hadn't even hung our
stockings yet, but still we were
treated. Kindergarten classrooms
got these beautiful, thick 9' x 12'
teaching carpets complete with
numbers, letter, and pictures
woven in beautiful primary col-
ors. They, along with first grades,
received giant interlocking blocks
and a table to house them. Sec-
ond, third, fourth, and ESE re-'
ceived new game tables and mi-
cro-blocks.
WES Student In Hospital
Stevie Price, a sixth grader,
had quite a bad accident on
Wednesday. He broke his arm
and had to be taken by ambu-
lance to Bay Medical Center. He
had surgery that same day. He is
fine and will be home soon. Stevie
was swinging at the time of the
accident. This was our first acci-
dent of the new year. We're glad
he's on the mend.

"At the Beach"
by Joey Lea
"At the beach I have lots of
fun. I find jelly fish, hermit crabs,
baby sharks and big fossils. I like
that place I go to. It is called Mex-
ico Beach. I also have gone to the
Great Salt Lake. At Mexico Beach,
I saw a shark down a sword fish
and a little baby squid. That's all
I'm writing."

Faith Christian News

By Brandy Williams
-I


It's back to school for students and teachers at Faith Christian
School. Students started back Tuesday, the eighteenth of August,
with an enrollment of 154, our biggest ever. Our teachers are excit-
ed about the new year. Mr. Fred Goebert gave them a lift with three
days of spiritual Bible teaching, and being the encourager that he.
is, has helped them to see that a great year lies ahead.
GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
We overheard a second grader who, while waiting to go to class,
asked, "Hey, where's Michael Hammond?" Well, our seniors may be
gone, but they're not forgotten. Our two seniors from last year,
Shannon Marie Cain and Michael Lee Hammond, are both busy
and have great new beginnings in their futures.
Shannon is awaiting the big day of departure. She will be leav-
ithg the eighth to attend Pensacola Christian School. She is unsure
of her major but believes elementary education is what lies ahead.
We hope Shannon enjoys college and that she will learn all the Lord
has in store for her in order to grow to be her best in her career
choice.
Michael is running for County Commissioner of District 3 while
also attending Gulf Coast Community College. As of now, he is
planning a career in law. We know God will use Michael in a mighty
way. Michael has already inspired us with his community aware-
ness, and we know that the Lord will help him to make the right
choices concerning his career.
Michael and Shannon, we wish both of you God's blessings and
that He will give you the strength you will need. We miss your
smiles and your laughter. Come to see us now and then.
NOW LET'S LOOK AHEAD
We are planning a cookbook this fall. It will be a money-making
project and the proceeds will go toward the purchase of computers
for the school. The cookbook will generate income through sales of
the book itself and through advertisement pages in the back of the
book. The prices for these pages are as follows: a whole page is
$55.00, a half page is $30.00,. one-fourth page is $20.00, and one-
sixth of a page is $15.00. In addition, there will be patron pages for
individual sponsors at a cost of $10.00 per name. Any business or
individual wishing to advertise, please call our cookbook coordina-
tor, Mrs. Kriss Heyer, at 648-5495. If you would like to submit your
favorite recipes please stop by the school office and pick up the
proper forms. We would greatly appreciate your help or contribu-
tions toward this worthy cause for our school.
